The boys are back to kick off February with another exclusive interview. On episode 168, Basketball Hall-of-Fame member and 1993 NBA MVP, Charles Barkley, sits down with Matt & Stak to talk ALL things hoops. Chuck discusses his relationship with MJ, his time with the Suns, the impact Magic Johnson and Larry Bird had on the league, and his transition to the media world. Plus, he shares fun stories from INSIDE THE NBA, talks current-day NBA, his new deal with Turner Sports, and much more.
