• 0:00
  Speaker 1: It's topic times the phone call eight hundred five eight
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: five one oh five, want to join it to the
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: discussion with the Breakfast Club talk about It morning, Everybody's
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: DJ and V show. I mean the guy we are
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: at Breakfast Club. We got our co host Carry Champion
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: joining us right now. You don't have to do it,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: hit fools? Care now if if you just joined us.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: We were talking about what Don Lemon said yesterday on CNN,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: this violent statement he told viv I mean, he didn't
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: give a damn about any woman when he made these comments.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Let's hear. Oh talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: think that I think it's the wrong road to go down.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: She says. People, you know, politicians are something and not
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: in their prime. NICKI Haley isn't in their prime? Sorry.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: When a woman is considered being her prime in our
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: twenties and thirties and maybe forties twenty topically, that's not,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: according to me, prime what it depends. I mean, it's
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: just like prime. If you look it up, it'll say
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: if you look at you Google, when is a woman
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: in her prime? It'll say twenties, thirties and forties. I
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: don't know forties. I didn't agree with that, So I
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: think she has to be careful about saying that. You know,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: politicians aren't in there, probably need to get qualifier. You're
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: talking about prime for like child him carrying or are
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: you talking facts? Are google it? So we're asking eight
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: hundred five eight five one oh five one, what are
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: your thoughts? Let's start with the OG carry champion. You
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: know what I think I think that was. I think
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: it was silly. Look I know Don and and and
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: know him well enough to text and talk to him
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and oftentimes, maybe not even often. Twice I've sent him
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: in Texas said why did you say that? What it's
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: wrong with you? Whatever he has said in the past,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: I have said, don you can't say that. He's like,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: you know what, my bad or I'm sorry, I didn't
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: mean it. I think a lot of times, when you're
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: trying to be provocative, especially in our world, which is
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: which has changed the game that we live in, it's
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: all about going viral and making statements and being relevant,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and you get caught up. I don't necessarily think he
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: was one percent trying to insult all of women, but
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: he did, like and it's it's not fair, it's not
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: fair for us because we always are limited. You guys
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: get better as you get older, and women are done
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: at a certain age. And if men were honest, I'm like, yeah,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that's too old for me. Like age appropriate, men are
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: rarely dating age appropriate if they're dating rarely, you know
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: what I mean. I take what you said. I also
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: think we live in these world of extremes where everybody
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: is on the side, especially when it comes to politics.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Soon Don is liberal, He's a Democrat. Nicky Harley is
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Republican conservative. So instead of like him, looking at what
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: she said, because what she said is, hey, I think
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: anybody over the age of seventy five should have to
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: have a mental competency test to run for, you know,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: president of a hold to be president of the United
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: States of America. And by the way, there's nothing wrong
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: with there's nothing wrong with that. But he can't he
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: can't say that because he's so beholden to Democrats. He's
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: so in love with the Liberals, he's so in love
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: with President Joe Biden, so he don't even want to
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: seem like he's on the side of Nicky Harley, which
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I think is extremely well. I don't think he's so
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: in love with Perhaps he is, but I think he
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: was just trying to make a point that what he
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: said was what she said wasn't fair. But she was
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: absolutely within the round of possibility, like after seventy five
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: years old, you most definitely even to me, that's ridiculous
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: because a woman could never be president at eighty years old, exactly.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: They would never put an eight year or a woman
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: in the White House. And Trump is over seventy five two.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: So her saying that wasn't just a shot at President Biden.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: It was a shot at a former president Trump as well.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: But he can't even have a real nuanced conversation about
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: what she's saying because she's on the other side. If
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: a Democrat would have said that, he would have went
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: up there and he wouldn't even have talked about, you know, Carrie,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: not being in our prime, but not for nothing, that's
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: my ass. I'm in my prime, but not for nothing.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: I think you take your past politics. I think you
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: should do it for your license. I think you didn't
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: do it. Oh don't know. I thought I thought you had.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: They don't know. They don't. And it's interesting that you
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: say this because my grandmother I got mad at me
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: because I told her she couldn't drive. It was years ago.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: You can't drive anymore. You just don't have the same
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: reflex as you're not supposed to be driving. And they
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: don't make them retake the task and they should. Absolutely, Yes,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: there is a past your prime. Let's go to the
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: phone lines. Hello is this day? What's up? Brother? Talk
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: to us? What was your thoughts on down Lemon statements.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I don't agree with the way he said it, but
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I do agree with them. But I think I think, well,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: this is what I mean by that. I think that
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: when it comes to the state market value, older women
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: don't hold as much dating market value, not saying that
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: they're not in their prime or they're not valuable as people.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: So when it comes to the dating market, yeah, they
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: don't hold as much a date market value. I'm gonna
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: tell you when I'm gonna when man may comments like that,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: they tell me they ain't got no eyes, because, bro,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: if you look around right now, the old g's are
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: killing these young girls every day. I mean, Angela Bassett,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: me and Long, Jennifer Lopez, Patty Laba. I'm not saying
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: that those are not beautiful women, do That's not what
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. When I'm saying that they are still valuable,
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: they are still beautiful women. I'm saying when it comes
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: to day market value, most meted are still going to
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: prefer a younger woman. That's just that's just biological wire.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: That's how we are, and that's true. Well, I tell
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: you one thing. Somebodyse man man like Diddy, did he
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: need to be with a woman that can identify the
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: signs of a stroke? Shut up? Hello, who's this? My
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: name's I used to Hey, I U should come on
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: and talk to us. What do you think about Don
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Lemon's comments? So, I find it interesting that it seems
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: that men are always expressing some sort of imaginary standard
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: for women, like a blanket standard. You have to be
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: this tall, you have to be this body type. And
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: it's like women aren't cars. We don't Our value is
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: not based on some made up metrics. You know, women
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: are people. And I find it interesting that the age
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: range women in our forties. You know, I'm in my thirties.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: But the older you get to hire your sex drive,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the more financially stable you are, the more comfortable you
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: are in your body. And I feel like the more
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: weight games, hair loss. It's like you're declining, sir, not
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: sing sir. That a man who likes men if comments
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: want anything about women? Whoa? Whoa do anyway? WHOA? But
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: do you think there's something to that? I think it is.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: And I think the men, the red tiled men, men
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: who alma got something to say about women? They don't
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: like women for real. That's a whole other topic. I
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: think that that alpha male, that alpha male, alpha male
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Twitter is ridiculous, alpham mal Twitter is a shame. I look,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I agree with her. I think, well, two things. One,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Don does say things that are are that are very
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: traditionally not someone who has ever been with a woman
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: or dating women in that way. I agree with that,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: like because I said, I'll say, Don, that's not that's
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: not normal. Literally, I remember we have this conversation. Me
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: and my girlfriends were talking. I agree with this caller.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Me and my girlfriends were talking. There is a metric
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: for women, like there's just imaginary metric. You guys, might
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: you are more evolved, you are the you're outside of
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the norm in the sense of how men feel a women,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: but they do like, oh I like her, but she's
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: to this or she's to that like the littlest things,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: and we get we get judged, and especially if you're
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: a black woman, you get judged at such a different rate.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: And I think, don listen. He tried to walk it
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: back what he was trying to do. I think, Morris,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: is what you were saying. He was trying to agree
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: with the Democrats period, not so much in the way
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: that he hated Nikki Haley, but in a way that
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: he was like, she doesn't know what she's saying. Yeah,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: but it's hard for us. It's literally hard for us.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: And I don't want to get into whether or not
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: he's had her sexual or he's gay, and that matters,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: but he does sound like a man who hasn't been
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: around a fine ass black woman like you think reality
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: you think sometimes like gay men step bout of that
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: lane and forget you still are for sure, So you
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: can't comment on woman for sure for sure all the time.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: You shouldn't be saying like, come on, we can't say
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: a woman's out of her prime. And she had a point,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: but I don't want to I don't want to hold
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: don too that he just says things like that all
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: the time. But let's let's take some more calls to
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: do it. When we come back eight hundred five eight five,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: one oh five one. We're talking about Don Lemon's comments.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Have you heard him? Let's play a clip right fast. Oh,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I think that I
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: think it's the wrong road to go down. She says. People,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: you know, politicians are something I'm not in their prime?
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: NICKI Haley isn't in their prime? Sorry. When a woman
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: is considered being her prime in her twenties and thirties
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: and maybe forties, that's not, according to me, prime for
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: what it depends. I mean, it's just like prime. If
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: you look it up, it'll say if you look, if
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: you google when is a woman in her prime? It'll
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: say twenties, thirties and forties. I don't necessary I agree
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: with that. So I think she has to be careful
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: about saying that. You know, politicians aren't in their problems?
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: You can qualified. Are you're talking about prime for like child?
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Are you talking about effects? Are google it? We'll take
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: it calls when we come back as the Breakfast Club,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: the morning you opinion to the Breakfast Club type fad
• 8:58

  Speaker 1: we are to Breakfast Club. We got our co host
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Carrie Champion joining us, and we're talking about these comments
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: that Don Lemon said on CNN. Let's listen. Oh talk
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: about age makes me uncomfortable. I think that I think
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: it's a wrong road to go down. She says, people,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: you know, politicians are something and not in their prime.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Nicki Haley isn't in her prime. Sorry, when a woman
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: is considered being her prime in our twenties and thirties
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: and maybe forty twenty, that's not, according to me, prime
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: for what it depends on. It's just like prime. If
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: you look it up, it'll say if you look, if
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: you google, when is a woman in her prime? It'll
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: say twenties, thirties and forties. I don't know forties. I
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: agree with that. So I think she has to be
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: careful about saying that, you know, politicians aren't in their problem.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: We need to qualifier. You're talking about prime for like
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: child and carrying? Are you talking about that's drum? Facts?
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Are google it? So we're asking eight on June five, five,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: one oh five one, what are your thoughts? We have
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Noel on a line. Noel Good morning, Good morning. How
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: you feeling this morning? I'm feeling last and then I'm
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: a Trinidadian and a Trinidad's partible. I'm so, what did
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: you think about Don lemons comments? I think that Don
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Lemon should not be speaking on women because you don't
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: believe it's like women. You have to really understand physically
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: and mentally what a woman does before you can even
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: talk about it. And you know, like he's trying to
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: get cloud but it's like, you don't even really like us,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: So why are you speaking to us. You don't even
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: know what a woman is in her prime and what
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: you can do in her prime. I'm in my prime
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: any age that I am. That's true, that's more than
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: the physical. But you know what, you don't really like women.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: So I need you to stop saying that because you
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: don't even understand us. Number one, and Don saying that,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: you know that wasn't his personal take, but you shouldn't
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: repeat a take that's not yours like it's yours. You can't.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: You can't make this statement and didn't say but that's
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: not my person I think, no, no, no, no, don't
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: work like that. Yeah, but that's why they call hair
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: saying court. You know, like you saying court. They don't
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: do that, So he needs to stop. And I'm like,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: I'm in the ahl. Just time becomes fine as there's
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: a bunch of women in their primes that we could
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: have a full circle with them and we could talk
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: about women in their prime. That's what you do. You
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: don't go around and talk about all that set willy nilly.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: It's insipid. Okay, thank you, mama. And I feel like
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: you know, I dare not men men all believe this,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. You guys are referring to
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: whether or not she's referring to whether he's said whether
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: he likes women or not. Couldn't believe this, whether they
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: like women or not. Not all men, not all men.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: But I have been around head of sexual men who
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: believe that after you hit a certain age, you're not
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: in your prime and that and and literally steadfast about it.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: And so I don't think it has anything to do
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: with a sexuality. Yeah we can harp on that, but
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: he just is. It's a man thing. It's toxic masculinity,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: it is the patriarchy, it's all the things in which
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: we have been taught in this country, Don is repeating
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: all the subliminally, whether he realizes or right, that's what
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: he's repeating. Okay, you know what's going on is from Brooking,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Good morning every one. Yeah, yeah, I really don't agree
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: with you grew up like that though, anyone from a
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: you know, especially you're a certain type of culture. You
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: grew up in the fact that the women kind of
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: expire certain things at a certain age, or if they're
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: not married but at a certain age, are not another doctor,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't understand what a woman prime is.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: I know a lot of women twenty thirty, forty fifty,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: they're looking for great Yeah, I mean you know what, man,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Primes are changing every day because there's certain people that's
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: making you realize, like, damn, you can keep going angel
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Bath in our sixties. Bro Now, why associating prime with
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: what you look like? Because do you see the physical
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: connotation here? You guys are keep saying she fine because
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: she's sixty, She fine because she We don't say that
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: about it. Man, he fined for sixty, he fined for fifty,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: he fined for forty. Why are we associating what you
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: look like as your prime? Right? But then men I
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: look like that too, But I think because a lot
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: of times your external is a reflection of your internal.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: So if you've been doing what you're supposed to do
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: as far as you know your physical fitness, as far
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: as your mental fitness, your emotional fitness, it will reflect
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: on your outside. So I think that's the reason why.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: What's the more the story? Guys, what's the moral? The
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: moral of the story is the prime for me, it
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: could be anything. It could be. It could be all
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: encompassing mental physical success. That's prime. People don't hit their prime.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Men and women don't hit their prime to their forties
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: maybe fifties, in terms of really getting to the place
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: where you're having some financial success hardworking folks. I'm not
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: talking about an entertainer or somebody who does something differently.
• 13:25
