On this episode of Talking Guitars on Johnny Beane TV, we take a look at the new Jackson Pro Series Signature Phil Collen PC1-E, a Mexican-made version of Phil Collen's legendary Superstrat-style signature guitar. The Def Leppard guitarist has been working with Jackson for nearly 40 years, and the PC1-E brings his unique combination of Strat-style design, high-powered pickups, Floyd Rose tremolo, and onboard sustainer technology to the Jackson Pro Series. Phil says the PC1-E has “all the bells and whistles” and that you can get the sounds of a Strat, Les Paul, and more from a single guitar.

In his boisterous and entertaining memoir, Nigel Dick recounts his wild ride from record company motorcycle messenger to one of the world's leading music video directors. After a brief stint busking in the Paris Metro, Nigel Dick got his start in the music business at London's upstart Stiff label in the late '70s.

If you've watched MTV, you've seen his work.Music Video Mischief goes behind the scenes for a wild ride through the creative process, the egos, the politics and the logistics involved in making videos for A-listers. Dick shares entertaining tales of things going right and wrong, stars who were wonderful to work and stars who weren't, natural disasters, amazing triumphs and mad dashes around the world - all with self-deprecating wit and the enthusiasm of a lifetime music fan.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

What if some of rock history's biggest personnel decisions had gone the other way? What if Eric Clapton had joined The Beatles, Slash had landed the gig with Poison, Richie Sambora became a member of KISS, or Sammy Hagar never joined Van Halen?Author Mike Garam joins Booked On Rock to discuss Near Miss: Alternate Histories of Rock's Greatest Personnel Decisions, a fascinating exploration of the auditions, offers, lineup changes, and near-misses that could have completely rewritten rock history.We explore alternate timelines involving The Beatles, Van Halen, Poison, KISS, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Def Leppard, Ozzy Osbourne, and more. Could George Lynch have replaced Randy Rhoads in Ozzy's band? What if David Coverdale had joined Black Sabbath? Could Rory Gallagher have become a Rolling Stone? And what might have happened if John Bonham or Bon Scott had lived?Along the way, Mike examines more than who might have joined which band. We follow the ripple effects—the albums that might never have existed, the songs that could have sounded completely different, the careers that might have taken another path, and why musical chemistry and personality can matter just as much as talent.It's a trip through the crossroads of classic rock history where one decision could have changed everything.Purchase a copy of Near Miss: Alternate Histories Of Rock's Greatest Personnel DecisionsWatch/Subscribe Backstage Pass: All Excess channel on YouTube----------

What if one of 1985's most overlooked metal albums was not from the Sunset Strip at all?This week, Jay, Tim, and Chip dig into Holland's 1985 Atlantic Records debut, Little Monsters. The album won an 80 percent community runoff, and it became a first listen for all three of us. Featuring powerhouse vocalist Tom Holland and future guitar virtuoso Michael Angelo Batio, it is a tight 34-minute hard-rock record with equal parts melodic songwriting, technical guitar, Chicago identity, and mid-'80s major-label ambition.We get into the power-pop instincts beneath the riffs, Batio's surprisingly disciplined shred work, “Wake Up the Neighborhood” appearing in Girls Just Want to Have Fun, the album's strongest songs, and why Holland may have needed one more record to find its real commercial lane.If you love Cheap Trick, Vinnie Vincent Invasion, Enuff Z'Nuff, early Def Leppard, or overlooked '80s hard rock, this episode is for you.00:44: The poll result and Holland's underdog victory01:40: Holland's short history and Chicago roots02:22: Michael Angelo Batio before Nitro02:37: “Wake Up the Neighborhood” and its movie connection03:09: The album's best riffs, hooks, and influences04:04: What keeps Little Monsters from being a complete statement04:50: Final verdictSubscribe to Dig Me Out at digmeoutpodcast.com | Join the community at dmounion.comHave a lost or forgotten album that deserves the spotlight?

This week on the Scary Spirits Podcast, we journey into the frozen, windswept heights of the Himalayas to commemorate the anniversary of Hammer Films’ classic 1957 horror masterpiece, The Abominable Snowman, released on August 26th. A remarkable blend of suspense, mystery, and intelligent storytelling, this beloved Hammer Horror film remains one of the studio’s most intriguing cinematic achievements. Join your gracious hosts, Karen and Greg, as they venture into the shadows of this atmospheric tale, exploring its compelling themes, memorable performances, and enduring legacy in the world of classic horror cinema. From the elusive legend of the Yeti to the film’s thoughtful examination of mankind’s obsession with conquering the unknown, no icy footprint is left unexplored. Naturally, no expedition into the world of terror would be complete without proper refreshment. Along the way, Karen and Greg raise a glass of a specially crafted “Abominable Snowman” cocktail, a frosty and flavorful concoction inspired by the film’s chilling setting and legendary creature. Whether you are a devoted fan of Hammer Horror, a collector of classic horror films, or simply someone who enjoys discovering unique horror-themed cocktails, this episode offers a delightfully chilling excursion into one of cinema’s most fascinating monster tales. So gather close, steady your nerves, and join us as we uncover the mystery lurking beyond the snow-covered peaks. Some legends, after all, are best approached with caution… and a well-mixed drink in hand. Listen now and celebrate the anniversary of The Abominable Snowman with Scary Spirits Podcast, where classic horror and wickedly inspired cocktails meet. Abominable Snowman Cocktail • Sparkling Sanding Sugar For the rim, optional• 1 1/2 – 2 oz RumChata• 1 bottle Blue Cream Soda Instructions: If you are sugaring the rim of your glass, place the sanding sugar in a shallow dish. You can dip your finger in water and rub it around the rim or you can use a slice of lemon to go around the rim — you just want it to be slightly damp so the sugar will stick. Fill a highball glass with ice and then pour the RumChata over the ice. Slowly pour the blue cream soda in to fill the glass. I like to float just another half-ounce or so of horchata over the top. Serve immediately. Source: foodfanatic.com A Brief Synopsis: The Abominable Snowman follows British botanist Dr. John Rollason as he joins a ruthless American showman, Tom Friend, on a dangerous Himalayan expedition to track down the legendary Yeti, leading to a tense clash between scientific curiosity and commercial exploitation. Some of the topics discussed and highlights of this episode include: Karen tells us about Tibetan butter tea. We lean about the famous 1951 photo of a Yeti footprint taken by Eric Shipton. The song “John Brown’s Body” is discussed. Karen makes a reference or two to the band Def Leppard. Can you start an avalanche by shouting? Dr. Karen tells us about altitude sickness.

Apparently one Friday show wasn't chaotic enough, so this episode brings together sports-radio confusion, Banana Ball insanity, celebrity disasters, '90s music nostalgia, Taylor Swift fandom, and an emotional goodbye that briefly forces The Rizzuto Show to experience genuine human feelings. Gross. The crew is coming off its takeover of The Fast Lane, where St. Louis sports-radio listeners turned on their radios expecting serious sports analysis and instead found… us. Confused texts start rolling in, Moon commits the apparently unforgivable crime of discussing soccer, and everyone discovers that sports-talk fans approach radio hosts with roughly the same restraint they bring to yelling at referees.From there, we head to Busch Stadium for the Savannah Bananas and the wonderfully ridiculous world of Banana Ball. No bunting. Batters can steal first. Ball four turns into a sprint. Fans can record an out by catching a foul ball. There's a Golden Batter. There are bizarre tiebreakers. Basically, somebody looked at baseball and asked, “What if this moved faster and people actually had fun?”That naturally sends us down the Steve Bartman rabbit hole, where we discover the infamous baseball was eventually purchased, publicly blown up and—because humanity had apparently not done enough—its essence was incorporated into pasta sauce. Sports fans remain completely normal.We also get into Rizz's upcoming first trip to Buc-ee's, the Gathering of the Juggalos, a drug bust involving a man with the incredibly discreet nickname Blunt Man, speeding, road rage and those tiny towns where the speed limit suddenly drops just in time for a police officer to welcome you personally.Then nostalgia attacks.A forgotten Rollins Band song sends Rizz straight back to the '90s, MTV and Beavis and Butt-Head, leading to an appreciation of Henry Rollins as perhaps the only man capable of delivering inspirational wisdom while looking permanently furious about it. Rafe even discovers the perfect soundtrack for the closet he apparently cries in.Once Crap on Celebrities gets rolling, things become significantly more expensive and legally complicated. Foo Fighters are joining AC/DC for a huge St. Louis show, which is incredible news right up until everyone remembers they'll eventually have to escape the parking lot. The crew also digs into the Michael Jackson biopic sequel, developments surrounding the Tupac murder case and reported Diddy allegations, questions surrounding changes to Biggie's mother's will, and Dane Cook revisiting the brutal discovery that his own brother embezzled millions from him.Nothing says family like alleged financial crimes.There's also God of War casting drama involving Dave Bautista, a public service announcement about a movie Moon thinks is absolute garbage, and a rundown of famous actors who reportedly couldn't stand each other while filming some of Hollywood's most beloved romances. Turns out all that incredible on-screen chemistry might occasionally just be two attractive people professionally suppressing rage.And then Courtney Diamond — aka Eight Ball — comes home.The former Rizzuto Show intern joins the crew ahead of the final TaylorMade tribute to Taylor Swift show, closing a chapter that grew into 45 performances across 28 cities. Courtney talks about knowing when it was time to end TaylorMade, remembering the nerves surrounding the first show and making sure the project went out while everyone involved still loved what they were doing.Things get dangerously sincere when Courtney reflects on her time working with the show and tells Rizz that one of the lessons she carried with her was watching him treat people well and thank her for her work every day as an intern.Don't worry. Everyone immediately starts making jokes before Rizz can develop an emotion.Courtney also explains how a die-hard Def Leppard and '80s hair-metal fan became a massive Taylor Swift fan, why Swift's songwriting won her over and where even a dedicated Swiftie draws the line when it comes to merch drops, album variants and the Taylor Swift business machine.Then we enter the terrifying world of parasocial fandom.The crew debates fans driving 12 hours just to stand outside a celebrity wedding, Courtney admits to incorporating some Def Leppard sightseeing into her honeymoon, and even one of the biggest Swifties we know arrives at an important conclusion:Some Swifties need to chill.Finally, Courtney looks ahead to the emotional final TaylorMade performance and talks about what it feels like to deliberately close something she's spent years building. She doesn't know exactly what comes next—and for once, nobody needs to turn that into a five-year plan.It's sports, weird news, celebrity gossip, music memories, St. Louis chaos, Taylor Swift, Juggalos, Banana Ball, family betrayals, emotional farewells and enough wildly unnecessary side conversations to remind everyone why The Rizzuto Show remains your daily comedy destination.Basically, we laughed, we learned, we almost had feelings, and somewhere along the way Blunt Man got arrested.Another productive day.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.St. Louis City considers demolition of fire-damaged church, home to non-profit's skate parkFour arrested on drug charges tied to Gathering of the Juggalos near Macks CreekMargaret Qualley Just Wore Those Controversial Chanel Shoes for The Dog Stars PremiereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're getting dangerously sincere on today's funny podcast, because former Rizzuto Show intern Courtney Diamond — better known around these parts as Eight Ball — is back in the studio before closing one enormous chapter of her life.Courtney's TaylorMade tribute to Taylor Swift is performing its final show at Delmar Hall, ending a run that grew far beyond where it started. Over the course of TaylorMade, Courtney and the band performed 45 shows across 28 cities, taking the production from its first nervous night at The Wildey Theatre to venues and audiences around the country.Courtney explains that there wasn't one giant dramatic reason. Sometimes you just know when it's time. More importantly, she wanted TaylorMade to end while everyone involved still loved doing it. Apparently “leave while you still enjoy each other” is an option. Somebody should tell every band that has announced a fourth farewell tour.She remembers the pressure surrounding TaylorMade's first performance and the moment she heard the crowd erupt before she even walked onstage. What started with nerves turned into something much bigger, especially for the young Taylor Swift fans who came dressed for the occasion—and the dads sitting off to the side pretending they absolutely weren't getting into it.Naturally, Rizz and Rafe immediately improve Courtney's carefully planned final show by pitching an ending involving Rafe dressed as Travis Kelce carrying her offstage.Things then get suspiciously heartfelt when Rizz asks Courtney how working at The Rizzuto Show affected her life. She credits her time in radio with making her tougher and talks about learning from Moon, Jeff and Lern before revealing something that nearly destroys the entire sarcastic ecosystem of the program: Rizz taught her something genuinely meaningful.Courtney remembers Rizz thanking her for her work at the end of the day when she was an intern and says the experience taught her that no matter how successful you become, you should still treat people well.Everybody quickly makes jokes before Rizz experiences a recognizable human emotion.Thank God.Then we get into the contradiction that makes Courtney's Taylor Swift obsession even better: she's a die-hard '80s hair-metal fan with a Def Leppard tattoo who generally doesn't care for modern pop music.Courtney explains why Swift's songwriting broke through her rock-and-roll defenses, particularly the storytelling and honesty in her lyrics. That inevitably launches the crew into another debate surrounding the business empire attached to Taylor Swift.Variants. Exclusives. Merch drops. Swifties monitoring website changes like NORAD watching the sky.Courtney understands the criticism surrounding the relentless merchandising while also making a fairly important point: nobody is physically forcing you to buy the fifteenth version of an album. Being a Swiftie apparently requires both emotional stamina and a functioning household budget.The funny podcast then dives headfirst into parasocial fandom following the massive attention surrounding Taylor Swift's wedding. Courtney gives her perspective as an actual hardcore fan, including her surprise over aspects of the guest list and the sheer spectacle surrounding the event.Rizz, meanwhile, remains fascinated by fans who drove enormous distances just to stand outside.One mother drove 12 hours from Indianapolis with her daughter to be near the celebration despite having no actual access to the wedding. In extreme heat. After getting the kid out of bed at 2:00 in the morning.Rizz has some thoughts.Courtney admits she understands a little bit of celebrity tourism. Her own honeymoon included visiting Def Leppard-related locations around Sheffield and convincing her extremely patient husband to drive around a village on the off chance they happened to spot bassist Rick Savage.Finally, the conversation returns to the reason Courtney is there—the final TaylorMade show. She explains why knowing the ending was coming gave her time to appreciate the last year, how bittersweet the final performance feels, and why she's both excited and devastated to say goodbye.It's an episode about knowing when to close a chapter, appreciating what you built, fandom getting completely out of control and discovering that underneath all the sarcasm, The Rizzuto Show might actually care about each other.Disgusting.Just the kind of emotional damage you expect from your favorite funny podcast.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.

The morning begins with Lern trying to figure out whether Hubbard Media has a sewage problem or whether she personally needs to reevaluate some life choices. Thankfully, the mystery quickly leads us to Florida, where somebody learns one of nature's most important rules the hard way: do not jump on a manatee. Especially when you haven't taken the time to determine whether said manatee is, you know… alive.Rizz remembers the beautiful bonding experience of having baby vomit deposited directly into his mouth. Moon recalls an athletic encounter with an impressive amount of dog poop. And then Rafe casually unlocks a repressed memory from his days working in surgery that probably should've stayed repressed. There's gangrene. There's a sterile operating room. There's vomiting. There's mint extract that arrives WAY too late. At one point, breakfast officially files for divorce.Eventually, Rizz attempts to drag this funny podcast out of the biological danger zone by choosing joy. Unfortunately, he's Rizz, so even his daughter thanking him for making dinner turns into an existential crisis involving garlic, dementia, stuffed animals, retirement in Florida, and an imaginary future son-in-law handling his estate. Normal father-daughter stuff.Then we actually get GOOD NEWS. St. Charles runner Emma Kessler thought she'd be tackling a half marathon without her boyfriend Jason, who repeatedly insisted running wasn't his thing. Turns out Jason had secretly trained for months so he could surprise her and run alongside her. It's sweet. It's supportive. Nobody gets covered in anything. Naturally, Rizz's immediate concern is that this man is making every other partner look terrible.Apparently Gen X isn't going to enough concerts, so today we're solving the live music industry one folding chair and bottle of ibuprofen at a time.A concert promoter asking what it would take to get Gen X back out to shows. The answers? Bring back physical tickets. Give us cleaner bathrooms. Stop making everything cost approximately one kidney. Fine bands for showing up late. And while we're making demands, how about concerts that start at 3 p.m. and wrap by 6 so everybody can be home, showered and questioning their life choices before the evening news?The crew gets into the bigger problem facing live music right now, from third-party ticket sellers and ridiculous resale prices to mid-level artists trying to survive while fans blow their entire entertainment budget on one or two giant shows. Foo Fighters are stepping in to open for AC/DC in St. Louis, which leads to the very important question of how long the Foo Fighters actually get to play when they're technically the opener. There's also an update on Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell and his continued battle with Hodgkin's lymphoma.The Jack White and Charley Crockett drama continues after Twin Temple was removed from dates on Crockett's tour. Jack White defended the band, Crockett fired back, White responded with a bizarre musical troll, and suddenly everybody is keeping track of who released more albums. Rafe likes Crockett's music but would also like everyone involved to calm down and simply make songs again.Then Demon Hunter enters the chat. The Christian metal band is suing over the KPop Demon Hunters name, arguing that the massive Netflix property and its live-event expansion could create confusion with their long-established band. King Scott once saw the band demon hunter perform KPOP.The Missouri State Fair has given us many things over the years, and today we can add freeze-dried pickles capable of removing every drop of moisture from the human body to the list.Then we return to one of the most important educational developments of our generation: Fart Corner.The teacher whose classroom fart corner went viral has responded to all the attention and clarified her intentions. Apparently, kids today have significantly less shame about letting one rip in class, so she created a designated location where students can handle their business and return to society. Fart Corner is now also The Gas Station.Then it's time for King Scott to host Matchup With Moon, and whatever intellectual credibility remained in the studio immediately leaves through the emergency exit.Rizz and Moon battle through trivia involving the longest-running television game show, Walter Mondale, the PGA Hall of Fame, malware and the Rice Krispies mascots before King Scott drops the Millard Fillmore tiebreaker.Round two somehow gets worse. The guys tackle the undefeated Miami Dolphins, continents, Louis Armstrong, bowling terminology and the origin of Spam. “Spiced ham” should have been easy, but instead we get guesses including separated ham, spectacular meats, special mail and surplus meat.Then comes the Great Bowling Debate of 2023.Another episode of daily comedy from The Rizzuto Show.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.Boyfriend Secretly Trains For Two Months To Surprise Girlfriend and Run Alongside Her in Dreaded First Half-MarathonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Apparently Gen X isn't going to enough concerts, so today we're solving the live music industry one folding chair and bottle of ibuprofen at a time.Episode 112 kicks off with a concert promoter asking what it would take to get Gen X back out to shows. The answers? Bring back physical tickets. Give us cleaner bathrooms. Stop making everything cost approximately one kidney. Fine bands for showing up late. And while we're making demands, how about concerts that start at 3 p.m. and wrap by 6 so everybody can be home, showered and questioning their life choices before the evening news?Welcome to the future of rock and roll: chairs.The crew gets into the bigger problem facing live music right now, from third-party ticket sellers and ridiculous resale prices to mid-level artists trying to survive while fans blow their entire entertainment budget on one or two giant shows. Rafe even pitches a concert subscription model where fans could pick shows from different tiers. Honestly, this comedy podcast may have accidentally stumbled into a legitimate business idea, which is deeply concerning.Then Crap on Celebrities arrives with enough music news to make everyone forget we were complaining about concerts five minutes earlier. Foo Fighters are stepping in to open for AC/DC in St. Louis, which leads to the very important question of how long the Foo Fighters actually get to play when they're technically the opener. There's also an update on Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell and his continued battle with Hodgkin's lymphoma.From there, we enter one of our favorite genres of entertainment: successful musicians arguing with each other on the Internet.The Jack White and Charley Crockett drama continues after Twin Temple was removed from dates on Crockett's tour. Jack White defended the band, Crockett fired back, White responded with a bizarre musical troll, and suddenly everybody is keeping track of who released more albums. Rafe likes Crockett's music but would also like everyone involved to calm down and simply make songs again.Naturally, the crew decides celebrity boxing may be the only mature solution.Then Demon Hunter enters the chat. The Christian metal band is suing over the KPop Demon Hunters name, arguing that the massive Netflix property and its live-event expansion could create confusion with their long-established band. Moon actually has history with that music scene, which means for approximately four minutes this show accidentally becomes informative.Don't worry. We recover.There's also new testimony surrounding the Tupac Shakur murder case, a conversation about Sons of Anarchy stars reuniting for a bizarre meta-series, and a trailer for Whale Fall that sends everyone directly into claustrophobic nightmare territory. The movie involves a scuba diver getting swallowed by an 80-foot sperm whale and trying to escape before his oxygen runs out.Lern's reaction to this horrifying premise? Maybe watching it will help her prepare in case she ever gets swallowed by a whale.That's preparedness you simply won't get from other podcasts.We wrap things up with Jason Statham's latest movie accidentally appearing online early, John Stamos apparently deciding clothes are optional, and a Robert Plant birthday celebration that turns into Zeppelin, solo Plant, giant '80s hair and the invention of the word “plantiness.”So yes, this comedy podcast begins with concert economics and ends with Robert Plant's plantiness. That feels about right.It's another morning of St. Louis comedy, music news, entertainment gossip, pop culture commentary and sarcastic humor from Rizzuto and the gang — the comedy podcast where no topic survives contact with the studio.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.

Great to reconnect with Phil Collen of Def Leppard. If you didn't know, he has some other projects outside of his main band. One of them is a band called Man Raze. Back in May, they dropped their Lock, Stock & Barrel (Complete Recordings 2008-2011) Phil tells me about that, along with another project he's in called Crossbone Skully with Tommy Henriksen of Alice Cooper, and the great Mutt Lange. As he brought that up, I had to ask him about the impact that Mutt had on Def Leppard. Let's just say that Phil gave Mutt a LOT of credit for their success. We talked about new music, upcoming tours, residencies, and lots more. Thanks to Phil for the time and to you for listening.

Remember when getting 11 albums for one penny seemed like a completely legitimate business model? Pepperidge Farm remembers. More importantly, Rizz remembers — because apparently Columbia House helped build the musical foundation of the man you hear yelling into a microphone every morning.Episode 52 starts with a guy who has somehow learned to sing a hit song backwards, melody and all, so that when the recording is reversed it sounds remarkably close to the real thing. It's impressive, unsettling, and exactly the kind of useless talent we deeply respect around here.Then nostalgia kicks the studio door off its hinges.Those Little Free Libraries have apparently evolved into Free Blockbusters — neighborhood boxes stocked with DVDs, Blu-rays and VHS tapes for people to take, trade and return. It's basically streaming for people who enjoy leaving the house and trusting strangers. Lern immediately wants one, complete with an old-school beaded curtain for the grown-up section, because apparently we're rebuilding the entire video store experience one suburban lawn at a time.And while physical media gets another tiny breath of life, the funny podcast says goodbye to an absolute legend: Columbia House.Yes. THAT Columbia House.The “11 albums for a penny” people.Also: they were apparently still around.Rizz takes us back to the golden era of putting an actual penny in an envelope, receiving a box full of music, getting bills in the mail and having the financial security of knowing, “What are they gonna do? I'm 11.” Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi helped build the Rizz starter pack, while Rafe reveals Columbia House was also apparently part of his mom's Christmas gift strategy.Nothing says “Merry Christmas” like potentially questionable mail-order accounting.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where the crew gets into the Tupac murder trial, an upcoming Elvis hologram experience in Vegas, Gillian Anderson's truly wild teenage arrest story, celebrity divorce becoming content, a Clueless sequel series, more Fast & Furious, and Ella Langley's monster chart run.Matthew McConaughey also delivers possibly the most Matthew McConaughey story ever: getting so high before his own birthday party that he sat in his car listening to Janet Jackson over and over until the party was finished.Everybody left.Birthday over.But that song? Apparently fantastic.Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell also kick the hornet's nest by discussing extreme Disney adults, because nothing brings the Internet together like telling grown people their favorite mouse might be a red flag.Meanwhile, Ella Langley's chart domination has the crew officially becoming “Ella fellas” and wondering whether she can finally defeat one of the most powerful forces in American culture: hearing the same Mariah Carey song every December until the sun explodes.And because this funny podcast occasionally invites people who actually know what they're talking about, Cardinals assistant GM and 2006 World Series champion Randy Flores joins the show to talk baseball and the Cardinals' Draft365: Scouting MLB's Future Stars, which pulls back the curtain on scouting, drafting and finding the organization's next generation of players.So Episode 52 has everything: St. Louis baseball, celebrity gossip, physical-media nostalgia, weird Internet talent, questionable teenage financial decisions and Matthew McConaughey losing an entire birthday to Janet Jackson.Another educational installment of your favorite funny podcast.We use the term “educational” very aggressively.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.

We're bringing back Blockbuster, burying Columbia House and somehow ending up inside the St. Louis Cardinals draft room. Just another morning where The Rizzuto Show refuses to pick a lane.First, a guy learns how to sing a hit song completely backwards so it sounds right when reversed, which is an incredible amount of effort dedicated to something gloriously unnecessary. Then we discover Free Blockbusters — neighborhood boxes where people swap DVDs, Blu-rays and VHS tapes like Little Free Libraries for people who still remember rewinding things.That sends us straight into a funeral for Columbia House, the legendary “11 albums for a penny” operation that helped build Rizz's music collection and apparently taught an entire generation of children their first lesson in questionable financial decisions. Rizz remembers physically mailing them a penny, getting Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi, then receiving bills while possessing the unbeatable legal defense of being approximately 11 years old.Plus, Crap on Celebrities delivers another pile of entertainment gossip and pop culture commentary before we bring in someone with actual credentials and briefly destroy the show's reputation.Cardinals assistant GM of scouting and acquisition and 2006 World Series champion Randy Flores joins the crew to talk Draft365: Scouting MLB's Future Stars and give us a fascinating look at how the Cardinals identify, evaluate and draft future players.Randy breaks down the absurd odds of making Major League Baseball, what scouts see beyond analytics, why struggling can actually reveal something important about a prospect, and how the Cardinals' nationwide scouting operation works. We get into Jordan Walker, Joshua Baez, the pressure facing young athletes and why parents convinced they're raising the next MLB superstar might want to let the kid drive the dream.And with the 20-year reunion of the 2006 World Series champion Cardinals approaching, Randy looks back while also explaining why the organization's current farm system has him excited about what's coming next.So we've got Blockbuster nostalgia, Columbia House childhood crimes, weird internet talent, funny celebrity gossip and legitimate Cardinals baseball insight all crammed into one comedy podcast.Basically, we start with VHS tapes and end with MLB scouting.There was no plan.There rarely is.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.Amazon Worker Calls Out Customers Who Keep Ordering This 1 Item—It's Really Annoying: ‘Stop Ordering This'Woman's Petty Response to $45 HOA Fines Has X Saying “Genius”Free Blockbusters are popping up to bring back physical mediaRemember 12 CDs for 1 cent?

Def Leppard's story is filled with massive hits, groundbreaking albums, incredible triumphs, and devastating setbacks. In this episode, author Scott Robinson joins me to discuss his book Def Leppard: Every Album, Every Song, part of Sonicbond's On Track series, and take us through the music and moments that shaped one of rock's most enduring bands.We dig into Def Leppard's early days in Sheffield, the influence of producer Mutt Lange, and the making of landmark albums like Pyromania and Hysteria. Scott shares the fascinating stories behind songs including “Photograph,” “Bringin' On the Heartbreak,” and “Pour Some Sugar on Me,” while we also discuss Rick Allen's remarkable comeback, what the band lost creatively with the death of Steve Clark, the reinvention of Slang, and overlooked later albums such as Songs from the Sparkle Lounge and Diamond Star Halos. Plus, Scott explains why, after more than four decades of tragedy, changing musical trends, and an evolving industry, Def Leppard remains one of rock's great bands of brothers.Purchase a copy of Def Leppard: Every Album, Every Song in the USPurchase a copy of Def Leppard: Every Album, Every Song in the UKFind more books by Scott Robinson----------

Will any of today's hit songs still be sung 50 years from now?Kurt, Tully, KLo, and Neil look back at the music that shaped them—from Hank Williams Jr., Van Halen, and Def Leppard to John Denver, Glen Campbell, Elvis, Bryan Adams, and Paul Rodgers—and debate whether modern songs are given enough time to become true classics.They also reveal how Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan's alternating stadium show works, explain why songwriters don't really “sell” individual songs, and discuss how streaming and shrinking attention spans have changed the way listeners experience music.Then things deteriorate—in the best possible way—with exhausted airport stories, Tully's confrontation on a plane, the dangers of flying with guitars, UPS losing a one-of-a-kind custom bass, Kelley mistaking his treadmill malfunction for an earthquake, and the strangest things fans throw onstage.Listen all the way through and remember the secret phrase: “Donk Toss.”______________________________________________________________________________________________SPONSORS: The Try That in a Small Town Podcast is powered by e|spaces!Redefining Coworking - Exceptional Office Space for Every BusinessBook a tour today at espaces.comFrom the Patriot Mobile studios:Don't get fooled by other cellular providers pretending to share your values or have the same coverage.

We look back at Heart's Beautiful Broken, Billy Talent's Afraid of Heights, the hard-rock detour of Chrome Division, and the long-awaited New York Dolls comeback album One Day It Will Please Us to Remember Even This. We also revisit Judas Priest's controversial Ripper Owens era with Demolition, the internal turmoil surrounding the Black Crowes' Three Snakes and One Charm, and Alice Cooper's star-studded Hey Stoopid.

Friday means landing the plane, but not before setting the cockpit on fire.On today's episode, the gang starts with weather talk like every respectable group of Midwestern dads before immediately spiraling into forgotten pool hoses, accidental water bills, and whether rain can actually improve your Friday. Moon almost floods the backyard, Mama Moon is back in the pool, and somehow the conversation only gets weirder from there.Then Riz makes the mistake we've all made—reading the comments.A simple ponytail somehow transforms him into Steven Seagal... then someone compares him to Big Ed from 90 Day Fiancé, and suddenly years of confidence disappear faster than free donuts in the break room. The crew debates whether internet trolls should ever win, whether Woody's opinion somehow matters more than thousands of listeners, and whether North Korea actually has better hairstyle options than Riz's barber.As if that isn't enough chaos, a terrifying parasite story sends everyone into an extended discussion about the absolute worst places to discover explosive digestive problems. Yellowstone. Airplanes. Funerals. Float tanks with anti-fart contracts. Nothing is safe, and somehow everyone contributes a nightmare scenario that makes the previous one sound pleasant.The travel conversation gets even better when Riz prepares for Europe and asks the age-old question: what's harder—vacationing with toddlers or grandparents? The answers involve Paris, catacombs, bad knees, paper-thin skin, confusing public transportation, and enough family travel anxiety to make you want to stay home forever.Later, the crew realizes they're officially becoming old people. Random grunts while standing up. Talking to themselves in grocery stores. Becoming obsessed with neighbors' lawns. Weather-predicting knees. And perhaps the most disturbing revelation of all… yes, "old person smell" is apparently real, and once the science gets involved, nobody leaves the conversation feeling younger.There's also celebrity rabbit holes, Rick Springfield somehow refusing to age, Def Leppard debates, bizarre internet searches, listener roasts, travel disasters, body noises, and the kind of completely unnecessary conversations that somehow become the funniest parts of the morning.It's exactly the unpredictable mess you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show—friends making each other laugh, roasting themselves before the internet gets the chance, and somehow turning everyday stories into absolute nonsense.If you came for organized radio, you're in the wrong place.If you came for sarcastic conversations, ridiculous stories, and a daily comedy show that proudly derails itself every few minutes, welcome home.Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your routine. Whether you're commuting, pretending to work, hiding from your responsibilities, or simply looking for a daily comedy show that embraces complete chaos, we're glad you're here.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week brings another installment of “Degrees Of Separation…,” where we dig into the side projects, supergroups, and solo releases connected to a particular artist. This time, we pay tribute to a rock n' roll workhorse and journeyman from the Great White North: a jack-of-all-trades musician who seems to be single-handedly keeping many of the legacy artists we love in fighting shape. He's not only a multi-instrumentalist and consummate rock star, but he also has some of the best pipes in the business. Of course, we're talking about TODD “DAMMIT” KERNS!!! New to InObscuria? It's all about excavating obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal from one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens.

Rizz returns from Lake of the Ozarks with stories that immediately raise questions about the local water quality, why "Doo Doo Cove" sounds exactly like what everyone thinks it does, and whether anyone should trust a body of water that inspires conversations about E. coli before breakfast. Between luxury boats, lake restaurants, cover bands playing everything from Def Leppard to Stone Temple Pilots, and a nighttime cruise that somehow turns into jokes about "Potty Cove," the crew proves once again that no vacation is safe from relentless roasting.Lern brings the emotional roller coaster. After performing with her band during one of the hottest weekends of the summer while sticking to Dry July, she shares stories from seeing Graham Nash live, discovering just how emotional Jason Isbell's music can be, and accidentally turning a simple drive home into a philosophical discussion about love, mortality, and asking Tim one of the most uncomfortable hypothetical questions imaginable. Leave it to this show to pivot from crying in the shower to making fun of old people at concerts in less than thirty seconds.King Scott breaks down his concert at Copper Fire. The review of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, debating where it ranks among Nolan's best films while also recounting one of the most frustrating movie theater experiences imaginable. Apparently, Nicole Kidman can remind everyone to silence their phones, but that doesn't stop a few audience members from treating a three-hour epic like their personal conference room.Along the way, the gang debates relationship guilt trips after solo vacations, laughs about passive-aggressive texts involving twenty loads of laundry and Beaches, swaps stories from weekend gigs around St. Louis, and somehow finds themselves discussing haunted taverns, giant lake houses, military-themed party boats, and why some people apparently spend millions on yachts that never leave freshwater.Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without conversations wandering completely off the rails. What starts as a harmless weekend recap turns into debates about movie etiquette, music that absolutely destroys your emotional stability, bizarre lake myths, and one of the funniest recurring bits of the day surrounding "Caca Cove." Add in the infamous Mountain Dew theft story, plenty of listener interaction, sarcastic commentary, and nonstop riffing, and you've got exactly the kind of chaos listeners expect every morning.Somehow the World Cup finally got a halftime show... and somehow we still found plenty to complain about.It's Moon Day, which means Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin get the glory while poor Michael Collins gets roasted for being the guy who drove everyone to the moon and wasn't allowed to get out of the car. We imagine the greatest prank NASA never pulled, discuss Bruce Lee, NeverEnding Story, James Gunn, Ozzy Day, and somehow turn historical events into completely unnecessary comedy.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where Jelly Roll and Bunny XO's divorce, Willie Nelson's latest memoir, Apple Music price hikes, Metallica preparing for The Sphere, Shane Gillis smashing comedy attendance records, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, Charlie Sheen family drama, celebrity careers hanging on by a thread, and plenty of entertainment gossip all get thrown into the blender.Along the way we debate whether stadium comedy is actually fun, argue about the best place to watch Nolan movies, wonder if The Rock needs a career reboot, celebrate Carlos Santana's birthday, and somehow end up discussing Michael Collins' intrusive thoughts while orbiting the moon.Would you hand over your dating life to artificial intelligence? Better question... would you trust Rafe Williams with your dating profile? That's the completely reasonable debate the gang accidentally has on today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, where one ridiculous idea somehow spirals into an entire discussion about modern dating, catfishing, AI matchmaking, relationship green flags, restaurant red flags, and why everyone's emotional baggage apparently comes with free shipping.It all starts with Rafe pitching what may be the worst—or greatest—experiment in show history: creating dating app profiles using Rizzuto's photos just to see what kind of chaos happens. Naturally, the room immediately realizes this could destroy friendships, marriages, reputations, and probably a few Terms of Service agreements. The conversation somehow gets even weirder when everyone starts debating whether younger versions of themselves would outperform their current selves on dating apps, complete with AI-generated aging photos and nostalgic stories from the early internet.Then things take a futuristic turn as the crew dives into a new AI-powered matchmaking service that's arranging dates for college students. Instead of endless swiping, artificial intelligence chooses your match, schedules your date, and may eventually give you conversation topics before you even meet. Convenient? Creepy? A little of both? The gang debates whether we're heading toward a future where AI agents date each other before humans ever have to.Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without immediately asking ChatGPT to describe everyone's ideal romantic partner. The results are surprisingly deep, unexpectedly hilarious, and occasionally a little too accurate for comfort. Nothing says "healthy discussion" like being emotionally profiled by a chatbot.Later, the conversation shifts into relationship green flags as the crew breaks down the little traits that instantly make someone more attractive—from confidence and curiosity to financial responsibility, power tools, good posture, and apparently picking things up with your toes.Finally, they tackle one of the biggest personality tests there is: going out to eat together. How someone treats restaurant staff, orders their meal, handles mistakes, tips, uses their phone, or reacts to cold mashed potatoes might reveal everything you need to know before committing to a second date.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Taylor Farms recalls iceberg lettuce sourced in Mexico after it was linked to cyclospora outbreakMan rescued after climbing into portable restroom toilet in Kansas CityMy eye had to be sewn shut after a parasite ate my cornea — the crucial mistake I madeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
