Today's stories: L7 bassist Jennifer Finch has died at 59 following a battle with aggressive brain cancer, just five days after her diagnosis was made public — Scott looks at the incredible $375,000 outpouring of support from members of Tool, Garbage, Pearl Jam and Bikini Kill in her final days, and her request that L7's farewell tour carry on without her. Plus: RUSH is reportedly in talks for a Las Vegas Sphere residency, with Eddie Trunk claiming a 16-to-18-show run is already a done deal for next year. And the cast of Super Troopers crashed Limp Bizkit's set at Creed's Summer of '99 and Beyond Festival in Tinley Park to serve Fred Durst a "noise complaint" — before helping the band close out with "Break Stuff."

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.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ep 278 “The Final Call from the Oval Throne” – National Gun Violence Awareness Month (Bullet Poof Bulletins) Celebrating the grand finale of the Bullet Poof Bulletins series for National Gun Violence Awareness Month, Avis Kalfsbeek brings down the house at the Spoke-Easy Stage with a wild narrative update. Tonight, Kitty O'Compost recounts a bizarre shop phone call she received earlier in the day from the corporate-backed "Mr. President Emperor USA," who demanded she shut down the community forge for ruining the firearms market. Kitty uses the encounter to drop a final, brilliant history lesson drawn from the archives of executive firearms—exposing how early American leaders treated weapons as ornamental, velvet-boxed relics rather than everyday lifestyle accessories. Inspired by the transformative, hopeful themes of Bullet Poof, this finale ends with a powerful call to action, thanking the community for coming together and challenging us to invest in real-world neighborhood solidarity.

The queer icon and punk provocateur talks bodily autonomy, embracing ageing and her new album, No Lube So Rude. Merrill Nisker—known to most of the world as Peaches—has spent 25 years making music that refuses to behave. Since her 2000 breakthrough, The Teaches of Peaches, she's built a body of work at the intersection of performance art, punk provocation and dance music, becoming an international queer icon and a touchstone for anyone told their body or identity doesn't fit. Peaches' new album, No Lube So Rude, is out now on the Washington-based label Kill Rock Stars, also home to the likes of Bikini Kill and Sleater-Kinney.

In this RA Exchange, Peaches, now 59, talks about making the record after a decade of silence and what it means to keep making confrontational art. Listen to the episode in full.

Episode 068: We're finally handing the aux cord over to the women who actually know how to use it—no dudes, no filler, just pure energy. This episode, we're tracing the lineage of noise from the riot grrrl foundations of Bikini Kill to the unapologetic, loud-as-hell provocations of The SoapGirls, stopping along the way for the viral punk energy of The Linda Lindas and the bratty, technical precision of VIAL. We even take a detour into the cinematic trip-hop weirdness of Cibo Matto before letting Mitski deliver a masterclass in controlled songwriting chaos. It's a six-track deep dive into the distortion, grit, and melody that prove "playing like a girl" is a threat, not a descriptor.   Apple Podcasts Instagram Spotify Playlist Official Site

Cory usually brings the funk, but today he's got the punk with a pair of movies that warped his young mind way back in the 80s. And he's also brining along film historian and commentary track superstar Marc Edward Heuck in an episode we call CORY'S PUNK ROCK AND SHOCK TIL YOU DROP! (Or at least that's what Bob called it when he hyped it in our last episode.) Cory's first pick is LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE FABULOUS STAINS (1982--kinda), a movie most of us discovered on USA Network's glorious NIGHT FLIGHT in the mid-80s. This movie about a defiant girl punk band getting out of their shitty mill town inspired L7 and Bikini Kill to start bands, and even Jon Bon Jovi cites it as an influence. JBJ notwithstanding, our world would be a crappier place without it. Marc contributed two commentary tracks to the excellent new Fun City Editions 4K UHD and Blu-ray release so he will tell you all about the movie that Paramount could not keep down. Then, the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo capture their crazed stage show in the surreal PHANTOM ZONE (1980). And if that wasn't enough, they added Hervé Villechaize and Susan Tyrrell as the king and queen to make it even weirder. Streaming on Roku, Tubi, Plex and more. In the intro segment, Marc tells us what it's like to record commentary tracks, Bob talks about the wonders of digital broadcast with all the MeTVs there, and Cory and Philena extol the virtues of low-budget TV jingles.
