Former NBA champion and Defensive Player of the Year Metta Sandiford-Artest (formerly Ron Artest/Metta World Peace) joins Jonah for a heartfelt and hilarious conversation. Together they explore what it means to be misunderstood—something both Metta and the Jewish community know well. Metta opens up about his personal growth journey, his mission to spread happiness, and his strong support for the Jewish community after October 7th. He reflects on his turbulent childhood, the meaning behind his name changes, and shares iconic stories from his legendary NBA career—from being drafted straight out of Queensbridge, to the infamous “Malice at the Palace,” to championship-sealing game winners. An unmissable episode blending hoops, humor, and humanity.
