MAX Afterburner: Recent Episodes
Matthew 'Whiz" Buckley
The MAX Afterburner podcast with Whiz is a long form conversation hosted by Matthew 'Whiz" Buckley with friends and guests covering a wide range of topics from veterans issues, to markets, to politics, wrapped with care for mind, body, and soul.
In this powerful episode, Whiz welcomes fellow veteran Kristopher Pace into the studio—an Air Force warrior who, like Whiz, faced the invisible wounds of service, including a traumatic brain injury. But instead of surrendering to the darkness, Kris found light through yoga, meditation, and plant medicine.
Kris didn’t just practice yoga—he mastered it, reaching a level few ever do. That transformation inspired him to launch Vets2Yoga, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that helps veterans heal through movement, breathwork, and community connection.
Kris is also the visionary behind The Living Man Festival, a conscious, family-friendly gathering set in the sacred stillness of Colorado’s high desert at the Kosmos Stargazing Resort. The festival honors our veterans, uplifts holistic wellness, and strengthens community through purpose-driven celebration.
Whiz and Kris are teaming up to make Living Man a powerful force for good—a space where healing is real, connection is deep, and lives are changed.
Tune in to hear their stories, their vision, and how they’re putting afterburners on a movement to save our nation's heroes.
Four years ago, Matthew “Whiz” Buckley crossed the border into Mexico with three fellow veterans and an NFL veteran—each seeking healing through psychedelic-assisted therapy after traditional methods failed to address the invisible wounds of war, trauma, and addiction.
What began as a deeply personal journey has now become a national mission through the No Fallen Heroes Foundation. In this powerful episode of The MAX Afterburner Podcast, Whiz reflects on how far the movement has come—and how the past three weeks may represent a historic turning point for veteran mental health care in the United States.
Highlights from the episode include:
• A public cabinet-level briefing on the role of psychedelics and nonprofits in the future of veteran care
• Whiz’s in-person meeting with VA Secretary Collins in Washington, D.C., advocating for access, research, and reform
• Updates from the federal summit on psychedelic medicine, bringing together scientists, policymakers, and veteran advocates
• Breaking news: The FDA Commissioner confirms that exploring psychedelic medicine is a “top priority” for the Trump administration
• The nomination of a new U.S. Surgeon General who claims psilocybin helped her heal and find love
The episode closes with a forward-looking vision:
Over the next four years, Whiz sees the rescheduling of psychedelic medicines, the creation of veteran vouchers, and stronger partnerships between the VA and nonprofit organizations delivering real-world outcomes.
This episode is more than a reflection—it's a rally cry. The mission is clear: healing our heroes at home starts now.
In this powerful episode of MAX Afterburner Matthew “Whiz” Buckley shares where he is nearly four years after first sitting with the medicine—and why the path of awakening is anything but easy.
Spiritual awakening is not all light and bliss. It often feels like a death—the death of who you thought you were. The dismantling of ego, identity, and the structures that once made you feel safe. It’s disorienting. It’s heavy. And it can feel painfully lonely.
But Whiz reminds listeners: you are not alone. If you choose to heal, if you choose to walk through this fire, you’re walking with others who are doing the same. What feels like destruction is actually divine reconstruction. God removes the old not to punish, but to make room for the new. Truth isn’t good or bad—it’s just truth. And once it’s seen, it demands change. And there’s no turning back.
This episode also touches on the recent passing of the Pope and Whiz’s public disagreement with how the Church has handled American Catholic politicians who support abortion—even up to and beyond birth. Silence from spiritual leaders in the face of moral conflict is not neutrality—it’s complicity.
Finally, Whiz shares the gut-wrenching news that three people he knew personally were killed in a tragic plane crash in Boca Raton—news he received immediately after leaving the studio during a previous recording.
Raw. Honest. Unapologetic.
MAX Afterburner Episode 123 is full throttle.
In this action-packed solo episode, Whiz fires on all cylinders.
He breaks down the recent string of aviation tragedies—from the heartbreaking crash in Boca Raton to the devastating NYC helicopter incident—offering insight only a former TOPGUN aviator can.
Then he shifts gears to the markets, where volatility reigns. While others panic, Whiz explains how disciplined traders are seizing opportunities and profiting from the chaos.
Finally, Whiz brings an inspiring update from the psychedelic frontlines. Incredible breakthroughs are happening in real time, helping our veterans, first responders, and their families find peace, purpose, and healing through alternative medicine.
You’ll get news, mindset, strategy—and most importantly—hope.
Fight’s on. Tune in.
In this powerful episode, Whiz sits down with Dr. Deborah Mash, the renowned neuroscientist known as the Queen of Ibogaine. While Whiz and countless others share their personal healing journeys with ibogaine, Dr. Mash brings the hard science. With over 30 years of research, she breaks down how ibogaine and its metabolite, noribogaine, work to heal trauma and addiction at the neurological level—including a scientific analysis of Whiz’s own experience.
Dr. Mash tackles the fear and misinformation surrounding this medicine, explaining how the risks can be mitigated—or even eliminated—with proper protocols. She also discusses her groundbreaking work in taking the “psychedelic” out of the psychedelic experience, making ibogaine more accessible for those hesitant about the visionary aspects. As she asks, “Do you need the trip to get to the destination?”
Dr. Mash also shares an exciting update on her company, DemeRx, and its mission to revolutionize treatment for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD).
If you’re curious about ibogaine, considering sitting with this medicine, or know someone who could benefit, this episode is a must-listen. Dr. Mash is the leading authority on the subject—and now, the newest member of the No Fallen Heroes advisory board.
Suzi and Cari McLean from Mental Joe sat down to discuss the powerful connection between family healing and the recovery of veterans and first responders. They emphasized that when one partner commits to healing, it strengthens the entire relationship, allowing them to better support their loved one’s journey. True recovery isn’t just about the individual—it’s about healing as a unit. Without addressing trauma together, moving forward as a family becomes a challenge. This conversation sheds light on the importance of collective healing, ensuring that no one walks the path alone.
In this episode of MAX Afterburner, the discussion begins with an important update: Maverick Mind Morning Brief and Night Trap microdoses are now in stock, along with new merchandise. Until the website is live, orders can be placed via email.
A major announcement follows—Dr. Deborah Mash is joining the No Fallen Heroes Foundation advisory board. Known as the "Queen of Ibogaine," Dr. Mash has been at the forefront of research into this life-saving medicine since 1993, the same year the host earned his wings of gold as a Naval Aviator. Her expertise will play a crucial role in advancing the foundation’s mission of healing veterans.
The episode also highlights a personal milestone as Suzi and the host travel to San Antonio for their son Matthew’s graduation from Air Force basic training. While in Texas, they plan to visit the bridge over the river where he proposed to Suzi on October 23, 1993—tying together family, service, and legacy.
The conversation then shifts to the tragic midair mishap involving an Army helicopter and an American Airlines regional jet over the Potomac. A detailed breakdown of the ‘links in the chain’ leading to the accident is provided, emphasizing the critical importance of experience, skill, and precision in aviation. The incident serves as a stark reminder that aviation demands the most qualified professionals in both the cockpit and control tower. The host makes it clear: Aviation is a self-cleaning oven, and DEI has no place in it—because DEI kills.
This episode delivers hard-hitting analysis and unfiltered truth.
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lance Cutsforth, an Army veteran, double board-certified Functional Medicine practitioner, and co-founder of Mons Sana, a healing community in Colorado. With decades of experience in mental wellness and optimization, Lance shares his personal and professional journey of addressing trauma, suicidal ideation, addiction, and TBI through a multi-modal approach. We dive into his work with alternative therapies and the transformative potential of entheogenic medicines. Lance’s story of lived experience and his commitment to helping military, first responders, and their families transition from surviving to thriving will inspire and challenge how you think about healing. Don’t miss this powerful conversation.
In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Whiz sits down with retired Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel Jay Kopelman to explore his harrowing journey from the horrors of combat to the depths of trauma and PTSD. Jay shares his story of survival, including an unsuccessful suicide attempt, and his life-changing experiences with psychedelic medicine—ibogaine and Bufo (toad)—that not only saved his life but healed his soul. These treatments helped him understand his relationship with his son, conquer his struggles with alcohol, and find a renewed purpose. Now, as the Executive Director of Mission Within Foundation, Jay is dedicated to helping other veterans and first responders find the same healing and transformation. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking hope, resilience, and inspiration.
In this special solo episode, Whiz takes listeners on a high-energy journey through the latest breakthroughs and milestones for the No Fallen Heroes Foundation. From the VA's long-awaited decision to fund psychedelic research (though limited in scope and funding) to unforgettable fundraisers at Trump National and Mar-a-Lago alongside partner veteran and first responder charities, Whiz leaves no stone unturned. He shares an awe-inspiring moment from the NFHF jet, flying over a healing retreat in Colorado where three grant recipients were deep in their journey with plant medicine. Wrapping up with an exciting preview of the 2025 launch of the No Fallen Heroes: Extraction docuseries, Whiz punctuates the episode with his signature rants and powerful calls to action. Buckle up for this must-listen installment!
In this episode of MAX Afterburner, Whiz sits down with Neil Markey, co-founder and CEO of Beckley Retreats. Neil shares his journey from serving as a Captain in the US Army Special Operations 2nd Ranger Battalion, with deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, to overcoming depression and PTSD during his time as a Columbia University graduate student. This struggle sparked a profound healing journey through mindfulness and psychedelics, which Neil now champions as tools for holistic well-being. Neil talks about finding a meditation practice which led to psychedelic assisted therapy. As a passionate advocate for plant-based therapies, Neil discusses the mission of Beckley Retreats to integrate science-backed psychedelic practices with contemplative traditions. His unique path also includes roles at McKinsey & Co, where he co-led a mindfulness program, and as Chief Growth Officer of a $450M private equity portfolio company. In this insightful conversation with Whiz, he explores the intersection of science, spirituality, and the transformative potential of psychedelics, inspiring listeners to embrace the miraculous in life.
In this episode, Whiz sits down with Chad McLean, an Army veteran who transformed his life after overcoming childhood and military trauma. Chad, driven to the brink by depression and anxiety, turned to Ketamine and plant medicine treatments following a life-altering suicide attempt in 2020. Through a powerful vision during his healing journey, he founded Mental Joe — an apparel company dedicated to raising mental health awareness and breaking the stigma surrounding alternative treatments.
Mental Joe’s mission is bold and clear: to spark essential conversations about mental health, provide resources to veterans and others in need, and help fund alternative healing options that transform lives. Recently, Chad’s gear, created for the No Fallen Heroes Foundation, made its debut at the Stanley Cup finals, symbolizing the power of support, healing, and resilience.

In this compelling episode of Max Afterburner, guest host Susie Buckley welcomes life coach Elise Morgan for a deeply personal conversation about healing through ayahuasca ceremonies. Together, they explore Elise’s journey through plant medicine, her struggles with trauma from miscarriages and divorce, and the powerful emotional breakthroughs that helped her reconnect with her children and herself. From navigating her first ayahuasca experience to finding peace and clarity, Elise shares insights on healing, self-discovery, and the transformative power of plant medicine. Tune in for an inspiring discussion on emotional release, spiritual growth, and how these ancient practices can lead to profound personal change.
This week, Suzi sits down with Donna Samaha to delve into her transformative psilocybin journey. Donna lost her son to an overdose and in a chance conversation with Whiz a couple years ago, she learned about potentially healing trauma with psychedelic assisted therapy. Her son was a day away from sitting with the medicine. They discuss the valuable lessons she learned and how the experience reshaped her entire outlook on life. Donna emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries and the ongoing growth and learning she embraces, even years after her experience with the medicine.
In this moving episode Whiz speaks with Gold Star sibling Andrew Glasscock. Andrew’s brother Chad was a naval aviator, flying helicopters in Guam, when he was lost a year ago. Andrew details the devasting loss of his brother and the process families go through. He tells of the lack of support for siblings and how he founded a nonprofit – Flags From Chad – to help other Gold Star siblings with their grief. A man of faith, Andrew speaks of wanting to sit with the medicine as part of his healing journey. The No Fallen Heroes Foundation provides healing grants to Gold Star family members – they served too and deserve to heal.
In this gripping popup podcast Whiz tells of his experience on 911. He takes you from packing that day for his first trip as a pilot for American Airlines to intercepting at supersonic speed an unknown contact that he potentially could’ve shot down. He debriefs this pivotal moment in his life, and in the history of this nation, and how he used this horrific tragedy to eventually find his mission of saving and changing the lives of our nation’s heroes. Some give lip service to the phrase – ‘we will never forget’. For Whiz, he means it.
Michael “Morgs” Morgan is a 30-year veteran of law enforcement who honorably served the citizens of Atlanta, Georgia, and Suffolk County, New York. In this riveting episode Morgs shares some of the heartbreaking trauma he experienced, starting with his first night as a trainee. As a warrior and law enforcement officer he was forced to compartmentalize and press forward, with each incident adding a layer of pain and trauma. The drowning of a 2-year-old child he ‘helped save’ caused unbelievable grief. Later in his career he is taken off the streets because of a back injury. He got hooked on the pain reliever Tramadol and ended up in rehab. A couple years ago he saw tier one operators on podcasts sharing their healing journeys with psychedelic assisted therapy and felt the call of the medicine. He sat with Ayahuasca in Florida, and it completely saved and changed his life. He was given a new mission to put the ladder down to help save and change the lives of other first responder heroes and their families. Follow Morg on Instagram team_morgs_inc
Suzi hosts her second MAX Afterburner podcast with Carolina Rifenbury, who comes from an Army family. Coco was part of the first No Fallen Heroes Foundation retreat in the United States held last October in the great state of Colorado. Coco’s journey was whole – loving and comforting while also very challenging at times. She realized that many of her actions in life were driven by fear when there was no need to fear. Spirit manifested itself as a beautiful white horse she rode who guided her along her journey. She briefs how her integration is what allowed her to understand the messages given to her and how she is applying these changes to her everyday life.
The FDA decision on MDMA is out. It didn’t really matter one way or the other, the psychedelic ship has sailed, and more people will look to heal with these medicines. Now it’s time to attack in parallel by focusing fire on the healing power of plant medicines like iboga (ibogaine) and psilocybin. These medicines come from Mother Earth, not a lab, and have less of a ‘stigma’ associated with them. They are not ‘fun’ or recreational. Whiz maps out next steps in the battle to heal our heroes. Fight’s On!
Jerod Napier is a retired United States Navy Senior Chief Petty Officer who served honorably as a corpsman on 4 combat deployments to both Iraq and Afghanistan, including 50 days in Fallujah as the ‘Doc’ to a Marine unit. Suffering from combat wounds – seen and unseen – he sought to numb his pain with alcohol, drugs, and women. He experienced a dark night of the soul where he sat in his truck with his Sig 229 on his lap with tears streaming onto it. A call from a brother pulled him back from the edge. He began his healing journey by exploring psychedelics intentionally with Plant Medicine and found a path to health and healing. On the medicine he was able to find healing with those he killed. He owns and operates Rising Ridge, a 508 c1a Faith Based Organization focused on healing the collective through value driven behavior and the intentional use of plant medicine. Located in Tulsa Oklahoma, Rising Ridge focuses on raising the Vibration of the collective, as well as providing a safe and sacred space for Veterans to explore alternative modalities to find their health and happiness.
In this very special edition of MAX Afterburner Suzi "Mrs. Whiz” Buckley sits down with Jamie Flemming. Jamie is married to Brian Flemming, a seriously wounded 10th Mountain Division solider who debriefed his healing journey in episode 104. Jamie bravely shares her medically monitored psychedelic assisted therapy journey and explains how she healed 30 years of childhood sexual trauma, breaking a cycle of sexual family abuse. She also tells how she got off addictive pain pills she was taking due to a car accident – after just 8 hours after sitting with ibogaine. Jamie is the personification of how these medicines can heal and change a life - a life being truly transformed. Her story will also help others see how healing is possible, no matter how deep the scars are you can be healed. Check out www.aftertraumaart.com
Former 10th Mountain Division team leader, author, and motivational keynote speaker Brian Flemming joins Whiz in the studio. Brian was involved in 2 IED attacks in Afghanistan, the second one resulting in serious injuries, burns, and PTS. He was medically discharged from the Army after 14 months in the hospital. Brian briefs Whiz how he healed significant trauma with ibogaine and 5 meo dmt along with Ponch and Slider. Make sure you listen to episode 41 where “Slider Shoots Love All Over The Room”. Brian says Bufo showed him that “everything made sense” and “it’s all so stupidly simple.” They both agree that “love is all there is, it’s our default state, and that this ‘journey’ on Earth is hell.” Brian also shares that his wife healed decades of childhood sexual assault trauma as well and that his mom also sat and healed with the medicine.

Former United States Marine aircrewman Jonathan Hipp joins Whiz to debrief his journey from Marine aviation to healing with psychedelic assisted therapy. Jonathan injured his back on active duty and transitioned to the civilian world, first becoming a pharma rep and then joining the Wall Street crowd. Neither of those jobs aligned with his old life and the core values he held dear. His back problems worsened resulting in surgeries, pain, and an opioid addiction. He started to spiral the drain and at a low moment considered taking his life – he held a gun to his hand wondering what it would feel like…and fired. His wife tried to pull him out of his hole, but he hit the bottle. When all hope was lost, the medicine called to him. You will be blown away as he describes his ibogaine journey and the expert care he received at Ambio with Trevor and his team. Listeners will hear as he experienced ego death, walked through the threshold and entered Heaven on 5 MEO DMT. Jonathan felt the presence of God, who reached down, touched his back, and he was healed. Pain drove his life for 12 years, now after sitting with the medicine, he is driving.

Just when Whiz thought he had seen a lot of healing miracles in the past several years, NOTHING could have prepared him for what he experienced at the most recent No Fallen Heroes Foundation retreat at the Do Good Ranch in Colorado. A 9/11 survivor who narrowly escaped tower 1 had suffered from a debilitating laryngeal voice disorder since that day. No doctors could explain why or treat him. Prepared to be blown away when Whiz tells you what happened with John on the medicine. And what this man purged for over an hour to heal will make you cry. 17 brave souls sat with the medicine including a man whose 21-year-old son was murdered and several female veterans who experienced MST (military sexual trauma). This podcast is NOT to be missed and will prove to listeners that these medicines have incredibly powerful healing powers.
In this episode we get ‘Solo Whiz’ where he talks about the unfortunate state of our nation and how the rise of healing medicines may save us. He talks about the looming FDA administrative committee meeting the following week where they will vote whether to recommend the FDA press forward with approving the medicine for therapeutic use. He cautions that whenever money is involved anything can happen, but with 6,000 veterans taking their lives every year in the United States we MUST try something new. He tells listeners about an awesome new addition to the leadership of Healing Realty Trust and updates the status of the docuseries No Fallen Heroes: Extraction.
The MAX Afterburner podcast hits the century mark – in this special 100th episode Whiz is joined by Daniel Carcillo, Cody Shandraw, Nicole Fox, and Suzi Buckley. The group celebrates the accomplishments since the first podcast 3 years ago, detailing the explosive growth in the healing space and with the No Fallen Heroes Foundation. Just a couple days prior to the podcast Whiz celebrated the 3 year anniversary of his first medicine experience. They share the lessons learned, good and other, and note how remarkable the journey has been. The team then makes predictions about the next 3 years in the healing space and you’ll be blown away by some of the good things coming.
Whiz is joined by Deanne Adamson, founder of Being True to You. Deanne left a career in mental health counseling to start Being True to You in 2010, the first preparation and integration coaching company for psychedelic therapies. Deanne and Being True to You have coached and trained people everywhere, including veterans and first responders. She's produced several coaching and training programs such as: Being True to You’s Transformational & Integration Coach Certification Program. She also built the Hospitality, Retreat, & Sitters Training, along with their one-year Transformational Recovery Coaching Program. Being True to You also provides preparation and integration coaching services to treatment and retreat centers using psychedelic treatments in therapeutic settings. Whiz and Deanne map out in detail the pre-trip preparation and integration required to get the most out of a medicine journey. They also talk about how to prepare loved ones as well. It turns out Deanne wrote the manual Whiz used to prepare for his first journey at the Mission Within.
Whiz knocks out a GREAT brief with Charles Patti - Chief Brand Officer for psychedelic ketamine clinic MY Self Wellness located in Bonita Springs, Florida. Charles journey began over nine years ago, navigating through personal trauma and addiction, leading to a transformative experience with the therapeutic use of psychedelics. This journey underscored the power of integrating these experiences into daily life, promoting sustained healing and self-discovery. Whiz and Charles talk about the work requried both before and after any psychedelic experience. They also talk about Charles' non profit, the Warriors of Consciousness, who helps those who can't afford healing therapy.
NHL great Kyle Quincy joins Whiz to talk about his journey from Ontario, Canada to the NHL. Quince talks about growing up playing hockey with Daniel Carcillo and how they pushed and challenged each other. He tells of his nearly 20 concussions as a professional hockey player and the resulting issues – alcohol, depression – and when leaving the NHL, loss of mission and brotherhood. Around this time his son was hit with cancer. With all of these issues swirling around, Commodore Carcillo introduced Quince to the medicine, which saved and changed his life. Kyle now owns and operates the Do Good Ranch in Colorado and plans to begin hosting healing retreats for veterans, first responders, family members, and professional athletes as Colorado moves forward with legalization.
In this explosive Whiz solo podcast he lets loose a dual rant, starting by ‘red teaming’ a report from an ‘independent nonprofit’ and their red team of the MAPS clinical trials. Whiz reminds listeners to ‘follow the money’ and questions the use of anonymous first and secondhand sources. He also wonders if it’s possible to completely remove bias from any trial (it’s not) and asks how a placebo group cannot know they didn’t get real MDMA. The report from ICER (Institute for Clinical and Economic Review) is certainly a potential threat to rescheduling the drug for therapeutic use. Whiz shifts his fire to the Biden administrations criticism of the unfortunate drone strike that killed innocent civilians, while reminding listeners we did the exact same thing leaving Afghanistan, with no one being held accountable. He opens the podcast with an update on the No Fallen Heroes universe and the simultaneous efforts underway including docuseries, Healing Realty Trust, My Crew Doses, and NuGrowth Connections.
Dr. Kristin ‘Rosie’ Barnes is back! This former F-14 Tomcat radar intercept officer turned doctor is blazing a path of healing while putting the ladder down to help others. Rosie debriefs her joint MDMA/psilocybin journey, which was basically a 1v1 dogfight with herself. MDMA is a ‘heart opener’ while psilocybin for some is more ‘internal’. She debriefs how she faced and started healing the moral injuries she incurred flying combat sorties over Afghanistan. Her incredible journey included her ‘feeling’ every armed conflict back to World War I, feeling the sheer terror of trench warfare as a young soldier. She also debriefs her ketamine experience and along with Whiz, strongly recommends this medicine as a bridge or ‘triage’ to potentially lead to deeper healing with plant medicine. Finally, Whiz and Doc agree that these healing medicines have the potential to turn warriors into peacemakers. Maybe this is a reason our government is dragging their feet to legalize these medicines for therapeutic use?
Whiz talks with Dr. J in the studio. Dr. Jonathan M. Fields, DAOM is a renowned integrative specialist, author, martial arts instructor, keynote speaker, artist, and plant medicine advocate. He owns multiple clinics in South Florida, where he specializes in functional medicine, acupuncture, mental health, psychedelics, and longevity. He's lectured at Universities, Fortune 500 companies, works with elite pro athletes, celebrities, hosts transformational retreats, formulated for public companies, lived with monks at the Shaolin Temple, writes for the American Journal of Endocannabinoid Medicine, and petitioned the DEA to reschedule psilocybin. He's also the Chief Medical Officer for NeuPath Mind Wellness, a Ketamine assisted therapy and community integration center in Delray Beach, Florida.
In this special episode Whiz speaks with a bad ass F-14 Tomcat aircrew turned doctor, Kristin ‘Rosie’ Barnes. Dr. Barnes is the Chief Medical Officer of the No Fallen Heroes Foundation. Rosie is a heroic trailblazer, entering naval aviation at a pivotal moment in the early 90s when females were finally allowed to serve in combat roles in the United States military. But the beginning of her career was marked by a senior leader telling her to hide any issues she was having. Over decades of service marred by compartmentalizing loss, trauma, and her sexuality, Rosie decided to ‘put the mask on herself’ and heal. She briefs listeners on her incredible experience with the sacred medicine Iboga which allowed her to see who she truly was – a perfect soul deserving of love. She talks about the preparation and the integration upon returning home to her partner. Dr. Barnes also discusses her current practice and how she helps others heal with a range of non-traditional modalities. She is coming back for another episode to debrief her psilocybin and ketamine experiences.
Whiz finishes debriefing his ketamine experience, highlighting that this medicine is potentially a great ‘triage’ to stabilize those in need of immediate healing. In the second half Whiz gives his ‘medicine checklist’. Just as a fighter pilot never gets airborne on a mission without going through detailed preflight planning, intelligence gathering, and checklists, those seeking to sit with the medicine should follow a similar approach. Whiz briefs how he prepared his body, mind, and soul for the medicine work and shares his lessons learned, along with lessons learned from many No Fallen Heroes Foundation grant recipients. Finally, he tells listeners about the Maverick Mind line of microdosing supplements from My Crew Doses. Listeners can discount code ALWAYS30 for a 30% discount. These supplements can help prepare the body, mind, and soul for a healing journey, as well as sustain the growth through the integration phase.
Whiz breaks this episode up in half. He debriefs what’s currently going on in the world including Biden still waiting to respond to 3 dead Army soldiers. Later in the podcast he starts debriefing his experience sitting with ketamine in Malibu with Zappy Zapolin.
Whiz and No Fallen Heroes Director of Medicine Operations Nicole Fox debrief the ‘goods’ and ‘others’ from 2023 and preview what’s ahead for 2024. Whiz also shares how the medicine reveals truth, and that truth isn’t good or bad, it just is. He shares some recent personal struggles, wanting to show that the medicine requires ‘work’ and integration in order for there to be significant healing. Nicole and Whiz tease some big things on the radar for the No Fallen Heroes Foundation and other healing projects.
After more recent ‘attacks’ from so-called religious people, Whiz digs in again to share his thoughts on being religious versus spiritual, taking issue with someone who recently said he didn’t experience God, his father, or sister Monica – but ‘demons’. He questions how religious people can be so intolerant and judgmental, believing they alone know the true way to experience God. He digs into the Gnostic Gospels and the reasons behind their exclusion from the Bible (power and money) and how the use of psychedelics predates Christianity. Whiz explores why the Gospel of Thomas for example was not included in the Bible: specifically, the gnostic themes of knowledge and self-reflection over sacraments such as baptism and Holy Communion. According to this Gospel Jesus said the kingdom of God is within and spread all around us. The focus on inner work in the Gospel of Thomas leads one to believe that the kingdom of God is not a final destination but a state of self-discovery. He reminds listeners of his love for ALL no matter their religious beliefs or what they think of him.
In part 2 with Whiz and Chicken the guys take a dive deep into the importance of integration after sitting with the medicine. Without proper integration it may only be an experience, or in some cases a negative experience. As Whiz often says – “5% is the medicine, 95% is the integration”. Chicken also briefs the importance of informing a partner or loved one prior to a journey. The change over a short period of time can be radical and those at home need to be prepared. In his leadership position and with these medicines being legal in Colorado, Chris is working to put the ladder down for the first responders he cares for. Chicken plans on being part of the No Fallen Heroes team as they look to do more healing retreats in the Rocky Mountain state.
Whiz sits with Chris ‘Chicken’ Macklin, a Colorado first responder for over 30 years who recently took part in the No Fallen Heroes Foundation’s first healing retreat in the United Staes. Chris responded to the Columbine High School massacre in 1999. He thought he compartmentalized this horror and many of the other tragedies he experienced but his trauma surfaced in several unproductive ways. By the grace of God Chris attended the Veteran and First Responder dinner over the summer in Denver where Whiz gave the keynote. Chris was deeply moved by Whiz’s healing journey and immediately called his wife – ‘I’m going to do this.’ Chicken tells listeners of the nervousness he endured pulling up to the ranch…but he pulled down the driveway and his healing journey began. Learn about his incredible healing journey with psilocybin and 5 MEO DMT.
Star of the show ‘Booze Traveler’ Jack Maxwell, and Tracy Trost, direct of American Homecoming, joined Whiz in the studio. They were in town for the No Fallen Heroes Christmas party, along with many other donors and supporters. Jack briefs about his battle with (and beating) cancer, along with his new project ‘Spirit Qwest’. He’s also agreed to sit with the medicine next year on a retreat with our heroes. Tracy briefs listeners on what is sure to be a hit show about remodeling and building homes for our nations disabled veterans.
Whiz debriefs an EPIC week in Aspen raising money for the No Fallen Heroes Foundation and Colorado Extreme, a non-profit that provides grants to underprivileged kids who want to play hockey. From Southwest Airlines, to a helicopter, to the No Fallen Heroes fighter jet, Whiz and his soon Matthew Jr flew across the country to Colorado. Whiz flew hall of famer Henrik Lundqvist of the New York Rangers, and NHL great Scottie Upshall, from the Missin Curfew podcast. The NHL alumni game was a sight to behold, and his buddy Dustin Lynch was also on hand for the weekend. Whiz also looks back at an incredible year for No Fallen Heroes and looks forward to an even better 2024.
In this very special episode Whiz REALLY lowers the average with an Army helo pilot (a little interservice rivalry) and recent No Fallen Heroes Foundation grant recipient Brent Rassat. Brent briefs his incredible service to America, serving as a tanker and then transitioning to warrant officer and the cockpit a HH-60M medevac helicopter of the 101st Airborne Division. He debriefs the harrowing flight conditions and missions in Afghanistan along with the trauma he suffered not only in combat but in his departure from the Army. After 14 years of honorable service Brent gets a handshake from a civil servant and starts to transition to civilian life. Brent tells of the tough times and how he found the No Fallen Heroes Foundation and briefs listeners of the medicine pre-flight prep, sitting with the medicine in Colorado, and his integration. After healing with psychedelic assisted therapy Brent won the war with himself and is an eagle once again.
In this controversial episode Whiz confronts some of his detractors, so-called ‘religious’ people who believe healing medicines that have been used for thousands and thousands of years are evil or instruments of the devil. He asks how being a better father, husband, and human, and how finding his faith in God again with these medicines is evil and the work of ‘satan’.

Congressional candidate LtCol Jon Myers USMC (ret) joins Whiz on this powerful episode. Jon and Whiz have known each other for over 30 years, starting their friendship at Jacksonville University. LtCol Myers exceptional career in the Marines saw him at the center of major conflicts and critical decisions. From Scott O’Grady being shot down over Bosnia (and eventually rescued with Jon’s help), to being involved in Obama and Clinton’s disastrous response (or lack thereof) to the 9/11 attack on our embassy in Benghazi, LtCol Myer often provided the right solutions and intelligence to the national command authority, only to be overruled because of politics and optics. Even after leaving active service LtCol Myers continued to serve by helping coordinate the evacuation of stranded Americans in Afghanistan, when the president was lying that no Americans were left behind. Jon is now looking to continue his service to our nation by representing the 7th district of Virginia. He covers several issues he supports, including a great idea to help veterans financially. Whiz trusts and endorses Jon and strongly recommends you do as well by pitching into the fight and donating to his campaign.

Follow Troy and Jo on Instagram (@thesoulintegrator and @jo.tinidad)
Whiz addresses the issue of 'asking for forgiveness' and how it’s not really needed – God does not make imperfect things. He covers A Course In Miracles and how it says that “forgiveness is unknown in Heaven, where the need for it would be inconceivable.” Whiz says many people who suffer in life may suffer more because they feel the need to seek forgiveness from those they believe they may have hurt or wronged. And what if they aren’t forgiven by those people? Whiz shares what he learned about forgiveness while sitting with the medicine and how it helped save and change his life – and maybe your too.
We can’t keep going on like this – war, crime, poverty, inflation, spending, political polarization, hate. Whiz tells us we’re at THE inflection point and we’re either going to rise and heal or implode and fail.

After taking a flamethrower to the 'smart money' and the 'elites' in episode 56, Whiz unfortunately is back with even more heat - runaway AI that will create hell on earth, the Nashville Christian school shooting (and insurrection?), the tragic deaths of 9 soldiers this week, the indictment of Trump, and the Wall Street Journal poll this week that shows the decline of patriotism, religion, community involvement, and having children, and the rise of Americans focused solely on money. But Whiz has the solution to ALL of these problems...is it too late?
Whiz takes a break from the medicine work to debrief an astonishing week in our nation as once again we the people are forced to bail out Wall Street. Once again, they privatize their profits and socialize the losses. Capitalism is not capitalism if it needs to be bailed out by the government, subsidized by we the people. “Capitalism without failure is like Christianity without the hell.”

Heroic Path to Light entheogenic church in Austin, Texas. This
incredible Marine, who made a decision that he was already dead, was
severely wounded at the Battle of Fallujah, suffering a Traumatic
Brain Injury (TBI). Since this was early on in the Global War On
Terrorism, the process to transition comabt vets back to regular life
was lacking to say the least. Justin ended up homeless on the streets
of New York City until a God moment when a stranger took a chance on
him. Justin got a couple suits from a veteran charity and wound up
being hired at a Wall Street firm. Following his life long mission of
service above self, Justin moved to Austin and entered the fire
service, receiving the Medal of Merit for life saving actions
responding to a plane crash on 14 March 2019. Still suffering from

responder, Justin made it through a failed suicide attempt and heard
about the book 'How to Change Your Mind" by Michael Pollan. Justin
discovered psychedelics on his own and his healing journey began.

Slider had a weapons delivery that went wrong (after doing everything 'right') that resulted in the deaths of approximately 12 innocent civilians. The resulting trauma stuck with him and as he transitioned to civilian life things began to spiral downward - alcohol, drugs, relationships, addiction, suicidal thoughts - anything to numb the pain.

In this very emotional episode Whiz talks with Scott "Pigpen" Walters, former F-14 Tomcat and F/A-18 Hornet Naval Flight Officer.

Like many in fighter aviation Pigpen was living on the edge and after a stellar 20 year career in the military, the transition to civilian life was tough. Pigpen felt called to do the medicine after hearing about the No Fallen Heroes project. On the medicine he was able to heal from the trauma of his parents divorce and their passing, finding compassion and love. He 'died' on 5 MEO DMT which gave him an incredible new perspective of the NOW and a clean start on life. Pigpen's emotional story of healing decades of pain and trauma with psychedelic assisted therapy is a MUSTlisten. Please share with anyone you know who is suffering in silence. Healing IS possible!
