Show notes
Mega YouTuber MrBeast created a video where he recreated Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, and then put 10 contestants through a series of tests and trials to see who would win. So, you know what that means . . . we have to cover it! HA. How accurate is MrBeast’s recreation? How angry does this make us? Does MrBeast have to been inducted into the Wonka-verse as our 13th Wonka? To keep up-to-date on all things Wonka, be sure to follow us on TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter @wonkawatch.
