Yeah, it again is a pity as usual that we don't live closer to each other, as we'd have the camera operator thing, among others, solved. I think that can be worked around to a degree by the host himself moving around a bit and placing the camera at different locations so each time the host "drops in" in the video it looks a bit different. I can't be sure, but I think that's what he did there. It's just a matter of thinking a bit outside the box, I suppose, even if it breaks some of the "rules".
The 15 second rule I think is just for interviews, not for host segments. Hosts tend to be on for much longer, but I agree that they should be in brief spurts. I think as far back as Carl Sagan in Cosmos blathering on in an engaging manner at length, though of course for a lot of time he had someone with a camera following him around, so even though it was just him talking, he was doing things with his hands and what-not at the same time.
