It's Easter week on Ranting Out Loud, and what starts as a wholesome debate over chocolate bunnies (solid only, please) and blowing up Peeps quickly spirals into a full-blown political resurrection story minus the miracles. Lee, Chadrick, and Producer Mike hop from neighborhood egg hunts to global chaos faster than Melania going on FOX to debunk accusations that have yet to come up.

Between candy hot takes and bunny-based nostalgia, the crew talks about today's unhinged headlines: Epstein drama bubbling back up, war rhetoric that sounds like it came straight from a supervillain audition, and an administration that treats global conflict like it's an argument on Nextdoor. Gas prices are up, midterm tea leaves are tasting good, and maybe, just maybe we'll survive another week before another civilization is annihilated then not annihilated.

Nothing says "He is risen" like rising tensions, rising prices… and rising blood pressure. 🐣

It's Good Friday, but the Ranting Out Loud crew is anything but saintly. Chadrick, Lee, and Producer Mike rise again (like Easter, but messier) to unpack a week full of political chaos, questionable firings, and delicious hypocrisy.

From misogyny in motion to officials getting axed faster than Wendy Torrance in The Shining, the gang dives into the latest administration drama, including scandalous spouses, secret fetishes, and the ongoing obsession with controlling everyone else's identity while hiding your own. Because nothing says "family values" like a closet full of contradictions.

Meanwhile, the world stage is giving "end-of-days realness" with war tensions, global disses, and America's reputation doing a death drop without a spotter.

Happy Easter, sinners. 🐣

Producer Mike sounding like latter-day Lucille Ball joins the gang covering topics from the Oscars snubbing Barbara Streisand's hairbrush, Chuck Norris dying (speak nicely of the dead — so they didn't), megachurches being the original grift, and whether your zip code is safe enough to fly a rainbow flag. Lee, Chadrick, and a very congested Producer Mike wrap up the week with equal parts theology and shade. And here's some surprising news: Mississippi is still Mississippi. 🎧 #ROL #RantingOutLoud rantingoutloud.com

It's Friday the 13th and the luck has clearly run out. Cabinet members are brought to 'heel', DOGE bros are destroying lives while fumbling deposition questions like nervous 12-year-olds, the Strait of Hormuz is basically pinched shut like a hose with zero exit strategy from the chest-thumping bros, and Timothy Chalamet is out here insulting cancer kids while dating a Kardashian. Lee, Chadrick, and Producer Mike also squeeze in a birthday toast to the iconic Liza Minnelli, the one bright spot in an otherwise clown-shoe-sized disaster of a week. 🎧 #ROL #RantingOutLoud rantingoutloud.com

From bombing Iran (sorry, "military action") out of a Mar-a-Lago ballroom to Kristi Noem getting fired mid-speech with a banner to prove it, Lee, Chadrick, and Producer Mike are barely keeping up with the crazy. Add a Texas Senate race that's actually giving Democrats hope, GLAAD awards in a world quietly scrubbing LGBTQ characters off your TV, and Pete Hegseth apparently trying to speedrun the apocalypse in Jesus's name and you've got the end of times, but made into a podcast.

This week the guys recap the longest State of the Disunion in recorded history, complete with cold White House McDonald's in exchange for gold. We've got locker-room politics, and FBI Director named Kash trying to join the cool kids by crashing a hockey victory like a drunk intern with a badge. Measles are winning in anti-vax country and the Texas primaries like a reality show called Indicted & Proud. There's more media consolidation, voter suppression shenanigans, and queer kids being written out of school libraries in Texas, trans people having their driver's licenses revoked in Kansas and not-on-purpose-but-not-censored insults at an awards show. And, we're only two months in.

This week we barrel through Texas primary drama and Ken Paxton's nine political lives. Can democracy survive people who think "indicted" is just a personality trait? Colbert blows up the FCC thanks to censorship stupidity and neighbors are apparently auditioning for "Snitches of America." Plus, olympic ladies get engaged and win gold like it's the gayest revenge tour imaginable!

It's Friday the 13th and somehow the scariest thing isn't superstition ... it's Congress. And Ring Cameras. This week the boys dive into Bad Bunny's Super Bowl cultural takeover, pearl-clutching patriots who suddenly fear subtitles, and an Attorney General auditioning for Mean Girls with a government-issued burn book. From Pride flags rising again at Stonewall to Diaper Don's fecal legacy, to a quiet farewell to a beloved TV ally, we've got you covered ... in angst.
