If you can, put yourself on the left of the screen. You're the host, and you're the one asking questions. You also look to your left so it makes sense if your guest appears where you're looking.
Add chapters/sections or whatever they're called in the YouTube video?
Introduce your guest at the start? Who they are and why you wanted to get then on the show.
Finish by thanking them for their time, maybe giving a few of your big takeaways, etc, and then ask them to tell listeners how folks can find them.
When someone says something maybe don't reply with "Understood".
Come up with some variations you can use. Some to get them to expand, and some to allow you to change subject and ask a succinct question.
"Nice! I think that will help people trying to decide whether to go to college or not. Changing gears/I'm curious/I see you have a podcast... Do you think personal branding is essential?"
"That's interesting. What did you mean by Y?"
Or even that simple technique of picking out one key word/phrase from what they said and asking that.
"1,000 hours?"
Good for you starting fast out of the gates. Maybe publish one long video per week? (Start how you mean to continue... for a decade?)
Just me braindumping at the airport.
