Joe Rogan vs Eric Weinstein #1628

Anyone else listen to this podcast? Weinstein tried to introduce a unified mathematical theory of some kind, saying it was his life’s work. He unveiled it on a website that he jokingly named “pullthatupJamie”.com. Joe was clearly not happy about the website and told Eric he was doing a bad job explaining the theory. It was awkward as fukk.

Eric and Brett Weinstein are supremely unimpressive to me. That’s probably because I’m a literal dumbass.

But srs, I’ve never found them compelling. They are both extremely eminent in their domains. They even espouse some ideas that are interesting.

But a lot of it is so esoteric and beyond the realm of grasp for even educated laymen, that their rhetoric just seems like a fat guy sitting there and really happy with himself for accomplishing nothing but “research”.

Correct me if I’m wrong

I haven’t had as much engagement with Bret, and in terms of math and physics, I don’t understand much of what Eric says and don’t think he’s great at explaining technical things. I have found Eric’s discussions with guests in his own podcast and his grasp of world events and social trends to be more interesting than his explanations of math.

Saw the episode. Joe wasn't able to keep up, as expected.

They're both smart but Bret is a pussy and Eric is a douche.
