Lamar Odom awkwardly walked out of an interview when he was asked if he would consider having sex with a trans woman, while the star was talking about his new podcast with Caitlyn Jenner.
Former NBA star Odom, 44, who was married to Jenner’s stepdaughter Khloe Kardashian from 2009 to 2016, also criticized the “cheesy” name of his new podcast with Jenner, 74, during an appearance in No Jumper.
When host Adam22 asked, “Do you think you’ll end up giving trans women a chance because Caitlyn is such a big part of your life?” Odom said, ‘What do you mean opportunity?…Everyone has a chance.’
Adam22 responded, ‘You have to follow your heart,’ and Odom said, ‘This guy is crazy!’ before leaving.
Odom recently launched his Keeping Up With Sports podcast with Jenner and Zach Hirsch, and the star said, “It’s a little cheesy because it’s like Keeping Up with the Kardashians, but it’s because it’s Bruce and me.”

The last time Caitlyn and Lamar were photographed together was at Kanye West’s Yeezy Season 3 event and The Life Of Pablo listening party at Madison Square Garden in New York City in February 2016.
After referring to Jenner as ‘Bruce’ once again before Hirsch quickly corrected him, he said the show, despite its name, would not reference the Kardashians.
He said: ‘Business are business. If our business doesn’t include them, then it doesn’t include them.
“But the show is not about [The Kardashians]. You know what I mean? It’s about life and sports. Combination.
‘Caitlyn is an amazing host. Keeping Up With The Kardashians star, Olympic gold medalist, drafted to the NBA.
‘Transformation from the most masculine man to a woman. That is enough for me.’
The wide-ranging talk also saw Odom speak openly about his sex life, his past drug addictions and his near-death experiences.
The star said she has “friends with benefits” and gets intimate from time to time, saying: “I enjoy masturbation, to tell you the truth… Get up and do it.” It is not a ritual.

The event is known to have been Lamar’s first public outing since a near-fatal overdose in October 2015 after being found unconscious at a Nevada brothel.

Odom has since invested in rehab centers and said, “I lived it.” You know what I’m talking? So my heart is in it. A lot of people since 2005, shit, have overdosed. More deaths than World War I, World War II and Vietnam combined.
‘That’s a lot of people… It’s crazy. Marijuana is the way to go, I would say. Marijuana is probably the healthy high, I would call it, right? The healthy alternative?
He also praised Kanye West, saying, “He’s a boss.” He owns it. I admire him. He is black. Good? He owns his own shit. I fuck with him. He is also a genius. He is probably the greatest artist we had in my generation.”
“I haven’t been around him, probably since I woke up from the coma.”
Lamar and Khloe married in 2009 after just 30 days of knowing each other.
They finally separated in 2013 and their divorce was finalized on December 9, 2016.
The wide-ranging talk also saw Odom talk about his sex life, his past drug addictions and his near-death experiences.
Before and after announcing his retirement from professional basketball in 2014, Odom was often in the news for all the wrong reasons. In 2013, he was arrested for driving under the influence and was believed to be a drug abuser.
At the time, he had also been married to Khloe for five years, since 2009, and the couple’s highly publicized marriage was even part of a show called Khloe & Lamar in 2011 before it was canceled a year later because he had “worn out” the basketball star
Two years later, in 2013, after months of speculated separation, Kardashian filed for divorce from Odom and the legal restoration of her last name.
The divorce was signed by both parties in July 2015, but did not receive final approval from a judge before being dismissed on petition in October 2015, the same month Odom was found in a coma in a Nevada brothel after using a deadly mixture of cocaine. alcohol and a sexual stimulant.
The former NBA player was placed on life support at a Las Vegas hospital and did not regain consciousness until three days later. He was eventually taken to a Los Angeles hospital and Kardashian decided to withdraw her divorce filing, citing that she wanted to support her ex-husband in making medical decisions during her recovery.

Odom fully recovered from the near-fatal overdose three months later in January 2016, before Kardashian filed for divorce again in May of that year. Their separation ended in December 2016.
In October, Caitlyn revealed that she no longer communicates with her ex-wife Kris Jenner, 68, despite 22 years of marriage and having two children together; Kendall, 28, and Kylie, 26.
Upon marrying Kris in 1991, Caitlyn became a stepfather to her children, whom she welcomed with her late lawyer, Robert Kardashian: Kourtney, 44, Kim, 42, Khloe and also Rob, 36. Notably, he passed away in 2003 after a battle against esophageal cancer.
