This is the first episode where ben was on coke, the 2nd one being the roast of tom brady

Al seems to wear the same clothes all the time.

Sort of defeats the purpose to have HBO -- which is not tied to network standards -- cut off two guests with a set time limit. The beauty of podcasts, now you can talk for 2 hours and 33 minutes and 4 seconds if you want to.

Olllllll Billy Red taint!

Classic interview Nas and KD salute brothers just the mind frame the perspective of how you think is a special gift that y'all mastered ✊🏀✊

And then years later Billy balls was right, you got players wearing pink jerseys during warm-ups, pride colour flags on their sticks or jerseys as well, it’s ridiculous

I'd rather watch a bad hockey game than a good football game. Leave hockey to hockey people.

Put a chick in it and make her gay!!

KD that's the only move I didn't understand when you went to golden state because you are too great to team up with them even though you was best player on the team fasho 💯✌️

Salute kings ✊

Another classic fasho salute to the OG nas and future Hall of famer KD! ✊💯

Salute OG nas and big homie kD classic interview fasho 💯✌️

Gotta sit by the ice. It's great when they check each other right there. They fight for the puck and you really feel a part of it.

He’s not drunk, this is just how we talk in MA

*You wouldn't be the first to lose it* 😂😂😂😂😂

Bob is a very little person in stature. He could've never played football at the peewee level. Small people can be very athletic. Bob isn't one of them.

Imagine experiencing the same thing but on the set of There Will be Blood.

I can't imagine the Bruins or the Flyers wearing pink. 2023 - Hold my beer.

We really need the 2 Podfathers to reunite. A home and home. Joe on Bill’s and Bill on Joe’s. The world needs it.

fast forward 7 years since this video. less fighting. suspensions for legal checks. flyers and bruins are not only wearing pink but also rainbows. sounds like the nhl is all about revenue and could care less about the game.

we need big boys and big hits again.

lmao dang well that was fun

I don't follow any sport anywhere... But if Bill has an issue of any kind with any sport, I wanna know about it.

7.5 years ago and the situation has only gotten worse so fucking sick and tired of all these ridiculously stupid looking jerseys infiltrating sports across the board. NFL is bad. NBA, NHL, and MLB are even worse

Watching this interview at the dawn of 2024, so seven and a half years later everything they have said here has aged like wine. Absolutely on point almost a decade later.

Bill killed this segment this is his element

Everything that is wrong with the NHL came into the game after 1993 when Betteman took over as commissioner (loss of 2 Canadian teams, too many new teams, less fights and hits, less offence, etc…)

Fighting is what drives most fans out of the game, once they grow up.

You wanna fix it? It's simple. Make hockey equipment and the it self sport more accessible for everyone. The cheapest hockey equiment for a youth can set back a family nearly 3k. Its hard

One thing they need to do is put more games on major broadcast networks. I'm a huge Nashville Predators fan and I haven't been able to see a single game on TV this year because all the games are on Bally Sports (cable) or require you to pay $20 a month to watch the games on their app. I used to watch the games all the time, but I got rid of cable earlier this year. One thing you notice about the NFL is that they have tons of games on regular broadcast TV.

This clip makes me feel a little sad for Jordan. Gretzky has the luxury of being so carefree with his public persona while Mr Jordan feels the need to be so careful almost all the time. I can sort of begin to understand why… and it’s in part a shame.

"wesley morris" is neither an "Alien Superstar," an "Allen Superstar," or a superstar of any sort. Discuss amongst himselves. Then book 'im, Don&O. 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🇺🇲🇺🇳🇺🇲🇺🇳🇺🇲

2 jab pushing sellouts. 3 counting the NHL. Karma is coming.

Wayne is so right --- Hockey players are GREAT to Hockey fans.

Ben Simmons, luv ya bruh but I think you meant to say the NBA has ‘imploded’ the past 5 years? I know the league is your career, and rightfully so! 👏👍But my man, we need your voice to help the league get back to being watchable for guys like us, Bill! I’m 44, I’ve made several attempts and gave up on the NBA only this year. I’m open to change and evolution, but this NBA?! It’s just plain disrespectful besides about a dozen players…😢💔

One of these guys is a hall of fame basketball player. The other couldn’t dribble or shoot a basketball to save his life. Why are they even discussing this???

Did Simmons mention the '86 Celtics?

The funniest part of the NHL selling out to “woke” DEI initiatives is that they’re misdiagnosing their growth problem, which has always been the barriers of entry for young people. Hockey is the hardest popular sport for kids to get together and play. You can do some semblance of the other major sports almost anywhere, but the same can’t be said of hockey.

Wow bill simmoms said something nice about LeBron James lol

Ben is as correct as his drunk

The interviewer is very clearly drunk

Bill talks like he's giving a graduation speech. Terrible delivery, zero charisma.

this monologue is so bad

classic interview salute brothers..

I would pay just to see Brock Lesnar vs Daniel Cormier or Jon Jones in a pure wrestling match

Are we sure Wilmore is a comedian?

“No matter what ______ does my top5 will NEVER change!” I love Chuck but this is dumb AF.

I still can’t believe this conversation happened. It sucks Bill’s show failed but he became a much better podcaster because of it and The Ringer is killing it.

Just say it... the league doesn't give a rat's ass about the Canadian teams. They'd actually prefer it if the Canadian teams didn't even make the playoffs

Just saw this all video how Michael’s is light years ahead of Costas.
