- 3:36Speaker 1: towards you when you hug that wood. What's on your mind?
- 3:39Speaker 1: You don't. It's very grounding, you know. It brings you
- 3:42Speaker 1: back to center in a real, real way. You go

- 4:03Speaker 1: and and I meditate and I do breathing exercises for
- 4:06Speaker 1: however longer I choose to be out there, and I
- 4:09Speaker 1: feel myself coming back to center. Then then I fall

- 5:02Speaker 1: DJB that's Angela Gye. We got the wood Hugger, Breakfast
- 5:06Speaker 1: Luga is the breakfast Clogal Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,
- 5:11Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We all the breakfast club.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Let's getting some front page news where we're starting you. Well,
- 5:20Speaker 1: let's start with the elections yesterday. As you know, voters
- 5:22Speaker 1: have been facing long lines, fewer in person polling locations
- 5:25Speaker 1: because of safety protocols due to the coronavirus pandemic. One
- 5:30Speaker 1: place people were keeping an eye on was Kentucky, and
- 5:33Speaker 1: there were some issues. They said. Some voters were stuck
- 5:36Speaker 1: in Louisville waiting to park their cars outside the Kentucky
- 5:39Speaker 1: Exposition Center, causing them to miss a deadline and get
- 5:42Speaker 1: in line when the post closed at six pm. The
- 5:45Speaker 1: center was the only site opened in Louisville and Jefferson
- 5:48Speaker 1: County because of coronavirus, so video showed voters locked outside.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Some of them were pounding on the glass windows hoping
- 5:54Speaker 1: to be let in. Shortly after that, they did manage
- 5:57Speaker 1: to secure a court order that opened the doors and
- 5:59Speaker 1: extended the poll hours to six thirty pm so that
- 6:02Speaker 1: people could actually have access to go inside and vote.
- 6:05Speaker 1: So Kentucky is one of several states had also expanded
- 6:08Speaker 1: access to abs and see voting. Officials expected a record
- 6:11Speaker 1: turnout of over one million people voting in the primary,
- 6:14Speaker 1: so they won't have full results until June thirtieth. Because
- 6:19Speaker 1: of all of that, Alexandria Casier Cortez Nagle say, the
- 6:24Speaker 1: fact that social media was speaking on what was happening
- 6:27Speaker 1: in Kentucky more than mainstream media is next to me,
- 6:30Speaker 1: like the blatant voter suppression in a place that Mitch
- 6:32Speaker 1: McConnell represents, the same Mitch McConnell that is blocked two
- 6:35Speaker 1: election security bills. THEMS need to be honest about how
- 6:39Speaker 1: tough it's going to be to win in November because
- 6:41Speaker 1: of voter suppression, because of voter depression, people not being
- 6:45Speaker 1: roughed by Biden, and possible Russian interference, like like, like
- 6:50Speaker 1: John Stuart said yesterday when he was here, based off
- 6:52Speaker 1: that line in his movie Irresistible, you can't win a
- 6:54Speaker 1: battle if you're not honest about what you're up against. Period.
- 6:58Speaker 1: All Right. And Alexandria Jacio Cortez, they were three Democratic
- 7:02Speaker 1: primary challenges for her in New York and she did
- 7:05Speaker 1: blow everybody out. So she's still in. So we'll see
- 7:08Speaker 1: what happens. Drop on a clues bomb for AOC, dammit,
- 7:12Speaker 1: one of the good ones. Goodwhile Now, meanwhile, Donald Trump
- 7:18Speaker 1: was talking about voter suppression. Yes, well, he was talking
- 7:21Speaker 1: about what he thinks will be happening with the Democrats
- 7:23Speaker 1: he believes will be rigging the election. Here's what he
- 7:27Speaker 1: had to say yesterday, the Democrats are also trying to
- 7:30Speaker 1: rig the election by sending out tens of millions of
- 7:34Speaker 1: mail in ballots, using the China virus as the excuse
- 7:39Speaker 1: for allowing people not to go to the poll. I
- 7:44Speaker 1: was watching the CNN last night and Don Lemon was
- 7:47Speaker 1: showing this a segment about how Donald Trump has done
- 7:51Speaker 1: absentee ballots before, Mike Pence, his wife, Jared Cushing, like
- 7:55Speaker 1: so many people into the administration. William Bardy all did
- 7:58Speaker 1: mail in ballots before. So I don't know what the
- 7:59Speaker 1: problem him is now. Yeah, ironically enough, he was in
- 8:03Speaker 1: Arizona where he was speaking yesterday, where, by the way,
- 8:06Speaker 1: there's been a huge spike in coronavirus cases, and Arizona,
- 8:10Speaker 1: the county that he was in, actually has already voted
- 8:12Speaker 1: by mail and has done that for years. The vast
- 8:14Speaker 1: majority of vote is there actually have for years already
- 8:17Speaker 1: voted by mail. So this is nothing new, all right.
- 8:22Speaker 1: In addition to that, Donald Trump talked about monuments coming down.
- 8:25Speaker 1: But the radical left, they hate our history, they hate
- 8:29Speaker 1: our values, and they hate everything we prize as Americas
- 8:33Speaker 1: that we're right because our country didn't grow great with them.
- 8:39Speaker 1: It grew great with you and your thought process and
- 8:43Speaker 1: your ideology. The left wing mob is trying to demolish
- 8:47Speaker 1: our heritage so they could replace it with a new
- 8:49Speaker 1: repressive regime that they alone control. He's yes, yes we
- 8:56Speaker 1: hate racism, Yes we hate slavery, Yes we hate aggregation.
- 8:59Speaker 1: Your history is sysm, It's biggertree is hate. And let's
- 9:01Speaker 1: be clear, we built this country black people. If you
- 9:04Speaker 1: had two hundred and sixty years of of of of
- 9:06Speaker 1: free labor, labor, okay, if you had twenty sixty years
- 9:10Speaker 1: of free label and you and you didn't get get
- 9:13Speaker 1: anything for it, you gave twenty to sixty years of
- 9:15Speaker 1: free label and you didn't get anything for it, you
- 9:17Speaker 1: would hate the history of this country as well. And
- 9:19Speaker 1: for him to say that we want to replace it
- 9:20Speaker 1: with another oppressive regime, what's more opressive to white supremacy?
- 9:26Speaker 1: What's that? So? Jesus? All right? Well, love manze Layer
- 9:31Speaker 1: and that is your front page news. Goodness great hey,
- 9:34Speaker 1: And that that John C. Calhoun statue is coming down
- 9:37Speaker 1: in Charleston, South Carolina right now at eight four three,
- 9:40Speaker 1: drop on the clues bombs for the eight forty three
- 9:41Speaker 1: They voted on it yesterday and they are taking it

- 11:48Speaker 1: How y'all door? Hey, what's up? Broetr king? How you doing?
- 11:55Speaker 1: I was calling because the interview that you had yesterday
- 11:59Speaker 1: yesterday would John Stewart, Honestly, I think it was one
- 12:01Speaker 1: of the best interviews that you have like had at
- 12:05Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club period. From the range of topics that
- 12:09Speaker 1: you discussed, just the discord between two people is something
- 12:13Speaker 1: that we need to see, right, that was like one
- 12:15Speaker 1: of the best interviews that you all have ever had.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Appreciate that. Um, something Charlomagne that you said during that
- 12:23Speaker 1: interview was that something that the Democrats have a problem
- 12:27Speaker 1: with doing is our message messaging and getting that he
- 12:30Speaker 1: had getting that across to the people. And like defunded police, right,
- 12:33Speaker 1: it's a triggering it's a triggering triggering word. What do
- 12:37Speaker 1: y'all think about saying like refund the people into the
- 12:41Speaker 1: defunded police because we're asking for a reinvestment in our communities. Correct,
- 12:45Speaker 1: And maybe that helped get people in the door a
- 12:48Speaker 1: little bit safer, But what do y'all think about that
- 12:53Speaker 1: It has to do with the police department so I think,
- 12:58Speaker 1: you know, that is really the focal point of the
- 13:00Speaker 1: financing for the police departments. I was thinking that slogan
- 13:03Speaker 1: gets to people inside the door, and then when you
- 13:06Speaker 1: when you explain to them how you refunded people. Now
- 13:09Speaker 1: you talk about how we're guy investing funds from police
- 13:12Speaker 1: department putting that into mental health services, so on and
- 13:15Speaker 1: so forth. Yeah. I read a good article that Michael
- 13:19Speaker 1: Harriot wrote about Tim Scott, and you know, he was
- 13:23Speaker 1: saying that he likes the Republican police reform bill a
- 13:26Speaker 1: little bit better than Democratic bill. But it's actually the
- 13:29Speaker 1: same bill, but tim Scott just has tim Scott just
- 13:32Speaker 1: has a different messaging. You know, he's still yeah, yeah,
- 13:38Speaker 1: so he's still talking about the funding the police, he's
- 13:40Speaker 1: just messaging it in a different way. Yeah. So maybe
- 13:43Speaker 1: y'all should have like the prison abolitionists like come and
- 13:46Speaker 1: like and a police abolitionist come and explain what it is,
- 13:50Speaker 1: like same dialogue that you guys are having, and really
- 13:52Speaker 1: like let people know, like, hey, it's not gonna be lawlessness.
- 13:56Speaker 1: We'll have a system. It's just a reimagining of public
- 13:59Speaker 1: safety and restorative justice in our prison instead of you know,
- 14:03Speaker 1: punishment okay, oh, thank you for checking in. Brother, Get

- 17:42Speaker 1: so we get that way, we can see if we
- 17:43Speaker 1: could find a place that's doing the free COVID testing
- 17:45Speaker 1: for you in Akron. Can we do that? I think
- 17:48Speaker 1: Lebron James doing them to day at four o'clock. I
- 17:51Speaker 1: love you, though, get it off. By the way, I
- 17:53Speaker 1: don't remember John Stuart talking about his damn shirt. I
- 17:55Speaker 1: remember John Stuard and he was from a single mother,
- 17:57Speaker 1: and he had a bunch of men working for him.
- 17:59Speaker 1: How you remember I need a man like a fish
- 18:02Speaker 1: needs a bicycle. Yeah. What that got to do with
- 18:05Speaker 1: me though? Nothing, I don't know. But he was saying
- 18:07Speaker 1: that his mom more than that T shirt. Yeah, and
- 18:10Speaker 1: that's the shirt she's talking about. Get it off your chest.
- 18:13Speaker 1: Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. We
- 18:15Speaker 1: got rumors on the way, y, Yes, let's talk about
- 18:17Speaker 1: Bubba Wallace now. He is responding to the FBI's findings
- 18:22Speaker 1: that that noose in his garage was there since twenty nineteen.
- 18:26Speaker 1: It was it that long. He didn't see it. I'll
- 18:28Speaker 1: tell you what what's going on. Oh my goodness, all right,
- 18:31Speaker 1: we'll talk about that. Next is the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
- 18:34Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is cej Envy Angela yee,
- 18:41Speaker 1: Charlo Migne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's
- 18:44Speaker 1: get to the rumors. Let's talk Dio Hugely split, Oh Gosport, guys,
- 18:54Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Well, we told you about d L Hugely.
- 18:57Speaker 1: He was performing in Nashville and he laps on stage.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Later on he revealed that he did have coronavirus. He
- 19:03Speaker 1: got tested. Well, now his son Kyle Hugely has revealed
- 19:07Speaker 1: that he also has tested positive for COVID nineteen. Listen
- 19:10Speaker 1: to this. I regret to inform everybody that I have
- 19:15Speaker 1: tested positive for COVID. I'm asymptomatic so far, which is good. Um,
- 19:19Speaker 1: so as my dad, you know, we're both asymptomatic. My
- 19:22Speaker 1: mother tested twice, both times came back negative. So that's good.
- 19:27Speaker 1: All right, Well it makes sense. I mean, as you know,
- 19:29Speaker 1: they were together, so and he does work with him,
- 19:32Speaker 1: so that's the risk that's associated with that. Salute to
- 19:36Speaker 1: the Hugely men. That sucks, but glad y'all brothers are
- 19:38Speaker 1: asymptomatic and wishing y'all a speedy recovery. The yellow be
- 19:42Speaker 1: back on his feet soon. Yeah, and I wonder what
- 19:44Speaker 1: you said, how long did he have it? Did he
- 19:46Speaker 1: have it for seven days already or did he get
- 19:48Speaker 1: it a day ago? Like how long? You know? I'm
- 19:50Speaker 1: always curious, That's what I was saying. It's just like,
- 19:53Speaker 1: what if you've had coronavirus for twelve days already, do
- 19:56Speaker 1: you still have to quarantine for another fourteen? And you
- 19:59Speaker 1: only got a quarantine for too. I don't know. All
- 20:01Speaker 1: I know is DL Hugli will be back out there
- 20:03Speaker 1: spreading the last and the information soon, and we much
- 20:06Speaker 1: rather that than him out of here spreading coronavirus. Yeah.
- 20:09Speaker 1: And I don't think there's any way to know exactly
- 20:12Speaker 1: when you got it either, And for some people that
- 20:14Speaker 1: last longer than others. Some people have it for like
- 20:16Speaker 1: a couple of months, you know, so it's hard to say.
- 20:20Speaker 1: All right, now, Eminem has brought Rice to five nine
- 20:24Speaker 1: on and he's going to be actually the director of
- 20:26Speaker 1: Community Engagement and Social Justice Initiatives for the Marshall Mathers Foundation.
- 20:31Speaker 1: Eminem said, I'm super excited about not just donating money
- 20:34Speaker 1: but launching new initiatives. My goals are simple providing privilege
- 20:38Speaker 1: for the underprivileged, and rose to five nine said, I'm
- 20:41Speaker 1: honored to team up with Eminem to do so Marshall
- 20:44Speaker 1: Mathers Foundation, So that's dope. They're going to be reaching
- 20:47Speaker 1: new goals together. They actually donated to the Change for
- 20:51Speaker 1: Change initiative that we do in the first year to
- 20:54Speaker 1: the Justice League. How much did he donate? Two hundred
- 20:57Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars? Right, yeah, two it I thought
- 21:04Speaker 1: no apate sizable donation absolutely all right. Bill Cosby has
- 21:15Speaker 1: been granted an appeal in his sex assault conviction, and
- 21:18Speaker 1: so what that means is the court will look into
- 21:21Speaker 1: cosby challenging testimony from women who accused him of applying
- 21:25Speaker 1: them with quails before sexually assaulting them. Judges will determine
- 21:29Speaker 1: whether the jury should have heard from the women, many
- 21:31Speaker 1: of whom Bill Cosby said it was more than fifteen
- 21:34Speaker 1: years ago and the women's testimony wasn't the same as
- 21:37Speaker 1: the sexual misconduct that he was convicted of, and that
- 21:39Speaker 1: he was never criminally charged in those instances. So the
- 21:42Speaker 1: court has agreed that he can object to the County
- 21:46Speaker 1: district attorneys going back on what he said, but which
- 21:49Speaker 1: was a promise to Cosby that he wouldn't be prosecuted
- 21:51Speaker 1: if he spoke truthfully in a deposition. If you remember
- 21:54Speaker 1: there was a deposition. It was supposed to be sealed.
- 21:56Speaker 1: He spoke truthfully, but they did reveal some of that. Now,
- 22:00Speaker 1: as he's serving this three to ten years sentence, he'll
- 22:03Speaker 1: be able to have an appeal. I'm shocked Bill Colby
- 22:07Speaker 1: is still alive. I'm not gonna lie to you. I
- 22:10Speaker 1: didn't think. I didn't think he would he would last
- 22:12Speaker 1: in prison. I really didn't. I mean, he's eighty something
- 22:15Speaker 1: years old, legally blind, like, I didn't think he would last.
- 22:18Speaker 1: Be honest with you, I'm shocked. Well, Bill Cosby's spokesman said,
- 22:22Speaker 1: as we have all stated, the false conviction of Bill
- 22:25Speaker 1: Cosby is so much bigger than him. It's about the
- 22:27Speaker 1: destruction of all black people and people of color in America.
- 22:32Speaker 1: All Right, I don't know about that. I wouldn't go
- 22:35Speaker 1: that far, but okay, yeah, I don't know about that.
- 22:39Speaker 1: Um Now, Bubba Wallace, we've been talking about this whole
- 22:42Speaker 1: situation with the news that was found in the garage
- 22:45Speaker 1: at Nascar his garage. Well, according to the FBI, they
- 22:50Speaker 1: are saying that that news was present since twenty nineteen.
- 22:53Speaker 1: They said no federal charges would be pursued. Nobody could
- 22:56Speaker 1: have known mister Wallace would be assigned to garage number four.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Last week the FBI, I learned the garage numberfore where
- 23:01Speaker 1: it was found, where it was found was assigned to
- 23:04Speaker 1: Bubba Wallace last week. The news found in that garage
- 23:06Speaker 1: was in that garage as early as October twenty nineteen.
- 23:10Speaker 1: So I saw a lot of people were calling him, uh,
- 23:13Speaker 1: but we're calling Bubba Wallace Bubba Smilette as far as
- 23:16Speaker 1: referring to him as Jesse Smillette with the new situation.
- 23:20Speaker 1: And here is what Bubba Wallace has to say about
- 23:23Speaker 1: the FBI investigation. I've been racing all my life. We've
- 23:26Speaker 1: raced out of hundreds of garages that never had garage
- 23:31Speaker 1: pools like that. So people that want to call a
- 23:33Speaker 1: garage pool and put out old videos and photos of
- 23:36Speaker 1: of of knots being um in h and there as
- 23:41Speaker 1: their evidence go ahead. But from the evidence that we have,
- 23:44Speaker 1: it's a straight up noose. My thing is how racist
- 23:47Speaker 1: is NASCAR that nobody noticed the noose. Ain't that kind
- 23:51Speaker 1: of weird? Yeah? The normal is how normal is the
- 23:55Speaker 1: news that it was up there so long and nobody
- 23:58Speaker 1: noticed that, whether whether or not it was targeted that bubble,
- 24:01Speaker 1: But that a noose is just decoration at NASCAR. I
- 24:04Speaker 1: guess like you just just like what you supposed to
- 24:07Speaker 1: do when you get under the news, supposed to kiss Christmas,
- 24:12Speaker 1: Christmas miste. It's a new the NASCAR mistletoe. When when
- 24:18Speaker 1: two races get up under that news, they posed to
- 24:20Speaker 1: kiss the hell And people were trying to say it
- 24:22Speaker 1: was a garage pull, and like Bubba Wilds just said,
- 24:25Speaker 1: it's not a garage pull. Everybody's been calling it a noose.
- 24:28Speaker 1: The FBI called it a noose. It is what it is.
- 24:31Speaker 1: So whether it was or whatever, it was a noose.
- 24:36Speaker 1: Even if it was a garage pool, Why is the
- 24:38Speaker 1: garage pool tied in the form of a noose? And
- 24:41Speaker 1: why is that? Okay, that's how you know it ain't
- 24:44Speaker 1: no black people at NASCAR, because you're talking about people
- 24:46Speaker 1: having blind spots. People walk by that thing over and
- 24:50Speaker 1: over and over again and never thought nothing of it.
- 24:53Speaker 1: It takes the black man to be like, hey, that's
- 24:55Speaker 1: the news. That's crazy. That's why diversity matters. All right,
- 25:00Speaker 1: Well I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report.
- 25:03Speaker 1: All right, thank you, miss Yee. Then when we come back,
- 25:06Speaker 1: we got front page news. What we're talking about easy, yes,
- 25:08Speaker 1: and we are going to be talking about Donald Trump.
- 25:11Speaker 1: He gave a speech and Arizona yesterday will tell you
- 25:14Speaker 1: some of the things that he had to say. All right,
- 25:16Speaker 1: we'll get into that next keeping lot. This to Breakfast club.
- 25:18Speaker 1: Good morning across the country. I want to get everybody
- 25:20Speaker 1: is dj enjy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the car, that's the car, Charlomagne,
- 25:25Speaker 1: the guy all the breakfast car? Hell are you calling
- 25:29Speaker 1: me a car? The hell are you thinking about this morning?
- 25:30Speaker 1: You want to ride me? The movie? Is that somebody
- 25:33Speaker 1: just test? Somebody just texted me about it. If I
- 25:36Speaker 1: was having the car show and when I read it,
- 25:38Speaker 1: it's at Charlemagne and I looked in to say car,
- 25:40Speaker 1: So I said to Charlomagne in the car, So why
- 25:42Speaker 1: don't you say Carlmagne? Yeah, the way in the car,
- 25:46Speaker 1: that's just the way it kind of call what i'd
- 25:47Speaker 1: be to you, sir, No, tell me you'll kind of
- 25:48Speaker 1: call without be to you. Let me think, let me think.
- 25:52Speaker 1: I think you would be a Cadillac Black escalated. That's
- 25:58Speaker 1: that's what I think. Oh classics. It was nice, okay,
- 26:03Speaker 1: smooth ride, like how you feel about like how you
- 26:07Speaker 1: feel about me? Envy my cones. Anyway, let's get let's
- 26:10Speaker 1: get in some front page saved up for Valentine's Kay, yeah,
- 26:19Speaker 1: I know it's awkward. They're okay, all right? Uh yeah.
- 26:22Speaker 1: And Kentucky voting did happen yesterday in the primaries. A
- 26:27Speaker 1: lot of people were looking to see what would happen
- 26:28Speaker 1: in Kentucky because they reduce the number of polling places
- 26:32Speaker 1: from thirty seven hundred to fewer than two hundred, and
- 26:35Speaker 1: there were just one. There's just one polling place in
- 26:38Speaker 1: each of the state's two largest cities because of a
- 26:41Speaker 1: massive shortage of whole workers. And by the way, I
- 26:43Speaker 1: do want to thank all the people who worked yesterday.
- 26:46Speaker 1: I was. I went and voted yesterday in Brooklyn, and
- 26:49Speaker 1: I did go in and I thanked everybody who was
- 26:51Speaker 1: in there working because I know everybody's there's a lot
- 26:53Speaker 1: going on with coronavirus, so it's nice to see people
- 26:55Speaker 1: putting in at work. And being pleasant to everyone and
- 26:58Speaker 1: making sure they direct people in the right way. So
- 27:01Speaker 1: that led to concerns of a suppressed Black vote, and
- 27:04Speaker 1: a lot of people were talking about that. They said
- 27:06Speaker 1: in Lexington the lines were about an hour long during
- 27:10Speaker 1: midday and they actually had to end up extending voting
- 27:13Speaker 1: as well. In Kentucky because a lot of people couldn't
- 27:16Speaker 1: get in, a judge to extend voting by thirty minutes,
- 27:18Speaker 1: which allowed more than one hundred people who were waiting
- 27:20Speaker 1: outside the Expo Center in Louisville to actually be able
- 27:24Speaker 1: to get in and finish the voting process. Some people
- 27:27Speaker 1: said that it was smooth, though some people said it
- 27:29Speaker 1: only took them ten to fifteen minutes. Other people ended
- 27:31Speaker 1: up waiting over an hour, so a lot of people
- 27:33Speaker 1: were paying attention to what would happened there. In the meantime,
- 27:36Speaker 1: Donald Trump was in Arizona and he actually talked about
- 27:41Speaker 1: how he feels like the Democrats could be rigging the election.
- 27:44Speaker 1: The Democrats are also trying to rig the election by
- 27:47Speaker 1: sending out tens of millions of mail in ballots, using
- 27:52Speaker 1: the China virus as the excuse for allowing people not
- 27:57Speaker 1: to go to the poll. You know, I don't care
- 28:00Speaker 1: what y'all think of Donald Trump. I don't care what
- 28:02Speaker 1: your polls say. Poll said the same thing in twenty sixteen,
- 28:05Speaker 1: and Trump still won. And it's things like that. That's
- 28:08Speaker 1: the reason why voter suppression and what do you think
- 28:11Speaker 1: is going to happen in November. Voter suppression, possible interference
- 28:14Speaker 1: from other countries, voted depression because people aren't entoos about
- 28:17Speaker 1: the candidates, and low voter turnout always favors Republicans. I'm
- 28:20Speaker 1: just trying to figure out why this wasn't a bigger deal.
- 28:22Speaker 1: Yesterday they cut the poll insights in Kentucky, they locked
- 28:25Speaker 1: the He's trying to do. He's distracting you by telling
- 28:28Speaker 1: you Democrats are going to rig the election, and they
- 28:30Speaker 1: are blatantly doing it, like right under your nose. Why
- 28:35Speaker 1: wasn't this all over the news yesterday? I saw more
- 28:37Speaker 1: on social media than anyway. Now, another thing that Donald
- 28:40Speaker 1: Trump talked about during his speech in Phoenix was these
- 28:44Speaker 1: monuments coming down. You know, he has a problem with
- 28:47Speaker 1: targeting statues and monuments that have honored past presidents and
- 28:51Speaker 1: the Confederacy across the country. Here's what he had to say.
- 28:54Speaker 1: But the radical left. They hate our history, they hate
- 28:58Speaker 1: her and hate everything we prize as Americans. That we're right,
- 29:03Speaker 1: yes we do. Our country didn't grow great with them,
- 29:08Speaker 1: it grew great and your thought process and your yes,
- 29:13Speaker 1: the left wing mom is trying to demolish our heritage
- 29:16Speaker 1: so they can replace it with a new repressive regime
- 29:20Speaker 1: that they alone control. I don't consider myself left left
- 29:26Speaker 1: or any direction, but I do hate racism, and yes
- 29:29Speaker 1: I hate slavery, and yes I hate segregation, and I
- 29:31Speaker 1: hate your history of racism and bigotry and your history
- 29:34Speaker 1: of hate. And let's be clear, Black people built this country. Okay,
- 29:37Speaker 1: twenty to sixty years of free labor, all right, let's
- 29:40Speaker 1: let's be clear about that. As a matter of fact,
- 29:42Speaker 1: White people, you should hate the history also, because right now, yeah,
- 29:46Speaker 1: right now, you should be the ones that should be
- 29:48Speaker 1: ashamed of what happened in the past and hate that
- 29:51Speaker 1: history as well. It shouldn't even be just us saying
- 29:53Speaker 1: we hate that history. Yeah, we do hate it, that's right.
- 29:56Speaker 1: I'm surprised, he just says. I'm surprised. He just says
- 29:59Speaker 1: what he wants to say, and he really really, when
- 30:04Speaker 1: a person shows you who they all believed him. Nobody
- 30:08Speaker 1: else believes him. When you call him a racist, that's
- 30:12Speaker 1: a lie. You should see people in my comments. They
- 30:14Speaker 1: definitely believe everything. A lot of people on his side
- 30:17Speaker 1: and a lot of black people on his side, like, yeah, yeah,
- 30:20Speaker 1: I believe anything, all right, gracious. Now, a police officer
- 30:24Speaker 1: involved in in the fatal shooting of Brianna Taylor in Louisville,
- 30:27Speaker 1: Kentucky has been fired. This is more than three months
- 30:31Speaker 1: after Brianna Taylor was killed. Detective Brett Hankinson was informed
- 30:35Speaker 1: in a letter that was signed by the police chief
- 30:37Speaker 1: that his employment with the department is terminated and that
- 30:41Speaker 1: is effective immediately. That letter was dated on June twenty third,
- 30:44Speaker 1: and they did post the letter on Twitter. That's that's
- 30:50Speaker 1: hard that's hardly enough. A man needs to be arrested
- 30:53Speaker 1: and brought up on murder charges. And which individuals this
- 30:56Speaker 1: is this one of the officers that kicked in the door?
- 30:58Speaker 1: Is this the one that signed off for the war? Which?
- 30:59Speaker 1: Which one was this? Do we know that he's one
- 31:02Speaker 1: of the ones that actually shot. Yes, some of the
- 31:05Speaker 1: rounds that he fired was the ones that hit Brianna Taylor.
- 31:09Speaker 1: You know, she was shot eight times. And some of
- 31:11Speaker 1: the rounds went into an apartment next door and endangering
- 31:14Speaker 1: the three lives in that apartment as well. So, according
- 31:17Speaker 1: to the mayor, they did terminate proceedings last week and
- 31:21Speaker 1: they said that he violated standard operating procedure when his
- 31:24Speaker 1: actions displayed an extreme indifference to the value of human
- 31:27Speaker 1: life when he fired ten rounds into Brianna Taylor's apartment. Yeah,
- 31:32Speaker 1: we need definite. I was gonna say, we need the
- 31:35Speaker 1: person that that sign off on the warrant that gave
- 31:37Speaker 1: the wrong address, the person that they had, the guy
- 31:39Speaker 1: in custody that they were looking for ready that still
- 31:41Speaker 1: gave the okay to go into that that that apartment.
- 31:44Speaker 1: We need all of them. All those people were really reckless.
- 31:47Speaker 1: An attorney for Brianna Taylor's family said that this is
- 31:50Speaker 1: just one step, though we're still waiting for the other
- 31:52Speaker 1: officers to be held accountable and for additional charges to
- 31:55Speaker 1: be filed, but it is a step in the right direction. Yeah.
- 31:58Speaker 1: I think once after they buy these police officers and
- 32:01Speaker 1: they don't have that protection of the blue wall anymore,
- 32:05Speaker 1: you know, they should be charged. They should be charged
- 32:07Speaker 1: like anybody else would be charged with the murder that's it. Yeah,
- 32:10Speaker 1: it's crazy. So they do the no knock warrant, which
- 32:12Speaker 1: was an issue right now, right, they do have the
- 32:14Speaker 1: Brianna's Law where they're outlawing the no knock warrants. But
- 32:17Speaker 1: it's crazy that this is something that's still the police officer,
- 32:21Speaker 1: one of them finally just got fired. And mind you,
- 32:24Speaker 1: this is over three months ago that this happened, so
- 32:26Speaker 1: you know, but and I shout out to Tamika Mallory
- 32:29Speaker 1: because she's definitely a person who's been working really closely
- 32:33Speaker 1: with Brianna Taylor's family and with Brianna Taylor's attorneys to
- 32:37Speaker 1: make sure that there is justice. And that's what happens
- 32:39Speaker 1: when you lift your voices and you lift up the
- 32:42Speaker 1: people who have these instances that they want to share
- 32:44Speaker 1: and people may not have known all the details. And
- 32:46Speaker 1: you can see some movement. Now, we just need more
- 32:49Speaker 1: movement and we need to make sure we keep on
- 32:51Speaker 1: following up with these stories. All right. Yeah, they're they're

- 34:23Speaker 1: y'all are using your voices and the way y'all using them,
- 34:25Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So, so it's it's uh,
- 34:27Speaker 1: it means a lot to be on it right now
- 34:29Speaker 1: because I think right now we have a situation where
- 34:33Speaker 1: we are being hit from so many sides and people
- 34:35Speaker 1: don't even realize it. And so our ability to be
- 34:37Speaker 1: able to to to speak out and speak up and
- 34:40Speaker 1: and be true to ourselves and be true to our
- 34:42Speaker 1: history and our culture and our DNA matters. So um
- 34:45Speaker 1: so just needs a lot. Now, break down the Robin
- 34:47Speaker 1: Hood Foundation if you can, because a lot of people
- 34:50Speaker 1: donate to the Robin Hood Foundation and they want to
- 34:52Speaker 1: make sure that their money's going to the place that
- 34:55Speaker 1: they expected to go. So break that down for a
- 34:57Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah. So, so Robin it is actually it's
- 34:59Speaker 1: a thirty two years old and it really started with
- 35:02Speaker 1: a focus on poverties and the founders when they first
- 35:05Speaker 1: started off they said, they like, we think the markets
- 35:07Speaker 1: are going to get hard. This is back in nineteen
- 35:09Speaker 1: eighty eight where they said, but you know who this
- 35:11Speaker 1: is really going to see? Who this is going to
- 35:13Speaker 1: really hit hard. It's people who are already living in poverties.
- 35:16Speaker 1: And so, how exactly can we come up with a
- 35:19Speaker 1: way of finding and supporting good organizations that are doing
- 35:22Speaker 1: really good work to address poverty in every way that
- 35:24Speaker 1: it shows itself. Because you know, one thing you know
- 35:27Speaker 1: believe in is when people say, well, it's poverty about education,
- 35:30Speaker 1: or is it about housing, or it's about health, the answers. Yet,
- 35:34Speaker 1: like you know, for those who experience the poverty, it
- 35:36Speaker 1: shows itself in every way. It shows itself in the
- 35:39Speaker 1: war you drink, It shows itself in the air you breathe,
- 35:42Speaker 1: in the schools you attend, in the way you're police.
- 35:45Speaker 1: It shows itself in every single way. And so the
- 35:48Speaker 1: ability to be able to then focus and say, okay,
- 35:51Speaker 1: how then do we attack this issue with every means
- 35:54Speaker 1: that we have to us it becomes real and I mean,
- 35:56Speaker 1: and I think about you know the fact that even
- 35:58Speaker 1: prior even prior to COVID nineteen and the impact of
- 36:01Speaker 1: COVID nineteen were crazy on our community. But even prior
- 36:04Speaker 1: to that, half of just take New York as an example,
- 36:08Speaker 1: half of all New Yorkers we're in poverty for at
- 36:11Speaker 1: least a year over the past four years. Half to see.
- 36:16Speaker 1: And so when people think this is some isolated thing,
- 36:18Speaker 1: or when people come up with this ridiculous excuse of well,
- 36:21Speaker 1: people in poverty should just work harder or get a job,
- 36:24Speaker 1: how about the fact that twenty three percent of people
- 36:26Speaker 1: who have lost their jobs due to COVID nineteen, we're
- 36:28Speaker 1: living in poverty before COVID nineteen. So this is a
- 36:31Speaker 1: working poor people who are working in some cases multiple
- 36:34Speaker 1: jobs and still and still not above the poverty line.
- 36:38Speaker 1: And so really the way we try to attack it is,
- 36:41Speaker 1: you know, not just through philanthropy. And you know, we're
- 36:43Speaker 1: one of the largest foundations in the country, one of
- 36:46Speaker 1: the largest poverty finding organizations in the country. When it
- 36:48Speaker 1: comes to after dollars of giving out, we work with
- 36:50Speaker 1: over three hundred organizations in New York City alone or
- 36:53Speaker 1: community organizations. But at the same time and also understanding that,
- 36:57Speaker 1: you know, we're dealing with systems that have to be
- 37:00Speaker 1: completely upended. Um, you know, there's actually a quote on
- 37:04Speaker 1: my desk from doctor King, and it says, uh, philanthropy
- 37:08Speaker 1: is commendable, but the philanthropist can never forget the economic
- 37:11Speaker 1: of justice to make philanthrothy necessary. And that's just how
- 37:14Speaker 1: of course work we got. We have to dismantle this
- 37:17Speaker 1: mechanism of white supremacy and systemic racism and and and
- 37:22Speaker 1: and and and it's that's why I really appreciate what
- 37:25Speaker 1: you're doing. Man Um. You know, I got introduced to
- 37:27Speaker 1: west somebody John Stikes actually say you have to meet Westmore.
- 37:31Speaker 1: He could be president of the United States of America,
- 37:34Speaker 1: wanting John, John's my god, John's my god. But but
- 37:39Speaker 1: but I'm telling you, but but for Charlot and You're right,
- 37:41Speaker 1: people like we have to understand that. And this is
- 37:44Speaker 1: what gets back to me about about even when we're
- 37:46Speaker 1: talking about every aspect but takes take policing for example,
- 37:50Speaker 1: I'm not interested in having a good apple bad apple
- 37:52Speaker 1: conversation about police. I'm not because we're talking about systems.
- 37:57Speaker 1: And as long as we understand that, as long as
- 38:00Speaker 1: we understand the fact that there are structural elements that
- 38:03Speaker 1: have to be taken out, then I think then we're
- 38:05Speaker 1: having a real conversation and people look at and you know,
- 38:08Speaker 1: you talk about this element of race, and one of
- 38:10Speaker 1: the frustrating things I think people fall into this conversation
- 38:13Speaker 1: about race, Like race and racism is an individual act,
- 38:16Speaker 1: right if I don't say the N words, or I
- 38:20Speaker 1: don't wear a hood, so therefore I'm not racist. Racism
- 38:23Speaker 1: is a system. It's a system that allows It's a
- 38:27Speaker 1: system that allows for a black college graduate to have
- 38:31Speaker 1: the same earning power and earning potential as a white
- 38:34Speaker 1: high school drop out. That's a fact, that data, that
- 38:37Speaker 1: is statistics. It's the fact that allows for a black
- 38:40Speaker 1: woman who has breast cancer to have a forty two
- 38:43Speaker 1: percent higher likely higher probability of dying from breast cancer
- 38:47Speaker 1: than a white woman. That is a fact, that's data.
- 38:50Speaker 1: And so racism isn't an individual act. And I think
- 38:53Speaker 1: when people just personalize it like that, that's where we
- 38:56Speaker 1: run into troubles. It's a system that is when builds
- 39:00Speaker 1: and based in and the only way we're then going
- 39:02Speaker 1: to be too upended is to be as deliberate about
- 39:05Speaker 1: the deconstruction of it as our country has been about
- 39:08Speaker 1: the construction of it. Right, Like you talk about the
- 39:11Speaker 1: police system in your new book. And it's interesting because
- 39:13Speaker 1: the police officer could go and want to be a
- 39:16Speaker 1: great police officer and have all the right intentions for
- 39:19Speaker 1: joining the police force, but at the end of the day,
- 39:21Speaker 1: you are working within a system that is just not
- 39:24Speaker 1: put together right right now, that's exactly right. And if
- 39:29Speaker 1: you if you take a look at just at just
- 39:31Speaker 1: Freddy Gray's life and so and so. First thing I'll
- 39:35Speaker 1: add a good context where Freddy Gray furthers who might
- 39:38Speaker 1: not remember, um was it was a twenty five year
- 39:41Speaker 1: old African American man who in Baltimore City h and
- 39:45Speaker 1: by the way, Charlemagne Baltimore does have the best accents
- 39:48Speaker 1: around you are correct quests. But but it was a
- 39:57Speaker 1: twenty five year old African American man in Baltimore who
- 40:01Speaker 1: actually he made eye contact with police and who ran.
- 40:04Speaker 1: Now let me be clear about that. He made eye
- 40:07Speaker 1: contact with police. That's important because that's only something that's
- 40:11Speaker 1: probable caused in certain neighborhoods, in so called high crime neighborhoods,
- 40:15Speaker 1: if you run from the police, that's all you have
- 40:18Speaker 1: to do to be in the law. And so they
- 40:20Speaker 1: chased him, and they can chase you entertain you simply
- 40:22Speaker 1: by making eye contact in a certain neighborhood, right, And
- 40:26Speaker 1: so he's a young man who made eye contact the police.
- 40:28Speaker 1: He ran, he was arrested. An hour after he was arrested,
- 40:32Speaker 1: he was in a coma. A week after he was
- 40:34Speaker 1: placed in a coma, he died. And so there's two
- 40:38Speaker 1: weeks of protests from Baltimore of people demanding a town
- 40:41Speaker 1: of billion and actions saying we need to know what's
- 40:42Speaker 1: going on. And then there are all peopul protests until
- 40:46Speaker 1: one night, it was actually the night of this funeral,
- 40:48Speaker 1: the night of his home going, that that night wasn't
- 40:51Speaker 1: as people. And then when Baltimore was caused in the
- 40:55Speaker 1: state of emergency, National Guard was called in and that
- 40:59Speaker 1: was the upright that took place around the death of
- 41:02Speaker 1: Freddy Gray. But it's important to you know, but you
- 41:05Speaker 1: bring up a really important point because you know, when
- 41:08Speaker 1: we're talking about policing in in that scenario, policing in
- 41:11Speaker 1: that person, stand the fact that they had legal jurisdictions
- 41:15Speaker 1: to shade Freddie for making eye contacts because he happened
- 41:19Speaker 1: to live in a quone unquote high crime area. That's
- 41:22Speaker 1: not a good apple bad apple conversation. That's a system.
- 41:26Speaker 1: That's a law. The fact that even when everything happened,
- 41:29Speaker 1: the fact that that years after this all happened, you know.
- 41:32Speaker 1: And if you look at the two years in Baltimore
- 41:34Speaker 1: alone before Freddie Gray for Baltimore, we also know the
- 41:38Speaker 1: names Chris Brown and Anthony Henderson and Tyrone West, all
- 41:43Speaker 1: people who were in similar situations as Freddie Gray, who
- 41:46Speaker 1: just in the two years prior to Freddie Gray all
- 41:48Speaker 1: died at the hands and police or owned police custody.
- 41:51Speaker 1: And we also know this. If you take all those names,
- 41:54Speaker 1: Anthony Annison, Chris Brown, Tyrone West, Freddie Gray, not a
- 41:58Speaker 1: single person has been convicted of a crime. So we
- 42:01Speaker 1: just have live loss and no accountability for it. That
- 42:06Speaker 1: becomes that's not about the individual player alone. That's just
- 42:10Speaker 1: system that we've got to address. All Right, we got
- 42:13Speaker 1: more with Westmore when we come back, don't move. It's
- 42:15Speaker 1: the breakfast Club, Go Morning. Nobody is DJ Envy Angela Yee.
- 42:19Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. We're still
- 42:22Speaker 1: kicking it with CEO of Robin Hood Foundation Westmore. Now, Charlemagne,
- 42:27Speaker 1: what do we do to change the system of policing?
- 42:30Speaker 1: Because I'm watching them do all these symbolic things like
- 42:33Speaker 1: cancel cops and cancel live PD and take police officers
- 42:37Speaker 1: out of video games. And I'm like, look, I'm all
- 42:40Speaker 1: for defunding the police. I'm not for abolishing the police. No,
- 42:45Speaker 1: I'm in the same boat. I'm not for abolishing the
- 42:49Speaker 1: police either. But I do know what I'm what I'm
- 42:52Speaker 1: for abolishing is I'm for abolishing police brutality. I'm for
- 42:56Speaker 1: abolishing racial profile. I'm for abolishing the hyper military nation
- 43:00Speaker 1: of police. And why we have police that are basically
- 43:02Speaker 1: dressed up a stormtroopers and are using the same equipment
- 43:05Speaker 1: that I use an Afghanistan? And why we have why
- 43:07Speaker 1: we have police for using the same gear that I
- 43:10Speaker 1: was using at a time of war, And that's not
- 43:13Speaker 1: the job of the police, right The job of the
- 43:15Speaker 1: military was actually to go out and actively use offensive
- 43:19Speaker 1: measures to fight in win our nation's wars. The job
- 43:22Speaker 1: of police is to protect and to serve. It's a
- 43:25Speaker 1: different mission. So why we're using the same mechanics in
- 43:27Speaker 1: the same machinery for a different mission does not make
- 43:30Speaker 1: sense to me, you know, and I think you know
- 43:32Speaker 1: to your point, I think your absolutely right. Flom where
- 43:34Speaker 1: it's it's every budget is a moral document. If any
- 43:38Speaker 1: of you right now you show me how you spend
- 43:40Speaker 1: your money every month, I could probably make making a
- 43:43Speaker 1: pretty educated guess as to what you find to be important.
- 43:46Speaker 1: So it's in about the fact in New York City,
- 43:49Speaker 1: you know, for for every dollar that we spend on NYPD,
- 43:52Speaker 1: in New York City, use Development gets eleven cents for
- 43:56Speaker 1: every dollar that the NYPD gets the help and and
- 44:00Speaker 1: mental hygiene gets thirty one cents. In Baltimore City right now,
- 44:04Speaker 1: for our health department, they get about a forty one
- 44:07Speaker 1: about a forty one million dollars budget in Baltimore City
- 44:11Speaker 1: right the Police Department of Baltimore City it's five hundred
- 44:15Speaker 1: and nine millions. So you can't talk to me about
- 44:17Speaker 1: where prioritization lie. And the fact that actually what's happening
- 44:21Speaker 1: is we're having the police department take on a collection
- 44:24Speaker 1: of other things that they should not be responsible for,
- 44:27Speaker 1: and then we end up putting a lot more money
- 44:29Speaker 1: into the back end because we're not putting money into
- 44:32Speaker 1: the friends end bumping in this country right now, child
- 44:35Speaker 1: poverty cost this country over a trillion dollars a year.
- 44:39Speaker 1: But instead we think about budgetary allocations, and we just
- 44:43Speaker 1: continue giving more assets in capital to Connecticut military and
- 44:47Speaker 1: police functions. It doesn't make sense. It is shortsighted, and
- 44:50Speaker 1: it's something when we're talking about policing reform, we have
- 44:53Speaker 1: to deal to things like structures, like the elimination of
- 44:56Speaker 1: no knock warrants, the elimination of chokeholds. All those things
- 44:58Speaker 1: are real. All those things are importance. What it is
- 45:01Speaker 1: to your point shown And it's also about how are
- 45:03Speaker 1: we talking about budgeting and how it's budgeting the reflecting
- 45:06Speaker 1: our cartization and what we're hoping for through the community.
- 45:09Speaker 1: I mean, ask your question, but how do we see that?
- 45:11Speaker 1: Because you know, my whole thing with the police department
- 45:14Speaker 1: and where all this money is going. We never see
- 45:16Speaker 1: where the money is going. That's right, and and you
- 45:18Speaker 1: know it's crazy about it. It's your money. I mean
- 45:21Speaker 1: like this right, this is like some shadow shadow operations. Yes, money,
- 45:28Speaker 1: absolutely so. So the idea of being able to add transparency.
- 45:32Speaker 1: And when I say transparency, to your point, it's not
- 45:34Speaker 1: just saying, Okay, we're gonna give five hundred nine million
- 45:37Speaker 1: dollars to the Baltimore City Police Department. It's I want
- 45:39Speaker 1: to see the line items. Yes, exactly where that money.
- 45:43Speaker 1: I want to see the toilet paper that you're buying
- 45:45Speaker 1: for the precincts. I want to see all that. I
- 45:47Speaker 1: want to see where the money is going. You can't
- 45:49Speaker 1: just say you're spending dollars. Yes, it's public dollars. And
- 45:53Speaker 1: there is no reason why there shouldn't be a public
- 45:55Speaker 1: accountability for public dollars. And aside from the third part
- 46:01Speaker 1: of that is also accountability. Right when these police officers
- 46:04Speaker 1: commit crimes against civilians, they should be held accountable for
- 46:08Speaker 1: them and they haven't been. In like to your point,
- 46:09Speaker 1: in Baltimore, with the numerous cases that you can bring up,
- 46:13Speaker 1: there's no firing there, there's no accountability, there's no jail time,
- 46:19Speaker 1: there's no charges. So do you feel like that's changing
- 46:22Speaker 1: now as things are being brought to light, do you
- 46:24Speaker 1: feel at least if finally, there will be some legislation.
- 46:29Speaker 1: I'm very hopeful because we are watching things that are
- 46:33Speaker 1: being proposed, not just on local levels but also on
- 46:36Speaker 1: the flederal level. We're looking at things like the pushback
- 46:38Speaker 1: of qualified immunity, and so qualified immunity is the idea
- 46:41Speaker 1: that there's a certain level of immunity that that law
- 46:43Speaker 1: enforcement had that most other individuals don't have. Right, there's
- 46:47Speaker 1: this level of this introduction of civilian review board and
- 46:50Speaker 1: things that are going to be really important because the
- 46:52Speaker 1: fact is, right now, the way the process works is
- 46:55Speaker 1: it's who who investigates police is police interactions and potential
- 47:00Speaker 1: police actiality cases the police And so how the hechnic
- 47:04Speaker 1: can you have people who are policing people who are
- 47:06Speaker 1: then also a part of units, and so how do
- 47:08Speaker 1: we do things like introduced civilian review boards? Not kind
- 47:10Speaker 1: of thing? Can we talk about your books five days? Also? Right,
- 47:14Speaker 1: you have this new book, let's discuss the eight different
- 47:16Speaker 1: people that you actually have in this book and the
- 47:18Speaker 1: eight different points of view that you're bringing into play. Yeah,
- 47:22Speaker 1: thank you and yeah, I mean I'm you know. One
- 47:24Speaker 1: of the things I noticed when I was going through
- 47:26Speaker 1: and this was really a process that I was going
- 47:28Speaker 1: through myself, where right after everything happened with Freddy Gray,
- 47:31Speaker 1: and I remember attending his funeral and it was the
- 47:33Speaker 1: first funeral I've ever attended in my life where I
- 47:36Speaker 1: didn't know the person on they were a live and
- 47:39Speaker 1: it was one of these things because his funeral was
- 47:41Speaker 1: almost like it was a It was a thing in Baltimore.
- 47:44Speaker 1: Everybody was out, and I remember looking around the chapel
- 47:48Speaker 1: and just thinking myself, are any of us, me included,
- 47:51Speaker 1: Are any of us prepared to do what it actually
- 47:53Speaker 1: takes to truly bring justice to these young men? And
- 47:56Speaker 1: when we say justice, it's not even just the accountability
- 47:59Speaker 1: for or you know, for what happened in his death,
- 48:02Speaker 1: the fact that there's a twenty five year old young
- 48:04Speaker 1: Namement's eye contact with police and loses his life a
- 48:07Speaker 1: week later after being in a coma for a week.
- 48:09Speaker 1: But it's also the fact that here was a young
- 48:11Speaker 1: man who was born underweight, premature, addicted to heroin. His
- 48:18Speaker 1: mother battled addiction for much of her life. She never
- 48:21Speaker 1: made it to high school. She lived in poverty her
- 48:23Speaker 1: entire life. When he finally was able to gain enough weight,
- 48:28Speaker 1: him and his twin sister, Quadrika, they left the hospital
- 48:32Speaker 1: and they moved into a housing project over in West
- 48:35Speaker 1: Baltimore in North Perry Street. That housing that house that
- 48:38Speaker 1: they lived in, that in four hundred other homes were
- 48:41Speaker 1: named in a civil lawsuit in two thousand and nine
- 48:45Speaker 1: because of the endemic levels of leading inside of that house.
- 48:48Speaker 1: So the CDC indicates that if you have five microbes
- 48:52Speaker 1: of lead in every desoluter of blood, you will be
- 48:55Speaker 1: cognitively impaired for the rest of your life. Freddy Gray
- 48:58Speaker 1: had thirty six, and so he was a young man
- 49:01Speaker 1: who was born underweight, addicted to heroin, laed, poisoned, and
- 49:07Speaker 1: by that time in his life he's two years older. Wow,
- 49:11Speaker 1: what shocked did Freddie happen? What shot did Freddie had
- 49:15Speaker 1: this argument about people just need to work harder, how
- 49:18Speaker 1: hard that Freddie had top and but but honestly, like
- 49:21Speaker 1: I found myself sitting there with a sense of my
- 49:24Speaker 1: own personal complicity because I left Freddie Gray's funeral and
- 49:27Speaker 1: then I had to fly to Boston to go give
- 49:29Speaker 1: a speech on poverty. And I knew that part of
- 49:32Speaker 1: it was because the work I was doing, But then
- 49:34Speaker 1: part of it was because they were going to use
- 49:36Speaker 1: my story as like it's the celebration, it's the look
- 49:40Speaker 1: at what he did. And when you look at a
- 49:41Speaker 1: life like Freddie, it's just not true. And it's a
- 49:45Speaker 1: lie that we continue to tell ourselves. And so what
- 49:49Speaker 1: I wanted to do with this story was first ground
- 49:51Speaker 1: us in the reality of what we're talking about we're
- 49:54Speaker 1: talking about the history of systemic racism, where he's talking
- 49:58Speaker 1: about the history of tolerable poverty, the fact that we
- 50:02Speaker 1: accept levels of poverty in our society where we are
- 50:05Speaker 1: we are making a devil deal, where we're asking ourselves
- 50:08Speaker 1: just how much pain are we willing to accepting other
- 50:10Speaker 1: people as long as it doesn't impact us. Everybody, go
- 50:13Speaker 1: out there and grab West's new book, Five Days The
- 50:16Speaker 1: Fiery Reckoning of an American City by my Man Westmore West.

- 50:47Speaker 1: the John C. Calhoun statue is coming down. I'm about
- 50:50Speaker 1: to post a video of it coming down this morning
- 50:54Speaker 1: just to piss off the white supremacists that follow me.
- 50:58Speaker 1: Is that real quick? Did you see the officers out
- 51:00Speaker 1: in Ohio? Neighbors called the police on these five black
- 51:04Speaker 1: boys for playing in the street, and the police pulled
- 51:07Speaker 1: up and it was like, I don't know why they
- 51:09Speaker 1: called the police. We played in the street as kids.
- 51:11Speaker 1: A matter of fact, let's play a game. And they
- 51:12Speaker 1: played football with the kids. Did I see that video?
- 51:16Speaker 1: I thought that was dope. And the reason I thought
- 51:17Speaker 1: that was I remember being a kid and playing basketball
- 51:20Speaker 1: in the park and and sometimes, you know, the local
- 51:23Speaker 1: police officers would pull up and they shoot with us
- 51:25Speaker 1: and they play basketball with us. And that's what you need.
- 51:27Speaker 1: You could tell those cops are from the community. They
- 51:28Speaker 1: understand what's going on. And instead of you know, telling
- 51:31Speaker 1: them telling the boys that yo, get out the street
- 51:33Speaker 1: or this any other, they was like, now, let's play.
- 51:34Speaker 1: Let's play a game in football, and they played with
- 51:36Speaker 1: the kids. And that's what we need more of posted
- 51:38Speaker 1: making the street. I thought that was I thought that
- 51:40Speaker 1: was dope. Man. Yeah. I keep saying when they talk
- 51:43Speaker 1: about a community policing initiatives, I think that they should
- 51:46Speaker 1: have people from the community, encourage people from the community
- 51:50Speaker 1: to go into law enforcement and pay them an extra
- 51:53Speaker 1: financial insten or coming back to police in their own neighborhoods. Yeah,
- 51:58Speaker 1: I think that's that's that would be a a dope idea.
- 52:01Speaker 1: But whatever, I'm a tree hugger. You're really into that wood.
- 52:07Speaker 1: I know, I really, I really let me ask you this,
- 52:10Speaker 1: no joke, you don't. I don't want I don't want
- 52:12Speaker 1: to talk. I don't want to ask you. And you
- 52:14Speaker 1: grabbed it, and you grabbed the wood right, and you
- 52:15Speaker 1: pull in the wood or you whatever you do? What
- 52:17Speaker 1: do you think about? You know? When I first moved
- 52:21Speaker 1: back to New Jersey, right I was, I moved into
- 52:23Speaker 1: this apartment complex and um and uh tea neck was
- 52:26Speaker 1: that tea necker hacking sack woman that was working the
- 52:29Speaker 1: woman that was working at the front desk. She said, Charlemagne,
- 52:32Speaker 1: you need to watch Envy, And I thought she's about
- 52:34Speaker 1: to tell me, you know, Envy a schisty dude. He's
- 52:36Speaker 1: a snake. She was like, you need to watch him
- 52:39Speaker 1: because he'd be over here with this guy that's about
- 52:42Speaker 1: your height and he's bald headed and he funny sounds
- 52:45Speaker 1: coming from the room okay, and I was like really,
- 52:49Speaker 1: and she said yeah. Now the dude was my man, Sean.
- 52:52Speaker 1: People do show I'm trying to mistake, mistake me and Sean.
- 52:55Speaker 1: So basically, she was trying to tell me that you
- 52:57Speaker 1: possibly could be Envy's type. That's what she was trying
- 52:59Speaker 1: to tell me. I was two thousand and ten, now
- 53:01Speaker 1: two thousand and twenty, He's talking to me about hugging wood.
- 53:04Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell y'all. People. First of all,

- 53:12Speaker 1: But you just said you could you grab the wood.
- 53:13Speaker 1: I'm just curious to what you think about when that.
- 53:17Speaker 1: When I want to get grounded and come back the center,
- 53:20Speaker 1: I go out and I put my hands on it,
- 53:23Speaker 1: and I put my forehead the trees and prey on
- 53:26Speaker 1: the trees, and I meditate to the trees. Okay, all right,
- 53:30Speaker 1: that's what my sacred Purpose coach told me to do. Okay,
- 53:33Speaker 1: that's what I do to keep my mental health in check.
- 53:35Speaker 1: Do you want to do with Do you wear socks
- 53:37Speaker 1: and shoes when you hugged the tree? Grab the wood?
- 53:39Speaker 1: Hell no, no, I want my feet to be in
- 53:41Speaker 1: the ground. I want to get backgrounded, okay, and get
- 53:44Speaker 1: back the center. I'm just kidding, Hey, don't be knocking
- 53:47Speaker 1: my healing process. I'm not knocking your healer. I'm just
- 53:50Speaker 1: want to I want to learn you. You hug wood,
- 53:51Speaker 1: and I want to know what it does for you,
- 53:53Speaker 1: what's the benefits, how it makes you feel? You're just
- 53:55Speaker 1: talking about you want to be in the center. I'm
- 53:56Speaker 1: just asking every everybody knows you know how to hug wood.
- 53:59Speaker 1: How you got all them cars? What you got all
- 54:03Speaker 1: them cars? Are you going on the cars? And we
- 54:06Speaker 1: know you like to holk board? Yeah? You got rumors
- 54:08Speaker 1: all the way. This guy's crazy. Right now, we've been
- 54:12Speaker 1: talking rumors for the past three minute. Dude will be
- 54:16Speaker 1: talking about apologies. Jimmy Kimmel and Ti. What do those
- 54:20Speaker 1: two guys have in common? They're apologizing? All right, we'll
- 54:23Speaker 1: get into that next keep it lock this to Breakfast Club.
- 54:24Speaker 1: Good morning, bj Envy, Angela, Yee, Charlomne the guy we
- 54:28Speaker 1: all the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's
- 54:31Speaker 1: talk Jimmy Kimmel. This is the rum of Report with
- 54:35Speaker 1: angela year Breakfast. Well, Jimmy Kimmel, as you know, he's
- 54:43Speaker 1: taken a vacation, and he did come back from his
- 54:46Speaker 1: vacation to apologize for wearing black face and man show
- 54:50Speaker 1: sketches that resurfaced. Now, if you guys remember, this is
- 54:53Speaker 1: the car Malone impersonation that he did sometime at night
- 54:57Speaker 1: called the old look up and sky and say what
- 55:00Speaker 1: the hell going on up there? UFO live on other planet?
- 55:04Speaker 1: Bolden hole like et Karmelo read on TV about white
- 55:08Speaker 1: people getting deducted by alien sticking all kind of hell
- 55:11Speaker 1: up big and that's a damn thing. Well he did
- 55:15Speaker 1: do that in blackface, and now he has put out
- 55:17Speaker 1: a statement. He said, I have long been reluctant to
- 55:20Speaker 1: address this, as I knew doing so would be celebrated
- 55:22Speaker 1: as a victory by those who would create apologies with
- 55:25Speaker 1: weakness and cheer for leaders who use prejudice to divide us.
- 55:28Speaker 1: That delay was a mistake. There is nothing more important
- 55:31Speaker 1: to me than your respect, and I apologize to those
- 55:33Speaker 1: who were genuinely hurt or offended by the makeup I
- 55:36Speaker 1: wore or the words that I spoke. He then went
- 55:38Speaker 1: on to explain about his impression of kr Malone, how
- 55:41Speaker 1: it started when he was a personality on the radio
- 55:43Speaker 1: in the late nineties, and then he moved into television
- 55:46Speaker 1: with it with The Man Show. He said, we hired
- 55:48Speaker 1: makeup artists to make me look as much like Carmelone
- 55:50Speaker 1: as possible. I never considered that this might be seen
- 55:53Speaker 1: as anything other than an imitation of a fellow human being,
- 55:56Speaker 1: one that had no more to do with carl skin
- 55:58Speaker 1: color than it did his bull jing muscles and bald head.
- 56:02Speaker 1: So he did also acknowledge he did impersonate Snoop Dogg
- 56:05Speaker 1: and Oprah, and he said they were similarly performed without malice.
- 56:09Speaker 1: He said, looking back, many of those sketches are embarrassing,
- 56:12Speaker 1: and it is frustrating that these thoughtless moments had become
- 56:14Speaker 1: a weapon used by some to diminish my criticisms of
- 56:17Speaker 1: social and other injustices. So he did put out a
- 56:21Speaker 1: full statement if you want to read that, and he
- 56:24Speaker 1: impersonated Snoop by saying the N word too right. But
- 56:26Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's all he can do is apologize.
- 56:28Speaker 1: I mean, I still I still think we need to
- 56:30Speaker 1: have a larger conversation about cultural context and how things
- 56:33Speaker 1: used to be in regards to the risk people used
- 56:35Speaker 1: to take to entertain because that line about what was
- 56:38Speaker 1: acceptable and not acceptable was non existent. Everybody went too
- 56:41Speaker 1: far back then, which is true, Which is true, everybody
- 56:44Speaker 1: went too far. But you know, as long as he
- 56:46Speaker 1: understands that, he apologized, and you know he's involved as
- 56:48Speaker 1: a person, hopefully that's and we're talking about something that
- 56:51Speaker 1: is that, We're talking about something, something that has literally
- 56:54Speaker 1: changed in the last few years. And to not acknowledge
- 56:58Speaker 1: that shift is responsible of all of us. And I'm
- 57:01Speaker 1: sure he's grown since then. What else can you do
- 57:03Speaker 1: with apologize and learn from Mr? Right? And there's nothing
- 57:06Speaker 1: wrong with saying, look, that was wrong and it is
- 57:09Speaker 1: what it is, all right. Lena Waite has called out
- 57:12Speaker 1: the Hollywood Reporter and Variety for ignoring black shows. She
- 57:16Speaker 1: was on The Late Late Show with James Gordon and
- 57:20Speaker 1: she was specifically calling them out. She said, people that
- 57:23Speaker 1: are hopeful as all the black shows are like on
- 57:25Speaker 1: the long shot list or a major threat as far
- 57:28Speaker 1: as TV Emmy nominee. She said, it's like, don't act
- 57:31Speaker 1: like black TV is invisible. And so she's saying all
- 57:35Speaker 1: those trade all those trade reporters on Hollywood Reporter and Variety,
- 57:40Speaker 1: they ignore the insecures the black afs dare white people's
- 57:44Speaker 1: and for so long, she said, they act like we
- 57:46Speaker 1: don't even belong in the conversation. So that has been
- 57:49Speaker 1: her experience. All right. Now TI has apologized to his daughter,
- 57:56Speaker 1: and I know people are gonna feel like, oh, this
- 57:57Speaker 1: is oh, this is all. But these episodes are now
- 57:59Speaker 1: airing TI and Tiny Friends and family Hustle. And if
- 58:02Speaker 1: you guys remember the whole but Diana Hyman conversation that
- 58:06Speaker 1: he had publicly about his daughter and taking her to
- 58:09Speaker 1: the doctor, well, Deja's mother actually appeared with TI and
- 58:14Speaker 1: they had a whole conversation and the conversation was about
- 58:19Speaker 1: you know why deja feelings were hurt, and you know,
- 58:23Speaker 1: it's a it's a learning curve. And he did finally apologize.
- 58:26Speaker 1: Here's what she had to say at first to TI
- 58:29Speaker 1: about parenting their daughter. Whether she tells you yes or no,
- 58:33Speaker 1: believe her because really, at the end of the day,
- 58:36Speaker 1: whether or not her hyman is intact, it is not
- 58:39Speaker 1: telling of whether or not she had sex. So if
- 58:41Speaker 1: you tell the doctor to check her hymen and she's
- 58:43Speaker 1: told you I've not done anything and her hyman was
- 58:47Speaker 1: broken and she was telling the truth. Now you're coming
- 58:50Speaker 1: down on her. She's lying. Understand, Dad, I understand. Okay,
- 58:57Speaker 1: I'm beginning to realize that Damn, I ain't know as
- 59:01Speaker 1: much as I thought I did. And then she did
- 59:03Speaker 1: help him understand how inappropriate that conversation was and how
- 59:08Speaker 1: the double standard exists. And you don't do that with
- 59:10Speaker 1: your sons. Why would you do that to your daughter?
- 59:12Speaker 1: Listen to this, she feels though there is no trust
- 59:16Speaker 1: in what she says. It's a bit nosogluistic, because the
- 59:20Speaker 1: same for your son. Man, Listen, you would never do that.
- 59:23Speaker 1: I don't think that. Would you ever do that, sir? Now,
- 59:26Speaker 1: he would not. I think all of these things and
- 59:28Speaker 1: double standards when it comes to me being a dad,
- 59:31Speaker 1: I was being educated. And although I realized how inappropriate
- 59:36Speaker 1: the conversation by DJA on the podcast may have been,
- 59:40Speaker 1: you know, I hold myself accountable. I apologize to Dasha.
- 59:45Speaker 1: You know I love you. You know I've always gone
- 59:47Speaker 1: above and beyond to do any and everything possible to
- 59:51Speaker 1: make you heavy and to keep you predicted. All right,
- 59:54Speaker 1: But you know, when you watched the episode, Dja's feelings
- 59:57Speaker 1: were still really hurting. She was having a hard time
- 59:59Speaker 1: not answering a phone for him and all of that
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: because it was something that was embarrassing to her. It
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: was hurtful for her for a many different reasons. So
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: you know, that is something that should be a learning
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: experience for everyone. I remember we had this whole debate
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: up here about well, he's just being a good father,
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: But I think being a good parent is also, you know,
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: as far as for me being someone's daughter, knowing that
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: your daughter deserves her privacy, respect, and also you should
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: believe her if she's telling you something, if you know
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: she's a good girl. In Das has always seemed like
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: a good girl, and if you trust her, should you
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: should be able to talk to her and ask her
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: questions instead of worrying about what's happening with her body,
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: because women's bodies are very complicated. I mean, once again,
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: all you can do is learn from a situation and apologize. Okay,
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: I need to know who these folks saw that get
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: everything right. All the time, I was going to say
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: the same thing. He's a dad, he's just trying to
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: protect his daughter. He made some bad mistakes. He made
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: a bad mistake, and you know, he apologized, and we
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: have to learn from my lesson, like you say this
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: all the time. There is no instruction manual when it
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: comes to kids. There's no instructure manual when it comes
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: to daughters. We try to do our best, and sometimes
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: we make a wrong a wrong decision in the wrong move,
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: and we have to say, you know what, I'm sorry.
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: And just as human beings, perfect people aren't real and
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: real people aren't perfect. You're not gonna always get it right.
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: And I respect the education that you know that that
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: woman gave tip. You can clearly see he got it.
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: He admitted he's wrong. You apologize and the best apologies
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: changed behavior. What do you want from What do you
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: want from here? Blood? Mind you an episode, he still
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: didn't apologize directly to his daughter. You know, so got
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: with something too, because yeah, but she did. Look I mean,
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: if you watch the episode, it's really sad. She's like crying,
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: breaking down, you know, talking to other family members, and
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: she can't even really speak to her own father. And
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: he's still being a little bit stubborn about it. Because
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: ye is TV. They'll get to that in the next episode, right,
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: it's not real life. They got to scratch it out
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: for the storyline. That's the other bad thing about a
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: situation like this, your real life becomes people's entertainment. So
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: now which a storyline that plays out? Yeah, but maybe
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: maybe she really felt that. I mean, I'm sure she
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: really felt that way. I don't think she's, you know,
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: over exaggerating. But no, no, no, no, I can't let
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: you switch my words up. You said he hadn't apologized yet,
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: and I said, yeah, because it's TV. I'm sure he'll
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: get to that next episode. I'm sure he's already apologized,
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: but they're scratching it out for TV. All right, Well,
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: I'm Mantela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right,
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: thank you, miss Yee. That's Charlomagne, who are giving that?
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: Donkey two? There are two pastors in Arizona. There are
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: the pastors of a mega church called Dream City Church.
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: We need them to come to the front of the congregation.
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: We like to have a word with him police. All right,
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: we'll get into that next keeping lock this to breakfast club.
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: Good morning, Charlemaine, say that gang don't get the shape
- 1:02:36Speaker 1: man you are talky today does not discriminate. I might
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: not have the song of today, but I got to
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: donkey that. So if you ever feel I need to
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: be a donkey man pivot with the practice club. Bitches,
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: they just don't give today Today, Donkey Today for Wednesday,
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: June twenty third goes to the pastors of an Arizona
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: mega church called Dreams City Church. Okay, Dream City Church
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: Senior Pastor Luke Barnett and Chief operations Officer Brendan Zastro
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: are their names. And dream City is the perfect name
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: for that congregation because life is all about the buying
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: and selling of dreams. You either a hustler or a
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: customer in the dream business, and churches are the best
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: dream business. Okay. And this church was holding an event
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: featuring one of the biggest dream sellers in America today,
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump. Now, it won't be the first time
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: a dream is sold in the church. Okay. The whole
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: concept of religion is dream selling. And that's why these
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: pastors were able to get this dream off. Why should
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: I say this lie off? Okay? Now, circulating online this
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: week was a promo video that claims the church's air
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: filtration system can kill ninety nine point nine percent of
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: COVID nineteen within ten minutes. Now, I watched Bishop td
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: Jake's Every Sunday and Potter House in Dallas be fairly empty.
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: I also watched my Man Monkst Corner, South Carolina's own
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: Stephen Verdick and Elevation Church in Charlotte, North Carolina be
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: fairly empty. Clearly in Arizona they are father along in phases. Oh,
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: they just don't care. So they are trying to get
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: people back in those peas. Okay, I guess prayer and
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: faith in White Jesus isn't enough because in order to
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: get folks comfortable with coming too Dream City, they have
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: to sell a dream to the city that they have
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: installed air filtration systems that kill ninety nine point nine
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: percent of COVID within ten minutes. Let's go to Dream
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: City Churches facebook page to hear the promo. Police Here
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: at Root City Church, we're probably the first church in
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: the nation. Two. Yeah, we've we've installed clean Air e XP.
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: We have a local Arizona company. It was technology developed
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: by some members of our church, and we've installed these
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: units and it kills ninety nine point nine percent of
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: COVID within ten minutes. From the independent testing. It's ionizations
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: and IONSI it's ionization of the error and it takes
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: particulars out and COVID cannot live in that environment. So
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: when you come into our oratorium, ninety nine percent of
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: COVID is gone kill if it was there in the
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: first place, So you can know when you come here
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: you'll be safe and protected. Now, look, I'm not here
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: to tell you what to belief. If religion helps you
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: get through your day, if it gives you a better life, great.
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: Even though I am more of a spiritual person than
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: a religious person, I don't knock religion. But you have
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: to acknowledge the fact that if you can get people
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: to believe that a white man turned water into wine
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: with no grapes, then you can make them believe anything. All.
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: Ain't that whole story of white Jesus turning water into wine.
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: There was no mention of grapes. You need lots and
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: lots of grapes. There was no mention of sugar, no
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: wine yeese. And was the water filtered because you need
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: filtered water to make homemade wine. But nevertheless, I am
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: not here to be a dream killer. If that's your bag,
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: let me mind my business. But I'm just saying I
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: can tell you my air filter kills corona and you
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: would believe me because well, I told you white Jesus
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: fed five thousand people with five loaves of bread and
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: two fishes, and you believe that. I know, I know miracles, Okay,
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: but five thousand people got fed with five low bread
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: and two fishes. Come on, now, caterers, chefs, food and
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: beverage workers, talk to me. Five thousand people eight good
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: are five loabes of bread and two fishes. I am
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: not knocking you for what you just for what you believe.
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: I just noted if you call the catering service and
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: told them you had a party of five thousand, and
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: Jesus told you, not Jesus, Hayesus told you that he
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: could feed them with five loabes bread and two fishes,
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: you would hang up on Hayesus. That's all I'm saying.
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: But if you believe that, then you would believe an
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: air filter can kill coronavirus. I mean, it's literally so
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: many miracles performed in the Bible, eighty in the Old Testament,
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: eighty three in the New Testament, probably more than the
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: Lebron James version. So why wouldn't I believe my pastor
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: when he says the church has an air filter that
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: kills coronavirus. And if the church has that, why are
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: they not having them installed in every member of the
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: congregation's house. Okay, that's what why Jesus would have done.
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: He would have hooked up five air filters and said
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: two prayers, and five thousand people would have been cured
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: of coronavirus. Okay, that white man is something else, isn't.
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: That white man can make you believe in him more
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: than you believe in yourself. And that's exactly how he
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: designed it. Okay, all I'm saying is if you can
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: make people believe that Moses Rod turned into a surfeit,
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: if you can make people believe that Lot's wife turned
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: into a pillar of assault, if you can make people
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: believe a white man walked on water, then you can
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: make them believe an air filter kills ninety nine point
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: nine percent of coronavirus. And for the record, Jeffrey Siegel
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: a professor at the Department of Civil and Mineral Engineering
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: at the University of Toronto. He said he's read the
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: live reports that the clean air exp results are based
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: on and basically, he said, the devil in this case,
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: the white devil. Those two pastors are a liar okay,
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: He set, aside from the unrealistic testing that was done
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: for this filtration system, there's no filter our air cleaner
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: in the world that could reduce risk in a crowded
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: indoor environment. He said, filtration or air cleaning is not
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: a good way of protecting people who are close to
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: each other because fundamentally, you have to get the droplets
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: that contain the virus to the air cleaner and remove
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: them before they are inhaled our land on someone else
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: and eventually end up in their respiratory system. Long story short,
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: it's some bs. But Jeffrey also set, aside from the
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: unrealistic testing, Listen, you don't have to be realistic when
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: you in the church. The stories they make you believe
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: about the church from the Bible are all unrealistic. And
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: that's why when you have pastors who prey on people's
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: need to believe, like these two pastors did, religion goes
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: from being something constructive there is something destructive. In a
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: statement to CBS News, Dream City Church said the post
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: about the filtration system was meant to inform the congregation.
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: We are doing everything we can to foster the cleanest,
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: safest environment as we resume church services. AKA we're just
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: trying to get people back in this church by any
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: means necessary. Aka. This COVID doesn't messed up the church's
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: money and false profits only care about profit, So we
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: need this money to rain down like manner from the sky.
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: This is why people don't trust religion. Guys like these
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: pastors give great pastors a bad name. And with that,
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: I say, be careful who you trust. The devil was
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: wanting was once an angel. Please let Chelsea Handler give
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: pastor Luke Barnett and Brendan Zastro the biggest he haw
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: hee haw hee haw. That is way too much. Dan

- 1:09:56Speaker 1: Hall up now for ask ye morning every body is
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: breakfast club. It's time to ask ye Hello, who's this? Hi? Uh?
- 1:10:09Speaker 1: It's Tito from Brooklyn. How you doing? Ye? I just
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: gotta say I'm a big fan. I love you guys,
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: to listen to you guys every day. I just have
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: a question. I'm twenty five years old and I've been
- 1:10:23Speaker 1: dating a couple of women. But it seems that the
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: women I've been attracting only one one night stands or
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: they already have a boyfriend. And I'm looking for a
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: long term investment. And my friends tell me that I
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: should stick with because of my age, I should stick
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: with women who already have kids. And I need to know.
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: It's like any advice you can give me on the
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: dating game, Well, never when where are you meeting these women?
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: I try everywhere? You know. I just finished a college semester,
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: so I was dating a woman in college. I tried
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: tender social media, and I've been striking out. You know,
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: I get the date right, but they're not looking for something.
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: They're not looking for that type of commitment. Well, I'll
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: tell you this, Maybe you shouldn't sleep with people right
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: away when you get the date. If you're looking for
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: something more long term and you know you're upset about
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: just having all these one night stamps, maybe the best
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: thing to do is to go out and not try
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: to go home with someone and actually have those phone conversations,
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: FaceTime calls, real dates. Go out and don't sleep with
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: them right away. That way they're getting a chance to
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: know you as well. Yeah. Another thing is I also
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: been told that I'm too cheesy on dates, Like sometimes
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: I show up with flowers and I still hold doors
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: for ladies because I keep it a little bit old school.
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: I'm very respectful forward one man. I think that's great.
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: I think that sounds amazing. You know what, don't date
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: people who are already in relationships. And no, you don't
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: have to date people who have kids already. You have
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: to go out with people who you like. And I
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: think the best advice is, and I really strongly believe
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: in this, when you go on with people, don't look
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: at it as this is going to be my potential wife.
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: Look at it as this is somebody that I could
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: be friends with, that I could see myself hanging out with.
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: And then that's the person that you should try to pursue. Okay, okay,
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: do you do you know any like signs that shows
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: like if a woman is not into a long term
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: relationship or like anything like that, Like you know, any
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: signals that I should know on like a day or
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: if I if I do get to know somebody and
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: they get to know me, should I Is there any
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: like warning signs or singles that said, hey, she might
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: not be you know? Well, I think I think communication
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: is important. So if she's texting you throughout the day
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: and calling you and paying attention and asking questions about
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: what's going on in your life, and if she has
- 1:12:41Speaker 1: major decisions to make or something happened she comes to
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: you for advice and vice versa, or if that's the
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: person you know you can go to if she's available.
- 1:12:48Speaker 1: If somebody's not responding to your messages and not returning
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: your calls, then that's a sign that she's definitely not interested.
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: And I think planning in advance, like if it's right
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: now is Thursday, if you're like, hey, I wanted to
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: see if you know Sunday, I could make you brunch
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: and we could you know, do something like that. So
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: I just think things like that where you're planning ahead.
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: You guys are planning to spend time together by the
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: time your date is over. If you guys are already
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: thinking about, okay, where are we going next or what
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: are we doing next? I think that's important. But if
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: somebody just doesn't open up to you, if somebody's not
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: asking questions and seeing how you're doing, and they're not
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: communicating with you throughout the day, then most likely they're
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: not that interested. Because we get really excited when we
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: like somebody when we first meet them, and sometimes we
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: also do hold back because we don't want to seem
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: too thirsty. But if you hit her and she responds
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: right away, or you know, she responds quickly, I think
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: that's a good sign. Okay, just to rephrase all from
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: my other question, Like I said, twenty five years old,
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: So am I okay to look for women that don't
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: have kids or the wall that I shouldn't or yeah,
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: it's in preference, that is your preference. If you prefer
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: to be with somebody you're still young, who doesn't have
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: kids because you don't want to have to deal with
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: the father of the children or child and you don't
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: know what the situation is and you know, that's definitely
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: your prerogative. But you know, sometimes I think you have
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: to be flexible on that because the very thing that
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: you say you don't want is what you end up
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: getting and if that's who you end up with, and
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: it is what it is. But I definitely don't have
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: a problem with you having a preference. Okay, that actually helps. Ye.
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: You are awesome. Just once again, I love you guys
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: a lot, almain. I think you're keep it real one
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: of the best dea things out here. And ye are
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: I listen to you guys everything. I love y'all. Thank
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: you so much. Thank you should bring them some flowers, Okay,
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: I definitely will just give me an address, all right,
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: thank you. Teta ask ye eight undred five five one
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: oh five one. If you need relationship advice and any
- 1:14:52Speaker 1: type of advice, you can call ye. Now it's the
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning. I'm keep repet some real advice
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: with antheli ye ask ye droning. Everybody is DJ Envy
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we are the breakfast Club
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: with in the middle of ask ye, Hello, who's this Hello?
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: This is Kethwick. Hey, what's your question? For you. So
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: my question is, um, I'm I'm dating this good for
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: the past, um four months going on for five months. Um,
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: we have like a very strong communication with each other
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: where we are open with each other and like if
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: we feel any type of way about each other about anything,
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: we are expressive with it. So she's saying that, Um,
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: this is someone that I see myself with getting red.
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: I've been, I've been child with and everything. She has
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: met the requirement that I required, as you know when
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: it comes to like married George, choosing the mother for
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: my child and stuff like that. She's I wouldn't say
- 1:15:54Speaker 1: I love her, but it's getting there. She meets the requirements,
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: but you don't love her yet. Is happening in the future.
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: I'm not saying. I'm not saying that I do not
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: love her, but if love is a very strong word,
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: I know it will get there. But I'm Jamaican and
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: I don't love that music. Okay. No, just when you
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: said you could see yourself marrying someone and you can
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: see them being a mother to your child, I would
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: figure that means that you love her. But listen, I
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: could say I love I see said married her. What
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: if things change because you if you understand what I mean.
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: So anyway, she said before before we like move in together,
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: like if we have a plan and I'm we are
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: plan and I'm moving together. She said, we have to
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: get married before we could move in together. So I
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: was thinking that that's like a recipe for disaster, but
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: not moving in together until you get married. She wants
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: us to get married before we move in together. Okay,
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: what you think about that. I mean, if that's what
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: her requirements are and what she's saying, because you guys
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: can still date and be at each other's houses, that
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: doesn't mean that you have to move in so you
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: still have separate residences. I'm sure you spent a lot
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: of time together now. But if she's not comfortable living
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: with somebody unless they're you guys are married, then that's
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: her prerogative. I mean that's yes, I accept that that's
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: her prerogative and all that. But it's like, if you
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: there's some truish into this, like when you live with someone, right,
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: that's that's the best way of that's the best way
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: of getting to know them because I could see you,
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: I could be good friends with you, I could be
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: a good family member with you. I could have a
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: good relationship with you, but when we've lived together, it
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: could be so many different things that I didn't know
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: about you, which probably would say that I wouldn't tolerate.
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: If you understand what I'm being told, living together is
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: getting to know the person better. I mean, there's plenty
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: of people who don't live together before they get married,
- 1:17:51Speaker 1: though for some people they want to wait until marriage
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: for that because just like you find it hard to
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: be in love or love someone, she might find it
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: hard to commit to somebody on that level until they're
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: committed on the level that she wants. And if that's
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: her standard of what she wants to do, then either
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: you're with it or you're not. But I just you know,
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: you can't make somebody do something that is against their
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: own morals or what she wants to do. I mean,
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: do you all spend the night at each other's houses? Yeah? Yeah,
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: we spend each other I always think we you know,
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: we go to each other's house, We probably spend a
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: two or three days and stuff like that. But the
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: thing is, I, um, I'm kind of compromising a request.
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: I said, Okay, let's engage. Then what do you think
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: about it? I said, Okay, so you're saying that you
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: so basically you just want y'all to live together and
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: you will get engaged in order to make that happen. Yes, okay,
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: Well that's a that's a compromise. You can ask her that.
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: You can say, Okay, well, once we get engaged, I
- 1:18:53Speaker 1: would want us to live together and see if she's
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: open to that. I mean, I don't think there's anything
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: wrong with being excited about actually getting mad married, and
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: after you get married, y'all move in together as part
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: of that, because some people feel like, I don't want
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: to act like we're married and live together until we
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: really are, and you know, some people don't feel that way.
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: So it just seems like you guys have a difference
- 1:19:13Speaker 1: in opinion. I don't think either one is right or wrong. Yes,
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: but I mean, it's like it's like I'm trying to
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: protect her at the same time. But it's not like
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: I'm planning on doing her dirty or anything of that sort.
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: But it's like I'm trying to hope in her mind
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: to like certain stuff. Especially when you're dealing with persons
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: who are not really hoping to like society. Their soul
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: close into like their family dynamics are their are their
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: culture background. So it's like most of the decisions they
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: made is based on like all hours raised. But at
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: the same time, you have to look outside. You have
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: to peeple upside and see society for what it is,
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: even though that's what your family dynamic says, or probably
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: that's what your culture of backgrounds said. If you go
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: out there, you're going to meet someone who probably do
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: not have this thing. I'm not saying that you should
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: throw everything that you're dying your family dynamics or your
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: consort or your moral background said. But I'm just saying, like,
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: be more hoping to reality and what it we did. Well, sir,
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: as soon as you decide that you love her, then
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: y'all can have that real conversation, because you shouldn't want
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: to be living with somebody until you can tell them
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: that you love them and mean it. I didn't say
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: I didn't love her. You said that you're getting there.
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: You're not there yet. Why don't you wait till you
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: get there? Okay, then that's that's that's okay, that's fine.
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: I mean, Joe, I'm just I'm just saying, it feels like,
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: you know, you said. You guys have only been dating
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: for four or five months. You can see this happening, y'all.
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: It doesn't even seem like you're at the point where
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: you can be comfortable saying I love her, I want
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: to be with her. I want to spend the rest
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: of my life with her. You're not even there yet.
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: So maybe she maybe, but you're not you. You just
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: told me, I said, do you love her? What was
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: your answer? I said, it's it's getting there. I like
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: okay and everything. I like her. But if I say
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: I love love love, all right. For me to like
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: entirely love someone, I have to know you entirely. I
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: don't know her. I'm just saying, let me tell you something.
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: I wouldn't move in with somebody if they didn't love
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: love love me, So take your time. I wouldn't put
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: the pressure on this right now. There's nothing wrong with that.
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that you're wrong for not feeling
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: like you love love love her and that it's difficult
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: for you. But why don't you work on getting to
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: that point before you jump to the next point. But
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: I mean when I when you're moving to I previous dementia,
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: when you're moving with someone, it's it's it's kind of
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: like intimately getting to know them. I'd rather get to
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: know your first before we before we move in together.
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: And I don't think there's anything wrong with her position
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: on that. I want to know that I love you first.
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: Moving in together is a big deal for some people. Look,
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: I can see getting engaged and then moving in together.
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: I kind of feel the same way. I don't want
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: to live with somebody if we're not getting married. So
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: if that's how she feels, that's how she feels. You
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: feel differently, So you should have that conversation and when
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: you're ready to propose, then maybe that's when you're moving together. Now,
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: if things go terribly wrong, you could decide not to
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: get married. But you know, I just think that she
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: probably wants that love love love first. But you know,
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: I do wish you the best of luck and have
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: that conversation with her. I would say, get engaged first
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: and then start thinking about moving in together. Okay, thank
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: you so much. Okay, you're welcome. I'm sorry, it's not
- 1:22:33Speaker 1: what you wanted to hear, asking ye eight undred five
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: eight five one oh five one. Now we got rumors
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: on the way ye, yes, And Stevie Wonder has spoken
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: and he's talking about systemic racism, police brutality, voting Juneteenth,
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: all of those things. And we'll have that for you,
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: all right. We'll get into that next. Keeping lock this
- 1:22:50Speaker 1: to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. It's about
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: report angela Ye's fund. The Breakfast Club. Otosinko is giving
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: away two hundred and forty five thousand dollars in stimulus
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: checks and he says he's doing that since Trump won't
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: do it. So he posted a picture of the two
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: hundred and forty five thousand dollars that he has ready
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: and he said he's doing it July first via cash app.
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: And he's taking a part in this charitable giving because
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: Trump wants to keep on playing games. I love, loving,
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: loving private citizens take care of their own people, especially
- 1:23:41Speaker 1: if you got the means to do it. Why not.
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: That's what life is about. It's about being a service baby,
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: all right. And Stevie Wonder is speaking out and he's
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: talking about having an ending to police brutality, systemic racism,
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: and so much more. Here's what he had to say.
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: If life can have an ending, all things can have
- 1:23:56Speaker 1: an ending. Systemic racism can have an ending. Least brutality
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: can have an ending. Economic repression of black and brown
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: people can have an ending. A movement without action is
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: a movement standing still. To those who say they care,
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: move more than your mouth, Move your feet to the
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: polls and use your hands to vote. Make your plan
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: now to vote, because right now there are forces trying
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: to take your vote away. He's absolutely right. We gotta
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: be intentional on ending it, though, like we can't destroy
- 1:24:32Speaker 1: your problem. We didn't create, but we can push for
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: the destruction of it and dismantling a white supremacy, systemic racism.
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: It's inevitable that it will be abolished. God is given
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: America a chance to atone for its stands. Play with God.
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: If you want to watch what happens. You think the
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: thane'll snap? Was something? Okay, okay, all right? Stevie Wonder
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: also said he can see better than us. You know,
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: it's a sad day when I can see better than
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: your twenty twenty vision. The universe is watching us. Let's
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: do something. Let's make a difference. Steve, the jig been
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: up on that. Okay, we've been though. You could see,
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: but we just don't be saying that. You know what
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: I'm saying, We ain't gonna blow your spot up. Salute
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: when Stevie. Remember when Stevie came and he played Happy
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: Birthday for Hillary Clinton. I remember how Stevie was telling
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: people where to go. Stevie was telling his team he
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: was come this way, the doors right there, opening the
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: door for people. I'm like, what the hell like? When
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: I saw Stevie look both ways before he crossed the street,
- 1:25:31Speaker 1: I knew shot up. I saw it. I saw it.
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: He had pot Crow Street. He looked both ways before
- 1:25:37Speaker 1: he crossed the street. Man m all right. Now, Ron
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: Jeremy has been charged with three counts of rape and
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: one count of sexual assault. Now, the Los Angeles County
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: District Attorney did announce yesterday that Ron Jeremy has been charged,
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: and uh, you know he's If he is convicted, he
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: faces a possible maximum sentence of ninety years to life
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: in state prison. He could to be required to register
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: as a sex offender, and that arrayment is going to
- 1:26:03Speaker 1: be what scheduled for yesterday, so we'll see what happens
- 1:26:07Speaker 1: with that. But he is of course denying these accusations
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: of sexual assault and rape in twenty seventeen, he denied it,
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: and he has responded since then, and basically he's saying
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: that he did not do any of these things and
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: we'll see you know again. Ron Jeremy, Ron Jeremy, Ron Jeremy,
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: the adult film star. He said, I'm innocent of all charges.
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: I can't wait to prove my innocence in court. All right,
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: Black AF has been renewed for a second season. So
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: congratulations to Kenya Baris, Congratulations to Rashida Jones. They did
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: get some backlash in that series because the cast is
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: light skinned, but Kenya Barris explain the family resembles his own.
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: It's based on his own life, and a lot of
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: the things in the show that people did not like
- 1:26:53Speaker 1: is basically and people that know him have said, this
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: is kind of what his life is like. So it's
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: a take on that. Grass to Kenyon Burst, I didn't
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: I didn't like the first season, Um a lot of
- 1:27:05Speaker 1: people did. I hope the second season is is better
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: than the first. And do you really think Netflix was
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: not going to renew or shoot a show called Black
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: AF at a time like this, I would have I
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: would have dared him to not renew this show and
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: see what would have happened. You don't renew at a
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: time like this. I know you didn't like it, but
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: I enjoyed this show. And I do know people who
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: kind of act like that in real life. So I
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: just felt like it does I do? I definitely do.
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: I didn't mean I didn't say I do know people.
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: I know all different kinds of people, and it's not
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: necessary that you hang around there, but I know people
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: that do certain things. And you might think it's like
- 1:27:44Speaker 1: that was, uh, you know, a little crazy, But we
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: just know all different kinds of people. I mean, it
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: is what it is. I would have enjoyed the show
- 1:27:52Speaker 1: if him and if they have showed him and his
- 1:27:55Speaker 1: wife going through a divorce and um him prove back,
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: because that would explain his his curmudgeon, curmudgeon his behavior,
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: I don't, yeah, and he's going through a divorce, so
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: it would explain why he's so angry, why he's so mad,
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: And then you know, the whole chains and the young clothes.
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: That would have been the midlife crisis. I don't know.
- 1:28:16Speaker 1: I just think it would It was a better anger
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: they could have took. Okay, all right, well, I mean
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: you know, it's his thing. I guess would represent him.
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: It would explain why his kids are so mad at him,
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: why his daughters cursing him out because they mad that
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: he leaving mommy. Like, I just don't feel like they
- 1:28:30Speaker 1: explained why his character is what he is. Well, well,
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: you know that was season one, so maybe we'll get
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: more in depth in season two and see what's going on.
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: But it is also a comedy, so you know, they
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: had some fun with certain things and some things I
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: thought were really funny. All right, Well I'm Mandela Yee
