RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) If you are just waking up you’ve got 25 pages of must reading to do. Nah, lay back down, they printed it mostly sideways… In fact, go ahead and close your eyes. As always, David Waldman is here to read the important parts to us: Gym Jordan told us Kurt Volker’s deposition undercut Donald Trump’s impeachment case. The released deposition however undercut Gym Jordan’s, and Trump’s believability, spelling out ...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) BULLSHIT! Can you think of a better word for this administration at this time? It’s the subject of most of today’s news, in fact.  David Waldman and Greg Dworkin present a bullshit-free KITM, that is yet somehow completely full of it: Jacob Wohl contains no other ingredients. He’s found some guy more shameless than himself, who he will introduce to the public today. Donald Trump frantically, and I mean fr...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) It’s a scum of the earth gold rush! William Barr, John Durham, Sebastian Gorka, Mike Pompeo are in Italy with Steve Bannon panning for scum. Rudy, Mooch, Huckabee, Schlapp and other two-bit conmen keep mining the scum in Ukraine, in hopes that it hasn’t been completely tapped out.  Of course, this did not start in Ukraine. Of course, it started in Florida. David Waldman isn’t here today, but pretended he was...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Dearest Abigail, so much has come to pass since our last correspondence—I was made almost deaf from the bombshells that pinned back Ol’ Bonespur’s troops as of late! Shall the battle of Ukrainium One be that “Great Pivot” all have talked about? Surely... only time, David Waldman and Greg Dworkin can tell us of this: William Barr, Mike Pompeo, and Rudy Giuliani scour the world in search of dirt on absolut...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) David Waldman, as an observant podcaster, is out celebrating International Podcast Day, and we hope a good and sweet Rosh HaShanah. Of course, he pre-recorded a brand-new KITM for today. We can’t miss one of those in these crazy times! How crazy? How about the whistleblower requesting federal witness protection from the US President, who is “into having Democrats executed, and threatening Civil War” kind of cra...

September 27, 2019 16:24 - 1 hour - 53.3 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) How serious is the impeachment situation? So serious that Greg Dworkin was back again for yet another special edition of KITM. On a Friday! We kicked things off with a quick tour of the newspaper headlines, and then moved quickly into the latest polling and analysis, which now includes both post-whistleblower and post-Pelosi shift data. As you might imagine, Ukraine-mania is driving the Fox News types over th...

(Note: A big thank you to the Washington DC scandal production staff for placing their super crazy stuff in the morning per our request, but for our cross-promotion to work, the “As predicted on KITM” bug will need to appear on the lower right after each break.) It’s all moving fast. David Waldman and Greg Dworkin catch us up on the latest news, while we all watch news in the making today. Yesterday, the Whi...

September 25, 2019 16:35 - 1 hour - 53.2 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) David Waldman, Greg Dworkin and Joan McCarter have a lot to cover on today’s KITM. 90’s clothing and t-shirt politics, the Philadelphia Eagles and fire-fighting heroes, medieval vs. Renaissance expertise snark… Oh, and some MFer’s getting an impeachment inquiry! Im-🍑y!  Well, Nancy Pelosi did have something up her sleeve! Or, maybe good timing. Or, this was the last straw. However it got here, the impeachme...

September 24, 2019 16:49 - 1 hour - 53.2 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Welcome! David Waldman and Greg Dworkin have been hanging around over on the far shore of the Rubicon for a while now. Nice to see this morning’s turnout. Donald Trump is still trying out a few stories, but it just keeps getting worse for him. Trump shut down aid to Ukraine before calling, to make sure they knew he meant business. John Lewis gets behind impeachment. Republicans get out from behind Trump. ...

September 23, 2019 16:10 - 1 hour - 53.2 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) 140 weeks of Donald Trump’s asterisk Presidency. For such an asterisk, he is a real mess, and yet really hard to stop. Is it time to open an inquiry into whether to open an inquiry into whether it would be okay to say the “I” word? Or maybe not? David Waldman and Greg Dworkin’s inquiring minds are ready to tackle all of the above, but first the “P” word… prorogation.  The UK will decide this evening, or their m...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) David Waldman quit using his vocal spray right after the crew added alum to the bottle and his head temporarily shrunk to the size of a golfball... Oh well, his cough is back, but so is David with a special “One Focus Friday” edition of Kagro in the Morning: Today’s subject is “Donald Trump and treason”, which by the way is almost always the subject. In fact, this particular act of treason will be familiar to D...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) It’s Talk Like a Pirate Day again? So soon? Maybe it is in any month with an Arrrr in it… Avast, David Waldman’s no scurvy dog, savvy? Therefore, well, uhm… “Arrr!” Who would be dumb enough to not predict that Donald Trump would say something inappropriate to a foreign leader that would be considered gravely "urgent" by an Intelligence Community Inspector General... even an acting one? The only debate is who ...

September 18, 2019 16:03 - 1 hour - 53.2 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) I have no obligation to “summarize” today’s KITM with David Waldman, Greg Dworkin, and Joan McCarter. Okay, it’s right there in my contract. (I would have, anyhow): It makes you wonder what obligations Sean Spicer felt to forever trash his self respect and public image on… oh yeah, he did that years ago. Corey Lewandowski spent 6 hours in front of the House Judiciary Committee lobbying hard for the reimple...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Hmm. Yesterday, the Russians sort of Chernobyled their virus research center containing Ebola, Smallpox, Bird flu, Hepatitis... etc. They assure us that it’s all cool, nothing to worry about… cough, cough. Well, for the moment as our coughs remain sarcasm-full and blood-free, we should just relax, sit back and listen to David Waldman present an in-depth KITM analysis of the latest news: Impeachment! Oh, d...

September 16, 2019 15:57 - 1 hour - 53.3 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) A new week, a new day, and KITM and David Waldman and Greg Dworkin return. Unfortunately, a lot of 2016 and 2018 followed them in: Brett Kavanaugh returns to the news. Actually, more witnesses are finally being heard. The New York Times sees some harmless penile face-thrusting. Donald Trump sees the New York Times’ penis. The FBI help keep the real dick out of sight.   Should Democrats be concerned by ...

September 13, 2019 15:25 - 1 hour - 53.2 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Friday the 13th, and a full micro moon? In the middle of the last palindrome week of the century? Don’t worry, this is your lucky day!  First up, always a crowd pleaser, you get several minutes of David Waldman attempting to pronounce foreign names in a foreign order... David did not watch the Democratic debates last night, but lucky for him and us, he knows someone that did. At the debate, Beto O’Rourke said...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) David Waldman and Greg Dworkin... what are those guys vaping? Well, pretty soon only criminals will be using e-cigarettes. It looks as if Barron Trump’s mom, Melania caught him vaping, so now no one can. Sorry to those out there with a big investment in vaping hardware or politicians. Anyhow, they really aren’t that good for you, in fact, Greg never once prescribed them. Here comes the new “mini” three-hour ...

September 11, 2019 17:12 - 1 hour - 53.2 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) September 11. A day of remembrance, on which “balanced coverage” of Donald Trump will make us physically ill. Avoid the mainstream media for a while, and hang out with Wednesday’s KITM crew, David Waldman, Greg Dworkin and Joan McCarter: The Republicans did not lose in North Carolina by 2 points. Now, they have to worry about the 35 seats that are less Republican. Oh, well. They still have lying, stealing an...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) David Waldman scoops up the news items that fell about during yesterday’s news-plosion for further study, adding a few new bits to see if we can catch up before another big show tomorrow: Donald Trump lied about voter fraud in California ahead of an election in North Carolina necessitated by Republican voter fraud. Trump lied about his involvement with Glasgow Prestwick Airport after bragging about it. The Ma...

September 09, 2019 16:00 - 1 hour - 53.3 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Well, that was a busy weekend! Our know-nothing, do-nothing President did not think or do a thing at Camp David, as usual, and yet things seem to keep getting worse because of him. David Waldman takes the busy weekend and makes it into a busy morning for KITM listeners: Donald Trump said something really stupid. A day or two after this? Something even more stupid. The Trump dynasty already has its game o...

September 06, 2019 16:01 - 1 hour - 53.3 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Hip deep in the churning waters of storm-ravaged Alabama, David Waldman broadcasts a live… Wait, what? ...It’s been cancelled? About a week ago? But... the Admiral said… Okay...  Listen, it’s just a theory, but David believes this Alabama thing just might be linked to Donald Trump’s lazy, self-centered, sociopathic, idiotic dotardiness… which Donald believes he has kept a secret so far.  Well, in case Trump al...

September 05, 2019 16:19 - 1 hour - 53.3 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) David Waldman diagnoses the US with a bad case of the mumpsimus and the only prescription is more KITM: Donald Trump might have to nuke Alabama to protect it from hurricane Sharpie. You see, Trump’s map was altered with Trump’s favorite pen for who knows what reason... The map he followed that with used all the crayons in the box. Sarah Sanders is set to release her Sharpie-ing of history just before the ...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) It’s Wednesday on KITM! Greg Dworkin and Joan McCarter brought so much today that David Waldman barely had time for trenchant observations and piercing asides: Order, ORDER! An historic rebel victory in Britain as Conservative MP Phillip Lee crosses to the light side of the House of Commons... Chaos! Which is kind of okay, at the moment, as Greg explains. Chaos! Which sucks here, as Greg has been explaining...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) David Waldman welcomes us to yet another KITM special “Dystopian Tuesday” edition: Here’s an idea! Instead of gun control, we put a chip in everybody… Wait! Even better, we sell everyone the chip, gamify their surveillance, and they in turn beg us to take their money to fund our systematic tightening of control… Bwahahaha! Of course, that very software may already be installed in our devices, but just not ...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Labor Day—Dorian slams the Bahamas, Donald Trump hits the links... Of course he needs to, to keep his figure... unlike that Tiffany for instance! (FYI, she’s the Trump not blessed with ample birthing hips) David Waldman is out doing something, but before that, he did this KITM. Me? Well, I guess I will write a summary: Dorian is the fourth category 5 hurricane to threaten the United States since Trump has tak...

August 30, 2019 16:17 - 1 hour - 53.2 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Friday, one last KITM David Waldman will put in for the Man before the Labor Day weekend… Nah, he’ll probably stay up late tonight making a show for Monday, that apple-polisher. Labor Day hurricane Dorian might keep Donald Trump from doing what he wants, but it can’t make him work. He’ll have somewhat less assistance now that his longtime executive assistant crossed the line into being his ex-executive assis...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) It’s Wednesday! You get a KITM with David Waldman, Greg Dworkin and, Joan McCarter! What more can you ask for? Nothing! Quit asking for stuff! We spoil you enough as it is: Donald Trump aims his nukes at tropical storm Dorian, then Puerto Rico, then back to Dorian…  all distracting him from browsing Pinterest for wall decoration ideas, and attending to that big stack of old Russian loans and future pardons...

August 27, 2019 16:37 - 1 hour - 53.2 MB

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Did you catch the Taylor Swift concert last night? Well, you should have, because she said something political, therefore it was a political rally. Actually, she said something moral, which by definition makes it an anti-Trump rally. IMO, Lizzo and her Trump balloon were the best show by far. David Waldman’s yurt up in the Virginia mountains doesn’t get “TV,” only Twitter, so he missed the VMAs. At least he do...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) It’s my birthday! And yesterday was David Waldman’s! Hooray! We’re still raking all of the Solo cups out from under the couches here at KITM World Headquarters... but well, now it’s time to get back to work. (Hey Armando, we saved you a piece of cake.) Donald Trump proposes a 25% tariff on Hurricanes? A wall? Nope! Those are just dumb ideas. Donald wants to nuke ‘em... a really bad, dumb idea. So bad, e...

Take some time out from watching the world burn and check out David Waldman and Friday’s KITM : Schools are being designed like first person shooter games, and lots of people think they’re first person shooter-heros. But, they aren’t. Real life is hard. Donald Trump lies about what time of day it is—just for the practice. The Proud Boys spend their time wasting ours. When Nancy Pelosi returns to power in ...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Hump day! Well, it is the hump of this week, as KITM got a late start at things. As usual, Greg Dworkin visits, ready to boost David Waldman and us over any hump, even our truncated ones: There’s no guarantee that Trump will lose, but he absolutely is a loser. Coal miners see that. Farmers see that. Truckers see that. The economically anxious see that. Those people are beginning to see the forest for the trees....

And, Joan McCarter!  We find out this morning that Donald Trump... is the … the King of… of the… Wow. If this is a test from God, you just got to hope she grades on a curve... King Donald wishes Jewish Americans were just a little more devout, however. Donald Trump also had a “spat” with Denmark... well more of a “sn...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Soooooo… we didn’t make it back on the air for a new show today. But the good news is that I was totally a responsible parent, and everybody can feel good about that! We’ll be back on Wednesday. And school starts again on Thursday. So things should be relatively stable soon, and even a little quieter! In the meantime, please enjoy our August 22, 2018 episode, with both Greg Dworkin and Armando on hand to take...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) A year ago, KITM World HQ was in upheaval, working through an AC replacement. A year later, we're still in upheaval! Granted, there hasn't been construction every day since then. In fact, there almost never has been. But purely by coincidence, there's noisy and disruptive stuff happening again, anyway. Looking forward, as we are, to coming back, let's reminisce about that last time we came back. David Waldman...

To pass the time, please enjoy this vintage episode, from one year ago. A simpler time, when Donald Trump was a jerk-ass moron: David Waldman introduces a new paradigm in disruptive innovation: a “web-enabled” system capable of transferring David’s unique thoughts and emotions, opinions and facts, directly to you, almost instantly, or at any tim...

Light demolition work is scheduled here at Kagro in the Morning World Headquarters for this morning. David Waldman was set to broadcast the first half hour of the show naked on a wrecking ball, but that was voted out as a “dated pop reference.” He’s still going to do it mind you, just not on the air, as he instead recorded a special international edition of KITM for release today: We start in the US, with Mosco...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Greg Dworkin informs us that Trump’s heading into some headwinds in his re-”election” bid, a difficult prospect aerodynamically-speaking, when your head’s empty to begin with, and covered in lichens. He’s in trouble in the suburbs. He’s in trouble with women. He’s even in trouble with his vaunted use of identity politics. But he is winning in terms of corn (though he probably thought they said porn), even if the ...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) David Waldman and Armando celebrate the 8th anniversary of Kagro in the Morning! (Me too, although my character doesn’t show up until late in season 4, shortly after the switch to color.) David dreams of San Francisco graham crackers. Armando dreams of liberty and inclusion for the least empowered among us. If Ken Cuccinelli believes he has half the fortitude and resolve of any immigrant, he’s dreaming. Donald ...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Greg Dworkin ascended Mount Denali, descending a fortnight later to confront wickedness and depravity, and bearing polling of all sorts. David Waldman, and we, rejoice: It’s hard to find any stiff-necks in Iowa, no matter how hard the press tries. The Suburbs are fleeing Donald Trump, but where are they going? Moderate Dems might be the ones to watch in 2020. Child solicitor Jeffrey Epstein didn’t quite ...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) It’s already Friday! We have a news backup at KITM World Headquarters, but don’t worry, David Waldman has the tools to snake it loose. Stand back! In El Paso, Donald Trump needed to find someone who trafficked in children for a couple photos he wanted to take. Seems Melania knew a guy. Other El Paso victims with better developed motor and verbal skills successfully evaded the Trump photo ops. Yesterday, a h...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Thursday! Greg Dworkin would be here, but he remains out, up in the Yukon somewhere. He’ll be back with a carousel full of slides to share on Monday’s show. In the meantime, David Waldman is solo at the KITM microphone: Incredible dotard Donald Trump basked in the incredible respect and incredible pride for “Trump” in those two incredible, amazing places he went to with incredible heroes who say “Sir, we are s...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Wednesday is “Joan McCarter Day” on KITM, which pretty much obligates her to make an appearance. And so she did, calling in to assist David Waldman in discussion of the latest news: Republican pearls were clutched over Joaquin Castro’s hateful and partisan rhetoric… publically relaying public information that implied some people might actually like Donald Trump. (Joaquin is the brother of presidential candidat...

It killed in rehearsal, however David Waldman was forced to cut KITM’s cold open featuring small kids and 30-50 feral hogs to assure you a full hour and 58 minutes of nuanced analysis: At least 31 killed in US weekend mass shootings. Only days after some golf, some partying, and a little more golf, Donald Trump closes in on his chief suspect... Well, that would be “Twitter Trump”, who happens to be so stupid h...

RadioPublic|LibSyn|YouTube|Patreon|Square Cash (Share code: Send $5, get $5!) Today, Donald Trump read his president speech from a teleprompter, calling Dayton “Toledo”...  While we await that presidential optics check from Todd, Cillizza et al., David Waldman meets us under the cloud under a cloud, under 250 more clouds of a mass shooting this year: Donald says white supremacy and racism pull the gun on the trigger of the hate that has no place in America, therefore we should restrict v...

David Waldman sends us into the weekend with his usual Friday panoply: The CEO of Overstock was on a nice little weekend peace hunt at a libertarian convention and just ended up having sex with Maria Butina. No surprise there... it happens. But then the FBI wanted him to do it again, and that is where he draws the line.

David Waldman wanted to have an in-depth discussion of last night’s Democratic presidential debate, but would be, as per KITM rules, held to 480 fifteen second rebuttals.
