Our take on Devil and the Deep Blue Sea podcast

If you're into cultural history, Devil and the Deep Blue Sea is a must-listen. Created by the team behind The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill, this limited series dives into the wild hysteria of the Satanic Panic in the '80s and '90s. It's fascinating how fear turned books like Go Ask Alice into cautionary tales and shaped infamous cases like the West Memphis Three. Mike Cosper, the host, analyzes how this frenzy blinded many to real issues within their communities. It's eye-opening, thought-provoking, and perfect for anyone who loves exploring how fear shapes society. Devil and the Deep Blue Sea is a history podcast by Christianity Today.
