Taubes has degrees in aerospace engineering and journalism. Not to say that formal education is the marker for expertise, but it's at least a contributing factor.

I'd hardly call him a "health expert" just because he wrote a controversial book about nutrition.

I believe the commenter was referring to Ben Greenfield as the health and fitness expert. The podcast is a conversation between him and Taubes.
