This is a cool project. It would be really powerful if you could integrate Home Assistant's voice assist into this. I haven't played with it much, but I believe you can create custom sentences which would probably help with the joke telling. Or I think you can even set ChatGPT as the backend which seems like it'd make some of this stuff a lot easier (like reformatting the train times). And this would enable speech to text so you wouldn't have to mess with a phone tree and mapping dialed numbers to letters.
