Re-Air: Army Psychic Uses Remote Viewing to Hunt Crime! | Angela Ford
10 juli 2026 · 2 uur
This summer we’re returning to an episode from June 2025 that’s very close to our hearts! Renowned U.S. Army remote viewer and psychic spy, Angela Ford, shared her incredible journey from childhood out-of-body experiences and prophetic dreams to becoming a top operative in Project Stargate, the government’s classified psychic espionage program run by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). Lees meer
In this mind-opening conversation of Mayim Bialik’s Breakdown, Angela Ford shares how she used automatic writing, extrasensory perception (ESP), and spirit guide communication to track high-value targets. She states that psychic intelligence can be just as powerful as AI in national defense. She recounts encounters with dark entities, explains how she performs psychic readings on babies and animals, and even reveals a childhood UFO sighting that changed her life.
Angela also offers a live aura reading for Mayim and Jonathan, and breaks down how meditation and training your subconscious mind can unlock your own hidden psychic gifts.

Part Two: Hidden From the President: A Naval Officer on UAPs in Our Oceans & How the CIA Trained Psychic Spies | Admiral Tim Gallaudet
8 juli 2026 · 48 min
What if the truth about UAPs is far stranger and far more unsettling than we've been told? Lees meer
In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet, PhD, US Navy (Ret.) - former oceanographer, retired Rear Admiral, and author of Holding Fast in Heavy Seas - reveals why he believes some of the biggest secrets surrounding UAPs (UFOs) may be hidden beneath Earth's oceans.
After serving 32 years in the U.S. Navy, Gallaudet personally witnessed now-declassified UAP evidence and became one of the first people to view the now-famous "Go Fast" Navy video while it was still classified. He explains why he immediately knew the technology wasn't American or from any known adversary, and why the government kept the footage hidden for years.
We dive deep into reports of mysterious craft operating both above and below the ocean, the seemingly impossible physics required for these objects to transition seamlessly between air and water, and why he believes our oceans may hold critical clues to understanding the true origins of nonhuman intelligence.
We also discuss why eyewitness testimony remains one of the most important forms of evidence, how he personally gathers reports from fellow servicemen and submits them to official government agencies, and why official confirmation always seems to be delayed with calls for "more data."
Adm. Gallaudet also helps us tackle some of the most controversial questions surrounding disclosure:
- Could quantum mechanics help explain UAPs?
- Do UAPs actually change form depending on the observer?
- Why do encounters with nonhuman intelligence profoundly transform the people who witness them?
- Is the unsettling possibility that humanity is not in control the real reason disclosure has moved so slowly?
We explore the intersection of UAPs with the paranormal, including government-funded remote viewing and ESP research, what those programs may imply about consciousness and psi phenomena, why childhood paranormal experiences ma…

Substack Live Re-Air: Are Convenience and Comfort Causing More Harm than Good?
4 juli 2026 · 40 min
This week we are re-releasing a Substack Live from our Breaker community! Mayim and Jonathan speak with Jeff Krasno, co-founder and CEO of Commune, a masterclass platform for personal and societal well-being. He hosts the Commune podcast and is the author of Good Stress, a collection of wellness protocols that he developed to reverse his diabetes, lose 60 pounds, and reclaim his health. Lees meer
We cover a topic that we’ve heard before, but framed in a new way - how each of us are living in a constant state of emotional dysregulation, and Jeff shares a few unique and novel ways to rebalance - like crying (really hard!) to release stress and restabilize our nervous systems and sense of purpose. He also introduces the “spotlight versus lantern” perspective of conscious experience - how wide can we make our aperture so that we can take in all that life has to offer?!
Our lives are filled with ease and over-convenience from morning to night, and it’s adversely affecting our health. We need to put down the electronic devices and build up our psychological immune systems!

We’re Not Alone. String Theory Explains Aliens, Time, AI & The Hidden 95% of the Universe | Dr. Lara B. Anderson
3 juli 2026 · 1 uur 4 min
The Universe Is WAY Stranger Than You Think… And Physics Might Prove It Lees meer
What if EVERYTHING you thought you knew about reality is incomplete, or just flat-out wrong?
In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Lara B. Anderson (theoretical physicist & string theory expert) reveals the shocking truths about our universe that most people, even die-hard science fans, completely misunderstand. From hidden dimensions to time behaving differently across the cosmos, this conversation will change how you see existence itself.
Dr. Anderson breaks down:
- Why string theory could be the missing key to EVERYTHING, uniting quantum mechanics & relativity, redefining reality itself
- Real explanation behind dark matter & dark energy, and what might actually be powering the expansion of the universe
- Unsettling truth about the fate of the universe: are we heading toward another Big Bang, or total catastrophe?
- How physics proves time isn't universal and why it behaves differently depending on where you are in the universe (and what that means for time travel)
- Difference between multiverse vs. extra dimensions, and the actual physics suggesting both could exist
- What other dimensions might look like & why we can’t directly see them…yet
- The true shape of the universe
- Why studying the Big Bang might tell us exactly where everything is headed next
- How math lets us explore realities we physically can’t access due to technological & budget limits
- What exists beyond our solar system & how much we still don’t understand
- Why life almost certainly exists elsewhere and what discovering alien civilizations could mean for humanity
- Could AI finally solve the impossible math behind string theory?
- Possibility of undiscovered particles that could completely rewrite physics
- Surprising truth about The Big Bang Theory TV show from a physicist's perspective - what it got right & what physicists complained about
This isn’t just physics. It's a full-on reality …

Part Two: They’re Building A Psychopathic Society. Ancient Faiths All Point To The Cure | Chase Hughes
1 juli 2026 · 47 min
The World’s #1 leading authority on behavior profiling, nonverbal human communication, influence, and persuasion, Chase Hughes, reveals the psychological systems secretly shaping modern society, and why he believes humanity is living through the biggest PSY OP in history. Lees meer
From government manipulation and engineered division to consciousness, DMT, spirituality, and the loneliness epidemic, this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown goes far beyond politics and exposes the hidden forces influencing how we think, behave, comply, and perceive reality itself.
Chase explains why anger is the media’s most powerful weapon, how fear and tribalism are used to manipulate entire populations, and why most people don’t realize they’re being psychologically programmed in real time. He breaks down his FATE Model (Focus, Authority, Tribe, Emotion) and reveals how governments, institutions, and social media exploit ancient mammalian survival instincts to control human behavior.
He also shares why he believes the global response to Covid was the largest psy op ever conducted, why ostracization is humanity’s deepest fear, and how the threat of social rejection can override logic, morality, and independent thinking.
The conversation then takes a profound turn into spirituality, altered states of consciousness, and the nature of reality itself.
After 9 military deployments and witnessing the psychological effects of violence and desensitization, Chase began searching for deeper answers about consciousness, meaning, and human connection. He describes his first guided DMT experience as “death by astonishment” and “smoking an alien microchip,” revealing the mysterious “code” he saw during the experience and why it completely transformed his understanding of reality, and saved his life.
Chase explores whether consciousness is something we create or something we access, why “everything is consciousness” could explain quantum entanglement, and why some people appear to be “banned” from th…

Re-Air: Charlamagne Tha God: Harness Your Superpowers
26 juni 2026 · 1 uur 9 min
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. Lees meer

Part Two: Insiders Swear Alien Bodies Are in the Lab. Astrophysicist Investigates UFOs, & DMT | Neil deGrasse Tyson
24 juni 2026 · 43 min
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. Lees meer
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

Every Ancient Civilization Agreed: Your Soul Chose This Life Before You Were Born
19 juni 2026 · 36 min
What if your struggles, heartbreaks, illnesses, relationships, and biggest challenges were never random, but lessons your soul chose before you were born? Lees meer
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'…

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
17 juni 2026 · 53 min
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. Lees meer
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…

Re-Air: Raven-Symoné & Miranda Pearman-Maday. Feel Better In Your Skin
12 juni 2026 · 1 uur 13 min
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)! Lees meer
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.

10 juni 2026 · 43 min
What if EVERYTHING we know about reality is missing a deeper operating system? Lees meer
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

From Arranged Marriage to Netflix: What They Punished Her For, She Turned Into Power | Zarna Garg
5 juni 2026 · 1 uur 24 min
She escaped an arranged marriage the DAY AFTER her mother died…and what happened next will leave you speechless. Lees meer
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 e…

Part Two: 50 Million in Funding, 10,000 New Clinics, and the Mistake That Could Kill the Psychedelic Revolution | Dr. Rick Doblin
3 juni 2026 · 1 uur 18 min
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. Lees meer
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.

50 Million in Funding, 10,000 New Clinics, and the Mistake That Could Kill the Psychedelic Revolution | Dr. Rick Doblin
2 juni 2026 · 48 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Part Two: You Chose This Life Before You Were Born — Robert Edward Grant on Sacred Geometry, Da Vinci’s Hidden Code, Ancient Mathematics & The Simulation of Reality
27 mei 2026 · 46 min
What if EVERYTHING you’ve been taught about science, consciousness, and even your own thoughts…is incomplete? Lees meer
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 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

One Hidden Cause for Six Different Symptoms. The Psychiatrist Explaining Why 50% of Physical Complaints Begin in the Mind | Dr. Paul Conti
15 mei 2026 · 1 uur 37 min
What if everything you’ve been told about mental health is backwards? Lees meer
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

Part Two: Vincent Tolman Died in a Dairy Queen Bathroom at 25 — He Was Gone for Over an Hour and Came Back With 10 Messages About the Afterlife
13 mei 2026 · 1 uur 10 min
He was dead for 90 minutes. What he saw will shatter everything you think you know! Lees meer
Doctors say this should have been impossible.
Vincent “Vinney” Tolman wasn’t just clinically dead - he was gone for somewhere between 45 minutes and an hour and a half, with no brain activity and no chance of returning without severe damage. Yet somehow, he came back - fully conscious, forever changed, and carrying a story that has left even medical professionals stunned.
What happened during that time? According to Vinney, everything we think we know about life, death, and reality is only the beginning.
After an accidental overdose in a restaurant bathroom, Vinney crossed over - and what he experienced on “the other side” goes far beyond a typical near death experience. He describes leaving his body and entering a state where he could hear the thoughts and feel the emotions of others, moving through a realm where time doesn’t exist the way we understand it, and encountering a level of unconditional love so overwhelming it defies human language.
In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, he shares the moment he met his spirit guide, learned how to raise his energetic frequency to travel, and underwent a profound life review, reliving not just his own actions, but feeling every ounce of pain and joy he had ever caused others.
After being resuscitated and placed in a coma for 3 days, Vinney returned with 10 specific messages he says were given to him from “the other side”, including insights into:
- Why we’re really here on Earth
- Hidden purpose behind suffering, conflict, & evil
- Why free will is essential to existence
- Truth about authenticity, love, & judgment
- How tech & other negative influences shape our spiritual path
- Why our value has nothing to do with what others think
He also reveals why he believes Earth has existed far longer than we’ve been told, how it moves through energetic cycles, and why children seem more spiritually connected.
But coming back…

She Spent 20 Years Inside Cartels, Scam Factories & Black Markets. Investigative Journalist Mariana van Zeller On The $12 Billion Industry Stealing From Americans & Why Everybody Is Scammable
1 mei 2026 · 1 uur 10 min
What really happens inside the world’s most dangerous underground economies? And why do the people running them trust a journalist enough to talk? Lees meer
Mariana van Zeller — Emmy- and Peabody Award–winning investigative journalist, host and executive producer of Trafficked on National Geographic, and host of The Hidden Third podcast — has spent years embedded with scammers, smugglers, cartel members, assassins, and black-market power brokers. In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, she pulls back the curtain on the shadow systems that quietly shape the global economy.
Mariana breaks down the difference between the black market vs. the grey market, why understanding these hidden economies is the only way to create real change, and how she manages to gain access to some of the most secretive and dangerous players in the world. She explains how empathy, not judgment, is often the key to getting people labeled “the worst of the worst” to open up, and why many of them speak with her because of something surprisingly simple: a deep human need to be heard and understood.
She also addresses critics who say she shouldn’t give criminals a platform, revealing why listening to these voices is essential to exposing the systems behind global crime.
We dive into her most harrowing experiences in the field — including the terrifying moment she and her team weren’t sure they would make it out alive, and the time they had to escape a country in the middle of a life-threatening military coup while filming.
Mariana also unpacks the current climate in Mexico’s drug war, explaining why violence often escalates when major cartel kingpins are taken down, and the troubling implications of the fact that many of the weapons used by cartels originate in the United States.
We get into one of the fastest-growing criminal industries in the world: scams.
She breaks down everything you’ve ever wanted to know about romance scams and “pig butchering” operations, including:

Substack Live Re-Air: The Emotional Journey to a Pain Free Life | Nicole Sachs
25 april 2026 · 52 min
This week we are re-releasing a Substack Live from our Breaker community! Mayim and Jonathan are joined by Nicole Sachs, LCSW, a renowned psychotherapist, author, and speaker who has become an internationally recognized pioneer in the field of mind-body medicine. As the architect of the “JournalSpeak” method and host of The Cure for Chronic Pain podcast, Sachs has dedicated her career to treating patients suffering from chronic pain, autoimmune conditions, and fatigue by addressing the underlying emotional components of physical symptoms. Lees meer
Nicole explains that our brains often use physical pain as a “protective” distraction to keep us from feeling overwhelming emotions like rage, shame, or grief. Think of it like an emotional reservoir—when it gets too full, the pressure has to go somewhere, and often, it manifests as a backache, a migraine, or digestive issues.
Nicole’s story is as relatable as it is miraculous. After a year of being so locked up in pain that she couldn’t even put her toddlers in their car seats, she had a spiritual and psychological breakthrough. By getting brutally honest with herself through a specific type of journaling, her chronic back pain was 80% gone by the next morning.
Nicole breaks down her healing method into three simple parts that anyone can start today:
- Knowledge: Understanding that your brain and body are constantly communicating.
- The Work (Journal Speak): A specific, 20-minute daily practice of “unbridled rants” to get the hidden stress out of your system.

Part Two: What Happens To Evil People When They Die and What The Dead Want You To Know | Suzanne Giesemann
22 april 2026 · 47 min
What if everything you’ve been told about Spirit is only half the truth? Lees meer
In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Suzanne Giesemann—evidential medium, spiritual teacher, and author of Always Connected: How to Find Comfort, Clarity, and Direction from the Spirit Within—returns to reveal what really happens when you try to connect with Spirit, and why so many people are getting it wrong.
After facing her own recent health challenges, Suzanne shares how Spirit taught her to flow with life’s ups and downs, and why your connection can feel completely blocked when you’re overwhelmed, stressed, or dealing with physical and emotional struggles.
But here’s the twist: you don’t have to be fully healed to connect.
If you’ve ever wondered…
- Can psychics win the lottery?
- Can they really find missing people?
Suzanne answers both—and shares a remarkable real-life story of working on a missing person’s case, including the astonishing details she received from Spirit.
Suzanne also breaks down:
- Why your focus narrows during hard times, and how that disconnects you from Spirit
- Simple, practical ways to strengthen your intuition in just 1–3 minutes a day
- How she clearly distinguishes between messages from spirit guides, angels, deceased loved ones, & her own intuition
- What spirit guides actually are, and how they “match your frequency” to influence your life
- Top 5 misconceptions about connecting with Spirit (including what it can’t do for you)
She also dives into the deeper truths most people aren’t ready to hear…
- Why spirit guides won’t protect you from every challenge
- Why humanity is still in its “adolescent” stage of evolution
- How nervous system disregulation can completely block your spiritual connection
- Why questioning your challenges might be the key to your growth
- How psychics connect to deceased loved ones through energetic resonance
- Why readings often come through as feelings, symbols, and imagery
- What truly happens to “evil…

Substack Live Re-Air: Finding Beauty in the Mundane
18 april 2026 · 26 min
We’re sharing something special that was previously only for the breaker community on our Substack page: a chat Jonathan and I did with our special Substack community about what happens when we stop defining ourselves by what we do and start looking at who we actually are. We explore the profound connection between our unique souls, our internal states, and our physical health. Lees meer
Building on our recent conversation with Simon Sinek (world-renowned author of Start with Why and The Infinite Game), we discuss how to find your purpose by reconnecting to your “soul traits”—those inherent qualities you’ve carried since childhood.
Mayim breaks down the neurophysiology of optimism, explaining how the state of our nervous system acts as the ultimate gatekeeper for our capacity to heal. In a world that often feels increasingly cynical and designed to polarize, maintaining a state of openness is a biological necessity.
Jonathan explores how to find our unique purpose, highlighting how we often box ourselves into perceived limits that leave us feeling constrained and disconnected from our potential. To get more on rewriting these narratives, check out the recent Live with Mayim on Jonathan’s Practical Spirituality page.
Drawing on the wisdom of Michael Singer (The Untethered Soul), we also discuss the importance of “not fighting the universe”—dropping the internal resistance to what is happening so we can trigger biological responses that facilitate healing, even on a global scale.
“Optimism is believing that even in a dark tunnel, there’s light at the end.”
It is about holding space for the belief that peace and reconciliation are possible, regardless of current suffering.
This Live also covers:
- The “Junk Room” Metaphor: How to identify the mental clutter and limiting stories that keep you feeling disconnected from your true potential.
- Biology vs. Belief: How to clear the “energetic residue” of stress to allow your body to move from survival mode into recovery.

Part Two: Lee Harris on Fear As Control, Light Warriors, And Why Humanity’s Rise Is Already Happening
16 april 2026 · 58 min
THIS EPISODE WILL CHANGE HOW YOU SEE REALITY Lees meer
What if EVERYTHING you’ve been told about consciousness, reality, and even world events…is only a fraction of the truth?
Lee Harris — globally recognized spiritual teacher, intuitive, and best-selling author — is BACK in the studio, and this time he graciously introduces his mysterious guides “The Z’s”, a collective consciousness that may even originate from his own higher future self.
The Z’s claim humanity has been in a “quarantine” of limited consciousness, and we are NOW emerging from it.
Why? Because:
Humanity is more ready than ever to hear this message.
Consciousness is rapidly expanding.
And something BIG is unfolding on Earth right now…
In a LIVE channeling session, The Z’s reveal:
- Why THIS moment in history is urgent
- How multiple timelines may be converging on Earth
- Why war is NOT natural (& what’s actually driving global conflict)
- Shocking claim that WWIII has nearly happened multiple times already & why fear might be making it MORE likely
- Hidden forces influencing global systems
- Why labeling things “conspiracy theories” can keep people asleep
- Deeper meaning behind the Epstein saga surfacing now
- How COVID may have been a turning point in who we trust
- Why mainstream media thrives on fear, not love
- We may already be interacting with extraterrestrial intelligence
- Some of our current technology may NOT be fully human-made
- Earth itself could be part of a much larger galactic experiment
But this isn’t just about big ideas — it’s about YOU.
With Lee himself, we explore:
- How he first began channeling
- Do we all have guides tapping into a shared field of consciousness?
- Difference between spirit guides vs angels
- What it physically feels like to channel (& how Lee comes back to reality after)
- What it’s like living between the human world and the spirit realm
- How to tell the difference between intuition vs fear
- Why spirituality might NOT work for everyone

Re-Air: Danny Trejo: I Was As Sick As My Secrets
10 april 2026 · 1 uur 19 min
In honor of Alcohol Awareness Month, we’re revisiting a very special episode from 2023 with the one-and-only Danny Trejo. Lees meer
Danny Trejo (actor, restaurauteur, & author) joins us in-studio to discuss how the culture he was raised in contributed to his early drug and alcohol use, the evolution of his relationship with a higher power from one of fear to one of love, and his transition from convict to actor/author/restaurateur. He opens up about being conditioned as a child to use rage and violence to survive, what early sobriety taught him, and why he feels like he can reach troubled youth better than other adults. Danny explains what it was like to be incarcerated for the first time, his role as an “Inmate Social Catalyst” in prison, and why his parole board actually suggested he murder someone. Mayim and Danny consider the weaknesses of our prison system and the inhumanity of solitary confinement after Danny shares his heartbreaking experience being locked up “in the hole.” Danny reveals how his drug counseling skills led him to land acting roles, his experiences training movie stars in the art of prison boxing, his love of good food and the fascinating story of how he got into the restaurant business. He also considers the negative effects of toxic masculinity, his complex relationships with women, why his children are his vulnerable spot, his favorites of his iconic acting roles, and his status as a Los Angeles icon.

Part Two: Searching for Alien Life, the UFO Disclosure Era, the Great Filter & How Much Time Earth Has Left | Dr. David Kipping
8 april 2026 · 53 min
Are We ALONE…or Already Being WATCHED? The Truth Might Be Stranger Than Sci-Fi Lees meer
What if aliens could already find Earth, but we still can’t find them? What if the reason we haven’t detected nonhuman intelligence is actually more disturbing than proof that they exist? Is the universe teaming with life, or are we screaming into a void? In this episode of Mayim Bialik’s Breakdown, Dr. David Kipping (Columbia University professor and Director of the Cool Worlds Lab) discusses why the ‘proof’ of alien life might be hidden in plain sight—and why our human brains struggle to accept it. From the Fermi Paradox to the terrifying reality of the Great Filter, we’re breaking down the science of the stars and the psychology of solitude.
From controversial Mars discoveries to theories about communicating with aliens through time, not space, this episode will challenge everything you think you know about our place in the universe.
ARE WE ON THE VERGE OF PROVING ALIEN LIFE?
- Latest on possible biosignatures & microbial evidence on Mars
- Why we still don’t have definitive proof of life beyond Earth
- Emotional “heartbreak” scientists experience when alien signals turn out to be false alarms
WHY EARTH MIGHT NOT MATTER AS MUCH AS WE THINK
- Could humans be the most primitive intelligence in the universe?
- Why we’re likely either far ahead, or dangerously behind alien civilizations
- How proving the multiverse could completely erase our sense of uniqueness
THE UNSETTLING TRUTH ABOUT ALIENS FINDING US
- Why it would actually be easy for aliens to locate Earth
- Eerie idea that not finding aliens might make you believe in God
- Why aliens might be interested in something as specific as…our DNA
WE’VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT ALIENS ALL WRONG
- Why it’s “intellectually lazy” to assume aliens explain unknown phenomena
- Nonhuman intelligence might be so different, they may not even recognize us as conscious

Part Two: The Holistic Psychologist: Why Childhood Wounds Block Intuition, How Trauma Pulls You Into The Past & The Science of Reparenting Your Nervous System | Dr. Nicole LePera
4 april 2026 · 47 min
What if the reason you feel stuck isn’t about your job, your partner, or your motivation, but a wound you’ve been carrying since childhood? Lees meer
In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Nicole LePera — better known as “The Holistic Psychologist” and author of Reparenting the Inner Child — reveals why your adult patterns are NOT random…and why insight alone will never set you free.
Dr. Nicole LePera breaks down the 9 different childhood wounds silently shaping your adult relationships, like:
- If you couldn’t trust a caregiver → why you’re guarded, suspicious, and prone to self-sabotage
- If you had too much responsibility → why you’re a compulsive caretaker battling burnout and weak boundaries
- If you were rejected → why perfectionism and people-pleasing became your survival strategy
She also reveals:
- Why “inner child work” feels like being pulled into an alternate timeline (how your nervous system literally drags you back into the past!)
- Hidden damage of being a parentified child, and the burnout, resentment, and boundary struggles that follow you into adulthood
- Shocking prevalence of sibling abuse, and how it fractures the inner child in ways most people never acknowledge
- Real dangers of corporal punishment (& what it wires into a child’s nervous system)
- Why denying a child’s emotional reality creates lifelong shame
- Shame 101: What it actually is, how it’s different from guilt, how it lives in the body
- How unresolved emotions block your intuition and keep you from your life path
Dr. LePera explains how childhood wounds don’t just live in your memories — they live in your body. Chronic tension. Digestive issues. Hyper-independence. Emotional numbness. “Survival mode” that you thought was normal. (It’s not.)
We also unpack:
- Can you truly heal if you can’t reconcile with your parents?
- How emotionally immature caregivers were shaped by their wounds
- Why it’s especially hard to admit you need inner child healing when you’re a p…

Part Two: He Actually Died: What He Saw on the Other Side of the White Light, from the Life Review to Meeting Jesus to the Truth About Why Earth Is the Hardest Place to Incarnate
1 april 2026 · 44 min
What happens after we die? What if the afterlife is nothing like we’ve been told? Lees meer
At just 21 years old, John J. Davis was clinically dead for 7 full minutes…and what he experienced during that time completely shattered everything he thought he knew about life, death, and the universe.
Unlike most near death experiences that begin with the famous tunnel of white light, John says his journey started beyond the light, in a realm that felt more real than Earth itself. Even though only minutes passed here, it felt like hours exploring the other side.
In this powerful episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, John describes in vivid detail what he experienced during his time beyond death, including:
- Meeting his spirit guide for the first time
- Entering an orientation center where souls are greeted by loved ones who have passed (including our beloved pets!)
- Why people appear to be in their 30s on the other side
- How the afterlife still includes joyful activities like beaches, music festivals, and creative pursuits
- Why souls choose meaningful work roles for fulfillment instead of paychecks
- How time operates completely differently beyond Earth
- His life review & the shocking moment he witnessed 3 of his past lives
- Why Earth may be the most difficult place a soul can choose to incarnate
- Truth about soulmates
- A mysterious “planetarium” that revealed countless forms of life across the universe
- A massive library of history where souls can literally watch past events unfold in study rooms
- Revelation that religion was created by man, not God, and that hell does not exist
- His breathtaking encounter in a meadow with the being he believes was Jesus...and the message he was told to bring back to humanity
But returning to Earth wasn’t easy.
After coming back to life and telling loved ones where he had been during those 7 minutes of death, John struggled deeply. He fell into depression, questioned everything, and even considered taking his own life a…

Substack Live Re-Air: Every Thought Carries a Story. Childhood Programming, Core Fears, Subconscious Narratives, and How to Rewrite the Hidden Beliefs Running Your Life
28 maart 2026 · 36 min
Today we’re sharing something special that was previously only available over on Jonathan’s Substack page, Practical Spirituality. Lees meer
Are you seeing the world as it actually is, or are you just seeing the stories you’ve built to survive it?
Mayim joins Jonathan for a surprise guest appearance to explore what I believe is one of the most important topics to understand if you want to truly know yourself: the invisible architecture that shapes each of our realities.
We often move through the world under the impression that we are seeing things as they actually are and if other people understood what we saw, everything would make sense. But the truth is that we are all living inside a reality that is being filtered, interpreted, and created by us in real-time!
We tend to treat our thoughts as objective truths, but every thought you have isn’t a standalone fact; it is a single thread connected to a much larger, often unconscious story.
These stories aren’t just mental; they are deeply somatic. They live in our bodies as energetic imprints and reinforced neural pathways that dictate how we breathe, how we hold tension, and how we vibrate in a room. Mayim and Jonathan discuss how these physiological “grooves” make our stories feel so undeniably real that we don’t even think to question them.
These stories guide our lives, shape our behavior, and influence what we believe is possible. When you think you are reacting to the world around you, you are often just reacting to a story you’ve already told yourself—and one your nervous system is already playing out.
In this live, we dive into:
- The Filtered Reality: How to recognize when you aren’t seeing “the truth,” but rather a version of the world that has been heavily edited by your subconscious programs.
- The Core Narratives: Why most of our varied anxieties—whether they are about work, family, or the future—actually stem from just two or three “root stories” that have been guiding our entire lives.
- The Solution S…
