Jared sits down with Emmy-winning TV writer and comedian Jamie Lee, known for Ted Lasso and her solo show My Friend Katie, to talk

If you've ever been passed over for something you really wanted, congratulations — you and Moon have something in common.In this episode of The Rizzuto Show, Moon discovers the shocking truth behind why he lost his shot at riding with the Blue Angels. After weeks of paperwork, physicals, anticipation, and what can only be described as aviation-level excitement, the dream gets grounded. The replacement? Not a celebrity. Not a war hero. Not even a local legend. The reveal sends the entire show spiraling into a hilarious investigation that somehow turns into a full-scale interrogation.Meanwhile, the gang debates who would have been an acceptable replacement. Jon Hamm? Sure. Steve Templeton? Absolutely. A famous dog? Fine. A tax mascot dancing on the side of the road? Honestly, still acceptable.Elsewhere in the chaos, the crew reacts to the bizarre vandalism targeting Steve's Hot Dogs in St. Louis. Why would someone repeatedly smash windows at one of the city's most beloved local spots? The theories get weirder, the outrage gets louder, and everyone agrees Steve deserves better.Lern takes the conversation in an unexpectedly heartfelt direction when she shares the story of a memorial bench dedicated to her late father in West Frankfort, Illinois. What starts as a conversation about hometown drama turns into one of the sweetest moments of the episode — before the show immediately ruins the sincerity by discussing wedding brawls, biker bars, and memorial statues people apparently grind on for fertility.Speaking of that...The crew somehow ends up deep in a discussion about a famous Paris cemetery statue that has become a tourist attraction for reasons no travel brochure would ever properly explain. This naturally leads to debates about Rizz's upcoming trip to France, whether the Eiffel Tower is overrated, and what kind of monument each member of the show would want after they're gone. Some answers are touching. Some answers should probably be reviewed by legal.The gang also tackles an internet debate that has parents everywhere arguing: are you raising a living-room kid or a bedroom kid? The conversation turns surprisingly relatable as everyone reflects on childhood habits, family dynamics, and why hiding in your room sometimes felt like the greatest life strategy ever invented.From Blue Angels drama and local weird news to family memories, Parisian oddities, and classic Rizz Show derailments, this episode is packed with exactly the kind of unpredictable nonsense that makes this a daily comedy show listeners love.Whether you're here for the laughs, the St. Louis stories, or the ongoing mission to find out how Moon keeps getting robbed of cool experiences, buckle up.Because no matter where the conversation starts, it never stays there.This daily comedy show delivers everything you'd expect: ridiculous debates, unexpected emotional moments, questionable travel planning, and enough side quests to make GPS systems quit.If you're looking for a daily comedy show that can go from aviation disappointment to cemetery fertility statues in under ten minutes, congratulations — you've found it.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.

No better person to break down the weird world of Mormon rules with than Alyssa Grenfell. Alyssa and I dive into everything from coffee and garments to rated-R movies, gender roles, and ear piercings, unpacking what these rules say about Mormonism, where they came from, and how they've changed over time. Alyssa shares what kind of rule follower she was, the Mormon rules she thinks are most likely to change next, and why some rules seem to matter more than others. Mormonism doesn't rule... but it definitely has a lot of rules.

What do your DNA test results, extraterrestrials, and a Florida man in a G-string have in common? Absolutely nothing... which makes this week's episode perfect.First, we dive into a wild whistleblower claim alleging the CIA has been combing through consumer DNA databases like 23andMe and Ancestry in a secret hunt for alien-human hybrids. Is this the smoking gun of UFO disclosure? A government genetic dragnet? Or just another conspiracy theory with a suspicious amount of chromosome-based confidence?Then we head to Florida, where a 74-year-old man allegedly turned a quiet neighborhood into an unwanted performance art installation while wearing little more than a G-string and repeatedly asking strangers to jump rope. It's the kind of story that raises important questions, such as "why?" and "please stop."From secret alien bloodlines to barely concealed retirement hobbies, Hysteria 51 explores the strange, the absurd, and the headlines that make humanity seem like it might actually need alien supervision. Buckle up. The truth is out there... but common sense may have already left the building this week on Hysteria 51.Links & Resources

In this UFO news update, I break down a packed few days in the disclosure world.Dylan Borland and Matthew Brown have announced a new whistleblower fund, raising fresh questions about how people coming forward are being supported, and where previous funds have actually gone.Congressman Eric Burlison is continuing to push the private contractor angle, targeting organisations like MITRE, RAND and MIT Lincoln Labs, as the search for UAP records moves beyond the Pentagon and into the grey area between government and private industry.We also look at Lauren Boebert's latest comments on classified briefings, biological beings, portals and the supernatural, plus the New York Times covering the growing conversation around UFOs, religion, demons and how disclosure may be interpreted by different communities.And finally, I cover notes from Lue Elizondo's Persona Non Grata event in Texas, including Burlison's comments on amnesty, deep underground military bases, Jake Barber, Michael Herrera and the upcoming June 9 Capitol Hill event with David Grusch and members of Congress.June could be a huge month for the UFO topic. Is this disclosure gaining momentum, or getting even stranger?

Start your free trial at trainheroic.comThis week Drew and Alex sit down with Libby Alders — chaplain, researcher, library technician, and self-described tri-vocational nerd — to actually figure out what it is, why it matters, and why the military keeps trying to slap a number on something that might not need one.This one goes deep. Grab a coffee.What we get into:What spiritual fitness actually means — Libby breaks it down to four things: knowing what you believe, understanding that beliefs should evolve, being able to coexist with people who believe differently, and being able to recognize harmful or radicalizing ideologies when they show up.The Spiritual Fitness Survey — an 18-question tool with three subscales: horizontal (community and belonging), mixed (purpose and meaning), and vertical (relationship to the transcendent or divine). Moral injury versus PTSD, and why the difference matters for who you call. Libby's shorthand: shame points toward moral injury and the chaplain. Guilt and fear point toward PTSD and psych. Why the research on religion reducing PTSD risk might be missing a confounding variable — moral injury. If the thing that gives your life meaning is also the thing that got violated, you don't have a protective factor. You have an opening.The 724th Special Tactics case study — how Libby and former podcast guest Chris ran focus groups instead of surveys, built a communication tool instead of a formal metric, and ended up with leadership asking to do their own version because the unit couldn't stop talking about it. Capability-based blueprinting — what it is, why more of the military should use it.The interdisciplinary team problem — why nobody knows when to call the chaplain, why over-specialization and over-generalization are both failure modes, and what "informed consumer" training actually looks like in practice.The table theology tangent — why the ritual of eating together is a human performance intervention that no macro calculator captures.Mentioned in this episode:Dr. Harold Koenig, Duke University — geriatric psychiatrist and pioneer in spirituality, religion, and health researchDr. Warren Kinghorn, Duke — another key name at the intersection of mental health and spiritual healthCapability-Based Blueprinting — developed within CHAMP, Dr. Chamberlain's workMatt Larson — former podcast guest, moral injury talk from the H2F Symposium coming soon to the MOPs & MOEs InstagramCharles Vogel, The Art of Community — former podcast guest, Yale Divinity School; the ritual of meals chapter alone is worth the readAllen Frances, Saving Normal — Drew and Alex's white whale guest. Chaired the DSM-IV committee. By DSM-V, had renounced the whole enterprise. If you know him, please help.Rants and Rituals — Libby's upcoming podcast.
