- 3:23Speaker 1: the Nuggets beat the Lake is one fourteen, one oh six.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Now I don't think that, don't think that series is
- 3:29Speaker 1: gonna be a pushover for the Lake because he's about
- 3:31Speaker 1: the way n Nuggets is tough. They definitely are tough.
- 3:36Speaker 1: We're starting easy. And just so you guys know, the
- 3:39Speaker 1: University of Notre Dame was for us to postpone their
- 3:41Speaker 1: football game against against Wake Forest after multiple student athletes
- 3:45Speaker 1: tested positive for COVID nineteen. And that's just an fyi,
- 3:49Speaker 1: all right. Michael Bloomberg has raised more than sixteen million dollars,
- 3:53Speaker 1: and that is to help convicted felons in Florida registered
- 3:56Speaker 1: to vote. The Florida Rights Restoration Coalition estimated that his
- 3:59Speaker 1: push has already paid off monetary obligations for thirty two
- 4:03Speaker 1: thousand felons. Just back in twenty eighteen, Florida past the
- 4:07Speaker 1: law reinstating voting rights for felons that dictated they could
- 4:09Speaker 1: register only if they pay off fines, fees, and restitution.
- 4:13Speaker 1: Sometimes that totaled more than one thousand dollars and they
- 4:16Speaker 1: had to pay those fines and restitutions oh to the
- 4:19Speaker 1: government before they could vote. I saw that a lot
- 4:21Speaker 1: of people were also raising money for this, like Michael Vican,
- 4:24Speaker 1: Desmond Mede. They worked with to restore people's voting rights
- 4:28Speaker 1: as well in Florida. The Florida Rights Restoration Coalition, Yeah,
- 4:32Speaker 1: Why does he have to raise that money? I mean,
- 4:34Speaker 1: salute the Bloomberg was a great jestivor Why does he
- 4:37Speaker 1: have to raise the money? He an't got that in
- 4:38Speaker 1: his pocket and didn't Bloomberger. He was gonna send whatever
- 4:41Speaker 1: didn't bloombergday, He's gonna spend whatever to get TRUMPA. He
- 4:44Speaker 1: did say that, Yeah, why did he have to raise
- 4:47Speaker 1: the money? He should have that like just laying around somewhere.
- 4:50Speaker 1: I thought he donated some of his own money. That's
- 4:52Speaker 1: what I thought. That's what I do. Well, maybe it
- 4:56Speaker 1: is some of his own money. I don't know. Maybe
- 4:59Speaker 1: he as a fund that he uses for that. All right. Now,
- 5:04Speaker 1: imagine you're sitting on the porch at your own house
- 5:07Speaker 1: and officers come and hold you at gunpoint and put
- 5:10Speaker 1: handcuffs on you. Well, that happened in Wisconsin on June second.
- 5:15Speaker 1: A young black man, Kyante First, was arrested in his home.
- 5:18Speaker 1: Cops came, they pointed guns at him, and now police
- 5:21Speaker 1: are saying it was just a mistake. So, just to
- 5:24Speaker 1: give you some background, the home belonged to Keyante's coach,
- 5:28Speaker 1: who was allowing him and another teammate to stay in
- 5:30Speaker 1: the house after his mother who previously lived in the
- 5:33Speaker 1: home had passed away, and apparently one of the neighbors
- 5:36Speaker 1: called nine one listen to this, okay, okay, and where
- 5:43Speaker 1: is it happening? That it's the Africana Mari's town which
- 5:47Speaker 1: Swift friends police flop and a wife shirt on the
- 5:52Speaker 1: suspicious activity home, sitting on the sitting on the porch.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Now here is what Kyante first said when the cops came,
- 6:04Speaker 1: Police department, Come out with your hands up, Come out
- 6:07Speaker 1: with your hands up. Okay, you don't live here my
- 6:11Speaker 1: coach's house, Coach Rundo, Okay, you let me in Torres
- 6:14Speaker 1: State here you can call them Maxellent okay for right now,
- 6:18Speaker 1: just turn around the chanda is it Yante? Okay for
- 6:22Speaker 1: jans bending back for a second? First? Canna contain here though,
- 6:26Speaker 1: because you don't live here and the person that lived
- 6:28Speaker 1: your passed away. So okay, can you guys call coach. Yeah,
- 6:31Speaker 1: that's what we're gonna do. Well, you know, if police
- 6:35Speaker 1: stopped perceiving black people is guilty before they are proven innocent,
- 6:39Speaker 1: you wouldn't have those problems like some people. Some white
- 6:41Speaker 1: people already think the worst of the worst of black
- 6:43Speaker 1: people as soon as they hear black, they pull up
- 6:46Speaker 1: like that, all right, Why wouldn't the coach? Right? And
- 6:51Speaker 1: here are the chance of aging. This is the reason
- 6:54Speaker 1: why you're here. Someone called because they know because I'm
- 6:56Speaker 1: a black man, and it's that lady right. So even
- 6:58Speaker 1: though she weighed at mean, I wasn't because the person
- 7:01Speaker 1: that lived here, okay, right, and they're concerned that it
- 7:04Speaker 1: got broken into or something. So turm, I'm gonna take
- 7:07Speaker 1: them off for your quick We'll go grab your phone
- 7:09Speaker 1: and get on the phone with Mark. Okay, you didn't answer,
- 7:13Speaker 1: but but it sounds like another neighbor knows that you
- 7:16Speaker 1: guys are here. So it's a misunderstanding. So sorry for
- 7:19Speaker 1: the misunderstanding on our part. See that. Yeah, it absolutely.
- 7:28Speaker 1: After you traumatize a brother emotionally and mentally, all you
- 7:31Speaker 1: get is an apology. And I really for doing nothing
- 7:35Speaker 1: but being in the house that could have went so left. Absolutely,
- 7:38Speaker 1: And why why wouldn't a neighbor called the coach? If
- 7:41Speaker 1: you're the neighbor, don't you have the coaches number? You
- 7:43Speaker 1: can't pick up the phone and say, hey, man, are
- 7:44Speaker 1: you expecting guests? Is somebody staying in your house? And
- 7:47Speaker 1: then she described them black with white pants on. She
- 7:50Speaker 1: might not have had the coaches number because it's the
- 7:51Speaker 1: coaches mom that used to live there, So maybe she
- 7:54Speaker 1: didn't have the coaches number. I don't know. But if
- 7:56Speaker 1: they look, if they're sitting on the porch, do you
- 7:58Speaker 1: think that house is going to be king forever? No
- 8:00Speaker 1: one's ever gonna move in? And why does she notice
- 8:03Speaker 1: his sweatpants? Why does she describe the sweatpants? There must
- 8:07Speaker 1: have been great sweatpants. Scared the hell out of that woman.

- 13:00Speaker 1: Did your time to get it off your chest? Whether
- 13:02Speaker 1: you're man or blessed Hofy beould have the same innut
- 13:04Speaker 1: we want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club. Allow,
- 13:07Speaker 1: who's this? Hey? What's going on? This is what's going on?
- 13:13Speaker 1: What's happening? Man? And I got to talk to you
- 13:14Speaker 1: about that story you just had on there about the
- 13:18Speaker 1: tops being called the guy sir, Yes, Well, let me
- 13:22Speaker 1: ask you a question. How was it suppot the cops
- 13:26Speaker 1: supposed to go into that situation. I mean, they sounded
- 13:29Speaker 1: like they were professional. The guy was willing to um,
- 13:33Speaker 1: you know, accommodate them. He allowed them to do their job.
- 13:37Speaker 1: He wasn't confrontational. And you know, if he was saying
- 13:41Speaker 1: how that could have gotten so bad and somebody could
- 13:44Speaker 1: have gotten shot. But I mean everybody, they didn't have
- 13:47Speaker 1: to put They didn't have to put him in handcuffs.
- 13:50Speaker 1: They could have checked out his story first. He told
- 13:52Speaker 1: them like, hey, could you call coach such and such.
- 13:54Speaker 1: This is his house where the guests here. They could
- 13:57Speaker 1: have called the coach and verified the story. They would
- 13:59Speaker 1: have definitely did that for a white woman. It would
- 14:01Speaker 1: have definitely did that for a white man. How do
- 14:04Speaker 1: you know definitely? You know you guys always speaking. They
- 14:07Speaker 1: because we heard a story yesterday of a woman who
- 14:10Speaker 1: took off on a high speed chase from the police
- 14:13Speaker 1: after telling them she's not going to jail. When she
- 14:15Speaker 1: said when they when they said, hey, we'll put your
- 14:17Speaker 1: hand behind your back, we're gonna arrest you, she said
- 14:19Speaker 1: nope and sped off. Nothing happened to her when they
- 14:22Speaker 1: finally caught her a row blocks later. Well, I do
- 14:25Speaker 1: want to just note one thing from what you said
- 14:27Speaker 1: from how I reported the story, when I said things
- 14:29Speaker 1: could have gone left, that was more on behalf of
- 14:32Speaker 1: the woman calling the cops on people just because she
- 14:35Speaker 1: saw two black men in a house that was sitting
- 14:38Speaker 1: on the porch. They weren't. She didn't see them breaking
- 14:40Speaker 1: in a window, she saw them sitting outside. They'd clearly
- 14:43Speaker 1: been living there for a few days. She waved at them,
- 14:45Speaker 1: so she could have just engaged. I'm so I was
- 14:49Speaker 1: referring to her calling the cops for that purpose. Again,
- 14:53Speaker 1: it just always changed, like it comes down to this
- 14:55Speaker 1: definitive if it was a black man versus it was
- 14:58Speaker 1: a white man. And I just think that, you know,
- 15:00Speaker 1: you had to go to like Wisconsin or something to
- 15:03Speaker 1: find that story. So I mean, I'm sure if I
- 15:05Speaker 1: scour with the uh, you know, newspapers days, I would faring,
- 15:10Speaker 1: you know, stories to the contrary. So all I'm saying
- 15:14Speaker 1: is that it's not as exfinitive. It's not because the
- 15:17Speaker 1: cops were white and because the guy was blasted. Sometimes
- 15:21Speaker 1: cops are a little more fortunates, Sometimes cops are a
- 15:24Speaker 1: little more aggressive. It's it's a people problem, not a
- 15:29Speaker 1: little problems, you know. Right now, I'm thinking more about
- 15:31Speaker 1: how they thought that. Imagine you were in your house,
- 15:34Speaker 1: just mandy, your business, where you're supposed to be, and
- 15:37Speaker 1: the cops come in and draw guns on you and
- 15:39Speaker 1: handcuff you. Just imagine how traumatic something like that is
- 15:42Speaker 1: and how that would make you feel no doubt about it.
- 15:44Speaker 1: I agree, that's what I think about it. Question. But
- 15:47Speaker 1: you have to understand the cops are going into this situation, okay,
- 15:52Speaker 1: expecting the worst, hoping for the best. They'll go into
- 15:55Speaker 1: a house where they're old. The person that is there
- 15:58Speaker 1: is not the owner. The first of all, it didn't
- 16:01Speaker 1: have to put him in handcuffs, sir, and you know
- 16:03Speaker 1: that I have a nice thank you, thank you for
- 16:05Speaker 1: your color. Because we can't tell about this. I mean,
- 16:08Speaker 1: I don't know and I want to say, I don't
- 16:09Speaker 1: know what the protocol is. And the cops did seem
- 16:12Speaker 1: polite the way they was making and it wasn't the lady.
- 16:15Speaker 1: It's just call the police on some individuals that she
- 16:19Speaker 1: didn't know what didn't see, which I understand too. Lady
- 16:21Speaker 1: looks in the house. I don't know who they are,
- 16:23Speaker 1: but just the way that it was descript that they
- 16:24Speaker 1: would describe they weren't doing anything. And like you said,
- 16:27Speaker 1: they could have called the people at the old house. Hey,
- 16:29Speaker 1: there's some people here. You just don't call the people
- 16:30Speaker 1: because you see black people that you know about. How
- 16:33Speaker 1: about when you finally get to the house, just and
- 16:35Speaker 1: once the black person gives you a story, how about
- 16:38Speaker 1: following up on that story? Right, you don't have to
- 16:40Speaker 1: put him in handcuffs, all right, get it off your chest.
- 16:43Speaker 1: Eight hundred five eight five one on five one. We
- 16:45Speaker 1: got roomors on the way. Yes, and where do we start. Well,
- 16:48Speaker 1: let's talk about a person who is voting for the
- 16:51Speaker 1: first time in this election, and he didn't even know
- 16:55Speaker 1: he could vote. So we'll explain that. All right, we'll
- 16:58Speaker 1: get into that next. Keep a lock to Breakfast Club.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Go morning the Breakfast Club. Listen, it's just oh Reports,
- 17:12Speaker 1: it's the Rumal Report with Breakfast Club. Well, Mike Tyson
- 17:16Speaker 1: is fifty four years old and he's never voted before,
- 17:18Speaker 1: and he's going to be voting for the first time
- 17:20Speaker 1: this year. He tweeted out, this will be my first
- 17:23Speaker 1: time voting. I never thought I could because of my
- 17:25Speaker 1: felony record. I'm proud to finally vote, and then he
- 17:28Speaker 1: put up a link to register to vote, and he
- 17:30Speaker 1: hashtag National Voter Registration Day because he was convicted and
- 17:34Speaker 1: sentenced to six years in prison, and that was back
- 17:36Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety two for rape in two counts of
- 17:39Speaker 1: deviant sexual conduct, and that stripped him of his right
- 17:42Speaker 1: to vote. Now, a lot of state laws about the
- 17:44Speaker 1: US rule felons ineligible to vote, and about six million Americans,
- 17:49Speaker 1: which is two point five percent of the nation's voting
- 17:51Speaker 1: age population, couldn't vote in the twenty sixteen election because
- 17:54Speaker 1: of felony records. But right now there's been a movement
- 17:57Speaker 1: toward restoring convicted felons their right to vote on a
- 18:00Speaker 1: state by state basis. So in Nevada they signed a
- 18:03Speaker 1: law to restore voting rights to all persons convicted of
- 18:06Speaker 1: felony upon release from prison in twenty nineteen. All right now,
- 18:10Speaker 1: Snoop Dogg in the meantime, has teamed up with Rock
- 18:12Speaker 1: the Vote and One Vote Closer as a social initiative,
- 18:15Speaker 1: and this is the first election he's voting in. He said,
- 18:18Speaker 1: how the system is set up. I honestly didn't know
- 18:19Speaker 1: that I was allowed to vote based on my past history.
- 18:22Speaker 1: My record has been expunged, so I'm gonna be out
- 18:25Speaker 1: here at this election. I have to get involved. As
- 18:27Speaker 1: I'm looking around at what's happening in the world right now,
- 18:29Speaker 1: I know that we need to make an immediate change
- 18:31Speaker 1: and we can't take back Ido, which is why along
- 18:34Speaker 1: with one by partner would rock the vote and one
- 18:36Speaker 1: vote closer. And he said he's going to be using
- 18:38Speaker 1: his influence to let people know the only option is
- 18:41Speaker 1: to get out and vote. I saluted old brothers man
- 18:44Speaker 1: drop on a clue box for Snoop dogg in Mike Tyson.
- 18:48Speaker 1: If they found a reason to vote. I'm happy that
- 18:50Speaker 1: they're voting all right now. Ray J is talking about
- 18:54Speaker 1: filing for divorce, and you know he filed for divorce
- 18:58Speaker 1: and Princess Love found out about it the same time
- 19:00Speaker 1: we did online. And here's what he had to say
- 19:02Speaker 1: when he was on the rail yesterday. Did you tell her? No?
- 19:05Speaker 1: I didn't. When you're in your own relationship, sometimes you know,
- 19:09Speaker 1: sometimes you do things spontaneously, Sometimes you move too fast.
- 19:13Speaker 1: Sometimes you make mistakes, you know what I mean. And
- 19:15Speaker 1: so I'm not saying that that's what I did or
- 19:19Speaker 1: I made a mistake, but I don't know if I
- 19:21Speaker 1: did make a mistake. I don't know, you know what
- 19:22Speaker 1: I mean? You know I have every right to just
- 19:25Speaker 1: not know, you know, and still just try to figure
- 19:27Speaker 1: it out now. Genie May then pressed him about whether
- 19:30Speaker 1: or not he wants to be married, not just be
- 19:33Speaker 1: with his family, but be married. It seems like you
- 19:35Speaker 1: want to get back together. Do you want to get
- 19:37Speaker 1: back together with Princess? I mean, I just I want
- 19:40Speaker 1: to be with my family, yes, but I want to know.
- 19:42Speaker 1: Do you want to be married the kids? Yes, but
- 19:45Speaker 1: you have to have a happy family from a happy, stable,
- 19:49Speaker 1: loyal marriage. And do you want a happy, stable, loyal
- 19:52Speaker 1: marriage that's a happy family party. Yes. As far as counseling,
- 19:57Speaker 1: it sounds like the couple does definitely need it. And
- 20:00Speaker 1: here's what ray J had to say about that. I
- 20:01Speaker 1: don't know. I just felt like the counseling was more
- 20:04Speaker 1: so a hustle. It's like if the counselor is on
- 20:07Speaker 1: one side, then the other person might get mad. So
- 20:11Speaker 1: I just felt like it would it would get one sided.
- 20:13Speaker 1: But hey, maybe we do need counseling. Maybe mind would
- 20:16Speaker 1: you be open to that? Now? Would you be open
- 20:18Speaker 1: to that? Yeah? I mean I would. I mean I
- 20:20Speaker 1: was I spent all weekend, you know, at the house
- 20:23Speaker 1: with the kids and with Princess and my mom and
- 20:26Speaker 1: her friends, and you know, it was it was just
- 20:29Speaker 1: a good vibe and um, you know I just had
- 20:31Speaker 1: to fall back and go, damn, this is a really, really,
- 20:34Speaker 1: really good thing. Now, Princess Love was on Fox Sol
- 20:37Speaker 1: with Claudia Jordan's and here's what you had to say
- 20:40Speaker 1: about how now she doesn't want to work it out
- 20:42Speaker 1: after all this, Princess, do you still love him? I
- 20:45Speaker 1: always love him. Would you like to work it out
- 20:47Speaker 1: with him? Um? I feel like right now we just
- 20:53Speaker 1: I don't know, we just need to just really figure out. No,
- 20:59Speaker 1: I don't right now. No, I don't not right now.
- 21:01Speaker 1: I don't because I feel like by him, you actually
- 21:04Speaker 1: filed for divorce, You made me spend money on a
- 21:06Speaker 1: lawyer when we could have just talked about it and
- 21:09Speaker 1: went to counseling or something. So obviously you don't want
- 21:12Speaker 1: to be married to me. I mean, let's not forget
- 21:14Speaker 1: she found out online, so that's not an easy thing
- 21:17Speaker 1: to find out. Now. She does also say she regrets
- 21:21Speaker 1: how she handled the original divorce filing. Why did you
- 21:24Speaker 1: decide to work things out? Because you know, I wanted
- 21:27Speaker 1: to fight from my marriage. You know, at the time
- 21:30Speaker 1: all that happened, I was pregnant, I was hormonal, and
- 21:33Speaker 1: looking back now, I really I realized that I shouldn't
- 21:36Speaker 1: have handled it that way. But you know, when you're
- 21:38Speaker 1: trying to get somebody's attention and you wanted to know
- 21:41Speaker 1: how you feel, and it's like can't find them, you know,
- 21:44Speaker 1: I just I don't know. Looking back now, I know
- 21:47Speaker 1: I shouldn't have did that, but you know, it happened.
- 21:50Speaker 1: So you regret saying you wanted to end it. No,
- 21:53Speaker 1: I regret putting my business out there. Damn rage. I
- 21:58Speaker 1: just wish taking handless inside of doing it's so public
- 22:01Speaker 1: like this, you know, Yeah, I feel sorry if the
- 22:03Speaker 1: princess and Raja and by the way, people, counseling is
- 22:05Speaker 1: not a hustle. Counseling as a resource that helps you
- 22:07Speaker 1: and your queen, you know, on want accord and I
- 22:09Speaker 1: wish they could have gotten that before they you know,
- 22:11Speaker 1: you know, jump to the divorce of it all because
- 22:13Speaker 1: it sounds like they've both have been making a lot
- 22:15Speaker 1: of emotional decisions. And that's why you shouldn't move off emotion,
- 22:18Speaker 1: you move off strategy and then yesterday Princess had the
- 22:22Speaker 1: audacity to unmitigated gud to post that pick of her
- 22:25Speaker 1: in a bikini going through something through something, you know,
- 22:31Speaker 1: her DMS was happening. After that, I'm sure we're going
- 22:36Speaker 1: do something. Don't do that, call the counselor. I don't
- 22:40Speaker 1: want to divorce no more. All right, Well I'm Angela

- 23:39Speaker 1: The Lakers lost last night. They leave the series to one.
- 23:42Speaker 1: They lost to the Nuggets one fourteen, one oh six.
- 23:45Speaker 1: Don't sleep on them goddamn Nuggets. I'm trying to tell
- 23:48Speaker 1: you right now. I don't think the Nuggets are gonna
- 23:50Speaker 1: win the series, but I think that they can push
- 23:51Speaker 1: you to at least seven games. Those Nuggets are now Duke,
- 23:55Speaker 1: all right, well, what else we got? Ye? The first
- 23:59Speaker 1: president until debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden will
- 24:02Speaker 1: focus on different topics, including the coronavirus pandemic, the Supreme Court,
- 24:08Speaker 1: and ratio reckoning in this country. And they announced that yesterday.
- 24:12Speaker 1: So that is going to be happening, as you know,
- 24:14Speaker 1: on September twenty ninth. It'll be happening in Cleveland, Ohio
- 24:17Speaker 1: at Case Western Reserve University. So they said are subjected, Yeah,
- 24:22Speaker 1: they said the topics are subject to change though, based
- 24:24Speaker 1: on news developments. But there's six segments. The six seconds
- 24:28Speaker 1: are ohga. The topics are the Trump and Biden records,
- 24:33Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, COVID nineteen, the economy race, and violence
- 24:37Speaker 1: in our cities and the integrity of the election. Yeah,
- 24:41Speaker 1: the topics is subject to change based on how Donald
- 24:44Speaker 1: Trump decides to change them. I highly died he sticks
- 24:47Speaker 1: to the script, and I got my money on Trump
- 24:49Speaker 1: in the debate. Biden simply can't outperform Trump. Trump is
- 24:53Speaker 1: a better showman, and I believe Trump is gonna hit
- 24:56Speaker 1: him with blows that Biden not ready for because let's
- 24:58Speaker 1: be honest, Democrats don't ever seem fat, and it's like
- 25:01Speaker 1: they will train Biden how to box when Trump is
- 25:03Speaker 1: gonna come in there like a UFC fighter. He's gonna
- 25:05Speaker 1: be boxing, he's gonna be kicking, he's gonna be biting, biting.
- 25:08Speaker 1: I don't I don't see it for Biden in the debate, hopefully.
- 25:10Speaker 1: I don't know a lot of times Donald Trump says
- 25:12Speaker 1: things that are just untrue, self serving, narcissistic, And it
- 25:20Speaker 1: absolutely does because you can't argue with a person like that.
- 25:22Speaker 1: You're using facts, but he's saying whatever just to win
- 25:25Speaker 1: the argument and to answer certain questions. That's that's even
- 25:31Speaker 1: better for Hillary told Hillary told Biden Hiller, Hillary told Joe, you, yo,
- 25:37Speaker 1: You've never debated somebody like this. Because it's a person
- 25:40Speaker 1: that's willing to lie and say any anything. You're you're
- 25:43Speaker 1: going in there all structured with your facts, and Trump
- 25:47Speaker 1: is out there freestyling. Don't know that lying in a debate, though,
- 25:51Speaker 1: is a thing that will make people be like, yeah,
- 25:53Speaker 1: he did, great, shall see all right? And Donald Trump
- 25:59Speaker 1: also says it. Supreme Court nominee will be announced Saturday
- 26:02Speaker 1: at five pm. Who is replacing Ruth Bader Ginsburg? See
- 26:06Speaker 1: less than a week. I don't even know. Funeral arrangements
- 26:10Speaker 1: have been made for ALLBG. Come on, man, all right.
- 26:14Speaker 1: I've never seen nobody give less of an F than
- 26:16Speaker 1: Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell give less of an F.
- 26:18Speaker 1: They don't care, not at all. And that's why I
- 26:21Speaker 1: tell everybody. And we've been saying this, and I know
- 26:24Speaker 1: yesterday we've been talking about this, but every single day,
- 26:26Speaker 1: make sure that you are going to vote, Make sure
- 26:29Speaker 1: that you are registered to vote. If you need to
- 26:31Speaker 1: have any questions or if you want to know how
- 26:34Speaker 1: to register to vote, what key dates are election reminders,
- 26:37Speaker 1: you can go ahead and text Levi's lbis to seven
- 26:41Speaker 1: eight eight six eighty three and get all of that information.
- 26:44Speaker 1: But we need to make sure that everybody is out
- 26:46Speaker 1: here voting. We told you earlier Mike Tyson's voting for
- 26:48Speaker 1: the first time in this election. So it's Snoop dogg
- 26:51Speaker 1: and make sure you exercise You're right, all right. Authorities
- 26:54Speaker 1: have arrested three men and one woman in connection with
- 26:57Speaker 1: the death of a black man. His body was found
- 26:59Speaker 1: burning a ditch in rural Iowa. Yes. One of the
- 27:03Speaker 1: men arrested his thirty one year old Stephen Vogel. He's white.
- 27:06Speaker 1: He was already in jail on unrelated charges and now
- 27:09Speaker 1: he is facing charges of first degree murder and abuse
- 27:12Speaker 1: of a corpse. According to the Department of Public Safety
- 27:15Speaker 1: in Iowa, so authorities received a report of a fire
- 27:20Speaker 1: and a roadside ditch on last Wednesday, just after five thirty.

- 27:26Speaker 1: Williams of Grinnell. They said he was killed on or
- 27:30Speaker 1: about September twelfth, and his body was then wrapped in
- 27:32Speaker 1: cloth and plastics, secured with rope and tape, and then
- 27:34Speaker 1: they took him to Kellogg on September sixteenth, that's where
- 27:37Speaker 1: his body was set ablaze. According to this statement, so
- 27:41Speaker 1: they did know each other. These two men, Williams and Vogel,
- 27:44Speaker 1: and Vogel's mother, who shares a home with him, will
- 27:47Speaker 1: face charges of abuse of a corpse, obstructing prosecution, and
- 27:51Speaker 1: accessory after the fact. According to court documents, So there
- 27:56Speaker 1: was a fourth person also who was arrested, Cody Johnson.

- 28:02Speaker 1: after the fact, and his ex wife. Williams's ex wife,
- 28:07Speaker 1: Jane Bolt, says that he was a family person. His
- 28:10Speaker 1: kids were always important. He has four children and oh
- 28:14Speaker 1: he has five children. She has four of them. So, yes,
- 28:18Speaker 1: is that crazy? That's an understatement. Yea. They said he
- 28:26Speaker 1: strangled him, and according to a witness. This witness alleges
- 28:30Speaker 1: that Vogel strangled william showed him the body which was
- 28:33Speaker 1: in the basement of his house, and the two of
- 28:36Speaker 1: them knew each other for several years. Wow, I mean
- 28:40Speaker 1: that means he really really hated that person. He hated
- 28:44Speaker 1: decided that person so much so that him being dead
- 28:47Speaker 1: wasn't enough. It's just like, get him out of my face,
- 28:50Speaker 1: let me get him. I gotta get him away from you.
- 28:52Speaker 1: I gotta make his body just disappear. Oh my goodness,

- 29:06Speaker 1: is a black man. You don't have to reprangled him,
- 29:08Speaker 1: put him in a ditch in Iowa, burned his body,

- 29:48Speaker 1: good morning, King, Good to see you. How you feeling today.
- 29:50Speaker 1: I'm doing great, man. I hope y'all and all y'all
- 29:53Speaker 1: loved ones are good ding these crazy times, bro, it's
- 29:55Speaker 1: been crazy. It's Dad having crazy. You know. I watched
- 29:59Speaker 1: you yesterday, Stephen Ay, like I do most days, and
- 30:02Speaker 1: I said to myself, man, you know, Stephen Ay said
- 30:05Speaker 1: that the Atlanta Falcons is the dumbest NFL team and
- 30:08Speaker 1: the head coach Dan Quinn needs to go. But I
- 30:11Speaker 1: didn't see you given the greatest NFL franchise of all time,
- 30:15Speaker 1: or franchise that you picked, the whin the NFC East,
- 30:18Speaker 1: the Cowboys, any credit for the comeback. That's that's why
- 30:22Speaker 1: you're trying to do right there. Y'all have damn Cowboys
- 30:24Speaker 1: fans everywhere make me sick. But oh, my lord, was
- 30:31Speaker 1: so sick. And the watch, I mean, listen, you got
- 30:33Speaker 1: five guys surrounding the football, five guys, and they were
- 30:36Speaker 1: treating it like they punted the football off to the
- 30:39Speaker 1: other team. And they were waiting for the football or
- 30:41Speaker 1: just go and go so they could get better. Y'all
- 30:43Speaker 1: know you're supposed to pounce on the football, and they
- 30:46Speaker 1: sat around and waited. And that's how Dallas won the game.
- 30:49Speaker 1: I thought it was one of the dumbest, if not
- 30:51Speaker 1: the dumbest play that I've seen by an NFL team.
- 30:54Speaker 1: But nevertheless, Dallas was balling Dak Prescott. Hopefully he'll get
- 30:57Speaker 1: his money in the whole bit because he deserved. So
- 31:00Speaker 1: what can I say? Dallas won the game? I want
- 31:03Speaker 1: to think those players for social distancing from that football
- 31:06Speaker 1: at that key moment that was very important. What do
- 31:09Speaker 1: you think about these head coaches getting fined for not
- 31:12Speaker 1: having their masks on properly. I think that it's a
- 31:16Speaker 1: it's a it's appropriate because the NFL has to be
- 31:19Speaker 1: a particularly got to understand that if you come down
- 31:22Speaker 1: with a few positive tests, it could ultimately stall a season.
- 31:26Speaker 1: And so the mentality is that the players are one
- 31:29Speaker 1: thing because they out there balling and they're getting tested
- 31:31Speaker 1: and what happened, even though the coaches are going through
- 31:33Speaker 1: the same thing. The bottom line is you want to
- 31:35Speaker 1: send the right message that you know what were your masks,
- 31:39Speaker 1: engage in social distancing to the best of your ability.
- 31:42Speaker 1: And the NFL has got to do agree. You know,
- 31:44Speaker 1: they've been doing a great job and doing just that,
- 31:46Speaker 1: and they don't want to get facts with the rules
- 31:48Speaker 1: because they don't want the season to be potentially compromised.
- 31:52Speaker 1: And it's something that the coaches have to adopt. So
- 31:54Speaker 1: I understand where they come from them right now, a
- 31:56Speaker 1: Greek freak. Let's let's start with the Greek freak. NBA.
- 31:59Speaker 1: Is he moving on? He staying with Milwaukee? Is he
- 32:01Speaker 1: going to my son thinks that he's going to the
- 32:04Speaker 1: Golden State. That's what my son, my son is betting
- 32:05Speaker 1: on that. What are your thoughts on the Greek Freak.
- 32:08Speaker 1: First of all, Golden State, I don't think they have
- 32:09Speaker 1: the resources in order to give them. You can look
- 32:12Speaker 1: at various other teams. I mean, he ain't going to
- 32:14Speaker 1: Atlanta on New York and my estimation Miami could be
- 32:17Speaker 1: a possibility. You never know what pat Riley could pull off.
- 32:20Speaker 1: I personally would like to see him in a bigger market,
- 32:22Speaker 1: but nevertheless, it really really comes down to whether or
- 32:26Speaker 1: not the Milwaukee Bucks can give him that bona fide
- 32:29Speaker 1: number two dudes. Middleton can ball. Don't get me wrong.
- 32:32Speaker 1: The problem is that he's not the guy that you
- 32:34Speaker 1: could rely upon night and night out to do what
- 32:37Speaker 1: he did. I think it was like in Games four
- 32:39Speaker 1: against Boston when he dropped like twenty six and ten.
- 32:42Speaker 1: Put it on my shoulders. We don't have the Greek Freak.
- 32:44Speaker 1: I'm gonna handle my business here. He's not that guy
- 32:47Speaker 1: on a night and night out basis. And if you're
- 32:49Speaker 1: the Greek Freak, that's what you need. Because with all
- 32:51Speaker 1: of his great numbers during the regular season, The bottom
- 32:54Speaker 1: line is that he's compromised as a perimeter shooter to
- 32:57Speaker 1: come playoff time defenses hustle back. They turn you into
- 33:00Speaker 1: a highf court offense, and you got to be able
- 33:02Speaker 1: to hit perimeter the shots. And if you can't do that,
- 33:05Speaker 1: you're not going to win a championship. So you need
- 33:07Speaker 1: somebody else to be able to do that. That's why
- 33:09Speaker 1: he wasn't my MVP. That's why I had Lebron James
- 33:12Speaker 1: as my m VP. I was one of the sixteen
- 33:14Speaker 1: dudes evidently who voted for Lebron James to be m
- 33:17Speaker 1: VP because he was bawling out all season long. They
- 33:20Speaker 1: had the number one season the West. And more importantly,
- 33:22Speaker 1: he's got a true approven track record. You know that
- 33:24Speaker 1: his limitations are not going to show up come playoff time.
- 33:28Speaker 1: Do you think we've reached a point where we've taken
- 33:30Speaker 1: we started to take Lebron James great, And granted, I
- 33:34Speaker 1: don't think so. I think that a lot of people
- 33:36Speaker 1: that love him so much interpreted that way because he
- 33:39Speaker 1: can be sensitive to that. And I don't blame him
- 33:42Speaker 1: because I'm one of the guys that listen. I don't
- 33:44Speaker 1: find myself to be ultra critical of him. I just
- 33:46Speaker 1: say he ain't to go. It's Michael Jordan's all day,
- 33:49Speaker 1: every day, because it matters to me in the road
- 33:52Speaker 1: to prosperity that you took. And so when you were
- 33:55Speaker 1: in the Eastern Conference and you had d Wade and
- 33:58Speaker 1: Chris Bosh before years, I just look at it from
- 34:02Speaker 1: that standpoint that I understand and respect the fact that
- 34:04Speaker 1: Lebron James is great. He's going to Mount Rushmore. I
- 34:07Speaker 1: think he's top two, top three all time. I'm just
- 34:10Speaker 1: never giving him the edge over Michael Jordan's. And because
- 34:13Speaker 1: that's the argument that is made against them, people perceive
- 34:17Speaker 1: you as hating on him because you won't give him
- 34:19Speaker 1: gold status. And last time I check, if I put
- 34:22Speaker 1: you on the Mount Rushmore of any sport, let alone basketball,
- 34:26Speaker 1: how the hell is that an insult. I'm calling you
- 34:28Speaker 1: top two, top three at the work all time. That's
- 34:32Speaker 1: not hating, that's just saying you ain't Michael Jordan. Now
- 34:35Speaker 1: we got to also talk about those Clippers. Now. Now,
- 34:38Speaker 1: when we talk about the Clippers, what should the Clippers do?
- 34:40Speaker 1: It seemed like the Clippers just have bad luck. That's bad.
- 34:43Speaker 1: Ju Jude is there's something wrong with the Clippers. Fat standpat,
- 34:47Speaker 1: don't change the thing. They choked. It was definitely a
- 34:49Speaker 1: choke job, Ain't no question about it. Kauwhi with the
- 34:52Speaker 1: crown dangling from his mirror, come into the siege. You
- 34:55Speaker 1: remember those commercials that he was doing for New Balance,
- 34:57Speaker 1: the crown dangling from his merger, from his vehicle convertible.
- 35:00Speaker 1: There's a new king that's arrived in La. All of
- 35:03Speaker 1: this stuff. We were look into it or looking forward
- 35:05Speaker 1: to this all year long. Well Lebron handled his business.
- 35:08Speaker 1: You didn't. You didn't show up. You had a three
- 35:11Speaker 1: one lead. Jamal Murray put on the show, The Joker
- 35:14Speaker 1: put on the show. They won games, you know, five, six,
- 35:18Speaker 1: and seven. They took you out. Jamara Murray drops forty
- 35:21Speaker 1: two in game seven. You're supposed to be an elite
- 35:23Speaker 1: defensive team. If you're struggling offensively, okay, fine, how the
- 35:26Speaker 1: hell does that explain him giving it to you in
- 35:28Speaker 1: a game seven? Him Paul George loved Paul George. That's
- 35:31Speaker 1: my man right there. But it was a choke job
- 35:33Speaker 1: by everybody involved. What I would say to you is this,
- 35:36Speaker 1: I'm the billionaire Steve Ballmer. I got a team in
- 35:39Speaker 1: La La, In La. Everybody wants to be in La.
- 35:42Speaker 1: If you don't like the taxes in LA, but we
- 35:44Speaker 1: love being in LA. That's a weather tax right there.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Nobody trying to leave. I'm gonna sit up there, I'm
- 35:49Speaker 1: gonna stand Pad. I'm gonna say, all right, it was
- 35:50Speaker 1: the bubble season got interrupted, Steimy the momentum. Some of
- 35:54Speaker 1: y'all didn't even want to be here. You wasn't focused.
- 35:57Speaker 1: Lou Williams two times six Man of the Year. We
- 36:00Speaker 1: all know Lemon Pepper, Lou. We know what happened with Magic.
- 36:02Speaker 1: Who did him? Going there? That was? It's smart, all right,
- 36:04Speaker 1: But he's a good brother. And the people make mistakes.
- 36:07Speaker 1: You move on from there. They got the talent. I
- 36:10Speaker 1: make them stand Pat. I keep everybody in place, including
- 36:14Speaker 1: the coaches, and I let them know, you love La.
- 36:16Speaker 1: You want to leave because I promise you you don't
- 36:19Speaker 1: win this year. I'm getting all of y'all up out
- 36:21Speaker 1: of here. That's what I do. And I put them
- 36:24Speaker 1: on notice, and I make every single person on that
- 36:26Speaker 1: team come back to claim what should have been. There
- 36:29Speaker 1: is in a lot of people's eyes this season. Do
- 36:32Speaker 1: you think that if the Lakers win this year, but
- 36:34Speaker 1: which I think they will. Is there an asterisk on
- 36:37Speaker 1: the championship this season? Not to me? There's something to
- 36:40Speaker 1: be said about exercising the proper level of discipline. Yeah,
- 36:44Speaker 1: we understand that there was a pandemic and the stall
- 36:46Speaker 1: of the season, but remember the season was never canceled,
- 36:49Speaker 1: it was postponed. So it's incumbent upon you to stay ready,
- 36:53Speaker 1: be prepared, do what you gotta do to come ready
- 36:55Speaker 1: to ball. This is definitely a legitimate champion whoever comes
- 36:58Speaker 1: out of this. All right, you got more with Stephen A.
- 37:01Speaker 1: Smith when we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 37:03Speaker 1: Go more ej envy angela yee. Charlomagne, the gay we
- 37:07Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Stephen A. Smith. Charlomagne.
- 37:11Speaker 1: You know, I wanted to ask you, because I didn't
- 37:12Speaker 1: see this yesterday, how did y'all handle the situation with
- 37:16Speaker 1: Lebron's son on camera smoking? Did y'all touch that at all?
- 37:19Speaker 1: We didn't touch that. We didn't touch that at all.
- 37:21Speaker 1: First of all, I really didn't even know about it.
- 37:23Speaker 1: I'm not gonna front I didn't know about it. But secondly,
- 37:26Speaker 1: and more importantly, Chances are Charlomagne I wouldn't have said anything.
- 37:29Speaker 1: You know, that's his kid, and I'm very sensitive to
- 37:32Speaker 1: stuff like that. I'm one of those guys that I
- 37:33Speaker 1: really have a problem. But how much people publicize him
- 37:37Speaker 1: when he's out there playing ball and stuff like that,
- 37:39Speaker 1: because his dad is still playing and so I don't
- 37:42Speaker 1: like to invite that kind of scrutiny on the kid.
- 37:44Speaker 1: Let the kid be a kid as much as we
- 37:46Speaker 1: possibly can. If you see him balling out out there
- 37:49Speaker 1: and you want to comment about his game a little
- 37:51Speaker 1: bit of something, that's one thing. But I tried. You know,
- 37:55Speaker 1: I do everything that I can to avoid talking about
- 37:58Speaker 1: people's families and things of that nature, people's personal business
- 38:02Speaker 1: and stuff like that. It is unfortunately you end up
- 38:04Speaker 1: in a police plotters. Sometimes we have no choice. But
- 38:07Speaker 1: outside of that, you know what, you just do what
- 38:09Speaker 1: you can to make sure you remind everybody you human First,
- 38:12Speaker 1: He's a kid, and obviously it wasn't the wisest thing
- 38:15Speaker 1: to do if that happened. But you know, we've all
- 38:18Speaker 1: been there, we've all made our mistakes, and you know
- 38:21Speaker 1: his dad will handle that. That's not for me or
- 38:23Speaker 1: anybody else. To get into as far as I'm concerned.
- 38:25Speaker 1: I just had one last question too, about Maria Taylor
- 38:28Speaker 1: from ESPN and the comments the reporter that actually got
- 38:32Speaker 1: fired from his job for tweeting about her outfit. So
- 38:36Speaker 1: how much more difficult do you find that it is
- 38:39Speaker 1: for women who gets scrutinized who are actually covering sports.
- 38:43Speaker 1: It's always been more difficult for women to be quite
- 38:45Speaker 1: honest with you. I know, I will never be away
- 38:48Speaker 1: from saying a thing, and there's not much harder in
- 38:51Speaker 1: America than being a black man, but being a black
- 38:53Speaker 1: woman obviously is incredibly incredibly difficult as well. Maria is
- 38:57Speaker 1: class besonified. She's an incredible Allen. She's somebody that I
- 39:01Speaker 1: know pretty well in this business. She's a star on
- 39:05Speaker 1: the rise. Unfortunately, that reporter decided, that radio host decided
- 39:09Speaker 1: to do what he did, and he lost his job
- 39:12Speaker 1: because of it. Because you just find yourself scratching your
- 39:15Speaker 1: head at the kind of things that are on people's mind,
- 39:18Speaker 1: and more importantly, their willingness to go out there and
- 39:21Speaker 1: just say it. I mean, it's bad enough for you're
- 39:23Speaker 1: thinking that way, but how about shutting the hell up
- 39:25Speaker 1: and not saying the damn word of just minding your business.
- 39:28Speaker 1: But when it comes to women in this business, there's
- 39:31Speaker 1: so many stars. I mean, Jamal Hill was a sensational
- 39:34Speaker 1: talent for ESPN, and I miss her being at the network.
- 39:39Speaker 1: Kerry Champion used to host First Take. She's a sensational talent.
- 39:43Speaker 1: I miss her being at the network. The list goes
- 39:45Speaker 1: on and on, but I would say this, just as
- 39:48Speaker 1: black men have to watch every single thing that we
- 39:53Speaker 1: do and be mindful and cognizant of the stereotypes and
- 39:57Speaker 1: things of that nature that people are going to put
- 39:59Speaker 1: out there about us, women have to do the same thing.
- 40:02Speaker 1: That's not the same Maria Tylor did anything wrong, because
- 40:04Speaker 1: she did not. But it's just pointing out that you
- 40:07Speaker 1: got people out there that have agenders and their hell
- 40:10Speaker 1: bent on stimming you at every single term. Be mindful
- 40:15Speaker 1: of that because they're just giving you an indication of
- 40:18Speaker 1: what other people in the positions of power might be thinking,
- 40:21Speaker 1: but might be smart enough not to say. Now, this
- 40:24Speaker 1: is HBCU week, and I'm noticing that a lot of
- 40:27Speaker 1: players are going to HBCUs a lot of athletes are
- 40:30Speaker 1: deciding not to go to your typical schools and going
- 40:33Speaker 1: to HBCUs. What's your thoughts on that? I love it myself,
- 40:37Speaker 1: what are your thoughts. I'm loving it as a as
- 40:39Speaker 1: a graduate of what's the Salem State, which is an HBCU. Obviously,
- 40:42Speaker 1: I'm loving that as well. And you know it's it's
- 40:45Speaker 1: especially that cat that elected to go to Howard University.
- 40:48Speaker 1: He's got tremendous potential. He can be a lot of
- 40:50Speaker 1: you picking the NBA draft, you know. So I think
- 40:54Speaker 1: that was a great thing as well. And you know,
- 40:56Speaker 1: HBCU Week is something that we did last year. We
- 40:59Speaker 1: had over twelve hundred people registered, gave out four million
- 41:02Speaker 1: dollars in scholarships last year. This year, over five thousand
- 41:06Speaker 1: people have already preregistered. And so I mean, when when
- 41:10Speaker 1: you look at it from that perspective and think about
- 41:12Speaker 1: the conduct of opportunities that are available. I tell people
- 41:15Speaker 1: this all the time. Me going to an HBCU, I
- 41:19Speaker 1: was surrounded by support. And you can't you can't put
- 41:23Speaker 1: a price tag on that. You can't measure the significance
- 41:26Speaker 1: of that. Just imagine. Like I said, y'all seem to
- 41:28Speaker 1: have great, great relationships. That's why y'all show is so great.
- 41:31Speaker 1: Imagine coming to work every day with somebody that you
- 41:34Speaker 1: don't like, you don't get along with, you don't bob with,
- 41:37Speaker 1: you have no chemistry with. It just makes that climb
- 41:40Speaker 1: that much harder. Well, it's the same that applies to
- 41:42Speaker 1: young kids, particularly when they're in pursuit of their education.
- 41:45Speaker 1: If you go to a university and you don't have
- 41:47Speaker 1: that support, based, that foundation, those people to be cheerleaders
- 41:51Speaker 1: and mentors and to lift you up when you fall,
- 41:54Speaker 1: the task or the road to prosperity can be significantly
- 41:57Speaker 1: harder to claw your way through. And so for me
- 42:00Speaker 1: going to an HPCU, that's what it did for me,
- 42:02Speaker 1: and that's what I try to preach about it to everybody.
- 42:05Speaker 1: That's the joy of going to HBCUs. People who look
- 42:07Speaker 1: like you, people who share your cocial backup identity and
- 42:11Speaker 1: all of that stuff, who know what you're going through,
- 42:13Speaker 1: who understand it, who are there to lift you up,
- 42:15Speaker 1: to motivate you, to push you. All of those different
- 42:18Speaker 1: things are incredibly important. That add to me is the
- 42:20Speaker 1: significance of an HBCU. Of course the education comes with it.
- 42:23Speaker 1: You don't get all of that, but that to me
- 42:25Speaker 1: is what the kids you mentioned, my core maker and
- 42:28Speaker 1: I know you got to go in a few but
- 42:29Speaker 1: you mentioned my cure maker. How can college athletes committing
- 42:32Speaker 1: to HBCUs, you know, change things for HBCUs. Well, I
- 42:36Speaker 1: think it's the attention. I think that the athletes themselves.
- 42:39Speaker 1: We all know that sports assist in bringing that level
- 42:42Speaker 1: of attention to an institution university. When you think about it,
- 42:45Speaker 1: if you think about North Carolina, what you think about
- 42:47Speaker 1: thinking about basketball, think about Alabama, you thinking about football.
- 42:50Speaker 1: There's a whole bunch of institutions that offer similar curriculums.
- 42:54Speaker 1: But what really illuminates a university in the mind's eye
- 42:58Speaker 1: is how they resonate in the schools world. And so
- 43:00Speaker 1: because of that, just imagine Cats electing to go to AHCU.
- 43:04Speaker 1: When you do that, particularly if you have any kind
- 43:07Speaker 1: of profile, it forces attention to gravitate towards you, and
- 43:11Speaker 1: they can't gravitate towards you without mentioning the school that
- 43:14Speaker 1: you're attending. So I just look at it from that perspective,
- 43:17Speaker 1: and I think it's all about the attention to profile.
- 43:19Speaker 1: That's where athletes going to those institutions can really really help.
- 43:22Speaker 1: Just raising the profile of HBCUs to highlight that you
- 43:26Speaker 1: can indeed get an education from there. You can indeed
- 43:28Speaker 1: go up against IVY leagues and smoke them. This is
- 43:31Speaker 1: what I do every day. Max Kellman graduated from Columbia.
- 43:34Speaker 1: I graduated from winniver I was gonna make sure, how
- 43:38Speaker 1: do we make sure these HBCUs get the proper coverage
- 43:41Speaker 1: because that's the one thing kids are worried about. They
- 43:42Speaker 1: want to make sure they get the coverage of some
- 43:44Speaker 1: of these other schools, whether it's on TV, so they
- 43:46Speaker 1: can get the rink in and they can get in
- 43:48Speaker 1: the leagues and they can get those opportunities. I think
- 43:50Speaker 1: that's the only fair a lot of these students have.
- 43:52Speaker 1: We're going to HBCU. Well, it's a legitimate fair, and
- 43:55Speaker 1: that's something that I've spoken about in the past. But
- 43:57Speaker 1: how you all set that as about making sure that
- 44:00Speaker 1: you go there, you ball, you perform, because when you perform,
- 44:03Speaker 1: the attention will gravitate to you, and then you gotta
- 44:06Speaker 1: hope that that student is mindful enough to turn around
- 44:08Speaker 1: and say, Okay, let me make sure that I mentioned
- 44:11Speaker 1: the importance of being here. It's HBC using I highlight
- 44:14Speaker 1: what it's done for my life. My fugere et cetera,
- 44:17Speaker 1: et cetera. And that's how it goes about because you're
- 44:19Speaker 1: operating behind the eight ball from the standpoint that those
- 44:21Speaker 1: other institutions d once colleges the big time to eve
- 44:24Speaker 1: in college they have the television contracts. That's really where
- 44:27Speaker 1: it stands out, even for college football right now. Just
- 44:29Speaker 1: think about this for a second. Most of college football
- 44:32Speaker 1: said we're not going to take the risk, we're not
- 44:33Speaker 1: going to have a season this year due to the
- 44:35Speaker 1: coronavirus pandemic. But then ain't stopping the SEC, the ACC,
- 44:39Speaker 1: the Big twelve, the Pac twelve, the big Then ain't
- 44:41Speaker 1: stopping them now? Why because there's so much money to
- 44:44Speaker 1: be made, particularly from the television networks that they can't
- 44:48Speaker 1: they can't help but continue to go forward and play
- 44:51Speaker 1: because to them, it's worth the risk. When you are
- 44:54Speaker 1: at an HBCU, obviously the television networks and what have
- 44:57Speaker 1: you hope they will gravitate towards you, but it's going
- 45:00Speaker 1: to be up and coming upon you to perform and
- 45:03Speaker 1: to make sure you do what you can to bring
- 45:04Speaker 1: attention to the HBC. I'm on TV every day and
- 45:07Speaker 1: what do I do? I bring attention to wins to
- 45:09Speaker 1: Salem State and HBCUs every chance I get, because I
- 45:12Speaker 1: understand the importance of articulating that message. All right, well
- 45:15Speaker 1: don't move. We got more with Stephen A. Smith. It
- 45:16Speaker 1: is the Breakfast Club gomoning. I think everybody is DJ
- 45:21Speaker 1: Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast
- 45:24Speaker 1: Club was still kicking it with Stephen A. Smith, Charlomagne,
- 45:27Speaker 1: Steven A couple more questions where you get out of here.
- 45:29Speaker 1: You mentioned Max Kellerman and how you smoke him every day.
- 45:32Speaker 1: Sometimes I get the feeling that you really don't like
- 45:35Speaker 1: Max Kellerman, like you really disgusted by so many things
- 45:38Speaker 1: that come out of his mouth. Is that true? Well,
- 45:40Speaker 1: let me say this. I do it's false. I actually
- 45:43Speaker 1: do like him a lot. He is a really, really
- 45:46Speaker 1: good guy. But you are right when you say sometimes
- 45:49Speaker 1: I do get February very disgusted with this kind of
- 45:51Speaker 1: stuff that comes out of his mouth, you know, And
- 45:53Speaker 1: I'm not apologizing for that. That's my man, He's my partner,
- 45:56Speaker 1: our first take. He does a hell of a job.
- 45:59Speaker 1: He's incredibly intelligent. All of that stuff is true, and
- 46:03Speaker 1: we all noticed we should disagree with somebody, you know,
- 46:06Speaker 1: and still don't hate him. We just disagree with them.
- 46:09Speaker 1: But there are times that he speaks and you know,
- 46:12Speaker 1: it's like he's trying. And I've told him this before,
- 46:15Speaker 1: you trying to act like your brother. I don't give
- 46:17Speaker 1: a damn who you are. You ain't that you understand,
- 46:20Speaker 1: you don't have, you don't really know. And so there
- 46:23Speaker 1: have been times where I have felt the need to
- 46:26Speaker 1: check him on that matter. But that's all. It's like
- 46:29Speaker 1: his heart is in the right place. But he's the
- 46:32Speaker 1: kind of person that he reads a lot, highly intelligent,
- 46:35Speaker 1: and he thinks that reading and that knowledge gives him
- 46:38Speaker 1: a level of expertise that myself, you, or DJ and
- 46:43Speaker 1: V or anybody else might have. And I'm like, nah,
- 46:46Speaker 1: that's not true. There's certain things about our experience you
- 46:50Speaker 1: can't get in the book. And I'm not saying he
- 46:52Speaker 1: says that literally or feels that way literally, but with
- 46:55Speaker 1: some of the comments he comes across that way. And
- 46:57Speaker 1: if I get annoyed, I will check him. But then
- 47:00Speaker 1: I will I will, I will go and I will
- 47:02Speaker 1: talk to him after if necessary, and I'll always let
- 47:05Speaker 1: them know. You know, we teammates. I got you. But again,
- 47:08Speaker 1: just like you would disagree with me if I said
- 47:10Speaker 1: something you know about that's relevant to the Jewish community,
- 47:13Speaker 1: if I think you said something out of pocket that's
- 47:15Speaker 1: pertaining to the black community, I'm gonna let you know.
- 47:18Speaker 1: And I think a lot of times Charlemagne he looks
- 47:20Speaker 1: at things from the very altruistic perspective. He looks at
- 47:23Speaker 1: things about the way, and he admitted this, he looks
- 47:25Speaker 1: at things the way they should be. I look at
- 47:28Speaker 1: things the way they are. Or I'm mindful of saying
- 47:31Speaker 1: stuff and promoting and pushing stuff that I think are
- 47:35Speaker 1: gonna lead black people down a dead end path or
- 47:38Speaker 1: something even worse. I might know that we're absolutely right,
- 47:42Speaker 1: but I'm like, wait a minute, it's because you got
- 47:44Speaker 1: to think about the forest from the trees. If Charlemagne
- 47:46Speaker 1: is going down, I'm cool with Charlemagne. Well guess what.
- 47:48Speaker 1: I got a lot of respect for this brother. If
- 47:50Speaker 1: I see you doing something and I think that that's
- 47:53Speaker 1: gonna hurt you, even if I know you're right, I'm
- 47:55Speaker 1: gonna say, yo, bro, Marathon Sprint, make a decision. You're
- 47:59Speaker 1: doing this that's not That might not be the way
- 48:02Speaker 1: you want to go because you might get that off
- 48:04Speaker 1: your chest, but it might cost you here. He's the
- 48:07Speaker 1: type of person that says, damn all of that, And
- 48:09Speaker 1: I'm like, that's easy for you to say because you
- 48:11Speaker 1: ain't black, so you don't know. But I do know,
- 48:15Speaker 1: so fall back. And there have been times and I
- 48:18Speaker 1: and our time with one another, that I've had to
- 48:21Speaker 1: say that to him. But it's always knowing that as
- 48:23Speaker 1: hard as in the right place, that he's a really
- 48:25Speaker 1: good brother, um, and I'm I'm happy to be working
- 48:29Speaker 1: with him. He used to be a rapper back in
- 48:31Speaker 1: the day. Yeah, I heard about that. You know, you know,
- 48:34Speaker 1: you always got some with them, and I want to
- 48:36Speaker 1: be you know, you know you get all that, but
- 48:40Speaker 1: you damn sure a rap better than me. I never
- 48:42Speaker 1: tried to, So I ain't like now now now as
- 48:45Speaker 1: your oldg partner coming back to First Take, is Skip
- 48:49Speaker 1: Bail is coming back to First Take. That's what we're
- 48:51Speaker 1: hearing out him. No, he's not like you can say
- 48:58Speaker 1: that without a shadow of a doubt. Max is under
- 49:01Speaker 1: contract for the next two and a half years at
- 49:03Speaker 1: a minimum. I think Skip, if I remember correctly, I
- 49:06Speaker 1: thought this contract was up. He's about to stand a
- 49:08Speaker 1: new deal. That doesn't mean that we can't reunite in
- 49:12Speaker 1: some capacity somewhere down the line, because there's a lot
- 49:14Speaker 1: of things that I got planned for myself, and that's
- 49:18Speaker 1: still my brother from another mother. I got a lot
- 49:20Speaker 1: of love him. Remember he's the one that brought me
- 49:22Speaker 1: the First Take, and so you know, I'm very mindful
- 49:25Speaker 1: of that, and we're still very close, even though I
- 49:27Speaker 1: always disagree with him. But in the end, the bottom
- 49:31Speaker 1: line is that he got his thing going on. I
- 49:33Speaker 1: got my thing going on. In terms of him coming
- 49:36Speaker 1: back to First Take, I can't see that happening in
- 49:38Speaker 1: the near future, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility
- 49:41Speaker 1: that he and I will reunite in some capacity down
- 49:45Speaker 1: the line. I just don't think it'll be First Take.
- 49:47Speaker 1: Right now, Max and I are Roland. We're still number one,
- 49:50Speaker 1: and I've been number one in the mornings for the
- 49:53Speaker 1: last six and a half seven years, So I'm gonna
- 49:55Speaker 1: roll with that. There's no reason to look at look
- 49:57Speaker 1: in any other direction. But again, I'm not limiting my
- 50:00Speaker 1: opportunities to just First Take. But in terms of your
- 50:03Speaker 1: question about First Take, directly, it would be being Max.
- 50:07Speaker 1: But don't rule out skipping our reuniting in some capacity
- 50:10Speaker 1: in the future who knows all right, Well, we appreciate
- 50:14Speaker 1: you joining us, brother, Thank you so much. Can y'all
- 50:18Speaker 1: make sure to send everybody to hbcuweek dot org. Could
- 50:21Speaker 1: y'all do that for me? Please show just hbcuweek dot org.
- 50:28Speaker 1: We already got over five thousand people registered. We raised
- 50:30Speaker 1: over four million dollars last year and two hours. We're
- 50:33Speaker 1: gonna plan on doing some big things this week as well. Man,
- 50:36Speaker 1: I appreciate y'all so much. Keep up the great work
- 50:39Speaker 1: all rank you. Thank you so much. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 50:43Speaker 1: Good morning. This is the Rule Report with angelin you listen. No, yes,
- 50:53Speaker 1: So Quavo is not feeling academics right now, and I
- 50:57Speaker 1: can't blame them. Academics are talking crazy about Sweetie and
- 51:00Speaker 1: you know that's Quevo's girlfriend. And here's what academics had
- 51:04Speaker 1: to say. Let me tell you why why Sweetie is trash?
- 51:07Speaker 1: To me, Sweetie, it's only a cute face. That number
- 51:10Speaker 1: one doesn't right, But a lot of women do it, don't.
- 51:12Speaker 1: It's fine. But she's remaking old songs. She basically taking
- 51:17Speaker 1: an old song that was already a hit and making
- 51:19Speaker 1: a girl version and putting it out do we call
- 51:21Speaker 1: that talking crazy though. I mean, if your woman is
- 51:24Speaker 1: an artist and she's getting critiqued on her music, you
- 51:27Speaker 1: may not like it, but it's nothing to want to
- 51:29Speaker 1: fight a person over. I don't think I was talking crazy.
- 51:33Speaker 1: He's critiquing music, and if he was talking about her
- 51:35Speaker 1: appearance or something something other than music, I get it.
- 51:37Speaker 1: But just he did also talk about her appearance, though,
- 51:39Speaker 1: I mean not in a negative way. She was just
- 51:41Speaker 1: a pretty face and she couldn't right something like that.
- 51:43Speaker 1: That's just such a way to demean a woman too,
- 51:45Speaker 1: as an artist. And then he said most female artist.
- 51:48Speaker 1: You know. I think that was all just I didn't
- 51:51Speaker 1: like that as a woman. I mean it was about
- 51:55Speaker 1: it was about the music though, from what I heard
- 51:58Speaker 1: just now. Anyway, But can you blame Quabo for being mad? No,
- 52:02Speaker 1: I can't blame Yeah, I don't. I mean, I can
- 52:04Speaker 1: understand him being upset, but he's been in the industry
- 52:07Speaker 1: long enough to know that people are going to critique
- 52:09Speaker 1: your music. And I mean, even if it's your woman,
- 52:11Speaker 1: they're going to critique your your woman's music too. I
- 52:13Speaker 1: can understand and being upset, but nothing to like. Well,
- 52:16Speaker 1: I think he should have been I think you should
- 52:17Speaker 1: anticipate that. He didn't say he was gonna beat him up.
- 52:19Speaker 1: Here's what he said, pull up and chop it up
- 52:21Speaker 1: like a man. I promise, I ain't gonna hit you.
- 52:24Speaker 1: Just want to play you these new Megos records since
- 52:26Speaker 1: you think is sweet, and stop bashing my girl. She's
- 52:28Speaker 1: a female. But if I tell her going your iss,
- 52:31Speaker 1: she would so what the trash word? Internet girl? He
- 52:35Speaker 1: did put the fist emoji too, though. Ain't gonna hit you? Yeah,
- 52:41Speaker 1: that's classic. Hey, come outside, I just want to talk, bro,
- 52:44Speaker 1: I want to talk. I just want to talk. Come out, sorry,
- 52:46Speaker 1: real quickly. I want to talk to you. Man. All right. Well,
- 52:49Speaker 1: academics also had something to say about the Megos. Megos
- 52:52Speaker 1: absolutely on the clock. It was the hottest group on Earth,
- 52:55Speaker 1: after Bat and Boogee, after really successful one of really
- 52:58Speaker 1: great singles. Then at that point they started licensing and
- 53:01Speaker 1: selling the cool to everybody else. We saw them with
- 53:04Speaker 1: football players there, We saw them doing this and by
- 53:06Speaker 1: the way, great business moves. But with the Megos they
- 53:08Speaker 1: were a street rap group. We were using these balls
- 53:11Speaker 1: in the band o. This that third all of a sudden,
- 53:13Speaker 1: all of us that they're only in the Hollywood Hills,
- 53:16Speaker 1: Beverly Hills. They looked like they've lost the street presence
- 53:18Speaker 1: and street essence. I don't agree with that either, Like
- 53:21Speaker 1: I don't think the Megos and fell off. We live
- 53:23Speaker 1: in an era where if you not read hot, if
- 53:25Speaker 1: you're not all over the radio, you know you're not
- 53:29Speaker 1: dropping music every week, people just think you fell off,
- 53:32Speaker 1: Like you can't just take a break. The Megos have
- 53:34Speaker 1: been out here for a long time. How long may
- 53:37Speaker 1: they do have a new They do have a record
- 53:39Speaker 1: performed they did performing at the iHeart Radio Music Festival.
- 53:42Speaker 1: It's called Burken. Listen to this. She wanted I tell
- 53:51Speaker 1: the fool one hundred thousand forward bag hunted. That's a
- 53:54Speaker 1: whole lot of cash. I bought a watching made of
- 53:56Speaker 1: glass and caught the cooper working drash about the bag
- 54:00Speaker 1: and made them bad. They're saying someone fell off is
- 54:08Speaker 1: very very, very very harsh. They're just not the red
- 54:11Speaker 1: hot act of the moment. But to say they fell off, like, nah,
- 54:16Speaker 1: come on, man, he's been around for a long time.
- 54:19Speaker 1: Academics also tweeted out by the way, I love Quevo
- 54:21Speaker 1: take off an offset I critique for them to elevate
- 54:24Speaker 1: certainly not hate being a fan of them for a
- 54:26Speaker 1: long time, being a fan that was sometimes challenging the
- 54:28Speaker 1: artists you love. That's that's very true too, Like I mean,
- 54:32Speaker 1: we can all we're entitled to have an opinion on
- 54:35Speaker 1: the music, good or bad. Once you release it to
- 54:37Speaker 1: the public, it's up to us to decide whether we
- 54:39Speaker 1: like it ran and those discussions are gonna happen. And
- 54:42Speaker 1: then can't you just say I didn't like the new
- 54:46Speaker 1: single they just put out instead of the same day
- 54:48Speaker 1: like you said, fell off. You gotta get people time.
- 54:51Speaker 1: I critiques, You could critique. You could say whatever you
- 54:55Speaker 1: want to say about a person's project, a person's album,
- 54:57Speaker 1: or persons anything, and then artists can reply how they
- 55:00Speaker 1: want to apply, like right, academics when it comes to
- 55:04Speaker 1: you know, absolutely limited or anything. He either is charlemagneither's
- 55:07Speaker 1: me either, as you it's how we feel about a record,
- 55:09Speaker 1: and your regular people. It's people on social media like
- 55:12Speaker 1: they are worse more than anybody. And by the way,
- 55:15Speaker 1: your critique can be critiqued too, just like academics. Critique
- 55:18Speaker 1: is being critiqued right right now by us. All right now,
- 55:21Speaker 1: let's talk about DJ Boof. He did an Instagram live session.
- 55:24Speaker 1: You know, he was Wendy Williams DJ. Just recently as
- 55:28Speaker 1: us one has took over that spot. We're not sure
- 55:31Speaker 1: what happened with DJ Booth and Wendy Williams, but he
- 55:34Speaker 1: went on live to let us know that there was
- 55:36Speaker 1: some type of dirty laundry situation going on. Here's what
- 55:39Speaker 1: he said about to be crazy. Yoh God, don't like
- 55:43Speaker 1: ugly and this little DJ is a powerful I ain't
- 55:48Speaker 1: know I was this powerful because I ain't know I
- 55:50Speaker 1: had this bunch of weight. Bro. I feel thankful. I'm blessed.
- 55:54Speaker 1: You know, you never know who really did you? Yo?
- 55:58Speaker 1: And when I say it's about to be crazy, it's
- 56:02Speaker 1: about to be crazy. I don't got the juice. I
- 56:07Speaker 1: don't got the tea, I got the coffee. Who was
- 56:11Speaker 1: Booth talking about in that video? Is he talking? And
- 56:13Speaker 1: by the way, I want that would be a great
- 56:16Speaker 1: time for me. Sure it's not Wendy. I'm sure that
- 56:19Speaker 1: I do have a coffee company called Coffee uplifts people.
- 56:22Speaker 1: Since people want to spill the coffee, you know, make
- 56:24Speaker 1: sure you check us out. But yes, continue you should sponsor.
- 56:27Speaker 1: I'm just wondering who this one is. He talking about
- 56:29Speaker 1: in that video, you should talk, you should sponsor DJ Booth.
- 56:31Speaker 1: That'd be a great sponsor right now. You because I've
- 56:33Speaker 1: never heard some coffee coffee. Yeah, she's definitely just spilling
- 56:37Speaker 1: the coffee, all right, we're in Is that because coffee
- 56:41Speaker 1: is stronger than tea? Maybe it can be mmmmm. I
- 56:46Speaker 1: just want to know who moves talking about in that video?
- 56:47Speaker 1: Who thought about this one? Are Wendy, I'm sure Wendy,
- 56:51Speaker 1: I'm sure. Yeah. I don't know if he does he
- 56:53Speaker 1: know some tea on well, we don't know, we don't,
- 56:56Speaker 1: we don't know. I'm sure he does. Well. All I
- 56:59Speaker 1: know is if I was that bar Mercury or you know,
- 57:03Speaker 1: lions Gate or whoever is behind that situation, I would
- 57:07Speaker 1: make sure Boof has been paid accordingly and I would
- 57:09Speaker 1: have maked. I don't make sure. I would have make
- 57:13Speaker 1: sure Boof Boof Boof Sufferance was was was intact. That's
- 57:18Speaker 1: what I'm sure. I'm sure he knows what the bodies are.
- 57:20Speaker 1: I'm sure he knows what the bodies are. And you
- 57:22Speaker 1: don't want to do you think he was what y'all
- 57:24Speaker 1: think he was wrong for exposing that though? If he
- 57:28Speaker 1: was done dirty. We don't know what body, Yeah, we
- 57:30Speaker 1: don't know what happened in that situation. But if he's done,
- 57:33Speaker 1: you know, nobody's wrong to be telling that story and
- 57:37Speaker 1: don't And back in New York then they say Boofing
- 57:39Speaker 1: was sticking something up. Ye, yes, Boofing was sticking something up.
- 57:43Speaker 1: Your boy. Don't want Booth? Okay, So you don't want
- 57:45Speaker 1: Booth to pull something out of all right? You want
- 57:50Speaker 1: him to keep all those skeletons in his Boofing, all right,
- 57:55Speaker 1: don't let Booth pull out all right? Well, you know
- 57:58Speaker 1: Booth is gonna be okay regardless, so are we's gonna
- 58:00Speaker 1: be fun? You see how this lays out the corporate
- 58:05Speaker 1: America just can't do people dirty when you do people dirty? Okay, Yeah,
- 58:10Speaker 1: you just don't want him to pull up, all right, y'all.
- 58:13Speaker 1: I hope y'all been doing right by DJ Booth, debt
- 58:15Speaker 1: by American and lions Gate, and I really do all right.
- 58:18Speaker 1: We don't forget ask he's coming up next hour eight
- 58:20Speaker 1: hundred five eight five one five one. If you need
- 58:23Speaker 1: relationship advice to any type of advice, you could get
- 58:25Speaker 1: on the phone lines right now. But donkey today who
- 58:28Speaker 1: are giving that donkey to Charlemagne. I need this the
- 58:30Speaker 1: seat chief executive of Wells Fargo, Charles Sharft, to come
- 58:34Speaker 1: to the front of the congregation. There the lesson to
- 58:37Speaker 1: be learned here today is a teachable moment corporate America.
- 58:40Speaker 1: Listen up, all right, we'll get into that next. It's
- 58:42Speaker 1: the breakfast Club. Good morning. Don't at the gate you
- 58:47Speaker 1: get drunk, you are, I'm gonna fatt and all that
- 58:58Speaker 1: around your man to Dolten Blowers. Man. They're waited with
- 59:02Speaker 1: Charlomaye to top these gloves to make a judgment. Who
- 59:05Speaker 1: was going to be on the Donkey of the day.
- 59:07Speaker 1: They chose you because the breakfast club, bitch you, Who's
- 59:10Speaker 1: donkey of the day today? Donkey of today from Wednesday,
- 59:13Speaker 1: September twenty third goes to Wells Fargo and Co. Chief
- 59:17Speaker 1: executive Charles Sharf. Now Charles Sharf pissed off some black
- 59:21Speaker 1: employees this summer. You know what, I don't know if
- 59:24Speaker 1: pissed off the employees is the correct term. It's more
- 59:26Speaker 1: like black employees are exhausted, all right. That's what whiteness
- 59:30Speaker 1: can be. Exhausting. We get fatigued during these fights. It's
- 59:34Speaker 1: been a long, long fight, and one thing about the
- 59:37Speaker 1: fight against systemic racism, It's gonna always come down to stamina,
- 59:41Speaker 1: and we is tired. Okay, Well, Charles Sharf exhausted black
- 59:45Speaker 1: folks yet again this summer on his Zoom meeting. Oh lord, now,
- 59:50Speaker 1: I know my brothers and sisters wexhausting all by itself.
- 59:54Speaker 1: But Charles, he made all of us sleepy when he
- 59:57Speaker 1: was discussing Wells Fargo not being able to reach its
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: diversity goals because there was not enough qualified minority talent.
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: I re pete. Okay, Charles Sharf, Wells Fargo chief executive said,
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: Wells Fargo is not able to reach its diversity goals
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: because there's not enough qualified minority talent. Case ura, Sara. Now,
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: imagine a company wide memo goes out announcing diversity initiatives
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: as nationwide protests are breaking out over George Floyd and
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: your company. In this case, Wells Fargo says, and I quote, well,
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: it might sound like an excuse, unfortunate reality is that
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: there is a very limited pool of black talent to
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: recruit from. Basically, we would love to put some of
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: you negroes in leadership positions, but y'all simply don't exist.
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: Can you imagine an NBA executive saying that, of course
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: she can't because it doesn't happen. Even when the talent
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: pool is so called low in the draft, they will
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: draft someone, all right, they will draft a lot of people.
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: You know, somebody gets to opportunity. Hell, Charles, all those
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: mediocre Mannaids flavored mammals, y'all putting leadership positions on a
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: regular basis, y'all will scrape the bottom of the hellman's
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: jar when it's empty to be able to spread death
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: thick cold sauce all over a company. But when it
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: comes to black folks, we simply don't exist. Story of
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: our lives now, Charles. Let me use myself as an example.
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: In twenty sixteen, I tweeted out, would be dope if
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: a young black or Hispanic woke woman. I even put
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: woke in quotation use social media to create a platform
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: to be a voice like Tommy Lauren did. Yes, I
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: posted that totally tone deaf tweet for one reason, all
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: those women already existed. Not only did they already exist,
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: I was already working and had worked with several of them, Charles,
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: All that qualified minority talent that you are saying doesn't exist.
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: Trust me, it does. That limited pool of black talent
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: that you are saying is dry is full. You just
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: don't have the creative eye to see it, because all
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: you do is see America through a white lens. This
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: is what happens when you have white privileged pulposts. Okay,
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: for all those folks who want to make the white
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: in their eyes wider, this is how you do it.
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: Be a white person in a leadership position at a
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: company and be asked to find black talent. I agree
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: with AOC who tweeted out yesterday, perhaps it's the CEO
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: of Wells Fargo who lacks the talent to recruit black workers.
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: I also agree with Ken Bacon, a former mortgage industry
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: executive who was on the boards of Comcast, Ally Financial,
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: and well Tower, Inc. He just quoted in this NBC
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: News article saying there is an amazing amount of black
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: talent out there. If people say they can't find the talent,
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: they either aren't looking hard enough or don't want to
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: find it. I'll take don't want to find it for
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: five hundred Alex. The only people who should be in
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: a bubble right now is the four remaining NBA teams
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: and the staff that makes the NBA move all right,
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: That same bubble, okay, is the same insula bubble most
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: white people living in all their life see. Okay. When
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: I was young, my mother encouraged me. In fact, damn,
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: they had demanded that I read things that didn't pertain
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: to me. Therefore, even on a dirt road in Monsquin
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: to South Carolina, I knew other people's coaches and places existed.
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: When she told me to read things that didn't pertain
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: to me, I immediately started reading Judy Bloom and Beverly Clearly.
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: Ramona Quinbey and her family introduced me to the white
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: middle class. Okay, Margaret from all you there, God is me.
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: Margaret made me realize white people believe in God and
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: actually called on God for help. I didn't know. I
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: was a kid. I thought white people called other white
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: people for help, not God. The moral of the story is,
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: when you're black, you're forceded. You're forced to know what's
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: going on with other races, especially the white race, if
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: not for anything else. Survival. Charles Sharf, chief executive at
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: Wells Fargo. Like most white people in positions of power,
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: will never have to know any black people in order
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: to simply survive. Here's the thing about guys like Charles,
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: and this is a lesson for all the corporate America.
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: If you want your company to be a company and
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: not a plantation, then hire folks who have the eyes
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: and ears to see and hear diverse candidates, and go
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: out of their way to find these diverse candidates. Are

- 1:07:43Speaker 1: This fresh part from Baltimore? What's up? Man? What's your
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: question for? Yeasy? Yeah? I want a see like how
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: can I get my girl to to understand? I want
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: to move into a new spot like we literally together,
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: but I want to get a new spot for man
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: my son. But she feels like we should just they
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: are not her kids, by the way, but she feel
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: like we should stay under one roof and I don't
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: know what I should do it. Wait, you want to
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: move away from her even though y'all live together? It
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: sounds crazy. Females, y'all make things sound crazy. Don't do
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: it like I'm trying to clarify it because it does
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: sounds so listen to listen. I just want to move
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: into a spot that raised my sons under one roof
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: instead of like we can commute. You understand. It's not
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: like I want to move away for I love her
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: to death. My name is Tamika, Um, she's she's my heart.
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: But I just want to spot for me and my son,
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: like I don't I don't think it's wrong, you know
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: what I mean? I'm confused. Why can't they why can't
- 1:08:36Speaker 1: she be with you? There? If you guys are together,
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: all right. So look when you're a young man and
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: you got two kids, they thirteen and eleven, Like, I
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: feel like we gotta do betterfi our children. So me
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: stepping out is something to show leadership in our community.
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: So having multiple people around sometimes because you know, like
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: clarse religion or like me, I'm into vegan food now,
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: So these things could be confusing if you're trying to
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: teach your upbringing, you know what I'm saying. So I
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: feel like one roof, you know, one to hear the household.
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: They can understand. You know where I'm coming from with this,
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: And like I said, I love her. I just want
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: to teach them under one roof instead of you know,
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: the kids come at you. I just all right, as
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: a couple of questions here, So are you going to
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: be the primary caregiver for your kids? Like is it
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: a joint custody situation with the mom? What's going on
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: with joint custody with man the mom? But but like
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: I said, as far as raising them and teaching them
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: different you know, you know, values in life, I feel
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: like the man should be there, you know, mostly and
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: they should see how it should be. Like if they
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: have kids in the future, they should be, you know,
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: dedicated to keeping the kids under one roof and you know,
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: being that that role model they need because there's a
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: lot of fake role models out here. Kids can be
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: looking up to anybody and they don't have no values
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: a moral so I feel like, you know, it's easy
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: for them to be swayed, you know what I mean?
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: A lot of stuff. Married to your girlfriend or together
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: for the long term? Does she know your children? I want,
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: I want, I want Maha, Yeah I do. I love
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: her a death for real. But I still feel like
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: I should be able to do this with my kids.
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: I don't feel like it should be a I don't
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: understand why these things that are mutually exclusive though. Why
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: can't you be with your women who you want to
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: marry and also raise your kids at the same time
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: under in a bigger house with your girls. Jealousy it's
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: like jealousy between women. My sons, they the young black men,
- 1:10:31Speaker 1: so they gonna say stuff and then she comes to
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: me like why do you say that? And you know
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So it's always so you're a child,
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: your children's mother and your girlfriend don't get along. I'm
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: not sure if they don't get along, but I know
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: they don't like each other. They don't talk at all,
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: but I know they don't. You know what your sons
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: need to see. They need to see a functional relationship
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: in a blended family situation. They need to see that
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: if this is a woman you want to be with
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: and you want to marry, they need to see her
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: being able to communicate with their mother, because of course,
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: any mom would not want their kids around a woman
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: who she doesn't know or like, right, and you need
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: to work on that relationship if this is somebody you
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: see yourself with, because I'm not gonna lie if I
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: was in her situation. We live together now, you want
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: to move out because you say you want to be
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: able to when your kids come to see you and
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: stay with you, being a roof for just you under
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: there with them. I would feel like that means you
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: don't see a future with us. Yeah, she said that,
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: and it's almost making me feel like I'm being shopped
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: between the two, like I shouldn't be able to you
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I understand. I'm not being you know, dismissive.
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: I'm very aware of the situation, and you know it's
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: just something we gotta work through. But yeah, and maybe
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: it does feel like something you guys have to work
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: through because you know, I just think you got to
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: work on that relationship between the mom and your girlfriend,
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: and if this is somebody you really want to be with,
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: that should be the first thing that you do, right,
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: so that she's comfortable with her kids being around this
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: woman and so that she feels secure. Are also because
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: I think to set an example for your kids. Look,
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: their relationship didn't work out with their mom, and you're
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: in love with somebody else and this is the other
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: person you want to be with. They need to see
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: those functioning relationships. I think that's a great example. Yeah,
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's just kind of excuison
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: because I still love her too, like we're all great friends,
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: but it's just kind of yeah, it's just kind of
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: confusing for real. But so you kind of want to
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: be with the mom with them No, not how okay,
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: I'm just asking. I just love it. Respect I wouldn't
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: and there's nothing wrong. But she's a beautiful woman. They
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: both beautiful woman. But I want to move on with
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: the one I'm with now. She's more like together, if
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: that makes sense. But part of that moving on is
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: making sure that you guys can all actually get along
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: and know each other and be adult about it and
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: set that example. So I can see where she's coming
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: from it. I think you should look at it from
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: her point of view as well. I don't think you
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: should have to make a choice between the two. Why
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: can't they coexist? I agree, Angela, I agree, I agree,
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: Hey King, I just want to tell you too, man Um.
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: I can hear the Baltimore on your breath, so I

- 1:13:43Speaker 1: middle of ask yee, Hello, who's this? How are you doing? Un?
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: Good morning? Good morning man? What's your question for you?
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: Hey morning? Um? Like it's a relationship question like, um
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: of late, me and my girl, we've been getting into it.
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: Um So I noticed like when it comes to her
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: admitting like when she does like crazy stuff, she has
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: a hard time admitting it, like literally, we're gonna get
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: we're seeking counselors now. But like, what is a good
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: way to just like, you know, break the ice when
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: it comes to yoh, man, you did something, you did
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: something crazy? Ya? I mean I understand you. Just give
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: me an example. All right? So she cut my right.
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: I'm driving her to work, venting to her. She didn't
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: like it, made like literally in front of her job,
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: mid moving, I'm turning the car. She cuts my car
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: off those and in part like opens the door, jumps
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: out of the moping car like justiffy by saying hey,
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: I told you I wanted to get out of your car.
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: Comes like, Yo, that's what's your response. Let's let's have
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: my conversation now. So she says, all right, I told
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: you I'm trying to get out the car. You didn't
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: out the car, so I turned it off and jumped out.
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: I mean, what you expect? What's my response? I'm gonna
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: call the cops, man, because you're not understanding what I
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: don't know. Like I try to tell her, like what
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: she was doing was dangerous. The other driver, you know,
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: we could have crashed. Man, And she's just like, I
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: don't care you telling you gonna call the cops? Yeah,
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: how would you feel that she she was gonna call
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: the cops? You should have. She had to jump out
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: of a car, moving car. That's this. This sounds like
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: a b I mean, I didn't agree with that, but
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: I mean I just thought it was you can't respond
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: too crazy, but with crazy also though, I mean, here's
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: what my thoughts are. Right, when it comes to calling
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: somebody out on something they've done that is wrong, instead
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: of telling them you're wrong, you did this, you did that,
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: you have to talk about how it makes you feel.
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: That's something that I've learned, Like, look, when you did that,
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: it made me feel this way, because that's not accusatory.
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: That opens the door for communications. And then it's also
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: you expressing your thoughts on the situation and how you felt.
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: And then now you can ask her, well, how are
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: you feeling when you did that? This is how it
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: made me feel. Instead of saying you always do this,
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: you never do that, that's accusing you have to say okay,
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: And I think that's the best way to start, is
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: just talking about your own feelings, your own emotions, why
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: you have some concerns, because it feels like things blow
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: up into a bigger situation. She does something, then you
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: do something to be even worse. It's like a tip
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: for tat pretty much. Yeah, well a really big tat.
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: But see it. Look and here you are again. You
- 1:16:37Speaker 1: know you just you gotta take responsibility too, like where
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: are you doing that contributes to her behavior? Not that
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: she's right, but that doesn't mean that you have to
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: be wrong as well, because that is a you do this,
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: So I do this, and then you did this, which
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: was worse than what I did. And she's looking at
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: it like, no, what you did was worse than what
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: I did. If you know what we decided to do.
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: So we're gonna get like a counselor, but we don't
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: know the clase counselor to get. I thought it was
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: like a behavioral health counselor. I don't know. I thought
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: like maybe Charlomagne Kid. I tried to reach him online,
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: but I know he's busy. Maybe type of counseling. Yeah,
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: I go to therapy. But I go to therapy every week. Um,
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: I don't. I've done couples counseling before my wife, but
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: that's not a frequent thing that we do all the time.
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: I do my own personal self work every week via
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: a therapist and a sacred purpose culture. But yeah, I
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: think you guys need couples counseling. And I will say
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: for yourself. What my help in your conversations is if
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: you do own up and take responsibility for what you do.
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: You can say I know that my reaction was wrong,
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: all right, and start there and say, but but the
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: reason I did that was because I felt this way
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: when you did this, and this was my reaction, and
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: my reaction was wrong, and I apologize for that. And
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: it's great when you can start with an apology for
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: your actions, because then that leads her to apologize for
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: what she's done. Okay, but somebody got to be the
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: bigger person and take that first step. I appreciate you got,
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: all right, find him somebody to talk to? Now, Lord
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: please ask ye eight hundred five five one oh five one.

- 1:20:01Speaker 1: made the list, so did Kamala Harris, doctor Fauci, Jay Balvin,
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: Jennifer Hudson, Tyler Perry, Angela Davis, Selena Gomez. Yeah, I
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: saw a Trump on that list. So I wonder what
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: the definition of influences for Time magazine people. It definitely does,
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: but I mean, you know, I guess, I guess. I
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: guess it doesn't matter if it's a positive or negative influence.
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: I guess I don't know, all right. Vanessa Brian is
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: suing the La County Sheriff's Department and Sheriff Alex Villanueva.
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: That's for leaking that photo of the helicopter crash that
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: killed Kobe Bryant and their daughter Gianna and other people
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: as well in January. So it's a civil claim and
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: they are seeking undisclosed damages to remedy civil rights violations,
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: negligent emotional distress, and violation of privacy. That's devastating. It
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: is devastating because even if they win, it's not going
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: to take away any of that trauma. It's not gonna
- 1:20:55Speaker 1: take away any of that emotional distress at all. All right,
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: and shout out to fifty cent his power. But Two
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: Ghosts has been renewed for his second season, So congratulations

- 1:21:19Speaker 1: more than I love the original Power. And I know

- 1:21:50Speaker 1: was wearing the other day. So how long how long
- 1:21:54Speaker 1: before ghost shows up as a ghost? Though? You know,

- 1:23:55Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: line this morning. We have doctor Torrean Easterling. Welcome, Brobo.
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: Thank you, thanks for having me. Good morning. First and foremost,
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: thank you for everything that you've been doing right now
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: during this pandemic. I know it's a rough time for
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: a lot of people. Absolutely. I mean we're coming out
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: of a sobering weekend. I mean we just hit the
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: mark over two hundred thousand deaths here in the United States,
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: and I think it's a it's a reminder of the
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: moment that we're in, and I think this is why
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: I'm here, and thank you so much for allowing me
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: to join the show this morning to talk about the
- 1:24:31Speaker 1: importance of the flu vaccine this year. We know that
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: this is going to be a really important year. All
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: of the public health officials and experts are really showing
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: how because of the emergency and the pandemic that we're in,
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: we really have to sennounce the message that it's going
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: to be really important to get your flu vaccine this
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: year more than any of the year that we've we've
- 1:24:52Speaker 1: been through. I've been talking to a couple of dogs
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: and they said that, you know, if you take the
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: flu vaccine, you know it helped with the covid virus.
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: Because you know what you have and what you don't have,
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: you can tell the difference between just a regular cold
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: or the flu or what's going over covid. So they're
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: saying that definitely, kids and older people should definitely take
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: this vaccine this year. Yeah, so absolutely, anyone over six
- 1:25:14Speaker 1: months of age should take the flu vaccine. It's going
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: to be specifically important for young kids, It's going to
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: be specifically important for our elderess and so individuals over
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: sixty five, but really it's going to be important for anyone.
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: But DJMV you just hit a really important point. The
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: symptoms are going to be similar for both covid as
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: well as flu, and so it's going to be really
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: hard to distinguish between both. I mean, you can experience fever,
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: you running, know, its shortness of breath with both covid
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: and flu vaccine, So it will be difficult to really
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: discern between the two. So that's why we really want
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: folks to just understand the prevention is really getting ammunization.
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: What about the fact that you know a lot of
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: these people that die from COVID nineteen, they have a
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: lot of underlying conditions. Yeah. Absolutely, so have chronic conditions
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: such as diabetes and hypertension. Or if you're immunal suppressed,
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: certainly you are at a higher risk of COVID nineteen
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: related symptoms. But certainly that's the same case for for influenza,
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: that you're at higher risk if you have chronic disease. So, uh,
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: you know, I would add that category along with children
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: and as well as older adults if they really need
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: to make sure that you're getting a flu vaccine this year.
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: What are your predictions of coming now? Because people keep
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: saying that there's going to be a huge surge with
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: coronavirus and that is because of the flu, because of
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: the weather changing, because of schools opening again. So what
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: do you predict is about to happen. We're certainly looking
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: at the science, We're looking at the data. You know,
- 1:26:45Speaker 1: as you three of you know, New York City was
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: the epicenter when this all kicked off in early twenty twenty,
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: so we continue to pay attention to the data. You know,
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: the folks who are saying that we're being too fast.
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: I mean we've really been looking at this and being
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: intentional throughout you know, looking at restaurants, you know, looking
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: at businesses across school reopening as well, and even as
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: we think about you know, sort of larger workforce and
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: other business steps. So that's why, you know, taking the
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: preventive steps, continuing to wear face masks, wash your hands
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: are the messages. They're really clear and short of anything else,
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: of having a flu vaccine on the market, we have
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: to continue to take those precautions, but certainly having the
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: flu vaccine available early this year, people getting emmy unized
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: early this year, which is why I want to thank
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: you again for having me on earlier this year where
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: we were really sort of sharing the same message. But
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: we need to get the message out early. They're talking
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: about a vaccine for COVID that's supposed to be available
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: in November. Would you recommend taking the vaccine? So I
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: think we're going to have to pay pay attention absolutely
- 1:27:54Speaker 1: to the data around the COVID vaccine. So we're certainly
- 1:27:57Speaker 1: right now in phase zero right when you think about
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: development of a vaccine trial, because a lot of the
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: information that's coming out, people are to really trying to
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: discern what's true, what's real. What I would say is
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: we need to have, you know, some serious conversations around
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: the history of vaccination, immunization, and Black and Round communities.
- 1:28:15Speaker 1: You know. Addressing equity issues is paramount to making sure
- 1:28:19Speaker 1: that people understand how important it is to take a
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: COVID vaccine, but also safety, and so we want to
- 1:28:25Speaker 1: make sure that it's both safe, but it's also equitable,
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: and so thinking about who is most at risk, you know,
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: I talked about some of the important you know, groups
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: that we have to think about, healthcare workers, people with
- 1:28:37Speaker 1: chronic disease, elderly, you know, even Black and Round communities
- 1:28:40Speaker 1: as they have bear the brunt of you know, the
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: COVID pandemic. So you know, equitable allocation is going to
- 1:28:46Speaker 1: have to be a part of the process of how
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: we distribute a COVID vaccine. So certainly all of those
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: three factors are going to be important. Safety, equity, but
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: also thinking about an equitable allocation. Due to everybody wearing
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: a mask, they said they don't expect the flu season
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: to be as as strong as it usually is. That
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: I guess they got, you know, pre things from some
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: other places that they said it shouldn't be as bad
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: because everybody has those masks on. And do you think
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: that's a new way of life for the next ten years?
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: People are gonna have to wear masks, you know, certainly
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: right now, you know that's the way forward. And you know,
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: you hit a really good point. You know that having
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: some of the infectious disease control measures in place, like
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: face covering, such as physical distancing is also going to
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: support the flu virus this year as well and sort
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: of transmitting it. So I think that we could certainly
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: see that it's not as bad as it has been
- 1:29:36Speaker 1: in previous years. But I think what we're trying to
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: say is that it's also those you know, precautions, but
- 1:29:42Speaker 1: also taking the flu vaccine is going to really help
- 1:29:44Speaker 1: ensure that we don't see, uh, you know, a high
- 1:29:47Speaker 1: number of deaths this year. Well, thank you for having me,
- 1:29:51Speaker 1: and I just want to also say, uh, you know again,
- 1:29:54Speaker 1: I think that this is going to be really important,
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: not just for right now, but also so that we
- 1:29:58Speaker 1: can have a safe ling season as well, because I
- 1:30:01Speaker 1: know that's just as important as making sure that we
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: address code was vaccine, and I know that you all
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: have been raising the importance of voting and supporting our
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: electoral process as well. So thank you, Thank you doctor
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: doctor Torrian easter Lane. Make sure you go out there
- 1:30:15Speaker 1: and get your flu shot, and we appreciate you checking
