- 4:04Speaker 1: Peppers will be joining us this morning, Yahia Peppers man.
- 4:08Speaker 1: And also we have somebody else joining us. Right, my
- 4:10Speaker 1: good brother Res Momenticum, the author of my Grandmother's Hands.
- 4:13Speaker 1: He's got a new book coming out called The Quaking
- 4:16Speaker 1: of America. All right, yes, so let's get the show
- 4:18Speaker 1: cracking front page news. What we're talking about. Well, you
- 4:20Speaker 1: may have noticed that there's not a lot of kmarts
- 4:23Speaker 1: around anymore, and once these last few kmarts closed down,
- 4:28Speaker 1: there will only be three left in the United States.
- 4:30Speaker 1: Walmart and Target just took Kmar out. I forgot all
- 4:33Speaker 1: about Kamara. Don't disrespect Kmart, though, I forgot all about Kmar.
- 4:37Speaker 1: That's the original mark. You know how many there used
- 4:39Speaker 1: to be? How many? Two thousand three? What did they
- 4:43Speaker 1: do wrong? All right? All right, we'll get into that next.
- 4:46Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Go Morning, I'm talking morning. Everybody's
- 4:53Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela yea, God, we are the Breakfast Club.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Let's get some front page news. NBA tonight starts to
- 5:01Speaker 1: play in tournament. I know on the East coast and
- 5:04Speaker 1: the Brooklyness take on the Cavaliers. On the West coast.
- 5:07Speaker 1: I think the Clippers take on the Spurs the Wolves there.
- 5:12Speaker 1: All right, what else we got easy? All right? Well,
- 5:14Speaker 1: kmart is naring extinction. After one of them is closing
- 5:17Speaker 1: in New Jersey. They'll be down to only three Kmart's
- 5:20Speaker 1: in the continental United States. And so what they're saying is,
- 5:24Speaker 1: you know, it was a lot of competition in a
- 5:26Speaker 1: world dominated by Walmart, Target and Amazon and kmarts. Decline
- 5:31Speaker 1: has been slow but steady. It's different shopping habits. Also,
- 5:36Speaker 1: Target has better and trendier offerings. Walmart has a lower prices.
- 5:41Speaker 1: Kmart file for chapter eleven bankruptcy back in early two
- 5:43Speaker 1: thousand and two. Then they try to combine series in
- 5:46Speaker 1: kmart and return them to their former greatness. But with
- 5:49Speaker 1: the recession and the rising dominance of Amazon, that's continued
- 5:53Speaker 1: to get derilled. And they're saying that, you know, the
- 5:56Speaker 1: CEO did not have a retail background. He was more
- 6:00Speaker 1: interested in stripping off the assets of the two chains
- 6:02Speaker 1: for their cash value. They said Serious should have never
- 6:04Speaker 1: gone away. Kamart was in the worst shape, but not
- 6:07Speaker 1: fatally so. And now they are both gone. S is
- 6:09Speaker 1: going too. I had no idea. It's only the scrawn survive.
- 6:13Speaker 1: That's why nobody should get comfortable because I'm old enough
- 6:15Speaker 1: to remember when Kamarth mattered. I'm old enough to remember
- 6:18Speaker 1: when kmart was the only thing sports authority. I do
- 6:21Speaker 1: remember Sports Athority, Dick Sporting Goods probably, but I mean, honestly,
- 6:27Speaker 1: Amazon took over all of those places. Yeah, but you
- 6:29Speaker 1: want to try things on. You want to go to
- 6:30Speaker 1: DICKX and try it on. You want to you want
- 6:32Speaker 1: to play with the balls. You want to kick you
- 6:33Speaker 1: know what I mean? You want to you want to
- 6:35Speaker 1: go through that like who wants to get ordered that stuff.
- 6:38Speaker 1: When I walked in and saw you in that salmon
- 6:39Speaker 1: this morning, when I saw you in that pink, I
- 6:41Speaker 1: knew it was gonna be on the day. You know
- 6:42Speaker 1: we're going to try and I knew who. I knew
- 6:45Speaker 1: it was gonna be on with him today He got
- 6:47Speaker 1: his bid black today, got that paint on. They got
- 6:50Speaker 1: that pink and paint when ever you got that pink
- 6:51Speaker 1: and paint on. It is going to be a party,
- 6:55Speaker 1: you hear me? All right? Well, Philadelphia has restored their
- 7:00Speaker 1: indoor mask mandate as cases have been rising. It's the
- 7:02Speaker 1: first major US city to reinstate that indoor mask mandate.
- 7:06Speaker 1: There's been a sharp increase in COVID infections. They're saying
- 7:09Speaker 1: that confirmed cases have risen more than fifty percent in
- 7:11Speaker 1: ten days, and that is a threshold at which the
- 7:14Speaker 1: city's guidelines call for people to wear masks indoors. So
- 7:16Speaker 1: starting April eighteenth, health inspectors will begin to enforce that
- 7:20Speaker 1: mask mandated city businesses. So coming back, well in Philadelphia
- 7:24Speaker 1: is the first place because cases rose fifty percent. Okay,
- 7:28Speaker 1: people dying though, if it's catching COVID, we know, I
- 7:31Speaker 1: mean anytime there's more cases that people catch, because the
- 7:35Speaker 1: tentages will go up. I thought the new stream it
- 7:37Speaker 1: was saying it was a lot light of people were
- 7:39Speaker 1: getting hospitalized. They were just you can't put the tooth
- 7:41Speaker 1: paste back into YouTube. Okay, even told everybody to take
- 7:44Speaker 1: their mask off. Mask mandates over and now you think
- 7:47Speaker 1: you think you can get people to put masks back on, please,
- 7:49Speaker 1: you're about to catch hell. It's like fought in reverse. Okay,
- 7:55Speaker 1: well that is your front page news. It's impossible, right
- 8:00Speaker 1: far reverse. That's right. You can't. Once you fart is gone,
- 8:03Speaker 1: ain't no grabbing that fart and putting it back in
- 8:05Speaker 1: your ass. That's what I'm trying to tell them from

- 18:18Speaker 1: So I got a pregnancy test and well, I'm having
- 18:20Speaker 1: a baby. Four days later, I got a little more
- 18:22Speaker 1: food pregnant. It's growing. If two are in there, I
- 18:24Speaker 1: might just lose it. I obviously won't be going out
- 18:26Speaker 1: as much due to the paps getting their money shot
- 18:29Speaker 1: at me like they unfortunately already have. It's hard because
- 18:32Speaker 1: when I was pregnant, I had perinatal depression. I have
- 18:35Speaker 1: to say, it is absolutely horrible. Women didn't talk about
- 18:38Speaker 1: it back then. Some people considered it dangerous if a
- 18:40Speaker 1: woman complained like that with a baby inside her. But
- 18:43Speaker 1: now women talk about it every day. Think Jesus, we
- 18:45Speaker 1: don't have to keep that pain and reserved proper secret.

- 19:05Speaker 1: love and hip hop movie is allegedly in the works.
- 19:08Speaker 1: This is an exclusive according to Jasmine Brand. Sources say
- 19:12Speaker 1: that the fictional project is in the early stages and
- 19:14Speaker 1: a script is currently being created. They're also saying some
- 19:18Speaker 1: of the creators of the reality franchise are involved with
- 19:20Speaker 1: production of this upcoming film. I saw that headline yesterday.
- 19:24Speaker 1: I wonder what that creative is, Like, Well, it's fictional,
- 19:29Speaker 1: but then I guess a lot of love and hip
- 19:30Speaker 1: hop kind of is also, so maybe it's some ye
- 19:38Speaker 1: how would they started? How would? Yeah? I'm curious as well,
- 19:41Speaker 1: all right now? Saturday Night Live comedian Molly Shannon has
- 19:44Speaker 1: a book out today. Her memoir is called Hello Molly,
- 19:47Speaker 1: and she talks about a lot of different things in there.
- 19:50Speaker 1: She talked about visiting la in nineteen eighty seven. She
- 19:52Speaker 1: had just gotten signed by Gary Coleman's agent, Mark Randall,
- 19:56Speaker 1: and she said he was hugely popular back then. He
- 19:59Speaker 1: had just up to sitcom. She said she was over
- 20:01Speaker 1: the moon, and she went out to dinner with her
- 20:04Speaker 1: agent and with Gary Coleman. She said that Coleman was
- 20:07Speaker 1: eighteen at the time, but very small because he had
- 20:09Speaker 1: that kidney disease that limited his growth to four foot eight,
- 20:12Speaker 1: but he was extremely flirtatious. She said. We had a
- 20:15Speaker 1: great time laughing and joking, and then Gary Coleman asked
- 20:18Speaker 1: her if she wanted to see the presidential suite where
- 20:20Speaker 1: he was staying. She said. Once in the room, he
- 20:22Speaker 1: asked Shannon to sit on the bed. She said, the
- 20:24Speaker 1: possibility of something sexual occurring hadn't even crossed my mind.
- 20:28Speaker 1: Now I was an innocent virgin. Still, he was playful
- 20:30Speaker 1: at first, tickling me, trying to lie on top of me,
- 20:33Speaker 1: and smooched me. Then when I pushed him away and
- 20:35Speaker 1: stood up, Gary climbed up on the bed and jumped off,
- 20:37Speaker 1: using it as a springboard to launch himself to me,
- 20:40Speaker 1: kissing me wildly and sticking his little baby hands under
- 20:42Speaker 1: my shirt. No, yeah, she said that. She pushed him away,
- 20:49Speaker 1: and she said that she was able to flip him
- 20:52Speaker 1: off the bed, but he repeatedly tried to kiss her. Finally,
- 20:54Speaker 1: she got up and he draped his whole body around
- 20:57Speaker 1: her calf, so she ended up dragging him across the floor,
- 21:01Speaker 1: and she ran across the room and locked herself in
- 21:03Speaker 1: the bathroom, while undeterred, he wiggled his fingers underneath the door.
- 21:06Speaker 1: She said his relentlessness was unlike anything I've ever experienced.
- 21:10Speaker 1: She finally was able to escape the room and told
- 21:13Speaker 1: her agent that his client is wild and never heard
- 21:15Speaker 1: from the agent again. She's trying to buy a calf muscle.
- 21:19Speaker 1: He was again because four couldn't Oh got you right?
- 21:25Speaker 1: So she has a lot of interesting stories. It sounds
- 21:27Speaker 1: like a great memoir. She's now fifty seven years old,
- 21:30Speaker 1: and she talked about when she was four years old,
- 21:31Speaker 1: her mother, younger sister, and cousin all died in a
- 21:33Speaker 1: car accident while her father was driving after drinking too
- 21:37Speaker 1: much at a family celebration. She and another sister survived,
- 21:40Speaker 1: and for a long time I was gonna ask for
- 21:47Speaker 1: a while. Yeah, all right, Well that is your rumor report.
- 21:52Speaker 1: All right? Gee from page was Next are we talking about? Well,
- 21:56Speaker 1: let's talk about the University of Southern California. They have
- 21:59Speaker 1: sued some YouTubers over some of their pranks. All right,
- 22:02Speaker 1: we'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club com morning.
- 22:04Speaker 1: So Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same. Hey,
- 22:09Speaker 1: it's Angela. Yee. Have you taken a look at the
- 22:11Speaker 1: General insurance lately? Switch to the General and you could say,
- 22:14Speaker 1: over five hundred dollars on your car insurance, call eight
- 22:17Speaker 1: hundred General or visit the General dot com the General
- 22:19Speaker 1: Auto Insurance Services, Inc. An insurance agency Nashville, Tennessee. Some
- 22:23Speaker 1: restrictions apply. Hey, everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
- 22:27Speaker 1: the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. All right, let's
- 22:30Speaker 1: get to some front page news. But we're started well.
- 22:34Speaker 1: Two YouTubers have been sued by the University of Southern California,
- 22:38Speaker 1: and that is for busting into classrooms and stopping the
- 22:41Speaker 1: instructors so they could film viral videos. And now they're
- 22:45Speaker 1: saying that Ernest Kanevski and you Goo By, neither of
- 22:48Speaker 1: whom are enrolled at the school, performed a series of
- 22:51Speaker 1: pranks in different classrooms and the goal was making takeover
- 22:54Speaker 1: prank videos. There are. Most recent disruption went down a
- 22:58Speaker 1: few weeks ago. Ernest and Ugo pretend to be a
- 23:00Speaker 1: Russian mafia member and Hugo Boss. They interrupted a lecture
- 23:04Speaker 1: on the Holocaust. Hugo Boss manufactured Nazi uniforms during World
- 23:08Speaker 1: War Two. They said the students were panicked. Some of
- 23:11Speaker 1: them fled the room, leaving their belongings behind, and according
- 23:14Speaker 1: to the lawsuit, the YouTubers presented a credible threat of
- 23:18Speaker 1: imminent classroom violence. Here's what happened. Oh you could go home.
- 23:25Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm just trying to learn. No colt the
- 23:34Speaker 1: superior If you don't want to, why was everybody leaving
- 23:38Speaker 1: from just trying to learn? See securities? Should have shot him,
- 23:44Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. People like that. I wanted
- 23:46Speaker 1: to they when they do these pranks, did they read
- 23:47Speaker 1: the room or they just be going for the funny,
- 23:49Speaker 1: Because common sense would say, if I'm going to come
- 23:50Speaker 1: into a room dressed as a Russian mafia member interruption,
- 23:53Speaker 1: interrupting lectures on the Holocaust, I would think it was
- 23:55Speaker 1: an imminent threat of classroom violence too. If I was
- 23:58Speaker 1: in that class office as the rest of them point
- 24:00Speaker 1: in a parking lot near the classroom, and no word
- 24:03Speaker 1: on what these criminal charges will be, if they're going
- 24:06Speaker 1: to press them at all. Should have shot him. You
- 24:09Speaker 1: gotta kill him, Give a little legs shot of something,
- 24:11Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because at some point in time,
- 24:12Speaker 1: you have to read the room when it comes to
- 24:14Speaker 1: these pranks. Why would you do something like that? Ever,
- 24:16Speaker 1: but especially at a time all right now. Former a
- 24:20Speaker 1: Virginia police officer who stormed the US capital was found
- 24:22Speaker 1: guilty on all charges yesterday. That man, Thomas Robertson, is
- 24:27Speaker 1: a former sergeant of the Rocky Mount Police in Virginia.
- 24:29Speaker 1: He faced charges including impeding law enforcement officers, obstructing an
- 24:33Speaker 1: official proceeding, entering and remaining in restricted grounds, and tampering
- 24:37Speaker 1: with evidence. The jury did hear from multiple witnesses during
- 24:40Speaker 1: the trial last week, and one juror told teen and
- 24:44Speaker 1: that there was debate on every charge while the jury
- 24:46Speaker 1: deliberated for around thirteen hours. And so during the trial
- 24:50Speaker 1: they testify that a man carrying a stick, who prosecutors
- 24:53Speaker 1: say was Robertson, hit him and another officer as they
- 24:56Speaker 1: tried to pass through the mob of rioters during the attack.
- 24:58Speaker 1: Prosecutors did place clips of the incident. They also played
- 25:02Speaker 1: some footage from police body cameras that were worn that day.
- 25:05Speaker 1: So he has been found guilty on all of those charges.
- 25:10Speaker 1: So closing arguments, his attorneys argued that he had no
- 25:13Speaker 1: plans to go down and say I'm going to stop
- 25:15Speaker 1: Congress from doing this vote and continue to suggest that
- 25:18Speaker 1: the stick that Robertson had with him was simply a
- 25:20Speaker 1: walking stick, but that did not stick. All right, Well
- 25:25Speaker 1: that is your front page news, all right, thank you,
- 25:27Speaker 1: miss Yee. Now when we come back, we have an
- 25:30Speaker 1: author joining us. He has a new book, qua of America.

- 25:35Speaker 1: Resume Mini. Him is the author of My Grandmother's Hands,
- 25:38Speaker 1: which is a ridiculous New York Times bestseller. That book

- 25:58Speaker 1: Good Morning, Breakfast Club, The Power one oh five one,
- 26:06Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club and Angela Year and Charlemagne the Guard
- 26:11Speaker 1: wanting everybody's dj envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the Guy. We
- 26:15Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in
- 26:17Speaker 1: the building. He's an author. He has a new book,
- 26:19Speaker 1: Quaking of America. He's also going to be at Angela
- 26:22Speaker 1: Ye's coffee shop doing an in store all right, Resumeminican,
- 26:26Speaker 1: good to see black. Now you doing it? King, I'm
- 26:28Speaker 1: doing good, brother, I'm doing good. Man. New book out,
- 26:31Speaker 1: The Quaking of America, an embodied guide to navigating our
- 26:34Speaker 1: nation's upheaval in racial reckoning Man the Beast. Okay, what's
- 26:38Speaker 1: the title about. Whenever you write a book, the publisher
- 26:41Speaker 1: always wants you to write the same book again, you know.
- 26:44Speaker 1: So I had originally started writing um a book called
- 26:48Speaker 1: Our Grandchildren's Souls, and it was basically about legacy and
- 26:51Speaker 1: how do we create a living, embodied, anti racist legacy
- 26:55Speaker 1: culture as opposed to just like being nice to each other.
- 26:58Speaker 1: And then January sixth, half as soon as that happened,
- 27:02Speaker 1: I was like, I can't keep writing this book. I gotta,
- 27:04Speaker 1: I gotta, because I think America sometimes we have seminal moments,
- 27:09Speaker 1: and then what we do a lot of times is
- 27:11Speaker 1: we forget those seminal moments. And I wanted to. I
- 27:14Speaker 1: wanted to enshrine it in the book. And so it
- 27:17Speaker 1: really is about what it is that we saw on
- 27:19Speaker 1: January sixth, and how that actually is a testimony and
- 27:23Speaker 1: a testament to our history, to the intergenerational trauma, to
- 27:27Speaker 1: the persistent institutional trauma, and then our own personal pieces.
- 27:30Speaker 1: And so the quaking of America is really about how
- 27:34Speaker 1: that shows up and what we begin to do about it.
- 27:36Speaker 1: I mean, really, right now, when you look at what
- 27:39Speaker 1: happened January six people are not even really talking about no,
- 27:42Speaker 1: not at all, and an attempted cool it is country
- 27:44Speaker 1: haempted cool. And then what's going to happen in the
- 27:46Speaker 1: future right after that, because you have some predictions as well, Right,
- 27:50Speaker 1: that's not normal in a democracy. No, no, well it
- 27:54Speaker 1: shouldn't be normal. It should be normal in any country.
- 27:57Speaker 1: But in this country we get we get so enamored
- 27:59Speaker 1: with forgetting things right, and what ends up happening, I
- 28:03Speaker 1: think sometimes is that we don't learn the lessons that
- 28:05Speaker 1: we need to learn. When January sixth happened, I wasn't
- 28:09Speaker 1: even watching what was you know, what was going on?
- 28:11Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, Maria, my wife, goes
- 28:14Speaker 1: Rasma and she screams right, and she's upstairs in the bedroom.
- 28:17Speaker 1: I come upstairs and you see like two thousand people
- 28:21Speaker 1: showing up to this thing. And so I just sat
- 28:23Speaker 1: down and we started watching it, and then all of
- 28:25Speaker 1: a sudden, you start seeing the symbols of our past.
- 28:28Speaker 1: You start seeing the new show up right, remember, Then
- 28:31Speaker 1: you start seeing the swastika showing right. Then you start
- 28:34Speaker 1: seeing the AR fifteen showroom. Then you start seeing people
- 28:38Speaker 1: kick the windows out. And I'm thinking, as I'm watching this,
- 28:41Speaker 1: I'm like, ain't nobody dead yet? They haven't shot anybody yet.
- 28:44Speaker 1: If that had been if that had been six thousand
- 28:47Speaker 1: black folks, or six thousand Indigenous people or six thousand
- 28:50Speaker 1: Mexican people, there would have been enough body bags, right,
- 28:53Speaker 1: and then and then when they finally started kicking in
- 28:57Speaker 1: the doors and nobody stopped, I was like, this is
- 29:01Speaker 1: a seminal moment. My whole thing in the book was like, look,
- 29:04Speaker 1: if we don't I if white people, and particularly white people,
- 29:08Speaker 1: if you saw that and that didn't spur you to
- 29:12Speaker 1: take a self defense course, that didn't spur you to
- 29:15Speaker 1: learn weapons training, that didn't spur you to take a
- 29:18Speaker 1: psychological first aid course. If that didn't spur you to
- 29:21Speaker 1: do that, then you're not seeing you're not taking what
- 29:24Speaker 1: you just saw seriously in my grandmother's hands in January
- 29:27Speaker 1: sixth reminded me that you spoke to how you know,
- 29:29Speaker 1: before they did that to enslaved Africans, before they did
- 29:33Speaker 1: that the indigenous people, they did it to themselves. They
- 29:35Speaker 1: did it to themselves. And that's the whole piece. The
- 29:37Speaker 1: whole piece for me is that white, white bodies got
- 29:41Speaker 1: conditioned around whiteness in the way that allowed them to
- 29:45Speaker 1: not see not only our humanity, but their own humanity.
- 29:49Speaker 1: Most white, most white bodies that are listening to this
- 29:52Speaker 1: call right now, are descended from white bodies that were
- 29:55Speaker 1: fleeing something. So what we call American immigrants. Like most
- 30:01Speaker 1: of the time when we think about it, we think
- 30:03Speaker 1: about those black and white pictures of white people coming
- 30:06Speaker 1: off the boats, right and all that different types of stuff.
- 30:08Speaker 1: But if you go a couple one hundred years before that,
- 30:11Speaker 1: most of them were fleeing famine, most of them were
- 30:14Speaker 1: fleeing religious persecution, most of them were fleeing the Middle Ages.
- 30:17Speaker 1: They were fleeing other white bodies who were brutalizing them.
- 30:21Speaker 1: And then they landed here. And then what ended up
- 30:24Speaker 1: happening is that most of those bodies got sold. Right
- 30:28Speaker 1: after the Bacon Rebellion got sold. The idea of whiteness
- 30:32Speaker 1: by elite white bodies. So elite white bodies sold poor
- 30:34Speaker 1: white bodies the idea of whiteness as a way to
- 30:37Speaker 1: get around the brutality. And but that fleeing never got
- 30:42Speaker 1: dealt with, and the conduit for dealing with it was
- 30:45Speaker 1: really the black and indigenous body. So all of that trauma,
- 30:50Speaker 1: all of that hurt, all of that pain, blew it
- 30:52Speaker 1: through their bodies, right, And so that's the whole setup.
- 30:55Speaker 1: This whole setup is around. And this is why I
- 30:58Speaker 1: talk about the difference between identity and body. Right, So black, brown,
- 31:04Speaker 1: and indigenous people all have identities, right. We might be transgender,
- 31:10Speaker 1: we might be gay, we might be straight, we might
- 31:11Speaker 1: be whatever. We have all of these different identities, and
- 31:15Speaker 1: we are also bodies of cultural or black bodies. And
- 31:18Speaker 1: what ends up happening is is that people canflate identity
- 31:22Speaker 1: with pigmentocracy. We live in the pigmentocracy. There was a
- 31:25Speaker 1: structure that was set up based on looking out in
- 31:28Speaker 1: the fields and seeing seeing that you are less human,
- 31:32Speaker 1: you are a species than the white bodies standing next
- 31:35Speaker 1: to you. And so those pieces have never gotten dealt
- 31:38Speaker 1: with in America, and in the quaking of America, I'm
- 31:41Speaker 1: trying to begin to do that, trying to begin to
- 31:44Speaker 1: work with that. You know, I noticed that too, when
- 31:46Speaker 1: we see people fleeing from Ukraine, and because they're white,
- 31:51Speaker 1: we have a different amount of sympathy. But then people
- 31:53Speaker 1: are fleeing from oppression and all kinds of violence in
- 31:58Speaker 1: their countries, but if they come from black and brown places,
- 32:02Speaker 1: it's like there's no sympathy for that, right, Sis, do
- 32:05Speaker 1: you remember this was this was not even a year ago.
- 32:08Speaker 1: We saw white man on horsebacks beating Haitians crossing the river.
- 32:13Speaker 1: If that is not a direct that picture, those pictures
- 32:16Speaker 1: were direct ties to our historical paths. Right. The pigmentocracy
- 32:21Speaker 1: is global. Right, when you watch people fleeing a war
- 32:25Speaker 1: zone or war zone in the Ukraine, you have soldiers
- 32:29Speaker 1: saying you can come on the boat, you get off
- 32:32Speaker 1: the bus, you do that. That's based on the pigmentocracy.
- 32:36Speaker 1: That's not based on whether or not those people are citizens.
- 32:39Speaker 1: That's not based on whether those people are workers within
- 32:41Speaker 1: that country. That's based on a pigmentocracy. You are less
- 32:45Speaker 1: human and you are more human, and so therefore you
- 32:48Speaker 1: can get on the plains in the bus. And even
- 32:50Speaker 1: though we're in the war zone and we're all trying
- 32:51Speaker 1: to escape, right, That's what I mean. That's so in Quaking,
- 32:55Speaker 1: I'm really trying to land that piece and have people
- 32:58Speaker 1: understand that this idea of of black skin being less
- 33:03Speaker 1: of a less human is the race question in this
- 33:07Speaker 1: country is a species question. First, Is Charlemagne a human
- 33:13Speaker 1: or not? And the answer for America is no, he
- 33:16Speaker 1: is not. It's sister a human or not. And the
- 33:19Speaker 1: answer structurally and philosophically has always been known. It was
- 33:23Speaker 1: in the Constitution, it was in the I mean it's
- 33:26Speaker 1: three fifths. People always talk about three fifths three fifths
- 33:29Speaker 1: being just a voting clause. No, the three fifth clause
- 33:32Speaker 1: came out of debate, which means that you had people
- 33:35Speaker 1: in the room debating how much those other bodies were
- 33:39Speaker 1: actually worth. That idea transcends through time, and that's what
- 33:48Speaker 1: we're dealing with. When you see all of these you know,
- 33:50Speaker 1: when you when you see the brutality that our people
- 33:53Speaker 1: have experienced, you see it in in in in both
- 33:56Speaker 1: big demonstrative things. You see it in mundane things like
- 33:59Speaker 1: when you watch what happened between Brother Will and Chris Rock.
- 34:05Speaker 1: You watched history walk up the steps, his own personal history,
- 34:09Speaker 1: the historical, the intergenerational, and the institution. You could see
- 34:14Speaker 1: the pain walking up the steps. You could see the
- 34:17Speaker 1: heartbreak and Brother Chris's face from that, you could see
- 34:22Speaker 1: the heartbreak. And people talk about Chris, they talk about
- 34:27Speaker 1: brother Will and they talk about Jada, But what they
- 34:29Speaker 1: don't talk about is a person that was off to
- 34:32Speaker 1: the side, that actually represented the community. And that was
- 34:35Speaker 1: just the Lupeto nion. When you watch her face when
- 34:40Speaker 1: that happens, you see heartbreak, you see fear, you see
- 34:44Speaker 1: all of those differently. Just slow the tape down. You
- 34:47Speaker 1: see a rupture, and that rupture, that rupture has historical underpinnings.
- 34:53Speaker 1: All right, we have more with Resumeminican when we come back,
- 34:56Speaker 1: don't move. It's the breakfast Club. Good morning, Yeah, angela
- 35:02Speaker 1: Ye Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club was
- 35:05Speaker 1: still kicking it with author Resume Mendicant and don't forget
- 35:07Speaker 1: he's going to be at angela Ye's coffee shop today
- 35:10Speaker 1: signing books. Ye. Another thing that's current that's been happening
- 35:14Speaker 1: with Supreme Court Justice Katanzi Brown Jackson, and we saw
- 35:18Speaker 1: her being questioned and the things that they were saying
- 35:21Speaker 1: about her and to her, and the messaging that the
- 35:23Speaker 1: Republicans were putting out who were voting against her. And
- 35:26Speaker 1: so that's something too, because I know a lot of
- 35:28Speaker 1: what you discussed is also political in context too when
- 35:32Speaker 1: we talk about Republican and their messaging and how Democrats
- 35:35Speaker 1: operate as far as trying to be more concerned about policy, Yeah,
- 35:39Speaker 1: yeah than anything else. First off, she wasn't being questioned.
- 35:43Speaker 1: She was being what I call, and there's been a
- 35:46Speaker 1: lot of writing on this, is what's called spirit murder. Right,
- 35:51Speaker 1: she would the questioning and the things that they were
- 35:54Speaker 1: doing were about attacking and undermining her humanity. First notice
- 35:58Speaker 1: the questioning. The questioning was not what have you done?
- 36:01Speaker 1: Was the laws? What are the things that? Right? The
- 36:03Speaker 1: question is was around are you human enough? Yeah? Right?
- 36:07Speaker 1: And that's always the subtexts, yeah right, that's right. Question.
- 36:13Speaker 1: No morals question her actual humanity? Do you just you
- 36:17Speaker 1: don't really deserve to be here? That spirit murder is
- 36:20Speaker 1: a facet of America. Right, in order to enslave a people, right,
- 36:26Speaker 1: black people were never slaves. We were enslaved, which means
- 36:30Speaker 1: something happened. In order to do that, you have to
- 36:33Speaker 1: spirit murder people. You have to undermine, you have to
- 36:36Speaker 1: cut them, you have to make them believe that that
- 36:40Speaker 1: the brother or the sister next to them is their
- 36:43Speaker 1: mortal enemy. And what we have to begin to do
- 36:46Speaker 1: is we have to begin to change our language. We
- 36:48Speaker 1: have to begin to change our language and make sure
- 36:50Speaker 1: that it's an embodied language. Like when you were watching
- 36:53Speaker 1: what they were doing to syst I would imagine just
- 36:55Speaker 1: knowing you says that you were watching it going probably
- 36:58Speaker 1: using not so good words, right, but but something about
- 37:01Speaker 1: what they were doing, even though it looked like questioning,
- 37:04Speaker 1: something about it seemed brutal. Yeah, right, that's the spirit murder.
- 37:08Speaker 1: I appreciate what Cory Booker said, but in that moment,
- 37:12Speaker 1: you gotta check the white boys come on before you
- 37:14Speaker 1: pour in there. Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying. Yeah,
- 37:17Speaker 1: if it didn't feel right, it felt like you was
- 37:19Speaker 1: like like you felt like you watched sis to get
- 37:21Speaker 1: slapped in the face and you're, you know, you're, you're,
- 37:24Speaker 1: you're pouring into her saying it was so good. You
- 37:25Speaker 1: didn't do anything, you didn't fight back. But the person
- 37:28Speaker 1: that slapped him is right there. That's you know, that's
- 37:31Speaker 1: the piece that I think in terms of quaking. Like
- 37:33Speaker 1: a friend of mine, Uh, that red quaking, she said,
- 37:37Speaker 1: res my grandmother's hands was like a warm blanket. Uh.
- 37:41Speaker 1: Quaking is like a dark alley, right, because I'm moving
- 37:46Speaker 1: into some places that people don't really want to want
- 37:49Speaker 1: to go, and you just hit on it. Right. I
- 37:51Speaker 1: love the fact that he poured into her. I love
- 37:54Speaker 1: the fact that somebody said, I see you, sis, I
- 37:58Speaker 1: see you, I love you, um, and I know what
- 38:00Speaker 1: they're doing. Right. That's beautiful, right, And at the same time,
- 38:05Speaker 1: the piece that you're saying also needs to needs to
- 38:07Speaker 1: come to the four two. Somebody, somebody should have said,
- 38:11Speaker 1: and there was nobody that should have said that. They
- 38:12Speaker 1: could have said it, right, but him at that moment
- 38:15Speaker 1: should have said, Hey, all the stuff that they're doing
- 38:18Speaker 1: is filed. They filed. You ain't crazy, they are. They
- 38:22Speaker 1: are out of pocket, and I'm gonna say something to him, right,
- 38:26Speaker 1: But see, when we go to do that, now, we're
- 38:28Speaker 1: responding from people want to want to position us as
- 38:32Speaker 1: we're responding from what's small in us, and we're not.
- 38:35Speaker 1: When we're protecting each other, and protecting doesn't all doesn't
- 38:39Speaker 1: necessarily always mean physical protection, but Sometimes you gotta talk.
- 38:43Speaker 1: Sometimes you gotta say, look back up, we're talking to
- 38:47Speaker 1: her like that. That's not that's not how we're supposed
- 38:50Speaker 1: to get down. And you're not gonna do it. You
- 38:52Speaker 1: may do it in front of other people, but you
- 38:53Speaker 1: can't do it in front of me. Right, So you're
- 38:56Speaker 1: absolutely right. And but but that's what quaking is about.
- 38:59Speaker 1: It is about us beginning to really understand that they
- 39:03Speaker 1: got this structure in the philosophy is going to is
- 39:07Speaker 1: going to eviscerate you. So you might as well say
- 39:10Speaker 1: something while you're trying to do it. You know, in
- 39:12Speaker 1: the first chapter of the book, you quote, uh, Stewart
- 39:15Speaker 1: Stevens who says, for the first time since eighteen sixty
- 39:18Speaker 1: a major American political party, the Republicans, doesn't believe America
- 39:21Speaker 1: as a democracy. How significant is that, Steve? We've always
- 39:25Speaker 1: known that, right, That's right, We've always so So I
- 39:28Speaker 1: had I had an indigenous brother tell me one time, um,
- 39:31Speaker 1: when back this is years ago, when I was arguing
- 39:33Speaker 1: about you know, uh, you know, political parties and stuff
- 39:37Speaker 1: like that, you know, the Republicans and the Democrats, and
- 39:40Speaker 1: one of the things he said, and we just both
- 39:42Speaker 1: start laughing. When he said he said right wing, left
- 39:45Speaker 1: wing all part of the same racist birds. And and
- 39:49Speaker 1: that's what that means, that that I don't you know
- 39:52Speaker 1: in in in in the book, I really go at everybody.
- 39:56Speaker 1: I'm going at because because I think we have to
- 39:58Speaker 1: have a more mature understanding about what we're dealing with.
- 40:02Speaker 1: This idea that we're going to, uh, we're going to
- 40:05Speaker 1: resolve this by putting more Democrats in office, We're going
- 40:08Speaker 1: to resolve this by putting more Republicans in office, or
- 40:12Speaker 1: or whatever really misses the point. The point is is
- 40:15Speaker 1: that there is a racist ground founding of this country.
- 40:20Speaker 1: And if you don't understand that, and if you don't
- 40:23Speaker 1: have your own self interest clear, then you'll be fooled.
- 40:28Speaker 1: You'll think that Joe Biden a dude who ushered in
- 40:32Speaker 1: some of the most horrible laws as it relates to
- 40:36Speaker 1: black people. You'll think that he's your savor right as
- 40:40Speaker 1: opposed to know, maybe what I need to do is
- 40:44Speaker 1: understand what my self interest is and make sure that
- 40:46Speaker 1: he applied that he does what I need him to
- 40:49Speaker 1: do for our people. And so that's what that statement
- 40:53Speaker 1: is about. It is about us being more and more
- 40:55Speaker 1: clear about what we're seeing is actually happening. Yes, it's
- 41:00Speaker 1: actually I mean because it's not normal. But for some
- 41:03Speaker 1: reason it's all coming off. It's like this is supposed
- 41:06Speaker 1: to happen, like no, no, this isn't even politics anymore.
- 41:09Speaker 1: It's not. And when you have listen, more white women
- 41:15Speaker 1: voted for Trump the second time than the first time.
- 41:19Speaker 1: I mean, just this, after all of that, after all
- 41:24Speaker 1: of that, they voted for him in more numbers. That
- 41:29Speaker 1: lets you know that there's something about that thing that
- 41:33Speaker 1: he's selling that is so intrinsic to America that even
- 41:37Speaker 1: when he shows you I don't give a hoot about you,
- 41:41Speaker 1: you still vote for him in droves. That's the fleeing
- 41:43Speaker 1: stuff that I believe never got them right among white folks.
- 41:47Speaker 1: Um what I call plantation ethics, right, the idea that
- 41:52Speaker 1: you have a strong man, right in particularly a strong
- 41:55Speaker 1: white man, that that that that absolves you of all
- 41:59Speaker 1: of your sins, right and and we'll protect you at
- 42:02Speaker 1: all costs. That's that runs through America, all right. We
- 42:06Speaker 1: have more with Resuma Minican when we come back, don't move.
- 42:08Speaker 1: It's the breakfast club. Good morning Morning, everybody is d morning,
- 42:12Speaker 1: everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we
- 42:16Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club was still kicking in with author
- 42:19Speaker 1: resume Medican that don't forget He's gonna be at Angela
- 42:21Speaker 1: Ye's coffee shop today signing books. Charlomagne, I love talking
- 42:25Speaker 1: to you for a number of different reasons. But you know,
- 42:27Speaker 1: even just the way you see things, because you know, hell,
- 42:29Speaker 1: people see things differently, right, Like when you talk about
- 42:32Speaker 1: the Christen Will situation, all I saw was pain period, right,
- 42:35Speaker 1: But you also had some interests and things. When you
- 42:38Speaker 1: saw Cordack Black, you said you saw something that that
- 42:41Speaker 1: young brother worries me. The pain and the brutality and
- 42:45Speaker 1: the things that he's seen and the things that he's experienced.
- 42:48Speaker 1: We have a tendency when people are stars in their
- 42:52Speaker 1: in their movie stars and all of that different type
- 42:54Speaker 1: of stuff, we have a tendency to almost almost shun
- 43:00Speaker 1: their pain. And when I'm listening to the brother and
- 43:03Speaker 1: I'm listening watching his cadence and watching his you know,
- 43:06Speaker 1: his his the way that he moves. Um, there's a
- 43:09Speaker 1: tremendous amount of brutality that that brother has experience, that
- 43:13Speaker 1: he's seen and UM and I believe we have to
- 43:18Speaker 1: start to begin to see each other's humanity. And so
- 43:23Speaker 1: when I see him, and I've saw seen you y'all
- 43:26Speaker 1: interview him. Every time I see him, my heartbreaks. When
- 43:30Speaker 1: I saw it, when I saw will you know, slap Chris,
- 43:34Speaker 1: my heart broke because there's a rupture that has happened
- 43:38Speaker 1: that that until it's so big and demonstrative, that's when
- 43:41Speaker 1: we pay attention to it, right. But when it's when
- 43:44Speaker 1: it's when it when they're entertaining us, we don't see
- 43:47Speaker 1: the rupture, right. And and when I called you about him,
- 43:51Speaker 1: when I said, you know, if reach out to that brother,
- 43:54Speaker 1: let him know, right, Um, That's what I was trying
- 43:57Speaker 1: to get at was that I saw the I'm there,
- 44:00Speaker 1: I'm I'm hurting, I'm in pain too, so I know
- 44:04Speaker 1: what it's like when I see it, um. And so
- 44:06Speaker 1: the idea of rupture, that seeing rupture and developing ways
- 44:11Speaker 1: to repair that rupture is what we have to be
- 44:14Speaker 1: about with each other. Yeah, I mean it's not normal, right,
- 44:17Speaker 1: Like even when you saw what we saw what we
- 44:18Speaker 1: saw the oscars. Yeah, you get your jokes off and
- 44:21Speaker 1: it's entertaining, but that's not normal. That's not that's a
- 44:24Speaker 1: man who for thirty years, we have never seen any
- 44:26Speaker 1: of that. You're absolutely right. So there was two pieces
- 44:29Speaker 1: that happened for me that that happened that during that thing.
- 44:31Speaker 1: The first one was when he started walking up. I
- 44:34Speaker 1: was like, you could, you could experience it, right, And
- 44:38Speaker 1: then when he did what he did, and you could.
- 44:40Speaker 1: You saw Chris's face and you could see the heartbreak
- 44:42Speaker 1: in his face, like what you know, like that because
- 44:45Speaker 1: that's that's that's exactly right. And but but the other
- 44:50Speaker 1: piece that I saw, brother, was after that. This is
- 44:52Speaker 1: what I called about the rupture. There was a rupture
- 44:54Speaker 1: and then the repair was Then you had two older
- 44:58Speaker 1: black men that wrapped up arms around Will, right, you
- 45:02Speaker 1: had Tyler Perry and den Zail wrapped their arms around them.
- 45:06Speaker 1: That's the repair pieces you called Chris checked on it.
- 45:10Speaker 1: That's the repair pieces, right. Those are the repair pieces
- 45:14Speaker 1: that you keep coming back to. That we have to
- 45:16Speaker 1: keep coming back to because otherwise we'll be trapped into
- 45:18Speaker 1: thinking that the only thing that's out there is rough. Sure, Na,
- 45:23Speaker 1: that's not the only thing. The standard is repair, The
- 45:26Speaker 1: standard is loved, The standard is joy right, and when
- 45:30Speaker 1: when when Will did that? And those two older brothers
- 45:33Speaker 1: wrapped their arms around him and said, come here, man,
- 45:35Speaker 1: I love you. This was out of pocket. And I
- 45:39Speaker 1: love you. When you reached out to Chris ay Man,
- 45:42Speaker 1: I love you. That was out of pocket. Whatever you need,
- 45:45Speaker 1: I got you, right, that's that's the standard. And you right,
- 45:49Speaker 1: everybody's talking jokes. Everybody got their opinion. Right. If Will
- 45:53Speaker 1: would have did this to me, I did, that's besides
- 45:56Speaker 1: the point, right. The point is is that our people
- 45:59Speaker 1: are hurting. The point is and it's going and it's
- 46:02Speaker 1: gone unaddressed, continues to go unaddressed, and we have to
- 46:05Speaker 1: start addressing it. I think that is a way to
- 46:08Speaker 1: protect black women. What happened, and I saw that conversation
- 46:12Speaker 1: happening amongst a lot of people, right black You know
- 46:15Speaker 1: how I protect Black women in my life. I don't
- 46:18Speaker 1: hurt them physically. You know, I tect black way in
- 46:20Speaker 1: my life. My wife. I don't cheat on my wife.
- 46:23Speaker 1: You know, I protect black women in my life. I
- 46:25Speaker 1: love my daughters right right, and yourself, and I do
- 46:29Speaker 1: my own and and and I'm a therapist that I've
- 46:31Speaker 1: been a therapist for a lot of years. I have
- 46:33Speaker 1: a therapist, right because because when you when you're in
- 46:38Speaker 1: the middle of a thing. You can't see on the
- 46:40Speaker 1: outside of a thing, right, you need somebody on the
- 46:42Speaker 1: outside saying, Hey, this is what I'm tracking. This is
- 46:45Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So how I love black women is
- 46:48Speaker 1: to work on myself and get myself better and get
- 46:51Speaker 1: myself healed. Right, so the black women that come to
- 46:55Speaker 1: come into my life are not brutalized by those unhealed things. Yeah,
- 47:00Speaker 1: I think emotionally and mentally we could cause more abuse.
- 47:04Speaker 1: It's about being a hurt individual. Exactly right, you know,
- 47:06Speaker 1: exactly right. Our people have so much love in us.
- 47:10Speaker 1: We have so much love in us, but it's been
- 47:13Speaker 1: thwarted and brutalized. And even with that, we're still reaching
- 47:18Speaker 1: out to each other. We're still saying, brother, I love you, Sister,
- 47:21Speaker 1: I love you. This matters to me, right, But there's
- 47:24Speaker 1: a lot of on her. And here's the other piece.
- 47:28Speaker 1: The brutality that our people experienced is not post we
- 47:35Speaker 1: talk about post traumatic stress disorder. Our people don't experience
- 47:38Speaker 1: post traumatic stress disorder. Our people experience pervasive and persistent
- 47:43Speaker 1: traumatic stress disorder. It's still happening. Post would imply that
- 47:46Speaker 1: it's done in past. We're still dealing with a pervasive brutality,
- 47:51Speaker 1: a pervasive terrorism that is aimed at our bodies, and
- 47:56Speaker 1: we haven't been able to articulate it, we haven't been
- 47:59Speaker 1: able to develop a cultural understanding of it. And so
- 48:03Speaker 1: part of what quaking is is to say you're not crazy,
- 48:07Speaker 1: you're not defective. What you think is actually happening, is
- 48:10Speaker 1: actually happening. Even when you talk about the standard being Joy, Yeah,
- 48:15Speaker 1: that shouldn't be a hard concept for me to grasp
- 48:17Speaker 1: what it is. Yeah, Like if that black people standard,
- 48:19Speaker 1: I don't. Yeah, Well, let me say this, Black bodies,
- 48:23Speaker 1: black people don't come to the planet disconnected from creation itself. Okay,
- 48:31Speaker 1: we are representations of creation itself. The first human being
- 48:36Speaker 1: on the planet was a black woman. We are descended
- 48:40Speaker 1: from that. Okay. Joy is part of us because we
- 48:45Speaker 1: are part of creation. What happens is is that the
- 48:48Speaker 1: brutalness and the feralness of this white body supremacy system
- 48:52Speaker 1: and structure thwarts it. It doesn't eliminate it, it thwarts it.
- 48:57Speaker 1: It's like it's like putting a cap on on on
- 49:01Speaker 1: some mountain dew and shaking it up. Right, it'll come
- 49:04Speaker 1: out the sides and everything right. But but it gets
- 49:08Speaker 1: thwarted by the cap That's what trauma is. That's what
- 49:11Speaker 1: racial trauma is. It thwarts it. But the but the
- 49:14Speaker 1: essence is joy. Let me let me give you an example.
- 49:17Speaker 1: When that thing happened with Chris and and and Will,
- 49:23Speaker 1: you reached out to Chris because you loved him. That's
- 49:28Speaker 1: the standard. That's the that's the standard. Right. If it
- 49:35Speaker 1: had not have been the standard, you'd have been like,
- 49:37Speaker 1: uh them, right, No, it was the standard. Right, you
- 49:42Speaker 1: went back to the standard. I love Besides all of
- 49:45Speaker 1: this stuff, I love you, I love you, right, I
- 49:49Speaker 1: don't care. I don't care who else reaches out. I
- 49:52Speaker 1: love you. And so you made that move, right, that's
- 49:56Speaker 1: the standard. We get so caught up day to day
- 49:59Speaker 1: trying to deal with this brutality that we think the
- 50:01Speaker 1: standard is the fighting, that we think the standard is
- 50:04Speaker 1: the rupture. Yeah, that's not the standard. His name is
- 50:08Speaker 1: Resum Momenticum. Yes, yes, he's one of our greatest teachers,
- 50:13Speaker 1: one of our greatest healers. Man, if you got my
- 50:15Speaker 1: grandmother's hands and you definitely want to go get the
- 50:17Speaker 1: Quaking of America an embodied guide in navigating our nation's
- 50:21Speaker 1: upheaval and racial reckoning. Resume always a pleasure my brother,

- 51:00Speaker 1: Love is speaking out following the news that the reel
- 51:02Speaker 1: has been canceled. She said she is thankful for the
- 51:04Speaker 1: people who have reached out to her, and she posted
- 51:07Speaker 1: with the news of the real ending. I had to
- 51:08Speaker 1: console a lot of crew and fans this weekend. I've
- 51:11Speaker 1: been in this business a long time and understand it,
- 51:13Speaker 1: but it still warms my heart that so many have
- 51:16Speaker 1: reached out to me. We still have new episodes till
- 51:18Speaker 1: June third the reel, so we'll miss seeing Nasha that
- 51:22Speaker 1: was on for quite some time. Yeah, eight seasons, so
- 51:26Speaker 1: that's a success still, no matter what. All Right now,
- 51:29Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian has fears that there could be another sex
- 51:32Speaker 1: tape out there, and so she has hired attorneys to
- 51:36Speaker 1: prevent any type of clips or anything from ever seeing
- 51:39Speaker 1: the light of day, even though she said she's ninety
- 51:41Speaker 1: nine percent sure that there is nothing. She just wants
- 51:44Speaker 1: to make sure that, no matter what, any videos will
- 51:47Speaker 1: never ever come out. I saw that one of her
- 51:51Speaker 1: kids actually saw about the sex tape on roadblocks while
- 51:55Speaker 1: playing roadblocks, and so I'm sure that's not easy, but
- 51:58Speaker 1: she has said previously she would addressed that with her
- 52:00Speaker 1: children and be very open and honest about what happened.
- 52:04Speaker 1: All right. Nia Long has talked about the pressure of
- 52:07Speaker 1: being called ageless. She said, I am a proud fifty
- 52:10Speaker 1: one years old. She told people that well intended praise
- 52:15Speaker 1: like being called ageless, can sometimes implicitly feed into unrealistic
- 52:19Speaker 1: beauty standards. She said, I so appreciate the compliment, but
- 52:22Speaker 1: I have to tell you there's so much pressure in
- 52:24Speaker 1: this industry to stay beautiful and stay young, and I'm
- 52:26Speaker 1: really not interested in leaning into the idea of perfection.
- 52:29Speaker 1: I'm a proud fifty one, and eventually I'm going to
- 52:31Speaker 1: age in a way where it's obvious, and I want
- 52:33Speaker 1: it to happen beautifully and gracefully. I don't really want
- 52:36Speaker 1: the pressure of feeling like I have to be beautiful
- 52:37Speaker 1: and perfect, because I think beauty comes at any age.
- 52:40Speaker 1: That's interesting, And she's right. I don't think it's about
- 52:42Speaker 1: being young, though. I think that you know, when you
- 52:44Speaker 1: see when we were younger, older people used to look
- 52:47Speaker 1: actually older. So when you see somebody that's fifty something
- 52:49Speaker 1: years old and they still look flawless, You're like, damn,
- 52:54Speaker 1: that's how humans are supposed to age, right, I would think, right,
- 52:57Speaker 1: supposed to get better with time. I think so all right. Now,
- 53:00Speaker 1: Cam Newton was one million dollars worth of game, and
- 53:04Speaker 1: he was talking about his childhood and his views of
- 53:07Speaker 1: what a woman's role should be. Here is what was said.
- 53:10Speaker 1: I grew up in a three parent household, my mom,
- 53:13Speaker 1: my father, and my grandmother. A woman for me is
- 53:16Speaker 1: handling your own but knowing how to cater to a
- 53:20Speaker 1: man's needs. And I think a lot of times when
- 53:23Speaker 1: you get that aesthetic of like I'm a boss bitch,
- 53:26Speaker 1: like I'm a dead so I'm a dad, no baby, Like,
- 53:29Speaker 1: but you can't cook, okay, you don't know when to
- 53:31Speaker 1: be quiet. You don't know how to allow a man
- 53:34Speaker 1: to lead. Ooh, I don't know. That caused a lot
- 53:38Speaker 1: of backlash on social media, saying you can't be a buss,
- 53:41Speaker 1: but you don't know how to cook, you don't know
- 53:43Speaker 1: when to be quiet. I mean, it just sounded a
- 53:46Speaker 1: little crazy to talk about women like that. So I mean,
- 53:50Speaker 1: I get what he's saying, Like, the only difference is
- 53:53Speaker 1: it works both ways, like we got to cater to
- 53:55Speaker 1: each other. Like I personally I can do all that
- 53:57Speaker 1: except the cooking. All right. If you're a man that
- 53:59Speaker 1: knows how to cook, great, but I personally don't know
- 54:01Speaker 1: how to cook. My wife is an amazing cook and
- 54:03Speaker 1: she learned that from her dad because he's a cook.
- 54:05Speaker 1: So I think, God, my wife knows how to hold
- 54:07Speaker 1: it down. The one thing I do disagree with him
- 54:09Speaker 1: is the if you have to wait to let someone
- 54:12Speaker 1: let you lead, and maybe you're not a leader, Like
- 54:16Speaker 1: what does that mean? What does that mean when he says, um,
- 54:18Speaker 1: a woman have to let you lead? I don't know,
- 54:22Speaker 1: but I'm all in for roles at the crib, Like
- 54:24Speaker 1: there's certain things that my wife expects me to do,
- 54:27Speaker 1: and there's certain things I expect that. What I'm saying
- 54:29Speaker 1: is it goes both, not like, oh she gonna do this,
- 54:31Speaker 1: I'm gonna know. It's certain things like you know, for instance,
- 54:34Speaker 1: and to be quiet. My wife is not taking out
- 54:38Speaker 1: the garbage. I'm taking out the garbage, yes, and if
- 54:40Speaker 1: she takes it out, I get upset that take out.
- 54:44Speaker 1: That's me, all right, And you feel bad when she
- 54:47Speaker 1: got to tell you to do it. You do what
- 54:50Speaker 1: she gotta tell you to do what you feel like,
- 54:51Speaker 1: you didn't do what you're supposed to do, right? What job?
- 54:54Speaker 1: The kind of what he's saying is that women need
- 54:56Speaker 1: to let men lead and that I guess when that happens,
- 55:00Speaker 1: women have to be more submissive. And I don't know
- 55:04Speaker 1: about that one, but he also said I'm going to
- 55:06Speaker 1: tell the men to start being men. He said that
- 55:08Speaker 1: sucker ish should not be rewarded, and what he said
- 55:11Speaker 1: about the bad be thing too, I agree with that
- 55:14Speaker 1: because most women who say that they say that based
- 55:16Speaker 1: off just physical appearance, superficial things. I like when people say,
- 55:19Speaker 1: you know, they're bad bees for what they are doing,
- 55:21Speaker 1: for what they are accomplishing, not because of how they look.
- 55:24Speaker 1: You need to have more than just that. Correct. Well,
- 55:26Speaker 1: you can be a bad bee and a boss bee
- 55:29Speaker 1: and not know how to cook. Yeah you can. You
- 55:33Speaker 1: definitely can't because he said, you can't say I'm talking
- 55:36Speaker 1: about no, I'm talking about what he said. Oh, this
- 55:39Speaker 1: is what he said. Okay, he said that woman for
- 55:41Speaker 1: me is handling your own but knowing how to cater
- 55:43Speaker 1: to a man's needs. He said, I'm a boss bitch.
- 55:46Speaker 1: I'm at this. I'm at that. No, baby, but you
- 55:48Speaker 1: can't cook. You don't know when to be quiet. You
- 55:50Speaker 1: don't know how to allow a man to lead. And
- 55:53Speaker 1: I think there's certain times when a woman is going
- 55:55Speaker 1: to lead in a situation. In certain times when a
- 55:57Speaker 1: man is going to lead, you gotta be worthy of
- 56:01Speaker 1: being a leader. Like that person has to look at
- 56:03Speaker 1: you and say, you know what, this person is worthy
- 56:04Speaker 1: of being a leader. I'm gonna follow this person because
- 56:07Speaker 1: they're a good leader, not just because I'm saying, hey, Lee,
- 56:09Speaker 1: you can let anybody. You can let anybody lead. That
- 56:12Speaker 1: don't mean that they're a leader. They might lead you
- 56:13Speaker 1: off a cliff. And like you said, boss bitch, ain't
- 56:15Speaker 1: gonna do what looks no bad bee, he said bad,
- 56:17Speaker 1: bad bad bee bad. He said both. He said bad
- 56:20Speaker 1: and he said boss. And you definitely can't be a
- 56:23Speaker 1: boss just because of your looks. You know, if you're
- 56:25Speaker 1: a boss and you actually are in charge of something,
- 56:28Speaker 1: you know what I mean, you've got something to show
- 56:29Speaker 1: for it. All right, Well that is your rumor report.
- 56:32Speaker 1: All right, Well let's get to the bad bitch in
- 56:34Speaker 1: the in the room. I'm glad, you know, for a
- 56:36Speaker 1: number of different reasons I did not I rubbed my
- 56:40Speaker 1: chest other than just my body. Okay, okay, I am
- 56:43Speaker 1: a bad beas be right, for a lot of different reasons. Well,
- 56:47Speaker 1: you're giving that Julian Bridges. She needs to come to
- 56:50Speaker 1: the front of the congregation. Let's talk diarya this morning.
- 56:53Speaker 1: All right, we're getting walking up the ladder and you're
- 56:55Speaker 1: hearing something splatter? What is that? Diarrya dia dia dia.

- 57:05Speaker 1: all right, it's the breakfast Club. Go morning, the Breakfast Club.
- 57:08Speaker 1: Your mornings will never be the same. Hey, it's Angela yee.
- 57:12Speaker 1: Have you taken a look at the General insurance lately?
- 57:14Speaker 1: Switch to the General and you could say it over
- 57:16Speaker 1: five hundred dollars on your current insurance. Call eight hundred
- 57:19Speaker 1: General or visit the General dot com. The General Auto
- 57:21Speaker 1: Insurance Services, Inc. An insurance agency Nashville, Tennessee. Some restrictions apply.
- 57:27Speaker 1: Don't be out here at you like a donkey. It's
- 57:31Speaker 1: time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a big boy.
- 57:34Speaker 1: I could take it if you feel I deserve it.
- 57:36Speaker 1: Ain't no big deal, I know. Charlottegney, gott go out
- 57:38Speaker 1: and funny. You gotta say something you may not agree with.
- 57:40Speaker 1: Doesn't mean I'm Needing's getting that donkey, that donkey that
- 57:43Speaker 1: don't don't don't, don't don't donkey o the day right
- 57:46Speaker 1: here the breakfast club. Bitches, you can call me the
- 57:50Speaker 1: donkey of the day, but like I mean no, yes,
- 57:53Speaker 1: don't here to day for Tuesday, April twelve goes to
- 57:56Speaker 1: Julianne Budge. Julianne Budget is a forty seven year old
- 57:58Speaker 1: woman from Utah who was arrested in a hit and
- 58:01Speaker 1: run accident. Sadly, the two people that she hit have
- 58:04Speaker 1: transitioned two men whose names have not been released. Two
- 58:07Speaker 1: brothers died at Saint George Regional Hospital after witnesses attempted
- 58:11Speaker 1: life saving measures at the scene. Sending healing energy to
- 58:15Speaker 1: the families of those individuals and may God be pleased
- 58:18Speaker 1: with their souls. Situations like this will never sit right
- 58:21Speaker 1: with me because I hate when people lose their life
- 58:24Speaker 1: because of the carelessness and the recklessness of others. Okay,
- 58:27Speaker 1: I don't know when we will realize that the number
- 58:30Speaker 1: one thing that keeps us safe out here on this
- 58:33Speaker 1: planet is human behavior. That's it. We are all relying
- 58:38Speaker 1: on each other to stay safe. And when you do
- 58:40Speaker 1: things like decide to drive under the influence, it is
- 58:42Speaker 1: one of the most selfish decisions you can make, because
- 58:45Speaker 1: you're not caring about your life so much that you
- 58:48Speaker 1: decide to get behind the wheel of a car knowing
- 58:50Speaker 1: you got no business driving. That is not just the
- 58:54Speaker 1: blatant disregard for the life God gave you, It's a
- 58:56Speaker 1: blatant disregard for the life for everybody else who is
- 58:59Speaker 1: on the highway with you. Okay, imagine being the person
- 59:02Speaker 1: who's not under the influence, got their seatbelt on, licensed
- 59:05Speaker 1: registration insurance, all of the day. You're driving the way
- 59:07Speaker 1: you're supposed to, doing everything you're supposed to be doing,
- 59:11Speaker 1: and you getting the accident, Okay, hit by some donkey
- 59:13Speaker 1: who decided they just had to drink or get high
- 59:16Speaker 1: before they got behind the wheel. That is what happened
- 59:18Speaker 1: in this situation, except it was two bicyclists. Okay, but
- 59:21Speaker 1: I'm sure they had their helmets on, they were in
- 59:23Speaker 1: the bike lane. I guarantee they were doing what they
- 59:25Speaker 1: needed to do to keep the ecosystems safe. And here
- 59:28Speaker 1: comes the rupture that is Julie. Okay. Now, Julie told
- 59:32Speaker 1: authorities that she had been admitted to a hospital the
- 59:35Speaker 1: previous day and had been taking Fentonol through an IV drip.
- 59:39Speaker 1: She also failed to field sobriety tests after the accident,
- 59:42Speaker 1: and that's when police decided to lock Julie's ass up
- 59:44Speaker 1: for suspicion of driving under the influence. So let's be clear,
- 59:47Speaker 1: Julie arrested in a hit and run accident while under
- 59:51Speaker 1: the influence that killed two people. That's the real story.
- 59:53Speaker 1: That's what happened. We could wrap donkey of the day
- 59:56Speaker 1: right here. Okay, that's it, nothing more, nothing less. When
- 59:59Speaker 1: I tell you some donkey of the days just sell themselves.
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: Trust me when I tell you this, he haaw is selling.
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: But that ain't the only reason Julie is getting the
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: credit she deserves for being stupid this morning. Okay, See,
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: when Julie first got caught, that's not what she told police. Okay,
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: of course she did not. At first. She didn't say, hey,
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: I'm under the influence. That's why I ended up hitting
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: and running and killing two bicyclists. Nope, nope, nope. She
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: had another excuse. And when I tell you she pulled
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: this one out of her ass, I mean it literally,
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: according to her, came out of her ass. See. Julie
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: told police that the crash happened when she began defecating
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: on herself uncontrollably due to a medical condition. I'm not
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: making this up. I'm looking at the headline in the
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: NY Post. The headline reads, Utah woman blames fatal hitting
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: and run on uncontrollable defecation. Where I'm from, we call
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: that diarrhea. Okay, good old butt mud poogoo pooh water
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: that atol flavored you who. Let's go to Fox thirteen
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: Salt Lake City for the report. Police An update tonight
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: from Southern Utah, we're learning more about the person police
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: say hit and killed two brothers in Washington City this weekend.
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: Investigators say the two men were among dozens of cyclists
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: who were in the bike lane participating in the spring
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: Tour of Saint George. They were hit around two yesterday
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: afternoon on Telegraph Street in Washington City. Forty seven year
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: old Julie and Budge of Hurricane told police she had
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: a medical issue m the Julie told police the crash
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: happened when she began defecating uncontrollably due to a medical condition. Okay,
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: Jesus all right. Julie told police that she had various
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: medical issues, including irritable both syndrome, and that condition made
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: her defecate on herself without warning, which caused her to
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: swerve into the men. She also admitted she hit the cyclist,
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: but she presented yet another excuse when she said she
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: couldn't get her vehicle to stop. Now, I didn't read
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: a bunch of articles about this situation and listen to
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: a bunch of different news reports. If you were going
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: to blame this and run, Okay, man, I wish I
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: could cresh right now. Because according to Julia, it wasn't
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: just a hitting run. It was right. Okay, sugar honey,
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: iced tea. If you're gonna blame this accident on your
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: ands having a dishonorable discharge, okay, if there's a sudden
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: muddy playing condition going on in your drawers, then I
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: have one question. Where is the dodo? Okay? I didn't
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: see one police report that said we found biscuits and
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: brown gravy anywhere on you. Okay, I have shoted on
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: myself before. You shoted on yourself before, right, and I
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: have yes, Okay, happened to me in Columbia Soucoy line
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: of the ad L three drop on a Clowes BOMs
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: for the Metro. Happened to be right up here. What
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: happened to you? Oh yeah, that's when you threw your
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: drawers in the trash can. Yep, yeah, yeah, I remember that.
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: That's when they really thought some wild stuff going on
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: in this field. All right, Just let the record show.
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: It happened to me years ago when I was leaving
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: a king spot. And you know when your stomach gets
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: the bubbling and you can feel that an'tal eruption starting
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: to happen. When that hits your pants, it startles you,
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: but it doesn't make you drive off the road. Okay,
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: when you're riding in a Chevy and you're feeling something heavy,
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: all right, you know what it is. It's diarrhea. And
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: guess what when I turned my underwear into a fudge fountain.
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: I've never driven so perfect in my life. Okay. I
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: don't want to swerve and look like I'm out of
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: control when I had some Jingo jeans full of chocolate coleslaw. So,
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: Julie Budgers, who did you expect to believe this? Okay?
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: And I go back to my original point. If you
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: tell me that doodoo is the cause of your accident
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: as a police officer, I want to see the doodoo.
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: That is evidence, all right now. Julie Bridges is being
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: charged with, let me look it up, two counts of
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: automobile homicide due to criminal negligence, two felony counts of
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: failure to remain at an accident involving death, two counts
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: of duy with serious bodily injury by negligent operation, and
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: one alleged account of it being in run. She was
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: also slapped the misdemean a charge of reckless driving and
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: an infraction for improper plane travel. The moral, the moral
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: of the story is, can we all start looking out
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: for each other better? Please? Please give Julie budgets the
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: biggest he hull. Two people dead just because of the
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: negligence of one person human behavior, Us collectively are the
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: only reason we're keeping each other safe. We have to
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: make a conscious effort every day to do the right
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: thing so we don't end up hurting somebody else. All right, well,
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: thank you for that donkey to day next. Whatever happened

- 1:06:17Speaker 1: weird though, because like when we all know, live events
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: are a major part of our income, right, Like at
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: the end of the day, as a journalist, as a host,
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: you make a lot of money doing those. Yeah, let
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: me pull up traveling, let me and all of my
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: events got canceled for those two first months during the pandemic.
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: And I'm super big on faith and spirituality, and I
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: remember just surrendering because I was freaking out, like I
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, what's gonna like, literally, what
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: am I gonna do? I don't got the breakfast club,
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: Like I'm not, you know, I didn't have a good
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: hello exactly take a little cut, yeah, right, And so
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: we had to take that week goal. Oh we did choice.
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: I didn't remember when it came back because that's when
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: George Floyd passed. Remember came back when the end was
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: by myself. I used to go ahead to you, no,
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: but I was because I was like, that was a
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: good point like that was bad. But yeah, so I
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: remember just praying, being like, Lord, you open up whatever
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: you want me to do, and literally the opportunity started
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: to come after. I just started to get on Instagram
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: lives like everybody else and interview people, Like actually interviewing
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: people on live just kept me sane and in in
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: my craft. So that was really dope. What did you
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: learn about yourself? Pemic One that I trust myself, I
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: trust who I am, I actually respect who I'm becoming.
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: There's nothing in this, in this in my career that
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: I have been given. I earned every single spot that
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: I have ever been a part of. I started interning.
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: My first internship was with Donnie Simpson in his last
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: year in Radio UM in DC Warning Radio UM and
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: like that that was ten years ago and so like
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: I earned it. So you know, that was the biggest
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: thing for me. It was like I got to stop
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: doubting myself. I have to learn what to be confident
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: about in myself. And so I just fell in love
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: with who I am and I gave myself back to me.
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: Like I think for so many, so many of us,
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: we absorb people's energies and we become like reflections of
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: who they are instead of finding out who we really are.
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: And so the pandemic allowed me to just like get
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: away from everything that was a bar And I don't
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: say that again. We because we are around so many
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: people in energies, we end up absorbing and reflecting who
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: they are instead of who we really are. And so
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: what I realized was I was becoming reflections of all
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: these people that I loved and admire. Right, it wasn't
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: bad reflections, but it wasn't me. And so I was
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: able to sit with myself and be like, I don't
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: care that much about the beef. Like people just beef
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: is a part of the job, right, so you have
- 1:08:41Speaker 1: to cover it. But I'm like, I really don't care.
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: I get it, Like this has nothing to do with me. So,
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: you know, I just if we have to talk about
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: Will Smith Chris rob one more time, I think I'm
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: a pass, Well, it's a bigger conversation, even when it
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: is stuff like that. What's the bigger conversation, right? You
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: know what I mean? I mean, for me, for that,
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: it's mental health. With that, it's emotional intelligence. Men learning
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: not a process the emotions without violence. That's a bigger conversation. Yeah,
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: it's everybody like there is no winner in that. There
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: is no winner in that situation. It's really sad to
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: see all four parts. So um yeah, but yeah, that's
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: the biggest thing I did. I gave myself back to me.
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: I want to I want to do one of these
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: posts that you do because I want to go through
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: these some of these Jesus. Okay, because you did a
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: post and you kind of listed some of the accomplishments
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: that you had and sometimes we got to remind ourselves
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: of these things. Okay. So Black Girl Pod did our

- 1:10:44Speaker 1: that's my baby, that's my six We we just we U.
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: Courney Whittaker and I were a part of Wayen. Shout
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: out to Felicia Butterfield Jones and all of the founders,
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: Serena Thompson, all of them. Um. Felicia is now the
- 1:10:55Speaker 1: co president of the Recording Academy and just ran it
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: up at the Grammys. Um. But you know, we we
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: came up together in this industry, and that was my
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: favorite part of like being a part of my peer group,
- 1:11:04Speaker 1: like Scottie Bam, Sylvia Obell, Danielle Young, like, so all
- 1:11:08Speaker 1: of us came up together, especially in New York. And
- 1:11:11Speaker 1: so when I had them and Ween, like we really
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: felt like we had community. And then Black Girl Podcast
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: we formed that and so we learned really quickly early
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: on that like you need each other, we need people.
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: You have to have people that you can talk to
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: in this industry. And so yeah, yeah, that's you're one
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: of the people. Always mentioned him say this person should
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: have been on the radio a long time ago. It
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: doesn't seem like radios and interest anymore. Oh, I mean
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: I love radio right, like it was my that's my
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: first love. Radio. Like growing up in DC, we used
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: to live for the radio and like every morning, my
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: mom we would play Donnie Simpson. Then in the afternoons
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: and evenings it would be Big Tigger, DJ Flex and Rain,
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: like it was such a thing for us. And so
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: when I was able to get into radio, that was
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: where I affirmed that I could do this. Donnie Simpson
- 1:11:59Speaker 1: was is literal joy, Like it's there's certain people that
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: you meet and you're just like, I think, I don't
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: think you're human, Like you're just so nice, like your
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: literal joy. And he used to One of my favorite
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: things was he was like fifty something when I met
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: him and had been the original VJ. Like, first of all,
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: all journalists, if you know who Donnie Simpson is, you
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: must do your craft work like Donnie. He is the
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: original VJ, the original green eyed sole person like he's
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: He's always been this guy that I loved. And in
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: that time, the industry was very much reflective of making
- 1:12:33Speaker 1: the band, like if you you wasn't about to kill
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: the other person next to you and walk across the
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: bridge to get some cheesecake making in this industry, and
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: I was like, I just I like people like I
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: don't want to have to harm anyone to get to
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: the top. And Donnie affirmed that I could be a
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: kind human being, like no matter what, it didn't matter
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: if it was Jill Scott or the janitor. Everybody who
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: came into his studio when he was there left feeling better.
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: And so that affirmed that I could do it too,
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: Like I was like, oh, I want to do that.
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: I want to make sure that if I'm seeing people,
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: I see people like I see you like you matter
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: to me, and that with so many suicides and so
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: many things happening, that is even more important to me now.
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: So yeah, that's that. My first love is radio, but
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: always into television. I want to create more projects. I
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: have so many show ideas that I believe now now
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: is the time for me to actually just kind of
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: step into my own and create more storytelling. But yeah,
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: I love all forms of media. I don't think we
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: have to do radio. I think radio was a dream
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: because that was it. It was either radio or TV
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: all I well, don't hope we got more with Gia Peppers.
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: When we come back. It's the Breakfast Club, Good Morning Pring.
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: all the Breakfast Club is still kicking it with Gia Peppers. Ye. Yeah.
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: What about obstacles that you've had? Do we have time?
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: Because we also know being in this business, being a woman,
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: being a black woman can be a lot more difficult.
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: So what were some of the things that you went through?
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: I think that to overcome. The biggest thing I think
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: that I went through was real I remember. So watching
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: Genius was so beautiful to me. Shout out to Chika
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: and Kudi and Kanye. As complicated as the feelings I
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: have about Kanye, very complicated, But what I really loved
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: to watch in that documentary was like that hustle of
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: going into offices every day and trying to get people
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: to see you, because that was me, Like I my
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: first few breaks on TV was just on hosting in general.
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: It was just me going into offices and me like, no,
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: I promise you, I'm gonna kill it, Like I promise you,
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: I'm gonna kill it, and people being like you should
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: probably go into local news. You're a really nice girl.
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: You couldn't do great in Milwaukee. Now I'm not going
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: to Milwaukee. I live in New York. So y'all gonna
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: give me a chance to show you or not. And
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: so for me, it was always just trying to prove
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: that that I could do it and then finally believing
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: it myself. I was so used to struggling that when
- 1:14:52Speaker 1: things started to finally happen, I couldn't believe it, like
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: I was sabotaging it for myself, like I'd be like, oh,
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: it's not really a good ideal. It's just that I
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: didn't feel worthy of it because I'm so used to
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: grasping for it. When I finally got it, that's a
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: whole different type of lifestyle and mindset you had to have,
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: And so for me, it was grasping that, but then
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: also being paid less then men in this industry is
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: still a real thing, and it's a thing across all industries,
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: especially for black women. We all know the gender pay
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: gap is super real, but for black women, I think
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: we made like twain cents on the dollar compared to
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: like white men. And don't calle me on that. I'm
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: going to research that, but I know it's a it's
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: a there's a major gap. And so for me, standing
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: up for myself and negotiating what I really need has
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: been one of the hardest things because we all know
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: it's a relationship to a relationship, opportunity to opportunity industry.
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: So just because you do it in one place doesn't
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: mean they get you in another place. So for me,
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: I've always been like, all right, the rate is the rate.
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: If it's an opportunity that I really love will sometimes
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: we can do something with it. But I'm trying to
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: be real about me being a businesswoman and me understanding that.
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: And so for me, the biggest struggles were there, and
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: then like self worth, like understanding that I am enough.
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: What I say matters, my story matters. I didn't grow
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: up like everybody else, but that doesn't mean that I
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: have to be anybody else. Um and understanding that, like
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: not not being afraid of light, and being happy and
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: being good and and and being a person who like
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: likes to be integral, Like I don't care everybody can keep.
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: It's a lot of shade out here. The Shade Room
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: is grateful what they do. I follow them, but I
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: think that like, there also needs to be platforms that
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: are just as powerful that do the opposite of that right,
- 1:16:37Speaker 1: And it doesn't have to be quote unquote corny. You
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: can still tell a great story, but what are what
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: are we giving people at the end of that, what
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: are they walking away with? And so that's what I'm
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: really focused on doing. The daytime talk India's future. Thank you, Gia.
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: My friends were like, I'm so surprised you never went
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: up there because they're always correcting your neck, always saying
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: isn't it G and you It's always like, no, it's G.
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: You did the years I didn't. It's okay's and gear
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: when you get there. Yeah, thank you, Thank you guys.
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: It's not every time your name is always mentioned in
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: every TV room when it comes to any thank you
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: talking anything. Thank shows all the time. Thank you, somebody
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: hiring me, give me the job, two jobson. That's my sister.
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: I love her so much. She's She's another person that
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: can do no wrong and do everything right. But thank
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: you guys so much for having me. Everybody, please tune
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: into more than that everyone, Thank you more than that.
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: Thank you guys. The Breakfast Club, it's about report Angela. Well.
- 1:18:01Speaker 1: Rihanna is on the cover of Vogue magazine and the
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: article Oh baby, Rihanna's plus one. So it's a great shoot.
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: If you guys have a chance to go and take
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: a look at it. You can actually look at it
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: online right now. The whole entire article is out and
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: she talks about the internet having all types of thoughts
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: like how dare she be this naked and this pregnant?
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: But the vast majority of people greeted the moment with
- 1:18:25Speaker 1: a collective chair. Here was a beautiful woman at her
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: most abundant, sexy, and strong, delighting in the creative play
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: of getting dressed. So she also talks about her pregnancy.
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: In this article, she talks about getting really close with
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: Asat Rocky during the pandemic. She said that he became
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: her family during that time and she feels like she
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: can do any part of life by his side. She
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: also talked about how it took some time to get
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: over how well they knew each other in a frank capacity.
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: So sometimes somebody is friend zoned and then you don't
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: look at them in that way. But they did manage
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: to get through that clearly, So congratulations to the two
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: of them. That's interesting because the best relationships start from friendships,
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: Like your significant others should be your best friend, right,
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: But sometimes you feel like, I don't know if I
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: want to ruin this friendship in case things don't work out.
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: If y'all are really really tight and you find yourself
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: attracted to somebody, and then you take those things into consideration.
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: So she said it did take some time to get
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: over that. When it works, you're elevating the friendship actually
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: taking me too. And she also said that she recalled
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: thinking to herself there was no way she would be
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: shopping in maternity section. She said, I'm sorry, it's too
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: much fun to get dressed up. I'm not going to
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: let that part disappear because my body is changing. And
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: she said her goal is, in her words, to redefine
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: what's considered decent for pregnant women. So there you go,
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: all right now, w NBA's Kathy Engelbert, the commissioner is
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: talking about Brittney Griner. They kicked off Monday's WNBA draft
- 1:19:53Speaker 1: with an update on Britney Griner and she does remain
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: imprisoned in a Russian jail. Here's what the commissioner had
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: to say before we get into tonight's events. I want
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: to take a moment to reiterate the WNBA support for
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: Phoenix Mercury Star Britney Griner. Please know that getting her
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: home safely continues to be our top priority, and while
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: we are facing an extraordinarily complex challenge, there is strength
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: and community, especially the WNBA. She said, I know we're
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: all frustrated, but we do need to be patient. I
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: know the players have been amazing at following the advice
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: that they're getting and we're getting in order to not
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: jeopardize her safety in any way. So we just continue
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: to follow that advice and continue to work on it,
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: all right, So prayers out to Britney Griner. I know
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: they said she is safe fortunately, and I know it's
- 1:20:42Speaker 1: a crazy situation. She's been detained since February after allegedly
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: being found with cartridges containing hash during an airport security
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: check in Moscow. And I do wonder if more noises
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: in being made about this situation because they don't, you know,
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: for lack of a better term, don't want her to
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: seem so important because then she'd be a bigger political
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: piece for Russia. I heard somebody say that before. That's
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: why they have been telling people not to make too
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: much noise about it. Well, the commissioner said they are
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: following the advice that they're getting to not jeopardize her
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: safety in any way. So I'm sure the reason why
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: is because they're being told what to say, what not
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: to say, and what to do. So we're praying for
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: her safe return though, all right. Tory Lane says that
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: he was not talking about Megan the Stallion and the shooting.
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: On his new song Mucky James, he said, I see
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: all these blocks trying to connect it to and honestly,
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: I have more sense than that. I would not play
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: with the court order or the judge like that. Please
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: stop that narrative. So those are his words, all right.
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: Larry David has confirmed a new season of Curb Your Enthusiasm,
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: season twelve. He confirmed that Sunday night at an Emmy's
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: event that was presented by HBO Max. They had a
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: screening of season eleven episode The Watermelon, as well as
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: a live panel discussion. And so there's no further details
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: on season twelve. But y'all know, I love of Your Enthusiasm.
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: It's eleven seasons they've had so far, spread out over
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: twenty one years. I never got into it. I never
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: I never watched. It's hilarious. You could watch it on
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: the plane. They show a lot of episodes. I'll check
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: it out next flight when you're flying. But it's really
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: really funny. Jabe smooths on there. M Vica Fox is
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: on there for a while, Wanda Sykes is on there.
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: Um you don't you didn't never watch Seinfeld either? No?
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: All right, well, you know he created Seinfeld Larry David
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: all Right. Rick Ross has revealed that he's filming his
- 1:22:28Speaker 1: own TV show and it will be about wealth. Here's
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: what he had to say, and the perfect time is now. Yeah,
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: So what I'm gonna do is go ahead. I'm gonna
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: do me a show the time now. It's gonna be
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: about wealth based on success. We actually film it right now,
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: but I hope you're all ready for it because I'm
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: gonna talk some big numbers. Big numbers. It's the nine
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: figure club. You figure, ladies, blow me a kiss, make
- 1:22:54Speaker 1: love to me. In the metaverse, when when you say
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: you're making a show about wealth, that he's going to
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: teach people how to make money or show them how
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: he's making money, because nobody just wants to see a
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: show about wealth in two dollars twenty two and gas
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: prices right at all time, I thought it was he
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: was highlighting people that are doing well from the community,
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: that adam making money. That's what I thought. I could
- 1:23:13Speaker 1: be wrong. Well, they haven't given much information. It's unclear
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: if he's going to be on camera or he'll be
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: behind the scenes. But you know, some way, somehow, he's
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: gonna be talking about wealth. Let's just maybe it'll be entrepreneurship,
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: maybe it'll be I hope so, I hope it's educational, Yeah,
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: because nobody wants to see any lifestyles of the rich
- 1:23:32Speaker 1: and famous type stuff going on right now when the
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: gap between the halves and the have nots is so wide.
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: But with his business ventures, with his music, with his investments,
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: he's got a reported net worth of forty million dollars
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: to date, Ross doing great, So maybe some people want
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: to see how can they put themselves in position or
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: what are some ways that he's done what he's managed
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: to do with his portfolio, because it's not all just
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: for music, clearly, it's got to be it's got to
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: be educational. Yeah, I think for Ross, I think the
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: major if it is outside of music, whether it's Checkers,
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: wing Stop, or liquor brand or all the other restaurants,
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: and it's soon to be car shows. You know you're
