He graduated from New Rochelle High School in 2006 and Iona College in 2010 with a bachelor’s degree in political science and a minor in psychology.

Career
Kyle Kulinski started a YouTube channel in the spring of 2008, named “Secular Talk” while studying as a political science student. Kyle indicated from the beginning that the show leans heavily to the left. He presents the news with a “brash” and “in-your-face” tone along with jokes and swears words, in sharp contrast to the professional presentation style found in mainstream news outlets.
Kulinski began publishing videos full-time disillusioned with US President Barack Obama by the end of his first term and started broadcasting on BlogTalkRadio as The Kyle Kulinski Show. This surge in activity pushed his YouTube subscriber count above 100,000. By 2015, Kulinski was making a living from Secular Talk. Since then, his videos regularly get hundreds of thousands of views.

In December 2016, after the 2016 United States presidential election, Kulinski—alongside Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks, and Saikat Chakrabarti and Zack Exley of the 2016 Bernie Sanders presidential campaign—created Justice Democrats, a political action committee with the goal of supporting progressive candidates in primary elections against Democratic members of congress.
Kyle Kulinski and Uygur resigned from the group in late 2017. Since leaving, Kulinski has expressed disapproval with the Justice Democrats’ political strategy and has criticized congresspeople aligned with the Justice Democrats for not withholding their votes from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in exchange for a House vote on Medicare for All.
Kulinski and Krystal Ball started a podcast titled Krystal Kyle & Friends in January 2021, where they are both co-hosts. Notable podcast guests have included Russell Brand, Noam Chomsky, Thomas Frank, Glenn Greenwald, Carl Hart, Justin Jackson, Bernie Sanders, Matt Taibbi, Nina Turner, Cornel West, Marianne Williamson, Richard D. Wolff and Andrew Yang.
Political views
Kyle Kulinski is cited as a progressive commentator. Kulinski has been noted by The Hill for his commentary regarding various presidential candidates, including Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. In Bridgewater State University’s journal The Graduate Review, Kulinski has been described as one of the “new organic intellectuals of YouTube.”
Kulinski has described himself as a social democrat, agnostic atheist, secular humanist, left-wing populist, and a left-libertarian. He characterizes his beliefs as moderate by international political standards, arguing that he is only considered far-left and extreme in the United States because “the spectrum of public discourse has shifted to the far-right”.
He advocates for single-payer healthcare, free tuition at public colleges and universities, a federal living wage, reduction in military spending, military non-interventionism, abolition of capital punishment, infrastructure spending, the legalization of euthanasia, and the legalization, regulation, and taxation of drugs and prostitution.
Kyle Kulinski opposes the use of biometrics for the purpose of employee management, characterizing this use as “rank authoritarianism disguised as corporate efficiency for consumer satisfaction.” Kulinski has criticized religiously-motivated opposition to abortion, arguing that, according to his interpretation of the Bible, abortion is permissible in Christianity.
Kulinski believes that campaign finance policy is what distinguishes progressive candidates from the mainstream of the Democratic Party, which he referred to as “just Republican-lite.” When advocating for candidates endorsed by Justice Democrats, Kulinski stated “if somebody gives you a check for a tremendous amount of money, you’re going to look out for them. The Democratic Party is a shell of its former self. Get rid of the corporate money. We need to focus on the issues.”
Other politics
Kyle Kulinski supported Bernie Sanders in the 2016 Democratic primary election, and later voted for Jill Stein. While critical of Hillary Clinton, he described her as the “lesser of two evils” in the general election against Donald Trump and said that people in swing states should vote for Clinton to stop Trump from winning.
After Trump’s election, Kyle Kulinski expressed his belief that progressives and liberals could successfully lobby President Trump to pursue policies such as infrastructure spending and economic protectionism. Kulinski criticizes the Never Trump movement and discourages praising Republicans who criticize Trump, stating “establishment Republicans want Trump to do every single thing he’s doing, minus the mean tweets.”
After then-candidate Joe Biden became the presumptive winner of the 2020 Democratic Party presidential primaries, Kulinski stated that he would not support Biden, even if it meant Donald Trump winning. When commenting on this position, Kulinski mentioned that he encourages his critics to “blame him” if Trump were to win re-election, as he believed this would have demonstrated that candidates such as Biden require the support of him and those who share his perspectives in order to win.
Journalist Mehdi Hasan criticized Kyle Kulinski for this view, stating: “If you’re ok with a white nationalist winning a second term, I question your ‘left-wing’ credentials.” Television host Joy Reid concurred with Hasan’s criticism of Kulinski’s position.

In 2014, when then-Fox News host Oliver North made a speech comparing fighting against gay rights to fighting against slavery, Kulinski covered the speech by saying: “Not only is there no comparison, if anything the opposition position on those issues is more like opposing slavery.” Kyle Kulinski added: “To be in favor of gay rights and to try to treat people equally under the law—that is definitely a movement that is more in line with the idea behind the abolitionists of treating people equally and treating people right.”
