When Geek'd Con rolled into town last year, I was really excited for two things.

1. Interviewing Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca).

Seriously, interviewing Chewbacca is one of the coolest things a human being can do while on earth.

2. The voice actors.

I was so pumped to see the guys who played the voices I've been listening to since I was a kid. That was a surreal experience, and those guys are so freakin' talented. Here's a clip from the gang at Geek'd Con in 2015.

 

 

One of those men featured at Geek'd Con is Maurice Lamarche. You may not know the name but you certainly know the voice. LaMarche began on Inspector Gadget and went on to Dennis the Menace, Popeye and Son and The Real Ghostbusters. After The Real Ghostbusters, LaMarche became a regular mainstay of the voiceover industry appearing in such shows as Tiny Toon Adventures, GI Joe, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: The Animated Series, Taz-Mania, Where's Waldo, The Little Mermaid, Batman: The Animated Series, and Bonkers before landing perhaps his most recognized role in 1993 as The Brain on Animaniacs (and later its spin-off show Pinky and the Brain).

Maurice has gotten attention lately for his incredibly burping skills, of all things. He was at an event in New York this past weekend where he demonstrated how to perform the perfect burp.
