Baron! Your appearance on the improvised musical DVD audio commentary to Step Brothers Is legendary!! how on earth do you get talked into improvising songs with Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, Adam Mckay, and Jon Brion??

The funny thing about that is that it all started with a random call. Someone called me and said "hey, so do you want to be on some back-of-the-DVD bonus features and do a sort of commentary for a movie"…

The funny thing about that is that it all started with a random call. Someone called me and said "hey, so do you want to be on some back-of-the-DVD bonus features and do a sort of commentary for a movie", and I was like yeah but what movie is it. Then they said Step Brothers and I could not say yes fast enough. Sign me up. I get to meet Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly? I mean come on.

So I show up and wait in the lobby, and John C. Reilly walks in with a producer and Adam McKay. There's no script, they're just like "Baron, you just show up and roll with it". So we walk into the room and they start playing the piano, and Will/John just start freestyling and singing the whole thing, and the producer just tells me "hey man, anytime you feel comfortable, just give them a wave and jump in", and so that's how it came to be.

Baron! Hope you’re doing well my man. During your time in the league, did you watch a lot of movies on the road? And a particular favorite? Let’s Go Knicks!!

Yeah of course. Some of my go-tos were City of God, Space Jam, Above the Rim, Casino. He Got Game. The classics! Before the season, I'd watch The Godfather movies. Any and all basketball movies, anything Denzel had going on…

Any and all basketball movies, anything Denzel had going on and came out with, and same with Eddie Murphy. At that time it was really all about the stars, you know? Eddie Murphy is one of the most talented people ever, and Denzel is one of the greatest actors of our time. I was just locked in on those two most of the time.
