Starting in 1922, the Western Association of Motion Picture Advertisers released an annual list of the 13 young women they predicted would be the next big Hollywood stars...
But who were these starlets? How were their images shaped by the media of the time? Just how right were the Wampas... and who the heck do they think they are, anyway?
Delivered by Marg The Old Movie Lady, with her trademark sense of humour and research brought on by intense hyperfocus, this is The Old Movie Lady Podcast: The Wampas Frolic!

In this short but densely packed episode of The Old Movie Lady Podcast, Marg explores the downfall of the Wampas themselves, while also telling you stories of true love (with a stunt man!), an opera singer, fake quadruplets, Ann Rutherford's sister, and more!
