When you think about how long some of these Live Letters go on for (upwards of 4+ hours), it's probably an incredibly stressful experience and I'm sure that they'd love to have someone equivalently charismatic and knowledgeable on the subject matter stand up and talk instead. But they're eventually going to have to train up more of their team members to sit in front of a camera.

What I would like to see them eventually do is actually make use of their channels and host more frequent, more focused, and shorter segments on topics of interest, be it job design philosophy and current balance issues, housing/glamour stuff, or whatever. That way you can tune in to the stuff that you're interested in, rather than wading through a lot of fluff to get there. Even if they did it in something like an interview/Q+A format it would work, because then really only the show host has to be a good conversationalist. Even a podcast might be nice if it's a less intimidating format.
Good point to bring up about being comfortable sitting in front of the camera, I only thought about the scheduling issue that comes with getting them on the liveletter. That being said, I agree it is important to get them comfortable communicating with the community.
While I can definitely see some unfiltered vitriole being thrown when they first show up on camera, hiding behind Yoshi-P all the time and sticking their head in the ground against many valid criticisms and concerns will not help.
