The video shows a man named Rich Roll, host of the podcast “The Rich Roll Podcast,” giving tips on what characteristics to look for in people. He advises viewers to judge people based on their character rather than on their intelligence or charm. He describes a weak character as someone who cannot handle criticism and who is always defensive; he says that such a person may say anything to get away with things, and they are surrounded by a sort of shell. He contrasts this with a strong character, describing this as someone who takes responsibility when things go wrong, deals well with criticism, is able to work with others and handle stressful situations. The man concludes that these are people you can rely on and lean on when you need them.
