A FEW GOOD MEN

Lt. Daniel Kaffee is a military lawyer defending two U.S. Marines charged with killing a fellow Marine at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba. Although Kaffee is known for seeking plea bargains, a fellow lawyer, Lt. Cdr. JoAnne Galloway, convinces him that the accused marines were most likely carrying out an order from a commanding officer. Kaffee takes a risk by calling Col. Nathan R. Jessep to the stand in an effort to uncover the conspiracy.

Craig is joined by guest co-host Derek McCaw (@FanboyPlanet on twitter) and guest Bryan Richards (@FirewaterCast on twitter) to discuss acting well when you don’t fit the part, why craig didn’t join the military, realistic lawyer movies and the movie “A Few Good Men” on this week’s Matinee Heroes!

IN MEMORIAM: KEVIN CONROY 1955-2022

Today, November 11th, we all got the news that the one and true Batman, Kevin Conroy passed.

We’re going something we haven’t done before and hope we don’t have to do again for a while, We’re replaying a episode we did on The Mask of the Phantasm that included my panel with him from San Francisco Comic Con on June 8th, 2018.  I was fortunate enough to meet Kevin a few times, I just talked him in December at the LA Comic Con and he was always gracious, he loved being known for Batman, He loved saying “I am Vengeance” but more importantly, you can always tell he really loved the fans.

Thank you, Kevin, for sharing yourself with us.
