Hey there, Fellow Watchers! This week on Born to Watch, we dive deep into one of the most whimsical, enchanting, and downright bizarre films of the 1970s, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. This technicolour dreamscape of a movie, adapted from Roald Dahl's beloved 1964 children's novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, is a kaleidoscopic journey that weaves together childlike wonder, satirical wit, and a dash of dark humour. But for those who've seen it, it's much more than just a kids' movie—it's a cinematic experience that has left a lasting impact on pop culture, filmmaking, and how we imagine the wildest corners of our childhood fantasies.Directed by Mel Stuart and released in 1971, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory gave the world an enduring yet enigmatic character brought to life by the genius of Gene Wilder. Wilder's portrayal of Willy Wonka, with his trademark purple velvet coat, manic energy, and mysterious charm, is iconic. But the film isn't just about a quirky candy maker—it's about dreams, consequences, and the weird journey from innocence to maturity. Today, we're cracking open that golden ticket and exploring the layers of storytelling, visual splendour, and character depth that make this film a must-watch for every generation.The Dreamlike Cinematography: A Visual FeastFrom the first frame, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory draws us into a world between the fantastical and the surreal. The film's cinematography, spearheaded by Arthur Ibbetson, feels deliberately disjointed from reality. The factory is where anything is possible—giant gummy bears, rivers of chocolate, and wallpaper you can lick. Using vibrant colours, practical effects, and innovative set design turns the film into a visual explosion still captivating more than 50 years later.One of the most stunning sequences comes early when the lucky ticket winners first step into Wonka's factory and are greeted by the Chocolate Room. The juxtaposition of the drab, muted tones of the outside world with the bursting, hyper-saturated colours inside the factory immediately transports us to a place where the ordinary laws of reality no longer apply. Every detail in this scene—from the candy trees to the chocolate river—feels like it was ripped straight from the wildest corners of a child's imagination. Yet, it's executed with a precision that keeps it from feeling cartoonish.And who could forget the unsettling tunnel scene? What starts as a gentle boat ride turns into a psychedelic nightmare. The flashing colours, dizzying camera angles, and unsettling imagery—coupled with Wilder's chilling recitation—make even the bravest viewers squirm. It's a perfect example of how the film balances whimsy with moments of genuine unease. This technique makes Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory much more layered than your children's film.Gene Wilder's Wonka: A Performance for the AgesWhen it comes to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, it's impossible to talk about the movie without spending time on Gene Wilder's portrayal of Willy Wonka. Wilder brings an incredible depth to the character, making him charming yet aloof, kind yet mischievous, and ultimately unpredictable. His entrance alone, stumbling through his factory gates with a cane only to somersault forward and rise with a grin, tells you everything you need to know: this man thrives on deception, mystery, and the thrill of keeping everyone guessing.Wilder's Wonka is not the traditionally heroic figure you might expect from a film aimed at children. There's something slightly off about him. He watches as the children fall victim to their vices—gluttony, greed, or pride—and while he expresses concern, there's always a twinkle in his eye. He's a trickster, just as likely to reward you as he is to teach you a hard lesson. And Wilder walks this tightrope perfectly, making Wonka endlessly watchable and infinitely complex.The film never shies away from showing us the darker side of Wonka's character. There's a controlled chaos to him, an edge that suggests he's more dangerous than he seems. Whether it's how he dismisses Augustus Gloop's drowning in the chocolate river or his cryptic “Good day, sir!” outburst toward Charlie, Wonka keeps the audience on edge. This unpredictability is what makes him such a memorable figure in cinema history.The Story: A Morality Play in Candy-Coated WrappingAt its core, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is a morality tale. Each of the children who wins a golden ticket represents a different vice—gluttony, greed, pride, and sloth. As they progress through the factory, they're confronted with temptations that ultimately lead to their downfall. Augustus Gloop's gluttony gets him sucked into the chocolate river, Veruca Salt's greed leads her down the garbage chute, and so on. Each "punishment" is delivered in a way that's both comical and, at times, chilling.What makes the film unique is how it balances this moralism with its fantastical elements. The consequences are clear, yet they're wrapped in a layer of surreal, candy-coated absurdity. The film isn't heavy-handed with its messaging, but it's impossible to miss the fact that each child's fate is a direct result of their own behaviour.Charlie Bucket, our humble hero, is the film's moral compass. Raised in poverty but rich in spirit, Charlie's simple goodness and humility starkly contrast to the other children's greed and entitlement. In the end, it's his genuine heart and good nature that earn him the ultimate prize—the entire factory. But even here, the film doesn't indulge in a sentimental ending. The lesson isn't that good behaviour always leads to material rewards but that integrity, humility, and kindness matter most, even in a world that can often seem unfair.Cultural Impact and LegacyThough Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory wasn't an immediate box-office hit, it found a second life through television reruns and home video, becoming a beloved classic for generations. Its impact on pop culture is undeniable—whether it's the Oompa Loompa songs, the countless memes, or Gene Wilder's iconic portrayal of Wonka. The film is often referenced in everything from cartoons to music videos, and its place in cinema history as one of the great fantasy films is well-earned.It's also fascinating to note how the film's themes of greed, entitlement, and the dangers of unchecked consumption still resonate today. The factory, with its promise of endless indulgence, reflects our own desires, reminding us that too much of a good thing can often lead to our downfall.In the end, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is a film that transcends its whimsical surface to explore deeper themes, all while offering a visual feast and a performance by Gene Wilder that remains timeless. Whether you're watching it for the first time or the hundredth, there's always something new to discover.Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcasthttps://www.borntowatch.com.au/

Sure Charlie Bucket got the factory because everyone else failed quicker, but was that the best move by Wonka? Running a business is hard work. Running a questionable legal chocolate manufacturing business with multiple scandals involving workers rights, fair pay and strange and unique injuries to guests is possibly harder. We don't think Charlie has it in him to bribe officials or squash any dissenting opinions about unions. His amoral failings will be the death of Wonka chocolate and Augustus Gloop will have died for nothing. At least under the ruthless eye of one of the other children, Gloop's legacy will live on. But more importantly Wonka's legacy will live on. Sure it might be Wonka-Salt now, but the chocolate's so good you'll die for it. Just ask Augustus. You can't. Because he's a dead little boy. Due to woeful safety regulations at the chocolate factory. But you know he'd say it and mean every word.Links to everything in our linktr.ee including our terrible merch, social media garbage and where to become a subscriber to Bad Brain Boys+If you're in Melbourne or the UK and want to see three beautiful idiots live and in the flesh, head on over to https://www.sanspantsradio.com/events/category/live-shows/ and grab your tickets today to see us in Melbourne, London, Edinburgh, Manchester and/or Birmingham.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- Things go off the rails quickly in the six o'clock hour: Matt says pizza from Italy is overrated, a man collected every single Wawa sandwich receipt numbered 0 to 999, and Rep. Cori Bush is still crazy. 6:15pm- While appearing on The View, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer confirmed that she would support Kamala Harris were she to become the Democrat party's presidential nominee. 6:20pm- CNN Political Director David Chalian examined polling data post-presidential debate, revealing: “Pre-debate, Donald Trump had a two-point edge in a poll...49% to 47%. That's a pretty close race. You see post-debate Donald Trump has stayed the same. He didn't grow his support with the debate, but Joe Biden took on some water. He is down to 44%. And that's a five-point lead in the poll for Donald Trump…But we are now talking about the light blue states, perhaps Minnesota, Virginia, New Mexico that are leaning Democratic.” He also explained that Trump now has a 10% advantage with independent voters.  6:35pm- First Lady Jill Biden now has her own entrance music…and it's just as terrible as you're imagining. One caller suggests it sounds like something Oompa Loompas would dance to. Hey look! There is Augustus Gloop! 6:40pm- While speaking before the House Financial Services Committee, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen denied that Joe Biden's cabinet members have ever considered invoking the 25th Amendment to replace him.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (07/09/2024): 3:05pm- During a chaotic White House press briefing on Monday, reporters grilled Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre over a report that a Parkinson's disease specialist has visited the White House multiple times in recent months. Tuesday's presser didn't go much better. Jean Pierre blamed Biden's poor debate performance on a cold and emphasized it was not the result of a neurological disorder. She went on to explain that the president immediately visited North Carolina, Georgia, New York, and New Jersey—illustrating his strength. So, was he just spreading his germs to potential voters? Despite spending a considerable amount of time attempting to claim President Biden is in perfect health, Jean Pierre was unable to provide a reasonable explanation as to why a Parkinson's doctor has visited the White House so frequently. Is the White House participating in a massive cover-up? 3:25pm- In a new piece documenting White House aides hiding President Joe Biden's diminishing health from the public, the Wall Street Journal writes of one previously undocumented incident: “German officials, aware of Biden's fatigue at night, sought to accommodate the president by planning a June 2022 event with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in the early evening. The informal event, a soiree at the Alpine resort Schloss Elmau during the Group of Seven summit, was arranged as a confidential meeting on Ukraine in a relaxed setting. Biden didn't show, surprising the chancellor and his aides, officials said. Instead, Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived and announced that Biden had to go to bed, according to two people who were there.” You can read the full article here: https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/joe-biden-age-public-election-campaign-343a47bf?mod=hp_lead_pos7 3:30pm- During Tuesday's press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre claimed that “if I have said, or misled in something that I have said—or I haven't had the full information, I actually own up to it.” But as Rich notes, she has participated in weeks and weeks of gaslighting—amounting to a cover-up. 3:45pm- At one point during Tuesday's White House press conference, Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked: “Say the Pentagon, at some point, picks up an incoming nuke—it's 11pm. Who do you call? The First Lady?” 4:05pm- In his latest opinion article for The Wall Street Journal, former Counsel to the Chairman of the Federal Election Commission Charlie Spies writes: “If [President Joe] Biden drops out before the Democratic Party formally makes him its nominee, then Federal Election Commission rules dictate that no more than $2,000 of any campaign funds that he raised may be transferred to any other candidate, including [Vice President Kamala] Harris.” You can read the full op-ed here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/biden-has-100-million-reasons-to-stay-in-election-finance-d8a2dfdf?mod=opinion_lead_pos5 4:20pm- While speaking with Sean Hannity on Fox News, presumptive Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump suggested that if Democrats remove Joe Biden at the top of their ticket it'll be Kamala Harris that takes his place. 4:30pm- Daniel Chaitlin of The Daily Wire reports: “President Joe Biden formally rejected on Monday a bill in Congress that would require individuals to show proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in elections for federal office. A policy statement from the Biden administration said it ‘strongly opposes' the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which was introduced by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) earlier this year and is expected to get a vote in the Republican-led House as early as this week, but did not mention the prospect of a veto.” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-formally-opposes-bill-requiring-voters-prove-citizenship?topStoryPosition=3 4:50pm- Who will Donald Trump pick to be his running mate? Doug Burgum? Marco Rubio? J.D. Vance? Plus, why is Matt not invited to the White House Easter Egg Roll? 5:05pm- House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, and Congresswoman Veronica Escobar reiterated their support for President Joe Biden's reelection campaign when asked by the press. Notably, Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal said “she's not here to give advice” to her colleagues and that discussions about Biden's ability to serve as president for another four-years should be made in “private.” 5:15pm- J.D. Tuccille of Reason.com writes that “the New York State government agreed to subsidize news media.” He continues: “With audiences declining for news reports, many very concerned people have called on governments to do something to prop up outlets failing to win enough public support to keep the lights on. That something comes in the form of money unlikely to win back an indifferent public but that stabilizes employment prospects for reporters. The result may be that journalists will cater to state officials rather than woo readers and viewers.” You can read the full article here: https://reason.com/2024/07/08/if-you-dont-trust-media-now-wait-until-its-government-funded/ 5:35pm- Former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy said that it was not uncommon for First Lady Jill Biden to attend meetings with President Joe Biden. 5:40pm- At one point during Tuesday's White House press conference, Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked: “Say the Pentagon, at some point, picks up an incoming nuke—it's 11pm. Who do you call? The First Lady?” 5:55pm- A New York Times article suggests that Kamala Harris' team is already looking into potential running mates should Joe Biden step aside, making her the nominee. The Harris team's shortlist includes Governors Josh Shapiro (PA), Andy Beshear (KY), and Roy Cooper (NC). 6:05pm- Things go off the rails quickly in the six o'clock hour: Matt says pizza from Italy is overrated, a man collected every single Wawa sandwich receipt numbered 0 to 999, and Rep. Cori Bush is still crazy. 6:15pm- While appearing on The View, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer confirmed that she would support Kamala Harris were she to become the Democrat party's presidential nominee. 6:20pm- CNN Political Director David Chalian examined polling data post-presidential debate, revealing: “Pre-debate, Donald Trump had a two-point edge in a poll...49% to 47%.

A few years ago some Dr Seuss books were outright discontinued because of supposedly ‘insensitive' imagery. But before we can be enraged it is critical to take an objective look at what's happening here. The same people who get upset about professional activists are the same people who find it their duty to be offended almost daily in the name of Christ. The same people upset over book rewrites hold tight to the most edited book in history, the Bible. Although these examples cannot be entirely conflated they are important to recognize. When we talk about censorship - banning, burning, or rewriting - there is some additional context. In ancient Rome officials were elected every five years to audit, investigate and offer needed solutions to the proper function of government. These censors derive their name from the original meaning of the word censor - to scrutinize or revise. The practice was continued into the late 18th-century with States like Pennsylvania which elected censors every seven years. In truly representative Republican government with limited democracy and guarantees to the preservation of unalienable rights, people reserve the censorial power. That power is for government, though, not culture. Censors today are called ‘sensitivity readers'. Whereas Dr Seuss got the full banned treatment, Roald Dahl books are being targeted for rewrite because of ‘insensitive' words. Words like ‘fat' for Augustus Gloop and ‘Oompa Loompa' in Dahl's ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' are being replaced with ‘enormous' and ‘small men'. ‘Cloud Men' in his ‘James and the Giant Peach' are now ‘Cloud People' and Miss Spider's head is no longer ‘black', while the ‘lovely pink' skin of the Earthworm is now ‘lovely smooth' skin. Mrs. Trunchbull's face is no longer ‘great horsey' in ‘Matilda', it's just a ‘face'. In Dahl's 1983 book 'The Witches', a sentence has even been aded to suggest that witches wear wigs for many reasons and not just because they may be bald. It reads: ‘There are plenty of other reasons why women might wear wigs and there is certainly nothing wrong with that.' In 2018 the British Royal Mint rejected a proposal to mark the 100th anniversary of Dahl's birth with a commemorative coin. The idea was rejected on the grounds that he was “associated with anti-Semitism and not regarded as an author of the highest reputation.” What is association but conviction in the court of manipulated public opinion? Mobs demanding elusive and arbitrary justice. Karl Marx was a known racist and anti-semite but who is campaigning to ban his destructive works?This is all despite the fact that Dahl's books are meant to teach kids valuable lessons like not be a glutton and standing up for yourself. Since Roald Dahl died in 1990 he is, of course, unable to stand up for his own work and so Puffin, the publisher, hired sensitivity readers to beta-test the rewrites. Due to public backlash, Puffin decided to offer the new version and classic version. Penguin announced they would published the classic version. One may wonder if this is just a sales tactic. Other book series like Harry Potter stand strong despite the author, J.K. Rowling becoming victim to a mob which says they are able to separate art from the artist in her case - they must really enjoy their childhood heroes and not understand hypocrisy. Those calling for a banning of Potter are at least consistent while the rest hold an insane double standard. Imagine these standards being applied to history, science, genetics, math, etc. Perhaps they already have been. If books aren't banned outright they are partly censored and rewritten. Meanwhile top pop songs, social media, and modern children's books are filled with sex, porn, perversity, obscenity, hatred for parents, etc.Language itself is being reduced with every abbreviation, hashtag, and grunt that gets the average person though a conversation. This is what Eric Blaire called Newspeak while “Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.” As he famously wrote in 1984: “Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.”Any society driven by feelings and emotion rather than facts and common sense - driven by animal reactions rather than divine guidance - is one with no guidance; it is one prone to destruction. This is a system of governance based on ‘war', as in a war on ‘xyz'. Greg from Pardon My American joins us to discuss: (https://www.pardonmyamerican.com)

Decenas de escritores y libreros de todo el mundo criticaron esta semana a la editorial británica Puffin Books, por realizar cambios en los textos de Roald Dahl, escritor referente de literatura infantil, autor de títulos como “Charlie y la fábrica de chocolate”. Los retoques eliminan expresiones que pueden resultar ofensivas, por ejemplo en las descripciones físicas de los personajes. De este modo, el Augustus Gloop de “Charlie y la fábrica de chocolate” ya no es “gordo” sino “enorme”. Además, la nueva edición de ese cuento convierte a los diminutos UmpaLumpas en seres de género neutro y la Señora Twit del libro “Los cretinos” ya no es “fea” y “bestial” sino solamente “bestial”. Según el diario británico The Guardian, la editorial “contrató a lectores sensibles para que reescribieran fragmentos del texto para asegurarse de que los libros ‘pudieran seguir siendo disfrutados por todos hoy'”. El informe agrega que Puffin Books hizo los cambios junto a Inclusive Minds, una organización que trabaja en pro de la inclusión y la accesibilidad de la literatura infantil. La reimpresión generó una ola de críticas en todo el mundo. Por ejemplo, el escritor argentino Sebastián Vargas escribió: “Creo que en esta acción subyace, no muy profundo, la idea de que la literatura para niños no es literatura de verdad, sino sólo textos para que los chicos lean y aprendan a portarse bien. Y por eso podemos cambiarle impunemente el texto a un libro de Roald Dahl, pero no lo propondríamos para un libro de Faulkner o de Joyce, o de cualquier otro autor ‘en serio'. Y también, y tampoco muy profundo, tras este tipo de censuras está la idea de que los niños no son personas completas. Que se pueden dañar irremediablemente si leen que un personaje es gordo”. ¿Qué dicen de esta polémica? ¿Cómo debe ser la literatura infantil? ¿Tiene que ser algo insípido, neutro, políticamente correcto?

GOOD or BAD Parenting?Parents who are against rewriting children's classics and will always seek out the originals to read to their kids.

It's Monday, February 20th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. By Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com) Christian families denied rations from Indian government Ten Christian families in the Central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh were denied government incentives by the village administration due to their faith affiliation, reports International Christian Concern. They were summoned on January 26th where the villagers, influenced by the radical Hindu nationalists, pressured the Christians to give up their Christian faith or be denied provisions like rice, beans, and oil that the government otherwise provides for the poor. These Christian families, which trusted Christ four years ago, have since been reeling under extreme harassment and physical abuse by the radical Hindus. However, they stand strong in spite of losing needed provisions. Additionally, the local pastor was denied entry to conduct worship and was taken by the police for interrogation on false conversion charges. He said, “The harassment continues to increase against Christians in Bara Chomri village. However, we Christians did not worry. We don't need incentives. [We're] ready to pay any cost and lay down our lives.” Police released the pastor with the warning not to enter the village again. In John 15:20, Jesus said, “A servant is not greater than his master. If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you also.” World Health and UNICEF are tricking and sterilizing young Kenyan women Google-owned YouTube has once again censored LifeSiteNews, this time for their reporting on a World Health Organization tetanus vaccine used to sterilize young women of childbearing age in Kenya, Africa. The Big Tech video-sharing platform has deleted an interview conducted by editor-in-chief John-Henry Westen with Dr. Wahome Ngare, a Kenyan obstetrician and gynecologist. In the interview, Dr. Ngare speaks out about how the World Health Organization's tetanus vaccine campaign, carried out in conjunction with the Kenyan government, was actually intended as a population control effort. LifeSiteNews has appealed the removal of the video and YouTube's strike against The John-Henry Westen Channel, which bans him from posting new content for 7 days. The strike does not expire until May 18; two more strikes would mean a permanent ban from YouTube. The key piece of evidence was the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin or HCG in several of the vaccine vials. HCG is a hormone integral to alerting a woman she is pregnant. Dr. Ngare explained to John-Henry Westen that the tetanus vaccine, laced with HCG, would produce both anti-tetanus and anti-HCG antibodies. Biden heads to Europe to shore up support for Ukraine President Joe Biden heads to Europe this week in a trip meant to be a show of defiance, reports Politico.com. He will mark a second year of war by denouncing Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine and publicly declare that the United States will support Kyiv until the final moments of the conflict. Biden leaves today for Poland to meet with President Andrzej Duda and other key NATO leaders. President Jimmy Carter in hospice care Former President Jimmy Carter has entered hospice care in his Georgia home, reports FoxNews.com. On Saturday, The Carter Center said, “After a series of short hospital stays, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter decided to spend his remaining time at home with his family and receive hospice care instead of additional medical intervention.” Actor Tom Sizemore had a brain aneurysm Saving Private Ryan star Tom Sizemore is in critical condition at a Los Angeles hospital after he suffered a brain aneurysm at his home, reports The Gazette-Times. His manager, Charles Lago, said Sizemore was at his South Main Street apartment at around 2:00am on Saturday when he suffered a brain aneurysm and became unconscious. Someone found the 61-year-old actor and quickly called 911. EMS crews then transported Sizemore to a local hospital, where he was listed in critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit.  He has had a history of drug abuse including meth and run-ins with the law including domestic violence against a former spouse. Politically-correct publisher changing Roald Dahl's children's books Roald Dahl, the British novelist who died in 1990 at the age of 74, would not be pleased with how Puffin publishing is deleting hundreds of words from and adding whole paragraphs to his original manuscripts -- all in the interest of political correctness, reports The Guardian. Puffin has hired “sensitivity readers” to rewrite chunks of the author's text to make sure the books “can continue to be enjoyed by all today,” resulting in extensive changes across Dahl's work including his bestselling children's books Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda, and James and The Giant Peach. For example, Augustus Gloop in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is now described as “enormous” instead of “fat.” In The Twits, Mrs. Twit is no longer “ugly and beastly,” but just “beastly.” And the Oompa-Loompas, the little people who worked to make the candy in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory, are now gender-neutral. OOMPA-LOOMPAS: “Oompa loompa doompa-de-doo, I've a perfect puzzle for you. Oompa loompa doompa-de-dee, If you are wise, you will listen to me.” 23-year-old woman rows solo 3,000 miles across Atlantic And finally, a 23-year-old woman just set the Talisker Challenge record for the fastest solo row across the 3,000-mile-wide Atlantic Ocean, reports Good News Network. Departing on December 10th from the Canary Islands, located 62 miles West of Morocco, Africa, Mariam Payne rowed 59 days, 16 hours, and 36 minutes, before arriving in Antigua, an island east of the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean Sea, last Friday. She raised $14,200 for the east Yorkshire charity Wellbeing of Women and Mind. The journey is described as the toughest endurance event on Earth. No support is allowed—all food, water, and other necessities must be brought along.  The organizers of the challenge said, “Sleep deprivation, hallucinations, hunger and the ultimate test of body and mind will be balanced by sighting incredible marine life, witnessing the breaking of a new day, and sunsets that cannot be viewed by land.” Payne rowed 15 hours per day, alone, in the vast Atlantic Ocean during 86°F days with strong winds. Before she left, she described her fears. PAYNE: “The sleep deprivation, seasickness, and dealing with the big waves. But I think a lot of it's going to be the boredom of it, especially being on my own.” It would have been a great time to talk to God in prayer, asking for His protection and thanking Him for his beautiful creation. Psalm 16:1 says, "Keep me safe, my God, for in You I take refuge.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, February 20th, in the year of our Lord 2023. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

De perdidos al río, y literalmente; así empezamos esta semana. Nos vamos de excursión a Kae (una excursión bastante dramática), nos escotamos con Sarene, y nos ponemos ominosas con Hrathen al más puro estilo Derethi. Además, contamos chistes de palos, nos quedamos encajadas como Augustus Gloop, debatimos si en Elantris hacían tai chi, y “pasamos casualmente por una zona en la que hubo caos y destrucción”. Ah, y recomendamos no salir a cenar nunca con un tal Telrii. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/esquirlas-del-cosmere/message

From Cadbury's 'a finger of fudge' to the Tory Party, by way of Augustus Gloop, Walter Mitty, sludge metal, and some below the belt slang.... There's more to fudge than I imagined. From the ministry of magic all the way back to well before 1066. Lyrical illustrations for this episode are borrowed from Anthony Newley, Lesley Bricusse, and Danny Elfman. And there are some other fine name drops.Fudgadelic!

TSA business with Bethany, included a preview of Undisclosed on June 23rd. I got the VIP treatment at the East Toledo Family Center. I'm a fan! Madi judged and rocked the Old West End Festival. For the most part, the economy 'sucks, but I'm doing OK enough.' We had a real life Augustus Gloop situation. Zoo for Bethany this weekend, I went last Friday and it was SO different from my last visit.

- In Chapter 3 of Goblet of Fire, Dudley and the Dursleys begin a diet, and Harry is invited to the Quidditch World Cup by the Weasleys.- Today's prompt is: There is a trope in literature of associating weight with moral goodness. In this chapter, Dudley (whose size is continually ridiculed) is on a diet while Harry relishes in secretly eating cake for breakfast. What role does the juxtaposition of these two characters, their sizes, and their personalities play in perpetuating or subverting that trope?- This episode is hosted by Bailey Alfaro.- Join in the conversation on MuggleNet's social media channels by using #PromptlyPotter

The 31st episode of the Honestly Not Even Worried podcast highlights a number of Nilo and Blake's core competencies, masterfully sprinkling bombastic live soundboards and improvised bangers laced with layers of depth and hidden philosophy onto a bed of hot topics including, but not limited to, The Silent Sea, Steely Dan, and the hidden life of Augustus Gloop (the greedy grease-glutton and oft-overlooked übermensch from the Willy Wonka Cinematic Universe.) When it comes to Nilo and Blake, a certain phrase may come to mind; one that, as far as we know, the duo has yet to utter themselves, but one that has most certainly been confirmed as uttered by others - “The boys are back.”

The episode that absolutely nobody was waiting for.....Willy Wonka!!! Ciera and guest co-host Mimí discuss the ridiculous characters of Willy Wonka (or is it Charlie?) and the Chocolate Factory. Augustus Gloop is pretty obvious...but what about Grandpa Joe? Grab some chocolate and join the fun!

Learn the difference between fighting and running, because we are back for our first season of new/old Wie is de Mol recaps! Over these nine weeks, two guys who are known as Clumsy & Passive respectively - Logan & Michael - are looking back on the season with the biggest twist in Mole history - Wie is de Mol: Georgia (et al.), continuing with the eighth episode this week and elimination of Simone. As a special treat this week, we're also joined by friend of the podcast and Mole encyclopedia - David Bindley! In this episode, Olcay still can't help herself, Logan knows where Ancient Voices comes from, Stine's evil twin joins a choir, Simone is terrible at charades, skipping Ed Sheeran could be unforgivable, we look back at whether Mole hosts knew who the Mole was, Jan is like Augustus Gloop, there's some praise for Art doing something Rik never would, we delve into Russian history, Michael wonders if this is the best final three of anything ever and we discuss what the Mole did for the final time this season. You can find us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram & YouTube or you can tweet Michael, Logan & Bindles directly! We will see you next week! Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us.

I think it’s common knowledge by now that F originated the role of Augustus Gloop in Broadway’s “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”, but did you know that he originally had dreams of being a band instructor??

Brandan is an actor and writer based in Salt Lake City. After graduating from the University of Utah with a BFA in Film & Media Arts, he's found steady work on-stage, on-camera, and on-paper for the better part of the last five years. He has worked with Plan-B Theatre, Hale Center Theatre, and Vavani Productions, among others, and has a small part in a Lifetime Christmas movie... but the peak of his career was in 9th grade, when he played Augustus Gloop in Willy Wonka Jr. www.brandanngo.com

In this episode of the Roald Dahl Retrospective, Patricia and Arun discuss about the 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory based on the 1964 book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory starring Peter Ostrum, Jack Albertson, Michael Bollner, Julie Dawn Cole, Denise Nickerson, Paris Themmen, and Gene Wilder. The movie is about a young boy named Charlie Bucket who hears the news about the famous candy maker Willy Wonka leaving 5 golden tickets in his chocolate bars for 5 lucky people to find it. If they win, they are awarded with a lifetime supply of chocolate. He's unsure of winning the prize since his family is very poor and cannot afford to purchase a lot of candy bars for him, but his Grandpa Joe is hopeful that he'll get one. He does alongside 4 other children named Augustus Gloop, Veruca Salt, Violet Beaureguarde, and Mike Teevee. When meeting Willy Wonka and entering his chocolate factory, he awaits a crazy adventure filled with candy, pure imagination, and weird concoctions. Will Charlie win the grand prize? What awaits in Willy Wonka's chocolate factory? When the movie premiered in theaters, it was a box office failure making only $4.5 million dollars with a $3 million dollar budget. It received mixed to positive reviews from critics. However, it wouldn't be until almost a decade later when it was released on home video and airing on TV that people would call it a beloved timeless classic. What do Patricia and Arun think of the movie? Listen and find out.

In this episode we discuss "the idea of autumn," as described by C.S. Lewis, the Danish idea of Hygge, or "coziness," and the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, the beauty to be found in impermanent things. We also geek out about Legend of the Five Rings, and Augustus Gloop gets an honorable mention for some reason.

Special guest CJ fills in for Dom as we watch the CSI crew try to solve the murder of the luckiest kid in the world. They are not paid enough to deal with a crowd of indistinguishable singing witnesses, physics-defying candy, and taffy people. Willy Wonka is a wizard, like seriously. We become offended on behalf of Augustus Gloop. Three friends read old fanfiction that they think might be good. Sometimes they are right. Sometimes they are not.

Instagram: @teamchriscross ( https://www.instagram.com/teamchriscross/ ) Facebook: @OCRCrosscast ( https://www.facebook.com/OCRCrossCast/ ) Website: https://teamchriscross.de/ Aber es bringt euch keinen Vorteil, weil die Level-Up-Lanes für alle zugänglich sein werden. Stellt euch deshalb auf lange Wartezeiten bei den Events ein. Ihr lauft alleine? Auch hieran hat Tough Mudder gedacht: es gibt Solo-Runner-Waves! Das bedeutet, dass hier alle Einzelläufer direkt an Start Kontakte für die Strecke geknüpft werden können. Auch das Mudder Village soll sich verändern (was ehrlich gesagt zeit wird, wenn man schon Eintritt für Zuschauer verlangt); Es gibt einen Live-DJ, mehrere Stände und Aussteller sowie Chillout-Ecken. Für alle, die Pick-Ups unpassend fanden als Pausensnack beim Laufen: diese werden von Raw Bite, einem Nuss-Frucht-Riegel, ersetzt. Auch der Toughest Mudder erfährt einige Veränderungen. Leider wird dieses Jahr nur einer in Europa angeboten: in Midlands, England. Die Länge wurde auf 12 Stunden erhöht. Es gibt keine Preisgelder, nur Medaillen. Es wurden mehrere Team-Realays angeboten: 2er, 4er und offene Teams. Das Pit-Zelt wird gestrichen, dafür wird es ein Camping a la World's Toughest Mudder geben. Für uns ein klarer Schritt zurück. Das Pit-Zelt hatte eine besondere Atmosphäre und hat den Läufern vieles vereinfacht. Zeltplätze streuen den gesamten Pit-Bereich und entfernen die Läufer voneinander. Für den Contender-Status beim World's Toughest Mudder müssen Frauen 35 Meilen, Männer 40 Meilen und Teams 45 Meilen erreichen. Das ist vollkommen machbar, wenn man bedenkt, dass das Event 4 Stunden länger geht. Es soll neben den 25 Meilen Batches auch andere Batches geben. Die Hindernisse wirkten letztes Jahr ideenlos, waren ohne Innovationen und wirkten lieblos. Tough Mudder hat deswegen einige Änderungen in Sachen Hinderisse angekündigt: es gibt 10 komplett neue Hindernisse, sowie Level-Up-Lanes, also mehrere Schwierigkeitsgrade für die alten Hindernisse. Die gute Nachricht für alte Hindernisse zuerst: es gibt Wasser unter Funky Monkey und das umstrittene Electroshock Therapy wird wieder Finisher-Hindernis! Eine weitere Verbesserung: das Zwei-Runden-System wird abgeschafft, es wird wieder eine Runde gelaufen. Für folgende Hindernisse gibt es Level-Up-Lanes: 1. Kiss of Mud - Hier hängt def Stscheldraht tiefer, also: Hintern runter! 2. Mystery Obstacle - wird erst am jeweiligen Eventtag enthüllt. 3. Everest - ein Abschnitt ist höher. 4. Pyramid Scheme - hier kommt die Latte in der Mitte zurück. 5. Hydrophobia - noch dunkler und enger. 6. Spread Eagle - weiter auseinander. Übt schonmal Spagat. 7. Augustus Gloop - noch enger und schwierigere Leiter. 8. Gauntlet - statt Planc gibt es Just the Tipp am Ende. 9. Black Widow - ihr dürft nur die Farbigen Slack Lines benutzen. 10. Leap of Faith - Übt schonmal Springen und Klettern: das Netz ist so Kurz, dass ihr nur mit den Armen in dem Netz hängt.

Leap of Faith - Ihr springt an ein Netz, klettert dieses nach oben und rutscht eine Stange nach unten. 6. Spread Eagel - Über zwei Slag Lines geht es über ein Wasserbecken. 7. Entrapment - Kopf runter, sonst gibt es einen Stromschlag! 8. Hydrophobia - Es wird eng, nass und dunkel. 9. Texas Hold'EM - Haltet euch gegenseitig auf dem Dreieckigen Gebilde. 10. Tight Squeeze - Es wird eng und dunkel. Für euch haben wir die Hindernisse beim World's Toughest Mudder getestet.

We're expecting! A new episode, that is. Get your sex pumpkins ready everyone because Lakembra of Hard Men Working Hard joins us from down under this week! Support the show on Patreon The Proud Boys need a new leader, but will Augustus Gloop be the boy to lead them to victory against lesbian Thanksgiving parades? Tune in to find out! We also discuss the hilarious cut content of W*nnie the P*oh from the Chinese release of Kingdom Hearts 3. It's like he was never really there, seriously folks. Speaking of not being all there, Logan Paul "comes out of the closet" this week (wait for it) as a flat earther. But, will his new friends accept him for his checkered past and rancid personality traits? We also get to your listener voicemails and more, so don't forget to be a part of the conversation by calling us at 312-788-7361. We promise we won't pick up the phone, just leave us a voicemail and we'll listen to it while we are on the air, and no sooner. Because that's how dedicated we are to being professional.

Matt Chorley is joined by Hugo Rifkind, who is worried about the vast power that vastly rich people today can have over our politics.In the week of the death of Jeremy Heywood, Rachel Sylvester wonders whether the civil service can withstand the huge pressure of Brexit.And Joe Jervis, co-author of Spirit of Britain, Purpose of Labour, says we are a nation divided between Communitarians and Cosmopolitans. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It’s the fourth of July…celebrate by listening to us talk about a German boy falling into a chocolate river. Minute 59 is where Augustus Gloop contaminates the chocolate river with his hands…and then his entire body. Also, Veruca has a weird idea of what an Oompa Loompa is, and we’re venturing into some pretty weird […]

From the start, the episode goes off the rails. Scott and Mike are joined by the Craft Brewed Sports mega-contributor, Jim Balint. JB brings two different Michigan brews, Kakahiaka Onu from Exferimination Brewing and and Augustus Gloop Double Chocolate Milk Stout from Fillmore 13, as the crew talks about Cuckland being Cuckland, Rich Hill helping the boos rain down, the Mike Berlon of sports promotions, soccer players kicking fans in the face, and Charles Barkley being a crazy asshole. The rest of the episode is some of the best calls that the show has gotten, battle raps, shit talk, and everything else. It’s one you absolutely don’t want to miss.

In this episode the girls go long on some important issues: the new minimum wage in Ontario, the Paris Climate Agreement, the new leader of the federal Conservative party, and Bill Maher's use of the N-word. They also disuss Karla Holmolka, the black vote, and the Fall 2017 TV line-up. And just who is the Misogynist of the Week? You'll have to listen to find out.

Startled from falling asleep to Teletubbies again? Join Ann, Mike and Bobby in Ann’s Therapy Corner, where an A is an F, a C is and A, and watching the TV in your Fiero is no problem because you’ve got a police escort from the stadium direct to your impractically hip hotel. So drown your picnic FOMO in forest Eggos and Augustus Gloop fantasies. Plus, Mike likely screwed some ESL students working on their US citizenship in the late ‘80s, and Ann quit her night job and bought a purple Shark. Because if you can’t go crazy with your vacuum color, than what can you do?

For the chocolate episode we use the power of Excel spreadsheets, the powerful testimony of Augustus Gloop and the harrowing screams of Aztec sacrifice to crack beneath its glossy, delicious, sugary surface.

It's time for another (late) episode of the Internet's No. 1 PlayStation podcast. Today, Colin runs through the news, Greg is deemed the Augustus Gloop of cancer, and Clements explains why The Walking Dead: The Game's gameplay doesn't do it for him.

SNAKE writes... AFTER BITING REAL WORLD BROOKLYN, I WAITED FOR THE VENOM TO SPREAD THROUGH THE CAST. WHILE I STARED AND TAUNTED MY PREY I SAW THAT PEOPLE WERE WATCHING THIS ATTACK. CLIVE DRISCOLL WAS ESPECIALLY ENTHUSED. IN FACT HE BEGAN CLUBBING THE WEAKENED VICTIM WITH HIS FAKE ARM...CLIVE writes...First of all, I just want to say that it is about time someone came out and bashed this season’s Real World. Well done, Snake. Another successful bite. Having said that, this season should not just be snake bit but castrated (wait, Katelyn already was).Being selected to be on the Real World is like getting the Golden Ticket of reality t.v. The producers, Bunim and Murray, one of whom is dead, so let me change that to Bunim or Murray, the one producer that is alive, is your Willy Wonka. Every year thousands upon thousands of fame-seeking nutcases send in their audition tapes, or to keep the analogy going, buy bars of chocolate. The tapes then get filtered down by the casting directors (who should be fired for this season a la Donald Trump to Andrew Dice Clay) who can alter any normal person’s life into a life of Gauntlet/Duel appearances, bar tours, and constant mockery on E!'s The Soup.As Snake mentioned, these fucking moron casting directors selected not one but two people from Salt Lake City, Utah. As far as I know there are two things good about Salt Lake City, Utah, one is Karl "The Mailman" Malone,() and.... nothing else. Also, correct me if I am wrong, doesn't the Real World consist of 7 cast members. 21 seasons of 7 cast members and this group of shmohawks (courtesy of Larry David) decide to cast 8. The final decision in putting the worst cast together in RW history must have been so hard that they decided they had to include the transgender AND the boring guy with great abs. Yet, here we are today, approaching the final episode of the worst season ever, or as I call it, my own personal glass elevator that will set me free of this nonsense world.I'VE GOT A GOLDEN TICKET, I'VE GOT A GOLDEN TWINKLE IN MY EYE:Picture each cast member’s initial reaction to getting the call (finding their ticket) to be chosen for the Real World…Chet: So excited that he almost touched a boobie for the first time. Instead he wrapped his purple scarf around his neck and started masturbating furiously to pre-taped episodes of Carson Daily hosting TRL.Ryan: Tried to return the engagement ring he bought his girlfriend, but found out it was non-refundable. Afterwards, he googled Pranks and started shining his shoes.Carl: (Wait, who is Carl? Carl is Katelynn’s birth name.) Carl found out and wanted to really flip the script on the nation. Carl booked a plane to Thailand, bought a pair of booty shorts and went to a back-alley abortion clinic and said, "Make this work."Scott: After finding out, Scott not pleased enough with his abs, spent 248 hours in the gym working out. Only stopping to check himself out in the mirror and to spot his workout buddy who happens to be into guys.Sarah: Bitches and complains she got chosen because that is all she knows how to do. Feeling her sleeve of tattoos was not enough to make her stand out, she decides that back when she was 10 she shouldn’t have shared a sleeping bag with her father. He is now an estranged sexual molester and she the whiny-cunt of a victim.Devyn: Wipes the cum of three casting directors off her face. She is so thrilled that she is chosen, she offers them the opportunity to tittyfuck her as well. Disgusted by her nipple-to-boobie ratio, they decline and ask her to leave.J.D.: Has no family and no friends, he has no boyfriend because he is not gay, he is fucking faggot. JD celebrated by fucking the blowhole of his favorite dolphin, Fudgie. Not satisfied by Fudgie, JD then paid a homeless man 20 bucks to provide that particular golden twinkle in his eye.Baya: Is so excited she has bee chosen and given a chance to escape her hometown of Salt Lake City. That night celebrating with her hippie parents she goes into a dance frenzy, falls and fucks up her two front teeth, leaving her with a noticeable gap. (I would still fuck her btw, she is hot.)The Cast:They arrive at the factory and the camera starts rolling. The nation finds out this year has a twist: 8 cast members. 4 guys and 4 girls? Or is it 5 guys and 3 girls? Or is it 2 guys and 6 girls?What happened to the good old Real World Casting Stereotypes? The gay guy, the bumpkin, the bitch, the hot girl, the black guy, the weird guy, and the x-factor. Over the first 20 years, these tried-and-true stereotypes have provided us with great characters like the Miz, that Oakland Raiders cheerleader, Choral, multiple overly gay men, Tyree "you stabbed my father,” etc. This year we have no black guy. (To hold shit down.)Instead we have Scott or Wonka's Mike Teavee. Teavee was, as his last name implied, a television fanatic, seldom away from his television set. Instead of TV, Scott is seldom away from the gym. The fucking moron has the opportunity to get any girl he wants on any night of the week and opts to play pool, check emails, workout, and build a love/hate relationship with a transgender. Remember the episode where, Katelynn has no money (because she spent god knows how much to clip her penis and turn it into a walking black hole looking to suck in anything within range) and Scott comes in and, despite their constant arguing, provides her with some money. I remember screaming out, “fuck” really loud. Typical douche. Scott deserves the same fate as Teavee, to be shrunk. Scott should stripped of all his steriods and given the same procedure as Katelynn since his nuts have already shrunk from the lack of pussy during this season. Fuck you, Scott, you fucking ungrateful piece of shit.Speaking of Katelynn, the similarities between her and Arthur Slugworth are remarkable. They are both ugly as sin and evil. Slugworth is looking for the formula for the "everlasting gobstopper" and Katelynn is looking for the formula for the "everlasting nightmare." SHE HAS FOUND IT. Watching her flock around the house in booty shorts, make out with guys and girls, pole dance, and even just speak words has kept me up many a night, crying and asking why. Why hasn't Murray or Bunim said, "This is too much... We like nudity, it gets us ratings but this is just fucking wrong." She could wear the crown for ‘Someone-Who-Grosses-Me-The-Fuck-Out-On-Sight.’ Of course, in the movie it turns out that Slugworth is really Mr. Wilkerson, just like Katelynn pretending to something she is clearly not, a woman. Fuck you, you fucking disgusting piece of shit.Speaking of pieces of shit, JD will take that crown. This midget dolphin trainer, like all gay men, thinks he is better than everyone else. I hate his posture, I hate the way he talks and looks. He can only be likened to the Oompa Loompas. First, he would fit in as an Oompa Loompa for his height. Second, he would fit in because he likes banging guys. I am sorry to drop the bomb, but hundreds of little orange men working in a chocolate factory with no women in sight? Excuse the obvious pun, but there is definitely some fudge packing. JD had the moment this season where he broke a glass table. I don't remember why and I don't care. Oh now I do, he is a drama queen who instead of singing catchy tunes that teach lessons, he sucks pole. Fuck you, you fucking cock-sucking piece of shit.You can't say “cock-sucking” and not think of Chet. If he is straight and has never had a cock in or around his mouth, than I will jump out the window of my apartment. Chet is Augustus Gloop, the gluttonous overeater. Chet is not overeating, though, he is being overviewed. Every episode Chet dominates with his ambiguous behavior. Am I the only one who thinks he is on Ryan's balls a bit too much? He got his bowtie in a frenzy that one episode where Ryan didn't come home on time. We have to watch week after week as Chet hosts this show, or applies for his MTV job, or almost comes out, or pretends to like Scott’s friend to mask his cock loving. Additionally, he has worn the same outfits the whole season. You unoriginal fuck. You need to finally fall into that chocolate river and come out of the closet. I am sorry, mormon or not, if you are 21 years or older and have not touched a boob, you are gay. If you are not gay, you should think about becoming gay. Fuck you, you fucking virgin piece of shit.One person who is clearly not a virgin is Devyn. As Beyonce says, “A Diva is the female version of a Hustler.” And as I say, “An annoying slutty cunt is the my version of a Diva.” If I hear Devyn liken herself to a Diva one more time, I am going to cut the fake titty out of her and suffocate her with it. Devyn, like Wonka's Veruca Salt, regularly exerts petulant behavior in order to get what she desires. Devyn spends her time on the phone talking to the 6-8 guys she teases in order to get what she wants, money. When I look at Devyn, I can't help but think she takes monster dumps. I hate how she wears that sleep mask also (just a sidenote). Devyn deserves the same fate as Veruca, whose endgame comes in Wonka's Nut Sorting Room. No explanation needed. Fuck you, you fucking Diva-wanna-be piece of shit.Baya, oh Baya. Do people in Salt Lake City not fuck? She is really hot, she moves well, she has a bit of a gapper but that just gives u a target, like trying to score a goal. Baya is Violet Beauregarde, a tomboy who exhibits a more competitive spirit than the four other ticket winners. Baya does herself no justice by dressing in sweatpants and hoodies every episode. Show some skin, you should be pole dancing, not that mutant. Just as Violet chews her gum constantly, Baya constantly is not speaking as if she is chewing so much gum she can't speak. There are some episodes where I didn’t even see her once. Damn shame because I actually like her. She will suffer the same fate as Violet and turn into a giant blueberry. Baya will keep putting of her dancing dreams and after realizing that she missed the opportunity of a lifetime and took a back seat this season will comfort herself with food. After gaining 70 pounds, her DJ'ing dreams will end, and back to Salt Lake City. Fuck you, you fucking hot piece of shit.Someone else on this season, I remotely like is Ryan or in Wonka's case, Charlie. Ryan is likable and good hearted like Charlie. But for fucks’ sake man, you are on the Real World. Have you not watched in the past? Guys like you are cleaning up on a nightly basis. By episode 4 you are supposed to break up with the home girlfriend and bang the hot room mate, Baya. It is a science. Did the PTSD take away your libido? Like Charlie, Ryan would rather hang out with his family than go out there and bang some hot ass. Charlie could have walked down the street with that golden ticket and banged some serious whores or in his case got jerked off (he was 11ish). Ryan could have banged Baya if he wanted to, and then moved onto the millions of NYC girls who would suck a dick for ten minutes of fame on MTV. But no, this fuck had to do the right thing like Charlie. Where did that get you though? Back in Iraq, with no pussy, you fucked up. Fuck you, you fucking honest piece of shit.Last but not least, Sarah, the tattooed bitch who, as Snake pointed out, looks like the dude from Blink 182. I never thought she was remotely good looking but has she gained 20-30 pounds since the show started? What is with this season and choosing people with some serious issues? Transgender, JD's abusive father, Sarah's sexually abusive father, Ryan's army experience, Baya's SLC background, Chet's lackof pussy, Scott's steroid issue, Devyn's porn past. Sarah is Wonka's...actually fuck that, Sarah just sucks. Nothing good about her at all. What did the casting directors see in her? "Oh, she has a sleeve of tattoos, she is edgy." Yeah doing finger paintings with 5 year olds is real edgy. Sarah is the kind of girl who has a FUPA and hides it well and has a pussy that smells worse than curry mixed with an overweight kids sweat after a rigorous game of dodgeball. Fuck you, you fucking worst casted Real World member piece of shit.YOU LOSE. GOOD DAY, SIR!!!In summary, Bunim or Murray (the living one), should fire every casting director involved with this season’s meltdown. I blame myself for tuning in week after week hoping for Ryan to bang a chick, or Baya to show some skin, or Chet to cum instantly after touching his first vagina, or Devyn to not be on the phone, or Katelynn to get drunk reach inside herself and pull out Carl's penis, or Scott to jam that pool stick up his ass so far it comes out of his nose, or JD to go down on his roomates while they are asleep, or Sarah to not piss me off. Fuck this season, fuck Bunim or Murray, whichever one is alive. You all lose, you all wasted the golden ticket. There is no glass elevator for any of you, just a swift kick in the nuts, vag, or vagnuts from me if I ever see any of you walking the streets of NYC.Congratulations, Real World. You've just been Driscolled.-Clyde
