There is some kind of cooking show on the tube in the background.

The woman doing the cooking has a very heavy Hispanic accent and I just had a thought.

Is that the way she sounds off of the set or is the accent for credibility that she's cooking a genuine Mexican dish?

Maybe when she's off set she sounds like a Joisey Goil. "Da conneh a toidy toid street an toid avenoo."

Who knows. Whatever, it's pretty decent background sound.
