• 0:25
  Speaker 2: just be mees Charlamagne to God. Jess told me I
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: should do this because Monique is from Baltimore.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, and that's her aunt, right, absolutely, and I'm a
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: sweet baby.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Yes. And if we don't have anything to do with this,
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Jess Laris has nothing to do with this because she
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: just got here Monday, okay, together us three at the
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Breakfast club. But I am the breakfast Nub, all right.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: That's what Monique called us on a club Sha shay yesterday.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: Well called me on club sha shit yesterday when she
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: was reminiscent over the time she received donkey today. Let's
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: listen to her on club.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: We were able to do the special and we appreciated them,
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: saying listen, how can we work this out? Now? You
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: know what happens with that.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: People were having.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Callings when I said this is not right. I was
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: donky other day. Remember that I was donkey of the day.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: The Breakfast Nubs called me the donkey of the day.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: That's what they said. And they had a whole calling
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: about how I was Donkey of the Day, but you
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: didn't do the same thing when you found out was
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: settled now all of a sudden, don't nobody know what
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: the settlement is.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: It was really really quick. We just want to throw
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: it away.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: So with that Netflix special, it was just it was
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: just like, no, guys, I gotta stand up now.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: If you remember, Monique back in the day, like twenty eighteen,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: called for a boycotted Netflix, saying they low balled her.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Monique said in an Instagram video that Netflix offered her
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: a half a million dollars for a comedy special, and
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: she pointed out Amy Schumer was off with eleven million,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Dave Sheapell and Chris Rock twenty million. I gave her
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Donkey of the Day for that because it was in
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: my opinion that Monique, you know, wasn't on the level
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: of Dave, Amy and Chris. And she came on Breakfast
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Club and said this.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: And what happens is when you're basing off of what
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: you're assuming and then you give me a title of
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Donkey the Day. Is your mother still alive, yes, ma'am?
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: And You're from what city in South Carolina? Monst Corner,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: South Carolina, Monkst Corner. And if I was to call
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: your mother or your grandmother, could they tell me stories
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: of inequality that they had to deal with?
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Absolutely?
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: So, would your mother be a donkey?
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: No?
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: Would your grandmother be a donkey?
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: No?
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: I need you to explain how you gave me the title,
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: because you're not explaining it. You're going off of what
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: I assume. But because you're on that microphone, and when
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: we open up these microphones, we know just how powerful
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: our voices can be, don't we, Angelou, Yes, we do,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: and we know that what we say can become law,
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: correct Lenard, Absolutely, so when we do that, we must
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: then explain it to our community because we know how
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: poisonous it can be when we put things out, but
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: we can't back it up.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: We just say it. You's right.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Netflix ultimately ended up taking back their offer, and then
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen, Monique suit Netflix for failing to negotiate
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: in good faith. The federal judging the case sided with Monique,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: and in twenty twenty two, the lawsuit was settled out
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: of court, dropping the clues bombs for Monique Okay, here's
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: the thing. I've said this before, and I've said it
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: a few times.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: On this radio.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: When it comes to that point, Monique was right. I
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: should have minded my black owned business, Okay, And she's
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: right when she speaks on the power of the microphone,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: because people from Netflix were definitely reaching out to me
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: behind the scenes and they tried to explain why Monique
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: didn't get the money that Amy, Dave and Chris got.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Doesn't matter what the conversation consisted of. Just know, as
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I just said, Monique sued them and they settled. So
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: they're clearly with some validity to the injustice that she
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: spoke of. Monique, you were right. Okay. I've said that
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: before in this radio and I'll say it again so
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: you hear me. I had no business speaking on your business. Okay.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: There's absolutely a paid discrepancy for black women. Black women
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: are typically paid only sixty seven cents for every dollar
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: paid to white men, and the wage gap actually widens
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: the sixty five cents on the dollar for black women
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: who hold doctor degrees compared to white men with the
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: same education. Okay, not to mention all the proof is
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: in the putting. When you see a company as big
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: as Netflix. With all the money Netflix has, they could
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: have dragged this out. Okay, they settled with Monique, Okay,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: and still put out a Monique comedy specially all right,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: we've heard Taraji come out and complain about the pay
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: discrepancy in Hollywood. Look, we can have a million conversations
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: as to why that is, what that is. The moral
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: of the story is there's too many black women out
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: here with the same story. Okay, Monique, God bless you, sister.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: And if you have never heard me say this before,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: or if I've never said it, because I was born
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: in nineteen hundred and seventy eight and my memory is
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: not what it used to be. I apologize for being wrong. Okay,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: A man shut.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Up to go in?
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Could y'all stop?
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: It's crazy.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: I apologize Monique for giving you donkey of today because,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: once again, regardless of how I felt about the situation
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: when you in Netflix, I had no business in your
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: business and broadcasting your business, And it was Envy's idea
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: to open the phone lines for people to comment on
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: your business wasn't mine. Okay, But I truly you're going
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: to know where you gonna apologize.
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: I apologize Monique. Okay, and I think you shul apologize
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: to a husband as well.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: What you got to do with this?
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Both of them.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: Both of them was doing this and both of them
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: felt disrespected. That's her manager. He was outside. You should apologize.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: He's always around, that's the thing. He's always him.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: Even though he called. He apologized that husband too well.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: Apologize to her husband. I apologize their husband Sidney Sidney right,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: that's his name. Yes, I truly, truly, truly pray this
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: apology is received by you, Monique, and I hope you
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: heal because I feel like when I hear somebody talking
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: about something for a long period of time, that means
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: they have been holding on to it and it's bothering
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: them in some way. And as a therapist once told me,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: if you don't want your piece to serve, don't disturb
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: the piece of others. I clearly disturbed your piece. I
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: heard Donkey of to Day mentioned in the intro to
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: your Netflix special. I heard you talk about Donkey to
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Day on Club shay Sha. Monique, I apologize. I want peace.
