It's a special Valentine's Day ep featuring rising YouTuber Mark Bogard aka Language Come Up who joins the pod to talk about many facets of the language learning life. Mark tells of his inspiration to learn Spanish and move to Mexico City and his current quest learning Russian. The guys discuss the focus-dabble spectrum, cultural incentives to get into languages, childhood language experience and shared polyglot heroes. Mark also highlights his 40 hour 7 day language challenge (#40h7dlc) and how participating in it forces your brain to function in a new language!
