Matinee Heroes

Matinee Heroes is a podcast dedicated to exploring hero cinema - from adventurers, heroes, and superheroes; from Jedi to buddy cops; from the Wild West, to the distant past, to futures both hopeful and dystopian, from ancient lands to the deepest reaches of outer space. In a time when we need heroes more than ever, Alan and Craig will try to understand just what makes our cinematic heroes tick, and how we can use that heroism in our everyday life.

NORMA RAE

This week's scheduled episode has been interrupted with a special message from Craig and Alan as they try and explain the SAG-AFTRA WGA strike and why it's important to take a stand to help these important unions.

Donate to the Entertainment Community Fund, which assists all entertainment workers affected by the strike.

On this special @sagaftra @WGAWest support episode,  Alan and Craig go back into the Patreon archives to 2019 and discuss the lack of physical media, poor working conditions, the timelessness of Sally Fields and the movie "Norma Rae" on this week's Matinee Heroes!
