Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It is the DL Hughley Show, your 2026 edition. If
- 0:03Speaker 1: you're going to be in Fort Lauderdale, I will be
- 0:05Speaker 1: there this Friday at the R. Rand Theater, along with
- 0:08Speaker 1: Don Lemon for the DL and DL tour. So make
- 0:12Speaker 1: sure you check that out. The following day, we'll be
- 0:14Speaker 1: in Orlando at the Walt Disney Theater. So the 12th
- 0:18Speaker 1: and the 13th, right? Did I get that right?
- 0:20Speaker 2: 11th and 12th. 11th and 12th. Not mistaken. So Friday
- 0:24Speaker 2: is the 11th. That is probably that is correct. Friday's
- 0:29Speaker 2: the 11th.
- 0:29Speaker 3: Right.
- 0:30Speaker 1: You see where they're trying not to let Mondami come
- 0:32Speaker 1: to the like that would that would. So if he
- 0:37Speaker 1: can't come, they don't want him to come.
- 0:39Speaker 2: Is that. Wait, come where?
- 0:41Speaker 4: To.
- 0:42Speaker 2: Well, he's the mayor of New York City. Yes, I know.
- 0:44Speaker 1: So, you know, what's funny is the perpetrators of 9-11
- 0:48Speaker 1: were there were, I think, 15 Saudis.
- 0:50Speaker 3: Right.
- 0:57Speaker 2: I think he's from Uganda, right? Yeah, I know he's
- 1:00Speaker 2: the African country.
- 1:02Speaker 1: Now, it's interesting that you don't want him to come
- 1:04Speaker 1: to 9-11, but the Trumps have no problem taking money
- 1:07Speaker 1: from Saudis.
- 1:09Speaker 2: They have no problem.
- 1:10Speaker 1: So is that to imply that no Muslim that lived
- 1:13Speaker 1: in New York should be able to go to commemorate 9-11?
- 1:17Speaker 1: Is it 2 billion people that we're saying should be
- 1:22Speaker 1: disqualified from going?
- 1:23Speaker 2: Or is it just him? I think it's just him.
- 1:26Speaker 2: How old is he? 30-something? I don't know how old
- 1:28Speaker 2: he is. Let's look and see.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Because that was 27 years ago. So he might have
- 1:32Speaker 1: been in his teens when that happened.
- 1:33Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:35Speaker 1: So the golfers have no problem taking sodding money for
- 1:38Speaker 1: live golf, right?
- 1:40Speaker 2: Not at all. Oh, yeah. Absolutely not. They have no problem.
- 1:44Speaker 2: He's 34 years old.
- 1:44Speaker 1: He's 34 years old now. So that was 21 years ago.
- 1:46Speaker 2: He was 13 years ago.
- 1:47Speaker 1: He's 13 years old. He's 13. So, and obviously what
- 1:53Speaker 1: is happening now is that it's not working. Did you
- 1:55Speaker 1: see that girl that killed her kids, right?
- 1:58Speaker 2: Yep. Yeah, we've been talking about it. Lindsay Clancy. Lindsay,
- 2:00Speaker 2: what's her name? Clancy.
- 2:02Speaker 1: So, you know, it wasn't just her. It was a
- 2:05Speaker 1: young girl. Casey Anthony killed her kid too, right? Yep.
- 2:08Speaker 1: I think that it's, I have no doubt that she
- 2:13Speaker 1: suffered from something. But I don't think those kids should
- 2:16Speaker 1: be dead. And I don't think she should be running
- 2:18Speaker 1: around free. I don't think you should get to kill
- 2:20Speaker 1: your kids by having an emotional breakdown.
- 2:24Speaker 2: I totally agree with you on that one.
- 2:25Speaker 1: And I think that a lot of white women, like
- 2:27Speaker 1: white women, a lot of white women, I should say,
- 2:31Speaker 1: don't feel like a woman who killed her kids should
- 2:33Speaker 1: be in jail. And a lot of white women feel
- 2:36Speaker 1: like a man who molested kids should be president. Yeah.
- 2:39Speaker 2: That's the interesting thing.
- 2:41Speaker 1: This is Dylan Roof killed, excuse me, Rittenhouse killed those people.
- 2:45Speaker 1: They can always justify it when it is seen from
- 2:48Speaker 1: their perspective. That's monstrous to have killed these kids.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Very much so.
- 2:52Speaker 1: And they cannot act as if they are monsters. I
- 2:54Speaker 1: don't think that black woman who, I don't think she
- 2:57Speaker 1: should have been acquitted. And I don't think, I don't know, she,
- 3:00Speaker 1: you know, I think that. The other day, children are
- 3:04Speaker 1: dead and somebody needs to.
- 3:05Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing. Now, the latest is her attorneys
- 3:08Speaker 2: are asking Trump for.
- 3:10Speaker 1: A part, which is stupid because it's a state case.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Her attorney is an idiot if he think that. And,
- 3:16Speaker 1: you know, if Trump if Trump will, if she can
- 3:19Speaker 1: murder kids, he molests them. It's the same thing.
- 3:21Speaker 2: It's the same thing.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Sometimes people get really upset with the things I say.
- 3:23Speaker 1: So we're giving them an opportunity to express themselves with
- 3:25Speaker 1: our segment called F.U.D.L.U.
- 3:27Speaker 2: Glee. So why don't you please welcome our F.U.D.L. Hughley correspondent,
- 3:30Speaker 2: Little Niecy James. Hello, this is Niecy James, your F.U.D.L.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Hughley correspondent. Our first F.U.D.L. Hughley comment comes from Facebook.
- 3:40Speaker 3: Tommy from Cosmic Energy says, D.L., I know you remember me.
- 3:44Speaker 3: I was the leader of the singing group, Cosmic Energy.
- 3:47Speaker 3: We were a really good group with the potential of
- 3:49Speaker 3: being stars. That was until you came along.
- 3:53Speaker 2: You told us we could sing.
- 3:54Speaker 3: We let you sing lead at the school talent show,
- 3:57Speaker 3: and you were so awful that we got booed off
- 3:59Speaker 3: the stage.
- 3:59Speaker 2: It was so bad. The group never recovered.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Me and the other members of the group had real
- 4:05Speaker 3: dreams and ambitions for making it big. You ruined it
- 4:08Speaker 3: for us, and you destroyed our future. It may have
- 4:10Speaker 3: been a big joke to you, but it was devastating
- 4:12Speaker 3: to us.
- 4:13Speaker 5: F * * *!
- 4:14Speaker 2: F * * * you, D.A.
- 4:14Speaker 4: Hughley.
- 4:15Speaker 3: Our next F.E.
- 4:16Speaker 1: D.A.
- 4:16Speaker 3: Hughley comment is from the D.A.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Hughley Show website.
- 4:20Speaker 3: She's Strong 67 says, D.L., why is it every time
- 4:23Speaker 3: Jasmine starts to win an argument against you, you shout
- 4:26Speaker 3: her down saying, when she gets a show, she can
- 4:28Speaker 3: talk about that? Are you afraid an educated woman is
- 4:31Speaker 3: smarter than you? Does it frighten you that she may
- 4:34Speaker 3: show you up on your own radio show? D.L., you
- 4:37Speaker 3: are an extremely small man. Not just in stature, but
- 4:40Speaker 3: in your mentality, too.
- 4:41Speaker 4: F * * *!
- 4:48Speaker 5: Hey, D.L. Hughley, this is Leon Bridges, you know, R &
- 4:50Speaker 5: B singer. I've been a fan since Kings of Comedy.
- 4:53Speaker 5: I remember when you did Comic View, man. I tried
- 4:55Speaker 5: to go to your show, and it was sold out.
- 4:57Speaker 5: You know, I figured I'm in the biz. We both entertainers.
- 4:59Speaker 5: So I sent word. I said, tell them Leon Bridges
- 5:01Speaker 5: is here. And they sent word back, talking about, you
- 5:03Speaker 5: don't know me. But you about to know me. I'm
- 5:05Speaker 5: blowing up on the charts right now. I'm about to
- 5:07Speaker 5: be everywhere. So, D.L., you treating a new artist like this,
- 5:09Speaker 5: I'm going to say, fuck you, D.L.
- 5:11Speaker 4: Hughley.
- 5:12Speaker 2: We're out there for this week.
- 5:13Speaker 3: This has been Niecy James, your F.U.D.H.U.L.E.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Correspondent. And until next week, bye.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Now time for our human being of the week. Jasmine,
- 5:23Speaker 1: somebody's out there being human. Who the hell is it?
- 5:25Speaker 2: You won't believe it when I tell you, but you better.
- 5:27Speaker 2: The founders of Panda Express. Did they give an extra
- 5:32Speaker 2: soy sauce? No. I saw. They did not. They did
- 5:35Speaker 2: not charge extra. But you know what they do? They're
- 5:37Speaker 2: helping their employees become homeowners.
- 5:39Speaker 5: What?
- 5:40Speaker 2: Yep. Now, they built a $ 7 billion empire because, of course,
- 5:44Speaker 2: a lot of people like Panda Express, including myself. I
- 5:47Speaker 2: just found a love for it all of a sudden
- 5:49Speaker 2: after all these years. But it's everywhere. Yeah. And they
- 5:51Speaker 2: felt like in the mall. No, it's also an airport.
- 5:54Speaker 2: They have standalone places. There's a lot of standalones, actually.
- 5:59Speaker 2: They got rich by charging. They employ over fifty five
- 6:02Speaker 2: thousand people. So here's the thing. They have twenty five
- 6:05Speaker 2: hundred locations across forty nine states and also in twelve countries. So, yeah,
- 6:10Speaker 2: it's in a lot of places. But anyway, I think
- 6:13Speaker 2: that the important thing is that they're taking their wealth
- 6:15Speaker 2: because they realize that homeownership is not. It's a major
- 6:18Speaker 2: milestone for most people, but most people don't get the
- 6:20Speaker 2: opportunity to do it. So what they are doing is
- 6:22Speaker 2: they are helping their employees become homeowners by investing in them.
- 6:26Speaker 2: I think that's dope. Yeah. This home bought to you
- 6:28Speaker 2: by MSG. I don't care who it's bought by. I'll
- 6:30Speaker 2: take it. That's pretty awesome. That's pretty awesome. Yes, I
- 6:34Speaker 2: think so. Panda Express. Yeah. The owners of Panda Express. Yeah.
- 6:39Speaker 2: So that would be Peggy Cherng and Andrew Cherng.
- 6:45Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:45Speaker 2: I think that's their names. I know it's Peggy and Andrew.
- 6:48Speaker 2: I know that. That ain't their real name. The last name,
- 6:49Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be disrespectful. That ain't their real name.
- 6:52Speaker 2: Of course not. Those are the names they have.
- 6:54Speaker 1: You know, just like, I hate to mention it, tell
- 6:57Speaker 1: you this, but Shirley is not your manicure's name either.
- 7:00Speaker 2: It's not? Shirley, not Shirley? Let's not mess with that.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Stacey's not her name either. I'm just telling you. Don't
- 7:07Speaker 2: blow it for her. What about Kathy? Kathy, you're not Kathy?
- 7:10Speaker 2: What are their names? Peggy and Andrew. Peggy and Andrew.
- 7:13Speaker 1: They have From Taiwan and Japan. Taiwan and Japan. We
- 7:17Speaker 1: got the Pacific Rim cover.
- 7:19Speaker 2: Yes, we do. So to Peggy and what's his name again? Andrew.
- 7:23Speaker 1: Andrew have helped some of their 55,000 boys usher in
- 7:28Speaker 1: a new home.
- 7:29Speaker 2: Yes, they did. For that, we're going to give them
- 7:31Speaker 2: their human beings of the week. We're going to give
- 7:32Speaker 2: them the claps. That's it. I saw, I saw.
- 7:35Speaker 1: Someone, sometimes it doesn't take long to know if you're
- 7:38Speaker 1: with the wrong person. We're going to explain on my
- 7:39Speaker 1: top five. That's up in less than 15 minutes. Now
- 7:41Speaker 1: it's time for what you need to know with one
- 7:43Speaker 1: and only Sybil Wilkes.
- 7:45Speaker 4: It's Sybil Wilkes with what we need to know. Federal
- 7:48Speaker 4: investigators with the NTSB recovered the flight recorders from Sunday's
- 7:52Speaker 4: cargo plane crash at the Miami International Airport, where an
- 7:56Speaker 4: Amazon Boeing 767 overran the runway, killing five people and
- 8:00Speaker 4: injuring five others. In New York, former New York Mayor
- 8:04Speaker 4: Rudy Giuliani is urging the current mayor, Zoran Mandani, to
- 8:07Speaker 4: skip Friday's 9-11 ceremony, while Mandani defended his attendance as
- 8:12Speaker 4: a petition opposing his appearance gathered over 100,000 signatures. The
- 8:17Speaker 4: AI music platform Suno is pulling an ad campaign featuring
