Summary
On today’s episode of The Rizzuto Show — your favorite chaotic comedy podcast broadcasting straight out of St. Louis — we celebrate one of the most important holidays of our generation: Thumb Appreciation Day. That’s right. The digit that lets you text, game, hitchhike, and argue in comment sections finally gets the respect it deserves. Naturally, this turns into a completely unnecessary debate about favorite body parts, which spirals immediately into hypothetical amputation scenarios. Because maturity.
But before we derail entirely, we dig into an actual piece of Saint Louis history: the anniversary of the 1930 aviation stunt where a cow named Elm Farm Ollie was flown in a plane and milked mid-air — with the milk parachuted down to spectators. Aviation innovation or Midwest flex? You decide.
Then Rafe Williams officially announces his upcoming headlining run at the Funny Bone in Westport during Easter weekend. Yes, Holy Thursday through Saturday. Yes, new material. Yes, we tried to roast him about it. It’s what we do on this daily comedy show.
The second half of the episode turns into absolute chaos during the One Second Song Game. Classic rock riffs. Panic sweats. Led Zeppelin confusion. Nazareth vs. Grand Funk meltdowns. A Boston debate that gets way too passionate. And a clutch Pink Floyd guess that seals the deal. If you love music trivia and watching grown adults unravel over one-second guitar riffs, this comedy podcast delivers.
As always, expect sarcastic humor, weird news, entertainment gossip energy, and that unmistakable Rizz and the gang vibe that makes this the best comedy podcast coming out of STL.
You don’t come here for polish. You come here for chaos.
