- 1:04Speaker 1: I was away for a week and a half doing
- 1:07Speaker 1: all kinds of things, and when you come back, you're
- 1:08Speaker 1: trying to catch up on everything, have every meeting you
- 1:10Speaker 1: need to have. So that's basically what I've been trying
- 1:14Speaker 1: to catch up on so every day it's been like
- 1:16Speaker 1: back to back to back to back to back work.
- 1:18Speaker 1: But I enjoy it. And you know, I was at
- 1:20Speaker 1: my coffee shop. I had a meeting there and then
- 1:22Speaker 1: I had to do something else on Zoom. Then I
- 1:25Speaker 1: came back to have a whole nother situation. I'm very
- 1:29Speaker 1: into theater. So I was interviewing this woman who's going
- 1:33Speaker 1: to be directing a play that will be in Brooklyn,
- 1:36Speaker 1: and one of the lead actors from the play. It's
- 1:39Speaker 1: called Wedding Band by Alice Childress, and it's about an
- 1:42Speaker 1: interracial relationship, is set in South Carolina. So we were
- 1:47Speaker 1: having a little sit down. But the good thing about
- 1:49Speaker 1: having a coffee shop is anytime you get tired, you
- 1:51Speaker 1: know what you do, go get some coffee. Exactly, I
- 1:55Speaker 1: have to get into coffee. I just in pause, pause, pause.
- 1:58Speaker 1: I don't like hot things in my mouth, Like I can't.
- 2:00Speaker 1: You can get iced coffee, yeah, it don't taste to say,
- 2:03Speaker 1: I actually love. I had an iced mocha yesterday for people,
- 2:08Speaker 1: and a lot of people ask me who don't drink coffee,
- 2:11Speaker 1: like if I want to try it, what's something good
- 2:12Speaker 1: to try? And I like amocha because it has chocolate
- 2:15Speaker 1: in it, so that's always good, or a latte, and
- 2:18Speaker 1: I always use oat milk or almond milk instead of
- 2:20Speaker 1: regular milk. And I don't add like a lot of
- 2:22Speaker 1: extra things in it because coffee has a lot of help.
- 2:24Speaker 1: And if it's like I always tell people that you
- 2:26Speaker 1: may not know, but it definitely keeps you up. And
- 2:29Speaker 1: I feel like I'm still up from yesterday. I'm gonna
- 2:31Speaker 1: get gonna get my I'm gonna trying some coffee. Like yesterday,
- 2:33Speaker 1: I took my dad to the game, to Knicks game.
- 2:35Speaker 1: The next played the Nets last night. I bet the

- 2:45Speaker 1: The next was just like, let's put on a show,
- 2:47Speaker 1: you know, and they did. And I thought about it.
- 2:49Speaker 1: You know, me and my dad go to a bunch
- 2:50Speaker 1: of football games. We haven't gone to a basketball game.
- 2:54Speaker 1: And when we were there yesterday, my dad was like, yeah,
- 2:56Speaker 1: you remember when I used to take to these games
- 2:57Speaker 1: as a kid. We used to sit in Section three
- 2:59Speaker 1: hundred all the way up there, so it was pretty
- 3:01Speaker 1: cool to sit on the court side where he could
- 3:03Speaker 1: watch the game and really enjoy himself. So he had
- 3:06Speaker 1: a great time last night. So shout the pop Dukes.
- 3:07Speaker 1: I know he's probably tied because we didn't get back
- 3:09Speaker 1: too late, but shout the pop Dukes. That's great because
- 3:12Speaker 1: y'all are both Nuts fans, So that's dope that y'all
- 3:14Speaker 1: went to the game together Knicks fans. But you said fan, Now, No,
- 3:19Speaker 1: I'm a Knicks fan, always been a Knicks fan, but
- 3:20Speaker 1: I want the Nets team. I mean, I'm a New Yorker,
- 3:22Speaker 1: so I always want New York to win, regardless of
- 3:24Speaker 1: what it is. So all right, now today we have

- 4:41Speaker 1: on a helicopter landing pad in Dubai. According to TMZ Sports,
- 4:47Speaker 1: he'll take on dangerous Don Moore. It's an eight round
- 4:51Speaker 1: exhibition fight happening on May fourteenth. That's being called the
- 4:54Speaker 1: Global Titan Fight Series. Yes, it's the same thing. That's
- 5:00Speaker 1: the first question people have. That's the only reason he's
- 5:02Speaker 1: doing it. He's only doing it for the money, which
- 5:05Speaker 1: I mean, which is fine. You know, forty some years old,
- 5:07Speaker 1: you're probably still in the ring spar and anyway, just
- 5:09Speaker 1: for you know, exercise, So why not. I see him
- 5:12Speaker 1: chaining with a b I see him running and working
- 5:14Speaker 1: out with each other. But I wonder how much you
- 5:16Speaker 1: getting paid. It's a lot. I'm sure it's a double
- 5:19Speaker 1: digit million dollar payd Yeah, we're gonna see soon, all
- 5:22Speaker 1: right now. A woman in Oklahoma has pleaded guilty and
- 5:25Speaker 1: a thirty two million dollars COVID relief fraud scam. It
- 5:30Speaker 1: involved more than one hundred and fifty fraudulent applications for
- 5:33Speaker 1: loans from the PPP Paycheck Protection Program, which Congress paths
- 5:37Speaker 1: to help businesses survive the pandemic. She was part of
- 5:40Speaker 1: that scheme, and her name is Amanda Jay Glorious. She's
- 5:43Speaker 1: forty five years old. She pleaded guilty to conspiracy to
- 5:46Speaker 1: commit bank fraud and money laundering. She was charged in
- 5:49Speaker 1: June with helping a New York man get a loan
- 5:51Speaker 1: for close to one million dollars, and she also submitted
- 5:54Speaker 1: and got around four hundred and twenty one thousand dollars
- 5:56Speaker 1: from the pandemic Relief program using a trucking business that
- 5:59Speaker 1: she owned, but that business hasn't been active since twenty seventeen.
- 6:03Speaker 1: And then she conspired to submitt at least one hundred
- 6:06Speaker 1: and fifty three fraudulent PPP applications on behalf of one
- 6:09Speaker 1: hundred and eleven entities. Well, all you people that got
- 6:12Speaker 1: defraudulent PPP loans, just know the coast is not clear. Okay,
- 6:16Speaker 1: the heat is still on. You could be imprisoned by Christmas.
- 6:20Speaker 1: All right, And six state attorneys generals threatened the NFL
- 6:24Speaker 1: with the probe over treatment of how they've treated female employees.
- 6:28Speaker 1: So they said, our offices will use the full weight
- 6:30Speaker 1: of our authority to investigate and prosecute allegations of harassment, discrimination,
- 6:35Speaker 1: or retaliation by employers throughout our states, including at the NFL.
- 6:39Speaker 1: And the attorneys general from New York, Illinois, Minnesota, Massachusetts, Oregon,
- 6:43Speaker 1: and Washington wrote a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
- 6:46Speaker 1: They said all of this is entirely unacceptable and potentially unlawful.
- 6:52Speaker 1: All but one of the states have an NFL franchise
- 6:54Speaker 1: in the state of New York is home to NFL headquarters.
- 6:57Speaker 1: They said. In New York, where the NFL is headquartered,
- 6:59Speaker 1: the offense of the Attorney General has never hesitated to
- 7:02Speaker 1: take action to protect employers from sexual harassment and abuse,
- 7:06Speaker 1: whether they are entry level employees of the Weinstein Company
- 7:08Speaker 1: or service and bartenders at batally owned restaurants. So there's
- 7:13Speaker 1: some potential sexual harassment allegations that have happened former employees.
- 7:18Speaker 1: So the New York Times that they were held back
- 7:20Speaker 1: and criticized for having an aggressive tone and often unfair
- 7:23Speaker 1: stereotype of women, especially women of color, who try to
- 7:27Speaker 1: advance in a male dominated workplace. Other women reported that
- 7:29Speaker 1: in a training intended to improve sensitivity on the issue,
- 7:33Speaker 1: you won't believe this, they were asked to raise their
- 7:36Speaker 1: hand to self identify if they had been victims of
- 7:39Speaker 1: domestic violence or knew someone who had. They said, this
- 7:42Speaker 1: is not doing better. Anti discrimination laws in many states,
- 7:45Speaker 1: including New York, prohibit employers from subjecting domestic violence victims,
- 7:49Speaker 1: as well as women and people of color to a
- 7:51Speaker 1: hostile work environment. The NFL is an old school boys
- 7:54Speaker 1: clubs never had a reckoning like mean women probably have
- 7:58Speaker 1: never even been considered in the NFL. Imagine you're being
- 8:02Speaker 1: abused and they asked you in a meeting, where's your hand?
- 8:04Speaker 1: Have you been at? I mean, come on, it sounds
- 8:07Speaker 1: about right for the NFL to mean that. The other fella,
- 8:09Speaker 1: the old school Boys Club, old school, old school. That's
- 8:11Speaker 1: old old old old old, old school white man exactly.
- 8:15Speaker 1: It's old school white Man Boys Club exactly, old school

- 17:00Speaker 1: for other people who have the scriptancy period. I respected,
- 17:03Speaker 1: I respected, But who won a million dollars bet? Though?
- 17:05Speaker 1: Didn't he better a million dollars that he didn't call
- 17:07Speaker 1: it a be word? I don't need to know who
- 17:08Speaker 1: won the bet. Well, it's over down. He was joking
- 17:11Speaker 1: to be comedy. Okay, I'm glad that comedians could get along.
- 17:15Speaker 1: I don't want to see no beef in the comic
- 17:17Speaker 1: the comic community. TI is a comedian now, okay, yes,
- 17:21Speaker 1: and the weekend we'll be joining Swedish House Mafia as
- 17:24Speaker 1: Coachella co headliners. They are replacing Kanye. You know, Kanye
- 17:28Speaker 1: did drop out of it, and it's less than two
- 17:31Speaker 1: weeks away, and so that's what it is now. He
- 17:35Speaker 1: was supposed to get eight point five million dollars to perform,
- 17:39Speaker 1: and according to reports, Coachella tried to not pay the
- 17:43Speaker 1: Weekend as much as they were gonna pay Kanye. It
- 17:46Speaker 1: was eight million dollars plus a five hundred thousand dollars
- 17:48Speaker 1: production fee. So the Weekend has demanded that he get
- 17:52Speaker 1: that same amount of money and that they don't just
- 17:54Speaker 1: put that money back in their pockets. Oh yeah, I
- 17:56Speaker 1: would too. Well, the weekend is the Weekend, but it's
- 17:59Speaker 1: still Kanye West. Right, Like, it comes down to who
- 18:01Speaker 1: would do a bigger draw. Don't you think bottom of
- 18:03Speaker 1: the knife? It's bottom of the knife. You need a performer,
- 18:05Speaker 1: you need an artist. Kanye dropped out, You need somebody,
- 18:08Speaker 1: you need me. I don't think nobody think that's I
- 18:10Speaker 1: don't think that's not gonna stop nobody from going to Coachella.
- 18:12Speaker 1: In people are gonna be upset this Sunday headliner because
- 18:15Speaker 1: you know they have three different days. Yeah, so parents.
- 18:19Speaker 1: I'm sure Coachella already was sold out before they announced Kanye,
- 18:22Speaker 1: but I heard people saying that they were upset because
- 18:24Speaker 1: they wanted to see Kanye. I'm sure. And if the
- 18:26Speaker 1: Weekend can get the eight million, get the eight million.
- 18:28Speaker 1: I'm just staying from a business perspective, I would be like, well,
- 18:30Speaker 1: you're not necessarily Kanye, you are the Weekend. But Coachella
- 18:34Speaker 1: got it. Of course they got They have the money
- 18:36Speaker 1: and the other things. And the other thing is I'm
- 18:38Speaker 1: filling in at the last minute. Yeah, a middle vacation.
- 18:43Speaker 1: You gotta pay me for my You're a little desperate
- 18:45Speaker 1: to find somebody of a huge status to fill in,
- 18:49Speaker 1: So I'll take I'll take eas advice on this I'm
- 18:52Speaker 1: not listening to the v what gonna say nothing about Okay,
- 18:56Speaker 1: what I'm just saying. It's a little personal Brot me
- 19:03Speaker 1: my money, bottom of the life, Rub me my money.

- 19:10Speaker 1: go get your weekend money. Go get your money. You're saying,
- 19:14Speaker 1: all right, so, but am he's still wearing that chain um.
- 19:19Speaker 1: Jesse Williams is terrified of being nude on stage and
- 19:23Speaker 1: Take me Out. He told Paid six exclusively for his
- 19:26Speaker 1: Broadway debut that he was terrified to strip down. He said,
- 19:30Speaker 1: but then I noted that that was what I asked
- 19:33Speaker 1: God for. I asked to be terrified. I asked to
- 19:35Speaker 1: do something that was scary and challenging and made me
- 19:38Speaker 1: earn it and made me feel alive and not comfortable.
- 19:41Speaker 1: He announced back in May twenty twenty one that he
- 19:43Speaker 1: was exiting Gray's Anatomy after twelve seasons, and he is

- 20:10Speaker 1: as gay. It's called Take Me Out. Yeah, and that's
- 20:12Speaker 1: the name of the player. I've been to a lot

- 20:24Speaker 1: I know that's a fair that people have. I don't
- 20:26Speaker 1: want to be naked and vulnerable and then someone takes
- 20:29Speaker 1: a picture and post it. Yeah, especially if you ain't
- 20:31Speaker 1: got that hang time, if you are growing not a show.

- 20:48Speaker 1: is your room of report. All right, Now, we got
- 20:50Speaker 1: front page news next. What we're talking about, Yes, and
- 20:53Speaker 1: let's talk about these major war crimes being discovered in
- 20:56Speaker 1: Ukraine after Joe Biden has announced new sanctions on a Russia.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Will tell you some of what's being said is happening.
- 21:04Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast
- 21:06Speaker 1: Clocal morning, So Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be
- 21:10Speaker 1: the same. Hey, it's Angela. Ye. Have you taken a

- 21:18Speaker 1: your current insurance? Call eight hundred General or visit the
- 21:20Speaker 1: General dot com the General Auto Insurance Services, Inc. An
- 21:23Speaker 1: insurance agency Nashville, Tennessee. Some restrictions apply. Wanting everybody is
- 21:28Speaker 1: dj Envy Angela yee, Charlomagne the guy we are to
- 21:31Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news. We were
- 21:36Speaker 1: starting you all right, Well, let's start with Joe Biden.
- 21:39Speaker 1: He has declared major war crimes have been discovered in
- 21:42Speaker 1: Ukraine as Russian forces retreat from areas around Kiev. And
- 21:47Speaker 1: here is what Joe Biden had to say. These all arks,
- 21:51Speaker 1: their family members are not allowed to hold on to
- 21:53Speaker 1: their wealth in Europe and the United States, and keep
- 21:55Speaker 1: these yachts while chilling your crane are being killed displaced
- 21:59Speaker 1: from their homes, civilians executed, cold blood bodies jumped into
- 22:04Speaker 1: mass graves, a sense of brutality and humanity. So what
- 22:09Speaker 1: are you doing somebody at the war criminal? Do you
- 22:10Speaker 1: go get them? Well, what they're doing now is they're saying,
- 22:13Speaker 1: similar to the January six attacks on the capitol, they
- 22:16Speaker 1: are actually looking at a video and they're documenting. They said,
- 22:21Speaker 1: millions of Ukrainians with cell phones are recording incidents and
- 22:24Speaker 1: interactions large and small, and they're going to be able
- 22:27Speaker 1: to use that to prosecute people have to identify, to
- 22:30Speaker 1: identify them and prosecute real people. You haven't even really
- 22:34Speaker 1: taken real action to anybody that they invade the capital
- 22:38Speaker 1: on the sixth. Oh you know what I'm saying. So
- 22:40Speaker 1: why would that be a good comparison. Well, they have
- 22:44Speaker 1: identified people off of videos and off of pictures, and
- 22:48Speaker 1: so that's what they're doing now. They have, like I said,
- 22:50Speaker 1: millions of recordings of interaction. So in criminal court you
- 22:54Speaker 1: can be prosecuted for those things. And what are you
- 22:58Speaker 1: watching the water? Am I tripping? Aren't we watching the war? Yes?
- 23:01Speaker 1: We are? We seeing the bodies on television. Absolutely, the bombs,
- 23:05Speaker 1: the missile what's the investigation. It's an individuals. So if
- 23:09Speaker 1: you see if you have a video of a person
- 23:11Speaker 1: doing something, and um, that's what they're making sure that
- 23:14Speaker 1: they're creating a database. And they said it's geolocated photographs
- 23:18Speaker 1: and videos showing incidents of civilian harm that include hundreds
- 23:21Speaker 1: of incidents. You can view it by simply clicking on
- 23:23Speaker 1: a map, and then you use that information to identify
- 23:27Speaker 1: these real people. Oh. I thought he even talking about
- 23:29Speaker 1: Putin the whole time. Now he's talking about like soldiers everything,
- 23:32Speaker 1: because what they're doing is uh, even with buildings that
- 23:36Speaker 1: clearly said in Russian children, they're bombing those buildings. They're
- 23:40Speaker 1: killing people on the streets, civilians, and those are war crimes,
- 23:45Speaker 1: you're not you know. So they're working to bring war
- 23:47Speaker 1: criminals to trial. But I feel like the biggest head
- 23:50Speaker 1: haunch on all of this would be Putin, right, absolutely, Yeah,
- 23:53Speaker 1: so we get to go get to head. But the
- 23:55Speaker 1: soldiers can't just be out here doing things like uh,
- 23:59Speaker 1: like I said, bombing children's hospitals and all of that.
- 24:03Speaker 1: They're accountable too. They're taking orders thought the king is Putin,
- 24:09Speaker 1: but that's still criminal activity because you know, that's what
- 24:12Speaker 1: is considered a war crime. But if you're a troop
- 24:15Speaker 1: and you're a soldier, you're fighting for your country. And
- 24:17Speaker 1: then when you're when your leader told you to do something,
- 24:19Speaker 1: you're supposed to do it. If you don't, you get
- 24:21Speaker 1: in trouble. You can get arrested for treat I've seen
- 24:24Speaker 1: people talking about accounts of you know, them separating them
- 24:28Speaker 1: from their husband, their families, and then then they're finding
- 24:30Speaker 1: their husband outside shot killed in this three hours later. Well,
- 24:35Speaker 1: I've seen I've seen situations of women being raped and
- 24:39Speaker 1: things like that. You know, one woman talking about how
- 24:41Speaker 1: she was raped repeatedly and then the soldiers came back.
- 24:44Speaker 1: I don't know that Putin is saying do that, yeah,
- 24:46Speaker 1: but it still sounds like, you know, they are trying
- 24:48Speaker 1: to avoid the biggest issue, which is going to get
- 24:50Speaker 1: Putin because if they go after Putin and it's well,
- 24:52Speaker 1: I think you can do both too. I saw them
- 24:54Speaker 1: asking the press secretary, you know, why don't they just
- 24:57Speaker 1: engage in war, and she was like a World War
- 25:00Speaker 1: awards and something that we want right now. But if
- 25:02Speaker 1: you know that this guy is the head of Ancho,
- 25:04Speaker 1: the kingpins calling all of these shots why wouldn't you
- 25:06Speaker 1: just go get them. I don't know if it's that easy,
- 25:09Speaker 1: but all right. And women in Russia are also videoing
- 25:13Speaker 1: themselves scissoring up their expensive Channel bags. They're protesting being
- 25:17Speaker 1: barred from new purchases by their favorite brand. Channel. Chanelle
- 25:22Speaker 1: has pulled out of Russia. They stopped selling to wealthy Russians.
- 25:25Speaker 1: Buyers have to sign a pledge that they will not
- 25:27Speaker 1: wear or display that brand in Russia. So now a
- 25:30Speaker 1: lot of the you know, influencers are saying that they
- 25:33Speaker 1: are against Russia phobia and if owning Channel means selling
- 25:37Speaker 1: my motherland and I don't need Channel, and so now
- 25:40Speaker 1: they're trying to cut up there. They are cutting up
- 25:42Speaker 1: their Channel bags and posting videos of that. But if
- 25:44Speaker 1: you go to Channel and you're from Russia and you
- 25:46Speaker 1: try to buy something, they will ban you from being
- 25:48Speaker 1: able to do that. That statement sounded a wow. When
- 25:50Speaker 1: you first said you're like, women in Russia are scissoring up,
- 25:52Speaker 1: I was like, what pause, that's what we're thinking about
- 25:54Speaker 1: it at a time like this, cutting their backs started it.
- 25:57Speaker 1: I've never heard of sis the naked up referred to
- 26:03Speaker 1: as one way sir. Okay, all right, there's more definitions.
- 26:09Speaker 1: All right, Well that is your front page news. All right,
- 26:12Speaker 1: thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back, we
- 26:14Speaker 1: got a special guest joining us. Charlomagne sat down, lady,
- 26:18Speaker 1: yes man. You know, I do a series with the
- 26:19Speaker 1: Hollywood Reporter called Emerging Hollywood, where I sit down with
- 26:22Speaker 1: people who are doing their thing Intencil Town, and Quinta
- 26:25Speaker 1: Brunson is absolutely a human that's doing her things. She's
- 26:28Speaker 1: the creator and start of Abbott Elementary on ABC, a
- 26:30Speaker 1: show that is setting records on ABC, highest rated comedy
- 26:33Speaker 1: since Modern Family, most tweeted show, all that good stuff,
- 26:36Speaker 1: and one of my personal favorite shows right now to watch.
- 26:38Speaker 1: So yes, I'll be talking to her. Next, all right,
- 26:41Speaker 1: we'll get to that. Next is to Breakfast Club. Good Morning,
- 26:43Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
- 26:51Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. We got
- 26:54Speaker 1: a special guest in the building, Quinta Brunson, you know,
- 26:57Speaker 1: the creator of Abbott Elementary. Good morning. How are you feeling.
- 27:01Speaker 1: I'm feeling good. I am really happy to have this
- 27:03Speaker 1: conversation because I am a real big fan. What was
- 27:06Speaker 1: life like growing up, you know in West Philadelphia, you
- 27:10Speaker 1: had too. I know it's okay. I let people get
- 27:12Speaker 1: it out of their system. You know, it was great.
- 27:16Speaker 1: I love growing up in Philly. It's a beautiful city
- 27:18Speaker 1: with a ton of culture. It was a nice environment
- 27:21Speaker 1: to grow up in. And being the youngest of five,
- 27:22Speaker 1: I just kind of took so much from my siblings.
- 27:26Speaker 1: They were older. They were experiencing comedy in their own ways.
- 27:30Speaker 1: Like their favorite things range from Kings of Comedy to
- 27:34Speaker 1: I don't know, like Conan to my mom and dad
- 27:37Speaker 1: like really old shows like the Bob Newhart Show and
- 27:41Speaker 1: The Jeffersons and stuff. So I feel like all that
- 27:43Speaker 1: funneled into me and my brother, who's closest to me,
- 27:46Speaker 1: like that he's been tour so I got the stupid
- 27:47Speaker 1: stuff too. It all just funneled down. So it's name.
- 27:50Speaker 1: Being the youngest of five did you get away with
- 27:52Speaker 1: a lot. I have more eyes on me, for sure.
- 27:54Speaker 1: My parents were very overprotective. Really by the time they
- 27:57Speaker 1: get to the youngest ones, they kind of like, they
- 27:59Speaker 1: don't read the youngest to do the oldest. In my case,
- 28:02Speaker 1: they were very overprotective. If it made me more adventurous
- 28:06Speaker 1: to go out and do my own stuff. So I
- 28:08Speaker 1: found new ways to defy them. And you said that
- 28:11Speaker 1: when you can make your siblings laugh, you knew you
- 28:12Speaker 1: were doing something right. So how would you make them laugh?
- 28:15Speaker 1: One of the big things was them putting me in
- 28:17Speaker 1: a car seat and making me do impressions of Wanda
- 28:20Speaker 1: from and Living Color. They made me redo Martin episodes,
- 28:24Speaker 1: like from beginning to end. You can remember whole episodes
- 28:27Speaker 1: of Martin, but I was younger. Yeah, still can. There's
- 28:31Speaker 1: a lot of Fresh Prince episodes I can't remember from
- 28:33Speaker 1: beginning and like can almost quote so stuff like that.
- 28:35Speaker 1: It was kind of knowing these shows like the back
- 28:38Speaker 1: of my hand to be able to say the lines
- 28:40Speaker 1: to them later. That was the way to connect to them.
- 28:42Speaker 1: I was also so far away from them. My closest
- 28:45Speaker 1: sibling is eight years older than me and my other siblings.
- 28:49Speaker 1: It's you know, ten years, fifteen years, and then twenty years.
- 28:52Speaker 1: As a kid, I couldn't really relate to them. But
- 28:54Speaker 1: making them laugh was how I got to, you know,
- 28:57Speaker 1: hang out with them. In our whole family, like my
- 29:00Speaker 1: mom and dad too, we all really came together over comedies.
- 29:04Speaker 1: It was like the one thing that we could all
- 29:05Speaker 1: agree on was a good a good sitcom. At the
- 29:09Speaker 1: end of the day, you were raised, jehover Witness, So
- 29:14Speaker 1: was I You were. Absolutely my mom still my mom
- 29:17Speaker 1: still go to the kingdom all to this way what
- 29:21Speaker 1: I did, not ya, so is mine. So how strict
- 29:24Speaker 1: was your upbringing? Very Ye I'm saying over protective. I
- 29:28Speaker 1: can just use now you know what I'm talking about, Like,
- 29:30Speaker 1: they were very strict. Also, I was the only kid
- 29:32Speaker 1: that was born and raised in it, you know what
- 29:34Speaker 1: I mean. Wait, that's not true. Me and my young
- 29:36Speaker 1: my brother closest to me. The rest of them weren't
- 29:39Speaker 1: like raised jose Witness. Oh, I was a whole family.
- 29:41Speaker 1: What Oh yeah, I had the whole righteous, ratcheous mom
- 29:43Speaker 1: and dads. My dad ended up getting this fellowship because
- 29:46Speaker 1: he got baptized on the end business getting back. I
- 29:47Speaker 1: believe this conversation right, Absolutely, I should beat this fellowship.
- 29:52Speaker 1: I'm on the run. You'll never get me. You never
- 29:54Speaker 1: got baptized, that's why. Yeah, because I knew that was
- 29:57Speaker 1: too much fresh I did because I was so ambitious,
- 30:00Speaker 1: such an ambitious thirteen year old. Oh my god. Yeah,
- 30:04Speaker 1: because I was like, oh love God, I didn't do
- 30:06Speaker 1: but that's too much pressure. I know, well, you had
- 30:08Speaker 1: enough foresight. Have you held on to any of those
- 30:10Speaker 1: traditions I have you go to memorial service? Still, memorial
- 30:14Speaker 1: is the one thing I'll try really hard to go to,
- 30:16Speaker 1: and it gets harder for me every single year. There's
- 30:18Speaker 1: always a new obstacle. Last year I tried to go.
- 30:21Speaker 1: I show up. It's a Korean hall. I was like,
- 30:23Speaker 1: what the hell, Like, why can't I couldnot win? So
- 30:27Speaker 1: I'm just sitting there dressed like a slut in comparison,
- 30:31Speaker 1: never was like because I was also trying to go
- 30:34Speaker 1: to this party after so I was like, I'm just
- 30:36Speaker 1: wearing this dress. It was a little short, but I
- 30:38Speaker 1: was like, it's cool. I'm sitting the back. They're just
- 30:39Speaker 1: like appalled at what I'm wearing, and I'm like, calm down.
- 30:41Speaker 1: I was gonna sit in the back if I could
- 30:42Speaker 1: get in anyway. The brothers are just like looking at me.
- 30:47Speaker 1: All you want to do with pass some bready wine.
- 30:50Speaker 1: I'm like, it gets hurt or hurt every single year,
- 30:52Speaker 1: but I keep trying to show up. Yeah, there was
- 30:54Speaker 1: a lot of reasons why it wasn't for me, But
- 30:56Speaker 1: I don't think it's bad, and I think it weren't
- 30:59Speaker 1: for that, I'm not sure that me and my siblings
- 31:01Speaker 1: would have like survived Philadelphia at the time. Yeah, because
- 31:05Speaker 1: that kind of structure, I guess in faith, it kind
- 31:09Speaker 1: of keeps you out of trouble, which is why people
- 31:12Speaker 1: hold on dear to religion period. You know, it keeps
- 31:15Speaker 1: you on a good path. So I'm grateful about holidays.
- 31:18Speaker 1: How do you feel about those now? You know we
- 31:20Speaker 1: didn't get those kids. We didn't There was one year
- 31:23Speaker 1: I just wanted to see what it feels like, what
- 31:25Speaker 1: it feels like, So I went to write it and
- 31:28Speaker 1: got like a plastic Christmas tree and I just put
- 31:31Speaker 1: it and I put it in my apartment and I
- 31:35Speaker 1: just looked at it, and I left it there for
- 31:37Speaker 1: like maybe one night, and then I took an out
- 31:39Speaker 1: through it in trash. But I just wanted to see
- 31:42Speaker 1: what it felt like. You never just wanted to see.
- 31:44Speaker 1: I mean, I do it now because I got to
- 31:45Speaker 1: know a whole family. So it's like my wife up
- 31:48Speaker 1: so you'd be out here cler in Christmas. I enjoy
- 31:50Speaker 1: it though, but not because of Yo. That's so awkward
- 31:54Speaker 1: with you. Did you ever feel like an outside in
- 31:59Speaker 1: high school? Sad way? I also went to a school
- 32:02Speaker 1: that was an art school, so everybody in the school
- 32:05Speaker 1: was kind of an outsider, you know what I mean.
- 32:07Speaker 1: Everyone was very accepted because you were the only reason
- 32:09Speaker 1: we're there in the first place was because you were
- 32:11Speaker 1: kind of a weirdo. It encouraged us all to go
- 32:13Speaker 1: into like whatever we wanted to do, and I wish
- 32:15Speaker 1: more kids had that for sure. Did you have any
- 32:17Speaker 1: insecurity growing up? There was a point where I thought
- 32:20Speaker 1: if I had a big butt and I could sing,
- 32:22Speaker 1: and my life would be different, and that was an
- 32:25Speaker 1: insecurity for a while. I remember like stuffing my pants,
- 32:29Speaker 1: like I wore like three pairs of tights to school
- 32:31Speaker 1: one day because I wanted to have a bigger butt
- 32:33Speaker 1: And I know, I don't know what the girls are
- 32:36Speaker 1: gonna do now, I mean, for me, it was just
- 32:40Speaker 1: I was trying to, like you, just wanted to be
- 32:42Speaker 1: like I was a little stick thin little girl and
- 32:44Speaker 1: who was popular time, like Buffy the body Oh yeah,
- 32:46Speaker 1: what's her name from? Flavor of Love? Delicious? And like
- 32:50Speaker 1: you just wanted to you know, So that was probably
- 32:53Speaker 1: my only insecurity. I had a really bad breakup in
- 32:57Speaker 1: college high school boyfriend and in college we broke up
- 33:01Speaker 1: and it was so bad. It was so bad that
- 33:03Speaker 1: I had no choice but to put myself back together.
- 33:06Speaker 1: And when you get your heart broken that bad and
- 33:09Speaker 1: everything falls apart and you put yourself back together, you didn't,
- 33:11Speaker 1: You didn't become invincible. And then like all that kind
- 33:14Speaker 1: of stuff doesn't matter anymore, Like I just don't care
- 33:17Speaker 1: about it anymore. What helps you put things back together?
- 33:20Speaker 1: And you said everything fell apart after the breakup? Like,
- 33:22Speaker 1: did you start going to see a therapists? Are? No?
- 33:25Speaker 1: Therapy wasn't It wasn't the conversation that it is now,
- 33:27Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? At the time, I
- 33:29Speaker 1: think I probably should have back then because I was
- 33:32Speaker 1: like depressed, but I barely had the language to identify
- 33:36Speaker 1: it as depression. Did you drink really smokes? No? I
- 33:39Speaker 1: wish no. I probably would have helped me gift through
- 33:41Speaker 1: it better. No, I was such a nube at the time.
- 33:43Speaker 1: I didn't really drink. I had many days that were
- 33:47Speaker 1: pretty much dropped out of school because of that, which
- 33:49Speaker 1: was crazy. I never I don't talk about that a lot,
- 33:51Speaker 1: but I did pretty much drop out because I just
- 33:53Speaker 1: could not peel myself out of the bed and depression.
- 33:57Speaker 1: It was depression, and I just didn't identify it as
- 33:59Speaker 1: a And I watched the same DVD of Bruce Almighty
- 34:03Speaker 1: on repeat every day. I couldn't pick up the remote
- 34:07Speaker 1: to change the DVD. I couldn't even peel myself out
- 34:10Speaker 1: of bed to take the DVD out of the DVD players.
- 34:12Speaker 1: I watched it over and over. I sought out like
- 34:14Speaker 1: help from friends, you know, like friends helped me out
- 34:16Speaker 1: big time. I had one friend, Brandy, who gave me
- 34:19Speaker 1: a list of affirmations to say in the window, sorry,
- 34:22Speaker 1: in the window, in the mirror, and that I remember
- 34:24Speaker 1: that being a specific thing that helped me. I remember
- 34:25Speaker 1: thinking it was very stupid, but then I would say
- 34:27Speaker 1: the affirmation to myself in the mirror every single day,
- 34:30Speaker 1: and after a year it felt like they had worked.
- 34:33Speaker 1: It's crazy, those little things like that. I picked myself
- 34:36Speaker 1: back up eventually and started making plans to work, to
- 34:42Speaker 1: go to LA. It was really making plans that helped
- 34:47Speaker 1: pull me out of that, I think, because even when
- 34:49Speaker 1: I came to LA, I was still dealing with it,
- 34:51Speaker 1: and I just, I don't know, I worked my way
- 34:54Speaker 1: out of it. Did it feel you in some way?
- 34:56Speaker 1: Like I always think about that. Uh, I think that
- 34:58Speaker 1: Margu Zuckerberg will uniting and he kept hitting created a
- 35:02Speaker 1: faceboo basing because of this young lady. But if you
- 35:04Speaker 1: like that, yeah, I mean when that away from broke
- 35:07Speaker 1: over me, I was like, I don't know how, but
- 35:09Speaker 1: you see my face everywhere and then and I did
- 35:13Speaker 1: not know how, and then you know, like then I
- 35:16Speaker 1: like head gone viral and Instagram and stuff like that.
- 35:19Speaker 1: So I think it definitely did. But now that's all
- 35:22Speaker 1: going away. I like, did that and we're friends now
- 35:25Speaker 1: and yeah, but it definitely feeled me at the time. Yeah,
- 35:29Speaker 1: for sure. We got more with Quinta Brunson. When we
- 35:31Speaker 1: come back, don't move. It's to Breakfast Club the morning
- 35:34Speaker 1: morning everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy
- 35:38Speaker 1: we all to Breakfast Club, still kicking it with Quinta Brunton. Charlomagne,
- 35:42Speaker 1: did you ever start your own journey going to therapy?
- 35:45Speaker 1: Things like that, like how does quint the heal? I
- 35:48Speaker 1: haven't gone to therapy. I do have a journey though,
- 35:50Speaker 1: Like there are things that I do to take care
- 35:52Speaker 1: of my mental health. Sometimes that's just resting, Sometimes that's
- 35:56Speaker 1: just being with friends and family when I need to.
- 35:59Speaker 1: Sometimes it's so checking in with myself, making sure I'm
- 36:03Speaker 1: not doing harmful things to my for my mental health,
- 36:06Speaker 1: like comparisons. I think that's a small thing that people
- 36:08Speaker 1: don't think about that really messes with your mental health,
- 36:11Speaker 1: you know, comparing, And I always have to check in,
- 36:13Speaker 1: especially as I'm you know, having this moment with Abbod.
- 36:16Speaker 1: I always have to check in and ground myself, so
- 36:19Speaker 1: I try to be very active doing that. I feel
- 36:22Speaker 1: like my mental health is in a really good place,
- 36:24Speaker 1: but if it ever weren't, I would tap in and
- 36:29Speaker 1: not ignore it. I think your parents had no clue
- 36:32Speaker 1: you were taking classes at the Second City in Chicago
- 36:35Speaker 1: while you were studying at Temple in Philly. How did
- 36:38Speaker 1: you pull that off? I told them I was saying
- 36:41Speaker 1: in my friend's dorm and I would be like, oh,
- 36:44Speaker 1: I'm staying on campus, gotta study. Just lying. I was
- 36:50Speaker 1: such a little liar. I had to, though, And it
- 36:52Speaker 1: was funny because you would have thought I was, like,
- 36:54Speaker 1: you know, doing something really bad and I'm going to
- 36:57Speaker 1: take improv classes. And I would lie and be like,
- 37:01Speaker 1: I'm going to a campus party and meanwhile I'd be
- 37:03Speaker 1: flying to Chicago, and I did it like seven times.
- 37:06Speaker 1: I don't know how I pulled it off. Make you
- 37:09Speaker 1: feel like you was living like a duel, absolutely lived
- 37:11Speaker 1: a double life for a long time. Who had more
- 37:14Speaker 1: influence on your career Your sixth grade teacher, Miss Abbott.
- 37:17Speaker 1: I heard you ran into Paul Rudd at a movie theater. Yeah,
- 37:21Speaker 1: that little gym that Paul Rudd dropped on me that
- 37:24Speaker 1: I don't that he barely remembers. It was just one
- 37:26Speaker 1: of those little sparks that makes you believe something as
- 37:29Speaker 1: possible about my teacher, Miss Abbott and my mother. Really,
- 37:32Speaker 1: who's like the inspiration behind Abbott? Your teachers are to
- 37:37Speaker 1: me ultimately responsible for your ability to read, right, articulate,
- 37:41Speaker 1: present yourself. They turn you into a human. So I
- 37:44Speaker 1: was really fortunate enough to have really good teachers that
- 37:47Speaker 1: I loved. It always like bugs me out when people
- 37:49Speaker 1: talk about having a teacher they hated. I just never
- 37:51Speaker 1: had that experience. So not only did it inspire me
- 37:54Speaker 1: to make Abbott clearly influential for that reason, but they
- 37:58Speaker 1: were good at making people like like, turning kids into
- 38:03Speaker 1: good people, citizens, creators, etc. I would is a hit
- 38:09Speaker 1: like a hit, hit like a big like, how does
- 38:14Speaker 1: it feel to receive so much praise for the show.
- 38:16Speaker 1: It's so crazy, I you know, I keep saying, when
- 38:21Speaker 1: we made the show and we sold it, we felt
- 38:23Speaker 1: like this is good. When I wrote the pilot, I
- 38:25Speaker 1: was like, this is good. We got the writers and
- 38:26Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, we're making good stuff here, right,
- 38:28Speaker 1: And then you get on set and everyone's like, we
- 38:31Speaker 1: feel like we'ren't making a good show. Like from everybody
- 38:34Speaker 1: from you know, hear and makeup to directors, to the
- 38:37Speaker 1: to the COVID crew, everyone's like, this feels good. And
- 38:40Speaker 1: so we knew we're making something good. But for it
- 38:43Speaker 1: to go out into the world and people feel the
- 38:45Speaker 1: same way and to come to the show so soon.
- 38:47Speaker 1: I was expecting it to be like I don't know.
- 38:49Speaker 1: I was like, all right, it's airing weekly on ABC,
- 38:52Speaker 1: like it's not going to catch one until it's full
- 38:54Speaker 1: season on streaming. I did not imagine this energy so fast,
- 38:59Speaker 1: And I'm just like in awe of it, very humbled
- 39:02Speaker 1: by it. I'm so happy that people are seeking out
- 39:06Speaker 1: something like this to watch, do you know what I mean?
- 39:08Speaker 1: There are times I wondered if it was too I
- 39:10Speaker 1: knew it was good, but I was like, ah, man,
- 39:11Speaker 1: I wonder if people don't want heartwarming. I don't know
- 39:15Speaker 1: where people are these days, but I knew that there
- 39:18Speaker 1: was a market there for it because people keep rewatching
- 39:20Speaker 1: old sitcoms or Netflix. My nieces fourteen and she's just
- 39:24Speaker 1: now discovering, like you know, friends and the Office, and
- 39:28Speaker 1: she she loves it. She loves the feel of it,
- 39:31Speaker 1: you know. And I was like, so that feeling there
- 39:33Speaker 1: will always be run for that. I guess I just
- 39:35Speaker 1: expected people to ignore it for a while. And the
- 39:38Speaker 1: fact that they hadn't, I mean, thank you, thanks to
- 39:40Speaker 1: everyone for watching, because you know, like Avid, is what
- 39:43Speaker 1: happens when these networks give black creatives real budgets and
- 39:46Speaker 1: and don't get in their way. Yeah, when it comes
- 39:49Speaker 1: to notes and stuff like that, I have to agree
- 39:50Speaker 1: with that. They sold ABC to me, like, here's what
- 39:52Speaker 1: we can do for you, Here's how we want to
- 39:55Speaker 1: listen to and support you. I'd never had a beating
- 39:57Speaker 1: like that in my life. I knew it was the
- 39:58Speaker 1: partnership I needed to create the it is kind of
- 40:00Speaker 1: a show. Wow, you know, I knew that they were
- 40:02Speaker 1: gonna let me let me cook. You don't really get
- 40:06Speaker 1: that on network. I knew that this was a network
- 40:08Speaker 1: sitcom too. I knew it was twenty two minutes. I
- 40:11Speaker 1: knew that it was built for that. You know that
- 40:14Speaker 1: World ABC was definitely the place I just felt they
- 40:17Speaker 1: were gonna let me. They believed in me. Like you said,
- 40:20Speaker 1: the budget was there up front. You know, it wasn't
- 40:22Speaker 1: a fight for because it's surprising how much you know,
- 40:26Speaker 1: we still have to fight for penny sometimes. Absolutely. Yeah,
- 40:29Speaker 1: I mean it's clear you have a lot of respect
- 40:30Speaker 1: for teachers, and you know I love that because my
- 40:32Speaker 1: mom is a post school Yeah. So did you set
- 40:34Speaker 1: out to make to make commentary on undefunded schools? Was
- 40:38Speaker 1: that the goal? Not necessarily? I think a good show
- 40:43Speaker 1: begins with a grounded topic, right, Like we may not
- 40:47Speaker 1: think of it that way, but like The Office was about, um,
- 40:51Speaker 1: you know, the the work crisis at the time. You know,
- 40:55Speaker 1: we were coming out of recession, you know what I mean.
- 40:57Speaker 1: And when you build something from that play, it automatically
- 41:01Speaker 1: yields good fruit most of the time. So my idea
- 41:04Speaker 1: was to begin from that place. We have this, I've
- 41:07Speaker 1: seen it firsthand what teachers go through from day to day.
- 41:10Speaker 1: But I wasn't necessarily setting out to change anything or
- 41:16Speaker 1: like beat people over the head with the message. I
- 41:19Speaker 1: just knew that if we started in the real place,
- 41:21Speaker 1: with the state of where we are right now, that
- 41:24Speaker 1: that's the best way to start a comedy. I think
- 41:26Speaker 1: that's because a lot of people just like to be
- 41:28Speaker 1: funny first, and that's what you know, funny right, funny.
- 41:31Speaker 1: It's like, no, can I create a story? Can something
- 41:34Speaker 1: real and funny will come? That's it's weird because people
- 41:37Speaker 1: look at it. The jokes are really like the easy part.
- 41:40Speaker 1: You can you know whatever, but you have to have
- 41:41Speaker 1: a soul of a show first. The show doesn't have
- 41:44Speaker 1: a soul then you know what I mean, Like the
- 41:46Speaker 1: jokes don't matter and anyone can say them. Like the
- 41:48Speaker 1: soul of the show creates the humor of the show.
- 41:51Speaker 1: There are things that people find funny in the show
- 41:53Speaker 1: that aren't even jokes, but it's because you know the
- 41:55Speaker 1: soul of the show. And I think that also is
- 41:57Speaker 1: a marker of a good comedy, like in Sidefeld, like
- 42:00Speaker 1: no soup for you like means nothing if you haven't
- 42:03Speaker 1: seen Seinfeld, But if you have seen Seinfeld, that can
- 42:06Speaker 1: make you cry laughing and that's because of the soul
- 42:09Speaker 1: of the comedy, you know, like that kind of stuff matters.
- 42:12Speaker 1: I think you're making a good show. I think I
- 42:14Speaker 1: read some with it. You don't like tackling issues. I
- 42:17Speaker 1: don't know really If this gets tackled, and so be it.
- 42:20Speaker 1: But I'm trying to like, that's so much pressure, and
- 42:26Speaker 1: why do we always have to tackle issues? How could
- 42:29Speaker 1: make can't make some dumb like you know, like that's
- 42:32Speaker 1: a great point. I think it's only because black people
- 42:36Speaker 1: feel like we're not being represented, so we kind of
- 42:39Speaker 1: want to show the world like what's going on a
- 42:41Speaker 1: lot of times. But is it still not representation if
- 42:43Speaker 1: not true? You know what I'm saying. I really don't
- 42:46Speaker 1: like I said that in an interview and I felt
- 42:49Speaker 1: like that came out wrong. But I'm just saying, like,
- 42:50Speaker 1: I don't want to start from that point because that's
- 42:52Speaker 1: not funny to me. That's not where I operate best.
- 42:54Speaker 1: Like I said, the issue gets tackled and so be it.
- 42:56Speaker 1: Similar like what's happening with the Abbott But those were
- 42:59Speaker 1: naturally the places we were going to go and talking
- 43:01Speaker 1: about what happens in a school, what happens with the
- 43:03Speaker 1: school district, but starting there just feels so you know
- 43:08Speaker 1: what I mean, how do you feel when you think about,
- 43:10Speaker 1: you know, the fact that people might see themselves in
- 43:13Speaker 1: the character of Janine. I love that. That makes me happy.
- 43:18Speaker 1: I actually love when girls will tweet and say, oh
- 43:22Speaker 1: my god, I think I'm Janine, like like it's the
- 43:24Speaker 1: worst revelation because you know, Jane's kind of annoying and peppie,
- 43:29Speaker 1: but she's earnest, and I think it's beautiful that people
- 43:32Speaker 1: can see themselves be all of that. You know. One
- 43:35Speaker 1: of the big things for me with Janine was clearly
- 43:39Speaker 1: she has a big heart, but to a fault, you know,
- 43:42Speaker 1: and she's wrong a lot and right a lot. And
- 43:44Speaker 1: I think it's really cool that young women, and especially
- 43:49Speaker 1: young black women can see themselves in this poorly dressed
- 43:54Speaker 1: like always making mistakes girl. I think that's actually special
- 43:57Speaker 1: for us. To me, that feels like a version of representation,
- 44:02Speaker 1: like to identify with someone who is not together yet.
- 44:07Speaker 1: I think that's fun. You know. So at some point
- 44:10Speaker 1: she has to break up with the aspiring rapper though, okay,
- 44:13Speaker 1: what is why are people so mad? People like, like,
- 44:17Speaker 1: because you could do better? People's parents call me we
- 44:19Speaker 1: got to lose Trek. I'd be like, what, Like I
- 44:23Speaker 1: was at like a Jewish wedding and this Jewis grandmother
- 44:25Speaker 1: grabbed my face and was like, you need to leave
- 44:27Speaker 1: the boyfriend. I'm like this, it's just a show, and
- 44:29Speaker 1: she's like, I don't like it. Like people felt very strongly,
- 44:32Speaker 1: if he makes it, are you gonna You're gonna get
- 44:34Speaker 1: a deal? You gonna sign our dream chases? Or sometimes look,
- 44:38Speaker 1: people hated him in an episode two Now They're said
- 44:41Speaker 1: they nearly don't want to see him go after his
- 44:42Speaker 1: fade performance. They're like, they're all about him. We got
- 44:45Speaker 1: more with Quinta Brunston when we come back, don't move.
- 44:48Speaker 1: It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,
- 44:52Speaker 1: Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy we are to Breakfast Club
- 44:55Speaker 1: still kicking him with Quinta Brunton. Charlomagne, you said Abbott
- 44:58Speaker 1: is the first time since high school did your said
- 45:00Speaker 1: she's proud of you. Wow, how didn't make you feel?
- 45:04Speaker 1: That was a moment. I almost cried when she said that,
- 45:07Speaker 1: and she didn't even know why. I was like, you
- 45:08Speaker 1: have not said that to me, and I don't know
- 45:10Speaker 1: how long because everything else I was doing, you know,
- 45:13Speaker 1: Witnesses she found blasphemous, like Black Lady Sketchule. She was
- 45:15Speaker 1: like HBO the nudity network, and I was like yeah,
- 45:19Speaker 1: So she didn't like that. I would tell her or
- 45:21Speaker 1: this place called BuzzFeed, and she would like, tell me
- 45:24Speaker 1: the truth. Are you stripping? And it'd be like she
- 45:27Speaker 1: really could not. I'm so serious. She could not understand
- 45:31Speaker 1: what but it made no sense to her. And I
- 45:33Speaker 1: showed her the website and she's like, this is nothing.
- 45:36Speaker 1: This is a website. And I would show her videos
- 45:38Speaker 1: and she's like still not, well, how are you making
- 45:40Speaker 1: money from this? But now you know ABC, she can
- 45:43Speaker 1: understand a TV show that made sense to her, So
- 45:47Speaker 1: she gets it now and she loves it. She's such
- 45:49Speaker 1: a sitcom watcher that if she didn't like it, she
- 45:53Speaker 1: would like say it like her comedy opinion means a
- 45:56Speaker 1: lot to me. She told me two weeks ago, She's like,
- 45:59Speaker 1: I'll watch this even if you know it wasn't your show,
- 46:01Speaker 1: Like I love this show. That means a lot to
- 46:04Speaker 1: me for sure. I don't think parents realize how much
- 46:06Speaker 1: those I love you and I'm proud of you. How
- 46:08Speaker 1: far they go for all of us, even when we've
- 46:11Speaker 1: become a dose that a child still wants to hear that.
- 46:13Speaker 1: I know she probably won't told me again for like
- 46:15Speaker 1: ten years, but I'm gonna hold on to that one.
- 46:17Speaker 1: Sorr Brabbit executive producer, head writer as well. Yes, okay,
- 46:21Speaker 1: it's a lot of responsibility. Yeah, it's got to be
- 46:23Speaker 1: at least two hundred people. Yeah, right, Yeah, it's a
- 46:26Speaker 1: lot of pressure. Does that weigh on you mentally? Only
- 46:29Speaker 1: sometimes when I feel I like, even right now, I'm
- 46:33Speaker 1: like I have to I am speaking for myself, but
- 46:35Speaker 1: I do feel like I need to represent an entire
- 46:38Speaker 1: group of people. I want people to be able to
- 46:40Speaker 1: have jobs next year on the Abbit. I want to
- 46:43Speaker 1: make sure the show keeps going, so I want to
- 46:46Speaker 1: try to present myself on behalf of the entire production.
- 46:51Speaker 1: And besides that, No, because everybody else is so good
- 46:55Speaker 1: at their jobs that it made my life so much easier.
- 46:58Speaker 1: It made it easier to delegate, to communicate because everyone
- 47:02Speaker 1: else was so fantastic. Yes, it's a lot of work
- 47:05Speaker 1: and a lot of pressure, but I don't feel it
- 47:07Speaker 1: because everyone rose to the occasion. Sunded. I play video
- 47:12Speaker 1: games yep, I go bowling. I see my family as
- 47:16Speaker 1: much as I can. I talk to my family constantly
- 47:20Speaker 1: because my family is they're not like my sisters still
- 47:23Speaker 1: just like will make fun of me, and I think
- 47:26Speaker 1: I need that, do you know what I mean? And
- 47:28Speaker 1: they keep me very ground. They're just staying connected to
- 47:30Speaker 1: them and I honestly even't staying connected to Philly, like
- 47:33Speaker 1: working with m Philly organizations. There's an organization called Yeah
- 47:37Speaker 1: Philly that I've been working with since twenty nineteen and
- 47:41Speaker 1: that they work with youth in the area. It's like
- 47:43Speaker 1: an anti gun violence initiative ran by Philly kids. It's
- 47:48Speaker 1: incredible and just saying tapped in with the city and
- 47:51Speaker 1: my family, I think really keeps me, keeps my feet
- 47:54Speaker 1: on the ground. Do you feel success yet? I feel
- 47:57Speaker 1: it in small ways, Like when I was like, I'm
- 48:00Speaker 1: gonna buy a cappuccino maker. I know that seems small people,
- 48:06Speaker 1: but like little ways where I'm like, oh, and then
- 48:09Speaker 1: I called my business managin it like leave us alone
- 48:12Speaker 1: buy the cappuccino maker, and I just was like, okay,
- 48:14Speaker 1: I thought, so little ways like that where I want
- 48:16Speaker 1: to buy something but I'm so used to being I
- 48:18Speaker 1: used to be broke for a long time, so I
- 48:21Speaker 1: don't know, those things seem big to me. This wasn't
- 48:23Speaker 1: doing this last year. I was afraid to talk to you. Actually,
- 48:26Speaker 1: I was like afraid because your show. Sometimes You're like yeah,
- 48:29Speaker 1: and I was like, oh my god, I've talked to
- 48:31Speaker 1: Charlotte Magine and I was like, but that's also a
- 48:33Speaker 1: good sign of doing something. I want that reputation. By
- 48:37Speaker 1: the way, no positive affirmations for me. This has been nice,
- 48:43Speaker 1: this has been lovely. This is positive, right, this has
- 48:46Speaker 1: been lovely, But I have happened such a good time. Yeah,
- 48:49Speaker 1: final question, what does Quinta ultimately want to do? What
- 48:54Speaker 1: do you want out of all of this? I hope
- 48:57Speaker 1: that after you know, the show finished, is airing it,
- 49:01Speaker 1: it will have made something in the world just a
- 49:04Speaker 1: little bit better. And I don't want to do that
- 49:07Speaker 1: by putting it in the show. I just want people
- 49:09Speaker 1: to have a good time watching it. I want them
- 49:11Speaker 1: to leave thinking about the human condition a little bit more.
- 49:17Speaker 1: As you can see, we've we've started doing our part
- 49:20Speaker 1: with helping with schools and so we've got that covered.
- 49:23Speaker 1: But if other people are inspired to go, you know,
- 49:27Speaker 1: help in any way they came to schools. That's incredible.
- 49:29Speaker 1: I love when people like just tell me, hey, I
- 49:31Speaker 1: made a donation today, or hey, I checked into a meeting,
- 49:34Speaker 1: a local meeting, because anyone can go to these meetings
- 49:37Speaker 1: for schools at you know, government meetings or whatever. All
- 49:39Speaker 1: that makes me really happy. And other than that, I'd
- 49:44Speaker 1: like a farm eventually. Oh so I'm working toward that
- 49:48Speaker 1: nice farm. I'll live in la and I'll live in
- 49:50Speaker 1: the city and stuff. But one day I want to
- 49:52Speaker 1: retire and you will never see me again. Why a farm?
- 49:55Speaker 1: Why not a farm? Everything's going to show. I want
- 49:58Speaker 1: to grow my own food. I want to have a
- 50:00Speaker 1: compound and uh, you know, I have some animals, and
- 50:03Speaker 1: so that's my plan. Quinta, it was a pleasure and
- 50:06Speaker 1: I just want to continue to see you grow. This
- 50:10Speaker 1: was lovely, I hope. So it was like, this was
- 50:13Speaker 1: a wonderful experience. It's a long change of perception to me.
- 50:16Speaker 1: You hated me. I didn't know what did you think
- 50:18Speaker 1: of me? To answer that, I don't want to know.
- 50:21Speaker 1: You know what, I don't want to know for my
- 50:22Speaker 1: own compion's sake. Okay, yes, thank you, thank listen, Oh

- 51:17Speaker 1: we've got If we don't hurt them, how are they
- 51:19Speaker 1: going to understand? Well, different, it's a different way. There's
- 51:23Speaker 1: a way I'm doing it, way off. It's yeah, I'm
- 51:26Speaker 1: going to exact tackle this on my own. They are
- 51:28Speaker 1: nice on text. No, if they have tips, don't just
- 51:32Speaker 1: have your number. Oh well then they're not ops, all right.
- 51:36Speaker 1: In addition to that, she talks about how quickly she writes?
- 51:40Speaker 1: How quickly can you write her apps? Well, Chun Lee,
- 51:43Speaker 1: I wrote very quickly, like in a couple of hours,
- 51:46Speaker 1: I had everything around. Oh wow, m do you think
- 51:49Speaker 1: you're able to write a beat about anything? Um, you
- 51:53Speaker 1: need any help? I'm a pretty good beat boxer and
- 51:56Speaker 1: do it? And Jane um looking good like like we
- 52:06Speaker 1: know they would shoot. Oh wait, I thought we were
- 52:11Speaker 1: Dune all right. In addition to them, Nikki talked about anxiety.
- 52:16Speaker 1: Do you struggle with that without anxiety because in so
- 52:19Speaker 1: many ways you are so unbelievably confident. What is that
- 52:24Speaker 1: that mix between anxiety nerves matched with an extreme amount
- 52:31Speaker 1: of confidence. I don't know. I think when I was younger,
- 52:36Speaker 1: probably my more natural state was to be more more confident.
- 52:40Speaker 1: But I think when you are a woman and you're
- 52:42Speaker 1: in the public eye all the time, you um, if
- 52:46Speaker 1: you're not careful, you can become less confident because you're
- 52:48Speaker 1: being constantly scrutinized, you know. And I'm sure I think
- 52:53Speaker 1: it's natural. It's not a natural for a human being
- 52:56Speaker 1: to just always feel like everyone's critiquing them. I am sure,
- 53:01Speaker 1: And I'm sure social media heightened it. I mean, it's already.
- 53:03Speaker 1: Anxiety is already the most common mental illness in the US,
- 53:05Speaker 1: effects over forty million adults. I'm sure the constant critique
- 53:10Speaker 1: from social media heightens it, but doesn't everybody happens, all right.
- 53:14Speaker 1: I was talking about daughter about this the other day.
- 53:15Speaker 1: Doesn't like everybody have anxiety when they have to do something.
- 53:18Speaker 1: You have a little bit of anxiety, right. I think
- 53:20Speaker 1: it's probably a difference between nerves and anxiety, yes, but
- 53:24Speaker 1: I mean it is the most common mental illness in
- 53:26Speaker 1: the United States. Anxiety disis all right now. Caitlin Jenner
- 53:30Speaker 1: had a sit down interview with The Folks and podcast,
- 53:33Speaker 1: and some of the things she talked about is trusting Kanye. Actually,
- 53:38Speaker 1: I get along very well with Kanye. I really like Kanye.
- 53:43Speaker 1: Every time we've been together, he's been absolutely great, especially
- 53:46Speaker 1: during the transition and this and that, he was absolutely phenomenal.
- 53:50Speaker 1: I'm still today when I say I'm we're good friends.
- 53:54Speaker 1: I just have to be a little careful because, you know,
- 53:57Speaker 1: he said some things, especially towards the family. Tell you
- 54:00Speaker 1: that you know, obviously I'm on the family side, you know,
- 54:04Speaker 1: and I wish him nothing but the best, and you know,
- 54:07Speaker 1: and you know, I'd love to see him again. Now
- 54:11Speaker 1: here's kately and Jenner also talking about her transition. I
- 54:16Speaker 1: made the decision years earlier that if I were to
- 54:19Speaker 1: do that, yeah I would. I would do it all
- 54:21Speaker 1: the way or not at all. All the way means
- 54:23Speaker 1: is a transition to the other part. And I'm just yeah, yeah,
- 54:27Speaker 1: it was. Yeah. What does that surgery like? Like? How
- 54:29Speaker 1: does I what is that surgery? Can't get too much
- 54:32Speaker 1: and I don't want to go into until have to specifics.
- 54:37Speaker 1: But as doctors say, it's easier to take it off
- 54:40Speaker 1: than it is to put it on. What you heard
- 54:43Speaker 1: him when a doctor's purged on, what does that mean?
- 54:46Speaker 1: Putting it on the attack? A prosthetic, prosthetic You can

- 57:37Speaker 1: latest on that police killing of a black man. Not
- 57:39Speaker 1: a new developments in the deadly spas shooting ramps. Yes,
- 57:41Speaker 1: it was a really bad day for him, and this
- 57:43Speaker 1: is what he did, and so we are in a
- 57:45Speaker 1: state of emergency. Okay. White supremacist violence is always has
- 57:50Speaker 1: been the number one threat to our society. But I'm
- 57:53Speaker 1: also very proud that my wife was white. The breakfast
- 57:57Speaker 1: club bitches. Sorry, Ronny, please tell me why I was.
- 58:00Speaker 1: I your donkey every day? Wow? Oh donkey today for
- 58:03Speaker 1: Thursday April seven. To make sure that's today for this
- 58:06Speaker 1: Thursday April seven. Yess it is goes to Ohio Senate
- 58:09Speaker 1: candidate JD. Vance. Let me tell you something. I'm giving
- 58:12Speaker 1: JD vans donkey today simply because I'm black, all right,
- 58:15Speaker 1: and as a black man, I have to stand against racism. Okay,
- 58:18Speaker 1: I also have to stand against xenophobia, all right. What
- 58:20Speaker 1: did doctor Martin Luther King Jr. Say? And injustice anywhere
- 58:22Speaker 1: as a threat to justice everywhere? Yes, I totally agree
- 58:25Speaker 1: with that. That's how I feel morally. But marketing wise,
- 58:29Speaker 1: I think what JD Vance did is incredible. Okay, it's bold,
- 58:32Speaker 1: it's honest, and it's provocative. It gets to people going,
- 58:35Speaker 1: all right, cheriously, When I google JD Vance's name, it
- 58:38Speaker 1: had been searched over sixteen million times this morning. Right,
- 58:40Speaker 1: this ad that he created has cause the conversation. Mostly
- 58:44Speaker 1: that conversation is saying how it's racist and xenophobic, because
- 58:48Speaker 1: it is. But do you think Jady Vans cares? Hell? No,
- 58:50Speaker 1: because the more people who talk about his ad, the
- 58:52Speaker 1: more people it reaches, and the people he is talking
- 58:55Speaker 1: to in the ad love it. Okay. All he's trying
- 58:58Speaker 1: to do is find more of his tribe. He's running
- 59:00Speaker 1: to send it in Ohio. But when something becomes a
- 59:02Speaker 1: national story, then that means more people in Ohio will
- 59:05Speaker 1: see it. And if they can answer to two questions
- 59:08Speaker 1: he asked in the beginning of the ad with a
- 59:10Speaker 1: resounding yes, even if they feel like that a little bit,
- 59:13Speaker 1: then guess what they found The human they want to
- 59:16Speaker 1: vote for in jd Vance. Would you like to hear
- 59:18Speaker 1: Jade Vance's campaign act so we can properly discuss We'll
- 59:22Speaker 1: here you go. Are you a racist? Do you hate Mexicans?
- 59:27Speaker 1: The media calls US racists for wanting to build Trump's wall.
- 59:30Speaker 1: They censor us, but it doesn't change the truth. Joe
- 59:33Speaker 1: Biden's open border is killing Ohioans with more illegal drugs
- 59:37Speaker 1: and more Democrat voters pouring into this country. This issue
- 59:40Speaker 1: is personal. I nearly lost my mother to the poison
- 59:43Speaker 1: coming across our border. No child should grow up an orphan.
- 59:47Speaker 1: I'm JD Vance and I approve this message because whatever
- 59:50Speaker 1: they call us, we will put America first. Jesus Christ.
- 59:54Speaker 1: Democrats muse came to talk directly to their most loyal
- 59:56Speaker 1: voting block, which is black women and black men. They
- 59:58Speaker 1: can't even pretend. Okay, they'd be afraid to talk directly
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: to us and talk directly about our issues because they
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: don't want to scale off those hypothetical, unwoke white swing voters. Meanwhile,
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: the GOP on the state and national level is like,
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: what's popping? Because you racist? Were racist too? What's happening? Okay?
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: It is a part of me that respects this. I
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: don't like pretenders, Okay. I want everyone to be who
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: they are. I personally think the world will be a
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: much better place if we all just put what we
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: believe on the table. That way, it's no mixing of
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: energies that don't need to be together. Okay. We waste
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: so much time presenting ourselves as things we are not,
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: and that's just not sustainable over time. Over time, the
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: real you will reveal itself. Good are bad, okay, the
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: best are the worst, to you will eventually reveal itself.
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: Now here's the thing about politicians, though. The reason this
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: is dangerous is when you're a politicians, because politicians are
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: supposed to be serving self all people. Okay, you gotta
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: be objective. It shouldn't be about party, race, sexuality, gender,
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: religious beliefs. She's supposed to be here to serve all
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: of us. But we know that's not how this works.
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: So why would someone like Jade Vance be so open
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: and honest about how he feels? Because he knows in
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: Ohio where his bread is buttered? Okay? And the bread
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: in Ohio is white, all right, really white, highly processed
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: flower and lots of add It is white, okay. JD
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: is buttering the kind of white bread that can that
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: contributes to obesity, heart disease, and diabetes when you eat
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: too much of it. So he don't care about what
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: anyone else is talking about. Okay. Eighty one point seven
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: percent of people in Ohio are white. I don't know, okay,
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: how many white people in Ohio are racist and hate
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: Mexicans though, Okay, don't. I don't know. This isn't a
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: generalization of all white people in Ohio. But I do
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: know in the presidential elections of twenty sixteen and twenty twenty,
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: Donald Trump won Ohio. Okay, and Jade vanch is just
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: peeping game and he's saying to himself, oh, I know
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: who and what I need to tap into to possibly
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: get a victory here. Because JD. Vance back in twenty fifteen,
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: ain't he a whit Trump? You don't believe me. Listen
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: to the attack ads against him that are running in Ohio. JD.
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: Vance in his own words, I'm a never Trump guy.
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: I never liked him. There's somebody who doesn't like Trump.
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: I might have to hold my nose and vote for
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. I didn't vote for Trump because I can't
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: stomach Trump. I think that he's noxious, him being really
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: outrageous instances on Twitter. Vance called Trump quote reprehensible, an idiot,
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: and Vance loves Mitt Romney. I'm a never Trump guy.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: That's the real. JD. Vance. Club for Growth Action is
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: responsible for the content of this ad. Okay, that's how
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: you felt. But then Trump did what nobody thought he
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: could do, and that's when the presidential election in twenty
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: sixteen and anyone Ohio in twenty sixteen and twenty twenty.
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: And I guess that's when JD. Vance decided to go
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: full great replacement theory and change his changed his mind.
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: Listen to him talk about Trump. Now, why should Trump
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: voters Trump supporters vote for you? Yeah. Look, I mean
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: all of us say stupid things, and I happen to
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: say stupid things very publicly. You know, I've been very
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: public about the fact that I voted for the president
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, that I was wrong about the president
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: back in twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen, and that he's been
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: the greatest president of my lifetime. You know I was.
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: I was just north of thirty years old when I
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: said a lot of those things. A lot's changed in
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: my life. I re engaged with my faith. I got
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: baptized three years ago. I've had three kids since then.
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: You know, a lot's different. And one of the things
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: that's different is that I did change my mind about
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: Donald Trump. He was a great president. Yes, we all
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: say stupid things. I say stupid things, but dangerous things
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: that different, especially dangerous things that come with positions of power. Okay,
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: Jady Vans knows. You don't have to be real in politics,
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: just say what people want it here. Just because you
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: believe something doesn't make it the truth though, So you
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: can believe what Jady Vans is saying, but it's not
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: really is true if he just wants your votes. Okay,
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: you gotta understand. One of my favorite movies ever is
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: Bullworth all right, starring Warren Baby, Holly Berry, Don Cheatle Okay,
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: and Jay. Bullworth was a man who got tired of
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: lying to the people, and since he had hired a
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: hit man to kill him and thought he was gonna
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: die anyway, he just started telling the truth and it worked.
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: Only different was only difference was Bullwarth spoke, got against
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: racism and had solutions for poverty, and he called out
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: the dysfunction in the healthcare system, and he let folks
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: know about the corporate control of the political agenda. He
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: rebelled against all of that. Great movie. You should watch it. Okay,
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: I have been waiting for a liberal to speak truth
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: to power in that way, but alas that hasn't happened.
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: But Republicans they are they just don't care about the
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: least of us. Okay, So it makes you ask the question,
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: does it take more courage to be good or bad?
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: Does it take more courage to be right or wrong?
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: I don't know. I just know one party, Republicans are
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: just playing political courage, even if it's just to get votes,
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: while the other Democrats. While the other Democrats are showing
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: no courage at all. Kathy Griffin, could you do the honors?

- 1:05:59Speaker 1: who's that? Good morning, Brian, Good morning? How are you?
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: Question for you? I'd like to take Graham Rodgers, all
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: three guys something for a long time. I can't believe
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: I got through. Okay, maybe changed my life. So I
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: wanted to let you know that. And my question for
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: you is what happens when you're dating somebody and you
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: tell them that you just want to be friends, but
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: they continue to do whatever it is. It's trying to
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: be more than you to swing. Well, I'm confused. Are
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: you dating them or are you just friends? Well? I
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: tell them, I've said we're just friends from the very beginning,
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: but it's friends with benefit because I was going to
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: save your dating. You're not just friends. Yeah, Well it's funny.
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: I told her that I didn't want to date, just
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: be friends, but he thinks we're dating because she's always
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: planning things for us to do at like a couple
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: and I and not tell her that I three other women,
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: but she doesn't hear that. Okay, so you guys are
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: sleeping together and she wants more, but you want to
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: be single so you can date other people. Yeah, and
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: why is it? Are you just not in a space
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: in your life where you want to be committed or
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: is it that she's not the one? She's not the one, Well,
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: then you need to leave her alone. That's not fair
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: to her. You're dragging it out. You can see that
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: she wants more. You don't want more. You already know
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: she's not the one. If you care about her as
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: a person, you should leave her alone. Yeah. I told her,
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: I told her how I feel. But I'll stay away
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: for some time and thinks'll do she'll come back and
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: he let her back in. I mean, that's kind of
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: on you. You know what her intentions are, you know
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: what she wants. You know you're not going to do that.
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: So if you're making a decision to continue to see
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: her knowing that she has higher expectations, and every time
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: you still continue to sleep with her and take her
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: out and do these things, you're actually leading her on,
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: and then you're saying, well, she doesn't understand because you're
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: giving her a mixed message. Yeah, feeling that I just
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: got very way all right, Okay, there you go leave
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: her alone. If you care about a person at all
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: and you know that's not the one, stop sleeping with her.
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: I want to I want to remake friends, but I
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: know people you're not going to be mine. That's fine,
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: And look, sometimes I believe that if one person likes
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: the person more than the other, you can't really be friends. Now.
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: Maybe further on down the line, in a few months,
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: when she's moved on, y'all can be okay, But as
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: for now, her feelings are involved, and so as a
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: friend and somebody you want to be friends with, you
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: got to just make sure you cut cut that off.
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: It's painful and said, ripping a band aid off at first,
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: but in the long run, it's for the best. Yeah,
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: it's very like I care. I care about her at first,
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: but I know it's going to hurt her. Yeah, it's
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: hurting her more though, because at some point she'll be hurt.
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: So you might as well get it over with. If
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: you keep on doing this and keep on giving her
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: false hope. That's the worst than just saying it's not
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: gonna happen. I think that we should take a break
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: from even speaking to each other. I respect you, I
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: want us to be friends, but I also want to
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: make sure I'm doing the right thing about you so
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: you can actually get somebody in your life who wants
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: the same things that you want with you because you
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: deserve it. Okay, thank you, Yeah, welcome, Brian, good luck,

- 1:09:39Speaker 1: the breakfast club in the middle of ask ye Hello.
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: Who's this my name? Hey? What's your question for? Easy? Okay,
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: So my question is if your boyfriend and your girlfriend
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: are having inappropriate conversation on social media, should you Should
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: you go to your girlfriend first and let her notice
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: you don't like that, or do you go to your
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: voice friends? So when you say sorry, when you say girlfriend,
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: you mean just like your friend or you mean girlfriend
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: like you're dating both of them my friends. Okay, she's
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: both of your friends. Okay, but okay, she's both of
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: your friends. So who does she know first? And so
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: it's around the same time we all met, like elementary. Okay,
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: what's inappropriately? Okay? So well, exactly if they're also still
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: talking about how you know that you who've got like
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: they have power and stuff and that's why men won't
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: leave her alone, and then they're having like sexual conversation.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: Oh hell no, I'm having sex just like her and
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: other men having sex and why I want those men
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: leave her alone? And my boyfriend and Kern said, well
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: maybe yo, you who's got from power? Yeah, no, that's
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: awkward and that's uncomfortable, and you definitely need to talk
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: to both of them. The first person I would talk
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: to who are you closer to your boyfriend? Right? Yeah?
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: I mean, so I did it, and I went to
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: my boyfriend first. He's now my husband. Okay, he admitted
- 1:11:04Speaker 1: it was wrong, but I went to him first and
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: told him I didn't like that it was inappropriate, and
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: then after continued, I then went for her and was
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: like you know, hey, don't entertain my boyfriend while y'are
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: doing this because it's inappropriate. But you think it seem
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: like I'm a bad friend because I shouldn't have never
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: went for her. I should pick it up with my boyfriend. No,
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: I think you did the right thing. That's what I
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: would have did. First. I would have went to my
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: man and said these conversations are inappropriate. I'm not comfortable
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: with it, and then I would have went to her.
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: Do you feel like she likes him? She says that
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: she doesn't. I just I just feel like it's just
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: inappropriate regardless of whatever. You're my friend, and you know
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: what triggers me, so you know, if I got insecurity
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: issues or whatever, then don't cross that line. And then
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: as my south, you know me as well? Like right, no,
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: not just doing this long fast on social media? Did
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: they stop? Well? Yeah, we ended up having to block
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: her and everything. It turns really bad to where we
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: were about to fight and I shoot out. So okay,
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: I just want to say that ain't your real friend.
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: You should be able to go to your friend and
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: tell them anything, even if it's an uncomfortable conversation. And
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: so for her to tell you that you need to
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: just go to him and take it up with him alone. No,
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: you are the person that is instigating all of these things,
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: and as my friend, I should be able to have
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: those conversations with you. You You shouldn't even have done it
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: in the first place. But at least I'm coming to
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: you and telling you how I feel. Now. If you
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: still continue to act like you're not doing anything wrong
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: and you're not respecting my feelings, you're not really my friend.
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: And the fact that you had to block her, that
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: might mean that that's a sign that's not somebody's supposed
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: to be in your life, right, So I would question
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: if I needed to apologize and try to rekindle our friendship.
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: And that's kind of why I wanted to ask, like,
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: was I in the wrong anywhere here? You know, sometimes
- 1:12:48Speaker 1: you outgrow people. Sometimes she might be jealous of your
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: relationship with him, That's what somebody else told me, But
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: I don't know, and I'm not even saying that that
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: means she wants him, But she might be jealous of
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: the fact that the two of you together. Maybe she
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: feels left out, she wants to cause problems. But anybody
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: I feel like that makes your life more difficult, and
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: when you confront them about it, they're not receptive to
- 1:13:10Speaker 1: what you have to say. That's not somebody you need
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: in your life. Okay, yes, yes, ma'am. Okay, Now I
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: didn't marry my boyfriend, so he owned up to it
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: and admitted that he was wrong about it, and since
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: then we haven't had any issues like that. So was
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: that kind of like a good choice as well? Yeah?
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: You happy? Yeah, I'm happy. I mean, we got a
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: child together and everything now, and I'm happy. Happiness is
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: a great choice. Okay, Oh, thank you. I love y'all.
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: I listen to y'all every day while I'm throwing these
- 1:13:42Speaker 1: newspapers at the two houses. I love Ali, y'all, Angela,
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: yee Envy, Charlemagne. Thank you. I'm happy, you're happy? All right,
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: Thank you, y'all be blessed. All right, Well, thank you
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: you for that advice eight on drink five eight five
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: one on five one that we got rules all the way, Yes,
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: and tell about Real Housewives of New York as you know,
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: there's gonna be two different versions. And listen to what
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: Ebony K. Williams had to say about why she thinks
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: that happened. All right, We'll get to that next. It's
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club the morning. This is the Rumor Report
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: with Ebony K. Williams from the Real Housewives of New
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: York was on Reality with the King stitcher podcast that's
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: hosted by Carlos King, and she talked about how Real
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: Housewives New York is coming out with two different shows
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: and why she believes that Bravo is launching two versions
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: of Real Housewives of New York. Here's what she said. So,
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: I was right here in this Airbnb and I was working,
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: and I got it. I did get an advanced call
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: from production to let me know of the details. Wasn't
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: It wasn't hours before it was enough for me to
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: not be shocked. When when When when the general populace
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: found out out? I was informed, and I was in
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: my feelings for about two seconds only because you know,
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: I feel very strongly that I did everything in my power,
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: everything I knew, to do everything I could do to
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: show up um full throttle as my inaugural season as
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: a housewife. So one are the two shows. So there's
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: one that's like a throwback show. Basically it's a Real
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: house New York throwback or reboot or a legacy or
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: whatever it is that they're calling it. And then, um,
- 1:15:35Speaker 1: they're keeping their casting pretty low, so I mean they're
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: keeping the information on what they're casting is going to
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: be pretty trying to figure it out. Yeah, they didn't
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: watch Out, but I don't watch Trash. I don't watch
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: either one of them. But um, I mean I did
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: a couple episodes just for Ebony. But it should be
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: two shows and the other shows should be super diverse.
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: It should be one that really reflects the melting part
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: that New York City is, don't you think, Well, she
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: doesn't agree on like they wanted that that was the
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: main thing, right. She was the first ever black person
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: on Real Housewives of New York. New York is such
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: a diverse place, but apparently their bubble is not that
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: diverse now. They made everything about race. It wasn't a
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: normal show where you see women going out and doing
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: what they do. Every show was something about race. That
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: might be the editing because I'm sure they film was trash.
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: It was trash. It was the last season was trash. Now,
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: Ebbony kay Williams Els said only Sonia Morgan was willing
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: to come to the table and negotiate a future that
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: involved me as a part of this ensemble. So here's
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: what else she had to say about the season not
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: being fun. I feel very strongly that several of the
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: aspects of the traditional housewife experience, which you know all
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: too well because you helped your rapis, were absent from
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: my season. We're in a lockdown. It's New York, so
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: it's not the same as a lockdown and other parts
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: of the country. It was no dice, there was no
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: international trip, there was no glamor, there was no glitz.
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: So it just was lacking of the fun that house
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: Wives is known for. Him So is everything gonna be
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: on season the next season? Now looking like it, she said,
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: only one member was willing to come to the Oh.
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: I thought she was saying, there's two different shows and
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: she's gonna be one of them. She's not even gonna
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: be on the next season. She said her co stars
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: were unwilling to negotiate to keep her on the series.
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: They didn't want to even meet her halfway in that negotiation.
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: It didn't fit. They didn't fit that that whole show
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: you could just tell it was just thrown together. Though
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: a lot of times at least the women know each other,
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: but in New York it just was just it was
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: just an odd thing. Now, she also feels that she
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: was black balled. I'm gonna be real, were you black
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: balled by lou Anne Ramona Leah in terms of not
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: being able to come to the table they were unwilling
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: to Yes, if you want to call it black balled,
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: I'm not gonna you know, dispete the semantics of that, Carlos,
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: what I am telling you plainly, only Sonya Morgan was
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: willing to come to the table and negotiate a future
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: that involved me as a part of this ensemble period.
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: Dot Ilia was her friend on there. Yeah, I don't
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: think those were black balls. Those were white labies that
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: were blocking up Evan and Kay Williams from being on
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: because she came on as as Leah's friend. She wasn't
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: really his friend. They just said the friend, but they
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: didn't seem like they really knew each other. I don't
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: watch the show. I only watched it for every a
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: couple of times. Okay to Delia too, you know what
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: I mean. But I'm ribing whatevery, I'm ran with every
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: whatever she wants to do. I'm with it all right now.
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: Lee Daniels is saying that he was confused by what
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: happened with Jesse Small. Laddy did an interview with T. S. Madison,
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: as you know, and here's what he had to say.
- 1:18:33Speaker 1: Are you mad at him? I was? I was? I
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: was confused? So what happened? I don't you tell me?
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know either. I mean when
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: I tell you, I says it didn't happen. And so
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: I have to believe him that he believes that it
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: didn't happen, because that's the boy that I cast and
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: that's the boy that I love. And he was you,
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: he was you listen, he it's too fail. Did you
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: cry like a bit? What is Lee Daniel so funny?
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: To me? He? Man? Man, did you cry like a bitch?
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: I watched that like five times just today for no.

- 1:21:33Speaker 1: of our guests. I'm about to you gonna say this
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: is the first time that he actually met Angela. I
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: was starting to think that Angela Yee had something against me,
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: you know, all of my Breakfast club appearances. She has
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: been that way with Angela. Okay, perfect a pleasure to
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: meet you. Nice to meet you too. Now, also you
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: have Cash with you for people that don't know what's
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: his position. Well, Cash was my former aide who's now
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: is my Constituent Service Director and charge of special projects,
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: marijuana being one of them. Um. You know, young guy
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: who I'm extremely proud of, has grown so much and
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: that's what I wanted to do when I came in
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: the Mayor's office. I wanted to give younger people an
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: opportunity who normally wouldn't get that opportunity. So he's making
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: us all prout cast something. We call it cannabis. Cannabis
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: definitely New York. Yes, yes, so that what's going on
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: with Atlantic City? Now? You've been in office for us
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: for some time now, so what have you been doing.
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: What have the people of Atlantic City been seeing? Well? Well, listen,
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: first of all, um, you know, we stabilized the government.
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: As you know, when I first came on here, I
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: was just getting in, um, you know, taking over for
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: the former mayor covid Hit. We served the community well
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: and now things are stable and as you know, I
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: had seven elections in two years that'sn't heard of, and
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: and now the government stable, we're moving forward with our agenda.
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: Also little history in the family. My wife, January First,
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: became the first African American female superintendent in the history
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: of Atlantic City and crazy the first superintendent to actually
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: live in Atlantic City. So you know, we're extremely proud
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: about that. And you know we're just plugging away where
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: you know, offering more services, spending less money. My thing
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: is fiscal responsibility. For the third straight year, the good
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: people of Atlantic City is going to get a tax decrease.
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: We have a situation where I wanted to invest in
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: human capital. We got money from the American Rescue Plan.
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: We got thirty three million, We got the first sixteen
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: and a half million, and we wanted to spend it
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: on lost revenue, which we fixed a couple of bridges
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: in town. But also we wanted to give back to
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: our employees. We gave every city employee up to thirty
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: five hundred dollars as as as COVID pay, and we
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: did something that no other mayor has ever done. It
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: as to give back to the taxpayers and businesses. Currently,
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: now those taxpairs and businesses are getting five hundred dollars.
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: It's a lot, you know, considering that has never been done.
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: And one of the things I said when I got
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: in we wanted to rebuild City Hall from the inside out.
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: And we're changing the culture in city Hall and government
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: and throughout the city. And they're coming up on contract negotiations,
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: which we're wrapping up next week. And I'm just going
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: to say this that our employees have never seen a
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: contract like we're about to give up, like we're about
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: to give out. And I'm extremely proud of that. As mayor.
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: What do you mean what kind of contract? Their union contracts.
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: It expired at the end of December, and everyone except
- 1:24:36Speaker 1: for our fire department is up to share. They're up
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: next year. And you can't say that you believe in employees,
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: you believe in up with mobility, you believe in right
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: size and the salaries and government and when you get
- 1:24:49Speaker 1: a chance to do so, you don't act. So, you know,
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: we're extremely excited about that, and you know things are
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: looking up in the city. Being a kid and going
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: down to Atlantic City, wasn't that many black things to do?
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: The many urban events? Is that changing? Well? As I
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: said on the station when I first came on a
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: couple of years ago that I was going to change
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: the coachure in a way that we do things in
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: Atlantic City. And now, because of my relationships with promoters
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: across the country, my relationship with you, a lot of
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: people are considering Atlantic City that normally wouldn't consider doing
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: any type of business in Atlantic City. We had some
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: exciting things that's happening for the first time. We have
- 1:25:28Speaker 1: in June. I can't give the day or the location,
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: but Danye and Blanc is coming to Atlantic City. We
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: have Kevin Hart performing, We have Wilding Out you know,
- 1:25:39Speaker 1: we're working of course, we have dj MV Drive Your
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: Dreams car shows. We have twelve thousand or twelve thousand
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: people out there last yes, just to just to put
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: that in no incidents, no problems, no situations, family fun day.
- 1:25:49Speaker 1: This year. We haven't released the day ja, but yeah,
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: it's gonna be another big one. What else I'm sorry, Yes,
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: and I'm working with Live Nation. Be on the lookout
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: for this. We're working very hard for the first ever
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: and it's going to be an annual the Atlantic City
- 1:26:03Speaker 1: Urban Entertainment Festival. This is going to focus on women empowerment,
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: it's going to be a two day concert series um
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: at bull Walk Hall, and you know there's going to
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: be all type of parties and different promoters doing different things.
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: We're working on something for Beta Field on me More
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: You Day weekend. We're also working on a unique bike festival. UM.
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: You know, shout out to my guy Lenny the barber,
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: who's done a lot of things out here. We're trying
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: to put that play together. But um, we bike well,
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: you know, Lenny's a master promoter. Soleny, Lenny gets into anything.
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a little woman. Yeah. But but the
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: thing is, um, you know, we have options and you
- 1:26:49Speaker 1: know what they're saying, you ever have options and not
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: need them, to need options and not have them. So
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: we're definitely changing the culture there and we know that. Um,
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: that's a priority for us in the city. So we're
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: going to stay true to our Summertime slogan that we live,
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: we live we outside the cash. Now, for people that
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: want to get into cannabis industry in New Jersey, what
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: are the ways they can get into the industry right now?
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: The license process is open for the state of New Jersey.
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: The Summer Fifth Teams started cultivation, that's where you grow
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: the flower. March fifteenth, the application process opened up for retail,
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: so Atlantic City is going to be the East Coast
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: hub for cannabis, specifically targeting retail. So what you gotta
- 1:27:31Speaker 1: do right now is it's not easy. You know, out
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: of one hundred percent of cannabis businesses in the country,
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: less than three percent a minority own, so it's not
- 1:27:39Speaker 1: an easy task. I would say, do your due diligence,
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: stay on NJGUV Backslash Cannabis to get all the information
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: that you need, get you a right attorney, or get
- 1:27:49Speaker 1: you a right application right That's really what the name
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: of the game right now is application right in Because
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: it's on a point system. You want to make sure
- 1:27:55Speaker 1: you have every point to qualify. But Atlantic City is
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: open for business. Call up to city Hall, you know,
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: hit me on the Instagram, uh, send me an email.
- 1:28:04Speaker 1: We are doing everything in our power to continue to
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: get the support from people all over. We have every
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: top company calling in, every celebrity calling in. They want
- 1:28:15Speaker 1: to do business in Atlantic City and we wide open.
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: Were accepting all six license types. So you know the
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: type they say are people that's um affected by marijuana,
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: and we right right, there's six classes of license. Two types,
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: so it's micro that's where it's less than twenty five
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: square feet and less than ten employees. And this is
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: specifically for somebody who lives in that city or one
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: of the surrounded cities. The other one just a regular
- 1:28:40Speaker 1: class tier license where you know, it could be my
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: minority minority owned, or it could be all called Caucasian owned,
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: it could be anything. And that's just where it's not
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: specifically on social equity. So the first type of license
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: is cultivation, that's growing the flower. Second one is manufacturing
- 1:28:57Speaker 1: that's turning the flower into a product. Then it's distribution
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: and whole sell and that's where you store the product
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: and then transferred to the retail. Retail is the most
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: important for us. That's the storefronts you pick up the flower.
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: And lastly is delivery. That's one that's going to be
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: a sleeper because a lot of Jersey short towns around
- 1:29:15Speaker 1: us opted out Ocean City Summer's points. They saying, hey,
- 1:29:18Speaker 1: we don't want it here, but we can always start
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: our business Atlantic City and deliver anywhere in New Jersey.
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: So that's one that's gonna be real good. Right there
