- 0:49Speaker 4: I ain't mad at you.
- 0:50Speaker 2: You got to start embracing it like it's the holiday
- 0:52Speaker 2: season now. That's the only way to extend it.
- 0:55Speaker 1: Yes.
- 0:56Speaker 4: You know?
- 0:56Speaker 6: They're going to put the lights on my house, I think,
- 0:58Speaker 6: next week. I'm not going to turn them on. No, no,
- 1:02Speaker 6: the guys, they're offering a nice discount if they can
- 1:05Speaker 6: get them up early before it's too cold.
- 1:07Speaker 4: Let them put them up.
- 1:07Speaker 2: See, that's y'all's problem. Y'all don't like to enjoy the moment.
- 1:10Speaker 2: I didn't say I was going to turn them on.
- 1:12Speaker 4: I'm just saying Halloween is in, what, 25 days? You
- 1:15Speaker 4: know what I mean?
- 1:16Speaker 2: And then you got those days up until Thanksgiving.
- 1:20Speaker 4: Then after Thanksgiving, you get into the Christmas spirit.
- 1:23Speaker 6: Nah, well, I'm putting lights up now. I ain't going
- 1:24Speaker 6: to turn them on until after Christmas. I think I'm
- 1:26Speaker 6: going to turn it on after Thanksgiving, after Halloween.
- 1:28Speaker 7: After Thanksgiving?
- 1:29Speaker 5: After Halloween.
- 1:30Speaker 1: After Halloween.
- 1:30Speaker 4: I just like the way it looks. It makes me
- 1:31Speaker 4: feel like Disney. I just like it. That's just me.
- 1:33Speaker 4: I like it. That's ridiculous. That's too early. That's way
- 1:36Speaker 4: too early. Right after Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving, what, 25th? Yes, 25th
- 1:39Speaker 4: of every year. Christmas lights go off. Yeah, mine is
- 1:41Speaker 4: going up, I think, November 1st. Hey, Christmas lights should
- 1:44Speaker 4: go off the 26th.
- 1:45Speaker 2: I think Christmas decorations in the house, probably December 1st.
- 1:49Speaker 4: Okay.
- 1:50Speaker 2: I think that's good. It's a good time. It gives
- 1:52Speaker 2: us all the time to enjoy everything.
- 1:54Speaker 4: All right. And the Jehovah Witness in me don't like
- 1:56Speaker 4: none of it. You just don't like giving gifts. But
- 1:59Speaker 4: I love it, though.
- 2:00Speaker 5: It's fun.
- 2:00Speaker 4: It's weird. It's weird because I didn't grow up doing it.
- 2:03Speaker 4: But you enjoy giving to other people. But I enjoy
- 2:04Speaker 4: it with the family. Yes, I get that. My wife's
- 2:07Speaker 4: not a Jehovah Witness. The kids are not, but that's
- 2:09Speaker 4: how I was raised.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Gotcha.
- 2:10Speaker 4: You know, but I love it. Life is so crazy.
- 2:14Speaker 4: All right. Well, after the show today, I'm heading out
- 2:16Speaker 4: to China. What you mean? I'm heading to China. Like China, China?
- 2:22Speaker 4: How many China and China's in there? Yeah, China and
- 2:24Speaker 4: the country.
- 2:24Speaker 1: For what?
- 2:25Speaker 4: The NBA goes there. They have a game. They do
- 2:27Speaker 4: a game every year. So this year is the Mavericks
- 2:29Speaker 4: versus the Rockets.
- 2:31Speaker 1: Okay.
- 2:31Speaker 4: So what are you doing out there?
- 2:33Speaker 3: DJing?
- 2:34Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm DJing, hosting, doing a bunch of stuff with
- 2:36Speaker 4: the NBA. That's dope.
- 2:37Speaker 6: It's pretty dope. I did it last year, too, so
- 2:39Speaker 6: this year. So this year, I'm actually going to try
- 2:41Speaker 6: to broadcast from there.
- 2:42Speaker 4: So hopefully it works. For what?
- 2:44Speaker 5: What do you mean, for what?
- 2:45Speaker 8: Why?
- 2:46Speaker 2: I think it'd be cool. What's the time difference? What
- 2:48Speaker 2: time is it in China right now?
- 2:49Speaker 4: It'd be 6 p.m.
- 2:49Speaker 1: 6 a.m.

- 5:09Speaker 7: I was listening to the gospel this morning.
- 5:11Speaker 1: That's what's up.
- 5:11Speaker 4: All right.
- 5:12Speaker 6: Well, let's start off with some sports. Now, White Sox
- 5:14Speaker 6: beat the Guardians last night. They lead that series 2-0.

- 5:19Speaker 6: that series 2-0.
- 5:20Speaker 4: Now, Monday Night Football! Atlanta Falcons beat the Saints 45-24.
- 5:24Speaker 7: 45?
- 5:24Speaker 4: Any of y'all see the game? Nah, I ain't see
- 5:29Speaker 4: the game either. What's up, Mimi?
- 5:31Speaker 11: Good morning, Envy, Jess, Charlamagne. How y'all doing this morning? Hey, we're...
- 5:36Speaker 11: Good morning.
- 5:36Speaker 12: Front Page News is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan, America's
- 5:40Speaker 12: largest injury law firm.
- 5:41Speaker 11: So we start this.
- 5:42Speaker 12: Morning with President Trump facing backlash over comments he made
- 5:46Speaker 12: about Los Angeles and San Diego. So Trump was at
- 5:50Speaker 12: a campaign rally last night talking about the rising diesel fuel,
- 5:54Speaker 12: gas prices, and because of the war with Iran. He
- 5:59Speaker 12: argued that those prices are a small price to pay
- 6:02Speaker 12: to keep the country safe, and then he took it
- 6:04Speaker 12: a step further.
- 6:05Speaker 11: Let's listen.
- 6:06Speaker 1: And again, remember, with the war, it's just artificial.
- 6:09Speaker 13: It's a little bit high. It's a small price to
- 6:11Speaker 13: pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe.
- 6:14Speaker 1: They can take out a city.
- 6:16Speaker 13: Let them take out Los Angeles.
- 6:19Speaker 1: Let them take out San Diego.
- 6:22Speaker 13: This is a very small price to pay, and it's
- 6:25Speaker 13: going to be over with very soon.
- 6:27Speaker 1: It's essentially almost over with.
- 6:29Speaker 8: What?
- 6:32Speaker 14: Well, yep.
- 6:33Speaker 12: As you might imagine, California leaders, including Governor Gavin Newsom,
- 6:37Speaker 12: they were upset.
- 6:38Speaker 11: He called the president deranged and dangerous.
- 6:40Speaker 12: Even San Diego's mayor said his city is not collateral
- 6:43Speaker 12: damage and not expendable.
- 6:45Speaker 11: So right now, also.
- 6:47Speaker 12: There is no public evidence that Iran has the ability
- 6:49Speaker 12: to launch a missile on either city. But he's getting
- 6:53Speaker 12: a lot of pushback for even suggesting that during his
- 6:56Speaker 12: campaign speech.
- 6:57Speaker 2: There should never be a scenario where the president stands
- 7:00Speaker 2: in front of Americans and casually describes, you know, an
- 7:02Speaker 2: American city being destroyed. by a foreign enemy is a
- 7:05Speaker 2: small price to pay. I can't even believe I have
- 7:07Speaker 2: to say that on the radio this morning, but here
- 7:09Speaker 2: we are.
- 7:10Speaker 4: All right.
- 7:11Speaker 2: And by the way, I don't care, you know, whether
- 7:12Speaker 2: that city voted for you. I don't care whether you
- 7:14Speaker 2: were joking. I don't care whether you're speaking hypothetically. Your
- 7:16Speaker 2: job is to protect Americans, period. And I don't even
- 7:19Speaker 2: like people who say things. Well, he's only saying that
- 7:21Speaker 2: because they're democratic cities. No, the reality is Donald Trump
- 7:23Speaker 2: don't care about none of y'all.
- 7:25Speaker 4: That's crazy. Just take out LA, San Diego. It's a
- 7:28Speaker 4: small price to pay. We'd be all right. Donald Trump
- 7:30Speaker 4: don't care about America, period.
- 7:33Speaker 1: Okay. All right.
- 7:35Speaker 11: Oh, right now.
- 7:36Speaker 1: Crazy.
- 7:36Speaker 12: I mean, in the middle of this fight over the
- 7:39Speaker 12: midterm elections, President Trump is taking on another fight, whether
- 7:43Speaker 12: we should still be changing our clocks twice a year.
- 7:46Speaker 12: So the end of daylight saving time is less than
- 7:49Speaker 12: a month away. Most Americans are scheduled to turn their
- 7:52Speaker 12: clocks back one hour on November 1st. But Trump wants
- 7:56Speaker 12: to stop changing the clocks altogether and keep daylight savings
- 7:59Speaker 12: time year round. So the House passed a bill last
- 8:03Speaker 12: July with the support of both parties, but it stalled
- 8:06Speaker 12: in the Senate. And now Trump is putting pressure on
- 8:09Speaker 12: one Republican senator standing in the way. So over the weekend,
- 8:12Speaker 12: Trump posted Senator Tom Cotton's personal phone number to social media,
- 8:17Speaker 12: telling his millions of followers to call him and demand
- 8:20Speaker 12: he support the bill.
- 8:22Speaker 11: He was asked about it on his way to board
- 8:25Speaker 11: Air Force One. Let's listen to that.
- 8:27Speaker 13: We want to get away from this ridiculous way and
- 8:30Speaker 13: custom of every twice a year, turning your clocks back,
- 8:35Speaker 13: turning your clocks forward, being late for dinner, being late
- 8:39Speaker 13: for very important meetings. It's ridiculous. And if you look
- 8:42Speaker 13: at the public, they agree. That's a 100% issue.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Tom Cotton's holding it up.
- 8:48Speaker 13: You know who wants it?
- 8:48Speaker 1: The farmers want it.
- 8:49Speaker 5: You know who wants it?
- 8:51Speaker 1: Sports want it.
- 8:53Speaker 9: Yo, he is a clown. Like for putting the guy's
- 8:56Speaker 9: number out there.
- 8:57Speaker 11: Put his number right out there.
- 8:59Speaker 4: What?
- 8:59Speaker 7: That's not how you do it.
- 9:00Speaker 14: Like, what?
- 9:01Speaker 2: I don't even care about daylight savings time. Like, how
- 9:03Speaker 2: is that going to make gas prices come down? How
- 9:05Speaker 2: is that going to make food more affordable and more healthy?
- 9:08Speaker 2: How is that going to make healthcare prices, you know,
- 9:10Speaker 2: more affordable?
- 9:11Speaker 4: I don't care. Just tell me what time it is.
- 9:12Speaker 4: I'll set my clock. I'll be okay. The iPhone does
- 9:15Speaker 4: it for you automatically. I don't care about daylight savings time.
- 9:17Speaker 4: It don't matter.
- 9:21Speaker 7: Exactly.
- 9:22Speaker 12: And that is that is the sentiment today. Like, why
- 9:25Speaker 12: are we talking about this in the middle of, you know,
- 9:28Speaker 12: as we get ready for midterm elections? We're 28 days away.
- 9:31Speaker 12: But this is a topic that you're choosing to to
- 9:33Speaker 12: take on. So Trump says, again, he would rather have
- 9:37Speaker 12: more daylight at the end of the day. Cotton says
- 9:39Speaker 12: he would rather have it at night. I mean, back
- 9:41Speaker 12: and forth over this, which makes no sense. But again,
- 9:44Speaker 12: for now. Unless Congress acts, we will still turn our
- 9:47Speaker 12: clocks back on November 1st.
- 9:49Speaker 11: So that's where we are.
- 9:49Speaker 2: I have a lot of conversations throughout the day with
- 9:52Speaker 2: a lot of people and nobody's ever come up to
- 9:54Speaker 2: me talking about daylight.
- 9:55Speaker 5: Savings time. Not at all.
- 9:57Speaker 4: And whether we should move the clock back or forward,
- 9:58Speaker 4: like that's never been a thing. How about I don't
- 10:00Speaker 4: even think about it. Like I said, the iPhone does
- 10:02Speaker 4: it for me and it just keeps it moving.
- 10:04Speaker 7: Whatever.
- 10:04Speaker 11: It keeps it moving.
- 10:07Speaker 1: All right, y'all.
- 10:07Speaker 12: Well, this hour is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan. Injured,

- 11:15Speaker 4: I also do want to say that people be babying
- 11:18Speaker 4: Jalen Hurts out here in the city of Philadelphia.
- 11:20Speaker 2: They be acting like you can't say nothing bad at
- 11:22Speaker 2: all about Jalen Hurts.
- 11:23Speaker 3: Because he's a black man and he's a black quarterback.
- 11:26Speaker 8: But Jalen Hurts is ass. He is cheeks.
- 11:29Speaker 1: He threw for under 100 yards, bro.
- 11:32Speaker 2: I don't want to hear nothing about Jalen Hurts being
- 11:35Speaker 2: elite anymore.
- 11:36Speaker 3: We have got to stop that.
- 11:38Speaker 4: He not ass, though. He left Philly to a Super Bowl.
- 11:40Speaker 4: He not ass. He definitely not ass. And Trav, you
- 11:42Speaker 4: from Philly. What's wrong with you?

- 13:11Speaker 4: He ain't lying.
- 13:12Speaker 7: He probably lying. Trudeau, no.
- 13:14Speaker 1: I'm dead serious. Damn.
- 13:17Speaker 4: This guy's foul. My man said he was down. He
- 13:19Speaker 4: had to say that right.
- 13:21Speaker 1: I did.
- 13:21Speaker 4: She just stared at me like, I'm like, all right, man.
- 13:24Speaker 7: And he probably played the weakest one.
- 13:26Speaker 1: Like on purpose.
- 13:28Speaker 4: That's the record you sing. You say it's Bacardi. Hello,
- 13:31Speaker 4: who's this?
- 13:31Speaker 8: Good morning, this is Jimmy from the BX.
- 13:33Speaker 4: He's Jimmy from the BX.
- 13:34Speaker 7: What's the matter with you, Jimmy?
- 13:36Speaker 4: What happened? I said you so aggressive this morning.
- 13:39Speaker 2: Good morning.
- 13:39Speaker 8: Oh, now I'm aggressive on my nighttime work. Baby, you know,
- 13:42Speaker 8: local 202. Okay, all right.
- 13:44Speaker 4: What's happening, my brother?
- 13:45Speaker 8: Okay, I just don't think we should have gave DaVinci
- 13:49Speaker 8: the dunk the other day. He's talking about his own experience.
- 13:51Speaker 8: And I think DJ Henry was saying it yesterday. You know,
- 13:54Speaker 8: we in the hood, Caribbean people, work a little harder than,
- 13:59Speaker 8: you know, most blacks. He's not speaking nothing but facts.
- 14:04Speaker 8: Like I said, I'm a local 202. Listen, I'm a
- 14:06Speaker 8: local 202. I try to put these young guys on
- 14:09Speaker 8: to jobs. And none of them want to come to work.
- 14:11Speaker 8: All they want is just free handouts.
- 14:13Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think that we forget when somebody's having
- 14:15Speaker 2: a conversation, they're not just saying one thing.
- 14:17Speaker 4: Like, you know, that's the problem.
- 14:19Speaker 2: Like, either people agree with one part of something somebody
- 14:22Speaker 2: said or disagree with the other part.
- 14:24Speaker 4: The part that I was talking about yesterday.
- 14:26Speaker 8: No, but also two things could be true at the
- 14:28Speaker 8: same time.
- 14:29Speaker 4: Yes, can I finish, though? But I said the other
- 14:30Speaker 4: part that I was talking about. I apologize.
- 14:32Speaker 2: When he said that we need to move on from slavery,
- 14:35Speaker 2: that's what I was talking about yesterday.
- 14:37Speaker 8: Oh, yeah, no, I got you. Now, I absolutely agree
- 14:39Speaker 8: with Decker. You know, we got the Jewish Holocaust. You know,
- 14:42Speaker 8: we got that.
- 14:43Speaker 5: So I think, yeah, that.
- 14:43Speaker 4: Still should be, you know. Until you never forget. Never forget, exactly.
- 14:48Speaker 8: No, I think, yeah, I definitely agree he was wrong.
- 14:50Speaker 8: But like I said, I've been at my job, thank God,
- 14:53Speaker 8: 22 years. Local 202, you know, I got some health benefits,
- 14:58Speaker 8: you know. At the end, you know, I got a pension.
- 15:00Speaker 8: Like I said, I try to put these young brothers on.
- 15:02Speaker 5: And, you know, all they want is their gifts, their money.
- 15:05Speaker 4: Local 202.
- 15:06Speaker 8: They're not even thinking about the future.
- 15:07Speaker 4: What is Local 202?
- 15:08Speaker 5: Well, we work for.
- 15:09Speaker 8: The produce section.
- 15:10Speaker 4: That's the union.
- 15:11Speaker 8: The union's the local.
- 15:12Speaker 3: The local union.
- 15:12Speaker 4: Oh, okay, okay. Well, you have a good one, brother.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Yeah, we.
- 15:15Speaker 4: All right, you too.
- 15:16Speaker 8: Thanks a lot for, you know, hearing me out.
- 15:17Speaker 1: All right, brother.
- 15:18Speaker 4: Yeah, they got unions like that in South Carolina. Like,
- 15:20Speaker 4: they have the... Sometimes you see them protesting like they
- 15:23Speaker 4: got the big rat outside.
- 15:24Speaker 1: It'll be like the union, whatever, whatever.
- 15:25Speaker 4: Yeah, but they call them unions. I don't know what local...
- 15:27Speaker 4: I don't know what the number is.
- 15:28Speaker 6: Oh, they call it local, whatever the number is.
- 15:30Speaker 4: Get it off your chest.
- 15:32Speaker 15: 800-585-1051.
- 15:32Speaker 4: If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's
- 15:33Speaker 4: The Breakfast Club.

- 15:44Speaker 5: We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
- 15:45Speaker 7: We can get on the phone right now.
- 15:47Speaker 1: He'll tell you what it is.
- 15:48Speaker 8: Are we live?
- 15:49Speaker 10: Good morning.
- 15:50Speaker 4: How you doing this morning? What's your name?
- 15:51Speaker 9: I'm good. I'm Kiara.
- 15:52Speaker 10: I'm calling from Tulsa.
- 15:54Speaker 4: 843, what's happening?
- 15:56Speaker 7: Good morning.
- 15:56Speaker 4: Good morning.
- 15:57Speaker 10: You already know I'm good, Charlotte.
- 15:59Speaker 1: Hi, Jess.
- 15:59Speaker 7: You look so.
- 16:00Speaker 10: Beautiful every day, but you look beautiful today.
- 16:02Speaker 7: My girl. Thank you, love. I appreciate that.
- 16:05Speaker 4: How the bunkies out in South Carolina?
- 16:07Speaker 3: Yo.
- 16:10Speaker 10: You always want to know something about some Buki, man.
- 16:13Speaker 13: Yes.
- 16:13Speaker 10: Buki's just Buki-ing out here.
- 16:15Speaker 4: You like Buki, especially man Buki.
- 16:17Speaker 1: No, no, no.
- 16:18Speaker 4: Buki be Buki-ing out there.
- 16:19Speaker 10: That's that light skin stuff.
- 16:20Speaker 8: You already know.
- 16:21Speaker 1: You already know.
- 16:22Speaker 4: I've been practicing my Gichu. You have to have it
- 16:24Speaker 4: to box somebody in a moment.
- 16:27Speaker 7: Oh, no, you sound bad.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Oh, damn.
- 16:29Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
- 16:30Speaker 10: All right, let me get it off my chest, for real.
- 16:32Speaker 10: I just want to say that it is so many
- 16:35Speaker 10: mothers that are... killing their kids these days and it
- 16:41Speaker 10: is getting out of control. I'm in school right now
- 16:43Speaker 10: for psychology so we're in the phase of learning about
- 16:46Speaker 10: self and self-control, self-awareness, and things like that. So I
- 16:51Speaker 10: just would like to say any mother that may feel
- 16:54Speaker 10: like she's going through it or doesn't have somebody to
- 16:57Speaker 10: count on or lean on, there's so many resources out here.
- 17:01Speaker 10: There's so many people that you can just have a
- 17:03Speaker 10: simple conversation with. And if there's somebody that's willing to
- 17:07Speaker 10: take the kids, just give them a better life. Let
- 17:10Speaker 10: them live a life that you feel like you didn't
- 17:13Speaker 10: get a chance to live.
- 17:14Speaker 4: I agree.
- 17:14Speaker 1: And love on your kids.
- 17:17Speaker 10: Do whatever you can for your kids.
- 17:19Speaker 1: Advocate for your kids.
- 17:20Speaker 10: Do anything in your willpower that you can to make
- 17:23Speaker 10: sure that they have an amazing life.
- 17:25Speaker 4: I agree with you wholeheartedly.
- 17:28Speaker 10: Yeah, it just happened maybe like last week on Monday here.
- 17:32Speaker 10: Mom killed two of her daughters after 36 visits to
- 17:36Speaker 10: her house between DSS, police. Like, I don't understand how
- 17:40Speaker 10: they were even still in her custody, so... Just please
- 17:45Speaker 10: stop doing stuff.
- 17:46Speaker 11: To these kids, y'all.
- 17:48Speaker 1: You right.
- 17:48Speaker 4: I agree. Well, thank you, Kiara.
- 17:50Speaker 11: Thank you.
- 17:50Speaker 7: Y'all have a good day.
- 17:51Speaker 2: Peace.
- 17:52Speaker 6: And like Kiara said, if you're having a problem with
- 17:54Speaker 6: your child or you're feeling anything, please take your child
- 17:58Speaker 6: to a police department, take her to the hospital, take
- 18:01Speaker 6: her to a fire department, take her to a neighbor's house, please.
- 18:04Speaker 9: Yeah, but haven't y'all been saying, like, more of those
- 18:06Speaker 9: types of stories? Well, I don't know how your algorithm's
- 18:10Speaker 9: set up, but, like, I have. I've been seeing it
- 18:12Speaker 9: not only on TikTok, but on, I mean, not on TikTok, Instagram,
- 18:15Speaker 9: but YouTube. Like it's starting to, the more you scroll,
- 18:18Speaker 9: you see more stories like women.
- 18:20Speaker 7: I mean, mothers are killing their children.
- 18:22Speaker 4: That's how the algorithm works.
- 18:24Speaker 1: Okay.
- 18:24Speaker 7: I'm just saying, I've been saying a lot more, more
- 18:26Speaker 7: of it lately. And it's just sad. I haven't seen
- 18:29Speaker 7: it back to back. Like every other day I'm saying it.
- 18:31Speaker 4: Recent. Well, get it off your chest.
- 18:33Speaker 1: 800-585-1051.
- 18:33Speaker 4: Hey, LL Cool Bay. Good morning, y'all.
- 18:35Speaker 7: When we come back, we got.
- 18:37Speaker 4: The latest with Laurence.
- 18:38Speaker 6: She's straight from the Knicks in Philadelphia game where LeBron
- 18:41Speaker 6: did not play.
- 18:42Speaker 4: No, he didn't.
- 18:43Speaker 7: He was there, though.
- 18:44Speaker 4: You say he got arthritis in his foot and some
- 18:46Speaker 4: other issue that I'm sure happened when you were 40
- 18:48Speaker 4: plus years old.
- 18:49Speaker 7: I was about to say, that sounds like just like
- 18:50Speaker 7: a cold at his age. But even... Jalen Brown got busy.
- 18:53Speaker 1: He did.
- 18:54Speaker 7: Arthritis in the feet is bad. I saw Kat as well, too.
- 18:56Speaker 7: But I didn't expect LeBron to play yesterday.
- 18:58Speaker 4: I didn't think so, either.
- 18:59Speaker 7: Yeah, I just, you know.
- 19:00Speaker 4: I'm surprised Jalen Brown played that long.
- 19:01Speaker 7: Yeah, and he was out there balling, too. But it
- 19:04Speaker 7: was just a lot of people there. The energy is
- 19:05Speaker 7: really good right now. So it was fun to go
- 19:07Speaker 7: and experience.
- 19:08Speaker 4: So are you a 76ers fan now?
- 19:10Speaker 7: I'm not a 76ers fan. I don't have a team.
- 19:12Speaker 7: But that has always been the team because I'm from Delaware.
- 19:15Speaker 7: And my man's from Philly. So he's like a huge
- 19:18Speaker 7: 76ers Eagles fan. So now, yeah, we're doing the thing.
- 19:22Speaker 4: You got some good tickets, too.
- 19:24Speaker 7: Envy, I'm from Delaware.
- 19:25Speaker 4: We ride the street.
- 19:25Speaker 1: I know people.
- 19:26Speaker 4: First of all, it's a preseason game. You right.
- 19:28Speaker 1: Come on, yo.
- 19:29Speaker 8: Now, listen.
- 19:30Speaker 7: This is the type of year for the Sixers.
- 19:32Speaker 3: You set your heights for the full season in the beginning.
- 19:35Speaker 7: She was second row. Let's see when the season starts.
- 19:38Speaker 3: Shout out to Rob Nicholson, one of my homies.
- 19:41Speaker 4: He does all the VIP experiences.
- 19:44Speaker 7: For the Sixers.
- 19:50Speaker 1: All that changes in the regular season.
- 19:53Speaker 7: You got to know people.
- 19:54Speaker 1: I said, look along.
- 19:56Speaker 4: I'm here for this.
- 19:58Speaker 3: I won't say no.
- 20:01Speaker 7: No, no, no. Here's what I will say. You be
- 20:04Speaker 7: out late and then go home and get up to
- 20:06Speaker 7: come here this morning. I was like, yeah, I don't
- 20:07Speaker 7: know how many times I could.
- 20:08Speaker 4: Oh, now you don't want to go to North Carolina.
- 20:10Speaker 3: They got to wait until they come here. When the
- 20:12Speaker 3: Sixers come here, I got you. But no, the 20th, I'm.
- 20:15Speaker 1: There, though. The Sixers come here? All right, so the
- 20:17Speaker 1: first game.
- 20:18Speaker 4: You going?
- 20:18Speaker 7: Yeah, the real game.
- 20:20Speaker 4: You talking about the 20th? I want to go to
- 20:22Speaker 4: that one, yes. She said she wants to go. You're
- 20:25Speaker 4: not going to be courtside that one.
- 20:27Speaker 7: No, it's not in our course.
- 20:28Speaker 4: That's the night the Knicks get their rings, too. You
- 20:31Speaker 4: never know, yo.
- 20:31Speaker 7: When we first, no, girl. They bought them seats out
- 20:34Speaker 7: way early on.
- 20:35Speaker 4: Knicks get their ring that night, too.
- 20:36Speaker 7: But we'll be in the building. We'll be situated.
- 20:37Speaker 1: Period.
- 20:38Speaker 7: That's all that matters.
- 20:39Speaker 8: Period.
- 20:40Speaker 4: I'll be there that game, too.
- 20:40Speaker 7: You are such a hater. You find anything.
- 20:42Speaker 4: Both of them, yo.
- 20:43Speaker 7: Both of them.
- 20:44Speaker 3: No, I'm trying to give her props. I said she
- 20:45Speaker 3: was close. He went to bed last.
- 20:46Speaker 7: Night like, ooh, I got something.
- 20:49Speaker 1: I know it.
- 20:50Speaker 3: I know it.
- 20:50Speaker 1: All right.
- 20:51Speaker 4: The ladies alone. What are we talking about?
- 20:52Speaker 7: Yeah, we're going to be talking about... We're going to
- 20:54Speaker 7: talk about Jamie Foxx. He's talking about cutting back jokes
- 20:57Speaker 7: and taking jokes out of specials and things he's not
- 20:59Speaker 7: doing on stage because of the Kevin Hart rose.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Wow.
- 21:01Speaker 7: Yeah, we're going to talk about it.
- 21:02Speaker 4: All right, we'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 21:04Speaker 1: Good morning. What, what, what, what you want to know?
- 21:07Speaker 5: The latest with Lauren LaRosa.
- 21:09Speaker 1: Because you particularly are bringing the energy to mainstream radio,
- 21:12Speaker 1: the black radio.
- 21:13Speaker 4: That source is trusted. Did you hear that exclusive?
- 21:15Speaker 7: Lauren, I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about
- 21:17Speaker 7: everything and everything.
- 21:19Speaker 4: She be having the latest on things.
- 21:20Speaker 7: You ask the questions that need to be answered.
- 21:22Speaker 5: On The Breakfast Club.
- 21:24Speaker 7: If little brown girls look at you and go, I
- 21:25Speaker 7: want to be like you.
- 21:26Speaker 4: LL Cool B.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Talk to me. Talk to me.
- 21:29Speaker 7: Good morning, guys.
- 21:30Speaker 4: Good morning. LL Cool Bay.
- 21:32Speaker 1: Yes.
- 21:33Speaker 7: OK, so let's get into this conversation that Jamie Foxx
- 21:36Speaker 7: had with The Hollywood Reporter. He's everywhere right now reporting
- 21:40Speaker 7: his reporting, promoting his special Take Care of Yourself, which
- 21:44Speaker 7: is premiering tomorrow, October 7th on Hulu. Now, he sat
- 21:48Speaker 7: down for the conversation and he talks about the fact
- 21:50Speaker 7: that he actually cut some jokes from his act after.
- 21:54Speaker 7: Seeing the reaction to the Kevin Hart roast, let's take
- 21:55Speaker 7: a listen. Halle Berry segment.
- 21:58Speaker 1: Oh, man.
- 21:58Speaker 3: You joked that you were going to cut it.
- 21:59Speaker 7: You didn't, of course. But was there anything that you
- 22:02Speaker 7: did cut from the special or any jokes?
- 22:03Speaker 1: I lied.
- 22:04Speaker 7: Okay.
- 22:05Speaker 4: After the roast, I had to cut everything. After that
- 22:08Speaker 4: Kevin Hart roast, I cut all that.
- 22:10Speaker 1: Why?
- 22:10Speaker 16: People became too sensitive. And the roast was whatever you
- 22:15Speaker 16: thought it was. But when they take the jokes so personally,
- 22:20Speaker 16: and it is personal. I didn't like it.
- 22:23Speaker 4: The George Floyd at all.
- 22:24Speaker 1: Okay.
- 22:25Speaker 16: But when you see people respond to certain things, you're like, okay, man,
- 22:28Speaker 16: maybe we need to tuck that away because I still
- 22:30Speaker 16: want to be able to keep it refreshed.
- 22:32Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
- 22:32Speaker 16: I don't want to like bend anybody into a pretzel
- 22:35Speaker 16: and stuff like this.
- 22:36Speaker 4: So it definitely makes you, you know.
- 22:37Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 22:38Speaker 4: I wonder what jokes did he cut. I mean, what
- 22:40Speaker 4: was the material?
- 22:41Speaker 2: Because the only joke that really, really, really received backlash
- 22:44Speaker 2: from the roast was the George Floyd joke.
- 22:46Speaker 4: I mean, other jokes people might have been uncomfortable about.
- 22:49Speaker 5: Personally upset about.
- 22:50Speaker 4: George Floyd joke was the one that he called backlash, backlash.
- 22:53Speaker 7: That was the one for sure, but people had.
- 22:54Speaker 3: So Jamie had George Floyd jokes or something?
- 22:57Speaker 7: Well, he said he didn't like that joke, so... That's
- 22:59Speaker 7: what I'm going to do. I don't know, because I
- 23:02Speaker 7: feel like people had conversation about the suicide stuff, but
- 23:05Speaker 7: Sean Underwood was like, we talked about this before I
- 23:07Speaker 7: was good. To me, I feel like there was a
- 23:09Speaker 7: sensitivity reset that he feels like happened. But I'm like, dang,
- 23:13Speaker 7: I don't know if I like that.
- 23:14Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good point, too, because the only other
- 23:16Speaker 2: jokes other than the George Floyd that people were upset.
- 23:18Speaker 4: It was suicide, lynching. But those are personal to... Cheryl Underwood.
- 23:22Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 23:23Speaker 4: Or even Pete Davidson with his father. Those are personal
- 23:25Speaker 4: things towards them.
- 23:26Speaker 7: Yeah. Now, he also talks about not wanting to go
- 23:29Speaker 7: and do any podcasts, including Club Shea Shea and Wireless.
- 23:32Speaker 7: Take a listen. You also got Shannon Sharp, of course.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Oh, come on now, Kat.
- 23:36Speaker 4: Kat.
- 23:37Speaker 1: See, Kat.
- 23:38Speaker 4: There's some things, Kat.
- 23:39Speaker 16: I need to ask you some things that to Mimi
- 23:43Speaker 16: and Ochoa.
- 23:44Speaker 4: You know, we sincerely ask.
- 23:45Speaker 16: You know, my grandmother said, sometimes, you know, you think
- 23:48Speaker 16: I eat paper and money.
- 23:49Speaker 5: You know, that's the thing, yeah.
- 23:51Speaker 1: Has he invited you on Club Shazam?
- 23:53Speaker 3: I don't want.
- 23:53Speaker 4: To do no podcast.
- 23:54Speaker 1: Really?
- 23:55Speaker 7: Why?
- 23:55Speaker 16: It seems like you're getting in trouble. It seems like
- 23:58Speaker 16: if you don't say something so crazy. You can't really
- 24:01Speaker 16: move the algorithm. Like, even with the cat, William, I
- 24:04Speaker 16: love cats. But, you know, it wasn't no follow-up questions.
- 24:07Speaker 16: You know, when he talked about Cedric.
- 24:08Speaker 3: I bust his stomach. I was like, oh, God.
- 24:11Speaker 16: So the podcast, I'd be like, I don't want to
- 24:13Speaker 16: have to do whatever that is to get the algorithm popping.
- 24:16Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
- 24:16Speaker 5: And you got to talk crazy.
- 24:18Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay.
- 24:19Speaker 4: You don't have to talk crazy.
- 24:21Speaker 6: I'm laughing because he said this a long time ago
- 24:23Speaker 6: before the health scare. He said that a long time ago.
- 24:25Speaker 6: He didn't want to do any podcasts or interviews because
- 24:27Speaker 6: he said every time he does, he'd get in trouble.
- 24:29Speaker 6: You don't have to say nothing crazy. You can sit
- 24:31Speaker 6: down with somebody and have a good conversation.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Right.
- 24:33Speaker 7: He Jamie Foxx. Like, it's so many things that people
- 24:36Speaker 7: want to get into.
- 24:36Speaker 4: A million stories.
- 24:37Speaker 1: Of course.
- 24:38Speaker 7: He just seemed like, he just like, nah, I ain't,
- 24:40Speaker 7: I ain't, I'm not going out right now.
- 24:42Speaker 4: But I get what he's saying.
- 24:44Speaker 7: He's on the other side of his health battle or journey.
- 24:46Speaker 7: So I think he's trying to keep things in a
- 24:48Speaker 7: positive light. But he also talked about hip-hop getting older,
- 24:52Speaker 7: a joke that he did take out. Let's take a
- 24:53Speaker 7: listen to that.
- 24:54Speaker 16: I didn't get a chance to get this joke in,
- 24:56Speaker 16: but getting older and watching hip-hop get old and watching
- 25:00Speaker 16: some of my heroes get old. I watched this commercial
- 25:02Speaker 16: and it was Deion Sanders. He was dressed all nice.
- 25:04Speaker 16: And it was a pamper commercial.
- 25:05Speaker 4: I said, what the f * * *? Talk about
- 25:07Speaker 4: the pen.
- 25:08Speaker 3: And, you know, I just * * * * myself.
- 25:10Speaker 1: I just * * * * with the pen.
- 25:12Speaker 4: I said, what the * * * *? That's us now.
- 25:14Speaker 1: Halle Berry menopause.
- 25:16Speaker 4: Deion Sanders wearing a diaper. I said, what the * * * *?
- 25:19Speaker 4: I really am a triple OG. I love it.
- 25:21Speaker 2: I want to be a quadruple OG. Because guess what?
- 25:24Speaker 2: All I heard was they still getting money.
- 25:26Speaker 5: Yes.
- 25:26Speaker 4: At their old age. That's all I heard.
- 25:31Speaker 7: Well, speaking of Halle Berry, well, first of all, yes,
- 25:33Speaker 7: make sure you guys go tune into Jamie Foxx's special.
- 25:36Speaker 7: It will air tomorrow, October 7th, on Hulu.
- 25:38Speaker 4: Who was he speaking with again?
- 25:40Speaker 7: That was the Hollywood Reporter.
- 25:41Speaker 4: Hollywood Reporter. That is interesting when you think about it.
- 25:43Speaker 2: Deion Sanders and Halle Berry still getting endorsements at their age,
- 25:46Speaker 2: and you got people in their 20s and 30s can't
- 25:48Speaker 2: get one endorsement.
- 25:49Speaker 4: Right now.
- 25:51Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 25:52Speaker 7: And people believe their endorsements. They got careers that sustain,
- 25:55Speaker 7: that's believable.
- 25:57Speaker 4: I think they use it. Dion said he used it.
- 26:01Speaker 7: I feel like a lot of people, you're picking and
- 26:04Speaker 7: choosing the brands that you're sitting next to right now,
- 26:05Speaker 7: but the internet and the way that things are set up,
- 26:07Speaker 7: everybody's just doing everything, so you can't really see through
- 26:09Speaker 7: all of it. Now, speaking of Halle Berry, yesterday there
- 26:13Speaker 7: were videos and photos circulating of her out shopping with
- 26:17Speaker 7: her children, including her son um emacio robert martinez is
- 26:21Speaker 7: which is the uh the 12 year old child that
- 26:23Speaker 7: she shares with olivier martinez that's the 12 year old
- 26:27Speaker 7: that we were talking about before where the dad was
- 26:29Speaker 7: claiming like there was like all this physical abuse and
- 26:31Speaker 7: she said that it was misleading and you know all the.
- 26:34Speaker 2: Things she did so what sometimes you go upside your
- 26:36Speaker 2: little boy head and keep it moving yeah.
- 26:37Speaker 9: He is 12 you know he's 13 and now they all.
- 26:41Speaker 7: Shopping okay because they say i kept seeing 12 years
- 26:44Speaker 7: I saw 12, I mean 12, 13. That age range
- 26:46Speaker 7: there is like.
- 26:47Speaker 4: He feeling himself a little bit.
- 26:48Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 26:48Speaker 7: And then he said something and she probably had to
- 26:50Speaker 7: remind him, look, I threw my first son in the dumpster.
- 26:53Speaker 3: He ain't do nothing.
- 26:54Speaker 7: So calm down.
- 26:55Speaker 8: In the movie.
- 26:55Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I know what.
- 26:56Speaker 7: I'm just saying. Like, don't do too much.
- 26:59Speaker 4: Mother chokes son and then he's seen out with him
- 27:01Speaker 4: the next day.
- 27:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 27:02Speaker 3: I said, and you know what?
- 27:04Speaker 7: In that story, she was, you better not play with
- 27:06Speaker 7: me in here. you know but she's asking a court
- 27:09Speaker 7: though to restore uh her custody because remember i told
- 27:12Speaker 7: you guys that there was like a temporary custody shift
- 27:15Speaker 7: uh because of these claims so she's asking the court
- 27:17Speaker 7: to restore the custody she's also saying that a lot
- 27:20Speaker 7: of the things that or she's claiming a lot of
- 27:22Speaker 7: the things that we heard in those first docs are
- 27:24Speaker 7: from the dad's side that there's like you know this
- 27:26Speaker 7: anger or whatever from the father's side that affects their
- 27:29Speaker 7: relationships and a lot of the reports that we saw
- 27:31Speaker 7: were misleading and did not go down the way that
- 27:33Speaker 7: they were reported so Yeah. Well, they obviously parent differently.
- 27:37Speaker 7: But they've been having these co-parenting issues for like years
- 27:41Speaker 7: since they split.
- 27:42Speaker 6: So like you said, it's how you say it. Like
- 27:44Speaker 6: because my mom called me the other day and I
- 27:46Speaker 6: said it behind the scenes. My mom was like, I've
- 27:48Speaker 6: never choked you. I yoked you up, but I never
- 27:51Speaker 6: choked you.
- 27:51Speaker 4: Well, I couldn't breathe then, mama.
- 27:53Speaker 3: Well, I couldn't breathe until you let go of my neck.
- 27:57Speaker 3: How come I couldn't breathe until you.
- 27:58Speaker 4: Let go of my neck? What did you do to
- 28:01Speaker 4: get yoked up?
- 28:02Speaker 1: That's the whole point.
- 28:03Speaker 7: It'd be like four sides to a story. Remember when
- 28:06Speaker 7: I was telling you about the headset? Oh, shoot, I
- 28:08Speaker 7: got to wrap up. The VR headset? When she walked
- 28:10Speaker 7: in and was like, and the son claimed she said,
- 28:13Speaker 7: you look stupid playing this. She said she walked in
- 28:15Speaker 7: and told him to get off the game He said no,
- 28:19Speaker 7: and then started recording her on his phone.
- 28:21Speaker 1: Oh.
- 28:21Speaker 4: Soon as he said no, that would have been it.
- 28:23Speaker 7: What are you talking about?
- 28:24Speaker 4: Are you pulling out a phone recording me?
- 28:25Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 28:26Speaker 4: Okay. The reality is Dr. Lamar tried to tell you
- 28:29Speaker 4: all about these type of relationships. But no. Oh, my goodness.

- 29:30Speaker 4: The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.
- 29:34Speaker 1: All right.
- 29:34Speaker 6: Start off with some quick sports. Last night in baseball,
- 29:36Speaker 6: the White Sox beat the Guardians 4-3. They lead that
- 29:39Speaker 6: series 2-0. The Rays beat the Yankees 5-2. They lead
- 29:42Speaker 6: that series 2-0.
- 29:43Speaker 3: And in Monday Night Football, the.
- 29:45Speaker 4: Falcons beat the Saints 45-24.
- 29:47Speaker 6: WNBA, usually they have the scores here.
- 29:51Speaker 4: Any of y'all watch the games? Any games last night?
- 29:53Speaker 4: No games came on last night. No games came on
- 29:54Speaker 4: last night?
- 29:54Speaker 1: Okay.
- 29:54Speaker 4: All right, what's up, Mimi?
- 29:57Speaker 11: Good morning, guys.
- 29:58Speaker 12: Front Page News is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan, America's
- 30:01Speaker 12: largest injury law firm. So we start this hour with
- 30:04Speaker 12: the parents of Nolan Wells renewing their calls for a
- 30:08Speaker 12: federal investigation into their son's death 94 days after his
- 30:13Speaker 12: body was found. So Nolan's parents, they were in Englewood,
- 30:16Speaker 12: California yesterday. calling on the FBI and the Justice Department
- 30:20Speaker 12: to step in and investigate what happened. And Nolan, of course,
- 30:23Speaker 12: was 18 years old. He disappeared during a Fourth of
- 30:26Speaker 12: July trip to Horn Island with a group of friends.
- 30:31Speaker 11: His body was found two days later.
- 30:33Speaker 12: And now his mother says they still have more questions
- 30:36Speaker 12: than answers, and they just want federal investigators to do
- 30:40Speaker 12: the right thing.
- 30:41Speaker 7: Let's listen. So it is our plea that his case
- 30:46Speaker 7: is reopened, reexamined, but also.
- 30:54Speaker 11: That the authorities.
- 30:56Speaker 7: Do their job. Treat him as if this were.
- 31:02Speaker 17: Your child, your niece, your nephew, whatever you need to
- 31:07Speaker 17: do to.
- 31:08Speaker 1: Give us an honest and thorough.
- 31:13Speaker 7: Investigation. That's it. That is all we want.
- 31:18Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 31:19Speaker 12: So last month, a grand jury reviewed the case and
- 31:22Speaker 12: decided no criminal charges should be filed. But, you know,
- 31:26Speaker 12: of course, his family says there's still evidence.
- 31:28Speaker 11: That needs a closer look.
- 31:29Speaker 12: We talked about the family releasing those Snapchat messages that
- 31:32Speaker 12: they say raised new questions about.
- 31:34Speaker 11: What happened before and after Nolan disappeared.
- 31:36Speaker 12: They've also raised questions about his cell phone, including whether messages.
- 31:41Speaker 11: May have been deleted.
- 31:42Speaker 12: And so now they're asking federal investigators to go back
- 31:44Speaker 12: through all of that evidence for themselves.
- 31:46Speaker 6: So is that video of I think I asked Angela
- 31:49Speaker 6: Rodgers the other day to that video of him cleaning.
- 31:53Speaker 6: I guess somebody was cleaning the boat after he got back.
- 31:55Speaker 6: It was like three in the morning. They said that
- 31:57Speaker 6: was weird that he was cleaning. And at that time,
- 31:59Speaker 6: did that ever come out anywhere or did they interview
- 32:03Speaker 6: that gentleman or anything?
- 32:04Speaker 5: We don't know.
- 32:05Speaker 11: So we don't know if they interviewed him, but I
- 32:07Speaker 11: know the video they're talking about, he's like wiping up.
- 32:09Speaker 12: He has a towel, and it's kind of like red,
- 32:12Speaker 12: and there's a woman in the video as well.
- 32:14Speaker 4: Yes.
- 32:15Speaker 11: And if they have interviewed him, they're keeping that close
- 32:18Speaker 11: to the vest.
- 32:18Speaker 12: They haven't said anything or what that was or what's
- 32:21Speaker 12: coming from that.
- 32:23Speaker 11: But we will look into that as well.
- 32:25Speaker 12: I mean, there's so many videos and just– Short videos
- 32:30Speaker 12: that people are releasing on the Internet. And I think
- 32:32Speaker 12: his team is just kind of combing through all of
- 32:33Speaker 12: that one by one, hoping to make their case. And
- 32:35Speaker 12: they also want to point out that Horn Island is
- 32:38Speaker 12: federal property. So the feds can definitely take a closer
- 32:42Speaker 12: look at this investigation because it happened on federal property.
- 32:45Speaker 12: So and one of the biggest mergers in Hollywood history
- 32:50Speaker 12: becomes official today.
- 32:52Speaker 11: So Paramount and Warner Brothers Discovery are.
- 32:54Speaker 12: Are coming together, putting everything from CBS and CNN, HBO,
- 32:58Speaker 12: Paramount Plus, and Warner Brothers under the same company. So
- 33:02Speaker 12: the $ 110 billion, excuse me, $ 110 billion deal, it creates
- 33:07Speaker 12: a new company called Skydance, controlled by David Ellison. But
- 33:12Speaker 12: the big question is, what is going to get combined
- 33:15Speaker 12: and what's going to get cut? So the company says
- 33:17Speaker 12: that it can find about $ 6 billion in savings over
- 33:19Speaker 12: the next three years, but that's raising concerns of layoffs.
- 33:23Speaker 12: And with Paramount +, HBO's streaming business now under one company,
- 33:26Speaker 12: there are also questions about what that's going to mean
- 33:28Speaker 12: for what you're going to pay for those streaming services.
- 33:32Speaker 12: There were kind of also deals made, so... Part of
- 33:35Speaker 12: the deal for the merger is they have to complete
- 33:37Speaker 12: like 30 movies a year, invest another $ 300.
- 33:40Speaker 11: Million in U.S. productions, those productions that have to be
- 33:43Speaker 11: done in America.
- 33:45Speaker 12: And they set aside about $ 47.
- 33:47Speaker 11: 5 million for affected workers.
- 33:50Speaker 12: Now, what that will look like for those workers, whether
- 33:52Speaker 12: they will be laid off, how that money will be controlled,
- 33:55Speaker 12: we don't know yet.
- 33:56Speaker 2: Tyler Perry can do 30 movies a year for $ 10 million.
- 34:01Speaker 11: We've seen it.
- 34:04Speaker 4: And get them 30 done in three months.
- 34:06Speaker 3: I knew you were going to say that.
- 34:07Speaker 11: We've seen it. We've definitely seen it.
- 34:09Speaker 1: You're right.
- 34:11Speaker 12: And lastly, because CNN and CBS News will now have
- 34:14Speaker 12: the same owner, they said there will be an independent
- 34:15Speaker 12: board to oversee those editorial standards.
- 34:17Speaker 11: So I know, Char, you may have some thoughts on this.
- 34:22Speaker 4: I'm just interested to see what happens. You know what
- 34:23Speaker 4: I mean? It's going to be interesting. It's going to.
- 34:25Speaker 2: Be interesting to see who they partner with to create
- 34:28Speaker 2: some of this content.
- 34:29Speaker 4: It's going to be interesting to see.
- 34:29Speaker 2: What happens with the actual news networks, how much of
- 34:33Speaker 2: the MAGA thumbprint is going to be on the CNNs
- 34:36Speaker 2: and whatnot. It's just going to be interesting to see.
- 34:38Speaker 2: You just got to sit back and see what happens.
- 34:41Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 34:42Speaker 12: And really quickly, President Obama, he's sitting down with author
- 34:46Speaker 12: Ta-Nehisi Coates for a personal conversation about race and power
- 34:50Speaker 12: and how their thinking has changed over the years.
- 34:52Speaker 11: So the two are talking about James Baldwin, The Fire.
- 34:55Speaker 12: Next time, it's a book that helps shape black America
- 34:58Speaker 12: or being black in America, should I say, as part
- 35:01Speaker 12: of Obama's new podcast. a great book with Obama. But
- 35:04Speaker 12: during the conversation, Obama gets very introspective. He talks about
- 35:08Speaker 12: getting older and then he looks back at his own life,
- 35:11Speaker 12: including his time at the White House and reflects on
- 35:13Speaker 12: what he got right and where he may have fallen short.
- 35:16Speaker 11: Let's listen really quickly.
- 35:18Speaker 18: Yeah, I'm in an ongoing conversation with them. They're my ancestors.
- 35:22Speaker 18: They're my ghosts. They talk to me all the time.
- 35:25Speaker 18: I hear their voices. They say, did you do enough?
- 35:29Speaker 18: Did you really risk What you should have risked on
- 35:34Speaker 18: behalf of this cause, this issue, these people? Did you
- 35:38Speaker 18: speak as truthfully as you could in those circumstances? Are
- 35:44Speaker 18: you doing as much as you could right now and
- 35:46Speaker 18: when skies aflame? I am, as my wife will attest,
- 35:53Speaker 18: a very tough critic on myself.
- 35:57Speaker 4: I'm sure he realizes he didn't do enough.
- 35:58Speaker 2: But like when you look back at Obama's presidency, what
- 36:01Speaker 2: you see to me is the beginning stages of Republicans
- 36:04Speaker 2: abusing institutional power. Like it's the same abuse of institutional power,
- 36:08Speaker 2: which has become the norm under Trump. That really started
- 36:11Speaker 2: under Obama because Republicans were hell bent on making sure
- 36:14Speaker 2: his presidency failed. I remember when Mitch McConnell said the
- 36:17Speaker 2: single most important thing we want to achieve is for
- 36:20Speaker 2: President Obama to be a one term president. president like
- 36:23Speaker 2: Obama took he just took a lot of crap that
- 36:25Speaker 2: a white president wouldn't and that's why I don't know
- 36:27Speaker 2: why sometimes Obama just don't come out and say man
- 36:29Speaker 2: I did the best I could with the skin I
- 36:30Speaker 2: got yeah they would have impeached or killed me if
- 36:34Speaker 2: I did anything outside of what these institutions would have.
- 36:36Speaker 6: Allowed he wore a tan suit and they drilled him
- 36:38Speaker 6: about that damn tan and forget his tan suit I'm
- 36:40Speaker 6: talking about his black skin so to me anything he
- 36:43Speaker 6: did he did he did he did a damn good
- 36:46Speaker 6: job for you know the position that he was in.
- 36:49Speaker 4: Anything he did they went against.
- 36:52Speaker 7: Anything.
- 36:53Speaker 11: Yeah. And that that conversation is out on Audible.
- 36:56Speaker 12: But it was, you know, from what I listened to
- 36:58Speaker 12: so far, it's a really good conversation and very, very introspective. And,
- 37:01Speaker 12: you know, I don't know, you know, but the two
- 37:02Speaker 12: of them, you know, Tallahassee would always kind of get
- 37:05Speaker 12: on Obama. So for them to have this conversation was.
- 37:07Speaker 12: It was very good and very enlightening.
- 37:10Speaker 2: I never looked to President Obama to be a revolutionary.
- 37:12Speaker 2: People say Obama was an institutionalist.
- 37:14Speaker 4: Yeah, he had to be.
- 37:16Speaker 2: If he would have did anything outside of what those
- 37:20Speaker 2: institutions would allow, it would have been really, really bad.
- 37:23Speaker 2: Like I said, they probably would have impeached him worse.
- 37:28Speaker 4: Killed him. I'm an extremist. I don't know about killing him,
- 37:33Speaker 4: but they would have crucified him.
- 37:34Speaker 15: Why not?
- 37:35Speaker 4: Yeah, we've never seen a powerful black person get killed.
- 37:37Speaker 2: Before in this country.
- 37:40Speaker 4: That's never happened. That's so out of the realm of possibility. Right, Char.

- 39:13Speaker 1: Good, good.
- 39:14Speaker 4: How are y'all?
- 39:15Speaker 7: Happy to see you.
- 39:16Speaker 2: I saw something recently where you said you've been doing
- 39:18Speaker 2: a lot of therapy since COVID. And the work was
- 39:21Speaker 2: around convincing yourself that you're enough.
- 39:24Speaker 1: That's what therapy, a lot of it is. A lot
- 39:27Speaker 1: of it, you know, all of us in the entertainment business. business,
- 39:31Speaker 1: a lot of us are, I always say, egomaniacs with
- 39:35Speaker 1: inferiority complexes. You know what I mean? You know what
- 39:40Speaker 1: I mean? I mean, you see it, especially in rappers
- 39:42Speaker 1: and whatever and comedians. It's like, your ego's like, I'm
- 39:45Speaker 1: the best, I'm the best, I'm the best.
- 39:46Speaker 4: What they saying.
- 39:47Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
- 39:48Speaker 1: Like, it's like, if you're so confident, why do you
- 39:51Speaker 1: care what everybody thinks? So sometimes you gotta, did you.
- 39:55Speaker 4: Feel that way though? As much as you've done? Yeah,
- 39:57Speaker 4: you've reached the mountain top.
- 39:59Speaker 1: There's not much higher that you can go.
- 40:01Speaker 3: Oh, there's always higher.
- 40:03Speaker 1: And a lot of it is an overreaction to maybe
- 40:08Speaker 1: being ignored or overlooked in other parts of your life.
- 40:12Speaker 1: A lot of being an artist is escaping the physical world.
- 40:18Speaker 1: So a lot of artists, they're almost always shorter than,
- 40:22Speaker 1: you know what I mean? They're always shorter. They're always smaller.
- 40:27Speaker 4: I had a conversation with Teddy Riley about that one time.
- 40:29Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, like, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,
- 40:31Speaker 1: everybody was, like, five foot six.
- 40:33Speaker 4: Teddy had a whole theory that you could not be
- 40:35Speaker 4: a tall superstar. And I was like, well, what about Jay-Z?
- 40:37Speaker 4: What about Snoop?
- 40:38Speaker 1: Those are exceptions. Those are totally exceptions. Most superstars or
- 40:43Speaker 1: short guys that want to be so successful, you forgot them.
- 40:49Speaker 1: That is what it is, okay?
- 40:50Speaker 3: Because, you know, I'm.
- 40:52Speaker 1: Not like a manosphere guy, but, you know, women... you
- 41:02Speaker 1: got two real rules you don't like short and you
- 41:05Speaker 1: don't like cheap damn cheap is not broke okay you
- 41:11Speaker 1: can be broke you just gotta be generous with your
- 41:14Speaker 1: broke ass generous with your burger king check.
- 41:21Speaker 7: Right he's not lying you better be considerate.
- 41:25Speaker 3: Yeah cash out considerate where's my card.
- 41:32Speaker 1: Where's my card? Hey, your broke ass can afford a card.
- 41:36Speaker 2: So when therapy started peeling all that back, what did
- 41:38Speaker 2: you discover about yourself that you didn't like?
- 41:40Speaker 1: Okay, A, I had to, I swear, I got diagnosed
- 41:44Speaker 1: with this kind of a learning disorder. Kind of like,
- 41:47Speaker 1: not quite Asperger's, this thing, NVLD. NVLD is nonverbal learning disorder.
- 41:53Speaker 1: So I have a hard time picking up on nonverbal learning.
- 41:58Speaker 1: cues so like i am not the brother to give
- 42:02Speaker 1: a hint to like you need to tell me explicitly
- 42:10Speaker 1: what the you want so if you meet a chick
- 42:13Speaker 1: and she's.
- 42:14Speaker 10: Like this you're doing that.
- 42:16Speaker 1: Back many a times it'd be like three weeks later
- 42:24Speaker 1: Three weeks later, I think Sade liked me.
- 42:28Speaker 4: It wasn't Sade.
- 42:33Speaker 1: So I need things spelled out for me. I suffer.
- 42:39Speaker 1: I do black and white thinking. I have a hard
- 42:42Speaker 1: time with nuances.
- 42:43Speaker 13: Really?
- 42:43Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 42:44Speaker 4: You're one of the most nuanced people.
- 42:45Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I work really hard. I work hard to overcompensate,
- 42:49Speaker 1: you know, my my my disadvantage. So I catastrophize things.
- 42:55Speaker 1: I immediately go to the worst possible scenario on everything.
- 43:01Speaker 1: And by the way. All of those traits or that
- 43:04Speaker 1: handicap works perfect for being a stand-up comedian. Like black
- 43:09Speaker 1: and white thinking, catastrophizing. That's all a joke is. You
- 43:13Speaker 1: take something and take it to the worst or the
- 43:16Speaker 1: best possible space. But it's horrible in your relationships with
- 43:20Speaker 1: family and love relationships and stuff like that. When people
- 43:23Speaker 1: got to deal with you all the time. And especially when...
- 43:27Speaker 1: Your relationships with people, a lot of it is just
- 43:29Speaker 1: shorthand anyway. You know what I mean? So I had
- 43:32Speaker 1: to learn. I had to humble myself because, you know,
- 43:38Speaker 1: when you mix celebrity in with this stuff, you just
- 43:41Speaker 1: blame everything on being famous. Because in most situations, I'm
- 43:45Speaker 1: just like the famous person in the room. So when
- 43:49Speaker 1: there was a misunderstanding, it was so easy for me
- 43:52Speaker 1: to blame and to go, ah, they're jealous or whatever
- 43:55Speaker 1: the hell. Or they just can't adjust to my family.
- 43:58Speaker 1: It's like, no, no, no, no. So I've had to
- 43:59Speaker 1: learn that, hey, it might be me. It probably is me.
- 44:04Speaker 1: Let's slow down. what is this person trying to say?
- 44:08Speaker 1: Listen again. You know what I mean? Like I just
- 44:10Speaker 1: had to learn to slow down and life isn't a
- 44:14Speaker 1: standup set. That's the other thing too, with all of us,
- 44:17Speaker 1: especially in this business or I consider us, we're all
- 44:20Speaker 1: in the same business, especially with dudes. It's like, I'm
- 44:24Speaker 1: going to take the things that have worked for me
- 44:27Speaker 1: so well in show business and try to use that
- 44:31Speaker 1: model in my personal life. And it, The credits don't transfer.
- 44:37Speaker 1: You know what I mean? That's what you have to learn.
- 44:39Speaker 1: You're like, it works here. It does not work over here.
- 44:43Speaker 1: It does not work with your children. It doesn't work
- 44:44Speaker 1: with your woman. It doesn't work with your family. You
- 44:47Speaker 1: know what I mean?
- 44:48Speaker 3: What's the hardest lesson?
- 44:49Speaker 1: The hardest lesson is just like, dude, just listen. Just
- 44:52Speaker 1: like slow down and listen. Also, you get over this
- 44:58Speaker 1: fear of losing it. Because we always have, like, all
- 45:01Speaker 1: of us have this scenario where we're back together. where
- 45:04Speaker 1: we started. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, every day.
- 45:08Speaker 1: Every day we think about it. Like, this scenario where
- 45:10Speaker 1: I'm at Red Lobster. You know what I mean? Like,
- 45:14Speaker 1: bussing tables. You know what I mean? Or driving, you know, riding,
- 45:18Speaker 1: emptying furniture trucks. I also had to get over it.
- 45:23Speaker 1: It's like, dude, you're a comedian. You've been a comedian
- 45:26Speaker 1: longer than anything. You know what I mean? You're not
- 45:29Speaker 1: a rapper, in a sense. A guy like Jay-Z still...
- 45:34Speaker 1: It's like, dude, how long did you sell crack? It's
- 45:36Speaker 1: like a short period. It's like, no, you are a comedian.
- 45:41Speaker 1: Longer than everything. You're okay. They're not kicking you out
- 45:44Speaker 1: of the club. You'll be invited to All-Star Weekend.
- 45:48Speaker 4: Do you feel like you're enough now?
- 45:50Speaker 1: I'm trying to be enough. Yeah, I guess I'm enough. Um, I, well,
- 45:54Speaker 1: I'm not basing, basing, basing my life on accomplishments. Now,
- 46:01Speaker 1: I don't think my accomplishments have anything to do with
- 46:03Speaker 1: my quality of relationships. So I just, yeah. So I'm
- 46:09Speaker 1: enough for this room. I'm enough for, you know, just
- 46:12Speaker 1: the people I love and the people that love me.
- 46:14Speaker 4: You know, we spoke about something, uh, this morning, um,
- 46:17Speaker 4: You went viral this week and I'm sure you know.
- 46:18Speaker 5: I did?
- 46:18Speaker 4: When you talked about.
- 46:20Speaker 1: I really don't pay attention like I used to.
- 46:21Speaker 4: Like, I don't. Well, you went viral this week because
- 46:25Speaker 4: you talked about... that you had some regrets that your
- 46:27Speaker 4: best friend's brother, you had regretted that you didn't help him. Yeah.
- 46:31Speaker 1: Well, it would have been an appeal. Correct. You know
- 46:33Speaker 1: what I mean? So people are like, Hey, how come
- 46:35Speaker 1: you didn't help? I was like, dude, he was already
- 46:37Speaker 1: locked up and that someone had testified against him. And
- 46:41Speaker 1: I answered the question because the, the journalist asked me
- 46:46Speaker 1: about accusations and I'm like, dude, I'm black, you know,
- 46:50Speaker 1: not that, you know, black people can't, you know, suffer
- 46:53Speaker 1: trauma and any black woman or man that accuses somebody
- 46:56Speaker 1: of it. Like these accusations need to be taken, need
- 46:59Speaker 1: to be taken seriously. But at the same time as
- 47:03Speaker 1: a black man, every day I watch every day, I
- 47:06Speaker 1: can pick up the New York times or daily and
- 47:08Speaker 1: watch a black man get out of jail after 20 years.
- 47:11Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
- 47:13Speaker 4: So what happened?
- 47:14Speaker 1: So that accusation was fine. It's like, believe all accusations,
- 47:18Speaker 1: except that one. So, yeah, I had a friend. My friend,
- 47:25Speaker 1: he's dead now. Dirt bike Mike. God bless the dead.
- 47:28Speaker 1: And his brother was in jail for a murder. And
- 47:32Speaker 1: he asked me to help him with an appeal. And
- 47:36Speaker 1: I didn't help him. And it wasn't even like... him
- 47:39Speaker 1: or anything like that you know lawyers are an open-ended.
- 47:43Speaker 4: Yeah it's like bill you know what i.
- 47:45Speaker 1: Mean like you know what i mean like hey your
- 47:47Speaker 1: car you you hey my family everybody in my family
- 47:51Speaker 1: has my number hey your car doesn't start here's some
- 47:54Speaker 1: money you're you got a hole in your roof here's
- 47:56Speaker 1: some money you know what i mean like kids want
- 47:58Speaker 1: to go to school here's some money camp here's some
- 48:01Speaker 1: money lawyers especially when you're you know when they already
- 48:05Speaker 1: said you're guilty it's like That could be $ 10, 000. That
- 48:09Speaker 1: could end up being $ 400, 000. I just didn't have it.
- 48:11Speaker 1: I had it, but I didn't. You didn't know where
- 48:14Speaker 1: it was going to end. I didn't know where it
- 48:16Speaker 1: was going to end. But it was really about, in
- 48:18Speaker 1: my life, I've seen accusations not pan out. And that
- 48:22Speaker 1: doesn't mean ignore anybody. Hear everything, but let the system
- 48:28Speaker 1: play out. And even when it plays out, it still
- 48:30Speaker 1: might be wrong. A hundred years ago, when I was
- 48:32Speaker 1: on SNL, Sinead O'Connor rips up a picture of the Pope.
- 48:37Speaker 1: I'm like right there. I'm like literally right there. Right.
- 48:40Speaker 1: And the whole, you know, backstage 8-H went crazy. And
- 48:46Speaker 1: all the team says, everybody's mad at Sinead O'Connor, right?
- 48:49Speaker 1: I remember that night because we had to do Good Night.
- 48:51Speaker 1: And one of the most angry people was this guy,
- 48:54Speaker 1: Phil Hartman.
- 48:55Speaker 4: He used to be on the show.
- 48:55Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember him. And he didn't
- 48:57Speaker 1: want to even go on the stage. Okay, cut two
- 49:00Speaker 1: years later. Okay, Phil Hartman's wife shoots him in the head.
- 49:05Speaker 1: And the Catholic Church, we all see what happened to
- 49:08Speaker 1: the Catholic Church. What I'm trying to say is the
- 49:10Speaker 1: whole world thought Sinead O'Connor was wrong. The whole world
- 49:16Speaker 1: destroyed this woman's career, destroyed, you know. contributed to her
- 49:20Speaker 1: mental decline, and the whole world was wrong.
- 49:24Speaker 4: She had valid reasons.
- 49:25Speaker 1: You know what I mean? So let's be careful with,
- 49:29Speaker 1: let's hear all allegations, but let's be calm, man. And,
- 49:33Speaker 1: you know, one of the Ten Commandments is thou shall
- 49:37Speaker 1: not spread false witness. So can we stop giving opinions
- 49:42Speaker 1: on shit we don't know about her?
- 49:45Speaker 4: Listen, I think you're complicating this a little bit because
- 49:47Speaker 4: I said this this morning.
- 49:49Speaker 2: Sometimes you be like, I don't know if he did
- 49:52Speaker 2: it or not.
- 49:54Speaker 1: Yeah. We always don't know if he did it or not.
- 49:56Speaker 1: You know what I mean? And I'm not saying it's
- 49:58Speaker 1: not news. But thou shall not spread false witness is real, man.
- 50:06Speaker 1: And we all kind of like.
- 50:09Speaker 1: It's like a commandment. We go, I don't know about
- 50:12Speaker 1: that one.
- 50:12Speaker 4: You said the Roger Logan thing still messes with you, though.
- 50:15Speaker 2: Is it because today you realize that sometimes having the
- 50:17Speaker 2: means means to help somebody?
- 50:19Speaker 1: It's because maybe I could have helped. Hey, by the way,
- 50:23Speaker 1: I could have spent a bunch of money and it
- 50:26Speaker 1: still wouldn't have worked. Maybe he needed the white man
- 50:29Speaker 1: to free him. Maybe my black ass wasn't going to
- 50:32Speaker 1: be able to do anything. I'm not the person to
- 50:36Speaker 1: put somebody in their place, but don't Like, dude, don't
- 50:39Speaker 1: come to a black person talking about allegations, right? Yeah.
- 50:42Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like, yo, check yourself.
- 50:44Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 50:44Speaker 7: Since he's been home, have you spoken to him?
- 50:47Speaker 1: I've seen him a couple of times. I've seen him
- 50:48Speaker 1: when I go through the neighborhood. You know, and it's so,
- 50:50Speaker 1: you know, who knows? I'm glad he's out. I'm glad
- 50:53Speaker 1: he got paid. You know, it's still nothing. No amount
- 50:56Speaker 1: of money is worth, you know.
- 50:58Speaker 12: Doing that.
- 50:59Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 51:00Speaker 7: You know, it was crazy when I watched the interview
- 51:01Speaker 7: and he asked you about the whole accusations thing and
- 51:04Speaker 7: like forgiveness when it comes to people. I didn't even
- 51:06Speaker 7: catch your responses like you telling him like I'm a
- 51:08Speaker 7: black man.
- 51:08Speaker 1: Don't ask. They edit that part out.
- 51:11Speaker 7: Because I'm like, I was sitting there like, I get
- 51:13Speaker 7: what you were saying, but I'm like, he handled it.
- 51:15Speaker 7: I kept saying he had so much empathy. He handled
- 51:17Speaker 7: things so well because it was like there was a disconnect.
- 51:20Speaker 7: You were trying to get him to understand a black
- 51:22Speaker 7: man walking down the street every single day, regardless of
- 51:24Speaker 7: who you are. You're still a black man. And I
- 51:26Speaker 7: don't know if even the world took those clips and
- 51:28Speaker 7: understood that. I watched it and was like, for Chris
- 51:31Speaker 7: Rock to be Chris Rock, he still understands like. I'm
- 51:33Speaker 7: still here as a black man. A lot of people
- 51:35Speaker 7: don't keep that. But the way they clipped it up
- 51:37Speaker 7: made them look. But I watched the full interview and
- 51:39Speaker 7: I was still surprised to know that I came in
- 51:42Speaker 7: and asked, I'm like, has he always been like that?
- 51:43Speaker 7: And I was just too young to understand that. Or,
- 51:45Speaker 7: and he said, you were always empathetic like that.
- 51:47Speaker 1: I mean, I walk like, you know, I got a
- 51:50Speaker 1: couple of people, but I don't walk around with a entourage.
- 51:54Speaker 1: I don't, I don't really have security unless I'm on tour.
- 51:58Speaker 1: You can ring my bell. I live in the city.
- 52:00Speaker 1: It doesn't say Chris Rock on the door, but you
- 52:02Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like, I try to... Chris Rock
- 52:03Speaker 1: was there for me.
- 52:03Speaker 4: He was doing his basketball games every day.
- 52:05Speaker 3: Like, buying certain things.
- 52:07Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
- 52:09Speaker 1: And I don't deserve credit for that. I'm just saying,
- 52:12Speaker 1: it's just how I like to live.
- 52:13Speaker 7: I mean more like, you know the Jay-Z line, like,
- 52:15Speaker 7: I'm not black, I'm O.J., yeah, okay. Like, I think,
- 52:18Speaker 7: to me, certain people get very, very big, very, very famous,
- 52:21Speaker 7: and you... Center yourself with or surround yourself with these
- 52:25Speaker 7: people where a lot of the certain things that will
- 52:26Speaker 7: happen to everyday black men in America might not hit
- 52:29Speaker 7: you as hard. And it feels like it's still hitting
- 52:31Speaker 7: you as hard or there's an empathy.
- 52:33Speaker 1: Oh, it hits me every day is hard. And hey, man,
- 52:36Speaker 1: we're in midtown Manhattan. And right now, if we go
- 52:42Speaker 1: outside and stand on, you know, if we go to
- 52:45Speaker 1: Madison Avenue, three blocks from here, you're going to see
- 52:48Speaker 1: a bunch of people shopping and a bunch of people
- 52:51Speaker 1: eating at outsourced outdoor cafes. But you're not going to
- 52:54Speaker 1: see a lot of black people doing that. You're going
- 52:56Speaker 1: to see the black people are going to have on blue.
- 52:59Speaker 1: They work for Amazon. They're serving. And that's, you know,
- 53:04Speaker 1: I can't. You know, I can't just live a life where, oh,
- 53:07Speaker 1: I'm balling. F * * * all y'all. Like, it
- 53:10Speaker 1: affects me. You know what I mean? I'm working on
- 53:14Speaker 1: a book. I'm working on a book of essays. Hopefully
- 53:16Speaker 1: I finish it. And right now, the name of it
- 53:19Speaker 1: is When the Homeless Know Your Name. Because when the
- 53:22Speaker 1: homeless know your name, it hits harder. You know what
- 53:26Speaker 1: I mean? And I'm not like, you.
- 53:28Speaker 4: Know, whatever.
- 53:29Speaker 1: People think I'm over. I dropped out of high school.
- 53:31Speaker 1: I don't have, you know what I mean? So... Without
- 53:34Speaker 1: the breaks I had in show business early on, who
- 53:37Speaker 1: knows what I'd be doing. I don't think I'd be
- 53:39Speaker 1: in jail or anything like that, but I would probably
- 53:42Speaker 1: be serving white people.
- 53:44Speaker 2: Do you ignore the people on purpose, like when you walking?
- 53:47Speaker 2: We've seen a lot of videos of you just ignoring people.
- 53:49Speaker 4: When they try to take pictures.
- 53:50Speaker 1: I try to nod or whatever, but if I stopped
- 53:52Speaker 1: at every picture, I wouldn't have got here.
- 53:54Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 53:58Speaker 3: Like, where's Chris?
- 54:00Speaker 1: He never makes the interview.
- 54:02Speaker 2: I want to go back to the Roger Logan thing
- 54:03Speaker 2: because it kind of connects with Misty Green because with
- 54:05Speaker 2: Misty Green, you've been talking about love and friendship and forgiveness.
- 54:08Speaker 2: And I've heard you talk about forgiveness a lot lately, right?
- 54:10Speaker 2: Do you have to forgive yourself for the times you
- 54:12Speaker 2: feel like you failed somebody?
- 54:14Speaker 1: Yeah, you do have to say to yourself, I did
- 54:18Speaker 1: the most with what I knew at the time. You
- 54:21Speaker 1: know what I mean? You can't punish yourself later because
- 54:26Speaker 1: you're a smarter guy later. You know what I mean? Like, okay,
- 54:28Speaker 1: who was I when I made that decision? That's what
- 54:32Speaker 1: I would say. But a lot of times we're like,
- 54:34Speaker 1: I should have known better. You didn't know better. You
- 54:37Speaker 1: should have known what you knew at that time. That's
- 54:41Speaker 1: all you got. That's all any of us have.
- 54:43Speaker 4: But do you feel like you failed your brother told you?
- 54:45Speaker 4: When you hear Tony.
- 54:48Speaker 2: Say the things that he says, he loves you, he
- 54:49Speaker 2: supports you, he's not jealous of you, but he wishes
- 54:52Speaker 2: that you and him could do things together.
- 54:53Speaker 1: I mean, maybe we'll do something together. I mean, Tony's
- 54:56Speaker 1: been on Everybody Hates Chris. Tony's been in Everybody Hates
- 55:00Speaker 1: Chris animated show. So he's been in stuff.
- 55:03Speaker 4: I think he said he wants to go on tour.
- 55:05Speaker 1: We just haven't done a movie or a tour. But,
- 55:07Speaker 1: you know, some of that's just being around. Tony lives
- 55:11Speaker 1: in L.A. I live in. In New York. Tony lives great, man.
- 55:15Speaker 1: Tony makes hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. And
- 55:18Speaker 1: Tony's on tour all the time.
- 55:20Speaker 4: Hilarious.
- 55:21Speaker 1: And he's got properties. Tony lives better than I did
- 55:26Speaker 1: on Saturday Night Live. So it's not like... Dude, you
- 55:31Speaker 1: ain't never going to get me to say anything disparaging
- 55:33Speaker 1: about my brother.
- 55:34Speaker 4: No, you shouldn't.
- 55:37Speaker 1: But he's doing fine. It's not like a situation where
- 55:39Speaker 1: I'm like, well, I got this guy... No, he's doing great.
- 55:43Speaker 1: And everybody, you know, Damon's not in Scary Movie.
- 55:48Speaker 3: It's not an issue. I don't think it's an issue.
- 55:54Speaker 1: Tom Hanks has a... kids that are actors.
- 56:00Speaker 7: But from the outside, Denzel too. And from the outside
- 56:03Speaker 7: looking into it.
- 56:05Speaker 4: And everybody does it like, damn it ain't enough.
- 56:09Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not like a thing.
- 56:10Speaker 3: I don't think it's a.
- 56:11Speaker 7: It's not like Tony doing bad.
- 56:12Speaker 1: Yeah, Tony's doing.
- 56:13Speaker 4: But he said it from a place of admiration, not resentment. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 56:16Speaker 1: Tony's doing great.
- 56:17Speaker 4: I'm proud of him.
- 56:18Speaker 1: Tony's a killer comedian. He's like literally one of the
- 56:21Speaker 1: best out there. And you got another brother. I got Jordan.
- 56:23Speaker 1: And I got a daughter in the movie.
- 56:25Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Now she has to be
- 56:31Speaker 3: in the movie.
- 56:32Speaker 4: Okay.
- 56:33Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like, I got, you know,
- 56:36Speaker 1: we got, you know.
- 56:38Speaker 4: What's your first reaction when you hear those comments, though?
- 56:40Speaker 4: You call Tony?
- 56:40Speaker 1: Tony, just call me. I mean, sometimes. I mean, we've
- 56:43Speaker 1: talked occasionally. I don't, you know, because I'm not tripping
- 56:46Speaker 1: on any of it. I'm not tripping on any of it.
- 56:48Speaker 1: But he's doing great. If he wasn't, then I might
- 56:53Speaker 1: be like, oh, my God. But he's doing great. And,
- 56:56Speaker 1: you know, you just got to be around, you know.
- 56:58Speaker 1: When I'm in Beverly Hills Cop, you think Eddie Murphy's
- 57:01Speaker 1: sitting around going, how could I help Chris Rock? No,
- 57:04Speaker 1: he's just like, Chris Rock happens to be right there.
- 57:07Speaker 7: I'm like, I'm around.
- 57:10Speaker 1: The whale and seeing what falls off. You know what
- 57:14Speaker 1: I mean? Like, that's what it is. You got to be,
- 57:16Speaker 1: a lot of this stuff, it's no different than rappers.
- 57:18Speaker 1: It's like, who was in the studio that night?
- 57:20Speaker 16: Mm-hmm.
- 57:21Speaker 7: Because that's a lot of.
- 57:22Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
- 57:24Speaker 1: That's a lot of features of just like, yo, my
- 57:27Speaker 1: man was downstairs and we told him to come upstairs.
- 57:30Speaker 1: And a lot of, you know, the movies are that way.
- 57:32Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 57:33Speaker 1: Where it's just like, who's around?
- 57:34Speaker 7: It's like you talk about being a good friend has
- 57:36Speaker 7: helped you too.
- 57:37Speaker 1: Everybody in this room, at least 25% of your work
- 57:40Speaker 1: is from friendships.
- 57:41Speaker 4: Absolutely.
- 57:42Speaker 1: Yeah. At least.
- 57:44Speaker 4: At least 20... Probably more than that, yeah.
- 57:45Speaker 1: It's probably 40, 50% of what you've accomplished in your career...
- 57:51Speaker 1: It's people going, hey, hey, Envy, yeah, Charlamagne. You know
- 57:55Speaker 1: what I mean? Like people just thinking that you're cool
- 57:58Speaker 1: to hang out with, that you're reliable.
- 58:01Speaker 3: Woo!
- 58:02Speaker 1: Being a reliable black person goes a long way. He's
- 58:10Speaker 1: on time. The amount of jobs I've gotten because another
- 58:16Speaker 1: black man wasn't on time. Especially, you know what I mean?
- 58:22Speaker 1: Because it's like we all have like this rap mentality
- 58:25Speaker 1: and rap. Yeah. The studio's booked from 8 to 8,
- 58:29Speaker 1: and the rappers show up. They show up at the
- 58:32Speaker 1: last minute, and they got to pay for all this time.
- 58:34Speaker 1: Movies are not made like that, man. Movies and TV
- 58:38Speaker 1: is a nerd's business. You got to be there in
- 58:42Speaker 1: the morning, okay? You got to be reliable. I got
- 58:46Speaker 1: to be able to count on you constantly. So, yes,
- 58:49Speaker 1: I'm a good friend, but I'm also a very reliable person.
- 58:54Speaker 9: Speaking of friendships, I love you and Adam Sandler's relationship.
- 58:58Speaker 7: How did that come about?
- 58:59Speaker 1: I've known Adam, I hate to say it, it makes
- 59:03Speaker 1: me seem old, like 35, almost 40 years. We started
- 59:08Speaker 1: at the comic strip in August. on 82nd and 2nd,
- 59:11Speaker 1: it's still there. That's where Eddie Murphy recorded his first album.
- 59:14Speaker 1: The funny thing was when I met Adam, like when
- 59:17Speaker 1: you get in one of these clubs, they don't let
- 59:20Speaker 1: you do the weekends for a long time. It takes
- 59:22Speaker 1: you years. You're a pro.
- 59:25Speaker 2: Yes, sir.
- 59:27Speaker 1: It takes you forever to get the weekends, right? So
- 59:29Speaker 1: I'm gone doing a gig one week. I come back.
- 59:31Speaker 1: Adam Sandler, who I'd never met before, is on stage
- 59:34Speaker 1: at the comic strip on Saturday night. And I'm like,
- 59:37Speaker 1: who's this white boy that has jumped the line? It
- 59:43Speaker 1: is like on Saturday night. So it's weird because I
- 59:47Speaker 1: was set up to hate him. But I calmed down
- 59:50Speaker 1: and I watched his act and he was so funny.
- 59:54Speaker 1: I just like kind of fell in love with the guy.
- 59:56Speaker 1: We just hung out that night. And we've been rolling
- 59:59Speaker 1: ever since. And he's always looked out. Again, all of
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: this stuff comes organically from hanging around people and developing friendships.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: You know what I mean? People are not sitting there like,
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: how could I help this person? We're artists. This is
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: not a factory. And also, it's... What's your contribution going
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: to be? Because everybody ain't supposed to be in front
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: of the camera.
- 1:00:25Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: Some people do other things. So, like, where do you
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: fit in? Because, you know, it's like a baseball team. Like,
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: just contribute or a basketball team. Some people get to
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: shoot whenever they want. Some guys got to just set picks.
- 1:00:39Speaker 4: You don't have to handpick some of these people, though, right? Because,
- 1:00:42Speaker 4: I mean, what you.
- 1:00:43Speaker 2: Chris Rock's show, Wanda Sykes, Louis C.K., Pootie Tang. I mean,
- 1:00:47Speaker 2: Eddie grabbed you for Beverly Hills Cop.
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: Yeah, but I was just around.
- 1:00:50Speaker 4: Okay.
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: You know what I mean? I was at the comic
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: strip the night Eddie Murphy was at the comic strip.
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: Wanda Sykes, I met, she was at Caroline's and opened
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: for me at Caroline's like one night. Went on before me,
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: not even opening for me. And I was like, wow,
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: she's incredible. You know what I mean? And sometimes you
- 1:01:08Speaker 1: write it down and you're, you know, now I do
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: it like that. But back then you'd write it down.
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: Like if I ever get a show, I got to
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: remember to call this person. Yeah. First time I saw
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: Wanda Sykes, I was like, you know, I like the joke.
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: She's like a, She's like a Birkin bag at a
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: flea market. Like, do they see this? Do they even
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: know that a genius is here? You know what I mean? So,
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: but again, it's all about who are you around? Who
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: are you around? And by the way, sometimes you kind
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: of like, you know, my mother always says association brings assimilation. No,
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: you got to hang around people that are doing shit.
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: It's like, it's weird. There's a lot of comedy podcasts.
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: And some of them are good. Some of them, it's like,
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: you know, I'm just outside looking in. I wish they
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: would just try to be funny. It's like, dude, it
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: takes nothing to do a funny commercial or a funny bumper.
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: You know, I love what Drewski's doing. It's like, Drewski's like.
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: This is how I would be in a sketch show.
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: This is how I would be in a movie. That guy,
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: he's literally, he's not wasting any of his time on
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: air dealing with anybody. Caring about what anybody says or
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: what anybody's doing. Every time you see Drewski, that is
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: being funny. You know what I mean? And they're tempting it.
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: And if you like it, great. If you don't like it, great.
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: Next time you see me, I'm still going to be funny. Because,
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: you know, that's what people want. Yeah.
- 1:02:37Speaker 4: I saw you early this year. You described yourself as
- 1:02:39Speaker 4: being ghetto famous.
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:02:41Speaker 4: What did you mean by that?
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: I mean, in the 90s or early 80s, yeah, we
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: weren't everywhere. People just take it for granted that we
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: were everywhere. There was a time, like even in the early,
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: early 90s, where you would remember a black person with
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: two lines in a movie. Because, you know what I mean?
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: Like Damon Wayans as the banana guy. Yeah. in Beverly
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: Hills Cop 1. Remember that? No, I don't. Damon Wayans,
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: he gets the banana in the tailpipe. He gets the
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: bananas from Damon. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:03:16Speaker 4: He'd say, here, take an extra one.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: Take two, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? Now,
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: if you're a kid in that year, you're like... So
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: Damon Wayans is.
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: F * * *.
- 1:03:26Speaker 1: Ing ghetto famous because every black person in the world
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: knows who that character is. Where a white person would
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: be like... wouldn't even register. It's like too loud.
- 1:03:36Speaker 4: I guess people don't like when you use black as
- 1:03:39Speaker 4: synonymous with ghetto.
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: Oh, okay.
- 1:03:42Speaker 3: I mean, here's the thing.
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: The Internet's not for liking. The Internet's for looking for
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: something to dislike. And the Internet refuses to acknowledge intention.
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Because you know I'm not.
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like right now, it's like, oh, okay. Yeah,
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: but I'm in New Jack City. That's the biggest movie
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: in the world to us. Yes, sir. Okay. And by
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: the way, there's no streaming services. So only we see it.
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: If you're Wesley Snipes, you are really famous in one
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: part of town and absolutely anonymous in another part of town.
- 1:04:21Speaker 4: Or a suspect.
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: Or a suspect.
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: Forget me. Especially that. So that's what ghetto famous is.
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: It's not, you know what I mean? Like you're literally,
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: no one knows you. It's just that dichotomy of being
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: famous one place and absolutely, you know, like Kid N
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: Play when they did House Party. You know how famous
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: they were to black people? You know what I mean?
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: They were movie stars. Kim plays movie stars to us.
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: You know what I mean? But they were not movie
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: stars in Hollywood. You know what I mean? In other places.
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: So that's what I'm trying, that's what I was trying
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: to convey. But the internet is not for nuance.
- 1:05:02Speaker 4: I say before we get to Misty Green, I do
- 1:05:03Speaker 4: want to stay on some black questions.
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: Oh my God. I'll tell you why. Okay. Right. Wendy
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: never went there. Right.
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: Wendy did not.
- 1:05:20Speaker 2: Because, you know, this conversation that they be having about
- 1:05:23Speaker 2: you now confuses me. Like, there's black people who have
- 1:05:25Speaker 2: accused you of making black people the punchline.
- 1:05:28Speaker 4: For white audiences.
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: I mean... And they call it cooning.
- 1:05:31Speaker 4: Does that criticism ever bother you?
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: Cooning's making stuff for white people. I've never made anything
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: for anybody but myself and my friends. So I, you know, whatever, man. Whatever.
- 1:05:41Speaker 2: I can't... Do you think a black comedian has a
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: different responsibility telling a joke about black people in front
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: of a white audience?
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: I think an artist, one of the greatest things about
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: being an artist is you get to be irresponsible and
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: you get to take chances. Okay. And the thing about
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: a comedian, if you really respect the craft and you really,
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: you know, if you really respect the craft. Again, I
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: see a lot of comedians hating on each other. You'll
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: never hear me hating on any comedian. Yeah. Ever. If
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: you really respect the craft, the audience decides what's happening
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: with this joke. And I have never seen anybody continually
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: repeat a joke that doesn't work. So, yeah, a lot
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: of what you see, especially at a comedy club, comedy
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: club to me is the gym. And I'm just working
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: it out. I don't view this thing responsible or irresponsible.
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: When you watch a stand-up special, normally... That person has
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: done these jokes a hundred times, man. And you can
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: not like them. We all have the right to not
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: like somebody. But yeah, it's a lot more work goes
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: into it than any records you're going to play. You
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: know what I mean? Comedians have the hardest job in
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: the world. You know that part of every musical show
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: you go to where the person goes, hey, now we're
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: going to do some new stuff.
- 1:06:58Speaker 4: Yes.
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: And people go to the bathroom. Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:07:02Speaker 4: As you point out.
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: That's comedians. That's comedians for hours. I'm going to do
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: nothing but new stuff and blow your mind. That's what
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: every comedian does. Okay. Let's talk about Mr. Green.
- 1:07:16Speaker 6: I heard the reason why you wanted to do this film,
- 1:07:19Speaker 6: but explain to people what, you know, your idea of
- 1:07:21Speaker 6: this film, how it came about.
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: I mean, the first kernel of it was watching an actress,
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: a well-known actress, to me anyway.
- 1:07:28Speaker 4: And you won't say her name, right?
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: I'm not going to say her name. And she was
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: doing this thing called the Loop Group. It's, you know,
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: at the bottom of the.
- 1:07:34Speaker 4: Barrel, movie-wise.
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: And so I started, okay... How about a movie about
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: an actress? How about a struggling actress? How about, what
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: if she's kind of her own worst enemy, like in
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: Uncut Gems? What if I can make this character interesting?
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: Because a lot of times you see, in TV, every
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: black woman's a judge. You know what I mean? Or
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: they're very perfect. And to me, characters with flaws are
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: the best to play. You know what I mean?
- 1:08:05Speaker 7: Just putting her in the lead as a Black actress, right?
- 1:08:07Speaker 7: Like Black woman actress. I saw the comment you said
- 1:08:09Speaker 7: when you were like, you've been saying how like Black
- 1:08:11Speaker 7: women have it rough in Hollywood because like they're not
- 1:08:13Speaker 7: being hired even if they are really good.
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:08:15Speaker 7: There are people that are discovering her for the first
- 1:08:17Speaker 7: time or will through this movie.
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:08:19Speaker 7: I watch it and I'm like, she's so freaking talented.
- 1:08:23Speaker 7: And she's talking about she wasn't working.
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: Yeah, she's on a show called Slow Horses now. Season
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: six or whatever. But yeah, I mean, we don't own studios.
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: Black people pretty much live exactly where they lived when Dr.
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: King got shot. There's some gentrification, but for the most part,
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: we are exactly where we were. Yes, gentrification. Beyonce has
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: a better record deal than Aretha Franklin.
- 1:08:49Speaker 12: Yes!
- 1:08:49Speaker 15: You know what I mean?
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Maybe I make more percentage
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: money than Flip Wilson. You know what I mean? And
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: you're doing better than Frankie Crocker. But in some ways...
- 1:08:59Speaker 1: we're worse off because we don't control... Hey, we used
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: to own the radio. We used to own the radio.
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: We used to own record labels. You had to have
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: a positive rap record on an album to be released.
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: That does not exist anymore. Hey, the first... NWA song
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: you heard was Express Yourself. It was not straight out
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: of Compton, okay? iHeartRadio don't give a f * * *
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: about black youth, okay? Enlightenment.
- 1:09:30Speaker 4: It's not intentional.
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: Oh, it's intentional.
- 1:09:33Speaker 4: You think so? Yeah, mother f * * * er.
- 1:09:37Speaker 4: But they could play it. If that music was being made.
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: Again, black men, grown men, and black women used to
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: own radio stations and record labels. And they would mentor
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: young artists. That's true. They didn't tell them exactly what
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: to do, but they would go, hey, belly melt, why
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: don't your child is born in no state of mind?
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: You know, like.
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: They would give him a little shove or go, hey,
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: you really want to say that? Nah, white men don't
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: give a f * * * about our children.
- 1:10:12Speaker 4: You still on the Ryu Ryu app?
- 1:10:14Speaker 7: Ryu.
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: No, I'm not off it, but I'm not like actively looking.
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: I'm not actively looking. Put it that way. I've just
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: been busy. I've been busy, you know.
- 1:10:26Speaker 4: I have to ass off.
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:10:28Speaker 4: Are you still as horny as you once were?
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: I saw a picture and then he just.
- 1:10:37Speaker 7: Seen, I don't know what he looking at that made
- 1:10:41Speaker 7: you ask that.
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: I'm really on the breakfast club. Some things never change.
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: Now the Wendy's coming out.
- 1:10:56Speaker 4: Chris Rock, ladies and gentlemen.
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: Make sure y'all go check out Friday.
- 1:10:59Speaker 7: Friday.
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: It's Friday. All right.
- 1:11:01Speaker 4: It's the Breakfast Club. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: You're trying to be a fake-ass Charlamagne.
- 1:11:05Speaker 4: Some donkey today just saw themselves.
- 1:11:07Speaker 5: I've been watching, Charlamagne.
- 1:11:08Speaker 4: I was ready for you.
- 1:11:09Speaker 3: I'm a donkey.
- 1:11:11Speaker 4: I never heard of a donkey the other day. What
- 1:11:13Speaker 4: is it?
- 1:11:14Speaker 8: I'm a donkey.
- 1:11:15Speaker 4: Say it again, Charlamagne. I'm a donkey. Yes. You are
- 1:11:20Speaker 4: a donkey.
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: I'll show you how to act a donkey. Everything that
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: Charlamagne is saying is true.
- 1:11:25Speaker 4: Yes, talk of the day for Tuesday, October 6th, right?
- 1:11:28Speaker 4: It's October 6th? Yes, October 6th.
- 1:11:31Speaker 2: Goes to a 26-year-old Georgian man named Abdul Hakeem Rashid. Now,
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: Abdul decided he wanted to eat at one of the
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: greatest fine dining institutions this planet has ever seen. And
- 1:11:41Speaker 2: that place is Red Lobster. Drop on the clues bombs
- 1:11:43Speaker 2: for Red Lobster. I will never turn my back on
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: that red crustacean, okay? One of the joys of my
- 1:11:49Speaker 2: life in recent years was going to Red Lobster because
- 1:11:51Speaker 2: I wanted to support what the new CEO was doing.
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: Y'all know the CEO, the brother named... Damala, I think
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: his name, Damala Adamalakan.
- 1:11:59Speaker 5: You asking me?
- 1:12:00Speaker 4: No, I'm not. Damala Adamalakan, I think that's it. Dropping
- 1:12:05Speaker 4: the clues bombs for Mr. Adamalakan. Well, anyway, I went
- 1:12:09Speaker 4: to Red Lobster and my kids loved it.
- 1:12:11Speaker 2: Okay, that lobster shrimp pasta with those cheddar biscuits have
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: stood the test of time. So, Abdul, I understand why
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: you wanted to get some of those Land and Sea classics. But, Abdul,
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: what does your Uncle Sharla always tell you? You have
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: to act your wage, okay? And look, I know times
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: is hard for folks nowadays, but the problem isn't that
- 1:12:29Speaker 2: you don't have any money. The problem is the decisions
- 1:12:32Speaker 2: you make when you don't have any money. Let's go
- 1:12:35Speaker 2: to Fox 5 Atlanta for the report, please.
- 1:12:37Speaker 17: He couldn't pay the bill, so police say he called
- 1:12:40Speaker 17: 911 instead. They tell us 26-year-old Abdul Hakim Rashid was
- 1:12:43Speaker 17: at a Red Lobster in Douglasville when he realized he
- 1:12:46Speaker 17: couldn't pay his $ 63.
- 1:12:47Speaker 15: 77 tabs.
- 1:12:47Speaker 17: According to police.
- 1:12:50Speaker 17: He told staff he was having a medical emergency, then
- 1:12:53Speaker 17: called 911 himself. But when officers and first responders got there,
- 1:12:57Speaker 17: they say they found nothing wrong. Investigators allege the emergency
- 1:13:02Speaker 17: was just a ruse to get out of pain. Rashid
- 1:13:04Speaker 17: was arrested and faces charges including theft of services and
- 1:13:07Speaker 17: unlawful conduct during a 911 call.
- 1:13:10Speaker 4: I'm not sick. I'm just broke. Okay. This is what
- 1:13:12Speaker 4: donkey of the day is all about. Teachable moments.
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: These beautiful life lessons. God puts right in front of us. Abdul, Abdul, Abdul,
- 1:13:20Speaker 2: my brother. We've all had moments when the money wasn't money.
- 1:13:24Speaker 4: Okay.
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: But there's a difference between being broke. and making decisions
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: that can make you broker. Okay, this man allegedly didn't
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: want to deal with a $ 63.
- 1:13:33Speaker 4: 77 problem.
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: So he created a $ 4, 500 problem because that's how much
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: his bond is. Okay, not only did he not do
- 1:13:42Speaker 2: his jail math.
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: He didn't do any math at all. OK, but this
- 1:13:46Speaker 2: is a textbook jail map example. You know what jail
- 1:13:50Speaker 2: map is. Can you afford to do whatever it is
- 1:13:53Speaker 2: you're about to do? OK, he created a problem that
- 1:13:57Speaker 2: was 70 times the amount of the original problem. And
- 1:14:00Speaker 2: that's not even factoring in the attorney. He probably going
- 1:14:03Speaker 2: to have to pay. OK, ladies and gentlemen, today's lesson
- 1:14:06Speaker 2: is very simple.
- 1:14:07Speaker 4: Act your life.
- 1:14:09Speaker 2: Wage okay don't make an expensive decision trying to avoid
- 1:14:12Speaker 2: a cheap problem all right you get a.
- 1:14:14Speaker 4: Parking ticket Don't want to pay it. Ignore it. Now
- 1:14:17Speaker 4: you got late fees.
- 1:14:18Speaker 2: OK, you owe somebody some money instead of calling them
- 1:14:21Speaker 2: and say, hey, man, I don't got it right now.
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: You avoid them for six months. Now you've lost the
- 1:14:24Speaker 2: relationship and you still owe them money. OK, you don't
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: have no money to go out with your friends, but
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: you're embarrassed to tell everybody you ain't got it. So
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: you go anyway and you put the whole night on
- 1:14:35Speaker 2: a credit card. Now you're paying interest on some hot
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: honey chicken wings and Captain Migos. You done pooped and
- 1:14:40Speaker 2: peed out three months ago. OK, it's never the problem
- 1:14:44Speaker 2: that destroys you. It's your response to the problem that
- 1:14:48Speaker 2: can hurt you. OK, now, to be fair, I don't
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: know Abdul's financial situation. OK, the reporting doesn't establish whether
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: he literally, you know, didn't have the sixty three seventy seven.
- 1:14:57Speaker 4: I simply didn't want to pay the bill.
- 1:14:59Speaker 2: But let's just say for the sake of the lesson
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: and the razzle dazzle of the donkey, let's just say
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: he didn't really have it. OK, well, Abdul, if that's
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: the case. You don't get no cheddar cheese biscuits. OK,
- 1:15:09Speaker 2: it's just that simple.
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:15:10Speaker 4: You was craving lobster and shrimp linguine. I get it.
- 1:15:13Speaker 4: But you know what lasts longer than a craving? A
- 1:15:16Speaker 4: criminal case. If you don't got it, you can't have it.
- 1:15:21Speaker 7: And there is.
- 1:15:22Speaker 4: Nothing wrong with admitting I don't have it right now.
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: OK, there is no shame in not having money, but
- 1:15:30Speaker 2: there should be shame in letting your ego make financial
- 1:15:33Speaker 2: decisions for you. OK, Abdul called 9-1-1 because he couldn't
- 1:15:36Speaker 2: afford Red Lobster. Abdul, do you realize those resources exist
- 1:15:40Speaker 2: for people who are actually in danger? Somebody could have
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: been having a heart attack. Somebody could have been in
- 1:15:45Speaker 2: a car accident. Somebody could have been dealing with any
- 1:15:48Speaker 2: type of real emergency. OK, but instead, emergency personnel had
- 1:15:52Speaker 2: to respond to you not being able to afford the
- 1:15:55Speaker 2: Lobster Lovers Duo. Okay, this is why Red Lobster don't
- 1:15:58Speaker 2: do all you can eat shrimp no more. I don't
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: know what that has to do with anything.
- 1:16:03Speaker 4: I don't know what that has to do with anything.
- 1:16:05Speaker 2: I just feel like it's people like Abdul who ruined
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: the all you can eat shrimp for the rest of us. Okay, anyway, Abdul,
- 1:16:12Speaker 2: you couldn't afford Red Lobster. So I know you can't
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: afford these charges. Okay, listen to me, people. The advice
- 1:16:17Speaker 2: I'm about to tell you can save your life. Sometimes
- 1:16:20Speaker 2: the most financially responsible sentence you can say is, I
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: can't afford that.
- 1:16:25Speaker 4: Okay? Accu-age.
- 1:16:27Speaker 1: All right?
- 1:16:28Speaker 4: Please give Abdul, Hakeem, Rasheed the sweet sounds of the Hamiltones.
- 1:16:32Speaker 15: Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. Oh,
- 1:16:39Speaker 15: you are the donkey of the day.
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: Yee-haw.
- 1:16:49Speaker 2: And you can have Red Lobster at the house, okay?
- 1:16:51Speaker 2: At Walmart right now.
- 1:16:53Speaker 4: Red Lobster. Frozen cheddar baked biscuits. Ready to bake.
- 1:16:56Speaker 3: That's right.
- 1:16:58Speaker 4: Eight in a box.
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: $ 4. 96.
- 1:16:59Speaker 4: Yeah, and then... Have you tried it? Are they good, though?
- 1:17:01Speaker 7: Yeah, they are.
- 1:17:03Speaker 9: My mother-in-law buys that mix, and she makes them, and
- 1:17:05Speaker 9: they're really good. But, yo, he got to pay for
- 1:17:07Speaker 9: the ambulance, too.
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: For real?
- 1:17:09Speaker 7: That's a whole other bill, yeah.
- 1:17:10Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, you're right.
- 1:17:11Speaker 7: Because they came, and nothing was wrong with them either.
- 1:17:13Speaker 4: You're right.
- 1:17:15Speaker 9: When you said $ 4, 500, I'm like, that's about how much
- 1:17:17Speaker 9: it is for ambulances.
- 1:17:18Speaker 4: The ambulance, the bail.
- 1:17:21Speaker 7: The lawyer, like you said.
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: Damn, bro.
- 1:17:23Speaker 4: Expensive biscuits for him. All right.
- 1:17:25Speaker 6: Thank you for that donkey today. Now, when we come back,
- 1:17:27Speaker 6: Miss Angela Rye will be joining us. She has a
- 1:17:30Speaker 6: new show that comes out tomorrow at 9 p.m. It's
- 1:17:32Speaker 6: called Cite Your Sauce. She's going to tell us all
- 1:17:34Speaker 6: about it. It's The Breakfast Club.
- 1:17:35Speaker 4: Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious,
- 1:17:39Speaker 4: Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lawna Rose
- 1:17:42Speaker 4: is here as well. We got a special guest in
- 1:17:43Speaker 4: the building. Yes, indeed. She's always here, ladies and gentlemen.
- 1:17:46Speaker 4: She's part of the show, damn it.
- 1:17:47Speaker 3: Ladies and gentlemen, Angela Rye.
- 1:17:48Speaker 2: Welcome.
- 1:17:49Speaker 15: Hey.
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: Hey, Rondona. What's happening?
- 1:17:51Speaker 10: Hi.
- 1:17:52Speaker 7: Hi, guys.
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: How you feeling?
- 1:17:53Speaker 7: I feel really good. I feel better. I was congested
- 1:17:56Speaker 7: last time I saw y'all.
- 1:17:57Speaker 17: Oh, yeah.
- 1:17:57Speaker 4: You were sick. You had the cooties last week.
- 1:17:59Speaker 7: I'm sorry. The cooties. It was kind of the cooties.
- 1:18:01Speaker 7: It was the cooties.
- 1:18:02Speaker 4: But you have a new show.
- 1:18:03Speaker 8: Yes.
- 1:18:04Speaker 4: I mean, you have to name it.
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: We have a new.
- 1:18:05Speaker 4: Show, brother.
- 1:18:06Speaker 12: Nice.
- 1:18:07Speaker 2: What do you mean, we?
- 1:18:08Speaker 7: You're not an executive producer.
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Girl. Do you want to try that?
- 1:18:13Speaker 7: What do you mean, we?
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: Take two. God. We.
- 1:18:16Speaker 4: Well, I'm an executive producer.
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:18:17Speaker 4: But it's still your show.
- 1:18:18Speaker 17: Yes.
- 1:18:18Speaker 4: There you go.
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: But it's called Cite Your Source. But you already have
- 1:18:20Speaker 2: Native Land Podcast. Mm-hmm.
- 1:18:22Speaker 4: What is Cite Your Source? Why is it different from
- 1:18:23Speaker 4: Native Land Podcast?
- 1:18:24Speaker 7: Cite Your Source provides us an opportunity to check people
- 1:18:28Speaker 7: on all of the misinformation that's spread online.
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
- 1:18:32Speaker 7: On our news shows how many of y'all still watch
- 1:18:34Speaker 7: the news exactly oh you do.
- 1:18:36Speaker 4: Okay that's good local local local news.
- 1:18:39Speaker 7: And then you still watch all of them for to
- 1:18:41Speaker 7: watch for facts okay so that's kind of my point
- 1:18:44Speaker 7: so i'm really frustrated by the ways in which news
- 1:18:48Speaker 7: has switched to provide information to really just looking for ratings.
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:18:54Speaker 7: And I think that it is woefully dishonest. It's irresponsible.
- 1:19:00Speaker 7: And I think we need something to make sure that...
- 1:19:04Speaker 7: we can find our new somewhere. And so one of
- 1:19:06Speaker 7: the things that came to mind was like what happened
- 1:19:09Speaker 7: with Jay, someone accusing him of being with an underage girl.
- 1:19:14Speaker 7: And so that happens, but there's also things like, this
- 1:19:17Speaker 7: is the greatest economy in the world, your president says, right?
- 1:19:20Speaker 7: So all of these things need to be fact-checked and
- 1:19:23Speaker 7: there needs to be a home for that. And that's
- 1:19:25Speaker 7: what I hope this becomes. We have someone who is
- 1:19:29Speaker 7: really incredible on the show that said, it is going
- 1:19:32Speaker 7: to be our two-step verification on the BS. And I
- 1:19:34Speaker 7: think that's the right thing.
- 1:19:36Speaker 4: So it's not just political. It's everything.
- 1:19:39Speaker 7: And actually, Amy, what I'll tell you is so many
- 1:19:41Speaker 7: of us have been hit so hard by Nolan Wells
- 1:19:44Speaker 7: and trying to figure out what happened to him. You
- 1:19:45Speaker 7: all have kids, you know, and so you understand what
- 1:19:48Speaker 7: it's like to not have your child return home and
- 1:19:51Speaker 7: never know what happened to them. Our first show is
- 1:19:54Speaker 7: going to be on modern day lynching. And we're going
- 1:19:57Speaker 7: to go with three claims. The first claim is Black
- 1:20:00Speaker 7: people don't hang themselves from trees. The second claim is
- 1:20:04Speaker 7: lynching is a thing of the past. And the third
- 1:20:06Speaker 7: claim is right now, black lives don't matter. And so
- 1:20:10Speaker 7: we'll work through those claims together with our panel to
- 1:20:14Speaker 7: talk about whether or not these things are true. And
- 1:20:17Speaker 7: then what supporting evidence do we have? And really get
- 1:20:20Speaker 7: into the depth of the conversations. We don't know what
- 1:20:22Speaker 7: happened to Nolan Wells. So we also... have to be
- 1:20:25Speaker 7: responsible about what we're putting out there. We can also,
- 1:20:28Speaker 7: you know, fuel the flame by putting stuff out just
- 1:20:32Speaker 7: to spark anger because that stuff lives in our bodies ancestrally,
- 1:20:35Speaker 7: you know? So we want to make sure we're also
- 1:20:37Speaker 7: speaking truth based on what we know and the facts
- 1:20:40Speaker 7: we have available.
- 1:20:41Speaker 4: Digital right now typing. Why should we trust you, Angela Rybread?
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:20:46Speaker 14: Robbery.
- 1:20:46Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
- 1:20:47Speaker 9: Well, no, he just said that. And that is a
- 1:20:50Speaker 9: throwback from elementary school. So thank you, Leonard, for that.
- 1:20:55Speaker 7: I think that I think that they have every right
- 1:20:57Speaker 7: to want to take time for me to earn their trust.
- 1:21:00Speaker 7: And I think that's fine. I think that they should
- 1:21:02Speaker 7: let the show speak for itself. We have a resident
- 1:21:04Speaker 7: fact checker every show and it won't be me. So
- 1:21:07Speaker 7: they don't have to trust me. They can trust that.
- 1:21:09Speaker 9: Speaking of trusting sources, right, because that's. That's why I
- 1:21:14Speaker 9: hear a lot of people say that they don't watch
- 1:21:16Speaker 9: the news anymore. You just heard Charlotte say he watches
- 1:21:18Speaker 9: it for entertainment when that's not even really supposed to
- 1:21:21Speaker 9: be the premise of the news, right?
- 1:21:24Speaker 7: What sources can you trust right now? Who can you
- 1:21:29Speaker 7: give credibility to right now? I normally will look at
- 1:21:32Speaker 7: two or three sources to see if they're saying the
- 1:21:35Speaker 7: same thing. So papers that I go to, I still
- 1:21:38Speaker 7: trust the black press. So there's Black Print Media, Washington Informer.
- 1:21:41Speaker 7: Seattle media and where I'm from in Seattle, New York times,
- 1:21:46Speaker 7: Washington post political, depending on what I'm reading, there are
- 1:21:49Speaker 7: a bunch of different sources, financial times that I look
- 1:21:53Speaker 7: to for information. And then I still will like Google
- 1:21:56Speaker 7: and check other sources to make sure the one thing
- 1:21:58Speaker 7: that I used to be able to rely on is
- 1:22:00Speaker 7: the federal government, but now they're busy putting ads up
- 1:22:02Speaker 7: with our taxpayer dollars every single week.
- 1:22:05Speaker 2: I think one of the problems is that there's so
- 1:22:06Speaker 2: much opinion. Like I don't need an opinion. I want
- 1:22:08Speaker 2: accurate information. And then let me come to my, Just
- 1:22:11Speaker 2: give me the facts of the situation.
- 1:22:14Speaker 7: I'll tell you that that will probably be the hardest
- 1:22:16Speaker 7: thing about the show for me. I have an opinion
- 1:22:18Speaker 7: about everything.
- 1:22:19Speaker 4: I don't have a problem with that as long as
- 1:22:20Speaker 4: it's rooted in factual information.
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:22:22Speaker 7: Well, sometimes it's emotional. But I think that because it's emotional,
- 1:22:26Speaker 7: it doesn't mean that it's automatically not logical. Sometimes it's
- 1:22:29Speaker 7: a hybrid of both. But I'll try to be diligent
- 1:22:32Speaker 7: about saying, this is my opinion.
- 1:22:34Speaker 4: But yeah. Who's on the panel? Because you mentioned there's
- 1:22:36Speaker 4: a panel. So who's on the panel?
- 1:22:37Speaker 7: So the modern day lynching panel will include Sabrina Fulton,
- 1:22:40Speaker 7: which is Trayvon Martin's mother. She, of course... had her
- 1:22:46Speaker 7: child killed at the hands of a vigilante. There's an
- 1:22:48Speaker 7: argument about what is lynching. If it's one person, does
- 1:22:51Speaker 7: that constitute a lynching? Roger Mitchell, who was the independent
- 1:22:57Speaker 7: forensic pathologist that did Nolan Wells' independent autopsy, will be
- 1:23:02Speaker 7: on the show.
- 1:23:03Speaker 4: We break some of that down, too, because I just seen,
- 1:23:04Speaker 4: I guess, a video of them cleaning the boat after
- 1:23:08Speaker 4: they all got off. And they said it was weird
- 1:23:09Speaker 4: that he was cleaning the boat at three, four in
- 1:23:10Speaker 4: the morning. So we break all those stories down as well.
- 1:23:13Speaker 7: You know, I think that we should talk about what
- 1:23:15Speaker 7: that is. But we don't have any real information on,
- 1:23:18Speaker 7: you know, what happened on the boat. Um, so I
- 1:23:21Speaker 7: don't know that Roger will talk about what happened on
- 1:23:23Speaker 7: the boat. Um, cause that again goes back to those
- 1:23:26Speaker 7: theories and those are the theories that enrage us. Um,
- 1:23:29Speaker 7: in addition to that, our independent fact checker will be
- 1:23:33Speaker 7: Ernest Krim the third. He's a history professor out of Chicago.
- 1:23:37Speaker 7: Really incredible. If y'all don't follow him, you should. And then, um,
- 1:23:40Speaker 7: who am I missing? I'm missing somebody. Oh, we have, no,
- 1:23:44Speaker 7: but he asked me about this panel on modern day. It's, um,
- 1:23:49Speaker 7: Deontay Johnson, who is the black, he's the president of
- 1:23:53Speaker 7: the Black Conservative Federation. Definitely black. Deontay Johnson? You didn't
- 1:23:57Speaker 7: tell me that.
- 1:23:57Speaker 4: You looking at me like I ain't help. Last time
- 1:23:59Speaker 4: we talked, you didn't have the panel yet.
- 1:24:02Speaker 7: What kind of EP are you?
- 1:24:03Speaker 4: I'm just kidding.
- 1:24:04Speaker 7: I know, Bernie.
- 1:24:05Speaker 8: I know.
- 1:24:06Speaker 7: No, I'm studying his face.
- 1:24:07Speaker 3: Like, I really didn't tell him this.
- 1:24:09Speaker 7: I'm like, really?
- 1:24:10Speaker 4: So every week it changes depending on what you guys
- 1:24:12Speaker 4: are discussing.
- 1:24:13Speaker 7: So the next show will be on school choice. And
- 1:24:16Speaker 7: part of the reason for that conversation, I know y'all
- 1:24:18Speaker 7: have talked a little bit about Nicole Hannah-Jones' piece in
- 1:24:20Speaker 7: the New York Times Magazine that sparked a lot of
- 1:24:23Speaker 7: discussion and debate, a lot of judgment, too. But I
- 1:24:26Speaker 7: think it's really important for us to have these conversations
- 1:24:29Speaker 7: in earnest. We talk about things in big picture policy,
- 1:24:32Speaker 7: but not necessarily how that policy impacts our homes. So, like,
- 1:24:35Speaker 7: if you're talking about school choice and you want public
- 1:24:37Speaker 7: schools to be funded at the rates they should, of
- 1:24:39Speaker 7: course we do. But are you sending your kid to
- 1:24:42Speaker 7: that school as is right now with no changes?
- 1:24:44Speaker 4: Is she going to be on, Nicole?
- 1:24:46Speaker 7: I hope so. We'll see. We'll see.
- 1:24:47Speaker 4: I know the ask is up.
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:24:49Speaker 4: Well, I don't know that, but I just... Oh, see?
- 1:24:50Speaker 7: I didn't even know. I mean, this is an irresponsible
- 1:24:54Speaker 7: ass EP. I just don't even know. I just don't
- 1:24:58Speaker 7: even know. What are you doing? How you happen with
- 1:25:00Speaker 7: the show?
- 1:25:01Speaker 4: Do you think we've reached the point?
- 1:25:02Speaker 7: Oh, you don't want to answer that question?
- 1:25:03Speaker 15: No.
- 1:25:03Speaker 12: Wow.
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:25:05Speaker 2: Do you think we've reached the point where people don't
- 1:25:07Speaker 2: actually care if something is true anymore?
- 1:25:09Speaker 4: As long as it confirms what they already believe?
- 1:25:12Speaker 7: I'm sure that's true for some people. But I believe
- 1:25:14Speaker 7: there are a lot more people who've checked out because
- 1:25:16Speaker 7: they do want to know the truth. And they're like,
- 1:25:18Speaker 7: if I can't find the truth here, I'm just going
- 1:25:19Speaker 7: to check out.
- 1:25:21Speaker 4: I just wonder how many people approach these shows in
- 1:25:24Speaker 4: good faith.
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: Like, you know what?
- 1:25:25Speaker 2: I actually want to learn. And I'm willing to change
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: my mind if I am actually presented with facts. Or
- 1:25:29Speaker 2: do you approach it like, I already believe what I believe,
- 1:25:32Speaker 2: and I'm standing on that?
- 1:25:33Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 1:25:34Speaker 7: Honestly, if it were me, I think that it would
- 1:25:36Speaker 7: depend on who was the host and who was the panel.
- 1:25:38Speaker 7: I'm just not even going to lie to you. Like,
- 1:25:40Speaker 7: I'm like, do I... Like, if Fox News is putting
- 1:25:42Speaker 7: this on, I'm like, come on. Like, I don't believe
- 1:25:44Speaker 7: anything that y'all got up. I'm trying... Maybe if it
- 1:25:47Speaker 7: was PBS. Like, if it was something on PBS, I'd
- 1:25:49Speaker 7: be like... maybe NPR something more neutral you know do
- 1:25:54Speaker 7: you think that neutral is a thing in those because
- 1:25:55Speaker 7: I was gonna ask you how will you or will
- 1:25:57Speaker 7: you guys even try to have that neutral straight through
- 1:26:00Speaker 7: the middle point because there's not a lot of news
- 1:26:03Speaker 7: like that you watch Fox for one thing CNN for
- 1:26:05Speaker 7: another people would argue you watch PBS and NPR for
- 1:26:07Speaker 7: another thing as well too but Yeah, I think this
- 1:26:10Speaker 7: is going to just it's going to be mostly black. Like,
- 1:26:12Speaker 7: I think that my if there's a middle of the
- 1:26:14Speaker 7: road for me is black. Like, what is right for
- 1:26:16Speaker 7: black people? And we're like, where do we align? Where
- 1:26:18Speaker 7: can we agree to disagree? And is there an end
- 1:26:20Speaker 7: goal that we're trying to reach that's rooted in facts?
- 1:26:23Speaker 7: I'm sure there will be times where we have other,
- 1:26:26Speaker 7: you know, people, other people of color, maybe white folks on.
- 1:26:28Speaker 7: But right now, I want to hit issues that are
- 1:26:30Speaker 7: hardest hitting for us. Reparations. Who should get them? Should
- 1:26:33Speaker 7: we use the N-word? You know, school choice. I know
- 1:26:36Speaker 7: you did a donkey of the day on this. I
- 1:26:38Speaker 7: appreciate it. It's great.
- 1:26:39Speaker 4: Now, is it just for political season or is it
- 1:26:41Speaker 4: past that?
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: Well, I hope so.
- 1:26:42Speaker 4: For political season, we always do a big press, a
- 1:26:44Speaker 4: big push.
- 1:26:44Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 1:26:45Speaker 4: Then once it's over, we kind of just.
- 1:26:48Speaker 7: I think the thing you might appreciate about this is
- 1:26:50Speaker 7: these aren't issues that we're dealing with directly that are on, like,
- 1:26:54Speaker 7: the ballot. You know, at least not... top. We don't
- 1:26:58Speaker 7: have a Medicare for All show coming up before the election.
- 1:27:02Speaker 7: Or should there be Medicare for All? What's really wrong
- 1:27:04Speaker 7: with Medicare? Although I think that's a discussion worth having.
- 1:27:07Speaker 7: I really just want to engage people in factual debate
- 1:27:11Speaker 7: so we can break through, not just for voters, but
- 1:27:13Speaker 7: I want people to have, like, I want there to
- 1:27:16Speaker 7: be an engaged, not just electorate, but engaged citizens. So
- 1:27:19Speaker 7: if we can have some role in that, I think
- 1:27:21Speaker 7: that would be great.
- 1:27:22Speaker 6: My other question to you is, How do we know
- 1:27:26Speaker 6: that you are supplying the right facts, right? But sometimes
- 1:27:29Speaker 6: we'll look online and somebody that we think should have
- 1:27:32Speaker 6: the right facts has it wrong. Or some newscaster or some,
- 1:27:36Speaker 6: you know, newspaper has the wrong facts. And we're like,
- 1:27:38Speaker 6: we know that's not right, but people are believing it
- 1:27:41Speaker 6: because of where it's coming from. So how do we
- 1:27:43Speaker 6: know that you won't be following the same line that
- 1:27:44Speaker 6: they follow and that actually have.
- 1:27:46Speaker 5: The right facts?
- 1:27:47Speaker 7: Well, two things. The first thing is we have a
- 1:27:49Speaker 7: resident fact checker. So if I say something wrong, fact
- 1:27:52Speaker 7: checker got to get me too.
- 1:27:53Speaker 4: But you're paying them though.
- 1:27:55Speaker 1: What?
- 1:27:55Speaker 7: I'm not paying them?
- 1:27:57Speaker 4: Well, people are paying the fact checkers.
- 1:27:58Speaker 7: Are you paying the fact checkers?
- 1:27:59Speaker 2: Yeah, he is.
- 1:28:00Speaker 4: Because he said people.
- 1:28:01Speaker 3: Look at him.
- 1:28:01Speaker 4: He's like, or people.
- 1:28:03Speaker 3: The fact checker.
- 1:28:04Speaker 4: It's an independent fact checker.
- 1:28:05Speaker 7: Yes, the fact checker is not getting paid.
- 1:28:07Speaker 4: Okay.
- 1:28:08Speaker 7: Okay.
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: First of all.
- 1:28:08Speaker 7: The fact checker's not your friend. The fact checker... Well,
- 1:28:11Speaker 7: we're cool.
- 1:28:11Speaker 4: So, Charlamagne's not the fact checker.
- 1:28:13Speaker 7: Charlamagne cannot be the fact checker. He don't know nothing. So,
- 1:28:17Speaker 7: here's the thing. I think the other thing is that's
- 1:28:19Speaker 7: important is I hope people at home start to fact
- 1:28:22Speaker 7: check us. Start to fact check... Their Instagrams start to
- 1:28:26Speaker 7: fact check the news they're reading. So we want people
- 1:28:28Speaker 7: to fact check. That's not true because this, cite your source.
- 1:28:31Speaker 7: What are the sources that you're relying on? So Envy, watch.
- 1:28:34Speaker 7: And if we get something wrong, tell us we're wrong
- 1:28:36Speaker 7: and then cite your source.
- 1:28:37Speaker 6: But my thing is, is there an independent fact checker?
- 1:28:39Speaker 6: Somebody that you don't know, that they don't know, that
- 1:28:41Speaker 6: the other side of this bias.
- 1:28:42Speaker 7: Now how are we going to get them on the
- 1:28:43Speaker 7: show if I don't know? We got to get them somehow.
- 1:28:45Speaker 4: I mean, obviously that. But to make sure that they're
- 1:28:46Speaker 4: an independent person, that they're just checking the facts and not.
- 1:28:50Speaker 4: Basing off of I lean towards this side or I
- 1:28:52Speaker 4: lean towards that side. Angela will be getting fact checked too.
- 1:28:55Speaker 7: Well, here's the most important thing. I think that where
- 1:28:58Speaker 7: we will land is the fact checkers most important role
- 1:29:02Speaker 7: and how they present themselves online and everywhere else is.
- 1:29:05Speaker 7: They want to make sure people know the truth about
- 1:29:07Speaker 7: black history, for example, for this show. So if I'm
- 1:29:10Speaker 7: saying something that's incorrect or just overly inflammatory, just to
- 1:29:13Speaker 7: incite the audience, they're going to say, well, I understand
- 1:29:16Speaker 7: why you might feel that way, but here are the
- 1:29:18Speaker 7: actual facts. I think that's the one commitment we can make.
- 1:29:21Speaker 7: And hopefully even the panelists come on with that intention
- 1:29:24Speaker 7: in mind. Now we do have a conservative on this show.
- 1:29:27Speaker 7: I don't know where he lands on lynching on modern
- 1:29:30Speaker 7: day lynching. He may think, That lynching is a thing
- 1:29:33Speaker 7: of the past. The facts don't necessarily bear that out
- 1:29:36Speaker 7: to be true. So we'll see. Have you ever repeated
- 1:29:39Speaker 7: something that was wrong?
- 1:29:42Speaker 1: Oh, all the time.
- 1:29:42Speaker 7: And then you go back. You later find out like, oh, damn,
- 1:29:44Speaker 7: that was wrong. I used to do it, especially on CNN.
- 1:29:48Speaker 7: I would get a statistic wrong and I would go
- 1:29:49Speaker 7: on Twitter and be like, I'm so sorry I said
- 1:29:51Speaker 7: this online, but I really meant 90%. I said 9%.
- 1:29:54Speaker 7: or something like that. I don't mind fact-checking myself. I
- 1:29:57Speaker 7: definitely do not want to give bad information. I have
- 1:30:01Speaker 7: definitely done it. Talking too fast. I'll be doing that
- 1:30:04Speaker 7: all the time. And then I'll be like, I meant this.
- 1:30:07Speaker 7: And he'll be like, it doesn't matter what you meant.
- 1:30:08Speaker 7: Your word is your word.
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: And I'm like.
- 1:30:10Speaker 7: How are you going to listen to somebody that replaces
- 1:30:12Speaker 7: H's for K's? Yeah, you're right. But I mean, it's
- 1:30:14Speaker 7: a scrimp. Some of the stuff he'd be screaming would
- 1:30:17Speaker 7: be like, that's not what it's called.
- 1:30:18Speaker 4: You don't like scrimp or grits?
- 1:30:20Speaker 7: I do, but I just don't like the way you
- 1:30:21Speaker 7: hear me say it. I'm going to say it's shrimp. Yeah,
- 1:30:23Speaker 7: hearing you say it just sounds like you're about to
- 1:30:24Speaker 7: spit on me. I don't know.
- 1:30:25Speaker 3: I don't know exactly what it was, but I heard.
- 1:30:27Speaker 7: Something a few months ago, right, that there were.
- 1:30:31Speaker 4: About to be all the news stations.
- 1:30:33Speaker 3: Were about to be ran by one group.
- 1:30:46Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:30:46Speaker 15: Whatever, right?
- 1:30:46Speaker 7: Like, is that true or was that fake?
- 1:30:48Speaker 4: Oh, you're talking about the Paramount?
- 1:30:49Speaker 7: Yeah, the Paramount merger, Warner Brothers merger. That is pretty significant.
- 1:30:53Speaker 7: And I think if it happens, you know, second to
- 1:30:57Speaker 7: state-run media, that could be really scary. Particularly if you
- 1:31:01Speaker 7: look at how This initial group that purchased Paramount began
- 1:31:05Speaker 7: to run CBS News. They put someone in place named
- 1:31:08Speaker 7: Barry Weiss, who is super conservative. One of the first
- 1:31:11Speaker 7: things she did was go into this, you know, 60 Minutes.
- 1:31:14Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:31:15Speaker 7: Which is a source that I normally would have told
- 1:31:17Speaker 7: you I would rely on. They've changed quite a bit.
- 1:31:20Speaker 7: I think maybe the last credible thing that we saw
- 1:31:23Speaker 7: in there was a little bit was Lil Boosie on
- 1:31:24Speaker 7: there talking about his pardon. So that was his story.
- 1:31:28Speaker 7: I believe his story. He definitely got bopped for 600K
- 1:31:30Speaker 7: for paying for a pardon he didn't get. But I
- 1:31:34Speaker 7: think that if they don't have some barometers in place
- 1:31:36Speaker 7: like an editorial board and other things to ensure that
- 1:31:39Speaker 7: the news remains fair and balanced and trustworthy, factual, they'll
- 1:31:45Speaker 7: continue to have a problem. Especially, I think, The day
- 1:31:49Speaker 7: that Donald Trump said that he wasn't going to allow Politico, CNN,
- 1:31:53Speaker 7: or MSNBC into the White House press corps, they launched
- 1:31:57Speaker 7: Trump TV. That's state-run media. I mean, how close to
- 1:32:01Speaker 7: communism are we right now? So yeah, it is a
- 1:32:04Speaker 7: real issue.
- 1:32:04Speaker 4: And they need some cultural integration in that whole situation.
- 1:32:08Speaker 15: Who?
- 1:32:09Speaker 4: That whole merger. They need some cultural integration.
- 1:32:10Speaker 7: But all of these outlets do, really.
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: Absolutely.
- 1:32:12Speaker 7: You know, like there was a commitment post the murder
- 1:32:15Speaker 7: of George Floyd. Um, you know, there were all this,
- 1:32:19Speaker 7: you all know all this money flowing opportunities for us.
- 1:32:22Speaker 7: And then they were like, okay, we fired up away
- 1:32:23Speaker 7: from that. Now we're anti DEI again.
- 1:32:25Speaker 4: It's not good.
- 1:32:27Speaker 2: My final question. If the mission of Cite Your Source works, right?
- 1:32:31Speaker 2: What do you want somebody to do differently after watching?
- 1:32:34Speaker 7: I want, um, so one of the things we're going
- 1:32:36Speaker 7: to do, um, every time there's a fact check moment,
- 1:32:39Speaker 7: you know, the, the, um, independent fact checker. hits the buzzer,
- 1:32:44Speaker 7: record scratches, the whole show stops to cite your source.
- 1:32:48Speaker 7: I want everybody to do that when they're scrolling online.
- 1:32:51Speaker 7: To hear a record scratch, to hear a pause, like
- 1:32:53Speaker 7: this can't go on. I'm going to put in the
- 1:32:55Speaker 7: comments that this is wrong. I'm going to put in
- 1:32:57Speaker 7: the community note this is wrong. In conversation, you know,
- 1:33:00Speaker 7: when people reference the Willie Lynch letter, you know, maybe
- 1:33:03Speaker 7: they're like, how do you know that's real? I want
- 1:33:05Speaker 7: people to stop and really ask the questions that we
- 1:33:08Speaker 7: were taught to ask in school. This shouldn't be that
- 1:33:10Speaker 7: hard for us. And I think If we start having
- 1:33:12Speaker 7: more earnest conversations, one, we'll be less prone to canceling
- 1:33:16Speaker 7: somebody just because their opinion is different from ours. And two,
- 1:33:20Speaker 7: agree on the end goal and work backwards from there.
- 1:33:23Speaker 7: That's what I hope happens.
- 1:33:24Speaker 4: When does this launch? When can people start watching it?
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:33:26Speaker 7: So Cite Your Source is at Cite Your Source on YouTube.
- 1:33:30Speaker 7: It will be launching at 9 p.m. Eastern on Wednesday.
- 1:33:34Speaker 7: So we want to get those subscriber numbers up and

- 1:34:14Speaker 1: Tell her! Tell her! Made it!
- 1:34:16Speaker 4: She gets them from somebody that knows somebody. She gets
- 1:34:18Speaker 4: the details.
- 1:34:18Speaker 7: I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything
- 1:34:21Speaker 7: and everything.
- 1:34:22Speaker 4: Talk to me. I don't know why my mic is naked.
- 1:34:24Speaker 4: I don't know where the thing is.
- 1:34:26Speaker 1: Oh my God.
- 1:34:27Speaker 4: Probably fell on the floor. It was on the floor.
- 1:34:42Speaker 4: All right, y'all.
- 1:34:43Speaker 7: I can't find nothing. When am I ever just looking
- 1:34:45Speaker 7: for stuff?
- 1:34:46Speaker 3: You can't find nothing. Shut up.
- 1:34:49Speaker 4: Shut up.
- 1:34:49Speaker 8: Shut up.
- 1:34:50Speaker 1: Shut up. All right, y'all.
- 1:34:52Speaker 7: Let's get into the latest. So today, my podcast, well,
- 1:34:55Speaker 7: my audio series with iHeart, Love Lately with Lauren LaRosa
- 1:34:59Speaker 7: is live everywhere you listen to your podcast. So this
- 1:35:03Speaker 7: is a show that is about love, relationships, sexual health,
- 1:35:06Speaker 7: and everything in between. We did a live conversation with
- 1:35:09Speaker 7: Ciara in Vegas and got into some things. That episode
- 1:35:12Speaker 7: is now live. Let's take a listen to a preview
- 1:35:14Speaker 7: of the episode.
- 1:35:15Speaker 14: Something I say about like meeting Russ, you know, from
- 1:35:18Speaker 14: day one is the equally yoked actor. When you're sharing,
- 1:35:21Speaker 14: when you're on the same wavelength, it's game changing because
- 1:35:24Speaker 14: you're literally kind of moving to the same beat of
- 1:35:26Speaker 14: the drum every day together. So it's like it just flows.
- 1:35:30Speaker 14: I can be who I am fully. He can be
- 1:35:32Speaker 14: who he is fully.
- 1:35:33Speaker 7: And it works.
- 1:35:34Speaker 4: Right.
- 1:35:34Speaker 14: And I can say I love that about my husband.
- 1:35:36Speaker 14: He celebrates me in every way possible. He lifts me
- 1:35:39Speaker 14: up in every way possible. One of the cutest things
- 1:35:42Speaker 14: he said to me early on, he was like, you know,
- 1:35:43Speaker 14: when I take my hairpiece off, he's like, that's my
- 1:35:46Speaker 14: favorite style.
- 1:35:47Speaker 7: Now he love to meek?
- 1:35:48Speaker 3: He like them braids.
- 1:35:49Speaker 7: He love to meek? Okay, I know that's right, right.
- 1:35:52Speaker 14: So I like that, you know, that he would say
- 1:35:55Speaker 14: that to me.
- 1:35:55Speaker 11: That was so sweet and empowering, you know.
- 1:35:58Speaker 14: Now I'd be trying to put my hairpiece on quick
- 1:36:00Speaker 14: and I'm like this.
- 1:36:02Speaker 7: I try to keep it cute all the time. Because
- 1:36:04Speaker 7: you wasn't sleeping with the hairpiece in the beginning, was you?
- 1:36:07Speaker 7: What do you think?
- 1:36:07Speaker 14: Of course I slept with the hairpiece.
- 1:36:09Speaker 7: Okay.
- 1:36:11Speaker 11: Hairpiece Natty Ryan.
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: It's okay.
- 1:36:13Speaker 7: I didn't see what type of girl you were. Because,
- 1:36:15Speaker 7: you know, some girls come in in the beginning, it's like, boom,
- 1:36:17Speaker 7: here you go. And then other girls, it's like, I'm
- 1:36:19Speaker 7: going to slowly, like, you know, first it's a scarf.
- 1:36:21Speaker 7: Then it's like, oh, it's a little disheveled.
- 1:36:23Speaker 4: Yes.
- 1:36:24Speaker 7: And then it's like all the way on.
- 1:36:25Speaker 1: All right. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:36:26Speaker 7: There's stages.
- 1:36:28Speaker 5: Where is it available?
- 1:36:29Speaker 7: It is available everywhere you listen to your podcast. You
- 1:36:30Speaker 7: can listen to it on the iHeartRadio app as well, too.
- 1:36:33Speaker 7: But wherever you listen to podcasts, it is available. So,
- 1:36:35Speaker 7: bi-weekly show.
- 1:36:36Speaker 4: Congrats.
- 1:36:37Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:36:37Speaker 7: Our first go-round is eight episodes. So, we'll see what
- 1:36:40Speaker 7: happens after that. And it's very necessary right now. I
- 1:36:42Speaker 7: love that. Talking about all things love and just, you know.
- 1:36:45Speaker 7: And actual education, too.
- 1:36:47Speaker 4: B.S.
- 1:36:48Speaker 7: Being talked about.
- 1:36:49Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:36:49Speaker 7: Very, very on brand for you.
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:36:50Speaker 7: Shout out to Dr. Contessa to my co-host who's there
- 1:36:52Speaker 7: with me.
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: Dr.
- 1:36:54Speaker 4: Contessa Bryant.
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:36:56Speaker 7: Now, why was there hair on here on my mic? OK,
- 1:36:59Speaker 7: now let's move on to something else that it hasn't
- 1:37:03Speaker 7: even been officially announced, but there are reports. It's rumored
- 1:37:06Speaker 7: fans think it's happening that Drake and SZA are being
- 1:37:09Speaker 7: considered to headline Coachella. Now, the way that this rumor
- 1:37:15Speaker 7: is set up is that BTS was originally in conversation.
- 1:37:18Speaker 7: That negotiation fell through. So now Drake, SZA, and the
- 1:37:21Speaker 7: rock group Radiohead are in the lead for this conversation
- 1:37:25Speaker 7: and being considered. I mean, that's going to be a
- 1:37:28Speaker 7: big turnout.
- 1:37:29Speaker 4: That'll be cool.
- 1:37:29Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know. I feel like people haven't been
- 1:37:31Speaker 7: really no shade to Coachella, but I don't know if
- 1:37:32Speaker 7: people have been checking for Coachella as much as they
- 1:37:34Speaker 7: used to.
- 1:37:35Speaker 4: Really?
- 1:37:36Speaker 7: I think it's there and people go. It's a big stage, but...
- 1:37:40Speaker 7: every time I bring it up it used to be
- 1:37:41Speaker 7: a lot more hype around it you guys would be
- 1:37:43Speaker 7: like oh I didn't even know it was happening I
- 1:37:44Speaker 7: don't think people could afford it maybe that's it maybe
- 1:37:46Speaker 7: that's it cause I feel like it used to you
- 1:37:48Speaker 7: used to know when Coachella was happening like even if
- 1:37:50Speaker 7: you weren't there it would kind of take over your
- 1:37:52Speaker 7: timeline a bit but yeah.
- 1:37:53Speaker 9: But that's a big ticket though SZA Drake and Radiohead
- 1:37:57Speaker 9: yeah it's not gonna.
- 1:37:57Speaker 7: Be all of them they would figure out who would
- 1:38:00Speaker 7: be where different days right yes different days but i
- 1:38:04Speaker 7: feel like uh that last day is normally like that
- 1:38:07Speaker 7: big the big headlining act so yeah but again nothing
- 1:38:10Speaker 7: confirmed now another big stage where nothing has been confirmed.
- 1:38:14Speaker 4: I see that little picture the super bowl yep Yes.
- 1:38:17Speaker 7: Can I get the photo? So there is this photo
- 1:38:19Speaker 7: that is circulating. I do want to say that, you know,
- 1:38:22Speaker 7: a community note on X is saying that this is
- 1:38:24Speaker 7: a fabricated photo. But apparently fans are circulating a silhouette
- 1:38:28Speaker 7: that they believe was posted and then taken down by
- 1:38:31Speaker 7: Apple Music. Again, nothing official that I know of, but
- 1:38:35Speaker 7: this silhouette is giving who?
- 1:38:38Speaker 4: Miley Cyrus.
- 1:38:38Speaker 7: Miley Cyrus.
- 1:38:39Speaker 4: Because we can't stop. That's about to be lit.
- 1:38:43Speaker 7: Well, if it is true. I mean, if it is true.
- 1:38:45Speaker 4: We talked about that weeks ago, though. It's probably getting
- 1:38:47Speaker 4: Miley Cyrus. But why would.
- 1:38:49Speaker 7: They post it and take it down? I don't believe
- 1:38:51Speaker 7: that they did. I think the fans made it up
- 1:38:53Speaker 7: because they just wanted it to happen. But, I mean,
- 1:38:55Speaker 7: people are on their edge of the seat waiting to
- 1:38:58Speaker 7: know what's going to happen because normally the Super Bowl
- 1:38:59Speaker 7: is announced around September.
- 1:39:01Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:39:01Speaker 7: And it hasn't happened yet. So we don't know what's
- 1:39:03Speaker 7: going on.
- 1:39:04Speaker 4: In September, early October.
- 1:39:05Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:39:05Speaker 4: We're out on three Miley records. It's never before that.
- 1:39:07Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:39:08Speaker 4: It came in.
- 1:39:09Speaker 1: Like a wrecking ball. Party in the USA.
- 1:39:11Speaker 7: Party in the USA.
- 1:39:12Speaker 4: Can't stop.
- 1:39:12Speaker 7: Can't stop. What was the rap song she did with
- 1:39:15Speaker 7: Mike Will?
- 1:39:15Speaker 4: A bunch of them.
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: Oh, damn. I forgot about that one. But yeah, like Miley.
- 1:39:19Speaker 11: Listen, we grew up on Miley.
- 1:39:20Speaker 4: We grew up on Miley.
- 1:39:21Speaker 7: Before she was Miley, she was Hannah Montana.
- 1:39:23Speaker 2: The crazy thing is if Miley can come out this year,
- 1:39:25Speaker 2: she'll probably do a Dolly Parton tribute.
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: That'll be dope.
- 1:39:28Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 1:39:28Speaker 4: A little nine to five at the Super Bowl.
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
- 1:39:30Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:39:31Speaker 7: That'll be fire. I mean, it's going to have all
- 1:39:34Speaker 7: eyes on her. You don't like Miley.
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: For the Super Bowl? No, I didn't say that.
- 1:39:37Speaker 4: I only know one Miley. I play Cardi in the USA.
- 1:39:40Speaker 4: I don't have a Miley in my... Serato? I mean,
- 1:39:43Speaker 4: there's only like Miley, Justin. Yes. BTS.
- 1:39:47Speaker 1: Bieber. Jay-Z.
- 1:39:48Speaker 4: I just said Justin.
- 1:39:50Speaker 1: Oh. God damn.
- 1:39:51Speaker 4: Justin Timberlake. Justin Timberlake.
- 1:39:53Speaker 1: No, man.
- 1:39:53Speaker 4: Justin Timberlake. Justin, BTS.
- 1:39:56Speaker 7: That's what I was thinking about, Bieber.
- 1:39:59Speaker 2: Or they can go with a triple OG and let
- 1:40:01Speaker 2: Stevie Wonder headline the Super Bowl. It is the 50-year
- 1:40:03Speaker 2: anniversary of songs in the key of life.
- 1:40:04Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 1:40:05Speaker 4: And he's going on tour.
- 1:40:05Speaker 2: 50th anniversary of Songs in the Key of Life. Stevie
- 1:40:07Speaker 2: Wonder doing the Super Bowl will be fired, too.
- 1:40:09Speaker 7: People think it's Jay-Z, though. People think it's Jay-Z or Miley.
- 1:40:12Speaker 7: Justin Bieber is in there, too. But Jay-Z, Miley, I
- 1:40:14Speaker 7: feel like, are like, huh?
- 1:40:15Speaker 9: I said Stevie Wonder will bring other people out, too, right?
- 1:40:18Speaker 9: I mean, I know he can go by himself, but
- 1:40:19Speaker 9: I'm just saying, like, cute. Normally, they do, though.
- 1:40:21Speaker 4: Stevie's on tour.
- 1:40:22Speaker 5: Right now, too.
- 1:40:23Speaker 4: Yeah, Stevie got records.
- 1:40:24Speaker 2: And it's the 50th anniversary of Songs in the Key
- 1:40:26Speaker 2: of Life.
- 1:40:27Speaker 4: Stevie Wonder, I don't even want to.
- 1:40:29Speaker 2: Say he's the last of a dying breed. Because most
- 1:40:32Speaker 2: of that breed dead already.
- 1:40:35Speaker 4: He around. Stevie is a triple OG icon.
- 1:40:39Speaker 7: Or they're trying to perform right now and having to
- 1:40:42Speaker 7: kind of take breaks. I don't know if they could
- 1:40:43Speaker 7: do a Super Bowl.
- 1:40:44Speaker 2: And it's the 50-year anniversary of songs in the key
- 1:40:46Speaker 2: of life. It just depends if you want to go
- 1:40:47Speaker 2: triple OG.
- 1:40:48Speaker 4: And Stevie's on tour.
- 1:40:49Speaker 7: This year, they got a lot of potentials. This don't
- 1:40:51Speaker 7: look like Stevie's silhouette, yo. This ain't Stevie.
- 1:40:54Speaker 4: No, that's definitely not Stevie. We don't know if that's
- 1:40:56Speaker 4: real either. We don't.
- 1:40:56Speaker 7: I don't believe that it is. Stevie would be great.
- 1:40:59Speaker 4: I would love to see Stevie.
- 1:41:00Speaker 2: 50-year anniversary of songs in the key of life with
- 1:41:02Speaker 2: the Super Bowl would hit different.
- 1:41:04Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:41:04Speaker 7: Normally, you can kind of point to who you think
- 1:41:06Speaker 7: it will be by the year that the artist has had,
- 1:41:08Speaker 7: like with Bad Bunny or with Kendrick Lamar or Beyonce.
- 1:41:12Speaker 7: But this year, there's good contenders out there.
- 1:41:15Speaker 4: Not always, though.
- 1:41:16Speaker 7: With Kendrick, you could feel it.
- 1:41:19Speaker 2: You could feel it with Kendrick, but Rihanna, when Rihanna
- 1:41:21Speaker 2: did it, it was just the fact that it was Rihanna.
- 1:41:23Speaker 4: She definitely wasn't putting out no music that year. That's
- 1:41:25Speaker 4: just classic. It don't have to be dependent on what
- 1:41:28Speaker 4: type of year the person had.
- 1:41:33Speaker 7: Or a location.
- 1:41:33Speaker 4: Vegas was Usher.
- 1:41:35Speaker 7: That was a big thing, too. Remember when people were like,
- 1:41:36Speaker 7: certain locations should have Usher as well. But Usher had
- 1:41:39Speaker 7: the residency.
- 1:41:40Speaker 4: I would love to see how they would do Stevie, though. Like,
- 1:41:41Speaker 4: how they would, like, stand up.
- 1:41:42Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
- 1:41:43Speaker 4: They would have to move him around and.
- 1:41:45Speaker 2: Do different sets.
- 1:41:45Speaker 7: He would have a huge piano set up.
- 1:41:47Speaker 3: But they would have to move him around.
- 1:41:49Speaker 4: You treat him like Rihanna when she's pregnant. Put him
- 1:41:51Speaker 4: in the middle of the stage at that piano, let
- 1:41:53Speaker 4: him play, and.
- 1:41:53Speaker 3: Have all the production around him.
- 1:41:55Speaker 7: No, but she was still moving. She was walking from
- 1:41:57Speaker 7: one stage to the next.
- 1:41:58Speaker 4: We don't want Stevie just walking around wandering around the
- 1:42:00Speaker 4: stage like that. You don't want to start that now.
- 1:42:03Speaker 4: You don't want to honor him. You don't want to
- 1:42:05Speaker 4: honor him. You don't need all that. No, you don't
- 1:42:07Speaker 4: need that. We put him in a chair and push
- 1:42:09Speaker 4: him around.
- 1:42:09Speaker 7: I thought you was going to say put him in
- 1:42:11Speaker 7: a tent, Envy. I thought I heard tent.
- 1:42:12Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:42:13Speaker 4: No, no, you move the piano to the right.
- 1:42:15Speaker 7: How dare you? All right, y'all. That was the latest

- 1:43:05Speaker 2: Your Source, launches on YouTube tomorrow at 9 p.m., if
- 1:43:08Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken, on the Native Land Podcast YouTube page.
- 1:43:11Speaker 2: And I want to say, man, I'm glad that we
- 1:43:13Speaker 2: had an opportunity to sit down with Chris Rock.
- 1:43:16Speaker 4: And, you know, have a conversation.
- 1:43:18Speaker 2: Because I just don't understand the internet's obsession with taking
- 1:43:23Speaker 2: people out of context.
- 1:43:24Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 1:43:25Speaker 4: It's the weirdest thing.
- 1:43:26Speaker 2: And they'll take two and three moments that they don't
- 1:43:30Speaker 2: like and try to come to a whole conclusion about
- 1:43:33Speaker 2: a man's whole existence. And it'd be confusing sometimes when
- 1:43:36Speaker 2: you've grown up on certain people.
- 1:43:38Speaker 4: Because you're like, how do you get that from that?
- 1:43:40Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:43:40Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 1:43:42Speaker 1: It's weird. Yeah.
- 1:43:43Speaker 7: But I love that. That was my first time meeting him,
- 1:43:45Speaker 7: and I will say I love him.
- 1:43:47Speaker 4: Now, Chris is dope.
- 1:43:47Speaker 7: So lit, yo.
- 1:43:48Speaker 5: That's funny.
- 1:43:48Speaker 6: The first time I met Chris, we was beefing, but
- 1:43:50Speaker 6: that was a long time ago. Now, none of our
- 1:43:52Speaker 6: daughters play basketball. We was beefing over basketball, but.
- 1:43:54Speaker 7: None of our daughters play basketball. Always beefing with somebody's
- 1:43:56Speaker 7: dog skin, yo.
- 1:43:57Speaker 4: All the time. All the time.
- 1:43:59Speaker 1: Envy.
- 1:44:01Speaker 4: That is true.
- 1:44:01Speaker 7: You want y'all to pay attention. Yeah, you never beef
- 1:44:04Speaker 7: with nobody's dog skin.
- 1:44:04Speaker 1: I agree.
- 1:44:05Speaker 4: When you peel back the layers, you kind of see that.
- 1:44:07Speaker 4: Shut up, man.
- 1:44:08Speaker 6: Now, I'm heading out to China today, so I'm going
- 1:44:11Speaker 6: to try to broadcast from there probably Thursday.
- 1:44:14Speaker 4: So the NBA has.
- 1:44:16Speaker 6: China's one of the biggest markets for the NBA, so
- 1:44:18Speaker 6: they have games there.

- 1:46:07Speaker 2: Listen, for the sake of your mental health, appreciate the
- 1:46:10Speaker 2: difference between being fully chosen and being kept around, okay?
- 1:46:13Speaker 2: Being genuinely valued feels different from being kept around out
- 1:46:17Speaker 2: of convenience. Pay attention to consistency, effort, and how someone
- 1:46:20Speaker 2: makes space for you rather than settling for occasional attention
- 1:46:23Speaker 2: that leaves you questioning your place.
- 1:46:25Speaker 4: Have a great day.
- 1:46:26Speaker 3: Breakfast Club, bitches!
- 1:46:28Speaker 4: You all finished or
