It pisses me off because he's highly educated and should know better. But he frequently ignores all scientific evidence and instead promotes quackery by bringing idiots and crackpots onto his show.

He had some moron on the show do an amalgam filling demo to prove the levels of mercury in fillings were toxic or something, despite the plethora of readily available, peer reviewed scientific studies on the matter demonstrating otherwise.

(if you're wondering at all, it would take upwards of 120 amalgam filled surfaces, which would be equivalent to every tooth in your mouth being comprised entirely of amalgam, to get the same mercury exposure in an entire week as eating a tuna fish sandwich).
