Show Notes
OUR PODCASTING STUDIO SMELLS OF RICH MAHOGANEY AND WE HAVE MANY LEATHER BOUND RECORDS! 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 I was most familiar with 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 Anchorman. It was a real gift to have him on as a guest and he was very gracious with his time and with our shenanigans.
We open with our usual gimmicks and conversation, and the usual WACK AND ON TRACK. I don't think we discuss anything too important to link to other than of course his new band, TOWN LIAR, who is awesome and you should click through and check out ASAP. Benny also has two podcasts of his own you should subscribe to right away; GOING OFF TRACK and THE TUNE-UP
Thanks again to Benny for being awesome and to all of you for checking out the show! Don't forget to tell a friend and find us across the internet.
You already know this but just a reminder that we appreciate you so so much!

More from Cinepunx
You can hardly believe it but those stalwart boys of Cinepunx are back! On this explosive new episode we get into it on two classic films we should have seen already, but somehow had not: Apocalypse Now and Platoon. We specifically watched the redux edition of Apocalypse Now if that matters to you, which I had not seen before now. Despite some reservations about the style of these movies, some of the narrative decisions, and the method they were made, we were mostly blown away by these movie.
NEW EPISODE IS HERE! Join us as we explore one of the greatest directors of the 20th Century, Yasujiro Ozu by discussing his most famous film, Tokyo Story.
COME AT YAH WITH A BRAND NEW EPISODE!
BACK TOGETHER AND IT FEELS SO GOOD! Hey friends, welcome to our new episode as we check in on the cinema of today! Basically, we are working to try and record more, and I would LOVE to blame Josh but in reality scheduling has been hard for both of us. Episode is still super good, so no worries, but yes, it is a bit of a catch up so we have something to put out. Still love you though
