On plus sized maternity clothes

None of the participants wear plus size maternity clothes, at least while on video, but it's interesting that there's a war -- or at least a controversy -- on Youtube between polyglots over what is the best way to learn other languages. Steve Kaufman calls himself a linguist because he knows about ten different languages, and says you need lots of input. Bennie the Irish polyglot says you need to start talking right away, especially with native speakers. My own reaction is, gee, couldn't it be both? As Kaufman points out, before you can speak a word of another language, you must know that word, and so he attacks language learning "hacking," which is a term Benny likes. They both sell books that are probably interesting but which I haven't read yet.
