Julius Erving talking about playing with Charles Barkley: “I kept seeing his upside. He was hard-headed. He had something to say about everything. If he didn’t play as good as he can and well as he was capable of playing or whatever, then some of the things he did...

WATCH: Jill Biden says she had to walk out of the room after Kamala Harris pressured Joe Biden to endorse her immediately after dropping out of the 2024 presidential race RITA BRAVER: So he decided that it was- he was going to drop out. JILL BIDEN: That’s right. BRAVER: It was Sunday, July 21st, 2024. Before your husband made the announcement. he called Vice President Harris to tell her what he had decided, and you said almost as soon as he gave her the news, she demanded that he endorse her right away, and he- he, I mean, did you think something was off about that? BIDEN: You know, I'm sure she thought about it. You know it wasn't like a call out of the blue. I'm sure with everything happening at that time it had to cross her mind so I think, um, I think that's what- BRAVER: When you said it was back and forth because she wanted him, um, to endorse her at the same time he announced that he was dropping out and he wanted to just make the announcement of the dropout first, right? BIDEN: Oh yeah, sure. BRAVER: And you said you even walked out of the room because it was- got too tense maybe? BIDEN: Well, it was just, I'm telling you, it was so hard. I mean this is what Joe had worked for all his life. He loved being a statesman. Um, he loved the job of helping the American people and to give it up. I mean Rita, he did it for over 50 years of his life. That's a long time. And so at some point when all of this is going on. It gets a little overwhelming, and yes, I had to walk out.

Denzel Washington’s epic monologue towards the end of Training Day was largely improvised on set. Director Antoine Fuqua was so blown away by his performance, he says he thinks he "forgot to yell cut”. He explains… “That’s Denzel. He was just in his zone. I mean, that was one of those moment...people talk about AI. Those are the moments where you go...it's a great tool. It's gonna be a great tool, I think...but the emotion, and the moment that an actor can bring - you can't predict that. That's something that's just inside of Denzel. And when that came out, I was just like - I hope I got it. I just turned to my operator - who was shaking- I looked over at the guy - I was like, “please tell me you got that.” Because that was the take. That was it. There was no other take - I mean, how do you tell an actor like that, that that wasn't good enough? …He walked over to me, and he just had this look in his eyes. I was like, “you good?” He said, “you good?” I said, “Yeah…” Some of that was in the script, but he flipped it the way he did it. "Putting cases on all you." He kind of added some things in there. And then he just went into a whole other zone with the whole King Kong thing- with Pelican Bay - Denzel started that. That was Denzel. That was him, man. He just kind of lit up, and I think I forgot to yell cut. I was just watching it, because everybody started walking away, and I'm just watching him, and then he lights a cigarette - and he's talking - and I'm just watching him. I think at some point he probably looked at me like, you going to cut? And I'm like, “oh yeah, yeah, cut.” He was still in it. That's the thing with Denzel. He was so Alonso…I'm just watching him for a while because I didn't know what else he was going to do. It was just so magical. And then I think he looked up at me and I was like, “Okay, cut, cut.”

My mother was held at gunpoint twice in Caracas. The second time it happened she said we were moving to America. We knew no one and we did not have much. But my parents always taught us that in this country we could do or be anything if we worked hard and treated people with respect. Years later, while I was playing football and baseball in college, I got a call from my father. He said that my grandfather, Izu, was dying of cancer back in Venezuela. He said, “Hey, if you want to see him, you got to come back.” We flew back to Caracas, and it was in the middle of an almost revolution because the dictator, Hugo Chávez, petitioned the Supreme Court to run again for office. He won in 1998 and was allowed to only serve one five-year term. The Supreme Court, to their credit, blocked him because it violated the constitution. What did he do? He packed the Supreme Court his buddies, and he petitioned for reconsideration. Now they ruled he could run again, as many times as he wanted to. And he did. He was the dictator until 2013 when he died. After that decision came down, there were massive protests and that happened to coincide with the trip to see my grandfather. My grandfather told me to take him out on the balcony to play chess where he taught me to play as a kid and he said, “Your father tells me you want to go to law school.” I said, “I do.” And he says, “What kind of lawyer do you want to be?” And I said, “I don't really know.” And then this giant of a man — who by then was down to just 85 pounds — lifted a bony finger out at the crowd below, and he said, “Always remember, this is what happens to a country when good people don't serve it.” The next day, my father and I went home, and a week later he had passed away. And so when I was 34 and the president was going to nominate me to be a federal judge, people said, “You're crazy. You got your whole life ahead of you to be a federal judge. Make money for 20, 30 years, and then you could do it.” But for me, it was a no-brainer, because getting to serve this country and my community that had given us everything, has been the great blessing of my life, and for that I am deeply grateful to my grandfather.
