Scientists are also presenting their theories in podcasts so that people who are not their scientific peers might get the benefit of their work. Are you suggesting that not be done?
I actually did a search for papers by her using different academic search tools. Nothing even close to this topic came up. If she has submitted a paper on this for peer review she's gone to great lengths to keep it a secret, while at the same time publishing a YouTube video on it. So yeah, take that for what its worth.
I did browse through some of what she has published and she does seem to like to push the boundaries of sensationalist, "alternate science," wishful thinking. If she keeps going the History Channel may just give her a seat next to Giorgio.
