It's funny that Eric's idea of who the leaders in the field are is the same as that of an amateur science enthusiast who's otherwise ignorant of the field.

@EricRWeinstein A new low Brian, sad to see you hanging out with these narcissists.

Irresponsible garbage. You should be ashamed of yourself

@EricRWeinstein Yet another in a series of “oh for fucks sake, Brian”.

@EricRWeinstein Is this a new one?

WATCH: “The most important interview of all time, it solves the human condition, ends the turmoil & suffering in the world & finally makes sense of our lives” – Professor Harry Prosen, Former President of the Canadian Psychiatric Association.

@EricRWeinstein The number of 'real physicists' making fun of Loeb/Weinstein (instead of simply ignoring them) shows that they have some good points. Example: Let's face it: Lots of people in the industry say fundamental physics is stuck.

@EricRWeinstein Leonard Susskind would 1v3 all of you without breaking a sweat.

@EricRWeinstein lets just go in a different direction. Where falsifiable tests are considered like its science. Claims, no matter how outrageous, are considered. or a framework is provided for them to be considered.

@EricRWeinstein Thanks this was … good… to say the least

@EricRWeinstein Great interviews! I learned a lot.
