Episode Details

Getting it right is the hallmark of any great scientist. And when we don’t, we should be able to say we were wrong.

In part 2 of debunking all the claims Terrence Howard made on the Joe Rogan Experience, I start by first apologizing for misrepresenting the number of patents Howard has.

Even though he doesn’t have the 97 patents he claimed to have, he does hold quite a few, contrary to my earlier assertions. 

But this episode is not all sunshine and rainbows. I actually go through 17 different newfound complaints about that conversation.

This video will go through each one of those points, and we'll even take a deep dive into one of Eric Weinstein's favorite hobby horses, peer review.
