This week: a tale of corruption, oil, and secret plots! So like, your standard setup for a coup. We talk about indulgent shahs, what happens when your prime minister is just TOO popular, and how to instigate the U.S. into overthrowing a government (hint: it’s not that hard!)

This week is a story of the evils of capitalism, namely how the U.S. sold weapons, dealt drugs, and trained soldiers to torture people, all to stop a country from providing for its people. Because that description could apply to a lot of countries, I should specify that we’re talking about Nicaragua.
