What They're Saying

Critics Review

“The Shop isn’t just about people talking to each other. It’s deeper. It’s about the things that shape us, the battles we fight, and the journey we’re all on… Over the years, we’ve peeled back the curtain, showing the world that athletes, artists, and entertainers are more than sound bites.” – LeBron James * from his foreword to The Shop *”The Shop answers the question of what it would be like to be a fly on the wall while the most influential people in sports, entertainment, and politics shoot the breeze. Created by Randy Mims and Paul Rivera, the face of the show is LeBron James, who appears in select episodes. The show is set in the place where candid conversations often flow — the barbershop.” * Rolling Stone *
