Summary

The Dudes are joined by WWE Superstar ‘The Miz’, but first they kick things off with the launch of their new book: ‘Operation Trick Shot’, a Mother’s Day recap and the latest from the NBA, NHL, and Almost Sports. Then, Garrett gets a BIG birthday surprise before WWE Superstar The Miz stops by. He shares his unbelievable journey from The Real World to WWE stardom, including going broke, becoming a fan-favorite heel, and the stories behind his toughest opponents. Plus, Josh and Jared Pettitte stop by to talk BTS of the latest Dude Perfect Outdoors video, upcoming videos, and the guys wrap things up with another hilarious 2-Minute Warning.
