After graduating from university as a marine biologist, Matt Lewis scored his first big role in the field as an observer aboard the South African fishing vessel Sudur Havid. Just three weeks after leaving dry land, the boat was hit by a massive Antarctic storm.

In this episode, Matt Lewis recounts the chaos that ensued as the emergency unfolded on deck, the dangerously cold conditions that would ultimately claim 17 lives, and how he - even as one of the youngest on board - was the last man off the stricken boat.

In this explosive discussion, Tom Nichols, Atlantic staff writer, joins Matt to break down Pete Hegseth's controversial speech to over 800 generals and admirals at Quantico, Virginia. From calling out "woke" policies and toxic leadership to fat-shaming officers and banning anonymous complaints, Hegseth's address is dissected as performative nonsense dripping with grievance. Nichols pulls no punches, comparing it to a Fox News clip reel and warning of real dangers to military readiness. We dive deep into Hegseth's warrior ethos rant and why it's "idiotic" -- Fitness standards, fat generals, and excluding the Commander-in-Chief? -- Scrapping anti-bullying policies – A Few Good Men vibes gone wrong (-- No more complaints: Silencing women, racism issues, and beard exceptions -- Is the military too soft? Nichols says NO – Evidence from Russia-Ukraine -- Trump's Ukraine flip-flop: From quick win to "wish both countries well" -- Government shutdown showdown: Trump owns it, Democrats' messaging fail? Nichols also touches on Trump's retribution obsession, Putin's humiliations, and why Hegseth is the least qualified Defense Secretary ever. Is this just theater, or a threat to national security?Subscribe for more hard-hitting political analysis!

During this Substack LIVE with my Tom LoBianco of 24 Sight News, I shared my thoughts on Charlie Kirk's memorial. In short, I'm hopeful that his memorial could spark a genuine revival of faith. Moments like this remind us of the power of Christ to bring healing, unity, and hope.At the same time, I can't help but worry about the growing mix of politics and religion. When faith becomes tied too closely to partisan battles, it risks alienating people — especially Democrats — who might otherwise be open to the Gospel.In this video, I share my heart: the hope I see, the concerns I hold, and why I believe the Church must remain centered on Christ above all else.Support "Matt Lewis & The News" at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattlewisFollow Matt Lewis & Cut Through the Noise:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MattLewisDCTwitter: https://twitter.com/mattklewisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattklewis/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhSMpjOzydlnxm5TDcYn0A– Who is Matt Lewis? –Matt K.
