reeled off
Recited without pause
To reel off is to recite or produce something rapidly and effortlessly, as if unwinding from a spool: She reeled off the names of every state capital.
The phrase suggests impressive fluency or memorization—facts, statistics, accomplishments delivered in quick succession without pause or hesitation.
