Shaq paid for my grandmother's furniture he saw her in the store in Las Vegas and furnished her house didn't know her but he said she reminded him of his grandmother a awesome man of honor
Hahaha 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
He bought me and my family everything we own
Cap
Shaq bought me condoms once at 7-11
I love Shaq the person much MORE than Shaq the basketball player.That story made me cry,re-enforces my faith in humanity.
PBD is so well-versed as an interviewer.
Absolutely, one of the best in terms of steering the conversations.
He’s one of the best interviewer’s but he does podcasts now…. Need more interviews……. When you Advantage you have to take a advantage of it
The best.
Agree, love him ❤️

So glad Shaq agreed to do this interview.
"I would have been Shaq" Love how he was able to discern what his priorities are and realize what his strengths and weaknesses are. We aren't all built the same.
My wife and I enjoy Shaq! Such a good man to other people. I was always a Shaq guy, even over Kobe, and I wrestled in college, I know nothing about basketball. Shaq wasn't afraid to be himself. God bless Shaq!
You gotta commend a guy who has so many workers under him and he’s just living out his dreams of interacting with some of the greats with his kid along side him
Remember Jesus loves you and died for our sins .Give your life to him before it’s too late
@@CashCollecta lol you’re not well traveled I see
@@Visiondrivenllc did u give your life to Him?
Love how Shaq sees that Patrick`s boy is bored and fussing and decides to keep him engaged in the conversation . Great guy Shaq !
Shaq is genuinely one of the GREATEST EVER.
Best Center ever.
Shaq what a man. Love the way he helps random people he meets throughout his day
Man, Shaq's answer was exactly what I thought when I heard patricks question to Kobe.
Gosh, this interview is priceless-respect & Much love to Patrick & Team Valuetainment.
This is probably the best podcast I've seen. The fans and arena vibes are unmatched. Thank you PBD
Simp
Shaq is one of the reasons why I decided to immigrate to the USA. Shaq, I don’t know if you’d read my comment, but I look up to you like a big brother. And I hope one day I can have you in my home on a state of the art Shawerma. God bless!
Was invited in this event. Has nothing bad to say about this event, and this organization. It was a phenomenal night. Shaq was great speaker. Matt and Patrick showcase great leadership within their organization.
But how much it cost
@@virajbhosle5 why that matter are you paying nigga?
@@virajbhosle5he was invited, so free
I love this guy.. for being everything nobody else ever could be as far as 7'2 an all-time athlete and business entrepreneur he is so insanely relatable it's sick
I dont think he knows anxiety thats hy he is so successful
Really started to follow PBD the past 1-2 years - currently travelling in Korea at the minute but really looking forward to catching up with the recent interviews, ESPECIALLY this one 👌🏼
Shaq is one of those guys that you think are dumb, but turned out they are much smarter than most of people ) Incredibly physically gifted player, but also a great and smart man. Respect ✊
nope, hes a mason bro
Shaq is genuinely one of the GREATEST EVER.. Patrick is a world class interviewer..
I love shaq. He’s allways been a humble decent human being. He was raised by a sergeant in the marine core that taught him humility that’s for sure.
I loved this interview. I grew up watching Shaq play ball but never understood how cerebral he is. Lots of depth to this individual. This interview was great!
Chris,watch Shaq's hall of fame SPEECH,it's one of the best I've ever heard.And his auto-bio is GREAT. LOL.
It is very refreshing to see you and Shaq made this happen. I’m glad that the issues from before are in the past. Amazing interview!!
What issues? Lol
@@donjosue1000 You never heard how shaq hated pbd for asking kobe if shaq would be a better player if he had a better diet?
@@InappropriateShorts Shaq is petty af but he makes some great content
@@InappropriateShorts he's HIGHLY sensitive (which I am too so I'm not knocking him..) but his ego is his downfall imo
@@Tomekkplk He would've been better with a good diet.All those stomach issues/strains wouldn't have happened.
Shaq is pure class , humility and a gentleman … it is always a pleasure to hear him speak .
dang shaq just became my fav nba player of all time.. what a great person he is.. cant believe i am just now seeing this interview
This is probably my favorite interview next to the Kobe interview. Both of them have SO MUCH intelligence, and learned wisdom to share its immeasureable
Greatest interviewer of all time
For real 💤💤💤💤
He makes you have a little bit of faith in people with his humble generous behaviour in times when I have very little for society. Great man Shaq!! ❤
PBD is such a phenomenal role model. Kids in high school, pay attention to this guy and the knowledge he puts out with his content. You’ve helped out a lot PBD!
I just liked before I even heard one word. I already knew it was going to be a banger!! I mean Shaq and PBD are always hitting home runs whenever they’re doing interviews!! Both always spitting jewels 💎!!
After that resume, all I can say is; there is work to be done 🐐
Shaq is oozing with Charisma. He's good at playing with the crowd.
Yes. Because he can speak big without bragging. He really really put in the work.
@@brokoen7288shaq lazy stop it
PBD has the best damn intro videos for their guest! Music, production, sound bites.. Intros on this pod is legendary, gets me absolutely pumped for the interview that follows! Love this podcast I've learned so much.
Patrick you are truly an amazing person, I dont know how I came across your channel....but I'm glad I have. 1st interview I ever saw was with Michael Franzese & I've been hooked every since. Salute brother.💜
Shaq is such a stand up guy so humble and down to earth I love this guy
Thank you, just thank you so much. As a 92’ baby raised a Laker fan, this is a beautiful thing to be able to listen to a childhood hero & you (an inspiration on social media) is so awesome you have no idea. He was right, Kobe is my #1, and rightfully so. Super Man validated my and many others thoughts. I appreciate Shaq & Pat for this. 💪
DIE HARD BORN LAKERS FAN! 87 BABY RAISED IN ERA OF KOBE & SHAQ. 2 OF THE BEST ATHLETES & PEOPLE ON THE PLANET. LOVE EVERYTHING ABT THIS AND GIVES ME SUCH A NOSTALGIC AND MOTOVATIONAL ENERGY ON THIS SUNDAY. THANK YOU GUYS FOR THIS
I'm an Independent Latino. Thank you Patrick!!! 26:17 Wow!! I love it! 29:29 The "Eyes Spanking", LOVE IT!! 32:49 I agree.
Patrick the access you are providing your team are legendary!! Much respect PBD!
Any guy who loves his mama like this is my guy
You know many times Shaq is portrayed as being a goof or perhaps kind of dumb. However, if you do your research on Shaq, the man is incredibly intelligent, driven, and extremely involved in charity and giving back. Shaq is an incredible guy and I wish they would do more to promote that side if the man. Our youth needs to see that sports can create a get venue to attain revenue, but it’s not the end all be all. Our youth needs to know that education, financial education, understanding investments and business are crucial parts of acquiring wealth and maintaining it. You can come in to a fortune or acquire sums of money, but retaining it and increasing that amount is the real challenge. Many of us can learn so much from Shaq. This interview is fantastic because it actually sheds light on these concepts
I truly love this guy. Not the fame, not the money, jusr who he is as a man, is who i want My son to be!
Patrick is a world class interviewer.
Best interview I’ve seen! What a pleasure to watch! I wish it never ended!!
Man i missed these interviews. PBD is one of the best interviewers iv'e ever seen
Man, what a sensational interview. Patrick, hats off as usual. Shaq is my all time favorite baller. He's literally the total package.
The package is missing shooting fam he was great but was too below average in shooting to be considered the total package. Very big flaw in shaqs game
If he could hit free throws he would be the best person of all time 😂😂😂
Honor mother and father.
The wisdom here is exponentially valuable!🔥
Shaq is such a class act. What an amazing interview! Shaq is one of my heroes.
The real MVP was Dylan and that couch he averaged 20 rubs 12 pats and 10 pokes . I'm Kidding but excellent interview and flowers given to a great. Man this is a blessing from heaven every second of this interview. Thank you for the light in a dark world
There will NEVER be another Shaq -
I've been listening to the PBD podcast, since the very 1st episode---I think that this may be my favorite episode ever----I loved it so much, that I just listened to it twice!! Thank you, that was fun.
Bro, you actually got this interview!?! Great Job, I was hoping you would since the Kobe interview!
Let's go baby I feel like I'm there this is exactly what I needed this Friday thank you PBD
I would like to thank PBD for making my Friday night happen, I will definitely watch this tonight 🔥🔥
He repeats the same stories on every show and podcast but i can appreciate it
What a fantastic interview! Thanks for sharing it with us! 👏
I love Shaq but dang it! I'm at the end of the interview and just typing this made me choke up and almost turn to pure mush! Much love and respect to you and your mom. If I do half as well as your mother, raising my sons, I will be more blessed than I would know how to handle. Made me cry twice! Ug!
I’ve never seen Shaq in an interview what a stand up guy. I really liked him. PBD class act as always.
Shaq did an interview with the Nelk boys over a year ago
Pat goes from regular KZhead to these fire professionally done events. Even Shaq was like damn pbd ain’t playin here.
PBD, this is your best interview EVER!!! I freaking LOVE Shaq!!!
Love it
I love Brother Shaq, He joined my Boston Celtics, and we loved him. And no Brother O'Neil, is here in my adopted State of Florida ! Straight up, he's a GOOD MAN, AND I love him !
Wow, this is great. Literally two of my favorite people talking about things that 100% matter. :)
Two amazing inspirational men ! Bless u guys 🙏🏼
What a fantastic interview. Muchas gracias PBD!
Pat, you Rock! Shaq, you are an inspiration and a National Treasure. Love you Brother.
Love how Shaq gave Jokic props back in 2020. That aged pretty well.
I would've been Shaq. He's displaying his outstanding work ethic. Kobe & Shaq were aiming to different goals.
Facts 💯
@Hugo Andrade uhh… wuh?
Amazing interview!!! Keep up the amazing content. Great substance
Shaq - life in balance.
Two of the best on one stage, thank you Pat,
I love watching your dreams come true PBD!!!
Shaq is a GREAT guy
Impossible not to love Shaq.
Way to get get both Kobe and Shaq. Legendary work, my friend. Just wrapping up "your next 5 moves" too. Thank you 🙏
I like Shaq. He seems like such a cool dude. I used to see him all over the place in Orlando. You cannot truly appreciate how big he is in real life unless you are next to him.
I really love how Shaq is all about the kids!!! Love that ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Remember when Shaq had beef with PBD over askin Kobe certain questions?!
Yes but Kobe is not here now so s Shaq can make his own truth lol
@@dqreps make or tell
Damn, Shaq is such a cool person. Gonna miss this guy once he’s gone! Thx PBD for another awesome sit down.
Hopefully the big fella is around for a lonnnngggggg time
wtf why you thinking about death
@@yoshipapi7880 This dude thinks hes immortal LMAO, everyone dies before him
DAMN. What an introduction and entrance 🤟
Another dope interview. Incredible stuff 💯
This is SICK!! Looks like a fun atmosphere and nice interview too!
Lock what this man made out of his talent, and then understand what he has acomplished in live! Up to now I have never seen a better example of a person that has all achived and shares so much with people in need. A perfect sample to follow for everybody! I wish you all the best Shaq, and if you still have dreams what i hope I wish all of them come true 100%! You earnd it!
Glad to see yall connected 💪
The production of this is underrated🔥💪🏾
Dude is absolute legend!!! I’ve always looked up to him
Personal and inspirational. Well done!
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!!!
I loved every minute of this interview! Well done PBD and thank you Shaq! The inspiration is intangible!!!!
Something about Dillion being dressed like Patrick and sitting on his lap…made it look like Pat was a ventriloquist. Also the fidgeting was a little distracting, but Patrick was an amazing father with Dillion for letting him sit there anyway. I wouldn’t have had the patience to allow my kid to do that if I was on stage talking to Shaq.
Great Interview!! Shaq is just a different type of human. Always learn something from him.
When PBD asks who can be President, I've always thought Shaq exemplifies all the characteristics of someone I would be proud to call my President. - A kind, generous, and loyal man with stated values - Willing to listen to all sides and make decisions based on his principles (See his conversations on mandates, business closures, presidential candidates, taxes, etc) - A powerful and commanding presence in any situation he is in - A true believer in Capitalism with a proven track record and competence in all realms of the system - A truly charitable man, one that gives to those in need directly and doesn't just funnel his money through a corrupt system to lower his taxes - A man whose family has a service/military background, and has provided service to his community (he is a sheriff) - Has the youth and foresight to understand where technology is heading in the future and has used said technologies himself (Crypto, Virtual Reality, etc) - A proven track record of success in his personal and business ventures, with the capability of managing large groups of people and directing them towards a given goal - Has the platform and credibility + name recognition to stand a chance of realistically winning If Shaq ran 3rd party, he'd have my vote in a heartbeat.
He’s not enough of a scumbag to be president. He’s too good for that job…
You pretty much just described Donald Trump 🤣
I agree 100% and I believe he could and would win if he chose to run. Some would try to destroy him. But they’d be like annoying gnats he’d swat away to get to the goal. Thinking about it, there’s not a single politician past or present that’s as honorable or capable. Shaq for Prez! ✊🏼
You're right man, he spoke up about the BS that started from 2020.
He’s I don’t have word for this awesome man, nothing, but❤for you!
Great interview, Rip mamba.
I love you PBD. Your mindset is electric. Your positivity is just unstoppable
Everyone at my elementary/middle school was completely in awe of Shaq. We loved, revered, and was in awe of him. The man was breaking rims, backboards, support posts, all of which was unheard of (D Dawkins only shattered glass from the side). That shiz blew our minds! He’s the only one that came close to that next-level magic which captivated us kids. Had he stayed in Orlando, I think his legacy would of been even greater. Personally it broke my heart, Penny and him were teammates on Blue Chips then magically teammates again in Orlando. It felt like fate or something. When he went to the Lakers I stopped watching either of them play and gladly returned to the Bulls. To be honest, I stopped being a fan of Lebron when he went to LA as well. That was Magic’s team. They were supposed to create dynasties for the clubs like Mike did for Chicago.
I was there, it was so epic! Thank you PBD!!!
PBD = Interview 🐐
I don't think Tim Duncan would say they "dominated"... GSG... I will say Shaq is one of the best personalities ever in Sports
The Big Fundamental, all the way! GSG!
Great interview so inspiring !
Great one!! Shaq is paying Kobe honor! Loved this podcast!!!
One of the best role models we have today
