Julie Bowen: There is No Normal

[@merle309]

I felt like "I need to listen to Mayim again". You make me feel safe, thank you.

[@tammyalbertsen9522]

Julie Bowen is the BOMB! Love her work & she seems even cooler. We coukd totally hang out, be real & LAUGH. Best compliment I could ever give.

[@anneefreres3299]

Love Julie so much and truly appreciate her relatable candor about therapy and feelings and all the cussing makes her feel like a a real friend!

[@Licensed_To_Chill]

I think Julie's first big role that I saw was opposite Adam Sandler in Happy Gilmore. But here she mentions "Ed" which was one of my favorites in the 2000s. She's a really talented actress. I wasn't surprised when Modern Family became such a success.

[@m_brokenleg]

How I love Mayim’s introduction of Jonathan here! “The Return of the Jedi” fits him so well! Welcome back aboard Jonathan. We’ve missed you a lot! And these two women together!! I’m just at the begining and I love yet this episode! Once finished, even more! 💜

[@lorraineanne8766]

Welcome back, Jonathan 💕 Not that I didn't enjoy the episodes you weren't on, but your presence makes it so much better.

[@marisamartinezolivera]

When two smart women sit down and talk, the Devil sits up, listens, takes notes, and learns. And me with him, even being also a woman. 😉Such a delightful episode! And a joy to have Jonathan Cohen (from now on our Bialikbreakdown Jedi 😝) back!

[@sparky711choc]

The quote "death by a thousand paper cuts" is everything!

[@fabiosaraiva2348]

I feel like Julie and Mayim would be such good acting coaches. Not only because I think they are terrific actors, but because, to me, they are so down to earth and relatable. I'd be in cloud nine in the company of these 2 ❤️

[@candicelevesque311]

Yay! Jonathan is back. My fellow Canadian!

[@J33-k3s]

I love that they brought up that people who are dumb or self-centered are happier usually. I have found that to be true, bc they dont concern themselves with outside factors.

[@elizabethrace5406]

Julie Bowen is my new favorite person. I wish she was my next door neighbor. Down to earth and cool AF.

[@pazzastreta]

It has 23 seconds and we are looping at right now! Lote of love Mayim.

[@Scott-yy]

Omg I'm so excited to hear this!! I love Julie Bowen!!! Edit: This was a lovely episode. Julie Bowen is such a funny person and her story with Anxiety and medication really makes me want to learn more and start helping myself through certain means. (Meditation, medicine or Therapy) Her lens while speaking and body language was such fun to watch and listen to. I felt wayyyy better about myself!!! I will be checking her podcast out too!!!

[@darylfayelozada1527]

Two favorites in one!!!! Love Dr. Mayim and Julie Bowen! 🥰 Both BBT and Modern Fam are my fave sitcoms! 🥰 Hello from the Philippines! ❤️

[@carolwilson941]

It was interesting to watch Julie’s body language change as she got more comfortable with the conversation.

[@wannabetrucker7475]

Looking forward to Julie's podcast.

[@ajrcurls4160]

Definitely me! Isolating, alienation people and feeling so hopeless. Working on giving attention to physical and mental health. It’s ongoing struggle.

[@petersdotter1]

Birth order, so true. But, in my family, the middle girl of three, ended up a malignant narcissist. Upon the deaths of each of our parents (long divorced,) she aimed her hatred at me, the oldest-over-achieving- people-pleasing-duty-bound one. The dysfunction of our early years became a game of survival as adults. I am now the outcast, an orphan in every way because I chose to say "no" to her. Mental health is such a complex issue. Therapy, medication, 12-step programs have allowed me to heal and love everyone without becoming entangled in their trauma and chaos. This I know: you cannot heal yourself, because that makes the doctor the patient at the same time.

[@jrtorres6751]

Loved!! Julie, so REAL conversation. Really enjoyed Mayim connecting with Julie..Just felt like I was in the room.

[@CindDJo]

Mayim, I just found your channel. I LOVE what you are doing here. You're so honest and, frankly, it's refreshing. Keep it up!! The world needs this kind of healing.

[@unusualyou00]

Julie Bowen is one of my favorite actresses, I’m so excited for this episode. Yay! And gosh they even mention Maggie Gyllenhaal, my another favorite actress. Whaaaat

[@222dyan]

Same experience, Julie. Death by a thousand paper cuts. I was always looking for the repressed awful memory to explain things, but never found it. A great book that explains the silent neglect in family dynamics, is an old classic by John Bradshaw: On The Family. That was super eye-opening for me. Thanks for sharing I've had that thought often over the years and it's nice to know I'm not alone. Also another factor, which is kind of a new revelation, is the HSP (highly sensitive person) aspect. There are cutting edge books out there on that topic. Which I relate too. Goes to Mayim's point on how we all process life differently. Thanks gals.

[@brendadillon7783]

wow another great show.. who knew julie Bowen? Mayim every time i listen i learn something new! Thankyou johnathan for always being not only a reflection of Mayim but someone who can be objective with such kindness. Love you both!

[@brendadillon7783]

lv

[@apekshaagarwal4430]

Omg!! It is so refreshing to just hear deep and honest conversations, reflecting on journey, not afraid to call yourself out, to understand the time, give due credit and know that your are wip! Love the show.. will surely watch more.. thanks to the team to organise this..

[@sherrytyrner8641]

I loved listening to Julie Bowen! I enjoyed her engaging manner and entertaining manner. Her time seemed to go by too quickly; I wanted to listen to her more. Excellent guest choice!

[@allisons.6355]

I appreciate the conversation about working while you also have small children. Thank you! Great show!!

[@Historian212]

I get that yawning/flooded thing at odd times; occasionally in therapy, but in other situations when I don't want to be in the moment I'm in. It's crazy. Nice to know I'm in good company on that one.

[@litsabryan6085]

I would love to tell you my story of ptsd, crippling anxiety, depression, learning about bipolar. I love watching these. I have learned a lot. Much love

[@forestduffe7640]

I love how mayim brings these guests/ celebrities and have a fascinating , funny interview.

[@tamrahostens1009]

I think the two of you together are seriously electric ⚡️ and I love your banter & honesty! ❤️

[@MariposaRedimida]

Loved Julie Bowen on this episode! Love it when people are cool to share their story and their mental health journey. When you mentioned her stunning blazer, I was like "Yessss!" but hey, aparently even the rich are bound by the human condition... Now I wanna check out that podcast!

[@cjplay2]

I love when you do OTS shots with your guests because it shows connecting, but I am a video nerd and the refresh of that TV you show has got to be a 60hz and so hard to look at. Please get an OLED or something not with an LCD backlight that does a full-panel refresh to minimize that cycling line. Also I get to watch BBT whenever because I'm a WB video tech and that shot of you and Jim standing at the counter with Simon and Kunal wondering "what have we done" is just ingrained in my mind as SO funny. Thank you for your show and your approaches to therapy/connections help me a bundle during this covid time. I also learned a lot from Howie Mandel's episode.

[@laurabaggettLALA]

Wow Julie is amazing, and I love how you let your guests really open up. That was a great interview, Thank you!

[@significantsoil5345]

Freakin LOVE Julie Bowen! Can't wait to hear her podcast

[@nicolewilliams2468]

Excellent interview, as always! I loved Julie Bowen from her Boston Legal days (have never watched Modern Family so don’t have an informed opinion there). SHE’S HILARIOUS!!!! I agree w/ Mayim - Julie might be the only really *pretty person* on this show so far that is ACTUALLY a true nerd, as well. LOVED IT!!!

[@sarty88]

Do yourself a favour & watch Modern Family 🙂

[@sweetafton5655]

As soon as she said ‘weird biblical cartoon’ I knew it was Davie and Goliath. She nailed it too.

[@gelliegelatina]

me too

[@Licensed_To_Chill]

What's funny about that is that Davie and Goliath is mentioned on an episode of TBBT. I can't remember which one, but it was Bob Newhart's Professor Proton character complaining they shared a time slot.

[@darrenmiller6927]

One of your best shows. The 3 of you were super good together. Really great, great show. Love you and Jonathan!

[@pattyclautu1838]

Julie Bowen cusses as much as I do! I really found her so darn real! Loved this episode!

[@duquette5032]

It's ok Julie. I watched Davey and Goliath too.... you did the voice great!

[@MrKgbronx12]

Saw it on The View, and I came right over!!! Hi Mayim!!!

[@rickyisme1230]

Julie is such a down to earth person with great sense of humor ! love the podcast lovely but insightful as always !!!!

[@nomail1681]

I LOVE how JB describes that she took measures to inform herself about taking an Rx during pregnancy and she took those measures in a very intelligent way. It is meaningful - and we're all grateful that she shares this - that she met with ten doctors, that each one was Not "woo woo" type of physician, and she made a decision best for herself from there:)

[@tatersnmaters5302]

Grew up in the 90s and and came home to the triangle!

[@mclamb2011]

You might want to double check your numbers because the count is 1.08M. I feel it should be higher yet as you provide so. Much positive information to us listeners. I am pleased to see Jonathan back!

[@joannaurban2418]

She meant her Instagram

[@kna3577]

Thank you for loading this very entertaining and informative video, I came by your channel a year ago, then I came back and realized ...wow! new content!!! I must tell you that you’ve thrown me a life vest, thank you.

[@brinsonopinion]

Absolutely engrossing, this episode FLEW by for me. Great job all around!

[@nancymonahan7952]

I watched that Julie!! Davey and Goliath rocked!

[@JimMcNicholas]

Welcome back jonathan!

[@katiegreenwood8738]

Love the perspective Jonathan imparted around 51 mins, and Julie and Mayim’s contribution around this. I’d love to read the ‘research and thinking’ he talks about more, does he have links to that information. I’ve been listening to ‘The Child Whisperer by Carol Tuttle and it talks about the natural tendencies that different types of people are born with, and it’s these natural tendencies that can be shut down by this misalignment. Julie references the differences that her children have and how she parents them intuitively differently, due to the natural tendencies they present to her, she’s doing a great job. 👌🏻 Worth a listen or read even if you are an intuitive parent, it’s very validating to see those tendencies in your children when you’ve parented them this way, it also helps to understand differences of everyone around you. 💕

[@BlueSky-ff4oy]

Dear Mayim, this was truly extremely "real". Wonderful truth speak by someone I loved from Bosyon Legal, and of course yourself. Great topics about very relevant and real things. I READ that exact meditation article Julie referred to. It was very concise and scientific and inspirational.

[@significantsoil5345]

59:34 Julie- I've always said Mayum, why have you never corrected me before? Mayim- Because you won the Emmy, I didn't wanna say anything 🥴 Mayim is such a mood 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@terribohn7588]

Yep Davey and Golaith! Been there!

[@lenaburns]

Thank you for doing this podcast.

[@SL313]

Thank you again for this amazing gift!!!

[@greykitty61]

While I love these shows and respect Mayim's opinions, you have to remember that a lot of people have atypical reactions to pharmaceuticals. I cannot take any type of anti depressants because they make me suicidal. I have dangerous reactions to many meds and vaccines that most people have no reactions to. So you just can't recommend that everyone get on meds. Marijuana helps me with stress more than anything else, I also practice EMDR with a very good psychiatrist!

[@rainspiritflower2385]

💚 Such an important post. Thank you. I hope your healing is going well. I am really struggling. Hard to find someone good to help a former helper. Thanks again for your very important post. And I wish you all the best, truly.

[@BeeKnown]

Recently discovered your podcast and just bingeing all the past episodes. Really enjoyed this conversation, loved the open discussion about medication and totally relate to that feeling of being worried other people could read your mind. Would love for you to interview Debby Ryan, she seems so curious and eager to learn from others and is really focussed on mental health and having conversations with people about those things.

[@filthyimpetuoussoul6220]

"The Three" was a show I loved and Julie was in it.

[@debraporter2805]

This was an amazing episode. 3 kids very different

[@gladyswhitescott4641]

I fell in love with Julie's talents on the TV show Ed. This was a delightful interview.

[@clairedouglas1726]

I loved this episode julia was awesome , Mayim you were amazing as usual this show is growing so much I’m so proud of everything you are doing you really are a fantastic role model and I absolutely love you thank you for this brilliant podcast show it really is the best , love u Mayim ❤️xx

[@TheShhSecret]

I have been a casual listener of this podcast for some time but this episode has made me resolve to listen to more. What an excellent conversation, and how delightful to know Julie Bowen is very relatable. Also I LOVE Even The Rich!!

[@tictocsick6225]

You are all amazing!!!!! Seriously I watch both shows by you lovely ladies. You both are such beautiful women, you both truly are so incredibly amazing. And of course, Jonathan is fabulous as always.

[@katinadiep9268]

My fave show ever! Julie is funny without a script!

[@Pacamamma]

Loved Ed! Love this. Thank you.

[@stevenruiz6507]

Julie is funny. I laughed out loud a few times. I really like this podcast.

[@Sketcher93]

We grew up with Davey and Goliath also. They were claymation type characters you had to love them. We were too young to resent the biblical connection.

[@tjmcguire9417]

What you do is hugely valuable. Thank you. To give actors another medium and allow them to be real may be the best thing ever. You are the Sean Evans of "Hot Brains". Total sdelight; However they first wrote Amy on BB.... did not matter. From what I see you took her on and made her real. You SLAYED it. Thank you. I found her by far the most engaging and deep person in the series. Always wondered. What's she going to do next?? 8-)

[@kazferns64]

Omg. Davey and Goliath. Alison Arngrim's mom did a lot of voices for that show and many others. Of course, Alison is known for portraying Nellie Oleson on Little House on the Prairie.

[@tiffanyleftridge2016]

Yes-another meditator!!! It DOES WORK 😌

[@NatalieGelman]

This was a great interview but I also really loved your observations about the pros and cons of being around a partner as you work. So true in my experience too. 🙏🏻❤️

[@narcisherrera1178]

What an amazing episode! Getting to know Julie this way makes me love her even more ! Great interview

[@Sketcher93]

Another great conversation. May I suggest a guest? As I'm sure you already know, Amy Schneider lost tonight on jeopardy. Could we please get to know her through your show? She is amazing and she's surely been through a lot.

[@ireneryan7654]

Closest to the bomb blast ( the 1st time I've heard that). As far as positive shows out of BaltimoreDuff Goldman's; Ace of Cakes/ Charm City Cakes.💜

[@lacylashay83]

Absolutely loved this episode Julie is amazing and of course I learn something from mayim every time I listen 💟💟💟

[@GatorJess]

Wow, this was so enlightening for me as a mom of three! ❤️

[@OK-jt8qg]

For the OG nerds, I wonder if anyone will relate to this...You know that saying "they peaked in high school"? My bullies peaked in high school. If you met them now, you might assume they were nerds. On the contrary, I am the legit nerd who peaked later in life. I've felt the pain of not fitting in. Inside, I still see myself as the dorky kid and I'm taken aback when someone compliments me. I get it, it's annoying when people jump on the nerd train just to seem interesting or intelligent. But appearance is a poor metric when judging nerd status. Like Mayim said, it only took one conversation to get past that with Julie.

[@TammyS-wt3qp]

I completely relate to this! And yes, I see people who really aren't nerds jumping on the nerd culture bandwagon to seem cool. But you called it, appearances don't determine being a nerd. And just because someone isn't a typical nerd, doesn't mean they don't have intelligence either.

[@keramiroberts6695]

One of my favourite episodes of Big Bang Theory was based on that premise. (s8 e22). Very true

That was so fun! I had no idea Julie Bowen had such a potty mouth, but I'm into it! 😁

I laughed so hard when Miayim thought that Julie didn’t know her name (which would’ve been so LA) but really was asking for her middle name. 😅

Love Julie Bowen so much. The only thing I disagree with her is on the woo woo thing. I love to be woo woo, because in the end of days the brain won't survive but the soul is always existent.

[@LudvikM]

It'll never cease to amaze me that people think "Modern Family" is her best work. If you haven't seen her in that "little show" called "Ed", do yourself a favor and check it out. If, after that, you don't think it is every bit as charming and addictive as, I don't know, "Northern Exposure", I'll give you back the money you paid for the... streaming service? DVDs? Oh, right, it has NEVER ben released ANYWHERE, so you cannot possibly know how amazingly wonderful Ed Stevens, Carol Vessey and everyone else were. Such a shame.

[@jamiersher5131]

I have a weird condition where I pass out or lose control of my body when I'm laughing at something really unexpected. It also happens now when I feel unwhelmed in a conversation when I'm upset/angry. My doctors have said this is normal. I would love to hear Mayim's thoughts on this.

[@cyn6432]

Mayim, you’re bucking amazing and yo you’re a star. You host jeopardy, chosen with the host of 36 years. I was also a Blossom fan. You’re a rockstar and if you don’t think you are just pretend like you’re a freakin rockstar.
