#99 - Political Spam-O-Rama
from Lewis Black's Rantcast · host Lewis Black
Lewis reports this week from New England on his day off as he’s back on the road for shows in Massachusetts, Maine and Vermont. Our host has had hit with politicians asking for donations. The constant barrage of spam emails for a wide variety of candidates is too much. How much money could these politicians even need? What did these candidates do before email? However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. The good news this week is that there’s no news! Inflation continues to do what it always does…inflates. Our host had a great week this week and it felt good for him to be back on stage working out his act. A huge thank you to all the New England crowds this weekend who came out to support. It’s banned books week as multiple libraries are sending out the “banned books” to places where those books are banned. You can’t ban books. How people grow is by reading something that challenges their thinking. Maybe next week our host won’t be so irritated as he heads to the Midwest, with stops in Ohio and Indiana. Lewis hates, but he loves you! The live rants come from this past weekend’s shows at the Academy of Music in Northampton, MA and the Lowell Memorial Auditorium in Lowell, MA. Lewis’ Grammy-nominated special, Thanks For Risking Your Life is available now! https://tlbrecords.lnk.to/LewisWE SUBMIT RANTS TO LEWIS https://www.lewisblack.com/live SUBSCRIBE TO THE RANTCAST https://www.lewisblacksrantcast.com FOLLOW LEWIS www.lewisblack.com www.youtube.com/officiallewisblack www.instagram.com/thelewisblack www.facebook.com/thelewisblack www.twitter.com/thelewisblack www.tiktok.com/@thelewisblack New episodes arrive every Wednesday.
