The Wizard of Oz - Past, Present, and Future (with Paeter Frandsen)
Episode 125
Sunday, 5 October, 2025

🎩 Exploring the World of Oz – Books, Movies & Future Adaptations 🌪️ In this episode, I’m joined by special guest Paeter Frandsen of Spirit Blade Productions, who has just released a brand-new audiobook recording of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum**. Together, we take a deep dive into the magical land of Oz—past, present, and future! We chat about: ✨ Our experiences reading the original Wizard of Oz books 🎬 The iconic 1939 Wizard of Oz movie 🌀 Return to Oz and its darker take on Baum’s world 💚 Oz the Great and Powerful 🎭 Wicked, and how its popularity has reshaped modern Oz fandom 🎶 The excitement around the upcoming adaptation Wicked: Part One (Wicked for Good) We also share our hopes and ideas for future adaptations of Baum’s novels and discuss how renewed interest in the Oz franchise could open the door to new faithful retellings. Whether you're a lifelong Oz fan, love the classic movie, are obsessed with Wicked, or curious about untapped corners of the Baum universe, this conversation is for you! 🔊 Check out Paeter Frandsen’s audiobook of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNC7Qz41mx8 or download it from https://www.patreon.com/posts/44479037 Find Paeter at https://Christiangeekcentral.com 💬 Join the conversation!
