- 3:11Speaker 2: Our first F.U.D.
- 3:12Speaker 5: Hughley comment is from Instagram. Daddy Dearest says, D.L., I
- 3:16Speaker 5: heard your son say there was a time in his life.
- 3:18Speaker 2: When he believed you didn't love him. How could you
- 3:21Speaker 2: let that happen? While you were attacking.
- 3:23Speaker 5: The president, teasing Terry Crews, and making fun of the
- 3:27Speaker 5: problems within the Catholic Church, you think you had to
- 3:29Speaker 5: take your time out to give your son a hug
- 3:31Speaker 5: and a kiss and tell him you love him. You
- 3:33Speaker 5: definitely take care of your family financially, but emotionally, you're
- 3:37Speaker 5: a deadbeat dad.
- 3:38Speaker 2: F * * * you, D.
- 3:39Speaker 4: Hughley.
- 3:41Speaker 5: Our next FBDHoodley comment comes from the DLHoodley show website.

- 4:01Speaker 5: us people who listen to your show while driving our
- 4:03Speaker 5: nine-year-old used cars to our second minimum wage jobs in
- 4:06Speaker 5: order to struggle keeping the lights on at our three-bedroom
- 4:09Speaker 5: rental house in the hood that has six people living
- 4:12Speaker 5: in it?
- 4:12Speaker 2: I don't think so.
- 4:14Speaker 5: You disconnected bougie negro.
- 4:15Speaker 3: F * * *!
- 4:16Speaker 2: F * * * you, G.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Hughley.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Today's last F.U.G.
- 4:19Speaker 5: Hughley comment is from Facebook. Hughleyfan64 says, D.L., I was
- 4:23Speaker 5: your biggest fan. I've seen every one of your Comic
- 4:26Speaker 5: View episodes, all your comedy specials, TV.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Shows, movies, and even your podcasts.
- 4:31Speaker 5: I listen to your radio show every day.
- 4:34Speaker 2: But that's where the problem lies.
- 4:36Speaker 5: When I listen to you on the radio, then watch
- 4:37Speaker 5: you on TV, I hear you tell the same joke.
- 4:40Speaker 2: Come on, D.L., you mean you can't find different.
- 4:43Speaker 3: Jokes for the radio and TV?
- 4:45Speaker 5: You have to cheat us fans by recycling jokes? I
- 4:47Speaker 5: thought you were a king of comedy. I bet Steven Cedric,
- 4:51Speaker 5: the other kings, will give us original jokes.
- 4:53Speaker 4: No wonder you.
- 4:54Speaker 5: Didn't get the Family Feud job.
- 4:55Speaker 2: F * * * you, D. Hughley. Well, that's it
- 4:58Speaker 2: for this week. This has been Niecy James, your F.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Hugh D.
- 5:01Speaker 5: Hughley correspondent.
- 5:02Speaker 2: And until next week, bye!
- 5:04Speaker 1: It's now time for the human being of the week, Jasmine.
- 5:06Speaker 1: Somebody is human as opposed to these people on this show.
- 5:09Speaker 1: But who's out there human?
- 5:10Speaker 2: Well, I don't know yet. Hold on.
- 5:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:16Speaker 2: It's shocking that we would have the same segment.
- 5:19Speaker 3: I was trying to figure out who else is going
- 5:20Speaker 3: to be on the boat. Sorry. That's all I was
- 5:23Speaker 3: doing was trying to figure out who else was going
- 5:25Speaker 3: to be on the boat.
- 5:25Speaker 2: Sorry about that. It's actually Steve Madden. Shout out to
- 5:28Speaker 2: Steve Madden.
- 5:29Speaker 3: A lot of people don't know, but he has always
- 5:31Speaker 3: given a lot of money to the black community, more.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Specifically to HBCUs.
- 5:36Speaker 3: And a lot of people don't know that because, you know,
- 5:38Speaker 3: a lot of these big time fashion houses and designers
- 5:41Speaker 3: have a thing against blackness. They like to appropriate it,
- 5:44Speaker 3: but they don't want us wearing their fashion. Steve Madden
- 5:46Speaker 3: is the exception. He's actually given a lot of money
- 5:49Speaker 3: to Howard University, to Clark Atlanta University and a lot
- 5:53Speaker 3: of other HBCU students. And he actually works with them
- 5:56Speaker 3: directly through programs, you know, to kind of connect with
- 5:59Speaker 3: this company and give them opportunities to learn more about
- 6:01Speaker 3: fashion and retail and all of those things. So shout
- 6:04Speaker 3: out to Steve Madden for doing what a lot of
- 6:05Speaker 3: other fashion companies are not.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Didn't he go to jail? Steve Madden? Didn't he? I
- 6:12Speaker 2: don't think so. I don't know.
- 6:13Speaker 3: Google it.
- 6:13Speaker 2: I didn't think that. Yeah, I don't think Steve Madden
- 6:15Speaker 2: went to jail. Ah, okay. Yeah, you Google that real quick.
- 6:19Speaker 3: Somebody.
- 6:19Speaker 2: What are those faces? I don't know if it was
- 6:21Speaker 2: Steve Madden.
- 6:22Speaker 4: No, that was with the University of Southern California, Massimo Moschino.
- 6:31Speaker 2: Oh, no, no, no, no, no. He's right. 31 months
- 6:34Speaker 2: in federal prison. Yeah.
- 6:36Speaker 3: Fraud and money laundering back in 2002. But we ain't
- 6:39Speaker 3: talking about what he did. We talking about what he
- 6:40Speaker 3: did now.
- 6:41Speaker 2: And he kept all that money. So some of that
- 6:43Speaker 2: money he donated was on people's books.
- 6:45Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 6:48Speaker 2: So what he did is got the beat but kept
- 6:49Speaker 2: the brand. He kept the brand, I'm telling you.
- 6:51Speaker 3: I know, but what I'm saying, what he's doing now
- 6:53Speaker 3: is he's giving money and opportunities and scholarships to HBCU students.
- 6:57Speaker 1: He's helping to sell you out. He's helping to sell
- 6:59Speaker 1: you out. I'm just telling you. When I tried to
- 7:03Speaker 1: tell you he got a bid, you were just telling me.
- 7:05Speaker 2: Yeah, but that was back in 2020.
- 7:06Speaker 1: Okay, you're right.
- 7:08Speaker 2: Steve Madden. You're a human being of the week. No,
- 7:14Speaker 2: I'm sorry. It was 2002.
- 7:16Speaker 1: 2002.
- 7:16Speaker 3: 2020.
- 7:17Speaker 2: It was 20 years ago. You're a human being of
- 7:21Speaker 2: the week. And, you know, he took the bid and
- 7:23Speaker 2: kept the $ 30 million. Didn't give it back. Well, he's
- 7:26Speaker 2: sharing it now. He is now. He is now.
- 7:30Speaker 1: So, Steve, man, you're a human being of the week. And, boy, man,
- 7:32Speaker 1: you are inspiration for the people in the feds. I'm
- 7:34Speaker 1: telling you, man.

- 7:57Speaker 4: new voting rules before the midterm elections. California Governor Gavin
- 8:01Speaker 4: Newsom announced he will not run for president in 2028

- 8:12Speaker 4: early advantage in a potential Democratic primary. Grammy-winning rapper Macklemore
- 8:18Speaker 4: was dropped from Ed Sheeran's national concert tour following political
- 8:22Speaker 4: statements made on stage. During a recent performance at MetLife
- 8:26Speaker 4: Stadium in New Jersey, Macklemore shouted, Free Palestine, prompting the
- 8:30Speaker 4: Israeli-American Council and several venue operators to demand his removal.
- 8:35Speaker 4: Concert promoters confirmed upcoming U.S. venues refused to host shows
- 8:39Speaker 4: if the rapper remained on the tour lineup.
