great thread. Everyone watch 4 hours of a podcast and contribute to discussion.


DO ET!


Eric Weinstein seems incredibly patient.


cliff notes on what this is?


Cliffs: Terrence went on JRE not too long ago and spewed off a ton of really crazy theories and world views. Like, legitimately crazy. Some of it was math related like the claim that 1x1 = 2. There was a lot of backlash towards Terrence and also towards Joe who just let Terrence go off and didn't challenge him on anything. Eric is a Mathematical Physics PHD who has been on JRE a bunch. Eric wanted to come on with the intent of Steelmanning Terrences claims.

That is the basis for and content of this episode.

I didn't find it particularly interesting as I find the whole situation to be incredibly sad and offputting. Eric is a saint though and there is a lot of interesting discussion if you can get past the absurdity of taking Terrence serious in the first place


Terrence Howard played a role on an old NYPD Blue episode as a mentally challenged man who was pretty dumb.

Spoiler
Show

Why I remember this, I have no idea

Apparently, a role he was born to play.


Thanks coordi!


2+2 undefeated in concise cliffs.

MSchu is a Joe Rogan guy? God damn, that sucks.


If it weren't for 2p2 and the random short videos of NGT saying cool space **** to Rogan that I occasionally come across I wouldn't even know that the show exists. Is there any compelling reason to watch? Who are Eric Weinstein and Terrence Howard?


Don't bother. I don't know why they spent 4 hours entertaining this nonsense.



I click that video, pick a random point, and I hear "He should be publicly humiliated for insisting on this idiocy"

Oh no, someone is wrong on the Internet! Why get so emotionally invested to say such a breathlessly over the top thing like that?
