DescriptionEdit

Eric Weinstein drops bombs on the physics establishment. In this explosive episode of OFF LIMITS, Bryan Callen sits down with the legendary mathematical physicist to discuss why modern physics may be dead, how string theory hijacked academia, and why his “Theory of Everything” took him his entire life to conceive.

Weinstein opens up about:

  • The flawed incentives in academia and peer review
  • Why string theorists “referee their own games”
  • The shocking intellectual dominance of one man that changed physics forever
  • How a viral documentary finally gave his work the spotlight
  • Why he believes humanity won’t survive without interstellar travel
