"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.

Its also ridiculous considering how quickly the 'too old' line was pulled on bernie by the same people

And its ridiculous because Biden is not "too old". The issue has always been his clear cognitive decline. A consequence of age, sure, but it's specifically the problem

Yeah, they also tried to paint Bernie as some predator with absolutely zero evidence. "Icky, makes my skin crawl" yet several decades of watching Biden with very questionable behaviors, sniffing, touching, rubbing, women and kids.

It's crazy that we still use TV ratings to judge how successful something was. KZbin has 4x as many views on it last time I checked, almost as much as ticker Carlson's interview with Putin. I think that's more impressive than 1 million views on TV.

The thing is Jon Stewart hasn’t exactly been hiding for the last 2/3 years. He had the Apple TV show and was doing weekly podcasts. Goes to show you that the media only cares as far as it threatens their influence. Jon’s return to TDS was newsworthy and by default threatened the status quo. But it’s not like this is anything new.

[@liguy181]

He's one of the few people in media where you legitimately cannot find a scandal about him. The guy has been in the public for like 30 years and it's impossible to say anything negative about him as a person. You can disagree with his takes all you want, but Jon Stewart, the human being, is such a standup guy. Also, anecdotally, the few people I know irl who have met Jon Stewart (even if for a few seconds) say he's the nicest celebrity they've ever met. it feels like he's actually talking to and cares about you, and you're not just one in a million fans he has to deal with

Jon Stewart has never been a democratic mouthpiece and despite being a liberal, has enough of an ethical backbone that he doesn’t turn it into a snooze fest one siding everything. It’s political comedy for normal people, that’s his job. He needs to be accessible instead of hyper partisan. His final monologue spoke volumes to that. Dems need to grow a thicker skin coz it’s not Jon to blame for calling out their mistakes. We need better people in charge and right now, it’s neither of the candidates, most of congress or the senate. They’re a cancer on society.

My biggest issue with Jon Stewart is in the way he's choosing to engage in politics. He knows who hes dealing with, and he does know the stakes. He also knows the timing. I've said for years that I'd vote for him if he ran, but the dude would rather make a comedy show about politics. Is what he said factually incorrect? No. Is the timing and lack of consideration for the broader context of his comments suspect? Yes. Overall, it does sound like a Sista soljah moment to try and garner a broad audience for his content. It sounds very....Bill Maher.

I've always been very honest about what I've thought about Biden. He's NEVER been my choice. I've only supported him by default, because the better candidates have never been given a chance by the mainstream Democratic party.

[@TMendocino]

Gerontologists have recognized that people experience very different conditions as they approach old age. In developed countries, many people in their later 60s and 70s (frequently called "early old age") are still fit, active, and able to care for themselves. However, after 80, they generally become increasingly frail, a condition marked by serious mental and physical debilitation. Therefore, rather than lumping together all people who have been defined as old, some gerontologists have recognized the diversity of old age by defining sub-groups. One study distinguishes the young-old (60 to 69), the middle-old (70 to 79), and the very old (80+). Another study's sub-grouping is young-old (65 to 74), middle-old (75 to 84), and oldest-old (85+). A third sub-grouping is young-old (65 to 74), old (74 to 84), and old-old (85+). Describing sub-groups in the 65+ population enables a more accurate portrayal of significant life changes. Biden is OLD in any definition. You can't stop the hands of time because you wish it!

Having worked in elder care for 30 years, I encountered people in their 60s exhibiting signs of dementia and those in their 90s without. So it isn't JUST chronological age. Trump has some form of psychopathy and is showing early signs of cognitive decline. (I said a lot of words, too. I coulda just said, Biden and Trump are both dementing, but Trump is crazy, too.) 😂😎

​@@xtroguyverKeith used to be on MTV, if you get in the waaaay back machine. That's where I know him from, then I think CNN or MSNBC, I didn't follow his career, so I'm not sure which 1 it was.

[@jimmcmanmon]

He used to be on ESPN. He is a non- relevant pinhead. But he has other pinheads putting him in the spotlight, as if his comments matter at the nation level.

[@ethandubois7536]

The thing that gets me is Jon said "If Biden is acting sharp and alert behind the scenes, you should film that and show it to us". The WH response was to not do that, and criticize Jon instead.

[@Thebeaner01]

This only proves how politics have gone far too long without being properly criticized

[@carletonrutherford1799]

EXACTLY! And these thin skinned reactionary lefties who aren't used to being told the truth about Biden are losing their minds, accusing Stewart of both sidesism. They missed his point completely.

A truly "The king has no clothes!" kind of situation.

[@fishbiter9409]

What do you mean?

[@lancecook7225]

The taylor convinced the king he made him the finest drip. But that the clothes were invisible to those not worthy. King couldn't see his own clothes and was embarrassed that he wasn't worthy so he played along. Turns out there was no clothes and it became evident during his parade through the kingdom. ​@@fishbiter9409

Clearly not some of the left wing KZbinrs, who want to deny, or soften the fact that Biden IS OLD, and is suffering from cognitive decline. They only want tump to get insulted and joked about, because you know, orange man bad only, Biden best president ever!!

[@MISSYGful]

Exactly this!! 💯

[@donibritts2911]

But most of them are perpetually distracted, completely mis and/or dis-informed, too "busy" to pay attention to anything that actually matters outside of their own selfish interests, and quite frankly a HUGE number are not smart enough to tell the difference between a joke and reality. Sorry, it's just true. Don't believe me? See United States - 2016-2020.
