What do you get when you combine Vegas gambling drama, illegal cockfighting, Garth Brooks' billion-dollar music catalog, talking pets, celebrity chaos, and a healthy dose of completely unnecessary arguments? You get another perfectly normal day on The Rizzuto Show.In Episode 201, the crew dives into one of the wildest casino stories we've heard in a long time. A woman hits a jackpot in Pennsylvania, the lights flash, the bells ring, everyone celebrates... and then the police show up. Turns out she had voluntarily banned herself from casinos years earlier, creating one of the strangest gambling situations imaginable. Did she deserve the money? Should the casino have stopped her before she ever played? The debate gets surprisingly heated.From there, things somehow get even weirder. We head out to Nevada, where authorities busted a massive illegal cockfighting operation involving hundreds of birds, stacks of cash, and enough bizarre details to make everyone question humanity for a few minutes. Naturally, the crew also dives into the strange history of cockfighting and how it somehow became one of the oldest spectator sports in human history.As if that wasn't enough, the conversation takes a hard left turn into pet territory. If you could ask your dog or cat one question and get a real answer, what would it be? Are they happy? Do they secretly judge us? Are they plotting something? The gang spends far more time than anyone should discussing the emotional lives of household pets, and honestly, it might be the most important topic of the day.Meanwhile, Garth Brooks may be sitting on a music catalog worth up to $2 billion, which sparks a conversation about legendary artists cashing out. Bruce Springsteen, Queen, and now potentially Garth could be changing the future of music ownership forever.Plus, Lern delivers another packed Crap on Celebrities featuring Taylor Swift wedding rumors, Jeff Goldblum coming to St. Louis, Sydney Sweeney's upcoming Sleepy Hollow project, Mama June updates nobody asked for, Netflix documentaries, TV cancellations, celebrity birthdays, and one of the greatest collections of music mashups you'll hear all week.This daily comedy show proves once again that no topic is too ridiculous, no celebrity gossip is too random, and no argument is too dumb to spend twenty minutes discussing. If you're looking for a daily comedy show packed with weird news, pop culture commentary, hilarious debates, and the kind of chaos only The Rizzuto Show can deliver, you've come to the right place.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.

The only thing we learn from history is that we don't learn anything from history. That was the summary comment of host Joseph Grove in a conversation about the federal government's lackadaisical response to the emergent bird flu crisis. The podcast was recorded shortly after the virus claimed its first U.S. human fatality, a man in Louisiana. Grove was joined by Dr. Jim Keen and Dr. Tom Pool. They reviewed the progress of the disease in the United States, its spread from birds to cattle and humans, and the possibility—perhaps even the likelihood—that a virulent form will soon emerge that enables fast transmission among people. If that happens, the experts said, the COVID pandemic in retrospect may look mild by comparison. Drs. Keen and Pool also talked about the importance of passing the FIGHT Act, legislation to be reintroduced in the new Congress that would help eradicate cockfighting in the United States. Cockfighting entails poor standards of bird handling and the movement of potentially infected birds across the country and the world, all in addition to the “sports” inherent animal cruelty and appurtenant crimes of drugs, illegal weapons, illicit gambling, and even human trafficking.
