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.

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.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.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.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.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.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.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.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.”Thankfully, St. Louis Blues broadcaster Chris Kerber joins the show to restore professionalism.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.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?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.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.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Maplewood and St. Charles hear Walmart drone delivery pitchTrucker hailed as hero after I-70 wrong-way scareBest and Worst Drivers by Brand: 2026 ReportDetroit TV anchor caught on video calling her boss a ‘bitch' in profanity-laced newsroom blowupCould Lettuce Make Plant-Based Meat Taste More Like the Real Thing?

SUBURBAKNIGHT: Act One Walter Knope is having a bad week. His antique store is bankrupt. The bank has locked him out. His house is now filled with everything he couldn't sell. His teenage daughter thinks he's embarrassing, his marriage has seen better days, and Walter is beginning to suspect middle age may just be a long series of humiliations ending in death. Then Richard Sarandon moves in across the street. Richard is rich, handsome, charming and spectacularly confident. The neighborhood women can't stop looking at him. The husbands barely notice. Walter notices everything. Especially the two body bags carried out of Richard's house in the middle of the night. Then Walter sees Richard do something no human being should be able to do. Written by Nick Bannister, SUBURBAKNIGHT is a wicked suburban horror-comedy about marriage, jealousy, masculinity and the nightmare of discovering that the impossibly perfect man next door may actually be a monster. Walter calls the police. They find nothing. Richard smiles. Walter looks insane. Then comes the neighborhood party. Pool. Booze. Barbecue. Husbands watching football. Wives watching Richard. With help from Andy, his beer-bellied neighbor and resident horror-movie expert, Walter finally puts a name to what moved in across the street. An incubus. A demon that seduces women and feeds on their life force. Now Richard knows Walter is onto him. Walter knows Richard wants Samantha. And the fight Walter thought was about his pride, his marriage and his rapidly collapsing life is about to become something much worse. Luckily, Walter's house is currently filled with swords, crossbows, armor and medieval weapons nobody wanted to buy. Maybe the antique business wasn't such a bad idea after all. Starring Darin Toonder, Jim O'Heir, Jade Tailor, Jack Daniel, Rob Fitzgerald, Logan Laurel, Emily Brolin, Ashley Platz, and Zeke Alton.

George 'Tuffy' Stone, World Champion pitmaster and all-round barbeque expert, is in studio ahead of this week's The Big Grill Festival in Herbert Park.
Send us Fan MailA Southfork barbecue is supposed to be loud, hot, and full of petty shade. This one starts that way and then stops the whole party in its tracks. We're recapping Dallas Season 5 Episode 13, Barbecue II, and the emotional swing is brutal in the best soap opera way. Sue Ellen is the center of gravity for me here. She's stepping into real independence for the first time, trying to choose a home, manage money that still feels tied to JR, and protect her peace even when family love comes knocking. Clayton Farlow's support gives her something she rarely gets in Dallas: calm, practical guidance without an angle. Meanwhile, Miss Ellie tries to hold onto tradition and keep the Ewing orbit stable, even as the divorce mess and public attention keep pressing in. Around them, the Dallas machine keeps turning: Lucy draws the wrong kind of attention at a bookstore shoot, the Barnes and Wentworth crew rolls back into town, and Cliff Barnes starts looking like he might finally turn Ewing 6 into real power. Bobby's adoption situation tightens as legal realities creep closer, and Donna's book tour plus Ray's insecurity adds another spark to an already volatile day. Then comes the gut-punch: news about Jock's crash lands, and you can feel the air leave the scene. If you love Dallas recaps, primetime soap opera breakdowns, and character-driven commentary with humor and heart, hit play. Subscribe, share this with a fellow soap fan, and leave a review so more people find Soap Lore.

Truth BBQ was built on two thousand dollars, zero sleep, and a decade of obsession, and this episode of Success Formula pulls back the curtain on exactly how it happened. Host Shawn Lynch sits down with Leonard Botello IV and Abbie Botello, founders of Truth BBQ, to unpack how they turned a two-table shack in Brenham into one of Houston's most awarded barbecue restaurants, and why this conversation matters right now for anyone building something of their own.Leonard and Abbie walk through the early days of running Truth BBQ on almost no sleep, the two thousand dollar smoker pit that started it all, and the discipline required to earn a spot on the Texas Monthly Top 50 Barbecue list. They talk candidly about surviving the pandemic, the tax and insurance mistakes that nearly sank the business, the hardest hiring lessons they learned while scaling a small barbecue joint into a Houston institution, and why they have deliberately chosen not to expand into multiple locations. Shawn digs into how authenticity, word of mouth, and relentless consistency built a brand that Michelin, Texas Monthly, and thousands of loyal customers now recognize.If you are building a business, a brand, or a career and want the real story behind the discipline it takes to succeed, subscribe to Official Success Formula for more conversations like this one.

Think Oregon is all about Pinot Noir? Think again. In this episode I'm joined by Samantha Cole-Johnson, Senior US Editor at JancisRobinson.com and the Master of Wine student who achieved the highest mark in the world in Stage One of the notoriously challenging MW programme, to uncover the side of Oregon that most people never discover. From cross-border wine regions that ignore state lines to savoury Syrah grown on basalt cobblestones, richer styles of Pinot Gris and a brand-new sparkling wine movement, this episode will completely change the way you think about Oregon. Along the way, we also discuss what the future of wine might look like - and why the biggest challenge facing the wine industry may have nothing to do with wine itself. You'll discover why the Rocks District produces some of America's most distinctive Syrah, why Oregon's Pinot Gris deserves far more attention, how Method Oregon is putting the state's sparkling wines on the map, and the producers and wine regions that should be firmly on your travel wishlist. So, if you're ready to look beyond Pinot Noir, pour yourself a glass, sit back, and enjoy this episode.
