This week, journalist Mark Bowden discusses his new book The Steal: The Attempt to Overturn the 2020 Election and the People Who Stopped It, co-written with Matthew Teague. Bowden is interviewed by reporter Natalie Y. Moore. This conversation originally took place May 19, 2024 and was recorded live at the 2024 American Writers Festival. AWM PODCAST NETWORK HOME MARK BOWDEN is the author of fifteen books, including the #1 New York Times bestseller Black Hawk Down, Killing Pablo, Hue 1968, and The Last Stone. He reported at the Philadelphia Inquirer for twenty years and now writes for The Atlantic and other magazines. NATALIE Y.

Whoa, just finished the awesome book, "Hue:1968" by Mark Bowden in 2017. The Battle of Hue occurred during the Tet Offensive in 1968 and was a pivotal battle in the Vietnam war, leading to the famous stalemate broadcast by Walter Cronkite. I think this book bombed when it came out because of Vietnam fatigue. I grabbed it off the discount table at Prairie Lights in Iowa City. I knew I'd like it because of the author, Mark Bowden who is most famous for "Black Hawk Down" and "Killing Pablo." He's a bad ass writer and about as good as it gets in terms of bringing the sights, smells, and emotions of combat. Until Zuckerberg comes up with combat VR, the book was just about as close as you can get to feel what's it's like to be in urban combat.

Detailing the rise and fall of the Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar.

A blend of Manhunt, Killing Pablo, and Zero Dark Thirty, Andrew Hogan and Douglas Century's sensational investigative high-tech thriller - soon to be a major motion picture from Sony - chronicles a riveting chapter in the 20th-century drug wars: the exclusive inside story of the American lawman and his dangerous eight-year hunt that captured El Chapo - the world's most wanted drug kingpin who evaded the law for more than a decade. Every generation has a larger-than-life criminal: Jesse James, Billy the Kid, John Dillinger, Al Capone, John Gotti, Pablo Escobar. But each of these notorious lawbreakers had a "white hat" in pursuit: Wyatt Earp, Pat Garrett, Eliot Ness, Steve Murphy. For notorious drug lord Joaquín Archivaldo Guzmán-Loera - El Chapo - that lawman is former Drug Enforcement Administration Special Agent Andrew Hogan. In 2006, fresh out of the DEA Academy, Hogan heads west to Arizona, where he immediately plunges into a series of gripping undercover adventures, all unknowingly placing him on the trail of Guzmán, the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, a Forbes billionaire, and public enemy number one in the United States. Six years later, as head of the DEA's Sinaloa Cartel desk in Mexico City, Hogan finds his life and Chapo's are, ironically, on parallel paths: They're both obsessed with the details. In a recasting of the classic American Western on the global stage, Hunting El Chapo takes us on Hogan's quest to achieve the seemingly impossible, from infiltrating El Chapo's inner circle to leading a white-knuckle manhunt with an elite brigade of trusted Mexican marines - racing door to door through the cartel's stronghold and ultimately bringing the elusive and murderous kingpin to justice. This cinematic crime story following the relentless investigative work of Hogan and his team unfolds at breakneck speed, taking the listener behind the scenes of one of the most sophisticated and dangerous counternarcotics operations in the history of the United States and Mexico.
