Episode description

(Originally released on May 30th, 2018) Close your eyes, tap your heels together three times, and join Paul & Amy as they discuss 1939’s The Wizard Of Oz! Discover what makes the land of Oz so satisfyingly tactile, how the Tin Man and Cowardly Lion tormented each other on set, and whether this is the most influential film of all time. Plus: Paul & Amy talk to Walter Krueger, who owns one of the world’s biggest collections of Oz memorabilia.

Next week the pod will really tie the room together as we cover the 1998 crime comedy classic The Big Lebowski!
