  • In honor of Men’s Mental Health Month, we’re revisiting an episode we’ve always been proud of from 2022 with Charlamagne tha God (host of the widely popular radio show, The Breakfast Club, bestselling author, philanthropist) as he discusses his journey to discovering his true self apart from his famous radio persona, how CBT therapy taught him to unlearn, and his positive and frightening encounters with the spirit realm. He opens up about his history with panic attacks, the vigilance he developed while selling drugs, and how anxiety can sometimes be his superpower. Charlamagne details growing up Jehovah’s Witness, why he believes God is a woman, and the origins of his dark sense of humor. He explains why he uses his authentic, unapologetic voice to touch on touchy subjects especially around mental health gaps in the Black community, including the intergenerational trauma and institutional racism that can prevent minorities from seeking support. Mayim and Charlamagne consider anxiety around returning to our hometowns and bond over their love for Marvel comics and Judy Blume books.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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...

  • 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.

  • What if EVERYTHING we know about reality is missing a deeper operating system?

    In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Brian Keating (professor of physics, experimental cosmologist, and host of the Into the Impossible podcast) dives into the biggest unanswered questions in science, consciousness, God, the Big Bang, extraterrestrial life, simulation theory, and the hidden limits of human knowledge.

    Dr. Keating breaks down:

    - Why humanity NEEDS a Grand Unified Theory before we can ever reach a true “Theory of Everything”, and how scientists are trying to uncover the operating system of reality itself

    - “A telescope is a time machine”: How looking into deep space is literally looking backward through time toward the origins of existence

    - Shocking scientific and philosophical implications of the Big Bang, and the terrifying question: What was BEFORE time?

    - Could another universe have collapsed to create ours?

    - Why studying space-time itself may unlock secrets hidden before the beginning of the universe

    - Why the Big Bang explains the expanding universe, and where modern cosmology still breaks down

    - How Dr. Keating reconciles being both a scientist & a person of faith

    - Can God & science coexist? How God may tie into the creation of the universe through a scientific lens

    - Why God’s existence should not be subjected to scientific testing

    - Hidden limits of both religion AND scientific data

    - Where consciousness may actually come from according to modern physics

    - Why the role of scientists is not to “prove” things

    - Why even world-famous scientists secretly struggle with imposter syndrome

    - Deistic implications of the Simulation Hypothesis, and whether reality itself could be engineered

    - Search for extraterrestrial life: why we still have ZERO confirmed evidence despite viral claims

    - Debunking alleged “signs of life” on Mars and separating science from speculation

    - His take on the mysterious deaths and disappearances of U.S. scientists connected to nuclear & aerospace research

    - Could unexplained events be connected to UAPs, nonhuman intelligence, or classified technology?

    - Cattle mutilations, alleged energy weapons, and why unexplained phenomena always breed suspicion

    - Why uncertainty is one of the most dangerous (and fascinating) forces in human civilization

    This episode explores the edge where cosmology, philosophy, consciousness, religion, and the unknown collide.

    If you’re fascinated by the Big Bang, aliens, simulation theory, UAPs, consciousness, physics, God, or the future of humanity, this conversation will completely change how you think about reality itself!

    In this unforgettable episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Zarna Garg reveals the raw, shocking, and deeply inspiring story behind her rise, from fleeing tradition under unimaginable circumstances to becoming one of the boldest voices in comedy today.

    After losing her mother, Zarna made a life-altering decision overnight—running away from an arranged marriage and surviving by couch surfing for 2 years. What kept her going? A surprising legacy of kindness her mom left behind that saved her life.

    From immigrating to America with nothing, to redefining her identity on her own terms, Zarna shares what America truly means to her and why she believes destiny had a hand in her success.

    She opens up about love, loss, and rebellion - how she navigated dating solo (including her wildly unique online dating ad!) and ultimately found her perfect match.

    Encouraged by her own kids, Zarna took a leap into stand-up comedy...and never looked back. Today, she’s breaking stereotypes, pushing boundaries, and challenging cultural norms with every punchline.

    Zarna addresses the backlash she faced for performing at the Riyadh Comedy Festival—and why she did it anyway, hoping to inspire women in marginalized communities.

    She gets real about the tough questions:

    - Did her father’s death change how she sees karma?

    - Why should you NEVER ask your partner “what are you thinking?”

    - Is Western culture completely misunderstanding yoga?

    - Are beauty standards harsher in India or America?

    Plus, her hilarious takes on:

    - Growing up influenced by American culture & sibling birth order

    - Why she loves Mayim's "Amy Farrah Fowler" character from The Big Bang Theory

    - Balancing cultural pride without “demonizing” her roots for Western audiences

     Zarna also shares her powerful belief that ALL religions hold value, and how she’s built her own philosophy by taking the best from each.

    This is more than comedy. It’s survival, rebellion, identity, and destiny...all wrapped in one incredible story you don’t want to miss. Her perspective might completely change how you see culture, courage, and what it really means to choose your own life!

  • Dr. Rick Doblin (founder and president of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, and one of the most influential figures in psychedelic science) returns to Mayim Bialik's Breakdown for one of the most controversial and eye-opening conversations on psychedelics we've had yet.

    From the shocking experiment where scientists gave MDMA to an octopus, to why ibogaine may be the most powerful AND dangerous psychedelic ever studied, this episode explores the future of psychedelic therapy, trauma healing, addiction recovery, policy reform, and human consciousness itself.

    We break down Trump’s new executive order accelerating psychedelic research and what it could mean for the future legalization of psychedelic-assisted therapy in America. Dr. Doblin explains why veterans suffering from PTSD and disabilities have become central to bipartisan support for psychedelics, and why this issue is now reshaping politics on both sides of the aisle.

    We also dive deep into ibogaine: its mysterious origins, its ability to help reset opioid addiction, its connection to ancestral memory and intergenerational trauma, why it carries serious risks, and why Dr. Doblin still believes its benefits may outweigh the dangers. He also shares his own profound ibogaine experience that helped him confront perfectionism and his fear of death.

    Dr. Doblin discusses:

    - How psychedelics help people integrate trauma

    - Why psychedelics are generally considered non-addictive

    - Difference between recreational vs therapeutic psychedelic use

    - Why psychedelic treatment should be customized to each patient

    - Importance of integration, peer support, and paying attention to dreams after treatment

    - Measures of success in MDMA-assisted couples therapy

    - Origins of the opioid epidemic

    - "Psychedelic churches": How organizations are openly operating under the umbrella of religion

    - Capitalism vs democratizing the benefits of psychedelic medicine

    - How a better psychedelic therapy model could be built

    - Why transparency is critical for science-backed drug policy reform

    - When psychedelics may realistically enter the open market

    - Dr. Doblin’s long-term vision for a psychedelic-informed public

    As psychedelic research rapidly expands worldwide, this conversation explores the science, politics, risks, ethics, and revolutionary potential behind one of the fastest-growing movements in mental health and medicine!

  • What if EVERYTHING you’ve been taught about science, consciousness, and even your own thoughts…is incomplete?

    In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Robert Edward Grant (renowned polymath, inventor, entrepreneur, mathematician, philosopher, host of the series Code X on Gaia.com) pulls back the veil on reality itself, revealing why millions are feeling an intense shift right now as humanity crosses into the Age of Aquarius. This isn’t just spiritual talk - it’s a radical fusion of math, physics, ancient wisdom, and consciousness that will leave you questioning everything.

    Why are so many people experiencing massive life transitions right now?

    Is the universe actually NOT material?

    Are your thoughts even happening inside your brain, or somewhere else entirely?

    We go deep into the hidden patterns that connect numerology, astrology, mythology, and sacred geometry, uncovering why music is literally “the geometry we hear” and how math might be the source code of reality itself.

    Robert shares his shocking personal journey, from Big Pharma CEO to spiritual seeker, and how repeated betrayal led him to one profound realization: You are here to learn unconditional love.

    Discover why what you judge is exactly what you attract, why he believes everyone must go through narcissism as part of their evolution, and whether ancient civilizations like Egypt, and even Leonardo da Vinci, have known secrets about higher-dimensional geometry that we’re only now rediscovering.

    Robert breaks down:

    - What if the brain isn’t a storage device, but an antenna tuning into a non-local field of consciousness?

    - Are there hidden codes embedded in da Vinci’s art?

    - What is the Akashic field, and could all memory (past, present, and future) exist in an invisible infrasonic frequency field connecting Earth, the sun, and human thought?

    - If reality is a simulation, what happens when you become lucid inside it?

    - Why science and spirituality are not opposites, but the same language

    - How all disciplines (math, biology, psychology, physics, philosophy) are just different lenses of one truth

    - Deeper meaning behind the most popular song the week you were born

    - Why prime factorization is the foundation of encryption, and possibly reality itself

    - His belief that God is still learning and evolving

    - Why he doesn’t fear “dark people”, only those who deny their darkness

    - How much of your life is actually predestined

    - Why polymaths appear on the walls of the Vatican

    - Mystery behind his favorite number, 137

    His ultimate message?

    You don’t need a guru.

    You don’t need AI.

    You don’t need religion.

    Everything you’re searching for is already within you.

    If you’re ready to rethink reality, consciousness, and your place in the universe, this is the conversation you’ve been waiting for.

  • What if everything you’ve been told about fitness, hormones, dieting, and “healthy habits” was built for the WRONG body? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Stacy Sims (exercise physiologist and leading expert in female nutrition & performance) exposes the shocking truth about why women are STILL misunderstood in science, and how it’s silently wrecking health, metabolism, and longevity.

    Dr. Sims breaks down:

    – Why women are drastically underrepresented in research (and why it’s more complicated than just sexism)

    – Hidden biological & hormonal differences that make “one-size-fits-all” health advice completely ineffective for women

    – Dark side of GLP-1 weight loss drugs, diet culture, and over-exercising, and how they’re quietly destroying quality of life

    – Strength training: Why lifting heavy is the key to fat loss, brain health, longevity, & hormonal balance

    – Alarming link between contraceptives, brain development, anxiety, & bone density in young women

    – Why fasting doesn’t work the same for women & how it can backfire hard

    – Why women NEED higher body fat & why chasing “lean” can be harmful

    – Overlooked connection between muscle, glucose control, brain function, & osteoporosis prevention

    – How poor nutrition is ruining your sleep (and the surprising food that can fix it fast)

    – Dangers hiding in peptides

    – Why most multivitamins are failing you (and how too much of ONE nutrient can actually harm you)

    – Nutrient deficiencies almost everyone is dealing with (especially if you’re busy, stressed, & overworked)

    – Why diet & exercise feel impossible for so many women & the systemic reasons behind it

    – Science behind saunas, cold plunges, & whether they’re actually worth it

    – Creatine explained like never before: brain fog, stress resilience, ADHD, sleep cycles, muscle performance - who needs it & how much

    – Why you might be drinking water WRONG (and how overhydration is making you bloated)

    – Shocking differences in lifespan vs. healthspan between men and women, especially for Alzheimer’s & dementia

    – How strength training can literally protect your brain as you age

    – 5 NON-NEGOTIABLE habits every woman needs during perimenopause & menopause

    – Fiber intake mistakes that are wrecking gut health and hormones (especially after 40)

    – Why Hormone Replacement Therapy isn’t the answer for everyone, and what to do instead

    – How AI & social media are spreading dangerous health misinformation (why women are the biggest targets!)

    This isn’t just another health episode, this is a wake-up call.

    If you’ve ever felt like your body isn’t responding the way it “should”…you’re not broken. The system is.

  • What if everything you’ve been told about mental health is backwards?

    In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown in honor of Mental Health Month, Dr. Paul Conti (psychiatrist & President of Pacific Premier Group PC) reveals why focusing on what’s wrong with you may actually be keeping you stuck, and how a completely different approach can unlock resilience, hope, and real change.

    We dive into the shocking truth that MORE THAN HALF of physical health issues may originate from mental health, and why treating symptoms alone (with medication or endless information) often misses the root cause entirely. You’ll learn why overdiagnosis is more dangerous than you think, how self-fulfilling prophecies quietly shape your reality, and why “feeling fine” might be the biggest thing holding you back.

    Dr. Conti breaks down the hidden long-term effects of trauma, including how it impacts longevity and can even be passed down genetically, and why the cycle of intergenerational trauma can stop with you. He shares his personal story, the critical difference between grief and trauma, and why letting go of guilt and shame is essential for true healing.

    We explore why mental health stigma still exists despite everyone talking about it, why it’s so emotionally difficult to examine your own mind, and why you can’t separate mental and physical health, no matter how much we try.

    We also discuss:

    - Hidden root behind multiple symptoms you didn’t know were connected

    - Why more information won’t help unless you can actually apply it

    - Surprising reason relief from distress doesn’t equal happiness

    - How your recurring thoughts may be shaping your entire life

    - Why giving back can make you feel whole in ways nothing else can

    Plus, we tackle some of the most controversial topics in modern mental health:

    - When medication should (and shouldn’t) be used

    - Dangers of turning to AI for therapy

    - Why elevating science to the level of “truth” can actually limit human growth

    Most importantly, Dr. Conti introduces a powerful, practical framework: using compassionate curiosity to re-examine your life story - so you can begin healing, even without professional therapy.

    If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or like you’re missing something important about your own mind, this conversation might change how you see yourself forever!
