  Speaker 1: the Army base there, and I was interviewing different people
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: who are recruiters and members of the army, and they
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: were talking about why they joined the army, and it
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: was couples. I interviewed three different couples. They actually all
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: met while they joined the army, and they met, you know,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: while they were working, and they were just talking about
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: all the misconceptions of joining the army. People think that
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: you work all the time, like you don't have it's
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: like a regular nine to five. They think that you're
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: automatically going to get deployed and be gone for three years.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: And they were talking about all the benefits and all
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: of that, so, well, that could happen if you go
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: to Wark. They can they can put out a draft.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: You're deployed without ward. Got I got a homegirl or
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: my homegirl caught and she's deployed, deployed and some people
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: will never like there were a couple of people there
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: who haven't been deployed at all. And there's a lot
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: of different jobs you can have in the army, so
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: it's not just you know, fighting in the war, there's
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: other things. It's not just combat. There's other things you
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: can do. So they were just talking about that and
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: then all the benefits that they've been able to take
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: advantage of from joining the army when it comes to education.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: One woman was buying a home and she had to
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: put no money down, you know how that is. Then
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: after that, I went to a movie screening for this

• 5:55
  Speaker 1: about Lebron and the NBA is explaining why he was

  Speaker 1: not suspended for raking the league's COVID nineteen protocol. You know,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: he had that event for his to kill the brand.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: You saw Drake was there, Michael b Jorde. It was
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: all these pictures floating around from this event. And according
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: to the league, they're saying that he did actually not
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: violate the protocol because he was at an event, and
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: they said he briefly attended an outdoor event last week
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: where participants were required to be vaccinated or returned a
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: negative test result. Under these circumstances, and in consultation with
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: medical experts, it was determined that his attendants did not
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: create risks related to the spread of COVID nineteen, and
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: therefore no quarantine was necessary. They also talked about other
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: players who have committed similar violations during the season and
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: were not suspended or placed in quarantine. Well, listen, um,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: He's thing. They had a play in tournament I think
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: the next day, right against the Golden State Wars. If
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: they didn't win, I don't think they would have made
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: the playoffs. Now they wouldn't have Frank, So yeah, Lebron
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: James had to be there the Lakers in the playoffs.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: But I haven't seen anybody gets suspended from COVID in
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: the NBA all year long, unless I haven't been suspended.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Right when he did the when he were to go
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: get something happened a minute, and something happened with Kyrie.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: I remember when they picked a Kyrie Gard Houston. Houston
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Rockets guard Kevin Porter Junior was fine, fifty thousand. He
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: had to miss time. He said, nobody got suspended. Yeah,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen him, Williams. And it was on Lou
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Williams of Kyrie Irvin's ass for leaving for a little bit.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: But I don't think they know. They said Houston Rockets
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: guard Kevin Porter Junior was fine fifty grand and he
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: was forced to miss time in the league health and
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: safety protocols after he went to a strip club in April. Reportedly,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: oh and we blurned seasoned. Lou Williams was actually in
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: the bubble, was right, all right? Now let's talk about
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: the w NBA. Now, Connecticut Son coach Kurt Miller has
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: been fined ten thousand dollars and suspended for one game
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: by the w NBA, and that's because of disparaging remarks
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: that he made to a referee on Sunday about the
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: weight of Las Vegas Asis post player Liz Combage, And
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: basically what happened was the coach was arguing whether a
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: coll should have gone the Sun's way and told the
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: official that she weighed three hundred pounds. Now Here is
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: what Liz Coombage had to say to the coach of Connecticut.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, little sir man, I don't know your name.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Little time you tried to call out a referee trying
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: to get a col being like, come on, she's three
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: hundred pounds. I'm an eager to get baby, because I'm
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: six eight, I'm wearing two thirty five pounds, and I'm
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: very proud of being a big bitch. So don't ever
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: try to disrespect me or another woman in the league.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know if that's how like coaches run like
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: you just disrespect you try to disrespect women like that
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: from the sideline. Are you so lucky that whole pot?
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: You were so lucky that I was at my doing
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: my job. The same rules applying the w NBA is
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: they're doing real life. You can't comment on a woman's weight.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: What's wrong with you? Yeah, she said, it was not
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: just usual player to play a trash talk. It's more
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: like abuse, especially when you're not three hundred pounds. Lord
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: at Mercy, is there trash talks a little league? Though?
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Do they still trash? I've never I don't really hit
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: coaches the players. I hit players to play. Is that
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: still a thing? Because I remember as a kid when
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I played ball, like you to say anything, But now
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: I seem like it's very calm. You played ball. It
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: was different now because I mean you would talk back.

  Speaker 1: who's this? It's Venice from New Jersey. They actually just

  Speaker 1: had a question if, by any chance, you guys heard
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: about ninety nine point nine percent vaccine that just was
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: supposed to working on by Australian specialists, that's supposed to
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: come out in twenty three and if so, what do
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: you think about that? What the hell did you just say?
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know anything about that vaccine. Apparently that the
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: American specialists and Australian specialists working on that is going
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: to be ninety nine point nine percent effective. I thought
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: they I one that's one hundred percent effective. Now, I
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: thought they had one that's one hundred percent effective. Anything. Yeah,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: that's that's the funny part. That's what I thought. No,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: I don't think. I've never heard of anything that was
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent effective. I know there was a couple
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: and I think ninety five ninety six percent effective, but
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I never heard of anything one hundred percent. I thought
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: that one they called I'm looking at it now with
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: vacks astra zenica. I don't know, but that's not approved
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: here though, Oh it's not. Okay, No, that's that's the
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: one that's made that I think for mom could do
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: to buy. And I remember, yeah, this article on NPR
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: says Fizer says COVID nineteen vaccine shows one hundred percent efficiency, efficacy,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: efficacy after hell, I say, yeah, but I don't think
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: it's approved. It's not approved yet here, but anyway, get
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: it off your chest. Eight drew five A five one
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: oh five one. Now we got rooms on the way. Well, well,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: somebody is apologizing to their wife after publicly stepping out.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Do you think she should forgive him? I mean, it's
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: all up to her, but we'll tell you what he
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: had to say and how she responded. All right, we'll
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. This is the rum of reports with
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: angela year Well, Malik Beasley is trying to get back
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: together with his wife, the twenty four year old NBA player.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: If you recall, he was stepping out with Larsa Pippen
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: and they were photographed together while he was married, and
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: he posted, I want to say sorry for putting you
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: in the situation you were put in the last few months.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: My head wasn't where it was supposed to be. I
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: was looking for more when it was right here. That
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: whole time, I'm telling the world and you that there's
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: nobody like you for me. For the record, I was
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: the one who ended my last relationship off the fact
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: that there is no one like you. Also, for the record,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: I wanted to do my own is because I just
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: left you guys. And I definitely ain't the type to
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: set up pictures at the mall and ish because there
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: were pictures of him and Larsa Pippen in the mall together.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: They're walking through the mall. Seen him, Yeah, he said,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: is that's some childish ish. And I'm trying to grow
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: in individually and grow a family or real family. I
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: ain't looking to be judged. I'm looking for forgiveness, to
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: forgive me for hurting my family the way I did.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: At the end of the day, I'm a loverboy, and
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: I misholding y'all and loving y'all. I love you, Mushi.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Oh that sounds very sin sill, but I mean, you
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: always gotta remember the best apology to change behavior, So
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: you know you've got to prove that all the time. Yeah,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: because the whole world, you know, got a chance to
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: see this. So his wife responded, Montana, y'all, she said,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: McKay and I do appreciate Malik's apology. It's hard to
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: own up to bad decisions and apologize, especially publicly, so
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: it's really appreciated. My main priority has been, and will
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: forever be, my son. So I'm glad if when he
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: looks back on all it this one day he can
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: see his dad publicly apologize. Then she addressed Larsa pipp
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: and she said, your threats are good over here, ma'am,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: try somewhere else. You really need to be put in
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: check or something, because you're really wilding out here thinking
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: you're about to tell either Malik or I how to act.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: So now you got me hot, and I'm not holding
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: back no more. I've been already told you to shut
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: your trap because you embarrassed yourself enough for already. Both
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: of you were wrong as hell, but you, ma'am, had
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: the nerve to talk all that is to me as
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: if I was wrong. First of all, we as women,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: don't claim you. You wouldn't know girl code if it
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: slapped you in the face. You just an old, desperate
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: thirsty ran through blow up doll. It gets worse. Are
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: you going to say the worst? Well, she said that, Um,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: you called paparazzi every single day, and every single man
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: is sad and lame as f you need clout that
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: bad at your age, I'll be damned if I'm walking
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: around behaving like that in twenty three years, and I'll
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: really be damned to ever embarrass my children like that, like, oh,
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: spend go, spend time with your kids. You ran to
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: the media because you needed everyone to think you ended
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: with Malik because you too embarrassed that you just keep
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: getting passed around like a hot potato. Okay, but listen,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know these people. But the wife what box?
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Did she check? Yes? Know what? Maybe to his apology?
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: We don't know yet, We don't know. She's considering it. Okay,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: it's definitely like will you go with me? You check yes?
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: She then said, you really try to trap Malik too,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: trying to get him to go to fertility clinics with you.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Are you crazy? You barely even spend time with the
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: kids you already had going towards Yes, now, yeah, it
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: looks good, but faced off her reply, Well, Larsa Pippin said, Hey, sweetie,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: I can spend the day going back and forth with
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: you on the internet, but woman to woman, I would
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: never do that, especially over a man. And then she goes,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: here's some free press for you. Let me clear up
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: some of the misinformation you shared as facts. Here's the
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: truth about Malik one when and she really numbered this
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: one when I thought about him and how he treated
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: your child. He's not the type of man I want
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: a round mine. Any man who would deny his child
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: and then leave the mother penniless is not a real
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: man too. Now she's going at him. Before it was okay,
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: but now it's not. He cried entirely too much. Three
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: she crying. But then again, you never saw any Ali money,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: as you already know that, didn't you want to speak
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: women to women on social media? Let me give you
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: some womanly advice. If you ever find another man who
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: wants you for you and not all the free press
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: I'm giving both of you, lock him down. Malik was
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: a cloud chaser who pursued me relentlessly before I even
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: knew you existed. And I have the DMS. But then again,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: he knows that what social media sighted they on with
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: all these captions, all these characters, which is why I've
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: been off social media. Man Instagram, right, get a blog, blog,
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: tumble a page, like why y'all writing so much? Write
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: a book, the whole book for it just seems like
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: a lot, like for what I don't even know. Okay,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: God bless him off. Geez anyway, So that's just giving
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: you all this. Now here's uh, you want some other
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: messy news. Alex Rodriguez allegedly has slid into an Australian
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: talk show host DMS. But Linda Russell today an extra
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: but it doesn't sound so bad. Here's what she had
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: to say. I work up this morning and with you know,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: checking the socials and in my request, that was a
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: message from Alex Rodriguez. Look at that. All I can say.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: He likes great content. He just said, great fain, great fame.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Is he hitting on you? No, it's recently single. You're
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: you're happily married with three childs. Exactly, I'm very happily
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: man a children. If you're listening. Also, you know a
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: young lady just missed her blessing. She's really married with
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: three children. Oh she's got her blessing. That's right. That
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: was definitely a test to see how because that's something
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: that you could send and it's not incriminating anybody says
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: she passed the test. I didn't realize you were married
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: with three kids. She did? She pass tester. Yes. She
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: brought it up on the air embarrassing and said I
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: love my husband and my kid. She was blushing a little.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: I hear. I mean it was a random thing, just
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: to put out single. Yeah, he's fine. I'm sure if
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: a rod jumped in Charlomagne's d M Charlomagne would do.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: He would be mad. Manager with three kids talking about
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: you wouldn't ask for the smudge stick makeup he has
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: for men. He probably sent me something. All right, y'all
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: want some more messages? Why? All right? Amber Rose got
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: into a DM conversation with a woman over her man
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: and her Alexander. So apparently I guess what happened was, um,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: the woman had once sent her a message, but it disappeared.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: So amber Rose is assuming that the woman deleted it.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: And so she said, I was being nosy and I
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: looked through his block list on his phone and you
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: came up. Then I found your page too much, and
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: so that you set me a message. Didn't know if
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: you were trying to tell me something? Oh man? And
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: then um, you know. She continued to write to her,
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: and she said, I understand why you're blocked. You can
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: be honest. The woman responded and said, if I had
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: something to tell you, I would have told you before
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: you sent me the twenty one messages followed me and
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: unfollowed me. Amber Rose said, I was asking if you
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: need to tell me something. I don't understand. Why why
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: are you mad at me? I followed, assuming you wouldn't
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: write back if I didn't follow, or you couldn't write back.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: I was asking if you needed to tell me. So
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: she went her to be honest with her about what happened.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: But what am I missing? I guess? She saw that
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: the woman was blocked in her man's phone, so then
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: she went to look up the woman and saw the
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: woman at one point had sent her a message, but
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: the message was gone. So she felt like the woman
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: was trying to tell her something, and she wants to
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: know why the woman was blocked in her man's phone,
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: and so eventually she did tell her, listen, this was
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: before you, so it was nothing. While y'all two were
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: together she said, I'm asking, did you talk to him
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: while he was with me meet up with him? I
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: don't care about before I met him, And the woman responded, no,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: I haven't, So I don't have I don't have that
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: much time to be having all this conversation on social media,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: the people having some real live back and forth on
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: social for something. Yeah, she was. She went through his phone,
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: so it was blocked. Search the person. Now the woman
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: posted it. She's all right, But that was your messy
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: room report. That was a great messy room report. That
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: was one of the most message room reports I've heard
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: in a long time. I don't know what's going on,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: but I enjoyed it. And if you look through my blocks, man,
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: you would be there for years. This is phone I
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: think you know people like I got blocked them on
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: phone like phone numbers. Absolutely, really you can block people
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: phone numbers can Yes, I told me that on my phone. Yes,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: you can't see a text you get, you'll see none
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: of that. No, what about on his motor rolla two
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: way pages? I don't know about it. All right, Well

  Speaker 1: called desperately for help. So today there are going to
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: be several cities holding memorials and on of George Floyd.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: And this is all from bi Nnews dot com. If
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: you want to get more information. In Portland, Oregon, it
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: will be a Rose City Justice. Also Houston, Texas. There's
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: a George Floyd Anniversary March George Floyd Memorial Foundation inaugur
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: will remembering in Minneapolis, Minnesota, March for Justice in Brooklyn
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: at the Barclays, make a stand in Charlottesville, Virginia. And
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: in addition to all of that, President Biden will be
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: meeting with George Floyd's family today. Floyd's sister Bridget Floyd,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: his daughter Gianna Floyd, and Gianna's mother, Roxy Washington will
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: visit the White House with Joe Biden. The family meeting
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: will be private so Joe Biden can have a real
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: conversation and preserve that with the family, he has a
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: genuine relationship with them, and the courage and grace of
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: this family and especially his daughter Gianna Floyd has really
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: stuck with the President. Yeah, I hope they are, you know,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: push him to pass some real police reform, to push
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: him the path at George Floyd Policing Act. Wouldn't even
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: honestly show up to talk to him if they're not
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: talking about pushing some real police reform. Yeah, it seems
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: like it's a photo op for the president, but yeah,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: I'm with you unless we can actually and honestly talk
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: about policies and get some things pass it. Well, they
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: are trying to pass to George George Floyd Justice and
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Policing Act, but it's stalled in the Senate, even though
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: Biden didn't want to have this legislation passed by today.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: But you don't want to take out some of those
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: provisions just to pass a bill. So you want to
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: make sure that this is done properly. And it hasn't
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: been able to pass yet. Abolishing qualified immunity, you have
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: to have that in there, right, It's going to be
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: a ban on racial and religious profiling by law enforcement.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: Of course, like you said, an overhaul of qualified immunity.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: They want to set up a national Register of police misconduct.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: All of those things are provisions that would be included
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: in this bill. So instead of rushing it through today.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: You got to make sure it's done properly. And I'm
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: sure the family agrees with that as well. You got
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: to be groundbreaking, you know what I mean, Like we
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: need some like nineteen sixty four civil rights tight legislation pass.
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: They gotta be that groundbreaking voting rights legislation. I'll be
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: that that groundbreaking all right. And right now, about thirty
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: nine percent of the population here is fully vaccinated. And
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: as they're trying to do some more incentives North Carolina,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: they're giving away twenty five dollars cash cards if you
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: get the vaccine, so they're going to be giving those
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: away as you get your first dose. How bad they
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: think people in North Carolina? A billion dollars? What kind
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: of card? You say? Gas cash, cash card? You can
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: do anything with you, man, You can do more than
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: twenty five. You can buy twenty five little tickets. It's
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: the same as doing a little things. They give you
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: a one lottle ticket to post to twenty. Now you
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: can buy twenty five to step it up, bro, twenty
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: five dollars. Come on, man, well at least give me
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: a one hundred dollars. I know there's some people that's
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: gonna go get that first shot several times to go
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: twenty five. That's what I'm saying. Give me a twenty
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: five dollars, a chip fil a gift card, or something
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: something worth for twenty five dollars. Come on, all right.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: And in Texas they are poised to remove one of
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: their last major gun restrictions. Lawmakers did approve allowing people
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: to carry handguns without a license and without the background
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: check and the training that go with it. So they
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: approve that measure on Monday, and the governor has said
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: he will sign it, even though a lot of law
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: enforcement groups say it would endanger the public and the police.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: They already have some of the loosest gun laws in
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: the country in Texas and more than one point six
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: million handgun license holders as well, So according to supporters
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: of the bill, it will allow Texans to better defend
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: themselves in public, and but already they have a lot
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: of really loose laws over there. Without the state background check,
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: law enforcement groups are worried there'd be no way to
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: weave people out in advance. And the bill would not
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: prevent businesses, though, from banning guns on their properties. So
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: if you own a business you can still say you
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: can't bring your gun in here. I don't know, it's
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: a part of me that feels like that'll that'll help
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: help keep order, you know what I mean, Because if
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: you know somebody else scrap, you're gonna think twice about
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: pulling yours out just to randomly start shooting that people.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Well, has it you know,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: has it been working in states where you can carry
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: and it's known, like does that work in Houston? It's
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: crimed down as it work in Atlanta, Like it's crimbed down,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Like that's what we have to read. I mean, I
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: would just think about like like mass shootings, because every
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: time somebody, yeah, whenever there's a mass shooting and somebody
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: pulls out a gun and the start shooting mad people,
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: I'm always like, I wish somebody else had a gun
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: to take that person out. Wish they didn't have that
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: person didn't have a gunshot. I'm with you, but that's
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: not reality. But no, Texas already allows rifles to be
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: carried in public without a license. I mean, I just
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: feel like there's got to be some type of I'm
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: not saying people shouldn't have guns. I think Georgia, I
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: could walk around with you. You should have some type
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: of training rifle. What you mean walk? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: you could carry a rifle in Georgia too. But you know,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: in a lot of these states, you can get a
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: license even if you don't live in those states, to
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: carry conceal. All I'm saying is if you know somebody
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: else scrapped, you think twice, right, you know what I mean.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: Anytime I'm in any of these states, I have my
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: concealed because I can carry in like forty states. So
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: can my wife. Yeah. I just want to make sure,
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: and I think everybody should. I think people should have
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: some type of just like you got to take a
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: test to get your license, I still think you need that.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: All right, Well that is your front page news. All right,
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back, Mike

  Speaker 1: reached out to me and uh, he wanted to meet
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: and he was like, hey, I want to do a show,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: but I'm to be honest with you. When they first
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: said hey, Mike EMPs wants to meet with you, I
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: was like, ah, geezus. I really like my life and
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: I know Mike for years though, I you know, so
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: I was like, all right, let me let me hear
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: what you wants to do. And he told we didn't
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: want to do this show about it, you know, work
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: class family. Uh, in the Midwest wanted to do like
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: a black Luzan And I was like, damn, this is
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: a great idea because you know, we don't have that.
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: And then we started talking about shows that we like,
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: um when we vote for normal lear fans, and I
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: then when he said that, I was like, Okay, now
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: you speaking my language because I wanted to show to
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: to you know, to say something. And also I was like,
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: you know, there's not a show out there that doesn't
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: represent this part of America and also tells our story,
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: you know, and he's a black families are very successful
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: or drugs or we're coming out of slavery, you know. Yeah,
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: So we wanted to celebrate the black worst class family
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: and laugh and but make it real because family's are messy,
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: so we wanted to be messing and so yeah, it's messy.
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: So we want to be messy and authentic and because
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: that's how most Americans are live right now, all right,
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: when we come back, we have more with Wanda Sykes
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: and Mike Eppstein or the new Netflix series The Upshorees
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: Don't Move. It's the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Envy and Juli Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: Breakfast club. We're kicking it with Wanda Sykes and Mike Epps. Ye,
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: Now you do have like a explain this extra baby,
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: the bonus child that's on the episode. It was a
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: break or something that you tech or like, how did
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: this come about? And I want to hear this part
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: of this story. What I mean, well, you know, this
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: is what made the show so good is that black
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: people have a perception of who's the perfect black person
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: for white people. I'm one of the guys that I
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: represent all the brothers who are not perfect, who don't
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: act perfect who we are and we got kids, and
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: we got we got felonies, we got problems. That's really
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: a big percentage of us in the community. That's right.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: So to do a show like this and for me
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: and Wander and Kim to represent these characters, this is
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: a breakthrough and show business. There's no such thing as
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: a perfect human and I don't know why people act
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: like that. I hate when people say that, um my
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: unproblematic faith, ain't no such goddamn thing, not nobody, not
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Martin luperteen Junior. You can't find a perfect black person,
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: and if you do, you're they lying, right. But what
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: I do appreciate about the show is that, like you said,
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: nothing is perfect, but you work through things right. And
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: I think that can help people because so many people
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: are in the situation where they're like, Okay, he has
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: a baby mother. I don't necessarily like her, but we
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: do have to figure out how do we get along
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: for the sake of our family and for the kids.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: And that is something that people really struggle with, right,
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: And that's what this show is, that, you know, And
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: that's why I went to Wander. I could have went
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: to a million other comedians, but I went to Wander
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: because I knew that she could take it and dish
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: it at the same time. That's what I think may
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: just show great is because we had veteran Kim Fields
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: there who's been doing TV forever to that, you know,
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: anchoring this show. And then to get Wander and me,
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: we comments, we got Paige Kennedy, who's a beast on there,
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: Michael Estimate, Gabrielle Dennis, we got some man oh man, yeah,
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: killing it. I'm telling you, if she doesn't get the Emmy,
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: you know, that's that's how good she is on this show.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, Dudy's a grown ass woman. Damn, let
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: me ask you a question. Wanted is comedy is still funny?
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: It's it is now? It is now. I'm like, Mike
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: has already back out. I can't. I can't wait to
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: get out there. You know, I haven't been on stage
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: and over a year and a half, sou but it
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: is now. But at one point, Na, it wasn't funny.
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: I didn't find anything funny, and where I didn't think
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: I was. I didn't want to go out and do
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: not that I could, but I didn't even want to
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: do the zoom stuff because I didn't. I was at
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: a place where I was like, no, I ain't making
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: nobody laugh. Y'all don't deserve to laugh right now? I was.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: I was, I put everybody on punishment. I was like,

• 46:49
  Speaker 1: so ain't nobody close to nobody gotches? But you know,

• 47:01
  Speaker 1: I'm like, all these empty seats and the guy we're

• 47:22
  Speaker 1: Michael to hell, is Mike doing slapping ass in twenty

• 48:11
  Speaker 1: being watching this show over and over and also Wanders fans.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: And that's why I think the show was so good
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: because she brought an audience that was not really hip
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: to make to me, and I brought an audience they
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: know Wander, but you know what I mean. My audience
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: is straight up p PP money and scam and ghetto
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: and all that. You know what I mean. And I
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: was worried about when you slept ass. I was like,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: oh boy, when Mike gets home, if you were winding there,
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: if you were wind to take and you look at
• 48:49

• 49:32
  Speaker 1: role different? Um? But you know, I've been in this

• 49:39
  Speaker 1: the writer's room and uh, you know, getting the scripts
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: together and everything. And then when I'm but when I'm
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: on stage and performing, I try to you know, I
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: turn that other part off so we can, you know,
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: so I can make the make the performance. But when um,
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: when I'm not in the scene, then I get back
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: behind the monitors and you know, and watch everything. But um,
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: it was cool working with Mike because you know, like
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: encourage him to like, heye, man, if this this, how
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: would you say this? If this doesn't sound right to you?
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: Or you know, Mike, you got a better joke for this.

  Speaker 1: it was fun. It was fun showing up every morning
• 50:30

• 50:34
  Speaker 1: it was almost like summer school. You remember how fun
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: summer school used to be. Now that was not. I mean,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: you don't have to go all day, you know what
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: I mean a couple hours. I hated being there, but
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: I get what you're saying. It was fun. I had
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: to go for seventh grade, eighth grade, and ninth grade
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: three years in a row with my dumbast summer school.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: Do you back out on the road, you know, cancel culture?

• 51:04
  Speaker 1: Do you guys have to any jokes to make sure
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: you're not offending somebody now? Or is it like after
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: who cares? I mean, everybody know who I am, So people,
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: you can't come to my show and expect nothing different
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: than what I'm gonna say. And do you know what
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, just like you said what I did when
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: I fell and hit the girl on the butt or
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: whatever the situation. Did everybody to come to my show
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: know what it is? They coming to my show because
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: guess what, Mike Caps is a fool. He gonna ain't
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: no telling. I mean, I've been having fun on the
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: show man. I ride a bike to the stage. Get off.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: I might bring somebody's aunt on the stage, like Mother's
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: Day I was bringing. I was bringing some of the
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: mothers on on the stage and we was dancing with
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: keep sweat on and you know what I mean, it's
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: it's a party, it's fun. We off the block, were
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: straight off. We ain't gonna know number he having a
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: good time. Ain't no rules and regulations. Ain't that. That's
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying about the show and the character that
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: I portray. But Bennie Upshall is I come to represent
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: all the brothers who don't have no restrictions, that got felonies,
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: baby mamas, the police don't like them, the police want
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: to kill him. I mean, I'm representing all of that
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: through this character Bennie Upshall. So you see a lot
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: of yourself in the character of Benny Upshaw all day.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: So in other words, you drive your wife crazy. Hey,
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: guess what I think? Everybody driving wife crazy. But at
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: least I ain't transparent, you know what I mean. I'm
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm right out of probably mine. How was the pandemic?
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: Because Wanda talked about feeling like sometimes she just needed
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: a break, Like how was it for you guys? But
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: you know, we went through the same regular uh motions
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: that a relationship go through, you know, every day you
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: ain't gonna wake up happy with each other and smiling
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: and giggling. But I got a bunch of kids and
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: they always brightened it up. They came over and we
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: made I taught my kids how to make slams and
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: little prison snacks, and they joining it is. One of
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: my daughters actually liked it. I'm like, you're not supposed
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: to like this. Right here? I made her a slam man.
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: It looked like it looked like a castle roll. When
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: I got done with it, would you put in it?
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: Would you put in it? A slam is a is
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: a is a penitentiary meal, a bill you make in
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: jail or prison. And you can make it out of
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: ramen noodles and you can you can slice the little
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: the little chicken sausages in it, and you can put
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: a little tune on it. You can do all kind
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: of the brothers know what I'm talking about. One that
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: has to create an EP. How important was it for
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: you to show an untraditional family on TV? That was
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: that was the whole basis of the show. Know, I mean,
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: this family is how most Americans are are living, so
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: it was important to keep it authentic. So that was
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: that was the like said the quest on the show.
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: Hold up, man, I'm gonna eat P two now. No,
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't get there. You know. I let Wanda.
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: You know what this is a thing about that Wanda
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: and Regina or they they such great leaders that I
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: liked my position with them. I took the EP position.
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: And then they give me a chance to let They
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: let me do what I want to do, and then
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: they had they write it. They wrote. They wrote this
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: script so well that every character that came in and
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: played it was like putting on a shoe that just
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: fitch your foot, you know. No, I love I love
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: seeing people say that they liked the show, because you know,
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: I like seeing black people and the driver seat of
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: these shows. But sometimes I wonder if we cared more
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: about diverse city and wokeness then we do about something
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: actually being good man, say that again. I know right,
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: You're absolutely right, And we were on the most important
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: thing for us was to be funny. I mean, come on,
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: I got Mike Epps and and myself, and there's no
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: way in the world we could put something out and
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: it not be funny. We would they would, they would
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: just clown us, and so I um, We definitely want
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: to make it funny, but we definitely had to. Like
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: you said, we told Netflix, it's a it's a family
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: about a black family, and they're not gonna just have
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: white neighbors because that's you know, for the diversity's sake,
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: or you know, it's because a lot of networks they
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: do that. And Netflix was really good about that. They
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: were like, look, do the show that y'all want to do,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: and they never gave us, you know, notes like that.
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: So well, listen, man, I hate zoom interviews. I wish
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: that y'all could be in studio right now. But now,
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: thank y'all for supporting us and having us all man,
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: thank all the fans. Then wandering the whole quote, We
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: want to thank the fans because without the fans, we
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have been number one on Netflix. So thank you guys.

  Speaker 1: but he was fight. If you were there, why didn't
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: you defend j Cole? You know Kendrick. I don't think
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: he needs me to defend him. You don't even remember
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: being there? Yeah, he didn't even listen. I mind my business.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: There's a fight going. I'm not I'm not the one.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: I don't even pull out my phone. Things there? Do
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: you remember? No? All right, So anything that happens in
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: front of me, you guys can all feel comfortable that
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: it stays there because I don't know and I never
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: remember anything. All right. Now, let's talk about the view.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: It a little heated on that show, right, as it
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: does many times, and Megan McCain didn't have a clash
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: with Whippe Goldberg and Joy Bayer. Here is what happened.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: This is how people get red pilled. They're red pilled
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: when they see the blatant bias in the media. It's
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: because the media doesn't want the squad to look bad.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: They just want Marjorie Taylor to look bad. Anti Semitism
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: is a huge problem everywhere in this country. When you
• 1:01:22

• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: May twenty fifth goes to the Friest. That clinic okay
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: to Friesta Clinic is a hospital in Austria. And listen,
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: let's be clear, nobody likes going to the hospital. There
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: is not a soul alive who wants to be in
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: the hospital. If you're in the hospital for anything other
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: than having a baby, that means something is wrong. Okay,
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: we would all rather remain healthy, not have to have surgeries, etc.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: But that's just not reality. The reality is we all
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: have elements, we have medical conditions, just like this eighty
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: two year old man in Austria did. Okay, See, there
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: was an eighty two year old patient suffering from many illnesses,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: some of which have affected his legs, and those medical
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: conditions affected both his legs. In fact, whatever was happening
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: with one of his legs caused him to have to
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: get one of his legs amputated, just like Big Mom
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: in the movie Soul Food. Okay, that should be a
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: pretty cut and dry procedure. Correct sidebar speaking of dry
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: as in dry age meat. I've always wanted what do
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: they do with body parts after they do these amputations.
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: You can't just throw a limit a trash, can can't you?
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: In my mind, they're selling this human flesh is food
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: somewhere somebody in the world right now dining on from
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: eighty two year old dry age human flesh. Okay, who
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: needs the age beef when you can just eat an
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: old human. If these body parts aren't being eaten, please
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: tell me what's happening with them, because inquiring minds meaning me,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: would like to know. Now. As I told you, this
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: eighty two year old suffered from a bunch of medical conditions,
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: so doctors had to amputate his left leg. But in life,
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: you must learn to measure twice, so you only have
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: to cut once, literally, especially if a surgery is involved. See,
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: this guy had to get his left leg amputated. We
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: all know where our left is correct, that's where Beyonce
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: told us to go, and you know where the right
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: is right, that's where conservatives are. So he needed his
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: left leg amputated, but an error occurred see the hospital work,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: and mistakenly put a operative mark on the wrong leg.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: So doctors were supposed to amputate the left leg above
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: the knee and ended up cutting off the right leg
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: above the knee. The right leg was the wrong leg. Okay,
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: all right, the right leg instead of the left leg
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: was amputated above the knee. This is not my bad situation.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. I came here to get my left
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: leg removed because I had a medical condition and end
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: up getting the right leg removed, only to still have
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: to come back and get the correct one amputated. Oh
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: New Friestad Clinic. Okay, you know y'all getting sued. Y'all
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: don't have a leg to stand on in this situation.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: They are wrong and have admitted such a a statement.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: A disastrous combination of circumstances led to the patient's right
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: leg being amputated instead of his left. That is an
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: emission of guilt. I mean, damn, I'm eighty two. I
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: can do one leg for the rest of my life.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, damn, at that age, I got one foot
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: in the grave anyway, But now I have nothing. This
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: is sad. Okay. I can't stand human era that ruined
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: someone's else's life. Okay, it's really hard to just stand
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: by and watch something like this happen. I just don't
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: know what to do. All I know is we can't
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: stand for this, and neither can that eighty two year
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: old man or his family. The Clinics medical director Norbert
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: Frist said, we have to find out how this failure,
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: this mistake could happen. I would like to apologize publicly
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: here well, Norbert. Okay, from where I stand, the clinic
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: should be reviewing its stand dirts. Okay, poor guy, you
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: don't know what he wanted to do with the rest
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: of his life. What if he wanted to try stand
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: up comedy? Huh? Now what when things like this happen?
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: The hospital should be financially responsible to the family, but
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: the next few generations okay, free medical bills covered for
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: all the family. The clinic does not have a leg
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: up in this situation at all. They are wrong, period
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: and they need to be some stand up people and
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: do the right thing by this eighty two year old
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: man and his family. Please let Mammond give the Friestad
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: Clinic in Austria the biggest he hall he ah, you
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: stupid mother. Are you do they have enough money to
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: pay this family? No, No, legs are priceless. I'm telling you.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: It's saying costing norm in the leg. But there's no
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: really no, there's no price for a real leg. Come
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: on man, all right, well, thank you for that. Donkey

• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: Angela's it's phenomenal. That's phenomenal. But yeah, they did get
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: private label extensions. How did you create that? Why? And
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: and then how did you hook up with angela guy? Yeah?
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: So we started with the idea back in twenty thirteen,
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: and it was something where we thought we were just
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: going to be online. We saw a big market there.
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: My business partner or his girlfriend introduced us to hair extensions.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 1: So we're dating a girl that was like, hey, you
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: needed some extensions or you're hating The girl was like,
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: you did look your hair? Is a little thin, Like
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: how did you get into hair extensions? Like what was
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: it something that you was you know that you've seen, like,
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: you know, it's one of those things that I wouldn't
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: be like, hey, hair extensions, This seems nice. Yeah, especially
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: when you look at me, you probably wouldn't think that either, Yeah,
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: because it looked like you got a baldy. Yeah. No,
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: So it was just one of those things that it was.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: It was interesting because there was there was I felt
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: like people were paying way too much for extensions, Like
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: I was looking at the market back in twenty thirteen,
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: and people just paid way too much. So we wanted
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: to do something to have a high quality product, make
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: it affordable, but then also give people an opportunity opportunity
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: to get into the business. So we started with something
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen that was more of like an affiliate system,
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: and then we made a pivot in twenty sixteen where
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: we really focused on building businesses for other entrepreneurs and
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 1: that continue to grow with a bunch of different services
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: to make it easier for them, from branding, drop shipping,
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: wholesale supply pretty much a to Z one stop shop
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: and uh, it's worked out phenomenal. I mean, we've created
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: in the last few years some very successful entrepreneurs or
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: the back end of a lot of celebrity brands. I
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: saw private Label. We don't really talk about it who
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: those people are. I'm sure you know who they are,
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: and it's it's just been. It's been phenomenal. Now, I
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: want to before we even get into that, right, Mikey
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: is a serial entrepreneur, and before he's built this successful
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: business with Private Label, you've had other businesses that actually
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: haven't worked out the way that you expected as a
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: matter of fact, So let's talk about that. Because you
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: actually had a food company, a curry, a Thai curry
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: food company. Yeah, Thai curry. Yeah. And once again you
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: look at me and you're like, yeah, it was one
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: of I was working in a restaurant, a Thai restaurant,
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: and everyone was complaining about being able to cook Thai
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: food at home, and I was like, what's going on
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: with this? And I said, this is maybe a big opportunity.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: So I worked with some manufacturers in Thailand right outside
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: of Bangkok, in a city called Chonburie, where they do
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: a lot of food manufacturing, and we created the first
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 1: package Thai curry sauce ever to be sold in America.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: And this was back in two thousand and six, and man,
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: I thought, I was like, I thought I hit a
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: home run here, you know. I was like, you know,
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: I was bawling it on a budget. But still like
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: I thought, I was just like the coolest guy ever
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: with this because I'm in like all the newspapers and media,
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: cooking on TV, I'm in Whole Foods and all this stuff.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: And then like two thousand and nine two ten hit
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: and I think a lot of us went through a
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: lot there. And when I tell you, I got wiped out,
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: like negative bank account, you know, credits gone, barn money
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: from my mom and grandmother, you know, like and that's
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: when I'm in my early thirties and you don't want
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: to call your grandmother and your third use and be like, hey, grandma,
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: can I borrow some money? Like it was it was rough.
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: So how did you get the money to create that company? Like?
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: What was it loans or was it borrowing? Was it
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: you know, crowd funding or I had actually been working
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: like absolutely crazy for the previous seven eight years just
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: trying to save every dollar I could. I basically was
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: just bartending and working in restaurants while trying to find
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: that big idea. I didn't want to get into corporate America,
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: which I love. I loved that because most people would
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: automatically assume its privilege. You know, when people work hard
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: and you save and you say, you know what, I
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 1: took that extra shift, I did that extra hour. Maybe
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: I didn't go to the club, maybe I didn't buy
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: that car, and I saved for my idea. I mean
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: it wasn't a great idea because it didn't work, but
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: you did what you had to do, and I love that. Yeah,
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: that it didn't work doesn't mean it wasn't a great idea.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah it didn't pop like it should have. Yeah, I
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: wasn't prepared. I wasn't I wasn't the entrepreneur that I
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: am today. I hadn't gone through all the failure and
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: I hadn't, you know, gone through those hardships of Like
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: I remember one point I actually thought about it. I
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 1: didn't put it in the book, was you know there
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: was a point I literally was so stressed out about
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: finances when everything just went down that I didn't sleep
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: from us three days straight. And um, so when I
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: started doing a couple other businesses, and when I got
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 1: into hair, I said, this is it. I'm not making
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: these mistakes, you know, I'm I'm a different personnel, a
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: different entrepreneur. And I think that's something that a lot
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: of people don't realize that when you fail in business,
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: that's a stepping stone towards success, correct, right, Because most
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: people don't talk about their failures. But every entrepreneur that's
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: been in here or you know, they've they've definitely failed
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: at a lot of things. And I usually say, hurry
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: up and fail and get it out of the way
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: and learn from it. That's a great experience, and then
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: then you can start doing something. I remember you had
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: that car wash and then Hurricane Sandy hit. Hurricane Sandy hit,
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: and not only that, one of my employees pulled the
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: vacuum off and then the vacuum fell off, it hit
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: somebody's car, and I had it was it was all bad,
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: and it was it was bad. Now let me ask
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 1: you this. You talk about this in your book Fairyless Beauty,
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: And do you expect your friends to help you when
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: you start a business and should you them to help
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: you and buy your product? Definitely not? Do not start
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: a business because you think your friends are going to
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: support you. It's not going to happen. Once your brand
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: becomes popular, if you can get it there, then all
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, everyone wants to be your best friend,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: everyone wants to buy from you. But when you first
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: start off friends and family, I don't know what it is.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: You know, we talk about it in my start a
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: Hair Business Facebook group all the time. I have thirty
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: seven thousand entrepreneurs in the hair industry. It's the largest
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: group on Facebook that I've posted in every single day
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: for eight years straight, multiple times a day, and we
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 1: talk about these topics all the time, and you know,
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 1: people get in there and they get frustrated and they're
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, you know, I started this and my
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: friends wear hair and they're not buying it. And my
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: family's not wearing hair, they're not buying it. And I said, look,
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: and then everyone kind of knows this is like, this
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: is common. It's not just in the hairdustry, but many industries.
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: It's very hard to get family and friends support. I
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: just don't think because most of them have never been
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: an entrepreneur that they don't know the struggle of entrepreneurship.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: And how difficult it is. So they really don't understand
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: at the level that we understand as business owners. We
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: understand how difficult it is, and just that little bit
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: of support can go a long way. So, you know,
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: I think it's real important to be able to support
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: your friends and family. But it's just it's so hard
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: to get all right, we have more with Mike morand
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: where we come back, don't move is to breakfast Club.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: Good morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: the guy we are to Breakfast Club. We have a
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: special guest still hanging out with us. This is Angelie's
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: partner when it comes to her hair business. Mike Murandi
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: also has a best selling book E Now, Mike, then
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: you were talking about entry into this business, right, and
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: it has been difficult even though black women are the
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: ones who are buying these products, for us to actually
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: own these stores and have this direct pipeline to get
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: the hair. So can you discuss that. Yeah, you know,
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: what's made us successful is the supply side. In building
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: the relationships. There's times where you know, pretty much every
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 1: day I'm up at two three o'clock in the morning
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: working with overseas, my manufacturing partnerships that I have because
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: I'm fighting tooth and nail for every penny because it's
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: going to end up being if we pay more, our
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: clients are going to pay more. So we want to
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 1: have access to the best products and everything else for
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: our clients, and I think it's so important for them
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: to get access because it's it's not easy, especially with
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: the pandemic. For the last year it's been it's been
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: really crazy with a lot of the products. So that's
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: why it's it's been really important for us to focus
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: on making our clients great with great supply. Education, I
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: think is something that is absolutely crucial in our business.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: These connections though, like for somebody that's like, Okay, I
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: want to do this too, and I know you have
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: your Facebook group with thirty seven thousand entrepreneurs in the
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: hair of business or people wanting to be in the
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: hair business, But how does a person like, how did
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: you get connected? You know? As we started getting bigger,
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: So like as we get more clients, our buying power
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: gets bigger, more people find out about us overseas, and
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: we're really focused on working direct with real manufacturers. So
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: in the hair industry. You know, there's there's a lot
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: of people that say their manufacturers overlying. Just because you
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: live in China and your China based business doesn't mean
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: you're the actual manufacturer. Most of those people are buying
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: from the manufacturers and they're more of like a marketing company.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 1: So what I do is I go overseas, and you know,
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: I've met people where they're like, oh, I'm the manufacturer.
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: I said, Okay, cool, I'm gonna actually be in your city.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna being glug Joe, I'm gonna be down, I'm
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: gonna be there and we're gonna go take a look.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: And actually, I can tell you guys a crazy story.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: One time I knew these guys. I wasn't sure I
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: was doing business with them, and they said they're manufacturer.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: They seem legit. And I actually went to the countryside
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: of China, not a comfortable places as an American or
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: just really anyone, to be honest, this is, you know,
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: I'm eating bugs and other stuff for lunch with them,
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: and it's just it's kind of crazy. And I swear
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 1: they had their sign up and I think it was
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 1: they were not the manufacturer. And depending on what guests
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 1: they're bringing, maybe from another country, someone like myself. They
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: changed the sign out at the place. I think it
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 1: was like this fake kind of man. I'm kind of
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: like a fake manufacturer kind of deal. And just they
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: have their own relationships. But we're out of that now.
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, our relationships are you know, amazing. That's the
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: toughest thing. Like even with so we do clothes, you know,
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: we do merch at the car shows or merch wherever
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 1: we go. But trying to get that connection, to get
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: it is almost impossible, right because you're speaking to somebody
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: you don't speak the language. Like there was one guy
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: from India that was giving me great prices and thank god,
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: my physician's assistant is Indian. So I just asked. I
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 1: was like, hey, can you speak to them for me please?
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: And she was like yeah, pretty much. Envy they were
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: a scam. They were gonna get you. But you don't know,
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: because imagine how many people get scams. Absolutely because you
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: don't know. It's a language barrier. You're dealing through emails.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: You think you get a close and then the clothes
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 1: you get as cheap and you know, so thank god,
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: you know, but you have to ask and you can't
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: be afraid to ask. That's what I realized. Sometimes I
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: have too much pride. But now it's just like nah,
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: I just ask, Like even if I have a problem
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: with something like ye, can you guide me here or
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: you know it? Just you just need to know people
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: that know it's it's not a problem to ask. I
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 1: ask all the time. There's a lot of things that
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, if you're still looking for that
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 1: manufacturer of clothing, make sure he gets me in contact.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: I have the guy. I'm talking like everybody with guy
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: for this, So like you will be well taken care
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: of for this, like thousand percent now being in a relationship, Mikey,
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: how is that for you when it comes to you
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: you worked twenty four to seven. How many private label
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: stores like actual brick and mortar locations are there? The
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: fifth one's about to open up in Lathonia, George, Right,
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: so five stores. And then obviously you have the online
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: sales e commerce business. But then you also have another business,
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: like you said, were your private label for you know
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: other people who have their own hairlines, So a lot
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 1: of times you're buying a celebrities hairline. Right, Let's say
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: Let's say DJMV has his own line of lace front beards,
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: and so you're you think you're getting it from Envy,
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: but then you are, let's do pubic braids, but m
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: Mvy's really getting it from private label. And then you're
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: over there packaging the products right and shipping it outright?
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: How it works? Sure? Yeah, it works? Sound great for
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: people because a lot of times, you know, for celebrities,
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: they don't have the back end to do all this,
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 1: you know, to manage to supply the inventory. We're talking
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: very expensive products here, you know, so to handle all
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 1: that is. It's something so we've actually created. We've been
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 1: always tailoring it like anything. I'm always looking for that
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: one percent, and anyone in anyone's business, there's thousands of
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: one percent changes you can make to improve your business,
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: which is so important. So I focus on that one percent.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: And I think we've gotten to a place where we've
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: even created a better package where it's kind of they
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 1: can come in and we kind of do everything, kind
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: of like how a lot of celebrities with the makeup
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: brands and stuff. It's very popular, right. Yeah, So we've
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: my lashes right now, which are by the way, private
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 1: label extension lashes, but you do lashes for people too. Yeah. Sure,
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: and we're getting into the cosmetic side, you know, and
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: that's something that kind of just it all fits. Let's
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: talk about how we met. Yeah, So we met a
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 1: couple of years ago, and it was great because Angela
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: did our radio ads and Mike, you offered me help
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: on other things. He was like, and you know, because
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: he's really big, and this is so important too when
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 1: it comes to e commerce and targeted ads online and
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: I can shure that you do that because a lot
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: of people don't do that. Also when it comes to
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: whatever it is their product or their store location. And
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 1: so he was offering me help with other products that
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: I had that I was doing. Yeah, when you find
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: great people, you know, if you can, if you're at
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: the point where you can give a little time, it's
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 1: it's good to do it. So then we went to
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 1: your podcast, you know, we went to lip service when
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: they were in Atlanta, and then we met and then
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: we actually hung out and she drinks tequila. I drink tequila.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: So I said, wait, this a great person. And I
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: actually just threw it out there. I said, have you
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: ever thought of opening you know? Getting into the beauty
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: space and she goes, I haven't really, but I would
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: love to. And we stayed in contact for probably over
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: a year year and a half and I said, if
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: you want to do something in Detroit, I'll be down
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: for that. And I text Angela on like it was
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: like a Tuesday, you know, last year, and I said, Hey, Angela,
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: I would love you to come down. I'll show you
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: my sales. I'm like going to show you the stuff.
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: It's not just I'm going to send you something and
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 1: it can be like photoshopped. I'm show you the real deal.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: She text me back, Okay, give me a second, and
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: then like thirty minutes later she text me back She's like,
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: i'll be there Friday. And I was like, oh, Ancela serious, serious,
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 1: she wasn't coming to work. Yeah, yeah, yeah, she was serious.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: And she came down. She saw the numbers. I said, look,
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: let's do something in Detroit. And you know our Detroit
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 1: store is it's it's like walking into a Gucci. I
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: mean it's beautiful, beautiful store, chandeliers in the bathroom. Sure. Yeah,

• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: had a whole chandelier discussion. Oh yeah, yeah, it has
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: been amazing and I do appreciate the guidance that Mike
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: has given me and so many other entrepreneurs too that
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: want to be in this space. He's not hoarding the information.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 1: That's why Fearless Beauty is an important book for people
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: to read, because he has everything in that book that's
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: you need to know to start a beauty business. Yeah,
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: for sure, I didn't hold anything back like my failures.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 1: I talk about it being absolutely broke, horrible credit score,
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: you know everything. It's like a lot of people are
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 1: in that position, especially right now coming in you know,

  Speaker 1: take to Yeah, yeah, there's it's definitely. It's definitely there.

• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: things I talk about in the book where you know,

• 1:23:44
  Speaker 1: the breakfast Club, the breakfast Club, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne,
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get to
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: the room. Let's talk, Dominique Wilkins. She's spilling the tea.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 1: This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Well, Atlanta Hawks vice president of the NBA
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: Hall of Famer Dominique Wilkins spoke to Don Lemon about
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: what happened to him at a restaurant in Buckhead where
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: he was not allowed in because of discrimination and the
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: dress code. Here's what he said happened. They looked me
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: up and down again. They said, we don't have any
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 1: reservations available. And I'm looking outside this lunch time one
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: o'clock and there's a ton of tables outside that's empty.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: I'm dressed better than most of the guys that was
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 1: in there, very ship dress, had a nice bull of
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: the shirt, long cargo, black pants, but nice sneakers. Now
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 1: to the left of men, there were three white guys
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: coming in with shorts, t shirts and sneakers, and they said,
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: give me a minute. We'll seat you in a second.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: And I said, well, this doesn't make sense. You got
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 1: away the table and you can't say we don't have
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 1: anything available. And he said, you know, we're trying to
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: keep a level of elegance in a restaurant, so we
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 1: can't seat you at all. Oho. That's when he should
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: have left, okay, because all the elegance would have left
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: with Dominique Wilkins. How you how you front on the
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: goat Dominique Wilkins in Atlanta. I like that he brought
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 1: attention to it. The restaurant is called lay Bill Bouque,
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: and sometimes lay Bill bouka. I don't think that's right,
