Props to Eduardo - he has to deal with Sona's peaks, Gourley's nerd whispers, and Conan's chaos.

Matt is 100% right about Irish vs Gaelic, at least colloquially - ask someone from Ireland what language they learned in grade school and then forgot and they will tell you it was "Irish"

[geekimusprime]

2:14 Sona’s juvenile retorts are the best 😂

[adamplace]

While editing, I think Matt did a quick check on Wikipedia before leaving the "Irish/Gaelic" part in, muttering "I'm NOT a fool" to himself.

Sona please never stop being the loudest person with the loudest laugh

[zoperxplex]

Conan knows what buttons to push to get Sona laughing uncontrollably.

Conan! Irish Gaelic has an amazing sound. It has a profound affect on Hiberno English and is the main reason for a lot of the unique grammar as well. PS, Gaelic was a unified language of Ireland, Scotland, and the Isle of Man until the Middle Ages- the literature of all three was mutually intelligible and functionally the same language. They've evolved separately since and also have dialects within themselves now. Some English speakers use "Gaelic" to refer to Irish or to Scottish Gaelic speakers and is like saying someone speaks "Iberian, " not specifying if someone were speaking Portuguese, or Galician, or Castilian Spanish, or Catalan, etc.
Some consider it offensive but largely it's just...outdated. As Ireland worked to preserve their language from English language oppression, they prefer to simply call it Irish, while Scottish people call their language "Scottish Gaelic, " to differentiate it from Scots, or Scoats, which is the relative of English spoken in Scotland that has more Norse, Norman, and historic Gaelic influence in it.
I'm an Irish American who learnt some Irish and can tell you it's an amazing experience to connect. It's chaotic, it's wild, it's kind of the natural language of an Irish mind 😂. It's easy to encapsulate humor in it.

Kudos to Sona for showing her kids Totoro! It was the first movie my eldest was able to watch from start to finish without ever taking his eyes from the tv, at like 2 years old I believe. Anything Studio Ghibli is brilliant really, with increasing age requirements ^^

[stelliocantos]

I think the day Sona is quiet is the day we ask if something's wrong. I'd be concerned. Stay loud, Sona.

[benschneider]

I’m so glad they put this clip on YouTube. I was dying listening to the “I hAve a ReAL pErfORmanCe eNergY” bit

[counterfeitsaint]

Little does Sona realize, her kids are watching My Neighbor Totoro in the original Japanese and not learning English at all from it.

[carlbrewerii]

Sona is the heart and soul of this podcast

[flybymight]

The co-ordination on the shirts, very satisfying.

[ThatsOnYoutube]

Sona is showing her kids some REALLY good movies.

[Gehlidoos]

I hate that instead of working or studying... here I am hooked on these segments lol. Conan is the best

[krylesangerbeaver]

I love that Conan basically yelled his way through the Sponsored part

[oldenaturalist]

My Neighbour Totoro is the best. Well done Sona!

[jspres]

I feel like Eduardo is the secret fourth character in this game 😅

[RippleAnt]

Sonas' movie choices are the same movies I'm showing my 4 year old. She thought Iron Giant was too fast to understand, though she was excited about the robot part. Yet to show her ratatouille, putting it on my list now.

[WittyScoop]

These glasses really suits Conan - makes him look like a Harvard Graduate 🤓
