Okay so I'm sure many people have seen this happen before and it tends to happen apparently intentionally, in more of a way to seem comical, but here is the example for what I am talking about:
"You don't want to over-season the fish at all now…" –covers the
entire bowl with seasoning– "Alright now we'll season the other side.
Just remember to not season it too much now…" –pretty much uses an
entire bottle of seasoning–
So the first word I thought for this would be a "hypocrite", but I don't think it would accurately describe the situation here. To me, a hypocrite is more of this:
"Stop smacking while eating dude that's annoying." –smacks loudly
while eating–
Sorry if this doesn't make any sense, but I was just wondering if there was another word (preferably a noun) that more accurately describes the first example.

A common idiom that describes the scenario described by the OP would be:
practise what you preach
e.g. That TV cook's advice is contradictory, he doesn't practise what he preaches
