Eh, it's more about the enthusiasm than the qualifications. Plus, while Bill Nye is no angel, at least he's not a Putin supporter.
Is there some controversy around Bill Nye that I haven't heard?
He has been a leading science communicator covering hundreds of topics for many decades, and is only human, of course there are going to be shortcomings.
He has a reputation of just being an unpleasant dick and difficult to work with. Nothing super problematic to my knowledge, just a bad personality.
Pretty much this. Met him once. He's has no scandals, he's just kind of a rude guy.
I had a friend tell a story once about how he was on a field trip and the class found out Bill Nye was in the building. But once Bill found out kids were on the way he escaped out a window to avoid them. I'm not sure how true that is, but its kinda funny.
