Martin Hall certainly does a good job of translating good fundamentals to analogies, metaphores and drills that everybody can relate to. This is a double edged sword. We who are familiar with TGM see the TGM and the debth behind his messages, but those who don't know TGM doesn't. It may be the best way to reach a large audience but a lot of the substance is lost in translation.

It will be interesting to see whether Martin aims higher as the series progresses or he stays at "wipe the milk off the table" level throughout. I hope he has the guts and gets the green light for raising the bar gradually throughout the show. Going from "wipe the milk" to hinge action and finish swivel would really be something. If he does, those who watch every show will learn a lot.

I haven't seen Yoda try to reach down to a translation that fits TGC. But I am convinced that he has the ability when the situation calls for it.
