great video dude, we are on the same journey i just switched to tenor for roughly 1 month, and still focus on practicing on the low notes on tenor good luck
The low notes on tenor are tricky. I was practicing them last night and it's a balancing act of breath force and embouchure. However they are very satisfying when played correctly, which for me is probley about 50% of the time.
Hey man, great playing. Squeaking on the high G is quite common, even i do it sometimes after 6 years of playing 😅. That G is when the octave mechanism switches from the neck to the side which causes it to be a bit awkward. I find that singing or tightening your embochure helps prevent sqeaking. Good luck on your journey!

Thanks for explaining why the high G can be troublesome. I'll keep practicing it and hopefully the squeak frequency decreases over time.
