Did you know that Anchorman was almost a very different movie? And that it was kind of based on a true story, maybe, a little?

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.
