"It's Garry Shandling's Show"
I think FZ intended this as a musical quotation from This Is The Theme To Garry's Show.
But these guys did it much better than FZ did!
The joke about "It's Garry Shandling's Show" in "The Torture Never Stops Pt. I"? I think that was made since Flo & Eddie were guest-stars on the show around that time, and the duo considered rejoining Zappa in 1987 before dropping out for various reasons. I could be wrong though, but the episode they appeared in did premiere a few days into the tour.
Flo & Eddie appeared in episode 2-13 "Save The Planet", which was broadcast on February 5, 1988.
