65 - Madi watches A Cry in the Dark / Evil Angels (1988)

Somehow, the international phrase, "A Dingo Ate my Baby" plagued middle school playgrounds in the early 2000s. Paired with a butchered Australian accent, we clearly didn't know what it meant. And that's because actually, we weren't even saying the correct quote to begin with.

Today, we're learning the TRUE quote and the story behind it, when we discuss the disappearance of baby Azaria.

Watch out for wombats, wallabies, and of course, dingoes because we're headed to the Australian Outback! 🦘
