Fireworks, Flags and F***! Is He Still Alive?

Ranting Out Loud

Friday, 4 July 2025 - 28 minutes

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.
