This is mind blowing...shatters my misconception of blackholes....is there any more books on this?

The most updated book I read was The Science of Interstellar by Kip Thorne

Black holes and time warps by Kip Thorne. Great book and great guy.

It was interesting to watch, but the presenter presents everything as truth, but aren’t many of his explanations still theories? I’d like to see what other competing theories there are..

I think most of what he said is just an interpretation of what the math of classical black-holes says (basically the Schwartzschild equation). This math is uncontroversial and there is no better theory of a black hole, at least at this level of detail.

If I understand correctly competing theories disagree on more complicated descriptions, those that ask different questions or want to describe more details.
