Unlock the transformative power of psychedelics in the Veteran recovery movement. Discover how military-grade experience, discipline, and community are reshaping mental health treatment—beyond the mainstream.

In this candid conversation, a former Army Ranger (75th RGT), and current contractor reveals how plant medicines like ibogaine, ayahuasca, and DMT (toad) have helped him and countless veterans confront deep-rooted trauma, PTSD, and childhood wounds. He shares intimate, unfiltered experiences from his journeys—visions of rebirth, encounters with animal spirits, and profound lessons learned in the jungles of Peru and Mexico. This isn’t about escaping reality—it's about reclaiming control, rewriting your story, and forging a new path grounded in nature and community.

You’ll discover the science behind these modalities, including studies showing up to 88% reduction in PTSD symptoms. We break down how these tools are not magic bullets but catalysts for real, lasting change—when facilitated responsibly by vetted professionals. Learn why the Veterans' community leads the movement, how rites of passage, accountability, and discipline are woven into the process, and why returning to nature is essential for true healing.

This episode is perfect for Veterans, first responders, and anyone seeking alternatives to pharmaceuticals, as well as curious minds craving a deeper understanding of the spiritual, psychological, and physical healing potential of psychedelics. If you’re tired of chaos, seeking purpose, or battling unseen wounds, this conversation will challenge your perceptions and inspire hope.

Join us as we explore not only individual journeys into consciousness but also the broader societal shift—toward decentralization, community reliance, and a return to nature’s medicine. Whether you're considering your first psychedelic experience or already on the path, this episode offers invaluable insights on responsible use, integration, and the importance of brotherhood in overcoming life’s darkest battles.

MK-Ultra: The Man Who Fell, and the Files That Were Never Destroyed: On November 28, 1953, a CIA biochemist named Frank Olson fell thirteen stories from a New York hotel window. The official story was suicide. Twenty-two years later, the agency admitted he'd been secretly dosed with LSD. In 1994, his son had his body exhumed — and a forensic pathologist from George Washington University found a hematoma on his forehead consistent with blunt-force trauma before the fall.

This week we walk through Project MK-Ultra: the CIA's 20-year program to break the human mind. Sidney Gottlieb. Donald Cameron's "depatterning" experiments on Canadian housewives. Operation Midnight Climax in San Francisco. And the 20,000 pages of files that survived destruction only because of a filing error.

We also cover what Tom O'Neill spent twenty years uncovering in Chaos: the documented connections between MK-Ultra, the Haight-Ashbury Free Medical Clinic, and Charles Manson — including a parole officer with one parolee, a CIA psychiatrist with a "laboratory disguised as a hippie crash pad," and a prosecutor whose conduct should have disqualified him.

And we end with what happened in Washington two weeks ago — when forty boxes of MK-Ultra files vanished from the office of the Director of National Intelligence.

Ty and Joel explore the unsettling history of government-led experiments on unsuspecting populations, such as MK Ultra, Operation Mongoose, and Operation Sea Spray, emphasizing the ethical breaches and long-term impacts. We also critique the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, questioning the motivations behind vaccine mandates and the role of pharmaceutical companies, both inside and outside of the United States. #covid #pandemic #mkultra #anthonyfauci #vaccines #MAHA

Memorial Day special: 92 year old U.S. Marine Corps Colonel Elaine Davies. Davies was one of less than forty TOTAL women to deploy to Vietnam with the Marine Corps. Davies spent over 29 years in the Corps, originally joining in 1959. The fact that less than 40 women in the Marines ever deployed to Vietnam is extraordinary, the fact the we were able to interview one of them? An absolute privilege.

Memorial Day special: B.A.R. interviews 92 year old retired U.S. Marine Crops Colonel Elaine Davies. Davies was one of under forty TOTAL women to deploy to Vietnam as a Marine. Davies served in the Corps for over twenty-nine years, starting her service in 1959, and deploying to Vietnam in 1969 for a thirteen month rotation. A deployment she volunteered to take. For reference, 2.7 million Americans served in the Vietnam War, making her experience as a female Marine absolutely extraordinary. Clearly, putting her in rarified air.

This is episode #1 of our focus on American bio-weapons, which have been primarily used, and tested on American citizens. For FORTY years, the U.S. government tested and experimented on African American males with syphilis, gonorrhea, and chancroid. Without ever telling them that they were in an experiment, without ever providing adequate medical care, and without ever telling the men what they were infected with, or that it could have been cured. They watched as the men infected their wives, their children, and slowly deteriorated to death. The dark reality of American medicine, and how it mirrored Nazi Germany. Ty and Joel discuss!

Iran's conventional capabilities have surprised the "West," while establishment neo-cons and liberals still insist that if Iran goes nuclear, Israel and the U.S. will be destroyed. However, since Iran's capabilities far exceeded everyone's understanding, why didn't they attempt to destroy Israel with conventional weapons within the last two decades, if they were so determined to do so? Joel introduces our upcoming "bio-weapons" series with a brief investigation into ticks and the various diseases they carry (maybe by intentional design). Finally, we spend an hour investigating how the international community is handling the UAP/UFO question. Ty and Joel discuss!

The case of renowned plasma scientist Nuno Filipe Gomes Loureiro, and his fight against the $5 TRILLION DOLLAR PER YEAR mega corporations of the fossil fuels industry. The Roswell Foundation, Project Sign, Project Grudge, Project Blue Book, AATIP, and the Foreign Technology Division (a UFO/UAP back engineering program). Two pilots that claimed to transport "living" non-human entities after the Roswell "crash." Plus some news of the day. Ty and Joel discuss!

Donald Trump's uncle, Dr. John G. Trump was responsible for "reviewing" Nikola Tesla's papers after he died. In turn, not all of Tesla's papers were returned to his family. Where did the missing paperwork go? Did it go to the Trump family, and John Trump's company, the "High Voltage Engineering Corporation?" What role did the Invention Secrecy Act of 1951 play? And what penalties does the U.S. government impose on private inventors who invent models that "disturb" the current economic establishment? Ty and Joel discuss!
