Jeff & Ryan welcome Greg Izay to MASH Matters! Greg’s mother, Connie, was the on-set medical technical advisor on M*A*S*H. We remember Connie through Greg’s stories about her beginnings in the industry, how she helped actors look like real surgeons, her long career behind the scenes, and her brief moments ON screen. Plus – the M*A*S*H/Smokey & the Bandit crossover you’ve been waiting for!
