I got caught in the click-bait trap. Shame on me!
I watched it just to find out how in the hell he thought "galactic cosmic rays" were gonna generate rocks to chuck at us. He never explained that, and after years at university studying Physics, Astronomy, and Astrophysics, I have no idea at all what a "galactic cosmic ray" is, anyhow. I know what cosmic rays are, but have never heard them broken down into "galactic cosmic rays" as opposed to cosmic rays from some other, unspecified, source.
Nor did he have any explanation for how he figured these "galactic cosmic rays" are on some kind of time table that would allow him to predict a specific month, let alone a specific date, that they would hit.
So, yeah, I'm gonna put this one in the "he's talking out his ass" column. Nothing he said makes any sense.
But it WAS appropriately named as "WTF files", because it left me wondering "WTF?"

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
