The producer should tell the talent: 'the host will greet you, then straight to the first question. Don't waste time with greetings or thank you, this is not a social meeting, it is a stage performance. The producer should also remind any newbie that the questions are for the audience, so you might think we know the answers, but the audience won't. Keep that in mind. You are playing to the audience, not the interviewer.
The basic tool he’s teaching is to have a 10-second, agreeable spiel that generally outlines context. So say you’re getting interviewed about a new product you’re selling at your shop, and the interviewer asks why someone should buy it. Direct answers (“you need it”, “I want to make money”) will rub people the wrong way. So give context first: “At my shop, we sell a lot of paper towels. We’re very proud to be adding this new type of paper towel to our line up to offer customers more choices in their shopping.” And then you get into the actual answer. For a politician who made a controversial vote, it might be “I have served my constituents for x amount of time, and in that time I’ve met those who supported me, and those that did not. I find it equally as important that I make both of their voices heard, in as many matters as I can.” No matter what hard question is asked, the “preamble” technique will work for any of them. You may want to prepare multiple, or figure out how to rephrase the same one in many ways if you’re going into a tough interview. That was my takeaway, at least.

Thanks for this tip. It also buys you time to think about your actual reply, l guess
Correct. You can still say something worthwhile and intelligent, while formulating the rest of your honest answer.

Wow, I'm glad that chemical plant wasn't built!
How come I didn't understand one thing he said? Too scientific
