Well whether you like it or not, you ARE a celebrity with an extraordinary life story.
Host is a very different beast, literally Frieren from Sousou no Frieren who does things on insane timescales without changing significantly. He's easily recognizable from childhood photos and says from himself he hasn't really changed from kindergarten. Same looks, same interests, same friends 40 years later. Ultra-consistency over decades.
He was always generally well-liked because gentle, smart, funny, super reliable and not exactly ugly either. Quite popular with girls as 'good friend' = useful idiot but not beyond that. Well it was mutual, because he was only interested in one girl for his entire childhood and youth - who hated him. Ah well, just host things as medieval scholar / knight who always lived by his own rules on his own timescale in his own world. It was very imagistic. But not exactly productive for a human with a human lifespan. He's so - goddamn slow.
I feel I've managed to keep his worst antics in check though there is still a lot to do. But his core personality is actually super awesome. He would have made an excellent priest or medicine man in ancient times.
