Breaking History Ep. 112: Reagan, The Vatican & The Cold War Chessboard

Matt Ehret and Ghost explore the intricate alliance between Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul II, revealing how their shared vision helped reshape the geopolitical landscape of the Cold War. They trace the backchannel diplomacy, covert strategies, and moral narratives that united the White House and the Vatican in opposition to Soviet influence, particularly in Eastern Europe. The conversation unpacks the role of intelligence networks, economic pressures, and ideological messaging in undermining communist regimes, while also considering the long-term consequences of these maneuvers on global politics. With historical depth and sharp analysis, the hosts connect the dots between faith, statecraft, and the power plays that defined a pivotal era.
