Oz
Thank you for a different kind of journey than what Dorothy found herself on. I like so many other people, have been on my own journey since I was a kid. I am so happy to have listened to your podcast and learned some extra back story that I may have learned many years ago but have now forgotten....Read full review »

I live in Grand Rapids, and I must say so many of us really have payed no attention to this whole story nor Judy, we know but don’t care. This is a very interesting podcast, thank you. I know all the people who are on here locally. Will you continue with the trial ?

I wanted to like this story Probably could’ve been 3 episodes. It felt so padded with unnecessary information. The narration was lackluster and uninterested. The interviews were boring. You should get a better team and re-record this and tighten it up. A story about the theft of runt slippers ...Read full review »

This podcast was riveting from beginning to end. Twists, turns, along with some fascinating insights into Hollywood history, and the preservation of its artifacts. Well done!

Really wanted to hear this podcast but the vocal fry makes it impossible for me to go on.

I couldn’t get into it
Cpratte89 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/22
As an Oz fan, I was excited to come across this podcast, but apprehensive (being a fan of the film you come across the same trivia recycled over and over again on various documentaries and in books) that it wouldn’t delve deep enough into the story of the missing slippers. I am thrilled to say,...Read full review »

I wish there was video to go with the podcast. I love it. Characters are so, so, so,. Just like sitting at the bar at the VC on a Tuesday morning.

I enjoyed this podcast a lot. It’s a fascinating story about an iconic symbol that’s means so much to people all over the world.

This was a fascinating podcast. I love how it incorporated movie history with crime investigation. And I love knowing the most likely answer to who stole the slippers! Overall so well done, with interview clips from past and present, and Wizard of Oz info that’s catnip to fans.
Beth from MN via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/09/21
The story is fascinating and well researched. However, we struggled with the technical issues and constant interruptions. The volume level of the interviews, narration, and COMMERCIALS is all over the place. I found it very hard to hear and understand many of the interviews while driving or doing...Read full review »

This was a great podcast! I loved it! I love a crime podcast where it isn’t about murder. This was very well done.
AMRB03 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/08/21
Very interesting podcast, well researched, produced and edited. But the host’s upward inflections and Millennial speech patterns really annoyed me by the latter episodes.
spicybeans123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/21
The basic premise of this show is fairly captivating but they probably could have cut two episodes from it. There’s a lot of diversion into stuff about Judy Garland that doesn’t have a direct link to the theft. I guess that’s there for the hard core Wizard of Oz fans but thirty minutes devoted to...Read full review »
Fellintooblivion via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/07/21
This was an interesting podcast and I appreciate the work that went into it. However, it really fell flat at times. The narration, at times, made me cringe. Was it purposeful to have the narration sound so monotonous? Seriously- if the hosts sound bored than why should the audience muster up...Read full review »
MandeeFY via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/21
The narrators seem to have absolutely no passion for what they’re talking about. Some of the stories are interesting, but I can’t get past monotone script reading and the amount of vocal fry that BOTH narrators use. It is unlistenable. Makes me wonder if they were hired for this without an...Read full review »
Joelsephiryn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/01/21
I really enjoyed how many different angles this story was covered from. This isn’t just for oz fans. It’s a true crime that is about the nature of art theft and the unique place it has in the psychology and motivations of the ownership of famous things. The reporters did a fantastic job of...Read full review »
theappleofadam via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/19/21
Only 8 episodes, so….. if you love, like, or are just slightly familiar with Judy Garland, you’ll like this. I had no idea about how many Ruby slippers were in existence, or that the “traveling” pair even disappeared. Short & interesting, you won’t be disappointed! *now I want to go to Grand...Read full review »

The story took some great unexpected twists. Recommend!
PogoTX via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/13/21
What a gem of a podcast! Smart, informative, enjoyable. I learned a lot. My love of the Wizard of Oz and the Ruby Slippers has grown. Thanks, y’all!
Joeandangie123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/21
Really enjoyed this podcast. Interesting, well paced. Love the back story of the slippers.
Seeker rf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/09/21
Clearly, this show was commissioned before a legal resolution was reached. All the questions remain unanswered, and our time is wasted by various people talking about barely related things. At times I was embarrassed for the authors who clearly had to stretch such limited material to include an...Read full review »

I love this podcast but I feel like the episodes are out of order?
Amandajs1015 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/05/21
The two narrators are a bit young to have passion for this story — and they don’t give much reason otherwise — so they’re reporting the story because they thought it made a good story — which it is, it just doesn’t appear the narrators really “get it” (not growing up with the film). And their...Read full review »

I think if you’re really into the Wizard of Oz movie and the ruby slippers in particular, you might find this interesting. I didn’t find it very interesting. It’s meandering and could have been edited better. Listening was kind of like reading a book that you don’t really love, but you finish...Read full review »

Boring and just gets worse with each episode. Could have been covered in an hour. Proof that anyone can make a podcast.
Ziggy7411 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/21
If you are a fan of The Wizard if Oz, this is a must !!!!
Cyndi via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/21
Very interesting. Great show.
mowgirl1970 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/27/21
Eye roll. Poorly produced, to boot.
Meanmaggie1984 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/21
This combines my three of my favorite things: true crime, Minnesota, and the wizard of oz. Its like this podcast was made specifically for me.
beast mom nicole via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/20/21
A very well-done podcast! Such an interesting topic, and told with the story-telling it deserves.
kay siva via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/20/21
I literally heard an ad for this in SXM in the way to a Dental Surgery and thought it would be a good thing to get me through that experience. I told the dentist and his two assistants what I was listening to- turns out they are huge JG fans, so we all listened to the first 2 episodes and it was...Read full review »

The two young female podcasters are acting like this is some “new” story and that THEY’VE discovered some huge secret: the allure of Judy Garland and the long, involved, complicated history of her ruby slippers. It’s an OLD STORY, young ‘uns. Millennials are so cute.
MarGarBar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/21
I’m just wondering what happened to episode 2?
KMJ* via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/21
As a HUGE Wizard of Oz fan I am loving this, and look forward to it every Tuesday.
AmyT1975 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/14/21
I truly hope that this podcast has new information about the slippers. If not, it’s an absolute horrible way to advertise a new podcast. Based on articles, the case remains unsolved.
Kdjlkcl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/08/21
Very well done!! I am enjoying listening to each episode.
JTT4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/07/21
Wizard of Oz is my favorite movie since I was 4 and I was concerned the podcast might be a little dry or hard to listen to. It’s better than watching a movie. It’s captivating. If you have a heart, a brain, and some courage listen to this podcast! 👠
actor_prez via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/21
I love Judy, I love The Wizard of Oz... this podcast started off strong and then got boring. Filler episodes in my opinion until they get to the point. Losing my patience waiting for them to get there unfortunately
Photogmagob via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/21
Wonderful podcast, so well done
A meathead via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/03/21
Very interesting and informative. I really have enjoyed it so far. The Republican sponsors are tacky though.
chacerz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/21
I love how informative the podcast is about old Hollywood, as well as the heist. Very well done girls!
theJG35 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/01/21
What a great real-life adventure. Someone else has remarked this is like a Coen brothers movie and I TOTALLY agree! The whole big city/small-town vibe is here. Plus, the sense of wonderment from The Wizard of Oz is here too. Great production quality, great story-telling. This is my new favorite...Read full review »

I’m enjoying the podcast but I just can’t understand why we have to hear ear piercing tooth whistles during scripted and edited narration.
shleeemarie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/29/21
My all-time favorite movie and loved hearing all these stories, thank u!!!!
pinacoloda via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/29/21
Great great podcast. Very informative and captivating. 5 stars for effort, content and structure.
davey_g_t via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/26/21
Feels like a real-life Coen brothers film
