What if 150 years of biblical archaeology hasn't produced a single find that contradicts the Bible?

That's the claim Dinesh D'Souza makes in this conversation about his new book, The Stones Cry Out. We talk about the artifacts quietly coming out of the ground in Israel — including the bones of Caiaphas, the clay seal of a minor character from Jeremiah, and the recently confirmed location of Bethsaida — and why most of this isn't being shouted from the rooftops.

We also get into:
- Why younger generations are drawn to socialism (and how "crony capitalism" fuels it)
- The modern state of Israel as prophecy fulfilled
- Why Dinesh has been publicly challenging Calvinism
- The Pool of Siloam, the Garden Tomb, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre
- His years inside the Reagan administration
- A lunch with Richard Nixon
- Fried bananas, My Cousin Vinny, and Breaker Morant

Dinesh is a filmmaker, author, and friend, and this one covers a lot of ground — from apologetics to American history to personal stories.

Pick up The Stones Cry Out wherever you get your books.
