The Rizzuto Show

A daily comedy podcast from St. Louis' top morning radio show, featuring five hosts riffing on pop culture, weird news, and personal stories.

The brief

This is a classic morning radio 'zoo crew' show, repackaged as a daily multi-hour podcast. Five hosts with distinct personalities—the anchor (Rizzuto), the musician (Moon), the comedian (Rafe), the female voice (Lern), and the wild card (King Scott)—banter about a mix of local St. Louis happenings, weird news stories, sports, and their own personal lives. The humor is a blend of observational comedy, absurd hypotheticals, and constant roasting among the co-hosts.

The show's key distinction is its five-host dynamic, which creates a chaotic, unpredictable, and genuinely funny environment where conversations can go anywhere. Unlike many comedy podcasts, its roots in daily terrestrial radio give it a strong local St. Louis identity and a fast-paced, multi-topic structure.

What you'll be asked on this show

AI-extracted from recent episodes · help us verify
How the host interviews

The Rizzuto Show is a co-hosted conversational show, not a guest-interview-focused program. On the rare occasion a guest joins, like the episode with Luke Spencer, the format is a collaborative discussion rather than a formal interview. The hosts and guest work together to present a pre-planned topic, with the hosts adding personal anecdotes and reactions. There is no recurring, structured interview style.

The show is a free-flowing, multi-person conversation with minimal structure, emulating a live morning radio broadcast. Host Scott Rizzuto typically introduces topics, but the discussion is an ensemble effort. Episodes often feature recurring segments like 'Bang or Dud' and 'Facebook Marketplace Price is Right', alongside discussions of personal anecdotes and weird news headlines.
