443: Rick Perry—The Fight of a Lifetime

Former Texas Governor and U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry stops by to talk about two things most folks wouldn't expect in the same sentence—AI data farms and psychedelic therapy. Perry breaks down why the Lone Star State is set to become a digital powerhouse for AI server farms and what that means for energy, jobs, and infrastructure. Then the conversation turns to ibogaine—a little-known psychedelic that holds big promise for veterans and first responders battling PTSD and addiction. Texas just approved $50 million to study it, and Perry explains why.

Rick Perry is a super guy. He is a true American. Listen you will love the content.

Dig deeper into anything that can help PTSD!

Great show! First responders need to be put into this conversation big time!!! Our military is very special our first responders are as well. Yes we signed up for it but I doubt anyone that signed up really understood what we were getting into and the toll it takes on us all. Thank you for your work Mike!!!!

inspiring and eye-opening discussion on the veterans suicide rates

very genuine deep conversations that impell and invoke a really new look at the efficacy and aims of the federal classification of drugs
