Last week's challenge: This challenge comes from listener Greg Van Mechelen of Berkeley, Calif. Think of a five-letter word. Change the first letter to the next letter of the alphabet, and you'll get a new word that doesn't share any sounds with the first one. Then change its first letter to the next letter of the alphabet, and you'll get a third word that doesn't share any sounds with either of the first two. What words are these?
Challenge answer: Bough --> Cough --> Dough
Winner: Rachel Mazor of Brooklyn, N.Y.
