Randy


Here in England, "randy" is a mildly rude word (American: horny). Back in the summer of 1976,  I arrived at The Red Raider Summer Camp near Cleveland, Ohio and was soon introduced to my assistant counsellor: Randy Fitch. To say I was taken aback would be an understatement.  The equivalent might be renaming me Horny Pudding!

Anyway, Randy Fitch is the wrong Randy. Today I want to highlight Randy Rainbow - an American comedian in his early forties. While roaming the internet, I have stumbled across him several times. He specialises in political satire - often singing cleverly reworked songs. I love his stupid facial expressions but his videos are not stupid at all, they are ingeniously put together and usually politically "en pointe" as they say in the world of ballet.

He makes Trump look like a chump. Hey, that rhymes! Here's "Forty Five" from two months back. Enjoy!


By the way Randy Rainbow is his real name - it's not made up. He does something that many other comedians fail to do - he makes me laugh! If you want to find out more about him and his comedy: Go here.

  7. I love him. His videos are actually very clever (although he does have a lot of material to work with considering Trump and Vance). There is also one with Ron DeSantis that is a scream. I agree w/Pixie: I think Randy has a lovely singing voice.

  8. I read is biography a year or two ago. This election will give him lots of material to work with.

  10. Randy Rainbow is a hoot and he has lots of funny, funny songs and his presentations are always so well done. I think his videos are popular here in the US and I see him on Instagram and Facebook all of the time. I think he just released a book...

  13. Dave LOVES Randy Rainbow. (Well, not romantically.) I don't spend much time on YouTube so I haven't seen much of this stuff but what I've seen I've liked.
