THE PRESS ROOM
Podcast
Starting March 21, 2026
Proud American Studios
I’m Michael Koscielniak, Retired Homeland Security Investigations Special Agent.
I’ve spent the last 26 years of my career protecting and defending this country.
I can tell you this: America is in danger - Not just from foreign threats and enemies, but from ourselves. Political extremism, corruption, media bias, and a country of Americans who are tired of it all. It is all coming to a head and it’s about to explode in this country.
That’s why I’m here, as President of Proud American Studios.
We are a new American multimedia platform built to expose the truth. We aim to put Americans back in charge of the narrative, without censorship or apology.
We have put together a team of prior Homeland Security Agents, U.S. Special Forces Operators, U.S Intelligence agents, and law enforcement and military professionals. Together we believe in National Security, safe neighborhoods, and a powerful yet peaceful Country.
We put Americans first in our Podcasts, Movies, Documentaries and Micro-Series, delivering hard facts and reporting, while honoring the heroes serving our country and protecting us every day.
We launch March 21. The truth is coming America. If you believe this country is worth fighting for— Join us
- Michael Koscielniak, President, Proud American Studios

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
- Ronald Reagan, later elected the 40th President of the United States
