  1. “The Wizard of Oz”, 85th Anniversary Celebration – Complete Episode

    “The Wizard of Oz”, 85th Anniversary Celebration – Complete Episode

    *GREAT! VIDEO VERSION: https://bit.ly/3ZdVAuO America’s favorite movie (and other countries too) is celebrating a milestone birthday. So why a scandal? Well, most people don’t know that the production of this cherished family film was fraught with many bizarre difficulties and life-threatening events for certain actors. Just a sample - Margaret Hamilton, the actress that played the Wicked Witch, received 3rd degree burns in her fire scenes that required 6 weeks of hospitalization. The 123 small people playing the “Munchkins” went more than a little crazy in Hollywood/LA with the money they were paid. And (then) 15 year old star, Judy Garland, would get hooked on the narcotics, MGM studio doctors prescribed to her. A life long addiction that resulted in her untimely death at only age 47. Great, beloved movie, yes – but with an inexplicable legacy of terrible behind-the scenes calamities.  Anuradha and I cover it all for you! Includes the (previously published) amazing “Part One” audio theater piece with our repertoire company of great actors. Our music is composed, preformed and produced by the genius John Hoekstra.

  2. Panic At The Amusement Park

    Panic At The Amusement Park

    Who doesn’t love going to an amusement park in the summer with their kids or grandchildren? BUT – are the rides safe and are ‘express lanes’ fair and in the spirit of our democratic nation? But where did these parks come from in the first place? We send our co-host on an all-expense paid trip to one of America’s favorite parks – to investigate first hand. Back in 1955, an entrepreneur named Walt Disney made a crazy investment that everyone on Wall Street advised him not to do. He put almost every dime he had on the line ... and held his breath. It was an early theme park called, “Disneyland”. Despite early dire projections, Disney’s big gamble paid off a 10 thousand times over and so have its many sister parks. Taking Disney’s example, hundreds of theme parks, around the world, have now, collectively, become multi-trillion $$$ dollar businesses, 60+ years later. Yet…do dire scandals lie simmering beneath these places of... so-called, family happiness? We welcome back John Hoekstra as our brilliant guest host. Like Peter Sellers in Kubrick’s “Dr. Strangelove”, he plays more than one role in this episode. A man of many talents! He also composes, preforms and produces most of our music for the pod.
