Shaq & Charles Barkley Guarantee To Brighten Your Day {VIDEO}

Author Aimee Thomas
Shaquille O'Neal -Shaq will team up with YouTube Stars Mark Rober and Dude Perfect to determine which sharks have the best hunting techniques.

Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley are here to brighten your day. Last night on the set of “NBA On TNT,” the two former basketball greats got a case of the giggles that will for sure make you laugh out loud. If you need a little pick-me-up, keep reading.

It all started when Ernie Johnson (the show’s host), was talking about a recent injury suffered by Anthony Davis during the Lakers’ playoff loss to the Warriors. Shaq and Barkley were listening intently, and as soon as Johnson finished speaking, they burst out laughing. At first, they tried to control themselves, but the more they tried to stop, the harder they laughed. It was contagious, and soon even Johnson was chuckling along with them.

The moment is just a reason why Shaq and Barkley are loved in the basketball world and why everyone loves their commentary during halftime of the basketball games on “NBA On TNT”. Its just so good. Shaq and Barkley have shared funny moments on the show pretty much daily. In fact, watching them joke around and tease each other has become a hallmark of “NBA On TNT.” But even by their high standards, this moment is one of my favorites. We have all had those moments when you aren’t supposed to laugh but you can’t stop and if someone else joins in it’s over from there. The only difference we probably aren’t doing it on live TV. By the time the camera finally cut away, Shaq and Barkley were wiping tears from their eyes.

If you’re feeling down or stressed, you have to watch this!

I love NBA playoffs so much and it’s in part because of the banter and the back and forth of these guys during the pregame, postgame, and halftime of the games on TNT. Pure entertainment!

Here’s What You Missed On Aimee+Shawn This Week

It was a week of road trips, rejection and really toxic relationships on Aimee+Shawn!

Shawn is getting tired just looking at the school spirit days schedule for his son’s Kindergarten. Themed days a-plenty, a full closet of props needed, and while he doesn’t get Colin ready for school, it is still overwhelming to him. Turns out, a lot of parents feel that way.

Aimee’s son told her about a phenomenon that is supposedly happening all over CCSD schools. Supposedly kids are putting their phones above the stalls, taking pictures of students poppin’ a squat, and putting them on social. We aren’t sure, but we think that might be incredibly illegal.

Shawn’s dad is on a cross-country road trip from Las Vegas back to his home near Boston, Massachusetts. He drives to Nevada because he wants a car for his 3-4 month visit (plus he’s petrified of flying). But at 77 years old, the drive is taxing on him. So we called him every day to make sure he was doing alright. By the end of the week, we think he might need a psychological evaluation.

A couple set a whole bunch of fires along the Las Vegas Strip, and the guy in the relationship blamed her. Why’d she do it? He says she lights fires when they argue. Wow. That sounds healthy. But when we think about it we know plenty of people in tumultuous relationships that shouldn’t be together anymore.

Both Aimee and Shawn aren’t necessarily feeling the love from their kiddos this week. Shawn’s kids want to be with mom more. Aimee walked through the front door and almost got booed by her 4 year old Roman. Cmon! Give us a break!

Next Week on Aimee+Shawn…

If you thought this week was good, wait until we have tickets to see Jonas Brothers “Five Albums One Night” at MGM Grand Garden Arena on September 8th. Not one pair. Not two pairs. THREE PAIRS at 7:35, 8:35 and 9:35! Plus get your share of $125,000 in the 102.7 VGS $1000 Stimmy Check!
