This Episode we will discuss some of the similarities between Ron Burgundy's character in "Anchorman," and Philidelphia anchorman Mort Crim and his interactions with the first network Anchorwoman Jessica Savitch.
We talk about how your favorite anchorman was almost cut entirely from the movie by the studio and not for the reasons that you would think.
