The Rizzuto Show | Daily Comedy PodcastDAILY SHOW: Hit A Tire And Ride The Bull | The Rizzuto Comedy Podcast
Tommy Davidson joins The Rizzuto Show with stories involving some of the biggest names in comedy history, the crew fights over the greatest science-fiction movies ever made, and eventually somebody decides it’s time to bring the Glory Hole Challenge back from the dead.
So yes, this comedy podcast covers the entire cultural spectrum.
Tommy takes us through his incredible career, including In Living Color, Booty Call and getting personally recruited by Jim Carrey for Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. He remembers being handed a loincloth and a bag and essentially being asked, “Can you fit in both of these?” Ah, Hollywood.
The conversation gets even better when Tommy remembers grinding away at The Comedy Store before finally getting his shot in the main room. His first big assignment? Thirty minutes sandwiched between Eddie Murphy and Richard Pryor. Tommy crushed the opportunity, and afterward Pryor walked over and told him he was funny. That’ll probably beat any performance review the rest of us receive this year.
Tommy also opens up about being adopted, how his upbringing shaped his perspective on race and humanity, and the lessons he learned working around comedy legends like Robin Williams, George Carlin and Jamie Foxx. He explains why learning to play the straight man became just as important as getting the laugh — especially while working on In Living Color and Booty Call.
Then this comedy podcast makes the natural transition from Richard Pryor to murderous Mickey Mouse.
The crew gets into the original Mickey Mouse entering the public domain, bizarre horror adaptations, KISS preparing for its avatar era and the legal weirdness of famous characters eventually becoming fair game.
That somehow turns into a full-blown argument over the greatest science-fiction movies ever made. The Matrix, Terminator 2, Alien, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Interstellar, E.T., They Live, Predator, The Fifth Element and plenty more enter the fight.
And because apparently Tommy Davidson wasn’t enough entertainment for one episode, the show resurrects an old favorite:
The Glory Hole Challenge.
The infamous mystery-object contraption returns in the new studio, Jeff gets thrown into the hot seat, and his ability to identify objects without seeing or hearing anything is immediately tested in ways no respectable workplace would approve.
It’s comedy history, movie arguments, pop-culture chaos and deeply questionable radio games packed into one comedy podcast.
Basically, we start with Richard Pryor and end with a glory hole.
