Lewis Black's Rantcast

730
Stand-Up #11

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."We wanna make the podcast even better, help us learn how we can: https://bit.ly/2EcYbu4 For advertising opportunities please email PodcastPartnerships@Studio71us.com   Privacy Policy: https://www.studio71.com/us/terms-and-conditions-use/#Privacy%20Policy

    Repeat, Repeat,Repeat
    Louis, I love love love you but the way you repeat yourself I guess to make a point is beyond annoying, especially in your most latest episode.. why do you need to repeat things over and over and over and over again?? Please go back and listen to your last episode and tell me if you don't feel annoyed??

    Awesome
    Love the show Lewis. Thanks for giving us a voice. You’re the best. All us reserved types really appreciate it. Safe travels. Take care. Julie
  • TO TELL THE TRUTH....
    Lewis Rocks…
    I love this podcast. If you’re a relative sane person who questions a lot of going ons that annoy you to your core, this is the podcast for you!! Like the conglomerate of commercials at the end rather than peppered throughout the rant..

    Great podcast
    Found Lewis through Kathleen Madigan’s podcast, love them both. I’m now binge listening to back episodes. Genuinely hilarious and smart. Keep it coming Lewis

    Thanks
    Though the Fox News podcast advertisement…seems odd
  • Pzlgk
    Lewis being cranky makes me calm
    exposure to more points of view is always a good thing. let Lewis shine some light on pimples of the world.

    Lewis is fun, the people’s writing is great
    I think we all have a “Lewis” voice in our heads and Lewis expresses it to the world for us. I sure hope Lewis is being paid well by all those looser podcaster advertisers who are telling Lewis’s listeners to pause his podcast and go listen to there’s instead. Those geniuses should understand their ads instill negative feelings in us Lewis fans. Hey Lewis, bump your ad rates up, these dummies are desperate for listeners.

    Waste of time
    Nothing funny about Lewis Black
  • Eric35678
    I love the rubber chicken!
    Very funny
  • GoldJedi
    And the Rubber Chicken says…
    “Lewis needs to keep me on staff because it adds the perfect amount of irony to the stupidity our world is steeped in like Earl Grey tea, but what do I know? I’m just a rubber chicken!” Joking aside, I trust Lewis Black to provide a truthful yet satirical look at current events while keeping his fingers on the pulse of the human condition. It’s not lazy to have people rant about what honestly bothers them; it’s genius!

    My Lighthouse in the Storm
    He’s has been a comedic pillar of mine for decades. I’ve seen him live many times, and his craft is tight and masterful, even when ad-libbing. This podcast is a great way to still hear him live, and a great way for my index fingers to get a workout as I twitch them along to the rants. Great stress relief like a workout or a massage, but for the ball of anger that sits in the pit of our stomachs. This podcast is a breath of fresh air to get the anger out and approach life again with a refreshed sense of optimism and wisdom. Until we come back next week with a whole new set of problems. Rinse and repeat. Thanks for all the laughs, Uncle Lew. We appreciate you probably more than you know.

    Rubber Chicken
    Rubber Chicken is awesome, please keep your right hand man , your partner in comedy.
  • LexxZuse
    Let the venting commence!
    Love it, thank you for the release valve.
  • LeelaSavage
    Talk about redacted, try being Assange.
    I’ve always loved you, Lewis. You went after everyone and everything. Now you’re so politically biased you could be Pelosi’s ice cream refrigerator salesman. My heart is broken. Pull your head out of Schumer’s loose buttocks, Lewis. Park your funny self back in neutral. Ask the Swiss. Non biased is so extra.
  • GeneralPeatry
    Lewis is the hero we need and deserve
    We need 1000% more Lewis, and -9000% of the people he rants about 😡 Lewis for president 2024!

    Lewis, I love your Rantcast. I live in Jamestown, have always lived here, and it always brings tears to my eyes to hear you plug the NCC. I love it and I love how much YOU love it. Thank you
  • poplopez
    Incredible show
    Incredible show with amazing observations and excellent commentary on current headlines and politics.
  • mgd1961
    Fun show
    We need more of Lewis’ approach to life in America today. Totally entertaining and thought provoking. I love it!

    I love how Mr. Black plays with the English language and explains to Congress people how they should behave if they are going to get elected to Congress, and the reason we have sports is so we have an acceptable avenue for venting. Thank you for all your rantcasts!
  • Jackfortunati
    Yes!
    Lewis Black in podcast form! May the incels dump Rogan and come here for a reality check!
  • Anjison
    Way too many ads
    30min episode has 10 ads. It really detracts from the enjoyment of the episode. It is otherwise a very enjoyable podcast. The first part of the episode usually has a theme and a clear direction, but not always. The second half is usually random audience “rants”.
  • Sue cag
    Fantastic
    Very good Lou. Nice format, very entertaining.
  • Peter Inyerhol
    Where?
    Is this a thing anymore?
  • penguin 51
    Cannot play
    Why don,t episodes play.
  • Saxon in Cal
    Love the show once it actually plays
    It’s a real bummer that for at least the last 3 episodes it won’t play after the initial 20-30s ad. It gets fixed usually before the next episode comes out. Please fix the problem! I love to hear Lewis to read rants about is one show.
  • lindeeq
    Love but episodes won’t play
    Last three episodes go 20 sec to a minutes then will not continue. Wish you could fix. Missing my Lewis fix!!!
  • avgdave$420
    Love
    Love this podcast!
  • stalerodney66
    Last couple episodes won’t play.
    Can you please fix the last 3-4 episodes so we can hear them? They won’t play past 5 seconds and the audio is so quiet I have turn my car stereo all the way up to hear them and it’s still hard to hear.
  • pantomime21
    Finally working but last 2
    were never altered or fixed?! Bummer.
  • Beans524
    Two episodes in a row I can’t listen to
    I get three seconds of the podcast - a commercial- and then it switches to one of my other podcasts! Is this because Lewis is now doing video casts? I want to be able to listen in the car the same old way. Aaaaargh!
  • 2MoonAlice
    Episode 50
    Episode won’t go past 2 seconds. Just stops. Can it be fixed. I need my dose of rant. Thanks
  • AKaitlinReviews
    Perhaps I’m just not the targeted audience
    Rambling rants without a clear point. Perhaps that is the point, but I didn’t find this enjoyable. Showed up as recommended for me but I can’t imagine why.
  • Mel 0709
    Love Lewis
    Rantcast is the perfect title for this! I’m so glad Lewis Black is regularly putting out his sarcasm-laced straight talk. It’s just the balm I need in these times.
  • Lycanthrope51
    Hey Fox is the only news 2/10/21:
    Thanks for sharing your ignorance. Don’t listen. By the way, GFY. Do it today. Lewis, keep up the great work. Little by little programs like yours will chip away at the ignorance of the lemmings who worship ex-President Punk. For those who follow a twice-impeached bigot, racist and moron, every little bit may help.
  • smallfavor
    Is this the funny?
    This blathering about the election is sadly disappointing. He comes off every bit as small-minded and conceited as those he’s condemning.

    An Amazing Mix of Vitriol and Empathy
    I enjoy Lewis’s work in general, so this podcast is a kind of natural fit with me. What I didn’t really expect was how our host empathizes and affirms the ranters as he reads his rants. Others have pointed out that actually calm down while listening. I find I do to, particularly as Lewis Black kindly affirms the rage and frustration behind the rants he reads. It is a thoroughly delightful and unexpected experience. I don’t know another performer who could pull this off.
  • Azero1e
    Classic Lewis
    so great to be able to hear him on a regular basis. I love his talks before the rants, would love tro hear more
  • Garyjohnjames
    AWESOME PODCAST
    Lewis does this podcast just right! Gets to the jokes, sarcasm and weird stuff without beating around the bush like a lot of others do. Hey Lewis my wife wants to know-“there are about 60,000,000 unmarried women over 18 and you are unmarried—Is it them or you?”
  • Chiggenbu
    Thank you Lewis!!!!
    I am always game to support my favorite comedian. These Rant Casts make my whole week!!!
  • Fox Is the only news
    Not so funny
    His political views are so backwards that it’s impossible to find humor. Your screwed in the head
  • fannynoise
    Another good reason for living
    I’ve enjoyed Louis Black’s unique brand of humor for many years now. His take on life is awesome, as he takes no guff from stinkers, pricks or a-holes, while appealing to our better angels to be kind and generous. This podcast is another reason for living and laughing at it all.
  • Laxmom22
    Sooo happy
    This is a bright spot in my week!
  • Heismau5
    Seen him twice live.
    Lewis Black is Hilarious, he speaks the truth and him yelling just makes it funnier.
  • tiffylynn2
    twitter: tiffy_twisted (Tiffy from small town almost exactly in between of Baton Rouge and NOLA!
    Just learned who Lewis Black is, I’m 47 yr old mother of 2 & I love his view on everything! Just found his Rant and ❤️it too! Keep being you & I know you will! Surrounded by a bunch of people on the Trump Train & the divide is very real and frightening!!!!! Well guess small town has a different feel because everybody knows your name. I mentioned wanting to jump off a local bridge and people I’ve known since grade school were kind enough to offer me a ride — jj but it’s kinda of feeling like that !!!!
  • s_perk
    Just the best
    When I think I might stumble under the weight of the current failed administration, the pandemic, or the fact that 70 million morons voted for Trump, I turn to Lewis Black for sanity, comfort, and righteous indignation. His intro tonight 11/18/20 said it all. I love his humor and observations, love the rants, love this podcast. Thanks Lewis!
  • ChiefTheTool
    Love it!
    Love Lewis Black!
