I found this quite by accident. Although John Dehlin put this up on Mormon Stories this past July, I think that the talk by Q70s Steven Snow dates back to 2014, because of the reference to the Book of Abraham essay having just been released in July (which it was, in July of 2014).
It's a very candid talk and mentions the concern the afossils had for the growing loss of young people. It mentions that the afossils ordered essays on 12 subjects and that once the underlings have one ready, it is submitted to the afossils and they say yea or nay. (Certainly running it by Jesus in the Temple is part of the process, right?)
It's a short talk and it ends with mention that probably 90% of the church doesn't care. Now why would that be?
