- 1:41Speaker 1: I canceled, had to had to had to drive back
- 1:44Speaker 1: six and a half, six and a half hours. You
- 1:46Speaker 1: should do that every week. It brought back a lot
- 1:51Speaker 1: of memories because you know, driving from the Carolina sometimes

- 2:07Speaker 1: drive over that bridge. What's that Chester people? Chestpe Bay Bridge? Yes,
- 2:10Speaker 1: and the and the and the wind blowing absolutely, because
- 2:16Speaker 1: because they say trucks will be flipping over some time

- 2:20Speaker 1: hours or something like that saves your hour in like
- 2:22Speaker 1: twenty minutes. Yes, that's where my night was last night.
- 2:25Speaker 1: So I got back to New Jersey round three three
- 2:29Speaker 1: thirty in the morning at home run three thirty in
- 2:31Speaker 1: the morning. That used to be the trip I used

- 2:35Speaker 1: back home to the crib. And it was like six
- 2:36Speaker 1: six and a half hours. But you would get your
- 2:38Speaker 1: best music in. You just turn on your your favorite
- 2:41Speaker 1: albums and that way you can listen to a full album.
- 2:43Speaker 1: It was. It was the best because the radio station
- 2:45Speaker 1: has changed so much between VA in New York. So
- 2:48Speaker 1: you you listen to your radio. You ride out and
- 2:50Speaker 1: and try not to speed too much because the cops
- 2:52Speaker 1: they are are a little crazy. And in Virginia, you know,

- 3:04Speaker 1: driver flute. A young woman named Sean dropped on a
- 3:06Speaker 1: club moss for Sean and and and she got us

- 4:44Speaker 1: five Yo stream that album today, all right as well
- 4:48Speaker 1: her albums out today. Shout the coin lay as well.
- 4:50Speaker 1: But let's get into front page news where we're starting. Well,
- 4:55Speaker 1: two more black coaches have joined black Brian floor as
- 4:58Speaker 1: his discrimination lawsuit against the NFL. They both have significant
- 5:02Speaker 1: NFL experience, and they accused the league and its teams
- 5:05Speaker 1: of discrimination and paying lip service to minority hiring rules. Now,
- 5:11Speaker 1: this is all involving the little gation of former Miami
- 5:13Speaker 1: Dolphins head coach Brian Flores. He's now joined by Stephen Wilkes,
- 5:16Speaker 1: who's a former head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, and
- 5:19Speaker 1: Ray Horton, who was most recently the defensive backs coach
- 5:22Speaker 1: for the team now known as the Washington Commanders. Wilkes
- 5:26Speaker 1: was in charge in Arizona in twenty eighteen, and he
- 5:29Speaker 1: was discriminated against by the Arizona Cardinals, he says, by
- 5:32Speaker 1: being hired merely as a bridge coach and not given
- 5:35Speaker 1: any meaningful chance to succeed. Arizona replaced Wilkes them with
- 5:39Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury, a former head coach at Texas Tech University
- 5:42Speaker 1: who had no NFL coaching experience. Kingsbury, who was white,
- 5:46Speaker 1: went thirty five and forty and six college seasons and
- 5:50Speaker 1: despite the services of future NFL star Patrick Mahomes, that's
- 5:54Speaker 1: what his record was. The Cardinals had become a playoff
- 5:57Speaker 1: contender under Kingsbury and Kyler Murray. Now, according to Horton,
- 6:02Speaker 1: he was the defensive coordinator of the Tennessee Titans when
- 6:05Speaker 1: he alleges he was put through a sham interview for
- 6:08Speaker 1: the head job in Nashville to satisfy the Rooney Rule,
- 6:11Speaker 1: which is a requirement to interview minority candidates. He said
- 6:14Speaker 1: he was at home in Phoenix when he was called
- 6:16Speaker 1: on January fifteen, twenty sixteen, and told to board a
- 6:19Speaker 1: last second late night flight to Tennessee to meet with
- 6:21Speaker 1: Amy Adams Strunk, who was the controlling owner of the Titans,
- 6:24Speaker 1: to interview for the head coaching spot. He said, the
- 6:28Speaker 1: ownership there and her family came in and told them
- 6:31Speaker 1: he was going to be the head coach before they
- 6:32Speaker 1: went through the Rooney rule, and so he said, I
- 6:35Speaker 1: sat there knowing im as a head coach in twenty sixteen,
- 6:37Speaker 1: as they went through this fake hiring process, knowing a
- 6:39Speaker 1: lot of the coaches they were interviewing, knowing how much
- 6:41Speaker 1: they prepared to go through those interviews, knowing that everything
- 6:45Speaker 1: they could do and had no chance of getting that job.
- 6:47Speaker 1: You know they're saying now that that was just a
- 6:51Speaker 1: fake interview. Yeah. I mean it's tough with that, with
- 6:56Speaker 1: the Rooney rule, right, because if a team doesn't want
- 6:58Speaker 1: to hire you, but then they have to, it's kind
- 7:01Speaker 1: of isn't like they're pandering to you just to just
- 7:03Speaker 1: to make sure to interview you, interview just to make
- 7:06Speaker 1: sure it's okay for the league. Wonder and I wonder
- 7:09Speaker 1: how you prove that it's a fake interview. Yeah, I'd
- 7:12Speaker 1: sometimes they already know who they're hiring, So imagine they
- 7:15Speaker 1: already know, and then they call you in for an
- 7:17Speaker 1: interview last minute because they have to, and then remember
- 7:20Speaker 1: that any wasn't there a text message that went out
- 7:22Speaker 1: to Brian Flores congratulating him for the job. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 7:27Speaker 1: I wonder how many jobs feel like that. I wonder
- 7:29Speaker 1: how many jobs do interviews with people but they already
- 7:31Speaker 1: know in their mind, who really really want It's like
- 7:33Speaker 1: a waste of time, right, like why haven't you come
- 7:35Speaker 1: up here and give him a spiel? But then I'm
- 7:37Speaker 1: sure maybe a couple of times they thought they had
- 7:39Speaker 1: somebody and somebody and pressed them to the point where
- 7:41Speaker 1: they were like, you know, let's get him a chance.
- 7:42Speaker 1: I doubt it, but you know, I mean, because if
- 7:44Speaker 1: you've got some money on your mind, now you just
- 7:46Speaker 1: interview with me because you have to. You're gonna take
- 7:47Speaker 1: the interview series? Are you really gonna kare? You know?
- 7:50Speaker 1: It's so hard because you know it, right, like you
- 7:52Speaker 1: can you can look at the NFL and see that
- 7:55Speaker 1: there's you know, discrimination, you know that, but it's so
- 7:58Speaker 1: hard to prove correct Yeah, you know, yeah, I mean,
- 8:02Speaker 1: I guess the only way is if other people who
- 8:05Speaker 1: were being interviewed to come forward and say you know,
- 8:08Speaker 1: I already knew I had the job, and they were
- 8:10Speaker 1: still high interviewing other people for the position just to
- 8:14Speaker 1: satisfy this rule, or maybe checking emails. Who knows if
- 8:18Speaker 1: anybody would say, that's not gonna happen noway, because then
- 8:20Speaker 1: you black ball, you boxed out. That's right, all right,
- 8:24Speaker 1: Well that is your front page news, all right. Get
- 8:26Speaker 1: it off your chests eight hundred five eight five one
- 8:29Speaker 1: oh five one. If you need to vent fun line
- 8:31Speaker 1: to wide open again. Eight hundred five eight five one
- 8:33Speaker 1: oh five one. Get it off your chest. It's the
- 8:35Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up.
- 8:45Speaker 1: If you're trying to get it off your chest or blast,
- 8:49Speaker 1: we want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club. Hello,
- 8:52Speaker 1: this I do want to disston to doctor New Jersey.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Good morning God, Breakfast Club. This is just getting out again.
- 9:00Speaker 1: What's your opinion? We have ten year old girls and
- 9:03Speaker 1: boys now watching poorn, googling the website and watching it. Now.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Don't you have been watching it? But now they're introducing
- 9:11Speaker 1: me a little dunger cousins to watch it. So what
- 9:14Speaker 1: age would we be allowing these kids? I mean, I
- 9:17Speaker 1: don't agree. I don't think a ten year old boy
- 9:19Speaker 1: or girl. But I was sold boys started this age,
- 9:21Speaker 1: you know, So I don't know. But I just don't
- 9:23Speaker 1: a great So I just like to know what we
- 9:25Speaker 1: you know what the rest of these these country or
- 9:28Speaker 1: you guys came about the age group that should be
- 9:31Speaker 1: watching porn. Well, I got parental control on the iPads
- 9:34Speaker 1: and their phone, so they can't go to a lot
- 9:36Speaker 1: of those sites. Or my kids don't have phones. My
- 9:38Speaker 1: young kids don't have so phones. They got iPads, but
- 9:40Speaker 1: I have parental controls and then I limit the amount
- 9:42Speaker 1: of time they can use. So I mean, you gotta
- 9:45Speaker 1: monitor your kids. But it's hard because I remember the
- 9:48Speaker 1: first time I've seen porn when I was young. It
- 9:51Speaker 1: was at my friend's house. Her dad had some takes
- 9:54Speaker 1: and so that's how I've seen it. So I just
- 9:57Speaker 1: feel like, you know, you gotta have conversations with your
- 10:00Speaker 1: kids when they're old enough. But Cassandra, your question is
- 10:03Speaker 1: flawed from the start because you said when do you
- 10:05Speaker 1: allow your kids? I don't think you ever allow your kids.
- 10:10Speaker 1: It's time, it's time. Secondly, I want to talk about
- 10:14Speaker 1: the mayor of Clark, how he made these racist remark
- 10:18Speaker 1: but how how you and then you apologize a lot
- 10:21Speaker 1: of times when they make the remarks and they apologize,
- 10:23Speaker 1: obviously you meant to stay. You are six time term
- 10:27Speaker 1: mayor and Clark is a very racist town, one of
- 10:29Speaker 1: the racist towns in New Jersey, because New Jersey is
- 10:32Speaker 1: most one of the most racist states. So he apologized,
- 10:35Speaker 1: but you meant that because that town is so racist
- 10:38Speaker 1: even down to they motive, uh, their violations for coming through.
- 10:41Speaker 1: The motor vehicle violations is the fees was just astronomical,
- 10:46Speaker 1: It's crazy. And then the diversity. When we talk about diversities,
- 10:49Speaker 1: you can also talk about the NFL and the diversity.
- 10:52Speaker 1: A lot of these in these companies kill me when
- 10:54Speaker 1: they talk about diversity, but diversity is never in the
- 10:57Speaker 1: main area. Like I talked about the waterfront back New
- 11:00Speaker 1: Jerseys how phoebe story. He talks about diversity, but it's
- 11:04Speaker 1: no diversity on the commission, on the board, on the
- 11:06Speaker 1: board in the wait. When they talk about diversity, they
- 11:12Speaker 1: don't don't they have like another book like a Latino
- 11:14Speaker 1: or Chinese, but no black. They don't have no black
- 11:18Speaker 1: on these most important boys. So how is that diversity? Right?
- 11:21Speaker 1: Thank you? He's absolutely right, Hello, who's this? You know?
- 11:26Speaker 1: This is DJ rob you og? I want a girl
- 11:37Speaker 1: with extensions in their hair, bamboo air rings at least
- 11:40Speaker 1: two pair offend thee bag, and a bad attitude. That's
- 11:44Speaker 1: all I need to get me in a good move.
- 11:46Speaker 1: You're married. I got you. I got you. But you're married.
- 11:49Speaker 1: That sounds good. You're doing better. You're catching it manly, Charlottagne.

- 13:57Speaker 1: a performing art student into the ann and man, when
- 14:01Speaker 1: I tell you, when you go to look at actors access,
- 14:04Speaker 1: it is nothing but AA's for white females or white
- 14:07Speaker 1: elderly females, and it's rarely anything for Black females. And
- 14:11Speaker 1: it is so hard at getting this industry. And I
- 14:16Speaker 1: as like, um, basically actors access. It's what they categorize
- 14:21Speaker 1: it as, so you'll have it for like white females
- 14:24Speaker 1: of a certain age or Black females of a certain
- 14:26Speaker 1: age or males either or And compared to the amount
- 14:30Speaker 1: that you see for Black women, it is terrible, absolutely
- 14:34Speaker 1: horrible enough to mention the competition out there for Black
- 14:38Speaker 1: women because of how many will will we actually get right?
- 14:42Speaker 1: It's such a limited pool of opportunities available, very much
- 14:47Speaker 1: so compared to our counterparts. Absolutely what's your Instagram page

- 17:35Speaker 1: You yes, imagine missing out on a Drake collaboration because
- 17:39Speaker 1: your boyfriend was jealous. But tell you who has that story?
- 17:42Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into that next. Don't move. It's
- 17:44Speaker 1: the breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast Club. It's about
- 17:55Speaker 1: the rumor report the breakfast Club. Well, now I see
- 18:01Speaker 1: why they said. Coyleer does not want to talk about
- 18:03Speaker 1: her dad and interviews. She wrote a series of tweets
- 18:07Speaker 1: calling out her father, who claims and she claims that
- 18:10Speaker 1: he's been threatening her and her mom because she called
- 18:13Speaker 1: him broke. She said, I hate to bring this ish
- 18:15Speaker 1: to social media, but my father need help. Sorry if
- 18:17Speaker 1: I offended you on the breakfast club, but don't treat
- 18:20Speaker 1: me or my mom because you hate to admit that
- 18:22Speaker 1: we went broke after the source, she said, build an
- 18:25Speaker 1: effing bridge and get over it. That's why I don't
- 18:27Speaker 1: even like mentioning his name. That's why I never mentioned
- 18:29Speaker 1: his name coming into this industry, because he can't get
- 18:31Speaker 1: over his past and don't even realize how much he's
- 18:34Speaker 1: damaging when he does this stuff. He's texting my mom,
- 18:36Speaker 1: threatening her, talking about some watch grow up. You was
- 18:39Speaker 1: just trying to get her to do growing up hip hop.
- 18:41Speaker 1: We don't want that life. She's trying to be here
- 18:43Speaker 1: for me and support me, while you're trying to find
- 18:45Speaker 1: every way to beef with me and suck the life
- 18:47Speaker 1: out of me. I'm tired. The devil is working. This
- 18:50Speaker 1: is a perfect example. When everything is going so good,
- 18:53Speaker 1: here he comes being weird, trying to f up somebody's life.
- 18:56Speaker 1: I'm your only effing daughter. You worried about being called
- 18:58Speaker 1: broke on the day of my day abut album. You
- 19:01Speaker 1: ain't even text me congratulations. You so bitter and evil.
- 19:03Speaker 1: I'm a pray for you. And here is the part
- 19:06Speaker 1: of the interview that. I guess he didn't like. My
- 19:10Speaker 1: dad is a great is a great you know man,
- 19:13Speaker 1: and I love him, you know, regardless of our differences,
- 19:16Speaker 1: He's still my father. I got to respect him, right.
- 19:18Speaker 1: And Dad's no Dad's guys get a little too crazy
- 19:21Speaker 1: and over excited. Yeah, so you know, me and my
- 19:25Speaker 1: dad are still building our relationship. I don't want to argue,
- 19:28Speaker 1: I don't want to nothing. And I was just so excited.
- 19:31Speaker 1: I'm like, yo, Dad, like, don't worry. You feel me
- 19:33Speaker 1: Like my father came in this game. And as I'm learning,
- 19:36Speaker 1: as I'm getting older, I'm learning a lot more about
- 19:39Speaker 1: what he brought because I really don't know too much,
- 19:42Speaker 1: but I'm learning more and I feel him and I
- 19:46Speaker 1: understand him, and I just want to be able to
- 19:47Speaker 1: be like yo, like I got you like. And I
- 19:50Speaker 1: guess at some point she said that she said they
- 19:53Speaker 1: were broke. Yeah, I thought of the part what she said.
- 19:55Speaker 1: People think she grew up with a silver spoon, but
- 19:57Speaker 1: correct around nine years old. I guess when they lost
- 20:00Speaker 1: the sauce and she said they were broke for a
- 20:02Speaker 1: little bit, broke, don't and I don't know. I don't
- 20:04Speaker 1: think it's wrong with that I mean people go through
- 20:06Speaker 1: ups and downs. I mean, I've been broke before. I'm
- 20:09Speaker 1: sure Sean Lemagne was broke. I don't know about yourselfie,
- 20:10Speaker 1: but I've been in situations where I was broke. But
- 20:12Speaker 1: the thing is, which which what I don't like? And
- 20:15Speaker 1: I can't tell her father how to feel or daughter
- 20:17Speaker 1: how to feel. Is She spoke nothing but positive about
- 20:19Speaker 1: him the whole interview. She was like, I respect him,
- 20:21Speaker 1: I love him. You know we don't have the best relationship,
- 20:24Speaker 1: but we're working on it. And I know sometimes ben Zino,
- 20:26Speaker 1: I know we haven't had the best relationship up here,
- 20:28Speaker 1: but sometimes you gotta get out your way and really
- 20:30Speaker 1: support your daughter. Like there's that's small things like you
- 20:33Speaker 1: don't want to look up ten years down the line
- 20:34Speaker 1: and you're like, damn, I don't have that relationship. Off
- 20:36Speaker 1: for bull crap, off for something stupid, Off for something
- 20:39Speaker 1: very small. I thought she was very positive and I
- 20:42Speaker 1: don't think she was trying to say anything to be offensive. Now,
- 20:44Speaker 1: he posted on social media to whom this made concern,
- 20:47Speaker 1: the legends don't play the back, they set the standards.
- 20:50Speaker 1: Thank you, my brothers, see the God in envy for
- 20:52Speaker 1: sticking up for me and not letting a false narrative
- 20:55Speaker 1: of who I am and what I've accomplished happened. I
- 20:57Speaker 1: put in too much work in the culture. The problem
- 20:59Speaker 1: with this so your generation is they have no respect
- 21:02Speaker 1: or regard for who came before them and how they
- 21:03Speaker 1: laid the blueprint for them to be successful. I always
- 21:06Speaker 1: revered those who came before me, and I am grateful
- 21:08Speaker 1: to the legends of hip hop. I don't think that
- 21:11Speaker 1: had anything to do with you know what she said,
- 21:13Speaker 1: And he said, I'm tired of this old talk. Hip
- 21:15Speaker 1: hop is over forty years old, and the one who
- 21:17Speaker 1: appeal to older and younger will be the most successful.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Anyone who thinks that because you're in your forties and fifties,
- 21:22Speaker 1: you should just go sit in a rocking chair and
- 21:24Speaker 1: still don't live out and pursue their dreams and aspirations
- 21:27Speaker 1: are idiots. All you young people who are in their
- 21:30Speaker 1: twenties and successful at rapping, chances are you still will
- 21:33Speaker 1: be rapping in your fifties. Period. When the younger generation
- 21:35Speaker 1: starts listening more and respect the older before them is
- 21:38Speaker 1: when life will be better and our entire culture will
- 21:40Speaker 1: be better. Yeah, I don't know Venzino personally. But the
- 21:44Speaker 1: reality is you can never take away what somebody has done.
- 21:46Speaker 1: Like the Source meant something, the culture was, it was
- 21:49Speaker 1: an institution. We still use the five migrating system and
- 21:52Speaker 1: casual conversation. Now he's people will say he's gonna know
- 21:56Speaker 1: he's a legend for that Source magazine. What they created
- 21:58Speaker 1: him and Dave May is created. You can't take that back.
- 22:00Speaker 1: And it's set the tune for a lot of things
- 22:01Speaker 1: in hip hop. And I don't think Coila Ray was
- 22:03Speaker 1: saying that you shouldn't do music if you're older. I
- 22:06Speaker 1: think she was saying that the older people need to
- 22:08Speaker 1: give the younger people a chance too. I don't think
- 22:11Speaker 1: she was saying not to listen. You know. It's interesting though,
- 22:14Speaker 1: I think Nino's concerned about his legacy, which I can understand,
- 22:18Speaker 1: but also I remember that Coilarey is part of his
- 22:21Speaker 1: legacy as well. Absolutely all right, And I don't think
- 22:25Speaker 1: this is necessarily I think you have to separate being
- 22:29Speaker 1: a dad from being a legend, right because she's saying
- 22:33Speaker 1: she wants to do things, and she has been doing
- 22:35Speaker 1: a lot of things on her own, and so step
- 22:38Speaker 1: back as a father and let her do her thing,
- 22:40Speaker 1: But that doesn't mean you have to step back from
- 22:43Speaker 1: what it is that you brought to the game. They
- 22:45Speaker 1: have a different sort of relationship, and I get with
- 22:47Speaker 1: what a lot of younger artists were saying. I remember
- 22:49Speaker 1: coming up at as a DJ. I used to hate
- 22:51Speaker 1: the older DJs and the older artis because I felt
- 22:54Speaker 1: like they never supported or open the doors. That's why
- 22:57Speaker 1: when it comes to whatever I do, I like to
- 22:59Speaker 1: have the conversations, whether it's with little Dirk or Offset,
- 23:02Speaker 1: or a CARDI or a little baby, if I can
- 23:04Speaker 1: help them get into real estate or get to things
- 23:07Speaker 1: which I couldn't do, I try to help. I don't
- 23:09Speaker 1: I don't want to charge nobody. I just want them
- 23:10Speaker 1: to win. I want everybody to win, like and I
- 23:13Speaker 1: also want to I do want to young people to
- 23:15Speaker 1: know that you're gonna be old and much lost. Be young. Yeah,
- 23:17Speaker 1: how I say young, it's so fleeting have fun in
- 23:20Speaker 1: that pocket, but it's really just the pocket, Like it's
- 23:22Speaker 1: really a short period of time that you're gonna be young,
- 23:25Speaker 1: and you know when you realize that when you get old.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, But I think she was just saying, give
- 23:30Speaker 1: us a little bit of support and shine. That's all.
- 23:32Speaker 1: She wasn't saying, no one should get old, you shouldn't
- 23:35Speaker 1: do music because you're older. She was just saying, And
- 23:37Speaker 1: a lot of younger artists who say this, they don't
- 23:39Speaker 1: like the fact that people feel like, oh, you gotta
- 23:41Speaker 1: do this, you gotta do that. Oh we don't listen
- 23:43Speaker 1: to that type of music. That's not for me. And
- 23:45Speaker 1: somebody sells support, but nobody said that, like and I
- 23:48Speaker 1: know a lot of times people get sensitive, like even
- 23:50Speaker 1: with Charlemagne, says Charlemagne says, I like a couple of
- 23:53Speaker 1: records and a couple of dot but that's all the artists.
- 23:55Speaker 1: That's younger artists. That's it doesn't matter. I listened to
- 23:58Speaker 1: some whole records and there's somebody like I listened to also,
- 24:01Speaker 1: you know what I mean, also envy by the way,
- 24:03Speaker 1: you know who else says that young people? Yes, it's
- 24:07Speaker 1: young people who say that that may not be for me,
- 24:10Speaker 1: or I don't like that, or they might just say
- 24:11Speaker 1: that's straight up. It's like, yes, it's all subjective. Music
- 24:15Speaker 1: is just subjective. All right, Well that is your rumor reports. Okay,
- 24:19Speaker 1: thank you, miss ye. Now from Page News. Next, what
- 24:21Speaker 1: we're talking about yes, and let's talk about something historic
- 24:24Speaker 1: that has happened. It's official. We have our first black
- 24:28Speaker 1: woman to sit on the Supreme Court. All right, we'll
- 24:31Speaker 1: get into that next. We're gonna play another five Rio joint.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Shout the Fabio five Yo's album is in stores or
- 24:36Speaker 1: I sit in stores, and that's where you know, you

- 24:54Speaker 1: All right, but here'stu to fire five yo quevo. It's
- 24:57Speaker 1: the breakfast club God Morning, the breakfast Club Mornings. I'll
- 25:00Speaker 1: never be the same. I teamed up with Zyrtech for
- 25:04Speaker 1: this allergy relief message. Springtime brings vibrancy to the air
- 25:08Speaker 1: and pollen, so I take Zyrtech when allergy symptoms start,
- 25:12Speaker 1: save the tissues and live vibrantly with zyrt Tech starts
- 25:15Speaker 1: working at hour one and stay strong day after day. Morning.
- 25:22Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
- 25:25Speaker 1: are the breakfast club. All right, let's get to some
- 25:28Speaker 1: front page news. But we're starting easy. Well, the tenant
- 25:32Speaker 1: has confirmed that Katangi Brown Jackson will be the first
- 25:35Speaker 1: black woman to sit on the Supreme Court. I was
- 25:38Speaker 1: watching the two I kept hearing all these days. Well,
- 25:41Speaker 1: I was watching day Nay when they were calling out
- 25:43Speaker 1: the names. But here is Kamala Harris actually announcing the
- 25:47Speaker 1: news on this vote. The a's are fifty three, the
- 25:51Speaker 1: names are forty seven, and this nomination is confirmed in
- 25:58Speaker 1: the face, All right. South Carolina Republican Senator Tim Scott
- 26:02Speaker 1: was trending after this. He was among the forty seven
- 26:05Speaker 1: who voted against confirming Katanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court.
- 26:09Speaker 1: If you look on Twitter to see why he's trend in,
- 26:11Speaker 1: you can see what people are saying. There are three
- 26:14Speaker 1: black men in the US Senate. One of them, Tim Scott,
- 26:16Speaker 1: voted no on confirming just Katanji Brown Jackson to the
- 26:19Speaker 1: Supreme Court. There is always one of us. Another person said,
- 26:22Speaker 1: only eleven black people have served in the US Senate.
- 26:24Speaker 1: Tim Scott is the only one who can say he
- 26:26Speaker 1: opposed the nomination of the first black women to the
- 26:29Speaker 1: Supreme Court. That's embarrassing. Well, that's because Tim Scott wanted
- 26:33Speaker 1: a judge Michelle Childs who was a black woman from
- 26:36Speaker 1: South Carolina. Like, that's where he wanted to be the
- 26:38Speaker 1: Supreme Court pick. All right. Now here is Senator Chuch
- 26:43Speaker 1: Schumer on Katanji's nomination. It is just an amazing day.
- 26:47Speaker 1: If I had to think of an adjective to describe
- 26:49Speaker 1: all all of us, it would be elated. This has
- 26:51Speaker 1: been a long, hard road as we try to get
- 26:55Speaker 1: to greater equality, less bigotry in America. Now. Joe Biden
- 27:01Speaker 1: had said during his twenty twenty presidential campaign that he
- 27:03Speaker 1: was committed to nominating a black woman to the Supreme
- 27:06Speaker 1: Court if elected. He posted Judge Jackson's confirmation was a
- 27:10Speaker 1: historic moment for our nation. We've taken another step toward
- 27:13Speaker 1: making our highest court reflected diversity of America. She will
- 27:16Speaker 1: be an incredible justice and I was honored to share
- 27:19Speaker 1: this moment with her and the two hundred and thirty
- 27:21Speaker 1: three year history of the Supreme Court. By the way,
- 27:23Speaker 1: we have never had a black woman hold the title
- 27:25Speaker 1: of justice. Kautanzi Brown Jackson will be the first, and hopefully,
- 27:30Speaker 1: as it should be, there will be many more to come,
- 27:33Speaker 1: so let's make sure that that happens. But yes, it
- 27:36Speaker 1: is historic. She'll be sworn in after Justice Stephen Bryer
- 27:40Speaker 1: retires sometime this summer. Until then, she'll remain in her
- 27:42Speaker 1: current position on the US Court of Appeals. Yes, it's
- 27:46Speaker 1: a very, very historic pick. You know, Joe Biden definitely
- 27:49Speaker 1: fulfilled a campaign promise that he made to you og,
- 27:52Speaker 1: Jim Clyde Burne in many others. And I love how
- 27:55Speaker 1: happy this pick makes so many black women. But we
- 27:57Speaker 1: still have to be realistic about the fact that the
- 28:00Speaker 1: Supreme Court is still a six three conservative majority. And
- 28:04Speaker 1: I've been saying it and I'll keep saying it. I
- 28:06Speaker 1: personally think Democrats should expand the courts and add four
- 28:10Speaker 1: judge Jacksons. And I don't want us to miss the
- 28:11Speaker 1: opportunity to use this moment to educate people on exactly
- 28:14Speaker 1: what the Supreme Court is and how there are major
- 28:16Speaker 1: issues on the table that they are talking about overturning,
- 28:19Speaker 1: like voting rights and roll versus wage. So, you know,
- 28:22Speaker 1: celebrate for two seconds and then let people know the
- 28:25Speaker 1: reality of what we are facing with that damn six
- 28:28Speaker 1: three conservative majority in the Supreme Court. All right in
- 28:30Speaker 1: the metaverse. Where is it going next? Well, according to
- 28:33Speaker 1: the New York Post, they're getting ready to create their
- 28:35Speaker 1: own payment system and currency. They said, Meta is getting
- 28:39Speaker 1: ready to introduce introduce payment tokens, which they're calling zuckbucks.
- 28:44Speaker 1: So it won't be cryptocurrency, but an inn app currency
- 28:47Speaker 1: that's managed and controlled by Meta like Mark Zuckerberg. Yeah,
- 28:52Speaker 1: zack bucks, that's what they're callingbucks, the rodblocks coins, social tokens. Yeah,
- 28:57Speaker 1: you can only use it in there, zuckbucks. If I'm
- 29:02Speaker 1: using for prostitution, they're called suck bucks, while you can
- 29:05Speaker 1: say the f bucks. No. If I'm just saying, because
- 29:08Speaker 1: that's what's gonna happen, right, you know it's going with
- 29:10Speaker 1: the currency evolves, people are gonna start using these things
- 29:13Speaker 1: for nefarious means like prostitution in the metaverse. I'm sure
- 29:18Speaker 1: if you want to like buy a car, or paint
- 29:20Speaker 1: your house or change your clothes, you have to use
- 29:22Speaker 1: the zuck bucks or you know, if you want to
- 29:24Speaker 1: put in your mind, if you think there ain't gonna
- 29:25Speaker 1: be no suck bucks or no f bucks in the metaverse, Okay,
- 29:28Speaker 1: they're gonna be in there. Freaking you ever see those
- 29:30Speaker 1: videos or those people over in Asia with the goggles
- 29:33Speaker 1: on and they'd be like humping the air, wilding. I've
- 29:36Speaker 1: never seen it. Yeah, it's gonna go down. What do
- 29:39Speaker 1: you be watching? Man? All right? Well that America is
- 29:46Speaker 1: not the first country with virtual reality. I didn't say it,
- 29:49Speaker 1: but I don't. I don't google people hump in the
- 29:51Speaker 1: air that send you the video or this grandma and
- 29:54Speaker 1: the grandma had the goggles on and the grandkid walked
- 29:57Speaker 1: in on them, or she was wild If you send
- 29:59Speaker 1: me in that video, Human Resources, I'm time you have
- 30:01Speaker 1: right now. Hey, she was wilding with him vall glasses us.
- 30:04Speaker 1: She was doing something to a ghost wanted to two.
- 30:08Speaker 1: All right, Well, when we come back, the Secretary of
- 30:10Speaker 1: Transportation Pete booda judge will be joining us and we'll
- 30:13Speaker 1: talk to him when we come back, so don't move.

- 30:32Speaker 1: How you feeling feeling great, okay, and you have a
- 30:35Speaker 1: very intense job right now, which we'll get into. But
- 30:37Speaker 1: let's discuss the last time you were here where we
- 30:39Speaker 1: left off. Yeah, I mean then we were still putting
- 30:42Speaker 1: this transportation bill together, thinking about what we could actually
- 30:45Speaker 1: do with it. Now we've put more than fifty billion
- 30:47Speaker 1: dollars in road funding out for road improvements in every
- 30:50Speaker 1: part of the country, bridge funding, transit funding. We just
- 30:53Speaker 1: did that this week, So we're actually doing the things
- 30:55Speaker 1: we came here to do. There's a ton of work
- 30:58Speaker 1: still to come, but it feels good after basically spending
- 31:01Speaker 1: most of the last year just trying to get the
- 31:03Speaker 1: bill through, now we're actually doing the work. You know.
- 31:06Speaker 1: Before we get into the work, I want to talk
- 31:08Speaker 1: to you because I saw that you just had your
- 31:10Speaker 1: twins go to daycare for the first time and your
- 31:12Speaker 1: parents you're not difficult, that is when you gotta dropped
- 31:14Speaker 1: him all. So how difficult was that for you? Yeah,
- 31:16Speaker 1: it was a little. We were doing fine with it
- 31:18Speaker 1: until the last minute. So we got a boy and
- 31:21Speaker 1: a girl, twins. They're about seven to eight months now,
- 31:24Speaker 1: and just as we started to hand her over our
- 31:28Speaker 1: girl over at the daycare, that little lower lip came out.
- 31:33Speaker 1: We call it the Yeah, we call it the chaos
- 31:35Speaker 1: lip because you know, once you see that little pouty lip,
- 31:37Speaker 1: then she's usually pretty upset. But no, they actually did great.
- 31:41Speaker 1: We've got this app now they tell us when I
- 31:43Speaker 1: just got an alert that there was a diaper change,
- 31:45Speaker 1: so you know, I feel like I'm in the know.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Um and uh and they're doing great. Did they have
- 31:50Speaker 1: to have security of cause right, uh, yeah, I won't
- 31:52Speaker 1: get in that too much, but they're they're safe and secure.
- 31:55Speaker 1: How his fatherhood changed you changes everything. I mean it's
- 31:59Speaker 1: first of all, it's hard. I mean it's it's beautiful,
- 32:01Speaker 1: wonderful work. But I've never had a job that demanding.
- 32:04Speaker 1: I mean, you know, especially in the early weeks where
- 32:08Speaker 1: you know, you start your day at three am, when
- 32:10Speaker 1: when Chaston would tap out, we went to kind of
- 32:13Speaker 1: a night's a shift system because um, just the way
- 32:17Speaker 1: they were growing and eating, you kind of had to
- 32:19Speaker 1: be with them almost all the time. And he would
- 32:21Speaker 1: tap out somewhere between two and three in the morning.
- 32:23Speaker 1: Then I'd start my day and I knew that, you know,
- 32:26Speaker 1: being a new dad means you have to get up
- 32:28Speaker 1: in the middle of the night. But I thought that, man,
- 32:30Speaker 1: you'd get up and then you get to go back
- 32:31Speaker 1: to bed afterwards. And a lot of times that that
- 32:34Speaker 1: didn't happen, didn't work that way. Uh, and you know
- 32:36Speaker 1: it's humbling. I mean, you're you know, you're getting puked
- 32:39Speaker 1: on routinely, and uh, you know, it's it's a little
- 32:41Speaker 1: different from most of what goes on in your day
- 32:44Speaker 1: as a cabinet member. But we know it's great, and
- 32:47Speaker 1: you know, all the cliches come true, right. You think
- 32:49Speaker 1: about the future more, Um, you think about what advantaged more. Yeah, absolutely,
- 32:54Speaker 1: I mean, uh, just getting them into daycare was was
- 32:58Speaker 1: you know, um, one big step for us. But yeah,
- 33:01Speaker 1: you just the whole world looks looks a little bit different.
- 33:03Speaker 1: I think about what it'll be like when they're uh,
- 33:06Speaker 1: you know, old enough to get a job or go
- 33:09Speaker 1: to college, and that that's not that far off. And
- 33:13Speaker 1: the decisions we're making right now, especially on things like
- 33:15Speaker 1: climate but the economy, all of it is going to
- 33:18Speaker 1: shape how they're going to do. So yeah, I guess
- 33:21Speaker 1: I sound like every other parent, but now I feel
- 33:23Speaker 1: it in a different way. The difference that you're in
- 33:25Speaker 1: a position to actually shape the future though, So how
- 33:28Speaker 1: did that impact you are? Yeah, well, I think about it.
- 33:31Speaker 1: You know, when they're when they're going about their lives,
- 33:33Speaker 1: they're going to be you know, riding or driving on
- 33:36Speaker 1: the roads and bridges that that I'm working on building
- 33:39Speaker 1: right now. Right They're going to be taking the subways
- 33:41Speaker 1: that that that we're funding right now and so, and
- 33:45Speaker 1: they're going to breathe be breathing air that we either
- 33:48Speaker 1: make cleaner or fail to make cleaner based on the
- 33:50Speaker 1: work we're doing right now. So yeah, I mean, it's
- 33:53Speaker 1: it makes everything a lot more personal, especially in an
- 33:56Speaker 1: in transportation infrastructure, because it's long term, right. I Mean,
- 33:58Speaker 1: there's there's stuff we're doing to make sure that we
- 34:01Speaker 1: get through the season or get through the year, but
- 34:03Speaker 1: most of what you do in transportation infrastructure is is
- 34:06Speaker 1: very much about the long, long term. You're planning through
- 34:09Speaker 1: the twenty twenties to make sure the twenty thirties and
- 34:12Speaker 1: the twenty forties go well. And your relationship to what's
- 34:15Speaker 1: going on in the twenty forties and beyond is now
- 34:18Speaker 1: you know, it's through your children. You're you're raising your children,
- 34:21Speaker 1: but you're also raising your replacements. How it works and
- 34:27Speaker 1: trying to save the world because not only will be
- 34:30Speaker 1: thinking about climate change, but we're thinking about economics now
- 34:32Speaker 1: to but the war that's going on with Russia and Ukraine,
- 34:36Speaker 1: and then having to worry about gas prices and people
- 34:38Speaker 1: not being able to afford that, but then on top
- 34:40Speaker 1: of it climate change. Yeah, and so what are some
- 34:43Speaker 1: things that our front and center for you when it
- 34:45Speaker 1: comes to that. I Mean, the biggest thing I see
- 34:46Speaker 1: happening with climate change is we're out of the period
- 34:49Speaker 1: where it was something that people were arguing over whether
- 34:52Speaker 1: it might happen or what's going to happen in the
- 34:54Speaker 1: future someday. It is now right, even just looking at
- 34:58Speaker 1: it from a transportation person effective last year, they had
- 35:01Speaker 1: to shut down transit in the Northwest in Oregon right
- 35:05Speaker 1: because there was a heat wave that wasn't even considered
- 35:09Speaker 1: meteorologically possible until it happened. There were, i mean, the cables.
- 35:15Speaker 1: They had to shut it down because they were the
- 35:16Speaker 1: cables might melt in the heat. There was a stretch
- 35:21Speaker 1: of highway that I saw in Colorado where first wildfires
- 35:24Speaker 1: came through. That happens more and more often with climate change.
- 35:27Speaker 1: Then you had extreme rainfall, very extreme rainfall, like the
- 35:30Speaker 1: kind of thing that should only happen every five hundred
- 35:32Speaker 1: two a thousand years, except it keeps happening. Those two
- 35:35Speaker 1: things combined meant that all of this, all of the
- 35:39Speaker 1: vegetation had burned off, and so all of the mud
- 35:41Speaker 1: on the hillside wasn't held together by the roots of
- 35:45Speaker 1: the vegetation, so it slid onto the highway and it
- 35:48Speaker 1: took two weeks to clear up. The highway was turned
- 35:51Speaker 1: into a supply chain problem. So I guess my point
- 35:53Speaker 1: is these effects of climate change are right now. But
- 35:55Speaker 1: the other thing that exists right now is some of
- 35:58Speaker 1: the solutions. This big report from the the UN panel
- 36:02Speaker 1: came out last week or I think this week, saying
- 36:05Speaker 1: we're running out of time. It's it's worse than we thought.
- 36:10Speaker 1: But also the solutions include technologies that exist right now.
- 36:13Speaker 1: That's why I talk about electric vehicles all the time,
- 36:16Speaker 1: not that that's the cure all, but it's a really
- 36:18Speaker 1: important piece of it. And by the way, good old
- 36:21Speaker 1: fashioned transit is a piece of it. If people have
- 36:23Speaker 1: a choice, an alternative to having to drive to get
- 36:27Speaker 1: where they're they're going, depending where they live, that helps. So,
- 36:30Speaker 1: you know, climate change is something where transportation is being impacted,
- 36:33Speaker 1: transportation gets disrupted because of climate change, and where transportation
- 36:37Speaker 1: can be part of the answer. Have you seen a
- 36:39Speaker 1: movie Don't Look Up? Yeah? Yeah. Do you feel like that?
- 36:43Speaker 1: Like they say it's satire, but it's really not to me?
- 36:45Speaker 1: Like you feel like that when it comes to discussing
- 36:47Speaker 1: things like climate change. Yeah, sometimes, And when you get
- 36:49Speaker 1: into these conversations on the hill or with folks who
- 36:52Speaker 1: just don't want to I don't know, they just don't
- 36:55Speaker 1: want to go there there. Look, it makes sense to
- 36:58Speaker 1: discuss all of the problems that we're still trying to solve.
- 37:00Speaker 1: For example, the electric vehicles, right, they're not affordable enough.
- 37:04Speaker 1: It takes a lot of work to get the raw
- 37:05Speaker 1: materials and the minerals that go into them. We got
- 37:07Speaker 1: to build up the charging infrastructure and be ready for that.
- 37:10Speaker 1: Those are real issues. But it's one thing to say
- 37:14Speaker 1: these are some real issues we got to work on,
- 37:15Speaker 1: which is what we're saying. It's another to raise those
- 37:17Speaker 1: issues as an excuse to just keep doing the exact
- 37:20Speaker 1: same thing, the exact same way for as long as
- 37:23Speaker 1: we can get away with it, right, And that's what
- 37:25Speaker 1: that movie reminds me of this idea of just well,
- 37:27Speaker 1: whatever it is, it's too hard and it's too complicated,
- 37:29Speaker 1: We're just not going to deal with it. We're just
- 37:31Speaker 1: going to keep doing the same thing. People to get
- 37:34Speaker 1: electric cars. So a couple of things. One, as we've
- 37:38Speaker 1: proposed tax credits, it would actually literally just bring down
- 37:40Speaker 1: the sticker price. So we think about like these electric
- 37:43Speaker 1: pickup trucks, for example, a lot of Super Bowl Super
- 37:46Speaker 1: Bowl ads about these. They start about forty thousand dollars,
- 37:50Speaker 1: more affordable than people think, but obviously not affordable for
- 37:53Speaker 1: a lot of Americans. If we got the kinds of
- 37:55Speaker 1: tax credits through that we're talking about, basically, it would
- 37:57Speaker 1: take ten to twelve thousand dollars off of that sticker
- 38:00Speaker 1: price and move it into the high twenties. When you
- 38:03Speaker 1: get to that level, even if your car payment is
- 38:06Speaker 1: higher than a regular gas car would have been, you
- 38:09Speaker 1: will come out ahead every month because you'll have less
- 38:12Speaker 1: of a gas bill. You still have to pay to
- 38:13Speaker 1: fill up with electricity, but you pay less than you
- 38:15Speaker 1: would have with gas. And so that is something that
- 38:19Speaker 1: we could do right now if Congress acted to pass
- 38:22Speaker 1: those tax credits to bring the prices down. The other
- 38:24Speaker 1: thing is just the more they get It's like anything,
- 38:26Speaker 1: the more they get produced, the less expensive. Yeah, the
- 38:28Speaker 1: more efficient they are to produce, and you see the
- 38:30Speaker 1: prices come down. So you know, I just not with
- 38:33Speaker 1: a bunch of auto CEOs yesterday. They're all moving in
- 38:35Speaker 1: this direction already. It's going to happen. The question is
- 38:38Speaker 1: will it happen fast enough, will it happen in America,
- 38:42Speaker 1: you know, made in America by American workers most of all,
- 38:45Speaker 1: And will it happen in a way that's affordable they
- 38:47Speaker 1: can reach everybody. Another issue in terms of access is
- 38:50Speaker 1: being able to charge them right. So if you're in
- 38:54Speaker 1: a rural or suburban area, you're in a single family home,
- 38:57Speaker 1: no problem. I mean, you can just plug it in
- 38:58Speaker 1: your garage, even in a regular or wallplug. It's not
- 39:00Speaker 1: the most efficient, but it'll work. But if you're in
- 39:03Speaker 1: a multifamily building, if you're in New York City, if
- 39:05Speaker 1: you're if you're in most urban areas, we need to
- 39:08Speaker 1: plan to make sure that chargers are available. So we're
- 39:11Speaker 1: putting out five billion dollars for the states to work with.
- 39:14Speaker 1: They're going to come in, they need to bring their
- 39:16Speaker 1: plans to us over the summer and then we'll approve
- 39:18Speaker 1: them and that'll set up kind of a highway network
- 39:21Speaker 1: of chargers. And then we have another two and a
- 39:23Speaker 1: half billion dollars for community charging to try to buy
- 39:26Speaker 1: down the cost of setting up chargers at the workplace,
- 39:28Speaker 1: at the apartment building where you know they're starting to
- 39:30Speaker 1: go in now, because you know, you can often have
- 39:33Speaker 1: a profitable business running electric chargers, but it's not quite
- 39:37Speaker 1: penciling out yet. We can do something about that, and
- 39:40Speaker 1: that's one of the things in law, and that's one
- 39:41Speaker 1: of the things we're funding. All right, we have all
- 39:43Speaker 1: with Pete Booda, Judge, Secretary of Transportation. When we come
- 39:45Speaker 1: back is the breakfast Club, Good morning. I think everybody
- 39:48Speaker 1: is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are
- 39:52Speaker 1: to Breakfast Club, was still kicking it with Secretary of
- 39:54Speaker 1: Transportation Pete Boodha Judge Charlomagne. I want to go back
- 39:56Speaker 1: to what you were saying about the movie. Don't look up.
- 39:58Speaker 1: You know, it's hard to get people to mo right,
- 40:00Speaker 1: even with the threat of imminent danger. It's hard to
- 40:03Speaker 1: get people to react. It is. I mean, that's that's
- 40:06Speaker 1: the crazy thing about it. Right, I think because unlike
- 40:10Speaker 1: the plot of Don't Look Up, where it's a you know,
- 40:13Speaker 1: something that's going to happen to us in on a
- 40:14Speaker 1: specific date, this is one of those slow rolling things,
- 40:18Speaker 1: but it's not so slow. And again it's it's not
- 40:20Speaker 1: something we're arguing about whether it's going to happen, it's
- 40:22Speaker 1: it's it's already happening. So why aren't people more focused
- 40:26Speaker 1: on it? Partly, I think because we always are more
- 40:28Speaker 1: aware of holding on to what we've got than preparing
- 40:31Speaker 1: for something that we can't quite see and feel. Partly
- 40:34Speaker 1: because people think it's it's really going to set them back.
- 40:36Speaker 1: So one great thing about the electric vehicles is when
- 40:38Speaker 1: people drive them, they realize they're as good or better
- 40:41Speaker 1: than the gas vehicles. It takes away that that fear
- 40:43Speaker 1: the unknown, but it still seems like something unknown. And
- 40:46Speaker 1: of course part of it also is that, you know,
- 40:48Speaker 1: some people feel that climate change will happen to somebody,
- 40:51Speaker 1: but they're going to be just fine. It's selfish too,
- 40:54Speaker 1: because you're not also thinking about the next generation. You
- 40:56Speaker 1: might think, well, we're alive, it'll be fine, right, Who
- 40:58Speaker 1: cares what happens? Right? And that's another one of those
- 41:00Speaker 1: things where I'm holding by, you know, a little twins
- 41:03Speaker 1: in my arms. You know this is completely going to
- 41:07Speaker 1: shape their lives. But also again, this is not some
- 41:09Speaker 1: far off distant thing, right, I mean, we're talking about
- 41:11Speaker 1: what's going to happen within this decade, including the impact,
- 41:15Speaker 1: and as as so often happens with these issues, a
- 41:19Speaker 1: lot of the most vulnerable people, the people who are
- 41:21Speaker 1: now the most economically vulnerable, are those who stand to
- 41:24Speaker 1: lose the most, and they're not necessarily the ones making
- 41:27Speaker 1: the decisions. Well how come? You know, I think about
- 41:29Speaker 1: that and I hit it, and I receive it and
- 41:31Speaker 1: understand it. But the mid terms of this year, you know,
- 41:35Speaker 1: the next couple of years to be the presidential election year,
- 41:37Speaker 1: it feels like the depth of democracy is right there,
- 41:40Speaker 1: imminent danger, right, But it doesn't feel like people that
- 41:45Speaker 1: are in positions of power, mainly the Democrats, are responding
- 41:48Speaker 1: to it in that way. Well, I think our agenda
- 41:51Speaker 1: is about shoring up our democracy really, yeah, of course,
- 41:54Speaker 1: but also we're operating environment where nobody actually has complete
- 41:58Speaker 1: control of the levers of government. Right. You've got Congress,
- 42:01Speaker 1: you've got the courts, you've got all these state legislatures.
- 42:03Speaker 1: And if there's one big lesson we've seen I think
- 42:06Speaker 1: in the last few years is just how much of
- 42:07Speaker 1: the power when it comes to voting in elections is
- 42:10Speaker 1: in state and even county hands. And I'm not saying
- 42:12Speaker 1: that by way of an excuse. I mean, the administration
- 42:14Speaker 1: should be and is very forward leaning on this, but
- 42:17Speaker 1: it's not as if we're just able to have our
- 42:20Speaker 1: way on everything, right, and that's why the midterms matter.
- 42:23Speaker 1: I also believe that one of the best things we
- 42:25Speaker 1: can do, and maybe this is just based on where
- 42:27Speaker 1: I sit as the Transportation Secretary, but one of the
- 42:30Speaker 1: best things we can do to walk America a little
- 42:32Speaker 1: bit back from this cliff is to just deliver on
- 42:35Speaker 1: the basics. Yes, so that's what transportation is all about. Right.
- 42:40Speaker 1: There really is a question about whether democracies are better
- 42:43Speaker 1: at delivering on the basics or whether authoritarian countries are
- 42:47Speaker 1: better at them. Right. I mean, the argument that China
- 42:50Speaker 1: is basically making is, hey, we have a command and
- 42:53Speaker 1: control system, and we're going to get stuff done faster, cheaper,
- 42:57Speaker 1: and better than in the messy, democratic American way of
- 43:02Speaker 1: doing things. And that's why this moment is a test
- 43:04Speaker 1: even on things as unsexy as you know, how do
- 43:07Speaker 1: you pave the roads and get the subway to run
- 43:09Speaker 1: on time? Right? That's I think very high stakes for
- 43:11Speaker 1: our democracy because if we can show that we can
- 43:13Speaker 1: do it in our messy democratic system, it allows us
- 43:17Speaker 1: to consolidate our sense of democracy is the way to go.
- 43:19Speaker 1: If we can't, there's an alternative out there that is
- 43:22Speaker 1: not the one we want to be dominating the world
- 43:25Speaker 1: right now. And I mean, but Democrats could have the
- 43:27Speaker 1: Powell if you could get everybody on the same page.
- 43:29Speaker 1: Last time you hear, I asked you who's the real president?
- 43:32Speaker 1: You know, Joe Mansion by Joe Biden. Clearly President Biden
- 43:36Speaker 1: is the president, but Joe Mansion has been blocking Biden's
- 43:38Speaker 1: agenda since the last time we've had a conversation. Are
- 43:41Speaker 1: you frustrated with him yet? Look, I'm frustrated anytime we
- 43:44Speaker 1: don't get our way automatically in Congress. But I also
- 43:47Speaker 1: get to it doesn't work that way. And you're talking
- 43:49Speaker 1: about one senator, a senator by the way, who was
- 43:51Speaker 1: Democratic senator from a state that Donald Trump won by
- 43:54Speaker 1: like forty points, and we should be talking about a
- 43:57Speaker 1: hundred senators there's ninety nine other senators too, right, And
- 44:00Speaker 1: there has been unified, uniform Republican opposition to so many
- 44:06Speaker 1: of these things we're trying to do. On the voting
- 44:08Speaker 1: on things like extending the child tax credit. And it's
- 44:13Speaker 1: not even about what's right about black I mean, it
- 44:17Speaker 1: feels like a brick wall, except I will say, on
- 44:20Speaker 1: our transportation bill. Right, So we got eighteen senators to
- 44:24Speaker 1: cross party lines. I mean it's not often that you see,
- 44:27Speaker 1: you know, everybody from from you know, Joe Mansion to
- 44:32Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders to Mitch McConnell kind of agreeing to do something.
- 44:37Speaker 1: It was a little more partisan in the House, but
- 44:39Speaker 1: even there, a lot of a lot of Republican House
- 44:41Speaker 1: members came over. And I think it shows that again,
- 44:44Speaker 1: if you if you can demonstrate that there's a chance
- 44:46Speaker 1: to take care of the basics, you can actually build
- 44:49Speaker 1: some bridges there literally but also politically. Um. But yes, look,
- 44:53Speaker 1: if we're going to talk about frustration with the Congress,
- 44:55Speaker 1: let's talk about how everyone's voting. The insolent thing. Right,
- 44:58Speaker 1: There was a bill to lower the cost of insolent
- 45:03Speaker 1: for Americans and so many, so many legislators voted against it.
- 45:09Speaker 1: And that wasn't It wasn't Democrats that we had the
- 45:11Speaker 1: big problems with them. I agree with all of that,
- 45:14Speaker 1: you know, but I think you know, as a voter,
- 45:16Speaker 1: you know, when I see hundreds of members of Congress
- 45:19Speaker 1: who are Democrats silent, when you see the mansions and
- 45:23Speaker 1: cinemas blocking progress, it makes me wonder is everybody complicit?
- 45:27Speaker 1: So I would say everybody's standing up for what they
- 45:30Speaker 1: think we ought to do in the best way they
- 45:32Speaker 1: know how. And you know, if somebody's holding out on you,
- 45:36Speaker 1: going up to them and poking them in the eye
- 45:38Speaker 1: is probably not going to help you get the result
- 45:40Speaker 1: that you want. There are times that and it's not
- 45:43Speaker 1: just you know, any one senator. There are many times
- 45:46Speaker 1: that have been very frustrated that I was pretty sure
- 45:49Speaker 1: I had the right way to go and somebody was
- 45:51Speaker 1: standing in the way. But the way to maneuver through
- 45:55Speaker 1: that is to try to build not just try to
- 45:58Speaker 1: convince people right, but but but also try to build
- 46:00Speaker 1: the public support that makes it clear that this is
- 46:02Speaker 1: where we got to go. Well, how do you do
- 46:04Speaker 1: that without calling out the pupil out of blocking progress. Well, look,
- 46:07Speaker 1: we can say that's one thing that does very well.
- 46:09Speaker 1: You know, Trump would have had a million nicknames with
- 46:11Speaker 1: mansion in cinema. Yeah. Yeah, But I mean that didn't
- 46:14Speaker 1: necessarily get him his way either, right. It got attention, sure,
- 46:17Speaker 1: I mean it got us all talking about him, But
- 46:20Speaker 1: did it really help move an agenda? I would say,
- 46:22Speaker 1: I mean, you look at what they set out to do,
- 46:24Speaker 1: what they said they were going to They really did
- 46:25Speaker 1: have control of all the all the you know, levers
- 46:28Speaker 1: of power, and they couldn't get rid of Obamacare. For example.
- 46:31Speaker 1: We're just with the President Obama and President Biden this
- 46:33Speaker 1: week celebrating the ACA, and the reason they couldn't get
- 46:37Speaker 1: rid of it, I think is that it had made
- 46:38Speaker 1: such a concrete difference, positive difference in American lives that
- 46:42Speaker 1: America basically wouldn't let them. And uh, you know, we
- 46:46Speaker 1: can vent all we want about this or that member
- 46:49Speaker 1: of Congress is not going along with the thing I
- 46:51Speaker 1: want to do, but in the end, they're passing the laws,
- 46:53Speaker 1: and so we got either work with them or we've
- 46:56Speaker 1: got to use the tools that we have, including executive authority.
- 46:58Speaker 1: And the President is taking a lot of steps the
- 47:00Speaker 1: authority he has right to try to solve the problem
- 47:03Speaker 1: while We're getting the other pieces done, but none of
- 47:05Speaker 1: this matters if we can't deliver. That's why where I'm
- 47:08Speaker 1: getting up in the morning. The main thing I'm thinking
- 47:09Speaker 1: about is how do we make sure we take all
- 47:11Speaker 1: this money, you know, it's one point two trillion dollars,
- 47:13Speaker 1: about half of that is transportation, and actually deliver one
- 47:16Speaker 1: point two trillion dollars worth of value so people believe
- 47:21Speaker 1: in what we're trying to do through this administration, have
- 47:24Speaker 1: some level of trust and government to address problems. If
- 47:27Speaker 1: we can't deliver that, then it'll just keep keep spiraling down.
- 47:32Speaker 1: All right, We have more with Pete Boodha, Judge, Secretary
- 47:34Speaker 1: of Transportation. When we come back. Is the breakfast club,
- 47:36Speaker 1: Good morning morning, everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne,
- 47:41Speaker 1: the guy we are to breakfast club was still kicking
- 47:43Speaker 1: it with Secretary of Transportation, Pete Boodha, Judge Charlomagne, you
- 47:47Speaker 1: do realize, Pete, a lot of black people feel like
- 47:49Speaker 1: Democrats have kept no promises since they've been in since
- 47:52Speaker 1: they've been in office. Really, yes, rebet Alas said that
- 47:55Speaker 1: a million times. I'm sure I'm in pressing you about. Look,
- 47:59Speaker 1: I get it because the work is not done. But
- 48:01Speaker 1: the reason I say really is we just passed one
- 48:04Speaker 1: of the biggest pieces of infrastructure legislation in American history.
- 48:07Speaker 1: It was a promise and it wasn't just a promise
- 48:09Speaker 1: that the Biden Harris administration made or the dust Democrats
- 48:13Speaker 1: made in twenty twenty. This is a promise that every
- 48:16Speaker 1: president and every Congress is made in some way, shape
- 48:18Speaker 1: or form for as long as I've been an adult,
- 48:20Speaker 1: and we actually did it. But those are big, broad
- 48:22Speaker 1: things and that's great. But I'm talking about things like
- 48:24Speaker 1: things that you campaign going, like the George Floyd policing
- 48:27Speaker 1: and effect that our voting rights man like like nineteen
- 48:30Speaker 1: states have implemented boldest depression bills. You know that's going
- 48:32Speaker 1: to directly impact us the most. But the only strategy
- 48:35Speaker 1: Democrats are going to have is we got to go
- 48:37Speaker 1: out there and vote in mass numbers to fight it.
- 48:40Speaker 1: That's that's not a strategy. It's not a strategy. Right.
- 48:44Speaker 1: Mobilization is a strategy, and these tactics that you're talking
- 48:48Speaker 1: about make mobilization harder. And you're absolutely right that work
- 48:52Speaker 1: is not done. That work has to get done, and
- 48:54Speaker 1: it's not acceptable where we are right now. I think
- 48:57Speaker 1: that's true. And you know what really scary is seeing
- 49:01Speaker 1: a lot of women's reproductive rights regressing and LGBTQ community
- 49:07Speaker 1: their rights being taken away stid state right, voting rights
- 49:11Speaker 1: of being taken away state by state. Those things are
- 49:13Speaker 1: scary even in the education system, you know, just not
- 49:16Speaker 1: being able to discuss certain things state by state. That's
- 49:19Speaker 1: a scary thing to me. And it's like we see
- 49:22Speaker 1: it expanding. No, that's right. And so again part of
- 49:25Speaker 1: the answer is organizing at the state level, because in
- 49:28Speaker 1: this country, a lot of the power and a lot
- 49:30Speaker 1: of the decisions are actually at the state level. What's
- 49:32Speaker 1: happening in our schools, what even the way elections are run, right,
- 49:36Speaker 1: that plays out at that level. But look, I don't
- 49:39Speaker 1: think I don't think anyone on our side is satisfied
- 49:42Speaker 1: with how far we've come on whether it's a George
- 49:45Speaker 1: Floyd Policing Act, whether it's it's it's voting rights. What
- 49:48Speaker 1: I'll say is we're pushing for as much as we
- 49:52Speaker 1: can get in terms of results in Congress and taking
- 49:55Speaker 1: whatever executive actions are available to the president. So you
- 49:58Speaker 1: look at the policing side, right for example, actions to
- 50:02Speaker 1: limit these chokeholds, to limit these these kinds of no
- 50:05Speaker 1: knock warrants, to make sure that at least on the
- 50:07Speaker 1: federal side, you have body cameras when when search warrants
- 50:10Speaker 1: are being executed. I know, it's not the whole job
- 50:13Speaker 1: gets not the federal I mean, it's great that you
- 50:14Speaker 1: did it, but it's not the federal police that um
- 50:18Speaker 1: it's Look, it's not that the federal side alone is
- 50:24Speaker 1: where all the work has to be done. But what
- 50:27Speaker 1: you'll see happening is when we have direct authority. And
- 50:31Speaker 1: I say we, I mean, obviously I'm not directly involved,
- 50:34Speaker 1: mostly on the law enforcement piece, but when the administration
- 50:37Speaker 1: has direct authority, then it's going to be used according
- 50:40Speaker 1: to the constitutional powers of the president. When it's indirect,
- 50:43Speaker 1: when you got to go to Congress to get a law,
- 50:45Speaker 1: then you got to go to Congress to get a law.
- 50:47Speaker 1: And we're going to keep pushing. And yes, that's that's
- 50:49Speaker 1: up to up to us as administration, but it's up
- 50:51Speaker 1: to everybody who cares about this in the country to
- 50:53Speaker 1: keep pushing. I know it's supposed to be a slim
- 50:55Speaker 1: down version of the build back better that Congress might
- 50:58Speaker 1: act on before Memorial So we don't know which pieces
- 51:01Speaker 1: are going to make it, but we've we're going to
- 51:04Speaker 1: keep pushing for all of them that we think are good.
- 51:06Speaker 1: And yeah, I think some form of this is going
- 51:08Speaker 1: to move because these are policies we really need, childcare,
- 51:12Speaker 1: prescription drugs, doing something about climate. And if we can't
- 51:15Speaker 1: get everything we wanted, okay, well we'll keep pushing for
- 51:18Speaker 1: the things we didn't get. But we've got to get
- 51:20Speaker 1: as much as we can, and we've got to deliver
- 51:22Speaker 1: because we do. We do have some promises to keep.
- 51:25Speaker 1: I'm proud of the promises we've kept on the transportation side.
- 51:28Speaker 1: I get that we've got more promises to keep. That's
- 51:30Speaker 1: why we're gonna keep pushing. Even with the bill, even
- 51:32Speaker 1: with the slim down version. The headlines already Christen Cinema
- 51:35Speaker 1: is opposed to it, she's not with it, same same
- 51:39Speaker 1: old problem. Look, I don't think it's even been there's
- 51:41Speaker 1: not an it yet right in terms of a final
- 51:43Speaker 1: deal or a package that's been agreed on. But you know,
- 51:47Speaker 1: the way the Senate works is on most things, you
- 51:50Speaker 1: definitely need fifty and you usually need sixty votes. And
- 51:53Speaker 1: on this one, it'll be fifty because of the reconciliation rules.
- 51:59Speaker 1: We've got to we've got to push. I mean, look,
- 52:00Speaker 1: I would like to believe that you could get some
- 52:03Speaker 1: Republicans on board with the idea that I don't know
- 52:07Speaker 1: that childcare ought to be cheaper, or that that leave
- 52:11Speaker 1: ought to be available, or that we got to make
- 52:14Speaker 1: those electric vehicles cheaper for every American, especially because it's
- 52:16Speaker 1: often in rural states that tend to be a little
- 52:18Speaker 1: more Republican, that people drive longer distances, they burn more gas,
- 52:21Speaker 1: they spend more money, and they're going to save more
- 52:22Speaker 1: money if they had nev if we made it cheaper.
- 52:24Speaker 1: It seems like a smart business to start would be
- 52:26Speaker 1: making those electric charging stations. Yeah. Absolutely, and we're seeing
- 52:30Speaker 1: a lot of companies get into that. Matter of fact,
- 52:32Speaker 1: one just opened facility in Tennessee. It's really cool to
- 52:35Speaker 1: see American jobs being created in Tennessee making the chargers
- 52:38Speaker 1: that you are going to charge the car. What I'm
- 52:39Speaker 1: saying is, you know, not only do we need to
- 52:42Speaker 1: obviously secure the fifty votes in our party, we need
- 52:45Speaker 1: to talk about why there there's really going to be
- 52:47Speaker 1: one hundred percent opposition on the Republican side, Well, we
- 52:53Speaker 1: don't expect it. Personally, I vote for Democrats. I don't
- 52:55Speaker 1: expect anything of reprobable. They let us know exactly who
- 52:58Speaker 1: they are and they're not trying to pretend to be offerings.
- 53:01Speaker 1: But this helps Republicans too, absolutely, I mean at least
- 53:04Speaker 1: Republican constituents. Yeah, there needs to be some pressure on
- 53:08Speaker 1: I think, I mean, I think these are things that
- 53:10Speaker 1: are going to be in different states, no matter. You
- 53:12Speaker 1: don't have to be a Republican to believe it's a
- 53:14Speaker 1: good idea to make childcare more afford one right, or
- 53:16Speaker 1: prescription drugs like this is one of the top issues
- 53:18Speaker 1: on Americans minds. Democrats and Republicans, seniors who tend to
- 53:24Speaker 1: be to skew a little more Republican right want at
- 53:28Speaker 1: least want to let Medicare negotiate prescription drug prices would
- 53:32Speaker 1: make a cheaper for all of us. M Those are
- 53:34Speaker 1: things that I think we at least have to raise
- 53:36Speaker 1: the question of why you couldn't cross party lines to
- 53:38Speaker 1: support that. It's obviously physically possible to support party lines,
- 53:41Speaker 1: because a lot of them did a good thing and
- 53:44Speaker 1: cross party lines to make this transportation bill possible. So
- 53:48Speaker 1: it can be done. I'm not naive about how easy
- 53:51Speaker 1: it will be to get it done. But I hope
- 53:53Speaker 1: our conversation is not just about one or two Democrats
- 53:56Speaker 1: that we haven't brought on board yet. It's only could
- 53:58Speaker 1: be a black and progress that's all. Well, we need yeah,
- 54:01Speaker 1: we need them to be on board in order for
- 54:03Speaker 1: anything to move. Do you have a feuge aspirations? I
- 54:05Speaker 1: don't know. I know this gonna sound like the political answer,
- 54:08Speaker 1: but it's true. I don't know if I'll ever run
- 54:10Speaker 1: for office again. Really, because you don't run for office
- 54:13Speaker 1: because you just want to have it. You're run for
- 54:14Speaker 1: office because you think you meet a need in a
- 54:17Speaker 1: particular moment. That's how I've made the decision every time
- 54:19Speaker 1: I've decided to run for office, and every time I've
- 54:20Speaker 1: decided not to. What I know is the whole point
- 54:23Speaker 1: of running for office is that if if you succeed,
- 54:26Speaker 1: you get a chance to government. And the President has
- 54:30Speaker 1: asked me to take on this job with a chance
- 54:32Speaker 1: to participate in government in a really big way, and
- 54:36Speaker 1: if I can do a good job at this that
- 54:38Speaker 1: will be that could be the work of a lifetime.
- 54:41Speaker 1: And if we don't get this right, nothing else matters.
- 54:44Speaker 1: So I've got more than enough work on my plate
- 54:47Speaker 1: to take all of my energy and all of my imagination,
- 54:50Speaker 1: and then I'm really glad to be here. Right. How
- 54:54Speaker 1: much does being a dad affect those decisions too? Well?
- 54:57Speaker 1: You definitely look at everything differently, right. I mean I
- 54:59Speaker 1: used to not mind being on the road all the time.
- 55:01Speaker 1: I used to not mind uh you know, stay at
- 55:04Speaker 1: the office till way past too late. And now you
- 55:07Speaker 1: think about those things, right, So I got to try
- 55:10Speaker 1: to get back for for I'm in charge of bathtime
- 55:13Speaker 1: most days, so I gotta get back by and the
- 55:14Speaker 1: kids don't care that that. You know, we got an
- 55:16Speaker 1: extra meeting at it to the calendar to deal with
- 55:18Speaker 1: the committee report or something. Right there, it's bathtime. Um,
- 55:22Speaker 1: so you know I'll go. I can go back and
- 55:24Speaker 1: and go back to work afterwards. You want you Yeah,
- 55:29Speaker 1: partly because it's important to me. Partly because we just
- 55:32Speaker 1: literally need to do it right. I means Chaston and
- 55:34Speaker 1: me and um and we owe it to each other
- 55:37Speaker 1: to Yeah, kids got a bad kids got to eat,
- 55:40Speaker 1: diaper's got to get changed, so we just start him
- 55:42Speaker 1: in daycare. So that's their that's their day daycare and

- 55:47Speaker 1: two friends. Um, you know that's saying. It takes a village.

- 58:23Speaker 1: hours and hours. She posted that one time in two
- 58:26Speaker 1: thousand and eight. I missed that on a Drake feature
- 58:28Speaker 1: because my boyfriend at the time found out he was
- 58:30Speaker 1: pulling up to the studio and flew into a jealous raid.
- 58:33Speaker 1: So I chickened out and quit responding to his text.
- 58:36Speaker 1: Can you imagine that your boyfriend is that jealous? You're

- 1:02:21Speaker 1: Donkey Day, Charlomagne Devil Breakfast Club. Yeah, it's Donkey here
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: today for Friday, April eighth, and drop on the clues
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: bombs for me, because I think I got the day
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: of day right. Every day this week Friday April Today's
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: Donkey goes to Camari Oliville, an eighteen year old Las
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: Vegas student in the Clark County School District who is
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: now facing charges of murder, robbery, burglary, and kidnapping and
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: connection with a botched home invasion that left the woman dead.
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: When I see stories like this, all I can hear
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: is my father in my hear telling me trouble is
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: easy to get into and hard to get out of.
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: Dropping a clues bomb from my pops Kelvin kicktil Sooth Carolina,
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: Love you, sir. That piece of advice is one of
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: the greatest pieces of advice that you can give a
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: young person or anybody. Really, trouble is easy to get into,
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: but hard to get out of. One thing that churn
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: don't understand is that what you do today would directly
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: impact your life tomorrow. And there's certain things you should
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: just say no to. Okay, this generation is really one
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: of the stupidest generations in human history. In fact, I
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: think it's probably the stupidest generation in human history. I mean,
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: there's been so many advancements in technology, but I don't
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: think there's been many advancements in people. Now. The reason
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: I believe this is one of the dumbest generations ever
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: is because this generation has so much evidence as to
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: why certain things will just simply not work. And crime
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: is absolutely one of those things that will simply not work.
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: What's that saying. Smart people learn from their own mistakes.
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: Wise people learn from the mistakes of others. Well, what
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: do people who are smart who are not smart nor
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: wise do, Well, they just be dumb and the world
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: is happening all around them and they pay no attention
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: to it. They pay no attention to their present. So
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: you know they're not paying attention to their past all
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: their future. And what's sad about this Kamari Oliver situation.
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: From this story, it sounds like he was actually caring
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: about his future somewhat because he was still doing his homework. Yes,
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: Kamari wasn't a young eighteen year old who devoted his
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: life to crime or had an extensive criminal history. This
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: is actually his first defense. He was a young eighteen
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: year old who to me sounds like he was trying
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: to be a dual threat the Dion Sanders of criminal
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: and school assignments, if you will, and Kamari is a
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: prime example of why you can't do both. In fact,
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: doing both is what literally got him caught. Okay, being
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: involved with the crime got him cut, and doing his
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: homework also got him caught. Uncle Charlotte, Brother Lenaud, what
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: the hell are you talking about? Well, let's go to
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: Fox five for the report police So Joe police say
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: man accused in a home invasion left his math homework
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: in the getaway car. Okay, that's one of the details.
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: And a new police report of an incident that left
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: a woman dead. Eighteen year old Kamari Oliver faces several charges,
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: including open murder. Police say last month, Oliver, along with
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: two others, entered the victim's home near Robindale and Jones
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: Too Robert. A woman now identified as Natalie Monthly pulled
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: out a gun and shot at them. Matro says at
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: least one of those suspects shot back and hit her
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: multiple times. The victim's boyfriend says the group I saw
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: the group leaving and ran their car with his own
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: into a nearby wall. That group did get away, but
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: police found a backpack in the car with that math
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: homework we talked about earlier. Police arrested Oliver a few
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: days later when he showed up school. No, we gotta
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: play game. Shut up? Okay, can let me get through
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: the donkey first? All right? Trouble is easy to get
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: into and hard to get out of. All right, Sending
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: healing energy to the family Natalie who was killed in
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: this incident. Man and stories like this is why Trey
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: wanted dough boy to let him out of the car. Okay.
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: Trey knew he wasn't built for that life. Trade knew
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: that life had no future. Trade just wanted to go
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: to Moorhouse and have a future with Brandy who was
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: going to Spellman. That's why he told Dough to let
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: him out of the car. All right. The fat Kmari
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: that you had your backpack with your chrome book along
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: with a notebook of schoolwork on your person. Lets me
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: know that you two wanted to get out of the car.
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: All right. Some young person out there is listening to
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: me right now and they will be faced with the
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: opportunity to make a penitentiary choice this weekend. And I
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: want to be the first to tell you to get
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: out of the car. Tell do to let you out,
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: all right. Matter of fact, that's advice for if you've
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: gotten into the car. Let's be even more preventive here.
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: Don't you take your ass rotting him Charing who don't
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: want to do anything with themselves? All right? Then little
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: folks is going to jail, and you're not going with them,
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: all right. Kamari Oliver is the hood version of Hansel
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: from Hanseling Gretel, but instead of leaving breadcrumbs for him
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: to follow the return back home, he left his math
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: homework in the getaway car. The lead police right to
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: his front door. In this situation, it led police to
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: his school where they questioned Kmari about his injuries because
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: he had a burn and laceration above his right eye.
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: Kamari said he had been in a fight over the weekend.
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: Then police, who also obtained camera footage. They obtained camera footage,
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: I said, They obtained camera footage of Kamari disposing the
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: murder weapon near the crime scene, questioned you know him
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: about the murder. And that's when he asked for a lawyer,
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: and that's when they stopped ask asking questions. Now, Kamari's
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: lawyers is saying evidence will show he did not go
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: inside of that house, and he's an eighteen year old
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: with no prior criminal history as an adult or juvenile. Hey,
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: lawyers got a lawyer. But the fact of the matter
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: is he should have gotten out of the car, all right.
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: You can't do both. Body in the history of life
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: has done positive and negative, all right. The negative will
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: always catch up to you when the negative is this extreme,
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: all right, it will always catch up to you before
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: the positive does. That's why crime shouldn't even be an option. Okay, Hey,
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: young world, please please please do something that I didn't
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: do when I was Kamari's age. Do something that Kamari
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: didn't do. Now learn from the mistakes of others. Okay,
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: you want to do a math problem, I have a
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: simple one for you that will keep you out of trouble.
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: When something doesn't add up, subtract yourself. Maybe I could
- 1:08:36Speaker 1: say that another way. When things aren't adding up in
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: your life, start subtracting. That means people, places, habits that
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: all may be causing things not to add up, and
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: crime should never be part of that equation. It's one
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: of the first things you should subtract. Please give Kamari
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: Oliver the biggest he hall. Why you Why do you

- 1:12:44Speaker 1: like anybody on Instagram? Yeah, Because it was like, man,
- 1:12:48Speaker 1: I want to be on the Breakfast Club. I always
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: wanted to be on. I was like, I'm doing Carolines
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: this weekend. Let me just you know, put it out
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: there in the universe. We didn't need our help for
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: that though. So that out quick, man, Yeah, it's sold out,
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: like New York pool up because New York always in
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: the comments section when you coming to New York Sin
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: when you could were just born Sin. When you coming,
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: I was like, all right, if I come out there,
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: buy the tickets early. And they did. Now I saw,
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: I saw a bit you did when you returned the stage. Man,
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: I know, condolences on your son, you know, But I
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: was very intrigued because I was like, how does a
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: comedian approach something right? You know, like this? So I'm
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: even holding up. First of all, this has been first
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: like the scariest I've ever been comedically, like normally, like
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: I'm the type of comedian that I talked about whatever's
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: going on in my life. Now I talk about like
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: on the surface stuff like you know, observations and stuff
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: like that, but then you know, I always include what
- 1:13:42Speaker 1: I'm going through in my life. And so with that,
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: it was like, you know, comedy. My son passed August
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: third in the car accident for those who don't know,
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: and then uh, I went on the road August twenty
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: fifth to Atlanta. So I was like, uh, and I
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: needed to come down, needed to keep working and making
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: people laugh as part of mine, you know, therapy, and
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: so I was like, uh, but I'm scared to do
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: it because people saw me lose my son in real time,
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: so it's not like you know, you just see me
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: and like, man, he lost his son, but we didn't
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: know him then, so we can kind of detach from
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: that reality. So now I'm scared to bring that material
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: out because the crowd is hurting too, so they mourning
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: with me. So it was just like, man, so I
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: finally did it Gonna Keep Your Distance, which is a
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: virtual comedy show that keV on stage does, and it
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: went and it went well. I told the audience, look, man,
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: I need to talk about this, so y'all need to
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: open up, and then they received it, said yeah about
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: the cremation, like you know, how do I know? I
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: want to know? I need to check this this dust right?
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: And I thought it was funnier, but I was like,
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: am I supposed to laugh? Yes, that's the weird part,
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: But there's comedy everywhere. You just got to be able
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: to find the sweet spot. I guess, to be able
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: to make it relative and like funny Marlin Wayne said
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: when he was up here, he was like when you're
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: a comedian, even a funeral you can find some type
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: of and he said that exact same thing. Yeah. So
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: it's like, you know, because I'm sitting there and I'm laughing,
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: you know, I was able to laugh, like, you know,
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: the day he passed, I'm laughing, you know, crying. You know,
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: I still cry daily, but it's like I laugh at
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: stuff every day too. So I was like, man, I
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: never thought, you know, you never you never know how
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: you're going to react yourself until it happens. Yeah. I mean,
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: I'm because I'm from the country I'm from, so we
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: laugh at everything. But I feel like sometimes with comedians
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: it's like an obligation to be funny. But what if
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: I don't feel like being funny right now? Right? Yeah. Yeah,
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: there's those moments where it was just like, I guess
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: it was just in me and I found that out
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: going through that. I was just like, man, I'm still
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: cracking jokes. Yeah, I can't believe. It's like at the funeral,
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: I'm doing a set, you know, I did fifteen minutes
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: at the funeral, just like yeah, yeah, man, crying. And
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: then I was be like, yeah, he was always late.
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: He was late to the afterlife too, Like God was like, man, yo,
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: I called you twenty minutes ago. What took you so long?
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: I had to had to put lotion on. Yeah, you don't.
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: You don't get ashy here. You never know. You gotta
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: look good. And I saw you said that the crowd
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: gets tight, right, So when crowds get uncomfortable. As a comedian,
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: you're used to I guess loosening them up, right, Yeah, yeah,
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: so going up there like I'll cuss the crowd out.
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: That's the kind of comedian I am. Like, if the
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: comedians and if the if the crowd is too stiff,
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: I'll cuss them out, like you know if because like
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: there's certain rooms where they'd be like prove it to us,
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: and they just sit there arms folded. And then I
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: saw somebody bring her boyfriend to a comedy show and
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: he was sitting there like yeah the whole time, right
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: in the front too. You can't be in the front
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: with that energy. Yeah you should be. If you're gonna
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: be in the front, we need the energy, fake it.
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: But if you're gonna be arms folded McGhee sitting the back,
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: sit your ass in the back with that in is
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: you'd be like look out man, but with with with
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: this type of topic. And it's not like I was
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: forcing myself to find the material because some comedians do
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: too much and they feel like I have to make
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: everything funny out of everything. For me, it was just organic.
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: It was just like, you know, I'd be looking at
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: my son's earn. It's right in the living room. So
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: I'm sitting there, I'm like, how do I know that's

- 1:21:08Speaker 1: Jerry Carmichael. Did you watch his pasion y. I loved it. Yeah,
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: like I didn't. I didn't laugh a lot, but I
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: loved it. And it was like a community gathering where
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: he's interacting with the It felt like it felt like
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: he wasn't forcing the jokes. He wasn't forcing the comedy.
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: It was like you can laugh or you cannot. When
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: he when he came out, I feel like the laughter
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: reveed up after that. So there was some good, good
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: things in there. But he felt very personally, feel like
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: a conversation. And you know, there was a moment in
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: there that hit me personally when he said his mom
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: was silent. So that hit me personally because I feel
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: like when I lost my son, my dad, and my
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: oldest brother, they just fell back. I'm just like yo.
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: And I told him, I was like, yo, y'all, don't
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: have to give me space here like I need y'all around.
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, we hear you, but we're gonna
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: get your space anyway. You know why, man, that's so
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: it's so difficult when you have a loved one and
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: they lose somebody really close to them because you don't
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: know how to show up for them. Yeah. You know
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You let them know I'm here for
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: you if you need me. Yeah, but I don't know
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: how to show up for you. It's weird, man, that
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: it's strange and that and that's and that's why I
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: told him. I was like, you don't have to when
- 1:22:20Speaker 1: people are grieving. I think we overthink it a lot
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: and we'd be like, man, I gotta come in then,
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta hit them on some hard hidden
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: I gotta come in and say, you know, God puts
- 1:22:30Speaker 1: things in place. You don't have to do all that.
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: Just like for me, I hate talking on the phone,
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: like notoriously, don't call me, and so all I need
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: is a text like thinking that you love you, bro.

- 1:31:29Speaker 1: Brown's album. He said he had a chance to listen
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: to some of Chris Brown's music. He said, every song
- 1:31:33Speaker 1: is a banger. You know that song Mormon Brace said
- 1:31:35Speaker 1: Chris Brown put out last week. A lot of people
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: are loving that song. It's really really dope. He's sampled
- 1:31:41Speaker 1: guy on that song. Let's chill and everybody hadn't been
- 1:31:43Speaker 1: doing it. I'm gonna actually start the mix off with
- 1:31:45Speaker 1: with let's chill all right, let's do it. Hey, I
- 1:31:47Speaker 1: want to salute another R and B artist. Let's salute August.
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: I've seen it two, okay, because I spoke to August
- 1:31:52Speaker 1: yesterday and he wants the people to know that he's
- 1:31:54Speaker 1: not writing any tellaw book about anything, and there's never
- 1:31:58Speaker 1: a need to go that low to write a book
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: detailing anything about that situation. And he doesn't even know
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: where that rumor came from. It came from the Sun
- 1:32:07Speaker 1: and then it was reported on multiple platforms. But yes,
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: he did a whole post yesterday letting people know that, no,
- 1:32:13Speaker 1: he does not have any type of tellallbook coming out.
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: A matter of fact, he sent me a copy of
- 1:32:18Speaker 1: a check that he got. He said, he's okay for
- 1:32:20Speaker 1: you to say this, but the check was for like
- 1:32:22Speaker 1: four hundred and five thousand dollars the check four and
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: yes music. Yeah, he said. He said he would never
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: dishonor himself by taking low vibration on money to write
- 1:32:33Speaker 1: a book. And he said he just got a half
- 1:32:35Speaker 1: a million dollars check from Screams on his music that
- 1:32:38Speaker 1: from streams on music that's like ten years old, so
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: he's not hurting for nothing. And yes, and it was
- 1:32:43Speaker 1: a surprise check check to make sure I have that right. No,
- 1:32:48Speaker 1: it's not, it's it's actually just an accounting thing. But yes,
- 1:32:52Speaker 1: four hundred and five thousand dollars. So shout out was
- 1:32:54Speaker 1: actually shot by though, because I thought artists weren't making

- 1:38:56Speaker 1: me to his favorite restaurant and we chop it up,
- 1:38:58Speaker 1: and Aby even left me with the bility in which
- 1:39:00Speaker 1: I thought it was weird. Well, you didn't ask me
- 1:39:02Speaker 1: to do it. You know, I got a lot of
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: favorite restaurants in Brokelyn. Oh, season two, let's go. I
- 1:39:05Speaker 1: would love for you to do that. I own some
- 1:39:07Speaker 1: places too. Oh my god, Shack did it. If he
- 1:39:09Speaker 1: did it, Nick did it, so many other celebrities on there.
- 1:39:11Speaker 1: It's gonna be crazy. You know, a lot of people
- 1:39:13Speaker 1: don't know that the Wilderdelt toy was created by you. Yes,
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: so that breakdown, you know, you creating the Wildelt Tour
- 1:39:19Speaker 1: and all that. Well, I actually started because I was
- 1:39:22Speaker 1: writing on the Nick Cannon Specials shoot and we were
- 1:39:25Speaker 1: sitting there and he was like, yo, we wouldn't took
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: a watch Cat Williams. And he's like, yo, I wish
- 1:39:29Speaker 1: that I could sell out arenas like this. And I
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: was like you, Nick, what do you mean you don't
- 1:39:32Speaker 1: sell at arenas like that? And he's like, nah, I
- 1:39:33Speaker 1: never have. It's one of my dreams. And I was like, well,
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: you know, you have done a lot for me by
- 1:39:37Speaker 1: putting me on the show and keeping me through all
- 1:39:39Speaker 1: my antics and who on way too far, because you know,
- 1:39:41Speaker 1: I mean, I go way too far. This is what
- 1:39:43Speaker 1: I had him built. And I was like, I do
- 1:39:45Speaker 1: that for you. So I actually started it here in
- 1:39:46Speaker 1: New York at the Amazuria, of all places, and I
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: took I walked up to Nick. I was like, look, man,
- 1:39:51Speaker 1: I don't know how much you get, but here it's
- 1:39:54Speaker 1: some money and just the security day and I'm a
- 1:39:56Speaker 1: due and I paid the whole cast, put them together
- 1:39:58Speaker 1: and we did Amazuri and me and my daughter actually
- 1:39:59Speaker 1: get the flies out to that and pushed it and
- 1:40:01Speaker 1: it was such a hard struggle and I never forget that.
- 1:40:04Speaker 1: When I went back to Nick, he was like, I
- 1:40:05Speaker 1: thought you was joking. I was like, no, man, to
- 1:40:07Speaker 1: show us tomorrow. He was like, I got another show
- 1:40:09Speaker 1: someone else. And I was like, look, whatever they pay
- 1:40:10Speaker 1: and you, I will give it to you. Just show
- 1:40:12Speaker 1: up for this and we're gonna start this whole thing.
- 1:40:14Speaker 1: And we did an Amazouri did end up doing two shows,
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: and then we did one in Long Island and then
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: it turned into this phenomena. And I remember his reps
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: telling me that these people. I was like, look, well,
- 1:40:24Speaker 1: this is a real tour. And he was like these
- 1:40:25Speaker 1: people don't matter. I was like, what do you mean
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: they don't matter? He was like, this is not a
- 1:40:29Speaker 1: real audience. And that very next day I went and
- 1:40:31Speaker 1: booked over twenty arenas and we just started selling them
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: out all across the country. Yeah. I maxed out on
- 1:40:37Speaker 1: my credit cards, sold my card and just put all
- 1:40:39Speaker 1: the money I had and down and I just did
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: it and we just knocked it out. And to this day,
- 1:40:43Speaker 1: I still hold number two in the country for that
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: year in Posstar for having the most sold out venues
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: across the country. Kelly Clarkson that year Kelly Clarkson, Yes,
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: I did two. I killed him in de Luth. I
- 1:40:53Speaker 1: did seventeen thousand and five in Deluth and I did
- 1:40:55Speaker 1: two shows. I still hold a record in DC for
- 1:40:57Speaker 1: doing two shows and one night and two separate arenas.
- 1:41:00Speaker 1: Did seventeen thousand and five at Capital one and another
- 1:41:02Speaker 1: thirteen thousand at Show Palace. Joe. If you listen, hey,
- 1:41:08Speaker 1: you see all this money, geez. I wasn't about money.
- 1:41:12Speaker 1: It was about the brand and actually bringing into people's homes.
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: And I see how much people enjoy the show, mother
- 1:41:18Speaker 1: and son and father and daughter. I was like, this
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: is finally something that you could take your kids to
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: and enjoy. And that's what I've been doing. What I'm saying,
- 1:41:25Speaker 1: Rip Michael's the April Foosday Comedy Show at the Backlaid's
- 1:41:28Speaker 1: one of my favorite places to be this Saturday in Brooklyn.

- 1:41:44Speaker 1: her hometime. I had to bring Little Kim back to Brooklyn,

- 1:41:49Speaker 1: opened up to show a Little Kim just crazy. All right,
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: Well it's Rip Michael's Charlemagne. You got a positive note.
- 1:41:55Speaker 1: I do have a positive note, and the positive notee
- 1:41:57Speaker 1: simply this man. If the words don't act that up,
- 1:42:00Speaker 1: it's usually because the truth wasn't included in the equation.
- 1:42:03Speaker 1: I want you to remember that this weekend breakfast Club
- 1:42:06Speaker 1: is y'all finish the y'all dumb
