At 5:37 there's an oddity

Question

Even with the "live unwrap" enabled I still need to have my mesh selected for the UV map to show up, it makes the lesson slightly incoherent to follow.

I think you need to enable the sync button in the UV/Image editor. It will keep your UV's visible at all times and whatever elements you select in the 3D view will also be selected on your UV's. Here's a gif of me setting up live unwrap including the sync button:
