Speaker 1: highly favored. Happy to be here. Another day to serve
0:28
Speaker 1: our beautiful listeners.
0:29
Speaker 2: Good morning.
0:30
Speaker 5: Good morning. How you feeling?
0:31
Speaker 2: Long night, man.
0:32
Speaker 5: Amazing night, though.
0:33
Speaker 2: November 4th, day after Election Day.
0:37
Speaker 3: Man, what a night.
0:39
Speaker 2: I've never seen anything like that in my lifetime.
0:42
Speaker 6: Yes.
0:42
Speaker 1: They call it a blue wave. I see people calling
0:44
Speaker 1: it a blue NAMI. I don't know what it was,
0:47
Speaker 1: but I do know one thing for sure.
0:49
Speaker 3: What's that?
0:49
Speaker 1: That was a referendum on Donald Trump in 10 years
0:52
Speaker 1: of MAGA politics.
0:53
Speaker 3: Yeah.
0:54
Speaker 2: 10 years of MAGA politics that people can look and
0:58
Speaker 2: see and say that did not work.
1:00
Speaker 3: That's right.
1:00
Speaker 5: Wrecking numbers at the polls.
1:01
Speaker 3: It was.
1:03
Speaker 5: I was falling asleep in and out. Of course, we
1:07
Speaker 5: were with Angela Rye and we were doing a lot
1:09
Speaker 5: of the results live. But just watching just the history
1:13
Speaker 5: being made last night.
1:14
Speaker 2: It was a rejection of political promises that have been broken,
1:20
Speaker 2: that haven't translated into people having a.
1:22
Speaker 1: More affordable, secure life. I tell you all the time, man,
1:24
Speaker 1: people only want two things on this planet. They want
1:26
Speaker 1: to feel safe. And they want to have more money
1:28
Speaker 1: in their pocket.
1:29
Speaker 3: That's right.
1:29
Speaker 1: That has not happened, you know, under MAGA for the
1:31
Speaker 1: everyday working class person.
1:33
Speaker 2: Not at all.
1:33
Speaker 1: And another thing to really talk about is the potential shift.
1:39
Speaker 2: And Democratic messaging. It's a messaging that I've seen shift
1:41
Speaker 2: a lot. You know what I mean?
1:42
Speaker 1: Because they're just talking about everyday economic concerns rather than
1:46
Speaker 1: getting caught up in a bunch of cultural battles.
1:48
Speaker 2: Correct. You know, ain't no talk of wokeness. Ain't no
1:51
Speaker 2: talk of identity politics. They're out there talking about affordability.
1:54
Speaker 1: And you got some really great quality candidates. uh, on
1:59
Speaker 1: the democratic side. And man, last night people voted their interest.
2:02
Speaker 1: It wasn't about party. It wasn't about, you know, that, that,
2:05
Speaker 1: that MAGA code. It was about, you know what? I
2:08
Speaker 1: got to go out here and vote my interest. I'm
2:09
Speaker 1: getting my ass kicked financially.
2:10
Speaker 5: Absolutely.
2:10
Speaker 7: Okay.
2:11
Speaker 2: Who, who out here can make it, make it better.
2:13
Speaker 7: Yeah.
2:13
Speaker 5: To make the, make the bleeding stop.
2:15
Speaker 1: Cause you can win an election, you know, promising people
2:17
Speaker 1: a better, better life, but eventually people are going to
2:20
Speaker 1: judge you by the life they're actually living.
2:22
Speaker 3: That's right.
2:22
Speaker 1: And people are not living a good life right now.
2:25
Speaker 1: And you got some really good quality candidates on the
2:27
Speaker 1: democratic side.
2:28
Speaker 2: Uh, Who, man, ran great campaigns.
2:30
Speaker 3: That's right.
2:31
Speaker 2: People bought into it all over the country.
2:32
Speaker 3: That's right.
2:33
Speaker 2: All over the country.
2:34
Speaker 5: Mimi's going to break that down next in front page news.
2:36
Speaker 5: There's a lot to talk about. The only problem with
2:38
Speaker 5: Mimi is last night at the event. When Lauren left,
2:41
Speaker 5: Lauren took Mimi's computer, and Mimi took Lauren's computer. So
2:45
Speaker 5: some of the programs and stuff and the audios and
2:47
Speaker 5: the sounds, well, hopefully.
2:49
Speaker 2: Do computers look that much alike? How does that happen?
2:51
Speaker 5: I'm sure they're just both silver Macs.
2:54
Speaker 8: Dang.
2:54
Speaker 2: They day around each other too much now. They synchronize
2:56
Speaker 2: in periods at this point. They do stuff like that,
2:58
Speaker 2: stealing each other's computers.
2:59
Speaker 5: So we'll break that down in front page news. Also,
3:02
Speaker 5: joining us on the show. Take me to your leader.
3:05
Speaker 2: Did I sound like an alien? My guy, Neil deGrasse Tyson, baby.
3:08
Speaker 5: Did I sound like an alien?
3:09
Speaker 9: You did sound very alienistic.
3:11
Speaker 5: Yeah, Neil deGrasse Tyson will be joining us. He has
3:14
Speaker 5: a new book, Take Me to Your Leader. We're going
3:16
Speaker 5: to talk to him about everything that he talks about,
3:18
Speaker 5: the extra... terrestrial universe.
3:20
Speaker 2: The interesting part is, man, now we got some leaders
3:22
Speaker 2: that I feel comfortable taking people to, at least after January.
3:25
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
3:27
Speaker 1: You asked me this question last week. I wouldn't know
3:29
Speaker 1: who it took the extraterrestrials to if they visited.
3:31
Speaker 2: Now I'm like, you know what? I got some people
3:32
Speaker 2: that we can go talk to. We can go talk
3:34
Speaker 2: to Shapiro in Pennsylvania. We can go talk to Westmore
3:36
Speaker 2: in Maryland.
3:37
Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
3:38
Speaker 2: We can go talk to people. We got some people
3:40
Speaker 2: that we can go talk to.
3:40
Speaker 1: We can go talk to Keisha Lance Bottoms in Georgia.
3:44
Speaker 2: Bottoms for Canada.
3:45
Speaker 3: Period.
3:45
Speaker 2: Period.
3:47
Speaker 10: What?
3:47
Speaker 5: The Bottoms for Atlanta.
3:48
Speaker 2: That might have won her the campaign. Did she remember
3:50
Speaker 2: that slogan?
3:51
Speaker 8: I don't know.
3:51
Speaker 2: I see Magic City posted.
3:52
Speaker 3: I don't know.
3:52
Speaker 9: Your son may have won her the campaign.
3:54
Speaker 5: I see Magic City for the Bottoms for Atlanta.
3:57
Speaker 3: Damn.
3:57
Speaker 9: No more than Atlanta.
3:58

4:17
Speaker 2: Even though Democrats still have to govern. What is it?
4:19
Speaker 12: Oh, let's play Sounds of Blackness.

Speaker 9: I asked that yesterday.
4:22
Speaker 10: Oh, shoot.

4:24
Speaker 1: You know, I'm always down to hear that, regardless of
4:26
Speaker 1: who in the White House. Keep your head to the sky.
4:28
Speaker 1: That might not even be in there, though.
4:29
Speaker 5: Nah, it's in there.
4:30
Speaker 3: We played it so much.
4:30
Speaker 9: Yeah, we played it before.

4:45
Speaker 5: Throwing it right to you, Mimi. A lot went on
4:47
Speaker 5: last night.
4:47
Speaker 13: A lot went on last night. I heard you guys
4:49
Speaker 13: in here talking about a blue wave, blue tsunami. It
4:52
Speaker 13: was definitely that. So we're going to start this morning.
4:55
Speaker 13: Front page news is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan, America's
4:58
Speaker 13: largest injury law firm. We're going to start this morning
5:00
Speaker 13: with Democrats. They are celebrating a major victory. victory after
5:04
Speaker 13: a stunning blow to republicans in the midterm elections these
5:07
Speaker 13: weren't just the states where democrats typically do well that
5:10
Speaker 13: they won right so they flipped republican held senate seats
5:13
Speaker 13: in iowa kansas ohio north carolina south carolina and texas
5:19
Speaker 13: texas you guys.
5:20
Speaker 2: Never seen anything like this texas.
5:22
Speaker 14: Right i mean kansas.
5:23
Speaker 2: South carolina south carolina.
5:26
Speaker 13: South carolina yes We talked about yesterday how Kansas hadn't
5:30
Speaker 13: elected a Democratic senator since in 1990, 1930 something. That
5:36
Speaker 13: had been 94 years.
5:37
Speaker 9: 94 years.
5:39
Speaker 13: Now, several of those states, they voted for President Trump
5:41
Speaker 13: in all three of the presidential elections, some by double digits. Now,
5:45
Speaker 13: along with these wins, though, comes a historic first in Washington,
5:49
Speaker 13: which positions Hakeem Jeffries to become the first black speaker
5:52
Speaker 13: of the house.
5:53
Speaker 12: And last night.
5:54
Speaker 2: Okay. Now let's not bring it.
5:55
Speaker 9: Hey, let's not bring the mood.
5:59
Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
6:00
Speaker 13: So we don't listen to, to what he had to
6:03
Speaker 13: a little bit, what he had to say.
6:04
Speaker 3: Go ahead. Update from democratic headquarters.
6:07
Speaker 6: MAGA extremists are on the run from sea to shining sea.
6:14
Speaker 6: Donald Trump is shook right now. Pete Hegseth is shook
6:18
Speaker 6: right now. Todd Blanche, the so-called attorney general, is shook
6:22
Speaker 6: right now. And they should be. America is back.
6:29
Speaker 1: Hey, Hakeem, winning elections definitely gives Democrats power, but governing
6:33
Speaker 1: effectively is how they demonstrate what that power is worth. So,
6:36
Speaker 1: you know, the next year is an audition for leadership
6:41
Speaker 1: in a real way. Like they have to show Americans
6:43
Speaker 1: what they're for, not just what they're. Again, supposing Trump
6:48
Speaker 1: helped you win an election doesn't automatically solve everybody's problems.
6:51
Speaker 2: So let's get to it.
6:52
Speaker 13: Absolutely. Because right now, I guess what's going to happen is,
6:56
Speaker 13: as you just said, you know, they won. But people
6:58
Speaker 13: want to see real results. They want to see, OK,
7:00
Speaker 13: now what are you going to do with it? A
7:02
Speaker 13: lot of talk right now. Democrats, they have the power
7:05
Speaker 13: to block parts of President Trump's agenda, launch investigations into
7:08
Speaker 13: his administration. And they have a much bigger set, will
7:11
Speaker 13: have a much bigger say in how. Washington operates.
7:14
Speaker 2: And that's what people are going to be paying attention to, right?
7:16
Speaker 1: Like, we the voters, we should be able to identify, like,
7:20
Speaker 1: you know, what Democrats propose, what passes, what's blocked, and
7:25
Speaker 1: who's responsible for it.
7:26
Speaker 10: Yeah.
7:27
Speaker 13: Much of the party, of course, they are blaming President Trump,
7:29
Speaker 13: questioning his leadership. He said he was not on the ballot.
7:32
Speaker 5: Oh, yes, you were.
7:34
Speaker 2: Yes, the hell you were.
7:36
Speaker 13: But then when he lost, he was saying that he
7:39
Speaker 13: wasn't on the ballot, but he told people to vote
7:41
Speaker 13: as if he were on the ballot. So there was
7:43
Speaker 13: a lot of confusion there. But I do want to
7:45
Speaker 13: get to Michigan. That's where Democrat Abdul El-Sayed, he defeated
7:49
Speaker 13: Republican Mike Rogers in the race for U.S.
7:52
Speaker 15: Senate.
7:53
Speaker 13: He, during his victory speech, he thanked AIPAC, a pro-Israel
7:56
Speaker 13: lobbying group, for spending millions of dollars against him, saying
7:59
Speaker 13: they gave him a chance to beat them twice. He
8:03
Speaker 13: also had a message from Mike Rogers saying, you chose hate,
8:05
Speaker 13: Michigan chose hope. Enjoy your retirement. Let's listen to some
8:08
Speaker 13: of his speech.
8:10
Speaker 2: Michigan, we did it! My name.
8:24
Speaker 9: Is Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed.
8:26
Speaker 2: All right, now don't scare everybody. You just got hit.
8:31
Speaker 2: I ain't hear you say that whole campaign. That was crazy.
8:35
Speaker 16: To stand here as your senator-elect from the great state
8:38
Speaker 16: of Michigan. Up until right about now, you might have
8:46
Speaker 16: noticed I always say, inshallah, or God willing, whenever the
8:50
Speaker 16: outcome of this race was mentioned, But today, tonight, we
8:55
Speaker 16: can turn that, inshallah, into alhamdulillah.
9:02
Speaker 3: Yo.
9:03
Speaker 13: There you have it, he said.
9:05
Speaker 2: But he's a quality candidate, though.
9:07
Speaker 17: He is.
9:07
Speaker 1: Regardless of what he is. I don't care about the
9:10
Speaker 1: identity politics in this. He is a great candidate.
9:13
Speaker 2: When you hear Dr.
9:14
Speaker 1: Abdul El-Sayed speak, he has plans.
9:18
Speaker 2: And they're common sense plans for the everyday working class person. Whatever.
9:24
Speaker 1: That's all I care about. They got good quality candidates.
9:26
Speaker 13: Yeah. And then, lastly this hour, we're going to switch
9:29
Speaker 13: over to Florida, where Democrat... Angie Nixon, she lost her U.S.
9:33
Speaker 13: Senate race to Republican Ashley Moody, but she's already talking
9:38
Speaker 13: about 2028. So speaking to her supporters in Jacksonville, Nixon
9:41
Speaker 13: made it clear that she's not done with politics.
9:44
Speaker 3: Let's listen.
9:45
Speaker 18: I need y'all to stay in this fight.
9:51
Speaker 14: The war is not over.
9:52
Speaker 19: 2028 is around the corner.
10:07
Speaker 14: So Ashley Moody.
10:09
Speaker 19: You better get it right. Because we're coming for you.
10:23
Speaker 2: Democrats are going to need Angie Nixon because she's an
10:26
Speaker 2: effective messenger. She's an effective communicator. She galvanized people. Folks
10:30
Speaker 2: trust her.
10:30
Speaker 1: Democrats should be ashamed of themselves for not giving her
10:33
Speaker 1: the resources that she needs in Florida because she potentially
10:35
Speaker 1: could have won that race. But for the next year
10:38
Speaker 1: and some change, they're going to absolutely positively need her
10:40
Speaker 1: because people like her are the now and future.
10:42
Speaker 2: Of the Democratic Party.
10:43
Speaker 3: Absolutely.
10:44
Speaker 5: She had, what, over 3.8 million people come out and
10:46
Speaker 5: vote for her. And like you said, there was no
10:48
Speaker 5: resources for her. She did it from grassroots.
10:50
Speaker 2: Grassroots, galvanizing the people. So I'm going to close bombs
10:53
Speaker 2: for Angie next.
10:53
Speaker 5: Salute to Angie.
10:54
Speaker 2: Nothing to be ashamed of.
10:55
Speaker 5: Nothing at all.
10:56
Speaker 2: Nothing at all.
10:57
Speaker 10: Yep.
10:57
Speaker 13: So coming up in the next hour, we have a
10:59
Speaker 13: lot more. There are some races that are too close
11:01
Speaker 13: to call, even still this morning. So we're going to
11:03
Speaker 13: get into that.
11:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, I see our guy Scott Coleman.
11:05
Speaker 9: He's neck and neck.
11:06
Speaker 2: He's neck and neck. Yeah.
11:07
Speaker 4: Yeah.
11:08
Speaker 13: So we're going to talk about that. We're going to
11:09
Speaker 13: talk about Keisha Lance Bottoms. David Crawley. We talked to
11:13
Speaker 13: him a little bit yesterday in Front Page News. So
11:15
Speaker 13: we have a lot to get to. We're going to
11:17
Speaker 13: talk about that all in the seventh.
11:18
Speaker 3: All right.

12:09
Speaker 14: And also, I'm just glad that we went out and
12:13
Speaker 14: voted and did what was needed to be done.
12:15
Speaker 5: That's right.
12:15
Speaker 1: Salute to Annie Andrews in South Carolina. She won her
12:18
Speaker 1: Senate seat in South Carolina. I will say this, though.
12:21
Speaker 1: It's a little bit. No, I ain't going to say
12:22
Speaker 1: it's bittersweet. I'm happy Annie Andrews won. But I do
12:25
Speaker 1: know that there's a lot of people who went in
12:26
Speaker 1: that voting booth and voted for Annie Andrews but did
12:29
Speaker 1: not vote for Dr.
12:31
Speaker 2: Jermaine Johnson.
12:33
Speaker 8: Crazy.
12:34
Speaker 10: I'm mad. I'm glad that she warned us.
12:36
Speaker 2: Me too.
12:37
Speaker 3: I am. I am.
12:37
Speaker 22: I am.
12:38

12:38
Speaker 2: Absolutely. She won by a lot too.
12:41
Speaker 10: Yeah, and I wanted the other guy to win.
12:42
Speaker 14: What's his name?
12:44
Speaker 10: Who, please? Who? What? The black guy.
12:49
Speaker 2: That was running for governor?
12:49
Speaker 11: Jermaine?
12:50
Speaker 3: Yes.
12:51
Speaker 10: I wanted him to win.
12:52
Speaker 8: Dr.
12:52
Speaker 2: Jermaine Johnson. That's why he ain't winning.
12:54
Speaker 8: That's why he ain't winning.
12:57
Speaker 7: Dr.
12:57
Speaker 2: Jermaine Johnson.
12:58
Speaker 10: Y'all have a good day.

13:50
Speaker 1: America right now. And it was just a straight rebuke
13:54
Speaker 1: of Donald Trump. in 10 years of MAGA politics. MAGA,
13:58
Speaker 1: the cult of MAGA is officially dead.

Speaker 21: Took them voting with me yesterday. They had that experience,
14:18
Speaker 21: and I'm like, they want y'all to not do this

14:24
Speaker 21: So thank y'all for supporting. I know sometimes people see

15:23
Speaker 15: the political game for a while, so it finally paid
15:26
Speaker 15: off for her. I'm happy for her. Also, I wanted
15:30
Speaker 15: to commend y'all for that interview y'all did with Tessa Spencer. Man,
15:36
Speaker 15: I don't know how y'all were able to maintain that.
15:38
Speaker 15: Because when I watched that interview, I was in here boohooing.
15:42
Speaker 15: I couldn't keep it together, man.
15:44
Speaker 2: That's my girl. I love Tessa, man. That's my OG.

Speaker 10: And Trump messed up so bad, he got Texas on
16:34
Speaker 10: turn blue.
16:35
Speaker 2: Man. And they won the governor's race. I knew Tallarico.
16:40
Speaker 2: We figured Tallarico, but the governor's race?
16:43
Speaker 14: Right.
16:43

17:19
Speaker 2: Line seven, Eddie. Hello, who's this?
17:21
Speaker 21: Good morning.
17:21
Speaker 10: This is Ashley from Atlanta, Georgia.
17:24
Speaker 24: Good morning, Ashley.
17:26
Speaker 21: Good morning, man.
17:27
Speaker 10: It's a great day in Georgia. I can't even lie
17:30
Speaker 10: to you.
17:30
Speaker 3: It is, man.
17:31
Speaker 2: I'm happy for Georgia. Happy for Keisha.
17:35
Speaker 10: Last night, my children and I let them stay up
17:37
Speaker 10: a little late so we could watch, and I have
17:39
Speaker 10: two daughters. And to watch Keisha Lance Bottoms sweep the
17:44
Speaker 10: governor election, it just did something to me and this
17:46
Speaker 10: black girl heart. And to see my two daughters dancing
17:49
Speaker 10: around that living room, cheering for Keisha, it just.
17:53
Speaker 10: It just really just, you know, it takes you there,
17:55
Speaker 10: you know?
17:56
Speaker 2: Yeah.
17:56
Speaker 10: And my family, my family, they're from South Carolina. Shout
17:59
Speaker 10: out to Manning, South Carolina. That's where my mom was
18:01
Speaker 10: born and raised.
18:02
Speaker 2: Salute to Manning.
18:03
Speaker 10: And my grandmother, she passed Manning, South Carolina, 803.
18:06
Speaker 2: You already know.
18:07
Speaker 10: I'm telling you. And my grandmother passed away about 12
18:10
Speaker 10: years ago. And for her, I would just imagine what
18:13
Speaker 10: she would think to see South Carolina.
18:16
Speaker 15: Flip to blue.
18:17
Speaker 10: I'm pretty sure that she is just praising and dancing
18:20
Speaker 10: right now. You know what I mean? And then Texas,
18:22
Speaker 10: I used to live in San Antonio. It's just it's
18:25
Speaker 10: a beautiful day in America. I can't lie to y'all.
18:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, because like I said earlier during the show, this
18:31
Speaker 1: is an example of people voting their interests like it wasn't.
18:35
Speaker 2: About party or anything.
18:37
Speaker 1: People see what's going on in America and they're like,
18:40
Speaker 1: we don't like it.
18:42
Speaker 3: OK.
18:42
Speaker 5: Yeah.
18:43
Speaker 1: And you got some quality candidates that are Democrats who
18:46
Speaker 1: are out there talking about the issues that were really
18:48
Speaker 1: impacting people.
18:49
Speaker 2: Affordability, health care. Let's get to it, man.
18:52
Speaker 10: Yeah, gas prices.
18:53
Speaker 6: Gas prices.
18:54
Speaker 10: People are truly are struggling out here. And, you know,
18:58
Speaker 10: you think that, you know, you think you're doing well.
19:00
Speaker 10: And then when you start to see how things are
19:02
Speaker 10: changing right before your very eyes and it's like, no,
19:04
Speaker 10: we got to make a change out here. I did
19:06
Speaker 10: early voting. I voted on October 13th at 751 in
19:10
Speaker 10: the morning. That was the first day of early voting.
19:13
Speaker 10: And I made sure I went out there and I
19:14
Speaker 10: cast my vote. And so to see Keisha and Ossoff
19:17
Speaker 10: and Justin Everybody do what they had to do to
19:19
Speaker 10: get the job done. Man, it's a beautiful day in Georgia.
19:22
Speaker 2: I agree.
19:22
Speaker 1: And that's the other thing I love about what we
19:25
Speaker 1: saw last night, man. The Democratic coalition is so different.
19:29
Speaker 1: And that's what represents.
19:30
Speaker 2: America, right?
19:31
Speaker 3: Dr.
19:31
Speaker 1: Abdul El-Sayed isn't the same as James Tallarico.
19:35
Speaker 2: James Tallarico is.
19:36
Speaker 1: The same as Keisha Lance Bottoms and John Ossoff but
19:39
Speaker 1: the one thing that they all have in common is
19:42
Speaker 1: they are out here talking about the one issue that
19:45
Speaker 1: is impacting all Americans and that is affordability affordability that's
19:50
Speaker 1: it that's right that's it well get it off your
19:52
Speaker 1: chest 800-585-1051.
19:55
Speaker 5: When we come back we got the latest with lauren
19:57
Speaker 5: she's breaking down uh chris rock in a new interview
19:59
Speaker 5: he talks about how he was a bad husband during
20:01
Speaker 5: his marriage and he talks about going to therapy we'll
20:03
Speaker 5: get into that next it's the breakfast club good morning
20:06
Speaker 5: on the breakfast club.
20:07
Speaker 2: Talk to me.
20:30
Speaker 14: Good morning, guys.
20:30
Speaker 9: Hey, girl.
20:31
Speaker 14: So, day after election day, how y'all feeling?
20:34
Speaker 5: Good.
20:35
Speaker 2: Optimistic. There's a real case for optimism in America right now.
20:38
Speaker 14: I feel that way. And now I understand what, like,
20:40
Speaker 14: my parents... Like, I remember the first time when Barack Obama...
20:44
Speaker 14: got elected, how my mom and my grandmother were feeling.
20:47
Speaker 14: I don't know if it really hit me then because
20:48
Speaker 14: I was younger.
20:49
Speaker 3: Did you vote?
20:49
Speaker 5: You didn't vote that time. Were you allowed? Were you
20:52
Speaker 5: able to vote?
20:53
Speaker 3: Age-wise?
20:53
Speaker 14: I think that might have been my first time voting.
20:55
Speaker 3: I don't remember.
20:56
Speaker 2: This one feels different because I really only voted for
20:59
Speaker 2: Obama because he was black. That's just the reality of
21:01
Speaker 2: the situation.
21:02
Speaker 9: But you was a grown adult, though.
21:03
Speaker 1: I was, but I didn't... That was the first time
21:05
Speaker 1: I ever voted in my life. I got caught up
21:07
Speaker 1: in the hype and in the vibes. But this one
21:09
Speaker 1: was different because you really had a bunch of Democrats
21:11
Speaker 1: who I think found common ground in talking about cost
21:14
Speaker 1: and corruption and health care and accountability. And you had,
21:17
Speaker 1: you know, 10 years of MAGA politics, if you ask me,
21:20
Speaker 1: were on trial. It wasn't just about the last couple
21:21
Speaker 1: of years of the second administration. It's what we've seen
21:24
Speaker 1: the last decade.
21:25
Speaker 14: I feel like this felt different for me because I
21:27
Speaker 14: think this is the first time in my life where, like,
21:29
Speaker 14: I really, really, really feel all the things that politics
21:32
Speaker 14: are doing to me.
21:32
Speaker 5: You care about politics. You understood politics.
21:34
Speaker 14: Yeah, and I've been an adult for a couple years.
21:36
Speaker 14: But I don't know, this year, I really, really felt it.
21:38
Speaker 2: And you can see it. Yeah, and I can see it.
21:40
Speaker 2: You can see how it's impacting our country.
21:43
Speaker 21: Yep.
21:43
Speaker 14: Well, in this election this year, Martin Luther King Jr.
21:47
Speaker 14: 's granddaughter, her name is Yolanda Renee King. She is
21:50
Speaker 14: 18 years old. She's the only grandchild of Reverend Martin
21:52
Speaker 14: Luther King Jr. and Ms. Coretta Scott King. She made
21:55
Speaker 14: her voice be heard this year. She voted for the
21:57
Speaker 14: first time. She sat down with CNN and talked to
22:00
Speaker 14: Sarah Snyder. Let's take a listen.
22:02
Speaker 20: You are the only grandchild of civil rights icon Martin
22:05
Speaker 20: Luther King Jr.
22:06
Speaker 5: and this is your first chance to vote. What does
22:09
Speaker 5: this day mean to you?
22:11
Speaker 25: Well, I would say it is a very meaningful day
22:13
Speaker 25: for me. I always really wanted to vote because I
22:15
Speaker 25: think my parents from a young age taught me the
22:17
Speaker 25: importance of the vote. So they would take me to
22:20
Speaker 25: the polls. I remember being really sad because I realized
22:24
Speaker 25: I can't participate like in the voting. And so then
22:26
Speaker 25: that would make me really sad. They would always give
22:28
Speaker 25: me like the I just voted sticker.
22:31
Speaker 21: So like I.
22:31
Speaker 25: Go around pretending like I just voted. Yes, I was
22:34
Speaker 25: able to get I would say my voice to cross
22:36
Speaker 25: through my parents and say through friends who could vote
22:39
Speaker 25: before me. But now I can really put it in
22:41
Speaker 25: my voice. And I think it's so important because I'm
22:43
Speaker 25: such a hands on person.
22:45
Speaker 2: So I always love to be, I guess, part.
22:48
Speaker 9: Of the process.
22:49
Speaker 4: Yeah.
22:50
Speaker 14: Well, seeing her vote, I know a lot of people
22:52
Speaker 14: are having conversations about the youth that are getting out
22:54
Speaker 14: there and kind of how that's a part of the
22:55
Speaker 14: change as well, too.
22:55
Speaker 1: I would love I'd love to see more of those numbers.
22:57
Speaker 1: I'd love to see how many, you know, first time
22:59
Speaker 1: voters it was yesterday.
23:00
Speaker 10: Yes.
23:01
Speaker 14: And I'm sure that those numbers will come out because
23:02
Speaker 14: I know yesterday we were talking a lot when we
23:04
Speaker 14: did the election with Angela Rye about how a lot
23:07
Speaker 14: of the early voting, a lot of that skewed under
23:09
Speaker 14: 40 years old. But yes. Now, let's shift gears a bit,
23:14
Speaker 14: get on into some entertainment things. Chris Rock, he is
23:18
Speaker 14: covering GQ. It is their first cover of the year,
23:21
Speaker 14: and it is the men of the year. Now, he's
23:24
Speaker 14: having a conversation with them about career, all the things.
23:26
Speaker 14: You guys know he is promoting his movie, Misty Green.
23:29
Speaker 14: And they get into a lot of different things. Now,
23:31
Speaker 14: one of the conversations they get into that I thought
23:33
Speaker 14: was interesting, he's talking about what type of projects come
23:35
Speaker 14: to him now, because he's directing more. And he talks
23:38
Speaker 14: about his age. Let's take a listen to that.
23:41
Speaker 5: I'm getting old.
23:41
Speaker 8: I mean, it's weird. They don't really make comedies anymore.
23:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:45
Speaker 8: They don't really, not like they used to. You know,
23:47
Speaker 8: I don't want to be the judge. I don't want
23:48
Speaker 8: to be the, I don't know. I'm at this weird place.
23:52
Speaker 8: People are like, how old is he?
23:54
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
23:54
Speaker 8: So it's like.
23:55
Speaker 3: 61, right?
23:56
Speaker 15: Yeah.
23:57
Speaker 8: I'm older than Morgan Friedman was in Shawshank. You know
23:59
Speaker 8: what I mean? I'm older than Danny Glover was in
24:03
Speaker 8: Lethal Weapon.
24:04
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
24:05
Speaker 8: So it's like, where is he? The guy? Or is
24:08
Speaker 8: he like, you know, Michael Douglas in Ant-Man? You know, like,
24:12
Speaker 8: you go get him, Annie. No, no. Hey, I'll do it.
24:15
Speaker 8: You know, I'll shine Michael B. Jordan's guns.
24:18
Speaker 2: All right. They're ready.
24:20
Speaker 8: If that's where I am now, you know, you got
24:21
Speaker 8: to make these adjustments.
24:24
Speaker 22: I don't know.
24:24
Speaker 14: I thought the conversation was interesting because hearing him talk
24:27
Speaker 14: about his age in that way. Earlier when we talked
24:29
Speaker 14: about this, you guys mentioned that a lot of our
24:31
Speaker 14: comedians get better with time.
24:32
Speaker 9: I agree.
24:33
Speaker 14: But I think that there's a thing in Hollywood where
24:35
Speaker 14: they try to place you based on your age. And
24:37
Speaker 14: I think that's why he's out here kind of doing
24:38
Speaker 14: his own thing, making his own stuff.
24:40
Speaker 6: Yeah.
24:40
Speaker 2: And I think a.
24:40
Speaker 1: Problem with a lot of the older artists, they keep
24:42
Speaker 1: waiting for Hollywood to tell them what stories to tell
24:45
Speaker 1: as opposed to going out there. and creating the stories themselves.
24:47
Speaker 1: We really are in a do-for-self era, so go create
24:50
Speaker 1: the stories.
24:51
Speaker 2: You want to be in. I want to hear from
24:52
Speaker 2: the older perspective.
24:53
Speaker 8: Absolutely.
24:54
Speaker 26: I would love to see Chris Rock make a comedy movie,
24:56
Speaker 26: but he is right about... it not being a lot
24:59
Speaker 26: of comedy movies like it used to be.
25:00
Speaker 2: But he got to make them himself.
25:01
Speaker 9: Why is that, though?
25:01
Speaker 2: He got to make them himself.
25:02
Speaker 14: When he said that, I thought, like, well, why?
25:04
Speaker 5: It's like a Harlem Nights. Like, that was both, John,
25:07
Speaker 5: it was older and younger, but it was a dope comedy.
25:10
Speaker 26: And then also remember, like, Adam Sandler, he had a
25:12
Speaker 26: run where he had, like, man, he was dropping movies
25:15
Speaker 26: left and right. He had his core group, like his
25:18
Speaker 26: ensemble cast, that he had, like, all his friends.
25:21
Speaker 9: They would come and make movies.
25:22
Speaker 11: Yeah.
25:23
Speaker 26: But he kind of stopped making movies as well. But
25:25
Speaker 26: it used to be a lot more comedy movies.
25:29
Speaker 1: I bet you if you look, comedies probably don't do
25:31
Speaker 1: too well at the box office. They probably don't do
25:33
Speaker 1: too well at the box office. And then when they
25:35
Speaker 1: come on these streaming platforms, I don't know if they're
25:37
Speaker 1: breaking numbers like that. Like, what's the last comedy that
25:40
Speaker 1: we all gathered around?
25:41
Speaker 3: Damn.
25:43
Speaker 2: I thought the studio was hilarious, though. The studio on Apple.
25:45
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's a show.
25:46
Speaker 2: But it's still a comedy. I guess it's a dramedy.
25:49
Speaker 3: I don't know.
25:49
Speaker 5: But think about it. Kevin Hart drops movies, what, twice
25:52
Speaker 5: a year in... People don't talk about him like some
25:55
Speaker 5: of the other movies.
25:55
Speaker 2: All kept up in comedies.
25:57
Speaker 3: Yeah.
25:57
Speaker 2: You just assume it's a comedy because Kevin Hart had it.
25:59
Speaker 9: Yeah.
26:00
Speaker 5: The last couple ones were comedies.
26:01
Speaker 9: The last couple ones were, but... What do you.
26:04
Speaker 26: Mean, like, some actual, like, you know, ones that, like
26:07
Speaker 26: he said, like Charlamagne said, we.
26:09
Speaker 12: All gathered around and watched.
26:10
Speaker 2: Like, oh, my God.
26:11
Speaker 9: Like, you guys, sinners got everybody out their house. You
26:15
Speaker 9: know what I mean?
26:15
Speaker 14: Comedies like that. Big budget. I mean, not that Kevin
26:19
Speaker 14: Hart's not big budget, but I know what you mean.
26:20
Speaker 2: And a lot of stuff ain't funny.
26:22
Speaker 14: Right, that's just what it is.
26:23
Speaker 2: Sometimes they do comedies and they just ain't really that funny.
26:27
Speaker 9: Yeah, we just need the core comedy.
26:28
Speaker 14: Well, he's also, in this interview, talking about a time
26:31
Speaker 14: in his life that was a bit, I guess, difficult.
26:34
Speaker 14: But he's talked about this before when he was dealing
26:36
Speaker 14: with his porn addiction, which caused his divorce. Let's take
26:40
Speaker 14: a listen to Chris Rock.
26:42
Speaker 3: You say, I was not a good husband, I was up,
26:44
Speaker 3: I was addicted to porn.
26:45
Speaker 8: I was not a great husband.
26:47
Speaker 20: I watched a lot of porn. I don't watch porn anymore.
26:50
Speaker 20: I haven't watched porn in five, six years.
26:52
Speaker 3: The litany is, you go on, you say, I didn't listen,
26:55
Speaker 3: I wasn't kind, I cheated. When you look back at
26:57
Speaker 3: that person now, how do you judge him?
26:59
Speaker 8: It's not anything I'm proud of, but it's something I
27:02
Speaker 8: had to go through.
27:03
Speaker 20: It's like you watch a Marvel movie and the.
27:05
Speaker 8: Guy, he has to test his powers.
27:08
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
27:09
Speaker 8: They have to test their powers. They're ass f * * * ers.
27:12
Speaker 20: And they try to go to the sun, then they
27:15
Speaker 20: crash down because they realize they're not God. And then
27:19
Speaker 20: they start helping people. And I was severely humbled, as
27:23
Speaker 20: I should have been.
27:24
Speaker 14: Chris Rock was married in November of 1996 and they divorced.
27:28
Speaker 14: It was finalized in August of 2016. When do men
27:30
Speaker 14: stop trying to figure out their superpowers?
27:33
Speaker 2: Well, it's different because you get new ones.
27:34
Speaker 9: What's going on?
27:36
Speaker 10: What?
27:36
Speaker 12: So because he was addicted to porn, she divorced him?
27:39
Speaker 14: Well, it led to, there was like a lot of,
27:41
Speaker 14: there was infidelity. There was different things that was happening.
27:43
Speaker 5: I guess that was part of it.
27:44
Speaker 14: Yeah, that was part of it.
27:45
Speaker 5: But the main thing I'm sure was he was saying
27:46
Speaker 5: his superpowers, right? He's out and about and he wants
27:48
Speaker 5: to see if he still got it.
27:49
Speaker 2: No, no, no.
27:50
Speaker 1: It's not about still having it sometimes. Sometimes you develop
27:52
Speaker 1: new ones. Like, for example, right? The version of you
27:56
Speaker 1: that you are now, you weren't 20 years ago.
27:58
Speaker 2: Think about how you grew. Think about how all of
28:00
Speaker 2: us have.
28:00
Speaker 1: Grown professionally and the new opportunities that come and the
28:04
Speaker 1: new financial situations you might find yourself in. So you
28:07
Speaker 1: find yourself around a whole new crop of things.
28:11
Speaker 5: But you still test your arm to see if you
28:13
Speaker 5: still got it.
28:13
Speaker 14: But that's, but the superpowers change. Exactly. It's different because like,
28:17
Speaker 14: if you, I mean, you might've been the guy in
28:19
Speaker 14: high school, right? Just regular DJ shrimp.
28:21
Speaker 9: But then when you.
28:22
Speaker 14: Turn into whatever and you go in these new places,
28:24
Speaker 14: that's a.
28:25
Speaker 9: Whole, you can walk through. I suck it from the back.
28:27
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? I can barely get.
28:28
Speaker 9: It from the front.
28:29
Speaker 14: And then when you became a Ciroc boy, that was
28:31
Speaker 14: a whole new superpower.
28:31
Speaker 2: Think about when you first learned to wash your ass.
28:33
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
28:34
Speaker 11: Oh, wow.
28:34
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying?
28:35
Speaker 2: Like that type of stuff.
28:36
Speaker 26: So you do have a lot of superpowers later on
28:39
Speaker 26: that you grew into, you had to grow into, somebody
28:41
Speaker 26: had to show you.
28:41
Speaker 1: But also imagine being around a bunch of women that
28:45
Speaker 1: you used to have, like, their posters on your wall, right?
28:48
Speaker 11: Oh, yeah.
28:49
Speaker 1: But now you got the opportunity to actually, like, engage
28:52
Speaker 1: with them and shoot your shot.
28:53
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
28:55
Speaker 3: Different.
28:55
Speaker 14: Damn.
28:56
Speaker 2: It's a different universe.
28:57
Speaker 14: All right.
28:57
Speaker 2: You travel from Earth 616, surf to 828.
28:59
Speaker 8: Okay.
29:01
Speaker 14: All right go ahead so when do men stop trying
29:04
Speaker 14: to exercise their superpowers i'm worried.
29:06
Speaker 1: About men business okay we just i don't even know
29:08
Speaker 1: why chris having them discussion.
29:09
Speaker 5: Okay i think every man is different though i think
29:11
Speaker 5: every man is different i think that is true you know.
29:13
Speaker 27: That's what i would know how to turn i think
29:15
Speaker 27: you have to grow and i think you evolve and
29:17
Speaker 27: i think when you grow and evolve and that's why
29:18
Speaker 27: i think what charlamagne always used to say black men
29:20
Speaker 27: don't cheat when you become that man and not that
29:23
Speaker 27: child mind that little boy That used.
29:24
Speaker 14: To trigger me until I understood what you were saying.
29:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, me too.
29:27
Speaker 12: I'm like, what is he talking about?
29:28
Speaker 2: It's an affirmation.
29:29
Speaker 14: It's like, don't cheat on what?
29:30
Speaker 2: Black men, comma, don't cheat.
29:32
Speaker 14: I know, but also it's like, no, what? All right,

30:16
Speaker 3: Yes, I do.
30:17
Speaker 2: You just do that to, you know, keep your brain sharp. Yes, absolutely. 60% votes.
30:22
Speaker 2: That's all you got.
30:24
Speaker 15: What?
30:24
Speaker 5: Go ahead, Mimi.
30:26
Speaker 7: What's up?
30:27
Speaker 13: Good morning, guys.
30:28
Speaker 12: Good morning.
30:29
Speaker 13: This is live and in action as it is happening.
30:32
Speaker 13: So we are still looking at some of these races
30:35
Speaker 13: this morning. I was looking to see if there had
30:38
Speaker 13: been a winner called for Mississippi. And of course, not yet. Now,
30:42
Speaker 13: that is one how we were talking about Angie Nixon
30:44
Speaker 13: and how they did not. Democrats did not put a
30:47
Speaker 13: lot of money behind that because it was. They were
30:49
Speaker 13: supposed to win. In fact, the Democrat there, Scott Column,
30:53
Speaker 13: he was challenging Republican Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith. She was supposed
30:59
Speaker 13: to win by 91 percent. That race right now, you
31:03
Speaker 13: know what the difference is between the two right now?
31:05
Speaker 15: What?
31:05
Speaker 5: Like 100 votes, right?
31:07
Speaker 2: 43 votes.
31:07
Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
31:08
Speaker 21: Damn.
31:08
Speaker 12: 43 votes.
31:09
Speaker 5: But we up, though, right?
31:10
Speaker 13: We are up, but.
31:12
Speaker 12: It's 43 votes.
31:13
Speaker 21: So.
31:13
Speaker 12: We need more people to.
31:14
Speaker 9: Oh, dang.
31:15
Speaker 12: Yeah.
31:16
Speaker 13: That was as of 3 a.m. this morning.
31:18
Speaker 5: And how many votes are in? 96% of the votes
31:21
Speaker 5: or something like that?
31:21
Speaker 21: Yeah.
31:22
Speaker 13: It's really, really close.
31:23
Speaker 21: Jesus.
31:24
Speaker 13: So I know. So that was another one that was
31:26
Speaker 13: a little bit of an, you know, like a upset,
31:29
Speaker 13: you know, and we're still waiting on the votes and
31:31
Speaker 13: the return votes in Alaska.
31:34
Speaker 9: That one.
31:34
Speaker 2: Anybody waiting on that?
31:35
Speaker 10: But you.
31:36
Speaker 9: Oh, my God. You're absolutely right.
31:40
Speaker 2: Maybe it's from Alaska.
31:42
Speaker 13: I'm from Alaska and I am waiting on those results.
31:44
Speaker 9: That's an important election.
31:45
Speaker 14: It is the.
31:46
Speaker 13: Important election because, you know, Donald Trump, they DOJ, everyone
31:50
Speaker 13: they tried to sue before the election results even came out.
31:53
Speaker 13: And so but Republican Dan Sullivan, he is winning, you know,
31:57
Speaker 13: by the slight, slight margin right now. But it is
32:00
Speaker 13: still too close to call.
32:02
Speaker 5: What's the young lady's name?
32:03
Speaker 13: Mary Patola.
32:04
Speaker 5: Mary Patola. How many what's percentage of the votes reported
32:07
Speaker 5: so far?
32:08
Speaker 13: It looks like 90s.
32:08
Speaker 9: 6%?
32:12
Speaker 2: I'd say Alaska's results might take two weeks to come in.
32:16
Speaker 13: Because it's a rank and choice vote there. Rank choice voting,
32:21
Speaker 13: meaning if no one gets more than 50% voters. their
32:25
Speaker 13: second choice will help decide the winner.
32:26
Speaker 2: I'm very interested to see what happens in Mississippi as well.
32:29
Speaker 13: Yeah, very excited. I am excited because if he wins,
32:33
Speaker 13: that would be crazy in Mississippi.
32:35
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
32:36
Speaker 1: Sluice to Scott Colum. He was here on Monday.
32:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was here on Monday.
32:38
Speaker 4: Yep.
32:40
Speaker 13: And then, you know, we got to go to Georgia
32:42
Speaker 13: where there was another historic victory. That's where Democrat Keisha
32:45
Speaker 13: Lance Bottoms, yes, she defeated Republican billionaire Rick Jackson. Now,
32:51
Speaker 13: she is now the first black woman ever elected governor
32:55
Speaker 13: in American history. She's also Georgia's first woman governor. Now,
32:59
Speaker 13: this is a major political shift because Georgia has not
33:02
Speaker 13: elected a Democratic governor since 1998. That's been about 28 years. Now,
33:09
Speaker 13: she's also the former mayor of Atlanta. She worked for
33:11
Speaker 13: the Biden administration. Her opponent spent $ 100 million of his
33:17
Speaker 13: own money to defeat her.
33:18
Speaker 2: Dropping the clues bonds for Keisha Lance Bottoms. Yeah.
33:21
Speaker 1: You know, I keep saying it over and over, but
33:24
Speaker 1: the quality of candidates on the Democratic side, I have never.
33:30
Speaker 2: Had been more optimistic about in my life.
33:32
Speaker 1: OK, because they're all focusing on everyday economic concerns rather
33:37
Speaker 1: than getting trapped in cultural battles.
33:40
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
33:41
Speaker 1: So salute to Keisha Lance Bottoms. And I'm going to
33:43
Speaker 1: tell you something else. Don't play around. I know it's early.
33:46
Speaker 1: And it really does depend on how they govern over
33:48
Speaker 1: the next year and some change. But all soft bottoms
33:52
Speaker 1: in 2028, that's a hell of a ticket.
33:54
Speaker 5: Yeah.
33:54
Speaker 2: That's a hell of a ticket.
33:56
Speaker 9: You said all soft bottoms?
33:58
Speaker 2: All right, man. She's crazy.
34:00
Speaker 9: All right, man.
34:01
Speaker 2: That's what I said. That's exactly what I said.
34:03
Speaker 9: I think we have some.
34:08
Speaker 5: That's all you heard, all soft bottoms.
34:10
Speaker 9: I thought that's what he was trying to say.
34:13
Speaker 12: I don't know.
34:13
Speaker 1: That sounds like something you order.
34:18
Speaker 2: I want all soft bottoms.
34:20
Speaker 5: I want bottoms all soft.
34:22
Speaker 10: Right.
34:23
Speaker 9: Hilarious.
34:24
Speaker 13: I think we have some of Keisha's victory speech, guys.
34:28
Speaker 18: Georgia, this win is for all of us. Thank you, Georgia.
34:34
Speaker 18: I am honored to be your 84th governor. And no
34:38
Speaker 18: matter who you voted for tonight... I will be a
34:43
Speaker 18: governor for all of Georgia. So, Georgia, I have said
34:47
Speaker 18: over the past few days, if I were your woman, well,
34:51
Speaker 18: now I am your woman. And here is what I
34:55
Speaker 18: will do. I will never, ever, ever.
34:59
Speaker 14: Stop loving you.
35:01
Speaker 18: Thank you, Georgia, for electing me as your governor. God
35:07
Speaker 18: bless you all, and may God bless our great state.
35:12
Speaker 14: Thank you.
35:13
Speaker 9: Period.
35:14
Speaker 2: Keisha didn't leave no stone unturned either, y'all.
35:17
Speaker 3: No.
35:17
Speaker 2: Keisha came to Breakfast Club on her campaign trail.
35:20
Speaker 3: Yep.
35:20
Speaker 2: Yesterday, Keisha zoomed in.
35:21
Speaker 3: That's right.
35:22
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? On the day of the election.
35:24
Speaker 2: She's working. She was working.
35:26
Speaker 3: That's right.
35:26
Speaker 5: She was touching the people.
35:27
Speaker 2: She left no stone unturned.
35:28
Speaker 11: Yeah.
35:29
Speaker 7: Okay?
35:29
Speaker 1: Just wanted to record the show that Keisha Lance Bottoms
35:31
Speaker 1: zoomed in yesterday. She won her.
35:33
Speaker 2: Governor race.
35:34
Speaker 1: And love it or hate it, Byron Donald zoomed in yesterday, too.
35:39
Speaker 2: He won his governor race.
35:40
Speaker 13: Also, love it or hate it, which we love, David
35:43
Speaker 13: Crawley also called in on Front Page News, and he won.
35:45
Speaker 3: Oh, that's right.
35:46
Speaker 2: David Crawley won governor of Wisconsin.
35:47
Speaker 9: And he won governor of Wisconsin. Shout out to the
35:49
Speaker 9: breakfast table.
35:50
Speaker 2: I'm just saying.
35:50
Speaker 9: I'm just saying.
35:52
Speaker 2: Everybody who called in yesterday won their races.
35:55
Speaker 10: Wait, wait, wait.
35:58
Speaker 13: Okay, really, one more thing I want to get to
36:00
Speaker 13: before we have to go, guys, because Trump this morning
36:02
Speaker 13: is also speaking out.
36:04
Speaker 5: He mad mad.
36:04
Speaker 2: We won't let him from you no more, Trump.
36:06
Speaker 5: Well, he's mad mad.
36:07
Speaker 13: He's blaming some Fox News polling. Let's listen to what
36:10
Speaker 13: he had to say really quick.
36:11
Speaker 7: And then I read at Fox that I'm not popular.
36:13
Speaker 7: You know, I mean, the Fox polls are terrible. You
36:16
Speaker 7: ought to get yourself a good pollster because your pollster
36:18
Speaker 7: is the worst.
36:19
Speaker 5: But tonight, actually, the results are pretty close to what
36:21
Speaker 5: the Fox polls showed.
36:22
Speaker 7: Well, I don't know about that. I can just tell
36:24
Speaker 7: you about speaking for myself and... The results with Fox
36:28
Speaker 7: with me were wrong for 12 years. I mean, they've
36:31
Speaker 7: gotten me wrong for 12 years. But I don't care.
36:33
Speaker 7: It doesn't matter. People, you know, people see when you
36:36
Speaker 7: when you look at the pollster recently that admitted they
36:40
Speaker 7: weren't even doing polls and they gave the information to
36:42
Speaker 7: The New York Times and they weren't even a legit.
36:45
Speaker 7: There wasn't even a question of legit. The one that
36:48
Speaker 7: just went out of business, they announced we never read.
36:51
Speaker 2: And then I read it, Fox.
36:53
Speaker 1: This was a middle finger to Donald Trump in 10
36:55
Speaker 1: years of MAGA politics, okay? A referendum on Donald Trump
36:58
Speaker 1: in 10 years of MAGA politics, okay? All of the
37:01
Speaker 1: political promises that Trump made that haven't translated into a
37:05
Speaker 1: more affordable, secure life.
37:07
Speaker 2: America said, uh-uh, you got to go.
37:09
Speaker 1: And when you get up, when you get on platforms
37:11
Speaker 1: and say things like, yeah, the gas prices are high,
37:12
Speaker 1: but it don't matter because we're getting rich.
37:14
Speaker 2: What do you think people are going to do? Exactly.
37:15
Speaker 1: When you tell people that you're not going to take
37:17
Speaker 1: them into any new wars, but then you get us
37:19
Speaker 1: in the war with Iran and it causes gas prices
37:22
Speaker 1: to go up and your tariffs cause retail prices to
37:24
Speaker 1: go up and people can look and point.
37:26
Speaker 2: Directly at you and say, you're the problem. What the
37:29
Speaker 2: hell you think will happen during the midterms?
37:30
Speaker 6: Yeah.
37:32
Speaker 10: Yep.
37:32
Speaker 13: All right, y'all.
37:32
Speaker 2: And these are his people, by the way. Let's be clear.
37:35
Speaker 2: This is Georgia. This is Texas. Okay?
37:37
Speaker 3: This is Kansas.
37:39
Speaker 8: Right?
37:39
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? These are his people. Yep.
37:42
Speaker 13: These are his people. That's where they got these wins from.
37:44
Speaker 13: And shout out, when you said Texas, James Chalarico. I
37:47
Speaker 13: know we talked about him a little bit, but shout
37:48
Speaker 13: out to James Chalarico. He pulled that off.
37:50
Speaker 2: And the governor race in Texas.
37:52
Speaker 9: That's unbelievable.
37:52
Speaker 13: And the governor race in Texas as well.
37:54
Speaker 10: Absolutely.
37:55
Speaker 5: You got to go, guys.
37:56
Speaker 14: We got to go.
37:57
Speaker 13: There's more, but we got to go. But that is

38:09
Speaker 5: Now, when we come back, we have Neil deGrasse Tyson.
38:11
Speaker 5: He has a new book, Take Me to Your Leader.
38:13
Speaker 5: And we're going to talk to him next.
38:14
Speaker 3: So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
38:16
Speaker 8: Morning, everybody.
38:16
Speaker 5: It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
38:20
Speaker 5: The Breakfast Club. Lola Rose is here as well.
38:23
Speaker 2: We got a special guest in the building. One of
38:25
Speaker 2: my favorite people to listen to. One of my favorite
38:26
Speaker 2: people to hear talk, man.
38:27
Speaker 15: That's right.
38:28
Speaker 2: And you're from the Bronx, right?
38:29
Speaker 3: Bronx in the house.
38:30
Speaker 8: The Bronx!
38:31
Speaker 2: Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
38:32
Speaker 8: Welcome, brother.
38:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the East Bronx. East Bronx. Castle Hill Housing Project.
38:36
Speaker 10: Okay.
38:36
Speaker 3: Over there near the Whitestone Bridge.
38:39
Speaker 5: So for people that don't know who Neil is, DeGrasse Tyson,
38:42
Speaker 5: can you just break down some of the things?
38:43
Speaker 2: I don't have time to talk to those people. You're
38:45
Speaker 2: under a rock.
38:51
Speaker 3: I was born and raised in New York City. Discovered
38:54
Speaker 3: the universe in a first family visit to the Hayden Planetarium.
38:58
Speaker 3: Right there, it's part of the American Museum of Natural History.
39:01
Speaker 3: We all went there as kids. We had dinosaurs and things,
39:03
Speaker 3: but there's also an attached planetarium. And I was hooked.
39:07
Speaker 3: In fact, I kind of think the universe chose me
39:10
Speaker 3: I was like star struck under that sky the lights
39:13
Speaker 3: dim the stars come out and I just like the
39:17
Speaker 3: immensity of it and and how much we didn't yet
39:20
Speaker 3: know that intrigued me so people many people have to
39:22
Speaker 3: have answers at every moment if you learn to love
39:25
Speaker 3: the questions themselves then your life... becomes one of, it's
39:30
Speaker 3: a journey, a discovery.
39:31
Speaker 2: That's what I like about you, though, because you are
39:34
Speaker 2: an expert, but you don't act like an expert. Oh,
39:36
Speaker 2: what does that mean? Because you're always, there's always a
39:39
Speaker 2: sense of discovery with you.
39:40
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, no, it is. Oh, I see what you're saying.
39:42
Speaker 3: Because experts, I know everything, just ask me everything. But no,
39:46
Speaker 3: I'm as curious as an adult as any of us
39:49
Speaker 3: were as kids. If you retain your curiosity, I think
39:52
Speaker 3: you become a scientist because the world is your It
39:56
Speaker 3: is your petri dish. That's nasty.
39:59
Speaker 10: Okay.
39:59
Speaker 3: Can you sing?
39:59
Speaker 5: In the shower.
40:00
Speaker 21: Okay.
40:00
Speaker 2: Cause I don't know why.
40:01
Speaker 9: As soon as you walked through the door, I was like.
40:03
Speaker 3: You just give like, you can sing. So I got this.
40:07
Speaker 9: I got this. I put on my planetarium voice.
40:18
Speaker 3: Welcome to the universe.
40:19
Speaker 2: You know. Welcome.
40:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just, in the shower, I sound real good.
40:23
Speaker 3: But outside the shower, no. Don't ask me.
40:26
Speaker 2: I want to jump right into it.
40:27
Speaker 3: Are there aliens?
40:28
Speaker 5: Have you seen them? Have we discovered them? Should we
40:30
Speaker 5: be concerned? Should we be scared?
40:32
Speaker 2: As much as he don't like the Russian and stuff,
40:33
Speaker 2: you're just going to jump in and out? You know
40:35
Speaker 2: what I'm saying? You're not even going to talk about
40:37
Speaker 2: his book. Take me to your leader.
40:38
Speaker 3: Get the perspectives on your phone.
40:40
Speaker 2: That's the why. When you were in the Bronx in
40:43
Speaker 2: Skyview and you looked up... See, this is your lead
40:46
Speaker 2: into it.
40:46
Speaker 3: See, that's how that works.
40:48
Speaker 14: If Elliot came to the Bronx, would they leave?
40:50
Speaker 2: Elliot definitely wouldn't come to the Bronx.
40:53
Speaker 14: Yes, they would.
40:54
Speaker 3: Get their ass whooped.
40:57
Speaker 2: What did you think when you were younger?
40:59
Speaker 3: Okay, so when I was, well, when I got my
41:01
Speaker 3: first telescope when I was 12, and I'd be out
41:03
Speaker 3: there alone, and I only ever thought this when I
41:07
Speaker 3: was alone. If people were with me, I didn't have
41:08
Speaker 3: this thought. Alone, looking up, I wanted to be abducted
41:11
Speaker 3: by aliens, like, since I was a kid. Just have
41:14
Speaker 3: the beam of light come down, take me away. Not
41:17
Speaker 3: that I wanted to leave Earth, but I wanted to
41:19
Speaker 3: see what else was out there.
41:20
Speaker 2: Was it before or after you heard about the anal probe?
41:23
Speaker 3: Oh, way before.
41:24
Speaker 9: Any comment on the anal?
41:27
Speaker 11: Okay.
41:28
Speaker 3: Think to yourself, how big is your ego.
41:32
Speaker 2: That you imagine.
41:34
Speaker 3: aliens crossing the galaxy, come look in your.
41:39
Speaker 14: Okay?
41:40
Speaker 5: How big must your ego be?
41:44
Speaker 2: I'm just saying. Just saying.
41:48
Speaker 3: That your be that interesting. You got a whole biodiverse
41:52
Speaker 3: earth here, and then want to look up your butt.
41:55
Speaker 9: I'm so sorry.
41:55
Speaker 21: Oh, man.
41:59
Speaker 6: I don't know.
41:59
Speaker 5: I'm leaving.
42:02
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.
42:04
Speaker 5: So he talked about wanting to get abducted by aliens.
42:07
Speaker 7: Yes.
42:08
Speaker 3: That's my first two sentences of the book. It's Take
42:11
Speaker 3: Me to Your Leader. That's the title of the book.
42:14
Speaker 3: And it's just perspectives on your first alien encounter. What
42:18
Speaker 3: are you going to do? Who are you going to
42:20
Speaker 3: show them to? Are you going to hide them in
42:21
Speaker 3: the closet? And by the way, if they came here
42:23
Speaker 3: in a spaceship, shooting is going to have no effect.
42:26
Speaker 10: Right, right.
42:28
Speaker 3: That's like a pop gun or something. If they have
42:31
Speaker 3: that level of technology, just go home. You know, all the.
42:34
Speaker 1: YouTube conspiracy theorists think that you're part of the propaganda
42:38
Speaker 1: machine in regards to disclosure.
42:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, so they have to think that. Otherwise, they can't
42:43
Speaker 3: continue to believe what they do. That is the anatomy
42:47
Speaker 3: of a conspiracy theory. Think about it. There's information missing
42:52
Speaker 3: or there's information that does not agree with what they believe.
42:56
Speaker 3: No is true, which means it's what they believe. In
43:00
Speaker 3: those gaps, they have to say it's a cover-up or
43:06
Speaker 3: someone is preventing. That's the only way they can stitch
43:09
Speaker 3: together their narrative. And so it's the anatomy of a
43:13
Speaker 3: conspiracy theory.
43:14
Speaker 5: So why would the government hold all the information about aliens, extraterrestrials?
43:19
Speaker 5: You know, why would they hold that from the American people?
43:22
Speaker 3: So I have a couple of comments related to that.
43:24
Speaker 3: If you do that, this is quite a cover-up. If
43:27
Speaker 3: the government is holding actual aliens, a lot of people
43:30
Speaker 3: have to be in on that secret. So I have
43:32
Speaker 3: to say a couple of things. First, Benjamin Franklin in his,
43:36
Speaker 3: what is it, Almanac? Poor Richard's Almanac. He's quoted it saying,
43:41
Speaker 3: Three people can keep a secret if two of them
43:43
Speaker 3: are dead. So he's known you can't have legions of
43:48
Speaker 3: people keeping a secret. That just does not work ever.
43:50
Speaker 3: Let's start there. Second, often the same people who are
43:54
Speaker 3: certain the government is masterminding a cover-up, these are the
43:58
Speaker 3: same people who say the government is a bloated, inefficient bureaucracy.
44:03
Speaker 3: I'm not giving you both of those. If the government
44:05
Speaker 3: is big and inefficient and doesn't know what his left
44:08
Speaker 3: hand is doing from his right hand, and is gonna
44:10
Speaker 3: manage a conspiratorial coverup, they don't comport. So pick one, okay?
44:17
Speaker 3: And so my perspective here, I still wanna tell you
44:23
Speaker 3: what you should do when you meet an alien. That's
44:25
Speaker 3: still a real thing to think about. But you wanna
44:27
Speaker 3: talk about what's actually going on out there. I don't
44:30
Speaker 3: like having to believe in what other people believe in
44:35
Speaker 3: order for it to be true. Okay? Like, do you
44:39
Speaker 3: believe in elephants?
44:41
Speaker 2: Yes.
44:42
Speaker 10: No, no.
44:42
Speaker 3: You don't have to. You've seen elephants.
44:46
Speaker 10: Okay?
44:46
Speaker 3: You don't believe in elephants. The elephants are there. Okay?
44:50
Speaker 3: But imagine only a couple of dozen people in the
44:53
Speaker 3: world had ever seen an elephant. Just imagine. And no
44:55
Speaker 3: one else had seen it. And they start describing it.
44:58
Speaker 3: They're under oath in Congress. You gotta believe me. This
45:02
Speaker 3: huge animal weighs six tons. Or however many.
45:05
Speaker 2: And It's got two big teeth sticking out.
45:08
Speaker 3: And it's got a big rubbery nose that can pick
45:11
Speaker 3: stuff up. And it's got ears the size of bed
45:13
Speaker 3: sheets and legs the size of tree trunks. Yeah, okay.
45:18
Speaker 3: And then, you know, it's like, you really want me
45:20
Speaker 3: to believe that? Okay. Well, can you draw it? And
45:23
Speaker 3: nobody can draw as well, right? So they draw it
45:25
Speaker 3: and it looks completely crazy. The world would split between
45:30
Speaker 3: those who believe the people who believe in elephants and
45:34
Speaker 3: those who just can't even... No. No such creature like
45:38
Speaker 3: that could exist in this world. You can make a
45:41
Speaker 3: two-hour documentary on testimonies and interviewing people who believe and
45:45
Speaker 3: who don't believe. You could do that. Or you can
45:48
Speaker 3: just walk the elephant out of the back shed. And
45:51
Speaker 3: there it is. Now, I only wrote this book. I
45:54
Speaker 3: only wrote this book.
45:55
Speaker 2: Take me to your leader.
45:56
Speaker 3: Take me to your leader. When it wasn't just the farmer...
45:59
Speaker 3: talking about what landed in his back 40, or the
46:02
Speaker 3: revelers at 2 a.m. after the bar closed. It wasn't
46:05
Speaker 3: just those folks. These were high-ranking people from the government,
46:11
Speaker 3: from intelligence agencies, from the military, under oath, highly believable.
46:17
Speaker 3: When they started testifying, I said, okay, where are the aliens? Well,
46:21
Speaker 3: we have them in the back, and we have reverse-engineered technology. Okay,
46:26
Speaker 3: I make the popcorn, and I'm watching it, and I'm
46:29
Speaker 3: Waiting for them to bring out the alien. And that
46:32
Speaker 3: hasn't happened. So until that happens, it's going to remain
46:35
Speaker 3: a belief system.
46:37
Speaker 5: Since you studied, what do you think an alien would
46:39
Speaker 5: look like?
46:40
Speaker 2: I don't know.
46:40
Speaker 21: I can.
46:43
Speaker 3: So in here, this is a slim book, but it's
46:46
Speaker 3: chock full of. So what I do is I say,
46:49
Speaker 3: how have people imagined aliens in our pop culture? And
46:53
Speaker 3: so you can go down the list.
46:55
Speaker 11: E.T.
46:56
Speaker 3: Men in Black.
46:56
Speaker 5: Yeah, E.T.
46:57
Speaker 3: Men in Black is quite creative, actually. Thank you for
46:59
Speaker 3: bringing that up. And because they're aliens, they tried hard
47:04
Speaker 3: to think of different... Like one of them has bugs
47:08
Speaker 3: in him or something.
47:09
Speaker 2: Do you remember that one?
47:10
Speaker 3: Nasty. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so they try to break
47:14
Speaker 3: the mold.
47:15
Speaker 14: They diversify.
47:16
Speaker 3: Exactly.
47:17
Speaker 1: In the book, you talk about how aliens might communicate
47:20
Speaker 1: with us. And you say mathematics and physics may be
47:22
Speaker 1: the universal language we.
47:24
Speaker 2: Use to communicate with aliens.
47:25
Speaker 1: And I was like, that's brilliant because we always say
47:28
Speaker 1: math is a universal language.
47:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. So you want to speak to Spanish? In Spain,
47:33
Speaker 3: you learn Spanish. You go to France, you learn French.
47:36
Speaker 3: You want to speak to the universe, you learn mathematics.
47:39
Speaker 3: I'm asserting that it's their language, too, because it figures
47:43
Speaker 3: stuff out across the universe. I mean, it is a
47:45
Speaker 3: highly potent way of organizing information and discoveries and showing
47:51
Speaker 3: how they relate to one another. E equals MC squared.
47:54
Speaker 3: That is happening in every star across the universe. And
48:00
Speaker 3: it's not E equals MC cubed. It is equals MC squared.
48:03
Speaker 3: That is it. We know it. It's experimentally verified. It's
48:06
Speaker 3: the foundation of bombs, nuclear bombs. It's not just some
48:10
Speaker 3: fanciful thing that Einstein pulled out of his ass. So
48:16
Speaker 3: there's that.
48:16
Speaker 1: What if the alien's intelligence is so different from ours
48:20
Speaker 1: that even our understanding of communication doesn't apply?
48:23
Speaker 21: Perfect.
48:23
Speaker 3: So there's a whole chapter in that called alien intelligence.
48:26
Speaker 3: I went there. So here's just you want the good
48:29
Speaker 3: news or the bad news? Okay, okay. Not bad, harmful,
48:35
Speaker 3: but just bad, hopeless. What's the closest animal to us
48:38
Speaker 3: genetically in the world?
48:40
Speaker 2: A monkey.
48:40
Speaker 3: A monkey. A chimpanzee.
48:42
Speaker 9: This man said a dolphin, yo.
48:45
Speaker 2: Dolphins are very smart, though.
48:48
Speaker 3: No, I didn't say how smart they are. I said genetically. Genetically, oh,
48:51
Speaker 3: I'm sorry. What do you do after hours? Where do
48:54
Speaker 3: you swim? I probe the dolphins.
49:00
Speaker 2: Anyway, oh, my God. You're an alien to the dolphins.
49:03
Speaker 3: Show me your blowhole.
49:07
Speaker 2: Take me to your blowhole. I know, right?
49:11
Speaker 3: Where'd you get this guy?
49:13
Speaker 22: I don't know.
49:13
Speaker 2: Whose show is this? Continue on. Chimpanzee.
49:16
Speaker 3: Okay. Can we meaningfully communicate with chimpanzees? It doesn't look
49:21
Speaker 3: that way. If you had a pet chimp and you say,
49:23
Speaker 3: I'm going to go into town and get some bananas
49:25
Speaker 3: and I'm going to stop by and get a cup
49:26
Speaker 3: of coffee and I'll be back in an hour. What
49:28
Speaker 3: is the chimp here? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Bananas, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Okay,
49:33
Speaker 3: you can get them to recognize bananas. That's the closest
49:36
Speaker 3: species to us. We are 98% identical DNA to a chimp.
49:41
Speaker 3: We cannot have a meaningful conversation with it. Imagine an
49:44
Speaker 3: alien that's 2% beyond us, the way we're 2% beyond
49:49
Speaker 3: the chimp. A smart chimp does what our toddlers can do.
49:52
Speaker 3: A smart chimp can stack boxes and reach up bananas
49:56
Speaker 3: hanging from the ceiling. It can figure that out. Our
49:58
Speaker 3: toddlers can figure that out too. That's kind of it.
50:01
Speaker 3: Imagine some alien species, 2% beyond us. We might be
50:05
Speaker 3: so stupid compared to them that they cannot figure out
50:09
Speaker 3: how to communicate on such a low level. Because we
50:13
Speaker 3: can't communicate with gyms. It might be that we are
50:17
Speaker 3: so stupid compared to the alien, they won't even figure
50:19
Speaker 3: out how to communicate with us. So the audacity of us...
50:22
Speaker 3: to say, let's go out and look for other intelligent life.
50:26
Speaker 2: So how would we establish that we're intelligent human beings?
50:28
Speaker 3: Well, I have some suggestions in here. You would show
50:32
Speaker 3: a triangle with three squares coming off of each side
50:35
Speaker 3: of the triangle. Just show that to them. Then they would,
50:38
Speaker 3: if they're smart, they would say, oh, that is the
50:41
Speaker 3: Pythagorean theorem. You learned that in ninth grade or whatever
50:43
Speaker 3: it might have been. They would see that. And maybe
50:46
Speaker 3: in that way, they won't kill us. Because there's some
50:49
Speaker 3: hope that we have some intelligence. And that's something that
50:52
Speaker 3: just uses symbols. It doesn't require language or anything.
50:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you say in the book that we could
50:56
Speaker 2: end up being their pets.
50:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, pets.
50:57
Speaker 2: That's right.
50:58
Speaker 3: That's right. And that sounds like, I don't want to
51:00
Speaker 3: be anybody's pet. However, you realize in the United States,
51:04
Speaker 3: we spend $ 150 billion a year on our dogs and cats.
51:10
Speaker 19: And the government spends.
51:15
Speaker 3: How much? $ 20 million a year? Way less than that.
51:18
Speaker 3: trying to alleviate the homeless problem. You know, homeless humans
51:22
Speaker 3: who don't have food or don't have love and don't
51:24
Speaker 3: have shelter. So our priorities are clear how we treat
51:28
Speaker 3: our pets. So it might be that the aliens, we'd
51:31
Speaker 3: be better off their pet than anything else.
51:33
Speaker 2: But isn't that a comfortable way of just describing the
51:35
Speaker 2: loss of your freedom?
51:39
Speaker 3: Yes, yes. But if the alternative is they'll just eat us,
51:44
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, that's the... Being eaten, I think,
51:48
Speaker 3: is worse than just getting killed. This is why all
51:51
Speaker 3: the children's fairy tales It's all, they might get eaten
51:54
Speaker 3: by the wolf, by the, you know, the bears. The wolf,
52:00
Speaker 3: the bear, you might get eaten. That's terrifying. It's not,
52:03
Speaker 3: you might get pushed off a cliff. That doesn't scare
52:05
Speaker 3: any kid. So someone taking bites out of you.
52:08
Speaker 5: So you did say earlier in the conversation, we cut
52:10
Speaker 5: you off. You said the conversation we should have if
52:12
Speaker 5: we ever meet an alien is what?
52:14
Speaker 3: Well, if you can figure out how to communicate. If
52:17
Speaker 3: they're really smart, maybe they'll figure out how to speak English.
52:20
Speaker 3: Because we ain't going to figure out how to speak alien, okay?
52:22
Speaker 3: That's for damn sure. So, cause once again, they got,
52:26
Speaker 3: they crossed the galaxy in a spaceship. Okay. We just
52:30
Speaker 3: until recently, we hadn't left low earth orbit in 50 years,
52:34
Speaker 3: not since 1972. So if that's all we got to
52:37
Speaker 3: show for ourselves as proud as we are of our
52:40
Speaker 3: space program. They're crossing the galaxy. So just let's get
52:43
Speaker 3: real here.
52:43
Speaker 14: You can't sit with them.
52:44
Speaker 9: It's basically me.
52:45
Speaker 12: Basically, because he is letting us know how dumb we are.
52:47
Speaker 3: I'm just being, just getting real here. So if they speak,
52:51
Speaker 3: so the question is, who do you take them? Do
52:53
Speaker 3: you take them to your leader? You're going to take
52:55
Speaker 3: them to the White House.
52:58
Speaker 17: Right.
52:59
Speaker 3: I think everybody's answer to that is going to be
53:01
Speaker 3: a no. So I recommend, I recommend you call the
53:04
Speaker 3: National Academy of Sciences. This is a science discovery. It's
53:07
Speaker 3: not a, political discovery it's not a when they interviewed
53:11
Speaker 3: obama when he opened his new um library the subject
53:16
Speaker 3: of aliens came up and i forgot how and why
53:18
Speaker 3: but he said you know if we meet alien i
53:20
Speaker 3: want to be on that greeting uh i want to
53:22
Speaker 3: be in that in that uh entourage and that would
53:26
Speaker 3: be useful if there was a political dimension a geopolitical
53:31
Speaker 3: dimension to the aliens visit But if it's pure science,
53:35
Speaker 3: leave the politicians out, okay?
53:37
Speaker 14: Isn't this why it's important? I mean, I don't know
53:39
Speaker 14: if I believe in aliens or not, but listen to
53:41
Speaker 14: what you're saying. If the White House did what they
53:43
Speaker 14: were supposed to do and we could get all those
53:45
Speaker 14: classified files and all that stuff about the aliens, we
53:47
Speaker 14: would basically have a roadmap to if this thing ever
53:49
Speaker 14: were to really happen, how we would even know it's
53:51
Speaker 14: science or just a regular visit, right?
53:53
Speaker 3: Well, so this is what Trump announced. This rollout, why
53:58
Speaker 3: he didn't bring it all out at once? Yeah. Because
54:01
Speaker 3: it's helpful to him if you can strategically release them politically.
54:05
Speaker 3: They make a fascinating distraction from whatever else is going on.
54:11
Speaker 3: So you spread it out, and they are releasing the files,
54:14
Speaker 3: and they're fuzzy videos. It's weird that people, the fuzzier
54:18
Speaker 3: the video, the more confidence people have that they're actual aliens.
54:22
Speaker 3: Which is kind of weird. And we all have smartphones.
54:26
Speaker 3: Do you realize six, the latest number, six billion photos
54:29
Speaker 3: are uplifted to the internet every single day and a
54:32
Speaker 3: million hours of video? And none of them have a
54:35
Speaker 3: sharp image of aliens. There's always a fuzzy thing in
54:38
Speaker 3: the sky. So you know what scares me is the
54:40
Speaker 3: possibility that maybe the aliens are actually fuzzy. These are
54:47
Speaker 3: sharp pictures of fuzzy objects.
54:49
Speaker 1: What about the sharp video we do see and then
54:51
Speaker 1: nowadays they just tell us that's AI?
54:53
Speaker 3: Well, now it's tough. So the bar of proof is
54:56
Speaker 3: much higher now because AI can just do anything, right?
54:59
Speaker 3: So that's unfortunate. But AI is not manufacturing physical objects, okay?
55:05
Speaker 3: So if you get abducted and they probe you, whatever
55:09
Speaker 3: orifices they find intriguing... What you do while you're laying there,
55:13
Speaker 3: just snatch something off the shelf.
55:15
Speaker 12: So they can eat my arm.
55:16
Speaker 8: No, no, no, no, no.
55:17
Speaker 2: Just do it while they're not looking.
55:18
Speaker 3: Say, look over there, and then snatch it. And then
55:20
Speaker 3: you come out, and say, look what I got off
55:22
Speaker 3: the spaceship.
55:23
Speaker 2: Now, we always talk about aliens visiting Earth, right?
55:25
Speaker 3: Yeah.
55:25
Speaker 2: What makes us think they'd even be interested in it?
55:28
Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you. Not only that. You're an earthling.
55:34
Speaker 27: Have some pride in your planet.
55:37
Speaker 3: Sorry, sorry, sorry. Let me regain my composure. Okay, we
55:42
Speaker 3: are so interesting.
55:43
Speaker 23: We are so interesting.
55:45
Speaker 9: If they landed in the Bronx, there's some.
55:49
Speaker 14: Things going on out there. Okay, so here's what will happen.
55:54
Speaker 3: I worry that we have so many satellites orbiting now.
55:58
Speaker 3: Elon alone has three-quarters of all satellites that are orbiting
56:02
Speaker 3: the Earth.
56:02
Speaker 2: Like 78% or something crazy.
56:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's up. And we have like
56:08
Speaker 3: 14,000 satellites orbiting the Earth. And we have debris orbiting
56:13
Speaker 3: the Earth, dangerous debris. If that stuff hits you, going
56:16
Speaker 3: 18,000 miles an hour, that's orbital speed. That's five times
56:20
Speaker 3: the speed of a rifle bullet.
56:21
Speaker 2: Oh.
56:22
Speaker 3: Okay, so that can blow apart other satellites just with
56:26
Speaker 3: the kinetic hit. So they might see that and say,
56:29
Speaker 3: I'm not coming near this place because that's dangerous to
56:32
Speaker 3: even land. So that could be why we've never been visited.
56:35
Speaker 3: Or they visited, looked around, and saw that humans carved
56:42
Speaker 3: up the world by what creator of the universe they
56:47
Speaker 3: believe and they worship in. Or what is their skin color.
56:51
Speaker 3: Or what is their height? Or who they sleep with?
56:53
Speaker 3: Or what foods they eat? On what day they eat
56:56
Speaker 3: the food? What time of day they eat? They'll see this.
57:00
Speaker 3: And then they'll see people kill one another because of
57:04
Speaker 3: these beliefs that are different from one another. And I'm
57:08
Speaker 3: convinced at that point, when they see the war and
57:11
Speaker 3: bloodshed over things as shallow as what creator of the
57:16
Speaker 3: universe you pray to, They'll run home and say, there's
57:18
Speaker 3: no sign of intelligent life on Earth.
57:20
Speaker 2: Right.
57:22
Speaker 5: Have you ever seen a person that you'd be like,
57:24
Speaker 5: he looks kind of like an alien?
57:25
Speaker 3: You know, in Men in Black, when they went to
57:31
Speaker 3: the headquarters, right? And there's a big video wall of
57:35
Speaker 3: the aliens on Earth that they were tracking.
57:38
Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
57:39
Speaker 3: These are people who just look a little different from
57:42
Speaker 3: other people. Do you remember some of the people who
57:44
Speaker 3: were on there? Michael Jackson was on there.
57:46
Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
57:47
Speaker 5: Okay, yes.
57:48
Speaker 3: Michael Jackson doesn't look entirely of this earth, right?
57:52
Speaker 2: That was after the surgery.
57:53
Speaker 3: Of course. Yeah, I mean, Men in Black was after
57:57
Speaker 3: Michael Jackson turned white, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And his surgeries.
58:03
Speaker 3: And Al Roker is on there.
58:04
Speaker 8: Yeah. Oh, my God.
58:05
Speaker 2: I've never seen Al Roker. Al Roker was on Men
58:08
Speaker 2: in Black?
58:09
Speaker 9: No, his video image.
58:10
Speaker 3: You're going to the headquarters.
58:11
Speaker 5: You're going to the headquarters.
58:12
Speaker 3: These are the aliens they're tracking.
58:14
Speaker 2: But Michael spoke to them, though. Michael actually.
58:16
Speaker 3: I don't remember that.
58:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was part of the movie. Michael was actually
58:19
Speaker 2: part of the film.
58:20
Speaker 3: I don't remember that.
58:20
Speaker 2: He was on the screen. I don't remember.
58:22
Speaker 3: Al Roker, who else? No, just some other people who
58:24
Speaker 3: would just look a little different from other people.
58:28
Speaker 21: And.
58:29
Speaker 2: That's hilarious, man.
58:31
Speaker 3: Shaq might have been up there.
58:32
Speaker 2: I don't know.
58:32
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying, if they try to fit in
58:35
Speaker 3: and look humanoid, they could do that until they had
58:37
Speaker 3: to go to the doctor. Any doctor with a stethoscope
58:40
Speaker 3: would know instantly if they were not human.
58:43
Speaker 14: You need to see the alien.
58:45
Speaker 2: Thank you.
58:45
Speaker 14: This is a never ending. There's so many possibilities.
58:47
Speaker 2: Right, right.
58:48
Speaker 3: And to say, oh, do you believe that these are aliens?
58:50
Speaker 3: Like I said, I'm just waiting. I'm still eating my popcorn,
58:53
Speaker 3: waiting for the alien to walk out of the back door.
58:55
Speaker 3: So the different types. So there are others. There's the Greys,
58:58
Speaker 3: there's the Reptilians, there's the... Anunnaki. Yes, and I have
59:04
Speaker 3: a whole list in here.
59:05
Speaker 21: Of.
59:05
Speaker 3: So these archetypes are from people's testimonies. Okay? There's a
59:09
Speaker 3: whole chapter in here called alien evidence, which is what
59:12
Speaker 3: people bring forth as what they call evidence. They're testimonies.
59:17
Speaker 3: So some are Nordic. Okay? So they're blonde hair and
59:21
Speaker 3: they're beautiful and all. That's a whole archetype. So I
59:26
Speaker 3: don't know that they were warring with each other out there. Right.
59:29
Speaker 3: If they're going to have battles among themselves, don't bring
59:31
Speaker 3: it to Earth, like in the Avengers and Thor and these,
59:35
Speaker 3: you know. Don't mess up my planet. Go to another
59:37
Speaker 3: planet and have your fight.
59:38
Speaker 1: So what do you say to people like Senator John Kennedy?
59:40
Speaker 1: He was on Will Kane's show, and he literally said,
59:44
Speaker 1: the leadership of Iran, China, Russia, and North Korea are
59:47
Speaker 1: part of a colony of reptiles.
59:50
Speaker 2: That's what he said.
59:52
Speaker 3: That man is famous for some famous quotes.
59:57
Speaker 1: But that's very specific to say those individuals are reptiles
1:00:01
Speaker 1: and part of a colony of reptiles.
1:00:03
Speaker 2: That's feeding into a lot of conspiracy theories.
1:00:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I'd say I'd want better evidence
1:00:08
Speaker 3: than the senator's testimony on this.
1:00:11
Speaker 1: What do you think of the theory that some extraterrestrials
1:00:14
Speaker 1: are actually time travelers who are humans that are 100
1:00:18
Speaker 1: years in the future, so they're using their technology to
1:00:20
Speaker 1: come back to this time?
1:00:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I like the time travel hypothesis, but how
1:00:25
Speaker 3: are they getting back? I mean, do we see the
1:00:28
Speaker 3: time machine here? Do they just will it and then
1:00:30
Speaker 3: they can... And why would they do that? What are
1:00:33
Speaker 3: they trying to do? Are you suggesting maybe... That'd be fine.
1:00:36
Speaker 3: Are you saying they have future technology that they're sharing
1:00:38
Speaker 3: with us? But if they're humans, that's still our technology, right?
1:00:42
Speaker 3: There's still stuff we came up with. You know, give
1:00:44
Speaker 3: us some damn credit here for what we can invent
1:00:47
Speaker 3: and figure out and explore. This is what exploration is
1:00:50
Speaker 3: all about. So the time travel is ourselves. I'm not
1:00:54
Speaker 3: as convinced by that.
1:00:55
Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
1:00:56
Speaker 3: Plus time travel is really dangerous. You can time travel
1:00:59
Speaker 3: to the past. You could totally mess with the future
1:01:03
Speaker 3: order of the universe in ways that you don't know.
1:01:05
Speaker 5: And it's good.
1:01:05
Speaker 3: Sci-fi stories have attempted to, to portray that.
1:01:12
Speaker 2: Exactly.
1:01:13
Speaker 3: Exactly. So here's an example. There's a, hypothetical particle called
1:01:17
Speaker 3: a tachyon, which is a particle that exists faster than light.
1:01:21
Speaker 3: And if you go faster than light, time goes backwards
1:01:24
Speaker 3: for you. We've never found it. We don't think it's
1:01:26
Speaker 3: out there, but we can talk about it. So I
1:01:28
Speaker 3: imagine an app, a messaging app, where you can message
1:01:31
Speaker 3: someone with tachyons. That would be fun.
1:01:33
Speaker 2: Okay?
1:01:34
Speaker 8: But watch.
1:01:34
Speaker 3: Here's a scenario that I think would play out. Your
1:01:37
Speaker 3: friend is walking down the street and slips on a
1:01:40
Speaker 3: banana peel and gets hurt. You say... Wait a minute.
1:01:43
Speaker 3: I have a tachyon messaging system. I can send a
1:01:47
Speaker 3: message saying, watch out for the banana peel. You'll get
1:01:50
Speaker 3: it before he slips on the banana peel.
1:01:52
Speaker 2: I'm going to be honest with you.
1:01:53
Speaker 8: Yeah.
1:01:54
Speaker 1: I don't believe in people slipping on banana peels. I
1:01:55
Speaker 1: ain't never seen that shit except for in cartoons.
1:01:57
Speaker 2: Okay. I never seen that shit.
1:02:00
Speaker 3: Neither did I until I tested it.
1:02:02
Speaker 14: You just randomly flipped.
1:02:04
Speaker 2: Come on, man.
1:02:04
Speaker 11: No, no, no.
1:02:05
Speaker 2: I tested it.
1:02:06
Speaker 8: No, dude.
1:02:07
Speaker 2: You got to test these things. So you put.
1:02:09
Speaker 3: A banana peel. There's nothing slippery about a banana peel
1:02:12
Speaker 3: unless it falls face down. And all of the peels
1:02:17
Speaker 3: are facing the surface.
1:02:19
Speaker 2: Look, that'll be the peel. So like the inside.
1:02:21
Speaker 3: The inside is pointing down. And you put it on
1:02:23
Speaker 3: a smooth surface. You step on that thing. Your ass
1:02:26
Speaker 3: is on the ground one and a half seconds later.
1:02:29
Speaker 3: I tested this.
1:02:29
Speaker 9: You went all the way through with the test. No,
1:02:31
Speaker 9: I stepped on it.
1:02:33
Speaker 3: No, when I was a kid. I was a very...
1:02:36
Speaker 3: You wanted to fall. I saw all the banana peel.
1:02:39
Speaker 3: You made yourself fall, Neil.
1:02:41
Speaker 2: I stepped on it.
1:02:42
Speaker 3: It quickly slipped out from under me. It was like, wow,
1:02:45
Speaker 3: this is slipperier.
1:02:46
Speaker 9: Weren't you a fat kid?
1:02:51
Speaker 3: No.
1:02:51
Speaker 6: And it don't matter.
1:02:52
Speaker 9: Shut off all the.
1:02:52
Speaker 5: Fake heads on there.
1:02:53
Speaker 8: But I was saying.
1:02:54
Speaker 3: I was actually quite athletic.
1:02:56
Speaker 5: Oh, I know.
1:02:56
Speaker 3: That's fine.
1:02:57
Speaker 2: Did you slip?
1:02:58
Speaker 3: No, no. I'm saying.
1:03:00
Speaker 2: It was an experiment.
1:03:02
Speaker 9: Okay.
1:03:02
Speaker 3: I stepped on it to see how slippery.
1:03:04
Speaker 2: Slippery.
1:03:04
Speaker 3: It's the slipperiest thing my foot has ever stepped in.
1:03:07
Speaker 2: And you're from New York?
1:03:08
Speaker 6: Ice?
1:03:09
Speaker 2: Black ice, Neil?
1:03:10
Speaker 3: It is slipperier than that.
1:03:11
Speaker 2: I don't believe you. I don't believe you.
1:03:14
Speaker 3: So here's the good thing.
1:03:16
Speaker 2: Here's the good thing.
1:03:17
Speaker 3: The good thing about science is it's true whether or
1:03:20
Speaker 3: not you believe in it.
1:03:23
Speaker 2: Neil deGrasse Tyson. That's a silent E, by the way.
1:03:26
Speaker 3: That's a silent E.
1:03:27
Speaker 5: Neil deGrasse Tyson.
1:03:29
Speaker 2: It's French.
1:03:30
Speaker 3: Take me to your leader.
1:03:33
Speaker 1: Perspectives on your first alien encounter is available everywhere you
1:03:35
Speaker 1: buy books now.
1:03:36
Speaker 2: Always a pleasure.
1:03:37
Speaker 3: Talking to you.
1:03:37
Speaker 2: And tell them the podcast, too. Oh, yeah, thanks.
1:03:40
Speaker 3: I got a podcast called Star Talk. Star Talk. And
1:03:44
Speaker 3: we talk about science as it relates to civil to
1:03:48
Speaker 3: our culture and pop pop culture there you go yeah
1:03:51
Speaker 3: don't be.
1:03:51
Speaker 2: A stranger man you're in new york man come to
1:03:53

Speaker 5: She gets them from somebody that knows somebody.
1:04:27
Speaker 2: She gets the details.

Speaker 14: I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
1:04:31
Speaker 2: She be having the latest on it.
1:04:34
Speaker 3: The latest with Lauren La Rosa.
1:04:36
Speaker 1: Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you
1:04:39
Speaker 1: have a little bit of everything.
1:04:40
Speaker 3: Brought to you by Top Dog Law. On The Breakfast Club.
1:04:46
Speaker 14: So I know we've been talking about election night this morning.
1:04:49
Speaker 14: Last night, there is video that went viral of Nicki Minaj.
1:04:52
Speaker 14: She was out at a polling place in New Hampshire
1:04:55
Speaker 14: on election night. She was there in support of Donald Trump.
1:04:58
Speaker 14: And she, I mean, she wasn't the only celebrity.
1:04:59
Speaker 2: She doesn't live there.
1:05:00
Speaker 5: So she wasn't voting there.
1:05:01
Speaker 3: They sent her there.
1:05:02
Speaker 14: They sent her there. She was at a polling place
1:05:04
Speaker 14: kind of in support, not even kind of in support of,
1:05:06
Speaker 14: you know, Donald Trump side of things.
1:05:08
Speaker 2: I think Floyd Mayweather was out there too.
1:05:09
Speaker 14: I was, yeah, I was, I said she wasn't the
1:05:11
Speaker 14: only celebrity.
1:05:12
Speaker 5: I thought you couldn't go to a polling center and
1:05:13
Speaker 5: do that. I, I, I, I assume that you couldn't
1:05:16
Speaker 5: go to a polling center and promote or pitch Democratic Republicans,
1:05:20
Speaker 5: I thought. Well, okay.
1:05:23
Speaker 14: Let me just list the people that were there because
1:05:24
Speaker 14: Nicki Minaj was there, but also you had Floyd Mayweather.
1:05:28
Speaker 14: There are some reports that Mike Tyson, Rob Gronkowski, former
1:05:32
Speaker 14: New England patriot, Danny Amendola as well, too. And I'm like, dang,
1:05:37
Speaker 14: I know people who, like a Nicki Minaj or whatever,
1:05:39
Speaker 14: who've kind of been like a face of... Go red,
1:05:42
Speaker 14: go red. They got to be pissed this morning. Like,
1:05:45
Speaker 14: wrong side of history.
1:05:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Democrats won their Senate race in New Hampshire.
1:05:48
Speaker 5: Yeah, they made.
1:05:49
Speaker 14: History with Representative Chris Papa's becoming the Senate's first openly
1:05:52
Speaker 14: gay male senator. But I don't know, it just made
1:05:54
Speaker 14: me think, like, when you are a celebrity and you
1:05:57
Speaker 14: have done and said and kind of walked that line,
1:06:00
Speaker 14: if at any point during these next, what, two to
1:06:02
Speaker 14: three years, if Nicki Minaj or whoever comes back and says, hey, y'all,
1:06:05
Speaker 14: I was on the wrong side of things. I apologize
1:06:08
Speaker 14: how we saw a lot of Republicans walking back their
1:06:10
Speaker 14: support of Donald Trump.
1:06:11
Speaker 5: I don't think they're going to walk back down from
1:06:12
Speaker 5: Donald Trump.
1:06:14
Speaker 14: Well, it was a thought. Did you find the answer
1:06:16
Speaker 14: to your question?
1:06:17
Speaker 5: I just asked Angela Ross. She hasn't texted me back
1:06:19
Speaker 5: yet because I figured she would know better than I would.
1:06:20
Speaker 14: Yeah, I can look on Google AI, but that is
1:06:22
Speaker 14: not always accurate. But, yeah, so that video was there.
1:06:25
Speaker 14: It was pretty awkward, though, but people were there just
1:06:27
Speaker 14: taking pictures, whatever, whatever, whatever.
1:06:28
Speaker 2: Hey, man, who cares? Why are we talking about the
1:06:30
Speaker 2: losers this morning?
1:06:31
Speaker 9: Period.
1:06:32
Speaker 8: Exactly.
1:06:32
Speaker 2: Like, who cares?
1:06:33
Speaker 8: Like, why?
1:06:34
Speaker 2: Just because they, who cares?
1:06:35
Speaker 14: I just wanted to know if she apologized after, you know, things.
1:06:38
Speaker 3: Her tie changed.
1:06:39
Speaker 2: She's not going to apologize about them kind of hypotheticals
1:06:40
Speaker 2: at a time like this.
1:06:41
Speaker 14: You're right.
1:06:42
Speaker 2: Who cares?
1:06:43
Speaker 5: All right, let's shift gears.
1:06:44
Speaker 14: Let's talk about another apology. So, 2 Chainz. Remember, we
1:06:47
Speaker 14: were talking about Keith Lee and 2 Chainz. They sat
1:06:50
Speaker 14: down on Kirk Franklin's Den of Kings, or King's Den,
1:06:53
Speaker 14: and had that big roundtable conversation that he does, right?
1:06:56
Speaker 14: And it went viral with them talking about celebrity privilege
1:06:59
Speaker 14: and restaurants. Now, let's take a listen to their conversation
1:07:03
Speaker 14: a bit. Let's take a listen to Keith Lee's response.
1:07:06
Speaker 2: So I'm very pro-black. I believe in advancement of black
1:07:08
Speaker 2: and brown people.
1:07:09
Speaker 17: So when it comes from the conversation of customer service
1:07:11
Speaker 17: or when it comes from the conversation of food, not
1:07:13
Speaker 17: only do I come from a place of being a
1:07:15
Speaker 17: professional athlete, I was around food dietitians and food scientists
1:07:18
Speaker 17: for years, right? I come from a perspective of somebody
1:07:21
Speaker 17: who is a consumer of black community and somebody who
1:07:24
Speaker 17: want the advancement of the black community. So my opinion
1:07:26
Speaker 17: has always been from that standpoint. It ain't been from, oh,
1:07:29
Speaker 17: the food got to be amazing. They got to be
1:07:31
Speaker 17: this and the third. But if I go in If
1:07:34
Speaker 17: you Mojo Brooks, you 2 Chainz, you Desi Banks, you Kirk,
1:07:37
Speaker 17: if you go in, you're going to get a completely
1:07:38
Speaker 17: different experience than if my mama go in.
1:07:40
Speaker 1: I'm an entertainer, and obviously we get perks that other
1:07:43
Speaker 1: people don't get.
1:07:44
Speaker 2: To say, like, I'm supposed to wait 40 minutes to get,
1:07:47
Speaker 2: that's bulls * * t. It'll happen if I go away.
1:07:48
Speaker 2: it ain't gonna it's been here before us bro i.
1:07:51
Speaker 17: Only go to places i'm invited so i never go
1:07:53
Speaker 17: anywhere unsolicited or i only go to places that specifically
1:07:56
Speaker 17: say hey pull up now it's different right if i
1:07:59
Speaker 17: go in and i get my opinion and it's not
1:08:00
Speaker 17: the opinion you want to hear you invited me here
1:08:02
Speaker 17: but then you get upset because my opinion not what
1:08:04
Speaker 17: you wanted.
1:08:05
Speaker 2: Yes my my rule of thumb in life is uh
1:08:08
Speaker 2: i i judge people based off how they treat folks
1:08:11
Speaker 2: that can't do anything for them i don't i don't
1:08:14
Speaker 2: have a sense of entitlement, ever.
1:08:17
Speaker 1: Regardless of what your status is or anything. I want
1:08:21
Speaker 1: to go into an establishment that's treating everybody the same.
1:08:23
Speaker 1: So I actually like that Keith Lee does that.
1:08:27
Speaker 5: I don't think there's very few establishments that if a
1:08:30
Speaker 5: celebrity walks in that door they're not going to make
1:08:32
Speaker 5: a table or push that celebrity in front of whoever's
1:08:35
Speaker 5: been waiting.
1:08:36
Speaker 1: We've seen videos of LeBron James having to wait in
1:08:41
Speaker 1: the hallway at places like Carbone.
1:08:43
Speaker 2: What are we talking about? There's certain establishments, them high-end establishments.
1:08:46
Speaker 5: They don't... Well, maybe there was no table available, but
1:08:50
Speaker 5: for Carbone, I'm sure the next table was LeBron's.
1:08:53
Speaker 3: Maybe. I don't know.
1:08:55
Speaker 14: It's like, yes, it is a part of restaurant culture
1:08:57
Speaker 14: to take care of your VIPs, but I think Keith
1:08:58
Speaker 14: Lee's point is that there are everyday people who really,
1:09:01
Speaker 14: really do a lot to support.
1:09:03
Speaker 2: I'm spending money. Money is money.
1:09:05
Speaker 14: We can't get away from that. Now, after this conversation,
1:09:07
Speaker 14: there was a big, big, big conversation online about Whether
1:09:11
Speaker 14: or not 2 Chainz went about this the wrong way.
1:09:13
Speaker 14: People were saying, yo, you should apologize. People were saying
1:09:16
Speaker 14: you should apologize to Keith Lee, number one, because he
1:09:19
Speaker 14: didn't even review your restaurant. Now, in the interview, Keith
1:09:22
Speaker 14: Lee never says I did not review any of the
1:09:24
Speaker 14: restaurants that 2 Chainz mentions. But you don't find a
1:09:28
Speaker 14: 2 Chainz restaurant review on Keith Lee's platform. People are
1:09:31
Speaker 14: saying that it was another food reviewer. That actually did that.
1:09:36
Speaker 2: What was his name?
1:09:36
Speaker 3: Mr.
1:09:36
Speaker 2: Chris Time or something?
1:09:38
Speaker 3: Chime Time.
1:09:38
Speaker 14: Chime Time? But there was a point in time where
1:09:40
Speaker 14: Atlanta was pretty upset with Keith Lee because he brought
1:09:43
Speaker 14: up the conversation of having to wait for tables and
1:09:45
Speaker 14: sending his family in.
1:09:45
Speaker 9: So, I don't know.
1:09:46
Speaker 14: It all got grouped. But 2 Chainz posted an apology yesterday.
1:09:49
Speaker 14: He said, I got a chance to speak to Keith
1:09:51
Speaker 14: after the podcast and it was all love. I know
1:09:53
Speaker 14: my words offended some people and I apologize for that.
1:09:55
Speaker 14: What I said and what I meant were two different things.
1:09:57
Speaker 14: I could have done better at my job of getting
1:09:59
Speaker 14: my point across.
1:10:00
Speaker 15: Tony.
1:10:01
Speaker 2: I don't think you should be entitled to nothing, man.
1:10:03
Speaker 1: I think that, you know, if you pull up to
1:10:04
Speaker 1: an establishment, you should expect to spend your money and
1:10:07
Speaker 1: you should expect to get treated like everybody else in
1:10:09
Speaker 1: the establishment.
1:10:10
Speaker 5: I agree wholeheartedly, but we can't act like we don't
1:10:12
Speaker 5: see it all the time. Like, we don't see celebrities
1:10:14
Speaker 5: walk right in and get tables. It is what it
1:10:16
Speaker 5: is because I think a lot of these restaurant owners
1:10:18
Speaker 5: feel like, hey, if a celebrity posts about my restaurant,
1:10:20
Speaker 5: I'll get more business. But what I will say, what
1:10:22
Speaker 5: I don't like a lot, and I'm not taking it
1:10:24
Speaker 5: away from Keith Lee, a lot of these people that
1:10:26
Speaker 5: review food bother me a lot of times because everybody's
1:10:30
Speaker 5: palate is different, right? What you like, Lauren, is not
1:10:32
Speaker 5: what I like. What I like, Jess, and what Charlamagne likes,
1:10:34
Speaker 5: but their review can actually hurt a restaurant.
1:10:37
Speaker 2: Well, food is subjective.
1:10:38
Speaker 5: It is subjective. It's very subjective.
1:10:40
Speaker 14: But I will say Keith Lee tries hard.
1:10:41
Speaker 5: That's what I said. Take it out of Keith Lee.
1:10:42
Speaker 2: Pause.
1:10:42
Speaker 5: I'm not.
1:10:45
Speaker 29: I'm going to just leave that there. I'm going to
1:10:47
Speaker 29: leave you on whatever you were taking out of that man.
1:10:49
Speaker 4: I said pause.
1:10:49
Speaker 3: I said pause.
1:10:50
Speaker 11: Okay.
1:10:50
Speaker 9: It doesn't matter, Envy.
1:10:51
Speaker 14: You just shut it down. It's fine.
1:10:53
Speaker 2: If I like something, I did that the other day.
1:10:55
Speaker 1: I was in Columbia, South Carolina, salute to the 803,
1:10:57
Speaker 1: driving a Clues Bounce for the 803. And I've been
1:10:58
Speaker 1: wanting to eat at the Divine Cinnamon Roll for like
1:11:01
Speaker 1: two years. But they were always closed on Sundays. But
1:11:04
Speaker 1: I guess they're open on Sundays now. So I was
1:11:07
Speaker 1: in line a couple weeks ago at the Divine Cinnamon
1:11:09
Speaker 1: Roll and had no.
1:11:09
Speaker 2: Problem waiting in line. And when I got in, they
1:11:12
Speaker 2: showed me Mad Love, salute to Miss Jodi. But Jodi
1:11:15
Speaker 2: was like... Salute to Miss Jodi.
1:11:17
Speaker 1: All I'm simply saying is I don't have a problem
1:11:18
Speaker 1: standing on line.
1:11:18
Speaker 11: Me neither.
1:11:19
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? Like, that don't bother me
1:11:20
Speaker 2: in no way, shape, or form.
1:11:21
Speaker 9: Why they had you in this damn line out here?
1:11:24
Speaker 1: She didn't say that, but other people were saying that.
1:11:27
Speaker 1: And I was like, I don't care. Like, I'm standing
1:11:29
Speaker 1: on line because I want the taste of cinnamon rolls.
1:11:31
Speaker 1: And it was worth it, by the way.
1:11:32
Speaker 6: Fat ass.
1:11:32
Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, my God, it was worth it. That's right,
1:11:34
Speaker 2: thick mustard. Actually, if y'all cater, we're going to be
1:11:39
Speaker 2: broadcasting from South Carolina State University on November 13th. Coop,
1:11:45
Speaker 2: one of y'all might have to run up from Columbia
1:11:46
Speaker 2: to Hartford.
1:11:47
Speaker 9: Anything for you, baby.
1:11:49
Speaker 5: But also, we've been in restaurants and spots where the
1:11:51
Speaker 5: food wasn't that good, but we won't never issue them
1:11:53
Speaker 5: because they could have just had a bad day. The
1:11:55
Speaker 5: chef could have been off that day. I tell you what, I've.
1:11:57
Speaker 26: Been to Roof Chris and haven't had a great steak.
1:12:00
Speaker 26: I've been to where, you know, other, other STK. I've
1:12:02
Speaker 26: been to other places, but don't nobody get online and
1:12:05
Speaker 26: be like, you know, talk about their bad experience.
1:12:08
Speaker 12: There, but they will do it quicker to a black
1:12:11
Speaker 12: owned establishment.
1:12:12
Speaker 1: Well, Yes, but we're also not fool reviewers. I don't
1:12:14
Speaker 1: have a desire to get on the radio and tell
1:12:16
Speaker 1: somebody how bad a place was.
1:12:17
Speaker 3: Correct.
1:12:18
Speaker 2: If I go to a place and it's great, I
1:12:19
Speaker 2: want to tell.
1:12:19
Speaker 5: People about it.
1:12:20
Speaker 14: Yeah, I feel bad talking about how bad something was,
1:12:22
Speaker 14: especially if it's black-owned.
1:12:23
Speaker 26: If we're going to do it for some people, we
1:12:25
Speaker 26: got to do it everywhere we experience bad treatment.

Speaker 1: I campaigned for Jamie Harrison when he ran for Senate.
1:14:39
Speaker 1: I executive produced his documentary In the Bubble when he
1:14:43
Speaker 1: ran against Lindsey Graham. And he raised the most money
1:14:47
Speaker 1: and had endorsements from the state newspaper, and he still lost.
1:14:50
Speaker 1: So I didn't think Annie Andrews had a chance, but
1:14:53
Speaker 1: the voters said otherwise. Now, I'm not here to say
1:14:56
Speaker 1: MAGA is officially dead, but I know what we witnessed
1:14:59
Speaker 1: last night.
1:15:00
Speaker 2: Felt like a political funeral.
1:15:02
Speaker 1: OK, and Donald Trump, you cannot distance yourself from these
1:15:06
Speaker 1: results because you told people to.
1:15:08
Speaker 2: Treat this election like you were on the ballot. Well, congratulations, sir.
1:15:12
Speaker 2: They did.
1:15:13
Speaker 1: OK, this was a referendum on 10 years of MAGA politics.
1:15:16
Speaker 3: All right.
1:15:16
Speaker 2: Don't just look at the last couple of years. Think
1:15:18
Speaker 2: about what we felt the last decade for 10 years.
1:15:22
Speaker 2: Donald Trump has been promising to make America great again.
1:15:26
Speaker 2: Lower prices, better jobs, more money in your pocket, safer communities.
1:15:30
Speaker 2: No more endless wars. Ten years later, people are still
1:15:34
Speaker 2: struggling to afford groceries.
1:15:36
Speaker 1: Their rent, their housing, their health care, gas prices are
1:15:39
Speaker 1: hurting families.
1:15:40
Speaker 2: And we're in a war with Iran.
1:15:41
Speaker 1: OK, at some point, people stop listening to what you're
1:15:44
Speaker 1: promising and start paying attention to what they're actually experiencing now.
1:15:48
Speaker 1: And I believe that's what happened yesterday. OK, Republicans spent
1:15:51
Speaker 1: years telling Americans.
1:15:53
Speaker 2: To be afraid of Democrats.
1:15:54
Speaker 5: OK, they're woke.
1:15:55
Speaker 9: They're radical.
1:15:56
Speaker 2: They're socialists. The transasauruses are coming to eat your children.
1:16:00
Speaker 3: Meanwhile.
1:16:01
Speaker 1: Americans are looking at their bills, wondering how they're going
1:16:04
Speaker 1: to make it to the next paycheck. OK, you can't
1:16:06
Speaker 1: pay your mortgage with a culture war. And this is
1:16:08
Speaker 1: where Democrats deserve some credit. I, for the first time
1:16:11
Speaker 1: that I can remember, have so much faith in the
1:16:15
Speaker 1: Democratic candidates all across the party.
1:16:17
Speaker 2: OK, from Dr.
1:16:18
Speaker 1: Abdul Syed to Keisha Lance Bottoms, from Josh Shapiro to
1:16:21
Speaker 1: Wes Moore, from Tyler Rico.
1:16:23
Speaker 2: To even people who lost, like Angie Nixon, okay?
1:16:26
Speaker 1: Dems stopped talking about culture wars and started talking about affordability, healthcare, housing,
1:16:32
Speaker 1: public safety, and the issues people deal with every day, okay?
1:16:36
Speaker 2: Progressives won. Moderates won.
1:16:38
Speaker 1: Democrats with different political philosophies won all across the board.
1:16:42
Speaker 1: So maybe the lesson isn't that Democrats have to abandon
1:16:45
Speaker 1: their principles. Maybe it's that they have to stop letting
1:16:48
Speaker 1: Republicans dictate what the conversation is about.
1:16:51
Speaker 6: But.
1:16:52
Speaker 2: Here's why I need Democrats to pay close attention.
1:16:54
Speaker 1: Don't get comfortable because, you know, Democrat victory is not
1:16:58
Speaker 1: proof that they've earned lasting trust. Americans rejected MAGA and Republicans,
1:17:03
Speaker 1: but that doesn't automatically mean they trust Democrats.
1:17:05
Speaker 6: Okay.
1:17:06
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear another two years of Democrats
1:17:08
Speaker 1: telling us how dangerous Donald Trump is.
1:17:10
Speaker 2: We know that. Okay.
1:17:11
Speaker 1: That's why there was such a rebuke of Trump last night.
1:17:13
Speaker 1: We know he's dangerous. That's why y'all won. I have
1:17:17
Speaker 1: one question.
1:17:18
Speaker 9: Okay.
1:17:20
Speaker 1: What the F are you going to do with the
1:17:22
Speaker 1: power that we the people just gave you, Democrats? OK,
1:17:25
Speaker 1: you got the House, you got the Senate. So come January,
1:17:28
Speaker 1: I want to see an actual agenda. What's your plan
1:17:30
Speaker 1: to lower housing costs? Are you going to build more
1:17:33
Speaker 1: affordable housing? What about health care? Are you going to
1:17:35
Speaker 1: fight the lower premiums, protect Medicaid? Are you going to
1:17:38
Speaker 1: stop Americans from growing broke because they got sick? What
1:17:41
Speaker 1: about wages? OK, people are working two and three jobs
1:17:44
Speaker 1: and still can't afford to live. What are you going
1:17:45
Speaker 1: to do to make sure a full time job can
1:17:48
Speaker 1: actually support Americans?
1:17:50
Speaker 2: A family.
1:17:50
Speaker 1: And while we're at it, what about all this corruption
1:17:53
Speaker 1: we've seen? Are we going to get real investigations into
1:17:55
Speaker 1: conflicts of interest? Government contracts and politicians using public office
1:18:00
Speaker 1: to enrich themselves?
1:18:01
Speaker 2: I hope so.
1:18:02
Speaker 3: OK. And Mr.
1:18:03
Speaker 2: Hakeem Jeffries, you're about to have an opportunity to lead
1:18:06
Speaker 2: the House.
1:18:07
Speaker 8: OK.
1:18:07
Speaker 2: You have to prove you represent voters, not just the
1:18:09
Speaker 2: Democratic establishment. You have to prove.
1:18:11
Speaker 1: You know that you have the interest that you're that
1:18:14
Speaker 1: that you're that the interest of the voters. OK, comes
1:18:17
Speaker 1: before those of wealthy donors and lobbying organizations. OK, I
1:18:20
Speaker 1: don't need another speech about defending democracy. I need to
1:18:23
Speaker 1: know what bills you're bringing to the floor and your
1:18:25
Speaker 1: first hundred days. And don't just tell us what Republicans
1:18:29
Speaker 1: are blocking. Show us the legislation. Put it up for
1:18:31
Speaker 1: a vote. Let the American people see exactly who stands where.
1:18:35
Speaker 1: And Chuck Schumer. OK, the same goes for the Senate.
1:18:37
Speaker 1: Don't let good legislation die because leadership is afraid of
1:18:41
Speaker 1: a difficult vote. Now, I understand. At least for two
1:18:44
Speaker 1: more years, Donald Trump is still president. He can veto
1:18:47
Speaker 1: legislation and Democrats won't have the votes to override everything.
1:18:50
Speaker 1: veto but that's not an excuse to do nothing if
1:18:53
Speaker 1: you can't get something passed show us what you tried
1:18:55
Speaker 1: to pass who oppose it and what you're going to
1:18:58
Speaker 1: do next and one more thing stop treating the people
1:19:01
Speaker 1: who challenge democratic leadership like they're the enemy Because we
1:19:04
Speaker 1: on your ass.
1:19:05
Speaker 3: All right.
1:19:05
Speaker 1: Young voters, working class voters, progressives, independents, they all deserve
1:19:09
Speaker 1: to be heard. You can't ask people to show up
1:19:11
Speaker 1: every election and then ignore them once you win. I
1:19:15
Speaker 1: want Democrats to give the country something we can actually measure,
1:19:18
Speaker 1: because by the time 2028 rolls around, when we ask,
1:19:20
Speaker 1: what have you done about housing and affordability and health
1:19:23
Speaker 1: care and wages and public safety corruption? We should have answers. OK,
1:19:28
Speaker 1: I don't care about how many times you went viral.
1:19:29
Speaker 1: I don't care about how much.
1:19:30
Speaker 2: Money you raised. What did you do?
1:19:34
Speaker 1: Democrats need to understand one thing. You don't get credit
1:19:37
Speaker 1: for caring about working people if working people never see
1:19:41
Speaker 1: the results. And Republicans, y'all made a choice, okay? So
1:19:46
Speaker 1: when the indictments and impeachments start rolling, remember what your
1:19:50
Speaker 1: leader Donald Trump said, okay?
1:19:52
Speaker 2: We got that clip in there about the gas prices?
1:19:55
Speaker 4: Oil prices are temporarily high and will be falling dramatically
1:20:00
Speaker 4: in a short period of time as soon as that
1:20:02
Speaker 4: war is over because there's so much oil. The United
1:20:05
Speaker 4: States oil and gas business is making hundreds of billions
1:20:08
Speaker 4: of dollars.
1:20:09
Speaker 11: So our country is making hundreds of billions of dollars
1:20:13
Speaker 11: because of what's happened in the Middle East, because they're
1:20:15
Speaker 11: coming to Texas, and they're coming to Oklahoma, and they're
1:20:19
Speaker 11: coming to Louisiana, and they're taking that oil. They're making
1:20:24
Speaker 11: hundreds of billions of dollars. Our country is on oil.
1:20:28
Speaker 11: And then on top of it, we have Venezuela, and
1:20:30
Speaker 11: we have Greenland, because Greenland has a lot of oil.
1:20:33
Speaker 11: So We're making hundreds and hundreds of billions, trillions of dollars.
1:20:38
Speaker 11: But my people said, please don't mention that, sir, because
1:20:42
Speaker 11: people are paying a little higher. That number is going
1:20:45
Speaker 11: to come way down. But what we've done for this country,
1:20:48
Speaker 11: we're making money like this country has never made before.
1:20:52
Speaker 1: F that gas prices are high and kicking your ass,
1:20:54
Speaker 1: we making a fortune, okay? Trump's been working for the
1:20:57
Speaker 1: billionaires the whole time. He don't care about y'all, okay?
1:21:00
Speaker 1: The billionaires are going to be fine. It's the working
1:21:02
Speaker 1: class people who believed all those promises. Those are the
1:21:05
Speaker 1: ones who have to live with the consequences of Donald
1:21:08
Speaker 1: Trump not giving a damn about anyone but himself and
1:21:11
Speaker 1: his billionaire friends.
1:21:12
Speaker 2: That's why elections matter.
1:21:14
Speaker 1: And that's why neither party should ever confuse winning an
1:21:16
Speaker 1: election with having the unconditional trust of the American people.
1:21:20
Speaker 1: Republicans just got reminded that political power belongs to the people. OK,
1:21:26
Speaker 1: so Democrats, now that you have the power, don't make
1:21:29
Speaker 1: the mistake of thinking it belongs to you because it doesn't.
1:21:33
Speaker 1: It belongs to us. We the people and Trump and
1:21:37
Speaker 1: the MAGA Republicans learned that last night the same way.
1:21:42
Speaker 1: voters can put you in power, they can take it
1:21:45
Speaker 1: right back. Please give the MAGA Republicans and Donald Trump
1:21:49
Speaker 1: the biggest hee-haw. We just got to keep everybody honest here.
1:21:55
Speaker 3: That's right. Okay?
1:21:55
Speaker 2: That's all. We just got to keep everybody honest here, guys.
1:21:58
Speaker 7: All right.
1:21:58
Speaker 5: And let's open up the phone lines. Thank you for
1:21:59
Speaker 5: that donkey today.
1:22:01
Speaker 9: 800-585-1051.
1:22:01
Speaker 5: Let's discuss how you feel.
1:22:04
Speaker 3: All right?
1:22:04
Speaker 5: A lot of you went to the polls yesterday. Hopefully
1:22:06
Speaker 5: all of you went to the polls.
1:22:07
Speaker 10: Yes.
1:22:07
Speaker 5: Let's discuss how you're feeling this morning. We're going to
1:22:09
Speaker 5: bring Angela Rye in, so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
1:22:12
Speaker 3: Good morning.
1:22:12
Speaker 2: Morning, everybody.
1:22:13
Speaker 5: It's DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
1:22:17
Speaker 5: the Breakfast Club. Now we have our sis Angela Rye
1:22:20
Speaker 5: with us this morning. We're going to be opening up
1:22:22
Speaker 5: the phones. 800-585-1051 if you got some questions. Before we
1:22:25
Speaker 5: jump into it, I do have a question. We were
1:22:27
Speaker 5: talking about this.
1:22:27
Speaker 8: During the room.
1:22:28
Speaker 2: Can we say one thing? Just before we jump into it.
1:22:30
Speaker 2: How she feels first.
1:22:31
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sorry.
1:22:31
Speaker 2: How do you feel about last night?
1:22:33
Speaker 9: Hi, guys.
1:22:34
Speaker 14: Good morning.
1:22:34
Speaker 9: You feeling froggy and leaping? I feel really good.
1:22:37
Speaker 8: Good.
1:22:38
Speaker 29: Yeah, thank you to you all, my family, my Breakfast
1:22:41
Speaker 29: Cup family for coming through last night.
1:22:43
Speaker 9: It was good.
1:22:44
Speaker 12: Good stuff.
1:22:45
Speaker 2: Was last night a vote for Democrats or a vote
1:22:46
Speaker 2: against Donald Trump?
1:22:47
Speaker 9: Oh, definitely a vote against Donald Trump. Corruption, yeah.
1:22:50
Speaker 29: I think that it would be foolish for Democrats to
1:22:53
Speaker 29: see this as like.
1:22:54
Speaker 9: Ooh, we love y'all. It's like, no, ooh, stop this.
1:22:56
Speaker 10: He crazy.
1:22:57
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like Democrats, I want Democrats to understand
1:23:00
Speaker 1: that we, the people, the voters didn't give them power.
1:23:03
Speaker 2: We gave them responsibility.
1:23:04
Speaker 9: And I think that power is supposed to be about responsibility.
1:23:08
Speaker 29: If it is right, there's a difference between the abuse
1:23:11
Speaker 29: of power we've been seeing from MAGA Republicans and the
1:23:15
Speaker 29: type of power that Dr. King described, which is the
1:23:17
Speaker 29: ability to achieve purpose. What Envy said, I think, is
1:23:21
Speaker 29: so important. It wasn't even just about stopping Donald Trump.
1:23:24
Speaker 29: I think what you just raised is a fair point.
1:23:26
Speaker 29: It's about stopping the pain, stopping the hemorrhage, stopping the corruption. Well,
1:23:30
Speaker 29: you saw, though, too, we've seen polling results now that say...
1:23:33
Speaker 29: that corruption is people's primary concern. They're saying, we're teaching
1:23:39
Speaker 29: our kids at home cheaters never win, but yet it
1:23:41
Speaker 29: looks like y'all are coming up on every side and
1:23:43
Speaker 29: we haven't came up yet.
1:23:44
Speaker 1: I see that point, but I also think that the
1:23:46
Speaker 1: corruption piece is the fact that when you hear Donald
1:23:48
Speaker 1: Trump talk about the millions and trillions of dollars that
1:23:50
Speaker 1: they're making through corruption, but.
1:23:53
Speaker 2: Then you're not feeling that in your pockets. You're like,
1:23:55
Speaker 2: what the hell? You can't be out here cheating and
1:23:57
Speaker 2: I ain't getting nothing.
1:23:58
Speaker 5: But they're proud of it. Tell y'all I'm cheating.
1:24:01
Speaker 9: And then say my team told me not to say that.
1:24:03
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I said it anyway.
1:24:04
Speaker 9: Crazy.
1:24:04
Speaker 5: What was the most surprising win for you and why?
1:24:08
Speaker 29: So, okay, I have to say this. I don't know
1:24:11
Speaker 29: if the kids at home know what a mollywop is.
1:24:14
Speaker 5: Well, they're going to learn today.
1:24:15
Speaker 2: They're going to learn today. I thought you were going
1:24:16
Speaker 2: to say, if you tell them they know what molly.
1:24:18
Speaker 29: Is, you know what a mollywop is. So also, kids,
1:24:22
Speaker 29: we grew up with just say no. So please continue
1:24:24
Speaker 29: to say no to drugs. But a mollywop is not
1:24:27
Speaker 29: a drug. Mollywop is when you get.
1:24:28
Speaker 5: Your ass beat.
1:24:29
Speaker 2: You get your ass dragged.
1:24:30
Speaker 14: You got dragged.
1:24:31
Speaker 29: So when we look at Congress last night, congressional results
1:24:34
Speaker 29: are still coming in Democrats picked up at least seven
1:24:38
Speaker 29: seats in the United States Senate. So right now the
1:24:41
Speaker 29: numbers are standing at 54 to 44. And then if
1:24:45
Speaker 29: you look at the United States House right now, according
1:24:49
Speaker 29: to CNN, Democrats picked up 27 seats for 231 to
1:24:55
Speaker 29: 131 right now. And I think that the other important
1:24:59
Speaker 29: thing is on AP, which is what we were using
1:25:02
Speaker 29: last night.
1:25:02
Speaker 9: They're at 228 seats.
1:25:05
Speaker 29: That means that Hakeem Jeffries will likely be the next
1:25:08
Speaker 29: speaker of the House. He would become the first black
1:25:10
Speaker 29: speaker of the House. And again, I think that making
1:25:12
Speaker 29: history is one thing, but making sure that you preserve
1:25:15
Speaker 29: what the people need and ensure they actually get there
1:25:18
Speaker 29: is really.
1:25:18
Speaker 2: Really important. Yeah, don't bring the mood down talking about Hakeem.
1:25:24
Speaker 2: Hakeem has to prove he represents voters, not the Democratic establishment.
1:25:28
Speaker 2: He should be transparent about the money and political influences
1:25:31
Speaker 2: that he has. And correct me if I'm wrong, because
1:25:33
Speaker 2: I was reading in Axios that Democrats have a House majority,
1:25:36
Speaker 2: so he could govern without relying on the progressive wing
1:25:39
Speaker 2: for every decision. Well, that's true.
1:25:41
Speaker 29: So I think that part of this is true. What
1:25:43
Speaker 29: we don't know is what that means.
1:25:46
Speaker 3: Yeah.
1:25:46
Speaker 29: Well, first, let me say this. I think it is
1:25:48
Speaker 29: really important. And I'm saying this as your sister. When
1:25:52
Speaker 29: we talk about the balance of power and what has
1:25:55
Speaker 29: to shift, I want for you and Hakeem to have
1:25:58
Speaker 29: a healthy discourse.
1:26:00
Speaker 9: On what's needed. You should be able to challenge him.
1:26:02
Speaker 2: I'm just a person who, I'm a person who voted
1:26:04
Speaker 2: and I represent the views of so many voters who
1:26:07
Speaker 2: feel like Hakeem has to prove he represents us.
1:26:10
Speaker 29: Everybody who was elected last night should have.
1:26:13
Speaker 9: To prove that.
1:26:13
Speaker 20: Absolutely.
1:26:14
Speaker 2: But him in particular.
1:26:15
Speaker 4: No, no, no.
1:26:15
Speaker 1: Because he needs to be more transparent about his political influences.
1:26:19
Speaker 1: Because you know as well as I do, corporate interests
1:26:21
Speaker 1: and AIPAC have been rude with everything around them.
1:26:23
Speaker 5: Such an amazing night.
1:26:23
Speaker 2: Why are we going in?
1:26:24
Speaker 17: Let me know.
1:26:24
Speaker 14: Exactly.
1:26:25
Speaker 9: This is the truth. Let me know when I can
1:26:27
Speaker 9: have the floor.
1:26:27
Speaker 2: This is when I get upset because- You don't even
1:26:30
Speaker 2: know what I'm going to say. I know, but we're
1:26:31
Speaker 2: not going to do this. We're going to hold all
1:26:33
Speaker 2: of them accountable.
1:26:33
Speaker 5: Of course.
1:26:34
Speaker 10: Yes.
1:26:34
Speaker 12: That's what I'm saying.
1:26:35
Speaker 9: You want some other type of time. I'm agreeing with y'all.
1:26:38
Speaker 29: We came in here agreeing that yesterday was about.
1:26:41
Speaker 5: You sound like Byron for a minute. We're not going
1:26:42
Speaker 5: to do this.
1:26:43
Speaker 3: I know.
1:26:44
Speaker 5: I'm like, wait a minute, Devin.
1:26:46
Speaker 2: Aaron Donald Jr.
1:26:47
Speaker 29: But no, what I was going to say was, I
1:26:49
Speaker 29: think it is important for us to understand that this
1:26:52
Speaker 29: is a new day. That people are expecting, like, I
1:26:55
Speaker 29: voted you in and now I know that, like Ed
1:26:58
Speaker 29: Gordon said last night, voting was just the first step
1:27:00
Speaker 29: and it was the easiest step. Now it's the accountability
1:27:03
Speaker 29: and the accountability that holding people accountable is on us.
1:27:07
Speaker 5: But should we be concerned if something like January 6th happened?
1:27:10
Speaker 2: Huh?
1:27:10
Speaker 10: No.
1:27:11
Speaker 5: That they wild out and do something strange and try
1:27:14
Speaker 5: to take over.
1:27:15
Speaker 9: Like an insurrection.
1:27:16
Speaker 5: Like an insurrection.
1:27:17
Speaker 29: I think for those of you at home, as he's
1:27:19
Speaker 29: talking about when the people were jumping through the windows
1:27:21
Speaker 29: at the Capitol in 2021.
1:27:22
Speaker 2: I feel like these are a lot of his own
1:27:24
Speaker 2: people that rebuked him. Think about the races that they lost. Texas.
1:27:27
Speaker 5: Is it? Or is it more and more people coming
1:27:29
Speaker 5: out to vote?
1:27:30
Speaker 3: South Carolina.
1:27:30
Speaker 6: Georgia.
1:27:30
Speaker 2: I think this is a lot of his own people
1:27:32
Speaker 2: rebuking him.
1:27:33
Speaker 12: And a lot of people were surprised about Texas.
1:27:38
Speaker 2: The governor's race in Texas is one of the top
1:27:40
Speaker 2: three biggest surprises for me.
1:27:42
Speaker 14: Absolutely.
1:27:43
Speaker 29: I'm going to tell you, when I heard about Gina
1:27:45
Speaker 29: Hinojosa and how much of a mollywop to bring that
1:27:49
Speaker 29: term back.
1:27:49
Speaker 9: It was, I was like, what?
1:27:51
Speaker 29: Because if you guys think about it, we hadn't really
1:27:53
Speaker 29: talked about Gina Hinojosa. And I thought James Tallarico was
1:27:57
Speaker 29: going to be a tall order. Also, let's bring that
1:28:00
Speaker 29: term back.
1:28:01
Speaker 9: Molly Watt.
1:28:02
Speaker 2: Annie Andrews, South Carolina. Didn't see that one coming.
1:28:05
Speaker 21: Yeah.
1:28:06
Speaker 9: Well, I actually thought she was going to be very close.
1:28:09
Speaker 1: Only because I was on the campaign trail with Jamie Harrison.
1:28:12
Speaker 1: So I saw all the money Jamie raised. I saw
1:28:14
Speaker 1: all the energy he created in South Carolina. And he lost.
1:28:17
Speaker 29: Well, I got to tell you one thing because I
1:28:19
Speaker 29: know we have to wrap. Scott Colombe in Mississippi is
1:28:22
Speaker 29: the textbook example of why every vote counts. You guys
1:28:26
Speaker 29: know we're down to 49 votes. 49 votes in the
1:28:30
Speaker 29: United States Senate race. Scott Colombe has the opportunity to
1:28:33
Speaker 29: make history. He would be the first black senator in
1:28:36
Speaker 29: Mississippi since Reconstruction.
1:28:38
Speaker 2: I know we got to go back.
1:28:39
Speaker 5: Let's take some coffee.
1:28:40
Speaker 3: Come right back.
1:28:40
Speaker 1: I know, but I just wanted to say about Hakeem.
1:28:41
Speaker 1: I know that, like I was saying, they're saying that
1:28:44
Speaker 1: he has enough that he doesn't have to rely on
1:28:46
Speaker 1: the progressive wing for every decision. I just want to
1:28:48
Speaker 1: say he would be a fool to ignore them. If
1:28:50
Speaker 1: you're trying to gain public trust, you have to bring
1:28:52
Speaker 1: them in.
1:28:53
Speaker 9: We shouldn't even bring that up. They have a big tent.
1:28:56
Speaker 9: Act like a big tent.
1:28:57
Speaker 3: That's right.
1:28:57
Speaker 5: We're going to take your calls when we come back.
1:28:58
Speaker 8: 800-585-1051.
1:28:59
Speaker 5: We're talking about the election last night. Angela Rise with us.
1:29:03
Speaker 5: It's The Breakfast Club.
1:29:04
Speaker 2: Good morning. Good morning, everybody.
1:29:05
Speaker 5: It's DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
1:29:08
Speaker 5: The Breakfast Club. Angela Rise with us this morning. We
1:29:11
Speaker 5: want to take some of your calls. We have Tisha
1:29:13
Speaker 5: on the line. Tisha or Tisha?
1:29:15
Speaker 3: It's Tisha from Texas.
1:29:16
Speaker 9: Tisha from Texas. Tisha from Texas.
1:29:18
Speaker 2: A round of applause to everybody from Texas this morning.
1:29:21
Speaker 2: Y'all did your damn thing.
1:29:22
Speaker 5: What's up, Tisha?
1:29:24
Speaker 10: Let me tell y'all. So I was a clerk this time.
1:29:27
Speaker 7: And I worked the election.
1:29:29
Speaker 22: I was there the night before setting up. I got
1:29:31
Speaker 22: there at 6 in the morning so that the voters
1:29:34
Speaker 22: were prepared. I did my just hilarious thing where I
1:29:37
Speaker 22: came in there looking fly, had the best attitude. And
1:29:42
Speaker 22: I enjoyed my civic duty on yesterday. It was so
1:29:46
Speaker 22: many people coming in. They were black, brown, white.
1:29:50
Speaker 10: And you could tell the energy shifting.
1:29:53
Speaker 15: You could tell the white people.
1:29:55
Speaker 10: That came in there were not fooling around.
1:29:58
Speaker 22: They were voting for their pockets. They were voting for
1:30:02
Speaker 22: their grocery bills and their gas prices.
1:30:05
Speaker 21: They didn't care about party this time.
1:30:07
Speaker 2: That's right.
1:30:07
Speaker 10: They cared about survival.
1:30:10
Speaker 2: And you could feel that energy.
1:30:11
Speaker 18: Yeah.
1:30:12
Speaker 2: And that's how it should be. It shouldn't be about party.
1:30:14
Speaker 2: It should be about interest. That's it. What is the
1:30:17
Speaker 2: best interest of the American people? And you know who
1:30:20
Speaker 2: I want to salute, too, man?
1:30:21
Speaker 1: Because, you know, she was up here yesterday, Jasmine Crockett,
1:30:24
Speaker 1: because her political strategy clearly worked. Like, Jasmine was like, yo,
1:30:28
Speaker 1: I'm going to focus on the people that are down ballot. Like,
1:30:30
Speaker 1: you know, I support Tallarico, but I'm going to support
1:30:33
Speaker 1: these other individuals. Clearly, that worked in Texas.
1:30:37
Speaker 2: Clearly.
1:30:37
Speaker 29: You know, the thing that I also think is important
1:30:39
Speaker 29: to call out, of course— This lovely Marylander had a
1:30:43
Speaker 29: great night. Also, Westmore has campaigned for several months saying
1:30:47
Speaker 29: that he was not excited about being the only black
1:30:49
Speaker 29: governor in the country. And he said that he is
1:30:52
Speaker 29: going to build a gubernatorial, which means for governors, black caucus.
1:30:56
Speaker 29: And last night he got his wish. Keisha Lance Bottoms
1:30:59
Speaker 29: in Georgia, David Crowley in Wisconsin, Aaron, who y'all remember.
1:31:03
Speaker 9: Our guy Aaron Ford from.
1:31:05
Speaker 29: Nevada, and also Donald Trump got his black governor, but
1:31:08
Speaker 29: I'm not counting him in the black caucus.
1:31:09
Speaker 2: No, you have to count Byron.
1:31:10
Speaker 9: No, he's not going to join their black caucus. He's
1:31:12
Speaker 9: not going to join the black caucus.
1:31:13
Speaker 2: By the way, that was a surprising win, too. I
1:31:16
Speaker 2: did not think Florida was going to elect.
1:31:19
Speaker 9: No black person as governor, regardless of party.
1:31:22
Speaker 29: I thought he was going to win the same reason
1:31:23
Speaker 29: Tim Scott wins in South Carolina.
1:31:26
Speaker 9: Yeah, I was surprised by that.
1:31:27
Speaker 5: Byron didn't win by much, right?
1:31:29
Speaker 26: Yeah, it was a mollywoppish situation.
1:31:35
Speaker 5: Kevin on the line. Kevin, good morning.
1:31:36
Speaker 15: Hey, good morning, good morning.
1:31:37
Speaker 28: Good morning to everybody out there. Shout out to Anthony, Charlamagne, Jess, Lauren, Mimi.
1:31:44
Speaker 28: Shout out to my seven kids. What I wanted to
1:31:47
Speaker 28: say was shout out to everybody who voted for the
1:31:49
Speaker 28: people who couldn't.
1:31:49
Speaker 3: Vote, who's on papers, you know.
1:31:52
Speaker 24: You know, we're still on paper, some of us, and
1:31:54
Speaker 24: we can't get out there and vote. I just wanted
1:31:55
Speaker 24: to shout everybody out that went out there and voted,
1:31:58
Speaker 24: you know, because it had a big effect on the
1:32:00
Speaker 24: people who can't vote. Also, you know, I wanted to say, Envy.
1:32:05
Speaker 23: My nephew's over there at Hampton University.
1:32:07
Speaker 15: You know what I'm saying?
1:32:08
Speaker 3: He's on the band. I left my.
1:32:09
Speaker 23: Brother at I Am Big Mark with a C. They're
1:32:12
Speaker 23: trying to get money together to do a big performance
1:32:14
Speaker 23: from Hampton. I think it's the White House or something
1:32:17
Speaker 23: like that. You know, also, I appreciate everything you guys do, man.
1:32:20
Speaker 23: Shout out to my seven kids.
1:32:22
Speaker 15: My six daughters.
1:32:23
Speaker 28: I'm proud of you, my son, Kevin Jr.
1:32:25
Speaker 2: You got six daughters? Yeah.
1:32:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got six.
1:32:28
Speaker 2: The oldest is 31. I'm sorry.
1:32:31
Speaker 22: Hey, listen.
1:32:31
Speaker 2: The oldest is 31.
1:32:32
Speaker 3: The youngest is three.
1:32:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:32:37
Speaker 3: All right.
1:32:37
Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate y'all so much, man. Thank you so much.
1:32:40
Speaker 5: You got a long way to go, brother.
1:32:42
Speaker 8: I'm good to go.
1:32:43
Speaker 2: I love them.
1:32:44
Speaker 15: They love me too.
1:32:45
Speaker 3: I'm active with my baby.
1:32:46
Speaker 2: Shout out to my.
1:32:48
Speaker 3: Two baby moms.
1:32:49
Speaker 15: Shout out to my ex-wife.
1:32:51
Speaker 8: I'm single now.
1:32:54
Speaker 5: I'm single.
1:32:55
Speaker 15: It's a beautiful thing though because They don't hold me
1:33:00
Speaker 15: back from being a dad.
1:33:01
Speaker 7: You know, I'm a.
1:33:02
Speaker 15: Father, okay?
1:33:03
Speaker 2: Yes, sir.
1:33:03
Speaker 5: That's what it is, brother. Have a good one, Kevin.
1:33:05
Speaker 29: It wasn't that mollywoppish. Byron Donalds beat David Jolly by
1:33:08
Speaker 29: around 100,000 votes.
1:33:08
Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying. Sorry, guys.
1:33:11
Speaker 9: Okay, there's a lot of numbers in my head.
1:33:13
Speaker 2: The one that shocked me the most was the governor
1:33:16
Speaker 2: of Texas. What's her name?
1:33:17
Speaker 9: Her name is Gina Hinojosa.
1:33:18
Speaker 1: Gina Hinojosa. That shocked me. Annie Andrews in South Carolina.
1:33:22
Speaker 1: Keisha Lance Bottoms did shock me.
1:33:24
Speaker 9: That was Molly Wappish.
1:33:25
Speaker 1: I thought she was going to win, but because she's
1:33:28
Speaker 1: a black woman, you just never know.
1:33:29
Speaker 5: She was Molly Wappish.
1:33:31
Speaker 29: So just so y'all know, over 2 million votes for
1:33:34
Speaker 29: Keisha Lance Bottoms. To Rick Jackson's $ 1. 9 million.
1:33:38
Speaker 2: She kicked ass.
1:33:39
Speaker 9: Molly Wapish.
1:33:40
Speaker 2: And Byron Donald was one of the ones that shocked me, too.
1:33:43
Speaker 1: But, man, if Keisha and John Ossoff govern the way
1:33:47
Speaker 1: they're supposed to govern over the next couple of years,
1:33:50
Speaker 1: that could be the 2028 ticket.
1:33:51
Speaker 29: That's an interesting perspective. Raphael Warnock is also expressing interest
1:33:58
Speaker 29: in running. For a president, I think that field is
1:34:00
Speaker 29: wide open. And right now, I just want to get
1:34:02
Speaker 29: through the rest of these election results. As you all know,
1:34:05
Speaker 29: every single vote counts. And if we didn't see anything else,
1:34:09
Speaker 29: we know that. I want to shout out Eli, who
1:34:11
Speaker 29: works on this show, who also went to vote yesterday.
1:34:13
Speaker 5: He has a stick on still.
1:34:14
Speaker 14: He got a stick on right now.
1:34:16
Speaker 9: I love it.
1:34:17
Speaker 29: And I think I want to just shout out all
1:34:19
Speaker 29: the young people since we had a shout out call.
1:34:21
Speaker 9: I'm going to shout out people too. And black people.
1:34:24
Speaker 29: I love when we shout out black women in this space,
1:34:27
Speaker 29: but black men and black women voted almost identical in
1:34:31
Speaker 29: the Texas Senate and gubernatorial races and all.
1:34:34
Speaker 2: We always do, though. It's just this narrative of black
1:34:36
Speaker 2: men that don't like we.
1:34:37
Speaker 9: Don't show up. I just am acknowledging something positive.
1:34:40
Speaker 5: My good brother. And I also shout out your show
1:34:42
Speaker 5: and everything that happened last night because you did an
1:34:43
Speaker 5: amazing show. I was very surprised. Very, very surprised. And
1:34:47
Speaker 5: I'm surprised that you did an amazing show. But the
1:34:49
Speaker 5: amount of time and money that you invested into that show,
1:34:53
Speaker 5: that wasn't no cheap show. That wasn't just a background
1:34:55
Speaker 5: to keep it moving. You had sets and camera people
1:34:58
Speaker 5: and mics and panels. You had a lot going on.
1:35:02
Speaker 5: So I just want to say, from brother to sister,
1:35:05
Speaker 5: it was dope.
1:35:06
Speaker 3: It was amazing.
1:35:06
Speaker 9: A lot of work.
1:35:07
Speaker 5: But next time, you better call us up. Two weeks before.
1:35:11
Speaker 14: It was two weeks before is all y'all had.
1:35:13
Speaker 5: Two weeks before is all you did, but yeah, but no,
1:35:14
Speaker 5: you did an amazing job last night, so I just
1:35:16
Speaker 5: want to.
1:35:16
Speaker 2: Salute to you.
1:35:17
Speaker 9: Thanks, MB. I will say this.
1:35:18
Speaker 29: I can't imagine spending an election night without y'all now. Like,
1:35:21
Speaker 29: we just have a tradition, and it's been incredible to
1:35:26
Speaker 29: watch y'all rise, so the things that have changed, I mean,
1:35:28
Speaker 29: it's been a life lesson, and so... The one biggest
1:35:31
Speaker 29: lesson I would say, not just from this election for me,
1:35:33
Speaker 29: but also for preparing for all of us is like
1:35:36
Speaker 29: the things that we did yesterday don't work today. We
1:35:39
Speaker 29: have to change. We have to up level. And so
1:35:42
Speaker 29: do the ways in which our people. have to engage
1:35:45
Speaker 29: our elected officials. We can't do it the way we
1:35:47
Speaker 29: did yesterday. So the lesson for us in this moment,
1:35:49
Speaker 29: even spiritually, is that it is time for us to.
1:35:52
Speaker 9: Shed the old skin and do something new.
1:35:54
Speaker 29: We have to engage the process differently, more responsibly, more respectfully.
1:35:58
Speaker 29: And I learned that royally with this show too. So
1:36:01
Speaker 29: thank y'all for your patience, your grace, and for showing
1:36:04
Speaker 29: up and everything.
1:36:05
Speaker 2: And I want to salute Angie Nixon too.
1:36:07
Speaker 1: Because even though she lost, Democrats are going to need
1:36:10
Speaker 1: people like Angie Nixon. Democrats should be ashamed of themselves
1:36:12
Speaker 1: if they didn't put more resources into Angie Nixon because
1:36:15
Speaker 1: she possibly could have won.
1:36:16
Speaker 2: That race with more resources.
1:36:17
Speaker 5: Over 1.9 million people voted for her.
1:36:19
Speaker 1: But her speech was great because she is an effective messenger,
1:36:24
Speaker 1: an effective communicator.
1:36:25
Speaker 2: She knows how to galvanize people and folks trust her.
1:36:28
Speaker 5: That's right.
1:36:28
Speaker 2: And Democrats are going to need people that folks trust
1:36:32
Speaker 2: to win 2028. Envy, I want you to know this.
1:36:34
Speaker 29: 3.9 million people voted for Angie Nixon. Oh, wow. 3.9
1:36:42
Speaker 29: million people. And she lost to Ashley Moody, who's a crook.
1:36:46
Speaker 29: 4.2 million people voted for Ashley.
1:36:48
Speaker 2: She was right there.
1:36:49
Speaker 14: You know what I'm saying?
1:36:49
Speaker 29: And so the point here is if you can show
1:36:53
Speaker 29: up and really invest, like we heard that over and
1:36:55
Speaker 29: over again. What makes the Democratic Party decide who is
1:36:58
Speaker 29: worthy of investment? There are people that they spent hundreds
1:37:01
Speaker 29: of millions of dollars on that nobody that didn't perform.
1:37:05
Speaker 29: Scott Cologne, do you know, last week they just.
1:37:08
Speaker 9: Sent a million and I'm serious.
1:37:10
Speaker 29: One million dollars in races that cost hundreds of millions
1:37:13
Speaker 29: and hundreds of millions of dollars to run.
1:37:15
Speaker 9: Scott Cologne is 49 votes away. What would have happened
1:37:19
Speaker 9: if you would have spent the money that he actually deserved?
1:37:22
Speaker 29: What you decided is that black people in the South
1:37:25
Speaker 29: weren't worthy of investment.
1:37:26
Speaker 9: And we're clocking it. We see it. And we're going
1:37:28
Speaker 9: to hold you accountable to it.
1:37:29
Speaker 1: And that's why winning an election isn't the same as
1:37:33
Speaker 1: earning lasting trust.
1:37:35
Speaker 11: That's right.
1:37:35
Speaker 2: And I hope Democrats understand that.
1:37:37
Speaker 10: Yeah.
1:37:37
Speaker 4: Okay.
1:37:37
Speaker 2: Because we on their ass.
1:37:39
Speaker 5: When we come back.
1:37:40
Speaker 2: The next couple of years.
1:37:41
Speaker 5: Lauren will be joining us. We got the latest with Lauren.
1:37:42
Speaker 5: So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Speaker 1: You got a problem. Because anytime I'm happy, you don't
1:38:16
Speaker 1: like it. And I don't like that about you.
1:38:18
Speaker 9: Yeah, but you got like a very sinister smile.
1:38:20
Speaker 3: You have a problem.
1:38:22
Speaker 2: This is so crazy.
1:38:23
Speaker 14: Your eyes get all little. You're smiling on hard. And
1:38:27
Speaker 14: next thing I know, there's like an AI photo of
1:38:29
Speaker 14: me with like Jesus hands in my ballpark or something
1:38:32
Speaker 14: on Instagram.
1:38:33
Speaker 29: And I'm tagged into this on the shade room. So
1:38:35
Speaker 29: I don't be knowing what is going.
1:38:37
Speaker 5: On in here.
1:38:38
Speaker 2: Can't even have joy around them.
1:38:39
Speaker 9: All right.
1:38:40
Speaker 5: Continue, ma'am.
1:38:42
Speaker 9: All right.
1:38:42
Speaker 14: So, speaking of joy, want to send a big congratulations
1:38:45
Speaker 14: to Young Miami. I saw yesterday that Watch This, her
1:38:49
Speaker 14: album that came out on October 23rd, hit the Billboard 200.
1:38:53
Speaker 14: She's number 138 on the Billboard Hot 200.
1:38:56
Speaker 9: Who?
1:38:57
Speaker 14: Young Miami.
1:38:57
Speaker 2: Congratulations. Yes, Young Miami.
1:38:59
Speaker 3: Congratulations.
1:39:00
Speaker 5: I see people are talking about her first week sales, but...
1:39:03
Speaker 5: I think she knew. First week sales don't mean a
1:39:06
Speaker 5: lot to artists as much anymore because it's a slow grind.
1:39:08
Speaker 5: And she's putting up the records that people like.
1:39:10
Speaker 2: Don't say that. Because if you sell 100,000 records, you're happy.
1:39:13
Speaker 2: So shut the hell up. What the hell did you
1:39:15
Speaker 2: just say? She would love to have sold 100,000 records.
1:39:17
Speaker 5: But for a lot of artists, they know it's going
1:39:19
Speaker 5: to be a slow grind because it's not how it
1:39:20
Speaker 5: used to be with streaming and everything. She got records.
1:39:23
Speaker 5: So she has records. So she's not concerned. The label's
1:39:25
Speaker 5: not concerned. They're happy.
1:39:27
Speaker 14: She should be I think she should be because also
1:39:29
Speaker 14: she's working a lot of the songs that people are
1:39:31
Speaker 14: hearing for the first time because the album just came
1:39:33
Speaker 14: out and it's going to take some time but she
1:39:35
Speaker 14: is for this to be her debut project by herself
1:39:38
Speaker 14: she is doing amazing you're doing amazing sweetie just might
1:39:42
Speaker 14: go That's what I feel like they're leaning into right now.
1:39:44
Speaker 14: She dropped a vlog about it. I've been seeing her.
1:39:47
Speaker 14: She was out in the clubs. I think they're leaning
1:39:50
Speaker 14: into that one.
1:39:50
Speaker 2: Blank Twice is still my joint.
1:39:52
Speaker 12: She might be waiting to shoot a music video to it.
1:39:55
Speaker 5: Maybe.
1:39:56
Speaker 26: When you drop with a music video, it makes your
1:39:59
Speaker 26: music go up.
1:40:00
Speaker 9: Oh, did JT ever say anything?
1:40:02
Speaker 14: Not that I've seen.
1:40:03
Speaker 3: That's crazy.
1:40:03
Speaker 10: No?
1:40:04
Speaker 6: What?
1:40:05
Speaker 2: That JT never said nothing.
1:40:07
Speaker 14: I mean, we don't know if they may be behind
1:40:09
Speaker 14: the scenes.
1:40:09
Speaker 9: Not anything publicly.
1:40:11
Speaker 14: I haven't seen anything publicly. And Young Miami will be
1:40:14
Speaker 14: sitting down with Jason Lee today at noon.
1:40:16
Speaker 1: JT might be responding with a record.
1:40:17
Speaker 2: You know what? That would be a dope way to reply.
1:40:19
Speaker 2: That could be true, too.
1:40:20
Speaker 5: That should be the only way to reply.
1:40:21
Speaker 2: A Dear Carisha record would be dope.
1:40:23
Speaker 14: Oh, yeah, that would be dope.
1:40:25
Speaker 3: Yeah.
1:40:25
Speaker 2: We'll see.
1:40:26
Speaker 14: Hope the temperament is the same.
1:40:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see.
1:40:28
Speaker 5: Yes.
1:40:29
Speaker 3: All right.
1:40:29
Speaker 14: Now, and other music.
1:40:30
Speaker 3: Maybe we won't.
1:40:32
Speaker 9: Maybe, I don't know.
1:40:34
Speaker 14: In other music news, Drake has been named Apple Music's
1:40:37
Speaker 14: Best Rapper of 2026. So they say, rap life is
1:40:41
Speaker 14: home to hip-hop's heavy hitters and it's vanguard. The songs
1:40:44
Speaker 14: that speak to the moment and define the culture today.
1:40:46
Speaker 14: For so many years, that's been the work of one
1:40:49
Speaker 14: Aubrey Drake Graham and 2026 was no different. The MC
1:40:52
Speaker 14: made his loudest comeback in years with a three-album release,
1:40:55
Speaker 14: weekend-spinning hip-hop, R & B, dance, and a genre-inspiring... gambit
1:41:01
Speaker 14: that landed as a critical and commercial lighting. Iceman did
1:41:05
Speaker 14: the heaviest lifting, commercially becoming the first 2026 rap album
1:41:09
Speaker 14: to cross 2 billion streams and reasserting Drake's rightful claim
1:41:12
Speaker 14: to hip-hop's hit-making throne. I don't think he left the throne.
1:41:16
Speaker 14: I just know he didn't win, but congratulations.
1:41:18
Speaker 1: It was more than one throne, and that's what people
1:41:19
Speaker 1: don't understand.
1:41:20
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
1:41:21
Speaker 1: He lost the rap battle to Kendrick, but Apple got
1:41:25
Speaker 1: it right. I mean, when you think about actual rap
1:41:27
Speaker 1: albums out of all of the rappers that came.
1:41:29
Speaker 14: Out of the show. You are feeling so positive today.
1:41:31
Speaker 2: What are you talking about? It's common sense.
1:41:32
Speaker 5: Can't deny numbers.
1:41:33
Speaker 2: Out of the people that actually put out music.
1:41:35
Speaker 4: Right.
1:41:35
Speaker 5: Can't deny numbers.
1:41:36
Speaker 2: Drake would be the number one rapper.
1:41:37
Speaker 5: And y'all still sound surprised like Drake ain't him.
1:41:39
Speaker 14: When it comes to the last 10 years.
1:41:41
Speaker 5: I'm not surprised at all.
1:41:42
Speaker 14: I am not surprised. I was one of the people, listen, Janis,
1:41:45
Speaker 14: Shut the F Up, Nokia, all those songs. I've been
1:41:48
Speaker 14: playing those songs since then. J.
1:41:49
Speaker 1: Cole came out this year with the fall off. Vince
1:41:52
Speaker 1: Staples dropped. Who else dropped this year?
1:41:54
Speaker 9: T.I. J.
1:41:55
Speaker 5: Cole was this year?
1:41:56
Speaker 20: Oh, T.I.
1:41:56
Speaker 2: Did drop this year.
1:41:57
Speaker 5: Don Toliver.
1:41:58
Speaker 9: I thought J.
1:41:58
Speaker 5: Cole was last year with T.I. Yeah, Don Toliver.
1:42:01
Speaker 2: I mean, Broadway.
1:42:02
Speaker 9: And there's so much music to digest from Drake.
1:42:05
Speaker 26: Like, yo, I literally, literally just heard Eli playing some
1:42:08
Speaker 26: song that I never even heard.
1:42:09
Speaker 12: I'm like, where's that from? He was like, Habib T.
1:42:12
Speaker 9: I'm like, oh, my God.
1:42:12
Speaker 26: There's still so many songs I haven't heard on all
1:42:15
Speaker 26: three of those albums.
1:42:16
Speaker 9: And they hit.
1:42:17
Speaker 5: Yeah.
1:42:18
Speaker 14: Well, I mean, I put those two together because I
1:42:20
Speaker 14: wish we had gotten Drake on the Spin That remix.
1:42:23
Speaker 14: I know he didn't hit Young Miami back.
1:42:25
Speaker 8: But, yeah.
1:42:26
Speaker 11: Damn.
1:42:27
Speaker 6: Yeah.
1:42:27
Speaker 10: Well.
1:42:28
Speaker 14: But that is the latest, guys. You guys get the late... Oh, we.
1:42:31
Speaker 2: Have time for one more.
1:42:32
Speaker 14: We do have time for one more, Lauren.
1:42:35
Speaker 2: We have time for one more. Why don't you... I
1:42:37
Speaker 2: wonder what they doing.
1:42:38
Speaker 10: Oh, my God.
1:42:38
Speaker 12: It was a Diddy birthday today.
1:42:40
Speaker 2: Yo, I was going to say earlier.
1:42:43
Speaker 14: earlier when I was saying to y'all.
1:42:45
Speaker 9: No, this is a real thing. What do you think
1:42:47
Speaker 9: they're going to do?
1:42:48
Speaker 2: What do you think they're going to do?
1:42:49
Speaker 3: I don't know.
1:42:50
Speaker 5: Handles are being blown out.
1:42:51
Speaker 3: No, no, no candles.
1:42:52
Speaker 2: Handles are being blown out.
1:42:53
Speaker 14: So at my old job this morning or yesterday, I
1:42:56
Speaker 14: would have literally been working on that story and would probably... Oh, wow.
1:42:59
Speaker 14: I was going to say that this morning. I'm like,
1:43:00
Speaker 14: I don't know if y'all care, though, so I just
1:43:01
Speaker 14: shut up.
1:43:02
Speaker 2: No.
1:43:02
Speaker 5: His family's probably going.
1:43:04
Speaker 14: To visit him.
1:43:04
Speaker 17: 100%.
1:43:04
Speaker 14: His family's probably going to visit him. There'll probably be, like,
1:43:06
Speaker 14: a special.
1:43:07
Speaker 2: Meal or whatever that means.
1:43:07
Speaker 1: Remember that video they had of Diddy when he was
1:43:10
Speaker 1: singing Happy Birthday and then the guy started screaming in
1:43:12
Speaker 1: the background?
1:43:12
Speaker 21: Yes.
1:43:13
Speaker 2: I mean, it was fake. The guy was screaming in
1:43:14
Speaker 2: the background.
1:43:15
Speaker 3: It was fake.
1:43:16
Speaker 9: It was fake.
1:43:16
Speaker 14: No, but you remember the French Montana one?
1:43:17
Speaker 21: Oh.
1:43:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, when he was laying in the bed and he
1:43:19
Speaker 2: was saying, Happy Birthday. He was like, Happy Birthday. And
1:43:24
Speaker 2: then he looked and then went back to singing it.
1:43:26
Speaker 2: You definitely might.
1:43:27
Speaker 8: Hear that in jail.
1:43:28
Speaker 2: Somebody be singing him happy birthday and then.
1:43:29
Speaker 9: A man screaming in the background.
1:43:31
Speaker 3: All right.
1:43:31
Speaker 9: Y'all let you do it one time. Did he show birthday?
1:43:35
Speaker 5: You always just go a little too far. Just stop
1:43:37
Speaker 5: right there.
1:43:38
Speaker 14: It's y'all two.
1:43:39
Speaker 2: Just stop right there.
1:43:41
Speaker 14: And I be in the middle.
1:43:42

1:45:06
Speaker 1: it gives it gives America a sense of optimism.

Speaker 3: Yes.
1:45:08
Speaker 1: You know, but now it's time for Democrats to do
1:45:11
Speaker 1: the work because just because you won an election last
1:45:13
Speaker 1: night does not mean that the people have trust in you.
1:45:15
Speaker 2: That was just a rebuke of 10 years of MAGA. Right.
1:45:19
Speaker 3: That's it.
1:45:19
Speaker 5: That's right. And what you got this weekend?

1:46:36
Speaker 1: November 13th, we are going to be broadcasting live from
1:46:39
Speaker 1: South Carolina State University. It's just for South Carolina State

1:46:55
Speaker 7: All right.
1:46:55
Speaker 5: Well, hit us with a positive note, please.
1:46:57
Speaker 1: The positive note, man, the biggest skill you can develop
1:46:59
Speaker 1: is the ability to reset fast, okay? If you're talking
1:47:02
Speaker 1: to somebody and it's a bad conversation, move on, okay?
1:47:05
Speaker 1: If you have a bad day, start fresh tomorrow. If
1:47:07
Speaker 1: you miss the workout, don't worry about it. You just
1:47:09
Speaker 1: get to it the next day. Poor decision, you learn
1:47:11
Speaker 1: from it and you adjust. You can't control what happens
1:47:14
Speaker 1: to you, but you control how long you let it
1:47:16
Speaker 1: affect you.
1:47:16
Speaker 2: Have a great day.
1:47:17
Speaker 21: Peace.
