Never really understood it and see it mentioned often

Well, this would be pretty subjective.
After all, some might say things as concrete as medicine are a type of pseudoscience in that they rely on the subjective gathering of data that is then processed in objective ways.
But that’s just an extreme definition of science in which it’s held to the standard of the Scientific Method. That we separate the objective from the subjective. That in order for something to be objective it has to be verifiable by any. It has to provide the ability to be falsified. It has to make predictions. It must be testable.
Most *sciences* today, fail to live up to those standards.
Even going as far and deep into the worlds of Acadamia as theoretical physics.
After all, most of the work that comes from that field will always remain outside the realm of testing. It will always remain unfalsifiable.
Is it pseudoscience?
That depends on *your* definition.
