The Rizzuto Show | Daily Comedy Podcast

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.

How exactly are adults supposed to greet each other anymore? The Rizzuto Show dives into the surprisingly complicated world of handshakes, hugs, waves, kisses on the cheek and the absolutely unhinged 1% of people who apparently greet somebody new with a kiss directly on the lips.
The crew breaks down their personal greeting rules, including Moon’s policy of always standing up for a handshake, when it’s acceptable to hug somebody you’re meeting for the first time and why you should probably avoid embracing the HR rep during a job interview. Lern also reveals there are people in her life who greet both her AND her husband with a kiss on the lips, which sends this comedy show into exactly the mature discussion you’d expect.
Then it’s time for Simpleton Trivia — the game designed to prove there’s no such thing as a simple question once a 45-second timer starts ticking.
Listeners can either take on ten supposedly easy questions themselves for two pairs of tickets or hand the pressure over to Moon, Lern or King Scott and bet on whether they’ll survive. With Metallica, Breaking Benjamin, Turnstile and Rafe Williams tickets on the line, suddenly remembering basic multiplication becomes a life-or-death situation.
And the math absolutely destroys everybody.
One contestant makes it all the way to the final question before running out of time on 8×7. Moon cruises through ocean tides, planets, penguins and gravity before 9×6 sends his brain directly into the ditch. Another caller dominates until 12×8 arrives. King Scott makes it to question ten before confidently deciding 63 divided by 7 is seven.
The pressure is undefeated.
Lern finally gets her shot after a caller trusts her with his Metallica dreams, only for 75 minus 30 to briefly become 44 before she corrects herself to 45 — approximately one second too late. She demands another round for redemption and immediately answers 13×2 with 36.
At that point, this comedy show might as well apologize to every elementary-school teacher in St. Louis.
There are also spectacular non-math failures, including one contestant being asked which Toy Story cowboy says “there’s a snake in my boot” and confidently answering Buzz Lightyear. Close, if by close you mean an entirely different character whose whole thing is being a spaceman.
By the end, only one winner emerges, former teachers are catching strays and everyone has learned a valuable lesson: you can know the answer your entire life, but the second someone starts a timer and offers you Metallica tickets, 9×6 becomes advanced calculus.
Awkward hugs, lip kisses, failed multiplication and Simpleton Trivia humiliating everyone equally — another highly educational comedy show from The Rizzuto Show.

The studio cameras are down, somebody needs to get on the roof with some tinfoil, and The Rizzuto Show is temporarily experiencing the ancient broadcasting tradition known as “radio.” Honestly, everybody seems a little too happy about it. While the greatest technical minds in the building allegedly work on the problem, the crew previews Tommy Davidson’s return and somehow ends up comparing impeccably dressed comedy guests to the occasional comedian who arrives smelling like they lost a fight with a shower.
Then we celebrate September 24 by traveling back to one of the greatest stretches in music history. September 24, 1991 gave us Nirvana’s Nevermind, Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Blood Sugar Sex Magik, Soundgarden’s Badmotorfinger and A Tribe Called Quest’s The Low End Theory. Add Pearl Jam, Metallica, U2, Cypress Hill and everything else happening around 1991, and the crew realizes an entire generation basically had its musical operating system installed in the span of a few months.
From there, this funny podcast heads directly into Crap on Celebrities, where Madonna leads the MTV VMA nominations and Moon remembers something very important: she technically owes him dinner. Back when Moon’s band signed with Maverick, they were allegedly promised a Madonna meeting when the record went gold. They went gold twice. No dinner. Rizz sweetens the deal by offering Moon $500 if he ever produces photographic evidence of Madonna paying for that meal. The clock is ticking, Moon.
Taylor Swift has new music coming, the BTS Army is apparently battling Woody, and Rush is helping fund a Neil Peart memorial featuring larger-than-life bronze statues. Naturally, this inspires Rizz to request the only artistic tribute worthy of his legacy: a giant butter sculpture. Preferably climate controlled. Possibly edible.
Then Benny Blanco enters the chat with a passionate argument that couples should normalize farting around each other. This launches an extremely mature discussion about gastrointestinal relationship etiquette, whether Selena Gomez participates, and exactly how much romance can survive after dinner. Lern admits there is strategy involved. Rizz maintains standards. Moon mostly seems fascinated by the entire situation. Somewhere, love wins. Unfortunately, it smells terrible.
The celebrity chaos keeps coming when U2 announces new music and Rizz immediately detects what he describes as an “air of arrogance,” leading Moon to accuse him of joining the fashionable Bono-hating bandwagon. Nothing says funny podcast quite like grown men debating whether one of the biggest rock bands in history is trying too hard while accidentally playing Benny Blanco audio instead of the new U2 song.
Things somehow get even more ’90s when Jonathan Taylor Thomas — yes, JTT himself — lands back in the headlines. According to the story discussed on the show, JTT was arrested after allegedly interfering with a traffic stop, repeatedly getting out of the vehicle and eventually kicking a deputy in the stomach. The kid from Home Improvement. Randy Taylor. Kicking a cop. Suddenly the crew realizes the ’90s aren’t just back; they’re apparently furious.
There’s also an extremely strange Elizabeth Holmes documentary from Nathan Fielder, movie recommendations for King Scott, a new documentary revisiting theories about whether O.J. Simpson had an accomplice, Jean Smart joining a sequel to The Family Stone, and original Charlie Bucket actor Peter Ostrum returning to the Wonka universe decades after making one movie and wisely becoming a veterinarian instead of spending his entire life dealing with Hollywood.
Plus, Dolly Parton family estate drama gets unpacked, celebrity birthdays arrive, and the crew prepares for a special podcast taping at Scott Air Force Base before Simpleton Trivia begins.
Broken cameras. Historic rock albums. Madonna owing Moon dinner. Celebrity fart philosophy. U2 arguments. JTT going rogue. O.J. theories refusing to die. Just another completely normal funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show.

Fall is officially here, so naturally The Rizzuto Show begins with “candlescaping” — the art of strategically filling your home with complementary candles, fragrances and enough open flames to make Moon deeply uncomfortable. Lern is ready for soup, Halloween decorations and a house that smells like books, while Rizz reveals his family was apparently ahead of the candle game with legendary corn cob candles. Finally, the family legacy gets the recognition it deserves.
Then this daily comedy discovers Gen Z would like millennials to stop ending texts with “LOL.” Apparently it can come across as passive-aggressive, dismissive or even hostile, which is unfortunate because the crew plans to pry LOL from its cold, dead hands. Things only get worse when Rizz introduces the alleged replacements, including “laughing in my head,” “laughing by obligation,” “laughing so I don’t cry” and the painfully relatable “hanging by a thread.”
Speaking of hanging by a thread, why does life suddenly feel like it’s moving at warp speed? The crew gets into research about why childhood summers felt endless while adulthood disappears in approximately seven business minutes. The discussion turns surprisingly nostalgic as everyone remembers childhood homes, smells, sunlight, routines and why trying new things might help life feel a little longer. Moon recommends creating new experiences. Rizz suggests robbing a bank. Please follow Moon’s advice.
Then this daily comedy heads to court. A woman is seeking millions after suffering a serious injury when she fell from the stage during the St. Louis Blues’ 2019 Stanley Cup celebration, sparking a debate over event security versus personal responsibility. That leads Rizz to reveal why a planned Rizz Show ’90s cruise never happened: apparently corporate lawyers were slightly concerned somebody might get hammered and jump off the ship. Fun continues to be undefeated by liability insurance.
The legal debate continues with a lawsuit involving a woman whose ex allegedly used an AirTag hidden under her car to track her movements. Her iPhone was supposed to warn her about an unknown AirTag traveling with her, but she says she never received the alert. The crew debates where responsibility falls when technology designed to help find lost stuff gets used by terrible people.
And then we get to the flight.
A 25-year-old passenger says the man seated beside her began openly “Joeing” while staring at her during a flight. She reports it to the crew, but with no open seats available, she ends up standing in the aisle before eventually having to return to her assigned seat for landing. Lern shares her own experience encountering public Joeing, Moon tries to understand how nobody intervened, and the show reaches one unanimous conclusion: Joe at home, everybody.
Candles, LOL wars, childhood nostalgia, courtroom debates, creepy technology and the absolute worst possible airline seatmate — another perfectly relaxing daily comedy from The Rizzuto Show.
