Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - March 28, 2025David Waldman delivers us to the end of the week. Anyone not detained this weekend for acts of dispatriotism can meet back here on Monday. Russia seems to use David’s random country generator to pick out its disinformation targets. Today it’s Austria! SignalGate! It turns out that you can get in a lot of trouble for accidentally adding a reporter to a group email. “You” are not, however, one of the morons on the Houthi PC Small Group chat. Those folks are in a special protected class of super-morons. The more stupidity linked to them, such...2025-03-281h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - March 14, 2025Welcome to Advanced Civics with Professor David Waldman. David’s been teaching this course since about the turn of the century, yet it seems as if there is always more to learn. Heck, I’ve been held back over this last decade, and I still don’t quite get it. Basically, the Senate is voting on the 2025 budget because maybe that’s better than not voting on it? Voting for it would piss off Elon Musk, but voting against it would piss off Donald K. Trump. It’s a quandary! Luckily for Senate Democrats, they have valiant leader Chuck Schumer...2025-03-141h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - March 5, 2025No, David Waldman did not watch the speech, or the Oscars, or the Super Bowl, all right? (The TV’s been stuck on the History Channel since David lost the remote.) Greg Dworkin is still on Skype, which is now shutting down, forcing an alternative. Greg will be choosing between Zoom or his dial-up fax machine in the basement, whichever has the most pleasant ringtone. Donald K. Trump presented his State of Denial “address”… It was a “Joint Address” to the Gops who love humiliation, and the Dems, who are learning to. Of course, some Democrats boycotted, but most did not...2025-03-051h 57
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - February 19, 2025David Waldman is not here today! But what is “here”, anyway? David recorded a brand-new show that went over by four minutes — that’s hundreds of extra words! So, he is virtually here today… but what is “virtually”, anyhow? KITM is still OG podcasting, the way they did it back in the twenty teens, none of that funny new stuff, or the funny old stuff, or any of that funny stuff, just the real stuff! (which is often funny) The Trump White House is one step away from adding a laugh track to its ICE videos. DOGE has made T...2025-02-192h 04
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - January 17, 2025Bob Uecker and David Lynch are hanging out together in Heaven’s waiting room, laughing (slowly, and in reverse, naturally), looking down as Hell freezes over so that Donald Trump can return to the Presidency. But... why are we still here though? Probably to listen to David Waldman on the Friday KITM. Don’t turn to Republicans to answer your questions, existential or otherwise. They have all the answers, just not to the questions they’ve been asked. If they told you the answer they wouldn’t have to kill you, but they’ll wish they have had killed themselves...2025-01-171h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - January 10, 2025TGIFKITM! David Waldman takes us to the weekend, and if we show up again on Monday, he’ll start all over and do it again! Donald Trump is now a convicted and sentenced felon and yet is somehow still getting away with it. Of course, he tried to get away with more, citing Irreparable Injury among other BS to the Supreme Court. OBVIOUSLY, that’s not how the Court, laws, the Constitution work! Except… It almost did. One old white guy in a robe didn’t fix things for Trump this time. Less than 10 days before he corrects that situ...2025-01-101h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - January 7, 2025David Waldman is the best at bringing us the latest on today’s KITM: As we approach our National Day of Mourning, we will need to make room for a few more things to be depressed about. We say so long to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and bienvenue to Pierre Poilievre. Some might pronounce his name one way, he might a different way. Whatever, Trump will pronounce it wrong, the US House will make it a law, and previous pronunciations will be pronounced illegal. No one is above the law — except Trump. I mean, that’s what...2025-01-071h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - January 6, 2025Is it still 2025? Man, this sucks! How can David Waldman and Greg Dworkin ever ring in the new without the old ever being wrung out? It’s the anniversary of the coup… but reminiscing about our deceased democracy isn’t polling well with the working class… so let’s all just agree that they were all heroes and forget this ever happened, okay? There are hundreds of January 6 cases still heading to trial. When Kash Patel heads the FBI, he promises there will be hundreds more. Democrats keep helping out poor people… That’s it. That’s the problem...2025-01-061h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - January 3, 2025David Waldman brings us to the first Friday and the first weekend of the year… and look who he brought with him! Distinguished Professor Ian Reifowitz is here and is well on his way to be a millionaire, or should be, considering his output of scholarly literature, including an upcoming tome on how stereotypes are used to drive political rhetoric and thus policy. the topic of which was discussed in relation to that unfortunate outcome of the recent election.

Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - January 2, 2025He’s back! Greg Dworkin has been MIA at KITM since sometime last year and had been absent half of 2025 before ringy-dingying back in like nothing ever happened. (Actually, he acted like a lot happened and was keen to tell David Waldman and us all about it.) Facts are still coming in on the New Orleans truck attack, but who needs any more facts once the perp’s complexion has been verified? And then, his mom named him Shamsud-Din Jabbar! Jabbar might have acted alone, been in the military, been born in the United States, but oh that name… Fox News...2025-01-021h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - January 1, 2025David Waldman welcomes us to 2025, a year so nasty they named a Christofacist masterplan after it. 2024 was pretty stupid, but not half as stupid as the journalists we listened to, nor half as stupid as they will be. The vibe for the year was set early on Bourbon Street in New Orleans when a driver, or at least his pickup truck, killed and injured dozens. Later, his weapon discharged, then police discharged theirs, and the resulting corpse will be charged with terrorism... of course. Obviously, that is a “terroristic” act, like shooting a CEO, and should be treated as...2025-01-011h 57
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - December 31, 2024David Waldman is about done with 2024 but isn’t that into 2025. Maybe we can find an alternative? KITM World Headquarters uses pure green energy from the plutonium stored in the core of our volcano lair, but for the many who do not have that luxury, the nationwide power grid is under tremendous strain as AI data centers suck up huge amounts of power and distort the normal flow of electricity for millions of Americans. Eliminating federal regulations would not seem to be the way to go, but here we are, eager to become serfs to a mad king as long a...2024-12-311h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - December 30, 2024David Waldman is back today, eager to devote no time at all to the brewing Beyoncé controversy. Has there been a better president than Jimmy Carter? Or a better Christian? Husband? Person? Jimmy Carter saved people from nuclear cataclysm. Jimmy Carter saved people from parasitic onslaught. Jimmy Carter saved people from the weather. Jimmy Carter was the best, which is of course, what a lot of people had against him. The thing is, mediocrity has much more leeway than greatness, so much more flexibility in terms of self-respect and ethics… and strength in numbers. Now look wh...2024-12-301h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - December 26, 2024Happy holidays! Have yourself a merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, winsome Kwanzaa, and a rip-roaring Boxing Day listening to David Waldman on today’s KITM. It’s Beyoncé's world, but she will allow us to be entertained by her. It’s Trump’s America, and he will allow us to have a democracy for as long as it pleases him. He will even allow God, as long as he gets a piece of the action. The 119th Congress will be a lot like the 118th, except that the president is a sociopathic megalomaniacal dictator wannabe, and his buddy D...2024-12-261h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning "Encore Presentation" - December 23, 2016, airing December 25, 2024David Waldman did not present KITM “live” this morning. He presented a special “live-like” pre-recorded KITM, but he presented it in 2016, the last Christmas on which we faced the unknown of a looming Trump term in office. And as we asked then, hey—what better way to address the unreality of the media world that created the character moving into the White House? The Apprentice seemed to be “reality” simply because it was labeled as “reality TV”, and originally the show, and the character of “Donald Trump”, were designed as comedy. Once audiences started believing the “reality” of “The Apprentice”, and “Donal...2024-12-252h 00
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - December 24, 2024David Waldman didn’t write the rules, but he might be the last one to remember what they all are. Christmas has come early for Trump. Billionaire Secret Santa rules are simple: bring a million bucks. Also, it’s no secret who’s playing Santa this year. Donald can sit on Santa Musk’s lap all he wants, but the naughty boys and girls who threaten Santa’s elves in China will find a primary challenge in their stockings. Musk expects Trump to immediately fire all non-essential employees and rehire them over at DOGE. The Trump doctrine (aka, Se...2024-12-241h 56
Kagro in the MorningKagro in the Morning - December 23, 2024Political chaos meets holiday chaos this week. We will have Christmas Eve, then Christmas, and Hanukkah, then Boxing Day with David Waldman battling contender Jake or maybe Ron Paul, then Friday… and that’s almost the weekend! So who knows what could happen? Our transcendent question this week: Which Superman is the greatest? It is, of course, Kirk Alyn, obviously. However, it seems that 30 million nerd-ragers beg to differ. Nothing drives engagement better than an argument, therefore it was inevitable that the solution and cause of all of our future problems, Artificial Intelligence, would soon be dispatched in the form of...2024-12-231h 56
