While this brand of dry satire may not be for everyone, In the Know is a laugh-out-loud, stop-motion skewering of public radio and the well-meaning-but-ultimately-performative woke. To be clear, it’s not a takedown of wokeness, but of the super-far-left individuals who say and believe all the right things while obliviously doing the complete opposite. For example, Lauren Caspian (Silicon Valley’s Zach Woods) is the type of guy who will forcefully talk over every woman in the room to let them know he understands how they feel when men talk over them. Show co-creator Mike Judge has always been a hitmaker, and that seemingly hasn’t changed.
