TWR Monday | A Masterclass On Modern Political Thrillers w/ Author Matt Scott! In this episode of The Whitfield Report, Sam sits down with modern political thriller author Matt Scott for a deep dive into his high-stakes, espionage-filled novels. Matt's latest action-packed thriller, THE AYATOLLAH TAKEDOWN (publishing 3/21/23 via Speaking Volumes), continues his gripping series following the success of SURVIVING THE LION’S DEN (2021) and THE IRANIAN DECEPTION (2022). Matt shares insights into crafting authentic and pulse-pounding spy fiction, drawing inspiration from masters like Vince Flynn and Brad Thor. He discusses his fascination with Iran, a country rarely explored in Western thrillers, and how he sought to bring it to life through immersive storytelling—much like The Da Vinci Code did for European history and art. From the art of balancing real-world geopolitics with fictional intrigue to the challenges of writing modern-day espionage, this episode is a must-listen for fans of political thrillers, aspiring authors, and anyone who loves a good page-turner. 🔗 Learn more about Matt Scott and his books atMattScottBooks.com Please Support The Show: Sam’s Substack: https://samwhitfield.substack.com/ Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/TheWhitfieldReport Whitfield Report Guilded server: https://www.guilded.gg/r/zzzE8b61qR?i=AYwozWnd Sam’s Amazon Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Sam-Whitfield/author/B00M1DNU88?ref=ap_rdr&store_ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4DIcoDO0BIDyuH7SWIsAB8?si=8c06106f817d4eeb Follow Sam on X and Instagram @SamW_NGC Follow Right To Offend Media on X @RTOMedia
