The NFL launched this show with the intention “to deepen the fan experience through organic, and authentic conversations.” For the first episode, the guest list featured the stalwarts of LA Rams cornerback, Jalen Ramsey, Actor Jamie Foxx, Rob Lowe, and NFL wide receiver Dez Bryant.
During the episode, the four-time NBA champion suspected that Rams coach Sean McVay was supposedly stealing his ideas to make good use of Jalen Ramsey on the field. However, Ramsey dismissed this with a light-hearted comment. He said, “You know what they saying on Twitter man. They say you be capping.”

Fans believe that LeBron James can sometimes end up speaking a lie or two. This began when James gave a public tribute to the late rapper Takeoff from the Migos trio. James declared he knew the Migos group would become a big entity in the music industry.
Additionally, he stated that he introduced his Miami Heat teams to the music the Migos made. But the issue fans had with this was, he claimed to have done all this in 2010. However, fans were quick to point out that the Migos were only formed in 2011. Looking at this discrepancy, Twitter instantly called LeBron out.
