As a bonus episode, The Royal Podcast of Oz presents this old time radio
production. Maxwell House's Good News would feature actors from MGM's
films, often as promotion for those films. The June 29, 1939 episode
featured the upcoming film The Wizard of Oz, including
appearances by Judy Garland, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, Frank Morgan, E.Y.
"Yip" Harburg, and the original Broadway Scarecrow, Fred Stone. It's
also noteworthy that this was the first time the public heard many of
the songs that would become so beloved in the classic film. Please note
that most of the behind the scenes stories heard are not accurate to
life.
