Happy Fourth of July! The Ranting Out Loud crew dives into the messy politics of patriotism, from debating when it’s safe to fly the American flag (without looking MAGA) to reclaiming national pride for the LGBTQ+ community. Producer Mike, Lee, and Chadrick share their thoughts on everything from fireworks-induced chaos to the evolving symbolism of the stars and stripes.

Plus, we celebrate anniversaries (congrats, Chadrick!), plug Lee’s upcoming YouTube series (Morvicti Execution is coming!), and take detours into millennial saints, political shake-ups, and the importance of reaching Gen Z voters. End your Fourth of July with a bang (and not the artillery-shell kind) as we unpack the quirks of our country with humor, heart, and a side of sass.

This week, the Ranting Out Loud crew dissects the ultimate parade fail—think fewer crowds, less flair, and squeaky tank wheels heard ‘round the world. Lee, Chadrick, and Producer Mike recap the hilarity and cringe-worthy moments of the so-called “show of strength” and the ironic juxtaposition of the No Kings protests, which turned out to be the real celebration.

From military marches lacking precision to Texas-sized solidarity in unexpected places, this episode serves up commentary with a side of snark. Plus, we dive into celebrity classiness (looking at you, Michelle Obama), Broadway buzz (yes, Jinkx Monsoon is taking over O Mary), and Lee’s upcoming YouTube debut in the Morvicti universe.

This week, the Ranting Out Loud crew tackles the chaos of Friday the 13th and beyond, with Lee, Chadrick, and Producer Mike sharing their juju-filled tales—from black cats and bad luck to theater gossip and political absurdities.

We’ll dive into the spectacle of the Tony Awards, celebrate Broadway’s brightest (looking at you, Cole Escola!), and unpack the Kennedy Center drama involving drag queens and empty seats for a certain ex-president. Plus, we rant about Trump’s Mar-a-Lago-inspired Rose Garden remodel and explore the Grammys’ very white “Traditional Country” category. #ConcreteGarden #ROL #RantingOutLoud

Buckle up for a front-row seat to the ultimate billionaire bromance meltdown: Trump vs. Musk drama, Oval Office wig-snatching fantasies, and spicy takes on Epstein files that’ll make you clutch your pearls (or your Diet Coke). We’ll also dish on the Pentagon’s trolling move to rename a Harvey Milk–honoring ship, FEMA’s budget cuts just in time for hurricane season, and whether West Wing reruns could ever prepare you for today’s political circus.

Happy Pride Month—let the festivities (and the rants) begin!

#ROL #RantingOutLoud #PrideMonth #RatFight

Happy Pride, everyone! This week on Ranting Out Loud, the gang dives into the joy and resistance that define Pride Month. Chadrick rants about rainbow capitalism and a secret weapon in your purse (WWDQD: What Would Drag Queens Do?), while Lee reminisces about the first time he saw a pink triangle on a car—and how it felt like hope. Producer Mike keeps it colorful with trivia about Pride flags, history. Whether you're flying the rainbow or the Progress Pride flag, this episode is a rallying cry for solidarity, resilience, and mandatory snark. Who are our allies, corporate or human? It really does matter. 🌈✊ #PrideWithPurpose #FlagsAndFights #StonewallSpirit

This week on Ranting Out Loud, it’s all about groceries, grifters, and good food gone hilariously wrong. From a president's bizarre grocery obsession to Chadrick’s McMinnville hospitality (and his brand-new couch narrowly surviving a denim disaster), the gang keeps it as witty as ever. Meanwhile, Producer Mike reflects on steak perfection and washing machine therapy, while Lee considers a turquoise-studded retirement in New Mexico. With a snarky dive into modern politics, absurd traditions, and all things ridiculous, this episode serves up laughs on a silver platter—medium rare, of course. 🌈🥩 #GroceriesGoneWild #TubeSteakTales #RantAndRelax

The boys are back this week, serving up snark with a side of small-town charm. Chadrick reveals his rise as the unofficial “Mayor of McMinnville,” where the barber shop doubles as a comedy club, and UFO Days are a thing. Meanwhile, Producer Mike dreams up minimum wage penalties for the rich, and Lee dives into the politics of royals, refugees, and reality TV gone wild. From board game cafés to Hunger Games parodies, this episode is packed with laughs, rants, and a few good drinks. 🍷🎲 #MayorMcSnarkville #ButterUp #RantsAndRecaps

This week on Ranting Out Loud, the gang dives into the absurdity of over-the-top bar raids during drag shows and tariffs targeting Hollywood blockbusters (because apparently, Harry Potter is a national security threat). Chadrick dishes on small-town drama with big-city snark, Lee shares a list of gay travel destinations worth the rainbow, and Mike roasts Stephen Miller’s suspicious doll collection. From politics to pop culture, this episode is a chaotic blend of rants, laughs, and some serious side-eye. 🌈🎤 #DragDefiance #TariffTantrums #RantAndRave
