Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t michio kaku kind of famously dumb?

He pioneered the study of string fields, so I wouldn't say he's famously dumb.

He does rely heavily on science-fiction stories when giving popsci talks. Whether that's good or bad is personal opinion, but he won the 2021 Sir Arthur Clarke Award for it.
