French do roll their Rs though. Maybe it's a regional accent

I was just wondering if I was the only one who thought Covington had an Australian Accent.

It's more of a "gggghh" sound if that makes sense. Not a rolled "r" sound. For instance: Ferrandis would be like "fehgggghandeese"

Weird. How does he pronounce his town's name? Blest?

That was pretty funny when Holley said that to Ferrandis. Ferrandis has a new fan here.

Tortelli is French , not Italian. Funny how a few commenters ripping on Holley are incorrect themselves..
