As an Irish person, can confirm, Seán still sounds Irish and is still the pride of Ireland on the internet. 🇮🇪👍

Sean's "not a cannibal" talk is giving Mark's "totally not a masochist" vibes

What the hell is Seán talking about? He DOES clearly have an Irish accent. You can hear it on almost all his words. Yeah, it’s a little bit fainter compared to someone who’s lived in Ireland their entire life, but it’s still clearly there. You’re too hard on yourself, Seán!! Much love to ya🫶🇮🇪

When Ethan tried to say "boys" in an Irish accent at 07:12 he pronounced the Swedish word for 'poop' perfectly, and I almost fell off my chair laughing

knew an irishman who "lost his irish" as he put it, he said to me "soon as you stop living in ireland, thats when the irisih in you goes out the window and then your just a guy with a funny accent"

The irony that Sean thought we hated his Irish gladiator blood, but really, it's why we're all still here 💚🤍🧡

Asking an Irish person to sing a rebel song is like asking an American to rap. Not all of us do, or should, or can.

being northern irish and having english friends has completely banjaxed (there u go, theres some slang) my accent and I feel the same way. I've never appreciated ireland enough and I want to feel that same pride but, imposter syndrome! we do still love sean and we are proud of him 👏

Seán's talk about not feeling 'irish enough' was really relatable and weirdly it makes me feel better to hear that other people wrestle with the same thoughts about nationality and identity as I do. As someone who's 50/50 Italian and White Australian, I feel like I'm not really representative enough of either culture, especially because I grew up with the internet which was heavily influenced by North America. I think what has helped me be comfortable calling myself both is the fact that it's not a competition. Like, of course there's gonna be some caricature of a person out there somewhere who's an absolute legend and is undoubtedly of their culture, but like, you're not competing. If anything, sharing a nationality with someone is something to bond over. In the end, though, if you're celebrating the fact that you're Irish, that in itself makes you more Irish.

Careful guys we got a time traveler in chat

Feeling bad and guilty sounds very Irish/ Catholic to me

Being irish isnt nessacarily in our voice...its in our hearts and in our blood💚🇮🇪🍀

Ethan forgot one weird thing he ate: that massive bug.

Leakin on a Tuesday?????! 😮

Hearing them talk about “Alone again” was so funny knowing that it was in Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE MATPAT EPISODE

Seriously... This is the only thing in youtube where I don't skip the ads... I just find them so funny that I don't want to. Even tho i couldn't care less about the thing they are advertising

My family came to America from Limerick, Ireland. When I went to meet distant relatives, they accepted me like a cousin. The Irish are some of the kindest people, they said even if you move away you’re always welcome back. Erin go bragh!

I did that “ *whistle* woah woah woah hey” Leo dicaprio meme when I saw the guitar Capo in Ethan’s hand, didn’t know he played

It's ok Sean, my first language was spanish, and can now do just basic talk, enough to talk to costumers barley 😅

Hey Seàn, you look like an 80's hacker in an action movie with Bruce Willis 🤘🏻

I found out through 23&me that I'm like 80% Irish. I had no idea and I've never been to Ireland! I didnt have a chance to get my Irish, let alone use it. All I know is "sure feck it, it'll be grand", because my grandad said it all the time 😂

I had a professor in college who was half-Irish (his mother was Irish, father American). He grew up in the states but went to study in Ireland for university and lived there for several years. Even after being back in the US for years teaching, he still had an Irish accent. And I can confirm, Jack's accent is still stronger than my professor's.

As an Irish person, I _would_ pat you on the back Seán, but I've been living in France for 20 years... so I'm not sure I'm the best example of a proud Gaelic 😆

Aww it was nice hearing you mention Felix. I really miss seeing you guys together ❤️

Ethan starting the video with skrittle 2 electric boogaloo was a vibe

Ah sure jeasus sean, it'll be grand 😂 on a real note ive lived in dublin my whole life and i have a pretty mild accent so dont feel bad. I'll assure you that we still accept you as one of our own (especially since you were on the late late show 😂)

The intro is a certified skriddle moment 👌

Ah stop Sean. You're a grand lad. The snakes represent Pagans. He missed a few... lol

1:02:51 my nan used to sing that song to me , i never even knew it was irish lol

A sponsorship 2 minutes into the episode?? That must be a new record

51:05 i started singing that right before he did lol I was frightened, same wave length

Trivia tidbit: There is an ethically and legal way to obtain human flesh for eating in some countries - - in the form of placenta after delivery of a newborn. (True story)

cmon to fuck seán, your accent is as strong as ever you’ve no fear in you. you’re an irishman through and through

Any time I think about st Patrick’s day it makes me think of the clip from Game Changers where Brennan is doing the ghosts of st Patrick’s day past and he starts screaming “HE DROVE THE “SNAAAKES” OUT OF THE COUNTRY! THEY WERE MURDERING PAGANS!”

Sean: I don't want to be a cannibal. Also Sean: My love language is cannibalism.

26:48 The Snakes of ireland which used the Ouroboros as their symbol [The druids of Ireland], the snakes were a metaphor for paganism, which he, in fact, did drive out of Ireland, especially the Druids, through conversion to Christianity. [At no time has there ever been any suggestion of snakes in Ireland, so [there was] nothing for St. Patrick to banish.] If you dont belive me do a little googling/reasrch and make you own mind up. -An enthusiastic ominist pagan

I wonder how Ethan's search history would be in just one day 😂😂

Wow Zune got mentioned in 10 minute power hour and the brain leak podcast within 2 days. That's the most popular it's ever been

it’s so funny watching the Hank Green video about ads being super early on podcasts due to the the new changes on what makes a impression.

Lmao, I had just grabbed a can of Liquid Death and opened it as the spon began.

24:50 my guess is that it was held strictly as a catholic festival type deal, since the saint days are of cstholic origin, and st augustine, besides also having been named after another saint, was a spanish colony, so quite catholic at the time

As an Irishman, Seán is doing well for himself. Getting on well and moving up in the world. Also, I think I might be far out related to Ethan. Nestor isn't a very common surname

st augustine resident here!! st augustine is the oldest town in america and it definitely has at least a little bit of irish influence, we have quite a handful of irish pubs in and outside of the main town, it’s a beautiful place too!!

Not Irish, but living in Ireland. My irish friends love you, Sean!

Yupp Séan. Shoulder to shoulder, you represent us all well. Gowan ya boya

It sounds like Sean is in an empty room, i can hear the void

The ad break cracked me tf up I forgot too that he wouldn’t have a social security number

31:31 - Sean, this just reminds me of this book “Tender is the Flesh”. You should read it

The Folklore questions remind me of the animation team that makes movies to preserve the irish mythology and culture, I've seen "song of the sea" and it's such a good watch

as an irish person (monaghan) Seán still definitley sounds irish in my opinion and even if he doesnt it doesnt matter because your still irish :] literally every young irish person i know loves your content!

Seán is Irish enough for my 83 year old nan from Boyle, country Roscommon, who asks me to put jacksepticeye videos on whenever I'm watching youtube around her because his accent reminds her of home and so that she can make sure I don't lose my Irish-ness from watching British and American people. (She is deaf as a post bless her so I'm not sure she can make out what he's actually saying apart from his accent).

I was wondering why we're leaking on a tuesday but it is in fact wednesday for me already so we are actually right on schedule

they are one of the only ppl that i sit and watch the in video ads lol the way they say it is just entertaining lol

Ah we love ye Seany boy. Sure, gowan ye mad yoke! fair play to ye 💚

i just listened to "alone again (naturally), and this singer is super depressed for such an upbeat tune.

Best day of the week Brain Leak Day 💚🍀

The Leak is strong with this one

Best time of my week ❤

48:29 • I ACTUALLY KNOW DIS SONG !!!!!?? ITS VERY EPIC

Sèan and Ethan youre a unreal gas pair of lads good men yourselves. Great craic the both of ye (the most irish compliment)

“Scottish is British” Painful, yet very much true. Britain is not just England laddies! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Aww I love Sean's accent. To me you will always be a true Irishmen. Stay Happy.

As an irish person from Dublin (also saw you at that grumps tour lmao), you still sound irish and i think you're a grand fella!! (Big irish head on ya)

Not irish but can confirm that he still sounds Irish because I have an irish accent because of him (I'm a non native english speaker so I partially learned English through Sèan)

When Ethan started singing, he sounded like Jeff Dunham’s Achmed 🤣

Dont worry Seán, I'm also Irish and know almost nothing of Irish history or language! You've been a greater inspiration as to what's currently achievable in this day and age than any other Irish person I know ❤️ If you're ever in Limerick, I'll hook you up with a pint and good vibes 🤘

Jack looks fabulous today🐢

Fails St Paddy's Day Quiz 👀.... Irish status & luck be leaking out of Jack, gotta study next time around. It'll be interesting to hear what chaotic questions will be asked while having a break. Danke for sharing. Hope everyone is doing well, & had a fun yet safe Paddy's Day. Stay Leaky Bros 🧠 😎 👊

I have a friend who I knew from high school who in between grades picked up a complete Australian accent from just playing video games with Australian people. It was VERY disorienting, but cool at the same time 😂

Happy Wednesday stay leaky 💚☘️

Maybe being from north Ireland incites a few more rebel songs because my husband and I both instantly started singing wolfe tones 😂 iykyk

Take me down to the Leaky Boi city!

17:03 "People don't like me as an Irish person" What about as a person, though? As a non-native English speaker, I like that Seán sounds pretty much American (to my non-expert ears), because that makes it easier to understand him (but I'm always amused whenever he "gets Irish", because it's endearing).

Seán ya bollocks shur don't we still have a Grá for ya, not too bad for a Cloghan man hehehehe

Respectfully, Sean I was born a decade after you and I definitely know Alone Again (Naturally) it's in a lot of movies... give it another listen 😂

I sang that lullaby to my girl every night, like my own mum did. It takes me back, and reminds me of how old I am, as my girl is the same age as Ethan!

We welcome you as a Langer down here on cark

Yknow, I heard that Mark thinks space is just so cool

i mean i’ve imposter syndrome just from moving from cork to dublin and my accent changing, seán your accent is still there completely i think we just mute it a bit so people understand us better, you still sound like a right ol irish lad idk how anyone would be thinking any different so don’t be worrying none!

i am so glad the start didn't get cut lmao

15:30 this is interesting because my boy friend is Hawaiian and he is visiting family right now. the first phone call he was immediately talking about how his accent is back and he is constantly talking in pigeon. hes been sending me lots of photos with a mini stuffed shark because i couldnt go. wishing i couldve gone too but hes gonna be home soon and we get to talk about everything and i cant wait :3

56:04 That was the exact same tempo and inflection of that weird noise Ethan made in the bed of nails Unus Annus video.

my vegetarian heart was GAGGING 29:11

C'mon Seán.."Ireland, Ireland! Together standing tall. Shoulder to shoulder, we'll answer Ireland's call." NGL Seáns accent is getting stronger throughout this episode 🇨🇮🍀🥔🚢 PADDY NOT PATTY! BAYTINS 😠🤚 Seán, sure fecking jeesus we still love ya lad! Look I'm American but learned Irish speaking from your old videos now whenever I'm either drunk or pissed off my Irish comes out. Plus learned last year that 3/4 of my great-grandparents are Irish. 32:33-32:37 TBT that helped quiet my parents snoring..Thanks! NGL..I listen to that exact lullaby on my phone before bed. The name is Sleepsong by Secret Garden featuring Fionnuala Gill

Wallethub 😂

sean dont be sweating the disconnect from your heritage! you’re grand❤ we’re all well proud of you and you represent us well! sound lad, love ye to bits 🫶🫶 you and ethan should go to an adult gaeltacht course for a video thatd be great craic😭

Hi Jack and Ethan! I just took conservation biology in the fall- it would take around 5,000-10,000 individuals for large mammals genes to stay good. If they get below a certain threshold it turns into an Extinction vortex (the numbers are so low they just die off faster).

As a fellow Irishman, tá grá againn duit fós 🫡❤️

Not Irish, but I am a Scott. Is dòcha nach eil mòran taingealachd ri fhaighinn às an seo, ach tha Na H-Albannaich a ' cur luach air ar bràithrean Èireannach

fun fact: astronauts planning to go to mars is not a life-time thing! for the purposes of their research and project plans, it might be, but the trip is only 6 months long for the shortest path (which occurs every two years), meaning you'd have to stay on mars for 2 years at a time. companies, such as space x and nasa, are working on building rockets so that they can land on their own so that they can send rockets full of supplies to mars before they send their pilots (the recent launches are tests of this). you would not starve, but you would not have taco bell, that's for sure.

My grandad always used to put water in his whiskey, i always thought he was just tight so watered it down to last longer, maybe he was onto something 😂

Let's go leak!!

omg my country being discussed in my fave podcast?? Northern Ireland yeeooo

My great grandad came from Ireland, his wife I think from Scotland? And I’m an American citizen, I still fully believe you are always going to be Irish. 🖤

33:53Wilbur soot 😶

Awesome job Ethan and jack with the podcast drop a like.

ah sure hes a sound lad all around

Some Irish Gaelic that green owl taught me: Is Leaker mé

Seán is my favorite Irish lad!
