Maury Povich Reacts to the Most Shocking 'Maury' Moments (DNA Reveals, Phobias & More) | PEOPLE

Maury Povich looks back at the most unforgettable moments from 'Maury,' reacting to the DNA test reveals and lie detector twists that turned “You ARE the father” into a pop-culture phenomenon. He shares how the very first tests surprised even him, why he never wanted to know the results in advance, and defends the show against critics who accused it of exploitation. Maury explains his belief that proving paternity could change a child’s life for the better and insists every story was carefully vetted by his production team. Along the way, Maury revisits some of the show’s wildest moments, from bizarre phobias involving olives, cotton balls and clowns to the iconic “Stop seducing my man with a pie” episode. He reflects on his 30-year run, his marriage to Connie Chung and why he’s proud of the impact the show had, calling it “a mitzvah.” Maury also opens up about his new podcast 'On Par with Maury Povich', where he’s finally sharing his life experiences directly with viewers. @onparpod Subscribe to People ►► http://bit.ly/SubscribetoPeople *CONNECT* Web: 💻 https://people.com Facebook: http://facebook.com/peoplemag Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/people/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@people PEOPLE App: 📱 https://bit.ly/3H0bthA *PEOPLE* remains the trusted authority at the center of pop culture.
