Summary

It’s one of those weeks where it’s almost too much to bear. In the wake of mass shootings, Louisiana issues new rules on gun control that are borderline infuriating. The rise of Measles for no good reason will make your head spin. Meanwhile Missouri Senators are debating draconian rules of engagement. If that isn’t enough, another Government shutdown is exactly what we don’t want or need right now. The week was a lot, so much in fact maintaining the proper level or rage over Alabama’s Embryo ruling going to have to wait. The rants this week come from far and wide and once again rants from the stage as Lewis made two recent stops in Detroit, MI and Waukegan, IL. RANT #1: James Muckle has a complaint about Diet Coke RANT #2: Chris Morrissey has a gun control solution RANT #3: Tyler Turner hate battery packaging RANT #4: Your Pal believes executives should be replaced with A.I. RANT #5: Pat Casey has some choice words for politicians (live from Detroit, MI) RANT #6: Shemp Rolland’s thinks people from Battle Creek are stupid (live from Detroit, MI) RANT #7: Michael Murray has some words for Congress (live from Waukegan, IL) RANT #9: Mark Werner’s rant from a year ago still holds true (live from Waukegan, IL) ___________________ For advertising opportunities email: [email protected] ___________________ TOUR DATES: http://www.lewisblack.com/tickets GET MERCH: http://www.lewisblack.com/collections ____________________ SUBMIT RANTS TO LEWIS Have something you want to get off your chest? http://www.lewisblack.com/live _____________________ SUBSCRIBE TO THE RANTCAST http://www.lewisblacksrantcast.com ____________________ FOLLOW LEWIS https://www.lewisblack.com https://www.instagram.com/thelewisblack https://twitter.com/thelewisblack https://www.facebook.com/thelewisblack https://www.youtube.com/OfficialLewisBlack Learn more about your ad choices.
