Yep, he not only contradicts himself many times but cherry picks extensively. Very frustrating to listen to.

On the other hand, I didn't think that Dr Hart was an adequate advocate for the extensive evidence regarding the medical benefits of cannabis. He kept referring back to CBD which is not that controversial in the medical debate.
