Cinepunx Episode 179: ANCHORMAN w/ Benny Horowitz (THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM, TOWN LIAR)

OUR PODCASTING STUDIO SMELLS OF RICH MAHOGANEY AND WE HAVE MANY LEATHER BOUND RECORDS!<br /> j/k We don’t have a studio, but also WELCOME TO A BRAND NEW EPISODE OF CINEPUNX! On this truly incredible episode we welcome Josh’s friend and now MY FRIEND TOO, Benny Horowitz who you may know from the band The Gaslight Anthem, Town Liars, either of his two awesome podcasts, and a plethora of other bands but who I was most familiar with from his years of booking the legendary Manville Elk’s Lodge. He came to us with the idea of discussing the iconic Will Ferrell classic Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy and how could we not jump with joy? So, if you are at all like me, you might be surprised that Benny is a guest on this episode. Here is the thing friends, Josh Alvarez is just an amazing person and he just says to me hey, Benny wants to come on the show. Well, I had no idea who he meant, cause I don’t know anyone named Benny, but lo and behold he meant the drummer of The Gaslight Anthem who it turns out booked a ton of the shows that were so important to me at the Manville Elk’s Lodge? Like in one text thread Josh just exploded my brain. So then we get on the recording with Benny, who Josh said was awesome, and it turns out the dude is like one of the best guests I think we have ever had? Incredible! When Josh delivers, he really fucking delivers. Huge thanks to Benny for coming on the show and sharing his love for and insights into Anchorm
