I'm pretty sure homophones were banned a couple games ago.

It's about time to. What if a homophone and a homonym got together and had a child? This is what's ruining Codenames.

Rhyming was banned. “Shoe” for “Shoo fly” is fine

Or maybe it could be Crash? The connection is undeniable, but whether or not it's intended remains to be discovered.

Im seeing the same thing in press, teacher and church.

Press seems like a definite, the other two become a toss up

So if you were trying to link Press/Church how would you do it?

"Gutenburg" seems like an obvious clue to me but idk if it would occur to others.

If you were trying to link Press/Teacher how would you do it? A famous journalism school?

Gutenberg wouldn't be a bad one to connect those, would force you to look at press a different way, and with scandal as the clue press and church don't fit.
