I have given up on watching or reading anything that Neil produces. I find him more of a "true believer" than a rational scientist. He may be quite an intelligent man, but I find his arrogance so bad that, even if he has some good ideas, I just discard what he says as rubbish. I put him in the same basket as "alien lizard people are here" believers.
His pop-stardom has lead him down the wrong path and he now appears as silly as the Kardashians.
