The Rizzuto Show | Daily Comedy Podcast

Rizz is packing up for his only Lake of the Ozarks trip of the summer, Rose Gold Gun hitmaker King Scott sings some Simon and Garfunkel, and the hidden financial nightmare of competitive cheerleading. Between mandatory practices, travel tournaments, fundraising, choreography week, and enough expenses to qualify as a second mortgage, parents everywhere are going to feel seen. Rizz even reveals the absolutely ridiculous amount of money he offered his daughter to quit competitive cheer... and she turned him down.
The conversation somehow shifts into whether America should finally stop changing the clocks twice a year, why permanent daylight saving time already failed once in the 1970s, and whether today's world could actually handle months of kids waiting for school buses in complete darkness.
Then things take a turn only this show could make entertaining.
The crew dives headfirst into what may officially become "Diarrhea Summer" after thousands of reported illnesses connected to contaminated lettuce. They break down the parasite behind the outbreak, why Taco Bell voluntarily removed lettuce from restaurants, how to tell the difference between ordinary food poisoning and something much worse, and why absolutely nobody is going to Taco Bell for the lettuce anyway.
Naturally, that spirals into discussions about parasite cleanses, tapeworm weight-loss schemes, and whether anyone would voluntarily host a parasite if it meant fitting into smaller jeans.
Because apparently that wasn't weird enough, Rizz asks the question no one was prepared to answer: if scientists could grow meat using your own DNA, would eating it count as cannibalism? The debate quickly becomes one of the strangest conversations we've ever had as the crew imagines Rizz Burgers, Learn Nuggets, Sweet Baby Rafe barbecue sauce, and whether farting yourself after eating yourself somehow completes the circle of life.
The weird science keeps rolling as the crew explores why humans stopped eating other humans in the first place, the diseases that made cannibalism one of history's worst survival strategies, and how biology—not just morality—may have shaped one of humanity's biggest taboos.
As if that wasn't enough, the second half of the episode becomes one giant food argument. Ketchup on hot dogs. Pineapple on pizza. Steak temperatures. Miracle Whip versus mayonnaise. Fried pickles. Cilantro. Black licorice. Banana bread with walnuts. Tomato sandwiches. Pickle juice. Nearly every classic food debate gets thrown onto the table, and everyone has an opinion they're willing to defend.
Will George Wallace officially earn his third-timer status? . The crew is hit with an unbelievable story about a dog discovered locked inside an apartment after its owners moved away, sparking a passionate conversation about animal rescue, fostering, shelters, and exactly how furious everyone becomes when people treat animals like disposable furniture.
Florida once again proves reality is funnier than fiction when a 76-year-old woman receives a randomly assigned license plate that accidentally spells out "SQUEEZE ASS." Naturally, the crew spends way too much time imagining life inside a retirement community where everyone suddenly becomes interested in Nancy's new ride.
The laughs continue with another packed edition of Crap on Celebrities featuring Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding updates, Blink-182 collectibles, Slipknot recording dozens of new songs, Lana Del Rey's upcoming albums, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, celebrity birthdays, Star Wars movie memorabilia selling for millions, and an unexpectedly passionate debate ranking every Christopher Nolan film ever made.
Somehow the conversation also includes Batman, Luke Skywalker's lightsaber, Matt Damon, Al Roker, grandparents, Super Troopers, George Wallace preparations, and enough random detours to remind everyone why no meeting on this show ever stays on the agenda.
This episode kicks off with Kevin Smith dropping in before the crew dives headfirst into the newest airline seating experiments. Would you actually pay extra for an empty middle seat? Is Premium Economy worth it? Would Rafe really spend five grand for a business-class pod to Paris? The debate quickly becomes less about travel and more about the realities of being a large human trapped inside airplane geometry.
Then the chaos truly begins.
Rafe revisits some of the biggest comedy moments from the first half of the year during an unforgettable eMemorium retrospective. That means revisiting legendary fake productions like "Inner Shaft," celebrating the mysterious "Ozempic Penis" phenomenon, checking back in with the radioactive St. Louis monkeys and goat that somehow evolved into the "Lazy Entitled Millennial Monkeys," pitching Bravo's next hit dating disaster "Dukes of Haggard," and replaying Steven Tyler's heartfelt (and completely ridiculous) voicemail before Lern's surgery.
As always, the crew somehow manages to make parody songs even more ridiculous than the news stories that inspired them.
The episode wraps with this week's eMemorium honoring entertainment legends, remembering beloved local musician Bobby Rollins, catching a fake death rumor in real time, and teasing another round of Friday Fail Stories involving fake anatomy, bad criminals, and Instagram proving once again that some people really shouldn't have internet access.

Some shows have a plan.
This one boards a flight with Kevin Smith, argues over middle seats, accidentally creates an airline business strategy, and somehow lands in radioactive monkey territory before finishing with one of the most ridiculous eMemorium retrospectives we've ever done.

It's Friday, which means the crew is officially one foot out the studio door and one foot headed toward questionable weekend decisions.
Rizz is packing up for his only Lake of the Ozarks trip of the summer, but even that turns into a conversation about the hidden financial nightmare of competitive cheerleading. Between mandatory practices, travel tournaments, fundraising, choreography week, and enough expenses to qualify as a second mortgage, parents everywhere are going to feel seen. Rizz even reveals the absolutely ridiculous amount of money he offered his daughter to quit competitive cheer... and she turned him down.

The show wraps up with a listener question that's guaranteed to make every married person uncomfortable: what do you say when your spouse asks if their gray hair makes them look older? The crew debates whether honesty is actually the best policy, why compliments sometimes backfire, and how aging gracefully somehow became one of the trickiest relationship conversations imaginable.
It's another episode packed with sarcastic humor, ridiculous news, relatable parenting struggles, bizarre hypotheticals, pop culture commentary, and the kind of conversations that somehow only make sense after you've listened to the whole thing.
If you're here for daily laughs, strange internet rabbit holes, and friends arguing about absolutely everything, welcome home.

What starts as a conversation about Missouri float trips quickly spirals into absolute Rizz Show nonsense. The gang debates the best rivers to float, tells stories about cliff jumping, beer helmets, and questionable rafting decisions before taking a hard left into one of the weirdest mornings we've had in a while.
Then...the studio fire alarm goes off.
In real time, the crew debates whether to abandon the building, compares themselves to the captain of the Costa Concordia, questions maritime law, and somehow turns an emergency evacuation into comedy. Fortunately, everyone survives the "catastrophe" and returns to the studio with nothing more than bruised egos and a fresh appreciation for construction dust.
As if that wasn't enough, Learn celebrates National Hot Dog Day with Steve's Hot Dogs, the crew argues about the proper way to eat a hot dog without looking ridiculous, and everyone collectively decides the word "glizzy" deserves to disappear forever.
Missouri news keeps the chaos rolling as the crew debates higher interstate speed limits, gets completely lost trying to figure out daylight saving time, celebrates Lion's Choice landing on USA Today's best regional fast food list, and somehow manages to make basic legislation sound impossibly confusing.
Meanwhile, Moon discovers an actual beetle inside a bag of coffee, decides to brew it anyway, and accidentally sends everyone into a discussion about FDA limits on insect parts in food that absolutely nobody asked for but everyone somehow needed.
Add in bizarre lawsuits, White Castle stories, documentaries, celebrity tangents, weird news, listener emails, and the usual sarcastic back-and-forth, and you've got another completely normal day...by Rizz Show standards.

Then the building catches everyone's attention with a fire alarm, Rizz refuses to evacuate because apparently radio hosts go down with the ship, and somehow the conversation spirals into MySpace, CDs making a comeback, William Shatner becoming a metal frontman at 95, and why nobody under 25 knows who Hole is anymore.
Just another Tuesday.
This episode starts with excitement surrounding the upcoming Super Troopers 3 as the Broken Lizard crew prepares to visit the studio, giving everyone an excuse to geek out over one of the greatest comedy franchises ever made. Before they arrive, the crew jumps into Crap on Celebrities, where nostalgia absolutely takes over.
Could MySpace actually deserve more respect than it gets? Turns out the platform helped launch artists like Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Adele, and even Dane Cook before social media became the attention economy we know today. That naturally leads into everyone's embarrassing MySpace memories, Top 8 drama, party bulletins, and the strange realization that we all willingly learned HTML just to put terrible music on our profiles.
Speaking of things nobody expected to return...
CDs are suddenly making a comeback. Yes... actual compact discs. The crew debates whether anyone even owns a CD player anymore, whether physical media still matters, and whether younger generations are rediscovering something older fans never completely gave up on. It's part nostalgia, part technology debate, and part excuse for Moon to become the resident audio nerd.
Then things somehow become even stranger.
William Shatner is officially performing heavy metal songs at Riot Fest... at ninety-five years old.
If you've ever wondered how you pitch a Super Troopers sequel that somehow revolves around Farva marrying Thorny's sister... congratulations, you're exactly the kind of person who belongs here.
The Broken Lizard crew joins The Rizzuto Show to pull back the curtain on Super Troopers 3, hitting theaters August 7. They explain how the movie evolved into a massive wedding comedy inspired by real-life Indian wedding celebrations, why an elephant became part of the insanity, and how Farva once again manages to become everyone's favorite walking HR violation.
Along the way, the guys talk about stepping back into those famous uniforms, convincing Brian Cox to return after becoming television royalty on Succession, and what it's feels like watching one of the greatest actors alive casually roast everyone on set. Turns out working with Brian Cox means getting insulted by a professional... and somehow enjoying every second of it.
Of course, this wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without the rails disappearing almost immediately. Rafe spends an uncomfortable amount of time explaining his ongoing campaign to become everyone's stepdad by marrying their mothers. Somehow that transitions into discussions about prison etiquette, monster trucks replacing elephants at weddings, popcorn buckets becoming collector's items, and whether Potfest will ever actually happen.
The conversation also covers the incredible crowdfunding success behind Super Troopers 2, the eight-year journey to making the third film, hidden pop culture references fans should watch for, and why you absolutely need to stay after the credits.
If you're a longtime Broken Lizard fan, a movie nerd, or just someone who appreciates comedians who somehow built an entire career making hilarious movies with their best friends, this episode delivers nonstop laughs from start to finish.
