The Salt Lake Tribune's "Mormon Land" podcast features historian Kate Bowler discussing her New York Times bestseller on how Latter-day Saint women shaped conservative Christian ideals around womanhood. Bowler, a historian of Christianity in America, examines what she describes as "a dark side to Latter-day Saint women's sunny disposition."

The episode explores the broader cultural influence of LDS teachings on women's roles beyond the Mormon community itself, tracing how these ideas spread through American conservative Christianity.
