You don't find many as talented as the hilarious Deon Cole between acting, directing, and comedy. We got up with the Chicago comedy legend to talk about his role as Don King in the Michael movie and the current state of comedy. Deon had us rolling with stories about getting security called on him at the Roots Picnic, the time Idris Elba pistol whipped him on the set of The Harder They Fall, and watching DeRay Davis's evolution up close. Few guests had us laughing quite like Deon.

Coco Crisp joins Matt and Chris Young for a conversation with one of the most versatile and underrated center fielders of his generation. The 2007 World Series champion played 15 seasons across Cleveland, Boston, Oakland, and Kansas City and his journey to get there was anything but straightforward.

Coco opens up about growing up in Inglewood during the 90s and how a near-robbery involving his father and a stray hubcap became the moment that changed his family's life forever. He talks about his career progression, starting as a shortstop, moving to the outfield and becoming one of the premier defenders of his era.

He dives deep into his time in Boston, explaining what it was like to step in and fill Johnny Damon's place. He retells the story of his all out brawl with James Shields and the Tampa Bay Rays in 2008. Finally, Coco recalls his time in Oakland and the end of his career in Cleveland where he fell just short of a World Series Championship in his final MLB game.
