Benjy Bronk is an American television and radio personality, writer, and actor who has a net worth of $500 thousand. Benjy Bronk was hired as one of shock-jock Howard Stern's interns in 1998, and he worked his way up to a compensated position within the show and was promoted to pre-interviewing and helping vet guests.

In 2000, Benjy received an in-studio slot next to writers Fred Norris and Jackie Martling and subsequently became well-known for writing jokes for Stern 'on-the-spot.'

In his self-penned bio, Benjy claims to have turned down several modeling contracts "…preferring to dive deeper into the world of interpretive dance, comedy and music." On IMDb, Bronk is credited as a writer on "Howard Stern" (2005) and "Howard Stern on Demand" (2006–2012). As an actor, he has appeared in the TV movies "Supertwink" (2006), "Sharknado 2: The Second One" (2014), "Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!"

Career

In 1998, Bronk took a job as an intern on "The Howard Stern Show." He eventually worked his way up to a paid position that involved conducting pre-interviews of the program's guests and finding articles Robin Quivers could use for her newscasts. In 2000, Benjy received an in-studio position, sitting alongside writers Fred Norris and Jackie Martling and writing jokes on the spot. Martling left "The Howard Stern Show" the following year, and Bronk continued writing in-studio jokes alongside Norris. Benjy kept working in this role after the show moved to Sirius in early 2006. That year Bronk made his acting debut in the TV movie "Supertwink," which was written and directed by his "Howard Stern Show" colleagues Sal Governale and Richard Christy. In 2014, he appeared in the Syfy movie "Sharknado 2: The Second One," and he followed it with roles in "Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!" (2015), "Sharknado 4: The 4th Awakens" (2016), "Sharknado 5: Global Swarming" (2017), and "The Last Sharknado: It's About Time" (2018). Benjy guest-starred on the soap opera "The Bold and the Beautiful" in 2019.

From 2011 to 2015, Benjy was in an on-again, off-again relationship with Elisa Jordana. The duo used to perform as Benjelisa, and they appeared on FOX, Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell, MTV, E!, and VH1. After they split up for good, Bronk agreed to support Jordana for the next year, and he told Howard Stern in April 2015 that he had given Elisa more than $30,000. Jordana later became engaged to actor/comedian Andy Dick. During a September 2022 episode of "The Howard Stern Show," Benjy revealed that he had lost 170 pounds.
