Search this site for "glottalization." There are a lot of discussions about it; I'm not sure which one is most relevant.

I can guess
(as I don't have an example of the actual speech)
there's a case of double partial assimilation in the combination of [tw].
[t] sounds labialized because of the sonorant [w], and [w] sounds a little voiceless because of the voiceless [t].
