At the risk of missing the point of this newsletter entirely, my go-to sketch for Boston Accents is the Seth Meyers tour-de-force "Boston Accent" movie trailer: https://youtu.be/rLwbzGyC6t4

When I want to recreate the Maine accent of my youth, I have to to a quick impression of my late grandparents. Either "By the Jesus..." or "Well, what do you say, Mother?"

Yeah, there’s no way I’m going to watch a Fox News documentary about the Jessie Smollet situation that doesn’t even attempt to hide its own glee. I don’t hate myself that much. I’ll admit that the trailer was edited well, but the only part that looks like it might be interesting is the interviews with the “perpetrators”.
