- 1:54Speaker 1: And it looks like we're about to be back driven
- 1:56Speaker 1: in the house because I'm looking at the way coronavirus
- 1:59Speaker 1: is spiking back up all throughout the country. So it
- 2:02Speaker 1: looked like we're gonna be back driven, driven right back
- 2:04Speaker 1: in the house soon. It's definitely spiked a couple of
- 2:07Speaker 1: places nineteen nineteen states. But I doubt the will. I
- 2:10Speaker 1: doubt they'll shut the country down again. They just can't
- 2:13Speaker 1: tug it out this time. Yeah, I think they know.
- 2:15Speaker 1: They're looking at it like, look, people need to work,
- 2:17Speaker 1: people need to pay for their mortgage, people need to
- 2:19Speaker 1: get food. So it's like, look what we're gonna do,
- 2:22Speaker 1: you know, I think they're gonna stop a lot of
- 2:24Speaker 1: the stuff that they I think that we're gonna do,
- 2:26Speaker 1: like a lot of the uh, the nightclub venues, a
- 2:29Speaker 1: lot of the beaches. They're gonna shut that down a
- 2:31Speaker 1: whole lot. But we'll see, we'll see. And I don't
- 2:33Speaker 1: think people people are adjusting to the new normal, Like
- 2:36Speaker 1: I don't see I mean, I'm not out, but I
- 2:37Speaker 1: don't see people wearing masks. I don't see people. No,
- 2:40Speaker 1: I didn't see that social distancing. I don't see nobody
- 2:43Speaker 1: practicing the new normal at all. Yeah. Well, York City
- 2:46Speaker 1: they said they got twenty five thousand complaints of businesses
- 2:49Speaker 1: not following the rules they're supposed to follow. Especially they
- 2:52Speaker 1: said the Hampton's in Manhattan had the most. So Cuomo
- 2:55Speaker 1: is threatening to shut it down here. Yeah, in New
- 2:58Speaker 1: Jersey they opening their opening. Outdoor dining starts today, So
- 3:02Speaker 1: outdoor dining and you can actually go into stores to
- 3:04Speaker 1: purchase things today. So we'll see how that works for Jersey.
- 3:08Speaker 1: And I wonder if the cases are spiking because people
- 3:11Speaker 1: aren't social distancing R because they do it more testing.
- 3:16Speaker 1: I wonder, you know what I'm saying. I wonder if
- 3:18Speaker 1: that's the reason I actually I'm doing some free COVID

- 5:45Speaker 1: it's the breakfast club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,
- 5:50Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast club.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Let's get in some front page news where we're starting you. Well,
- 5:58Speaker 1: let's start in Atlanta with the race Yard Brooks. He
- 6:00Speaker 1: had a fatal encounter with police officers. An employee at
- 6:04Speaker 1: a Wendy's in Atlanta phone the authorities. They said somebody
- 6:07Speaker 1: had fallen asleep in their car and the restaurants drive
- 6:09Speaker 1: through lane and at first it looked like things we're
- 6:12Speaker 1: going to be friendly. They do have recorded on the
- 6:14Speaker 1: officer's body camera and a surveillance camera what the encounter
- 6:17Speaker 1: sounded like with police officers. As Rayhard Brooks was cooperating
- 6:21Speaker 1: with a sobriety test and also talking about his daughter's
- 6:24Speaker 1: birthday here is some of that. Will you take a
- 6:26Speaker 1: preliminary bread test for me? I could walk home. Myster
- 6:30Speaker 1: talks right here. Do you think that you'd be in
- 6:32Speaker 1: violation or something if you were to drive your vehicle?
- 6:34Speaker 1: You know it's best less possible for me to part here,
- 6:39Speaker 1: lock the car, and do everything that I need to
- 6:42Speaker 1: do within the president of you guys. I can just
- 6:45Speaker 1: go home. I had my daughters there right now, my three.
- 6:48Speaker 1: My daughter's birthday was yesterday. Test for me. I don't
- 6:52Speaker 1: want to refuse any pay and yes or no, it's
- 6:55Speaker 1: completely got to you us. Okay, So I think you've
- 6:58Speaker 1: had too much to drink to be driving. Chance back
- 7:05Speaker 1: when they did try to arrest him, that's when Ray
- 7:07Speaker 1: Schard Brooks struggled and he broke free, and there was
- 7:11Speaker 1: a bystanders video that showed that he did appare to
- 7:13Speaker 1: have a police taser in his hand, so he was
- 7:16Speaker 1: running and he possibly aimed the taser at the pursuing officers.
- 7:20Speaker 1: That's when one of them fired his gun. The officer
- 7:22Speaker 1: to fire the gun was Officer Gabrett Rolfe. He has
- 7:24Speaker 1: since been fired, and the other officer, Devin Brosen, is
- 7:28Speaker 1: on administrative duty right now now here is what Ray
- 7:32Speaker 1: Schard Brooks's wife to Mike A. Miller has to say.
- 7:35Speaker 1: I wish that they could have had sympthy or compassion.
- 7:38Speaker 1: I just feel like they didn't have to be so aggressive.
- 7:40Speaker 1: He was a great father, of great husband. He believed
- 7:44Speaker 1: in peace, he believed in love. He was a beautiful spirit.
- 7:48Speaker 1: He loved his family. He wanted to behold as he promised.
- 7:52Speaker 1: My daughter's saying that I know he wanted to come through.
- 7:55Speaker 1: Now I'm I feel like I'm a statistic I'm being
- 8:00Speaker 1: a single black parent and how by myself taking care
- 8:04Speaker 1: of four children. It is amazing to me. It's amazing
- 8:10Speaker 1: to me that police officers can be so tone deaf.
- 8:13Speaker 1: The world is in an outrage because of the unnecessary
- 8:15Speaker 1: killing of unarmed black people on this planet, and cops
- 8:18Speaker 1: still can't help but to kill one all black people.
- 8:21Speaker 1: It's like if you get caught cheating on your woman,
- 8:22Speaker 1: and you know when you're in that doghouse period, you
- 8:24Speaker 1: don't cheat while you're in that doghouse period. You gotta
- 8:27Speaker 1: be on your best behavior. I mean, if you're trying
- 8:29Speaker 1: to get your woman back, but if you don't give
- 8:30Speaker 1: a f you keep cheating. Clearly the cops don't give
- 8:33Speaker 1: a f Well, the way these restaurant where this took
- 8:36Speaker 1: place was set on fire and now police are offering
- 8:39Speaker 1: a ten thousand dollar reward. They also published photos of
- 8:42Speaker 1: what appeared to be a masked white woman who they
- 8:44Speaker 1: are looking for in connection with the fire, so they
- 8:47Speaker 1: said she was attempting to hide her identity. You can
- 8:50Speaker 1: see it looks like a young white woman. She's wearing
- 8:53Speaker 1: a black baseball cap, a face mask, and she's encouraging.
- 8:58Speaker 1: And it's a shame that that woman, whoever that is,
- 9:00Speaker 1: will probably end up in jail before the police officer
- 9:03Speaker 1: that actually killed killed his brother. So it almost feels like,
- 9:06Speaker 1: you know how back in the day in the constitution
- 9:08Speaker 1: it was a three fifth rule black people were just property.
- 9:11Speaker 1: Because clearly they care about that Wendy's building and that
- 9:14Speaker 1: property more than they do the body of a black
- 9:17Speaker 1: man and medical examiner's routed routed a murder. So it's
- 9:23Speaker 1: just like I didn't want to pronounce that word because
- 9:25Speaker 1: I haven't pronounced the right ever in my life. But
- 9:27Speaker 1: it's just like when when you I don't get it,
- 9:30Speaker 1: like when a police officer I don't. I don't. I
- 9:31Speaker 1: don't get it either. With everything going on in the world,
- 9:34Speaker 1: Like wouldn't you'd be like, you know what, let's let's
- 9:37Speaker 1: let's look at what's going on. The man has a taser,
- 9:40Speaker 1: he doesn't have a gun, and the taser as bright
- 9:42Speaker 1: as yellow. So it's not like it was a mistake.
- 9:44Speaker 1: It's not like, oh, well, no he doesn't and figure
- 9:47Speaker 1: it out. You got his car right there. So even
- 9:49Speaker 1: if he gets away on foot and he told you
- 9:53Speaker 1: where he lives, he said he just lived right up
- 9:55Speaker 1: the block exactly. You lost. It was his daughter. She
- 9:59Speaker 1: was supposed to be He was supposed to be taking
- 10:01Speaker 1: her roller skating for her birthday. They said she was
- 10:03Speaker 1: dressing ready to go Saturday morning, waiting for her dad
- 10:05Speaker 1: to come get her. Come on, man, come on man.
- 10:08Speaker 1: It just it just really baffles my mind that at
- 10:10Speaker 1: a time like this, when people are burning things down,
- 10:14Speaker 1: when people are upset, when people aren't enraged, that doesn't
- 10:17Speaker 1: even make police officers think twice, like come on, bro,
- 10:20Speaker 1: I'm all right, that is front page news. Get it
- 10:23Speaker 1: off your chest. Eight hundred five eight five one oh

- 13:19Speaker 1: I just gotta say that all this going on, just
- 13:22Speaker 1: protecting and everything. I'm be hanging one hundred percent. But
- 13:26Speaker 1: it's like they're not listening to us. They're looking at
- 13:29Speaker 1: us like a big show and laughing at us. That's
- 13:32Speaker 1: a white feel, and you only sphere these cups is
- 13:34Speaker 1: actually going to listen to us. We have to take
- 13:37Speaker 1: their buckets. We have to take your money. We have
- 13:40Speaker 1: to take. Once you start taking the fucket, that's where
- 13:43Speaker 1: they're gonna actually say, hold up, let's see what they're doing,
- 13:46Speaker 1: because right now these cups obviously don't care. Before they
- 13:50Speaker 1: get off of it, being fired is nothing. Everybody gets
- 13:53Speaker 1: fired to be knowing again, but he's not suffering any consequestion.
- 13:57Speaker 1: There was a regular guy who did that murder, he
- 14:00Speaker 1: would have been in jail already and then waited playing vestigation.
- 14:03Speaker 1: That's right. I mean, the oldest with new people is
- 14:07Speaker 1: gonna absolutely listen. We have to take their pockets. I
- 14:11Speaker 1: mean I hear shall I mean talking about it all
- 14:12Speaker 1: the time, de fund defund here. But you have to
- 14:15Speaker 1: even good people hear their pockets when you start taking
- 14:18Speaker 1: the money. I mean motor the times. One hundred percent
- 14:21Speaker 1: of the time we buy their products. We support them,
- 14:26Speaker 1: and we not that you need to. We can have
- 14:28Speaker 1: come together and say yes, you're not gonna shopper them
- 14:32Speaker 1: because for some reason we always have to go back
- 14:34Speaker 1: and shop from them and buy suffers. Look at the Jews.
- 14:38Speaker 1: Did Jews stay together. As much as they don't like
- 14:41Speaker 1: each other, they're gonna support them because that's their community.
- 14:45Speaker 1: That's their people. They're gonna support. We are black people.
- 14:48Speaker 1: We're gonna hear somebody one of our own and don't
- 14:51Speaker 1: support them and work to the white man and support
- 14:53Speaker 1: them just to get by them. But if you watch
- 14:56Speaker 1: the white community and the Jews community there, Suppo shut up. Yeah,
- 15:01Speaker 1: absolutely right. Other communities definitely support each other. We need
- 15:04Speaker 1: to support each other. But also with officers when they
- 15:06Speaker 1: get arrested, I mean, and they get in it and
- 15:09Speaker 1: they found guilty, they shouldn't be able to use the
- 15:11Speaker 1: taxpayers money to pay it to pay out other families
- 15:14Speaker 1: that that's not right. They make a mistake. They all, yeah,
- 15:17Speaker 1: they shouldn't be able to do that either. That's why
- 15:19Speaker 1: they're trying to end qualified immunity, you know, so they
- 15:22Speaker 1: can hold the officers personally accountable, holding sold them accountable
- 15:26Speaker 1: as individuals, you know. And that's that's my model. My
- 15:28Speaker 1: motto is, uh pensions of prisons. You know, choices yours.
- 15:32Speaker 1: If an officer had to choose between getting his pension
- 15:35Speaker 1: taken away forever and being financially responsible to this family
- 15:38Speaker 1: for his negligence, or he had to choose between you know,
- 15:41Speaker 1: actually going to prison, those are two things that would
- 15:44Speaker 1: probably make them to think twice about doing things like
- 15:46Speaker 1: shooting brothers like uh Chard Raychard Brooks is his name, right,
- 15:50Speaker 1: Rachard Brooks in the back. All right, get it off
- 15:52Speaker 1: your chest. Eight hundred five eight five, one oh five one.
- 15:55Speaker 1: If you need to vent, you can hit this something now.
- 15:57Speaker 1: We got rooms all the way he has and know

- 16:43Speaker 1: had to say on his special. Here is what Dave
- 16:46Speaker 1: Chappelle said about Candice Owens. I watched everything everybody since
- 16:50Speaker 1: I seenk Cannice Owens try to convince White America don't
- 16:53Speaker 1: worry about it. He's a criminal anyway. I don't care
- 16:57Speaker 1: what this did. I don't care personally, Canda someones and
- 17:02Speaker 1: her stinky. I don't know if it stinks, but I
- 17:07Speaker 1: imagine it does. If I ever find out, I'll let
- 17:10Speaker 1: you know for sure, I'll tell. Like a Zelia Banks,
- 17:12Speaker 1: I'll tell now. She responded to every Democrat tweeting me
- 17:16Speaker 1: the clip of Dave Chappelle insulting me. I'm not a leftist.
- 17:18Speaker 1: I have a sense of humor, and I think comedians
- 17:20Speaker 1: should make fun of people. Dave Chappelle is one of
- 17:23Speaker 1: the greatest comedians of all time, and I made it
- 17:25Speaker 1: into one of his specials. That's power. We've arrived too
- 17:28Speaker 1: suddenly into a culture where people can't laugh at themselves
- 17:30Speaker 1: or want to restrain comedians. I will never be a
- 17:33Speaker 1: part of that culture. At Dave Chappelle, you are a legend,
- 17:35Speaker 1: and I'd love to meet you and challenge you to
- 17:37Speaker 1: say any of that to my face or lovey. He's
- 17:40Speaker 1: excited about the attention exactly. You don't have to like it.
- 17:43Speaker 1: But she's absolutely right in that situation. Okay. And by
- 17:46Speaker 1: the way, that lets me know Canada Soones is invincible,
- 17:48Speaker 1: She's unstoppable. Hating her, talking bad about her, calling her out,
- 17:52Speaker 1: you ain't doing nothing but making her strongle you hate
- 17:54Speaker 1: your hate for her is empowering her. What you thought
- 17:56Speaker 1: she was gonna be mad at what Dave said? Just
- 18:00Speaker 1: just say my name all right? Now? Now here's what
- 18:03Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle had had to say about Don Lemon. So
- 18:06Speaker 1: the other night, I'm in my little clubhouse and I'm
- 18:09Speaker 1: watching Don Lemon. He says, where are all these celebrities?
- 18:13Speaker 1: Why aren't you talking? You said everybody? I was screaming
- 18:16Speaker 1: at the TV. I dare you to save me? Now?
- 18:19Speaker 1: Has anyone ever listened to me do comedy? Have I
- 18:22Speaker 1: not ever said anything about these things before? So now
- 18:26Speaker 1: all of a sudden, this expects me to step in
- 18:30Speaker 1: front of the streets and talk over the work these
- 18:33Speaker 1: people are doing as a celebrity, asking me, do you
- 18:38Speaker 1: want to see a celebrity right now? Do we give
- 18:40Speaker 1: them with job? Rule things? Now? John Lemon was also
- 18:43Speaker 1: flattered to be mentioned in Dave Chappelle's stand up because
- 18:46Speaker 1: he said he's his favorite comedian, and here's his response
- 18:50Speaker 1: to Dave Chappelle's jokes. Dave Chappelle is my favorite comedian,
- 18:54Speaker 1: and I do care what Dave Chappelle says. But I
- 18:57Speaker 1: do think that this is not a moment from modesty.
- 19:00Speaker 1: I think it's a moment that we should all be
- 19:02Speaker 1: using our platform to do whatever we can and at
- 19:07Speaker 1: least to show those young people and those people out
- 19:09Speaker 1: there that we support them, and that's all they need
- 19:12Speaker 1: to know. But the irony is is that his special,
- 19:14Speaker 1: it is called A forty six, he's talking about this issue,
- 19:18Speaker 1: and I think it's great he's using his platform to
- 19:20Speaker 1: talk about this and the way that he can. A
- 19:22Speaker 1: lot of people mad at Non for that, though, because
- 19:24Speaker 1: the problem with what Don did is he didn't know
- 19:26Speaker 1: what people were doing. He didn't know what people had planned.
- 19:28Speaker 1: He just jumped out there and started calling folks out.
- 19:31Speaker 1: A lot of folks didn't like that. It just didn't
- 19:33Speaker 1: seem right what he did it. I heard it live
- 19:34Speaker 1: because I was actually watching it when he said, it
- 19:36Speaker 1: just didn't seem natural. It just didn't, you know. I mean,
- 19:38Speaker 1: he was he was vamping, he was trying to kill time.
- 19:40Speaker 1: You could tell that they were in his ear. They
- 19:42Speaker 1: was showing the b roll of all approaches, showing the
- 19:44Speaker 1: b roll riots, and he just started going at this
- 19:48Speaker 1: is where we need to call out. Why'd you call
- 19:50Speaker 1: out to cast the blackish? What did the aphony athon
- 19:53Speaker 1: to Tracy Ellis Ross have anything to do with this?
- 19:55Speaker 1: Come on, man, all right, now, let's discuss something else
- 19:59Speaker 1: that happened for the weekend b Simone. They were blasting her,
- 20:03Speaker 1: and that is because she has a book out and
- 20:05Speaker 1: she has plagiarized, allegedly other authors for her book. So
- 20:11Speaker 1: a lot of people were calling for her to be canceled.
- 20:13Speaker 1: Mike Mill did come to her defense. He said, give
- 20:16Speaker 1: me your point. Why a girl from where we come
- 20:17Speaker 1: from should be canceled because she finessed a little bit.
- 20:20Speaker 1: I really want to know how people really think. And
- 20:23Speaker 1: then he said, I've never even checked what she really did.
- 20:25Speaker 1: I'm just tired of seeing blacks canceling blacks. They got
- 20:28Speaker 1: us ranked in last place. Already, chill with that, Ish. Well,
- 20:31Speaker 1: the problem is some writers are accusing her of copying
- 20:34Speaker 1: their work. L of Boss Girl bloggers became aware of
- 20:37Speaker 1: the issue via email, and it's really definitely word for
- 20:40Speaker 1: word what she had written. So she said, it's been
- 20:42Speaker 1: brought to my attention that Be Simone is selling a
- 20:45Speaker 1: book with my content and it word for words years
- 20:47Speaker 1: making a profit off of plagiarized content of smaller content creators,
- 20:51Speaker 1: and caused herself an entrepreneur. And then she posted a
- 20:53Speaker 1: shout of her content and then be Simone's book and
- 20:56Speaker 1: she said, this is not entrepreneurship. It's disgusting. Question, real question,
- 21:01Speaker 1: and I'm not being shady. What does b Simone do?
- 21:04Speaker 1: I know? She said she's she's so makeup at one time,
- 21:07Speaker 1: I believe she had an old makeup line. But what what?
- 21:09Speaker 1: What else did she because I don't know and I'm
- 21:11Speaker 1: not saying being shade, I'm just curious. She's a comedian,
- 21:14Speaker 1: she's an artist, a recording artist also. So B Simone
- 21:19Speaker 1: did respond via DM. She said, if you know her,
- 21:21Speaker 1: please tell her. I'm trying to contact her via DM.
- 21:24Speaker 1: I would never intentionally do that. I hired a design firm.
- 21:27Speaker 1: I had no idea the book was removed and I
- 21:29Speaker 1: want to handle this asap. Please tell her to check
- 21:31Speaker 1: her DM. Thank you I have. I'm so confused that
- 21:34Speaker 1: everything that's going on right now with this. I don't
- 21:36Speaker 1: know anything about this, and that's what I'm saying. I'm confused.
- 21:39Speaker 1: I thought I thought she did. I didn't know what
- 21:43Speaker 1: was the book about. It was just like that, I
- 21:46Speaker 1: know how to manifest. Yeah, manifest. She's the man, She's
- 21:50Speaker 1: the manifest queen, right, Yes. The problem. The problem is
- 21:55Speaker 1: that she plagiarized other content creators work word for word
- 21:59Speaker 1: in her book. Listen, so other people that are working.
- 22:03Speaker 1: So you know, I'm hip. I'm hip hip kids, the
- 22:07Speaker 1: kids keep me young, Okay, I'll be hitting up my
- 22:11Speaker 1: nieces like, yo, who is what's going on here? Now?
- 22:14Speaker 1: Why people mad at her? And then you know, I
- 22:17Speaker 1: don't care as soon as all right now. Vanessa Brian
- 22:20Speaker 1: said that her family has had to block fan accounts
- 22:22Speaker 1: because of the constant reminders of Kobe and Gianna and
- 22:26Speaker 1: the pictures that these fan accounts have been posting, even
- 22:29Speaker 1: though they don't have any ill intent. She said, thanks
- 22:30Speaker 1: so much for all the love, Natalia Brian and I
- 22:33Speaker 1: have unfortunately had to block fan pages because it's been
- 22:35Speaker 1: really hard to go online and constantly see pics of
- 22:37Speaker 1: our beloved Gig and Kobe under every single square of
- 22:41Speaker 1: our explore pages. Blocking the fan pages has helped change
- 22:43Speaker 1: the algorithm. We love you, but please understand that we
- 22:46Speaker 1: had to do this for our own healing, not because
- 22:48Speaker 1: we don't appreciate your love. I get it makes sense,
- 22:51Speaker 1: I get it. That makes all the sense in the world,
- 22:53Speaker 1: makes all the sense in the world because it um
- 22:56Speaker 1: because it's just a constant reminder. I don't think that
- 22:58Speaker 1: anybody wants to forget. It's just that, you know, it
- 23:01Speaker 1: comes in ebbs and floors. I felt like that this
- 23:02Speaker 1: weekend with Jazzica. But you know, she just passed away
- 23:05Speaker 1: this weekend. So it's just like when you go on
- 23:07Speaker 1: her page, some post make you feel good, some post
- 23:10Speaker 1: make you feel sad. That's just that's just the way
- 23:12Speaker 1: it is, you know. All Right, Well, I'm Angela Yee
- 23:15Speaker 1: and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you,
- 23:17Speaker 1: miss Ye. Now we got front page news. Next we'll
- 23:19Speaker 1: be talking about yes and we'll give you some details
- 23:21Speaker 1: about Robert Fuller and Malcolm Harsh, two black men who
- 23:24Speaker 1: were found hanging in California. All Right, we'll get into
- 23:28Speaker 1: that next. Keeping lot this to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning,
- 23:31Speaker 1: everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the Guy we
- 23:35Speaker 1: all the breakfast club. Let's get in some front page news.
- 23:40Speaker 1: Are we starting you? Well? People are demanding justice for
- 23:44Speaker 1: Robert Fuller. He was found hanging from a tree near
- 23:48Speaker 1: Palmdale City Hall in California on June tenth. He was
- 23:51Speaker 1: found by a passer by at about three forty am. Now,
- 23:55Speaker 1: the city did release a statement. They said his death
- 23:57Speaker 1: was a suicide and they said it was connected to
- 24:00Speaker 1: the coronavirus pandemic. They said many people are suffering extreme
- 24:04Speaker 1: mental anguish and the city wants everyone to know that
- 24:07Speaker 1: help is available. However, Robert Fullest friends and family believed
- 24:11Speaker 1: that he was lynched. They think their police jump to
- 24:14Speaker 1: conclusions by ruling out a hate crime so quickly, And
- 24:17Speaker 1: now the city is even reversing their stance and saying
- 24:20Speaker 1: that they need to do an independent investigation in autopsy,
- 24:24Speaker 1: and they do support a full investigation into his death.
- 24:27Speaker 1: In addition, there was another man, Malcolm Harsh and Victorville, California,
- 24:32Speaker 1: and his body was found May thirty first, and so
- 24:36Speaker 1: that's a second person. His body was found hanging from
- 24:38Speaker 1: a tree outside of La Oh. For me to believe
- 24:42Speaker 1: that all of these things are coincidence is especially being
- 24:45Speaker 1: hanging themselves outside on trees. I don't believe that, not
- 24:51Speaker 1: in the slightest and they should do an independent investigation.
- 24:53Speaker 1: They should in all three cases absolutely. And in the
- 24:57Speaker 1: world where we where everything is on camera, has none
- 25:00Speaker 1: of this on video. There's no like cameras outside in
- 25:02Speaker 1: these areas where these hanging themselves, like, nobody sees any
- 25:07Speaker 1: of this. In a world where everything's on camera at
- 25:09Speaker 1: all times, nobody's getting video this. And then you remember
- 25:13Speaker 1: what they said that George Floyd. First, at first they
- 25:15Speaker 1: said it wasn't because the officer's knee was on his neck,
- 25:18Speaker 1: and then they had to get an independent person to
- 25:20Speaker 1: come in and check it out, and they said, no,
- 25:22Speaker 1: that is the reason. So yeah, definitely get an independent
- 25:24Speaker 1: person to check those things out. Yeah. For Robert Fuller,
- 25:26Speaker 1: they said there were no working security cameras in the area,
- 25:29Speaker 1: so they don't have any footage of that. Now the
- 25:31Speaker 1: mayor and Robert Fullis case said that the reasons why
- 25:35Speaker 1: they said all signs pointed to suicide. They were apparently
- 25:37Speaker 1: scarred and his body consistent with previous attempts. But you know,
- 25:41Speaker 1: according to Robert Fullis's brother, he said, my brother was
- 25:44Speaker 1: not suicidal. My brother was just with me not too
- 25:47Speaker 1: long ago, and the family doesn't believe that. Well, you
- 25:49Speaker 1: never know what somebody's going through, So that's that that
- 25:53Speaker 1: right there is definitely not a good excuse because you
- 25:55Speaker 1: just don't know what somebody may be going through. They
- 25:57Speaker 1: may present something to you, but they may have some
- 26:00Speaker 1: whole other issues going on within their mind. Right, But
- 26:03Speaker 1: as a family member, I think you would feel that
- 26:05Speaker 1: way also and demand an investigation and be like there
- 26:08Speaker 1: were no selling of course of this all right? In
- 26:10Speaker 1: San Francisco, police officers will be replaced with trained, unarmed
- 26:15Speaker 1: professionals when responding to calls for help on non criminal
- 26:18Speaker 1: matters involving mental health, the homeless, school discipline, and neighbor disputes.
- 26:23Speaker 1: So instead of police officers now they're going to have
- 26:26Speaker 1: people who are trained with that whole thing, because they
- 26:28Speaker 1: said police officers just sometimes aren't equipped to deal with
- 26:31Speaker 1: mental health issues with homeless, with neighbor disputes and things
- 26:35Speaker 1: like that, and there's no reason for these type of
- 26:37Speaker 1: calls to involve the police tests when things tend to escalate.
- 26:40Speaker 1: So that's their plan moving forward, and it's similar to
- 26:43Speaker 1: a plan called the CAHOOTS program in Eugene, Oregon, where
- 26:46Speaker 1: a medic and a mental health crisis manager respond to
- 26:48Speaker 1: emergency calls for help with individuals who are suffering from
- 26:51Speaker 1: severe mental illness, addiction, and homelessness. Yeah, I think that's great.
- 26:56Speaker 1: I think that's great. I think I think the police
- 26:58Speaker 1: should come with them, But I do, like, give you
- 27:00Speaker 1: let them start, because they see. The whole thing is
- 27:03Speaker 1: is somebody a doctor will understand what's going on, can
- 27:06Speaker 1: and be able to talk to somebody and see exactly
- 27:08Speaker 1: what's going on, you know, at all cases. Yeah, I
- 27:10Speaker 1: agree with that, but the problem with the police officers
- 27:13Speaker 1: they don't know how to escalate those situations. So let's
- 27:15Speaker 1: say that they go to somebody's house and you know,
- 27:17Speaker 1: the person has a manic episode. All police know how
- 27:19Speaker 1: to do is lay somebody down, clearly, you know what
- 27:21Speaker 1: I mean. It would be different if if if police
- 27:24Speaker 1: weren't the way that they were. And I'm not saying
- 27:26Speaker 1: all police are like that, but it's hard to say
- 27:27Speaker 1: all police aren't like that because all we see it
- 27:28Speaker 1: is the ones that are like that. So it's hard
- 27:30Speaker 1: to you know, go there and just defuse the situation.
- 27:33Speaker 1: But honestly, That's what I needed a few months ago,
- 27:35Speaker 1: because you know, we made a call to the police
- 27:37Speaker 1: to do a wellness check on someone and they said
- 27:39Speaker 1: that they couldn't even go because the person, uh wasn't
- 27:43Speaker 1: in any imminent danger, That's what they said. And because
- 27:47Speaker 1: because the last time we spoke to the person, the
- 27:50Speaker 1: person said they were fine, you know, and you to
- 27:53Speaker 1: me even though yeah, I told you, you told me that,
- 27:57Speaker 1: which is bubb because one time I was out of
- 27:59Speaker 1: town and I called the house. My wife didn't pick up,
- 28:01Speaker 1: and I called my daughter's phone and she didn't pick up.
- 28:04Speaker 1: And when I checked the cameras on the house, the
- 28:05Speaker 1: cameras were out. So I called the police to make
- 28:07Speaker 1: a wellness check and they were able to do it.
- 28:09Speaker 1: So I wonder if different states have different laws and
- 28:11Speaker 1: different rules, because they were able to make a wellness check.
- 28:14Speaker 1: You know, I don't know, I won it was in LA.
- 28:18Speaker 1: But yeah, we definitely needed that. Whatever Sanrancisco got, nawt,
- 28:21Speaker 1: we definitely needed that a few months ago, right, And
- 28:23Speaker 1: these are non criminal calls, and I think it makes
- 28:25Speaker 1: perfect sense. You know, we've seen things where somebody with
- 28:28Speaker 1: mental illness, the family member calls the police because they
- 28:31Speaker 1: don't know how to handle the situation and then things
- 28:34Speaker 1: go completely left. So something like this can actually prevent
- 28:37Speaker 1: that from happening and helped the few situations instead of
- 28:39Speaker 1: escalating them. Right, all right, well that is your front
- 28:43Speaker 1: page news. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when
- 28:45Speaker 1: we come back, let's open up the phone lines eight
- 28:47Speaker 1: hundred five eight five, one oh five one the NBA.
- 28:51Speaker 1: Do you feel the NBA should come back? The players
- 28:54Speaker 1: have had meetings about this. Some players feel like, yeah,
- 28:56Speaker 1: we want to get back to the games, and some
- 28:58Speaker 1: players feel like, nah, we actually have some some audio
- 29:02Speaker 1: of Stephen Jackson. Can you play the audio? Eddie. I
- 29:05Speaker 1: love the NBA, man, but now at the time to
- 29:07Speaker 1: be playing basketball, y'all, playing basketball is gonna do one thing,
- 29:10Speaker 1: take all the attention off the task at hand right now,
- 29:13Speaker 1: what we're fighting for. None of these white owners have
- 29:16Speaker 1: spoken up. Yeah, they might post a video when the
- 29:18Speaker 1: season start, are saying what we should do, but they
- 29:20Speaker 1: ain't doing nothing playing basketball. Angle donner, but make them
- 29:23Speaker 1: money and take the attention of what we're fighting for.
- 29:27Speaker 1: It's bigger than all of us, and it's bigger than
- 29:28Speaker 1: the game. And I'm sad that we still got explained
- 29:31Speaker 1: at the people bro. So we're asking what are your
- 29:35Speaker 1: thoughts eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Seems like Kyrie Irvin doesn't want the season to begin.
- 29:41Speaker 1: He doesn't want to play this season, but there's NBA
- 29:45Speaker 1: players and Lebron does believe that you can still play
- 29:48Speaker 1: and impact social justice. So when we come back, we'll
- 29:52Speaker 1: take your calls. Eight hundred five eight five one oh
- 29:54Speaker 1: five one. What do you think? It's the Breakfast Club,
- 29:57Speaker 1: Good morning, call in right now at your opinion to
- 30:04Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club top break it down. Eight hundred five
- 30:07Speaker 1: eight five one oh five one. The Breakfast Club, it's

- 30:31Speaker 1: Club good morning that if you just joined us, we're
- 30:34Speaker 1: talking about the NBA. Should the NBA be open? Should
- 30:37Speaker 1: they allow of players to get back to playing and
- 30:39Speaker 1: start playing some games? So players have different opinions on this,
- 30:44Speaker 1: right ye, he asked. Kyrie Irving doesn't think that the
- 30:47Speaker 1: NBA should be opening back up into Orlando right now,
- 30:50Speaker 1: and he says that there's only twenty guys actually getting paid.
- 30:53Speaker 1: I'm part of that. Let's not pretend there's not a
- 30:55Speaker 1: tiered system purposely to divide all of us. Lebron believes
- 30:58Speaker 1: that you can still play in Orlando and impact social justice,
- 31:01Speaker 1: and he wants to return to playing Orlando, but he's
- 31:04Speaker 1: also a public and prominent supporter of Black Lives Matter
- 31:06Speaker 1: and social justice carts as well, and he also just
- 31:09Speaker 1: started his more Than a Vote campaign now. Stephen Jackson
- 31:12Speaker 1: believes that the NBA shouldn't be playing here his audio.
- 31:15Speaker 1: I love the NBA, man, but now at the time
- 31:18Speaker 1: to be playing basketball, y'all, playing basketball is gonna do
- 31:20Speaker 1: one thing, take all the attention off the task at
- 31:24Speaker 1: hand right now what we're fighting for. None of these
- 31:26Speaker 1: white owners, I've spoken up. Yeah, they might post a
- 31:28Speaker 1: video when the season start are saying what we should do,
- 31:31Speaker 1: but they ain't doing nothing playing basketball angle dinner, but
- 31:34Speaker 1: make them money and take the attention of what we're
- 31:37Speaker 1: fighting for. It's bigger than all of us, and it's
- 31:39Speaker 1: bigger than the game. And I'm sad that we still
- 31:41Speaker 1: got explained at the people. Bro Stell let me ask
- 31:43Speaker 1: you what do you think? What do you think you?
- 31:45Speaker 1: First of all, I think it's up to the players,
- 31:47Speaker 1: and I from my understanding, a lot of the players
- 31:48Speaker 1: do want to go back to playing. I also feel
- 31:50Speaker 1: like that's a great platform to be able to promote
- 31:53Speaker 1: everything that's happening and discuss it and play in honor
- 31:57Speaker 1: of those people who are suffering and people have been
- 31:59Speaker 1: killed in family members and all of that, and to
- 32:02Speaker 1: actually be able to make that money to donate to
- 32:04Speaker 1: causes and bring attention to things. So I do feel
- 32:07Speaker 1: like you can do that and play basketball before we
- 32:12Speaker 1: go to ushall Man, I feel that the players should play.
- 32:15Speaker 1: I mean, I'm you know, Lebron has made statements before
- 32:18Speaker 1: wearing T shirts before the games with the world watching.
- 32:21Speaker 1: Not only that, you gotta think not just a lot
- 32:23Speaker 1: of these players that's making millions and millions and millions
- 32:26Speaker 1: of dollars, like your Kyrie IRV and then your Lebron James.
- 32:28Speaker 1: There's some players that are not making that much money
- 32:30Speaker 1: and they rely on this check. This is how they
- 32:32Speaker 1: pay for their rent and pay for their family. And
- 32:35Speaker 1: if the NBA doesn't play, the NBA players risk the
- 32:37Speaker 1: possibility of losing all their game checks, so I definitely
- 32:40Speaker 1: feel like you should play Disney open States are opening,
- 32:44Speaker 1: like every the world is opening up. So I think
- 32:47Speaker 1: if you say, okay, NBA not opening, I think it
- 32:49Speaker 1: just hurts the players. Like Disney members pointed that out
- 32:52Speaker 1: for himself as well. He said of the NBA hasn't
- 32:54Speaker 1: made the money, A guy like Kyrie has not to
- 32:57Speaker 1: mention NBA basketball. It's predominantly African American and a lot
- 33:00Speaker 1: about audiences too, gentlemen, I hear both sides. I respect
- 33:06Speaker 1: both sides. I understand what Stephen Jackson is saying, and
- 33:08Speaker 1: I understand what the people who want to play as saying.
- 33:11Speaker 1: I don't think, but personally, I don't think the NBA
- 33:13Speaker 1: distracts from anything that's going on. I think it actually
- 33:15Speaker 1: heightens what's going on. It can bring more eyes to
- 33:18Speaker 1: what's going on. At players will be out there doing
- 33:21Speaker 1: their own demonstrations, wearing T shirts, taking knees. Protesters can
- 33:25Speaker 1: protest outside of the arenas. It's not like they have
- 33:28Speaker 1: fans in the stands, so nobody's at harm there. And
- 33:31Speaker 1: by the way, it's not like NBA players are out
- 33:33Speaker 1: there protesting on the front lines. I know, I saw
- 33:36Speaker 1: Russell westins of others in LA. Yeah, but it's not
- 33:39Speaker 1: like they're out there every day. And let's be clear
- 33:41Speaker 1: about one thing and one thing only, the NBA. That's
- 33:44Speaker 1: those guys job, all right. People are going back to work, Okay.
- 33:49Speaker 1: NBA players want to go back to work, and it's
- 33:51Speaker 1: safe for them to go back to work. Let them
- 33:53Speaker 1: go back to work and make some money. I personally
- 33:55Speaker 1: don't think it's distracting at all. I'm one of those
- 33:57Speaker 1: people who knows that black people can chew gum and
- 34:00Speaker 1: walk at the same time. And that's why you gotta
- 34:02Speaker 1: have a mean inside outside game. Okay. You gotta have
- 34:04Speaker 1: people on the outside doing what they do, and you
- 34:06Speaker 1: gotta have people on the inside doing what they do.
- 34:08Speaker 1: And I think that the NBA can actually heighten what's
- 34:11Speaker 1: going on on the outside. So I don't think it's
- 34:12Speaker 1: distracting at all. And another concern that they have is
- 34:15Speaker 1: with the ownership not really stepping up and also supporting
- 34:18Speaker 1: all of these movements. And that's when you got to
- 34:20Speaker 1: put that pressure on as well. Let's go to the
- 34:22Speaker 1: phone line. Who's this shyant Hey, Now we're talking to NBA.
- 34:27Speaker 1: Do you think the NBA should come back. You think
- 34:29Speaker 1: they should start playing again? Um, I feel like that
- 34:32Speaker 1: they should. I could also argue both sides, but I
- 34:36Speaker 1: feel like they should because as right now, a lot
- 34:38Speaker 1: of the children are out of school, the young children, UM,
- 34:42Speaker 1: I'm seeking the teenagers. Instead of them being out here
- 34:48Speaker 1: or running around doing things they shouldn't be doing, they
- 34:50Speaker 1: could be at the home watching a game. Okay, Okay,
- 34:55Speaker 1: I mean that's that's true too. Where these kids would be,
- 34:57Speaker 1: you know, doing something, They'll be home watching the games
- 34:59Speaker 1: instead of being out side. That's a good way to
- 35:00Speaker 1: think about it. Eight hundred five eight five one oh
- 35:03Speaker 1: five one. We're talking about the NBA season. Do you
- 35:05Speaker 1: think the NBA season should come back? Call us up now,
- 35:07Speaker 1: it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, call and your opinions
- 35:19Speaker 1: to the Breakfast Club top on eight hundred five five
- 35:23Speaker 1: one five one morning. Everybody is Dja, Envy, Angela Yee,
- 35:29Speaker 1: Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. If you
- 35:32Speaker 1: just join us, we're talking about the NBA season. We're
- 35:34Speaker 1: asking do you think the NBA season should come back?
- 35:37Speaker 1: All right? A couple of players feel like, no, they
- 35:39Speaker 1: don't want to play this season, and some other players
- 35:41Speaker 1: feel like, Yeah, we're losing money. We want to get
- 35:43Speaker 1: back to playing, we want to get back to getting
- 35:45Speaker 1: out checks. Let's open up the phone line. Hello, who's
- 35:48Speaker 1: this yo from? Hey? What's up, Matt? We're talking to
- 35:52Speaker 1: NBA season. What are you thinking? No, man, they should
- 35:55Speaker 1: just go ahead and leave it a long chail for
- 35:56Speaker 1: a whole another season. Ain't nobody I'm protesting you to
- 35:59Speaker 1: that plat form like Kylind Kaepernick did in the NFL.
- 36:02Speaker 1: Anybody was gonna do if anybody really gonna be about
- 36:05Speaker 1: that action, and if they are gonna protest during something,
- 36:08Speaker 1: that's really not gonna make a difference right now. Honestly,
- 36:12Speaker 1: why do you think nobody's gonna do that when they've
- 36:13Speaker 1: done it before, like you've seen Lebron James. Then where
- 36:16Speaker 1: that I can't breathe, teacher, because that's all he's done.
- 36:22Speaker 1: That's not gonna make enough change. The shirt is not
- 36:25Speaker 1: gonna do anything. And if he go out there and protest,
- 36:27Speaker 1: are gonna right, that's not gonna do anything. They excuse
- 36:30Speaker 1: that platform somehow like Colin Kaepernicklee kneeled during national answering,
- 36:35Speaker 1: and then if they made that kind of statement, then yes,
- 36:38Speaker 1: I would support them coming back. I don't think they will.
- 36:40Speaker 1: This is gonna make the white man just a little
- 36:41Speaker 1: bit more money and not gonna bring enough attention to
- 36:43Speaker 1: the calls. That's it. They're gonna make themselves a lot
- 36:46Speaker 1: more money too. And I don't know if you know,
- 36:47Speaker 1: but some of those NBA players are actually funding people
- 36:50Speaker 1: that are on the ground, on the front lines. They're
- 36:53Speaker 1: funding some of these movements at the front line protests. Yeah,
- 36:57Speaker 1: but I've heard of the fun things test that money
- 37:01Speaker 1: doesn't we go anywhere. I've heard that the BLM fund
- 37:04Speaker 1: hasn't went anywhere at all. So you may haven't went anywhere.
- 37:08Speaker 1: Difference right nowhere you say, haven't haven't gone, haven't gone anywhere.
- 37:13Speaker 1: People got to bail protesters out of jail, right right,
- 37:16Speaker 1: But that's the same the jail is not going anywhere.
- 37:20Speaker 1: I mean, that's doing a lot. Those people on the
- 37:22Speaker 1: front lines, protester for all of us. I mean, they
- 37:25Speaker 1: get locked up, they need lawyers, we got a bail amount.
- 37:28Speaker 1: So there's a lot going on, and a lot of
- 37:30Speaker 1: those NBA players all funding that or helping to fund that,
- 37:33Speaker 1: making sure families can travel to where they need to
- 37:35Speaker 1: travel to. But thank you brother. Hello, who's this? Hey?
- 37:39Speaker 1: Are you doing? My name? Darell Man? Durrell? What's up?
- 37:41Speaker 1: We're talking about the NBA season. You think they should
- 37:43Speaker 1: come back this year? I do not. I agree with
- 37:46Speaker 1: what we're saying. I think that right now, we got
- 37:50Speaker 1: the light, we got the mantle, and we're being heard,
- 37:52Speaker 1: and I think that it's just gonna cause a distraction. Um.
- 37:55Speaker 1: Not only that, but with this pandemic going on in
- 37:57Speaker 1: the NBA was one of the first places where the
- 37:59Speaker 1: pandemic happened. So I think we can sit out this year.
- 38:02Speaker 1: You know, Lena, get everybody about to be well by
- 38:06Speaker 1: next year. And uh, right now, like I said, we'd
- 38:08Speaker 1: be heard. That's the main focal point. Right now, we'll
- 38:10Speaker 1: see so many different places of opening up, like Disney
- 38:13Speaker 1: is opening up, Broke Hershey Park is opening up. A
- 38:15Speaker 1: lot of these places are opening up where there's gonna
- 38:17Speaker 1: be a lot of flood of people. And you gotta
- 38:19Speaker 1: remember there is no fans in the stands. It's just
- 38:22Speaker 1: those players. They're gonna be in a particular hotel and
- 38:23Speaker 1: they're gonna be quarantined altogether. Okay, I mean, but still,
- 38:28Speaker 1: I think, like I said in Light, of everything that's
- 38:30Speaker 1: going on right now in America. I do think that
- 38:32Speaker 1: it's just gonna cause a distraction. I'm gonna be honest
- 38:34Speaker 1: with you. I am very confused by people saying this
- 38:37Speaker 1: will be a distraction. It's not like there haven't been
- 38:39Speaker 1: athletes who have played and fought for social justice before.
- 38:43Speaker 1: Some of the loudest moments in social justice history have
- 38:46Speaker 1: happened in sports, John Carlos and Tommy Smith off the Olympics.
- 38:50Speaker 1: People like Kareema i've Ul Jabal, Colin Kaepernick taking the knee,
- 38:53Speaker 1: Jim Brown, Muhammad Ali, like these people have used their
- 38:57Speaker 1: platforms to heighten whatever movement they were behind. Fine, I
- 39:00Speaker 1: don't understand why we're acting like this would be a distraction.
- 39:02Speaker 1: That is confusing to me. All Right, eight hundred five
- 39:05Speaker 1: eight five, one oh five one. We'll take some more
- 39:08Speaker 1: your calls when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Good Mornings, and your opinions to the Breakfast Club top
- 39:22Speaker 1: on eight. I did five eight five, one oh five
- 39:25Speaker 1: one morning. Everybody is DJ Envy and Jela Yee, Charlomne
- 39:31Speaker 1: the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Now,
- 39:33Speaker 1: if you just joined us, we're talking about the NBA
- 39:35Speaker 1: season and should it return on Stephen Jackson, he says, no,
- 39:39Speaker 1: let's play his audio. I love the NBA, man, but
- 39:42Speaker 1: now at the time to be playing basketball, y'all, playing
- 39:44Speaker 1: basketball is gonna do one thing, take all the attention
- 39:48Speaker 1: off the task at hand right now, what we're fighting for.
- 39:50Speaker 1: None of these white owners have spoken up. Yeah, they
- 39:53Speaker 1: might post a video when the season start, are saying
- 39:55Speaker 1: what we should do, but they ain't doing nothing playing basketball.
- 39:58Speaker 1: Angle don but make them money and take the attention
- 40:01Speaker 1: of what we're fighting for. It's bigger than all of us,
- 40:04Speaker 1: and it's bigger than the game. And I'm sad that
- 40:06Speaker 1: we still got to explained at the people bro. A
- 40:08Speaker 1: lot of other players feel like they want to play.
- 40:10Speaker 1: Lebron wants to play. So we're asking eight hundred five
- 40:13Speaker 1: eight five, one oh five one, what are your thoughts? Hello?
- 40:15Speaker 1: Who's this? Okay? What are your thoughts? So I think
- 40:21Speaker 1: at first I was torn because I was thinking, you know,
- 40:23Speaker 1: they're just going back to, you know, play for the
- 40:26Speaker 1: white people's investence. But at the same time, I think
- 40:29Speaker 1: this would be a perfect opportunity for them to really
- 40:32Speaker 1: use their voice. Every game that starts, we hold a
- 40:34Speaker 1: moment of silence. Every last player is outfitted with a
- 40:37Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter teachert we make it so that they
- 40:40Speaker 1: can't avoid it, like they're expecting that, you know, all
- 40:43Speaker 1: of these players will go back and act like everything
- 40:46Speaker 1: is normal. No, it's not normal. We shouldn't be killed
- 40:49Speaker 1: at the hands of cops. It's one thing when you
- 40:51Speaker 1: have like one player like Kaepernick, you can't boycott or
- 40:55Speaker 1: you can't blacklist all of the NBA players, right, you know,
- 41:00Speaker 1: like if you can't, you can't force every player to
- 41:03Speaker 1: do to wear that though they have to feel even
- 41:06Speaker 1: like you Yeah, I understand that. But at the same time,
- 41:09Speaker 1: I'm willing to bet that most of the top line
- 41:12Speaker 1: or you know, top of the market players are going
- 41:15Speaker 1: to be willing to lend their voice to disco something
- 41:17Speaker 1: that affects us all, you know, and tie into that.
- 41:22Speaker 1: Oh I'm sorry. I kind of also wanted to tie
- 41:24Speaker 1: into that, like the idea of flooding timelines and just
- 41:28Speaker 1: making it so that they can't ignore it. Yesterday was
- 41:30Speaker 1: Obama Appreciation Day, and you know what, Trump stayed off
- 41:34Speaker 1: a Twitter. What if we were to make it so
- 41:37Speaker 1: that he can't avoid Black Lives Matter maga, hashtag, maga,
- 41:41Speaker 1: hashtag Trump. Let's take it over. Let's make it so
- 41:44Speaker 1: that like the K pop stars did it. Let's make
- 41:47Speaker 1: it so that every image, every time he opens up Twitter,
- 41:50Speaker 1: that's what he sees. Yeah, that's why I don't understand
- 41:52Speaker 1: why people act like the NBA would be a distraction,
- 41:54Speaker 1: Like the NBA would just heighten what's going on. Like
- 41:56Speaker 1: all the players could wear I can't breathe T shirts,
- 41:59Speaker 1: and I would be even different because you'd have white
- 42:01Speaker 1: players participating as well. Like athlete activism and protest through
- 42:06Speaker 1: sports is important. It's been happening since I've been alive,
- 42:10Speaker 1: likecking like this is new. Well, thank you, Mama, go
- 42:14Speaker 1: to one more call her. Hello, who's this? Hey? What's
- 42:16Speaker 1: going on? Hey? Good morning? Okay, all right, so we're
- 42:22Speaker 1: talking about the NBA playing. What are your thoughts. I
- 42:26Speaker 1: don't think any sports to turn out football and our
- 42:29Speaker 1: basketball and our baseball or hockey. Why this is not
- 42:34Speaker 1: the time to be worried about who's playing games, who's
- 42:38Speaker 1: winning trappy and feels right now, we're still not it's
- 42:41Speaker 1: still killing us right now. Okay, Well, thank you, thank
- 42:44Speaker 1: you for your opinion. Mama. I just I'm very confused
- 42:47Speaker 1: about this, Like why do we act like sports didn't
- 42:49Speaker 1: play a role in the civil rights movement? Like, seriously,
- 42:53Speaker 1: why are we acting like the Jackie Robinson to the
- 42:55Speaker 1: world didn't exist. Like I don't, I don't, I really
- 42:57Speaker 1: don't understand the logic. I really Muhammad Ali like that,
- 43:00Speaker 1: Muhammad Ali, John Carlos, Tommy Smith, like Kareem Abdul the
- 43:04Speaker 1: Bar most recently, Colin Kapernick. You know, You've always had
- 43:07Speaker 1: people who have used athlete activism and protests through sports,
- 43:12Speaker 1: Like I'm really confused about why people think this would
- 43:14Speaker 1: be a distraction. All right, Well, well, is there moral
- 43:17Speaker 1: to the story? I don't think it's a moral to
- 43:19Speaker 1: the story. Like I said, I respect both sides, and
- 43:21Speaker 1: I hear both sides. I hate what Stephen Jackson is saying,
- 43:23Speaker 1: I hear what the people that I want to play
- 43:25Speaker 1: is saying. But I just think that you know, if
- 43:26Speaker 1: they play, it heightens what's going on. It brings more
- 43:28Speaker 1: eyes to what's going on, and players will be out
- 43:31Speaker 1: there doing their demonstrations and you know, bringing more attention
- 43:34Speaker 1: to the cause. And once again, that's just their job.
- 43:36Speaker 1: If people are getting back to work and they want
- 43:39Speaker 1: to work, let them work, all right. I feel like
- 43:41Speaker 1: it's like kind of like saying, don't release movies, don't
- 43:44Speaker 1: release music, don't do anything. Like you can still do
- 43:47Speaker 1: things and still be active. Absolutely, we got rumors on
- 43:51Speaker 1: the way, yes, and we are going to talk about
- 43:53Speaker 1: a versus battle that's coming up on June teenth, but
- 43:56Speaker 1: tell you who's battling. Also, Nicki Minaj was on Young
- 43:59Speaker 1: Money Rady all right, we'll get into that when we
- 44:01Speaker 1: come back. Keep a lot This to Breakfast Club corn listen,
- 44:06Speaker 1: Oh got well, Little Wayne a Young Money radio guess
- 44:16Speaker 1: who we interviewed over the weekend. Nicki Minaj. Now, one
- 44:19Speaker 1: of the things she discussed was being married. Right now,
- 44:22Speaker 1: listen to this out of marriage good good god man.
- 44:29Speaker 1: I didn't think it would be as freshing and calming
- 44:33Speaker 1: as it is, but it kind of you know, even
- 44:36Speaker 1: if you're not married, just when you have somebody that's
- 44:38Speaker 1: that feels like your soul mat off, it's very understanding
- 44:41Speaker 1: or understands you. It just makes you feel like you
- 44:45Speaker 1: on top of the world. You know, you just need
- 44:47Speaker 1: that partner. So I'm good. It also turns out the
- 44:51Speaker 1: two of them really might be doing this joint album
- 44:53Speaker 1: and things might be in the works. They discuss what
- 44:56Speaker 1: it was like for him to sign her as a woman,
- 44:58Speaker 1: because that's not you know, people always have had reservations
- 45:02Speaker 1: about signing female artists, unfortunately, and then she discusses how
- 45:06Speaker 1: difficult it is to follow Wayne on a record because
- 45:10Speaker 1: he's legendary. The beauty of that is nicky call fire
- 45:13Speaker 1: her on her own, especially with that being me Up
- 45:15Speaker 1: Scotty mixtape. I'm sure once that took off, that's when
- 45:17Speaker 1: the label was like, oh Wayne, I think you might
- 45:19Speaker 1: have something here. It's open the budget. And now Eminem
- 45:22Speaker 1: has been talking to a lot of people on his
- 45:24Speaker 1: Young Money Radio. He's even had on Eminem, Jamie Fox,
- 45:26Speaker 1: Drake Killing Mike, a whole lot of other guests as well.
- 45:29Speaker 1: Looks like he's having found out. Yeah, Nora was on
- 45:32Speaker 1: there this weekend as well. Yeah, see Nori on it
- 45:35Speaker 1: all right. Spike Lee has apologize and that's because he
- 45:38Speaker 1: defended Woody Allen. He voiced support for Woody Allen and
- 45:42Speaker 1: he was criticizing Cancel Culture, and after that happened, he
- 45:47Speaker 1: has said he deeply apologizes. He tweeted out my words
- 45:50Speaker 1: were wrong. I do not and will not tolerate sexual harassment,
- 45:53Speaker 1: assault or violence. Such treatment causes real damage that can't
- 45:56Speaker 1: be minimized. And that's all because we do know that
- 46:00Speaker 1: Woody Allen has been accused of molesting his daughter, Dylan
- 46:02Speaker 1: Farre when she was seven years old. Now here is
- 46:06Speaker 1: what Spike Lee had to say in an interview on
- 46:09Speaker 1: in the Morning. Well, I'd just like to say, Woody
- 46:12Speaker 1: Allen's a great, great filmmaker and this cancel thing is
- 46:17Speaker 1: not just Woody, and I think that when you know,
- 46:20Speaker 1: we look back on it is when I see that
- 46:22Speaker 1: I don't know, if you're just sure of killing somebody,
- 46:25Speaker 1: I don't know, you just just erase somebody like they
- 46:28Speaker 1: never existed. So well, he's a friend of mine, a
- 46:31Speaker 1: fellow Nick fan, so I know he's going through it
- 46:35Speaker 1: right now. What was the line of questioning though, Like,
- 46:38Speaker 1: why did he start talking about Woody Allen? I think
- 46:40Speaker 1: he was just talking about the cancel culture and he
- 46:42Speaker 1: was saying that Woody Allen's a great filmmaker and that's
- 46:46Speaker 1: just his longtime friend. So he was just talking about
- 46:48Speaker 1: Woody Allen falling out of grace because of the Me
- 46:50Speaker 1: Too movement, and so you know, Woody Allen also has
- 46:54Speaker 1: recently put out his memoir and a lot of people
- 46:56Speaker 1: had issues with that as well. All right, Barbara Streisan,
- 47:00Speaker 1: here's some good news. She has helped out George Floyd's daughter, Gianna.
- 47:03Speaker 1: She's only six years old, and she gave her some shares,
- 47:06Speaker 1: so she's now a Disney shareholder now. Gianna posted a
- 47:10Speaker 1: picture with a post on her Instagram page and she said,
- 47:15Speaker 1: thank you Barbara streisand for my package, I am now
- 47:17Speaker 1: a Disney shareholder thanks to you. I love it, and
- 47:20Speaker 1: dropped on the food bounce for Barbara Streisand that's good.
- 47:23Speaker 1: I mean that young lady's gonna be set for life
- 47:25Speaker 1: if if if somebody teaches her how to you know,
- 47:28Speaker 1: be financially literate, what she can learn. She's a kid,
- 47:31Speaker 1: yeah right. She's already been offered a full right scholarship
- 47:34Speaker 1: to Tech Texas Southern University in Houston, and Kanye has
- 47:37Speaker 1: set up a college fund for her as well. There's
- 47:39Speaker 1: also a go fund Me page that's been set up
- 47:41Speaker 1: on behalf of her and they've raised over two million
- 47:43Speaker 1: dollars to date. So that's how you actually help out.
- 47:46Speaker 1: AKA the Aka said that any HBCU she wants to
- 47:50Speaker 1: go attend that they'll cover that as well, by the way.
- 47:54Speaker 1: That's that's that's that's how all American descendants of slaves
- 47:58Speaker 1: should be she should be treated. That's the kind of
- 48:01Speaker 1: reparations we're talking about. Yes, for everything that you know
- 48:05Speaker 1: black people have been through in this country, that is
- 48:07Speaker 1: the kind of reparations they should receive. Absolutely. And you
- 48:12Speaker 1: know what I love about giving her stock in Walt
- 48:14Speaker 1: Disney and Disney. That's something that you can relate to, right,
- 48:17Speaker 1: you know, things that you love, and they always say
- 48:19Speaker 1: buy stock and things that are important to you and
- 48:21Speaker 1: that you support and that you use on a daily basis.
- 48:24Speaker 1: And that's something that she can actually understand, Like, I'm
- 48:27Speaker 1: getting stock in Disney. I love Disney. Absolutely, that's a
- 48:31Speaker 1: great start to your investing. Yeah, just seven months ago
- 48:34Speaker 1: it's like at one forty one fifty and now it's
- 48:36Speaker 1: at like one twelve, so it is shoot up. So
- 48:37Speaker 1: that would be great. They said that if you would
- 48:40Speaker 1: have bought a thousand dollars ten years ago in Disney stock,
- 48:43Speaker 1: that would be worth more than as a February. You know,
- 48:46Speaker 1: it's down a little bit right now until they open
- 48:48Speaker 1: back up, but it would have been worth forty six
- 48:50Speaker 1: hundred dollars for a thousand dollars a stock. I'm ten
- 48:53Speaker 1: years ago, so that's a great investment. All right, I'm
- 48:56Speaker 1: Mandela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right,

- 49:45Speaker 1: From Monday, June fifteenth, goes to Lebanese vocalists Tatanias Sale
- 49:49Speaker 1: and Algerian artists who Heala ben lakap Apologies if I
- 49:53Speaker 1: messed up either one of your names. Pronunciation has never
- 49:55Speaker 1: been my strong suit. Now, I really do appreciate seeing
- 49:58Speaker 1: people all over the world black lives matter. I have
- 50:01Speaker 1: said numerous times over the past few weeks that ain't
- 50:04Speaker 1: no good gonna come to America or the world until
- 50:08Speaker 1: they do right by black people. Okay. When America tones
- 50:11Speaker 1: fits original sin, which is slavery, through legislation, reparations, and
- 50:16Speaker 1: change behavior behavior, then you will see this wicked system
- 50:19Speaker 1: come to an end and a new world will be
- 50:20Speaker 1: upon us. It will be a lot of devils who
- 50:22Speaker 1: refused to accept the programming, and that's fine, Okay. When
- 50:25Speaker 1: God told no where to tell folks to get their
- 50:27Speaker 1: minds right, get their souls right, and get on this
- 50:29Speaker 1: arc because the flood was coming, most of them didn't
- 50:32Speaker 1: listen either, and they got pressure washed. So all you
- 50:35Speaker 1: devils who don't want to do right by black people
- 50:36Speaker 1: and think whatever I'm saying is trash, let them drown. Okay.
- 50:40Speaker 1: So I'm saying all that to say all you folks
- 50:42Speaker 1: all around the world showing love the black lives matter,
- 50:45Speaker 1: thank you. But we live in an era of too far,
- 50:49Speaker 1: all right. Everybody goes too far with whatever they are doing,
- 50:53Speaker 1: and sadly, you don't know you have gone too far
- 50:56Speaker 1: until you have went too far, and by then it's
- 50:59Speaker 1: too late. You are already experiencing online outrage and backlash,
- 51:03Speaker 1: in this case blacklash, because you see these two Instagram
- 51:06Speaker 1: influences from the Middle East and Eastern Europe respectively, decided
- 51:10Speaker 1: to show their love and I put love in quotation
- 51:13Speaker 1: marks and support and I put support in quotation marks.
- 51:16Speaker 1: But black people by putting on black face, Yeah, that
- 51:19Speaker 1: black face. Tania had a photoshopped Angela Davis afro wig
- 51:24Speaker 1: and black skin paint, and she put the caption which
- 51:28Speaker 1: I was black today more than ever, sending my love
- 51:31Speaker 1: and full support to the people who demand equality and
- 51:34Speaker 1: justice for all races anywhere in the world. Sohila painted
- 51:38Speaker 1: half her body brown with the caption just because we're
- 51:42Speaker 1: black on the outside doesn't mean we're black on the inside. Huh.
- 51:46Speaker 1: At first, I didn't know what the hell that line meant.
- 51:48Speaker 1: It made absolutely no sense to me because I'm all
- 51:51Speaker 1: black everything, through and through and what the hell is
- 51:53Speaker 1: wrong with being black on the inside. Then she explained,
- 51:57Speaker 1: she says racist people are a true black hearted ones.
- 52:00Speaker 1: They are black on the inside and they know it.
- 52:02Speaker 1: I know what she means, but fart on that statement.
- 52:05Speaker 1: Come on, Eddie, give me a little ask ask for that. Right.
- 52:09Speaker 1: You can't celebrate black people if you don't know black history,
- 52:12Speaker 1: if you don't know what offends black people. Okay, wearing
- 52:15Speaker 1: black face at the time like this, it's like starting
- 52:18Speaker 1: a hashtag I am good campaign. Oh I'm sorry, Toronto.
- 52:22Speaker 1: Can't say the N word in Toronto. So just imagine
- 52:24Speaker 1: if a bunch of white people got online and to
- 52:26Speaker 1: show their support, they did a hashtag I am N
- 52:29Speaker 1: word campaign? Can you imagine that? What if the show
- 52:32Speaker 1: support for black people, somebody decided to sponsor free Popeyes
- 52:36Speaker 1: free KFC for protesters at all Black Lives Matter rallies.
- 52:39Speaker 1: Now I would enjoy it because I enjoy Popeyes in KFC,
- 52:42Speaker 1: but the optics of it would be disrespectful as hell. Okay,
- 52:45Speaker 1: white people moon walk away from the bronzer, all right.
- 52:49Speaker 1: If you see the black and brown paint to the right,
- 52:51Speaker 1: then you go to the left, to the left. Okay,
- 52:53Speaker 1: what trips me out about this is what's wrong with
- 52:55Speaker 1: your Google? Did you consult with anyone before you made
- 52:59Speaker 1: this movie? Do you not see what happens to white
- 53:02Speaker 1: folks every Halloween here in America, White folks who decide
- 53:06Speaker 1: that they want to trick or treat as their favorite
- 53:08Speaker 1: black rapper. Did you not see what happened to Jimmy
- 53:11Speaker 1: Fallon a couple of weeks ago when he was pretending
- 53:13Speaker 1: to be Chris Rock back in the day. Okay, See,
- 53:16Speaker 1: black face is not just dark makeup used to enhance
- 53:19Speaker 1: a costume. Okay, Its origins are rooted in menstrel shows. Okay.
- 53:23Speaker 1: Back in the nineteenth century, white actors would put black
- 53:26Speaker 1: grease paint on their faces when depicting plantation slaves and
- 53:30Speaker 1: free blacks on stage. So it's not a compliment at
- 53:33Speaker 1: all to wear black face. This is exactly why I
- 53:36Speaker 1: don't like to see white folks kneeling at a time
- 53:39Speaker 1: like this, because I don't know if they are finally
- 53:40Speaker 1: understanding why people are taking a knee, are if they
- 53:44Speaker 1: are making a mockery of George Floyd's death. You never
- 53:48Speaker 1: know with white folks. Okay, even with these ig influences,
- 53:52Speaker 1: do I think they were trying to offend. No, but
- 53:55Speaker 1: it's a part of me that's not sure. I'm just
- 53:57Speaker 1: not sure because I refuse to believe that in twenty twenty,
- 54:00Speaker 1: anywhere in the world, somebody doesn't understand white black face
- 54:05Speaker 1: is wrong. Please give to Nia Sali and Shoheila been
- 54:08Speaker 1: like Cobb to sweeps out of the hand with tones place.
- 54:11Speaker 1: Oh now you are dogee, Oh the da gee, oh
- 54:22Speaker 1: the day. Ye you think they were trying to nothing?
- 54:30Speaker 1: I would hope not. Yeah, I would hope. I would
- 54:32Speaker 1: hope how many times we gotta say don't do it
- 54:35Speaker 1: for people to really ask what I'm saying. Everybody has
- 54:38Speaker 1: the Internet, everybody sees what's going on out here. You're
- 54:40Speaker 1: not gonna sit here and tell me that you've never
- 54:42Speaker 1: seen a white person get landed online, receive black lash
- 54:46Speaker 1: for wearing black face, like come on stop, And then
- 54:49Speaker 1: when being told to take it down and say, I'm
- 54:51Speaker 1: not taking it down. It's crazy, as if you're making
- 54:55Speaker 1: some righteous stand the same black people that are telling
- 54:57Speaker 1: you to take it down because it's a you're using
- 55:01Speaker 1: your privilege to say, hell no, I know it's best
- 55:05Speaker 1: for y'all. Even if you had her intentions and then
- 55:08Speaker 1: they tell you take it down. This is offensive to
- 55:11Speaker 1: the movement and you can't say these things and this
- 55:13Speaker 1: is awful. And then you're still like, no, I'm going
- 55:15Speaker 1: to keep it up. No, you should listen to the
- 55:18Speaker 1: people that you supposedly support. Right, all right, well, thank
- 55:22Speaker 1: you for that donkey of today. Now, when we come back,
- 55:25Speaker 1: Solo Dad O'Brien will be joining us. I love watching
- 55:28Speaker 1: her on Twitter and social media talk about everything that's
- 55:31Speaker 1: going on. You might have seen her on CNN and
- 55:33Speaker 1: she has a new podcast right ye yes, it's called
- 55:36Speaker 1: Murder on the Towpath. She's talking about the murder of
- 55:39Speaker 1: Mary penshall Meyer. All right, so we'll kicking with Solo
- 55:42Speaker 1: Dad O'Brien when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club.
- 55:45Speaker 1: Good morning, The Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy
- 55:52Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We all the Breakfast Club.
- 55:55Speaker 1: We got a special guests on the Zoom Solo Dad O'Brian.
- 56:00Speaker 1: We talk about Russe Limbaugh of course, not right there.
- 56:03Speaker 1: All right, that's good. The good morning is assumed. Always
- 56:07Speaker 1: nice to see you guys, But so why would you
- 56:10Speaker 1: want to hear from Russia? Limbaugh of all the people.
- 56:12Speaker 1: And by the way, not everybody can say this, but
- 56:15Speaker 1: Breakfast Club can literally dial up anybody and they'll come
- 56:18Speaker 1: on and you're like, you know what, I think Rush
- 56:20Speaker 1: Limbaugh is the guy? Why? Well, No, what happened was
- 56:25Speaker 1: we worked for We all worked for iHeart Media, right,
- 56:28Speaker 1: and so being that we were all worked for I
- 56:30Speaker 1: Heeart Media that was a corporate called corporate, convinced us
- 56:34Speaker 1: that that would be a good idea because Rush had
- 56:37Speaker 1: this whole thing about George Floyd was wrong and police
- 56:41Speaker 1: need to be held accountable, and he wants this to change.
- 56:44Speaker 1: He wants George Floyd to be the last one. And
- 56:46Speaker 1: it was like it would be like a building of
- 56:48Speaker 1: bridges come in, two different worlds coming together. But you know,
- 56:52Speaker 1: the problem with somebody like Russ is he doesn't want
- 56:55Speaker 1: to deal with the reality of white privilege and the
- 56:57Speaker 1: reality of system and racism and white supremacy. So they're
- 57:00Speaker 1: or you can't ever get to what the real issue is.
- 57:03Speaker 1: His entire show is built on that. His whole entire
- 57:06Speaker 1: show is dismissing, denying and ignoring and lying about and
- 57:10Speaker 1: being crazy about all those things. So yeah, yeah, it
- 57:14Speaker 1: wasn't us pitching like, we would love to get Rush
- 57:16Speaker 1: on the show. But the idea was because we are
- 57:20Speaker 1: we are alway insisted about what happened with George Floyd
- 57:23Speaker 1: and wanting to make sure that those police officers do
- 57:27Speaker 1: end up getting charged, right, And so the idea was,
- 57:31Speaker 1: let's we all believe that this should happen. So it
- 57:34Speaker 1: was supposed to be just about that one thing that
- 57:37Speaker 1: we do agree on, that those police officers need to
- 57:39Speaker 1: be charged. That's what it was the idea. And he
- 57:42Speaker 1: wanted to have us on because he doesn't engage with
- 57:46Speaker 1: people like black people. Yeah, it was on his platform.
- 57:49Speaker 1: Since you asked us about Rush though, just real quick,
- 57:52Speaker 1: have you ever have you ever interviewed somebody that you
- 57:54Speaker 1: really just did not like, did not want to interview,
- 57:58Speaker 1: but did it for the sake of this is my job. Yeah,
- 58:02Speaker 1: And you know that's an interesting challenge, right, because you're
- 58:04Speaker 1: always trying to figure out, how do you have the
- 58:06Speaker 1: conversation without giving someone who's got despicable views and who
- 58:11Speaker 1: really dislikes you and really doesn't want to be in
- 58:13Speaker 1: an honest conversation. How do you do that without giving
- 58:16Speaker 1: them your big platform? Right? Like, how do you interview,
- 58:20Speaker 1: you know, the Grand Wizard of the KKK, David Duke,
- 58:23Speaker 1: and expect to have like an actual conversation which could
- 58:26Speaker 1: be interesting about like why would this guy want to
- 58:30Speaker 1: be the Grand Wizard of the KKK he was historically?
- 58:32Speaker 1: And yet I always find or frequently find that they
- 58:35Speaker 1: kind of co op the conversation and they jump onto
- 58:38Speaker 1: the platform and then it just derails, right, and it
- 58:40Speaker 1: doesn't You're not really having a heart to heart about
- 58:43Speaker 1: I feel this and you feel that, and let's discuss it.
- 58:46Speaker 1: They're just taking the mic and using it as an
- 58:49Speaker 1: opportunity to dispute stuff, and you feel like, well, shoot,
- 58:51Speaker 1: why did I just give this person a platform? I
- 58:53Speaker 1: don't know. Otherwise you end up just talking to yourselves, right,
- 58:56Speaker 1: and you can't do that. Back in the day, That's
- 58:58Speaker 1: how it was, right, Like you would watch Oprah, you
- 59:00Speaker 1: would watch Donnie Hue and it would be all of
- 59:02Speaker 1: these different worldviews, Like they would interview grand wizards at
- 59:05Speaker 1: a KKK are they would interview people that were on
- 59:07Speaker 1: the total opposite side of them. I wonder why we
- 59:10Speaker 1: don't do that more often now. I think it's because
- 59:13Speaker 1: social media. Now people recognize that they can get the platform,
- 59:18Speaker 1: they can take a chunk of the conversation. There's no
- 59:20Speaker 1: upside to having a conversation, a thoughtful conversation by do
- 59:24Speaker 1: nothing in terms of, you know, plailing your own message
- 59:28Speaker 1: for your own people. So they need to have a moment.
- 59:31Speaker 1: That moment gets edited down and it gets cut and
- 59:34Speaker 1: then they put it on their own platform for their
- 59:37Speaker 1: own purposes. Right, the idea of a thoughtful conversation, what's
- 59:41Speaker 1: the upside of that? Right now? I wanted to ask
- 59:44Speaker 1: you something else too. With everything that's been going on,
- 59:46Speaker 1: you see that they're canceling Cops after over thirty seasons
- 59:51Speaker 1: and LIVEPD is on hiatus, and I see some people
- 59:54Speaker 1: are on social media upset about that. What do you
- 59:57Speaker 1: think about those decisions by the networks? Interesting to me
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: that people for thirty years have been saying The Cops
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: is racist, right, I mean it sends a message about
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: how people in their lowest moment, who are often being
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: chased for nest or pot or whatever and don't really
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: have the wherewithal to have their lawyers, etcetera around them
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: advising them. I always thought that show was racist. I
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: have no problem Cops being off the air. I hate
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: that show now with George Floyd, what do you tell
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: your kids when when they go out and about you
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: have four children. They're going to the march this afternoon
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: in Washington Square Park, and I was really nervous and
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: I said, don't go for coronavirus reasons and for other reasons.
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: And then my husband's like, they got to go. They're
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: New York City kids, and they're young, and this is
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: the generation that actually is demanding change. My generation was like,
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: you know, listen as long as we've created a panel
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: to discuss it. And I feel like the CEO really
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: is feeling it, and I'm good kids nixt generations like
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: through that we want change, and I think that's amazing.
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: So I'm reluctantly because I'm a little nervous for them
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: letting them go, but I think that they get it.
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: And social media, again, as bad as it sometimes, this
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: has really been good for them. They see these stories.
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: It's very interesting to watch you on Twitter criticized and Trump,
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: slander and Trump, because it seems like every day he
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: finds a new way to disgust you. It's very interesting
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: to watch you get more and more pissed off at
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: Trump every day. I'm more and more pissed off of
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: the media. Though, right, you know, if Trump tomorrow were
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: to stay listen, I think black lives do matter. There
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: would be front page articles about the change in the
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: heart of and he read it off a teleprompter because
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: I'm not sure he could even manage it off the
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: top of his head. There would be articles and essays
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: and op eds written about the president who has finally
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: seen his way and now he really is here. And
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: You're just like, come on, media, it does discuss me.
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: But I'm more disgusted by the media. There's a guy
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: I like a lot as a reporter, Jonathan Carl wrote
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: a book called Front Row at the Trump Show. And
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: I'm like, but you're the White House correspondent. You're calling
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: your job the Trump Show. How how dismissive can you
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: be of your own Wow job, that's an important job,
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: that's an essential job, not just for you but for
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: American and you call it front Row at the Trump Show.
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: It's actually a good book, but it's like, I just
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: can't wrap my head around you have the most coveted
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: job as a White House correspondence, and you can't stand
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: up and stand up for the job. It's just it
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: breaks my heart and it does disgust me. But I said,
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: he is the president, so you got to cover the president.
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: It's a little bit the same thing we were talking about, right,
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: which is, Okay, you got to cover the president, but
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: you don't have to hand him a mic and you
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: don't have to do analysis that says, let's cheer for him.
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: He said, a good thing off a teleprompter. You don't
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: have to cover everybody live, you don't. You know, there
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: are decisions we make all the time. We decide which
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: person we're going to put on TV. We decide for
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: how long we decide the questions we're gonna ask them,
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: how we're going to frame them. Do we give them
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: an hour, do we give them two minutes? Do they
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: just get a sentence? So we make those decisions constantly.
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: One hundred percent is the president of the United States.
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: We absolutely need to educate people on what he's doing
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: and what he's saying. It does not need to be live,
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: especially if your goal is we're not going to air lies.
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: He lies constantly, So if you lie all the time,
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: And by the way, guests that I've had in the
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: past who were dishonest with me. Eventually I stop letting
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: them be guests on my show. You're not doing your
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: job as a reporter. So yes, we have to rethink
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: how you cover the president. It's a different time, but
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: it's not brain surgery. It's just rethinking it. All right,
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: we got more and solo, Dad O'Brien, when we come back,
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: don't move as to Breakfast Club. Good morning, this morning,
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: everybody is DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne, the guy we
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club was still kicking in with Solar,
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: Dad O'Brien, Are you surprised as an adult, I've seen
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: you say something, and I'm from Queens, I'm familiar with
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: the Long Island and you saying that people didn't want
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: to sell your parents a house because they didn't want
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: black people to move in. And that was when you
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: was a child. Now, to see what's going on in
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: Long Island, it seems like things definitely hasn't changed. Are
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: you still surprised to see that now this day and
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: age in Long Island and what I was growing up
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: on Long Island, people used to protest so families used
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: to protest black families moving in. When I was in
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: middle school, in high school, those people grew up and
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: they still live in Long Island. It's not like they
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: all left. You know, nothing surprises me, and it didn't
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: come from nowhere. There's a long history in Long Island
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: of people deciding they didn't want black people to move
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: in a lot of Long Islanders. You know when I
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: lived there and growing up, would say they left the
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: city intentionally because they didn't want to be around those people.
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: But there was intention there. It wasn't a you know,
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: we want a diverse neighborhoo just with a yard. So no,
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: it doesn't surprise me at all. And you know, I
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: think that Long Island, I mean, you look at the
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: law had such an incredibly deep and racist history. It's
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: interesting though. You know, people point to Levittown, like the
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: first development in Long Island, and they don't understand that,
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: you know, people very intentionally didn't allow black people to
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: buy into Levittown. So when you look at the success
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: of Levittown, three bedroom sort of in a development's a
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: classic Long Island development, and you keep people out and
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: those property values increased. All the people there really struggle
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: with Many of the people there struggle was talking about
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: white privilege because they don't understand what it's like that
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: they got to live in a community where they could
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: build wealth. But they become very blind when you say, right,
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: but if black people can't buy into that right, if
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: their property values are less or almost non existent, or
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: going the opposite direction, do you understand how you had
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: privilege when other people did not, just based on the
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: color of your skin. Because I think that white privileged
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: conversation there is a complex one. People will often say
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: to me, I don't feel privileged. You know, you have
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: more money to me or you you know, and it's
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: it's really hard for people to understand what they had
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: access to just because white people were allowed to do
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: this and black people were not allowed. And what they
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: avoid they avoid the discrimination that comes with presenting as
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: a black person, you know, you know, the driving while black,
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: being profiled in stores that doesn't happen. Yeah, And I
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: think because where I grew up in Fifthtown, where the
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: latest videos of the guys talking about the the N
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: words lover, I was like, oh, yeah, that's actually looks
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: to the building literally, Um yeah. I think what happens
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: is there's no critical math, right, so there's never conversations
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: about rape because there's one black family two black families,
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: you'd never have those issues around policing. And I think
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: this is why there's this big disconnect because in white communities, yeah,
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: police are there to help you, and they're not gonna
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: arrest your kid who's smoking pot. I know because when
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: I was a kid, I was pulled over in a
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: car with a bunch of my friends and people were
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: spoken pot in the car and the police were like,
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: come on, guys, don't be idiot. But I tell you,
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: if that were a carful of black teens, they would
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: all have literally been hauled off because we've seen that
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: a million times. So I think, you know, they just
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: don't often understand the issues around policing because they don't
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: live it. Right now, I know earlier we talked about
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: the Trump Show, I do want to talk about the
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: Solidads show for a second because I'm hearing that you
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: have a show that you've been pitching and Lee Daniels
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: might perhaps be doing a show about you. So what's
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: going on with that. I love Lee Daniels and I
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: hopefully Daniels does my show, but I'm not sure Lee
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: Daniels is going to do my show. But I do
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: have a scripted idea about anchor women, and really it's
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: about how black people in corporate America feel stuck sometimes.
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: And because I was an anchor woman in corporate America,
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: I might have some advits. Would imagine if you could
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: clear people out of your maybe it's through nefarious means
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: to get to the top. What would that look like?
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: That's what the scripted show we're pitching is about. And
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: then we're in the middle of a podcast right now
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: that looks at the murder of a white woman in
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: Georgetown in nineteen sixty four. Did you know Georgetown used
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: to be a majority black community in the nineteen sixties.
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: Now I didn't either, did not know that. So it's
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: a story of a woman who in the nineteen sixties,
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: a woman who's actually having an affair with Jfka who
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: was married and divorced to it, a CIA guy in
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: the CIA. She gets killed in her path, Mary Meyer,
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: Mary Pincho Meyer gets killed on the tow path and
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: they within forty five minutes arrest a black guy for
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: her murder. He is represented by by a black civil
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: rights lawyer, w Rowntree, who then has to figure out
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: how to how to argue his case. Against a prosecution
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: team that is it's such a great story because they're
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: they're very brilliant, but they're also very arrogant, and you
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: know it's the arrogance that will take them down. At
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: one point, I'll give you a great little hint. W's
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: trying to decide does she put her guy, the suspect,
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: on the stand or not, and the woman who is
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: the elevator operator fills her in on the prosecution strategy
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: because you know, the prosecution team gets in the elevator
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: and they don't think this black woman who's running the elevator,
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: they don't even think she's smart enough to understand what
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: they're talking about. So they go through their entire case,
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: which she turns down and tells the defense attorney, who
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: then is able to make a brilliant decision. But also
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: Mary Pincho Meyers doing drugs in the White House with
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: the President jamk and having an affair with him. So
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: it's the craziest. It's the craziest podcast with so many
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: twists and turns. Yeah, I had a lot of conspiracy theories.
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: They said the CIA might have had it killed, and
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: well it's so interesting, Yeah, because the conspiracy theories there's
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: a million. But what's not a conspiracy theory is that
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: the CIA came and right after her death Mary's death
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: took her diary. It's never been seen since, Like that's
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: just a fact. So it's just weird, like why that,
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: what did she have in her diary? And was that
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: in fact a reason to kill her? Now there are
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: many people who say, listen, these conspiracy theories are insane.
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: We kind of run through them and talk about how
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: some of them are completely crazy and why. But also
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: the facts are so odd too. So it's a great
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: story about women, about civil rights and kind of how
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: Debbie Rowntree got to be in the position to represent
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: this young black man who's nabbed for the murder. And
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: then also all the conspiracy theories around why Mary Pincha
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: Meyer was killed in the first place. They might as
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: well release that diary now, well, nowadays that diary would
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: have been turned into a pen part theory for Netflix.
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: Absolutely absolutely, and then they'd be pinching it exactly. Do
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: you think do you think this story is better told
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: as a podcast rather than visual? I do, because I
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: actually I think The Big a great movie, and I've
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: had some actors reached out to me already about doing
- 1:11:08Speaker 1: it as a film. Um, I couldn't do it as
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: a documentary. There's just not enough supporting video and pictures.
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: But what I like about the podcast is that every
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: hour you can follow a thread kind of down the
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: rabbit hole, and and that's pretty interesting. Solidad, We appreciate
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: you for checking in and thank you so much. And
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: be safe out there and make sure them kids remain safe.
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: Thank you, guys, I appreciate I never let post write
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: me out. I am more stressed by the American people

- 1:14:00Speaker 1: announced dates for their virtual two weekend festival. As you know,
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: essence Fest is not going to happen in person, and
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: so now they're going to have two back to back
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: weekends Thursdays do Sundays. That's June twenty fifth to twenty
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: eighth and July second to the fifth, So that is
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: going to be virtually done. Lonnie Love is still hosting,
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: and they're going to have a wellness House on Thursdays
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: June twenty fifth and July second, and that's going to
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: be for meditation, conversations, working out tutorials to boost your mental, physical, spiritual, emotional,
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: and financial well being. They'll have Essence after dark that's

- 1:14:35Speaker 1: the Kickback, and then they'll have some evening concerts as well,
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: but music by d Nights hosted by Lonnie Love. And
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: then Sundays they'll have the Get Lifted Gospel Sunday Celebration.
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: They shout, too, am I wrong? We're hoping some of
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: this stuff isn't successful. And the only reason I say
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: that is because I don't want anybody to get used
- 1:14:52Speaker 1: to these virtual gatherings. Like the Essence Fest should be live.
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: BT Awards should be live. Like a lot of this stuff,
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: I want to be there four I want to experience
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: in the flesh some of this stuff. I'm rooting for
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: the virtual aspect of it not to be as successful
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: as the live events people are just trying to make
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: right now. And it's the same thing like look with
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: BT Awards, people are always gonna go to it, and
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: it's also gonna air, so it's the same day kind
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: of a stuff airing. But we know how these corporations work.
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: We see it all the time. If it has ratings
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: that are through the roof and they can make the
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: same money and get get the same ratings in revenue.
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: They're gonna trim a lot of fact and they'll try
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: to do this even when things get back to normal.
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: We notice no people need to be out. People need
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: to get out about I was saying, shout to d Nice.

- 1:16:27Speaker 1: let's move on. Nickelodeon has announced that SpongeBob is a
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: member of the LGBTQ plus community. So so it looks
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: like that's what people were thinking, right, because they posted
- 1:16:37Speaker 1: celebrating Pride with the LGBTQ plus community and their allies
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: this month and every month, and then they posted SpongeBob,
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: and then pretty soon Spongeby gay is trending. But I
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: don't know if that's necessarily true, because, as you know,
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: the creator of SpongeBob says that he's a sexual. He said,
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: it doesn't have anything to do with what we're trying
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: to do. We've never intended them to be gay. I
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: considered them to be almost a sexual Spongeby I've been
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: his best friend, Patrick Starfish. He's a goddamn SpongeBob to
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: be anything? What this? Why does he have to be
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: sexual at all? He's a goddamn square SpongeBob square pants.
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: Why do I care what his sexuality is? What does
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: that do for his character? What does that do for
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: the kids watching him? For me watching him? Who cares
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: what SpongeBob is? Seriously, am I tripping? I don't know
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: what everybody. Everybody's y'all woke. People need to go get
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: some sleep because y'all so goddamn tired. You don't think
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: well when you're tired, Like, who cares what bob sexuality is?
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: All right, And here's something you might care about. Alicia
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: Keys and John Legend. They are doing a versus battle
