"There was a time, a time before cable, when the local anchorman reigned supreme, when people believed everything they heard on TV. This was an age when only men were allowed to read the news. And in San Diego, one anchorman was more man than the rest. His name was Ron Burgundy. He was like a god walking amongst mere mortals. He had a voice that could make a wolverine purr and suits so fine, they made Sinatra look like a hobo. In other words, Ron Burgundy was the balls."
After recording an episode of Domestic Pints ONLY (available on all podcast platforms), Tom and John pivoted to discuss a movie which recently celebrated its 20th anniversary: ANCHORMAN! We tried to not just devolve into only reciting quotes (to mixed success), but along the way we discussed some background on the film and our first memories of it. Before that, we did a brief rundown of some new releases and talked about what we watched recently.
We'll return very soon with another anniversary episode, chatting STAR WARS EPISODE ONE: THE PHANTOM MENACE
