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 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😏🤞

[@HH-gv8mx]

Did you catch Jimmy on Bill Mahers Club Random podcast? 💨

[@CarsonGalloCarsonJGallo]

@@HH-gv8mx Just watched it, that was a good one.

[@zyzzyvacation]

@@HH-gv8mx the one where they were discussing Jay Leno and Conan👍

[@MrVikingsandra]

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

[@LeezPgh]

Dax is for sure becoming one of the most entertaining authentic and decent people in Hollywood.

[@hoosiercrypto9955]

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

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

[@Ram_Bri]

Agreed

He should do something with that! 😁😉😉😉😆

Without A Paddle is what I'll always remember him by. Such a classic

[@religionisapoison2413]

Yeah I've never heard of him

[@Mister_Portal_USMC]

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.

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

[@ma1xx5]

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

[@Ram_Bri]

Dax… you killed that interview! Real cool dude.

[@damunaik4]

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

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.

[@marty4278]

Hmm, I’m always up for a good, funny movie. Thanks.

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.

[@Nolanoyayo]

He started podcast in 2018 pre covid

[@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!! ❤️

[@snoopygonewilder]

I was recently re-watching Parenthood, and I forgot how much I liked Dax in that show, but really... I liked the whole cast in that show.

No man has ever out kicked their coverage like this dude. His wife is a goddess!
