LeBron James invites stars to a free flowing and spirited discussion

The series will visit barbershops around the country to gather distinguished individuals who can speak honestly on sports, music, pop culture, world events, business, and other culturally relevant topics. “The Shop is exactly why we created Uninterrupted,” says James. “Anyone who has been in a real barbershop, like the ones where I grew up, knows why this show can be so incredible. I’m really excited HBO believed in our idea and is helping us create something special.”

The list of past guests include Drake, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Diddy, Jimmy Kimmel, Patrick Mahomes, Lil Nas X, Will Smith, Megan Rapinoe, Kevin Hart, Rob Gronkowski, and most recently, the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama.
