Lewis Black has some things to get off his chest! With his weekly podcast "Lewis Black’s Rantcast," the Grammy-winning comedian does just that. Channeling his anger in ways only a man who’s devoted his entire life to ranting can do. The tirades are sometimes big, other times small, yet they are always fun-spirited and truly hilarious. 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 "Rantcast," Black isn’t the only person getting things off his chest, each week Lewis allows fans to submit their gripes so he can commiserate in their frustrations. Black’s long career includes movie roles in Accepted, the voice of Anger in the Pixar’s "Inside Out," and is currently the longest-running correspondent on Comedy Central’s "The Daily Show."

And The Fun Never Stops
Well, somehow the news was even crazier than it was last week, if that's even possible. The weekend began with computers across the world crashing and sending things into turmoil and then it with Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 Presidential race. Something that has not happened decades. This all causing us to ask, will the fun ever stop? It's a good thing prepped for the weekend with a quick stop in Atlantic city for plenty of subs and gambling. Join Lewis as he attempts to make sense of it all.

The United States of Insanity
Things are insane! It seems we decided to take a speed run through current events this past weekend. One story alone was enough to make your head spin. But over the course of 72 hours, America was hit with not only an attempted assassination of a former-President-turned-current- candidate. Then, a day later a Florida judge made a controversial decision about the same former-President-turned-current-candidate. Then, a day after that former-President-turned-current-candidate selected someone as his potential Vice President who once hated him but now loves him? Oh, and the former-President-turned-current-candidate had to pick the new running mate because he tried to have his last one killed. You follow?
But it made for a good photo op, right? We’re at least united in our insanity.

What's Next?
This past week was Independence day and it seems the world has gone mad. Most of the country is in the midst of a heatwave. The press is having a field day with our candidates in a Presidential election that costs too much money. But it’s also going on for too long and leaking into a previously-declared politics-free summer. The GOP candidate is doing his darndest to erase all the progress of the 20th Century with the worst of takes on pretty much every social issue while the Dems are coming to grips with their candidate’s health. That said, there is still a functioning government out there, you just need to find it.
We have one listener rant this week and it’s a special one from Greg Douglass. Why only one? Because his story as a military veteran attempting to navigate his health issues post service is so very relevant to hear on the 4th of July. If anyone out there can help Greg and his situation, please drop an email to rantcast@thesyn.com and we will work to get you connected to this Veteran.

The Truth?
What a wild week, so much has happened in the world. One thing is enough to make your ears bleed, but we in the US are dealing with more than one thing. To sum it all up, we have people who can't say the truth while others need to come to grips with it. The debates, SCOTUS decisions, re-elections, church and state, it all seemed to come to a head this week, time to unpack it all.

Thou Shalt Not Be Stupid
The 10 commandments have been in the news a lot lately and Lewis is here to tell us there is an 11th one. And it might be the most important of them all. Whether it be your approach to family, politics, or something else. It’s time to abide by his new commandment.

Inside Out 2
Lewis stars in the new Pixar film, Inside Out 2 reprising his role as the character of Anger in the film. The film landed atop the box office opening weekend and to date is has the best opening weekend in 2024. So congratulations are in order for our favorite animated emotion. Lewis spent the days leading up to the release doing press with his fellow cast members at Disneyland California before attending the movie's premiere. And on this week's episode of the Rantcast (recorded before the opening weekend numbers were released) he recaps his trip to the West Coast and his experience with the film.
And if you want to go see the movie, check out tickets and times here.
