Into the Impossible With Brian Keating

Terrence Howard and Candace Owens: The Wildly Unhinged World of Celebrity Science


Listen Later

Is Terrence Howard onto something, or is he completely off the rails with his wild theories?

In this episode, I was privileged to appear on Piers Morgan Uncensored, alongside Eric Weinstein and Tom Bilyeu to dissect the viral phenomenon of Terrence Howard's unconventional theories on Joe Rogan's podcast and their impact on public perception of science.

The conversation touches on the impact of social media in amplifying non-expert voices and the need for scientists to better communicate with the public.

We also highlight the tension between established scientific methods and popular skepticism, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
