LeBron James and his ‘More Than A Vote’ voting rights coalition are putting things into high gear with a week to go before the general election in the United States. Early voting is already going on across the country and ‘More than A Vote’ has made increased efforts to combat disinformation online, as well as encouraging potential voters to make a plan for when they will vote. The final push now also includes an election-themed episode of ‘The Shop,’ where former president Barack Obama will join LeBron James and Maverick Carter on the eve of the Nov. 3 general election.
The new episode of ‘The Shop’ will premiere on Friday, October 30 on HBO Max. However, it will also be available to non-HBO subscribers on multiple HBO and HBO Max platforms, including YouTube, starting on October 31.
