During the conversation, Bronson revealed that his wife was in labour for 18 hours.

“I played DMX. ‘stop, drop,’” Bronson explained to Rogan. “That motherf**ker jumped out of her! I swear on everything, it’s on camera."
"It’s on film, as soon as the Peruvian flute music stopped, DMX came on, he heard the [barking] and he jumped out.”
Bronson said that he wished he could have told DMX that story, as it means so much to his family.
