Lewis Black is one of my absolute favorite comedians of all time, a legend, and one of the nicest guys in the business. When you watch Lewis perform you never feel alone with your rage, and general disgust for the powers that be, and as it turns out talking to him for an hour is no difference. Incredibly smart, hilarious and genuine to the core it was a true joy to have him on Dystopia Tonight. We talk about the current state of the world and the morons running it, touring during covid, the "joys" of zoom shows, failed pilots, Disney, forgetting everything from names, and faces to literally what we just said a minute ago...to uh....wait, what was I saying? Oh well, anyway, check out the links below to follow Lewis Black on all social media and check out his hilarious Rant Cast where he reads rants in his inimitable fashion from fans that send them in! Enjoy!
