I'm from the mountains of North Carolina. I don't have any accent :biggrin2:
So... You'uns in the mountains don't have accents... Well us people of the Piedmont have a sweet not quite Georgian drawl... But we don't know it until we are on TV after the tornado tears up a mobile home park... "I seen it coming" is a very popular response...

....East Central Ohio Redneck.....but my 40 years in radio have washed out the accent unless I'm three sheets to the wind.....
Nice there big guy... I announce basketball and baseball games over the PA at local HS (Have even done a couple of games on the streaming broadcasts of both when regular "color commentators couldn't make it)… Everyone says I don't sound like myself... Tell them it's because I enunciate when behind a mike... That and I am trying to use my deep sexy voice...

Kids in class would asked me if I'm English. I talk like I've got an English accent, slightly cockney, but was born in Australia. Where I grew up in Sydney I think they talked slightly working class type also I used to watch English television shows as a kid.

I'm not sure why I initially thought you were male - perhaps the name - Wolf (plus your avatar didn't have that thing about a She-Wolf previously - :culpability:

Sorry!
