The Rizzuto Show kicks off exactly how you’d expect: with a completely unnecessary “rock emergency” involving missing headphones and a dramatic sprint across the building—because nothing says professionalism like panic before 7am.

From there, things somehow get even more unhinged.

The crew dives into the weird magic of the algorithm—how it feeds you hyper-specific content until suddenly you’re emotionally invested in 45-second songs from a band you didn’t know existed five minutes ago. It’s modern media consumption at its finest… or most concerning.

Then comes jury duty. Moon gets summoned, and instead of quietly handling it like a normal citizen, the show immediately turns it into a strategy session on how to either get out of it—or fully lean in and turn it into content. There’s talk of fake enthusiasm for capital punishment, courtroom theatrics, and whether being “in the media” still gets you a free pass (spoiler: probably not).

As if that wasn’t enough, the gang breaks down the 2026 hurricane name list like it’s an NFL draft. Yes, Hurricane Kyle is absolutely a problem. Yes, Nana is somehow more terrifying. And yes, someone suggests building an all-time hurricane starting lineup—which is exactly as ridiculous as it sounds.

In the middle of all this chaos, there’s actually something useful: a deep dive into a guy who makes a living negotiating car prices on your behalf. A real-life professional haggler who saves people thousands—basically the hero we all need but don’t deserve.

And then… we meet “Major Hands.”

This episode kicks off with some classic “we’re getting older and don’t like it” energy as the crew reflects on time, aging, and how somehow everyone else looks older… except themselves (science still can’t explain it). Then things take a sharp left turn into a heated debate about 90s movies — specifically City of Angels. Is it a beautiful romantic classic, or is it absolute trash that should’ve stayed buried in 1998? Let’s just say… not everyone agrees, and feelings are definitely questioned.

We also dive into March Movie Mayhem — because nothing says productivity like arguing over fictional brackets — and somehow end up talking about the iconic Back to the Future truck selling for a price that makes everyone reconsider their life choices.

In true daily comedy show fashion, the conversation bounces from celebrity drama to reality TV addiction (that everyone pretends to hate but absolutely watches), to a deep dive into leprechaun movies that no one asked for but everyone gets stuck talking about anyway. And of course, it wouldn’t be complete without revisiting the legendary leprechaun news clip — because tradition matters.

Add in some celebrity chaos, Oscar drama, and a whole lot of sarcastic commentary, and you’ve got an episode that perfectly captures what happens when a group of people with microphones just… keep talking.

This episode of The Rizzuto Show is what happens when a legit success story collides headfirst with absolute nonsense — aka your favorite funny podcast doing what it does best.

We welcome St. Louis native Ricky Montgomery, who went from recording music in a basement to casually stacking hundreds of millions of streams after TikTok resurrected his songs during the pandemic. No big deal. Just your average “almost quit music, then became wildly successful” situation.

Ricky walks us through the journey — from Eureka High School and MySpace bands to viral fame, record label chaos, and why St. Louis still matters to him even after moving to LA. It’s one of those rare moments where the show almost feels inspirational… don’t worry, we fix that quickly.

Because then we bring in his brother Zane.

And suddenly this funny podcast turns into a full-blown sibling showdown.

We dive into their childhood, creative differences, and what it’s like watching your brother go from “guy with a guitar” to “guy with 878 million streams.” It’s wholesome. It’s supportive. It’s… immediately ruined by Rafe introducing a trivia game that pits them against each other in the most chaotic way possible.

“Hot Brother-on-Brother Action” (yes, we’re sticking with that name) is exactly what it sounds like — rapid-fire, elementary-level questions where one wrong answer ends your dignity. Spoiler: things get competitive fast.

Between viral fame stories, music industry insanity, and sibling rivalry that feels way too real, this episode delivers everything you expect from a funny podcast — unpredictable, ridiculous, and somehow still grounded in real moments.
