- 4:56Speaker 5: The NBA All Star rosters has been released in the
- 4:59Speaker 5: reserves as well. People are saying that Victim one beyond
- 5:02Speaker 5: but is not an All Star. But I think he's
- 5:04Speaker 5: putting up All Star numbers, isn't he.
- 5:06Speaker 2: I wouldn't say he's putting up All Star numbers. He's
- 5:09Speaker 2: definitely on track to be Rookie of the Year. He
- 5:11Speaker 2: should be, yeah, the All Star. I don't know if
- 5:14Speaker 2: he's an All Star.
- 5:15Speaker 5: I don't know him and Lively I think are doing
- 5:16Speaker 5: great as rookies. But people are saying that he might
- 5:19Speaker 5: he should have been an All Star.
- 5:20Speaker 2: But he's average with twin looking at the night averaging
- 5:22Speaker 2: twenty twenty twenty points ten rebounds.
- 5:25Speaker 4: That's all Star.
- 5:26Speaker 1: He's not an All Star.
- 5:27Speaker 4: Twenty points ten rebounds.
- 5:29Speaker 2: As a rookie. He's not an All Star yet, that's
- 5:31Speaker 2: an All Star. He's a super solid rookie. He's not
- 5:33Speaker 2: an all star.
- 5:33Speaker 4: I'm sure there's some people on this list that are
- 5:35Speaker 4: not averaging twenty ten.
- 5:37Speaker 1: I doubt that. All right, Well, what up Taz? Who's
- 5:40Speaker 1: going on?
- 5:41Speaker 7: DJ and B CHARLAMAGNEA God Peace?
- 5:43Speaker 4: All right, now we're sitting in the rip that Joe Madison.
- 5:46Speaker 7: Yeah, yesterday was the first day of Black history, and
- 5:48Speaker 7: one man for sure that left us a lot of
- 5:50Speaker 7: black history is the radio host and activist Joe Madison.
- 5:53Speaker 7: He passed away at seventy four.
- 5:55Speaker 6: Now.
- 5:55Speaker 7: He hosted the show on series ex sim called The
- 5:57Speaker 7: Black Eagle, where he champion human rights and civil rights
- 6:01Speaker 7: and so over forty year career, he collected a series
- 6:03Speaker 7: of impressions at accolades and awards, including being inducted into
- 6:06Speaker 7: the Radio Hall of Fame in twenty nineteen. But one
- 6:09Speaker 7: of my favorite parts about his career is how he
- 6:12Speaker 7: was an activists. He climbed the ranks of NAACP, being
- 6:16Speaker 7: Detroit's youngest chapter leader at age twenty four, to eventually
- 6:19Speaker 7: becoming the national political director and finally serving on the
- 6:23Speaker 7: nation's oldest civil rights organization board for fourteen years.
- 6:26Speaker 6: Now.
- 6:26Speaker 7: Tributes came in from everyone President Biden. Vice President Harris
- 6:31Speaker 7: tweeted this. She said that he aligned his platform with
- 6:34Speaker 7: a purpose, and through his decade long career in radio,
- 6:37Speaker 7: he championed the fight for quality injustice. Our nation is
- 6:41Speaker 7: better because of his voice. President Biden also said that along,
- 6:44Speaker 7: although he's no longer with us, we hope you join
- 6:47Speaker 7: in the fight to fight for injustice. But what I
- 6:50Speaker 7: loved about mister Madison, and I'm sure a lot of
- 6:53Speaker 7: people agree, is he was known for not holding back
- 6:56Speaker 7: on the radio.
- 6:56Speaker 8: Take a listening record.
- 6:59Speaker 1: I'm fine.
- 7:00Speaker 9: I think you need to work on your attitude.
- 7:02Speaker 2: You got attitude, and.
- 7:03Speaker 10: I think you ought to kiss my ass. How's that
- 7:06Speaker 10: for an attitude. First of all, I don't need you
- 7:08Speaker 10: telling me what my attitude is. I'm really pissed off
- 7:12Speaker 10: at what I'm hearing when I see stupid ass people
- 7:15Speaker 10: who want to be president of the United States. It
- 7:17Speaker 10: hasn't done a damn thing, can't do anything. Who is xenophobic? Racist?
- 7:22Speaker 10: But here's my attitude towards you. I'm a grown ass man, brother,
- 7:27Speaker 10: And if I want to hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
- 7:29Speaker 10: you hear me talking, Hey kid, hey, hot?
- 7:32Speaker 1: Is ass down?
- 7:33Speaker 10: And by the way, I'm in charge of this show.
- 7:36Speaker 10: I don't wake up in the morning worrying about what
- 7:39Speaker 10: you think. Do you understand me?
- 7:40Speaker 1: Are we clear it all right?
- 7:43Speaker 10: I don't give a damn about what you think. Are
- 7:45Speaker 10: you stupid or something? Dad favor Just keep listening.
- 7:48Speaker 5: That sounds like my dad's. Sounds like every black fall.
- 7:52Speaker 5: I love it.
- 7:55Speaker 1: My type of radio personality. You know what I'm saying.
- 7:58Speaker 2: You know you definitely use this platform to be of service,
- 8:01Speaker 2: So salute to that.
- 8:02Speaker 11: Brother.
- 8:03Speaker 7: Yeah, my grandfather loved mister Madison. You said it sound
- 8:06Speaker 7: like grandfather.
- 8:07Speaker 4: My grandpa and Pops kissed.
- 8:10Speaker 6: That's right.
- 8:11Speaker 7: My grandfather literally passed away watching he was in the
- 8:13Speaker 7: hospital and watching him on TV at the literally at
- 8:16Speaker 7: the moment you know that he passed away. So I'm
- 8:18Speaker 7: sure he has a lot of questions for him now
- 8:20Speaker 7: that if they have a chance to meet on the
- 8:21Speaker 7: other side. But yeah, my type of personality. So rest
- 8:24Speaker 7: in peace to mister Joe Madison. Remember he did that
- 8:27Speaker 7: hunger strike for seventy four days. He just did a lot.
- 8:29Speaker 7: Remember I think we talked about it here. We just
- 8:31Speaker 7: did a lot. As far as his activism, he did
- 8:34Speaker 7: a lot of marathons and I think it was in
- 8:36Speaker 7: a Guinness Book World of Records for raising money on air.
- 8:40Speaker 7: So just you remember that, just a lot. He's just
- 8:42Speaker 7: done a lot in radio very long time.
- 8:44Speaker 2: And yeah, I remember he did the hunger strike. He
- 8:45Speaker 2: did the hunger strike for voting rights rights. So he
- 8:50Speaker 2: never ate because that never happened.

- 11:02Speaker 1: Happy Cassan? What up?
- 11:04Speaker 4: Don't get it off your chest?
- 11:05Speaker 6: Man envy. I'm tired of these young, able body people
- 11:10Speaker 6: that's out here begging for money. Yesterday, this is just
- 11:14Speaker 6: one example. Yesterday, I'm at the gas station. It's this
- 11:18Speaker 6: guy in the gas station begging for money, talking about
- 11:21Speaker 6: he's trying to get a room across the street. And
- 11:23Speaker 6: I'm just like, God, don't do work. And I don't
- 11:27Speaker 6: think people understand that nobody really wants to work. I mean,
- 11:31Speaker 6: it's people out here that love their careers or want
- 11:34Speaker 6: to go to work. But for most of us nine
- 11:37Speaker 6: to five people, a lot of the time, most of
- 11:39Speaker 6: the time, probably it's a drag to get up, but
- 11:42Speaker 6: we forced ourselves to do it to handle our responsibility.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you know, you know, if you love
- 11:48Speaker 2: your job, though, it's not work. If you love what
- 11:50Speaker 2: you do, it's not work. So that's not for every everybody.
- 11:53Speaker 2: If some people actually do love what they do, like
- 11:55Speaker 2: we love what we do.
- 11:56Speaker 5: But Casana will say people, I won't say, you don't
- 11:59Speaker 5: know that man. You don't know what that man just
- 12:02Speaker 5: went through. He might have just lost his job, you know.
- 12:04Speaker 5: I mean, he might have just fell on hard time.
- 12:06Speaker 5: So you don't know. You know, it's easy to say
- 12:08Speaker 5: that these young able body people can just get a job,
- 12:10Speaker 5: but he might have.
- 12:10Speaker 4: Just lost a job and now even down to his
- 12:13Speaker 4: last you know what I mean.
- 12:14Speaker 6: I agree, and being I'm not saying that that's his
- 12:17Speaker 6: perity necessarily, it just made me think of this.
- 12:20Speaker 8: Think of this.
- 12:21Speaker 6: I but let me tell you this one time I'm
- 12:23Speaker 6: at the at the station and again not the same
- 12:26Speaker 6: he won. But so this god, he's begging for money
- 12:29Speaker 6: here and he's probably jugger than me at the time.
- 12:32Speaker 6: I'm probably twenty five, he probably forty two.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Hey, so I'm like, well, my job is hiring.
- 12:37Speaker 6: I could run and get you a job application because
- 12:39Speaker 6: I don't say that far from my job, and you
- 12:41Speaker 6: can put my name on it for a recommendation.
- 12:43Speaker 8: He kills me.
- 12:44Speaker 6: No, I'm waiting on my check to come through. He's
- 12:47Speaker 6: weighing on the disability check he tried to clear and
- 12:49Speaker 6: I'm just like, Oh, I mean.
- 12:51Speaker 8: I understand.
- 12:52Speaker 6: I don't know what the disability is or anything, but
- 12:54Speaker 6: a lot of these three fout heres just don't want
- 12:56Speaker 6: to work.
- 12:57Speaker 11: That's true.
- 12:58Speaker 1: I mean that that is true.
- 13:00Speaker 2: There's a lot of jobs out there that they could
- 13:01Speaker 2: be working, but they choose not to, you know what
- 13:03Speaker 2: I mean. But also a lot of people don't want
- 13:05Speaker 2: to have to work two in three jobs to make
- 13:06Speaker 2: into meat either.
- 13:08Speaker 1: You know, but I understand what you're saying. I agree.
- 13:10Speaker 1: I can see both sides.

- 13:47Speaker 8: mixed from? Where's that song? From Where is this from?
- 13:50Speaker 14: Oh?
- 13:50Speaker 8: Man, I don't know, man, interview sent it to me
- 13:52Speaker 8: personally something like that, when you know, if you intend
- 13:55Speaker 8: it to me, you know what I mean, stuff like that. Man,
- 13:57Speaker 8: it just hurts me, especially in my community. But we
- 13:59Speaker 8: have little kids. When my little kids teenagers, new birds,
- 14:03Speaker 8: you know, pretty bad area. With some of these kids,
- 14:06Speaker 8: they just want to get away. So I try to
- 14:08Speaker 8: give them, like you know, hard drives and stuff like
- 14:10Speaker 8: that to keep them off the streets. So they have
- 14:12Speaker 8: music and things like that for people just want to
- 14:15Speaker 8: gatekeep with certain music and don't want to help out,
- 14:17Speaker 8: you know, be the youngest to keep the DJ community going.
- 14:21Speaker 5: Now, I think the DJ community actually got a lot
- 14:22Speaker 5: better when I was. When I was coming up, there
- 14:24Speaker 5: was a lot of people not helping each other, not
- 14:27Speaker 5: wanting to talk and discuss certain things.
- 14:28Speaker 4: But I think that's changed a lot.
- 14:30Speaker 1: What do you need, I.
- 14:33Speaker 8: Know, just like you know, I mean, just to help
- 14:34Speaker 8: the young young kids. They don't have all the resources.
- 14:37Speaker 8: Like like I said, when I was younger, before I
- 14:39Speaker 8: thought anything of any equipment, you know, I mean, I
- 14:42Speaker 8: did my research. I was on YouTube. I was trying
- 14:44Speaker 8: to talk to the DJs, stuff like that I was young,
- 14:46Speaker 8: but nowadays feel like everybody just want to hold everything
- 14:49Speaker 8: to themselves.
- 14:49Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's just the people you're talking to.
- 14:51Speaker 5: I mean I meant to a lot of DJs and
- 14:53Speaker 5: helped them out, and you know, I'll be honest with you.
- 14:55Speaker 5: They they put me on in new music. You know,
- 14:57Speaker 5: I helped them out with whatever they need. So I mean,
- 14:59Speaker 5: you just talk into the wrong people. There's a lot
- 15:01Speaker 5: of DJs out there that will support and and and
- 15:03Speaker 5: help you. Hit me on the DM. So if you
- 15:05Speaker 5: ever need anything, you know I got your contact and
- 15:07Speaker 5: you could always hit me as well.
- 15:09Speaker 4: You know, I support and I love my DJs.
- 15:12Speaker 2: Salute everybody in Newburgh too. Man got mad love for Newburgh.

- 18:46Speaker 5: Let's start off with Wendy Williams all out of name
- 18:51Speaker 5: or you gossip been on you chatting.
- 18:54Speaker 1: Is the rumor report.
- 18:55Speaker 7: I mean, I guess we're on the breakfast club.
- 18:57Speaker 1: This is where the tea.
- 18:57Speaker 7: Spells right right now.
- 18:59Speaker 5: This is documentary coming out on February twenty fourth. In
- 19:02Speaker 5: February twenty fifth, the documentary is called where Is Wendy Williams.
- 19:08Speaker 4: Let's play a little bit of the trailer, please you.
- 19:10Speaker 11: Put in front of a judge and giving the guardian.
- 19:13Speaker 11: That's when they took it away from us.
- 19:15Speaker 7: I have no money, and I'm gonna tell you something.
- 19:18Speaker 1: If it happens to me, it could happen to you.
- 19:20Speaker 4: As her family, we were all sitting on the sidelines
- 19:23Speaker 4: watching and she was crying out for help.
- 19:25Speaker 1: Did you drink this whole thing today? Keep it there?
- 19:28Speaker 7: Okay, keep it there?
- 19:30Speaker 15: My mom.
- 19:31Speaker 11: She always talks, gosh, how she wants to work the
- 19:33Speaker 11: IFL as though she's working off.
- 19:37Speaker 15: She has people around who are yes people and allowing
- 19:40Speaker 15: this to continue.
- 19:41Speaker 9: This is all too much.
- 19:42Speaker 11: I think she's losing memory.
- 19:44Speaker 1: Have you guys noticed that? How dare him?
- 19:46Speaker 7: Anybody could look at her and tell this is not
- 19:49Speaker 7: just alcohol, There's something more going on.
- 19:53Speaker 2: I immediately prayed for Wendy after I watched that and
- 19:58Speaker 2: I don't understand why he got the cam. I' r
- 20:00Speaker 2: in that woman's face for what Obviously y'all taking advantage
- 20:04Speaker 2: of the dysfunctioning. Why do you want to document somebody's
- 20:07Speaker 2: somebody's uh downfall?
- 20:10Speaker 5: Basically see why she needs the money and she probably
- 20:13Speaker 5: got paid to do this the documentary. If she says
- 20:15Speaker 5: she has no money, she's not doing radio, she's not
- 20:18Speaker 5: doing her TV show?
- 20:19Speaker 1: Do we know she's getting the money?
- 20:20Speaker 2: If you hear people in the documentary, I think it
- 20:22Speaker 2: was her son saying that there's people around her taking
- 20:24Speaker 2: advantage of her. How do we know she's even getting
- 20:26Speaker 2: the money? How do we know somebody just didn't go
- 20:28Speaker 2: do this deal? And you hear somebody else say that
- 20:31Speaker 2: she's losing memory, So how we know that she even
- 20:33Speaker 2: knows that she's in the right frame of mind to
- 20:35Speaker 2: even know what she's doing money getting her If her.
- 20:38Speaker 4: Family's involved, you would hope she's getting the money right.
- 20:40Speaker 1: And you would hope.
- 20:41Speaker 16: So.
- 20:41Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 20:42Speaker 2: I genuinely feel feel compassion for her. I do so
- 20:48Speaker 2: that you know how I worked with her for three years.
- 20:50Speaker 2: You know that's how I even ended up in New
- 20:52Speaker 2: York City. You know from Columbia side. I was doing
- 20:54Speaker 2: radio on Columbia Sicking Line at the time. People know
- 20:56Speaker 2: that story, but I'm just saying, it's just like, yeah,
- 20:57Speaker 2: I genuinely do feel sorry for her. And also because
- 21:00Speaker 2: the level of miserable that y'all seeing now, a lot
- 21:02Speaker 2: of us saw that way way, way, way, way way
- 21:04Speaker 2: way back in the day. It's just clearly gotten worse.
- 21:06Speaker 2: The only thing I would tell folks is don't laugh
- 21:08Speaker 2: at Wendy Learn. It's a cautionary tale. And she says
- 21:11Speaker 2: that in the trailer. She says, if it can happen,
- 21:13Speaker 2: if it can happen to me, it can happen to anybody.
- 21:16Speaker 4: That's right. How how old is Wendy. She's in the sixties,
- 21:19Speaker 4: No fifties, I think fifty fifty.
- 21:22Speaker 2: I about to say, how this temperature, I'm gonna start
- 21:24Speaker 2: saying that about people age in a high high seventies, seventies,
- 21:27Speaker 2: I guess hot outside of something.
- 21:29Speaker 4: But she's not.
- 21:31Speaker 1: She's fifty nine. She'd be sixty this year.
- 21:33Speaker 4: I said sixties. He goes, no, hell, no, boy, she's
- 21:35Speaker 4: fifty nine.
- 21:36Speaker 1: But I didn't realize it.
- 21:38Speaker 4: It's not say she's fifty nine.
- 21:39Speaker 5: She you know, she hopefully she will get a second
- 21:42Speaker 5: shot at this thing called the music industry, and in
- 21:45Speaker 5: a entertainment world, why not.
- 21:46Speaker 1: Know at this point that should be the least of
- 21:48Speaker 1: anybody's concern.
- 21:49Speaker 4: Well after she gets to help, if she does need that.
- 21:52Speaker 2: Her son said it in the doc if you watch
- 21:53Speaker 2: the whole two in the trailer, her son said she
- 21:56Speaker 2: talks about wanting to work all the time.
- 21:58Speaker 1: He says, I think she's worked enough. She needs peace.
- 22:01Speaker 2: That's what she needs to spend the rest of her
- 22:04Speaker 2: life trying to do find find peace, not just not
- 22:08Speaker 2: just with herself, but you know, you know you want
- 22:09Speaker 2: to you hope for you hope for forgiveness.
- 22:12Speaker 1: You know what I mean, You hope if.
- 22:14Speaker 2: You've done any wrongs you can make them right for
- 22:17Speaker 2: in this moment.
- 22:18Speaker 5: But maybe she can do that in the in the
- 22:19Speaker 5: samement world. Maybe she can get back to what she
- 22:21Speaker 5: does because that's what she enjoys. It seems like that
- 22:24Speaker 5: kept her alive.
- 22:26Speaker 2: She need to be in front of nobody camera. To me,
- 22:28Speaker 2: it don't look like she needs to be in front
- 22:30Speaker 2: of nobody camera. To me, that's just my personal opinion.
- 22:33Speaker 2: And I also just want to tell y'all for all
- 22:35Speaker 2: of y'all that want to be the next one.
- 22:36Speaker 11: Dy Williams.
- 22:36Speaker 2: Just know oftentimes that style of broadcasting does not in

- 22:43Speaker 2: You know, Listen, you say what you want. You know
- 22:46Speaker 2: sometimes that that that energy you puts out, it does
- 22:49Speaker 2: come come back to you in a lot of ways, right,
- 22:51Speaker 2: So you know, you just you just gotta know that.
- 22:53Speaker 1: No, no, no, the whole totality of things.

- 27:19Speaker 19: other black and Latino men were falsely accused and convicted
- 27:22Speaker 19: of raping a white jogger in Central Park in nineteen
- 27:25Speaker 19: eighty nine.
- 27:26Speaker 9: If these laws were in place in nineteen eighty nine,
- 27:31Speaker 9: I'll vote on.
- 27:32Speaker 19: Of the fifty one council members, forty two voted in
- 27:35Speaker 19: favor of the bill, saying it will prevent racial profiling.
- 27:38Speaker 19: A federal monitor overseeing the NYPD stop and frisk tactics
- 27:42Speaker 19: last year found ninety seven percent of people stopped were
- 27:45Speaker 19: black or Hispanic.
- 27:47Speaker 7: Now, opponents say that reporting level one stops, which are
- 27:49Speaker 7: classified as non criminal encounters, will slow down response time
- 27:53Speaker 7: and take away from policing on the city streets. Here
- 27:56Speaker 7: is how Democrats and Republicans voted on the law in
- 27:59Speaker 7: their opinion. Take a list.
- 28:00Speaker 19: Several Democrats even voted in favor who had not previously.
- 28:04Speaker 14: Where people had to reconsider how their experiences are drastically
- 28:09Speaker 14: different than some of their colleagues of color.
- 28:12Speaker 19: All the Republicans on the council voted against it.
- 28:15Speaker 8: You must also acknowledge the small increments and administrative tasks
- 28:18Speaker 8: that can have cascading effects on our already stretched resources.
- 28:22Speaker 4: It's asking them to do more while they have less.
- 28:25Speaker 19: In a statement, the Police Benevolent Association said this will
- 28:28Speaker 19: contribute to rising nine to one one response times and
- 28:32Speaker 19: diminish police presence in neighborhoods.
- 28:35Speaker 7: So Mayor Adams, who's obviously a Democrat, he did not
- 28:38Speaker 7: support this bill. So this is still you know, up
- 28:41Speaker 7: to a lot of people have a different lot of
- 28:43Speaker 7: opinions on this.
- 28:44Speaker 4: All right, well, let's jump right to ron de Santis.
- 28:47Speaker 7: No problem, Ronda Santis, he is deploying State and National
- 28:50Speaker 7: Guard to Texas border. Yesterday he announced he is deploying
- 28:53Speaker 7: the Florida State Guard to support Texas during his ongoing
- 28:57Speaker 7: feud with federal officials at Eagle Pass. It is unclear
- 29:00Speaker 7: what the troops will be doing when they arrive in Texas,
- 29:02Speaker 7: but the move is the sent troops. That comes after
- 29:05Speaker 7: Governor Gret Abbott has defied of federal authorities in the
- 29:09Speaker 7: border community, claiming he's protecting his state from invasion. Here's
- 29:13Speaker 7: what a little bit of what rond de Santis had
- 29:14Speaker 7: to say at a fresh conference.
- 29:16Speaker 16: It has the authority to close this border today if
- 29:20Speaker 16: he wanted to.
- 29:22Speaker 1: He lacks the will to get the job done.
- 29:25Speaker 16: He lacks the capacity to see the problem for what
- 29:29Speaker 16: it is and to get the job done. And so
- 29:31Speaker 16: the American people are basically left scrambling, and they're left
- 29:35Speaker 16: to have to deal with this all.
- 29:37Speaker 11: On their rows.
- 29:38Speaker 2: These guys are just better at the political thing than
- 29:42Speaker 2: Democrats all man like, literally, like, the board is gonna
- 29:44Speaker 2: be a huge issue come election time. And that's why
- 29:46Speaker 2: Republicans don't want to work with Democrats to fix it,
- 29:48Speaker 2: because they don't want the Biden administration to get any
- 29:50Speaker 2: credit for fixing it. And if I was the Biden administration,
- 29:53Speaker 2: if I was Democrats right now, and if I was
- 29:56Speaker 2: also a Republicans who don't rock with Trump, I would
- 29:58Speaker 2: be letting everybody know the re than the border isn't
- 30:00Speaker 2: getting fixed.
- 30:01Speaker 1: It is because of Donald Trump.
- 30:03Speaker 2: He literally told Republicans not to do the deal that
- 30:06Speaker 2: Biden is laid out.
- 30:08Speaker 1: He's the shadow president.
- 30:09Speaker 2: He literally told Republicans not to do the deal, and
- 30:12Speaker 2: some Republicans are listening.
- 30:14Speaker 1: That's insane to me. Yeah, well that's how it goes.
- 30:17Speaker 7: I mean you, it certainly is insane. But again, you
- 30:20Speaker 7: got to run on something, you know, everybody on the
- 30:22Speaker 7: campaign has to run on something. They're running on immigration. Uh,
- 30:25Speaker 7: the Democrats are running on abortion. So he's not going
- 30:27Speaker 7: to give him those political points to score. Is it wrong?
- 30:31Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 30:31Speaker 7: But is that how politics campaigns work?
- 30:33Speaker 1: Yep?
- 30:33Speaker 7: Absolutely had an opportunity to fix the border when they
- 30:36Speaker 7: had control of the House and Senates. So now you've
- 30:40Speaker 7: given this this ball for Republicans to run with. In
- 30:42Speaker 7: twenty five Republican governors, including the Santis, are publicly supporting Abbott.
- 30:46Speaker 7: But this is going past just support. They're saying, we're
- 30:48Speaker 7: willing to even put troops on the ground for you.
- 30:50Speaker 7: I mean, this is just.
- 30:53Speaker 2: President aren't the truth fighting other federal authorities.
- 30:57Speaker 7: But they think they think this is important enough to
- 30:59Speaker 7: send to put some action behind, put someone walk behind
- 31:02Speaker 7: the talk war. Well, they's say they want to come
- 31:06Speaker 7: help with the invasion, that's all. But it's it's more
- 31:09Speaker 7: of a it's just like when they dropped the migrants
- 31:12Speaker 7: off at V. P. Harris's house. And this is a
- 31:15Speaker 7: statement they want to let you know, we're willing to
- 31:17Speaker 7: we're going to come together as governors. We're not just
- 31:19Speaker 7: going to talk about it, but we're actually going to
- 31:21Speaker 7: do something about it and make a political statement so
- 31:24Speaker 7: that they can get into the news and continue to push, uh,
- 31:27Speaker 7: push the what they believe on immigration, run on that.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Well after they put it on the floor and uh,
- 31:31Speaker 2: you know, Republicans vote against it. I hope the Democrats
- 31:34Speaker 2: immediately pivot to let folks know, you know what is
- 31:38Speaker 2: actually the problem, and the problem is the fact that
- 31:40Speaker 2: Donald Trump, the shadow president, jumped out there and told
- 31:43Speaker 2: Republicans don't do the deal.
- 31:45Speaker 7: Is it really the shadow president? And he making it
- 31:46Speaker 7: pretty known from.
- 31:48Speaker 2: He's the shadow president because he's not the official president.
- 31:51Speaker 2: But he's definitely he's definitely, she's definitely controlling things in
- 31:54Speaker 2: the GOP. Yep.
- 31:56Speaker 7: Well, that's why you gotta have something to run on.
- 31:58Speaker 7: And that's what they're doing on every level. Again, guys,
- 32:01Speaker 7: it's not just running for president, it's every level, governor,
- 32:05Speaker 7: state rep state center, you know, all of these, all
- 32:08Speaker 7: of the g people will be running on immigrations.
- 32:10Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't I don't respect any politician who puts, uh,
- 32:13Speaker 2: you know, politics over the people.
- 32:15Speaker 1: But that's majority of them.
- 32:16Speaker 7: Oh exactly, I guess you know what I'm saying, no
- 32:18Speaker 7: respect for no politicians.
- 32:19Speaker 1: Exactly exactly. Yes, that's exactly all right.
- 32:24Speaker 4: Well that is Front Page News thinking to you is absolutely.

- 33:25Speaker 11: I think it's gonna be big this time. At the
- 33:27Speaker 11: fortieth it was a lot of people so and you know,
- 33:29Speaker 11: you got a new book out when I was.
- 33:31Speaker 1: Your age, I should have brought the book. I wanted

- 33:34Speaker 2: I'm slipping when I was your age, Life lessons, funny stories,
- 33:38Speaker 2: and questionable parenting advice from a professional clown. First of all,
- 33:41Speaker 2: what made you want to write a book? Because you
- 33:43Speaker 2: always have been a very private person.
- 33:45Speaker 11: Yeah, it's the longest title ever. I just felt there
- 33:50Speaker 11: was time, you know, Like a lot of people, I
- 33:52Speaker 11: guess in my position, a lot of my heroes have
- 33:54Speaker 11: written books, you know what I'm saying. You got seven right, two? Yeah,
- 33:57Speaker 11: working on the third, so h yeah, And people approached me.
- 34:02Speaker 11: I was just trying to, you know, make sure I
- 34:04Speaker 11: had enough to talk about. Were like people that actually
- 34:07Speaker 11: read books, you know, And luckily I worked with a
- 34:09Speaker 11: great collaborator, DIBs Bear shout Out, you know, and yeah,
- 34:15Speaker 11: we put together a pretty good book. From what I'm hearing,
- 34:18Speaker 11: like the people that have read it seem to enjoy it,
- 34:19Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying. It's not like three hundred
- 34:21Speaker 11: pages or nothing, you know, which was kind of strange.
- 34:24Speaker 11: I'm like, damn, that's my life story, like so like
- 34:30Speaker 11: you know, but it has definitely been you know, a
- 34:33Speaker 11: really cool thing to share with the world and you know,
- 34:36Speaker 11: tell my story to my parents' story and you know, siblings,
- 34:39Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying, and like let people, you know,
- 34:41Speaker 11: kind of know the real me, the origin story kind
- 34:45Speaker 11: of thing that I don't necessarily get to tell on
- 34:46Speaker 11: you know, talk shows and stuff like that, because you
- 34:49Speaker 11: usually want to just talk about the current thing you're
- 34:51Speaker 11: there to promote or whatever. So yeah, it was a
- 34:53Speaker 11: cool experience.
- 34:53Speaker 1: Explained the long ass title because it's a lot there.
- 34:56Speaker 11: Yeah, you know, it's just like I guess I've been
- 35:00Speaker 11: doing it for so long that I had, you know,
- 35:02Speaker 11: a lot to kind of display, you know what I'm saying,
- 35:04Speaker 11: So I have to kind of explain what my position
- 35:07Speaker 11: is in this world so far in a capturing kind
- 35:11Speaker 11: of title and kind of tell people like what the
- 35:13Speaker 11: book is so they want to grab it and read it,
- 35:15Speaker 11: you know what I mean. And like that's probably why
- 35:17Speaker 11: the title is it's so lengthy. But you know, it's
- 35:20Speaker 11: also some comedy there, because yeah, it is so long,
- 35:23Speaker 11: and yeah, the good wordage of like being a professional
- 35:26Speaker 11: clown and stuff like that. You know, like I take
- 35:29Speaker 11: that really seriously, Like I'm an actor you know, so
- 35:31Speaker 11: like when I'm clowning around, it's usually for higher kind
- 35:34Speaker 11: of thing, you know, as you can see, like my
- 35:37Speaker 11: demeanor is pretty pretty level. You say, like I don't
- 35:39Speaker 11: really even be getting stressed out of my demeanor doesn't
- 35:42Speaker 11: change much. But yeah, big tourist energy over here, you
- 35:45Speaker 11: know what I'm saying, and like.
- 35:46Speaker 1: But you don't seem hard headed though most tourists is,
- 35:48Speaker 1: I know, hard headed.
- 35:50Speaker 11: I get stubborn about when I think I'm right, you
- 35:52Speaker 11: know what I'm saying, But like, no, I'm very good
- 35:54Speaker 11: with the flow kind of thing.
- 35:55Speaker 4: Do your kids take you serious? Or they always see
- 35:57Speaker 4: daddy as the clown and the joke the last.
- 36:00Speaker 11: I'm the clown, and I'm definitely in their way, you
- 36:02Speaker 11: know what I'm saying, Like I'm in their way for
- 36:04Speaker 11: having fun or whatever they want to do. Like you know,
- 36:07Speaker 11: when they around their friends, they don't want you know,
- 36:09Speaker 11: old Daddy's around them. You know, so they definitely think
- 36:11Speaker 11: they're funnier than me, and they probably are, Like they
- 36:15Speaker 11: definitely like make me laugh. But that's that dynamic. You know,
- 36:18Speaker 11: you're you could be you know, Michael Jordan's son and
- 36:21Speaker 11: think that your dad just only plays basketball as opposed
- 36:24Speaker 11: to being Michael Jordan.
- 36:25Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, you got a chapter title called I'm
- 36:28Speaker 1: Glad I went broke? When did that happen? You've been
- 36:32Speaker 1: You've been working since at least nine.
- 36:33Speaker 11: And foul yeo. Yeah, Like I've been blessed to continue working.
- 36:38Speaker 11: But y'all had a bad accountant and it came to
- 36:41Speaker 11: the light around ninety nine, like around two thousand, which
- 36:45Speaker 11: was really bad timing because that's right when I left
- 36:47Speaker 11: my consistent gig, you know what I'm saying. So then
- 36:49Speaker 11: I went into being an adult actor for hire, and
- 36:53Speaker 11: that is very hit and miss. So there was some
- 36:55Speaker 11: good jobs, like I did Felicity that was cool. And
- 36:58Speaker 11: I got to meet jj Abrams when he was young,
- 37:00Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying, And that's like a priceless
- 37:02Speaker 11: kind of a friendship, I would say, just because he's
- 37:06Speaker 11: grown to be, you know, such a major force in
- 37:09Speaker 11: the industry. But it was like six months until Love
- 37:12Speaker 11: Don't Cost a Thing, you know what I mean. I
- 37:14Speaker 11: was happy to get Loved Don't cast things. My brother Nick's.
- 37:16Speaker 1: Movie Nick Canny had.
- 37:18Speaker 11: Yeah, we had a lot in my house, you know
- 37:20Speaker 11: what I'm saying. I was like at your house. Yeah,
- 37:22Speaker 11: I was ridding this house that had a bunch of
- 37:24Speaker 11: space or whatever. But we was young, so it was like, yeah,
- 37:26Speaker 11: move all the furniture to silences, just you know, throw
- 37:28Speaker 11: a party and like invite everybody kind of thing back
- 37:31Speaker 11: in those days. So that was fun. But it was
- 37:33Speaker 11: still broke, you know what I mean, like just money
- 37:35Speaker 11: enough for the rent kind of thing. And yeah that
- 37:38Speaker 11: you know, the account was was dirty and I ended
- 37:41Speaker 11: up not letting that be the end all, be all
- 37:43Speaker 11: of what my life is going to be. So I
- 37:45Speaker 11: just you know, moved back to calaun and continue.
- 37:46Speaker 1: How much did they account and get you for.
- 37:48Speaker 11: A million and a half something like that? I mean
- 37:50Speaker 11: that was you know, my contractual like deal at the
- 37:53Speaker 11: time or whatever, but for like overall Nick nickelod Yeah,
- 37:57Speaker 11: for a few years or whatever, and then ye saw
- 38:00Speaker 11: none of it.
- 38:01Speaker 2: So you that ain't fun. You walked away from that.
- 38:09Speaker 2: So you walked away from nickelodeon the overall deal that.
- 38:13Speaker 11: Was just up, you know what I mean. You didn't
- 38:14Speaker 11: feel like we wanted to continue, like keen Nick hell
- 38:17Speaker 11: to college is like we couldn't figure it out basically,
- 38:19Speaker 11: and we were just like, I think we should just
- 38:21Speaker 11: go figure out what it looks like for us to
- 38:23Speaker 11: be adult performers for the world. And it was just
- 38:26Speaker 11: like reproving grounds as ill as like it was almost
- 38:28Speaker 11: like starting over, you know, because like everybody wanted to
- 38:31Speaker 11: treat us like kids or keep us in a category
- 38:33Speaker 11: or whatever, and we just had to like learn how
- 38:36Speaker 11: to prove ourselves. And for me, you know, SNL was
- 38:38Speaker 11: that the biggest bridge, you know, as far as like
- 38:41Speaker 11: adults taking me seriously as an adult, because we were
- 38:43Speaker 11: already grown, you know, we was in our twenties, you know,
- 38:45Speaker 11: so we didn't want to be like thirty years old
- 38:49Speaker 11: still trying to play a kid on Nickelodeon. And yeah,
- 38:52Speaker 11: the time end of that was just it was just crazy.
- 38:54Speaker 11: So it was a couple of years of like, man,
- 38:56Speaker 11: I don't know about this whole, like you know, one
- 38:59Speaker 11: job here, one job there, like every few months kind
- 39:01Speaker 11: of thing, because the bills come, you know what I mean,
- 39:03Speaker 11: every month, no matter what. Thank god, life goes in
- 39:06Speaker 11: a cycle. So when I was feeling down, I would
- 39:09Speaker 11: get a gig and that would like you know, start
- 39:11Speaker 11: trending upward, and then you know, trending further up from
- 39:13Speaker 11: a love on cars than the barber shop too, you
- 39:15Speaker 11: know what I mean. And then Barbershop too, left there
- 39:17Speaker 11: and like went to audition for AC and out, Like do.
- 39:20Speaker 4: You remember that when you auditioned and they called you
- 39:21Speaker 4: back and said you got the bar?
- 39:22Speaker 11: Do you remember that one? Because it was a long process,
- 39:25Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying, Like hanging to New York
- 39:27Speaker 11: straight from Chicago from shooting barber shop, like feeling great
- 39:30Speaker 11: or whatever, and then seeing what you up against and
- 39:33Speaker 11: it was every black comic you could even possibly think of. Right,
- 39:36Speaker 11: So I had to do stand up at the Stand
- 39:38Speaker 11: Up New York. I had never done stand up before.
- 39:40Speaker 11: It was a nightmare. And then I saw Call and
- 39:42Speaker 11: I hadn't seen him in a while, you know what
- 39:44Speaker 11: I'm saying, Like at the audition and that was awkward,
- 39:46Speaker 11: but it was like, you know, good luck, good luck
- 39:48Speaker 11: or whatever. And then I did three minutes of something
- 39:51Speaker 11: terrible because I wasn't a stand up comic. I didn't
- 39:53Speaker 11: know how to address the crowd at all. I think
- 39:55Speaker 11: I just started with that.
- 39:56Speaker 4: Was part of the audition. You had to do stand up.
- 39:58Speaker 2: Yeah, you walked up there was like Hi.
- 40:02Speaker 11: I think I just went right into like al shopping
- 40:04Speaker 11: or something. Like talking to on a sorts nager, you
- 40:07Speaker 11: know what I mean, like like a kid in his
- 40:09Speaker 11: own room, basically like playing in the mirror kind of thing.
- 40:13Speaker 11: And yeah, it didn't go well, but they saw something
- 40:16Speaker 11: and I got a call back and they were like,
- 40:17Speaker 11: all right, we want you to try one more time
- 40:19Speaker 11: at the Live Factory. I was like more stand up.
- 40:22Speaker 11: And it was a terrible night for me because the
- 40:26Speaker 11: other four people were actually stand up, you know what
- 40:29Speaker 11: I mean, And they were kept JB smooth for ness
- 40:31Speaker 11: Mitchell you know what I mean.
- 40:32Speaker 1: He Ray.
- 40:34Speaker 11: It was you know, it was a lineup and they
- 40:35Speaker 11: was destroying. And then I went up there and did
- 40:38Speaker 11: my little book and like what.
- 40:40Speaker 4: Were you were you first? Were you four?
- 40:42Speaker 1: For you? Second?
- 40:42Speaker 11: I was last?
- 40:44Speaker 1: You went after d Ray, JB and Mitchell, Yes, christ.
- 40:48Speaker 11: Yep and Kyle Groom and like Kyle, Yeah, I think Kyle,
- 40:52Speaker 11: but I know Kyle was in New York, but I
- 40:54Speaker 11: think he was in LA two. But I know I
- 40:56Speaker 11: went last after a bunch of brilliant comics. And I
- 40:59Speaker 11: was so nervous.
- 41:00Speaker 1: Man.
- 41:00Speaker 11: I was drinking out the Saint because that was the
- 41:02Speaker 11: bathroom and like the bar was over there, so I
- 41:04Speaker 11: didn't want to like go back and forth, you know
- 41:06Speaker 11: what I mean, like interrupt or anything like that.
- 41:08Speaker 1: You really really wanted to kill it, but you couldn't
- 41:10Speaker 1: get you know.
- 41:10Speaker 11: But I was so nervous, Like I was just like, man,
- 41:12Speaker 11: I can't quench my thumb, drinking water, drinking water, New
- 41:15Speaker 11: York water. Back then, I'm like filling it up with
- 41:17Speaker 11: the sink water and like still, and I was just
- 41:19Speaker 11: like crazy nervous.
- 41:20Speaker 4: But did you get booed?
- 41:21Speaker 11: I didn't get booed, So that was, you know, definitely
- 41:25Speaker 11: not a dagger, because if I would have got booed,
- 41:27Speaker 11: I don't even know if I would have wanted the job,
- 41:28Speaker 11: because would have felt like I didn't deserve it. But
- 41:30Speaker 11: then after that, they called the next day, and then
- 41:32Speaker 11: I think they called on a Saturday, and I was
- 41:34Speaker 11: in New York on Monday.
- 41:35Speaker 1: And now you're the longest running cast number.
- 41:37Speaker 4: All right, we got more with Keenan Thompson when we
- 41:39Speaker 4: come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 41:41Speaker 5: Good morning, everybody, It's DJ NV Charlamagne the guy. We
- 41:45Speaker 5: are the Breakfast Club. Were still kicking it with Keenan
- 41:47Speaker 5: Thompson his book When I was Your age Life lessons,
- 41:50Speaker 5: funny stories, and question of parenting advice from a professional
- 41:52Speaker 5: clown is out right now, Keenan ten charlomage.
- 41:55Speaker 1: You're going to go on after fifty.
- 41:57Speaker 2: I remember when I when I interviewed you on my
- 41:59Speaker 2: late night show, you said you think you should end it.
- 42:02Speaker 11: That I mean, I thought it would be a good
- 42:05Speaker 11: number to stop at it if that was the case,
- 42:06Speaker 11: But I don't think it is. I think they gonna
- 42:08Speaker 11: keep it running, you know what I'm saying, Like, it
- 42:10Speaker 11: doesn't make a difference. If it winds up stopping at
- 42:13Speaker 11: seventy two, it doesn't really matter. But fifty it just
- 42:16Speaker 11: felt like such a good package, just like you know,
- 42:18Speaker 11: here's fifty years.
- 42:19Speaker 20: Of S and L.
- 42:20Speaker 11: Time Warner, you know what I mean, Sell that at
- 42:22Speaker 11: around o'clock or whatever, DVDs, this, that and the other.
- 42:24Speaker 11: It's just a nice round number. Like if they get
- 42:27Speaker 11: to a hundred, great, if they get to two hundred,
- 42:29Speaker 11: you know what I mean, incredible. It doesn't really matter.
- 42:32Speaker 11: But I've never seen a TV show outside of like
- 42:35Speaker 11: a game show or a soap opera goal past thirty years,
- 42:40Speaker 11: you know, twenty, Like that's just crazy. So I didn't
- 42:43Speaker 11: really know how long it was gonna take it then
- 42:45Speaker 11: if dude was going to retire, you know after that year.
- 42:48Speaker 11: Lord Michael, Yeah, it might be you know, it might
- 42:51Speaker 11: be smart to pause it or something like that. But
- 42:54Speaker 11: at the same time, Tina can do it. I can
- 42:56Speaker 11: do it. Yeah, Steve Higgins, There's a lot of people
- 42:59Speaker 11: that can keep it going. It's just will it have
- 43:01Speaker 11: the same support, you know, like budget wise kind of thing,
- 43:05Speaker 11: Like if you slash the budget, it's a completely different show,
- 43:07Speaker 11: and then that's not fair to whoever's in that chair.
- 43:09Speaker 11: So it's up to them, you know what I'm saying.
- 43:11Speaker 11: But I from what I'm hearing, I think it's probably
- 43:12Speaker 11: gonna continue.
- 43:13Speaker 5: Did you ever feel like you didn't have support of
- 43:15Speaker 5: the culture of the community, you know, because starting off
- 43:18Speaker 5: as a new culture, any black comedian that's on Saturday
- 43:20Speaker 5: Night livedal we.
- 43:21Speaker 4: Say, oh he's the talking black or he's not that funny.
- 43:23Speaker 4: It's like the hate comes first. Did you ever feel it?
- 43:26Speaker 11: Yeah, And anytime I do something that's you know, pushing
- 43:29Speaker 11: boundaries or anything like that, there's a lot of pushback,
- 43:32Speaker 11: you know. So I definitely felt like the majority of
- 43:35Speaker 11: black people weren't like YO, Saturday Night Live, is my show,
- 43:39Speaker 11: you know what I mean. It just felt like, oh,
- 43:40Speaker 11: you on that white show, you know what I mean
- 43:42Speaker 11: when people talk to you about it. But you know,
- 43:44Speaker 11: I took that and was like, all right, well that's
- 43:47Speaker 11: how y'all feel. You must not really know, you know,
- 43:49Speaker 11: kind of the history of the show and who's really
- 43:51Speaker 11: come out of there, you know what I'm saying. And
- 43:52Speaker 11: it's just as much our show as anybody else's kind
- 43:55Speaker 11: of thing, because you know, we have the biggest start
- 43:58Speaker 11: probably in movie history, you Murphy coming out there.
- 44:01Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, Yeah, I've never heard people say that
- 44:03Speaker 2: there's token blacks on SNL.
- 44:05Speaker 1: It just was always there wasn't enough of enough black.
- 44:09Speaker 11: You know, one at a timing for a while, you know, because.
- 44:11Speaker 2: The black people they have are black. Yeah, Eddie didn't
- 44:14Speaker 2: try not to be black. Tracy Mugan didn't try not
- 44:16Speaker 2: to be black like they went for it.
- 44:18Speaker 11: I don't think Tracy can help himselfing, you know. But yeah,
- 44:22Speaker 11: that was part of the conversation that I was talking
- 44:25Speaker 11: about when it was time to get more black women
- 44:27Speaker 11: in the show. You know. It's just like my my
- 44:30Speaker 11: quote that was heavily misquoted or whatever.
- 44:34Speaker 2: It was just the fact that you know, the pool
- 44:36Speaker 2: to choose from isn't large. I don't even remember the quote.
- 44:38Speaker 11: The quote that they say I said was that, you know,
- 44:41Speaker 11: black women ain't funny, But that's not what I said.
- 44:42Speaker 1: It was like, that's better though, that's a good.
- 44:44Speaker 2: One about the person writing the story black women ain't
- 44:49Speaker 2: FUNDI said black women ain't funny.
- 44:52Speaker 11: You know. That's basically how they blasted me, like for
- 44:54Speaker 11: a while. You know, Leslie was mad, like before she
- 44:57Speaker 11: met me, she was like, let them come over here
- 44:59Speaker 11: and I'll burn it. First of all, I didn't say that,
- 45:03Speaker 11: and when we first met, you know, that was clarified
- 45:05Speaker 11: in two seconds because you know, when you and me,
- 45:08Speaker 11: you know, I'm not outside the culture like that. You
- 45:09Speaker 11: know what I'm saying. I don't disrespect my black women
- 45:11Speaker 11: at all, you know, like because like how would my
- 45:14Speaker 11: mother look at me, how would my sister look at me?
- 45:16Speaker 11: My cousins by this? That and my that I'm not
- 45:18Speaker 11: an idiot, you know what I'm saying. And I'm not
- 45:19Speaker 11: detached from the world either like that, you know what
- 45:22Speaker 11: I'm saying. So I would never say something so egregious.
- 45:25Speaker 11: But my point was, yeah, man, like this it's I'm
- 45:29Speaker 11: sure there's small, low numbers, you know, in those improv
- 45:32Speaker 11: houses wherever they might be. So if I'm wrong, let
- 45:35Speaker 11: me be wrong. But I don't think I am because
- 45:38Speaker 11: I've been in the business a long time and I
- 45:40Speaker 11: go to shows a lot, you know what I'm saying,
- 45:41Speaker 11: and I be looking, you know, and I look back
- 45:43Speaker 11: on history, like when you watch Chris Farley in his
- 45:45Speaker 11: Second City Days or whatever, and you look at the
- 45:47Speaker 11: background and his performance. It was tim medals. It wasn't
- 45:50Speaker 11: like it was tim medals and as Kevin and there's
- 45:52Speaker 11: Joe and there's this that, and then they are all
- 45:54Speaker 11: black and together and only Tim got the shot. It
- 45:57Speaker 11: was just tim medals there. You know what I'm saying,
- 45:59Speaker 11: That was it. You know, you got to look towards
- 46:01Speaker 11: the positive, and the positive is it did open the
- 46:03Speaker 11: doors for some people, you know, even if it was
- 46:05Speaker 11: you know, me having to be the scapegold or whatever.
- 46:08Speaker 2: So I can't be mad at it. How much longer
- 46:11Speaker 2: than I can be, But this point, God got a plan.
- 46:14Speaker 2: How much longer does Keenan want to do F n L.
- 46:16Speaker 11: I mean, I don't know. That question continues to vary,
- 46:19Speaker 11: you know, like it all kind of starts depending on
- 46:22Speaker 11: like what the kids want to do and where the
- 46:25Speaker 11: kids want to be, Like how much more time can
- 46:27Speaker 11: I spend with them if possible? And also like are
- 46:30Speaker 11: people getting tired of my moves? You know what I'm saying,
- 46:33Speaker 11: Like are people getting tired of seeing me on the
- 46:35Speaker 11: show all the time? And stuff like that. So it
- 46:37Speaker 11: also is a long schedule and takes up most of
- 46:40Speaker 11: the year kind of things, So you know, it might
- 46:42Speaker 11: be time for like to make room for other opportunities
- 46:45Speaker 11: at the same time, but I want to see that
- 46:47Speaker 11: fiftieth at least.
- 46:48Speaker 4: You know, when you watch things that happen, do you
- 46:51Speaker 4: have an opinion or as in, do you care? Or
- 46:53Speaker 4: is it? The first thing is sketch? Right, So Shannon
- 46:55Speaker 4: sharp Catwilliams right, he's going crazy. Are you thinking, oh,
- 46:59Speaker 4: this is a sketch. This I'm gonna break it down?
- 47:01Speaker 4: Or are you thinking, damn, why's he going?
- 47:03Speaker 11: There?
- 47:03Speaker 4: So many people?
- 47:04Speaker 11: Well, some things are obviously going to be a sketch,
- 47:07Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying, Like as soon as I
- 47:08Speaker 11: saw it, I'm like, oh, yeah, like this is definitely
- 47:10Speaker 11: going to be a sketch, only because like Cat Williams
- 47:13Speaker 11: is a good impression, you know what I mean, Shannon
- 47:14Speaker 11: Sharp is a good impression, and this is definitely a
- 47:17Speaker 11: moment that everybody has seen, right, so it's gonna be like,
- 47:22Speaker 11: you know, whoever's first to get the sketch up basically
- 47:25Speaker 11: at that point. There's a lot of nighttime shows that
- 47:28Speaker 11: could have done it, you know what I mean, or whatever,
- 47:30Speaker 11: But when we do it, it's on a different level
- 47:33Speaker 11: because like our departments are crazy, like our whig department
- 47:36Speaker 11: at Wardrobe, you know what I mean, our sets, like
- 47:39Speaker 11: the audio whole team, you know what I mean. Yeah,
- 47:42Speaker 11: like the whole team is like on super duper point
- 47:45Speaker 11: because they've been doing it for forever and they take
- 47:47Speaker 11: it here as they love it, you know what I mean.
- 47:48Speaker 11: It's a family, like a generational kind of family that
- 47:51Speaker 11: worked there. So yeah, when I saw that, I was like,
- 47:54Speaker 11: we're doing this for sure. I wish we weren't on
- 47:56Speaker 11: break and everybody was texting like I know y'all about
- 47:58Speaker 11: to do this this weekend. I'm like, man, we off
- 48:00Speaker 11: for another week and a half, bro, And everyone like,
- 48:02Speaker 11: oh my god, we gotta wait. But shout out the
- 48:05Speaker 11: eggo man, you know what I mean? She was get
- 48:07Speaker 11: in like, yeah, they destroyed it, and I was eating
- 48:11Speaker 11: it up because I was it was entertaining, Like the
- 48:12Speaker 11: first time I watched it, I was like, oh, snap,
- 48:15Speaker 11: you know he said, spilling everything, you know, and I
- 48:19Speaker 11: was enjoying it that way. And then of course elders
- 48:21Speaker 11: started chiming in, and like when Dave chimed in, like
- 48:23Speaker 11: why you're painting us with such a you know, why
- 48:26Speaker 11: you're painting dirty, ugly pictures of us or whatever, It's like,
- 48:28Speaker 11: all right, I gotta calm down, you know what I'm saying,
- 48:31Speaker 11: Like take that into mind, the fact that the bigger
- 48:34Speaker 11: pictures we are supposed to be pushing uphill together kind
- 48:37Speaker 11: of thing. And it was like, all right, well maybe
- 48:40Speaker 11: we shouldn't be lashing out or throwing each other under
- 48:43Speaker 11: the bus or whatever. But at first I was like, oh,
- 48:46Speaker 11: I love this.
- 48:47Speaker 2: You know, as a comedian, is that something you would
- 48:49Speaker 2: want to get mentioned in? Would you want to say
- 48:51Speaker 2: your name?
- 48:52Speaker 6: Nah?
- 48:52Speaker 11: I don't want to be in. I don't want to
- 48:55Speaker 11: be and nobody driving at all, you know what I'm saying,
- 48:58Speaker 11: Especially like you know, the top that they were discussing,
- 49:01Speaker 11: I'm like, I could be on the wrong side of
- 49:02Speaker 11: this at any given moment if they want to mentioned me.
- 49:04Speaker 11: But my perspective on that, in my mind doesn't have
- 49:07Speaker 11: me on the wrong side of it.
- 49:08Speaker 1: But people have their opinion. You might be a plant
- 49:11Speaker 1: to somebody.
- 49:11Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, how you go from good Burger toes and
- 49:14Speaker 2: L and be there for twenty years?
- 49:16Speaker 11: You know, Like that's that's his opinion on that, And
- 49:18Speaker 11: it's dismissive unfortunately of you know, like Kevin's been showing
- 49:22Speaker 11: up to work all this time, you know what I'm saying.
- 49:24Speaker 11: It's not like even if he was like planning and
- 49:26Speaker 11: being like, all right, here's a movie for you, he
- 49:27Speaker 11: had to still do that movie. He had to show
- 49:29Speaker 11: up to this, you know what I mean, and like.
- 49:31Speaker 1: Don't just diet it. Even if he was planning like
- 49:34Speaker 1: he was planning, if he.
- 49:36Speaker 11: Was just given an opportunity that does come as easy
- 49:39Speaker 11: to others say it like that, you know what I'm saying.
- 49:41Speaker 11: He still had to take it and run with it,
- 49:43Speaker 11: you know what I mean, and do all the stand
- 49:45Speaker 11: up and do all the other TV shows, movies and this,
- 49:47Speaker 11: that and the other, and like continue his track of professionalists.
- 49:50Speaker 11: So like industry plants unfortunately dismisses the work ethic of
- 49:55Speaker 11: an individual.
- 49:55Speaker 2: I you know what I'm saying, And I want to
- 49:57Speaker 2: shout out to two black men who first put Kevin
- 49:58Speaker 2: in movies, Damon that Ash and Russ Park. Two black
- 50:01Speaker 2: men put Kevin in his first project, is that So Playing?
- 50:04Speaker 1: Before So Playing, it was.
- 50:07Speaker 2: So and sty and Russ Park put him in something too,
- 50:10Speaker 2: but I can'tnot even know the name of it.
- 50:11Speaker 1: But they were the first two people to put.
- 50:13Speaker 11: Him out the damn shout out to Rust That's right, yeah, man,
- 50:15Speaker 11: like anybody that's giving you a leg up in this business,
- 50:19Speaker 11: like shout them out the whole time.
- 50:21Speaker 4: You know all we got more with Keenan Thompson when
- 50:24Speaker 4: we come back. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 50:25Speaker 5: Good morning, everybody, c n B Charlamagne God we are
- 50:29Speaker 5: the Breakfast Club is still kicking it with Keenan Thompson.
- 50:32Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 50:33Speaker 5: Do you make a phone call when you're about to
- 50:34Speaker 5: do a skit or do something about somebody, you know,
- 50:37Speaker 5: something happened to somebody that you ef.
- 50:39Speaker 3: You should you don't. I just take it like you
- 50:44Speaker 3: got those calls before, like bro oh.
- 50:45Speaker 11: Yeah, Steve Harvey didn't love it, you know it at first?
- 50:52Speaker 11: You just ain't watch yourself you know, because watch you know,
- 50:57Speaker 11: he's a grown man from the streets of Cleveland.
- 51:00Speaker 1: Whatever it is.
- 51:00Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying. He is just a big guy,
- 51:03Speaker 11: you know, and like he comes from like the knuckle
- 51:06Speaker 11: up generation where you had to and get it in
- 51:09Speaker 11: the cold, working at factories or whatever. He did, you know.
- 51:13Speaker 11: But yeah, at first he was like, hey, little rerun
- 51:16Speaker 11: watch yourself.
- 51:17Speaker 1: All right, you know, so he called you.
- 51:20Speaker 4: You ran into it.
- 51:21Speaker 11: I would he would say it on his show, He
- 51:23Speaker 11: would say it on the radio and stuff like that.
- 51:25Speaker 11: So I would like eventually like call in and be like,
- 51:28Speaker 11: hey man, you good. Once we did like an interview
- 51:30Speaker 11: or something like that, But whenever I would speak to him,
- 51:32Speaker 11: it was always love, you know what I'm saying. But
- 51:35Speaker 11: I just think, you know, he had to like make
- 51:36Speaker 11: his stamps kind of known for his audience play with
- 51:40Speaker 11: blah blah blah. But you know, Steve's also been another
- 51:43Speaker 11: mentor because we were on his show back in the day.
- 51:46Speaker 11: He gave me a lot of game basically about just
- 51:49Speaker 11: growing up and not treating the business so young just
- 51:52Speaker 11: because you young. You know, there's a lot of like
- 51:55Speaker 11: adults out here that's working really hard, that's got like
- 51:57Speaker 11: real problems when they go home, or like, you know,
- 52:00Speaker 11: life is serious enough so you can't just be playing
- 52:02Speaker 11: all the time.
- 52:03Speaker 8: Right.
- 52:03Speaker 2: Basically, how's fatherhood change? Because you've got a change to
- 52:06Speaker 2: call everything I need to know about life. I learned
- 52:07Speaker 2: from my girls. I got four girls, you got two. Yeah,
- 52:11Speaker 2: how does father change?
- 52:13Speaker 11: I mean it really like showed me life outside of
- 52:17Speaker 11: my own personal perspective as far as how I approach
- 52:19Speaker 11: the day, you know what I mean, and living for
- 52:22Speaker 11: others kind of thing, which was like very different. You know,
- 52:25Speaker 11: like when you're in a relationship, it's different, like you're
- 52:27Speaker 11: still both grown individuals, so you expect the other individuals
- 52:30Speaker 11: to like be able to take care of you know,
- 52:32Speaker 11: certain basics or whatever because they grow. But with a child,
- 52:35Speaker 11: it's like, no, they need you for everything, you know
- 52:37Speaker 11: what I'm saying. In their first few years or the
- 52:40Speaker 11: first decade, or you know, even for the rest of
- 52:42Speaker 11: their life whatever it is. They need you in such
- 52:45Speaker 11: a way that it's like it never turns off. And
- 52:47Speaker 11: I had never really experienced that, you know what I mean,
- 52:49Speaker 11: where it's like you have to be aware of and
- 52:52Speaker 11: know what's going on with your kids, Like on a
- 52:54Speaker 11: twenty four hour basis, you know, three sixty five. It's
- 52:56Speaker 11: not like you could take a week off just because
- 52:58Speaker 11: it's Christmas.
- 53:00Speaker 1: And what did you learn? What have you learned from
- 53:01Speaker 1: your girls patients?
- 53:03Speaker 11: Definitely a lot of patients emotion like being able to
- 53:06Speaker 11: like just embrace having emotional moments, you know what I mean,
- 53:10Speaker 11: Because when we were growing up, it was either suck
- 53:12Speaker 11: it up, take a lap, do this, or any other
- 53:14Speaker 11: kind of thing, and never really like sit in what's
- 53:16Speaker 11: really bothering you kind of thing, shake it off, you
- 53:19Speaker 11: know what I mean. Like we had all those kind
- 53:20Speaker 11: of like sayings from coaches and things like that, or
- 53:23Speaker 11: you know, just growing up as a man, you know,
- 53:25Speaker 11: like you know, be a man, suck it up kind
- 53:26Speaker 11: of thing, and you would hear that. But they taught
- 53:28Speaker 11: me like it's okay to you know, feel these feelings
- 53:30Speaker 11: kind of thing and like understand what may be causing
- 53:33Speaker 11: them and kind of work through it. But also like
- 53:35Speaker 11: the perspective of a child, because we go around like
- 53:38Speaker 11: you know, kind of looking and not really seeing the world,
- 53:41Speaker 11: maybe just because we're seeing it at our height, you
- 53:44Speaker 11: know what I mean. When you're smaller, you know, you
- 53:46Speaker 11: see probably a bigger picture and stuff like that kind
- 53:49Speaker 11: of stopping smell of roses kind of kind of vibe. Basically,
- 53:53Speaker 11: who's your biggest critic? Myself? Yep, because I'm I'm the
- 53:57Speaker 11: one that sees it all. You know what I'm saying,
- 53:59Speaker 11: Like some people watch things and they just enjoyed surface level,
- 54:01Speaker 11: but I'm watching, like all snap my shoes and tied,
- 54:04Speaker 11: or you know, like my hair and I need a haircut.
- 54:07Speaker 2: You still got a hairline, you know what I'm saying.
- 54:09Speaker 2: That's all the black men can ask. You got a headline?
- 54:13Speaker 1: God, bless you, God bless Oh my god.
- 54:16Speaker 2: You and kel just reconnected too, but well not just
- 54:18Speaker 2: reconnect what y'all did a good burger too?
- 54:19Speaker 11: Yeah, man, shout out to my brother Man.
- 54:22Speaker 2: Now, I don't know if to say how did y'all
- 54:24Speaker 2: get back on good turns? Because I don't know if
- 54:25Speaker 2: y'all was ever on bad turns?
- 54:27Speaker 11: No, I don't think, I mean, but at the same time,
- 54:30Speaker 11: you know, hearsay and stuff like that can push it
- 54:34Speaker 11: in that direction if you don't get like the real
- 54:37Speaker 11: answer from the individual. And since there was a period
- 54:40Speaker 11: where we weren't really in that much communication, if you know,
- 54:42Speaker 11: there were probably innglands of that kind of energy or whatever.
- 54:45Speaker 11: But once we actually did speak on the phone because
- 54:48Speaker 11: we were doing a good Burger sketch on the Tonight
- 54:52Speaker 11: Show or whatever, you know, and we hadn't spoken in years,
- 54:55Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying, and we knew we had
- 54:56Speaker 11: to like at least talk before we go perform to
- 54:59Speaker 11: each other. It was a two second reconciliation, you know
- 55:02Speaker 11: what I mean. It was like time had never gone by. Basically,
- 55:06Speaker 11: it felt like such a blessing to me and I
- 55:08Speaker 11: feel like to him as well, you know, to have
- 55:10Speaker 11: each other back and eat each other's lives, you know
- 55:12Speaker 11: what I mean, because we do work so well together,
- 55:14Speaker 11: and we had established, you know what I mean, something
- 55:17Speaker 11: so beloved that it would be a crime to kind
- 55:19Speaker 11: of just let it go into the wind just because
- 55:21Speaker 11: you know, we wanted, you know, individual career identities kind
- 55:26Speaker 11: of thing. You know, we didn't always want to be
- 55:29Speaker 11: just Keenan and kel. Like my name is Keenan Thompson
- 55:31Speaker 11: and his name is cal Mitchell, you know what I'm saying,
- 55:33Speaker 11: And like not a lot of people were willing to
- 55:35Speaker 11: recognize that at the time. So that's kind of like
- 55:37Speaker 11: where that drift apart started happening, and then you know,
- 55:41Speaker 11: as life does, you know, like different experiences are happening,
- 55:44Speaker 11: so it just takes you. And then the next thing,
- 55:47Speaker 11: you look up and we haven't spoken in seven years
- 55:49Speaker 11: or something crazy like that or ten or whatever. It
- 55:52Speaker 11: was so for us to reconcile and do the Good
- 55:54Speaker 11: Burger sketch that was six seven years ago something like that.
- 55:57Speaker 11: That was really really nice, and then that.
- 56:00Speaker 1: Was sparked a Good Burger too.
- 56:01Speaker 11: That's kind of sparked like, yo, I think we need
- 56:03Speaker 11: to do this, and they were gonna do a cartoon,
- 56:05Speaker 11: and it was like, I think you should do the
- 56:07Speaker 11: movie first and then do the cartoon. Like everybody's been
- 56:10Speaker 11: kind of asking for a sequel since the first one
- 56:12Speaker 11: kind of thing. It's like, if you're going to get
- 56:14Speaker 11: back into that world, you might as well do the second,
- 56:16Speaker 11: especially if we hear you know what I'm saying, and
- 56:17Speaker 11: we're young enough to like still do it with a
- 56:20Speaker 11: passion and this, that and the other and try to
- 56:21Speaker 11: make a good movie. So you know, luckily we were
- 56:23Speaker 11: able to like put it together and like get it
- 56:25Speaker 11: Green Lid shot it in Rhode Island, like thanks to
- 56:28Speaker 11: artists for artists, and like my business partner, you know,
- 56:31Speaker 11: Johnny Ryan, who's from there, and like.
- 56:33Speaker 1: That's your production company.
- 56:34Speaker 11: Yeah, got a bunch of like you know whatever tax
- 56:38Speaker 11: credits to make the budget make sense. And it was
- 56:41Speaker 11: good for me because it was right up the street,
- 56:43Speaker 11: you know what I mean, and my girls were in
- 56:44Speaker 11: school till late June or something like that, so they
- 56:47Speaker 11: were able to take the train up on the weekend,
- 56:49Speaker 11: you know what I mean, as opposed to like having
- 56:51Speaker 11: to shoot it in the middle of nowhere or something
- 56:53Speaker 11: like that. So it all became, you know, a good
- 56:56Speaker 11: positive thing. And then we actually made something that people enjoyed,
- 56:59Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying. And then it broke records.
- 57:01Speaker 2: You know, they u this Paramounts plus his most watched
- 57:03Speaker 2: original film ever.
- 57:05Speaker 11: Ever several weeks in number one, this, that, and the other.
- 57:08Speaker 11: So like it was all very positive and it was
- 57:11Speaker 11: positive for our company because it was like we making
- 57:13Speaker 11: history too. Took the first Paramount movie, the Rhode Island
- 57:15Speaker 11: kind of thing, you know what I mean, So it
- 57:17Speaker 11: was just like all, you know, all around really good
- 57:20Speaker 11: and then also setting up as the you know, the
- 57:24Speaker 11: Kenan and Killed world continues to grow. Now you know
- 57:26Speaker 11: what I'm saying, because we know we can go work
- 57:29Speaker 11: on this project. You know, if he got a project,
- 57:31Speaker 11: he can go do it. If I got a project,
- 57:33Speaker 11: I can go do it. But if we come together
- 57:35Speaker 11: and do something, we know it's going to be like
- 57:37Speaker 11: pretty dynamic. So that that's a beautiful thing, you know,
- 57:40Speaker 11: because we laid a lot of track work early as
- 57:43Speaker 11: opposed to like having to figure it out middle age.
- 57:46Speaker 1: The cartoon's happening, I don't know.
- 57:49Speaker 11: I think there's an opportunity to do even the third
- 57:51Speaker 11: one before we do the cartoon, you know what I'm saying.
- 57:54Speaker 11: Just because the second one did so well, you can
- 57:56Speaker 11: continue that world and keep on keep on getting it,
- 58:00Speaker 11: you know, absolutely.
- 58:01Speaker 4: All right, Well, we appreciate you brother and Thompson Man.

- 1:00:25Speaker 2: It's only got a record out. They need to put
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: a record out of them. Yeah, It's like anytime I
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: see people doing stuff like that around projects, it feels
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: like they're just trying to promote that project. So if
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: it's a real apology, you send it directly to that person.

- 1:00:57Speaker 5: mister me. The duy charges have been dropped after she
- 1:01:00Speaker 5: appeared in the Los Angeles court yesterday, she accepted a
- 1:01:02Speaker 5: plea deal of reckless driving.
- 1:01:04Speaker 4: In California, she.
- 1:01:06Speaker 5: Agreed to a simple vehicle cod violation and not driving
- 1:01:09Speaker 5: under the influence.
- 1:01:10Speaker 4: That charge was dismissed.
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: That's good drunk driving his wack, you know, so, I'm
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: sure Tiffany will learned from this now.
- 1:01:17Speaker 5: Danny Lay was arrested for DUI hitting run in Miami.
- 1:01:19Speaker 5: She was reportedly seen speeding and swerving. Police found an
- 1:01:23Speaker 5: empty bottle of vodka. She's reportedly been sentenced to five
- 1:01:26Speaker 5: years of probation. Her victim also filed a civil lawsuit
- 1:01:29Speaker 5: against her, but the status of that suit is still pending.
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: Damn drunk driving is I'm sure Danny Lay will learn
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: from that too, and if not, somebody will yep.
- 1:01:36Speaker 5: And lastly, people showed a lot of concern for NBA
- 1:01:40Speaker 5: young boy. He posted a picture yesterday. He was laying
- 1:01:43Speaker 5: on the floor. He had looks like a cup of
- 1:01:46Speaker 5: suser or a styrofoam cup filled with ice, and he
- 1:01:48Speaker 5: had a bunch of pills laying on the floor. People
- 1:01:51Speaker 5: were very concerned and hoping that he wasn't, you know,
- 1:01:54Speaker 5: using drugs or he had substance abuse problems, and was
- 1:01:57Speaker 5: hoping if he did have a problem.
- 1:01:58Speaker 4: He was going to rehab to fix that. Prim did
- 1:02:00Speaker 4: you see the picture?
- 1:02:01Speaker 2: I did see the picture, and I'm starting to realize
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: how slow people are. Clearly somebody took that picture. Clearly
- 1:02:07Speaker 2: he didn't. It wasn't a selfie, I mean, but clearly
- 1:02:10Speaker 2: he allowed somebody to take the picture and had a
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: caption and everything.
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: What was the caption caption?
- 1:02:15Speaker 4: Woo had.
- 1:02:21Speaker 11: Oh?
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: He said, That's why I don't pick up the phone,
- 1:02:23Speaker 2: win a ring. He's clearly promoting something, y'all. Come on, man,
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: clearly it's a video. He's doing something he didn't just
- 1:02:30Speaker 2: that's not like it's not like somebody a snuck and
- 1:02:33Speaker 2: took a picture of him, or snuck and took a
- 1:02:35Speaker 2: video of him in that position.
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: That is clearly curated. Y'all, come on home, man, what
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: are we doing?
- 1:02:41Speaker 4: I'm just telling you what what what you want me
- 1:02:43Speaker 4: to do it? Look, this is my last day, that's right, Jeff,
- 1:02:45Speaker 4: with the matter. Monday is my last day with job.

- 1:03:10Speaker 1: I know what it was, but I'm just.
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: Saying when people I saw people saying that yesterday, always
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: showing concern, I'm thinking that you know, somebody caught him
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: in a compromising notion or a snug video or something.
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: He took that picture. I had somebody take it posted
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: it with a nice caption. He's good promoting something. Come

- 1:04:14Speaker 2: Man, Man, for after the hour, we need a man
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: from Virginia named Buzzing Bear.
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: I think that that's how you pronounced.
- 1:04:22Speaker 4: It definitely sound right.
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: This man man have dealt.
- 1:04:25Speaker 2: With something that all of us deal with on a
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: daily basis, while a lot of us deal with on
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: a daily basis. But the way he reacted to it
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: got him donkey today. We'll discuss all.
- 1:04:34Speaker 4: Right, we'll get to that nextus to break What music
- 1:04:35Speaker 4: are you playing?
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: What music was that? I have no idea? What was that?
- 1:04:39Speaker 11: What is that?
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: What's going on? It's who oh?
- 1:04:43Speaker 4: Jay Carter?
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: Who is Jake Carter?
- 1:04:47Speaker 4: A young artist?
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: All right?
- 1:04:50Speaker 4: Donkey's next to the.
- 1:04:51Speaker 12: Breakfast cloak about the breakfast club. Your mornings will never
- 1:04:55Speaker 12: be the same.
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey said the
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: day as Shua May.
- 1:05:04Speaker 7: I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the day is
- 1:05:06Speaker 7: a little bit of a mixed que So.
- 1:05:08Speaker 4: Like a Donkey.
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: Of the day, practice club, bitch you Now.
- 1:05:15Speaker 21: I've been called a lot of my twenty three years.
- 1:05:17Speaker 19: That Donkey of the day is a new.
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: White Yes, Donkey of to Day.
- 1:05:20Speaker 2: For Friday, February, second, second day of Black History Month,
- 1:05:23Speaker 2: goes to a former Wait the music at Eddie can't okay?
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: Now we're talking.
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: Goes to a former target worker from Virginia named bazen Bear,
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: I think that's his name, who has been sentenced to
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: a whole century in prison, one hundred years.
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: I have no idea.
- 1:05:38Speaker 2: Why judges be playing with people like that, Like, what
- 1:05:40Speaker 2: is the point? Just sentence me to forever? Okay, just
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: sentence me to for all of eternity. Matter of fact,
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: just let me ask the judge a question, Judge, am
- 1:05:48Speaker 2: I ever getting out?
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: And the judge can simply say no, period.
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: Okay, anything sounds better than one hundred years. My brain
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: can't even process that. But judge gives you one hundred years,
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: you should automatically be granted permission to run and swan
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: dive over the desk at that judge.
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: Okay, that's when you're supposed to make those kinds of leaps.
- 1:06:06Speaker 2: But once again, as I tell y'all every other day,
- 1:06:08Speaker 2: life is about choices.
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: Destiny is not a matter of chance. It's a matter
- 1:06:11Speaker 2: of a choice. And bozen Burr made a very poor choice. Now,
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: today's donkey of the Day is a teachable moment because
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: so many people have been faced with the challenge that
- 1:06:20Speaker 2: Bizin was faced with. So many people every day who
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: listened to the breakfast club have had to deal with
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: what Bizin has had to deal with.
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: Okay, but I bet you handled it better than he did.
- 1:06:30Speaker 2: What are you talking about, uncle Chaoh well, let's go
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: to A seven's ABC seven News, ABC seven News on
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: your Side for the report.
- 1:06:36Speaker 22: Please knew it for a judge's sentence seeing an Alexandria
- 1:06:39Speaker 22: man to one hundred years in prison after he killed
- 1:06:42Speaker 22: his coworker in a target parking lot in Bailey's Crossroads.
- 1:06:46Speaker 22: Back in twenty twenty one, twenty five year old bos
- 1:06:49Speaker 22: And Barry killed Hernan Levia. During the trial, prosecutors argue
- 1:06:53Speaker 22: that Barry planned the murder after his coworker took his
- 1:06:57Speaker 22: lunch from the office fridge. Days later, Barry attacked the
- 1:07:01Speaker 22: victim and stabbed him several times after their work shift.
- 1:07:04Speaker 22: Barry plead guilty to first degree murder in October.
- 1:07:08Speaker 2: Lunch, bro, you killed someone because they stole your lunch
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: out of the fridge at work, because they stole your
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: food out of the refrigerator. I understand sometime life is
- 1:07:20Speaker 2: about principle, Okay, I get it. He thought you were soft.
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: You had to show him otherwise. But now what you
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: killed someone over lunch? Only to go to prison and
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: end up being someone snack. And you're gonna be somebody snack, okay,
- 1:07:32Speaker 2: the same way the man you killed, Eh your lunch,
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: trust and believe someone is gonna eat your ass the
- 1:07:36Speaker 2: exact same way, and you're gonna return to favor because
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: what else do you have to do over the next
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: one hundred years? And he's only twenty five, little young tender, Okay,
- 1:07:45Speaker 2: I'm telling you. People are sick out here, all right.
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: Folks need psychiatric help. So many people that are walking
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: amongst us need to be under somebody's care. They need
- 1:07:53Speaker 2: to be medicated. I don't know what this man was
- 1:07:55Speaker 2: dealing with. I don't know what he was going through
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: or whatever it was. This situation puts them more over
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: the edge.
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: You don't just go zero to sixty over a sandwich,
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: all right. This must have been a meal his grandmother
- 1:08:06Speaker 2: or mother cook, and he bought the leftovers with him
- 1:08:09Speaker 2: to work. This had to be some sort of comfort
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: food like this food had to have some sentimental value, okay.
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: He had to be something that this man was looking
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: forward to. And you had the audacity to steal it,
- 1:08:20Speaker 2: eat it and then just come back to work like
- 1:08:22Speaker 2: it's all good called the man to snap. Okay, I
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: can't believe I have to say this, but I don't
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: care how discruntled you are. There is not a chicken
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: salad anywhere on this planet that's good enough to take
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: somebody's life and get a century in prison. I don't
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: even know if he was eating chicken salad, but wouldn't
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: it be ironic if he did all of this for
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: a toss salad only to end up in prison tossing
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: salads for the next one hundred years. Listen to me, though, Man,
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: it's a lot of things that's interesting to me about
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: this story, but one that stands out is he thought
- 1:08:51Speaker 2: about this when you read the report, He thought about this.
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: It's a premeditated murder. He didn't look in the fridge
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: and see his lunch was stolen. He went home and said, well,
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: he didn't just look in the fridge and see his
- 1:09:03Speaker 2: lunch was stolen, and then you know, confront the man
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: right there. He went home and said he spent the
- 1:09:08Speaker 2: next few days plotting his revenge.
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: Think about that.
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: He went home for three days and plotted his revenge.
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: And this is why I thinks like meditation is so important,
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: breathing exercises, having someone to talk to you mean to
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: tell me. Over the course of three days, he couldn't
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: let go of the fact that his tuna.
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: Sandwich got stolen.
- 1:09:28Speaker 2: His homemade pizza peanut butter jelly sandwich got took and
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: he couldn't shake that off. This man had severe anger
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: issues that he never got the help for, and that
- 1:09:37Speaker 2: is the moral of the story. Anger resembles fire, and
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: like the fire, if you keep feeding it, it will
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: get stronger and harm you. If you stop feeding anger
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: with your attention, it will fade away.
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: Three days, this man held this for three days. Not
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: one of those days did he have lunch.
- 1:09:56Speaker 2: One lunch after the lunch that got stolen him that
- 1:10:00Speaker 2: lunch goes on.
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: He was moving like he only had one lunch to live.
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: And that's not how lunch works.
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: Listen, we must be willing to let go of the
- 1:10:10Speaker 2: lunch we planned so as to have the lunch that
- 1:10:13Speaker 2: is waiting for.
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: Us, not you basing, no, no, no.
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: The lunch that is waiting for you right now is
- 1:10:19Speaker 2: two mixed grain sandwiches, one roast beef relish and salad
- 1:10:23Speaker 2: our tomato mayo and salad. One egg mayonnaise in salad,
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: and one serving a fresh fruit. That's what's waiting for
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: you for the next hundred years. Dinner gonna go crazy, though,
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: One maybe two blue vein sausages. Okay, that beef whistle
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: you gotta blow on because it may be too hot. Okay,
- 1:10:46Speaker 2: you don't even want to see that custard launcher for dessert. Okay,
- 1:10:50Speaker 2: please give Bazen Bear the biggest he hull.
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: Crazy world are we living in, y'all? I gotta hear
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: both sides. You mean you got to hit both sides?
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: What's the other side?
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: There's never a reason you need to kill a man
- 1:11:12Speaker 2: over getting your lunch stolen at work, and then you're
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: doing one hundred years.
- 1:11:15Speaker 1: What's the other side.
- 1:11:16Speaker 4: Let's take it out of the situation for a second.
- 1:11:17Speaker 5: Right, we got sixty seconds, right, Let's just take it
- 1:11:19Speaker 5: out of this this side for a second.
- 1:11:20Speaker 4: Let's say what side let's side to make no sense.
- 1:11:23Speaker 4: Let's take it away from this situation.
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:11:25Speaker 4: Let's say my name is.
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: Rashaan, Right, your name is Rashawan, you stupid idiot.
- 1:11:31Speaker 5: I'm five foot four. Let's say I'm small of being paid,
- 1:11:34Speaker 5: being picked on my whole life I go to work,
- 1:11:38Speaker 5: I get a sandwich that my mama maybe my only
- 1:11:41Speaker 5: sandwich because maybe I can't afford it.
- 1:11:43Speaker 4: Right, So this is my sound.
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: You're trying to justify this man, justify anything to.
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: You know you need to do.
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: Put a meat popsticle in your mouth right now and
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: shut up. There's no way you're going justine. I'm not justifying,
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: but I'm just saying he's been bullied.
- 1:11:58Speaker 5: Right now. This guy takes sandwich. This guy, I'm not saying.
- 1:12:02Speaker 5: This is the situation. This guy picks on Rashawn takes

- 1:12:18Speaker 1: About over there? Huh? Jesus christ Man, shut up.

- 1:12:36Speaker 1: Back of something. You want to put my tonsil tickle back.
- 1:12:41Speaker 4: He just mess myself a bunch of these.
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: He's just ready to fire off.

- 1:12:52Speaker 4: All right, when we come back back, say something. I
- 1:12:55Speaker 4: know you got one way, I know you got one weight.
- 1:12:57Speaker 4: When we come back, Doctor Joseph Poom will be joining
- 1:13:00Speaker 4: us all right now. He is the founder and president
- 1:13:02Speaker 4: of Soeign Medical.
- 1:13:04Speaker 5: Now this month is Heart Awareness month, and we're gonna
- 1:13:07Speaker 5: be talking him about things with what we should be
- 1:13:09Speaker 5: doing to make sure our heart is running the right way,
- 1:13:12Speaker 5: our heart is running safe and that we can live
- 1:13:14Speaker 5: a lot longer.
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: See that's what anxiety does, do you right, It plays
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: tricks on you. So you know the end of last year,
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: what's no nothing, the last year, the end of the
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: year before that was the year before that, twenty twenty two.
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, doctor Puma does.
- 1:13:25Speaker 4: Yes, and we're gonna talk to him when we come back.
- 1:13:27Speaker 11: All right.
- 1:13:27Speaker 4: This to Breakfast Level.
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: Morning, the Breakfast Club.
- 1:13:33Speaker 4: Morning.
- 1:13:33Speaker 5: Everybody is DJ Envy Charlamagne the guy. We are the
- 1:13:36Speaker 5: Breakfast Club. We got a special guest.
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: In the building, Doctor Joseph Pumer is hell Doctor Puma.
- 1:13:41Speaker 9: Welcome, Thank you for inviting me.
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: Now, you know, doctor Puma's been here before.
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: Yes, you know, but it's very important to know that
- 1:13:47Speaker 2: February is American Heart Month, correct, yes, as well as
- 1:13:50Speaker 2: Black History Month.
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: Of course that's right. But that's why we have him
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: here today to talk about all things heart health.
- 1:13:55Speaker 5: Now, for people that don't know or didn't hear when
- 1:13:57Speaker 5: you were here previously, tell people.
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: What you do.
- 1:14:00Speaker 20: I'm a cardiologist. I'm the founder of Soren Medical, which
- 1:14:04Speaker 20: is the largest independent cardiology practice in New York City.
- 1:14:09Speaker 20: My goals are to democratize healthcare objectively. We won an
- 1:14:13Speaker 20: award four quarters in a row for the number one
- 1:14:16Speaker 20: heart scan in America, the highest quality imaging.
- 1:14:19Speaker 9: We're insurance based.
- 1:14:21Speaker 20: We take care of everybody that comes through our doors,
- 1:14:24Speaker 20: whether they're a billionaire or they're undomiciled. Our goal is
- 1:14:29Speaker 20: to be part of the communities that we work in
- 1:14:32Speaker 20: and to try and educate and help people live a long.
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: Could you tell people what the sore and heart scan
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: is at the boom.
- 1:14:38Speaker 20: So when we image the heart, we're basically using a camera.
- 1:14:42Speaker 11: Right.
- 1:14:42Speaker 20: The sore and heart scan uses the fastest camera available
- 1:14:45Speaker 20: in the world. It's a cat scan. It's the only
- 1:14:48Speaker 20: one of its kind in New York City dedicated to
- 1:14:51Speaker 20: evaluating heart disease. In a three to four minute scan,
- 1:14:54Speaker 20: we're able to see the arteries in the heart, see
- 1:14:56Speaker 20: if there's any blockage, to see if there's any plaque
- 1:14:59Speaker 20: build up of beginning of blockage calcification. We can see
- 1:15:04Speaker 20: the heart chambers, the major arteries in the body, the AORDA,
- 1:15:08Speaker 20: pulmonary arteries. In addition, we get a limited view of
- 1:15:11Speaker 20: the lungs and other structures. But it's the most accurate scan.
- 1:15:16Speaker 20: It takes three four minutes. It's eliminated the need for
- 1:15:19Speaker 20: having stress testing, and more importantly, it's eliminated the need
- 1:15:23Speaker 20: and this is all pure reviewed published data. Eliminated the
- 1:15:27Speaker 20: need by almost half for having invasive heart catheterizations where
- 1:15:31Speaker 20: you have to go on the hospital and we have
- 1:15:32Speaker 20: to put catheters in. So a simple test. Charlotmagne, I
- 1:15:36Speaker 20: think you're right. You've been a big promoter of mental health,
- 1:15:39Speaker 20: and you know about half the people that come to
- 1:15:41Speaker 20: cardiologists have symptoms that sound like it's from their heart,
- 1:15:45Speaker 20: but it's often just from anxiety and stress, and so
- 1:15:48Speaker 20: often that one simple scan, if it's completely normals like yours,
- 1:15:53Speaker 20: dj Envy was perfectly normal could put your mind at
- 1:15:56Speaker 20: ease and allow you to get on with your life
- 1:15:59Speaker 20: without worry.
- 1:16:00Speaker 5: Now, you did my scan a couple of months ago,
- 1:16:04Speaker 5: and I was very nervous. I guess nervous about finding
- 1:16:06Speaker 5: out right. I think that's what most people like it.
- 1:16:09Speaker 5: Most people don't want to find out if something is wrong.
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: Shoot, I do when it comes to the heart, because
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: tell them about that. We don't make a duck. Yeah.
- 1:16:15Speaker 20: So again, just from the standpoint of understanding heart disease better,
- 1:16:23Speaker 20: a third of people who have heart attacks never even
- 1:16:26Speaker 20: knew they had heart disease before they had them. A
- 1:16:29Speaker 20: third of people who have heart attacks die the day
- 1:16:31Speaker 20: they have their heart attack.
- 1:16:33Speaker 9: So it's not pleasant. So some of this is silent.
- 1:16:36Speaker 20: It grows as time goes on, right, especially if you
- 1:16:39Speaker 20: have risk factors high blood pressure, diabetes, smoke, you're overweight,
- 1:16:46Speaker 20: your sedentary, if you have high cholesterol, or a family
- 1:16:50Speaker 20: history of heart disease. Okay, these are all the things
- 1:16:53Speaker 20: that as time goes on, the body changes and you're
- 1:16:55Speaker 20: building up plaque and blockage in the arteries. But once
- 1:16:59Speaker 20: you have the test, even if you have a severe blockage,
- 1:17:03Speaker 20: we can easily treat it. Nine out of ten times,
- 1:17:06Speaker 20: if a blockage is severe, the flow is limited through
- 1:17:09Speaker 20: the artery, and we have some objective approaches to figuring
- 1:17:12Speaker 20: that out. Nine out of ten times we can treat
- 1:17:14Speaker 20: it with a stent, which is an outpatient procedure. Unfortunately,
- 1:17:18Speaker 20: one in ten times you might need open heart surgery.
- 1:17:21Speaker 9: But it's proven you'll live longer, so just show up.
- 1:17:25Speaker 20: It's simple things as a community, as physicians, we can
- 1:17:30Speaker 20: do screenings, for instance, in the local churches, barber shops,
- 1:17:34Speaker 20: you know, anywhere, really schools, and once you know, once
- 1:17:39Speaker 20: you have that information DJ Envy, then it's just a
- 1:17:42Speaker 20: matter of finding a doctor or a healthcare provider that
- 1:17:45Speaker 20: you have faith in, that you trust, and working with
- 1:17:48Speaker 20: them to control get on the right medicines and monitor
- 1:17:51Speaker 20: and control your blood pressure or your cholesterol, your diabetes.
- 1:17:54Speaker 2: What I find interesting is that young black people are
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: living with diseas is more common at old the ages.
- 1:18:00Speaker 2: They're living with these diseases that should be that are
- 1:18:03Speaker 2: usually more common at old the ages.
- 1:18:04Speaker 20: That's scary, that's exactly right in the black community compared
- 1:18:08Speaker 20: to the white community. If the rate of high blood
- 1:18:12Speaker 20: pressure in Blacks between thirty five and forty nine is
- 1:18:17Speaker 20: fifty percent higher wow than whites.
- 1:18:19Speaker 11: The rate of.
- 1:18:20Speaker 20: Diabetes is forty percent higher. And if you have these
- 1:18:24Speaker 20: chronic diseases earlier, they're more likely over time to cause complications,
- 1:18:30Speaker 20: to have problems, to cause heart attack and stroke. And
- 1:18:33Speaker 20: even at sixty five heart disease, Blacks are fifty percent
- 1:18:39Speaker 20: more likely to die of heart disease than whites. So
- 1:18:42Speaker 20: these are chronic problems that can cause devastating acute complications,
- 1:18:49Speaker 20: and so finding it early and treating it and following
- 1:18:55Speaker 20: with the doctor. From a physician standpoint, it's our job
- 1:18:59Speaker 20: to make it easy. Our job to listen. It's our
- 1:19:01Speaker 20: job to build a relationship. It's our job to make
- 1:19:04Speaker 20: sure when you have a test, for instance, you get
- 1:19:07Speaker 20: the results of the test, and when you explain to
- 1:19:09Speaker 20: you you know clearly in language you can understand what
- 1:19:12Speaker 20: the implications are and how best to treat it.
- 1:19:15Speaker 18: All.
- 1:19:16Speaker 5: We got more with doctor Puma. When we come back,
- 1:19:18Speaker 5: don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning Morning. Everybody
- 1:19:20Speaker 5: is dj n V Charlamagne the Guide. We are the
- 1:19:23Speaker 5: Breakfast Club. We have doctor Pumer here. Now it's Black
- 1:19:26Speaker 5: History Month, but it's also American Heart Month. In February
- 1:19:30Speaker 5: we're talking to him about healthy heart awareness. I was
- 1:19:33Speaker 5: going to ask if you just you know, go over
- 1:19:35Speaker 5: some of the stuff. So what are you looking for
- 1:19:38Speaker 5: when you're actually doing the skin of the heart. Now,
- 1:19:40Speaker 5: is it easy to detect plaque? And like you know,
- 1:19:42Speaker 5: where somebody does have plaque or somebody does have a problem,
- 1:19:46Speaker 5: you can actually fix the problem right then and there
- 1:19:48Speaker 5: correct in most cases.
- 1:19:49Speaker 20: In most cases in New York State, we still have
- 1:19:53Speaker 20: to bring it to the hospital to do it. Although,
- 1:19:55Speaker 20: as you reflect, we have an ambulatory surgical center in
- 1:19:58Speaker 20: Lower Manhattan and we can fix lots of problems there,
- 1:20:01Speaker 20: but we're not allowed to go into the heart yet,
- 1:20:03Speaker 20: so we still have to do it in the hospital.
- 1:20:05Speaker 20: But if we see a Widow macrollsion, we'll get you
- 1:20:08Speaker 20: in the hospital same day or next morning. But the
- 1:20:11Speaker 20: images we get we get two things. We get images
- 1:20:14Speaker 20: of the arteries as if we did a catheterization, so
- 1:20:17Speaker 20: we can see blockage.
- 1:20:18Speaker 9: And then we do a what's called a heartflow.
- 1:20:21Speaker 20: It's a company in California that has this amazing artificial
- 1:20:25Speaker 20: intelligence software that can give us an objective assessment of
- 1:20:29Speaker 20: flow in the artery, and we have some cut points
- 1:20:33Speaker 20: that tell us if it's significant or not, any of
- 1:20:36Speaker 20: the plaques and that they.
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: As American heart muff. What should people be doing right now?
- 1:20:41Speaker 20: Doctor pum So, get your blood pressure check, get blood tests,
- 1:20:46Speaker 20: check your sugar levels.
- 1:20:48Speaker 9: Okay, go see your doctor. If you don't want to
- 1:20:52Speaker 9: do that, or you can't do that, let's start getting healthy.
- 1:20:55Speaker 9: Get off the couch. You don't need to train for
- 1:20:57Speaker 9: the marathon.
- 1:20:58Speaker 20: How about we just get off the couch, or you know,
- 1:21:01Speaker 20: on the way home from work before you go in,
- 1:21:03Speaker 20: take a brisk.
- 1:21:04Speaker 9: Walk around the block. You know, in a few weeks,
- 1:21:07Speaker 9: try two walks, you know, two blocks. Just start getting active.
- 1:21:11Speaker 20: But I think that you know, February is a great
- 1:21:14Speaker 20: month because it's a great reset month. We think about it,
- 1:21:18Speaker 20: we talk about it, and hopefully it encourages people to
- 1:21:21Speaker 20: take charge of their health.
- 1:21:23Speaker 4: I have one last question, signs of a heart attack.
- 1:21:25Speaker 4: What are the typical signs of a heart attack?
- 1:21:27Speaker 20: Yeah, that's that's actually a great question, and that's the
- 1:21:29Speaker 20: reason why so many people with anxiety come in.
- 1:21:32Speaker 9: So the typical signs of a heart attack.
- 1:21:34Speaker 20: If you're watching George Clooney and er, let's say, you know,
- 1:21:37Speaker 20: is you get tightness pressure like a crushing sensation in
- 1:21:41Speaker 20: your chest. We call it chest pain, but most people
- 1:21:44Speaker 20: say it's not really a pain. Okay, it's a crushing
- 1:21:48Speaker 20: pressure in your chest. You get short of breath. You
- 1:21:51Speaker 20: can get diaphraretic, which means cold, clammy, and sweaty. The
- 1:21:55Speaker 20: symptoms often radiate to the left arm, associated with numbness.
- 1:22:00Speaker 9: We're not really sure why that occurs.
- 1:22:02Speaker 20: The problem is in women and in diabetic they get
- 1:22:05Speaker 20: atypical symptoms. But I just describe are the typical symptoms.
- 1:22:09Speaker 20: So I'd expect a man like yourself to have those symptoms.
- 1:22:12Speaker 20: But women in diabetics can get atypical symptoms. They can
- 1:22:16Speaker 20: feel fatigued, they can feel a little short of breath,
- 1:22:19Speaker 20: they might feel indigestion like symptoms. People who have sharp
- 1:22:23Speaker 20: chest pain chest pain that increases when they take a
- 1:22:27Speaker 20: deep breath. Chest pain that occurs, you know, when they
- 1:22:30Speaker 20: do a particular motion, go to pick up a box
- 1:22:33Speaker 20: or reach for something.
- 1:22:35Speaker 9: That's almost always not from your heart. That's almost always musculoskeleton.
- 1:22:42Speaker 9: But let's go back to anxiety.
- 1:22:44Speaker 20: When you're anxious, your heart rate goes up, you hyperventilate,
- 1:22:48Speaker 20: you can get tightness in your chest.
- 1:22:50Speaker 9: It becomes hard to breathe, and you can get.
- 1:22:52Speaker 20: Numbness in your arm, so it could be exactly the same.
- 1:22:54Speaker 20: The point is you're not alone out there. There's people
- 1:22:57Speaker 20: to help you.
- 1:22:58Speaker 18: Go.
- 1:22:58Speaker 20: Seek attention, take charge your health, get the answer you
- 1:23:01Speaker 20: need so you can rid yourself of some of this anxiety.
- 1:23:04Speaker 9: That doesn't mean the anxiety will go away.
- 1:23:06Speaker 20: You might still have anxiety and panic attack, but at
- 1:23:09Speaker 20: least now you'll have the information to know I'm not
- 1:23:11Speaker 20: having a heart attack.
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: That's right, and that takes that That alone takes away

- 1:28:57Speaker 2: Fact iHeart Radio podcast network.
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: In the podcast is called I didn't know. Maybe you
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: didn't either.
- 1:29:03Speaker 2: It's only as a specialty podcast that we only do
- 1:29:06Speaker 2: during Black History Month. So every day during Black History Month,
- 1:29:09Speaker 2: b Dot gives you some Black history that you may
- 1:29:13Speaker 2: not have known. And today he's going to tell you
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: about one of the first HBCUs that was originally a prison,
- 1:29:19Speaker 2: Virginia Union University.
- 1:29:21Speaker 1: Let's discuss be out here.
- 1:29:23Speaker 15: And being a product of Winston Salem State University. I
- 1:29:26Speaker 15: thought I was very familiar with Virginia Union University. I mean,
- 1:29:30Speaker 15: we play the Panthers in football, basketball, all the sports.
- 1:29:34Speaker 15: Highly competitive. I mean you can almost say there are
- 1:29:36Speaker 15: are rivals. But what I didn't know was that Virginia
- 1:29:39Speaker 15: Union went from incarcerating black folks to educating black folks sorta.
- 1:29:45Speaker 15: To understand how Virginia Union was founded, you got to
- 1:29:49Speaker 15: know who Robert Lumpkin and Mary are. See in the
- 1:29:52Speaker 15: eighteen thirties, Robert Lumpkin he purchased Mary when she was
- 1:29:55Speaker 15: a child. By the time she was thirteen, she had
- 1:29:58Speaker 15: given birth to Rob's first child, and then she messed
- 1:30:00Speaker 15: around and gave him Foma. Robert Lumpkin was twenty seven
- 1:30:03Speaker 15: years older than Mary. That mean when she was thirteen
- 1:30:07Speaker 15: having his first child, oh, Rob were forty. In eighteen
- 1:30:10Speaker 15: forty four, Rob bought a jail called Lumpkin's Jail. They
- 1:30:14Speaker 15: said it was one of the seven most cruel prisons
- 1:30:17Speaker 15: in the South. They gave it a nickname, the Devil's
- 1:30:21Speaker 15: half Acre. In eighteen sixty six, Rob died. See by
- 1:30:24Speaker 15: then Mary and her kids were living in Philadelphia. They
- 1:30:27Speaker 15: relocated there during the Civil War. But in his will,
- 1:30:30Speaker 15: Rob left to jail to Mary. But she ain't wanting
- 1:30:34Speaker 15: to do with that prison. So along came an abolitionist minister.
- 1:30:38Speaker 15: His name was Nathaniel Cover, and he was looking for
- 1:30:41Speaker 15: a space to start a seminary for formerly enslaved individuals.
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: And Mary very gladly leased him to land.
- 1:30:49Speaker 15: See, the northern teachers of that time, they found it
- 1:30:51Speaker 15: necessary not just to educate the former enslaved individuals, but
- 1:30:55Speaker 15: the white folks in the South that hadn't been educated
- 1:30:58Speaker 15: to the same degree as the white folks in the
- 1:31:00Speaker 15: North as well.
- 1:31:01Speaker 1: Now this is all post Civil War.
- 1:31:03Speaker 15: So once Clove gets a hold of the Devil's half Acre,
- 1:31:06Speaker 15: his workers going there and tear up all the sales.
- 1:31:08Speaker 15: They take the bars off, and they turn the sales
- 1:31:10Speaker 15: into classrooms. There they started teaching black kids and birthed
- 1:31:15Speaker 15: Richmond Theological Schools of Freedmen. It even got a new nickname,
- 1:31:20Speaker 15: from the Devil's half Acre to God's half Acre. The
- 1:31:23Speaker 15: Richmond Theological School of Freedman became the first institution of
- 1:31:27Speaker 15: higher education for black folks in Virginia. In nineteen thirty two,
- 1:31:31Speaker 15: they merged with the first College of African American Women
- 1:31:34Speaker 15: in Virginia and became one of the first established HBCUs
- 1:31:40Speaker 15: Virginia Union University.
- 1:31:43Speaker 1: And I didn't know, maybe you didn't either.
- 1:31:47Speaker 5: No, All right, that's dope, you know, just fun fact.
- 1:31:49Speaker 5: You know, Virginia Union was the only HBCU. They gave
- 1:31:53Speaker 5: me a full ride a scholarship for full Rock.
- 1:31:55Speaker 21: So why you ain't going there.
- 1:31:56Speaker 5: Because Hampton looked so much better. I'm want to go
- 1:31:58Speaker 5: to Hampton University. My parents were upset out of too,
- 1:32:00Speaker 5: because Virginia Union was gonna give me everything.
- 1:32:02Speaker 4: But we had to pay for Hampton.
- 1:32:04Speaker 21: Yeah, I think you should have your life turned out.
- 1:32:07Speaker 4: I'm fine.
- 1:32:07Speaker 1: I think I think I did that.
- 1:32:09Speaker 5: Shout out to all HBCUs. You'll tell them where they
- 1:32:12Speaker 5: can hit the rest of the sholdmen.
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: Yes, you can listen to the you can listen to
- 1:32:16Speaker 2: I didn't know. Maybe you didn't either. On The Black Effect,
