Tara and EmKay dive into the wonderfully wacky world of 1972's "Journey Back to Oz" and are ready to give Liza Minnelli's Dorothy and Ethel Merman's Mombi all the LOVE! Rabbit holes include the history of Filmation, the company that created the move, the long backstory of how the movie finally came to be, and your gingham gals' personal favorite (and not so favorite) moments! 

*Please note, in this episode we explore the history of 1972’s "Journey Back to Oz," which in its later television syndication in 1976 unfortunately featured segments with Bill Cosby as the wizard.  This led to a conversation about Bill Cosby’s recently overturned sexual assault conviction and it’s damaging repercussions, diving deeper into the topic of sexual abuse and the recent documentary Allen v. Farrow.  We acknowledge the sensitivity and gravity of this subject and want to see our listeners who are survivors.  We will give another disclaimer before this part of the conversation for anyone who wants to opt out and skip ahead to 1:06:00.  Thank you.
