This episode starts innocently enough with a discussion about pools… and then immediately spirals into why swimming is actually disgusting once you think about it for more than five seconds. The crew debates pools vs. sport courts, whether owning a pool is worth the constant maintenance and rage, and why public pools are basically a social experiment that humanity keeps failing.From there, things get unhinged fast. The show dives deep into pool etiquette, including the rudest things people do at pools — peeing in the water (obviously), hogging lounge chairs, blasting music, letting kids run feral, and pretending chlorine is a personality trait. That leads to a full existential breakdown about how much pee is in pools, whether “pee-detecting chemicals” are real, and why kiddie pools and swim-up bars should come with warning labels.Somehow, this turns into a horrifying but hilarious conversation about lakes, rivers, float trips, cruises, dead bodies in water, bacteria, brain-eating amoebas, and why the phrase “the Earth cleans itself” is doing a lot of heavy lifting. If you've ever floated a river, swam at Lake of the Ozarks, or been on a cruise ship, you may never feel clean again.The back half of the show brings the chaos home with Do It Bitch, as Lern takes over hosting duties and throws the guys into competitive trivia involving music, bars, and venues — complete with trash talk, questionable rulings, cousin rivalry, and the looming threat of the airsoft gun.By the end, the only thing everyone agrees on is this: everyone is peeing in the pool, nobody's getting out to do it, and once you know that… there's no going back.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On today's 16th anniversary episode, I talk to Emmy Award-winning TV and comic writer and podcaster Elliott Kalan. Originally from Millburn, NJ, Elliott started as a PA at The Daily Show in 2003 and eventually worked his way up to head writer. In addition to The Daily Show, he's written for the Academy Awards, MST3K, Netflix's upcoming Ghostbusters cartoon and many other shows. As a comic writer, he's written Spider-Man and the X-Men, Harley Quinn and his own Maniac of New York, and as a podcaster, Elliot has been one of the three hosts of the wonderful Flop House, which has been running since 2007. This is just a small sampling of Elliott's CV, and the latest addition is his new book Joke Farming: How to Write Comedy and Other Nonsense, which was just published by University of Chicago Press at the end of last year!

Woody returns to the Bud Light Studio and suddenly it's 2013 again — except now everyone's older, colder, and way more into arguing about shoes. This episode of The Rizzuto Show is a full-blown comedy podcast reunion that spirals immediately into chaos, as Rizz and Woody pick up exactly where they left off… which is apparently roasting California people for being weak in the cold, questioning why scarves exist, and debating whether New Balance, Hokas, or Nikes are officially “dad shoes” this week.Things escalate quickly when the guys break down the modern shoe game, how trends make zero sense, and why no one under 25 wears no-show socks anymore. From there, it's a straight shot into the wild world of Facebook Marketplace deals that are absolutely stolen, including microwaves pulled from sketchy storage units and a $3,000 TV somehow purchased for $300. No red flags. Totally normal behavior.Then Woody casually drops the fact that he now flies planes — because of course he does. The conversation turns into stories about fighter jets, Thunderbirds, puke planes, skydiving disasters, and why his plane has a literal parachute for the entire aircraft. Somehow this leads to musicians who fly themselves to gigs, Dexter Holland from The Offspring being smarter than all of us combined, and Moon once again questioning every life choice that involves aviation.Just when you think things might calm down, the show takes a hard left turn into legendary Hotshots stories — glitter disasters, wet t-shirt contest bathwater, people doing unspeakable things in parking lots, and the horrifying realization that many of those memories are now over a decade old. It's uncomfortable, hilarious, and deeply on brand.This episode is everything you want from a daily comedy show: old friends, dumb arguments, unbelievable stories, and absolutely no attempt to stay on topic. If you like sarcastic humor, weird news energy, and conversations that feel like they should not be happening on the radio, this comedy podcast episode delivers.Hit play, laugh uncomfortably, and remember why this is your favorite comedy podcast to begin with.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Welcome to your daily comedy podcast, where absolutely nothing makes sense and we like it that way.Today's show kicks off with a story that nobody asked for but everyone will remember forever: a 73-year-old former born-again Christian reinventing herself as an escort named Busty Granny. She spent decades in prayer and celibacy, then hit 57, downloaded the internet, and said “oh… THIS is what we've been missing.” Now she's got clients young enough to still have homework and zero interest in OnlyFans because, quote, that sounds boring. Inspirational? Traumatizing? Both.Then we get into the most depressing career math of all time: a woman casually sings seven words into her phone for a Dr Pepper jingle and walks away with $2 million, while the rest of us are out here working full-time jobs and eating gas-station sandwiches. Naturally, this leads to the crew trying to invent jingles for every brand that will absolutely never call back.Somehow that spirals into one of the most fun debates we've had in a while — the biggest debut albums of all time. We're talking massive numbers, MTV miracles, and how one 4am spin turned a “failed” album into a 50-million-copy monster. Along the way we argue, forget basic facts, remember them loudly, and realize radio used to be way more powerful than TikTok will ever admit.Movies get dragged (respectfully… mostly), Brendan Fraser gets the comeback love he deserves, and we debate whether seeing a movie in a theater automatically adds two letter grades just because popcorn exists.Woody returns to the Bud Light Studio and suddenly it's 2013 again — except now everyone's older, colder, and way more into arguing about shoes.

And neither artist has shared an official reason for stepping away. Their exit comes just days after Ludacris also dropped out. His team called his original booking a "mix-up." The festival is headlined by Kid Rock and will feature Jason Aldean, Jelly Roll, Miranda Lambert, and more.In other Kid Rock News – he went to Congress to confront an issue we're all united on: How much Ticketmaster and Live Nation charge for shows.

MOVING ON INTO MOVIE NEWS:Matthew Lillard recently caught a stray from Quentin Tarantino when he said he didn't care for him. But that resulted in an outpouring of love that made Matthew feel like he was living through his own wake. Actress and producer Patricia Schneider has filed for divorce from Rob Schneider, describing their 15-year marriage as "irretrievably broken" with no chance of reconciliation. Bill Cosby has admitted under oath that he obtained prescriptions for Quaaludes specifically to give to women. Bruce Willis' wife, Emma says Bruce is unaware of his frontotemporal dementia diagnosis.AND FINALLYHere are five of the BEST:1. Jack Black: "I was begging my boss for an extra shift, he overheard and tipped me $100 on a $20ish tab. From then on, he never left me less than a $50 tip and would always check in with me when it was the end of the month to make sure I had rent cash."2. Harrison Ford: "My uncle said that he's incredibly nice and took the whole crew out for lunch to thank them for working on his helicopter."3.

It's another beautifully unhinged daily comedy show, and the Rizz Show crew wastes absolutely no time proving why we can't have nice things.First up: the City of St. Louis tries to do something wholesome by offering free salt at firehouses so people can prep for icy sidewalks. Sounds great, right? Wrong. Commercial trucks immediately roll in, scoop up everything like it's a Costco sample, and leave regular residents staring at empty piles wondering how humanity failed so fast. Libertarian pilot program: officially canceled.Then we shift to hockey fashion crimes as Moon gets roasted for wearing a Blues jersey that apparently doesn't meet corporate sponsor requirements. Nothing says “Stanley Cup pride” like being told to remove the most expensive shirt you own. Add cowboy hats, Monster Energy jokes, and a QuickTrip roast, and suddenly Blues Night is already off the rails.Things only escalate from there. Remember Chimp Crazy? Of course you do. Tanya Haddock is back in the news, appealing her federal prison sentence after lying about a chimp's death, hiding Tonka in a basement, and allegedly going on the run with him like some kind of primate-themed crime thriller. The crew debates whether “loving animals too much” is a legal defense while imagining U.S. Marshals finding a chimp in her prison cell.From there, it's census chaos. Missouri gained population — barely — and the crew tries (and fails) to guess how many people actually live in the state. Texas keeps stealing everyone, Idaho is apparently full of bunkers and cult vibes, and St. Louis gets dragged as one of the “ugliest cities in America” by a mystery comedian who clearly didn't hit the Zoo (it's free, by the way).We wrap with Valentine's Day pressure, lingerie shopping anxiety, nudie magazine nostalgia, and why buying your partner underwear is either romantic… or a trap.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Comedy Central once defined what mainstream comedy looked like.In this episode of Why Are You Laughing?, we break down the rise and fall of Comedy Central — how the network became the center of stand-up comedy, political satire, and boundary-pushing television, and why that dominance slowly unraveled. From Chappelle's Show and South Park to The Daily Show, we examine the shows that made Comedy Central essential viewing and the cultural moment that allowed them to thrive.We also look at Comedy Central's stand-up and roast catalogs, how the network shaped comedy careers, and why its influence over stand-up, political comedy, and pop culture began to fade as media habits changed. This episode isn't just about a network declining — it's about how comedy itself moved on.TIMESTAMPS3:39 Origin of Comedy Central5:51 Bill Maher & Politically Incorrect12:06 South Park from Trey Parker and Matt Stone19:29 The Daily Show with Jon Stewart31:46 Comedy Central Presents & their stand-up comedy cataloged40:27 Dave Chappelle & Chappelle's Show49:09 Comedy Central Roasts56:23 Tosh.0 + The Downfall1:00:55 Tough Crowd w/ Colin Quinn1:05:29 Norm MacDonaldFOR ALL THINGS BLIND MIKEhttp://blindmike.netFOR ALL THINGS CRAIGGERShttp://www.verygoodshow.orgFOR ALL THINGS HACKRIDEhttp://hackridethedemon.comFOR ALL THINGS DJ ELECTRA FRYhttp://djelectrafry.com

Welcome to another episode of The Rizzuto Show, the daily comedy show that proves nostalgia is just disappointment with better branding.Today's episode kicks off with the downfall of childhood “investments,” as Magic: The Gathering collectors accuse Hasbro of flooding the market and tanking card values — which immediately sends the crew spiraling into baseball card trauma. Remember when a Ken Griffey Jr. rookie card was supposed to pay for college, a house, and early retirement? Yeah… about that.From there, things take a turn toward the supernatural when we ask the important question: can a rock band curse an NBA team? After an arena employee blames a satanic-looking concert for the Orlando Magic's losing streak, we dive headfirst into modern Satanic Panic, Ghost's spooky theatrics, and whether teams should sage their arenas instead of practicing defense.Then it's off to Westeros, where the new Game of Thrones spinoff raises serious questions — like where everyone goes to the bathroom, why HBO is obsessed with realism in the weirdest ways, and whether giant fake dongs are now part of the network's brand strategy. Things escalate quickly as the crew debates gratuitous nudity, legacy characters, and which original GoT character would theoretically win a very unnecessary competition.The back half of this daily comedy show delivers a full round of Crap on Celebrities, including music collabs, Super Bowl ads released way too early, outrageous ticket prices, Dirty Dancing sequels, James Bond movies that aged like milk, and a Ken doll promo video that is genuinely unsettling. Add birthdays, pop culture hot takes, and classic Rizz Show derailments, and you've got another beautifully unhinged episode.If you like your pop culture commentary sarcastic, your nostalgia roasted, and your comedy slightly concerned for humanity — welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Welcome to The Rizzuto Show — the funny podcast that proves trivia is less about knowing answers and more about how loudly you can defend the wrong ones.On this episode, the crew dives headfirst into another round of trivia Matchup, a game designed to test knowledge, memory, logic, and emotional stability… and somehow only one of those things shows up. Moon, Learn, Rafe, and King Scott take turns absolutely torching their own credibility while attempting to answer questions that sound easy until your brain fully abandons you under pressure.We kick things off with Moon vs. Learn, a showdown that immediately spirals thanks to Barbie lore, calories, immortal honey, and the eternal question: what actually is a group of flamingos called? (Spoiler: nobody feels confident, but Moon feels confident anyway.) Marco Polo's nationality becomes a full vibe-based argument, Friends episode counts get wildly inflated, and logic is applied in ways science has specifically asked us not to.Then it's Rafe vs. King Scott, and this is where things truly get unhinged. Zodiac signs become public enemies, water signs are debated like conspiracy theories, and Rumpelstiltskin's straw-to-gold origin story is somehow made harder than it's been for centuries. Insulin, Yellowstone Lake, Johnny Carson, and the circumference of the Earth all take collateral damage as the crew confidently locks in answers that history itself disagrees with.What makes this episode special isn't who wins — it's how everyone loses just a little bit. The trash talk is elite, the confidence is unearned, and the logic is aggressively creative. This is The Rizzuto Show in peak form: loud, sarcastic, self-aware, and completely unbothered by being wrong as long as it's entertaining.If you love daily chaos, dumb confidence, and the sound of your own brain yelling “HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS?” at your speakers, this funny podcast is exactly what you signed up forFollow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSee 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 chaos begins at home when Rizzuto learns the hard way that “I got this” is not a substitute for training, tools, or common sense. What starts as a slightly off-track garage door quickly turns into a full-blown mechanical disaster involving bent pliers, fallen rollers, and the inevitable call to a professional who definitely judged him. From there, the confessions pour in — abandoned self-improvement goals, a dusty notebook labeled “Chapter One,” a sourdough starter that refuses to die, and financial decisions that now live in the “we don't talk about that” category.The show then zooms out to the larger failures we all share, including the soul-crushing realities of adulthood, homeownership surprises, third-shift vampire lifestyles, bad leadership, and raises so small they may as well be spread with a butter knife. Somewhere in the middle of all this, nostalgia sneaks in and emotionally uppercuts everyone as Rizzuto admits to crying in his underwear while watching old commercials that hit harder than therapy ever could.As if that weren't enough, the crew pivots into full pop culture chaos — childhood “investments” like trading cards collapsing in real time, satanic-looking concerts allegedly cursing sports teams, and HBO continuing its aggressive commitment to realism in the weirdest ways possible. Celebrity news, questionable marketing decisions, unnecessary nudity debates, and modern entertainment absurdities all get their moment in the spotlight.Then, just when you think things can't get more unhinged, trivia enters the chat. Matchup returns, and with it comes misplaced confidence, wildly incorrect answers, zodiac signs being publicly humiliated, Marco Polo logic that makes sense to no one, and historical facts taking repeated direct hits. Nobody truly wins, but everyone loses with confidence — which somehow feels very on brand.This is The Rizzuto Show at its best: funny, self-aware, slightly concerned for humanity, and completely comfortable being wrong as long as it's entertaining. If you've ever been confident, nostalgic, cursed, or loudly incorrect — welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOResearch City:‘Did you forget about us?': Riverview streets still covered after weekend snowNIGHT & DAY Night shift workers see just 29 minutes of daylight on a working day, new study findsWhy you'll get a ‘peanut butter raise' this year: What it means and how much to expect?Hasbro is being sued by its own shareholders for printing so many damn Magic cards, 'destroying the long-term value of the brand'Ghost Accused Of ‘Super Satanic' Curse After NBA Loss, Because Of Course They WereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Rizzuto fails the hard way that confidence is not the same thing as competence. In this episode of The Rizzuto Show, a slightly off-track garage door becomes a full-on life lesson when a “simple fix” turns into a catastrophic collapse involving bent pliers, fallen rollers, and one very humbling phone call to the professionals.What follows is a brutally honest (and hilarious) breakdown of everything that should not be done by normal humans without training — garage doors, electricity, plumbing, and apparently adulthood itself. From there, the show spirals beautifully into the Personal Failure Folder, where Rizzuto confesses to abandoned Duolingo dreams, a dusty notebook labeled “Chapter One,” a sourdough starter that survived since 2020, and crypto money that may as well be buried treasure.The crew dives into the real cost of homeownership, the soul-sucking realities of third-shift work, and the vampire lifestyle of never seeing daylight. They talk about snowed-in neighborhoods, leadership disasters, peanut butter raises at work, and why companies spread money like a sad layer of Skippy across too much bread.Somehow, this funny podcast also finds time to explore nostalgia-induced emotional breakdowns as Rizzuto admits to crying in his underwear while watching 1980s commercials on YouTube. Big Red gum, Zest soap, and Doublemint jingles unlock memories that hit harder than any self-help book ever could.It's a classic Rizz Show episode — equal parts self-roast, therapy session, social commentary, and warning label. If you've ever said “I got this” right before everything fell apart, this funny podcast is for you.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect 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.‘Did you forget about us?': Riverview streets still covered after weekend snowNIGHT & DAY Night shift workers see just 29 minutes of daylight on a working day, new study findsWhy you'll get a ‘peanut butter raise' this year: What it means and how much to expect?Hasbro is being sued by its own shareholders for printing so many damn Magic cards, 'destroying the long-term value of the brand'Ghost Accused Of ‘Super Satanic' Curse After NBA Loss, Because Of Course They WereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you've ever thought, “There's no way people are that mad about a commercial,” congratulations — this episode of The Rizzuto Show daily comedy podcast is here to prove you wrong. Matthew McConaughey teams up with Uber Eats, says the word “food” approximately 900 times, and suddenly fans are threatening boycotts like it's a political scandal. Welcome to modern outrage.This episode spirals immediately into everything you didn't know you needed today: debates about why German sounds angry, capybaras being weirdly adorable, and Arnold Schwarzenegger officially returning to the Predator universe — causing a measurable spike in global testosterone. Science can't explain it. We can.Then there's Kanye West, who just happens to issue a heartfelt apology for past behavior right before dropping a new album. Timing is everything. Is it sincere? Is it PR? Does anyone even care anymore? The crew breaks it all down with just the right amount of skepticism and side-eye.Things get even messier with Bert Kreischer's wildly inappropriate family sitcom, a free-solo climber scaling a skyscraper while America stress-texts each other, and Tyra Banks being retroactively questioned for her iconic (and unhinged) America's Next Top Model moments. Add in Jason Biggs explaining American Pie to his kid, Sydney Sweeney climbing the Hollywood sign in a bra, and a legendary porno birthday — and suddenly this funny podcast feels like therapy… but louder.If you want a funny podcast packed with celebrity chaos, pop culture commentary, sarcastic humor, and daily comedy show energy straight from St. Louis, this episode delivers exactly what your algorithm secretly wants.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOMatthew McConaughey has NFL fans up in armsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
We survived Snowpocalypse 2026, and honestly? We're not sure what learned more — our kids, our cars, or the ice-covered lakes behind Rizz's house.On this daily comedy podcast, The Rizzuto Show breaks down everything that happens when St. Louis shuts down for snow but nobody actually stays home. Roads are “fine,” side streets are chaos, drivers are going 18 mph out of fear of salt, and everyone suddenly claims they got 16 inches (spoiler: they didn't).Rizz brags about having the highway to himself, Lern avoids highways entirely for “peace,” and Moon learns that remote learning is basically a fake snow day loophole that somehow benefits the schools more than the kids. Meanwhile, Rizz's son drills into a frozen lake to test ice thickness like it's 1954, shovels driveways, and casually makes $100 — while his daughter sleeps until noon like a champion.This daily comedy podcast also tackles the important questions:Are parents still yelling at their kids to shovel? (Yes.)Is warming up your car actually necessary? (Mostly no.)Why does every snowstorm turn neighbors into snowblower-sharing maniacs?And who keeps exaggerating snowfall totals like it's a competition?Then things take a turn when the crew reacts to an internet meltdown involving someone who hid 100 tiny plastic ducks around their apartment to “test” their house cleaner. Is it genius? Is it psychotic? Is it the most passive-aggressive thing ever invented? The debate gets heated, suggestions get weird, and somehow topless duck-based cleaning businesses get pitched.There's also flamethrower regret, leaf blower snow removal hacks, scammy neighborhood kids who disappear with your money, EV battery anxiety, tire pressure panic, and a whole lot of parenting realizations that boil down to one truth: chore charts don't work — yelling does.If you love snow chaos, weird news, relatable parenting fails, and sarcastic St. Louis energy, this daily comedy podcast episode is for you.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow Hear The Rizz Show daily on 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSt. Louis residents dig out after winter stormShould you actually warm up your car in the extreme cold?

A daily comedy podcast where snowplows get shot, mommy farts save mental health, and modern dating officially makes no sense. Some shows ease you into the morning. The Rizzuto Show does Relationship Advice and kicks the door in with a story about someone firing a gun at a snowplow in Missouri — because apparently road rage now includes winter infrastructure. From there, things only get more educational… and by educational we mean learning that Harvard researchers say mommy farts might actually help regulate postpartum depression. Yes, really. Science is wild.This daily comedy show then takes a hard left turn into the disaster zone known as modern dating. Scott attempts to convince the room — and the audience — that saying “you enchant me” is a sexy, timeless compliment and not something said by a haunted Victorian doll. Spoiler alert: it does not go well. The crew debates whether romance is dead, whether dating apps ruined everything, and why Gen Z is now “vibe dating,” which sounds suspiciously like how humans used to meet before algorithms ruined love.From concerts and sporting events to rodeos, demolition derbies, and even Lowe's, the gang breaks down where people actually meet in real life — complete with horrifying throwback stories involving horse poop and missed romantic opportunities that still haunt them decades later. They also dive into why phone calls are extinct, why rom-coms lied to us, and whether knowing too much about someone upfront kills the magic entirely.This daily comedy show somehow manages to mix weird news, relationship talk, science, and pure nonsense into one long, hilarious spiral that feels exactly like hanging out with friends who should absolutely not be giving dating advice — but you're glad they are.If you want laughs, chaos, and a reminder that dating has always been messy (just with fewer apps and more horse crap), this episode delivers.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowMore from the show → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear it live: 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio | St. Louis, MOShots fired at Parkville snowplow in road rage attack New moms' farts may help with postpartum depression'Vibe Dating' Is Gen Z's New Compatibility Test.

Snowpocalypse 2026 shut down St. Louis… but it absolutely did NOT shut up The Rizzuto Show. This daily comedy show turns a winter storm into a masterclass in parenting chaos, snow-day economics, and the age-old tradition of yelling until chores get done.The crew breaks down how kids somehow turned shoveling driveways into six-figure energy, while adults debated snowblowers, flamethrowers, and whether warming up your car is real advice or just something dads say to feel useful. We get deep into AMI “remote learning” snow days (aka fake school), EV cold-weather panic, tire pressure paranoia, and why borrowing a snowblower is exactly like knowing someone with a boat.Then… the internet detonates over the most unhinged cleaning test of all time: hiding 100 tiny plastic ducks around your apartment to see if your cleaner did a “good enough” job. Is it genius? Is it psychotic? Is it a cry for help? The crew has thoughts — and they are not gentle.This daily comedy show also tackles snow shoveling trauma, neighborhood grifts, childhood manual labor, yelling as a parenting strategy, and why a properly deep-cleaned house feels like spiritual rebirth. If you survived Snowpocalypse, hired a cleaner, or yelled “WHO DOES THIS?!” at a bathroom sink this week — this episode is for you.This is The Rizzuto Show, your daily comedy show for weird news, St. Louis life, parenting fails, and laughing through the chaos instead of slipping on it.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO1 in 10 Gen Zers Have Asked ChatGPT To Help Diagnose an STDShots fired at Parkville snowplow in road rage attackNew moms' farts may help with postpartum depression'Vibe Dating' Is Gen Z's New Compatibility Test.

In this raw and unfiltered episode of The All About Nothing: Podcast Kinda Daily Show, Barrett Gruber and Bill Kimler pull no punches.After a quick check-in on snowstorm survival and Bill's New Year's health goals, the conversation turns to the urgent news of the day. The hosts issue a vital correction and deep-dive into the murder of Alex Pretti by federal agents, expressing total outrage over the justification of ICE's actions and the chilling public response to the shooting.They tackle the glaring hypocrisy in the gun rights debate, questioning why the "Second Amendment crowd" is often silent when federal overreach impacts peaceful protests. With sharp critiques of Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham, Barrett and Bill discuss the historical context of US immigration reform, the fear instilled in communities by government "Gestapo" tactics, and the desperate need for human rights to return to the forefront of political discourse.Key Topics: #AlexPretti #ICE #ImmigrationReform #GunRightsHypocrisy #TedCruz #LindseyGraham #PublicSafety #HumanRights #SocialJustice #AllAboutNothingPodcastBarrett Gruber | LinktreeBill Kimler | LinktreeThe All About Nothing: Podcast | LinktreeBlack White Blue in the South | Instagram, Facebook | LinktreeClick here for Episode Show Notes!As always, "The All About Nothing: Podcast" is owned and distributed by BIG Media LLC!Check out our network of fantastic podcasts!Click Here to see available advertising packages!Click Here for information on the "Fair Use Copyright Notice" for this podcast.Mentioned in this episode:BIG Media Copyright 2026BIG Media LLCZJZ Designs - St Patrick's Day ShirtsZJZ DesignsEverplay Spring 2026 LeaguesCheck out Everplay Sports and Social for the full list of the 2026 Spring Leagues and 2026 Late Spring Leagues!Everplay Sports & Social League

Sinners received 16 nominations; a record-breaking nomination count for the most in Academy Awards history. The supernatural thriller received nominations for best picture; director (Ryan Coogler); actor (Michael B. Jordan); supporting actress (Wunmi Mosaku); actor in a supporting role (Delroy Lindo); and original screenplay. Timothée Chalamet is 30 years and 26 days old, Chalamet just became the youngest male actor to receive three Oscar nominations since Marlon Brando, who achieved this feat at age 29 in 1954. Steven Spielberg has broken his own record for the most Oscar nominations as a producer, bringing his total to 14 with the nomination for Best Picture for the film "Hamnet." One Battle After Another received 13 nods, including Best Picture.The Snubs:The Cold Shoulder: The Biggest Snubs of the 2026 Oscar NominationsThe Wicked Witch of the West... Gone?The biggest shocker of the morning has to be the complete erasure of Wicked: For Good. Just last year, the first installment picked up 10 nominations. This year? Zero. Zilch.Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, who were both nominated for the first film, were completely shut out of the acting categories. Even the music branch turned its back on the franchise, ignoring the two new songs written specifically for the film. It seems the magic ran out for the sequel.Paul Mescal's Shakespearean TragedyIf you were betting on Paul Mescal picking up a nomination for playing William Shakespeare in Hamnet, you lost money today. While the film itself did well—and his co-star Jessie Buckley secured a nomination—Mescal was noticeably absent from the list. It's a tough break for an actor who has been a darling of the awards circuit lately.The Strange Case of Chase InfinitiHere is a genuine head-scratcher: One Battle After Another is a massive favorite, racking up 13 nominations. Yet, its breakout lead actress, Chase Infiniti, didn't make the cut. Some insiders think her limited screen time (she's in the movie for about 30 minutes) might have hurt her chances, but considering she's the heart of the film, her absence in the Best Actress category is glaring.Guillermo del Toro Gets the "Argo" TreatmentThe Academy clearly loved Netflix's Frankenstein—it scored nine nominations, including Best Picture. But they apparently didn't love Guillermo del Toro quite enough to give him a Best Director nod. The Directors branch is notoriously finicky, and this year, they left the beloved filmmaker off the list.Blockbuster FatigueAvatar: Fire and Ash failed to secure a Best Picture nomination, a category the previous two films sailed into easily. It seems voters might finally be feeling some Pandora fatigue.Star Power Didn't Save ThemBeing an A-lister didn't help anyone this morning.George Clooney & Adam Sandler: Their film Jay Kelly was completely shut out. Usually, a Noah Baumbach movie is catnip for voters, but this one came up empty.Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson: Despite a serious campaign for his dramatic turn in The Smashing Machine, he couldn't crack the lineup.Jennifer Lawrence: She gave a ferocious performance in Die My Love, but the film was likely too gritty and indie for the broader voting body.The show, hosted by Conan O'Brien, airs live on ABC on March 15th.

Winter Storm Fern is headed straight for St. Louis, and this daily comedy show proves once again that snow doesn't ruin cities — people do. As temperatures plunge and forecasts bounce between “maybe” and “we have no idea,” the Rizzuto Show breaks down how quickly society collapses when eggs, bread, and ground turkey disappear from shelves. From grocery store Thunderdomes and the unspoken moral obligation to help bag groceries, to the sheer chaos caused by long wallets and checks at checkout, this episode is a masterclass in winter-induced rage. Lines are down the aisles, cashiers are fighting for their lives, and Riz officially declares that refusing to help bag groceries during snow panic makes you public enemy number one. But that's just the beginning. This daily comedy show also dives into relationship limbo when someone writes in about dating a great guy who refuses to make a move. Is he shy? Nervous? Playing it cool? Or just happy with a peck on the lips and a friendship? The crew debates communication, honesty, and why sometimes you just need to say something… or answer the door naked. Then things get extra weird at the office. A guy gets accused of creating a “hostile work environment” by being too professional with female coworkers. Is he smart? Awkward? Playing it safe? Or just avoiding HR like a seasoned veteran? The discussion turns into a real look at modern workplace boundaries, misinterpretation, and why nobody feels like they can win anymore. And if that's not enough chaos, we cap it off with a wild story about a 14-year-old returning home with a full sleeve tattoo — courtesy of Cool Mom — leading to arrests, legal trouble, and one extremely popular middle schooler. Toss in horrifying tattoo regret stories, Spectrum internet panic, flamethrower snow removal ideas, and soup optimism, and you've got the perfect storm of midwest humor. This daily comedy show delivers relatable rage, weird news, and nonstop laughs — exactly what you need when you're snowed in, stuck in line, or watching someone pull out a checkbook in 2026.

Then Katie talks to Immigration and Civil Rights lawyer James Carleson about how the Trump administration is using immigration enforcement to unleash a broader techno-fascist agenda in league with Peter Thiel and the billionaires, which the Democrats enable.

https://daredaniel.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/SINGLE-TAKE_S01_E01_AtropiaMercy.mp3 Single Take with Daniel Barnes Episode 1 Atropia (2026; Dir.: Hailey Gates) GRADE: C+ *Now playing in the San Francisco Bay Area and other select markets. IMDB Synopsis: “Follows an aspiring actress working on a U.S. military base that simulates an Iraqi war zone.” Mercy (2026; Timur Bekmambetov) GRADE: C- *Now playing everywhere. IMDB Synopsis: “In the near future, a detective stands on trial accused of murdering his wife. He has 90 minutes to prove his innocence to the advanced A.I. Judge he once championed, before it determines his fate.” It’s a new year and a new podcast for world-famous film critic Daniel Barnes! Known for his provocative yet family-friendly brand of humor, Daniel brings along his beloved cast of puppet characters, including grumpy old man Walter, the irascible Achmed the Dead Terrorist, and Bubba J, a stereotypical NASCAR enthusiast…oh wait, that’s ventriloquist Jeff Dunham. Daniel Barnes is just a guy who reviews movies. This week, Daniel offers his Single Take on Alia Shawkat in Atropia, an overstuffed yet underdeveloped satire about an ambitious actress role-playing revolutionaries in elaborately staged war games. He also looks at Mercy, a sci-fi whodunit starring Chris Pratt as a cop-on-the-edge trying to find “the real killers” before artificial intelligence seals his fate. Listen along as Daniel begs mercy for January unicorns, CD-ROM murder mysteries and 20-year-old The Daily Show jokes. Read more of Daniel's reviews at Dare Daniel and Rotten Tomatoes, and listen to Daniel on the Dare Daniel & Canon Fodder podcasts. Keep checking back for more episodes of Single Take with Daniel Barnes. The post Single Take with Daniel Barnes – “Atropia” & “Mercy” appeared first on Dare Daniel & Canon Fodder Podcasts.
If you've ever screamed “JUST TELL US HOW MUCH SNOW” at your TV, congratulations — you're already emotionally prepared for today's daily podcast. Wait til you see the parenting challenges this guy admits to.On this episode of The Rizzuto Show, the crew spirals over wildly inconsistent snowfall predictions, Arctic wind chills, and the terrifying revelation that trees can literally explode when it gets too cold. Add in travel anxiety, Southern Illinois party drama, and weather forecasters refusing to “put their hogs on the table,” and we're already off the rails before the first hour.Then things get weirder.We break down a cemetery crime spree involving stolen bronze vases (bad luck speedrun), a Delta flight that soaked a passenger with de-icing fluid (new fear unlocked), and a love triangle that somehow involves one woman, two identical twins, and a brand-new boundary known as “the brother line.”As if that wasn't enough, we dive into a fertility clinic horror story where a couple gives birth to a baby that isn't genetically theirs — raising questions no one is emotionally equipped to answer at 7 a.m. And finally, we unpack an internet confession so uncomfortable, so oddly delivered, and so comment-section-fueled that it instantly joins the Rizz Show Hall of Fame.This daily podcast has everything: weather panic, a revisit to the great paper plate debate, cursed news, and the kind of conversations that make you say, “I should not have heard this… but I'm glad I did.” It's messy, it's hilarious, and it's exactly why the Rizz Show daily podcast exists.

He took a few publicity photos at different locations, including the behind the wheel shot, which he says is one of the silliest photos he's ever taken. Shatner says the actual commercial will be him inside a spaceship. Here are a few other Super Bowl commercials we can expect to see: 1.

A nostalgic Mexican food story spirals into gravity conspiracies, rogue elephants, and one of the most unexpected Chester Bennington memories ever shared on the show.On today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, what begins as harmless food talk—sushi boats, cupcakes, and the emotional closure of a longtime St. Louis Mexican restaurant—takes a legendary turn when Moon casually drops a story involving Chester Bennington and a wet chimichanga. From there, the rails are fully gone. Not loosened. Gone.This daily podcast does what it does best: take one real memory and pile on layer after layer of chaos. The crew mourns the loss of local institutions, debates why urgent care centers are multiplying like gremlins, and somehow finds themselves planning for a viral conspiracy theory claiming Earth will lose gravity for seven seconds in August. Helmets are discussed. Field broadcasting is considered. Matching outfits may be required.Things escalate further when the conversation shifts to a genuinely terrifying story about a rogue elephant on a multi-day rampage overseas, leading to the important realization that elephants are apparently both fast and sneaky—which feels unfair. Add in extreme cold weather prep, heartfelt reminders to check on elderly neighbors, and wildly inappropriate jokes about inheritance, and you've got the emotional range only The Rizzuto Show can pull off.As always, the gang balances the absurd with the oddly thoughtful. One minute it's doom-and-gloom apocalypse talk, the next it's a sincere discussion about community, local history, and why food memories hit harder than they should. Sprinkle in celebrity chaos, pop culture commentary, music debates, and self-roasting tangents, and this daily podcast becomes exactly what listeners expect: unpredictable, hilarious, and just structured enough to keep the FCC calm.If you're looking for a daily podcast that doesn't pretend to have all the answers—but is very confident while being wrong—this episode is for you. Come for the Chester Bennington wet chimichanga story.

Hello from Team Simon! We'll be back next week—January 27, 2026—with brand-new episodes of A Bit of Optimism. We're excited to bring you new guests, conversations, and opportunities to learn.Until then, we're diving back into the archives to revisit one of our favorite episodes from 2024, when comedian Trevor Noah joined the show… to get as serious as possible.Most Americans know Trevor as the former host of The Daily Show, a bestselling author, and a stand-up comedian. But his brand of humor isn't just a barrel of laughs— it's raw, witty, thought-provoking, and often makes you see the world in a whole new way.In this conversation, Simon and Trevor ditched the small talk (mostly) and went deep into the paradox of choice, the public's response to the murder of United HealthCare's CEO, and why the human experience might be defined by constraint.It will make you chuckle, think, and probably question everything all at once.This… is A Bit of Optimism.---------------------------For more on Trevor and his work, check out: https://www.trevornoah.com/

Speakers included Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart, Joan Baez, Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, and San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie.Poison's 40th Anniversary Tour is Off: Bret Michaels Wanted a Huge PaydayBad news for hair metal fans hoping to see Poison celebrate their big 4-0 this year: the tour has been scrapped.The band had been teasing a 40th-anniversary reunion for 2026, with frontman Bret Michaels previously hyping up a "perfect" 40-date run. But according to drummer Rikki Rockett, the plans fell apart at the negotiating table.The sticking point? Money. Rockett revealed that while he, guitarist C.C. DeVille, and bassist Bobby Dall were all ready to sign, Michaels demanded a much bigger slice of the pie. Specifically, Rockett claims Michaels wanted about 600% more than the rest of the band—essentially $6 for every $1 the others would make."You just can't work that way," Rockett said. He explained that while he loves playing, he doesn't want to work hard just to make someone else rich while he gets a fraction of the pay.Is there bad blood? Surprisingly, Rockett says no. He compared the situation to family, saying, "It's like hating your parents." He insists he isn't fighting with Michaels, they just couldn't agree on the business side of things.When asked if the band would consider touring with a replacement singer, Rockett shut it down, calling that a "last resort" and insisting there is no better frontman for Poison than Michaels.What now? For now, everyone is doing their own thing. Michaels has solo dates booked for 2026, and Rockett is touring with his side project, Rockett Mafia.Rockett did joke that maybe they'll try again next year, saying it would be a "perfect Poison folly" to do a 41st-anniversary tour instead.
