Same thing happened when I listened to people speaking Sicilian here in France. Very hard to understand.

I went on a porcini hunting and eating frenzy in Sicily last year. I had real difficulty in understanding this dialect. When in full flight conversation I don,t think a modern Italian native could understand it. However it interests me that all on TV and radio is in "Italian", but they can only speak dialect
Even when they made an effort to speak slowly for my benefit, I really had to concentrate and journalise between words.
Maybe it was the area I was in (Sanagra) that was more isolated and older generation. I imagine it would be different in the towns
