Do you have any qualms regarding him or his work?

I have qualms with his history of racist, ableist, and misogynist comments, like saying that people should abort fetuses with Down's syndrome and that some forms of rape are "worse" than others.
I too have those same qualms about him, also about Shermer, Nye, at least when it comes to anti-feminism if not out-and-out misogyny. (Haven't heard anything bad about Neil deGrasse Tyson or Adam Savage yet and hope never to...)For a breath of fresh atheist air, check out the works of Greta Christina, espec. her Why Are You Atheists so Angry? 99 Things that Piss Off the Godless.
