A future first ballot hall of famer, CP’s storied basketball career from Wake Forest to the NBA to Olympic gold medals to being a 12x All-star to leadership as union President to trailblazing the fight against social injustices while creating a legacy far beyond the court, truly makes Chris Paul one of the most impactful athletes of our time.

Opening up about these moments, sharing how he’s celebrated the good and learned from the bad, dealt with the heart aches of loss, injury, trades and the passing of his friend Kobe Bryant, Chris doesn’t shy away from answering tough questions and setting the record straight on rumors over the years and giving us a court side seat to his 18+ years of evolving as a man and teammate to earn the respect and carry on making the name on the back of his jersey one we will never forget.

Reflecting on childhood moments that helped shape him as the man he is today, Chris emotionally remembers the strength and work ethic he learned at an early age from his grandfather who he tributes so much of his growth and success to. Scoring 61 points after his grandfather’s passing in his honor seemed serendipitous to the story of family and the foundation he would continue to build upon as his career and life evolved. Recognizing how fortunate he was to grow up with both his parents and maintain a close bond, Chris has prided himself in always being a hands on dad and takes that job the most serious and with the most joy.

And of course Channing couldn’t let CP slide without asking him about the infamous Banana Boat photos that surfaced years ago…definitely don’t want to miss this one!

There were lots of cheers but also some tears as Ryan, Channing and Fred acknowledged the reflection and recognition of the journey. The words exchanged, stories shared and the emotions opened up to a very honest and vulnerable conversation about life as men, fathers, providers and just everyday humans who struggle with things too.

Ryan is very candid about his experiences in broadcasting and what motivated him to get to a level he's at now and how being recognized was rewarding but putting the hard work in everyday is the true reward. He openly shares his journey and some of the moments that helped shape his career after football. Fred and Channing talk about some of the things they have learned from Ryan and also take a trip down memory lane about their favorite off camera Pivot moments. Definitely have some laughs and talk about the evolution of the show and them as men over the past year. As they talk about their families, they lead into the discussion about parenting and a story Kim Kardashian shared about how she cries herself to sleep some nights questioning herself as a mom. Channing who was raised by a single mom, weighs in on it as Ryan offers his perspective as a father and someone raised in a two parent household as Fred's story is different being raised by his grandma,

As the conversation is winding down, Ryan asks Fred how he's doing with him first answering "I'm good", then there is a moment of silence followed by tears and eyes filling up as Fred discloses some personal struggles he is dealing with and Channing follows up with some of his own thoughts. A very powerful conversation today between men, brothers and friends.
