Longtime sports media personality Stephen A. Smith wasn’t about to let a caller on his self-titled show make a bold claim about the Cars franchise.
Oh yes, the age-old debate on who is the best racer of all time, Lightning McQueen or Strip “The King” Weathers, made its way to Smith’s call-in show, and the host wasn’t about to let the question from “Danny in Wisconsin” about who is the goat in the Cars universe slide without an impassioned response.
While this is clearly all part of a bit for Smith and the caller, it’s still genuinely hysterical to see Smith get faux-bent out of shape over being asked about Lightning McQueen from the Cars movies.

We would genuinely watch 30 minutes of Smith and “Danny in Wisconsin” go back-and-forth about the Cars movies and the Fast and the Furious franchise, which also gets brought up in this segment.
You just cannot script something this wonderful, as Smith’s fake fury merges with a very unorthodox topic to create a delightful moment of live television.
