- 1:33Speaker 10: Oh, God.
- 1:33Speaker 3: I put air in my own tires, like. Thank you.
- 1:37Speaker 4: What is the point of being married to a Mexican
- 1:39Speaker 4: man if you got to put air in your own tires?
- 1:40Speaker 3: He's not here.
- 1:41Speaker 8: Yo.
- 1:42Speaker 3: Shut up. What's the point of being married to any man?
- 1:44Speaker 5: Shut up.
- 1:45Speaker 3: It's not even the fact that he's Mexican.
- 1:46Speaker 6: Yes, it is.
- 1:46Speaker 3: But my husband is on the road. He's not here. But, like, yo,
- 1:49Speaker 3: I felt so good. I felt so good to do
- 1:52Speaker 3: that because I never did that before. I've never even
- 1:53Speaker 3: seen it done because I'm so used.
- 1:55Speaker 4: To my husband doing it. How did you know you
- 1:56Speaker 4: needed air in it?
- 1:57Speaker 3: Because my tire pressure came up.
- 1:59Speaker 11: Yep.
- 2:00Speaker 3: And two of my tires needed air. So I did it, y'all.
- 2:04Speaker 4: No dropping the clues, boss.
- 2:05Speaker 2: You got through.
- 2:05Speaker 4: Yes.
- 2:06Speaker 3: Where'd you go to do it? You went to the
- 2:07Speaker 3: gas station? No, I don't know what the name of
- 2:09Speaker 3: this gas station is, but I went to go get
- 2:12Speaker 3: the quarters. Put the quarters in the machine. See, Wawa be,
- 2:14Speaker 3: it be, well, I don't know about here, but normally
- 2:17Speaker 3: it's free at Wawa.
- 2:18Speaker 12: Damn.
- 2:19Speaker 4: Yeah, but you still gotta do it.
- 2:20Speaker 3: Yeah, but she went to go get quarters. I was
- 2:22Speaker 3: just saying it could've been for free. I felt real
- 2:24Speaker 3: good about that. I know that's right, girl.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Well, congratulations. That means that Chris gonna build you a
- 2:28Speaker 1: car now. He's not gonna be happy about you having
- 2:30Speaker 1: to do anything for yourself.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Anyway, who we got joining the show?
- 2:33Speaker 1: Man, E-40, who has dropped the first quadruple album in hip-hop,
- 2:38Speaker 1: Turning My Money Over. He'll be joining us this morning.
- 2:41Speaker 1: The album will be out tomorrow, so... You know, we
- 2:43Speaker 1: get to kick it with the icon living E-40 this morning.
- 2:46Speaker 4: We try to keep up.
- 2:47Speaker 3: With Chris Brown because, you know, he got 45 tracks
- 2:49Speaker 3: on each album.
- 2:50Speaker 4: He don't call it a quadruple, though. No, he don't.
- 2:51Speaker 4: But Chris Brown's also R & B. Well, yeah.
- 2:53Speaker 3: But I'm just like, I ain't never seen nobody else
- 2:55Speaker 3: have 40 songs, 40 plus songs on an album.
- 2:58Speaker 4: Yeah, me neither.
- 2:59Speaker 13: E-40.
- 2:59Speaker 4: I don't know how we're going to get through all
- 3:00Speaker 4: of that.
- 3:00Speaker 3: Music for the rest of the summer.
- 3:01Speaker 7: Yes.
- 3:02Speaker 1: We're going to talk to E-40 this morning. And, you know,
- 3:03Speaker 1: the other night I told y'all, I think I told y'all,
- 3:05Speaker 1: I went to go see Masego.
- 3:07Speaker 14: Yes.
- 3:08Speaker 1: And nothing will make you feel more out of the
- 3:10Speaker 1: loop than going to a Masego concert.
- 3:12Speaker 3: What do you mean?
- 3:12Speaker 1: Because there is no reason that Masego is not a
- 3:15Speaker 1: black radio staple. Masego should be playing every hour on hour.
- 3:19Speaker 1: Like y'all play all this other stuff.
- 3:20Speaker 4: The same way that like.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Trey Songz dominated black radio at one point and Chris
- 3:25Speaker 1: Brown dominates it. Like Masego should be doing that right now. And,
- 3:27Speaker 1: you know, Nyla put me on the Masego. About a
- 3:30Speaker 1: year ago. I didn't even realize that was him who
- 3:31Speaker 1: sang to that.
- 3:32Speaker 3: Yes, sir.
- 3:32Speaker 1: And so he sold out Radio City Music Hall here
- 3:35Speaker 1: in New York on Tuesday night.
- 3:36Speaker 4: So I went out on a school night to go
- 3:37Speaker 4: see him. That boy is incredible.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Yes, he is.
- 3:40Speaker 1: I mean, he plays the saxophone. He plays the keyboard.
- 3:42Speaker 1: He was playing the guitar. He's just phenomenal. So let's
- 3:45Speaker 1: get some Masego on this morning. Is this the joint
- 3:47Speaker 1: with Boo Jubantin?
- 3:49Speaker 4: Yes.
- 3:49Speaker 1: It's called Hello. It's Masego right here on The Breakfast Club.
- 3:53Speaker 7: Hello.
- 3:53Speaker 4: Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
- 3:55Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. Envy's on vacation,
- 3:58Speaker 1: but Lauren LaRosa is here. That was Masego.
- 4:01Speaker 4: The vibes, man.
- 4:02Speaker 1: The name of that record is Hello, featuring Buju Bantan.
- 4:04Speaker 1: I'm telling you, when he performed that the other night
- 4:06Speaker 1: in Radio City.
- 4:07Speaker 3: It went up.
- 4:07Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
- 4:08Speaker 15: Crazy.
- 4:09Speaker 1: I'm telling you, nothing make you feel more out of touch,
- 4:10Speaker 1: because it's like 6,000 people in that building in Radio
- 4:13Speaker 1: City the other night. Everybody's singing every single Masego song
- 4:16Speaker 1: word for word.
- 4:17Speaker 3: That's wild.
- 4:17Speaker 1: And I'm sitting there thinking, like, why is this man not...
- 4:20Speaker 1: And heavy rotation.
- 4:21Speaker 3: More famous and more like just mainstream.
- 4:23Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right. He's huge, though.
- 4:26Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah.
- 4:27Speaker 4: The radio's not doing their job.
- 4:28Speaker 3: Everybody need to know about Masego.
- 4:30Speaker 14: Man.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Mimi Brown, it's time for Front Page News with Tamisha
- 4:34Speaker 1: Brown from Howard University.
- 4:35Speaker 4: Good morning, Mimi.
- 4:36Speaker 3: Hold on, wait, wait, wait.
- 4:36Speaker 2: The sports.
- 4:37Speaker 3: All right, so the sports real quick.
- 4:38Speaker 4: The sports.
- 4:39Speaker 3: The NFL is eliminating the Pro Bowl games, y'all.
- 4:42Speaker 4: You don't even know what that is because it's not games.
- 4:45Speaker 14: It is.
- 4:45Speaker 2: Pro Bowl games.
- 4:46Speaker 3: It's not games. That's what they wrote. Instead, shifting the
- 4:49Speaker 3: focus to celebrating the honor of being a Pro Bowl selection.
- 4:53Speaker 4: I ain't never watched a Pro Bowl in my life.
- 4:54Speaker 3: Yes, y'all.
- 4:56Speaker 4: Not even a little bit. Mimi Brown from Howard University,
- 4:59Speaker 4: Front Page News.
- 4:59Speaker 2: What's happening?
- 5:01Speaker 11: Good morning, guys. How y'all doing this morning?
- 5:03Speaker 4: Good.
- 5:05Speaker 11: Good morning.
- 5:06Speaker 14: So we start this morning with another twist in the
- 5:08Speaker 14: fight over mail-in voting. A federal judge has now cleared
- 5:12Speaker 14: the way for the Trump administration to move forward with
- 5:15Speaker 14: one of the most controversial parts of its plan to
- 5:18Speaker 14: change how mail-in ballots are handled. But almost immediately after
- 5:22Speaker 14: this ruling came down yesterday, more than 20 states went
- 5:25Speaker 14: back to court trying to stop it.
- 5:26Speaker 11: So this time they are suing the U.S. Postal Service.
- 5:30Speaker 14: California Attorney General Rob Bonta is one of the attorney
- 5:34Speaker 14: generals that is suing them.
- 5:35Speaker 11: Let's listen to what he had to say.
- 5:37Speaker 13: President Trump doesn't get to rewrite our voting system on
- 5:41Speaker 13: a whim. And the United States Postal Service cannot sidestep
- 5:45Speaker 13: the laws that govern the Postal Service just to carry
- 5:48Speaker 13: out the president's agenda.
- 5:51Speaker 11: So here's what all of this means.
- 5:54Speaker 14: The judge's ruling means that the Postal Service could eventually
- 5:57Speaker 14: be allowed to withhold mail-in ballots from Americans whose name
- 6:01Speaker 14: are not on a government-approved voter list. Now, this comes
- 6:04Speaker 14: just days after the Supreme Court cleared the way for
- 6:07Speaker 14: the Trump administration to move forward for now, saying states
- 6:10Speaker 14: challenged the president's plan too early. So that means the
- 6:13Speaker 14: Postal Service can start putting those new mail-in rules in place.
- 6:18Speaker 14: But this new law, this new lawsuit that they did,
- 6:21Speaker 14: it takes a different approach. So instead of challenging the
- 6:23Speaker 14: president's order, the states are now suing and challenging the
- 6:27Speaker 14: Postal Service rules for carrying it out. So here's a
- 6:31Speaker 14: legal expert. His name is Justin Leavitt breaking down how
- 6:35Speaker 14: this would actually work.
- 6:36Speaker 16: The Postal Service is proposing a nationwide brand new IT project.
- 6:42Speaker 16: where states and local jurisdictions send them lists and they
- 6:46Speaker 16: collate the list and they get it out to their personnel.
- 6:48Speaker 16: This has never been built and never been tested. And
- 6:51Speaker 16: they're building a nationwide IT project or proposing to do
- 6:54Speaker 16: so in the next three weeks, which is lunacy.
- 6:59Speaker 1: Yeah, you said they challenged the president's order too early.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Like it's never too early to protect democracy and protect
- 7:06Speaker 1: our right to a free and fair election.
- 7:08Speaker 4: Like, what are we talking about?
- 7:09Speaker 1: Like, I really hate how everything they are doing you know,
- 7:12Speaker 1: to potentially undermine the midterms is a CB story at
- 7:16Speaker 1: best on so many platforms.
- 7:18Speaker 4: That's why I'm glad, you know, you highlight this often, Mimi.
- 7:21Speaker 11: Yes, because it's so important.
- 7:23Speaker 14: And also Attorney General Letitia James, who was helping lead
- 7:26Speaker 14: this lawsuit, she released a statement saying, in part, states
- 7:29Speaker 14: across the country, they are already knee-deep in preparing for
- 7:33Speaker 14: the November election. And changing the rules now would create
- 7:36Speaker 14: confusion just weeks.
- 7:38Speaker 11: Before the ballots start going out.
- 7:40Speaker 4: But you know that's what they want. Confusion is exactly
- 7:43Speaker 4: what they want.
- 7:44Speaker 11: That is exactly what they want.
- 7:46Speaker 14: And even the military, their ballots are supposed to go
- 7:49Speaker 14: out as early as next week. So how all of
- 7:52Speaker 14: this will be implemented, what's going to happen, you know,
- 7:55Speaker 14: is still so, so, so very confusing. And so these
- 7:58Speaker 14: state's attorney generals, they are fighting this in court, and
- 8:01Speaker 14: we will continue to watch the outcome of all of this.
- 8:05Speaker 14: And we've been telling you about the USS Abraham Lincoln,
- 8:08Speaker 14: which is now on its way back to San Diego
- 8:10Speaker 14: after roughly nine months of being deployed. So for anyone
- 8:13Speaker 14: who hasn't been following the story, sailors and their families
- 8:16Speaker 14: have described food and water shortages. They say food is
- 8:21Speaker 14: being rationed. They've gone long stretches without basic supplies. And
- 8:26Speaker 14: there's a growing mental health just concerns on the board,
- 8:31Speaker 14: on the ship.
- 8:31Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
- 8:32Speaker 14: So President Trump, he's been downplaying those concerns. Well, this
- 8:35Speaker 14: morning we're learning the Navy is trying to discipline a
- 8:38Speaker 14: 19-year-old sailor after what his wife says was a suicide attempt.
- 8:42Speaker 14: So we talked about this kind of last week when
- 8:44Speaker 14: the sailor went overboard.
- 8:45Speaker 11: I don't know if you guys remember that.
- 8:46Speaker 3: I didn't know he was 19.
- 8:49Speaker 14: Yeah, he's 19. So the Navy is now accusing him
- 8:53Speaker 14: of malingering, meaning intentionally hurting himself to get out of duty.
- 8:58Speaker 14: He's also accused of being absent without leave. So his
- 9:01Speaker 14: wife said he was brought back to San Diego. He
- 9:03Speaker 14: spent five days in a Navy hospital, but he never
- 9:06Speaker 14: saw a psychiatrist or therapist. And then he was told
- 9:09Speaker 14: to go right back to work. And so now he's
- 9:11Speaker 14: facing what they call a captain's mask, where his commanding
- 9:15Speaker 14: officer will decide his punishment and he could lose half
- 9:19Speaker 14: his pay. So this is Of course, now raising concerns,
- 9:22Speaker 14: even more questions about how the Navy is handling the
- 9:25Speaker 14: sailors and their mental health and the crisis that is
- 9:28Speaker 14: aboard that ship.
- 9:30Speaker 1: So, yeah, the problem with America in a nutshell, you know,
- 9:32Speaker 1: a person tries to kill their self and they get
- 9:34Speaker 1: punished instead of treated.
- 9:36Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 9:36Speaker 1: OK, that man needs to be with mental health professionals.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Nineteen years old, full frontal cortex, nowhere near developed.
- 9:40Speaker 4: All right. That man needs therapy, not of not a punishment.
- 9:44Speaker 14: Yes. Yes, exactly what so many people are saying. I mean,
- 9:49Speaker 14: so we'll talk about that some more, but coming up
- 9:51Speaker 14: at 7, we're going to talk about this landmark settlement
- 9:56Speaker 14: that is coming to a social media platform near you,
- 9:59Speaker 14: especially involving children.
- 10:01Speaker 11: We'll get into all the details and what you need
- 10:03Speaker 11: to know.
- 10:04Speaker 1: All right, it's time for Get It Off Your Chest, 1-800-585-1051.
- 10:07Speaker 1: You can call up right now and tell us why
- 10:09Speaker 1: you're stressed. You can call up and tell us why
- 10:11Speaker 1: you're blessed. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The
- 10:13Speaker 1: Breakfast Club.

- 10:28Speaker 4: Oh, I saw that. I want to Rod Wave promoting
- 10:30Speaker 4: that show.
- 10:31Speaker 3: I know y'all going to be late. It's Rod Wave's
- 10:32Speaker 3: birthday today, too.
- 10:33Speaker 6: It is.
- 10:34Speaker 4: Yes.
- 10:34Speaker 17: I have a show. I'm not going to be there
- 10:36Speaker 17: for the show, but I'm going to go and get
- 10:38Speaker 17: all the parties after. Wait, Jess, I called because I
- 10:40Speaker 17: want to tell you I'm going back to comedy after
- 10:42Speaker 17: our last conversation.
- 10:44Speaker 3: Oh, nice.
- 10:45Speaker 4: Good, good, good.
- 10:45Speaker 17: We were talking about Kevin Hart and the roasting thing
- 10:47Speaker 17: and how I was scared to do it.
- 10:49Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 10:49Speaker 17: Do you remember that?
- 10:51Speaker 4: Yes, I do.
- 10:51Speaker 3: I remember it.
- 10:52Speaker 17: All right, so I'm September 2nd. I'm going back to
- 10:54Speaker 17: the Ugly Gator Saloon and do comedy. And I just
- 10:56Speaker 17: wanted to call and tell you how much you inspired
- 10:58Speaker 17: me to go back to comedy. Because after that conversation,
- 11:01Speaker 17: I definitely did a deep dive about why I stopped.
- 11:04Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 11:04Speaker 17: Also, I applied to Kevin Hart's Funnier F * * *
- 11:06Speaker 17: ing Show, so he should definitely review my application.
- 11:08Speaker 1: First of all, tell us a joke, because Jess might
- 11:11Speaker 1: be influencing the wrong people.
- 11:13Speaker 3: No, stop.
- 11:14Speaker 6: I'll tell you a joke.
- 11:14Speaker 17: The government. The government is a joke. Let's start there.
- 11:17Speaker 3: There we go.
- 11:18Speaker 9: Boom.
- 11:18Speaker 11: Shut up.
- 11:19Speaker 10: No.
- 11:19Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
- 11:22Speaker 4: Yeah, we know, but what else? That's all you got?
- 11:24Speaker 1: No, we're not paying him.
- 11:24Speaker 17: Now, look, if you come to my show, I'll definitely
- 11:26Speaker 17: give you a joke.
- 11:27Speaker 4: Exactly.
- 11:28Speaker 17: I'll have a whole lot of views.
- 11:29Speaker 3: What'd I tell you? Don't ever tell a joke for
- 11:30Speaker 3: free because you ain't no damn clown. You're a comedian, period.
- 11:34Speaker 17: Oh, that part.
- 11:34Speaker 4: You need a clown to get paid? Wasn't you just
- 11:36Speaker 4: doing porn or something? Oh, my God.
- 11:38Speaker 1: What'd you say?
- 11:39Speaker 4: What you was doing? You was doing something on stage.
- 11:41Speaker 4: You had some type of freaky show.
- 11:42Speaker 6: It was.
- 11:42Speaker 9: Oh, no, no, no, no.
- 11:43Speaker 17: That was my friend Fiat, how bark like you want it, event.
- 11:46Speaker 3: Yes, yes.
- 11:47Speaker 17: And it's funny how Drake is now getting on the
- 11:49Speaker 17: leash because I definitely was on the forefront of that.
- 11:51Speaker 4: No, you weren't. There were so many.
- 11:56Speaker 17: Now, I want to say congratulations on the view, too.
- 11:58Speaker 17: Y'all look so good on the view. Yulana La Rosa.
- 12:01Speaker 17: That was beautiful.
- 12:02Speaker 4: Thanks.
- 12:02Speaker 3: That was a minute ago. He called and just saw it.
- 12:05Speaker 4: Oh, thank you, brother. We appreciate it, though.
- 12:07Speaker 17: Yeah, I just thought, no, y'all look good. I mean,
- 12:09Speaker 17: y'all have been looking good. Y'all can dress, that's for sure.
- 12:12Speaker 3: Oh, thank you. I appreciate it.
- 12:14Speaker 4: I mean, I've been on the view of this place.
- 12:15Speaker 17: Look, I love y'all. Y'all are so amazing. Thank you
- 12:17Speaker 17: for always answering my call. And if y'all are in
- 12:19Speaker 17: New Orleans, September 2nd at the Ugly Gator Saloon comedy show,
- 12:23Speaker 17: I'm having the real Kevin Little, Hippie Gypsy, and Maggie
- 12:29Speaker 17: Lambert perform and Brandon Haynes. So if you guys can
- 12:31Speaker 17: make it September 2nd at the Ugly Gator Saloon, that
- 12:34Speaker 17: would be amazing. And I love y'all and have a
- 12:36Speaker 17: blessed day.
- 12:36Speaker 3: I love you too. Stay funny and stay on that stage.
- 12:38Speaker 4: You don't know if you're funny.
- 12:39Speaker 10: Shut up.
- 12:40Speaker 4: Have a great day, sir. Hello, who is this?
- 12:43Speaker 6: It is Mike from Detroit.
- 12:44Speaker 4: What up, though, Mike?
- 12:46Speaker 3: How you doing?
- 12:46Speaker 2: What up, though? I'm all right.
- 12:49Speaker 6: I wanted to call in a comment on the sailor
- 12:51Speaker 6: that jumped overboard.
- 12:52Speaker 4: Yes, sir.
- 12:53Speaker 6: The reason why he getting in trouble is because they
- 12:55Speaker 6: call it obstruction of government property. You can't hurt yourself
- 12:58Speaker 6: because you government property.
- 13:00Speaker 1: Oh, man, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard in
- 13:02Speaker 1: my life. Because first of all, human beings, human beings
- 13:04Speaker 1: are not property.
- 13:05Speaker 4: That's number one.
- 13:06Speaker 1: And number two, if you don't factor in the mental
- 13:08Speaker 1: and emotional well-being of, you know, your military, something is wrong.
- 13:13Speaker 4: No, I agree with you.
- 13:14Speaker 6: But if you look on the military ID and say
- 13:16Speaker 6: property of the U.S.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Government.
- 13:18Speaker 1: And that's ridiculous. And that's how they treat you. They
- 13:20Speaker 1: treat you like they treat you just like you're just
- 13:22Speaker 1: a piece of property. If you can't even have, you know,
- 13:24Speaker 1: a mental and emotional, you know, breakdown. Like, why are
- 13:28Speaker 1: you getting punished for it?
- 13:29Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 13:30Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 13:30Speaker 6: And not only he also he going to take half
- 13:33Speaker 6: his pay for 45 days. They're going to knock him
- 13:35Speaker 6: down in rank. And then when the ship pull in,
- 13:38Speaker 6: he going to have to stay on the ship an
- 13:39Speaker 6: additional 45 days.
- 13:40Speaker 1: That is the problem with America in a nutshell. They
- 13:43Speaker 1: always weaponizing things like, you know, mental health issues. They
- 13:47Speaker 1: weaponize things like poverty instead of trying to actually treat
- 13:50Speaker 1: those issues.
- 13:50Speaker 3: So basically jail.
- 13:51Speaker 2: So I agree.
- 13:53Speaker 6: Yo, can I give a shout out?
- 13:54Speaker 4: Yes, sir.
- 13:55Speaker 6: I want to give a shout out to my kids, Linnea, Rain, LJ.
- 13:58Speaker 6: I love y'all. And I also want to give a
- 14:00Speaker 6: shout out. To my fiance, Valerie Frazier, we got a
- 14:03Speaker 6: new baby on the way due in October.
- 14:05Speaker 2: Yuri, daddy, love you.
- 14:06Speaker 6: And last, shout out to my pastor, Pastor Marvin L.
- 14:08Speaker 6: Harris from Moonlight Missionary Baptist Church.
- 14:10Speaker 4: Congratulations, my brother.
- 14:11Speaker 3: Congratulations on your bundle of joy.
- 14:13Speaker 7: Yes, sir.
- 14:14Speaker 3: And you're about to get married.
- 14:15Speaker 2: Yes, yes, thank you.
- 14:17Speaker 4: Congrats, King.
- 14:19Speaker 6: All right, appreciate y'all.
- 14:20Speaker 4: I meant to say criminalize, too, not weaponize. I'm sorry.
- 14:23Speaker 1: We criminalize mental health issues in this country, and we
- 14:26Speaker 1: criminalize poverty in this country instead of actually treating the issue.
- 14:30Speaker 4: Get it off your chest.
- 14:31Speaker 1: If you want to call up and tell us why
- 14:32Speaker 1: you're blessed, if you want to call up and tell
- 14:34Speaker 1: us why you're stressed, 1-800-585-1051.
- 14:37Speaker 4: It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
- 14:39Speaker 6: Wake up, wake up.
- 14:40Speaker 4: Wake your ass up. This is your time to get
- 14:43Speaker 4: it off your chest.
- 14:43Speaker 2: Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from
- 14:47Speaker 2: you on The Breakfast Club.
- 14:51Speaker 4: Good morning. Who's this?
- 14:52Speaker 8: This is Trina.
- 14:52Speaker 4: Hey, what's your name, Trina?
- 14:55Speaker 3: Good morning, Trina.
- 14:56Speaker 8: Trina.
- 14:56Speaker 3: Hey, Trina.
- 14:57Speaker 4: How are you, Trina? What's happening?
- 14:59Speaker 8: I'm just trying to get the stress off my chest,
- 15:01Speaker 8: and I appreciate y'all's amygdala.
- 15:03Speaker 4: Feel your feels.
- 15:04Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 15:04Speaker 4: The floor is yours.
- 15:05Speaker 7: Yes.
- 15:06Speaker 8: It's just the fact that I just moved to North
- 15:08Speaker 8: Carolina from Cincinnati, Ohio, and the move is beautiful and stressful.
- 15:14Speaker 8: You know, almost feeling that I just want to have
- 15:19Speaker 8: breast cancer stage four, and I didn't want to live
- 15:22Speaker 8: my life up in Ohio. I thought if I was unhappy,
- 15:24Speaker 8: but making the move to North Carolina is so stressful
- 15:28Speaker 8: because of the cost of living and everything is hard
- 15:31Speaker 8: to get started out here. And because with my chemo
- 15:35Speaker 8: and the doctor's appointments, it's just stressful. And just to
- 15:39Speaker 8: have somebody, like, just to keep it going is.
- 15:42Speaker 3: Hard out here.
- 15:44Speaker 4: Why'd you move? For affordability? Are the treatments better down there?
- 15:47Speaker 8: It's just the fact that I didn't want to live
- 15:49Speaker 8: my life in Ohio. I was unhappy, and I felt
- 15:53Speaker 8: that being at stage four, I didn't want to have
- 15:57Speaker 8: my life ended in Ohio when I hated it so much.
- 16:00Speaker 8: And I came to my Carolina for a visit, and
- 16:03Speaker 8: I fell in love. And I said, this is the
- 16:05Speaker 8: place I want to live. but I'm not knowing it
- 16:08Speaker 8: was so hard. The cost of living is just stressful
- 16:11Speaker 8: and there's nothing that's going right for me right now.
- 16:15Speaker 4: Man, what part of North Carolina are you in?
- 16:16Speaker 8: We're in Concord.
- 16:18Speaker 4: Oh, close to Charlotte. Okay, okay. Well, we're sending you
- 16:22Speaker 4: positive energy, love.
- 16:23Speaker 2: And light.
- 16:24Speaker 1: And, you know, I got all the confidence in the world.
- 16:27Speaker 1: You're going to figure it out. What's up? Where's your
- 16:29Speaker 1: cancer at now? You said stage four?
- 16:31Speaker 8: Well, stage four breast cancer. And at this time, I
- 16:35Speaker 8: was saying that At this time, there's no, no, we have,
- 16:38Speaker 8: we don't even have a mission that this is going
- 16:41Speaker 8: to be what takes my life. So just try to
- 16:43Speaker 8: enjoy what I have and keep going. But I can't
- 16:46Speaker 8: enjoy it when I'm stressed all the time because financially
- 16:50Speaker 8: everything is hitting and where I can't even do anything
- 16:53Speaker 8: or get caught up doing anything right now.
- 16:57Speaker 4: Lord have mercy.
- 16:58Speaker 1: I wish I could wave a magic wand and make
- 17:00Speaker 1: your cancer go away and I wish I could put
- 17:02Speaker 1: it A whole bunch of money in your bank account.
- 17:04Speaker 4: But, I mean.

- 17:12Speaker 8: getting it off your chest was something I said I
- 17:14Speaker 8: was going to do. And that just gives me the
- 17:16Speaker 8: room for it. So, I appreciate it. And the listeners,

- 21:05Speaker 3: Hey, so Jay-Z yesterday and Ruben, they released a trailer,
- 21:11Speaker 3: another one, but this one's a little bit more in-depth,
- 21:12Speaker 3: and we also got a release date for the eight-part
- 21:15Speaker 3: docuseries that they're doing called Jay-Z in Eight. um now
- 21:19Speaker 3: this docuseries will go into jay-z's career his love of
- 21:23Speaker 3: writing just the rap game in general and they'll use
- 21:26Speaker 3: his songs to do so so for instance episode one
- 21:28Speaker 3: will feature intro off of the dynasty uh rock rock
- 21:33Speaker 3: rock la familia uh meet the parents off of 2002's
- 21:36Speaker 3: the blueprint 2 can't knock the hustle uh reasonable doubt
- 21:40Speaker 3: off a reasonable doubt um and what more can i
- 21:42Speaker 3: say off of 2003's the black album so they'll You know,
- 21:45Speaker 3: each episode will use certain songs to tell the story
- 21:47Speaker 3: of his life and career.
- 21:48Speaker 14: Oh.
- 21:49Speaker 17: Yes.
- 21:49Speaker 3: Now, we know that Rick Rubin and him have had,
- 21:51Speaker 3: you know, this relationship going for some years. Now, let's
- 21:55Speaker 3: take a listen to the trailer a bit, and then
- 21:57Speaker 3: we'll get more into the conversation.
- 21:59Speaker 4: But imagine, allow me to reintroduce myself. My name is...
- 22:06Speaker 4: You up for listening to a bit of music, sir?
- 22:08Speaker 5: Let's do it.
- 22:09Speaker 4: Let's listen to something. Round nine is when I caught
- 22:11Speaker 4: the bug, like, being obsessed.
- 22:13Speaker 2: I will write every day.
- 22:15Speaker 4: Writing.
- 22:17Speaker 7: Writing.
- 22:19Speaker 6: Just writing.
- 22:21Speaker 3: Every day.
- 22:21Speaker 1: The reason why rap is so loved, that feeling of
- 22:25Speaker 1: that underdog, that's why people were listening.
- 22:28Speaker 4: That's why it hit them somewhere. That's incredible. You reinvented
- 22:32Speaker 4: what was possible to do. How far can we go
- 22:35Speaker 4: with this? How powerful is this music? This is wild.
- 22:40Speaker 3: Yeah, now Rick Rubin is also helping Jay-Z on the
- 22:42Speaker 3: director side of this because he is directing it. And
- 22:44Speaker 3: it's going to be a very in-depth conversation. This is
- 22:47Speaker 3: all a part of the 30-year anniversary of Reasonable Doubt
- 22:49Speaker 3: and the celebrations that have been happening. So, you know,
- 22:51Speaker 3: fans are excited. And I mentioned that we got the
- 22:53Speaker 3: dates now. So the episodes will drop. Well, the first
- 22:57Speaker 3: two episodes of this will drop on September 18th. And
- 23:00Speaker 3: then two additional episodes will drop every Friday through October 9th.
- 23:04Speaker 1: I'm reserving all judgment until I watch it. I don't
- 23:06Speaker 1: believe in Rick Rubin's ability to carry a conversation through.
- 23:09Speaker 1: With Jay-Z for eight episodes. But if it's about music,
- 23:12Speaker 1: you said it's about music.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Yeah, it's about music and his career. Like they use
- 23:15Speaker 3: the music to like, well, from what it seems like,
- 23:17Speaker 3: because I haven't seen it. It seems like they center
- 23:20Speaker 3: the music, but then he talks about his career around
- 23:22Speaker 3: that music. I would think that Rick Rubin would be
- 23:24Speaker 3: the perfect person for that because they've had such a
- 23:25Speaker 3: long relationship. you know, creative relationship.
- 23:27Speaker 4: We'll see.
- 23:28Speaker 3: Okay. All right.
- 23:29Speaker 1: I mean, cause you know, I love seeing, I'm sure
- 23:32Speaker 1: that him and Rick Rubin have a great conversation about music,
- 23:34Speaker 1: but I love when the Angie Martinez is in the
- 23:37Speaker 1: mix of it all as well.
- 23:38Speaker 3: Angie Martinez would have been amazing.
- 23:39Speaker 4: No, no, I'm not saying like a triangle offense, like
- 23:42Speaker 4: Angie and Rick, you know what I mean?
- 23:43Speaker 3: I see what you get.
- 23:44Speaker 1: The music conversation, we know Rick can handle, but then
- 23:46Speaker 1: there's other things around that, that I feel like, you know,
- 23:49Speaker 1: somebody like.
- 23:49Speaker 3: The culture part of it, or the pop culture side
- 23:51Speaker 3: of it.
- 23:51Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 23:52Speaker 4: No, just culture, period. Art culture. Yes, absolutely.
- 23:54Speaker 3: Because even, like, if you read Angie Martinez's book, there's
- 23:56Speaker 3: a lot of Jay-Z's career that I learned, even though
- 23:59Speaker 3: it was small, but, like, just her relationship with him
- 24:01Speaker 3: and how she anchored so many different things. That would
- 24:03Speaker 3: have been amazing.
- 24:03Speaker 4: But I don't want to put nothing on it until
- 24:05Speaker 4: I see it, though. I want to see it. Dang,
- 24:06Speaker 4: they need her in there.
- 24:07Speaker 1: It'll probably be incredible, but I want to see it.
- 24:09Speaker 3: For sure, for sure. You know one thing I thought
- 24:10Speaker 3: was interesting, too, when he talks about rapping and being
- 24:13Speaker 3: an underdog? People can't even imagine Jay-Z as an underdog
- 24:16Speaker 3: where he is now today.
- 24:16Speaker 4: Everybody starts somewhere.
- 24:17Speaker 7: Yeah, right?
- 24:18Speaker 4: If you can't see that, then you crazy. He was?
- 24:20Speaker 3: The underdog, he was known as the underdog. I mean,
- 24:22Speaker 3: he was.
- 24:23Speaker 4: I said, everybody don't start, you don't get to this point.
- 24:26Speaker 3: I mean, I know that, but everybody don't start as
- 24:28Speaker 3: an underdog either. I thought that, you know, I thought
- 24:30Speaker 3: he was always gigaman. I mean, he had.
- 24:32Speaker 4: Probably wasn't his mind.
- 24:34Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. And he's always talked about coming into the
- 24:36Speaker 3: game with money because he was doing things outside of rap.
- 24:38Speaker 3: He was always smart. But I feel like musically, he
- 24:41Speaker 3: had to prove himself. Like, I've heard conversations about people
- 24:44Speaker 3: not even supporting Reasonable Doubt, though, that they do now
- 24:47Speaker 3: when it first dropped.
- 24:47Speaker 7: Okay.
- 24:49Speaker 3: But yeah, so yes, we'll be tuned in for that.
- 24:51Speaker 3: And once we watch it, we'll be back here having
- 24:53Speaker 3: some conversations. But speaking of the dynasty and the Carter family,
- 24:57Speaker 3: Beyonce announced yesterday that she's going to make a personal donation,
- 25:01Speaker 3: shifting gears a bit, but still in shape of supporting
- 25:03Speaker 3: something good. She's going to make a personal donation of
- 25:06Speaker 3: a million dollars to support relief efforts in Colombia after
- 25:09Speaker 3: that 7.4 magnitude earthquake hit. that devastated a certain region
- 25:13Speaker 3: in Colombia earlier this month. Now, this amount is earmarked,
- 25:17Speaker 3: and it's going to help provide food and housing supplies
- 25:20Speaker 3: to the hardest-hit areas affected by the earthquake, according to
- 25:23Speaker 3: the press release that Parkwood Entertainment put out yesterday.
- 25:26Speaker 4: That's amazing. We was just.
- 25:28Speaker 3: Talking about the good that people do, that goes unnoticed,
- 25:30Speaker 3: so people don't like to honor people for. And I think, yeah,
- 25:33Speaker 3: because we were just talking about Jay-Z and somebody, oh,
- 25:35Speaker 3: Tyler Perry. Tyler Perry, yep. Beyonce is another person who
- 25:37Speaker 3: helps people all the time. All the time. And they
- 25:41Speaker 3: don't even try to make it big. They don't even
- 25:44Speaker 3: try to put it in the news.
- 25:45Speaker 4: I'm surprised that came up.
- 25:47Speaker 3: Well, she released the press release, and so it went everywhere.
- 25:50Speaker 3: And I think, well, I don't feel like there's been
- 25:52Speaker 3: a lot of conversations around Columbia and what happened there.
- 25:54Speaker 3: Had you guys said? No, I haven't heard about the earthquake. Okay,
- 25:57Speaker 3: I heard that it was the earthquake. Yeah, I heard
- 25:58Speaker 3: about the earthquake. But yeah, I think because people are
- 26:01Speaker 3: trying to figure out how people are being helped there.
- 26:02Speaker 3: But I feel like there's so much going on. There's Columbia.
- 26:05Speaker 3: There's stuff in Memphis. There's Gary and Deanna. Puerto Rico
- 26:07Speaker 3: is dealing with a crisis right now. as well too
- 26:10Speaker 3: it's just a lot happening but yes um dang Tyler
- 26:13Speaker 3: Perry we'll do it next hour okay next hour we
- 26:15Speaker 3: got a whole show I know I'm just excited there's
- 26:17Speaker 3: a lot of good things happening today but next hour
- 26:19Speaker 3: we'll talk about Tyler Perry the next latest and something
- 26:21Speaker 3: that he's launching um in honor of his mother that
- 26:24Speaker 3: is actually going to help a lot of up-and-coming independent filmmakers.
- 26:27Speaker 1: Nice dropping the clues behind Tyler Perry absolutely Just out

- 26:39Speaker 4: white people listening. All right.
- 26:41Speaker 1: It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Yes,
- 26:43Speaker 1: it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
- 26:45Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. Envy is on vacation,
- 26:49Speaker 1: but Lauren LaRosa is here. And it's time for Front
- 26:51Speaker 1: Page News with Mimi Brown.
- 26:52Speaker 3: Real quick in sports, y'all. The NFL is eliminating the
- 26:56Speaker 3: Pro Bowl games. Instead, shifting the focus to celebrating the
- 27:00Speaker 3: honor of being a Pro Bowl selection.
- 27:02Speaker 1: That's good, because nobody takes the Pro Bowl seriously. Football
- 27:04Speaker 1: is too dangerous a sport just to be playing extracurricular games.
- 27:07Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
- 27:08Speaker 3: When I heard that yesterday, I was like, is that
- 27:09Speaker 3: the one that happened at Thanksgiving? I'm like, oh, that's
- 27:11Speaker 3: the turkey bowl.
- 27:12Speaker 4: I don't know what the hell you're talking about.
- 27:14Speaker 3: People go out and do turkey bowl games.
- 27:15Speaker 18: That's the Hawaii one, right?
- 27:16Speaker 11: I don't know what you're talking about.
- 27:17Speaker 3: No, like people, just like regular people. Y'all don't know
- 27:20Speaker 3: people that go do turkey bowl at Thanksgiving?
- 27:21Speaker 10: No.
- 27:21Speaker 4: What the hell are you talking about?
- 27:23Speaker 3: They play football games, like pick up football games, and
- 27:25Speaker 3: they call it the turkey bowls.
- 27:26Speaker 5: It happens.
- 27:27Speaker 3: I don't know what you're talking about.
- 27:29Speaker 10: No.
- 27:29Speaker 4: Okay.
- 27:29Speaker 3: Yeah, all right.
- 27:30Speaker 10: Whatever.
- 27:31Speaker 4: I know football comes on on Thanksgiving, but it ain't
- 27:32Speaker 4: no extracurricular.
- 27:33Speaker 3: Turkey bowl.
- 27:35Speaker 4: Good morning, Mimi.
- 27:36Speaker 11: Good morning.
- 27:38Speaker 3: Okay, y'all.
- 27:38Speaker 14: So we start this hour with a landmark settlement that
- 27:41Speaker 14: could change how millions of teenagers use social media.
- 27:45Speaker 11: So Meta has.
- 27:46Speaker 14: Agreed to pay up to $ 18 billion to settle claims
- 27:49Speaker 14: that Facebook and Instagram were designed to addict children and
- 27:53Speaker 14: were harming their mental health. So 29 states, they brought
- 27:56Speaker 14: the case accusing Meta of knowing that its platforms could
- 27:59Speaker 14: harm children, but failing to do anything about it.
- 28:03Speaker 11: Now, Meta is denying any wrongdoing.
- 28:05Speaker 14: In Massachusetts, it was one of the states that brought
- 28:08Speaker 14: on the case. Here's Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell on
- 28:12Speaker 14: what it took to get META to this point.
- 28:14Speaker 11: Let's listen.
- 28:15Speaker 18: The companies didn't come to the table willing to bring
- 28:18Speaker 18: about these protections, right? This has been a fight, I
- 28:23Speaker 18: should say, every step of the way to get META.
- 28:27Speaker 18: to redesign its platforms in a way that don't harm
- 28:31Speaker 18: our children. And so we may continue, of course, to
- 28:34Speaker 18: evaluate what enforcement actions look like against other platforms. And
- 28:37Speaker 18: of course, we still have the ongoing litigation against TikTok,
- 28:40Speaker 18: which we will continue to work on aggressively.
- 28:45Speaker 14: So as part of the settlement agreement, Meta is being
- 28:48Speaker 14: forced to make some real changes. So let's start with
- 28:50Speaker 14: this one. So for users under 18, Facebook and Instagram
- 28:54Speaker 14: will have a two-hour daily limit. So teens will be
- 28:58Speaker 14: blocked from using the app between midnight and 6 a.m.
- 29:02Speaker 14: Med will offer also do better at their verification those
- 29:06Speaker 14: ages that you know how they check your age to
- 29:07Speaker 14: see how old you are they're going to implement new
- 29:09Speaker 14: verification standards uh teens will not will no longer be
- 29:13Speaker 14: able to see how many likes that their posts will
- 29:16Speaker 14: get and you know some of those extreme beauty filters
- 29:19Speaker 14: like the one that can can completely change what your
- 29:22Speaker 14: face looks like yeah teen users will be blocked from
- 29:25Speaker 14: being able to access those.
- 29:27Speaker 3: The filters move the filters The filters. I'm sorry, Mimi.
- 29:32Speaker 3: I don't know for a little minute. This is social media, right?
- 29:36Speaker 4: Yep.
- 29:36Speaker 11: This is Instagram and Facebook.
- 29:37Speaker 3: You know, the crazy thing is I'm actually... okay with
- 29:40Speaker 3: that because I feel like, right, over the past, what, five, seven,
- 29:45Speaker 3: ten years, it's been harder for people to take pictures,
- 29:49Speaker 3: regular pictures. You can have your makeup done. You can
- 29:52Speaker 3: get all the Botox in the world. You can do
- 29:53Speaker 3: all these face alterations and still need a filter.
- 29:55Speaker 14: Right.
- 29:55Speaker 3: You still have a filter and that's messing with these
- 29:58Speaker 3: people's confidence. And when you're used to taking pictures with filters,
- 30:04Speaker 3: it makes you look at yourself like, oh my God,
- 30:06Speaker 3: I'm real ugly or whatever.
- 30:08Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 30:09Speaker 11: And it's giving these young girls self-esteem problems.
- 30:11Speaker 3: It can alter your perception about yourself.
- 30:13Speaker 1: I agree with you. But I would think that if
- 30:15Speaker 1: you got to keep doing it. It's like when you
- 30:17Speaker 1: got to keep washing your ass because something stinks.
- 30:19Speaker 14: No.
- 30:19Speaker 4: I don't care how many filters.
- 30:20Speaker 5: You put on it.
- 30:21Speaker 4: If you don't look good, you don't look good.
- 30:23Speaker 3: No, it's just a habit. It became a habit. And
- 30:27Speaker 3: now we are addicted to filters. And I'm saying we
- 30:29Speaker 3: because me too. It's not very often that I take
- 30:32Speaker 3: a picture without a filter. It's like sometimes, too, with
- 30:35Speaker 3: your makeup, I feel like you want it to smooth
- 30:39Speaker 3: it or tighten it. And then Facetune and certain apps
- 30:42Speaker 3: will do that for you. Absolutely. So you do get
- 30:45Speaker 3: used to it.
- 30:46Speaker 4: Yeah, you do.
- 30:46Speaker 3: You get used to it. And then once you have
- 30:49Speaker 3: to take a picture with the regular camera, you'll be like, uh-uh,
- 30:51Speaker 3: now where'd that bump come from? Uh-uh, why are my
- 30:52Speaker 3: eyes too far apart? My nose spread like a couch.
- 30:55Speaker 8: Oh, my God.
- 30:55Speaker 4: My lips.
- 30:57Speaker 11: But think about you guys. You guys are adults.
- 30:59Speaker 14: So think about children like girls, 13 boys, 14 using
- 31:02Speaker 14: stuff like this, right?
- 31:03Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 31:04Speaker 11: On this type of stuff way too early.
- 31:06Speaker 3: Because when I was that age, we were just posting.
- 31:08Speaker 3: We did like the HDR filter, but it just made
- 31:10Speaker 3: you look more sharp.
- 31:11Speaker 16: We were literally.
- 31:12Speaker 3: We just used to do things and just not think
- 31:14Speaker 3: about it. We would post, be excited. Selfies now is curated. Well,
- 31:17Speaker 3: I tell you, you didn't even have to take a
- 31:19Speaker 3: picture and be like, oh, let me see. Let me
- 31:20Speaker 3: see real quick. People would take pictures and just post them.
- 31:23Speaker 4: Well, people weren't so judgmental back then either.
- 31:25Speaker 3: Yeah, not at all.
- 31:26Speaker 4: That's true.
- 31:27Speaker 3: Everybody probably was like ugly.
- 31:28Speaker 6: Man.
- 31:29Speaker 4: I don't think there is a.
- 31:30Speaker 11: Well, this larger legal.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Go ahead.
- 31:33Speaker 19: Go ahead, Sean.
- 31:34Speaker 3: We ought to be ugly together. Yeah.
- 31:37Speaker 14: This larger legal fight, though, it is far from over.
- 31:40Speaker 14: Meta and other social media companies, they still face thousands
- 31:43Speaker 14: of lawsuits from family and school districts over claims that
- 31:45Speaker 14: their platforms harmed young children. And Meta is saying it
- 31:49Speaker 14: should not be the only company making these changes. They
- 31:52Speaker 14: want TikTok and YouTube to come to the table, too,
- 31:55Speaker 14: saying these protections should apply across industry standards because kids
- 31:59Speaker 14: can simply move from one app to the other. So,
- 32:02Speaker 14: in fact, part of the money that Meta could ultimately
- 32:05Speaker 14: pay out is contingent upon whether TikTok and YouTube adopt
- 32:09Speaker 14: similar protections. So we'll continue to watch this because for
- 32:13Speaker 14: some of this $ 18 billion settlement to play out, those
- 32:18Speaker 14: other companies have to come to the table and also
- 32:20Speaker 14: agree to make changes to their platform.
- 32:22Speaker 4: I'm going to tell you something. I don't think there is.
- 32:25Speaker 1: A healthy way to digest social media and it's never
- 32:27Speaker 1: going to be a healthy way to digest social media.
- 32:29Speaker 4: It's junk food our it's really the tobacco industry.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Like you use it knowing the risk like you know
- 32:35Speaker 1: like there is a lot of great information on social
- 32:37Speaker 1: media don't get me wrong but you know one thing
- 32:39Speaker 1: i try to do to at least you know have
- 32:41Speaker 1: healthier habits with social media it's like you know how
- 32:43Speaker 1: those you'll see like a headline or you'll see like
- 32:46Speaker 1: um like the meme of something, right? And then it'll say,
- 32:49Speaker 1: click the link in the bio for the full story.
- 32:51Speaker 1: I'll click the link in the bio and read the
- 32:53Speaker 1: whole story because I don't want to just consume the
- 32:55Speaker 1: headline or the bite. I don't want to just get
- 32:57Speaker 1: into that habit because I guarantee you, if you do
- 33:00Speaker 1: studies on people's brains right now, you'll be able to
- 33:03Speaker 1: see how people spend too much time on social media.
- 33:05Speaker 1: And I know it's having an impact on our cognitive abilities.
- 33:08Speaker 1: Like you could tell how people think you could tell
- 33:10Speaker 1: how people talk. Folks is constantly watching their back for
- 33:13Speaker 1: imaginary lynch mobs that don't even exist.
- 33:15Speaker 4: Like social media is not healthy.
- 33:17Speaker 1: I don't think there is a healthy way to digest
- 33:19Speaker 1: social media.
- 33:20Speaker 11: And yeah, I would agree with that.
- 33:23Speaker 14: And really quickly before we go, we just have a
- 33:25Speaker 14: really quick update in Gary, Indiana, where, you know, we've
- 33:27Speaker 14: been following the families who've gone more than two weeks
- 33:30Speaker 14: without power after those devastating storms. So the lights are
- 33:33Speaker 14: finally back on for most everyone as of last night,
- 33:37Speaker 14: just over, 100 customers in Gary were still without power.
- 33:41Speaker 14: At this point, the storm knocked out about, well, at
- 33:44Speaker 14: one point, the storm knocked out about 80% of NIPSCO's customers. Now,
- 33:49Speaker 14: the utility company says that larger restoration effort is substantially complete,
- 33:56Speaker 14: but they're still facing questions over why it took so
- 33:58Speaker 14: long in the first place. Indiana officials, they've called for
- 34:02Speaker 14: an investigation into the utility company's response, and now President
- 34:06Speaker 14: Trump He's approved a major disaster declaration, meaning that will
- 34:10Speaker 14: open the door for additional federal aid to the area.
- 34:13Speaker 11: So quick update there.
- 34:14Speaker 3: Thank you, Amy. Yep, that's amazing. All right, y'all.

- 37:34Speaker 2: I signed. I signed for like a couple of albums.
- 37:36Speaker 2: We did it. And it was the best decision of
- 37:38Speaker 2: my life.
- 37:39Speaker 3: And the first project y'all did together was your My
- 37:41Speaker 3: Ghetto Report Card?
- 37:42Speaker 2: Yes, ma'am.
- 37:43Speaker 4: Okay.
- 37:43Speaker 2: And I did that with them. Why was that the
- 37:45Speaker 2: best decision of your life? Because I was always 75-25.
- 37:50Speaker 2: 75 me, 25 Jive. So it was a P & D,
- 37:55Speaker 2: pressing and distribution deal. I never got the full machine
- 37:59Speaker 2: behind me. So when I signed with Lil Jon, I'm like, uh-oh.
- 38:03Speaker 2: All I got to do is provide the music. We
- 38:05Speaker 2: had Reprise Warner behind us.
- 38:07Speaker 8: Right.
- 38:08Speaker 2: And I provided them with the slaps.
- 38:10Speaker 14: Wow.
- 38:11Speaker 2: You feel me? It really wasn't, I didn't even really
- 38:13Speaker 2: know the direction to go. You know, I had got
- 38:15Speaker 2: on Snap Your Fingers with them. That thing was going already.
- 38:18Speaker 2: You know what I mean? That was during the snap
- 38:20Speaker 2: and the hyphy movement. So I was part of both.
- 38:22Speaker 2: So I was winning, period. You know what I'm saying?
- 38:25Speaker 2: And then I just went in there. He had set
- 38:28Speaker 2: up like an Airbnb way back then. That was 2008. four, 2000, 2005, 2005.
- 38:34Speaker 2: I stayed there for four and a half months. I mean,
- 38:37Speaker 2: not four and a half months. I'm sorry. Uh, weeks,
- 38:39Speaker 2: three and a half weeks, Daniel, four months, four weeks. And,
- 38:43Speaker 2: when I stayed there, I got a lot done at
- 38:45Speaker 2: Stankonia studio within a small amount of time. I go
- 38:49Speaker 2: in there, I see scrapping them in their crime mob,
- 38:51Speaker 2: all of them, all of them good people. We all
- 38:53Speaker 2: vibing and whatnot. And, um, you know, I went in
- 38:55Speaker 2: there and just went to work, knocked out all them slaps, man,
- 38:58Speaker 2: snap your fingers, tell me when to go. You in
- 39:00Speaker 2: that booty. I did You and That Booty. You and
- 39:02Speaker 2: That Booty dang near three times platinum. Tell me when
- 39:04Speaker 2: it go. Just went platinum. It took a long time.
- 39:07Speaker 4: Crazy.
- 39:08Speaker 2: It wasn't streaming. I don't know. You and That Booty
- 39:10Speaker 2: was all over the place like space. It was at
- 39:14Speaker 2: 2.7 right now if you do your consumption numbers with Illuminate.
- 39:18Speaker 2: You feel me? That thing about to be three times platinum. Shit, man.
- 39:23Speaker 2: I went in there and just did work. The album
- 39:27Speaker 2: was platinum. Get up my report card. Yeah, go ahead.
- 39:32Speaker 1: I love Snap Your Fingers verse because you can tell
- 39:34Speaker 1: you from the Bay Area.
- 39:37Speaker 4: You in Atlanta, and this is like, you know, you're
- 39:40Speaker 4: going to the club.
- 39:41Speaker 1: I've been mobbing all day, going to the club. The
- 39:46Speaker 1: way you describe it is a person sitting in the
- 39:48Speaker 1: club looking around Atlanta like, what is.
- 39:49Speaker 4: Going on, right?
- 39:50Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 39:52Speaker 4: That verse is so descriptive when you listen to it, man.
- 39:55Speaker 2: John and my boy Al Capone coached me on that
- 39:58Speaker 2: because I didn't know how to adjust. I ain't never
- 40:00Speaker 2: really just been a radio-making type of guy. My songs,
- 40:03Speaker 2: when they on the radio, they just go natural like
- 40:06Speaker 2: an afro. You know what I mean? I just do them.
- 40:09Speaker 2: And so he was like, this is how we're going
- 40:11Speaker 2: to do it. And that was my first time able
- 40:13Speaker 2: to really listen and really be an artist. Remember I
- 40:17Speaker 2: told you I was always my own, you know what
- 40:19Speaker 2: I'm saying? I was independent. I was like, I get
- 40:22Speaker 2: to be an artist. And, man, they put that machine
- 40:24Speaker 2: behind it, man.
- 40:25Speaker 4: That had to be based off of real night, though. Yeah,
- 40:28Speaker 4: for sure. Straight from the back. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 40:31Speaker 2: Because I'm with Lou John now. You know, them dudes,
- 40:35Speaker 2: they in the club all the time. I'm peeping the
- 40:37Speaker 2: whole woodwap. You feel me? And it's a trip. Let's
- 40:40Speaker 2: talk about you and that booty, right? My boy Al Capone.
- 40:44Speaker 2: You know who Al Capone is? He out of Memphis.
- 40:46Speaker 2: Very legendary. Very legendary rapper.
- 40:49Speaker 4: Yeah, I heard the name before.
- 40:50Speaker 2: He was signed to me back in the late 90s,
- 40:52Speaker 2: early 2000s. And that's my guy to this day. We family, right?
- 40:56Speaker 2: He the dude who sing that song, whoop that trick.
- 40:59Speaker 4: Whoop that trick.
- 41:00Speaker 2: You feel me? That's his song. So we, you know
- 41:03Speaker 2: what I'm saying? So he, it's a trip because we
- 41:05Speaker 2: was in there and John had did the beat to
- 41:08Speaker 2: you and that, right? And then he said, he said, man,
- 41:11Speaker 2: Al Capone was like, man, we need somebody that's not over, overused,
- 41:15Speaker 2: but on the climb. But, you know, he wanted him once.
- 41:18Speaker 2: And then he just T-Pain.
- 41:20Speaker 6: T-Pain.
- 41:20Speaker 14: Mm-hmm.
- 41:23Speaker 2: And one of my guys was in there. He had
- 41:24Speaker 2: just did an interview. He said, I just did an
- 41:26Speaker 2: interview for him.
- 41:27Speaker 4: I got his number.
- 41:28Speaker 2: So I called him. I say, man, can you come
- 41:30Speaker 2: down to Stankonia? He was like, hell yeah. He just
- 41:33Speaker 2: so happened to be in Atlanta. And they came in there.
- 41:35Speaker 2: He just, what's up, Fonzarelli? I knew he knew about
- 41:38Speaker 2: me when he just, Fonzarelli, that's one of my handles. Fonzarelli, right?
- 41:42Speaker 2: Came in there and knocked that shit out without the auto-tune.
- 41:45Speaker 2: And then he put the auto-tune on his voice on
- 41:47Speaker 2: top of that. But it was already one of them ones.
- 41:49Speaker 2: And then Rob Mack came in there. He said, that's it.
- 41:51Speaker 2: And so I just filled in the blanks, killed it.
- 41:53Speaker 2: And then we called, oh, then we won it. No,
- 41:56Speaker 2: but listen.
- 41:57Speaker 4: That's not candy from the housewives.
- 41:59Speaker 2: That's candy from the housewives. But peep game, peep the play,
- 42:02Speaker 2: how it went. We called, you know, sis up out
- 42:05Speaker 2: the Bay Area, we called Keisha Cole. You know what
- 42:08Speaker 2: I'm saying? It just so happened she pulled up, but
- 42:11Speaker 2: I don't know what happened. I don't know if it
- 42:12Speaker 2: was the yaper. We had the yaper and she pulled up.
- 42:15Speaker 2: Last minute, she decided to not do it. No.
- 42:18Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
- 42:19Speaker 2: But I love her. We got love. I don't know.
- 42:21Speaker 2: You know, you never know what person, you know what
- 42:23Speaker 2: I'm saying? I don't really know the whole story, you
- 42:25Speaker 2: know what I'm saying? But regardless of what, Candy had
- 42:27Speaker 2: already wrote her part for, you know what I'm saying?
- 42:30Speaker 2: For whoever was going to do it. You know what
- 42:33Speaker 2: I mean? And Lil Jon was like, just let Kandi
- 42:35Speaker 2: do it.
- 42:35Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, let Kandi do the shit. You
- 42:37Speaker 4: know what I mean?
- 42:38Speaker 2: Because she used to write. And that's like, Kandi, you
- 42:40Speaker 2: a star already. So Kandi went there and killed it, right? Kandi,
- 42:44Speaker 2: good people. She dope. So sis went there and killed it.
- 42:46Speaker 2: So we got something that's almost three times platinum. That's
- 42:49Speaker 2: a great expression.
- 42:50Speaker 1: But it's crazy when you look at that record now,
- 42:51Speaker 1: because you see E-40, T-Pain, and Kandi. Like, it's three
- 42:55Speaker 1: legendary individuals.
- 42:57Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 42:58Speaker 3: And at the time, y'all was just doing what felt
- 43:00Speaker 3: good and collabing with people that felt good.
- 43:01Speaker 4: Yes, ma'am.
- 43:02Speaker 3: It's 20 years later since.
- 43:03Speaker 4: Right.
- 43:03Speaker 3: You're celebrating 20 years.
- 43:05Speaker 15: Wow.
- 43:05Speaker 4: Go ahead.
- 43:06Speaker 2: Go ahead.
- 43:07Speaker 6: Yeah, no, no.
- 43:07Speaker 4: Go ahead.
- 43:08Speaker 2: So it's a trip because within that same little frame
- 43:11Speaker 2: of tell me when to go, we did Snap Your Fingers.
- 43:13Speaker 2: Lil Jon did that during my session. He took my
- 43:16Speaker 2: song from me.
- 43:17Speaker 10: Oh, wow.
- 43:18Speaker 2: I'm just being sarcastic, but he did. He said, so
- 43:21Speaker 2: we did it, knocked it out, put Sean Paul on
- 43:23Speaker 2: that thing. And he was like, man, you already got,
- 43:26Speaker 2: tell me when to go and you in that booty.
- 43:28Speaker 4: I'm going to use this.
- 43:29Speaker 3: For my shit.
- 43:30Speaker 2: I said, man, whatever. We all went in. Let's go.
- 43:32Speaker 2: You know what I mean? But it all, I seen
- 43:34Speaker 2: that every concert, every show. You know what I mean?
- 43:37Speaker 3: I saw a clip that you posted talking about you
- 43:39Speaker 3: being the first male rap artist back in 94 to
- 43:42Speaker 3: sign that $ 3. 5 million distribution deal. How did you, and
- 43:45Speaker 3: you said that it like accumulated more over the years,
- 43:48Speaker 3: but like at that time, You had to click. How
- 43:51Speaker 3: did you know business-wise, this is the number I should
- 43:54Speaker 3: be asking for. It should be distribution versus probably what
- 43:56Speaker 3: they came to you with. How did you know to
- 43:58Speaker 3: even think that way then?
- 44:01Speaker 2: My thinking that way came from my Uncle St. Charles.
- 44:06Speaker 2: His name is Charles Thurman. He's my mama's brother. They
- 44:09Speaker 2: got the same mama, same daddy. It was 11 of them.
- 44:12Speaker 2: Uncle St.
- 44:12Speaker 9: Charles.
- 44:12Speaker 2: You know how everybody call people uncle? That's my blood.
- 44:15Speaker 2: This is my bloodline. He actually, as a young Young Mustache,
- 44:20Speaker 2: I used to just look up to him, you know,
- 44:22Speaker 2: because he's done so much. He's multi-talented music-wise and everything else. Art-wise,
- 44:28Speaker 2: he do, you know, sculpturing, all kind of stuff. So
- 44:31Speaker 2: he made records in the 70s. Like in 72, he
- 44:35Speaker 2: had a record. I think 74, like he already knew
- 44:37Speaker 2: how to do it. So he the one who we always,
- 44:39Speaker 2: when I used to see him, I'm like, St. Charles,
- 44:41Speaker 2: I want to make a record. And he always used
- 44:43Speaker 2: to tell me to come with the, you know, come
- 44:44Speaker 2: with the woo-wopty woo. And you know what I'm saying? So,
- 44:47Speaker 2: you know, one day, so we did it. And when
- 44:49Speaker 2: I came home from Grambling, you know what I mean?
- 44:51Speaker 2: During that one year in college, I came ripped back
- 44:53Speaker 2: to the soil. You understand me? We got us a
- 44:56Speaker 2: clothing line, you know what I'm saying? um, me and
- 44:59Speaker 2: my brother D shot, not a clothing line, a clothing store,
- 45:02Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying? And, um, made a few
- 45:03Speaker 2: dollars with that, ended up working with St. Charles. And, uh,
- 45:07Speaker 2: he was like, bro, this is how you, you gotta,
- 45:09Speaker 2: he taught me how to go get a bank account
- 45:10Speaker 2: and everything. Like way back in the days, like when
- 45:13Speaker 2: I was young, he was like, you gotta get a
- 45:14Speaker 2: bank account. You gotta do this. You gotta know, know
- 45:16Speaker 2: how to do these, um, these consignment sheets. You got,
- 45:19Speaker 2: he taught me what a PO is and, uh, you
- 45:21Speaker 2: know what I'm saying? Uh, cash on delivery, like just
- 45:24Speaker 2: all kinds of stuff. So, We was, you know, before
- 45:28Speaker 2: there was, like, the masterpiece of the world, he was
- 45:31Speaker 2: already doing his thing out in Richmond, California, with us.
- 45:34Speaker 2: We all was out in the Bay hustling, trying to
- 45:36Speaker 2: make it happen, you know, independently. And he came to
- 45:38Speaker 2: my Uncle St. Charles. He seen how we was getting down.
- 45:41Speaker 2: He did his thing. You know, he went and got
- 45:43Speaker 2: them boys from down south. You know what I'm saying?
- 45:45Speaker 2: People on the sticks that appreciate, that actually appreciate when
- 45:50Speaker 2: they get a blessing and an opportunity. California... Not so much.
- 45:53Speaker 2: I had artists that was very, very... Entitled? Yeah, entitled.
- 45:57Speaker 2: And they wanted to quit after one hour. I'm just like, bro,
- 45:59Speaker 2: this is called artist development. You ain't even got no
- 46:01Speaker 2: buzz yet. I'm putting you in the mix like this quick.
- 46:04Speaker 2: You feel me? And so they all thought they was E-40.
- 46:08Speaker 2: Not all of them. One of my favorite artists is
- 46:11Speaker 2: Selly Sale. He's the one who sang, It's going down tonight.
- 46:15Speaker 2: Tonight it's going down. And that just recently went gold.
- 46:19Speaker 2: That's crazy, right? But it was many years ago. But anyway,
- 46:22Speaker 2: to make a long story short and a short story long,
- 46:24Speaker 2: P and many other artists paid attention to that blueprint,
- 46:27Speaker 2: the independent route, and was able to get distribution deals.
- 46:31Speaker 2: So Jive had got at me. P went and got
- 46:33Speaker 2: one at Priority. I had already got one at Jive.
- 46:36Speaker 2: And mine was like a bidding where every... label that
- 46:40Speaker 2: dealt with rap wanted to sign E-40 and Sick with
- 46:42Speaker 2: the Records, The Click. They wanted to sign me and
- 46:44Speaker 2: The Click. You know what I mean? I'm talking about
- 46:46Speaker 2: it was a bit more. Jive Records had My Heroes
- 46:49Speaker 2: over there. They had KRS-One. They had Too Short. You
- 46:54Speaker 2: know what I'm saying? They had Too Short. That's all
- 46:56Speaker 2: you had to say.
- 46:57Speaker 4: You feel me?
- 46:58Speaker 2: You know, they had UGK. They had they had they
- 47:02Speaker 2: had Tribe Called Quest. You know, Shaq was over there.
- 47:07Speaker 2: Shaquille O'Neal. Will Smith was over there, but they had
- 47:11Speaker 2: Spice One.
- 47:13Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 47:13Speaker 2: So I'm like, oh, okay. They know how to deal
- 47:15Speaker 2: with me. They had, um, did I say Souls of Mischief? No.
- 47:18Speaker 2: They had Souls over there. So I was like, okay,
- 47:21Speaker 2: this is something. Barry Wise, you know, he caught me
- 47:23Speaker 2: at the Gavin convention. Ant Banks hooked it up. He said, man,
- 47:26Speaker 2: Barry want to have a meeting with you. So we
- 47:27Speaker 2: went upstairs, me, Chaz Hayes, which was my manager at
- 47:30Speaker 2: the time, and my big bro to this day, you
- 47:33Speaker 2: know what I'm saying? And, um, we all went up there,
- 47:35Speaker 2: me and B-Legit, and, um, We just got to talking,
- 47:38Speaker 2: and we was like, okay, well, let's see. Y'all have
- 47:40Speaker 2: something for us and fly us out. So we flew
- 47:42Speaker 2: out there, man. They made us an offer we can't refuse.
- 47:45Speaker 2: The deal was very unique, very open. I'm talking about
- 47:49Speaker 2: Def Jam. Every label in hip-hop, it was a big
- 47:54Speaker 2: bidding war. The money that they said, it was cool,
- 47:59Speaker 2: but I didn't take a big advancement like that. That
- 48:01Speaker 2: was an advancement. I always remember that's an advancement. It's
- 48:03Speaker 2: hard to recoup an advancement when they can hide certain
- 48:05Speaker 2: s * * * and all that. I'm not saying
- 48:06Speaker 2: that that's what I was thinking of at the time
- 48:09Speaker 2: for them hiding s * * *. It's just the
- 48:11Speaker 2: little the better. You know, you recruit quick and you
- 48:14Speaker 2: ain't got a trip. You know what I mean? You
- 48:16Speaker 2: can monitor s * * * better and all that.
- 48:18Speaker 2: So I've never been one to take big advances. So
- 48:20Speaker 2: the deal was actually more than that at the end
- 48:22Speaker 2: of the day.
- 48:23Speaker 1: You've had major label success and independence, right? Like what's
- 48:26Speaker 1: the part of independence nobody talks about? Everybody love to
- 48:29Speaker 1: say own your masters, but, you know, ownership come with
- 48:31Speaker 1: them expenses. You know what I mean? You got to
- 48:33Speaker 1: pay for the infrastructure.
- 48:34Speaker 14: Right.
- 48:34Speaker 4: You got to know how to write the invoice, too.
- 48:36Speaker 2: I got a distribution right now, distribution deal right now
- 48:40Speaker 2: with Virgin, and I've been with them since 2009, 2010.
- 48:43Speaker 2: The first one, I took an advancement because I was
- 48:46Speaker 2: coming off of the little John situation. So I took
- 48:51Speaker 2: a small advancement just to get there. And then after that,
- 48:54Speaker 2: I never took advancement ever again.
- 48:56Speaker 15: Wow.
- 48:57Speaker 2: I pay for all my, I pay for all the producers.
- 48:59Speaker 2: I pay for production. I pay for videos. They don't
- 49:01Speaker 2: pay for nothing. Nathan. And I done had successful albums.
- 49:06Speaker 2: That's what you call a major distribution. That's what you call,
- 49:09Speaker 2: I got a major distributor, but I'm still independent. You
- 49:13Speaker 2: know what I mean? I won't tell the times, but
- 49:15Speaker 2: the chunk of the money, the chunk of the amount
- 49:17Speaker 2: and percentage that I get is groovy like a drive-in movie.
- 49:20Speaker 3: That Diamond record, that's probably a crazy kickback.
- 49:22Speaker 2: You talking about the big shop?
- 49:24Speaker 4: Yes.
- 49:24Speaker 2: Want me to tell you how that unfolded?
- 49:26Speaker 6: Please.
- 49:26Speaker 3: Yes, do.
- 49:27Speaker 2: For me being solid, not salad, because I'm one of
- 49:30Speaker 2: them dudes if I f * * * with you,
- 49:31Speaker 2: I f * * * you heavy and I'm going
- 49:33Speaker 2: to keep, I'm going to stay in contact with you.
- 49:34Speaker 2: I'm going to hit you from time to time. Just
- 49:36Speaker 2: check on your well-beings. You know what I'm saying? That
- 49:38Speaker 2: type of s * * *. So I'll just I
- 49:40Speaker 2: didn't even want none. I'm in the Stisnudio. Me, Cousin Feek,
- 49:43Speaker 2: my cousin Work Baby. We all in there, motherf * * * er.
- 49:45Speaker 2: I'm just like, we already working. I'm working on it.
- 49:47Speaker 2: I stay in the Stisnudio. And I just say, I'm
- 49:50Speaker 2: going to call Big Sean. So I just called him
- 49:52Speaker 2: out of nowhere. I was drinking and s * * *.
- 49:54Speaker 2: And I hit him out of nowhere. He just said,
- 49:56Speaker 2: he said, Big Homie, what's happening? He was in the
- 49:59Speaker 2: Stisnudio on one, right? And he was like, God, it's
- 50:03Speaker 2: ironic you called Big Homie. Got one for us. I
- 50:08Speaker 2: got one.
- 50:09Speaker 4: Look at God, man.
- 50:10Speaker 5: Right?
- 50:11Speaker 15: He say, he say, but this gotta be the dopest
- 50:15Speaker 15: 16 bars you ever did in your life.
- 50:17Speaker 2: I say, let's send that bitch over. So he sent it.
- 50:22Speaker 2: I branched that night and the hook was already there.
- 50:26Speaker 2: The song was done. When he sent it to me,
- 50:29Speaker 2: all I had to do was make like an application
- 50:32Speaker 2: and And fill in the blanks. You know, all I
- 50:34Speaker 2: had to do was just fill in the blanks like
- 50:36Speaker 2: an application. You know what I'm saying? And that's what
- 50:38Speaker 2: I did. I put my verse in there and that
- 50:40Speaker 2: was it. It was already designed. It was already out
- 50:42Speaker 2: of here. And we got a diamond. record, bro. I
- 50:46Speaker 2: seen some comments on a few blogs and they was like,
- 50:48Speaker 2: it's about time. What took you so long? And I'm like,
- 50:51Speaker 2: do you understand what diamond mean? That mean a million
- 50:56Speaker 2: ten times, dummy.
- 50:59Speaker 3: It's because they look at how big y'all celebrity is.
- 51:02Speaker 3: They don't know. They just see E-40's huge. Big Sean
- 51:07Speaker 3: is huge. That was a big song. Boom. You don't
- 51:10Speaker 3: really get it until you look at it. You're like, damn,
- 51:12Speaker 3: that's a lot of.
- 51:13Speaker 4: diamond songs in the history of music it's.
- 51:16Speaker 2: Not a lot and so Sean made big sense with
- 51:19Speaker 2: this and he said it pretty much because I think
- 51:22Speaker 2: we put it out in 2014 2015 2015 yeah so
- 51:24Speaker 2: how many years is that it's 11 11 he said
- 51:27Speaker 2: it pretty much went platinum every year yeah think about
- 51:31Speaker 2: that yeah I know.
- 51:32Speaker 3: You've been with your wife for a really long time
- 51:34Speaker 3: how much of her being in your life as you're
- 51:37Speaker 3: building all this kind of helped that mindset as well
- 51:39Speaker 3: too like gotta stay ready gotta invest my money turn
- 51:41Speaker 3: my money over Man, that.
- 51:43Speaker 2: Woman is incredible. We met in high school in band.
- 51:47Speaker 2: She played the clarinet at Vallejo Junior. I played the
- 51:50Speaker 2: drums at Franklin Junior High. You know, with her having
- 51:53Speaker 2: my back, you know, she didn't know. I wasn't even
- 51:56Speaker 2: famous at that time. I was popular, but I wasn't
- 51:59Speaker 2: famous like, oh, he's going to make it. I really wasn't.
- 52:03Speaker 2: I didn't know. And she just stood there with me, man,
- 52:06Speaker 2: and allowed me to go out there.
- 52:09Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 52:09Speaker 2: And, you know, put food on the table. You know,
- 52:12Speaker 2: a lot of women, it's damn if you do, damn
- 52:14Speaker 2: if you don't. Like, if you're not spending quality time,
- 52:17Speaker 2: you know, you get scrutinized for that. If you're spending
- 52:22Speaker 2: too much time, it's like, you know, go get some money.
- 52:25Speaker 2: So sometimes I get some money and how I'm gonna
- 52:28Speaker 2: get money if you're making me spend this quality time.
- 52:30Speaker 2: And then, and if you don't make no money, you
- 52:32Speaker 2: need to, you know what I'm saying? It's, it's, it's,
- 52:34Speaker 2: it's tricky. So anyway, but she was always right there.
- 52:37Speaker 2: You know, she, she, she was right there. Me going
- 52:39Speaker 2: into one of the best things I can do when I,
- 52:42Speaker 2: when I, when I built, when I built my, when
- 52:43Speaker 2: I built my first house, I made sure, you know,
- 52:47Speaker 2: I got, I made a studio in there. I made
- 52:49Speaker 2: sure we had that. So I ain't got to, all
- 52:51Speaker 2: I do is hire an engineer and pay him. what
- 52:55Speaker 2: I would actually pay them if I was doing studio
- 52:57Speaker 2: time at they studio in Oakland or wherever I'm at.
- 53:00Speaker 2: I was like, I'm gonna pay you what I would
- 53:02Speaker 2: actually pay you, but you gonna come here and I'm

- 53:22Speaker 1: Let's hear what Shaw said.
- 53:25Speaker 15: 840, I swear to God, I've been knowing this brother
- 53:27Speaker 15: my entire adult life.
- 53:29Speaker 4: The show is over.
- 53:32Speaker 15: We playing dominoes, we talking, playing cards. E-40 is like,
- 53:35Speaker 15: do not bring them around me. Don't bring them in
- 53:38Speaker 15: my room. I got no conversation for them. That like,
- 53:42Speaker 15: I love my wife. When he was a young, like
- 53:46Speaker 15: rock star status, he's like, I ain't thinking about these
- 53:48Speaker 15: out here.
- 53:49Speaker 4: And that's just been his thing.
- 53:51Speaker 1: How did you have that emotional intelligence so young? It's
- 53:53Speaker 1: like you learned early, what so much of us learned late.
- 53:55Speaker 2: My granddaddy and grandmama, they had 11 kids. They was
- 53:59Speaker 2: together till they died. My granddaddy was a preacher. My
- 54:03Speaker 2: grandmama was the mother of the church. I grew up
- 54:04Speaker 2: in a church house. They taught me morals and respect.
- 54:07Speaker 2: When you find a good one, you better keep her.
- 54:08Speaker 2: A lot of cats, a lot of good ones go
- 54:10Speaker 2: right past them. A lot of good ones really love
- 54:13Speaker 2: the hell out of them. I have partners, they love
- 54:15Speaker 2: the hell out of them. And they would have been loyal.
- 54:17Speaker 2: And they're going to get somebody that's not even cool.
- 54:20Speaker 2: You feel me?
- 54:21Speaker 4: But rest in peace to Tupac.
- 54:23Speaker 1: It's been 30 years since Tupac passed this year. You
- 54:25Speaker 1: actually knew Pac in real life. Like, not the mythical
- 54:28Speaker 1: figure that we talk about. Like, you knew him for real.
- 54:31Speaker 1: What do people who never knew Pac fundamentally misunderstand about
- 54:35Speaker 1: who he was?
- 54:35Speaker 2: Every time somebody asks me that, I say, if he
- 54:38Speaker 2: like you, he love you. He was loyal. And he
- 54:42Speaker 2: was a player, the way he dressed, the way he
- 54:45Speaker 2: carried himself. You know what I'm saying? Real top hat.
- 54:48Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Far from a sucker. Really
- 54:51Speaker 2: born in it. You know, his mom was Black Panther
- 54:54Speaker 2: like crazy. You know, one of the I feel he's
- 54:57Speaker 2: a goat, you know, because the way I sat there
- 54:59Speaker 2: and watch him write, man, like I've been in this
- 55:01Speaker 2: studio with him a few times where he just go
- 55:04Speaker 2: in there, take 10, 15 minutes and just don't even
- 55:07Speaker 2: think twice about it. Once you do it, don't go
- 55:09Speaker 2: in there to adjust any words. And then it's just done.
- 55:12Speaker 2: And it'd be a plus every time. Being from the
- 55:15Speaker 2: Bay Area, we always felt he was one of ours.
- 55:17Speaker 2: You know, they try to say he's not from the Bay,
- 55:19Speaker 2: but that's where he learned his game from. That's what
- 55:22Speaker 2: gave him the swag. That's what, you know what I mean? Like,
- 55:25Speaker 2: in the Bay, we naturally pop our, you know, that's
- 55:27Speaker 2: one of the things I popularized, right? Popping your collar, too.
- 55:29Speaker 2: That's another thing.
- 55:30Speaker 4: Pop would have been in Mount Westmore? Definitely.
- 55:33Speaker 2: Definitely. Pox, man, GOAT, bro. For real. And people know that.
- 55:39Speaker 2: A lot of people, some people really disrespect Pac. They
- 55:42Speaker 2: be like, you know, man, he was weak. How is
- 55:44Speaker 2: he weak, bro? Come on, man. That man uplifted females
- 55:48Speaker 2: and males. uplifted females, bruh. Keep your head up. Brenda's
- 55:52Speaker 2: got a baby. Like, told people to stay positive. He
- 55:55Speaker 2: was for... That man talk crazy about politics and, like,
- 55:58Speaker 2: he really meant something. You feel me? I mean, he
- 56:01Speaker 2: did so much in so little time. That man died
- 56:03Speaker 2: at 25. Man was in movies, theater.
- 56:06Speaker 4: I mean, just.
- 56:06Speaker 2: poets he did you know poetry he did like he
- 56:10Speaker 2: did everything man uh i remember um him wanting to
- 56:13Speaker 2: be wanting to put a restaurant together he hit me

- 56:27Speaker 2: you know what i mean ah damn that would have
- 56:29Speaker 2: been dope too.
- 56:30Speaker 1: Great the cafe would have been great yeah This is
- 56:34Speaker 1: my last question. You spent decades teaching people how to
- 56:36Speaker 1: get money, right? But at this point in your life,
- 56:38Speaker 1: what have you learned? About the things money can't fix.
- 56:41Speaker 2: Money can't unsucker you. If you're a sucker, you're just
- 56:43Speaker 2: a sucker. I've been feeling like, man, there's only seven
- 56:49Speaker 2: real motherfuckers on this earth.
- 56:51Speaker 4: Damn.
- 56:52Speaker 2: I know I'm one of them. Whoever the other six
- 56:53Speaker 2: identify yourself.
- 56:54Speaker 3: I feel like.
- 56:57Speaker 2: I've been feeling like, you know, there's so many suckers
- 56:59Speaker 2: nowadays that they sucking up the earth's oxygen. That's why
- 57:02Speaker 2: we got global warming.
- 57:04Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
- 57:05Speaker 2: I think that.
- 57:06Speaker 3: You might have just solved that for all the people
- 57:07Speaker 3: that be on the hill yelling.
- 57:09Speaker 2: Come on.
- 57:09Speaker 3: You know they be down there in D.C.
- 57:12Speaker 1: I think it's the internet. The internet created a safe
- 57:15Speaker 1: space for suckers.
- 57:16Speaker 2: I was talking to Tushy. He said, man, we probably
- 57:20Speaker 2: could have did without the internet.
- 57:21Speaker 5: I said, I know.
- 57:23Speaker 2: Wasn't we doing fine?
- 57:24Speaker 4: We didn't need that.

- 57:49Speaker 3: Oh my God, yes. He talking so... I love the
- 57:51Speaker 3: way he talk.
- 57:52Speaker 16: Everything is like a riddle.
- 57:53Speaker 3: Yes.
- 57:54Speaker 10: Girl.
- 57:55Speaker 4: And it's time for the latest with Lauren LaRosa. Talk
- 57:59Speaker 4: to me.
- 58:21Speaker 3: So Tyler Perry, we've been talking a bit about earlier
- 58:24Speaker 3: this morning. I've been teasing and telling you guys that
- 58:26Speaker 3: he did something amazing for up-and-coming creators in the television space.
- 58:31Speaker 3: So what he's doing, he launched a film distribution arm
- 58:34Speaker 3: called Max Scene. So it's spelled M-A-X Scene, like in scene,
- 58:39Speaker 3: in honor of his mom. Her name is Maxine. So
- 58:43Speaker 3: he says that he launched this in honor of his
- 58:45Speaker 3: mother because she was one of the people who believed
- 58:47Speaker 3: in him before anybody else did. And that belief is
- 58:50Speaker 3: the reason why he never stopped chasing his path. He
- 58:53Speaker 3: says his new distribution arm, Maxine, exists to do that
- 58:56Speaker 3: as a source of belief for the next generation of storytellers.
- 58:58Speaker 3: It's about taking the confidence and encouragement that his mom
- 59:01Speaker 3: poured into him and paying it forward by championing filmmakers
- 59:04Speaker 3: who need someone to believe in them, open the door
- 59:06Speaker 3: and help them reach the audience waiting on the other side.
- 59:09Speaker 4: What about that money?
- 59:10Speaker 15: Though?
- 59:10Speaker 4: He providing some funding too?
- 59:11Speaker 3: So here's what he plans to do. From what I
- 59:14Speaker 3: can see, the announcement was kind of like brief, but
- 59:16Speaker 3: I looked up what can Tyler Perry do with this
- 59:18Speaker 3: distribution arm that he could not just do as a studio. Um,
- 59:21Speaker 3: so his studio traditionally focused on Tyler Perry's own masses
- 59:24Speaker 3: output of play shows and films, but as a distribution label,
- 59:27Speaker 3: he can acquire and release independent films from outside in
- 59:31Speaker 3: up and coming storytellers who lack the muscle to reach
- 59:33Speaker 3: the theater. So there will have to be a financial
- 59:34Speaker 3: arm in that, uh, it cuts out the middleman. So
- 59:36Speaker 3: instead of relying on, um, an outside legacy distributor like
- 59:40Speaker 3: Alliance gate or Netflix or whoever else to green light
- 59:42Speaker 3: and market external projects, uh, his dedicated arm lets him
- 59:45Speaker 3: curate and push these releases directly right from Tyler Perry's
- 59:50Speaker 3: And then, you know, owning physical stages controls production costs.
- 59:53Speaker 3: And we know that he has those stages down at
- 59:54Speaker 3: Tyler Perry Studios. But controlling the distribution means that he
- 59:59Speaker 3: can keep a wider slice of the revenue that's coming
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: back in. So I think that he'll be able to
- 1:00:04Speaker 3: filter that through the creators as well, too. So it
- 1:00:06Speaker 3: just seems like he'll be able to empower people more
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: directly and have more of a say on what is
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: greenlit and what goes out, especially for up-and-coming filmmakers that
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: he's discovering.
- 1:00:16Speaker 4: Well, salute to that brother Tyler Perry, man.
- 1:00:17Speaker 3: He's always doing something.
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: That is a fact.
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: Employing people.
- 1:00:20Speaker 4: Whether you realize.
- 1:00:21Speaker 14: It or not.
- 1:00:22Speaker 3: I was about to say, I don't think people realize.
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: We know Tyler Perry is big and it's Tyler Perry,
- 1:00:28Speaker 3: but I don't know if people realize how.
- 1:00:30Speaker 4: How many black people he employs? How many black people
- 1:00:32Speaker 4: he keeps working?
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: But how many black people don't have a studio? The
- 1:00:36Speaker 3: distribution arm is now attached to a studio. Like, this
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: is a major deal, especially because we talk a lot about, like,
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: what we don't see... anymore as much across like black
- 1:00:45Speaker 3: television right and i feel like right now that we're
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: kind of getting back to like i saw coco jones
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: and her announcement she's getting a hillary spinoff uh from
- 1:00:53Speaker 3: the bel-air series that she was in um.
- 1:00:55Speaker 4: Because nbc gave her that spinoff yeah.
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: But just seeing black people on television in these series
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: and these like you know you can turn it on
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: and you're watching these episodic, you know, things.
- 1:01:03Speaker 4: I hear everything you're saying, but you know why we
- 1:01:05Speaker 4: see so many black people on TV?
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: Tyler Perry.
- 1:01:07Speaker 4: Over the years? Exactly.
- 1:01:08Speaker 3: Exactly, yes. And speaking of seeing black people on TV,
- 1:01:11Speaker 3: Beauty and the Black is coming back, Netflix.
- 1:01:13Speaker 4: That's Tyler Perry too, right?
- 1:01:14Speaker 3: Yes, that's Tyler Perry. That's the one you like because
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: they used to be talking about the, what was the
- 1:01:18Speaker 3: line he used to always say about Beauty and the Black?
- 1:01:20Speaker 3: Remember Charles, Horace, all them?
- 1:01:21Speaker 5: No, no, no.
- 1:01:22Speaker 3: It was the one with the butt.
- 1:01:23Speaker 4: The horny gay old man?
- 1:01:24Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:01:25Speaker 4: That's it.
- 1:01:25Speaker 3: I forget. Attorney Vonnie. It was something you used to
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: always talk about. And he was like, you can't walk
- 1:01:31Speaker 3: away from this ass or something like that. You know
- 1:01:32Speaker 3: your ass ass.
- 1:01:33Speaker 4: No, that wasn't Beauty and the Black.
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: That was Beauty and the Black.
- 1:01:35Speaker 14: Yes.
- 1:01:35Speaker 4: When he dropped his pants, he was like, you gonna
- 1:01:37Speaker 4: walk away from all of that?
- 1:01:37Speaker 3: Yeah, yes. Because that was Charles who said that the
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: Attorney Vonnie period is coming back, y'all, for tuning on
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: Netflix Beauty and the Black, baby. Thank you, Tyler. Yeah,

- 1:03:45Speaker 3: the latest for the hour. And in the next latest.
- 1:03:48Speaker 3: We are going to get into some conversation about what
- 1:03:51Speaker 3: we're going to see more of from Dolly Parton. Even
- 1:03:53Speaker 3: though we know she is not here any longer, she
- 1:03:55Speaker 3: had a plan in place. She hired a team. So
- 1:03:57Speaker 3: there will be some new projects that will be coming
- 1:04:00Speaker 3: from under her estate. Okay. Thank you. Got you. And
- 1:04:04Speaker 3: coming up next, Just Fix My Mess. If you haven't...
- 1:04:06Speaker 3: That's not what's coming up next. That is what's coming up. Oh,
- 1:04:08Speaker 3: my God. Who you getting your donkey to?
- 1:04:09Speaker 10: Yes.
- 1:04:10Speaker 4: I'm so sorry, Charlamagne. After donkey.
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: Donkey of the day, man. This is a lesson that
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: black people need to learn. We got to stop using
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: things as identifiers for people.
- 1:04:21Speaker 8: What?
- 1:04:21Speaker 16: I'm like, okay, okay, bundles.
- 1:04:23Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
- 1:04:24Speaker 4: Okay, show me.
- 1:04:25Speaker 3: Whenever she come in.
- 1:04:26Speaker 4: Okay, veneers.
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: Yes, I was telling you baggy jeans the other day
- 1:04:29Speaker 3: all day.
- 1:04:30Speaker 4: I know, but we got to stop. And this is
- 1:04:31Speaker 4: a great example why.
- 1:04:32Speaker 13: Why?
- 1:04:33Speaker 4: We'll discuss.
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: I need the staff of the Blue Hudson Restaurant in Weehawken,
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: New Jersey to come to the front of the congregation.
- 1:04:39Speaker 4: We'd like to have a word with them.
- 1:04:40Speaker 3: Oh, Lord. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: Good morning.
- 1:04:44Speaker 4: It's time for donkey of the day. There's a bunch
- 1:04:46Speaker 4: of donkeys out here. Call donkey of the day.
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: It really caught me off guard.
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: We live a life where we bite our tongue based
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: off who we may offend. We never would say anything.
- 1:04:58Speaker 4: You are a donkey.
- 1:05:01Speaker 3: That is why Charlemagne is here.
- 1:05:04Speaker 4: Some donkey of the day just saw themselves.
- 1:05:06Speaker 2: On The Breakfast Club.
- 1:05:07Speaker 4: Okay, Chalamet, who are we giving donkey of the day
- 1:05:09Speaker 4: to today? Donkey of the day.
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: For Thursday, August 27th, goes to a diner in New
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: Jersey called Blue on the Hudson. Blue is in Weehawken,
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: New Jersey. And the headline that caught my attention this
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: morning came from the New York Post, and it said,
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: NJ Diner outraged after upscale restaurant serves her dessert with
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: offensive message. Now, we live in an era where everyone
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: is so easily offended. And personally, I don't get offended easily,
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: but I have offended people. OK, not on purpose, sometimes
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: on purpose, but that's not always my intention.
- 1:05:40Speaker 4: But I have. So when it comes to people being offended,
- 1:05:45Speaker 4: oftentimes I'm.
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: Like, here we go again. OK, but I will be
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: honest with you. I can see why this person is offended. OK, see,
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: the victim's name is an Antony Sinbaldi. Drop on the
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: clues bombs for Antony Sinbaldi. Happy belated born day, Antony.
- 1:05:58Speaker 4: She's 29 years.
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: And she was celebrating her 29th born day, and she
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: ordered an apple tart tatin for dessert. I don't even
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: know what the hell that is, okay? I know what
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: an apple tart is. I don't know what the tatin is.
- 1:06:08Speaker 4: What's a tatin? Anybody know?
- 1:06:09Speaker 3: I don't know, but blue food is good, though.
- 1:06:11Speaker 4: Oh, you've been there before?
- 1:06:12Speaker 3: That's my spot.
- 1:06:13Speaker 4: Yeah, they say it's upscale.
- 1:06:14Speaker 3: Oh, my God, it's so good. The steak and the
- 1:06:15Speaker 3: drinks is amazing.
- 1:06:16Speaker 14: All right.
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: Well, there was a happy birthday message on Antoni's plate.
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: Let's go to CBS News for the report, please.
- 1:06:23Speaker 19: It's the birthday memory Antonia Sinabaldi was not expecting to make.
- 1:06:27Speaker 19: It was back on June 20th when she, along with
- 1:06:30Speaker 19: friends and family, went out to celebrate her 29th birthday
- 1:06:33Speaker 19: at the restaurant Blue on the Hudson in Weehawken. Sinabaldi,
- 1:06:37Speaker 19: who is a singer-songwriter, was diagnosed with a cervical cancer.
- 1:06:40Speaker 19: spinal injury when she was two years old, the result
- 1:06:43Speaker 19: of a car accident involving a drunk driver. She has
- 1:06:46Speaker 19: relied on a motorized wheelchair and ventilator for most of
- 1:06:50Speaker 19: her life. On this evening in June, when it was
- 1:06:52Speaker 19: time for dessert, she was served a message that was
- 1:06:55Speaker 19: far from sweet. What it said was happy birthday wheelchair,
- 1:07:00Speaker 19: a message that stunned the table and the birthday girl.
- 1:07:03Speaker 3: Just me by surprise.
- 1:07:06Speaker 11: I shouldn't be my idea of something that I already know.
- 1:07:10Speaker 19: In a statement to CBS News New York, a spokesperson
- 1:07:12Speaker 19: for Blue on the Hudson said management was deeply saddened
- 1:07:15Speaker 19: by what occurred, apologizing for what it describes as an
- 1:07:19Speaker 19: unfortunate mistake, saying in part the word wheelchair was used
- 1:07:23Speaker 19: as a reference to identify where a birthday dessert with
- 1:07:26Speaker 19: a candle should be delivered. Unfortunately, that notation was misunderstood
- 1:07:31Speaker 19: and was written on the plate itself. There was absolutely
- 1:07:34Speaker 19: no malicious or disrespectful intent behind that notation.
- 1:07:38Speaker 2: Don't bring my disability in every sentence.
- 1:07:43Speaker 3: I want people to know.
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: Now, full disclosure, because God knows my heart, okay? God
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: knows Jess Hilarious' heart, too, all right? I just need
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: to be transparent for myself. I completely understand why whoever
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: did this deserves donkey of the day. That's why I'm
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: giving it to them. But boy, I find this hilarious. OK,
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: this was so unnecessary yet so funny. OK, poor Antonia,
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: as you just heard, has used the wheelchairs and she
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: was two years old. OK, suffered a spinal injury in
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: a car accident involving a drunk driver.
- 1:08:14Speaker 4: That's why you shouldn't drink and drive. She just out
- 1:08:16Speaker 4: there wanting to enjoy her 29 years of life.
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: Beautiful birthday dinner surrounded by friends and family. Then dessert
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: comes out and written on her plate. happy birthday wheelchair.
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: You might as well have had the bottle girls come
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: out with the sparklers and the big ass sign that
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: said happy birthday handicapped.
- 1:08:31Speaker 4: Okay?
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: What kind of birthday greeting is happy... a birthday wheelchair
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: okay who would do this all right what if this
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: person had down syndrome what if they had a lazy
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: eye what if they had alopecia okay and i don't
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: know who in the restaurant did this but it's a
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: good chance if i had to use the process of
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: elimination they were black okay because this is how we
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: talk we'd be like OK, wheelchair.
- 1:08:57Speaker 7: All right.
- 1:08:57Speaker 4: OK, shoulder pads.
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: We will reduce people to whatever it is they are
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: in the moment. Happy birthday, ball head. Happy birthday, ringworm. OK,
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: happy birthday, CPAP machine.
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:09:10Speaker 4: You can't just.
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: Start identifying people by whatever distinguishing characteristic features.
- 1:09:15Speaker 4: You noticed when they walked in, okay?
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: And I'm mad at myself that I find human error
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: so funny because the blue restaurant says they weren't making
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: fun of Antonia.
- 1:09:24Speaker 4: And I don't think they were either, okay?
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: They say wheelchair was written on the ticket so employees
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: would know who the birthday dessert was for.
- 1:09:30Speaker 4: I totally understand them, okay? But you're not supposed to
- 1:09:33Speaker 4: write this stuff down. These are the things we're supposed
- 1:09:36Speaker 4: to say to each other. Okay, hey, shorty in the wheelchair,
- 1:09:39Speaker 4: it's her birthday, all right?
- 1:09:40Speaker 6: Bet.
- 1:09:41Speaker 4: You can't write wheelchair on the ticket, though.
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: All right?
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: There's people out there in restaurants who communicate like this
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: all the time. Hey, bald head dude, red shirt, order
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: the steak medium. Fat dude in the Yankee hat, order
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: the Diet Coke.
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: I don't know why.
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: Those type of identifiers are fine amongst each other. But
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: somewhere between the ticket and Antonio's table, wires got crossed,
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: people got too comfortable, and somebody saw the word wheelchair
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: and decided to write.
- 1:10:05Speaker 4: It in chocolate sauce. Okay? Why? Why? You know that's
- 1:10:09Speaker 4: not her name.
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: Okay, see, y'all just like Target with the minstrel show, okay,
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: with the minstrel show clown suit, all right? That order
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: and plate went through too many hands for someone not
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: to catch this, and that's why y'all getting donkey of
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: the day.
- 1:10:21Speaker 4: And I don't want the people fired. I want them studied. Okay?
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: Because at no point while you were beautifully piping the
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: word wheelchair onto this woman's birthday plate, did your brain
- 1:10:31Speaker 1: tap you on the shoulder and say, hey, quick question, bruh.
- 1:10:34Speaker 4: F you do it.
- 1:10:35Speaker 14: Okay?
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: They had several opportunities to abort this mission. You saw
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: the ticket. You got the plate. You picked up the sauce.
- 1:10:41Speaker 4: You wrote happy. Okay? You wrote birthday. Then you started
- 1:10:45Speaker 4: writing wheel. Okay?
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: Your brain didn't send up one flare yet. Not even
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: around the second E. By the time you got the chair...
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: Somebody should have knew what the hell was up. OK,
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: somebody somebody had to come pick that plate up. Another
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: human being. They didn't look down and say, what the hell? OK,
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: they looked at a woman sitting in a wheelchair, looked
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: down at the plate that said happy.
- 1:11:05Speaker 4: Birthday wheelchair and said here, here.
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: OK, you wrote happy wheelchair birthday and salted caramel. And
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: not once did your brain say stop. Look, I don't
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: believe every terrible mistake comes from a terrible heart. You know,
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: sometimes nobody is malicious. Sometimes nobody is hateful. Sometimes people
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: just dumb as hell. And that's what Donkey of the.
- 1:11:28Speaker 4: Day is for. Please give the folks at the Blue,
- 1:11:30Speaker 4: at the Hudson, the sweet sounds and the hammer tones.
- 1:11:33Speaker 12: Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You
- 1:11:40Speaker 12: are the donkey of the day.
- 1:11:44Speaker 3: Yee-haw. I know they was black.
- 1:11:51Speaker 10: I know, I know.
- 1:11:53Speaker 4: And our culture don't translate to everybody.
- 1:11:55Speaker 3: And that's a long-ass word, wheelchair. You know what I'm saying?
- 1:11:58Speaker 3: By the time you got to the second E, then
- 1:12:00Speaker 3: the chair, like, yo, what's up with you?
- 1:12:02Speaker 4: They didn't mean nothing by it.
- 1:12:04Speaker 3: Was she black? Because they probably thought that she was
- 1:12:06Speaker 3: going to be cool.
- 1:12:07Speaker 6: No, she wasn't.
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: They didn't mean nothing by it. That's how they was
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: talking amongst each other to her.
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: Yeah, but why would you write that in chocolate?
- 1:12:13Speaker 4: It's just a brain lapse.
- 1:12:16Speaker 10: Wow, bro.
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: This is why AI is going to take over because
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: we already moving like robots.
- 1:12:20Speaker 4: We don't got to.
- 1:12:20Speaker 3: Stop going there though, right? Are they all black that
- 1:12:23Speaker 3: weren't there long?
- 1:12:24Speaker 4: No. They not?
- 1:12:24Speaker 3: No. It's far in between of us there, but the
- 1:12:27Speaker 3: food is really, it's good.
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: People in wheelchairs might feel it. People in wheelchairs might
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: feel it.
- 1:12:33Speaker 3: It ain't rolling up no more. It ain't coming in there, man.
- 1:12:36Speaker 3: I would definitely say something the next time I'm there,
- 1:12:38Speaker 3: but I just need to make sure I can still go. Okay, wheelchair.
- 1:12:41Speaker 4: Happy birthday, wheelchair.
- 1:12:43Speaker 3: And then you bring it out and sit it down
- 1:12:44Speaker 3: and you like right there saying happy birthday. So like
- 1:12:46Speaker 3: the family like, hold up.
- 1:12:48Speaker 1: They was calling her wheelchair all night from the time
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: she walked in.
- 1:12:52Speaker 4: I mean, you know what I mean.
- 1:12:53Speaker 3: The people that weren't there. Not the time she walked in.
- 1:12:56Speaker 4: She walked in.
- 1:12:57Speaker 13: God.
- 1:12:58Speaker 4: Say thank you, please.

- 1:13:14Speaker 1: your issues.
- 1:13:14Speaker 4: Okay. It's the world's most dangerous morning show to breakfast.
- 1:13:18Speaker 6: It's the real deal.
- 1:13:20Speaker 18: Help me.
- 1:13:21Speaker 3: Help me.
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
- 1:13:23Speaker 3: I'm all up in your mess. I'm going to fix it.
- 1:13:25Speaker 16: Fix it.
- 1:13:27Speaker 3: Fix it.
- 1:13:27Speaker 16: Fix it.
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: Just going to fix your mess because my advice is real. Hello,
- 1:13:32Speaker 3: who's this?
- 1:13:33Speaker 19: Hey, Jess.
- 1:13:34Speaker 5: This is Tierra.
- 1:13:36Speaker 3: Good morning, Tierra. What's your problem, B?
- 1:13:38Speaker 15: What's up?
- 1:13:39Speaker 5: Okay, so me and my best friend, we've been friends
- 1:13:41Speaker 5: for going on like 20 years since we were 16.
- 1:13:43Speaker 5: Like in the beginning, this was like Latina. It was
- 1:13:48Speaker 5: like to the point where she would get mad if
- 1:13:50Speaker 5: I get other friends. But I was like in our
- 1:13:53Speaker 5: younger days, like in our 20s. So over time, we
- 1:13:56Speaker 5: did still get together. I'd be there for her. When
- 1:13:59Speaker 5: I'm not the type to be there for her, I
- 1:14:01Speaker 5: be there for her for advice. If he going to some, like,
- 1:14:04Speaker 5: to need some money, like, I don't do her baby showers. Like,
- 1:14:08Speaker 5: I'm a real friend. Like, I'm locked in. But with her,
- 1:14:12Speaker 5: it's more of she's just there for advice.
- 1:14:15Speaker 9: I don't really got.
- 1:14:16Speaker 5: It like that to be there for me financially or
- 1:14:20Speaker 5: if I needed something. But that's fine. I'm not looking
- 1:14:22Speaker 5: for none of that. I'm just looking for a friendship.
- 1:14:24Speaker 15: Right.
- 1:14:25Speaker 5: So she's been in relationships. I've been in relationships. She
- 1:14:28Speaker 5: starts to treat me weird or cut me off when
- 1:14:31Speaker 5: she feel like my relationship not going how she expect
- 1:14:36Speaker 5: for it to go, I guess. I guess she want
- 1:14:38Speaker 5: better for me. So she don't be understanding why I
- 1:14:41Speaker 5: go through some of the things that I go through.
- 1:14:43Speaker 5: So when I see a sticky situation in my relationship,
- 1:14:46Speaker 5: it's like, oh, I can't deal with you no more.
- 1:14:48Speaker 5: I don't want to deal with your mess.
- 1:14:50Speaker 15: And it's like.
- 1:14:51Speaker 5: Her relationship isn't about a person either. And I'm not
- 1:14:54Speaker 5: in a friendship with you because of who you with.
- 1:14:56Speaker 5: I'm in a friendship with you because you're my friend
- 1:14:58Speaker 5: and I like you and I love you.
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:15:01Speaker 5: So, I just don't understand, like, should I keep caring
- 1:15:05Speaker 5: about her, doing that for her, like I said, financially, advice,
- 1:15:10Speaker 5: a real friend to her when she's not reciprocated. But
- 1:15:12Speaker 5: I love this girl. Like, we've been friends for almost
- 1:15:15Speaker 5: 20 years, so it's just hard.
- 1:15:16Speaker 10: For me to let her go.
- 1:15:17Speaker 6: Yeah, no.
- 1:15:18Speaker 5: Even though she's treating me wrong.
- 1:15:20Speaker 3: Yeah, I do understand. I think that it seems like
- 1:15:25Speaker 3: a variety of things. There's not just the fact that
- 1:15:29Speaker 3: she doesn't reciprocate the things that you do for her
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: financially and things like that. Because you just said you
- 1:15:36Speaker 3: don't really care about that part of it. But when
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: it comes to something that you have, like one of
- 1:15:41Speaker 3: your relationships, and she doesn't like who you're with or whatever...
- 1:15:45Speaker 3: She just falls back like, look, I'm not even going to,
- 1:15:47Speaker 3: because I don't want to deal with that. I don't
- 1:15:49Speaker 3: want to deal with you. Listen, you got to think
- 1:15:52Speaker 3: of it as another way you can think about.
- 1:15:54Speaker 8: It, right?
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: This your girl. I know she loves you just like
- 1:15:58Speaker 3: you love her, although she don't really show it on
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: the financially, my bad. You probably attract ain't-ish guys, you
- 1:16:06Speaker 3: know what I mean? And I've seen this before. Like,
- 1:16:09Speaker 3: I've seen this before, and I've seen friends fall out.
- 1:16:14Speaker 3: When one gets in a relationship and she keeps taking
- 1:16:16Speaker 3: the dude back or she let a dude change her.
- 1:16:19Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Like, well, she changes herself,
- 1:16:22Speaker 3: you know, for the guy, you know? And the people
- 1:16:24Speaker 3: around you, that affects them because they see you differently
- 1:16:26Speaker 3: and you treat them differently, you know? You're not yourself
- 1:16:31Speaker 3: the same bubbly, charming person you are because you got
- 1:16:33Speaker 3: this dude around. He don't allow that side of you
- 1:16:37Speaker 3: to come out, you know?
- 1:16:38Speaker 13: So.
- 1:16:39Speaker 3: It could be that. And I know you said her
- 1:16:41Speaker 3: relationships ain't perfect either. You know what I mean? But
- 1:16:44Speaker 3: she's reacting differently than you. You know? That's just how
- 1:16:50Speaker 3: I feel. I don't think you should let her go.
- 1:16:52Speaker 3: I think it should be a lot more communication than
- 1:16:56Speaker 3: it has been. I don't even want to communicate.
- 1:16:59Speaker 5: That's the problem. I have to write her on Snapchat
- 1:17:03Speaker 5: or TikTok or Instagram. It's like, why? When I got
- 1:17:05Speaker 5: your number, you rather block me on your real phone
- 1:17:09Speaker 5: and not talk about it. Like, I'm a talker. I
- 1:17:11Speaker 5: like to put stuff out on the table. I have
- 1:17:14Speaker 5: to hear from my family members that how she's feeling because,
- 1:17:17Speaker 5: like I said, me and my family has been there
- 1:17:20Speaker 5: for her because her situation's not that great. She don't
- 1:17:23Speaker 5: really have that family dynamic.
- 1:17:25Speaker 3: Right.
- 1:17:25Speaker 5: She even confessed to me that she was envious of
- 1:17:29Speaker 5: me and my family and stuff like that. And I
- 1:17:31Speaker 5: just don't understand when Ever since I've been your friend,
- 1:17:34Speaker 5: I've been here. Like, I brought you into my world.
- 1:17:37Speaker 5: I share everything with you. So how can you be
- 1:17:40Speaker 5: envious of me?
- 1:17:41Speaker 3: But babe, babe, babe. Okay, so the envious of you,
- 1:17:44Speaker 3: I get it. That's crazy. But you can't say you
- 1:17:47Speaker 3: don't understand, um.
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: That why she kind of envies the fact that you
- 1:17:54Speaker 3: have a relationship and she I mean a family and
- 1:17:59Speaker 3: she doesn't have one she didn't grow up with one
- 1:18:01Speaker 3: and yes you've been there for her but still at
- 1:18:03Speaker 3: the end of the day you ain't her family like
- 1:18:06Speaker 3: she lacks that she sees what you have I'm not
- 1:18:08Speaker 3: justifying her being envious or her being so bitter that
- 1:18:12Speaker 3: she gotta block you she don't want to communicate but
- 1:18:14Speaker 3: she don't know how to communicate she ain't got no
- 1:18:17Speaker 3: family ain't nobody ever teach her that you know what
- 1:18:19Speaker 3: I mean Like, so she winging it. That's why she's
- 1:18:22Speaker 3: in these effed up relationships. You know what I mean?
- 1:18:27Speaker 3: And that's also why she doesn't know how to communicate
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: with you and properly assess you as a friend or
- 1:18:33Speaker 3: even know how to identify what it is that she's
- 1:18:36Speaker 3: trying to cope with or trying to navigate this friendship
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: or whatever. She don't know how, you know? So she
- 1:18:42Speaker 3: gets angry, she gets bitter, and you just gotta show
- 1:18:46Speaker 3: up for it now if it's stressing you out by
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: all means look fall back but look that's your friend
- 1:18:53Speaker 3: you know try to understand her try to meet her
- 1:18:55Speaker 3: where she at and then try to bring her up
- 1:18:57Speaker 3: to you like look y'all bring her up to your
- 1:18:59Speaker 3: level like offer things like therapy i know you don't
- 1:19:01Speaker 3: have a family all right you you Go to therapy.
- 1:19:05Speaker 3: Go and talk to somebody. There's support groups with other
- 1:19:07Speaker 3: people like her who don't have families. You know what
- 1:19:09Speaker 3: I mean? And that's probably what she... Because she don't
- 1:19:12Speaker 3: have a family, she trying to make a family by
- 1:19:14Speaker 3: having kids by, you know, whoever, you know? And how
- 1:19:18Speaker 3: many baby daddies she got? Tell me that.
- 1:19:21Speaker 10: One, but that one is.
- 1:19:23Speaker 3: Yeah, that one is... But I'm saying, though, you know, like,
- 1:19:27Speaker 3: who does she have to go to to talk to
- 1:19:29Speaker 3: to be like, hey, look... dad or mom. You know,
- 1:19:33Speaker 3: she don't have that. You know, so... That's what I'm saying.
- 1:19:37Speaker 5: I'm trying to be that for her. I don't understand
- 1:19:39Speaker 5: why she keeps trying to cut me off when I'm
- 1:19:41Speaker 5: trying to be that. It's not stressful for me. It
- 1:19:43Speaker 5: is kind of like... It worries me and it bothers
- 1:19:45Speaker 5: me because I love her and I don't understand why
- 1:19:47Speaker 5: our relationship is the way that it is.
- 1:19:49Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 1:19:49Speaker 5: But it's like... I hear.
- 1:19:51Speaker 9: What you said.
- 1:19:51Speaker 5: Like, don't give up on her. Keep trying because... You
- 1:19:54Speaker 5: don't have too many people that are throwing up for
- 1:19:56Speaker 5: her like I am.
- 1:19:57Speaker 3: She don't.
- 1:19:58Speaker 4: And she will.
- 1:19:59Speaker 3: Trust me, once she get out of her feelings and
- 1:20:01Speaker 3: she realize she get out of her own way, she's
- 1:20:03Speaker 3: going to realize that you have been trying to help
- 1:20:06Speaker 3: her this whole time. And you can't help that you
- 1:20:08Speaker 3: do have a family dynamic and you've tried. You and
- 1:20:11Speaker 3: your family have tried to be there. You just said
- 1:20:13Speaker 3: she talks to your family, but she don't talk to you.
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: You know what I mean? So a part of her
- 1:20:19Speaker 3: still wants to. It's just that she in her feelings

- 1:21:39Speaker 9: So right now I'm in a situation, and for me,
- 1:21:43Speaker 9: there's these guys I'm kind of interested in, but I
- 1:21:47Speaker 9: found out that my friend is interested in them too.
- 1:21:51Speaker 9: And I don't want to feel like I'm holding myself back,
- 1:21:54Speaker 9: but at the same time, he is talking to my ex.
- 1:21:58Speaker 9: So I don't know if I should be too worried
- 1:22:01Speaker 9: about it, but I would need some advice.
- 1:22:03Speaker 3: Okay, so you got somebody that you're interested in, but
- 1:22:06Speaker 3: your friend is interested in the same guy, but your
- 1:22:10Speaker 3: friend is actually talking to your ex. So you feel like, look,
- 1:22:14Speaker 3: I like this person and you feel like ain't no
- 1:22:17Speaker 3: problem with it. Just because your friend like him, that's
- 1:22:19Speaker 3: not going to stop you. Now, who liked them first?
- 1:22:22Speaker 10: No, they already knew each other.
- 1:22:24Speaker 4: Okay, okay.
- 1:22:25Speaker 9: I didn't know there was something there, though. Like, if
- 1:22:28Speaker 9: that makes sense.

- 1:22:40Speaker 10: Go do what I want.
- 1:22:42Speaker 3: Yep, go talk to that man, okay? Go and talk
- 1:22:45Speaker 3: to him. And then I would tell my friend, though.
- 1:22:47Speaker 3: I would tell your friend, obviously, because you don't have
- 1:22:49Speaker 3: to do... Just because your friend is, you know, a little...
- 1:22:54Speaker 3: questionable don't mean you gotta be questionable either no you
- 1:22:56Speaker 3: you because i think it's crazy that he's talking to

- 1:23:20Speaker 9: let him know.
- 1:23:21Speaker 10: So he don't be blindsided.
- 1:23:22Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely let him know so he not blindsided because, no,
- 1:23:25Speaker 3: we cannot let his actions control our character overhead. No,
- 1:23:29Speaker 3: so just tell him, hey, listen, look, I do like
- 1:23:32Speaker 3: this gentleman and I'm going to pursue talking to him. Whatever.
- 1:23:36Speaker 3: Do you know if the guy like you?
- 1:23:37Speaker 9: Um, there's been times.
- 1:23:39Speaker 10: Like, I got, like... There's been multiple fines.
- 1:23:42Speaker 9: He even sent some videos to my phone that I
- 1:23:46Speaker 9: wasn't expecting.
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: What's the signs, though? He farting around you? You know
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: farting is flirting.
- 1:23:51Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
- 1:23:52Speaker 3: You know what?
- 1:23:52Speaker 4: He did fart before. I love you.
- 1:24:00Speaker 3: He comfortable.
- 1:24:01Speaker 4: He is comfortable. A little booty get loose around the
- 1:24:05Speaker 4: person you like.
- 1:24:05Speaker 3: Shut up.
- 1:24:07Speaker 10: Oh, my God.
- 1:24:09Speaker 4: He start farting all over the place.
- 1:24:11Speaker 3: He is so stupid. Anyway, anyway, anyway.
- 1:24:14Speaker 19: Yes.
- 1:24:14Speaker 6: All right.
- 1:24:14Speaker 3: So if there are signs and he's already been like
- 1:24:17Speaker 3: seemingly flirting with you, child, go for it. Go for it.
- 1:24:20Speaker 3: But you need to watch that friend or get rid
- 1:24:22Speaker 3: of him because I don't like it.
- 1:24:24Speaker 9: Listen, I'm going to go for it. And my sister
- 1:24:26Speaker 9: just told me the same thing.
- 1:24:27Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:24:28Speaker 9: If you saying that, I agree.
- 1:24:29Speaker 3: Go for them, honey. And you have a good day.
- 1:24:32Speaker 4: Thank you, too.
- 1:24:33Speaker 3: No problem, baby.
- 1:24:34Speaker 4: That's why I don't fart in my clothes. I don't
- 1:24:35Speaker 4: fart in my clothes.
- 1:24:36Speaker 3: Around gays?
- 1:24:37Speaker 4: I don't fart in my clothes, period.
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: And I don't fart around people, but you especially don't
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: fart around men because when you fart around another man,
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: that's a form of flirting.
- 1:24:45Speaker 3: So do you hold it in?
- 1:24:47Speaker 5: What?
- 1:24:47Speaker 3: Because, you know, flagellants just comes. It doesn't have a
- 1:24:49Speaker 3: designated time.
- 1:24:50Speaker 4: My booty ain't loose like that.
- 1:24:52Speaker 3: It ain't even about your booty being loose, boy.
- 1:24:54Speaker 4: I do butt kegels. Butt kegels?
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: Yeah, but because I've never practiced the bad habit of
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: farting in my clothes, I don't do it. My body
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: don't even operate like that. You got on that fly
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: ass outfit right now. Why would you fart in that?
- 1:25:05Speaker 3: Because it's better out than in.
- 1:25:07Speaker 4: What are you talking about?
- 1:25:08Speaker 3: I wish I would have worn a fart because I
- 1:25:09Speaker 3: got on some cute pants.
- 1:25:10Speaker 4: Farting in your clothes.
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: Yeah, okay.

- 1:26:13Speaker 2: Brought to you by Top Dog Law on The Breakfast Club.
- 1:26:16Speaker 3: Talk to me. All right, y'all. So we talked this
- 1:26:20Speaker 3: week about yesterday, actually, about Dolly Parton passing after a
- 1:26:24Speaker 3: cancer battle at age 80. Well, there has been some
- 1:26:28Speaker 3: conversation about like what we may see next from her
- 1:26:31Speaker 3: because people on her team have been talking about the
- 1:26:34Speaker 3: fact that Dolly Parton had actually set up a roadmap
- 1:26:36Speaker 3: for a lot of the projects that she was currently
- 1:26:38Speaker 3: working on and just how she wanted things to go,
- 1:26:41Speaker 3: you know, in case of her passing. So one of
- 1:26:44Speaker 3: her long term partners revealed that she spent the recent
- 1:26:46Speaker 3: years working very closely with the team that she handpicked
- 1:26:50Speaker 3: to build a very comprehensive roadmap of what these projects
- 1:26:53Speaker 3: will look like. And the reason why they're talking about
- 1:26:54Speaker 3: this is because they want people to know if you
- 1:26:56Speaker 3: see new things roll out, it's not like, oh, my God,
- 1:26:59Speaker 3: why are you guys doing this? She's no longer here. Like, no,
- 1:27:01Speaker 3: she had a hand in this and they're literally following
- 1:27:03Speaker 3: her plan and her blueprint. So they plan a audio visual,
- 1:27:07Speaker 3: a bunch of audio visual projects, including a musical documentary project.
- 1:27:11Speaker 3: There's going to be a feature biopic, biopic, biopic, biopic,
- 1:27:14Speaker 3: and a very in-depth docuseries with specific release dates to
- 1:27:18Speaker 3: be announced later by her team.
- 1:27:20Speaker 4: I think I saw something too. I don't know if
- 1:27:21Speaker 4: this was true.
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: They said that her last recorded song she has stored
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: and she doesn't want it released till like 2046.
- 1:27:28Speaker 4: Is that true?
- 1:27:29Speaker 3: I've heard that before. And that's supposed to be a
- 1:27:31Speaker 3: Dolly world, right?
- 1:27:32Speaker 4: Yes.
- 1:27:32Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:27:33Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:27:33Speaker 3: I saw that story too. I've heard that as well too,
- 1:27:36Speaker 3: but it seems that's right. She got plans for the future. Crazy,
- 1:27:40Speaker 3: crazy future. That's 20 years from now. But also, too,
- 1:27:43Speaker 3: I mean, when you're getting up there in age and
- 1:27:44Speaker 3: you've done as much as she's done, you know what
- 1:27:47Speaker 3: I mean? You kind of do start thinking about what
- 1:27:49Speaker 3: legacy and what all that looks like. So, yeah. She
- 1:27:54Speaker 3: was that calculated and intentional.
- 1:27:56Speaker 17: Yes.
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: And when you're the entity that Dolly Parton was, yes,
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: I remember seeing her talk about years ago how she
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: had her will and estate already planned out because she
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: didn't want nobody to be left with all that mess.
- 1:28:05Speaker 1: She's worth like $ 600- plus million, man.
- 1:28:09Speaker 4: Dolly different, bro.
- 1:28:11Speaker 3: There's fans that did a Change.org petition, too. They're trying
- 1:28:13Speaker 3: to change the airport in Nashville to be named after her.
- 1:28:18Speaker 3: Just a bunch of people that are rallying together asking
- 1:28:20Speaker 3: for that.
- 1:28:21Speaker 4: Not just people.
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: There's elected officials in Nashville.
- 1:28:24Speaker 3: Oh, I did see that.
- 1:28:25Speaker 4: State lawmakers are trying to get that done too.
- 1:28:28Speaker 3: I did reach out to the Nashville International Airport to
- 1:28:30Speaker 3: see if that is like something that they would do
- 1:28:32Speaker 3: or like if they would honor her in any way,
- 1:28:34Speaker 3: just because I thought that would be a good idea
- 1:28:35Speaker 3: because she's such a big staple but I haven't heard
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: back from them yet so yes now I want to
- 1:28:41Speaker 3: take some time to in this latest to send some
- 1:28:44Speaker 3: love to Kehlani You guys remember we talked about she
- 1:28:46Speaker 3: had did a surgery because her sinuses and like, you know,
- 1:28:49Speaker 3: she was saying that like she's always... It's the same
- 1:28:50Speaker 3: surgery Envy had. She was saying that she's always sick
- 1:28:53Speaker 3: and having to cancel shows and she didn't know why
- 1:28:56Speaker 3: and she thought that she had finally gotten to it. Well,
- 1:28:57Speaker 3: she recently posted to her Instagram that she had not
- 1:29:00Speaker 3: been feeling well for two days. So she had to
- 1:29:01Speaker 3: cancel two shows, one in Camden and one in D.C.,
- 1:29:04Speaker 3: And she was hospitalized because she was not able to swallow.
- 1:29:06Speaker 3: She was just in a lot of pain. Yeah, she's
- 1:29:09Speaker 3: currently on her North American leg of her self-titled world tour.
- 1:29:12Speaker 3: And she's supposed to pick back up with that tour
- 1:29:14Speaker 3: this weekend in Virginia on the 29th. But she apologized
- 1:29:18Speaker 3: to her fans and just said, you know, she's been up.
- 1:29:21Speaker 3: At that point, she had been up all night and
- 1:29:22Speaker 3: was unable to, you know, swallow and was in a
- 1:29:24Speaker 3: lot of pain. So there was nothing that she could do.
- 1:29:26Speaker 3: But she let her fans know that she's working on
- 1:29:27Speaker 3: a solution to get the shows rescheduled. Well, we'll feel better, Kay. Yeah, yes, yes.
- 1:29:33Speaker 3: All right, y'all. And in closing, yesterday, this caught me
- 1:29:37Speaker 3: really off guard. Floyd Mayweather launched a legal practice of
- 1:29:43Speaker 3: some sort. It's called the Money Team Legal. There's a
- 1:29:48Speaker 3: he dropped a commercial for online. Let's take a listen
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: to that.

- 1:30:09Speaker 3: the difference.
- 1:30:10Speaker 16: How do you know which lawyers is right for you?
- 1:30:14Speaker 7: That's why we started the Money Team Law Firm, a
- 1:30:16Speaker 7: network of the best attorneys from around the country so
- 1:30:20Speaker 7: everyone can get the justice and money they deserve.
- 1:30:24Speaker 1: Man, dropping the clues bombs for Lucky, boy. Lucky done
- 1:30:26Speaker 1: changed the game. Top Dog Law changed the game.
- 1:30:29Speaker 3: It really felt just like that, right?
- 1:30:30Speaker 4: You gotta go get you some celebrity endorsement.
- 1:30:31Speaker 1: Man, that's not him.
- 1:30:32Speaker 4: You gotta have an animal, okay?
- 1:30:34Speaker 3: He did not read that.
- 1:30:35Speaker 4: Even Michael Lamasoft got the bull.
- 1:30:37Speaker 15: What?
- 1:30:37Speaker 4: What did you say?
- 1:30:39Speaker 3: I said that is not him. That's not Floyd. He's
- 1:30:41Speaker 3: in the video.
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:30:43Speaker 3: You sure it's not here?
- 1:30:45Speaker 4: No, I don't see the problem.
- 1:30:46Speaker 1: Because, I mean, what he said was we have a
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: team of lawyers from all around the country. So clearly,
- 1:30:52Speaker 1: you know, they came up with something that brings a
- 1:30:53Speaker 1: lot of a bunch of attorneys together. They're calling it
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: the money team dot com. And, you know, he's the
- 1:30:59Speaker 1: ambassador for it.
- 1:31:00Speaker 10: Clearly.
- 1:31:00Speaker 3: Yeah, it says on the website that their team is
- 1:31:02Speaker 3: not afraid to take on powerful corporations and insurance companies.
- 1:31:05Speaker 3: They know how to deliver championship results because they built
- 1:31:09Speaker 3: a reputation to do so.
- 1:31:10Speaker 4: I love law firm wars.
- 1:31:11Speaker 1: And between Top Dog Law and Morgan and Morgan and
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: the Bull, Michael Lanzar, everybody, like, they.
- 1:31:17Speaker 4: Going for it. You got to go for it. You
- 1:31:19Speaker 4: got to have you a mascot. What's that?
- 1:31:22Speaker 3: Oh, I guess he's the mascot then.
- 1:31:24Speaker 4: He's an ambassador.
- 1:31:25Speaker 3: Yeah, but what's their mascot, though?
- 1:31:26Speaker 4: The money, the money team.
- 1:31:30Speaker 3: All them law firms got money as an ambassador. They
- 1:31:32Speaker 3: all talk about their money, like top dog law firms.
- 1:31:34Speaker 1: Mad people got money, too, but when you think the
- 1:31:35Speaker 1: money team, you think Floyd Mayweather and them because they
- 1:31:37Speaker 1: branded it.
- 1:31:38Speaker 4: He's Money Mayweather. He branded money.
- 1:31:40Speaker 1: Mad people got money, but he branded it. And now
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: he about to do it with the law firm.
- 1:31:43Speaker 3: I don't have a problem with it.
- 1:31:45Speaker 4: Hope I don't ever need him.
- 1:31:47Speaker 3: They say they focus on traumatic brain injury cases, which
- 1:31:50Speaker 3: I think is related to his... Yep. Life altering injuries
- 1:31:54Speaker 3: deserve championship level representation. Traumatic brain injuries are among the
- 1:31:57Speaker 3: most devastating injuries a person can experience.
- 1:31:59Speaker 4: So I don't have a problem with it.
- 1:32:02Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:32:02Speaker 3: Well, speaking of, you know, law firms, Top Dog Law,
- 1:32:05Speaker 3: you know, they have won over a billion dollars for
- 1:32:08Speaker 3: their clients.
- 1:32:08Speaker 7: Yep.
- 1:32:09Speaker 3: So if you get in an accident, you should call
- 1:32:11Speaker 3: Top Dog Law because their bark is their bite.
- 1:32:12Speaker 7: It is.
- 1:32:13Speaker 4: It's the dog. And if people are hearing you say
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: that right now, like, what the hell, Laura, know about law?
- 1:32:16Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 1:32:17Speaker 4: What the hell is she doing that for? Same way
- 1:32:19Speaker 4: y'all just did Floyd.
- 1:32:20Speaker 11: See?
- 1:32:21Speaker 3: It was just random for me because it's... It was
- 1:32:22Speaker 3: random when they hear you do it. I don't own
- 1:32:24Speaker 3: Top Dog Law. Floyd, this is like... Yeah.
- 1:32:26Speaker 4: Well, get your money up.
- 1:32:28Speaker 3: Oh! Get your cookies up before they come. I heard you.
- 1:32:32Speaker 3: All right.
- 1:32:33Speaker 4: You're right.
- 1:32:33Speaker 3: I'm broke. Let me stay in my lane. I'm right.
