AMERICANS LOVE IRISH PEOPLE.
>> EVEN THE WAY YOU SAID THAT IT
SOUNDED VERY IRISH.
>> Stephen: DID IT NOW?
>> NOT BAD WITH THE OLD IRISH
BROGUE THERE.
>> Stephen: CAN YOU TEACH ME
TO DO A REAL IRISH ACCENT?
>> I COULD TRY.
I COULD CERTAINLY TRY.
>> Stephen: I COULD TRY.
>> IT COULD BE A CHALLENGE.
>> Stephen: IT COULD BE A
CHALLENGE.
>> WE'LL GIVE IT A GP G.
BUT IT'S YOUR SHOW.
YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT.
>> Stephen: GIVE ME A WORD.
>> DON'T TRY-- STOP.
>> Stephen: WHATEVER YOU'RE
DOING NOW, STEPHEN.
>> WHATEVER THAT IS, IT'S WRONG.
SO WE'RE GOING TO DO THE RIGHT
THING.
THE FIRST THING YOU NEED TO
REMEMBER, WHEN A LOT OF PEOPLE
TRY TO DO AN IRISH ACCENT THEY
ALWAYS SORT OF GO UP HERE LIKE
THAT-- THEY KIND OF-- YES THEY
DON'T USE WORDS.
>> Stephen: NO, THEY DON'T.
>> THERE'S NO WORDS, NO COHERENT
WORDS.
>> Stephen: OR THEY GO REALLY
DEEP.
>> THAT'S THE IRISH.
>> OKAY.
>> THAT'S THE, LIKE, ANGRY IRISH
CATHOLIC.
>> Stephen: THERE'S I'M IRISH
AND I'M IRISH.
NOTHING IN BETWEEN.
>> IT DEPENDS WHAT YOU WANT TO
BE.
>> Stephen: GIVE ME A HOOK.
WHAT SHOULD I SAY?
>> I THINK YOU SHOULD BE BUBBLY.
YOU'VE GOT A SHOW.
YOU'VE GOT AN AUDIENCE.
THEY'VE ALL COME TO SEE YOU.
THEY'VE PAID GOOD MONEY.
>> Stephen: THE SHOW IS FREE.
THE SHOW IS FREE.
>> THERE'S A TELESCOPE UP THERE.
THERE'S A LOT GOING ON.
SO I FEEL LIKE YOU SHOULD BE
SORT OF-- YOU SHOULD BE BUBBLY.
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO IS KEEP YOUR
VOICE WHERE IT IS RIGHT NOW.
>> Stephen: RIGHT HERE WHERE
IT IS RIGHT NOW I THOUGHT WE
WERE STARTING.
I APOLOGIZE.
YOU'RE TOUGHER THAN DE NIRO.
>> YOU'RE GOING TO LISTEN TO
THIS FOR A SECOND.
I SUPPOSE YOU NEED TO KEEP THE
SOUNDS QUITE OPEN.
SO EVERYTHING SORT OF SOUNDS
QUITE MELODIC AND SING-SONGY.
START OFF BY SAYING, "HOW'S IS
GOING?
I'M STEPHEN?"
>> Stephen: HOW'S IT GOING,
I'M STEPHEN.
>> THAT'S NOT BAD.
>> Stephen: THAT'S NOT BAD.
>> IT WASN'T BAD.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )
IT'S NOT GREAT, BUT IT'S NOT--
( LAUGHTER )
>> Stephen: HOW DID I DO WITH
YOUR NAME?
HOW DID I DO WITH YOUR NAME?
SURSHA.
>> PERFECT, LIKE INERTIA.
>> Stephen: THAT'S NICE.
HOW OFTEN DO PEOPLE GET IT RIGHT
ON THE FIRST TRY?
>> HARD HARDLY EVER.
>> Stephen: WHAT'S THE WORST
PRONUNCIATION OF YOUR NAME YOU
EVER HEARD.
LET ME GET IT OUT HERE FIRST SO
PEOPLE CAN SEE IT.
THAT'S HOW YOUR NAME IS SPELLED.
>> DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.
IT'S A RIDICULOUS NAME.
>> Stephen: WHAT'S THE WORST
PRONUNCATION.
>> SAUER-ES-'S, SUAREZ.
>> Stephen: YOU DO LOOK A
LITTLE BIT LIKE A SUAREZ.
>> I DO.
PRETTY EXOTIC YOU.
>> Stephen: HAVE A VERY, VERY
THICK MEXICAN ACCENT.
>> AND I'VE GOT THE SKIN TONE TO
GO WITH IT.
>> Stephen: YOU CAN HELP ME
OUT WITH SOMETHING, THOUGH?
THERE ARE SO MANY IRISH NAMES
THAT ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR
PEOPLE NOT FROM IRELAND TO
PRONOUNCE.
THESE ARE REAL IRISH NAMES.
TELL ME HOW TO SAY THEM.
>> DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO
PRONOUNCE THAT IN THE AUDIENCE?
TIG.
NAEF.
BUT IT'S NEEVE.
>> Stephen: HOW ABOUT THIS
ONE.
>> O-SHEEN.
>> OSH-EEN.
HOW DO YOU THINK THAT'S
PRONOUNCED.
>> Stephen: SHOULD ONE I KNOW.
SHI-VON.
RIDICULOUS.
RIDICULOUS.
>> THEY'RE ALL RIDICULOUS.
>> Stephen: THIS IS ONE THAT
BREAKS MY BRAIN.
>> THERE'S A LOT OF "L'S" IN
THAT NAME.
QUEVA.
>> Stephen: YOU GO TO HELL.
