Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bad Boys
Q: Why did you pick Bad Boys?
It's a movie that has everything, action, comedy, some elements of sexy, and some elements of suspense.
Best Episode Ever: Entourage Season 5
Q: Are you taking the studio job or are you continuing to be Vince's agent?
If I'm Ari, I think I would have stayed like he did. You're building something special and you don't want to leave before you see if it's a masterpiece.
Best Episode Ever: Entourage Season 5
Q: Do you really have a plan Ari? Really?
The fact that he answered, I don't know, was like Vince's. That was like the real wake up call, I think for Vince this season.
Best Episode Ever: Entourage Season 8
Q: What were your overall thoughts on Season 8?
The hosts had mixed feelings; they felt Seasons 7 and 8 should not have existed and that the series would have been perfect if it had ended after Season 6.
