The Rizzuto Show | Daily Comedy Podcast

Moon is sick, and The Rizzuto Show has officially instituted a new workplace policy: WE DON’T NEED HEROES. Stay home. Keep your germs away from Scott’s newborn, Rafe’s ancient dog and everybody else who has things to do besides spending the weekend fighting whatever plague you dragged into the studio.
Things take a serious turn with a disturbing St. Louis story involving a 63-year-old retired truck driver who was attacked by multiple people after a minor car accident. A bystander recorded the assault, helping police identify suspects, but the video sparks a bigger conversation: if you witness someone being attacked, what should you actually do? Do you physically intervene and risk becoming another victim? Record evidence? Call police? The crew wrestles with where being a Good Samaritan ends and unnecessarily putting yourself in danger begins.
Galaxy Gas and recreational nitrous oxide use. After discussing a case involving a young man who reportedly lost his ability to walk after prolonged use, the crew runs through other health trends doctors are concerned about, including vaping, ketamine, energy drinks, e-bikes and influencer medicine. Turns out getting your medical advice from somebody dancing next to floating captions may have some drawbacks.
Happy National One-Hit Wonder Day! The Rizzuto Show celebrates by attempting to determine the greatest musical one-and-done of all time, and the nominees are basically a playlist from the weirdest wedding reception imaginable.
Crap on Celebrities brings the first-ever Dolly Parton Day, a celebration tied to September 25 and the Imagination Library. Lern is also preparing for the Back to the Beginning concert screening, Turnstile anticipation is reaching dangerous levels, and Nick Cannon’s 12 children somehow spark the fairly reasonable question of whether it’s physically possible to be present for that many kids.
Then this funny podcast heads into entertainment chaos with Gremlins 3, Morgan Freeman pushing back against unauthorized AI clones of his unmistakable voice, Marvel reportedly adding material to Endgame, and Nicolas Cage and Christian Bale transforming into John Madden and Al Davis. Rafe thinks Christian Bale nails it. Nicolas Cage remains impressively incapable of disguising the fact that he is Nicolas Cage.
Tommy Davidson is back in the studio, and before we can properly discuss his decades in comedy, we have to address the important stuff: New York accents, breakfast hot dogs and the cruel moment when heartburn finally comes for you.
Tommy talks about touring arenas with Katt Williams, being home during the week with his family and what it’s actually like backstage on one of those massive comedy tours. He also celebrates finally getting The Varnell Hill Show made after seven years of work and explains how a late-night conversation with Kid from Kid ’n Play eventually helped revive the character he first played on Martin more than 30 years ago.
But the conversation takes a powerful turn when Tommy shares the incredible story of his childhood. He talks about being found abandoned as an infant, being adopted by white parents involved in civil-rights work, growing up in Wyoming and Colorado, and later confronting racism from completely different directions after his family moved to Washington, D.C. It’s a remarkable piece of his life story wrapped inside a conversation that somehow also includes communes, puppies and the 21st Wayans brother.
Tommy also talks about his music ambitions, his new projects and his upcoming shows at Helium before sending us out with a Led Zeppelin-inspired Kool-Aid performance nobody knew they needed.
Katt Williams. Jim Carrey. Ace Ventura. Hollywood secrets. Stevie Wonder. Heartburn. Breakfast hot dogs.

Tommy Davidson is back in the studio, and before we can properly discuss his decades in comedy, we have to address the important stuff: New York accents, breakfast hot dogs and the cruel moment when heartburn finally comes for you.
Tommy talks about touring arenas with Katt Williams, being home during the week with his family and what it’s actually like backstage on one of those massive comedy tours. He also celebrates finally getting The Varnell Hill Show made after seven years of work and explains how a late-night conversation with Kid from Kid ’n Play eventually helped revive the character he first played on Martin more than 30 years ago.
Then this comedy podcast gets the story we've been waiting for: the backpack scene from Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. Tommy reveals the gag was dreamed up that morning, somebody basically asked if he could physically fit inside a bag, and the answer was yes — for about five minutes before survival became an issue. He also remembers Jim Carrey getting a bulldozer brought in while filming because Tommy needed to finish the scene and catch a flight.
Tommy opens up about his longtime friendship with Jim Carrey, going all the way back to their Comedy Store days before In Living Color. Their daughters were the same age, they struggled for gigs together, and years later they're still close. He also remembers the insanity of In Living Color becoming appointment television, when people would actually call your house immediately after an episode aired instead of posting their review from a couch in Buffalo.
From there, we ask Tommy to weigh in on some alleged Hollywood “open secrets,” which leads to stories involving Harvey Weinstein, celebrity culture and his own history with Sean “Diddy” Combs. Tommy recalls Diddy working as an assistant on his first movie in the early ’90s and later attending one of his parties — an experience that eventually convinced Tommy he had no interest in going back.
There’s also a Morgan Freeman encounter that did NOT go according to plan, Tommy’s friendship with Stevie Wonder and the eternal internet conspiracy over whether Stevie can somehow sense exactly who is standing nearby. Just a completely normal day on a comedy podcast.
But the conversation takes a powerful turn when Tommy shares the incredible story of his childhood.

Katt Williams. Jim Carrey. Ace Ventura. Hollywood secrets. Stevie Wonder. Heartburn. Breakfast hot dogs. And Tommy Davidson somehow fitting inside a backpack.
Just another wildly educational comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show.

Happy National One-Hit Wonder Day! The Rizzuto Show celebrates by attempting to determine the greatest musical one-and-done of all time, and the nominees are basically a playlist from the weirdest wedding reception imaginable.
“Take on Me,” “Come on Eileen,” “Tainted Love,” “Mambo No. 5,” “Mickey,” “Kung Fu Fighting,” “Baby Got Back,” “Somebody That I Used to Know,” “Tubthumping” and plenty more enter the conversation before the supposed number-one one-hit wonder is finally revealed: “Macarena.” Lern immediately objects, because apparently even the Macarena requires litigation on this funny podcast.
Before that, we discover a former 7-Eleven in Seattle has become the “Inconvenience Store,” an art experience where everything inside is deliberately inconvenient. Tangled USB cords? Check. Shoulder bags made from chip bags? Of course. Finally, somebody has captured the experience of looking for a charging cable in your junk drawer and monetized it.
Crap on Celebrities brings the first-ever Dolly Parton Day, a celebration tied to September 25 and the Imagination Library. Lern is also preparing for the Back to the Beginning concert screening, Turnstile anticipation is reaching dangerous levels, and Nick Cannon’s 12 children somehow spark the fairly reasonable question of whether it’s physically possible to be present for that many kids.
Things get considerably messier with Brooke Hogan discussing how her relationship with Hulk Hogan changed after his affair with one of her close friends. Yes. Her friend. The crew processes that extremely uncomfortable family dynamic exactly as professionally as you'd expect.
Then this funny podcast heads into entertainment chaos with Gremlins 3, Morgan Freeman pushing back against unauthorized AI clones of his unmistakable voice, Marvel reportedly adding material to Endgame, and Nicolas Cage and Christian Bale transforming into John Madden and Al Davis. Rafe thinks Christian Bale nails it. Nicolas Cage remains impressively incapable of disguising the fact that he is Nicolas Cage.
There are also movie recommendations, celebrity birthdays and Rafe promoting his upcoming Funny Bone shows — where apparently somebody has listed two resale tickets for $600. Please do not do that. Just buy the significantly cheaper real tickets and use the leftover money to purchase an irresponsible amount of Brazilian steakhouse beforehand.
And finally, one of the show's finest institutions returns: Porn Star or Weatherman.
Rafe reads a name. The contestant has to decide whether that person works in adult entertainment or professionally tells you there's a 40% chance of rain. Get two out of three and concert tickets are on the line. Lern is available as a lifeline because, in her own words, she loves both weather people and pornography.
One-hit wonders, Dolly celebrations, celebrity insanity, inconvenient art, AI voice theft and the eternal struggle to determine whether a suspiciously glamorous name belongs to a meteorologist — another educational funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show.

Moon is sick, and The Rizzuto Show has officially instituted a new workplace policy: WE DON’T NEED HEROES. Stay home. Keep your germs away from Scott’s newborn, Rafe’s ancient dog and everybody else who has things to do besides spending the weekend fighting whatever plague you dragged into the studio.
This daily comedy show then recaps the crew’s broadcast from Scott Air Force Base, where Hockley’s Bakery brought coffee cake and former NFL player Carey Davis apparently turned eating it into performance art. Rizz is trying to avoid sweets, so naturally he asks Carey to describe every bite while making direct eye contact and licking his fingers. Totally normal breakfast behavior.
Things take a serious turn with a disturbing St. Louis story involving a 63-year-old retired truck driver who was attacked by multiple people after a minor car accident. A bystander recorded the assault, helping police identify suspects, but the video sparks a bigger conversation: if you witness someone being attacked, what should you actually do? Do you physically intervene and risk becoming another victim? Record evidence? Call police? The crew wrestles with where being a Good Samaritan ends and unnecessarily putting yourself in danger begins.
That debate rolls right into MetroLink’s new turnstiles, where riders have reported people “piggybacking” through behind paying passengers. Officials say not to engage, but Rafe and Lern quickly develop a significantly less official solution involving The Crow, a trench coat and vigilante MetroLink justice. Somewhere, Batman’s attorneys are already preparing a cease-and-desist.
Then this daily comedy show gets into a much more dangerous trend: Galaxy Gas and recreational nitrous oxide use. After discussing a case involving a young man who reportedly lost his ability to walk after prolonged use, the crew runs through other health trends doctors are concerned about, including vaping, ketamine, energy drinks, e-bikes and influencer medicine. Turns out getting your medical advice from somebody dancing next to floating captions may have some drawbacks.
Relationship court is also in session after a woman writes in about her boyfriend refusing to actually say “I love you” after a year together. Instead, she gets “you too,” “love you, mean it” and — brace yourself — “wuv you.” Rizz would like him removed from society immediately. The crew debates when couples should finally say the L-word, whether love at first sight exists and how much baby talk one adult relationship can survive.
And because parenting wasn't already complicated enough, apparently “park crawls” are becoming a birthday-party thing, with kids hitting multiple playgrounds and even riding party buses between stops. That leads to the eternal argument over whether adults without children are allowed to give parenting advice. Lern says absolutely. Rizz says you can give whatever advice you want — parents are equally free to throw it directly in the trash.
Sick coworkers, seductive coffee cake, Good Samaritan dilemmas, MetroLink vigilantes, questionable health trends, “wuv you” and children apparently living the party-bus lifestyle before they can drive — another completely responsible daily comedy show from The Rizzuto Show.

Apparently nobody knows how to interact with other humans anymore, so The Rizzuto Show is here to make things significantly worse. We start with the surprisingly complicated rules of greeting people: handshake or hug? Do you stand up to shake someone’s hand? Is a kiss on the cheek acceptable? And who are these absolute maniacs greeting people they just met with a kiss on the lips?
Then fall arrives with “candlescaping,” Lern prepares to make her entire existence smell like autumn, and Gen Z informs millennials that it’s time to retire “LOL.” Unfortunately, the crew has no intention of cooperating. We also get into why adulthood seems to fly by faster every year, questionable lawsuits, AirTag tracking and one airplane story involving some extremely inappropriate behavior that guarantees you’ll never look at your seat assignment the same way again.
Crap on Celebrities brings us back to 1991 and one of the most ridiculous stretches of rock releases ever, including Nirvana’s Nevermind, Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Blood Sugar Sex Magik and Soundgarden’s Badmotorfinger. Moon also remembers that Madonna technically owes him dinner, Benny Blanco starts a conversation about whether couples should normalize farting around each other, and Jonathan Taylor Thomas lands in headlines for behavior that definitely wasn’t covered on Home Improvement.
Finally, Simpleton Trivia proves once again that intelligence completely disappears when concert tickets and a 45-second timer are involved. Basic multiplication takes down contestant after contestant, Moon forgets 9×6, Lern briefly turns 75 minus 30 into 44, and somebody mistakes Buzz Lightyear for the cowboy from Toy Story. Somewhere, an elementary-school teacher quietly removes The Rizzuto Show from their résumé.
Awkward hugs, candlescaping, generational warfare, celebrity farts, ’90s nostalgia and grown adults getting absolutely demolished by third-grade math — just another perfectly educational episode of The Rizzuto Show.
