When you use the phrase, He's talking out of his hat, you are accusing someone of talking on a subject they know very little about. They either are talking gibberish or they speak in circles trying to impress the people around listening. It is an accusation that someone is lying. Talking out of your butt is a more frank way to put it. You can figure out the often used profane phrase on your own.
