As someone who's lived in the northwest their entire life, I was having a good chuckle and then he got to Seattle and Portland and my immediate reaction was just "oh he's talking normally now." Lunacy.
-
"i was born in miami, but i still have this accent”.
-
"Wisconsin's more Chicago than Chicago." I was dying at that part. Go Fred!
-
“You mentioned two pumpkins “ 😂
-
I love how he randomly chooses little phrases to exemplify some accents, but they’re not entirely random.
-
“That’s my business, not yours.” - Everyone in Connecticut at least once a day. Accurate can confirm
-
That was great picking up on all of the nuances of the American accents. I've always thought that the best comics are real students of humans.

This is such a good "accents 101" approach. I remember learning in acting school that two of the most important tenants of doing accents is finding where the sound lives in your mouth and in your body, and finding a phrase or two that gets you to that place. Fred's doing both of these really rapidly, which is cool!

"I am from Seattle, these are the words." Killed me
-
I lived in Houston for 6 years. I didn't realize there was a Houston specific accent and then he did it and my ears just had this primal reaction. Like I was listening to a family member

NJ can be sliced into 8 subsections depending on proximity to NY or Philly and the long belt of pine barrens through south/central where some folks have a blue collar style drawl, and they either live in a single-wide out in the sticks or in a 7 bedroom Victorian on 6 acres of wealthy rural land, there is no in-between
-
Honestly, as an improv performer, I’m just impressed that he was able to change his accent so quickly
-
"Wisconsin's more Chicago than Chicago" 😂

No one has an accent until they leave where they're from.
-
Bro the fact you know the difference between Cuban and Mexican dialects makes me happy
-
It's not just crazy how many accents he has, but how effortlessly he can switch between them. I can only do a couple of accents, but switching between them feels almost impossible without taking some time to like, neurologically "flush" the previous accent. Not sure if that makes sense. This man really is a once a generation talent lol.

If there wasn’t a live audience this could be given as a lecture in a linguistics class
-
As a Brit I found that truly educational
-
Somehow for me this qualifies as ASMR. There is something soothing about hearing him do this.
-
Not only is he entertaining, but he’s also giving a masterclass lol
