- 0:26Speaker 1: two hours in the last twenty four hours, but I'm good.
- 0:29Speaker 1: Have you been doing? You not an early traveling I came,
- 0:32Speaker 1: I got here yesterday. Okay, you know I've been traveling
- 0:34Speaker 1: a lot. I wasn't amsterdamn a few days ago. So
- 0:37Speaker 1: I'm my clock is off, but I feel good. You
- 0:39Speaker 1: smoke nah non, you're not an early bird at all.
- 0:43Speaker 1: I am early, okay, yoka? How early? Um? I get

- 0:52Speaker 1: Three in the morning for right now. Okay, okay, all right,
- 0:56Speaker 1: but we got a lot to talk about. Justin Pearson,
- 0:58Speaker 1: Justin J. Pearson will be jo and you know, he's
- 1:00Speaker 1: the member of the Tennessee House of Representatives representing the
- 1:03Speaker 1: eighty six district in Memphis. I don't know why they
- 1:07Speaker 1: keep calling him in Tennessee three. Two of them got
- 1:10Speaker 1: Tennessee too. You know, it's actually the Tennessee too, you know,
- 1:13Speaker 1: in a plus one. I guess, well, she didn't get expelled,
- 1:16Speaker 1: you get expelled. And a white ladiness, that's right. Why
- 1:20Speaker 1: did you keep calling the Tennessee three because they always
- 1:24Speaker 1: co opt in. White women are always part of the struggle,
- 1:26Speaker 1: even if they're not in the struggle. There, I go
- 1:30Speaker 1: started early. That's all right, that's all right, and Chakor
- 1:33Speaker 1: Stevenson Box will be joining us, of course from Brick City,
- 1:35Speaker 1: New Jersey. Had to fight last weekend. Weekend. Yeah, you
- 1:41Speaker 1: have to fight last weekend. And we'll be kicking it
- 1:43Speaker 1: with him in a little bit as well. And then
- 1:45Speaker 1: we got front page news another mass shooting, just a
- 1:49Speaker 1: regular headline. At this point, I keep telling y'all, this
- 1:51Speaker 1: is the American way. I hate all these politicians that
- 1:53Speaker 1: jump out there and say this is not who we are.
- 1:55Speaker 1: This is exactly who America is. And when you take
- 1:59Speaker 1: a look at the world and you see what's happening
- 2:01Speaker 1: globally with the people who have taken a stand against
- 2:04Speaker 1: gun violence. You see the difference, and it's it's apparent
- 2:07Speaker 1: that a lot of people are getting paid by these as. Absolutely,
- 2:12Speaker 1: so we'll get into that when we come back to
- 2:14Speaker 1: wake your ass up. Sorry to depress you so early
- 2:16Speaker 1: in the morning, but it's at this point our world. Sorry,
- 2:20Speaker 1: it's life. Sorry, it's the breakfast club. Good morning morning.
- 2:23Speaker 1: Everybody is stej n V Charlomagne the guy we are
- 2:26Speaker 1: to Breakfast Club. We got our co host Ida Rodriguez
- 2:28Speaker 1: joining us this morning. Morning. Na, good morning, and let's
- 2:32Speaker 1: get in some front page news. Of course, Teslain Figureo
- 2:36Speaker 1: is here helping us out this morning. Now, test morning,
- 2:40Speaker 1: another mass shooting. Yeah, it's a damn shame. Yet another.
- 2:45Speaker 1: Like you guys mentioned yet another everyday headline. Unfortunately, yesterday
- 2:49Speaker 1: at twenty five year old bank employee open fire at
- 2:52Speaker 1: his workplace in downtown Louisville, Kentucky. Now. The shooter live
- 2:56Speaker 1: streamed the attack that left five dead and eight others injured.
- 3:00Speaker 1: The gunman was identified as Connor Sturgeon, an employee at
- 3:04Speaker 1: Old National Bank. Now. He left a chilling voicemail revealing
- 3:08Speaker 1: his plans to kill everyone at the bank. He was
- 3:10Speaker 1: killed by police after the shootout, and apparently dj Envy
- 3:14Speaker 1: he was under the assumption that he would be fired
- 3:16Speaker 1: soon and so as of now they're believing that is
- 3:19Speaker 1: the motivation. And the unfortunate thing is the gun violence
- 3:23Speaker 1: Archives shows that in two twenty three alone, there have
- 3:26Speaker 1: been at least one hundred and forty six mass shootings.
- 3:29Speaker 1: A mass shooting is defined as at least four people
- 3:31Speaker 1: being shot at at the same time, and that includes
- 3:35Speaker 1: at least fifteen since the start of April. Once again,
- 3:38Speaker 1: complicated issue, right, because you know it's not just about
- 3:41Speaker 1: the guns. Clearly this dude is suffered from some type
- 3:43Speaker 1: of mental health issues. Bright, you kill yourself, you kill
- 3:47Speaker 1: people because you about to lose a job. But they
- 3:49Speaker 1: said he started as an intern his way up at
- 3:52Speaker 1: the bank, and I guess he thought he was gonna
- 3:54Speaker 1: get fired or for whatever reason. And Bright, that job
- 3:56Speaker 1: ain't dying for you, So why are you willing to
- 3:58Speaker 1: kill and die for that job? Like that makes no sense.
- 4:01Speaker 1: You get fired from a job, you go find another one,
- 4:03Speaker 1: Like come on, and then remember this this live stream thing,
- 4:06Speaker 1: you know, this need to go live. I thought that
- 4:08Speaker 1: was an interesting part of it as well, that we're
- 4:10Speaker 1: seeing far too much. Yeah, there's some narcissism in this,
- 4:14Speaker 1: you know, and I think that you know, in reality,
- 4:16Speaker 1: when we talk about mental illness, we have to talk
- 4:19Speaker 1: about the fact that white men in this country are
- 4:22Speaker 1: having temper tantrums all over the place. And this is
- 4:26Speaker 1: an emotional temper tantrum to to just say I'm much
- 4:30Speaker 1: off everybody because I can't work here anymore. What a privilege.
- 4:34Speaker 1: He probably thought he was gonna walk away from this
- 4:37Speaker 1: because they tend to. That's right, and that's that's part
- 4:39Speaker 1: of it, right, that's part of it when you don't
- 4:40Speaker 1: know how to process your emotions, and it is part
- 4:42Speaker 1: of you know, not being emotionally intelligent enough to process
- 4:46Speaker 1: your feelings. Because that's all it is, right, you made
- 4:49Speaker 1: You made a permanent decision based off a temporary feeling.
- 4:52Speaker 1: I'm gonna be fired, so I'm gonna kill everybody. Come on, man,
- 4:55Speaker 1: that I don't understand the logic personally. Now what else
- 4:59Speaker 1: we gotta I see A Republican Republican called trans people mutants. Yeah, yeah,
- 5:06Speaker 1: this is a crazy story. A Florida Republican lawmaker compare
- 5:10Speaker 1: transgender people to mutants from the X Men while debating
- 5:14Speaker 1: yet another bill that would curteil LGBTQ writes. During a
- 5:18Speaker 1: debate on Monday about House Bill fourteen twenty one, which
- 5:22Speaker 1: would ban gender affirming care for minors and prohibit trans
- 5:25Speaker 1: people from using the bathroom that aligns with their gender,
- 5:28Speaker 1: Republican Representative Webster Barnaby went on a rant. Take a
- 5:33Speaker 1: listen to what he had to say. I'm looking at
- 5:36Speaker 1: society today and it's like I'm watching an X Men
- 5:40Speaker 1: movie with people that when you watch the X Men
- 5:43Speaker 1: movies for Marvel Comics, it's like, we have mutants living
- 5:48Speaker 1: among us on planet Earth. And you know, some people
- 5:51Speaker 1: don't like that, but that's a fact. We have people
- 5:54Speaker 1: that live among us today. I'm plenty of Earth that
- 5:57Speaker 1: are happy to display themselves as if they were mutants
- 6:01Speaker 1: from another planet. This is the planet Earth where God
- 6:05Speaker 1: created men male and women female. There is so much
- 6:10Speaker 1: darkness in our world today, so much evil in our
- 6:14Speaker 1: world today, and so many people who are afraid to
- 6:17Speaker 1: address the evil. The dysphoria, the dysfunction, and all of
- 6:23Speaker 1: your demons and all of your imps who come parade
- 6:27Speaker 1: before us. That's right, I called you demons and imps
- 6:31Speaker 1: who come and parade before us and pretend that you
- 6:35Speaker 1: are part of this world. So I'm saying, my righteous
- 6:39Speaker 1: indignation is stirred. I am sick and tired of this. Oh. Technically,
- 6:45Speaker 1: if you are a transwoman, you could be considered an
- 6:47Speaker 1: X men, okay. And if you follow comics like I do, stupid.
- 6:51Speaker 1: And if you follow comics like no I'm saying seriously though,
- 6:54Speaker 1: if you follow comics like I do, most of the
- 6:55Speaker 1: mutants are the good guys, you know, So that's not
- 6:58Speaker 1: the dissy thinks they did. But here the thing, this
- 6:59Speaker 1: is the problem. Even if you disagree with their lifestyle.
- 7:02Speaker 1: I'm not with the demonization of any community, okay, because
- 7:05Speaker 1: when you start demonizing people, it leads to discrimination, it
- 7:08Speaker 1: leads to them being harmed but simply being themselves. And
- 7:10Speaker 1: it's just always strange when I see, you know, black people,
- 7:13Speaker 1: other are just minorities people period, other marginalized communities period,
- 7:17Speaker 1: doing that to other people. Because that was a brother,
- 7:18Speaker 1: that was talk. He has an accent of someone who
- 7:23Speaker 1: was previously in some form called an alien by someone
- 7:27Speaker 1: who would say he sounds like he's foreign and an immigrant, right,
- 7:30Speaker 1: And Uh. But the funny thing is that he sounds
- 7:33Speaker 1: like he got a crush that was that was too heated.
- 7:37Speaker 1: At the end, he was I am tiring my righteous
- 7:40Speaker 1: indignation like a direction. Yeah, I don't know. I don't
- 7:46Speaker 1: even know what the imp is. What is an imp?
- 7:48Speaker 1: That is a that is also someone who is that
- 7:51Speaker 1: is a derogatory term of someone who is um, who
- 7:55Speaker 1: has a deformity. Yeah, understand people from arginalized communities do that.
- 8:02Speaker 1: The other people like, I don't see how you can
- 8:04Speaker 1: just demonize somebody for what they are, you know, I
- 8:07Speaker 1: mean it just seems like it's fear monging. But the
- 8:09Speaker 1: other mangering. The other thing is like when we're gonna
- 8:12Speaker 1: have a real conversation about this that is rooted in humanity,
- 8:16Speaker 1: because like the trans community is a very small community.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Why you ain't that angry about these white boys shooting
- 8:22Speaker 1: up the spot man, talk about it. Use that anger
- 8:25Speaker 1: for that, talk about it. Those are the demons. If
- 8:28Speaker 1: going into a building and killing you know, people just
- 8:31Speaker 1: say you're about to be fired. That don't make you
- 8:34Speaker 1: a demon? What does? All? Right? Well, that is front
- 8:37Speaker 1: page news, Thank you, Tess. We're seeing about an hour. Yeah, absolutely,
- 8:41Speaker 1: all right now, get it off your chest. Eight hundred
- 8:43Speaker 1: five eight five one oh five one. If you need
- 8:45Speaker 1: to vent, call us up right now. Whatever it may be. Men,
- 8:48Speaker 1: we can talk about some front page news stories, the
- 8:50Speaker 1: mass shooting, calling trans people mutants, whatever you want to
- 8:53Speaker 1: talk about. Maybe you had a great night or a
- 8:55Speaker 1: horrible night, whatever it may be. Phone lines are wide
- 8:58Speaker 1: open for you to vent. Eight hundred five eight five
- 9:00Speaker 1: one or five one, and I'd a ride Riggs. I
- 9:02Speaker 1: guess co hosts heads the Breakfast Club the morning the
- 9:05Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Who's this this Staria or this Charia? Or
- 9:11Speaker 1: what's going on? Avery? What's going on? Charlotte? Man? Peace King?
- 9:14Speaker 1: How you doing? Bron You lied on the phone. Just
- 9:16Speaker 1: just back up off the phone, just just a little bit.
- 9:19Speaker 1: They ain't don't speak. I'm taping it down, but listen,
- 9:22Speaker 1: I want to all speak on what y'all were just
- 9:24Speaker 1: talking about with them. It's man on Earth. I totally
- 9:29Speaker 1: believe in that. And I got nothing to do with
- 9:31Speaker 1: the MTB community as far as the great number, not
- 9:34Speaker 1: like that. But it's I feel it's just like it's
- 9:37Speaker 1: something different on this planet right now. Now. I agree
- 9:39Speaker 1: with the guy that called down the guy that called in,
- 9:42Speaker 1: I mean the audio called them. But what YA was
- 9:44Speaker 1: talking about on the report just now. But you know
- 9:46Speaker 1: the reality of the situation is, man, we all different.
- 9:49Speaker 1: You're different, you know what I mean. Likes there's a
- 9:51Speaker 1: status quote in this country, and that status quote, that
- 9:54Speaker 1: standard is whiteness. So anything that's not white is considered different.
- 9:57Speaker 1: Like they used to look at black people the exact
- 9:59Speaker 1: same way. He used to look at women the exact
- 10:01Speaker 1: same way. Still gave people the exact same way. They
- 10:03Speaker 1: still look at us like that, absolutely, you know what
- 10:05Speaker 1: I mean. So I don't understand how anybody from a
- 10:07Speaker 1: marginal lot community can demonize another marginal lot community. That
- 10:10Speaker 1: makes no sense to me. Hello, who's this jump right, Danny? Danny,
- 10:17Speaker 1: get it off your chest, hey man. First thing first,
- 10:19Speaker 1: I want to say good morning to you guys. And honestly,
- 10:22Speaker 1: you guys finished after my Thursday by listening to y'all
- 10:26Speaker 1: every single day, and I just want to say thank you.
- 10:28Speaker 1: But don't what y'all do man like thank you brother,
- 10:31Speaker 1: appreciate your shift, you got, you got, you got tree jobs. Yip. Man,
- 10:37Speaker 1: I'm a truck driver, man, and my hair on the
- 10:39Speaker 1: road man every night. Oh man, do me a favor.
- 10:42Speaker 1: Oh god, yes, Third, blow the horn. Come on, man,
- 10:46Speaker 1: you know what day. Don't say blue. I just said
- 10:49Speaker 1: blow the horn. You never did that as a kid.
- 10:52Speaker 1: Well blow forget it? Thank you some weed with a blunt.
- 10:59Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no doubt. Man. Hey y'all, man, I want
- 11:01Speaker 1: to talk about this mass shooter. Man. First thing. First, man,
- 11:04Speaker 1: I've been it can still carry you for you know,
- 11:06Speaker 1: since I was twenty one years old. I just turned
- 11:09Speaker 1: thirty five and March twenty four, and honestly, man, when
- 11:12Speaker 1: I see these signs deaths on doors, like saying no
- 11:15Speaker 1: no firearms, I'm gonna be honest, I still carry them.
- 11:18Speaker 1: I got a family at seven that I still need
- 11:21Speaker 1: to take home at the end of the day. You know,
- 11:23Speaker 1: I'd rather be just by twelve and carry by six.
- 11:25Speaker 1: So I feel like we need to, you know, if
- 11:28Speaker 1: you know, if you're not if you don't have a
- 11:30Speaker 1: firearm and you don't have your permit, please go out
- 11:32Speaker 1: there get it and don't just get it. Practice, you know,
- 11:35Speaker 1: practice to protect ourselves from these demons. Man that's out
- 11:40Speaker 1: here doing all these killings for no no reason. I
- 11:43Speaker 1: feel like they really, they really need to take them
- 11:45Speaker 1: signs down saying no firearms. That's only keeping the good
- 11:49Speaker 1: guys out, such as myself, you know what I mean.
- 11:51Speaker 1: So those guys that want to go in there and
- 11:54Speaker 1: kill everybody, they're not paying attention to that sign. So
- 11:56Speaker 1: when we see that sign, of course we didn't. We
- 11:59Speaker 1: gotta go back, put it back in a car or
- 12:01Speaker 1: something like, oh man, we can't take the gun. And
- 12:03Speaker 1: there plus to be honest, like I said, Man, I
- 12:05Speaker 1: carry it everywhere I go. Man, I'm not I'm not
- 12:07Speaker 1: falling victim or my family's falling victims to nobody's names careless. Hey, brother,
- 12:13Speaker 1: I'm with you. I'm pro to a I'm just also
- 12:15Speaker 1: a pro common sense gun reform. You know, yeah, I agree.
- 12:18Speaker 1: And plus you know a lot of what you're gonna
- 12:20Speaker 1: do with a three eighty when somebody's has an assault Like,
- 12:24Speaker 1: I'm gonna still fight at three eighty. I'm still dumb.
- 12:27Speaker 1: We got we all are. But the reality of it
- 12:30Speaker 1: is is that we need to do something about because
- 12:32Speaker 1: we keep deflecting, we keep going around the real issue
- 12:35Speaker 1: is that people are getting these bumps, they're getting these
- 12:38Speaker 1: assault rifles. They're getting these We need to regulate that
- 12:41Speaker 1: and they need to Nobody is trying to take your
- 12:44Speaker 1: three eighty and you're nine from you. Nobody is trying
- 12:47Speaker 1: to deter you from having your own arm. But we
- 12:51Speaker 1: keep co opting the conversation with that. And why should
- 12:55Speaker 1: you have to you have a family of seven, Why
- 12:57Speaker 1: do you have to go out and say society when
- 13:01Speaker 1: these politicians are getting mad money for encouraging and continuously
- 13:06Speaker 1: pushing this gun agenda in our country. That's right, And
- 13:09Speaker 1: what Danny just said the truck driver, I would say
- 13:11Speaker 1: this to everybody. If you're over the age of twenty one,
- 13:14Speaker 1: I would definitely try to get my license, get your
- 13:16Speaker 1: concealed license. If you get one in Utah, in Florida,
- 13:19Speaker 1: you can get it at any gun shop that allows
- 13:21Speaker 1: you to carry in about thirty states or something like that, concealed.
- 13:24Speaker 1: And yes, he said, if there's a sign on the
- 13:26Speaker 1: daughter says you cannot have your gun, you're not supposed
- 13:28Speaker 1: to carry your gun in that in that place. But
- 13:30Speaker 1: I would tell everybody go out there, go to your
- 13:32Speaker 1: local your your local gun store, fill out the paperwork,
- 13:36Speaker 1: fill the process out to get your gun license, and
- 13:39Speaker 1: train my wife to the and my daughter and my
- 13:42Speaker 1: son to the range. At lease, I try to take
- 13:45Speaker 1: him twice a month. I've said this a million times.
- 13:47Speaker 1: Man owning a legal firearm and knowing how to use
- 13:50Speaker 1: it in this country as a minority as a form
- 13:53Speaker 1: of self care about Also, if we, if enough of
- 13:56Speaker 1: us go out and get them, they probably will change
- 13:58Speaker 1: the gun loss. You might be but it's not easy.
- 14:00Speaker 1: They don't make it easy for you to get it.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Don't think you could just walk in there and get it.
- 14:03Speaker 1: They don't make it easy. You got to go to
- 14:04Speaker 1: the chief of the police. It's it's difficult, but stay
- 14:07Speaker 1: on it. They want you to give up. They don't
- 14:08Speaker 1: want you to get it. So do not the process
- 14:11Speaker 1: and get your license, all right, get it off your chest.
- 14:14Speaker 1: Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If
- 14:16Speaker 1: you need to vent, hit us up now. It's the
- 14:18Speaker 1: breakfast club. The morning the breakfast club, so it wasn't safe.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Basically had everything to do with face and spiilogy. So
- 14:28Speaker 1: make everyone know that everyone is specially we opened the
- 14:31Speaker 1: doors to the stables. Use I had one guy he
- 14:35Speaker 1: had a probably you know, say the spirit's hand see
- 14:39Speaker 1: it or whatever, but he was talented on the piece.
- 14:42Speaker 1: He made out beat. So my brother basically basically you're
- 14:45Speaker 1: saying that the mutants are a good thing. We didn't
- 14:47Speaker 1: even see that as being the mutant. You get gifted
- 14:51Speaker 1: and talented. That's right, but that's what But that's what
- 14:53Speaker 1: they are. That's what the X Men are. The X
- 14:55Speaker 1: Men are known as a gifted group of individuals. I
- 14:57Speaker 1: got Wolverine tattooed on my arm right now. That's a
- 15:00Speaker 1: horrible tap, by the way. I mean, it is a
- 15:01Speaker 1: horrible tap. But I like what wolver Re represented because
- 15:03Speaker 1: Wolverine had a healing powers, you know what I'm saying.
- 15:06Speaker 1: He was able to heal quickly. So that was all
- 15:07Speaker 1: that I was always into. I was always in the
- 15:10Speaker 1: healing before I even knew what actual healing was. Okay,
- 15:13Speaker 1: well get it, get it. I just appreciate his passion
- 15:16Speaker 1: because he was selling water to help people and hear
- 15:19Speaker 1: this man is standing on the floor demonizing people, and
- 15:22Speaker 1: I think that's that's what this is all about. We
- 15:24Speaker 1: will make a decision if we're gonna be part of
- 15:26Speaker 1: the solution of the problem. I have a just a
- 15:28Speaker 1: very big question mark about why so many people are
- 15:33Speaker 1: have such a hard on about trans people, like it
- 15:36Speaker 1: is a preoccupation that is so such a small population
- 15:41Speaker 1: of the country that you barely interface with, Like, how
- 15:44Speaker 1: many trans people do you come in contact with that
- 15:46Speaker 1: affect your daily life? Really? And there is such a
- 15:49Speaker 1: preoccupation with it that I want to know why, Like
- 15:52Speaker 1: what is it? Like? I could care less about you
- 15:55Speaker 1: know what you're doing. These people who can't have a heart,
- 15:58Speaker 1: the hardest time getting jobs, get murdered at a at
- 16:02Speaker 1: an astronomical rate, who are being beaten and bullied. Why
- 16:06Speaker 1: are you so preoccupied with them? I understand people not
- 16:12Speaker 1: wanting their children being exposed to sexual content at a
- 16:15Speaker 1: very early age, but there's just this fascination and this
- 16:18Speaker 1: preoccupation with the trans community that is very concerning to me,
- 16:22Speaker 1: because you know, how many people do you come unless
- 16:25Speaker 1: you got unless you really got something going on, and
- 16:28Speaker 1: you're dealing with some demons. What is the preoccupation? We
- 16:33Speaker 1: have so many bigger problems in our community. Don't feel
- 16:35Speaker 1: like they're making a micro macro. Yeah, it's really an
- 16:38Speaker 1: interesting all right, Well, get it off your chest. Eight
- 16:41Speaker 1: hundred five eighty five one oh five one. Our co host,
- 16:44Speaker 1: Ida Rodriguez is here and when we come back, we
- 16:47Speaker 1: got your room report. We got to talk about the
- 16:48Speaker 1: Dolly Llama. Uh so, weird stuff happened yesterday. We understand,
- 16:53Speaker 1: we'll talk about it when we come back. All right,
- 16:55Speaker 1: it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, a breakfast Club morning.
- 17:01Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Charlomagne the guy. We are to
- 17:04Speaker 1: breakfast Club. Good morning y'all. Our co guest host Ida
- 17:08Speaker 1: Rodriguez is here, and let's get to the rumas. Let's
- 17:11Speaker 1: go from my hat name or you gossip chatting the
- 17:18Speaker 1: rub report. I mean, I guess we're on the breakast clud.
- 17:20Speaker 1: This is where the tea spells right right on the
- 17:22Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. I just want to tell people out there,
- 17:24Speaker 1: if you're looking to purchase a home U the Federal
- 17:27Speaker 1: Housing Administration added a forty year mortgage. So now you know,
- 17:32Speaker 1: usually mortgage is a twenty five years or thirty years,
- 17:34Speaker 1: you have to pay within twenty five or thirty years.
- 17:36Speaker 1: Now they're offering forty years to pay that mortgage. So
- 17:39Speaker 1: if there was something that you thought that maybe you
- 17:41Speaker 1: couldn't afford or it's a little high, well now at
- 17:43Speaker 1: breaking it down to an additional ten years, so hopefully
- 17:46Speaker 1: that you can purchase that loan. So if you're looking
- 17:48Speaker 1: to purchase a house, make sure you uh, it's harder.
- 17:51Speaker 1: It's harder to get loans right now. Inflation is through
- 17:53Speaker 1: the roof there. You you check people out because well, FHA,
- 17:56Speaker 1: they offer a lower percentage as well, so it's not
- 17:58Speaker 1: going to be your typical six and a half percent
- 18:00Speaker 1: or seven percent or five and a half percent. In
- 18:02Speaker 1: some places they offer a lot lower rate, and sometimes
- 18:05Speaker 1: you don't have to put as much money down, So
- 18:07Speaker 1: just call your local mortgage broker or your bank and
- 18:09Speaker 1: find out more information. But they have a forty year
- 18:11Speaker 1: mortgage and sometimes they allow three and a half percent
- 18:13Speaker 1: depending on what it is in certain areas and certain things.
- 18:16Speaker 1: And you only have to put down skip me, not
- 18:17Speaker 1: three and a half percent. Three and a half percent down,
- 18:20Speaker 1: So just do your homework if you're looking to purchase
- 18:22Speaker 1: a home. Now, let's talk about the Dolly Lama Now.
- 18:26Speaker 1: He apologized yesterday for asking a boy to suck my
- 18:30Speaker 1: tongue Jesus Christ and to suck um. I didn't know
- 18:42Speaker 1: there was audio. I didn't hear it. I just see
- 18:44Speaker 1: a statement. Now. The young boy was asked to Dolly
- 18:47Speaker 1: Lama for a hug, and when he woke up, and
- 18:50Speaker 1: when he went up there to give the lama lama hug,
- 18:51Speaker 1: they will hug it. And they said, it's I guess
- 18:54Speaker 1: some type of I don't want to say protocol or
- 18:56Speaker 1: things spiritual thing that they do where he sticks his
- 18:58Speaker 1: tongue out and gives the boy hug. But him saying
- 19:02Speaker 1: I saw that I sucked. That say, that's the Bestian
- 19:04Speaker 1: culture that people stick their tongue out as the sign
- 19:07Speaker 1: of respect. But ain't nobody saying that you gotta ask
- 19:10Speaker 1: the little boy to suck your tongue. That's a whole
- 19:12Speaker 1: different ball game. Yeah, and you know what's it exposes
- 19:15Speaker 1: a whole world of stuff that a lot of people
- 19:18Speaker 1: don't get to see, especial talk talk talk. No, I'm sorry,
- 19:24Speaker 1: it's just that triggers me. I got my own issues,
- 19:27Speaker 1: so I just thought that was inappropriate. That's an understatement.
- 19:31Speaker 1: And then it's like, y'all watch a little dickie. Y'all
- 19:33Speaker 1: watch Dave. I love Dave Show. On Dave Show, you know,
- 19:37Speaker 1: they constantly talk about getting sucked, and that's what it was.
- 19:40Speaker 1: Dolly wanted to get sucked by a little boy, and
- 19:44Speaker 1: then you should call it what it is. Now. They
- 19:45Speaker 1: said that he apologized and said that you know, he
- 19:48Speaker 1: jokes like this all the time. And but what's funny
- 19:50Speaker 1: about that? What's funny We're asking a young boy to
- 19:52Speaker 1: suck your tongue. The kiss on the lips, that's not
- 19:55Speaker 1: that's not a relative of yours, that's not your child,
- 19:57Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And then stick you're tongue
- 20:00Speaker 1: about suck my tongue. Yeah, so eighty seven year old
- 20:03Speaker 1: man talking to a kid who's so young that they
- 20:05Speaker 1: had to blursh face up, and then you put out
- 20:07Speaker 1: an apology, just a simple apology like that's just normal behavior. Yeah. Now,
- 20:12Speaker 1: I was like, calm down, it was a joke. They
- 20:14Speaker 1: ain't got no they don't got no child services in
- 20:16Speaker 1: a just a lot of those places that you I mean,
- 20:21Speaker 1: when you read those books and you you you learn
- 20:25Speaker 1: about the things that happened globally to children, it's like
- 20:29Speaker 1: it's very very sad to hear and the fact that
- 20:32Speaker 1: he thought it was cool to be able to just
- 20:34Speaker 1: do that, even though it might have been a lapse
- 20:37Speaker 1: of judgment, that was a heavy laps of judgment. But
- 20:41Speaker 1: I guarantee you he probably does that when the cameras
- 20:43Speaker 1: are off, you know, absolutely, it just caught him, absolutely
- 20:46Speaker 1: all right, Well, nothing's gonna happen to him. I actually
- 20:49Speaker 1: shocked that he apologizing. I mean, he's apologizing because he's
- 20:51Speaker 1: responding to the backlash on social media. There's no uproar
- 20:54Speaker 1: going on in his country right now. I don't come
- 20:57Speaker 1: back with one of his philosophies, in order to have
- 21:00Speaker 1: big life, you must suck old man's tongue, Jesus Christ. Now,
- 21:05Speaker 1: Nick Cannon, it looks like um speaking of sucking tongues.
- 21:08Speaker 1: He looks like he's he might be interested in having
- 21:12Speaker 1: baby thirteen? Who would be the woman to make you
- 21:14Speaker 1: have a baby again? Right now? Right off the top
- 21:16Speaker 1: of you, I said, you could have any woman in
- 21:19Speaker 1: the world doing who's your Who could it be like?
- 21:21Speaker 1: If I said to you, Nick, Taylor Swift, why don't
- 21:24Speaker 1: I have a baby with you? That's the one that's
- 21:30Speaker 1: I'm all in. What is it about her? She's an
- 21:34Speaker 1: amazing songwriter. And what I do love about Taylor Swift
- 21:38Speaker 1: is the fact that she has been so vulnerable and
- 21:40Speaker 1: open with all of him. He's since a young girl,
- 21:43Speaker 1: and and she kind of liked me like me and
- 21:45Speaker 1: Taylor's numbers is very similar. When we're talking about being
- 21:49Speaker 1: in these streets, right, So I think she would relate
- 21:53Speaker 1: to me very well based off of like, Yo, you
- 21:56Speaker 1: dated a lot of people in the public eye saw,
- 22:00Speaker 1: so we probably would really understand each other. It was
- 22:02Speaker 1: swim numbers up there with Nick. I didn't know that
- 22:05Speaker 1: Nick got hot numbers really because she wrote a couple
- 22:09Speaker 1: of songs about her ex boyfriends, Like do you know
- 22:13Speaker 1: this is the funny thing to me, people recounting people's
- 22:15Speaker 1: partners that are celebrities and they be having doubled the
- 22:19Speaker 1: numbers in real life, but nobody gets to know about them.
- 22:22Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know Taylor Swift, is it? I
- 22:24Speaker 1: always think of her as a kid. I know she's thirty,
- 22:27Speaker 1: but it just feels like, you know, yeah, I don't
- 22:30Speaker 1: like it. I want Nick Cannon to have more black
- 22:32Speaker 1: baby mamas. She got Nicky got enough white baby mamas. Nick,
- 22:35Speaker 1: I don't know. That's what I hear about him. I
- 22:39Speaker 1: don't know how. I don't know any of Nick's baby
- 22:41Speaker 1: mom s Maria Cary, to be honest, I don't that's
- 22:45Speaker 1: only I don't know. I don't. Well, he is doing
- 22:50Speaker 1: another morning show, so congratulations to Nick. He's doing a
- 22:53Speaker 1: morning show with his baby mother. Abby Day La Rosa.
- 22:57Speaker 1: She's gonna be the co host. That's dope. That want
- 22:59Speaker 1: include bomb from Nick Cannon Show together, And that's true,
- 23:03Speaker 1: that's what they're saying. They're launching it on Amazon amp. Interesting.
- 23:08Speaker 1: But you never have to pay child report if you
- 23:09Speaker 1: get her a job. I'm serious, right, I guess flame
- 23:16Speaker 1: come back with the edible. I guess so he'll be
- 23:21Speaker 1: doing that, So congratulations to them. Then I say when
- 23:23Speaker 1: it's starting, but they said it's starting soon and you
- 23:25Speaker 1: could download the app and check it out, but you're
- 23:27Speaker 1: gonna be listening to the Breakfast Club, so you won't
- 23:29Speaker 1: get a chance to listen to that show. I listen
- 23:30Speaker 1: to that radio though, a good good sister. Now, lets
- 23:33Speaker 1: moon have to show on the radio, not from six
- 23:35Speaker 1: to nine at night in the morning, oh said the
- 23:38Speaker 1: morning show, sir. No, I'm not listening, That's what I say.
- 23:43Speaker 1: Six at the same time with us, yes, oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 23:46Speaker 1: yeah yeah definitely not y'all know what you shot at
- 23:49Speaker 1: them out? I don't even know why you shot at them,
- 23:55Speaker 1: just left it at the house, stirred story. Ain't you
- 23:57Speaker 1: didn't even have to say that. I've gotten it. And lastly,
- 24:01Speaker 1: six nine is Uh, he was. You know, we talked
- 24:03Speaker 1: about him yesterday about him suing the Florida gym. But
- 24:05Speaker 1: now he's being sued and that's because he owes American
- 24:09Speaker 1: Express allegedly one hundred and twenty thousand dollars. Uh. They're
- 24:13Speaker 1: saying that he didn't pay his bill allegedly, and now
- 24:15Speaker 1: a company has resorted to legal action against him. So
- 24:19Speaker 1: how long did they take before they come after you
- 24:20Speaker 1: from They're pretty fast, really, they're pretty fast. I think
- 24:23Speaker 1: it's like forty five days they don't get their money.
- 24:25Speaker 1: They the thirty yes, and they put out an announce
- 24:28Speaker 1: the time. If you look at American Express, the people
- 24:31Speaker 1: that owe them, it's up. They do it every time.
- 24:35Speaker 1: They do it to everybody. They do it. We're not
- 24:38Speaker 1: reporting everybody, you know what I mean? Yeah, like that
- 24:41Speaker 1: that had to be a press release. Yeah, but they
- 24:44Speaker 1: do that to old celebrities. If if you owe the money,
- 24:46Speaker 1: you go over, I think it's like forty five days
- 24:48Speaker 1: they will put it out there, this person owes this
- 24:50Speaker 1: much money. It happens all the time. Man, what you're
- 24:54Speaker 1: checking your bill right now? That's just like I don't know,

- 25:47Speaker 1: for Tesla figure On. That's right, Tessa's back now, Tesla
- 25:50Speaker 1: or what's going on in Tennessee? Did did they get reappointed?
- 25:53Speaker 1: What's going on? Yeah, good morning, everybody, Breakfast club family.
- 25:57Speaker 1: So we covered this story on yesterday and many of
- 25:59Speaker 1: you have certainly been watching it over the last few
- 26:02Speaker 1: days of hearing about the Tennessee three and as we
- 26:05Speaker 1: talked about there not the Tennessee three is actually the
- 26:08Speaker 1: Tennessee two and now there is one. So again covering
- 26:12Speaker 1: the story on yesterday, I wanted to give you a
- 26:14Speaker 1: quick update on Tennessee House Representative Justin Jones. Now, Justin
- 26:18Speaker 1: Jones and Justin Pearson were expelled for breaking decorum rules
- 26:22Speaker 1: on the House floor March thirtieth, and yesterday afternoon, Justin
- 26:26Speaker 1: Jones was reappointed to his former seat in the fifty
- 26:29Speaker 1: second district in Nashville by the Metro Council. Now, the
- 26:33Speaker 1: Metro Council voted thirty six to zero to appoint Jones
- 26:36Speaker 1: as the interroom representative for the district. So, in other words,
- 26:39Speaker 1: they appointed him to replace him as an interroom Now,
- 26:43Speaker 1: as far as what is going on with Justin Pearson,
- 26:47Speaker 1: there is a meeting scheduled on Wednesday to see if
- 26:51Speaker 1: he will be reinstated. So let's take a quick listen
- 26:54Speaker 1: to what Justin Jones said yesterday on the Capitol steps.
- 26:58Speaker 1: So I want to thank you all failure today, particularly
- 27:01Speaker 1: the young people who are the heartbeat of this movement.
- 27:05Speaker 1: It were students taking walking out of classes and taking
- 27:08Speaker 1: to this capitol that led us into the well that
- 27:10Speaker 1: day calling for common sense gun laws. And the first
- 27:13Speaker 1: thing I do when I walk into this building as
- 27:14Speaker 1: a representative is to continue that call for common sense
- 27:17Speaker 1: gun legislation. Hey, I'm happy for Justin Jones, and I'm
- 27:23Speaker 1: happy that he got reinstated. But if y'all gonna call
- 27:25Speaker 1: him a new generation of leaders, and you know, y'all
- 27:28Speaker 1: gonna say that they got new energy, they gotta find
- 27:30Speaker 1: a new song. I don't want to hear no young
- 27:32Speaker 1: people singing we shall overcome. Boy. He pissed me off
- 27:35Speaker 1: when I saw he was singing we shall overcome with
- 27:37Speaker 1: that white lady and that damn man. Point they could
- 27:39Speaker 1: do not give you buckers something like yeah up, let's
- 27:43Speaker 1: definitely stop the singing. Uh. You know, but a couple
- 27:46Speaker 1: of things to want to point out. You know, they
- 27:47Speaker 1: cannot be spelled for the same thing twice. So if
- 27:50Speaker 1: they go back to the floor and decide again to
- 27:53Speaker 1: protest with a bullhorn, which is, you know, the excuse
- 27:56Speaker 1: that they used on why they expelled them. Obviously, we
- 27:59Speaker 1: know it's a big issue, you know, certainly has a
- 28:02Speaker 1: lot to do with race, has a lot to do
- 28:03Speaker 1: with the House Republicans not being able to really you know,
- 28:06Speaker 1: deal with the change. But the excuse, as they gave
- 28:09Speaker 1: was the bullhorn. So um, they will be going, well,
- 28:12Speaker 1: he will be going back to his seat. And another
- 28:15Speaker 1: thing that's really important is he will still have to
- 28:17Speaker 1: run again to hold this seat. You know, That's what
- 28:20Speaker 1: I want people to not forget. He has to run
- 28:21Speaker 1: in a special election and then he still has to
- 28:24Speaker 1: run in a general election in order to really be
- 28:26Speaker 1: put back in that seat. So those who you know
- 28:29Speaker 1: are following this story, you know, don't just forget about
- 28:31Speaker 1: it this week. Look at it long term and see
- 28:34Speaker 1: how important it is, you know, to stay on top
- 28:36Speaker 1: of local and state politics and vote. Also a big
- 28:39Speaker 1: shout out to Tamika Mallory who was president, who went
- 28:42Speaker 1: down there and showed up to make sure that justice
- 28:46Speaker 1: was served. But that's important to remember why a lot
- 28:50Speaker 1: of people who talk about anti voting stuff, it's you
- 28:55Speaker 1: talk about it on a national level, but when it
- 28:57Speaker 1: comes to these regional situations. This is why you vote,
- 29:02Speaker 1: because that man is fighting for his community and we
- 29:05Speaker 1: gotta we have to show fight for them. And that's
- 29:08Speaker 1: why we need to make sure that we are finding
- 29:11Speaker 1: out who the sheriff, the superintendent, people who are appropriating
- 29:15Speaker 1: the funds in our community. That is why it is
- 29:17Speaker 1: important for us to show up and vote. And that's
- 29:19Speaker 1: why I push against the people who say it is
- 29:21Speaker 1: pointless to vote because we need him back. That's right.
- 29:26Speaker 1: And if he running again, you're gonna need that money, rights,
- 29:29Speaker 1: you better believe it gonna need it because again more
- 29:33Speaker 1: people will be coming out to run against him. So
- 29:35Speaker 1: even though they're talking about the Tennessee Three, all three
- 29:37Speaker 1: of those who were put up to expel, we know
- 29:40Speaker 1: they only expelled two collectively, there is about two hundred
- 29:43Speaker 1: thousand people that all three of them represent. But I
- 29:45Speaker 1: want to be honest with you, when you look at
- 29:47Speaker 1: the numbers on people that are actually voting in these
- 29:49Speaker 1: gentlemen will voting in less than two thousand people. So
- 29:52Speaker 1: when you talk about only two thousand people going to
- 29:55Speaker 1: the polls, now, you can pretty much look at that
- 29:57Speaker 1: probably being trimple because of this national versation, So who's
- 30:01Speaker 1: going to run against these men? That means what we
- 30:04Speaker 1: call get out the vote. More people are going to
- 30:06Speaker 1: you know, probably oppose Justin Jones and Justin Pearson. You
- 30:09Speaker 1: can expect that. So they'll need money to run, They'll
- 30:13Speaker 1: need to be able to activate those voters. And so
- 30:16Speaker 1: Jones and Pearson, just to be very honest with you,
- 30:18Speaker 1: because I don't know any other way to give it
- 30:19Speaker 1: to you, they're gonna have to make sure, you know,
- 30:21Speaker 1: that they take care of their district because although this
- 30:24Speaker 1: is a national conversation, and although there's national attension on it,
- 30:28Speaker 1: now that those the district that these two men represent,
- 30:32Speaker 1: you know, they're gonna have to make sure that they
- 30:33Speaker 1: stay engaged with them because remembers, they've only been in
- 30:35Speaker 1: office a few months, so there's a lot, you know
- 30:38Speaker 1: that that still needs to happen to make sure that
- 30:40Speaker 1: they get their voters out again for the special election,
- 30:42Speaker 1: which will happen in less than a couple of months. Well,
- 30:45Speaker 1: Justin Pison was in New York yesterday, so he pulled
- 30:48Speaker 1: up to the Black Mothership, the Breakfast Club. That's right
- 30:50Speaker 1: to use our bully full pitch. So we spoke to
- 30:52Speaker 1: him yesterday. Yeah, we're gonna get into that next so
- 30:55Speaker 1: thank you or Tessa's actually staying with us Justin Pearson
- 30:59Speaker 1: for Justin interview. That's right. He's a member of the
- 31:01Speaker 1: Tennessee House of Representatives representing eighty six district in Memphis.
- 31:04Speaker 1: We're gonna talk to him when we at least not
- 31:06Speaker 1: right now, but we're gonna talk, yes, right, so don't move.
- 31:10Speaker 1: It's the breakfast club, the morning the breakfast club. The
- 31:16Speaker 1: effects of this are and instead of actually addressing the
- 31:19Speaker 1: issue which started and the reason we went to the
- 31:22Speaker 1: floor is because there was six people killed in Nashville
- 31:24Speaker 1: at the Covenant School, private school. Six people, three of
- 31:27Speaker 1: them were children nine years old. The Tennessee State legislature
- 31:31Speaker 1: the following Thursday did not acknowledge seven thousand people who
- 31:36Speaker 1: showed up to our capital saying we want change, we
- 31:39Speaker 1: want you to do something. In fact, they had one
- 31:41Speaker 1: person speak about gun violence, one representative, then they cut
- 31:45Speaker 1: off all communication about it during what's called welcoming and honoring,
- 31:48Speaker 1: a period where we would be able to say to
- 31:50Speaker 1: the protesters, we're with you, to say to the community,
- 31:52Speaker 1: we're gonna fight for legislation. But instead of actually doing
- 31:55Speaker 1: the work of ending gun violence, putting forward legislation, things
- 31:57Speaker 1: that we need to have happened. They said, well, for
- 32:00Speaker 1: because you all got out of order, you broke rules
- 32:03Speaker 1: of house decorum. You don't deserve to be here, despite
- 32:06Speaker 1: the fact that our people sent us there. And so
- 32:08Speaker 1: we got a problem going on to Tennessee. And it's
- 32:10Speaker 1: not just limited to Tennessee, exactly, it's not just limited
- 32:13Speaker 1: to Tennessee. And this overreach and this abuse of power
- 32:17Speaker 1: is going to continue in your Florida's, in your Texas,
- 32:19Speaker 1: is in your Mississippies. So why were you expelled? That
- 32:22Speaker 1: That was a confusion that a lot of people had.
- 32:24Speaker 1: They didn't know why you were expelled. Yeah, the real
- 32:26Speaker 1: reason why we were expelled was because of what we
- 32:28Speaker 1: were talking about. Because you've got folks, Tennessee Republicans who
- 32:31Speaker 1: are willing to sacrifice our communities, our children, for the
- 32:36Speaker 1: National Rifle Association, for the Tennessee Firearm Association and not
- 32:40Speaker 1: address the issue. And so in response to us, they
- 32:43Speaker 1: called the children and the teenagers who were the predominant
- 32:46Speaker 1: groups of protesters, insurrectionists. They called us they elected, but
- 32:50Speaker 1: not the people that's thrown the capital on January exactly right,
- 32:53Speaker 1: But unlike January sixth, nobody died. Unlike January sixth, people
- 32:57Speaker 1: didn't show up with batons and pepper spray. Unlike January
- 33:01Speaker 1: six we didn't beat law enforcement. It was a peaceful
- 33:03Speaker 1: protest against legislation and against a status quo that we
- 33:09Speaker 1: know is disproportionately hurting black people in our communities. But
- 33:12Speaker 1: it was in direct response to a mass shooting that
- 33:15Speaker 1: had occurred, and their response to the mass shooting is
- 33:17Speaker 1: expelling us, not addressing the issue, right, mister Pearson. But
- 33:20Speaker 1: let's kind of just because I want to make sure
- 33:22Speaker 1: people are not confused on the actual thing that you were.
- 33:26Speaker 1: And I agree that you had every right to protest,
- 33:28Speaker 1: You had every right to speak up, but wasn't exactly
- 33:31Speaker 1: for using the bullhorn on the floor and not being
- 33:34Speaker 1: asked to be recognized. I just want to make sure
- 33:37Speaker 1: you understand exactly what it is. So that was part
- 33:39Speaker 1: of it, he said. We used a bullhorn, we hit
- 33:42Speaker 1: the podium, we spoke out of turns, we hit the podium,
- 33:46Speaker 1: We like hit the podium, you know, and while we
- 33:48Speaker 1: were talking, like slapping the podium measure you're speaking, my colleague,
- 33:52Speaker 1: that was one of the things that they said, you
- 33:54Speaker 1: walked up and you disrupted house proceedings or some of
- 33:57Speaker 1: the languages that they use, just anything that I mean,
- 34:00Speaker 1: trumped up charges to justify this. But here's the interesting point.
- 34:04Speaker 1: The last two times people were expelled, they had committed
- 34:06Speaker 1: criminal acts. I've been there. I was there for over
- 34:08Speaker 1: two and a half months. I have raised my hand
- 34:10Speaker 1: for dozens of bills, and the speaker can choose not
- 34:13Speaker 1: to recognize me. Really that day I raised my hand
- 34:16Speaker 1: for the period of welcoming and honoring. The speaker refused
- 34:18Speaker 1: to recognize me. Every time a bill came up that
- 34:21Speaker 1: I was going to speak on, I started with the
- 34:22Speaker 1: sentence we need to do something about ending gun violence.
- 34:25Speaker 1: The speaker said after the third time, if you do
- 34:27Speaker 1: that again, I will censor you for the rest of
- 34:29Speaker 1: today's session. Right, So, the opportunity to even be subversive
- 34:33Speaker 1: in saying something, or to use the democratic process which
- 34:36Speaker 1: they tell us we're supposed to, they willed against us
- 34:40Speaker 1: because the speaker is operating as some autocrat, right, as
- 34:44Speaker 1: some dictator who decides whether not democracy or debate is
- 34:48Speaker 1: going to be allowed. And so from that silencing, I
- 34:50Speaker 1: went out with the protesters to the galleries and outside
- 34:54Speaker 1: of the chamber who were chanting and shouting and encouraging
- 34:57Speaker 1: them right that we are going to fight for them.
- 34:59Speaker 1: The speaker turned off my voting machine and told the
- 35:02Speaker 1: chief clerk there he's absent. Representative Jones, they're absent. This
- 35:05Speaker 1: has never happened before, and folks have been there for
- 35:08Speaker 1: twenty thirty years and never seen anything like. I think
- 35:10Speaker 1: it's the Afrol justin the Afrol skin. Is the white people,
- 35:12Speaker 1: the Afrol, the pig, the fact that we are serious
- 35:17Speaker 1: about what we're talking about. Right, Let's talk about your
- 35:20Speaker 1: two A because I think there's a misconception on people
- 35:25Speaker 1: that you know, believe in the rights to bear arms
- 35:27Speaker 1: versus what you're fighting. Uh as far as gun reform
- 35:31Speaker 1: is concerned, and I haven't heard a lot about you
- 35:34Speaker 1: know the difference between the two. So can you give
- 35:37Speaker 1: us just briefly, what is it you know that you're
- 35:39Speaker 1: fighting for. Are you saying abolished all weapons and nobody
- 35:42Speaker 1: should have a weapon? Do you support two A? M
- 35:45Speaker 1: is it the assault military style weapons? Give us Let
- 35:49Speaker 1: let us know where you stand on gun violence and
- 35:52Speaker 1: how you see that. Yeah, I have nothing against the
- 35:55Speaker 1: second Amendment in people's right to bear arms. That that
- 35:57Speaker 1: isn't what's an issue, But it's an issue. It is
- 35:59Speaker 1: people having weapons of war on streets to walk into
- 36:02Speaker 1: schools and to churches and killing people. Y'all know ten
- 36:07Speaker 1: people were killed in Charleston. Nine people were killed in Charleston. Right,
- 36:12Speaker 1: we having more guns, and this is the solution that
- 36:15Speaker 1: Republicans are offering. Well, let's put more security officers in schools.
- 36:19Speaker 1: That didn't, say the church, right, That wouldn't have helped Larry.
- 36:22Speaker 1: So the problem is the guns are getting into the
- 36:25Speaker 1: hands of the wrong people. And the reality is there
- 36:28Speaker 1: are certain weapons that normal people shouldn't have access to,
- 36:32Speaker 1: especially eighteen year olds, especially eighteen year olds, because we
- 36:36Speaker 1: don't do anything. I'm definitely pro to way, but I'm
- 36:38Speaker 1: also pro common sense gun reform. Common it's just common sense.
- 36:41Speaker 1: We're not we're not asking to your point, we're not
- 36:43Speaker 1: asking for saying anything extreme let's take everybody's gun, nobody
- 36:47Speaker 1: have a gun or anything like that. We're saying that
- 36:48Speaker 1: there are better ways that we can do things. As
- 36:50Speaker 1: the President reached out to you, old Vice, Yes, we
- 36:52Speaker 1: had a good conversation with President Biden. It was reinforcing
- 36:57Speaker 1: that what the Tennessee three myself Representive Johnson, represent Jones
- 36:59Speaker 1: did was right and that the Responsive Republicans is anti democratic.
- 37:03Speaker 1: And it's also we got an invitation to the White
- 37:05Speaker 1: House to come and elevate this issue about gun violence
- 37:08Speaker 1: and the laws that can be passed, that have even
- 37:10Speaker 1: been passed in places like Florida, red flag laws that
- 37:13Speaker 1: can have a national impact. Do you think President Biden
- 37:16Speaker 1: should be doing mortal because they hurt my heart to
- 37:19Speaker 1: hear him saying that he's powerless and he can't do
- 37:21Speaker 1: anything without Congress. We know that you got the largest
- 37:23Speaker 1: bully pulpit in the world. How about call out some
- 37:26Speaker 1: of those senators that we know get money from these
- 37:28Speaker 1: gun lobbyists for their campaigns. So to your point, there's
- 37:31Speaker 1: a responsibility and coming upon everybody who's an elected official
- 37:34Speaker 1: to use their power that they do have. And this
- 37:37Speaker 1: is the same thing we say in the justice movement. Right,
- 37:39Speaker 1: nobody is powerless. Right, people have been made to feel powerless,
- 37:42Speaker 1: People have been ignored. People are not voiceless, but their
- 37:45Speaker 1: voices have been ignored. And I think for the president.
- 37:48Speaker 1: The Vice President did come to Nashville the following day,
- 37:51Speaker 1: Vice President Kamala Harris. We got to see her and
- 37:53Speaker 1: talk with her similarly reinforcing, but also she was holding
- 37:57Speaker 1: in the folks accountable too. On the ground in the
- 37:59Speaker 1: caption calling old body out, she did you know what
- 38:02Speaker 1: I mean? So she did. I didn't hear who did
- 38:04Speaker 1: she call out. I didn't hear her calling you by.
- 38:05Speaker 1: She definitely called out Cameron Sexton. Okay, that's the leader
- 38:09Speaker 1: of the House. Governor Bill Lee is the governor. William
- 38:13Speaker 1: Lambert leads the Republican Party. Jammery Faison is the caucus chairman.
- 38:17Speaker 1: Mark White is in Shelby County, our county and voted
- 38:20Speaker 1: to expel myself and my colleague Justin Jones. Yeah, we
- 38:25Speaker 1: do know. Until your point, it's something about that right.
- 38:28Speaker 1: We have to save their names because we need other
- 38:31Speaker 1: folks to know who is it that we have a
- 38:33Speaker 1: responsibility of holding accountable. And just similarly we have the responsibility,
- 38:37Speaker 1: just like we have responsibility of speaking the names of
- 38:39Speaker 1: those we lose, we have responsibility of speaking of the
- 38:41Speaker 1: names of those who are perpetuating this harm. That's we
- 38:44Speaker 1: got more with Justin Pierson when we come back. He's
- 38:47Speaker 1: the member of the Tennessee House Representatives representing the eighty
- 38:50Speaker 1: six district. You remember that he was expelled a couple
- 38:54Speaker 1: of days ago. We'll kick it board with him when
- 38:56Speaker 1: we come back as the Breakfast Club Morning morning, everybody
- 38:58Speaker 1: is d V Charlemagne the guy we are to breakfast Club.
- 39:02Speaker 1: Tesla Figuo is joining usaid, we're still talking with Justin
- 39:05Speaker 1: Jay Pearson. Now he was a member of the Tennessee
- 39:08Speaker 1: House Representatives representing the eighty six district in Memphish. If
- 39:12Speaker 1: you remember he was expelled a couple of days ago.
- 39:15Speaker 1: Tests Okay, so speaking of calling our names, then where
- 39:17Speaker 1: was Representative Freeman on the floor? Is a Democrat? Right?
- 39:20Speaker 1: He is a Democrat? That Why is Representative Freeman not
- 39:25Speaker 1: on the floor? Was not on the floor? Why was
- 39:27Speaker 1: he not on the floor prior to that? Does he
- 39:30Speaker 1: plan to get on the floor and join you in
- 39:33Speaker 1: this protest since these are actually his the constituents that
- 39:36Speaker 1: he represent. Because I'm all about calling that Republican leadership,
- 39:39Speaker 1: It's all about calling that Democrat leadership as well. And
- 39:42Speaker 1: so when I see a representative that actually represents the
- 39:46Speaker 1: constituents that were murdered, I want to know what's the
- 39:50Speaker 1: problem with him stepping up and also being expelled and
- 39:53Speaker 1: joining you in this protest. I'll tell you this. I've
- 39:57Speaker 1: spoken actually to Representative Freeman. He has some legislation that
- 40:01Speaker 1: I think is going to be useful and get passed.
- 40:03Speaker 1: But I will tell you this, for Democrats, and I
- 40:06Speaker 1: alluded this before, for Democrats in particular, going along or
- 40:11Speaker 1: within the institution as it has been set up has
- 40:15Speaker 1: been the norm. Resisting the institution has not. In fact,
- 40:21Speaker 1: we myself, Representative Johnson, Representative Jones, have overwhelmingly heard of
- 40:25Speaker 1: folks saying like you all probably should not have done
- 40:27Speaker 1: that because of the risk you can risking. It's just
- 40:32Speaker 1: as bad to me on the Republican side, though, So
- 40:34Speaker 1: if we're going to say that Republicans are holding up
- 40:37Speaker 1: holding up progress, which they are, then we have to
- 40:40Speaker 1: also be fair. You don't have to do it because
- 40:41Speaker 1: those are your colleagues, So that's okay, I'll do it
- 40:43Speaker 1: for you today. We also have to say that Democrat
- 40:46Speaker 1: leadership as well as holding up progress, because if you
- 40:49Speaker 1: and mister Jones and miss Johnson were willing to be
- 40:53Speaker 1: expelled and lose your seat while somebody else who actually
- 40:56Speaker 1: represents those who were slaughtered sits back in says nothing,
- 41:01Speaker 1: then that's unacceptable. So I'll just go ahead and ask
- 41:03Speaker 1: mister Freeman, are you going to join your brothers and
- 41:07Speaker 1: sister in protests or is he going to continue to
- 41:10Speaker 1: go along with the get along like that? That's an
- 41:12Speaker 1: important question. I noticed, your colleague, but I just think
- 41:15Speaker 1: that needs to be out there. I always want to
- 41:16Speaker 1: know you actually represent these people and you're saying nothing
- 41:19Speaker 1: at all, that's a great point. And if they don't
- 41:22Speaker 1: disagree with that point, and if it's a great point,
- 41:24Speaker 1: if they don't reinstate you, what's what's the plan? Oh,
- 41:27Speaker 1: we keep fighting. Before we ever ran for office had
- 41:30Speaker 1: any of these titles, we were actually fighting an environmental
- 41:33Speaker 1: justice to stop to multi building and all the corporations
- 41:35Speaker 1: from building a pipeline through black neighborhood of Boxtown in Westwood.
- 41:40Speaker 1: Saved a million people's drinking water. Our community rose up again,
- 41:43Speaker 1: the solidarity dividend. We got rich white people to realize
- 41:46Speaker 1: that if you allow them to steal black people's land
- 41:48Speaker 1: and build a pipeline, all of our water gets poisoned. Right.
- 41:51Speaker 1: You showed the interconnectedness and that if you hurt people
- 41:54Speaker 1: who are already suffering. We all suffer. Ending gun violence
- 41:58Speaker 1: is good for all of us, including our communities. And
- 42:01Speaker 1: y'all know, like in our community, whether it be Nipsey
- 42:05Speaker 1: Hustle or Young Dolph right like, we experience gun violence
- 42:08Speaker 1: in so many ways, but the attention that it gets
- 42:11Speaker 1: has almost been desensitized. And people have to realize that
- 42:14Speaker 1: the effects of their legislation is having significant consequences, acutely
- 42:19Speaker 1: black communities and poor communities. But doing something to fix
- 42:22Speaker 1: these problems benefits everybody, including their children. I'm doing a
- 42:26Speaker 1: show in Memphis, car show, and the biggest thing people
- 42:29Speaker 1: are scared of is safety. They want to make sure
- 42:32Speaker 1: they're safe. They've never had to hire this many security,
- 42:34Speaker 1: So that just tells me that the people in Memphis
- 42:36Speaker 1: actually just don't feel safe. This is not a rap performance,
- 42:40Speaker 1: this is not a street performance. This is a family
- 42:42Speaker 1: fun day. So how do we make the people of
- 42:44Speaker 1: Memphis feel safe again? We have to put in real laws, policies, practices,
- 42:51Speaker 1: and money into helping our communities. They passed a law
- 42:55Speaker 1: after the chief of police, our chief police went to
- 42:58Speaker 1: Nashville and said, please don't do this. If you do this,
- 43:01Speaker 1: we're going to see an increase in murders. If you
- 43:03Speaker 1: if you have permanent list carrier, you're going to see
- 43:05Speaker 1: more kids breaking into cars and justice steal guns. Of course,
- 43:10Speaker 1: two thousand plus cars have been broken into murders of
- 43:13Speaker 1: forty four percent issue exactly the effect that we knew
- 43:16Speaker 1: would happened if this Republican legislature passed. This bad legislation
- 43:20Speaker 1: is what happened. So there's a fight that has to
- 43:21Speaker 1: happen politically in the immediate term. We also need to
- 43:24Speaker 1: think about how do we have prevention. How do we
- 43:26Speaker 1: even if a sixteen year old kid has a gun,
- 43:28Speaker 1: how do we get them to night use that right?
- 43:31Speaker 1: Where do they need to be, what do they need
- 43:33Speaker 1: to access? And the reality is there's more work I
- 43:36Speaker 1: have to do, research, I have to do Ocean she
- 43:38Speaker 1: works at Center for Justice Innovation, and we're talking to
- 43:42Speaker 1: her organization and others like Mom's demand action. How do
- 43:45Speaker 1: we invest hundreds of millions of dollars into prevention instead
- 43:50Speaker 1: of only offering, as people said, thoughts and prayers or
- 43:53Speaker 1: praying for the person who's committing the act that God
- 43:56Speaker 1: helps them see these these false salute are not going
- 44:00Speaker 1: to get us to a safer community. Because here's the
- 44:03Speaker 1: reality the guns out there. They there. It's enough guns
- 44:06Speaker 1: for every person in American I have one, including the
- 44:08Speaker 1: babies and children. It's enough. The guns are there, and
- 44:11Speaker 1: so we're not going to go be able to go
- 44:13Speaker 1: and take everybody's gun back or anything like that. So
- 44:15Speaker 1: how do you actually prevent gun violence from happening in
- 44:17Speaker 1: the first place? And you got a lot of instances
- 44:19Speaker 1: of people come into side, You got a lot of
- 44:21Speaker 1: instances of kids accidentally shooting one another with guns, and so, okay,
- 44:26Speaker 1: is there some gun storage things that we can do
- 44:28Speaker 1: that might help us? Is their mental health services that
- 44:30Speaker 1: we can offer the folks as they don't believe, you know,
- 44:32Speaker 1: this is the last resort. It is going to take everything.
- 44:34Speaker 1: But instead of focusing on what are the right solutions,
- 44:38Speaker 1: the folks in the majority party in Tennessee and folks
- 44:41Speaker 1: who were silently complicit alongside them, are seeking to expel
- 44:45Speaker 1: and have expelled myself and Representative Jones. I want to
- 44:48Speaker 1: go back to something test said when she was talking
- 44:50Speaker 1: about you know, Freeman, because I always wonder about that.
- 44:53Speaker 1: Do you feel like you're getting enough support from your
- 44:55Speaker 1: own party? Because who's a white man, who's a white
- 44:58Speaker 1: man By the way, I just want to throw that
- 44:59Speaker 1: any the white man. So yeah, I wanted you feel
- 45:03Speaker 1: like you're getting eno support from your own party, because
- 45:05Speaker 1: I wonder what was the significance of Vice President Harris
- 45:07Speaker 1: coming there other than a photo opportunity like this, She's
- 45:10Speaker 1: gonna put some resources behind you, you know, so you
- 45:13Speaker 1: can campaign again, like what is it? Yeah, So I
- 45:16Speaker 1: thank you for raising this. One of the points that
- 45:18Speaker 1: we did talk about with Vice President Harris was how
- 45:21Speaker 1: do we build progressive leaders in the South. The fight
- 45:26Speaker 1: for American democracy, the fight for black liberation, the fight
- 45:30Speaker 1: for really everybody's liberation is under attack and siege in
- 45:34Speaker 1: the South, and so the place to resist is in
- 45:37Speaker 1: and I mean this, it's in state houses in Mississippi
- 45:40Speaker 1: and Georgia and Tennessee, in Alabama and Florida and Texas.
- 45:43Speaker 1: The work is going to be there. And we're reading
- 45:45Speaker 1: this book by Charles blow Um talk talking about the devil,
- 45:48Speaker 1: you know, right um? And so Vice President Harris President
- 45:54Speaker 1: Biden are not leaving the issue alone. And we have
- 45:58Speaker 1: talked about, Okay, how do we elevate the voices of
- 46:01Speaker 1: those most impacted, the victims of gun violence that help
- 46:04Speaker 1: us to come up with solutions, and then how do
- 46:06Speaker 1: we get more people who believe like we believe, who
- 46:08Speaker 1: are willing to sacrifice like we're willing to sacrifice to
- 46:10Speaker 1: get justice. They are kind of an issue alone, though,
- 46:13Speaker 1: when you hit a presidency, he's powerless. I think I
- 46:15Speaker 1: can't do anything but plead the Congress to do something. Yeah,
- 46:19Speaker 1: that's kind of leave an issue alone. That's kinds above
- 46:21Speaker 1: me now. I think one of the things I'll say,
- 46:23Speaker 1: the things that he has done well in this part
- 46:24Speaker 1: are the executive actions that he's been able to take
- 46:27Speaker 1: when it comes to Congress, though, which is right is
- 46:29Speaker 1: the federal branch that he probably has more interaction within
- 46:31Speaker 1: the state. It is a question of why are the
- 46:34Speaker 1: Republicans who are running the House and the Democrats who
- 46:38Speaker 1: are running the Senate not taking this issue as seriously
- 46:40Speaker 1: as they are. Senator Chris Murphy, he has been supportive
- 46:44Speaker 1: of us, but we need real legislation that does ban
- 46:46Speaker 1: assault weapons because the problem is if you leave it
- 46:48Speaker 1: up to states, they will do the most extreme thing,
- 46:52Speaker 1: maybe to their base, but when it's the federal government
- 46:55Speaker 1: that's it. All of us have to abide by the
- 46:57Speaker 1: same rules. And so I do believe him. Exercise a
- 46:59Speaker 1: political pressure on the Congress, telling them that they do
- 47:02Speaker 1: need to act and putting energy and resources behind that
- 47:05Speaker 1: is going to be really important here. As you said, like,
- 47:07Speaker 1: I'm grateful for the call, grateful the opportunity to come
- 47:09Speaker 1: to the White House so that we can further talk
- 47:10Speaker 1: about what do those actions look like in a deliberate fashion,
- 47:13Speaker 1: Because it's hard when you see a grandmother coming to
- 47:15Speaker 1: your office tell you about how her granddaughter was washing
- 47:18Speaker 1: dishes and got shot. They didn't even know that there
- 47:21Speaker 1: was a bullet round that had done it until a
- 47:23Speaker 1: police officer saw this small little hole through the glass
- 47:26Speaker 1: of the window. And you see her and you talk
- 47:28Speaker 1: to her. You don't have the same response as folks
- 47:32Speaker 1: who are saying, y'all just need to shut up and
- 47:35Speaker 1: be quiet or not not allow you to speak. All
- 47:38Speaker 1: we got more with Justin J. Pearson. When we come back,
- 47:40Speaker 1: don't move. It's to breakfast club. Good morning, everybody's dh
- 47:44Speaker 1: Envy Charlemagne the guy. We are to breakfast club. Tesla
- 47:47Speaker 1: Figaro is joining us, and we're still talking with Justin J. Pearson. Now.
- 47:51Speaker 1: He was a member of the Tennessee House Representatives representing
- 47:54Speaker 1: the eighty six district in Memphis, if you remember, he
- 47:58Speaker 1: was expelled a couple of days ago tests. So I've
- 48:01Speaker 1: representive here. So I do want to ask you this
- 48:02Speaker 1: before you get out of here, because beyond the Afro
- 48:04Speaker 1: and the the shaky, and you know, because they did
- 48:06Speaker 1: that in Congress, what would it tell me about your
- 48:09Speaker 1: black policy? That's important to me? Yeah, when you think
- 48:11Speaker 1: about so reparations, I'm one hundred percent for reparations. I
- 48:14Speaker 1: have been very long time for cash for credit, for check,
- 48:19Speaker 1: for credit card, for trust fund uh and And I
- 48:23Speaker 1: was on Bev Johnson, another member of the I Hear
- 48:25Speaker 1: radio community in January, and I explained the reason why
- 48:28Speaker 1: I'm for reparations isn't just because of the enslavement of
- 48:30Speaker 1: black people, because there are some people who say, well,
- 48:32Speaker 1: you weren't enslaved, and then we have to walk through
- 48:34Speaker 1: housing segregation, we got to walk through lynching, we gotta
- 48:37Speaker 1: walk through mass and cast rache when we're experiencing now,
- 48:39Speaker 1: what about reparations for all of these harms that we
- 48:41Speaker 1: have experienced all Are you willing to put it on
- 48:44Speaker 1: your website though, because it's not under your website on issues? Yeah?
- 48:47Speaker 1: Are you willing then, Okay, I'm willing to do that.
- 48:50Speaker 1: It is not the issue that people in Distric eighty
- 48:52Speaker 1: six are saying it's number one for them, because it's
- 48:55Speaker 1: to the point that was made earlier. They're definitely concerned
- 48:57Speaker 1: about safety, they're concerned about crime. A lot of my
- 49:00Speaker 1: population also elderly, and so you'll see on the website
- 49:03Speaker 1: Aging Justice. There's not enough money in social security to
- 49:06Speaker 1: actually help elders live out the rest of their lives
- 49:09Speaker 1: in a meaningful way. So policies that we're putting forward
- 49:12Speaker 1: have to do with people being able to grow old well,
- 49:15Speaker 1: which not include financial increases in money, by creating opportunities
- 49:19Speaker 1: for them to gather and to have community. I live
- 49:22Speaker 1: in the most polluted, one of the most polluted districts
- 49:25Speaker 1: in the state, and so God rest their souls. Both
- 49:29Speaker 1: my grandmothers have died of cancer, my grandmother Pierce and
- 49:31Speaker 1: grandmother Gwynn, and it was due to environmental racism, which
- 49:34Speaker 1: disproportionally hurt black people and poor people. So both my
- 49:37Speaker 1: grandmothers lived in a community community I live in now
- 49:40Speaker 1: where there are seventeen toxic release inventory facilities that are
- 49:43Speaker 1: polluting our air, water and our soil. And so the
- 49:46Speaker 1: black policy that I have, as you articulated so well,
- 49:50Speaker 1: is finding where there are the injustices and environment and education,
- 49:54Speaker 1: dealing with gun violence and everything that we can do,
- 49:56Speaker 1: putting the resources toward them, because it's indeed the majority
- 50:00Speaker 1: of my district that's being impacted of the effects of
- 50:02Speaker 1: it continue to be on everybody. And what is important
- 50:05Speaker 1: to note here is that for us to seek and
- 50:09Speaker 1: to be a part of liberation, and this is really important,
- 50:12Speaker 1: the people who do have the resources also have a responsibility.
- 50:16Speaker 1: And so when I talk about white people's engagement and involvement,
- 50:19Speaker 1: it is not to say I'm just concerned about what
- 50:21Speaker 1: they think or what they feel. Is because I believe
- 50:23Speaker 1: white people and people of privilege and power have a
- 50:25Speaker 1: responsibility of choosing a social location with the people who
- 50:28Speaker 1: are being marginalized because they got they have our money
- 50:31Speaker 1: and our resources, and they have a lot of what
- 50:33Speaker 1: they have because of what we do not. And so
- 50:35Speaker 1: I probially represent the pierson when they highlight you though
- 50:38Speaker 1: as the black man. See that's the thing, you know,
- 50:41Speaker 1: they keep saying, you know, you did this to a
- 50:42Speaker 1: black guy. You did this to the black guy. Representative
- 50:45Speaker 1: Johnson said, you know you were expelled because you were black.
- 50:48Speaker 1: So see, we got to be consistent if we're gonna
- 50:50Speaker 1: push black when it's time to say, hey, come rally
- 50:53Speaker 1: around us, and I'm on your side. I'm just telling
- 50:55Speaker 1: you being very fair. You know about how this looks
- 50:58Speaker 1: when we're saying black black black black black black, I
- 51:00Speaker 1: gotta dashiki, I gotta afro, I'm black and black bleak
- 51:03Speaker 1: bey black, and then we get to the policy and
- 51:05Speaker 1: say everybody else. It disengages a lot of folks. And
- 51:09Speaker 1: so when I look at people's issues on the website,
- 51:11Speaker 1: you do mention black when you talk about a criminal
- 51:14Speaker 1: justice reform, But when I look at the other you know, policies,
- 51:17Speaker 1: you talk about black voting rights and criminal justice reform.
- 51:20Speaker 1: So I would just like to see and this is
- 51:22Speaker 1: just something you know, for the toolbox, because I've also
- 51:24Speaker 1: seen a brother. You've gotten a lot of accolades from
- 51:26Speaker 1: a lot of black organizations. Shout out to Tammy. I
- 51:30Speaker 1: saw your and Memphis was defending your honor, you know,
- 51:33Speaker 1: with me in a three hour tourter space. So I'm
- 51:35Speaker 1: posing these questions to you because I want people to
- 51:38Speaker 1: know more about you and what you do for black
- 51:41Speaker 1: wearing a dash. People to realize in every issue that
- 51:46Speaker 1: exists in our society, in our country, black people's liberation
- 51:50Speaker 1: must be prioritized. Right, It's every issue, and so forgive
- 51:54Speaker 1: it if it's if it doesn't say it at every issue,
- 51:56Speaker 1: but any time that we are speaking about justice, that
- 52:00Speaker 1: is inherently a black issue, and it is important as
- 52:03Speaker 1: well that it be said. And I understand that. But
- 52:05Speaker 1: it has to be a prioritization of black people within issues,
- 52:08Speaker 1: but is everyone. And the thinking right for true liberation
- 52:12Speaker 1: is that we have to not only prioritize in policy
- 52:17Speaker 1: or even prioritizing what we speak, but it's to help
- 52:19Speaker 1: other folks recognize that when you're talking about black people,
- 52:22Speaker 1: it is not to the exclusion of everyone else. The
- 52:24Speaker 1: national policy is that you have a supermajority Republican legislature
- 52:30Speaker 1: who by partisan vote expelled two black men, but on
- 52:35Speaker 1: expulsion Representative Johnson because we stood up against the NRA,
- 52:40Speaker 1: because we stood up or an end to gun violence.
- 52:43Speaker 1: The result is the expulsion of two black men. But
- 52:46Speaker 1: how we got here is part of the problem, and
- 52:49Speaker 1: it's because we have an antidemocratic institution being run by
- 52:52Speaker 1: people who are being funded by the National Rifle Association
- 52:56Speaker 1: of the Tennessee Firearms Association. Can't people say that more?
- 52:59Speaker 1: That what pisses me off about this whole situation. That's
- 53:01Speaker 1: what I want to hear more people say, we know
- 53:04Speaker 1: why so many Republicans are against, you know, gun reform
- 53:08Speaker 1: even though the majority of people want to see it.
- 53:11Speaker 1: Tays No, We've been talking about this, you know for
- 53:13Speaker 1: the past few days. I hate when people forget about
- 53:16Speaker 1: the issue. I see everybody saying, oh, these guys are stars,
- 53:19Speaker 1: and you know they've they've been propelled to start them. Now.
- 53:21Speaker 1: I don't care about that. I care about the issue,
- 53:24Speaker 1: that's right, you know, And I've seen this before. We
- 53:26Speaker 1: saw this disrespect. We saw this with Kaepernick. You know,
- 53:29Speaker 1: Kaepernick came out talking about a specific issue, which police brutality.
- 53:32Speaker 1: Then it turned into well, he got kicked out of
- 53:34Speaker 1: the NFL, he got black ball from that fil and
- 53:35Speaker 1: everybody started focusing on that. That's not the issue, right.
- 53:38Speaker 1: The issue is gun legislation, right, one last question before
- 53:41Speaker 1: you go up. You know, the main thing is people's
- 53:44Speaker 1: voices were disenfranchised. And when we make it about the person,
- 53:47Speaker 1: the politician, then people start arguing about you, you know,
- 53:50Speaker 1: well was he? This was he? That when we make
- 53:52Speaker 1: it about the issue, then you're gonna have two eight
- 53:54Speaker 1: people say, well, he shouldn't be fighting gun by. I
- 53:56Speaker 1: believe that if we center it on the fact that
- 53:58Speaker 1: seventy thousand, whether collect three of you, over two hundred
- 54:00Speaker 1: thousand people's voice were removed, I think that's a bipartisan
- 54:05Speaker 1: thing that anybody should have a problem with, even if
- 54:07Speaker 1: it's a issue that they disagree. So if this happened
- 54:09Speaker 1: to a conservative, would you be an agreement that people
- 54:12Speaker 1: should be expelled just because somebody doesn't like what they say?
- 54:16Speaker 1: Never never right. And I've had conservative people come to
- 54:19Speaker 1: me and been like, this is wrong on every single level.
- 54:21Speaker 1: I would never vote to expel someone for breaking a
- 54:25Speaker 1: House to corn rule because what they said is something
- 54:27Speaker 1: I don't like. I don't like these people who say
- 54:31Speaker 1: there should be no exceptions when someone gets raped or
- 54:35Speaker 1: there's incest and they need an abortion, I don't. I
- 54:38Speaker 1: don't like what they say when they say everybody needs
- 54:41Speaker 1: access to an assault rifle. I don't like those things.
- 54:43Speaker 1: But that does not mean that the people who elected
- 54:46Speaker 1: you don't deserve to have you represent them. In the
- 54:48Speaker 1: way that you think they should. And it does not
- 54:50Speaker 1: mean that I deserve in any way, shape or form
- 54:52Speaker 1: to be able to take your voice or your power
- 54:54Speaker 1: away in a democratic process in setting. And so that
- 54:58Speaker 1: that is that this is a part of the issue
- 55:01Speaker 1: that we're in an institution that is being and operating
- 55:04Speaker 1: in an anti democratic way. And folks again on both
- 55:08Speaker 1: sides of the Republicans and Democrats outside of the chambers
- 55:11Speaker 1: have said the same thing. You can't take people's First
- 55:14Speaker 1: Amendment and away because you believe there's some absolutism that
- 55:19Speaker 1: doesn't even deserve a peaceful protest related to the Second
- 55:22Speaker 1: Amendment in a country built on protests. No, thank you, Justin.
- 55:27Speaker 1: We appreciate you. I appreciate y'all this morning. You appreciate
- 55:30Speaker 1: you too. Justin. Thank you so much for allowing me
- 55:32Speaker 1: to pull that stuff out. And I look forward to
- 55:34Speaker 1: Representative Bob Freemen of the Democrat who actually represents those
- 55:38Speaker 1: slaughters of speaking up. Keep us posted your campaign or
- 55:43Speaker 1: yeah again, you see the issues that we have on
- 55:45Speaker 1: our website. Go to vote justin Jay dot com. You
- 55:47Speaker 1: can contribute and also you can join our mailing list,
- 55:50Speaker 1: stay in touch and engage with us because this is
- 55:52Speaker 1: we are part of a movement and it is not
- 55:55Speaker 1: just going to be a moment that that that comes
- 55:57Speaker 1: and fades it away. For us, we're gonna say engaged
- 56:00Speaker 1: and all this because we know the effect that it has.
- 56:04Speaker 1: We know this was the catalyst for it was the
- 56:05Speaker 1: tragic death of six people in Nashville at the Covenant School.
- 56:09Speaker 1: But that does not again and this day after resurrection, right,
- 56:12Speaker 1: that doesn't have to be the end. And so it's
- 56:14Speaker 1: a part of that conversation that work is building this
- 56:16Speaker 1: movement the end gun violence, but also to do the
- 56:20Speaker 1: work of justice and so many different issues in areas
- 56:22Speaker 1: that impact black folk and particularly poor float poor folk
- 56:25Speaker 1: in our communities. All right, let's justin J. Pearson, we

- 57:11Speaker 1: with it work all right now. Swelle talks about losing
- 57:14Speaker 1: his girlfriend to a truck driver. I was living in
- 57:19Speaker 1: some producers basement. My ex girl she broke up with me.
- 57:21Speaker 1: I'm it's like one of my first girlfriends. So Boom,
- 57:24Speaker 1: she can't went to the crib one day. I ain't
- 57:25Speaker 1: got no French are We're sitting on the floor, Sweet Boom,
- 57:28Speaker 1: I can't be with you anymore. Why she left me
- 57:30Speaker 1: for this? Still Boom did the truck driver. But he's
- 57:35Speaker 1: making like seven K one, twelve K one. I'm gonna
- 57:37Speaker 1: take play it out though. When you got a five
- 57:40Speaker 1: so it had a car man. She put him in
- 57:42Speaker 1: a card to my I'm driving it. Okay, you we
- 57:51Speaker 1: sell you trip over here. Don't need to come over
- 57:56Speaker 1: here and do what I'm doing. Sh suped up a
- 58:04Speaker 1: lot of stop letting your girl do that thing, bottom
- 58:07Speaker 1: truck drivers when y'all pass him on the highway, stop
- 58:10Speaker 1: telling your girls, stop letting your girl say blow the
- 58:12Speaker 1: horn or whatever the hell that is. Let's blow the horn.
- 58:14Speaker 1: There you go. Yes, that story sounded so funny because
- 58:18Speaker 1: he was like, I was living in my producer's basement. Right,
- 58:22Speaker 1: it was interesting. I don't think you had anything to
- 58:23Speaker 1: do with the money. The guy probably just had his
- 58:26Speaker 1: life together. He had the vibe like she was feeling
- 58:28Speaker 1: his vibe. You know, he was treating it the right way.
- 58:30Speaker 1: You know, that's all it was. Because even if he
- 58:32Speaker 1: was up and coming artist, if she really was into
- 58:35Speaker 1: him and really had that connection, she wouldn't have left
- 58:37Speaker 1: him for the truck driver. Yeah, but what he said
- 58:39Speaker 1: was money related though, because he says he was making
- 58:41Speaker 1: like seven K twelve K a month. Then maybe that
- 58:45Speaker 1: just told you you should have said thank you. Yeah right,
- 58:49Speaker 1: I'm gonna eve truck drops blowed at home when they
- 58:50Speaker 1: heard that story. Just now. I'm sure all of them.
- 58:53Speaker 1: I'm sure all of them. Now. Kendrick Perkins, you know
- 58:56Speaker 1: he works for ESPN. He does our first take with
- 58:58Speaker 1: Stephen a smith for times now he was. He went
- 59:01Speaker 1: viral yesterday and that's because he was breathing loudly. Did
- 59:06Speaker 1: not believe they were gonna do a damn thing this post.
- 59:10Speaker 1: That's why the decision that they made, so we can
- 59:13Speaker 1: lament the decision. Man. The reason why is we think
- 59:20Speaker 1: they're not that good. We don't know if that brother
- 59:26Speaker 1: gotta sleep happening or something. Man, I don't know. I
- 59:28Speaker 1: feel like Kendrick always breaths hard, though it was extra
- 59:31Speaker 1: on the other day, so smooth, the big perk, he said.
- 59:34Speaker 1: They clarified that I'm working. I'm battling the flu while
- 59:37Speaker 1: I'm working. Some people take days off, not me. There
- 59:39Speaker 1: it sounds like he had what I had, Like I
- 59:41Speaker 1: had to polyps in my nose. I used to breathe hard. Listen,
- 59:43Speaker 1: I'm telling you, and I first take with no nose jobs,
- 59:49Speaker 1: just not a nose job, but I had polyps in
- 59:51Speaker 1: my nose that would make it very difficult to breathe.
- 59:53Speaker 1: Red used to say, Envy, why are you breathing so hard?
- 59:55Speaker 1: Nobody ain't never heard Ray used to say that the
- 59:57Speaker 1: envy crazy Red? Did you say that before I was
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: I was in the room with those counts. Now Red
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: used to say, you breathing hard. I went to I
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: went to the doctor because I was snoring a lot,
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: and they removed the polyps, which helped me breathe a
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: lot easier. I did not get you notice the contour
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: around the nose. You don't notice. You don't notice the
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: little shave off you got here. There's no shave off.
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: I told you. But if I was gonna get a
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: nose jef, I get the Peter Pan Like that's in
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: styles Like I'm just joking. Yeah, the one though Peter
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: Pan is like your nose come up a little bit. Nah.
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: Now now young m a uh, she's we haven't seen
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: her in a long time, but she says she's on
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: the road to recovery. She says she had a recent
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: health scare. She's not telling people what it is, but
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: she talks about it and says she's gonna be uh
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: putting in her struggles in the new music in documentary.
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: Long story short, basically, you know, just a small setback,
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: you know what I mean for just come back. Unfortunately,
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: I made a lot of wrong decisions um in my life,
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: and you know, things starting to come you know, catch
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: up with you, or whatever the case. So I just
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: want you to know besides all that I'm actually doing
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: much better. I've been getting well, you know, I've been
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: very much sober, you know, besides you know, dropping some
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: new music. Of course, I'm also have a documentary with
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: my story or whatever the case. So I keep beyond tune,
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: catch your back up because I know, y'all I've been
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: wondering and all that. Yeah, I normally sterious, you know,
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: I keep my personal problems to myself, but now it's talking,
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: you know, expand that and express that to y'all. So
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: basically to say like there's gonna be one of it
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: made summers. It's gonna be one of those it may summers,
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: I promise you. Now. It's all started when her Barba
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: posted a video of her getting her haircut, and people
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: noticed that she looked a lot thinner, and also that
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: her eyes were yellow. Usually when your eyes are yellow,
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: that's usually a sign of liver problems. So we don't
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: know what's going on with her, but I'm glad that
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: she looks a lot better and that she says she's
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: on the road to recovery, gonna get some new music,
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: a documentary, and shout the young may. Yeah, she's such
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: a talented rapper. She's she's really good. Definitely sending the
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: healing energy the young man, because I mean, you know
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: what I pray. I definitely pray for good health. Like
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: good health is one of those things that you always
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: absolutely include in your prayers, like you know, good mental health,
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: good physical health, good spiritual health. So yeah, definitely sending
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: healing energy the young man. Yeah. I had a close
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: friend that had a problem with his liver and his
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: his eyes turted yellow at first, and he had to
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: you almost had to get a liver. He had to,
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: you know, almost, but no, he almost had to. But
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: I guess your livers is that one organ that repairs itself.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: I'm not too sure, but I have no idea. He's
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: doing a thousand times better. And I'm a doctor, but
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: not that kind of doctor. You're not a doctor. I'm
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: an honorary doctor from so I can sit university even
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: didn't go there. My mother did. What does that name did?
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: My mother did? And I have a scholarship an endowment
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: fund at South Carolina State University. He paid for it
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: and so donated money to have an honorary doctor and
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: I'm a doctor, but not that kind of doctor. I
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: don't know anything about livers. All right, doctor mckelh, you
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: go the dolly Lama. You know he probably wants it.
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: But the dolly Lama needs to come to the front
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: of the cargation. We'd like to have a word with him.
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: He doesn't want your donkey. I'm too old. You're too old, friend,
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: but we'll get into it. Next it's the breakfast Club.
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: Good morning. Don't be out here acting like a donkey.
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: It's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a big boy.
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: I could take it if you feel I deserve it.
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: Ain't no big deal, I know, Charlotte, many guys go
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: out funny sall you gotta say something you may not
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: agree with. Doesn't mean I mean he's getting that donkey,

- 1:03:29Speaker 1: day right there. So the breakfast club, bitch, you can
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: call me the donkey of the day, but like I mean,
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: no harm Wow, old donkey of today for Tuesday, April eleventh,
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: goes to the dolly Llama. I said dolly Llama, not
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: Dolly mommy, as you heard Drake say on that New
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: record he put out last week Search and Rescue. Apparently,
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: Dolly Mommy means do it mommy, or come on mommy
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: in Spanish? Am I right about that? Dolly, Dolly, Dolly mamma,
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: do it mommay, come on mamma. Well, if that's what
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: Dolly Mommy means, then Dolly Lama must me do it
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: daddy or come on daddy, because yesterday we saw the
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: spiritual leader of the Yellow Hats attempting to get his
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: freak on. What are you talking about, Uncle Charlae. Honestly,
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm talking about because I don't
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: know the Dolly Lama's intentions behind what he did. I
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: just know what I saw, and I saw that eighty
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: seven year old man kiss the little boy on the
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: lips and then ask the little boy to suck his tongue.
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: Let's go to CBS News Miami for the report. Police.
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: The Dolli Lama is facing criticism after a video emerged
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: showing him kissing a child on the lips then asking
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: him to suck his tongue. Now, this happened in February
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: at an event in India. The video shows the young
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: boy approaching and asking for a hug. That's when the
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: Dolli Lama invited the boy on stage and kissed him.
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: And the statement released today, the Dali Lama apologized, adding
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: he often teases people he meets in an innocent and
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: playful way. But he added that he regrets this incident.
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: Now we have the actual audio of him asking get
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: his tongue sucked right and the sun might tongue now nasty.
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: That's another statement. Now. I was reading an article in
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: the Independent and they were saying that. Online the Dolly
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: Daddy's supporters were defending him, saying that the exchange can
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: be explained by Tibetan culture. Okay, what is the culture? Well,
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: according to a twenty fourteen BBC article, sticking out your
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: tongue can be considered as rude, but in Tibet it's
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: the way of greeting. It has been a tradition followed
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: by the Tibetan people since the ninth century, when the
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: region was ruled by Laying Drama, who was known for
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: a black tongue. After the death of the king, the
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: locals started showing their tongues when it asked to confirm
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: that they are not like him, are his reincarnation. Okay.
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: The Institute of East Asian Studies you see Berkeley, also
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: mentions this, and it's twenty fourteen piece. The institute said
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: on this website that's sticking out one's tongue is a
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: sign of respect, our agreement and was often used as
- 1:05:52Speaker 1: a greeting and traditional Tibetan culture. Okay, for every digital
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: d head, all internet imbeciles using this as an excuse,
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: y'all are seeing the devil damn point per usual. He
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: didn't just ask him to stick out his tongue. He
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: kissed him on the lips. As far as I notice.
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: Isn't his child, his grandchild, a relative, just the young boy.
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: And not only did he kiss him on the lips,
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: he asked the young boy to suck his tongue. It's
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: that part of the culture. Okay, I know it's part
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: of the culture. One of my favorite TV shows, Dave
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: dropped on a Clue's bomb for Dave. Okay, I love
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: Dave on effects all right. I was on the last
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: episode of the first season, but season two in the
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: first few episodes of the new season, fan freaking tastic. Okay,
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: I just got caught up over the last couple of weeks.
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: But on Dave, Gaida and Little Dickie are always talking
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: about getting sucked. Literally, that's how they describe it. That's
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: what they call it. I got sucked. The dolly Lama
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: might as well as used Dave's line when he was
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: talking to the little boy. Somebody's sucked me. Yes, you know,
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: I just disturbed so many of us because so many
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: of us have been molested by older people in our lives. Okay,
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: including me, all right, I wrote two New York Times
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: best selling books. I've discussed it. But for those of
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: us who have been molested by older people as usually
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: older people that we are supposed to trust, family, men
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: with spiritual leaders, in some cases teachers, people who are
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: supposed to serve our greater good are usually the ones
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: taking advantage of us as kids. So trust me when
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: I tell you the reaction to stuff like this is personal. Okay.
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: And when you got young kids, like so many of
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: us do, and you've been touched on before, the parental
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: paranoia that we experienced in no situations I don't even
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: have time to describe to you. All right, now, Okay,
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: that's what my therapist is for. But trusting, believe this image.
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: This image of sets my demons. And in this era
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: where you can go online and read qua non conspiracy
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: theories of celebrity pedophile rings and Valencia yago, when they
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: got the ad campaigns depicting kids and bdms to tire
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: and the child pornography court ruling papers, and let's not
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: even start talking about the priests and the Catholic Church, okay,
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: which is what I'm sure a lot of people thought
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: about when they saw this. Now, the Dolly Lamba did apologize, Okay,
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: he apologized to the boy in his family and said
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: he regrets the incident. No, he probably regret that the
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: cameras were rolling. You probably regret that you got caught. Okay.
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: You don't just randomly ask little boys to suck your
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: And honestly, sucking at the tongue might be more intimate
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: than sucking at the meat. You're sucking somebody tongue, especially
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: in this era of COVID and monkey pots. What's the
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: COVID requirements into bet All the eighty plus year olds
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: I know to this day, to this daywear mask around everybody,
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: especially little germ carrying kids. But this man, the Dolly Mama,
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: Dolly Mama, Dolly Malama is willing to risk respiratory disease
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: at his age because he wants to get his muscular
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: organ in his mouth. That age and chewing, speaking and
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: breathing sucked, the apology continues. The Dolly Lama often teases
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: people he meets in an innocent and playful way. His
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: holiness wishes to apologize to the boy and his family,
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: as well as his many friends across the world, for
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: the hurt his words may have caused. Hey man, maybe
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: I'm looking at this through a Western lens, or maybe
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: I'm thinking about being molested myself and how that adult
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: started in an innocent and playful way. As the Dolly
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: Lama described it in his apology, Maybe I'm just an
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: anxiety written parent who's triggered by his own traumas. And
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: when I see this video, I say to myself, I
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: would absolutely pistol with any adult who played with my
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: kids like that. Okay, all I know is in this moment,
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: I feel like it's very appropriate to ask for me
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: Ma to give the Dali Lama the biggest he haw
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: he haw he ha. You stupid mother? Are you dumb? Thoughts? Thoughts? Listen?
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: I completely agree with what you said. I was triggered,
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: and you know I've been molested and it was just
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: it was off. It was reminiscent of what we see
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: with the Catholic Church. We also think about, you know,
- 1:09:31Speaker 1: little children throughout the world that are defenseless. When this
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: man calls himself his holiness, and when we give these
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: people these titles and we revere them in this way,
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: then they are absolved from being held accountable for a
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: lot of their actions. And you know, you see that
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: with the Catholic Church all the time. That was not cool.
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: That was like a Freudian slip. Absolutely, What happens next? Now?
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: Does he does he lose his power? I don't know,
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. He just kidd seem let
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: me suck your tongue and you just stay there. Maybe
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: it's different over there. I don't know. He's gonna be
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: right where, he's gonna be right where you is. Yeah,
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: I don't know. Jesus, All right, well, thank you for
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: that donkey today. Yes, all right, now, when we come back,
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: let's open. Jesus would never you said, Jesus, You're right,
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: Jesus wouldn't never. All right, stop, all right, but let's
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: open up the phone lines eight hundred five eight five
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: one on five one. Let's talk ben Zeno. Now, the
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: reason we're discussing ben Zino is, uh, we don't have audio,
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: do we. Oh? We have ben Zino talking about marijuana
- 1:10:31Speaker 1: and his daughter Coy Laurey. Let's listen because she's about
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: fifteen sixteen. Listen that she can't she's smoking. I don't
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: want her to smoke, of course. So it's like damn,
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: like we know. So I don't want to be the
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: bad guy exactly what you want your kids to be
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: better than right. It's called necessary hypocrisy, But you won't stop.
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: I like that. No, say that again? Necessary all right,
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: So we're opening up the phone lines eight hundred five
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: five one oh five one. Would you smoke marijuana with
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: your kids? We're taking it out of Benzino. Benzino brought
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: the conversation because he was talking about weed, and he
- 1:11:08Speaker 1: him smoking weed, and he probably you know, seeing his daughter,
- 1:11:11Speaker 1: his daughter probably seeing him do it, and she started doing.
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: But we're asking would you smoke marijuana what your kids?
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: I think what he said is true. I don't, I don't.
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: I gotta look more into the term necessary hypocrisy. But
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: I think it's almost impossible to not be hypocritical with
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: your kids, right, you know what I mean, because you
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: don't want them to make the same mistakes that you
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: did when you was that that age, even even if
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: you still do it now. You know. Yeah, I never
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: went home and told my daughter teenage pregnancy. Let's got
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: But that is the question. Eight hundred five eighty five,
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: one oh five one. I'm sure like the first time
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: I ever tasted a Heineken was my dad. My dad
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: gave it to me when I was young. My dad
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: gave me bud bud wise though most corn of South Carolina, baby,
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: the king of bids Heineken, and I never drink again.
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: I spit it right out. I drink, but I was mad,
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: yell ever, I don't even remember the age, maybe thirteen fourteen, Okay,
- 1:12:02Speaker 1: but we're asking, you know, we're spitting things out of
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: your mouth. Yea, yeah, but this the whole idea suck
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: on my tongue, Charlemagne. All right now, the question is
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: eight hundred five eight one oh five one. Where'd you
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: smoke weed with your children? We're gonna talk about it
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: more when we come back. Don't move it's to breakfast
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: club the morning, the breakfast club sometimes because he doesn't
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: want his daughter to smoke weed. Let's listen, because she's
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: about fifteen sixteen, listen that she can't she's smoking. I
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: don't want her to smoke, of course, So it's like damn,
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: like we know, so I don't want to be the
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: bad guy. Thirteen exactly what you want your kids to
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: be better than right? It's called necessary hypocrisy. But you'll stop.
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: I like that. No, say that again. Necessary So we're
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: asking eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: What are your thoughts now? Either you have a daughter,
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: her daughter, and a son ages My kids are My
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: daughter's twenty six and my son is thirty one. Okay,
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: so they of age. So let's say they wanted to
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: smoke with mommy. I don't want to smoke with my kids.
- 1:13:10Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to create habits with my
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: kids where we just we different different differentiate parental lines
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: like I'm good with being their mother. No, I don't
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: drink with them. Me that my son doesn't drink. Yeah,
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to like a glass of wine.
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: I'm just asking. I mean my daughter will have a
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: glass of wine at dinner, but we're not about to
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: get messed up, you know, like have that attitude. I
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: just think you know. Uh. The other thing is it
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: depends on how old they are, right, because even if
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: I did something early, like I joked earlier, like I
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: don't want my daughter, Well you your your brain ain't
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: fully developed. Why are you smoking weed? If I did it?
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: You see how my life turned out? Why you want
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: to do this? Like? You know, I think we kids
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: just be afraid to draw lines with our kids because
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: we want to be cool with them. But you know what,
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: my daughter is twenty one. Um, I was thinking about
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: it when we had this conversation. Now this is where
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: it would be sticky. Yeah, of course you don't want
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: to smoke or do anything like that with you with
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: your kids. But if my daughter wanted to try marijuana,
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: if she wanted to, I would rather she tried with
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: me and learn with me, then try with somebody one
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: of her friends that she goes to college with. Right,
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: because where she's where where would they be buying this marijuana,
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: this cannabis from? Where would they be smoking it? Is
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: at least with fetal I would rather have come to
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: Dad and be like, hey, Dad, this is something I
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: wanted to try. I would like to try it with you,
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: because at least I can go to one of the
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: dispensaries I know, or some or you know, get it
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: from even my own you know, cannabis line. I don't know.
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: I don't think either one of y'all wrong. I think
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: you know, both of y'all approaches to parenting and how
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: y'all choose to, you know, be with your kids is
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: both correct because I can see myself going either way.
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: My kids are fourteen, seven, four in one, so you know,
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: hopefully I don't have to those problems. I hopefully don't
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: have to have make those decisions anytime soon. But I
- 1:14:55Speaker 1: kind of feel with iison like I want to draw
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: lines between you know, parents and children, Like I'm not
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: your little friend, you know what I mean, And I
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: don't smoke anyway. I do edible right, you know. But
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: let's say let's say you daughter want to do edible
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: you know what I mean? I would you rather she
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: get it from you than Flame? Monroe? Yes, please, the
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: Flames is out here doing sixty milligible for recreation. Unless
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: you can teach you about micro docing it and teaching
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: hot the effects your parents to getting it from a
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: friend that don't know when she takes something and she
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: don't know what she's taking. A lot a lot of
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: mine isn't for recreation. A lot of mine is for anxiety,
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it's not like I'm
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: doing it just strictly for recreation, even though I do
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: do it for recreation sometimes but not all the time.
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: So I don't know, I think any would I would
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: like to. I agree with you too. I would like
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: for them to come have the conversation, right, you know
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: what I mean? I agree, but I can't see myself
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: sitting around high with my kids. Yeah, we're not re
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: enacting the scene from Friday, you know. And I think
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I mean, I agree with you,
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: though I would want my kids to come to me
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: and of course monitor the situation, but to create the
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: habit where your kids feel like they can come do
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: that kind of stuff with you, I just feel like
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: you just if that that's the gateway, well happens when
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: they're like, yo, I want to try coke? Now? WHOA
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: I ain't never did that? Now you got about I
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: actididly smoke coke and a blunt, you know what I mean.
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: But I ain't never willingly. But that's part. You see
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: how you accidentally smoke coke and a blunt. Just imagine
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: if you're your daughter or you know, or one of
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: your kids wanted to smoke and say, you know what,
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: I'm gonna try it. My friend got something and they
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: smoke it. Now they're smoking coke. But that's why I said,
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: I agree with you when I would want my kids
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: to come talk to me about everything. But I agree
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: with ida when you know it's still lines between my
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: parents and children, because I ain't never sat around and
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: had a drink with either one of my parents, and
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to, you know what I mean. I wouldn't.
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: I barely like to drink around my mom. But I
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: know how she feels about that. My mom told us
- 1:16:46Speaker 1: a long time ago, y'all got to watch that alcoholics.
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: Y'all got a long line of alcoholics in your family,
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: So I know how she feels about that. So I
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: don't know. I can go. I could go either way.
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: I take a little bit of from what both of
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: y'all said, Hello, who's this? Hey? Shit? In a good
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: morning good morning. So I have a take on your
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: question about the mirror wanas before with your kids. Personally,
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: I wouldn't do it. How old our kids? Um, if
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: my children are grown, personally, I wouldn't do it, But
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: I do know parents that do allow it, because if
- 1:17:19Speaker 1: it's gonna be done, it's in the comfort of your
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: own home. Um, I want to see if things are
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: being added to it. I want to I want to
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: know your reaction to it, you know, because now these
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: mirror want to have benefits where I can't help that.
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: My medicine smells louder than yours. So at the same time,
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. You know, Um, personally, I wouldn't
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: do it if my child is my thirteen or teen
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: you know, definitely know, but a grown child yet definitely.
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: You know, I don't see your reaction monitor it being
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: done it. Get what I'm saying. Yeah, I would love
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: for my you know, I started I smoked weed mad early.
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: I was like sixteen seventeen. So if my if my
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: daughter who's fourteen, I did feel like that in a
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: couple of years, I wish, I wish she would come
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: to me, so I would tell her no, you know,
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: what I mean, like, that's something you should wait to
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: do until you get older. Your full frontal cortext didn't
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: even developed a twenty five right. But the only problem
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: with that too is is you know, once a kid
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: wants to try something, they're gonna try it, you know.
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: And if they're reaching out to you to try, you
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: can sit there and say no, I don't want you to.
- 1:18:30Speaker 1: But I would just hate for them to be like, well,
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: I'm gonna try with my friends anyway. And I got
- 1:18:33Speaker 1: the perfect excuse for that. What My daughter called me goofy.
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: All the time. She tells me I'm weird. I said,
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: that's because I smoked weed when I was young. So
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: after we watched Super Mario Brothers last night and I
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: kept going to you and she's just looking at me
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: like I was crazy. That's because I smoked weed when
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: I was young. So if you don't want to be
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: weird and goofy like your daddy, wait until you get
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: older to smoke your daughters a jeus. She could tell
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: that you're weird and goofy from great buddy. Hello, who's
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: this all right? This is Dove, Hey, Dove, what are
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: you calling from? I am calling from Ohio, Ohio. Now
- 1:19:06Speaker 1: you smoke with your daughter. No, I let her try
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: it because I've been smoked since I was twelve and
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: have my medical card. When she was sixteen, she's like,
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: I want to try that, so I let her try
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: it and she hates it. No, you let her try
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: it at sixteen to smoke. You let her try it
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: at sixteen. Yes, I don't. I believe that's contributing to
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: the delinquacy of minor Right, are tut? I believe you
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: are absolutely correct. Oh okay, Wow, you said she never
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: smoked again. She no, she hates it the first time.
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: She's like, I don't feel anything. So I'm like, well,
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: you need to hold that in Jesus Christ. Then then
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: we were going to dinner. She's like, I don't want
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: to go. I can't function. This is stupid. So yeah, no,
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: she hates marijuana. You know it's crazy. I'm nobody. None
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: of us can judge because I'm not gonna sit here
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: act like my dad didn't pas me a bud wid
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: one out the jib full beard though, you damn it man.
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: Jesus sixty. All right, well eight hundred five eight five
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: one oh five one. We're asking would you smoke weed
- 1:20:13Speaker 1: with your kids. Let's talk about it when we come back.
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club for more, call me your opinions
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: to the Breakfast Club topic. Come on, I did five
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: five one five one, wanting everybody a stage. Hey, Envy
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. I'd a
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: rod re gets this. Yeah, our cold and we're asking
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: eight hundred five a five one oh five one? Would
- 1:20:42Speaker 1: you smoke weed with your child? You know, I'd have
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: said something interesting. I'd have talked about what you was
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: just saying. No that there's a lot of data that
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: connects UM skipzo disorders with um underage kids who have
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: been smoking and doing drugs before they turned before their
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: brain is fully developed, and so there is a lot
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: of connection to schizophrenia and all of those disorders. So
- 1:21:03Speaker 1: you gotta be careful when when they when you're young,
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: because it happens right around with eighteen nineteen schizophrenia, because
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: your full frontal cortex doesn't develop intil you're twenty five.
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: So drugs and alcohol and all of that definitely uh
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: interfield the development of your full frontal cortex. Absolutely. All right,
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this, Hey, Nikki,
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: We're talking about smoking with your children. What's your thoughts, Mama?
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: So me personally, I would most with my children just
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: to create a safe environment. I feel like if they
- 1:21:34Speaker 1: were just out with their kids or on the street,
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: you know, anything can happen. They could actually only smoke
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: a late one or something like that. So I think
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: it would just be a safe environment for the late experience,
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: for God, for them or not. I think we got
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: to define this word children. I think as parents we
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: always call our children children, even when they've grown, because
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: what do you mean when y'all say children, I meant
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: twenty one. I meant twenty two, like of age. But
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: a lot of people are talking like how old is
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: your ya? Your child? NIGGI. My oldest is fourteen. So
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: it's funny because I just recently talked to him about
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: you know, drugs or whatever, and he's got into it.
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: He's just the anime. But I told him, like, if
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: he's ever curious to like, come to me, Like, don't
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: ask your friends to come to me. You gotta go
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: back to what we've been saying all morning. Man, your
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: frontal cortex is not completely developed until you like twenty
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: five drugs interfere with that. You can't be just having
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: these kids. That's why I'm a little off now. Problem
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: where you right, we all of it because we was
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: doing drugs too early. You're more off than anybody else. Hello,
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: who's this team? Hey tea, good morning? What's going on?
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: What's your thing is? That's act um? You know the
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: parents are trying to be their friends. Some kids gonna
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: have a bazillions friends. They're only gonna have one or
- 1:22:54Speaker 1: two parents. You know, all depends on that. But you
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: know you gotta say your parents stop trying to be
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: friends with those kids. Why would I? Why would I
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: sit back and allow my child to you know, becomeinglegal.
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: I can't even get the word up, you know, use
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: use marijuana when you know you have to be on
- 1:23:13Speaker 1: a certain level. I don't like how you do all
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: of a sudden, trying to sound professional. Just say weed hat.
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: Youre about to say weed hat, and then you said,
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: just say weed hat. You don't want you kid to
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: be able? You know, why would I? Why would I
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: let my child be a weed head? You know? You know,
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: I mean it's different with the adult child. You know,
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: if they're on if they're you know, how I responsibilities.
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: They're doing that thing, and if they're to you know,
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: if that's what you and how you want a parent,
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: that's just not how I parent. But that's why I
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: think that the way it is because parents are not parenting.
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: Parents are more trying to be cool. The best part
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: of the parenting is remembering when you were a child,
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: so you can help that child through, you know, certain thing,
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: certain levels of life when they were when they were children,
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: when you were a child. Excuse me, I agree, I
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: just don't understand. I don't know how we keep that
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: door open for kids to still respect us as parents,
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: would still come to us about everything. But I mean,
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: you kind of need that because even if you look
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: at what influences most of us, right, and I know
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: what influenced you, and I don't know if it happened,
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: but you know, music influenceders so much, right. I favored artists,
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: our culture. Right back then, when we were growing up,
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: we didn't have as many artists talking about weed smoked
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: like we do now. That's a damn lie. It's not true.
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: We had. They were the biggest, right, doctor dripped out.
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: I've got the chronic that's sold five minute records. I
- 1:24:32Speaker 1: smoked the weed because of Dre and Snoop? Are you
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: talking about that? But now I think about all the artists.
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: Now there's so many small red man Meth and Man,
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: Dre Snoop. I smoked weed because of them, Touche, Are
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: you talking about touch but I'm thinking about but you
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: got whiz Khalifa and stop it. We always do this.
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: Our error was terrible. Our error was just they learned
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: from us. You're talking about seem like we see it
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: more now. I don't know why, because everywhere we have
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: a purpose. That song because we gotta, they gotta, they
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: got poses. I had no percoses. We have a robot
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: testing song because they had no we did. We did
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: sin all three six Manfall dip set. Yes, yes, yes,
- 1:25:12Speaker 1: we had ro You definitely Beanie Seagull uh uh uh
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: what's the song called? I can't remember Kyle Sarah before
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: a robot testing comes for me. Yeah, we definitely had
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: to the sharples out. Yeah, definitely surples out maybe right too. Shit,
- 1:25:26Speaker 1: But we didn't have a percose that song. No, we
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: So you had all this rapping about weed and coke,
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: A lot of them weed and coke made my eyes bleed. Um,
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: a lot of mutang kirt daddy, like a lot of people. Story.
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: Oh you don't know, I said, I agree with both
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: of y'all. Like you know, I want my kid to
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: respect me as a parent. Correct, you know what I'm saying,
- 1:25:49Speaker 1: and they should be lyned like I just said. But
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: then I agree with you and you know you want
- 1:25:52Speaker 1: your kids to always come speak to you about everything.
- 1:25:54Speaker 1: But correct, No, I'm not. I can't see myself getting
- 1:25:57Speaker 1: high with my children to do to do, even when
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: they're of age. Maybe I don't know. I don't know.
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: All right, when we come back, we got your room
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: and report. We're talking Kim k she's in a horror flick. Also,
- 1:26:10Speaker 1: Antonio Brown is being sued. We'll tell you all about
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: it when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club of
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: the morning, the Breakfast Club. Let me see you check it.
- 1:26:20Speaker 1: What is wrong with you? Man? I just want to
- 1:26:22Speaker 1: get the Auntie hype this morning. All right, morning, everybody,
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: we are to Breakfast Club. We got our co host
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: Ida Rodriguez here. She'll be back tomorrow as well. Yes, indeed,
- 1:26:31Speaker 1: but let's get to the rooms. Let's talk or gossip
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: and chatting the rumor report. I mean, I guess we're
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: on the breakfast club. This is where the tea spells,
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: right on the breakfast club. Now, Rick Ross was in
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: Jamaica over the weekend and somebody came up to him
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: and thought he was dragged. Jake correct, my name is
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: the big what's wrong with Jamaica's WiFi? Man wi Jamaica?
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: I guess not. I ain't never heard that Adam Yankees
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: look the same word on Rick Cross and Drake. That's
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: a total, total, total disconnect from culture. Yeah, that never happened.
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: It's kind of kind of strange, kind of weird. But nay.
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: Right now, Kim kardashi and you're excited about this. She's
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: gonna start an American horror story season twelve. That's gonna
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: be good bye, because American horror stories good, American harror stories.
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: It comes on effects. If I'm not no Hulu one
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: of them, No, it is effects. I think it is effects.
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: But I think it comes on Hula too, because they
- 1:27:44Speaker 1: all this same company. But American harror story is good,
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: like they really don't miss. So if Dave casted Kim Kardashian,
- 1:27:50Speaker 1: they've written something, you know, great for her. Okay, yeah,
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: and now we've seen her in small parts of CSI
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: and uh drop Dead Diver and two Broker, so we'll
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: see how that works out. Now, Antonio Brown, it looks
- 1:28:04Speaker 1: like he's going to be sued by a jeweler. Did
- 1:28:07Speaker 1: Jeweler saying that Antonio Brown owes him one point one
- 1:28:10Speaker 1: million dollars claimed he gave Brown several pieces back in
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: twenty twenty two under the promise that AB would pay
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: him one point one million dollars and allegedly AB hasn't
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: paid anything as of yet, so it looks like he
- 1:28:25Speaker 1: is being sued. And you have the audio of card
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: to be up there talking about the question about the Yes,
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: I get why you would sue, but if the person
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: hasn't paid you their money when you suit him, what
- 1:28:39Speaker 1: makes you think you're gonna get paid? You know what
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: I'm saying when you win the lawsuit, because you can
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: get stuff right, you can, if you have a judge
- 1:28:46Speaker 1: that sides with you, you can take cars, you can right. Well.
- 1:28:50Speaker 1: Most of the times when I think people don't pay
- 1:28:52Speaker 1: the jeweler is a lot of times once they have
- 1:28:54Speaker 1: the Julia jewelry already, they usually pay other things other
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: than the jeweler, Like you'll pay your mortgage in Dad,
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: you pay your car note instead, you'll pay all these
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: different things because a lot of times I'm assuming that
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: they forget don't even think about it. But wouldn't you
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: not want to have that bill? Wouldn't you want to
- 1:29:09Speaker 1: just go ahead and take care to jewels so you
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: don't get to it because now you got to pay
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: your lawyer, and then eventually you end up having to
- 1:29:13Speaker 1: pay the jewelers and costing yourself more money, and you're
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: not gonna be able to sell that jewelry for the
- 1:29:18Speaker 1: amount that you buy it for because it doesn't appreciate,
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: you know. I just I would just like to use
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: this opportunity to let people out there know. So this
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: is a cautionary tale, but just let people know a
- 1:29:28Speaker 1: lot of these celebrities and athletes be flexing and filosshing
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: on the gram and making trying to make you feel
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: like you're not enough because you don't have listen to
- 1:29:37Speaker 1: the American Express bill not being paid and this jeweler
- 1:29:40Speaker 1: not being paid. A lot of these people going in
- 1:29:42Speaker 1: the whole broke because they're trying to keep up with
- 1:29:45Speaker 1: the Joneses you're doing just right when you start putting
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: your money in your bank, So don't feel bad. A
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: lot of these people are frauds. That's why when I
- 1:29:52Speaker 1: hear forty plus year old equate money and wealth to
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: what somebody is wearing. Yes, yeah, that's saying to me
- 1:30:01Speaker 1: because everybody I know that got real, real money, in
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: real real wealth, they're not wearing it. You know what
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: I mean? Man. John O'Brian says, if your greatest asset
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: is on your ass yeah you know, then you don't
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: really have any ass as. I sit here in my
- 1:30:14Speaker 1: Gucci dress, but I didn't buy it. I didn't buy it.
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: So that's the thing about it is that that's why
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: I always tell the truth. Like I wear my clothes,
- 1:30:26Speaker 1: it was given to me. But I'm saying like I
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: wear something more than one time, like absolutely, you know,
- 1:30:31Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna go broke trying to
- 1:30:33Speaker 1: keep up with people. You know, Elon Muss is wearing
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: the same stuff like Bill Gates Where's jeans and a
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: T shirt? These people will be on the on Instagram
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: making trying to people make people feel bad because they
- 1:30:45Speaker 1: don't have Oh, y'all can't be I'm the I'm the
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: baddest and all of that stuff. You don't even know.
- 1:30:51Speaker 1: These people are living hand to model, Right, what's the
- 1:30:54Speaker 1: point of where I design it if you don't even
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: own a house. Yeah, that's the fact, you know it.
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: Don't even make things. And I tell everybody out there,
- 1:31:02Speaker 1: it's if you want to buy something, that's that you
- 1:31:05Speaker 1: want to buy, whether it's something Gucci or Louis Vaton
- 1:31:08Speaker 1: or Christian Dior or a nice car or anything anything
- 1:31:11Speaker 1: out there some jury. I always tell people this, invest
- 1:31:14Speaker 1: in something that pays for that, you know, you know,
- 1:31:17Speaker 1: try to purchase a two family house. I was out
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: in a deep part out in Jersey and they would
- 1:31:22Speaker 1: had homes in the area for like forty thousand dollars
- 1:31:24Speaker 1: and these like multi units, and people were renting him
- 1:31:27Speaker 1: out for thirteen hundred dollars each door. And there was
- 1:31:30Speaker 1: a young dude out there that I was talking to
- 1:31:32Speaker 1: that you know, he was a party promoter and you know,
- 1:31:35Speaker 1: it got cold during COVID and he started investing in
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: this town where nobody was in and he's doing very
- 1:31:40Speaker 1: well for himself. So I was telling people like, that's
- 1:31:43Speaker 1: what you should do. It's it's okay to buy those things,
- 1:31:45Speaker 1: but make sure your investment pays for that, so it
- 1:31:48Speaker 1: doesn't come out of your pocket, it doesn't come out
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: of something else. So anytime I want to buy anything
- 1:31:52Speaker 1: out there that I want to buy a car or
- 1:31:55Speaker 1: a crib or investment property, I try to make something
- 1:31:57Speaker 1: pay for that so it never comes out of my pocket.
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: Or in this era, and when I say this era,
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: I'm not even talking about you, from just talking about
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: this era of social media. You know, they would rather
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: look like they have money than actually have money. And
- 1:32:08Speaker 1: I'll say this, I am I am one of four
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: and I was on television, I was doing comedy specials,
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: I was doing work. My three siblings all bought property
- 1:32:19Speaker 1: before me, all three of it. They were more financially
- 1:32:23Speaker 1: literate that you just didn't know what to do with
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: your money. No, I just didn't have money. I had visibility.
- 1:32:29Speaker 1: They had a steady income, like my income was going
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: up and down. Thank God that I have a financial
- 1:32:35Speaker 1: advisor and I come from that world that I was
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: able to learn what to do with my money. But
- 1:32:40Speaker 1: they had they had a steady income. And I respect
- 1:32:43Speaker 1: people like that, and I always respect the working class
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: because we Instagram is Instagram is in gang your favorite
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: entertain to be lying, it's the truth and even more,
- 1:32:54Speaker 1: like you said, it's a matter of having the knowledge.
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: I was able to buy my first crib at twenty
- 1:32:58Speaker 1: two years old, so I've been I've been a homeowner
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: for a long time. But the reason I was, honestly
- 1:33:04Speaker 1: was because my dad was a police officer and he
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: was very mean in the crib and very military style,
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: and I was like, I gotta get out. But at
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: twenty two, I bought my first crib, and I had
- 1:33:11Speaker 1: to ask friends, like I didn't even know what to do,
- 1:33:14Speaker 1: and I called Buster Rams, and Buster Rams actually got
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: me the mortgage officer to get me my first out.
- 1:33:19Speaker 1: My interest rate was fifteen percent, but it was able
- 1:33:23Speaker 1: to get in my first crib. So I'll tell everybody
- 1:33:24Speaker 1: all the time, just look into things if you're looking
- 1:33:26Speaker 1: in for a crib. Fah loans. They're doing forty year
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: mortgages now to get your crib. And we'll talk more
- 1:33:31Speaker 1: when we come back to People's Choice Mixes up next

- 1:34:03Speaker 1: n V Car Show at gmail dot com. Let's go.
- 1:34:05Speaker 1: We got a special guest in the building who's came
- 1:34:07Speaker 1: out coming off of a winning knockout. Yes, she cour Stevenson.
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, it's good, it's good. It's good. I
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: feel great. Yeah, you had a great training count, and
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: we did everything were supposed to do, and everything showed
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: up on fight night. Yeah. I saw him say that
- 1:34:22Speaker 1: he didn't he didn't believe in your powers. So you
- 1:34:24Speaker 1: came in there with the intentional let me show this
- 1:34:26Speaker 1: guy how strong I am. Yeah, I love and somebody
- 1:34:28Speaker 1: said I can't do something, and he said I can't punch.
- 1:34:31Speaker 1: So my motivation was to show him. Instantly offered that
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: I could punch, and I sat in front of him,
- 1:34:38Speaker 1: man gave him the fight that he wanted to beat
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: him at that too. You know what I was thinking
- 1:34:41Speaker 1: about it as a fighter, right because I'm watching the
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: fight and it was the clear moment. That's why the
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: referee stopped like this, you can't do it all over that.
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: And when you when you're a boxer, you start pulling
- 1:34:51Speaker 1: your punches a little bit, knowing that you know this
- 1:34:53Speaker 1: guy is this vulnerable or do you just go harder? Nah,
- 1:34:56Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie. I had just called my second win,
- 1:34:59Speaker 1: so like the rev stopped it right in town because
- 1:35:02Speaker 1: I was really about to life start beating him up
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: even worse than what I was. Yeah, I told him
- 1:35:09Speaker 1: to let it go longer so I could really knock
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: him out. I want to get my fans like a
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: real knockout. I was hurting him every time I punched him,
- 1:35:16Speaker 1: so once I had to hit him clean again, he
- 1:35:18Speaker 1: was going out. Now do you think Devin Haney is
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: actually ducking you? I ain't. I ain't gonna get up
- 1:35:22Speaker 1: there in a line act like he's dunking me. I
- 1:35:24Speaker 1: don't think that he's dunking me in a fight, but
- 1:35:28Speaker 1: I think like with Devin, me and whom I know
- 1:35:30Speaker 1: Devin since a little kid, so like we've always been
- 1:35:34Speaker 1: one way class apart. So now that I'm going up
- 1:35:36Speaker 1: to thirty five nine times out of ten, it's only
- 1:35:39Speaker 1: right for him to go to one forty. So I
- 1:35:41Speaker 1: understand it. But we'll see how the world look at it.
- 1:35:44Speaker 1: You see, y'all used to spar a lot together. Sure
- 1:35:46Speaker 1: you said, used to clean him up. I heard you say, yeah,
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah. I feel like I always got the
- 1:35:51Speaker 1: better upper hand of the sparring. But I mean he's
- 1:35:54Speaker 1: back in the day. Yeah, So I know he looking
- 1:35:56Speaker 1: at it like he got better, and I feel as
- 1:35:58Speaker 1: though I got better. So when the fight happening, it's
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: gonna be amazing to see. Do you feel like that
- 1:36:03Speaker 1: they try to pick two great black fighters against each other,
- 1:36:05Speaker 1: because now it's they have to it's box. But but
- 1:36:08Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you why. But now it's everything's in record, right.
- 1:36:11Speaker 1: Boxing is at a place now where nobody wants to
- 1:36:13Speaker 1: lose in record. Nobody wants to take it l right.
- 1:36:15Speaker 1: Back in the day, if you lost the fight, If
- 1:36:17Speaker 1: you lost the fight, who cares you get back up
- 1:36:19Speaker 1: and do it. But now everybody wants that that undefeated record,
- 1:36:22Speaker 1: and both of you brothers are undefeated. Yeah now, but
- 1:36:25Speaker 1: you gotta look at it like this, though the top
- 1:36:28Speaker 1: athletes in our in our weight class is black. I
- 1:36:32Speaker 1: really think about it. Me team, we're all black. So
- 1:36:35Speaker 1: like they want to see the top people fight the
- 1:36:37Speaker 1: top people. I don't look at it like they want
- 1:36:40Speaker 1: to pin us against each other. Even if they do,
- 1:36:42Speaker 1: we don't got no choice but to really squabble because
- 1:36:45Speaker 1: at the end of the day, we're the top athletes.
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: The best, got to fight the best. Like I'm engaging
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: in that, like I want to fight the best. I
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: want to see who can get in the ring with
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: me and show me that I'm not who who I
- 1:36:56Speaker 1: say I am. Y'all have to. It's just like back
- 1:36:58Speaker 1: in the day when it was Sugar Ray, but losing
- 1:37:01Speaker 1: didn't matter. You lost then, y'all four to getting six
- 1:37:04Speaker 1: months from I don't think losing batters as much. Does
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: I don't think it does. It does. I don't think
- 1:37:08Speaker 1: it does. I think Floyd got your gas with that.
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: No no, I got the world gas with that. Oh
- 1:37:12Speaker 1: no no. But like in promotions, like in the companies
- 1:37:15Speaker 1: wants the fight to lose, it's like a full step back.
- 1:37:18Speaker 1: It's like they gotta fully start over instead of like
- 1:37:20Speaker 1: our Sugaray Leonard and them lost, they still as big
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: as they are. Like so I just think like it's
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: like a whole restart now at the lose. That's what
- 1:37:29Speaker 1: it depends when you are loss. Yeah, but he he
- 1:37:32Speaker 1: makes it. It's like, okay, all are defeated. Somebody got
- 1:37:42Speaker 1: to lose. You lose. Everything is going like you lose
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: and you're gonna lose endorsement, you're not gonna get that
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: paid as much all that it could be. Just you know,
- 1:37:49Speaker 1: it depends how you lose. Because I don't look at
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: Deonta Wild is no different. He's still a warrior to me.
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: Now he's a dog, you know what I mean. I
- 1:37:54Speaker 1: respect why. I think why the put everything on the line.
- 1:37:58Speaker 1: He just came up short against the better. But I
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: think while there's a dog, so it's pressure to stay
- 1:38:03Speaker 1: perfect and not for me, I don't look at it
- 1:38:06Speaker 1: that way because like honestly, I'm so confident in myself.
- 1:38:09Speaker 1: I don't think about losing. I don't think losing, not
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: enough back of my brain. I know I'm gonna win
- 1:38:13Speaker 1: when I getting there, So I ain't think about that.
- 1:38:15Speaker 1: But I get it, like I understand like the Floyd
- 1:38:18Speaker 1: ever of boxing, the Floyd error is like once you lose,
- 1:38:22Speaker 1: fighters got to like restarted, there's a whole decline in
- 1:38:25Speaker 1: their career instead of them just being the same fighter.
- 1:38:28Speaker 1: Only fighters that really get away with that is fighters
- 1:38:30Speaker 1: from other countries like Anthony Joshua or Canello. Just being
- 1:38:34Speaker 1: that he's a Mexican star. Anthony Johnson was interesting. Only
- 1:38:39Speaker 1: only reason I say he's interested because I just I've
- 1:38:41Speaker 1: never seen him fight. He's never He's never lost to
- 1:38:44Speaker 1: somebody I thought he should lose to. You know, if
- 1:38:46Speaker 1: he got in the ring with Fury and he lost,
- 1:38:48Speaker 1: I wouldn't look at it. I look at him way
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: different because of who he lost to. Yeah, you know
- 1:38:52Speaker 1: what I mean, Yeah about prior to that though, Yeah,
- 1:38:56Speaker 1: But I mean I think with him, it's more so
- 1:38:59Speaker 1: like I feel like, man, I know I gotta keep
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: it on. I think it's heart problems, like I think
- 1:39:05Speaker 1: he got like a little heart problems. Sometimes like him
- 1:39:07Speaker 1: going there like the little a guy. He's supposed to
- 1:39:09Speaker 1: impose its will and he didn't impose his will even
- 1:39:13Speaker 1: when I saw him last week I think it was
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: last week, maybe two weeks ago. Yeah, the same thing. Yeah,
- 1:39:17Speaker 1: like you, he's scared to like go in like yo
- 1:39:20Speaker 1: on this just god. Yeah. I mean he got potential though,
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: but you know, I think, um, big baby, Big Baby
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: is one of the new heavyweights that's gonna take over
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: a boxing really. Yeah, when I was on my undercar,
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: so when when you have to go to another weight class,
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: what's the prep that you gotta do to get to
- 1:39:41Speaker 1: that weight class? Honestly, this this time around, it was
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: just so much easier to make way. I didn't have
- 1:39:47Speaker 1: to work as hard on fight week. I say some
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: of my energy. I felt way better at one thirty
- 1:39:52Speaker 1: five than I felt at one thirty So a lot
- 1:39:55Speaker 1: of people wanted to see how it was going. Phil.
- 1:39:58Speaker 1: I think I displayed powers. I displayed everything on Saturday.
- 1:40:03Speaker 1: You did? You did misweight once right when w y yep?
- 1:40:08Speaker 1: What does that even mean? And like and how did
- 1:40:09Speaker 1: that affect you as a fighter? I mean it was
- 1:40:12Speaker 1: more so just embarrassing, like it was embarrassment, But you
- 1:40:15Speaker 1: gotta take the embarrassment with all the good stuff that come.
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: But for people that don't know, So what happened. I
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: went to my fight in on North, my last fight
- 1:40:23Speaker 1: before this fight, and I lost my titles. On the
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: scale I had came in over I want to say
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: one point eight pounds. There was one point eight pounds over. Yeah, bro,
- 1:40:34Speaker 1: you can pee. You can't go. Let me go pe
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: for a second now you I couldn't because you gotta
- 1:40:37Speaker 1: realized I'm dehydrated. So now I'm so dehydrated. Ain't no
- 1:40:40Speaker 1: more war than my body. I'm not sweating, Ain't nothing
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: coming out of my body for me to even lose
- 1:40:46Speaker 1: any weight. So I just you know, took it on
- 1:40:49Speaker 1: the chain and make sure I won that night. Does
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: that Uh? Is that really an advantage? Being like one
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: pound overweight at one point a pound that? I think
- 1:40:57Speaker 1: it's a disadvantage, honestly, because I feel like if I
- 1:41:02Speaker 1: fight a fighter and they come and overweight and that
- 1:41:06Speaker 1: just showed how much shape, and I feel like I
- 1:41:08Speaker 1: feel like they probably out of shaping. I'm in better shape.
- 1:41:10Speaker 1: So I think it's a disadvantage. That's how I look
- 1:41:12Speaker 1: at it. I think my disfight. I came in on weight.
- 1:41:16Speaker 1: My weight was lower than it was my last fight
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: that one thirty and I was fighting at one thirty five.
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: So I think it's a disadvantage. Well, ladies and gentlemen
- 1:41:25Speaker 1: should cost appreciate you for joining us, Appreciate your luck
- 1:41:28Speaker 1: the next fight. Thank you? And when when when you
- 1:41:30Speaker 1: think you'll get in a response from Devon if any?

- 1:41:38Speaker 1: y'all spoke now we ain't speaking, Yo, It's crazy. We
- 1:41:41Speaker 1: used to be real cool, like well we was cool,
- 1:41:44Speaker 1: probably not too long ago. Jumped up to his weight class. Yeah,
- 1:41:47Speaker 1: now it's competitionous, like forget everybody. We'll see I don't

- 1:43:36Speaker 1: scouring the internet going through a lot of her amazing quotes.
- 1:43:40Speaker 1: It really really bothers me that, you know, Jazz didn't
- 1:43:42Speaker 1: get to write her own book before she passed. She
- 1:43:45Speaker 1: wrote other people's books, but not her own. But Jazz posted.
- 1:43:48Speaker 1: Identify people that are where you want to be. Didn't
- 1:43:51Speaker 1: pay attention to what they consume. They're usually all active
- 1:43:54Speaker 1: growers consuming things that will make them better. Distractions are
- 1:43:58Speaker 1: cool and small doses, but they never lose sight. Of
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: their goals, start employing that kind of discipline. Rest in peace,
- 1:44:05Speaker 1: Jasmine breakfast club bitches you, I'll finish it, y'all. Dune
