Wonka & Funny Sounding Words

Welp, we watched the musical Wonka movie. And one of us loved it and one of us did not. Which of us is which may not surprise you. It's a "funny" movie with some funny words, so we thought we'd talk about what makes some words funny. We look at the discourse and research into what makes a word funny. And we list lots of examples of words that various people have pointed out as being funny words. We also talk about Roald Dahl, a man who made a career out of making up funny sounding words. In Eurovision, we discuss Spain's 2024 offering, "Zorra" by Nebulossa.
