Working in Other Markets with a New England Accent

it's always humorous to hear the callers to local stations and how heavy their Mass accents are. I've consciously tried to lose my accent a bit over the years but will occasionally faltah.

hope you don't try too hard SonicAl. it's boring when everyone sounds the same.
 
It's a bear being from New England and trying to work in any other area. Especially when you try to do a commercial for Honder Motor Cahs or encounter Cape Card in a news story.

Takes years of work to overcome.

Imagine the terror a young person from Bar Harbor, Maine might face in the outside world! In fairness, I haven't been there in about 40-years so the accent that bordered on being a dialect may have softened.
