If your idea of a relaxing weekend includes a rogue pit bull at a charity event, a haunted A-frame cabin, and a guy waking up to a stranger standing over his bed, congratulations—you've found your people.This daily comedy episode starts with a huge thank-you to everyone who came out for Operation Food Search and helped absolutely crush the food drive. The listeners showed up, stayed all morning, and filled trucks with donations because apparently our audience enjoys doing good deeds almost as much as they enjoy making poor decisions.Then things get weird.A listener decides that "leash laws" are more of a suggestion than an actual rule and lets his dog roam free through a crowded event full of kids, other dogs, and enough audio cables to shut down an entire broadcast. Somehow the dog behaves better than its owner.Meanwhile, one of us spends the weekend at Innsbrook, where a mysterious painting crashes to the floor at 4:15 in the morning immediately after watching old episodes of Unsolved Mysteries. Was it gravity? Was it ghosts? Was Robert Stack involved? We may never know.And then comes one of the wildest stories we've heard in a while. A heavily armed prepper moves into a new rental home, goes to sleep, and wakes up to find a man standing over his bed. The story somehow gets even crazier when it turns out the "intruder" is a realtor innocently showing the house because of a paperwork mistake. Nobody gets hurt, but everyone involved definitely needs a nap and probably therapy.Elsewhere in this daily comedy chaos:We debate whether Innsbrook is basically the Hamptons of St. Louis.Tim goes full cowboy mode at a Taylor Swift and Dolly Parton-themed party.Riz and Rafe perform a deeply uncomfortable rendition of "Islands in the Stream" at a wedding.Father's Day gifts range from practical torches to futuristic neck fans that look slightly ridiculous but feel amazing.We discuss alpha-gal syndrome, heat waves in Paris, and why every town in southern Illinois suddenly seems to be thriving.Basically, if your week has already gone off the rails and it's only Monday, this daily comedy episode is here to remind you that everyone else is figuring it out as they go too.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.

The gang is heading outside for Operation Food Search, and what should be a simple canned food drive somehow turns into a full-blown carnival complete with megaphones, competitive donation strategies, and Riz spiraling because someone else might have to run the show for a few minutes. Turns out our fearless leader may, in fact, be a tiny bit of a control freak. Tiny. Like, billboard-sized tiny.Then the crew tackles life's biggest questions: Why is Gen Z suddenly obsessed with Culver's? What fast-food logo deserves permanent tattoo status? And would you wear an actual diaper just to hold your spot in the front row of a concert? The answers somehow involve Daft Punk, Led Zeppelin, George Strait, Alan Jackson, and enough bathroom-related discussion to make everyone slightly uncomfortable.There's also a trip through celebrity news and pop culture chaos, including Apple Music's most-streamed artists, Olivia Rodrigo fans apparently treating concerts like endurance sports, Chris Pratt teaching American history with comedy, and Toy Story 5 preparing to emotionally devastate all of us.Along the way, the crew pays tribute to entertainment legends, debates the most American songs of all time, and once again proves that no topic is too ridiculous for this show. One second it's Tom Hanks discussing a scene he can't watch in Cast Away, and the next it's arguing whether Free Fallin' is the perfect road-trip anthem.This is exactly what happens when a bunch of friends gather around microphones and let their brains go wherever they want. It's messy, sarcastic, occasionally heartfelt, and entirely unpredictable.In other words, it's your favorite daily comedy.Whether you're here for the celebrity gossip, the weird stories, the random debates, or simply to hear grown adults seriously discuss diaper strategy at concerts, this daily comedy delivers another beautifully chaotic episode.Thanks for hanging out with The Rizzuto Show, the daily comedy where every conversation somehow goes completely off the rails and everybody's invited.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.
What happens when The Rizzuto Show leaves the safety of the studio and heads into a parking lot? Absolute chaos… for a really good cause.In Episode 158, the gang broadcasts live from Operation Food Search's Fill-A-Truck event and immediately turns a community food drive into what definitely isn't a competition. Except it absolutely becomes a competition. There's trash talk aimed at neighboring radio stations, debates over whether oatmeal counts as a flex, and a running tally of who brought the best donations.The morning starts with listeners rolling in carrying bags of food and enough generosity to restore your faith in humanity. One listener drops off hundreds of pounds of food donations, another arrives from Texas after surviving a deer collision and driving to St. Louis with a trash bag covering a busted headlight, and somehow everyone ends up talking about cronuts and Pizza Hut uniforms.Meanwhile, the crew experiences their first-ever outdoor broadcast complete with sunglasses, overflowing parking lots, and a near-disaster involving rapidly disappearing donuts. Rafe conducts unofficial food inspections, discovers Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix among the donations, and decides the kids receiving Monster Energy drinks are about to have the most exciting afternoon ever.Then the unthinkable happens: the truck fills up way ahead of schedule. Because Rizz Show listeners don't do things halfway, the team immediately moves on to filling additional vans with donations for Operation Food Search.As if all of that wasn't enough, there are giveaways, parking-lot trivia contests, questionable science questions, Abraham Lincoln appearances, mitochondria discussions, and a lot of yelling about obtuse angles.This episode is everything you expect from a daily comedy show: community spirit, sarcastic humor, weird conversations, and the kind of random moments that somehow make perfect sense on The Rizzuto Show.Whether you're here for the funny stories, the community giving, the donut emergencies, or just to hear grown adults argue about canned goods, this daily comedy show delivers another wonderfully ridiculous morning.Thanks for supporting Operation Food Search and for proving once again that listeners of this daily comedy show will show up, show out, and probably bring snacks.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The gang is back with another episode of chaos, questionable opinions, and the kind of conversations that make you wonder how this show has lasted this long.First up, we're gearing up to Fill a Truck for Operation Food Search, collecting donations and reminding everyone that showing up with one lonely can of corn from the gas station technically counts… but we'll absolutely judge you for it. Then listener Susie from Sweet Maple Soap Company sends the crew artisan goat milk soaps, which somehow leads to a deep discussion about what scent Riz would create if given the chance. Spoiler alert: apparently he wants to smell like frying garlic.Things get weird fast.The crew dives into Netflix's latest true crime obsession, Maternal Instinct, and the unfortunate trend of people turning real-life tragedy locations into vacation destinations. Then it's off to California where neighbors are fed up with an OnlyFans creator mansion hosting parties complete with driveway handstands and G-strings. Some people are horrified. Some people are curious. Some people might have binoculars.We also discuss a new movie filming right here in St. Louis called Love on the Hill, featuring local landmarks and a surprise cameo from Ralph Macchio. Plus, the gang talks Bon Jovi's comeback, possible Faith No More reunion news, the Duffer Brothers taking an unexpected Netflix L, the mystery of why Ben Savage apparently ghosted everyone from Boy Meets World, and the possibility of an Austin Powers 4 finally becoming a reality.There are celebrity birthdays, douchebags in music history, nostalgia for Paul McCartney and Fleetwood Mac, and enough random tangents to keep your brain doing somersaults.Basically, it's another day at the office for your favorite funny podcast.If you like pop culture commentary, weird news stories, celebrity chaos, and friends roasting each other while accidentally discussing G-string aerobics, this funny podcast is exactly what your ears ordered.Thanks for hanging out with The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast that somehow turns everyday stories into complete nonsense.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Today's episode starts with a public service announcement: if you accidentally fart on a fan during a paid meet-and-greet, maybe acknowledge it. The gang dives into the internet's latest bizarre controversy involving Nathan Morris of Boyz II Men and a fan who's spent more than a decade seeking justice for one unforgettable toot.But this funny podcast isn't stopping there.We're gearing up for our massive Operation Food Search canned food drive and preparing for the first outdoor Rizz Show broadcast in years. What could possibly go wrong? Probably everything. There will be food donations, giveaways, honking from passing cars, and plenty of opportunities for us to annoy every other morning show in the building.Then it's time for a giant round of celebrity chaos. We investigate the surprising divorce filing between Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO, examine cryptic social media clues like internet detectives, and somehow end up discussing relationship boundaries and celebrity breakup theories. Because apparently everyone online has earned an honorary private investigator badge.The gang also covers rapper Mystikal's prison sentence, the latest updates on Diddy's shortened release date, and the return of James Franco to social media with videos that may or may not be extremely weird.Then we veer directly into movie nerd territory. Luke Skywalker's lightsaber is headed to auction for an absurd amount of money. Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka hat, Rocky's boxing boots, and the legendary Big Lebowski rug are all hitting the auction block. Because apparently nostalgia now has a seven-figure price tag.Elsewhere, we celebrate Father's Day by ranking television's greatest dads. Is Al Bundy actually the GOAT television father? Why does nobody appreciate Bud Bundy? And can Homer Simpson really be considered responsible?There's also a deep dive into the Allman Brothers, a discussion about seeing celebrities fart in real life, Rocky Horror Picture Show memories, Shrek's return, Chris Tucker's surprising life update, and Moon accidentally delivering a full Star Wars philosophy lecture that nobody saw coming.It's another completely ridiculous funny podcast full of celebrity gossip, weird stories, pop culture rabbit holes, and the kind of conversations that somehow make perfect sense at six in the morning.If you're looking for a funny podcast featuring fart accountability, celebrity chaos, and enough random topics to make your head spin, congratulations—you've found today's episode.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
If you ever wondered what would happen if you mixed horrifying extreme sports stories, food drive trash talk, celebrity gossip, and a Corey Feldman guitar solo into a blender, congratulations—you've found today's episode.The gang starts by gearing up for a special outdoor broadcast to support Operation Food Search, where they absolutely, positively are not making it a competition… except they totally are. Listener donations, giveaways, weird games, and signs saying "Show Me Your Cans" somehow become the official strategy.Then things take a darker turn with a shocking and tragic story out of Brazil involving a bungee jump gone horribly wrong. The crew reacts in real time, asking the same questions everyone else had: How does a bungee company forget the one thing that makes bungee jumping… bungee jumping? The conversation turns into an unexpectedly deep dive into trust, risk, and why maybe some of us are officially retired from extreme sports forever.The celebrity chaos train keeps rolling with news about Jelly Roll and Bunny XO's reported split, Corey Taylor's latest musical collaboration, and a spirited debate about Jethro Tull that somehow becomes flute slander. There are updates on Lord of the Rings, House of the Dragon, Michael J. Fox voicing a dragon, movie box office surprises, and enough entertainment news to make your group chat feel underprepared.As always, this daily comedy show finds room for birthdays, weird trivia, and another chapter in the ongoing saga of Corey Feldman. Is he self-aware? Is he misunderstood? Is he somehow both? The gang attempts to answer life's important questions and mostly ends up making each other laugh.It's another completely normal episode of this daily comedy show, which means absolutely none of it is normal. From outrageous stories and pop culture commentary to St. Louis community events and hilariously unnecessary debates, this daily comedy show proves once again that the best conversations happen when nobody knows where they're going.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show answers a question absolutely nobody asked: can King Scott identify baby food flavors while blindfolded and trapped in audio isolation?Armed with an airplane spoon, questionable parenting products, and the confidence of a man who claimed he'd "never gotten this wrong before," Scott stepped into one of the weirdest challenges we've ever put on the show. What followed was a rollercoaster of carrots, sweet peas, green beans, applesauce, chicken broth, and enough pureed mystery meat to make everyone in the room reconsider modern food science.Things start innocent enough when Scott confidently nails carrot. That's where the success story ends. Soon he's identifying sweet peas as asparagus, green beans as apricot, and repeatedly convincing himself that every suspicious meat product on earth somehow tastes like tuna. Meanwhile, Moon embraces his new role as Baby Food Sommelier, Rafe nearly loses his lunch from the smell of ham puree, and Lern spends most of the challenge laughing at Scott looking like he's awaiting sentencing in the electric chair.Along the way, the gang talks about the upcoming Operation Food Search canned food drive, broadcasting outside the station for the first time in years, and why the studio might actually be the sixth member of the show. Then it's right back to watching a grown man try to process flavors designed for people who can't legally walk yet.The real star of the show might be the baby food itself. The ham and gravy drew immediate comparisons to cat food. The chicken and broth somehow smelled worse. Multiple show members gagged. One nearly threw up. Scott requested second bites of several flavors despite clear evidence that his taste buds had already filed formal complaints.If you've ever wondered what happens when confidence collides head-on with pureed meat products, this episode delivers. It's a masterclass in bad guesses, terrible smells, and the kind of chaos that only happens when a daily radio show decides to turn one of its hosts into a giant toddler for entertainment purposes.This is exactly the kind of funny podcast nonsense that keeps us employed. It's a funny podcast filled with bad decisions, questionable food choices, and a shocking amount of discussion about tuna that wasn't actually tuna. If you love a funny podcast featuring hilarious fails, weird food challenges, sarcastic humor, and friends roasting each other for nearly half an hour, welcome home.Featuring:King Scott vs. baby foodThe ham puree incidentThe Great Tuna ConfusionMoon's elite airplane-spoon techniqueRafe's battle with nauseaMultiple audience predictionsOne very concerned future fatherEnough chicken broth to haunt a studio foreverThe Rizzuto Show: proving once again that adulthood is mostly just childhood with bills.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.
If you've ever convinced yourself you were dying only to discover you just forgot your morning coffee, congratulations—you and Moon have something in common.This episode begins with Moon's dramatic weekend health crisis, which included headaches, body aches, sweating, canceled plans, and a genuine belief that he had caught the flu. After missing parties, skipping events, and suffering through a soccer match, the shocking diagnosis arrived: accidental caffeine withdrawal. One decaf mistake later, Moon was spiraling. Two rose lattes later, he was ready to conquer the world, write albums, and possibly become mayor of Paris.Meanwhile, the crew breaks down one of the most unexpected party surprises in recent memory when former Blues star Jamie Rivers decides the perfect pool-opening gift for his fiancée Ashley is... live monkeys. Not monkey decorations. Not monkey-themed cupcakes. Actual monkeys. Naturally, the monkeys arrive during a crowded backyard party packed with guests, children, music, and enough chaos to make everyone question several life choices. The result is equal parts adorable, confusing, and mildly terrifying.The conversation somehow escalates into monkey behavior analysis, party planning mistakes, surprise animal logistics, and the realization that getting bitten by a monkey in a bikini was probably not on anyone's weekend bingo card.The gang also recaps King Scott's massive baby shower, complete with mountains of gifts, bacon, desserts, and the looming anticipation of the show's upcoming gender reveal. There are discussions about weird party foods, mysterious hot-dog cake creations, and why some recipes should maybe stay inside family cookbooks.As if that wasn't enough, Rafe conducts what can only be described as investigative journalism by revisiting a local Hooters. What follows is an unexpectedly deep exploration of restaurant culture, paper plates, silent dining rooms, forgotten glory days, and whether a restaurant can accidentally become an existential experience. It's part food review, part sociology experiment, and part cry for help.The crew also tackles one of life's toughest questions: what's the saddest food to eat alone? Cake? Ice cream? A blooming onion? The answers get surprisingly personal as stories of lonely desserts, spaghetti mishaps, old promotional cakes, and questionable life decisions come flooding out.From caffeine dependency and monkey business to restaurant nostalgia and emotional food debates, this episode delivers exactly the kind of beautiful nonsense that makes this daily comedy show what it is. If you're looking for a daily comedy show that can seamlessly connect French coffee, poolside monkeys, hot-dog cake, and Hooters trivia without ever making sense, you've found your people.One minute you're discussing legendary comedians. The next minute you're getting shot with an Airsoft gun to reveal a baby's gender. Just another completely normal day on The Rizzuto Show.Episode 101 delivers exactly the kind of chaos you'd expect from your favorite daily comedy show. King Scott finally reveals whether he's having a boy or a girl, but because this is The Rizzuto Show, the reveal involves questionable planning, poor weapon handling, and two unsuspecting coworkers standing against a wall hoping they don't get blasted. Radio professionalism remains undefeated.Before the big reveal, the gang gears up for Night of the Rizzlies at the Gateway Grizzlies game, debates who can throw the fastest first pitch without embarrassing themselves, and questions whether Moon's partially destroyed knee can survive an outfield race. The confidence level is high. The odds of injury are somehow even higher.Then things get surprisingly heated when the crew tackles one of the biggest comedy questions imaginable: Who is the greatest stand-up comedian turned actor of all time? Robin Williams? Eddie Murphy? Jim Carrey? Steve Martin? Adam Sandler? Billy Crystal? The debate spirals into movie history, personal rankings, forgotten classics, and enough opinions to start at least three internet arguments.In Crap On Celebrities, Lern brings everything from Beastie Boys news and Marilyn Manson legal updates to TV cancellations, celebrity health stories, Hulk Hogan documentary discussion, and one of the strangest medical conditions anyone has ever heard of. Apparently some people sneeze when they're too full. The show spends an alarming amount of time exploring that concept.The gang also revisits cult classics like The Cable Guy, argues over the true Mount Rushmore of 1970s rock bands, and somehow turns a discussion about diarrhea into a surprisingly detailed scientific investigation. Nobody asked for that. Yet here we are.And because becoming a father isn't stressful enough, King Scott sticks around for "Feed Baby Scott," where listeners try to identify mystery baby foods while Scott gets spoon-fed questionable purees. Future fatherhood preparation? Not exactly. Entertaining radio? Absolutely.Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show answers a question absolutely nobody asked: can King Scott identify baby food flavors while blindfolded and trapped in audio isolation?Armed with an airplane spoon, questionable parenting products, and the confidence of a man who claimed he'd "never gotten this wrong before," Scott stepped into one of the weirdest challenges we've ever put on the show.

This hour opened with a light note on weather before diving into major legal and political stories. Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway discussed coordinated pro-China attacks on her office related to a $24 billion judgment against China, as well as the BJC controversy allowing minors to deny parental access to certain medical records—a loophole she says the legislature must fix. The conversation then shifted to Wisconsin, where Judge Hannah Duggan's trial began over allegations she helped an illegal immigrant evade ICE, with coverage from Jeff Monasso explaining the federal case and potential consequences. Next, Ryan Wiggins discussed the Colorado Tina Peters case, detailing her nine-year sentence despite being a whistleblower and the federal pardon issued by President Trump, highlighting ongoing concerns over election security and machine manipulation linked to Venezuela. The hour wrapped with a lighter note on a successful local food drive organized by Wiggins, raising thousands for Operation Food Search. The final segment examined drama surrounding Candace Owens' meeting with Erica Kirk and Trump's controversial remarks on the late Rob Reiner, critiquing public reactions and social media narratives.

After 30 years of annual reports, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that it will no longer provide its Household Food Security Report, citing cost savings on “redundant, costly, politicized, and extraneous studies.” Without data from the annual report, organizations that fight food insecurity will be “flying blind” in their effort to provide resources to children, seniors and others who are vulnerable to hunger. That's according to Kristen Wild, president and CEO of Operation Food Search, who shares her concerns and hopes in the wake of the USDA's announcement.

With 4th of July right around the corner, it doesn't hurt to have a refresher course on safety tips when it comes to fireworks. Jill Devine enjoys fireworks from afar, but a firework incident from her childhood has left her less than confident when it comes to handling fireworks. Rob Cima is the VP of Missouri Pyrotechnics Association (MOpyro), a father of three and a huge proponent of fireworks safety. In addition to providing safety tips for adults, children and pets in this week's episode, Rob also discussed an event coming up in September, Sky Wars! It's the nation's largest fireworks competition to feature top pyrotechnicians: Sky Wars—from the creators of the original Pyromania—will hold its 16th annual invitational fireworks championship on Saturday, Sept. 25. Gates open at 2 p.m., and the fireworks show begins at 7:30 p.m. The event is in partnership with the developers of Innsbrook and will be held at The Village of Innsbrook Fireworks Field located at 13604 State Highway M in Wright City, MO. The more than two-hour long fireworks championship will feature invitation-only pyrotechnicians who are among the nation's top fireworks choreographers. Up to 10 highly skilled teams will create award-winning pyromusicals—or “concerts in the sky”—which combine the artistry of music and pyrotechnics. Sky Wars will feature The Fireball Dudes, who hold a world record for their signature gasoline fireballs. A wide variety of food and beverages will be available for purchase. Sky Wars' nonprofit partners include Concerned Citizens for Animal Care of Warren County and its “Raise the Woof” campaign plus a canned food drive at the show to benefit Operation Food Search and AGAPE. Tickets range from $30 to $40 per person for general admission and $145 to $160 for an all-inclusive VIP ticket. Children five and under are free. To purchase tickets or for further information, call (314) 730-0793 or visit Sky Wars website.

It can be a thankless job at times, and Jill wants these moms to know their worth, so she created the Supermom Shoutout, brought to you by Addy's Way. Each recipient will receive a custom designed Supermom t-shirt from Addy's Way, in addition to the Shoutout. This week's Supermom Shoutout goes to Sue of Wentzville, MO. Her daughter, Cassie, nominated her and said: My mom is amazing! She doesn't have little kids or a career anymore, but she when she had a career, she was also taking care of 3 kids and she didn't skip a beat. She babysat most of the neighborhood kids until they all started kindergarten. She is the person who taught me to be the wife and mother I have always wanted to be. She is my best friend. Plus, she's been amazing this past year with my father's illness, which unfortunately, led to him passing away recently. They were married for 50 years. Sue - YOU are seen and YOU are supported! To nominate a Supermom (or you can nominate yourself) email hello@jilldevine.com. Submit the name of the Supermom, where they're from, and a brief description as to why Jill should shout out this particular Supermom.

This year it’s more important than ever to shop locally this holiday season. This week we’re chatting with Maeghan Moeller, one of the owners of Lusso, a boutique in Clayton that’s been around for 20 years. Her message to shoppers is that every dollar counts when it comes to owning a small business. And to help encourage shopping small this year, Lusso has teamed up with #314Together, The Women’s Creative, Joya, and the Experience Booklet to launch “Keep it Local,” an online coupon booklet filled with discounts for dozens of local businesses. Megan Rohall of the Women’s Creative also joined us on this episode to talk about the inspiration for the booklet and how something as little as a shoutout on social media can go a long way in ensuring our St. Louis businesses survive the pandemic. Get your own “Keep it Local” card here [https://www.thenewnormalstl.com/keepitlocal/p/keep-it-local-sponsorship-w7rwt], and even better, 100% of the profits go to Operation Food Search.

Throughout Season 3, Jill Devine has talked to several guests about food: the good, the bad, and the ugly. One consistent theme, Jill has concerns about her oldest daughter, Lu, and her pickiness with food. Jill took to her social media accounts to ask for help with Lu. Carmen Berry showed up in Jill’s inbox with an amazing email. Here are some highlights: My name is Carmen and I saw your request for recipes to get kids involved in the kitchen! I am a registered dietitian, a mom to an 8-month old (and an aunt to a 2 and 4-year-old), and I work at Operation Food Search! In my role at work, I am responsible for leading the nutrition education team to facilitate and build skills and knowledge that lead to sustained healthy eating habits in the community through hands-on cooking classes, interactive grocery store tours, cooking demonstrations, nutrition presentations, and other nutrition education outreach events. Just this past year, we launched our own internal hands-on kids cooking course called Operation CHEF, Culinary Habits to Empower Families. During the 6-week course, students ages 8-12 prepare delicious recipes and learn new cooking techniques. I agree with many of your podcast guests that getting kids in the kitchen is really beneficial to open their mind to trying something new. Something else that you can try is bring your kid along to the grocery store! There are some studies that show when a kid is included in the planning of the meal and the grocery shopping, it increases the likelihood that they try the food item. But it is important to be patient and keep trying! If your kids are helping shop and cook and still refuse the food, don’t get discouraged! Never force the issue because that usually backfires. Simply continue to make fruits and veggies a part of every meal and snack and offer them in a variety of ways. Be a good role model and eat the veggies offered at each meal. Eventually your picky eater will develop a taste for a few favorites. My last resort I always suggest is what I call “stealth nutrition” which is sneaking in veggies into various recipes. I say last resort because this shouldn’t be your only strategy. It is important for picky eaters to see and experience a variety of veggies in a variety of ways. Stealth Nutrition Ideas: - You can add grated veggies to a lot of foods – fold into meatballs or meatloaf, add to a casserole, soup, or fried rice. It’s hard to pick out grated veggies since they are so small. - Making tomato sauce? Add in shredded or diced veggies. Blend up in a blender to completely hide it if you’d like. Carrots add some natural sweetness to tomato sauce. - Add fresh fruit to pancakes or muffin batters. A fun one is adding in grated carrots and apples to pancakes for a carrot cake like breakfast treat! Or make colored pancakes by adding in mashed up fruit like blueberries or raspberries to the batter. - Fold pureed butternut squash or sweet potatoes into mac and cheese. The pureed orange veggies just disappear in the cheese sauce! - Blend spinach into smoothies! I like to make a green smoothie with spinach, pineapple, banana and grapes. But if you’d like to hide it, blend it up with mixed berries. The purple hides it completely. A recipe I have attached to this email is for turkey tacos – a tried and true recipe from Cooking Matters! Your daughter can grate the carrot, dump in the cans of beans and tomatoes, measure the spices, shred the cheese, and chop the lettuce and tomato with a plastic knife! Jill was blown away by the email and invited Carmen on the podcast. They discussed the email in detail, as well as other ways to talk to Lu about food. The number one take away all parents should keep in mind – BE PATIENT AND BE A GOOD ROLE MODEL! Lastly, because of the pandemic, every other Wednesday, Operation Food Search hosts a Facebook Live – called Cooking with Carmen! If you can’t watch it live, it’s recorded, and you will always have access online.

The pandemic has taught us a lot of things and made us realize how much we take for granted; that includes a plate of food. Not just at a restaurant or one you've cooked up yourself: anything at all. Food insecurity has skyrocketed as a result of the pandemic's economic shutdown, so we check in with Operation Food Search about how they're meeting the need, why this has become such a problem, and where we can help.

What does it take to heal hunger during a pandemic? Operation Food Search collects and distributes nearly 50 tons of food daily to those in need throughout the St. Louis region.
