“Most unexpected collab ever”: NBA fans scratch their heads as Michael Porter Jr. ropes in Lana Rhoades as next podcast guest

Michael Porter Jr., like many current and former NBA players, hosts his own podcast. One of his recent episodes featured a special guest, content creator Lana Rhoades, on his show “Curious Mike.”

A significant number of viewers responded strongly to Porter Jr.’s most recent installment.

“Most unexpected collab ever,” one fan wrote on Instagram.

Although Porter Jr.’s show and guest list were met with mixed reactions, some were unimpressed. Certain individuals expressed criticism towards the Denver Nuggets forward for hosting his own podcast.

Some people believed he should concentrate on basketball. The Denver Nuggets are currently competing for the top spot in the Western Conference. A few of their supporters believe he should prioritize basketball over his podcast.

Despite having booked Lana Rhoades, many were still impressed and appeared to be huge supporters of the popular internet sensation.

Lana Rhoades praises Michael Porter Jr. as a podcast host before interview release with the Nuggets player

After the interview, Lana Rhoades commended Michael Porter Jr.

“Best interviewer ever,” she wrote on a clip of the interview.

The pair conversed about an array of subjects, including their respective careers and how they navigated through their shared experience of being in the spotlight.

During the interview, they also touched upon Rhoades’ exit from her previous job. Porter expressed a strong interest in learning about the circumstances surrounding her departure and the negative aspects of her former profession. Rhoades was candid about her past struggles with childhood challenges and mental health problems.

“There are a lot of things that I have come to terms with recently that I didn’t even know were wrong. I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder,” Rhoades said.

During their conversation, the pair delved into the health concerns surrounding Rhoades’ past profession. The basketball player shared that women working in the sex industry had significantly shorter lifespans compared to those outside of the industry, a fact that left them both stunned.

“The average life expectancy for a woman in the sex industry is about 37 and the average life expectancy outside of the industry is about 78, I think,” Porter Jr. said.

While speaking, Rhoades also addressed the truthful aspects of her previous industry and openly criticized her experience working within it.
