The HeadRush Podcast with Paul Frase and Corey Berry takes you inside the reality of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) through the lens of football and rodeo. With firsthand experience in two of the most punishing sports, Paul and Corey share their stories, the lasting effects of head trauma, and the fight for awareness and support.
Corey Berry: Welcome to the Head Rush Podcast, and stop what you're doing.
Corey Berry: Please listen. You're going to be blown away at the message, that we're going to deliver today. It's something that happened,
Corey Berry: This morning. Believe me, you're gonna wanna listen. So, I'm Paul Fraz. I played 11 years in the NFL, and Corey Berry rode 9 years in professional rodeo. At the Head Rush Podcast, we talk about everything related to brain trauma and brain health and wellness.
Corey Berry: We focus on traumatic brain injury sustained through repeated head impacts, RHI, and repeated blast exposure for our men and women who serve in the armed forces. We talk about traumatic encephalopathy.
Corey Berry: We talk about CTE,
Corey Berry: We talk about, we cover how traumatic brain injuries can and will cause mental health issues such as depression, addiction, lack of executive function, memory loss, even suicide ideation.
Corey Berry: As well as degenerative neurological issues. Our mantra is how to cope and find hope.
Corey Berry: And we focus our energy on finding therapies and sharing hope through education by raising awareness. Corey, what happened this morning?
Corey Berry: Trump happened.
Corey Berry: Well, an executive order happened. Yeah.
Corey Berry: Trump signed an executive order, and Texas did a $50 million grant already for the study of Ibogaine.
Corey Berry: Well, Brian Hubbard of Ibogaine, or Americans for Ibogaine.
Corey Berry: the CEO, Brian Hubbard.
Corey Berry: got involved with Dr. Oz, and everybody, and Joe Rogan, they… Dr. Trump, and Trump signed an executive order today.
Corey Berry: to have the FDA
Corey Berry: Basically, the executive order was saying that it is legal to study psychedelics, and find out if they help
Corey Berry: And, it's… it's nationwide. The FDA is… they're seeking FDA approval for a medicinal purpose for, in particular, a drug… a plant-based medicine called Ibogaine.
Corey Berry: Corey.
Corey Berry: in this executive order, it was pretty… it was big time. I've never seen anything like it, and basically it over… Well, it changed the law from 1970. From 1970, which was instituted by the Nixon gang. So, yeah. What it does is it allows
Corey Berry: These psychedelics to be studied to find out how they work, And if they can help.
Corey Berry: in situations of PTSD,
Corey Berry: Addiction, one of the, one of the… Depression? Let me, let me, let… let's go into who was there behind President Trump. We had doctors, we had NIH people, we had Bobby Kennedy, we had the, the military, represented. Who were those, like,
Corey Berry: You already mentioned the one, the citizens for… Brian Hubbard. Brian Hubbard. Americans for Ibogaine CEO. Marcus Luttrell, Morgan Luttrell. Who is Morgan Luttrell and Marcus Luttrell? They're…
Corey Berry: Badass seals.
Corey Berry: They're, they're Navy SEALs, so what, what was, what was… And, and Marcus Luttrell actually has gone through the Ibogaine, and I've seen tremendous results. So, what, what, morgan's a senator. Morgan's a senator. Or a congressman. Okay, and Martin,
Corey Berry: Marcus Luttrell actually was involved in, as a SEAL in the, lone survivor. Lone Survivor.
Corey Berry: So, we're talking about people that, and then there was 2 or 3 other… Right. I think Matt was there, and then another one was there. Okay, and we're talking Dr. Oz, we're talking, two… two, bobby Kennedy, that other doctor, what, from the NIH? Yeah, and we had… there was two women, brilliant women, physicians and doctors and researchers that have been in this one.
Corey Berry: One of the doctors, women researchers, she actually was a doubter.
Corey Berry: 6 or 7 years ago, and now she's seen so much data come through, she… she's a believer, and she… she believes in studying and finding out how and how this, in particular, Ibogaine, that… this… this was a big focus. Ibogaine was a big… Well, you know how it got started. Talk to me.
Corey Berry: State of Texas, Governor Rick Perry. Right.
Corey Berry: He went through Ibogaine, and he's been working tremendously
Corey Berry: with Trevor at Ambio, with Marcus Luttrell, with…
Corey Berry: Brian Hubbard with everyone, and it got to Trump, and Trump got to hear the stories and what has changed in people's lives and the addiction, and Trump pretty said, why haven't we done this already?
Corey Berry: And interestingly, one of the questions from the press, after about a 20-minute presentation,
Corey Berry: was, well, didn't we know about this in the first administration, Trump administration? And Trump was… his answer was, well, I never heard about this. I've been hearing about this for about the last year. And did you say, Joe Rogan?
Corey Berry: I think it was Joe Rogan was the one that actually presented to President Trump recently.
Corey Berry: And and he was mentioning… Right. Yeah. Because he just had Rick Perry and Brian Hubbard on the podcast talking about Ibogaine. Exactly. And it's a huge thing for us, because Ambiel Life Sciences is sponsoring the Head Rush podcast.
Corey Berry: And me and Paul are actually gonna go to Tijuana August 3rd, and… What's the word? Partake?
Corey Berry: Well, it's, it's part… partaking in, plant-based, medicine. Right. And, and, and now, the, the…
Corey Berry: America is open. The United States and the medical field in the United States is open to finding ways to research it safely and effectively.
Corey Berry: and to find out what benefits there are. And one of the things that the president was saying is, he was saying, you know.
Corey Berry: he was asking the gentleman, the Navy SEALs, standing to his left, behind him.
Corey Berry: You've done it? Oh, how did it work? And one of the gentlemen said it saved my marriage, it saved my, saved me from divorce, it saved my children, and it saved my life. He was gonna kill himself the next week. Right. Exactly. So…
Corey Berry: Wow. And this, you know, we were talking about, it's… it was instituted 60 years ago, 50 or 60 years ago, and it was, basically to,
Corey Berry: It's been overturned, and the medical community is going to be free to study.
Corey Berry: the benefits… Or… the problems with plant-based medicine. Well, that, and it's also going into the right to try.
Corey Berry: And where you sign saying you're not gonna hold the government liable, you're not gonna hold the doctors liable, it's a right to try. But Dr. Oz said that he's gonna have it in the program by the end of the year to start testing.
Corey Berry: So, they're gonna expedite this, and really get it moving and pushing. And Trump also… Put in $50 million.
Corey Berry: towards the research. Okay. Federally? Yeah, federally. Okay. Fed… $50 million grant.
Corey Berry: further research.
Corey Berry: So, I mean…
Corey Berry: I think this is gonna move mountains. This is such a huge step forward that I just…
Corey Berry: Well, it's… it substantiates… what… What the research is showing already.
Corey Berry: Right. And it validates, okay, this research, and they've done… I mean, one of the most recent research articles, medical papers, was, I heard Chase Hughes
Corey Berry: One of the… he's, on social media, but I… he was… he was in the armed forces for a number of years, yeah.
Corey Berry: And he, talked about, Cornell did a study of, of, psilocybin.
Corey Berry: And they were able to use a tracer. They actually used the rabies… part of the rabies virus. They obviously separated it so it was not dangerous anymore, but it would actually cross the brain-blood barrier and
Corey Berry: It was used as a tracker, and it actually can show real-time dendritic growth
Corey Berry: And brain matter growth, while somebody is using psilocybin.
Corey Berry: And they also…
Corey Berry: Through that study, they, they studied the fact that… and dendritic growth could be called neuroplasticity.
Corey Berry: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, BDNF. And,
Corey Berry: BDNF, which we actually just talked with Dr. Amen about.
Corey Berry: is neither bad nor good, it just follows your lead. That's what he says, and he explained that you, if you have a positive attitude, and they should be sure if you're using microdosing or anything.
Corey Berry: Testing your psilocybin. And we are not suggesting to test psilocybin.
Corey Berry: Talk to your doctors, talk to your physicians. We are not doctors, and But,
Corey Berry: it's actually better if you're in a good mood, in a good positive mood, than a bad and negative mood. Right. Because that bad and negative mood can actually detract from the benefits that you
Corey Berry: can derive from dendritic growth, new dendrites, new connections in the brain. So when I go to Tijuana, I gotta be in a good mood. You gotta begin to get in a good mood. Dude, we're gonna be in the ocean in a beautiful…
Corey Berry: shedding, and…
Corey Berry: The other parts, I'm not too sure about. I've never done psychedelics before in my life, so I have no clue what to experience.
Corey Berry: Right, right. Well, it's… you're going to be studied… studied up on it, and we're… it's… it's nothing to go into blindly. And one of the exciting things today is that people… you… again, we heard some unbelievable stories of lives changed.
Corey Berry: And, one dose.
Corey Berry: So, Joe Rogan was talking about the opiate, epidemic, and the 80… I think he said 80,000 lives were lost in 2022 or 2021. 80,000 lives were lost to the opiate epidemic.
Corey Berry: And some of the people that are using… have used Ibogaine, in one dose, they are seeing incredible results that they don't need. They're off alcohol. One of the gentlemen, again, that President Trump asked, the one gentleman was off alcohol.
Corey Berry: off opiates, and So… Oh, heck, didn't your girlfriend, Kalen, take someone to do Ibogaine for opiates? He was on heroin.
Corey Berry: he was on heroin, and he's been totally clean after one experience with Ibogaine.
Corey Berry: One journey.
Corey Berry: One journey. One journey.
Corey Berry: So we gotta partake and take a journey.
Corey Berry: I don't think them words would have ever came out of my mouth before, but this new executive order
Corey Berry: I know a lot of people out there don't like Trump.
Corey Berry: I know a lot of people…
Corey Berry: are not liking the Maha movement.
Corey Berry: But when you can make changes that'll help.
Corey Berry: Because there's an 80% failure rate on your first time trying an SSRI.
Corey Berry: And they even talked about it in executive orders, and…
Corey Berry: Trump was like, well, they take depressants, do they work?
Corey Berry: And everybody in the background laughed. Well, actually, the media person… Absolutely. Yeah, well, no, she was listening to the doctor explain, well, sometimes the SSRI drugs work, but not always.
Corey Berry: And the media person that asked one of the questions, she piped up, and they were talking about specifically women
Corey Berry: women using SSRI drugs, and the media person piped up, and she says, nope, they don't work it, because I'm… I've been trying them, and they're… they're not working for me. It was pretty wild. Now, let's… let's go back to a disclaimer again.
Corey Berry: We're not doctors. We're not doctors. We're not physicians. We're not suggesting you go out and do psychedelics. We're not therapists. We're not therapists. All we're doing is providing you information, and we implore you to do your own research, talk to your own physicians, talk to your own doctors, and
Corey Berry: Also, there are very legitimate concerns and safety issues, when using Ibogaine.
Corey Berry: They actually, and Dr. Oz talked about it, this is… this is a drug… Two people. This is a drug that's administered in the presence of doctors, nurses.
Corey Berry: nurse practitioners, whatever the FDA, if it ever gets to approve… There's a lot of side effects. Or not side effects, there's a lot of medical that goes into it. There's health concerns, just so you know.
Corey Berry: Right now, listen to us. There are health concerns, when you are taking ibocaine specifically. I don't know about other psilocybin and other psychedelics, who knows? I don't know a lot about that.
Corey Berry: that medicine, but Ibocaine actually, if there are cardiac,
Corey Berry: issues, or if, if you're prone to a low, a low heart rate, and there's, there's all types of, things. Hearts.
Corey Berry: POTS, yeah, that's, like, an autonomic system, like your heart rate, your breathing, your temperature, the thermostat in your body, the thyroid, and all that stuff. If you have POTS, you actually are not allowed to take
Corey Berry: Ibogaine. Right. Right? That's what Chris Boyce says. That's what Chris Boyce says, and I'm not sure about the Ambio Life Sciences, we don't know all of the ins and outs and their stipulations, but the bottom line is, it's not…
Corey Berry: It's not for everyone, and you better darn sure make sure that you're… I mean, well…
Corey Berry: Well, they… First of all, no… Ambio takes you through their own medical field, they check your EEGs, they do a medical background. Echocardiograms, they have all of it, and they have doctors on-site, period. Right, and they redo your medical once you get down there. So, I mean, they… Ambio is very, very…
Corey Berry: They said it'd be worse if something went wrong there. So why would they…
Corey Berry: Well, meaning that everybody… I mean, if something went wrong, they are ultra-conservative, period. That's it. Right. Because they don't want anything to go wrong on their site, and they want… On their watch. On their watch, and they want people to, have a positive experience from their journey.
Corey Berry: So, we're not doctors.
Corey Berry: We're not suggesting… Do you actually think you get a positive experience from your journey, or do you go through a bunch of turmoil? And you know what's funny? On the Ibogaine, I watched that Ways and War on Netflix. If you haven't watched it, go watch it.
Corey Berry: you know… All these soldiers that go over, they think that they're gonna have to relive The war. Mmm.
Corey Berry: All of them are going through their childhood.
Corey Berry: Not the war. Not the war.
Corey Berry: Interesting. Any, any… yeah, I, I, I have not watched, Waves of War. Yeah.
Corey Berry: You've sent it to me probably a month ago, didn't you? Yes.
Corey Berry: Sorry. I sent you, Quad Explosions, and you watched it that night. Right. I'm sorry. Well, that's the difference between me and you.
Corey Berry: I'm gonna watch it, either on the way home tonight or whatever, so, on the plane? Yeah, possibly. Possibly. If I can, get Wi-Fi on the plane.
Corey Berry: But, again.
Corey Berry: There are safety concerns. The one company that does this throughout the world, MBO Life Sciences, they take precaution, precautionary measures. They have doctors on site.
Corey Berry: And the FDA is going to ensure, in all this studying, Dr. Oz, he's going to be involved, I'm sure, with setting up some of the studies. You have, Bobby Kennedy, you know, Bobby Kennedy, he's going to be ensuring that the program goes very smoothly.
Corey Berry: Nobody… There's gonna be a lot of back check… back-back checks, triple checks, quadruple checks, so you guys know what it takes to get FDA approval. Yeah, and there… and yeah, this is not just gonna be, pushed through without proper testing, like.
Corey Berry: some other things that were pushed through about 6 years ago. What's that? Nothing.
Corey Berry: but, this is gonna have, you know, proper FDA approval, they're gonna have the proper tests set up, and they're gonna… they're gonna be rigorous about what they do, because this is the first time it's happened in 60 or 70 years, and they're… they're going to make sure
Corey Berry: that they do it correctly, they do it right, and… And we got a mental health pandemic. Even the NIH said that. Right now, we're in the middle of a mental health pandemic, and if this can help.
Corey Berry: I mean, we're talking breaking records, and…
Corey Berry: I have not heard of any one person that came out of Ibogaine being negative.
Corey Berry: You said, it didn't work for me. Yeah, I think, I think one of the most important, well, one of the doctors that was there,
Corey Berry: stand into President Trump's right, he was mentioning some of the dire statistics of, suicide, and the… I think it was the… 80-something. I think it was the second…
Corey Berry: Largest cause of death for a certain age group.
Corey Berry: I don't remember. Yeah, well, don't quote us on anything, but, on anything. Don't ever quote us. We're not doctors. So, yeah, it was, it was a monumental day. It was really,
Corey Berry: It was quite an experience to watch an executive order
Corey Berry: That, is… has… was so controversial for years and years and years, and then the science has caught up
Corey Berry: With the controversy, and the science has validated the fact that
Corey Berry: There are too many people benefiting from their journeys
Corey Berry: Psilocybin, whatever, and the science has caught up that psilocybin actually causes dendritic growth in the brain.
Corey Berry: back up, be positive when you take a journey, or you microdose. In the microdosing, you don't take a journey, per se, but the microdosing, actually, they have proven that it…
Corey Berry: Causes growth in your brain.
Corey Berry: Right. And, So all of this scientific data
Corey Berry: Is… is piled up to the point where the FDA cannot deny
Corey Berry: The possible plausibility of plant-based medicine
Corey Berry: Being, a benefit to somebody that's taking opiates 3 or 4 pills a day, and they're in danger of losing their lives.
Corey Berry: Well, we finally got doctors that are paying attention to the Maha movement.
Corey Berry: And the Maha movement, I think, is gonna change a lot of things.
Corey Berry: Because when it comes to brain injuries, when it comes to TBIs, there's not a lot out there for help.
Corey Berry: you go look at the Dr. Amons, who will be coming on the Head Rush podcast. We filmed him yesterday.
Corey Berry: You got Mark Gordon with the Millennium Health Protocol. You got Red Light Therapy, V-Lite, with Red Light Therapy, and Peter Adams out there, and Rico Petrini.
Corey Berry: Larry Carr's a backer of the red light. All of this stuff… isn't covered by insurance.
Corey Berry: But it's been proven time and time again to work.
Corey Berry: and you look at it, there's gotta be a point to where the science is catching up, and I think with this executive order today on psychedelics, would you have ever thought that executive order would have came out saying that
Corey Berry: Yeah, let's study psychedelics and Ibogaine. - no. You hear about it in psychological experiments in the 60s and 70s, when the drugs were not outlawed. I mean, you hear about…
Corey Berry: you know, psychological tests and evaluations, and I don't think there were clinical trials, maybe they were, but probably
Corey Berry: you know, like, there was a drug that was popular, very popular, probably in the 90s and the 2000s, was, the ecstasy stuff, right? The ecstasy? I don't know. It's, I think it was, like, a crystallized heroin or something like that, but they usually… it was…
Corey Berry: I don't know if they called it the love drug or whatever, but they, you know, in psychological evaluations and psychologists would actually use it in their clinics.
Corey Berry: And and I don't… I think it was to actually use between couples and see if they could get along better than they did.
Corey Berry: off the ecstasy, I don't know. But, but this… again, the bottom line is, the scientific evidence that the plant-based medicine, the psilocybin and the Ibogaine, works for some people is overwhelmingly
Corey Berry: Robust enough
Corey Berry: for this executive order to be, overturned in, legislation from 60 years ago, and give the doctors the, the ability… To research. To research. Now, you know an executive order is only what Trump is president.
Corey Berry: Yeah, he… If another president comes in, he can rescind all the executive orders. He has to go through Congress to become law. Okay.
Corey Berry: So, his executive orders…
Corey Berry: And all presidents do them, and they do quite a few of them, and I heard about this Ibogaine executive order a few days ago. Okay.
Corey Berry: And… it came to truition today.
Corey Berry: And… it's amazing. But we also gotta remember.
Corey Berry: Executive orders can be erased by a stroke of a pen.
Corey Berry: And so… the backing of the congressman like Morgan Luttrell, like,
Corey Berry: Rick Perry's no longer in politics. Right. And the other one's in office.
Corey Berry: That have been fighting for this for years.
Corey Berry: maybe now have an avenue to take this down the road, and once the research is done, and get it legal, is my thought process, and get it through Congress.
Corey Berry: But no, it's just an executive order, people. This thing can be rescinded at the stroke of a pen by any president.
Corey Berry: And that's what people need to really understand about the executive orders. It's kind of like when Biden came in after Trump's first, he rescinded, like, 91 executive orders by the stroke of a pen.
Corey Berry: On day one, he went… Gone. Right. You know, so…
Corey Berry: The next president can do the same thing. And we got 3 years.
Corey Berry: I don't think Trump's gonna rescind his own executive order, so we got 3 years.
Corey Berry: And I think in the 3 years, we'll get leaps and bounds.
Corey Berry: And one of the things that was very interesting, because the physicians were very well represented on… Oh, dude. …at this executive… signing that executive order, and they were, very… they were welcomed and even encouraged to talk about
Corey Berry: The executive order, and one of the things was, it was pretty fascinating, because they were guarded.
Corey Berry: They were hopefully… optimistically hopeful.
Corey Berry: Right?
Corey Berry: They are… have seen enough evidence of positive results that… to know, and data, scientific data, to know this must be studied, because if we could
Corey Berry: solve an opiate epidemic, or we could solve, depression, deep depression, and we could increase the, maybe…
Corey Berry: We know SSRI drugs are 75% failure rate, And, maybe…
Corey Berry: using a plant-based medicine along with an SSRI drug.
Corey Berry: Maybe it will enhance the effectiveness of the drug. So, I'm sure all of that is going to be research. Again, this is not allowing us people to just go out and do Ibogaine. This is not the…
Corey Berry: the, like, marijuana, the medicinal marijuana. Right. Medicinal marijuana is light years ahead of where we are today with
Corey Berry: psilocybin or Ibogaine. You cannot go to a distributor, a dispensary, and say, I would like my Ibogaine now, because they just signed an executive order. No! No, you gotta do. There's a lot. There's probably years of research. I'm looking at it right here. It says on April 18th, 2026, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order
Corey Berry: designed to accelerate research, clinical trials, potential regulatory approval of psychedelic drugs with a specific focus on Ibogaine.
Corey Berry: for training mental health conditions such as PTSD and addiction in veterans. Key aspects of the executive order
Corey Berry: And associated actions include FDA acceleration. The order directs the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to expedite the review of Ibogaine and other psychedelics, such as psilocybin.
Corey Berry: for medical use. Federal funding. The administration announced a $50 million investment in federal research into Ibogaine.
Corey Berry: The Right to Try Act. The order directs the FDA and DEA to consider adding Ibogaine as a therapy under the Right to Try Act, allowing terminally ill patients access to treatment still under review.
Corey Berry: Rescheduling potential. The order instructs the Attorney General to explore rescheduling psychedelics
Corey Berry: that successfully complete the FDA Phase 3 trials.
Corey Berry: Veterans Focus. The initiative is driven by reports from U.S. military veterans who have found success treating combat-related PTSD with Ibogaine in foreign clinics.
Corey Berry: background and context. Legal status. As of the order, Ibogaine is classified as a Schedule I substance…
Corey Berry: In the U.S, making it largely illegal and restricting research.
Corey Berry: Advocacy. The move followed advocacy from high-profile individuals, including podcast host Joe Rogan and former Texas Governor Rick Perry.
Corey Berry: Safety concerns. While proponents highlight its efficiency, Ibogaine carries risk
Corey Berry: of heart rhythm issues, and the FDA has not yet approved it in any therapeutic use due to limited safety data. In state action, the federal move
Corey Berry: complement state-level initiatives such as the 2025 Texas law that allocated $50 million for similar research.
Corey Berry: The order is seen as a major shift in federal policy, with advocates declaring an end to the federal prohibition in psychedelic medicine research.
Corey Berry: So that's it in a nutshell. That's great, thank you for reading that. That was, that was fantastic. And it was really, really cool to witness. I haven't seen a lot of government,
Corey Berry: government official business. I don't sit there and watch, cable TV and watch the…
Corey Berry: You know, and I don't watch a lot of the news, and it was really fascinating. If you… if anybody has the opportunity to Google or… or look on YouTube, I'm sure it's… Oh, yeah, you can go to Fox News, CNN, you can go anywhere and watch it. Right, it was pretty fascinating. And watch the whole thing. It was about 15 or 20… Go to Head Rod's podcast, it's on it. In the… what? We have the,
Corey Berry: Do we have a link? Do we have a link already? Yeah, Chris already put it in. Really? Yeah. My wife was texting Chris while it was happening. Go to HeadRush Podcast, website, right? Head Rush? No, not the website, Facebook.
Corey Berry: Facebook, go to the Headwasher Podcast, Facebook, and you can actually watch it. And while you're there, click, like, share, follow, subscribe, comment.
Corey Berry: And if you have any questions, let us know, and we'll answer them. We answered the question on guardian caps on what we thought about guardian caps. Yeah, that they're safe, and they're… no, no, what does… sorry. Sorry, I digress. I digress.
Corey Berry: Guardian Caps.
Corey Berry: do not protect children or adult NFL players from sustaining head trauma and repeated head impacts. Thank you. Period.
Corey Berry: It's sneak oil. Yeah, exactly. You can put a tank on your head.
Corey Berry: But your brain is still gonna move. Anthony Davis from the… he was the Notre Dame killer from USC, he was in Quiet Explosions, he was… he's been a client of Dr. Amon's for 19 years. Yep.
Corey Berry: Yeah, so… Dr. Amen's seen 300 to 400 NFL patients? Right. Yeah, he's done, almost 400, spec scans.
Corey Berry: And he said they're not good. What did he say about the rodeo, oh, man, it ain't good. It ain't good.
Corey Berry: he's got quite a few of them, and he just says all of them ain't good.
Corey Berry: But… But he hits the… he said.
Corey Berry: it can be better. We don't have to expect the brain… accept the brain we have right now, we can get better. Now… Did he say it will get back to normal? No, no, he said emphatically, to your point.
Corey Berry: He… you'll never get back to when… what you were like at 20 or 30 years old.
Corey Berry: but you can make it better than what it is. If… if you follow the right regimen, you give… give it a neuro-permissive,
Corey Berry: environment, so you could give it the nutrients. Cognitive thinking. He talked about omega-3s, he talked about a multivitamin, he talked about, some… Brain boost. Yeah, yeah. Neurotropics, or whatever you would talk about. It explained that to help
Corey Berry: feed the brain what it needs, so… Speaking of neurotrophic system, my NeuroShield should be in the post office.
Corey Berry: Oh, I'm sure you… From Dr. Gordon! That's right, Millennium Health Sciences. At Millennium Health Store?
Corey Berry: dot com.
Corey Berry: And if you put in HeadRush91, and you put the code in, you get a discount. Exactly, yeah. And in TBIHelpNow.org.
Corey Berry: You can get to that, store, Millennium Health Store as well. Also go to…
Corey Berry: StopCTE.org. Our friends at Don't Knock It, StopCTE.org, the Patrick Risha,
Corey Berry: Awareness for, Foundation for, CTE Awareness. And they got it.
Corey Berry: Well, they did us, and interviewed us for the coaches. Yep, yep, they have it. Go on there, stopCTE.org, and go on their website, and they have so much information. They have a comprehensive website about CTE, how you can learn to live with it, and how you can learn to avoid it.
Corey Berry: Getting it, they're great. Paradise Behavioral Health, our doctor, Mizell DeMaio.
Corey Berry: She is… she does the Brain Wealth program, she's coming out with some AI technology that, incorporates the Millennium Health, protocol and, her Brain Wealth… Brain Health, brain…
Corey Berry: well, program.
Corey Berry: Gosh. Lord.
Corey Berry: I need some more… I need some more of that. Anyway…
Corey Berry: And so, we're, we're just excited. Obviously, our, our new sponsor, Ambio Life Sciences.
Corey Berry: Anybody else right now? We're, we're talking to, v-Lite, for me. V-Lite. That's for me. Okay, for the red light therapy, you know, so… And if you go to StockCTE.org.
Corey Berry: Oh, gosh.
Corey Berry: Wall's face is on the very front. Biting a gummy bear. Just kidding.
Corey Berry: Just kidding. Hey, you… Oh, I just… This has been a fantastic episode, and a very informative episode. Again, we're not doctors, we're not suggesting you go out and try Ibogaine, psilocybin, or anything without talking to your physicians, your doctors.
Corey Berry: Whoever your healthcare professionals are.
Corey Berry: They're… we're… we're…
Corey Berry: We're to the moon and back about this executive order, and the fact that data, scientific data, has been robust enough to
Corey Berry: spur on this executive order to increase research nationwide. And interestingly, you know, President Trump mentioned something, that this is gonna open doors, probably worldwide, for many other countries… Oh, yeah. …who are interested in studying
Corey Berry: Right. We lead the way, like the Army. Rangers lead the way. If you're a U.S. Ranger, that's what my brother always said, Rangers lead the way. And so, America leads the way on this one, and, well, on most things, but on this one, yes.
Corey Berry: I do want to give a special shout out to Mack Parkman, September 16th, and… Bruce Parkman, father, Mack Parkman Foundation? Right, they're having their,
Corey Berry: Third annual? Third annual. Annual International Summit
Corey Berry: in Tampa Bay, Florida, September 16th and 17th.

Corey Berry: You're gonna see me and Paul Fraz at a celebrity softball game, fundraiser. In Dallas, right? Or… Frisco. Frisco? Yeah, we're gonna go to Frisco, Mike Dempsey will be there, Jim McMahon will be there.
Corey Berry: A lot of guys will be there. Are we gonna… are we gonna do an episode of the Head Rush podcast, or no? He gave us permission to. Did he? Yeah, we just gotta get it scheduled. Okay, alright. And put up our banners, and if you want to donate to the Head Rush Foundation.
Corey Berry: We're working on building the website right now. If you want to donate, you can reach out to myself or Paul, and we can send you a PayPal link, and you can donate. And I think TK Klun, don't quote me on this, I gotta get the specifics, but if you donate…
Corey Berry: $50,000 or something like that, you get free tickets to the fundraiser that we're doing.
Corey Berry: For TK Klun at the baseball game. Right, and and… And a meet and greet with all the other superstars. So, regarding the Head Rush Foundation, we are, IRS approved, we have the designation letter, we are a complete 501c3.
Corey Berry: foundation. So you will get your write-off. Right. And if one of our Texas friends is a multi-millionaire and wants to donate about 50 acres, we're looking for a 50 to 100 acre place to build a neural
Corey Berry: rehab facility,
Corey Berry: That brings in TMS, that brings in red light therapy, that brings in vestibular therapy, that has a doctor come and visit them, and people can come and stay for a length of time to get better and learn their diet.
Corey Berry: And that's what, that's what our big audiences… And spiritual. And spiritual, as well, yeah. What were the four circles? Gosh, it was a spiritual, biological,
Corey Berry: Hmm, there were two other circles for, Dr. Amon. I forget them. I'm brain dead. We'll go back to that soon, so… Pay attention. Dr. Amon is coming on the head rush.
Corey Berry: podcast. Yes, it was excellent. We talked with him, Mo Budget Friday. We talked with him Friday. He will download, I think, the end of May.
Corey Berry: We got Mark Gordon coming on May 11th, and we got Trevor… we got Trevor April 27th, we got Trevor Millar.
Corey Berry: From… Ambio Life Sciences. Ambio Life Sciences, that just got the executive order, and he is coming on our podcast in…
Corey Berry: in a week. And in Ambio Life Sciences, they actually were involved with 20 SEALs that started in Stanford and gave the… they joined a clinical trial, and then they went down with Ambio Sciences to their… I could think they have 3 clinics in Tijuana, Mexico, and they had their journeys, and then they came back.
Corey Berry: to Stanford.
Corey Berry: to do their scans, their brain scans, and all sorts of testing, and so on and so forth. So it's pretty much the first clinical trial that was ever run, but because they had to leave the site from Stanford and go down to Mexico and come back, I don't know how that works, but the bottom line is that that was the clinical indications that
Corey Berry: that this Ibogaine, this plant-based medicine worked for many of those seals, if not all of them, I'm not sure. I haven't read the… I haven't heard of any failure rates. Right, right. So, I mean…
Corey Berry: I'm… I'm excited to go down there,
Corey Berry: And… partake, and take my journey.
Corey Berry: My therapist is very excited for me to go do it. Crystal, she thinks it's gonna be miraculous for me.
Corey Berry: So, I keep looking at your face right here, and the play button while your mouth is open. It's perfect. Go to StopCTE.org and look at this picture, folks. StopCTE.org. And look at the picture right on the front. Don't knock it. Thank you, Karen and Doug Ziegel.
Corey Berry: That's awesome, we love you, we thank you, you're awesome.
Corey Berry: They're with us for another year.
Corey Berry: Paradise Behavioral is with us for another year. Millennium's with us for another year. Right. And Ambio is now with us for a year. Right.
Corey Berry: Right, and we're… and V-Lite is, with us for another… No, no, V-Lite is with me. Okay, and then… and then when we see the, we review the results of, your therapy? Oh, yeah, when I get the V-Lite, let me tell you, you'll see it on Facebook. Right.
Corey Berry: I'll be opening up the package, I'll wear it when we do a podcast, I'll bring it in and put on the helmet and the nose clips to show you what it looks like.
Corey Berry: I'm excited to see what that does, because that affects the… Mitochondria, which are the little battery packs, or little power stations in every one of our cells, right? The red light therapy helps support the mitochondrial.
Corey Berry: mitochondria, and it helps actually rid the body, or the brain, in particular, of waste and inflammation, among a hundred other things. So, and they've had some awesome results from, some of their trials. So,
Corey Berry: To the point where, well, we'll, we're discussing, with, one of their doctors behind their science, soon.
Corey Berry: we'll have them on a podcast as well, so… And you're even working on trying to get red light therapy approved for the 88 plan in the NFL? Well, yeah, there's a situation where we might be able to get some help with the funding and get some help, much-needed help to guys
Corey Berry: That are suffering from the effects of repeated head impacts.
Corey Berry: Throughout the NFL, alumni. And what is that 88 plan? Well, it's a… it was a plan instituted, I think, in one of the recent… not… well, last… Is that from Troy Aiken, 88? Yeah, no, that was, his receiver, wasn't it? No, no, number 80.
Corey Berry: Who was his… Jerry Rice is number 80. Michael Irvin. Michael Irvin, was he 88 or 80? I don't… 80 was Jerry Rice. So, well, Michael Irvin, was he 88 for the Dallas Cowboys? He won… he won 3 Super Bowls, too, just like Jerry Rice.
Corey Berry: Anyway. But we got to,
Corey Berry: Get it figured out. Alright, listen.
Corey Berry: This has been a great, great victory for medicine, plant-based medicine, and let's see what the research finds. Let's,
Corey Berry: We're, excited about the potential, positive research that, they're gonna, they're gonna scientifically, find, period. There's no more
Corey Berry: Guessing there'll be no more… But this ain't a miracle drug. No, no, no, it's not. No, it's not.
Corey Berry: We're not doctors, we're not telling you to go… We're not therapists. We're not therapists, we're not telling you to go to… We're just normal guys. We're normal people, and we're telling you if you have any questions… Hold it, did you say we're normal people?
Corey Berry: Well, we're normal people that have been affected by 20,000 hits.
Corey Berry: In the head. But go to… talk with your… do your own research, talk to your physician, your family physician, whoever you use as your physician, and talk about the possibilities, and talk about this science. And again.
Corey Berry: This is research. This is only research, but it's… the door has been opened up for some of the scientific data that is validated, the fact that this needs to be researched.
Corey Berry: So, the doors are open, and it's time for a lot of these research physicians… I think the doors didn't just open, they got kicked open and wide open, and they're… you just… I just read it, the FDA is on, expedited review. Right, yeah. And they want to get it to the veterans, they want to get it to…
Corey Berry: The people that need it, they want to get it to people like me, you know.
Corey Berry: So… I'm not a veteran.
Corey Berry: But they want to get it out there.
Corey Berry: Time for me to go to the airport.
Corey Berry: You gotta fly to Tampa?
Corey Berry: Jacksonville.
Corey Berry: So, we were talking about your…
Corey Berry: Jacksonville. How many NFL players are in Jacksonville? There's probably 40 to 50 that have retired from Jacksonville that live in the Northeast Florida area, I would say. I think… I think there's probably, with the Orlando, Daytona.
Corey Berry: Tallahassee area, maybe the Panhandle, there's probably 150 to 200 NFL retired athletes.
Corey Berry: Probably. And how many's in your retirement… what is… what is that,
Corey Berry: retirement thing called, the 888 plan? No. Your retirement… The NFLPA, the NFL… NFLPA. Players Association alumni. Okay. Yeah, yeah. And how many's in that in Jacksonville?
Corey Berry: I think… I think we have, like I said, about 45… 45 guys that live in that area, 45. And Michael, who's been messaging us like crazy down in Houston, is part of the NFLPA down there.
Corey Berry: Down in Houston, or right here in Dallas? No, down in Houston. Oh, okay. Okay. I'd like to find out… you can make a phone call, find out about the NFLPA plan here in Dallas, couldn't you?
Corey Berry: Oh, yeah. I mean, I thought, I thought Crystal was working… our therapist was working for, with one… one of the, former Dallas Cowboys. Working with a couple of them. Yeah.
Corey Berry: So… She's, dallas Cowboys need a lot of therapy.

Corey Berry: I know… I've never used it, but I know, it's… I've never understood the concept of it.
Corey Berry: Pushing more fluid up into the brain, so the brain has more cushion to slosh back and forth, but when you do that to the brain, it's gonna hit the side of the skull, and it's gonna damage your
