Episode 485: “The Peacemaker” – President Ronald Reagan

<p>Every president prior to Ronald Reagan viewed the Cold War as a great power conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union. Reagan saw it differently.

Newt’s guest is, William Inboden. His new book, “THE PEACEMAKER: Ronald Reagan, The Cold War, and the World on the Brink” is out now.</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
