How Do You Pronounce Pecan? | Accent Challenge With Phil Joel

Have you ever heard of a capsicum? Yeah, me either.

It is so fascinating to me that every nation, state, and even down to cities has its own language. As a Southerner, I grew up hearing phrases like “fixin’ to” and “bless your heart.” I was even made fun of in college for saying “supper” instead of dinner.

Phil Joel, musician and former Newsboys member, is originally from New Zealand. New Zealanders also known as “Kiwis” have tons of fun phrases and jargon.

Wait until you see how these cultures collide as Phil Joel and Betty Rock take on the accent challenge. The results are quite hilarious. You can check out the three-part series below.
