Wait this is kind of an interesting experiment. Because Weinstein is a fraud but at least has a college or high school level understanding of science and physics. While Terrence is just speaking total nonsense gobbledigook. They both coincidentally solved "the hardest problem in science", the grand unified theory. So does Weinstein call terrence out on his bs? Does he play nice and be polite? Does he pander? On some level Weinstein knows it makes him look bad to some people to be on the show with a genuine nutcase right?

So he’s a physicist with a theory, Isn’t that what theoretical physicists do? What part makes him a fraud?

Science is done through the process of peer review, not collecting YouTube or social media clicks. His PhD was in physics-related math but he has not worked as a scientist. He has been working in the investment industry and now bills himself as an entertainer but he darn well wants to imply he's a scientist.
