Lewis is out on the Fall leg of his Goodbye Yeller Brick Road tour and this past weekend the show rolled through a few stops in Kansas. On Sunday night in Salina, KS he took to the stage at the Steifel Theater for the Performing Arts and read some fan rants. They ranged from hot takes about Daylight Savings Time, political ads, and our never-ending desire for social media attention. Enjoy.

The anxiety about the election is at an all-time high. But that’s not the most important thing on Lewis’ mind. He’s deep in the week’s NFL games and how his Commanders are performing with a spectacular comeback that broke him out of his sleep-deprived weekend of shows down south. Back on the election front, Lewis has hot takes about the state of things. It forces him to make a decision that he doesn’t take much joy in or does lightly. And that is publicly endorsing a candidate. We end with a piece Lewis wrote some years back about the election. See you on the other side.

Lewis just spent the weekend in Skokie, IL and while there he discovered Will's Place a great restaurant with an even better mission, so let him tell you all about it. Lewis also realized an important anniversary was upon him and probably why he felt off on stage one night. But it's not long before the looming election pokes its head up again and, well that goes about as well as you'd imagine with lies and crime on both the local and national level. Is it election day yet?

Lewis is back in his public access podcasting studio this week. He returned from the road just in time to catch the Vice Presidential debates, possibly so you didn't have to, because it featured a lot of nonsense, and in at least one candidate's case, the normalization of said nonsense. While the debates were one thing, Lewis also has some thoughts on his beloved Baltimore Orioles ending their season after not advancing in the Wild Card playoffs.

Lewis recaps his trip out West to attend The Emmy Awards for the first time in 20 years. Not only did he get to experience a win with his Daily Show crew but met up with a couple former collaborators. What did he learn from the experience? Mostly that LA is still a surreal place to visit. But the weirdness isn’t only confined to the West Coast as Lewis finds out what’s happening in Ohio, Georgia, Venezuela, and right at home in NY where one of the wildest stories of the week leaves him dumbfounded.

Lewis watched the presidential debates and, whooo boy! Does he have some thoughts about it. Not only did he get particularly enraged about the two minute format, but just what was said on stage flat out seemed to be detached from reality. But the action didn’t stop there as there was plenty of post-game analysis by pundits that was just as zany. After the debates, Lewis battled the political spam messaging but it might not be one he can win. But don’t worry if you want an escape from all the politics as there’s plenty more crazy happening around the country.
This episode features a clip from the Master Plan podcast that includes an excerpt of the Powell Memo read by Lewis himself. The podcast is a new investigative series hosted by award-winning journalist and former Bernie Sanders speechwriter David Sirota (who is also the Oscar-nominated screenwriter for the Adam McKay film Don’t Look Up) has been working to unearth never-before-reported documents showing how a group of tycoons legalized corruption for the wealthy. It's an epic journey from the 1970s to the present, hearing the untold stories of infamous folks you already thought you knew — like President Richard Nixon and Fox News boss Roger Ailes. And you’ll meet operatives and oligarchs you’ve probably never heard of, because they’ve wielded their power in the shadows.
If you somehow think government corruption doesn’t affect your daily life, think again: from high medical bills to lower wages today, it’s all part of the "Master Plan."

Lewis has returned from some time off celebrating both Labor Day and his birthday and he's doing his best to not lose his cool. A concept that's really difficult considering what's happening in the world around him. But there's hope, for Rantcast regular Mildred Ellison found a story that just tickled Lewis' fancy. This episode was recorded before the debates happened so the rage towards that will be saved for next week. But that doesn’t mean there’s nothing out there to make you grumpy from Florida quietly trying to be a little less helpful to minority groups to a town in NC that fears the sun.

It's Labor Day and Lewis also just celebrated a birthday. With those two things in mind we're presenting you a Best Of for this week's episode of The Rantcast. In the spirit of our half-hearted attempt to turn Lewis into a food influencer in his post-touring life, we present a Best Of: Food Rants for you all. Some from fans, some from the man himself, all about food.
Enjoy, Lewis will return next week.

Lewis is back from Vegas and after the travel nightmare story from last week, there’s still a lot from the travel that pissed him off. In fact, he didn’t even get the chance to share what his Vegas experience was like (hint, a lot has changed) and how he’s now even more committed to his idea of a new hotel there on the strip. At the same time, the DNC National convention just wrapped and there’s a lot of talk about the vibes that came out of Chicago. While he is still trying to grasp what exactly they mean by “vibes” it seems most people are already turning toward the schedule debates between the two candidates. Ugh, is this election over yet? It’s a good thing we have the long Labor Day weekend to recover from it all.

Lewis was just in Las Vegas performing and while the shows went great, the flight home was anything but. It was as he described it as one of the worst travel experiences of his life. Which is saying a lot for someone whose made a living on the road traveling for decades. This trek included heavy storms, grounded planes, storms, boarding planes, de-boarding planes, and Buffalo. And somewhere in the midst of the chaos he got a buffalo chicken wing omelet, so perhaps it wasn't all bad?

Lewis is back on the road to complete the final leg on his final tour (dates at www.lewisblack.com) and he has a couple warm-up dates lined up before the fall starts. Mostly to re-learn his act since he’s been trying his hardest to maximize downtime this summer. With dates in Cleveland last weekend and a couple shows in Las Vegas this weekend the road also brings great things like the chance to eat some terrific food. While Lewis might not consider himself a foodie, he certainly does appreciate a good meal, so nobody should be surprised if he becomes a food influencer as he winds down his time on the road. Not a bad way to spend your time. In the headlines Lewis has a follow-up to the Boneless Wing controversy, finds out they make designer fragrances for dogs, and learns about the alleged bad benefits of wearing all black clothes.

Why that title? Because it’s a great metaphor for Lewis’ golf game. On in which he recently spent time in Maine working on. While there, Lewis took the time to keep ownership of his summer. For anyone who has followed the Rantcast for a while knows that summer is our time and should be politics free. Unfortunately that doesn’t seem to be possible these days. Why? Because VP running mates are being chosen and political nepotism has led us to dead bears being dumped in Central Park. If you don’t understand that last detail, you’re probably actually having a great summer.

One would think after last week’s whirlwind of news that this week would be somewhat quieter, but you would be wrong. With an election season heating up it seems the news is coming from everywhere. One of the biggest stories of the week being the constant flow of idiotic things said by GOP Vice Presidential hopeful, JD Vance. Whom seemed to put his foot in his mouth with each passing day, encouraging Lewis to declare the “JD” stands for “Just Dumb.” But it’s not all politics as the Olympics have kicked off in Paris, a city Lewis has visited many times and has a personal connection to. Speaking of personal connections, the West Bank Café, a theater where Lewis got his start in NYC is closing its doors after 46 years.
Lewis also provides an update on Greg Douglas, the military veteran who recently submitted a lengthy rant to the Rantcast.

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.

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.

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 [email protected] and we will work to get you connected to this Veteran.

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.

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.
