Brad Thor joins us today to discuss his new Scot Harvath thriller, Choke Point. Brad is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of twenty six thrillers, with a career built on taking real world threats, intelligence failures, terrorism, geopolitics and national security blind spots, then turning them into fiction that feels a little too close to tomorrow’s headlines.
This is not just a conversation about a new book. Brad has served as a member of the Department of Homeland Security’s Analytic Red Cell Unit, lectured law enforcement on future threats, and even shadowed a Black Ops team in Afghanistan while researching The Apostle. That gives him a very different perspective from someone just sitting at a desk making up bad guys.
We’ll talk about Choke Point, the return of Scot Harvath, the moral lines people face in a world where the enemy does not play fair, and why fiction can sometimes tell the truth in a way official briefings never will. We’ll also get into how Brad develops his ideas, what kind of network helps him stay informed, and what threats he sees coming that most Americans are still not paying attention to.
Many author interviews turn into a polished sales pitch for the latest book. That is not what we are doing today. Yes, we’ll talk about the book, but we’ll also talk about the world behind the book, why thrillers matter, what they can teach us, and why people who care about freedom, security, and the future of this nation should pay attention to writers like Brad Thor.
