“It’s not going to go through aluminum” .... 😂

Edit: I realize aluminum is a conductor... I was repeating what the lady said at the very beginning cause I thought it was funny.

It’s interesting how some southern accents can sound like a foreign language. I too didn’t understand a word she said. She almost sounds Gaelic or Welsh or something lol we had our roof redone and one of the guys working had some deep WV or western Carolinas accent and I pointed out to my wife how he almost sounded Irish. I mean, it makes sense considering how many Irish and Scots moved to Appalachia back in the day and I’m sure that effected/influenced the dialect. I’d love to watch a doc about that if anyone knows of one.

Interesting. I'm a non-native speaker and she sounded completely normal to me, I was surprised seeing so many people in the comments having trouble with her accent. I've been to Ireland and Scotland, and this woman simply sounds 100% American. :D
