Kenneth Sewell’s cogent, well-argued, and deeply unsettling book Red Star Rogue claims that on March 7, 1968, a rogue Soviet submarine destroyed itself while attempting to launch its ballistic missiles at Honolulu. How could this submarine have penetrated US waters undetected? What actually happened aboard the K-129? Why has the incident been kept secret for so many years? The history of this terrifying event is discussed. Sewell’s book reminds us that, at any given time, the world truly walks along the edge of a straight razor. Listen in to an in-depth discussion of this unnerving story.
