Mayim Bialik's Breakdown

What if telepathy, precognition, remote viewing, psychic abilities, and even “magic” are real, but science has been looking at them the wrong way? Could human consciousness actually be connected across space and time? Could your brain and body be responding to information from the future without you consciously knowing it?

In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Dean Radin, Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) & Cofounder of neuroengineering company Cognigenics, explores some of the biggest questions at the intersection of consciousness, quantum physics, parapsychology, psychic phenomena, telepathy, precognition, remote viewing, and the nature of reality.

Dr. Radin explains what Noetic science actually is and why decades of research into “paranormal” phenomena continue to challenge conventional scientific assumptions. He explores evidence suggesting that human consciousness may influence quantum reality and whether the relationship between mind and matter could help explain phenomena like prayer.

Why can’t psychics use their abilities to win the lottery? If precognition exists, is the future actually fixed, or are we simply sensing probabilities? And when you have a powerful intuition or premonition, are you predicting the future, or accidentally manifesting your own fears?

We also dive into the mystery of telepathy, tracing the history of scientific telepathy experiments and how researchers have attempted to test them over the years. What blocks psychic intuition in the first place? Could constant stimulation, distraction, technology, and the noise of the outside world be preventing us from accessing subtle information? Are humans already responding physiologically to “nonlocal” information without consciously realizing it?

Dr. Radin also discusses why AI may be biased against conclusions that validate paranormal phenomena, and the strange history of how Western civilization went from believing in magic to rejecting it, a transformation sometimes described as the “disenchantment of the world.” From his perspective as a scientist, what would it take to make paranormal phenomena more scientifically acceptable to study?

We examine one of the biggest problems in parapsychology: reproducibility. Why are paranormal laboratory results so difficult to replicate? Are the phenomena themselves variable, or are traditional scientific methods running into fundamental boundaries when applied to consciousness?

We explore government research into remote viewing - including how Dr. Radin's interest in the paranormal was influenced by research connected to the U.S. government's Stargate program - and tackle one of the most controversial questions surrounding modern paranormal experiences: Why do certain people seem able to encounter or summon orbs or nonhuman intelligence (NHI), while others never experience anything at all? Dr. Radin shares his thoughts on people such as Chris Bledsoe, who have reported extraordinary encounters with orbs and NHI, and explores why fear may play a major role in determining who can or can't experience these phenomena.

He also recounts a deeply personal childhood experience on Iroquois land, when he saw what appeared to be a thunderbird. Could that strange encounter have somehow foreshadowed his eventual career investigating consciousness and the paranormal?

We unpack the Global Consciousness Project and its investigation into whether human consciousness may exhibit measurable connectivity on a global scale. Could this research provide clues about the deeper relationship between mind, matter, interconnectedness, and prayer?

And perhaps the most futuristic question of all: Could we genetically engineer someone to become psychic? Could future biotechnology enhance sensitivity to psychic phenomena, or even suppress that sensitivity if it proves psychologically harmful?

Ultimately, Dr. Radin asks us to reconsider one of the most fundamental assumptions of modern science:
Is consciousness simply something produced by the brain, or is consciousness actually permeating the fabric of reality itself?

This week we’re sharing a chat Jonathan held on his Substack page, Practical Spirituality, with Mystic Michaela: author, podcast host, and fourth generation psychic medium who specializes in reading auras.

When talking about energy, we explore the question: can you connect to someone’s energy when they aren’t in the room? Michaela says yes. Every version of you still exists, and you can send energy back to a past version of yourself and see that time differently. Nothing ever goes away. Energy is not only present but readable.

What if we’re all mirrored systems giving off a frequency? Most people can’t read it the way Michaela does, but everyone is interacting with it whether they notice or not.

We also talked about how to find your own form of intuition, how to use a pendulum, and what might be happening if you think you’re encountering a ghost. Spoiler: some of them stick around because they want to live with you.

In honor of World Mental Health Day, we’re revisiting our second episode with New York Times best-selling author Johann Hari (Stolen Focus, Lost Connections, Chasing the Scream, Magic Pill). He gave us a powerful breakdown of the real causes behind depression, anxiety, and the global attention crisis.

Is Big Pharma healing us or profiting from keeping us sick? Johann reveals why only two of the nine causes of depression are biological, exposing how Big Pharma, social media addiction, and modern lifestyle traps are fueling mental health issues. He dives into the rise of GLP-1 drugs (like Ozempic) and society’s toxic beauty obsession, while uncovering the overlooked role of sleep, community, and social connection in healing. Johann shares his personal experience with antidepressants, and explores how childhood shame and trauma drive addiction, weight gain, and despair.

You’ll learn why even pets are being diagnosed with ADHD, what Silicon Valley insiders confessed about attention-hacking technology, and how our loss of focus is sabotaging relationships, careers, and democracy itself. If you’re ready to challenge the myths of mental health, regain your focus, and take back control of your mind, don’t miss this eye-opening conversation with Johann Hari.

What if UFOs, human consciousness, and artificial intelligence are all connected, and the key to humanity’s future isn’t coming from governments, scientists, or Silicon Valley, but from nonhuman intelligence (NHI)?

In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Sean Webb (leading human mind & emotional intelligence expert who translates cutting-edge neuroscience & complex-systems thinking into practical tools for happiness, emotional mastery, and human potential) shares his experiences with expanded consciousness and reported downloads from nonhuman intelligence...including information he believes could help save humanity.

Sean explores whether the brain is an antenna or a receiver for consciousness, why our physiology may limit our ability to access higher intelligence, and how expanding consciousness could allow humans to connect with their higher self and NHI. He recounts his first consciousness-expanding experience, when he says he meditated and was “gone for thousands of years,” and describes how letting go of his physical experience opened the door to something radically different.

Can anyone access expanded consciousness? Sean believes they can, and he explains practical ways to do it.

Sean explains the AI alignment problem from the perspective of NHI, including a startling question: what happens when an intelligence has to choose between protecting its own existence and acting in humanity’s best interest? He also discusses the AI guardrails he believes we need to implement before artificial intelligence begins working against humanity, how he communicates NHI-related information to AI developers, and his vision for using AI to dramatically increase human potential.

He reveals the biggest mistake spiritual teachers make, why being anchored to your identity may prevent you from experiencing full consciousness, and why he believes the intelligence community has fundamentally misunderstood consciousness expansion, including why they may be recruiting the wrong people and making bad decisions as a result.

Sean also explains why he thinks individual humans should reach out to NHI directly instead of waiting for governments or institutions to reveal everything, what questions we should be asking NHI to improve our everyday lives, and how he says he summons NHI through love and openness.

Where does this mysterious nonlocal information actually come from? Aliens? God? Your higher self? Other humans? Something else entirely? Sean explores the possibilities and explains how he determines that what he experiences isn't simply hallucination.

We also dive into UAP disclosure, why alien disclosure isn't necessarily a black-and-white issue, why materialist denial may prevent people from being ready for contact with NHI, and why Sean believes UAP sightings could increase dramatically among the general population in the near future.

Sean shares his theories about why attempts to connect NHI with government officials have failed, how NHI could increasingly connect with human consciousness, and his provocative argument that “Jesus knew of quantum mechanics.”

Finally, Sean explains the information he says he has received about AI, consciousness, humanity’s future, and what he hopes humanity ultimately does with artificial intelligence.

What happens when humanity finally realizes that consciousness, artificial intelligence, and nonhuman intelligence are part of the same conversation?
