I'm somewhat surprised he didn't mention Dr Lustig and his experience and research when it comes to the negative effects of sugar consumption. If you have no idea what I'm talking about : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM

Lustig isn't well-regarded by everyone. Also think it's dumb to have him be the only person to interview on the subject.

Hahah I love you Jon Oliver. Started chuckling at the first joke about home improvement stores, laughed when I heard Offerman's voice and started rolling around when Jon Benjamin showed up. Superb.
