John talks about being friends with Michael Jordan, going out to bars with him, the great questions he has asked Michael like who was the toughest person he played against, witnessing a funny moment between Kobe and Jordan, choosing Jack Black for his breakout role in High Fidelity, his new show “Utopia,” and he has a message for Bernie Sanders supporters about voting in the 2020 election.
