 @stimpyfisk7258 The word "interesting" has been used for a long time both for stuff that is actually interesting, as well as stuff that you don't really want to share an opinion about.
And while Joe has heard a lot, and knows a lot, he's mainly a talk show host (does he still act?). So he obviously doesn't have the competence to set most people straight if they say stuff that goes over his head.
Fluently spewing gibberish is hard to counter in a live conversation, unless you have extensive competence on the topic the gibberish addresses. So I'm not surprised he didn't call those things crazy. Joe did mention, politely, that "I wish I could really, truly, understand exactly what you're saying.". :)) That was basically "Man, what you just said makes no sense to me." He also said he kind of gets it, but it felt like he was just coming his way a bit.
Getting your hands one someone like Terrance is not easy. The guy is somewhere out there. How many people do we see writing 4 pages about 1 * 1 = 2 and then goes on even deeper on stuff they're obviously not competent with? Joe milked this and if he gets another chance, he'll do it again.
I don't know why Dave thinks Joe should call out the bullshit Terrance said. I'm fine calling it bullshit even without proving why. But face to face with another person you have to be fairly prepared, or it won't go well. Sometimes it's best to give them rope.
