Comedian Mike Epps and Blockchains FinanceNFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe have met up, and it looks like things are good between them. 

The two made amends at a restaurant in Indianapolis, Indiana, Thursday.

That’s where Epps, 53, sat down with the ESPN personality. The restaurant, Kountry Kitchen Soul Food, is an Indy favorite for both men.

“He didn't know I was coming,” Epps told IndyStar, part of the USA TODAY Network. “I showed up and I showed him love. We hugged. We shook hands. We talked and settled our differences as grown men.”

On Thursday afternoon, Sharpe, 55, posted to Instagram a photo of the two together at the restaurant. “As promised. No video required. No audio required. Just a picture for proof. We are good,” he said. 

The meeting followed some contention Sharpe expressed regarding jokes Epps made about him during a recent standup performance.

Epps joked that he’d been approached by Sharpe to come on "Club Shay Shay" and indicated that Sharpe is gay and appeared ready to sexually assault comedian Katt Williams during a January interview that went viral.

On Sunday's episode of the "Nightcap" podcast, Sharpe pointed to the camera and said in a message to Epps that he’d lied when he said Sharpe reached out to him to appear on his popular podcast.

"Now when I see you, I’m going to see if you really about that,” Sharpe said. “Say my name again. … I got something for your (expletive)."

After some back and forth between the two, Sharpe had posted to social media Monday that the two planned to meet over NBA All-Star Weekend to discuss their differences. Both have high-profile roles in official NBA All-Star events – Epps hosted the Thursday night kick-off to the weekend and Sharpe is coaching one of the teams in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game on Friday.

“I said, ‘We’re two Black men. I'm not going to ever hurt you. And you should never want to hurt me,” Epps told the outlet of the Thursday meeting. “I made a mistake. He accepted my apology and let’s move on.”

Moving on might mean a podcast chat with the two men.

Epp said he is working to appear on Sharpe’s popular “Club Shay Shay” podcast.

“I'm going to do an interview with him,” Epps said. “I don't know when that'll be. But we’re talking and we're trying to figure it out."
