This episode looks at four food stories through one lens — who decides what counts as "good" food. It covers how hot dogs are made and their real cancer risk, plus vegan and carrot-based alternatives; the Coney Island eating contest and what it says about our relationship with unhealthy food; a critique of the National Food Museum's diet scorecard, which penalizes skipping dairy/fish and eating more produce; and Europe's falling meat consumption alongside its fight over labeling plant-based "burgers" and "sausages."

Weakened Policing, Hesitant Prosecution: The Real Reason NYC Stays Dangerous Eight people were shot in Coney Island on July 4th, and an NYPD detective survived a shooting only because of his ballistic vest. Retired NYPD Sergeant Bill Cannon breaks down the reality behind “crime is down” claims, bail reform, weakened proactive policing, NYPD budget cuts, the end of Anti-Crime Units, and the impact of hesitant prosecution. This is a straight law-enforcement analysis of why violent offenders, illegal guns, and policy decisions are still putting New Yorkers at risk. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It was an eventful 250th celebration of our country on Saturday.

Can you dig it?The Warriors are coming out to play again—but this time, they're heading to Broadway. Lin-Manuel Miranda and Eisa Davis are transforming the cult 1979 Walter Hill movie into a full stage musical based on their acclaimed concept album. Their version reimagines the Warriors as an all-female gang and combines hip-hop, rock, salsa and R&B.Can the gritty story of a Coney Island gang fighting its way home survive the jump to Broadway, or does turning The Warriors into a Lin-Manuel Miranda musical completely miss what made the original movie work?We also get into Michael Caine licensing an AI-generated version of his voice to narrate The Odyssey, Instagram's attempt to become television, Hollywood's improving box-office numbers and the deeply uncomfortable Season 3 premiere of House of the Dragon.Plus, Trailer Trash features Ricky Gervais' Alley Cats, King of the Hill Season 15 and Apple TV's The Dink.

What's better than a theme park podcast? A theme park podcast recorded while a tornado is actively threatening to rearrange EB's house. Welcome to another completely unhinged episode of Coaster Radio, where we somehow manage to discuss the future of Disney Imagineering, a legendary wooden coaster's potential comeback, and the glorious grit of America's boardwalk parks while EB monitors live storm tracking from his studio. We kick things off with some big news: Adobe has announced a collaboration with Walt Disney Imagineering Research & Development to bring AI-powered pre-visualization tools to the theme park design pipeline. The idea is to take Imagineering's massive archive of concept art and accelerate the development process — from blue sky sketch to 3D model, faster than ever before. Sounds exciting, right? Well, EB has thoughts. A lot of them. Speaking of attractions, Hershey Park's legendary Tidal Force — one of the most spectacular splash zones in the history of boat rides — is closing after 32 years this September. Alabama Adventure is teasing a big announcement that fans hope means the long-dormant Rampage wooden coaster is finally coming back, possibly with RMC treatment. Universal Epic Universe is debuting a brand new nighttime spectacular called Celestial Goodnight featuring seven million LED lights and 350 fountains. And Dollywood's Night Flight Expedition has been pushed back to August — which opens the door for Holiday World, who appears to be announcing their single biggest investment ever on July 1st at 8:45 AM, and all signs point to a Mack rocking boat ride coming to Boulder Canyon in 2027. Then we pivot to the second half of the show — a full celebration of boardwalk parks and the beautiful, gritty, chaotic joy of beach amusement. Mike's heading to Ocean City, Maryland for vacation, and we take a loving tour of some of America's great seaside spots: the Santa Monica Pier, Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco (including a very generous offer of free tokens to Treasure Hunt), the New Jersey piers, Coney Island (which Mike has still never visited and yes, we're calling him out), and the terminally underrated Indiana Beach. We also go deep on mini golf — specifically, how much a well-themed mini golf course with animatronics slaps, and why the card-swipe ticket system is a crime against childhood nostalgia. And yes, there's a million-dollar mini golf course for sale in EB's town if anyone's interested.

Irwin Winkler has spent more than six decades in Hollywood, producing films that have earned 52 Academy Award nominations and helped define generations of moviegoers.

It’s a heinous story that shocked the New York community, 34-year-old Erin Merdy drowned her 7, 4 and 3 month old children in the Atlantic Ocean. Merdy left their bodies along the Coney Island shoreline where it took authorities hours to find them. A judge showed leniency to Merdy, going against prosecutors who wanted her sentenced to life without parole. Once you hear how her life turned upside down, from a young woman with hopes of a health care career to a hopeless single mother suffering from postpartum depression, his lesser sentence may be more understandable.

Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show spirals immediately into absolute nonsense, which honestly should surprise nobody at this point. Joey Chestnut — America's greatest competitive eater and possible future Hall of Fame digestive superhero — is officially headed back to Coney Island to defend the mustard belt… while also carrying around a little misdemeanor battery charge from a bar fight in Indiana. Nothing says patriotism like eating 70 hot dogs while on probation.The crew breaks down Joey's alleged slap incident, his legendary bologna-eating accomplishments, and why Major League Eating apparently has a softer disciplinary policy than most middle schools. Sixteen pounds of bologna in eight minutes somehow becomes a full discussion topic, because this daily comedy show continues to ask the important questions no one else will: “What actually happens to a human body after that?”Meanwhile, Britney Spears' newly released DUI footage gives the internet another unforgettable moment when she offers police officers homemade lasagna and pool access instead of, you know… cooperating normally. The gang investigates what Britney's lasagna recipe probably looks like, whether it contains Xanax seasoning, and why nobody trusts food made in Britney's kitchen anymore. Rafe invents “Lasanax,” which honestly feels like it belongs on a restaurant menu in Las Vegas.Elsewhere in the chaos:Stephen Colbert officially signs off from late night televisionPearl Jam quietly replaces Matt CameronNOFX surprises fans with new music after breaking upChloe Kardashian regrets declawing her catsLern admits she's never seen The GodfatherRizz regrets never seeing Rush liveAnd King Scott somehow turns a celebrity birthday segment into an emotional support sessionThe show also dives into bizarre celebrity birthdays, old-school arcade nostalgia, Rolling Stones trivia, Dancing with the Stars rejections, and why George Hamilton may legally be required to stay permanently tan forever.If you enjoy weird news, sarcastic humor, celebrity disasters, music talk, St. Louis nonsense, and a daily comedy show that sounds like your smartest friends slowly becoming raccoons over coffee, this episode absolutely delivers.The Rizzuto Show continues proving that no topic is too stupid to become a 20-minute discussion if the chemistry's right.This daily comedy show proudly serves comedy podcast chaos, entertainment gossip, weird stories, celebrity fails, and enough questionable opinions to keep your commute interesting.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/RizzShowHear 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.
