WEBVTT - MINI: The Willy Wonka Experience

0:00:01.520 --> 0:00:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Them, Christian No Common Show podcast. I couldn't

0:00:05.360 --> 0:00:08.719
<v Speaker 1>get enough of an emerging news story coming from Scotland yesterday.

0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>We have these big TVs out here in the office

0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:15.240
<v Speaker 1>where the sales team set. Therese massive big TV's got

0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:17.239
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why they have the news on, by

0:00:17.280 --> 0:00:18.919
<v Speaker 1>the way, it's always got the news on. But anyway,

0:00:19.280 --> 0:00:21.720
<v Speaker 1>they had like this big flash up. The headline was

0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Immersive Wonker Experience horrifies children and it was some sort

0:00:27.280 --> 0:00:30.000
<v Speaker 1>of made up from a very funny satirical American website,

0:00:30.160 --> 0:00:32.720
<v Speaker 1>The Onion, and I got my phone out to take

0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:35.199
<v Speaker 1>a photo because I immediately thought I need to know

0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:38.839
<v Speaker 1>about this. It's not something you don't annoyally see that together.

0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:41.479
<v Speaker 1>It felt like the ghost of Wonka was putting this

0:00:41.560 --> 0:00:45.199
<v Speaker 1>together because you know, basically, four kids died in the

0:00:45.200 --> 0:00:48.640
<v Speaker 1>original Wonker Immersive Walker Experience. Those people are lucky they

0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:51.320
<v Speaker 1>left with their wives and only losing their lives, only

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 1>losing seventy bucks. But in Scotland, what was advertised as

0:00:55.600 --> 0:01:01.200
<v Speaker 1>Willie's Chocolate Experience, charging seventy bucks entry, it was an

0:01:01.200 --> 0:01:04.240
<v Speaker 1>immersive experience. The promise to transport Winnie Wonka fans to

0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:07.200
<v Speaker 1>a magical realm was such a letdown that they called

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:11.200
<v Speaker 1>the police and said it looked like a meth lab.

0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:13.080
<v Speaker 1>This is what happened to some of the people that

0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>were in train spotting. They try to rip off all

0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:21.319
<v Speaker 1>Scottish families and the police were called. They called the police.

0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Imagine you had such a bad experience at a kid's

0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:25.679
<v Speaker 1>non attraction.

0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:29.000
<v Speaker 2>You called the police. But it was so bad, it's awful.

0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:32.520
<v Speaker 2>It's built inside a warehouse. Yeah, and it's so sparsely

0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 2>fitted out. It looks like a local primary school could

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:36.600
<v Speaker 2>have done a better job of making it look magical.

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:42.559
<v Speaker 1>Screams a small radio station trying to promote the movie

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Winnie Wonka unofficially days that was a lot of obis.

0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 1>But to charge on sefty bucks to go to a

0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Scottish warehouse, according to the BBC, a sparsely decorated warehouse

0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:02.000
<v Speaker 1>with a scattering of plastic prime, a small bouncy castle.

0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 1>And then there was also that children were given one

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 1>jelly bean and at half a cup of supermarket home

0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:16.440
<v Speaker 1>brand lemon. Even CNN reporting on it, there was no

0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:20.880
<v Speaker 1>captivating entertainment, no paradise of sweet treats as was advertised.

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:24.240
<v Speaker 1>One actor who was hired to work the event, described

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:26.640
<v Speaker 1>it as quote where dreams.

0:02:26.320 --> 0:02:27.040
<v Speaker 2>Go to die.

0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:28.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh damn.

0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Perhaps you have you've seen it, No, I haven't. Oh

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:33.200
<v Speaker 1>my word, there's some I don't know whether she's an

0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:35.360
<v Speaker 1>actress or she's.

0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:38.600
<v Speaker 2>She's like one of the umple lumpers. Yeah, dressed is

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:38.959
<v Speaker 2>one of them.

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Behind what does look like a meth lab. It's it

0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:46.760
<v Speaker 1>is actually sort of chemicals in flassnet where the frozen

0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:49.240
<v Speaker 1>look on her face looks like she's questioning all the

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 1>life choices that have led to that precise moment. The BBC,

0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:56.280
<v Speaker 1>obviously they do. They are one of the biggest broadcasters

0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:58.080
<v Speaker 1>in the world. They do a massive phone and at

0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:00.280
<v Speaker 1>midday kind of like Neil Mitchell, but you talk about

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 1>ten or eleven million people listening. Shot huge. Jeremy Vine

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:05.840
<v Speaker 1>the BBC. I've worked for the BBC for years. You

0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:07.919
<v Speaker 1>are not allowed to have bad language on there. It's

0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.440
<v Speaker 1>like a major thing. Soe Carson, who was there and

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 1>sweat and I think it's the right use to swear word.

0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:15.799
<v Speaker 1>It's the only way to describe someone like that. Jeremy Vine,

0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:18.079
<v Speaker 1>the host, is not happy with the swearing. He's more

0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:20.679
<v Speaker 1>upset with the swearing than actually the kids being ripped off.

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:24.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I think part of my language, the bad way

0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:28.080
<v Speaker 3>of describing it. It was an absolute shit show. Yeah,

0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:30.320
<v Speaker 3>let's try and if we can keep the language a

0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:34.000
<v Speaker 3>little bit cleaner, that would be okay. That's fine. You've you've,

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:35.560
<v Speaker 3>you've done it, and you've said it.

0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Don't ever do that again, please, I mean, Jeremy, come here,

0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:42.400
<v Speaker 1>listen to the radio here, you'd be horrified, sir.

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:46.760
<v Speaker 3>I think part of my language, the bad way of

0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:47.360
<v Speaker 3>describing it.

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:48.600
<v Speaker 1>It was an absolute ship show.

0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:52.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, let's try and if we can keep the language

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 3>a little bit cleaner, that would be. Okay. That's fine.

0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:57.680
<v Speaker 3>You've you've, you've done it, and you've said it. It must

0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 3>never happen. That's done. It's done. Anyway.

0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:06.760
<v Speaker 1>You need you need these, you need these photos in

0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:09.080
<v Speaker 1>your life. Trust me. Right today, when you get a moment,

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:11.880
<v Speaker 1>google the news story. It's increble. Look at the lady

0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:12.119
