In hour two of Here & Now’s April 20, 2018 full broadcast, Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan this week called a snap election in June, more than a year ahead of schedule. We get the latest from the BBC’s Mark Lowen in Istanbul. Also, in his book “In Sickness and In Health,” Ben Mattlin chronicles “interabled” relationships between people with disabilities and people who are able-bodied. And more than 200 priests from around the world are in Rome this week for an annual Vatican training course on how to perform exorcisms.
