In this clip, the topics of Hollywood greats Denzel Washington and Samuel L. Jackson were discussed, along with their impacts on film. Aries Spears pointed out the shared longevity, vast body of work, and immense talent between the two actors. The conversation veered toward who may be the better actor, with mentions of Washington's "Equalizer" movie series as proof of his unimpeachable acting skills. Jackson, on the other hand, was touted for his historical plethora of roles. Aries Spears disagreed with Michael Jai White's view on the topic, which stated that Samuel L. Jackson could play any of Denzel Washington's roles.
