Welcome to Season One of Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, where we explore the strange and troubling era of the 1980s and ’90s when America—especially the evangelical church—became convinced that satanic ritual abuse and occult activity hid around every corner. From local news reports warning of dark rituals to churches hosting “record burnings” to purge secular music, fear of a hidden, demonic conspiracy dominated the cultural landscape.In this preview of our first episode, "The Devil Went Down To Arkansas", host Mike Cosper introduces two stories that seem worlds apart—The Duggar Family, a symbol of conservative Christian values, and The West Memphis Three, a tragic case driven by hysteria and misinformation.To hear the full episode, subscribe to Devil And The Deep Blue Sea wherever you find your podcasts.
