Mental Health · Mayim Bialik
by Mayim Bialik
Consciousness. Spontaneous healing. UAPs. Near Death Experiences. Manifestation. Psychic phenomena. Angels. Nothing is off limits if it can be approached with curiosity and rigor. MBB started as a conversation about mental health — and quickly became something much bigger. Because the deeper you go into what it means to be human, the faster you run into questions science hasn’t fully answered yet. Hosted by neuroscientist and cultural icon Mayim Bialik and spiritual explorer Jonathan Cohen, MBB is a multi-award-winning podcast where science and spirituality meet. Together they break down the assumptions, the misperceptions, and the boundaries between disciplines — and every breakdown is a breakthrough. This is where the biggest questions get taken seriously — and where you realize you’ve never been alone in asking them. Can the mind actually heal the body? Can quantum physics explain psychic phenomena? What do Near Death Experiences reveal about the nature of consciousness and the seat of the human soul? What if the only thing separating you from your own intuition - or even God - is the assumption that it’s out of reach? And if governments are publicly acknowledging the existence of UFOs, what does that mean for the future of humanity? These are the questions Mayim Bialik's Breakdown asks every week.

This podcast, along with The Telepathy Tapes, is hands down some of the most moving, awe-inspiring, and mind-opening work I have ever experienced. As the parent of an autistic child, I’ve spent so much of my life searching for ways to better understand my child, connect more deeply, and reach beyond the ways we typically communicate. I never imagined that something as simple as closing my eyes and truly listening could open my mind—and my heart—in such a profound way. This podcast has made me question what we think we know about communication, connection, and the incredible depth of the human mind. It has given me hope, wonder, and a completely different perspective. Sometimes, the connection we’ve been searching for is there all along. We just have to be willing to listen. ❤️
Listening to David Williamson was a gift. I was struggling with feeling overwhelmed and frustrated with this life (I have since I was young), and so much he said was so relatable, and the fact that he became less angry helped me have hope that anger doesn't have to be the only way to move through this world.
Science and Spirituality is the healing modality of our present time — I love science although I am primarily a creative as a musician, writer; performer! They all feed each other. And quite obviously Mayim presents as both a scientist & a creative! This podcast is thorough, thoughtful, informative, entertaining and very engaging at multiple levels. I am intrigued by the many guests as well as Mayim’s insightful comments and questions. Thank you both for your intelligent presentation in a very crucial discussion at this moment in human evolution.
I can’t tell you how much this podcast has helped me navigate through a new found anxiety/panic disorder. Hearing you explain why things happen, helped me understand what was happening and why. After listening to a few, I’ve gone back to the very beginning. I remember Mayim from her Blossom days ♥️
Mayim Bialik presents a very one-sided view of Zionism that ignores the real human cost behind it. When you have a public platform, selective empathy isn’t harmless—it shapes how people understand ongoing suffering. I wish she used her voice with more honesty and accountability instead of simplifying something so complex.
