"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 KZbin. 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 KZbin, 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. “That Raytheon decided they don’t hate gays or trans people - frankly, I don’t really give a shit what their take on that is..."

It’s hilarious how Dave pretends to be against the elites, yet during the entire interview he’s bragging about ringing the NYSE bell. That part of the interview was more embarrassing IMO

[@jacksilva-ponte2001]

Lol, Dave Rubin wanted so hard to go on Bill Maher's show. Now that he has, he got his ass destroyed. 😆

[@novacult3082]

No pun intended

[@yourneighborhoodfriendlyme4242]

To be fair, that would've been a good day for Dave, but he couldn't even get that 😉.

[@DeathsInverse]

Pause.

[@donnybereznak8653]

no he didn't. did you watch it, Or just this video? They laughed and had a great time together.

[@donnybereznak8653]

As someone who just watched the entire podcast, I can honestly say that just the title of this video is ingenuine. They spent 2 hours laughing and having a good time, despite their differences on Trump. And Bill stood his ground on Trump, which was authentic. But that was only 20 minutes of the 2 hours, and they still had a good time disagreeing. They were not at each other's throats.

[@BadBigBody]

It’s not ingenuine. Bill clearly thinks Dave is an idiot, as shown here. He’s not gonna spend the entire two hours screaming at him

[@donnybereznak8653]

@@BadBigBody yes about this one issue, but they agree on many other issues. Also this demonstrates that people can have different views on issues and still be friendly.

If authenticity means saying whatever thought crosses your mind, decorum be damned, then I'll take inauthentic everytime.

[@88mphDrBrown]

He's authentically a compulsive liar, in a world of liars.

[@dextermorgan4686]

Dave Rubin was basically like: _"Come on, Bill, follow me to the dark side."_ And if Bill was honest, he'd have answered: _"I'm already on the dark side... I'm a neoliberal who wants Amy fucking Klobuchar to be president."_ 😁

[@TFEnright5]

Kyle really needs to equalize the volume on his clips. When he’s speaking it’s so much louder than the volume on the clips that he plays.

[@elhammo7478]

On the point of "authenticity" - "authentic" does not necessarily mean "honest." He does in fact lie incessantly, but he does it in a manner more "authentic" to him. He doesn't remotely play by the rule book of how politicians are expected to lie or what rhetoric they are supposed to use. He's an absolutely loose canon in the way that he lies, and that gives people the impression of honesty, despite the fact that objectively, he is a prolific liar, to an incredible and unusual degree.

[@mrg0th1er83]

“Authentic” Trump lies 24/7. Might use a word like “unpolished” maybe. But authentic he is not. It’s all a performance. Maybe even more of a performance for Trump than your average politician.

[@Thezuule1]

I've frequently disagreed with Bill's stance on things over the years but I still like the guy. If you agree with every single thing someone says you're likely in a cult. We used to be able to agree sometimes, disagree sometimes, but not completely write someone off because their view on X isn't identical to yours in every way.

[@robertnicholls9917]

Maher is a mentally lazy, partisan, Corporate Liberal. Corporate liberals can be just as disingenuous, bigoted and anti-freedom as many on the right.

[@cegesh1459]

I disagreed with almost anything Bill said since 2016. He is now a conservatie bomer.

[@darkstar4494]

That’s because we used to all get our news from the same place so we agreed on “facts” eg newspapers and cnn even though some of them were distorted for political reasons too.

[@FratBoyFitness]

I watched the whole podcast. 99% of the podcast was Bill Maher talking about butt sex.

[@yourneighborhoodfriendlyme4242]

Well at least Dave FINALLY got to talk about a subject he actually knows SOMETHING about.

[@donnybereznak8653]

@@yourneighborhoodfriendlyme4242 isn't that homophobic?

[@maccusmc]

I see why people leave Kyle's podcast. He plays the video for 5 sec than talks for 13 min. Finish the video then comment on it

[@interdimensionalsteve8172]

Maher needs to keep talking to people like Rubin - maybe he'll eventually realize that he's spewing the same idiotic culture war talking points these guys do.

[@meligoth]

Doesn't everyone does that to him , especially the ones he considers friends.

[@evgeny9965]

Kyle, saying I choose the other side of the same coin sadly puts him in the Rubin camp.

[@cineastik8220]

On KZbin, the channel “Dave Rubin Clips“ has apparently (and more sadly so) been deleted, but there is a new one called “Dave Rubin Fan Page“, which unfortunately hasn‘t got every video from the previous channel…

[@dmanletsgo]

Bill says he would move if Cali does another lock down 😂

[@Anne_Onymous]

Yet he has no trouble joining up with the social club that voted for Hillary, Biden, Pelosi, Waters, Talib, Omar, Lightfoot, Abrams, etc? 😂 👌

[@taikamiya8214]

"Bill Maher is almost there. What does he need to finally get over the hump?" About 10 less IQ points.

[@humbertoramirez8165]

Trump poll tests everything, he just does it live at his rallies. If something he says gets a positive reaction in trump's mind he will make it a talking point from then on and use the shit out of it.

[@chim4801]

This is like the Episode of Family Guy when Brian goes on Maher, but Brian is Dave Rubin 😂

I thought ‘gay Conservative’ was an oxymoron.
