Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless had a falling out a few years ago on "Undisputed," but now, they appear to be on good terms again.

Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless were the best duo in sports talk television when they were on Undisputed. Unfortunately, Bayless let ego get the better of him and completely messed up the relationship.

There were two arguments, in particular, that led to their falling out. The first was when Skip told Shannon to put his glasses back on during a Tom Brady discussion. Secondly, Sharpe did not appreciate Bayless' flippant comments following the Demar Hamlin situation.

Eventually, Shannon left Undisputed, and Bayless was never able to make it work with Richard Sherman, Keyshawn Johnson, and Michael Irvin. The show got canceled, and Bayless left FS1. Now, he is back with Stephen A. Smith on First Take. However, he only does Friday shows.

As for Sharpe, he is still doing Nightcap with Ochocinco, and Club Shay Shay. In fact, today, Sharpe and Bayless are going to release an interview that was conducted on Club Shay Shay. It's a reunion no one expected, and it will certainly be an illuminating conversation.

"My episode of Club Shay Shay drops tomorrow. @ClubShayShay I had an amazing couple of hours reminiscing with my Undisputed partner and friend @ShannonSharpe about what made us legendary and why the show ended prematurely," Bayless wrote on X.

The episode is set to be released at noon, and there is no denying that this could be one of the most-watched episodes in the history of Club Shay Shay. Fans want to know how these two feel about each other these days. They also want to know if they will ever work together again.

Given the way Shannon and Skip are speaking about the episode, it appears as though this won't be a combative interview. Instead, it will just be two men looking to figure out what went wrong.
