Episode notes

"It's a book about kids being mean and adults being mean. And one of the adults is a guy, I guess, that we have to be fine with," he says. "I don't like him. He enslaved the Ublupas." The author adds: "My brain now is like the societal conditions that created pretty bad reality suck"

We're talking about candy for the second week in a row, but this time the candy is literal, and the building is a factory and not a house. Willy Wonka is a mad candy scientist who flouts labor regulations and inflicts misery on children he deems insufficiently deserving. It's a fantabulous, scrumdiddlyumptious romp!

Our theme music was composed by Nick Lerangis.
