I Never Promised You a Rose Garden ... With Actual Roses

Ranting Out Loud

Friday, 20 June 2025 - 28 minutes

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
