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.

The pantheon of elite cornerbacks has a high barrier to entry. Outside of quarterback, there may be no harder position to play in football than cornerback.The position requires a rare combination of size, speed, fluid hips, elite reaction time and overall toughness to play it at the highest level. As the NFL's crop of wide receivers continues to improve, it's never been more important to have shutdown cornerbacks to defend against them. Modern safeties are versatile, and teams are deploying them in different parts of the field with frequency. The latest trend in the NFL is utilizing a safety with size as a "big nickel," putting them in the slot to disrupt closer to the line of scrimmage. This year's safety group features at least two dozen quality players worth consideration but not many truly elite players. Here are the league's top 7 safeties as voted on by our listeners and the braintrust here at FSP Check out Episode #617 as @JaiHov , @JEasley84 , @Lock_Tha_Great and @FSP_Wezzy ranking the league's top 7 CORNERBACKS and SAFETIES as voted on by our listeners and the braintrust here at FSP #FSPSTYLE **Full Sport Press Episode #618 Breakdown**00:00-Intro9:00- Weezy's Yellow Box of Cereal Award: Bam Adebayo vs. Tyler Herro13:30- 1st Half Intro14:10-TOP 7 NFL CORNERBACKS For 202643:25- FSP HALFTIME- ICYMI- Madden 99 Club Unveiled45:50- 2nd Half: TOP 7 NFL SAFETIES For 2026

Former CIA Targeting Officer Sarah Adams reveals what she believes are some of the biggest national security threats facing the United States today, and why many Americans may have a false sense of security about the future.In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Sarah explains why the U.S. could be more vulnerable to terrorist attacks than many realize, whether the U.S. is currently facing an active terrorist threat, and how the same types of intelligence disconnects that contributed to 9/11 could still exist today. She breaks down why we need to rethink what a future homeland attack might actually look like, how terrorist organizations are evolving, and why groups like Al Qaeda may be more widespread than ever.Sarah shares shocking insights into sleeper cells operating within the U.S., foreign actors intentionally fueling political division to increase influence, the strategic relationship between Al Qaeda, Iran, and Syria, and why many terrorist groups are now organized around waves of coordinated attacks.She also discusses emerging security concerns, including airport vulnerabilities, the return of threats similar to the Shoe Bomb and the rise of "invisible" bombs, and what she believes went wrong from a security standpoint during the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting incident.Drawing from years spent targeting some of the world's most dangerous terrorists, Sarah recounts how she helped capture the Taliban's number two leader, the intelligence work that made it possible, and what qualities allowed her to gather critical information in some of the most hostile environments on Earth.We also explore intelligence deception campaigns, how disinformation operations work, and the warning signs people should recognize when evaluating information online.Sarah reveals what it was like to interrogate Middle Eastern male detainees as a Western woman, how individuals become radicalized, and the indoctrination systems inside terrorist camps that determine whether recruits become fighters, suicide bombers, propagandists, or support personnel.She explains how corruption within humanitarian systems can allow resources to be diverted toward terrorist organizations and how ordinary people may unknowingly contribute to funding foreign terrorist camps.We also break downHavana Syndrome, alleged energy weapon incidents, reports involving an investigator connected to the Epstein case, and what is currently known (and still unknown) about these controversial claims.Sarah also discusses the role of social media algorithms in radicalization, whether platforms like TikTok are shaping the opinions of younger generations, and the broader information war being fought online.She opens up about living under a bounty, receiving threats from terrorist organizations, dealing with alleged surveillance around her home, and how she manages the psychological stress that comes with being a target. She shares practical advice on disaster preparedness, what average citizens can do to become more resilient during crises, and why the culture of terrorism has far more to do with ideology, power, and human behavior than religion itself.This conversation will challenge the way you think about terrorism, national security, online influence, and the risks that could define the next decade!Sarah Adam's Podcast, The Watch Floor: https://www.youtube.com/@thewatchfloorSarah Adams' Book, Benghazi, Know Thy Enemy: A Cold Case Investigation: https://a.co/d/09aeb3tGFollow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/BialikBreakdown.comYouTube.com/mayimbialikSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The United States is bombing Iran for a fourth straight night, Senator Lindsey Graham is dead and his Senate seat went to his sister, the agency that certifies your voting machines just got emptied by email, and a text message that would not admit it was a bot tried to move Radell's opinion on Israel. The thread tonight is one question: who actually gets to decide, and who is being kept out of the room? In this episode of Purple Political Breakdown: Iran and the Strait of Hormuz: the June memorandum collapsed, the strikes and the naval blockade are back, oil is near 85 dollars, and the White House position keeps reversing faster than it can be reported. Why the missing story is not the policy, it is the absence of one. Lindsey Graham: the senator's death, the appointment of his sister Darline Graham Nordone to the seat on the President's recommendation, and an honest look at the record, including the 2016 Merrick Garland blockade and the 2020 Amy Coney Barrett confirmation eight days before the election. The Election Assistance Commission: what this quiet agency actually does for your vote, why firing every commissioner months before a midterm matters, and the receipts that connect it to the SAVE Act, the DOGE and True the Vote data deal, the ERIC exodus, and the CISA cuts. Breakdown in the Public: the "Friends for Peace" texts Radell received, traced by reporters to Brad Parscale's firm and a nine million dollar Israeli Foreign Ministry contract, plus fresh polling on where American opinion on Israel actually stands. Research on a Dime: the Maine Senate scramble to replace Graham Platner and who the Democrats might pick, and the new 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act that became law without a signature. Good News to close: Pakistan's rooftop solar boom, a landmark NHS heart-attack prevention rollout, and a gene therapy giving deaf children their hearing. NEW: main shows are now live on Wednesdays, and the full podcast episode now drops Thursdays at 8am EST. CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro, updates, and tonight's through-line 5:24 Nuanced News.

You built your firm to give yourself freedom. So why does it feel like you've never been more trapped? If your alarm goes off at five, your laptop comes on vacation with you, and the only way the work gets done is when you do it yourself, this conversation will land hard.In this episode, Gary sits down with Simone Fulmer Gaus, co-founder of Fulmer Sill and author of The Set-Up, to unpack why most lawyers stay stuck even after they leave the firm that was burning them out. Simone shares the Texas highway breakdown that cracked her open, the near-payroll-miss that forced her to stop lying to herself, and the five-pillar framework that has since grown her firm more than twenty times in revenue without burning out the people inside it. If you are tired of being the bottleneck in your own practice, this is the blueprint."If the foundation is breaking, it doesn't matter that you're putting fancy paint on the wall. Marketing is a tactic. The foundation is whether your team is ready when the cases come in."Key TakeawaysRecognize the trap: most lawyers rebuild the same broken model in their own firm with themselves at the centerStop fixing the surface: marketing, hiring, and software cannot repair a weak foundationBuild on five pillars: People, Pipeline, Process, Product, and ProfitabilityReframe pipeline as the full client journey, not just a marketing funnelBuild the firm as something separate from you, so it can outlast you and grow beyond youAsk the harder question first: what do you actually want, not what success is supposed to look likeStart tomorrow by sorting every part of your firm under the five pillars to see where the chaos really livesIf this conversation resonated, share it with a colleague who needs to hear it, and take a moment to follow the show and leave a review so more attorneys can find it.

What if the truth about UAPs is far stranger and far more unsettling than we've been told?In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet, PhD, US Navy (Ret.) - former oceanographer, retired Rear Admiral, and author of Holding Fast in Heavy Seas - reveals why he believes some of the biggest secrets surrounding UAPs (UFOs) may be hidden beneath Earth's oceans.After serving 32 years in the U.S. Navy, Gallaudet personally witnessed now-declassified UAP evidence and became one of the first people to view the now-famous "Go Fast" Navy video while it was still classified. He explains why he immediately knew the technology wasn't American or from any known adversary, and why the government kept the footage hidden for years.We dive deep into reports of mysterious craft operating both above and below the ocean, the seemingly impossible physics required for these objects to transition seamlessly between air and water, and why he believes our oceans may hold critical clues to understanding the true origins of nonhuman intelligence.We also discuss why eyewitness testimony remains one of the most important forms of evidence, how he personally gathers reports from fellow servicemen and submits them to official government agencies, and why official confirmation always seems to be delayed with calls for "more data."Adm. Gallaudet also helps us tackle some of the most controversial questions surrounding disclosure:- Could quantum mechanics help explain UAPs?- Do UAPs actually change form depending on the observer?- Why do encounters with nonhuman intelligence profoundly transform the people who witness them?- Is the unsettling possibility that humanity is not in control the real reason disclosure has moved so slowly?We explore the intersection of UAPs with the paranormal, including government-funded remote viewing and ESP research, what those programs may imply about consciousness and psi phenomena, why childhood paranormal experiences may make some people more receptive to later mystical encounters, and whether proving UAPs could fundamentally reshape our understanding of reality itself.Adm. Gallaudet also breaks down:- Which presidential administrations may or may not have had access to information about nonhuman intelligence (Did President Nixon showed comedian Jackie Gleason an alleged alien body?)- Whether mysterious cattle mutilations could represent nonhuman intelligence monitoring humanity's food supply- Why he believes intelligent life almost certainly exists elsewhere in the universe- Why the public deserves transparency about discoveries that could fundamentally change our understanding of reality, and why no government should gatekeep truths of that magnitudeIf you've ever wondered whether the biggest mystery isn't in space but beneath our oceans, this is a conversation you won't want to miss!Adm.

In this episode of The Breakdown, we dive into the wild rumors surrounding the senior Senator's health following his recent hospitalization. While reports swirl that McConnell is incapacitated, his closest allies—including conservative pundit Scott Jennings, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, and Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso—are working overtime to convince the public that he is fully functional and mentally sharp.From alleged 20-minute phone calls discussing Ukraine and the Supreme Court to official press statements, we look at the narrative the Republican establishment is pushing and ask the question: Are they telling the truth, or is this just damage control?

Ritu has started her e-commerce journey as an Etsy seller over ten years ago. She is the CEO of PPC Ninja, a software tools and services provider managing Amazon ads for six, seven, and eight figure brands. As someone who is really passionate about data science and advertising, Ritu has dozens of PPC mastermind programs, workshops, and webinar and has even trained hundreds of Amazon sellers on PPC. She has shared her knowledge on over 100 podcasts, webinars, blogs and conferences including the Prosper Show, Global Sources Summit, Powwow, the Billion Dollar Seller Summit, and many more. So with that introduction, Ritu, welcome to the show.Ritu 00:00:50 Josh, thank you so much for having me. I am super excited to be here and to talk all about PPC today.Josh 00:00:58 What is what would you recommend from the hundreds of accounts that you viewed. The sellers that are using your platform and software. What do you see right now is a healthy balance of PPC sales to organic sales for an established brand.Ritu 00:01:14 Yeah, and I think it's very dependent on the category. Some categories are so saturated that 60, 40, 60 PPC and 40% organic is becoming the norm. For example, just to give you an example from the pet space just so crowded, like especially if you're, you know, selling any kind of like, dog toys or, you know, pet products and things like that. there's so much competition there that, you know, 50 to 60% coming from ads is pretty normal. Like, there's no chance you can compete with mainland Chinese brands with just organic. They've already got 20,000 reviews and more like, how can you, you know, how can you even compete? Begin to compete with that, right? So the ads become your only way, your only chance of being seen. And that leads to the 6040 ratio. But in some of the other categories where it's a little bit more, you know, difficult for anyone to imitate you or to provide services that, you know, require human, you know, intensive work like support or whatever, like after the fact, it's probably still okay to get like 40% from, ads and 60% from organic.Ritu 00:02:37 So let's say research heavy products or products that require or have a good margin. Right? Have a good margin, that are not so easy to imitate those categories. You're still seeing quite a healthy ratio. So it totally depends on the category. I would recommend just making a note of that number today and just watching it over time. Because just baseline it and then you'll see whether it's going up or down.Josh 00:03:04 Yeah that's good input. And on that note, while we're talking about metrics, what do you see as a healthy tacos percentage for an established brand. And I'm sure it changes based on what category you're in. For sure, if you're supplements, you're playing a much longer term game and you're playing on subscriptions and repeat customers. But let's say for an average brand, right, that has, you know, one time customers more often than not. What do you think is kind of the ballpark tacos number to ensure that they're they're healthy and competitive across the board?Ritu 00:03:39 Yeah. So that's such a great question.Ritu 00:03:41 Really $1 million question. So okay, here's what I think of tacos. Now your tacos is going to be different at different stages of your journey. So you know when you are starting off your tacos, needs to be competitive with the market. You can't be looking at tacos as a profitability metrics. It's more of like, what's the maximum I can afford to spend in order to get this business off the ground? But then as time progresses and you start to see, you know, revenue coming in, flywheels working, everything is going fine. Then you start to tweak the, you know, the tacos target a little bit to kind of make it more profitable. so I think, it's a kind of, it's a calculation that I, look for at three points. So I look at spend. I look at revenue and I look at profits. Right. So initially, when you're just starting off, you know, even the smallest amount of spend will result in a drop in profits. You know, you're starting off.Ritu 00:04:54 You're spending money on ads. All of that is eating into your profits. But at a certain point the the spend as you increase your ad spend, it's actually going to generate revenue for you. Right. So what's the sweet spot when those two lines kind of cross over? that's the target tacos that is going to shift with, with, you know, the maturity of your of your account. So, we do say that the guideline is we don't want to spend more than 50% of net margin for your for your advertising. So I guess if you can keep that just general rule of thumb in mind, you should be fine. so no more than 50% of net margin. eventually you want...
In this episode, I sit down with Marko, Co-founder of Tapir Protocol, to break down one of the most underappreciated risks in DeFi , depegging. We dig into how stablecoins and yield-bearing assets can lose their peg, what the real financial damage looks like (spoiler: up to $3.3 billion in losses between 2020 and 2025), and how Tapir is building a smarter, fully automatic, non-custodial solution to protect investors without sacrificing yield or capital efficiency. Marko walks me through how Tapir splits a single asset into a depeg-protected version and a yield-boosted version, letting the market price the risk rather than a committee deciding your claim. Whether you manage a treasury, run a fund, or just want safer DeFi yields, this conversation is packed with practical insight.

Gallaudet also helps us tackle some of the most controversial questions surrounding disclosure:- Could quantum mechanics help explain UAPs?- Do UAPs actually change form depending on the observer?- Why do encounters with nonhuman intelligence profoundly transform the people who witness them?- Is the unsettling possibility that humanity is not in control the real reason disclosure has moved so slowly?We explore the intersection of UAPs with the paranormal, including government-funded remote viewing and ESP research, what those programs may imply about consciousness and psi phenomena, why childhood paranormal experiences may make some people more receptive to later mystical encounters, and whether proving UAPs could fundamentally reshape our understanding of reality itself.Adm. Gallaudet also breaks down:- Which presidential administrations may or may not have had access to information about nonhuman intelligence (Did President Nixon showed comedian Jackie Gleason an alleged alien body?)- Whether mysterious cattle mutilations could represent nonhuman intelligence monitoring humanity's food supply- Why he believes intelligent life almost certainly exists elsewhere in the universe- Why the public deserves transparency about discoveries that could fundamentally change our understanding of reality, and why no government should gatekeep truths of that magnitudeIf you've ever wondered whether the biggest mystery isn't in space but beneath our oceans, this is a conversation you won't want to miss!They can't harm you, if they can't find you!

The Universe Is WAY Stranger Than You Think… And Physics Might Prove ItWhat if EVERYTHING you thought you knew about reality is incomplete, or just flat-out wrong?In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Lara B. Anderson (theoretical physicist & string theory expert) reveals the shocking truths about our universe that most people, even die-hard science fans, completely misunderstand. From hidden dimensions to time behaving differently across the cosmos, this conversation will change how you see existence itself.Dr. Anderson breaks down:- Why string theory could be the missing key to EVERYTHING, uniting quantum mechanics & relativity, redefining reality itself- Real explanation behind dark matter & dark energy, and what might actually be powering the expansion of the universe- Unsettling truth about the fate of the universe: are we heading toward another Big Bang, or total catastrophe?- How physics proves time isn't universal and why it behaves differently depending on where you are in the universe (and what that means for time travel)- Difference between multiverse vs. extra dimensions, and the actual physics suggesting both could exist- What other dimensions might look like & why we can't directly see them…yet- The true shape of the universe- Why studying the Big Bang might tell us exactly where everything is headed next- How math lets us explore realities we physically can't access due to technological & budget limits- What exists beyond our solar system & how much we still don't understand- Why life almost certainly exists elsewhere and what discovering alien civilizations could mean for humanity- Could AI finally solve the impossible math behind string theory?- Possibility of undiscovered particles that could completely rewrite physics- Surprising truth about The Big Bang Theory TV show from a physicist's perspective - what it got right & what physicists complained aboutThis isn't just physics. It's a full-on reality check.If you've ever wondered what the universe is really made of, where it's going, and whether we're just scratching the surface of something far bigger, this is the episode you can't afford to miss!Receive a free LMNT Sample Pack with purchase just visit https://drinklmnt.com/mayimHead to https://www.Superpower.com and use code BREAK at checkout for $20 off your membership.

The World's #1 leading authority on behavior profiling, nonverbal human communication, influence, and persuasion, Chase Hughes, reveals the psychological systems secretly shaping modern society, and why he believes humanity is living through the biggest PSY OP in history.From government manipulation and engineered division to consciousness, DMT, spirituality, and the loneliness epidemic, this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown goes far beyond politics and exposes the hidden forces influencing how we think, behave, comply, and perceive reality itself.Chase explains why anger is the media's most powerful weapon, how fear and tribalism are used to manipulate entire populations, and why most people don't realize they're being psychologically programmed in real time. He breaks down his FATE Model (Focus, Authority, Tribe, Emotion) and reveals how governments, institutions, and social media exploit ancient mammalian survival instincts to control human behavior.He also shares why he believes the global response to Covid was the largest psy op ever conducted, why ostracization is humanity's deepest fear, and how the threat of social rejection can override logic, morality, and independent thinking.The conversation then takes a profound turn into spirituality, altered states of consciousness, and the nature of reality itself.After 9 military deployments and witnessing the psychological effects of violence and desensitization, Chase began searching for deeper answers about consciousness, meaning, and human connection. He describes his first guided DMT experience as “death by astonishment” and “smoking an alien microchip,” revealing the mysterious “code” he saw during the experience and why it completely transformed his understanding of reality, and saved his life.Chase explores whether consciousness is something we create or something we access, why “everything is consciousness” could explain quantum entanglement, and why some people appear to be “banned” from the DMT realm entirely.He also breaks down the hidden similarities across ancient spiritual texts, the most repeated phrase throughout human history's sacred writings (including 7 Hermetic Principles & the Emerald Tablets), the illusion of separation, and why modern society may be engineering psychopathic behavior through digital isolation and performative social media culture.Chase Hughes also breaks down:- Why history predicts future government behavior- Psychology of mass compliance- Why social media may be destroying authentic human connection- Whether anyone can truly live authentically anymore- Loneliness epidemic & digital relationships- Why we have more in common with political opponents than with the people manipulating us- What humanity gets wrong about prayer- How perception of reality became the throughline of Chase's life work- Why manipulation works best when people believe they are immune to itThis is one of the deepest conversations we've ever had on psychology, consciousness, propaganda, spirituality, manipulation, human behavior, DMT, media control, social engineering, and the future of society.NCI, the world's #1 behavior profiling and influence training: https://nci.university/Follow us on Substack for Exclusive Bonus Content: https://bialikbreakdown.substack.com/BialikBreakdown.comYouTube.com/mayimbialikSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
