While talking about his generous proposition, Chuck made a hilarious joke which left the panel and Shaquille O’Neal, in particular, in splits. Chuck said, “I’m pledging one million dollars to black women in Alabama to start I.T startups. Right now, I’m giving them a million dollars because black women really came out and supported Doug Jones. That does not mean half salons and restaurants black women, that means startups.”

Making Shaq laugh for so long is no joke and it seems Charles Barkley has mastered the art of doing it. The two are known for pulling pranks on one another which becomes the highlight of the show.
