Chapter 2: How does Andrew Scott feel about the over-academization of Shakespeare?
Do you guys ever see our videos come up when you're, you know? Oh, yeah. You see the videos come up of us doing the podcast. And I see, too, when they put out the photo of me with the guests. I'll be with Billie Eilish. I'll be with, you know, whoever the guest is. Mm-hmm. but I think Billie Eilish came to mind because I was looking at the photograph and my hair is insane.
And I realized that for years and years and years, I would do a show and I'd run a comb through my hair and kind of make sure the coif was working. And I don't do that at all with the podcast. And sometimes it's insanity. We have a wall out there of pictures of me with different guests and my hair is all over the map. It really is. It really, I mean- It's mood hair. It's just insanity.
And I don't know. I got self-conscious. I think the other day some maybe it was the Billie Eilish photograph popped up on my screen. I don't know what's going on up there.
Chapter 3: What challenges did Andrew face while adapting 'Vanya' into a one-man show?
I look like Shemp from the Three Stooges. Yeah. If he were a ginger. And then I started to think. You know, do I need to do something about this? Do I need to get it under control? Or is this just what it is now, man? It's you. It's podcast, man.
I have to make sure my hair looks decent every time we do this. No, you don't.
Conan! No, no. What I'm saying, Sona, I wasn't saying your hair looks bad. It's just I don't think you have any control over what's happening on top of your head.
I certainly do, sir.
What do you mean?
I put so much product in my hair and I have to make sure that it's like kind of normal.
So I'm seeing your hair after it's been treated and cared for. I'm just, and I'm saying this, Sonia, you know that this is also a compliment because your hair is powerful.

Chapter 4: What unique approach does Andrew Scott take in portraying characters?
It is the source of your strength.
I have the most iconic hair on this podcast.
That's saying something. Yeah, that's... I'm kidding. But I mean, you have abundant, luxurious, powerful hair.
It is.
But what do you do to it?
Okay, so I get out of the shower.
To make it so angry and crazy. Do you taunt it?
I start off, I put in argan oil to moisturize.
Is it argan oil? What is that?

Chapter 5: What surprising technique does Conan use to enter a trance?
O-N is the gas.
What is argan oil? It's like Moroccan oil. It's like really nice oil and it moisturizes. You can use it on your skin. And then after that, I put in like seven other products. Like I put in a leave-in conditioner. I put in a styling cream. I put in some gel. And then I twirl it. Then I blow dry it.
And then... Then you use a defibrillator.
Yeah.
Clear! Bang! Clear! Bang!
I do so much stuff. Hostage negotiator comes in. Yeah, but it's been dry lately because I ran out of Argonaut.

Chapter 6: How does Andrew Scott describe his experience filming 'Pressure'?
What would it be like if you didn't use all that? Huh? What would it be like if you didn't use all that? Oh, it's horrific.
Okay. So this stuff is expensive?
It is expensive, yeah. It's because it's imported. It's expensive.
So you have to get it from Morocco. That's the best way to do it. Have you been to Morocco to shop for argan oil?
I have not, but I would love to go, and I would go just to shop for argan oil.
I think if they knew, if the people in Morocco knew you were coming to get more of their oil, I think they would try to keep you from showing up. Oh! Because it's just a massive drain on their oil supply.
Oh!
I just picture huge reservoirs of argon oil being poured over your head just to tame your hair for two hours.
Well, maybe it'll help your hair, too.

Chapter 7: What insights does Andrew have about the importance of playfulness in acting?
I think, yes.
Oh, and then slick it and part it down the middle and put on glasses and go, bleh.
It's a new look.
I'm a bibliophile.
Yeah, I would love to go to Morocco to just buy some more argan oil.
Yeah, okay. Not going to happen. Oh, okay. Not on my dime, that's for sure. Hopefully. Do you direct order it from Morocco?
No, but you can only get it because I guess they're just trees that only grow in Morocco. And then they cultivate the oil.
They're cutting down trees in Morocco to tame your hair. No, they're cutting down forests to tame her hair.
Forest?

Chapter 8: How does Andrew Scott view the relationship between storytelling and Irish culture?
There were monkeys going from tree to tree. And then Sona was born. Oh, man. We need these trees.
You thought I'd been using it since I was born? Like I was an infant putting on argan oil?
I think you were born with all that hair. I really do. I don't think you were a bald baby.
I wasn't.
No, I didn't think so.
I actually was not a bald baby.
I didn't think so. Your hair was born maybe two months before you came out. Your mom was braiding it. Well, she'll be here soon. Yeah, that's right. That's the image I want all of you to have. That's how you're actually born, with a handle.
Yeah.
When it was time. They jerked me out. A ripcord, yeah. And swoop. Wah, wah, wah. So anyway, that's insanity. So it's dry now because you're no argon oil. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
