No topic is safe from Black’s trademark style of comedic yelling and animated finger-pointing. Skewering anything and anyone that gets under his skin. On the

176 - The Most Innocent Man, Ever!

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/06/05

Lewis has returned from performing shows in Europe. One of the first things he learned of upon landing was the 34 guilty indictments handed down to Donald Trump by a jury of New Yorkers. The combination of these two events has given him a new perspective, which he's more than willing to share on this week's Rantcast. ___________________ For advertising opportunities email: rantcast@thesyn.com ___________________ TOUR DATES: http://www.lewisblack.com/tickets GET MERCH:

2024/05/29

Happy Memorial Day to you all. Hopefully the long weekend treated you well as we all kept those in our armed forces top of mind. Lewis is wrapping up an European run of shows and will be on a plane headed back to the states by the time you read this. Since ranting into a camera on a plane high in the sky is probably not the best look for someone, Lewis pre-loaded this episode while he was still on the ground (and about to head out to record an episode of The Daily Show) so you can all

172 - Live From Richmond

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/05/08

Lewis is headed overseas, but he left the fans with a stellar episode of The Rantcast. Like many of you, he's having a hard time understanding why a South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem bragged about her animal abuse, why NYC mayor Eric Adams is an idiot, the college campus protests, and ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. It's enraging for all. But perhaps the silver lining of all this might be the promising season of Baltimore Orioles and their hopes to restore some sanity for Lewis this

Lewis it out on the road and enjoying his time performing in front of the fans. So much in fact that he once again brought back The Rant Is Due live from a recent stop in Iowa City (home of Caitlin Clark) where some of the Hawkeye State's finest ranters submitted their hot takes on everything from government officials to their own daughters. It was a wild one out at the Englert Theater in Iowa City.Be sure to check out the Kurt Vonnegut Museum and Library at https://www.vonnegutlibrary.org where

We have a special episode of Lewis Black's Rantcast this week.

Polk Theater in Nashville, TN. ___________________ For advertising opportunities email:

169 - Eclipsed by the Eclipse

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/04/17

It was a week of happenings, not just for Lewis but for the nation as we experienced not only the Solar Eclipse, but a large earthquake for a swath of people in the East. Lewis found himself in Arizona for a charity golf outing, still managing to see the eclipse. Was it the advertised 75% darkness it was advertised as? Maybe not. Unfortunately, the usual crazies bubble up with conspiracy theories around these natural phenomenon (of course). Other newsworthy events include the dreaded annual Tax Day

168 - Escape To The National Comedy Center

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/04/10

The madness of the year has already gotten to us, and if it’s going to continue through the already-declared politics-free summer, perhaps its time to get out of dodge and head on up to the National Comedy Center in Jamestown, NY?What nonsense is happening this week? First off, can anyone fluent in finance explain how Truth Social makes money? While we’re at it, can someone also tackle inflation? While on the topic of explaining things, a Michigan rep could use some help identifying a college

167 - Busted Bridge, Busted Brackets

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/04/03

Being born and raised in the greater Baltimore area, the news on the Francis Scott Key bridge collapse elicits Lewis laments on how it should be repaired. It also appears the level of satire have reached an all-time high between Donald Trump deciding to become a bible salesman and Alabama doing away with diversity programs in its universities. But it doesn’t end there as the Supreme Court is currently hearing arguments over mifepristone and it just reminds Lewis that being a lawyer can sometimes

166 - March Madness

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/03/27

How's your bracket doing? The NCAA College Basketball tournament is Lewis' favorite sporting event of the year. It also serves as a good distraction from the lunacy of the day. A Spring that doesn't seem to have sprung yet. An election cycle that goes on and on. A former President's many, many days in court. Boeing's continued lack of quality control, and perhaps most traumatizing... the discontinuation of dollar hot dog night in Philly.RANT #1 – Michael Franke believes in the art of the

165 - Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/03/20

Does anybody really care?Well, we turned the clocks forward an hour and with it comes the annual debate about whether Daylight Savings time is a good idea or not. With both sides of the argument pulling their annual selective amnesia about the event. March also marks the start of The NCAA College Basketball Tournament which brings both great joy and a great distraction to Lewis. From what? Well, take your pick – could be GOP’s wild response to the State of the Union, Missouri finally realizing it’s

164 - What If We Had An Election And Nobody Voted?

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/03/13

This week on the podcast Lewis ponders what would happen if we all just collectively decided not to vote in the 2024 Presidential Election. This is because of a group of people that just don't feel energized by this year being a rematch of the 2020 election. In one corner a probably insurrectionist and in the other a person who might've done some good but no one seems to hear him. But the lethargy doesn't seem to end with the White House as most of Congress seems to be running in the opposite

163 - In Memory of Richard Lewis

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/03/06

The world lost the comic voice of Richard Lewis this week. Lewis takes a moment to acknowledge the loss of a comedy legend. The national news is still nonsense as what election season wouldn't be complete without another border crisis. Lewis also composed his thoughts enough to weigh in on Alabama's draconian IVF laws and in the process is reminded of a bit he performed over a decade ago that sadly still remains relevant today.But it's not all doom, Baseball is back and Lewis has thoughts on his

#162 - The Stupidity is Stupefying

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2024/02/28

It’s one of those weeks where it’s almost too much to bear. In the wake of mass shootings, Louisiana issues new rules on gun control that are borderline infuriating. The rise of Measles for no good reason will make your head spin. Meanwhile Missouri Senators are debating draconian rules of engagement. If that isn’t enough, another Government shutdown is exactly what we don’t want or need right now. The week was a lot, so much in fact maintaining the proper level or rage over Alabama’s Embryo ruling

2024/02/21

This week on the Rantcast, Lewis ponders why we’re live in a constant heightened state of stress. It’s supposed to snow, but according to the news reports its snowmageddon. Border problems can’t seem to be solved because politicians sabotage themselves. One old person is running for office, let’s make it two. Two celebrities can’t just be dating, they have to be part of a larger political conspiracy. Can’t just watch the Super Bowl, you have to watch a game within a game, within a game. Empty

However, when he decided to talk to his fans about a recent illness he’s been dealing with, he had no idea that there were so many “doctors” amongst his fanbase’s ranks. It’s infuriating. With a new year come new rants, and there are some doozies – from the common like the war on tip culture. The classics –figuring out what exactly makes Flat Earthers tick. To possible

It’s the last Rantcast of 2023 and Lewis takes the opportunity to tell us why it’s the most wonderful time of the year. A few gifts from his friend Kathleen Madigan brings a better perspective on things than last week. Because who can be upset when we now know that brisket-flavored candy canes exist in this world. Lewis’ 2023 tour has officially wrapped and the chance to meet so many fans out on the road made it all worthwhile, so let’s wrap the year with some gratitude and the hope that we’ll might

Lewis Black"s Rantcast ·

2023/12/13

Dick for sure! Many of you might’ve heard that our former leader recently declared he’d be a dictator for just the first day in office and that just seems silly that some people of both his party and the United States are just okay with that idea. Lewis isn’t one of those people and he’s tired of it. This week the news ranges from angry to irate and Lewis speaks for most of us when he declares that he’s sick and tire of being sick and tired.
