From F-14 Tomcats to Toad Medicine: 1 Year Inside Ambio w/ Mark "Slider" Keller
No Way Out
Keller's Early Ambio Experience
Mark Keller describes being among Ambio's first patients and evolving clinic operations.
Conor McGregor just put ibogaine and Ambio on the map with 5M+ views in 24 hours. Former Navy "TOPGUN" Mark “Slider” Keller (now an Ambio host who has guided 250+ veterans and first responders through treatment) joins his old OCS roommate Ponch to pull back the curtain on what really happens during the 5-day ibogaine + 5-MeO-DMT program. No hype, no flowing robes—just raw stories of broken men walking in suicidal and leaving reborn. From sweat lodges to ego-death “toad” experiences, neurological resets, and why big tough dudes cry every single week. If you’ve ever wondered what actually happens inside the world’s leading ibogaine clinic, this is the closest you’ll get without buying a plane ticket to Mexico.
If you or someone you love is struggling with PTSD, TBI, depression, addiction, or just feeling stuck—this episode is the most detailed, real-world look at what modern psychedelic-assisted therapy actually looks like from the people living it every day.
