Max Mendoza makes an appearance as a broadcaster on the Today show alongside Fernando, his football phenom brother. “It was all because of my brother,” Mendoza said of his daytime television appearance. “He told me if I wanted to go to New York with him, I was like sure, that would be great. We got a little tour of all the little studios: Tonight Show, Today Show and everything like that. It was fun, and then of course, I got to actually be on camera and it was just great. I got to show the world what I was made of. It was just great being able to represent Gulliver in that way on a national scale. I really got to show the world like what I was made of, like I really showed them that I could do this. And it was a cold read, that meant I had no idea what was going to be on there. I just read it like that on live TV.”
