Description
From gun control to climate change to preserving democracy, the litany of issues not being fully addressed keeps getting longer. And at a time when we desperately need to get on with ensuring a safe and sane future, the larger cultural and political forces in the country continue to stand in the way. Across the political spectrum leadership has taken a holiday, forced by a compromised electoral system to be more responsive to donors than to the citizens they represent. So enjoy this week's Rantcast as your host tries to find a sliver of hope in a country determined to immolate itself both figuratively and literally.
The live rants come from the Virginia Theater in Champaign IL on May 1, 2022.

#1 - The Word "Irony" Doesn't Apply: Well, we’re here with the first-ever episode of my Rantcast, even though I hate podcasts I’m doing this shit. On this episode, we roll through the Pacific Northwest to find out what really pisses people off. Turns out it’s everything from the complex, like government shutdowns, to the small, like local newspapers, and the weird, like selling out to Al Roker. Enjoy! Oh, and I’ve been recording these rants for a long, long time. So there are plenty. Prepare to sit back and relax, we've got nothing but time! Special thanks to John Bowman for appearing on this episode. by Lewis Black's Rantcast
