Summary
This comedy podcast starts exactly where you’d expect—with us complaining about not being nominated for an award we absolutely deserved. I mean, we had MONKEYS. In the studio. Causing chaos. Grabbing things. Possibly committing minor crimes. And somehow… not even a finalist. Cool. Totally fine. We’re not bitter at all.
But then the episode takes a turn (don’t worry, we’re still idiots, just slightly more meaningful idiots).
We sit down with Texan from Swing Along Monkey Rescue and Chris from Thin Line Retreat, and suddenly we’re talking about something way bigger than radio awards—mental health, PTSD, and helping veterans and first responders find real healing.
Chris, a Marine vet and longtime police officer, is building a retreat from the ground up designed to help people who’ve seen some serious stuff. And Texan? She’s bringing monkeys into the mix—not as a gimmick, but as a legit therapeutic experience. And yeah, it sounds wild… because it is. But it also works.
We get into how animal therapy can break through emotional walls, why community matters more than people think, and how trauma doesn’t just affect one person—it hits the whole family. It’s one of those rare moments where the show gets real without losing its personality (don’t worry, we still make plenty of dumb jokes).
Also, casually, Texan reveals she was an undercover narcotics officer posing as a high school student… which somehow becomes one of the most insane side stories we’ve ever heard. Because of course it does.
So yeah—this comedy podcast has everything:
- Award show bitterness
- Monkeys running wild
- Deep conversations about healing
- And a real-life 21 Jump Street situation
Basically, it’s the most “Rizz Show” episode possible.
And hey—if the awards people won’t recognize greatness, at least you can.
