Who's your favorite character? Oh, well, Jeremy Piven as Ari Gold is probably my number one.
He's been on this show and he blew my mind.
He's the man. He's a Chicago guy. So I got to know him very well. Oh, so you know him? Yeah, I know him well. And Vince Chase obviously isn't probably my favorite.

What is Josh Giddey's first job experience?
Music, what are you listening to?
A lot of rap, hip-hop, R&B. A lot of guys near me listen to the same stuff. I bet they do. Yeah. Favourite holiday destination?
Ooh. Hawaii. Hawaii. Yeah. Yeah, nice. Nice. Are you a big wave rider on the North Shore? No, I don't surf. I need to learn. I want to learn. You're quite tall for surfing. Bucket list destination? Haven't been, love to go. I would love to go to Greece.
That's somewhere I've always wanted to go.
I could see you in Greece. All right. Who is the best player you've played against? Probably LeBron. LeBron. What is it like playing against LeBron and did you pinch yourself?
First time, yeah. Like it's one of those moments where that's a guy I grew up idolizing and looking up to and then you're on the court. And also any of those guys like Steph, Kevin Durant, any of those guys I grew up playing with on video games and on 2K and watching them on TV, they were guys I always idolized. So yeah, anytime I'm playing against guys like that, it's pretty surreal.
That's bizarre that you're playing a video game against a bloke and then you're actually playing against him. Right. I know. It's crazy. Best teammate you've played with?
Shea Gilchrist Alexander MVP he's probably going to win him again this year so yeah him what separates him well there's a lot of things I think how hard he works that's probably the number one anytime I went back to the gym he was in there he's always working out he's always getting extra reps and I think how like he's a superstar but he's the most humble superstar I've ever been around and he wants to make everyone around him better so like when you have a guy like that who's leading the child for a team that's why they're so successful that's why they win championships and that's why he's going to win another MVP this year podcast do you listen to them
