Welcome back to The Toast and happy Tuesday, which, you know, Tuesday always feels like a fresh beginning, beginning of the week. But today is sort of the closing of a chapter. It is. My co-host today is Joey Kamaster. His fourth and final episode.
Joey Camasta 0:37
I'm upset about this. Now, when is she coming back?
Claudia Oshry 0:40
In the new year. So the show ends for the season this week. Oh. And then next week. There's no show.
Joey Camasta 0:47
Well, just did you order a third chair for me just to sit right in the middle?
Claudia Oshry 0:50
So I did.
Joey Camasta 0:51
Remember when Margo used to sit here and press buttons?
Claudia Oshry 0:54
Oh, I would love that. You know, I spoke to Margo yesterday. Margo also hosted a bunch of times. And we did a sort of roundup at the end, you know, taking a look back at a glance. And she said, you know, she got a lot out of her time here. Yeah. I would love to know, Joey, what have you taken from this experience, from your multiple, like what are you walking away with? A brand deal?
Joey Camasta 1:11
Brand deals, tons of PR. Yeah. A bevy of new toasty followers.
Claudia Oshry 1:16
Thank you.
Joey Camasta 1:17
And a new lease on life.
Claudia Oshry 1:20
And what is that lease on life?
Joey Camasta 1:22
Well, I'm just more confident. I'm more sure of myself.
Claudia Oshry 1:25
Yes.
Joey Camasta 1:27
I just feel accomplished.
Claudia Oshry 1:29
You look amazing.
Joey Camasta 1:30
It is so cold out today. It's literally minus 4 degrees Celsius.
Claudia Oshry 1:34
No, it's not. It's like 18. I checked.
Joey Camasta 1:36
I'm talking Celsius, though.
Claudia Oshry 1:37
Oh.
Joey Camasta 1:38
I'm not, sorry. Oh, I'm so sorry.
Oh, my God.
Claudia Oshry 1:41
I forgot I was speaking in Parisian. Yeah, they go Celsius metric system over there.
Joey Camasta 1:45
Yeah, but yeah.
Claudia Oshry 1:46
So, yes, it's negative four Celsius. And I hear you're wearing a shirt that you purchased in Paris.
Joey Camasta 1:50
I did, you know, I did a lot of vintage shopping there. And Western culture, believe it or not, is very, it's very big over there.
Claudia Oshry 1:57
So, I got, you know, some display from- Oh, you mean like- Not the actual West, like Western, like American Western. Because you have horses on your shirt. Oh my God, I'm cracking up. I thought you were talking about like Western culture. I'm cracking up. So you got that shirt at what, a vintage shop?
Joey Camasta 2:19
A vintage shop in the L'Amouré district. I got a bunch of stuff, and it's shit cheap there, too.
Claudia Oshry 2:24
And you bought me nothing, to be clear.
Joey Camasta 2:26
I have it at home. You have to come over. We missed our dinner party this weekend.

What insights does Joey share about his experience on the show?

Claudia Oshry 2:29
Well, you have to invite me.
Joey Camasta 2:30
I had a holiday party I had to go to.
Claudia Oshry 2:32
Yes, I got Joey over for dinner, and he wasn't available.
Joey Camasta 2:34
Who else came?
Claudia Oshry 2:35
No one.
Joey Camasta 2:35
Oh, so you didn't do it.
Claudia Oshry 2:36
Sometimes I like to just, like, pretend like I'm going to do a dinner party, but, like, I know I'm not, you know?
Joey Camasta 2:40
You have a big dining room table.
Claudia Oshry 2:42
Yeah, and I would love for you to come over and sit at it.
Joey Camasta 2:43
Yeah, I would love to.
Claudia Oshry 2:44
Now, holiday plans. Walk me through yours, Joey. Is that you and your boyfriend?
Joey Camasta 2:49
No, we're not. He goes away with his family every year. No, not at all. He goes out with his family every year. They have this big house they do with all the kids. Oh, where are they going? They go to Florida.
Unknown 3:00
Love Florida.
Joey Camasta 3:00
Yeah, by your homegirl. I love that. So I'll be home with my family. I do a Christmas Eve at my father's house, and we do the seafood special. So we do all the crustaceans and little fishies. And then the next day, now that I'm a mother, last year my kid was too small to really appreciate Christmas. And the holidays this year, he knows who Santa is and everything like that.
Claudia Oshry 3:27
And when you say your kid, you're, of course, referring to your dog.
Joey Camasta 3:29
Piccolo, yeah.
Claudia Oshry 3:30
And what is your dog's name? Because you call your dog.
Joey Camasta 3:32
Everything else. And what is the name? His legal name is Piccolo.
Claudia Oshry 3:36
Okay, what is that?
Joey Camasta 3:37
It just means like little in Italian.
Claudia Oshry 3:39
Okay, I forget that you're like authentic Italian.
Joey Camasta 3:41
Yeah, Piccolo. And then it's also a little flute and it just means tiny and small.
Claudia Oshry 3:46
So cute.
Joey Camasta 3:46
So I call him Peaky. I call him Tweaky.
Claudia Oshry 3:49
Does your family let you bring your dog home?
Joey Camasta 3:51
Yeah, I bring him everywhere. When you go to your dad's house for Christmas? Oh, yeah. He's my psychiatric service dog.
Claudia Oshry 3:56
Of course. So I have to bring him everywhere I go.
Joey Camasta 3:57
Because you are mentally ill. I'm mentally ill. So I have my psychiatric team review. And now I can bring him anywhere. But I don't like to push the limits too much.
