The Kidd Kraddick Morning Show (formerly Kidd Kraddick in the Morning) is an American ensemble morning radio show that originates out of Dallas, Texas and airs weekday mornings. The show is hosted in the Canal Side Lounge in Irving, Texas. The show's primary focus is pop culture commentary, with discussions often revolving around the previous night's reality television programming, celebrity relationships, and current affairs. The show also streams live on Livestream at Kiddtv.com. The morning show is syndicated by YEA Networks and distributed by Westwood One[1] with it broadcasting on more than 75 radio stations across the U.S. The morning show is available in an on-demand service via their own site and audioBoom. Westwood One bought the show in May 2016. [2]

On September 10, 2012, the show became a part of nationally syndicated Fox show Dish Nation.

The term KiddNation is the name the show calls their main fanbase. Some of their popular segments on the show are Tinder Tuesday, Love Letters to Kellie, Whatever Wednesday, First World Problems and Does that make me Crazy!?

From October 1, 1992 until July 26, 2013, it was hosted by Kidd Kraddick but with Kraddick's unexpected death outside of New Orleans on July 27, 2013, the show's future without Kidd was undetermined. On August 5, 2013, the show resumed live broadcasts as an ensemble program.[3] On January 15, 2014 the show's title was altered to "The Kidd Kraddick Morning Show".
