Dax Shepard on Fighting Putin, Officiating a Wedding & LOVING Top Gun: Maverick

Dax talks about officiating a friend’s wedding, his dream of fighting Putin in the octagon, growing up in Detroit at the height of the “Bad Boys” Pistons, driving crazy fast in “Top Gear America,” owning a lot of cars, and his intense love for the new Top Gun: Maverick movie. #GameNight #NBAFinals

His podcast convinced me to get sober. Love Dax. Edit: today, 8/13/22 4.5 months clean and sober. Finally getting help through the VA for my cPTSD too.

[@user-om4ot5zi6m]

which episode ?

[@Mister_Portal_USMC]

@@user-om4ot5zi6m not one in particular, the Kelly Osborne one sticks out. He talks about his sobriety a lot.

[@monkeybeak2056]

Congratulations! That's amazingly! I've learned a ton about mental health and relationships from his podcast. My son's friend is going to rehab today. Any advice on how I can support him through it? He's like a part of our family. He's gone before, but struggled. I'm hoping this is the time.

[@justjulzz5940]

Congratulations

[@Xammblu_Games]

These are the best comments! Keep picking up the guitar!!

[@zyzzyvacation]

His podcast with guest Bradley Cooper was epic in that they discussed in great detail how they both got sober, and how their lives improved so much in sobriety. Worth a listen...

[@CarsonGalloCarsonJGallo]

Yeah they’re like Brothers after doing Hit & Run together.

[@zyzzyvacation]

@@CarsonGalloCarsonJGallo Yep, I notice that Dax's wife Kristen and his sister Carly (Hatter) are also in this movie. All in the family, you might say😏🤞

It's refreshing. He has a music video with his wife. Pretty cool

Dax is awesome, I think we can all agree here. His podcast is really one of the best ones out there, he's so funny and savvy

[@alydematti]

Dax is such a great talk show guest. So funny and charismatic!

Love you Dax! Not too often, someone’s promoting something they weren’t in! 😆

[@coach_mill]

Dax threw in “she didn’t know me from a hot rock” phrase that he learned from Jerrod Carmichael on his show haha I feel like he was determined to find a way to throw it in

[@tvtriviachampion]

As a guest, Dax always delivers! Jimmy must enjoy guests like Dax a lot more than the latest “beautiful” actor/model who can’t tell a funny story.

[@damunaik4]

Dax is great but that's kinda weird of Jimmy to have a preference and only be nice to funny people or comedians. Not everyone has that talent. Also, it's a talk show for people that act, not make jokes and tell funny stories.

[@ma1xx5]

He's not just funny and charming, he's extremally intelligent as well, you should listen to his podcast. It's awesome!

[@SportTalkForDummies]

Dax should host a day time talk show w all the energy & likability he has going!

always a fun interview when Dax Shepard is on. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@damunaik4]

He looks like he's happy. Good to see him that way! And love his humor 😍

[@Ram_Bri]

Dax… you killed that interview! Real cool dude.

[@NYandAZ]

He is getting to be such a handsome man. Not that he was ugly before by any means. He just had long hair and a scruffy beard, which is not my favorite look. Seeing a very clean cut Dax in a suit is realllly attractive. He was also very skinny, so putting on quite a bit of muscle also helped! He and his wife are total packages. I’m so happy for them. Such a beautiful and genuinely happy family. They’re always doing something good and/or positive for other people. I just love that. They share their happiness in such a troubled world. Thank you!! ❤️

[@PiCheZvara]

Kudos to Dax. He recreated himself during COVID-19 and he's really found a very cool angle for himself here. Hope it works out and he has fun with it.

[@goodsoul7833]

Stop hoping. It will work out. Be sure.

Dax Shepard in the Movie "Lets go to Prison" is still one of my favorite Comedy Films. Will Arnett is also good in this Movie.

[@kjherrera1289]

The compilation in the beginning of celebrities and noticeable individuals being incarcerated really humanized the film and helped it become more down to earth.

When did Dax steal Seth Rogen's voice? Also, I'm not sure I would stand right next to the road as he drives by in almost 200mph...one slight wobble of the wheel and those guys are toast.

The wheel doesn't wobble when you know what you're doing.

I said that exact thing. Couldnt believe they had those 2 standing there. Hopefully a professional driver on that take

[@TheDarkness1]

@@JonnyDIY I've gone almost 200mph and it's more of a rush than feeling scared. If you know what you're doing and how to correct for bumps, it's not hard to hold it straight. Also been almost 170mph on a motorcycle. Tuck and rip the throttle. 🤘
