Listening Practice 🎧 What do you listen to for Japanese practice?

So, I like watching street food and cooking videos. Not cooking shows, but just footage of the kitchen as ordinary working people make food in their restaurant, food truck/stand and so on.

Today I found something of a listening challenge! This old man speaks a nearly incomprehensible Japanese dialect.

I can’t tell which dialect this is, though I do recognize one of the speech-patterns from a seiyuu I’ve heard talking in normal conversation (the “ずらあーっと” expression). That was Wataru Hatano, who is from Nagano. But this restaurant is located in Osaka. Not sure if that’s the dialect here (since people do move from one place to another). Also, maybe there are dialects with similarities. :thinking: I’d love if anyone could identify this guy’s dialect. :slight_smile:

I’d also love if someone could help me figure out what he’s saying! :sweat_smile:

Sidenote: I created a "Dialects and slang category" so people can add listening practice resources in the wiki in the OP post. :)
