  • @mrclutch2001
    The satisfaction of hearing Chuck swear freely while talking hoops is a gift that keeps on giving.
  • @bgbambino
    This young generation has no idea how good Chuck was. He won a MVP award playing Power Forward at 6’5.
  • Thanks for just letting him speak, no interrupting. This is by far his best interview.
  • I've waited 168 episodes for this man to come on here and it didn't disappoint!
  • You can see how they defer to the OGs. No interruptions or disrespect. Amazing job guys 💪🏾
  • @le9335
    I freaking love Chuck. Without a doubt my favorite athlete celebrity. Top human. Hilarious, smart, kind, generous, empathetic, genuine, honest, successful! Guy has it all no joke. The TNT show is can’t miss tv with those guys. Looking great Chuck! Barnes and Jack also great dudes. All the best to them as well!
  • @Rickie_Speed
    Chuck is one of the few celebrities who doesn’t let anyone control him. He remains sooo human. That deserves so much respect.
  • @chrisr.7032
    Chuck is the most entertaining person in sports TV history. just ask a question and watch magic. dude keeps u engaged and has natural humor.
  • @Truelivejayy
    The rawness of Chuck I’m all for it. A champion in my eyes 💯💯💯
  • I love how Matt and Stephen let there guests speak and enjoy hearing what there guests have to say. This was one the best ones so far!! Keep up the good work !!
  • @raya7842
    For people that never saw Sir Charles play, dude was a monster and dominated the game as an undersized power forward .
  • @jjcastilllo
    It’s great that you guys got Charles Barkley to interview with. He’s just a funny guy to watch on NBA on TNT but even a greater person when others meet him.
  • @floravb
    Chuck being uninterrupted and unfiltered is fabulous! I could listen to his stories all day! Thanks for this great interview!
  • Chuck is the realest. A real legend when it comes to keeping it 100.
  • @yeaboi8465
    We got to continue to give Charles his flowers, even when he eventually retires and leaves TNT. There's never been one like Charles and never will there be another.
  • The amount of appreciation and gratitude Chuck has for different people that shaped his life is inspiring to see. Even more so considering he went on the become one of the biggest legends in basketball history.
