Bill Nye, who acts like a scientist and wears a lab coat only has a bachelors degree in mechanical engineering. What he did and does is schtick for a local TV show. And while I’m at it. Dr. Phil is not a doctor, he’s a family law attorney. And the Monkees songs were written by Carole King and Neil Diamond. And the cake is a lie!

Ha. What about the Partridge Family?
I was with you until the "cake" comment. What is that about?
Also, the Monkees comment is on a different level. They weren't out to deceive people in a potentially hurtful way.
Dang! I haven't played Portal in years. I'm gonna fire it up again.
re: “Dr. Phil is not a doctor, he’s a family law attorney.”
Well, he does hold a doctorate in psychology, but, he is not a (currently) licensed psychologist.
per wiki: McGraw is shown to have “voluntarily surrendered” his Texas license in 2006, and he has never held a license to practice psychology in any other state, including California, since.
He was brought up on ethics charges for having an inappropriate non-physical relationship with a patient in Texas in January 1989 and had a formal criminal complaint filed against him in California in 2008 for practicing psychology without a professional license or certification and violating doctor-patient confidentiality in connection with the now infamous incident with Britney Spears in 2008 (see below).
Also per wiki: Phil McGraw graduated in 1975 from Midwestern State University with a B.A. in psychology. He went on to earn an M.A. in experimental psychology in 1976, and a Ph.D. degree in clinical psychology in 1979 at the University of North Texas, where his dissertation was titled “Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Psychological Intervention”.
