"The first time I ever really listened to Kyle Kulinski’s show was in the back of a cab last summer. The driver had his phone hooked up through the stereo and was pumping out an episode through the car speakers - loudly, as if looking to convert a captive audience.
“Do you like Kyle Kulinski?”
The driver, Ahmed, was a recent immigrant and apparently a die-hard fan of Secular Talk, the political talk show that Kulinski broadcasts on RUclips. I told him, yes, in fact. I do like Kulinski, had come across his show several years ago, and, all things considered, he seemed pretty good.
“He understands what we’re up against,” Ahmed said. “Like Bernie.”
But I was surprised to hear Kulinski’s name mentioned in the same breath as Bernie Sanders, particularly with such adoration. Because what I did remember about Kulinski’s show struck me as mostly capital-P “progressive” takes on the news - the left wing of the Netroots crowd more than the democratic socialism Sanders has popularized.
It’s an impression that wasn’t entirely incorrect.
“I have no time for philosophical, airy bullshit,” Kulinski tells me from his home in Westchester, New York. “I don’t want to hear about Lenin. I don’t want to hear about Marx. I just want a super plainspoken, straightforward agenda with a straightforward way of selling it.”
With over 800,000 subscribers and nearly 670 million total views on RUclips, selling a progressive agenda is clearly something Kulinski knows how to do - even Democracy Now, the long-standing flagship of progressive media, cannot match his reach on the platform. Chapo Trap House can certainly boast a wildly devoted fan base (and a not insignificant degree of media influence), but their audience is roughly half the size of Kulinski’s.
While Secular Talk might be more likely to be looped in with the progressive networks around Air America and Pacifica alums like Sam Seder than the more resolutely socialist world, Kulinski’s fiery rhetoric, razor-sharp class instincts, and knack for withering takedowns sets him apart from his peers. Judging by his rhetoric alone, he’s closer to a Eugene Debs than a Chris Hayes.
But unlike Hayes, Amy Goodman, or his friend Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks - who began airing Secular Talk on his web network seven years ago - the thirty-two-year-old Kulinski is virtually invisible in the mainstream media. Despite his enormous fan base, his show has never once been mentioned in the obligatory trend pieces on “the Millennial Left” pumped out by the prestige media. Nor has Kulinski’s name ever popped up at all in the New York Times, Vox, the New Yorker, New York Magazine, or the Washington Post, despite his leading role in cofounding Justice Democrats, the organization widely credited with sweeping Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the rest of “the Squad” to power.
Just last week, his Wikipedia page was deleted. The reason? “There is very simply no [reliable source] coverage of this person,” according to one moderator. In new media, he’s king - the Sean Hannity of the Berniecrat left. In old media, he’s nobody.
I suspect there are a few reasons for that. There is nothing “cool” about Kulinski’s show. (As a friend put it, “‘Welcome to Secular Talk’ sounds like something you’d hear on Egyptian radio.”) His no-nonsense social-democratic politics won’t get him much cred with the Full Communism crowd. He records his show not in Brooklyn or Los Angeles, but in a studio he built himself in his modest Westchester home. His hair is too groomed and his taste in clothes too preppy to qualify as “Dirtbag Left.” Nor has he ever attended an n+1 release party. “Not only have I not attended one,” he says, “I have no idea what that means.”
And yet he’s astonishingly plugged-in for a young man in the suburbs. Wondering how Sanders ended up on the Joe Rogan Experience? Kulinski, a frequent guest on Rogan’s wildly popular show, introduced them. “You make the most sense to me,” Rogan told Kulinski on a recent episode. “You’re a normal person.”
Much like Sanders himself, Kulinski’s show has a massive audience that just doesn’t compute with our media’s understanding of “what the kids want” or even “what the left-wing kids want.”
It’s probably for the best - the very woke and very WASP-ish decorum haunting much of the media world is nowhere to be found in Secular Talk. “Corporate Democrats over-focus on identity as a trick to divert you from the issues that unite us all - class issues,” he said on a recent episode.

Mike Pillow: From crackhead to millionaire to penniless conspiracy theorist. A true American story.
Inspirational
Fuck 🤣🤣
Makes you wonder what's the worst addiction, crack, or right-wing conspiracy theories. They both destroy families and lives
Should be a netflix documentary. They'll do one on anyone these days.
Yeah, most crack heads skip the arc where they become a successful millionaire and go straight to deranged paranoid conspiracy theorist.
"I need help..."
The only sane thing I've ever heard that man say.
😆
I 100% believe that he is a true believer, and an easy mark for the other con-artist on the right.
Absolutely
🙌🤕
Yep, agree 100.
He is a simpleton.
Breaking News: CEO wants consumers to bail them out of the consequences of their risk taking. In other news, water is wet
Breaking News: Capitalist CEO wants socialist bailout.
Imagine throwing away more money then a normal person would ever see in their lives
Elites do it all the time and no one bats an eye. FOX lost 878 million on a network that just told lies
yes my god wish I had that money, would do so much better with it
Imagine a self made man tying his wagon to a mouthpiece who was given everything from his dad and earned none of it.
It is literally the median lifetime earnings of 20 Americans. Which goes to the point we need to tax the rich they have the money and don't even know what to do with it.
@@doughooper9918 he wasn't "self made" that 40 million was earned off the labor of many many employees
I like when bad things happen to bad people.
I believe he is sincere and with his background, having lost everything several times, he needed something to latch on, unfortunately, he surrounded himself with the worst kind of conmen and grifters that will bleed him dry and bring him down.
Yep ....sincerely stupid.
ConServatives...
A fool and his money are soon parted. I think that's in the Bible somewhere.
Pro 17:16 Of what use is money in the hand of a fool, since he has no desire to get wisdom?
THAT'S IN THE BIBLE!!!!
Mike pillow is a national treasure. Not because he's right about anything but because he's absolutely hilarious 😂.
Makes sense. This is a satirical comedy channel after all.
Facts 😂
@@waltergrace565 stay salty my man
He is, except idiots believe the crap he spreads.
@@jackeagleeye3453 Word.
Oh? A crazy CEO is down on his luck? Sucks to suck.
He thinks he's broke now? Just wait until those lawsuits hit buddy. 😂
He admitted to Pakman that he spent at least $35 million. Plus the $5 million he’s trying to weasel out of paying after he lost the challenge over his “evidence”.
He has to pay 5 million, like Trump.
I wonder how much coke he's doing. He doesn't seem very sober to me.
Mike Pillow should've stayed out of politics and just stuck to his pillow business. I really find it hard to believe this is actually a real person, and even harder to believe that he ever really overcame his crack addiction.
Sometimes it seems that he traded crack for cocaine or some kind of speed.
I feel bad for him. He clearly has mental health issues. It’s funny that those around him that blame mental health for all issues in society don’t notice.
i think they use him 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 he's mentally ill.
I sincerely believe that Mike Lindell is the only person in the whole GOP that's not a grifter. I think he's just had too much kool-aid, and in a way I sorta feel bad for him. He's the only one whose not in on the con. He's like the mentally handicapped friend that everyone gets to do stupid stuff by saying "come on, we all did it when you weren't here".
I kind of feel bad for the guy, I truly believe he has been taken advantage of. He’s clearly not all there and now has lost damn near everything to these clowns.
I think you are right, and it is kind of sad really. Just like Kanye, grifters and con artists tend to revolve around them for free money.
I think he is a true believer. He's the one getting scammed by all these people that he's giving money to, to get "information" or whatever from. Another reason I think so is the whole time so far, he's been using his own money.
I think he genuinely fell for all of the lies. Almost feel sorry for him
I don't. You can give someone all the rational arguments until you're blue in the face but if they still choose to stay in their own delusion then those people just don't care about truth.
The keyword being almost.
Feel sorry for him foh hell no a lot of ppl tried to convince but he believed and pushed the nonsense like it is true that water is wet
This is the unfortunate consequence of cognitive dissonance. People don't realize that they're in over their head until it is too late generally.
Lol he is a millionaire falling for BS. He could afford the best education to get critical thinking skills and he blows it on a lie. He is proof that wealth is not an indicator of intelligence.
I have much more respect for a man, even a crazy one, who truly believes his crazy plan than a lying politician.
When that man is having meetings in the whitehouse before the election was even called at what point is he reduced to a politician too?
The lying politician in this case being the guy that lost the election but refused to accept it. Guys like Mike Pillow are just as culpable of trying to subvert the will of the voters as the orange dictator.
@@damnimloomin When he runs for elected office
I hate both.
Maybe he should go talk to Trump and ask for a few dollars
A small loan?
calls donald
*new phone. who dis?
There's going to be a movie based on this guy one day ... The Mike Pillow story
It's not often that you can honestly say "If only he stuck to smoking crack"...but in this case, you probably can
I can't feel sympathy for someone who refuses to see reality. You wanna waste your time and money on stupid junk like this, be my guest. At this point, he deserves it. Maybe this will be a good lesson and start showing him what the truth really is.
E*thanasia is what he needs
"You do it to yourself, you do
And that's what really hurts
You do it to yourself, just you
You and no one else"
I’m sure his boy Donny will repay his loyalty and pay his debt! You’ll see, he’ll buy all the shares in no time so he can help his friend 🙃
This is an example of why we need to tax the rich. Anyone who spends 40 million trying to change the results of the election has too much money in the first place and definitely can afford to pay more taxes
Sorrows, sorrows, prayers.
I don’t believe for a second that he’s still sober
Exactly!
He just switched drugs to a longer lasting stimulant
@@skeletontoes7692
Yeah. That's what I was thinking.
@@skeletontoes7692 the one that rhymes with schmeth
Any 40k fan could have warned him, crack is cheaper.
??
I'm here for this!
This should be a warning to anyone thinking of attending The National Prayer Breakfast.
Selling Securities (stocks) is not as easy as minting an NFT or making pillows. It is a highly regulated practice that only licensed brokers may engage in. IDK what exactly Mike Pillow is talking about when he says "stocks" though. Could just be another fantasy of his.
Exactly it's a scam since he will sell an unregistered security
Reminds me of Irwin Mainway
Kyle i doubt you'll see this, but I've been watching you for years, since 2015 about, and ive watched almost every video you put out since then, im currently this far back trying to catch up, my little sister died in october of last year and it was the most awful horrible thing ive ever had to go through, and i felt like i was going to split in two with how much strain was on my brain trying to reconcile with the loss, coming back to your videos is so nice and sweet to my brain bc its like a breathe of fresh air, something that makes me feel normal again, i appreciate you kyle
Welcome back Kyle! Nice hair my dude! 💪🏽
We had Ron desantis’ disaster of a campaign announcement, Donald trump finding out that his trial date is set in the middle of the election year, and now mike Lindell is broke! This has been a good week🎉
He is 100% true believer. SAD!
I don't normally delight in the misfortune of others. I'm willing to make an exception in this case.
My niece bought one of his crappy pillows. It is literally a sack of discarded foam scraps. Kudos for suckering people into paying money for other peoples trash.
I guess to each their own...we love our pillows. I have neck problems and it helps.
It is a pillow... The line from the original movie Mad Max comes to mind when Toecutter tells the boy to: "keep your big.. mouth.. shut".
He would've been better off if he had invested that money on a good psychotherapist.
Poor Pillow! Of course he's sincere. He has such an addictive personality that . . . he simply can't help himself!
Is there any evidence that he even stayed clean? I've seen MANY clips of him flying off the hinges that would seem to suggest otherwise.
He and George Santos should start a stand up act.
Rich guys mysteriously lose their money when monetary judgements are in the air.
Anybody with two fully operational eyes and a half functional brain could see this coming.
The suit he is wearing is more expensive than my entire wardrobe and furniture combined.
Maybe his audience can lend him some boot straps.
Wait, I thought it was "go woke, go broke?"
Lindel is a true believer and wasted all his money. I'm also sure that he was just giving money to anyone who made a good enough pitch and those people were just running off with the money.
I mean, "go woke go broke" is still true. Rather, what it should be is "go too political, go broke"
@Akmal Ibrahim
If your money stems from bigotry and intolerance, then you're morally bankrupt.
The “Self-Own” that keeps on “Self-Owning”
Sometimes you’re up, sometimes your down. Its only money.
No.Sympathy.Whatsover😮
The funny thing is..I’ve never heard trump mention this guy😂
kind of makes me wonder just where his voters will draw a line
I honestly considered that if Trump talked about Lindell that he would tank his own campaign. Maybe Trump thinks it would be a bad move... all the more reason to ask him about Lindell sometime before 2024
You’ve got to try his LUMPY PILLOWS. They are full of rocks, not crack rocks but given his history who knows, but the rocks that fall out of his head.
My Pillow guy is clearly a true believer.
Not a financial advisor but it'd be hilarious if people shorted his socks to oblivion
His company isn't public
Yeah, he needs help!
🎶 another one bites the dust 🎶
This is news worthy
$40 million? Most people would live a comfortable retirement off of that. I imagine that he still has a decent amount of equity in his company and he should just take it and sail off into the sunset.
A comfortable retirement? Try 10 comfortable retirements
Go Maga, go Broke? 😂😂😂😂
Famous saying: A fool and his money are soon parted...
Privatize the profits, Socialize the losses.🤔
Bought one of his pillows WAY before he got political, low key, they’re super comfortable 😂 Stick to pillow making, Unwell Lindell
His personal net worth is only 20 million
Proverbs 21:20
A fool and his money are soon parted.
Ding Dong shoulda known that.
He did for Trump, and Trump is doing NOTHING for him. Poetic.
So my pillow dude is broke, lol. This is too funny and I don't feel sorry for him.
Some former crackheads are clean, some just found a different crack
The loudness of overcompensation for entropy, the eggshells, the ego, the church mafia.
You love to see it
I thought he was just grifting but now I see he really is out his damn mind.
i think it's both, i think he genuinely believes it and he's also using it to fleece people.
He wanted to be part of something bigger than pillows and can’t handle that 15 minutes has passed him by.
At $100 a gram, Mike Pillow lost 40kg of crack.
I think he believed it at first but now he sees the grift and is trying to get his money back
See kids? This is why doin cracked is bad.... AND watching corporate media causes brain rot!
Counter point: Mike pillows is still addicted to crack. 🤠
40 million?! On what specifically?!
Crack, money laundering, hookers, you know, the usual.
And the nanosecond he gets more money, he's going to piss that away on appeasing Trump's ego as well.
"HEY GUYS, I JUST WASTED 40m$, GIVE ME MONEY, I WANT YOU TO HAVE A PIECE OF THE PIE, IT'LL BE AMAZING!!!"
ONe of the worst pitches ever... Why doesnt he ask his billionaire friend, 40mill should be peanuts for the DON
Buy My Pillow Sock-this is My Official Public Offering! They go well with my Flip Flops! Save America and Skank Geach!
Couldn't have happened to a better guy
Wait, besides My Pillow, isn't Mike selling My Slippers too?
Don’t not give in to cynicism, being cynical is easy, having hope takes courage.
There's homeless under every bridge, tree and shrub, but Mr. Moustache NEEDS HELP! Won't someone weep for the millionaires?!
Belief isn’t knowledge. I believe that mushroom is safe to eat isn’t the same as I know what kind of mushroom that is.
One of the issues that remains after he's "clean" is the paranoia.
Oh, America…
We’re great at making money and equally great at blowing it. So many examples.
I truly feel sorry for this guy, delusional disorder is no joke
When a Minnesotan looks desperate for real… he’s desperate. In the words of Jerry Lundegaard from Fargo “I’m…uhh… I’m co-operatin’ with ya! Yaaa!” (The terrified eyes say it all)
If its not SEC registered then he cant legally sell stock
If true, it is pretty ballsy of him. Remember fox tv and news were not always house-hold names.
He’ll be offering ZJ’s for rock in no time
Who in their right mind wants to buy that?????
Mike Lindell needs help- a truer statement never uttered.
Now he's selling pillows at 66% off, 1/3 of the price. So sad to see such a tremendous comeback story just to lose it all!
Jim Kramer told me it’s a sound investment
They held a pillow case over his head and stole his money,the only reason they talked to him was the money.
