In this episode of 20 Things You Didn't Know About, we’re skipping down the Yellow Brick Road into the glittering, chaotic, and downright strange world behind one of the most iconic films in movie history: The Wizard of Oz.

Released in 1939, The Wizard of Oz became a cultural touchstone across generations—but behind the technicolor magic lies a trail of unbelievable trivia, backstage drama, and Hollywood secrets that are every bit as fantastical as the Land of Oz itself.

This episode also includes a special countdown:
🎭 Top 3 Things You Didn’t Know About The Wiz — the funky, dazzling 1978 reimagining that brought Dorothy to Harlem and added soul to the Emerald City.

Whether you’re a lifelong fan or just realized the Scarecrow doesn’t have a gun in your version, this episode will change how you see the magic behind the curtain.
