Are telepathy & mind-reading real? Can consciousness exist beyond the brain? Are we living multiple lives at once?The Telepathy Tapes: Season 2 EXCLUSIVE with Filmmaker Ky Dickens In this jaw-dropping, mind-expanding episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, award-winning filmmaker and viral podcast host Ky Dickens returns with a first look at Season 2 of The Telepathy Tapes — and what she reveals will challenge everything you think you know about the human mind, death, and the nature of reality. Ky shares real stories of people accessing impossible knowledge through telepathy and remote viewing, whether plants communicate with us (she says yes and shares her personal proof!), and scientific experiments she has personally witnessed that are finally taking telepathy seriously. Ky Dickens also breaks down: - How Alzheimer's, dementia, and even death can unlock extrasensory abilities - The mystifying moment when the brain shuts down...and something else turns on - Why children learn PSI abilities faster than adults - Scientific experiments that are finally taking telepathy seriously - What nonspeakers are saying after death, and how it’s changing science - Telepathic communication medical caregivers are witnessing in hospitals - Differences between talking to the dead vs the living, telepathically - Is Consciousness manifesting its will through us? - Why unlocking one PSI ability often activates others - Shocking idea that we're living multiple lives simultaneously - Why our beliefs about the afterlife may be based on ancient NDEs - Are these once-taboo topics going mainstream? PLUS...Ky shares her candid response to being attacked by materialists after Season 1, and how Season 2 may crush skepticism for good! Whether you're a skeptic, seeker, or scientist, this conversation will leave you questioning reality…and maybe even stepping outside of it.

Could Mushrooms Save the World? Join the world’s most renowned mycologist Paul Stamets—author of Psilocybin Mushrooms in Their Natural Habitats—as he dives deep into the astonishing power of fungi, mycelium, and psychedelic mushrooms to transform not just our health, but our consciousness, society, and planet. In this mind-expanding episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Stamets reveals: - How psilocybin therapy is helping people overcome trauma, anxiety, and even the fear of death - How a heroic dose of mushrooms changed his life, helped cure his stutter, and opened his spiritual awareness - Powerful anatomy of fungi vs. mycelium vs. mushrooms, and how they mirror the structure of the universe - Why mycelium networks prove the health benefits of random acts of kindness - Humans are descendants of mycelium (and what that means for our evolution!) - Crucial role mushrooms play in biodiversity, ecosystem survival, and as the "lungs of the planet" - Difference between microdosing vs. macrodosing, and the creative, emotional, and neurological benefits of each - Why a "Mycelium Revolution" is sweeping the planet, and how it could unite humanity - Why Stamets believes psilocybin may be the key to curing our global creativity crisis - Sacred cultural history of mushrooms, and why honoring Indigenous wisdom is vital to our future - How mushrooms could help us clean pollution, build sustainable materials, revolutionize agriculture, and even colonize space So why isn’t psilocybin therapy more accessible? Why are thousands of mushroom species psychedelic? And how can fungi rewire society for healing, empathy, and planetary survival? Discover how mushrooms might not just change your mind, but also save the world. Watch now and prepare to see fungi in a whole new light!

In honor of OCD Awareness Week, we are revisiting our conversation with Howie Mandel! Howie Mandel (America’s Got Talent, Deal or No Deal, Howie Mandel Does Stuff podcast) opens up about his struggles with ADHD, anxiety, depression, and OCD. He discusses the rituals and intrusive thoughts that force him to hit the pause button on his life, why he finally decided to seek professional treatment, and how his diagnoses have affected his lifepath. Howie explains how Candid Camera first inspired him to do comedy and recounts his first time onstage performing stand-up. He and Mayim consider the importance of living in the moment, hypervigilance as a survival mechanism, and tips on achieving success within therapy. Mayim breaks down ways to manage mental illness with meditation in another installment of Ask Mayim Anything.

BLACK HOLES, THE BIG BANG & ALIEN LIFE: Astrophysicist Janna Levin Breaks Down the Universe Ever wondered what existed before the Big Bang? Or why all planets are different, and why Earth is so perfectly suited for life? In this mind-expanding episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, renowned astrophysicist and author of Black Hole Survival Guide, Janna Levin (Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Barnard College of Columbia University), takes us on a cosmic journey through the deepest mysteries of the universe, and how they reflect back on what it means to be human. From the terrifying truth about black holes to the surprising science behind moons, planets, and even nuclear weapons, we're answering space questions you didn’t even know you had. Janna Levin breaks down: - Everything You’ve Ever Wondered About the Big Bang: What came before it, myths, how it created space and time - What is Time and how do black holes bend it? - Why planets are round - What moons really are (and the wild origin of our Moon) - How stars give birth to planets - What black holes are, what happens inside, and their role in the fundamentals of physics - Why some stars become black holes and others don’t - How Einstein and Oppenheimer cracked the code on black holes and how we observe them today - What would happen if our Sun became a black hole and could we actually fall into one? - Spooky effects of black holes on time & space (Could they teach us to age slower?) - Why there’s likely a black hole at the center of every galaxy - Why Janna Levin believes we’ll discover alien life within 50 years & what it could look like (it will likely be on moons, not planets!) - Will our tragic reliance on tech destroy us, or save us? - Can we make tech more compatible with nature? - Why advancing tech increases the generational gap - Why Janna doesn’t believe AI will ever become truly conscious - Why the universe is considered left-handed - What would happen if the Sun were knocked out of our system - Nuclear weapons & how they were invented through studying the Sun - Parallels between nature and cosmic phenomena across the universe This episode of MBB is really all about the growing hunger in society to understand the cosmos, and therefore, ourselves. Don’t miss this mind-blowing journey into the heart of space, time, existence, and our place in it all!
