The Comedy Lounge, 2417 Bank Drive, 83705, Boise
Known for his sharp wit and engaging stage presence, he has built a reputation and crafted a style that’s equal parts edgy and endearing.
Arguably his most notable accomplishment outside of stand up is his involvement with Comedy Central’s “Tosh.0,” where he served as a writer and co-executive producer for 12 seasons. Gossling’s contributions to the show helped shape its comedic style and earned him recognition within the industry.
In addition to his work behind the camera, Gossling has also made appearances on popular late-night shows like “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and starred in his own Comedy Central special.
Following his performance at The Montreal Just for Laughs Comedy Festival, Gossling voiced the character Scraw the Vulture in Disney’s animated feature film “The Wild.”
Growing up in a military family that moved around frequently was paramount to Eddie’s ability to connect with audiences and find humor in a wide range of topics, making him a favorite among comedy clubs and fellow comedians alike.
When not touring, you can hear Eddie on the “Tosh Show” podcast, which he helps to produce in Los Angeles.
The Lounge has a 2 Drink minimum but, don’t worry, we have LOTS of options both with and without alcohol. Prices range from $3-$10. Get tickets here on the website! Due to processing fees, they are $5 more at the door!
Please arrive at least 20-30 min before show time to allow for seating, table service, and shenanigans.

Boise’s funniest comics. Intimate basement. Food and drinks at your table. Stand Up in the Basement kicks off the year Jan 17!
Stand Up in the Basement is back on January 17th, kicking off the new year with one of the strongest comedy lineups Boise has to offer.
This show features Andrew Kent, LJ Sullivan, Dustin Chalifoux, Montana Burke, and Derek Haydon — a hand-picked lineup of the best comedians in the Treasure Valley. Every comic on this show is here for one reason: they’re funny. No filler. Just killers.
What makes this show special isn’t just the comics — it’s the room. An intimate basement venue where laughter hits harder, servers bring food and drinks straight to your table, and every seat feels close to the action. It’s the kind of atmosphere comedy is meant for.
Past Stand Up in the Basement shows have sold out, and for good reason. If you’re looking for a fun night out, a packed room, and nonstop laughs, this is the show to be at.
Seating is limited. Grab tickets early.
