No, one gained notoriety by making incredible food. Incidentally, he was also an abusive asshole boss, but that was not how he made his fame. Eventually Gordon was so famous for his skills that people would volunteer to be abused by him on TV just to stand near his light.

The other is just a liar, blowhard, asshole. Alex Jones has never done anything else of note besides the aforementioned.
