Special Guest: Former Texas Governor Rick Perry
Join Marcus and Melanie on this week’s Team Never Quit Podcast for an incredible conversation with former Texas Governor Rick Perry, as we dive into everything from rodeos to revolutionary treatments for veterans.
Topics Covered:
✅ Best Bar-B-Que Spots – During a lively discussion about the best Bar-B-Que spots, the consensus was clear—Texas is home to some of the best Bar-B-Que in the world. Many memorable places were mentioned: Truth Bar-B-Que in the Heights and in Brenham. As well as Merric Meat Company in Roundtop, TX. Franklin Barbecue in Austin tops the list with its legendary brisket, while Snow’s BBQ in Lexington, helmed by the iconic pitmaster Tootsie Tomanetz, remains a Saturday morning pilgrimage for smoked meat lovers. One of Marcus’ favorite spots is Tejas Bar-B-Que and Chocolate Factory, in Tomball, TX, as well as The County Line Bar-B-Que in Waller, TX.
Governor Perry states: “Brisket and sausage – nothing else even gets close. Our Bar-B-Que is the best in the world.” But one thing is certain—Texans take their Bar-B-Que as seriously as their state pride.
✅ How Marcus & Governor Perry Met – A story of friendship, leadership, and shared purpose.
✅ Morgan Luttrell’s Helicopter Crash – The harrowing experience of Marcus’ twin brother, Navy SEAL Morgan Luttrell.
✅ Ibogaine Treatment – A step-by-step breakdown of this groundbreaking therapy for PTSD and TBI.
✅ Stanford Study on Ibogaine – The latest research and findings on this alternative treatment.
✅ Texas Ibogaine Initiative – Governor Perry’s goals to bring this life-changing treatment to Texas.
✅ Marcus & Amber Capone’s Mission – How they’re saving lives by providing funding to help over 1,000 veterans seeking Ibogaine therapy.
✅ Unbelievable Survival Story – A former vet from the third Ranger Battalion had a jump accident where his parachute didn’t open, leading to a TBI for 17 years — until he found hope with Ambio and Ibogaine treatment.
Don’t miss this powerful conversation about healing, resilience, and the future of treatment for our veterans.
In This Episode You Will Hear:
• I made that fateful statement: “Hey if you’re ever through Austin, come by and see us.” Fat chance you’re gonna get into the Governor’s mansion, right? (10:48)
• As we make progress on getting Ibogaine off of schedule 1 and through clinical trials, that facilities will have Ibogaine available to treat traumatic brain injuries. (21:14)
• There is a way to regenerate the brain. (23:22)
• If you don’t want to quit, generally speaking, you’re not gonna. (31:42)
• Ibogaine. 1 treatment. Within 48 hours the desire is gone. The withdrawals – gone. (33:32)
• Ibogaine is on schedule 1. Schedule 1 is addictive, and that is has no medical purpose. (35:56)
• The best part about this is that you can’t lie t it. (36:25)
• I tell people, “Be curious, lean into this.” (40:42)
• I think there are a lot of people who are starting clinics. Go somewhere reputable. Do your homework. Make sure there’s coaching before. (59:26)
• We spend billions of dollars in this state to treat people who have mental health issues. (61:39)
• There’s no reason why the state legislature wouldn’t go, you know what? We need to make this available. (64:57)
• I think that use of Ibogaine is another one that could have a massively powerful, positive effect on this country – I think even in the world. (69:51)
• For the naysayers and those who still are not believers, we’re gonna prove it to you. (71:00)
