But while researching I found out that he also holds an honorary doctorate (the kind famous people just get for fun and giggles) so the host might have referred to that.

The host of the show said that Brian actually had his PhD. Maybe he successfully defended his thesis since the New Scientist article was written?

It was actually more important now than back then. So he just has ALL the luck! I assume he did need to catch up on 30-odd years of literature research, but he seemed to have been doing some reading in his spare time anyway.
