Mayim Bialik Asks the Question Most Scientists Are Afraid Of @DrBrianKeating

Uploaded June 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Mayim Bialik asks me the questions mainstream science tends to avoid — what came before the Big Bang, whether consciousness is fundamental to reality, and whether God's existence can actually be subjected to scientific testing.

Confirmation bias, Martian meteorites, and the operating system of reality are all on the table.

Mayim Bialik Asks the Question Most Scientists Are Afraid Of

$Is the White Houses New UAP Council a Game Changer for Disclosure? Recently, Professor Avi Loeb was tasked by the White House, AARO, ODNI, and the FBI with assembling and leading a new UAP Science Advisory Council — comprising astrophysicists, AI experts, and psychologists — to advise the intelligence community on unidentified anomalous phenomena. It was announced the same week the government released its third batch of declassified UAP files. Now he joins us live to talk about what that actually means — and what it doesnt. This is not a the aliens are here stream. Its the harder conversation. I study the cosmic microwave background, and when we find an anomaly, we exhaust every instrument artifact and foreground before anyone whispers new physics. I want to know why UAP science should run on a different evidentiary standard — and Loeb is exactly the right person to push on it, because hes already attributing much of the released footage to cosmic rays, balloons, and possibly Chinese drones, while holding the door open for the small fraction that stays unexplained. WHAT WE GET INTO: - The council, its mandate, and the question nobodys asking: does advisory mean anyone has to listen? - The orbs — Chinese surveillance drones, classified US tech, or something else — and the prior youd need before you say non-human - Whether absence of evidence is not evidence of absence gets applied selectively - AI in the Galileo Projects detection pipeline, and the false-positive problem: whats the training comparison class for non-human technology? - The critique that a council built to study the object ignores where the data actually comes from — human witnesses Live audience Q&A and a lightning round in the back half.
