In this powerful episode, Coach Lou Holtz is joined by Chad Robichaux—a decorated Force Recon Marine, special operator, author, and founder of the Mighty Oaks Foundation—for an unflinching look at faith, service, and the leadership America desperately needs. Chad opens up about his eight deployments to Afghanistan, including the rescue mission that evacuated over 17,000 allies during the disastrous withdrawal.

Chad shares his deeply personal struggles with PTSD, the turning point that led him to Christ, and how his battle for healing became a mission to help fellow veterans. From founding a faith-based recovery ministry that has served over half a million warriors, to leading humanitarian missions in Ukraine with his son, Chad reveals what it truly means to live a life of selfless service.

Coach Holtz and Chad explore the urgent need to restore American culture—starting with discipline, faith, personal responsibility, and strong leadership. With reflections on purpose, patriotism, and perseverance, this conversation is a stirring call to action for those who believe America’s best days can still lie ahead.
