The Rizzuto Show | Daily Comedy Podcast

Rizzuto is back from France, which means it’s finally time to answer the question nobody asked: Can one man visit one of the most beautiful cities in the world and still come home with enough complaints to fill a morning show? Oui.
An Amber Alert that woke up half the city before taking a bizarre turn, plus Scott’s live music adventure at Copper Fire, where the performance went great once the minor technical issue of the speakers actually producing sound was finally addressed. We also learn that Rizzuto is approaching the end of age 47, supposedly the happiest year of his life. Great news to discover right before it expires.
Then comes important local Italian-American business: the world’s oldest ravioli maker is opening its first U.S. manufacturing facility in St. Charles. Naturally, Rizzuto immediately begins wondering why his invitation to the ribbon cutting hasn’t arrived. If there’s a giant ravioli involved and this man isn’t allowed to emerge from it holding an oversized pizza cutter, then frankly, what are we even doing here?
There are positives. The Paris Catacombs were incredible, featuring the bones of millions of people and the mildly unsettling realization that apparently enough tourists try to steal human remains that bags need to be checked on the way out. A nighttime river cruise delivered gorgeous views of the Eiffel Tower. There were baguettes. There was an absolutely elite steak sandwich. And yes, Paris itself occasionally managed to impress our extremely difficult international correspondent.
One cab driver takes the scenic interpretation of “wrong direction,” keeps the meter running, and eventually gets into a heated French argument with Rizz.
Travel chaos continues with a kid refusing to buckle a seatbelt and helping get an entire flight canceled overnight. From there, we examine airport security and the long-running liquid restrictions that have forced generations of travelers to choose between personal hygiene and bringing enough shampoo to survive Tuesday.
A golfer allegedly fakes a hole-in-one for thousands of dollars using a sick-grandma phone call as cover, and somehow that’s only the beginning of today’s nonsense.
Hill’s Brazilian jiu-jitsu confidence gets the Rizz Show treatment as the guys debate martial arts, celebrity bravado, Michael Cera’s hypothetical fighting abilities and why the people who could actually fold you into a carry-on bag are usually the least interested in telling everybody about it.
We also celebrate Missouri’s birthday with a rundown of inventions, foods and famous names tied to the Show-Me State. Toasted ravioli? Obviously. Gooey butter cake? Put some respect on it. The microchip? Apparently Missouri has been doing a little more than deep-frying carbohydrates this whole time.
Crap on Celebrities arrives with another truckload of entertainment gossip and pop culture commentary. Mark Zuckerberg’s massive yacht gets dragged into controversy after a stranded boat reportedly needed help in Alaska. Britney Spears warns fans about a bad Botox experience. The crew gets into movie box-office numbers, Spider-Man, Super Troopers, Bugonia, Weapons and The Dink, because apparently nobody can simply say “I liked the movie” without turning it into a federal hearing.
There’s also Harry Potter actress Jessie Cave discussing the surprising money she’s making on OnlyFans without nudity, Blink-182 heading back into the studio, Five Nights at Freddy’s becoming an actual immersive restaurant experience, and a debate over the greatest new wave singers that quickly proves nobody is completely sure where “new wave” begins or ends.
A study suggesting people are speaking 30% fewer words per day than they did 20 years ago. Texting, remote work, apps, online ordering, and our collective desire to avoid asking strangers how their day is going may be slowly murdering small talk. Naturally, this turns into a debate over whether small talk is an important social skill or just an obstacle standing between you and the salad you ordered downstairs.
Moon admits that talking to strangers has basically become his personal training regimen, Rafe defends the lost art of actually communicating with another human being, Scott brings the small-town friendliness, and Rizz is patiently waiting for telepathy so he can stop participating altogether.
First up: is having roommates a romantic deal breaker? A dating trend suggests some singles see living alone as proof that you've got your life together financially and personally. That raises the obvious question: do men and women judge this the same way? Rafe has some thoughts, including exactly how much questionable housekeeping a man might overlook when he finds someone attractive. We regret to inform you the answer is: quite a bit.
A 29-year-old comedian and influencer went viral after canceling a first date with a 38-year-old finance guy because his restaurant selection was too casual. Her argument? The restaurant a potential partner chooses says something about compatibility, lifestyle, and effort. The show's counterargument quickly becomes slightly less scientific: what exactly qualifies someone as “Chili's material”?

Apparently, humans are talking less, dating costs roughly the GDP of a small island nation, and picking the wrong restaurant might get you rejected before you even order an appetizer. Welcome to another funny podcast episode of The Rizzuto Show, where modern romance, social skills, and basic human interaction are put under the microscope by several men who may or may not be qualified to operate said microscope.
The crew kicks things off with a study suggesting people are speaking 30% fewer words per day than they did 20 years ago. Texting, remote work, apps, online ordering, and our collective desire to avoid asking strangers how their day is going may be slowly murdering small talk. Naturally, this turns into a debate over whether small talk is an important social skill or just an obstacle standing between you and the salad you ordered downstairs.
Moon admits that talking to strangers has basically become his personal training regimen, Rafe defends the lost art of actually communicating with another human being, Scott brings the small-town friendliness, and Rizz is patiently waiting for telepathy so he can stop participating altogether.
Then things somehow get philosophical. Are social media platforms actually “social” anymore? Did we replace friends with followers? Are we eventually getting an app where everyone just grunts at each other? Honestly, don't rule it out.
From there, the funny podcast chaos heads directly into dating.
First up: is having roommates a romantic deal breaker? A dating trend suggests some singles see living alone as proof that you've got your life together financially and personally. That raises the obvious question: do men and women judge this the same way? Rafe has some thoughts, including exactly how much questionable housekeeping a man might overlook when he finds someone attractive. We regret to inform you the answer is: quite a bit.
Money isn't helping matters either. A survey says 25% of Americans believe their financial situation has prevented them from finding true love, while the conversation introduces an estimated six-figure salary tied to feeling financially ready for romance. Apparently Cupid has updated his terms of service and now requires proof of income.
Finally, we arrive at the Great Restaurant Debate.
A 29-year-old comedian and influencer went viral after canceling a first date with a 38-year-old finance guy because his restaurant selection was too casual. Her argument? The restaurant a potential partner chooses says something about compatibility, lifestyle, and effort. The show's counterargument quickly becomes slightly less scientific: what exactly qualifies someone as “Chili's material”?
Moon defends the right to have whatever ridiculous dating standards you want. Rizz defends his right to judge those ridiculous standards. Rafe points out that what many guys consider an elaborate special occasion might basically be what women already organize with their friends on a random Sunday.
Somehow everybody has a point, which is deeply inconvenient.
So what's the real dating red flag: roommates, bad texting, cheap restaurants, unrealistic expectations, or being incapable of carrying on a five-minute phone conversation? We don't solve any of those problems, obviously. But this funny podcast does provide plenty of unsolicited analysis from Rizz, Moon Valjean, King Scott, and Rafe Williams.
Come for the death of small talk. Stay for the dating economics. Leave questioning whether you're fancy-restaurant material or destined for the 2-for-$20 forever.

A golfer allegedly fakes a hole-in-one for thousands of dollars using a sick-grandma phone call as cover, and somehow that’s only the beginning of today’s nonsense.
The Rizzuto Show is back with another funny podcast packed with St. Louis chaos, celebrity gossip, questionable decisions, movie arguments, music trivia, and the sort of stories that make you wonder how we’ve managed to keep microphones this long.
The main event comes straight out of the St. Louis area, where a member golf tournament at WingHaven Country Club reportedly turned into an elaborate hole-in-one caper. According to the story, a golfer told his group that his grandma was in the hospital and he might need to step away for an important phone call. Totally understandable. Very wholesome. Absolutely nothing suspicious happening here.
Then the call arrives near a par-three hole.
He heads up alone, supposedly hits his tee shot while nobody is watching, and when everyone reaches the green… would you look at that? His ball is IN THE HOLE.
A hole-in-one! What a miracle! Grandma must be so proud!
There’s just one tiny problem: cameras.
The crew digs into the allegations that surveillance footage caught the golfer visiting the hole before the round, creating a divot and putting a ball in the cup. Suddenly, Grandma’s hospital call becomes one of the most aggressively suspicious excuses in golf history. With reports that the hole-in-one pot may have been around $9,000, the guys debate the most important question: how much money does it take before you’re willing to risk becoming the guy who allegedly invented a medical emergency for Grandma to cheat at golf?
From there, this funny podcast moves naturally into the next logical subject: whether Jonah Hill could annihilate everyone in a fight.
Hill’s Brazilian jiu-jitsu confidence gets the Rizz Show treatment as the guys debate martial arts, celebrity bravado, Michael Cera’s hypothetical fighting abilities and why the people who could actually fold you into a carry-on bag are usually the least interested in telling everybody about it.
We also celebrate Missouri’s birthday with a rundown of inventions, foods and famous names tied to the Show-Me State. Toasted ravioli? Obviously. Gooey butter cake? Put some respect on it. The microchip? Apparently Missouri has been doing a little more than deep-frying carbohydrates this whole time.
Then Crap on Celebrities arrives with another truckload of entertainment gossip and pop culture commentary. Mark Zuckerberg’s massive yacht gets dragged into controversy after a stranded boat reportedly needed help in Alaska. Britney Spears warns fans about a bad Botox experience. The crew gets into movie box-office numbers, Spider-Man, Super Troopers, Bugonia, Weapons and The Dink, because apparently nobody can simply say “I liked the movie” without turning it into a federal hearing.
There’s also Harry Potter actress Jessie Cave discussing the surprising money she’s making on OnlyFans without nudity, Blink-182 heading back into the studio, Five Nights at Freddy’s becoming an actual immersive restaurant experience, and a debate over the greatest new wave singers that quickly proves nobody is completely sure where “new wave” begins or ends.
Add in Bob Marley’s ridiculous Billboard longevity, the biggest-selling albums of all time, celebrity birthdays and the usual collection of side quests, arguments and unnecessary observations, and you’ve got another daily dose of The Rizzuto Show.
It’s celebrity news, weird news, St. Louis stories and sarcastic humor crammed into one comedy podcast — because apparently discussing an alleged fake hole-in-one for this long is considered a profession.

Rizzuto is back from France, which means it’s finally time to answer the question nobody asked: Can one man visit one of the most beautiful cities in the world and still come home with enough complaints to fill a morning show? Oui.
Episode 114 begins back home in St. Louis with an Amber Alert that woke up half the city before taking a bizarre turn, plus Scott’s live music adventure at Copper Fire, where the performance went great once the minor technical issue of the speakers actually producing sound was finally addressed. We also learn that Rizzuto is approaching the end of age 47, supposedly the happiest year of his life. Great news to discover right before it expires.
Then comes important local Italian-American business: the world’s oldest ravioli maker is opening its first U.S. manufacturing facility in St. Charles. Naturally, Rizzuto immediately begins wondering why his invitation to the ribbon cutting hasn’t arrived. If there’s a giant ravioli involved and this man isn’t allowed to emerge from it holding an oversized pizza cutter, then frankly, what are we even doing here?
But the main event is Rizzuto’s triumphant return from Paris.
He kept notes.
A lot of notes.
There are positives. The Paris Catacombs were incredible, featuring the bones of millions of people and the mildly unsettling realization that apparently enough tourists try to steal human remains that bags need to be checked on the way out. A nighttime river cruise delivered gorgeous views of the Eiffel Tower. There were baguettes. There was an absolutely elite steak sandwich. And yes, Paris itself occasionally managed to impress our extremely difficult international correspondent.
Unfortunately for France, this is a comedy podcast, so we also need to discuss the complaints.
Why is getting cold water apparently an international negotiation? Where is the ice? Why won’t restaurants bring the check? Why does everything close when Rizzuto needs something? Is air conditioning merely a rumor Europeans started to make Americans feel comfortable booking flights? Is the Mona Lisa overrated? Is the Eiffel Tower overrated? Is the food overrated? And why did an Airbnb leave the family sweating in a hallway for 45 minutes while they tried to figure out how to get inside?
Then there’s transportation.
One cab driver allegedly takes the scenic interpretation of “wrong direction,” keeps the meter running, and eventually gets into a heated French argument with Rizzuto. Rizzuto attempts to hold firm on the fare and ultimately negotiates himself a breathtaking discount of roughly fifteen bucks. International diplomacy is alive and well.
The crew eventually tallies Rizzuto’s Paris complaints, because apparently his vacation needed independent auditing.
Travel chaos continues with a kid refusing to buckle a seatbelt and helping get an entire flight canceled overnight. From there, we examine airport security and the long-running liquid restrictions that have forced generations of travelers to choose between personal hygiene and bringing enough shampoo to survive Tuesday.
Somehow this becomes a discussion involving Die Hard with a Vengeance, Jeremy Irons, TSA logic, confiscated hairspray and the exact amount of liquid apparently required before civilization collapses.
And after all the monuments, bones, baguettes, questionable air conditioning, transportation drama and French customer service, Rizzuto finally lands back in St. Louis and realizes something important:
He loves it here.
Nothing makes home look better than an international vacation and a lukewarm glass of water.
It’s travel stories, St. Louis nonsense, weird news, daily humor and several completely unnecessary arguments packed into another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show.
Come for the Paris vacation recap. Stay for the debate over whether holding a perfect French sandwich like a newborn baby is an acceptable response to lunch.
This comedy podcast may not improve international relations, but at least we have ice.

Lern prepares for a family getaway to Table Rock Lake that quickly turns into a debate over golf carts, caves, spas, and whether anyone actually wants to leave the house. The gang dives into the strange pressure of family vacations, why everyone wakes up before sunrise, and whether it's okay to disappear for a solo adventure just to save your sanity.
Meanwhile, Rafe makes an emotional confession about falling back in love with cheese after attempting a dairy-free experiment, leading to one of the funniest conversations about comfort food you'll hear all week. The crew also argues over the greatest fast-food burgers in America, gives Dairy Queen's food menu the respect it deserves, and somehow ends up discussing Sonic-related trauma that's apparently lasted decades.
Moon continues his streak of bringing the internet's strangest lists, including the world's best food cities, the worst drivers in America, the most romantic cities, and a collection of Victorian slang words that quickly derail into pure nonsense. Somehow "Cupid's kettle drums" becomes a legitimate on-air discussion.
There's plenty of classic Rizz Show chemistry throughout as the crew bounces from travel stories to family drama, awkward Airbnb experiences, summer spending habits, childhood freedom, and everything in between. It's exactly the kind of organized chaos listeners expect from a daily comedy show that never stays on one topic for very long.
Guns N' Roses recording new music, Green Day launching a 24/7 YouTube channel, Perez Hilton's heartbreaking situation, a Nicolas Cage John to play King Scott in a new movie, Robert Pattinson becoming Chris Hansen, and perhaps the strangest movie trailer any of us have ever seen... Wicker.
Meanwhile, Slash says Guns N' Roses are finally writing new music again, and for longtime fans that's almost as unbelievable as hearing Axl and Slash are actually getting along. The gang dives into what that reunion means, why Chinese Democracy still feels like it took several presidential administrations to arrive, and whether this album might finally become reality.
Music nerds also get excited over Green Day launching a nonstop streaming channel full of concerts, music videos, and rare footage, sparking an entire conversation about why every legendary band should basically become their own MTV.
On the celebrity side of the world, things take a much more serious turn as the crew discusses Perez Hilton's recent hospitalization and how public perception changes when someone who built a career covering celebrity meltdowns experiences one of his own. It's thoughtful, honest, and still unmistakably The Rizzuto Show.
Movie fans get plenty to chew on with Super Troopers 3, Grown Ups 3, Madden starring Nicolas Cage, Jurassic production drama, and one of the creepiest trailers of the year featuring Robert Pattinson transforming into Chris Hansen. Somehow that's still only the second weirdest trailer discussed.
Then, because no Friday is complete without an argument nobody asked for, the crew debates the greatest Disney animated films ever made. Beauty and the Beast? Lion King? Toy Story? Aladdin getting snubbed? Feel free to yell at your speakers along with everyone else.
Moon breaks down some of the biggest beer myths you've probably believed your entire life. Does beer really cause a beer belly? Are dark beers actually stronger? Is draft beer secretly responsible for your hangover? The gang debates science versus "trust me, bro" logic before somehow ending up discussing functional beers loaded with vitamins, probiotics, adaptogens, and enough wellness buzzwords to confuse your local brewery.
Rafe returns with another legendary In Memoriam segment featuring everything the show managed to completely derail throughout the week. We revisit the listener email that somehow sparked the now-infamous horny pilgrim ghost conversation, proving once again that The Rizzuto Show audience has a very specific line between "too weird" and "perfectly acceptable."
The crew also pays tribute to thousands of dollars worth of stolen Little Debbie snack cakes, because apparently organized crime has moved on from cash and drugs to Cosmic Brownies and Oatmeal Creme Pies.
You'll also hear discussions about bizarre new baby names like Chaos, Rooster and Gatorade, King Scott embracing both silk bonnets and fixing appliances, Jimmy Buffett versus Warren Buffett confusion, Taco Bell settlement drama, dangerous Q-tip habits that may or may not unlock another dimension, and Moon's passionate defense of Guinness Zero.
As always, Rafe wraps things up with his hilarious rapid-fire memorials before ending on heartfelt tributes to several notable figures who passed away this week, balancing absurd comedy with genuine respect in a way only this crew can.
