Actor and DJ Meesh Samman on Being a Polyglot and His Viral Appearance on the Late Late Show With James Corden

Life in a Second Language with Spring Day

Spring Day, an American comedian brushing up on her Japanese skills, interviews people from all walks of life about their experience living, working, traveling, studying and loving in a second language—often in adult language so this podcast may not always be appropriate for young ears.

This episode features jack-of-all-trades Mish'al "Meesh" Samman. He details his experience growing up speaking Arabic and English at home, learning French, Italian, Japanese, Chinese and Indonesian. We talk about the best motivations for learning a language and the unexpected opportunities speaking so many languages brings.

We also talk about his appearance on the Late Late Show with James Corden in 2019. Meesh explains why he thinks that clip of himself on the show went viral in Saudi Arabia.
