Yes. He's excited to play the game. I am. All right. What you do-- it's a really difficult game. I ask a question, and you-- [DING] --hit the button and answer. Yes. [AUDIENCE CHATTER] No what? [INAUDIBLE] It's not that. It's, you answer, and then you hit the button. Got it. It's been that long since we've played. And I've corrected every single person. Answer, and then hit the question-- hit the buzzer. OK. But it really doesn't matter, anyway. But-- [CHUCKLES] --here we go. [MUSIC PLAYING] "What's the scariest thing you've ever tried to do?" Scariest thing I ever tried to do. Sing in public. [DING] Did you do it? No. [DING] Well, then you haven't tried to do it. I tried to do it, but I didn't fully co-- I didn't commit. Was it like a karaoke thing? It was like a Broa-- like a play type thing. Not Broadway, but a high-school play-- Oh. --type thing. I see. Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK. So you're saying you don't sing. I do not sing-- OK. --well. OK. Do you want to sing right now to redeem yourself? OK. No. All right. [CHUCKLES] OK, fine. I can't think of what I've done that's the scariest thing I've ever done. Probably coming out. That's the scariest thing I've ever done. OK. Yeah. And it's so well worth it. I mean-- Yeah. --it worked out. Yeah, it was-- Well, it worked out. It's scary. Mm-hmm. All right. "As a kid, who was your first celebrity crush?" Ooh. Halle Berry. [DING] All right. "If you're flipping through the channels, and you see yourself on TV, will you watch?" No. [DING] It's weird. It's weird. And if somebody were to walk into the room and saw me watching myself, they'd be like, oh, what, you just watch yourself all the time? Yeah. And it's like, then you start to pick yourself apart. And like, oh, I remember that take. And that's why I [INAUDIBLE]-- Yeah. Yeah. I know. I get it. All right. "You had a very large mustache during quarantine. Will it return?" [CHUCKLES] It's name is Murphy. Yes. [DING] It will return. It will. Look at-- Yeah. --I didn't want to cut it. No, you should be proud of that. That's-- Tha-- That's some depth on that. Thank you. [CHUCKLES] It's a lot of girth. All right. That's what she said. Yeah, that's what she said. "What's the most rebellious thing you ever did as a teenager?" I swear I hope my mom's not watching this. I think take the car without asking. We went down to this-- there used to be this place called Avenue P in New Jersey where you would street race. Imagine Fast and the Furious but in real life. And I took my dad's car down there to drive-- to race. What kind of car? A BMW-- Oh. A 330. OK. 330Ci. And I burnt out the clutch. Oh, no. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I burnt out the clutch and blamed it on my friend. So yeah, that's what real friends are for, right? Yeah, exactly. Taking the fall for you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. "If you had to change your name, what would you change it to?" I thought about this once. Bakari-- [DING] --my middle name. Bakari. Mm-hmm. I like it. Thanks. So you'd just go by Bakari? Bakari Jordan. OK. I may just start calling you Bakari. That's what my family-- my close family and friends all call me Bakari. So-- Well, then that's what-- --you're in that circle. Yeah. All right. Yeah. "What's the strangest thing that you know way too much about?" Ironing. [DING] Ironing? Mm-hmm. What is there to know about ironing? You just put the thing on the-- right? You just-- I like to iron, versus steaming. Steaming is-- [INAUDIBLE] --so much better. It's not as satisfying. True. There's something about the imperfections. Yeah. It's peaceful [INAUDIBLE]-- Yeah. --the way I like to iron shirts, it's actually buttoned up. You button them first and then iron? Uh-huh. Mm-hmm. And then I do the arms, collar. Yeah. I like it. I like steaming, though. I like vacuuming for that same reason, because it's very-- Mm-hmm. --cathartic. And you clean things. Yeah. Yeah. All right. "What advice would you give your teenage self?" Don't wear basketball shorts underneath your jeans. [DING] You know what I'm talking about. [CHUCKLING] [INAUDIBLE] Here's the thing. I don't know where it started. I don't know why it was a thing. But any hooper or a lot of guys-- yeah, we used to wear basketball shorts under our jeans. So you were ready to play at any time, and you take the jeans off? That's what I'd tell myself. Yeah. Oh, you didn't-- No, no. Yeah, I think it was part of that. Yeah. It was part of that. Yeah, that seems-- there'd be a bunch of-- The smell. --stuff under there. Oh, the smell. Oh yeah, that's bad. I didn't think of the smell. I was just thinking about what it looked like-- Yeah. --because there's a lot of, then, stuff under there. Again, girth. Mm. Yeah. [DING] All right. "What's something that you do that always makes your nephew laugh?" You've just got to stare at him, and you smile. And then you just creep up on him, and he immediately starts running from you and busts out laughing-- Oh. --every time. It never fails. I do that to Portia, and she loves it. [CHUCKLES] "What's one thing you've tried that you'll never do again?" Go to a haunted house. [DING] Oh. I have to send you to a haunted house with-- Mm-mm. --Andy. Mm-mm. "What job would you be terrible at?" Mm. You could work at a dry cleaners. We know that. [CHUCKLES] I would-- nail salon. [DING] Oh, [INAUDIBLE]-- Pedicure-- the feet-- Pedicure? [INAUDIBLE] No, I wouldn't want to do that, either. Yeah. Mm-mm. OK. Hey, Without Remorse is available now on Amazon Prime Video. And that's Michael B. Jordan, everybody.
