Would anyone listen to an OG based podcast-TheOGBudCast

To really embody this character you’ll need to do your best flat middle American accent, ideally Indiana based, but a general “US evening news” vibe would work too…kidding, but it would also be hilarious.

Edit: …or am I kidding? Not even I can tell…

So literally just speak the way I speak to myself on a daily :joy: can do.

I’m fully getting into the idea of this character. Goes and watches some Indiana news clips :eyes::joy:

Yup, that’s the stuff!

Another good starting point would be listening to Chapelle when he steps into the generic midwestern white character - it’s all in the dipthongs.

You must, above all, become 100% convinced that it is not an accent at all, but just the way English is SUPPOSED to sound like - then, and only then, will you understand this great nation across the pond.

Still kidding, I think…

IME the babbling comes from the south.

You could also do some seeds/lights giveaways and such …?! Maybe some Sponsor will donate them too .?!

It would/could massively increase your subscribers ( maybe.?!.).

Worth a thought in future episodes.

Happy growing mate.

Gaz.

As a north-easterner I take offense at the implication that our babbling skills are sub-standard, but (threading a needle here…) also don’t want to take any credit from my southern friends for their estimable capacity in this domain.

This sounds perfect but wtf is a dipthong? I watch a lot of swamp people so I’ve kinda got Louisiana bayoux kinda accent down :joy::upside_down_face:

You mean like most Americans assume that’s exactly how English should sound. Ahh got it :joy:

Ive barely got the english down as my first languages accent. But this sounds like fun. Even the mrs is excited to see this now ffs :joy:

Same in england. The variations within like a 5 mile radius here is crazy.

This is where I live btw. And this is by far the best cinematic I have ever seen. I must approach tobias for tips.

I’ve asked if any sponsors want features doing on their products. Seed giveaways is a definite and theres a few bits of merch being made. Just for filming purposes at the moment but some will be given away bro.

Enjoying the other chatter here too :joy::joy::joy:

Like in the word “about”, the “o” and the “u” work together to make the “ou” sound that kind of slides from one to the other. The Canucks don’t use a dipthong in this case, and it sounds more like “aboot”.

That’s too bad, I’ll miss they way they used to migrate like 2000+ miles.

Edit: From now on we’ll just have to enjoy the Viceroys.

I find the concept of a monarchy to be incredibly outdated. The idea of ruling due to bloodline is some dark ages stuff.
