Dr. Lauren Turek, associate professor of history at Trinity University, joins to discuss her 2020 book To Bring the Good News to All Nations: Evangelical Influence of Human Rights and U.S. Foreign Relations. Our conversation ranges from US Cold War policy (and why, oh why Evangelicals lobbied against peace/détente in the face of nuclear catastrophe) to examining a half century of religious cheerleading on behalf of authoritarian leaders and reliable support for regime change.

In this episode you'll also get to hear Casey misidentify leaders of Central American nations...partially because there are far too many US-backed coups supported by Evangelicals to keep track of, and partially because...let's be honest, Casey doesn't know everything!
