    Part of that is, out side of a few regions of the Midwest that have a really unique accent.

    Most of the Midwest is “nutural English”. Yes there’s an accent, but there is a huge lack of slang, regional quirks, and is widely one of the most understandable accents across every English speaking country.

    It’s the “universal English accent” in a sense. It’s a large reason why call centers became so popular there. That and low costs.

    Functionally Midwestern accent is in a way the English that’s so boring that the banality of it IS the accent. Lol it’s kinda funny.
