Is "talk hill" some kind of weird French expression that doesn't translate well in to English?

Old English hyll "hill," from Proto-Germanic *hulni- (source also of Middle Dutch hille, Low German hull "hill," Old Norse hallr "stone," Gothic hallus "rock," Old Norse holmr "islet in a bay," Old English holm "rising land, island"), from PIE root *kel- (2) "to be prominent; hill." Formerly including mountains.
He means 'to speak prominently' about cats, obviously.
Or maybe it's a typo and he meant 'speak ill.' Pretty clear it's the first one though.

I'm pretty sure he was just impersonating a german cat lover speaking english with a german accent

Could be autocorrect. I also have a problem with homophobes or even words that sound remotely alike in my brain so that could be that also.
Point is cats are rad.
