What’s the connection among China, the Mexican cartels, the opioid crisis and your backyard? What if I told you it all starts at the southern border? What if I told you that the threats posed by the border crisis are not confined to the southern border at all but are also very real within your state, your town, and even your neighborhood? You’ve heard about the crisis at the southern border... but never like this.

Welcome to the Dark Wars.

Dark Wars: The Border is a new podcast series, hosted by award-winning journalist Sara Carter, that conducts in-depth investigations to expose what you are not being told about what’s happening at our 2,000-mile-long border with Mexico. It uncovers how this crisis touches you and every other American across the country. Dark Wars is a joint production of Radio America and The Dark Wire.
