I don't know much about Piers Morgan, but I used to think Eric Weinstein was a pretty smart guy before I saw this interview. I was curious about his geometric theory and was immediately turned off by how he won't actually show it to anyone. *Edit, and talking about it in recorded lectures from decades ago doesn't count.
Look into Decoding the gurus podcast. I felt the same before listening to their analysis. Suddenly all of the small annoying things about Eric become much clearer. He is a clasic grifter that manages to sound smart, while not giving any useful information at the same time.
