Speaking on ‘The Big Podcast with Shaq’, O’Neal recalled getting up every morning to make wagers on whether or not the guests were or were not the fathers of the children in question.

“Every morning at 10 A.M., we’d wake up with thousands of dollars and watch the Maury Povich show and we’d make bets on who the father is. Every day,” he said.
