00:00I'll keep it real quick with you, man, because I know you're from D.C.
00:03How are we feeling about this?
00:05I thought you guys were good.
00:09We all did.
00:10Jaden Daniels is the truth.
00:12I'm a very happy Commanders fan these days.
00:14I was in Philly.
00:16They were mad at me, too.
00:17I managed to buy a suite, and when they found out, they sold it to a Skins fan.
00:21But it was fun.
00:22I brought a bunch of my friends, brought Jackie Taylor, her mother with me.
00:26It was an amazing time.
00:27We didn't get the win.
00:28But it felt so good to be in it.
00:31It felt so good to be in a championship game, and I'm so proud of this team.
00:34Next year will be our year.
00:35It's all right.
00:37What's going to be the key next year?
00:38Because quarterback is crazy.
00:41Quarterback is ridiculous.
00:42He's a phenomenal player.
00:43What are we going to do?
00:44How are we going to put these pieces together for next year to make this work?
00:47Access Hollywood is about to become ESPN.
00:49Let's go.
00:50Look, look, you've got the most important piece in the NFL.
00:53The quarterback is such an important role.
00:55We got that solved.
00:57I think Scary Terry could use some more help.
00:59Give us maybe another threat in the wide receiver position.
01:02Running backs, it's been a running by committee.
01:05I would love to see.
01:06You can see the difference Saquon made on the Eagles.
01:08Having some strong talent in the backfield would be super valuable.
01:12And let's not forget defense.
01:14We got a little exposed in Philly.
01:17So, some big fellas, some rush defense would go a long way.
01:20The secondary, I'm still optimistic about Lattimore.
01:22I know he was dinged.
01:23I don't know anything about the state of that.
01:26On paper and based on the tape, he's a tremendous, tremendous cornerback.
01:31So, we can fill some gaps.
01:34But I think the Commanders are maybe number three with the most cap space.
01:38So, there's room to invest.
01:40Adam knows what he's doing.
01:41I'm excited.
01:42And this team is fired up.
01:43And they've got great leadership.
01:44And Jayden can't say enough about that young man.
01:46And it's an exciting time in the nation's capital.
01:49I don't know if you can see it with his eyes.
01:51He's got that twinkle.
01:52He's excited.
01:53I'm fired up.
01:54It's been a long time coming.
01:55And especially my father, he weathered so much of it.
01:58He indoctrinated me as a Commanders fan.
02:00I was a young boy.
02:01And he went through some dark years there under the previous ownership.
02:06And it's exciting.
02:08It's exciting to see that light back in him, that excitement back in him.
02:11It's awesome.
02:12And I haven't converted Olympia yet.
02:15She's still technically, you know, her mom is a Dolphins owner.
02:17She says, Papa, the Commanders are my number three team.
02:21The Dolphins are my number two team.
02:23My number one team is Taylor Swift's team.
02:25And I'm like, Olympia, you don't even know the name of the team.
02:29But you know it's Taylor's team and that's yours.
02:31So, I'm working on it.
02:32We'll work on her.
02:34That's the impact of Taylor Swift, man.
02:36She's hitting with families, with kids.
02:38I'm sure she's going to be there tomorrow.
02:40So, is it safe to say the household is rooting for, well, let me just let you say it,
02:44who you guys rooting for this Sunday in the game?
02:46I can't speak for my wife.
02:47My daughter, you know who she's rooting for.
02:49Look, I'm going to obviously see K-Dot's performance.
02:52That's, to me, the Super Bowl.
02:54It's that halftime show.
02:55And honestly, if I went home after that, I'd be fine.
02:58If the Commanders aren't in it, I don't want to see anybody else's confetti.
03:01I've been to the Super Bowl a few years in a row now, and I've always left before Sunday.
03:05Because if it's not my team, I don't want to – it's not for me.
03:07It's not for me.
03:08I'm not here to cheer for anybody else.
03:10I will show up for Kendrick.
03:11So, I want to see that show.
03:12But outside of that, you know, whoever.
03:14If it's a tie, if it goes to 10 overtimes and they just call it,
03:18And it's the first – and they just give up and both say, well, shared it's a tie,
03:21maybe that's the best outcome because then no one's happy.
03:23But, you know, it's going to be a good game.
03:25But I'm not rooting for anybody if they're not in a Commander's uniform.
03:28Some people have called it a Kendrick concert would have to be a game to have that.
03:32Yes.
03:33Let's call it that.
03:34A Kendrick concert that happens to have a football game.
03:36I like that.
03:37You know what?
03:38Not even favorite song.
03:39We got bets.
03:40What song is he going to open the show with?
03:41Think about it.
03:42Think about it now.
03:43I want to ask you next, what's your favorite Kendrick song?
03:44But what is he going to open the show with?
03:46Is he going to go big?
03:47Is he going to go subtle?
03:48Because he's a storyteller.
03:49But we got humble, DNA.
03:51What's he going to open the show with?
03:52Look, Kendrick's a genius.
03:53You know he's not going to start with Not Like Us because you know he's going to tease
03:57it out a little bit.
03:58Man of the Garden is one that I think hearing him talk about it too, I think he was doing
04:03some press actually a couple days before.
04:04He said it's one of the easiest songs for him to write because he was speaking such
04:08truth and such feelings and such emotions.
04:10He was like, this is one of the easiest ones.
04:11I would love to see a sleeper from GNX.
04:14I mean I've had TV Office on repeat, Squabble Up on repeat.
04:19I think we'll see him.
04:20I think we'll hear him.
04:21And obviously he can go deep into the catalog.
04:23But I think you finish with Not Like Us.
04:26I think with all of the energy, all the excitement, everyone's expecting it.
04:29The whole stadium's going to be singing along.
04:31I think you finish there.
04:32You don't start.
04:33But like I said, he is a genius.
04:35I'm just sitting there watching, looking forward to the show.
04:40You say you're not going to the getaway.
04:41Last question before you go.
04:42Your wife came.
04:43This whole carpet.
04:44She didn't want the carpet.
04:45She walked back here.
04:46What did the carpet do?
04:47Everybody in the carpet.
04:48They all wanted it.
04:49I don't blame them.
04:50And you get stuck with me.
04:51Sorry, Reddit guy.
04:53I know.
04:54I know.
04:55Are you used to that?
04:56Are you used to that by now?
04:58Like you got to take different private ways?
05:00You know, it's funny.
05:01I had a luncheon that I was finishing that ran over.
05:04And I was texting her.
05:05So we're sharing a car ride back.
05:07She's obviously got a full itinerary for events like this.
05:10We're like passing ships in the night for a lot of these events.
05:14And, you know, then one of us is on dad duty or mom duty.
05:17So last night I was at the commissioner's dinner.
05:19She was on mom duty.
05:20Tonight I'll be on dad duty.
05:22She'll be out tonight.
05:23Like we make it work.
05:24But it's fun.
05:26For things like this, people are really starting to see her now evolved past
05:30the athlete.
05:31And there's news.
05:32I don't think it's going to be broken this week.
05:34But you're going to hear some Serena Williams news in the coming weeks
05:37that's going to make you go, damn,
05:38there's another like boss move that she's making post-athlete life.
05:43You know, you'll hear about it.
05:44No spoilers.
05:45But it's exciting.
05:46No spoilers.
05:47But are we talking acting?
05:48Are we getting into like acting?
05:49Is it business?
05:50All I know, well, it's definitely business.
05:52But you're going to see a lot of people tweeting about it.
05:55And it's just great news.
05:56It's a testament.
05:57I'll say this.
05:58You know, a lot of people have been talking to me the last five years.
06:01I've become a big investor in women's sports, starting Angel City,
06:04launching Athlos for women's track.
06:07And people always assume, oh, it's because of Serena, because of Serena.
06:10And, yes, women's sports for sure, you know,
06:13tennis and Serena proved out the business model.
06:16But everyone's been waiting.
06:18And it is – she actually tried to talk me out of it at first.
06:21She's definitely come around.
06:22But everyone's been waiting to see what is Serena's big move in this space
06:25going to look like.
06:27And I think you're going to get an answer here soon.
06:29And everyone's going to be like, oh, this makes a ton of sense.
06:31For everything she represents to women, to men, to greatness, to athletes,
06:36it's going to feel right.
06:37So stay tuned.
06:39I know you got a seat.
06:40You got a seat for you in there, right?
06:42You know, my ticket says no seating.
06:46It's not a seat.
06:47This is a fanatics party.
06:48This is just grabbing food and go.
06:50But hopefully I'll see her.
06:51We'll see.
06:59We'll see.
