The Other Tom Green Show | Episode 6 with Jim Benemann
In this episode of ‘The Other Tom Green Show’, Tom welcomes longtime Denver news anchor and close friend Jim Benemann for an unfiltered, funny, and heartfelt conversation about a lifetime in broadcasting — from his early days as a young reporter in Colorado to his recent retirement and transition to living in the mountains.
The two reflect on the evolution of local television — from Nielsen diaries and newsroom camaraderie to today’s pressures of digital immediacy and social media. Jim shares deeply personal memories from covering tragic stories like Columbine and the Boulder King Soopers shooting, explaining how journalists balance professionalism with humanity.
They also look back on Jim’s winding path from Chicago to CSU, his early TV jobs (including working with Bill O’Reilly), and his eventual rise to the anchor chair in Denver. Plus, the conversation detours into vintage sports talk — from Bobby Hull and Ernie Banks to the old Mile High Stadium, Doug Moe, and the Rockies’ need for fresh leadership.
