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…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T16:20:27.664994+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/mayim-bialik-s-breakdown-1365756"},"episode":{"title":"50 Million in Funding, 10,000 New Clinics, and the Mistake That Could Kill the Psychedelic Revolution | Dr. Rick Doblin","slug":"50-million-in-funding-10-000-new-clinics-and-the-mistake-that-could-kill-the-psychedelic-revolution-dr-rick-doblin","published_at":"2026-06-02T07:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/mayim-bialik-s-breakdown-1365756/50-million-in-funding-10-000-new-clinics-and-the-mistake-that-could-kill-the-psychedelic-revolution-dr-rick-doblin","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/mayim-bialik-s-breakdown-1365756","url":"https://claritaspod.com/measure/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/PMMIC/prfx.byspotify.com/e/mgln.ai/e/1047/rss.art19.com/episodes/20a85d13-8b34-4dc4-b1d9-74e346d2470d.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://claritaspod.com/measure/pscrb.fm/rss/p/arttrk.com/p/PMMIC/prfx.byspotify.com/e/mgln.ai/e/1047/rss.art19.com/episodes/20a85d13-8b34-4dc4-b1d9-74e346d2470d.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"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. 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. Dr. Doblin discusses: - How psychedelics help people integrate trauma - Why psychedelics are generally considered non-addictive - Difference between recreational vs therapeutic psychedelic use - Why psychedelic treatment should be customized to each patient - Importance of integration, peer support, and paying attention to dreams after treatment - Measures of success in MDMA-assisted couples therapy - Origins of the opioid epidemic - \"Psychedelic chu…","meta_description":"Dr. Rick Doblin (founder and president of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, and one of the most influential figures in psychedeli…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2858,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/mayim-bialik-s-breakdown-1365756/episodes/50-million-in-funding-10-000-new-clinics-and-the-mistake-that-could-kill-the-psychedelic-revolution-dr-rick-doblin/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/mayim-bialik-s-breakdown-1365756/50-million-in-funding-10-000-new-clinics-and-the-mistake-that-could-kill-the-psychedelic-revolution-dr-rick-doblin.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
