Yeah, we (Dads Mike and Dave) were as surprised as you are:

Dad-In-Waiting Tooky Kavanagh did not see this film until AFTER watching BOTH parts of WICKED.

The times, they are a-changin'...

And it's not a bad thing: is there a more seminal piece of culture than the Wizard of Oz? People have been going back to L. Frank Baum's story in various media for almost a century, probably because it still has things to tell us about discovery, identity, and growing up. Engaging with a meaningful piece of culture through fresh eyes is one of the great joys of Dadhood, no matter the road you take to get there, be it yellow-bricked or otherwise. This might be our ur-episode, the clearest distillation of our raison d'etre le Papa. If the Dads aren't back in a fortnight, it's because we've been podcast raptured. See you in Heaven, chumps. In the meantime, enjoy Victor Fleming's (and Judy Garland's and Margaret Hamilton's and Bert Lahr's and and Ray Bolger's and Jack Haley's and Frank Garland's and literally everyone's, because it belongs to the ages) 1939 film THE WIZARD OF OZ.
