An unofficial podcast about the Wonka-verse from two people who didn't think they cared about Willy Wonka until they learned a prequel was being made and it rocked their world.

112 - Crowning Wonka's Worst Lyric
Look we might like Wonka (2023), but that doesn't mean we don't have critiques! And if you're talking about the lyrics specifically, we apparently have more than an hours worth. Join us as we discuss the songs from Wonka divorced from the source, rank them all, and have a heated debate on Wonka's -ocolate based crimes.

Customer Reviews
genuinely my favorite podcast
This podcast has taken over my life. over the past two months i have listened to all the episodes that are out. wonka has taken over my life. thank you for this gem of a podcast
My favorite podcast
I’m not being hyperbolic when I say this is my all time favorite podcast. I found it randomly on tiktok one day and immediately became OBSESSED. It’s so fun and weirdly specifically niche and I will mourn the day it comes to an end. New life’s goal is to be a guest on this podcast.
i’m stuck in the wonka well and I can’t get out
it actually makes me Angry how funny this podcast is. I hate that it makes me cackle and lose my mind and now I can’t be in normal society without resisting the urge to impart my newfound wonka lore knowledge and hot takes onto unsuspecting victims. just like paddington 2 this podcast is perfection
