December 10th, 2025 The Morning Ride

You’ve heard him for the past 14 years as a KVI voice on The Commute with Carlson and now Phil Vandervort takes over as the host of KVI’s Morning Ride. Join Phil and his producer, Zach Wildfang, every weekday morning from 6-9, to bring you the day’s first insight into the top local and political stories that impact your life, your town and your wallet so we can Make Washington Livable Again. The Morning Ride is fast-paced, filled with guest interviews from local leaders and politicians along with nationally respected voices like economist, Steve Moore, to give you unique insight that you won’t hear anywhere else.

Phil Vandervort is a life-long Puget Sound resident. Born in Tacoma and living in Seattle since 1994, Phil has worked in Seattle talk radio since 1997 at Seattle’s biggest stations and with Seattle’s most well-known talk show hosts like John Carlson and the dearly departed, Dori Monson and John Clayton. Phil and his wife have been married for 26 years and have a 17-year-old son. Off the air, Phil’s interests include finding new bands and music, playing bass guitar, going to local concerts (has he told you about The Sheepdogs?), staying healthy with exercise that’s easy on the knees--especially snow skiing--and grilling meat.
