Episode # 31

Dorothy's Electric Shock Treatment:
 The Hidden Meaning/Memories of "Returning to Oz"

As we are winding down and closing out the radio show, we join Aaron Pacentine alongside Celia Foster yet again for another exciting episode of "RETURNING TO OZ". This time we we answer a question from one of the Oz fans who wrote in and was wondering about the story behind Dorothy's electric shock treatment. In this episode learn about Dorothy's electric shock treatments and learn the history and origin on how the machine used in the film, "RETURN TO OZ" was actually a real machine used many, many years ago in the 1900s around the time period when the film was actually set! We also talk about some of the past episodes and remember who had influenced us the most in the past with the shows, thus we credit and thank Aaron Schultz for his hard work and investment in the show and the knowledge he has been able to bring out not only in the many episodes he has been able to be a part of but all the hard work that comes out so clearly and accurately on his wonderful web site, dedicated to "RETURN TO OZ" at WaltDisneysReturnToOz.com  Thank you Aaron for your help and keeping the magic and legacy alive of this film.
