The Rizzuto Show | Daily Comedy Podcast

Ever accidentally seen a family member naked, chased your cat through the neighborhood, or judged a grown man for wearing dog-print pajamas to Target? Congratulations. You're qualified to join The Rizzuto Show.
It's another gloriously uncomfortable episode of The Rizzuto Show, where Rizz, Moon Valjean, Lern, and Rafe Williams tackle childhood memories nobody asked to revisit, a ten-minute feline disappearance that nearly causes a neighborhood-wide emergency, and the controversial fashion statement known as wearing whatever the hell you want to Target.
This comedy podcast kicks off when Rizz discovers Moon has written one mysterious question in the show's shared notes: “Ever seen your mom naked?” No article. No explanation. Just that sentence sitting there like a psychological evaluation nobody volunteered to take.
Naturally, the conversation immediately becomes a full investigation into the Naked Mom Theory, the idea that daughters who grow up seeing their mothers naked may develop healthier body images. Lern shares her childhood experiences, including the unforgettable horror of accidentally walking in on her dad showering in a freezing Southern Illinois basement. Moon explains what got him thinking about the subject, Rafe contributes his own family memories, and Rizz tries to figure out why this conversation is happening before most people have finished their coffee.
The crew also debates whether seeing your mother-in-law's belly button changes the relationship forever. Apparently, there's an entire category of family milestones nobody put in the parenting books. And for good reason.
Meanwhile, Lern is preparing for a $500 women's wellness retreat, complete with hiking, yoga, nature therapy, an astrologist, and a weekend away from phones and everyday stress. Her goal? Peace, reflection, and reconnecting with herself. The other attendees? Already discussing midnight margaritas.
Rizz predicts that no matter how committed Lern is to personal growth, the distant sound of a blender will eventually lure her away from meditation. Rafe imagines unsuspecting deer hunters stumbling across a group of women in orange safety vests having a spiritual awakening in the Missouri woods. It's wellness meets Practical Magic, with a very real possibility of someone forgetting why they came.
Then there's the great Airbnb cleaning fee debate. Rizz is tired of paying a cleaning fee only to receive a checkout chore list longer than the actual vacation. The gang discusses Airbnb's announced restrictions on excessive guest-cleaning demands, while Lern reveals she's so obsessed with maintaining her five-star guest rating that she's practically ready to rake a gravel driveway after her family drives over it.
Some people take vacations to relax. Lern apparently takes them to protect her online reputation with strangers who own decorative throw pillows.
But nothing compares to the emotional roller coaster of Willow the Cat's Great Escape.
After discovering an open backyard gate, Lern realizes her indoor cat Willow has vanished. What follows is a frantic search involving AirTags, neighbors' backyards, flip-flops, a sports bra, and some extremely concerned yelling. The crew imagines neighborhood cat Mr. Gray introducing sheltered little Willow to the dangerous world beyond the fence, like a low-budget version of Homeward Bound.
Thankfully, Willow returns safely. The entire ordeal lasts about ten minutes, which is roughly nine minutes longer than Lern's nervous system was prepared to handle.
The show also covers a disturbing local news story involving a fatal massage-spa fire in Cahokia Heights, with discussion of the reported arson charges and the serious questions surrounding the incident. The crew shifts gears to address the tragedy before returning to the lighter side of the day's weird news.
And then comes the question dividing households everywhere:
Is it acceptable for a 27-year-old man to wear golden retriever pajama pants to Target on a Sunday?
Moon is firmly on Team Freedom. Lern doesn't particularly care what anyone wears, as long as they don't smell terrible. Rafe sees the comfort argument. Rizz, however, believes civilization is hanging by a thread and that thread is apparently made of fleece.
The gang debates pajamas in public, athleisure, Crocs, generational fashion habits, and whether putting on actual pants is really too much to ask before buying toilet paper and laundry detergent. The internet has opinions, the crew has stronger opinions, and somewhere a grown man just wants to buy paper towels while wearing pictures of golden retrievers.
Throw in the studio's malfunctioning bathroom toilet seat, memories of bizarre childhood homes, travel complaints, listener reactions, and the everyday chaos of a St. Louis morning talk show, and you've got a comedy podcast that proves no subject is too small, too awkward, or too ridiculous to become a full-blown argument.
Whether you're here for the weird family stories, funny news, local St. Louis conversations, cat-owner panic, or the freedom to dress like you just rolled out of bed, Rizz and the gang deliver the daily humor and sarcastic commentary that make this comedy podcast the perfect companion for your commute, workday, or next questionable shopping trip.
The Rizzuto Show: Come for the laughs. Stay because somebody just asked if you've seen your mom naked, and now you need to hear where this goes.

Is candy a snack? Why does choosing something on Netflix feel like a full-time job? And who the hell needs emergency sourdough hidden under their desk? Welcome to The Rizzuto Show, where Halloween is approaching, the wigs are disappearing, and nobody is qualified to investigate anything.
Rizz, Moon Valjean, King Scott Lern, and Rafe Williams are serving up a triple helping of St. Louis morning show chaos in this funny podcast packed with ridiculous debates, celebrity gossip, rock music, questionable Halloween costumes, and stories that probably should have stayed in the group chat.
First, Rizz asks a deceptively simple question: Is candy a snack or a treat? What follows is a full-blown nutritional identity crisis involving Hershey bars, Skittles, Little Debbie snack cakes, Rice Krispies Treats, applesauce, and the long-lost glory of SnackWell's cookies. Moon thinks candy deserves its own category, Lern has very specific rules about sour candy, and Rafe is just trying to figure out why everybody suddenly forgot what a snack is. Somewhere, a bag of chips is feeling extremely superior.
Then it's time for Strip Club or Daycare?, the listener game where real business names are so confusing that even the lifelines need lifelines. With names like Giggly Wiggly, Perfect Angels, The Mouse's Ear, and Touched by an Angel, callers compete for concert tickets while the crew discovers that naming a business might be the most dangerous creative exercise in America.
Meanwhile, Ludo crashes the studio to preview their three-night Halludoween celebration at The Pageant in St. Louis. The band talks costumes, different setlists, special guests, elaborate stage production, and the announcement that they're taking the following year off from the annual event. There's also a completely fictional dragon, some aggressive glockenspiel appreciation, and an incredible live performance of their Halloween song “Scare Me.” Because nothing says spooky season like a rock band showing up with an instrument nobody on the show knows how to discuss responsibly.
The music nostalgia continues with Gin Blossoms, as the crew revisits the band's '90s hits, talks about their Stifel Charity Classic appearance, and gets into the kind of rock-radio conversation that makes you realize everybody has a slightly different memory of the alternative music era. There's also a deep dive into bands touring without original members, Tom Petty guitar collectibles, and the eternal question of when a band is still technically the same band.
Then comes streaming fatigue, the modern condition where you spend 40 minutes scrolling through Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+, watch three trailers, argue about your options, and ultimately go to bed without watching anything. Rizz discovers that streaming subscribers reportedly waste 110 hours a year just looking for something to watch. Rafe accidentally chooses the wrong Halloween II, Moon can't read half the titles on his TV anymore, and Rizz's new iPhone comes with an unexpected milestone: increasing the font size. Congratulations, technology has officially become an aging simulator.
The celebrity commentary gets even more ridiculous when the gang examines Tim McGraw's extremely dramatic tan alongside family photos with Faith Hill. Is it sunshine? Bronzer? A spray-tan setting that should require a permit? Nobody knows, but everyone has an opinion, and the comparisons get increasingly unhelpful.
And just when you think this daily comedy show has exhausted its supply of nonsense, Rafe's Reba McEntire wig goes missing.
That's right. A full-scale investigation begins over a missing wig, and everyone in the studio becomes a suspect. During the search, Rafe discovers Rizz's emergency sourdough bread stash, which apparently serves as an essential workplace survival resource. Forget fire extinguishers. In this building, you're getting a loaf of bread and a motivational insult.
Halloween costume planning is equally unhinged. Rizz and Rafe are preparing for The Lost Boys, with Rizz taking on Kiefer Sutherland's David and Rafe attempting to recreate the movie's legendary saxophone player. The problem? Rafe needs an actual saxophone, an impressive tan, and enough confidence to spend the night dressed like an oiled-up '80s music-video fever dream. Lern has Boogie Nights plans involving roller skates, Moon considers costume options, and everybody debates the fine line between Halloween dedication and making a terrible personal decision.
Add in wig swaps, the mysterious Fart Police Incident, weird entertainment news, old-school rock arguments, and the everyday nonsense that somehow qualifies as a professional broadcasting career, and you've got another funny podcast from the people who can turn absolutely nothing into an entire morning of entertainment.
Whether you're here for Ludo's live performance, Gin Blossoms nostalgia, Halloween comedy, celebrity news, the snack-versus-treat controversy, or the mystery of why a grown man needs emergency sourdough, The Rizzuto Show delivers the sarcastic humor and ridiculous conversations that make St. Louis mornings just a little less normal.
It's another funny podcast full of music, laughs, questionable judgment, and grown adults behaving like they were left unsupervised at a Halloween party.
And somehow, that's exactly why you keep listening.

Is candy actually a snack? Can you tell a strip club from a daycare center? And why is Ludo threatening to take away Halloween for an entire year? Welcome to The Rizzuto Show, where the questions are ridiculous, the answers are somehow worse, and the glockenspiel is getting way too much attention.
Rizz, Moon Valjean, Lern, Rafe Williams, and the gang are back with another funny podcast packed with Halloween madness, bizarre debates, listener games, St. Louis music, and the kind of conversations that make you wonder how anyone at 105.7 The Point gets actual work done.
First up: an earth-shattering question that nobody asked but everybody suddenly has an opinion about.
Is candy a snack, or is candy a treat?
Sounds simple, right? Wrong. Apparently, this is the kind of philosophical nightmare that can bring an entire morning show to a grinding halt.
Rizz argues that snacks should be more like potato chips. Lern thinks chocolate bars might qualify, but Skittles and sour candy belong in their own category. Moon insists candy is a celebration, a bonus, or a dessert—especially while he's trying to cut added sugar out of his life. Meanwhile, Rafe is desperately trying to explain that if you're eating something between meals, it probably counts as a snack.
Then somebody brings up snack cakes.
And cookies.
And Rice Krispies Treats.
And applesauce.
And grapes.
Before long, the crew is questioning everything they've ever known about food. The only thing everybody seems to agree on is that the name “Rice Krispies Treats” makes a pretty compelling argument.
The debate also sends everyone down memory lane with SnackWell's cookies, those supposedly guilt-free desserts that made an entire generation believe eating chocolate-covered marshmallow cookies was basically a wellness routine.
Somewhere, a nutritionist just turned off the radio.
Then it's time for one of the show's most gloriously questionable games: Strip Club or Daycare?
Rafe reads the names of real businesses, and callers have to figure out whether they're looking at an establishment for adult entertainment or a place where someone should probably be teaching children their ABCs.
Sounds easy until you hear names like Giggly Wiggly, Perfect Angels, Dream On, The Mouse's Ear, Little Playhouse, and Touched by an Angel.
Suddenly, nobody is confident about anything.
Callers from around the St. Louis area—including O'Fallon, Festus, Wentzville, and Bridgeton—put their judgment to the test with Moon and Lern serving as lifelines. Unfortunately, the lifelines are occasionally just as confused as the contestants.
Some players walk away with concert tickets. Others walk away knowing they've apparently been making some very questionable assumptions about the childcare industry.
And Rizz? He's struggling to get certain words out correctly, giving Rafe approximately 47 opportunities to roast him before the next commercial break.
But the real Halloween excitement arrives when Ludo takes over the studio to preview their annual Halludoween celebration at The Pageant in St. Louis.
The band is gearing up for three nights of elaborate performances, different setlists, special guests, costumes, and the kind of theatrical production that has turned Halludoween into a tradition for fans traveling from across the country—and even overseas.
There's just one catch.
Ludo announces they're taking the following year off from Halludoween.
That's right. After this three-night extravaganza, the band plans to skip next year's event while exploring other creative possibilities.
Naturally, Rizz reacts like somebody just canceled Christmas.
The guys explain why they're stepping away temporarily, how they keep the shows fresh every night, and why fans should expect different songs, different opening acts, and a few surprises throughout the weekend.
They also break down the lineup, including The Pink Tax, Bug Hunter, Convey and Bowers, The Effects, Maddie Shell, and Stop.Drop.Rewind, along with a special appearance from the Funky Butt Horns.
Ludo promises fan favorites like “Love Me Dead” and “Lake Pontchartrain,” plus deeper cuts that might only appear on one of the three nights.
Then the crew starts asking about the stage production.
Will there be costumes? Absolutely.
Elaborate theatrical elements? Of course.
A giant fire-breathing dragon?
Well, somebody says there will be one.
Then immediately admits they made that up.
So if you're attending Halludoween specifically for the dragon, you may want to adjust your expectations.
The band also talks about how much rehearsal goes into preparing for three full nights of music, how the fan costumes have become part of the experience, and why St. Louis is such a special place for ambitious live productions.
And just when you think the interview can't get any better, Ludo performs “Scare Me” live in the studio.
It's a spooky, theatrical Halloween performance complete with eerie storytelling, big musical energy, and an unexpected star of the show: a glockenspiel.
Yes, a glockenspiel.
The crew becomes so fascinated with the instrument that the conversation nearly turns into a separate interview with the glockenspiel itself.
By the end, Rizz is practically demanding that it get its own stage moment, preferably with some Jimi Hendrix-style pyrotechnics. Because nothing says Halloween like setting a percussion instrument on fire.
From candy classifications and forgotten snack foods to confusing business names, concert ticket giveaways, Halloween costumes, and a full-blown Ludo studio performance, this funny podcast is everything that makes The Rizzuto Show a beautifully chaotic St. Louis morning show.
If you love sarcastic humor, ridiculous debates, live music, funny stories, and the kind of daily comedy that turns a harmless candy question into a philosophical crisis, this episode has you covered.
Join Rizz and the gang for another funny podcast, where candy is apparently not food, daycare names require a background check, and Ludo is taking Halloween so seriously they might need a year to recover.

We're wasting 110 hours a year looking for something to stream, some of our favorite bands have zero original members, and Tim McGraw has apparently been spending quality time inside a toaster oven.
Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where Rizz, Moon Valjean, Lern, and Rafe Williams turn everyday annoyances, music nostalgia, celebrity gossip, and questionable life decisions into another perfectly dysfunctional morning in St. Louis.
First, Rizz has officially crossed a major milestone in adulthood: he bought a new iPhone and voluntarily increased the font size.
Not all the way to giant letters. Just a little.
He's not ready for the senior-citizen phone just yet, but the clock is ticking. Moon isn't doing much better, admitting he can barely read the titles on his television's streaming menus anymore. The gang quickly realizes that aging isn't just about your knees making noises when you stand up. It's about needing reading glasses to decide whether you want to watch a movie.
Which brings us to streaming fatigue.
According to a statistic discussed on the show, the average American streaming subscriber spends 110 hours a year just searching for something to watch. That's more than four full days of scrolling through Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and everything else before eventually giving up and going to bed.
Rafe knows the struggle. He's spent entire evenings debating movie choices, only to end up watching a disappointing Halloween II remake. Rizz admits he's opened every streaming service, found absolutely nothing, and simply surrendered to sleep.
The crew even considers an incredible new invention: a service that just plays shows at scheduled times so you don't have to choose.
Yes. They've reinvented cable television.
Then it's time for a musical identity crisis.
Rizz dives into the world of classic rock bands touring without any founding members. Lynyrd Skynyrd, Little River Band, Molly Hatchet, and other legendary acts spark a surprisingly passionate debate: when the original musicians are gone, is it still the same band?
Moon argues that the spirit of a group can survive if the sound and tradition are passed down properly. Lern wonders whether younger bands would ever get away with the same thing. Rafe considers the musical version of replacing every part of a car and still calling it original.
And naturally, someone brings up KISS, GWAR, Journey, Queen, and No Doubt.
Apparently, rock and roll immortality comes with a complicated employee handbook.
The music conversation continues with a preview of Andy from Gin Blossoms calling the show and Ludo stopping by the studio. The crew reminisces about '90s alternative rock, the Gin Blossoms' biggest hits, and whether the band was secretly making music specifically for the ladies. Because nothing says sophisticated musical criticism like four radio personalities arguing about the romantic intentions of “Hey Jealousy.”
Meanwhile, the audience comes through with actual useful advice. Lern thanks listeners for helping her figure out who should deal with tree branches hanging over utility wires and how to clean cloudy headlights. Her husband Tim puts the headlight trick to the test, and the results are apparently impressive.
The Rizz Show audience: solving household problems while the hosts struggle to operate a television.
Then Lern delivers a massive helping of Crap on Celebrities, starting with Tim McGraw's induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
A tremendous honor.
Unfortunately, the internet was more interested in his tan.
The country superstar's extremely bronzed appearance becomes the subject of an extended studio investigation, with comparisons to microwaved hot dogs, bodybuilding competitions, and a spray-tan appointment that desperately needed adult supervision.
The gang also gets into Mickey Rourke thanking Bruce Springsteen and Dana White for helping him during a difficult financial period, Alex Warren's fans asking him to autograph urns containing loved ones' ashes, the Eagles extending their Sphere residency, and a new wave of music documentaries.
Moon recalls celebrating New Year's Eve in Flagstaff, Arizona, where they drop a giant pine cone at midnight. Rafe remembers an unforgettable Beale Street experience featuring B.B. King. And Lern discusses Nashville's massive New Year's Eve celebration.
There's also a limited-edition Tom Petty Flying V guitar that Moon desperately wants, an American Horror Story discussion, bizarre ancestry revelations involving the Sprouse twins, Roseanne Barr's plans for a new sitcom, and Pauly Shore's return to horror with the short film Remain Calm.
Plus, the crew talks about Christina Applegate's reported medical uncertainty, Mel Brooks returning for the Spaceballs sequel, and the upcoming Halludoween shows from Ludo.
It's streaming frustration, rock-and-roll identity theft, celebrity chaos, nostalgic music arguments, and one extremely committed country-music tan.
If you love funny stories, entertainment gossip, weird news, pop culture commentary, and the kind of sarcastic humor that makes morning radio worth getting out of bed for, this funny podcast has everything except a reasonable explanation for Tim McGraw's bronzer budget.
Join Rizz and the gang for another funny podcast from St. Louis, where the music is classic, the television menus are unreadable, and apparently the secret to becoming a country legend is looking like you've been basted in butter.
