- 1:01Speaker 5: it felt like it was sleep. It felt like my
- 1:03Speaker 5: foot was sleep.
- 1:03Speaker 2: But when I realized, like, I hit the floor when
- 1:05Speaker 2: I got up.

- 1:10Speaker 2: Wasn't enough blood circulation. I guess. I don't know.
- 1:13Speaker 5: I crawled to the bathroom. I'm sweating like I'm hot.
- 1:17Speaker 2: I have a headache.
- 1:17Speaker 5: I got to turn the light off because I keep
- 1:19Speaker 5: my bathroom light on. Turn the light off because the
- 1:21Speaker 5: light is like my eyes real sensitive to the light.
- 1:24Speaker 5: Then I had a headache. It felt like a migraine.
- 1:26Speaker 5: And I'm just on the toilet like, yo, it was crazy.
- 1:29Speaker 5: The diarrhea ended up coming, but all the stuff that
- 1:32Speaker 5: built up to it was just like, wow.
- 1:34Speaker 2: Did you have blurred vision? I don't know.
- 1:36Speaker 5: I had to turn the light off real quick, though.
- 1:38Speaker 5: But headache, fever.
- 1:39Speaker 2: Any balance loss? To the ER. I don't know.
- 1:42Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:42Speaker 5: Did your face drip a little bit?
- 1:43Speaker 2: I mean, because I'm up here by myself.
- 1:45Speaker 9: What?
- 1:46Speaker 2: Did your face drip a little bit? No, Claude. I
- 1:48Speaker 2: did not have no stroke. I did not have no stroke.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Don't do that. But no, I just didn't. I was like, yo,
- 1:53Speaker 2: what is happening? I was on the toilet for like
- 1:54Speaker 2: two hours. Didn't get to go back to sleep until 2.30.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Did you smoke or did you take mushrooms? No, I didn't. No,

- 2:02Speaker 2: So no, yo.
- 2:03Speaker 6: No.
- 2:03Speaker 2: It could have been worse. You could have had a
- 2:04Speaker 2: dream that you was pooping. And woke up in the
- 2:08Speaker 2: bed and did it. Yeah, I know, yo. But I
- 2:10Speaker 2: was scared as hell. Definitely will after work. And how
- 2:13Speaker 2: old are you that you sleep with the bathroom light on?
- 2:15Speaker 1: I know.
- 2:16Speaker 2: I watch too many scary movies. And I'm up here
- 2:18Speaker 2: by myself, you know what I mean?
- 2:19Speaker 10: So I'm like, damn.
- 2:20Speaker 2: What is the bathroom light going to do for you?
- 2:22Speaker 2: I don't know. I want you to get a nightlight. No, no, no.
- 2:25Speaker 2: She's too old for that. Wow. You should go to
- 2:30Speaker 2: the doctor.

- 2:34Speaker 5: but I'm good. Ain't nothing else to come out, so
- 2:36Speaker 5: I'm straight.
- 2:37Speaker 3: She ain't going to the doctor. This is not like
- 2:39Speaker 3: you didn't have enough circulation on your leg. You might
- 2:40Speaker 3: have been sleeping on your leg and didn't know it.
- 2:43Speaker 2: Oh, all right. Laying up under your leg. Had your
- 2:44Speaker 2: one leg laying up under you? Yeah, I guess. I
- 2:47Speaker 2: don't know, yo, but that's the first time this ever happened. Like, yeah, definitely.

- 4:29Speaker 3: Yes, Wild Card Series. I could care less about baseball.
- 4:31Speaker 3: I'm locked in for WNBA playoffs.
- 4:33Speaker 2: And then Monday night, football!
- 4:36Speaker 4: The Chicago Bears beat the Philadelphia Eagles 27-7 that means
- 4:40Speaker 4: my Giants are tied for number one in division now
- 4:44Speaker 4: I know salute to Gilly and Mojo they did a
- 4:47Speaker 4: bet and I think the loser would have to paint
- 4:49Speaker 4: their fingernails so Gilly's gonna have to paint his fingernails
- 4:52Speaker 4: so we'll see what happens with that what's up Mimi
- 4:54Speaker 4: It's a nice gay bed.
- 4:55Speaker 2: Good morning. What?
- 4:56Speaker 13: Right.
- 4:57Speaker 2: What the hell? Why would both of them agree? Right,
- 5:00Speaker 2: what the hell? Don't know.
- 5:03Speaker 10: Good morning, guys. How y'all doing this morning?
- 5:05Speaker 5: Hey, Mimi.
- 5:06Speaker 2: Peace, Mimi Brown.
- 5:07Speaker 6: Good morning.
- 5:08Speaker 10: Good morning.
- 5:09Speaker 14: So Front Page News is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan,
- 5:11Speaker 14: America's largest injury law firm. So we start this hour
- 5:15Speaker 14: with a new fight over how your tax dollars are
- 5:18Speaker 14: being spent. So the federal government has spent... about $ 1. 7
- 5:22Speaker 14: million to run three TV ads featuring President Trump, and
- 5:26Speaker 14: one of them is almost identical to an ad from
- 5:29Speaker 14: Trump's 2024 presidential campaign. Now, the only difference is the
- 5:33Speaker 14: old version says it was paid for by the Trump administration.
- 5:37Speaker 10: The new one.
- 5:38Speaker 14: Says it was paid for by the U.S. government, meaning
- 5:41Speaker 14: taxpayers are picking up the bill. Let's listen to part
- 5:44Speaker 14: of that ad.
- 5:45Speaker 15: We will rout the fake news media and we will
- 5:48Speaker 15: liberate America from these villains once.
- 5:52Speaker 2: And for all.
- 5:56Speaker 14: Now, critics say the ads violate federal propaganda law. The
- 6:00Speaker 14: White House says these are not campaign ads. He calls
- 6:03Speaker 14: them public service announcements and points out that Trump is
- 6:07Speaker 14: not on the ballot and the ads do not tell
- 6:09Speaker 14: people who to vote for. But the ads are getting
- 6:12Speaker 14: pushback from both Democrats and Republicans. Here's Senator John Kennedy.
- 6:17Speaker 15: I don't think any public official, including President Trump or
- 6:22Speaker 15: Kristi Noem or John Kennedy, should spend public money on
- 6:27Speaker 15: private ads for themselves. Now, the White House sees it differently,
- 6:34Speaker 15: but I think there ought to be a rule that
- 6:36Speaker 15: you can't, well, there probably is a rule, you can't
- 6:38Speaker 15: spend public money to promote yourself.
- 6:42Speaker 3: Well, add that to the list of things that, you know,
- 6:44Speaker 3: Donald Trump is wasting our tax dollars on.
- 6:45Speaker 2: That is crazy. Whether it's White House.
- 6:47Speaker 3: Renovations or, you know, unapproved structures or, you know, the
- 6:52Speaker 3: whole administration uses our taxpayer dollars for travel and transport. So,
- 6:55Speaker 3: I mean, it's a million different things that he's wasted
- 6:57Speaker 3: our taxpayer dollars on.
- 6:57Speaker 4: That sounds crazy with the way the economy is now
- 7:00Speaker 4: with the price of food, the price of fuel. You're
- 7:03Speaker 4: just using it as a promo for your mixtape. That
- 7:05Speaker 4: just sounds crazy. Sounds just as crazy as the ballroom,
- 7:09Speaker 4: you know.
- 7:10Speaker 10: For sure.
- 7:11Speaker 14: Now, the White House has not publicly identified which agency
- 7:14Speaker 14: or government account is paying for these ads. Of course,
- 7:17Speaker 14: people are calling for more accountability and asking, you know,
- 7:22Speaker 14: where this money is exactly coming from. And switching gears
- 7:25Speaker 14: here a little bit this morning, if you or your
- 7:27Speaker 14: child is planning to go to college, pay attention to
- 7:30Speaker 14: what they plan to study, because some of the degrees
- 7:33Speaker 14: are about to come a lot harder to afford, especially
- 7:36Speaker 14: if you depend on federal student loans or financial aid.
- 7:40Speaker 14: So the Trump administration is changing which degrees and career
- 7:44Speaker 14: programs the government.
- 7:45Speaker 10: Will help pay for.
- 7:46Speaker 14: So they include people who are going to school to
- 7:49Speaker 14: become social workers, mental health counselors, people majoring in art, film, music,
- 7:55Speaker 14: even people training to become cosmetologists, barbers, nail techs, or
- 7:59Speaker 14: massage therapists. So the idea is if graduates aren't making
- 8:02Speaker 14: enough money in those careers to pay back their student loans,
- 8:06Speaker 14: the government is going to stop providing money to those
- 8:09Speaker 14: students in those programs. Now, that doesn't mean the school
- 8:12Speaker 14: will stop offering those degrees, but it just means that
- 8:15Speaker 14: the federal government will no longer give student loans to
- 8:17Speaker 14: help you pay. or any of those degrees. Now, this
- 8:20Speaker 14: new rule, it starts next year.
- 8:22Speaker 3: Well, there's not so many careers that the kids can
- 8:24Speaker 3: get that's going to help them pay back their student loans.
- 8:26Speaker 3: That's going to make enough money to help them pay
- 8:28Speaker 3: back their student loans. Because college is super duper expensive.
- 8:32Speaker 4: If you go to, what, a private school, you're looking at, what,
- 8:34Speaker 4: $ 70, 000 to $ 90, 000 a year.
- 8:36Speaker 2: And if it's a public school, it's like $ 40, 000 to $ 50, 000.
- 8:38Speaker 2: That's a lot of money. After four years, that's too much.
- 8:42Speaker 3: So what do they want you to do, Mimi? Do
- 8:43Speaker 3: they have a list of jobs, a list of majors
- 8:46Speaker 3: that you should major in?
- 8:48Speaker 10: You would think they would say, get with this and
- 8:50Speaker 10: not get with that, right?
- 8:51Speaker 1: No.
- 8:51Speaker 10: They just tell you, if you choose any of those.
- 8:54Speaker 14: Type of majors, we're not going to help you pay
- 8:56Speaker 14: for it because we don't think when you get out
- 8:57Speaker 14: of school that you're going to make enough money to
- 8:59Speaker 14: be able to pay us our money back.
- 9:00Speaker 10: So, a boy team, basically.
- 9:01Speaker 2: Dang.
- 9:02Speaker 10: You know, what it says.
- 9:03Speaker 3: Trump administration might as well do that song that Z-Wade
- 9:05Speaker 3: did back in the day, the Stop Being Poor song.
- 9:07Speaker 3: Just stop being poor. Stop being poor. I remember that song.
- 9:11Speaker 6: You remember that?
- 9:12Speaker 3: Yes.
- 9:12Speaker 2: It was a parody song she did on her show
- 9:14Speaker 2: called Stop Being Poor.
- 9:16Speaker 3: That should be the Trump administration's slogan.
- 9:20Speaker 14: Yes, because they're punishing you, right? And really, really quickly,
- 9:24Speaker 14: if you live in Georgia, you're about to save some
- 9:26Speaker 14: money at the gas pump. So starting today, Georgia is
- 9:29Speaker 14: getting rid of its state's gas tax for 30 days
- 9:32Speaker 14: as fuel prices continue to climb because of the war
- 9:34Speaker 14: with Iran.
- 9:34Speaker 10: So Georgia, they have about $ 0.
- 9:37Speaker 14: 33 in state tax to every gallon of gas and
- 9:41Speaker 14: $ 0. 37 for every diesel. So until next month, you won't
- 9:45Speaker 14: have to pay that extra tax. So if you have
- 9:47Speaker 14: like a 15-gallon tank, That's going to save you about $ 5.
- 9:51Speaker 14: The average price in Georgia is about $ 4.
- 9:53Speaker 5: 19.
- 9:53Speaker 10: You guys, a year ago, it was $ 2.
- 9:56Speaker 2: 88.
- 9:56Speaker 14: That's how high it's jumped in a year.
- 9:58Speaker 2: Damn.
- 10:02Speaker 14: Also temporarily relaxing weight limits for commercial trucks to help
- 10:05Speaker 14: get some goods to where they need to be. We
- 10:07Speaker 14: know that diesel is out of control as well. And
- 10:10Speaker 14: so this gas tax break, it runs through October 29th.
- 10:14Speaker 10: So if you're in Georgia... You're going to get a
- 10:16Speaker 10: little relief at the pump this morning for one month.
- 10:19Speaker 2: That's good news there. All right. Well, thank you, Mimi. Absolutely.

- 15:06Speaker 2: Hey, John from Florida. Get it off your chest, brother.
- 15:10Speaker 6: I got to go to court here in about four hours.
- 15:13Speaker 6: And I was like, it feels like the fight is fixed.
- 15:16Speaker 6: You know, against me because I feel like my, they
- 15:20Speaker 6: acting funny in the courtroom.
- 15:22Speaker 2: What'd you go on the court for?
- 15:23Speaker 6: I got a self-defense case, man. And it's out here
- 15:26Speaker 6: in Texas.
- 15:27Speaker 2: Tell us the story. Tell us the story. What happened? I, so.
- 15:32Speaker 6: You know, protecting myself and my, I got into it
- 15:36Speaker 6: with the tow truck driver, man. And he backed me
- 15:39Speaker 6: in and wouldn't let me leave. And then he hit
- 15:41Speaker 6: me with his truck. And it, you know, an altercation
- 15:44Speaker 6: ensued because, like, In Texas, they say you have the
- 15:48Speaker 6: right to leave if you're not hooked up. So I
- 15:50Speaker 6: tried to leave, and he wouldn't let me. He boxed
- 15:52Speaker 6: me in.
- 15:53Speaker 2: Was he trying to repo the car or something?
- 15:56Speaker 12: No, no, no.
- 15:57Speaker 6: He was just trying to tow me for parking because
- 16:00Speaker 6: my truck was too big to be in that parking lot,
- 16:03Speaker 6: and I was trying to move it. But the thing
- 16:06Speaker 6: was is, you know, he kept trying. We called the police.
- 16:11Speaker 6: I was waiting on him to get there, but he wouldn't.
- 16:13Speaker 6: He kept trying to connect to me.
- 16:14Speaker 2: We get.
- 16:15Speaker 6: I kept trying to stop him. He hit me with
- 16:17Speaker 6: the vehicle, and I kept asking him, wait for the police.
- 16:19Speaker 6: But anyway, now that I'm going to the case for
- 16:23Speaker 6: it and stuff like that, they done started acting real funny.
- 16:27Speaker 6: They trying to come after me for perjury now, saying
- 16:32Speaker 6: that I wasn't honest about my income. Just a bunch
- 16:36Speaker 6: of little silly antics that I'm like. And then they
- 16:40Speaker 6: just told me that they wanted to extend the case yesterday,
- 16:45Speaker 6: they called me because they said the police report didn't
- 16:47Speaker 6: come in. And I'm like, it's been seven.
- 16:49Speaker 2: And a half months.
- 16:50Speaker 6: So, I just know that something's going on behind the scenes.
- 16:54Speaker 6: The owner of the company is a big deal in
- 16:57Speaker 6: the city. I feel like he got a lot of influence.
- 17:00Speaker 6: And I'm just kind of nervous.
- 17:02Speaker 2: What did they charge you with, brother?
- 17:03Speaker 6: They charged me with assault.
- 17:05Speaker 2: Okay, so you put hands on him, allegedly. You said
- 17:08Speaker 2: the guy is a big deal in the city? The
- 17:11Speaker 2: owner of the company.
- 17:11Speaker 6: The guy is a big Yeah, he's a big deal
- 17:13Speaker 6: in the city, man.
- 17:14Speaker 2: Do you have a lawyer?
- 17:15Speaker 6: I have a, I got a public defender.
- 17:19Speaker 2: You can belt that. Yeah, you can belt that.
- 17:21Speaker 4: Yeah, if he's that big of a deal and he
- 17:23Speaker 4: has that much influence, he's going to have a high-powered
- 17:25Speaker 4: attorney and you might need to, you might think about
- 17:28Speaker 4: getting one if you could afford one.
- 17:29Speaker 2: It might be too late. You got to go to
- 17:30Speaker 2: court today.
- 17:32Speaker 6: I gotta go in like three, four hours. Honestly, man,
- 17:35Speaker 6: I've really been trying to get some legal advice. We
- 17:38Speaker 6: can pay for it, but every time I call an attorney,
- 17:41Speaker 6: they don't want to talk. They say either... you can't
- 17:44Speaker 6: you've been represented or they're like you know i don't
- 17:46Speaker 6: feel comfortable critiquing another attorney but i'm like i got
- 17:49Speaker 6: a perfect i.
- 17:50Speaker 3: Got three words for you top dog long okay yeah
- 17:53Speaker 3: listen here's the thing um how much time are you facing.
- 17:58Speaker 6: Okay i think the assault thing carries up to like
- 18:01Speaker 6: a year.
- 18:02Speaker 3: But you're not getting a year you probably have to
- 18:04Speaker 3: pay a fine Is this your first offense?

- 20:15Speaker 2: LL Cool Bay. Talk to me. LL Cool Bay. Good morning, guys.
- 20:20Speaker 2: All righty.
- 20:20Speaker 17: So let's get into a conversation that Chris Rock is
- 20:23Speaker 17: having and Angela Bassett is having about black women in Hollywood.
- 20:27Speaker 6: Right.
- 20:28Speaker 17: And kind of what that is like. Now, Chris Rock
- 20:30Speaker 17: is talking about black women in Hollywood and how.
- 20:33Speaker 19: Hard it is for black women. Let's take a listen.
- 20:40Speaker 21: Wow.
- 21:11Speaker 6: Hmm.
- 21:12Speaker 3: Hmm.
- 21:34Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:35Speaker 17: Now, that was a conversation he had during the Toronto
- 21:37Speaker 17: Film Festival. And he's there promoting his comedy, comedy drama
- 21:43Speaker 17: film that he has called Misty Green, which is starring
- 21:45Speaker 17: a black woman. And it's about a woman who is
- 21:47Speaker 17: trying to she's an Emmy winning actress, but she went
- 21:50Speaker 17: through like some addiction problems and she's trying to make
- 21:51Speaker 17: a comeback in Hollywood. And he talks, he was very
- 21:54Speaker 17: honest about the fact that she wasn't even supposed to
- 21:56Speaker 17: be the center of the film. He wanted Donald Glover,
- 21:59Speaker 17: but ended up casting her.
- 22:01Speaker 2: And it's been amazing.
- 22:02Speaker 17: And she's talked about like, you know, having issues, getting
- 22:04Speaker 17: work and all the things. But Angela Bassett did a
- 22:06Speaker 17: sit down. This just came out.
- 22:08Speaker 2: She did a sit down. She's the highest paid black actress, right? Yeah,
- 22:11Speaker 2: I believe so.
- 22:12Speaker 19: I think she's the highest paid. What is the show
- 22:15Speaker 19: that took her? There was 9-1-1?
- 22:16Speaker 2: 9-1-1. Yes. She makes like. I thought it was like
- 22:19Speaker 2: a half a million dollars, but I could be wrong
- 22:20Speaker 2: about that.
- 22:20Speaker 19: So, Angela Bassett did All Access with Lindsay Davis.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Damn, I know that's right. I'm sorry.
- 22:24Speaker 6: No, you're fine.
- 22:25Speaker 17: Angela Bassett did All Access with Lindsay Davis, and she's
- 22:28Speaker 17: having a conversation about how it was hard for her
- 22:30Speaker 17: to get roles after What's Love got to do with it.
- 22:32Speaker 2: Let's take a listen.
- 22:33Speaker 5: You've said that after Tina Turner, you had a hard
- 22:36Speaker 5: time getting a role.
- 22:37Speaker 2: Why was that?
- 22:37Speaker 20: Well, it was about 18 months after the role came out. Remember,
- 22:41Speaker 20: it was during a period of time where roles were
- 22:43Speaker 20: few and far between for a woman of color, you know,
- 22:47Speaker 20: of a certain hue. There wasn't very much like, oh.
- 22:50Speaker 2: This is the character. It's open to anyone, the character.
- 22:54Speaker 20: We need white, 30, the breakdowns as they would come out.
- 22:57Speaker 20: And it was the leading role, a showy role.
- 23:01Speaker 2: So are you going to make a lateral move? Are
- 23:03Speaker 2: you going to go upward?
- 23:04Speaker 20: Or what's the trajectory after you've reached the ceiling?
- 23:09Speaker 10: Do you think that Hollywood has changed for Black women?
- 23:11Speaker 11: Yeah, definitely.
- 23:12Speaker 20: I think things have improved, you know, tremendously, especially, you know,
- 23:17Speaker 20: you have a phone in your hand. You can make
- 23:19Speaker 20: your own movie and content and it can be very successful.
- 23:23Speaker 2: I think Zendaya and Kerry Washington are the highest paid
- 23:26Speaker 2: black actresses. No, Angela Bassett. On TV, it's Angela Bassett.
- 23:29Speaker 2: There was a stat, though, that I saw circulating. Zendaya
- 23:32Speaker 2: gets a million episodes on HBO.
- 23:34Speaker 17: But is she, is it, what is it? Is it
- 23:36Speaker 17: across TV? Like, what is she highest paid within? Is
- 23:38Speaker 17: it within a certain sector?
- 23:39Speaker 4: I'm not sure and it says Kerry Washington gets paid
- 23:41Speaker 4: 1.1 per episode for Little Fires Everywhere so I'm not
- 23:44Speaker 4: sure I heard.
- 23:45Speaker 5: Little Fires was fire I ain't never watched it.
- 23:47Speaker 17: Though basically the point is there are black women out
- 23:50Speaker 17: here getting to the.
- 23:51Speaker 2: Money but Angela's the highest paid for broadcast television.
- 23:53Speaker 17: Okay because I know that they're a different sector because
- 23:55Speaker 17: I remember when Zendaya's stat went viral as well it
- 23:57Speaker 17: was like a couple years ago and I also remember
- 23:59Speaker 17: when 9-1-1 Got Angela Bassett there as well, too. But yeah,
- 24:02Speaker 17: so the conversation about black women in television, it kind of,
- 24:04Speaker 17: you know, skews. But to hear her say that, like,
- 24:06Speaker 17: she feels like things have changed a bit. I think
- 24:08Speaker 17: we know being able to, you know, get on the Internet.
- 24:10Speaker 17: But I think it's still a bit different. And I
- 24:12Speaker 17: think that's what Issa Rae was pointing at the other
- 24:14Speaker 17: day when she was talking about white men in Hollywood
- 24:16Speaker 17: and how things are a bit hard right now.
- 24:18Speaker 2: Those are very inside baseball conversations.
- 24:21Speaker 3: Like, I understand having those conversations because that's their life
- 24:24Speaker 3: and that's the life that they live. But the consumer
- 24:27Speaker 3: that watches them, they don't feel sorry for them in
- 24:30Speaker 3: no way, shape, or form. When you talk about these things,
- 24:32Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying? Like, some of these people
- 24:34Speaker 3: would never make that. They would never make that in
- 24:36Speaker 3: their life.
- 24:36Speaker 4: When they do such an amazing job and their counterparts
- 24:39Speaker 4: are getting way more than that, you got to salute that.
- 24:41Speaker 2: And you got to encourage that.
- 24:42Speaker 3: I agree, but you're not listening to what I'm saying.
- 24:43Speaker 3: It's an inside baseball conversation because... You're having that discourse
- 24:48Speaker 3: with the public and the public's looking like $ 450, 000 per episode.
- 24:50Speaker 2: I can understand that.
- 24:52Speaker 17: But what about the actress that's like just getting on
- 24:56Speaker 17: her campus, just getting her theater program, trying to get
- 24:58Speaker 17: to where she's at.
- 24:59Speaker 19: And it's like, yo, I'm graduating.
- 25:01Speaker 17: I can only go do these indie films and hopefully
- 25:04Speaker 17: these indie films make it like, you know, to become
- 25:06Speaker 17: like an odyssey or whatever. And that's happening right now.
- 25:09Speaker 17: But the way that the industry is set up right now,
- 25:10Speaker 17: I got to try to feed my family. And I
- 25:12Speaker 17: don't know.
- 25:13Speaker 3: You should hope for the longevity of a Kerry Washington
- 25:15Speaker 3: and the longevity of an Angela Bassett.
- 25:16Speaker 2: Yes. You know what I mean? And that's why it's
- 25:18Speaker 2: important that I think when our actresses.
- 25:21Speaker 17: Across the board, our creators, black creators in general, are
- 25:24Speaker 17: having this longevity.
- 25:25Speaker 19: We actually appreciate them the right way.
- 25:27Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 25:27Speaker 19: Because not everybody can get to that point.
- 25:28Speaker 6: Right.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Where they, you know, yeah.
- 25:30Speaker 17: And that brings me to, real quick before we wrap,
- 25:33Speaker 17: I saw yesterday Jasmine Guy, she had posted about the
- 25:36Speaker 17: internet being brutal to women as they grow older. And,
- 25:40Speaker 17: you know, people criticize everybody as they get older, but
- 25:43Speaker 17: then they want you to go and live this life.
- 25:45Speaker 17: She said, growing old brings change and I won't pretend
- 25:48Speaker 17: every change is easy, but beauty, style and joy don't
- 25:50Speaker 17: have an expiration date. Let's spend less time judging ourselves
- 25:53Speaker 17: and each other and more time loving each other, making
- 25:56Speaker 17: memories and living the life that we're here to live.
- 25:59Speaker 2: We need to appreciate all these people, why they are here.
- 26:01Speaker 12: Absolutely.
- 26:02Speaker 2: I think it's a blessing to get older.
- 26:03Speaker 6: 100%.
- 26:03Speaker 4: And the fact that Jasmine Guy is on a hit
- 26:05Speaker 4: show on Netflix right now and she looks amazing.
- 26:07Speaker 2: Yes. She's absolutely right.
- 26:09Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 26:10Speaker 2: 100%. Yeah. You better hope to get to 64 years old.
- 26:14Speaker 2: Y'all are crazy. That's what I mean when I see
- 26:16Speaker 2: people shaming. like folks age. I'm like, you do realize

- 28:07Speaker 14: Front Page News is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan, America's
- 28:09Speaker 14: largest injury law firm.
- 28:11Speaker 10: So we start this hour.
- 28:13Speaker 14: In Houston where a mother says a funeral home offered
- 28:16Speaker 14: to bury her five-year-old daughter for free and then handed
- 28:20Speaker 14: her a bill for $ 10, 000. Zalaya Walton, she was shot
- 28:25Speaker 14: and killed while riding in the car with her mother
- 28:27Speaker 14: and four siblings. Police say the man accused of shooting
- 28:30Speaker 14: into the car told investigators he thought it was someone
- 28:33Speaker 14: else's vehicle.
- 28:34Speaker 10: He is now charged with capital murder.
- 28:36Speaker 14: Two days later, at a vigil for the little girl,
- 28:39Speaker 14: the director of Pruitt's Funeral Home publicly offered to handle
- 28:43Speaker 14: her funeral for free. And then two days later, her
- 28:46Speaker 14: mother received a bill in.
- 28:49Speaker 10: The mail for nearly $ 10, 000.
- 28:51Speaker 14: And now the funeral home, they are defending what happened,
- 28:55Speaker 14: saying that it was just protocol. They were asked about
- 29:00Speaker 14: it during a press conference with community leaders.
- 29:02Speaker 2: Let's listen.
- 29:04Speaker 19: To give you an itemized statement.
- 29:05Speaker 2: That is by law.
- 29:06Speaker 10: I'm supposed to give you a funeral contract.
- 29:09Speaker 2: So there was nothing done wrong on our part.
- 29:11Speaker 12: We got a problem with that because you remember what
- 29:12Speaker 12: she said, Brother Cornell? She stated that, well, it's just
- 29:16Speaker 12: an invoice. Well, then why didn't you put no payment
- 29:19Speaker 12: that goes across this invoice? Just letting the mom know
- 29:23Speaker 12: that this is how much this would cost, but we
- 29:27Speaker 12: are deducting it.
- 29:28Speaker 1: But we learned from our investigation They needed the mother's
- 29:32Speaker 1: signature on that invoice so they could bill state, city,
- 29:36Speaker 1: and county agencies' Crime Victim Assistance Fund. to get the money.
- 29:42Speaker 1: So it was never intended to be pro bono.
- 29:44Speaker 5: Yeah, that lady with that black cowboy hat on, she
- 29:47Speaker 5: went to business on her ass.
- 29:48Speaker 2: But the thing is, right, how the.
- 29:51Speaker 5: the employee or the director from the funeral home, she
- 29:54Speaker 5: seemed like she had an attitude when she was speaking
- 29:57Speaker 5: to them at first.
- 29:57Speaker 2: It's like, no, no, no. You told us that you
- 29:59Speaker 2: would do this service pro bono.
- 30:01Speaker 5: And you, and like the lady said, you know, the
- 30:04Speaker 5: family members, she said, yo, it should have been no
- 30:06Speaker 5: payment or void or whatever. Like you still trying to get,
- 30:09Speaker 5: you still trying to get money.
- 30:10Speaker 4: But my question is if it's, if it's protocol, right.
- 30:13Speaker 4: If it's funeral and something happens in funeral and automatically
- 30:15Speaker 4: goes out as an invoice.
- 30:16Speaker 2: Right. And they said, you won't have to pay for it, right?
- 30:20Speaker 2: We'll take care of it.
- 30:21Speaker 4: They probably tried to invoice the state and government because
- 30:23Speaker 4: I'm sure there's a fund that they could probably get.
- 30:25Speaker 4: But if they didn't, do you think they still would
- 30:26Speaker 4: charge the Houston family or it would be free?
- 30:29Speaker 2: You see what I'm saying? Because things happen sometimes. Because
- 30:33Speaker 2: it might be protocol. It might be in the system.
- 30:36Speaker 2: That's how it's logged in.
- 30:37Speaker 4: Like when somebody passes, they have to bill it out
- 30:40Speaker 4: a certain way and it might just be protocol to send.
- 30:43Speaker 2: All I'm hearing is why you got to have things
- 30:44Speaker 2: in writing.
- 30:45Speaker 3: Yeah this is why things should be sent through email
- 30:47Speaker 3: or text message like you got to have some proof
- 30:49Speaker 3: that uh this funeral home told you that they were
- 30:51Speaker 3: going to do this pro bono like as soon as
- 30:53Speaker 3: as soon as they would have.
- 30:54Speaker 2: Told me that i'm like okay can you.
- 30:56Speaker 13: Put that in writing yeah for sure uh well hicks
- 31:03Speaker 13: she has now moved her daughter to another funeral home
- 31:06Speaker 13: uh which also offered to handle it pro bono.
- 31:09Speaker 14: So hopefully they do get that in writing and as
- 31:12Speaker 14: of this morning the family is still preparing to lay
- 31:14Speaker 14: the little girl to rest.
- 31:17Speaker 2: So uh we.
- 31:18Speaker 4: Will continue and it's unfortunate they got to deal with
- 31:21Speaker 4: that during this on top of this right because i'm
- 31:23Speaker 4: sure all they want to do is grieve and bury
- 31:25Speaker 4: their daughter but now they have to deal with the
- 31:27Speaker 4: invoice to press the news it's like i just want
- 31:29Speaker 4: to bury my baby and grieve.
- 31:30Speaker 10: Right absolutely absolutely.
- 31:34Speaker 14: And if you're planning to fly home or fly anywhere
- 31:37Speaker 14: for Thanksgiving or Christmas, you may want to book that
- 31:40Speaker 14: ticket now. Holiday fares, they've climbed the highest they've ever
- 31:44Speaker 14: been in 10 years. The average round-trip ticket for Thanksgiving
- 31:48Speaker 14: and Christmas is nearly $ 100 more than last year.
- 31:51Speaker 10: Now, the reason is jet fuel.
- 31:53Speaker 14: The war with Iran has pushed fuel prices way up,
- 31:56Speaker 14: and airlines, they are passing that cost on to you.
- 31:58Speaker 10: So to save money, travel.
- 32:00Speaker 14: Experts say book before Halloween. Don't wait for prices to
- 32:04Speaker 14: come down, because they probably won't. And they say for Thanksgiving... Thanksgiving,
- 32:08Speaker 14: try to fly Monday or Tuesday instead of a Wednesday,
- 32:12Speaker 14: and avoid flying home on a Sunday. They say that
- 32:15Speaker 14: Sunday flight is going to cost you about $ 250 more.
- 32:18Speaker 3: I'm not going no damn place. The farthest I'm going
- 32:23Speaker 3: is South Carolina. I like to go to the motherland
- 32:27Speaker 3: during the holidays every year. I'm not going nowhere.
- 32:30Speaker 2: That's expensive. I got to go out to the country
- 32:31Speaker 2: in a couple of weeks, and the price for flights... Jesus.
- 32:35Speaker 2: You're crazy, ain't it? What? I mean, it's disrespectful. It's disrespectful.
- 32:39Speaker 2: It's okay to sit your ass down somewhere. Be still,
- 32:41Speaker 2: says the Lord. Okay, and know that I am God.
- 32:44Speaker 6: Right.
- 32:44Speaker 2: Right? Sitting my ass down this holiday season.
- 32:48Speaker 10: Yeah, that's what they're saying.
- 32:50Speaker 14: So, again, if you do decide to go somewhere you
- 32:52Speaker 14: want to go before Halloween, they say that those prices
- 32:56Speaker 14: are going to go up.
- 32:57Speaker 10: And so you've got about, what, 30 days or so,
- 32:59Speaker 10: if that is what you want to do.
- 33:01Speaker 3: Psalm 4610 is the scripture to remember this holiday season, okay?
- 33:05Speaker 3: Be still and know that I am God. Sit your
- 33:08Speaker 3: ass down somewhere, says the Lord.
- 33:11Speaker 2: Okay. All right.
- 33:12Speaker 10: All right, y'all.

- 34:50Speaker 2: Does Miss Pat actually believe in the American dream?
- 34:52Speaker 5: No, there's no such thing. Everybody got their version of
- 34:55Speaker 5: the American dream. And you know how we taught coming up,
- 34:57Speaker 5: American dream is the house of the materialistic thing. But
- 35:00Speaker 5: what is your American dream? I eventually, even when I
- 35:03Speaker 5: was stealing and forging chickens and selling dope, I've had the,
- 35:06Speaker 5: you know, the items and, you know, the you can buy.
- 35:09Speaker 5: But what is the American dream? Is it materialistic or
- 35:13Speaker 5: is it happiness? I learned it's happiness. You can buy
- 35:16Speaker 5: all the purses, all the cars, all the houses you want,
- 35:19Speaker 5: but do that make you happy? And I really saw
- 35:22Speaker 5: when I became like this fame thing. I'm like, y'all

- 39:10Speaker 5: I said, you don't want that life. You looking at somebody,
- 39:13Speaker 5: your mama smoke crack, your auntie be in the jail.
- 39:15Speaker 5: You don't want, he stole my money one time. He
- 39:18Speaker 5: stole $ 1, 600 and put.
- 39:20Speaker 2: It on TikTok. I'm just trying. And then I asked him,
- 39:23Speaker 2: why are you stealing my money?
- 39:24Speaker 5: I'm just trying to get out the hood. I said, bitch,
- 39:26Speaker 5: we live in a 20,000-square-foot house. You got 13 bathrooms.
- 39:29Speaker 2: You can f * * * anywhere. What hood?
- 39:32Speaker 5: I beat him like skin on one side. I gave
- 39:34Speaker 5: him Villa Gorilla.
- 39:35Speaker 2: What is it when you're skin? Yeah, I gave him that.
- 39:38Speaker 2: So what are you stealing my money for? What was
- 39:40Speaker 2: he trying to buy?
- 39:41Speaker 11: What did he go buy?
- 39:42Speaker 2: What the hell did I do? What was he doing
- 39:44Speaker 2: with the money? Flashing it. He told his friends that
- 39:47Speaker 2: he rich.
- 39:48Speaker 5: Because they go to public school.
- 39:50Speaker 2: He told his friends he rich. You ain't rich.
- 39:53Speaker 5: And I beat him so good. So now he just
- 39:55Speaker 5: started smoking weed. So I said, okay, you gots to go.
- 39:58Speaker 5: I said, baby, this your last year of high school.
- 40:00Speaker 5: One thing I'm not going to do is make you
- 40:01Speaker 5: act right. I'm 54 years old. I'm going through middle power.
- 40:04Speaker 5: I just found out my lining dry on one side.
- 40:06Speaker 2: I ain't got time for this shit. What now? My
- 40:09Speaker 2: vagina dry on one side. Oh, it's dry on one side?
- 40:12Speaker 6: Yes.
- 40:12Speaker 2: Yeah, you was going to come there too, girl.
- 40:14Speaker 5: I didn't know.
- 40:15Speaker 2: So how did you come to that conclusion?
- 40:17Speaker 3: How did you figure out one drive?
- 40:22Speaker 5: So what happened is I got up one morning, I
- 40:24Speaker 5: got to walking, and just one side was hurting.
- 40:26Speaker 2: And I'm like, what the f * * *? hurting
- 40:28Speaker 2: on one side.
- 40:28Speaker 5: And you know, I've had gunnery and crabs and I said,
- 40:31Speaker 5: this don't feel like no STD I've ever had in
- 40:34Speaker 5: my life.
- 40:34Speaker 2: So it was crunching on one side. It was crunching.
- 40:37Speaker 2: It was scraping your underwear.
- 40:38Speaker 5: No, it was just pain every time. It felt like
- 40:41Speaker 5: my leg was pulling my lips.
- 40:45Speaker 2: I think that's what Halle Berry was talking about. Do
- 40:47Speaker 2: you remember Halle Berry actually went on a show and
- 40:49Speaker 2: said that before? But I ain't know what creeping from
- 40:53Speaker 2: one side to the other. Yeah, I ain't know.
- 40:54Speaker 5: And you got to be careful how you let them
- 40:56Speaker 5: dog it out. It's like going to Jiffy Lube and saying,
- 40:58Speaker 5: I need a new tie.
- 40:59Speaker 2: I went to the.
- 41:02Speaker 5: I went to the gynecologist and she said my lining
- 41:06Speaker 5: was dry on one side.
- 41:07Speaker 2: And so she gave me this pill to pop in there.
- 41:09Speaker 2: For estrogen?
- 41:11Speaker 3: Yes.
- 41:11Speaker 5: Then you put something in there to hydrate it, I guess.
- 41:14Speaker 2: Yes, to hydrate it.
- 41:15Speaker 5: And let me tell you something, ladies, if you listeners
- 41:18Speaker 5: out there, when you going through menopause and you get
- 41:19Speaker 5: that thing, when you start taking that estrogen, it turn
- 41:22Speaker 5: you into a real... I had hair all in my chest,
- 41:24Speaker 5: on my chin, on my areola.
- 41:27Speaker 2: Oh, they ain't mad on the pill now. Huh?
- 41:29Speaker 3: What?
- 41:29Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 41:33Speaker 5: You bald head. Is that your coming out piece back
- 41:37Speaker 5: there behind you? I knew you was an undercover wheeler.
- 41:41Speaker 2: I'm a wheeler, let me face that.
- 41:48Speaker 5: I know that is happening. He come out the closet.
- 41:54Speaker 2: That is yours.
- 41:55Speaker 19: He's worn it before.
- 41:56Speaker 5: I know you got a pole in your room. And
- 41:58Speaker 5: your wife be saying, I'm going to let you be you, Lenard.
- 42:01Speaker 11: I'm going to let you be you, Lenard.
- 42:02Speaker 5: We're going to keep it in the house. Because you
- 42:05Speaker 5: know Whitney can't remember.
- 42:06Speaker 2: None of this. Now your book talks about learning the
- 42:11Speaker 2: rules of systems, right? That weren't built for you.
- 42:14Speaker 3: What's something you feel poor people are told about success
- 42:17Speaker 3: that you now know is just probably finance.
- 42:20Speaker 5: You know, they never taught us finance. You know, they
- 42:23Speaker 5: never taught us interest rates. And I talk about this,
- 42:26Speaker 5: how not to go to these buy here, pay here
- 42:29Speaker 5: lot calls. They put those things in our community for
- 42:32Speaker 5: an emergency to make it look like we need them.
- 42:35Speaker 5: And now, you know, do you know how many black
- 42:37Speaker 5: people have said, don't go do this? Don't because you
- 42:39Speaker 5: ain't going to never get away from up on it.
- 42:41Speaker 5: So I learned a lot about finance and interest rate
- 42:44Speaker 5: and buying a house. And I just I learned a
- 42:46Speaker 5: lot about finances. And I don't play that s * *
- 42:49Speaker 5: t no more.
- 42:49Speaker 4: Interest only loans were big like 2005, 2010.
- 42:54Speaker 2: A lot of people losing their houses over that.
- 42:55Speaker 5: A lot of people was getting things that they could
- 42:57Speaker 5: not afford. And then they don't realize when that thing
- 43:01Speaker 5: at the end, do you have that money? Because if
- 43:03Speaker 5: you don't have that money, they come to get their stuff.
- 43:05Speaker 5: And that's how they set you up for it. But
- 43:07Speaker 5: they don't tell us that because we just worry about
- 43:09Speaker 5: what we look like in everybody else's eyes. And I
- 43:11Speaker 5: got caught up in that too. So now I don't
- 43:13Speaker 5: give a damn. I don't do that. And even to
- 43:15Speaker 5: this day with black people with good credit, you can
- 43:18Speaker 5: walk in there and they still won't give you the
- 43:20Speaker 5: credit rate that they try to give white people. And
- 43:23Speaker 5: I do that all the time. And I can say
- 43:25Speaker 5: this now because I've not always had a damn near
- 43:28Speaker 5: 800 credit score in American Express. When I go in there,
- 43:30Speaker 5: I don't play no game. No, you're not going to
- 43:33Speaker 5: give me that with this and all the money I
- 43:36Speaker 5: got in the bank. I can get a discount on
- 43:39Speaker 5: General Motors. And every time I go in there, they
- 43:41Speaker 5: don't ever want to give me the docking fee. That's
- 43:43Speaker 5: what they paid to bring the car over here, unless
- 43:45Speaker 5: I ask for it. So you have to go in there.
- 43:48Speaker 5: When you buy the.
- 43:48Speaker 2: Car, don't just buy the first thing. Shop around.
- 43:51Speaker 5: Because they're going to pull your credit anyway. And you've
- 43:53Speaker 5: got to remember, the interest rate they give you, that
- 43:55Speaker 5: ain't what came from the bank. They added something to it.
- 43:58Speaker 5: So you have to ask them, take your s * * * off.
- 44:00Speaker 5: Take yours off. Because you're going to make money anyway.
- 44:02Speaker 2: You wrote the loan.
- 44:03Speaker 5: But we don't know that.
- 44:04Speaker 2: You cannot be.
- 44:06Speaker 5: in life scared to say no and that's what i
- 44:08Speaker 5: learned in this book you can't miss nothing that you
- 44:10Speaker 5: ain't never had i tell them right to this day
- 44:13Speaker 5: if you have me i'm bringing my own hair makeup
- 44:15Speaker 5: well they ain't union i don't give a damn i
- 44:16Speaker 5: know what i look like i'm fat i've been abused
- 44:19Speaker 5: well i'm thick now yeah yeah so i i need
- 44:22Speaker 5: to bring my own people i need to do my
- 44:24Speaker 5: you cannot be scared to ask for things in this
- 44:26Speaker 5: business but they have trained black actors and black people
- 44:29Speaker 5: Don't you be too... Don't you ask for too much.
- 44:31Speaker 5: Don't you do too much because you might not get
- 44:33Speaker 5: the job.
- 44:33Speaker 2: Be happy to be there.
- 44:34Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not happy to be nowhere. I'm a comedian.
- 44:36Speaker 5: I'm going to forever tell jokes so you're never going
- 44:38Speaker 5: to control me. I've sold a... and kept the money.
- 44:41Speaker 2: God damn! I'm sorry. This is a... show. Mine when
- 44:45Speaker 2: you couldn't see it. I love it.
- 44:49Speaker 5: You think by the pound? By the pound.
- 44:53Speaker 2: By the pound is insane. I wish they did. I
- 44:56Speaker 2: wish they did.
- 44:58Speaker 5: Every time you lift my thighs.
- 45:02Speaker 4: Was it hard to write this book or easy? Because
- 45:03Speaker 4: you talk about a lot of the stuff that's in
- 45:05Speaker 4: this book. We've talked to you a million and one times.
- 45:06Speaker 4: So was it difficult reliving some of those moments?
- 45:09Speaker 2: Yes.
- 45:09Speaker 5: And I tell you why, because I'm so busy now.
- 45:12Speaker 5: The first book I had going on, but this book,
- 45:15Speaker 5: the same lady who wrote and I have a ghostwriter,
- 45:18Speaker 5: the same lady who wrote this book, you know, wrote
- 45:20Speaker 5: the last one. So it was a lot of getting
- 45:22Speaker 5: me to sit down and remember. and get me to
- 45:24Speaker 5: sit down and have those conversations and bring out those things.
- 45:27Speaker 5: And then as I read, I was like, I ain't
- 45:28Speaker 5: tell you this shit.
- 45:29Speaker 2: It didn't happen like this. It happened like this.
- 45:31Speaker 5: So it was a lot of back and forth, you know,
- 45:33Speaker 5: because she had a conversation for me for the last
- 45:35Speaker 5: 10 years, and she put a lot of that stuff
- 45:37Speaker 5: in that I had to go back and say, okay, Janine,
- 45:39Speaker 5: I remember this. Let me tell you how it happened.
- 45:42Speaker 5: So it was harder this time. You know, thank you
- 45:45Speaker 5: for this book, but I don't have to keep writing
- 45:47Speaker 5: books like Charlemagne.
- 45:47Speaker 2: You know what's crazy?
- 45:49Speaker 3: Coming from where you come from, Ms. Pat, people probably
- 45:51Speaker 3: be like, if Ms. Pat did it, anybody can do it.
- 45:53Speaker 5: And I hear that all the time. And you can
- 45:55Speaker 5: do it. And you can do it. It's just a
- 45:58Speaker 5: dream that we all sitting here that, hey, you just
- 46:00Speaker 5: got to put forth the effort and work for it.
- 46:02Speaker 2: And you can't tell.
- 46:03Speaker 5: Don't ever let nobody tell you what you can and
- 46:05Speaker 5: can't do. You know, this is like the drug deal.
- 46:08Speaker 5: And I've said this a hundred times. When I go
- 46:10Speaker 5: into Hollywood, this is like me selling dope. I got
- 46:12Speaker 5: something to sell these people, so let me convince them
- 46:14Speaker 5: and let me get them hooked on the cocaine so
- 46:16Speaker 5: I can be the supplier.
- 46:17Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 46:18Speaker 5: But you got to believe that you can walk into
- 46:20Speaker 5: these rooms and that you belong. Or you're going to
- 46:22Speaker 5: go in there and get smaller.
- 46:24Speaker 3: What do you say to people in the hood who
- 46:26Speaker 3: working their ass off? They working hard as hell, but
- 46:28Speaker 3: they feel like they can never escape poverty. Two and
- 46:30Speaker 3: three jobs.
- 46:31Speaker 2: Don't call me at me for no money.
- 46:37Speaker 5: Because you know what? Since this economy is so bad,
- 46:39Speaker 5: why don't you ask me for money? I ain't got
- 46:41Speaker 5: no goddamn money. I love y'all, but stop asking me
- 46:44Speaker 5: to borrow shit. This ain't no borrowing economy. You ain't
- 46:47Speaker 5: going to be able to get this shit back. We
- 46:49Speaker 5: need some COVID checks. We need some PPP loans. What
- 46:55Speaker 5: I would say is don't call me and just keep praying.
- 46:59Speaker 2: Because it is rough.
- 47:03Speaker 5: I passed a gas station. I passed a gas station.
- 47:08Speaker 2: I'm in Atlanta.
- 47:09Speaker 11: It's $ 4.
- 47:09Speaker 2: 00. I said, I know my people can't get to work.
- 47:13Speaker 5: Everybody on the bus.
- 47:14Speaker 2: That means you ain't putting super in your car. Yeah.
- 47:16Speaker 2: I am putting super. But that ain't no $ 4 super.
- 47:20Speaker 5: But I park the car that needs super.
- 47:23Speaker 3: And I have a GMC Yukon. That's what a bunch
- 47:26Speaker 3: of truck drivers doing. I know so many truck drivers like, man,
- 47:29Speaker 3: I can't even afford to drive. I'm just parking the
- 47:30Speaker 3: truck for now.
- 47:31Speaker 5: You gonna have to because, I mean, my main car
- 47:34Speaker 5: is a G-Wagon.
- 47:35Speaker 2: I'm not driving that shit with that premium. I ain't
- 47:37Speaker 2: gotta be serious.
- 47:37Speaker 5: I'm gonna look like a soccer mom.
- 47:39Speaker 2: I got me a Yukon.
- 47:40Speaker 5: Y'all know what y'all crazy ass.
- 47:41Speaker 2: Are making up. I think four miles to the gallon, five,
- 47:44Speaker 2: something ridiculous. That's expensive.
- 47:46Speaker 5: Yes, and then not only that, the tires, the brakes,
- 47:49Speaker 5: I paid $ 10, 000 one time. One time I paid.
- 47:52Speaker 2: $ 10, 000 for them brakes. And I said, you know what?
- 47:54Speaker 2: $ 2, 500 each. I said, I ain't got to do this.
- 47:56Speaker 2: I went out and bought me a Lexus.
- 47:58Speaker 5: I said, this is for rich people. This bitch is
- 48:01Speaker 5: an ornament for my driveway. It be sitting there, the
- 48:04Speaker 5: tire be going low. I said, son, go put some
- 48:06Speaker 5: air in that tire and bring that shit back in
- 48:08Speaker 5: the parking. You talking about the G-Wagon? Yeah, I don't
- 48:10Speaker 5: drive that shit. And then I'm fat anyway, so I
- 48:12Speaker 5: got to pull on the handlebars.
- 48:13Speaker 2: Stop saying you fat, man.
- 48:14Speaker 6: Let me tell.
- 48:15Speaker 5: You something, you black son of a... You been calling
- 48:18Speaker 5: me fat for the last 10 years.

- 48:22Speaker 2: never called me fat fat. What did you call her? Fat.
- 48:24Speaker 5: Until that other lady came in and he gave her
- 48:26Speaker 5: that foot scoop and two sofas.
- 48:28Speaker 3: That's when that cat became not fat. I've never called
- 48:31Speaker 3: you fat. I say comedian of size. I ain't never.
- 48:34Speaker 2: Said you were fat. You were never that professional when
- 48:36Speaker 2: you said it. You did say some rude and disrespectful.
- 48:38Speaker 11: S * * *.
- 48:40Speaker 5: But that's fine because this is an ugly calling me fast.
- 48:43Speaker 5: This ain't nobody I would ever do nothing with you.
- 48:45Speaker 5: You think I want Wendy Williams left over?
- 48:48Speaker 2: I don't want nothing.

- 49:09Speaker 5: That's why he high because you a victim. Damn, bro.
- 49:14Speaker 5: Somebody got to get it.
- 49:15Speaker 2: He ain't going to deny it.
- 49:17Speaker 5: He ain't going to deny it. Well, that's how y'all
- 49:20Speaker 5: became with this right here.
- 49:21Speaker 3: No, I'm just denying that part.
- 49:26Speaker 5: That's how y'all became the breakfast.
- 49:28Speaker 2: Because you was wanting somebody else's breakfast. Come over here, sucker.
- 49:34Speaker 5: I know that's how she... She look just like you
- 49:37Speaker 5: without that wig. Her thighs is dripping. Oh, man.

- 49:47Speaker 2: the movie show. It's crazy.
- 49:49Speaker 5: You miss them thighs, don't you? You miss putting them
- 49:52Speaker 5: little bald heads... Little bald head on them tall tits.
- 49:55Speaker 2: It isn't true. It's a comedian, y'all. It is true.
- 49:58Speaker 2: Sometimes you gotta.
- 49:59Speaker 5: You gotta sweep your way to the top and that's
- 50:02Speaker 5: why he's dead. He slept his way to the top.
- 50:06Speaker 2: Don't deny. Don't deny.
- 50:08Speaker 5: If I'd have slept my way to the top, I
- 50:09Speaker 5: would be talking about it too, but I had the
- 50:11Speaker 5: work card.
- 50:12Speaker 2: Then we living.
- 50:13Speaker 5: Then we baby. Then we had the work card. He
- 50:16Speaker 5: did the right thing. That's why she got dementia.
- 50:19Speaker 2: You wanted to forget? Yeah.
- 50:24Speaker 5: If I slept with you, I wanted to forget too.
- 50:25Speaker 5: That's why we never seen your wife.
- 50:28Speaker 2: She wouldn't let you come in the garage. She wanted
- 50:33Speaker 2: to forget. I know that you really do look out
- 50:37Speaker 2: for people.
- 50:38Speaker 5: Like the seven kids that you have that you just
- 50:40Speaker 5: took in more.
- 50:41Speaker 2: Do you.
- 50:42Speaker 5: What is the conversation like? Did you explain to them
- 50:45Speaker 5: why you took them in?
- 50:47Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
- 50:47Speaker 5: Because the reason why I'm asking this question is because
- 50:49Speaker 5: my mother did the same thing to her sister's kids.
- 50:51Speaker 2: My mother was... I mean my.
- 50:53Speaker 5: aunt was an addict and she had nine kids and
- 50:56Speaker 5: she just kept having them because she knew that the
- 50:58Speaker 5: family wouldn't let them go in the system and so
- 51:02Speaker 5: my mom found it very hard to explain to two
- 51:06Speaker 5: of the nine that she took why they were there
- 51:09Speaker 5: because they were asking they got to her around like
- 51:11Speaker 5: seven or eight and they were just like why can't
- 51:13Speaker 5: I go back with my mom and that was the
- 51:14Speaker 5: hardest thing for her to do well with these new
- 51:16Speaker 5: kids these kids didn't know me because their mom is
- 51:20Speaker 5: in prison right now And they had a caregiver, which
- 51:23Speaker 5: was a childhood friend who had them ever since they
- 51:25Speaker 5: was a baby. And the caregiver passed away. And then
- 51:28Speaker 5: the family called me. So these kids only knew me
- 51:30Speaker 5: from TV. And they didn't want to go. And I
- 51:33Speaker 5: didn't want them either. You know, I didn't want another
- 51:35Speaker 5: set of kids. I'm 54 years old. But we got
- 51:38Speaker 5: together with her family and with me. And we explained
- 51:41Speaker 5: to the kids, I'm your aunt. And, you know, I'm
- 51:44Speaker 5: their grandaunt. And this would be the better place for
- 51:47Speaker 5: you right now.
- 51:48Speaker 2: Because it was six kids. I only took the three girls.
- 51:50Speaker 5: OK, so and then I sit the kids down and
- 51:53Speaker 5: I explain to them because they only knew me from TV.
- 51:55Speaker 5: You know, they knew that they caregiver, their nanny, the
- 51:58Speaker 5: only person they ever taken care of them because I
- 52:00Speaker 5: didn't take care of them. You know, they're my lady did.
- 52:03Speaker 5: And I just say, you know, she's no longer here.
- 52:05Speaker 5: So I'm going to stand in her place for you.
- 52:07Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 52:07Speaker 5: And they was a little rebellious at first, but they
- 52:10Speaker 5: coming around now.
- 52:11Speaker 2: They're coming around.
- 52:12Speaker 3: Have you learned the difference between helping somebody and enabling
- 52:15Speaker 3: them though?
- 52:15Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Yeah. I say that.
- 52:17Speaker 5: My sister smoke crack. She always calling me with a story.

- 53:02Speaker 4: kind of up my ass.
- 53:03Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, shit. I had to put the wash rag.
- 53:07Speaker 2: Did you like it? That's how I like it. That's
- 53:10Speaker 2: how I like it. And how he made it crooked
- 53:12Speaker 2: when you did it. You see that, right? Tell her why.
- 53:15Speaker 19: Tell her why you wasn't washing your ass properly.
- 53:17Speaker 5: It came from what? Because you thought that it was
- 53:19Speaker 5: a little gay to get up in there, to dig
- 53:21Speaker 5: in there.
- 53:21Speaker 2: You got to get up in your boob. I didn't

- 55:56Speaker 2: I got somebody to love me.
- 55:57Speaker 5: Whether them kids hate me for taking their phone, whether
- 56:00Speaker 5: they cross their eyes and I have to whoop their asses,
- 56:02Speaker 5: but I know that I'm loved. And it's real love.
- 56:05Speaker 5: It's real love. It ain't the s * * *
- 56:07Speaker 5: that I grew up in the house with. People say
- 56:09Speaker 5: they love you, but don't protect you. I got real love.
- 56:11Speaker 2: And that's all I ever wanted.
- 56:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 56:13Speaker 2: And them kids going to appreciate that later on. Yes,
- 56:16Speaker 2: they will.
- 56:16Speaker 5: All of that chastising and, you know, discipline rightfully. So
- 56:20Speaker 5: they will appreciate that. You know, we never like our parents.
- 56:23Speaker 5: And one thing I never, I don't hide anything from
- 56:26Speaker 5: the kids. that I'm raising, I say, hey, and like
- 56:29Speaker 5: my nephew, I just told you, I call him Smokey,
- 56:30Speaker 5: I just tell him all the time, that.
- 56:31Speaker 2: Ain't the life you want. You know what I'm saying?
- 56:33Speaker 2: You already, you black, you born with two stripes.
- 56:35Speaker 5: Your first one is you black, the next one is
- 56:37Speaker 5: you a black man in this country that we in.
- 56:39Speaker 5: I said, so you need to go out and prove
- 56:42Speaker 5: these people wrong. Because no matter what degree you get
- 56:44Speaker 5: or how big your life get, you always going to
- 56:47Speaker 5: be a n * * * a. So why not
- 56:49Speaker 5: be an intelligent, smart m * * * a? I
- 56:51Speaker 5: tell him all the time, he'll come out. I've never
- 56:53Speaker 5: seen kids who got everything in their closet but come
- 56:56Speaker 5: out looking like a bomb every day.
- 56:58Speaker 2: And I have to say, turn around. You represent me.
- 57:00Speaker 2: You're already in public school. That's bad enough.
- 57:02Speaker 5: Go put that, take that away. There's nothing wrong with
- 57:06Speaker 5: public school, but he's just dressed like a bomb.
- 57:08Speaker 2: With the clothes.
- 57:09Speaker 5: And it's like they like to look like that. Remember
- 57:12Speaker 5: back in the day, like when we had to look
- 57:14Speaker 5: like that. Like they love to look like that.
- 57:16Speaker 2: We didn't have that.
- 57:18Speaker 19: We didn't have an iron.
- 57:18Speaker 2: You know what my brother did?
- 57:20Speaker 5: He would spray starch on his pants and put them
- 57:22Speaker 5: up under the mattress and lay on them because they
- 57:23Speaker 5: would be crisp in the morning.
- 57:25Speaker 2: These kids don't know nothing about that.
- 57:26Speaker 5: They don't know nothing about having two pair of drawers
- 57:28Speaker 5: washing them out and putting a blow dryer in them.
- 57:30Speaker 5: And then if not, you hang them outside at night
- 57:33Speaker 5: and hopefully your next door neighbor don't steal your drawer.
- 57:36Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
- 57:36Speaker 2: But they don't know nothing about their struggle.
- 57:38Speaker 3: You used to hang your drawers up?
- 57:41Speaker 2: I got half mad.
- 57:43Speaker 5: You talking, Whitney Williams. While you talking, I used to
- 57:48Speaker 5: be a 9'10, so I was fine as wine before
- 57:51Speaker 5: I got that first baby and a couple abortions.
- 57:53Speaker 2: So that's what you're looking at, leftover.
- 57:55Speaker 5: Abortion and shit that happened to me. Because I used
- 57:58Speaker 5: to be that bitch, and I still am.
- 58:00Speaker 2: That's right. It's the American dream, baby. I'm back now.
- 58:04Speaker 5: Just because you don't like them thick, that don't mean
- 58:06Speaker 5: s * * *. And keep washing your a * * envy.

- 59:29Speaker 3: But our producer Taylor said, what happened to your arm?
- 59:31Speaker 19: I thought something happened to my arm.
- 59:33Speaker 2: I thought something happened earlier. Taylor acted like a little kid.
- 59:36Speaker 2: You didn't check on me. You were just looking at it.
- 59:38Speaker 2: Taylor looked like a little kid. Taylor will just see
- 59:40Speaker 2: something and just say it. What happened to your arm?
- 59:43Speaker 10: What happened to your arm?
- 59:44Speaker 2: My God. You got it. All right. You got it.
- 59:49Speaker 2: you go girl damn.
- 59:50Speaker 17: Okay LeBron James so yeah so we got our look
- 59:54Speaker 17: at LeBron James in the Sixers jersey yesterday was media
- 59:57Speaker 17: day and you put your New York Knicks hat on
- 1:00:00Speaker 17: we'll be playing the Knicks I see what team you're
- 1:00:02Speaker 17: riding for Envy but LeBron is talking about a couple
- 1:00:05Speaker 17: different things he's talking about the fact that he almost
- 1:00:07Speaker 17: would have signed with the Knicks let's take a listen
- 1:00:09Speaker 17: to that.
- 1:00:10Speaker 22: You said during your press conference you're still learning the
- 1:00:12Speaker 22: streets here everything are you going to be living here
- 1:00:15Speaker 22: both so multiple.
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: Residences yeah multiple residences okay.
- 1:00:19Speaker 22: I assume the other place where you're going to have
- 1:00:21Speaker 22: a residence is New York. Rich Paul said over the
- 1:00:23Speaker 22: summer that had the Knicks not won the championship, it
- 1:00:26Speaker 22: would have.
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: Been a pretty easy decision for you. You're signing up
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: to play with the Knicks. Is that accurate?
- 1:00:31Speaker 22: And what was that like, I guess, knowing that that
- 1:00:34Speaker 22: option was off the table when they beat the Spurs?
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: No, it's pretty accurate.
- 1:00:38Speaker 21: I have visions of definitely playing in a garden, finishing
- 1:00:41Speaker 21: my career in a garden, one of the best places
- 1:00:42Speaker 21: I've ever played. I think it's the number one arena
- 1:00:44Speaker 21: in the world as far as a basketball player. But
- 1:00:46Speaker 21: after they beat San Antonio, I was like, I couldn't
- 1:00:49Speaker 21: do it.
- 1:00:50Speaker 18: Y'all wouldn't have let me lay that down at all.
- 1:00:55Speaker 18: But much respect to the Knicks, obviously. Unbelievable team, unbelievable players.
- 1:00:59Speaker 18: Shout out Jalen Brunson. Love that guy. He's unbelievable. But yeah,
- 1:01:02Speaker 18: I'm happy where I'm at, and I'm looking forward to it.
- 1:01:04Speaker 17: What's wrong with players going to teams just to chase rings?
- 1:01:07Speaker 17: Why do y'all do that to a LeBron-level player? Why
- 1:01:10Speaker 17: couldn't he go to the Knicks? explain it to me
- 1:01:14Speaker 17: for me i think we come i think i think
- 1:01:19Speaker 17: we come from the era where people uh did what
- 1:01:22Speaker 17: they had to do to make their team better like
- 1:01:23Speaker 17: we seen jordan lose a bunch of times and work
- 1:01:26Speaker 17: out and do what he has to do get the
- 1:01:27Speaker 17: right players to win and we always we look down
- 1:01:30Speaker 17: upon players who were great and went from team to
- 1:01:32Speaker 17: team to chase and to chase a ring you stayed
- 1:01:35Speaker 17: on that team and you won that ring we seen
- 1:01:36Speaker 17: it with Magic, we've.
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: Seen it with Jordan. We've seen it with so many
- 1:01:40Speaker 2: other people.
- 1:01:40Speaker 19: But he has four rings, right?
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: He does. I agree with Derek Fisher. It's just like,
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: why not? Why can't he go out and play?
- 1:01:49Speaker 3: First of all, I don't like the way that you
- 1:01:51Speaker 3: just assumed that everybody in the room had.
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: A problem with it. You put your hand up. I
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: put my hand up to you because you're just assuming things.
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: I agree with Derek Fisher.
- 1:01:59Speaker 3: Derek Fisher said you're not ring chasing if you're the
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: reason the team gets a ring. And that is what
- 1:02:05Speaker 3: LeBron and James has been. He goes to these teams,
- 1:02:08Speaker 3: and he's the reason that these teams get a ring.
- 1:02:09Speaker 12: Yes, yes.
- 1:02:10Speaker 4: I still think he's ring-chasing. I don't have a problem
- 1:02:12Speaker 4: with it. He can do whatever he wants to do.
- 1:02:13Speaker 4: He's controlling his own destiny. But I think it would
- 1:02:15Speaker 4: have felt a lot better if he would have stayed
- 1:02:17Speaker 4: in Cleveland and won those four rings.
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: Oh, for sure. Four rings in Cleveland is like, yeah.
- 1:02:21Speaker 3: I mean, that one ring he got in Cleveland is
- 1:02:23Speaker 3: worth a lot more than some other people's rings. Yes, absolutely.
- 1:02:27Speaker 3: But I agree with what Derek Fisher said. I don't
- 1:02:29Speaker 3: think it's ring-chasing if you're the reason of the... The
- 1:02:32Speaker 3: team gets a ring.
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: And now, I wouldn't mind him on New York Knicks.
- 1:02:35Speaker 2: I would have loved to see it. I would have
- 1:02:37Speaker 2: loved to see LeBron. You know, the best player in
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: this generation. Y'all want a ring. Who cares? Y'all want
- 1:02:42Speaker 2: a ring. I know, but I still would mind him
- 1:02:44Speaker 2: seeing on the Knicks. It's just watching him on the Knicks.
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: I actually think the ring the Knicks won is better
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: without a LeBron. Yeah, it is. Because it's a team thing. Yeah,
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: it's a team thing.
- 1:02:53Speaker 3: There's no one individual. I mean, of course, Jalen Brunson,
- 1:02:55Speaker 3: of course. But no one individual gets all the credit
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: for that ring.
- 1:02:58Speaker 2: But if he played for the Knicks this year, I
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: would have a problem. problem with it.
- 1:03:00Speaker 4: I would have loved to see LeBron play his last
- 1:03:01Speaker 4: couple of years with a LeBron jersey. I thought that
- 1:03:03Speaker 4: would be still the best player of this generation.
- 1:03:04Speaker 5: Everybody got a problem until you come to 18.
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: Once again, that's why it's not ring chasing. Well, if
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: he wins the ring in Philly, who's going to get
- 1:03:14Speaker 2: the credit?
- 1:03:14Speaker 3: LeBron?
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: Yeah, him. Yeah?
- 1:03:16Speaker 17: Well, over in L.A., Bronny, they were having a conversation
- 1:03:19Speaker 17: with Bronny on the Lakers about him making his own name.
- 1:03:23Speaker 17: Let's listen to one of the first questions they asked him.
- 1:03:26Speaker 17: So they asked him about his first season without LeBron.
- 1:03:28Speaker 17: Let's take a listen to that.
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: How did it feel for you? First media day without
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: LeBron here. Just how did that feel for you? Coming
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: to the facility and just, I guess, partaking in that day.
- 1:03:40Speaker 7: Feels like he's not here. I don't really have an
- 1:03:45Speaker 7: opinion on that. You know, as my dad, I spent
- 1:03:49Speaker 7: 22 years almost with him. So, yeah, just another, I guess,
- 1:03:52Speaker 7: experience that I'm going to be a part of. And
- 1:03:54Speaker 7: I'm excited to, you know, how it's going to feel
- 1:03:57Speaker 7: during the season, too. So, looking forward to it.
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: Or Bronny.
- 1:04:01Speaker 6: What?
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: He never going to.
- 1:04:03Speaker 19: I mean, he says he wants to prove himself this season.
- 1:04:05Speaker 19: We have that audio. But I just feel like he's
- 1:04:06Speaker 19: always going to be. LeBron James Jr.
- 1:04:09Speaker 17: He's not going to ever be able to carve out
- 1:04:11Speaker 17: his own lane for himself.
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: His dad's one of the greatest. Yeah, which is amazing.
- 1:04:17Speaker 4: But he has the opportunity to prove himself. What he
- 1:04:21Speaker 4: can do in the league for the Lakers, we'll see.
- 1:04:24Speaker 17: We have the audio where he talks a bit about that.
- 1:04:25Speaker 17: Let's take a listen to LeBron. I was about to
- 1:04:28Speaker 17: call him LeBron. He is LeBron, but on making his
- 1:04:30Speaker 17: own name.
- 1:04:31Speaker 7: For me, just the motivating factor of creating my own
- 1:04:36Speaker 7: path and my own career. It just makes me want
- 1:04:39Speaker 7: to get up every day and work hard and come
- 1:04:42Speaker 7: in the gym and learn from guys that have.
- 1:04:45Speaker 2: Been here longer than me.
- 1:04:47Speaker 7: I think it's just something that I've followed my entire life.
- 1:04:52Speaker 7: You guys know me as Bronny.
- 1:04:53Speaker 2: My real name is LeBron.
- 1:04:55Speaker 7: I've been doing this for however long, so I think
- 1:04:59Speaker 7: it's a motivating factor for me just getting up every
- 1:05:01Speaker 7: day and trying to prove myself as Bronny instead of LeBron.
- 1:05:05Speaker 11: Is it exciting for you as this new.
- 1:05:08Speaker 2: challenge without your dad there exciting.
- 1:05:10Speaker 7: Yes for sure i'm you know i'm ready to get
- 1:05:12Speaker 7: out there and play so.
- 1:05:14Speaker 3: Did he make the roster has he made i'm asking
- 1:05:17Speaker 3: the question i think he did.
- 1:05:20Speaker 2: Oh okay i don't know i'm asking.
- 1:05:22Speaker 4: I mean i just want to see him the first
- 1:05:24Speaker 4: game just try to dunk right on his pops just
- 1:05:25Speaker 4: show his pops like you.
- 1:05:26Speaker 2: Shut up boy i want to see yeah He ain't
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: dunk on nobody. How the hell you gonna dunk on
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: his pops? Dunk on his pops.
- 1:05:34Speaker 19: Good luck this season, Bronny.
- 1:05:36Speaker 2: Yes, that's it. Good luck.
- 1:05:37Speaker 4: Come throw in the pick and just pick his dad
- 1:05:39Speaker 4: crazy and let his dad fall on the floor but
- 1:05:41Speaker 4: right through him.
- 1:05:41Speaker 2: Just let him get on the court.
- 1:05:43Speaker 19: Just let him play, all right?
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: Don't do that to him. Listen, I think it's an accomplishment.
- 1:05:47Speaker 3: If he's made the roster this year, I think it's
- 1:05:49Speaker 3: an accomplishment that he's.
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: Made the roster without his father already.
- 1:05:53Speaker 6: Oh, cool.
- 1:05:53Speaker 2: I think that within itself is an accomplishment.
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: That's cool.
- 1:05:55Speaker 4: I mean, an accomplishment just making it to the league,
- 1:05:57Speaker 4: but congratulations. I want to see Bronny do good. He
- 1:06:00Speaker 4: made it to the league because of his father. And
- 1:06:01Speaker 4: that's perfectly fine, too. I have no problem with the nepotism.
- 1:06:03Speaker 3: That's why I think if he makes the Lakers roster
- 1:06:07Speaker 3: this year, which y'all saying he did, and his father's
- 1:06:09Speaker 3: not there, that's an accomplishment.
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: Yeah, well.
- 1:06:12Speaker 17: Good luck this season, Bronny. That was the latest this hour.
- 1:06:16Speaker 17: And the next latest, we're going to talk about Jacquees.
- 1:06:18Speaker 17: We talked about yesterday, you know, and the rest that
- 1:06:21Speaker 17: happened with Jacquees down in Florida. He says it was
- 1:06:22Speaker 17: all AI. So we'll get into it.
- 1:06:24Speaker 2: Oh, God. All right.
- 1:06:27Speaker 11: Charlemagne.
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: Yes.
- 1:06:28Speaker 3: You know, this morning, man, I love a good teachable moment.
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: So I need everybody who has been, I guess, clowning
- 1:06:36Speaker 3: Jasmine guy for aging to come to the front of
- 1:06:38Speaker 3: the congregation.
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: I'd like to have a word with them.
- 1:06:40Speaker 19: I am so happy.
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: And guess what? By the time I do it at
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: 8 or 4, we're all going to be older. So
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: we'll discuss. All right. We'll get to that next. All right.
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: It's the breakfast logo morning.
- 1:06:49Speaker 11: It's time for Donkey of the Day.
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: There's a bunch of donkeys out here in the street.
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: I'll make Donkey of the Day. Call Donkey of the Day.
- 1:06:56Speaker 2: It really caught me off guard. We live a life
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: where we bite our tongue based off who we may offend.
- 1:07:00Speaker 2: We never would say anything.
- 1:07:01Speaker 19: Charlamagne, give it to him.
- 1:07:02Speaker 2: Give it to him. You are a donkey. That is
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: why Charlamagne is here.
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: Ah!
- 1:07:10Speaker 2: Some donkey today's just saw themselves.
- 1:07:12Speaker 11: On The Breakfast Club.
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: Okay, Chalamet, who you giving donkey of the day to today?
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: Well, donkey of the day for Tuesday, September 29th is
- 1:07:18Speaker 3: going to everybody on social media who has decided to
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: make the homie Jasmine Guy a target. Yes, the good
- 1:07:24Speaker 3: sister Jasmine Guy has reprised her role as Whitley Gilbert
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: on a different world sequel now playing on Netflix. Drop
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: on the clues bombs for the different world sequel on Netflix.
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: She was 31.
- 1:07:35Speaker 3: When the show ended in 1993 and she is 64
- 1:07:38Speaker 3: years old now in 2026. And for some reason, people
- 1:07:42Speaker 3: on social media have just discovered this thing that's going
- 1:07:44Speaker 3: to happen to all of us.
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: If you're blessed. And it's called aging.
- 1:07:49Speaker 3: Okay, I don't know when y'all decided that aging was
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: some type of character flaw.
- 1:07:53Speaker 2: But let's discuss this.
- 1:07:54Speaker 3: Morning because I'm always down for a teachable moment. So
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: from what I gather, social media was critiquing Jasmine Guy's appearance.
- 1:08:01Speaker 3: And so she decided to reply with a post on
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: social media. Let's go to Entertainment Tonight to hear what
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: she had to say.
- 1:08:07Speaker 10: I was so excited to hear that they were bringing
- 1:08:09Speaker 10: A Different World back.
- 1:08:10Speaker 5: I love that the OGs get to come back, too.
- 1:08:15Speaker 5: That's been a lot of fun.
- 1:08:16Speaker 8: Jasmine's back at Hillman College as Whitley Gilbert-Wayne for Netflix's
- 1:08:20Speaker 8: all-new take on A Different World. And her older appearance?
- 1:08:24Speaker 8: Catching her some strays online. With critics questioning the way
- 1:08:28Speaker 8: she's aging. For the record, she's 64.
- 1:08:32Speaker 5: I was trying to do the math, but I'm not
- 1:08:33Speaker 5: good at math, I think. I know I was 25
- 1:08:37Speaker 5: when I got a different world.
- 1:08:39Speaker 8: Jasmine taking to the gram after the reboot's premiere, showing
- 1:08:42Speaker 8: off her getting glam for a party scene, and writing,
- 1:08:45Speaker 8: the internet can be brutal to women as we grow older.
- 1:08:48Speaker 8: It asks us to celebrate life while criticizing every sign
- 1:08:52Speaker 8: that we've lived in. Growing older brings change, and I
- 1:08:55Speaker 8: won't pretend every change is easy, but beauty, style, and
- 1:08:59Speaker 8: joy don't have an expiration date. Let's spend less time
- 1:09:02Speaker 8: judging ourselves and each other and more time loving each other,
- 1:09:06Speaker 8: making memories, and living the life we're here to live.
- 1:09:09Speaker 3: First of all, Jasmine Guy is beautiful inside and out, okay?
- 1:09:12Speaker 3: She's just a beautiful spirit. Second of all, Jasmine Guy
- 1:09:14Speaker 3: is 64 years old.
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: 64!
- 1:09:17Speaker 3: And you heathens online are discussing how she looks now
- 1:09:20Speaker 3: compared to how she looked as Whitley Gilbert on A
- 1:09:22Speaker 3: Different World in 1988? You mean to tell me a woman,
- 1:09:26Speaker 3: a person, looks different in 2026 than they did in 1988? Well,
- 1:09:32Speaker 3: somebody call Scooby-Doo and the gang because we got ourselves
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: a mystery to solve, okay? If you are sitting around
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: asking yourself, What happened to Jasmine Guy? The answer is time,
- 1:09:42Speaker 3: Mother Effa.
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: Okay? Time happened. All right?
- 1:09:45Speaker 3: The same thing that's happening to you, me, him, and
- 1:09:50Speaker 3: her right now.
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: Even today, he's got to age. Okay? When I was young,
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: I made fun of people being old, too.
- 1:09:57Speaker 3: But I quickly realized that every single one of us
- 1:09:59Speaker 3: has a birthday. And if you're blessed, you will receive
- 1:10:02Speaker 3: as many birthdays as possible.
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: Okay? I don't understand people making fun of somebody for
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: getting older simply because.
- 1:10:09Speaker 3: As you're typing about somebody aging, you're aging while you
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: type it, okay? You started that tweet younger than you
- 1:10:18Speaker 3: finished it, all right? Every second you're roasting somebody's wrinkles,
- 1:10:22Speaker 3: you're getting closer to your own. And some of y'all
- 1:10:24Speaker 3: need to stop worrying about Jasmine Guy's face and start
- 1:10:26Speaker 3: worrying about.
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: Your knees, okay? You're talking about Whitley don't look the same.
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: Neither do you, all right? You watched A Different World
- 1:10:33Speaker 2: when it originally aired. You couldn't even get off the
- 1:10:36Speaker 2: couch this weekend without making a noise. Okay, if you
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: was binge-watching A Different World, I know you had to
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: get up to stretch between episodes. Your ankle's cracking, lower
- 1:10:45Speaker 2: back hurting.
- 1:10:46Speaker 3: You got reading glasses sitting on top of your regular glasses.
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: Talking about what happened to Jasmine Guy. Age, okay? And
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: it's going to happen to you, too, if you're blessed,
- 1:10:54Speaker 2: all right? You remember.
- 1:10:56Speaker 3: Whitley Gilbert Young because television froze her there. Whitley Gilbert
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: is permanently young in those episodes. You can turn on
- 1:11:04Speaker 3: an old episode tomorrow and young Whitley Gilbert will be there.
- 1:11:08Speaker 3: Your memory of Jasmine Guy didn't age, but Jasmine Guy did.
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: And that's OK.
- 1:11:14Speaker 3: All praises due to God that the human being who
- 1:11:17Speaker 3: played Whitley Gilbert is still alive.
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: That's a blessing.
- 1:11:21Speaker 11: OK.
- 1:11:22Speaker 3: And we've created this ridiculous situation for women where they
- 1:11:26Speaker 3: can't win, where they can't win.
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: If a woman gets older, naturally, people say, Dan, what
- 1:11:31Speaker 3: happened to her? Okay, if she gets Botox, damn, why
- 1:11:34Speaker 3: does she do that to her face? If she gets
- 1:11:36Speaker 3: a facelift, then you say she should have just kept
- 1:11:38Speaker 3: it natural and aged gracefully.
- 1:11:39Speaker 2: What the hell do y'all want?
- 1:11:41Speaker 3: Because apparently to y'all, aging gracefully means getting older without
- 1:11:44Speaker 3: actually looking older.
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: Okay, that's not aging gracefully, all right? You want somebody
- 1:11:49Speaker 2: to be 64.
- 1:11:49Speaker 3: With a 34-year-old face and somehow accomplish it naturally?
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: How? OK, don't get me wrong.
- 1:11:57Speaker 3: Genetics do play a part. But some people need more
- 1:11:59Speaker 3: than prayer and shea butter. OK, at some point, gravity
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: is going to collect his debt. And, you know, this
- 1:12:04Speaker 3: isn't even me saying cosmetic surgery is wrong either. If
- 1:12:07Speaker 3: somebody wants Botox, get your Botox.
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: You want fillers? Get your fillers. That's your business. I
- 1:12:11Speaker 2: don't care.
- 1:12:12Speaker 3: The problem I have is we've convinced women that whatever
- 1:12:15Speaker 3: choice they make is the wrong one. And social media
- 1:12:18Speaker 3: has made it worse because we're comparing real human beings.
- 1:12:22Speaker 2: The filtered human beings. Humans are walking around looking.
- 1:12:24Speaker 3: At themselves through Facetune and Instagram filters and the perfect lighting. Makeup,
- 1:12:30Speaker 3: cosmetic procedures. Oh, AI, please forget about it. So many
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: AI enhanced images. We're seeing so much of that that
- 1:12:38Speaker 3: we're starting to forget what an actual human being looks like.
- 1:12:41Speaker 2: Human beings get lines. Human beings get wrinkles. Your hair changes,
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: face changes.
- 1:12:46Speaker 3: That's just called being alive. And that's why making fun
- 1:12:49Speaker 3: of somebody for aging is stupid to me. unless you
- 1:12:52Speaker 3: plan on dying young. Okay, that's the only alternative. There
- 1:12:56Speaker 3: are only.
- 1:12:56Speaker 2: Two ways this story goes.
- 1:12:59Speaker 3: You get older, or you don't get the opportunity to
- 1:13:02Speaker 3: get older. Okay, either grow old or die young.
- 1:13:05Speaker 2: That's it.
- 1:13:05Speaker 3: So when I see Jasmine, guys, At 64 years old,
- 1:13:08Speaker 3: still working, you know, still acting, still being Whitley Gilbert,
- 1:13:12Speaker 3: still here for people to celebrate 30 years after a
- 1:13:16Speaker 3: different world first became part of the culture. She got
- 1:13:19Speaker 3: her memoir coming out in February that my book in
- 1:13:21Speaker 3: print is publishing. I'm not looking at her thinking, damn,
- 1:13:23Speaker 3: she got old. I'm thinking, what a beautiful life she
- 1:13:26Speaker 3: has lived. OK, she's still alive. Get into it at
- 1:13:29Speaker 3: 64 and God willing. I will be too.
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: Okay. Some of y'all better pray you get enough wrinkles
- 1:13:35Speaker 2: for somebody to make fun of. Okay. You better pray
- 1:13:37Speaker 2: you get some gray hair. Okay. I hope you live
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: long enough to complain about your back hurting when it rains. Okay.
- 1:13:45Speaker 3: I hope in 2056, somebody looks at a picture of
- 1:13:48Speaker 3: me and says, damn, he got old because you know
- 1:13:50Speaker 3: what that means? I made it 30 more years. OK,
- 1:13:53Speaker 3: I don't understand why we humans spend the first half
- 1:13:55Speaker 3: of our lives praying for birthdays.
- 1:13:57Speaker 2: Right. You want to be 16. You want to be 21.
- 1:14:00Speaker 3: And then the second half of our lives, we pretend
- 1:14:02Speaker 3: birthdays are a problem.
- 1:14:03Speaker 5: Nope.
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: Nope. I want them all. OK.
- 1:14:06Speaker 3: Every birthday is confirmation that you're still in the game.
- 1:14:10Speaker 3: Jasmine Guy does not owe anybody the face they remember
- 1:14:14Speaker 3: from 1988. And before you make fun of somebody else's age,
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: you better check the date on your own birth certificate.
- 1:14:19Speaker 3: And remember, father time is undefeated. He's coming for all
- 1:14:23Speaker 3: of us. And getting old, being called old, it's not
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: an insult.
- 1:14:28Speaker 2: Okay?
- 1:14:28Speaker 3: Getting old is the blessing because everybody doesn't get to
- 1:14:32Speaker 3: do it.
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: Please give Remy Ma. Please let Remy Ma give everybody.
- 1:14:37Speaker 3: Shaming Jasmine Guy for doing whatever you human being on
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: this planet is doing, which is aging.
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: The biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw. Hee-haw.
- 1:14:45Speaker 5: You stupid mother f * * * er.
- 1:14:46Speaker 2: You dumb. I want them all.
- 1:14:49Speaker 5: Okay?
- 1:14:49Speaker 6: Okay.
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: I want them all. I feel you. I want to
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: be so old that I can't even blow out a
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: birthday cake. Yeah. Somebody got to do it for me.
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: I don't like the way they made her feel. It's
- 1:14:58Speaker 2: not cool. Makes no sense.
- 1:15:00Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 1:15:01Speaker 11: Makes no sense.
- 1:15:02Speaker 2: All right. Guess what?
- 1:15:03Speaker 12: What?
- 1:15:04Speaker 2: I'm going to hold it now. After doing that donkey.
- 1:15:07Speaker 2: How long was that? 10 minutes. Like 12 minutes. I'm
- 1:15:11Speaker 2: 12 minutes older than I was 12 minutes ago. Happy birthday.
- 1:15:13Speaker 2: You see what I'm saying?
- 1:15:14Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:15:16Speaker 6: That's true.
- 1:15:16Speaker 2: But anyway, yes, you're absolutely right. We should pray to
- 1:15:18Speaker 2: get over it.
- 1:15:18Speaker 5: Now, she had a damn BBL and, you know, her
- 1:15:22Speaker 5: face pushed back to the back of her damn head.
- 1:15:25Speaker 5: Then everybody had something to say about.
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: That, too.
- 1:15:29Speaker 5: But I just hate that, though.
- 1:15:30Speaker 2: It's like, yo, she's 67.
- 1:15:31Speaker 3: 64.
- 1:15:31Speaker 5: 64. Right.
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: The hell? What's going on? All right. Thank you for
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: that donkey of a day. I hate Jess. I'm sorry.
- 1:15:42Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:15:42Speaker 4: When we come back, Nevada Attorney General, Democratic nominee for
- 1:15:47Speaker 4: governor of Nevada will be joining us.
- 1:15:49Speaker 2: Aaron Ford. Aaron Ford.
- 1:15:51Speaker 3: Aaron.
- 1:15:51Speaker 2: All right, man. It's not Aaron.
- 1:15:53Speaker 6: It's Aaron.
- 1:15:53Speaker 12: Aaron.
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: Aaron Ford will be joining us. It's the Breakfast Club.
- 1:15:56Speaker 2: Good morning. Good morning, everybody.
- 1:15:57Speaker 4: It's DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
- 1:16:01Speaker 4: the Breakfast Club. Our sister, Miss Angela, rides with us today.
- 1:16:04Speaker 4: We got a special guest in the building.
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: And you better get his name right. He just gave
- 1:16:07Speaker 2: you a whole tutorial on how to say his name.
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: You just messed with me, but I had it flowing.
- 1:16:10Speaker 2: Now I can't remember. He's running for Nevada. No, you
- 1:16:12Speaker 2: better get that right, too. He did. I did Nevada.
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: Why don't you let him get to the intro? Ladies
- 1:16:17Speaker 2: and gentlemen, Aaron Ford.
- 1:16:20Speaker 11: Aaron Ford.
- 1:16:21Speaker 6: That's right.
- 1:16:21Speaker 2: Not Aaron. Aaron. It's spelled Aaron, but Aaron. That's right.
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: The 34th attorney. You actually need an attorney general.
- 1:16:26Speaker 19: Excuse me.
- 1:16:26Speaker 5: I was doing that right now. Just go ahead.
- 1:16:28Speaker 2: You stay excited.
- 1:16:30Speaker 17: He's the 34th attorney general of Nevada, and he is
- 1:16:34Speaker 17: the first black attorney general for that state legislator now
- 1:16:37Speaker 17: running for governor.
- 1:16:38Speaker 12: Okay.
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: Well, welcome, brother.
- 1:16:39Speaker 11: How you feeling?
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: Hey, I'm feeling good, man. Happy to be here. Good
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: to see everybody. All right. Why do you want to
- 1:16:43Speaker 2: be governor, man? You know, it's funny, right?
- 1:16:45Speaker 9: Some people thought it was a foregone conclusion I was
- 1:16:47Speaker 9: going to run, but I didn't make my mind up, frankly,
- 1:16:49Speaker 9: until after Trump won. You know, I knew, you know,
- 1:16:53Speaker 9: I talked to my wife, I talked to my family,
- 1:16:55Speaker 9: we prayed on it, thought about it, talked about it.
- 1:16:56Speaker 9: We just knew that we'd have a governor who wasn't
- 1:16:58Speaker 9: going to stand up to Trump, who wasn't going to
- 1:17:00Speaker 9: defend the badness from what I anticipated would be some
- 1:17:03Speaker 9: unlawful actions, some undermining of our ability to even exist
- 1:17:08Speaker 9: or survive, let alone thrive.
- 1:17:10Speaker 2: And, you know, unfortunately, I've been proven right.
- 1:17:12Speaker 9: Whether it is the tariffs that he didn't stand up to,
- 1:17:14Speaker 9: whether it's trying to get rid of the Department of Education,
- 1:17:18Speaker 9: whether it's been birthright citizenship. Our governor hasn't stood up,
- 1:17:23Speaker 9: and I knew I would need to. And so prayed
- 1:17:25Speaker 9: on it, thought about it, and.
- 1:17:26Speaker 2: Here we are.
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: I respect that answer, but I don't like it. And
- 1:17:28Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you why, because everybody says it.
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: Everybody says it's because of Trump. What is it about
- 1:17:34Speaker 3: your vision for Nevada that requires you to act?
- 1:17:37Speaker 2: Nevada. First, I'll get it right. It's Nevada. What is
- 1:17:40Speaker 2: it about it? Aaron Ford's vision. Aaron Ford. Attorney General Ford.
- 1:17:47Speaker 2: How about that? I'll take that. You can just call
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: me General.
- 1:17:50Speaker 3: What is it about Attorney General Ford's vision for Nevada
- 1:17:56Speaker 3: that requires you.
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: To have this job?
- 1:17:57Speaker 9: That's a different question, and I'm glad you asked me that.
- 1:17:59Speaker 9: So here's what I have learned talking to folks all
- 1:18:02Speaker 9: across the state.
- 1:18:03Speaker 2: They broke.
- 1:18:05Speaker 9: Stuff's too expensive right now they broke right um and
- 1:18:09Speaker 9: and whether it's housing whether it's health care whether it's
- 1:18:11Speaker 9: gas whether it's groceries whether it's our energy prices they
- 1:18:14Speaker 9: want somebody who's going to help them be able to
- 1:18:17Speaker 9: um pay for their lives and take care of themselves
- 1:18:19Speaker 9: and take care of their families look i'm like me
- 1:18:21Speaker 9: i'm in a sandwich generation i got older parents um
- 1:18:24Speaker 9: and i have you know, grown kids, but they sell
- 1:18:27Speaker 9: in my pocket.
- 1:18:28Speaker 2: You understand?
- 1:18:29Speaker 9: And so I know what they're going through. And this
- 1:18:32Speaker 9: is something that, frankly, the word is affordability. That's what
- 1:18:35Speaker 9: you hear all the time, Charlemagne. I didn't know what
- 1:18:37Speaker 9: that word meant when I was seven or eight years old,
- 1:18:39Speaker 9: but I know my parents couldn't.
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: Always afford food. You know what I'm saying?
- 1:18:42Speaker 9: I mean, I grew up eating stale candy bars for
- 1:18:44Speaker 9: dinner that my daddy found next to the dumpster behind
- 1:18:47Speaker 9: the grocery store he worked at, right? The grocery store
- 1:18:50Speaker 9: was throwing them away because they couldn't sell them because
- 1:18:51Speaker 9: they were stale. But the fours got to eat. So
- 1:18:54Speaker 9: my daddy bought all these stale candy bars. And to
- 1:18:56Speaker 9: this day, I keep a candy bar on my nightstand
- 1:18:58Speaker 9: at home.
- 1:18:59Speaker 2: From that day.
- 1:19:00Speaker 11: Score.
- 1:19:01Speaker 2: A score bar. S-K-O-R.
- 1:19:02Speaker 9: I keep it on my nightstand. I keep it on
- 1:19:04Speaker 9: my office desk at work. All my offices. It's a reminder.
- 1:19:06Speaker 9: First thing I see when I get up in the morning.
- 1:19:08Speaker 9: That's the last thing I see when I go to bed.
- 1:19:10Speaker 9: I think about it all throughout the day when I'm
- 1:19:11Speaker 9: at work. I'm reminded of what struggle feels like, what
- 1:19:14Speaker 9: it looks like, and who I'm fighting for. You know,
- 1:19:17Speaker 9: your boy went from eating stale candy bars to being
- 1:19:18Speaker 9: a single dad in college.
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: Right?
- 1:19:21Speaker 9: Welfare, living on Section 8 housing, Medicaid, food stamps. So,
- 1:19:26Speaker 9: you know, I'm not talking about what I heard, like
- 1:19:28Speaker 9: they say in church. I'm talking about what I know.
- 1:19:30Speaker 9: And that's why my message is resonating with folks in Nevada.
- 1:19:32Speaker 9: That's why we're going to win.
- 1:19:34Speaker 17: I want to ask you, you know, I'm talking about
- 1:19:37Speaker 17: the struggles that you've endured. Some of the struggle is
- 1:19:42Speaker 17: normally fought hard and won in solidarity. So there are
- 1:19:44Speaker 17: a lot of attorneys, attorneys general who have worked really
- 1:19:49Speaker 17: collectively and together to fight against some of the onslaught
- 1:19:52Speaker 17: of Trump administration's policies. You've done that with several black AGs.
- 1:19:58Speaker 17: But when you look at what's happening with governor's mansions
- 1:20:02Speaker 17: all over the country, it's just Westmore. So, of course,
- 1:20:05Speaker 17: Governor Moore, Maryland governor, he is now the chair of
- 1:20:08Speaker 17: the Democratic Governors Association. And recently, he said over the
- 1:20:12Speaker 17: weekend during the annual legislative conference for the Congressional Black
- 1:20:15Speaker 17: Caucus Foundation, he said, I'm looking forward to a gubernatorial
- 1:20:20Speaker 17: black caucus so we can come and be in fellowship
- 1:20:23Speaker 17: with you.
- 1:20:23Speaker 5: How important is that?
- 1:20:24Speaker 2: I think sometimes.
- 1:20:25Speaker 17: We do, and we talk about this all the time,
- 1:20:28Speaker 17: talk about the symbolism of the moment. But there's something
- 1:20:31Speaker 17: way more important about electing black governors that goes beyond
- 1:20:34Speaker 17: the symbolism.
- 1:20:35Speaker 2: Yeah, look, no question.
- 1:20:36Speaker 9: And I, like Wes, has been, you know, I've been
- 1:20:40Speaker 9: the only black person in a lot of my environments, right?
- 1:20:44Speaker 9: And I'm looking forward to, frankly, replicating what we did
- 1:20:46Speaker 9: in the AG space. When I was elected attorney general
- 1:20:48Speaker 9: and before I got elected, there was only one black
- 1:20:51Speaker 9: Democratic attorney general. It was Carl Racine out of D.C.
- 1:20:54Speaker 9: Carl Racine's work, when we were done in 2018, we
- 1:20:58Speaker 9: went from one to five black Democratic AGs. We had
- 1:21:02Speaker 9: a Democratic Black Caucus immediately, right? And Wes, the work
- 1:21:06Speaker 9: he's putting out right now, he has the ability to
- 1:21:08Speaker 9: go from one to several as well. And so it
- 1:21:11Speaker 9: is going to be a great opportunity for us to,
- 1:21:14Speaker 9: you know, obviously not only represent our states, but represent
- 1:21:17Speaker 9: our culture, represent who we are, represent the background, show
- 1:21:20Speaker 9: what it's like to be able to, you know, know,
- 1:21:23Speaker 9: manifest at this particular level.
- 1:21:24Speaker 2: And I'm looking forward to that.
- 1:21:25Speaker 5: But why does that matter in terms of like that representation?
- 1:21:28Speaker 17: So again, going beyond the symbolism of us being able
- 1:21:31Speaker 17: to see it, which is important for our kids, for
- 1:21:34Speaker 17: our communities to see ourselves represented.
- 1:21:36Speaker 5: But why does it matter?
- 1:21:38Speaker 9: Look, I think it matters for a number of reasons
- 1:21:39Speaker 9: and not the least of which is because I've raised
- 1:21:41Speaker 9: three black sons and a black nephew.
- 1:21:43Speaker 6: Right.
- 1:21:44Speaker 2: I come from eating stale candy bars and being a
- 1:21:46Speaker 2: single dad.
- 1:21:47Speaker 9: I come from tough times and tough neighborhoods. And my
- 1:21:51Speaker 9: sons have always been taught that they can be whatever
- 1:21:53Speaker 9: they want to be, irrespective of what the world would
- 1:21:57Speaker 9: expect of them or how they want to pigeonhole them.
- 1:21:59Speaker 9: And so I think it's a visual manifestation of opportunity
- 1:22:04Speaker 9: and the ability to accomplish. Look, I learned this when
- 1:22:06Speaker 9: I was working on my, this is funny, my PhD program.
- 1:22:09Speaker 9: There was a word I learned, efficacy, self-efficacy. This notion
- 1:22:13Speaker 9: of seeing somebody who looks like you doing something that
- 1:22:15Speaker 9: you want to do. And when you see that, it
- 1:22:18Speaker 9: makes you think you can actually do it as well.
- 1:22:20Speaker 9: And so, you know, I've had the ability to look
- 1:22:22Speaker 9: at a black attorney general and Carl Racine and see
- 1:22:24Speaker 9: myself doing it. I'm looking at Westmore. I can see
- 1:22:26Speaker 9: myself doing that. And I want others to be able
- 1:22:28Speaker 9: to look at us and see, yeah, I can do
- 1:22:31Speaker 9: that as well. And that's that's what's so important to
- 1:22:32Speaker 9: me about this.
- 1:22:33Speaker 17: I'm curious on this because this has overwhelmingly and disproportionately
- 1:22:37Speaker 17: impacted communities of color throughout the country. The data center issue.
- 1:22:42Speaker 17: You are a black man from Dallas running in Nevada.
- 1:22:47Speaker 17: The black population there is roughly 10 percent. Do you
- 1:22:51Speaker 17: have a targeted black agenda? Like so often our folks
- 1:22:55Speaker 17: are asked to wait until after election and then, well,
- 1:22:59Speaker 17: let's just wait for the second term. We saw that
- 1:23:01Speaker 17: happen with President Obama. How important is it to you
- 1:23:04Speaker 17: that black Nevadans know that you're not going to just be, again,
- 1:23:07Speaker 17: a symbolic figure, but a representational one with an agenda
- 1:23:11Speaker 17: that meets the demands they have?
- 1:23:12Speaker 9: I'm glad you asked. And my answer is similar to
- 1:23:14Speaker 9: what I said a minute ago. I can show you
- 1:23:16Speaker 9: better than I can tell you. I've been in office
- 1:23:18Speaker 9: now since 2012, and I have always demonstrated my desire
- 1:23:23Speaker 9: to ensure that all communities, including the African-American community, get
- 1:23:25Speaker 9: opportunities that are presented to them. I'll give you a
- 1:23:28Speaker 9: prime example. When we were bringing the Raider Stadium deal,
- 1:23:31Speaker 9: I was the minority leader in the state Senate. They
- 1:23:34Speaker 9: needed votes because they needed some of my votes because
- 1:23:37Speaker 9: it was more than just a half, you know, a
- 1:23:40Speaker 9: 50 percent plus one vote. And part of my negotiation
- 1:23:43Speaker 9: was that I speak in the community benefits plans. you
- 1:23:45Speaker 9: have to have the community benefits agreement associated with anything
- 1:23:48Speaker 9: coming out of this chamber. And that agreement is going
- 1:23:51Speaker 9: to have to include opportunities for minority owned businesses, black
- 1:23:54Speaker 9: owned businesses, women owned businesses, veteran owned businesses. And not
- 1:23:58Speaker 9: just at the, you know, operation stage at the design
- 1:24:01Speaker 9: stage and the construction stage. And so I initiated the
- 1:24:05Speaker 9: conversation and that type of conversation has occurred subsequent. You know,
- 1:24:11Speaker 9: when we talked about trying to, we try to bring a,
- 1:24:14Speaker 9: electric car shop called Faraday. You know, I reiterated that,
- 1:24:18Speaker 9: you know, if you're going to do it in North
- 1:24:19Speaker 9: Las Vegas, North Las Vegas has a lot of black folks.
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: I want them employed. Right.
- 1:24:23Speaker 9: And so, you know, I stand on that. And part
- 1:24:28Speaker 9: of it is because of my philosophy that the entirety
- 1:24:30Speaker 9: of the Nevada family.
- 1:24:31Speaker 2: Deserves to be represented, period.
- 1:24:33Speaker 9: I believe everybody from every background should have an opportunity
- 1:24:36Speaker 9: to succeed in our state.
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: And I'm going to stand on that when I'm governor
- 1:24:39Speaker 2: as well.
- 1:24:40Speaker 3: It's interesting, right, because we were just in Vegas over
- 1:24:43Speaker 3: the past weekend, and it feels to me like, you know,
- 1:24:46Speaker 3: this beautiful state that was built around gaming and tourism
- 1:24:52Speaker 3: is kind of changing a little bit.
- 1:24:53Speaker 2: I don't know if people are gambling like they used
- 1:24:56Speaker 2: to be. I don't know, right? I don't think people
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: got the money. Yeah, they don't have the money. That's right.
- 1:24:59Speaker 3: So when you got AI and technology reshaping the economy,
- 1:25:03Speaker 3: what does the state's next industry need to be?
- 1:25:06Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
- 1:25:07Speaker 9: Well, I think we need to be open to many
- 1:25:09Speaker 9: different industries. One of the ones in which I've said
- 1:25:11Speaker 9: I want to try to attract and diversify is the
- 1:25:13Speaker 9: financial industry. We're one of the largest metropolitan areas in
- 1:25:16Speaker 9: Las Vegas without a financial district. And I've already been
- 1:25:19Speaker 9: in conversation with some folks in the chamber organizations to
- 1:25:23Speaker 9: see what that looks like. I'm not trying to replicate
- 1:25:25Speaker 9: Wall Street, per se, but certainly an industry that can
- 1:25:31Speaker 9: chime in when we are existing like we are right now,
- 1:25:34Speaker 9: which is with a downsizing of tourism um, and, and
- 1:25:38Speaker 9: gaming numbers going down.
- 1:25:40Speaker 2: I do have, I know you, I know you got
- 1:25:41Speaker 2: to go.
- 1:25:41Speaker 4: I do have one question, you know, just reading some
- 1:25:43Speaker 4: of the, when I read Reddit and some of the
- 1:25:45Speaker 4: things when I, when I ask about you, brother, some
- 1:25:47Speaker 4: people would say, well, you know, you do a lot
- 1:25:48Speaker 4: for the community, meaning you saw a lot of these companies,
- 1:25:50Speaker 4: whether it was discord or social media companies for, you know,
- 1:25:53Speaker 4: kids being addictive, uh, whether it's fighting monopolies in the
- 1:25:56Speaker 4: city with ticket sales or it's, it's different targeting, deceptive lending.
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: People always say that's amazing, but how does that help Nevada?
- 1:26:04Speaker 11: Did I say it right?
- 1:26:05Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:26:05Speaker 2: How does that help Nevada?
- 1:26:07Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:26:07Speaker 2: So what would you say to those people?
- 1:26:08Speaker 9: Well, I say, I think in a few ways, let's
- 1:26:11Speaker 9: talk about protecting our kids in the first place, right?
- 1:26:13Speaker 9: That's actually, it makes me smile because that's, that's, that's
- 1:26:16Speaker 9: one of the most things, the things I'm most proud
- 1:26:18Speaker 9: of is this meta settlement that we just got. I
- 1:26:20Speaker 9: sued Facebook, Instagram, and messenger, I think three years ago,
- 1:26:23Speaker 9: maybe two years ago. And about a month ago, we
- 1:26:26Speaker 9: settled this case in a multi-state settlement, which is separate
- 1:26:28Speaker 9: and apart from my own lawsuit. And because of that work,
- 1:26:33Speaker 9: our kids' mental health is going to improve virtually overnight, right?
- 1:26:36Speaker 9: Because they're not going to be getting these pings during school.
- 1:26:40Speaker 9: They're going to be off the thing between 12 a.m.
- 1:26:43Speaker 9: and 6 a.m., right? They're getting rid of the filters
- 1:26:45Speaker 9: that are causing young girls to have body dysmorphia issues, right?
- 1:26:48Speaker 9: They're getting rid of the likes and the loves as defaults, right?
- 1:26:52Speaker 9: These are the types of things that we know because
- 1:26:54Speaker 9: we've done a study in our own state. Our university has.
- 1:26:57Speaker 9: University of Nevada has done a study, and it has
- 1:26:59Speaker 9: demonstrated that these things have bad mental health impacts on
- 1:27:03Speaker 9: our children. And there, there, there is no question that
- 1:27:07Speaker 9: there's a positive impact on those types of things.
- 1:27:10Speaker 2: I was in my state. I got a settlement with Roblox,
- 1:27:14Speaker 2: which is a, you know, a kid's. Oh, we know
- 1:27:16Speaker 2: what Roblox is. I got six kids. Okay.
- 1:27:18Speaker 9: Well, you would, you'd be happy to know then that
- 1:27:22Speaker 9: I have gotten a settlement with them. There's requiring them
- 1:27:24Speaker 9: to put in new requirements and protections to keep your
- 1:27:26Speaker 9: kids from having sexual predators approach them on Roblox. That's
- 1:27:31Speaker 9: my word.
- 1:27:31Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:27:32Speaker 9: That's what I was able to do. And it's through
- 1:27:36Speaker 9: working with other attorneys general to be clear, but also
- 1:27:38Speaker 9: being being unafraid of these big corporations who have a
- 1:27:42Speaker 9: lot of money, who might give their money to the
- 1:27:43Speaker 9: other team, to your point. But it's benefiting our children.
- 1:27:48Speaker 9: And I'm happy about that.
- 1:27:49Speaker 17: The one thing that I that I would say to
- 1:27:51Speaker 17: Envy's point is there is now running for governor in particular,
- 1:27:55Speaker 17: an intense focus that has to be placed on Nevada
- 1:27:58Speaker 17: as attorney general and attorney period. Oftentimes in the courtroom,
- 1:28:03Speaker 17: you have a closing argument. So if you were making
- 1:28:05Speaker 17: a closing argument to Nevadans. What would your closing argument
- 1:28:09Speaker 17: be for why you're the best person for this role
- 1:28:11Speaker 17: as governor?
- 1:28:12Speaker 2: No, thank you. Thank you for the opportunity.
- 1:28:13Speaker 9: Look, I just firmly believe that Nevadans deserve to have
- 1:28:17Speaker 9: a governor who's going to look out for the entire
- 1:28:18Speaker 9: Nevada family. And by that, I mean as broad as
- 1:28:21Speaker 9: you can think of it. You could have been here
- 1:28:23Speaker 9: for three generations or for three days. If you live
- 1:28:25Speaker 9: in Nevada, you're part of the Nevada family. You could
- 1:28:27Speaker 9: be married with two and a half kids or a
- 1:28:28Speaker 9: single parent with three kids. If you live in Nevada,
- 1:28:30Speaker 9: you're part of the Nevada family. Black, white, Latino, Asian,
- 1:28:33Speaker 9: Native American. If you live in Nevada, you're part of
- 1:28:35Speaker 9: the Nevada family. Gay or straight, if you live in Nevada,
- 1:28:37Speaker 9: you're part of the Nevada family. Democrat, Republican, Independent, you
- 1:28:40Speaker 9: deserve to have someone who's going to look out for you, period,
- 1:28:43Speaker 9: point blank. And I've demonstrated my ability to do that
- 1:28:47Speaker 9: as your senator, as your attorney general, and I'm looking
- 1:28:49Speaker 9: to take that fight for you.
- 1:28:51Speaker 2: Over to the governor's office. I hope I get that opportunity.
- 1:28:54Speaker 2: You'd be the first black governor. How significant would that
- 1:28:56Speaker 2: be to you? Very meaningful. And at the same time,
- 1:29:00Speaker 2: pretty pitiful. Attorney General hungry, man. His stomach has been
- 1:29:05Speaker 2: over here growling. Why are you calling me up, man?
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: I should have told you nothing. You didn't even hear
- 1:29:11Speaker 2: my stomach growling.
- 1:29:12Speaker 17: If that doggone Republican governor takes that tire thief, I'll
- 1:29:16Speaker 17: fight you.
- 1:29:16Speaker 2: I think we got a chocolate bar if he's that hungry.
- 1:29:19Speaker 2: All right, well, let's do it. Can I get a
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: stale score bar or something? We appreciate you. We wish
- 1:29:25Speaker 2: you the best of luck. Please visit my website, ford4nevada. com.

- 1:29:56Speaker 11: Talk to you by Top Dog Law on The Breakfast Club.
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: Talk to me, Top Dog Law.
- 1:30:02Speaker 6: All right, y'all.
- 1:30:02Speaker 17: So yesterday on the Netflix side of things, we talked
- 1:30:05Speaker 17: about the fact that there was a story about that
- 1:30:07Speaker 17: Jacquees was arrested down in Florida.
- 1:30:09Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
- 1:30:10Speaker 17: Now, at the time, all we knew was that he
- 1:30:12Speaker 17: was facing charges of alleged DUI, battery on an officer
- 1:30:16Speaker 17: and resisting arrest. without violence after being, well, without violence, right?
- 1:30:21Speaker 17: We didn't know what happened. Now there's been an update
- 1:30:23Speaker 17: and he has been released, but we found out this
- 1:30:26Speaker 17: is the police. So police are alleging that down in Florida,
- 1:30:29Speaker 17: he was arrested, Jacquees, a little bit before 8 a.m.
- 1:30:32Speaker 2: Last Sunday.
- 1:30:33Speaker 17: They say that they received a call for a person
- 1:30:34Speaker 17: that was passed out inside of their vehicle. Now police
- 1:30:37Speaker 17: say that when they walked up to the vehicle and
- 1:30:40Speaker 17: were trying to like, you know, help transport Jacquees to
- 1:30:42Speaker 17: the hospital, that he became combative is what they allege, right?
- 1:30:45Speaker 17: And they're saying that he was at an intersection of
- 1:30:47Speaker 17: some sort, passed out in the vehicle, allegedly.
- 1:30:50Speaker 19: And he was scheduled to appear in court. He did that.
