Simulation Theory Expert Reveals Aliens Could Be Behind the Simulation!

Could Simulation Theory be the key to uniting science and spirituality once and for all?Dr. Rizwan Virk (MIT professor, video game pioneer, and bestselling author of The Simulation Hypothesis) joins Mayim Bialik’s Breakdown to explore whether we’re living inside a computer simulation and why this idea may be the most important breakthrough of our time. From bridging ancient spiritual wisdom with modern quantum physics, to explaining life’s glitches, suffering, and precognitive dreams, Dr. Virk unpacks why simulation theory could radically change the way we see reality.In this mind-bending podcast episode, Mayim & Jonathan dive into:

  • Why Rizwan Virk believes simulation theory is more spiritual than you think
  • The surprising connections between quantum physics, religion, and near-death experiences
  • The Virtual Reality moment that convinced Virk the simulation might be real
  • “Glitches in the Matrix” and the Mandela Effect explained
  • Are precognitive dreams & near-death experiences proof of the simulation?
  • Could aliens or future humans be running the simulation?
  • What’s beyond the simulation? Are we about to be unplugged?

Whether you're spiritual, scientific, religious, or just simulation-curious, this is the rabbit hole you've been waiting for. Get ready to question everything on this week's MBB!
