Recorded live at London’s Natural History Museum on November 24,
2025. Breaking Bad fanatics, have a fresh pair of trousers at the
ready—Bryan Cranston delivers an unforgettable conversation packed
with behind-the-scenes stories from his years playing Walter White.
He shares how DEA agents taught him the fundamentals of meth
production, what he learned shadowing a USC chemistry professor to
prepare for the role, and the surprising science details the show
actually got right. A Hollywood legend through and through,
Cranston does not disappoint. Joining him is the eminent Alan
Hart—mineralogist, science historian, and keeper of extraordinary
knowledge about the material world. Hart breaks down the real
science behind Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle, the intricate
chemistry of organic and inorganic crystal structures, and the
remarkable history of how the Periodic Table came to be. Together,
Cranston and Hart illuminate the scientific heart of Breaking Bad
in a way fans have never heard before.
