He's pretty good. I liked the Through-hole.
maybe he'd do one for us on soldering a diode?

Well, the thru-hole pre-tinning tutorial can help somewhat. I'm not sure if having flux get on the diode would be good though.

I just hold the diode in my hand and dip the pins.

Works everytime:)

OR

Get some a blob on the wire and rub it on the pins.

I'd always wanted to see someone properly soldering on a diode. Not that I can't do it, but I'm having quite a hard time ...
