- 2:11Speaker 11: He is.
- 2:12Speaker 6: He's a kid pastor. His name is Luke Tillman.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Now, the thing I like about Luke Tillman, remember his mother,
- 2:16Speaker 2: Katrina called up and Katrina was talking to us about
- 2:19Speaker 2: Luke's book, finding God every day. And I was like, yo,
- 2:23Speaker 2: pull up, come to New York, come to breakfast club.

- 2:38Speaker 1: he's touched by the blood of Jesus. That's right.
- 2:40Speaker 6: Touched by the blood of Jesus, okay?
- 2:42Speaker 9: That is right.
- 2:43Speaker 4: How you feeling, Jess?
- 2:43Speaker 9: Like a heathen.
- 2:45Speaker 12: No, I'm not feeling like a heathen. I'm not, because
- 2:47Speaker 12: I listened to the sermon as soon as I landed yesterday.
- 2:49Speaker 12: I went to go get my hair done.
- 2:50Speaker 1: I feel good.
- 2:51Speaker 6: You didn't have to tell us you got your hair done.
- 2:53Speaker 6: We can see.

- 3:07Speaker 2: actually watched their doc this weekend because I was watching
- 3:09Speaker 2: the Jay-Z in 8, and then when it went off,
- 3:11Speaker 2: this came on.
- 3:12Speaker 1: And I was like, God damn it, it's Earth, Wind & Fire.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Tomorrow is May 21st. And Monday is September 21st.
- 3:16Speaker 13: Wow.
- 3:16Speaker 9: All right?

- 3:21Speaker 2: You ain't wake up this morning knowing it's September 21st,
- 3:23Speaker 2: wanting to hear Earth, Wind & Fire, September.
- 3:26Speaker 6: And I got to question every bit of your blackness,
- 3:28Speaker 6: God damn it.
- 3:28Speaker 1: Bro, this is the first time in 16 years we
- 3:30Speaker 1: ever played this on September 21st.
- 3:31Speaker 2: That's not true. That's a damn lie. I don't remember
- 3:33Speaker 2: playing this. Because you ain't black and you don't remember
- 3:35Speaker 2: nothing black. You're a liar and the truth ain't in you.
- 3:38Speaker 1: You're just a liar. I don't remember playing this on
- 3:39Speaker 1: September 21st.
- 3:40Speaker 5: You're just a liar and the truth is not in you.
- 3:41Speaker 5: That's a goddamn lie. But anyway, we are The Breakfast Club.
- 3:44Speaker 6: Good morning.
- 3:44Speaker 5: Let's get in some front page news. A lot of
- 3:48Speaker 5: football scores. A lot of football scores. All right, let
- 3:50Speaker 5: me get to them. Let me get to them. All right,
- 3:52Speaker 5: the Packers beat the Jets in overtime. Eagles beat the
- 3:54Speaker 5: Titans barely. Browns beat the Buccaneers. Panthers beat the Falcons.
- 3:58Speaker 5: Broncos beat the Jaguars. 49ers beat the Dolphins. Saints beat
- 4:01Speaker 5: the Ravens. Vikings beat the Bears. The Patriots beat the Steelers.
- 4:04Speaker 5: Raiders beat the Chargers. Cowboys nearly beat the Commanders.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Not anything.
- 4:08Speaker 5: They beat them 37-20. Seahawks beat the Cardinals 31-7. And
- 4:12Speaker 5: last night, the late game, 33-7.
- 4:14Speaker 1: 2.30, the Chiefs beat the Colts.
- 4:17Speaker 9: Now, Monday Night Football!
- 4:20Speaker 1: The Giants take on the Rams at 8.15. What's up, Mimi?
- 4:24Speaker 9: Blowout.
- 4:25Speaker 8: Nope.
- 4:25Speaker 1: We're going to blow them. We're blowing them out.
- 4:27Speaker 6: Dropping the clues bombs for the Rams.
- 4:28Speaker 1: We're blowing them out. Take that bomb back. The Giants
- 4:31Speaker 1: are winning.
- 4:31Speaker 6: Big blowout tonight.
- 4:32Speaker 4: What's up, Mimi?
- 4:33Speaker 13: Good morning, NBJ.
- 4:35Speaker 14: Charlamagne, how y'all doing this morning?
- 4:36Speaker 15: Doing good, girl.
- 4:37Speaker 6: Good morning, Mimi.
- 4:38Speaker 12: Good morning.
- 4:40Speaker 13: So Front Page News is sponsored by Morgan & Morgan,
- 4:42Speaker 13: America's largest law firm. This morning, we are starting at
- 4:45Speaker 13: the White House. They are actually turning away reporters from CNN, MSNOW,
- 4:51Speaker 13: and Political. So President Trump announced via social media that
- 4:54Speaker 13: he was banning the three news organizations, accusing them of
- 4:58Speaker 13: what he calls fake news.
- 4:59Speaker 14: Let's listen.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Because they're fake news. You get so tired of reading
- 5:05Speaker 1: and seeing fake news. And there may be others to
- 5:08Speaker 1: join them, and maybe they can get better and would
- 5:10Speaker 1: like to have them in.
- 5:11Speaker 16: But our country has to have honest news.
- 5:12Speaker 1: You know, you don't have a country unless you have,
- 5:14Speaker 1: as I say, borders, good voting, and you need fair
- 5:18Speaker 1: and free voting. And you know what you need? You
- 5:21Speaker 1: need a free press.
- 5:22Speaker 9: You need a fair press and an honest press.
- 5:25Speaker 2: You don't have a country when you have an authoritarian
- 5:27Speaker 2: regime suppressing the press. We do know freedom of the
- 5:30Speaker 2: press is one of the first institutional safeguards that gets
- 5:34Speaker 2: targeted or dismantled during a transition toward an authoritarian regime, right?
- 5:39Speaker 6: We do know that, right?
- 5:41Speaker 14: Very, very true.
- 5:42Speaker 13: And over the weekend, the reporters from all three of
- 5:45Speaker 13: those networks, they showed up for work, but they couldn't
- 5:47Speaker 13: get in. MS Now reporter Kayla Gardner, she says that
- 5:52Speaker 13: she made it through the first checkpoints. But then when
- 5:55Speaker 13: she tried to scan her badge to get through the
- 5:57Speaker 13: final checkpoint, it didn't work.
- 5:59Speaker 14: Let's listen to that.
- 6:00Speaker 17: I attempted to scan my badge, which we have to
- 6:03Speaker 17: do and able to get into the White House grounds.
- 6:06Speaker 12: It did not work.
- 6:07Speaker 17: There was a red beeping light. And so the officer
- 6:09Speaker 17: asked me to hand over my badge. He said that
- 6:12Speaker 17: it was disabled. I asked why I was not able
- 6:15Speaker 17: to get inside. He said it was above him.
- 6:19Speaker 13: Yeah, so CNN and political reporters, they were also turned
- 6:23Speaker 13: away and had their credentials taken. All three news organizations,
- 6:28Speaker 13: they are pushing back and say that they will take
- 6:30Speaker 13: legal action. A Correspondents Association is also calling for their
- 6:35Speaker 13: access to be restored. But we saw a similar fight
- 6:38Speaker 13: with the Associated Press just last year. A judge ordered
- 6:42Speaker 13: its access restored, but that ruling is now tied up
- 6:46Speaker 13: in the Court of Appeals. So probably a similar fight
- 6:50Speaker 13: for these three news organizations ahead of them as well.
- 6:53Speaker 2: This is how I know we're no longer a serious
- 6:57Speaker 2: country because, you know, last week folks was in an uproar.
- 7:00Speaker 2: over Robert Kraft suppressing Macklemore's free speech, okay?
- 7:03Speaker 6: But where is the smoke for this?
- 7:04Speaker 2: Like, the president of the United States of America is
- 7:06Speaker 2: wiping his ass with the First Amendment right now, yo. Like,
- 7:10Speaker 2: if you know anything about history a little bit, you
- 7:14Speaker 2: know one of the first things the authoritarian regime goes
- 7:17Speaker 2: after is the press. So you look at this and
- 7:21Speaker 2: you look at what they're trying to do with the midterms,
- 7:23Speaker 2: it's like, do we even have a democracy anymore?
- 7:26Speaker 6: Does anybody care?
- 7:27Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 7:28Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 7:29Speaker 13: Those are all good questions. And now to an update
- 7:32Speaker 13: with the war in Iran, which is spreading. So over
- 7:35Speaker 13: the weekend, Iran-backed Houthi rebels, they launched an attack towards
- 7:38Speaker 13: Saudi Arabia's capital. And President Trump and Iran, they are
- 7:42Speaker 13: now trading threats. Trump says that if Iran needs to
- 7:46Speaker 13: make a deal and if They do not.
- 7:50Speaker 14: We will hit back.
- 7:51Speaker 13: Iran is still blocking most ships from going through the
- 7:53Speaker 13: Strait of Hormuz. And a top Iranian official says the
- 7:57Speaker 13: Strait will stay closed until President Trump and Prime Minister
- 8:00Speaker 13: Netanyahu are out of power. And so what does all
- 8:04Speaker 13: of this mean for you? Well, it already means that
- 8:06Speaker 13: you are paying those higher prices at the pump. So
- 8:09Speaker 13: the national average for regular is.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Now at $ 4.
- 8:11Speaker 7: 48 a.
- 8:14Speaker 13: That's about 16 cents in just the last week and
- 8:17Speaker 13: 40 cents in just one month. Let's listen to some
- 8:21Speaker 13: people who are feeling the pain at the pump.
- 8:23Speaker 14: I'm a teacher, so I don't make a lot of money.
- 8:26Speaker 14: You have to make a decision on gas, food, the basics.
- 8:31Speaker 1: We have been subject to gas prices gouging our pockets.
- 8:35Speaker 1: I'm my heart.
- 8:36Speaker 9: Beating right now just because I'm in 419 just for
- 8:40Speaker 9: regular gas.
- 8:41Speaker 4: You might as well put us in California.
- 8:43Speaker 6: I put a.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Whole $ 30.
- 8:45Speaker 9: A gallon in a V8.
- 8:46Speaker 4: I'm talking about a quarter of a tank.
- 8:48Speaker 5: So you telling me I got to put a whole
- 8:50Speaker 5: $ 80 in there now?
- 8:51Speaker 9: $ 90?
- 8:52Speaker 1: $ 90? That's going to get him halfway.
- 8:55Speaker 18: I know.
- 8:55Speaker 1: Say it. It's ridiculous.
- 8:58Speaker 14: Yeah, it's very ridiculous.
- 9:00Speaker 13: The Pentagon now estimates the war has cost taxpayers $ 45 billion.
- 9:06Speaker 13: And with just 43 days into the midterms, voters are
- 9:09Speaker 13: increasingly frustrated with the economy. A new Fox News poll,
- 9:14Speaker 13: it says that 63% of registered voters say the Trump
- 9:18Speaker 13: administration has made the economy worse.
- 9:21Speaker 2: So, yeah, there's going to be something extremely stupid that
- 9:24Speaker 2: happens in Iran before the midterms. OK, Donald Trump is
- 9:27Speaker 2: going to escalate the situation in Iran right before the midterms.
- 9:30Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, we're not going to have
- 9:31Speaker 1: a normal election.
- 9:33Speaker 2: There will be a huge disruption and it's going to
- 9:35Speaker 2: be centered around this Iran war.
- 9:37Speaker 6: If ever you didn't want to have if you didn't want.
- 9:39Speaker 1: A president to have the nuclear code just right now.
- 9:42Speaker 6: All right.
- 9:43Speaker 13: Speaking of just centered around the Iran war. World leaders
- 9:47Speaker 13: are going to gather in New York this week for
- 9:48Speaker 13: the United Nations General Assembly. President Trump is expected to
- 9:52Speaker 13: speak tomorrow, and they are expected to speak on the
- 9:55Speaker 13: war in Iran with that being a major focus. So
- 9:58Speaker 13: we may kind of learn what's happening. more tomorrow after
- 10:01Speaker 13: that speech. So we'll continue to watch that.
- 10:03Speaker 2: He told us this weekend, didn't somebody say this weekend
- 10:05Speaker 2: that he asked the question, you know, it's not a
- 10:07Speaker 2: matter of when, it's if I should blow them up
- 10:09Speaker 2: or something like that?
- 10:10Speaker 14: He did say that.
- 10:11Speaker 6: I don't know if that was the exact quote, but
- 10:12Speaker 6: it was something around that.
- 10:14Speaker 14: But it was very similar to that. Absolutely, Charlotte, it was.
- 10:17Speaker 5: Well, he's going to be in New York City today, too,
- 10:18Speaker 5: by the way. He's going to be here at 4 o'clock.
- 10:20Speaker 5: He's meeting with Mayor Mamdani. So he'll be in the
- 10:22Speaker 5: city around that time. Get out, because there's going to
- 10:25Speaker 5: be a lot of traffic, a lot of Secret Service.
- 10:27Speaker 1: It's going to be crazy.
- 10:28Speaker 12: When I walked up, security was like, you know, the
- 10:29Speaker 12: diplomats are in town.
- 10:30Speaker 10: I was like, oh, my God.
- 10:31Speaker 12: Like, they performing?
- 10:32Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 10:33Speaker 9: Whole time. All right.
- 10:34Speaker 1: That's what y'all talking about? All right, man.
- 10:37Speaker 10: Donald Trump, the.
- 10:38Speaker 2: Exact quote to me was, my question is, if and
- 10:40Speaker 2: when do I blow the entire nation up?
- 10:42Speaker 1: Jesus Christ.
- 10:42Speaker 14: There it is. There it is.

- 11:35Speaker 7: I'm a trucker.
- 11:37Speaker 19: And I called up here before.
- 11:38Speaker 20: I'm with MRV Enterprises.
- 11:39Speaker 19: Me and my wife just started a black-owned trucking business.
- 11:43Speaker 19: But now we're paying $ 400 at the pump.
- 11:46Speaker 1: Damn. That's crazy.
- 11:47Speaker 19: $ 400 at the pump. And the market is crazy because
- 11:51Speaker 19: right now I'm taking a load for $ 700 up to
- 11:54Speaker 19: Memphis from Atlanta, and I paid $ 400 at the pump.
- 11:58Speaker 21: So what am I making?
- 12:00Speaker 1: Damn.
- 12:01Speaker 5: That's what a lot of truckers— I don't know where I
- 12:02Speaker 5: was this weekend. I was speaking to a truck driver,
- 12:04Speaker 5: and he was saying that most of the loads, he's
- 12:07Speaker 5: really just paying off gas. He's really just doing it
- 12:09Speaker 5: for really just crumbs at this point.
- 12:11Speaker 11: Yeah.

- 12:15Speaker 19: just get a driver and get another job, man. It's
- 12:18Speaker 19: getting crazy out here.
- 12:19Speaker 12: I heard a lot of people selling their trucks, like

- 12:35Speaker 1: Same to you, bro. Appreciate you, brother. Hello, who's this?
- 12:38Speaker 22: Yes, how you doing, DJ Envy? This is Ken from
- 12:40Speaker 22: South Carolina.
- 12:41Speaker 1: What's up, Ken? Good morning.
- 12:42Speaker 11: Good, sir.
- 12:44Speaker 22: Love your show. I think this is going to come
- 12:46Speaker 22: down to the diesel fuel. It's not as high in
- 12:48Speaker 22: South Carolina like it is in California. And Iran is
- 12:51Speaker 22: doing some crazy stuff. And I think when diesel fuel
- 12:55Speaker 22: runs out or gets a little bit more expensive, a
- 12:58Speaker 22: lot of stuff is going to stop. And Charlemagne could
- 13:00Speaker 22: be right. He might be losing his mind before the
- 13:03Speaker 22: midterms election gets here.
- 13:04Speaker 6: Oh, I know I'm right.
- 13:06Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now that he's going to escalate
- 13:09Speaker 2: things in Iran because he's going to use that to
- 13:12Speaker 2: disrupt the midterms in some way, shape, or form, or
- 13:14Speaker 2: maybe even to stop the midterms altogether.
- 13:16Speaker 6: He's going to do something extremely stupid.
- 13:18Speaker 1: Hello, who's this?
- 13:19Speaker 11: This is Martin from Savasota, Florida. What's good?
- 13:22Speaker 1: Martin, what's up? Good morning, man. Get it off your chest, brother.
- 13:24Speaker 11: I was just talking about, like, I'm a Lyft driver
- 13:27Speaker 11: down here in Sarasota. It's true, man.
- 13:28Speaker 1: It's gas.
- 13:29Speaker 23: I was just working up in Jersey, right? I'm an
- 13:31Speaker 23: electrician up there. And then I live down in Florida.
- 13:34Speaker 23: That's why I get away because it's so expensive. I
- 13:36Speaker 23: moved out of Jersey. It was just too much money.
- 13:38Speaker 23: I had mortgages up there. I had to sell all
- 13:40Speaker 23: three of my houses. I got flooded out.
- 13:42Speaker 11: I said, man, I might as well just move to Florida.
- 13:44Speaker 11: I came down here. And it's good. It's just that
- 13:47Speaker 11: it's true. I mean, I don't get, this is the
- 13:49Speaker 11: problem that we have. And a lot of people are
- 13:51Speaker 11: not voting because they don't want to go vote.
- 13:54Speaker 7: I was wondering if everybody that got.
- 13:55Speaker 23: Bread, they should offer them incentives and start getting them
- 13:57Speaker 23: to come vote. Because if they don't do this, it's
- 14:00Speaker 23: really going to turn out crazy for a lot of people.
- 14:01Speaker 23: And a lot of people don't understand how worse.
- 14:03Speaker 7: It's going to get for everybody.
- 14:04Speaker 11: I really think that.
- 14:05Speaker 23: And I think that, you know, us being people that
- 14:10Speaker 23: are responsible enough to understand the difference, that we could
- 14:13Speaker 23: come up with some type of way to get these
- 14:15Speaker 23: people to come out because they just scared to come
- 14:17Speaker 23: out to vote like you know people just don't understand
- 14:20Speaker 23: about what's going on they just live life like it's
- 14:23Speaker 23: one day at a time and then when it happens
- 14:24Speaker 23: they realize it's already too late yeah that's the problem
- 14:27Speaker 23: they're having like the food stamps and everything it's like.
- 14:29Speaker 2: Crazy yeah i don't think people are afraid to go
- 14:32Speaker 2: vote i just think that people felt like you know
- 14:34Speaker 2: voting wasn't having you know the consequence on their life
- 14:37Speaker 2: that they wanted to but i think that they see
- 14:39Speaker 2: not voting is definitely having the consequences on their life
- 14:42Speaker 2: that they don't want to right now.
- 14:43Speaker 23: And it's funny how the Trump supporters are all supporting him.
- 14:46Speaker 23: Now they're all doubling back on that bread because I
- 14:48Speaker 23: know they're going through the same thing.
- 14:50Speaker 1: We're going through. Are they quiet?
- 14:51Speaker 23: Yeah, they ain't saying nothing. And then they let an
- 14:53Speaker 23: old boy do whatever he's doing. This eventually is going
- 14:55Speaker 23: to happen to him. And the only reason why that
- 14:57Speaker 23: boy is in office is because he knows he didn't
- 14:59Speaker 23: pass his grad. He didn't pass school first of all.
- 15:01Speaker 23: He didn't even get his high school diploma.
- 15:04Speaker 11: His sister took it. And on top of that, everybody
- 15:06Speaker 11: will understand everything. It's true what you say.
- 15:09Speaker 23: He's about to start conflict.
- 15:10Speaker 11: Just throw everything off.
- 15:12Speaker 1: That's what he's about to do.
- 15:13Speaker 2: The conflict is already happening. He's going to escalate it.
- 15:16Speaker 2: And this is the thing that bothers me the most about...
- 15:18Speaker 2: And he got the codes. He definitely got the nuclear code.
- 15:22Speaker 2: We don't pay attention to nothing because everything happens so fast.
- 15:26Speaker 2: But we forget last August, President Trump sat in there
- 15:29Speaker 2: with President Zelensky and he was like, so you say
- 15:32Speaker 2: during the war you can't have elections. So let me
- 15:34Speaker 2: just say three and a half years from now. So
- 15:36Speaker 2: you mean if we happen to be in a war
- 15:37Speaker 2: with somebody, no more elections. Oh, that's good. He ain't
- 15:40Speaker 2: even waiting three and a half years. We're in a
- 15:42Speaker 2: war right now with Iran.
- 15:43Speaker 1: Right before the midterm. Get it off your chest.

- 22:18Speaker 2: Because it's just like.
- 22:21Speaker 14: I just got this confidence.
- 22:22Speaker 24: I got this new, I got a new attitude.
- 22:25Speaker 12: But when are you going to have time to like
- 22:28Speaker 12: sit down and chill, take a vacation? I did all summer.
- 22:31Speaker 24: Girl, I was outside all summer.
- 22:33Speaker 10: But you was working. You had the Old Navy campaign.
- 22:35Speaker 14: Yeah, but I was going outside.
- 22:37Speaker 2: She is in her bag right now yeah absolutely I'm
- 22:40Speaker 2: glad that she's not waiting to put out music did
- 22:42Speaker 2: she get all she can out of Am I the
- 22:44Speaker 2: Drama though because I'm trying to think how many singles
- 22:46Speaker 2: came off that I remember Bodega Batty.
- 22:48Speaker 1: Like what four of them What are they for?
- 22:50Speaker 12: Yeah, because there's one with Kalani.
- 22:51Speaker 1: Safe with Kalani.
- 22:53Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 22:54Speaker 10: The A-ha and then Outside.
- 22:56Speaker 6: Imaginary Players.
- 22:57Speaker 1: A-ha's not on the album. No. A-ha's new. A-ha's new.
- 23:01Speaker 9: A-ha's new.
- 23:02Speaker 1: Imaginary Players.
- 23:03Speaker 24: And then the one that she did with.
- 23:05Speaker 6: Pretty and Petty.
- 23:06Speaker 24: Pretty and Petty. Definitely got her run for her money
- 23:09Speaker 24: out of that one.
- 23:10Speaker 7: She did.
- 23:10Speaker 12: She got four of them because Outside. Outside is on
- 23:12Speaker 12: the album, right? So that's about four singles from the album.
- 23:16Speaker 2: And for the debate we was having last week, when
- 23:19Speaker 2: we were talking about artists, female artists with timeless music.
- 23:23Speaker 6: Cardi got timeless music.
- 23:24Speaker 1: When you see her at the iHeart Festival performing them records, like,
- 23:27Speaker 1: Bodak Yellow still hitting.
- 23:29Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 23:29Speaker 24: That's crazy in the arena. Whole crowd.
- 23:31Speaker 1: You see what I'm saying?
- 23:32Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 23:33Speaker 1: Salute to Barney.
- 23:33Speaker 24: And I'm actually, though, even with that, I'm excited, too,
- 23:35Speaker 24: because remember before she dropped this last album, she was
- 23:38Speaker 24: having a hard time getting the courage to put the
- 23:40Speaker 24: music out, and now she's just throwing out singles and
- 23:43Speaker 24: letting us see how we feel about it.
- 23:44Speaker 1: I think Barney likes to be outside, too. She likes
- 23:46Speaker 1: to be outside.
- 23:47Speaker 5: She went to the club that night. She was outside
- 23:49Speaker 5: in front of the T-Mobile Arena and the music festival.
- 23:50Speaker 24: She threw a party, remember, when she became diamond. She
- 23:52Speaker 24: was just throwing parties all summer.
- 23:54Speaker 12: And then one thing about her, even after she had
- 23:56Speaker 12: a baby, she does not slow down.
- 23:58Speaker 11: No.
- 23:58Speaker 13: Mm-mm.

- 24:06Speaker 1: Absolutely.
- 24:08Speaker 24: We also, backstage, we were live on Breakfast Club's Twitch, TikTok,
- 24:12Speaker 24: and I believe we were also live on our YouTube
- 24:13Speaker 24: as well, too, The Breakfast Club AM. So we were
- 24:16Speaker 24: doing the content and we ran into Raven Simone.
- 24:18Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 24:19Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 24:19Speaker 24: We were so excited. So we talked to Raven a bit.
- 24:23Speaker 24: We talked about a few things. We talked to her
- 24:24Speaker 24: about inspiring black women through her characters on TV. Let's
- 24:28Speaker 24: take a listen to Raven on getting credit at an
- 24:30Speaker 24: older age.
- 24:32Speaker 3: When I was at the height of that. So Raven
- 24:34Speaker 3: and doing all of that stuff, there was no social media.
- 24:36Speaker 14: So I didn't get the feedback.
- 24:38Speaker 3: And then after I kind of disappeared, I did my
- 24:40Speaker 3: own thing. So now at 40, I finished that show
- 24:42Speaker 3: in my 20s. Like at 18, actually, I finished. So
- 24:46Speaker 3: at 40, I'm hearing it now.
- 24:48Speaker 14: So you have to, like, I've been.
- 24:50Speaker 3: But it feels great to know that it's Brazilians, black people,
- 24:56Speaker 3: South Africans, all kind of.
- 24:59Speaker 24: I think it's also Chinese.
- 25:00Speaker 3: Like, it's in so many languages to be able to
- 25:03Speaker 3: have so many different kinds of women and people come
- 25:06Speaker 3: and say thank you for that show. It reminded me
- 25:08Speaker 3: of me or.
- 25:09Speaker 13: Family, so.
- 25:10Speaker 3: from every color, but including black, obviously.
- 25:13Speaker 1: Obviously.
- 25:14Speaker 12: Obviously.
- 25:15Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 25:16Speaker 1: I love her so much.
- 25:16Speaker 6: Did y'all say she was green or something?
- 25:17Speaker 1: She said.
- 25:18Speaker 24: I never got her green.
- 25:19Speaker 1: Did somebody say she was green?
- 25:20Speaker 6: What happened about green?
- 25:21Speaker 24: She was in an interview and they asked her about
- 25:23Speaker 24: inspiring black women and asked her about Raven's character being
- 25:26Speaker 24: that girl for the black girls and she was like, well,
- 25:28Speaker 24: remove color. What if she was green?
- 25:30Speaker 6: She'd be the Incredible Hulk's daughter.
- 25:32Speaker 12: I know that's right.
- 25:32Speaker 10: I know it pissed people off.
- 25:33Speaker 1: I thought about that. It pissed people off.
- 25:36Speaker 24: That green commas did. And people were kind of, it
- 25:39Speaker 24: was like people wanted us to talk to her about
- 25:40Speaker 24: it in that moment. But I was just so excited
- 25:42Speaker 24: to see Ray Dart.
- 25:43Speaker 1: I've never seen y'all fan out like that ever.
- 25:45Speaker 5: There's been many people that came up here.
- 25:48Speaker 1: But when y'all seen Raven, oh my gosh.
- 25:49Speaker 12: You don't understand.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Like singing the cheetah girl.
- 25:51Speaker 9: Charlotte, you ain't see it.
- 25:52Speaker 1: They started doing dances and singing. I ain't see it.
- 25:55Speaker 1: I saw the video just like everybody else.
- 25:56Speaker 9: Oh, you see the video.
- 25:56Speaker 4: I was there.
- 25:57Speaker 24: He definitely kept moving.
- 25:59Speaker 7: And called her bruh.
- 26:00Speaker 1: He was like, that's what you do. You say, what's up, bruh?
- 26:02Speaker 1: That's a strong ass dad.
- 26:04Speaker 2: It was a strong ass dad.
- 26:06Speaker 1: That's a strong dad. She hit it. She brought it in.
- 26:09Speaker 1: But you caught on your stomach voice.
- 26:11Speaker 12: I'm like, why would you do that? Listen, I show
- 26:14Speaker 12: all of us the respect they deserve. Anyway, what if
- 26:16Speaker 12: she don't even identify as a stud? Anyway, I met
- 26:19Speaker 12: her wife, too.
- 26:20Speaker 1: Her wife was there as well.
- 26:20Speaker 24: And y'all talked about the collard greens.
- 26:22Speaker 9: Amazing.
- 26:22Speaker 12: Yes, because I did not like why her wife, I mean,
- 26:24Speaker 12: I didn't like that her wife got all this flack
- 26:26Speaker 12: behind seasoning the collard greens with ham hocks. I thought
- 26:29Speaker 12: we all, well, not we all, but I thought a
- 26:31Speaker 12: lot of people used pork to season the greens.
- 26:33Speaker 6: Oh, no, we do turkey now.
- 26:34Speaker 1: A lot of people do. That's what I, we got
- 26:35Speaker 1: the clip.
- 26:36Speaker 24: A lot of people do turkey now, but growing up,
- 26:38Speaker 24: we got the clip. Let's take a listen to Raven
- 26:40Speaker 24: and Jess on the collard greens.
- 26:41Speaker 11: My bad.
- 26:42Speaker 24: What'd she say about the greens?
- 26:44Speaker 12: She used to make vegan collard greens.
- 26:45Speaker 24: Yeah, she used to make vegan collard greens. What is
- 26:47Speaker 24: vegan collard greens? I don't even know what that means.
- 26:48Speaker 24: Let me tell you that. That means no meat? I'm
- 26:50Speaker 24: going to tell you.
- 26:50Speaker 14: Yes, but let me tell you how you do it.
- 26:52Speaker 3: You saute your onions and mushrooms until you can't anymore.
- 26:56Speaker 12: The flavor.
- 26:58Speaker 9: Okay.
- 26:58Speaker 1: And you still do the.
- 26:59Speaker 3: Vinegar and a little bit of sugar, and you still
- 27:01Speaker 3: cook it down.
- 27:01Speaker 12: That ain't nothing like a turkey neck, though.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Ain't nothing like a ham hock. A ham hock?
- 27:04Speaker 12: Listen, I'm a ham hock girl.
- 27:06Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 27:07Speaker 1: It's just as good.
- 27:08Speaker 12: I'm a ham hock girl.
- 27:09Speaker 1: I don't want no onion collard greens.
- 27:11Speaker 24: No, I think she said her wife uses ham hocks, right?
- 27:14Speaker 12: Yes, her wife uses ham hocks in the collars.
- 27:16Speaker 1: I was like, why is she? I mean, I know
- 27:17Speaker 1: pork is white meat, but why are you comparing your
- 27:19Speaker 1: wife to ham hocks? No, stupid. Why does she walk
- 27:23Speaker 1: in by people?
- 27:24Speaker 6: I don't want to even participate in conversations.
- 27:25Speaker 5: She said her wife set that all up for her.
- 27:27Speaker 5: She said her wife knew she was a BTS fan.
- 27:29Speaker 5: She wanted to see BTS.
- 27:30Speaker 1: I love that.
- 27:30Speaker 4: That's how she was there.

- 27:39Speaker 24: a nosebleed, she said.
- 27:40Speaker 25: Woo!

- 29:44Speaker 14: Come on, man.
- 29:46Speaker 13: This happened, yeah, at Hutchinson Funeral Home on East 7
- 29:50Speaker 13: Mile in Detroit. The children of 61-year-old Kimberly Moore said
- 29:54Speaker 13: they arrived for the viewing, but when the casket opened,
- 29:58Speaker 13: they immediately knew something was wrong.
- 30:00Speaker 14: Let's listen.
- 30:01Speaker 18: We get here. It's not my mama in the casket.
- 30:04Speaker 18: This woman got on my mama's dress, wig, everything. It's
- 30:08Speaker 18: not my mother's in there. They didn't put the body up,
- 30:11Speaker 18: so we came earlier. They tried to show us another lady.
- 30:15Speaker 18: They opened the casket. It's not hers.
- 30:17Speaker 24: I said, where is my mama? So where is my mama?
- 30:19Speaker 24: He said, oh, it's upstairs.
- 30:21Speaker 1: She upstairs.
- 30:22Speaker 24: You just told, and then my cousin said, Bianca, they
- 30:24Speaker 24: just told us we.
- 30:25Speaker 9: Didn't have her.
- 30:27Speaker 1: Now she here?
- 30:28Speaker 4: Where is my mama?
- 30:29Speaker 1: A lot of people love traumatizing folks.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Like, that funeral home knew that wasn't that woman in
- 30:34Speaker 2: that casket and still tried to get that off on
- 30:37Speaker 2: the family as if the family don't know who they
- 30:39Speaker 2: mom is.
- 30:39Speaker 1: Like, yo, what? You know what I'm saying? Yo, what?
- 30:43Speaker 1: You can't get that order wrong. It's not an order
- 30:45Speaker 1: you can get wrong.
- 30:46Speaker 15: No.
- 30:46Speaker 10: They took her wig, her dress.
- 30:48Speaker 7: Her dress.
- 30:49Speaker 9: Everything.
- 30:50Speaker 6: This is insanity.
- 30:51Speaker 12: It's horrible.
- 30:52Speaker 1: I might need to come to the front of the congregation.
- 30:53Speaker 23: Yeah, man.
- 30:54Speaker 1: That is true.
- 30:55Speaker 9: Mm-mm.
- 30:56Speaker 12: And then it got even worse.
- 30:57Speaker 13: So the family says that they were told that their
- 30:59Speaker 13: mother had been cremated by mistake.
- 31:01Speaker 26: Oh, my God.
- 31:02Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 31:03Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 31:04Speaker 14: And so as.
- 31:05Speaker 13: Word spread, more and more family members started showing up
- 31:08Speaker 13: at the funeral home. Of course, they were upset. The
- 31:10Speaker 13: police were called. Officers were seen blocking the entrance. The family,
- 31:14Speaker 13: of course, is now demanding answers. They're also trying to
- 31:18Speaker 13: find the family of the woman who was in the casket.
- 31:21Speaker 13: Police are investigating, and the funeral home says they know
- 31:24Speaker 13: that there's a problem, and they're working to figure out
- 31:27Speaker 13: exactly what happened.
- 31:28Speaker 14: I think we have some sound from the funeral home.
- 31:30Speaker 27: We know that there was an issue. We know there's
- 31:34Speaker 27: a problem, and we want to make it whole. We
- 31:35Speaker 27: want to make the family feel comfortable with their loved
- 31:39Speaker 27: one and make sure that we have some conclusion with this.
- 31:42Speaker 1: Salute to the Moore family in Detroit, man.
- 31:44Speaker 2: I'm glad that y'all didn't tear that funeral home up
- 31:46Speaker 2: and y'all had every right to. The Hutchinson funeral home
- 31:50Speaker 2: on East 7th Mile in Detroit.
- 31:51Speaker 9: That was horrible.
- 31:52Speaker 1: How do you make that whole? Yeah, we don't make
- 31:53Speaker 1: it whole.
- 31:54Speaker 13: How?
- 31:54Speaker 1: You can't.
- 31:55Speaker 6: That's a funeral.
- 31:56Speaker 2: You only get one shot at a funeral.
- 31:58Speaker 9: That's right.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Okay, you already cremated my mama's body.
- 32:01Speaker 12: That's insane.
- 32:01Speaker 1: And by the way, who is the woman that they
- 32:03Speaker 1: was going to bury?
- 32:04Speaker 7: Exactly.
- 32:04Speaker 1: Where her family at now? And does she have family?
- 32:06Speaker 12: Because you know, a lot of times when people, some
- 32:08Speaker 12: of these people die, they don't have family, they end
- 32:10Speaker 12: up Just like being at the morgue.
- 32:12Speaker 5: They probably cremated the wrong person. So that person probably
- 32:15Speaker 5: gave the ashes away already.
- 32:16Speaker 12: And then so they put a body in place and
- 32:19Speaker 12: try to act like.
- 32:20Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
- 32:22Speaker 6: Y'all just getting all this wrong like a fast food restaurant.
- 32:24Speaker 9: That's crazy.
- 32:25Speaker 12: They should have locked that damn casket so that family
- 32:27Speaker 12: wasn't able to see. That's crazy.
- 32:29Speaker 1: That's insane.
- 32:31Speaker 14: It's very, very crazy.
- 32:33Speaker 13: And switching gears this morning, so if you have Amazon Prime,
- 32:36Speaker 13: you could have some money coming your way. So millions
- 32:39Speaker 13: more Prime customers, they are now eligible for a refund
- 32:43Speaker 13: after the federal court expanded who qualifies under Amazon's $ 2. 5
- 32:47Speaker 13: billion settlement. So we talked about this maybe like six
- 32:50Speaker 13: months ago. So there was a refund set for about $ 51.
- 32:55Speaker 13: They have now expanded that to $ 200. And so here's
- 32:58Speaker 13: how you could qualify. So Amazon, If you use your
- 33:00Speaker 13: Prime benefits between 11 to 20 times a year, you
- 33:05Speaker 13: could now get money back. And that starts October 1,
- 33:08Speaker 13: and you don't have to file a claim. So this
- 33:10Speaker 13: was that lawsuit that said you signed up for Amazon Prime,
- 33:14Speaker 13: but you had trouble trying to unsubscribe. And so a
- 33:17Speaker 13: lot of people complained. There was a class action lawsuit.
- 33:19Speaker 13: They were giving people $ 51 fine. But it has now
- 33:22Speaker 13: expanded to $ 200, and there's nothing that you have to do.
- 33:26Speaker 13: You just have to wait until October 1st, and they
- 33:30Speaker 13: will put that money through Venmo, PayPal, or a check
- 33:34Speaker 13: in the mail. So just look out for that.
- 33:38Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 33:39Speaker 14: So if you order Amazon, that is a good way
- 33:41Speaker 14: to get a little $ 200 coming soon.
- 33:44Speaker 1: There ain't no little $ 200 in this economy.
- 33:48Speaker 19: You're right.
- 33:49Speaker 1: There ain't no little. They are right.
- 33:51Speaker 14: You're absolutely right. You're absolutely right.
- 33:53Speaker 13: It went from $ 51 to $ 200. And they said that
- 33:57Speaker 13: if you already got the $ 51, you still are eligible
- 34:00Speaker 13: for that extra $ 149 as well.
- 34:03Speaker 14: So you could still get that.
- 34:05Speaker 6: Give me me.
- 34:06Speaker 9: I want it all.
- 34:07Speaker 6: The holidays right around the corner. How much turkey is.
- 34:09Speaker 1: Going to cost this shit?
- 34:10Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 34:11Speaker 12: I don't even think people are going to have turkey.
- 34:13Speaker 6: You're right.
- 34:14Speaker 1: You're right.
- 34:15Speaker 5: I went to the grocery store and they already got
- 34:16Speaker 5: so many Christmas stuff up.
- 34:17Speaker 1: They got the trees up. They got everything. All I

- 35:27Speaker 2: Him and my man, Big Ice Cup Catch. So, we're
- 35:29Speaker 2: going to talk to him about that.
- 35:30Speaker 7: All right.
- 35:30Speaker 1: We'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.
- 35:33Speaker 1: It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
- 35:36Speaker 1: The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building.
- 35:39Speaker 6: Yes, indeed.
- 35:39Speaker 1: Y'all take care. Welcome back, brother.
- 35:41Speaker 9: How you feeling? Two times in one year, man. That
- 35:43Speaker 9: sounds good, man.
- 35:44Speaker 1: Hell yeah. And you taking the show on the road.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Grits and Eggs podcast is on tour.
- 35:49Speaker 9: You see it where the camera at. Coming through America.
- 35:51Speaker 6: Coming through America. Coming through America. Start October 1st in Chicago.
- 35:55Speaker 1: What can people expect at this show that they can't get,
- 35:58Speaker 1: you know, from the podcast?
- 35:59Speaker 9: You know, most people will say, like, especially given my content,
- 36:04Speaker 9: I wish it was more people that thought like this
- 36:05Speaker 9: in my city. Or, you know, I wish my friend group,
- 36:07Speaker 9: I could talk to them about these things. But I'm
- 36:10Speaker 9: bringing that to you. So you're going to be in
- 36:11Speaker 9: a room with 500, 800, 1,000 people that's in your city,
- 36:15Speaker 9: in your area, that you could build with, build community.
- 36:17Speaker 9: You could talk the way you want to talk with them.
- 36:19Speaker 9: That's kind of pushing that. That message, the same kind
- 36:22Speaker 9: of messaging we push on the pod, but doing it
- 36:24Speaker 9: live and doing it with people. You know what I mean?
- 36:26Speaker 9: We do it together. So I just kind of look
- 36:28Speaker 9: like it's like one big communal, like a family reunion
- 36:31Speaker 9: type of shit. When we come out together, you know
- 36:32Speaker 9: who your people is now. So if you leave the
- 36:34Speaker 9: show and you want to go back to talking about
- 36:36Speaker 9: there ain't no community. you just missed the opportunity to
- 36:38Speaker 9: do it. You know what I mean?
- 36:39Speaker 2: That's how I know we need more in real life events, right?
- 36:43Speaker 2: Because social media will have you thinking that people's thoughts
- 36:45Speaker 2: are fragmented.
- 36:46Speaker 6: When I hear Grits and Nags podcast.
- 36:48Speaker 1: That's the type of conscious commentary that we've been having
- 36:50Speaker 1: our whole lives.
- 36:52Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying?
- 36:53Speaker 1: So I can't believe people can't find that in their communities.
- 36:55Speaker 9: Yeah, I think it's just like a thing of maybe
- 36:58Speaker 9: an assumption. You know what I mean? Or just scared
- 37:01Speaker 9: to break the ice with people about certain things when
- 37:02Speaker 9: it comes to politics or pop culture or whatever. But
- 37:05Speaker 9: my thing is, it's like, it really ain't no excuse.
- 37:07Speaker 9: Once we pull up, you there with your folks. And
- 37:10Speaker 9: it's like, a lot of people is talking about kind
- 37:11Speaker 9: of breaking away, building together. A lot of people want
- 37:13Speaker 9: to do this more of an insulated lifestyle instead of
- 37:16Speaker 9: the hustle and bustle of everyday days. So like, I'm like,
- 37:19Speaker 9: I feel like this is a perfect opportunity to bring
- 37:21Speaker 9: it to you. And then you've got your people you
- 37:23Speaker 9: can talk to about anything that you want to talk to. Like,
- 37:26Speaker 9: when we're talking about our community, sometimes we talk about
- 37:28Speaker 9: it in a lot of mixed company, especially online. And
- 37:31Speaker 9: it's like, y'all want to do political strategy on threads. Like,
- 37:34Speaker 9: that don't make sense. You know what I mean? It's
- 37:36Speaker 9: like you're giving away your strategy. That don't make sense.
- 37:38Speaker 9: So I think it would be cool for people to
- 37:40Speaker 9: be in a space where they can try to figure
- 37:42Speaker 9: out something where in their community they can really get
- 37:44Speaker 9: together and talk because outside of the church, We done
- 37:46Speaker 9: missed that. You know what I mean?
- 37:47Speaker 1: I was going to ask, was it difficult?
- 37:49Speaker 5: And did you have to think twice about doing this tour, right?
- 37:52Speaker 5: So many people have come up here recently saying selling
- 37:54Speaker 5: tickets have been very difficult with everything that's going on
- 37:56Speaker 5: in the world.
- 37:57Speaker 1: Have you guys had the same problem? Did you have
- 37:58Speaker 1: to think about that?
- 38:00Speaker 9: I thought about it because I don't want to be
- 38:02Speaker 9: somebody that's just like, it's just another thing we got
- 38:05Speaker 9: to pay for. But I think the show must go on.
- 38:07Speaker 9: You know what I mean? Like, I think a lot
- 38:09Speaker 9: of times we'll find it in the budget to spend something.
- 38:12Speaker 9: Like if it's for us, if it's entertainment. You know
- 38:15Speaker 9: what I mean? So I think the demand was there.
- 38:18Speaker 9: And we're going to come meet the demand. You know,
- 38:21Speaker 9: two weeks, ticket sales have been looking good. So, you know,
- 38:25Speaker 9: we had to pull one city, but it was like
- 38:27Speaker 9: Salt Lake City. I mean, that ain't really my demo note.
- 38:30Speaker 1: How'd that get on the table? I don't even know.
- 38:33Speaker 9: I think they wanted me to go to Evangelize to
- 38:35Speaker 9: the Mormons. Like, yo, come here. You know what I mean?
- 38:37Speaker 9: This black ain't what you think it is.
- 38:42Speaker 1: Do people get mad?
- 38:42Speaker 2: Do they be like, well, Deontay, you have an anti-capitalist stance,
- 38:46Speaker 2: so why are you charging us, you know, for tour tickets?
- 38:49Speaker 9: I think we, I think, yeah, because they definitely charging
- 38:52Speaker 9: me to pull up. You know what I mean? And
- 38:54Speaker 9: I definitely got to pay my team. But I think
- 38:56Speaker 9: we got to, I mean, I think when we're using words,
- 38:59Speaker 9: we need to understand what they mean, too. I'm not
- 39:01Speaker 9: exploiting my audience. I mean, this is commerce. This is economics.
- 39:04Speaker 9: That's what we're doing. And I'm never going to be
- 39:07Speaker 9: in a position where I'm salty because people can't afford
- 39:10Speaker 9: to come out. Like, I understand the times we live in.
- 39:13Speaker 9: But I think we wait a year. We don't know
- 39:15Speaker 9: what a year can bring. We don't know what a
- 39:17Speaker 9: year can bring on social media. Like, especially my opinionators,
- 39:20Speaker 9: they might try to get me up out of here
- 39:21Speaker 9: in a year. You know what I mean? But I
- 39:23Speaker 9: think just the time to do it is now. I
- 39:24Speaker 9: ain't letting the world dictate. How I maneuver. You know
- 39:27Speaker 9: what I mean? Like, at the end of the day,
- 39:28Speaker 9: s * * *, they still selling they high-priced b * * * *. So,
- 39:33Speaker 9: at least you can get some quality things at a
- 39:35Speaker 9: quality price with me. You know what I mean?
- 39:37Speaker 5: How do you decide what you're going to do with
- 39:38Speaker 5: each show, each market? Does it change each show, each market?
- 39:40Speaker 5: Or depending on what's going on in the world?
- 39:42Speaker 9: Yeah, there's a lot. I mean, of course, there's going
- 39:44Speaker 9: to be some aspects of current events. But what I
- 39:47Speaker 9: formulated is this idea of people are understanding that the
- 39:50Speaker 9: country we live in is a corporation. You know what
- 39:52Speaker 9: I mean? So as long as you participate in them
- 39:54Speaker 9: day to day, you a part of the corporation. You
- 39:56Speaker 9: got your own little cubicle. You know what I mean?
- 39:58Speaker 9: So if you don't like the corporation, then retire from
- 40:01Speaker 9: it or resign from it. But it's really a mental
- 40:05Speaker 9: resignation that I'm talking about. A lot of times, the issues...
- 40:09Speaker 9: Let's take, for example, when you're on Threads or Instagram
- 40:12Speaker 9: and you're constantly clapping back at people you don't agree
- 40:14Speaker 9: with or you're creating these stink pieces. around people that
- 40:17Speaker 9: you don't agree with, it's like you giving them all
- 40:19Speaker 9: your energy, right? You could be, you an intelligent person,
- 40:23Speaker 9: but you missing the intelligent part of like being quiet sometimes. Yeah.
- 40:26Speaker 9: Or just like letting people, they want your attention. Black
- 40:28Speaker 9: people need to understand how valuable our attention is online.
- 40:32Speaker 9: It's like a legitimate currency.
- 40:34Speaker 2: That book I keep recommending, Technofutalism, What Killed Capitalism? They
- 40:38Speaker 2: tell you that the greatest cloud capital is conflict and
- 40:41Speaker 2: they monetize our emotions. You can go in there right
- 40:45Speaker 2: now and it's something that's going to get you there.
- 40:48Speaker 1: It's happening.
- 40:49Speaker 9: You'll be on threads and it's like, I don't really
- 40:53Speaker 9: get all the hype about black Americans. Why do we even...
- 40:56Speaker 9: and then yeah they say you look up the account
- 40:58Speaker 9: it'll be like from Bangladesh or something like that damn
- 41:04Speaker 9: he live in Nepal I mean you arguing with a
- 41:07Speaker 9: robot but I think the thing is is like we
- 41:10Speaker 9: do kind of get to have to get to a
- 41:11Speaker 9: point where we just learn how to take a beat
- 41:13Speaker 9: like okay you said something that pissed me off but
- 41:16Speaker 9: that's just my initial reaction if you did that in
- 41:18Speaker 9: every aspect of your life literally all you gonna do
- 41:21Speaker 9: is spend time in conflict and it's like that's frustrating
- 41:24Speaker 9: that's draining too That's a bigger game, too, just to
- 41:26Speaker 9: keep you draining your energy or keep your energy directed
- 41:29Speaker 9: into something that's not helping you grow.
- 41:30Speaker 5: But when you realize the person that's actually doing it
- 41:32Speaker 5: is only doing it to create money, right? Because, like
- 41:34Speaker 5: you said, I say some BS, I monetize it, you
- 41:37Speaker 5: know what I mean? And then if I catch you, oh,
- 41:39Speaker 5: I'm going to keep doing it and keep doing it
- 41:40Speaker 5: and keep talking. And I'm going to make it even
- 41:42Speaker 5: worse every time because you're going to respond. People are
- 41:44Speaker 5: going to come to it and then I'll make a
- 41:45Speaker 5: couple thousand dollars and I'm good.
- 41:46Speaker 9: Yeah, I think people think the only time you can
- 41:48Speaker 9: have your attention as a currency is when you.
- 41:50Speaker 1: like a celebrity.
- 41:51Speaker 9: Like, you know what I mean? Like, me and you know,
- 41:53Speaker 9: if we respond to everything, everybody in this room know, like,
- 41:56Speaker 9: if we respond to every video somebody made about us,
- 41:58Speaker 9: that'll be all we do. Yeah. You know what I mean? So,
- 42:01Speaker 9: but I think the average everyday person doesn't understand how
- 42:04Speaker 9: much their attention is being farmed as currency as well.
- 42:06Speaker 9: And your emotions is like, it's not, it's gotten to
- 42:10Speaker 9: a point where it's not something that we put through
- 42:11Speaker 9: a filter. You know what I mean? But you don't
- 42:13Speaker 9: do that in your real life. You know what I mean? Like,
- 42:15Speaker 9: that's my big issue. If somebody ran down on you,
- 42:18Speaker 9: try you like that, you can be like, Oh, brother,
- 42:19Speaker 9: there's police out here, you know what I'm saying?
- 42:21Speaker 1: Nobody's ever going to run down on you like that.
- 42:23Speaker 1: Nobody will ever talk to you in real life the
- 42:25Speaker 1: way they do.
- 42:25Speaker 9: That's my point.
- 42:25Speaker 1: It's never going to happen. Something that's not real.
- 42:28Speaker 11: No.
- 42:28Speaker 9: You know what I mean? Because if people talk to
- 42:30Speaker 9: you like that in real life, you ain't getting nothing done.
- 42:32Speaker 17: No.
- 42:33Speaker 9: You'd be constantly dealing with the bail bondsman.
- 42:35Speaker 1: You'd be fighting every day.
- 42:36Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 42:37Speaker 9: It'd just be you and the bail bondsman. Like, all right, bro,
- 42:38Speaker 9: I'll see you tomorrow at 12.
- 42:40Speaker 1: Same time, same place.
- 42:41Speaker 9: Same time, same place.
- 42:42Speaker 1: How was your view of things changed?
- 42:43Speaker 2: Because I love having conversations with brothers like you because Literally,
- 42:47Speaker 2: you was driving the truck, wasn't it two years ago?
- 42:50Speaker 9: It was a year ago in April. It's only been
- 42:52Speaker 9: a year? Yeah.
- 42:53Speaker 1: When I came here in December, it was like six,
- 42:55Speaker 1: seven months.
- 42:55Speaker 13: Wow.
- 43:01Speaker 9: Yeah, it's just been over a year.
- 43:02Speaker 1: So when you're on the outside looking in, right?
- 43:05Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 43:05Speaker 1: Things can look a lot different. Now that you got
- 43:08Speaker 1: more of a foot inside, how do things look?
- 43:10Speaker 9: Look, man, the most beautiful thing is when you feel
- 43:13Speaker 9: like you got your time back and then you realize,
- 43:15Speaker 9: I just got to supplement that time with something else
- 43:17Speaker 9: because there ain't no guaranteed thing in this. I enjoy
- 43:20Speaker 9: it because it's like, of course, I get to wake
- 43:22Speaker 9: up and do what I love. And not for nothing,
- 43:25Speaker 9: I just get to be myself. I think a lot
- 43:27Speaker 9: of times people put in positions where you got to
- 43:30Speaker 9: be a version of yourself or a caricature, but I
- 43:33Speaker 9: enjoy it, but I think it gives me a lot
- 43:34Speaker 9: more time to focus on the things that's important. And,
- 43:37Speaker 9: you know, at least try to remain, like, in a
- 43:39Speaker 9: space where I'm understanding and, like, connected to people. Because,
- 43:43Speaker 9: you know, I still go to the schools, talk to
- 43:44Speaker 9: the kids, but I'm, like, still in tune with a
- 43:46Speaker 9: lot of truck drivers and just kind of getting to
- 43:48Speaker 9: know them every day. Like, I know that diesel is, like, $ 6.
- 43:50Speaker 1: 50 right now.
- 43:51Speaker 9: You know what I mean? So it's like, because the
- 43:52Speaker 9: homies will call me, like, yeah, I'm going to sell
- 43:55Speaker 9: my truck because this shit just don't make sense no more.
- 43:58Speaker 12: I don't know if you've heard, because I know you
- 43:59Speaker 12: still tapped into that industry, all the schools that's been
- 44:02Speaker 12: getting shut down or whatever for, you know, illegally giving
- 44:05Speaker 12: out these licenses to people who can't read English, speak English.
- 44:09Speaker 9: I think it's a really good thing, to be honest,
- 44:11Speaker 9: because I was trucking in the pandemic and a lot
- 44:14Speaker 9: of independent truckers were starting to come up during the pandemic.
- 44:17Speaker 9: But then the rates started dropping because you do have
- 44:20Speaker 9: people that aren't licensed. You do have people that are
- 44:23Speaker 9: immigrants and whatnot that are taking the lowball offers. And
- 44:27Speaker 9: then you're messing up the paper for everybody. Because the
- 44:30Speaker 9: rate used to be a certain rate and it dropped
- 44:32Speaker 9: down so low where it's like, we're just out here
- 44:34Speaker 9: paying for gas at this point. But I do think
- 44:36Speaker 9: also it just causes for the roads to be a
- 44:38Speaker 9: lot safer because You see people doing U-turns on the expressway.
- 44:42Speaker 1: Right.
- 44:43Speaker 9: Yeah, man.
- 44:45Speaker 1: And messing up the trains.
- 44:46Speaker 9: And not even that. They'd be drunk. It'd be a lot.
- 44:49Speaker 9: And it's not to, like, stereotype a single nobody. Y'all,
- 44:51Speaker 9: this is what's going on. You know what I mean? But, yeah, man,
- 44:54Speaker 9: I think it'd be a good thing because that's not
- 44:57Speaker 9: something to just take a shortcut with.
- 44:59Speaker 6: These trucks can kill people.
- 45:00Speaker 9: And then it's also, like, this is the movement of
- 45:03Speaker 9: our consumer economy. Like, this is the lifeblood of our
- 45:06Speaker 9: economy when it comes to transferring goods. So... That need
- 45:09Speaker 9: to be done with care.
- 45:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 45:11Speaker 5: What's one thing that changed your mind, friend, with Charlamagne,
- 45:13Speaker 5: said that when you were a driver, you looked at
- 45:15Speaker 5: it one way, but now you're on the other side.
- 45:16Speaker 1: You look at it totally different.
- 45:18Speaker 9: Ah, man, just, uh, I used to be one of them, uh, yeah,
- 45:22Speaker 9: that n * * * a Illuminati.
- 45:25Speaker 1: Now they say you in it. Yeah, now they say
- 45:27Speaker 1: I'm in it. You know what I mean? Take a
- 45:28Speaker 1: little picture on BET. They're like, yeah, that heat, they
- 45:31Speaker 1: got him. They got him, you know?
- 45:33Speaker 9: So I was like, sometimes you just laying in your
- 45:36Speaker 9: bed just watching, like, you know, lanterns or something like that.
- 45:38Speaker 9: And you're like, yeah, this is, I mean, this still,
- 45:40Speaker 9: this celebrity too. I'm chilling. I'm in here on my drawers.
- 45:43Speaker 9: And it's like, these regular people, bro.
- 45:45Speaker 27: Yeah.
- 45:46Speaker 9: Yeah. Some people probably making little backdoor deals, but that
- 45:49Speaker 9: ain't none of my business. I mean, do you, but
- 45:51Speaker 9: I think the humanity of people, like it's one thing
- 45:54Speaker 9: is just change your perspective because a lot of times
- 45:57Speaker 9: when people on social media or just in corporate media,
- 45:59Speaker 9: media in general, you kind of view them as larger
- 46:01Speaker 9: in life. You meet them, They just everyday person, bro.
- 46:04Speaker 9: They got their own problems too. They, and they carrying
- 46:06Speaker 9: it with them. They just kind of, it's a lot
- 46:08Speaker 9: more produced. You know what I mean? My life, my
- 46:11Speaker 9: life ain't as produced as some people, but some people
- 46:13Speaker 9: life is an entire production. And that's why I look
- 46:16Speaker 9: like that. You know what I mean?
- 46:17Speaker 6: Land of Soul Fire. Man.
- 46:19Speaker 1: I rock with it.
- 46:20Speaker 2: DC hasn't missed with TV shows yet. I'm a Marvel guy.
- 46:23Speaker 2: But the DC TV shows, Penguin, Peacemaker, Lantern.
- 46:26Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
- 46:27Speaker 9: All right, man. Shout out to them In It boys, man.
- 46:28Speaker 9: Them In It boys, they get a role. They go crazy, man.
- 46:32Speaker 1: Who the hell is In It boys?
- 46:33Speaker 9: In It, man.
- 46:34Speaker 2: Bro.
- 46:34Speaker 9: Okay. y'all one thing about this boy boy you give
- 46:45Speaker 9: him a roll nah they locking that roll down man
- 46:49Speaker 9: I ain't gonna lie you know what I'm saying y'all
- 46:52Speaker 9: be like why we need more black men beat them
- 46:55Speaker 9: beat the Brits man they gotta beat the Brits they
- 46:57Speaker 9: take the crabs more serious I think I don't know
- 46:59Speaker 9: if it's more serious I think it's just you know
- 47:02Speaker 9: I think I think it get you leveled up like
- 47:04Speaker 9: you walk in you talking real prim and proper you
- 47:06Speaker 9: really using the queen's english And then you turn it on.
- 47:08Speaker 9: You know what I mean? I'm California now. I think
- 47:11Speaker 9: it's like to a producer, it's like, oh, this is talented, bro.
- 47:14Speaker 1: You think it's about the way the American actors carry themselves.
- 47:17Speaker 9: Yeah, and then you ain't got to worry about the
- 47:19Speaker 9: yada mean of it all. You know what I mean? Like,
- 47:21Speaker 9: if a person in America is really American, they tapping
- 47:24Speaker 9: into American politics, they tapping into black communal politics, you
- 47:28Speaker 9: got to worry about what they're in it, man. They
- 47:30Speaker 9: just go get their bread and get back over the lake.
- 47:32Speaker 2: Ain't too many American actors that speak out, though. I mean, historically,
- 47:35Speaker 2: even when I think about it, there hasn't been.
- 47:36Speaker 6: Too many that.
- 47:37Speaker 9: Yeah, especially right now, man. You know, we could use
- 47:40Speaker 9: some voices. Some shit going on, man.
- 47:42Speaker 1: How do you feel about that? I keep seeing people
- 47:44Speaker 1: say that. I keep seeing people saying in videos, like, man,
- 47:46Speaker 1: celebrities need to use their voices. It feel kind of
- 47:49Speaker 1: weak to me to be calling a celebrity.
- 47:51Speaker 9: I feel like the everyday person should use their voice more,
- 47:53Speaker 9: but I feel like.
- 47:54Speaker 1: I feel like we got midterms around the corner. Yeah.
- 47:56Speaker 2: So you should be using your voice to say, hey,
- 47:58Speaker 2: you should.
- 47:59Speaker 1: Be checking for these elected officials because they line up
- 48:01Speaker 1: with our interests on this as opposed to, like, what
- 48:03Speaker 1: is a celebrity going to do?
- 48:05Speaker 9: I think the thing is, is, like, the platform more
- 48:07Speaker 9: so can bring awareness, but it ain't going to change the...
- 48:10Speaker 9: It ain't going to change the deal because we got
- 48:11Speaker 9: an interview coming out Saturday where I'm talking to like
- 48:13Speaker 9: a political analyst. And the whole thing is about stressing
- 48:16Speaker 9: around these midterm voting, where you can register, how to register.
- 48:19Speaker 9: And it's important to me because they do make a
- 48:22Speaker 9: lot of maneuvers to make sure you can't vote or
- 48:24Speaker 9: they make it difficult for you to do it. So
- 48:26Speaker 9: there's value in it. The fact of the matter is
- 48:29Speaker 9: like our ancestors did die for this, too. So it's
- 48:31Speaker 9: obviously important. Right. But. I think the bigger thing is, like,
- 48:35Speaker 9: if you want to be civically engaged, then you got
- 48:37Speaker 9: to do that with action. It can't just be talk.
- 48:40Speaker 9: The everyday person, when they realize they hold a lot
- 48:43Speaker 9: more power than a select few, will activate in a
- 48:46Speaker 9: different way. But I think, you know, how are the
- 48:48Speaker 9: celebrities accountable for, like, bringing awareness to things that you
- 48:51Speaker 9: could also equally bring awareness to, especially given the internet
- 48:54Speaker 9: and how it is, but also these people, you know,
- 48:57Speaker 9: it would be beautiful if they used their platforms to
- 48:59Speaker 9: champion the everyday person's plight, but They just don't. And
- 49:02Speaker 9: a lot of times, you don't realize, like, man, these
- 49:04Speaker 9: people work for somebody that they probably can't. You know
- 49:06Speaker 9: what I mean? Like, they probably got golden handcuffs. So,
- 49:09Speaker 9: I mean, I can give everybody some grace. I do
- 49:11Speaker 9: also think, you know, let's not do it when it's
- 49:14Speaker 9: convenient for us.
- 49:15Speaker 6: Let's not let's.
- 49:15Speaker 9: Not try to be fight the power when it's like, yeah.
- 49:18Speaker 9: And I got this book coming out too.
- 49:19Speaker 11: You know what I mean?
- 49:20Speaker 9: So it's like, you can't just do it when it's
- 49:22Speaker 9: convenient or opportunistic, but we were.
- 49:23Speaker 1: Just having that conversation about Colin Kaepernick.
- 49:25Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 49:26Speaker 1: We literally was having that conversation.
- 49:27Speaker 2: Just saying how like, you know, He said that he
- 49:31Speaker 2: felt like everybody in the league should have protested, right?
- 49:34Speaker 2: And everybody should have went on strike. Sure, but you
- 49:37Speaker 2: also went on Higher Learning Podcast and said you never
- 49:39Speaker 2: called for a boycott or a protest. So my thing
- 49:41Speaker 2: was you could have been maybe the leader that could
- 49:43Speaker 2: have sparked that off back then. We only hear from
- 49:46Speaker 2: you when you're out here selling us something.
- 49:47Speaker 9: I mean, I'm going to go out there on Saturday.
- 49:49Speaker 9: You know what I mean? Okay. I'm moderating this book tour.
- 49:53Speaker 4: Okay, dope.
- 49:53Speaker 9: But I think the thing is, too, is, like, sometimes
- 49:57Speaker 9: when we make a bold move, we expect people to
- 50:00Speaker 9: kind of get in with us. And obviously people have
- 50:03Speaker 9: to think.
- 50:03Speaker 10: And not be prompted. Like, just go ahead and stand up.
- 50:05Speaker 18: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 50:06Speaker 9: And call to actions matter. You know what I mean?
- 50:07Speaker 9: To your point. Like, if you would have said, you
- 50:09Speaker 9: know what I mean, I need her. Because, I mean,
- 50:11Speaker 9: that's the truth. You know what I mean? It's like. 86%
- 50:14Speaker 9: black league.
- 50:15Speaker 1: 70.
- 50:15Speaker 27: 70?
- 50:15Speaker 11: Yeah. 70 what?
- 50:16Speaker 7: 76?
- 50:16Speaker 9: No, I think it's just 70. Yeah, I mean, that
- 50:20Speaker 9: changes the game. I mean, you ain't going to have
- 50:22Speaker 9: a number of quarterbacks or kickers out there.
- 50:23Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
- 50:25Speaker 2: There's no one black person, I don't care if it's Jay-Z,
- 50:28Speaker 2: Colin Kaepernick, who could stop 70% of players from protesting
- 50:32Speaker 2: if they wanted to protest.
- 50:33Speaker 1: Even if it was just 30, 40 who was like, yo,
- 50:35Speaker 1: we ain't moving. Nothing's moving.
- 50:36Speaker 9: I think when we look at America as it is,
- 50:40Speaker 9: it's like, And we talk about the working class. The
- 50:42Speaker 9: working class is the majority of America, right? So obviously,
- 50:46Speaker 9: in theory, if we all was to just kind of
- 50:48Speaker 9: stand up and say, you know what? Until these things happen,
- 50:51Speaker 9: we ain't going back to work. Or until these things happen,
- 50:54Speaker 9: we boycotting this and that. But a lot of people
- 50:56Speaker 9: are going to be self-concerned about what they're going to lose.
- 50:59Speaker 9: And it's like, of course, in theory, if we all
- 51:01Speaker 9: collectively did it together, then none of us lose. We
- 51:05Speaker 9: only stand to win as long as we got demands
- 51:07Speaker 9: in place, right? But I think Everybody thinking about themselves
- 51:10Speaker 9: like this is kind of like a very individualistic society
- 51:13Speaker 9: where the next person is like, OK, I see how
- 51:15Speaker 9: this could benefit us in six months, but this could
- 51:18Speaker 9: take away a lot from me today. And a lot
- 51:20Speaker 9: of people think about today and today only.
- 51:22Speaker 6: I want to go back to something you said about celebrity,
- 51:23Speaker 6: but I thought that was important, too.
- 51:25Speaker 1: Like, I get sick of people pushing celebrities just to
- 51:28Speaker 1: say something or just, you know, just give a shout-out,
- 51:31Speaker 1: say whatever the slogan is. And then I see them
- 51:34Speaker 1: applauding people when they do it, right? Like, they'll applaud
- 51:37Speaker 1: the Miss Rachel. They'll applaud the Macklemore's. I like it
- 51:39Speaker 1: when you actually look and see what Miss Rachel actually
- 51:42Speaker 1: has done.
- 51:42Speaker 6: I mean, she be on that.
- 51:44Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 51:46Speaker 1: She's on it. She does real humanitarian efforts. She's about action. Macklemore,
- 51:50Speaker 1: when he comes out, he's like, yo, I'm pledging a
- 51:52Speaker 1: million dollars to these Palestinian relief efforts. That, to me,
- 51:55Speaker 1: is what matters more than just getting them to say, yo,
- 51:58Speaker 1: a shout out.
- 51:59Speaker 9: I think the bigger thing is this. In a situation
- 52:02Speaker 9: like that, like you said, look at what people do.
- 52:04Speaker 9: Because people that are for the people have always been
- 52:07Speaker 9: for the people. You know what I mean? Some people,
- 52:09Speaker 9: every now and then, they might wake up with a conscience.
- 52:11Speaker 9: But for the most part, the people that it's like
- 52:13Speaker 9: community for, that care about. people at a larger scale
- 52:16Speaker 9: have always been like that. You know what I mean?
- 52:18Speaker 9: And like you said, you can see it in their resume.
- 52:20Speaker 9: And those are the people, like, if that's what you
- 52:22Speaker 9: want out of your celebrity, that's the people you should
- 52:24Speaker 9: champion and support. Because they do sacrifice a lot. You
- 52:28Speaker 9: know what I mean? Like, they're making it ain't no
- 52:31Speaker 9: easy bed to lay in because you do lose a
- 52:33Speaker 9: lot of the corporate gigs. You do lose a lot
- 52:34Speaker 9: of your brand deals. And the sponsorships, and like, it
- 52:37Speaker 9: is important for the people to champion behind those people.
- 52:40Speaker 9: But it's also important to accept that ain't gonna do it.
- 52:43Speaker 9: You know what I mean?
- 52:44Speaker 5: I also think, like, what Charlamagne said is, pause, pause, pause.
- 52:47Speaker 5: I think the mouth is just as important as the money, right?
- 52:49Speaker 1: I said pause. The reason I said that.
- 52:51Speaker 9: I mean, you did, but it was... I mean, yeah,
- 52:53Speaker 9: you could've just said it. You brought my attention to it,
- 52:56Speaker 9: and now it's like, that is crazy.
- 52:58Speaker 12: Sometimes your mouth is more important.
- 53:02Speaker 1: I ain't f * * * ing.
- 53:04Speaker 4: Y'all no more. I'm trying to be fake deep over here.
- 53:06Speaker 1: You should have just did it. Nah, because I see
- 53:08Speaker 1: the way he was about to look at me. I
- 53:09Speaker 1: wasn't going to say nothing.
- 53:10Speaker 5: I was just saying, sometimes, you know, saying what you
- 53:13Speaker 5: need to hear and letting the masses hear you is
- 53:15Speaker 5: just as important as donating money for people.
- 53:17Speaker 13: Nah, it is.
- 53:18Speaker 9: I think the thing is, like, if we agree that
- 53:20Speaker 9: attention is currency when it comes to people farming your emotions,
- 53:24Speaker 9: then it's just as important when it comes to support
- 53:26Speaker 9: and effort. You know what I mean? Like, I think
- 53:28Speaker 9: a lot of times the celebrity kind of take the
- 53:31Speaker 9: place of the everyday.
- 53:33Speaker 1: Person and what they feel like they can't do.
- 53:34Speaker 9: You know what I mean? But it's like if you
- 53:36Speaker 9: can go viral for criticizing them, sometimes like that is
- 53:40Speaker 9: more of a part of the game. Like drama and
- 53:42Speaker 9: gossip does win. That's why I like it's important to
- 53:45Speaker 9: get creative with your hooks because some people will create
- 53:48Speaker 9: a reel or a TikTok and you think it's going
- 53:52Speaker 9: to be messy and they really promote something positive. I mean,
- 53:54Speaker 9: so it's like, you kind of can do the bait
- 53:55Speaker 9: and switch in some hands. But it's like, none of
- 53:57Speaker 9: us got all this shit figured out. I just think
- 54:00Speaker 9: it's important, like, to support the people who are trying
- 54:03Speaker 9: to figure it out. Especially if they, if them figuring out,
- 54:06Speaker 9: I mean, they in the by and large bigger supporter community. Because, like,
- 54:10Speaker 9: the more, like, like, bro was saying about the technocrats,
- 54:12Speaker 9: the more they get power. It's like, they use all
- 54:15Speaker 9: their free time to figure out how they gonna kill everybody. Like,
- 54:19Speaker 9: it's odd, the behavior. because I don't know what the
- 54:21Speaker 9: end game is.
- 54:23Speaker 2: I disagree with what Envy said, because I don't want
- 54:26Speaker 2: everybody just speaking for the sake of speaking, right? Because
- 54:28Speaker 2: then we start giving props to people for the basics,
- 54:31Speaker 2: especially when they're a white person. It's like when you
- 54:34Speaker 2: see a white person do a basic dance, and you're like, oh!
- 54:38Speaker 9: We've got to stop inviting people to, like, that whole
- 54:41Speaker 9: little thing.
- 54:42Speaker 5: But Macklemore's speech was more powerful than the money.
- 54:44Speaker 1: Listen, shout out to Macklemore. Shout out to Macklemore, but
- 54:47Speaker 1: Macklemore said Free Palestine, and I'm seeing people posting.
- 54:49Speaker 6: They got him on the cover of Time Magazine.
- 54:51Speaker 1: Saying he the man of the year.
- 54:52Speaker 6: As if we haven't seen Dolce do that.
- 54:54Speaker 1: That's true.
- 54:54Speaker 9: I mean, everybody been doing that.
- 54:55Speaker 1: As if we haven't seen SZA do the same thing.
- 54:57Speaker 1: As if Kalani didn't risk it all doing the same thing.
- 55:00Speaker 9: I mean, I'm going to keep it a billion, too. Like,
- 55:03Speaker 9: that didn't make sense to me, man. I've been hollering
- 55:05Speaker 9: about Free Palestine for, like, years, brother.
- 55:07Speaker 6: See what I'm saying?
- 55:07Speaker 9: Years. Like, Zach Fox been doing that. Earl Sweatshirt be
- 55:10Speaker 9: doing that. It's a lot of, it's a, everybody you mentioned, like,
- 55:14Speaker 9: it wasn't the bravest stance.
- 55:18Speaker 1: Especially now.
- 55:19Speaker 9: You know what I mean?
- 55:20Speaker 1: When Kalani did it, it was like, oh. You know
- 55:22Speaker 1: what I mean?
- 55:23Speaker 9: It wasn't the craziest thing, but it's like, yeah, you know,
- 55:25Speaker 9: we love to give white people some props when they
- 55:28Speaker 9: just doing some everyday. Like, I think, for whatever reason,
- 55:30Speaker 9: we make it seem like white people are making the
- 55:32Speaker 9: ultimate sacrifice. Like, you was on tour and sharing shit. Like,
- 55:44Speaker 9: I don't know if you're the man of the year, but, like, like,
- 55:46Speaker 9: shout out, man. Nah, I'm good on you, bro.
- 55:50Speaker 1: Salute, salute, I respect it. But goddamn, y'all posting him
- 55:53Speaker 1: with that, I respect it.
- 55:54Speaker 2: I thought they would usually post him on the Time magazine,
- 55:57Speaker 2: man of the year.
- 55:58Speaker 6: I'm like, come on.
- 55:59Speaker 1: That's a little too much.
- 56:00Speaker 9: Hey, man, they're going to get on a run over here.
- 56:02Speaker 9: You know what I'm saying? Because, like, what's your man's name? Like,
- 56:09Speaker 9: who just donated to, like, just donated a whole bunch
- 56:12Speaker 9: to the public school system? Was it Jalen Brown or
- 56:15Speaker 9: was it Jalen Hurst?
- 56:16Speaker 1: Jalen Hurst.
- 56:17Speaker 9: I mean, that's way bigger than that. Word. They're closing
- 56:22Speaker 9: these schools down in the city. And so, like, I
- 56:25Speaker 9: think it's also just another, like, man, who knows, bro?
- 56:28Speaker 9: You know what I mean? There could have been a meeting.
- 56:30Speaker 24: Yeah.
- 56:34Speaker 9: Macklemore, man, we ain't talked about you since the thrift
- 56:36Speaker 9: shop song. We're like, what are we going to do?
- 56:39Speaker 1: I said, too, how'd this get the gig with Ed Sheeran?
- 56:42Speaker 9: That's his guy.
- 56:43Speaker 6: I think that's his guy.
- 56:45Speaker 1: Isn't it his guy?
- 56:46Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 56:47Speaker 9: What's his hits?
- 56:49Speaker 1: What's his hits? I didn't want to make this a mess.
- 56:51Speaker 1: It wasn't a Macklemore bass.
- 56:52Speaker 6: I'm just talking.
- 56:53Speaker 1: Do your thing. Free Palestine, man.
- 56:55Speaker 9: Salute to Jalen Hurts.
- 56:57Speaker 1: He did donate $ 600, 000. to upgrade the HVAC and cooling
- 57:02Speaker 1: systems that know if he's high school.
- 57:04Speaker 9: That's big. Shout out to him.
- 57:05Speaker 6: That's big.

- 58:35Speaker 15: Because you particularly are bringing the energy to mainstream radio,
- 58:38Speaker 15: the black radio.
- 58:39Speaker 1: That source is trusted. Did you hear that exclusive?

- 58:43Speaker 24: everything and everything.
- 58:45Speaker 6: She be having the latest on things.

- 58:52Speaker 1: LL Cool B.
- 58:53Speaker 4: Talk to me.
- 58:55Speaker 24: All right, y'all. So last to latest, when we're talking
- 58:57Speaker 24: about the iHeartRadio Music Festival that went down in Vegas,
- 59:00Speaker 24: y'all asked the question whether Cardi B got enough out
- 59:02Speaker 24: of Am I the Drama or not? And I wanted
- 59:04Speaker 24: to mention this. I saw this yesterday because, you know,
- 59:06Speaker 24: she's celebrating one year of Am I the Drama. According
- 59:08Speaker 24: to chart data... Am I the Drama has now spent
- 59:11Speaker 24: one full year on the Billboard 200. So there are
- 59:15Speaker 24: sites that are pointing to Cardi B as officially the
- 59:17Speaker 24: first female rapper in history to have her first two
- 59:19Speaker 24: albums spend. at least one full year on the Billboard
- 59:22Speaker 24: 200 without leaving the charts. So, didn't want to mention
- 59:24Speaker 24: that in celebration of one year.
- 59:25Speaker 1: Stop playing with Big Barney. Okay, Barney a whole superstar
- 59:27Speaker 1: out here in this creature.
- 59:30Speaker 9: Oh, 100%.
- 59:30Speaker 1: A humble superstar, too. Yes. Very humble.
- 59:32Speaker 24: Well, speaking of other superstars that took the stage at
- 59:34Speaker 24: the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Vegas, Ciara hit the stage.
- 59:40Speaker 1: Nice and pregnant.
- 59:41Speaker 24: Yep, her and Baby Cinco. She performed on that stage, okay?
- 59:45Speaker 24: As we know, Ciara announced that she's pregnant with baby
- 59:47Speaker 24: number five. She did Goodies. She did One Two Step.
- 59:50Speaker 24: level up how we roll when she did like a
- 59:53Speaker 24: boy she did her back bend you know when she
- 59:55Speaker 24: does a slumbo she did that while holding the baby
- 59:57Speaker 24: bump yes I know.
- 59:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw all of that, and all I thought

- 1:01:36Speaker 24: showing up and being our very first guest to kick
- 1:01:38Speaker 24: that off. And again, y'all can listen to that everywhere
- 1:01:40Speaker 24: you get your podcast on October 6th. Now, shifting gears,
- 1:01:44Speaker 24: but still staying in performance lane. While we were in Vegas...
- 1:01:47Speaker 24: Ed Sheeran was over in Philly. So you guys remember
- 1:01:51Speaker 24: all of the controversy surrounding his loop tour. Macklemore being
- 1:01:55Speaker 24: removed from the tour from the venues and the promoters.
- 1:01:58Speaker 24: And Ed Sheeran getting a lot of that backlash from that.
- 1:02:01Speaker 24: So the tour continued on. He did his Philly stop
- 1:02:03Speaker 24: over the weekend on Saturday. And before he got into
- 1:02:06Speaker 24: the show, he opened his show and addressed some of
- 1:02:08Speaker 24: the backlash. Let's take a listen to Ed Sheeran opening
- 1:02:10Speaker 24: the show.
- 1:02:11Speaker 25: This is not usually how I would open the show,
- 1:02:14Speaker 25: but before I play some songs tonight, I hope it's
- 1:02:17Speaker 25: okay if I say a few words about this last week.
- 1:02:20Speaker 25: I'm used to my music being criticized, and I'm always
- 1:02:23Speaker 25: happy to take that. But this week, the criticism was
- 1:02:26Speaker 25: about something much more important, and I've had to take
- 1:02:29Speaker 25: and make difficult decisions, and I am making mistakes, and
- 1:02:33Speaker 25: I'm so, so sorry. I don't want to disappoint fans,
- 1:02:36Speaker 25: and I've never wanted to be an activist musician, but
- 1:02:39Speaker 25: this has put me in the middle of an important
- 1:02:41Speaker 25: and passionate argument about freedom of speech and the most
- 1:02:44Speaker 25: complex political issue on the planet. My concerts have always
- 1:02:47Speaker 25: been a safe space for everyone, and that matters hugely
- 1:02:51Speaker 25: to me. I am deeply worried about the idea that
- 1:02:54Speaker 25: venues should pre-approve content of performers. This happens in so
- 1:02:58Speaker 25: many places that I perform around the world, but it
- 1:03:00Speaker 25: should never happen in the free world.
- 1:03:02Speaker 24: Yeah. So, yeah, that's how he opened the tour. He
- 1:03:05Speaker 24: also addressed, you know, his take on Gaza directly as well, too.
- 1:03:09Speaker 24: Let's take a listen to that.
- 1:03:10Speaker 25: I want to address the question of where I stand
- 1:03:13Speaker 25: in the situation in Israel and Palestine and whether my
- 1:03:16Speaker 25: doing this concert here tonight implies where I stand. I
- 1:03:19Speaker 25: have tried in my career not to be a political
- 1:03:21Speaker 25: commentator of any kind because I want my music and
- 1:03:24Speaker 25: shows to To be about unity, not division. About humanity,
- 1:03:28Speaker 25: not politics. But this is a humanitarian issue and I
- 1:03:33Speaker 25: cannot hide.
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: How I feel about it anymore.
- 1:03:35Speaker 25: What happened in Israel and at the Nova Music Festival
- 1:03:38Speaker 25: on October 7th was horrific. and compounded centuries of Jewish pain.
- 1:03:42Speaker 25: What is happening in Gaza is catastrophic and unjustifiable and disproportionate.
- 1:03:48Speaker 25: My heart has been broken by the scale of devastation
- 1:03:51Speaker 25: and loss of civilians' lives, of children's lives. And the
- 1:03:55Speaker 25: systemic injustice we're seeing unfold in the West Bank cannot
- 1:03:58Speaker 25: be overlooked. This concert is still a place where everyone
- 1:04:01Speaker 25: is welcome and everyone here can stand beside people that
- 1:04:04Speaker 25: have opposing views and everyone here can stand by people
- 1:04:07Speaker 25: that they don't agree with on everything, but they can
- 1:04:10Speaker 25: all agree on singing these songs.
- 1:04:13Speaker 24: Yeah, so that's how he kicked the concert off. And
- 1:04:16Speaker 24: he didn't have anybody there performing with him. He did
- 1:04:17Speaker 24: bring out a backup band to assist because you remember
- 1:04:22Speaker 24: everybody dropped out. But he got through the concert. He
- 1:04:24Speaker 24: even talked about removing his B stage because he was nervous.
- 1:04:27Speaker 24: He didn't want to be close to the crowd because
- 1:04:29Speaker 24: he didn't know how they would be reacting to him.
- 1:04:31Speaker 24: There were even reports that like the tickets potentially weren't
- 1:04:34Speaker 24: going to sell. Then what wasn't selling people getting tickets
- 1:04:37Speaker 24: refunded as well. But I mean, people were there. He
- 1:04:41Speaker 24: got through and he apologized at the end for the
- 1:04:43Speaker 24: apology in the beginning.
- 1:04:44Speaker 6: You know who's not apologizing?
- 1:04:45Speaker 13: Who?
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: None of the owners that kept Macklemore out of these stadiums.
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: I don't understand why the pressure is not on those individuals.
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: I just feel like Ed is an easy target. I
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: don't even know if Ed is the right target in
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: this situation.
- 1:04:58Speaker 24: You know who said exactly that? I don't know. Do
- 1:05:00Speaker 24: we have time to play the audio? Aaron, I believe
- 1:05:03Speaker 24: his name is Aaron Lowe. I'm saying the wrong name.
- 1:05:05Speaker 24: I'll get it right. But one of the openers that
- 1:05:06Speaker 24: dropped out, he said exactly that. Let's take a listen
- 1:05:08Speaker 24: to Eric Sharon. Eric Sharon opener act.
- 1:05:12Speaker 16: I think yous are all focusing on the wrong person here.
- 1:05:16Speaker 16: All I keep hearing is Ed Sheeran this, Ed Sheeran that.
- 1:05:19Speaker 16: When yous really should be focusing on the likes of
- 1:05:21Speaker 16: Robert Kraft. And I do think that Macklemore shouldn't have
- 1:05:23Speaker 16: been pulled off the tour. I haven't had a chance
- 1:05:25Speaker 16: to f * * * ing talk to Ed too much.
- 1:05:26Speaker 16: But I fully believe he knows that was a mistake.
- 1:05:29Speaker 16: So look who's on the f * * * ing line-up, yeah?
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: Bioga. The most pro-Palestine group out there.
- 1:05:33Speaker 7: F * * * ing Macklemore.
- 1:05:34Speaker 9: Me.
- 1:05:34Speaker 16: Everyone knows my f * * * ing stance on Palestine.
- 1:05:37Speaker 16: If Ed Sheeran was a f * * * ing Zionist,
- 1:05:38Speaker 16: why would he have all these f * * *
- 1:05:39Speaker 16: ing people on the f * * * ing... It
- 1:05:41Speaker 16: was human f * * * ing error. You should
- 1:05:44Speaker 16: be using this opportunity to plaster Robert Kraft's face everywhere.
- 1:05:48Speaker 16: Someone who tried to shut down free speech. That's what
- 1:05:51Speaker 16: you should be using your energy on.
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: Not f * * * ing Ed Sheeran.
- 1:05:55Speaker 24: That was Aaron Rowe.
- 1:05:56Speaker 9: Aaron Rowe.
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: Who was that again? Aaron Rowe.
- 1:05:58Speaker 24: So he was one of the opening acts on the
- 1:05:59Speaker 24: original tour that withdrew when Macklemore was pulled off.
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: Well, I agree with him 100%.
- 1:06:04Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:06:07Speaker 7: 100%.
- 1:06:07Speaker 6: I just feel like the energy directed towards Ed is.
- 1:06:10Speaker 4: Pointless.
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
- 1:06:12Speaker 24: I don't know if I would have made that statement, though.
- 1:06:14Speaker 24: I don't think he can win in this situation.
- 1:06:16Speaker 5: So what Ed said, now, is Ed going to be
- 1:06:18Speaker 5: banned from different venues.
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: Too, from what he said?
- 1:06:22Speaker 24: Well, that I see, the tour is set to continue.
- 1:06:25Speaker 24: I think the way that he posed it, though, he
- 1:06:27Speaker 24: talked about both sides.
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: Both sides, yeah, that's what I'm saying.
- 1:06:30Speaker 24: But the issue comes when you take one side or
- 1:06:32Speaker 24: the other.
- 1:06:33Speaker 2: And I don't understand why people can't have empathy for
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: it all. Like, it's 20,000 innocent kids that were killed
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: In Palestine.
- 1:06:41Speaker 6: There is no side to take on that. That's wrong.
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: October 7th was wrong.
- 1:06:46Speaker 24: Ed said he's losing friends and family behind this.
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: I saw people say Ed was making this about him.
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: He was attacked personally. If you are attacked personally, you're
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: going to respond personally.
- 1:07:00Speaker 24: Yeah, I mean, look, the tour is set to continue.
- 1:07:03Speaker 24: There were people there that were protesting outside. They said
- 1:07:05Speaker 24: they bought tickets and refunded them. But there were also
- 1:07:07Speaker 24: people inside who stayed and enjoyed the music.
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: You look jam-packed to me.
- 1:07:11Speaker 13: Yeah, yep.
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: You look sold out to me.
- 1:07:12Speaker 12: Ed Sheeran.
- 1:07:13Speaker 24: Ed Sheeran is Ed Sheeran.
- 1:07:14Speaker 6: You know, that's my guy.
- 1:07:17Speaker 24: Last year he was like... Yeah, like number three top
- 1:07:20Speaker 24: earning concert act of the millennial in 2024. Like people
- 1:07:23Speaker 24: are acting like because of, I don't know, whatever.
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: I believe the guy, what was the guy named?
- 1:07:27Speaker 9: Aaron Rowe.
- 1:07:27Speaker 6: Aaron Rowe, yeah. I agree with what he said, 100%.
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:07:31Speaker 7: All right.
- 1:07:31Speaker 24: Yep, that was the latest for the hour. When we
- 1:07:33Speaker 24: come back in the next latest, we are going to
- 1:07:35Speaker 24: have a conversation about Jhene Aiko and celebrate her because
- 1:07:39Speaker 24: she just did something major. We're going to talk about it.

- 1:07:59Speaker 1: Word up.
- 1:08:00Speaker 24: What you was saying to them?
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: I said to him... Oh, my goodness. I said, what
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: did I say?
- 1:08:07Speaker 12: We're about to lose this.
- 1:08:09Speaker 22: No, no.
- 1:08:09Speaker 6: Because I'm just concerned.
- 1:08:10Speaker 2: I'm like, yo, if y'all know all of this information
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: and people are stealing information, don't y'all think y'all need
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: to be talking to people a little bit.
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: More as opposed to just So they're not bad. I
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: think he's coming up here this week.
- 1:08:20Speaker 2: And that's what he said. He said, I'm coming up
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: in two weeks and I'm going to tell my story.
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: I got my identity story. This week or next week.
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: How old is he? Older guy, younger guy?
- 1:08:27Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 1:08:28Speaker 9: Okay.
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: All right. Donkey of the Day. Who you giving that
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: donkey to, man?
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: Donkey of the Day is going to... I was about
- 1:08:35Speaker 2: to say Earth, Wind & Fire, but no, it's going
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: to the Hutchinson Funeral Home in Detroit.
- 1:08:39Speaker 9: What?
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: Can you put that song back up?
- 1:08:43Speaker 2: We need the Hutchinson Funeral Home in Detroit to come
- 1:08:45Speaker 2: to the front of the congregation. I am disgusted by
- 1:08:47Speaker 2: what y'all did to the Moore family and whoever the
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: family was with the other woman y'all.
- 1:08:52Speaker 6: Tried to use.
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: Damn, that's disgusting.
- 1:08:54Speaker 5: Cover your mouth. Can you play Earth, Wind, and Fire
- 1:08:56Speaker 5: when we come back out? It's the breakfast of the morning.
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: It's time for Donkey of the Day. There's a bunch
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: of donkeys out here in the street. Call Donkey of
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: the Day. It really caught me off guard. We live
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: a life where we bite our tongue based off who
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: we may offend.
- 1:09:10Speaker 6: We never would say anything.
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: Give it to him! Give it to him!
- 1:09:14Speaker 6: You are a donkey.
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: That is why Charlemagne is here.
- 1:09:18Speaker 11: Ha ha ha!
- 1:09:20Speaker 6: Some donkey of the days just saw themselves.
- 1:09:22Speaker 4: On The Breakfast Club.
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: Okay, Chalamet, we've been giving donkey of the day to today.
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: Well, donkey of the day for Monday, September 21st. Do
- 1:09:28Speaker 2: you remember?
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: The 21st night of September. Okay, salute to Earth, Wind,
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: and Fire. Drop on the clues bombs for Earth, Wind,
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: and Fire.
- 1:09:34Speaker 4: Damn it.
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: On this 21st of September donkey of the day goes
- 1:09:38Speaker 2: to the Hutchinson Funeral Home in Detroit, Michigan.
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: Let me tell you something.
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: There are certain businesses where mistakes are simply part of
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: doing business, okay? I'm in the fast food business, all right?
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: My wife and I, we own a couple of Crystal
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: franchises in South Carolina. Sometimes you go to Crystal, order
- 1:09:53Speaker 2: an avocado sausage egg cheese toast sandwich. You might say
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: you don't want cheese because you're lactose intolerant like me.
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: And guess what? You bite into it and it's cheese.
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: Mistakes happen.
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: You might go to Starbucks, tell them almond milk. They
- 1:10:06Speaker 2: might give you oat milk. Amazon might drop your package
- 1:10:09Speaker 2: off at the wrong house. There are certain businesses where
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: mistakes are simply part of doing business. OK, but there
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: are certain businesses where you cannot get the order wrong
- 1:10:17Speaker 2: under any circumstances.
- 1:10:19Speaker 6: And a funeral home should be at the top of
- 1:10:21Speaker 6: that list, okay?
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, according to the family of 61-year-old Kimberly Moore,
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: drop on the clues bombs for the Moore family.
- 1:10:29Speaker 6: RIP to Kimberly Moore.
- 1:10:31Speaker 1: They went to Hutchinson Funeral Home in Detroit to view
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: their mother before her funeral, and their mama wasn't there.
- 1:10:37Speaker 6: Let's go to ABC7 for the report, please.
- 1:10:39Speaker 18: It's a lady in there with our mother's dress on
- 1:10:42Speaker 18: and her hair on and her makeup on.
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: Everything. And it's not our mother.
- 1:10:48Speaker 15: Byron Moore and his siblings prepared to say their final
- 1:10:51Speaker 15: goodbyes to their mother, Kimberly K. Moore, who died earlier
- 1:10:54Speaker 15: this month. But right before Moore's viewing Friday, her daughter,
- 1:10:58Speaker 15: Bianca Robinson, says she made a disturbing discovery.
- 1:11:01Speaker 24: When I came to put my mom nails and her
- 1:11:04Speaker 24: lashes on, he was asking me, like, do you think,
- 1:11:07Speaker 24: is this your mom?
- 1:11:08Speaker 26: And I'm looking like, how is this?
- 1:11:09Speaker 9: You should know.
- 1:11:10Speaker 24: So he unzipped the bag. And when he unzipped the bag, I,
- 1:11:13Speaker 24: you know, looked at the toe. And I was like,
- 1:11:15Speaker 24: it's not a mole on her toe. And I turned
- 1:11:18Speaker 24: around and I looked at him. I said, this is
- 1:11:19Speaker 24: not my mama, sir.
- 1:11:20Speaker 9: And he said, I'm so sorry.
- 1:11:23Speaker 24: Your mom must have been cremated when she first got
- 1:11:26Speaker 24: here because it was two ladies that was here that
- 1:11:28Speaker 24: came in when your mom came in. And we must
- 1:11:31Speaker 24: have cremated her. I said, but how do you make
- 1:11:33Speaker 24: a mistake like that?
- 1:11:34Speaker 10: They said that the toe tag, they think the toe
- 1:11:36Speaker 10: tag got wet and it fell off.
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: And that's how her body got mixed up with somebody
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: else's body. Can we get some type of comment?
- 1:11:42Speaker 9: I mean, the family is looking.
- 1:11:43Speaker 11: We're investigating. I'm not on camera. No comment.
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: Joseph Hutchison Jr.
- 1:11:49Speaker 15: the funeral home's vice president of operations, offered no further
- 1:11:52Speaker 15: detail and directed me to his public relations spokesman.
- 1:11:55Speaker 11: No, my comment is that you can contact my own associates.
- 1:11:59Speaker 6: They'll be handling everything.
- 1:12:01Speaker 15: Has the family been addressed, at least in some way?
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: That's my comment. Hutchison Funeral Home, what up, though? Seriously,
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: what up, though?
- 1:12:08Speaker 2: Y'all had somebody else's mama cosplaying as somebody else's mama.
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: The woman was wearing their mother's dressing wig. This isn't Amazon.
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: You can't send me the wrong mama and tell me
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: to print out a return label, okay? That's not how
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: this works. Hutchinson Funeral Home, did y'all really think you
- 1:12:24Speaker 2: were going to get this off? I just don't understand
- 1:12:27Speaker 2: why it's so hard for people to do the right thing, okay?
- 1:12:30Speaker 2: You knew, you know, which wig belonged to Kimberly, okay?
- 1:12:35Speaker 2: You knew which casket was supposed to be Kimberly's, but
- 1:12:37Speaker 2: somehow the only thing y'all didn't have was Miss Kimberly?
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: Salute to the Moore family for not burning Hutchinson Funeral
- 1:12:45Speaker 2: Home down to the ground. And y'all playing with somebody else, Mama, too,
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: because Harpo, who is this woman you trying to tell
- 1:12:51Speaker 2: me is my mama when I know it's not? The
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: disrespect for black bodies, even in death, is crazy. OK,
- 1:12:58Speaker 2: you heard the news report just now. Kimberly's daughter, Bianca Robinson,
- 1:13:02Speaker 2: said when she arrived to put on her mother's nail
- 1:13:05Speaker 2: and lashes, a mortuary worker allegedly asked her, is this
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: your mama? What the F you mean is this my mama?
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: You tell me. Okay, that's why I'm barter than you.
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: If I have to identify whether that's my mother after
- 1:13:18Speaker 2: you've already prepared the body, what exactly are we paying
- 1:13:20Speaker 2: you for?
- 1:13:21Speaker 6: Okay, see what I'm saying.
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: Imagine going to pick your child up from.
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: Daycare and the teacher walks out with some random kid asking,
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: is this yours? OK, I'm trying to tell you some
- 1:13:32Speaker 2: professions allow uncertainty. Funeral director isn't one of them. I
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: don't want to hear probably. I don't want to hear
- 1:13:37Speaker 2: we think. I don't want to hear looks like this
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: is my mother. We talking about, OK, there should be
- 1:13:42Speaker 2: more identity verification at a funeral home than there is
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: at TSA. And look, we all make mistakes, but there
- 1:13:48Speaker 2: are some mistakes, OK, that you just cannot make.
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:13:51Speaker 2: They got this order completely wrong. Miss Kimberly was supposed
- 1:13:55Speaker 2: to be cremated after the funeral. So her loved ones
- 1:13:58Speaker 2: can see her one last time. But the funeral home
- 1:14:00Speaker 2: told her they may have. They told the family they
- 1:14:02Speaker 2: may have already cremated Kimberly. OK, and I forgot this part.
- 1:14:08Speaker 2: Hutchinson Funeral Home didn't even have her ashes. Why do
- 1:14:11Speaker 2: we love traumatizing people? OK, I'm already dealing with my
- 1:14:14Speaker 2: mother being dead.
- 1:14:15Speaker 6: I'm grieving.
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: I'm confused.
- 1:14:16Speaker 6: I'm exhausted.
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: And now I have to deal with walking in a
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: funeral home, seeing.
- 1:14:19Speaker 6: My mother's wig. Her dress, but not her face.
- 1:14:23Speaker 2: And somewhere there's another family who also has questions, too,
- 1:14:26Speaker 2: because once again, whose mother was wearing Kimberly Moore's clothes?
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: There is no control Z for this. All right.
- 1:14:34Speaker 2: I keep telling you, everybody makes mistakes. Sure, everybody does.
- 1:14:38Speaker 2: But the consequences of mistakes depend on what you do
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: for a living. If a funeral home allegedly cremates the
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: wrong person, there is no fix. Okay, certain jobs require
- 1:14:48Speaker 2: a level of attention that borders on damn near paranoia.
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: Pilots, surgeons, pharmacists, police, okay? Funeral directors. My bad isn't
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: enough when y'all make a mistake, okay?
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: Kimberly's Moore family trusted this funeral home with something priceless.
- 1:15:04Speaker 6: Okay, not expensive, priceless. Their mother.
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: And I hope every.
- 1:15:08Speaker 2: Funeral home in America sees this story and spends today
- 1:15:12Speaker 2: checking every damn procedure they have so mistakes like this
- 1:15:15Speaker 2: don't happen again. Because some places cannot get the order wrong,
- 1:15:20Speaker 2: and a funeral home is absolutely one of them, okay?
- 1:15:24Speaker 2: You can't lose somebody's mama after they've already lost their mama.
- 1:15:28Speaker 2: Please give the Hutchinson Funeral Home the biggest hee-haw.
- 1:15:35Speaker 6: In a crazy world we live in, guys.
- 1:15:36Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: And girls. Men and women. Theys and thems.
- 1:15:41Speaker 4: So crazy.
- 1:15:41Speaker 12: My family, when it plays up, ain't no way.
- 1:15:44Speaker 6: I mean, they are more. Y'all might be related.
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: You got family in Detroit?
- 1:15:49Speaker 22: I don't know.
- 1:15:49Speaker 12: But what up, though, if so? That's crazy.
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: All right.
- 1:15:53Speaker 5: Well, thank you for that donkey today. Now, when we
- 1:15:55Speaker 5: come back, we have a youth pastor, Pastor Luke.
- 1:15:59Speaker 7: Oh, man.
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: Katrina Tillman will be joining us. They have a new book.
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: He has a new book called Finding God Every Day.
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: Nine years old, right?
- 1:16:05Speaker 6: Nine years old.
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: Remember, he was on Jennifer Hudson's show last week. Tyler
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: Perry surprised him on Jennifer Hudson's show because he's a
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: big Tyler Perry fan. But I also remember his mom
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: called in here to promote his book. And so we
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: was like, you know what? Why don't y'all pull up?
- 1:16:17Speaker 13: You know?
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: And they did.
- 1:16:18Speaker 5: So we're going to talk to them next. So don't
- 1:16:19Speaker 5: go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club.
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: Good morning. Good morning, everybody.
- 1:16:22Speaker 5: It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
- 1:16:25Speaker 1: We are The Breakfast Club.
- 1:16:26Speaker 5: We got a special guest, some special guests in the
- 1:16:28Speaker 5: building with us today.
- 1:16:28Speaker 11: That's right.
- 1:16:29Speaker 6: That's right.
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: We have the young man, the little brother, Luke Tillman.
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: Pastor Luke Tillman. Don't play with him. Pastor Luke Tillman.
- 1:16:35Speaker 6: You respect that man's credentials.
- 1:16:36Speaker 7: Kid Pastor Luke.
- 1:16:37Speaker 1: That's what he's called. Kid Pastor Luke. That's right.
- 1:16:39Speaker 7: Welcome.
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: And his mother, Katrina. And his mama, Katrina. What up, though?
- 1:16:43Speaker 26: We from Detroit.
- 1:16:44Speaker 1: What up, though? What up, though?
- 1:16:47Speaker 6: You know, Luke, he got a new book, Finding God,
- 1:16:49Speaker 6: every day.
- 1:16:50Speaker 2: And, you know, we saw him on Jennifer Hudson's show
- 1:16:52Speaker 2: this week, getting surprised by Tyler Perry. But, you know,
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: y'all actually called up here just to shout this book out.
- 1:16:57Speaker 9: Yes.
- 1:16:58Speaker 6: And I'm like, man, pull up.
- 1:17:00Speaker 26: Oh, man, we are just so honored and blessed to
- 1:17:02Speaker 26: be here. Luke is so excited.
- 1:17:06Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:17:06Speaker 26: We caught, listen, we know the breakfast club is where
- 1:17:08Speaker 26: it's at.
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: Yes, ma'am.
- 1:17:09Speaker 26: And this is where our community is at. This is
- 1:17:12Speaker 26: where our people is at. And so at the time
- 1:17:14Speaker 26: when I called, uh, Luke book was getting ready to launch.
- 1:17:18Speaker 26: It's available now, but, um, he is trying to be
- 1:17:21Speaker 26: on the New York times bestsellers list. And when we
- 1:17:24Speaker 26: had our meetings at the, you know, developing a book
- 1:17:28Speaker 26: and Luke was very involved in this project, um, He
- 1:17:32Speaker 26: they asked him, you know, some of the upper people
- 1:17:36Speaker 26: asked him, you know, what is some of your goals
- 1:17:39Speaker 26: with the book? And he told him, he said, Mommy,
- 1:17:41Speaker 26: what do people with books get? I know music people
- 1:17:44Speaker 26: get the Grammys. What is the award for books? And
- 1:17:47Speaker 26: I said, well, I don't know if they got awards.
- 1:17:48Speaker 26: I know they got this list called the New York Times.
- 1:17:50Speaker 26: But he said, well, I want to be on that.
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: That's right. I said, well, OK.
- 1:17:54Speaker 26: Well, when they heard it, they said that he was
- 1:17:56Speaker 26: being too innocent. Don't you think that's a little ambitious?
- 1:17:59Speaker 26: And me being, we're, we're, I'm a mom of four boys.
- 1:18:02Speaker 26: We have four boys. Um, the mama bear came out
- 1:18:06Speaker 26: of me and I said, um, it's okay that he's
- 1:18:08Speaker 26: being ambitious. We serve an ambitious God. And if that's
- 1:18:12Speaker 26: the goal that he has for himself, then we going
- 1:18:15Speaker 26: to do everything we can to make that goal a reality.
- 1:18:19Speaker 26: And so my husband, he's a pastor. He's been in
- 1:18:22Speaker 26: touch with a lot of his pastors across the country. Um,
- 1:18:26Speaker 26: Different organizations and groups like Lockerrie National Baptist Convention. They've
- 1:18:31Speaker 26: been allowing us to go before these massive groups to
- 1:18:34Speaker 26: put the call out regarding this book. And so I said,
- 1:18:37Speaker 26: you know what? On the way to school, we'd be
- 1:18:39Speaker 26: listening sometimes because everything is for the baby ears. But
- 1:18:44Speaker 26: I said, we're going to call. And I called. And
- 1:18:47Speaker 26: the honest truth is, and everybody... Eddie, I think his
- 1:18:50Speaker 26: name is Eddie.
- 1:18:51Speaker 11: That's Eddie.
- 1:18:51Speaker 26: He can tell you. I called and the call dropped.
- 1:18:54Speaker 7: Wow.
- 1:18:55Speaker 26: I called again, kept calling, kept calling, kept calling, like
- 1:18:58Speaker 26: 30 minutes straight, kept calling and got through. I said,
- 1:19:01Speaker 26: this is nothing but God. Because y'all lines be busy.
- 1:19:04Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 1:19:06Speaker 26: We got through, told y'all about the book, and now
- 1:19:08Speaker 26: we here in person.
- 1:19:09Speaker 9: What up, though?
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: It's incredible.
- 1:19:11Speaker 2: I didn't know his dad was a pastor, but how
- 1:19:14Speaker 2: do you distinguish between nurturing his gift and putting adult
- 1:19:18Speaker 2: expectations on it?
- 1:19:20Speaker 26: We are very intentional about making sure Luke has a childhood.
- 1:19:28Speaker 26: He has three older brothers, and so they keep him
- 1:19:31Speaker 26: very humble and very grounded. But Luke, the word says,
- 1:19:36Speaker 26: and a child shall lead them. We are here because
- 1:19:39Speaker 26: we listen to our children. And anytime I get asked
- 1:19:44Speaker 26: about being his mom, that's one thing I always tell parents.
- 1:19:47Speaker 26: God has given you this gift in a child. Our
- 1:19:51Speaker 26: job is to study it, cultivate it, develop it, and
- 1:19:54Speaker 26: protect it. And that's what me and my husband have
- 1:19:57Speaker 26: been doing with all four of our boys. And so
- 1:19:59Speaker 26: with Luke, he was sent here like this. He has
- 1:20:04Speaker 26: an anointing on him that has reached the masses far
- 1:20:10Speaker 26: beyond anything we could think of. He went viral for
- 1:20:13Speaker 26: baptizing his Paw Patrol stuff.
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: I love it.
- 1:20:17Speaker 26: And that was just me just putting it out there.
- 1:20:19Speaker 26: I didn't tag anybody. That was the Lord just breathing
- 1:20:21Speaker 26: on it. And then next thing you know, producer from
- 1:20:25Speaker 26: Jennifer Hudson, we were very involved. My husband was very
- 1:20:28Speaker 26: involved in the Flint water crisis. Crazy story about that.
- 1:20:32Speaker 26: She interviewed us six years prior before, Luke wasn't even here.
- 1:20:37Speaker 26: In the video where he's baptizing his Paw Patrol stuff in, well,
- 1:20:40Speaker 26: you don't see me, you only hear my voice. She
- 1:20:43Speaker 26: remembered interviewing me from six years prior to that. Because
- 1:20:47Speaker 26: of my voice. And said, I see this little boy
- 1:20:49Speaker 26: going viral, is this your son? I'm a new producer
- 1:20:53Speaker 26: on the Jennifer Hudson show. I would love for Luke
- 1:20:56Speaker 26: to be my first talent.
- 1:20:57Speaker 9: Wow.
- 1:20:58Speaker 26: And since then, he's been on there now six times.
- 1:21:02Speaker 26: He premiered on the show this week with Tyler Perry.
- 1:21:05Speaker 26: So everything that has happened has been very organic. Like
- 1:21:09Speaker 26: me calling in here and now we're here. Everything has
- 1:21:11Speaker 26: been organic and Luke has just ushered us. To what
- 1:21:17Speaker 26: it is.
- 1:21:17Speaker 2: Let me ask you a question, Luke. When you talk
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: to God, what do you actually say?
- 1:21:22Speaker 8: Well, when I talk to God, I ask him to
- 1:21:24Speaker 8: open up my ears so that I can hear what
- 1:21:26Speaker 8: he's telling me.
- 1:21:27Speaker 6: Yes.
- 1:21:28Speaker 8: And when he tells me to do something, I first
- 1:21:31Speaker 8: tell my parents and then they can tell me if
- 1:21:34Speaker 8: it's God or not. Because one day my mom was
- 1:21:38Speaker 8: watching this video, and it was about this pastor. And
- 1:21:44Speaker 8: he thought that God told him to open up this church,
- 1:21:47Speaker 8: but it was actually the devil. And what touched me
- 1:21:49Speaker 8: about that video was that he said that sometimes something
- 1:21:55Speaker 8: can be good, but it's not always God.
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: That's right.
- 1:21:58Speaker 15: Yes.
- 1:21:58Speaker 8: So first I go to my parents. I go to
- 1:22:02Speaker 8: my dad because, you know, he's the pastor. He's the
- 1:22:04Speaker 8: leader of the house. That's how it all happens.
- 1:22:08Speaker 12: How do his brothers receive him as the kid pastor Luke?
- 1:22:12Speaker 26: Like I said, they keep him very humble. They keep
- 1:22:15Speaker 26: him very humble. Ezra, Micah, and Isaac, they are very
- 1:22:22Speaker 26: protective of their brother. Funny thing is when we knew
- 1:22:27Speaker 26: that he was going on the Jennifer Hudson show the
- 1:22:29Speaker 26: first time, you know.
- 1:22:31Speaker 24: We grew up on the Cosby. So we had a
- 1:22:33Speaker 24: family meeting. We called all the boys into the room,
- 1:22:36Speaker 24: sat them down, and I just knew it.
- 1:22:38Speaker 11: I knew it.
- 1:22:39Speaker 26: I knew that this was more than just him going
- 1:22:41Speaker 26: on the show. I knew it was like this is
- 1:22:44Speaker 26: going to be the start of something. And we told him.
- 1:22:48Speaker 26: I read the scripture of Cain and Abel, and I
- 1:22:51Speaker 26: told him we ain't got no place or no room
- 1:22:53Speaker 26: for no jealousy. That God has given us this gift.
- 1:22:57Speaker 26: And here's the thing. Each one of you have a light.
- 1:23:00Speaker 26: It doesn't mean that because his light is.
- 1:23:04Speaker 26: Attracting this type of, you know, notoriety doesn't diminish your light,
- 1:23:09Speaker 26: but whatever door he walked through, we move as a unit,
- 1:23:12Speaker 26: the Tillman family, we move as a unit. So whatever
- 1:23:15Speaker 26: door he walked through, we are walking through it. But
- 1:23:18Speaker 26: if it's God leading him to open a door for
- 1:23:21Speaker 26: us to walk through it, then that's what it will be.
- 1:23:23Speaker 26: And your gifts and your talents could be, could be
- 1:23:27Speaker 26: in addition to this, or it could be separate from it. But,
- 1:23:30Speaker 26: As a mom of four boys, you know, I'm always
- 1:23:33Speaker 26: being conscious of developing and nurturing them. But they're very
- 1:23:38Speaker 26: supportive of their brother. And they wanted to be here,
- 1:23:40Speaker 26: but they're in school. They're very supportive of him.
- 1:23:43Speaker 2: Luke, do you remember the first time you felt like
- 1:23:45Speaker 2: God was actually talking back to you?
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: Not with a voice, but with just something you felt
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: inside of you.
- 1:23:50Speaker 8: Yeah, when I was two or three.
- 1:23:53Speaker 5: Wow.
- 1:23:54Speaker 8: Two or three, I had a dream that God has
- 1:23:59Speaker 8: called me to preach. Like my mom said, I have
- 1:24:03Speaker 8: a lot of visions. So we live in Florida, and
- 1:24:08Speaker 8: before any of us even knew that, I told them that, Mom, Mom,
- 1:24:13Speaker 8: I think we're going to go to Florida.
- 1:24:15Speaker 12: Mom, Mom, let's go to Florida.
- 1:24:16Speaker 8: Come on, come on. And then now we live in
- 1:24:19Speaker 8: Florida because, you know, God's grace and mercy. Mm-hmm. Yeah,
- 1:24:24Speaker 8: he just kept leading me and holding me.
- 1:24:27Speaker 5: Now, Mama, has he ever said, you know, Mom, God
- 1:24:32Speaker 5: said I want this new video game.
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: Has it ever gone ahead?
- 1:24:35Speaker 26: No, and that's the thing. It's never like in a joking...
- 1:24:40Speaker 26: Pray for him, Luke. It's never like in a joking...
- 1:24:44Speaker 26: It's never like, you know, Mom, God told me to
- 1:24:47Speaker 26: get these drawers.
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: It's never that.
- 1:24:49Speaker 26: It's always something... Like I say, he... My husband was
- 1:24:53Speaker 26: pastoring in Flint, Michigan. He wasn't even trying to relocate.
- 1:24:57Speaker 26: We weren't even considering looking at anywhere else. And I
- 1:25:01Speaker 26: got the voice memos because he would wake up and
- 1:25:03Speaker 26: be like, Mom, I had a dream that Daddy told
- 1:25:06Speaker 26: the church that we leaving. So I would voice memo
- 1:25:08Speaker 26: it so that I can document it. And then he
- 1:25:11Speaker 26: would say, we moving to Florida.
- 1:25:12Speaker 1: And I said, Florida?
- 1:25:13Speaker 26: We going to Florida? No, we moving to Florida. And we,
- 1:25:17Speaker 26: thanks to... For God, you know, he gave.
- 1:25:20Speaker 9: Him, yeah.
- 1:25:20Speaker 5: Now, what about kids in school? Like, because sometimes kids
- 1:25:23Speaker 5: in school could not be the nicest. How have they
- 1:25:25Speaker 5: dealt with some of the things that he's been preaching
- 1:25:28Speaker 5: and talking about?
- 1:25:28Speaker 1: I asked you that, Luke. How have the kids in
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: school been treating you?
- 1:25:31Speaker 9: Well.
- 1:25:31Speaker 1: Have they been understanding?
- 1:25:32Speaker 8: Well, they know because I've been to that school for
- 1:25:36Speaker 8: like four years, so they know about it, but they're
- 1:25:39Speaker 8: really used to me because when I'm at school, like,
- 1:25:43Speaker 8: it might be like just at recess that, you know,
- 1:25:46Speaker 8: I put on my preaching mode, but When I'm in school,
- 1:25:54Speaker 8: I just turn on my kid mode because I don't
- 1:25:57Speaker 8: want to take away my learning and just put it
- 1:25:59Speaker 8: all on God. You're supposed to do that, but you
- 1:26:03Speaker 8: guys understand what I mean, right?
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: Yeah, you said kid mode. What other modes you got?
- 1:26:08Speaker 8: My kid mode. Why you got to ask me questions?
- 1:26:13Speaker 9: Might have to pray for him.
- 1:26:15Speaker 5: So when you go into preaching mode, that's when you're
- 1:26:17Speaker 5: in school, you go to recess and you start talking
- 1:26:19Speaker 5: about God.
- 1:26:21Speaker 8: Sometimes I just go around singing gospel songs.
- 1:26:23Speaker 7: I love it.
- 1:26:24Speaker 6: You're on that.
- 1:26:26Speaker 12: Do the kids join in with you? How do they
- 1:26:27Speaker 12: respond to that?
- 1:26:28Speaker 8: No, because they go to those mega churches. They ain't
- 1:26:32Speaker 8: like that Baptist church. So they don't know what songs
- 1:26:36Speaker 8: I be singing.
- 1:26:37Speaker 26: You be singing them hymns, them old school hymns.
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: I hear that. You think grown-ups make Christianity more complicated
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: than it needs to.
- 1:26:43Speaker 21: Be, Luke?
- 1:26:43Speaker 8: Yeah, because, you know, they teach them like their generation,
- 1:26:49Speaker 8: but that's how I didn't understand because, you know, They
- 1:26:54Speaker 8: teach them, their generation, how, you know, pastor would say,
- 1:26:58Speaker 8: grab your neighbor by the hand, high five your neighbor.
- 1:27:01Speaker 8: And I'm like, what is that? So, yeah, so they
- 1:27:05Speaker 8: make it hard for kids. So that's why I wrote
- 1:27:08Speaker 8: this book. So then, like I said, so that I
- 1:27:11Speaker 8: can have a bigger relationship with God.
- 1:27:12Speaker 26: You can relate to it.
- 1:27:13Speaker 8: Yeah, I can relate to what they're going through in
- 1:27:16Speaker 8: their life so that I can make it better.
- 1:27:20Speaker 5: A question that passed in the back, brother. You know,
- 1:27:22Speaker 5: we talk about church all the time. Pastor Ezra. Ezra L.
- 1:27:25Speaker 26: Tillman, First Baptist Church, Piney Grove.
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: Yes, ma'am.
- 1:27:28Speaker 5: We talk about church sometimes, and I feel like people
- 1:27:30Speaker 5: have gotten away from church a lot because they feel
- 1:27:32Speaker 5: like church is a place of, it doesn't feel like
- 1:27:35Speaker 5: community anymore, right? It feels like people are asking for things.
- 1:27:38Speaker 5: You see these, sometimes you see these. These pastors asking for,
- 1:27:42Speaker 5: I need money for my Cadillac and I need money
- 1:27:44Speaker 5: for my private jet and I need money for this.
- 1:27:47Speaker 5: But I feel like even with your son being involved
- 1:27:49Speaker 5: so much, it feels more of.
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: A community where you're bringing in kids.
- 1:27:53Speaker 5: I remember the days when grandma used to have us bring,
- 1:27:55Speaker 5: you know, y'all sit in the back and bring us
- 1:27:57Speaker 5: up top. It feels like that is even more with
- 1:28:00Speaker 5: your son coming in. Do you feel that as well?
- 1:28:02Speaker 6: I do.
- 1:28:02Speaker 10: I think that culture ends up. having great influence ought
- 1:28:07Speaker 10: to have in the church when the church should be giving.
- 1:28:09Speaker 9: Example to the culture.
- 1:28:11Speaker 10: And so I'm trying to market and trying to grow
- 1:28:13Speaker 10: and trying to put, as I said, butts in the pews,
- 1:28:16Speaker 10: that whole piece was kind of lost, trying to be progressive,
- 1:28:18Speaker 10: trying to be more corporate and the actual spiritual connections
- 1:28:22Speaker 10: and relationships that came from the community has evolved with
- 1:28:25Speaker 10: people moving out, et cetera. And then people has that
- 1:28:28Speaker 10: kind of, you can have it your way model. So
- 1:28:31Speaker 10: I'm looking for something versus really coming to kind of
- 1:28:33Speaker 10: get and receive something. And so that pours out into competing,
- 1:28:38Speaker 10: and to people being disconnected, people looking for the choir,
- 1:28:42Speaker 10: good preacher, good programming, good child services. So all those
- 1:28:46Speaker 10: things kind of breaks down the whole culture of it's
- 1:28:49Speaker 10: a faith growing and there's no discipleship. So no one's
- 1:28:52Speaker 10: kind of going out trying to share that faith saying, okay,
- 1:28:55Speaker 10: you know, this is how you make it through a
- 1:28:56Speaker 10: hard time. This is how we've made it as a people.
- 1:28:58Speaker 10: It becomes more of, you know.
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: What works for you.
- 1:29:00Speaker 10: So when you take big mama out of the place
- 1:29:04Speaker 10: and you lose a model of what that direction is,
- 1:29:07Speaker 10: this is the outcome.
- 1:29:09Speaker 2: Man, it's amazing to watch y'all, man.
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: We see so much generational trauma passed down. To see
- 1:29:14Speaker 1: these generational blessings rain down on this young man, it
- 1:29:17Speaker 1: is incredible to see, bro.
- 1:29:18Speaker 6: It's incredible to see.
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: Thank y'all for joining us.
- 1:29:21Speaker 10: That's right.
- 1:29:21Speaker 12: I love and appreciate it.
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: Tell them about your church and if they're in Florida.
- 1:29:25Speaker 9: What part of Florida?
- 1:29:26Speaker 10: I'm in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida. It's a suburb before Lauderdale.
- 1:29:29Speaker 10: First Baptist Church, Piney Grove. Two services, 8 o'clock and
- 1:29:33Speaker 10: 11 o'clock. Doing some restructuring as it pertains to what
- 1:29:37Speaker 10: we're doing out for our youth to build that out.
- 1:29:40Speaker 10: You know, trying to make sure we challenge our concept
- 1:29:42Speaker 10: of Christian education, Sunday school. So it's one of those
- 1:29:45Speaker 10: things where, as you said, generationally, you got to look
- 1:29:47Speaker 10: at what core things work and how we can evolve
- 1:29:50Speaker 10: to this new generation to make sure it's meeting their
- 1:29:52Speaker 10: needs and encouraging. So We're under construction like most of
- 1:29:54Speaker 10: our traditional churches, but we are doing the work, and
- 1:29:57Speaker 10: we have beautiful people there to help us do it.
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: You know the craziest people in America come from the
- 1:30:01Speaker 2: Bronx and all of Florida, so how often do you
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: do exorcisms?
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: Well, we're not from Florida. We're from Detroit. Oh, I know,
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: but y'all in Florida. That's what I'm saying. It's different.
- 1:30:10Speaker 1: It's different. How many exorcisms do you have to do?
- 1:30:12Speaker 10: Man, I ain't on that level, man, but I'm praying.
- 1:30:15Speaker 10: And I see it.
- 1:30:16Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:30:17Speaker 4: And it's definitely warfare.
- 1:30:18Speaker 1: He's from Detroit, so he understands a little bit.
- 1:30:19Speaker 9: He's from Detroit, so he understands a little bit.
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: He's from Flint.
- 1:30:21Speaker 4: He can read the room.
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:30:23Speaker 6: He can read the room.
- 1:30:24Speaker 10: And it's that type of power you need because those
- 1:30:26Speaker 10: things exist.
- 1:30:27Speaker 6: It's real.
- 1:30:27Speaker 9: It's real.
- 1:30:28Speaker 4: It's deep-rooted.
- 1:30:29Speaker 10: It's in the grain. And you definitely better know the
- 1:30:32Speaker 10: Lord dealing with that kind of work.
- 1:30:33Speaker 11: That's right.
- 1:30:34Speaker 9: I love that.
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: That kid passed it. They jump on you.
- 1:30:37Speaker 12: That's right.
- 1:30:37Speaker 1: Tell them how they can get your book.
- 1:30:39Speaker 8: Well, you can get it basically everywhere books are sold.
- 1:30:42Speaker 8: You can get it from... Amazon, Mahogany Books, Barnes and Nobles.
- 1:30:48Speaker 26: Everywhere books are sold. You all support this book. Get
- 1:30:51Speaker 26: them on the New York Times bestseller.

- 1:31:51Speaker 24: Jhene Aiko, she scored her first number one on the
- 1:31:54Speaker 24: album's charts with West Side Whimsy. So West Side Whimsy
- 1:31:58Speaker 24: debuted at number one on Billboard 200. And this is
- 1:32:00Speaker 24: her first time ever in her career doing this, which
- 1:32:04Speaker 24: is crazy because we know that Jhene Aiko has had
- 1:32:06Speaker 24: some pretty big records. She came close to doing this
- 1:32:10Speaker 24: before with her previous studio album, Chalumbo. How do you
- 1:32:13Speaker 24: say Chalumbo? Chalumbo? That was released in 2020. It debuted
- 1:32:17Speaker 24: at number two and then later earned an album of
- 1:32:20Speaker 24: the year nomination at the Grammys. But yeah.
- 1:32:21Speaker 12: Congratulations.
- 1:32:24Speaker 1: That's crazy. First number one album. She don't have no
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: single out right now. She does.

- 1:32:30Speaker 5: this week. It's called So Good featuring Kendrick Lamar.
- 1:32:33Speaker 1: The Radio Blazer?
- 1:32:33Speaker 24: I don't know if I've heard that on the radio yet.
- 1:32:36Speaker 2: I don't know if I've heard Jenea's albums because we
- 1:32:38Speaker 2: was going back and forth listening to Jenea albums. And
- 1:32:41Speaker 2: Erykah Badu and the Alchemists album. Like literally one day
- 1:32:44Speaker 2: at the house, it was going back and forth. So
- 1:32:46Speaker 2: I didn't even know she had a single album.
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: Yeah.

- 1:34:45Speaker 12: last album, and at risk at all, I hear that
- 1:34:48Speaker 12: so much.
- 1:34:50Speaker 1: But Spinnett should have been in the category. Yeah, he
- 1:34:51Speaker 1: definitely should have. With those 15 other artists. Absolutely. Yeah.
- 1:34:54Speaker 6: Absolutely.
- 1:34:55Speaker 24: Well, in other music conversations, the Jay-Z in 8 docuseries
- 1:34:59Speaker 24: premiered on Friday.
- 1:35:01Speaker 12: I didn't see that.
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: I've been seeing clips. I'm going to watch it this week.
- 1:35:03Speaker 24: Yeah, I tried to watch a lot of it yesterday,
- 1:35:06Speaker 24: what I didn't see at the premiere, and I fell
- 1:35:08Speaker 24: asleep watching it because Vegas kicked my behind. I watched
- 1:35:10Speaker 24: both episodes. I don't know how you had the time
- 1:35:12Speaker 24: to do that while in Vegas.
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: You mean we were sitting in the hotel room for
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: 10 hours?
- 1:35:15Speaker 24: I wasn't in the hotel room for 10 hours.
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: That was just you showing.
- 1:35:18Speaker 24: You said grow up.
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: You mean get old.
- 1:35:22Speaker 12: What you should go to Vegas and sit in the
- 1:35:24Speaker 12: hotel room for?
- 1:35:24Speaker 1: You goddamn right. What else is there to do? Me
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: and my wife got four kids.
- 1:35:28Speaker 6: We at the house.
- 1:35:29Speaker 1: We in the hotel relaxing.
- 1:35:31Speaker 24: I don't have four kids yet. But let's get into
- 1:35:33Speaker 24: the conversation. There's one clip from the second episode where
- 1:35:36Speaker 24: Jay-Z is talking about his relationship with his dad. He
- 1:35:38Speaker 24: uses the songs. to paint the picture. Let's take a
- 1:35:41Speaker 24: listen to Jay-Z and Rick Rubin on Jay-Z understanding his father.
- 1:35:44Speaker 21: The universe doesn't respond to negative energy. So if you say,
- 1:35:48Speaker 21: I don't want to be like my dad, I'm not
- 1:35:50Speaker 21: going to be like my dad, you end up being
- 1:35:52Speaker 21: exactly like your dad. As opposed to saying, I want
- 1:35:55Speaker 21: to be like this, or I want to be in
- 1:35:58Speaker 21: my child's life, and I want to be like this,
- 1:36:00Speaker 21: and I want.
- 1:36:01Speaker 6: To be a father who's attentive.
- 1:36:02Speaker 21: I was dealing with it a lot then. I met
- 1:36:05Speaker 21: my dad around Black Album. It definitely opened up the
- 1:36:08Speaker 21: idea of not running away from that feeling of rejection
- 1:36:13Speaker 21: or abandonment. I would always, like, if I get into, like,
- 1:36:16Speaker 21: any sort of relationship, never want to, like, fully be
- 1:36:19Speaker 21: vulnerable because I never want to feel that feeling that
- 1:36:23Speaker 21: I've had since a kid. And as I've grown, I've
- 1:36:26Speaker 21: had so much more understanding of my dad and who
- 1:36:29Speaker 21: he was. See him as a human being and not
- 1:36:31Speaker 21: a dad. And, like, you know, seeing it through your lens,
- 1:36:34Speaker 21: you know, it's like this is a bad dad who left.
- 1:36:37Speaker 21: But seeing it through his lens, it's way different.
- 1:36:40Speaker 2: That right there, the journey men don't talk about enough. Like,
- 1:36:42Speaker 2: we always talk about mommy issues, but what about daddy issues? Like,
- 1:36:45Speaker 2: one of my first breakthroughs in therapy was realizing I
- 1:36:47Speaker 2: was mad at my pops because he used to discipline
- 1:36:49Speaker 2: me for things he never taught me. And, you know,
- 1:36:52Speaker 2: I think that you have to have conversations with your
- 1:36:55Speaker 2: father to realize that your father was a... human before
- 1:36:59Speaker 2: he was your dad and he had his own issues.
- 1:37:01Speaker 2: And I think once you have that conversation and realize
- 1:37:03Speaker 2: things like that.
- 1:37:04Speaker 6: It'll set you. It's so free.
- 1:37:06Speaker 11: Definitely.
- 1:37:06Speaker 5: Salute to my dad. I've never had that problem. I
- 1:37:08Speaker 5: always wanted to be like my dad, like just the protective,
- 1:37:11Speaker 5: the provider, the person that he is. So I never
- 1:37:14Speaker 5: not wanted to be like my dad to this day.
- 1:37:16Speaker 5: It's like a lot of people have, they inspire to
- 1:37:19Speaker 5: be an artist or aspire to be like this rapper
- 1:37:21Speaker 5: or this basketball player.
- 1:37:22Speaker 1: I always inspired to be like pop. So yeah, Sleuth
- 1:37:24Speaker 1: the pops out there.
- 1:37:25Speaker 12: Total opposite of what we're talking about, but that's what's up.
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: I mean, but every.
- 1:37:29Speaker 24: Man's experience is different.
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: That's what he's trying to say. No, my pops was there.
- 1:37:34Speaker 24: Don't ever mock nobody for saying, my dad was there.
- 1:37:37Speaker 12: It's real pops that went into people's lives out here.
- 1:37:40Speaker 1: I'm just telling you, I just wanted to be like
- 1:37:42Speaker 1: my pops.
- 1:37:43Speaker 9: I'm just telling you my story.
- 1:37:44Speaker 1: I wanted to be like my pops.
- 1:37:45Speaker 5: Your dad didn't want you to be gay, but look
- 1:37:48Speaker 5: at you.
- 1:37:48Speaker 9: Oh, Lord.
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: It was another show.
- 1:37:54Speaker 5: And not go under the table after you said it.
- 1:37:56Speaker 5: Charlotte went right under the table. Wanted to see what

- 1:39:41Speaker 12: a lot, a lot. Because I didn't know what to
- 1:39:43Speaker 12: expect going in, so I was a little nervous, to
- 1:39:44Speaker 12: be honest with you. And then... The fact that it
- 1:39:46Speaker 12: was just fun and it was just full of people
- 1:39:49Speaker 12: just congregating. A lot of people knew me. I ran
- 1:39:52Speaker 12: into a lot of my fans. And I just, I
- 1:39:55Speaker 12: don't know, I was just very, very happy. Yeah, for
- 1:39:58Speaker 12: the whole weekend.
- 1:39:59Speaker 1: I'm glad you didn't overdo it because you can overdo Vegas.
- 1:40:01Speaker 24: I know.
- 1:40:02Speaker 1: Because there's so much going on. She did night one.

- 1:40:04Speaker 6: She did night one.
- 1:40:05Speaker 12: I overdid it night one?
- 1:40:08Speaker 6: No, you didn't.

- 1:40:12Speaker 13: No.

- 1:41:43Speaker 2: And I want to tell everybody, October 10th at the
- 1:41:46Speaker 2: Joe and Diane Bloom Wellness and Adventure Center in Newark,
- 1:41:49Speaker 2: New Jersey, is my sixth annual Mental Wealth Expo, man.

- 1:41:57Speaker 2: Ayanla Bonzant will be there.
- 1:41:59Speaker 1: Hey, lady balls.
- 1:42:02Speaker 7: Dr.
- 1:42:03Speaker 2: Jay Barnett will be there. Kiara Gaines will be there.

- 1:42:20Speaker 12: Speaking of New Jersey, September 25th, this Friday, I'll be
- 1:42:24Speaker 12: in Atlantic City, y'all, at Harrah's Resort. So make sure
- 1:42:27Speaker 12: you get your tickets for that. Showtime is 8 p.m.
- 1:42:29Speaker 12: Doors open at 7. Don't be late, y'all, because we
- 1:42:32Speaker 12: start with or without you. JessHilariousOfficial.com for tickets. I will
- 1:42:35Speaker 12: be doing meet and greet as well. Can't wait to
- 1:42:37Speaker 12: see you, Atlantic City.
- 1:42:39Speaker 1: All right, you got a positive note? I do, and
- 1:42:41Speaker 1: it comes from the Key for Success Mind Instagram page.
- 1:42:44Speaker 2: Listen, nobody cares, work harder. Okay, you're tired, so is
- 1:42:47Speaker 2: everybody else, all right? Life's unfair, welcome to the club.
- 1:42:50Speaker 2: The truth is, people don't care about your excuses. They
- 1:42:53Speaker 2: care about your results. I know that's harsh, okay?
- 1:42:55Speaker 1: But it's also freeing, because once you stop expecting sympathy,
- 1:42:58Speaker 1: you start building self-respect. Work when you don't feel like it.
- 1:43:02Speaker 1: Push when no one claps. Improve because you owe it
- 1:43:04Speaker 1: to yourself, not because someone's watching. The world doesn't stop
- 1:43:07Speaker 1: for your breakdowns. It keeps moving.
- 1:43:09Speaker 6: So what now?
- 1:43:10Speaker 2: Let it crush you or let it fuel you. You
- 1:43:12Speaker 2: get to choose. No one's going to hand you a
- 1:43:14Speaker 2: better life. You've got to earn it. So shut the noise,
- 1:43:17Speaker 2: show up, and go harder.
- 1:43:18Speaker 6: Have a great day.
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: Breakfast Club, bitches! You all finished or you all done?
- 1:43:23Speaker 4: Woke up, woke up, wake you up.
- 1:43:25Speaker 1: Wake that ass up.
- 1:43:26Speaker 4: Program your alarm to Power 105.1 on iHeartRadio.
