This podcast series runs 5 podcast episodes long and tells the story of the religious right history without prejudice. Christians and conservatives will enjoy this one especially. Here is a list of some key sources that were used in the research if listeners are interested in learning more. I noted in episode 1 how/why I chose the sources I chose.

Theology
This is a third source which is not really utilized in the podcast serious. This web site looks at the theology of many among the religious right. This perspective here is skeptical and I am inclined to agree.
