Mayim Bialik's Breakdown

Mayim Bialik

Consciousness. Spontaneous healing. UAPs. Near Death Experiences. Manifestation. Psychic phenomena. Angels. Nothing is off limits if it can be approached with curiosity and rigor. MBB started as a conversation about mental health — and quickly became something much bigger. Because the deeper you go into what it means to be human, the faster you run into questions science hasn’t fully answered yet. Hosted by neuroscientist and cultural icon Mayim Bialik and spiritual explorer Jonathan Cohen, MBB is a multi-award-winning podcast where science and spirituality meet. Together they break down the assumptions, the misperceptions, and the boundaries between disciplines — and every breakdown is a breakthrough. This is where the biggest questions get taken seriously — and where you realize you’ve never been alone in asking them. Can the mind actually heal the body? Can quantum physics explain psychic phenomena? What do Near Death Experiences reveal about the nature of consciousness and the seat of the human soul? What if the only thing separating you from your own intuition - or even God - is the assumption that it’s out of reach? And if governments are publicly acknowledging the existence of UFOs, what does that mean for the future of humanity? These are the questions Mayim Bialik's Breakdown asks every week.

    Part Two: Insiders Swear Alien Bodies Are in the Lab. Astrophysicist Investigates UFOs, & DMT | Neil deGrasse Tyson

    World-renowned astrophysicist Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson (Author of Take Me To Your Leader: Perspectives on Your First Alien Encounter) returns to the Mayim Bialik's Breakdown studio for one of his most mind-bending conversations yet, covering UFOs, aliens, consciousness, near death experiences, secret government speculation, DMT entities, Antarctica’s hidden lakes, and what humanity may discover beyond Earth. Neil reveals why he REFUSED an invitation to inspect an alleged alien body and explains what most people get wrong about extraterrestrials. He shares his biggest problems with how aliens are portrayed in Hollywood, why alien life may not need to be silicon-based, and whether stories about reverse-engineered UFO technology (including theories involving the Wright Brothers) hold any scientific weight. He also addresses the mysterious deaths and disappearances of U.S. scientists connected to nuclear research and aerospace programs, and whether any of it could realistically be tied to nonhuman intelligence, UAPs, or classified technology. The conversation goes even deeper into consciousness and altered states. We explore the controversial DMT laser protocol experiments and why so many experiencers report seeing the same “source code,” encountering entities, communicating with departed souls, or entering what feels like other dimensions. Neil explains the scientific evidence he would require before accepting out-of-body experiences or near death experiences as real phenomena existing outside the brain. He also reveals why he has never used drugs, why he does not believe consciousness survives bodily death, and breaks down his fascinating “3 varieties of truth” framework for understanding reality itself. Plus: - What Neil deGrasse Tyson hopes humanity’s first contact with aliens would actually look like - How aliens & UFOs became mainstream cultural topics - Why he wanted to become part of the alien conversation - Whether underground lakes beneath Antarctica could serve as models for icy alien oceans elsewhere in the solar system - Future of astrobiology, extraterrestrial discovery, & human understanding of consciousness This is one of the deepest and most controversial discussions Neil deGrasse Tyson has ever had on aliens, UFOs, DMT, consciousness, near death experiences, and the search for life beyond Earth!

    Introducing The #1 Pharmacist: Creatine, Greens, Electrolytes, What's Worth Buying and What Isn't from The Tamsen Show. Follow the show: The Tamsen Show Managing menopause and perimenopause symptoms is hard enough without a supplement market flooded with products promising to fix hair loss, trouble sleeping, hot flashes, mood fluctuations, skin changes, and so much more. It can feel impossible to know what actually helps and what is just a waste of money. Today's guest on The Tamsen Show, Phil Cowley, has spent 22+ years behind a pharmacy counter watching people walk in confused, overwhelmed, and chronically under-informed. He has seen firsthand which treatments work, which are a waste of money, and what the medical system has been getting wrong about hormones since 2002. Now he is joining Tamsen Fadal to tell the truth that women deserved to hear decades ago. In this episode, Tamsen and Phil cover: - The three supplements worth actually spending money on in midlife and why they will not break the bank - Why anxiety is a depletion of something, not an excess, and what that means for how you treat it - What the 2002 Women's Health Initiative got wrong and why women who came off hormone therapy die younger than those who stayed on it - The real reason your body odor changes in menopause, what is happening at a bacterial level, and exactly how to fix it - Why hair loss in menopause is never one problem and why treating only one cause never works - Why losing lean muscle mass is the single strongest predictor of early death and what to do about it - The $7 estrogen alternative your pharmacist already knows about - Why caffeine does not give you energy, it just hides that you are out of it - The one question to ask your pharmacist that most people never think to ask - Generic versus name brand medications and the manufacturer variance that could be affecting your results This episode is full of answers to questions most women have never thought to ask, but absolutely need to know.

  4. Every Ancient Civilization Agreed: Your Soul Chose This Life Before You Were Born

    Every Ancient Civilization Agreed: Your Soul Chose This Life Before You Were Born

    What if your struggles, heartbreaks, illnesses, relationships, and biggest challenges were never random, but lessons your soul chose before you were born? In this very special episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Mayim and Jonathan investigate one of the most controversial spiritual ideas ever discussed: Earth School — the theory that Earth is a classroom for the soul, and that every experience in your life has a deeper purpose. Near death experiencers around the world report strikingly similar revelations: - Choosing their lives before birth - Seeing a life review after death - Discovering a hidden purpose behind suffering - Learning that consciousness may survive physical death But that's only the beginning. Ancient civilizations separated by oceans, languages, and thousands of years all appear to describe the same mysterious journey of the soul. Could Plato, Tibetan mystics, Kabbalists, Buddhists, Hindu sages, and modern NDE survivors all be pointing toward the same hidden truth? We're breaking down: - Shocking NDEs that reveal life as a "school" - Why many NDE survivors return convinced they chose their challenges - Ancient story of a man who died, returned, and described souls selecting their next lives - Forgotten biblical teachings about reincarnation that were later rejected by church authorities - Tibetan, Buddhist, Hindu, Greek, and Kabbalistic traditions that describe the soul's evolution - Mysterious phenomenon of children who remember previous lives - Scientific research investigating NDEs & consciousness beyond death - Why suffering may be a lesson, not a punishment - Theory that humanity may be part of a much larger cosmic experiment - Whether Earth School is spiritual truth...or humanity's greatest coping mechanism Whether you're a skeptic, spiritual seeker, philosopher, or simply wondering why you're here, this conversation will challenge everything you think you know about life, death, and the journey of the soul. If life isn't happening TO you—but FOR you—what lesson are you here to learn? Class is in session.

    Part Two: The First Navy Pilot To Testify Before Congress On The Daily UAP Near Misses, Carrier Tracking, And Why This Is Becoming The Next Challenger | Ryan Graves

    Former U.S. Navy F/A-18F pilot Ryan Graves reveals what REALLY happened behind the Pentagon’s UFO disclosures, and whether the newly released UAP files are hiding something even bigger. As one of the most credible voices in the UFO/UAP conversation, Graves breaks down shocking encounters military pilots experienced firsthand, including near mid-air collisions with unexplained objects described as “a cube inside a sphere,” mysterious black triangles, and even a bizarre “15-foot disco ball” spotted in restricted airspace. On this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, he explains why elite military radar systems suddenly started detecting anomalies pilots couldn’t even see with their own eyes, and why many aviators feared they might crash into these unidentified objects during missions. Ryan also dives into the infamous Tic Tac UFO and Gimbal UFO incidents involving David Fravor, how military leadership allegedly kept the phenomenon quiet for years, and the terrifying realization among pilots that these encounters were happening far more often than anyone knew. The biggest unanswered questions: - Where are these objects coming from? - How are they operating? - Why do they appear to defy physics? - And why does the government still seem unable (or unwilling) to explain them? Graves explains how highly trained military pilots are uniquely qualified witnesses due to their professionalism, emotional control, and advanced observational training, making their testimonies impossible to casually dismiss. He also reveals why so many commercial and military pilots are still afraid to report UAP sightings despite the fact that commercial pilots reportedly witness unexplained phenomena up to 5 times per day. Ryan shares disturbing patterns involving UAP activity near nuclear sites, reports of craft moving seamlessly from air to water, and accounts of objects seemingly reacting intelligently to pilot maneuvers. He opens up about the personal and professional consequences of speaking publicly about UAPs, what finally pushed him to come forward, and why he founded Americans for Safe Aerospace (ASA) to create a secure environment for pilots and military personnel to report encounters safely. Ryan also explains how investigators separate credible data from misinformation, rumors, and internet hoaxes while building serious scientific and national security frameworks around the UAP issue. If even a fraction of these encounters are real, the implications are massive...

    Re-Air: Raven-Symoné & Miranda Pearman-Maday. Feel Better In Your Skin

    In honor of Pride Month AND PTSD Awareness Month, we’re revisiting an awesome episode from 2022 with Raven-Symoné & her wife Miranda Pearman-Maday (content creator, producer, writer, doula)! They joined us to discuss defense mechanisms, their individual therapy journeys, and the confining nature of labels when it comes to sexuality and gender. They explain how their sexualities protected their true identities and their struggles with depression. Raven opens up about her past relationships with people with narcissistic tendencies, her parents’ reservations about therapy, and her PTSD and anger challenges. She and Mayim bond over their strikingly similar coping mechanisms from having grown up as child actors, their abilities to read others, and how celebrity can heighten people-pleasing tendencies. Miranda reveals how somatic therapy has helped her, and Raven shares her positive experiences with shadow and energy work.
