REBROADCAST | Ronald Reagan: The Voice in the Wilderness Part 3
To commemorate the 20th anniversary of his passing, we are rebroadcasting our series on President Ronald Reagan
________
After entering office in 1981, Ronald Reagan insisted he wanted to reduce the threat of nuclear weapons. His critics scoffed at him, not believing he was sincere. In 1987, he stunned them by signing the INF Treaty with the Soviets, eliminating an entire class of nuclear weapons. In this episode, we cover how Reagan did just that and how his policies led to the end of the Cold War.

The Worst Historical Movie Ever? with William Nunez
In 1956, a movie about the life of Genghis Khan was released. The actor who played Genghis Khan? Wait for it....
John Wayne!
And the result was... well... even worse than anyone could have imagined. The Conqueror is widely considered one of the worst films ever made and the decision to cast virtually all white actors and actresses has not aged well.
This movie is so bad... it's BAD.
Filmmaker William Nunez has just written, directed, and produced a documentary on this monstrosity of a film, titled The Conqueror: Hollywood Fallout. In this episode, we interview Mr. Nunez about his documentary and the broader issue of nuclear testing during the Cold War.

REBROADCAST | Ronald Reagan: The Voice in the Wilderness Part 2
To commemorate the 20th anniversary of his passing, we are rebroadcasting our series on President Ronald Reagan________
When Ronald Reagan was elected president, his critics worried he would escalate the Cold War--maybe even provoke World War III. Reagan, however, was planning the exact opposite: yes, he wanted to defeat the Soviet Union but he had an audacious plan to work with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev and abolish nuclear weapons from the face of the earth. In this episode, we discuss Reagan's bold vision and its impact on the world.
