Joe Rogan seemed to have exploited this concept to great success. He does not seem to have any more than very superficial or anecdotal knowledge about most topics, just vaguely remembers some bits. Always needs to have things explained from the very start and listens with an open mouth. In the and he is always amazed by what he has learned. Might be common in interview settings but seems to be extraordinarily effective for these long-form podcasts. I remember he got called out for being actually very smart by Jordan Peterson once.
