Brothel Dreams & Musical Mishaps
If you’ve got $34 million sitting around and have always dreamed of owning 50 acres of Nevada desert with a slightly more colorful business history than your average strip mall, congratulations: The Rizzuto Show may have found your next investment. Episode 158 starts with Rizz asking the perfectly normal morning-radio question: who wants to go in on a brothel? The estate of the late Dennis Hof has put the Bunny Ranch legacy portfolio up for sale, including the Moonlite Bunny Ranch, Sagebrush Ranch and Love Ranch. That means nearly 50 acres, buildings, residential units, equipment, vehicles, websites, branding and the kind of business names that make explaining your new career at Thanksgiving significantly more difficult. Naturally, Lern immediately wants to know if Air Force Amy is still involved, Moon wants to see the P&Ls, and Rafe wonders whether the oldest profession might also be recession-proof. Finally, a comedy show providing the serious investment analysis CNBC is too afraid to tackle. From there, the crew meets a Nebraska musician accused of double- and triple-booking events, collecting deposits and then allegedly sending multiple clients the same last-minute excuse: the band had been in a car accident. One wedding family had even spent extra money building a custom stage before the musician canceled minutes before he was supposed to perform. For actual working musicians Lern and Moon, that one hits a nerve. Moon talks about nearly three decades of playing gigs without remembering ever canceling a show, while Lern explains why her band generally stays away from weddings altogether. Apparently the secret to avoiding a wedding-band scandal is simply refusing to become a wedding band. Innovative. Then comes the latest technological advancement nobody in the studio actually needs: a $2,000 foldable iPhone. The crew debates the alleged iPhone Duo, foldable screens, whether buying the first generation of anything is a terrible idea, phone leasing, suspiciously glitchy older phones and the ancient blood feud between Apple users and the Droid Boys. Rizz considers buying one despite openly admitting he has virtually no reason to own it. That conversation leads to Rizz’s Meta glasses, which Lern would like everyone to remember are capable of recording people. This produces perhaps the most efficient technology review of the morning: not everyone who owns Meta glasses is creepy…but according to Rizz, apparently every creep owns Meta glasses. Things finally move into Crap on Celebrities, where Nirvana is discussed in connection with MTV’s Video Vanguard Award and the crew wonders whether Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic could help convince anyone their age to find MTV again. Rizz also discovers the mysterious St. Charles login that caused him to change his streaming password wasn’t an international cybercriminal. It was Moon. Moon was just trying to watch Tulsa King. Mystery solved. Password destroyed. Friendship somehow intact. There’s also frustration over a Soundgarden halftime performance that didn’t make the broadcast, Billy Joel discussing brain surgery and recovery, memories of Joel famously losing his mind over concert lighting, Pantera-related festival talk and plenty more music and entertainment chaos packed into Crap on Celebrities. And because this comedy show apparently needed one more gear, NASCAR drivers Jordan Anderson, Blaine Perkins and Jeb Burton are part of the day’s lineup surrounding the big race weekend at World Wide Technology Raceway. Then Rafe prepares Take Five, where listeners try to predict the answers of isolated members of the show for a shot at concert tickets. Candlebox, Violent Femmes, Toadies with Local H, Babymetal with Halestorm and Rush tickets are on the table, proving that occasionally this circus does provide tangible benefits. Somewhere between the Nevada brothel real-estate portfolio, musicians behaving badly, folding phones, Meta-glasses paranoia, streaming-password confusion, rock-news detours and NASCAR invading the studio, Episode 158 becomes exactly what a comedy show should be: several conversations that absolutely should not belong together, somehow held together by Rizz and the gang.
