I just can’t get past the way he talks. He tries to hard to sound like a mix between country and gangster. It bothers me.


I don't think he's trying to sound like that. He grew up poor on the Northshore. I think his accent was genuinely formed from his youth setting.

I may need to go back but I don't remember him sounding like that when he was on the Real World.

Either way, it bothers me and I can't get past it.

Hes funny on his podcasts. But his stories from growing up are unbelievable. Like I dont believe any of it. Covington is rural and im sure the poorer areas have some backwards shite going on. But he paints it as a place so far removed from society that insane redneck shite is constantly happening.
