📚talk through your hat


✍🏾Meaning
If you're talking through your hat, you're talking about something without knowing much about it, or you claim something is true when it isn't.

❗️For example

🔸Evan says that quantum physics proves that space and time don't really exist, but Kathy says he's talking through his hat.

🔸I proved that George was talking through his hat by checking on the internet to find out if what he said is true - and it isn't.
