  • More Than Medicine: Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy feat. Dr Mike Dow & Kerthy Fix
    Oct 14 2026

    Today, Tyler reunites with psychotherapist Dr. Mike Dow (@drmikedow) and documentary producer Kerthy Fix (@kerthyfix) for an in-depth exploration of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy. Drawing from their shared history—including filming Tyler’s televised therapy session on Teen Mom—the group unpacks how Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) reprocesses trauma, addresses treatment-resistant PTSD, and reaches root-level healing where traditional talk therapy often plateaus.

    Today's episode offers an insider look at Kerthy Fix's documentary project, More Than Medicine, highlighting real-world patient outcomes, first-responder burnout, and the systemic barriers preventing broader access to mental health care.

  • Family Preservation & Systemic Reform with Renee Gellin of Saving Our Sisters (SOS)
    Oct 7 2026

    In Part 2 of conversation, Renee and Tyler pivot toward solutions, systemic accountability, and what Saving Our Sisters (SOS) really does. Renee details how temporary crises like housing affordability and broken support networks push women toward adoption—and how providing just a few weeks of rent, basic supplies, or simple encouragement can preserve families. They also discuss human rights issues in adoption; such as sealed birth certificates, lack of informed consent, and the absence of legal copies of signed paperwork.
