Kenny is fresh off releasing his new book Talk of Champions: Stories of the People Who Made Me: A Memoir, with chapters reflecting on the extraordinary people who taught him invaluable life lessons, including Michael Jordan, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, Dean Smith, and Charles Barkley. The crew also digs into the secret sauce behind one of the most popular studio shows of all time, including behind-the-scenes stories, offseason dynamics, and unforgettable pop culture moments.
