Actually or totally?

I am working on some experimental listening materials with Sheila Thorn of ‘The Listening Business’. We have just had a very interesting disagreement about a recording, involving Randy from Montana USA.

Is he saying [1] or [2] below? You will hear both the original and a slowed down version.

[1] And he was like ‘Oh I actually didn’t mean to’.

[2] And he was like ‘Oh I totally didn’t mean to’.

Use the player below to hear Randy.
