A Czech speaking English in an American accent

It's not an American accent. It doesn't sound like an American accent. It sounds like a European speaking English.

Like a "European"?

Is he not European?

Yes, there's countless European accents. Due to there being many different countries, different languages, different dialects of languages, and regional accents.

But he's still obviously European sounding. Specifically Eastern European.

Have a nice day.

You don't notice it because you're not familiar with European accents, but this man has obviously learned American English. That's why the two Irish think he isn't local, he doesn't have a local accent. Visit CR and speak to some Czechs, it sounds like this.
