Is it getting hot in here? Or did I just shove a handful of warming candies in my mouth and now I’m burning alive? Bust out your spectacles and find a cozy chair because we’re gathering the book club for two deleted chapters from the original Charlie and the Chocolate Factory manuscript. Enjoy more dangerous candies and a new level of evil from our favorite chocolatier, Roald Wonka!
To keep up-to-date on all things Wonka, be sure to follow us on TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter @wonkawatch.
We'd love to hear your concerns (it'd be unhealthy if you didn't have any). Email us at wonkarapture@gmail.com
If you'd like to support this podcast, you can buy us a chocolate bar at www.buymeacoffee.com/wonkawatch This helps us gather more Wonka materials/media and helps keep this podcast going. Thank you!
