I just now tuned in.
Turkey is a fascinating place because of the history- set betwixt the West and the East, the Catholic split, Christianity/Islam, Islamic invasions to Europe (in the past and now,) Capitalist/Communist, NATO but now Islamic, and secularism/military vs Islamic/popular and the constant intrigues from Caliphate and even now, etc. And the various genocides and Kurdish issues. Peter Dale Scott has some good stuff on the "Deep State" and Turkey is one place where it is even acknowledged by academics, newspapers, etc.
