Minute 0:46 "Me, Boz and JVR been cold right now." I would say 'are cold right now' or 'have been cold,' but that's an odd use of the perpetual 'be' in a way I'm not used to.

Like, I would not think anything of someone saying 'he been cold,' but that use of 'been' with a time delineation is odd to me. 'Been' in my usage (or 'be') is a state of perpetualness, not something temporary. Like, "They been cold" would be a way of dismissively saying that they've been cold for a while now, not that they are currently and temporarily cold.

Minute 1:10 or so 'shows your group ain't get it done.' I would probably say 'group ain't getting it done.'

I think this is an East Coast vs. Midwest approach to verbs, or possibly the fact that my experience with nonstandard English is clearly a very different dialect than standard US English, so maybe what's weird to me is normal to everyone else?

His usage or my my usage? (Or both?)

His. I have never used been like that, or ain't at all. And I grew up in a town of 18k in the middle of nowhere, so we had a lot of farmers and local dialect quirks.

Huh, interesting. No idea why he has those constructions, but they always struck me as a bit odd.

Originally from northwestern Wisconsin (closer to the Twin Cities than Madison or Milwaukee) and neither of those sound like home to me either.

"Ain't get it done," sounds like home to me which is odd. I wouldn't even blink at "been cold right now."

I'm also from Texas and I find those very odd constructions.
