Flat vowels, but clipped and short.

Hard, highly stressed consonants especially S’s ("kiSSS my aSSS")

Not Cali, not Mid West or Great Lakes, obviously not Southern

What is that accent??

Show takes place in New Mexico. White people don't have a unifying accent out west. Mexicans, OTOH, all sound exactly the same.

There is a Cali accent though. This is not that. Maybe it’s his own peculiar diction?

Have you ever heard diction like that (flat and hard, almost German) anywhere regionally in the United States? Or is it just him?

I just looked, seems that a lot of Mormons and Germans first settled Idaho. Is that an Idaho accent? (I’ve never been)
