I was busy washing my socks, so my wife took the call. She told me she could only understand that he asked for me, but she could not make out anything else he said.
My wife spent some time in the South when she was younger and usually has no problem understanding thick accents, but she said she had no idea what he was saying.
I'm not poking fun at his accent, but only saying that it was exceptionally thick and that makes it difficult for those up here in the Pacific Northwest (where we speak perfect English, of course) to understand.
