Shawn sits down with Doug Collins, the newly appointed Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs. In this episode, we dive deep into his mission to overhaul the VA system—cutting bureaucratic waste, accelerating disability claims, and shifting focus toward veteran-centered care. A former Congressman, Air Force chaplain, and Iraq veteran, Secretary Collins opens up about fighting entrenched policies, his push to expand community care, and why he's exploring psychedelic therapies to treat PTSD and traumatic brain injuries. He also confronts the VA’s staggering suicide rates and outlines a bold plan to rebuild trust with America's warfighters. Secretary Collins responds to host Shawn’s frustrations with the system—including personal stories of poor treatment, lack of trust, and the failure to support veterans with traumatic brain injuries—while considering Shawn’s suggestion of a nonprofit voucher program as a possible solution.
