I hadn't noticed the "like" thing. You are undoubtedly one of the most well spoken people I have ever heard on RUclips. Don't worry about it. Like, if you notice you have slipped, just tousle the hair a couple of times and move on.
Expanding one's vocabulary is a great step in your story telling. We all fall into habits,, just recognizing a habit is the first step in correction. Keep up the great work.
I reallly love the way you speak. It is so energetic and you speaking so natural and straight foreward ist one of the main reasons why I looove watching your videos :D
I am proud you are addressing your bad habits, which is something I need to do myself. You speak well for someone who has completed his first year of college, and far better than many who post on YT and in person. When my mom was alive, she was a University English professor and my English grammar is not perfect, even being raised by her. Be proud of your acknowledgement of speaking mistakes and continue making videos. You post amazing stories brother. Thank you.
I’ve only seen a few of your videos but I think you are very well spoken. It’s one reason I’ve kept watching is because you speak well and are a good storyteller. With that being said, it’s always good to be improving on yourself. Just don’t be too hard on yourself.
You're hilarious, Tate. Another awesome TDR today. Talk like you want to, improve what you want to, and we'll be here regardless. Not counting the times you used the word to tell us what you planned to do to address it, I stopped counting at 7 the number of times you said it elsewhere. It's all cool . . . just one of those amazing filler words. We'll see you tomorrow. So close to 2K. Like, wow!!!!! :)
You said "like" a ton of times in this video. But I'll cut you slack this time since "like" was a huge part of the topic of this video. LOL. You did great on not saying um very much, though. Keep up the great work!
Public speaking (which a vlog certainly counts as even if the audience isn't live) is a very tough skill to master. But you are noticing things you want to change (I agree with the several posters who never really noticed it until you brought it up) and changing them. Congratulations on all the work you are putting into improving yourself in so many ways!
The funny part is that you explain that you don’t want to say “like” yet in the explanation, you say the word like a lot! 😂 I was laughing the whole time, wanting to count how many times you say like in this video! I hope you do conquer your bad habits. ❤❤
Well said sir Tate! However on a side note inquiring minds want to know what’s the story with objects on top of your bookshelf? One looks like a pink scout rocket and the other not a clue. And while you’re at it I’m still waiting on backstory of RAT. =]
heh...I'm an adult and had to go through presentation training so I could stop using filler words while presenting to clients. I see it at work all the time. So no worries. It's tough. Slowing down is a good way to help it, though. Pausing is another. Look at the audience, pause and reset your brain.
Mr. Grammar here 😁(not really), but an important step in in stopping saying like is when to use it properly. Like is only supposed to be used when with nouns and pronouns (eg : "You look like your father") and is often incorrectly used instead of "as" which should be used as a conjunction when joining clauses (eg. : "You work as an ice delivery person") The most famous misuse of like was in the advertising slogan used by Winston cigarettes which was "Winston tastes like a cigarette should" and correctly should have been "Winston tastes as a cigarette should".
Just keep your language clean, without cursing, and normal "young people's words," using GOD after OM_, and other things. You are doing exactly what you should--direct, straightforward and genuine. Keep it up, Tate.
I am a newer sub and i have not noticed the overuse of 'Like' , nor do i notice your use of 'um'. Newer sub as in maybe 2 weeks i have been watching. I do watch TDR , so i guess your 'bad habits' are not scaring me away or thinking any less of you. So my advice is keep doing what you're doing. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. First of all you are 'Live' evoking your statements/opinions or whatever. I would only say, which i think you do already cos i see you with a pen or sharpie in your hand...just have a piece of paper/your phone next to you that has all the points you want to discuss or get across. You're doing fine man, don't stress over it. I am my own worst critic and i think you are your own worst critic as well. Don't beat yourself up over it. Period!
TBH - I don't mind your "likes" or "ups" cause your videos are unscripted and in the. moment. I say it - as in it doesn't affect my view or enjoyment of your content. This being said by someone who works in media and knows that "umps, etc" are often edited out. With your content, it helps it feel athletic. If you like to try without it - so be it. Just don't let your "pre-thought" in NOT trying to say it - interfere with your natural voice
It’s very easy to criticize yourself once you have some public content. Obviously self improvement is a great idea, but honestly I never noticed how often you say like. It’s easy to fixate on flaws of yours that your audience may not even notice. So self-improvement=good but definitely don’t be too hard on yourself
No issues here with um’s and like’s :-) However, while you’re improving things, it’s not a bad habit, but it would improve your videos, and help with engagement, and with making them more personal and relatable, if maybe you could look at the camera, instead of the screen, to increase eye contact with your audience :-) I love your videos, and not telling you what to do, as they’re yours, but just a suggestion :-)
In my opinion saying "like" in your speech is not near as bad as a lot of these people here on RUclips who constantly say "and yeah" and "yeah" in each sentence that they speak! That is very annoying to me lol!😄👍
Firstly, your sideburns are giving me baby Wolverine vibes.... but secondly and more importantly, what's the significance of the word "Rat" on your wall?
Dear Tate the only bad had Habib I noticed all the time is your hair ‘ thing’ you are fixing your hair a lot . Do your hair a little different so that you can leave it alone while speaking to us 👍👀
Hasn’t crossed my mind once and I assure you I wouldn’t have a problem telling you if it has. Be authentic or your videos have no value. If you aren’t liked for who you are then so be it. ;)
you have a lot of high class problems-- that resolve in time thru living ur way into better thinking-b 19 not 37- remember r president mumbles & trips on his own feet
Nobody’s perfect. I thank you for not cursing. THAT is more refreshing than anything. Much respect to you sir.
I concur. 🐧🍎🍏💙
i am with you all...keep it simple & clean!
I hadn't noticed the "like" thing. You are undoubtedly one of the most well spoken people I have ever heard on RUclips. Don't worry about it. Like, if you notice you have slipped, just tousle the hair a couple of times and move on.
Just speak from the heart. Everything will fall into place buddy!
Tate you’re an excellent speaker and commentator and you have great enthusiasm -keep up the good work !!
BE YOURSELF! You worry too much. Your natural way of talking to us is perfect.
Expanding one's vocabulary is a great step in your story telling. We all fall into habits,, just recognizing a habit is the first step in correction. Keep up the great work.
I reallly love the way you speak. It is so energetic and you speaking so natural and straight foreward ist one of the main reasons why I looove watching your videos :D
We still love your vids Tate!
That’s a pretty common thing. Even Tucker Carlson does it. Everyone does. “I be like..”. 😂
I am proud you are addressing your bad habits, which is something I need to do myself. You speak well for someone who has completed his first year of college, and far better than many who post on YT and in person.

@@df29208 Very true. Don't be too hard on yourself either.
I actually never noticed this. Will have to start a drink game, every time Tate says like.
yes, lets turn it into a drinking game. take a shot every 'like' or 'um'....Tequila!
If he gets better at it and you want more drinks, try taking one every time he runs his hand through his hair. 🤣
You have really done extremely well improving your speech patterns! Bravo!,
I’ve only seen a few of your videos but I think you are very well spoken. It’s one reason I’ve kept watching is because you speak well and are a good storyteller. With that being said, it’s always good to be improving on yourself. Just don’t be too hard on yourself.

I never realized you said the world like, and it did not bothered me when you said it. Glad you are doing well.
as I understand its called valley talk, came from a movie a number of years ago, and it just caught on all over the planet
Add, "get a humidifier" to your list. It will stop your nose bleeds.
You said "like" a ton of times in this video. But I'll cut you slack this time since "like" was a huge part of the topic of this video. LOL. You did great on not saying um very much, though. Keep up the great work!

Good for you! I wish you success in losing "like" as it is so prevalent these days.
The funny part is that you explain that you don’t want to say “like” yet in the explanation, you say the word like a lot! 😂 I was laughing the whole time, wanting to count how many times you say like in this video! I hope you do conquer your bad habits. ❤❤
"Like" is a Simile...meaning similar or analogous to something else. 🐧🍎🍏💙
Well said sir Tate! However on a side note inquiring minds want to know what’s the story with objects on top of your bookshelf? One looks like a pink scout rocket and the other not a clue. And while you’re at it I’m still waiting on backstory of RAT. =]
Bravo, I considered commenting on this. Now I don't have too. It's a pleasure listening to you.
I think you're like really awesome for like trying to break your habit. So like I hit the like button.
heh...I'm an adult and had to go through presentation training so I could stop using filler words while presenting to clients. I see it at work all the time. So no worries. It's tough. Slowing down is a good way to help it, though. Pausing is another. Look at the audience, pause and reset your brain.
Breakthrough but everyone does it so go easy on yourself

I was wondering how long it would be before you tried to address the umm and likes 😊
Don’t feel bad. I umm and like a lot as well
You're fantastic, Tate. 1:20 "I never thought that I would use the word 'like' to fill-like-the gaps in..." Awesome! :)
Just keep your language clean, without cursing, and normal "young people's words," using GOD after OM_, and other things.
You are doing exactly what you should--direct, straightforward and genuine. Keep it up, Tate.

You're doing fine man, don't stress over it. I am my own worst critic and i think you are your own worst critic as well. Don't beat yourself up over it. Period!
Freaking legend
Transcript count of the word “like” = 30 😊
i liked this video
Hey guys. How about you like hit the like button. I never noticed Tate. I think you well spoken.
I never noticed all the likes.
One other "nervous twitch" is constantly playing with your hair but that is easily corrected.
Tate, it's cool I've had one friend who would say the f word every other sentence ! No longer a friend ! You will work it out ! No worries !😉
TBH - I don't mind your "likes" or "ups" cause your videos are unscripted and in the. moment. I say it - as in it doesn't affect my view or enjoyment of your content.

Just don't let your "pre-thought" in NOT trying to say it - interfere with your natural voice
hahaha - and YES to your boss you are saying "like" a 1,0000 times. But your bosses brain and our own are great at filtering it out
It’s very easy to criticize yourself once you have some public content. Obviously self improvement is a great idea, but honestly I never noticed how often you say like. It’s easy to fixate on flaws of yours that your audience may not even notice. So self-improvement=good but definitely don’t be too hard on yourself
F*** the things and just talk how you prefer to talk..don't worry about it. It's not really that important to criticize youself.
You are fine dude. I don't come here for an English / speaking lesson. Chill.
Like like like like uhm like like like, you're fine!
No issues here with um’s and like’s :-) However, while you’re improving things, it’s not a bad habit, but it would improve your videos, and help with engagement, and with making them more personal and relatable, if maybe you could look at the camera, instead of the screen, to increase eye contact with your audience :-) I love your videos, and not telling you what to do, as they’re yours, but just a suggestion :-)
I wonder if Siri or Alexa could give you a hand with that. Hear you say like or um and ring the wrong-answer buzzer. There must be an app for that...
I heard only 3 unintended 'likes' in this video.
So there were 5 more unintentional likes in this video if you’re keeping count and just one uh. But its all delightfully charming.
In my opinion saying "like" in your speech is not near as bad as a lot of these people here on RUclips who constantly say "and yeah" and "yeah" in each sentence that they speak! That is very annoying to me lol!😄👍
Firstly, your sideburns are giving me baby Wolverine vibes.... but secondly and more importantly, what's the significance of the word "Rat" on your wall?
I’ve wondered about RAT as well haha
😁👍👍👋👋
I've never noticed this but the one thing I have noticed is that you are constantly running your hands thru your hair ... possibly a nervous habit? 😉
All fine with "um", but maybe "like" can go away. Again, more today's story theme than a question - right?
Speak effectively? Just speak, that's good enough. It's way better than silence.
How about including some of your activities in your videos ie you at the gym
Well, you are very likeable so if your are subconsciously asking us to give you likes, that's no problem. 🤣
Dear Tate the only bad had Habib I noticed all the time is your hair ‘ thing’ you are fixing your hair a lot . Do your hair a little different so that you can leave it alone while speaking to us 👍👀
Hasn’t crossed my mind once and I assure you I wouldn’t have a problem telling you if it has. Be authentic or your videos have no value. If you aren’t liked for who you are then so be it. ;)
you have a lot of high class problems-- that resolve in time thru living ur way into better thinking-b 19 not 37- remember r president mumbles & trips on his own feet
You're doing fine. 😍 How is your kitty doing ? Much better I hope. 🩷
