The Bagel Report

All of our Hanukkah dreams come true for this conversation with the prolific and brilliant Critics’ Choice Award winning actress, neuroscientist, author, mom and mogul-in-the-making Mayim Bialik. Mayim tells the Bagels about filming her new show “Call Me Kat” (Jan. 3 on FOX) during the pandemic and her “Breakdown” (new mental health podcast). Later they get into a conversation about non-Jewish actors playing Jewish roles and breaking down gender and body stereotypes in Hollywood.

Plus, we ask Mayim a question she’s never been asked in an interview before! Here’s a hint: it’s about her characters and Bat Mitzvah themes!

Tune in for one interview with enough content to last all eight days of Hanukkah! Happy Hanukkah to all, and to all a good night. 🙂
