I'm glad that, as someone not "in the community", you find this valuable and useful. I have to be careful of my own bias: I like Hank Green and he plays to me and my generation. As a result, I watch this and I gain a lot from it, and gain interesting perspective on my own actions (regarding the "debt to your former self"). Others, however, may see a quick-speaking, know-it-all whom they have no connection with and see no value in the video at all. Bias is hard. Edit: In regards to #4, i think many of the reasons that the flailing etc work are because of the situation - the size of the stage, the informal aspect, the crowd. You wouldn't even get away with most of this stuff in a TED talk (maybe TEDx, but most of those are bad).
