1:04

1:07

Speaker 1: if there's anybody out there right now doing the same
3:43
Speaker 1: show they was doing ten years ago, they're the same
3:46
Speaker 1: people they were ten years ago. They're probably not having
3:48
Speaker 1: no success. Well, people have trauma sometimes, and maybe she
3:50
Speaker 1: had a little trauma and you know, she she had
3:53
Speaker 1: to get that out. But she'll be joining us this

4:01
Speaker 1: story broke my heart. And a woman was riding on
4:05
Speaker 1: the step to train. This was in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania,
4:09
Speaker 1: and she was raped on the train and other writers
4:11
Speaker 1: did not intervene. They were filming it, going live, doing
4:14
Speaker 1: all of that, and they did arrest the man, but
4:16
Speaker 1: would tell you what happened. Wow, all those people that
4:20
Speaker 1: were watching, they should be chal filmmaking as well filming.
4:22
Speaker 1: They should be as well dusting. But we'll tell you
4:25
Speaker 1: the whole story. All right, we'll get into that next.
4:27
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club, the morning Guy. We are to
4:30
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news. The Titans
4:36
Speaker 1: beat the Bills thirty four thirty one. Now major League Baseball? Wow,
4:40
Speaker 1: the boys. The Red Sox beat the ash Joe's twelve
4:42
Speaker 1: to three. Why are you dropping a bomb? Your Red
4:45
Speaker 1: Sox fan? Ready? You're ready? You better be your name ready?
4:49
Speaker 1: You're a Red Sox fan? Ray, Yeah, he's he's a
4:52
Speaker 1: where you live from, Jersey Boston fan. I don't like
4:58
Speaker 1: the Yankees. We don't like you evil? All right? What
5:00
Speaker 1: else we got, easy man? All right? Well, I just
5:03
Speaker 1: want to reiterate this, to stop using these fake vaccine
5:06
Speaker 1: cards for anybody out there that's thinking about it. It
5:08
Speaker 1: is a crime. They're talking about how many people are
5:11
Speaker 1: traveling and they're trying to go places where vaccinations are
5:14
Speaker 1: mandatory and you can get arrested. It's a real crime.
5:17
Speaker 1: And ye ja yes, So I just want to reiterate that.
5:20
Speaker 1: And Vander came from the San Jose Sharks. L NHL
5:23
Speaker 1: player has been suspended for twenty one games. He had
5:26
Speaker 1: a fake vaccination card. He said he would like to
5:28
Speaker 1: apologize to his teammates, to the San Jose Sharks organization,
5:31
Speaker 1: and all Sharks fans for violating the NHL COVID protocols.
5:34
Speaker 1: He said, I made a mistake when I sincerely regret
5:37
Speaker 1: and take responsibility for it. During my suspension, I will
5:40
Speaker 1: continue to participate in counseling to help me make better
5:43
Speaker 1: decisions in the future. When my suspension is over, I
5:46
Speaker 1: plan to return to the ice with great effort, determination
5:49
Speaker 1: and love for the game of hockey. Well, question, how
5:51
Speaker 1: can they determine that? They said, It's very easy. They
5:55
Speaker 1: can look at it I mean there's no standp on it, know,
6:00
Speaker 1: nothing on it to say that it's looked like my card.
6:02
Speaker 1: I'm looking at my car now, there's nothing on it
6:04
Speaker 1: that would say that's that's outside that a Brooklyn scammer
6:07
Speaker 1: can't do it well, clearly is something though, and then
6:09
Speaker 1: you know what, maybe it's better that they don't tell people.
6:11
Speaker 1: So that's how they keep catching for that is true. Well,
6:14
Speaker 1: just remember it's a crime. So some of them. Remember
6:17
Speaker 1: that one woman she tried to go to Hawaii. She
6:20
Speaker 1: tried to go to Hawaii and she had Maderna mispelled
6:23
Speaker 1: on her card and that was an issue. And so
6:26
Speaker 1: it's just different things. It could be misspellings, it could
6:28
Speaker 1: be places that don't exist, So just make sure that
6:31
Speaker 1: you don't do that if you're attempted. Either don't go
6:34
Speaker 1: where you can't go, or get get vaccinated one other other,
6:37
Speaker 1: but you cannot just and other people have been borrowing
6:40
Speaker 1: cards from other people, so maybe it's someone else's name
6:43
Speaker 1: and then you don't have the proper ID. So that's
6:45
Speaker 1: another thing that people are doing. If you go out
6:48
Speaker 1: of the country, you got to upload your your card
6:50
Speaker 1: to a portal or something, don't you. Yeah, you gotta
6:52
Speaker 1: put it on the app. I used to clear rap.
6:53
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, but people to go to restaurants, you know,
6:55
Speaker 1: people try to go to restaurant youat now they could
6:59
Speaker 1: You can't have a fake vaccination cry. All right. Now,
7:01
Speaker 1: let's talk about a man who was arrested for allegedly
7:03
Speaker 1: sexually assaulting a woman on a train in Philadelphia and
7:06
Speaker 1: accepted train. So there were people on the train who
7:10
Speaker 1: witnessed it happening, and nobody called the cops. It was
7:13
Speaker 1: actually accepted employee who boarded the train and saw the
7:16
Speaker 1: assault in progress, and he immediately called nine one win.
7:19
Speaker 1: And this whole thing could have been prevented if people
7:22
Speaker 1: weren't on there holding up their phones and filming it
7:24
Speaker 1: and somebody had called the cops. Now, according to what happened,
7:28
Speaker 1: they said. And now the guy who was arrested fitting Nigoi,
7:31
Speaker 1: thirty five years old. His last address was at a
7:35
Speaker 1: homeless shelter. He insisted that the encounter with the woman
7:38
Speaker 1: was consensual. But that version of events is false. There's
7:41
Speaker 1: actually footage where you can see that the woman was
7:45
Speaker 1: telling him to get off her to get away, and
7:47
Speaker 1: pushing him off, and it was going on for nearly
7:50
Speaker 1: forty five minutes that he was trying to touch and
7:53
Speaker 1: grope her before he ended up raping her. And so
7:57
Speaker 1: you know, according to the woman, she said, you had
7:59
Speaker 1: a few bears after she got on the wrong train
8:01
Speaker 1: and she didn't remember much, but she does she did
8:04
Speaker 1: push him off, and she didn't really remember anything. So
8:07
Speaker 1: she's struggling, you can see in the footage to get
8:09
Speaker 1: him off of her before being pulled away by sept
8:12
Speaker 1: before he's pulled away by Septa cops. So he later
8:16
Speaker 1: told the investigators that she struck up a conversation with
8:19
Speaker 1: him and he said it was consensual, but she was
8:22
Speaker 1: saying it was not. In the video footage shows that
8:25
Speaker 1: it was not consensual. And it's disgusting that people were
8:28
Speaker 1: on that train witnessing this go on for forty five
8:31
Speaker 1: minutes with their phones up filming and nobody did anything.
8:33
Speaker 1: They should be charged. Well, it's more proof that this
8:36
Speaker 1: society has become desensitize the violence and totally detached from
8:40
Speaker 1: reality due to social media. Like these are years and
8:43
Speaker 1: years of people pulling their phones out to record fights
8:46
Speaker 1: instead of pulling their phones out to call nine one.
8:48
Speaker 1: And when you see a bunch of people who would
8:49
Speaker 1: rather record for their social media instead of intervening the help.
8:52
Speaker 1: It really lets you know how so many people have
8:54
Speaker 1: become emotionless robots that are just detached from reality. I
8:58
Speaker 1: thought it was a lure, some type of law that
9:01
Speaker 1: if the good Samaritan law, you had a good Samaritan
9:03
Speaker 1: law that if you don't help somebody, you can be
9:04
Speaker 1: charged or sent to jail as well. That doesn't exist
9:07
Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania. I'm not sure what the law is there,
9:10
Speaker 1: but I do know he's being held at Delaware County
9:13
Speaker 1: Prison and one hundred and eighty thousand dollars bill. He
9:16
Speaker 1: has a preliminary herring schedule for next Monday. And there
9:19
Speaker 1: are twenty eight thousand cameras on the scepter, just so
9:22
Speaker 1: you know. So people are saying that you will be
9:25
Speaker 1: videoed if you do anything on that system that's improper,
9:27
Speaker 1: and you will be caught. And for all of those people,
9:30
Speaker 1: you should be ashamed of yourselves they have witnessed this
9:32
Speaker 1: and just held up your camera or did nothing more. Yeah,
9:35
Speaker 1: you could at least call nine one one. Yeah, but
9:38
Speaker 1: we've been saying that for years in regards that everything
9:40
Speaker 1: like and like where does that good Samaritan law exist?
9:42
Speaker 1: Because I haven't seen that in years. I saw it
9:44
Speaker 1: on Seinfeld. That's the only reason I even know about it. Oh,
9:47
Speaker 1: because all I see it is a bunch of people
9:48
Speaker 1: pulling out day pols to record, you know, acts of
9:51
Speaker 1: violence for their social media feats. That could be somebody's mother,
9:55
Speaker 1: somebody's daughter, somebody's sister, somebody's wife, somebody's girl. That's crazy
10:00
Speaker 1: different news. Get it off your chests eight hundred five
10:04
Speaker 1: eight five one on five one. If you need to vent,
10:06

11:07
Speaker 1: they just said the fact that somebody could just shilm
11:11
Speaker 1: with no regard what this young lady was going through
11:15
Speaker 1: just shows the level of non empathy that the that
11:19
Speaker 1: people in society did today has to help. And in
11:24
Speaker 1: respect to with respect to that good scenarian law, the
11:28
Speaker 1: good scenarian law thinks that you cannot be charged with

Speaker 1: Gods On is Truth from Last Friday with a Christian
12:10
Speaker 1: Harris and m cal Newport, and like you'll see how
12:15
Speaker 1: social media literally caters to your seven Deadly sins. It
12:18
Speaker 1: was like every social media app caters to one or
12:21
Speaker 1: more of the seven Deadly Sins. Hello, who's that from Atlanta? Hey,

12:40
Speaker 1: Atlanta and I have my uniform on, my job is
12:43
Speaker 1: to act and anything I see I have to report it.
12:46
Speaker 1: One instance that I have heard of on the news
12:49
Speaker 1: was the pregnant female. The Caucasian guy that was trying
12:52
Speaker 1: to assault her or being aggressive towards her, and the
12:55
Speaker 1: black mail that pulled out the gun and was saying, hey,
12:57
Speaker 1: she's pregnant, watch it. He ended up getting in trouble
13:00
Speaker 1: for that, right. I remember that all of that stuff,
13:04
Speaker 1: all that good Samaritan law and citizens the rest stuff
13:06
Speaker 1: is BS. Well, I don't believe that. Yeah, Like I
13:10
Speaker 1: friend from Brooklyn just said, the good Samaritan law is
13:12
Speaker 1: that if you're trying to help somebody and that person
13:14
Speaker 1: gets injured or or something like that. Or if you
13:17
Speaker 1: help someone, you don't have to expect they don't have
13:19
Speaker 1: to expect compensation. See something. I'm gonna say something. If
13:24

16:18
Speaker 1: I you know what, Ever, since I was young. I
16:19
Speaker 1: enjoyed it, but I remember going through it with my
16:21
Speaker 1: dad and I walked through with my head under his
16:23
Speaker 1: shirt the whole time because I was too scared to
16:25
Speaker 1: look at anything. I went to one in Virginia Beach
16:27
Speaker 1: and this is when this was maybe about six seven
16:30
Speaker 1: years ago, no longer than that, and they could actually
16:34
Speaker 1: touch you. And we ran out of that thing so fast. Yeah,
16:39
Speaker 1: I can't see you doing it nah, right with your
16:42
Speaker 1: pants nah, but they I don't think they could touch
16:44
Speaker 1: you anymore. But they used to be able to grab
16:45
Speaker 1: your leg, grab your arm, nabby. People get knocked out
16:48
Speaker 1: for that too, And I wouldn't even want to play
16:51
Speaker 1: that role. But yeah, that's actually a great date idea
16:53
Speaker 1: and those how they have those like haunted hay rides
16:55
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But you gotta go out to
16:57
Speaker 1: like the country to be able to really experience it.
16:59
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get it off your chest eight hundred
17:02
Speaker 1: five eight five one on five one that we got
17:03
Speaker 1: rumors on the way. Yes, and let's talk about Michael B.
17:06
Speaker 1: Jordan and Serena Williams. Find out what they're doing together
17:09
Speaker 1: for HBCUs. All right, we'll get into that next. It's
17:11
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning the Breakfast Club. It's about
17:22
Speaker 1: this report angela ye the Breakfast Club. Well, Megan Stallion's
17:29
Speaker 1: having an amazing day today. Not only is it her
17:31
Speaker 1: one year anniversary with Partisan Fontaine that just happened, but
17:35
Speaker 1: she also has her Hotti sauce dropping today and all
17:38
Speaker 1: of her she has to deal with Popeyes as well,
17:41
Speaker 1: so she's opening up some franchises. So shout out to
17:44
Speaker 1: Megan the Stallion. But Partisan Fontaine actually was showing some
17:48
Speaker 1: love as they celebrated their one year. She posted one
17:51
Speaker 1: year of Fun with You, and then he posted a
17:53
Speaker 1: really cute video year one Forever to Go. He said,
17:57
Speaker 1: I do not own the rights to this music. And
17:58
Speaker 1: here's what Party had to say. I love you because
18:02
Speaker 1: you know your presence is a gift all in itself.
18:17
Speaker 1: And so it was a series of photos and videos
18:20
Speaker 1: of them together to go. A salute the party and
18:24
Speaker 1: Megan Party and love love. Yeah, so she Party. Just
18:28
Speaker 1: don't forget to put no music out. Okay, you can
18:30
Speaker 1: be in love and rap loving hip hop all right. Now,
18:33
Speaker 1: let's talk about the Wendy Williams Show. According to reports,
18:36
Speaker 1: Wendy Williams was blindsided by producers bringing in Leah Remedy
18:39
Speaker 1: to take her place for the rest of this week,
18:43
Speaker 1: and so according to a report, they said, she's not
18:46
Speaker 1: thrilled that producers did not check with her before getting
18:49
Speaker 1: Leah Remedy on board. They said no one asked for
18:50
Speaker 1: her approval before hiring Leah. They will say they are
18:52
Speaker 1: protecting Wendy and don't want to bother her as she recovers,
18:55
Speaker 1: but it's her name that's above the front door, and
18:57
Speaker 1: she should have been consultant on this. But according to
19:01
Speaker 1: her team, they were consulted and they said she is
19:03
Speaker 1: focusing on getting better. So there's a lot of different
19:07
Speaker 1: reports going on. We don't know what's true and what's not.
19:09
Speaker 1: But what we do know is that we are praying
19:11
Speaker 1: for Wendy Williams and hoping that she gets it together
19:14
Speaker 1: as out. But we didn't know, definitely, we didn't know
19:18
Speaker 1: that the show was going to continue on. I mean,
19:20
Speaker 1: most of those people don't care necessarily. They care more
19:22
Speaker 1: about the bunny, care about keeping that that that money
19:25
Speaker 1: train continuing on. So we knew that somebody was going
19:27
Speaker 1: to be filling into They gotta add, they gotta add,
19:30
Speaker 1: they gotta ady you gotta be shown. Yeah, I mean,
19:32
Speaker 1: they postponed it several times already, and I'm sure she
19:36
Speaker 1: doesn't want to lose her show, but I would hope
19:39
Speaker 1: that they did, you know, consult with her, but they
19:41
Speaker 1: didn't her name on the Marquis, you know what I mean?
19:43
Speaker 1: But did you show that we don't own our own show?
19:45
Speaker 1: That ain't you know, even though her name is on
19:46
Speaker 1: the Marquis, somebody else owns that. But it is also
19:48
Speaker 1: true that while she's trying to recover, maybe this is
19:52
Speaker 1: shouldn't be something that she's even I understand that this
19:55
Speaker 1: is her life, but my show. I would't want to
19:56
Speaker 1: know who's feeling it. But what if she says no,
19:58
Speaker 1: and I don't want this. I don't want that, and
19:59
Speaker 1: now we can't even continue and we have you know,
20:01
Speaker 1: you gotta continue, right because you don't want to lose
20:04
Speaker 1: a deal Angela and Envy. You know we've been reporting that,
20:07
Speaker 1: you know, she's not in the best health. What if
20:09
Speaker 1: she's just not even in condition to have those conversations? Right?
20:12
Speaker 1: We don't know that's true? All right now, Michael B.
20:15
Speaker 1: Jordan and Serena Williams have partner to give HBCU students
20:18
Speaker 1: a chance to win one million dollars. So that's going
20:22
Speaker 1: to be exciting for these students and we love to

23:30
Speaker 1: coming up. What were talking about now yesterday during the show,
23:33
Speaker 1: breaking news was that Colin Power had passed away because
23:36
Speaker 1: of complications from COVID. What we do have an update
23:39

23:53
Speaker 1: easy as getting quality coverage from the General Insurance? The
23:55
Speaker 1: General offers the quality coverage you deserve at prices you
23:58
Speaker 1: can afford. Switched to the General and you could save
24:00
Speaker 1: over five hundred dollars called eight hundred General or visit
24:03
Speaker 1: the General dot com. Some restrictions apply everybody in CDJ
24:10
Speaker 1: mvy Angela yee, Charlemagne the guy we are to breakfast
24:13
Speaker 1: clubs skins on front Page News now on Monday Night football,
24:17
Speaker 1: the Titans take on the Bills. The Major League Baseball
24:21
Speaker 1: the Bent. The Red Sox beat the Astros last night
24:23
Speaker 1: twelve to three, and also the NBA Staws today. Should
24:26
Speaker 1: be some good games. I had the next take on
24:28
Speaker 1: the Bucks at seven thirty, and then after that the
24:30
Speaker 1: Warriors take on the Lakers. All right, so I feel
24:33
Speaker 1: like the NBA season just finished. You feel like the
24:35
Speaker 1: Bucks just won the championship? Right back at it? What
24:38
Speaker 1: else we got easy? All right? Well, yesterday we talked
24:41
Speaker 1: about Colin Powell passing away from complications of COVID nineteen.
24:45
Speaker 1: He was the first black US Secretary of State. Well,
24:48
Speaker 1: what they are saying is that even though he was
24:51
Speaker 1: fully vaccinated, there is a rare but serious phenomenon that
24:55
Speaker 1: has disproportionately afflicted elderly Americans. Again, he was eighty four
24:58
Speaker 1: years old, but in addition to that, he also was
25:02
Speaker 1: battling Parkinson's as well as cancer. He had multiple mileoma,
25:06
Speaker 1: blood cancer and Parkinson's. So they said, with that vaccine,
25:09
Speaker 1: it also is really hard for that to help you
25:13
Speaker 1: with your immune system. So that is part of I know,
25:16
Speaker 1: we discussed this yesterday because we didn't have all the details,
25:19
Speaker 1: but a lot of people, especially I was watching on
25:21
Speaker 1: Fox News, they were talking about how he was fully
25:23
Speaker 1: vaccinated and questioning the vaccine and it didn't turn into
25:26
Speaker 1: a whole rest in peace to Colin Powell, but rather
25:29
Speaker 1: that type of political conversation. But yes, he was fully vaccinated,
25:33
Speaker 1: but he did have breakthrough infections. Yeah, but he had
25:36
Speaker 1: underlying conditions too. He had a camp for another it
25:38
Speaker 1: was called multiple miloma type of white blood cell and
25:43
Speaker 1: Parkins and Annie surgery for prostate cancer when he was
25:47
Speaker 1: Secretary of State and Parkinson's Yeah, yeah, yeah, the help
25:49
Speaker 1: underlying health conditions, all right. So just wanted to make
25:53
Speaker 1: sure we give another rest in peace to Colin Powell
25:55
Speaker 1: and send our condolences to his family and his wife,
25:58
Speaker 1: who was also fully vaccinated. Alma Powell, also tested positive
26:02
Speaker 1: for COVID, but only had mild symptoms and she was
26:05
Speaker 1: sent home after treatment. But the FDA is going to
26:08
Speaker 1: allow mix and match approach for COVID booster shots, so
26:11
Speaker 1: you know, those booster shots are getting ready, and they
26:14
Speaker 1: are saying I was wondering that too because I got fiser.
26:17
Speaker 1: So if you wanted to get a different booster shot,
26:19
Speaker 1: can you but they are saying that they will allow that. Okay,
26:23
Speaker 1: all right. Now, yesterday Jerry's selection was underway for the
26:27
Speaker 1: trial of the three men charged with murdering Ahmad Aarbury
26:31
Speaker 1: that happened in southeastern Georgia last year. So with just
26:36
Speaker 1: a refresher, because again, this happened February twenty third of
26:38
Speaker 1: twenty twenty and Ahmad Aarbury was jogging. His family said
26:43
Speaker 1: he loved to run, and three men have now been
26:46
Speaker 1: charged with his murder. They chased him down and pickup trucks.
26:49
Speaker 1: They're trying to say that though he was responsible for
26:51
Speaker 1: a series of burglaries in the residential neighborhood, police never
26:55
Speaker 1: connected him to any of those robberies, but they're trying
26:58
Speaker 1: to say that they thought he was a thief. And
27:00
Speaker 1: then as they were trying to stop him, a fight
27:02
Speaker 1: broke out in the road. Aubrey was protecting himself and
27:04
Speaker 1: he was shot three times with a shotgun. It was
27:06
Speaker 1: all captured on video. So Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael, and
27:10
Speaker 1: William Roddy Bryan, all of whom we're white, are accused
27:13
Speaker 1: of killing Aarbury, who was black, all right, And they
27:16
Speaker 1: are now facing charges including felony, murder and hate crimes.
27:21
Speaker 1: The trial is set to begin in February. And that
27:25
Speaker 1: is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss
27:28
Speaker 1: ye Oh one more thing I want to say. I
27:29

Speaker 1: joining us today. We have the Ladies of Queens whoa okay,
28:34
Speaker 1: and it's about to be my new favorite show. I
28:36
Speaker 1: could already tell just from seeing the music video. Y'all
28:38
Speaker 1: put out the energy. It looks like y'all had an
28:40
Speaker 1: amazing time filming too. Behind the scene, we had a
28:43
Speaker 1: great time. We get that video. It was it was
28:45
Speaker 1: hot as hell, but it was perfect. It was perfect. Yeah,
28:48
Speaker 1: we had a good time. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Yes,
28:57
Speaker 1: thats have been so far, it's been great. I mean
28:59
Speaker 1: these eies with some of the first people I actually too,
29:02
Speaker 1: like literally literally like, so it's been great and we've
29:06
Speaker 1: been filming through the whole thing and it's yeah, it's
29:08
Speaker 1: crazy sauce. All I want is which I not can't
29:13
Speaker 1: have because it then it give me heartbird. But it
29:15
Speaker 1: tastes so good, so I don't care. You know, we
29:19
Speaker 1: didn't so you'll see. As things go on, things get
29:23
Speaker 1: shot differently. Yeah, things get shot a lot different. I
29:27
Speaker 1: crave everything crazy. We'll have it too. That good chand
29:37
Speaker 1: the nasty bitches inside of you. Oh god, the group
29:41
Speaker 1: said the name of the group. That's the name of
29:42
Speaker 1: the group. Yeah, but you know what, it's funny. I
29:44
Speaker 1: feel like for me, Brandy and the Tory, it might
29:47
Speaker 1: be it might have been slightly easy just because we
29:50
Speaker 1: come from performing background. But she murders it, by the way,
29:54
Speaker 1: they never performed rap sing like at all as she
29:59
Speaker 1: murders it. So I don't know. I feel like it
30:01
Speaker 1: was right for me. I felt like it was an
30:04
Speaker 1: easy transition only because I've played a rapper before. Playing
30:09
Speaker 1: Little Kim kind of helped set me up. But I
30:11
Speaker 1: also wasn't channeling just that I was trying to think,
30:14
Speaker 1: how can I separate myself from Tasha, you know from
30:17
Speaker 1: what people saw me in Power, saw me as Little Kim.
30:20
Speaker 1: So for me, I was excited to bring Jill my
30:22
Speaker 1: character is Jill hip hop in a different way, Like
30:25
Speaker 1: I didn't want her to see what everyone expected. So
30:28
Speaker 1: I think we just had fun with it. But it
30:30
Speaker 1: was more natural. I would say it was. Yeah, I
30:32
Speaker 1: think what did Nadine do? Ye? Nadine, Yeah, what did
30:35
Speaker 1: Nadine do? Tell me you dedicated? Yes, I'm just you know,
30:41
Speaker 1: I'm a I'm an actress. Right. So it's like music
30:44
Speaker 1: has been in my in my soul, it's my It's
30:47
Speaker 1: something that I haven't tapped into until now. Um, something
30:51
Speaker 1: that I would come in and out of my life,
30:53
Speaker 1: but I never felt confident enough to put myself in
30:56
Speaker 1: that position. But you never rapped before at sixteen, I
30:58
Speaker 1: never rapped before. Now, I didn't even listen to rap.
31:01
Speaker 1: Actually yeah, no, I didn't grow up with that. Grow
31:04
Speaker 1: very Christian Pentecostal. So there was a big chalk of
31:06
Speaker 1: my life that I didn't have. But also being with
31:10
Speaker 1: them and just them creating a place where it's like
31:13
Speaker 1: it was okay to explore and experiment and be guided.
31:18
Speaker 1: That kind of safety just relaxed me enough to just
31:22
Speaker 1: experiment murder because I'm probably other artists that was going
31:26
Speaker 1: out for the rule. Yeah, I mean, honestly, I'm surprised.
31:38
Speaker 1: I can imagine people would like do this like people
31:41
Speaker 1: we know actually like yeah, probably I know. I know
31:44
Speaker 1: my acting game, like I want like I know that
31:51
Speaker 1: I have that like if you can put me in
31:53
Speaker 1: a room with anybody, I'm gonna act my ass off
31:55
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna feel confident. But the music part was
31:57
Speaker 1: like what like okay, bet BK, do you have like
32:01
Speaker 1: a favorite rapper now from having done this and having
32:03
Speaker 1: to study it, well, I mean I enjoy CARDI b
32:06
Speaker 1: I love how free she is, right like in her
32:09
Speaker 1: body and just like her in her being. And then
32:13
Speaker 1: during the pilot because because a lot of my character
32:17
Speaker 1: has similarities to j Lo, there's a lot of jokes,
32:19
Speaker 1: like she calls me fake j Low character, you know,
32:24
Speaker 1: jokes about jo and me thinking I'm j Lo. So
32:28
Speaker 1: I also watched her because right she was coming up
32:30
Speaker 1: in the nineties and so I was like watching her style.
32:33
Speaker 1: And but Lisa left I was another one that I was,
32:35
Speaker 1: you know, watching as well, watching Little Kim too. Yeah,
32:40
Speaker 1: I was, yeah in Atlanta when I was getting my
32:43
Speaker 1: COVID tests out in the parking lot. Okay, I said,
32:48
Speaker 1: I don't know, I said, Brandy, we evolved, We're not
32:50
Speaker 1: the same. But I don't know. But I'm glad you
32:54
Speaker 1: came me too. I'm glad I could. I could not
32:57
Speaker 1: leave the Queens up here. No, So what is the
33:01
Speaker 1: show about exactly? I mean, I think we all have
33:03
Speaker 1: different ways to explain it, but I would say Queens
33:06
Speaker 1: is about for women that used to be in a
33:10
Speaker 1: girl group back in a day. Somebody actually lived that experience,
33:15
Speaker 1: So I relate to this storyline. But it's interesting. These
33:19
Speaker 1: women have lost their sense of self, they've lost their confidence,
33:23
Speaker 1: they're swag their sexiness because they're older. It's like twenty
33:26
Speaker 1: years later, and they have this chance to become a
33:29
Speaker 1: group again because a young artist basically flips their song
33:33
Speaker 1: and takes it in, does a remix, and it gives
33:35
Speaker 1: them a second chance. And I think a lot of people,
33:37
Speaker 1: not just women, can connect to the Queen's story because
33:40
Speaker 1: it's really about second chances. Yeah, when you really have
33:43
Speaker 1: had a dream and you didn't really get a chance
33:45
Speaker 1: to go hard hard and we broke up kind of
33:47
Speaker 1: a tumultuous breakup, which I've also lived. It's definitely a
33:51
Speaker 1: story about redemption the breakup. That's true Brandy's character, my
34:01
Speaker 1: character was not having it. Yeah, other things, but getting
34:06
Speaker 1: into all the details, but a lot of the things
34:08
Speaker 1: that she did, I wasn't I wasn't for at all.
34:11
Speaker 1: She says, she's a hustler she started. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
34:21
Speaker 1: So all you have different interpretations what the show is about. No,
34:24
Speaker 1: I think we all agree that. I think we agree
34:26
Speaker 1: with that. I definitely agree with definitely the starting over,
34:29
Speaker 1: I think, especially with my character, she is a mother
34:32
Speaker 1: of five, she liked, but she loves her life now.
34:34
Speaker 1: It's just she definitely lost that part of herself. And
34:38
Speaker 1: if that's another thing, I'm sure a lot of people
34:39
Speaker 1: can relate to a lot of women, especially like Yo,
34:42
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make sure the family's good. I'm gonna make
34:43
Speaker 1: sure my man's good, and then you kind of forget
34:45
Speaker 1: who you are and once the kids grown, once your
34:47
Speaker 1: relationship has gone, as long as it's gone, who are
34:50
Speaker 1: you then? What are you left with? So yeah, man,
34:52
Speaker 1: I'm telling you honestly, this show is a roller coaster ride.
34:56
Speaker 1: The music is amazing, the emotion like got out to Swiss,
35:00
Speaker 1: be like, wow, who we got? As it relates to
35:05
Speaker 1: the stories in the show music soundtrack, we do have songs.
35:13
Speaker 1: We do have songs together altogether as the group, but
35:16
Speaker 1: we won't say album soundtrack soundtrack. Yeah we do, I know,
35:22
Speaker 1: but I start getting stressed out about who I remember.
35:27
Speaker 1: You guys were doing the pilot, right, So what was
35:29
Speaker 1: the process from doing the pilot and then it getting
35:31
Speaker 1: picked up? Because it wasn't a definite at first, but
35:34
Speaker 1: it seemed like, you know, what's crazy. I honestly, doing
35:37
Speaker 1: the pilot, I think we all knew it was. We did.
35:39
Speaker 1: We were like, this is special. We knew like our
35:42
Speaker 1: Chempus Street again, we kept saying one season in the
35:52
Speaker 1: show a Christian back shout out to our writer though
36:03
Speaker 1: yeah to anewless question though z I hear McGee wrote
36:06
Speaker 1: the show and Serena Win and ABC we knew that
36:09
Speaker 1: they believed in it. So watching Like when I watched
36:13
Speaker 1: the pilot, I think they sent us a link. I
36:15
Speaker 1: was like, this is about to be here. I've experienced
36:19
Speaker 1: being on a show that has failed, being a show
36:21
Speaker 1: that succeeded. This felt like for me just like the
36:23
Speaker 1: next chapter that I couldn't wait for, you know, the
36:26
Speaker 1: fans to see. So it's very different. It's very special.
36:29
Speaker 1: Like and I love the fact obviously coming from hip
36:31
Speaker 1: hop as well, we all we come from that raw.
36:34
Speaker 1: But to have a story from a female point of
36:37
Speaker 1: view with hip hop and not just like a male interview,
36:40
Speaker 1: like I feel like that's happened so much, like what
36:43
Speaker 1: it's just it's really nice. And to see sisterhood yeah
36:47
Speaker 1: for real, like we don't compete with women of color,
36:50
Speaker 1: like it's it's a big deal. All right, we have
36:52
Speaker 1: more with the queens when we come back, Eve, Brandy
36:55
Speaker 1: and the Tori and Nadine. For the last question, is
36:58
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club good morning to see morning. Everybody is
37:01
Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy we all the
37:04
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Eve, Brandy, the Tory,
37:07
Speaker 1: Norton and Nadine. For last quest, Now for you two
37:11
Speaker 1: solo artists, even Brandy, what, looking back at it, would
37:14
Speaker 1: you prefer to be in a group? Now? Seeing how
37:18
Speaker 1: I love these lady, listen, I love these ladies and
37:23
Speaker 1: this was an amazing experience, and I'm thankful for this experience.
37:26
Speaker 1: But I would never want to be in a group ever.
37:29
Speaker 1: I would never I don't. I don't mind the group.
37:31
Speaker 1: I love sharing the light, swarkling brighter like I would
37:34
Speaker 1: love to be in a group like this, Like these
37:36
Speaker 1: women are amazing. I'm inspired by them. They keep me
37:39
Speaker 1: on my toes. If it was a group like this,
37:41
Speaker 1: then yes, But if it ain't then no. Right, I'm
37:45
Speaker 1: happy with the TV group. Yes, Wait, what's one of
37:52
Speaker 1: your lines of the show when you please, girl, please,
37:57
Speaker 1: please please please? No getting in the group. But I
38:01
Speaker 1: actually wish if I could do it again. It was
38:05
Speaker 1: like this, in all honesty, this is the way a
38:07
Speaker 1: group should feel. It's imperfect. We do have like our moments.
38:11
Speaker 1: We're also twenty years old. I was about to say,
38:13
Speaker 1: that's much and we ain't got nothing to compete about.
38:16
Speaker 1: We all in our own lanes and we're we're comfortable
38:19
Speaker 1: enough in our own skin to support each other. And
38:21
Speaker 1: that's a big deal. You ain't getting that where you
38:24
Speaker 1: have to be. When I watched, like when I'm in
38:26
Speaker 1: the scene, I'm like, yo, this really happened to me.
38:29
Speaker 1: That Cribs episode. Yeah, I lived it. I was doing
38:33
Speaker 1: a fake Cribs and I mean, I'm telling everybody now
38:35
Speaker 1: in the breakfast club. MTV did the Cribs and you know,
38:38
Speaker 1: like back when three W was hot, we had to pretend.
38:41
Speaker 1: But I didn't have a car, I didn't have a
38:43
Speaker 1: house to have any of those things. But we was
38:50
Speaker 1: doing an episode very similar to that without way where
38:54
Speaker 1: you see how fake we have to project this image
38:57
Speaker 1: and I literally did that and had to clean clean
39:00
Speaker 1: the house by seven o'clock to give it back to
39:02
Speaker 1: the owner. Y'all have to clean the house. We had
39:08
Speaker 1: to clean up all of our stuff, get a cleaning person.
39:11
Speaker 1: I was like, Brandy and Eve, what else did this
39:21
Speaker 1: show bring back to the service for y'all? The Tory
39:23
Speaker 1: just gave us something with the I mean for me, honestly,
39:27
Speaker 1: the first week, week and a half, it was actually
39:29
Speaker 1: hard for me to find Brianna and p Sex because
39:32
Speaker 1: it's so many parallels to my actual life. So it
39:36
Speaker 1: kind of freaked me out, like, Okay, yeah, I'm married
39:39
Speaker 1: with four kids a baby with the way, so I'm
39:42
Speaker 1: like five kids, like I come from hip hop, so
39:44
Speaker 1: it took me a minute to find her boys, but
39:46
Speaker 1: once I did, for me, it actually Professor Sex actually
39:50
Speaker 1: freed me up a little bit. Like our first performance,
39:53
Speaker 1: Like our BT performance, I would never wear she's so
39:56
Speaker 1: sexy and as I never but as Professor Sex, I
40:03
Speaker 1: loved it so much and it was actually nice. Thank
40:05
Speaker 1: you Grog, the last squad, all of you, I was like,
40:11
Speaker 1: everybody looks incredible, thank you. That's I was like, I
40:14
Speaker 1: could see this happening because I see the premise is
40:16
Speaker 1: from the teaser that we sell you guys are getting
40:18
Speaker 1: together to do like an award show. Yes, yeah, yeah,
40:22
Speaker 1: that's our first performance. Y'all should have performed that this
40:27
Speaker 1: would have been the seed and then you know they
40:30
Speaker 1: might ask. I mean, the songs are so dope, Honestly,
40:32
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if people did ask us to
40:34
Speaker 1: do it. Like the songs and the performance cras are
40:36
Speaker 1: all so big, like, yeah, what about you, Brandy when
40:39
Speaker 1: you bring back up for you? Well, my life is
40:41
Speaker 1: so parallel to to Naomi explicit lyrics life, Like I
40:45
Speaker 1: don't know if anybody knows, but I like dibbled and
40:48
Speaker 1: dabbled and rapped, you know, back in the day, and
40:50
Speaker 1: nobody wanted to hear me rap because people so used
40:53
Speaker 1: to me singing it's all good. But but God had
40:55
Speaker 1: another plan to you know, bring about queens. And I
40:58
Speaker 1: just completely related just to my character, but to all
41:01
Speaker 1: the women. And you know, we get a chance to
41:03
Speaker 1: tell like complex stories. And I'm a single mom, you know,
41:07
Speaker 1: so there have been times where I've had to, you know,
41:09
Speaker 1: try to balance, uh, providing for my daughter and then
41:13
Speaker 1: also spending the quality time with her. And that's what
41:16
Speaker 1: my character Naomi deals with, just trying to prioritize and
41:19
Speaker 1: balance her relationship with her daughter. And you know, this
41:22
Speaker 1: newfound success with with the with the women. So how
41:25
Speaker 1: is that with your daughter? Because thank you? Now? How
41:31
Speaker 1: is that with especially with social media people attacking you
41:33
Speaker 1: and your daughter? So how do you deal with that
41:35
Speaker 1: as a mom? Well, I mean it's difficult because you know,
41:38
Speaker 1: I don't want her to run across anything to you know,
41:40
Speaker 1: to mess up her mind or anything like that. But
41:42
Speaker 1: my daughter is very strong. I feel like I've it
41:44
Speaker 1: takes a village, but I definitely feel like I raised
41:46
Speaker 1: her to follow her gut and you know, not read
41:49
Speaker 1: all the comments. You know that she's beautiful with or
41:52
Speaker 1: without people's validation. And I think that she's she really
41:56
Speaker 1: gets that now she's she's nineteen, so she definitely has
41:59
Speaker 1: more to go and you know, more growing to do
42:01
Speaker 1: and more confidence to build. But singing your songs over yeah,
42:09
Speaker 1: and you advil for your wraps too, you like I
42:12
Speaker 1: love I love the Brandy Okay, yes, where you talk
42:21
Speaker 1: to Cameron and Jad because I think you could be
42:23
Speaker 1: a rapper, Like, yes, where you talk to them. I'm
42:25
Speaker 1: like Brandy was wrapping her path. Well what Evie was
42:29
Speaker 1: telling me, you you sound like Na. You need to
42:32
Speaker 1: go more into your nas sound. And so she she was,
42:36
Speaker 1: you know, getting the stamp from favors like okay from you,
42:45
Speaker 1: because without we, none of us would be rapping. But
42:47
Speaker 1: she stamps it yeah with the solo album now because
42:52
Speaker 1: I know you've been working her head and they always
42:56
Speaker 1: inspired me. I actually played like some of my songs
42:59
Speaker 1: in the trailer for like Brandy even we lost it,
43:03
Speaker 1: and they're like a girl put it out. I feel
43:06
Speaker 1: like now that obviously Queens has taken a lot of
43:08
Speaker 1: my time, I've turned into a rapper again, but I
43:11
Speaker 1: still definitely am singing. I'm gonna be We're working with
43:14
Speaker 1: Troy Taylor actually, who's vocally coaching us as well, so
43:18
Speaker 1: I'm back in the studio. But I just want to
43:20
Speaker 1: make sure I give this the focus and attention and
43:22
Speaker 1: then hopefully by the time this blows up, I'll be
43:25
Speaker 1: able to drop some some new music. She sings. She
43:28
Speaker 1: sings a song I can't tell you that's a surprise.
43:33
Speaker 1: But sorry, sorry. What made your old take up partner nitory?
43:39
Speaker 1: You just left power, So what made you say, you
43:40
Speaker 1: know what, I want to be a part of Queens?
43:42
Speaker 1: What was like intriguing to you? This script? Honestly, this
43:45
Speaker 1: script I never forget. When my agent called me, was
43:48
Speaker 1: like you know would like you for the show, and
43:50
Speaker 1: the first time I have not had to audition, which
43:52
Speaker 1: is really a big deal. Really or a black actress
43:55
Speaker 1: in Hollywood. Let me tell y'all how hard it is
43:57
Speaker 1: to get it straight off for the ben't do that
44:01
Speaker 1: after power, Okay, because of success, power, because of yes,
44:04
Speaker 1: I presume, I hope, um. But I was just so
44:08
Speaker 1: excited because I read the script and I was like,
44:10
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, it's a black man who's writing it.
44:12
Speaker 1: We have a great team behind us. Tim's story who's
44:16
Speaker 1: directed tons of stuff. Yeah, Tim Stories, legendary um Sabrina
44:20
Speaker 1: Winn from ABC Signature. We have so many dope people
44:23
Speaker 1: that I said yes because it's different from my character.
44:26
Speaker 1: I did not want people to type cast me into
44:28
Speaker 1: being the wife of a drug dealer for the rest
44:30
Speaker 1: of my crip. I'll beat a drug dealer next time,
44:33
Speaker 1: but drug I'm killed, My baby, I still love you.
44:40
Speaker 1: But you tube say you coming back though, but that's
44:42
Speaker 1: another story. They always wanted it goes to come back.
44:44
Speaker 1: But I just said yes because I believed in it,
44:50
Speaker 1: and I knew that when I heard Eve and then
44:52
Speaker 1: they said Brandy because we talked where we both got
44:55
Speaker 1: our offers and I was like, oh, And then meeting Nadine,
44:58
Speaker 1: I just knew it would be special. So I was
45:00
Speaker 1: excited to start something new for me. I gotta be honest.
45:04
Speaker 1: When I first heard the premise, I was like, this
45:06
Speaker 1: could go real bad, Like this could be real bad.
45:13
Speaker 1: Then I spoke to my ear, I spoke to Zia
45:15
Speaker 1: McGhee and Sabrina when we did a zoom and the
45:17
Speaker 1: way Zayre explained to me what it was and what
45:20
Speaker 1: he wanted and the authenticity of what he wanted, I
45:23
Speaker 1: was like, okay, cool. Read the script and fell in
45:25
Speaker 1: love and I was like, actually, this is gonna be
45:27
Speaker 1: really special because for me, it wasn't just about the music.
45:30
Speaker 1: It was about what are the women. Who are the
45:32
Speaker 1: women and how deep they get with them their relationship
45:35
Speaker 1: but also in their lives. Like if we're going twenty
45:37
Speaker 1: years later, like it can't be us just really trying
45:40
Speaker 1: to fall back and just do music. It needs to
45:42
Speaker 1: be about who we are as women. Um, and it's
45:45
Speaker 1: the scripts are amazing, So yeah, yeah, same. You know,
45:49
Speaker 1: I met with Zahara McGhee and I met with Sabrina
45:51
Speaker 1: and we just we just hit it off. And when
45:53
Speaker 1: I got the script, I was like, oh my god.
45:55
Speaker 1: It's sometimes it's hard for me to just read scripts
45:58
Speaker 1: all the way through. Sometimes I skipped over to the
45:59
Speaker 1: park that I'm supposed to play my little lines. But
46:05
Speaker 1: when it was a page turner and I felt so
46:08
Speaker 1: many emotions, like I cried, I laughed everything I could
46:11
Speaker 1: relate to every character. And then of course music being
46:13
Speaker 1: my first love, I'm like, oh my god, I get
46:15
Speaker 1: to sing and rap. This is amazing. So and then
46:18
Speaker 1: to then for it to be about women empowerment and
46:21
Speaker 1: you know, friendships coming back together through music, It's just
46:25
Speaker 1: it was just unbelievable, and it's so parallel to my life,
46:28
Speaker 1: like to get, you know, the second chance, to you know,
46:30
Speaker 1: be all that you're supposed to be. I just think
46:32
Speaker 1: that that was such a great message. And I'm here
46:35
Speaker 1: all right. We got more with the Queens, even Tor,
46:38
Speaker 1: Brandy and Nadine. When we come back, don't move. It's
46:40
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Envy Angela yee. Charlemagne, the
46:44
Speaker 1: guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it
46:46
Speaker 1: with the Queens. We have the Tori, Eve, Brandy and
46:49
Speaker 1: Nadine for last question. Now, ye, now I can imagine
46:51
Speaker 1: there's a lot of guest appearances on the show like this,
46:54
Speaker 1: so yeah, yeah and just some more yeah coming out
47:04
Speaker 1: there actually coming attack Nicki Minaj, but was yeah Nicki
47:07
Speaker 1: Minaj actually yea, she saw you know, my rhyme on there,
47:12
Speaker 1: and then she commented, so that's amazing, that's all coming
47:16
Speaker 1: from Nicki Minaj. Yeah, she's like hopefully amazing when the
47:19
Speaker 1: show premier, I think that's what I think, that's what
47:21
Speaker 1: people are waiting for to because waiting to see what
47:23
Speaker 1: it's gonna be. Yeah, because ultimately, I think a lot
47:26
Speaker 1: of people, especially being an artist, if you because I
47:29
Speaker 1: even said this, I was like, if I had gotten
47:31
Speaker 1: a call, if I wasn't in the cast, but I
47:33
Speaker 1: got the call to be like, can you come on
47:34
Speaker 1: the show to be yourself? I probably would say no
47:36
Speaker 1: because I would want to come on to be an actress.
47:39
Speaker 1: So I think when people see the show, they'll understand
47:41
Speaker 1: the premise that they oh, okay, I get it because
47:44
Speaker 1: we're you know, meshing everything together and it's gonna be okay.
47:46
Speaker 1: But right, yeah, Brandy, did you see a couple of
47:49
Speaker 1: weeks ago they just found out and oh my god,
47:52
Speaker 1: oh my god, that was So that was so interesting
47:56
Speaker 1: because you know, people didn't put two and two together.
47:58
Speaker 1: I guess because of the generation, and you know, it's
48:01
Speaker 1: just different. Like we we came out at what in
48:03
Speaker 1: the nineties, you know, so a lot of the new
48:05
Speaker 1: generation didn't know that we were and sister. You know,
48:09
Speaker 1: Ray went off on his own, you know, his own path,
48:12
Speaker 1: and you know I stayed on mine. So you know,
48:15
Speaker 1: sometimes they could be like, oh, are they brother and sister?
48:17
Speaker 1: Are they not? So how do they do it? How's
48:19
Speaker 1: he doing? Ray's good? He sees out of the hospital,
48:21
Speaker 1: you know, pho, pneumonia, thing is is clear. So I'm
48:24
Speaker 1: just happy for him. I think that was God's way
48:27
Speaker 1: of saying, you need to slow down. Yeah, that's your friend.
48:34
Speaker 1: I thought down he did. But then you know, with
48:37
Speaker 1: his tech, you know, really taking off, he's like really
48:40
Speaker 1: he is. But now he has help so he doesn't
48:45
Speaker 1: have to do too much of the every day you know,
48:47
Speaker 1: the day to day stuff. So not even this show
48:50
Speaker 1: one of the reasons you left to talk, No, no,
48:53
Speaker 1: it's not. The COVID was the main reason. And being home,
48:58
Speaker 1: like being home with my man and realizing we actually
49:00
Speaker 1: really like each other still and also still but also
49:05
Speaker 1: not getting being on the plane like when I was
49:06
Speaker 1: doing the talk, I was on there for three and
49:08
Speaker 1: a half years. I was traveling back and forth every
49:10
Speaker 1: two weeks from LA to London like or he was
49:14
Speaker 1: doing it. So by the time I sat down, I
49:16
Speaker 1: was like I was a zombie for real. So yeah,
49:19
Speaker 1: and then this just happened to come up because I
49:20
Speaker 1: talked to Zaire before I even left the talk about
49:23
Speaker 1: this show. So it just all happened at this like
49:26
Speaker 1: the right time. You know, I know you've been open
49:28
Speaker 1: about your fertility. Yeah, so you think that being able
49:31
Speaker 1: to have a time at home actually helped you. It
49:33
Speaker 1: helped me a ton, But it also helped me really
49:36
Speaker 1: because real life, you know, people say it takes a
49:38
Speaker 1: village to raise kids. It takes a village sometimes to
49:40
Speaker 1: help you get pregnant. Because my doctor shout out to
49:43
Speaker 1: doctor Ali Abadi, I had fourteen five roids that I
49:46
Speaker 1: didn't even know about. So I had to get a
49:48
Speaker 1: miama to me, which is a procedure to get the
49:50
Speaker 1: five broids out. But she was the only doctor who
49:53
Speaker 1: went that deep like got me an mri Like she
49:56
Speaker 1: was like you could try and try and try, You're
49:57
Speaker 1: never gonna get pregnant. Te really these things, but no
49:59
Speaker 1: other doctor told me this. She helped me get pregnant,
50:02
Speaker 1: but I said, and people don't talk of people do
50:06
Speaker 1: not talk about this in demetriosis five broids like please,
50:09
Speaker 1: and also periods are not supposed to be painful. As women,
50:12
Speaker 1: we've been told that for years and years and years
50:14
Speaker 1: and years, and I never knew that. So I love
50:17
Speaker 1: this woman so much because this is what helped me.
50:20
Speaker 1: But staying home also made me really get into like,
50:22
Speaker 1: all right, I need to get in my uterine health.
50:24
Speaker 1: Like as women, that's just something we should do. So
50:26
Speaker 1: I'm very thankful, very thankful. February. Uterine health looks like
50:36
Speaker 1: going to the right doctors that listen to your concerns,
50:40
Speaker 1: because sometimes we get told, oh, well that's how it's
50:42
Speaker 1: supposed to be. No, if there's something wrong, there's something wrong.
50:45
Speaker 1: And guess what if I need an MRI, I give
50:46
Speaker 1: me an MRI. I don't care how young you think
50:48
Speaker 1: I am. Like something is wrong. And as women, most people,
50:52
Speaker 1: we are our own our own advocates. Anyway, most of
50:56
Speaker 1: us know instinctually, especially women, something's going on. And so
50:59
Speaker 1: if you feel all that please do it, because if
51:01
Speaker 1: I didn't go to this woman, I wouldn't be here
51:04
Speaker 1: where I am now. And that's one hundred person. You know.
51:06
Speaker 1: I like hearing you say that because like a lot
51:08
Speaker 1: of times, people think, um, that only happens to people
51:11
Speaker 1: who don't have to mean no, no, no, I can
51:16
Speaker 1: I tell you it happened to the doctor who did me.
51:18
Speaker 1: She's like the head at ceter Sini. She had breast
51:21
Speaker 1: cancer and they told her she didn't. This is a
51:24
Speaker 1: woman who's the head, Like it happens to everyone. You
51:28
Speaker 1: have to be your own advocate at every level. Seriously,
51:32
Speaker 1: Yeah we knew, Yeah you see versus the other day
51:36
Speaker 1: kiss one, I didn't know. I missed it. I missed it.
51:39
Speaker 1: You would have loved it. I'm at this highest point
51:44
Speaker 1: legend and yeah, I need to look at that. Did
51:46
Speaker 1: you love yours? Well? What's crazy is I that's when
51:49
Speaker 1: I just found out I was I literally knewly was pregnant.
51:55
Speaker 1: And I was stressed the out because my stylust didn't
51:59
Speaker 1: bring me no clothes that whole day. I had a
52:02
Speaker 1: meltdown right before we went on. So I loved it
52:06
Speaker 1: because it was Trina and thank God, and it was
52:08
Speaker 1: Swiss and he took care of me, and Swiss knew,
52:10
Speaker 1: which is why I didn't fly to Miami. I was
52:12
Speaker 1: supposed to fly to Miami, and at the last minute
52:13
Speaker 1: I didn't. I had to tell Swiss and he was like,
52:16
Speaker 1: all good, since we got you. Of course, my brother,
52:18
Speaker 1: I love him so much. Thank god it was Trina
52:20
Speaker 1: because I love me some Trina so much. I was
52:22
Speaker 1: sad I didn't Hugger like I love was killed and
52:25
Speaker 1: everybody was wondering why wasn't. That is the reason I'm
52:29
Speaker 1: all in the comment same sense, and people would be
52:31
Speaker 1: coming up with other all times to be in the
52:36
Speaker 1: same room. That's the only person I knew at that
52:38
Speaker 1: time was my management, my husband and Swiss trainers, my people,
52:46
Speaker 1: people like I loved Trina to the death. Oh my god,
52:50
Speaker 1: Yes that's my people. People people like for real. Like
52:53
Speaker 1: in the beginning of my in the business, when I started, me,
52:56
Speaker 1: Trina and Missy would hang out all the time because
52:58
Speaker 1: I lived in New York, so I would just go
52:59
Speaker 1: to Miami and they always missing. Was like our big sister,
53:02
Speaker 1: like she held us down and yeah, so that's my
53:05
Speaker 1: people people. And Trina treated me so good. I recorded
53:08
Speaker 1: my second album there and while I was there, it
53:11
Speaker 1: was like the city was open. She just made sure
53:13
Speaker 1: everything was right. Never since then, we've been great. That's
53:15
Speaker 1: why I felt like a celebration with y'all. Yeah, and
53:18
Speaker 1: that's why we wanted. I mean, she killed it, though,
53:21
Speaker 1: she murdered it though, Like I was really sad that
53:24
Speaker 1: I wasn't there to shake my ass like a little bit.
53:26
Speaker 1: But I was also comments like I can't believe I'm
53:36

Speaker 1: for all of us it was crazy. For me, it
53:56
Speaker 1: was I knew a lot, a little more than most
53:58
Speaker 1: people because of swiss Um. But I have to say, like, honestly,
54:07

Speaker 1: was the purest man, Like his energy was the purest.
54:25
Speaker 1: He was crazy, but that it was pure energy. He
54:28
Speaker 1: was one of the most special people I have ever
54:30
Speaker 1: met ever Um, and he was unfortunately troubled, and I
54:34
Speaker 1: do feel like he was at peace, and it was
54:38
Speaker 1: hard and horrible, and but in a weird way, I'm
54:42
Speaker 1: of course sad for his family. I'm saff for his
54:43
Speaker 1: beautiful kids. I'm sad for all of his family and
54:46

Speaker 1: of color leading a show on network television and not
55:25
Speaker 1: be compromising the work, not doing like just not saying
55:30

56:57
Speaker 1: This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on the
57:00
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Well, Carl Anthony Towns was on Taraji p
57:05
Speaker 1: Henson's Peace of Mind with Taragi and he talked about
57:10
Speaker 1: the mental health complications and implications of suffering numerous losses
57:14
Speaker 1: and how he's been coping with that one thing he
57:17
Speaker 1: talked about is having survivor's guilt because he does have
57:20
Speaker 1: eight relatives who we lost to COVID. I feel bad because,
57:25
Speaker 1: you know, I wish when I went through my COVID
57:27
Speaker 1: thing and even as bad as a guy, and it
57:29
Speaker 1: got pretty close to having the same amount of COVID
57:31
Speaker 1: like my mom had I did. But I felt really
57:35
Speaker 1: bad because I was like, I wish that other families
57:38
Speaker 1: who weren't making max money and the NBA could get
57:41
Speaker 1: the same treatment and share more memories with each other. Yeah,
57:45
Speaker 1: you know, I don't want anyone to feel the way
57:47
Speaker 1: I felt. So I felt a lot of survivor's guild
57:50
Speaker 1: because I was just like I wish, I wish they
57:51
Speaker 1: had the resources I had. And Karl Anthony Towns of
57:54
Speaker 1: course as an NBA player, he from a Jersey and
57:56
Speaker 1: it's a New Jersey Emily. Yeah, he plays for the
57:58
Speaker 1: Minnesota Timberwolves. And by the way, he also talked about
58:03
Speaker 1: he's Dominican too, Dominican Dominican, Dominican Dominican. You know, his
58:07
Speaker 1: mother passed away from COVID, so you know that was
58:09
Speaker 1: really difficult for him. And he's also dating Jordan Woods,
58:12
Speaker 1: all right. He also talked about not going to therapy
58:15
Speaker 1: and how after losing his mom he did manage to
58:18
Speaker 1: get himself in a relationship with Jordan and how much
58:20
Speaker 1: that helped him. I have not gotten therapy. I'm a
58:23
Speaker 1: big advocate for it. I just didn't have time to
58:26
Speaker 1: drop everything off my shoulders. But did you ever grieve?
58:31
Speaker 1: How are you doing? I just got a lot of
58:33
Speaker 1: you know, like I don't have the time. I look
58:36
Speaker 1: at it as like the most valuable thing I have.
58:38
Speaker 1: I'd rather waste a lot of money than waste my time.
58:41
Speaker 1: And I didn't want to go to therapy and not
58:44
Speaker 1: be ready to talk because then I'm just sitting there.
58:47
Speaker 1: But a woman that meant so much to me in
58:49
Speaker 1: my life left my life to be replaced by another
58:52
Speaker 1: woman to take that spot. Well, you know, to look
58:56
Speaker 1: to that brother man. You know, I sent him healing
58:57
Speaker 1: energy and he's got to find some healing somewhere. You know,
59:00
Speaker 1: you gotta give yourself time to grieve, because if you
59:02
Speaker 1: don't deal with your trauma, your trauma is eventually gonna
59:04
Speaker 1: deal with you, and you cannot run from yourself. You know,
59:07
Speaker 1: like staying busy being you know, staying busy is actually
59:10
Speaker 1: a trauma response, because you're trying to stay busy because
59:12
Speaker 1: you know, once you sit still, everything's gonna hit you
59:15
Speaker 1: all at once. You got to deal with that. But
59:17
Speaker 1: he did say that Jordan actually helped him a lot.
59:19
Speaker 1: He leaned on her. She's one of those the only
59:21
Speaker 1: people who would actually know how he was feeling. She
59:24
Speaker 1: was super close with her father, just and her father
59:26
Speaker 1: also passed away four years ago, And he said that
59:30
Speaker 1: she's really helped him learn a lot more about being
59:33
Speaker 1: a man in the world. He learned that the male
59:36
Speaker 1: ego is the most sensitive and most dangerous thing the
59:38
Speaker 1: world has to offer, and all of that. So that's
59:41
Speaker 1: good for him at least that he does have somebody
59:43
Speaker 1: who he can talk to and lean on. Yeah, especially
59:46
Speaker 1: if she went through the whole process, you know, and
59:48
Speaker 1: you know she actually, you know, dealt with her her
59:50
Speaker 1: grief process, Like I wonder how she went through her
59:52
Speaker 1: grief process, because then she can you help him get
59:54
Speaker 1: through his all? Right, Kanye West has legally changed his name.
59:58
Speaker 1: His name is no first name, no middle name, no
1:00:02
Speaker 1: last name, So for legal purposes, a judge has approved
1:00:05
Speaker 1: that name change. So there you have it. He is
1:00:08
Speaker 1: now YEA A lot of people tag me on that,
1:00:10
Speaker 1: but my name is not Yea. My name YE still
1:00:13

Speaker 1: Achievement Award. He posted, God is key blessed. This is
1:00:23
Speaker 1: Hughes coming from where we come from. We never received
1:00:26
Speaker 1: things like this. In all honesty, I don't agree with
1:00:28
Speaker 1: much of nothing we've been going through as people in
1:00:30
Speaker 1: this world lately, and we still fight for us against whatever.
1:00:33
Speaker 1: I know. I can't question God's reasons for what he
1:00:36
Speaker 1: has planned for me, so I will accept it and
1:00:37
Speaker 1: keep working at Relief Gang. It's crazy to say I

Speaker 1: one for trade to truth. All right. And Jamie Fox
1:00:58
Speaker 1: he was on Ian News's Daily Pop and he said,
1:01:02
Speaker 1: and An's new book, by the way, act like you
1:01:03
Speaker 1: got some sense. And one thing he talked about was
1:01:06
Speaker 1: his decision, his decision to not ever get married. I
1:01:09
Speaker 1: didn't think that was me. And then if you look
1:01:11
Speaker 1: at my daughters in their circumstance growing up, Krim was like, well,
1:01:15
Speaker 1: people were married and you know, that's what they have
1:01:18
Speaker 1: and my friends. But then a lot of those marriages
1:01:22
Speaker 1: ended up not doing well as the kids got older. Unfortunately,
1:01:26
Speaker 1: we saw the kids get fractured from their families. Us
1:01:30
Speaker 1: we actually came together more. So. I don't know what
1:01:33
Speaker 1: that is. I just know that it is different, but
1:01:35
Speaker 1: I know it's a whole lot of love. You know,
1:01:37
Speaker 1: the pressure of me being married. His family even talk
1:01:40
Speaker 1: about it. They just loved their daddy, all right, Hey,
1:01:43
Speaker 1: as long as it worked for him, they loved it. Daddy.
1:01:45
Speaker 1: He loves his family, his daughters. They have a close bond.
1:01:49
Speaker 1: And that is your rumor report. All right, thank you,
1:01:52
Speaker 1: miss see charlemagn who giving a dog? Two oh man,
1:01:55
Speaker 1: we need a young brother to come to the front
1:01:57
Speaker 1: of the congregation. I don't want to say his name.
1:01:59
Speaker 1: I don't want to get off his social media handle.
1:02:01
Speaker 1: But if you've seen the video of the brother wilding
1:02:04
Speaker 1: out in the subway, we must discuss it as a
1:02:07
Speaker 1: teachable moment in this people. All right, we'll get to
1:02:09
Speaker 1: that next. It's the breakfast Club. Come Morning, Breakfast Club,

Speaker 1: dot com. Slash Breakfast Club for Donkey of the Day
1:02:41
Speaker 1: to being Dunky of the Day a little bit of
1:02:43
Speaker 1: a mixed club, so like a Donkey day. Now. I've
1:02:51
Speaker 1: been called a lot in my twenty three years, but
1:02:53
Speaker 1: Donkey of the Day is a new wife. Wow. Donkey
1:02:56
Speaker 1: here today for Tuesday, October nineteenth goes to a man
1:02:59
Speaker 1: whose name I will not say, number one because I
1:03:01
Speaker 1: don't know his government name. All I know is his
1:03:03
Speaker 1: social media handle. But if I knew his government I
1:03:06
Speaker 1: probably still wouldn't say it. Because we have to stop
1:03:08
Speaker 1: giving the cloud chases amongst us attention. I don't even
1:03:11
Speaker 1: like saying the phrase cloud chaser, cloud chase. It sounds
1:03:14
Speaker 1: cloud chaser, sounds cute, okay, and sometimes that term cloud
1:03:18
Speaker 1: chaser trivializes the horrible things humans are doing, okay. In
1:03:23
Speaker 1: Front Page News, Angel Laye told us this story of
1:03:26
Speaker 1: a woman being raped on a sept to train in Philadelphia,
1:03:30
Speaker 1: while writers failed to intervene because they were too busy,
1:03:33
Speaker 1: you know, recording what was happening on their smartphones. All right.
1:03:36
Speaker 1: They didn't put out their phones to call nine one one.
1:03:39
Speaker 1: They put out their phones to record, all right, for
1:03:41
Speaker 1: whatever reason. I don't know. I can only think probably
1:03:44
Speaker 1: to upload to their social media accounts. We live in
1:03:47
Speaker 1: a society now where people would rather record for their
1:03:50
Speaker 1: social media and write some performative caption about being outraged
1:03:55
Speaker 1: and protecting women instead of actually in that moment doing
1:03:58
Speaker 1: something that would absolutely protect said woman. All right. The
1:04:01
Speaker 1: story in Philly, and the story I'm about to tell
1:04:03
Speaker 1: you is more proof that this society has become desensitized
1:04:08
Speaker 1: to violence and also totally detached from reality due to
1:04:14
Speaker 1: social media. This brother is totally detached from reality. Now.
1:04:18
Speaker 1: Yesterday or maybe this weekend, there was a video of
1:04:20
Speaker 1: a brother working in subway salute the subway, dropping a
1:04:24
Speaker 1: cluesbox or subway. Okay, I don't know about y'all, but
1:04:27
Speaker 1: subway has brought me a lot of joy in my life.
1:04:29
Speaker 1: I know. I know their tune is not really tuna
1:04:31
Speaker 1: it's a mixture of various concoctions. But I would not
1:04:34
Speaker 1: sit there and act like that foot long tuna sandwich
1:04:37
Speaker 1: on wheat are white with a dappa ranch, pickles and tomatoes.
1:04:41
Speaker 1: Isn't hitting all right? Dropping a clues box or subway
1:04:44
Speaker 1: getting damagized? Right sidebar? Just the question, if you don't
1:04:48
Speaker 1: agree with the COVID vaccine because you don't know what's
1:04:51
Speaker 1: in it, how do you rationalize eating subway tuna? Just
1:04:54
Speaker 1: asking for a vaccinated friend? But listen this brother, and
1:04:57
Speaker 1: I okay, you know, and I really don't want to
1:05:00
Speaker 1: say a social media handle because you know, folks don't
1:05:03
Speaker 1: care about good or bad attention. All they care about
1:05:06
Speaker 1: his numbers as long as those numbers being ran up
1:05:08
Speaker 1: on whatever the videos they had posted, they feel like
1:05:11
Speaker 1: they lit. Now what was this young man doing in
1:05:13
Speaker 1: the video? Well, he was playing with your food, all right.
1:05:17
Speaker 1: He decided to vandilize subway. He was purposefully spilling food
1:05:20
Speaker 1: contents all over the floor. He was emptying you know,
1:05:23
Speaker 1: the silver tubs of ingredients, you know, the silver joints
1:05:25
Speaker 1: they keep the tomatoes and the pickles, and the black olives,
1:05:28
Speaker 1: the peppers. He was emptying those all over the floor right.
1:05:31
Speaker 1: He also recorded himself walking across the food before placing
1:05:35
Speaker 1: tubs back behind the counter to later use on customer sandwiches.
1:05:39
Speaker 1: He was also drinking soda out of the bottle and
1:05:41
Speaker 1: putting it back, and he filmed himself putting food on
1:05:44
Speaker 1: the toilet seat. Last week, he posted another video in
1:05:47
Speaker 1: which he said f subway before throwing trays of bread
1:05:50
Speaker 1: on the floor and walking across him. Yeah, all Setting
1:05:54
Speaker 1: CARDI were absolutely correct when they said people would do
1:05:56
Speaker 1: anything for cloud. Well, this guy wasn't to just any
1:06:00
Speaker 1: kind of cloud. He wanted something specific. In fact, he
1:06:04
Speaker 1: did this because he wanted a record deal. I can't
1:06:09
Speaker 1: make this kind of stuff up listening to this brother,
1:06:15
Speaker 1: go to subway, all of this subway s bro at
1:06:19
Speaker 1: Meek Millman. Let him know I'm trying to sign chas. Bro.
1:06:29
Speaker 1: I'm done working in subway. I'm not with none of
1:06:31
Speaker 1: this cloud chasing, Bro, all of this cloud chasing temporary
1:06:35
Speaker 1: bro that as. I don't want to do this everything.
1:06:37
Speaker 1: I'll throw everything on the floor. Man, If this is
1:06:39
Speaker 1: what I gotta do to get on, this is what
1:06:41
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do to get on, Bro. This is what
1:06:44
Speaker 1: this is what you gotta do. It's either this or
1:06:46
Speaker 1: be in the streets awesome, dumb feel me. You know
1:06:49
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I try working a job. The job
1:06:51
Speaker 1: didn't worked out for me. Bro, I'm gonna keep doing
1:06:53
Speaker 1: this until I get on. Bro. I'm gonna get on
1:06:55
Speaker 1: one way or another. If I if I gotta call
1:06:57
Speaker 1: Chase My Way to the Top, I'm I'm gonna call
1:06:59
Speaker 1: Chase My to the Top at Meek Mill. Let them know,
1:07:02
Speaker 1: Bro signed your money to Dream Chases. I'm gonna work
1:07:05
Speaker 1: for it. You know what I'm saying. I don't need
1:07:07
Speaker 1: twenty K. I'll sign for free. Just give me an opportunity.
1:07:10
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take advantage of it. If I got a cloud,
1:07:14
Speaker 1: Chase my Way to the Top. That's what I'm gonna do.
1:07:18
Speaker 1: My brother, If you're trying to get a record deal,
1:07:20
Speaker 1: If you, you know, trying to sign to Dream Chases,
1:07:26
Speaker 1: where's the music? Where the raps are the singing? What
1:07:31
Speaker 1: about that video? Okay? What about the video you posted
1:07:35
Speaker 1: would make Meek Mill want to sign you to Dream Chases?
1:07:38
Speaker 1: Young King? I really want you to know who would
1:07:42
Speaker 1: employ you after seeing that video. I want you to
1:07:45
Speaker 1: ask yourself that question. Don't get it confused? Signing the
1:07:47
Speaker 1: dream Chases would be a job. Okay, your dream job, clearly,
1:07:50
Speaker 1: but a job nonetheless. But why would anyone employ you
1:07:54
Speaker 1: when they see how you act at your places of employment?
1:07:57
Speaker 1: See what you do with a little is exactly what
1:07:59
Speaker 1: you will do with a lot. I don't respect situational character,
1:08:03
Speaker 1: meaning that if your character changes based on your circumstances,
1:08:06
Speaker 1: then you're just not a real authentic person. Okay, circumstances
1:08:09
Speaker 1: shouldn't influence your character, all right, Listen, you know how
1:08:12
Speaker 1: you judge someone's true character. You watch how to treat
1:08:15
Speaker 1: people who can't do anything for him. Same with this job.
1:08:19
Speaker 1: Dude doesn't think Subway can do anything for him, So
1:08:21
Speaker 1: this is why he's treating his Subway job like this. Well,
1:08:23
Speaker 1: guess what he would act like this anywhere, any place, anytime, Okay,
1:08:28
Speaker 1: any place he goes to work. If he's not happy, disgruntled,
1:08:31
Speaker 1: if he feels like they aren't doing anything for him,
1:08:34
Speaker 1: he would act like this. So I ask again, why
1:08:36
Speaker 1: would anyone employ him after witnessing this? And he needs
1:08:41
Speaker 1: to ask himself that question. Why would anyone employ you
1:08:44
Speaker 1: after witnessing that? And if you're trying to get signed
1:08:46
Speaker 1: to dream Chases. What about this video would make me
1:08:50
Speaker 1: mill want to sign you? Do you remember the good
1:08:53
Speaker 1: old days, nv Andy, when artists wanted to be signed
1:08:56
Speaker 1: the labels, they would display their talentent? Remember those days? Yeah?
1:09:00
Speaker 1: Sings like so long ago? All right? This young brother
1:09:03
Speaker 1: is just more proof that social media brings out the
1:09:05
Speaker 1: absolute worst in everybody. Last week on my late night
1:09:10
Speaker 1: talk show to God's Honest Truth, I asked a simple question.
1:09:13
Speaker 1: The name of the episode the title Digital Devil. But
1:09:15
Speaker 1: I asked the simple question, is social media the devil?
1:09:19
Speaker 1: We had Tristan Harrison. He's from Netflix to Social Dilemma
1:09:23
Speaker 1: and host of Your Undivided Attention podcast. He used to
1:09:26
Speaker 1: work at Google. I asked him, is social media the devil?
1:09:29
Speaker 1: When you think of people just standing on a train
1:09:32
Speaker 1: pulling out their phone to record someone, you know, getting
1:09:35
Speaker 1: sexually assaulted, and you see this young brother tearing up
1:09:38
Speaker 1: subway because he wants a record deal with Dream Chases,
1:09:40
Speaker 1: that's a valid question. Let's listen to Tristan's response. This
1:09:45
Speaker 1: don't feel sustainable, man, that's not simple questions in social
1:09:52
Speaker 1: media to devil, You're not wrong. I think that it
1:09:55
Speaker 1: prais on the worst of human nature and vulnerabilities. In fact,
1:09:59
Speaker 1: people don't know. But the founder of LinkedIn said that
1:10:02
Speaker 1: every successful social media app praise on one or more
1:10:05
Speaker 1: of the seven deadly sins. And it's like the exon
1:10:08
Speaker 1: of the human vices, right. It pumps up our wrath,
1:10:11
Speaker 1: our anger, our jealousy, our voyeurism, our comparison, because those
1:10:15
Speaker 1: are the things that work at getting human attention. I
1:10:19
Speaker 1: thank god that I grew up in an era before
1:10:21
Speaker 1: social media. When you grew up in an era without it,
1:10:24
Speaker 1: you truly do understand what matters. And that's what I
1:10:26
Speaker 1: hope for all of you in this generation, not just
1:10:28
Speaker 1: the kids, the adults too. Sometimes you must disconnect in
1:10:31
Speaker 1: order to reconnect with what matters. Disconnect to reconnect with
1:10:36
Speaker 1: what matters, because the way we are moving now with
1:10:38
Speaker 1: social media is simply not sustainable as a society. But
1:10:41
Speaker 1: don't listen to me. Let's go back to Tristan Harris
1:10:43
Speaker 1: on The God's Honest Truth and ask him, just don't
1:10:46
Speaker 1: feel sustainable, man, Well, it's not sustainable in this model.
1:10:49
Speaker 1: When we're the product to Facebook, TikTok, etc. We're the tree.
1:10:52
Speaker 1: We're worth more as a dead slab of predictable human behavior.
1:10:56
Speaker 1: When you're doing this with your phone, that's the commodified
1:10:58
Speaker 1: like lumber of behavior. MM. Disconnect in order to reconnect
1:11:08
Speaker 1: with what matters. Please give that young brother in subway
1:11:11
Speaker 1: to Biggesty Hall. I'm telling you, man, disconnect in order
1:11:20
Speaker 1: to reconnect with what matters. And if you missed that
1:11:23
Speaker 1: episode of The God's Honest Truth for last week, go
1:11:26
Speaker 1: watching on demand All Screaming on Paramount Plus. And remember
1:11:30
Speaker 1: we on every Friday night at ten pm on Comedy Central. Okay,
1:11:34
Speaker 1: a lot of good information in that Digital Devil episode
1:11:37
Speaker 1: that we need because we are creating an era of emotionless,
1:11:40
Speaker 1: empathy less algorithms presenting as humans. All right, thank you,
1:11:48
Speaker 1: charlomagne Vy. What are you doing? What's on social media?
1:11:52
Speaker 1: I was on social media? My bad? All right? Thank
1:11:55
Speaker 1: you for that. Dog Get a day, sir. Now when
1:11:58
Speaker 1: we come back eight hundred five eight five one o
1:12:00
Speaker 1: five one, we're talking Jamie Fox. Now, Jamie Fox recently
1:12:04
Speaker 1: said this about marriage in an interview. I didn't think
1:12:06
Speaker 1: that was me. And then if you look at my
1:12:08
Speaker 1: daughters in their circumstance growing up, Krim was like, well,
1:12:12
Speaker 1: people are married, and you know that's what they have
1:12:15
Speaker 1: and my friends. But then a lot of those marriages
1:12:19
Speaker 1: ended up not doing well as the kids got older. Unfortunately,
1:12:23
Speaker 1: we saw the kids get fractured from their families. Us
1:12:26
Speaker 1: we actually came together more so. I don't know what
1:12:29
Speaker 1: that is. I just know that it is different, but
1:12:32
Speaker 1: I know it's a whole lot of love, you know,
1:12:34
Speaker 1: the pressure of me being married. Family even talk about it.
1:12:37
Speaker 1: They just love their daddy. All right. Let's open up
1:12:39
Speaker 1: the phone lines eight hundred five eight five one o
1:12:41
Speaker 1: five one. If you haven't got married yet, why if
1:12:44
Speaker 1: you don't want to get married, why let's talk about
1:12:46
Speaker 1: it right eight five eight five one on five one.
1:12:50
Speaker 1: If you agree with Jamie Fox, call us now. It's
1:12:52
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning, your phone in right now
1:12:56
Speaker 1: call me at your opinion to the Breakfast Club topic
1:13:01
Speaker 1: breaking down eight hundred five A five one oh five
1:13:03
Speaker 1: one the Breakfast Club. It's topic time on the phone
1:13:15
Speaker 1: called eight hundred five A five one oh five wanted
1:13:17
Speaker 1: to join it to the discussion with the Breakfast Club,
1:13:19
Speaker 1: talk about it morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee.
1:13:24
Speaker 1: Charlemagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club on this Tuesday.
1:13:27
Speaker 1: Now if he just joined us. We're talking about getting married. Now,
1:13:31
Speaker 1: this was an interview that Jamie Foxx didn't This was
1:13:33
Speaker 1: his conversation on marriage. I didn't think that was me.
1:13:36
Speaker 1: And then if you look at my daughters and their
1:13:38
Speaker 1: circumstance growing up, Krim was like, well, people are married,
1:13:42
Speaker 1: and you know, that's what they had and my friends.
1:13:45
Speaker 1: But then a lot of those marriages ended up not
1:13:49
Speaker 1: doing well as the kids got older. Unfortunately, we saw
1:13:53
Speaker 1: the kids getting fractured from their families. Us we actually
1:13:56
Speaker 1: came together more. So I don't know what that is.
1:13:59
Speaker 1: I just know that it is different, but I know
1:14:01
Speaker 1: it's a whole lot of love. You know, the pressure
1:14:03
Speaker 1: of me being married. They don't even talk about it.
1:14:06
Speaker 1: They just love the daddy. So asking eight hundred five,
1:14:09
Speaker 1: eight five one or five one. If you haven't got
1:14:11
Speaker 1: married yet, why that is the question. Why do you
1:14:13
Speaker 1: not want to get married? And what are your reasons?
1:14:15
Speaker 1: Let's start with you. Ye, Well, since I'm the one
1:14:17
Speaker 1: who's not married here, it's not that I don't want
1:14:20
Speaker 1: to get married. I just haven't felt like pressured to
1:14:23
Speaker 1: do it. You know, I'm older now, I'm really good
1:14:25
Speaker 1: being in my relationship and everything's pretty smooth. We don't
1:14:28
Speaker 1: have any kids, so I don't I just feel content
1:14:32
Speaker 1: with how our relationship is now. If that changes and
1:14:35
Speaker 1: we decide we want to get married, we'll do it.
1:14:37
Speaker 1: But I think it's you know, it just feels good,
1:14:40
Speaker 1: but you don't necessarily want to get married. It doesn't
1:14:43
Speaker 1: I don't feel I don't feel pressure to do that.
1:14:44
Speaker 1: I feel like I could be with you for the
1:14:46
Speaker 1: rest of my life, living in the same house and
1:14:48
Speaker 1: being together and in love and happy, and not feel
1:14:50
Speaker 1: like I have to get married. And I will say that,
1:14:54
Speaker 1: you know, I think maybe I'm a little jaded because
1:14:56
Speaker 1: a lot of people I know who are married either
1:14:59
Speaker 1: they're not in love anymore, things didn't work out. I
1:15:01
Speaker 1: only know a couple of people who are really happily married,
1:15:05
Speaker 1: and ray, you need more friends there. It's true. I
1:15:08
Speaker 1: have plenty of friends and family members, but you know,
1:15:11
Speaker 1: it's just a reality. That's why divorce rates are high.
1:15:13
Speaker 1: That's why I think anybody would tell you there's a
1:15:15
Speaker 1: lot of people who just aren't happily married, and I
1:15:18
Speaker 1: feel like, but it's a lot of people who are.
1:15:20
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying, but that's just like looking
1:15:21
Speaker 1: at one side of the situation. That's literally looking at
1:15:24
Speaker 1: the glass half for Well, I'm just saying about my
1:15:25
Speaker 1: personal experience, and I said, I never said I wasn't
1:15:28
Speaker 1: gonna get married. I just don't feel pressured to do it.
1:15:30
Speaker 1: And I feel like I could be happy with somebody
1:15:33
Speaker 1: and not feel married. And I am happily with somebody
1:15:35
Speaker 1: and we're not married. So if it's working, it's working. Yeah,
1:15:39
Speaker 1: I'm cool with that. I mean, I'm just talking about
1:15:41
Speaker 1: you know, you saying that you know a lot of
1:15:43
Speaker 1: people that you know aren't happily married, because there's actually
1:15:45
Speaker 1: studies that show like sixty four percent of Americans are
1:15:49
Speaker 1: very happy in their marriages. So I don't know, yeah,
1:15:53
Speaker 1: but need to meet some more married couples stead are
1:15:55
Speaker 1: more happy. Well, let's let's go to the phone lines
1:15:57
Speaker 1: with myself. I think, you know, my parents been together,
1:15:59
Speaker 1: I mean it feels like for one hundred and twenty years,
1:16:01
Speaker 1: so I've seen that growing up, and my wife's parents
1:16:04
Speaker 1: were together their whole life, So I see that. So
1:16:06
Speaker 1: it's something that I wanted to do. Let's go to
1:16:09
Speaker 1: the phone lines. Hold on, you know what else to
1:16:11
Speaker 1: do that I'm looking at this study now and it
1:16:13
Speaker 1: says the percentage of marriage better happy. The vast majority
1:16:17
Speaker 1: eighty six percent described their marriages as either very happy
1:16:21
Speaker 1: twenty four percent extremely happy. But I also saw fifty
1:16:26
Speaker 1: percent of all marriages, almost fifty percent will end in
1:16:28
Speaker 1: divorce a separation in the UK. I'm just saying, if
1:16:31
Speaker 1: you look at the number, so then let's say that's
1:16:33
Speaker 1: fifty percent, So then you're dealing with that fifty percent
1:16:36
Speaker 1: that's still left right, Yes, but that could We can
1:16:39
Speaker 1: do that with anything in life, like you can look
1:16:41
Speaker 1: always look at the bad side of things. But I'm not.
1:16:43
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that I wouldn't. I'm just saying I
1:16:45
Speaker 1: don't feel pressure. All right, Let's let's go to the
1:16:47
Speaker 1: phone lines. Hello, who's this morning? This mife, Mike, what's up? Bro?
1:16:53
Speaker 1: Good morning to talk to us brother about marriage. First
1:16:56
Speaker 1: of all, I want to say good morning to everyone.
1:16:58
Speaker 1: Charlottagne King. I need to gear you a specially shot
1:17:01
Speaker 1: out bro, like I never met you, I probably won't
1:17:03
Speaker 1: get to meet you, but I want to let you
1:17:05
Speaker 1: know man yo yo energy, and how you changed over
1:17:07
Speaker 1: these couple of years. Man, I didn't like you at first,
1:17:10
Speaker 1: and I thought be mad enough to say that I
1:17:12
Speaker 1: thought you was arrogant. The whole ego of what everybody
1:17:14
Speaker 1: thought about you was just that image that it looked
1:17:17
Speaker 1: like on the outside. But once you got to know
1:17:19
Speaker 1: you gonna listen to you. Man, you're one of my
1:17:21
Speaker 1: favorite people. Bro. Now now you want to marry him,
1:17:25
Speaker 1: don't listen to her. Thank you, King. I appreciate you.
1:17:29
Speaker 1: This out real quick because I'm actually I got to
1:17:31
Speaker 1: get to work, all right. So I've been with my
1:17:33
Speaker 1: girl eighteen years. Eighteen years. We're not married. But here's
1:17:37
Speaker 1: the thing. Everyone around us and our culture, you know,
1:17:41
Speaker 1: it never worked out. And I just say that on
1:17:43
Speaker 1: both ends. Her family and my family never worked out.
1:17:46
Speaker 1: People about you know, color kind of just you know,
1:17:48
Speaker 1: it didn't go the right weight, and so we wanted
1:17:50
Speaker 1: to take a different route. So we stayed together. Mind you,
1:17:52
Speaker 1: we've been together since we were fifteen. I'm thirty four now.
1:17:55
Speaker 1: So in these in these eight years, I speel like
1:18:00
Speaker 1: the love that we have for each other is so
1:18:03
Speaker 1: wrong and so real. A piece of paper could never
1:18:07
Speaker 1: define the true meaning of our love, even though we
1:18:10
Speaker 1: know the very spiritual people. And I will tell you
1:18:13
Speaker 1: the only reason why we ever wanted to get married
1:18:15
Speaker 1: was because of God. It wasn't because of the time.
1:18:19
Speaker 1: Wasn't because this is politically just supposed to do. And
1:18:23
Speaker 1: I will tell you I don't think we'll ever get
1:18:25
Speaker 1: married for the simple fact that I believe to you
1:18:28
Speaker 1: in my heart that if you get married sometimes it
1:18:31
Speaker 1: changes the dynamic of your love because of what society
1:18:35
Speaker 1: has made marriage to ourselves, women, the women you know,
1:18:40
Speaker 1: the pre nup, the whole idea of gold dig and
1:18:42
Speaker 1: the whole idea of true taking half of you, know
1:18:45
Speaker 1: everything from you. When I feel like real love, it's
1:18:48
Speaker 1: not defined by any of that. So it's like, I
1:18:50
Speaker 1: don't ever want my love to be in the same category.
1:18:54
Speaker 1: I love the mystique in the uniqueness of how people
1:18:58
Speaker 1: know that I've been with the same on in eighteen years,
1:19:01
Speaker 1: and a ring, a wedding, a title, none of that
1:19:05
Speaker 1: defines our love, like our love grows stronger every year,
1:19:08
Speaker 1: and that's how we're supposed to be in So take
1:19:11
Speaker 1: on that and then she's okay with that. Also that arrangement,
1:19:14
Speaker 1: she's very okay with. Okay, that's all that matters. I'm
1:19:17
Speaker 1: turning this is something that we both agree and it
1:19:20
Speaker 1: works for us. It won't work for everyone. But if
1:19:23
Speaker 1: you have to the seeding and that in order for
1:19:25
Speaker 1: you to really be happy, someone has to put a
1:19:27
Speaker 1: ring on your finger or put a title to your name.
1:19:31
Speaker 1: I don't think that's real because ninety nine percent of
1:19:33
Speaker 1: those marriages and I'm just saying it on some real stuff,
1:19:37
Speaker 1: it won't last. I don't know about you. You can't
1:19:42
Speaker 1: say that or doing it just for the name and
1:19:46
Speaker 1: the title that that's that's not real to me. Okay,
1:19:49
Speaker 1: thank you brother? Eight hundred five eight five one on five.
1:19:52
Speaker 1: When we're talking marriage. Uh, this came from a conversation
1:19:56
Speaker 1: or interview that Jimmie Fox had where he says, you know,
1:19:58
Speaker 1: he's not necessarily wanted to get married, and he gave
1:20:01
Speaker 1: the reasons why. So we're asking, are you not married?
1:20:03
Speaker 1: And what are the reasons? Let's talk about it as
1:20:04
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Go morning and your opinions to the
1:20:16
Speaker 1: breakfast club topic on eight five five one five one morning.
1:20:22
Speaker 1: Everybody's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are
1:20:27
Speaker 1: the breakfast Club. Now if you just joined us, we're
1:20:29
Speaker 1: talking about marriage now. This conversation comes from Jamie Fox. Right,
1:20:33
Speaker 1: let's listen. I didn't think that was me. And then
1:20:35
Speaker 1: if you look at my daughters in their circumstance growing up,
1:20:38
Speaker 1: Kran was like, well, people are married and you know
1:20:42
Speaker 1: that's what they have and my friends. But then a
1:20:45
Speaker 1: lot of those marriages ended up not doing well as
1:20:49
Speaker 1: the kids got older. Unfortunately, we saw the kids get
1:20:52
Speaker 1: fractured from their families. Us we actually came together more.
1:20:56
Speaker 1: So I don't know what that is. I just know
1:20:58
Speaker 1: that it is different, but I know what's a whole
1:21:00
Speaker 1: lot of love. You know, the pressure of me being married.
1:21:04
Speaker 1: They don't even talk about it. They just love the daddy.
1:21:06
Speaker 1: And that was an E News daily pop. Right, So
1:21:08
Speaker 1: we're asking, we're talking marriage this morning. If you're if
1:21:11
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get married or you don't want to
1:21:13
Speaker 1: get married, you want to know the reasons why. Now,
1:21:15
Speaker 1: we got a guy on the line who's been married before.
1:21:18
Speaker 1: Now he says he'll never get married again. Hello, who's this?
1:21:21
Speaker 1: You're this small from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Talk to us, bro.
1:21:24
Speaker 1: So I got married when I was younger. I was
1:21:26
Speaker 1: about maybe nineteen twenty. Me and my wife we've been
1:21:30
Speaker 1: together for a very long time. We got four before
1:21:32
Speaker 1: children together. But Mary don't mean nothing, because she divorced
1:21:35
Speaker 1: me after I messed up. We got back together, thinking
1:21:39
Speaker 1: that was it. I got my family back. Nah, that
1:21:41
Speaker 1: wasn't that out of you know, we broke up again.
1:21:44
Speaker 1: What did you do to mess up? Sir? I didn't
1:21:46
Speaker 1: mess up this time? No, No, you said you messed
1:21:50
Speaker 1: up and she left. What you do in the past?
1:21:52
Speaker 1: I cheated, all right, so she had trust issues. She
1:21:55
Speaker 1: probably couldn't get over those. Don't act like y'all just
1:21:58
Speaker 1: divorced for no reason. We did work, stam, but we
1:22:01
Speaker 1: got back together and we loved together about two years,
1:22:04
Speaker 1: and we're trying to make it work. I was doing
1:22:06
Speaker 1: the best I've ever done in my life, but that
1:22:09
Speaker 1: trauma just it just was you know, it's just too's
1:22:11
Speaker 1: eating out here and she just couldn't be with you
1:22:13
Speaker 1: no more. So now we split up, but I'm still
1:22:16
Speaker 1: working at it. You know, Mary, don't mean nothing. I
1:22:18
Speaker 1: don't feel like okay, Well you best up. So you
1:22:21
Speaker 1: said they'll never do it again. Hello, who's this'll poocho? Lock,
1:22:28
Speaker 1: it'll poocho something from love? Carolina? What that took us? Carolina?
1:22:32
Speaker 1: What's what's going on with you? All right? Um? I
1:22:36
Speaker 1: mean I don't really see the marriage thing. You know
1:22:39
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I mean I feel like if you
1:22:41
Speaker 1: like from twenty six to thirty fold like y'all still good.
1:22:44
Speaker 1: I mean y'all good, like like that that old school
1:22:47
Speaker 1: live about the window now man, like everybody's social media
1:22:50
Speaker 1: don't make perfect look easy. So like you got a
1:22:54
Speaker 1: woman in the hood, it won't working bags you got
1:22:57
Speaker 1: the dude and all he dished out mall thing like
1:23:00
Speaker 1: everybody called with intentions, you know what I'm saying, Like
1:23:03
Speaker 1: like look at Britan winner, like what you did, like
1:23:05
Speaker 1: I don't motivate me the one go Yeah, but you can't.
1:23:07
Speaker 1: You can't. You can't pick out one woman to say
1:23:10
Speaker 1: they don't like that. You can't do that. I like
1:23:13
Speaker 1: what you said social media that made perfect look easy.
1:23:15
Speaker 1: I like that though, like women like if you don't
1:23:20
Speaker 1: got your stuff all the way together on wann't you
1:23:22
Speaker 1: like that what you got going on together? Like were
1:23:23
Speaker 1: you at oh I'm over here? But you need to
1:23:28
Speaker 1: like man, you're like you damnitly you do damn if
1:23:31
Speaker 1: you don't need he said he had his mama house. Candice,
1:23:34
Speaker 1: come on to Candice, good morning. Now you said you
1:23:37
Speaker 1: never get married. No, I don't think I'm ever gonna
1:23:40
Speaker 1: get married. Well, I talk to us. Unfortunately, in our generation,
1:23:45
Speaker 1: people don't grow with your chains. They either get jealous,
1:23:48
Speaker 1: get different. They fall in love with who you were
1:23:51
Speaker 1: at that moment, They don't fall in love with the
1:23:53
Speaker 1: new you m. And how did you come to that
1:23:56
Speaker 1: conclusion my own relationship, say you were married or you
1:24:01
Speaker 1: we're about to No, no, no, I was never married.
1:24:04
Speaker 1: My own relationships experienced my parents, my grandparents. It's just
1:24:09
Speaker 1: like repetitive cycle. You're a setting or you're gonna grow
1:24:13
Speaker 1: with their team. So you can you see yourself with
1:24:16
Speaker 1: some Can you see yourself with somebody but not married,
1:24:19
Speaker 1: but just with somebody forever? Yeah? I can see that. Okay,
1:24:22
Speaker 1: But eventually we're gonna grow and we're either going to
1:24:26
Speaker 1: stay together. She's going to get a new part or
1:24:28
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a new part and I we're gonna
1:24:29
Speaker 1: tolerate that. That's why I think open marriage is really work. Okay,
1:24:33
Speaker 1: that's a whole other issue. All right, I feel you.
1:24:37
Speaker 1: She's not trying to be with you forever either, exactly.
1:24:41
Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you think. So what's the moral
1:24:43
Speaker 1: of the story. I mean, I think you really just
1:24:45
Speaker 1: have to do whatever works for you when it comes
1:24:47
Speaker 1: to relationships. She just said open marriage is what she
1:24:50
Speaker 1: can see for herself in the future. Some people are saying,
1:24:53
Speaker 1: you know, we've been together eighteen years and we're not
1:24:55
Speaker 1: ever gonna get married, but we're happy that way. Some
1:24:58
Speaker 1: people feel like marriage is the best thing for them,
1:25:00
Speaker 1: but nobody should judge what anybody else is doing based
1:25:03
Speaker 1: on their experience. I agree, different strokes with different folks.
1:25:06
Speaker 1: If you want to get married, more power to you.
1:25:07
Speaker 1: If you don't want to get married, more power to you.
1:25:09
Speaker 1: If you're happily married, More power to you. If you
1:25:11
Speaker 1: were married and don't want to get married ever again,
1:25:13
Speaker 1: more power to you. But don't use the excuse that
1:25:16
Speaker 1: marriages don't work anyway, so I'll never get married, because
1:25:19
Speaker 1: you could literally say that about everything you're doing in life.
1:25:23
Speaker 1: You open a business, well guess what, the business may
1:25:24
Speaker 1: not work. You start a diet, you may not stick
1:25:26
Speaker 1: to it. So whatever you know, whatever you do, is
1:25:29
Speaker 1: your thing, that's all. So you're saying don't try it,
1:25:31
Speaker 1: don't don't don't knock it to you try I'm not
1:25:33
Speaker 1: saying that. I'm saying, whatever you I'm saying different strokes
1:25:36
Speaker 1: with different folk, different saying don't knock it. I'm just saying,
1:25:38
Speaker 1: don't knock get period. Whatever you're just proposing to him
1:25:41
Speaker 1: and nothing. I'm literally just I'm just literally saying, don't knocking,
1:25:45
Speaker 1: period because you would not do that with anything else
1:25:48
Speaker 1: in your life, and you don't start something and say,
1:25:51
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm not going to do that because
1:25:52
Speaker 1: I saw it not work over here. Like no, all right,
1:25:55
Speaker 1: well we got rumors on the way. Yes, and let's
1:25:57
Speaker 1: talk about Kim Kardashian. She has bought the La Home
1:26:01
Speaker 1: from Kanye West amidst their divorce. And we'll tell you
1:26:03
Speaker 1: how much she paid for it. She bought it from
1:26:05
Speaker 1: ya Yep, had to be for like a dollar. We'll
1:26:07
Speaker 1: talk about the next It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
1:26:10
Speaker 1: the Breakfast clubs oh reports, it's the club well amidst
1:26:25
Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian and Kanye it's aport. She is getting the
1:26:27
Speaker 1: house in Hidden Hills, California. How much is she paying?
1:26:30
Speaker 1: Twenty three million dollars? Goodness gracious? Yes, twenty million is
1:26:34
Speaker 1: the agreed upon price for the property and three million
1:26:36
Speaker 1: for everything inside of it? Is that? How what is
1:26:39
Speaker 1: the house worth Is it worth twenty three Is it
1:26:41
Speaker 1: worth more than that? He's selling it today? But they
1:26:43
Speaker 1: purchased the house in twenty fourteen for twenty million, and
1:26:45
Speaker 1: then they worked with an architect to create an all
1:26:49
Speaker 1: white interior for the space. So I'm sure it's probably
1:26:53
Speaker 1: I would think worth more than that. But since that's
1:26:54
Speaker 1: what they paid for it, I wonder how that works
1:26:57
Speaker 1: because they're both billions, right, right, so it's not to
1:27:00
Speaker 1: her So why, I mean, so why even giving the
1:27:01
Speaker 1: twenty million, that's like that's where his kids and everybody stay.
1:27:04
Speaker 1: I wonder why, By the way, when we say they
1:27:06
Speaker 1: both billionaires, I mean that's their net worth. We don't
1:27:09
Speaker 1: know what they have in liquid, but just saying we
1:27:12
Speaker 1: just know that's what she's paying for it. Now, speaking
1:27:14
Speaker 1: of the Kardashi, she probably didn't pay the whole twenty
1:27:16
Speaker 1: three million too. I mean that's the other thing, right,
1:27:18
Speaker 1: What do you mean when they first bought it, you
1:27:19
Speaker 1: mean they split it. I'm just talking about even Yeah,
1:27:22
Speaker 1: I'm sure they didn't spend paid a whole twenty three million.
1:27:25
Speaker 1: You think that time she's paid. When she's saying twenty
1:27:28
Speaker 1: three million, he's paying him twenty three millions. You think
1:27:30
Speaker 1: she's paying like twenty three cash, Like, I don't know
1:27:33
Speaker 1: if it's cash, but she's buying the house from him. Okay,
1:27:38
Speaker 1: I'm just saying all right now, speaking of the Kardashians,
1:27:40
Speaker 1: according to Kardashian we announced that she is engaged to
1:27:43
Speaker 1: Travis Barker. Well, according to a store as, they told
1:27:46
Speaker 1: Paid six that Scott Disac is going crazy and losing
1:27:49
Speaker 1: his mind over these upcoming nuptials. They said, he's going
1:27:53
Speaker 1: off the deep end. It's really bad. It's about to
1:27:54
Speaker 1: get dark. And a rep for Scott Disac did not
1:27:56
Speaker 1: immediately return a request for comment. Now, Amochler, who was
1:28:00
Speaker 1: Travis Barker's ex wife, went on social media and she
1:28:03
Speaker 1: posted in his stories temporarily closed for spiritual maintenance. And
1:28:07
Speaker 1: then she said, Tupac once said, before you asked why
1:28:10
Speaker 1: someone hates you, asked by ask yourself why you give
1:28:12
Speaker 1: a f So both of the exes are going crazy.
1:28:15
Speaker 1: That was the reaction, all right. Now. Nas was talking
1:28:20
Speaker 1: on Jesus and Marrow and one thing that he talked
1:28:22
Speaker 1: about was DMX making him cry while they were filming
1:28:25
Speaker 1: Belly together. Here's what he said, even working on the
1:28:29
Speaker 1: film man we cried man like just and we was
1:28:31
Speaker 1: at the tunnel outside doing a scene and I was like,
1:28:35
Speaker 1: you feel that, bro, you know what's happening and and
1:28:38
Speaker 1: he was like yeah, and he started talking to me
1:28:40
Speaker 1: and he started crying and now I'm crying, and what
1:28:42
Speaker 1: you know, we like, you know he's talking with that
1:28:45
Speaker 1: like this, this man and his energy is something else.
1:28:48
Speaker 1: Man wow or DMX had that effect on people. And
1:28:51
Speaker 1: the brother was annoyed. Man said it when you're alive.
1:28:53
Speaker 1: I keep saying it when he's gone. All right, now,
1:28:55
Speaker 1: Judge Judy's bailiff, we discussed this. Petrie Hawkins Bird. We
1:29:00
Speaker 1: talked about how Judge Judy is doing her new show
1:29:03
Speaker 1: Judy Justice on IMDbTV that premieres are November first, but
1:29:07
Speaker 1: she has not asked the bailiff who has been with
1:29:09
Speaker 1: her since nineteen ninety six when Judge Judy premiered and
1:29:13
Speaker 1: for twenty five season. She has not asked him to
1:29:15
Speaker 1: come to her upcoming project. He felt a way about it,
1:29:18
Speaker 1: you know, he said that he was priced out as
1:29:20
Speaker 1: a new bailiff, but she wanted He wanted to know
1:29:22
Speaker 1: why she didn't even approach him or ask him and
1:29:25
Speaker 1: she didn't give him an opportunity to have accepted a
1:29:27
Speaker 1: lower salary. Well now, according to reports, being offered all
1:29:31
Speaker 1: other kinds of television opportunities. So he's not actively seeking
1:29:35
Speaker 1: a new court show, but he will be considering any
1:29:37
Speaker 1: offers to come his way. So I really hope something
1:29:40
Speaker 1: works out for him, something that he wants to do,
1:29:42
Speaker 1: all right. And Summer Walker is challenging her fans to
1:29:46
Speaker 1: get a hard drive of her new album. So what
1:29:49
Speaker 1: she did was she was in New York City and
1:29:51
Speaker 1: if you break this case that it's in, then you

Speaker 1: get to have an early listen to her album. I
1:29:57

1:30:04
Speaker 1: the hard drive, so we can see that on her
1:30:05
Speaker 1: Instagram page as well. So the album is coming out
1:30:09
Speaker 1: November fifth, and Flavor Flav has been arrested for a
1:30:12
Speaker 1: domestic battery. According to law enforcement, he was booked on
1:30:14
Speaker 1: a misdemeanor charge on October fifth. Cops responded to a
1:30:18
Speaker 1: call about a domestic disturbance. When they got their Flav
1:30:20
Speaker 1: was placed into custody and he was taken in They
1:30:23
Speaker 1: said he allegedly poked his finger on the alleged victims nose,
1:30:27
Speaker 1: grabbed her, threw her down, and grabbed a phone out
1:30:29
Speaker 1: of her hand. So he's been charged with misdemeanor battery
1:30:32
Speaker 1: constituting domestic violence and young Douglas one million dollars hard
1:30:36
Speaker 1: drive containing two hundred unreleased songs. It was an apartment
1:30:40
Speaker 1: mix up, so he's suing the owners of his luxury
1:30:42
Speaker 1: apartment building in Atlanta. The concier service lost a number
1:30:45
Speaker 1: of his valuable items. I'm sure that was the most valuable,
1:30:48
Speaker 1: A hard drive with two hundred unreleased songs. Yeah, absolutely, So.
1:30:51
Speaker 1: He accidentally left a Louis Va time bag next to

1:30:56
Speaker 1: forty thousand cash, a Watsworth fifty seven thousand, I'm in
1:31:00
Speaker 1: chamber thirty seven thousand, and that hard drive. So the
1:31:02
Speaker 1: bag was retrieved by a fellow resident. It was handed
1:31:05
Speaker 1: to members of the concierge team at his building. They
1:31:08
Speaker 1: contacted him to let him know they found his bag,
1:31:12
Speaker 1: and apparently they released the bag to an unknown person
1:31:16
Speaker 1: and didn't even contact them. So now he's suing. Oh,
1:31:18
Speaker 1: so they just gave the bag to somebody else and

Speaker 1: be here with you all. Oh, thank you so much. Well,
1:32:22
Speaker 1: how are you? First and foremost, I'm still like adrenaline
1:32:26
Speaker 1: pumping from Sunday. That was just a spectacular event, and
1:32:29
Speaker 1: last night I got to see the Tina Turners. So
1:32:32
Speaker 1: it was just a lot of exciting things that were happening,
1:32:34
Speaker 1: but especially excited about that expo and just bringing so
1:32:37
Speaker 1: many people an introduction to mental health and others elevating
1:32:42
Speaker 1: their knowledge about mental health. Thank you for being a
1:32:44
Speaker 1: part of it. I'm so happy that you could speak
1:32:46
Speaker 1: on the Black Women's Mental Health panel. Yes, it was
1:32:48
Speaker 1: an absolute pleasure to be on with such dynamic women.
1:32:51
Speaker 1: Doctor Ya Walker, doctor Alphy Noble, Tracy Jenkins was on
1:32:54
Speaker 1: that panel, right, and doctor Charmagne Jack. Yes. Yes, So
1:32:58
Speaker 1: how did you get into talking about mental health, dealing
1:33:01
Speaker 1: with mental health and trying to break down and help people? Actually,
1:33:05
Speaker 1: I was thrown into it thirteen fourteen years old, just
1:33:08
Speaker 1: trying to figure out and understand the behaviors that my
1:33:10
Speaker 1: mother was exhibiting. All I could describe it at that
1:33:13
Speaker 1: time as a thirteen year old, fourteen year old is
1:33:15
Speaker 1: that it was weird. I just could not comprehend what
1:33:18
Speaker 1: was going on. It was what was going on things
1:33:20
Speaker 1: that she would say, a lot of paranoia. You know,
1:33:22
Speaker 1: it could be a small hole in the wall from
1:33:24
Speaker 1: a nail you when you hang up pictures, and she
1:33:27
Speaker 1: thought that microphones were in there, and people from the
1:33:29
Speaker 1: church were listening to her, and the pastor talked about her.
1:33:32
Speaker 1: Just a lot of paranoia. But one day she just
1:33:35
Speaker 1: talked NonStop, and I mean literally just was talking NonStop,
1:33:40
Speaker 1: talking to people who weren't there. Then she had these
1:33:42
Speaker 1: ideas of grandiose if you will, like, thinking that she
1:33:45
Speaker 1: could heal, had miraculous powers. And I didn't know what
1:33:48
Speaker 1: to do, so I called a relative. My relative came over,
1:33:51
Speaker 1: was not able to get her to stop talking. So
1:33:54
Speaker 1: we took her to the emergency room. And I just
1:33:55
Speaker 1: want to pause there with the emergency room situation, because
1:33:58
Speaker 1: a lot of us don't have medical insurance, and so
1:34:01
Speaker 1: the emergency room is our medical treatment. And that's where
1:34:05
Speaker 1: she was first diagnosed with what she was diagnosed with,
1:34:08
Speaker 1: manic depression, paranoid schizophrenia. Where does it come from? And
1:34:12
Speaker 1: the reason I asked that is before because a lot
1:34:14
Speaker 1: of people you don't really notice it until they get
1:34:16
Speaker 1: to a certain age, you know, like you know, maybe
1:34:18
Speaker 1: you know your mom was forty years old, and from
1:34:20
Speaker 1: you know, zero to forty she was fine, and then
1:34:22
Speaker 1: all of a sudden at forty one, something triggered and
1:34:24
Speaker 1: it started. Do we know where it comes from? Right?
1:34:28
Speaker 1: And I just want to put my disclaim route. I'm
1:34:29
Speaker 1: a lawyer, not a doctor, but from my research, you know,
1:34:33
Speaker 1: between the ages of like seventeen twenty three, anyone could
1:34:37
Speaker 1: potentially start exhibiting symptoms of severe mental illness right, and
1:34:43
Speaker 1: schizophrenia specifically is described in thirds, like one third can
1:34:47
Speaker 1: have one bout of symptoms and never experience them again.
1:34:51
Speaker 1: The second third, where I believe my mother is they
1:34:53
Speaker 1: could be in and out of mental institutions, on and
1:34:56
Speaker 1: off the streets, just on and off treatment, and that
1:34:59
Speaker 1: will be the life for the rest of their lives.
1:35:01
Speaker 1: And then the third third of people are people we
1:35:04
Speaker 1: may see any day on any in any city USA,
1:35:07
Speaker 1: on the streets, living on the streets, undiagnosed, or maybe
1:35:10
Speaker 1: they're diagnosed but untreated and eventually may die by their
1:35:13
Speaker 1: own hands or the hands of others. So it's a
1:35:16
Speaker 1: very scary situation, but at the same time, any one
1:35:19
Speaker 1: of us can be impacted with mental health conditions, but
1:35:22
Speaker 1: as far as severe mental illness, it could be a
1:35:25
Speaker 1: traumatic brain injury. Tiffany had just talks about her mother
1:35:28
Speaker 1: being in a car accident and after that she started
1:35:31
Speaker 1: exhibiting symptoms of mental illness. So really, I just encourage
1:35:36
Speaker 1: people to not wait till you're in a crisis, not
1:35:39
Speaker 1: wait till you can't handle it by yourself, but to
1:35:42
Speaker 1: make it a regular part of your every day every
1:35:45
Speaker 1: year at least physical exams that you also do a
1:35:48
Speaker 1: mental health assessment. It doesn't mean that anything is wrong,
1:35:51
Speaker 1: but you don't want to wait till something is wrong
1:35:53
Speaker 1: to get help. Can we talk about, you know, the
1:35:55
Speaker 1: impact that you know, dealing with somebody that you love
1:35:58
Speaker 1: who has the fact that has on the family, because
1:36:01
Speaker 1: I've been noticing that the past year, and that's why
1:36:03
Speaker 1: we did a room, a breakout room at the mental
1:36:05
Speaker 1: effects both for you know, people who have people in
1:36:08
Speaker 1: their family who have schizophrenia, bipolar or whatever and what
1:36:12
Speaker 1: it does to their mental health. Right right, that's a
1:36:15
Speaker 1: great distinction, for example, because we can talk about self
1:36:18
Speaker 1: care all day long, but self care is not really
1:36:21
Speaker 1: addressing severe mental illness. Because those are severe mind altering behaviors,
1:36:26
Speaker 1: dealing dealing with delusions and hallucinations analog nasia. That's when
1:36:31
Speaker 1: a person doesn't even have the insight that they're sick.
1:36:34
Speaker 1: Not denial, they don't they lack insight to even know
1:36:37
Speaker 1: that they're sick. So as far as those who are
1:36:39
Speaker 1: caregivers loved ones, you really have to implement self care.
1:36:43
Speaker 1: You really have to implement boundaries. And that's something that
1:36:46
Speaker 1: I had to learn along the way and seeking help
1:36:50
Speaker 1: before we were in crisis, I spent I guess like
1:36:53
Speaker 1: thirty years. I really just instituted this as a part
1:36:56
Speaker 1: of my life in a last three to five years,
1:36:58
Speaker 1: to have regular meetings with my mother's treatment team instead
1:37:02
Speaker 1: of waiting for when she's in crisis and I'm just
1:37:05
Speaker 1: trying to call anybody who would answer the phone to
1:37:07
Speaker 1: help us, you know, when she's run off to another
1:37:10
Speaker 1: state or I've had calls where my mother was found
1:37:14
Speaker 1: in a vacant home with no utilities, and she does
1:37:17
Speaker 1: not have to live like that, right, But there are
1:37:19
Speaker 1: a lot of people who give up on their family members.
1:37:23
Speaker 1: I'm an only child, so it's just something that I
1:37:25
Speaker 1: could never do. But I had to create boundaries for
1:37:29
Speaker 1: my own well being, for my children's well being, and
1:37:32
Speaker 1: just to be able to still be here for her. Now.
1:37:34
Speaker 1: I love the work that you guys are doing, and
1:37:36
Speaker 1: I say it all the time. It's it's a matter
1:37:38
Speaker 1: of changing the narrative, right, it's you go to the
1:37:40
Speaker 1: ballbershop now, and when I go to the ballbershop, somebody
1:37:43
Speaker 1: might say, hey, Envy, you know and me and my
1:37:45
Speaker 1: wife's dealing with this. You know, how did you go
1:37:47
Speaker 1: through it? And I loved those conversations and the fact
1:37:49
Speaker 1: that Charlemagne has, you know, he's stood on his mental
1:37:52
Speaker 1: health ground where people can feel comfortable talking about it now.
1:37:55
Speaker 1: I commend what you guys are doing and even an
1:37:56
Speaker 1: expot I just thought it was great. I think it's
1:37:59
Speaker 1: awesome too. So I could mens you thank you for
1:38:00
Speaker 1: all that you're doing to help elevate this voice for
1:38:04
Speaker 1: mental health and breaking down the stigma. And there is
1:38:07
Speaker 1: a absolutely absolutely well thank you for letting him use
1:38:11
Speaker 1: you about that. Yes, And a part of this whole
1:38:14
Speaker 1: journey for me was just creating information to share with
1:38:17
Speaker 1: other people because I couldn't identify with what was going
1:38:20
Speaker 1: on with my mother and I wanted to know, how
1:38:22
Speaker 1: does the family help a person? So I started turning
1:38:25
Speaker 1: into movies and stuff that showed it, and I talked
1:38:27
Speaker 1: about it at the expo. But Out of Darkness was
1:38:29
Speaker 1: the first movie that I saw my mom and my
1:38:32
Speaker 1: life depicted on film, and I can't try to relate
1:38:35
Speaker 1: in some kind of way, and then like the solo Ess,
1:38:37
Speaker 1: and there's just various movies that have come out since then.
1:38:41
Speaker 1: But I created a my go to mental health guy,
1:38:44
Speaker 1: and I encourage people to go and get it. It's
1:38:46
Speaker 1: a Corey empowers dot com. It's for free, you just
1:38:49
Speaker 1: you know, request it and it has movies, apps, blogs, articles,
1:38:54
Speaker 1: all kinds of organizations, your organizational Mental Wealth Alliance and others.
1:39:00
Speaker 1: Some of I was able to meet the executive directors
1:39:02
Speaker 1: at the expo, but they're in my Mental Health Guide
1:39:04
Speaker 1: as well. And to help people to just know that
1:39:06
Speaker 1: there are resources that are available, and to know that
1:39:09
Speaker 1: you don't have to call nine one one anymore. You
1:39:11
Speaker 1: could call nine eight eight, and so for individuals who
1:39:13
Speaker 1: have individuals who have T Mobile, T Mobile has already
1:39:18
Speaker 1: implemented the use of nine to eight eight and transferring
1:39:21
Speaker 1: those calls for those who are in crisis. But all
1:39:24
Speaker 1: cell phone providers are supposed to do it by twenty
1:39:26
Speaker 1: twenty two, and that's in my Mental Health Guide as well,
1:39:29
Speaker 1: so that you can know about that information. Aund Well,
1:39:34
Speaker 1: they just passed it. I think it was a last
1:39:36
Speaker 1: year or so. Yes, absolutely information. That's right. Well, my
