Answer 1

The correct answer is ad nauseum.

The complete excerpt would read: “Let me give you some advice,” she said. “Don’t get stuck in a conversation with John about history. He talks ad nauseum. He’ll go on and one without stopping. You will be stuck there for an hour.”

"Ad nauseum" means to a point of nausea, implying that he talks excessively or to the point of being tiresome.
