The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast | 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio | Gamut Podcast Network
Apparently, all it takes to make a normal morning completely fall apart is one Florida man, one unfortunate horse, several questionable bedtime habits, an expensive hobby or twelve, and a group of radio professionals who should probably know when to stop asking follow-up questions. Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where the news is already ridiculous before we get our grubby little hands on it. Things get moving with a Florida story involving a man, a horse named Raven, and behavior that forces Rafe to remind humanity of a very important rule: we do not have to have sex with everything. That seems like something adults shouldn't need explained, yet here we are. The whole disaster also inspires “Just Joe,” the imaginary product nobody asked for but everybody immediately understands. Congratulations to marketing. Please never make this real. From there, we discover another great way to destroy your dignity: hobbies. What starts as “I think I’ll try fishing” becomes a garage full of equipment and a bank account begging for mercy. Guitar, golf, aquariums, classic cars, cycling, coffee, gaming, woodworking, bowling and disc golf all get thrown into the financial wood chipper as the gang debates which innocent-looking pastime turns into an expensive lifestyle the fastest. Somewhere, a guy with 11 bowling balls just felt personally attacked. Then we crawl into everybody’s bedrooms—which sounds significantly worse than it is—for a breakdown of bedtime routines. Shower before bed? Brush your teeth? Journal? Read? Scroll your phone until your brain becomes soup? Sleep with the door open? Let the pets take over the mattress you technically paid for? We learn that Rizz can apparently postpone an argument until tomorrow and immediately go to sleep, which may qualify as either a superpower or psychopath behavior. Moon has to rethink his sacred nap schedule when the kids are home. Lern wisely refuses to bring her journal anywhere near these people. King Scott reads Nancy Drew aloud to his wife. Somehow, every new detail raises additional questions. And because this funny podcast refuses to remain in one lane for more than seven consecutive seconds, summer officially gets declared dead, Moon celebrates the closing of the swimming pool he barely uses yet still manages to resent, and the crew gets into the viral US Open mess involving a CEO snatching a tennis player's hat that was intended for a kid. Nothing says “successful businessman” quite like becoming internationally famous for fighting a child over free merchandise. It’s daily comedy, weird news, ridiculous personal stories, St. Louis radio chaos and pop culture commentary held together by sarcasm and whatever caffeine was available before sunrise. Basically, another completely normal edition of The Rizzuto Show. If you're looking for a funny podcast featuring Rizz and the gang taking unusual news stories, everyday arguments, celebrity and entertainment chaos, listener feedback and their own questionable life choices far more seriously than necessary, you've found your people.

Things start surprisingly deep when Lern talks about listening to Rafe’s appearance on The HoneyDew, where he discussed difficult experiences from childhood and finding comedy in darker moments. He explains the idea of turning life’s lowlights into highlights, everybody agrees that nobody escapes childhood completely unscathed, and for one fleeting moment this sounds like a mature conversation between emotionally intelligent adults. Turns out King Scott likes his coffee like he likes his women... According to former Starbucks professionals, black-coffee drinkers might enjoy torturing themselves, caramel macchiato fans barely want coffee at all, vanilla-latte people play it safe, Frappuccino drinkers are basically ordering milkshakes, matcha people might be doing it for the aesthetic, and macchiato drinkers know exactly what they want—and apparently want the barista to know that they know. McDonald’s fries enter the conversation. So does the Wendy’s Frosty, Taco Bell’s spicy potato soft taco, the Frisco Melt, Lion’s Choice, Dairy Queen onion rings, Rally’s fries, Del Taco, Freddy’s and more. Nobody reaches a universal consensus because democracy has failed once again. Things somehow become less appetizing when the crew discovers a Walgreens three-in-one product described as a douche, enema and water-bottle combination system. There are some household products where “multipurpose” is a selling point. This may not be one of them. The show then gets into a study suggesting men have a complicated relationship with dieting, including the idea that some men may respond better to “goals” and “challenges” than the word “diet.” Rafe offers his own theory after seeing wildly confident dudes criticize women online while looking, in his words, like a thumb melting into a suit. Poetry remains alive in St. Louis. And because the current calendar apparently isn't irritating enough, Moon brings up a viral proposal to replace our 12 months with five beautiful 73-day monstrosities: Jebruary, Maple, Jaugust, Soctober and Nissember. Is a 73-day Jaugust horrifying? Absolutely. Are we intrigued by Soctober? Unfortunately, yes. Then Tupac conspiracy content leads into a survey asking whether Americans believe they could successfully fake their own deaths. Younger adults are more confident. Older adults have apparently lived long enough to understand that the IRS, prescription refills and bill collectors are undefeated. Du Quoin, Illinois is having a rough week, and this one hits close to home. Massive downtown fire in Du Quoin. Multiple businesses were destroyed, including Home Lumber Company, BJ's Garden Inn and other properties along the downtown business district. Making an already difficult situation even worse, the fire happened during the Du Quoin State Fair, one of the biggest economic weeks of the year for the small Southern Illinois community. From there, September 3rd's collection of completely necessary national holidays introduces National Welsh Rarebit Day, which briefly causes confusion over whether anyone is eating a rabbit. They're not. It's cheese. That discovery leads directly to Worcestershire sauce, pork-steak marinades and the shocking revelation that Rafe doesn't own a grill. After talking with Tim Virgin, she introduces a potential reality-dating concept called Rock Hard Island. The premise involves eligible bachelors from St. Louis rock radio, women applying to date them and enough trash-TV energy to immediately attract hypothetical sponsors. There isn't actually an island involved, but that's apparently a minor logistical concern. Even more alarming: sales is interested. Then Lern takes over for Crap on Celebrities with a packed entertainment rundown. There's a documentary about late Rush drummer Neil Peart featuring Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and fellow drummers including Stewart Copeland, Chad Smith and Danny Carey. Rush is also headed back to St. Louis, giving Moon another chance to see a band he thought he'd never get to experience after Peart's death. The crew runs through villains ranging from Cruella de Vil and Scar to Patrick Bateman, Magneto, John Doe and Dr. Evil, proving once again that this daily comedy show can turn almost any entertainment list into an argument. Finally, Moon breaks down which music genres are supposedly most popular in different states based on search trends, with pop leading the country, metal putting up an impressive fight and Sleep Token emerging as a heavily searched metal act. We ask one of the great questions of our time: why is everybody bringing their dog to the airport now? After seeing dogs everywhere at LAX—and hearing two cats meow their way through an entire flight—the crew falls directly into a pet-themed rabbit hole that somehow gets stranger from there. The crew admits to giving pets updates before leaving the house, whispering compliments to one dog so the other one doesn’t hear, telling cats “I love you,” debating which pet is secretly the favorite, asking dogs what they want to watch on TV, and generally treating animals like tiny roommates who contribute absolutely nothing financially. That sends the crew back to 1993’s The Three Musketeers, Tim Curry as Cardinal Richelieu, Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Chris O’Donnell, Oliver Platt, and the gloriously over-the-top “All for Love” combination of Bryan Adams, Rod Stewart, and Sting. This funny podcast briefly becomes a 1990s movie-and-music appreciation society nobody asked to join. Finally, a listener asks a dangerous question for people who have spent years working in radio: what song have you heard so many times that you never need to hear it again? In other words, another perfectly normal episode of daily comedy from The Rizzuto Show. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

We begin Episode 58 with one of the great questions of our time: why is everybody bringing their dog to the airport now? After seeing dogs everywhere at LAX—and hearing two cats meow their way through an entire flight—the crew falls directly into a pet-themed rabbit hole that somehow gets stranger from there. First up, we discover where getting bitten by a dog can really ruin your afternoon. A study looked at dog attacks, insurance claims, exposure to dogs, and legal protections for victims to determine the worst states for dog bites. New York takes the unfortunate overall crown, while Florida leads when it comes strictly to your chances of actually getting bitten. Meanwhile, dog-related homeowner insurance claims are becoming wildly expensive, and mail carriers continue doing one of the bravest jobs in America: walking directly toward houses containing animals that absolutely hate their pants. Naturally, this leads our funny podcast into science proving—or at least studying—something most pet owners already know: we talk to our animals like they’re people. Not just “sit” and “stay,” either. We mean full conversations. The crew admits to giving pets updates before leaving the house, whispering compliments to one dog so the other one doesn’t hear, telling cats “I love you,” debating which pet is secretly the favorite, asking dogs what they want to watch on TV, and generally treating animals like tiny roommates who contribute absolutely nothing financially. Rafe talks to Bo like an old man with stories from the good old days. Lern has to navigate the complicated politics of loving three cats while knowing Clover is her original girl. And the dogs have apparently learned how to spell W-A-L-K, meaning humanity has officially lost its last tactical advantage. Then we crack open the listener emails, where things take a surprisingly wholesome turn. One listener shares his sobriety story and how an embarrassing moment on a Cub Scout camping trip ultimately became the motivation that changed his life. Years later, he was able to talk about that experience with pride—and we’re genuinely glad he shared it with the show. Don’t worry. We immediately ruin the emotional maturity by talking about Tim Curry movies. That sends the crew back to 1993’s The Three Musketeers, Tim Curry as Cardinal Richelieu, Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Chris O’Donnell, Oliver Platt, and the gloriously over-the-top “All for Love” combination of Bryan Adams, Rod Stewart, and Sting. This funny podcast briefly becomes a 1990s movie-and-music appreciation society nobody asked to join. Finally, a listener asks a dangerous question for people who have spent years working in radio: what song have you heard so many times that you never need to hear it again? For Lern, the answer comes with absolutely zero hesitation: Georgia Satellites’ “Keep Your Hands to Yourself.” She doesn’t merely dislike it. She appears prepared to personally campaign against its continued existence on rock radio. Moon considers years of Foo Fighters and Shinedown exposure, while everybody tries to figure out which songs have permanently embedded themselves into their brains after decades around radio stations. It’s pets, dog bites, cats with emotional leverage, Tim Curry nostalgia, listener stories, radio grievances, and one increasingly personal feud with the Georgia Satellites.

Du Quoin, Illinois is having a rough week, and this one hits close to home. Massive downtown fire in Rafe's hometown of Du Quoin. Multiple businesses were destroyed, including Home Lumber Company, BJ's Garden Inn and other properties along the downtown business district. Making an already difficult situation even worse, the fire happened during the Du Quoin State Fair, one of the biggest economic weeks of the year for the small Southern Illinois community. Rafe talks about seeing the damage to a downtown that's already watched businesses disappear over the years, while Lern shares her own memories of growing up nearby and planning entire summers around the Du Quoin State Fair. Thankfully, the transcript reports no injuries or deaths, but the loss is still devastating for a town of roughly 6,000 people. So the crew sends some love south and encourages everybody heading to the fair to support Du Quoin however they can. Then, eventually, the daily comedy machine starts malfunctioning again. The conversation turns into a full Southern Illinois State Fair nostalgia session, complete with Wiz Khalifa, Russell Dickerson, demo derbies, Night Ranger and Rafe remembering the time he watched Joe Diffie put on what felt like a full stadium concert inside a tiny Budweiser beer tent. Rafe also officially declares the Du Quoin State Fair superior to the Illinois State Fair in Springfield. Complaints may be directed to somebody who cares. From there, September 3rd's collection of completely necessary national holidays introduces National Welsh Rarebit Day, which briefly causes confusion over whether anyone is eating a rabbit. They're not. It's cheese. That discovery leads directly to Worcestershire sauce, pork-steak marinades and the shocking revelation that Rafe doesn't own a grill. On Labor Day weekend. We don't make the rules, but we're pretty sure that's grounds for deportation from the Midwest. Luckily, Lern has an even worse idea. After talking with Tim Virgin, she introduces a potential reality-dating concept called Rock Hard Island. The premise involves eligible bachelors from St. Louis rock radio, women applying to date them and enough trash-TV energy to immediately attract hypothetical sponsors. There isn't actually an island involved, but that's apparently a minor logistical concern. Even more alarming: sales is interested. Nothing bad has ever happened after those three words. The crew also takes a trip through September 3rd history, covering everything from the beginning of World War II to Vince Lombardi, Iron Maiden's Powerslave, Prince's massive Warner Bros. deal, Charlie Sheen's 1995 marriage and the founding of eBay. Then Lern takes over for Crap on Celebrities with a packed entertainment rundown. There's a documentary about late Rush drummer Neil Peart featuring Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and fellow drummers including Stewart Copeland, Chad Smith and Danny Carey. Rush is also headed back to St. Louis, giving Moon another chance to see a band he thought he'd never get to experience after Peart's death. There's Beck news for local record-store fans, TV talk involving Chad Powers and The Gentlemen, a rundown of the upcoming Dancing with the Stars cast, and news involving Wheel of Fortune. The show also discusses an upcoming documentary about The Office and remembers Gloria Steinem and her enormous influence on American journalism and the women's movement. Then we arrive at one of those debates designed specifically to waste productive adults' time: the greatest movie and television villains ever. Darth Vader? Obviously. Annie Wilkes? Terrifying. Voldemort? Sure. Hannibal Lecter? Yep. The Joker? Somehow they almost forgot him. The crew runs through villains ranging from Cruella de Vil and Scar to Patrick Bateman, Magneto, John Doe and Dr. Evil, proving once again that this daily comedy show can turn almost any entertainment list into an argument. Finally, Moon breaks down which music genres are supposedly most popular in different states based on search trends, with pop leading the country, metal putting up an impressive fight and Sleep Token emerging as a heavily searched metal act. Then it's birthday time, which means any remaining professionalism is escorted from the building. We've got Charlie Sheen, King Scott's twin Shaun White, Kaia Gerber, Todd Lewis, Steve Jones and more before Rafe handles the final birthday honors and everybody briefly convinces themselves that Amber Lynn is dead. She isn't. Great work, team. It's a show that starts with genuine concern for a Southern Illinois community, takes a detour through State Fair memories, somehow invents a trashy St. Louis dating show, argues about fictional villains and ends with an accidental celebrity death announcement.

Things start surprisingly deep when Lern talks about listening to Rafe’s appearance on The HoneyDew, where he discussed difficult experiences from childhood and finding comedy in darker moments. He explains the idea of turning life’s lowlights into highlights, everybody agrees that nobody escapes childhood completely unscathed, and for one fleeting moment this sounds like a mature conversation between emotionally intelligent adults. Then Moon asks what everyone puts in their coffee. So much for that. Turns out King Scott likes his coffee like he likes his women... According to former Starbucks professionals, black-coffee drinkers might enjoy torturing themselves, caramel macchiato fans barely want coffee at all, vanilla-latte people play it safe, Frappuccino drinkers are basically ordering milkshakes, matcha people might be doing it for the aesthetic, and macchiato drinkers know exactly what they want—and apparently want the barista to know that they know. Then Rafe introduces the concept of a “bro drive-thru” serving pre-workout instead of coffee, because apparently this funny podcast is also an incubator for business ideas nobody should finance. Speaking of decisions nobody should finance, Shake Shack has a limited-edition Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup shake featuring vanilla custard, peanut butter, fudge, a crackable chocolate shell, whipped cream, Reese’s cups and Reese’s Pieces. The damage? A completely reasonable and emotionally stable 1,900 calories with 158 grams of sugar. That sends the crew spiraling into their own hall of fame of caloric atrocities. Moon remembers casually annihilating an entire package of Double Stuf Oreos during his gaming days—potentially somewhere around 2,700 to 3,500 calories. Lern admits she could take down an entire gooey butter cake. And suddenly everyone is remembering the beautiful years when metabolism was magic and nutritional labels were merely decorative stickers. From there, Domino’s new Detroit-style pizza promotion sparks the important question our Founding Fathers were apparently too cowardly to answer: What belongs on the Mount Rushmore of fast food? McDonald’s fries enter the conversation. So does the Wendy’s Frosty, Taco Bell’s spicy potato soft taco, the Frisco Melt, Lion’s Choice, Dairy Queen onion rings, Rally’s fries, Del Taco, Freddy’s and more. Nobody reaches a universal consensus because democracy has failed once again. Things somehow become less appetizing when the crew discovers a Walgreens three-in-one product described as a douche, enema and water-bottle combination system. There are some household products where “multipurpose” is a selling point. This may not be one of them.

Poetry remains alive in St. Louis. And because the current calendar apparently isn't irritating enough, Moon brings up a viral proposal to replace our 12 months with five beautiful 73-day monstrosities: Jebruary, Maple, Jaugust, Socktober and Nissember. Is a 73-day Jaugust horrifying? Absolutely. Are we intrigued by Socktober? Unfortunately, yes. We also discover that plenty of Americans apparently aren’t sure what Labor Day celebrates, leading to the much more useful Rizz Show explanation that it exists so all pregnant women can give birth on the same day. Please do not cite us in an academic paper. Then Tupac conspiracy content leads into a survey asking whether Americans believe they could successfully fake their own deaths. Younger adults are more confident. Older adults have apparently lived long enough to understand that the IRS, prescription refills and bill collectors are undefeated. Finally, a high-school football season gets canceled amid an investigation into alleged misconduct at a football camp, leaving Moon to read a phrase from the reports on morning radio enough times that everyone involved should probably receive hazard pay. Coffee psychology. Childhood trauma. Reese’s shakes. Oreos. Fast-food Mount Rushmore. Dieting. Socktober. Labor Day. Fake deaths. High-school football chaos. That is Episode 101 of The Rizzuto Show—and somehow the funny podcast survived all of it. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

The 1st full Saturday slate of college football is here and Tim McKernan and Anthony Stalter are back in The Spread Zone breaking down their picks for the weekend. Anthony looks to bounce back after an 0-3 Week 0, while Tim comes in off a 2-1 week. Starting Thursday night, they look into Coach Prime's return to Atlanta, and how you can bet on Mizzou as they kick off the season against Arkansas Pine Bluffs. Plus, a showdown on the west coast as Oregon takes on Boise St., Kane Kiffin's LSU debut against Dabo Swinney's Clemson Tigers, Wisconsin and Notre Dame meeting at the not so frozen tundra of Lambeau Field, and more. Plus, does the expanded playoff change how bettors should approach massive spreads against overmatched opponents? And could a rough Week 1 loss already turn up the heat on Dabo Swinney at Clemson?

Moon kicks things off with the full report from the Cali Country Cruise, sailing from Long Beach to Ensenada, Mexico. The lineup included Tracy Lawrence, Gretchen Wilson, Jo Dee Messina, Chase Rice and plenty more, while Moon performed with Sullivan. There were some musical highs, some musical... let's call them learning opportunities... and the revelation that Jo Dee Messina may have discovered the ultimate cruise hack: perform before the ship leaves and then GET OFF THE BOAT. Gretchen Wilson, meanwhile, delivered one of Moon's highlights of the entire trip with a killer performance and band. Unfortunately, the actual cruise experience wasn't getting the same review. We're talking pricey Wi-Fi that barely worked, a balcony-room mix-up, limited excursion options, fake Cuban cigars, a stage built over the pool and a tiny backup pool populated by people who apparently had no interest in ever getting out. From there, this funny podcast turns into a tour of America's most overrated attractions. Four Corners gets roasted. Mount Rushmore gets called smaller than expected. Times Square takes a hit. The Las Vegas Strip lands at the top of the list. Lern also reveals she once got emotional seeing Chicago's Bean, proving once again that public art can be powerful when it looks like a gigantic piece of silver produce. A swimmer at Lake Tahoe reportedly gets attacked by an otter and requires 38 stitches, prompting Rafe to immediately begin defending the otter because apparently wildlife now has legal representation on The Rizzuto Show. Then there's a possible shark attack near the Massachusetts location associated with Jaws, followed by the deeply upsetting story of a woman waking from a dream about a mouse crawling toward her mouth... only to discover there was actually a BAT near her mouth. We also discover a Hawaiian shirt designed to confuse AI-powered surveillance cameras, which means Weird Al may have been preparing for the surveillance state this entire time. Missouri and Illinois get dragged into America's "worst vibes" rankings before the crew investigates which states hate each other the most. Missouri's answer? Kansas. Obviously. Centuries pass, civilizations rise and fall, and Missouri will apparently still find time to be annoyed by Kansas. Moon kicks things off with the glamorous realities of modern air travel after seemingly every flight on his trip decided that “on time” was more of a suggestion. A canceled connection, rerouting through Dallas, delays into Los Angeles and another delay getting back to St. Louis gave him plenty of time to catch up on movies. Unfortunately, that included The Mandalorian and Grogu, which gets a very enthusiastic C-minus review. Somewhere, a Star Wars fan just felt a disturbance in the Force. Then we discover that Americans apparently hit an energy wall around 2:48 in the afternoon, which explains basically every email you’ve ever received after lunch. Rafe’s sleep schedule is wrecked, Lern is fighting afternoon cravings with hard-boiled eggs, and that leads to perhaps the most important culinary advice ever delivered on a funny podcast: if you’ve already hard-boiled the egg, you’re halfway to a deviled egg. That discussion somehow turns into stale cereal confessions. Lern admits to eating old strawberry vanilla Chex after band practice while Rafe reveals that he knowingly ate stale Pops AND stale Golden Grahams. This is less a morning show and more four adults slowly admitting things that should probably stay between themselves and their pantries. Then it’s time for Crap on Celebrities, where things get appropriately ridiculous. A woman is accused of stealing and crashing an ambulance outside an Avenged Sevenfold and Good Charlotte concert. Sevendust drummer Morgan Rose gets some love. Gibson is releasing an extremely limited Billy Gibbons “Pearly Gates” Les Paul. Sean Ono Lennon welcomes his first child, making John Lennon and Yoko Ono grandparents for the first time. There’s also a Matthew Perry documentary on the way, more Tulsa King, and the crew tries to understand the enormous world of people watching other people play video games. Speaking of gaming, Grand Theft Auto gets everybody talking about Twitch, streaming communities, gameplay fandoms, and the strange realization that watching someone else play a game can become an entire entertainment ecosystem. Scott even admits he made “multiple dollars” streaming, so please respect the media mogul. Hollywood keeps the nonsense rolling with Emmy gift bags, Marvel’s mysterious Secret Wars casting, Hamnet, and Ridley Scott reportedly having some thoughts about Paul Mescal and Gladiator 2. That opens the floodgates because Rafe and Moon are more than happy to discuss just how much they hated that movie. Sharks in the Coliseum are put on trial. The verdict is not favorable. There’s also a live-action Street Fighter movie coming with a completely unhinged cast, including Jason Momoa, 50 Cent, Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Eric André and more. Apparently somebody looked at the casting board and selected “yes.” Finally, Journey brings Steve Perry look-alike Hugo Valenti onstage during shows in Japan, causing some fans to apparently wonder whether the real Steve Perry had returned. The crew listens to the results, and that goes exactly as respectfully as longtime listeners would expect. Throw in birthdays, Terry Bradshaw, Keanu Reeves, Salma Hayek, Rafe’s increasingly dangerous wordplay, and all the other nonsense that somehow qualifies as broadcasting, and you’ve got another funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show. Delayed flights. Deviled eggs. Stale Pops. Celebrity fails. Video games. Gladiator sharks. Fake Steve Perry. We accomplished nothing and covered everything. The Cali-Country Cruise 7 most overrated US attractions Woman attacked by otter while swimming says 'it felt like a human' Woman gets potential shark bite off Martha's Vineyard, in the town "Jaws" was filmed Which US state has the worst vibes?

Moon kicks things off with random facts, including the slightly unsettling reminder that everything you see technically happened in the past because your brain needs time to process visual information. Humanity’s deepest hole is only about 7.6 miles deep compared to an Earth radius of thousands of miles, and apparently hundreds of thousands of people around the world may hit the space bar during the exact same second you do. More importantly, the scientific word for your stomach rumbling enters the conversation, and the crew immediately does what scientists surely hoped humanity would do with that information: turns it into a bit. Then Rafe takes everybody deeper into the cosmic rabbit hole. Looking at distant stars means looking into the past, some of those stars may not even exist anymore, and the Andromeda galaxy we see is essentially an ancient version of itself. We eventually make it all the way back to the cosmic microwave background and the early universe before Moon asks the only question that matters: do you know what movies are playing in theaters right now? And with that, science is over. It’s time for Three in Five. The rules sound painfully simple. Rafe gives a category. The contestant gets five seconds to name three things that fit it. No stall tactics, no verbal buffering and no wasting precious seconds trying to remember information you absolutely knew before somebody put you on the radio. Naturally, everything goes wonderfully wrong. Mike in Fenton is asked for three Julia Roberts movies and fires off Pretty Woman, Ocean’s 8 and Ocean’s 11. Unfortunately, Ocean’s 8 creates a minor courtroom proceeding before Mike recovers by naming states beginning with M and actors who played Batman. Matt gets cereal mascots and Saturday Night Live cast members while apparently communicating through technology recovered from an archaeological dig. Somehow, he survives. Then Chris is asked for three TV shows set in New York City and confidently opens with… CHiPs. Yes. CHiPs. California Highway Patrol. New York City. This comedy podcast cannot explain what happened there. We can only document it for future generations. Things become even more legally questionable when Chris attempts to name three Doritos flavors and introduces “spicy taco” into the proceedings. The judges investigate. Mercy is granted. Then he names ibuprofen, Tylenol and acetaminophen as three over-the-counter pain relievers, creating another debate because Tylenol and acetaminophen might be getting suspiciously friendly with each other. Somehow, tickets are still awarded because Moon has apparently decided rules are just another form of audience participation. Lisa joins the game and gives us what sounds suspiciously like the “Pittsburgh Farts” while attempting to name professional baseball teams. The crew loses it, Lisa survives, and we eventually discover she knows her domestic beers extremely well despite preferring Ichiban. Honestly, respect. Then Bill returns seeking redemption after a previous mathematical catastrophe, only to discover that redemption is apparently not available today. Asked to name three laundry detergent brands, Bill gets as far as “Tide.” Goodbye, Bill. Jordan struggles with NFL teams and St. Louis landmarks, giving us “the Arch, the River…” before the five-second clock claims another victim. At this point the game has stopped being trivia and become a controlled experiment studying what happens when humans experience extremely mild pressure. Finally, Brad attempts to end things on a high note with refrigerator condiments, solo artists known by one name, and holidays that get you a day off work. Naturally, even that creates debates over Elvis, Bowie, Veterans Day and what exactly constitutes a universally recognized day off. Throw in AC/DC and Foo Fighters tickets, Shinedown, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, refrigerator hot-sauce organization, missing Milk Duds and a shocking amount of leniency from Moon, and you’ve got another comedy podcast that started by contemplating the age of the universe and ended by arguing about condiments. Science taught us that looking into space means looking into the past. Three in Five taught us something even more important: Never judge someone for freezing on an easy question until Rafe puts a five-second timer on you.

Moon is back from California and Mexico, Rizz is out, and naturally the captain’s chair immediately becomes a command center for delayed flights, stale cereal, deviled eggs, celebrity nonsense, video games, and a surprisingly passionate takedown of Gladiator 2. Welcome to another funny podcast where we somehow start with Southwest Airlines and end up debating whether a Steve Perry look-alike can spiritually become Steve Perry if the crowd believes hard enough. Moon kicks things off with the glamorous realities of modern air travel after seemingly every flight on his trip decided that “on time” was more of a suggestion. A canceled connection, rerouting through Dallas, delays into Los Angeles and another delay getting back to St. Louis gave him plenty of time to catch up on movies.

Rafe’s sleep schedule is wrecked, Lern is fighting afternoon cravings with hard-boiled eggs, and that leads to perhaps the most important culinary advice ever delivered on a funny podcast: if you’ve already hard-boiled the egg, you’re halfway to a deviled egg. “Scoop and gloop,” America. That discussion somehow turns into stale cereal confessions. Lern admits to eating old strawberry vanilla Chex after band practice while Rafe reveals that he knowingly ate stale Pops AND stale Golden Grahams. This is less a morning show and more four adults slowly admitting things that should probably stay between themselves and their pantries. Then it’s time for Crap on Celebrities, where things get appropriately ridiculous. A woman is accused of stealing and crashing an ambulance outside an Avenged Sevenfold and Good Charlotte concert. Sevendust drummer Morgan Rose gets some love. Gibson is releasing an extremely limited Billy Gibbons “Pearly Gates” Les Paul. Sean Ono Lennon welcomes his first child, making John Lennon and Yoko Ono grandparents for the first time. There’s also a Matthew Perry documentary on the way, more Tulsa King, and the crew tries to understand the enormous world of people watching other people play video games. Speaking of gaming, Grand Theft Auto gets everybody talking about Twitch, streaming communities, gameplay fandoms, and the strange realization that watching someone else play a game can become an entire entertainment ecosystem. Scott even admits he made “multiple dollars” streaming, so please respect the media mogul. Hollywood keeps the nonsense rolling with Emmy gift bags, Marvel’s mysterious Secret Wars casting, Hamnet, and Ridley Scott reportedly having some thoughts about Paul Mescal and Gladiator 2. That opens the floodgates because Rafe and Moon are more than happy to discuss just how much they hated that movie. Sharks in the Coliseum are put on trial. The verdict is not favorable. There’s also a live-action Street Fighter movie coming with a completely unhinged cast, including Jason Momoa, 50 Cent, Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Eric André and more. Apparently somebody looked at the casting board and selected “yes.” Finally, Journey brings Steve Perry look-alike Hugo Valenti onstage during shows in Japan, causing some fans to apparently wonder whether the real Steve Perry had returned. The crew listens to the results, and that goes exactly as respectfully as longtime listeners would expect. Throw in birthdays, Terry Bradshaw, Keanu Reeves, Salma Hayek, Rafe’s increasingly dangerous wordplay, and all the other nonsense that somehow qualifies as broadcasting, and you’ve got another funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show. Delayed flights. Deviled eggs. Stale Pops. Celebrity fails. Video games. Gladiator sharks. Fake Steve Perry. We accomplished nothing and covered everything.

Moon is back from the Cali Country Cruise, and apparently all it took was several days trapped on a boat with country music, expensive Wi-Fi, questionable pools and enough alcohol to sink a smaller boat to make our resident cruise defender reconsider his entire belief system. Welcome to Episode 146 of The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where a perfectly normal vacation recap somehow ends with violent otters, bats trying to enter human mouths, artificial intelligence being defeated by Hawaiian shirts, and Missouri discovering that the rest of America apparently doesn't love our vibes. Moon kicks things off with the full report from the Cali Country Cruise, sailing from Long Beach to Ensenada, Mexico. The lineup included Tracy Lawrence, Gretchen Wilson, Jo Dee Messina, Chase Rice and plenty more, while Moon performed with Sullivan. There were some musical highs, some musical... let's call them learning opportunities... and the revelation that Jo Dee Messina may have discovered the ultimate cruise hack: perform before the ship leaves and then GET OFF THE BOAT. Genius. No notes. Gretchen Wilson, meanwhile, delivered one of Moon's highlights of the entire trip with a killer performance and band. Unfortunately, the actual cruise experience wasn't getting the same review. We're talking pricey Wi-Fi that barely worked, a balcony-room mix-up, limited excursion options, fake Cuban cigars, a stage built over the pool and a tiny backup pool populated by people who apparently had no interest in ever getting out. Nothing makes you rethink vacation choices like sitting in a hot tub in Mexico wondering how much human broth is legally allowed before it becomes soup. And somehow that's not even where the cruise chaos ends. The ship was reportedly delayed while authorities dealt with passengers suspected of bringing meth aboard, while another passenger managed to get cut off from the alcohol package before the ship even left. Imagine getting grounded by a cruise ship while you're still within swimming distance of your car. From there, this funny podcast turns into a tour of America's most overrated attractions. Four Corners gets roasted. Mount Rushmore gets called smaller than expected. Times Square takes a hit. The Las Vegas Strip lands at the top of the list. Lern also reveals she once got emotional seeing Chicago's Bean, proving once again that public art can be powerful when it looks like a gigantic piece of silver produce. Then the animals arrive. A swimmer at Lake Tahoe reportedly gets attacked by an otter and requires 38 stitches, prompting Rafe to immediately begin defending the otter because apparently wildlife now has legal representation on The Rizzuto Show. Then there's a possible shark attack near the Massachusetts location associated with Jaws, followed by the deeply upsetting story of a woman waking from a dream about a mouse crawling toward her mouth... only to discover there was actually a BAT near her mouth. Sleep tight, everybody. We also discover a Hawaiian shirt designed to confuse AI-powered surveillance cameras, which means Weird Al may have been preparing for the surveillance state this entire time. Finally, Missouri and Illinois get dragged into America's "worst vibes" rankings before the crew investigates which states hate each other the most. Missouri's answer? Kansas. Obviously. Centuries pass, civilizations rise and fall, and Missouri will apparently still find time to be annoyed by Kansas.

Rizz is preparing for his extremely prestigious duties as a Wing Ding judge, specifically in the traditional buffalo category, which is apparently the kind of responsibility this show has been training him for his entire life. The crew debates proper wing-eating strategy, whether fasting beforehand is genius or idiotic, and naturally gets Joey Chestnut involved in the conversation without Joey Chestnut actually being there to defend himself. Then there’s actual rock-star business: Chad Gray of Mudvayne is coming into the studio. That sends everybody down memory lane with LD 50, old Mudvayne tattoos, central Illinois geography and the important question nobody else had the courage to ask: what exactly does “Mudvayne” mean? Welcome to the hard-hitting journalism portion of your favorite funny podcast. September also means Sober September, an idea Rizz immediately rejects because there’s a wedding coming up and apparently his liver already accepted the calendar invite. The gang talks declining alcohol consumption, cocktail attire, velvet suits, bolo ties and the possibility of Rafe attending a wedding dressed like a cowboy who recently discovered formalwear. The substance discussion somehow gives way to altitude sickness, canned oxygen and e-bikes capable of sending a teenager to school at highway speeds. With local schools introducing new rules for electric bikes and scooters, the crew reminisces about riding regular bikes to school—the primitive version that required legs, poor planning and occasionally missing first period. The crew dives into reports of understaffing, blind spots, online creep behavior and the increasingly obvious conclusion that some people desperately need hobbies that don’t result in police reports. Just when you thought Vin Diesel’s greatest contribution to emotional storytelling involved family, fast cars, and staring intensely into the middle distance, he goes and surprises everybody with a heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton. Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where we apparently begin with Vin Diesel singing “I Will Always Love You” and somehow get MORE unpredictable from there. The crew tries to identify the mystery celebrity behind the surprisingly vulnerable performance before learning it’s Vin Diesel—and, against all reasonable expectations, everybody is impressed. His deep voice and emotional delivery lead to the obvious conclusion that somebody should probably get this man “Ol’ Man River” immediately. Keanu’s mother, Patricia Taylor, worked as a costume designer for Dolly, including creating the famous black bunny outfit Dolly wore for her 1978 Playboy cover. That outfit eventually made its way into the Reeves household, where teenage Keanu reportedly wore it for Halloween—bunny ears, bustier, fishnets, bow tie, sneakers and all. Somehow, this only strengthens the crew’s argument that Keanu Reeves may be next in line for the title of universally beloved celebrity. From there, Crap on Celebrities gets moving with Miley Cyrus seemingly entering her one-name era, discussion surrounding Kelly Osbourne and public speculation about her appearance, and Bad Wolves releasing their metal version of “Jolene.” The crew also gets into the Sphere making The Wizard of Oz even more ridiculous, chart talk, Lionel Richie’s health scare following his St. Louis performance, ZZ Top continuing forward, Kelly Clarkson wrapping her talk show, Jamie Pressley’s reported hotel drama, and Mel Gibson apologizing after an awkward moment involving a sign-language interpreter. Then Chad Gray joins the show ahead of his 30 Years of Madness stop at Delmar Hall, and the conversation turns into a trip through three decades of heavy music. Chad talks about building a set from roughly 12 albums of material across Mudvayne and HELLYEAH, including deep cuts that force him to keep lyric sheets nearby because apparently even the guy who wrote the songs occasionally needs the musical equivalent of checking his notes. He explains how he’s kept his voice intact after decades of screaming and singing, what he learned from vocal coach Melissa Cross, and how his approach has evolved from essentially hitting every note “like a linebacker” to using more technique and finesse. What happens when an Amazon delivery driver sees a cooler of cake pops next to a sign that basically says “treat yourself”? Apparently, you get a social media controversy, an apology, a payment, an angry bakery owner, and millions of people choosing sides over four dollars’ worth of dessert. Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, where today’s funny podcast begins with celebrity birthdays and quickly escalates into the Great Cake Pop Incident. First, Rizz runs through another batch of celebrity birthdays, including Zendaya, Gloria Estefan, Billy Blanks, Dr. Phil, Barry Gibb, and Lily Tomlin. Naturally, Billy Blanks gives Rafe the opportunity to explain how knowing Tae Bo has apparently prepared him for street combat. Nothing says “please don’t fight me” quite like threatening a man with a dance kick. After dessert-based international diplomacy fails, First Alert 4 morning anchors Claire Kellett and Maurice Drummond join the show to talk about the launch of First Alert 4 on ABC in St. Louis. We compare morning-show schedules and discover that waking up around 2:30 a.m. is apparently a perfectly normal lifestyle choice when you've abandoned all hope of respecting your circadian rhythm. Claire and Maurice talk about balancing early mornings with family life, the changing television business, working alongside people who become family, and what it means to be part of the daily routine for viewers across St. Louis. Maurice looks back on his years covering sports, including Cardinals World Series celebrations, the Blues winning the Stanley Cup, and Mizzou’s huge win over Kansas at Arrowhead. Claire shares memories from covering Ferguson and talks about growing up in the St. Louis area before eventually coming home to work in local television.

What happens when an Amazon delivery driver sees a cooler of cake pops next to a sign that basically says “treat yourself”? Apparently, you get a social media controversy, an apology, a payment, an angry bakery owner, and millions of people choosing sides over four dollars’ worth of dessert. Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, where today’s funny podcast begins with celebrity birthdays and quickly escalates into the Great Cake Pop Incident. First, Rizz runs through another batch of celebrity birthdays, including Zendaya, Gloria Estefan, Billy Blanks, Dr. Phil, Barry Gibb, and Lily Tomlin. Naturally, Billy Blanks gives Rafe the opportunity to explain how knowing Tae Bo has apparently prepared him for street combat. Nothing says “please don’t fight me” quite like threatening a man with a dance kick. Then we get to Homemade Haven Porch Bakery and an Amazon delivery driver named Wes, who grabs one $4 cake pop after seeing a “treat yourself” sign near a cooler of baked goods. Wes says he thought the treats were being left out for delivery drivers. Instead of a simple misunderstanding, the bakery posts Ring camera footage online, asks people to identify him, and calls him a thief. Wes apologizes. His wife sends the bakery $5. He even asks people NOT to boycott the business. Surely everybody acts like reasonable adults from there. Oh, sweet innocent listener. The bakery doubles down, the internet discovers the story, and suddenly millions of people are debating porch etiquette, social media shaming, small-business behavior, and whether anyone committing an actual cake-pop heist would really stop after stealing exactly one. After dessert-based international diplomacy fails, First Alert 4 morning anchors Claire Kellett and Maurice Drummond join the show to talk about the launch of First Alert 4 on ABC in St. Louis. We compare morning-show schedules and discover that waking up around 2:30 a.m. is apparently a perfectly normal lifestyle choice when you've abandoned all hope of respecting your circadian rhythm. Claire and Maurice talk about balancing early mornings with family life, the changing television business, working alongside people who become family, and what it means to be part of the daily routine for viewers across St. Louis. Maurice looks back on his years covering sports, including Cardinals World Series celebrations, the Blues winning the Stanley Cup, and Mizzou’s huge win over Kansas at Arrowhead. Claire shares memories from covering Ferguson and talks about growing up in the St. Louis area before eventually coming home to work in local television. And because this is still a funny podcast, the serious media conversation naturally includes Steve Templeton memes, jokes about shirtless weather coverage, Rizz being called a bridge troll, questionable radio wardrobes, vitamin D deprivation, free donuts, and the realization that everybody working in morning media is basically hanging on by a thread. Claire and Maurice also explain what First Alert 4 expanding onto ABC means for St. Louis viewers: more news, weather, sports and traffic, plus major ABC programming and sports coverage. We even begin the extremely official campaign to get Maurice sent to the Super Bowl, because apparently this radio show now controls television travel budgets. By the end, we've covered celebrity birthdays, viral cake-pop justice, careers in St. Louis media, World Series locker rooms, Ferguson, morning-show exhaustion, college kids leaving home, TV budgets, Steve Templeton's imaginary abs, and the powerful advertising potential of a decent free T-shirt. In other words: another perfectly organized episode of your favorite funny podcast. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Just when you thought Vin Diesel’s greatest contribution to emotional storytelling involved family, fast cars, and staring intensely into the middle distance, he goes and surprises everybody with a heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton. Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where we apparently begin with Vin Diesel singing “I Will Always Love You” and somehow get MORE unpredictable from there. The crew tries to identify the mystery celebrity behind the surprisingly vulnerable performance before learning it’s Vin Diesel—and, against all reasonable expectations, everybody is impressed. His deep voice and emotional delivery lead to the obvious conclusion that somebody should probably get this man “Ol’ Man River” immediately. Then comes another Dolly Parton connection we absolutely did not have on the bingo card: Keanu Reeves. Keanu’s mother, Patricia Taylor, worked as a costume designer for Dolly, including creating the famous black bunny outfit Dolly wore for her 1978 Playboy cover. That outfit eventually made its way into the Reeves household, where teenage Keanu reportedly wore it for Halloween—bunny ears, bustier, fishnets, bow tie, sneakers and all. Somehow, this only strengthens the crew’s argument that Keanu Reeves may be next in line for the title of universally beloved celebrity. From there, Crap on Celebrities gets moving with Miley Cyrus seemingly entering her one-name era, discussion surrounding Kelly Osbourne and public speculation about her appearance, and Bad Wolves releasing their metal version of “Jolene.” The crew also gets into the Sphere making The Wizard of Oz even more ridiculous, chart talk, Lionel Richie’s health scare following his St. Louis performance, ZZ Top continuing forward, Kelly Clarkson wrapping her talk show, Jamie Pressley’s reported hotel drama, and Mel Gibson apologizing after an awkward moment involving a sign-language interpreter. You know. Normal morning activities. Then Chad Gray joins the show ahead of his 30 Years of Madness stop at Delmar Hall, and the conversation turns into a trip through three decades of heavy music. Chad talks about building a set from roughly 12 albums of material across Mudvayne and HELLYEAH, including deep cuts that force him to keep lyric sheets nearby because apparently even the guy who wrote the songs occasionally needs the musical equivalent of checking his notes. He explains how he’s kept his voice intact after decades of screaming and singing, what he learned from vocal coach Melissa Cross, and how his approach has evolved from essentially hitting every note “like a linebacker” to using more technique and finesse. The conversation gets deeper as Chad remembers being an outcast kid in Illinois and discovering heavy metal as both an identity and a tribe. That eventually leads into the incredible story of how HELLYEAH came together and Chad’s first nerve-racking phone call with Vinnie Paul. Chad remembers going to Texas, entering the studio connected to Dimebag Darrell, and seeing firsthand how emotional returning to music was for Vinnie. Playing those HELLYEAH songs today remains emotional for Chad because, as he explains, performing them is one way of keeping Vinnie’s memory alive. Chad also opens up about reaching five years of sobriety and how dramatically his life has changed. Rafe shares his own experience with 15 years without drinking, giving this funny podcast one of those rare moments where everybody stops roasting each other long enough to have an unexpectedly meaningful conversation. Don’t worry. It doesn’t become responsible for too long. The crew and Chad also revisit Mudvayne’s unforgettable early-2000s rise, including their MTV appearance, winning the inaugural MTV2 award, meeting major stars backstage, and the absolutely stacked Ozzfest era. Chad reflects on what Ozzy Osbourne did for generations of metal bands by putting younger artists in front of enormous audiences and helping create opportunities that changed careers. There’s talk of Peoria, Decatur, Illinois metal culture, touring, Mudvayne’s future, Chad’s current band, the legacy of HELLYEAH, and why sitting around waiting for something to happen simply isn’t in his DNA. So yes, this episode begins with Vin Diesel singing Dolly Parton and eventually arrives at Vinnie Paul, Ozzfest, sobriety, Mudvayne history and Keanu Reeves wearing fishnets. We'd explain how those things belong together, but that would suggest this show has a plan. It does not. That’s why you listen to this funny podcast in the first place.

Welcome to the hard-hitting journalism portion of your favorite funny podcast. September also means Sober September, an idea Rizz immediately rejects because there’s a wedding coming up and apparently his liver already accepted the calendar invite. The gang talks declining alcohol consumption, cocktail attire, velvet suits, bolo ties and the possibility of Rafe attending a wedding dressed like a cowboy who recently discovered formalwear. From there, things get considerably less responsible. A conversation about cannabis use turns into stories about modern weed being approximately 4,000 times more powerful than anyone remembers. Lern recalls taking an edible and calling her mom to talk her down. Rizz remembers falling asleep at the helm of a boat. Rafe wonders whether the ecstasy he took in the late ’90s has a delayed expiration date. Nobody learns anything. The substance discussion somehow gives way to altitude sickness, canned oxygen and e-bikes capable of sending a teenager to school at highway speeds. With local schools introducing new rules for electric bikes and scooters, the crew reminisces about riding regular bikes to school—the primitive version that required legs, poor planning and occasionally missing first period. And because this is a funny podcast that refuses to behave for more than seven consecutive minutes, we eventually arrive at the day’s disturbing collection of public indecency stories. There’s an arrest connected to incidents on the Fee Fee Greenway. There’s a Steak ’n Shake employee accused of exposing himself while delivering food to a customer’s car, leading to entirely too much discussion about what accessories would somehow make that scenario worse. Then comes the truly horrifying revelation that understaffed Dollar Tree locations have allegedly become targets for public indecency incidents. Yes. Dollar Tree. As if retail employees weren’t already dealing with enough. The crew dives into reports of understaffing, blind spots, online creep behavior and the increasingly obvious conclusion that some people desperately need hobbies that don’t result in police reports. Then Australia enters the chat. Authorities responding to what appeared to be a mangled body stuffed inside a suitcase instead discovered a discarded silicone doll. That launches a conversation about increasingly realistic customizable dolls, AI technology, questionable ethics and one very practical problem nobody puts in the brochure: what exactly are you supposed to do with a roughly 100-pound silicone companion when you’re finished with it? Goodwill probably has questions. It’s buffalo wings, rock stars, bad weed experiences, e-bike rebellion, bizarre crime stories and technology moving considerably faster than humanity’s ability to act normal. So basically: another day at The Rizzuto Show. This funny podcast proudly continues its mission of taking perfectly ordinary news stories and asking all the questions responsible adults had the good judgment not to ask.

It’s the final day of August, Moon is somewhere in parts unknown, Lern is back, and The Rizzuto Show has officially entered King Scott's BABY WATCH. The baby is now past the due date, predictions are flying around the studio, and Rizz is keeping his ringer on because that phone call could come at any moment. Naturally, while waiting for the miracle of life, the crew spends a significant amount of time celebrating another miracle: Rafe Williams finally has legal license plates. Yes, Rafe went to the DMV. Voluntarily. Sort of. What should have been a routine trip to get his truck squared away became a full-blown battle with Missouri bureaucracy. There’s a packed Creve Coeur DMV, a confusing sign-in system, expired temp tags, paperwork, an emissions-test surprise and a ticking clock. At one point Rafe has until 4:30 to get an emissions test completed or face the horrifying possibility of coming back Monday and waiting all over again. That’s when a listener at the auto shop recognizes him, gets the Tacoma squeezed in, and sends our hero racing back to the DMV with paperwork held high like he just returned from the Crusades. By the end, Rafe is trying to get the entire waiting room to cheer for the woman who helped him. This is the kind of inspirational story your favorite comedy podcast provides because apparently our standards for heroism have become “successfully registering a motor vehicle.” The DMV adventure also sends the crew into everything from old people trying to navigate touchscreen kiosks to modern cars putting every basic function behind another touchscreen. We have reached the future, and the future apparently requires three menus just to turn down the air conditioning. Then Lern returns from Colorado with stories involving the Grizzly Rose, mechanical bulls, mountain towns, wineries, peaches, e-bikes and some legitimately terrifying drives through the Rockies. Her relaxing family getaway somehow includes bull riding and flying around mountain roads, because nobody associated with this show is capable of having a normal vacation. Rizz has his own driving adventure after the intro to “Money for Nothing” hits at exactly the wrong—or right—time and suddenly he’s doing 80 with a police officer behind him. Is getting completely lost in a song a valid speeding defense? Legally, probably don't take our advice. Spiritually? Absolutely. The weekend recaps keep rolling as Rizz gets his first full Friday Night Lights experience watching his daughter cheer at Lafayette, then attends a 40th birthday party extravagant enough to make everyone reconsider their current tax bracket. Meanwhile, Rafe survives Jamie Rivers’ bachelor party, gets his first real taste of the Cafe Napoli scene and discovers that former professional hockey players apparently possess a completely different transmission when it comes to staying out late. Rizz has a problem. For years, he thought sending someone a 👍 meant something along the lines of “sounds good,” “got it” or “cool.” Welcome to another episode of The Rizzuto Show, where daily comedy begins with Rizz discovering that the thumbs-up emoji has evolved into something cold, dismissive and potentially passive-aggressive. Lern and Rafe attempt to explain that context matters and that, depending on who sends it, a simple thumbs-up can basically be the texting equivalent of “K.” From there, things somehow get worse when Sexy Time Fun Facts introduces us to “pheromone maxing.” What is pheromone maxing? Imagine somebody hearing that humans may be attracted to natural scent and deciding the logical next step is to stop showering and quit using deodorant before a date. According to the trend discussed on the show, some guys are even wearing unwashed clothes in an attempt to amplify their natural musk. The theory is that maximizing your natural scent will make you “biologically irresistible.” Lern has an alternative dating strategy: shower. Rafe also points out that if somebody is naturally attracted to your scent, your pheromones can probably survive a light application of deodorant. Cushioning is when someone in a committed relationship keeps another potential romantic partner hanging around in the background. They’re not necessarily dating the backup person, but they maintain enough flirty texts, DMs, casual communication or coffee meetups to keep that option warm just in case the current relationship explodes. Basically, romance now apparently requires a depth chart. The crew gets into back burners, rosters, dating multiple people and the difference between casually seeing different people while single versus keeping someone emotionally invested while you're already committed. Rafe compares the backup attention to a little dopamine hit sitting in your pocket whenever you need some validation. After spending countless hours watching couples navigate one of the happiest—and most stressful—days of their lives, veteran wedding photographers say certain behaviors can become giant relationship red flags. One is heavy drinking to cope rather than celebrate. Another is body language, including whether someone's feet consistently point away from their new spouse in photographs. Suddenly Lern is pulling up her own wedding pictures to investigate where Tim's feet were pointing. Other warning signs include an underwhelming first-look reaction, dismissive comments about a partner's appearance, a lack of affection, eye-rolling during photos and someone who seems significantly happier around their friends than around the person they literally just married. And while we're already destroying everybody's confidence in modern romance, Rafe brings the conversation back to social media and the illusion of unlimited options. When your phone constantly suggests that another person, another relationship and another opportunity are one swipe away, how much harder does it become to appreciate the person who's actually standing in front of you? Because this episode also manages to include coconut oil deodorant experiments, back-burner spreadsheets, a collectible Tommy Wiseau wooden spoon, Lern accidentally making it sound like her wedding photographers died when they actually just moved to California, and a tease involving a robot vacuum allegedly catching a wife cheating.

Rizz has a problem. For years, he thought sending someone a 👍 meant something along the lines of “sounds good,” “got it” or “cool.” Apparently he’s been telling everyone to go screw themselves. Welcome to another episode of The Rizzuto Show, where daily comedy begins with Rizz discovering that the thumbs-up emoji has evolved into something cold, dismissive and potentially passive-aggressive. Lern and Rafe attempt to explain that context matters and that, depending on who sends it, a simple thumbs-up can basically be the texting equivalent of “K.” This is terrible news for Rizz, who JUST figured out emojis. Naturally, the solution is to replace the thumbs-up with another emoji. We will allow you to discover which one the crew suggests. Human communication has had a good run. From there, things somehow get worse when Sexy Time Fun Facts introduces us to “pheromone maxing.” What is pheromone maxing? Imagine somebody hearing that humans may be attracted to natural scent and deciding the logical next step is to stop showering and quit using deodorant before a date. According to the trend discussed on the show, some guys are even wearing unwashed clothes in an attempt to amplify their natural musk. And then there's the part involving drinking your own… bodily fluids. We'd like to formally apologize to everyone currently eating breakfast. The theory is that maximizing your natural scent will make you “biologically irresistible.” Lern has an alternative dating strategy: shower. Rafe also points out that if somebody is naturally attracted to your scent, your pheromones can probably survive a light application of deodorant. We are not scientists, but we feel pretty comfortable siding with Team Soap. Next up is another dating term nobody asked for: cushioning. Cushioning is when someone in a committed relationship keeps another potential romantic partner hanging around in the background. They’re not necessarily dating the backup person, but they maintain enough flirty texts, DMs, casual communication or coffee meetups to keep that option warm just in case the current relationship explodes. Basically, romance now apparently requires a depth chart. The crew gets into back burners, rosters, dating multiple people and the difference between casually seeing different people while single versus keeping someone emotionally invested while you're already committed. Rafe compares the backup attention to a little dopamine hit sitting in your pocket whenever you need some validation. Meanwhile, Rizz reaches the slightly less clinical conclusion that maybe you're just being selfish. This daily comedy relationship seminar then moves to wedding photographers, who may know your marriage is doomed before you do. After spending countless hours watching couples navigate one of the happiest—and most stressful—days of their lives, veteran wedding photographers say certain behaviors can become giant relationship red flags. One is heavy drinking to cope rather than celebrate. Another is body language, including whether someone's feet consistently point away from their new spouse in photographs. Suddenly Lern is pulling up her own wedding pictures to investigate where Tim's feet were pointing. Nothing says healthy marriage like retroactively conducting a body-language audit of your wedding photos on the radio. Other warning signs include an underwhelming first-look reaction, dismissive comments about a partner's appearance, a lack of affection, eye-rolling during photos and someone who seems significantly happier around their friends than around the person they literally just married. This leads to the obvious question: after photographing enough weddings, can photographers actually spot the marriages that aren't going to make it? And while we're already destroying everybody's confidence in modern romance, Rafe brings the conversation back to social media and the illusion of unlimited options. When your phone constantly suggests that another person, another relationship and another opportunity are one swipe away, how much harder does it become to appreciate the person who's actually standing in front of you? Look at us getting philosophical. Don't worry. It doesn't last. Because this episode also manages to include coconut oil deodorant experiments, back-burner spreadsheets, a collectible Tommy Wiseau wooden spoon, Lern accidentally making it sound like her wedding photographers died when they actually just moved to California, and a tease involving a robot vacuum allegedly catching a wife cheating. Apparently the Roomba has seen some things. So put down the dating apps, take a shower, stop analyzing every emoji you've received since 2019 and maybe check which direction your spouse's feet are pointing.

Today we’re diving into an absolutely wild romance scam involving a man accused of pretending to be a San Francisco 49ers wide receiver—or, depending on the day, an ultra-wealthy Swiss real estate mogul. Authorities say the four-year scheme targeted at least 26 women and brought in roughly $1.3 million. Apparently dating apps weren’t stressful enough already. The details only get crazier. The alleged scam included social media accounts packed with 49ers gear, luxury cars and images designed to make the whole thing look legitimate. According to the story discussed on the show, some of the online material was AI-generated, and the fake identity became established enough online that search engines and AI tools reportedly started treating the guy like an actual football player. Then comes the fake wealth. Screenshots supposedly showed bank and investment accounts containing millions of dollars, and once relationships were established, an alleged accomplice would enter the picture as the “wealth manager.” Three-way calls, fake investment returns and promises of high-yield opportunities followed. When victims ran out of money or started asking questions? Suddenly their extremely successful NFL boyfriend became extremely unavailable. It launches the crew into a bigger conversation about romance scams, our weird relationship with wealth and just how easy it has become to manufacture an impressive-looking life online. Rafe points out that you barely need a real podcast anymore—you can film yourself in front of a microphone, dispense some motivational nonsense and convince the internet you’ve appeared on 400 episodes of something called The Alpha Wealth Mindset Experience. Okay, we made that title up. But you’ve absolutely seen that guy. Listeners pile on with stories of fake celebrities allegedly trying to scam people, including Martina McBride and Mark Harmon impersonators. If Mark Harmon suddenly slides into Mom’s Facebook messages and needs $700 in gift cards, maybe call somebody. That’s the kind of public service you only get from a funny podcast with absolutely no qualifications to provide public services. The show also tackles the old belief that celebrity deaths happen in threes and why our brains are so desperate to find patterns in random events. From there, we discover Goodwill is getting into the record-store business with a media-focused concept called Rewind. Vinyl, CDs, cassettes, VHS tapes, vintage audio gear and whatever forgotten three-disc CD changer somebody's mom finally convinced Dad to get out of the basement. It might be heaven. It might smell like somebody else's basement. Either way, we're interested. Then it’s time for Crap on Celebrities, where things get wonderfully messy. The crew gets into music and entertainment news, including Olivia Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields Festival, Sarah McLachlan, Alanis Morissette and Stevie Nicks. That naturally becomes a debate over “Landslide,” including Lern’s discovery that apparently nothing evacuates a Colorado bar faster than putting it on the jukebox. There’s also Scott Weiland material headed for release, more Korn vinyl reissues, Limp Bizkit joining Spotify’s billion-stream club and the continuing realization that the music of our youth is now getting 30th-anniversary editions. Awesome. Love having time itself personally attack us. Elsewhere, an 85-year-old Donna Mills is reportedly making serious money on OnlyFans without full nudity, which sends Rafe into an impromptu financial analysis of the subscription business model. This is technically economics if nobody from an accredited university is listening. The entertainment chaos continues with Coyote vs. Acme, a creepy movie called Buddy that basically asks what would happen if a beloved children’s mascot completely snapped, and news of Tom Cruise returning as Cole Trickle for a Days of Thunder sequel alongside Anne Hathaway. The crew also discovers a movie about the creation of Hooters is in development, accidentally invents an entirely different restaurant concept during the conversation, and immediately starts yelling “trademark” because apparently that’s how intellectual property law works now. Finally, we get famous musicians trashing other famous musicians. Jack White versus The Black Keys. Madonna versus Lady Gaga. Elton John versus Madonna. Kurt Cobain versus seemingly everybody. Courtney Love versus Taylor Swift. Nick Cave versus the Red Hot Chili Peppers. And Usher telling T-Pain that Auto-Tune messed up music. Nothing brings people together quite like extremely successful artists explaining why other extremely successful artists are terrible. Fake NFL stars. AI-generated lifestyles. Romance scams. KISS Army business. Celebrity impostors. Vinyl nostalgia. Music feuds. OnlyFans economics. Tom Cruise going racing again. And an alarming amount of discussion about Hooters. It’s another funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show, where we examine the important stories of our time and then immediately ruin any chance of being taken seriously.

It’s the final day of August, Moon is somewhere in parts unknown, Lern is back, and The Rizzuto Show has officially entered BABY WATCH. The baby is now past the due date, predictions are flying around the studio, and Rizz is keeping his ringer on because that phone call could come at any moment. Naturally, while waiting for the miracle of life, the crew spends a significant amount of time celebrating another miracle: Rafe Williams finally has legal license plates. Yes, Rafe went to the DMV. Voluntarily. Sort of. What should have been a routine trip to get his truck squared away became a full-blown battle with Missouri bureaucracy. There’s a packed Creve Coeur DMV, a confusing sign-in system, expired temp tags, paperwork, an emissions-test surprise and a ticking clock. At one point Rafe has until 4:30 to get an emissions test completed or face the horrifying possibility of coming back Monday and waiting all over again. That’s when a listener at the auto shop recognizes him, gets the Tacoma squeezed in, and sends our hero racing back to the DMV with paperwork held high like he just returned from the Crusades. By the end, Rafe is trying to get the entire waiting room to cheer for the woman who helped him. This is the kind of inspirational story your favorite comedy podcast provides because apparently our standards for heroism have become “successfully registering a motor vehicle.” The DMV adventure also sends the crew into everything from old people trying to navigate touchscreen kiosks to modern cars putting every basic function behind another touchscreen. We have reached the future, and the future apparently requires three menus just to turn down the air conditioning. Then Lern returns from Colorado with stories involving the Grizzly Rose, mechanical bulls, mountain towns, wineries, peaches, e-bikes and some legitimately terrifying drives through the Rockies. Her relaxing family getaway somehow includes bull riding and flying around mountain roads, because nobody associated with this show is capable of having a normal vacation. Rizz has his own driving adventure after the intro to “Money for Nothing” hits at exactly the wrong—or right—time and suddenly he’s doing 80 with a police officer behind him. Is getting completely lost in a song a valid speeding defense? Legally, probably don't take our advice. Spiritually? Absolutely. The weekend recaps keep rolling as Rizz gets his first full Friday Night Lights experience watching his daughter cheer at Lafayette, then attends a 40th birthday party extravagant enough to make everyone reconsider their current tax bracket. Meanwhile, Rafe survives Jamie Rivers’ bachelor party, gets his first real taste of the Cafe Napoli scene and discovers that former professional hockey players apparently possess a completely different transmission when it comes to staying out late. And because this comedy podcast refuses to remain anywhere near the rails for long, the conversation keeps finding new and increasingly questionable destinations—including St. Louis weird news and the kind of stories that make you reconsider ever accepting a job that requires entering a stranger’s home. Baby watch. DMV purgatory. Colorado adventures. Friday night football. St. Louis nightlife. Questionable driving decisions. And Rafe becoming a legally compliant Missouri resident against all odds.

Today’s episode begins exactly where every respectable radio program should: debating canned chili and whether The Rizzuto Show should abandon broadcasting altogether to open a chili parlor. Because apparently decades of radio experience were merely preparation for serving questionable bowls of meat during a St. Louis summer. The crew gets into a disturbing local story involving two kittens rescued after being thrown from a moving vehicle, which launches a conversation about animal cruelty, punishment, and why there have been so many bizarre animal-abuse cases around the St. Louis area. Thankfully, the kittens are recovering, because this show has enough emotional damage without adding more. Then we head to the amusement park formerly known as Six Flags, talk about its new Mid America Adventure identity, and immediately start remembering the various roller coasters that have spent decades attempting to rearrange our internal organs. That leads us to California's X2 coaster and reports of riders suffering terrifying medical emergencies. Naturally, half the room hears “brain hemorrhage” and responds like someone just announced a new thrill ride they absolutely have to try. Rafe also gives us an update from the dating world, including his Texas connection and the increasingly complicated rules surrounding modern romance. That turns into the question every hopeless romantic eventually has to answer: is a grand gesture thoughtful… or are you about three seconds away from appearing in somebody’s “THIS GUY IS A CREEP” TikTok? A guy goes on two dates with a woman, finds her address without asking, and sends her Mother's Day flowers supposedly from her dog. Sweet? Creepy? Thirsty? The Rizz Show Supreme Court is now in session, and absolutely nobody involved has passed the bar. Apparently this question is complicated enough to involve law enforcement, surveillance footage, social media, and an actual public search for the guy who picked up the cash. Suddenly our daily comedy podcast has become CSI: Walmart, where the suspect is armed with three ten-dollar bills and an extremely debatable interpretation of “finders keepers.” We also get into air-travel nightmares after a pilot suffers a medical emergency during a flight and still manages to help get the plane safely on the ground. Meanwhile, Moon is preparing to fly, which is exactly the kind of story you want to hear immediately before heading to an airport. The episode’s namesake saga involves Yolanda Jackson, a drive-through order, a dangerously hot pot pie, severe burns, permanent scarring, and the resulting courtroom battle. Nothing says daily comedy quite like discovering your food apparently requires protective equipment. It's another episode filled with St. Louis stories, weird news, dating disasters, food catastrophes, questionable financial ethics, amusement-park trauma, and the kind of conversations that start somewhere reasonable before wandering directly into the woods. Dust off that giant binder of scratched CDs you definitely didn’t throw away because apparently funny podcast history has come full circle: physical media is making a comeback. The show kicks off with the surprising resurgence of CDs, with sales jumping while vinyl growth slows down. Why? Turns out paying nearly $40 for a new record eventually makes people reconsider the humble compact disc. Gen Z is getting into CDs, independent record stores are stocking more of them, older cars still have CD players, and there’s something comforting about owning music that can’t suddenly disappear from a streaming service. Moon also realizes those boxes of old band CDs might not be useless relics after all. Congratulations to everyone who refused to clean out their basement. Your moment has arrived. Then Crap on Celebrities takes us directly into the wildly expensive world of Hollywood memorabilia. A screen-matched mosquito-in-amber prop from the original Jurassic Park sells for more than $400,000, while Christopher Reeve’s Superman gear and John Travolta’s famous Saturday Night Fever suit also bring ridiculous money at auction. The crew also gets into entertainment news, including the changing timeline between theatrical releases and streaming, Toy Story 5, a live-action Scooby-Doo prequel, and Ghost taking a hiatus after Tobias Forge admits he doesn’t currently have a clear vision for the band’s next album. We salute a man willing to say, “I don’t know what the next thing is yet,” instead of releasing twelve remixes and a commemorative popcorn bucket. Then there’s Grand Theft Auto. The latest massive GTA preview sends the room into gamer mode as the crew talks about the gigantic map, Jason and Lucia’s evolving relationship, smarter cops, surveillance cameras, changing disguises, massive police chases and an enormous story that could consume roughly 80 hours of your life. Chris Novoselic. Danny Carey. Mick Fleetwood. Buckethead. Joey Ramone. Billy Corgan. Angus Young. Prince. Glenn Danzig. Stevie Nicks. The measurements are flying, everyone suddenly seems either seven feet tall or legally eligible for a booster seat, and we discover once again that stage presence apparently adds about eight inches. Carefully constructed journeys through comedy, culture, and the human condition. This one starts with an eagle call, gets yelled at by an offended listener, drinks imaginary Malört, sends Riz back to college, remembers the horrors of Rotten.com, and eventually makes everybody emotional over Dolly Parton. So… basically the same thing. The Rizzuto Show kicks off with Team JB and the Zero Prostate Cancer Run and Walk in memory of our buddy Jeff Burton, plus Greek Fire getting ready for a show benefiting Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. Then we get into one of radio’s oldest traditions: somebody getting mad enough at the show to contact the bosses. This time, a listener wasn’t thrilled about the proximity of the Porno Birthday to a children’s charity announcement. Riz got the dreaded “Can I see you before you leave?” message, and suddenly we’re debating whether everybody is too easily offended, whether people need to watch what they say, and whether society could possibly locate that mythical middle ground where empathy and a sense of humor coexist. Rafe brings the comedian’s perspective to the argument, including the audience member who loves 99 jokes but desperately needs to inform you about the one they didn’t like. Our solution remains remarkably simple: maybe leave that joke at the club and take the other ones home. We discover that Malört has somehow created an entire identity around tasting terrible. Most companies try to convince customers their product is delicious. Malört basically dares you to survive it. The gang dives into its hilariously hostile marketing, its reputation as Chicago’s favorite way to punish a friend, and the important question nobody has apparently answered: Is anyone ordering this stuff because they actually enjoy it? From there, we say farewell to Sam Rizzuto’s dream of college independence after Riz tours the University of Arkansas and realizes he might want the full college experience himself. Suddenly we’re imagining a Back to School scenario where father and son become Razorbacks together, share a dorm, take Intro to Communications, and graduate in the same class. Nothing weird about that whatsoever, Sam. Your new roommate just happens to be Dad. The real RIPs begin with tributes to Peter Cullen and Tim Curry, celebrating two remarkable careers and the voices, characters, movies, and performances they left behind. Finally, Rafe delivers a deeply personal tribute to Dolly Parton. It’s funny, sincere, personal, and probably more emotionally responsible than anything surrounding the previous discussion of Malört.

Some episodes are carefully constructed journeys through comedy, culture, and the human condition. This one starts with an eagle call, gets yelled at by an offended listener, drinks imaginary Malört, sends Riz back to college, remembers the horrors of Rotten.com, and eventually makes everybody emotional over Dolly Parton. So… basically the same thing. Episode 101 of The Rizzuto Show kicks off with Team JB and the Zero Prostate Cancer Run and Walk in memory of our buddy Jeff Burton, plus Greek Fire getting ready for a show benefiting Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. Then we get into one of radio’s oldest traditions: somebody getting mad enough at the show to contact the bosses.

Rafe brings the comedian’s perspective to the argument, including the audience member who loves 99 jokes but desperately needs to inform you about the one they didn’t like. Our solution remains remarkably simple: maybe leave that joke at the club and take the other ones home. Then it’s time for E Memoriam, where this comedy podcast says goodbye to the things that technically don’t require a eulogy but absolutely deserve one anyway. First victim: Malört. We discover that Malört has somehow created an entire identity around tasting terrible. Most companies try to convince customers their product is delicious. Malört basically dares you to survive it. The gang dives into its hilariously hostile marketing, its reputation as Chicago’s favorite way to punish a friend, and the important question nobody has apparently answered: Is anyone ordering this stuff because they actually enjoy it? From there, we say farewell to Sam Rizzuto’s dream of college independence after Riz tours the University of Arkansas and realizes he might want the full college experience himself. Suddenly we’re imagining a Back to School scenario where father and son become Razorbacks together, share a dorm, take Intro to Communications, and graduate in the same class. Nothing weird about that whatsoever, Sam. Your new roommate just happens to be Dad. The E Memoriam keeps rolling through an alleged NFL-owner prostitution story before taking a hard nostalgic turn toward two artifacts from the Internet’s lawless frontier: Rotten.com and terrible Hotmail addresses. Kids today have algorithms delivering disturbing content directly to them. We had to type Rotten.com into a Gateway computer, wait for a 56k modem to connect, and then stare helplessly as a horrifying JPEG loaded one traumatic horizontal strip at a time. And Hotmail? Hotmail was where an entire generation created email addresses at 14 without considering the possibility that someday they might need to send a résumé or refinance a house. Nothing screams “results-oriented professional” quite like an inbox name created by a teenage boy in 2001. But then the show changes gears. The real RIPs begin with tributes to Peter Cullen and Tim Curry, celebrating two remarkable careers and the voices, characters, movies, and performances they left behind. Finally, Rafe delivers a deeply personal tribute to Dolly Parton. Rather than simply listing accomplishments, he reflects on what Dolly represented to a small-town kid with ridiculous dreams: proof that where you begin doesn’t determine where you finish. He talks about her ability to become enormously successful without becoming ashamed of where she came from, to take her work seriously without taking herself too seriously, and to stand for something without treating everyone who disagreed with her like an enemy. It’s funny, sincere, personal, and probably more emotionally responsible than anything surrounding the previous discussion of Malört. That’s The Rizzuto Show: sarcastic humor, weird news, questionable nostalgia, entertainment commentary, and occasionally a moment that reminds us there are actual human beings behind these microphones. Come for the ridiculous stories. Stay for the unexpected feelings. And enjoy another comedy podcast episode that proves we can apparently make the emotional journey from horrible liquor to Dolly Parton in roughly half an hour.

A screen-matched mosquito-in-amber prop from the original Jurassic Park sells for more than $400,000, while Christopher Reeve’s Superman gear and John Travolta’s famous Saturday Night Fever suit also bring ridiculous money at auction. Naturally, this becomes less about collecting important pieces of movie history and more about whether you’re morally obligated to PUT THE COSTUME ON. Because if you spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on Superman’s costume just to leave it behind glass, what are we even doing here? The crew also gets into entertainment news, including the changing timeline between theatrical releases and streaming, Toy Story 5, a live-action Scooby-Doo prequel, and Ghost taking a hiatus after Tobias Forge admits he doesn’t currently have a clear vision for the band’s next album. We salute a man willing to say, “I don’t know what the next thing is yet,” instead of releasing twelve remixes and a commemorative popcorn bucket. Then there’s Grand Theft Auto. The latest massive GTA preview sends the room into gamer mode as the crew talks about the gigantic map, Jason and Lucia’s evolving relationship, smarter cops, surveillance cameras, changing disguises, massive police chases and an enormous story that could consume roughly 80 hours of your life. So basically, Rockstar has created a second full-time job, except this one lets you steal cars. The funny podcast chaos keeps rolling with Paris Hilton landing on a list of influential people in artificial intelligence because of her advocacy surrounding privacy and non-consensual AI-generated media. Then the hunt for the next James Bond gives everyone a chance to evaluate candidates with the rigorous casting standards you’d expect from three guys who immediately nominate Mr. Bean. And finally, we tackle one of the most important databases ever assembled: tall and short rock stars. Chris Novoselic. Danny Carey. Mick Fleetwood. Buckethead. Joey Ramone. Billy Corgan. Angus Young. Prince. Glenn Danzig. Stevie Nicks. The measurements are flying, everyone suddenly seems either seven feet tall or legally eligible for a booster seat, and we discover once again that stage presence apparently adds about eight inches. Throw in celebrity birthdays, Luis Guzmán appreciation, Warren Buffett confusion, Charlie Munger confusion, additional Charlie confusion, and the traditional descent into nonsense, and you’ve got another funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show. Physical media is back. Movie props cost more than retirement. GTA may require PTO. And Danzig is still Danzig at any height. That’s enough education for one day.

A guy goes on two dates with a woman, finds her address without asking, and sends her Mother's Day flowers supposedly from her dog. Sweet? Creepy? Thirsty? The Rizz Show Supreme Court is now in session, and absolutely nobody involved has passed the bar. Then comes one of the great moral dilemmas of our time: you find $30 on the floor at Walmart. Do you keep it? Apparently this question is complicated enough to involve law enforcement, surveillance footage, social media, and an actual public search for the guy who picked up the cash. Suddenly our daily comedy podcast has become CSI: Walmart, where the suspect is armed with three ten-dollar bills and an extremely debatable interpretation of “finders keepers.” We also get into air-travel nightmares after a pilot suffers a medical emergency during a flight and still manages to help get the plane safely on the ground.

The Rizzuto Show kicks things off by remembering Tim Curry, his legendary career, and the unfortunate timing of losing another beloved celebrity during an already emotional week. That leads the crew into the important question of who could possibly fill the role of a universally beloved celebrity these days. Adam Sandler gets consideration, Jeff Bridges enters the conversation, and eventually Keanu Reeves emerges as a pretty strong candidate because apparently quietly eating ice cream and being a decent human being now qualifies you for sainthood. Fair enough. Then everybody gets nostalgic about childhood discipline, which quickly becomes less “remember the good old days?” and more “should somebody have called somebody?” The crew remembers wooden spoons, belts, Hot Wheels tracks, fly swatters, soap in the mouth and the terrifying parental phrase that basically meant your afternoon plans had been canceled. It’s another wholesome trip down memory lane from your favorite funny podcast, assuming your memories involve calculating the trajectory of a leather belt like you’re working for NASA. Next stop: Burning Man, where the crew investigates the return of the infamous adults-only dome after last year’s wind-related disaster. There are rules now: IDs, consent, no recording devices and, most importantly, no singles strolling in alone. Which naturally launches a completely necessary discussion about whether two buddies could simply pretend to be a couple to get through the door. Journalism is alive and well. Things somehow become more respectable when we arrive in Tulsa, where authorities are searching for a mysterious serial defecator accused of targeting businesses while dressed in an ensemble involving tiny underwear, a shower cap, a modified mask and Crocs. The most damning detail? The Crocs apparently weren’t in sport mode. That’s how you know this guy fears neither God nor law enforcement. And then comes Oreogate. A kindergarten mom reportedly asks the other parents to stop packing Oreos because her daughter gets upset when other kids have them. No allergy. No medical issue. Just the brutal realization that another five-year-old has cookies and you do not. When the other parents refuse to reorganize their children’s lunches around this international crisis, Mom considers switching schools. Over Oreos. Meanwhile, the kid starts trading for them anyway, proving once again that kindergarten cafeterias are basically tiny prisons with better wall art. The crew debates school-lunch currency, Double Stuf superiority, Golden Oreos, questionable specialty flavors and the economic insanity required to consider changing schools because Nabisco has destroyed the peace. There are even pickle-flavored Oreo-adjacent horrors entering the studio, because apparently talking about terrible cookies wasn't enough—we needed witnesses. It’s celebrity talk, childhood trauma disguised as nostalgia, weird news, Burning Man logistics, criminal fashion analysis and one kindergarten snack dispute treated with roughly the seriousness of an international trade embargo. The crew dives into UFOs becoming UAPs, government disclosures, Bob Lazar, Area 51 and whether actual extraterrestrial visitors could finally unite humanity. Rafe thinks having one common alien enemy might finally turn us all into citizens of Earth. Moon isn't buying that optimism and figures we'd probably start fighting over which country gets custody of the aliens before they even get out of the ship. Sounds about right. Back on Earth, St. Louis is getting a little Hollywood treatment with The Streak, a sports comedy filming locally about Caltech's legendary basketball team snapping a 310-game losing streak. The production needs roughly 1,800 volunteer extras for basketball crowd scenes, meaning you too can spend five hours waiting around for your glorious half-second of blurry cinematic immortality. At least they're bringing stand-up comedians in to entertain the extras between takes. Then we enter conspiracy territory with Tropical Storm Dolly. Yes, shortly after Dolly Parton's passing, the next named Atlantic storm happens to be Dolly. No, they didn't name it after her. Yes, the names were already determined. And yes, people online are still turning it into a conspiracy because apparently coincidence was removed from the Internet's vocabulary sometime around 2017. It's the kind of discussion a comedy podcast was genetically engineered to handle. The show also remembers the incredible Tim Curry, looking back at everything from The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Clue to Home Alone 2, Congo and his nightmare-fueling performance as Pennywise in the 1990 TV adaptation of It. Somehow that horrifying sewer scene aired on network television and an entire generation of children was simply expected to sleep afterward. The '90s were built different. Crap on Celebrities brings even more chaos: the Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni legal saga, Jamie Foxx discussing changes made to Django Unchained, a Quentin Tarantino-written Cliff Booth project, the original Sandlot cast reuniting for Dugout Dads, and the revelation that Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez grew up to become a firefighter. There is also a detour into a bizarre 2015 incident involving actor Mike Vitar because apparently even The Sandlot can't survive this show without us finding something weird. Ozzy Osbourne is getting his own Halloween Horror Nights attraction, Boston is celebrating 50 years with previously unreleased demos, Eric Clapton and John Mayer have a limited-edition guitar collection benefiting Clapton's recovery center, and Rupert Grint is returning as an adult Ron Weasley on Broadway. It's celebrity news, music news and pop culture commentary delivered with the level of professionalism you've come to expect from people debating alien treaties earlier in the episode. Before social media algorithms knew everything about you, the internet was a simpler place. A lawless, dial-up wasteland where your email address was probably something like [email protected] and one accidental click on Rotten.com could permanently alter the trajectory of your childhood. So naturally, The Rizzuto Show is going back. This episode starts with more nostalgia for the early internet and one of its most infamous destinations: Rotten.com. Back then, you couldn't just stumble across every horrifying thing imaginable while casually scrolling your phone. No, sir. You had to work for your trauma. You had to hear about Rotten.com from somebody, type it into the family computer, click something you absolutely shouldn't have clicked, and then wait patiently while your dial-up connection loaded your lifelong regret one horrifying line at a time. Was Rotten.com disgusting? Absolutely. Does the crew still seem weirdly sad that it's gone? Also absolutely. Then we move from internet trauma to another relic of the '90s and early 2000s: Hotmail. A poll says 18% of people are apparently still rocking a Hotmail address, which leads to an important discovery: Hotmail never completely disappeared. Microsoft eventually transitioned the service into Outlook, meaning technically some of us may still be living inside the Hotmail universe. We're all dorks. Fantastic. The crew remembers the era when nobody used their actual name for an email address. Instead, we created identities that looked like rejected Xbox gamertags: random nicknames, 420s, 69s and enough questionable innuendo to make applying for a respectable adult job years later slightly complicated.

Before social media algorithms knew everything about you, the internet was a simpler place. A lawless, dial-up wasteland where your email address was probably something like [email protected] and one accidental click on Rotten.com could permanently alter the trajectory of your childhood. So naturally, The Rizzuto Show is going back. This episode starts with more nostalgia for the early internet and one of its most infamous destinations: Rotten.com. Back then, you couldn't just stumble across every horrifying thing imaginable while casually scrolling your phone. No, sir. You had to work for your trauma. You had to hear about Rotten.com from somebody, type it into the family computer, click something you absolutely shouldn't have clicked, and then wait patiently while your dial-up connection loaded your lifelong regret one horrifying line at a time. Was Rotten.com disgusting? Absolutely. Does the crew still seem weirdly sad that it's gone? Also absolutely. Then we move from internet trauma to another relic of the '90s and early 2000s: Hotmail. A poll says 18% of people are apparently still rocking a Hotmail address, which leads to an important discovery: Hotmail never completely disappeared. Microsoft eventually transitioned the service into Outlook, meaning technically some of us may still be living inside the Hotmail universe. We're all dorks. Fantastic. The crew remembers the era when nobody used their actual name for an email address. Instead, we created identities that looked like rejected Xbox gamertags: random nicknames, 420s, 69s and enough questionable innuendo to make applying for a respectable adult job years later slightly complicated. And then there are the complaint emails. Apparently nothing tells the show exactly what demographic they're dealing with faster than receiving an angry message from an account created during the Clinton administration. Welcome to daily comedy, where your email provider is now apparently enough information for us to profile you. But nostalgia eventually gives way to competition as Match Up With Moon returns with Rafe versus Moon, and that's when everybody's remaining intelligence begins leaking out of the studio. Round one starts innocently enough. What's Beantown? Boston. Easy. Which amendment gave women the right to vote? The 19th. Look at us go. Who was Wendell the cereal mascot? Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Somehow we still know this information despite forgetting why we walked into rooms. Then comes the question that starts breaking brains: What does the “com” in .com actually stand for? Rafe goes with “communication.” King Scott thinks “company.” Moon correctly lands on commercial, because apparently after decades of typing web addresses, one person in the room finally bothered to understand what any of it means. The trivia chaos continues with questions about Heineken, the 2006 St. Louis Cardinals and one of the most important cereal discoveries of our time: Cap'n Crunch apparently has an actual name. Horatio Crunch. Good for Horatio. Glad somebody finally gave the Captain the respect he deserves. Round two somehow gets worse. Which country contains more than half of the world's natural lakes? What's the only internal human organ capable of regenerating itself? Who originally hosted America's Got Talent? Which fast-food chain helped introduce Tater Tots? And then Rizz makes Moon and Rafe physically write down how many zeros are in a quadrillion. Moon arrives at 15. Rafe ALSO WRITES DOWN 15 ZEROS… …and then says 16 out loud. That is the kind of unforced error this daily comedy show was built upon. Nothing quite compares to successfully solving a problem and then personally changing your own correct answer into the wrong one. The crew wraps things up by guessing attendance at the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series race at Worldwide Technology Raceway. Moon guesses 39,000. Rafe throws out 80,000. The actual answer lands between them at 57,000, giving everyone one final opportunity to demonstrate that estimating crowd sizes is basically just guessing jelly beans in a jar for adults. So today's episode has everything you could possibly need: Rotten.com nostalgia, Hotmail archaeology, terrible email addresses, Cinnamon Toast Crunch lore, Tater Tot history, St. Louis Cardinals trivia, NASCAR math and grown men discovering what “dot com” means approximately three decades after the internet became popular. We used to think the early internet was making us smarter. Turns out we were mostly waiting 12 minutes for a picture to load.

If aliens landed on Earth tomorrow, would humanity unite to welcome our new extraterrestrial neighbors… or would we immediately start arguing about who owns the spaceship? You already know the answer. This episode of The Rizzuto Show begins with a perfectly reasonable hypothetical: UFOs have landed and aliens are officially confirmed to be on Earth. How are you feeling? Curious? Terrified? Mostly annoyed that the 24-hour news cycle will somehow make it the third-biggest story of the afternoon? The crew dives into UFOs becoming UAPs, government disclosures, Bob Lazar, Area 51 and whether actual extraterrestrial visitors could finally unite humanity. Rafe thinks having one common alien enemy might finally turn us all into citizens of Earth. Moon isn't buying that optimism and figures we'd probably start fighting over which country gets custody of the aliens before they even get out of the ship. Sounds about right. Back on Earth, St. Louis is getting a little Hollywood treatment with The Streak, a sports comedy filming locally about Caltech's legendary basketball team snapping a 310-game losing streak. The production needs roughly 1,800 volunteer extras for basketball crowd scenes, meaning you too can spend five hours waiting around for your glorious half-second of blurry cinematic immortality. At least they're bringing stand-up comedians in to entertain the extras between takes. Then we enter conspiracy territory with Tropical Storm Dolly. Yes, shortly after Dolly Parton's passing, the next named Atlantic storm happens to be Dolly. No, they didn't name it after her. Yes, the names were already determined. And yes, people online are still turning it into a conspiracy because apparently coincidence was removed from the Internet's vocabulary sometime around 2017. It's the kind of discussion a comedy podcast was genetically engineered to handle. The show also remembers the incredible Tim Curry, looking back at everything from The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Clue to Home Alone 2, Congo and his nightmare-fueling performance as Pennywise in the 1990 TV adaptation of It. Somehow that horrifying sewer scene aired on network television and an entire generation of children was simply expected to sleep afterward. The '90s were built different. Crap on Celebrities brings even more chaos: the Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni legal saga, Jamie Foxx discussing changes made to Django Unchained, a Quentin Tarantino-written Cliff Booth project, the original Sandlot cast reuniting for Dugout Dads, and the revelation that Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez grew up to become a firefighter. There is also a detour into a bizarre 2015 incident involving actor Mike Vitar because apparently even The Sandlot can't survive this show without us finding something weird. Ozzy Osbourne is getting his own Halloween Horror Nights attraction, Boston is celebrating 50 years with previously unreleased demos, Eric Clapton and John Mayer have a limited-edition guitar collection benefiting Clapton's recovery center, and Rupert Grint is returning as an adult Ron Weasley on Broadway. It's celebrity news, music news and pop culture commentary delivered with the level of professionalism you've come to expect from people debating alien treaties earlier in the episode. But then comes the real scientific research: Who has the most aura? According to an online ranking of effortless presence, charisma and coolness, Keanu Reeves sits at number one. Number two? Jesus. That's correct. According to the Internet, Keanu Reeves has officially edged out Jesus in aura. John Cena, Willem Dafoe, Christian Bale, Tupac, Robert Downey Jr., Matthew McConaughey, Michael Jackson, Jim Carrey, The Rock and Henry Cavill also make appearances as the crew debates who actually deserves to rank among humanity's most effortlessly cool people. Michael Jackson at number eleven? Rafe has questions. And frankly, so should you. Finally, the crew returns to Dolly Parton's remarkable legacy and the mountain of projects she left behind, including products, productions and even a song intended for release around her 100th birthday. Meaning Dolly apparently planned her content calendar farther into the future than most of us have planned lunch. Aliens. UFO conspiracies. Tim Curry. Dolly Parton. Hollywood. Ozzy. The Sandlot. Celebrity gossip. And Keanu Reeves defeating the Son of God in an online aura ranking. That's your comedy podcast for the day. Humanity might not be ready for aliens. We're apparently barely ready for a celebrity aura poll. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

There are moments in life when you realize society has reached a crossroads. This episode contains several of them, but the kindergarten Oreo scandal might be the one that finally breaks us. The Rizzuto Show kicks things off by remembering Tim Curry, his legendary career, and the unfortunate timing of losing another beloved celebrity during an already emotional week. That leads the crew into the important question of who could possibly fill the role of a universally beloved celebrity these days. Adam Sandler gets consideration, Jeff Bridges enters the conversation, and eventually Keanu Reeves emerges as a pretty strong candidate because apparently quietly eating ice cream and being a decent human being now qualifies you for sainthood. Fair enough. Then everybody gets nostalgic about childhood discipline, which quickly becomes less “remember the good old days?” and more “should somebody have called somebody?” The crew remembers wooden spoons, belts, Hot Wheels tracks, fly swatters, soap in the mouth and the terrifying parental phrase that basically meant your afternoon plans had been canceled. It’s another wholesome trip down memory lane from your favorite funny podcast, assuming your memories involve calculating the trajectory of a leather belt like you’re working for NASA. Next stop: Burning Man, where the crew investigates the return of the infamous adults-only dome after last year’s wind-related disaster. There are rules now: IDs, consent, no recording devices and, most importantly, no singles strolling in alone. Which naturally launches a completely necessary discussion about whether two buddies could simply pretend to be a couple to get through the door. Journalism is alive and well. Things somehow become more respectable when we arrive in Tulsa, where authorities are searching for a mysterious serial defecator accused of targeting businesses while dressed in an ensemble involving tiny underwear, a shower cap, a modified mask and Crocs. The most damning detail? The Crocs apparently weren’t in sport mode. That’s how you know this guy fears neither God nor law enforcement. And then comes Oreogate. A kindergarten mom reportedly asks the other parents to stop packing Oreos because her daughter gets upset when other kids have them. No allergy. No medical issue. Just the brutal realization that another five-year-old has cookies and you do not. When the other parents refuse to reorganize their children’s lunches around this international crisis, Mom considers switching schools. Over Oreos. Meanwhile, the kid starts trading for them anyway, proving once again that kindergarten cafeterias are basically tiny prisons with better wall art. The crew debates school-lunch currency, Double Stuf superiority, Golden Oreos, questionable specialty flavors and the economic insanity required to consider changing schools because Nabisco has destroyed the peace. There are even pickle-flavored Oreo-adjacent horrors entering the studio, because apparently talking about terrible cookies wasn't enough—we needed witnesses. It’s celebrity talk, childhood trauma disguised as nostalgia, weird news, Burning Man logistics, criminal fashion analysis and one kindergarten snack dispute treated with roughly the seriousness of an international trade embargo. Just another funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show, where the biggest lesson of the day is simple: pack whatever you want in your kid’s lunch and keep everybody else out of it. Especially Michelle.

Dolly Parton, OnlyFans millions, the internet’s sketchiest glory days, trailer park memories, a $50 million phone call, the return of Greek Fire, and grown adults getting absolutely dismantled by elementary-school math. Somehow, that’s all one episode of The Rizzuto Show. The show starts on a more emotional note as the crew remembers Dolly Parton and the kindness, humor, generosity, and unmistakable personality that made her such a beloved icon. Unfortunately, Rizz had recently expressed concern about Dolly’s health, which means listeners immediately dust off the completely scientific and legally airtight Rizz Show Curse and start blaming him. The emails arrive. The accusations fly. Rizz maintains his innocence. Nobody believes him. Lern shares what Dolly meant to her growing up, the crew revisits some of Dolly’s funniest moments, and for a brief shining moment, The Rizzuto Show experiences genuine human emotion. Then we start talking about trailer parks. Because of course we do. After a mobile-home community gets unfairly dragged into headlines surrounding the arrest of 49ers owner Jed York, the crew clears up what actually happened—and that sends everybody barreling into stories about growing up around mobile homes. We get Rafe’s single-wide childhood, homemade deer-skull decor, Lern’s surprise taxidermied boar head, wood-burning stoves, freezing bedrooms, tornado shelters, questionable carpet, decks built onto decks, and enough rural engineering to make HGTV quietly leave the room. From there, things get even more sophisticated with toilet paper, padded toilet seats, an aggressively powerful handheld bidet, National Dog Day, dog breeds, genetically modified animals and the looming possibility that humanity will eventually build Jurassic Park despite having several movies explaining why we absolutely should not. Then it’s time to discuss the modern economy. OnlyFans has reportedly paid creators $30 billion since launch, including billions in 2025 alone. Sounds like easy money—until the crew discovers just how tiny the percentage of million-dollar creators actually is. Naturally, this inspires an extremely serious business discussion about celebrity accounts, niche content, and whether there’s an untapped market for shirtless men vacuuming their houses. Please do not put that idea into a business plan. The conversation then heads back to the simpler, uglier and significantly more dangerous internet of our youth: MySpace, Napster, mp3.com, GeoCities, eBaum’s World, ICQ, AOL chat rooms, Fark, The Chive and Chatroulette—the website Rafe accurately describes as Russian roulette with considerably worse odds. Moon remembers Story of the Year hitting number one on mp3.com with “Until the Day I Die” before the site disappeared, and everybody remembers when the internet felt less like an algorithm trying to sell you something and more like a bunch of weird digital neighborhoods where nobody’s parents had any idea what their children were doing. Which, in retrospect, was maybe not ideal. The nostalgia continues into physical media, old video games, vintage magazines, classic barbershops, and the slow realization that future antique stores might be pretty boring when everything we own is technically a license stored on a server somewhere. There’s also entertainment gossip, Rizz admitting he’s spent years pretending he’s seen Donnie Darko, and then Moon drops the big announcement: Greek Fire is returning to the stage for its first headline show in seven years, with new music and a show at Delmar Hall. And because this daily comedy show still hasn’t caused enough intellectual damage, we finish with the Rizz Quiz. First, the crew tackles a $50 million hypothetical: if someone offered you $50 million tax-free to call somebody right now, and you only get the money if they don’t answer, who are you calling? The answer around the studio is basically King Scott. Congratulations, Scott. Your inability to answer a phone is finally an asset. Then callers take on 45 seconds of supposedly easy trivia. Colors. Animals. Geography. Third-to-fifth-grade math. The sort of questions every adult thinks they could answer until a timer starts ticking and suddenly 60 divided by 6 is zero, 8 times 4 is 36, 18 plus 22 is 50, and a dollar apparently contains 50 nickels. The Rizz Quiz remains undefeated. So this episode has everything: a heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton, the Rizz Show Curse, trailer park vindication, taxidermy, dangerous bathroom equipment, OnlyFans economics, internet nostalgia, Chatroulette trauma, disappearing physical media, Greek Fire’s return, a hypothetical $50 million payday, and basic arithmetic publicly humiliating grown adults. In other words, another completely normal episode of The Rizzuto Show. Come for the funny celebrity gossip and weird news. Stay for the St. Louis chaos, nostalgic stories, Rizz and the gang roasting each other, and the comforting knowledge that no matter how bad your day is going, at least you probably know that 60 divided by 6 is 10. Probably. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show. Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.

We begin Episode 24 with one of those hypothetical questions that immediately exposes exactly how much faith you have in the people around you: Someone offers you $50 million cash, tax-free. All you have to do is call someone. If they don’t answer, you get the money. Who are you calling? For the Rizz Show crew, the answer becomes obvious very quickly: King Scott. The man apparently treats incoming phone calls like suggestions. Rizz is already mentally spending his $50 million because King Scott never answers. Moon is apparently another safe bet, and the conversation quickly turns into an intervention about why Scott’s phone is always on Do Not Disturb—especially with a very pregnant wife at home. Probably time to turn the ringer on, buddy. If not, apparently the rest of The Rizzuto Show is prepared to raise the child. It takes a village, and unfortunately this is the village available. Then it’s time for the Rizz Quiz, where contestants get 45 seconds to answer as many supposedly simple questions as possible. One wrong answer immediately stops the clock. We’re talking third-to-fifth-grade territory: basic math, colors, geography, animals, planets and other information most adults confidently assume is still stored somewhere inside their brains. That confidence does not survive this comedy show. Janelle starts strong with pink, 30, LEGO and 366 days in a leap year before the phrase “natural satellite” completely derails the operation. The answer was the moon. Instead, we get a curse word and an early exit. Chris comes in ready to work—and apparently ready to work with the loudest calculator ever manufactured. He gets through Harry Potter, pentagons, Florida, multiplication, McDonald’s and subtraction while everybody tries to figure out whether he’s playing the Rizz Quiz or doing taxes on a Texas Instruments from 1987. Then Craig absolutely cooks. Milk. Spider legs. Mars. Division. Elephants. Inches. Gravity. Multiplication. Hawaii. Addition. Helium. The man puts up 11 correct answers, which in this game basically makes him Ken Jennings. Bill gets one chance to dethrone him. First question: What animal is known as man’s best friend? Dog. Second question: What is 60 divided by 6? Zero. And that’s it. Craig wins Blues home-opener tickets while Bill presumably begins a long and painful reconciliation with the number 10. Round two begins with Brittany taking on a piano, decades, Antarctica and basic multiplication. Eight times four? 36. Nope. The crew also realizes some questions have returned from the previous day, giving Rizz a chance to see whether anybody actually learned anything from Simpleton Trivia. Spoiler: education remains a work in progress. Then Columbia Jeff steps up and cruises through colors, subtraction, human anatomy, triangles, Mario, multiplication and geography. How many nickels make one dollar? 50. Suddenly Rizz feels much better about his own previous nickel-related failure. This isn’t just trivia anymore. This is Rizz redemption. Another Jeff enters the arena and successfully handles penguins, division and Canada before 18 plus 22 becomes… 50? Math claims another victim. Finally Ethan gets the last shot. He works through stop signs, Washington, D.C., division, dolphins and rainbow colors before getting tangled up in a question about the force behind ocean tides. And that’s the Rizz Quiz experience in a nutshell: everything seems insultingly easy until the music starts, a timer is running and suddenly you’re staring into the abyss wondering whether 18 plus 22 has always been 50. This comedy show proves once again that basic math becomes advanced calculus when someone puts you on the radio. The Rizz Quiz isn’t difficult. Your brain is just a coward.

Remember when the internet was fun? Not useful. Not safe. Definitely not well designed. But fun. We kick things off with the absolutely bonkers financial numbers coming out of OnlyFans, including the reported $30 billion paid to creators since launch and $6.3 billion paid out in 2025 alone. Sounds like everybody should immediately quit their jobs, right? Well, maybe hang onto that health insurance. The show crunches another number: out of roughly 5 million registered creator accounts, only 5,076 have earned more than $1 million on the platform. Suddenly the “easy money” plan starts looking suspiciously like every other entertainment career. Naturally, this becomes a discussion about celebrity OnlyFans accounts, what exactly people are paying for, whether there’s a male market for the platform, and the apparently untapped economic potential of vacuuming your house without a shirt on. Business school, but worse. Then the funny podcast nostalgia machine kicks into gear as Riz asks everybody to remember the websites and apps from the early days of the internet. MySpace. Napster. GeoCities. eBaum’s World. ICQ. Strong Bad. Fark. The Chive. Chatroulette. Especially Chatroulette. Rafe perfectly describes the difference between Russian roulette and Chatroulette: Russian roulette gives you one bad chamber out of six. Chatroulette basically reversed those odds. The crew remembers AOL chat rooms, asking strangers “ASL?”, making actual friends online before anybody’s parents understood what was happening, and the glorious period when the internet felt like a collection of weird little neighborhoods instead of six giant companies demanding that you accept cookies. Moon also takes us back to mp3.com and the early days of the internet changing the music business. Story of the Year’s “Until the Day I Die” actually reached the top of the site’s download rankings, beating massive songs from artists including Nelly, Eminem and Evanescence right before mp3.com disappeared. So technically Moon retired as champion. Please respect the belt. The nostalgia continues when the crew gets into Sony and PlayStation reminding consumers that digitally purchased games are licensed rather than truly owned. That means no physical copy sitting on the shelf, no lending your game to a buddy, no selling it later and fewer weird little pieces of physical media surviving long enough to show up in an antique shop 40 years from now. Which somehow leads directly into vintage Playboy magazines. Obviously. Rafe and Riz remember the old-school barbershops where guys sat around, dirty jokes flew freely, every haircut was basically the same haircut, everything smelled like Barbicide and there might just be a Playboy sitting in the waiting area. Rafe remembers the legendary six-dollar haircut at Tally’s Barbershop in Du Quoin, Illinois, while the crew tries to determine whether “barbicide” sounds more like disinfectant or a felony committed against someone’s hair. This funny podcast then shifts into Crap on Celebrities, where the crew covers Kiss selling its brand rights, developments surrounding the Tupac murder trial, Taylor Momsen joining surviving members of Soundgarden for an NFL halftime performance, upcoming comedy documentaries, Glenn Close defending Kim Kardashian, and the planned return of the Donnie Darko universe. That’s also where Riz finally confesses something: He has never seen Donnie Darko. He has, however, apparently spent years pretending he has. Honestly, knowing there’s a creepy bunny and an airplane engine is probably enough to fake your way through 80% of conversations about that movie. The entertainment rundown also includes Ryan Gosling producing a new live-action Flintstones project before Lern closes things out with a tribute to Dolly Parton—remembering her humor, philanthropy, Imagination Library, enormous generosity and ability to take criticism without ever losing sight of exactly who she was. And then comes the announcement Moon has been sitting on for years. Greek Fire is returning to the stage. Moon announces a headline show at Delmar Hall on Saturday, October 17—the band’s first headline show in seven years. They’ll play new material ahead of a larger release planned for next year, with Native Monster joining them and a portion of every ticket sold supporting Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital as part of the Rizz Show October fundraiser. Moon promises full-blown rock theater. Riz promises “hardness.” We were extremely close to ending this episode professionally. So there it is: OnlyFans economics, dead websites, sketchy chat rooms, mp3.com glory, digital ownership, vintage Playboys, barbershop jokes, entertainment gossip, Dolly Parton and Greek Fire finally returning. Another funny podcast that started with financial analysis and ended with Riz discussing hardness. Harvard Business Review could never.

We have some explaining to do. The episode begins with Riz waking up to some major news. Obviously, he assumes everyone is talking about the Becky Thatcher, the first new riverboat joining the St. Louis riverfront fleet in nearly four decades. Nobody is talking about the riverboat. They’re talking about Dolly Parton. After the show had recently discussed concerns about Dolly’s health, the news of her death arrives—and listeners immediately activate the long-running Rizz Show curse. The inbox fills with variations of “YOU KILLED DOLLY.” Riz insists he did no such thing. The audience has apparently already held a trial and reached a verdict. What follows is a genuinely emotional remembrance of Dolly, particularly from Lern, who talks about growing up in a family of women who adored her and what Dolly represented as a funny, strong, generous woman who never seemed interested in punching down. The crew discusses the flood of tributes, her influence, her sense of humor and the strange feeling when an icon dies and suddenly your entire social feed becomes one giant memorial. They also revisit Dolly’s legendary sense of humor through her old Letterman Top 10 appearance and a story about her attitude on the set of Steel Magnolias. It’s heartfelt, funny and a reminder that occasionally this daily comedy operation is capable of experiencing an actual human emotion. Don’t get used to it. Because we immediately pivot to the continuing saga involving the 49ers owner and the mobile-home community that got unwillingly dragged into headlines surrounding his arrest. Turns out the Wheat Hill Mobile Home Community would like everybody to know something very important: THEY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. According to the discussion, the mobile-home park was simply where he happened to pull over during the police operation. It wasn’t part of the sting. Nobody was operating anything out of one of the trailers. The neighborhood just had the misfortune of becoming the funniest possible location to put in a headline. Our apologies to Wheat Hill. Naturally, this clarification leads to approximately half an hour of the crew discussing mobile homes. Rafe explains growing up in a single-wide in southern Illinois with five people, where mounted deer were apparently standard interior design. Except his family couldn’t necessarily spring for full taxidermy, so Dad would clean the skull, mount the antlers and put the whole thing on a homemade wooden arrowhead. HGTV has been suspiciously quiet about this aesthetic. Lern remembers the time a giant taxidermied boar head unexpectedly arrived at her family home while her dad was away. Her little sister declared it a monster, Mom immediately banned it from civilized society, and now the boar apparently lives in the dark storage section of the basement waiting for somebody to make one wrong turn at night. Obviously, the show wants it for the office. Then Moon and Rafe provide an unexpectedly thorough education in mobile-home expansion. First you get the trailer. Then comes the lattice. Then the deck. Then another room. Maybe a wood-burning stove. Another deck. Perhaps an above-ground pool with a deck around that. Keep going long enough and the original mobile home becomes the chewy nougat center of an entire residential compound. Rafe also remembers winters when the back of his family’s trailer got so cold they hung a blanket across the hallway, fired up the wood stove and everybody slept in the main room. There are old Formica tables. Ancient carpet capable of producing immediate rug burn. Indoor cigarette smoke. Storm shelters. Tornado theories. Wind chimes. Lawn ornaments. Shot-up road signs—allegedly. Abandoned farm equipment. Old horse trailers. And a neighbor who apparently kept woodworking after losing enough fingers that maybe the universe was trying to send a message. It becomes a weirdly affectionate trip through rural childhood, poverty and the things families do to turn whatever they have into a home. Eventually, this daily comedy episode escapes Trailer Park Memory Lane and celebrates National Toilet Paper Day, which leads to an important debate about toilet paper being too soft. Then Rafe describes encountering a handheld bidet sprayer with enough water pressure that incorrect usage could apparently result in a medical evacuation. There’s also the nostalgic horror of padded toilet seats, because nothing says “luxury bathroom” quite like sitting on a cracked vinyl cushion that has seen generations of bare asses. National Dog Day brings happier territory as the crew talks about America’s popular dog breeds, mutts versus designer breeds, and why mixed-breed dogs may secretly have everything figured out. Then the conversation wanders into genetic modification and the possibility of glow-in-the-dark animals, which naturally leads Moon to conclude that Jurassic Park is inevitable and he will absolutely buy a ticket. Finally, Carrot Top enters the conversation because this show respects narrative structure about as much as a raccoon respects a locked trash can. So yes: Dolly Parton, a new St. Louis riverboat, an NFL-owner controversy, trailer-park vindication, taxidermy, tornado shelters, toilet paper, dangerous bidets, dogs, genetically modified animals and Carrot Top.

Summer is basically over, the kids are back in school, and some of them returned home looking like they’d just completed a six-month combat deployment instead of one day of algebra. Naturally, that sends The Rizzuto Show down memory lane to discuss suspiciously easy senior-year schedules, bowling classes, walking classes, movie classes, and the beautiful teenage realization that maybe calculus simply isn’t going to be part of your personal journey. NFL chaos with the story of 49ers owner Jed York and an alleged prostitution sting in East Palestine, Ohio. The crew tries to understand how a man connected to billions of dollars somehow ends up at the center of a $140 Sunday-morning situation in a mobile home community. A workplace prank involving heavy machinery that ended in tragedy. That leads into a rundown of some of the deadliest jobs in America, including logging, commercial fishing, roofing, steel work, trash collection, aviation, mining, construction, and landscaping. Suddenly sitting in a radio studio complaining about the air conditioning doesn’t seem quite as heroic. And because The Rizzuto Show can never stay on one subject for more than the medically recommended amount of time, Fujifilm sends everybody tumbling into a conversation about words that instantly reveal your age. “Videotape.” “Pocketbook.” “Slacks.” “Icebox.” “Billfold.” “Filling station.” “Supper.” Welcome to the portion of the show where everyone discovers they’re approximately 900 years old. Then it’s time to discuss the upcoming iPhone and whether spending around $1,200 on another rectangle that looks suspiciously like your current rectangle is still exciting. The show heads Back in the Day for anniversaries involving The Wizard of Oz, Bruce Springsteen’s Born to Run, Boston’s legendary debut album, Lauryn Hill, Aaliyah and more. ZZ Top plays its first show following the death of drummer Frank Beard, the crew attempts to demonstrate its vast knowledge of Quando Rondo, Ella Langley continues her monster chart run with “Choosing Texas,” and Miranda Lambert enters the conversation thanks to a songwriting story involving a kangaroo. Because sure. The Terminator 2 cast reunion also gets reviewed with all the tact and restraint you’ve come to expect from this comedy podcast. Edward Furlong gets some love, everybody realizes he was only 13 while filming the movie, and Rafe delivers the completely unnecessary observation that the reunion photo looks like “the future they were trying to prevent.” Then the show turns to a frightening story out of Columbia, Missouri, where a 21-year-old former Mizzou student suffered severe injuries after falling from the rooftop area at Harpo’s. The crew talks about what was known about the accident, the young man’s condition, and their own experiences with Columbia’s downtown, the Blue Note, Shakespeare’s, old venues, King Scott's favorite Wal Mart and the college-town scene. It’s a genuinely awful situation, and everybody’s hoping the kid pulls through. And then Simpleton Trivia arrives to destroy everybody’s self-esteem. The premise sounds insultingly easy: answer 10 common-knowledge questions in 45 seconds. Get one wrong and you’re immediately done. Callers can either take the challenge themselves for two pairs of tickets or put their faith in somebody from The Rizzuto Show and bet on—or against—them.

This episode starts with a listener trying to solve a very real problem: how to get wheelchair-accessible seating for Rizz Show Night at the Blues game when the normal accessibility option isn’t showing up for the theme-night tickets. Instead of letting Zach wander endlessly through ticketing menus designed by somebody who apparently hates convenience, Riz decides to pass the issue along and try to get him some actual help. Then the show turns to a frightening story out of Columbia, Missouri, where a 21-year-old former Mizzou student suffered severe injuries after falling from the rooftop area at Harpo’s. The crew talks about what was known about the accident, the young man’s condition, and their own experiences with Columbia’s downtown, the Blue Note, Shakespeare’s, old venues and the college-town scene. It’s a genuinely awful situation, and everybody’s hoping the kid pulls through. But because this is a funny show physically incapable of traveling in a straight line, we eventually get an update on the earlier 49ers prostitution-sting discussion. A listener from Ohio introduces the theory of a possible “Sunday brunch special,” which only creates more questions about how a wealthy NFL owner allegedly winds up at an East Palestine trailer park at 9:30 in the morning. Then comes the important question nobody else is brave enough to investigate: What kind of car are you driving into that situation? And then Simpleton Trivia arrives to destroy everybody’s self-esteem. The premise sounds insultingly easy: answer 10 common-knowledge questions in 45 seconds. Get one wrong and you’re immediately done. Callers can either take the challenge themselves for two pairs of tickets or put their faith in somebody from The Rizzuto Show and bet on—or against—them. What could possibly go wrong? Everything. Chris steps up first and is immediately asked how many days are in a leap year. His answer? 365. Goodbye, Chris. Thanks for playing. Matt looks unstoppable. Hours in two days? 48. Capital of the United States? Washington, D.C. Sides on a stop sign? Eight. South Pole? Antarctica. He’s cruising toward victory until Rafe asks what color you get when you mix red and yellow. Green. Orange. It’s orange. Then Tom makes the smartest decision anybody makes during the entire game: bet against Lern. She powers through skin, inches, Mercury, multiplication and Thanksgiving before the trees show up. Pine tree? Deciduous? Evergreen. Congratulations, Tom. You have successfully weaponized our stupidity for free Blues tickets. Mark tries next and comes flying out of the gate powered by Pepsi and Red Bull, which sounds medically questionable but strategically promising. He handles math, directions, colors, decades and elephants before being asked which state is known as the Sunshine State. California. Damn. Then a caller decides to trust Riz. This goes spectacularly well for roughly zero seconds. His first question: how many nickels make $1.25? And thus “25, damn” joins “California, damn” and “deciduous, damn” in the rapidly expanding Simpleton Trivia Hall of Shame. Surely Moon can save the reputation of the funny show, right? A caller puts his faith in Moon because Moon hasn’t let him down in five years. Even worse, the caller wants Blues tickets so he can take his daughter to her first Blues game. The emotional stakes are unnecessarily high. Everybody tells him not to tell the kid yet. Moon starts strong. Seven times eight? Sand makes glass? Bald eagle? Caterpillars become butterflies? Springfield? Then Rafe asks how many months have 31 days. Moon says five. It’s seven. Somewhere, an imaginary child begins crying in study hall. There’s one final shot at redemption when Miranda puts her faith in Moon for AC/DC and Foo Fighters tickets so she can take her nine-year-old son to his first show. Again, everybody immediately makes this far more emotionally devastating than a morning-radio trivia game has any right to be. Moon crushes the equator, 50 states, rubies, multiplication, frogs, Canada, spider legs and photosynthesis. Then comes bread. What’s the main ingredient? Yeast? Water? Flour. The game is over, dignity is dead, and Tom—the guy who had the good sense to bet against the show—is basically the only person walking away happy. This funny show has once again proven something important: never underestimate common knowledge, never trust a radio personality with your child’s concert dreams, and if you’re offered the opportunity to bet against The Rizzuto Show, maybe take it. Deciduous. Damn. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show. Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.

Nikki Glaser kicks off the show with a birthday message for Rizz, which is probably the classiest thing that happens for the next 43 minutes. Because immediately after that, this comedy podcast gets back to the story everybody has questions about: the San Francisco 49ers owner getting busted in an alleged prostitution sting at a trailer park in East Palestine, Ohio. At 9:30 in the morning. On a Sunday. The crew tries to reverse-engineer exactly how somebody with hundreds of millions of dollars winds up in this situation. Was this the final stop of an all-night bender? Did he wake up Sunday morning ready to make terrible choices? How fast does an online prostitution appointment work? Apparently it’s like checking into urgent care, except your insurance company has significantly more questions. That leads to an even more important investigation: how does a police department decide who goes undercover as the prostitute? Is getting picked flattering? Is not getting picked insulting? Somehow Miss Congeniality, ugly-character casting, Marla Hooch, Home Alone, Cry-Baby, Jonah Hill, Rebel Wilson and Johnny Depp all get dragged into the conversation. Then it’s time to discuss the upcoming iPhone and whether spending around $1,200 on another rectangle that looks suspiciously like your current rectangle is still exciting. The show heads Back in the Day for anniversaries involving The Wizard of Oz, Bruce Springsteen’s Born to Run, Boston’s legendary debut album, Lauryn Hill, Aaliyah and more. Then Crap on Celebrities brings the pop-culture buffet nobody asked us to curate. ZZ Top plays its first show following the death of drummer Frank Beard, the crew attempts to demonstrate its vast knowledge of Quando Rondo, Ella Langley continues her monster chart run with “Choosing Texas,” and Miranda Lambert enters the conversation thanks to a songwriting story involving a kangaroo. Because sure. There’s also a Wendy Williams documentary on the way, which naturally leads to revisiting her infamous Statue of Liberty fainting incident and several other moments from daytime television history. We get TV cancellations, Harry Potter casting talk, massive movie box-office numbers, and news that Paramount is developing a sequel to How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. The Terminator 2 cast reunion also gets reviewed with all the tact and restraint you’ve come to expect from this comedy podcast. Edward Furlong gets some love, everybody realizes he was only 13 while filming the movie, and Rafe delivers the completely unnecessary observation that the reunion photo looks like “the future they were trying to prevent.” Then we meet celebrities who somehow function without smartphones. Christopher Walken doesn’t have a cell phone or use email. Christopher Nolan prefers a landline. Elton John goes without a phone. Michael Cera uses an actual camera. Meanwhile, most of us get nervous if our battery drops below 30%. Birthdays follow, complete with Alexander Skarsgård, Jodi Messina, Claudia Schiffer, Tim Burton, Rob Halford, Gene Simmons, Tom Skerritt and a detour into the days when watching a really long movie required two VHS tapes. Children, ask your grandparents. And then Rafe's arm enters the chat. After roughly 30 weeks of allergy shots because he is apparently allergic to the entire planet, Rafe reveals that his weekly appointment came with a new threat: The Smelly Waiting Room Guy. This man’s body odor was so aggressive that Rafe abandoned the waiting room and sat in the hallway despite being required to stick around after his shots. What follows is a full workplace-level investigation into human stink etiquette. When are you obligated to tell someone they smell? How does a manager have that conversation? Do you blame their shoes first? Can coworkers become “smell blind” to one another? What happens when you put perfume on top of funk and accidentally create an entirely new biological weapon? This comedy podcast finally reaches the conclusion society has apparently been afraid to admit: sometimes somebody just needs to tell you that you stink. No heroes. No lessons. Just onions.

Summer is basically over, the kids are back in school, and some of them returned home looking like they’d just completed a six-month combat deployment instead of one day of algebra. Naturally, that sends The Rizzuto Show down memory lane to discuss suspiciously easy senior-year schedules, bowling classes, walking classes, movie classes, and the beautiful teenage realization that maybe calculus simply isn’t going to be part of your personal journey. From there, this funny podcast takes a hard turn into NFL chaos with the story of 49ers owner Jed York and an alleged prostitution sting in East Palestine, Ohio. The crew tries to understand how a man connected to billions of dollars somehow ends up at the center of a $140 Sunday-morning situation in a mobile home community. There are questions. So many questions. Mostly: 9:30 in the morning?! The conversation also spirals into other professional sports owners who have spectacularly found themselves in trouble over the years, because apparently owning a franchise does not include the complimentary Common Sense Package. Then we move from bad decisions to an actual nightmare: a workplace prank involving heavy machinery that ended in tragedy. That leads into a rundown of some of the deadliest jobs in America, including logging, commercial fishing, roofing, steel work, trash collection, aviation, mining, construction, and landscaping. Suddenly sitting in a radio studio complaining about the air conditioning doesn’t seem quite as heroic. This funny podcast also heads to Death Valley, where extreme heat turns a stranded-car situation deadly, before traveling approximately 8,100 feet up Mount Fuji for our unofficial Father of the Year competition. A dad hiking with his children reportedly decided his exhausted seven-year-old could wait alone on the mountain while Dad and the other child continued toward the summit. Rain? Fog? Early morning? Giant mountain? Details, details. Police eventually ordered Dad to abandon the climb and go back for his kid, proving once again that some parenting advice really should not require law enforcement. And because The Rizzuto Show can never stay on one subject for more than the medically recommended amount of time, Fujifilm sends everybody tumbling into a conversation about words that instantly reveal your age. “Videotape.” “Pocketbook.” “Slacks.” “Icebox.” “Billfold.” “Filling station.” “Supper.” Welcome to the portion of the show where everyone discovers they’re approximately 900 years old. It’s another funny podcast packed with weird news, sarcastic humor, NFL shenanigans, daily comedy, St. Louis nonsense, questionable life choices, and the kind of conversations that begin somewhere reasonable before wandering directly into traffic.

The crew kicks things off with the 100-inning softball game supporting the Burton family, where Rafe and Scott discover that 12 straight hours of softball is apparently something human beings willingly participate in. There were legitimate athletes, Chris Kerber brought the stories and good Blues energy, and Team Rizz did what Team Rizz does best: proudly represent athletic mediocrity while somebody else actually knows how to play the sport. Moon, meanwhile, spent his weekend in Los Angeles with Goldfinger for their biggest headlining show ever at the Hollywood Palladium. Between the packed hometown show, backstage chaos and trying to juggle approximately every person he has ever met in Southern California, Moon also wanders into Amoeba Music and suddenly finds himself standing next to Matt Berry. His carefully prepared celebrity interaction consists basically of realizing, “Holy crap, that’s Matt Berry,” which honestly is probably better than anything the rest of us would've managed. Delays pile up, passengers get increasingly irritated, everyone lines up to board…and the entire plane waits for one missing flight attendant. When she finally arrives, Moon witnesses a level of leisurely strolling that probably should’ve been studied by scientists. Hundreds of angry passengers? Connecting flights on the line? Whatever. She had a walking speed and she was committed to it. Rizz heads the opposite direction for a father-son road trip to the University of Arkansas and finally experiences the roadside cathedral known as Buc-ee’s. Unfortunately, he discovers that Buc-ee’s contains one fatal flaw: other people. Lots and lots of other people. He battles the crowd, buys a Cuban sandwich that immediately disintegrates inside the car and ultimately reaches the devastating conclusion that Buc-ee’s is basically a bigger Wally’s. Somewhere, a beaver just felt a disturbance in the Force. So yes, this episode has softball, Chesterfield sociology, Goldfinger, Matt Berry, airport rage, Buc-ee’s, college nostalgia and weather-induced emotional manipulation. The Grand Theft Auto 6 rumor mill is firing on all cylinders. Alleged leaks suggest GTA 6 could make players actually refuel their cars, because apparently escaping the cops and committing fictional felonies wasn't immersive enough. Now we may get the authentic experience of realizing the tank is on E at the absolute worst possible moment. Naturally, Jean-Claude Van Damme doing the splits leads Lern to ask questions about male anatomy that nobody was emotionally prepared to answer. Suddenly we're discussing whether men have a “seam,” whether God is responsible for said seam, and why absolutely none of this information was included in health class. From there, Crap on Celebrities turns surprisingly philosophical when Dr. Dre and Billy Corgan land on opposite sides of the AI music debate. This comedy podcast also gets into Bret Michaels recovering from kidney stone surgery while apparently refusing to surrender his hat under any circumstances, Kacey Musgraves performing while floating on giant disco-ball truck nuts, Dolly Parton exploring avatar performances, Bonnaroo taking a year off, and St. Louis artist Slater covering Hole’s “Violet.” National Treasure 3 inches closer to becoming a real movie, and Hollywood is ready to cast King Scott in a major role. A guy scales the St. Louis Zoo big-cat enclosure, an alleged staged fender bender turns into an armed robbery and multiple police chases, and then we attempt to save everybody’s relationships with the 777 Rule. Welcome to another comedy podcast where apparently the only thing separating civilization from complete chaos is a zoo fence and a shared Google Calendar. We get into a Florissant case where suspects allegedly rear-ended a Volvo to force the driver to stop, only for the situation to turn into an armed robbery, a fight, a stolen vehicle and multiple police pursuits. Somewhere along the way, the unnamed Volvo driver becomes “Johnny Volvo,” the suspects become the “Jeep Boys,” and this comedy podcast briefly transforms into the least legally sound self-defense seminar ever broadcast. That kicks off a surprisingly thoughtful debate about whether the 777 Rule is realistic, especially when listeners point out that dates, overnight stays and vacations cost money. The crew argues that the exact numbers and activities aren’t really the point. Take a walk. Go for a drive. Pack a picnic. Hit a park. Complain together. Whatever works.

A guy scales the St. Louis Zoo big-cat enclosure, an alleged staged fender bender turns into an armed robbery and multiple police chases, and then we attempt to save everybody’s relationships with the 777 Rule. Welcome to another comedy podcast where apparently the only thing separating civilization from complete chaos is a zoo fence and a shared Google Calendar. We start locally at the St. Louis Zoo, where a man decided the normal pedestrian experience simply wasn’t immersive enough. Visitors spotted him climbing over a barrier and sitting on elevated artificial rockwork above the big-cat habitat. He never came into direct contact with the animals, nobody was hurt, and he eventually climbed back onto the pedestrian path before being detained. Naturally, the crew’s biggest takeaway is that the whole thing had enormous “I bet you won’t” energy. Also: please don’t be the person who makes the zoo build a gigantic fence because you couldn’t resist becoming part of the exhibit. Then things get significantly less goofy with a warning about staged fender-bender robberies. We get into a Florissant case where suspects allegedly rear-ended a Volvo to force the driver to stop, only for the situation to turn into an armed robbery, a fight, a stolen vehicle and multiple police pursuits. Somewhere along the way, the unnamed Volvo driver becomes “Johnny Volvo,” the suspects become the “Jeep Boys,” and this comedy podcast briefly transforms into the least legally sound self-defense seminar ever broadcast. The conversation eventually lands on a much less felonious subject: the 777 Rule for relationships. The idea is simple: every seven days, prioritize a date. Every seven weeks, spend a night away together. Every seven months, take a longer getaway. The point isn’t necessarily expensive dinners, luxury hotels or constantly disappearing to a tropical island like you’ve committed financial crimes. It’s intentionally making time for the person you’re with before work, kids, chores, schedules and general life nonsense turn you into two ships passing in the hallway. That kicks off a surprisingly thoughtful debate about whether the 777 Rule is realistic, especially when listeners point out that dates, overnight stays and vacations cost money. The crew argues that the exact numbers and activities aren’t really the point. Take a walk. Go for a drive. Pack a picnic. Hit a park. Complain together. Whatever works. The goal is to actually prioritize each other instead of realizing six months later that your most meaningful conversation recently was about who forgot to move the laundry. Moon shares how getting away with his wife to review the previous year, plan family goals and figure out priorities has become genuinely valuable. Rizz talks about those brutally busy stretches where work, kids and household responsibilities can leave couples feeling like they barely see each other. Lern points out that sometimes “the funk” simply happens when you stop spending time together. And Rafe reminds everybody that relationships are something you actively build, which is dangerously reasonable territory for this show. We also establish that the 777 Rule can become the 888 Rule, 555 Rule or whatever schedule actually fits your life. The number seven isn’t magical. The commitment is the important part. And yes, somehow this eventually leads to Naked Tuesday, hotel-room romance, cheap date ideas and the suggestion that Illinois residents apparently settle relationship problems with sunsets near a levee. We cannot stress enough that this is technically a comedy podcast. So enjoy Episode 6: zoo escapades, robbery shenanigans, relationship advice and another morning where the conversation travels approximately 900 miles without ever leaving the studio.

The Grand Theft Auto 6 rumor mill is firing on all cylinders. Alleged leaks suggest GTA 6 could make players actually refuel their cars, because apparently escaping the cops and committing fictional felonies wasn't immersive enough. Now we may get the authentic experience of realizing the tank is on E at the absolute worst possible moment. Would stolen cars come with random amounts of gas? Could you abandon one because the tank is empty? Would GTA Costco memberships get you cheaper fuel? These are the important questions being asked by this comedy podcast while the rest of society presumably does something productive. Then we discover—or rediscover, depending on how damaged everyone's memory is—the 1985 cinematic achievement known as Gymkata. The premise is magnificently stupid: take gymnastics, combine it with karate and create an unstoppable martial art. That's it. That's the movie. Olympic gymnast Kurt Thomas is sent on a dangerous mission where his greatest weapon is himself…and the conveniently placed gymnastics equipment that somehow keeps appearing whenever dozens of bad guys need to be kicked in the face. Moon reveals that Gymkata has been living rent-free in his subconscious since childhood, including scenes that still randomly appear in his dreams. This launches the crew into an extremely important celebration of the ridiculous action and sports movies of the ’80s: Rad, No Retreat, No Surrender, Best of the Best, No Holds Barred, Bloodsport and the glorious era when movie executives could apparently greenlight anything as long as somebody knew karate. Naturally, Jean-Claude Van Damme doing the splits leads Lern to ask questions about male anatomy that nobody was emotionally prepared to answer. Suddenly we're discussing whether men have a “seam,” whether God is responsible for said seam, and why absolutely none of this information was included in health class. And then Steven Seagal arrives. The crew finds audio of Seagal telling a story about being in Kazakhstan before stopping to ask, “How do you say in English…” despite being born in Lansing, Michigan. What follows is a forensic investigation into Steven Seagal's increasingly mysterious relationship with the English language, fake accents, international travel and whether spending enough time somewhere can legitimately change how you talk. From there, Crap on Celebrities turns surprisingly philosophical when Dr. Dre and Billy Corgan land on opposite sides of the AI music debate. Dre sees artificial intelligence as another creative tool, while Corgan wants absolutely nothing to do with it. Moon breaks down how producers already use loops, samples and pre-built musical elements, leading to a bigger question: where exactly does using technology stop being a tool and start becoming “cheating”? This comedy podcast also gets into Bret Michaels recovering from kidney stone surgery while apparently refusing to surrender his hat under any circumstances, Kacey Musgraves performing while floating on giant disco-ball truck nuts, Dolly Parton exploring avatar performances, Bonnaroo taking a year off, and St. Louis artist Slater covering Hole’s “Violet.” Plus, the CW dumps Miss USA and Miss Teen USA, DC apparently decides Gorilla Grodd needs a true-crime mockumentary, National Treasure 3 inches closer to becoming a real movie, and Lern takes everyone on an unsolicited but surprisingly enjoyable Whitesnake journey. Then we wrap things up with celebrity birthdays—including Dave Chappelle, Cal Ripken Jr., Steve Guttenberg and Vince McMahon—before heading toward relationship fun facts and the mysterious 7-7-7 rule. It's GTA rumors, ’80s movie nostalgia, celebrity news, music industry arguments, St. Louis chaos and several conversations that should've ended three sentences earlier. In other words: a comedy podcast. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Everybody had a weekend, and unfortunately for all of us, they came back with stories. The crew kicks things off with the 100-inning softball game supporting the Burton family, where Rafe and Scott discover that 12 straight hours of softball is apparently something human beings willingly participate in. There were legitimate athletes, Chris Kerber brought the stories and good Blues energy, and Team Rizz did what Team Rizz does best: proudly represent athletic mediocrity while somebody else actually knows how to play the sport. Then Rafe takes us inside an entirely different competitive environment: Topgolf in Chesterfield. He showed up in jeans, a T-shirt and cowboy boots while seemingly everyone else arrived looking like they had just finished a private lesson at Bellerive. The clubs are nicer. The outfits are tighter. The dads appear to work in numbers. And somewhere along the way, Rafe introduces the world to the “Chesterfield Nine,” which naturally sends the entire funny podcast into an extremely mature and thoughtful discussion about golf. Just kidding. It immediately falls apart. Moon, meanwhile, spent his weekend in Los Angeles with Goldfinger for their biggest headlining show ever at the Hollywood Palladium. Between the packed hometown show, backstage chaos and trying to juggle approximately every person he has ever met in Southern California, Moon also wanders into Amoeba Music and suddenly finds himself standing next to Matt Berry. His carefully prepared celebrity interaction consists basically of realizing, “Holy crap, that’s Matt Berry,” which honestly is probably better than anything the rest of us would've managed. Then comes the flight home. Delays pile up, passengers get increasingly irritated, everyone lines up to board…and the entire plane waits for one missing flight attendant. When she finally arrives, Moon witnesses a level of leisurely strolling that probably should’ve been studied by scientists. Hundreds of angry passengers? Connecting flights on the line? Whatever. She had a walking speed and she was committed to it. At least the delays gave Moon time to catch up on movies, leading to reviews of Michael, Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar and Tomb Raider. We also get Banana Ball confusion, because apparently baseball wasn't complicated enough and now fans can become part of the defense. Rizz heads the opposite direction for a father-son road trip to the University of Arkansas and finally experiences the roadside cathedral known as Buc-ee’s. Unfortunately, he discovers that Buc-ee’s contains one fatal flaw: other people. Lots and lots of other people. He battles the crowd, buys a Cuban sandwich that immediately disintegrates inside the car and ultimately reaches the devastating conclusion that Buc-ee’s is basically a bigger Wally’s. Somewhere, a beaver just felt a disturbance in the Force. The Arkansas trip also gives Rizz a glimpse of the college experience he never had, complete with a massive campus, tens of thousands of students and enough Walton branding to remind everyone exactly where they are. Then the show discovers “sunshine guilt” — that weird feeling that you're wasting your life because it's gorgeous outside and you dared to remain indoors. Finally, a funny podcast willing to defend your constitutional right to sit inside watching television while nature aggressively tries to shame you through the windows. Moon gets it. Rizz refuses to be bullied by sunshine. Lern is basically medically prescribed to go outside. And somehow chopping wood in a cowboy hat enters the conversation. So yes, this episode has softball, Chesterfield sociology, Goldfinger, Matt Berry, airport rage, Buc-ee’s, college nostalgia and weather-induced emotional manipulation. Basically a normal Monday around here.

Apparently one Friday show wasn’t chaotic enough, so this episode brings together sports-radio confusion, Banana Ball insanity, celebrity disasters, '90s music nostalgia, Taylor Swift fandom, and an emotional goodbye that briefly forces The Rizzuto Show to experience genuine human feelings. Gross. The crew is coming off its takeover of The Fast Lane, where St. Louis sports-radio listeners turned on their radios expecting serious sports analysis and instead found… us. Confused texts start rolling in, Moon commits the apparently unforgivable crime of discussing soccer, and everyone discovers that sports-talk fans approach radio hosts with roughly the same restraint they bring to yelling at referees. From there, we head to Busch Stadium for the Savannah Bananas and the wonderfully ridiculous world of Banana Ball. No bunting. Batters can steal first. Ball four turns into a sprint. Fans can record an out by catching a foul ball. There’s a Golden Batter. There are bizarre tiebreakers. Basically, somebody looked at baseball and asked, “What if this moved faster and people actually had fun?” That naturally sends us down the Steve Bartman rabbit hole, where we discover the infamous baseball was eventually purchased, publicly blown up and—because humanity had apparently not done enough—its essence was incorporated into pasta sauce. Sports fans remain completely normal. We also get into Rizz’s upcoming first trip to Buc-ee’s, the Gathering of the Juggalos, a drug bust involving a man with the incredibly discreet nickname Blunt Man, speeding, road rage and those tiny towns where the speed limit suddenly drops just in time for a police officer to welcome you personally. Then nostalgia attacks. A forgotten Rollins Band song sends Rizz straight back to the '90s, MTV and Beavis and Butt-Head, leading to an appreciation of Henry Rollins as perhaps the only man capable of delivering inspirational wisdom while looking permanently furious about it. Rafe even discovers the perfect soundtrack for the closet he apparently cries in. Once Crap on Celebrities gets rolling, things become significantly more expensive and legally complicated. Foo Fighters are joining AC/DC for a huge St. Louis show, which is incredible news right up until everyone remembers they’ll eventually have to escape the parking lot. The crew also digs into the Michael Jackson biopic sequel, developments surrounding the Tupac murder case and reported Diddy allegations, questions surrounding changes to Biggie’s mother’s will, and Dane Cook revisiting the brutal discovery that his own brother embezzled millions from him. Nothing says family like alleged financial crimes. There’s also God of War casting drama involving Dave Bautista, a public service announcement about a movie Moon thinks is absolute garbage, and a rundown of famous actors who reportedly couldn’t stand each other while filming some of Hollywood’s most beloved romances. Turns out all that incredible on-screen chemistry might occasionally just be two attractive people professionally suppressing rage. And then Courtney Diamond — aka Eight Ball — comes home. The former Rizzuto Show intern joins the crew ahead of the final TaylorMade tribute to Taylor Swift show, closing a chapter that grew into 45 performances across 28 cities. Courtney talks about knowing when it was time to end TaylorMade, remembering the nerves surrounding the first show and making sure the project went out while everyone involved still loved what they were doing. Things get dangerously sincere when Courtney reflects on her time working with the show and tells Rizz that one of the lessons she carried with her was watching him treat people well and thank her for her work every day as an intern. Don’t worry. Everyone immediately starts making jokes before Rizz can develop an emotion. Courtney also explains how a die-hard Def Leppard and '80s hair-metal fan became a massive Taylor Swift fan, why Swift’s songwriting won her over and where even a dedicated Swiftie draws the line when it comes to merch drops, album variants and the Taylor Swift business machine. Then we enter the terrifying world of parasocial fandom. The crew debates fans driving 12 hours just to stand outside a celebrity wedding, Courtney admits to incorporating some Def Leppard sightseeing into her honeymoon, and even one of the biggest Swifties we know arrives at an important conclusion: Some Swifties need to chill. Finally, Courtney looks ahead to the emotional final TaylorMade performance and talks about what it feels like to deliberately close something she’s spent years building. She doesn’t know exactly what comes next—and for once, nobody needs to turn that into a five-year plan. It’s sports, weird news, celebrity gossip, music memories, St. Louis chaos, Taylor Swift, Juggalos, Banana Ball, family betrayals, emotional farewells and enough wildly unnecessary side conversations to remind everyone why The Rizzuto Show remains your daily comedy destination. Basically, we laughed, we learned, we almost had feelings, and somewhere along the way Blunt Man got arrested. Another productive day.

We’re getting dangerously sincere on today’s funny podcast, because former Rizzuto Show intern Courtney Diamond — better known around these parts as Eight Ball — is back in the studio before closing one enormous chapter of her life. Courtney’s TaylorMade tribute to Taylor Swift is performing its final show at Delmar Hall, ending a run that grew far beyond where it started. Over the course of TaylorMade, Courtney and the band performed 45 shows across 28 cities, taking the production from its first nervous night at The Wildey Theatre to venues and audiences around the country. Courtney explains that there wasn’t one giant dramatic reason. Sometimes you just know when it’s time. More importantly, she wanted TaylorMade to end while everyone involved still loved doing it. Apparently “leave while you still enjoy each other” is an option. Somebody should tell every band that has announced a fourth farewell tour. She remembers the pressure surrounding TaylorMade’s first performance and the moment she heard the crowd erupt before she even walked onstage. What started with nerves turned into something much bigger, especially for the young Taylor Swift fans who came dressed for the occasion—and the dads sitting off to the side pretending they absolutely weren’t getting into it. Naturally, Rizz and Rafe immediately improve Courtney’s carefully planned final show by pitching an ending involving Rafe dressed as Travis Kelce carrying her offstage. Things then get suspiciously heartfelt when Rizz asks Courtney how working at The Rizzuto Show affected her life. She credits her time in radio with making her tougher and talks about learning from Moon, Jeff and Lern before revealing something that nearly destroys the entire sarcastic ecosystem of the program: Rizz taught her something genuinely meaningful. Courtney remembers Rizz thanking her for her work at the end of the day when she was an intern and says the experience taught her that no matter how successful you become, you should still treat people well. Everybody quickly makes jokes before Rizz experiences a recognizable human emotion. Thank God. Then we get into the contradiction that makes Courtney’s Taylor Swift obsession even better: she’s a die-hard '80s hair-metal fan with a Def Leppard tattoo who generally doesn’t care for modern pop music. Courtney explains why Swift’s songwriting broke through her rock-and-roll defenses, particularly the storytelling and honesty in her lyrics. That inevitably launches the crew into another debate surrounding the business empire attached to Taylor Swift. Variants. Exclusives. Merch drops. Swifties monitoring website changes like NORAD watching the sky. Courtney understands the criticism surrounding the relentless merchandising while also making a fairly important point: nobody is physically forcing you to buy the fifteenth version of an album. Being a Swiftie apparently requires both emotional stamina and a functioning household budget. The funny podcast then dives headfirst into parasocial fandom following the massive attention surrounding Taylor Swift’s wedding. Courtney gives her perspective as an actual hardcore fan, including her surprise over aspects of the guest list and the sheer spectacle surrounding the event. Rizz, meanwhile, remains fascinated by fans who drove enormous distances just to stand outside. One mother drove 12 hours from Indianapolis with her daughter to be near the celebration despite having no actual access to the wedding. In extreme heat. After getting the kid out of bed at 2:00 in the morning. Rizz has some thoughts. Courtney admits she understands a little bit of celebrity tourism. Her own honeymoon included visiting Def Leppard-related locations around Sheffield and convincing her extremely patient husband to drive around a village on the off chance they happened to spot bassist Rick Savage. Finally, the conversation returns to the reason Courtney is there—the final TaylorMade show. She explains why knowing the ending was coming gave her time to appreciate the last year, how bittersweet the final performance feels, and why she’s both excited and devastated to say goodbye. It’s an episode about knowing when to close a chapter, appreciating what you built, fandom getting completely out of control and discovering that underneath all the sarcasm, The Rizzuto Show might actually care about each other. Disgusting. Just the kind of emotional damage you expect from your favorite funny podcast. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

It’s Friday on The Rizzuto Show, which means this comedy podcast is landing the plane with music nostalgia, celebrity chaos and enough questionable information to ruin several perfectly good movies. First, Rizz gets ambushed by his own shuffle when a Rollins Band song he hadn’t heard in roughly 25 years suddenly comes back from the dead. That launches the crew into Henry Rollins memories, MTV, Beavis and Butt-Head, Black Flag, Lollapalooza and the fascinating contradiction that is Henry Rollins: an inspirational motivational speaker who always looks like he’s about three seconds away from yelling at a parking meter. Some of the crew remembers the song. Some absolutely do not. Rizz insists everybody needs to listen to it. Rafe now apparently has new music for the closet he cries in. Great start. Then it’s time for Crap on Celebrities, where Foo Fighters joining AC/DC in St. Louis continues to be enormous news. Dave Grohl explains just how much AC/DC influenced him, while everyone tries to figure out what happened to The Pretty Reckless and whether the lineup change was designed to give ticket sales another shot of adrenaline. Either way, September 8 is shaping up to be massive. Unfortunately, so is the parking nightmare. From there, celebrity news takes the wheel and immediately drives directly into a ditch. The upcoming Michael Jackson biopic sequel is expected to tackle the controversial later years of his life. The ongoing Tupac Shakur murder case raises new questions about alleged connections to Sean “Diddy” Combs. Then Biggie’s family enters an estate fight after changes were reportedly made to his mother’s will shortly before her death. Nothing brings a family together quite like hundreds of millions of dollars. We also get new music releases, Dr. Phil lawsuit news and one of the uglier family betrayals in comedy history. Dane Cook’s documentary revisits his rise to superstardom and the revelation that his own brother, who handled his finances, embezzled roughly $12 million. Imagine becoming one of the biggest comedians in America and still discovering the most expensive heckler was sitting at Thanksgiving dinner. The entertainment rundown keeps rolling as Yellowjackets heads toward its final season and Dave Bautista takes over as Kratos in Amazon’s God of War. The original actor had already gotten himself ridiculously ripped for the role before suffering a torn bicep and losing the job, which is one of those stories that makes your bad week seem slightly more manageable. Then Moon performs an important public service by warning everybody away from a movie he describes, with tremendous critical nuance, as a total piece of crap. You’re welcome, America. And because apparently we haven’t damaged enough childhood memories, Lern brings in a list of famous movie and TV couples who reportedly hated each other while working together. Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey had issues before Dirty Dancing. Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn clashed on Four Christmases. Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams reportedly needed a screaming match while making The Notebook before eventually dating in real life. Julia Roberts and Nick Nolte? Apparently not exchanging Christmas cards. Claire Danes wasn’t thrilled with Leonardo DiCaprio’s behavior on Romeo + Juliet, Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny went through rough stretches on The X-Files, and Sarah Silverman had her own memorable confrontation with Michael Richards on Seinfeld. Romance is alive, everybody. We finish with celebrity birthdays before the Friday tradition manages to make things uncomfortable one last time, because this comedy podcast refuses to simply arrive at the weekend like a normal program. It’s forgotten music, rock news, celebrity gossip, Hollywood feuds, ridiculous show-business money, St. Louis entertainment and enough sarcastic humor to make HR quietly close the browser tab. In other words, another perfectly normal episode of your favorite comedy podcast. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny show where every perfectly reasonable conversation eventually gets dragged into an alley and beaten senseless by five people with microphones. We’re coming off our takeover of The Fast Lane, and apparently not everyone received the memo. The ESPN audience showed up expecting sports talk and instead got us, leading to confused texts, angry sports fans and the crew slowly realizing that sports-radio listeners chirp hosts the same way they chirp players from the stands. Honestly, we respect the commitment. Moon even dared to discuss soccer in St. Louis, which naturally went over calmly and rationally with everyone. Obviously. With that historic broadcasting achievement behind us, we immediately announce record ratings, retire undefeated and turn our attention to the Savannah Bananas coming to Busch Stadium. And this is where baseball gets weird. We break down Banana Ball rules, including no bunting, batters potentially stealing first, sprinting after ball four, the Golden Batter, bizarre tiebreakers and the glorious rule where a fan catching a foul ball can actually record an out. Finally, buying a glove as a grown adult has consequences beyond your friends making fun of you. That sends us directly into Steve Bartman history, because why stay on topic? We revisit the infamous Cubs foul ball, discover what eventually happened to the baseball and learn that people detonated the thing before incorporating its essence into pasta sauce. Sports are healthy. Then there’s Skate Laborious. Three years after the fire, organizers are fighting to preserve the remaining church structure and transform it into an open-air skate park. Naturally, our contribution to the discussion is deciding this sounds like an '80s movie where a group of lovable misfits has to save the rec center from The Man. Cue the rollerblades. That somehow leads to Rad, Gleaming the Cube, BMX dancing, Lori Loughlin, Christian Slater and the realization that the '80s could turn literally any recreational activity into a feature film. Rizz is also heading toward Arkansas and preparing for another major milestone: his first trip to Buc-ee’s. This launches the important Buc-ee’s vs. Wally’s debate, recommendations involving Beaver Nuggets and brisket, and a surprisingly heated discussion about whether you can leave your vehicle sitting at a gas pump while wandering around a convenience store the size of Rhode Island. Meanwhile, the Gathering of the Juggalos is happening in Missouri, which brings us one of the least surprising headlines in human history: a massive drug bust involving a gentleman known as Blunt Man. Yes. Blunt Man. A man allegedly associated with a “One Stop Shop” supplying the festival had even received a promotional shout-out from Violent J. Somehow subtlety did not prevail. The ensuing discussion includes an enormous list of seized drugs, plans for a possible Rizz Show expedition to the Gathering and the very sensible conclusion that nobody should attempt this without a qualified Juggalo Sherpa. From there, this funny show tackles another subject where everyone believes they’re correct: speeding. How far over the limit is acceptable? Is ten over basically the unofficial speed limit? Why do tiny towns suddenly drop from highway speeds to 35 mph directly in front of what appears to be their entire police department? Lern admits that aggressive drivers can activate her own personal highway-vigilante mode, while everyone shares speeding-ticket stories and their individual theories about what cops will actually tolerate. It’s sports, St. Louis stories, weird news, nostalgia, road rage and several conversations that should have ended much sooner than they did. In other words, exactly what you came for from a funny show that continues proving nobody should give us this much microphone time.

The morning begins with Lern trying to figure out whether Hubbard Media has a sewage problem or whether she personally needs to reevaluate some life choices. Thankfully, the mystery quickly leads us to Florida, where somebody learns one of nature’s most important rules the hard way: do not jump on a manatee. Especially when you haven’t taken the time to determine whether said manatee is, you know… alive. Rizz remembers the beautiful bonding experience of having baby vomit deposited directly into his mouth. Moon recalls an athletic encounter with an impressive amount of dog poop. And then Rafe casually unlocks a repressed memory from his days working in surgery that probably should’ve stayed repressed. There’s gangrene. There’s a sterile operating room. There’s vomiting. There’s mint extract that arrives WAY too late. At one point, breakfast officially files for divorce. Eventually, Rizz attempts to drag this funny podcast out of the biological danger zone by choosing joy. Unfortunately, he’s Rizz, so even his daughter thanking him for making dinner turns into an existential crisis involving garlic, dementia, stuffed animals, retirement in Florida, and an imaginary future son-in-law handling his estate. Normal father-daughter stuff. Then we actually get GOOD NEWS. St. Charles runner Emma Kessler thought she’d be tackling a half marathon without her boyfriend Jason, who repeatedly insisted running wasn’t his thing. Turns out Jason had secretly trained for months so he could surprise her and run alongside her. It’s sweet. It’s supportive. Nobody gets covered in anything. Naturally, Rizz’s immediate concern is that this man is making every other partner look terrible. Apparently Gen X isn’t going to enough concerts, so today we’re solving the live music industry one folding chair and bottle of ibuprofen at a time. A concert promoter asking what it would take to get Gen X back out to shows. The answers? Bring back physical tickets. Give us cleaner bathrooms. Stop making everything cost approximately one kidney. Fine bands for showing up late. And while we’re making demands, how about concerts that start at 3 p.m. and wrap by 6 so everybody can be home, showered and questioning their life choices before the evening news? The crew gets into the bigger problem facing live music right now, from third-party ticket sellers and ridiculous resale prices to mid-level artists trying to survive while fans blow their entire entertainment budget on one or two giant shows. Foo Fighters are stepping in to open for AC/DC in St. Louis, which leads to the very important question of how long the Foo Fighters actually get to play when they’re technically the opener. There’s also an update on Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell and his continued battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The Jack White and Charley Crockett drama continues after Twin Temple was removed from dates on Crockett’s tour. Jack White defended the band, Crockett fired back, White responded with a bizarre musical troll, and suddenly everybody is keeping track of who released more albums. Rafe likes Crockett’s music but would also like everyone involved to calm down and simply make songs again. Then Demon Hunter enters the chat. The Christian metal band is suing over the KPop Demon Hunters name, arguing that the massive Netflix property and its live-event expansion could create confusion with their long-established band. King Scott once saw the band demon hunter perform KPOP. The Missouri State Fair has given us many things over the years, and today we can add freeze-dried pickles capable of removing every drop of moisture from the human body to the list. Then we return to one of the most important educational developments of our generation: Fart Corner. The teacher whose classroom fart corner went viral has responded to all the attention and clarified her intentions. Apparently, kids today have significantly less shame about letting one rip in class, so she created a designated location where students can handle their business and return to society. Fart Corner is now also The Gas Station. Then it’s time for King Scott to host Matchup With Moon, and whatever intellectual credibility remained in the studio immediately leaves through the emergency exit. Rizz and Moon battle through trivia involving the longest-running television game show, Walter Mondale, the PGA Hall of Fame, malware and the Rice Krispies mascots before King Scott drops the Millard Fillmore tiebreaker. Round two somehow gets worse. The guys tackle the undefeated Miami Dolphins, continents, Louis Armstrong, bowling terminology and the origin of Spam. “Spiced ham” should have been easy, but instead we get guesses including separated ham, spectacular meats, special mail and surplus meat. Then comes the Great Bowling Debate of 2023. Another episode of daily comedy from The Rizzuto Show. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

The Missouri State Fair has given us many things over the years, and today we can add freeze-dried pickles capable of removing every drop of moisture from the human body to the list. Episode 233 begins with Rizz bringing in freeze-dried pickles his wife picked up at the Missouri State Fair. The crew loves pickles. The crew loves snacks. What could possibly go wrong? Well, they look like packing peanuts, dissolve in your mouth and contain enough salt to make you feel like you’ve swallowed ocean water. Moon immediately wants another one. Rafe loves them. Scott practically needs to leave the room. And Rizz, the man who brought this sodium-based building material into work, wants absolutely nothing to do with them. Welcome to daily comedy at The Rizzuto Show, where even eating a pickle requires a postgame analysis. Then we return to one of the most important educational developments of our generation: Fart Corner. The teacher whose classroom fart corner went viral has responded to all the attention and clarified her intentions. Apparently, kids today have significantly less shame about letting one rip in class, so she created a designated location where students can handle their business and return to society. There’s even been a rebrand. Fart Corner is now also The Gas Station. Surely that’ll make middle schoolers take it seriously. This sends the crew into a completely unnecessary but surprisingly passionate discussion about whether fart shame is actually an important part of childhood development. Rizz thinks a little shame has value. Rafe wonders whether forcing someone to physically walk across the classroom to Fart Corner actually creates MORE shame. Lern points out that kids already smell bad enough. And Moon is forced to revisit the childhood classroom fart that has apparently been living rent-free in his brain for decades. Moon remembers the room. He remembers the chairs. He remembers the embarrassment. He remembers EVERYTHING. Some people remember their first kiss. Moon remembers the acoustics of a plastic chair. Then it’s time for Matchup With Moon, and whatever intellectual credibility remained in the studio immediately leaves through the emergency exit. Rizz and Moon battle through trivia involving the longest-running television game show, Walter Mondale, the PGA Hall of Fame, malware and the Rice Krispies mascots before King Scott drops the Millard Fillmore tiebreaker. Moon confidently announces that Fillmore came after Lincoln… and then lands on 1949. Millard Fillmore actually became president in 1850. Only missed it by a century. That’s within radio-show margin of error. Round two somehow gets worse. The guys tackle the undefeated Miami Dolphins, continents, Louis Armstrong, bowling terminology and the origin of Spam. “Spiced ham” should have been easy, but instead we get guesses including separated ham, spectacular meats, special mail and surplus meat. Then comes the Great Bowling Debate of 2023. Moon answers that a bowling “mark” means a spare. The actual definition includes a strike or a spare. Is Moon correct? Is he partially correct? Does the word “or” save him? Should Rizz win? Should nobody win? Why are grown adults litigating bowling vocabulary like there’s prize money on the line? Suddenly Lern is arguing semantics, Rafe is researching bowling terminology, listeners are taking sides and the studio has become a deeply stupid courtroom. This is daily comedy exactly as nature intended: freeze-dried food experiments, weird news, childhood humiliation, terrible trivia, St. Louis radio chaos and grown adults taking an argument about bowling significantly more seriously than necessary. By the end, Moon admits his answer may have been incomplete, Rizz immediately declares victory, and “no backsies” becomes the final legal precedent. Another successful morning. Another friendship barely surviving. Another episode of daily comedy from The Rizzuto Show. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Apparently Gen X isn’t going to enough concerts, so today we’re solving the live music industry one folding chair and bottle of ibuprofen at a time. Episode 112 kicks off with a concert promoter asking what it would take to get Gen X back out to shows. The answers? Bring back physical tickets. Give us cleaner bathrooms. Stop making everything cost approximately one kidney. Fine bands for showing up late. And while we’re making demands, how about concerts that start at 3 p.m. and wrap by 6 so everybody can be home, showered and questioning their life choices before the evening news? Welcome to the future of rock and roll: chairs. The crew gets into the bigger problem facing live music right now, from third-party ticket sellers and ridiculous resale prices to mid-level artists trying to survive while fans blow their entire entertainment budget on one or two giant shows. Rafe even pitches a concert subscription model where fans could pick shows from different tiers. Honestly, this comedy podcast may have accidentally stumbled into a legitimate business idea, which is deeply concerning. Then Crap on Celebrities arrives with enough music news to make everyone forget we were complaining about concerts five minutes earlier. Foo Fighters are stepping in to open for AC/DC in St. Louis, which leads to the very important question of how long the Foo Fighters actually get to play when they’re technically the opener. There’s also an update on Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell and his continued battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. From there, we enter one of our favorite genres of entertainment: successful musicians arguing with each other on the Internet. The Jack White and Charley Crockett drama continues after Twin Temple was removed from dates on Crockett’s tour. Jack White defended the band, Crockett fired back, White responded with a bizarre musical troll, and suddenly everybody is keeping track of who released more albums. Rafe likes Crockett’s music but would also like everyone involved to calm down and simply make songs again. Naturally, the crew decides celebrity boxing may be the only mature solution. Then Demon Hunter enters the chat. The Christian metal band is suing over the KPop Demon Hunters name, arguing that the massive Netflix property and its live-event expansion could create confusion with their long-established band. Moon actually has history with that music scene, which means for approximately four minutes this show accidentally becomes informative. Don’t worry. We recover. There’s also new testimony surrounding the Tupac Shakur murder case, a conversation about Sons of Anarchy stars reuniting for a bizarre meta-series, and a trailer for Whale Fall that sends everyone directly into claustrophobic nightmare territory. The movie involves a scuba diver getting swallowed by an 80-foot sperm whale and trying to escape before his oxygen runs out. Lern’s reaction to this horrifying premise? Maybe watching it will help her prepare in case she ever gets swallowed by a whale. That’s preparedness you simply won’t get from other podcasts. We wrap things up with Jason Statham’s latest movie accidentally appearing online early, John Stamos apparently deciding clothes are optional, and a Robert Plant birthday celebration that turns into Zeppelin, solo Plant, giant '80s hair and the invention of the word “plantiness.” So yes, this comedy podcast begins with concert economics and ends with Robert Plant’s plantiness. That feels about right. It’s another morning of St. Louis comedy, music news, entertainment gossip, pop culture commentary and sarcastic humor from Rizzuto and the gang — the comedy podcast where no topic survives contact with the studio.

Welcome to Episode 66, where the parking lot smells like raw sewage and somehow THAT is the least disgusting thing we discuss. The morning begins with Lern trying to figure out whether Hubbard Media has a sewage problem or whether she personally needs to reevaluate some life choices. Thankfully, the mystery quickly leads us to Florida, where somebody learns one of nature’s most important rules the hard way: do not jump on a manatee. Especially when you haven’t taken the time to determine whether said manatee is, you know… alive. What follows is Mother Nature delivering one of the fastest and grossest examples of karma we’ve ever encountered. And because this is a funny podcast run by adults who allegedly know better, the conversation immediately becomes a competition over the nastiest things anyone has ever gotten on themselves. Rizz remembers the beautiful bonding experience of having baby vomit deposited directly into his mouth. Moon recalls an athletic encounter with an impressive amount of dog poop. And then Rafe casually unlocks a repressed memory from his days working in surgery that probably should’ve stayed repressed. There’s gangrene. There’s a sterile operating room. There’s vomiting. There’s mint extract that arrives WAY too late. At one point, breakfast officially files for divorce. We also discover that the infamous “blue waffle” is an Internet hoax, which is terrific news for anyone who survived the early Internet and somehow never bothered to verify that until adulthood. Eventually, Rizz attempts to drag this funny podcast out of the biological danger zone by choosing joy. Unfortunately, he’s Rizz, so even his daughter thanking him for making dinner turns into an existential crisis involving garlic, dementia, stuffed animals, retirement in Florida, and an imaginary future son-in-law handling his estate. Normal father-daughter stuff. Then we actually get GOOD NEWS. St. Charles runner Emma Kessler thought she’d be tackling a half marathon without her boyfriend Jason, who repeatedly insisted running wasn’t his thing. Turns out Jason had secretly trained for months so he could surprise her and run alongside her. It’s sweet. It’s supportive. Nobody gets covered in anything. Naturally, Rizz’s immediate concern is that this man is making every other partner look terrible. The crew also looks back at teenage summer jobs — camp counseling, landscaping, mall jobs, mowing lawns, hauling hay, food service and all the other character-building employment our parents lovingly forced upon us. With fewer teenagers working summer jobs than when the crew was growing up, we ask whether kids are missing an important rite of passage. Rafe’s solution? Basically draft every 16-year-old into retail or food service. Honestly, one summer behind a register might improve society overnight. Episode 66 is funny podcast chaos in its purest form: weird news, gross stories, St. Louis conversation, parenting failures, questionable childhood employment and the kind of morning-show tangents that begin with sewage and somehow end in labor statistics.

Hump Day arrives with a surprise nobody saw coming—especially King Scott, who walked into what he thought was another perfectly normal Hubbard Radio meeting and instead found a full-blown baby shower waiting for him. Balloons? Check. Barbecue? Absolutely. Enough diapers to make every parent in the room experience a traumatic flashback? You bet. Lern deserves special recognition for successfully stalling King Scott by basically throwing every conversational emergency she could think of at him until the surprise was ready. Nothing suspicious about suddenly needing to discuss your entire medical history and possibly the Old Testament inside a radio booth. Then Rafe reports back from Outlaw Music Festival, where his long-running mission to get aboard Willie Nelson’s tour bus once again encountered the minor obstacle of Willie Nelson being protected like the President of Texas. Rafe breaks down the impressive lineup, including Stephen Wilson Jr., Things somehow get more uncomfortable when Rizz shares some old high-school gossip involving a former student eventually dating one of her former teachers. That launches a much bigger conversation about age differences, authority, small-town dating pools and exactly how long after graduation something stops being weird.

Some teachers have reading corners. Some have quiet corners. One brave educator looked at her classroom and decided what these children really needed was a designated fart corner. And that’s where today’s funny podcast begins. The concept is simple: if a kid needs to let one rip, they walk over to a specific corner of the classroom, handle their business, spray a little air freshener and quietly return to their seat while supposedly “nobody pays attention.” Sure. Because elementary school children are famously discreet and would NEVER keep a running leaderboard of who visited the fart corner the most. The crew immediately identifies several flaws in this educational breakthrough, including the unfortunate student whose desk is closest to ground zero, the acoustical advantages of ripping one near a wall, and the absolute certainty that some confident kid will turn the fart corner into Madison Square Garden. Moon also relives an eighth-grade fart incident involving a plastic chair, Trisha and a level of emotional damage that apparently survived well into adulthood. The lesson? It’s not the fart. It’s the confidence behind the fart. Then, because apparently science had nothing more urgent to solve, the show dives into a massive flatulence study involving thousands of participants and hundreds of thousands of logged farts. Men versus women. Peak farting hours. Historical fart estimates. And yes, “anal tracking devices,” a phrase we sincerely hope never appears on the company expense report. Rafe even revisits his proposed radio game involving everyone recording their own farts so listeners can guess whose is whose. Management’s continued refusal to greenlight this important broadcasting innovation remains baffling. Thankfully, St. Louis Blues broadcaster Chris Kerber joins the show to restore professionalism. That lasts approximately four seconds. Kerber weighs in on fart-corner logistics, airflow, acoustics and the important parental responsibility of teaching your children to laugh at flatulence. Then the conversation shifts to how Chris managed to get himself kicked out of a University of Louisville parents Facebook group. His crime? Suggesting that a college student who wanted to know whether anyone downstairs was watching a football game could perhaps… walk downstairs and find out. Apparently this was too radical for the safe space. That launches a full discussion about helicopter parenting, college move-in season and parents asking Facebook whether their 18-year-old should wear a robe or a towel back from the dorm shower. Chris and Moon agree on a revolutionary parenting strategy: sometimes your adult child can figure stuff out. Rizz is preparing to take his 16-year-old to tour the University of Arkansas, so Kerber offers actual useful advice among the chaos: check out the dorms, investigate the dining options and pay attention to whether the campus simply feels right. The hockey talk continues with the newly unveiled St. Louis Blues promotional calendar, including the upcoming Rizz Show Night jacket, which might legitimately be one of the best giveaways the show has done. Kerber breaks down the limited nature of theme-night tickets, the upcoming shortened NHL preseason and the excitement building around the new season. Then listener emails take this funny podcast somewhere completely different. A former escort and sugar baby writes in after hearing the crew’s previous conversations about dating for money and offers to answer their questions. Naturally, the room immediately generates approximately 700 of them. How much money? What was off-limits? Was sex always involved? How do repeat arrangements end? When do you tell a serious partner about that part of your past? Did you feel safe? Did you pay taxes? Rafe, meanwhile, wants to know whether there was a Groupon. Journalism. Another listener from Metro West Fire Protection District offers to help the crew with CPR training and car-seat installation, which somehow results in Rafe claiming he ordered a RealDoll to practice CPR. Lern immediately populates his imaginary house with Rhonda, Susan, Dolly and Reba, and now apparently Rafe hosts brunch for a collection of synthetic roommates. We’re sorry too. Finally, the crew tackles a hypothetical: What if you could choose one food that your body would treat as perfectly healthy forever? Pasta enters the arena. Chocolate-chip cookies arrive, although Moon repeatedly describing his ideal cookie as “wet” and “sweaty” causes unnecessary suffering. Lern chooses cake. Rafe starts negotiating the definition of pasta. Donuts make a late push. Rizz eventually lands on pizza. The rules get debated harder than most federal legislation before the conversation arrives at the true battleground: National Potato Day. French fries? Tater tots? Hash browns? Sweet potatoes? Russets? And Rafe delivers perhaps the most important culinary observation of the episode: A tot is basically a hash-brown marshmallow. This funny podcast has fart science, college-parent chaos, Blues hockey, listener confessions, CPR, sweaty cookies and the opening shots of another Great Potato War. We never claimed this would make you smarter. We claimed it would make your commute weirder. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Welcome to Missouri, where the booze is conveniently located, the dispensaries are plentiful, and buying a car on Sunday is apparently where society decided to establish some boundaries. Episode 41 kicks off with Rizz and Moon embracing their new identities as BMW owners ahead of a BMW-sponsored golf tournament. Surely the logo on the hood counts as a parking credential, right? Lern attempts to explain concepts like “parking passes” and “hang tags,” but luxury has changed these men. They’ve seen the badge. They know what they’re worth now. From there, this comedy podcast investigates what outsiders notice when they first arrive in Missouri. Is it the rolling green landscape? The hills? The beautiful scenery? Nope. It’s the ability to walk into a grocery store and buy hard liquor like a civilized Midwesterner. A woman new to Missouri is stunned by the accessibility of alcohol and recreational weed, which sends the crew down a rabbit hole of grocery-store liquor laws across America. Apparently some states still make you visit a separate store to purchase booze. We assume residents there spend their evenings staring sadly toward Missouri and wondering where freedom went wrong. But Missouri has its limits. You can buy liquor. You can visit a dispensary. You can apparently grab a tall boy at a gas station with concerning ease. But if you want to purchase a car on Sunday? Absolutely not, you lawless animal. The discovery of Missouri’s “blue law” leads to another revelation: Lern and Rafe enjoy wandering dealership lots on Sundays specifically because the salespeople aren’t there. Rizz finds this behavior completely alien because, according to Rizz, he loves human interaction. Moon immediately requests that the program stop lying to its audience. Then it’s time for workplace rage. A leaked video of former Detroit news anchor Taryn Asher berating a colleague launches a debate over losing your temper at work, professionalism, double standards and whether one meltdown should define somebody’s career. Naturally, this means revisiting some of broadcasting and Hollywood’s most legendary freak-outs. Chris Berman gets angry. Christian Bale goes nuclear. Bill O’Reilly encounters the phrase “to play us out” and briefly enters another dimension. The crew debates whether these blowups are understandable high-pressure moments or just adults being terrible to coworkers. Lern also shares her own battles against studio technology, proving once again that the greatest threat to morning radio isn’t declining attention spans—it’s a computer deciding at 5 a.m. that today feels like a good day to die. Then Crap on Celebrities arrives with some genuinely sad rock news: longtime ZZ Top drummer Frank Beard has died at 77. The crew looks back at the band’s massive career, their unmistakable Texas blues-rock sound, their MTV-era reinvention and the scientific fact that putting on a ZZ Top song makes you approximately 34% more likely to feel capable of winning a bar fight. It also raises an important question nobody else was brave enough to investigate: Has anyone ever seen ZZ Top wearing shorts? The comedy podcast rolls deeper into entertainment chaos with Nick Jonas revealing that he completely bombed his audition for Frozen after arriving unprepared, Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan expanding his Arizona empire with a sushi restaurant and apparently carrying the same pair of traveling chopsticks for decades, updates surrounding Tupac’s murder trial, new Queens of the Stone Age music, and the planned return of Ozzfest. The celebrity pile continues with Robin Williams’ children fighting AI-generated impersonations of their father and reactivating his official Instagram account as a source for authentic material. The crew also looks ahead to Dune: Part Three sharing a release weekend with Avengers: Doomsday, because movie theaters apparently decided December needed its own traffic apocalypse. David Krumholtz says he’s stepping away from acting after more than 30 years in Hollywood, which leads everyone into the great “I know that guy!” exercise before the conversation turns toward the tiny club of movies that have crossed $1 billion worldwide. That becomes a game of guessing the biggest box-office monsters before pivoting into actors whose careers were revived by one huge role: John Travolta in Pulp Fiction, Robert Downey Jr. in Iron Man, Keanu Reeves in John Wick, Brendan Fraser in The Whale, Bruce Willis in Die Hard and more. By the end, we’ve covered BMW privilege, Missouri liquor laws, empty car dealerships, workplace tantrums, ZZ Top, celebrity news, AI, Dune, billion-dollar movies and celebrity birthdays. And just when you think the show has reached the absolute peak of intellectual discourse, Rizz teases what’s coming next: A school has a fart corner. Education is healing.

Hump Day arrives with a surprise nobody saw coming—especially King Scott, who walked into what he thought was another perfectly normal Hubbard Radio meeting and instead found a full-blown baby shower waiting for him. Balloons? Check. Barbecue? Absolutely. Enough diapers to make every parent in the room experience a traumatic flashback? You bet. Lern deserves special recognition for successfully stalling Scott by basically throwing every conversational emergency she could think of at him until the surprise was ready. Nothing suspicious about suddenly needing to discuss your entire medical history and possibly the Old Testament inside a radio booth. From there, this funny podcast gets into the realities of impending fatherhood, cloth diapers, Diaper Genies, crying babies and the future arrival of little Ethel—also known, for reasons this child may someday resent, as Gatorade. Then Rafe reports back from Outlaw Music Festival, where his long-running mission to get aboard Willie Nelson’s tour bus once again encountered the minor obstacle of Willie Nelson being protected like the President of Texas. Rafe breaks down the impressive lineup, including Stephen Wilson Jr., Lukas Nelson and The Avett Brothers, while explaining just how seriously Willie’s team locks things down backstage. The dream of getting onto the bus is still technically alive, although at this point it may require fate, divine intervention or Rafe being rolled backstage inside a protective bubble. The concert also produces an important sociological breakthrough nobody requested: Rafe’s theory that Wranglers, cowboy boots and a cowboy hat automatically increase your attractiveness by roughly two points. The crew immediately subjects this groundbreaking research to peer review, including the crucial question of whether cowboy gear maintains its powers inside a Schnucks frozen-food aisle. This is the kind of scientific rigor you expect from a funny podcast with absolutely no scientific credentials. Things somehow get more uncomfortable when Riz shares some old high-school gossip involving a former student eventually dating one of her former teachers. That launches a much bigger conversation about age differences, authority, small-town dating pools and exactly how long after graduation something stops being weird. Listener stories arrive to make everything substantially less comfortable. Mission accomplished. Then the show heads into St. Louis-area weird news. PETA is offering a reward in connection with four guinea pigs abandoned inside exercise balls during extreme heat, leading the crew to investigate the apparently important secondary issue of what a guinea pig even costs these days. Spoiler: Rafe’s estimate suggests he has not recently participated in the guinea pig economy. Meanwhile, Walmart drone deliveries are heading toward parts of the St. Louis area, and Maplewood residents have questions about noise, birds, hacking, air traffic and whether Grandma really needs groceries descending from the heavens. That spirals into a surprisingly thoughtful conversation about technology, AI data centers and whether all these inventions supposedly designed to save us time have actually just given us more time to work. Thankfully, somebody can now order pistachios and have them lowered into the backyard by robot aircraft, so civilization clearly nailed its priorities. There’s also concern over the future of a historic Webster Groves theater, plus the incredible story of a mystery semi driver who stopped a van traveling the wrong way on I-70 and then apparently returned to his truck without waiting around for a parade. Finally, the crew discovers which car brand has some of the worst drivers, and BMW owners—including people conveniently sitting inside the studio—are forced to absorb a statistically assisted roasting involving turn signals, hair transplants, crypto and enough stereotypes to void the warranty. It’s another funny podcast packed with St. Louis stories, weird news, concert chaos, questionable theories and the kind of conversations that begin with a baby shower and somehow end with BMW slander.

We're bringing back Blockbuster, burying Columbia House and somehow ending up inside the St. Louis Cardinals draft room. Just another morning where The Rizzuto Show refuses to pick a lane. First, a guy learns how to sing a hit song completely backwards so it sounds right when reversed, which is an incredible amount of effort dedicated to something gloriously unnecessary. Then we discover Free Blockbusters — neighborhood boxes where people swap DVDs, Blu-rays and VHS tapes like Little Free Libraries for people who still remember rewinding things. That sends us straight into a funeral for Columbia House, the legendary “11 albums for a penny” operation that helped build Rizz's music collection and apparently taught an entire generation of children their first lesson in questionable financial decisions. Rizz remembers physically mailing them a penny, getting Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi, then receiving bills while possessing the unbeatable legal defense of being approximately 11 years old. Plus, Crap on Celebrities delivers another pile of entertainment gossip and pop culture commentary before we bring in someone with actual credentials and briefly destroy the show's reputation. Cardinals assistant GM of scouting and acquisition and 2006 World Series champion Randy Flores joins the crew to talk Draft365: Scouting MLB's Future Stars and give us a fascinating look at how the Cardinals identify, evaluate and draft future players. Randy breaks down the absurd odds of making Major League Baseball, what scouts see beyond analytics, why struggling can actually reveal something important about a prospect, and how the Cardinals' nationwide scouting operation works. We get into Jordan Walker, Joshua Baez, the pressure facing young athletes and why parents convinced they're raising the next MLB superstar might want to let the kid drive the dream. And with the 20-year reunion of the 2006 World Series champion Cardinals approaching, Randy looks back while also explaining why the organization's current farm system has him excited about what's coming next. So we've got Blockbuster nostalgia, Columbia House childhood crimes, weird internet talent, funny celebrity gossip and legitimate Cardinals baseball insight all crammed into one comedy podcast. Basically, we start with VHS tapes and end with MLB scouting. There was no plan. There rarely is. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Twenty years after helping the St. Louis Cardinals win the 2006 World Series, Randy Flores is back with The Rizzuto Show — except now he's sitting on the other side of baseball, helping find the players who could become the Cardinals' next generation of stars. The Cardinals assistant GM of scouting and acquisition joins this comedy podcast to talk about Draft365: Scouting MLB's Future Stars, a behind-the-scenes look at a side of professional baseball fans almost never get to see. And when we say behind the scenes, we mean it. Flores explains how roughly 23 Cardinals scouts spread across the country evaluate elite high school and college talent, how players make their way onto the organization's radar, and what happens when scouts, analysts, data engineers, performance specialists and actual human eyeballs all have to agree on which teenager might someday be standing at Busch Stadium. Turns out it's slightly more complicated than your uncle saying, “Kid's got a good swing.” Randy also explains just how absurdly difficult it is to reach Major League Baseball. The crew immediately starts Googling percentages, Rafe consults what basically becomes “Gronk AI,” and everyone arrives at the same scientific conclusion: Your odds aren't great. Even the players who get drafted were usually THE player where they came from — the best kid in their town, school or region — only to arrive in professional baseball and discover they're now surrounded by hundreds of other guys who were also the best kid everywhere they came from. Welcome to the world's most emotionally devastating All-Star team. Flores talks about seeing that firsthand after being drafted himself and walking into the Yankees system, where he realized his team was only one of several groups making cuts — inside just one organization. Multiply that by the rest of Major League Baseball and suddenly “making the show” sounds less like a career plan and more like surviving a very athletic Hunger Games. The conversation also dives into Cardinals prospects like Jordan Walker and Joshua Baez, including how the unusual COVID-era draft helped St. Louis feel confident about Walker and how adversity in the minor leagues helped prepare Baez for his eventual opportunity. And despite baseball becoming more obsessed with analytics, Randy explains why scouting still can't be reduced to numbers on a screen. Players leave home. They struggle. They get hurt. They fail for possibly the first time in their lives. Scouts aren't only evaluating what someone can do when everything is going right — they're trying to figure out what happens when baseball punches them directly in the mouth. That's where the human side still matters. For parents convinced they're currently raising the next MLB superstar, Flores also delivers some advice that may save everybody several thousand dollars and one deeply uncomfortable car ride home: if the kid is truly good enough, scouts will find them. Parents can help most by supporting the kid instead of turning every Little League game into Game 7 of the World Series. The pressure is already enormous. Kids now have rankings, social media clips and embarrassing moments that can follow them indefinitely. Randy's advice is refreshingly simple: home should still be the safe place. We also get into Randy's unusual road from an eight-year MLB career to graduate school, broadcasting, coaching, entrepreneurship and eventually a phone call from John Mozeliak asking whether he'd consider becoming a scouting director — to which Randy essentially responded, “Cool. What's a scouting director?” Career planning! Plus, Randy previews the 20-year reunion of the 2006 World Series champion Cardinals and explains what he hopes fans take away from Draft365: behind every prospect is an enormous group of people obsessively trying to keep the Cardinals' pipeline loaded with talent. By the end, Rafe wants to be scouted, Moon wants a job, Jon Lovitz's performance as a scout in A League of Their Own is finally evaluated by an actual professional, and somehow Marla Hooch helps bring the interview home. It's baseball insight, St. Louis Cardinals history and just enough nonsense to remind Randy he willingly walked into a comedy podcast. Twenty-five minutes later, we're all convinced we're getting drafted. We're not. But that's never stopped this comedy podcast before.

Remember when getting 11 albums for one penny seemed like a completely legitimate business model? Pepperidge Farm remembers. More importantly, Rizz remembers — because apparently Columbia House helped build the musical foundation of the man you hear yelling into a microphone every morning. Episode 52 starts with a guy who has somehow learned to sing a hit song backwards, melody and all, so that when the recording is reversed it sounds remarkably close to the real thing. It's impressive, unsettling, and exactly the kind of useless talent we deeply respect around here. Then nostalgia kicks the studio door off its hinges. Those Little Free Libraries have apparently evolved into Free Blockbusters — neighborhood boxes stocked with DVDs, Blu-rays and VHS tapes for people to take, trade and return. It's basically streaming for people who enjoy leaving the house and trusting strangers. Lern immediately wants one, complete with an old-school beaded curtain for the grown-up section, because apparently we're rebuilding the entire video store experience one suburban lawn at a time. And while physical media gets another tiny breath of life, the funny podcast says goodbye to an absolute legend: Columbia House. Yes. THAT Columbia House. The “11 albums for a penny” people. Also: they were apparently still around. Rizz takes us back to the golden era of putting an actual penny in an envelope, receiving a box full of music, getting bills in the mail and having the financial security of knowing, “What are they gonna do? I'm 11.” Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi helped build the Rizz starter pack, while Rafe reveals Columbia House was also apparently part of his mom's Christmas gift strategy. Nothing says “Merry Christmas” like potentially questionable mail-order accounting. Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where the crew gets into the Tupac murder trial, an upcoming Elvis hologram experience in Vegas, Gillian Anderson's truly wild teenage arrest story, celebrity divorce becoming content, a Clueless sequel series, more Fast & Furious, and Ella Langley's monster chart run. Matthew McConaughey also delivers possibly the most Matthew McConaughey story ever: getting so high before his own birthday party that he sat in his car listening to Janet Jackson over and over until the party was finished. Everybody left. Birthday over. But that song? Apparently fantastic. Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell also kick the hornet's nest by discussing extreme Disney adults, because nothing brings the Internet together like telling grown people their favorite mouse might be a red flag. Meanwhile, Ella Langley's chart domination has the crew officially becoming “Ella fellas” and wondering whether she can finally defeat one of the most powerful forces in American culture: hearing the same Mariah Carey song every December until the sun explodes. And because this funny podcast occasionally invites people who actually know what they're talking about, Cardinals assistant GM and 2006 World Series champion Randy Flores joins the show to talk baseball and the Cardinals' Draft365: Scouting MLB's Future Stars, which pulls back the curtain on scouting, drafting and finding the organization's next generation of players. So Episode 52 has everything: St. Louis baseball, celebrity gossip, physical-media nostalgia, weird Internet talent, questionable teenage financial decisions and Matthew McConaughey losing an entire birthday to Janet Jackson. Another educational installment of your favorite funny podcast. We use the term “educational” very aggressively.

Scott Rizzuto has apparently reached the stage of adulthood where there’s a 75% chance that if you contact him between 4 and 5 p.m., he’s peeling garlic. Not relaxing. Not enjoying a hobby. Peeling garlic. Meanwhile, Lern accidentally ordered enough garlic to make her house legally inaccessible to vampires, which sends the crew into garlic oil, home remedies and other advice nobody should blindly follow just because five people with microphones said it confidently. And somehow, that’s one of the more normal conversations in this comedy podcast. King Scott’s baby is getting CLOSE, which means it’s time to dig up the official baby pool and see who predicted the date, time and weight correctly. Scott says he’s about 60% ready, the go-bag exists somewhere, and the car seat installation is still hanging out on the to-do list. So basically, fatherhood is proceeding exactly according to plan. That turns into kid birthday party etiquette, whether “NO GIFTS” actually means no gifts, and the worst possible present you could give a five-year-old if your real goal is making sure the parents never invite you anywhere again. Drum set? Puppy? Gold bars? The Rizz Show remains committed to providing absolutely terrible parenting resources free of charge. Then school season arrives and brings back memories of first-day outfits, high school parking spaces, Scott spray-painting his initials onto school property like a criminal mastermind who also signed the evidence, college costs, and the crew trying to understand why Illinois keeps catching strays. But eventually we arrive at the question that could divide America: Can you drink a non-alcoholic beer at work? More specifically, what happens if your SURGEON walks into the room before your operation holding one? Technically, it’s non-alcoholic. Emotionally? Your brain has already requested another doctor. The crew runs the experiment through surgeons, pilots, school bus drivers, air traffic controllers and other professions where “don’t worry, it’s an NA” probably isn't the comforting sentence you were hoping to hear. Then Rafe introduces an equally troubling alternative: your heart surgeon walking in with a Capri Sun and struggling to get the straw into the pouch. Choose your fighter. From there, today's comedy podcast tackles low-key addictions, Rafe's mint supply, bad-breath paranoia, online shopping, Amazon delivery drivers asking customers to stop ordering cases of bottled water, and whether water baking in a brutally hot delivery truck makes that expensive alkaline stuff slightly less impressive. Then we get into homeowner association insanity, because apparently owning your house doesn't necessarily mean you're allowed to sit wherever the hell you want on it. One homeowner gets accused of doing “porch-type activity” while sitting in his garage — yes, that's apparently a category now — while another woman deals with HOA fines over a dead bush by simply spray-painting the thing green. Problem solved. Botanists hate this one simple trick. It's another comedy podcast packed with daily humor, weird news, St. Louis stories, ridiculous arguments, parenting panic and the sort of pop culture commentary that starts with a reasonable question and ends with five adults debating whether they'd trust a surgeon holding a Capri Sun. So, another productive morning at The Rizzuto Show. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Rizz officially turned 48, which means it’s time to celebrate the only way responsible middle-aged adults know how: announce that birthdays are stupid, eat olives, drink approximately nine birthday beers, stay out until 1:45 in the morning and immediately begin discussing whether birthdays should be banned altogether next year. Lern returns from Nashville after one of her favorite trips with Tim, complete with cowboy boots, Broadway people-watching and a Foo Fighters show at Nissan Stadium that was approximately three degrees cooler than walking directly into a pizza oven. She missed Queens of the Stone Age thanks to dinner running late and a forgotten phone, but made it for Foo Fighters, Shane West randomly appearing during the band's trip through its members’ musical histories, and a romantic finish listening from the pedestrian bridge while fireworks went off. Cute. Disgusting. We're happy for them. Guns N’ Roses had their own weather problems when storms forced the band to shorten the Busch Stadium show. Naturally, this leads to the important journalistic question: if you're Guns N’ Roses and rain is coming, HOW DO YOU NOT IMMEDIATELY PLAY “NOVEMBER RAIN”? We don't make the rules. Actually, apparently neither do they. Pin-Up Bowl goes from Rizz worrying nobody will show up to being absolutely packed. The special Dangler beer flows freely. Rizz receives spaghetti-and-meatball dangler earrings, another signed Don Mattingly baseball and a massive strawberry birthday cake featuring a photo of Rizz with a truly breathtaking hair situation. There's bowling, questionable decisions and eventually a migration to Delmar Hall — except for Scott, whom everyone insists they didn't abandon collectively. They merely abandoned him individually. At Delmar Hall, the Blink-182 tribute brings the hits, Bangs Against the Machine brings the Rage, Rizz keeps getting handed beverages, and eventually Mrs. Rizzuto performs the evening's most important public service by shutting down the birthday shots before somebody had to replace another shower curtain. Then comes the Quincy lottery story. Rizz brings up a movie theory that sounds just believable enough to ruin your productivity for the next hour: could The Goonies and Back to the Future take place on the exact same day? Back to the Future establishes October 26, 1985. Meanwhile, clues in The Goonies appear to place its adventure right around that same Saturday. Coincidence? Intentional cinematic universe? Evidence that Chunk was one DeLorean ride away from completely destroying the space-time continuum? We investigate with exactly the level of academic rigor you'd expect from this program. Then Brian arrives with enough food to turn the studio into a French bakery: croissants, bread, ham and Swiss, smoked deviled eggs and more. This comes after the gigantic birthday cake he'd already made for Rizz, because apparently we're now trying to see whether a radio host can be defeated entirely by carbohydrates. Nate Bargatze also sets a massive comedy ticket-sales record, sending Rafe and the crew into a genuinely interesting conversation about club comedy versus arena comedy. Rafe explains why smaller rooms create that perfect pressure cooker of laughs while superstar comics eventually reach a level where playing a 200-seat club makes about as much financial sense as opening a lemonade stand inside Costco. The entertainment conversation keeps rolling into movies, celebrity stories and eventually Brad Pitt declaring that bad acting is so distracting he can't watch porn. This results in Rafe questioning Brad Pitt's acting credentials and nearly getting thrown off the show by everyone else. The crew debates whether Pitt is actually an elite actor, just exceptionally talented at playing Brad Pitt, or both. The crew surprises him with cards carefully selected to remind him that he's old, grouchy and one year closer to death. Lern gives him a Tommy Wiseau pasta spoon. Then Rafe produces Italian rainbow cookies from Sweet Seven Layers, delivered by a New York/Jersey baker who listens to the show and apparently understands exactly how to win over a “greasy meatball” birthday boy. Sweet Seven Layers has everybody losing their minds over traditional Italian rainbow cookies, pistachio and blackberry creations, cherry amaretto and enough sugar to make Moon openly admit he's buzzing. Throw in the pastries from Le Bon Boucher and we're basically broadcasting from inside a carbohydrate emergency. Sexy Time Fun Facts arrives with a legitimately groundbreaking medical story: surgeons in Vietnam successfully performed the country's first penile transplant from a brain-dead donor. What starts as an unbelievable medical headline turns into a surprisingly thoughtful conversation about organ donation, brain death and transplant ethics. Rafe brings some firsthand perspective from witnessing organ harvesting during his previous surgical work, while Moon reflects on his own recent experience being with his father at the end of his life. A ranking of all 50 states examines factors including clubs, online communities, hotels and other indicators of an active swinging lifestyle. Florida takes the top spot because Florida apparently looked at its existing reputation and decided to lean in. Missouri lands at number 20 overall, while ranking eighth for its number of physical swinger clubs. Science apparently has an answer for how much you should reveal in your dating profile. Say too little and people assume you're sketchy. Overshare every trauma you've experienced since kindergarten and romantic interest drops. The sweet spot is the “Goldilocks bio”: enough personality and detail to seem interesting without making somebody feel like they've accidentally opened your therapist's case notes. Rafe isn't particularly interested. He'd rather meet somebody naturally and “let the universe do it,” which is adorable and therefore completely unacceptable to his coworkers. Tinder, Hinge, Bumble and Raya all enter the discussion, along with stories of celebrities appearing in people's inboxes and the realization that getting Rafe approved for Raya may require more references than getting a mortgage.

Nothing says “responsible morning radio” quite like starting the hour buzzing on Italian rainbow cookies and ending it by debating whether Rafe Williams belongs on Raya. Welcome to another funny show from The Rizzuto Show, where the crew begins this episode riding the aftermath of Rizz’s birthday food extravaganza. Sweet Seven Layers has everybody losing their minds over traditional Italian rainbow cookies, pistachio and blackberry creations, cherry amaretto and enough sugar to make Moon openly admit he's buzzing. Throw in the pastries from Le Bon Boucher and we're basically broadcasting from inside a carbohydrate emergency. Before everyone slips into a frosting coma, Rizz drops some actual useful information: Rizz Show Night with the St. Louis Blues is coming to Enterprise Center, featuring the Blues against the Colorado Avalanche and an exclusive Rizz Show Blues jacket. Even better, a portion of the special ticket benefits Operation Food Search. Look at us briefly doing something respectable. Don't worry. It doesn't last. Sexy Time Fun Facts arrives with a legitimately groundbreaking medical story: surgeons in Vietnam successfully performed the country's first penile transplant from a brain-dead donor. And there goes the respectability. What starts as an unbelievable medical headline turns into a surprisingly thoughtful conversation about organ donation, brain death and transplant ethics. Rafe brings some firsthand perspective from witnessing organ harvesting during his previous surgical work, while Moon reflects on his own recent experience being with his father at the end of his life. Naturally, the thoughtful discussion eventually becomes questions about disclosure to future romantic partners, whether transplanted anatomy could be a different color and the phrase “secret three-way with a ghost.” We almost made it. Then the funny show tackles another vital scientific question: Is Missouri properly representing itself in America's swinging community? A ranking of all 50 states examines factors including clubs, online communities, hotels and other indicators of an active swinging lifestyle. Florida takes the top spot because Florida apparently looked at its existing reputation and decided to lean in. Missouri lands at number 20 overall, while ranking eighth for its number of physical swinger clubs. Respectable? Embarrassing? A challenge for next year? The crew isn't entirely sure, although Rafe refuses to accept the possibility that Cleveland might be out-performing St. Louis in the key-party department. Civic pride comes in many forms. From swinging, we make the completely natural transition into dating apps. Science apparently has an answer for how much you should reveal in your dating profile. Say too little and people assume you're sketchy. Overshare every trauma you've experienced since kindergarten and romantic interest drops. The sweet spot is the “Goldilocks bio”: enough personality and detail to seem interesting without making somebody feel like they've accidentally opened your therapist's case notes. Which means there's only one reasonable next step. Get Rafe on a dating app for the show. Rafe isn't particularly interested. He'd rather meet somebody naturally and “let the universe do it,” which is adorable and therefore completely unacceptable to his coworkers. Tinder, Hinge, Bumble and Raya all enter the discussion, along with stories of celebrities appearing in people's inboxes and the realization that getting Rafe approved for Raya may require more references than getting a mortgage. He apparently needs Wayne Gretzky to write two letters now: one for Canada and one for Raya. Eventually the search deteriorates into increasingly specific dating platforms, FarmersOnly, JDate, theoretical sea-captain dating and Rafe's dream of becoming an aspiring jet-ski owner searching for love. Romance is alive. It's just deeply confused. From Italian cookies and St. Louis Blues hockey to medical ethics, swinger statistics and celebrity dating apps, this episode somehow covers an enormous amount of territory without developing a single useful life skill.

Some people celebrate birthdays with dignity. The Rizzuto Show celebrates them with sarcastic greeting cards, giant pastries, smoked deviled eggs, Italian rainbow cookies and a handcrafted pasta spoon featuring Tommy Wiseau. Welcome to Episode 201 of The Rizzuto Show, the comedy podcast where turning 48 apparently means your coworkers get unlimited permission to remind you that death is approaching. The show kicks off with some completely normal DuckTales appreciation before Lern proposes the crew go see Sebastian Bach, Quiet Riot and Great White. That immediately becomes a scheduling nightmare involving Rafe’s Funny Bone weekend, Moon playing Valley Park Fall Fest and Rizz trying to figure out whether everybody can somehow attend three events simultaneously. Also, Moon may or may not have dreamed about Sebastian Bach. His dreams apparently have continuity now, so that's something everyone has to live with. Then Rizz brings up a movie theory that sounds just believable enough to ruin your productivity for the next hour: could The Goonies and Back to the Future take place on the exact same day? Back to the Future establishes October 26, 1985. Meanwhile, clues in The Goonies appear to place its adventure right around that same Saturday. Coincidence? Intentional cinematic universe? Evidence that Chunk was one DeLorean ride away from completely destroying the space-time continuum? We investigate with exactly the level of academic rigor you'd expect from this program. Which is none. Then Brian arrives with enough food to turn the studio into a French bakery: croissants, bread, ham and Swiss, smoked deviled eggs and more. This comes after the gigantic birthday cake he'd already made for Rizz, because apparently we're now trying to see whether a radio host can be defeated entirely by carbohydrates. From there, Crap on Celebrities brings another avalanche of entertainment news. The crew gets into Slipknot and Sid Wilson, Stray Kids dominating the Billboard charts, the debate surrounding a potential Asian pop Grammy category, and Frankie Valli continuing to perform at 92 — which leads everyone to wonder whether Frankie is enthusiastically choosing the stage or operating entirely on decades of muscle memory. Nate Bargatze also sets a massive comedy ticket-sales record, sending Rafe and the crew into a genuinely interesting conversation about club comedy versus arena comedy. Rafe explains why smaller rooms create that perfect pressure cooker of laughs while superstar comics eventually reach a level where playing a 200-seat club makes about as much financial sense as opening a lemonade stand inside Costco. Then somebody pays $192,000 for Sophia Petrillo's purse from The Golden Girls, because apparently having money is exhausting and eventually you simply run out of normal things to buy. The entertainment conversation keeps rolling into movies, celebrity stories and eventually Brad Pitt declaring that bad acting is so distracting he can't watch porn. This results in Rafe questioning Brad Pitt's acting credentials and nearly getting thrown off the show by everyone else. The crew debates whether Pitt is actually an elite actor, just exceptionally talented at playing Brad Pitt, or both. And somehow that's still not the most disrespectful conversation of the episode. Because it's Rizz's birthday. The crew surprises him with cards carefully selected to remind him that he's old, grouchy and one year closer to death. Lern gives him a Tommy Wiseau pasta spoon. Then Rafe produces Italian rainbow cookies from Sweet Seven Layers, delivered by a New York/Jersey baker who listens to the show and apparently understands exactly how to win over a “greasy meatball” birthday boy. It's heartfelt. It's insulting. It's carb-heavy. In other words, it's the perfect Rizz Show birthday. Hair metal, ridiculous movie theories, entertainment gossip, comedy talk, celebrity arguments and enough birthday shenanigans to make HR quietly close its laptop — Episode 201 is another completely normal comedy podcast from St. Louis. If you've ever wondered what happens when grown adults combine Sebastian Bach, The Goonies, Brad Pitt, Tommy Wiseau and Italian cookies into one morning show, congratulations.

Rizz officially turned 48, which means it’s time to celebrate the only way responsible middle-aged adults know how: announce that birthdays are stupid, eat olives, drink approximately nine birthday beers, stay out until 1:45 in the morning and immediately begin discussing whether birthdays should be banned altogether next year. Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where one innocent weekend recap somehow requires an incident report. Lern returns from Nashville after one of her favorite trips with Tim, complete with cowboy boots, Broadway people-watching and a Foo Fighters show at Nissan Stadium that was approximately three degrees cooler than walking directly into a pizza oven. She missed Queens of the Stone Age thanks to dinner running late and a forgotten phone, but made it for Foo Fighters, Shane West randomly appearing during the band's trip through its members’ musical histories, and a romantic finish listening from the pedestrian bridge while fireworks went off. Cute. Disgusting. We're happy for them. Back in St. Louis, Guns N’ Roses had their own weather problems when storms forced the band to shorten the Busch Stadium show. Naturally, this leads to the important journalistic question: if you're Guns N’ Roses and rain is coming, HOW DO YOU NOT IMMEDIATELY PLAY “NOVEMBER RAIN”? We don't make the rules. Actually, apparently neither do they. Rafe also reviews a nice dinner that became considerably less sophisticated when he repeatedly ate what he thought were tiny potatoes before discovering he'd housed about seven cloves of garlic. Somewhere, a vampire crossed St. Louis County off its travel plans. Then we finally get to Rizz's Birthday Bash. Pin-Up Bowl goes from Rizz worrying nobody will show up to being absolutely packed. The special Dangler beer flows freely. Rizz receives spaghetti-and-meatball dangler earrings, another signed Don Mattingly baseball and a massive strawberry birthday cake featuring a photo of Rizz with a truly breathtaking hair situation. There's bowling, questionable decisions and eventually a migration to Delmar Hall — except for Scott, whom everyone insists they didn't abandon collectively. They merely abandoned him individually. At Delmar Hall, the Blink-182 tribute brings the hits, Bangs Against the Machine brings the Rage, Rizz keeps getting handed beverages, and eventually Mrs. Rizzuto performs the evening's most important public service by shutting down the birthday shots before somebody had to replace another shower curtain. And because this funny podcast refuses to allow one story to remain normal, Rafe encounters an extremely overserved gentleman who desperately needs transportation to St. Charles — or, as his remaining functioning brain cells pronounce it, “Saint Charola's.” Rafe gets him water, security gets involved, and somehow Rafe's name becomes “Grave.” Sure. Why not. Then comes the Quincy lottery story. The crew discusses an unverified rumor surrounding the area's massive Powerball winner and questions about whether the winner's reported probation conditions could create problems claiming the jackpot. The show makes clear that the details are speculation, which naturally does absolutely nothing to prevent everyone from imagining lawyers descending on Quincy and the winner going full Brewster's Millions with jet skis, a mansion, Kid Rock and possibly an old-timey paddle boat. Birthday parties, concerts, garlic, strangers, lottery drama and enough questionable judgment to power another broadcast — just another funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show.

What happens when you combine expired temp tags, full-contact leopards, a 7UP identity crisis, celebrity tipping drama, six Trans Ams, Burt Reynolds stories, and the real-life return of Buford T. Justice? You get The Rizzuto Show doing what it does best: taking perfectly reasonable topics and absolutely refusing to discuss them reasonably. This collection of Rizz Show chaos starts with the crew discovering they somehow won a St. Louis Magazine A-List award — despite apparently being among the last people to find out. The celebration lasts approximately long enough for Missouri’s expired temporary tags to become the next emergency, especially when Rafe admits his own tags are expired. Suddenly, the guy complaining about the system becomes the poster child for it and begins framing his procrastination as a form of peaceful protest. Gandhi had the Salt March. Rafe has paperwork sitting somewhere in his house. From there, things only get more responsible. We encounter a man accused of deploying homemade spike strips to stop people from crossing his lawn, which naturally leads to a serious legal analysis based almost entirely on Home Alone. Another story involves a driver allegedly taking “good morning” as fighting words. Creep Corner opens its doors. The Town Crier gets involved. And eventually we arrive at FULL CONTACT LEOPARDS, because apparently humans weren't generating enough bad decisions on their own. Then comes an existential crisis nobody saw coming: 7UP is changing. The legendary lemon-lime soda is going more lime-forward, sending the crew directly into an ’80s and ’90s nostalgia vortex. Suddenly we're talking about the Uncola, old 7UP glasses, Sega Genesis and the greatest red dot ever to wear sunglasses: Cool Spot. Bring him back, cowards. That trip down memory lane also resurrects Smart cars and other vehicles disappearing from the automotive landscape before Crap on Celebrities takes over. Matthew McConaughey explains how a Jennifer Lopez name-drop once helped him during a traffic stop in Mexico, Barbie sequel negotiations involve enormous amounts of money, and the crew gets into Spider-Man, Ted Lasso, Axl Rose, boring movies and whether killing a dog in a movie should automatically earn an R rating. But then we stumble into a game that could sustain this show for the next decade: Good Tipper or Bad Tipper? The crew reacts to online anecdotes about celebrity tipping involving Shaq, Post Malone, Miley Cyrus, David Lee Roth, Dave Chappelle, Scottie Pippen, JLo, Jack Black, Bruce Willis, 50 Cent, Stanley Tucci and more. Some stories restore our faith in famous people. Others give us No Tippin' Pippen, and honestly, that's enough cultural achievement for one episode. And then things go eastbound and down. Sean and Jason — the guys bringing Sheriff Buford T. Justice and Junior Justice back to life — walk into the studio looking like Smokey and the Bandit escaped the screen and wandered into The Rizzuto Show. Sean even arrives in full Buford mode with a lit cigarette. Nobody tells Sheriff Justice what to do. The guys tell the incredible story of how their Smokey and the Bandit tribute work grew from reenactments and car shows into Sheriff Justice: The Series, a prequel exploring Buford and Junior before their legendary pursuit of the Bandit. They explain how Sedalia, Missouri became the production home, why they're committed to preserving the spirit of Jackie Gleason and Mike Henry's original performances, and how the families connected to those actors have supported what they're doing. Then we get to the cars. Vintage vehicles. Classic cop cars. Period-correct backgrounds. A Trans Am personally autographed by Burt Reynolds. Oh, and Jason owns six Trans Ams, because apparently some people actually achieve their childhood dreams instead of just buying another commemorative T-shirt. Sean also shares what it was like spending a week around Burt Reynolds at a film festival shortly before Reynolds passed away. That leads to stories about Burt's legendary ability to entertain a room, his willingness to tell stories where he wasn't necessarily the hero, and why the man's combination of charisma, cowboy hats, mustaches and muscle cars permanently rewired an entire generation. The nostalgia continues with Paul Williams — Little Enos himself — immediately slipping back into character when he encountered Sean and Jason at a convention. The production stories get even crazier when we learn they filmed through a reported 123-degree heat index during a 14-hour day, because apparently recreating the 1970s also means recreating a time when workplace air conditioning was merely a rumor. And then comes the ultimate Hollywood moment: Sean looks over and realizes he has his own stunt double. That's when you know you've upgraded from “guy doing a tribute” to “guy somebody else gets paid to injure themselves pretending to be.” Naturally, none of this can simply remain an interview. The Rizz Show immediately begins campaigning for roles. Extras become possible speaking parts. Speaking parts become SAG-card dreams. Moon volunteers to protect the Trans Am. Dr Pepper and Diablo sandwiches become potential negotiating tools. At some point this stops sounding like a joke and starts sounding dangerously close to an actual plan. Across all three conversations, it's everything that makes The Rizzuto Show the beautifully unnecessary daily comedy machine that it is: St. Louis stories, weird news, celebrity gossip, nostalgia, pop culture, ridiculous arguments, movie memories, questionable decisions and grown adults becoming emotionally invested in subjects ranging from soda mascots to license plates. Come for the celebrity tipping stories. Stay for Cool Spot. Learn absolutely nothing about proper vehicle registration. Develop an unhealthy desire to own a 1977 Trans Am. And whatever you do, do not engage the leopards in full contact. It's The Rizzuto Show. We won an award, you know. Apparently.

Break out the cowboy hat, fire up the Trans Am and tell somebody we’ve got a long way to go and a short time to get there, because Smokey and the Bandit just came roaring back into The Rizzuto Show. Sean and Jason — the men bringing Sheriff Buford T. Justice and Junior Justice back to life — join us in studio to tell one of those stories that starts with people dressing up as beloved movie characters at car shows and somehow ends with cameras rolling on an actual television series. And yes, Sean enters the studio in full Buford T. Justice mode with a lit cigarette. Nobody was going to tell the sheriff no. The guys explain how their Eastbound and Down tribute work eventually led them to Sedalia, Missouri, where they realized the town had exactly the right look for the world they wanted to recreate. Enter Larry Parham, a former police officer who apparently possesses the supernatural ability to make anything happen. Location scouting? Done. Production help? Done. Playing the mayor? Sure, why not. They call him the Wishmaster, which is both an incredible nickname and the exact person every production desperately needs. Jason also reveals the extremely reasonable fact that he owns six Trans Ams. Six. Somewhere, a bald eagle just shed a single tear. The conversation digs into how Jason initially wondered why grown men were dressing like Smokey and the Bandit characters before realizing how much joy and nostalgia the tribute brought people. Fans remember their old Trans Ams. Law-enforcement officers remember being inspired by Buford. Others simply get transported back to watching the movie with their families. What started as reenacting became something much bigger. Then Sean drops one of the coolest stories in the entire episode: he spent a week around Burt Reynolds at a film festival in Valdosta, Georgia, shortly before Reynolds died. Sean remembers hearing Burt tell stories repeatedly throughout the week — except every time he told one, another little detail might appear. Nobody cared that they'd already heard it. It's Burt Reynolds. You sit down and listen. Naturally, that launches this daily comedy into stories about Burt Reynolds being one of the coolest human beings ever assembled, including the legendary tales where Burt wasn't necessarily the hero. And weirdly, that's part of what makes the stories even better. Then we get into Sheriff Justice: The Series itself. The project explores Buford and Junior before the events of Smokey and the Bandit, while working hard to preserve what made Jackie Gleason and Mike Henry's original characters memorable. Sean and Jason talk about respecting those performances rather than turning them into parody, and about receiving support from the families connected to Gleason and Henry. That's a pretty significant stamp of approval when you're stepping into characters people have loved for nearly 50 years. The production is also taking the period details seriously. We're talking vintage cars. Real old-school Detroit steel. Casting calls for vehicles from the era. The evolution toward Buford's iconic Pontiac LeMans. And, naturally, Trans Ams — including Jason's car with Burt Reynolds' autograph on the sun visor. At this point Moon is approximately three minutes away from asking whether he can legally marry a 1977 Trans Am. The guys even get deep into obscure Smokey and the Bandit car trivia, including details involving the original LeMans and its paint. This is where casual fans politely nod while the hardcore fans begin screaming at their radios because THEY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. Sean and Jason also tease Easter eggs that longtime fans should watch for, explain how production has pushed through some absolutely brutal Missouri heat — including a reported 123-degree heat index during a 14-hour filming day — and discuss finishing the pilot before moving deeper into production. And then Rafe asks the only question that really matters: When do WE get to be in it? Because apparently simply interviewing actors isn't enough anymore. Now The Rizzuto Show would like acting credits. The possibility of coming down to Sedalia as extras quickly becomes the possibility of a speaking role, and suddenly we're discussing SAG cards, Diablo sandwiches and Dr Pepper like this is already a signed contract. Moon, meanwhile, volunteers to “babysit” the Trans Am, which sounds suspiciously like grand theft auto with better manners. The episode also includes an incredible encounter with Paul Williams, who played Little Enos in the original movie. Sean and Jason describe meeting him at a convention, where Williams saw them dressed as Buford and Junior, lit up and immediately slipped right back into character — like everyone had been transported straight back to the original set. Then comes one of the greatest “I've made it” moments imaginable. Sean looks over during production and sees someone dressed exactly like him. His stunt double. That's when this whole crazy journey becomes real: you've gone from tribute appearances and car shows to standing on an actual set while another human being dresses like you because what they're about to do is apparently too dangerous for your insurance policy. This episode is a love letter to Smokey and the Bandit, Burt Reynolds, Jackie Gleason, Mike Henry, outrageous cars, practical stunt work and a style of movie comedy that still connects with audiences decades later. It's nostalgia without treating the originals like museum pieces — and the story of a couple of guys whose passion project somehow grew into something much larger. It's also another daily comedy episode where Rafe's childhood obsession may have accidentally resulted in the entire show getting acting work. If this works, we're never going to hear the end of it. So grab a Diablo sandwich and a Dr Pepper, fire up the Trans Am and enjoy some daily comedy with Sean, Jason and The Rizzuto Show. We'll see you eastbound and down.

There are certain moments when you realize the world you knew is gone forever. Your childhood home gets cleaned out. The cars you remember disappear. Your favorite mascot gets replaced. And, most devastating of all, 7UP decides it needs to become more lime-forward. We know. Take all the time you need. Episode 83 starts with some actual show business as the crew talks about trying to land a role — or at least get their faces somewhere in the background — in Sheriff Justice: The Series. There’s also some movie talk surrounding Scott’s short-film adventures before we arrive at the cultural earthquake nobody was prepared for: 7UP is changing its recipe. For the first time in 15 years, the lemon-lime soda is going lime-lemon. That announcement sends this comedy podcast directly into nostalgia mode as Rafe and Moon remember the glory days of 7UP's Uncola marketing, old-school glasses and, most importantly, Cool Spot. Remember Cool Spot? The red dot with sunglasses, sneakers and enough ’90s attitude to somehow get his own Sega Genesis game? THAT was branding. Naturally, the conversation becomes a referendum on every mascot decision 7UP has made since, including poor Fido Dido catching strays decades after the fact. The trip down memory lane keeps rolling when the crew talks about cars disappearing from the market, including the Ford Escape, Jaguar F-Pace, Toyota GR Supra and Tesla Model S. That somehow brings Smart cars back into the conversation, which reminds everybody of that brief period when society tried to convince us driving something the size of a roller skate was the future. Then we Crap on Celebrities. Matthew McConaughey tells a story about using his Wedding Planner connection to Jennifer Lopez to help get himself out of a sticky traffic-stop situation in Mexico. Which raises an important question: if Matthew McConaughey still has to name-drop somebody else, what hope do the rest of us have? There’s Barbie sequel drama involving Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Greta Gerwig and some potentially enormous paydays. Kelly Ripa talks about needing gum-graft surgery. Selena Gomez and her Wondermind company face allegations in a lawsuit. Spider-Man is putting up gigantic box-office numbers, and the crew dives into a list of movies people online have branded some of the most boring films of the century. Then Anne Hathaway floats the idea that movies where dogs die should automatically get an R rating. Honestly, Old Yeller has been emotionally mugging children for generations, so at least somebody finally opened the investigation. We also get into the return of Ted Lasso, Axl Rose dealing with jaw problems while performing, and Lionel Richie cracking a joke about Usher and Chris Brown that predictably becomes an online debate. Because nothing said into a microphone is allowed to simply be a joke anymore. It must immediately become a panel discussion involving 40,000 strangers. But the centerpiece of the celebrity chaos is a game that deserves its own home edition: Good Tipper or Bad Tipper? The crew works through anecdotal stories involving John Cena, Chuck Norris, David Lee Roth, Dave Chappelle, Scottie Pippen, Shaq, Maria Shriver, 50 Cent, Stanley Tucci, Post Malone, Miley Cyrus, Bruce Willis, Elvis Presley, Jay-Z, Tina Fey, Jennifer Lopez, Kevin Hart, Jane Fonda and Jack Black. Some allegedly tipped huge. Some allegedly tipped terribly. Some stories immediately make the crew question humanity. And Scottie Pippen inspires a nickname so painfully obvious that humanity should be ashamed it took this long: No Tippin’ Pippen. Again, these are anecdotes discussed during the show, not our personal surveillance operation into celebrities paying restaurant checks. We barely have enough resources to monitor our own lunch orders. The episode wraps with celebrity birthdays, Steve Martin age guesses, Reginald VelJohnson’s incredible history of playing cops and the usual collection of references that make this comedy podcast feel less like a structured entertainment program and more like being trapped at a table with friends who remember every useless cultural detail except why they originally started talking. So pour yourself a 7UP — lemon-lime or the terrifying new lime-lemon variety — tip your server, fire up the Sega Genesis and enjoy another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show.

St. Louis is approximately the temperature of the sun, and the only reasonable goal is to land the plane without setting either the plane or ourselves on fire. Naturally, we immediately fail. Things actually start suspiciously positive when the crew discovers The Rizzuto Show won the St. Louis Magazine A-List honor for Talk/News Radio Show. Nobody knew. Nobody prepared a speech. Nobody even knew when the results came out. Truly the level of professionalism you expect from an award-winning funny podcast and radio show. We celebrate by immediately combing through the other winners and finalists, congratulating friends, questioning categories and proving that even success can become an argument if you give us enough time. Then Moon spots an expired Missouri temp tag, and that harmless observation detonates into one of the great Rizz Show debates: why is getting permanent plates such a ridiculous process? Missouri is working toward eliminating paper temp tags and changing how vehicle sales tax gets collected, which should finally make things easier. There’s just one small problem: Rafe casually admits HIS temp tags are expired. Rafe has the paperwork. He has the money. He has the check. What he apparently does not possess is the spiritual strength required to actually finish the process. This leads to his transformation from procrastinating vehicle owner into self-appointed freedom fighter, complete with comparisons to Gandhi that Gandhi’s estate would presumably like removed from the record. According to Rafe, this isn’t laziness. It’s peaceful protest. According to everyone else in the studio: dude, go get your plates. From there, the funny podcast portion of our alleged news operation kicks the doors completely off the hinges. A Minnesota man allegedly decides neighborhood kids cutting across his lawn require homemade spike strips, giving us the “get off my lawn” story to end all “get off my lawn” stories. That sends the show into booby-trap law, trespassing, old farm stories and the landmark legal case of Wet Bandits v. Kevin McAllister. Please note: The Rizzuto Show is not a law firm. This paragraph alone should have made that obvious. Then we meet a Georgia driver accused of trying to run down a jogger after she committed the unforgivable crime of saying “good morning.” Three attempts. One greeting. Apparently mornings have gotten significantly more hostile. And somehow that STILL isn’t enough chaos for one episode. Creep Corner arrives with the kind of characters who make you wonder why your neighborhood Facebook group suddenly feels comforting, the Town Crier of Creep Corner gets involved, and eventually we reach FULL CONTACT LEOPARDS, because nature apparently looked at everything humans were doing in this episode and said, “Fine, our turn.” It’s celebrity news, weird news, St. Louis nonsense, ridiculous arguments, accidental confessions and the usual collection of tangents that turn a simple story into twenty minutes of grown adults questioning society. In other words, another perfectly normal episode of The Rizzuto Show. If you like daily humor, funny stories, entertainment gossip, unusual news stories, sarcastic humor and watching radio professionals discover potentially important information live on their own show, congratulations: you have found your funny podcast.

Meeting Don Mattingly, First Pitches, Daryl Strawberry was apparently in the stands, college students are heading back to campus, parents everywhere are questioning their financial decisions, and Florida has once again decided that normal behavior is merely a suggestion. Welcome to another episode of The Rizzuto Show, the comedy podcast where one innocent conversation can make several deeply unnecessary turns before anyone has a chance to stop it. The show kicks off with Daryl Strawberry after video surfaces of the former MLB star crossing paths with an old teammate. That naturally gets Rizz thinking about what would happen if Strawberry suddenly appeared in front of him — because apparently meeting one baseball hero wasn’t enough emotional trauma for one week. From there, we move into college season. Parents are loading up cars, kids are heading back to school, and the crew starts debating the best college towns in America. Fayetteville gets plenty of love as Rizz talks about an upcoming Arkansas visit, while Moon makes a strong case for Tuscaloosa and the conversation wanders through Bloomington, Ann Arbor, Tempe, Madison, Charlottesville, Gainesville, Tallahassee, Laramie and Urbana-Champaign. There are legitimate discussions about business schools, campus life and tuition. There are also judgments based on weather, stadiums, sandwiches and whether your kid will feel like college is just “13th grade.” In other words, this is not an accredited educational consulting service. Please plan accordingly. Then Florida arrives. And Florida does not arrive quietly. It’s time for Fake News of Florida, where callers have to decide whether increasingly ridiculous headlines actually happened in the Sunshine State or were created specifically to destroy their remaining faith in humanity. Could a Chuck E. Cheese mascot really get arrested inside the arcade? Could a guy in a Batman onesie detain a burglary suspect? Could a 300-pound feral hog crash through somebody’s glass door? What about a runaway kangaroo? A guy hiding a gun under silicone breasts? A pet store burglar putting a live ferret down his pants? These are the questions our ancestors dreamed we would someday have the technology to answer. Moon serves as a lifeline, which occasionally works beautifully and occasionally involves him building an entire forensic case around a headline only to discover that Florida simply does not respect conventional logic. The more reasonable his explanation sounds, the more concerned everyone should probably become. Things eventually escalate to mystery shower curtains, a Key West parrot allegedly trapped in a margarita machine and perhaps the most Florida sentence ever assembled: a Pensacola man trying to trade a live rattlesnake for a box of chicken tenders. At some point you stop asking whether the headlines are plausible and start accepting that the state of Florida is basically running its own comedy podcast without microphones. It’s baseball nostalgia, college-parent anxiety, caller chaos, weird news and enough Florida nonsense to make you suspicious of every headline you read for the rest of the day. Just another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show, where we take the important stories of the day and immediately make them significantly less important.

We start with a little baseball nostalgia and somehow ends with us debating whether a man would trade a live rattlesnake for chicken tenders—which, honestly, is a pretty accurate summary of the intellectual journey you’ve signed up for with this funny podcast. The crew kicks things off after learning Daryl Strawberry was spotted in the stands shaking hands with an old teammate, which naturally gets everybody talking baseball, Strawberry’s career, and his St. Louis-area connection. From there, we smoothly transition—as only a professional broadcasting operation like ours can—into one of the most stressful decisions a parent can make: where the heck is your kid going to college? Rizz is getting ready to hit the road for Fayetteville and is making a strong sales pitch for the University of Arkansas. Moon brings his own college-tour experience to the table, including some serious love for Tuscaloosa and the University of Alabama campus. Rafe weighs in on Fayetteville, Madison, Laramie and more as the guys break down a ranking of the best college towns in America. Ann Arbor takes the top spot, but that doesn't stop the crew from debating Arizona State, Virginia, Florida, Florida State, Wisconsin, Berkeley, Purdue, Wyoming and Illinois. There are beautiful campuses, brutal winters, business schools, Walmart money and the eternal parental dream of convincing your kid that the school YOU like is obviously the school THEY should like. Parenting! Then we arrive in Florida. And things immediately get stupid. It's time for Fake News or Florida, the game where contestants have to decide whether a ridiculous headline actually happened in Florida or whether the show made it up. The problem is that writing fake Florida headlines is nearly impossible because actual Florida keeps producing material that sounds like it was written by three raccoons sharing a laptop. Was a woman dressed as a hot dog arrested after covering a neighbor's car in toilet paper? Did police arrest Chuck E. Cheese while he was still in costume? Did someone throw an alligator through a drive-thru window? Did a guy in a Batman onesie detain a burglary suspect? Could a 300-pound feral hog interrupt somebody doing a crossword puzzle? And, most importantly, how much faith should anyone place in Moon as a lifeline? The answers become increasingly concerning. We also encounter a runaway kangaroo, a rainbow-painted manatee statue, a man hiding a gun under silicone breasts, a burglar with a live ferret stuffed down his pants, hundreds of mysteriously delivered shower curtains and the possibility of a rattlesnake-for-chicken-tenders barter economy. Moon spends much of the game carefully analyzing every detail, constructing thoughtful arguments and then discovering that Florida does not recognize the laws of logic. It's like watching Sherlock Holmes investigate a gas-station parking lot at 2 a.m. This funny podcast packs baseball talk, college-town arguments, listener chaos, bizarre headlines, St. Louis humor and enough Florida news to make you wonder whether the state should simply start issuing press releases titled, “You're Not Going To Believe This One Either.” It's another episode of The Rizzuto Show where celebrity and sports talk collide with weird news, sarcastic humor and the kind of daily comedy that probably shouldn't count as educational—but technically you will learn several things. Mostly about ferrets. Come for Daryl Strawberry and the college debate. Stay for the moment everyone has to seriously consider whether someone tried to exchange a live rattlesnake for chicken tenders. That's the kind of journalism this funny podcast is brave enough to tackle. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Somebody in Quincy, Illinois just became insanely rich, somebody else allegedly treated a Morgan Wallen concert like his own personal bathroom, and somehow that’s only the beginning of today’s Rizzuto Show. The crew kicks things off with the massive Powerball jackpot and the one winning ticket sold in Quincy, Illinois. Naturally, instead of simply congratulating this newly minted billionaire and moving along like mature adults, we immediately start spending their money for them. Lump sum or annuity? Buy an island or stay in the same house? Disappear forever or become the richest tractor enthusiast in the Midwest? This funny podcast tackles all the responsible financial questions that absolutely nobody should trust us to answer. Moon also wonders whether the mystery winner could somehow be his cousin, which leads to dreams of farmland, giant gardens, tractors, demolition derby cars and the kind of billionaire lifestyle that says, “Yes, I have generational wealth, but I still know how to fix this carburetor.” Then things take a hard turn. And by “hard turn,” we mean the kind of conversational detour only The Rizzuto Show could make. We get an update on Michael Phillips, the North Carolina man who previously went viral for openly discussing his micropenis condition and is now preparing for an enhancement procedure. Rizz actually donated to the crowdfunding campaign, because apparently this show occasionally uses its powers for good between making every possible inappropriate joke about the situation. From there, welcome to The Urine Chronicles. The man accused of urinating on seated concertgoers during a Morgan Wallen show has finally been arrested, reopening one of the great philosophical debates of our time: what exactly are you legally, morally and spiritually allowed to do when a stranger starts peeing on you? Rizz has some thoughts. Rafe has some extremely specific defensive strategies. Lern consults the internet. Moon attempts to introduce reason into the discussion, which—as longtime listeners know—is usually where everything goes wrong. There’s also a trip through history as the crew marks the anniversary of the Berlin Wall going up, complete with escape stories, Moon’s memories of visiting Berlin and the historically impeccable reminder that David Hasselhoff personally brought the whole thing down. Please do not cite this funny podcast in your dissertation. Then it’s time for Crap on Celebrities, featuring Diddy’s prison update and a debate over whether celebrities can ever truly become untouchable after major scandals. The crew gets into Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train” passing one billion Spotify streams, new Phoebe Bridgers music, upcoming rock documentaries, Jason Sudeikis joining Mumford & Sons for the Ted Lasso theme, Seinfeld remaining comfort-food television, Rory Scovel’s comedy special, Star Wars fatigue, Ewan McGregor’s willingness to return as Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Julie Andrews stepping away from Princess Diaries 3. Plus, celebrity fan encounters get deeply weird. Dolly Parton once had a baby left on her doorstep. The Jonas Brothers received a preserved baby shark. Rupert Grint apparently accepted an invitation to party with drag queens until 4 a.m. And James McAvoy got presented with perhaps the most direct hall-pass proposal imaginable. Throw in birthdays, St. Louis references, inappropriate detours and enough pop culture commentary to make your search history look deeply concerning, and you’ve got another funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show. Come for the billion-dollar dreams. Stay because we're apparently litigating concert pee. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Rizz went to Busch Stadium expecting a Cardinals game and maybe a nice afternoon with the crew. What he got instead was Don Mattingly, surprise adoption paperwork, thousands of witnesses and a chance to finally erase 16 years of baseball-related humiliation. So yeah, pretty standard Wednesday. The day starts with the important journalism you've come to expect from this funny podcast: stadium nachos and what they can do to the human digestive system when a grown man refuses to respect the warning signs. King Scott had to leave the show after apparently going a little too hard on the food the day before, which naturally sends Rafe down memory lane to his own infamous stadium-nacho incident. There are some memories you cherish forever. Others apparently require abandoning your underwear. Then Rizz explains what actually happened at Busch Stadium. He thought the crew was simply heading down for a Cardinals game and getting some field access. That's already a pretty great afternoon. Then they get onto the field, Rizz spots Don Mattingly near the Phillies dugout and suddenly everybody starts putting microphones on. Suspicious? Sure. Effective? Absolutely. Because Don Mattingly isn't just another baseball player to Rizz. This is THE childhood hero. The guy whose poster was on his wall. The Yankees legend who immediately turns a professional radio host into an 11-year-old kid capable of rattling off 1980s baseball statistics like he's being held hostage by the back of a Topps card. And somehow that's only the beginning. The crew reveals that Don Mattingly has agreed to adopt Rizz for one day. There is paperwork. There are conditions. There is apparently more thought put into this fake adoption than we've put into several legitimate business decisions. Why the adoption? Because 16 years earlier, Rizz threw out a ceremonial first pitch at Busch Stadium and launched the baseball over the catcher's head and toward the color guard in front of a packed stadium. His parents were there. The crowd collectively reacted. The shame survived longer than several popular social media platforms. Now he gets another chance. One pitch. From the mound. Throw a strike and Don Mattingly recognizes Rizz as his son for the remainder of the day. Miss, and the adoption gets immediately annulled while the Rizzuto bloodline remains publicly disgraced. This funny podcast suddenly became the final 10 minutes of a baseball movie nobody knew they were watching. Then comes the introduction. Busch Stadium PA announcer John Hewlett reads an absolutely enormous setup explaining Rizz's original failure, his father, his 16 years of shame, Don Mattingly's temporary paternity and the consequences of another miss. Meanwhile Rizz has to stand there on the big screen waiting to throw the baseball while the introduction simply refuses to end. Eventually, there is nowhere left to hide. Rizz steps onto the mound. He throws. STRIKE. Right down the middle. Hunter Dobbins barely has to move his glove. Fredbird runs out. Everybody loses their minds. Rizz drops down and looks toward the sky thinking about his dad, and suddenly this ridiculous bit the crew had been planning turns into a genuinely incredible moment. Naturally, we can't remain emotionally healthy for long. The celebration leads directly back into jokes about Papa Don abandoning his newly adopted son, the Hubbard suite the show apparently wasn't originally invited to, and the staggering quantity of food consumed by people who knew perfectly well they eventually had to leave an air-conditioned room and walk back into St. Louis heat. It's sentimental. It's stupid. It's baseball. It's stomach problems. It's Don Mattingly becoming somebody's temporary father. In other words, it's exactly the kind of emotional whiplash this funny podcast specializes in. Episode 48 of The Rizzuto Show: come for the redemption story, stay because somebody has to make sure Rafe survives the buffet.

Alleged gravity event and quickly asking the much more important question: where is the gravity cult? Because if the internet promises a supernatural event, somebody somewhere has probably already purchased matching tracksuits and appointed himself Supreme Gravity Commander. Thus, the Gravitonians are born, Idaho and Arkansas get dragged into the investigation, and a completely reasonable conversation becomes exactly the kind of funny podcast chaos you’d expect from The Rizzuto Show. The conversation tumbles into Heaven’s Gate, Jonestown, Marshall Applewhite, Nike Decades, purple shrouds, Flavor Aid getting absolutely robbed of its historical brand recognition, and the crew trying to remember which unsettling cult detail belongs to which unsettling cult. This is less of a history lesson and more four people opening the same mental junk drawer at once. Eventually the crew becomes especially fascinated by Heaven’s Gate’s sneaker selection, because apparently even impending extraterrestrial departure requires a respectable shoe game. Then somebody wisely decides it’s time to stop talking about cults and play trivia. This turns out to be only marginally safer. The Rizz Quiz returns with contestants getting 45 seconds to answer as many questions as possible—but one wrong answer immediately ends the run. No passing. No mercy. No blaming the educational system afterward. Questions cover everything from Roman numerals and the Grand Canyon to Nutella, Winnie the Pooh, human anatomy, Peter Pan, baseball, Garfield and the horrifying mathematics of nickels. Chris starts things off before the Colorado River causes problems. Diego gets ambushed by the number of years in a century. Brad suddenly turns into the final boss with a seven-answer run featuring hazelnuts, Rhode Island, Africa, Piglet, club sandwiches and Canada. Jared tries to chase him down until the “white part of an egg” becomes an intellectual brick wall. Then Round Two arrives. Brando tears through Jefferson City, football fields, Cookie Monster and Dr Pepper before the human skeleton ruins his streak. Cameron learns that lions have a pride, not a pack. Aaron encounters a fairy named “Tinder Bell,” which frankly deserves its own dating app. Finally, Brian gets Garfield’s least-favorite day correct before informing all of St. Louis that there are 50 nickels in a dollar.

The Rizzuto Show has been waiting since January for the moment humanity would supposedly lose gravity for eight glorious seconds, and now the big day has arrived. Do we float? Do we fly? Do we immediately jump out a window based on something we heard on the internet? Thankfully, only one of those ideas gets discussed with any enthusiasm. Episode 26 kicks off with the crew preparing for the alleged gravity event and quickly asking the much more important question: where is the gravity cult? Because if the internet promises a supernatural event, somebody somewhere has probably already purchased matching tracksuits and appointed himself Supreme Gravity Commander. Thus, the Gravitonians are born, Idaho and Arkansas get dragged into the investigation, and a completely reasonable conversation becomes exactly the kind of funny podcast chaos you’d expect from The Rizzuto Show. From there, somehow, things get even stranger. The conversation tumbles into Heaven’s Gate, Jonestown, Marshall Applewhite, Nike Decades, purple shrouds, Flavor Aid getting absolutely robbed of its historical brand recognition, and the crew trying to remember which unsettling cult detail belongs to which unsettling cult. This is less of a history lesson and more four people opening the same mental junk drawer at once.

There are 20. We checked. Probably twice after this episode. It’s another funny podcast packed with daily humor, sarcastic commentary, weird stories, St. Louis radio chaos and the beautiful sound of confident people discovering they are confidently incorrect. If you enjoy comedy podcasts where celebrity gossip and weird news can suddenly give way to a serious debate over cult sneakers and elementary-school trivia, welcome home. Expectations were already low, and somehow we found a basement. Come for the eight seconds without gravity. Stay for the contestants losing their grip on arithmetic. This funny podcast episode proves once again that The Rizzuto Show can turn a ridiculous internet claim, an uncomfortable history detour and a handful of trivia questions into a complete collapse of civilized morning radio.

Welcome to another funny podcast episode of The Rizzuto Show, where technology is terrifying, nostalgia is apparently worth millions, and the financial advice remains extremely simple: go back to 1988 and tell your parents to buy two copies of everything. We kick things off with Spotify’s new push to identify AI-generated music and AI personas, which immediately creates a problem nobody on the show particularly enjoys: some of this fake music is annoyingly good. The crew gets into AI covers, suspiciously talented digital musicians, the increasingly exhausting game of asking “is this real?” every time something shows up online, and why artificial intelligence apparently figured out how to make a blues record before most of us figured out what we’re doing with our lives. Then it’s time for some serious Nintendo nostalgia. A stash of 100 unopened Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt cartridges has surfaced, with experts suggesting the collection could potentially bring enormous money at auction. That sends everybody spiraling back to childhood: Nintendo, Atari, Sega Genesis, Game Gear, coordinating Christmas presents with friends, blowing into cartridges like tiny electronics technicians, and the devastating realization that every toy we destroyed was apparently supposed to be our retirement portfolio. Naturally, nobody told us. From there, Crap on Celebrities brings another avalanche of entertainment gossip and pop culture commentary. 311 is headed back to St. Louis, Morrissey is canceling shows again, and Travis Barker has some very specific advice for son Landon Barker about appearing on The Voice. That turns into a perfectly reasonable discussion about artistic credibility, reality television, nepotism, and whether marrying into the Kardashian universe technically makes everybody a contestant. Eddie Vedder reveals the Martin Short joke that helped him quit smoking, Death Cab for Cutie hits Tiny Desk, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is exploring even more music because apparently movies, wrestling, tequila, skincare and being one of the most recognizable humans alive were not enough extracurricular activities. Celebrity news keeps rolling with Taylor Swift’s Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame honor, pet drama, horror-movie controversy, Jenna Ortega discussion, and one of Hollywood’s greatest alternate-universe casting decisions: Kevin Costner passing on The Shawshank Redemption to make Waterworld. Somewhere, a fish-man with gills just whispered, “worth it.” The crew debates whether Tom Hanks or Tom Cruise could have worked as Andy Dufresne, revisits Waterworld, celebrates some birthdays, and eventually arrives at the important local journalism this community deserves: Steve Ewing’s birthday means a special deal at Steve’s Hot Dogs for people named Steve, Stephen or Stephanie. Stefans, apparently, can kick rocks. Then Rafe unveils the Riz Quiz: rapid-fire questions, 45 seconds on the clock, one wrong answer and you’re done. Nothing exposes the human brain quite like asking it to recall basic information while everybody on a morning radio show waits for it to fail. It’s AI anxiety, retro gaming, celebrity fails, St. Louis nonsense, music news, movie arguments and hot-dog-based discrimination packed into one funny podcast. Basically, another completely normal morning with Rizz and the gang. Listen to the full funny podcast episode and find out why the future may belong to artificial intelligence, but the real winners are apparently the people who refused to open their Nintendo games.

St. Louis woke up to a hazardous-material fire, a mysterious chemical cloud drifting through the Metro East, and instructions to shelter in place during weather hot enough to turn your house into a Crock-Pot. Naturally, The Rizzuto Show responds exactly like any responsible funny podcast would: by immediately wondering what happens when the chemical cloud meets rain, debating whether air conditioning is trying to kill us, and preparing to attend an afternoon Cardinals game in a heat index hovering somewhere around “surface of the sun.” Great planning, everybody. The crew is headed to the baseball game, which means it’s time to discuss shorts, questionable Cardinals outfits, polyester in extreme humidity, and several anatomical consequences of excessive heat that probably weren’t included in the National Weather Service advisory. Moon offers “cool moss” as a survival mantra, Rafe considers wearing an outfit that could become a public-decency incident in the right breeze, and Rizzuto realizes that choosing an August day game may have been a tactical error. But who cares about heat when GRAVITY ITSELF IS ABOUT TO DISAPPEAR? Yes, the calendar reminder has finally arrived. According to an internet prophecy the show has been lovingly babysitting for months, gravity is supposed to vanish at 8:33 a.m. for several seconds. So the gang does what this funny podcast does best: takes something completely ridiculous and gives it significantly more analysis than it deserves. Do we float? Should everyone jump? What happens when gravity comes back? Should Lern abandon the show to protect her cats? And most importantly, why did Rizzuto bring rope? Throw in an eclipse, a meteor shower, Lionsgate manifestation talk and a massive Powerball jackpot, and this is shaping up to be a perfectly normal Wednesday. Then we arrive at the Great Hole-in-One Heist. The crew dives into the viral St. Louis-area golf scandal involving a player who admitted to fabricating a hole-in-one during a tournament with thousands of dollars at stake. There’s security footage, a suspicious trip ahead of the group, a ball mysteriously sitting in the cup and an apology that helped turn a local golf disaster into national entertainment. But while everyone else is debating golf ethics, The Rizzuto Show focuses on the question nobody else apparently had the courage to ask: IS GRANDMA OKAY?! From there, the crew debates cheating, hole-in-one etiquette, whether you’d expose your spouse for pulling the same stunt, and whether $9,000 is enough money to permanently become “the golf liar” at every family gathering. And because apparently we’re conducting an ethics seminar now, the conversation moves from golf cheating to cashier mistakes. If a store forgets to charge you for something, do you go back? Is keeping it stealing? Is karma waiting around the corner with a bus? Suddenly our funny podcast has become a philosophy class taught by people preparing to sit outside at a baseball stadium during a heat advisory. Chemical clouds. Gravity conspiracies. Lottery dreams. Golf fraud. Accidental shoplifting. Cardinals baseball. Another completely reasonable morning with The Rizzuto Show.

Rizz shows up sporting a mysterious bandage under his eye, so naturally Lern, Moon and Rafe respond with compassion, maturity and absolutely none of the above. After theories involving shaving accidents, discount Nelly cosplay and possible violence, Rizz reveals what actually happened: he went to the dermatologist expecting to have a skin tag removed. Instead, the doctor took one look under magnification, decided it needed a closer look, removed it and sent it off for a biopsy. So obviously the show handles this delicate situation with dignity. Just kidding. Within minutes we're discussing solidarity Band-Aids, ribbons, Aquaphor, garlic carcinoma and whether Rizz can technically start calling himself a survivor. Nothing brings friends together quite like an unexpected medical procedure and the immediate weaponization of it for content. King Scott sends us into CPR, new-parent panic and the revelation that properly installing a child car seat apparently requires more training than anyone in the room expected. A firefighter calls in, King Scott gets some actual useful information, and Rizz remembers the time his son started choking on bacon — prompting Dad Instinct Rizz to spring into action before apparently returning to his omelet like he'd just completed a minor household chore. Lern has also researched emergency procedures for cats, because of course she has. Then Lern returns from Table Rock Lake and the crew settles an important semantic argument: was this a “vacation” or merely a “trip”? Her family getaway included Table Rock, Top of the Rock, an expensive golf-cart cave tour, fake rocks, Branson energy, a canned cave cocktail and enough nickel-and-diming to make you wonder if the scenery charges a convenience fee. The review? Roughly three out of five stars. Nature: beautiful. Family bonding: great. Branson sneaking into the cave like it owns the place: inevitable. That leads perfectly into “popcorn brain,” the term for what happens when our attention starts bouncing between notifications, videos, headlines and entertainment like somebody dumped a bucket of mental popcorn into our skulls. Rizz has watched it happen with his kids, Rafe admits it happens to him during the show, and suddenly everybody realizes this isn't just a teenager problem. We're all cooked. Rafe also celebrates his 3,000th comedy set, which is legitimately impressive and therefore cannot be discussed for long without everyone confusing Mr. 3000 with Mr. Baseball. Congratulations, Rafe. Three thousand performances and you're still voluntarily sitting in this studio. Incredible commitment. Questionable judgment. A St. Louis story that's bizarre for all the wrong reasons: a regional Amber Alert, a supposedly stolen Dodge Charger and a missing child who investigators ultimately determined had never been inside the vehicle. The crew gets into the false report, the massive police response it triggered and the uncomfortable fact that this wasn't the first high-profile false child-abduction report the area has dealt with recently. You'd think we'd stay serious after that. You must be new here. Moon finally saw The Odyssey in IMAX, which means it's time for a completely reasonable film review that immediately becomes a referendum on whether human beings still know how to behave inside a movie theater. Talking, climbing over people, premium ticket prices and seats close enough to the screen to personally inspect Tom Holland's pores—moviegoing truly is magical. Then comes an argument guaranteed to make somebody angrily talk to their dashboard: which bands followed a killer debut album with a disappointing sophomore effort? Guns N' Roses, Garbage, Weezer, Bush, Hootie and the Blowfish, Boston, The Darkness, The Strokes, Meat Loaf and Vanilla Ice all enter the conversation, and not everybody leaves with their dignity. Moon also brings an actual musician's perspective to why that second album can be such a nightmare when your first record becomes a hit. Welcome to our funny podcast, where suddenly we're discussing artistic pressure like responsible adults before immediately ruining it. Crap on Celebrities arrives carrying the usual bag of entertainment nonsense. Geddy Lee has a strange encounter with a bird that raises questions about Neil Peart and spiritual visits. Josh Homme reportedly gets expensive while looking irritatingly cool doing it. The crew digs into the renewed conversation surrounding Hilary Duff's teenage relationship with Joel Madden, along with other music and celebrity stories. Then things somehow expand to burglary, stolen treasure and grudges. There's celebrity break-in news, plus Rizz's firsthand visit to the Louvre room connected to an enormous jewel heist—which naturally leads to the discovery that museum security apparently has some surprisingly Walgreens-adjacent rules about chasing people. The show also gets into Jon Hamm, Matthew Lillard facing a fan who held onto a grievance for years, Hollywood's biggest directors and a debate over the greatest movie sequels ever made. Terminator 2, Aliens, The Empire Strikes Back, The Dark Knight, The Godfather Part II and even Paddington 2 get dragged into the arena because this funny podcast respects cinema almost as much as it respects wasting everyone's time. And then suburbia gets interesting. Emily and Nathan from Double Lives of Suburban Wives join The Rizzuto Show to talk about the St. Louis-based reality series centered on women balancing suburban family life with major success creating digital adult content. It's the kind of premise that makes you realize the person standing next to you at soccer practice may have a considerably more interesting LinkedIn than you do. They were looking for an extra $150–$300 a month for groceries… and somehow that turned into hundreds of thousands of dollars, reality TV, and a conversation about monster toys before most people finished their morning coffee. Emily and Nathan from TLC’s Double Lives of Suburban Wives join The Rizzuto Show, and we have approximately 47 questions — several of which probably should not be asked before lunch. Emily’s story starts in a place a lot of families know all too well: trying to make the bills work. She and Nathan were working opposite shifts to avoid daycare costs, running a woodworking business, and looking for a way to bring in an extra $150–$300 a month. Nothing crazy. Just grocery money. Then Nathan floated the idea of Emily making adult content. Fast-forward four years, and “grocery money” has become a full-blown business spread across multiple platforms. Emily explains how she started cautiously, why showing a real body with stretch marks and cellulite mattered to her, and how one of her earliest subscribers turned out to be what the industry calls a “whale.” Emily and Nathan also explain why they decided to put their lives on TLC’s Double Lives of Suburban Wives, what it’s like having cameras follow them around the St. Louis area, and why they haven’t experienced the massive hometown backlash some people might expect. The conversation gets more serious as Emily discusses body positivity, the stigma surrounding mothers who create adult content, and how she and Nathan have handled conversations about their work with their family. Their position is pretty simple: they’re happy, safe, providing for their family, and not particularly interested in living according to somebody else’s expectations. Which is probably healthier than reading the comments section. Nobody has ever emerged from there improved. Then we get into the reality-TV side of things. Emily admits the women featured on Double Lives of Suburban Wives aren’t necessarily one giant happy friend group. Different personalities, different levels of success, different struggles and — because television producers enjoy remaining employed — plenty of drama. Is some of it ego-driven? Is there competition? What happens when someone enters an already selective group? And could a second season crank things up even further? Emily gives us a glimpse without spoiling the show, while Nathan delivers perhaps the most efficient response to critics imaginable: if people don’t approve of the business, maybe they should tell their husbands to stop subscribing. The conversation also covers how creating content changed Emily and Nathan’s relationship, whether their views on monogamy have evolved, the truly astonishing variety of things people will pay to see online, and whether Rafe or Lern could theoretically find their own bizarre niche. From woodworking and reptile shows to reality television, body positivity, internet entrepreneurship, suburban gossip and some VERY specific customer requests, this funny podcast is essentially the American dream after somebody accidentally left the parental controls off. And underneath all the jokes is a surprisingly interesting conversation about money, marriage, judgment, family and what “normal” actually looks like when your side hustle becomes more successful than anybody expected.

Emily explains how she started cautiously, why showing a real body with stretch marks and cellulite mattered to her, and how one of her earliest subscribers turned out to be what the industry calls a “whale.” How early? About a week. How successful? Let’s just say the grocery budget stopped being the primary concern. Yes, this funny podcast somehow becomes an accidental business seminar, except most business seminars don’t involve Rafe asking whether a band saw has ever appeared in the content. Emily and Nathan also explain why they decided to put their lives on TLC’s Double Lives of Suburban Wives, what it’s like having cameras follow them around the St. Louis area, and why they haven’t experienced the massive hometown backlash some people might expect.

Fair point. The conversation also covers how creating content changed Emily and Nathan’s relationship, whether their views on monogamy have evolved, the truly astonishing variety of things people will pay to see online, and whether Rafe or Lern could theoretically find their own bizarre niche. Bad news for civilization: apparently yes. From woodworking and reptile shows to reality television, body positivity, internet entrepreneurship, suburban gossip and some VERY specific customer requests, this funny podcast is essentially the American dream after somebody accidentally left the parental controls off. And underneath all the jokes is a surprisingly interesting conversation about money, marriage, judgment, family and what “normal” actually looks like when your side hustle becomes more successful than anybody expected. Emily and Nathan sum up the season with three words: family, mean girls and money. We couldn't have done better ourselves. Come for the suburban secrets. Stay for Rafe discovering that every weird idea he has apparently has a potential customer base. That is dangerous information to give this funny podcast.

A St. Louis story that's bizarre for all the wrong reasons: a regional Amber Alert, a supposedly stolen Dodge Charger and a missing child who investigators ultimately determined had never been inside the vehicle. The crew gets into the false report, the massive police response it triggered and the uncomfortable fact that this wasn't the first high-profile false child-abduction report the area has dealt with recently. You'd think we'd stay serious after that. You must be new here. Moon finally saw The Odyssey in IMAX, which means it's time for a completely reasonable film review that immediately becomes a referendum on whether human beings still know how to behave inside a movie theater. Talking, climbing over people, premium ticket prices and seats close enough to the screen to personally inspect Tom Holland's pores—moviegoing truly is magical. Then comes an argument guaranteed to make somebody angrily talk to their dashboard: which bands followed a killer debut album with a disappointing sophomore effort? Guns N' Roses, Garbage, Weezer, Bush, Hootie and the Blowfish, Boston, The Darkness, The Strokes, Meat Loaf and Vanilla Ice all enter the conversation, and not everybody leaves with their dignity. Moon also brings an actual musician's perspective to why that second album can be such a nightmare when your first record becomes a hit.

It's the kind of premise that makes you realize the person standing next to you at soccer practice may have a considerably more interesting LinkedIn than you do. The conversation brings the show's unusual collision of ordinary suburban routines, relationships, reality television and decidedly less-ordinary careers straight into the studio. Because apparently picking up the kids, maintaining a marriage and appearing on television wasn't enough scheduling difficulty. It's St. Louis news, entertainment gossip, music arguments, movie complaints, celebrity chaos and suburban secrets packed into one funny podcast from Rizz, Lern, Moon, Rafe, King Scott and the gang. Basically, another normal day at The Rizzuto Show—assuming your definition of normal desperately needs professional evaluation.

Welcome to Episode 301 of The Rizzuto Show, where today's funny podcast begins with the simple question every coworker wants to hear first thing in the morning: “What's wrong with your face?” Rizz shows up sporting a mysterious bandage under his eye, so naturally Lern, Moon and Rafe respond with compassion, maturity and absolutely none of the above. After theories involving shaving accidents, discount Nelly cosplay and possible violence, Rizz reveals what actually happened: he went to the dermatologist expecting to have a skin tag removed. Instead, the doctor took one look under magnification, decided it needed a closer look, removed it and sent it off for a biopsy. So obviously the show handles this delicate situation with dignity. Just kidding. Within minutes we're discussing solidarity Band-Aids, ribbons, Aquaphor, garlic carcinoma and whether Rizz can technically start calling himself a survivor. Nothing brings friends together quite like an unexpected medical procedure and the immediate weaponization of it for content. That somehow sends us into CPR, new-parent panic and the revelation that properly installing a child car seat apparently requires more training than anyone in the room expected. A firefighter calls in, Scott gets some actual useful information, and Rizz remembers the time his son started choking on bacon — prompting Dad Instinct Rizz to spring into action before apparently returning to his omelet like he'd just completed a minor household chore. Lern has also researched emergency procedures for cats, because of course she has. Then Lern returns from Table Rock Lake and the crew settles an important semantic argument: was this a “vacation” or merely a “trip”? Her family getaway included Table Rock, Top of the Rock, an expensive golf-cart cave tour, fake rocks, Branson energy, a canned cave cocktail and enough nickel-and-diming to make you wonder if the scenery charges a convenience fee. The review? Roughly three out of five stars. Nature: beautiful. Family bonding: great. Branson sneaking into the cave like it owns the place: inevitable. The technology portion of today's funny podcast begins when we discover apparently nobody knows how to go anywhere without GPS anymore. After a phone dies around Belleville, getting home becomes a heroic expedition involving memory, highway signs and the ancient navigation technique known as “I think this road eventually hits 270.” That leads perfectly into “popcorn brain,” the term for what happens when our attention starts bouncing between notifications, videos, headlines and entertainment like somebody dumped a bucket of mental popcorn into our skulls. Rizz has watched it happen with his kids, Rafe admits it happens to him during the show, and suddenly everybody realizes this isn't just a teenager problem. We're all cooked. Rafe also celebrates his 3,000th comedy set, which is legitimately impressive and therefore cannot be discussed for long without everyone confusing Mr. 3000 with Mr. Baseball. Congratulations, Rafe. Three thousand performances and you're still voluntarily sitting in this studio. Incredible commitment. Questionable judgment. Finally, St. Louis summer enters the chat. With heat indexes soaring and fall sports practices underway, the crew gets into wet-bulb temperatures, football conditioning, old-school two-a-days, water breaks, marching-band misery and whether parents should make kids finish what they start or accept when something simply isn't for them. Naturally this evolves into expensive travel sports, cheer schedules, obscure athletic scholarships and perhaps the greatest college strategy ever conceived: pick the sport nobody else wants to do. Pole vault your way to financial freedom, kids. It's skin tags, parenting panic, family vacations, technology dependence, short attention spans, youth sports and enough unrelated detours to prove that “popcorn brain” may actually be the official operating system of The Rizzuto Show. Another perfectly normal funny podcast from people who absolutely had a plan when the microphones turned on.

Rizzuto is back from France, which means it’s finally time to answer the question nobody asked: Can one man visit one of the most beautiful cities in the world and still come home with enough complaints to fill a morning show? Oui. An Amber Alert that woke up half the city before taking a bizarre turn, plus Scott’s live music adventure at Copper Fire, where the performance went great once the minor technical issue of the speakers actually producing sound was finally addressed. We also learn that Rizzuto is approaching the end of age 47, supposedly the happiest year of his life. Great news to discover right before it expires. Then comes important local Italian-American business: the world’s oldest ravioli maker is opening its first U.S. manufacturing facility in St. Charles. Naturally, Rizzuto immediately begins wondering why his invitation to the ribbon cutting hasn’t arrived. If there’s a giant ravioli involved and this man isn’t allowed to emerge from it holding an oversized pizza cutter, then frankly, what are we even doing here? There are positives. The Paris Catacombs were incredible, featuring the bones of millions of people and the mildly unsettling realization that apparently enough tourists try to steal human remains that bags need to be checked on the way out. A nighttime river cruise delivered gorgeous views of the Eiffel Tower. There were baguettes. There was an absolutely elite steak sandwich. And yes, Paris itself occasionally managed to impress our extremely difficult international correspondent. One cab driver takes the scenic interpretation of “wrong direction,” keeps the meter running, and eventually gets into a heated French argument with Rizz. Travel chaos continues with a kid refusing to buckle a seatbelt and helping get an entire flight canceled overnight. From there, we examine airport security and the long-running liquid restrictions that have forced generations of travelers to choose between personal hygiene and bringing enough shampoo to survive Tuesday. A golfer allegedly fakes a hole-in-one for thousands of dollars using a sick-grandma phone call as cover, and somehow that’s only the beginning of today’s nonsense. Hill’s Brazilian jiu-jitsu confidence gets the Rizz Show treatment as the guys debate martial arts, celebrity bravado, Michael Cera’s hypothetical fighting abilities and why the people who could actually fold you into a carry-on bag are usually the least interested in telling everybody about it. We also celebrate Missouri’s birthday with a rundown of inventions, foods and famous names tied to the Show-Me State. Toasted ravioli? Obviously. Gooey butter cake? Put some respect on it. The microchip? Apparently Missouri has been doing a little more than deep-frying carbohydrates this whole time. Crap on Celebrities arrives with another truckload of entertainment gossip and pop culture commentary. Mark Zuckerberg’s massive yacht gets dragged into controversy after a stranded boat reportedly needed help in Alaska. Britney Spears warns fans about a bad Botox experience. The crew gets into movie box-office numbers, Spider-Man, Super Troopers, Bugonia, Weapons and The Dink, because apparently nobody can simply say “I liked the movie” without turning it into a federal hearing. There’s also Harry Potter actress Jessie Cave discussing the surprising money she’s making on OnlyFans without nudity, Blink-182 heading back into the studio, Five Nights at Freddy’s becoming an actual immersive restaurant experience, and a debate over the greatest new wave singers that quickly proves nobody is completely sure where “new wave” begins or ends. A study suggesting people are speaking 30% fewer words per day than they did 20 years ago. Texting, remote work, apps, online ordering, and our collective desire to avoid asking strangers how their day is going may be slowly murdering small talk. Naturally, this turns into a debate over whether small talk is an important social skill or just an obstacle standing between you and the salad you ordered downstairs. Moon admits that talking to strangers has basically become his personal training regimen, Rafe defends the lost art of actually communicating with another human being, Scott brings the small-town friendliness, and Rizz is patiently waiting for telepathy so he can stop participating altogether. First up: is having roommates a romantic deal breaker? A dating trend suggests some singles see living alone as proof that you've got your life together financially and personally. That raises the obvious question: do men and women judge this the same way? Rafe has some thoughts, including exactly how much questionable housekeeping a man might overlook when he finds someone attractive. We regret to inform you the answer is: quite a bit. A 29-year-old comedian and influencer went viral after canceling a first date with a 38-year-old finance guy because his restaurant selection was too casual. Her argument? The restaurant a potential partner chooses says something about compatibility, lifestyle, and effort.

Apparently, humans are talking less, dating costs roughly the GDP of a small island nation, and picking the wrong restaurant might get you rejected before you even order an appetizer. Welcome to another funny podcast episode of The Rizzuto Show, where modern romance, social skills, and basic human interaction are put under the microscope by several men who may or may not be qualified to operate said microscope. The crew kicks things off with a study suggesting people are speaking 30% fewer words per day than they did 20 years ago. Texting, remote work, apps, online ordering, and our collective desire to avoid asking strangers how their day is going may be slowly murdering small talk. Naturally, this turns into a debate over whether small talk is an important social skill or just an obstacle standing between you and the salad you ordered downstairs. Moon admits that talking to strangers has basically become his personal training regimen, Rafe defends the lost art of actually communicating with another human being, Scott brings the small-town friendliness, and Rizz is patiently waiting for telepathy so he can stop participating altogether. Then things somehow get philosophical. Are social media platforms actually “social” anymore? Did we replace friends with followers? Are we eventually getting an app where everyone just grunts at each other? Honestly, don't rule it out. From there, the funny podcast chaos heads directly into dating. First up: is having roommates a romantic deal breaker? A dating trend suggests some singles see living alone as proof that you've got your life together financially and personally. That raises the obvious question: do men and women judge this the same way? Rafe has some thoughts, including exactly how much questionable housekeeping a man might overlook when he finds someone attractive. We regret to inform you the answer is: quite a bit. Money isn't helping matters either. A survey says 25% of Americans believe their financial situation has prevented them from finding true love, while the conversation introduces an estimated six-figure salary tied to feeling financially ready for romance. Apparently Cupid has updated his terms of service and now requires proof of income. Finally, we arrive at the Great Restaurant Debate. A 29-year-old comedian and influencer went viral after canceling a first date with a 38-year-old finance guy because his restaurant selection was too casual. Her argument? The restaurant a potential partner chooses says something about compatibility, lifestyle, and effort. The show's counterargument quickly becomes slightly less scientific: what exactly qualifies someone as “Chili's material”? Moon defends the right to have whatever ridiculous dating standards you want. Rizz defends his right to judge those ridiculous standards. Rafe points out that what many guys consider an elaborate special occasion might basically be what women already organize with their friends on a random Sunday. Somehow everybody has a point, which is deeply inconvenient. So what's the real dating red flag: roommates, bad texting, cheap restaurants, unrealistic expectations, or being incapable of carrying on a five-minute phone conversation? We don't solve any of those problems, obviously. But this funny podcast does provide plenty of unsolicited analysis from Rizz, Moon Valjean, King Scott, and Rafe Williams. Come for the death of small talk. Stay for the dating economics. Leave questioning whether you're fancy-restaurant material or destined for the 2-for-$20 forever.

A golfer allegedly fakes a hole-in-one for thousands of dollars using a sick-grandma phone call as cover, and somehow that’s only the beginning of today’s nonsense. The Rizzuto Show is back with another funny podcast packed with St. Louis chaos, celebrity gossip, questionable decisions, movie arguments, music trivia, and the sort of stories that make you wonder how we’ve managed to keep microphones this long. The main event comes straight out of the St. Louis area, where a member golf tournament at WingHaven Country Club reportedly turned into an elaborate hole-in-one caper. According to the story, a golfer told his group that his grandma was in the hospital and he might need to step away for an important phone call. Totally understandable. Very wholesome. Absolutely nothing suspicious happening here. Then the call arrives near a par-three hole. He heads up alone, supposedly hits his tee shot while nobody is watching, and when everyone reaches the green… would you look at that? His ball is IN THE HOLE. A hole-in-one! What a miracle! Grandma must be so proud! There’s just one tiny problem: cameras. The crew digs into the allegations that surveillance footage caught the golfer visiting the hole before the round, creating a divot and putting a ball in the cup. Suddenly, Grandma’s hospital call becomes one of the most aggressively suspicious excuses in golf history. With reports that the hole-in-one pot may have been around $9,000, the guys debate the most important question: how much money does it take before you’re willing to risk becoming the guy who allegedly invented a medical emergency for Grandma to cheat at golf? From there, this funny podcast moves naturally into the next logical subject: whether Jonah Hill could annihilate everyone in a fight. Hill’s Brazilian jiu-jitsu confidence gets the Rizz Show treatment as the guys debate martial arts, celebrity bravado, Michael Cera’s hypothetical fighting abilities and why the people who could actually fold you into a carry-on bag are usually the least interested in telling everybody about it. We also celebrate Missouri’s birthday with a rundown of inventions, foods and famous names tied to the Show-Me State. Toasted ravioli? Obviously. Gooey butter cake? Put some respect on it.

Add in Bob Marley’s ridiculous Billboard longevity, the biggest-selling albums of all time, celebrity birthdays and the usual collection of side quests, arguments and unnecessary observations, and you’ve got another daily dose of The Rizzuto Show. It’s celebrity news, weird news, St. Louis stories and sarcastic humor crammed into one comedy podcast — because apparently discussing an alleged fake hole-in-one for this long is considered a profession.

Rizzuto is back from France, which means it’s finally time to answer the question nobody asked: Can one man visit one of the most beautiful cities in the world and still come home with enough complaints to fill a morning show? Oui. Episode 114 begins back home in St. Louis with an Amber Alert that woke up half the city before taking a bizarre turn, plus Scott’s live music adventure at Copper Fire, where the performance went great once the minor technical issue of the speakers actually producing sound was finally addressed. We also learn that Rizzuto is approaching the end of age 47, supposedly the happiest year of his life. Great news to discover right before it expires. Then comes important local Italian-American business: the world’s oldest ravioli maker is opening its first U.S. manufacturing facility in St. Charles. Naturally, Rizzuto immediately begins wondering why his invitation to the ribbon cutting hasn’t arrived. If there’s a giant ravioli involved and this man isn’t allowed to emerge from it holding an oversized pizza cutter, then frankly, what are we even doing here? But the main event is Rizzuto’s triumphant return from Paris. He kept notes. A lot of notes. There are positives. The Paris Catacombs were incredible, featuring the bones of millions of people and the mildly unsettling realization that apparently enough tourists try to steal human remains that bags need to be checked on the way out. A nighttime river cruise delivered gorgeous views of the Eiffel Tower. There were baguettes. There was an absolutely elite steak sandwich. And yes, Paris itself occasionally managed to impress our extremely difficult international correspondent. Unfortunately for France, this is a comedy podcast, so we also need to discuss the complaints. Why is getting cold water apparently an international negotiation? Where is the ice? Why won’t restaurants bring the check? Why does everything close when Rizzuto needs something? Is air conditioning merely a rumor Europeans started to make Americans feel comfortable booking flights? Is the Mona Lisa overrated? Is the Eiffel Tower overrated? Is the food overrated? And why did an Airbnb leave the family sweating in a hallway for 45 minutes while they tried to figure out how to get inside? Then there’s transportation. One cab driver allegedly takes the scenic interpretation of “wrong direction,” keeps the meter running, and eventually gets into a heated French argument with Rizzuto. Rizzuto attempts to hold firm on the fare and ultimately negotiates himself a breathtaking discount of roughly fifteen bucks. International diplomacy is alive and well. The crew eventually tallies Rizzuto’s Paris complaints, because apparently his vacation needed independent auditing. Travel chaos continues with a kid refusing to buckle a seatbelt and helping get an entire flight canceled overnight. From there, we examine airport security and the long-running liquid restrictions that have forced generations of travelers to choose between personal hygiene and bringing enough shampoo to survive Tuesday. Somehow this becomes a discussion involving Die Hard with a Vengeance, Jeremy Irons, TSA logic, confiscated hairspray and the exact amount of liquid apparently required before civilization collapses. And after all the monuments, bones, baguettes, questionable air conditioning, transportation drama and French customer service, Rizzuto finally lands back in St. Louis and realizes something important: He loves it here. Nothing makes home look better than an international vacation and a lukewarm glass of water. It’s travel stories, St. Louis nonsense, weird news, daily humor and several completely unnecessary arguments packed into another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show. Come for the Paris vacation recap. Stay for the debate over whether holding a perfect French sandwich like a newborn baby is an acceptable response to lunch. This comedy podcast may not improve international relations, but at least we have ice. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Lern prepares for a family getaway to Table Rock Lake that quickly turns into a debate over golf carts, caves, spas, and whether anyone actually wants to leave the house. The gang dives into the strange pressure of family vacations, why everyone wakes up before sunrise, and whether it's okay to disappear for a solo adventure just to save your sanity. Meanwhile, Rafe makes an emotional confession about falling back in love with cheese after attempting a dairy-free experiment, leading to one of the funniest conversations about comfort food you'll hear all week. The crew also argues over the greatest fast-food burgers in America, gives Dairy Queen's food menu the respect it deserves, and somehow ends up discussing Sonic-related trauma that's apparently lasted decades. Moon continues his streak of bringing the internet's strangest lists, including the world's best food cities, the worst drivers in America, the most romantic cities, and a collection of Victorian slang words that quickly derail into pure nonsense. Somehow "Cupid's kettle drums" becomes a legitimate on-air discussion. There's plenty of classic Rizz Show chemistry throughout as the crew bounces from travel stories to family drama, awkward Airbnb experiences, summer spending habits, childhood freedom, and everything in between. It's exactly the kind of organized chaos listeners expect from a daily comedy show that never stays on one topic for very long. Guns N' Roses recording new music, Green Day launching a 24/7 YouTube channel, Perez Hilton's heartbreaking situation, a Nicolas Cage John to play King Scott in a new movie, Robert Pattinson becoming Chris Hansen, and perhaps the strangest movie trailer any of us have ever seen... Wicker. Meanwhile, Slash says Guns N' Roses are finally writing new music again, and for longtime fans that's almost as unbelievable as hearing Axl and Slash are actually getting along. The gang dives into what that reunion means, why Chinese Democracy still feels like it took several presidential administrations to arrive, and whether this album might finally become reality. Music nerds also get excited over Green Day launching a nonstop streaming channel full of concerts, music videos, and rare footage, sparking an entire conversation about why every legendary band should basically become their own MTV. On the celebrity side of the world, things take a much more serious turn as the crew discusses Perez Hilton's recent hospitalization and how public perception changes when someone who built a career covering celebrity meltdowns experiences one of his own. It's thoughtful, honest, and still unmistakably The Rizzuto Show. Movie fans get plenty to chew on with Super Troopers 3, Grown Ups 3, Madden starring Nicolas Cage, Jurassic production drama, and one of the creepiest trailers of the year featuring Robert Pattinson transforming into Chris Hansen. Somehow that's still only the second weirdest trailer discussed. Then, because no Friday is complete without an argument nobody asked for, the crew debates the greatest Disney animated films ever made. Beauty and the Beast? Lion King? Toy Story? Aladdin getting snubbed? Feel free to yell at your speakers along with everyone else. Moon breaks down some of the biggest beer myths you've probably believed your entire life. Does beer really cause a beer belly? Are dark beers actually stronger? Is draft beer secretly responsible for your hangover? The gang debates science versus "trust me, bro" logic before somehow ending up discussing functional beers loaded with vitamins, probiotics, adaptogens, and enough wellness buzzwords to confuse your local brewery. Rafe returns with another legendary In Memoriam segment featuring everything the show managed to completely derail throughout the week. We revisit the listener email that somehow sparked the now-infamous horny pilgrim ghost conversation, proving once again that The Rizzuto Show audience has a very specific line between "too weird" and "perfectly acceptable." The crew also pays tribute to thousands of dollars worth of stolen Little Debbie snack cakes, because apparently organized crime has moved on from cash and drugs to Cosmic Brownies and Oatmeal Creme Pies. You'll also hear discussions about bizarre new baby names like Chaos, Rooster and Gatorade, King Scott embracing both silk bonnets and fixing appliances, Jimmy Buffett versus Warren Buffett confusion, Taco Bell settlement drama, dangerous Q-tip habits that may or may not unlock another dimension, and Moon's passionate defense of Guinness Zero. As always, Rafe wraps things up with his hilarious rapid-fire memorials before ending on heartfelt tributes to several notable figures who passed away this week, balancing absurd comedy with genuine respect in a way only this crew can.

International Beer Day seemed like a perfectly normal way to start the show... until it absolutely wasn't. This daily comedy podcast begins with Moon breaking down some of the biggest beer myths you've probably believed your entire life. Does beer really cause a beer belly? Are dark beers actually stronger? Is draft beer secretly responsible for your hangover? The gang debates science versus "trust me, bro" logic before somehow ending up discussing functional beers loaded with vitamins, probiotics, adaptogens, and enough wellness buzzwords to confuse your local brewery. Then things get appropriately weird. Rafe returns with another legendary In Memoriam segment featuring everything the show managed to completely derail throughout the week.

Summer weekends are supposed to be relaxing... unless your family accidentally rents a lake house that isn't actually on the lake. This episode of The Rizzuto Show is packed with the kind of beautifully random conversations that only happen on a daily comedy show. Lauren prepares for a family getaway to Table Rock Lake that quickly turns into a debate over golf carts, caves, spas, and whether anyone actually wants to leave the house. The gang dives into the strange pressure of family vacations, why everyone wakes up before sunrise, and whether it's okay to disappear for a solo adventure just to save your sanity. Meanwhile, Rafe makes an emotional confession about falling back in love with cheese after attempting a dairy-free experiment, leading to one of the funniest conversations about comfort food you'll hear all week.

It's Friday, which means absolutely nothing makes sense anymore. Today's comedy podcast somehow manages to connect Guns N' Roses recording new music, Green Day launching a 24/7 YouTube channel, Perez Hilton's heartbreaking situation, a Nicolas Cage John Madden movie, Robert Pattinson becoming Chris Hansen, and perhaps the strangest movie trailer any of us have ever seen... Wicker. Yes. A movie about a man literally made of wicker. Naturally, the show spends way too much time trying to figure out why half the internet suddenly wants to date a decorative patio basket. There are jokes about Pier 1 Imports that absolutely shouldn't work—but somehow do—and the crew completely loses it imagining the logistics of dating someone who probably needs to stay away from open flames. Meanwhile, Slash says Guns N' Roses are finally writing new music again, and for longtime fans that's almost as unbelievable as hearing Axl and Slash are actually getting along. The gang dives into what that reunion means, why Chinese Democracy still feels like it took several presidential administrations to arrive, and whether this album might finally become reality. Music nerds also get excited over Green Day launching a nonstop streaming channel full of concerts, music videos, and rare footage, sparking an entire conversation about why every legendary band should basically become their own MTV.

Then, because no Friday is complete without an argument nobody asked for, the crew debates the greatest Disney animated films ever made. Beauty and the Beast? Lion King? Toy Story? Aladdin getting snubbed? Feel free to yell at your speakers along with everyone else. It's packed with rock news, pop culture commentary, ridiculous observations, bizarre movie discussions, celebrity gossip, nostalgic music memories, and enough sarcastic nonsense to carry you into the weekend. If you like your mornings loud, weird, funny, and just a little unhinged, this comedy podcast delivers exactly what you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show... and probably several things you never saw coming.

This episode starts with stormy weather and surprisingly good moods before spiraling into one of those classic Rizz Show conversations where absolutely nothing stays on the rails. One minute everyone's discussing thunderstorms, Jason Sklar stopping by the show, and preparations for Rizz's upcoming birthday celebration. The next minute, an unexpected study claims that 47 is the happiest age of your life, immediately putting Rizz under the microscope as the crew debates whether he's actually become a happier human being over the years. That naturally leads to a full-on birthday debate. Are you someone who celebrates for an entire week with parties, brunches, vacations, and enough cake to feed a small town? Or are you the type who hopes nobody notices your birthday at all? The crew dives into the psychology behind birthday people versus birthday avoiders, sharing stories about how their own families handled birthdays growing up and how the show's attitude toward celebrating has completely changed over the years. Along the way, they confess the embarrassing things they learned way too late in life. From believing Elton John was blind because of his sunglasses to confusing Jimmy Buffett with Warren Buffett, nobody escapes the roast. Lauren admits her biggest regret is never paying attention in history class, while everyone else piles on with stories that somehow become even more ridiculous. Then it's time for one of the greatest grocery store discussions ever recorded. Boomers' biggest complaints about modern shopping somehow evolve into a business pitch involving off-road grocery carts, dune buggies with shopping baskets, lift kits for grabbing cereal off the top shelf, Bluetooth speakers, themed vehicles, and of course, an extensive update on the latest developments in Uncrustables technology. Yes... refrigerated Uncrustables become breaking news. Yes... everyone takes it completely seriously. The chaos keeps rolling with questionable life advice passed down from older generations, hilarious family sayings that somehow stuck forever, and a continuation of yesterday's impossible moral dilemma involving crimes, saving dogs, and making the world a better place in the weirdest ways imaginable. Later, the conversation turns surprisingly wholesome as the crew discusses new research into helping dogs live healthier, longer lives. Would you pay thousands of dollars for a few more healthy years with your best friend? Everyone has a different answer, and the discussion gets unexpectedly heartfelt before immediately swerving back into shark attacks, dangerous animals across America, and why Missouri's deadliest creature isn't nearly as exciting as you'd hope. As always, the conversation refuses to stay in one lane for more than a few minutes. That's exactly what makes this daily comedy show feel like you're hanging out with friends who accidentally turn every headline into an hour of laughs, random tangents, and conversations nobody saw coming. Whether you're here for birthday debates, grocery store adventures, ridiculous hypotheticals, weird news, celebrity mentions, or the latest in frozen sandwich innovation, Episode 49 delivers another unpredictable ride from The Rizzuto Show. Sometimes the show writes itself... and sometimes history, celebrity news, and complete nonsense all decide to show up at the exact same time. On today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, the crew kicks things off with "This Day in History," featuring everything from the first electric chair execution to the anniversary of the Enola Gay mission, classic Beatles releases, MTV nostalgia, Pineapple Express, Hamilton, and a whole lot more. It's somehow educational... if your history teacher had severe ADHD. The crew also takes a heartfelt moment to remember St. Louis jewelry legend John Reusch, whose impact stretched far beyond engagement rings. Rizz and Moon share personal stories about what made him such a special part of so many families' biggest moments, making this one of the most genuine conversations you'll hear on the show. Then it's back to the chaos. Lern brings a stacked edition of Crap on Celebrities featuring Weezer's newest single, the unexpected return of the New Radicals after decades away, Queens of the Stone Age inviting fans to literally call and complain, Deftones climbing the charts again thanks to Netflix, and a surprisingly honest conversation about Whoopi Goldberg's massive paycheck from The View. Things only get weirder from there. The crew dives into the upcoming O.J. Simpson documentary that explores the bizarre hidden-camera prank show that almost became something entirely different. They somehow spiral into discussing obscure cult movies like Gentlemen Broncos, reality TV addictions, BMW dashboards serving advertisements, Charlie Sheen's brand-new podcast, and whether anyone actually wants more access to the show via a complaint hotline. Naturally, the episode wraps the only way The Rizzuto Show knows how—with celebrity birthdays, one of the most ridiculous porno birthdays ever, and enough sarcasm to keep everyone employed another day. If you love ridiculous conversations that somehow mix heartfelt moments with celebrity nonsense, weird news, music, movies, and pop culture, you've found your people. This daily comedy show delivers everything from celebrity gossip to bizarre history lessons, random rabbit holes, and the kind of conversations that somehow make perfect sense before 10 a.m. Whether you're listening on the drive to work, pretending to work, or hiding from responsibilities altogether, thanks for hanging out with The Rizzuto Show, your favorite daily comedy show and home for unpredictable conversations, St. Louis humor, and the kind of comedy that absolutely shouldn't work... but somehow always does. If today's episode made you laugh, share it with a friend who also appreciates complete conversational whiplash. An unexpectedly wholesome note with stories that restore your faith in humanity. A Wisconsin man hands over the keys to his SUV so a stranded rock band can finish its tour. A father and son complete an entire year of playing catch every single day. A tiny Chihuahua's strange habit helps detect a dangerous illness before it's too late. It's the kind of start that makes you think everyone on the show is about to become better people. That feeling doesn't last long. The crew immediately launches into another round of the legendary Bean Boozled "Good or Gross" game, where listeners win concert tickets while the show risks tasting everything from rotten eggs and boogers to barf, toothpaste, dirty dishwater and dead fish. Somehow, against all odds, this becomes one of the luckiest rounds they've ever played... although luck is a relative term when toothpaste counts as a win. The conversation only gets weirder from there. How much money would you need before willingly giving up inches of your height forever? Would you become Danny DeVito-sized for a million dollars? Would you sacrifice ten inches for fifty million? The crew debates every ridiculous scenario while discovering everyone values their height a little differently. Then things unexpectedly get surprisingly honest when listener emails spark a conversation about saying "I love you" first in a relationship. How long is too long to wait for someone to say it back? What happens if they never do? One listener's real-life story turns into one of the more thoughtful discussions of the episode before everyone quickly returns to making fun of each other. Listener emails also inspire debates about fake email addresses for stores that insist on collecting your information, why prescription medications deserve cooler superhero names, and whether our parents' inability to throw anything away is simply leftover survival instinct passed down through generations. Like every daily comedy podcast, the episode bounces effortlessly between heartfelt stories, ridiculous games, bizarre hypotheticals, listener interaction and nonstop sarcastic commentary that somehow keeps the entire morning moving. Whether you're here for the disgusting Bean Boozled reactions, the hilarious debates, the weird listener emails or simply looking for your next daily comedy podcast, Episode 158 delivers another completely unpredictable morning with The Rizzuto Show.

Tim McKernan and Anthony Stalter break down what could be the most chaotic conference in college football this season. With several teams gunning for Texas Tech’s throne after Brenden Sorsby’s suspension. Will the title stay in Lubbock? Then we’re heading out East. Will the Eagles take home their 3rd straight NFC East title? Or will it be Dallas taking back the division? Plus the PGA regular season is closing out with the Wyndham Championship. Which golfers need the win the most, how a win here could get them off the bubble for the FedEx cup. The Spread Zone is presented by @FanDuel Sportsbook!

Welcome back to another shot-out-of-a-cannon episode of The Rizzuto Show! It’s Wednesday, everybody’s burning the midnight oil, and the crew is diving deep into what it actually takes to survive the morning grind. First up, we unpack the ultimate nighttime sleep routine. From Lern getting into bed strictly at 8:30 PM to Moon laying upside down with his legs up the wall like a red-lens-wearing alien, everyone has a bizarre trick for catching Zs. We go around the room comparing bedroom thermostat temperatures—settling the eternal debate between freezing 66° Arctic expeditions and crazy 78° hot boxes—and reveal America's scientifically proven ideal room temp. Plus, King Scott drops a bomb about his silk hair bonnet routine! Next, in honor of National Underwear Day, we rundown the top 7 underwear brands in America, call out cheap multi-pack basics, and debate whether self-cleaning, odor-free shirts made of volcanic ash and gold are revolutionary or gross. Things get weird fast when the gang breaks down why sticking Q-tips in your ears feels like an out-of-body astral experience, despite every ear doctor begging you to stop. We also reflect on things that were taboo 10 years ago that are totally normal now—like location sharing, canceling plans as self-care, talking about mental health, and the rapid rise of AI. Finally, with King Scott preparing for fatherhood, Moon brings out the official Social Security Administration data to review 50 of the absolute strangest baby names given to infants last year. Would you name your child Gator, Rooster, Chaos, or literally Infant Girl? Rizz is currently living it up (and complaining his way through) Paris, so the rest of the gang is holding down the fort! First up, the crew breaks down French Rizz’s Instagram updates and sets up a tallies bet for his return. Moon takes the high road with a modest 2 complaints, but Rafe goes big with a prediction of 10 separate grievances ranging from Chicago layovers to rude Uber drivers. Next, in Crap on Celebrities, Lern brings a controversial viral list of stars who allegedly suck at their crafts. The team passionately debates J.Lo's entertainer status, Taylor Swift's basicness claims, Snoop Dogg's legendary style, Keanu Reeves' acting chops, and whether Bob Dylan is just trolling everyone at this point. Finally, Moon shares personal stories about Linkin Park following the trailer drop for their new documentary Unshatter, and Rafe runs through today's wild pornstar birthdays! The Rizz Quiz Showdown, Rage Tribute & Big Trivia Victories The gang is live from the Bud Light Studio, throwing down the ultimate 90s throwback hype and testing caller brains with the return of Rizz Quiz! First, Moon breaks down all the details for the Rizzuto Birthday Bash at Delmar Hall—complete with Bags Against the Machine delivering a full Rage Against the Machine headlining set, a Blink-182 tribute, and the Pin-Up Bowl pre-party.

Rizz is currently living it up (and complaining his way through) Paris, so the rest of the gang is holding down the fort! First up, the crew breaks down French Rizz’s Instagram updates and sets up a tallies bet for his return. Moon takes the high road with a modest 2 complaints, but Rafe goes big with a prediction of 10 separate grievances ranging from Chicago layovers to rude Uber drivers. Next, in Crap on Celebrities, Lern brings a controversial viral list of stars who allegedly suck at their crafts. The team passionately debates J.Lo's entertainer status, Taylor Swift's basicness claims, Snoop Dogg's legendary style, Keanu Reeves' acting chops, and whether Bob Dylan is just trolling everyone at this point. Finally, Moon shares personal stories about Linkin Park following the trailer drop for their new documentary Unshatter, and Rafe runs through today's wild adult entertainment star birthdays!

Welcome back to another shot-out-of-a-cannon episode of The Rizzuto Show! It’s Wednesday, everybody’s burning the midnight oil, and the crew is diving deep into what it actually takes to survive the morning grind. First up, we unpack the ultimate nighttime sleep routine. From Lern getting into bed strictly at 8:30 PM to Moon laying upside down with his legs up the wall like a red-lens-wearing alien, everyone has a bizarre trick for catching Zs. We go around the room comparing bedroom thermostat temperatures—settling the eternal debate between freezing 66° Arctic expeditions and crazy 78° hot boxes—and reveal America's scientifically proven ideal room temp. Plus, King Scott drops a bomb about his silk hair bonnet routine! Next, in honor of National Underwear Day, we rundown the top 7 underwear brands in America, call out cheap multi-pack basics, and debate whether self-cleaning, odor-free shirts made of volcanic ash and gold are revolutionary or gross. Things get weird fast when the gang breaks down why sticking Q-tips in your ears feels like an out-of-body astral experience, despite every ear doctor begging you to stop. We also reflect on things that were taboo 10 years ago that are totally normal now—like location sharing, canceling plans as self-care, talking about mental health, and the rapid rise of AI. Finally, with King Scott preparing for fatherhood, Moon brings out the official Social Security Administration data to review 50 of the absolute strangest baby names given to infants last year. Would you name your child Gator, Rooster, Chaos, or literally Infant Girl? If your favorite kind of comedy podcast involves bizarre news, sarcastic commentary, and friends laughing at humanity's complete inability to act normal, you've found your people. This comedy podcast delivers another daily dose of unbelievable headlines, ridiculous conversations, and the kind of stories that make you question whether the internet was a mistake—or the greatest invention ever.

Moon tells the story of cleaning out his late father's shed with his son, which quickly turns into a surprisingly emotional conversation about family keepsakes, collecting way too much stuff, and why every dad apparently owns three sledgehammers, twelve mystery tools, and enough spare lumber to rebuild civilization. The gang swaps stories about grandparents, handwritten cards, sentimental treasures, and the impossible task of deciding what deserves to be kept. Of course, it wouldn't be a comedy podcast without the conversation immediately veering into flying lawnmowers, runaway highway cargo, giant pizza ovens crashing into overpasses, protein trends making baby formula more expensive, tanning bed myths making a comeback, and whether today's health advice changes every six months just to keep everyone confused. Then comes the scientific discovery nobody asked for—but everyone will remember: the mysterious phenomenon known as "gym penis." The crew investigates the surprisingly legitimate medical explanation behind workout shrinkage, resulting in one of the most ridiculous conversations you'll hear all week. We also cover changing marijuana habits in America, random facts you can pretend you already knew, Netflix's very first DVD shipment, Red Hot Chili Peppers trivia, China's single time zone, why Nevada still doesn't have a lottery, and yes... exactly how many bags of astronaut waste are still sitting on the moon. While Rizz is living his best Parisian life—posing in photos where you can barely find him, exploring landmarks, and eating his way across France—the crew decides his vacation deserves one thing: relentless psychological warfare. Instead of wishing him a happy birthday, they're fully committed to convincing him that saying "My condolences, Rizz" has always been the correct greeting. It's organized gaslighting... for friendship. From there, the episode refuses to slow down. Lern dives into the latest celebrity news including Slipknot's split with Sid Wilson, Kelly Osbourne's mysterious social media posts, MGK sharing the frightening moment that convinced him to get sober, and the surprisingly real reunion between David Lee Roth and Alex Van Halen... at a TED Talk of all places. The crew also debates Jelly Roll stepping away from touring, Travis Kelce navigating life under the Taylor Swift spotlight, and why celebrity has become its own business long after the music stops paying the biggest bills. Movie fans get plenty to chew on as Spider-Man: Brand New Day smashes box office records while one unfortunate theater audience experiences what may be cinema history after one person's catastrophic flatulence reportedly emptied an entire screening. Yes... that actually becomes a serious discussion. Things somehow become even stranger when the conversation shifts to Lollapalooza, where festival etiquette reaches a brand-new low involving bags of urine being passed through crowds. The gang debates survival strategies for massive concerts, including crowd surfing your way to the restroom before disaster strikes. You'll also get Today in History, celebrity birthdays, Crap on Celebrities, listener-worthy side conversations, and one of the most ridiculous Porno Birthday segments in recent memory. If you're looking for a daily comedy podcast packed with sarcastic humor, weird news, celebrity gossip, pop culture commentary, and the kind of conversations that somehow spiral from Paris tourism to protein-shake theater farts, you've found your people. Florida somehow managed to arrest Superman... and honestly, we're not even surprised anymore. Episode 315 starts with one of the strangest headlines of the week as a man dressed head-to-toe as Superman gets caught burglarizing a boat. Turns out truth, justice, and stealing power tools don't mix very well. Then things somehow get even weirder. Tennessee has made it easier to legally own pet raccoons, which sends the crew into an unexpectedly passionate debate about trash pandas, raccoon distribution centers, and why giving tiny burglars opposable thumbs was probably nature's biggest mistake. We also visit a Canadian town that's spent twenty years living next to over a million liters of rotting fish sauce, discuss why rechargeable hand warmers are suddenly becoming miniature flamethrowers, and explain why home buyers should assume every showing is secretly being recorded. As if Zillow listings weren't strange enough already, one Colorado home is listed with an occupant who openly refuses to leave after a decade-plus foreclosure battle, creating perhaps the most awkward real estate listing ever posted. The news keeps rolling with a postal worker accused of stealing a winning lottery ticket, a fox caught red-handed stealing milk deliveries, and one incredibly determined beagle who attempted to consume approximately his own body weight in gummy worms. Naturally, this turns into stories about dogs eating everything from chocolate to rat poison while somehow refusing to die. We also break down new research showing Utah's lower DUI limit appears to be saving lives before finishing with perhaps the greatest police tactic ever invented: New Jersey officers wearing full ghillie suits disguised as shrubs to catch distracted drivers. It's equal parts genius, ridiculous, and exactly the kind of thing we'd expect to become the internet's next obsession.

If there was ever proof that The Rizzuto Show can descend into absolute chaos without Rizz sitting in the studio, this episode delivers in spectacular fashion. While Rizz is living his best Parisian life—posing in photos where you can barely find him, exploring landmarks, and eating his way across France—the crew decides his vacation deserves one thing: relentless psychological warfare. Instead of wishing him a happy birthday, they're fully committed to convincing him that saying "My condolences, Rizz" has always been the correct greeting.

Whether you're listening on your commute, at work, or pretending to be productive, this daily comedy podcast delivers exactly the kind of unpredictable entertainment that has made The Rizzuto Show one of St. Louis' favorite morning shows. Every episode mixes comedy, ridiculous news, celebrity chaos, and genuine friendship into something you never quite expect.

Some days the show practically writes itself... and today was one of those glorious train wrecks. We kick things off with the viral performance from Motown legend Martha Reeves and the internet's reaction to a music icon having an unexpectedly rough national anthem. The crew dives into why live performances can go sideways, shares stories from concerts gone wrong, and explains why sometimes it's not the singer—it's the gear. Then Moon tells the story of cleaning out his late father's shed with his son, which quickly turns into a surprisingly emotional conversation about family keepsakes, collecting way too much stuff, and why every dad apparently owns three sledgehammers, twelve mystery tools, and enough spare lumber to rebuild civilization. The gang swaps stories about grandparents, handwritten cards, sentimental treasures, and the impossible task of deciding what deserves to be kept. Of course, it wouldn't be a comedy podcast without the conversation immediately veering into flying lawnmowers, runaway highway cargo, giant pizza ovens crashing into overpasses, protein trends making baby formula more expensive, tanning bed myths making a comeback, and whether today's health advice changes every six months just to keep everyone confused.

It's weird. It's heartfelt. It's sarcastic. It's completely unnecessary in the best possible way. Just another day with The Rizzuto Show. Whether you're here for celebrity news, hilarious fails, weird stories, or conversations that somehow go from grieving parents to folded anatomy in record time, this comedy podcast has you covered.

French Rizz has officially landed in Paris... and immediately started taking the worst tourist photos in recorded history. While Rizz enjoys croissants, wine, and accidentally inventing "half-photo tourism," the rest of the crew takes over the studio and proves that absolutely nothing can stay on the rails for very long. Moon discovers that having an empty house sounds a lot more relaxing than it actually is, because apparently sitting still for more than six minutes causes immediate guilt. King Scott earns legitimate homeowner points by repairing his own dryer, immediately becoming every Midwest dad's favorite person. Lern shares the highs and lows of Copper Fire's latest show, where technical problems forced the band to improvise through feedback, monitor speakers, and pure determination. Sometimes rock and roll isn't glamorous... sometimes it's just hoping the audience sticks around anyway. Then Rafe returns from San Antonio with what may become one of the show's all-time travel stories. Between Southwest Airlines delays, airport complaints, Pee-wee Herman's bike inside the Alamo museum, and a confession involving the Alamo that definitely deserves its own historical plaque, the crew spends way too much time debating what actually counts as "peeing at the Alamo." It's exactly the kind of discussion you'd expect from your favorite daily comedy show. As if that wasn't enough, Taco Bell's lettuce lawsuit continues to grow, the crew debates whether $200 is enough compensation for catastrophic fast-food regret, someone steals thousands of dollars worth of Little Debbie snacks, Martha Stewart accidentally provides some unforgettable sound bites during National Grab Some Nuts Day, and everyone shares the snacks they secretly keep stocked around the studio. Throw in conversations about French vacations, delayed flights, NBA jerseys, the St. Louis Riverfront, fashion rankings, summer heat making everyone older, and the usual nonstop roasting between friends, and you've got another completely normal episode of The Rizzuto Show—which, of course, means absolutely nothing about it is normal. One hundred episodes in and somehow we've reached peak Rizz Show chaos. One mysterious coffee cake delivery instantly derails the entire morning as the crew debates legendary Missouri bakeries, family traditions, suspiciously delicious pastries, and whether one slice is enough motivation to break a Guinness World Record for push-ups. (Spoiler: probably not.) The gang dives into Ariana Grande taking a well-earned break after an exhausting run of performances while discussing the line between public concern and respecting someone's privacy. Then it's onto the latest mystery surrounding Slipknot's Sid Wilson, Smashing Pumpkins celebrating a massive hometown moment at Lollapalooza, William Shatner somehow becoming a heavy metal performer at 95, and a look back at one of television's most unforgettable characters. Movie lovers get plenty to chew on too. Spider-Man continues dominating theaters, Barbie 2 hits development roadblocks, and the crew wonders why Hollywood keeps rebooting everything instead of taking chances on original stories. Along the way they revisit cult classics, argue about the greatest television series ever made, celebrate indie filmmaking, and somehow end up ranking the most scientifically accurate disaster movies ever filmed. Because naturally that's where breakfast conversations lead. The laughs don't stop there. There's an ongoing push-up debate, questionable workout motivation involving coffee cake crumbs, "Back in the Day" history lessons, celebrity birthdays, bizarre Hollywood stories, ridiculous hypotheticals, and the kind of sarcastic banter that somehow turns every topic into comedy. With Rizz celebrating his birthday overseas, the gang decides that "Happy Birthday" is officially retired and immediately begins brainstorming the next long-term psychological prank. The mission? Convince him that everyone has always celebrated Happy Bastille Day, Rizz. The debate spirals into Mandela Effects, alternate realities, and enough gaslighting to make even the French question reality. Meanwhile, breakfast becomes an Olympic event as four boxes of donuts disappear at alarming speed while pre-workout somehow enters the equation. The crew debates whether they're fueling up for the gym or an emergency nap, and honestly nobody ever figures it out. Then comes one of the most unpredictable rounds of "3 in 5" in recent memory. Listeners battle through categories ranging from beans and famous vampires to Pixar movies, breakfast cereals, state capitals, and Tom Hanks films. Some contestants dominate. Others completely forget movies exist. Rules are forgotten. Rules are invented. Tickets are awarded anyway because apparently Charity Monday is alive and well. The conversation also dives into birthday bash planning, exclusive birthday beer names, concert giveaways, and plenty of classic Rizz Show side quests that somehow become funnier than the original topic. It is exactly the kind of organized chaos fans expect from a funny morning show that refuses to stay on script. Whether you're here for ridiculous games, sarcastic humor, listener interactions, or simply watching adults argue about whether "Happy Bastille Day" is a perfectly normal greeting, this episode delivers another unforgettable daily comedy podcast. If you're new here, welcome to the weird corner of the internet where logic takes the day off and everyone somehow leaves happier than they arrived.

Somehow we managed to pack lottery theft, family betrayal, international travel planning, terrifying roadside accidents, hot tub diseases, AI teachers, and a duct-taped iguana into one episode... and honestly, that barely scratches the surface. Scott is getting ready to head to Paris, which immediately turns into a debate about Jim Morrison's grave, French sandwiches, river swimming, smoking European cigarettes, and whether anyone voluntarily listens to The Doors anymore. Moon tries to be practical, Lern encourages absolute chaos, and somehow everyone ends up talking about hot tubs instead. Speaking of hot tubs... would you still climb into one after hearing about all the horrifying things that can apparently live inside them? From mysterious rashes to Legionnaires disease, the crew discovers there are way more reasons to shower after swimming than anyone wanted to know. Somehow this spirals into Russian bathhouses, vacation rentals, questionable romantic hot tubs, and why no one should ever trust an Airbnb jacuzzi without reading the laminated instructions. Then comes one of the strangest local stories we've covered in a while: someone duct-taped a giant iguana to a tree in St. Peters. Thankfully the reptile survives, but not before the crew imagines the poor guy giving a full police interrogation like he's starring in a crime movie. It's ridiculous, it's hilarious, and somehow also incredibly wholesome because a good dog named Mochi ends up saving the day. We also revisit one of everyone's biggest driving fears thanks to another Final Destination-style highway story involving a portable toilet that fell off a truck with tragic consequences. If you already avoid driving behind anything hauling oversized cargo, this episode won't help. Later, an AI-powered classroom robot gets canceled after parents realize the company behind it also manufactures highly realistic adult dolls. Naturally, that conversation goes exactly where you'd expect. Then Arizona State University announces a new bachelor's degree in content creation, kicking off a surprisingly thoughtful conversation about social media careers... before the sarcasm inevitably returns. TJ Miller sends the crew a surprise delivery of gourmet peanut butter before stopping by later, and suddenly everyone becomes an expert food critic. Cherry chocolate? Chocolate coconut? Toffee crunch? There are passionate opinions, questionable life choices, and at least one person ready to smear it on absolutely everything. Meanwhile, Lern officially reaches the finish line of an entire month without alcohol, and the crew wastes absolutely zero time asking the important questions. Does she feel different? Is she immediately celebrating? What exactly is the first airport drink after a month of sobriety? The answers lead to a surprisingly honest—and hilarious—conversation about habits, moderation, and why airport cocktails somehow exist outside normal life rules. Then things take another unexpected turn when the crew dives into brand-new statistics showing that daily marijuana use has officially surpassed daily alcohol consumption in America. Naturally, nobody can simply read the numbers and move on. Instead, the discussion wanders through changing social habits, cannabis culture, nightly routines, and whether America has quietly rewritten the rulebook on what "unwinding after work" actually looks like. As if that wasn't enough chaos already, the gang celebrates another birthday, previews everything coming in August—from football returning and Cardinals optimism to new TV shows, movies, and bizarre national holidays—and somehow manages to make even a calendar feel ridiculous. It's the perfect mix of weird news, sarcastic commentary, pop culture, and the kind of conversations that somehow only make sense when you're hanging out with The Rizzuto Show. Packed with funny stories, celebrity chatter, unexpected debates, and the kind of off-the-rails conversations that feel like you're sitting in the studio with the crew, you've found it. Whether you're here for the laughs, the ridiculous opinions, or simply wondering which peanut butter flavor wins the day, this episode delivers exactly the kind of unpredictable energy that keeps people coming back. Some people dream of peace and quiet. Other people point guitar amps out the window for seven straight years. Welcome to another completely normal daily comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show. This episode starts with one of the most ridiculous neighborhood stories we've seen in a long time—a guitarist in Japan whose nonstop hard rock obsession finally got him arrested after years of driving his neighbors absolutely insane. Naturally, the conversation spirals into terrible garage bands, learning guitar, drummers next door, digital rehearsals, and whether hearing someone slowly improve at "Smoke on the Water" actually counts as character development. From there the crew somehow pivots into travel planning as Rizz talks about wanting to take his daughter on a father-daughter trip before college. Paris? Maybe. Japan? Definitely on the list... unless Mom finds out and insists on coming too. Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where everything from Fleetwood Mac reunion rumors and Motley Crüe drama to Billy Idol, Alice In Chains, Madonna, Harry Styles, Donna Mills joining OnlyFans, and Netflix buying the entire Walking Dead universe gets thrown into the blender. The music conversations get especially nerdy as the crew debates backing tracks, live performances, Motley Crüe's ongoing feud with Mick Mars, classic MTV Unplugged performances, and why some concerts feel completely authentic while others... maybe don't. Elsewhere, Jonathan Taylor Thomas mysteriously continues aging about one year every decade, Steve Savard lands one of St. Louis television's biggest jobs, Chuck Norris gets honored, Kim Kardashian surprises everyone by actually doing something nice, and Forbes releases the highest-paid podcasts in the world—giving everyone in the studio just enough motivation to keep showing up tomorrow. As always, expect plenty of sarcastic commentary, random tangents, pop culture, celebrity news, weird stories, and the kind of conversations that only happen when nobody tells a morning radio show they're supposed to stay on topic.

Some mornings you wake up expecting a normal daily comedy show. This... was not one of those mornings.

If you've ever wondered what happens when St. Louis collectively loses its mind over bread, a pet kangaroo becomes public enemy number one, and everyone starts planning for an NBA team that doesn't technically exist yet... congratulations, you've found today's episode. On today's daily comedy show, the gang dives headfirst into the internet meltdown surrounding Panera moving its headquarters to Boston. Is this another Rams-level betrayal, or are people simply way too emotionally invested in soup and sandwiches? The debate gets surprisingly passionate, with theories, conspiracy-level outrage, and enough Bread Co. nostalgia to butter an entire bakery. Then things somehow get even stranger. There's a real pet kangaroo named Rufus hopping around Missouri after escaping from his enclosure, launching one of the funniest conversations we've ever had about exotic pets, Australian wildlife, boxing kangaroos, and why absolutely nobody expects to look out their kitchen window and see a four-foot marsupial staring back at them. As if that wasn't enough, the crew gets excited about rumors that St. Louis could someday land an NBA franchise, debates whether the Portland Trail Blazers could become the St. Louis Trail Blazers, imagines new arenas, and immediately starts spending money that doesn't exist. Of course, because this is The Rizzuto Show, we also somehow end up talking about armadillos, leprosy, Anthony Bourdain conspiracy theories, earthquake anxiety, weird Missouri wildlife, celebrity gossip, local news, and enough random detours to make your GPS quit. Expect sarcastic takes, ridiculous hypotheticals, hilarious fails, pop culture commentary, local St. Louis chaos, and the kind of conversations that only happen when six people completely refuse to stay on topic. Whether you're here for funny news, celebrity nonsense, Missouri weirdness, or just need something to laugh at during your commute, this episode delivers exactly the kind of beautiful train wreck you've come to expect. Thanks for making us part of your day. Keep sharing the show, keep telling your friends, and remember: if you see a kangaroo in Missouri...maybe it's actually a kangaroo. One innocent bakery van. One suspicious slogan. One studio full of adults who absolutely refused to let it go. What should have been a simple conversation about Nothing Bundt Cakes rapidly devolves into one of those classic Rizz Show debates where nobody can agree if a marketing slogan is clever, completely innocent, or unintentionally one of the funniest things ever printed on a delivery van. From there...because this is The Rizzuto Show...the conversation somehow shifts into Halloween party planning, costumes nobody should wear, Ballpark Village's Freak Show bash, and why Halloween somehow starts before August even arrives. The crew also dives into major local news as Hollywood River Studios announces plans that could transform the Metro East into a legitimate production hub. Massive sound stages, esports arenas, film tax credits, and the possibility of movies being made just across the river all have the crew imagining what St. Louis could become. Technology also gets roasted when Apple unveils its new hardware leasing program. Is leasing your iPhone actually smart? Is owning anything becoming a thing of the past? The gang debates whether renting phones is the future or just another monthly bill nobody asked for. Then it's time for a packed Crap on Celebrities featuring entertainment headlines involving Jared Leto allegations, Usher's awkward concert moment, Katy Perry's inflatable crowd-surfing fail, new music from Tony Iommi, Peter Gabriel's latest full moon release, Marvel movie rankings, celebrity birthdays, and plenty of sarcastic commentary that somehow makes even serious stories feel like hanging out with your funniest friends. Along the way you'll also hear debates about when kids should start paying their own phone bills, why Terry Crews seems like the nicest guy alive, Bob Hope trivia nobody expected, and enough random tangents to make your morning commute disappear. Some shows ease into the day. We immediately start arguing over Missouri's official state animal, accidentally insult half the Midwest, and somehow end up talking about rabid beavers terrorizing New York. Pretty standard Tuesday around here. The gang discovers that Missouri's official state animal isn't nearly as obvious as anyone thought, learns way more about mule breeding than anyone requested, debates whether a charging beaver should be kicked like "nature's football," and wonders why every state seems to have picked the weirdest possible mascot. Then it's time for one of the greatest disasters in recent memory: Read My Lips. Words like butt crack, flamethrower, cinnamon, armadillo, bidet, mothballs, Sasquatch, cornhole, and fruitcake somehow become Big Rig, Philadelphia, Hope Solo, Powder Keg, and whatever "Quantana Roo" is supposed to be. Nobody can read lips, everyone is somehow overconfident anyway, and the callers suffer right along with us. King Scott proves that facial hair is apparently the ultimate lip-reading defense system. Moon keeps inventing new techniques. Rafe becomes increasingly concerned about everyone's strategy. Lern somehow turns perfectly normal words into complete mysteries. Riz somehow nails "cornhole" while missing words he literally owns. Along the way we also dive into: • Missouri mule history • Rabid beaver attacks • Weird state facts • Listener games • Complete communication breakdowns • More accidental nonsense than should legally fit into one morning show If you enjoy ridiculous conversations that somehow become educational, questionable wildlife discussions, hilarious games, and friends relentlessly roasting each other, you've found your people.

Football's back! At least on The Spread Zone. This week Riz, Tim McKernan and Anthony Stalter dive into the Big 10. Will it be one of the usual suspects raising the conference championship trophy in December, will Indiana repeat, or will it be a sleeping giant taking home the hardware. The guys also break down some favorable schedules that could provide some value in win total futures. Then its onto the NFL, how will the AFC East Shape up this year? Are the Bills a sure thing to reclaim the divison? The Spread Zone is also hunting down value again on the links. Looking to this weekend's Rocket Classic in the Motor City. The crew breaks down their favorites and long shots, including Chris Gotterup and Cam Young, The Spread Zone is presented by @FanDuel Sportsbook!

From camel rides to West Nile mosquitoes, somehow end up roasting Panera's move to Boston, and still find time to debate whether minivans are secretly awesome... congratulations, you've found today's episode. The crew kicks things off with one of the weirdest conversations you'll hear all week after camel videos completely derail the morning. From there it's straight into Missouri mosquito season, West Nile warnings, heat indexes trying to melt highways, and why everyone suddenly feels like checking every birdbath in the neighborhood. Then comes the biggest local story of the day: Panera officially announcing plans to move its headquarters from the St. Louis area to Boston. The gang reacts the only way they know how—with sarcastic conspiracy theories, fake boardroom jargon, Boston jokes, memories of St. Louis Bread Co., questionable bathroom reviews, and plenty of mourning for another hometown company heading east. Somehow the conversation also includes Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, bread bowls, hospital food, and the mysterious career path of CEO Paul Carbone. The chaos doesn't stop there. There's a wild retail theft story where social media becomes the criminals' biggest enemy, stories about detention, paddlings, school punishments that absolutely wouldn't fly today, and enough embarrassing childhood memories to keep therapists employed for years. Later, the crew unexpectedly becomes the biggest supporters of minivans you've ever heard. Sliding doors, cup holders, family road trips, captain's chairs, Toyota Siennas... suddenly everyone's wondering if they judged minivans way too harshly growing up. Of course, no episode would be complete without random tangents about neighborhood cats, weird internet nostalgia, ridiculous listener texts, and the kind of conversations that somehow only happen on The Rizzuto Show. Some people start their morning with coffee. We start ours by arguing about what the word "standby" actually means before immediately spiraling into ancient social media trauma. Seems healthy. This daily comedy show welcomes comedian Bobby Jaycox back into the studio, and from there the rails completely disappear. One minute we're talking about his stand-up shows, the next we're debating whether MySpace deserves another shot at world domination. Would you bring back your Top 8? Would Tom still be your first friend? More importantly... what embarrassing song was automatically blasting from your profile the second someone visited? Naturally, that conversation leads us into the greatest collection of forgotten internet memories imaginable. MySpace profile songs, HTML backgrounds, awkward teenage decisions, and the horrifying realization that some of those old photos may still exist somewhere in the digital universe waiting to ruin careers. As if nostalgia wasn't enough, Lauren somehow gets roped into doing a Chewbacca impression... and then convinces everyone else to try one too. The results are exactly as dignified as you'd expect from grown adults with microphones. Elsewhere in today's chaos... • Bobby shares stories about Nikki Glaser helping promote his comedy shows. • The crew debates whether listening to music should be a solo experience. • Rafe revisits one of the most questionable MySpace profile songs ever selected by a human being. • Moon explains why MySpace worked in the first place—and why bringing it back might be impossible. • Clone conspiracies somehow become a serious topic for several minutes. • Lauren runs through the latest celebrity news, music headlines, TV updates and entertainment gossip during Crap on Celebrities. • Ted Lasso returns. • American Horror Story gets its Avengers-style crossover season. • Eminem auctions off sneakers. • Demi Lovato shuts down clone theories... which naturally only fuels more clone theories around the room. • The gang ranks classic summer songs while simultaneously roasting Kenny Chesney, LFO, Brian Wilson, and basically everyone else. It's another episode where one conversation accidentally creates six more conversations, nobody stays on topic for long, and somehow that's exactly how we like it. Then Mike McKenna from Macadoodles walks into the studio carrying what might be the greatest gift Rafe has ever received: a full-size cardboard cutout of Willie Nelson. Naturally, that leads to conversations about THC drinks, sleep gummies, hemp regulations, getting way too high in Vegas, and why older adults are becoming the biggest fans of Willie Nelson's cannabis beverages. The crew also answers listener emails that somehow become full-blown debates. Is it weird to say hi to the spouses of radio personalities when you see them in public? Does gray hair actually make people more attractive? Should you ever dye it? Why do brothers care if their sister goes gray? The opinions are... surprisingly passionate. Then comes one of the biggest debates of the episode. A listener witnesses someone bringing a dog into a pizza restaurant... then placing the dog ON THE TABLE. The crew is completely split over what's acceptable, what's disgusting, where the line should be, and somehow babies, dirty diapers, dog hair, patios, and pizza all become part of the same conversation. Meanwhile Bobby prepares for his upcoming appearance at the Gathering of the Juggalos, everyone wonders what kind of chaos that comedy show will become, and Rafe volunteers to road trip despite claiming he's only doing it to pay off student loans. It's another completely unfiltered episode filled with ridiculous conversations, listener emails, celebrity randomness, weird news, and exactly the kind of nonsense you've come to expect from The Rizzuto Show.

The countdown to Rizz's birthday bash is officially on, which means the show immediately spirals into conversations about public spanking, 90s rock tribute bands, specialty birthday beer, and why apparently nobody can leave well enough alone. This daily comedy show starts with the crew hyping Rizz's birthday celebration at Delmar Hall before somehow landing on whether a dominatrix should be involved. (We wish we were kidding.) Then Mike McKenna from Macadoodles walks into the studio carrying what might be the greatest gift Rafe has ever received: a full-size cardboard cutout of Willie Nelson. Naturally, that leads to conversations about THC drinks, sleep gummies, hemp regulations, getting way too high in Vegas, and why older adults are becoming the biggest fans of Willie Nelson's cannabis beverages. The crew also answers listener emails that somehow become full-blown debates. Is it weird to say hi to the spouses of radio personalities when you see them in public? Does gray hair actually make people more attractive? Should you ever dye it? Why do brothers care if their sister goes gray? The opinions are... surprisingly passionate. Then comes one of the biggest debates of the episode. A listener witnesses someone bringing a dog into a pizza restaurant... then placing the dog ON THE TABLE. The crew is completely split over what's acceptable, what's disgusting, where the line should be, and somehow babies, dirty diapers, dog hair, patios, and pizza all become part of the same conversation.

Whether you're here for hilarious debates, funny stories, celebrity chaos, or just need your daily dose of sarcasm before work, this daily comedy show delivers another episode that somehow makes perfect sense while making absolutely none.

Some people start their morning with coffee. We start ours by arguing about what the word "standby" actually means before immediately spiraling into ancient social media trauma. Seems healthy. This daily comedy show welcomes comedian Bobby Jaycox back into the studio, and from there the rails completely disappear. One minute we're talking about his stand-up shows, the next we're debating whether MySpace deserves another shot at world domination. Would you bring back your Top 8? Would Tom still be your first friend? More importantly... what embarrassing song was automatically blasting from your profile the second someone visited? Naturally, that conversation leads us into the greatest collection of forgotten internet memories imaginable. MySpace profile songs, HTML backgrounds, awkward teenage decisions, and the horrifying realization that some of those old photos may still exist somewhere in the digital universe waiting to ruin careers. As if nostalgia wasn't enough, Lauren somehow gets roped into doing a Chewbacca impression... and then convinces everyone else to try one too. The results are exactly as dignified as you'd expect from grown adults with microphones. Elsewhere in today's chaos... • Bobby shares stories about Nikki Glaser helping promote his comedy shows. • The crew debates whether listening to music should be a solo experience. • Rafe revisits one of the most questionable MySpace profile songs ever selected by a human being. • Moon explains why MySpace worked in the first place—and why bringing it back might be impossible. • Clone conspiracies somehow become a serious topic for several minutes. • Lauren runs through the latest celebrity news, music headlines, TV updates and entertainment gossip during Crap on Celebrities. • Ted Lasso returns. • American Horror Story gets its Avengers-style crossover season. • Eminem auctions off sneakers. • Demi Lovato shuts down clone theories... which naturally only fuels more clone theories around the room. • The gang ranks classic summer songs while simultaneously roasting Kenny Chesney, LFO, Brian Wilson, and basically everyone else. It's another episode where one conversation accidentally creates six more conversations, nobody stays on topic for long, and somehow that's exactly how we like it. Whether you're here for comedy, weird news, pop culture commentary, celebrity gossip, or simply listening to adults argue over extinct social media platforms, you've found your people. Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your day and hanging out with us for another ridiculous ride. This daily comedy show exists because of listeners like you who continue to embrace the nonsense right alongside us.

If you've ever wondered how a daily comedy show can go from camel rides to West Nile mosquitoes, somehow end up roasting Panera's move to Boston, and still find time to debate whether minivans are secretly awesome... congratulations, you've found today's episode. The crew kicks things off with one of the weirdest conversations you'll hear all week after camel videos completely derail the morning. From there it's straight into Missouri mosquito season, West Nile warnings, heat indexes trying to melt highways, and why everyone suddenly feels like checking every birdbath in the neighborhood. Then comes the biggest local story of the day: Panera officially announcing plans to move its headquarters from the St. Louis area to Boston. The gang reacts the only way they know how—with sarcastic conspiracy theories, fake boardroom jargon, Boston jokes, memories of St. Louis Bread Co., questionable bathroom reviews, and plenty of mourning for another hometown company heading east. Somehow the conversation also includes Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, bread bowls, hospital food, and the mysterious career path of CEO Paul Carbone. The chaos doesn't stop there. There's a wild retail theft story where social media becomes the criminals' biggest enemy, stories about detention, paddlings, school punishments that absolutely wouldn't fly today, and enough embarrassing childhood memories to keep therapists employed for years. Later, the crew unexpectedly becomes the biggest supporters of minivans you've ever heard. Sliding doors, cup holders, family road trips, captain's chairs, Toyota Siennas... suddenly everyone's wondering if they judged minivans way too harshly growing up. Of course, no episode would be complete without random tangents about neighborhood cats, weird internet nostalgia, ridiculous listener texts, and the kind of conversations that somehow only happen on The Rizzuto Show. Whether you're here for local St. Louis news, celebrity-style banter, ridiculous arguments, or just looking for a daily comedy show that feels like hanging out with your funniest friends before work, Episode #301 delivers another perfectly unhinged morning. Listen, laugh, argue about Panera bathrooms, and decide for yourself whether camel noises belong on the radio.

Nothing says "good morning" quite like realizing one of your coworkers completely disappeared. This episode of The Rizzuto Show starts with full-on panic when King Scott doesn't show up for work. Is he okay? Did the baby arrive? Is there an emergency? Nope...he just slept through everything. Naturally, this earns him the legendary Clock of Shame and enough roasting to last until the baby's old enough to drive. From there, the chaos only gets better. The crew uncovers a little-known towing loophole that could save you hundreds of dollars if you ever catch your vehicle being hauled away. Is it legitimate? Is it shady? Is bribing a tow truck driver with a burrito technically negotiating? Important questions are asked. Then things get somehow even more ridiculous. A seasoned mountain climber accidentally impales himself with his own hiking pole...and calmly hikes TEN MILES back down the mountain with it still sticking through his body. Somehow that's still not the craziest survival story of the day. A solo sailor spends an entire month drifting across the Pacific after losing his mast, running out of water, and improvising his own survival system while waiting for someone—anyone—to notice him. Meanwhile, TikTok has apparently decided diarrhea is now a weight-loss strategy. Yes, really. The crew discusses the unbelievably stupid "Cyclospora Skinny" trend, contaminated lettuce, food recalls, and why intentionally giving yourself explosive diarrhea may not be the wellness breakthrough influencers think it is. If medical malpractice stories make you cringe...brace yourself. A woman goes in for a routine procedure and somehow wakes up missing the wrong organ entirely. The crew debates how much compensation is actually enough when a doctor's mistake permanently changes your life. Along the way there are conversations about: • hilarious late-to-work disasters • bizarre downtown vandalism • towing scams • rental car nightmares • hiking fails • ocean survival • bad diet trends • weird medical news • and the everyday nonsense that somehow turns into a three-hour comedy therapy session. King Scott kicks things off by earning the legendary Clock of Shame after an alarm clock betrayal (or operator error...depending on who you believe). From there, the chaos only escalates. A New Zealand metal concert turns into one of the most horrifying concert stories imaginable after a mosh pit gets interrupted by an unexpected biological disaster. The gang debates whether anyone could actually miss that smell, why everyone immediately started throwing up, and why this somehow isn't even the first time it's happened at a heavy music show. The crew battles through Jeopardy music trivia, debates classic albums, laughs about DevilSkin vs. Devil's Kin, and somehow turns human biology into comedy. In Crap on Celebrities, there's plenty happening: • Carly Simon reveals her Parkinson's diagnosis. • Brett Michaels recovers from surgery while fans wonder about upcoming tour dates. • Larry the Cable Guy undergoes emergency surgery. • Christopher Nolan explains why he'll never direct a romantic comedy. • Kevin Smith announces a Jay & Silent Bob video game. • Rob Zombie's wife releases her debut single. • Tom Cruise family drama gets another chapter. • Jon Stewart and Pete Davidson reunite for a huge comedy benefit. • Plus celebrity birthdays, weird entertainment news, and all the sarcastic commentary you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show. The gang debates America's best fast food restaurants, questions why Del Taco somehow keeps winning national rankings, argues over Taco Bell's drive-thru speed, wonders why Chick-fil-A can be both the friendliest and the slowest, and absolutely unloads on some of the worst drive-thru experiences imaginable. There are passionate opinions about fries, chicken, Crunchwrap Supremes, Popeyes, Zaxby's, Raising Cane's, and just about every chain capable of serving questionable life decisions in under seven minutes. As if that wasn't enough chaos, the crew dives into a nostalgic rabbit hole of foods only your grandparents seem to enjoy. Liver and onions. Sardines. Bologna. Tapioca pudding. Fruitcake. Jell-O molds. Black licorice. Somehow everyone ends up questioning their own taste buds while Scott proudly brings in licorice like it's a treasured family heirloom. And then...Headline Hoosh arrives. This week's winner is a man who decided hopping onto a moving freight train wasn't exciting enough, so he climbed onto the locomotive completely naked and surfed it across Colorado before police finally stopped the train. His explanation? Vodka, cheap beer, and banjo playing. Honestly...we've heard worse resumes.

Some mornings you wake up expecting a normal daily comedy show. This wasn't one of them. Episode 158 kicks off with a excitement surrounding Rizz's birthday bash at Delmar Hall and Pin-Up Bowl before the crew dives headfirst into bowling, live music, cake, and just enough peer pressure to make sure everybody actually shows up. If you don't...well...Rizz says he'll remember. From there, the show somehow turns into a full-blown investigation into St. Louis restaurants expanding too fast, why barbecue is harder than people think, and whether quality always suffers when your favorite local spot opens too many locations. It's part restaurant review, part therapy session for disappointed brisket lovers. Then things get wonderfully ridiculous. The gang debates America's best fast food restaurants, questions why Del Taco somehow keeps winning national rankings, argues over Taco Bell's drive-thru speed, wonders why Chick-fil-A can be both the friendliest and the slowest, and absolutely unloads on some of the worst drive-thru experiences imaginable.

His explanation? Vodka, cheap beer, and banjo playing. Honestly...we've heard worse resumes. As always, the conversations go completely off the rails, the insults are delivered with love, and somehow every ridiculous tangent becomes funnier than the last. If you're looking for celebrity gossip mixed with weird news, fast food debates, questionable life choices, and the kind of conversations that only happen on a daily comedy show, you've found your people.

Some mornings everything goes according to plan. This is absolutely not one of those mornings. King Scott kicks things off by earning the legendary Clock of Shame after an alarm clock betrayal (or operator error...depending on who you believe). From there, the chaos only escalates. The crew talks about the growing national blood shortage, why knowing your blood type actually matters, and how one simple donation can literally save lives before immediately steering the conversation straight into complete nonsense...because that's what a comedy podcast is supposed to do. Then comes the story nobody asked for but everyone will remember forever. A New Zealand metal concert turns into one of the most horrifying concert stories imaginable after a mosh pit gets interrupted by an unexpected biological disaster. The gang debates whether anyone could actually miss that smell, why everyone immediately started throwing up, and why this somehow isn't even the first time it's happened at a heavy music show. Yes... It's every bit as disgusting as it sounds. Meanwhile... The crew battles through Jeopardy music trivia, debates classic albums, laughs about DevilSkin vs. Devil's Kin, and somehow turns human biology into comedy. In Crap on Celebrities, there's plenty happening: • Carly Simon reveals her Parkinson's diagnosis. • Brett Michaels recovers from surgery while fans wonder about upcoming tour dates. • Larry the Cable Guy undergoes emergency surgery. • Christopher Nolan explains why he'll never direct a romantic comedy. • Kevin Smith announces a Jay & Silent Bob video game. • Rob Zombie's wife releases her debut single. • Tom Cruise family drama gets another chapter. • Jon Stewart and Pete Davidson reunite for a huge comedy benefit. • Plus celebrity birthdays, weird entertainment news, and all the sarcastic commentary you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show. It's another morning where serious conversations somehow collide with absolute nonsense—and somehow it all makes perfect sense. If you're looking for a comedy podcast packed with ridiculous stories, pop culture commentary, questionable life advice, St. Louis humor, and enough laughs to make your coworkers question what you're listening to, you've found today's episode. Because only The Rizzuto Show can go from saving lives with blood donations...to discussing poop in a mosh pit...without missing a beat.

The gang returns with stories that somehow spiral from Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey into insurance nightmares, coffee raves, racquetball glory, international travel panic, and enough questionable decisions to fill an entire daily podcast. Rizz finally delivers his long-awaited review of The Odyssey, and somehow the movie itself isn't even the weirdest part of the story. Between a theater neighbor who falls asleep almost immediately, another guy choking on popcorn halfway through, thirty minutes of previews that nobody remembers, and the debate over whether Tom Holland belongs anywhere near ancient Greece, the review quickly becomes its own adventure. Meanwhile, weekend plans take a serious turn when a family emergency forces international travel plans to change at the last minute. What should have been a trip to Paris becomes a crash course in travel insurance, refund headaches, rental cars in Ireland, driving on the wrong side of the road, and why nobody actually enjoys calling customer service. Lern attempts to enjoy a trendy coffee rave before discovering that mixing caffeine, heat, and questionable health decisions may not be the best combination. A cute photo booth, mocktails, and dinner plans quickly give way to a racing heart, an emergency exit from date night, and one unforgettable restaurant bathroom experience. Elsewhere, Rafe and Scott accidentally become local sports heroes after a racquetball match attracts an audience of elementary school kids who immediately begin cheering, booing, and turning two middle-aged men into reluctant professional athletes. Turns out cardio is a lot easier when strangers are judging your every swing. The gang talks about Missouri becoming the filming home for the upcoming Smoking the Bandit prequel series and wonders which cast member has the best chance of sneaking into the production. Then it's time for celebrity gossip, Comic-Con announcements, Green Day surprises, Ryan Gosling officially becoming Ghost Rider, Rick Moranis making his long-awaited return to Spaceballs, and Ryan Reynolds finding new ways to troll absolutely everyone. David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar somehow become the center of another classic rock debate, complete with cocktail analysis, tour cancellations, residency talk, and the eternal question: is extending an olive branch still an olive branch if you're holding a martini? The crew also breaks down Tom Holland's unforgettable Hot Ones appearance, Usher's awkward on-stage rejection, Chris Brown controversy, movie leaks, Marvel news, and enough pop culture commentary to keep your group chat busy all week. Of course, no episode would be complete without Crap on Celebrities, birthday nonsense, ridiculous observations, sarcastic debates, and the kind of off-the-rails conversations that somehow make perfect sense before 10 AM. It's National Chicken Finger Day. The crew dives headfirst into one of the wildest Florida stories we've seen in a long time after a sugar daddy arrangement completely unravels. A first date involving shopping, dinner, foot massages, and a misunderstanding over expectations turns into a police chase, felony charges, and one extremely angry retiree from The Villages. Naturally, the gang spends way too much time trying to understand the mysterious rules of sugar daddy culture, wondering where the boundaries actually exist and how anyone thinks these arrangements are ever going to stay uncomplicated. Along the way there's plenty of classic Rizz Show nonsense. Chicken fingers get the appreciation they deserve. Bagpipes spark an international debate. Houseplants apparently need fresh air now. Florida continues doing Florida things. The crew even detours into celebrity wedding history and why courthouse weddings are becoming cooler than giant expensive ceremonies.

Some mornings you wake up expecting to celebrate National Chicken Finger Day. Other mornings you somehow spend twenty minutes debating whether bagpipes are a gift to humanity or an instrument specifically designed to irritate Italians. That's how this episode starts... and somehow it only gets stranger. The crew dives headfirst into one of the wildest Florida stories we've seen in a long time after a sugar daddy arrangement completely unravels. A first date involving shopping, dinner, foot massages, and a misunderstanding over expectations turns into a police chase, felony charges, and one extremely angry retiree from The Villages. Naturally, the gang spends way too much time trying to understand the mysterious rules of sugar daddy culture, wondering where the boundaries actually exist and how anyone thinks these arrangements are ever going to stay uncomplicated. Along the way there's plenty of classic Rizz Show nonsense. Chicken fingers get the appreciation they deserve. Bagpipes spark an international debate. Houseplants apparently need fresh air now. Florida continues doing Florida things. The crew even detours into celebrity wedding history and why courthouse weddings are becoming cooler than giant expensive ceremonies. Then the show unexpectedly shifts into one of its most honest conversations in recent memory. A listener shares the heartbreaking story of discovering her husband had been living a double life and wonders if she's simply afraid of starting over in her forties. What follows is funny, brutally honest, supportive, and surprisingly heartfelt. Rafe opens up about his own recent experiences with being single again, Moon delivers a relationship analogy involving a chainsaw that somehow makes perfect sense, and everyone agrees that sometimes the hardest decisions are also the healthiest ones. It's that perfect mix that makes this comedy podcast what it is. One minute you're laughing about chicken fingers and bagpipes. The next you're hearing honest conversations about relationships, moving forward, and finding happiness after life throws a curveball. Then someone immediately ruins the emotional moment with jokes about dating someone's mom. If you're looking for a comedy podcast packed with weird news, hilarious conversations, Florida headlines, celebrity stories, relationship advice, sarcastic humor, and the kind of daily chaos only The Rizzuto Show can deliver, you've found today's episode.

Sometimes the internet gives us a story so unbelievably disgusting that it hijacks an entire morning. This episode begins with one of those moments after a viral video shows a cruise passenger scraping fungus off her foot with a buffet fork... while other people are trying to eat. Naturally, the crew debates hygiene, cruise ships, humanity, and whether Earth deserves another season. From there the chaos keeps rolling. The gang talks about Missouri becoming the filming home for the upcoming Smoking the Bandit prequel series and wonders which cast member has the best chance of sneaking into the production. Then it's time for celebrity gossip, Comic-Con announcements, Green Day surprises, Ryan Gosling officially becoming Ghost Rider, Rick Moranis making his long-awaited return to Spaceballs, and Ryan Reynolds finding new ways to troll absolutely everyone.

Grab your coffee. Maybe skip breakfast during the fungus conversation. And definitely leave the buffet forks where they belong.

Some weekends are relaxing. This was... not one of those weekends. The gang returns with stories that somehow spiral from Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey into insurance nightmares, coffee raves, racquetball glory, international travel panic, and enough questionable decisions to fill an entire daily podcast. Rizz finally delivers his long-awaited review of The Odyssey, and somehow the movie itself isn't even the weirdest part of the story.

Turns out cardio is a lot easier when strangers are judging your every swing. There's also birthday celebrations, Irish accents, sandwich recommendations, college visits ruined by the word "Hoosier," restaurant discoveries, scorching summer heat, movie theater etiquette, and the usual collection of sarcastic observations that somehow make complete sense inside the Rizz Show universe. If your weekend felt chaotic, congratulations—you were probably still more organized than this one. Whether you're here for funny stories, movie debates, travel disasters, weird news, or just want to hear a group of friends roast each other for two-plus hours, you've found your new favorite daily podcast. Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your routine.

What do a dangling uterus earring, Fireball sneakers, Jimothy the raccoon, Big Ed comparisons, kidney stones, Kool-Aid conspiracies, and Grimace's imaginary tool belt all have in common? Absolutely nothing... which is exactly why this collection of episodes feels like peak Rizz Show chaos. The gang somehow manages to turn a week of random headlines into comedy gold, starting with Riz's unforgettable week wearing a uterus dangler for charity. That spirals into an over-the-top "In Memoriam" featuring heartfelt (and completely fake) tributes to the Kool-Aid Man, Lake of the Ozarks, Riz's immune system, and the internet's newest four-legged fashion icon, Jimothy the raccoon. Somewhere in there, Bags Against the Machine gets ready to melt faces, and everyone learns that once something becomes a running joke on this show, it's probably never going away. Then it's on to some of the strangest news stories you'll hear all week. Fireball decides sneakers should double as whiskey flasks, Olive Garden pasta dreams are crushed, Motley Crüe somehow survives another unbelievable story from the '80s, Bret Michaels battles kidney stones, and the crew debates whether taking shots out of your shoes is somehow worse than sneaking booze in every other imaginable place. As always, the celebrity gossip takes a hard left into absurd territory before anyone has a chance to act like responsible adults. And because the universe apparently wasn't weird enough already, Riz experiments with a ponytail, immediately gets roasted by the internet, and discovers that reading comment sections is still one of humanity's worst ideas. Long hair, man buns, Big Ed comparisons, family pool disasters, forgotten garden hoses, and enough self-inflicted embarrassment to last a lifetime all become fair game as the crew relentlessly piles on each other the way only lifelong friends can. You'll also get plenty of music talk, pop culture commentary, ridiculous impressions, fake documentaries, strange animal obsessions, celebrity updates, weird news, and the kind of off-the-rails conversations that somehow make perfect sense when you're listening live. Whether they're breaking down bizarre internet trends, roasting each other's life choices, or creating elaborate backstories for mascots that absolutely did not need tragic origin stories, the laughs never stay in one lane for very long. If you love a daily comedy show that bounces between hilarious fails, entertainment gossip, celebrity news, weird internet stories, and completely unnecessary deep dives into topics nobody asked for, you've found your people. This daily comedy show is packed with sarcastic humor, funny stories, St. Louis attitude, and the chemistry that's made The Rizzuto Show a favorite for fans of comedy podcasts and morning radio alike. From pop culture commentary to fail stories and everything in between, this daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of beautiful nonsense you've come to expect. So buckle up, ignore your better judgment, and enjoy three episodes stitched together into one glorious collection of organized chaos. Whether you're here for Jimothy Summer, the fake memorials, celebrity gossip, bizarre inventions, internet nonsense, or simply to hear friends make each other laugh until someone can't breathe, thanks for hanging out with The Rizzuto Show.

Some episodes are impossible to explain to someone who has never heard The Rizzuto Show. This is definitely one of those. The gang kicks things off celebrating birthdays and Bags Against the Machine before diving headfirst into another legendary edition of the E-Memorials. First up, Riz officially says goodbye to the now-famous uterus "dangler" that he proudly wore for charity all week, and the crew imagines the life-changing emotional growth that came with wearing it. Apparently throw pillows, Pinterest boards, and understanding feelings are all side effects nobody warned him about. Then things somehow get even stranger. The crew unveils a completely fictional—but suspiciously convincing—documentary chronicling the tragic downfall of the Kool-Aid Man. Between orthopedic injuries from smashing through walls, devastating lawsuits, losing custody of Sharkleberry Finn, and eventually contracting the terminal illness known only as "Kool-Aids," it's one of the dumbest things we've ever committed to... which also makes it one of our favorites. Meanwhile, Riz's weekend at Lake of the Ozarks becomes the target of an all-out roast as his immune system is honored in memoriam after surviving questionable water, inflatable tubing, and enough bacteria to qualify as a biological experiment. And then there's Jimothy. The internet-famous raccoon with short spine syndrome officially becomes the hottest fashion icon of the summer as the crew imagines luxury fashion houses redesigning entire collections around his unique look. Somehow Balenciaga, Vogue, and woodland couture all collide into one ridiculous segment that proves absolutely nothing is safe once The Rizzuto Show gets hold of it. You'll also hear celebrity news, real memorials, pop culture commentary, weird internet rabbit holes, and the kind of sarcastic conversations that somehow only make sense after you've listened for a while. Whether you've been listening for years or you're discovering us for the first time, this daily comedy episode is packed with the ridiculous chemistry, quick improvisation, and nonstop laughs that have made The Rizzuto Show a favorite for comedy fans. If you enjoy a daily comedy podcast that treats every bizarre headline like an opportunity to create an entire cinematic universe, you've found your people. Thanks for hanging out with us. We appreciate every download, every share, every laugh, and every person willing to explain to friends why they're listening to a serious documentary about the Kool-Aid Man. We'll keep bringing the weird. Because that's what daily comedy should be. Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

If your idea of a productive morning includes hiding whiskey in your shoes, arguing with Oprah, and learning more about kidney stones than any human ever wanted to know, congratulations—you've found today's daily comedy show. The gang kicks things off by reacting to Fireball's newest invention: high-top sneakers with hidden compartments designed to smuggle booze into concerts. Is it brilliant? Is it incredibly stupid? Can both be true? Absolutely. The conversation quickly spirals into stories about sneaking drinks into venues, golf-course bathroom etiquette, and why "shoe whiskey" should never become part of the English language. Then things take an unexpectedly painful turn as Bret Michaels undergoes emergency kidney stone surgery, which leads Moon to share some of the most unforgettable—and honestly horrifying—kidney stone stories ever told on this show. Hospital visits, tour disasters, screaming in public bathrooms... somehow everyone survives, but barely. Celebrity news brings plenty of chaos, too. Tommy Lee reveals one of Motley Crue's most unbelievable drug stories, Bon Jovi struggles through a concert after vocal issues, Korn's Jonathan Davis gets married, Johnny Depp surprises Comic-Con fans, and Jason Alexander makes headlines by apologizing for a decades-old comedy sketch. The crew also debates whether Johnny Depp will always be Captain Jack Sparrow, Edward Scissorhands, or something completely different depending on who you ask. Then Oprah enters the conversation with a comment that lights the fuse on one of the episode's biggest discussions. Should young people sacrifice everything to build a career, or should work-life balance begin immediately? Everyone has an opinion, nobody completely agrees, and somehow the debate turns into one of the most thoughtful conversations of the morning without losing the sarcasm that keeps everything fun. Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without plenty of side quests. There are discussions about Olive Garden Pasta Pass failures, Hollywood Walk of Fame stars, celebrity birthdays, awkward David Letterman moments, the Kardashians, concert ticket disasters, and enough random tangents to make your GPS give up entirely. Whether you're here for celebrity gossip, weird news, hilarious fails, pop culture commentary, or simply because you enjoy hearing a group of friends derail every conversation imaginable, today's daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of organized chaos you've come to expect. Thanks for making us part of your day. If you laughed, learned something completely unnecessary, or now have an irrational fear of kidney stones, we'd call that a successful episode.

Friday means landing the plane, but not before setting the cockpit on fire. On today's episode, the gang starts with weather talk like every respectable group of Midwestern dads before immediately spiraling into forgotten pool hoses, accidental water bills, and whether rain can actually improve your Friday. Moon almost floods the backyard, Mama Moon is back in the pool, and somehow the conversation only gets weirder from there. Then Riz makes the mistake we've all made—reading the comments. A simple ponytail somehow transforms him into Steven Seagal... then someone compares him to Big Ed from 90 Day Fiancé, and suddenly years of confidence disappear faster than free donuts in the break room. The crew debates whether internet trolls should ever win, whether Woody's opinion somehow matters more than thousands of listeners, and whether North Korea actually has better hairstyle options than Riz's barber. As if that isn't enough chaos, a terrifying parasite story sends everyone into an extended discussion about the absolute worst places to discover explosive digestive problems. Yellowstone. Airplanes. Funerals. Float tanks with anti-fart contracts. Nothing is safe, and somehow everyone contributes a nightmare scenario that makes the previous one sound pleasant. The travel conversation gets even better when Riz prepares for Europe and asks the age-old question: what's harder—vacationing with toddlers or grandparents? The answers involve Paris, catacombs, bad knees, paper-thin skin, confusing public transportation, and enough family travel anxiety to make you want to stay home forever. Later, the crew realizes they're officially becoming old people. Random grunts while standing up. Talking to themselves in grocery stores. Becoming obsessed with neighbors' lawns. Weather-predicting knees. And perhaps the most disturbing revelation of all… yes, "old person smell" is apparently real, and once the science gets involved, nobody leaves the conversation feeling younger. There's also celebrity rabbit holes, Rick Springfield somehow refusing to age, Def Leppard debates, bizarre internet searches, listener roasts, travel disasters, body noises, and the kind of completely unnecessary conversations that somehow become the funniest parts of the morning. It's exactly the unpredictable mess you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show—friends making each other laugh, roasting themselves before the internet gets the chance, and somehow turning everyday stories into absolute nonsense. If you came for organized radio, you're in the wrong place. If you came for sarcastic conversations, ridiculous stories, and a daily comedy show that proudly derails itself every few minutes, welcome home. Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your routine. Whether you're commuting, pretending to work, hiding from your responsibilities, or simply looking for a daily comedy show that embraces complete chaos, we're glad you're here.

It all starts innocently enough with a studio full of ponytails and a heated debate over whether the infamous 90s "butt cut" haircut deserves its comeback. Naturally, that conversation somehow turns into Jonathan Brandis nostalgia, Steven Seagal jokes, old-school Blockbuster memories, and the unmistakable smell of renting VHS tapes on a Friday night. From there, the crew dives headfirst into today's weirdest headlines. They react to shocking wildfire stories overseas, discuss why nostalgia keeps pulling everyone back toward analog experiences, and break down one of the internet's biggest viral hiking rescues after a woman had to be airlifted from Yosemite. The conversation becomes equal parts funny, sympathetic, and completely derailed—as only this crew can manage. Then comes the travel story nobody was emotionally prepared for. Let's just say a beach rope swing, a vacation in Honduras, and one incredibly unfortunate landing create what may be one of the most unbelievable medical stories the show has covered in a long time. If you've already heard people mention "the grapefruit story," yes... this is that episode. Along the way you'll also get movie talk, Christopher Nolan hype, Odyssey ticket frustrations, classic movie nostalgia, sarcastic observations about adulthood, and the kind of random conversations that somehow only make sense when the Rizz Show is having them. A debate over why Trader Joe's chocolate bread somehow smells exactly like chicken fingers while someone cracks open a Celsius and declares they're about to get "lit." From there, the rails disappear completely. The crew tackles one of humanity's most important questions: if civilization collapses tomorrow, who are you bringing with you? A combat medic? Engineer? Farmer? Navy SEAL? Jason Statham because apparently he's every profession? Or maybe just Monica Bellucci because if the world's ending, why not shoot your shot? Before long they're debating swimming zombies, Walking Dead logic, World War Z speed rankings, kayaks, Mississippi escape routes, island survival, and whether doctors or mechanics are the true MVPs of the apocalypse. Tom Jones' family drama sparks a genuine discussion about fathers and responsibility before everyone gets distracted trying to determine what people actually call Tom Jones' famously enormous... reputation. Jimmy Buffett fans get some good news, Quiet Riot looks for a singer, ZZ Top reshuffles tour dates, and the crew debates whether fans are owed the original lead singer at every concert. A celebration of friendship, softball, community, and the legacy of our friend Jeff Burton. Jeff loved two things more than almost anything: his family and playing softball. Okay... maybe softball was tied for first. The guy practically lived at shortstop, and missing a game wasn't really in his vocabulary. After battling Crohn's disease and later cancer, Jeff's passion for helping others became just as legendary as his love of turning double plays. Now his family keeps that legacy alive with the annual 100 Innings Challenge, raising money for Siteman Cancer Center while giving everyone an excuse to spend an entire day playing softball, laughing with friends, eating great food, and yes... enjoying a little free beer along the way.

The Rizzuto Show welcomes the Burton family into the studio for one of our favorite conversations of the year—a celebration of friendship, softball, community, and the legacy of our friend Jeff Burton. Jeff loved two things more than almost anything: his family and playing softball. Okay... maybe softball was tied for first. The guy practically lived at shortstop, and missing a game wasn't really in his vocabulary. After battling Crohn's disease and later cancer, Jeff's passion for helping others became just as legendary as his love of turning double plays. Now his family keeps that legacy alive with the annual 100 Innings Challenge, raising money for Siteman Cancer Center while giving everyone an excuse to spend an entire day playing softball, laughing with friends, eating great food, and yes... enjoying a little free beer along the way. This daily comedy show somehow manages to bounce between heartfelt stories and complete nonsense in record time. We learn how the event works, why anyone can play—even if your softball skills belong on the playground bench—and why Team Rizz will once again embarrass itself in public for a good cause. Melanie explains how solo players get matched onto teams, why the games move surprisingly fast, and how the Burton family somehow survives playing nearly half the innings themselves. Julie shares how the event began, the incredible support from the softball community, and why this year's move to Fenton helps honor Jeff's father and the Burton family's softball roots. Naturally, the conversation quickly derails into fake mustaches for underage beer drinkers, firefighters beating police officers, questionable coaching decisions from Rafe and Riz, dunk tanks, hepatitis jokes, and the realization that nobody listens to our coaching anyway. Whether you're planning to lace up your cleats or just show up to support an incredible cause, this episode reminds everyone that community events don't have to be boring—they can be hilarious, meaningful, and maybe just a little chaotic. It's another daily comedy show episode that perfectly captures why The Rizzuto Show has always been about more than just laughs. Sometimes it's about showing up for friends, keeping traditions alive, and helping make a difference while making fun of ourselves every step of the way. If you're anywhere near St. Louis on August 22, grab your team—or don't, because they'll find one for you—and come celebrate Jeff the way he'd want: with softball, laughter, cold drinks, and one ridiculously long day on the diamond. Thanks for listening to another daily comedy show from the crew that somehow turns charity softball into comedy gold.

The only thing more dangerous than a zombie apocalypse might be putting this group in charge of surviving one. Episode 143 begins exactly the way you'd expect absolutely nothing to begin—with a debate over why Trader Joe's chocolate bread somehow smells exactly like chicken fingers while someone cracks open a Celsius and declares they're about to get "lit." From there, the rails disappear completely. The crew tackles one of humanity's most important questions: if civilization collapses tomorrow, who are you bringing with you? A combat medic? Engineer? Farmer? Navy SEAL? Jason Statham because apparently he's every profession? Or maybe just Monica Bellucci because if the world's ending, why not shoot your shot? Before long they're debating swimming zombies, Walking Dead logic, World War Z speed rankings, kayaks, Mississippi escape routes, island survival, and whether doctors or mechanics are the true MVPs of the apocalypse. As if that wasn't enough, Rafe finally settles a legendary $1,000 wager, Rizz starts planning his Paris adventure (which quickly becomes everyone convincing him to visit Jim Morrison's grave before literally anything else), and the gang dives into celebrity headlines that bounce from surprisingly emotional to wonderfully ridiculous. Tom Jones' family drama sparks a genuine discussion about fathers and responsibility before everyone gets distracted trying to determine what people actually call Tom Jones' famously enormous... reputation. Jimmy Buffett fans get some good news, Quiet Riot looks for a singer, ZZ Top reshuffles tour dates, and the crew debates whether fans are owed the original lead singer at every concert. Movie talk includes Tom Cruise returning for another lap in Days of Thunder, Glenn Powell stepping into the role of Lou Gehrig, Tom Holland preparing to become Fred Astaire, and a healthy amount of praise for great racing movies, Frankenstein reboots, and anything that gives Moon an excuse to recommend another film. The episode wraps with an all-out Guns N' Roses debate where Billboard's rankings get roasted harder than the listeners, proving once again that no music list survives five minutes around this crew. If you love daily comedy, ridiculous hypotheticals, celebrity news, pop culture arguments, hilarious tangents, and the kind of conversations that somehow begin with breakfast food and end with zombie survival plans, you've found exactly what you were looking for. This daily comedy episode delivers the perfect mix of weird news, sarcastic humor, entertainment gossip, and the lovable chaos that makes The Rizzuto Show one of the funniest morning shows anywhere. Whether you're listening during your commute, pretending to work, or actually preparing for the zombie apocalypse (we don't judge), thanks for hanging out with us.

There are days when The Rizzuto Show has a plan... and then there are episodes like this one. It all starts innocently enough with a studio full of ponytails and a heated debate over whether the infamous 90s "butt cut" haircut deserves its comeback. Naturally, that conversation somehow turns into Jonathan Brandis nostalgia, Steven Seagal jokes, old-school Blockbuster memories, and the unmistakable smell of renting VHS tapes on a Friday night.

The Rizzuto Show continues to deliver everything listeners love: comedy, entertainment, celebrity talk, bizarre internet stories, nostalgic rabbit holes, and plenty of moments that make you wonder how the conversation got here in the first place.

Today’s episode combines three separate journeys into the strange, confusing, and occasionally lubricated corners of modern life—which is another way of saying nobody stopped us from turning on the microphones. First, the show investigates a mime whose behavior allegedly escalated from silently unsettling to stripping down, covering himself in cooking oil, and working out in a public park. Finally, a fitness routine for people who think normal gyms contain entirely too much talking. The crew debates whether mimes belong to the clown family, why painted faces activate the human fight-or-flight response, and whether a silent man glistening in canola oil is somehow more or less threatening than a regular mime. This is the kind of responsible public discussion you expect from a comedy podcast with access to microphones and absolutely no mime-control legislation. Then we enter the Hydration Industrial Complex. Every few years, society apparently selects a new water bottle and collectively decides it is no longer a container—it is a lifestyle, a personality, and possibly a dependent. Stanley, Hydro Flask, Yeti, Owala, CamelBak and the rest of the reusable plastic museum all get examined while the crew admits their cabinets are basically archaeological sites filled with abandoned drinkware. We also learn that some bottles may be washed only through sacred hand-cleaning rituals, while others were free promotional items that now hold pens because even hydration has winners and losers. The chaos continues with a round of music Jeopardy that immediately proves knowing a song and understanding the rules of Jeopardy are two completely different qualifications. There are arguments over buzzing in, demanding answers in the form of a question, and whether anyone involved should ever be trusted to host a nationally syndicated game show. Match Up with Moon delivers even more academic excellence as the crew attempts to identify the “stinking rose,” explain what MBA stands for, and survive trivia questions clearly designed by someone with a personal grudge. From there, we travel to Ellisville, where a resurfaced social media trend has teenagers crashing through vinyl fences while yelling like the Kool-Aid Man. Because apparently the newest generation looked at expensive property damage and thought, “This could use branding.” The crew explores the Kool-Aid challenge, the surprisingly inflation-resistant price of Kool-Aid packets, the many voices behind the famous pitcher, and whether suburban homeowners should begin painting designated impact zones on their fences. There’s also Halloween planning, questionable zombie game-show-host costumes, haircut anxiety, celebrity chaos, nostalgia, strange history, and enough pop culture commentary to make this daily comedy feel like scrolling the entire internet while five sarcastic people yell from inside your phone. It’s a comedy podcast about mimes, hydration, trivia, Halloween, viral stupidity and the comforting realization that no matter how strange your day has been, at least you probably didn’t cover yourself in cooking oil and silently do lunges near a hiking trail. Unless you did. In that case, please stop following people. Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

Today's episode somehow begins with one of the creepiest news stories imaginable and somehow gets even weirder from there. A Massachusetts mime allegedly spent months terrifying people at a park before stripping down, coating himself in cooking oil, and breaking into an outdoor workout. Naturally, this leads the crew into an unexpectedly deep conversation about clown culture, why mimes are unsettling, irrational fears, comedy trends, and whether anyone should ever trust someone silently making eye contact from across a hiking trail. From there, everything immediately goes off the rails—as it usually does. The crew debates whether mimes actually count as clowns, why Robin Williams somehow enters the conversation, and whether cooking oil selection says something about your personality. There are plenty of sarcastic detours, plenty of roasting, and exactly zero useful life advice. Then it's time for another unforgettable round of Match Up with Moon. This may be one of the toughest trivia rounds yet. Titanic. Garlic. Wonder Woman. Norman Rockwell. The Saturday Evening Post. MBA degrees. Somehow everyone knows just enough to be confidently wrong while simultaneously making each other laugh even harder. Moon questions every answer he's ever known, Riz battles to break a losing streak, and King Scott's trivia wording creates just enough chaos to spark an all-time debate over the tiebreaker. It's everything you expect from a daily comedy podcast—friends arguing over facts that probably won't improve your life while making your commute dramatically more entertaining. If you enjoy weird news, hilarious conversations, sarcastic humor, ridiculous games, pop culture commentary, celebrity gossip, and a cast that's never afraid to roast each other (or themselves), you've found your people. Whether you've been listening for years or you're discovering the crew for the first time, this episode delivers exactly the unpredictable energy that keeps listeners coming back. This daily comedy show continues proving that the funniest moments are usually the completely unexpected ones. One minute you're learning about the psychology of clown fears, the next you're debating garlic nicknames, and before you know it everyone is arguing over magazine circulation numbers like it's the biggest issue in America. That's just another morning with The Rizzuto Show. If this episode made you laugh, be sure to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who appreciates bizarre headlines, ridiculous trivia, and unapologetically sarcastic humor. There's always another unbelievable story waiting around the corner, and somehow the crew always finds a way to make it even funnier.

Apparently your water bottle says more about you than your personality ever could. This episode starts with the crew uncovering the shocking truth that every few years a new water bottle brand completely takes over society. Stanley, Hydro Flask, Yeti, Owala... are we hydrating or just collecting emotional support cups? The gang breaks down every hydration trend from the last decade while exposing who's secretly obsessed with insulated bottles and who proudly survives on free swag from company events. From there, things somehow get even weirder. The crew jumps into a homemade game of Jeopardy featuring songs that begin with the letter "G," and what should have been a simple trivia segment quickly turns into total chaos. Buzzing too early, forgetting the rules, arguing over answers, and roasting each other... basically everything you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show. There's also a look Back in the Day with everything from Jeffrey Dahmer's arrest and America's Beautiful origins to remembering Ozzy Osbourne one year after his passing. Then it's time for a massive Crap on Celebrities packed with entertainment news including: • Oasis climbing back onto the charts thanks to the FIFA World Cup • The latest on Jelly Roll and Bunny XO's divorce rumors • Snoop Dogg's upcoming biopic • Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees • Billy Idol almost becoming the T-1000 in Terminator 2 • RoboCop returning as a TV series • Netflix bringing back Untold • MrBeast getting married • Ryan Reynolds teasing another Deadpool • Greta Van Fleet's newest music • Marilyn Manson's latest single • LEGO's incredible X-Files set • Plus birthdays, random movie facts, and enough sarcastic commentary to make your morning considerably more entertaining. As always, nobody stays on topic for very long, facts are occasionally questioned, and somehow everyone leaves knowing far more about trendy water bottles than anyone should. If your idea of a daily comedy show involves pop culture, hilarious fails, weird news, music, celebrity gossip, random trivia, and friends making each other laugh for over two hours, you've found your people. Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your day. Whether you're listening on your commute, pretending to work, or hiding from your responsibilities, we're glad you're here.

The gang starts the morning the only way they know how—immediately making fun of each other. Haircuts become serious business, Halloween planning starts months early, and somehow the conversation turns into whether a Saturday Halloween means society is doomed or simply more opportunities for bad decisions. Then comes one of the strangest stories of the day: a resurfaced TikTok trend has kids channeling the Kool-Aid Man by running through backyard fences. Yes, seriously. The crew debates whether today's version of the Kool-Aid Man sounds more exhausted than enthusiastic, imagines the mascot's depressing off-camera life, and somehow builds an entire fictional cinematic universe around a giant glass pitcher. Things only get weirder from there. A shocking local restaurant embezzlement case sparks a conversation about trust, loyalty, and how someone can allegedly steal over a million dollars while everyone else is just trying to order steak and creamed spinach. Naturally, that evolves into a full-blown discussion about the perfect steakhouse experience, favorite sides, desserts, and whether bread pudding deserves respect or belongs in the trash. Because this is a daily comedy podcast, no topic stays on the rails for very long. The bets continue as old wagers resurface, money changes hands, and Rafe and Rizz revisit one of their ongoing arguments. Meanwhile, Moon offers life lessons, Lern questions everyone's food choices, and the crew proves once again that even paying somebody back can become a comedy segment. Later, everyone dives into a surprisingly relatable discussion about Gen Z avoiding awkward Venmo requests. Why are people afraid to ask friends for money they're owed? The conversation becomes equal parts financial advice, therapy session, and roast of anyone who's ever conveniently "forgotten" to pay someone back after a vacation or concert. If you enjoy a daily comedy podcast packed with ridiculous conversations, hilarious detours, pop culture commentary, local stories, and friends roasting each other without mercy, this episode delivers from beginning to end. Whether you're here for weird news, funny celebrity gossip, Halloween hype, questionable financial decisions, or simply hearing four friends turn everyday headlines into nonstop laughs, this is another classic episode of The Rizzuto Show. Thanks for listening to the daily comedy podcast that proudly proves absolutely everything can become comedy with the right group of idiots around the microphones.

If you've ever wondered what would happen if a trivia contest, a morning radio show, and a sleep-deprived group chat collided, congratulations—you've found today's episode. The crew kicks things off with another wildly competitive round of Simpleton Trivia, where callers either bet on themselves or trust the show's questionable collection of brains to win concert tickets. Some contestants absolutely cruise. Others discover that knowing where the Sahara Desert is can become a surprisingly stressful life event. Moon attempts to prove he warned everyone not to bet on him, King Scott puts family honor on the line, and somehow frozen rain becomes one of the most debated scientific discoveries in broadcast history. Meanwhile, Rizz officially retires his infamous anatomy-themed dangler earring in a ceremony that absolutely did not need to be as dramatic as it became. Somehow robes, speeches, and unnecessary levels of pageantry all make perfect sense before the crew immediately pivots into one of the strangest news stories imaginable: a Morgan Wallen concert where one attendee decided bathrooms were optional. The discussion spirals into assault laws, concert etiquette, swamp justice, and exactly how far someone should be allowed to test another person's patience before consequences arrive. As if that weren't enough chaos, the show celebrates the return of Moon from Canada, complete with wildfire smoke stories, soccer debates, TSA adventures involving industrial-sized Pepto, and the search for Lern's official NBA team. Naturally, choosing a basketball franchise somehow becomes more difficult than filing taxes. Then the gang dives into the internet's newest music genre obsession—"Cigarette Mom Rock." If your childhood soundtrack included Alanis Morissette, Sheryl Crow, Pink, Fiona Apple, Melissa Etheridge, Michelle Branch, Lisa Loeb, Jewel, or Natalie Imbruglia blasting from a minivan with the windows cracked, congratulations...you've apparently been part of a movement this whole time. Along the way you'll hear stories about raccoons, questionable bodily functions, celebrity news, ridiculous debates, weird observations, and enough sarcastic commentary to make even the smartest person feel like a Simpleton contestant. It's exactly the kind of unpredictable daily comedy show you'd expect when nobody in the room agrees on anything except that making fun of each other is always the correct answer. Whether you're here for funny stories, entertainment gossip, weird news, celebrity chaos, ridiculous arguments, or simply to laugh at adults behaving like overgrown children, this episode delivers all of it—with absolutely zero guarantees anyone learned a lesson.

The crew fires up another chaotic round of Simpleton Trivia, giving listeners a chance to win huge concert tickets—including Rizz Birthday Bash, Urge, Evanescence, Avenged Sevenfold, and Good Charlotte. Some contestants absolutely dominate, others crash and burn after one wrong answer, and a few decide gambling on the show's brainpower is somehow a better strategy. Spoiler alert: it isn't. Moon starts the day openly warning everyone not to trust him... then immediately proves why. King Scott has to defend not only his intelligence but apparently his unborn child's future. Rizz cruises through trivia until a sneaky math question reminds everyone that confidence is temporary. Along the way the crew debates whether Dr Pepper really has 23 flavors, whether a square counts for measuring angles, why everyone's hands suddenly become the show's biggest topic, and why "protractor" may now haunt Moon forever. If you enjoy ridiculous game shows, friendly roasting, questionable trivia knowledge, and a morning show that somehow turns elementary school questions into absolute comedy, this episode delivers from start to finish. Whether you're listening on your commute, at work pretending to be productive, or yelling answers at your speakers while wondering how someone missed "ostrich," this daily podcast is packed with nonstop laughs, listener interaction, and the unpredictable chemistry that makes The Rizzuto Show one of St. Louis' favorite comedy shows. New episodes of this daily podcast bring you comedy, weird conversations, celebrity talk, listener games, and the kind of beautiful chaos that somehow makes perfect sense before 10 a.m. Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.

There are normal radio shows...and then there's this absolute disaster. This daily comedy show begins with one of the most important ceremonies in modern broadcasting: Riz officially retires his infamous women's anatomy dangler after completing his charity challenge, complete with dramatic speeches, ceremonial music, and enough unnecessary pageantry to qualify as a royal coronation. Then things immediately get worse. The gang reacts to one of the wildest concert stories we've heard in a while after a Morgan Wallen fan allegedly decided the bathroom line wasn't worth it and allegedly relieved himself directly onto families sitting below him. Was it assault? Could police arrest him immediately? Is "swamp justice" a legal defense? We ask all the questions that absolutely no one in law school prepared for. As if that wasn't enough, TikTok introduces everyone to the newest musical genre: Cigarette Mom Rock. Alanis Morissette, Sheryl Crow, Pink, Melissa Etheridge, Natalie Imbruglia, Fiona Apple, Jewel, Lisa Loeb and more all get lovingly grouped into one hilariously accurate category that somehow instantly makes perfect sense. The celebrity chaos keeps rolling with Christopher Nolan's latest blockbuster dominating theaters while Riz desperately tries to find IMAX tickets before heading overseas. The crew debates whether the Sphere is actually distracting audiences from concerts, Rush rumors start swirling, Kelly Clarkson shares way more information than anyone requested about food poisoning, Marvel finally gives us our first real look at Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, Jennifer's Body gets a sequel, Vanilla Ice heads to the Gathering of the Juggalos, and the crew somehow detours into Beaches, lupus, and why nobody can remember exactly how that movie ends. Along the way you'll hear Drew from Crippling Hot Sauce updates, celebrity birthdays, Crap on Celebrities, superhero confusion, World Cup halftime complaints, cat appreciation, and enough sarcastic commentary to make your morning considerably less productive. If your favorite kind of entertainment is a group of friends turning everyday headlines into ridiculous arguments while accidentally discovering entirely new genres of music, congratulations—you've found your people. Whether you're commuting, pretending to work, avoiding actual responsibilities, or simply looking for a daily comedy show that embraces complete chaos, this episode delivers everything from bizarre news to pop culture commentary with the sarcasm only The Rizzuto Show can provide. Thanks for making us part of your day. Seriously. We still can't believe they let us keep doing this. This daily comedy show is powered by bad decisions, weird news, questionable debates, and listeners who somehow keep coming back for more.

Sometimes the only way to explain an episode is to admit that absolutely nothing should make sense... and yet somehow it all does. In today's daily comedy podcast, Moon returns from Canada with stories about wildfire smoke that looked straight out of an apocalypse, TSA finds industrial-sized Pepto, and the gang debates whether anyone actually watches soccer after the World Cup. Then Lern accidentally becomes a Brooklyn Nets fan after an incredibly scientific spinning-wheel experiment that absolutely cannot be reversed. As if that weren't enough, the crew dives into wildfire chaos, air quality warnings, festival performances without singers, and whether anyone should willingly perform metal vocals while breathing what feels like campfire smoke. Then things take a turn that only The Rizzuto Show could survive. A listener confession about falling in love with a first cousin launches one of the most ridiculous—and surprisingly thoughtful—discussions the crew has ever had. Legal research, state laws, historical examples, terrible advice, and nonstop roasting somehow collide into radio gold. Meanwhile, Tim gets a new Chevy Colorado, truck nuts somehow become part of the conversation (of course they do), and the show once again proves why no topic is ever too weird to become comedy. If you love sarcastic conversations, unexpected tangents, hilarious listener emails, pop culture commentary, celebrity stories, weird news, and friends making each other laugh for nearly three hours straight, this daily comedy podcast delivers exactly that. Whether you've been listening for years or this is your first episode, buckle up. Nobody stays on topic, everybody gets roasted, and somehow you'll probably learn something completely useless along the way. The Rizzuto Show continues to prove why a daily comedy podcast doesn't need a script when you've got a room full of personalities willing to chase every ridiculous rabbit hole imaginable.

Rizz returns from Lake of the Ozarks with stories that immediately raise questions about the local water quality, why "Doo Doo Cove" sounds exactly like what everyone thinks it does, and whether anyone should trust a body of water that inspires conversations about E. coli before breakfast. Between luxury boats, lake restaurants, cover bands playing everything from Def Leppard to Stone Temple Pilots, and a nighttime cruise that somehow turns into jokes about "Potty Cove," the crew proves once again that no vacation is safe from relentless roasting. Lern brings the emotional roller coaster. After performing with her band during one of the hottest weekends of the summer while sticking to Dry July, she shares stories from seeing Graham Nash live, discovering just how emotional Jason Isbell's music can be, and accidentally turning a simple drive home into a philosophical discussion about love, mortality, and asking Tim one of the most uncomfortable hypothetical questions imaginable. Leave it to this show to pivot from crying in the shower to making fun of old people at concerts in less than thirty seconds. King Scott breaks down his concert at Copper Fire. The review of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, debating where it ranks among Nolan's best films while also recounting one of the most frustrating movie theater experiences imaginable. Apparently, Nicole Kidman can remind everyone to silence their phones, but that doesn't stop a few audience members from treating a three-hour epic like their personal conference room. Along the way, the gang debates relationship guilt trips after solo vacations, laughs about passive-aggressive texts involving twenty loads of laundry and Beaches, swaps stories from weekend gigs around St. Louis, and somehow finds themselves discussing haunted taverns, giant lake houses, military-themed party boats, and why some people apparently spend millions on yachts that never leave freshwater. Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without conversations wandering completely off the rails. What starts as a harmless weekend recap turns into debates about movie etiquette, music that absolutely destroys your emotional stability, bizarre lake myths, and one of the funniest recurring bits of the day surrounding "C**a Cove." Add in the infamous Mountain Dew theft story, plenty of listener interaction, sarcastic commentary, and nonstop riffing, and you've got exactly the kind of chaos listeners expect every morning. Somehow the World Cup finally got a halftime show... and somehow we still found plenty to complain about. It's Moon Day, which means Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin get the glory while poor Michael Collins gets roasted for being the guy who drove everyone to the moon and wasn't allowed to get out of the car. We imagine the greatest prank NASA never pulled, discuss Bruce Lee, NeverEnding Story, James Gunn, Ozzy Day, and somehow turn historical events into completely unnecessary comedy. Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where Jelly Roll and Bunny XO's divorce, Willie Nelson's latest memoir, Apple Music price hikes, Metallica preparing for The Sphere, Shane Gillis smashing comedy attendance records, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, Charlie Sheen family drama, celebrity careers hanging on by a thread, and plenty of entertainment gossip all get thrown into the blender. Along the way we debate whether stadium comedy is actually fun, argue about the best place to watch Nolan movies, wonder if The Rock needs a career reboot, celebrate Carlos Santana's birthday, and somehow end up discussing Michael Collins' intrusive thoughts while orbiting the moon. Would you hand over your dating life to artificial intelligence? Better question... would you trust Rafe Williams with your dating profile? That's the completely reasonable debate the gang accidentally has on today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, where one ridiculous idea somehow spirals into an entire discussion about modern dating, catfishing, AI matchmaking, relationship green flags, restaurant red flags, and why everyone's emotional baggage apparently comes with free shipping. It all starts with Rafe pitching what may be the worst—or greatest—experiment in show history: creating dating app profiles using Rizzuto's photos just to see what kind of chaos happens. Naturally, the room immediately realizes this could destroy friendships, marriages, reputations, and probably a few Terms of Service agreements. The conversation somehow gets even weirder when everyone starts debating whether younger versions of themselves would outperform their current selves on dating apps, complete with AI-generated aging photos and nostalgic stories from the early internet. Then things take a futuristic turn as the crew dives into a new AI-powered matchmaking service that's arranging dates for college students. Instead of endless swiping, artificial intelligence chooses your match, schedules your date, and may eventually give you conversation topics before you even meet. Convenient? Creepy? A little of both? The gang debates whether we're heading toward a future where AI agents date each other before humans ever have to. Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without immediately asking ChatGPT to describe everyone's ideal romantic partner. The results are surprisingly deep, unexpectedly hilarious, and occasionally a little too accurate for comfort. Nothing says "healthy discussion" like being emotionally profiled by a chatbot. Later, the conversation shifts into relationship green flags as the crew breaks down the little traits that instantly make someone more attractive—from confidence and curiosity to financial responsibility, power tools, good posture, and apparently picking things up with your toes. Finally, they tackle one of the biggest personality tests there is: going out to eat together. How someone treats restaurant staff, orders their meal, handles mistakes, tips, uses their phone, or reacts to cold mashed potatoes might reveal everything you need to know before committing to a second date.

Somehow the World Cup finally got a halftime show... and somehow we still found plenty to complain about. Today's comedy podcast starts with the crew breaking down the most bizarre halftime spectacle imaginable. Madonna appears for what feels like twelve seconds, BTS brings the choreography, Justin Bieber decides the world's biggest sporting event needs an acoustic therapy session, and then Shakira walks out to remind everyone why those hips have never lied. Naturally, we have opinions. From there, things somehow get even weirder. It's Moon Day, which means Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin get the glory while poor Michael Collins gets roasted for being the guy who drove everyone to the moon and wasn't allowed to get out of the car. We imagine the greatest prank NASA never pulled, discuss Bruce Lee, NeverEnding Story, James Gunn, Ozzy Day, and somehow turn historical events into completely unnecessary comedy.

Thanks for hanging out with us for another comedy podcast filled with questionable opinions, unnecessary arguments, and just enough actual information to keep things interesting.

Some people spend the weekend relaxing. The Rizzuto Show somehow turns one weekend into enough material for an entire daily comedy episode. Rizz returns from Lake of the Ozarks with stories that immediately raise questions about the local water quality, why "Doo Doo Cove" sounds exactly like what everyone thinks it does, and whether anyone should trust a body of water that inspires conversations about E. coli before breakfast. Between luxury boats, lake restaurants, cover bands playing everything from Def Leppard to Stone Temple Pilots, and a nighttime cruise that somehow turns into jokes about "Potty Cove," the crew proves once again that no vacation is safe from relentless roasting.

Rizz is packing up for his only Lake of the Ozarks trip of the summer, Rose Gold Gun hitmaker King Scott sings some Simon and Garfunkel, and the hidden financial nightmare of competitive cheerleading. Between mandatory practices, travel tournaments, fundraising, choreography week, and enough expenses to qualify as a second mortgage, parents everywhere are going to feel seen. Rizz even reveals the absolutely ridiculous amount of money he offered his daughter to quit competitive cheer... and she turned him down. The conversation somehow shifts into whether America should finally stop changing the clocks twice a year, why permanent daylight saving time already failed once in the 1970s, and whether today's world could actually handle months of kids waiting for school buses in complete darkness. Then things take a turn only this show could make entertaining. The crew dives headfirst into what may officially become "Diarrhea Summer" after thousands of reported illnesses connected to contaminated lettuce. They break down the parasite behind the outbreak, why Taco Bell voluntarily removed lettuce from restaurants, how to tell the difference between ordinary food poisoning and something much worse, and why absolutely nobody is going to Taco Bell for the lettuce anyway. Naturally, that spirals into discussions about parasite cleanses, tapeworm weight-loss schemes, and whether anyone would voluntarily host a parasite if it meant fitting into smaller jeans. Because apparently that wasn't weird enough, Rizz asks the question no one was prepared to answer: if scientists could grow meat using your own DNA, would eating it count as cannibalism? The debate quickly becomes one of the strangest conversations we've ever had as the crew imagines Rizz Burgers, Learn Nuggets, Sweet Baby Rafe barbecue sauce, and whether farting yourself after eating yourself somehow completes the circle of life. The weird science keeps rolling as the crew explores why humans stopped eating other humans in the first place, the diseases that made cannibalism one of history's worst survival strategies, and how biology—not just morality—may have shaped one of humanity's biggest taboos. As if that wasn't enough, the second half of the episode becomes one giant food argument. Ketchup on hot dogs. Pineapple on pizza. Steak temperatures. Miracle Whip versus mayonnaise. Fried pickles. Cilantro. Black licorice. Banana bread with walnuts. Tomato sandwiches. Pickle juice. Nearly every classic food debate gets thrown onto the table, and everyone has an opinion they're willing to defend. Will George Wallace officially earn his third-timer status? . The crew is hit with an unbelievable story about a dog discovered locked inside an apartment after its owners moved away, sparking a passionate conversation about animal rescue, fostering, shelters, and exactly how furious everyone becomes when people treat animals like disposable furniture. Florida once again proves reality is funnier than fiction when a 76-year-old woman receives a randomly assigned license plate that accidentally spells out "SQUEEZE ASS." Naturally, the crew spends way too much time imagining life inside a retirement community where everyone suddenly becomes interested in Nancy's new ride. The laughs continue with another packed edition of Crap on Celebrities featuring Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding updates, Blink-182 collectibles, Slipknot recording dozens of new songs, Lana Del Rey's upcoming albums, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, celebrity birthdays, Star Wars movie memorabilia selling for millions, and an unexpectedly passionate debate ranking every Christopher Nolan film ever made. Somehow the conversation also includes Batman, Luke Skywalker's lightsaber, Matt Damon, Al Roker, grandparents, Super Troopers, George Wallace preparations, and enough random detours to remind everyone why no meeting on this show ever stays on the agenda. This episode kicks off with Kevin Smith dropping in before the crew dives headfirst into the newest airline seating experiments. Would you actually pay extra for an empty middle seat? Is Premium Economy worth it? Would Rafe really spend five grand for a business-class pod to Paris? The debate quickly becomes less about travel and more about the realities of being a large human trapped inside airplane geometry. Then the chaos truly begins. Rafe revisits some of the biggest comedy moments from the first half of the year during an unforgettable eMemorium retrospective. That means revisiting legendary fake productions like "Inner Shaft," celebrating the mysterious "Ozempic Penis" phenomenon, checking back in with the radioactive St. Louis monkeys and goat that somehow evolved into the "Lazy Entitled Millennial Monkeys," pitching Bravo's next hit dating disaster "Dukes of Haggard," and replaying Steven Tyler's heartfelt (and completely ridiculous) voicemail before Lern's surgery. As always, the crew somehow manages to make parody songs even more ridiculous than the news stories that inspired them. The episode wraps with this week's eMemorium honoring entertainment legends, remembering beloved local musician Bobby Rollins, catching a fake death rumor in real time, and teasing another round of Friday Fail Stories involving fake anatomy, bad criminals, and Instagram proving once again that some people really shouldn't have internet access.

Some shows have a plan. This one boards a flight with Kevin Smith, argues over middle seats, accidentally creates an airline business strategy, and somehow lands in radioactive monkey territory before finishing with one of the most ridiculous eMemorium retrospectives we've ever done.

There's airline complaints... There's mutant animals... There's cowboy hats... There's first-class dreams... There's enough sarcasm to require TSA screening. The episode wraps with this week's eMemorium honoring entertainment legends, remembering beloved local musician Bobby Rollins, catching a fake death rumor in real time, and teasing another round of Friday Fail Stories involving fake anatomy, bad criminals, and Instagram proving once again that some people really shouldn't have internet access.

George Wallace officially earns his third-timer status on The Rizzuto Show, but before he even arrives, the morning takes a turn nobody expected. The crew is hit with an unbelievable story about a dog discovered locked inside an apartment after its owners moved away, sparking a passionate conversation about animal rescue, fostering, shelters, and exactly how furious everyone becomes when people treat animals like disposable furniture. Then Florida once again proves reality is funnier than fiction when a 76-year-old woman receives a randomly assigned license plate that accidentally spells out "SQUEEZE ASS." Naturally, the crew spends way too much time imagining life inside a retirement community where everyone suddenly becomes interested in Nancy's new ride. The laughs continue with another packed edition of Crap on Celebrities featuring Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding updates, Blink-182 collectibles, Slipknot recording dozens of new songs, Lana Del Rey's upcoming albums, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, celebrity birthdays, Star Wars movie memorabilia selling for millions, and an unexpectedly passionate debate ranking every Christopher Nolan film ever made. Somehow the conversation also includes Batman, Luke Skywalker's lightsaber, Matt Damon, Al Roker, grandparents, Super Troopers, George Wallace preparations, and enough random detours to remind everyone why no meeting on this show ever stays on the agenda. If you love weird news, hilarious conversations, celebrity stories, pop culture commentary, and friends giving each other grief for absolutely no reason, this is exactly what you signed up for. Whether you've listened for years or you're brand new to The Rizzuto Show, Episode 169 delivers the perfect mix of ridiculous headlines, genuine moments, and laugh-out-loud conversations that have made this crew one of St. Louis' favorite morning shows.

It's Friday, which means the crew is officially one foot out the studio door and one foot headed toward questionable weekend decisions. Rizz is packing up for his only Lake of the Ozarks trip of the summer, but even that turns into a conversation about the hidden financial nightmare of competitive cheerleading. Between mandatory practices, travel tournaments, fundraising, choreography week, and enough expenses to qualify as a second mortgage, parents everywhere are going to feel seen. Rizz even reveals the absolutely ridiculous amount of money he offered his daughter to quit competitive cheer... and she turned him down. The conversation somehow shifts into whether America should finally stop changing the clocks twice a year, why permanent daylight saving time already failed once in the 1970s, and whether today's world could actually handle months of kids waiting for school buses in complete darkness. Then things take a turn only this show could make entertaining. The crew dives headfirst into what may officially become "Diarrhea Summer" after thousands of reported illnesses connected to contaminated lettuce. They break down the parasite behind the outbreak, why Taco Bell voluntarily removed lettuce from restaurants, how to tell the difference between ordinary food poisoning and something much worse, and why absolutely nobody is going to Taco Bell for the lettuce anyway. Naturally, that spirals into discussions about parasite cleanses, tapeworm weight-loss schemes, and whether anyone would voluntarily host a parasite if it meant fitting into smaller jeans. Because apparently that wasn't weird enough, Rizz asks the question no one was prepared to answer: if scientists could grow meat using your own DNA, would eating it count as cannibalism? The debate quickly becomes one of the strangest conversations we've ever had as the crew imagines Rizz Burgers, Learn Nuggets, Sweet Baby Rafe barbecue sauce, and whether farting yourself after eating yourself somehow completes the circle of life. The weird science keeps rolling as the crew explores why humans stopped eating other humans in the first place, the diseases that made cannibalism one of history's worst survival strategies, and how biology—not just morality—may have shaped one of humanity's biggest taboos. As if that wasn't enough, the second half of the episode becomes one giant food argument. Ketchup on hot dogs. Pineapple on pizza. Steak temperatures. Miracle Whip versus mayonnaise. Fried pickles. Cilantro. Black licorice. Banana bread with walnuts. Tomato sandwiches. Pickle juice. Nearly every classic food debate gets thrown onto the table, and everyone has an opinion they're willing to defend. The show wraps up with a listener question that's guaranteed to make every married person uncomfortable: what do you say when your spouse asks if their gray hair makes them look older? The crew debates whether honesty is actually the best policy, why compliments sometimes backfire, and how aging gracefully somehow became one of the trickiest relationship conversations imaginable. It's another episode packed with sarcastic humor, ridiculous news, relatable parenting struggles, bizarre hypotheticals, pop culture commentary, and the kind of conversations that somehow only make sense after you've listened to the whole thing. If you're here for daily laughs, strange internet rabbit holes, and friends arguing about absolutely everything, welcome home.

What starts as a conversation about Missouri float trips quickly spirals into absolute Rizz Show nonsense. The gang debates the best rivers to float, tells stories about cliff jumping, beer helmets, and questionable rafting decisions before taking a hard left into one of the weirdest mornings we've had in a while. Then...the studio fire alarm goes off. In real time, the crew debates whether to abandon the building, compares themselves to the captain of the Costa Concordia, questions maritime law, and somehow turns an emergency evacuation into comedy. Fortunately, everyone survives the "catastrophe" and returns to the studio with nothing more than bruised egos and a fresh appreciation for construction dust. As if that wasn't enough, Learn celebrates National Hot Dog Day with Steve's Hot Dogs, the crew argues about the proper way to eat a hot dog without looking ridiculous, and everyone collectively decides the word "glizzy" deserves to disappear forever. Missouri news keeps the chaos rolling as the crew debates higher interstate speed limits, gets completely lost trying to figure out daylight saving time, celebrates Lion's Choice landing on USA Today's best regional fast food list, and somehow manages to make basic legislation sound impossibly confusing. Meanwhile, Moon discovers an actual beetle inside a bag of coffee, decides to brew it anyway, and accidentally sends everyone into a discussion about FDA limits on insect parts in food that absolutely nobody asked for but everyone somehow needed. Add in bizarre lawsuits, White Castle stories, documentaries, celebrity tangents, weird news, listener emails, and the usual sarcastic back-and-forth, and you've got another completely normal day...by Rizz Show standards. Then the building catches everyone's attention with a fire alarm, Rizz refuses to evacuate because apparently radio hosts go down with the ship, and somehow the conversation spirals into MySpace, CDs making a comeback, William Shatner becoming a metal frontman at 95, and why nobody under 25 knows who Hole is anymore. Just another Tuesday. This episode starts with excitement surrounding the upcoming Super Troopers 3 as the Broken Lizard crew prepares to visit the studio, giving everyone an excuse to geek out over one of the greatest comedy franchises ever made. Before they arrive, the crew jumps into Crap on Celebrities, where nostalgia absolutely takes over. Could MySpace actually deserve more respect than it gets? Turns out the platform helped launch artists like Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Adele, and even Dane Cook before social media became the attention economy we know today. That naturally leads into everyone's embarrassing MySpace memories, Top 8 drama, party bulletins, and the strange realization that we all willingly learned HTML just to put terrible music on our profiles. Speaking of things nobody expected to return... CDs are suddenly making a comeback. Yes... actual compact discs. The crew debates whether anyone even owns a CD player anymore, whether physical media still matters, and whether younger generations are rediscovering something older fans never completely gave up on. It's part nostalgia, part technology debate, and part excuse for Moon to become the resident audio nerd. Then things somehow become even stranger. William Shatner is officially performing heavy metal songs at Riot Fest... at ninety-five years old. If you've ever wondered how you pitch a Super Troopers sequel that somehow revolves around Farva marrying Thorny's sister... congratulations, you're exactly the kind of person who belongs here. The Broken Lizard crew joins The Rizzuto Show to pull back the curtain on Super Troopers 3, hitting theaters August 7. They explain how the movie evolved into a massive wedding comedy inspired by real-life Indian wedding celebrations, why an elephant became part of the insanity, and how Farva once again manages to become everyone's favorite walking HR violation. Along the way, the guys talk about stepping back into those famous uniforms, convincing Brian Cox to return after becoming television royalty on Succession, and what it's feels like watching one of the greatest actors alive casually roast everyone on set. Turns out working with Brian Cox means getting insulted by a professional... and somehow enjoying every second of it. Of course, this wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without the rails disappearing almost immediately. Rafe spends an uncomfortable amount of time explaining his ongoing campaign to become everyone's stepdad by marrying their mothers. Somehow that transitions into discussions about prison etiquette, monster trucks replacing elephants at weddings, popcorn buckets becoming collector's items, and whether Potfest will ever actually happen. The conversation also covers the incredible crowdfunding success behind Super Troopers 2, the eight-year journey to making the third film, hidden pop culture references fans should watch for, and why you absolutely need to stay after the credits. If you're a longtime Broken Lizard fan, a movie nerd, or just someone who appreciates comedians who somehow built an entire career making hilarious movies with their best friends, this episode delivers nonstop laughs from start to finish.

Some mornings you wake up expecting another normal daily comedy show. Then the building catches everyone's attention with a fire alarm, Rizz refuses to evacuate because apparently radio hosts go down with the ship, and somehow the conversation spirals into MySpace, CDs making a comeback, William Shatner becoming a metal frontman at 95, and why nobody under 25 knows who Hole is anymore.

This episode starts with excitement surrounding the upcoming Super Troopers 3 as the Broken Lizard crew prepares to visit the studio, giving everyone an excuse to geek out over one of the greatest comedy franchises ever made.

It's part nostalgia, part technology debate, and part excuse for Moon to become the resident audio nerd. Then things somehow become even stranger. William Shatner is officially performing heavy metal songs at Riot Fest... at ninety-five years old. The conversation somehow makes perfect sense. Elsewhere in celebrity news: • The Batman Part II gets delayed again. • A new Rocky movie about Sylvester Stallone fighting to play himself looks surprisingly incredible. • Paris Jackson earns praise for covering Blind Melon's "No Rain." • Alec Baldwin accidentally makes another tribute about... Alec Baldwin. • The Grateful Dead release a massive 20-CD collection because apparently CDs aren't dead after all. • Hole returns to social media, prompting an entire debate over whether younger music fans even know who Courtney Love's band was. Along the way, the crew shares ridiculous observations, roasts each other relentlessly, argues over music, remembers forgotten internet history, and proves once again why no topic stays on the rails for very long. That's exactly why this daily comedy show continues to be the easiest way to stay caught up on celebrity news, weird stories, pop culture, and conversations that somehow go from MySpace coding to William Shatner screaming heavy metal in less than ten minutes. If you enjoy sarcastic humor, entertainment news, nostalgic pop culture rabbit holes, and a group of friends who rarely let facts get in the way of a good joke, this episode has everything you need from your favorite daily comedy show.

Today's daily comedy episode is packed with the exact kind of chaos you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show. Before anyone can explain why a dangling uterus earring might end up on a beer label, the crew is already promoting Rizz's Birthday Bash, roasting each other, and proving that no meeting should ever be left unsupervised. Then it's time for everyone's favorite game, Do It Bitch, where confidence is high, strategy is questionable, and Moon somehow survives a fruit challenge that looked destined to implode. What starts as a simple round of naming fruit quickly becomes a hilarious masterclass in overthinking, trash talk, and pure panic as Rafe plays chess while everyone else is playing checkers. Somehow, fruit becomes one of the most suspenseful moments of the day. Of course, the laughs don't stop there. The crew goes completely off the rails discussing secret side bets, mysterious hallway conversations, and why nobody is willing to tell Rizz what's happening outside the studio. If you've ever worked with friends who immediately become suspicious the second they hear whispering, you'll feel right at home. As always, the conversation bounces from ridiculous observations to completely unexpected tangents that only this crew could turn into comedy. It's another perfect example of why The Rizzuto Show continues to be one of the most unpredictable shows on the radio. Whether you're here for the games, the sarcasm, the weird conversations, or just need a break from taking life too seriously, this episode delivers nonstop laughs from start to finish. If you're looking for a daily comedy podcast filled with hilarious conversations, ridiculous competitions, and the kind of chemistry that only comes from years of friendship, you've found it. From bizarre beer label ideas to competitive game show moments and everything in between, this episode is classic Rizz Show chaos.

There are episodes where everything goes according to plan... This is absolutely not one of those. The crew kicks things off trying to settle on a name for the upcoming Birthday Bash beer, but naturally the conversation immediately gets hijacked by one very important question: should the artwork feature the now-legendary dangling uterus earring? Somehow, everyone has an opinion, nobody can explain why it's hilarious, and before long the "dangler" has become the unofficial mascot of the day. Because that's just how a daily comedy show works around here. Then it's time for another edition of Do It Bitch, where confidence is everything... until the timer starts. Fruit becomes surprisingly stressful. Capital cities suddenly vanish from people's memories. Four-legged animals somehow become controversial. Every category turns into another opportunity for someone to completely freeze while the rest of the room alternates between encouragement and relentless roasting. There are whispered hallway meetings. Secret strategies nobody wants to explain. Accusations of mind games. Wild overthinking. Even simple trivia somehow turns into psychological warfare as both teams try to outguess one another before anyone actually has to answer. It's competitive. It's ridiculous. It's exactly the kind of organized chaos you'd expect from a daily comedy show that somehow functions despite everyone trying to derail each other every few minutes. Whether you're here for the games, the sarcastic commentary, Moon's accidental brilliance, Rafe's strategy sessions, Learn's quick wit, King Scott's unforgettable brain freezes, or Rizz trying to keep the train on the tracks while everyone keeps removing the rails, this episode delivers nonstop laughs from beginning to end. If you love funny conversations that spiral into complete nonsense, competitive games that become far more intense than they should, and the unique chemistry that only The Rizzuto Show can create, this episode is packed with everything you come for. Thanks for making us part of your day. Every listen, every comment, every share, and every laugh helps keep this wonderfully dysfunctional circus rolling. We'll be back tomorrow with even more ridiculous stories, questionable decisions, and another round of whatever weirdness decides to happen once the microphones turn on. Because around here, normal is overrated—and thankfully, almost never shows up. Thanks for listening to another daily comedy adventure with The Rizzuto Show.

If you've ever wondered what happens when billionaire ego collides with Netflix true crime, TLC discovers suburban Missouri, and the Rizz Show crew has entirely too many opinions... congratulations. You found today's daily comedy show. The episode starts with one of the most ridiculous sports stories we've heard in a while—an NHL owner putting his own kids' names on the Stanley Cup before longtime staff members. Because apparently being a billionaire now comes with DLC privileges. Then things get wonderfully weird. The gang dives into the psychology behind binge-watching true crime documentaries and why so many people are developing what experts are calling "True Crime Brain." Is every neighbor secretly dangerous? Is every strange noise outside your house the beginning of a Netflix documentary? Maybe. Maybe not. But after hearing this conversation, you might check the locks one extra time anyway. As if that wasn't enough, TLC enters the chat. A brand-new reality show featuring suburban St. Louis couples making adult content sparks one of the funniest—and surprisingly thoughtful—debates of the morning. The crew discusses teachers leaving education, financial reality, internet fame, judgment, and why TLC somehow transformed from "The Learning Channel" into whatever glorious chaos it has become today. Meanwhile, Howard Stern announces another major reduction to his schedule, leading to a conversation about radio legends, retirement, work addiction, and whether anyone would turn down millions to work one day a week. (Spoiler: absolutely nobody in this room.) Music fans get plenty to chew on with new releases from Queens of the Stone Age and Nickelback, Iron Maiden cashing in on their legendary catalog, and an unexpectedly passionate debate over the greatest female-fronted bands of the '90s. Courtney Love, Garbage, Alanis Morissette, No Doubt, Hole, Elastica, Bikini Kill—the arguments get heated... in the healthiest possible way. Of course, no episode would be complete without celebrity news, weird internet stories, birthdays, questionable life choices, and the kind of sarcastic commentary that somehow makes everything feel just a little less ridiculous. Whether you're here for celebrity gossip, bizarre news, pop culture commentary, music discussions, or simply watching the crew derail perfectly good conversations, this daily comedy show delivers another completely unfiltered ride. If you're looking for laughs, weird headlines, St. Louis stories, and conversations that somehow bounce from billionaire drama to horror documentaries to suburban reality television without ever touching the brakes, you've found your people. Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your day. We appreciate every listener who chooses to spend part of their morning with our beautiful disaster of a daily comedy show.

If you've ever wondered how one conversation about Canadian border laws could somehow spiral into senior citizen driving debates, bizarre hospital traditions from the 1970s, delivery room survival strategies, and an emotional support hot dog... congratulations, you've found today's episode. On this episode of The Rizzuto Show, Moon gets ready for Canada while Rafe discovers that decades-old paperwork might be standing between him and crossing the border. Apparently Canada has a longer memory than most family members, and tracking down forgotten records becomes its own adventure worthy of Nicolas Cage. Meanwhile, the crew debates whether elderly drivers should have regular driving tests, shares stories from local St. Louis traffic, and somehow turns a DMV visit into one of the funniest conversations of the day. If you've ever been trapped behind two Buicks driving exactly the same speed, you'll probably feel seen. Scott also finds himself in the hot seat as the crew prepares him for fatherhood. From hospital bags and delivery room playlists to diaper disasters and everything nobody warns you about before bringing a baby home, the advice is equal parts helpful and absolutely terrible. Thankfully, everyone else has already made enough parenting mistakes to share with him. The conversation only gets stranger when the crew compares today's parenting experience with hospital rules from the 1970s, when smoking in delivery rooms apparently wasn't even considered unusual. It's a reminder that maybe the past wasn't always the good old days. Add in hilarious stories, sarcastic observations, local St. Louis flavor, unexpected tangents, and the kind of conversations that somehow only make sense on this show, and you've got another episode packed with laughs from beginning to end. Whether you're here for the ridiculous conversations, funny stories, entertainment gossip, weird news, or just need something to make your commute a little less painful, this daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of chaos you've come to expect. Every episode brings the crew's unique mix of sarcasm, friendship, and complete inability to stay on topic—and that's exactly why listeners keep coming back. If you're new to the show, welcome aboard. If you've been listening for years, thanks for continuing to enable this nonsense. Either way, buckle up because this daily comedy show somehow finds new ways to derail itself every single morning. From celebrity chatter and local stories to parenting fails and ridiculous debates, this daily comedy show proves once again that the funniest moments are usually the ones nobody planned.

Lern discovers she's apparently hosting an all-you-can-eat wildlife buffet, which leads the crew down a rabbit hole of animal enthusiasts, backyard turtles, salmonella debates, and the legendary woman who accidentally assembled an army of hungry raccoons. As always, common sense takes a back seat while the jokes grab the wheel. Then the conversation shifts full steam ahead—literally—as Union Pacific's legendary Big Boy 4014 rolls toward St. Louis. The crew dives headfirst into train culture after discovering internet train icon Francis Bourgeois, whose pure joy over locomotives leaves everyone questioning whether they've ever truly loved anything as much as this man loves steam engines. Somewhere between "Where's Big Boy?" and "Amy is definitely out of his league," the gang realizes maybe the happiest people are just the ones who never let go of what made them smile as kids. Remember Sam Goody? Spencer's? Gadzooks? Waldenbooks? Radio Shack? KB Toys? Sharper Image? Orange Julius? The gang does, and what starts as a simple conversation about Gen Z returning to malls quickly becomes a full-blown trip through America's greatest retail memories. From candy stores and arcades to awkward trips through Spencer's "back section," every mall kid from the 80s and 90s will find themselves laughing along. Throw in stories about growing up, childhood obsessions, bizarre shopping trends, unforgettable stores, and the kind of sarcastic chaos only this crew can create, and you've got another episode that somehow manages to be completely ridiculous while also reminding everyone it's okay to stay excited about the things you love. Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your morning. Whether you're listening in St. Louis, across the country, or hiding from raccoons on your own roof, we're glad you're here for another daily comedy show that proves reality is almost always funnier than fiction. Apparently now people collect garbage from outside Taylor Swift's wedding. Naturally, the crew has questions... and absolutely zero chill. Weirdest celebrity stories we've seen in a while: an artist sweeping trash off the streets outside Madison Square Garden after Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding, sealing it into tiny cubes, and somehow selling every single one. Is it brilliant performance art? A genius business move? Or proof that fandom has officially reached another dimension? The debate gets surprisingly heated as everyone tries to decide where "historic memorabilia" ends and "literal garbage" begins. Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities featuring everything from Mick Jagger regretting never meeting Elvis Presley, Tom Cruise's bizarre new comedy, Marvel updates, Spaceballs 2, NASCAR music, Netflix turning Monopoly into a reality competition, Adam Driver rumors, Freddy Krueger's return, celebrity birthdays, and enough pop culture chaos to make your group chat explode. Along the way, you'll also hear discussions about celebrity divorces, whether meeting your heroes is actually a bad idea, why Jason somehow ended up taking Manhattan, Moon discovering famous adopted celebrities, and Rizz nearly wiping out at the post office because apparently gravity remains undefeated. We immediately start with Rizz proudly showing off his latest consequence from a charity auction: a pair of very noticeable uterus earrings. What follows is exactly the kind of conversation you'd expect from this crew... except somehow even stranger. There's an anatomy lesson, fashion critiques, ear piercing stories, unexpected bonding moments, and the official formation of the "Plug Brothers." We wish we were making that up. Naturally, the arguments become just as entertaining as the answers. Is coconut water the same thing as coconut milk? Does "glass slipper" deserve extra credit? How many lanes are actually on a standard running track? Nobody can simply answer a question and move on when this group is involved.

Some radio shows ease into the morning. We immediately start with Rizz proudly showing off his latest consequence from a charity auction: a pair of very noticeable uterus earrings. What follows is exactly the kind of conversation you'd expect from this crew... except somehow even stranger. There's an anatomy lesson, fashion critiques, ear piercing stories, unexpected bonding moments, and the official formation of the "Plug Brothers." We wish we were making that up. After everyone finishes roasting Rizz's new look, the competition begins with another edition of the Riz Quiz. What should have been a quick round of easy trivia turns into one of the closest games we've had in recent memory. Contestants race through rapid-fire questions covering everything from Disney princesses and geography to football, weather, baking, science, and random facts you definitely learned in elementary school... hopefully. Naturally, the arguments become just as entertaining as the answers. Is coconut water the same thing as coconut milk? Does "glass slipper" deserve extra credit? How many lanes are actually on a standard running track? Nobody can simply answer a question and move on when this group is involved. As the leaderboard tightens, multiple contestants refuse to back down, forcing playoff after playoff until someone finally survives one of the most intense Riz Quiz endings we've seen. The tension is real. The debates are ridiculous. The jokes never stop. This episode is packed with sarcastic humor, unexpected conversations, hilarious fails, and the kind of chemistry that keeps listeners coming back every morning. Whether you're here for the trivia, the ridiculous bets, the pop culture commentary, or simply to hear adults spend way too much time discussing novelty earrings, you'll feel right at home. The Rizzuto Show brings you a daily comedy experience built around real conversations, outrageous moments, listener interaction, entertainment gossip, weird news, and plenty of laughs. If you love a daily comedy podcast that never takes itself too seriously, you've found your people. Thanks for making us part of your day and hanging out for another episode of daily comedy.

Some people collect baseball cards. Some people collect concert posters. Apparently now people collect garbage from outside Taylor Swift's wedding. Naturally, the crew has questions... and absolutely zero chill. This episode kicks off with one of the weirdest celebrity stories we've seen in a while: an artist sweeping trash off the streets outside Madison Square Garden after Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding, sealing it into tiny cubes, and somehow selling every single one. Is it brilliant performance art? A genius business move? Or proof that fandom has officially reached another dimension? The debate gets surprisingly heated as everyone tries to decide where "historic memorabilia" ends and "literal garbage" begins. From there, the conversation spirals exactly the way you'd expect from a comedy podcast. The gang debates celebrity obsession, talks about people traveling across the country just to stand outside major events, and wonders if there's any limit to what fans will buy. Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities featuring everything from Mick Jagger regretting never meeting Elvis Presley, Tom Cruise's bizarre new comedy, Marvel updates, Spaceballs 2, NASCAR music, Netflix turning Monopoly into a reality competition, Adam Driver rumors, Freddy Krueger's return, celebrity birthdays, and enough pop culture chaos to make your group chat explode. Along the way, you'll also hear discussions about celebrity divorces, whether meeting your heroes is actually a bad idea, why Jason somehow ended up taking Manhattan, Moon discovering famous adopted celebrities, and Rizz nearly wiping out at the post office because apparently gravity remains undefeated. It's everything you expect from The Rizzuto Show: sarcastic humor, ridiculous debates, celebrity news, weird stories, pop culture commentary, and the kind of conversations that somehow start with trash cubes and end with horror movies and band names. If you're looking for a comedy podcast that mixes funny celebrity gossip, entertainment news, hilarious arguments, and the daily nonsense only this crew can create, you've found today's episode. Whether you're listening from St. Louis or anywhere else, thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your day. And remember… sometimes one person's garbage really is another person's collectible.

Some mornings start with coffee. This one starts with raccoons tap dancing across Lern's roof at two in the morning and somehow only gets weirder from there. Lern discovers she's apparently hosting an all-you-can-eat wildlife buffet, which leads the crew down a rabbit hole of animal enthusiasts, backyard turtles, salmonella debates, and the legendary woman who accidentally assembled an army of hungry raccoons. As always, common sense takes a back seat while the jokes grab the wheel. Then the conversation shifts full steam ahead—literally—as Union Pacific's legendary Big Boy 4014 rolls toward St. Louis. The crew dives headfirst into train culture after discovering internet train icon Francis Bourgeois, whose pure joy over locomotives leaves everyone questioning whether they've ever truly loved anything as much as this man loves steam engines. Somewhere between "Where's Big Boy?" and "Amy is definitely out of his league," the gang realizes maybe the happiest people are just the ones who never let go of what made them smile as kids. Of course, no Rizz Show conversation stays on the tracks for long. The crew spirals into a surprisingly heartfelt discussion about hobbies, why adults forget how to be excited, and whether cooking, traveling, napping, or even shame qualify as legitimate pastimes. The debate somehow becomes both hilarious and oddly philosophical before making one of the hardest left turns imaginable... ...straight into 90s mall nostalgia. Remember Sam Goody? Spencer's? Gadzooks? Waldenbooks? Radio Shack? KB Toys? Sharper Image? Orange Julius? The gang does, and what starts as a simple conversation about Gen Z returning to malls quickly becomes a full-blown trip through America's greatest retail memories. From candy stores and arcades to awkward trips through Spencer's "back section," every mall kid from the 80s and 90s will find themselves laughing along. Throw in stories about growing up, childhood obsessions, bizarre shopping trends, unforgettable stores, and the kind of sarcastic chaos only this crew can create, and you've got another episode that somehow manages to be completely ridiculous while also reminding everyone it's okay to stay excited about the things you love. Whether you're here for celebrity-level steam engines, wildlife gone wild, nostalgic mall memories, or just another morning of organized nonsense, this episode delivers exactly what you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show—and probably several things you never saw coming. If you love a daily comedy show full of weird news, hilarious conversations, pop culture detours, and friends roasting each other while somehow stumbling into surprisingly wholesome moments, this episode belongs at the top of your playlist.

Donny Fandango set out with one goal: raise $53,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities...and then proceeded to absolutely crush it. The crew recaps the incredible Radiothon, the huge donations, the emotional moments, and—because this is The Rizzuto Show—the bizarre auction prizes everyone agreed to while Rizz was unconscious after wisdom tooth surgery. Speaking of surgery, Rizz shares the surprisingly abrupt experience of getting knocked out for his wisdom tooth extraction. No dramatic countdown. No floating through space. Just "What are your hobbies?" and instant blackout. The gang compares anesthesia stories, post-surgery meals, and why hydrocodone apparently turns Rizz into a man convinced invisible bugs are crawling on him. Lern makes her very first Facebook Marketplace purchase. What should have been a simple $35 weight bench somehow becomes an FBI-level covert operation involving porch pickups, Venmo timing, getaway driving, and apologizing to Ring doorbells. The crew debates Korean BBQ versus Brazilian steakhouses, discusses the strategy of "beating the house" at all-you-can-eat restaurants, admits to suffering from the legendary meat sweats, and somehow turns dipping sauces into a competitive sport. As if things weren't chaotic enough, Yellowstone provides one of the wildest viral videos of the week when an agitated bison launches a grandfather several feet into the air after a campsite encounter. The crew breaks down exactly what happened, why wildlife deserves way more personal space than tourists seem willing to give it, and why surviving a bison toss wasn't even the only animal-related headline making news Danny McBride is writing a brand-new G.I. Joe movie. That's enough to send every child of the '80s and '90s into a nostalgic spiral, so naturally the gang spends way too much time debating what made the original cartoons great, why the previous movies never quite landed, and whether nostalgia is actually making a comeback or if we're all just getting old. Chef Liz from Tenacious Eats rolls into the studio with a full Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles-themed dinner preview... and an actual Michelangelo joins the show. Suddenly we're talking Jim Henson costumes, pizza, arcade cabinets, Foot Clan hideouts, movie trivia, and enough food to make every listener immediately hungry. Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where Jay-Z shatters Yankee Stadium records with an unbelievable three-night concert event featuring an all-star lineup that somehow keeps getting bigger. Billy Corgan pitches a dream Smashing Pumpkins Sphere residency, The Rock refuses to give up on his Broadway dreams with Kevin Hart, and Hollywood keeps rebooting everything whether we asked for it or not. The gang also dives into blockbuster movie rumors, Batman casting speculation, Hunger Games returning to theaters, Michael Jackson's record-breaking biopic, American Horror Story returning to its witchy roots, and why Love Island somehow managed to hijack everyone's television. There are passionate debates about depressing movies, surprisingly heartfelt tributes to entertainment legends, and several moments where everyone completely loses the plot.

What happens when The Rizzuto Show tries to remember everything that's happened so far this year? Absolute chaos. The crew attempts a halfway-through-the-year quiz, and let's just say... history, sports, movies, award shows, and basically every major headline take a beating. Somehow everyone becomes confidently wrong while still arguing like they're experts, which is pretty much the perfect recipe for a daily comedy episode. Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where Jay-Z shatters Yankee Stadium records with an unbelievable three-night concert event featuring an all-star lineup that somehow keeps getting bigger. Billy Corgan pitches a dream Smashing Pumpkins Sphere residency, The Rock refuses to give up on his Broadway dreams with Kevin Hart, and Hollywood keeps rebooting everything whether we asked for it or not. The gang also dives into blockbuster movie rumors, Batman casting speculation, Hunger Games returning to theaters, Michael Jackson's record-breaking biopic, American Horror Story returning to its witchy roots, and why Love Island somehow managed to hijack everyone's television. There are passionate debates about depressing movies, surprisingly heartfelt tributes to entertainment legends, and several moments where everyone completely loses the plot. You'll also hear recommendations for an incredible revenge movie you probably haven't seen yet, reactions to new music releases, celebrity birthdays, pop culture nonsense, sports memories that may or may not be accurate, and enough sarcastic commentary to make your commute significantly more entertaining. As always, The Rizzuto Show manages to turn everyday headlines into complete insanity with quick jokes, ridiculous tangents, questionable facts, and the kind of conversations that only happen when friends who've worked together forever are allowed near microphones. Whether you're here for celebrity gossip, weird news, movie talk, sports disasters, or just want to laugh at grown adults confidently misremembering recent history, this daily comedy episode delivers exactly the kind of unpredictable fun you've come to expect. If you love hilarious conversations, pop culture commentary, entertainment gossip, celebrity news, and a funny morning show that never takes itself too seriously, you've found your people. Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your day. Share the episode with someone who also can't remember who won anything this year.

Some episodes have a theme. This one has approximately fourteen. The crew starts by diving headfirst into one of the biggest surprise entertainment stories we've heard in a while: Danny McBride is writing a brand-new G.I. Joe movie. That's enough to send every child of the '80s and '90s into a nostalgic spiral, so naturally the gang spends way too much time debating what made the original cartoons great, why the previous movies never quite landed, and whether nostalgia is actually making a comeback or if we're all just getting old. Then things somehow get even weirder. Chef Liz from Tenacious Eats rolls into the studio with a full Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles-themed dinner preview... and an actual Michelangelo joins the show. Suddenly we're talking Jim Henson costumes, pizza, arcade cabinets, Foot Clan hideouts, movie trivia, and enough food to make every listener immediately hungry. There are handmade pizzas, Japanese-inspired dishes, surprise menu items, beer pairings, cheesecake, pizza rolls, and enough delicious descriptions that someone is probably ordering lunch halfway through the episode. Of course, because this is The Rizzuto Show, absolutely none of these conversations stay on the rails for very long. The gang also wanders into Disney live-action remake debates, celebrity movie failures, action figures, arcade memories, childhood movie trauma, random impressions, and the kind of sarcastic arguments only longtime friends can have. Every tangent somehow creates three more tangents until nobody remembers how the conversation started. It's exactly the kind of beautiful disaster you've come to expect. If you're looking for a daily comedy podcast filled with pop culture commentary, hilarious stories, nostalgic movie talk, celebrity news, and friends making each other laugh, you've found it. This daily comedy podcast is packed with ridiculous conversations, unexpected guests, funny opinions, and enough random chaos to keep your commute entertaining. Whether you've been listening for years or you're jumping into The Rizzuto Show for the first time, this daily comedy podcast proves once again that no topic is too small to become a twenty-minute debate once this crew gets involved. So grab some pizza, avoid the Foot Clan, and enjoy another completely unhinged morning with The Rizzuto Show.

Donny Fandango set out with one goal: raise $53,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities...and then proceeded to absolutely crush it. The crew recaps the incredible Radiothon, the huge donations, the emotional moments, and—because this is The Rizzuto Show—the bizarre auction prizes everyone agreed to while Rizz was unconscious after wisdom tooth surgery. Apparently getting anesthesia is basically giving your coworkers power of attorney. Rizz returns to discover he's now the proud future owner of a very...unique...piece of jewelry, Melissa bought herself two hours in studio, and Donny narrowly escaped getting one of the weirdest tattoos imaginable. Charity wins, dignity loses. Everybody's happy. Speaking of surgery, Rizz shares the surprisingly abrupt experience of getting knocked out for his wisdom tooth extraction. No dramatic countdown. No floating through space. Just "What are your hobbies?" and instant blackout. The gang compares anesthesia stories, post-surgery meals, and why hydrocodone apparently turns Rizz into a man convinced invisible bugs are crawling on him. Meanwhile, Moon continues adding to his collection of "Craigslist Could Have Been My Last Day On Earth" stories, while Lern makes her very first Facebook Marketplace purchase. What should have been a simple $35 weight bench somehow becomes an FBI-level covert operation involving porch pickups, Venmo timing, getaway driving, and apologizing to Ring doorbells. Then everyone gets hungry. The crew debates Korean BBQ versus Brazilian steakhouses, discusses the strategy of "beating the house" at all-you-can-eat restaurants, admits to suffering from the legendary meat sweats, and somehow turns dipping sauces into a competitive sport. As if things weren't chaotic enough, Yellowstone provides one of the wildest viral videos of the week when an agitated bison launches a grandfather several feet into the air after a campsite encounter. The crew breaks down exactly what happened, why wildlife deserves way more personal space than tourists seem willing to give it, and why surviving a bison toss wasn't even the only animal-related headline making news. They also dive into the Running of the Bulls, debate whether life insurance covers intentionally sprinting in front of enormous angry animals, and discover that some adventures may be better left to someone else's vacation photos. It's another morning full of ridiculous conversations, genuine laughs, questionable life decisions, and proof that no matter how carefully you plan your day, someone is probably about to get launched by wildlife. If you're looking for your next daily comedy podcast, welcome home. The daily comedy podcast you know and love is back with another completely normal day that immediately goes off the rails.

When Rizz gets sidelined with swollen cheeks and missing wisdom teeth, someone has to steer the ship...and this time it's Donny Fandango. What follows is exactly the kind of controlled chaos you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show, except nobody's actually sure who's in charge. The crew kicks off another incredible RadioThon benefiting Ronald McDonald House Charities of St. Louis while juggling song requests, business shout-outs, outrageous donation incentives, and the now-infamous "Big Dog" sounders that slowly drive everyone in the studio toward complete insanity. Every new donation means another round of audio torture, and somehow everyone keeps asking for more. Donny shares his surprisingly emotional quest for an Egg McMuffin before sunrise, the crew debates whether getting knocked out during dental surgery is worth the money, and everyone relives some absolutely horrifying dentist stories that might make you cancel your next appointment. Moon shares an unbelievable backstage story involving Tool drummer Danny Carey that nearly ended with someone's tour manager becoming a permanent stage decoration, while the gang also celebrates legendary rock bands, debates AC/DC eras, laughs through Conway Twitty requests, and somehow manages to keep an entire RadioThon moving while Riz recovers at home looking like an angry chipmunk. Along the way you'll hear incredible generosity from listeners supporting Ronald McDonald House Charities, hilarious business plugs, ridiculous inside jokes, and the kind of spontaneous moments that make this daily comedy podcast feel like hanging out with your funniest friends every morning. Whether you're here for the music stories, the Big Dog madness, the charity event, or simply to hear Donny survive one of the weirdest mornings in show history, this episode delivers nonstop laughs with a whole lot of heart.

Moon returns from Alabama after spending quality family time driving a boat like every dad whose only mission is launching kids off an inflatable tube at unsafe-but-technically-safe speeds. The gang debates whether tubing is childhood fun or simply a cleverly disguised upper-body endurance test that ends with someone losing a shoulder. Then the news takes a hard left. A St. Louis man is arrested... again... for throwing rocks off an overpass. Naturally, the conversation somehow turns into train hopping, small-town childhood crimes, and whether this guy secretly missed his calling as a major league pitcher. Just when you think we've hit peak weird... A man cuts off his own anatomy, sets it on fire, accidentally burns down a garage, and somehow gets arrested for arson. We wish we were making that sentence up. If that isn't enough nightmare fuel, the crew reacts to one of the wildest aviation stories ever: a flight instructor who simply opens the door mid-flight, tells his student "keep moving forward," and jumps out of the airplane. The student still lands safely because apparently she's the calmest human alive. We also revisit the unbelievable Tesla cliff case where an entire family survived a 300-foot plunge, discuss bizarre Florida drug smuggling excuses, debate irrational fears of tiny airplanes, celebrate another official case of Rafe's famous "butthole lightning," and somehow manage to squeeze in movie nostalgia, Culkin conspiracy theories, food news, and enough sarcasm to power St. Louis for a week. A baby fox whose face looks so much like Shaggy 2 Dope that Insane Clown Posse actually came to meet it. That somehow launches the crew into debating whether they should road-trip to this year's Gathering of the Juggalos in Missouri... where they immediately learn one important survival tip: The crew debates camping versus hotels, Clownvis as the official Juggalo ambassador, RV road trips, and whether anyone could profit from wearing latex gloves and collecting contaminated cash. Honestly? It somehow becomes one of the most educational segments we've ever done. We rank the whitest phrases ever spoken ("News flash, buddy." "Get a load of this guy." "Ready Freddy."), dive into celebrity news featuring Bon Jovi's return to the stage, Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley, Taylor Swift wedding conspiracy theories that somehow become a thousand-dollar bet, Luke Wilson becoming a first-time dad at 54, Shark Tank's newest guest sharks, Dune Part Three hype, Netflix's upcoming fried chicken documentary, MK Ultra documentaries, the worst movies ever made, and the latest Emmy nominations. The gang also pays tribute to Bonnie Tyler, debates whether Andie MacDowell is "stunning" or merely "a smoke show," and somehow finds time to invent another ridiculous punishment involving dressing like television characters for an entire week.

If you've ever wondered how a birthday celebration could spiral into a full-blown discussion about Gathering of the Juggalos etiquette, congratulations—you've found your people. Today's daily podcast begins with one of the greatest animal stories ever told: a baby fox whose face looks so much like Shaggy 2 Dope that Insane Clown Posse actually came to meet it. That somehow launches the crew into debating whether they should road-trip to this year's Gathering of the Juggalos in Missouri... where they immediately learn one important survival tip: Never. Ever. Pick up a dollar bill. Because it might be a Poop Dollar. Yes, that's apparently a real thing. The crew debates camping versus hotels, Clownvis as the official Juggalo ambassador, RV road trips, and whether anyone could profit from wearing latex gloves and collecting contaminated cash. Honestly? It somehow becomes one of the most educational segments we've ever done. Then things only get weirder. We rank the whitest phrases ever spoken ("News flash, buddy." "Get a load of this guy." "Ready Freddy."), dive into celebrity news featuring Bon Jovi's return to the stage, Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley, Taylor Swift wedding conspiracy theories that somehow become a thousand-dollar bet, Luke Wilson becoming a first-time dad at 54, Shark Tank's newest guest sharks, Dune Part Three hype, Netflix's upcoming fried chicken documentary, MK Ultra documentaries, the worst movies ever made, and the latest Emmy nominations. The gang also pays tribute to Bonnie Tyler, debates whether Andie MacDowell is "stunning" or merely "a smoke show," and somehow finds time to invent another ridiculous punishment involving dressing like television characters for an entire week. As always, nobody stays on topic for very long—and that's exactly why this daily podcast exists. If you enjoy sarcastic conversations, ridiculous news, pop culture commentary, celebrity gossip, and the kind of comedy that only happens when a group of friends accidentally encourages each other to make terrible decisions, this episode has everything you could possibly want.

There are normal Thursday shows... Then there's whatever this was. Moon returns from Alabama after spending quality family time driving a boat like every dad whose only mission is launching kids off an inflatable tube at unsafe-but-technically-safe speeds. The gang debates whether tubing is childhood fun or simply a cleverly disguised upper-body endurance test that ends with someone losing a shoulder. Then the news takes a hard left. A St. Louis man is arrested... again... for throwing rocks off an overpass. Naturally, the conversation somehow turns into train hopping, small-town childhood crimes, and whether this guy secretly missed his calling as a major league pitcher. Just when you think we've hit peak weird... A man cuts off his own anatomy, sets it on fire, accidentally burns down a garage, and somehow gets arrested for arson. We wish we were making that sentence up. If that isn't enough nightmare fuel, the crew reacts to one of the wildest aviation stories ever: a flight instructor who simply opens the door mid-flight, tells his student "keep moving forward," and jumps out of the airplane. The student still lands safely because apparently she's the calmest human alive.

It's the kind of episode where every new story somehow becomes even more unbelievable than the last—which, honestly, is exactly how we like our mornings.

Happy Hump Day! There are celebrity weddings... there are relationship disasters... and then there are mornings where The Rizzuto Show somehow manages to cram both into one completely ridiculous daily comedy show. Happy Hump Day! The gang turns an ordinary Wednesday into two-and-a-half hours of relationship debates, questionable life choices, bizarre internet conspiracies, celebrity chaos, weird news, and enough sarcastic commentary to make your therapist schedule a follow-up appointment. Rizz kicks things off by preparing for wisdom tooth surgery while the crew campaigns to revive one of the show's most legendary Radiothon traditions. Naturally, that conversation immediately spirals into fundraising, public roasting, and debating exactly how much money it would take to humiliate someone for a good cause. Technology doesn't fare much better. Rizz accidentally ignores his wife thanks to his Meta smart glasses, proving that answering a phone call during a romantic walk is a surprisingly effective way to lose Husband of the Year honors. That launches a conversation about wearable tech, modern relationships, and whether our gadgets are helping us stay connected—or just creating brand-new ways to get into trouble. Relationship Court officially returns with listener dilemmas involving blended families, difficult exes, parenting, teenage ultimatums, postpartum anxiety, expensive concert tickets, and whether friends are actually obligated to sacrifice their own plans when someone else's night takes an emotional turn. As always, everyone has an opinion, nobody agrees, and somebody inevitably gets roasted. Of course, no morning would be complete without one of the internet's greatest relationship debates. A woman considers ending her relationship because her boyfriend's obsession with potato chips has completely taken over his life. Three bags a day. Crumbs everywhere. Finger dust. Hidden snack stashes. McDonald's instead of local cuisine while traveling overseas. Somehow this turns into one of the funniest—and weirdly most divisive—conversations of the day. Meanwhile, Rafe unveils a brand-new game, Swifty or Shifty, challenging everyone to separate real Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding stories from completely fabricated internet nonsense. Before long, the crew is debating celebrity wedding conspiracies, impossible reception menus, sports legends, billionaire wedding budgets, and whether chicken nuggets topped with caviar should ever exist. Confidence is mandatory. Accuracy is optional. The celebrity chaos keeps rolling as the gang reacts to one of the most unintentionally hilarious concert moments ever, when Paul Stanley delivers an emotional tribute before immediately launching into one of KISS's most awkward song transitions imaginable. From there, the conversation bounces into Green Day's latest music, Sammy Hagar reuniting with Jason Bonham, David Lee Roth's unforgettable Spanish-language album, Harold & Kumar 4, Britney Spears' upcoming biopic, Ali G's return, Jeopardy! hiring clue writers, and The Rock's continued quest to prove he's a dramatic actor. Then it's time for a healthy dose of gaming nostalgia. The crew debates Collider's greatest video games of all time, argues over GoldenEye, Grand Theft Auto, Halo, Pac-Man, Doom, and whether today's players will ever truly own their games again as PlayStation continues moving toward a digital-only future. As if things couldn't get stranger, a Missouri man gets arrested while proudly wearing the promotional T-shirt from the very bail bonds company that had recently gotten him out of jail. That unbelievable mugshot sparks one of the day's most unexpectedly fascinating conversations as the crew dives into how bail bonds, bounty hunters, collateral, and the legal system actually work—complete with Rafe's unforgettable Current River stories and a reminder that showing up for court is generally considered a good idea. Along the way you'll hear conversations about smart glasses, travel compatibility, embarrassing eating habits, floating Missouri rivers, celebrity gossip, rock history, video game nostalgia, weird news, family dynamics, movie trivia, pop culture, listener dilemmas, and plenty of classic Rizz Show tangents where nobody remembers how the conversation started—but everyone is glad it happened anyway. Whether you're here for ridiculous listener stories, celebrity gossip, bizarre internet theories, hilarious fails, or just listening to friends derail every topic imaginable, this daily comedy show delivers exactly the unpredictable chaos you've come to expect from The Rizzuto Show. Thanks for hanging out with us. If today's episode taught us anything, it's that relationships are complicated, potato chips are apparently controversial, celebrity wedding conspiracies have officially gone too far, and maybe don't wear your bail bonds T-shirt for your next mugshot. If you laughed, argued with your speakers, immediately Googled Paul Stanley's awkward stage banter, or started questioning your own snack habits, mission accomplished.

There are celebrity weddings... There are over-the-top celebrity weddings... And then there's whatever the heck happened in today's episode. The gang dives headfirst into the internet's latest obsession with a completely unhinged conspiracy theory surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding. Apparently it wasn't just a wedding—it was an eldritch ritual to summon an ancient cosmic deity while Jared Leto prepared to become the real-life Morbius. Sure. Makes perfect sense. That's how mornings start around here. Once everyone agrees that absolutely none of this sounds impossible, Rafe introduces a brand-new game that immediately exposes just how much celebrity wedding trivia everyone somehow knows. Is the Empire State Building really lighting up for the wedding? Did Adam Sandler write a song? Were chicken nuggets topped with caviar? Did Taylor sing her vows? Who leaked wedding secrets? How many Grammy Awards were secretly wandering around the reception? And perhaps the biggest mystery of all...why does King Scott know so much about Taylor Swift? The competition gets way more intense than anyone expected as everyone argues through true-or-false questions that become increasingly ridiculous while somehow remaining just believable enough to fool the room. Every answer turns into another excuse to roast billionaires, celebrity culture, impossible wedding budgets, elaborate menus, sports legends, and anyone willing to admit they've been following celebrity news a little too closely. Expect fake facts, real laughs, terrible strategy, conspiracy theories that somehow sound convincing, and enough sarcastic commentary to make every Swiftie slightly uncomfortable—but hopefully still entertained. If you've ever wondered what happens when a comedy podcast gives a room full of sarcastic morning radio hosts a celebrity trivia game based almost entirely on internet insanity, this is exactly that. Spoiler alert: somebody unexpectedly becomes the resident Swift expert, someone else keeps overthinking every question, and everyone leaves wondering whether chicken nuggets and caviar actually belong together. It's another completely unnecessary deep dive into pop culture chaos that somehow becomes one of the funniest competitions we've played. Whether you're here for celebrity gossip, sports references, bizarre internet theories, or simply watching adults confidently answer questions they absolutely don't know, this comedy podcast delivers exactly the kind of beautiful disaster you've come to expect. Because around here, facts are optional, confidence is mandatory, and somehow that's what makes this comedy podcast work.

If you've ever wondered how one conversation can bounce from Taylor Swift wedding conspiracies to Paul Stanley's unbelievably awkward stage banter before somehow landing on PlayStation drama and David Lee Roth singing in Spanish... congratulations. You've found your people. Today's comedy podcast starts with Rafe unveiling a brand-new game, Swifty or Shifty, to determine who actually knows what's real—and what's internet nonsense—about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding saga. The crew immediately dives back into the ongoing bet over whether the wedding at Madison Square Garden actually counts, because no Rizz Show argument is ever allowed to end peacefully. Then the internet delivers one of the funniest clips imaginable: Paul Stanley honoring the victims of the Manchester bombing... before instantly asking the crowd, "How many girls here like to get licked?" as KISS launches into Lick It Up. The gang completely loses it trying to imagine a worse song transition. From there it's full-speed chaos. The crew debates Collider's list of the greatest video games ever made, argues whether GoldenEye, Grand Theft Auto, Halo, Pac-Man, and Doom got robbed, and discusses Sony's plan to move future PlayStation releases to digital-only media. Does anyone actually own their games anymore? Is everything becoming another subscription? The paranoia is real. In Crap on Celebrities: • Green Day releases new music. • Taylor Swift wedding documentary rumors get shut down. • Sammy Hagar reunites with Jason Bonham. • David Lee Roth's legendary (and very questionable) Spanish-language album gets a birthday. • Jeopardy! is hiring clue writers for up to $178,000. • Ali G returns. • Harold & Kumar 4 is officially happening. • Britney Spears' biopic finds its writer. • The Rock keeps chasing dramatic movie roles. • The gang reminisces about movies filmed in St. Louis. Plus birthdays, Nepo Baby jokes, video game nostalgia, rock history, movie trivia, celebrity gossip, and the kind of sarcastic conversations that somehow make perfect sense after about three cups of coffee. Whether you're here for celebrity chaos, weird news, pop culture arguments, or just listening to friends derail every topic imaginable, this comedy podcast delivers another completely ridiculous morning with The Rizzuto Show. If you laughed, argued with your speakers, or immediately looked up that Paul Stanley clip... mission accomplished.

Happy Hump Day! The gang somehow turns an ordinary Wednesday into two-and-a-half hours of relationship debates, questionable life choices, technology gone wrong, and enough sarcastic commentary to make your therapist schedule a follow-up appointment. Rizz kicks things off by preparing for wisdom tooth surgery while the crew campaigns to bring back one of the show's most legendary traditions during the upcoming Radiothon. That quickly spirals into stories about rage, fundraising, and just how much money it might take to convince someone to publicly roast the entire building. Then things get personal when Rizz accidentally ignores his wife thanks to his Meta smart glasses. Turns out answering a phone call in the middle of a romantic walk isn't exactly husband of the year material. The crew dives into whether wearable tech is making us more connected—or just better at accidentally getting ourselves into trouble. Relationship Court is officially back in session as the show tackles one impossible situation after another. Is it fair to walk away from someone because their teenage daughter refuses to accept the relationship? Are ultimatums ever a good idea? The crew debates blended families, difficult exes, parenting, and whether some problems simply can't be fixed. As if that wasn't enough, another internet relationship story sends everyone into hysterics when a woman considers dumping her boyfriend...because of his absolutely unhinged obsession with potato chips. Three bags a day. Crumbs everywhere. McDonald's instead of local cuisine on an international vacation. Finger dust. Bag popping. Hidden snack stashes. Somehow this becomes one of the funniest—and surprisingly most divisive—conversations of the morning. The chaos keeps rolling with another listener dilemma involving a Megan Moroney concert, postpartum anxiety, and whether friends are obligated to abandon expensive tickets when someone's night takes an emotional turn. The opinions are passionate, the sarcasm is plentiful, and nobody escapes without getting roasted at least once. Later, the crew stumbles across one of the greatest mugshots ever taken after a Missouri man is arrested while proudly wearing the promotional T-shirt from the very bail bonds company that had recently gotten him out of jail. That bizarre story launches an unexpectedly fascinating deep dive into how bail bonds, bounty hunters, collateral, and the entire system actually works—complete with Rafe's unforgettable stories from floating the Current River and learning firsthand why you always show up for court in Van Buren. Along the way you'll hear conversations about travel compatibility, vacation red flags, embarrassing eating habits, smart glasses, family dynamics, floating rivers in Missouri, classic Rizz Show tangents, and plenty of moments where the crew completely forgets how they got onto the current topic in the first place. It's exactly the kind of unpredictable nonsense you've come to expect from your favorite daily comedy show—real conversations, ridiculous news, and just enough life advice to accidentally help someone while making everyone else laugh. Thanks for hanging out with us. If today's episode taught us anything, it's that relationships are complicated, chips are apparently controversial, and maybe don't wear your bail bonds T-shirt for your next mugshot.

Some mornings you expect headlines. Other mornings you discover there's an underground criminal empire stealing used fryer grease, someone insists bedazzled jeans are making a comeback, billionaires are wearing air-conditioned inflatable suits, and Rizz has created an entirely unofficial list of ages where society should lovingly tell you to knock it off. Welcome to another daily comedy show from The Rizzuto Show. We kick things off close to home with St. Louis news, including Cyberg's Market Street closing after decades downtown, overnight vehicle break-ins, and why leaving valuables—or firearms—in your car is a spectacularly bad idea. Naturally, the conversation immediately derails into fake manual transmissions to confuse thieves, mounted muskets, Shark Tank-worthy anti-theft inventions, and enough terrible ideas to make insurance companies nervous. Then things get wonderfully ridiculous as the crew dives into one of the strangest crime stories imaginable: an organized multi-million-dollar operation built around stealing used restaurant grease. Between fake invoices, undercover grease pickups, and criminals wearing reflective safety vests to blend in, yesterday's french fries somehow become today's organized crime thriller. Fashion isn't safe either. Lern believes rhinestones are back. Rafe embraces the return of early-2000s chaos. Rizz refuses to believe grown adults are voluntarily bedazzling their back pockets again. Before long the conversation spirals into Ed Hardy memories, JNCO jeans, Von Dutch hats, whale tails, cowboy fashion, and the universal question nobody asked: did any of this actually look good the first time? Speaking of questionable decisions, the crew revisits tech millionaire Bryan Johnson after news surrounding his health journey, leading to a hilarious debate about supplements, biohacking, sleep tracking, anti-aging obsessions, and whether spending every waking minute trying not to age actually counts as living. As if that weren't enough, Rizz unveils his completely unscientific "Tell the Truth Day" list of social expiration dates. At what age should backwards hats retire? Is there a point where everyone has to stop calling people "bro?" When should staying out until sunrise become a memory instead of a plan? Everyone disagrees, listeners yell back at their radios, and absolutely nothing gets settled. Meanwhile, congratulations are officially in order for Learn, who somehow found extra hours in the day by splitting time between St. Louis and Chicago. She's now racing from one radio show to another, surviving almost entirely on determination, gas station coffee, and what we're convinced is teleportation. Then comes one of the greatest rabbit holes of the morning. A casual conversation about Skid Row somehow transforms into an in-depth legal defense of Ricky from "18 and Life." Was the sentence fair? Did his attorney fail him? Could manslaughter have changed everything? Before long the crew is pitching an entire sequel where Ricky is released decades later and has to navigate smartphones, social media, and modern life. Sebastian Bach, our lawyers would like royalties if this ever happens. The nostalgia train keeps rolling with conversations about classic rock, Quiet Riot, Great White, unforgettable concerts, Missouri's connection to sliced bread, legendary movies every younger generation needs to watch, and passionate debates over which films absolutely deserve a spot on everyone's must-watch list. The celebrity world isn't spared either during another packed Crap on Celebrities featuring music news, Hollywood headlines, bizarre entertainment stories, AI discussions, and enough pop culture commentary to keep everyone arguing long after the show ends. And because no episode is complete without complete nonsense, we wrap things up debating billionaire air-conditioned tracksuits straight out of Paris before diving into Real or Fake Fireworks. Contestants attempt to identify whether outrageous names are actual fireworks or something Rafe invented after way too much caffeine. Somehow the real products end up sounding even more ridiculous than the fake ones. Whether you're listening on your morning commute, pretending to answer emails, hiding from responsibilities, or simply looking for a reason to laugh, thanks for making us part of your day. Every ridiculous tangent, terrible idea, nostalgic debate, celebrity headline, weird news story, and accidental moment of wisdom is why this daily comedy show continues to be the highlight of our mornings. If you laughed, argued with Rizz, defended rhinestone jeans, questioned the value of stolen fryer grease, or started wondering whether "Neighbor Hater" is actually a real firework, congratulations—you've experienced another daily comedy show exactly the way it was intended.

If you ever wondered what happens when billionaires decide regular air conditioning just isn't dramatic enough anymore... welcome to today's episode. The gang starts by diving into the latest luxury trend making its way out of Paris: inflatable, air-conditioned tracksuits. Because apparently owning a mansion, a yacht, and an indoor snow room isn't enough anymore. Why sweat like the rest of us when you can look like the Michelin Man while staying frosty? The crew debates whether these ridiculous designer suits are actually genius or just another way for rich people to spend money on problems the rest of us solve with a box fan. Then things take a sharp turn into one of the most hilariously frustrating games we've played in a while: Real or Fake Fireworks. Contestants try to figure out whether names like "Laser Kitties," "Pizza Pocalypse," "Neighbor Hater," "Sparkle Fart," and "Psycho Peacock" are actual fireworks you can buy... or something Rafe made up after five cups of coffee. Spoiler alert: everyone quickly learns that the real fireworks manufacturers are somehow weirder than we are. Between terrible guesses, lifelines that occasionally help (and occasionally don't), Boston accents that completely fall apart, nonstop roasting of contestants, and the crew laughing at names that absolutely should not exist, today's daily comedy podcast proves once again that reality is almost always funnier than fiction. If you've ever wandered through a fireworks tent thinking, "There's no way that's a real product," this episode is for you. You'll also discover why putting air conditioning inside your clothes may be the future... even if it makes you look like Violet Beauregarde after the blueberry incident. Whether you're here for weird news, pop culture commentary, bizarre luxury trends, hilarious games, or just need a reason to laugh through another hot summer day, we've got you covered. Thanks for hanging out with The Rizzuto Show—where every conversation somehow spirals into complete nonsense, and honestly, we wouldn't have it any other way. If you laughed, share the episode with someone who still has leftover fireworks hidden in their garage.

Congratulations are officially in order... because Lern somehow found extra hours in the day that the rest of us definitely don't have. She's now pulling double duty between St. Louis and Chicago, finishing one radio show, sprinting to her car, driving five hours north, hosting another show until midnight, and somehow making it back to the studio before the next morning. At this point we're convinced she's either invented teleportation or secretly runs on nothing but gas station coffee and spite. The gang celebrates the new opportunity while immediately roasting her for accidentally becoming "Chicago's newest native" overnight. Then things take the sharpest left turn imaginable. A simple conversation about Skid Row turns into what may be the most passionate legal defense of a fictional character ever attempted on morning radio. Did Ricky from "18 and Life" actually receive a fair sentence? Did his lawyer completely fail him? Could manslaughter have knocked years off his sentence? Before long, the crew is pitching an entire sequel where Ricky is finally released decades later, discovers smartphones, struggles with modern life, and tries to reintegrate into society. Sebastian Bach... if you're listening... we've basically written your next album. Of course, that's only the beginning. The gang dives into rock history, legendary concerts, Sebastian Bach's incredible hair, Quiet Riot, Great White, classic metal memories, and why moms somehow approved of Skid Row while other bands got thrown straight into the trash. Later, the crew celebrates Missouri's connection to sliced bread, debates whether "best thing since sliced bread" replaced an even older saying, revisits classic pop culture moments, and rolls through another packed edition of Crap on Celebrities featuring Metallica's emotional Ozzy tribute, Ella Langley's historic chart run, SZA opening up about her autism diagnosis, Whoopi Goldberg getting stranded by a volcano, Danny Trejo's unbelievable Charles Manson story, and the future of AI actors in Hollywood. Then things get wonderfully nostalgic as everyone argues over which movies every younger generation absolutely has to watch. From action classics to sci-fi masterpieces to childhood favorites, expect plenty of passionate disagreements and a few films that definitely deserved more love than they got. Finally, the show wraps exactly the way you'd expect... with Crappy Birthdays, some hilariously questionable movie titles, and a game of Real or Fake Fireworks using the bizarre names found on leftover Fourth of July fireworks. Because nothing says responsible broadcasting quite like trying to determine whether "Exploding Mega Whatever" is an actual consumer product. It's another completely unpredictable comedy podcast packed with music nostalgia, pop culture commentary, ridiculous hypotheticals, listener laughs, celebrity updates, and the kind of conversations that only happen when nobody in the room thinks, "Maybe we should move on." Whether you're here for the rock stories, the celebrity gossip, the debates over old movies, or simply to hear adults spend entirely too much time defending a fictional prison sentence from a 1980s song, this comedy podcast delivers exactly the kind of daily chaos you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show.

Some mornings you wake up expecting coffee and headlines. Other mornings you discover there's an underground criminal empire built around stealing used fryer grease, somebody is trying to convince the world that rhinestone jeans are cool again, and Rizz has created an entirely unofficial list of ages when society should politely ask you to stop doing certain things. Welcome to another daily comedy show. This episode starts close to home as the crew talks about local St. Louis news, including Cyberg's Market Street closing after decades downtown, a rash of overnight vehicle break-ins, and why leaving valuables—or firearms—in your car is probably a terrible idea. Naturally, that serious conversation immediately derails into fake stick shifts designed to confuse thieves, mounted muskets, car guns, and inventions that definitely belong on Shark Tank. Then things somehow get even weirder. The crew dives into one of the strangest federal crime stories imaginable: a multi-million-dollar operation involving stolen restaurant grease. Yes... used cooking oil. Apparently yesterday's french fries can become today's organized crime. Between fake paperwork, undercover grease deals, and criminals wearing safety vests to look legitimate, it's almost impressive... almost. Fashion doesn't escape the roast either. Is America really entering another bedazzled era? Are Ed Hardy vibes back? Are JNCO jeans making another run? Lern believes the sparkle has returned, Rafe embraces the chaos, and Rizz refuses to accept that grown men are voluntarily decorating their back pockets with rhinestones. The debate spirals into cowboy fashion, Von Dutch hats, whale tails, and whether anyone should willingly relive the early 2000s. Speaking of questionable life choices... The gang revisits Bryan Johnson—the tech millionaire spending millions every year attempting to reverse aging—after news of his autoimmune diagnosis. The conversation turns into a hilarious debate over supplements, youth fighting, biohacking, overnight health tracking, and whether spending your entire life trying not to age actually counts as living. As if that weren't enough, Rizz unveils his completely scientific (not at all scientific) "Tell the Truth Day" list of socially acceptable expiration dates. At what age should you stop calling everyone "bro?" When should backwards hats retire? Is there an age limit for staying out until sunrise? The crew argues every single rule while listeners undoubtedly yell back at their speakers. Throw in celebrity obsession, social media insanity, relationship debates, bizarre inventions, random tangents, plenty of St. Louis flavor, and enough sarcastic commentary to make your coworkers question why you're laughing at your desk, and you've got another unforgettable morning with The Rizzuto Show. Whether you're listening on the drive to work, pretending to work, or actively avoiding responsibility altogether, thanks for making us part of your day. This daily comedy show exists because of listeners who appreciate ridiculous conversations, terrible ideas, and the occasional accidental moment of wisdom hiding beneath all the nonsense. If you laughed, argued with Rizz, defended bedazzled jeans, or immediately started wondering how much used fryer grease is worth, congratulations—you've officially experienced another daily comedy show the way it was intended.

One minute you're buying tickets to see a massive international soccer match. The next minute you're staring at an $8,100 charge for a parking pass and wondering if your car now comes with its own butler. That's where this episode starts, and somehow things only get weirder from there. The crew breaks down one of the wildest ticketing stories we've ever seen after a Long Island mom accidentally purchased an outrageously expensive parking pass while trying to score seats for a big match. The conversation quickly spirals into the state of modern ticket prices, resale madness, and why seeing your favorite artist live now requires either a second mortgage or a suspiciously successful cryptocurrency portfolio. Meanwhile, the gang discovers a troubling truth about adulthood: none of us seem capable of locating important documents. Birth certificates are missing. Diplomas have vanished. Social Security cards are apparently living in another dimension. If civilization depended on us proving we graduated high school, humanity might be finished. Then there's King Scott. What should have been a sweet and memorable gender reveal somehow becomes a hilarious lesson in why live radio and carefully planned family moments don't always cooperate. The result is equal parts heartwarming, awkward, and exactly the kind of unpredictable mess listeners have come to expect. Rafe delivers another unforgettable E-Memorium, the crew debates life, responsibility, and whether anyone on the show can legally prove they exist, and somehow every conversation finds a way to become funnier than the last. This daily comedy show has everything: outrageous news stories, parenting debates, accidental financial disasters, and enough sarcasm to power the electrical grid. Whether you're listening on the drive to work, hiding from your responsibilities, or trying to avoid buying an $8,100 parking pass yourself, this episode delivers the laughs. The crew also dives into the economics of concerts, the changing world of live entertainment, and why families are increasingly forced to choose between making memories and protecting their budgets. Along the way you'll hear stories about dream vacations, listener reactions, and the kind of brutally honest conversations that make the show feel like hanging out with your funniest friends.

Somehow we’ve already reached the point where the conversation spirals from Steven Spielberg’s new alien movie into whether Lear’s digestive system could accidentally start an interplanetary war. Just another totally normal morning. The gang kicks things off with a packed weekend preview, including Lear’s big Pageant event, Moon’s soccer watch party in Illinois, and the upcoming Night at the Rizzlies. Then things take a sharp left turn into the great extraterrestrial debate after discussion of Spielberg’s latest sci-fi blockbuster sparks a surprisingly deep conversation about intelligent life beyond Earth. Do aliens exist? Are they already here? Is Earth basically the North Sentinel Island of the galaxy? Could heaven secretly be a spaceship? These are apparently the questions that happen when you give a radio show access to microphones before coffee fully kicks in. The crew dives into theories ranging from religion and simulation concepts to alien overlords, government coverups, and whether any of us would voluntarily board a mysterious spacecraft in the middle of nowhere. Some members of the show are ready to leave Earth immediately. Others have follow-up questions about bathrooms. There’s also a healthy amount of celebrity and entertainment chaos. Learn breaks down the new Sublime album featuring Jakob Nowell, Fleetwood Mac’s upgraded greatest-hits collection, Motley Crue’s theatrical return, Sammy Hagar’s upcoming tour, and Larry David’s newest HBO project. Along the way, the gang somehow turns a discussion about classic rock into a deep dive on band members dating each other, divorcing each other, and then somehow continuing to make hit records together. The movie conversation keeps rolling with discussions about Spielberg’s return to alien storytelling, the highest-rated films of the last 25 years, Christopher Nolan’s domination of IMDb rankings, and why Whiplash remains one of the most stressful movies ever made. It’s the kind of daily comedy show episode that starts with local events and ends with humanity questioning its place in the universe. If you enjoy pop culture commentary, weird news, celebrity gossip, classic rock debates, science-fiction rabbit holes, and a daily comedy show that never stays on topic for more than three minutes, Episode 200 delivers exactly the kind of beautiful disaster you’d expect from The Rizzuto Show.

It's another unforgettable edition of The Rizzuto Show, where even birthdays aren't safe from the crew's sarcasm. Today's celebration includes some surprisingly big milestone birthdays as the gang runs through names like Sylvester Stallone, George W. Bush, Burt Ward, and the Dalai Lama before taking the show's signature hard left turn into everyone's favorite questionable tradition: the legendary Porno Birthday. This daily comedy segment has everything longtime listeners expect—bad puns, even worse fake movie titles, nonstop laughter, and the kind of humor that somehow gets even funnier because nobody in the room can keep a straight face. Tawny Lee gets the birthday spotlight while the crew rattles off an absolutely ridiculous collection of fake film titles that proves once again no one commits harder to a dumb joke than The Rizzuto Show. Whether you've been listening for years or you're discovering the show for the first time, this clip is classic Rizz: quick laughs, unexpected turns, celebrity birthdays, and just enough chaos to make your commute a little less painful. If you enjoy sarcastic humor, pop culture, celebrity news, and ridiculous morning radio moments, you're in the right place. This daily comedy favorite is packed with the spontaneous banter and running jokes that have made The Rizzuto Show a St. Louis staple.

Today’s episode starts exactly where every responsible adult conversation should: arguing about soap. Not just any soap—man soap. The gang dives headfirst into a surprisingly passionate debate about Dr. Squatch, exfoliating gravel bars, suspiciously delicious-sounding soap scents, and whether smelling aggressively clean is actually a good thing. Somehow, this spirals into discussions about farmer's market soap, Bigfoot marketing, and the lengths men will go to avoid using the word "exfoliate." Then things get serious... sort of. A listener writes in with a family dilemma after her boyfriend receives an unexpected work bonus. Should they save the money for their future, start a college fund, or take their five-year-old to Disney World right now? The crew debates memories versus money, experiences versus savings accounts, and whether a five-year-old is even going to remember spending thousands of dollars chasing Mickey Mouse around Florida. The results? Surprisingly thoughtful advice mixed with the usual chaos. Speaking of questionable life decisions, the crew reacts to the wild story of a family stranded 120 feet in the air on the SkyScreamer ride at Six Flags St. Louis. Three hours. A storm rolling in. Zero chance Moon would ever get on that ride again. The gang breaks down the rescue operation, amusement park nightmares, and somehow ends up discussing roller coaster accidents, rescue blankets, and surviving things that absolutely sound unsurvivable. As if that wasn't enough, social media's latest trend enters the chat: Tan Maxxing. Yes, apparently people are intentionally chasing the deepest tan possible while documenting every minute of it online. The crew dives into tanning bed memories, spray tan horror stories, suspicious tanning lotions, and revisits one of the most legendary moments in Rizz history: the time Rizz spray-tanned himself into another dimension. You'll also hear stories about Hot or Not ratings from the early internet days, bizarre beauty trends, celebrity-level tanning mistakes, window-seat radiation fears, Six Flags identity crises, and enough random side quests to make GPS navigation give up entirely. This episode is a perfect example of why this daily comedy show somehow survives every day despite itself. One minute we're discussing family finances, the next we're debating whether Six Flags could successfully pretend to be Disney World for a five-year-old. Logic is optional. Laughs are mandatory. If you love a daily comedy show filled with ridiculous stories, unexpected debates, and a group of friends who can turn literally any topic into a disaster, this episode delivers.

Kevin Nealon stopped by to say Happy 250th Birthday America! Along the way, the gang debates the universal husband instinct of staring at broken appliances until they magically repair themselves, why every emergency service somehow funnels through the same call center, and whether Sherry deserves a raise for patiently answering everyone's increasingly desperate phone calls. Then things take a sharp turn into one of the greatest local stories imaginable. A KFC employee in North County decides company policy can wait after tackling an armed robbery suspect in the parking lot. The crew immediately begins casting Jason Statham as an ex-government operative secretly working the drive-thru window in what instantly becomes the greatest action movie Hollywood still hasn't made. As if that wasn't enough, Lern introduces everyone to a surprisingly emotional Netflix movie that sends the conversation spiraling into the slow death of voicemail culture, while the crew debates which everyday things will disappear as older generations fade out. Landlines? VHS tapes? Random messages that somehow sat in your inbox for three years? Nothing is safe. The crew also tackles one listener's parenting dilemma involving an absolutely terrible kid who has officially worn out his welcome, leading to stories about getting banned from friends' houses growing up, terrifying 90s parents, and why sometimes being the parent means embracing the villain role. Throw in weather panic, broken thermostats, neighborhood legends, retirement community shenanigans, bizarre Florida news, homeowner frustration, nostalgic childhood stories, and enough sarcastic commentary to survive even the hottest week of the year, and you've got another unforgettable episode. Whether you're listening on your morning commute, pretending to work, hiding from your broken AC, or simply looking for your favorite daily comedy show, this episode delivers the laughs, ridiculous conversations, and unexpected tangents you've come to expect. Woody back in St. Louis as the gang relives nearly setting Captain Jim's entire fireworks inventory on fire, accidentally launching explosives toward a trailer packed with even more explosives, and wondering how they somehow got invited back every year. Naturally, that turns into an all-out war over weather apps because apparently your choice between Apple Weather, Google Maps, Waze, and The Weather Channel says everything about your personality. Somewhere during the argument Riz admits he's gaming Waze just to earn imaginary points, Woody questions humanity, and Moon becomes Bing's official spokesperson. Then things somehow get even weirder. The crew debates home ownership versus renting, subscription services invading literally everything, catalytic converter thefts, why landlords secretly deserve medals, and whether calling your landlord to change a light bulb should be considered a crime. From there, the conversation completely derails into horrifying toothbrush habits. Seriously...if your toothbrush looks like it fought in several wars, Lern wants you to know she's apparently one of those people. Dentists everywhere may need a moment after this episode. The laughs keep rolling as Woody shares restaurant recommendations from Pittsburgh, everyone debates St. Louis food loyalties, Rafe discovers Corner 17, and the gang somehow lands on one of the most important questions ever asked: Which restaurant logo would you permanently tattoo on your body for free food for life? Today starts with Global Beatles Day as the crew celebrates one of the biggest moments in music history before arguing over the greatest Beatles songs ever recorded. George fans, Paul fans, John fans...and poor Ringo once again catching strays. Then it's straight into celebrity chaos. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding rumors explode after reports of a mysterious Madison Square Garden event, and somehow this turns into an actual gambling pool inside the studio. Is it the wedding? A rehearsal? A giant distraction? Nobody knows—but several people may owe each other money after Fourth of July weekend. Meanwhile, Kirk Hammett has entered what can only be described as his "Sassy Kirk Era," taking shots at modern pop music while somehow becoming everyone's favorite unexpected media personality. The crew fully embraces the new attitude. Chris Kerber joins the show for an extended Blues conversation covering the Jordan Kyrou trade, the Tkachuk family's incredible week, NHL Draft speculation, Jordan Binnington rumors, Curtis Joseph's Hall of Fame case, and where the franchise goes next.

This daily comedy episode starts with a huge thank-you to everyone who came out for Operation Food Search and helped absolutely crush the food drive. The listeners showed up, stayed all morning, and filled trucks with donations because apparently our audience enjoys doing good deeds almost as much as they enjoy making poor decisions. Then things get weird. A listener decides that "leash laws" are more of a suggestion than an actual rule and lets his dog roam free through a crowded event full of kids, other dogs, and enough audio cables to shut down an entire broadcast. Somehow the dog behaves better than its owner. Meanwhile, one of us spends the weekend at Innsbrook, where a mysterious painting crashes to the floor at 4:15 in the morning immediately after watching old episodes of Unsolved Mysteries. Was it gravity? Was it ghosts? Was Robert Stack involved? We may never know. And then comes one of the wildest stories we've heard in a while. A heavily armed prepper moves into a new rental home, goes to sleep, and wakes up to find a man standing over his bed. The story somehow gets even crazier when it turns out the "intruder" is a realtor innocently showing the house because of a paperwork mistake. Nobody gets hurt, but everyone involved definitely needs a nap and probably therapy. Elsewhere in this daily comedy chaos: We debate whether Innsbrook is basically the Hamptons of St. Louis.Tim goes full cowboy mode at a Taylor Swift and Dolly Parton-themed party.Riz and Rafe perform a deeply uncomfortable rendition of "Islands in the Stream" at a wedding.Father's Day gifts range from practical torches to futuristic neck fans that look slightly ridiculous but feel amazing.We discuss alpha-gal syndrome, heat waves in Paris, and why every town in southern Illinois suddenly seems to be thriving.Basically, if your week has already gone off the rails and it's only Monday, this daily comedy episode is here to remind you that everyone else is figuring it out as they go too.

Crime has officially arrived in West County. This comedy podcast starts with a parking lot mystery after catalytic converters are stolen from station vehicles, sending the crew down a rabbit hole involving precious metals, Sawzalls, undercover Pilates conspiracies, and a surprisingly detailed black-market economics lesson. Somehow, everyone becomes an armchair detective despite collectively knowing almost nothing about automotive parts. Then things get weird. Lern shares one of the most terrifying episodes of her hypnagogic hallucinations yet, involving an Australian-sized psychedelic spider that launches her out of bed and into a full sprint through her house. The gang dives into sleep paralysis, shadow figures, weird dreams, and the horrifying possibility that your brain can decide to be asleep and awake at the same time. Because this is a comedy podcast, the conversation naturally pivots into ranking famous redheads, debating whether Ed Sheeran or Conan O'Brien rules Ginger Kingdom, and discussing customized leather cowboy hats at the company fun day. As one does. And then, in perhaps the most important scientific discussion of the week, the crew is forced to choose one life upgrade: become 10% happier, 20% luckier, age 30% slower, become 40% hotter, make 50% more money, or become 60% better at sports. The answers reveal way more about everyone than anyone expected. It's another episode of pure daily chaos featuring: Catalytic converter theftsSleep hallucinations and giant dream spidersSleep paralysis horror storiesCelebrity ginger rankingsEd Sheeran belt negotiationsThe economics of attractivenessAging debatesRidiculous hypotheticalsThe usual amount of lovingly sarcastic nonsenseThis comedy podcast somehow turns stolen car parts and bad dreams into two hours of hilarious conversations that only The Rizzuto Show could have.

The gang kicks things off getting ready for the Fourth of July weekend, comparing travel plans, arguing over pools, hot tubs, hiking, and why nobody should ever trust someone who voluntarily hikes next to a 600-foot waterfall. Naturally, that somehow leads to discussions about bears, road trips, national parks, and exactly how everyone would prefer not to die. The crew breaks down how quickly tempers can spiral, why everyone needs to calm down behind the wheel, and how modern technology is changing criminal investigations in ways that are both fascinating and a little unsettling. a banquet hall fight that apparently started because somebody couldn't be bothered to use serving utensils for the meatballs. Yes... meatballs. What follows is an unforgettable conversation that somehow turns into a full-blown celebration of every meatball reference The Rizzuto Show has ever made over the years. we also debate fireworks injuries, Fourth of July travel, teenage curfews downtown, Kenny Loggins' travel habits, bottle rocket wars from childhood, and whether Roman candles were ever intended to be used responsibly weird news, celebrity randomness, listener-worthy tangents, and the completely unpredictable chemistry that makes The Rizzuto Show what it is. If you're looking for a funny podcast that never follows a script and somehow makes explosive diarrhea educational, congratulations—you've found it. Would you marry yourself? No seriously... knowing everything you know about yourself. Every annoying habit. Every irrational rant. Every weird obsession. Every story your spouse politely pretends isn't embarrassing anymore. Rizz is convinced he'd make the perfect husband. Rafe isn't sure he'd even date himself. Moon starts questioning his own parenting. Lern accidentally turns the conversation into a therapy session. King Scott somehow makes everything wholesome... until everyone starts imagining what their kids would be like if they brought home younger versions of themselves. Would you have been friends with your own kids in high school? Would your future son-in-law survive meeting Rizz? How much spaghetti is too much spaghetti? We also celebrate some incredible "Back in the Day" moments, including the infamous Guns N' Roses Riverport riot, Steve Winwood unknowingly blessing St. Louis history, Michael Jackson making chart history, and one of the wildest sports tragedies ever. Plus, celebrity gossip goes completely off the rails: • Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding conspiracy theories • Alan Jackson's emotional farewell concert • Weird Al turning down AI money • And somehow Clive Owen accidentally becomes Tom Hanks. Today's comedy podcast dives headfirst into one of the most unexpectedly heated debates we've ever had: breakfast nostalgia. Did anyone actually grow up eating those sitcom breakfasts? Or were we all surviving on toaster pastries, cereal, and whatever questionable leftovers were sitting in the fridge? Moon insists they're basically edible drywall, while everyone else passionately defends the flaky greatness of canned Pillsbury biscuits, Cracker Barrel breakfasts, sausage gravy, and the legendary "hillbilly casserole" that somehow fed an entire family on half a pound of hamburger and a can of cream of mushroom soup. If you've ever eaten a casserole that looked questionable but somehow tasted incredible, this episode is going to unlock some memories. It's time for another round of "Just the Two of Us," where teammates try to match answers while listeners bet on whether they'll succeed. What follows is 20+ minutes of patriotic nonsense featuring questions about founding fathers, fireworks, National Parks, cookout side dishes, Mount Rushmore, hot dog brands, barbecue foods, NASCAR legends, American landmarks, Fourth of July fruit, and one unforgettable moment where Tom Petty accidentally replaces Richard Petty.

Some people grew up in TV families where Dad somehow had enough time to make pancakes, bacon, eggs, fresh-squeezed orange juice, and still iron his shirt before work. The rest of us? We grabbed a Pop-Tart, hoped there was enough milk left for cereal, and tried not to miss the bus. Today's comedy podcast dives headfirst into one of the most unexpectedly heated debates we've ever had: breakfast nostalgia. Did anyone actually grow up eating those sitcom breakfasts? Or were we all surviving on toaster pastries, cereal, and whatever questionable leftovers were sitting in the fridge? Things quickly spiral into an all-out war over biscuits. Moon insists they're basically edible drywall, while everyone else passionately defends the flaky greatness of canned Pillsbury biscuits, Cracker Barrel breakfasts, sausage gravy, and the legendary "hillbilly casserole" that somehow fed an entire family on half a pound of hamburger and a can of cream of mushroom soup. If you've ever eaten a casserole that looked questionable but somehow tasted incredible, this episode is going to unlock some memories. From there, the show somehow becomes even more ridiculous. It's time for another round of "Just the Two of Us," where teammates try to match answers while listeners bet on whether they'll succeed. What follows is 20+ minutes of patriotic nonsense featuring questions about founding fathers, fireworks, National Parks, cookout side dishes, Mount Rushmore, hot dog brands, barbecue foods, NASCAR legends, American landmarks, Fourth of July fruit, and one unforgettable moment where Tom Petty accidentally replaces Richard Petty. There are shocking answer matches, spectacular misses, questionable logic, accidental comedy gold, and several moments where everyone wonders if they've completely lost their minds. As usual, the game becomes less about winning and more about roasting each other for the answers. If you love nostalgia, weird family food traditions, hilarious debates over things that absolutely shouldn't matter, and a cast that's somehow both competitive and completely unqualified, this episode delivers exactly the kind of beautiful chaos you'd expect. Thanks for listening to another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show. If you laughed, argued with us about biscuits, or yelled at your speakers during the game, you're officially one of us.

Would you marry yourself? No seriously... knowing everything you know about yourself. Every annoying habit. Every irrational rant. Every weird obsession. Every story your spouse politely pretends isn't embarrassing anymore. That's the question that completely derails today's comedy podcast, and somehow it turns into one of the funniest conversations we've had in a long time. Rizz is convinced he'd make the perfect husband. Rafe isn't sure he'd even date himself. Moon starts questioning his own parenting. Lern accidentally turns the conversation into a therapy session. King Scott somehow makes everything wholesome... until everyone starts imagining what their kids would be like if they brought home younger versions of themselves. Then things somehow get even weirder. Would you have been friends with your own kids in high school? Would your future son-in-law survive meeting Rizz? How much spaghetti is too much spaghetti? Why is rollerblading during national emergencies still being discussed decades later? Because it's The Rizzuto Show, that's only the beginning. We also celebrate some incredible "Back in the Day" moments, including the infamous Guns N' Roses Riverport riot, Steve Winwood unknowingly blessing St. Louis history, Michael Jackson making chart history, and one of the wildest sports tragedies ever. Plus, celebrity gossip goes completely off the rails: • Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding conspiracy theories • Alan Jackson's emotional farewell concert • Weird Al turning down AI money • And somehow Clive Owen accidentally becomes Tom Hanks. Along the way you'll hear terrible impressions, questionable life advice, random movie references, classic Rizz sarcasm, Moon's conspiracy brain working overtime, and the kind of conversations that only happen when five friends are given microphones. If you like unpredictable conversations, hilarious arguments, celebrity gossip, weird news, and friends roasting each other for two and a half hours, this comedy podcast is exactly your kind of chaos.

Some mornings are organized. This is not one of them. The gang kicks things off getting ready for the Fourth of July weekend, comparing travel plans, arguing over pools, hot tubs, hiking, and why nobody should ever trust someone who voluntarily hikes next to a 600-foot waterfall. Naturally, that somehow leads to discussions about bears, road trips, national parks, and exactly how everyone would prefer not to die. Then things take a hard left into one of the craziest local stories we've covered in a while—a road rage incident that escalated into tragedy. The crew breaks down how quickly tempers can spiral, why everyone needs to calm down behind the wheel, and how modern technology is changing criminal investigations in ways that are both fascinating and a little unsettling. As if that wasn't enough, we stumble into one of the greatest wedding stories ever told: a banquet hall fight that apparently started because somebody couldn't be bothered to use serving utensils for the meatballs. Yes... meatballs. What follows is an unforgettable conversation that somehow turns into a full-blown celebration of every meatball reference The Rizzuto Show has ever made over the years. Because we're apparently incapable of staying on one topic, we also debate fireworks injuries, Fourth of July travel, teenage curfews downtown, Kenny Loggins' travel habits, bottle rocket wars from childhood, and whether Roman candles were ever intended to be used responsibly. And then... there's the medical stuff. Without giving everything away, the crew dives headfirst into one of the most unbelievable parasite and digestive stories we've discussed on the show. It's gross. It's hilarious. You'll probably question your next meal. Exactly the way a daily comedy show should leave you. Expect sarcastic humor, ridiculous debates, pop culture commentary, weird news, celebrity randomness, listener-worthy tangents, and the completely unpredictable chemistry that makes The Rizzuto Show what it is. If you're looking for a funny podcast that never follows a script and somehow makes explosive diarrhea educational, congratulations—you've found it. Whether you're listening during your commute, at work, or pretending to work, thanks for hanging out with us for another daily comedy show packed with laughs, bizarre headlines, and stories that only seem possible because they're real. And yes... we say "meatballs" way more than any responsible adults should.

Scott Rizzuto and Anthony Stalter are back on The Spread Zone heading into a packed 4th of July Weekend. The guys break down the FIFA World Cup knockout stage, including a highly anticipated matchup between the US vs Bosnia and Herzegovina, Belgium vs Senegal, Portugal vs Croatia, Argentina vs Cape Verde, and more. Then it’s time for some football. Taking a look at big NFL future plays including win totals on the Baltimore Ravens, Las Vegas Raiders, Houston Texans, and Washington Commanders. Plus the guys picks to take home the hardware and the quickly approaching college football season. And to top it all off an American tradition like no other: Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest. The real questions: How much will Joey Chestnut win by? And can he beat his already jaw dropping records. LEGAL DISCLAIMER We provide information about sports betting for entertainment purposes only.

Fireworks are already flying, Missouri is apparently competing for the national championship of "Things You Shouldn't Light With Your Hand," and somehow that's only the beginning. The crew kicks things off trying to figure out whether it's Wednesday, Thursday, or simply the longest week in human history before diving headfirst into Fourth of July survival tips that probably won't save anybody's fingers. Backyard fireworks, neighborhood explosions, and some horrifying statistics make everyone question whether buying fireworks by the shopping cart was ever a good national tradition. Meanwhile, Moon relives the story of becoming "that weird guy in the neighborhood" after climbing a massive tree to rescue his son's drone and accidentally introducing himself to strangers as "Moon." Unsurprisingly, the neighbors were left convinced a celestial being...Road rage, unbearable heat, geese holding up traffic, Gary Busey somehow becoming Gary Goosey, and an absolutely ridiculous debate over whether honking at geese is ever acceptable all collide into one giant conversation that somehow still makes perfect sense on this daily comedy show. Just when everyone thinks the episode has peaked, along comes the legend of the mysterious Mexican Batman—a real-life vigilante allegedly duct-taping motorcycle thieves to light poles before leaving police to clean up the mess. The crew immediately begins casting Alfred, Robin, and debating exactly how Batman's alter ego translates into Spanish. As if that wasn't enough, Dry July officially begins, prompting discussions about drinking culture, whether wine has ever actually been healthy, bizarre proposals limiting alcohol sales, and the eternal struggle of surviving social events while staying sober. It's heartfelt, ridiculous, and exactly what you'd expect from people who can somehow turn alcohol policy into comedy. Ancient pinball laws finally disappear, bizarre yearbook pranks make national news, forgotten movie trivia takes over the studio, and somehow the gang finds itself laughing through one completely unbelievable story after another. The result is exactly what longtime listeners expect: organized chaos disguised as a radio show. If you love weird news, sarcastic humor, pop culture commentary, ridiculous debates, and a daily comedy show that somehow finds comedy hiding inside every headline, you're in the right place. Whether you're listening during your commute, pretending to work, or recovering from your own backyard fireworks adventure, we've got you covered. This daily comedy show dives headfirst into the weird power of 80s advertising as the gang discovers they somehow remember every lyric from Mentos, Big Red, Toys "R" Us, Crossfire, Mousetrap, Mountain Dew, and just about every commercial that interrupted Saturday morning cartoons. Apparently your brain forgets passwords but permanently stores gum jingles from 40 years ago. Then things take a surprisingly emotional turn as news breaks that St. Louis broadcasting legend Joe Buck is officially moving his family to Colorado. The crew debates whether the city should feel betrayed, whether Denver's mysterious airport conspiracy finally claimed another celebrity, and why St. Louis residents can be hilariously possessive of anyone they consider "one of us." Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without diving into celebrity chaos. The crew discusses Nikki Sixx reigniting an old feud with Godsmack, Tommy Lee proving he's somehow still the same guy after all these years, Rush postponing tour dates, Lizzo opening up about disappointing album sales, Bam Margera continuing his recovery journey, and the internet somehow finding a reason to get angry about Fiona's appearance in the new Shrek movie. Then comes one of the funniest conversations of the day as everyone debates the greatest comedy movies ever made. Does Monty Python and the Holy Grail deserve the top spot? Should Bridesmaids replace The Hangover? Is Dumb and Dumber secretly a perfect comedy? Naturally, absolutely nobody agrees. Finally, the show debuts a brand-new game that perfectly captures the generational divide. Teenagers are handed a list of legendary 80s and 90s band names and asked to pronounce them out loud. The results are exactly as gloriously awkward as you'd hope, leaving everyone wondering whether classic rock history has officially become another foreign language. If you've ever looked at the spelling of Queensrÿche, INXS, Kajagoogoo, Björk, Hüsker Dü, Portishead, Chumbawamba, Oingo Boingo, or Yngwie Malmsteen and wondered who lost a bet naming these bands... this episode is for you. Rizz recruits his kids and their friends for what seems like a simple challenge: read a list of famous artists from the '80s and '90s out loud. Easy... until they actually see the spellings. What follows is an absolutely glorious game of confidence, confusion, lucky guesses, and pronunciations that make every Gen Xer simultaneously laugh and feel incredibly old. The crew debates every answer before callers place their bets on whether today's teenagers can figure out names that older music fans have spent decades taking for granted. Some artists turn out to be easier than expected. Others become instant comedy gold. Hearing "Inks" instead of INXS, watching everyone overthink Depeche Mode, the surprising victories with Chumbawamba and Oingo Boingo, and the complete surrender when Yngwie Malmsteen enters the chat all make for one hilarious ride. Along the way, Moon, King Scott, Rafe, and Rizz roast each other almost as much as they roast the contestants, making every guess funnier than the last. It's nostalgia, music trivia, generational chaos, and live game-show energy all rolled into one episode. Whether you're screaming the correct answers from your car, discovering some of these bands for the first time, or realizing your favorite artists have names that make absolutely no phonetic sense, this comedy podcast delivers nonstop laughs from start to finish. If you grew up watching MTV, collecting CDs, or arguing over whose dad had the better record collection, you'll love seeing how today's generation handles these iconic names. And if you're Gen Z... don't worry. We promise we're laughing with you.

One innocent conversation about an old Juicy Fruit commercial somehow snowballs into a full-blown nostalgia spiral, and honestly... nobody even tries to stop it. This daily comedy show dives headfirst into the weird power of 80s advertising as the gang discovers they somehow remember every lyric from Mentos, Big Red, Toys "R" Us, Crossfire, Mousetrap, Mountain Dew, and just about every commercial that interrupted Saturday morning cartoons.

The weather is hotter than a dashboard in August, which naturally leads the gang to ask the important scientific questions... like whether eating ridiculously spicy food actually cools you off or if someone's "Mexican friend" just made that up. Then things take an unexpected turn when the crew debates one of life's biggest questions: January or July? One side argues for sunshine, pools and BBQs, while the other passionately defends fireplaces, blankets and seasonal depression. Somehow everyone makes a compelling argument... even if none of it makes any sense. Meanwhile, Learn officially declares Dry July after an absolutely legendary night that ended exactly the way every adult swears will "never happen again." The crew relives embarrassing hangover stories, questionable late-night food choices, mysterious sink incidents, and enough bad decisions to make every listener suddenly want a glass of water. As if that wasn't enough chaos, the conversation shifts toward dangerous TikTok trends after reports of the Benadryl Challenge resurfacing. The crew mixes genuine concern with their trademark sarcasm while reminiscing about all the unbelievably dumb things their own generation somehow survived. There's also plenty of discussions about American air conditioning, European heat waves, saunas, spicy snacks during a heat advisory, weird summer traditions, and why every generation somehow invents new ways to accidentally knock themselves unconscious. Basically... if you've ever questioned your life choices while sweating through your shirt, this episode is for you. Whether you're listening at work, in traffic, by the pool, or hiding from the heat with the AC cranked to "meat locker," this daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of ridiculous conversations you've come to expect from The Rizzuto Show. The crew dives headfirst into nostalgia after discovering an old collection of TV commercials that somehow unlocked memories nobody asked for. One innocent Juicy Fruit jingle quickly turns into an investigation involving skiing, bananas, questionable marketing decisions, and whether "Take a sniff, pull it out" should have ever made it onto national television. Naturally, things only get weirder from there. Moon and Rizz square off once again in another edition of Match Up With Moon, where the trivia somehow covers pocket watches, Salvador Dalí, Oreo history, sunscreen, Weird Al, Netflix originals, Air Bud, Godzilla, James Bond, harmonicas, golf scoring, accordion buttons, and the Bare Naked Ladies...all in one game. It's the kind of trivia round that makes you wonder what exactly King Scott's browser history looks like. Expect plenty of roasting, second-guessing, accidental confidence, forgotten TV shows, wildly incorrect movie franchise guesses, and the usual chaos that somehow keeps this show moving every single morning. As always, the laughs come from watching everyone confidently explain things they absolutely shouldn't be confident about. The crew kicks things off celebrating Rizz's birthday with a full-on 90s throwback event featuring live music, bowling, cake, and enough nostalgia to make your lower back hurt just thinking about it. Then it's Social Media Day, which naturally turns into everyone comparing screen-time stats, admitting their phone addictions, and realizing we've collectively donated years of our lives to scrolling videos of people organizing refrigerators we'll never own. Then things get weird. A tech futurist casually suggests we should all accept that privacy is basically dead, cameras will be everywhere, and the best solution is simply "be a good person." Totally normal. Naturally, the crew dives headfirst into Meta smart glasses, surveillance culture, creepy recording technology, Black Mirror predictions, and whether we're sprinting toward a future where literally everything is being watched. As if that's not enough existential dread, there's celebrity chaos everywhere. Taylor Swift wedding rumors refuse to die, Aaron Lewis accidentally becomes packing material for Taylor merch, Barry Manilow's latest appearance sparks one of the funniest conversations of the day, Limp Bizkit's comeback continues to surprise everyone, and the gang debates which era deserves a Rolling Stones biopic. There's also classic Rizz Show randomness including fake live albums, KISS concert intros, the Olsen twins making a rare appearance, John Cena's latest hair transplant adventure, Will Ferrell modeling underwear, and one wildly questionable list ranking the TV shows that supposedly define America. Basically, it's another perfectly normal episode where birthday planning somehow turns into discussions about government surveillance, celebrity gossip, 90s rock, social media addiction, and whether anyone can still tell the Olsen twins apart.

Some episodes start with breaking news. This one starts with grown adults passionately debating whether the Juicy Fruit commercial was secretly the weirdest advertisement ever made. Welcome to another comedy podcast where absolutely nothing goes according to plan. The crew dives headfirst into nostalgia after discovering an old collection of TV commercials that somehow unlocked memories nobody asked for. One innocent Juicy Fruit jingle quickly turns into an investigation involving skiing, bananas, questionable marketing decisions, and whether "Take a sniff, pull it out" should have ever made it onto national television. Naturally, things only get weirder from there. Moon and Rizz square off once again in another edition of Match Up With Moon, where the trivia somehow covers pocket watches, Salvador Dalí, Oreo history, sunscreen, Weird Al, Netflix originals, Air Bud, Godzilla, James Bond, harmonicas, golf scoring, accordion buttons, and the Bare Naked Ladies...all in one game. It's the kind of trivia round that makes you wonder what exactly King Scott's browser history looks like. Expect plenty of roasting, second-guessing, accidental confidence, forgotten TV shows, wildly incorrect movie franchise guesses, and the usual chaos that somehow keeps this show moving every single morning. Highlights include: • The Juicy Fruit commercial that gets progressively stranger every time they replay it. • Moon trying to identify what flavor Juicy Fruit actually is. • Rafe questioning why gum companies targeted skiers. • Rizz completely blanking on a TV show he absolutely knows. • Air Bud becoming the unexpected MVP of the day. • King Scott asking trivia questions nobody has ever prepared for in their entire lives. • One surprisingly heated debate about accordion bass buttons. As always, the laughs come from watching everyone confidently explain things they absolutely shouldn't be confident about. If you love random conversations that spiral completely out of control, pop culture nonsense, nostalgic commercials, weird facts, and friends roasting each other for nearly half an hour, this comedy podcast has everything you didn't know you needed. Whether you're listening during your commute, pretending to work, or hiding from responsibilities for a little while, thanks for hanging out with us.
