Case and Sam are joined by Jesse Fresco to take another pass at Sphere, the 1998 Michael Crichton adaptation starring Dustin Hoffman, Sharon Stone, and Samuel L. Jackson. They dig into a killer sci-fi premise, a stacked cast, an undersea mystery, and why the finished movie somehow feels smaller, flatter, and less frightening than all of those ingredients suggest.

The hilarious Chris Franjola joins me today, and we are diving into everything from Bhad Bhabie who happens to live right behind him alongside some bears and coyotes, to the major update on Lindsay Clancy after her husband, Patrick, granted an exclusive interview to 60 Minutes. I share my take on the OJ Simpson Juiced documentary and open up about my own past experience doing prank shows, before we dissect Sydney Sweeney's new "It's Just Sports" venture and the wild rumors that a major talent agent allegedly told her to dump Scooter Braun to land more work. Plus, with the Broadway revival of Annie on the horizon, I'm officially throwing my hat back in the ring as a former Annie, and we dissect all the red carpet drama from the Emmys, specifically Shailene Woodley's outfit and the stylist responsible for that documentary-worthy look. Between taking a trip down memory lane with Charlie's Angels, breaking down the viral, ultra-controversial pooping incident during a HYROX workout competition, pitching my new Pretty Woman script reboot centered on a male gigolo, and unpacking Oprah's heading to the Sphere, Tom Cruise posing like a Real Housewife, how Meghan Markle could easily fix her image in England if she just listened to me, and a hilarious Dancing with the Stars memory from our Chelsea Lately days, this episode is packed! -For a limited time our listeners are getting a FREE full sized Mascara on their first purchase when they use code JUICYSCOOP at checkout.

New episode out now! We take a semi-detour to a galaxy far, far away with the season three episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, “Sphere of Influence”. We debate the role of the Jedi within the Republic and talk about how they serve as diplomats, law enforcement, security, advisors, monks, or investigators whenever the need arises. We discuss how this show is for children and therefore the “mystery” is highly simplified, think the tone can swing wildly between Saturday Morning Cartoon and complicated political intrigue, pick apart the sequel trilogy at length, and are mildly amused by the George Lucas self-insert character. We also talk about bonkers Star Wars nomenclature, think it is interesting that this episode dealt with the blocking of trade routes and frustration with a slow democratic process, and lament the oversaturation and corporatization of Star Wars media as a whole. Katy forgot about LEGOs, Carrie is haunted by images of dismemberment, Maddy has a skeleton friend, and Mack does a lot of explaining (and justifying). We also are very confused by the abundance of mismatched accents, touch on the topic of gender in a galaxy full of different alien species, discuss how sci-fi / fantasy mysteries are harder to judge as they have different rules, and Mack runs a mini-game where we try to differentiate between real and fake character names. Listen to hear more about familiar props, weird animation, The Fast and the Furious, cool stunt doubles, Arthurian knights, beach towels, and the mouths of Rodians. We also want to give a shout out to voice actors – within this episode you will hear our attempted impressions of various Star Wars characters as well as John Wayne, the Green Goblin, stun lasers, goats, and more! Enjoy!“Star Wars: The Clone Wars – it's good sometimes.” - MackTW: Current global politics, John Wayne Gacy, Catholic priest scandals, racism, slavery. There is also an audible burp at 00:03:52.Show Notes:A few excellent Tumblr posts: George Lucas Star Wars v Disney Star WarsObi-Wan in the cantinaTrilogy concepts and execution comparisonKaty was wrong about Dr. Mandible being a character in Futurama. She was thinking about Dr. Zoidberg.Greedo in heelsThe music used under the game intro is “The Path of the Force” by Luis Humanoide; YouTube link here

Somehow the phrase “Big Beaver” isn't even the weirdest thing you're about to hear...Rizz recently made his first trip to Buc-ee's and came away impressed by the size, the amount of stuff and… well, that's about it. But the beaver empire definitely gets more enthusiastic when somebody messes with its logo.The crew discusses Buc-ee's legal battle with an apparel company accused of using its famous beaver on military-style merchandise, resulting in an $850,000 settlement according to the story discussed on the show. That leads straight into John Oliver trolling “Big Beaver” with parody merchandise, Lern buying the socks, and a debate over the difference between legitimately protecting your trademark and unleashing corporate lawyers on every tiny beaver within driving distance.That would already be plenty for a normal comedy podcast. Unfortunately, nobody here has ever been interested in normal.Next comes the Rizz Quiz, where six callers are given extremely difficult questions such as “What ocean borders California?” and “What color is on the bottom of a traffic light?”The results are devastating.California gets relocated to the Atlantic Ocean.The Great Red Spot moves to Mars.One father celebrates his son's 11th birthday by revealing he thinks a millennium is 100 years.And during a playoff, Justin is asked what COUNTRY is directly north of Mexico.His answer?Alaska.Not the United States.Alaska.The crew is forced to explain that this is no longer merely a geography problem.Mark eventually survives the educational apocalypse and wins the contest, while an Empire State Building tiebreaker gives the people in the studio their own opportunity to demonstrate that estimating the size of famous buildings is apparently impossible.From there, we move into accommodations.Lern was supposed to stay at a Dolly Parton-themed hotel while traveling for the Foo Fighters, but shortly before the trip she learned the hotel still wasn't ready. The staff offered to help with alternate accommodations — because that's the Dolly way — and Lern eventually landed in an Airbnb.Which leads directly to one of the most romantic vacation ideas ever discussed on the show:Buffalo Bill's house from The Silence of the Lambs.Yes, you can stay there.The crew discusses the house in Perryopolis, Pennsylvania, a town name that immediately gets roasted before anyone can even focus on the serial-killer-themed vacation rental.The house goes ALL IN.There's a recreated basement well for pictures, horror memorabilia, hundreds of horror movies, an arcade, a pool table and a motion-activated disco ball that plays “Goodbye Horses.”Apparently people have even proposed inside the well.Nothing says lifelong commitment like asking someone to marry you while recreating one of the most disturbing basements in movie history.And somehow several members of the show are completely willing to sleep there.Devon may already be in the well.Then the crew heads to karaoke, where the crew runs through songs you should probably never attempt unless humiliation is specifically why you left the house.“I Will Always Love You.”“Bohemian Rhapsody.”“Dream On.”“Take On Me.”“Chandelier.”“Somebody to Love.”“Chop Suey!”Lern and Rafe argue that bad karaoke is actually better because nobody wants to spend their night watching aspiring Broadway performers flawlessly execute songs like they're trying to get discovered between Jägerbombs.Rizz treats karaoke like The Voice.Moon has standards.And the show discovers Alan Ritchson can sing, because apparently being Jack Reacher wasn't enough and this man needed additional talents just to make the rest of us feel worse.Then Crap on Celebrities takes the wheel with Benny Blanco relationship talk, Ella Langley, Kacey Musgraves, Stevie Nicks, Black Sabbath, Metallica and the revelation that Oprah is heading to the Sphere.Initially, the room has questions.Many questions.Then Moon learns Jacob Collier is involved and suddenly transforms into Oprah's newest ticket salesman.The episode also detours through movie songs, Dirty Dancing, Titanic, Frozen, Fievel and the eternal question of whether certain movie themes are masterpieces or crimes against speakers.And then the crew walks into the room carrying a pharmacy.Rafe arrives surrounded by cold and allergy remedies because he feels something coming on and absolutely refuses to get sick. Rizz recommends chicken soup — “Jewish penicillin” — while the crew starts comparing all the exciting new ways their bodies hurt for absolutely no reason.That becomes a discussion of bizarre sleeping positions.Lern sleeps on her stomach with a hand underneath her pelvis.Moon sleeps like a vampire in a coffin.Rafe routinely wakes up with entire arms completely dead and rubs his feet together like Jiminy Cricket.Everyone is doing great.From there we get Mary Kay nostalgia, pink Cadillacs, old-school home sales parties and Rafe remembering an early comedy gig where part of the compensation came in a deeply unconventional swag bag. We'll leave it at that. YouTube a has rules.The comedy podcast then moves into fitness, where the crew discusses the famous 10,000-steps goal and a conversation about walking pace before discovering Hyrox — a standardized fitness competition involving running and workout stations. Sounds healthy. Sounds inspiring. Sounds like a great way to improve yourself.Then the show discusses a Hyrox race in Beijing where a 22-year-old Australian competitor reportedly suffered a severe bowel accident during the competition……and kept going.She won.The crew cannot believe what they're hearing.The controversy becomes less about competitive toughness and more about the fact that Hyrox involves shared workout stations, meaning everybody behind her suddenly had a problem they absolutely did not include in their training program.“A win is a win” becomes the philosophy of the day.Unfortunately, the bathroom content is not finished.The show also discusses an alleged neighbor dispute involving a bucket of human waste, proving once again that some people handle relationship drama with communication while others apparently choose biological warfare.Then air travel joins the nightmare.The crew discusses disruptive airplane passengers, Moon's frustration with constant in-flight entertainment interruptions and pilot announcements, and a flight attendant's warning that some passengers reportedly change baby diapers directly on airplane tray tables.Yes.The tray where your pretzels go.Congratulations. You will now wipe that thing down until the plastic changes color.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.Can't Hit 10,000 Steps?

Lern was supposed to stay at a Dolly Parton-themed hotel.That sentence alone sounds magical.Unfortunately, the hotel wasn't finished.After booking the Nashville stay months in advance for a trip surrounding the Foo Fighters, Lern and Tim learned shortly before arriving that their Dolly accommodations still weren't ready for actual human beings. The hotel staff was extremely accommodating — because apparently that's the Dolly way — and offered to help them find somewhere else.Lern eventually landed in an Airbnb.Which is convenient, because this funny show immediately turns into a discussion about Airbnbs that would make most reasonable people sleep in their cars instead.The crew discovers you can stay in the actual Pennsylvania house used as Buffalo Bill's home in The Silence of the Lambs. It's in Perryopolis, a town name that Moon and Rafe immediately decide needs to be investigated for crimes against geography.Perryville?Too normal.Perry Town?Not enough grandeur.Perryopolis?Now we're cooking.And the house itself has gone completely all-in.The basement scenes involving Buffalo Bill's infamous well weren't originally filmed there, so naturally the current owner had a replica constructed inside the house. Guests can climb into it, take pictures and apparently even propose marriage from inside the pit, because nothing says “spend forever with me” like recreating a serial killer's basement.There's also a motion-activated disco ball that plays “Goodbye Horses.”Worth the trip.Throw in themed packages, horror memorabilia, an arcade, a pool table and hundreds of horror movies on DVD and VHS, and suddenly the crew is seriously considering a group vacation to Perryopolis.Lern is absolutely sleeping there.Devon apparently wants the well.Everybody seems surprisingly comfortable with this.From haunted vacation rentals, the conversation makes the completely natural transition into karaoke — specifically, songs you should absolutely NOT attempt unless your goal is public humiliation.The crew runs through a ranking of brutally difficult karaoke choices, including “I Will Always Love You,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Dream On,” “Take On Me,” “Chandelier,” “Somebody to Love,” “Emotions,” “Barracuda,” “We Didn't Start the Fire,” “Informer,” “Purple Rain,” “Chop Suey!” and several other songs requiring vocal abilities that Chad from accounting simply does not possess.Lern and Rafe argue that terrible karaoke is actually the point.Nobody wants to watch twelve consecutive musical-theater kids nail obscure Broadway songs like they're auditioning for a touring production.We want danger.We want confidence unsupported by talent.We want somebody three drinks deep suddenly deciding they can sing System of a Down.That is entertainment.Rizz, meanwhile, treats karaoke like The Voice, mentally turning his chair whenever somebody actually pulls off the impossible.And yes, the crew demonstrates some of these songs themselves.You're welcome.The conversation also uncovers another deeply unfair fact about Alan Ritchson: apparently Jack Reacher can sing, too.Being enormous and handsome was already plenty, sir.Leave something for everybody else.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, and the funny show dives directly into entertainment chaos.Benny Blanco's relationship advice basically comes down to understanding your partner, communicating and not being a jerk — an apparently revolutionary romantic strategy.The crew talks Ella Langley's massive chart success, Kacey Musgraves, Stevie Nicks opening up about her history with cocaine and Klonopin, Tony Iommi reportedly passing on another Black Sabbath album and Moon explaining why producer Andrew Watt's willingness to throw endless ideas around can be such an asset in the studio.John Carpenter's admiration for Metallica also sparks speculation about how his visual style could fit with a giant immersive production.Which brings us to the Sphere.Who's next?Metallica?Oasis?Coldplay?Nope.Oprah.The show discusses Oprah Winfrey bringing an immersive production to the Las Vegas Sphere, and initially nobody can figure out what that is supposed to look like.Giant Oprah?Inspirational quotes covering 160,000 square feet?“You get a Sphere! YOU get a Sphere!”But then Moon discovers musician Jacob Collier is involved and executes one of the fastest opinion reversals in show history.Suddenly, he's in.Completely in.Moon launches into an enthusiastic defense of Collier's musicianship and creativity while everybody else tries to figure out how the conversation went from mocking Oprah at the Sphere to Moon volunteering hundreds of dollars for tickets.That's growth.Or something.Celebrity chaos continues with Stagecoach talk, Florida Georgia Line, the Emmys, Reba's Dolly Parton tribute, Dave Chappelle's announced tour and Martha Stewart apparently considering releasing nude photos.Which, naturally, gives Rafe the opportunity to invite everyone to “Martha's Vineyard.”We apologize.Things briefly get much more serious when the show discusses a reported death possibly involving a counterfeit oxycodone pill containing fentanyl. The crew talks about the danger of counterfeit pills and the importance of Narcan, including the need to call 911 and the possibility that multiple doses may be necessary in an opioid overdose.Then celebrity family drama arrives with a discussion about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's children dropping Pitt from their names, leading to a larger conversation about family relationships, famous last names and the obvious reality that none of us actually knows what happens inside somebody else's home.Finally, the episode becomes an accidental soundtrack debate.What are the greatest songs ever attached to movies?What are the worst?Titanic. Dirty Dancing. Saturday Night Fever. Rocky. Philadelphia. Frozen. Wild Wild West. The Three Musketeers. An American Tail.Moon gets emotionally invested in Fievel.Lern would like everyone to return to Patrick Swayze.Rafe remembers the reign of terror that was Bryan Adams.And somewhere along the way, Pitbull gets accused of reminding everybody that he's Mr. Worldwide in every song like he's legally required to provide identification.So yes, this episode starts with Dolly Parton hospitality, travels to Buffalo Bill's basement, crashes a karaoke bar, discovers Jack Reacher can sing, sends Oprah to the Sphere and ends up debating whether Fievel has been given the musical respect he deserves.Exactly the kind of funny show where nobody knows where the conversation is going — especially the people having it.Welcome to Perryopolis.Please put the lotion in the basket before checkout.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.

Today on The Woody Show, the Emmys happened, football is back, and celebrities are once again discovering that nobody wants politics with their concert tickets. Jo Koy takes over the studio to talk fist fights, getting rich, foot fetishes and Greg’s horrifying immature text replies. Plus, we debate whether breakdancing is actually a sport, Howard Stern barely works anymore, Oprah takes over the Sphere…and apparently being famous still isn’t enough to get you past security.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

00:01:00 — Episode 255, Now With No Action: The show proudly announces the 255th episode and immediately promises “no action,” which is both a joke and a warning.00:01:31 — Fred's Gun Show: Fred's sleeves apparently ripped right off his body because his 50-year-old arms are simply too powerful.00:02:18 — Contractually Not Celebrating Fred Again: Parker explains that they celebrated Fred last week and are not contractually obligated to do it again, then spends half the episode doing exactly that.00:03:34 — Surprise Party at Fred's Own House: Fred's wife tries to hide a surprise party while hosting it at the place where Fred lives, which is a bold logistical choice.00:04:36 — The Big Tents: Fred gets forced to set up two huge tents for a party that supposedly no one is attending. The man was building his own surprise.00:05:21 — Ocean's Eleven But Domestic: Fred realizes his buddy is trying to get him out of the house and describes the operation like a heist movie with more beer.00:06:45 — Classy Gentleman Drink: Fred, now 50 and classy, chooses Long Island iced teas as his grown-man drink of choice.00:07:09 — Fred Ascends to Heaven: Fred's camera light makes him look like he is being raptured mid-podcast, only for heaven to send back the wrong Fred.00:08:17 — Melbourne Iced Tea: Outback becomes the natural home of the “Melbourne Iced Tea,” whether or not Australia asked for that.00:09:17 — Shoe Koozie: Fred once used a shoe as a koozie for a giant Foster's can and made it his Facebook profile picture. That is internet archaeology.00:09:43 — Fred Loves Big Cans: The crew learns two things about Fred: he loves big cans, and he loves big cans.00:10:16 — The White Shorts Incident: Fred admits he did not entirely make it to the bathroom while wearing white shorts, which is basically a comedy war crime against yourself.00:12:17 — Dribbling to the Next Bar: Instead of going home, Fred continues the birthday adventure because “you only live once” and apparently white shorts are already compromised.00:13:32 — Richard Butts: Two strangers start talking about a guy named Richard Butts, and Fred loses his mind trying not to hear “Dick and Butts” over and over.00:14:50 — Not Surrounded by Dick and Butts: The crew imagines Fred dying at the restaurant and refusing to go out surrounded by Dick and Butts.00:15:11 — Give Me Your Keys: Fred's buddy finally does the responsible thing and takes his keys, which somehow feels like the most adult moment in the entire show.00:18:15 — Just Got Out of County: Fred arrives at the surprise party dressed entirely in white and immediately gets compared to someone who just left county jail.00:19:23 — White Party: Fred explains he was wearing white because he knew Labor Day was coming and wanted to get all the white out of his system.00:19:49 — Kids Playing Blackjack: Fred teaches the kids blackjack at his birthday party, which turns the celebration into a tiny casino with Capri Suns.00:22:51 — Fred's Blackjack Table: The blackjack table becomes the only thing kids care about, leaving the other party games abandoned like ghost towns.00:24:03 — Wife Wins the Gift Contest: Fred's wife tops everybody by gifting him tickets to see Jeff Arcuri in Las Vegas.00:26:16 — BLC Vegas Meeting: The show announces a Vegas trip for early February 2027 and immediately tells everyone not to tell Fred's wife.00:27:35 — Vegas Destroys the Nation: The crew decides every time BLC goes to Vegas, one more pillar of the country collapses.00:30:51 — The Promised Video Game Segment: The crew claims they have promised since episode two that episode 255 would include a video game segment. Sure. Why not.00:31:45 — First Consoles: The guys compare childhood systems, including Sega Master System, NES, ColecoVision, and Atari 2600.00:33:01 — White House Arcade: Parker describes a political arcade game set with knockoffs inspired by Tetris, Snake, Flappy Bird, and other games. The crew's reaction is basically disbelief and dread.00:35:48 — Tetris Responds: The Tetris Company distancing itself from the “Build the Wall” knockoff becomes one of the more normal parts of a very abnormal segment.00:39:17 — Wolverine Is Canadian: The Wolverine game discussion turns into the obvious conclusion: Wolverine is the meanest Canadian ever.00:41:03 — GTA Roleplay: Allan explains GTA roleplay with servers, cops, criminals, jail, trials, lawyers, proximity chat, and character rules, and Parker realizes this game may have a more functional justice system than reality.00:45:21 — Corrupt Cop Allan: Allan casually reveals he plays a corrupt cop, which somehow surprises no one.00:47:07 — Fred Has Never Played GTA: Fred admits he has never played Grand Theft Auto, and the room reacts like he has confessed to never seeing a car.00:49:52 — Leaks: GTA VI leaks turn into a perfect setup to roast Fred's earlier bathroom leak.00:50:15 — Dongs Karate: The episode swerves into a fake ad for Dongs.com and “Dongs Karate,” because apparently every weak spot in a karate fight needs branding.00:52:13 — Man vs. Chimp: The crew discusses MMA fighter Cole Johnson saying he could beat a chimpanzee, and immediately starts rooting for the chimp.00:53:18 — Put It on the Sphere: The imagined chimp fight becomes a Vegas spectacle that absolutely must be shown on the Sphere.00:55:40 — $500,000 to Fight a Chimp: The crew decides this is exactly what GoFundMe should be for: not tragedy, but funding a man's terrible decision to fight a chimp.00:57:35 — Next Up, Polar Bear: The alleged next fight is a polar bear, and the crew debates whether the human should get a sword, a knife, or nunchucks. The bear still wins.01:07:54 — Caesar D. Monkey: The fake movie franchise ends with a chimp named Caesar D. Monkey, which rolls directly back into the earlier “Dick and Butts” joke.01:09:04 — Hold On to Your Butts: The perfect closing line for an episode built on tents, white shorts, blackjack, GTA cops, and chimp combat. #blcpodcast #podcastingforthepeople #funny #podcast #greenvillesc #scpodcast #yeahthatgreenville Listen at: https://americasfavoritepodcast.com Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/blcpodcast/ Check us out on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/blcpodcast/ Buy Fred and Allan Beer: https://www.patreon.com/blcworld

Adriel Yong is the Co-Founder and COO of Clouted, the AI-native clipping and distribution company that turns long-form content into short video and routes it to the right platform and audience. Clouted has raised a $7M seed led by Slow Ventures, following a $4.45M round backed by a16z SPEEDRUN and AppWorks under its former name, Clout Kitchen. The team also produces &FRIENDS, one of the largest dance and pop-culture festivals in the Philippines.  Adriel joined Jeremy Au to work through what AI has done to media. Five or six years ago, making this podcast meant cutting every "um" by hand and building cover art from scratch, and Adriel's estimate is that roughly 80% of that work no longer exists. What moved into the space are faceless pages and fully synthetic creators, plus a third feed inside the AI apps competing for the ten hours a day. Social was meant to be the escape from bought media and is now entirely paid, and the answer engines are going the same way: people used to shape human perception, now they shape the model's. Which leaves the question of what still competes, and Jeremy's answer is not sleep, the way Netflix once put it, but real life. They work through the evidence and the strategy underneath it, from the K-shaped cinema rebound to Costco's private-label discipline mapped onto AI marketplaces, and close on the framework that AI shortens the route to purchase for things and places, but not for people.

Eight true encounters with creatures that weren't animals. Real witnesses describe skinwalkers, dogmen and wolf-like creatures that stood upright, stared back, and were never explained. These were not simply animals, or even cryptids: witnesses describe something that behaved like a paranormal, non-human entity. These are NOT fictionalised horror stories. Every account here is a documented report of the unexplained, told in the witness's own words.

Well, this one gets uncomfortable immediately.This episode of The Rizzuto Show starts with the fallout surrounding former Wheel of Fortune announcer Jim Thornton and the chat room he was reportedly spotted visiting on a flight. The organization behind that online community responds to the controversy, and suddenly the crew finds itself having a much more complicated conversation than anybody probably expected this early in the morning.The discussion centers on a difficult question: if someone recognizes that they're having dangerous or disturbing thoughts and genuinely wants professional help before ever harming another person, where should that help come from — and where is the line between providing treatment and creating an environment that could normalize or encourage those thoughts?It's exactly the kind of conversation where this comedy podcast somehow wanders from psychology and morality to robot technology and eventually a hypothetical island solution nobody should ever allow this crew to administer.Thankfully, Crap on Celebrities eventually arrives to rescue everyone from that conversation.Sort of.The Foo Fighters have quietly released a six-track live EP featuring performances from intimate club shows, with proceeds supporting local charities fighting food insecurity. So that's genuinely nice.Then the Spice Girls decide to emotionally clothesline their fans.After teasing a major announcement and getting reunion-starved fans dreaming about a possible Sphere residency, the big reveal turns out to be…a 14-disc singles collection.FOURTEEN DISCS.Somewhere, somebody had already started explaining to their spouse why spending irresponsible amounts of money to hear “Wannabe” in Las Vegas was actually a sound financial decision. Instead, congratulations: here are B-sides.Michael Jackson memorabilia also enters the conversation when one of his crystal-covered gloves from the Victory Tour heads to auction. The crew is shocked by the projected price and immediately starts calculating its future value like they're suddenly Sotheby's with fart jokes.Snoop Dogg is announced as host of the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards, Nirvana is set for the Video Vanguard Award, and the gang wonders who exactly the VMAs are for anymore. Once upon a time, you planned your entire night around MTV. Now we're explaining to the children that MTV technically still exists.St. Louis gets dragged into Crap on Celebrities too, with Sexyy Red facing a lawsuit over allegations that she posted a woman's home address and encouraged followers to attack her. Her attorney disputes the allegations, but it gives the show another opportunity to demonstrate why “celebrity news” is sometimes just a nicer phrase for “what the hell is happening?”And then we get Rick Springfield.During an appearance on Joe Rogan, Springfield discussed spending time entertaining American troops in Vietnam in 1968 and described being caught in an attack. According to his story, soldiers had him fire a mortar toward an area where enemy forces were believed to be moving. The next day, he says, a soldier told him, “you got one.”That revelation leads to a very serious discussion about the emotional weight Springfield says he still carries from the experience.It also leads Rafe to have…questions.A lot of questions.The crew debates the details of the story, how a teenage musician visiting troops ends up operating a mortar, what training would have been necessary, how anyone could have confirmed the result afterward and whether decades can alter the way people remember extraordinary experiences.It's heavy, strange and exactly the kind of story this comedy podcast can spend fifteen seconds respectfully processing before somebody notices Springfield used the phrase “hard to land with me” while talking about firing a mortar.Celebrity chaos continues with Nobody Wants This, the return of Practical Magic, Sandra Bullock, some rough Rotten Tomatoes scores, Liam Neeson continuing his lifelong commitment to finding people, and an Oasis documentary apparently becoming the safest movie choice of the weekend.The crew also discusses a documentary examining Alec Baldwin during the legal fallout surrounding the Rust shooting before Lern tries to brighten a show filled with unusually serious subjects by bringing in Dolly Parton and a posthumously released recording of “Bound to Ride.”That immediately creates another important Rizzuto Show question: exactly where are you supposed to listen to bluegrass?Driving sadly through the countryside? Silver Dollar City? Somewhere near Branson while buying a pop gun?We may never know.Then it's celebrity birthdays, Brian De Palma appreciation, a reminder that Carlito's Way deserves your attention and, because we apparently weren't already operating at maximum weirdness, the traditional porno birthday.Today's show is a comedy podcast built around the Rizz Show's greatest skill: taking one genuinely difficult topic, following it with celebrity gossip, somehow finding Rick Springfield holding a mortar in Vietnam, and ending up discussing Spice Girls box sets, Dolly Parton and movies nobody should ever have been forced to title.It's thoughtful. It's uncomfortable. It's ridiculous.In other words, everybody made it to work.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.

Welcome to another episode of The Rizzuto Show, where getting stitches removed somehow leads to naked shopping, bathroom trauma, fart acceptance, a landfill cat rescue and a serious debate over whether anybody under 25 knows what cash is anymore.This funny show starts with Rizz preparing to finally get his stitches removed and worrying about the scar underneath. Naturally, this becomes a conversation about aging, falling down stairs, mysterious back injuries, hearing loss, stretching just to remain operational and the depressing discovery that modern medicine may be helping us live longer without necessarily making those extra years more comfortable. Welcome to the Geriatric Morning Show. Please bend at the knees when exiting. Then Rizz offers the crew a choice between a nice story and somebody getting naked at Home Goods. Guess which one wins.A Florida shopper reportedly walks into Home Goods, apologizes to a woman, drops his pants and eventually ends up wandering around the store naked. This somehow inspires Lern to consider whether shopping at Home Goods completely nude might actually be enjoyable under the correct circumstances. Soon the crew is discussing nudist resorts, naked grocery shopping and towel etiquette because we apparently abandoned the original story somewhere around decorative throw pillows.That also gives Rafe the opportunity to share his own recent encounter with unexpected nudity: walking into a restaurant bathroom and finding a grown man at the urinal with his pants and underwear completely around his ankles. Full moon. Broad daylight.Rafe's brain immediately activates what Lern describes as the human security system designed to detect either exposed butts or approaching lions. It's science. Probably.The episode then moves into an alleged MMA fighter-versus-chimpanzee story that has the crew firmly rooting for the animal and questioning every decision that led humanity to this particular moment. Thankfully, we eventually get an animal story everybody can celebrate: Mike, an eight-year-old cat accidentally thrown away inside an old couch.After the couch reaches a massive landfill, workers miraculously spot Mike stranded above a trash pit. A crew uses heavy equipment to help rescue him before animal control eventually gets him identified and reunited with his owner. Mike survives. Humanity gets one point back. Then comes one of modern society's smallest yet most powerful social anxieties: the restaurant payment screen. “It's going to ask you a quick question.” WE KNOW WHAT THE QUESTION IS.The gang debates tipping pressure, servers standing beside you while you choose a percentage and the awkward eye contact that turns paying for lunch into a hostage negotiation. A viral server offers a surprisingly simple solution: hand over the device and talk to somebody else while the customer finishes paying. Meanwhile, Gen Alpha has apparently solved another social crisis entirely: being embarrassed about farting.A dance teacher says younger students just let them rip without carrying the shame previous generations dragged around for decades. Moon is thrilled. Lern shares some personal wind-instrument history. Suddenly the Rizzuto Show is analyzing bass versus treble fart tones because NPR wasn't available.The generational divide continues when Rizz watches a young Panera cashier struggle with actual paper money. That launches a debate over whether cash is still king, whether digital money is safer, what happens if the power grid goes down and whether anyone really wants to shave pieces off a gold bar to pay for bananas at Schnucks.From there, the crew remembers the inconveniences younger generations escaped: waiting beside the family phone for an important call, giant telephone cords, payphones, snow-day announcements, shared phone lines and parents losing their minds when somebody dared call during dinner. But this episode also takes a meaningful turn.Rizz reflects on September 11 and what it means that an event still so vivid for people who experienced it is now history taught to younger generations who weren't alive when it happened. He shares memories of being in Manhattan that morning, the confusion surrounding the attacks and the way people came together afterward.The crew also discusses Wells Crowther, remembered as the Man in the Red Bandana, who repeatedly helped people escape the South Tower before losing his own life. Rizz connects the story to conversations with his daughter and the importance of remembering not only what happened, but the people who ran toward danger to help others. Well, this one gets uncomfortable immediately.The Rizzuto Show discusses the fallout surrounding former Wheel of Fortune announcer Jim Thornton and the chat room he was reportedly spotted visiting on a flight. The organization behind that online community responds to the controversy, and suddenly the crew finds itself having a much more complicated conversation than anybody probably expected this early in the morning.The discussion centers on a difficult question: if someone recognizes that they're having dangerous or disturbing thoughts and genuinely wants professional help before ever harming another person, where should that help come from — and where is the line between providing treatment and creating an environment that could normalize or encourage those thoughts?It's exactly the kind of conversation where this comedy podcast somehow wanders from psychology and morality to robot technology and eventually a hypothetical island solution nobody should ever allow this crew to administer. Thankfully, Crap on Celebrities eventually arrives to rescue everyone from that conversation. Sort of.The Foo Fighters have quietly released a six-track live EP featuring performances from intimate club shows, with proceeds supporting local charities fighting food insecurity. So that's genuinely nice. Then the Spice Girls decide to emotionally clothesline their fans. After teasing a major announcement and getting reunion-starved fans dreaming about a possible Sphere residency, the big reveal turns out to be…a 14-disc singles collection. FOURTEEN DISCS.Somewhere, somebody had already started explaining to their spouse why spending irresponsible amounts of money to hear “Wannabe” in Las Vegas was actually a sound financial decision. Instead, congratulations: here are B-sides.Michael Jackson memorabilia also enters the conversation when one of his crystal-covered gloves from the Victory Tour heads to auction. The crew is shocked by the projected price and immediately starts calculating its future value like they're suddenly Sotheby's with fart jokes.Snoop Dogg is announced as host of the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards, Nirvana is set for the Video Vanguard Award, and the gang wonders who exactly the VMAs are for anymore. Once upon a time, you planned your entire night around MTV. Now we're explaining to the children that MTV technically still exists.St. Louis gets dragged into Crap on Celebrities too, with Sexyy Red facing a lawsuit over allegations that she posted a woman's home address and encouraged followers to attack her. Her attorney disputes the allegations, but it gives the show another opportunity to demonstrate why “celebrity news” is sometimes just a nicer phrase for “what the hell is happening?”And then we get Rick Springfield. During an appearance on Joe Rogan, Springfield discussed spending time entertaining American troops in Vietnam in 1968 and described being caught in an attack. According to his story, soldiers had him fire a mortar toward an area where enemy forces were believed to be moving. The next day, he says, a soldier told him, “you got one.” That revelation leads to a very serious discussion about the emotional weight Springfield says he still carries from the experience. It also leads Rafe to have…questions. A lot of questions.The crew debates the details of the story, how a teenage musician visiting troops ends up operating a mortar, what training would have been necessary, how anyone could have confirmed the result afterward and whether decades can alter the way people remember extraordinary experiences.Celebrity chaos continues with Nobody Wants This, the return of Practical Magic, Sandra Bullock, some rough Rotten Tomatoes scores, Liam Neeson continuing his lifelong commitment to finding people, and an Oasis documentary apparently becoming the safest movie choice of the weekend.The crew also discusses a documentary examining Alec Baldwin during the legal fallout surrounding the Rust shooting before Lern tries to brighten a show filled with unusually serious subjects by bringing in Dolly Parton and a posthumously released recording of “Bound to Ride.” That immediately creates another important Rizzuto Show question: exactly where are you supposed to listen to bluegrass? Driving sadly through the countryside? Silver Dollar City? Somewhere near Branson while buying a pop gun? We may never know.Then it's celebrity birthdays, Brian De Palma appreciation, a reminder that Carlito's Way deserves your attention and, because we apparently weren't already operating at maximum weirdness, the traditional porno birthday.Nothing exposes how differently your coworkers' brains function quite like asking them to name a country in Europe and putting concert tickets on the line. The Rizzuto Show brings us another round of “Just the Two of Us,” the deceptively simple contest where callers pick two members of the show, Rafe asks five questions, and those two people attempt to match at least three answers. Easy, right? Absolutely not.Before the competition begins, Rizz takes a trip through “Back in the Day,” remembering everything from The Carol Burnett Show and Little House on the Prairie to Warrant's “Cherry Pie,” Johnny Unitas, John Ritter and one of the Internet's earliest great gifts: Nick Nolte's spectacularly disheveled mugshot. Then it's time to give away concert tickets, and suddenly this becomes the most stressful game show in St. Louis. The prize pile is loaded with Candlebox, Violent Femmes, Toadies, Babymetal and the final precious pairs of Rush tickets. Unfortunately for the listeners, their ability to attend these concerts depends entirely on whether members of the Rizz Show can agree on incredibly complicated concepts like “an ocean.”Devon and Moon kick things off for caller Adam, who wants Rush tickets. They immediately connect on France, miss each other on states beginning with M, recover with the Arch as a St. Louis tourist attraction and seal the deal with the Pacific Ocean. Adam is going to Rush. For once, this show has successfully accomplished something.Then Rizz and Moon attempt to win Babymetal tickets for Paul. They agree on baseball but immediately demonstrate why this game is dangerous when “name an Olympic sport” produces hockey and curling. Dumbbell saves them on gym equipment, but sledding versus skiing and NFL versus MLB finish the job. Sorry, Paul. The Babymetal dream has died at the hands of winter recreation.Rizz and Moon get another chance when Brad wants Violent Femmes tickets, and this time food brings everybody together. Peanut butter and jelly. Sausage pizza. Vanilla ice cream. McDonald's. Beautiful.Unfortunately, the phrase “healthy breakfast cereal” gives us Grape-Nuts, a cereal the show describes with all the enthusiasm normally reserved for eating landscaping material. Somehow that leads to confessions about demolishing boxes of Lucky Charms and Corn Pops, including the dangerous cycle of adding cereal because you have leftover milk, then adding milk because you have leftover cereal, until the box is empty and you're sitting alone with your shame. This is the nutritional guidance you expect from The Rizzuto Show. Then comes the final pair of Rush tickets.Kyle chooses Lern and Devon, setting up an alleged generational showdown between a 41-year-old and a 30-year-old. Things immediately become catastrophic. “Name a superhero.” Superman. Wonder Woman. Oh no... “Name a Disney animated movie.” The Little Mermaid. Bambi. OH NO. At this point, Kyle is watching his Rush tickets disappear in real time while Patient Zero starts sniffing around the wreckage. But then something happens. Monopoly. Netflix. Instagram. Three straight matches. THE COMEBACK IS COMPLETE. Kyle is going to Rush, Lern and Devon have successfully bridged the generational divide, and feminism survives another morning.Justin chooses Rizz and Devon for the final game, with Candlebox tickets waiting at the finish line. They match immediately on guitar. Then rock. Things are looking suspiciously competent. Naturally, it cannot last.Asked to name a famous rock band from the 1980s, Devon goes with Mötley Crüe while Rizz lands elsewhere, launching an argument over what exactly qualifies as an “'80s band” and whether Rush counts just because Moving Pictures came out in 1981. Then comes the holiday-song disaster. Devon chooses Mariah Carey's “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” Rizz chooses “Jingle Bells.” Suddenly we're debating whether the most obvious Christmas song is determined by history, kindergarten classrooms or how aggressively Mariah Carey emerges from hibernation every November. It all comes down to one final question: Name something you find on a desk. The obvious possibilities are endless. Computer. Stapler. Tape dispenser. Mouse. Rizz and Devon? Pen... and LAMP. “There will be no Candlebox today.” Brutal.Along the way, the crew also defends Candlebox's honor, remembers their early Pointfest days, argues about cereal, discusses the Raygun breakdancing documentary, makes questionable winter-activity suggestions and repeatedly proves that knowing someone for years does not mean you have any clue what word is about to come out of their mouth. That's the beauty of “Just the Two of Us.” The questions aren't difficult. The people answering them are.This episode is daily comedy at its most beautifully unnecessary: great concert tickets, easy questions, terrible instincts, miraculous comebacks, wounded callers and an astonishing amount of emotional investment in whether two adults can independently write down “McDonald's.”Come for the Rush tickets.

Dante is about to meet the first souls in Paradise, emerging from the liquid light of the moon.The poetry is lush and sensuous. The metaphors are complex and compounded. And Beatrice is a bit chilly, full of Latinisms and a condescending smile.It's a marvelous banquet for the senses, here in this first sphere, where the souls seems to emerge as reflections in the diaphanous lunar realm.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we see our first redeemed souls in heaven--and discover that Paradise is not as bright or as clear as we might expect.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:13] My English translation of PARADISO, Canto III, Lines 1 - 33.

U2 turns 50 this year, and we're celebrating with one pivotal moment from every decade of the band's career — from Larry's message board note to the Sphere. Then: a live report from a U2 tribute band show, a full "Zoo Station" deep-dive with your comments, and an EXCLUSIVE US first listen to "Alison Stewart," December's new charity remix single, before its official release.

In this second message on reform, Samuel Goulet continues unpacking what it means for the church to bring the culture of Jesus into the world—not by abandoning broken systems, but by carrying Christ's integrity, servant-hearted leadership, and ministry of reconciliation into every sphere of influence. Through Scripture and practical teaching, he challenges believers to pursue holiness, reject fear, and become people who help make crooked things straight in their families, workplaces, city, and culture.

Oracle Deck https://a.co/d/0bOgiJsrthedeckofcharacter.comA Lot to Catch Up OnI am back from Chicago — and there is a lot I want to share before we dive into a week that honestly deserves its own documentary. Bear with me; Louise asked me to keep most of this in.The Chicago/UAC trip:I ran an OPA peer group for four wonderful people over four days in an Airbnb — deeply immersive, deeply draining, deeply wonderful. I gave everything I had and came out the other side genuinely moved. Then I went to the United Astrology Conference hotel, attended an OPA dinner where I got to see so many people I love, and recorded the Kepler College Book Club live from UAC with my friend Mary Gatterudz about my series book. That's on the Kepler College YouTube channel if you want a lively discussion. I also attended a pre-workshop run by Mark Jones — an English astrologer and former psychotherapist whose work I love — and finally got to meet him in person after Zoom-only connection.I didn't stay for the whole conference. 1,500 astrologers in a hotel is a little too peoply for me. But I learned something: I can go to the hotel, meet the people I want to see, and skip most of the lectures. The lectures are available to buy by recording anyway. The connection is the irreplaceable part.The OPA and The Professional Astrologer:If you're interested in becoming a more professional astrologer, I genuinely recommend OPA — the Organization for Professional Astrology. They run peer groups and mentorships, a consulting skills course, and an Astronomy for Astrologers course. What I love about their certification is that it's not a test of your techniques and knowledge — it's about how you actually work with clients. That's the whole thing.The new revised and expanded edition of The Professional Astrologer is out, and I have a chapter in it about writing for astrology. It covers everything from the power of peer groups to the pros and cons of practicing as both astrologer and psychotherapist, to the nuts and bolts of being financially viable. Worth getting a copy.Sphere and Sundry:In my gift bag from the pre-workshop was something I want to share: an essential oil by Sphere and Sundry — sphereandsundry.com. She makes what she calls talismanic materia — remedial-grade astrological elections using organic, wild-crafted ingredients and natural oils. She describes them as a good transit in a bottle. The one I received is Venus in Taurus 3, Amatory — and I genuinely feel this was meant for the Venus Retrograde class, given Venus is heading toward Scorpio and opposing Chiron in Taurus. I'll be using it. Worth checking out.Upcoming presentations:Atlanta Astrology Association, September 17th — I'm presenting on Ceres, and apparently first-time attendees can come free. Email me at louise@louiseedington.com if you'd like the invitation details. I believe it's at 7:30pm Eastern.OPA Live, September 20th — a panel of three astrologers on the Venus retrograde. A great way to hear more about the retrograde and decide if you'd like to join the class.London School of Astrology, Chiron Weekend, October 17th–18th — on Zoom, $99, and most of the proceeds go to charity. I've been recommended by Melanie Reinhart and Brian Clarke, which still makes me catch my breath. If you're interested in Chiron and what his first return to his discovery degree means, this is the weekend for you.Venus Retrograde: Heroine's Journey — we start October 1st. Three weeks and three days from when I'm recording this, and I still have slides to finish. The price remains at $397 for the basic seven-week, eight-call course.

I think it might be a little bit explosive. Watch for it.The Cards — A First GlanceFrom the Red Seeds Tarot, the Witch Oracle, and the Deck of Character (available to buy again — links in the description):The Hierophant reversed. The Fall. Eight of Torches reversed. The Story Keeper. The Shield.That set of five says everything about this week: the guru structure collapsing, the descent into the depths, the delays and darkness of the no-moon phase, the call to rewrite the story, and a practical shield for the extraordinary amount of information that's incoming. More at the end.The Astrology at a GlanceThis is possibly the biggest week since the basket peaked in July. On September 10th alone:* Venus enters Scorpio at 0° — the exact degree of her Cazimi/Star Point on October 23rd* Mercury enters Libra — swapping signs with Venus, both heading toward retrograde in Scorpio* Uranus stations retrograde at 5°41' Gemini* The Virgo New Moon is exact at 11:27pm Eastern (separate video — go watch it)Before that: the Moon occults Jupiter on September 8th at 15° Leo — a world point. An occultation is like an eclipse of Jupiter: the Moon literally passes across the face of the planet, hiding it. This is relatively rare, and what it passes over matters. It passes over Alaska, Canada, the USA, and Greenland.The nodes remain at 29° until October 9th. Hekate has moved back past the North Node. Venus reaches the anaretic degree of Libra. Uranus barely moves all week — it's standing still. The news will be off the charts. That's not hyperbole.Day by DaySunday, September 6 (the first day of the week)The Moon is out of bounds in Cancer — way out of bounds — and there aren't many major aspects, which makes the day quieter than what follows.Moon conjuncts Ceres — the Moon in its own sign, the Great Mother in the Moon's sign, saying together: self-care, nurture, family. I chose to come home early from Chicago rather than stay through the whole conference. The Moon conjunct Ceres was opposing my Saturn, and I listened. My second daughter got engaged this month (both daughters in August — family, family, family).Venus opposes Vesta in Aries — your inner flame, your focus and commitment, your devotion to your own identity in the world. Pay attention to what comes up around that.The Moon squares Saturn retrograde (letting go of more self-limiting beliefs), sextiles the Sun at 14° Virgo (past South Node and Regulus — we are moving, even if it doesn't feel that way yet), then crosses Asteroid Lilith and Mars in Cancer — talk to the hand; what aligned, protective, guardian action are we taking now?The Moon then squares Pallas Athena and trines Nessus — seeing the poisons more clearly, with strategy and pattern-recognition behind the seeing.Monday, September 7The Moon is still in Cancer, starting to come back in bounds but not quite there.Moon sextiles Mercury — emotions and mind integrating, coming into conversation. As we move into the dark of the moon, this is an invitation: bring your feeling and your thinking together. Let them inform each other.Moon squares Eris — more inner table-flipping. What old beliefs, assumptions, and perceptions need to be overturned within you? The outer tables are turning everywhere. The inner ones matter too.Moon opposes Juno in Capricorn — our sacred contracts with the structures we live under. What have we been living by? What new structures do we want to birth? Conservative in sign, but the opposition is pushing for something different.The Moon then makes a T-square to Vesta and Venus — everything pointing inward. What are you devoted to? What are you creating? And pay attention to what comes up around Venus territory (values, relationships, desires, justice) — she goes retrograde to 22° Libra, and you're walking that ground now.At 12:49pm Eastern, the Moon enters Leo — and immediately squares Chiron in Taurus. What medicine are you bringing into your heart and into your body?The Moon then opposes Pluto (the shadow to the surface, and then the buried treasure), trines Neptune (spiritual warrior energy, the felt sense of interconnection), and sextiles Uranus — which is almost at a complete standstill. Uranus barely moves all week. It's concentrating its energy at 5° Gemini.Tuesday, September 8 — The Jupiter Occultation at 15° LeoI need to give this one proper space.At 2:36pm Eastern, the Moon occults Jupiter at 15° Leo.Fifteen degrees of a fixed sign is a world point — a degree of collective significance, felt beyond the personal into the global. And an occultation is like an eclipse: the Moon literally passes directly across Jupiter, blocking it from view. Jupiter's expansive energy — the king, the expander, the judge, the natural law — is being hidden. Absorbed. Transformed.What does this mean? Some delay in expansion. Some pause in the opportunities that have been opening. But more than that: a transformative phase. The energy of Jupiter goes underground and re-emerges with new qualities. This is the king being taken behind closed doors for a reckoning.The path of this occultation passes over Alaska, Canada, the United States, and Greenland — countries that have presented themselves, historically, as the dominant voices in global affairs.And here is what I genuinely cannot make up: the day before, the UN voted to adopt the Equal Earth Map — a new global projection that more accurately represents the actual size of the world's continents. On this map, Africa is significantly larger than we've been taught. South America is bigger. The USA, Canada, Greenland, and Russia are smaller — a more truthful picture.The USA was the only country in the UN to vote against it.Jupiter is expansion. The occultation tracks over the countries whose mapped expansion has exceeded their actual size. The timing is extraordinary.Jupiter will meet the South Node in Leo three times as it heads toward it — the fall of kings, of superpowers, of the power-over paradigm that has organized so much of modern history. Things are evening out. We're watching it happen.After the occultation, the Moon trines Pallas Athena — the strategic warrior and pattern-seer. The Moon is back in bounds. The patterns are becoming visible.The Moon starts the day at 6° Leo — the discovery degree of Chariklo. Note that. And Mercury in Virgo trines Juno — sacred contracts looked at through the lens of stewardship, meaningful work, the humble desire to do the right thing rather than the right thing as performance.Wednesday, September 9 — Dark Moon. Moon at the Eclipse Degree. Moon Conjuncts South Node.We are entering the dark of the moon — the three-day no-moon phase before the Virgo New Moon on Thursday night.The Moon is in Leo, moving toward the Sun, getting within 30° of it. And it starts the day at 20° Leo — the exact degree of the August 12th Solar Eclipse.The Moon conjuncts Hygieia at that eclipse degree — holistic, preventative health. Then trines Pallas Athena, trines Vesta, sextiles Venus at the anaretic 29° Libra. Everything pressing toward the border crossing.At 3:17pm Eastern, the Moon conjuncts the South Node at 29° — the nodes holding that eclipse degree until October 9th, charged with everything that's unfolded since August 12th. The Moon — the people, the collective emotional body — meeting the drain of the old paradigm. Having just occulted Jupiter the king. Having just been at the eclipse degree. Having just moved through all those aspects.Fall of kings. Fall of leaders. Fall of the power-over paradigm. The Moon and the people conjunct the South Node at the degree of the eclipse.You literally cannot make this up.After the South Node conjunction, the Moon moves into Virgo and conjuncts Regulus — which happens every month now, as the Moon cycles through, but this month it carries the full weight of what's been building. And Venus, still at the anaretic 29°, simultaneously sextiles the South Node and trines the North Node — releasing and building simultaneously. She is leading. After her retrograde, she is heading for the Aquarius North Node. She already knows the destination.Hekate has moved back beyond the North Node into Aquarius, going back over the ground she needs to integrate before moving forward again.Thursday, September 10 — Sign Changes and a New MoonWhat a day. Honestly, what a day.At 4:06am Eastern, Venus enters Scorpio. At 0° Scorpio — the exact degree of her Cazimi/Star Point on October 23rd, the heart of her retrograde. She is stepping into the territory she will descend through, previewing the deepest point of her underworld journey. And this Star Point at 0° Scorpio is the last Scorpio Venus Star Point in our lifetimes — I believe the next isn't until 2177. It is also the star point return for the USA. Make of that what you will.The underground river of the Venus retrograde is flowing. You can feel it if you listen.The Virgo Moon squares Uranus — which is barely moving, preparing to station.Ceres opposes Pholus — where have our needs not been met? The lid is off. Pandora's box, again. Seeing what we needed to see so we can finally move forward.At 12:20pm Eastern, Mercury enters Libra — swapping with Venus in a kind of cosmic dance. Venus has left Libra; Mercury enters. Both are heading for Scorpio and retrograde. Both will station direct on November 13th — the same day. This is rare, and I'll go deep on what it means in the Venus retrograde class.Venus at 0° Scorpio opposes Chiron in Taurus — the axis of the entire retrograde. The wound and the medicine. What is our medicine for becoming fully human in a world that has forgotten it?At 2:27pm Eastern, Uranus stations retrograde at 5°41' Gemini. Five degrees — the number of change. Gemini — media, news, communication, information. Mercury at 0° Libra (a world point) as Mercury's own sign stations into retrograde. The news is going to be off the charts.The Sabian symbol for 6° Gemini (rounding up): Workmen drilling for oil. James Burgess says: an insatiable questing for knowledge and information that can take us deep into emotional process and the uncovering of dark secrets. A zealous appetite for knowledge and understanding.The Omega symbol (Sandbach): In the far north, an ancient tower carved of ice. The degree angel is Manakel — accountability and knowledge of good and evil. He says: you have so many thoughts and perceive so many ideas that it can become difficult to decide where to focus. Don't let this overwhelm you. Keep focused on the flow. There is a spiritual rightness at work beneath all things. The simple intent to stay attuned to it is your magic.The Chandra symbol: A claw foot holding a ball. The attempt to grasp wholeness, to overcome Gemini's fragmented quality — fixing the liquid into a substantial form from which you can ascend to see the surrounding territory. The struggle is not in trying to put things together. It's to resist the distractions of lesser and trivial things.The Pleiadian symbol: A sinkhole opens up in the earth. Things are collapsing.The Azoth symbol: A book of formulas. Astrology is a symbolic language, just as mathematics is, just as alphabets are. We are writing new stories. Which brings us to the Story Keeper arriving in the cards.At 11:27pm Eastern, the Virgo New Moon — exactly nine hours after Uranus stations retrograde. I've done a full separate video and post for this. Please watch it. But know that the new moon landing nine hours after Uranus's retrograde station, with Venus and Mercury both freshly in new signs, with the basket energy still active — this is not a quiet new moon. The seeds you plant tonight carry all of this.Friday, September 11 — 25th Anniversary. Venus Day.Rest in peace all who were lost on this day.The Moon is in Virgo, just minutes past the new moon, still in the no-moon phase. New lunar cycle beginning.The Moon sextiles Mars — what aligned action are we taking now? Not the push-push-push of unchecked ambition, but the stewardship energy, the guardian energy, the action that comes from genuinely wanting to be of service.The Moon opposes Nessus — still more poisons to be named and seen. But I don't think we're much longer in this. I really don't.Mars in Cancer squares Pallas Athena in Aries — they're moving apart, but Mars is still learning: less attack, more guardian. Less force, more protection. From within, this means the same. Talk to your inner Mars.The Moon trines Juno and then moves into Libra at 7:51pm Eastern.Saturday, September 12 — Moon Conjuncts Mercury. Air Kite. Cardinal Grand Cross.The Libra Moon conjuncts Mercury at 2°31' Libra — and note the degree: 2°31' Libra directly opposes the last Venus Star Point at 2° Aries (March 22, 2025). The previous Venus retrograde's deepest point, directly activated as the Moon and Mercury meet in the sign of balance and justice. Venus is reaching back through time, reminding us of what was seeded then, and asking: what has been growing since? What is ready to be harvested — or released?Balance, harmony, justice, scales — the Mercury-Moon conjunction in Libra is a fertile meeting of heart and mind in the sign that seeks fairness. There could be some genuinely good news today.The Moon trines Pluto (more shadows illuminated, more buried treasure found), opposes Neptune forming a kite, and trines Uranus still at its station point. Fire and air kite pointing at Neptune in Aries — the spirit of new beginning, the dissolution of the old, the love-thy-neighbor energy as the basis for everything we're trying to build.Juno squares Pallas Athena — our sacred contracts pressing against the wise strategy. For me, this is the table-flipping energy of Eris in a longer arc: where unfettered power-over and greed have caused harm to people, the contracts that maintained that are collapsing. And we can have something better. The form of things that's collapsing — in politics, in institutions, in how we organize society — was always imperfect. What we build next doesn't have to be.Mercury trines Pluto, then opposes Neptune, then trines Sedna and Uranus — an air kite closing the week. Rational understanding, shadow revealed, adapting to what needs to change, the breakthrough aha moments. Stay with it all. Let it sift.The week closes with the Moon squaring Pholus and Ceres and then opposing Saturn — a brief Cardinal Grand Cross, initiating. New things beginning. Something that was seeded at the new moon is putting out its first tentative root.The Cards in DetailThe Hierophant, reversed:The original Hierophant — one who reveals sacred things — was from the Eleusinian Mysteries. There was one male Hierophant and two female Hierophantides, appointed for life, who revealed divine knowledge to the initiates and welcomed them with the laws of the Mysteries: only those with pure hands and hearts could enter the rites.But in the last quarter of the Great Wheel — as the patriarchy rose, as the rites were co-opted, as direct access to the sacred was replaced by institutional intermediaries — the Hierophant became the one who stood between you and the divine.This card, reversed, is saying clearly: you have access to divine knowledge yourself. You do not need an intercessory. Let go of the attachment to gurus and external teachers as the gatekeepers of truth. You can challenge the tradition. Everyone — everyone — has access to the sacred within them.This arrives in the week that Jupiter is occulted, that the South Node continues its fall of kings, that the astrology community continues reckoning with its own pedestals. Make no mistake: the Hierophant reversed is speaking directly to all of it.The Fall:In this deck, this is Persephone going into the underworld — and that descent is what the rites at the Eleusinian Mysteries were really about: the fall of the soul into the orbit of the Moon, not as punishment, but as initiation.The patriarchy reframed the fall as shame — the fall from grace, the fall from perfection, the original sin. The real fall, as I understand it, was the descent into the patriarchal paradigm itself. And that is what's falling now.Persephone descending is Venus descending. The Venus retrograde is coming. The underground journey — done consciously, with guides, with courage — is not the fall from grace. It is the fall toward grace.Eight of Torches (Wands), reversed:In the dark of the moon, with Uranus at a standstill and so many signs changing simultaneously — yes, you may feel like you lack momentum. Delays, obstacles, nothing quite moving forward. That's the reversal.But here's what's actually happening: knowledge is being revealed to you. There is so much coming in this week — the occultation, the sign changes, the station, the new moon, the news. The work is to let it in without being overwhelmed. Receive it. Let it settle. When the moon starts to gain light — which it will, very shortly — you will be able to see more clearly.The Story Keeper (Witch Oracle):“You are made of moonlight and stories. The night and the trees know this. Which is why, when you need a change in your narrative, you would do well to seek their counsel.Some stories lift us up and encourage our potential, our inherent magic. Other stories limit, diminish, or destroy our worth. You are being asked right now to consider which stories you are listening to, and which ones you are telling.Telling yourself a story of empowerment will bring a surge of energy to you. Notice how your shoulders drop, your breath deepens, your heart warms. Telling yourself a story of scarcity or disempowerment leaves you tight, small, and cramped.While we are very selective about the books we read and the stories we watch on film, we are far less selective about the stories we tell ourselves. Now is the time to question the narratives you are allowing into the ear of your spirit. Are they helpful or hurtful?A witch acknowledges her stories of lack and frustration, but she chooses to focus on the ones that nurture her vitality.”This is the Azoth symbol of the week — the book of formulas. We are writing new stories. The Story Keeper asks: which one are you writing?The Shield (Deck of Character):This is an extra card this week, from a deck I love that's available to buy again — link in the description.It's the dark of the moon. A lot of information is incoming — the news around the Uranus station and the new moon is going to be significant. The Shield says: energetically, protect yourself. Not to deflect the knowledge — we need that — but to deflect the inconsequential things. Create a boundary so you can collect what matters, and let it sift in its own time. This is a big week. You don't have to process all of it in real time.Summing UpThe Jupiter occultation at a world point, tracking over countries whose global dominance is being rebalanced on the new world map. The Moon conjuncting the South Node at the eclipse degree, the people meeting the drain, having just occulted the king. Venus entering the exact degree of her coming Star Point in Scorpio — the last Scorpio Star Point in our lifetimes. Mercury entering Libra as Venus leaves, both heading toward their retrogrades and their simultaneous direct stations. Uranus stationing at the number of change in the sign of media and news. The Virgo New Moon nine hours later. A cardinal Grand Cross to close.The Hierophant reversed says: you have always had access to the sacred. You don't need anyone between you and it.The Fall says: Persephone's descent is not a punishment. It is an initiation.The Eight of Torches says: let the knowledge land. It's doing that right now.The Story Keeper says: question the narratives you're allowing into the ear of your spirit.And the Shield says: you are going to need good energetic boundaries this week. There is a spiritual rightness at work beneath all of this. Stay attuned to it.That is your magic.— LouiseVenus Retrograde: Heroine's Journey — starts October 1st. $397 for the full journey (payment plan available).

En este episodio de La Clave Pop, conversamos con Rob Trujillo, director musical y music supervisor de las producciones en vivo de Karol G, Carín León y Juanes. El productor y director musical chileno le cuenta a Marysabel Huston cómo fue el proceso creativo detrás de la sorpresa de Bruno Mars en el SoFi Stadium durante el "Viajando por el Mundo World Tour" de Karol G, su rol como supervisor musical en el histórico debut de Carín León en la Sphere de Las Vegas —el primer artista latino en presentarse en ese recinto— y su participación en el Juanes World Tour 2026.La conversación también entra en su proceso creativo: cómo investiga a fondo a cada artista antes de una gira, cómo construye la narrativa de un show en vivo y por qué se define como un director musical "no tradicional". Rob comparte, además, una historia familiar poco conocida: su abuelo, Valentín Trujillo, fue director de orquesta de "Sábado Gigante" junto a Don Francisco por más de 60 años, y ahora Rob será el director musical del regreso de Don Francisco a la televisión con Univisión — con su primo, Valentín Trujillo III, al piano.Cierra hablando de su trabajo con Fonseca, de su nueva gira que abre en el Estadio El Campín y de su rol como director musical del homenaje a Daddy Yankee como Person of the Year en los próximos Latin GRAMMY.Sigue a Marysabel Huston en sus redes sociales: Instagram y Threads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@marysabelhuston⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@marysabelhuston⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Marysabel.Huston⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X (antes Twitter): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@hustonmarysabel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Marysabel Huston⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Créditos: Producción ejecutiva, edición y mezcla por Marysabel HustonMúsica: Una producción de Techy Fatule

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! In this week's All The Leads Mastermind, the conversation explores how agents and investors can turn probate opportunities into long-term relationships, referrals, and repeat business. Members share creative ways to grow their sphere of influence, from connecting with neighbors at estate and yard sales to staying in touch with past clients through personal calls, seasonal cards, market updates, gifts, and other memorable touches. The group emphasizes that a single probate transaction can lead to years of additional business when everyone involved is treated as a potential long-term relationship. The episode also tackles the growing role of artificial intelligence in real estate. While AI can be an incredibly useful tool, the coaches caution against blindly trusting its answers and discuss why human connection is becoming even more important as consumers are inundated with automated outreach. The conversation wraps up with practical advice on avoiding spam-labeled calls, building a sphere around out-of-state probate leads, and why the most successful lead programs combine consistent outreach, direct mail, websites, training, and long-term follow-up rather than relying on leads alone.  Key Takeaways Turn probate leads into long-term business. Stay connected with clients, family members, neighbors, and others you meet through the transaction to create future referrals and opportunities.  Look beyond the property for new opportunities. Estate sales and neighborhood outreach can introduce you to potential sellers and expand your sphere.  Stay memorable with personal touches. Calls, cards, gifts, seasonal greetings, and genuine check-ins can keep you top of mind long after the initial conversation.  Use AI, but don't blindly trust it. Verify important information and use AI as a tool rather than treating every answer as fact.  Keep the human element in your outreach. As automated calls and AI-generated marketing become more common, genuine personal interaction can help you stand out.  Don't rely on leads alone. Consistent calling, direct mail, a strong website, training, and repeated follow-up work together to create a more complete lead-generation system.  To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.  #LeadGeneration #SphereOfInfluence #ReferralMarketing #RealEstateAI Previous episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

Just when you thought Vin Diesel's greatest contribution to emotional storytelling involved family, fast cars, and staring intensely into the middle distance, he goes and surprises everybody with a heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton.Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where we apparently begin with Vin Diesel singing “I Will Always Love You” and somehow get MORE unpredictable from there.The crew tries to identify the mystery celebrity behind the surprisingly vulnerable performance before learning it's Vin Diesel—and, against all reasonable expectations, everybody is impressed. His deep voice and emotional delivery lead to the obvious conclusion that somebody should probably get this man “Ol' Man River” immediately.Then comes another Dolly Parton connection we absolutely did not have on the bingo card: Keanu Reeves.Keanu's mother, Patricia Taylor, worked as a costume designer for Dolly, including creating the famous black bunny outfit Dolly wore for her 1978 Playboy cover. That outfit eventually made its way into the Reeves household, where teenage Keanu reportedly wore it for Halloween—bunny ears, bustier, fishnets, bow tie, sneakers and all. Somehow, this only strengthens the crew's argument that Keanu Reeves may be next in line for the title of universally beloved celebrity.From there, Crap on Celebrities gets moving with Miley Cyrus seemingly entering her one-name era, discussion surrounding Kelly Osbourne and public speculation about her appearance, and Bad Wolves releasing their metal version of “Jolene.” The crew also gets into the Sphere making The Wizard of Oz even more ridiculous, chart talk, Lionel Richie's health scare following his St. Louis performance, ZZ Top continuing forward, Kelly Clarkson wrapping her talk show, Jamie Pressley's reported hotel drama, and Mel Gibson apologizing after an awkward moment involving a sign-language interpreter.You know. Normal morning activities.Then Chad Gray joins the show ahead of his 30 Years of Madness stop at Delmar Hall, and the conversation turns into a trip through three decades of heavy music.Chad talks about building a set from roughly 12 albums of material across Mudvayne and HELLYEAH, including deep cuts that force him to keep lyric sheets nearby because apparently even the guy who wrote the songs occasionally needs the musical equivalent of checking his notes.He explains how he's kept his voice intact after decades of screaming and singing, what he learned from vocal coach Melissa Cross, and how his approach has evolved from essentially hitting every note “like a linebacker” to using more technique and finesse.The conversation gets deeper as Chad remembers being an outcast kid in Illinois and discovering heavy metal as both an identity and a tribe. That eventually leads into the incredible story of how HELLYEAH came together and Chad's first nerve-racking phone call with Vinnie Paul. Chad remembers going to Texas, entering the studio connected to Dimebag Darrell, and seeing firsthand how emotional returning to music was for Vinnie.Playing those HELLYEAH songs today remains emotional for Chad because, as he explains, performing them is one way of keeping Vinnie's memory alive.Chad also opens up about reaching five years of sobriety and how dramatically his life has changed. Rafe shares his own experience with 15 years without drinking, giving this funny podcast one of those rare moments where everybody stops roasting each other long enough to have an unexpectedly meaningful conversation.Don't worry. It doesn't become responsible for too long.The crew and Chad also revisit Mudvayne's unforgettable early-2000s rise, including their MTV appearance, winning the inaugural MTV2 award, meeting major stars backstage, and the absolutely stacked Ozzfest era. Chad reflects on what Ozzy Osbourne did for generations of metal bands by putting younger artists in front of enormous audiences and helping create opportunities that changed careers.There's talk of Peoria, Decatur, Illinois metal culture, touring, Mudvayne's future, Chad's current band, the legacy of HELLYEAH, and why sitting around waiting for something to happen simply isn't in his DNA.So yes, this episode begins with Vin Diesel singing Dolly Parton and eventually arrives at Vinnie Paul, Ozzfest, sobriety, Mudvayne history and Keanu Reeves wearing fishnets.We'd explain how those things belong together, but that would suggest this show has a plan.It does not.That's why you listen to this funny podcast in the first place.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.

Rizz is preparing for his extremely prestigious duties as a Wing Ding judge, specifically in the traditional buffalo category, which is apparently the kind of responsibility this show has been training him for his entire life. The crew debates proper wing-eating strategy, whether fasting beforehand is genius or idiotic, and naturally gets Joey Chestnut involved in the conversation without Joey Chestnut actually being there to defend himself.Then there's actual rock-star business: Chad Gray of Mudvayne is coming into the studio. That sends everybody down memory lane with LD 50, old Mudvayne tattoos, central Illinois geography and the important question nobody else had the courage to ask: what exactly does “Mudvayne” mean? Welcome to the hard-hitting journalism portion of your favorite funny podcast.September also means Sober September, an idea Rizz immediately rejects because there's a wedding coming up and apparently his liver already accepted the calendar invite. The gang talks declining alcohol consumption, cocktail attire, velvet suits, bolo ties and the possibility of Rafe attending a wedding dressed like a cowboy who recently discovered formalwear.The substance discussion somehow gives way to altitude sickness, canned oxygen and e-bikes capable of sending a teenager to school at highway speeds. With local schools introducing new rules for electric bikes and scooters, the crew reminisces about riding regular bikes to school—the primitive version that required legs, poor planning and occasionally missing first period.The crew dives into reports of understaffing, blind spots, online creep behavior and the increasingly obvious conclusion that some people desperately need hobbies that don't result in police reports.Just when you thought Vin Diesel's greatest contribution to emotional storytelling involved family, fast cars, and staring intensely into the middle distance, he goes and surprises everybody with a heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton.Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where we apparently begin with Vin Diesel singing “I Will Always Love You” and somehow get MORE unpredictable from there.The crew tries to identify the mystery celebrity behind the surprisingly vulnerable performance before learning it's Vin Diesel—and, against all reasonable expectations, everybody is impressed.

Apparently, you get a social media controversy, an apology, a payment, an angry bakery owner, and millions of people choosing sides over four dollars' worth of dessert. Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, where today's funny podcast begins with celebrity birthdays and quickly escalates into the Great Cake Pop Incident.First, Rizz runs through another batch of celebrity birthdays, including Zendaya, Gloria Estefan, Billy Blanks, Dr. Phil, Barry Gibb, and Lily Tomlin. Naturally, Billy Blanks gives Rafe the opportunity to explain how knowing Tae Bo has apparently prepared him for street combat. Nothing says “please don't fight me” quite like threatening a man with a dance kick.After dessert-based international diplomacy fails, First Alert 4 morning anchors Claire Kellett and Maurice Drummond join the show to talk about the launch of First Alert 4 on ABC in St. Louis. We compare morning-show schedules and discover that waking up around 2:30 a.m. is apparently a perfectly normal lifestyle choice when you've abandoned all hope of respecting your circadian rhythm.Claire and Maurice talk about balancing early mornings with family life, the changing television business, working alongside people who become family, and what it means to be part of the daily routine for viewers across St. Louis. Maurice looks back on his years covering sports, including Cardinals World Series celebrations, the Blues winning the Stanley Cup, and Mizzou's huge win over Kansas at Arrowhead. Claire shares memories from covering Ferguson and talks about growing up in the St. Louis area before eventually coming home to work in local television.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.Cannabis use linked to 37% higher stroke risk in massive studyCannabis Use Disorder: What It Is, Symptoms & TreatmentMaryland Heights man charged after women say he exposed himself on Fee Fee GreenwayNSW Police say 'body' found in suitcase at Oallen believed to be sex dollSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
