Lewis Black's Rantcast

- 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 summer.
The live rants from this week's episode come straight from The National theater in Richmond, VA and run the gamut of complaints, from the big (climate change) to the small (an ex taking back a gift) and the good people of Richmond showed up.

Lewis you inspire passion whether from the beautifully satiric comedy but also for your passionate outpouring about things like our school systems today. It's a joy to hear either way! I was so hoping to get to see you live one more time...
Noem says that she told the story to highlight her willingness "to make tough decisions." She left out "poorly". She's willing to make tough decisions.. poorly.
Don't forget the qualifier word as well: VERY.
There are tough decisions but what she did was not that from what she had in the book.
Doggy could have been trained...by ANYONE else but Noem. Disgusting. It was bird dog. Duh!
Thank you so much for adding a couple dates in NH! ! I missed your last visit because of a nasty round with cancer but Im back in full rant mode with this go look forward to. YOUR laughter is the best medicine.
See you in Amsterdam next week Lewis!
This was a good rant. Thank you Lewis. Keep doing what you are doing.
The Richmond show was my birthday present and I feel so much better. Thank you, Lewis, for emoting all that angst for me. It was cathartic :) I bought the Anger Button merch and have it by my desk. It is perfect for those annoying voice recordings or broken websites :) Happy slow down but hopefully not full retirement! I am right behind you,
The dog was a German wire hair pointer.... not a rare mountain mollosar. She's a beast.

I've been to Roanoke, Virginia, and it was wonderful smelling trees as soon as they opened the plane door! In Illinois, the air pollution has been getting bad steadily so that it's been more than 20 years since I've been able to smell the trees.
33:33 Canadians have opinions on these things because of the hubris of the term "Leader of the Free World." If we can't vote for our "leader", we will certainly have opinions about him.
You talk so much about your dear friend Charlene, I hope one day she will join you on your top of the line Rants
Love your show
My cousin has been teaching 1st grade for over 30 yrs. She truly is a hero, especially now when teachers, parents AND students have to worry about if a school shooting happens in their school! It's insane! And what's worse, this is only happening in our country. No where else in the entire WORLD is this a reality.
You are soo fucking spot on with the pulse of the people, and the press…Thank you, with respect, and love…. Carlin was right about you!👍🏼✌🏼✊🏼🖖🏼
❤❤❤ I’m still jazzed as all mother-effing hell that you read mine!!!!! I hope I do get a 41st show!!! Forever a fan!!! ❤️
You look great tonight Lewis!
I am glad you got rid of the rubber chicken. You are a pro and don’t need props like carrot top.
Good Luck to you!
Vote Republican and we'll all end up like Cricket.
It is very difficult, if impossible, to cure a dog that has killed chickens. I tried various methods of "rehabilitation", but the dog would not respond. It was a sad day to have to have the dog put to sleep by the vet. Solution, keep the dog and chickens separated.
Your commentary on the Tesla monstrosity on TDS, was priceless! I'm still laughing. Through the comments on the replay of that, I found your channel. I need a laugh. We ALL do.
Loved the rants!
Mr. Black, I recommend checking out Democracy Now ,it’s a news organization. They have been fully covering the from the beginning. They talk to the students and walk among them on campus unlike some others.
Always loved your stuff been watching you since my age of reasoning during the bush era. Good health to you 🙂
Which bush era?

The last rant is proof we need to go back to full service gas stations. Pumping gas and checking wiper blades is the only job some people are qualified to do.
that would be the perfect job for trump
@@vendora1 They have gas stations in prison?
@@Styphon idk but they should send trump if there is one like that
It’s beyond comprehension for most people.
Yeah but Geert Wilders in the Netherlands is a lot more restrained because of the presence of so many more political parties that have seats in the government which is basically in a huge coalition.
In other sad news, Bernard Hill who famously played King Theoden in The Lord Of The Rings Trilogy died at the age of 79. He will be missed.
I was supposed to be at the Richmond show. Unfortunately my driver bailed and being visually impaired 😎, no one would rent or loan me a car to drive myself.
😁
This is the first time that CZcams put this on my list, so I have a question, is he the guy that show up on the Kate show with Jordan K last night???. Thanks
My brother trains and hunts with bird dogs. He's very successful and gets his bag limit whenever he goes. He doesn't even start field work until they are two years old.
Lewis , please come to Detroit!!
Lewis, as a society we have Never adjusted to what life used to be...kids had access to their Mom in their home nearly all day, not random daycare workers, Fathers that represented the Fear of God not mostly absent weekend Dads girlfriend searching at Dave and Busters. Teachers who are so tired because to pay their rent the deliver Uber Eats till 2am and are back teaching kids at 9am. What is needed for the adjustment must be a livable wage, an ensured higher education or trade school and a miracle of a kinder heart, diversified understanding of others and a default sense of humor!
I partly agree with your comment but: Fear is not a stable way to parent. I had BOTH types of fathers and it frankly went badly. First my bio dad was the partyer weekender type with numerous girlfriends, and he took off early. Then step that was abusive(multiple types of abuse, and I mean real abuse not negligence). Fear over dad's wild abandon and more fear over stepdad's aggressiveness... so I didn't have a good male rolemodel.
Mom was the bright side but it was a dark brightside. Tagalong buddy part of the time but also strong work ethic. She worked lots and went to college(didn't end up helping her land a career). She leaned me into grandma as a mom much of the times and both females emotionally unavailable from their own dysfunctional childhoods. I didn't find anyone to be a real support. I had to struggle for even my own mind and identity, and still fighting for it, still feeling like a stormtossed island all the times.
I'm proud of both my parents for different reasons - they didn't do everything wrong - but the biggest problems I see in young families today is about the same as it always was: not enough leadership by parents.
I think you're right about money. Doesn't it always go out too easy and come in too scantly? Also I think schools are terribly too expensive for lots of people that end up paying for the schooling but don't often enough end up being able to make a career for themselves.
Seems to me we need to treat each other better, as a species.
P.S. I responded to your comment because it struck a chord in me. I got both types of dads that you described but it had a destabilizing effect in my life.
Well here's to better times; gods help us all, friend. 🍀🥂👓
Perfectly articulated. Thank you so much 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍🥀
As a society, we can't afford to live in a one-income home. It is what it is. But if a child has loving parents, it'll all work out. I had a stay at home mom, but she never really wanted to be a mom. It's not all it's cracked up to be.
@YaWantTaters
I can relate to that as well. My parents struggled so much that I became an interim parent to my younger brothers by the age of 8. By 16, I was more of a father to them than their own dad. My bio dad was a terrible alcoholic and addict who left when I was 1. I had to grow up too fast, and it messed me up. I didn't realize how much it had screwed with me until I started falling apart mentally around the age of 30. Now, at 38, I'm finally getting myself together. I say this to make the case that your entire life will be affected by your childhood. They say that your first 7 years of life will dictate who you are for the rest of your life. I was raised by Gen-X parents and Boomer grandparents. They had very different opinions on parenting, but they both did damage in their own way. Of course, there were benefits from each. My family was always loving, and I never felt like I wasn't loved, so long as I was useful. The disfunction and constant fear left me anxious and afraid of life. By 6, I had become convinced that I was only loved as long I was valuable to my family. It led to low self esteem and feeling worthless for the rest of my life. All of that being in the past, all I can do moving forward is try to do better with my own kids. So far, I think I am doing better. My kids are kids, not tiny adults that have the responsibility of picking up the slack for their parents. My teenage son is a well-rounded, normal kid who is relatively happy. (As happy as a teenage boy gets, anyway). My daughter is 6, and she's a super happy girl who has had a very pleasant life thus far. If I can keep it up for another year, she should do pretty well in life. The biggest difference between my childhood and theirs is the number of kids we have. I have 2 children who are 9 years apart. That allowed us to give each of them lots of attention in their childhood. My parents had 5 kids while making minimum wage. That's a recipe for a stressful and difficult upbringing. All we can do is try our best with the cards we're dealt, but we have to remember that our behavior is permanently molding our children. Anyway, enough ranting. Thanks for your comment.
Lewis good for you!
You must be loving your shot at a world series this year. I'm Yankees fan hoping you won't. LOL
I get it, my dog butterfly barked at the mail man once, And for all!
R.I.P = Butterfly 🐶🔫💀😟😥
Since politics is now a profit- shareholder business now, it doesn’t surprise me that Noam did that ad. 😅
Make arrangements for an absentee ballot.
So when will we see the grand opening of
Jewey Jews Gun Store?
You're amazing, man! You ought to do shows out front of institutions that are social/societal cancer. Maybe a marketing department of a pharmaceutical company? That'd be fun. Or in front of the Supreme Court?
I'm in Healthcare. The greed pimps fucked up that institution. What a nightmare for patients to navigate. Even as an employee, policies seem to be written in easily manipulated language.
Welcome to Kafka Health. Your next appointment with a specialist is somewhere within this labyrinth. Have your credit card and insurance ready. Hobble on in. Arrive 15 mins early to check in so you can wait for 30 minutes to have the specialist order a test that is 3 months out, because of this, ERs have essentially turned into walk in clinics, and urgent cares seem to be just a place that can't do anything, but they'll collect a copay for telling you that they don't have the necessary diagnostic equipment to do a proper workup, so we recommend going to er.
Tr..pf is ALWAYS talking about himself when he badmouths anyone else.
QUICK! Someone get Trump a Furry Puppy suit!
Yeah the chicken 🐔 gobbler should be no problem, SLOW, A NEVER MISS!
I'd bet her kids are behaving, 🤔the heck with the dog, this had to really traumatize her kids,
I guess you didn't read far enough to get to where she had to "put down" three horse/s that had been with the family for "years"
She wanted free dental cosmetics. Advertisement shilling was her only way .
Animal husbandry can be brutal. Dogs that kill chickens are put down or shot. Once they get the taste of blood the dog is spoiled. I think it stems from neglect to begin with. You have to train your dog to be around other animals at a very young age. Dogs have to be introduced to other dogs, chickens, goats, cats and horses- and children. The owner must be present in order to be a master. This is something you probably learn from your father as a young child. It's a tough lesson. I hated it. So I was vigilant. Thanks for the excellent rant cast Lewis.
I understand.... another of people don't. Until they walk in those shoes ...they will not understand. Its Sarah McLachlan fault!!!!
Brussels?!? Holy shit
Justin T needs a new hair parting, IFUKWIM
Maybe she broke her tooth in the gravel pit 🤔
noem also shot 3 Horses...
And backed it up by putting 3 horses down. Go figure.
Animals are not disposable; shelters and rescue organizations take in unwanted animals and try to find that animal’s “ people”. She wasn’t the right fit for that dog; someone else would be a perfect fit for that dog. “ Hunting dogs”, “Hound-dogs” are deserving of a safe, loving home. Abuse is not acceptable.
Are you going to do any golfing in Europe?
16:30 - I will second all of those comments about Japan. It's a practical utopia compared to the US. If you ask someone for directions, they are likely to take time out of their day to DRIVE YOU to where you want to go. "Southern hospitality" seems like a kick in the dick compared to how hospitable the Japanese are - even to "gaijin". We had a Marine lose their wallet at the train station, return the following day, and it was still there with everything intact. People just don't touch shit that doesn't belong to them in Japan. There is practically no trash/litter. I was on a UDP deployment to Iwakuni for six months. If I could afford to, I'd return, and never think about the US again.
While enjoying yourself. You deserve it. But check out the podcast "I've Had It". I think you and them have a lot to bitch about together. Lol😅 Your all awesome. ❤ you
Go O's
What do you mean, "nothing we can do about it" "we"are paying for "it"😮
Everyone's fukt
And how do I do that@T.ELEGRAMLewisBlack1
One big reason that Japan is so liveable: from 1937-1945, the government stripped the assets of the top 1% wealthiest down to the level of the top 5%-2%. It should’ve been cited by activist economists ever since.
With the bird am with the fuck you fan club 😂❤....
Man... You of all people should recognize a blatant gaslighting by corporate media....
Like it or not, for working and hunting farm dogs, if they don't train up, they very often get put down...they were never intended to be pets. I couldn't live that way personally, but many thousands do.....
I'd like to add a thought on that last note about the teachers bit. I find it ever so funny (and stupid) that the same people who hate the idea that teachers make a decent wage are the same ones who throw the biggest tantrum over a single day that maybe they'd have to pick up their kids early or they can't take them to the school because of some emergency. If their kids are such a joy to have around, what does that say about the parents hating the idea that they have to watch the kid a little more?
This is especially notable at a time where teachers have to fight a battle that they never asked for (like our medical professionals did during COVID). This battle being something that other people came up with because they just wanted to, like the useless pricks they are. These parents are far more childish than their stupid kids are. Maybe that's why they hate the idea of spending a little more time with them. They serve as a reflection of the parents and how no one likes to be around them. To no fault of the child if that's the case, but those kids need better role models in their lives than their useless parents.
Too true. Out of control adult children making babies with no considerations. Way too much of that going on. Babies from pride and lust. NO accountability. So many wrong heads. I can't even anymore😬😵💫
I've never wanted to breed because I've seen people acting wrong CONSTANTLY all my life.
Why? It's a MAGA thing.
Please look into the old way of life before you judge..... I don't agreed but it was and is a real thing.
Hey Lew, where are the Biden jokes? Just to let you know that Biden is a big joke and tons of material there. Maybe you just don’t get it. Go Tar Heels!
Lewis what did you expect they came across and murdered 1200 people, I’d be a little upset if I lost a loved one for a political statement. Eye for an eye.
Over 15k children have been murdered in Gaza since Oct 7. You have the audacity to claim “an eye for an eye”? 35k Palestinians have been killed since Oct 7. If we go with your daft comment, Hamas has quite a few more Israeli citizens to take out. To even the score. 35k compared with 1200 & 200 (or so) hostages.
40,000 minus 1500 that's 38,500 difference. Sounds about right. bebe has assured the bloodshed on both sides for centuries to come and hey we get to pay for it😅
You spent so much of the bish administration warning is of exactly this same shit
