I have problems with Mason's politics, so I've never been a fan, but the accent is delicious. Practically anything is funnier in a Jewish (Yiddish?) accent. I wish I could do accents; I'd talk to myself in that one just for the joy of it. On my one visit to Paris many years ago, I went with some friends to the Jewish quarter and was astonished to hear the residents speaking French with the very same accent and characteristic intonation.
