Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) is from KC and people from Kansas speak in a Midwest accent. I don’t get it. I grew up in STL and lived in KC for 3 years. We don’t have southern accents. I’m I missing something?

The Midwest is a big place made up of a dozen states. People from Minnesota sound different than people from Illinois. There are several distinct accents and the Kansas accent is one of them. I would expect an Ohioan and a Kansan to sound different, so if living in one state in the Midwest is your only frame of reference then I can understand why you think they all sound like that. I am also from the Midwest and I can tell you that if you drive for a few hours in any direction the people start to sound different, and there are different accents in cities than there are in rural areas
