282 - More From The Middle 09.09.2026

280 - Rants Around The Northeast 26.08.2026

Lewis has some more fresh rants for you. These are part of a run he did across the American Northeast from Massachusetts to Maine, it's where only the strong are forged, and after hearing their submitted rants, develop a pretty mean sense of humor too.

279 - Ranting in Washington, DC 13.08.2026

Washington DC has always been a special place for Lewis, he grew up nearby and spent his formative years attending area schools and rooting for its football team. In short, it's in his DNA and others to have gripes about the area and everything it has to offer. _________________ Thanks to this week's sponsor: Factor Meals Head to ⁠http://Factormeals.com/lewis50off ⁠and use code LEWIS50OFF to get 5...

277 - Live In St. Louis 22.07.2026

Lewis brings us a special episode of The Rantcast this week fresh off a recent live appearance in St. Louis, MO. He’s taking the summer to relax, get some writing done and after this weekend seems to have made a breakthrough on the assembly of his new act. So sit back, relax, and enjoy some live rants about silly things like merch designs to more intellectual topics like voter ID laws. For adverti...

276 - We The People, Not I De Guy 15.07.2026

The major lesson learned in our 250 years on the planet is that we as a republic of people need to recognize that it is us in charge. It’s not about one man and whatever it is he might want at any given time. _________________ Thanks to this week's sponsor: IndaCloud If you’re 21 or older, go to http://www.indacloud.co and use code LEWIS for 30% off your first subscription order + free gifts and f...

275 - It's Too Fucking Hot! 08.07.2026

This Independence weekend was one of the hottest the East Coast has seen in a long time. Additionally it was a bad time for people to have issues with their Air Conditioning. Lewis had some of such issues with his building and made for a great excuse to be a bit lazy about going out and doing anything. Which is unfortunate because the city’s impressive fireworks are always fun and because it was o...

274 - Happy Birthday To Us! Oh Joy! 01.07.2026

This weekend marks our 250th birthday! A country with great accomplishments yet we’re all miserable right now. That’s not just hyperbole either, a recent poll shows that American’s aren’t feeling too patriotic at the moment. This is due to a variety of reasons, the Supreme Court continues to make bad rulings such as the recent overturning of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for immigrants in this...

273 - Memorandum of Understanding 24.06.2026

So, $132 Billion dollars and for what? If you ask certain people they might say that’s how many ways things got fucked up. The Iran war/not-war Memorandum of Understanding is already a complete disaster and how is our dear leader handling it? By simultaneously being nasty to a former president and utilizing some good ole’ fashioned deflection. In the form or reflection, pool that is. All run down...

272 - Ultimate Fighting Championship 17.06.2026

This episode of Lewis Black’s Rantcast was recorded in advance of a big weekend. Lewis was scheduled to perform in Atlantic City, NJ at the Borgata Casino. Just so happen to be the same night the New York Knicks were poised to win the NBA Championship for the first time in 53 years. That would be enough for one weekend but the next night brought more spectacle that was a UFC fight on the lawn of t...

271 - Running Out Of Adjectives 10.06.2026

The title really says it all. Lewis, like most of us, is near the end of his ability to properly describe what’s happening with our administration using words existing in the English language. ___________________________________________ This episode is sponsored by FACTOR Head to www.factormeals.com/lewis50off and use code LEWIS50OFF to get 50% off plus a free daily greens per box.

270 - I'm Sick Of It 03.06.2026

Well, it's been about a week since Lewis returned from his vacation and it only took about a week for all the nonsense to wash over him again. Is anyone else sick and tired of being sick and tired? ___________________________________________ Thanks to this week's sponsor: IndaCloud Visit http://www.indacloud.co and use code LEWIS for 30% off first subscription orders + plus a free gift for qualify...

267 - The Blue Danube 13.05.2026

Lewis is headed to Austria, Vienna specifically. It’s a place that he’s always wanted to travel to. While there, he plans on getting on a boat and taking it down the Danube river and to find out if in fact the Danube is blue. He’ll report back. ____________________ Thanks to FACTOR Meals for sponsoring this episode. Visit www.factormeals.com/lewis50off and use code: LEWIS50OFF for 50% off your ord...

266 - Sell Your Blood 06.05.2026

Are we great yet? Or are we amongst those people out there in need of having to sell some blood just to get by? Lewis learns Americans are grappling with decisions like this more and more as The Boss seems to be making millions off the Presidency. Before SCOTUS set off the latest redistricting war, Lewis was out at the Mystic Lake Casino in Minnesota for a show and that’s also where this week’s ra...

265 - More Weapons Big Ballroom 29.04.2026

Lewis had a plan this week, but the event happening at the WHCD changed up his plans. Prompting him to reflect on his time when he was asked to be a participant in these things a while back. But as we watch things fall apart in real time its important to remember… maybe it was staged?

264 - The Lewis Black Invitational Golf Tournament 22.04.2026

Lewis returns from a few days hosting his annual golf invitational which benefits The Luv U Project, a charity he works with to benefit mental health in the workplace. But he returns to a fresh list of nonsense headlines furthering driving us all off the rails. All broken down on this week’s Rantcast, give it a listen breathe a bit easier. Learn more about The Luv U Project at https://theluvuproje...

263 - We're The Civilization He's Destroying 15.04.2026

This week Lewis is out hosting his golf invitational for charity. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t things happening in the world that can enrage you. From the quagmire in the Middle East to our leader’s personal philosophy, it’s enough to make you insane. But this week we are reminded that human ingenuity is still alive and well. Because for the first time in more than 50 years we returned to th...
