What do a tortured football fan, a homemade sandwich board, and a lawsuit involving hand herpes have in common? Unfortunately, they're all part of our morning.
Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where Rizz, Moon Valjean, King Scott, Lern, and Rafe Williams somehow manage to make St. Louis news, sports arguments, and basic personal hygiene sound like emergencies requiring a legal department.
We kick things off with John Ulett's collection of life rules, including his deeply concerning approach to eating hot dogs. Apparently, the ends are off-limits. We're not sure that's wisdom, but it's definitely information we can't unlearn. Lern is preparing for a women's retreat in the woods, Rizz has a mysterious weekend trip he refuses to explain, and his in-laws provide the perfect excuse to avoid a three-mile hike with a CrossFit enthusiast wearing a weighted vest. Fitness is important. So is knowing when to stay home.
Then it's time for St. Louis news, where The Hill's expensive drone security system faces questions after a string of car break-ins. The crew immediately starts imagining a neighborhood-watch reality show starring the sort of guys who don't need drones to know who's parked on their block. Meanwhile, plans for a St. Louis police reality series get scrapped, and Arnold gets some genuinely good news: more hot salami is on the way with a new Gioia's Deli location. Finally, a local story with a happy ending. And lunch.
But the real public spectacle belongs to Moon, who is preparing to stand along Olive Boulevard wearing a sandwich board created by Lern as punishment for his football picks. Nothing says professional morning radio like sending a grown man to the roadside with a homemade sign while the rest of the crew encourages passing drivers to honk.
There's also celebrity excitement as comedian Nick Swardson is scheduled to visit the studio during GalaxyCon weekend. The gang revisits Grandma's Boy, Reno 911!, and the long list of comedians and cult-film favorites they'd love to get on the show. It's an impressive lineup of entertainment discussion for people who were just debating whether a tuxedo vest counts as workout equipment.
And because this is The Rizzuto Show, the conversation somehow ends up at nail salons, pedicures, and a lawsuit alleging that a manicure caused a herpes infection. Rizz shares his first pedicure experience, everyone discusses the horrifying condition of their feet, and suddenly the phrase “hand herpes” becomes something we have to say out loud at work.
If that's not enough, a serious Topgolf injury lawsuit turns into a debate about flying golf clubs, safety nets, and whether anyone should need a helmet just to enjoy nachos at a driving range. Plus, there's a dispute over prepaid amusement-park dining plans following changes at the former Six Flags St. Louis.
It's weird news, local headlines, celebrity talk, sports humiliation, and sarcastic humor from your favorite St. Louis morning show. This funny podcast has everything you need to get through your commute, except perhaps a better understanding of why any of us are allowed near a microphone.
