The Rizzuto Show | Daily Comedy Podcast

Alleged gravity event and quickly asking the much more important question: where is the gravity cult? Because if the internet promises a supernatural event, somebody somewhere has probably already purchased matching tracksuits and appointed himself Supreme Gravity Commander. Thus, the Gravitonians are born, Idaho and Arkansas get dragged into the investigation, and a completely reasonable conversation becomes exactly the kind of funny podcast chaos you’d expect from The Rizzuto Show.
The conversation tumbles into Heaven’s Gate, Jonestown, Marshall Applewhite, Nike Decades, purple shrouds, Flavor Aid getting absolutely robbed of its historical brand recognition, and the crew trying to remember which unsettling cult detail belongs to which unsettling cult. This is less of a history lesson and more four people opening the same mental junk drawer at once. Eventually the crew becomes especially fascinated by Heaven’s Gate’s sneaker selection, because apparently even impending extraterrestrial departure requires a respectable shoe game.
Then somebody wisely decides it’s time to stop talking about cults and play trivia.
This turns out to be only marginally safer.
The Rizz Quiz returns with contestants getting 45 seconds to answer as many questions as possible—but one wrong answer immediately ends the run. No passing. No mercy. No blaming the educational system afterward. Questions cover everything from Roman numerals and the Grand Canyon to Nutella, Winnie the Pooh, human anatomy, Peter Pan, baseball, Garfield and the horrifying mathematics of nickels.
Chris starts things off before the Colorado River causes problems. Diego gets ambushed by the number of years in a century. Brad suddenly turns into the final boss with a seven-answer run featuring hazelnuts, Rhode Island, Africa, Piglet, club sandwiches and Canada. Jared tries to chase him down until the “white part of an egg” becomes an intellectual brick wall.
Then Round Two arrives.
Brando tears through Jefferson City, football fields, Cookie Monster and Dr Pepper before the human skeleton ruins his streak. Cameron learns that lions have a pride, not a pack. Aaron encounters a fairy named “Tinder Bell,” which frankly deserves its own dating app. Finally, Brian gets Garfield’s least-favorite day correct before informing all of St. Louis that there are 50 nickels in a dollar.

The Rizzuto Show has been waiting since January for the moment humanity would supposedly lose gravity for eight glorious seconds, and now the big day has arrived. Do we float? Do we fly? Do we immediately jump out a window based on something we heard on the internet? Thankfully, only one of those ideas gets discussed with any enthusiasm.
Episode 26 kicks off with the crew preparing for the alleged gravity event and quickly asking the much more important question: where is the gravity cult? Because if the internet promises a supernatural event, somebody somewhere has probably already purchased matching tracksuits and appointed himself Supreme Gravity Commander. Thus, the Gravitonians are born, Idaho and Arkansas get dragged into the investigation, and a completely reasonable conversation becomes exactly the kind of funny podcast chaos you’d expect from The Rizzuto Show.
From there, somehow, things get even stranger.
The conversation tumbles into Heaven’s Gate, Jonestown, Marshall Applewhite, Nike Decades, purple shrouds, Flavor Aid getting absolutely robbed of its historical brand recognition, and the crew trying to remember which unsettling cult detail belongs to which unsettling cult. This is less of a history lesson and more four people opening the same mental junk drawer at once. Eventually the crew becomes especially fascinated by Heaven’s Gate’s sneaker selection, because apparently even impending extraterrestrial departure requires a respectable shoe game.

There are 20.
We checked.
Probably twice after this episode.
It’s another funny podcast packed with daily humor, sarcastic commentary, weird stories, St. Louis radio chaos and the beautiful sound of confident people discovering they are confidently incorrect. If you enjoy comedy podcasts where celebrity gossip and weird news can suddenly give way to a serious debate over cult sneakers and elementary-school trivia, welcome home. Expectations were already low, and somehow we found a basement.
Come for the eight seconds without gravity. Stay for the contestants losing their grip on arithmetic.
This funny podcast episode proves once again that The Rizzuto Show can turn a ridiculous internet claim, an uncomfortable history detour and a handful of trivia questions into a complete collapse of civilized morning radio.

Welcome to another funny podcast episode of The Rizzuto Show, where technology is terrifying, nostalgia is apparently worth millions, and the financial advice remains extremely simple: go back to 1988 and tell your parents to buy two copies of everything.
We kick things off with Spotify’s new push to identify AI-generated music and AI personas, which immediately creates a problem nobody on the show particularly enjoys: some of this fake music is annoyingly good. The crew gets into AI covers, suspiciously talented digital musicians, the increasingly exhausting game of asking “is this real?” every time something shows up online, and why artificial intelligence apparently figured out how to make a blues record before most of us figured out what we’re doing with our lives.
Then it’s time for some serious Nintendo nostalgia. A stash of 100 unopened Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt cartridges has surfaced, with experts suggesting the collection could potentially bring enormous money at auction. That sends everybody spiraling back to childhood: Nintendo, Atari, Sega Genesis, Game Gear, coordinating Christmas presents with friends, blowing into cartridges like tiny electronics technicians, and the devastating realization that every toy we destroyed was apparently supposed to be our retirement portfolio.
Naturally, nobody told us.
From there, Crap on Celebrities brings another avalanche of entertainment gossip and pop culture commentary. 311 is headed back to St. Louis, Morrissey is canceling shows again, and Travis Barker has some very specific advice for son Landon Barker about appearing on The Voice. That turns into a perfectly reasonable discussion about artistic credibility, reality television, nepotism, and whether marrying into the Kardashian universe technically makes everybody a contestant.
Eddie Vedder reveals the Martin Short joke that helped him quit smoking, Death Cab for Cutie hits Tiny Desk, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is exploring even more music because apparently movies, wrestling, tequila, skincare and being one of the most recognizable humans alive were not enough extracurricular activities.
Celebrity news keeps rolling with Taylor Swift’s Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame honor, pet drama, horror-movie controversy, Jenna Ortega discussion, and one of Hollywood’s greatest alternate-universe casting decisions: Kevin Costner passing on The Shawshank Redemption to make Waterworld. Somewhere, a fish-man with gills just whispered, “worth it.”
The crew debates whether Tom Hanks or Tom Cruise could have worked as Andy Dufresne, revisits Waterworld, celebrates some birthdays, and eventually arrives at the important local journalism this community deserves: Steve Ewing’s birthday means a special deal at Steve’s Hot Dogs for people named Steve, Stephen or Stephanie. Stefans, apparently, can kick rocks.
Then Rafe unveils the Riz Quiz: rapid-fire questions, 45 seconds on the clock, one wrong answer and you’re done. Nothing exposes the human brain quite like asking it to recall basic information while everybody on a morning radio show waits for it to fail.
It’s AI anxiety, retro gaming, celebrity fails, St. Louis nonsense, music news, movie arguments and hot-dog-based discrimination packed into one funny podcast. Basically, another completely normal morning with Rizz and the gang.
Listen to the full funny podcast episode and find out why the future may belong to artificial intelligence, but the real winners are apparently the people who refused to open their Nintendo games.

St. Louis woke up to a hazardous-material fire, a mysterious chemical cloud drifting through the Metro East, and instructions to shelter in place during weather hot enough to turn your house into a Crock-Pot. Naturally, The Rizzuto Show responds exactly like any responsible funny podcast would: by immediately wondering what happens when the chemical cloud meets rain, debating whether air conditioning is trying to kill us, and preparing to attend an afternoon Cardinals game in a heat index hovering somewhere around “surface of the sun.”
Great planning, everybody.
The crew is headed to the baseball game, which means it’s time to discuss shorts, questionable Cardinals outfits, polyester in extreme humidity, and several anatomical consequences of excessive heat that probably weren’t included in the National Weather Service advisory. Moon offers “cool moss” as a survival mantra, Rafe considers wearing an outfit that could become a public-decency incident in the right breeze, and Rizzuto realizes that choosing an August day game may have been a tactical error.
But who cares about heat when GRAVITY ITSELF IS ABOUT TO DISAPPEAR?
Yes, the calendar reminder has finally arrived. According to an internet prophecy the show has been lovingly babysitting for months, gravity is supposed to vanish at 8:33 a.m. for several seconds. So the gang does what this funny podcast does best: takes something completely ridiculous and gives it significantly more analysis than it deserves. Do we float? Should everyone jump? What happens when gravity comes back? Should Lern abandon the show to protect her cats? And most importantly, why did Rizzuto bring rope?
Throw in an eclipse, a meteor shower, Lionsgate manifestation talk and a massive Powerball jackpot, and this is shaping up to be a perfectly normal Wednesday.
Then we arrive at the Great Hole-in-One Heist.
The crew dives into the viral St. Louis-area golf scandal involving a player who admitted to fabricating a hole-in-one during a tournament with thousands of dollars at stake. There’s security footage, a suspicious trip ahead of the group, a ball mysteriously sitting in the cup and an apology that helped turn a local golf disaster into national entertainment. But while everyone else is debating golf ethics, The Rizzuto Show focuses on the question nobody else apparently had the courage to ask:
IS GRANDMA OKAY?!
From there, the crew debates cheating, hole-in-one etiquette, whether you’d expose your spouse for pulling the same stunt, and whether $9,000 is enough money to permanently become “the golf liar” at every family gathering.
And because apparently we’re conducting an ethics seminar now, the conversation moves from golf cheating to cashier mistakes. If a store forgets to charge you for something, do you go back? Is keeping it stealing? Is karma waiting around the corner with a bus? Suddenly our funny podcast has become a philosophy class taught by people preparing to sit outside at a baseball stadium during a heat advisory.
Chemical clouds. Gravity conspiracies. Lottery dreams. Golf fraud. Accidental shoplifting. Cardinals baseball.
Another completely reasonable morning with The Rizzuto Show.

Rizz shows up sporting a mysterious bandage under his eye, so naturally Lern, Moon and Rafe respond with compassion, maturity and absolutely none of the above. After theories involving shaving accidents, discount Nelly cosplay and possible violence, Rizz reveals what actually happened: he went to the dermatologist expecting to have a skin tag removed. Instead, the doctor took one look under magnification, decided it needed a closer look, removed it and sent it off for a biopsy.
So obviously the show handles this delicate situation with dignity.
Just kidding. Within minutes we're discussing solidarity Band-Aids, ribbons, Aquaphor, garlic carcinoma and whether Rizz can technically start calling himself a survivor. Nothing brings friends together quite like an unexpected medical procedure and the immediate weaponization of it for content.
King Scott sends us into CPR, new-parent panic and the revelation that properly installing a child car seat apparently requires more training than anyone in the room expected. A firefighter calls in, King Scott gets some actual useful information, and Rizz remembers the time his son started choking on bacon — prompting Dad Instinct Rizz to spring into action before apparently returning to his omelet like he'd just completed a minor household chore.
Lern has also researched emergency procedures for cats, because of course she has.
Then Lern returns from Table Rock Lake and the crew settles an important semantic argument: was this a “vacation” or merely a “trip”? Her family getaway included Table Rock, Top of the Rock, an expensive golf-cart cave tour, fake rocks, Branson energy, a canned cave cocktail and enough nickel-and-diming to make you wonder if the scenery charges a convenience fee.
The review? Roughly three out of five stars. Nature: beautiful. Family bonding: great. Branson sneaking into the cave like it owns the place: inevitable.
That leads perfectly into “popcorn brain,” the term for what happens when our attention starts bouncing between notifications, videos, headlines and entertainment like somebody dumped a bucket of mental popcorn into our skulls. Rizz has watched it happen with his kids, Rafe admits it happens to him during the show, and suddenly everybody realizes this isn't just a teenager problem. We're all cooked.
Rafe also celebrates his 3,000th comedy set, which is legitimately impressive and therefore cannot be discussed for long without everyone confusing Mr. 3000 with Mr. Baseball. Congratulations, Rafe. Three thousand performances and you're still voluntarily sitting in this studio. Incredible commitment. Questionable judgment.
A St. Louis story that's bizarre for all the wrong reasons: a regional Amber Alert, a supposedly stolen Dodge Charger and a missing child who investigators ultimately determined had never been inside the vehicle. The crew gets into the false report, the massive police response it triggered and the uncomfortable fact that this wasn't the first high-profile false child-abduction report the area has dealt with recently.
You'd think we'd stay serious after that. You must be new here.
Moon finally saw The Odyssey in IMAX, which means it's time for a completely reasonable film review that immediately becomes a referendum on whether human beings still know how to behave inside a movie theater. Talking, climbing over people, premium ticket prices and seats close enough to the screen to personally inspect Tom Holland's pores—moviegoing truly is magical.
Then comes an argument guaranteed to make somebody angrily talk to their dashboard: which bands followed a killer debut album with a disappointing sophomore effort? Guns N' Roses, Garbage, Weezer, Bush, Hootie and the Blowfish, Boston, The Darkness, The Strokes, Meat Loaf and Vanilla Ice all enter the conversation, and not everybody leaves with their dignity. Moon also brings an actual musician's perspective to why that second album can be such a nightmare when your first record becomes a hit. Welcome to our funny podcast, where suddenly we're discussing artistic pressure like responsible adults before immediately ruining it.
Crap on Celebrities arrives carrying the usual bag of entertainment nonsense. Geddy Lee has a strange encounter with a bird that raises questions about Neil Peart and spiritual visits. Josh Homme reportedly gets expensive while looking irritatingly cool doing it. The crew digs into the renewed conversation surrounding Hilary Duff's teenage relationship with Joel Madden, along with other music and celebrity stories.
Then things somehow expand to burglary, stolen treasure and grudges.
There's celebrity break-in news, plus Rizz's firsthand visit to the Louvre room connected to an enormous jewel heist—which naturally leads to the discovery that museum security apparently has some surprisingly Walgreens-adjacent rules about chasing people. The show also gets into Jon Hamm, Matthew Lillard facing a fan who held onto a grievance for years, Hollywood's biggest directors and a debate over the greatest movie sequels ever made. Terminator 2, Aliens, The Empire Strikes Back, The Dark Knight, The Godfather Part II and even Paddington 2 get dragged into the arena because this funny podcast respects cinema almost as much as it respects wasting everyone's time.
And then suburbia gets interesting.
Emily and Nathan from Double Lives of Suburban Wives join The Rizzuto Show to talk about the St. Louis-based reality series centered on women balancing suburban family life with major success creating digital adult content. It's the kind of premise that makes you realize the person standing next to you at soccer practice may have a considerably more interesting LinkedIn than you do.
They were looking for an extra $150–$300 a month for groceries… and somehow that turned into hundreds of thousands of dollars, reality TV, and a conversation about monster toys before most people finished their morning coffee.
Emily and Nathan from TLC’s Double Lives of Suburban Wives join The Rizzuto Show, and we have approximately 47 questions — several of which probably should not be asked before lunch.
Emily’s story starts in a place a lot of families know all too well: trying to make the bills work. She and Nathan were working opposite shifts to avoid daycare costs, running a woodworking business, and looking for a way to bring in an extra $150–$300 a month.
Nothing crazy. Just grocery money.
Then Nathan floated the idea of Emily making adult content.
Fast-forward four years, and “grocery money” has become a full-blown business spread across multiple platforms. Emily explains how she started cautiously, why showing a real body with stretch marks and cellulite mattered to her, and how one of her earliest subscribers turned out to be what the industry calls a “whale.”
Emily and Nathan also explain why they decided to put their lives on TLC’s Double Lives of Suburban Wives, what it’s like having cameras follow them around the St. Louis area, and why they haven’t experienced the massive hometown backlash some people might expect.
The conversation gets more serious as Emily discusses body positivity, the stigma surrounding mothers who create adult content, and how she and Nathan have handled conversations about their work with their family. Their position is pretty simple: they’re happy, safe, providing for their family, and not particularly interested in living according to somebody else’s expectations.
Which is probably healthier than reading the comments section. Nobody has ever emerged from there improved.
Then we get into the reality-TV side of things.
Emily admits the women featured on Double Lives of Suburban Wives aren’t necessarily one giant happy friend group. Different personalities, different levels of success, different struggles and — because television producers enjoy remaining employed — plenty of drama.
Is some of it ego-driven? Is there competition? What happens when someone enters an already selective group? And could a second season crank things up even further?
Emily gives us a glimpse without spoiling the show, while Nathan delivers perhaps the most efficient response to critics imaginable: if people don’t approve of the business, maybe they should tell their husbands to stop subscribing.
The conversation also covers how creating content changed Emily and Nathan’s relationship, whether their views on monogamy have evolved, the truly astonishing variety of things people will pay to see online, and whether Rafe or Lern could theoretically find their own bizarre niche.
From woodworking and reptile shows to reality television, body positivity, internet entrepreneurship, suburban gossip and some VERY specific customer requests, this funny podcast is essentially the American dream after somebody accidentally left the parental controls off.
And underneath all the jokes is a surprisingly interesting conversation about money, marriage, judgment, family and what “normal” actually looks like when your side hustle becomes more successful than anybody expected.
