The Lou Holtz Show is my chance to come alongside this generation with the same message my parents taught me. It’s a chance to hear from heroes of our culture. It’s a chance for the younger generation to hear that hard work, education, and responsibility will change YOUR life.
I don’t care if you’re Republican, Democrat, Independent, white, black, yellow, or any color in between. This show is to inspire people to do the right thing. Each episode of my show will feature a unique guest who has had a remarkable influence on American culture.
Coach Lou Holtz sits down with NFL veteran and College Football Hall of Famer Dat Nguyen for a heartfelt and inspiring episode. Born in Vietnam and raised in Texas, Dat shares his remarkable journey from humble beginnings to starring for Texas A&M and the Dallas Cowboys. As the first Vietnamese-American to play and be recognized as an All-Pro in the NFL, Dat discusses the importance of faith, family, and staying grounded while chasing big dreams.
Coach Holtz and Dat explore the values that shaped his career and continue to guide his life—discipline, resilience, and service. Now a successful Chick-fil-A owner and community leader, Dat talks about mentoring young people, restoring culture through strong families, and the faith that carried him through adversity. Tune in to hear how Dat Nguyen embodies the spirit of the American Dream, and how his message of perseverance and purpose can help us all lead better lives.
