We met some fascinating new people during Human Bingo, including a local legend who made the news for mooning TV cameras during a high speed chase in LA. We also talked to a guy who wrestled Michael Jackson in a viral video, and poor Jodie who lost $50,000 to a bank scammer. Ally's Hot Sister returned to the airwave today for an update on her life and spoiler alert: it's going great! She has a new job she didn't even need to interview for, vacations to Portugal and Hawaii lined up, and she recently transitioned from a personal trainer to reformer pilates because she was getting 'too muscular.' She also had a proposition for Ally, and for her whole family, to apply for Italian citizenship. We checked in with Johnny who was live at the Klein.Ally.Show "We Suck" Blood Drive and per usual his contributions were a total sh*tshow. When asking him to count to ten for an audio test, he began singing his ABC's. But we met a lot of inspiring people donating their blood for free crap. Thank you to everyone who donated!! Plus Klein gets picked again in this weeks' Box of Shame, how many times a year you need a vacation in Clickbait, and a full Friday round of Johnny Doesn't Know!

Jarl Friis-Mikkelsen mener sagtens, han kan lande 10 store interview med verdensstjerner fra øverste hylde. Det er i hvert fald den opgave, han rejser til Los Angeles med. Øverst på listen står Jack Nicholson og Michael Jackson. Men det går ikke helt så let, som han har forventet. Derover har de aldrig hørt om Jarlen, og alle agenterne siger bare nej. Den ene måned tager den næste uden succes. Endelig får han overtalt Cher, og hun hjælper ham med adgang til andre navne. Snart sidder han med Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Arnold Schwarzenegger og Leonard Cohen. Især den sidste gør indtryk.

"Bad facts don't get better. Don't make them better." Criminal defense attorney Teny Geragos, a founding partner at Agnifilo Intrater LLP in New York City, grew up with those words from her father written on a chalkboard in her parents' pantry. That lesson has guided her defense of some of the most unpopular clients imaginable, from Martin Shkreli to Harvey Weinstein and Sean Combs. In this conversation with host Amber Nimocks, Teny explains how she turns intense media attention into a defense strategy and how she picks jurors who can see past the headlines. Tune in for insights on how to show jurors a client's humanity and why a fair trial can overcome public opinion.

215: Ist New Work wirklich gelebte Arbeitskultur, oder in vielen Unternehmen längst nur noch gutes Branding? In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber, warum New Work zunehmend zum Buzzword geworden ist und weshalb es mehr „Real Work" braucht: Was funktioniert in unserer Arbeitswelt tatsächlich und wo machen Unternehmen gerade wieder Rückschritte? Im Mittelpunkt stehen unter anderem: – New Work zwischen Anspruch und Realität – KI, Vertrauen und die Zukunft unserer Jobs – Mental Health und psychische Gesundheit in der Arbeitswelt – Führung, Hierarchien und überforderte Mitarbeitende – LinkedIn, authentischer Content und die Creator Economy Außerdem wird es persönlich: Kira erzählt von ihrer sechsmonatigen Weltreise durch 13 Länder und davon, warum Arbeiten unterwegs deutlich herausfordernder war, als es auf Social Media aussieht. Eine Folge über die Zukunft der Arbeit und darüber, warum wir bei New Work und KI den Menschen nicht aus dem Blick verlieren sollten. Über Kira Marie Cremer: Sie ist Autorin des Buchs „New Work – Wie arbeiten wir in Zukunft?", Dozentin für „Future of Work & Organizational Psychology" und Host des Podcasts „hotline hours". In ihrem wöchentlichen Newsletter „What the Work?!" beleuchtet sie Karriere-Tipps, Best Practices und Trends rund um New Work und sie setzt sich als Business Creator dafür ein, dass Unternehmen eine Arbeitswelt schaffen, in der Mitarbeitende nicht nur mitmachen – sondern mitgestalten.

Quincy Jones brought truth through music. We heard what America really felt like in the albums he produced, and in the films he scored. At the end of his life he made wild claims; that Michael Jackson was a thief (“he stole a lot of songs”), that the Beatles were frauds (“no-playing motherfu*ckers”), and that he knows “who killed Kennedy” in part because of his relationship with Frank Sinatra. In this episode we dive into these crimes—-musical and otherwise—to determine if arguably the greatest producer who ever lived, the man who claimed “all I’ve ever done is tell the truth," was, in fact, telling us the truth.

Anthony Marinelli is a legendary composer, performer, and synthesist. He worked with Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones on Thriller, James Brown, Kenny Loggins, Van Halen, and many more. He worked on the scores for over 90 original film score soundtracks including War Games, Stand by Me, and one of my favorites Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. He shares his knowledge on his YouTube channels and his in-depth courses Think Like a Synth and Bass DNA. I spoke with Anthony about how he breaks down sounds for synthesis and visualizes his sounds in his imagination rather than in technical terms. Anthony spoke about getting his start working as a synthesizer player and programmer as a teenage, and what it was like working with legends Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones.

¡Volvemos sin filtro, sin guion y directos a la yugular en Los Danko! En este episodio, el Pelos llega con una de cal y otra de arena: con ganas de prenderle fuego al panorama del podcasting y con un bombazo histórico que os va a dejar boquiabiertos. Puntos clave del episodio: La «Ley Pelos» contra los Podcast Days: Rajada monumental contra el certamen profesional. Desgranamos la presunta estafa de pagar 50 pavos por una nominación fantasma sin recibo ni vergüenza, y repasamos el compadreo, los premios a dedo para las grandes corporaciones y el reparto de la pasta publicitaria. Boda, desastre y venganza: La noticia viral de la boda gallega donde la novia exige 40.000 € y acaba desahogándose con el camarero en el baño. Sí, señores: alta, contrato, finiquito y follada. El Confesionario Dankista (Especial Vuestras Bodas): En el episodio anterior («Boda, cloro y cagarro»), Sam Danko se desnudó emocionalmente contando las miserias y realidades de su propia boda. La respuesta de la comunidad ha sido arrolladora: habéis reventado el correo y el Telegram confesando vuestros propios traumas nupciales. Aquí sacamos a la luz las mejores joyas: Iván: Una boda masónica con su suegro mexicano donde ya se huelen los sacrificios humanos a la legua. La novia secuestrada: Cuando la suegra impone un bodorrio multitudinario, los novios no disfrutan ni del menú y reina el postureo. Las anécdotas del Pelos: El bochorno de verse obligado a bailar como Michael Jackson ante 100 desconocidos y el camarero falso que casi le revienta un traje nuevo a base de cava y huevos. La boda Fan y la espantada: Un invitado que regala 10 sesiones de capoeira en lugar de pasta y Sam huyendo a la francesa en pleno baile. Nicolás contra el mundo: Canceló la despedida, mandó a paseo a la cuñada «wedding planner» y se casó en secreto mientras la familia aún espera que recapacite. Drama en Xàtiva: Alergia a los cacahuetes, novio durmiendo en el suelo del pasillo del hotel con media pizza fría y divorcio exprés al año, tal trauma la convierte en usuaria habitual de ONLYFANS. BOMBAZO FINAL: Nace DANKOMANÍA 20: Cumplimos 20 años de historia ininterrumpida. Anunciamos el gran evento para 2028 en Madrid con todo por hacer: el directo definitivo de humor para celebrar dos décadas de resistencia subterránea junto a los mecenas y oyentes que hacéis posible todo esto. Ayúdanos a construir el evento desde hoy en info@losdanko.com. ¿Tú también sufriste un secuestro familiar el día de tu boda o sobreviviste a base de pizza fría? ¿El melón que acabamos de abrir de despedidas de soltero necesita de tus anécdotas para próximos episodios épicos?

Hvad i al verden gør vi, når idolet falder ned fra piedestalen, men musikken stadig sidder i kroppen?I dette liveafsnit fra Empire Bio den 15. september 2026, optaget som en del af Golden Days' MONSTRE-program, taler jeg med Lucia Odoom og Katrine Hornstrup Yde om Michael Jackson. Vi vender idoldyrkelsen, moral, anklager og alt det rod, der opstår, når et menneske både kan være genialt, elsket, kontroversielt og umuligt at placere i én enkelt kasse.Vi taler om bevægelsen fra gud til monster, om publikums ansvar, og om man faktisk godt må danse til musikken og samtidig tænke sig om.Kæmpe tak til Lucia og Katrine for at gå med ind i alle nuancerne, og til det vidunderlige publikum i Empire Bio for spørgsmål, grin, nysgerrighed, kærlighed og for at gøre samtalen levende.Rigtig god lyttelyst. Del afsnittet med nogle du holder af.

¿Alguna vez intentaste parecerte a alguien copiando lo que hace por fuera? En este mensaje, el pastor Danilo Montero arranca contando su asombro al ver en el cine la película sobre Michael Jackson: la capacidad del actor para imitar hasta el más mínimo detalle, los gestos, las manos, la forma de cantar y bailar.De ahí salta a una confesión propia. De jovencito aprendió a imitar la vida cristiana por fuera: la Biblia grande bajo el brazo, la manera de vestir, la jerga de "gloria a Dios" y "varón de Dios". Pero imitar a Cristo no es copiar conductas.Pablo lo llama un misterio: el misterio de la piedad. "Dios fue manifestado en carne" (1 Timoteo 3:16). Piedad es una vida centrada en Dios que se refleja en devoción y obediencia. Como un bombillo, que tiene toda la estructura para dar luz pero necesita la corriente.La pregunta no es cuáles son las obras, sino quién las hace en ti. Jesús dijo: sin mí nada pueden hacer. El llamado es rendirte.
We made it to Volume 5.Somehow.And for the final installment of The Ultimate Conspiracy Theory Ranking (at least for now) we're closing this series with celebrity deaths, mind control, secret societies, hidden power structures, frozen legends, and one of the strangest Michael Jackson theories we've ever talked about.Same rules.Same scale.One last trip down the rabbit trail.1 — Not in a million years.5 — Absolutely. I'd bet my life on it.This time, we start with one of the most persistent theories in music history:Did Courtney Love have something to do with Kurt Cobain's death?And because this is That Would Be Rad, that conversation somehow sends us sideways into MKULTRA, government mind-control experiments, pop culture, and even the Mickey Mouse Club of the 1990s.From there, things only get bigger.Do a small group of elites actually control more of the world than we realize?Is the Illuminati a real organization—or has the legend become something entirely different from whatever may have existed in the first place?Was Walt Disney really cryogenically frozen?And then there's Michael Jackson.Because according to one theory…he never actually died.Could the King of Pop still be alive, hiding in plain sight, living under another identity—or is this exactly the kind of theory that proves we've finally gone too far?As always, we're not here to tell you what to believe.We're here to hear the theory.Follow the strange details.Argue about what makes sense.Laugh at what absolutely does not.Accidentally wander into three completely different conspiracy theories along the way…And eventually put a number on it.Some of these have been circulating for decades.Some involve very real historical programs that have grown into much larger conspiracy lore.And some are so bizarre that the only reasonable response is:Okay… where did THAT come from?But this episode also marks the end of something.After five volumes, dozens of conspiracy theories, countless detours, and more questionable rankings than we can remember…The Ultimate Conspiracy Theory Ranking is going back into the vault.Because October is here.And longtime listeners know what that means.The lights are getting lower.The stories are getting darker.And our annual That Would Be Rad Spooktacular is almost here.But before we step into spooky season, there's one last list to finish.One last argument to have.And one last question to ask:Okay… but what if?The Ultimate Conspiracy Theory Ranking | Volume 5Be Rad.RAD WAYS YOU CAN SUPPORT OUR SHOW:JOIN OUR PATREON: Exclusive episodes, bonus content, and behind-the-scenes weirdness: patreon.com/thatwouldberadCHECK OUT OUR MERCH: Grab official That Would Be Rad gear: thatwouldberad.myspreadshop.comSHOW INFO:
On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with drummer and educator Nate Morton for a wide-ranging conversation about musicianship, preparation, versatility, listening, and the skills that build a career long after you leave the practice room.Nate is best known to many listeners as the drummer for NBC's The Voice, a gig that requires him to move effortlessly between rock, pop, country, R&B, blues, and just about anything else that lands on the music stand. We talk about how a childhood filled with everything from KISS and Michael Jackson to George Clinton, the Beatles, the O'Jays, the Temptations, Barry White, and Booker T. & the M.G.'s helped build that musical vocabulary. Nate explains why his goal was never to become the “rock guy” or the “jazz guy.” He wanted to become the always-employed guy.But much of our conversation is about what happens beyond the notes. Nate and I dig into preparation, organization, punctuality, adaptability, and musicians' responsibility to the people around them. He shares lessons from his time at Berklee College of Music, including the realization that learning what not to play can be just as important as developing the ability to play. A story about watching Abraham Laboriel Jr. take a four-bar solo becomes a lesson in confidence, restraint, and musical maturity.We also delve deeply into the relationship among drums, bass, singers, and the rest of the band. Nate explains how he adjusts his playing to different vocalists, why listening matters more than showing off, and how his relationship with bassist Sasha Krivtsov on The Voice allows the rhythm section to constantly react and adapt to one another. His philosophy is simple: the band only sounds good when everyone sounds good.Along the way, we talk about teaching, technology, learning music before everything was a click away, the value of relationships, and why small interactions can have an enormous impact on another musician. This one became much more than a conversation about drumming. It's about professionalism, curiosity, generosity, and what it actually takes to build a life in music.Key TakeawaysPreparation extends far beyond practicing your instrument. Being on time, organized, dependable, adaptable, and respectful of other people's time can be as important to a career as technical ability.Versatility creates opportunity. Nate intentionally developed enough vocabulary across multiple styles to walk into different musical situations comfortably. His goal was to become the “always-employed guy.”Listening is one of the most important skills on the bandstand. Whether working with a singer, bassist, guitarist, or an entire ensemble, Nate constantly adjusts his playing according to what everyone else is doing.Great musicians know when not to play. Nate's story about Abraham Laboriel Jr. at Berklee illustrates how confidence and restraint can communicate more than filling every available space.Adaptability matters more than perfect circumstances. From forgotten floor tom legs to unfamiliar backline setups, Nate learned that sometimes you simply have to “sit down and make music.”Music school can give you tools, but the real world teaches you where to use them. Berklee gave Nate technical vocabulary and a safe environment to make mistakes, while professional gigs taught him context, restraint, and musical judgment.Relationships matter. Nate sees genuine human interaction as one of the central principles of both his career and his life, whether he is working with another musician, teaching a student, or answering a question from someone who reaches out online.Music from the EpisodeI Think I Just Said That - Fraud ProphetsScrubs - Fraud ProphetsHomer's Journey - Fraud ProphetsMoths and Mosquitoes - Fraud ProphetsAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a podcast about the people who make music and the experiences that shape them.

Send in your music story!Eleven minutes of pure technical chaos somehow turns into one of the most honest conversations we have had in a while. Once the mics finally cooperate, we talk about the death of Dolly Parton, what her legacy means, and why people feel protective of her in a way that is rare for any celebrity. We give her flowers for the philanthropy, the literacy work, and the generosity, while also being real about how fame can get amplified until it feels like a brand you cannot escape.Then the conversation takes a sharper turn: what does it say about us when public attention and official gestures go big for a celebrity, but barely register for others who die in war or tragedy? We are not blaming Dolly, we are interrogating the system that decides what gets a statement, what gets a headline, and what gets forgotten. If you have ever felt uncomfortable with the way grief becomes content, you will know exactly what we are getting at.From there we bounce back into music podcast mode with headlines like Tom Hardy dropping a bizarre album, plus a deep dive on AI-generated music and the new chart restrictions coming out of Australia. Should AI songs be banned from the charts, labeled, or placed in their own category? We argue it out, including the messy ethics of training data, credit, and what “human-made” even means now. We wrap with bracket updates, YouTube poll results, and a surprisingly heated Michael Jackson versus Red Hot Chili Peppers debate that turns into a love letter to how music videos shape memory.Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves music debates, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Visit: Clogsfearus.com for more info! https://www.popcultureretrospective.com/https://www.instagram.com/popcultureretrospective/Support the showPlease give us a quick rate and review.

When the Black, 30-year-old Michael Jackson impersonator stepped onto the F train in Manhattan on May 1, 2023, he was ranting angrily about being hungry and thirsty, willing to kill, die, or go to jail for life. His name was Jordan Neely. He was clearly in distress. Daniel Penny, a white, 24-year-old former Marine put him in a chokehold and pulled him to the ground. Neely struggled for almost 6 minutes before dying. Julian reviews Anand Girirdhardas' new book that places this event at its center. Man In The Mirror: Hope, Struggle, and Belonging in an American City is Anand's fifth book. He appeared on Conspirituality in January 2022 to talk about The Persuaders. In his new book, he takes readers into a deep and rich background of the broken New York City system of social services for unhoused and mentally ill people. He tells the story of how these two very different lives collided, and the consequences that ensued.

AJ handled today's "On the Board" which focused on things that people over the age of 50 should know how to do. (0:00)We never know what to expect when we pick up the phone live on the air.. Today we met a party named Sally, who'd been up since 3:30 a.m., enjoyed a little wake-and-bake, and had one mission: explain why people, especially men, need to learn how to clean themselves properly. What followed was a completely unexpected, wildly entertaining call. (20:53)In Dumbass News, a road rage story involving a jar of vegan mayo sent Chaz and AJ down memory lane, sharing their own road rage encounters. (30:00)Actor Dolph Lundgren joined Chaz and AJ to discuss his new memoir, Fights Worth Fighting: Finding Strength in Struggle, and the incredible journey that's taken him from a chemical engineering student in Sweden to one of Hollywood's most iconic action stars. Dolph shared stories about coming to America, meeting Grace Jones, catching Michael Jackson at the Apollo during a legendary era in music, and landing the career-defining role of Ivan Drago in Rocky IV. He also opened up about his battle with cancer, the challenges he's faced along the way, and the mindset that's helped him keep fighting through it all. (37:35)Commander Keith stopped by the studio wearing a shirt so distracting it immediately derailed the conversation. Once everyone recovered from the shirt, Keith unveiled his annual list of the Top 5 Things He Can't Stand About Autumn, including vaping teens at festivals, pumpkin spice everything, and pretty much the entire concept of spooky season. Boo Humbug! (46:11)
How much better is that expensive audiophile reissue—really? On this episode of Chasing Better Sound, David and Louie welcome Mitch from Mitch & Max's Vinyl Corner for a deep dive into one of the biggest debates in record collecting and high-end audio: original vinyl pressings vs. modern audiophile reissues. The conversation starts with the importance of the source and quickly moves into the increasingly expensive world of premium vinyl. Are $100, $150—or even several-hundred-dollar—pressings actually delivering better sound, or are collectors sometimes paying more for marginal improvements, fancy packaging, and audiophile hype? The guys compare originals and reissues from albums and artists including Steely Dan, Michael Jackson, Heart, Chet Baker, Pink Floyd, Pearl Jam and more, while discussing mastering choices, aging master tapes, AAA releases, digital processing, dynamics, detail, warmth, and why the “best sounding pressing” can depend as much on your system and preferences as the record itself. David also breaks down his process for conducting vinyl “bake-offs,” including level-matched comparisons and evaluating bass, mids, highs, imaging, dynamics, vocals, vinyl quality—and ultimately sound quality per dollar. Then the discussion turns toward what audiophile labels should be releasing. Instead of another trip through the same classic-rock catalog, is it time for more premium reissues of the music collectors who grew up in the '80s, '90s and early 2000s actually want? Jeff Buckley's Grace, '80s and '90s hip-hop, alternative rock, metal and other underserved titles all enter the conversation. At the heart of the episode is a simple question every serious vinyl collector eventually faces: Are we chasing better sound—or just chasing the next pressing? Join David, Louie and special guest Mitch for an hour of audiophile vinyl talk, pressing comparisons, mastering rabbit holes, expensive records, overlooked bargains and plenty of opinions about where the audiophile reissue market should go next. Chasing Better Sound is part of the Vinyl Community Podcasts Network—podcasts for, by, and featuring members of the Vinyl Community. Listen up, now!
Song-ranking articles can be annoying clickbait, but those written by longtime journalist Bill Wyman are endlessly provocative, entertaining and informative, with individual entries becoming deep-diving, mind-opening essays. For Vulture, Wyman ranked every song by the Beatles, Michael Jackson, Led Zeppelin, the Clash and Pink Floyd, as well as every Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee. Now Wyman has added Nirvana and the Eagles songs to the mix and compiled it all in Bill Wyman's Rock & Roll Lists. Here we bat around his ridiculous choice for the Beatles' worst song; dissect how publishing royalties muddied the Pink Floyd waters; discuss why he ranked songs by the Eagles rather than, say, R.E.M., U2 or Prince; and weigh the Hall of Fame worthiness of Pat Benatar and Stevie Nicks vs. Aimee Mann and PJ Harvey. Wyman also reflects on Poptimism and Chicago's early ‘90s glory, feud-fueled days featuring Steve Albini, Urge Overkill and Liz Phair.

Kendrick Sampson (founder of the racial justice nonprofit BLD PWR, actor best known as Nathan in Insecure and Quincy Jones in Michael Jackson's biopic) sits down with Shan to talk about loving widely. Kendrick grew up in a house where nobody said "I love you" after his parents divorced, so love turned into something you did instead of something you said. Love is choosing someone else's needs over your own wants. It's why he has no plan for a romantic relationship, why he separates sex, pleasure, and love into three completely different things, and why he'll tell you flat out that romantic love is actually the smallest, most narrow kind there is. His 25 nieces and nephews come first. If he ever has kids, he wants to raise them with a homegirl, no romance required, because the village already exists. This is a conversation about what happens when you stop assuming a partner is the endpoint, and start asking who you're actually accountable to. —------- Showing some love to the sponsor of this episode Hollyood Ending.

Esta madrugada hemos tenido un programa lleno de ritmo... aunque algunos de vosotros os hayáis declarado arrítmicos en vuestras notas de audio, al menos en lo que al baile se refiere. Esa fue una de las premisas que le vino a la mente al periodista Enrique Alpañés cuando, hace un año, publicó en "El País" el artículo "Gente que camina para no bailar". Le hemos pedido que nos acompañe esta noche junto a la neurocientífica y bailaora Ana Belén López, que nos ha explicado todos los beneficios que tiene el baile. También hemos tenido tertulia de emisoras de la SER, y Diego Merayo, desde Radio Valladolid, y Alejandro Martín, desde SER Castilla-La Mancha, nos han contado, entre otras cosas, cómo son las fiestas de pueblo en sus respectivas provincias. Y como cada martes, Alejandro Pelayo se sienta al piano de la SER para explicarnos qué es exactamente el ritmo. Y lo ha hecho a través de Aitana, Survivor, Michael Jackson, Paco de Lucía y Camarón.
This week I'm joined by Martin 2 Smoove — Ministry of Sound Milkshake resident, tour DJ for Eve and for Romesh Ranganathan, and a man who held down a Pacha residency alongside Trevor Nelson. Martin was born in Kerala, raised in Basildon, and spent his teens watching Trevor on MTV Base thinking that's the job I want. A night out at 17 watching the Dream Team turn a room inside out sealed it. What follows is one of the most honest accounts of the slow route I've had on the show: an economics degree taken to keep his parents happy, summers as a runner at Wise Buddah fetching drinks for 50 Cent, years of breaking into halls of residence with armfuls of flyers, and a long stretch between 2010 and 2012 where nothing moved at all while everyone he graduated with got on with their careers.Then a call from a contact at Atlantic about an American artist needing a tour DJ turned out to be Eve, and thirteen years later he's still there. We get into the craft of it too — the Leicester Square residency where the owner would ask him to clear the dance floor on purpose, six years playing 80s and 90s pop at Jazz Cafe that taught him more about music than anything else he's done, why Shazam charts are a month ahead of the actual charts, and why being easy to travel with matters as much as what you can do on the turntables. Martin's the kind of guest who makes you want to take the unglamorous gig. Really enjoyed this one.What we get into:Growing up in Basildon with no music in the house, and finding Michael Jackson, MTV Base and Trevor NelsonSeeing the Dream Team at 17 and deciding on the spot that making a room happy was the jobStudying economics at Keele to shut his parents up, and hating every minute of the academic sideWhy he'll still take the right gig for free, and how the long-term view has paid off repeatedlyBeing a runner at Wise Buddah, getting studio drops from Mariah Carey and Xzibit, and learning artist etiquette the hard wayWarming up for Trevor Nelson at universities, and twenty years of Milkshake at Ministry of SoundThe 2010–2012 stretch where nothing happened, and the digging-for-diamonds meme he wishes he'd seen thenTwo summers at Pacha, and bringing R&B and hip hop to an island that wasn't playing itLeicester Square and Jazz Cafe: learning to clear a dance floor on purpose, and what Karma Chameleon does to a roomThe U2 end-of-tour party where nobody danced for four hours until one request changed everythingGetting the Eve call, messing up the second gig, and the look of death on stageGumball 3000, working Mondays unpaid to learn the clothing business, and a BAPE collaboration on the wayVJing Romesh Ranganathan's arena tour, and how to add value rather than just play a setWhy Shazam charts beat the official charts by a monthRunning a DJ agency with Andy Purnell and Luke, and why being easy to travel with is a professional skill
Matthew West looks back on the career advice that told him to be more of a “rock star,” a mold he knew he didn't want to fit. He recounts touring with Willie Robertson, quickly realizing who the real celebrity was, and finding humor in some deeply humbling moments along the way. Matthew opens up to Jase, Al, and Zach about his brother's long battle with addiction, the prayers that seem to go unanswered, and why his song and devotional book Don't Stop Praying grew out of his own need for a deeper prayer life. The guys dig into surrender, grace, and Matthew's new Jesus Is King album, reflecting on what it means to draw near to God instead of trying to control everything yourself.

The Rizzuto Show is rolling out a brand-new game called Dead or Alive, because apparently determining whether celebrities are still among us is now a legitimate path to winning Metallica tickets. Welcome to the funny podcast where mortality, prizes and our questionable knowledge of famous people finally collide.Before anybody gets quizzed on who is currently breathing, we've got important meat business to handle. Jimmy Fallon's trivia question involves a record-breaking 430-foot meat snack, which turns out to be a Slim Jim. Even better, Rizz gets a perfectly timed gift from Times Square: a “Mommy's Little Meatball” shirt. Sometimes the universe hands you comedy. Other times it hands you processed meat and an aggressively Italian T-shirt.Then MrBeast enters the conversation after spending millions to build a self-sustaining village in Ghana with homes for teachers, a medical clinic, clean water infrastructure, solar power and a school for hundreds of kids. Naturally, somebody on the internet still found a reason to complain. The crew digs into the criticism, MrBeast's response and the baffling human ability to look at somebody doing something objectively helpful and immediately type, “Yeah, but what about…”From there, we discover that estate sales might actually be worth getting out of bed for. A bargain hunter in Michigan bought a forgotten seashell painting for $30, only to discover it was a long-lost Gertrude Abercrombie work potentially worth $250,000. Suddenly rummaging through dead strangers' belongings sounds less depressing and more like a retirement strategy.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where this funny podcast dives into Slipknot teasing something mysterious, the possibility of Lzzy Hale fronting a Velvet Revolver reunion, Ozzfest returning, and Taylor Swift receiving another award that sounds suspiciously like somebody needed to invent an award specifically for Taylor Swift.We also get the incredible story of Michael Jackson accidentally giving an acceptance speech for an award that didn't actually exist, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives melting everyone's remaining brain cells, Channing Tatum denying he has a secret Instagram burner account roasting celebrities, and Arnold Schwarzenegger announcing another self-help book — which naturally means everybody has to attempt an Arnold impression.Plus, Brad Pitt's Cliff Booth is returning, the crew debates Beatles songs versus their famous covers, Joe Cocker gets some much-deserved love, and Robin Williams' comedy legacy leads to a discussion about his reputation for accidentally absorbing other comedians' material.Finally, the moment we've been waiting for: Dead or Alive. Three listeners will face off against members of the show, trying to determine whether ten celebrities of varying fame are still alive. Beat the crew and you get your choice of some seriously ridiculous prizes.It's meat snacks, mystery paintings, rock news, celebrity fails and a game that could expose just how little we actually know about famous people — exactly the kind of educational excellence you expect from a funny podcast like 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.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Does your team feel out of whack? Tiff and Pam pull back the curtain on maintaining practice camaraderie by sharing where to find those daily wins. They discuss not only setting goals, but the most effective way to do so; how to best utilize morning huddles; why ongoing communication is critical; and more. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Tiffanie (00:01) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. We are so excited to be here with you today. We love taking over the podcast, giving Kiera a little break, and as consultants coming on. So you have both myself, Tiffanie and Pam here with you today. Pam, how are you doing this morning? DAT Pamela (00:20) I am doing fantastic. How are you doing, Tiffanie (00:22) Good. DAT Pamela (00:22) Tiffanie? Tiffanie (00:23) I'm doing good as well. At the time of recording this podcast, it is morning time for us, about 10 a.m. And it's just after a long weekend. It's nice and hot outside. It's 2026, so I don't even know what year you're listening to this in. but we are just excited to be here. We love starting our weeks out with you guys, with podcasting, with delivering awesome information, awesome content. And Pam, I think today's Topic is something that is really beneficial for everyone. And listeners, we want to make sure that we're always delivering the best quality, that we're delivering the best ideas, and that we're taking the things that we've learned not only in our own extracurricular activities and our own time in dental practices and education, etc., but also what we're seeing in practices that has been Tried and true, that's been tested, and that's worked for practices. And something that comes to light for us often is camaraderie, culture, making sure that a team is really, really working together as a team and not just kind of like department by department or me here for myself, that kind of thought process. So today Pam and I are gonna be reviewing some pieces that we feel like we've really nailed in within consulting and within, you practices of our own that really helped to establish that. And Pam, before we get started too much, what are you seeing in your consulting that you feel like kind of comes in alignment with this? What what are what are doctors saying? Why does this idea of really bringing together that camaraderie and that culture piece, why does this seem to be relevant for us today? DAT Pamela (02:12) Yeah, I mean that culture piece is huge, right? It's it's everything in a ball and how do we describe that? It's really difficult to describe, but you know it when you experience good culture or a poor culture in especially in a dental office. And I think that alignment, everyone knowing what they're working for is and working towards is super, super important. Tiffanie (02:37) Yeah. What do you feel like when you see an office that's not in alignment that maybe isn't having those shared goals or shared wins, things like that? What kind of things are you seeing happen because of that? Like what are the negative impacts of team members not being ali in alignment? DAT Pamela (02:54) Yeah, that's a a really good question, right? It's I think what I think everyone in the practice needs to know what that vision is, right? And when it is when the vision does not turn into daily habits, then that's where alignment or misalignment happens, really, right? destroying momentum is what I see. Destroying that alignment is constantly changing, right? If you're the leader and you're constantly moving the goal, you're constantly saying, well, t we're gonna do this today and then tomorrow we're gonna do this. And you're just bouncing around. That's really difficult. So it doesn't matter what you decide it is, just stick to it and talk about it every day. So the pro that's a big issue that I see. Like a lot of doctors and office managers just feel like they, okay, here's what we're here's our daily things that we're working on to get to the vision that we've created. But they don't talk about it every day. And it it Tiffanie (03:55) Yeah. DAT Pamela (03:55) it's it's just something that you have to do, whether that is a one, two, three, here's our focus, three focuses for the month, one focus for the month. It doesn't matter, but you have to that's that's a big issue in a lot of practices. inconsistency, right? Then that would kind of be in the same vein as that. When you know your doctor says, okay, I'm gonna be at Huddle every morning. And then it happens for three days and then not for two, and then it happens for three more. So that it's it just says it's not important, right? Tiffanie (04:29) Mm-hmm. DAT Pamela (04:30) another another thing I see is I I again it kind of goes back to too many initiatives create confusion. So simple f simplifying it and giving one or two things that we're doing, accomplishing this day, week, month, whatever that is. Tiffanie (04:51) Yeah, no those. DAT Pamela (04:52) Yeah, I I yeah, and I you know, I don't think teams really fail from a lack of information. Tiffanie (04:59) Mm-hmm. DAT Pamela (05:00) perhaps they feel f they fail when there's a lack of focus. Tiffanie (05:05) Mm-hmm. Yeah. And today we're talking about daily wins. Like how what how do daily wins help the progress of the practice? And how do daily wins help keep us in alignment? And some of the pieces that I think I see that come up that show us that this isn't happening, that shows us we're out of alignment and shows us that maybe some of those pieces that you were speaking to, Pam, are happening as when a doctor comes and they're not profitable. they're they're not able to find the profit or they're not able to fill the schedule or they feel like their schedule is full, but it's hectic, they're not reaching goals, or maybe they don't have goals, or some of the biggest pieces, or I have a lot of clients that will come and say, gosh, we need more new patients, but then we look at the schedule and I'm like, Well, where are you gonna put new more new patients? So it might not be an acquisition issue, it might be a scheduling issue, but though those pieces really kind of point us in the direction. of a misalignment and that misalignment is typically going to like to your point, Pam, be really related to the goal setting and the clarity around the goals. Like you said, they they don't always need more direction, like more words, but they sometimes lack that clarity that creates that confusion. And really, maybe not confusion so much as to like our monthly goal is 150. Like we need to hit 150,000. But maybe confusion on what is a priority. So when we don't have that clarity, when we're not all rowing in the same direction, we're not talking about it frequently, we start to make decisions that are based on what's easiest, what's gonna clear up the busywork in front of me right now that may not be moving the needle forward when there's maybe an option for something that could move the needle forward. And I just put that on the back burner. And what I mean by that is maybe Maybe I'm cleaning up a protocol because it's a little messy and a little confusing, but there's a patient who's just called to schedule treatment and I said, you know what, I'll call them back. I need to finish this first. But my priorities are a little out of sync there and out of alignment with what the actual goals are. And I think, Pam, when clients come in and they say the schedule's, you know, a schedule's one of the top things that clients come in and and talk to us about or that we get random emails from our listeners at Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. You guys send emails all the time, please continue. We love those. But we get those emails that are like, gosh, my schedule's full. I'm not hitting goal. My schedule's full. It's chaotic and it's crazy. My team doesn't know how to deal with the chaos, right? I don't, my team doesn't know how to mitigate the chaos. and a lot of those pieces, to your point, Pam, can be discussed daily multiple times. So When you're helping a team find that alignment, Pam, where's one of the first spaces that you help guide them to speak of those daily wins? DAT Pamela (08:05) Yeah, I I mean it's it's really like when you're setting your goals, setting those KPIs and and setting your goals, it's it's not only saying we are gonna do 150,000, this is our monthly goal, but it's how do I get there? Me as one person in the practice, right? So you know, that that momentum telling each individual, like, okay, your job is this today. So For example, if you were to set your vision as being like, okay, we want healthy patients, a happy team, and exceptional dentistry, right? That's not giving me a lot to go forward. So it's making sure within those goals, let's say it's 150,000, that you do actually say, and this is your job today. We are going, you're going to be looking for all the opportunities that we have. If something comes up, make sure you let everyone be aware. So It's keeping that communication, I think is a big part of it. And really and and it is like to your point, Tiff, it is something you can talk about every day. Like are we staying on task? Are we staying on priority? And you know, we can do the tasks, yes, but the priority is production today, right? So or Tiffanie (09:23) Yeah. Yeah. DAT Pamela (09:24) the priority is you know Patient experience. What whatever that is that you're doing, but you have to describe exactly what each team member needs to do. Tiffanie (09:34) Yeah. And that can come down too to like their job descriptions being super clear, right? DAT Pamela (09:38) Mm-hmm. Tiffanie (09:38) So if I'm a scheduling coordinator, I know my goal of my position is that the schedule is full to goal, right? So taking that monthly goal and then breaking it apart into weekly and daily goals and then putting it into perspective per position. So if I'm a scheduling coordinator, I know the hygiene schedule needs to be scheduled to X amount of dollars and I know the doctor's schedule. For a doctor, each doctor is probably a little bit different, needs to be scheduled to X amount of dollars. And so then celebrating those wins daily is hey, guess what? We were scheduled to goal yesterday. Or hey, we were a little bit under goal yesterday, but for the month, we're ahead. Or we're a little bit under goal, and I know we've got three holes in the schedule today. Let's fill those and let's assign out how that's going to work. And Pam, I think that's what you mean too, with the morning meeting, right? Is looking at those wins and then saying, hey. these things need to be done today. Let's assign them out and make sure that someone's responsible. And something as you're speaking, Pam, I'm thinking, I've seen this really, really off like off day, like it's frequent, frequent thing where teams come together for the morning huddle and we've got our back office that talks through you know, health histories, unscheduled treatment, needs for the back office for the patients. We've got our front office that talks about holes in the schedule. talks about the financials, are we on track or off track? And then we split, right? So the so we say this is all the unscheduled treatment. We say, cool, this is all the holes, or hey our patients, our patient at 10 a.m. needs this thing. And we're like, okay, cool. And then we split and nothing applicable happens with the data that we just spoke about. We just kind of say, okay, great, we had our morning huddle, we're all aware, and it does it's just gonna happen. Right. So we kind of lean on the like universal it just will happen and fall into place. and oftentimes they're not assigning those things out. So I think Pam to your point is saying, hey, this patient at 10 AM he needs a call to make sure that they took their pre-med or they need to remember to bring in their night guard or their retainer because we're we're delivering a crown today and we need to make sure it fits. So Pam, will you call do you have time this morning to call that patient and make sure that they have that reminder? So we're really like divvying out and assigning those things so that we can win and we're all working as a team because I know a lot of times PM the front office thinks, well, it's a patient coming in on the schedule today. So that dental assistant needs to call that patient. The dental assistant is like, we don't get on the phone. The front office does the phone call. So me saying it means automatically that the front office is going to take care of it. But that mismatch communication in the middle is where we get a skew from alignment. DAT Pamela (12:18) Yeah, and and to exactly to that point is, you know, even if there are holes in schedule in the schedule, sometimes people need to know what is important to do. So, hey Tiffanie (12:29) Mm-hmm. DAT Pamela (12:29) guys, we have a couple of openings coming up this week and dental assistants, can I get you to make some phone calls today? Tiffanie (12:38) Yeah. DAT Pamela (12:39) and just really directing what is important. Like, yes, they need to, you know, stock the rooms and and and this and that. but what is important today because our ultimate goal is to schedule 150 this month and we're down or we're up or wherever we are, and let's keep focused on what is going to move us forward. Tiffanie (13:00) Yeah. Yeah. Keeping our goals, our our eyes on those goals and then making sure we're taking the steps that are going to get us there and communicating those things. So it doesn't always have to be like a set, this is how we get there every day, like this these are the things you do. We're gonna have adjustments and changes and making sure that we're communicating those. So I think Pam to your point there, like that alignment and keeping that momentum every day. Celebrating those wins is that right there. Like we're assigning things out, we're discussing them, we're making sure we're all in alignment, and then we're celebrating, hey, guess what? Because of the work that we put in, because we assigned them out, because we knew what we were doing, and everybody had a daily goal, we were able to reach this. And so that continues that momentum, and they see the fruits of their labor are creating change. And Pam, with that, I know I've seen this a ton, and and you probably have too. Teams get like stale and stagnant when they don't have that, right? When they're not talking about alignment and not talking about those things, but they're also not seeing, that thing I did created that change or pushed that needle forward. Because when we do get in that, like just checklist, right? Like I'm just checking my boxes and I did my stuff today and I'm out of here. We don't have that sense of ownership and that win when we can see. Hey, this isn't actually moving the needle. Like these things that I'm doing, they're not it's not moving it. I'm gonna adjust it and do this. And then we see that win. Then we can really gain the personal momentum and that creativity in the space. Do you notice that as well, Pam? DAT Pamela (14:42) Yeah, it's it's moving or I guess focusing your mind on those things that are a lot of busy work and yes, those things are super important. But also it's like keeping like you're saying, just really focused on what is it, what is our ultimate goal this month? Maybe our ultimate goal is to hit that one fifty. So that means that even by the hour, sometimes we're saying, Hey, we got a cancellation. Does anybody Can we think of a patient that we can put in there? I mean, just like anything, keeping your back, so your back office doesn't have to come up and go, hey, what happened? shoot, our goal, you Tiffanie (15:20) Yeah. DAT Pamela (15:20) know. just keeping that communication. So, you know, if if typically let's just say it's an office manager or front office lead person, keep that communication going between front and back. Get up, manage on your feet, look around, see what's happening in the office, and then just visualize what is that ultimate goal that we need to accomplish today, this week, next, this month, whatever that is. And you know, also you mentioned something recognizing those wins is super, super important. And it may be you recognize somebody for something that they did almost right, you know, just Tiffanie (16:06) Yeah. DAT Pamela (16:06) not wrong. So it's get used to finding things right that people are doing and that behavior will get repeated. And I know that's a hard thing to hear because it's a hard thing to do. for for some people, some people it comes pretty natural, but you know we're so busy as leaders and dentists that it's difficult to do that. You're in your you're in your space. but even as an office manager, a lead, hey guys, that was awesome. We did so good. Those kind of things get repeated when you mention them. Tiffanie (16:39) Yeah. I agree. It makes me think of my home life, right? And I I say this a lot. And DAT Pamela (16:45) Mm. Totally. Tiffanie (16:47) what we try to do is we try to recreate this entire wheel in the workplace because we're at we're at work. It's gotta be totally different. But like people are people and how we operate, how we think, how we behave, right, is pretty similar no matter where you're at. You're still the same person. And so DAT Pamela (17:05) Right. Tiffanie (17:05) I try to think of like what works for a family, what works for my family and for my family every night at dinner and make the kids tell me what their favorite part of the day was. Because their first, you know, the first words are, school sucks. I hate school. Why do I just sit there all day? Why do we have homework? This sucks. Why are we doing this? And I'm like, cool, DAT Pamela (17:21) No. Tiffanie (17:21) what was awesome today? Like what about today was amazing. And sometimes it's at lunch, right? I got pizza at lunch. I'm like, Well, that's cool. You wouldn't have pizza if you were home, you know? But like Taking those wins every day and seeing looking teaching someone to see and look for the positive because it's so easy. There's so many things that you could change about every single day, no matter where you're at. You go to Disneyland and be like, this could have been better. Right? You go in you go to Europe and be like, This could have been better. Absolutely anywhere you're gonna find that. That's the easy part. The hard part, like you said to your point, Pam, is finding the amazing places. Where do we do really well? So great. We didn't hit goal yesterday, but you know what we did do? We made a load ton of calls, and those calls are gonna turn into calls back for future schedule. We may not have hit goal, but we got the whole practice deep cleaned, right? How many times as a dental assistant did I clean those operatories? Because we had that hour, you know, every six DAT Pamela (18:23) Yeah. Tiffanie (18:23) months something comes about, and I'm like, great, we had a cancellation. Deep clean, ladies, like get get these suckers cleaned up so. There's always gonna be, there's always a space for the positive. And to your point, Pam, if we can keep our eyes on the positive, noticing, noticing what we didn't hit. So we're not forgetting about our goals and we're not saying, it's fine, we didn't hit goal. It's not fine, but let's look at the progress that we did make, the work that we did put in that's going to help us get to those goals and figure out what else can we do? So cool, this worked, let's keep repeating that. You know what? This one actually didn't work. So like don't repeat that. Don't keep doing something because it's something we've always done. Let's not repeat that and let's replace it with something that could work better. DAT Pamela (19:09) Yeah, yeah. You know, for some reason I just went to a a quick way to do this, and and many people have heard this before, but doing an end-of-the-day high five huddle, Tiffanie (19:19) Yeah. DAT Pamela (19:20) right? So the the second a lot the very last person leaves, you know, your patient leaves the office. I had one office that they the office manager would ring like this bell and Tiffanie (19:32) Yeah. DAT Pamela (19:32) er everyone would literally drop what they were doing and run to the front desk and they'd all stand together and it took two minutes to do Tiffanie (19:40) Yeah. DAT Pamela (19:41) and they would say, my gosh, I saw, you know, Jackie was helping Susie today and she helped clean a room. That was so awesome of you to do. Or somebody says, thank you so much for assisting with that patient. That was very difficult and I appreciate you know what you did. Really fast, a quick five minute like, how did you see, how did you show up today? What did you see from me? What did I see from you? And you know, helping teams do that in a quick end of the day, five minute huddle, then you're back to doing your thing. It ultimately leads to, I guess, change management, what Tiffanie (20:19) Yeah. DAT Pamela (20:19) you would say, and and helping the team adop adapt like a maybe a different way of thinking, a different way of doing and and wow and and really making making the change be what is what is the thing that we're focusing on. You know, this Day, month, week, whatever. Tiffanie (20:39) Yeah, I love that idea. And really it like ends the day on a positive note, which then progresses you DAT Pamela (20:44) Yeah. Tiffanie (20:45) to start tomorrow on a positive note because you left thinking about the good. So I love that idea. I think that's phenomenal. Awesome. DAT Pamela (20:52) Yeah. Yeah. Tiffanie (20:54) Well, I think that we could pretty much sum up our action items with making sure you know your goals that you're talking about your goals frequently. And doctors, I know there's a few of you out there that are like, You guys are nuts, I'm not talking to my team about my numbers. Call us, please. call us. We are huge advocates for making sure everyone knows the direction that you're rowing. So call us and let us help you figure out how to get those numbers over to your team. So know your numbers, talk about them often and allow people to have those wins. Talk about wins. Morning huddle, great place to talk about wins and I love this idea of an afternoon huddle. You can do a quick 10-minute morning huddle and then do a quick two to five minute afternoon huddle. I love the bell. I've also seen like the easy button from Staples. Whatever DAT Pamela (21:35) Mm-hmm. Tiffanie (21:37) I know I know there's actually a team I had Pam that did a song. So they would put this specific song on the radio and as soon as that song came on, as like Michael Jackson or something, right? They would all come running to the front. So end-of-day huddles DAT Pamela (21:49) I love it. Tiffanie (21:50) can be really fun. and and no matter what, making sure that everyone has that clear direction and that things are being assigned out.

We talk about "almost" being rained out, and we find out why Kevin is buying Michael Jackson dolls for his son's high school band.
Send us Fan MailA red button, a live audience, and a group chat energy that somehow turns into real life wisdom. We sit down for a long-overdue brother check-in and bounce from pure comedy to genuinely meaningful moments in the span of a few minutes, because that is what family conversations actually sound like. Along the way we talk pop culture like the Michael Jackson movie, what makes a performance feel believable, and why some films still leave big parts of the story on the cutting-room floor. Then we go full parenting mode: taking the kids to a scary movie that is “decent” to them and “really bad” to us, the trampoline park debate, and the daily reality of trying to keep kids happy without pretending everything is safe or cheap. Toy inflation hits hard when you start pricing collectibles, character dolls, and the never-ending squishy trend, and it only gets funnier when the wishlist turns into an e-bike discussion and a reminder that some kids treat traffic laws like suggestions. The heart of the conversation shows up when we start talking favorite years, anniversaries, and how fast time moves once your kids are growing up right in front of you. We share pride, memories, and the kind of emotion that sneaks up when babies start taking steps. We also squeeze in shoulder surgery plans, classic trash talk, “Silly Jokes with Sammy,” and a TV corner where we question cop-show logic and shout out what we are streaming lately.

Happy Mini Golf Day, everybody — apparently that's a thing, and naturally The Rizzuto Show immediately turns it into a debate about whether playing mini golf alone is perfectly acceptable or one of the saddest activities a human being can voluntarily participate in.Rizz says mini golf is a social activity. Lern is ready to hit the windmill alone out of spite. Rafe wants a mini golf caddy who can professionally read the break on the clown nose. And Moon brings the evidence that completely destroys any chance of this conversation remaining normal.During a family mini golf trip in Alabama, Moon encountered a wildly dressed mystery man who showed up alone, appeared to be extremely high and started playing with an enormous multicolored ice cream cone in his hand. Unfortunately, mini golf courses don't provide cup holders for gigantic desserts, so our hero developed a system: set the ice cream directly on the ground, take the shot, pick it back up and continue eating.Concrete? Yep.Wood chips? Absolutely.By the time the man starts feeding ice cream to an ostrich, we've moved beyond mini golf and into a nature documentary that absolutely nobody authorized.That's just the opening act of this comedy podcast, because the crew then tackles one of music's most dangerous arguments: which albums are truly perfect from beginning to end with absolutely no skips?Fleetwood Mac's Rumours. Guns N' Roses' Appetite for Destruction. Green Day's Dookie. Nas' Illmatic. Metallica's Black Album. Alice in Chains' Dirt. Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. Michael Jackson's Thriller. Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill. Rage Against the Machine. Weezer's Blue Album. Pearl Jam's Ten. Soundgarden's Superunknown. And plenty more get thrown into the musical Thunderdome while everybody attempts to prove their taste is objectively correct. You know, the healthiest possible way to discuss music.Then Crap on Celebrities arrives with enough entertainment news to give everyone emotional whiplash. The crew gets into concert cancellations, William Shatner fronting a heavy metal project at 95, Gnarls Barkley touring again, Sammy Hagar trying to move beyond being primarily associated with Van Halen, Calvin Harris performing for a ridiculous 1.6 million-person crowd and Kenny Loggins getting married.There are also much heavier stories as the show discusses losses in the music world, troubling news involving Carrot Top and concerns surrounding other public figures. Rafe talks about the darker side of comedy, the “sad clown” reality behind performers and how someone can appear completely fine while dealing with something much more serious underneath.Thankfully, there's some good news mixed in, including Snooki announcing she's cancer-free, before the celebrity train gets moving again with Burt Reynolds stories, George Lucas' massive museum and Spotify's most-streamed artists, songs and podcasts.And then…Florida.Sweet, beautiful, deeply confusing Florida.The show has three stories for another round of “What's Going On in Florida?” and somehow each one makes the previous story seem slightly more reasonable. There are allegations involving a woman and the family dog, a domestic disturbance that leads to an absolutely horrifying family confession, and finally an argument over farting in bed that escalates into a felony assault.At one point, Rizz is forced to acknowledge that maybe Florida really is crazy everywhere — which is inconvenient considering he still wants to move there.But hey, he just wants to live near the water.Apparently the insanity is the waterfront tax.From solo putt-putt and dirt-seasoned ice cream to perfect albums, celebrity news and Florida once again enthusiastically volunteering to provide the weirdest stories of the day, this comedy podcast has everything you need to feel significantly better about whatever questionable decisions you've made lately.Because no matter how weird your morning gets, somebody somewhere is feeding wood-chip-covered ice cream to an ostrich at a mini golf course.And that person is winning.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.
Our beloved friend Susannah B. Lewis (aka Whoa Susannah) is back, and this conversation takes us straight into both the deep AND shallow end, which of course is our favorite place to be. We start with the important things: what Susannah's theme song would be (hello, Michael Jackson), the easiest plants to keep alive, and her ever-growing love of gardening. But that conversation leads us somewhere much deeper. Susannah shares what she's been noticing in the wildflower fields and the vision God is growing in her heart for ministry there. We talk about Jesus' words in Luke 12 to "consider the wildflowers," what it actually means to consider something, and why so many of us may need to retrain our brains to slow down long enough to notice what God is doing around us. And because gardening will preach, we talk about seasons, pruning, and the reminder that sometimes cutting something back isn't cruel but necessary for future growth. Susannah also takes us behind the scenes of her writing life, including what she's learning through the self-publishing process and her newest book, Our Happy Valley Home, with its Christian Southern Gothic flavor. We wrap up with four biblical principles Dr. Dub believes every leader should live by, along with plenty of rabbit trails, laughter, and friendship along the way. Whether you're in a season of planting, pruning, waiting, or simply trying to notice what God is doing right in front of you, this conversation offers a gentle invitation to slow down, pay attention, and trust the work He is doing in your life.

Michael Swerdlick, writer of the beloved 1987 film Can't Buy Me Love, shares the remarkable story of how his first screenplay went from a typewritten script sitting on a shelf to a defining teen comedy. He reveals how Patrick Dempsey was cast at the last minute, the real-life inspiration behind the story, Paula Abdul's role in creating the African Anteater Ritual, Michael Jackson's connection to the film's title, and what he remembers about the late Amanda Peterson. Michael also reflects on his unconventional Hollywood career, his instinct to root for the underdog, and why the movie continues to resonate nearly four decades later.

Throughout pop history, groups from The Ink Spots to the Beach Boys to Fleetwood Mac all forged their sound in the alchemy of vocal harmonies, harnessing the magic that happens when different voices join as one. Then suddenly, right around the 1980s, vocal harmonies started to wane in pop. Whether it was Michael Jackson creating a new model of the solo star, music technology making the voice more like an instrument, or simply audiences wanting a new sound, today the art of vocal harmony is hard to find on the charts. But bands like Tiny Habits, whose originals and covers showcase intricate and delicate harmonies, are bringing the sound back to the people, with a message that everyone needs to sing more, and to sing together.
