Charles Barkley is known for being fearless with his views on “Inside the NBA”. But unlike others, he is also an entertaining personality. Chuck (as he is popularly known) has made people laugh with his opinions, anecdotes, and general musings. He is not afraid of confronting anybody he disagrees with.

During his playing days too, Chuck was aggressive and did not shy away from a scuffle or two on the court.

Hence, going face to face with right-wing radio host Rush Limbaugh was nothing to him. He recalled this incident on the “Pivot Podcast” months back. Barkley revealed that when he was playing for the Philadelphia 76ers, his coach Paul Westfall approached him for help. According to him, the coach was bringing a friend on the plane and wanted Chuck to handle things.

“We’re on the back of the plane playing cards,” said Chuck, “Then, I forgot who else says, ‘ Oh Hell no!’. I said what’s going on.” It was then seen that Rush was on the plane. The others asked Barkley to confront him.

Barkley continued, “So I go up there. I said ‘Rush, the brothers were a little unhappy so I need to talk to you’.” He was not confrontational and wanted Rush to explain himself. He got surprised by a revelation. “We end up talking and actually became cordial, and he said to me Charles, I don’t believe half the s**t I say on radio or TV. He says it’s all a scheme.”  Rush was playing a character, and that changed Chuck’s political stance a lot.

Barkley has no fear when it comes to expressing his opinions. It was seen when he fought Shaquille O’Neal on the court and sometimes off the court as well.

Yesterday, he re-affirmed his support for gay and trans rights in the most Chuck fashion possible. He said, “If you’re gay or transgender, I love you. And if anyone gives you s**t, tell ’em Charles says f*ck you!”.
