He is not an onscreen personality he is just an actual ceo lol. Nothing sketchy he acts like a real ceo who doesn’t wanna be on screen. And he has a good reputation and track record. Ppl may bemoan some of the things large corporations do for structure and consistency with “corporate culture” but it is absolutely necessary as this recent debacle proves. He is the perfect guy to instill some “corporate culture”
I think you hit the nail. Although other members also read from the teleprompter at some point (such as Linus), Terren was doing it awkwardly the whole time, you can tell he’s not used to be in front of a camera.
He doesn’t enunciate or articulate when speaking, which makes it hard to understand him clearly when he’s on camera. I think it should be easier in person, but as a non-english speaker it was pretty hard to understand him at times, as he muddies his words. I guess that could perhaps make it easier to think he’s a bit sketchy. I got the feeling he tries to do right though, but I’m no expert.
CEOs are by necessity sketchy people in general. What’s good for the business isn’t necessarily what’s good for the employee and in the cut-throat world of capitalism if the business is going to grow you need to do what’s good for the business. Sketchy people have less of a problem putting the needs of the company over the needs of the employee. You don’t get to be a CEO by making ethical choices.
Yeah, if Madisons allegations are true, and I believe they are, then some heads are going to roll. Heads that Linus may have been reticent to see go but Terren is not. Terren doesn’t give a shit about Colton, or nick, or any of the others. The only one of the old crew that are probably safe is Luke, and only because he wasn’t there. We may be seeing a major shift in personnel in the next few weeks, with many people quietly resigning to “explore other ventures”.
In the apology video you can 100% tell he was reading from a script. I think he is still getting used to the cameras and stuff. While the others you couldn’t tell they were reading a script. Give him some time to relax a bit to the cameras and it’ll be as fluid as james strieb. I mean look how he just knocks it out like nothing.
They all looked like they were reading a script… And for a video like this, they most likely wanted to be sure what message was passed, I think it’s ok
All of them were, that was my impression. Understandable, but that always gives a fake vibe, because everyone could have read that out loud. It’s very unpersonal. I would have preferred an open speech.
That’s what american corporate training teaches you. Blinking is associated with deception and lies so they teach you not to. Smiling instill trust and friendliness. I wouldn’t hold it against him and he clearly doesn’t want to be in front of the camera either.
unrelated but something seems sketchy about him, just the vibe I get from him, probably wrong lol

And that is ok, that shouldn’t be what he does. He should do CEO stuff.
Yep, that sould have been done by a PR person.
Probably just the vibe that a non-actor gives off when making scripted YT content

I didn’t watch the whole thing, but I remember at least two people very obviously reading from a script
They all looked like they were reading a script… And for a video like this, they most likely wanted to be sure what message was passed, I think it’s ok
All of them were, that was my impression. Understandable, but that always gives a fake vibe, because everyone could have read that out loud. It’s very unpersonal. I would have preferred an open speech.
They all were, every LTT video is scripted. It was a mea culpa video, it’s going to be SUPER DUPER ULTRA scripted.
Super obviously.
Doesn’t mean anything of course.
Could be that they needed to read a Linus-approved script.
Or that they just have stage fright.
That’s probably the reason yeah
It’s because he doesn’t blink. At all. I can’t be sure if the man even has eyelids.
That’s what american corporate training teaches you. Blinking is associated with deception and lies so they teach you not to. Smiling instill trust and friendliness. I wouldn’t hold it against him and he clearly doesn’t want to be in front of the camera either.
I feel the same
