The Joe Rogan Experience.
Showing by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day.
Gentlemen, here we go. Terrence, thank you for coming back. It was a lot of fun having you on the first time. Obviously, a lot of people wanted to talk to you after they heard all these ideas of yours. And then my friend Eric reached out and he said he would love to do it. Eric, one of my most brilliant friends.
Tell everybody your background, like your academic background, so people understand what you do.
Sure. So I'm a PhD in mathematics, specifically in mathematical physics. I've had positions in economics, mathematics, and physics departments at places like MIT, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Harvard, after my doctorate, Oxford. And I'm a Podcaster in part. Very good podcaster. Boosted.
Bring it back to portal. You have a lot to do with all of these things, Joe. One of my favorite episodes of any podcast was your interview with Werner Herzog. Oh, man. That was a great episode. Have you had him in here? I have not, but I would love to. Because it seems to me like that's the conversation I want to listen to.
I would like to corner him because I believe that Grizzly Man was a secret comedy. I really do. There's something about the way he edited Grizzly Man. I'm like, this motherfucker is being funny on purpose. I know he is. I know he's editing these short clips. So the guy's so ridiculous that you start laughing. I didn't see it.
You haven't seen Grizzly Man? We have different tastes. How dare you? By the way. It's a work of art. I need to also just say that I was not... Terrence, I think, I heard him on TMZ. I was not looking for a debate.
I wanted to make sure that Terrence had his position steel manned so that anything that he didn't know how to do within mathematics that was legit gave a chance to put his best foot forward before he got reviewed. And I didn't ask to come on. You asked to have me on. I'm happy to do it because I'm a friend of the show.
