Detention: Unfiltered Conversations with Andre & Niki — Part 1 | Video

One microphone problem, four familiar voices, and absolutely no chance of staying on topic.

Jay and Gary sit down with Dre and Niki for Part 1 of a Detention conversation that moves from mistaken assumptions about speaking Italian to UFC stories, Vegas bathrooms, and an unexpectedly committed debate about milk.

Along the way, the group compares childhood drinks, grocery brands, and the things people remember a little too clearly from the VHS era. It is the kind of table talk where every answer gives somebody else an opening.

Detention episode: explicit language, adult humor, and unfiltered conversation.
