This week, Nadia and Steve talk to actor and writer Haley Mancini (@thehaleyexperience) about the specific topic of learning about the history of languages and linguistics (you know, as a hobby!). Who are the "Scottish" accents of Spanish speakers? Why is learning Arabic so hard? What's the connection between Hindi and Norwegian? Is there such a thing as a DUMB cartoon owl, and is that owl the one from Duolingo? Let's do this again some time!
