"I’m going to jail for this interview" - Mark Cuban hilariously regrets playing 'WPS OR BPS' with Shaquille O'Neal
On Wednesday, Shaquille O'Neal had Mark Cuban as his guest on his show "The Big Podcast with Shaq." During the interview, TV personality Adam Lefkoe asked the two about certain objects, and they had to respond whether it belonged to White People Shit (WPS) or Black People Shit (BPS). Cuban hilariously expressed regret about playing the podcast game.
Cuban is one of the most popular entrepreneurs and the former majority owner of the Dallas Mavericks. He is currently the franchise's minority owner. Cuban has thus formed connections with several players, the "Big Diesel" among them.
Lefkoe asked them about Kellogg's Frosted Flakes, which resulted in a hilarious debate between Cuban and the Lakers legend.
"I think that's WPS," Cuban argued. "... No, you can't take our frosted flakes, Shaq. ... You want me to go show you my box? No, I mean the frosted flakes, the frosted flakes box. I'm going to jail for this interview. Oh, my god."
The podcast's account shared his hilarious comments on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Shaquille O'Neal apologized to Mark Cuban for past "lucky" comments aimed at Dallas Mavericks minority owner
Shaquille O'Neal apologized to Mark Cuban on his podcast. Cuban had purchased the Dallas Mavericks franchise for $285 million on Jan. 4, 2000. O'Neal argued he thought Cuban simply got rich with his internet company and lacked any precise business knowledge.
He acknowledged how his comments weren't based on any strong footing and wanted to apologize to the man himself.
"We've been friends for 30 years. I owe you an apology," O'Neal said. "Because when you stepped on the scene, I was like, 'these kids they sold an internet company.' And that's why I called you lucky ... But see I had no idea you did business school Indiana. So from man to man, I apologize for calling you lucky."
The internet company was called Broadcast.com, which was a popular internet radio website at the time.
Originally called Audionet, the company was established by Chris Jaeb in 1989. Cuban and Todd Wagner led the company's operations. Audionet was eventually bought by Yahoo! for $5.7 billion in Yahoo! stock.
