The Most Dangerous Question in History

This week on The Global Show with Dave Benson, Dave is joined by author Erik Foge, a writer whose love of history, intelligence work, and moral dilemmas has shaped a series of novels where the past is never as simple as it looks.Erik shares how a childhood trip to Washington, D.C. sparked a lifelong fascination with government, history, and the Central Intelligence Agency. From calling the CIA as a teenager to being approached while at college, Erik’s story feels like the opening chapter of one of his own books.The conversation explores the real inspiration behind his Project Pegasus stories, including the uncomfortable question at the heart of One Way Roads: what if killing Hitler did not fix history, but made everything worse?Dave and Erik also discuss World War II, the butterfly effect, JFK, the Battle of Britain, rejected manuscripts, literary agents, turning novels into scripts, and why history is not just something trapped in old books. It is alive, dangerous, and full of consequences.Erik also talks about his upcoming book Deceptive Protocol, the prequel to We Know Your Name, and his new story about soulmates, reincarnation, and love across history.This is a conversation for anyone who loves alternate history, spy fiction, time travel, World War II, the CIA, and stories that ask one very dangerous question:What if changing the past is the worst thing we could do?Find Erik Foge online:Website: erikfoge.comBooks available on AmazonLinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook: Erik FogeSubscribe for more conversations with authors, creatives, performers, filmmakers, and people with stories worth hearing.
