Usually when someone is venting at me, I feel like I should respond somehow and say something, but I have no idea what that something could/should be. Is it better to just listen or try to comfort them in some way?

This. I try to agree along for a bit. Often, once people get it out they’re able to laugh a little, so when it gets close to the end (theirs or mine) i usually say something like, “Those MF bastards!! Do they even know who they’re dealing with?!”
