| 0:00.0 | Hi this is Steve. If you listen to the Cenophiles you might have heard me talk about my theory |
| 0:05.8 | that no matter how successful they are, comedy actors only have a few years on top. Eddie Murphy |
| 0:12.4 | absolutely dominated the mid-80s. Adam Sandler made hit after hit in the |
| 0:16.3 | late 90s and no one was making funnier movies in the 2000s than Will Farrell. |
| 0:21.1 | And in my opinion, the best of those movies is 2004's Anchor Man, the legend of Ron Burgundy. |
| 0:28.0 | There is something so ridiculously unique about Will Farrell's style of comedy. |
| 0:32.0 | It's not just as talent for creating over-the-top |
| 0:34.2 | characters. It's not just that he's being gloriously and intentionally silly. |
| 0:38.1 | It's that he knows he's being silly and we know he's being silly and he knows |

| 0:56.0 | impossibly hilarious Steve Correll. And if that's not enough, we can add a whole bunch of guest |
| 1:01.4 | appearances that I'll let you discover on your own. |
| 1:04.3 | In case you haven't figured it out, I really like this movie and if you haven't seen it, I insist you |
| 1:08.7 | go right now to Cineophiles.net where you can buy or stream the movie through Amazon Prime. |
| 1:14.4 | Then come back on Friday to hear John and I discuss one of the funniest films of the last decade. |
| 1:19.5 | Will Farrell's Ankerman, the legend of Ron Burgundy. |
| 1:23.4 | I'm not a baby, I'm a man! I am an anchor man! |
| 1:28.0 | You are not a man, you are a big fat joke. |
| 1:30.8 | I'm a man who discovered the wheel and built the Eiffel Tower out of metal and brawn. |
