"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.

Let’s talk more about Jon Stewart than Bill Maher
Agreed but some things are so stupid you can't leave them alone
One comedian is our countries greatest reporter, the other "comedian" is the anti-reporter.
Agreed, Bill hasn't done anything for the American people but spit in their for not being as awesome as him. Jon has repeatedly called out the elites in government and business for their shitty behavior.
That would be nice
No
These same corrupt politicians have the audacity to lecture people. Shame on them
They do it to distract. The best form of defense is offense.
@@SamuraiKage-iv3ow Definitely, they are always blaming people for whatever stupid thing and at the same time they are the biggest criminals.
he is the same senator that is funded by the Cuban American lobby that supports regime change in Cuba.
@@adilwebdev2348 They aren't criminals, they wrote the laws so that when they do it it's legal!
@@scottthewaterwarrior you absolutely right when they do it it's perfectly legal but if we do it then it becomes illegal.
Jon Stewart never misses. 🎯
It’s not even corruption anymore. Just the standard American way.
We need to stop allowing it with our approval (vote) every four years. End this ridiculous corrupt corporate duopoly.
@@Don.M. We had a chance. January 6 was that chance.
@@VoiceOfTheEmperor Jan 6 was actually a con job to give these crooks power permanently to where they never need to win elections again. You don't choose a mafia don to save you from corrupt cops.
@@VoiceOfTheEmperor lol really, choosing the more corrupt seems like a sure to forward
@@VoiceOfTheEmperor you the same type of people to claim trump is not part of the establishment when he was president for 4 years
The left supposed to be the left but the left is actually the center. 😳
Democrats and Republicans are both on the right now.
There is no left there is no right, there is only them and us.
correct. bernie is a moderate in EU.
@@Michael_Dominic What i've been thinking
Has anybody seen Nancy Pelosi challenging Winston Marshall at the Oxford Union debate?
That part when he says “I don’t think I like Jon Stewart anymore “ was a shot at the resistance liberals that melted down over his first show
No he's making fun of stoners like Kyle.
Jon Stewart is too *BASED* for this world ❤
What does based even mean?
@@joeb134it basically means he's awesome.
When Jon brought up Martha Stewart, I literally shouted at the monitor, "Thank You!"
Fuckin' Christ, I swear. She served Club Fed prison time for "Insider Trading" and the goddamn Congress does that now as a matter of course. It's fucking putrid. (I'd say "sick" but that can sometimes, you know, be a positive, so fuck saying "sick")
The corruption in DC is absolutely shameful… like do these representatives actually have morals?
When the Corporate State owns and runs the State, that is *fascism*
So said Benito Mussolini
What are morals?
Their morals were bought and paid for. Don't worry.
@@matthewtaylor3347 They are those things you can buy with superpac dollars and ski trips.
No
Kyle and Jon Stewart collab would be epic
Stewart was on Breaking Points a few years ago I would love to see him on KK&F podcast 😮
America should go full Vietnam on corruption lol.
China and Vietnam are so far ahead in that aspect
Would never happen. The Plutocrats "representing" us answer to the American Oligarchs who actually run this country. The inmates are running the asylum and will never police themselves.
@@Oborowatabinostk Is China?? They have a president for life which equals dictator perpetuum! Talk about corruption! 🤣
*"Remember guys!!* Jon Stewart is happy and healthy and is NOT thinking about self-deletion!!"
They’re gonna say “after Stewart attempted the down the stairs bit, it ruptured an artery in his leg and he passed shortly after”
I enjoy skiing.
You and Jon Stewart are the best leftist voices out there.
I like Kyle but he isnt near the level/tier of Jon Stewart
The GOAT
If you had any real democratic backbone you would know RFK is doing what you wish Jon Stewart did.
@@pipz420Agreed, I definitely wish Jon would run for the presidency. RFK can otherwise kick rocks, the loon.
@@nonononononononononono The only loon is the ones spreading that rubbish.
@@pipz420The loon is looney for Israel.
Jon Stewart is on fire 🔥.
Thank you for showing this episode of Jon Stewart.
Kyle, the reason you see this coming from a comedian and not CNN is that we are seeing, in real time, a living example of the historic court jester speaking truth to power thru comedy.
Comedians have long told the truth more than these so-called “journalists.”
Because the "news" are part of the corruption.
For real they were actually surveys taken over a decade ago when The daily show in Colbert report were still on that seem to show that people were far more/better informed watching these shows than watching shows like Fox News. And of course add on to all of the misinformation Fox News viewers get the reality is have been warped for a long time. Literally too many lies to correct so they will all die believing ridiculous BS@@nas84payne
Comedians, not politicians, not religious leaders, not business leaders, but comedians, have become the moral compass of our nation. Which is as it should be, because our nation has become a joke.
Absolutely! I’d laugh if the damage they do wasn’t so devastating….
And RFK is the only one fighting back against that corruption.
@@pipz420Jill Stein as well, even more so.
@@jonathanmilo Maybe in some ways but I support RFK's policies more.
@@pipz420 Understood
There's a reason why white collar criminals (fraud, corruption etc.) aren't penalised as much or as severe: classism (and self-interest). It is ironic though that certain people ascribe rights to property and businesses but when fraud or corruption is committed they generally let that slide.
There's a reason Jon Stewart is the most trusted news source, according to a Time Magazine poll
How are you supposed to beat this WITHOUT starting an armed revolution? That's what I want to know.
Because our military is so bloated that it scares the entire WORLD.
Kyle you gotta watch the boys with Krystal
pause
John Stewart is from Jersey
You live in an empire. You don't tell power what it can do. Just be glad they don't hunt you for sport, yet.
What was the covid scam then?
Isn’t Capitalism fun/effed up.
A system that nets the greatest amount of wealth, freedom and comfort for the smallest amount of people isn’t ideal??! 😮
We don’t have capitalism in America… what makes you think our system is capitalist? It has elements of capitalism, socialism, and corruption all mixed together. Capitalism is a free market system. Once the economy is rigged to favor certain companies that give donations that’s no longer capitalism.
capitalism? you live in techno-feudalism. these people are just paid off cogs in a machine
I have to be careful not to love Jon too much. It’s hard not to when his commentary is SPOT on. This system of governance is f***ed.
Unironically wouldn’t mind John Stewart as president with Bernie.
And now you can understand why I am voting for RFK.
@@pipz420 pffft...
Bernie had proved himself to be a shill and a pushover after the rigged primaries in 2016 and 2020 when he didn’t push back at all
@@pipz420 Because of Brain Worms?
No no no.
Keep him free.
I agree that corruption should be punished as one of the most sever crimes
"United Corporations of America"
In malay, they call the US - "Amerika Syarikat" which actually also means the same thing.
America Incorporated.
When I worked for a bank every stock transaction I made had to be monitored just in case I glimpsed some insider information while administrating databases, but the leaders of our nation can not only do insider trading, but literally pass the laws that impact the stocks.
Not only would everyone in a free market have the same access to the same information at the same time, they’d also have the same ability to influence the market as members of Congress do.
If we say, “Well, it’s the free market”, that wouldn’t fly and we’d be punished for it. But these politicians can get away with it.
Jon Stewart is an American fucking Treasure!!!
Based John Stewart!
He should run for president someday 💙
My father was born during the depression and would hoard cash. So emotional support gold bars is not too far off from certain psychosis.
I like the idea of a constitutional amendment to ban corruption, but you’d have a better chance building a snow fort on the sun
Not when the corporate oligarchy own the USA
@@bobbafett1849 Corporations don't own literal armies. You could just buy some FMJ rounds and barge into the front desk and prevent people from leaving via the elevators or stairwells.
Oh this was a great bit!
"Comedian on Comedy Central" you be careful talking like that about a future president.
Hot take: The Citizens United court decision is more damaging to the US than Plessy v. Ferguson and the Dred Scott case
Easy to believe if you aren't black.
It was a brilliant piece. Again. But it will make no difference. You can't shame those with no shame. American politicians don't care about anything except themselves.
Forever the GOAT
Jon Stewart and Bill Burr is the ultimate presidential ticket.
can Bernie be Secretary of State ?
@@interdimensionalsteve8172 don’t talk dirty to me 🍆
@@interdimensionalsteve8172 Jamie Raskin house Speaker?
Robert Menendez has to go he is a disgrace to this country
They all need to go. Their all a bloody disgrace!
Saw this the other day. I’m Irish, so not really familiar with these people, but this was hilarious, and simultaneously spot on politically. Brilliant. Loved the Sopranos bit. And “ How Dumb is You ?” 😂😂😂
We really are living in the Second Gilded Age... And Jon Stewart is the new Mark Twain.
9:14 -- Kyle, I think Jon himself said it once: "Since Medieval Times, only the Court Jester has gotten away with criticizing the King."
His segment was so incredible, and so needed. Jon Stewart is the MVP of Leftism right now. He's on fire.
Too funny yet too sad.
Thanks for sharing.
Just look at what they do with oligarchs and politicians like this in Vietnam. Like sane, rational people who value the future of their children and grandchildren.
It wouldn't surprise me if this issue of corruption will ultimately lead to the downfall of the US. Maybe not in a year, or ten but some day. I hope I'm there to see it!
Martha Stewart has to be pissed.
An actual blatantly socialist comment I posted on John’s Stewart’s channel went as a top comment once a month ish ago lol.
No one cares
@@Greenskies321 #OkayBoomer
It took a comedian to show the corruption, which commercial media won’t touch. That’s right Kyle
7:39 -- "Because they will never vote to reform the system that put them into power in the first place." -- _Yes, Prime Minister_
YES!!👏🏻
Love you Kyle! This is crazy!
Some how we have to find away to change it..
When our lawmakers are the ones enriching themselves off the corruption do we really expect them to give a flying fark that the rest of us struggle paycheck to paycheck?
Thousands? That doesn't sound like much for an ultra wealthy person. Does he actually have gold bars at home? If so, that's not "thousands." That's probably tens of thousands at a bare minimum.
Loving Jon Stewart every time
Great channel man. I've been watching your videos more and more lately and it’s been great stuff.
No shit. Jon did this on Monday. Many channels I respect like you covered it the very next day. Hopefully you'll talk about the debates on Friday. 🙏
Thom Hartman discusses this and more quite a bit for a long time in depth.
Gotta puff that vape! 😂😂😂
Damn, son
As someone who lived in NJ for a few years I can vouch the Sopranos are very true to life. Not to say everyone there is criminal.... or at least not everyone is getting caught.
Where can I go to get my cartoonist bag of money for my vote?
Imagine Jon Stewart as president, doing speeches/addressing the nation like he does the Daily Show. Calling out congress people, governors and so on in this manner.
He'd be so effective!
There is very little of that fabric left in America.
Thanks!
Depressing. Teddy Roosevelt is flipping in his grave! Appreciate the content! Jon Stewart for pres with Raskin as VP! 💯
I've said this for decades, and I was mocked by both sides of the aisle. Jon was NEVER a leftist. He was a moderate with a few leftist leanings that wants YOU to think critically about every issue.
Yes he knows the government is necessary, but he ALSO knows that you need to remind said government that they ONLY exist because of the people.
Jon's mentality is one of the most terrifying things any politician anywhere can imagine: inform yourself, discuss things with a cool head with your fellow neighbor, and vote with an informed state of mind.
Remember everyone, its fine for the government to live in a glass tower above us. But don't forget to write a letter everyday to them about our fancy BRICK COLLECTION.
It should be treated as treason.
Your take on the severity of corruption isn't all that controversial. The 8th and 9th circles of Hell in Dante's Inferno are reserved for Faud, and Treachery, containing those who were responsible for the progressive disintegration of every social relationship, and who betrayed kin, and countrymen. It makes me sad that it doesn't actually exist.
Pay Congressmen $5,000,000+ annually and the Supreme Court $8,000,000+, & Presidency $10,000,000+ annually with official residences and use of government planes.
Atlas sighed
What is shameful is that the Dems were noisy when it came to George Santos, but very few Dems are speaking out against one of their own and saying one of their own should resign.
I fucked LOVED this segment. It's John Stewert at the top of his game, pulling no punches and letting you know just how insane the wealthy and the powerful actually are. I'm also very glad you covered it, Kyle! I I like seeing your reaction. Perhaps you could create a channel that is just Kyle reacts to John Stewert banger segments" channel? LOL
What a system
It’s crazy that so many people had the chance to do this same story and never did. Man had to come out of retirement to hit the home run! 🏃♂️
Rich man's laws, poor man's jail time.
There's no fixing it when our checks and balances are all corrupt
Another excellent show! I think very highly Jon Stewart b/c he hasn't caved and has come back even more tenacious!
#getmoneyoutofpolitics
If America is one of those developed, least corrupt countries, I cannot imagine what does the corruption in undeveloped, most corrupt countries looks like.
When we rely on comedians to bring facts to light, we also dismiss the facts because we resign to laugh the corruption off. But this is serious. This corruption isn't funny and people need to stop laughing and start getting vocal without any hint of comedy. This is actually a tragedy.
New Jersey just seems like a very weird place for the most unique corruption in this country
That's a nice pic of you and Crystal Ball at the end.
BTW do you own as much as one wrinkle, or did you have the beauty-face filter on the whole time? lol
Brilliant
Like Jon said wayyyy back on Crossfire: "I didn't realize -- and maybe this explains quite a bit -- that the news organizations look to Comedy Central for their cues on integrity.". Depressing, Jon is still one of the best.
I don't have heroes, but if I did, Jon Stewart would be high on that list. Would love to see him run for President, but would never wish that on such a good guy.
It's awesome to have him back, even if it's only one night per week.
Why is it too much to ask to be against corruption and genocides?
Because they're fundamental human traits, we are inherently corrupt an despise the "other", its just who we are.
Jon Stewart is killing it these days! He’s bringing light to things not everyone may think or know about. Love it!
the problem is amending the constitution would require a 2/3 vote of congress and how tf would you get a supermajority to vote against something that benefits them massively
Good video
Protect Jon Stewart
He’ll blames her, she’ll blame him they’ll find Way to get away with this.
This is amazing😂
Jon Stewart is so fucking good at what he does. We're all better off that he's back!
Has Menendez even faced any consequences? lol
I swear on everything I love I have the whole box set and I have been working on it since this winter, because I don't wanted to end, even though I've seen it when it was first out on HBO, we had these devices called a descrambler, I'm sure you remember that Kyle and I'm on the last season disc one season 6... I love that and that's amazing that you're watching it
I wish someone pointed out the fact that it’s not a free market if you have insider information
Corruption equals treason
Aipac also needs to be disbanded or registered as a foreign agent
