EP35 – New Year, Same Old WaffleIt's 2017 and the first When We Waffle of the new year — although absolutely nothing appears to have improved.There's plenty of chat from the team, Kat's Corner returns, and Laurie somehow gets onto George Michael, with a collection of increasingly unlikely stories: seeing him on a bus, a friend apparently spotting him playing the fruit machines at an amusement arcade, and another receiving some unexpected advice from George about where to buy cheaper Crocs. Are any of these stories actually true? We have absolutely no idea.Laurie's grandad inevitably finds his way back into the conversation, there are more ridiculous stories from Terry, Kat and Laurie, and Ray Medallion crops up once again to add his own particular brand of nonsense.It's another episode of conversations going nowhere, stories that probably shouldn't be believed and three people happily waffling their way through the beginning of 2017.These archive episodes are being played here for the first time after being locked away for almost 10 years, carefully remastered and restored by Peters-Fox Ltd. And there's plenty more to come — including brand-new When We Waffle later this year.Hosted by Terry Mynott, Katrina Fox and Laurie Peters.Produced, remastered, edited and published by Peters-Fox Ltd.Follow the show, tell a fellow waffler and come back Tuesday and Friday for another helping of When We Waffle.Instagram: instagram.com/whenwewaffle
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.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.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

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 BongRipper69@hotmail.com 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.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.Tulsa cops hunting ‘serial defecator' wearing thong, mask and shower cap who terrorized local businessesBride and groom bedridden for days after norovirus-tainted wedding mealTim Curry, Famous for Roles in Rocky Horror Picture Show, It and Annie, Dies at 80, 14 Years After Paralyzing StrokeDozens of new Missouri laws take effect FridayMan, 26, arrested after dressing as ‘Grim Reaper' and climbing onto hospital roof with long scythe to stare at patientsWhy You Shouldn't Squish Ants—and What to Do InsteadMaryville University Hockey Rink expansion to be named after Blues legendSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The business world was buzzing when Burger King posted 8.5% same-store sales growth in the US, beating McDonald’s by the widest margin in at least two years. Meanwhile, Wendy’s dropped 7%, losing its number two spot in American fast food. But is this turnaround as impressive as the headlines suggest? Through the lens of category design, the story looks very different from what most business journalists are telling you. On this episode of The Pirate Street Journal, Christopher , Eddie, and Bri break down what is really happening with Burger King and the fast food wars, why Reddit has become the most valuable and most manipulated room on the internet, and whether mascots are a genuine brand asset or just a sign that a company has nothing real to say. What emerged was a masterclass in how companies confuse marketing wins with actual category leadership. This is just some of the topics that Pirates Christopher Lochhead, Eddie Yoon and Bri Clark discuss on this episode of The Pirate Street Journal. Each week, the Category Pirates pick three headlines worth paying attention to and break down the category underneath. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Burger King’s Growth Numbers Do Not Tell the Whole Story When Burger King rebuilt the Whopper with a premium bun, new mayo, and a box instead of a wrapper, it made headlines. CEO Tom Curtis started taking personal calls from customers, reportedly logging over 3,300 conversations. These are real operational improvements, and the marketing shift from stunt-driven content to customer-celebrating campaigns like “You Rule” shows genuine progress. However, as the panel pointed out, you do not deposit percentages into a bank account. Franchise profit per location actually dropped from roughly $205,000 to $185,000, hammered by record beef prices. The chain making less money per store is winning traffic, but not building wealth. Marketing can improve perception, but it cannot solve for a weak category position. Why Burger King Cannot Win by Fighting for Number Two The deeper issue is that Burger King has spent decades trying to be a better version of McDonald’s rather than something genuinely different. McDonald’s has far more locations and is legendary for speed and consistency. Premium burger brands like Five Guys and Shake Shack own the taste-driven, quality-focused space. Burger King is caught in the middle, without a clear category to own. The contrast with In-N-Out Burger is striking. In-N-Out has been owned by one family since its founding, has never franchised, has never gone public, and operates with one of the simplest menus in fast food history. The result is that customers do not say they want a burger. They say they want In-N-Out. That is what a category of one looks like, and it is the standard Burger King should be measuring itself against. What Reddit and Mascots Teach Us About Category Thinking The Reddit story carries a powerful lesson that connects directly to Burger King’s situation. Brands are paying agencies thousands of dollars a month to plant fake organic reviews on the one platform consumers trust precisely because nothing there is bought. The panel argued that the real opportunity on Reddit is not manipulation. It is listening. Angry customers are not indifferent customers. They are passionate ones who can be flipped into advocates with radical generosity and a genuine point of view. The mascot trend follows the same pattern. Crocs, Liberty Mutual, Stanley Black and Decker, and others are launching brand characters, but research shows a mascot needs more than three years of consistent use before it delivers measurable results. Most marketing teams do not have three years. Duolingo’s Green Owl succeeded because one person committed to it consistently over five years and built something culturally meaningful. A mascot, like any marketing asset, cannot substitute for a clear category. It can only amplify one that already exists.

The state's public health department is ordering the GEO Group to provide information about tuberculosis at an Aurora immigration detention facility, but the private corrections company has yet to comply. Westword editor emeritus Patty Calhoun joins politics contributor Adrian Felix in his last episode filling in as guest host to break down what's going on at the detention center, discuss the state of downtown in light of the departure of Denver's Chief Projects Officer Bill Mosher, and chat about the questionable international decisions made by two companies that had their start here: Crocs and Chipotle. Patty mentioned Chipotle getting name-dropped in an episode of the NPR podcast “Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!” earlier this month.

Designer Salehe Bembury turns sneakers into stories — like a sunset-colored shoe and footwear with a hiking whistle in the heel. In conversation with TED's Cloe Shasha Brooks, Bembury walks through some of his most coveted drops (for Crocs, New Balance, Versace and more) and breaks down the risk-taking behind his work.

Auf der Messe in Offenbach ist mir zum ersten Mal die Firma MTNG Mustang über den Weg gelaufen. Die Marke war mir bisher im Barfußschuhbereich völlig unbekannt und ich war sehr erstaunt über das große Sortiment. Was aber sofort meine Aufmerksamkeit auf sich zog, waren mehrere Gummilatschen, die den allseits beliebten "Crocs" sehr ähnlich sehen, nur als Barfußschuh. Mit Thorsten Naulin, der die Firma MTNG Mustang in Deutschland vertritt, habe ich über die Marke und den Schuh gesprochen. Im Paket hatte Thorsten aber noch eine Überraschung für mich: Einen Barfußschuh zum Fußballspielen. Also einen Barfuß - Fußballschuh. Auch darüber sprechen wir natürlich. Bilder zu den Schuhen gibt es wie immer auf meinen Social Media Kanälen.

A youth camp's growing goose problem inspires a group of students to take matters into their own hands in “Silence of the Geese,” leading to a solution no leader could have possibly approved. Plus, a worship song gets taken way too literally, a harmless volleyball challenge ends in damage control, a church lock-in leaves behind a disgusting secret, and a staff member's summer camp tradition goes painfully wrong. From an awkward interview answer and a case of mistaken identity to ghosts, Crocs, and a student claiming to be Jesus, this episode is another reminder that you never really know what's going to happen in youth ministry.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
How good does the dick have to be before you're willing to overlook Crocs? Because apparently Miss K found the answer.
Mac, the creator of Halfway Anywhere and the annual PCT Thru-Hiker Survey, joins the show to talk about hiking Corsica's GR20, how the Pacific Crest Trail has changed, and whether modern thru-hiking has lost some of its mystery.We compare our experiences on the GR20, including huts, snow, intense heat, crowded trails, French hiking culture and the unexpected luxury of buying sandwiches in the mountains. Then we dig into the evolution of the PCT, from paper maps and hitchhiking to FarOut comments, scheduled rides, heavier gear and thru-hikes that now average around $10,000 to $11,000.Mac also shares how Halfway Anywhere became his full-time work, what more than a decade of PCT survey data reveals about backpacking gear, why experienced adventurers have to work harder to find the unknown, and what he is planning next in Japan.Before the interview, I recap running an 18:52 5K in Crocs and explain why the weird goals nobody else understands can sometimes be the most meaningful.Learn more from Mac at Halfway Anywhere: https://www.halfwayanywhere.com/Support our Sponsors: Sawyer: https://sawyerdirect.net/Janji (code: Freeoutside): https://snp.link/a0bfb726CS Coffee: CSinstant.coffeeGarage Grown Gear: https://snp.link/db1ba8abSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside#Trailrunning #Runningnews #Outdoors #Outdooradventure

This week, Jessica and Sonia are accidentally dressed alike—again—and immediately dive into the very serious injustice of planning a perfect all weather outfit. Jessica shares her brief journey into Facebook Dating, where the options are endless, including at least one man whose background check came with an actual mugshot. Meanwhile, Sonia has reached the “I have Googled parenting strategies because apparently five is the new fifteen” stage of motherhood. She introduces Jessica to a method of parenting that treats defiance like a tactical operation—but with compliments, connection, and significantly less emotional damage than others she's found. Sonia puts the method to the test after Annabelle swings from the antlers of a carousel deer at Funtown, while Jessica shares how she helps Hayden “push the mad out.” They also discuss the pressure millennial moms feel to be endlessly present, emotionally regulated and enthusiastically available for imaginary play—even though their own parents mostly told them to go outside, drink from the hose and return when the streetlights came on.

Hosts Willis and Kevin riff through a fast, funny inventory of cultural oddities that somehow stuck: pet rocks, Chia Pets, Crocs, and sandals-with-socks. Between goofs about sock puppets, Anita Baker, and wine bottle stoppers, they trace how silly novelties became moneymaking trends. The conversation bounces from garage-sale nostalgia to household quirks, with recurring bits about marital teasing, fart blame games, and nostalgic movie references. This episode is equal parts nostalgia and snark: a lighthearted look at how dumb ideas gain traction and why people keep buying into them despite their ridiculousness.

Joey got called out at Costco for wearing Crocs without the straps in “sport mode,” Nancy had a dream about Joey's friend working on her farm, and Karly admitted she cried over an animated whale video she found on TikTok. Nancy played audio of her son Ben after he came out of anesthesia from surgery on his arm. He spent an hour singing everything from “Ice Ice Baby” to the national anthem, declared that 2+1 equals "six seven", and somehow mixed up Caitlin Clark with Lewis and Clark. Hot Tea: Morgan Wallen’s tour is on pace to become the highest-grossing country tour ever. Ella Langley tied major chart records with “You Look Like You Love Me. A mime was arrested after allegedly harassing people, covering himself in cooking oil, and acting suspiciously on a walking trail. Joey scored major husband points after tracking down one of Costco’s viral Esprit sweatshirts for his wife. The conversation turned into a nostalgic trip through 90s fashion, including Benetton, Umbro, Tommy Hilfiger overalls, Doc Martens, and Mossimo. Nancy is going to see The Odyssey with her family (including her 13-year-old) tonight. Karly is excited that she got tickets to the movie’s special IMAX format. Joey wants to read the story but in modern words. Lucky 7 for $50 to the Copper Cellar Family Restaurants The show celebrated the World Toe Wrestling Championships by hosting their own live toe-wrestling match. Nancy “Big Toe Energy” faced Karly “The Piggy Punisher” in the match. Bob Yarbourgh from 98.7 NewsTalk gave play-by-plays. A Knoxville woman made news after giving birth in a car near a local car wash before reaching the hospital. The story sparked listener calls about babies being born in parking lots, on highways, and other unexpected places. What Makes You Special? We are Paranormal Scuba Divers!

Apparently, my identity change has a dress code: tie-dyed Crocs.I wore them for the final nine miles of a 100-mile race after my shoes, legs, and better judgment had all filed separate complaints.Funny story? Absolutely.A motivational “never quit” lesson? Nope.I'm proud I finished Jackpot Ultras, but I neglected the strength, mobility, and yoga that help keep me healthy. My body gave me information I did not want, and I kept walking anyway. Sometimes stubbornness looks like resilience... and sometimes it is simply stubbornness with a buckle waiting at the end.What happened afterward was interesting:Recovery meant months of biking instead of running. Running is where I process life, so I did not just lose training... I lost one of the places where I feel calm, confident, and most like myself.Then I quit my job.Career change. Identity change. No fixed location. No neat long-term plan. Just me, recording from my truck while my brain operates like a browser with 37 open tabs and mystery music playing somewhere.In this solo episode of The Evolving Adventurer Podcast, I share four questions helping me through this life transition:What role changed?What story am I attaching to it?What small piece of evidence can I create this week?Who can support me without taking over?That last one is still a work in progress. Guess what? I am, too.Unfinished is not the same thing as imaginary.Discomfort is not automatic proof that you should push harder. It may mean practice, prepare, pause, ask for help, or change direction.The episode is live right now. This is what is happening right now in my life. Follow for the unfinished chapters—not just the polished stories told five years later after .What role has changed for you, and what are you practicing now?#TheEvolvingAdventurer #LifeTransition #IdentityChange #InjuryRecovery #Ultrarunning

It's the special weekend “Get It Off Your Chest” episode – completely unedited, totally random, and full of the kind of nonsense you'd never get away with on normal radio. Katie admits she's convinced she'll die alone and be eaten by her cat… before the gang launch into the great cats v dogs war, and a surprisingly heated row over the most vile word in the English language. Then it's brand snobbery at its finest: Heinz vs Chef ketchup, HP vs YR brown sauce, Lyons vs Barry's – and why some people deserve jail for “red sauce”. And finally, Katie commits the ultimate sin… she buys her daughter pink Crocs.

This week, Scheana is joined by her close friend and favorite hiking buddy, Simon Curtis, for a conversation that goes everywhere—from Crocs and Hollywood heartbreak to open relationships and Scheana's doppelgänger, Britney Spears. Simon opens up about surviving leukemia, living with vitiligo, and the surprising treatment that changed his life, while also sharing what it was really like navigating the early 2000s entertainment industry as a young gay actor. The two swap audition war stories, reveal the career-defining role Simon walked away from, and discuss the pressure to hide who he was at the height of his Nickelodeon career. Then they dive into Simon's open relationship with his partner Jhor, tackling the biggest misconceptions, how radical honesty strengthened their relationship, and what it's really like being partnered with someone in the adult entertainment industry. Plus, Simon reminisces about winning a Britney Spears fan contest, Scheana reveals how she once won a Britney lookalike contest, and the two share some surprising stories about the superstar performer.

America is celebrating its 250th birthday... and naturally The Rizzuto Show immediately derails the conversation by asking the only question that matters: what ridiculous stuff deserves to survive another 250 years? This daily comedy show goes completely off the rails as the crew debates whether future civilizations need Crocs, Stanley Cups, Ring doorbell raccoon footage, Shake Weights, CVS receipts, a single lost AirPod, Nicolas Cage himself, or maybe just Dolly Parton's legendary wigs.Speaking of Dolly, Lern dives into Dolly Parton's brand-new Tennessee travel stop, complete with BBQ, showers, merch, sparkling guitars, and enough Southern charm to make every interstate exit jealous. The conversation quickly snowballs into which musicians deserve their own themed truck stops around America, leading to debates over Nelly, Chuck Berry, Metallica, KISS, and who really owns Missouri music history.Then it's celebrity chaos as the crew breaks down the latest rumors surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's reported multi-day wedding celebration. Is Madison Square Garden really the right place? Is America being upstaged during its own birthday? And how much New York traffic can one celebrity wedding possibly create?Music fans also get plenty to chew on with Bring Me The Horizon's brutally heavy throwback release, Jason Momoa reflecting on hosting Black Sabbath's farewell celebration, memories from Ozzy Osbourne's final performances, Metallica box sets, Chris Cornell reissues, and new albums worth checking out.The celebrity news doesn't stop there. Chet Hanks hilariously leans into his own reputation in a new commercial, Kylie Jenner faces another lawsuit, Prince William officially joins the billionaire club, and the crew remembers legendary Blood, Sweat & Tears vocalist David Clayton-Thomas while celebrating one of classic rock's greatest voices.Movie fans aren't left out either. The gang reviews early reactions to Supergirl, talks James Gunn's DC universe, discusses the latest Jackass film, and previews some surprising new releases hitting theaters and streaming.As always, Crap on Celebrities wraps things up with birthdays, entertainment headlines, questionable opinions, and the kind of completely unnecessary debates that somehow become the highlight of every episode.If you enjoy pop culture, weird news, rock music, celebrity gossip, and conversations that spiral from national history into Dolly Parton truck stops in record time, this daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of beautiful nonsense you've come to expect.Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your day. Whether you're commuting, working, pretending to work, or hiding from your responsibilities, we're happy to provide the soundtrack for your poor life choices.One more thing…If you could put ONE item into America's time capsule that won't be opened until 2276... what would it be?That's the question.And yes, someone absolutely suggested a Big Mac.Because of course they did.This daily comedy show wouldn't have it any other way.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/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.
On this episode of The Rizzuto Show, the crew starts with Midwest weather complaints before spiraling into giant backyard mushrooms, haunted furnaces, exploding thermostats, and the realization that owning a home is basically paying to discover new noises every week.Summer chaos is in full swing as the gang debates public pool etiquette, questionable beach water, Fourth of July celebrations, fireworks, and another unforgettable night at Captain Jim's Fireworks—complete with hilarious listener encounters and one brutally honest kid who absolutely roasted Rafe.The nonsense keeps rolling with bizarre news, including an update on internet-famous Michael Phillips, an unbelievably awkward wine-smuggling attempt, and a discussion about what ridiculous items deserve a place in America's 250th anniversary time capsule. Crocs? Stanley Cups? Ring doorbell raccoon videos? Nicolas Cage? Nothing is off the table.Plus, there's plenty of celebrity and entertainment talk, including Dolly Parton's new Tennessee travel stop, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding rumors, Bring Me The Horizon, Ozzy Osbourne memories, Metallica, movie news, and the latest edition of Crap on Celebrities.As if that wasn't enough, the crew dives into Europe's newfound obsession with ranch dressing, secret snack stashes, dirty sodas, early-bird dinners, and another unforgettable E-Memoriam featuring catalytic converter thieves, HVAC headaches, and an action-movie version of Colonel Sanders that nobody asked for—but everyone needed.It's another completely unhinged episode packed with weird news, pop culture, sarcastic commentary, rock music, ridiculous hypotheticals, and friends roasting each other for nearly three hours.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/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Why Should You Shower Before and After Swimming?These Georgia beaches have elevated levels of fecal bacteriaBest & Worst Places for 4th of July Celebrations (2026)Man with 'world's smallest penis' makes heartbreaking admission about having a micropenisInmate Cops To Smuggling Wine In VaginaMaryland woman upset over Taco Bell wait time allegedly flashed gun, challenged workers to fight outsideNJ man shockingly finds delivery driver's dentures in his Jersey Mike's cheesesteak, bizarre lawsuit claimsDisastrous funeral service ended with mortuary employee sitting on casket that wouldn't closeNaked man arrested on I-85; deputies say mental health treatment is priority after arrestSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Is fashion art? Why is archive fashion everywhere in 2026? Have designers created anything genuinely new since 1970—and what do postwar Paris, May 1968, 1970s punk, quiet luxury, vintage clothing, fashion TikTok, and the decline of print magazines tell us about how people dress now?On this episode of Pair of Kings, Sol and Michael sit down with Dr. Alexis Romano, fashion historian, writer, curator and professor at Parsons School of Design, for a conversation about fashion history, modern fashion trends, and the forces that turn clothing into culture. Alexis studies twentieth-century fashion, photography, women's history, clothing archives, and everyday dress. Her book, Prêt-à-Porter, Paris and Women: A Cultural Study of French Readymade Fashion, 1945–68, traces the rise of French ready-to-wear after World War II through garments, Vogue and Elle, film, photography, oral history, and the lives of women who bought and wore the clothes.The conversation begins with a fit check spanning Rick Owens, Crocs, selvedge denim, and a vintage Mollie Parnis Ultrasuede set before asking whose clothing gets preserved as fashion history. Museums often prioritize haute couture, luxury fashion, and famous designers, while everyday sportswear, workwear, ready-to-wear, and heavily worn garments disappear. Alexis explains why ordinary clothing and oral history create a richer record.Sol, Michael, and Alexis trace French prêt-à-porter and its tension with haute couture. They discuss how postwar modernization, technology, urban life, New Wave cinema, fashion magazines, photography, and changing ideas about women shaped the modern fashion industry. They examine how ready-made clothing became fashionable rather than merely practical, why casual dress grew alongside social liberalization, and how fast fashion represents the latest stage of a much longer ready-to-wear system.That history leads directly into the fashion landscape of 2026. Why do many well-dressed people now choose either expensive designer clothing or vintage and secondhand clothes? Why are the 1990s and Y2K still being recycled? Has archive culture made younger consumers more historically literate—or convinced them that old clothes are automatically better than new design? The episode connects the 1970s “beige decade” to The Row-era minimalism, natural-looking materials, texture, tactility, pared-back luxury, and the quiet-luxury conversation. Alexis breaks down the decade's competing trends: American sportswear, punk fashion, disco style, polyester, plastic, lamé, bold color, natural fabrics, wide-leg trousers, and Ultrasuede. Contradictory aesthetics existed at once—much like today's mix of minimalism, maximalism, streetwear, high fashion, and microtrends.A major section asks the central question: is fashion art? The group discusses The Met Costume Institute's 2026 Costume Art exhibition, the Museum at FIT, the Whitney Museum, MoMu Antwerp, and the growth of museum fashion exhibitions. Rick Owens becomes a case study in how a garment can be a consumer product, collectible design, personal uniform, museum object, and artwork at the same time. They also discuss Yohji Yamamoto exhibitions, the boundary between a fashion store and an art gallery, museum merchandise, and why fashion may be “the art of the people”—an art form audiences can wear, touch, collect, alter, and recognize in their own closets.This episode is part of Pair of Kings' exploration of “integrated fashion”: the idea that brands increasingly operate across clothing, art, media, music, fragrance, retail, technology, museums, and lifestyle, while consumers build wardrobes around their hobbies, identities, communities, and references. Fashion is not only what appears on a runway. It is also what gets worn, photographed, posted, remembered, collected, studied, resold, copied, preserved, and eventually called history.Whether you follow high fashion, menswear, streetwear, archive fashion, vintage clothing, fashion TikTok, fashion magazines, modeling, editorial photography, independent designers, museum exhibitions, or fashion theory, this conversation offers a practical history of how taste is made—and asks what parts of modern fashion culture will still exist for historians fifty years from now.Alexis is collecting fashion oral histories and personal fashion autobiographies for her research. Find her at @dressondisplay and AlexisRomanoProjects.com.We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording.Lots of love,SolSol Thompson and Michael Smith explore the world and subcultures of fashion, interviewing creators, personalities, and industry insiders to highlight the new vanguard of the fashion world.

This episode was originally published on June 23rd, 2025. In the Fly Box this week, we have some interesting requests, including many questions about leaders and tippet. What fly line should I use on my Helios 2 rod for dry-fly fishing? What can I do to prevent my tippet from kinking? What can you do when small stream trout refuse your fly? I have been using heavier tippet and seem to be doing just as well as with lighter tippet. What is your take on this? Is there a big difference between various brands of tippet material? Can I just add a tippet ring to my 9-foot 4X leader to make a nymph leader? Should the butt section of my nymph leader be made from fluorocarbon? What should I take on a multi-day fishing trip that I would not normally think of? Why am I foul-hooking so many trout and whitefish this year? What do you think of furled leaders? What rod should I get for my 8-year-old daughter? What rig should I start her out with? What do you think of Crocs as inexpensive wading shoes? What can you tell me about an older Orvis rod I purchased? How can I tighten the drag on an older spring-and-pawl fly reel? What is the deal with all these multi-fly rigs? Am I missing something by using a single fly? Do people fish for trout with poppers? Do I need sinking agents as well as flotants? At the end of my drift I stripped in a dry fly and got strikes. Should I change my setup and move my flies a bit?
