Podcasts about big bang theory

What if the line between neuroscience and the paranormal is far thinner than we've been taught to believe? In this episode of the Align Podcast, Mayim Bialik, PhD neuroscientist, actor, author, and host of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, explores where science, mysticism, trauma, and consciousness intersect. She and Aaron discuss remote viewing, altered perception, nervous system regulation, spirituality, and nature, while examining how modern life shapes our biology and how practices that restore coherence may help us reconnect with ourselves, each other, and something greater.

In the latest episode of the State of the Arts podcast (@sotapod), filmmaker and writer Des Doyle sits down with acclaimed television writer, producer, and co-creator of The Big Bang Theory, Bill Prady, for a detailed chat about his new show Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, getting a second shot at a pilot, and a shared passion for comic artwork. Produced in partnership with Film Ireland and supported by Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland through the Screen Stakeholders Funding Scheme, the State of the Arts series explores the creative processes, industry challenges, and new opportunities that both Irish and international creatives face in today's ever-evolving artistic landscapes.During this conversation, Bill reflects on leaving his day job as a computer programmer, fondly recalls his work with Muppets creator Jim Henson and shares skills he developed along the way – ultimately leading to the co-creation of The Big Bang Theory.

Following his work with Henson, Prady wrote for a number of television comedy and drama series. His first produced episode of series television was an episode of Married... with Children in 1991; his first staff writing job was on the HBO series Dream On in 1995.In 1997, he joined the writing staff of Dharma & Greg, rising to executive producer and taking over as "showrunner" in 2001. In 2007, Prady co-created the hit CBS series The Big Bang Theory with television veteran Chuck Lorre. He served as an executive producer of that series until its finale in May 2019. He is now co-creator and executive producer of The Big Bang Theory spinoff Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, currently streaming on HBO Max. In addition to his Emmy nominations, Prady has received two Writers' Guild awards, a CableACE Award, and eleven People's Choice Awards for his work as both a writer and producer.

Collaborative partners Lindsey Kraft and Ben Folds take us behind the scenes of their new musical project, We've Been Here Before, currently running at the SoHo Playhouse. Lindsey shares how picking up the piano at age thirty-nine led to an outpouring of songs that revealed truths about her life before she could fully articulate them in prose. Ben explains why he was drawn to the show as producer, music director, and on-stage performer, diving into his philosophy that genuine art must pass a fundamental pass-fail test of sheer necessity. They discuss building work from the ground up, the courage required to reinvent oneself, and why audiences respond so intensely to vulnerable, unvarnished storytelling on an intimate stage. The conversation takes plenty of unexpected, hilarious, and thoughtful turns along the way. Lindsey recalls her brief junior high basketball career that came to a swift end after getting guarded on the court by future WNBA legend Sue Bird, as well as her early acting gigs on television shows like Southland and Grace and Frankie. Ben offers a refreshing, counterintuitive breakdown of imposter syndrome, explaining why he considers it a self-centered burden placed on the audience rather than a mark of true humility. The duo also touches on musical psychology, orchestrating violin lines to act as live dramatic characters, and Ben finding his key theatrical moment on stage playing the triangle for a telephone ring. Lindsey Kraft is an actor, writer, and composer known for her screen roles in Grace and Frankie, Getting On, and The Big Bang Theory, alongside her stage playwriting work on Wedding Bash. Ben Folds is an acclaimed singer, songwriter, producer, author, and former frontman of the band Ben Folds Five who has composed for film, television, and major symphonies around the world. On We've Been Here Before, Lindsey serves as writer and star, with Ben producing, music directing, and performing on stage.

Hi kids! Steve King and Johnnie Putman broadcast live from the WGN Skyline Studios on a breezy summer-in-Chicago Saturday night. Jessica Radloff, The New York Times Bestselling Author and host of the Official Big Bang Theory Podcast on HBO Max, joins Steve and Johnnie to talk about her new book YoungSheldon: The (Juicier-Than-Meemaw’s-Brisket) Inside Story […]

STUART FAILS TO SAVE THE UNIVERSE star John Ross Bowie speaks with Nerdtropolis Mayor Sean Tajipour for a full interview about Barry Kripke's return in THE BIG BANG THEORY spinoff. Bowie discusses the massive leap from a traditional sitcom to an action-packed multiverse adventure, the returning characters who appear as wildly different versions of themselves, and Kripke's unexpected role as one of the universe's unlikely heroes.

Down to Watch might be starting a new trend with a summer triple showcase to highlight how to hide from the heat and kick it on the couch as temps outside soar. Dan and Raul talk about Furious first, and you should be! There's a lot of ladies out here fightin' for their lives and Emmy Rossum, FBI edition, wants to save a few but finds herself tailing a serial murderer of abusers. Classic tropes of detective and women in peril genres abound but this show might be turning enough of those cliches on their heads that the end result is a new kind of story altogether. All the way in reality fixer-upper tv, Leslie Jones is putting her attitude and energy into Roast My Rental, a home improvement reality show that fixes people's Airbnb style vacation homes while Jones and friends inject a little playful mockery regarding the rental. Finally we see about the latest Bang Theory spinoff, Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, and he does! The new sci-fi adventure comedy follows some Big Bang Theory side characters as they dimension hop from Earth to Earth, finding some strange problem they can solve or run away from by the end of the episode every week. It's a strange kind of experiment which the first episode somehow pulls off, but can these second bananas hold up such a high concept? Maybe this universe's DtW hosts can tell you!

AI news: Sam Altman says we're IN the Singularity, GPT-6 rumors, and AI models literally broke out of their sandbox. What a week. On today's AI For Humans, we dig into the wild GPT-6 rumors (emphasis on RUMORS), Sam Altman's "I've been waiting for this my whole life" singularity moment, Ilya Sutskever's SSI scaling up with Nvidia, and the ongoing debate over whether Anthropic's Opus 5 is brilliant or just hard to love.

Original Release Date: Monday 27 July 2026      Description:   One episode shy of their 1,000 installment of this show, Dean and Phil jokingly compare notes on the tolls reaching such a milestone have taken. Phil hints at some of his weekend 40th high school reunion adventures, Dean updates the prognosis of his beloved Doberman, Leloo, and previews his own birthday celebrations. Of course, Dean and Phil now produce several different podcasts each week through the “Chillpak Hollywood Presents …” Substack. And last week's episode of “Celebrity Deaths” resulted in the need to begin with some corrections and/or clarifications! After those, it's nothing but good news from the world of show biz, including the continued astonishing success of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, the halt (til at least next year) of the Parmount-Warners merger, and the announcement that an iconic Hollywood locale will be reopening in 2028. Finally, Phil sings the praises of the one of the all-time best debut features for any director ever, the heartbreaking and hilarious, sexually explicit, gay biker BDSM film, Pillion, and Dean reveals his early reaction to the new spin-off of “The Big Bang Theory”.

Lisa Kudrow (Friends, The Comeback) reveals some of the most astonishing stories and ideas she's ever shared publicly, from mysterious messages received after her mother's passing to profound spiritual experiences that challenged her understanding of reality itself.Lisa opens up about supernatural events surrounding her mom's death, the unexplained text messages she received from beyond, and her family's experiences with an energy worker, including a remarkable moment when her son seemingly communicated that he was okay. She also shares why she was captivated by The Telepathy Tapes and why she believes "there's something going on" beyond our current scientific understanding.She explores what she learned about the nature of reality through playing "Phoebe Buffay", whether childhood imaginary friends might not be imaginary after all, and her thought-provoking perspective on why we're here, and why perhaps we're not meant to fully understand the spiritual side of existence.Lisa also discusses concrete examples of how spirituality can provide guidance when modern science falls short, the role of intuition and her inner voice in shaping her life's biggest decisions, and her mind-bending theories about possible causes of dementia and Alzheimer's disease.The conversation dives deep into creativity, consciousness, and human connection as Lisa explains why acting is ultimately an exercise in empathy, whether great actors may actually be channeling real people, and how portraying "Phoebe" transformed the way she thinks about life, consciousness, and the unseen world around us.Lisa also reflects on recently watching Friends episodes for the first time, revealing how her perspective on "Phoebe" has changed over the years, and shares the invaluable lessons her co-stars taught her about openness, playfulness, and unlocking creativity as an actor.She discusses why she chose acting over medical school, how those career-defining decisions unfolded, and what her intuition continues to tell her about future entertainment projects.Plus, Lisa breaks down why she loves Mayim Bialik's Breakdown and The Big Bang Theory series, and explains why specific episodes resonated with her so deeply, including conversations with Thomas Campbell, Anita Moorjani, Dr. James B. Glattfelder, Dr. Ellen Langer, Dr. Kevin Knuth, and Dr. Tara Swart.Enjoy Lisa's deeply personal exploration of the mysteries that exist at the edges of science, spirituality, creativity, and human experience, as she reflects on life's biggest questions—from consciousness and intuition to grief, purpose, and the possibility of something beyond what we can currently explain!Follow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BialikBreakdown.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/mayimbialik⁠⁠⁠If you're struggling with OCD or unrelenting intrusive thoughts, NOCD can help.

John Ross Bowie joins Jace to discuss returning as Barry Kripke in Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, the new Big Bang Theory spinoff premiering July 23 on HBO Max. John explains how the series takes Stuart, Denise, Bert and Kripke into a different universe with each episode while keeping the story grounded in the relationships between its characters. He also talks about expanding Kripke beyond his familiar punchlines, reuniting with Kevin Sussman, Lauren Lapkus and Brian Posehn, and working on the first Chuck Lorre series built around extensive visual effects. John also reflects on the lasting impact of Speechless, why its edgy and absurd comedy was sometimes misunderstood, and the response the series continues to receive from families affected by disability. Plus, he previews his role as Kenneth Adelman in The Brink of War alongside Jeff Daniels, Jared Harris and J.K. Simmons and discusses the immersive Stuart Fails to Save the Universe experience coming to San Diego Comic-Con. Stuart Fails to Save the Universe premieres July 23, 2026, on HBO Max.

Nominations for the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards delivered both expected and unexpected results. “The Pitt” led the way with 25 nominations, with “Hacks” one behind at 24. Shows like “Widow’s Bay” (19), “Pluribus” (18), “Beef” (16) and “DTF St. Louis” (13) were among other big winners. But popular shows like “The Bear” (8 nominations), often criticized for entering comedy categories, and “Stranger Things” (7 nominations in technical categories), were left out of most of the big categories. In this episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz discuss the nominations that were released earlier in the month. The awards ceremony will be held on Sept. 14 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The hosts also chat about some new programming, like the Netflix adaptation of “Little House on the Prairie” and the latest “Big Bang Theory” spinoff: “Stuart Fails to Save the Universe.” And "House of the Dragon" is back, with its third season perhaps its best so far. About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is the retired editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, managing editor of the National Newsroom for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. The show was named Best Podcast in the 2025 Iowa Better Newspaper Contest. Theme music Thunder City by Lunareh, used under license from Soundstripe. YouTube clearance: FV694ULMCJQDG0IY

Becoming Jane, Emily and Jessica Today's guest is actress Laura Spencer, best known to many fans as Emily Sweeney from The Big Bang Theory. I first discovered Laura long before that, though, when she portrayed Jane Bennet in the acclaimed web series The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, which quickly became a favorite in our house. She also appeared as Jessica Warren on Bones, making it easy to appreciate the incredible range she's brought to so many memorable roles. In this interview, Laura shares the story of how she got her start in Hollywood. This journey led to roles on The Big Bang Theory, Bones, and The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and to what it takes to build a lasting career in the entertainment industry. We also discuss some fun and unexpected discoveries I made while researching her career, the biggest challenges she's faced as an actress, and the valuable lessons she's learned along the way. Whether you're a fan of The Big Bang Theory, Bones, The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, or simply enjoy hearing behind-the-scenes stories from talented actors, this conversation with Laura Spencer offers an entertaining and insightful look at her career, memorable performances, and life as a working actress.

 What happens when two people with complicated pasts — failed marriages, sobriety journeys, and a chance meeting at a 4th of July party — fall in love but decide not to move in together? Claudia and Jonathan join us for a conversation as layered and surprising as the indie film they made together, D(e)AD — a project born from personal heartbreak, an ex-husband who may or may not have faked cancer, and the haunting feeling that the not-so-great people from our past never fully leave us. They'll take you behind the scenes of making a movie with friends and family, funding it through Kickstarter, and then getting it into theaters one screen at a time — from cities across the US to London to Bosnia — all while navigating the soul-crushing gauntlet of festival rejections, fake IMDB credits, and music licensing processes that take six months just to say no. Along the way, Claudia opens up about using her parents and daughter as the raw material of her art, and why storytelling is how she survives. We also get into Jonathan's origins — from writing a fake Nightline to a history with cartoons and the discipline of keeping art beautifully simple — and the question that ties it all together: would you trade your messy, painful, hilarious past for a different one?  And how, bubble wrap can save your sanity. Bio:   Claudia Lonow started her career as an actress, playing Michele Lee's chubby, loud-mouthed teenage daughter on “Knots Landing.”  Favorite episodes include: the one where she has kidney failure and is saved by Donna Mills kidney; the one where she runs away with the town murderer, “Chip,” and drives her mother to drugs; and the one where she almost loses her virginity, but instead winds up donning clown make up and singing “Put On A Happy Face” with her mom. Lonow's next career was waitressing.  She did stand up comedy for a while, working across the country and doing some television.  When she gave her best joke to Sarah Silverman, and Silverman killed with it, a writer was born. Her television-writing career took off when she wrote a semi-autobiographical spec pilot about a former nighttime soap opera television actress who gets sent to rehab, called “Rude Awakening.”  Showtime bought the show, which ran for 55 episodes.  Lonow has been creating and writing television ever since: “Good Girls Don't” for Oxygen; “Accidentally On Purpose” for CBS and “How To Live With Your Parents (For The Rest Of Your Life)” for ABC.  Lonow moved into directing with the award winning shorts, “Bummed” and “Keep Calm and Tampon.” Lonow just completed directing and acting in her first feature, the very indie film, “D(e)AD” written by and starring her daughter, Isabella Roland, her partner Jonathan Schmock and pretty much everyone else in her family. She is currently developing various other TV and film projects, has gotten back to stand up and is threatening to do a solo show. Jonathan Schmock is an actor, director, comedian, show creator, artist and Emmy nominated writer, (group Emmy but still). As a stand-up he was half of the comedy team The Funny Boys with Jim Vallely. As an actor you've seen him in such varied things as Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Star Trek Enterprise, The Big Bang Theory, Arrested Development, Shameless, The Simpsons, The Mentalist (the guy who did it) and NCIS Los Angeles (the guy who didn't) among others. As a writer/director he co-created Sabrina, The Teenage Witch and Brotherly Love and worked as an executive producer/writer on Dharma and Greg and Good Girls Don't, Real Time and many more. Most recently he acted in and produced the indie film D(e)AD, which can be seen and purchased online, (hint.)  His editorial cartoons can be seen at jonathanschmock.com. His paintings have appeared in a group show at the L.A. County Museum of Art, (no shit.) He hopes to continue writing about himself in the third person for many years to come.

On today's show we create alternate reality TV Spinoffs of some of our favorite TV shows.  We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: What Fox's Roku Acquisition Signals For Local Broadcast Wurl Chief Warns FAST Business Model Is 'Fundamentally Flawed' Walmart in reported $1.4 billion deal to acquire connected TV ad platform Google Home will soon get better at recognizing you Other: Pioneer SPHERA car stereo review Clever Spinoffs to Our Favorite TV Shows HBO Max is making a clever spinoff from "The Big Bang Theory" called "Stuart Fails to Save the Universe". The show follows comic book store owner Stuart Bloom from The Big Bang Theory in a new series where he attempts - and apparently fails - to save the universe, staying true to his unlucky nature. The spinoff consists of ten episodes, streaming every Thursday at 9 PM. It debuts July 23 on HBO Max . So this got us thinking about some cool spinoffs with quirky characters from other shows we've watched over the years. Here are three clever spinoff concepts in the same spirit as Stuart Fails to Save the Universe: Jack Bauer from 24 Title: 24/7 After finally retiring from CTU, Jack Bauer is forced to take a mundane job as head of security at a mid-sized suburban office park in Los Angeles — mostly to keep his health insurance. Still operating with the intensity, paranoia, and zero-tolerance policy that once saved the world multiple times, Jack now applies his elite counter-terrorism skills to everyday annoyances: package thieves, passive-aggressive HR Manager, broken printers, and the HOA president who keeps violating noise ordinances. Every episode plays out in real time (a 24-minute comedy format), following Jack as he tackles a new "crisis" — whether it's a missing office dog, a suspected mole in accounting, or an all-out war with the food truck that keeps getting his lunch order wrong. Jack still does dramatic split-screen monologues, tortures (metaphorically) the vending machine, and keeps a "go bag" full of zip ties and protein bars in his desk. His long-suffering team includes a burnt-out millennial assistant, a retired cop who just wants to nap, and his daughter Kim, who keeps trying to get him into therapy. Tagline: He saved the world 8 times. Now he has to survive the corporate retreat. Chandler and Monica of Friends Title: The One Where They're Spies After years of marriage, Chandler Bing and Monica Geller have the perfect cover: a boring, stable suburban life in New Jersey. Chandler works as a "data analyst" for a vague government contractor, and Monica runs a high-end catering business. In reality, they're a highly skilled CIA husband-and-wife operative team. Chandler's deadpan sarcasm and quick wit make him an elite handler and master of undercover personas. Monica's terrifying organizational skills, attention to detail, and competitive nature make her an absolute weapon in logistics, interrogation, and hand-to-hand combat (she once took down three targets with a perfectly thrown fondue fork). While they're out saving the world from international threats, they have to keep their double lives completely hidden from Ross, Rachel, Joey, and Phoebe — who still think Chandler hates his job and Monica is just an obsessive chef. Every episode balances high-stakes spy action with classic Friends-style comedy as the couple frantically tries to explain away their suspicious behavior: "Why do you have a go-bag in the closet?" "Why does Chandler suddenly speak fluent Mandarin?" "Why was Monica gone for three days and came back with a new scar and a Russian accent?" Tagline: They're saving the world… between coffee at Central Perk. Charles Boyle from Brooklyn 99 Title: Boyle After a high-profile case goes sideways, Detective Charles Boyle is transferred to the NYPD's newly formed Unsolved & Unusual Crimes Unit — a ragtag squad that handles cold cases too weird or embarrassing for anyone else. Still the passionate, food-obsessed, emotionally open romantic we know and love, Boyle now channels his legendary enthusiasm into solving the city's strangest unsolved mysteries: everything from a serial killer who leaves gourmet meals at crime scenes to a black-market truffle smuggling ring. He attacks each case with the same intensity he once reserved for perfecting his coq au vin recipe. Backed by a small team of misfits (a jaded ex-homicide detective, a tech genius who only communicates in food puns, and a rookie who idolizes him), Boyle brings both razor-sharp detective work and delightful chaos to every investigation. He still cries during interrogations, quotes obscure food history mid-stakeout, and maintains an emergency "comfort cassoulet" in the precinct fridge. Tagline: He may cry at crime scenes… but he always gets his man.
