This week on We Playin’ Spades, Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee welcome the legend himself—Maury Povich! The man who turned “You are NOT the father!” into an era-defining moment pulls up to the Turquoise Table to talk legacy, laughter, and lies detected. Maury gets candid about the wild west of daytime talk in the ‘90s, why he walked away from sports journalism as a cub reporter, and how he managed to convince broadcast queen Connie Chung to say yes. Plus, he dishes on his latest chapter—his new podcast On Par with Maury Povich.
Joining him at the table is sharp-witted sports journalist Pablo Torre, known for mixing humor, intellect, and chaos in equal measure, and who recently broke the Kawhi Leonard saga. Together, Maury and Pablo turn the tables on Nick—asking the self-proclaimed “father of many” a few paternity questions of their own. It’s old-school media meets new-school mayhem—and when the cards hit the table, will the truth set ‘em free, or will somebody be shamed into running off set?
