  Speaker 4: Jess? What's up?
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: I'm good. I've been stuck in a little freak thing.
• 0:37
  Speaker 6: I didn't know you had to scan your way out,
• 0:40
  Speaker 6: so I'm.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Beating on the door. Did your car? My car doesn't
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: work for that. No, it don't.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, mine.
• 0:44
  Speaker 7: So they do a construction, like we said the other day.
• 0:46
  Speaker 7: We've been saying this. So we have different ways of
• 0:48
  Speaker 7: getting in the building. And one of the ways, my
• 0:51
  Speaker 7: card doesn't work because I haven't updated my card, and
• 0:53
  Speaker 7: your card didn't work. I had to yell and sing.
• 0:55
  Speaker 7: She told you?
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: No, she didn't.
• 0:58
  Speaker 6: I literally was stuck in there for two minutes, just
• 1:00
  Speaker 6: beating and banging. She had her headphones on, so she
• 1:03
  Speaker 6: couldn't hear me, but she opened the.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Door for me, so I'm here.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 1:05
  Speaker 7: You don't have to make an excuse for being 30
• 1:07
  Speaker 7: seconds late.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: It's okay.
• 1:08
  Speaker 7: Nobody even noticed.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right. You just told them I was late. No,
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: you didn't. You didn't say nothing. See what I'm saying?
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: So you came in here for no reason.
• 1:15
  Speaker 7: All you had to do was act like you was
• 1:16
  Speaker 7: just putting your bag down.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: But they see us on Netflix. They see me just
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: walk in.
• 1:18
  Speaker 7: They don't know if you was behind me already.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you could have been in the hall.
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: You could have went to the bathroom.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: You could have just been doing research. You could have
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: been a whole bunch of things. Doing research is crazy.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: And don't be afraid to take the steps.
• 1:29
  Speaker 7: I take the steps.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: I take the steps every damn day.
• 1:31
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's good.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: But yeah, not today.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Not today.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: I like to know that my 48-year-old knees can still
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: do that.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, they do that.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: And it's a workout day today, too. But today's an
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: arm day anyway, though.
• 1:43
  Speaker 7: Yes, that's right. Well, let's get the show cracking. Tommy
• 1:46
  Speaker 7: Davidson will be joining us this morning.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: You know why I love this?
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Because if you are a man of a certain age,
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: a woman of a certain age, if you was born in.
• 1:54
  Speaker 7: The 1900s like us, then you, of course, know Martin.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: And you remember the classic episodes of Martin when Tommy
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Davidson was on there playing Varnell Hill. And the Varnell
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Hill show is now on Paramount +.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Eight episodes, right?
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah.

  Speaker 2: Happy birthday, Cat. Happy birthday, Cat. And congratulations to Tommy.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: He'll be joining us later. That's right.

  Speaker 1: Please, let's play some Masego.

  Speaker 3: every hip-hop and R & B station around the country.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: This one's featuring Buju.
• 2:56
  Speaker 8: Yes.

  Speaker 5: So tough.

  Speaker 2: It's the breakfast cloak of mourning.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: The segos so fire, man.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: I went to go see him last week at Radio
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: City Music Hall here in New York City. I heard.
• 3:06
  Speaker 7: He's phenomenal.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: I heard he killed it, too.
• 3:08
  Speaker 7: So to everybody, he's from Newport News, Virginia, right?
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Newport News, Virginia. Went to school out there, went to college,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: went to Old Dominion.
• 3:13
  Speaker 7: Maybe I thought he was born in Jamaica or something
• 3:14
  Speaker 7: like that.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: He's born in Kingston, but he was raised in Newport News, Virginia.
• 3:18
  Speaker 7: Yeah, he lived in Sumter for a little bit, and
• 3:20
  Speaker 7: then he moved over to Virginia. So salute to the 757.
• 3:23
  Speaker 7: I'll be out this Saturday for Cousins Festival.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Hey!
• 3:26
  Speaker 7: Salute to Clips, Pusha T, and all the Mantonio family.
• 3:29
  Speaker 7: I'll see y'all this Saturday. But let's get into it. Oh,
• 3:31
  Speaker 7: that's what Pusha coming here this week for?
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Oh.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: To talk about Cousins Festival. That's you and his festival.
• 3:35
  Speaker 7: I'm trying to figure out. I'm like, why Pusha coming
• 3:37
  Speaker 7: this week?
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Nah, it's Cousins Festival this week. He ain't coming to
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: see me. That's my cousin.
• 3:40
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Are you coming to Cousins Festival?
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: Yo, listen.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Listen, listen, listen.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Molly's birthday. Molly got to cut the grass again.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 3:45
  Speaker 10: Come on.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Hey, yo. Let's get into some front page news. What's up, Mimi?
• 3:51
  Speaker 11: Good morning, Envy. Jess Charlemagne, how y'all doing this morning?
• 3:55
  Speaker 7: Good.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: Good morning.
• 3:57
  Speaker 11: So we start this morning.
• 3:58
  Speaker 10: With new whistleblower claims about the Trump administration's plan to
• 4:02
  Speaker 10: change how mail-in ballots are being sent to voters. So
• 4:07
  Speaker 10: an anonymous federal official is warning that the Postal Service
• 4:10
  Speaker 10: system is being built to carry out that plan. They're
• 4:13
  Speaker 10: saying that it's largely rushed, it's largely untested, and it
• 4:16
  Speaker 10: could derail the midterm elections. So we talked about this
• 4:20
  Speaker 10: last week. The president wants states to provide a list
• 4:22
  Speaker 10: showing who is eligible to receive a mail-in ballot.
• 4:25
  Speaker 11: The Postal Service.
• 4:26
  Speaker 10: Would then use that new system called Federal Ballot Mail
• 4:30
  Speaker 10: Portal to check those lists and verify voters before their.
• 4:33
  Speaker 11: Ballots are mailed out.
• 4:35
  Speaker 10: But the whistleblower is raising serious concerns about what could
• 4:38
  Speaker 10: happen when that system is actually used. Now, the whistleblower
• 4:42
  Speaker 10: claims if a state sends a batch of, say, 10,000
• 4:46
  Speaker 10: ballots and one barcode, just one barcode doesn't scan or
• 4:50
  Speaker 10: one voter's information doesn't match, the entire batch could be
• 4:54
  Speaker 10: rejected and sent back to the state. So basically, one
• 4:57
  Speaker 10: bad barcode could potentially hold up thousands of barcodes. Here's
• 5:02
  Speaker 10: Mark Elias of Democratic Docket on MSN Now explaining a
• 5:07
  Speaker 10: little bit more.
• 5:08
  Speaker 11: Let's listen.
• 5:09
  Speaker 12: This idea that if a single name doesn't match, a
• 5:12
  Speaker 12: single name. then the entire batch gets rejected. The example
• 5:16
  Speaker 12: that you use of 10,000 ballots could be 100,000 ballots,
• 5:20
  Speaker 12: could be 500,000 ballots. I don't think we can see
• 5:22
  Speaker 12: this as a design flaw. I think that this is
• 5:26
  Speaker 12: actually the feature that Donald Trump has wanted. Donald Trump
• 5:30
  Speaker 12: wants a system that disenfranchises mail-in voters, not one here,
• 5:35
  Speaker 12: one there, but rather hundreds of thousands at a time.
• 5:39
  Speaker 12: And that is the system that the Postal Service wants.
• 5:42
  Speaker 12: built after it responded to his executive.
• 5:45
  Speaker 7: Order Come on, America. That's not rain. That's pee.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: OK, I've been telling you all they're going to attempt
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: to steal the midterm election for months. You don't overhaul
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: election infrastructure right before an election unless you are planning
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: to attempt to steal said election. Like states have been
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: preparing for this, you know, preparing for November for a
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: while now. Like you introduce a new complicated system like this,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: this close to an election. It absolutely increases the possibility
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: of mistakes.
• 6:12
  Speaker 7: And that's what they want.
• 6:15
  Speaker 12: Yes.
• 6:16
  Speaker 10: And they're also pointing out that this could cause millions
• 6:17
  Speaker 10: of Americans to either get their ballot late or not
• 6:20
  Speaker 10: at all. And there's also another allegation. The whistleblower claims
• 6:24
  Speaker 10: that the Postal Service, they kept building this new system
• 6:27
  Speaker 10: even after the courts blocked the new mail-in ballot rules.
• 6:31
  Speaker 10: So the Postal Service confirms that the work continued but
• 6:34
  Speaker 10: says it did not violate the court order. because the
• 6:37
  Speaker 10: system isn't actually being used to reject those ballots yet.
• 6:42
  Speaker 10: If you remember, they've been going back and forth trying
• 6:45
  Speaker 10: to block some of these rules from going into effect.
• 6:49
  Speaker 10: And so the whistleblower is just pointing out that even
• 6:52
  Speaker 10: though we've been going back and forth, courts have been
• 6:55
  Speaker 10: going back and forth, they still never stopped building this system.
• 6:59
  Speaker 10: Congressman Ted Lieu, he's also addressing the concerns. He spoke
• 7:03
  Speaker 10: at a press conference yesterday saying, On Capitol Hill, this
• 7:06
  Speaker 10: is what he had to say.
• 7:08
  Speaker 13: One of the messages I want to give the American
• 7:10
  Speaker 13: people is the tradition is going to try to suppress
• 7:13
  Speaker 13: your vote, doing the obstacles in front of you. Find
• 7:16
  Speaker 13: a way around it. If you don't get a mail-in ballot,
• 7:20
  Speaker 13: go vote in person. Make sure you vote early. If
• 7:23
  Speaker 13: you discover you're not registered to vote, well, go register
• 7:26
  Speaker 13: to vote. You can go check right now if you're
• 7:28
  Speaker 13: registered to vote. Make sure that you go vote. That's
• 7:31
  Speaker 13: the best way to stick it to the administration that's
• 7:34
  Speaker 13: trying to keep you from voting.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: I just want to tell our producers out there that,
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: you know, politicians curse nowadays, guys.
• 7:41
  Speaker 7: Jesus Christ.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: I love that.
• 7:43
  Speaker 7: This isn't your grandmother's politicians. Politicians curse.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: So you actually have to listen to the audio all
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: the way through.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: That was a hard F, too.
• 7:51
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah, on the radio.
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: I was sitting there like, yo, I hope that got
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: people's attention so now they can go F and vote.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: But it wasn't supposed to be played on the radio.
• 7:59
  Speaker 7: But, you know, it's interesting, right? We've had voter suppression issues. Forever.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: And like the Democrats only defense to voter suppression has
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: always been we got to have the largest voter turnout
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: in American history to combat it.
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: This year, you actually absolutely positively have to have the
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: largest voter turnout, which is why I don't understand why
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: Democrats are doing all this infighting. I don't care if
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: you're a Bernie Sanders, AOC Democrat. A Mondani, you know, Dr.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Abdul Saeed Democrat or Governor Josh Shapiro Democrat. They ain't
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: going to need that big ass tent to try to
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: try to stop this. This this attempt to steal the
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: midterms that Trump is going to do. Yeah.
• 8:37
  Speaker 7: But the biggest problem is we keep hearing the same
• 8:39
  Speaker 7: thing every day. two years every three years every four
• 8:42
  Speaker 7: years every year this has to be the biggest voter
• 8:45
  Speaker 7: turnout this daddy ever and people still haven't seen change
• 8:47
  Speaker 7: so they're looking at it like yeah i get up
• 8:49
  Speaker 7: off my ass i you know i miss days at
• 8:51
  Speaker 7: work i miss hours at work and i still see
• 8:53
  Speaker 7: no change.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: They've definitely seen change the last couple of years well
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: not in a good way exactly so so so that
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: should tell you something all right they've definitely seen change
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: they definitely think what happens when you sit on your
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: ass and don't show up.
• 9:06
  Speaker 10: Well, just remember that tomorrow there's another hearing that's going
• 9:09
  Speaker 10: to judge is going to decide whether these new rules
• 9:12
  Speaker 10: will continue or they will be blocked longer while this
• 9:15
  Speaker 10: battle plays out in court. But the clock is ticking.
• 9:18
  Speaker 10: Mellon ballots are supposed to go out within a few weeks.
• 9:21
  Speaker 10: Some states have already. basically start sending them out, especially
• 9:24
  Speaker 10: if you are in the military. And so all of
• 9:26
  Speaker 10: this confusion is just really hard for people. They don't
• 9:29
  Speaker 10: know what to do. If they should fill it out,
• 9:31
  Speaker 10: they shouldn't fill it out. And so we'll continue to
• 9:33
  Speaker 10: follow that.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Mimi, you're right.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: Ballots, envelopes, equipment, all the procedures for November have already started.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: So once again, you don't introduce a complicated-ass system like this,
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: this close to an election, unless you're absolutely planning to
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: steal the midterms.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: Absolutely.
• 9:52
  Speaker 11: Absolutely. All right.
• 9:53
  Speaker 10: Well, coming up at seven, we have a heartbreaking story
• 9:55
  Speaker 10: out of Ohio, a Haitian immigrant there. perhaps, you know,
• 10:02
  Speaker 10: taking his own life. We'll talk about what happened behind
• 10:05
  Speaker 10: the scenes.
• 10:06
  Speaker 7: All right. And everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
• 10:08
  Speaker 7: If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: It's the Breakfast Club.

  Speaker 3: Good morning.

  Speaker 8: That was not true.
• 10:53
  Speaker 7: Damn, Mimi.
• 10:55
  Speaker 9: I don't think that I'll pay. I'll pay $ 125 extra.

  Speaker 3: Delta not that now. That's wild.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: She's wild. I'm surprised she said American.
• 11:24
  Speaker 9: I don't like Delta. They delayed my flight five times.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: American does not do that. American will just cancel your issue.
• 11:32
  Speaker 9: No, I never have a problem with American.
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Delta and JetBlue, my favorite.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I use Delta.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: JetBlue?
• 11:39
  Speaker 9: That's because you from New York.
• 11:41
  Speaker 7: I'm not from New York.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: I'm from South Carolina.
• 11:43
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't like JetBlue. Well, JetBlue's cool.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: I'm not a JetBlue person.
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: But I heard today in the news that JetBlue is
• 11:50
  Speaker 7: starting to do first class seats now.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: It's called Blue One now, where it's first class seats.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: I thought they'd been first class. JetBlue got mint.
• 11:56
  Speaker 7: What are you talking about? No, but now it's a
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: special section. They call it Blue First.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: What do you think mint is? Men is fire.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: Men got the lay flat seat.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: My picks are Delta and United. I do like Delta
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: and United. American is very last. I love United.
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: I love United.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: No, but Toya, get back on Mimi ass. Mimi, where
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: the cheap flights? I've been looking too.
• 12:16
  Speaker 8: Listen.
• 12:18
  Speaker 10: So National Chief Flight Day, I'm sorry, Toya, National Chief
• 12:21
  Speaker 10: Flight Day was August 23rd. And so it said, you know, August,
• 12:24
  Speaker 10: what did I say, August 28th or about like that week.
• 12:28
  Speaker 16: The flights were supposed to be cheaper.
• 12:29
  Speaker 11: But we also, I guess we have to keep.
• 12:30
  Speaker 16: In mind with the gas and, you know, the economy.
• 12:34
  Speaker 16: Cheap for us.
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: I'm not worried about no gas.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: No, the plane, baby. The plane got gas.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: But you know, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday are the days
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: that if you go online, you can probably find more
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: affordable tickets.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: They've been saying that, but I've been checking.
• 12:48
  Speaker 7: No, that's true.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday for sure.
• 12:54
  Speaker 9: Love y'all.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Love you too, and safe travels.
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but no, Mimi, listen, you are right about it
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: because I'm not going to lie. I just had to
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: book like two or three, yeah, three flights, right, ahead
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: for my dates coming up in September. And it was cheaper.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: It was a couple hundred cheaper, yeah.
• 13:11
  Speaker 11: I guess it depends on where you're going, too, and
• 13:14
  Speaker 11: all of it.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: All of that depends, but they definitely were a few
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: hundred cheaper.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: I'm on JetBlue right now, right? And I just pulled
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: up the month of September. Like if I wanted, what's
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: today's date?
• 13:23
  Speaker 7: The second?
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: The second.
• 13:24
  Speaker 7: Today, the trip is like $ 337. To go where? To LA,
• 13:26
  Speaker 7: if I wanted to go.
• 13:27
  Speaker 17: One way?
• 13:27
  Speaker 10: Okay.
• 13:27
  Speaker 7: Yeah, on the 23rd, they got one for $ 179. And
• 13:29
  Speaker 7: on the 30th, they got one for $ 179.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Those are all Wednesdays.
• 13:40
  Speaker 7: The sad thing about these airlines now is it'll say $ 179,
• 13:43
  Speaker 7: but then they say $ 75 to check a bag.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but another $ 75 for this.
• 13:47
  Speaker 7: For the pick a seat, it's another $ 75. Not on JetBlue.
• 13:50
  Speaker 7: I'm going to say it. And you don't pay to
• 13:53
  Speaker 7: pick a seat on JetBlue?
• 13:54
  Speaker 11: Oh, yes, you do.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: Yes, you do.
• 13:56
  Speaker 7: If you buy a regular cheap ticket, it just says
• 13:59
  Speaker 7: standard boarding, and then you.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Pick a seat.
• 14:01
  Speaker 7: No, you can pick a seat, but you don't have
• 14:02
  Speaker 7: to pay for it on JetBlue.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: All right. Get it off your chest.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: You better stop doing that.
• 14:07
  Speaker 7: That's why I'm Dolly Parton people on your ass. You
• 14:09
  Speaker 7: just be saying that. Oh, my God, Dolly Parton people.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: On your ass? Well, on most airlines, even on Delta.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you just said put that on JetBlue.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: No, I just said even on Delta. Be sure.
• 14:17
  Speaker 7: But if you book a flight, right, and you book
• 14:18
  Speaker 7: the cheapest flight.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: There's a whole bunch of freaking flights. Yeah, you have
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: to pay for a seat. It's about $ 400 more.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: If you buy extra comfort.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no.
• 14:26
  Speaker 7: And some airlines, if you just pay for the cheapest,
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: they just they say you get your seat at the gate.
• 14:30
  Speaker 7: But if you want to pay, if you want a
• 14:31
  Speaker 7: good seat or pick where you're seated, you got to
• 14:34
  Speaker 7: pay for that. Then if you want to pay for
• 14:35
  Speaker 7: if you want to if you want to check a bag,
• 14:37
  Speaker 7: you got to pay for that. Everything you got to
• 14:39
  Speaker 7: pay for.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Yes, if you're not like mosaic or something. I'm mosaic
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: on JetBlue.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: Well, everybody's mosaic. You got to fly like. Oh, my God.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Now you're mosaic. Everybody's not mosaic.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: I'm gold on Delta.
• 14:51
  Speaker 7: I'm gold on Delta too, baby.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: I'm diamond on Delta, guys. Oh, damn. What's the one
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: right below that?

  Speaker 2: No, I'm platinum. Yeah, he gold. Leave him over there. Yeah,
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: I'm coming up.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: I'm right up. I definitely fly JetBlue more than I

  Speaker 1: fly it.

  Speaker 7: Myrtle Beach, okay. What's up, brother?
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: I'm just on an event, man. I lost my mother
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: about a year ago. Sorry. She was in a nursing home.
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: Appreciate that.
• 15:52
  Speaker 15: She was in a nursing home, so he had, like,
• 15:53
  Speaker 15: nursing home neglect. She had a hole so big in
• 15:55
  Speaker 15: her back, I could put my fist in it and
• 15:57
  Speaker 15: open my hand under her skin.
• 15:59
  Speaker 7: That's horrible, my brother.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Damn.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry you had to go through.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: That, man.
• 16:02
  Speaker 15: We had a nursing home in Somerville, and we didn't
• 16:04
  Speaker 15: find out that she had a hole in her back.
• 16:06
  Speaker 15: until she was on her deathbed.
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: But my brother, you know, you don't have to answer
• 16:10
  Speaker 7: this if you want. How did she get a hole
• 16:11
  Speaker 7: in her back?
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: From being neglected. They wasn't cleaning her properly.
• 16:15
  Speaker 7: Oh, my God. How did the hole develop is what
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: I'm saying.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Because her body was decaying. Like, she was.
• 16:19
  Speaker 15: Her body was decaying and all the feces and the urine.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: And it just opened up.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: That's horrible, man.
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: Bigger and bigger.
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: And it usually starts with bed sores. Yeah, and they
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: wasn't tending to her properly.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: I'm so sorry.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this happened. She was in a nursing home in Somerville.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: I hope you're suing that nursing home. Absolutely. What the hell?
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: Oh, we got that. We got that. Me and my sister,
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: you know, lost two sisters and then we lost our mother.
• 16:45
  Speaker 8: Damn.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: I'm so sorry.
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: Within the last four years, so.
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: But a lawsuit is not going to bring your mom back,
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: but hopefully it'll make it a way for other people
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: that have their, you know, mothers and family members there.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's all I'm saying.
• 16:57
  Speaker 15: Let people know if y'all got family in the nursing home,
• 17:00
  Speaker 15: please check.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: On them daily, man. And it's very important that they

• 20:06
  Speaker 18: it was answered. We're going to break it all down.
• 20:07
  Speaker 18: She actually talked about it a bit here when she
• 20:08
  Speaker 18: was on The Breakfast Club, too, so we'll get into it.
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: All right, we'll get into that next.
• 20:11
  Speaker 7: Don't move.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: It's The Breakfast Club.
• 20:12
  Speaker 7: Good morning.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: What you want to know.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: Lauren LaRosa.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: Because you particularly are bringing the energy to mainstream radio,
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: the black radio.
• 20:20
  Speaker 7: That source is trusted. Did you hear that exclusive?
• 20:22
  Speaker 17: Lauren.
• 20:22
  Speaker 18: I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything
• 20:25
  Speaker 18: and everything.
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: She be having the latest companies.
• 20:28
  Speaker 16: You ask the questions that need to be answered.
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: On The Breakfast Club.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: Little brown girls look at you and go, I want
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: to be like you.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: LL Cool B.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: Talk, talk.
• 20:36
  Speaker 18: So Lizzo posted to Instagram yesterday celebrating and saying that
• 20:40
  Speaker 18: her prayers were answered because she was still continuing to fight.
• 20:44
  Speaker 18: You guys remember that lawsuit that was filed almost two
• 20:47
  Speaker 18: years ago now. There was one filed by three backup
• 20:50
  Speaker 18: dancers and then there was another woman who worked as
• 20:52
  Speaker 18: a wardrobe stylist for Lizzo. And the claims were sexual harassment.
• 20:56
  Speaker 18: They were talking about, you know, a hostile work environment
• 20:59
  Speaker 18: that was fat shaming claims.
• 21:00
  Speaker 16: There was a ton of different things.
• 21:01
  Speaker 18: Well, some of the stuff was dismissed back in 2025
• 21:04
  Speaker 18: and Lizzo was removed as a defendant. But her big
• 21:07
  Speaker 18: girl touring production company was still being sued. So that
• 21:10
  Speaker 18: has been thrown out by a judge. And Lizzo is
• 21:14
  Speaker 18: now able to move on. And she said that she
• 21:16
  Speaker 18: would fight every single claim, whether it was against her
• 21:18
  Speaker 18: directly or. or against the tour company, but now she's
• 21:20
  Speaker 18: able to move on. But this was a big lawsuit
• 21:22
  Speaker 18: for her because I feel like it was the first
• 21:23
  Speaker 18: time where people started having non-positive, body-positive conversations about Lizzo
• 21:28
  Speaker 18: because the dancers had a claim that she had got
• 21:32
  Speaker 18: upset at one of them for gaining weight. She took
• 21:35
  Speaker 18: some other people to a strip club and they alleged
• 21:37
  Speaker 18: that she made them, like, touch a dancer or something
• 21:38
  Speaker 18: like that.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: Damn, they was already big. They was already big. And
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: then one of them gained weight?
• 21:42
  Speaker 19: More?
• 21:43
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 21:44
  Speaker 18: That's what was alleged. Lizzo denied all these claims. And
• 21:46
  Speaker 18: even when she was here, she denied the claims and
• 21:48
  Speaker 18: said that she was going to continue to fight. This
• 21:50
  Speaker 18: was back in 2025 May. Let's take a listen.
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: In reference to the lawsuit, I would say in light
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: of all of the other like high profile lawsuits that
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: have been coming out comparatively, the allegations against me. I
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: think now we see we're just kind of ridiculous. I
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: cracked my knuckles.
• 22:07
  Speaker 7: Hey, man, you sounded like a good time in the
• 22:08
  Speaker 7: strip club to me.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: And mind you, it.
• 22:10
  Speaker 6: Was going to the strip club. It doesn't say that
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: I did anything. I didn't do anything to anyone in
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: that strip club.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: I just went to the strip club.
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: And then being fatphobic for firing someone for gaining weight,
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: it just wasn't true.
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: But that was hilarious.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: It wasn't true, though.
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: I know, but it was hilarious just to read that.
• 22:26
  Speaker 6: But I also have to say one of my fears is,
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: I don't want my situation and my lawsuit to be
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: an indicator on any other that's going on.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: I don't want it to invalidate any other actual because
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: I will.
• 22:39
  Speaker 6: Always stand for real victims of of sexual harassment and
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: sexual violence and anything. And so I don't want what
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: happened to me to kind of invalidate anything else going
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: on in the world.
• 22:49
  Speaker 7: That's the problem, though, man. You're an idiot.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: Sometimes people got to think, I don't care what everybody
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: else got going on. What's going on over here ain't it?
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: And this is funny, all right?
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: But it wasn't true, you said, but it was hilarious.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: It was hilarious. Lizzo being fat phobic?
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Come on now. That sounds stupid.
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: It's more believable now because she ain't fat no more.
• 23:09
  Speaker 18: Back when I lost her job, people was actually trying
• 23:12
  Speaker 18: to act like, people was believing it.
• 23:13
  Speaker 16: They was like, see, we knew it wasn't all good
• 23:15
  Speaker 16: to be true.
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: Who are these people?
• 23:17
  Speaker 18: She was getting her behind handed to her.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: In the media.
• 23:21
  Speaker 16: The media and people that were having a conversation. Not
• 23:24
  Speaker 16: even social media.
• 23:25
  Speaker 18: Even the way that headlines were set up. It was
• 23:30
  Speaker 18: set up where it was like Lizzo was a super
• 23:32
  Speaker 18: body positive and positive person but here is the truth.
• 23:35
  Speaker 18: And I think that's why she fought every single claim
• 23:37
  Speaker 18: because it's like don't.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: Play with me.
• 23:40
  Speaker 16: Do not.
• 23:41
  Speaker 18: Lizzo's good. Fat girl touring. or Big Girl Touring.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 23:46
  Speaker 17: Wow.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: That's crazy. Wow. You don't even be the one at
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Big Girl Touring.
• 23:53
  Speaker 11: That's right.
• 23:54
  Speaker 7: They don't like that word.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: That's what's up. They don't like that word.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: That's what's up.
• 23:58
  Speaker 16: It's because I'm thinking fat phobic. Big Girl Touring is good.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Give me some.
• 24:02
  Speaker 17: No.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: Let's move on. Don't you hate.
• 24:05
  Speaker 7: When you gotta tell a fat person excuse me?
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: What?
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Continue on. Excuse you?
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: Please.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: All of you, move back.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: Goddamn.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Salute all the listeners of Sides out there.
• 24:19
  Speaker 7: We appreciate you.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 24:20
  Speaker 16: Lionel Richie, moving forward.
• 24:23
  Speaker 18: Lionel Richie, so he was hospitalized after a weekend of
• 24:26
  Speaker 18: shows in St.
• 24:27
  Speaker 15: Louis.
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: No.
• 24:27
  Speaker 18: He was taken to the ICU. Yeah, but remember, maybe
• 24:31
  Speaker 18: about a month ago, he had sat down on the
• 24:32
  Speaker 18: stage because he got dizzy.
• 24:33
  Speaker 16: Remember we talked about that up here?
• 24:34
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 24:35
  Speaker 18: So he checked himself into the hospital because they just
• 24:38
  Speaker 18: wanted to be safe. He said that they thought it
• 24:40
  Speaker 18: was dehydration, but there is an update that came out
• 24:42
  Speaker 18: that says that he's being tested right now for potential
• 24:45
  Speaker 18: cardiac issues. He was supposed to be discharged from the
• 24:48
  Speaker 18: hospital Tuesday, yesterday.
• 24:51
  Speaker 16: That didn't happen.
• 24:51
  Speaker 18: He's still there in the intensive care unit.
• 24:53
  Speaker 16: So just sending him some love.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 24:55
  Speaker 18: He's still actively on tour, though. Maybe he might need
• 24:59
  Speaker 18: to relax.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: All these old people need to sit the hell down.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: That's just what it is. I get it, but now look.
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: Sitting down on the side of the stage you're dehydrated
• 25:10
  Speaker 6: your heart almost fell out you know what I mean
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: like you need to sit down hydrate go to karaoke
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: once a week.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: That's why I didn't like him when he was talking
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: about Chris Brown and Usher because Lionel would be the
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: type of person to try to show he still got
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: it and be trying to do Chris Brown and Usher
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: dance moves you know you're clutching your chest boom you.
• 25:27
  Speaker 18: Know what I mean Lord have mercy Alrighty, y'all. Well,
• 25:32
  Speaker 18: real quick, as we wrap, I wanted to mention too,
• 25:34
  Speaker 18: taking it over to LA. There was a story that
• 25:36
  Speaker 18: came out yesterday. Dolly Parton's Hollywood Walk of Fame star
• 25:39
  Speaker 18: was vandalized. Like they like, like. literally scratched the star up,
• 25:42
  Speaker 18: so they're having to repair it. Dolly Parton.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: People have been bringing a.
• 25:46
  Speaker 18: Bunch of flowers and different stuff out there, and then
• 25:47
  Speaker 18: someone reported that it had been vandalized. The Chamber of
• 25:51
  Speaker 18: Commerce that handled the Walker stars had already planned to
• 25:54
  Speaker 18: kind of fix it up a bit, but people were
• 25:56
  Speaker 18: really upset about the fact that the star was vandalized.
• 25:58
  Speaker 16: People do not play about Dolly Parton. I know you
• 26:00
  Speaker 16: learned your lesson.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: I didn't know they vandalized it. I thought that they
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: were putting so much stuff on it that it got
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: scratched up. Somebody actually vandalized it?
• 26:07
  Speaker 18: Yeah, there was somebody that actually vandalized it. It was
• 26:10
  Speaker 18: scratched up, reportedly, one week after her death. Now, there
• 26:13
  Speaker 18: were a ton of flowers and things out there and
• 26:14
  Speaker 18: people visiting it. And some people that were out there
• 26:17
  Speaker 18: visiting it is who reported it, reported the fact that
• 26:19
  Speaker 18: it was scratched up.
• 26:20
  Speaker 7: You said one week after her death. Dolly been dead
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: a week?
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: Dolly ain't been dead no week, has she?
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: Repaired?
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 26:25
  Speaker 16: Yeah, it says one week after her.
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: They had a funeral fast.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: They did. Damn, they already had a funeral?
• 26:32
  Speaker 16: Her private one, yes. Yes, her family did.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: All the Dolly Parton fans been in my DMs.
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: All the white fans been in my DMs.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: Mad that I.
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: I said... What did I say? I said... But you
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: know what?
• 26:42
  Speaker 16: Her name was scratched off the star.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: Her name was scratched off the star.
• 26:44
  Speaker 17: Oh, wow.
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: They were probably making arrangements before because she was.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: She was sick, right? Like, she was already... Oh, you
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: mean her funeral? Yeah, because she was, like, just fast.
• 26:52
  Speaker 16: Yeah, I'm like, wait, they was planning to scratch me?
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no.
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: They usually have funerals fast when they're expecting a loved one.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, she was older. It could be.
• 27:01
  Speaker 7: Or some people, when somebody dies, they want to have
• 27:02
  Speaker 7: the funeral fast, get it out the way, get it
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: over with, and start the grieving process. That happens a lot, too. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 27:06
  Speaker 16: You are, Envy?
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: Why wouldn't I be around?
• 27:09
  Speaker 16: Okay, I mean... I know it's been rough over there
• 27:11
  Speaker 16: for you.
• 27:11
  Speaker 7: No, it hasn't. Dolly Parton fans were upset that I said,
• 27:14
  Speaker 7: you know, salute to Dolly Parton, rest in peace. I
• 27:16
  Speaker 7: thought it was dope that they did a petition to
• 27:17
  Speaker 7: get an airport named after her. But I said, I
• 27:20
  Speaker 7: wish that our musicians would get airports named after them
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: as well. I said, we should do that as well.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: Like Michael Jackson should definitely have an airport.
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: Like Prince, like Whitney Houston.
• 27:27
  Speaker 16: Absolutely.
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: And then they started sending me this list of eight
• 27:31
  Speaker 7: prominent black figures with airports named after them. And I said, musicians.
• 27:34
  Speaker 7: I didn't say... prominent figures. I said musicians, like Michael Jackson.
• 27:39
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: I think they just said that you would bring that
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: up in that moment. No, I just said it was dope,
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: but just thought about it.
• 27:44
  Speaker 7: It was a moment to just be about Dolly.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Like, let that be about Dolly.
• 27:49
  Speaker 7: You can have that conversation later. Nah, what made me
• 27:51
  Speaker 7: think about it is the way that people love their,
• 27:53
  Speaker 7: the way that they love Dolly Parton is the way
• 27:55
  Speaker 7: that we should love our artists and do the same
• 27:57
  Speaker 7: thing for our artists. Michael Jackson's been dead for so long,
• 28:00
  Speaker 7: so has Prince, so has Whitney Houston. I was like, damn,
• 28:03
  Speaker 7: we should do the same thing. And then they sent
• 28:05
  Speaker 7: me these eight prominent figures. And then if you look
• 28:07
  Speaker 7: up how many airports are named after white people, it
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: says thousands.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: I get what you're saying, but why have that conversation?
• 28:12
  Speaker 7: I just thought about it when I was like, I
• 28:13
  Speaker 7: thought it because I thought it was dope. You shouldn't
• 28:14
  Speaker 7: say everything you think about it. Nah, why not? I'm
• 28:16
  Speaker 7: getting to the age where I can. If they don't
• 28:18
  Speaker 7: like it, they can kiss my ass. I know that's right.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: I know that's right. It's my opinion.
• 28:22
  Speaker 16: You think the bar is just for no judge.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: You ain't seen it. I didn't say anything disrespectful. I
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: didn't say anything disrespectful.
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: I said rest in peace. And I thought it was dope.
• 28:28
  Speaker 7: And I think we should do it for our figures.
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: But then what about? That's not a time for a whataboutism.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: No, I didn't say it.
• 28:34
  Speaker 7: I said that is dope. I said we should do
• 28:36
  Speaker 7: it for our figures as well.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: That's all. All right.
• 28:40
  Speaker 16: Well, planes be flying.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: That's the latest.
• 28:44
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 28:44
  Speaker 16: Just change the subject.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: What is wrong with you? When we come back, we
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: got front page news. And then Tommy Davis will be
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: joining us.
• 28:53
  Speaker 7: I don't want to be helped. It's the Breakfast Club.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Jesselarius. Charlamagne Tha Guy.
• 28:58
  Speaker 7: We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front
• 29:00
  Speaker 7: page news.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: What's up, Mimi?
• 29:04
  Speaker 11: Good morning, guys.
• 29:06
  Speaker 10: So we start this morning or this hour with a
• 29:08
  Speaker 10: very heartbreaking story out of Ohio. A 20-year-old Haitian college
• 29:13
  Speaker 10: student has died after walking into oncoming traffic on the interstate.
• 29:18
  Speaker 10: His family says that, yes, he had been struggling with
• 29:21
  Speaker 10: pressure surrounding his immigration status. His name was Pierre Damas Bell. Now,
• 29:26
  Speaker 10: Bell came to the U.S. from Haiti in 2024. His
• 29:29
  Speaker 10: family describes him as happy, driven. He was an honors graduate, ROTC.
• 29:35
  Speaker 10: He was in college studying neuroscience, played soccer, and dreamed.
• 29:39
  Speaker 11: Of a career. career in medicine.
• 29:41
  Speaker 10: But his family says things changed over the past month
• 29:44
  Speaker 10: after the Trump administration moved to in temporary protective status
• 29:48
  Speaker 10: for Haitians. ICE placed Bell on a GPS ankle monitoring
• 29:53
  Speaker 10: monitoring system while his immigration case continued through the courts.
• 29:56
  Speaker 11: Now, they say it was painful. It made it difficult
• 29:59
  Speaker 11: for him to play soccer.
• 30:01
  Speaker 7: He was bullied.
• 30:01
  Speaker 10: He was embarrassed at school because of it. He reportedly
• 30:05
  Speaker 10: made several attempts to try and have the ankle monitor removed,
• 30:08
  Speaker 10: but that was unsuccessful. And then on Monday, Bell called
• 30:12
  Speaker 10: his father and told him that he wasn't feeling right
• 30:14
  Speaker 10: and he wasn't thinking right, and his father told him
• 30:17
  Speaker 10: to come home. But before he made it there, authorities
• 30:19
  Speaker 10: say Bell walked onto Interstate 70 and was struck and.
• 30:24
  Speaker 11: Killed by a trailer tractor.
• 30:26
  Speaker 10: His family and supporters, yes, they believe the bullying and
• 30:30
  Speaker 10: his experience wearing the ankle monitor contributed to his death.
• 30:34
  Speaker 11: Let's listen to a press conference his family held last night.
• 30:37
  Speaker 19: The rhetoric that we're deporting illegals, which is extremely dehumanizing,
• 30:42
  Speaker 19: there's nothing illegal or criminalizing about Pierre Damas Bell, not
• 30:48
  Speaker 19: even a traffic ticket. And it shouldn't have to get
• 30:51
  Speaker 19: to this point for this administration to understand that there's
• 30:54
  Speaker 19: blood on their hands.
• 30:55
  Speaker 11: There's nothing just about this.
• 30:57
  Speaker 16: Current immigration policy.
• 30:59
  Speaker 19: There's nothing just about shackling people that have not ever
• 31:03
  Speaker 19: committed a crime. Pierre was more patriotic than hateful Americans
• 31:08
  Speaker 19: that's pushing this harmful dehumanizing rhetoric.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: That's so sad.
• 31:14
  Speaker 7: That's very sad.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: Imagine being a Haitian who supports the Trump administration in
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: any way or works for the Trump administration in any
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: way and then you hear a story like this.
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: How can you live with yourself? Right.
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 31:25
  Speaker 10: The Ohio State Patrol is investigating and ICE says it
• 31:28
  Speaker 10: will not speculate on what led to Bell's death while
• 31:31
  Speaker 10: the investigation is ongoing.
• 31:33
  Speaker 11: So we will continue to watch that story. Very, very
• 31:36
  Speaker 11: sad this morning. Our condolences. Yeah.
• 31:40
  Speaker 10: And switching gears this morning, if you've ever walked into
• 31:44
  Speaker 10: a salon and had to ask, is there anyone in
• 31:46
  Speaker 10: here who knows how to do black hair? Well, there's
• 31:49
  Speaker 10: a new law in New York that is trying to
• 31:51
  Speaker 10: change that. So as of this week, students studying cosmetology
• 31:55
  Speaker 10: training in New York, they are now required to learn
• 31:58
  Speaker 10: how to work on all hair types and textures, including curly, coily,
• 32:02
  Speaker 10: and kinky hair. So until now, you could go through
• 32:06
  Speaker 10: cosmetology school there in New York, get your license, and
• 32:09
  Speaker 10: never be required to learn how to properly care for
• 32:12
  Speaker 10: black hair. Under this new requirement, students will learn how
• 32:16
  Speaker 10: to treat black analyze and style different hair textures and
• 32:19
  Speaker 10: which products to use. The training will also be included
• 32:23
  Speaker 10: to get your state licensing requirement. And this only applies
• 32:26
  Speaker 10: to new students. So if you're a hairstylist and you
• 32:29
  Speaker 10: have your license already in New York, you do not
• 32:31
  Speaker 10: have to go back to school and get this training.
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: Please do if you're serious about doing hair.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Please do.
• 32:38
  Speaker 7: I mean, even if you learn how to do it,
• 32:39
  Speaker 7: I'm still going to discriminate.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: The prejudice and bias with that one will always be strong.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Black hands should be on
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: black hair.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 32:47
  Speaker 7: That's just the reality of the situation.
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: And can't no white person teach you how to do
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: black hair. Is there going to be black instructors?
• 32:52
  Speaker 7: It's just like when you walk into a barbershop.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that white dude might be able to cut.
• 32:55
  Speaker 7: But we'll stick with the black. Yeah.
• 33:00
  Speaker 10: Well, this is a new law that they want to be,
• 33:02
  Speaker 10: you know, all inclusive. So everybody has to learn. I'm
• 33:06
  Speaker 10: not mad at it.
• 33:06
  Speaker 11: I'm not mad at it either.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: I'm not mad.
• 33:09
  Speaker 7: But it might not be suitable to them. Like you said,
• 33:12
  Speaker 7: when you go to the barber, when you go drive
• 33:14
  Speaker 7: through Manhattan, there's white barber shops. I've never one time said,
• 33:17
  Speaker 7: I'm going to stop there.
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: No.
• 33:19
  Speaker 7: Because I'm just not going. But you guys stop. But
• 33:22
  Speaker 7: I'm sure when a white person's in Harlem, I'm sure
• 33:24
  Speaker 7: they're like, I'm not going to go there. It is
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: what it is. I want somebody who knows my hair
• 33:28
  Speaker 7: to cut my hair. Yeah. You rarely see.
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, at least in my experience, you rarely see
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: white people come into the black barbershops to get their
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: hair cut, right?
• 33:37
  Speaker 7: It depends on what they get.
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: If you get in a fade or something, you might
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: go to a black barbershop.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: Growing up in Baltimore, it was a lot of white
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: people coming into black barbershops.
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: For sure.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: I used to work at a barbershop and wash hair.
• 33:46
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: Like, man, them white boys was coming to get bipped up.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: They didn't care.
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: They were probably getting fades.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: They were getting fades.
• 33:50
  Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: But it wasn't the scissor cuts, you know, like the scissors.
• 33:52
  Speaker 7: Oh, no, no, none of that.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: None of that.
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: Oh, no, no, no.
• 33:55
  Speaker 6: Nah, some of them, but they really wanted that fade
• 33:58
  Speaker 6: and that square shape up.
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, you come to get your fade and you
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: go to the black bar.

• 36:36
  Speaker 20: thing going.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? But I guess it's hitting me.
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: What did you put into the Barnell character that made
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: people remember it for three decades?
• 36:44
  Speaker 7: His spontaneity, man.
• 36:46
  Speaker 20: Because when me and him lined up, I went into
• 36:49
  Speaker 20: that daggone show, man. And I was like, so he
• 36:52
  Speaker 20: was like, come on, you know you're on my show, right?
• 36:55
  Speaker 20: You know you're on my show. I was like, yeah,
• 36:56
  Speaker 20: I know I'm on your show, man. But you know,
• 36:57
  Speaker 20: I got a show. He said, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 36:59
  Speaker 20: So bring it, bring it, bring it. So I brought
• 37:02
  Speaker 20: what I brought. And what I brought was, hey, watch out.
• 37:06
  Speaker 20: It's going to be some corners to go around. But
• 37:08
  Speaker 20: the same thing's happening on this show. The same thing's
• 37:11
  Speaker 20: happening on this show, man. We did a scene and
• 37:14
  Speaker 20: he was crying. He had these boys, right?
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: And I started going down the line, you know, calling
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: them different names and blah, blah, this, that, and the
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: other thing.
• 37:21
  Speaker 7: And he was supposed to be playing this gangster. And
• 37:23
  Speaker 7: he was trying to keep a straight face.
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: And he was like, literal tears were rolling all down
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: his cheek. It was like a mix of joy. And
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: it was hard to describe.
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: You know what I mean?
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: Just us being there. Because we went through all the
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: ups and downs, man. There was a comedy club called
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: the Comedy Act Theater.
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: And that's where everybody went. That was Robin Harris' joint, right?
• 37:47
  Speaker 7: So everybody was there. It was the hottest.
• 37:50
  Speaker 20: In L.A., you know, it was so far back that
• 37:53
  Speaker 20: the Raiders were winning Super Bowls. We were out in
• 37:56
  Speaker 20: the parking lot crying because the owner wouldn't put us
• 38:00
  Speaker 20: on stage the night that Spike Lee came to cast
• 38:04
  Speaker 20: Do the Right Thing.
• 38:05
  Speaker 7: And that was our shot. He got the movie.
• 38:07
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 38:08
  Speaker 7: He definitely got that movie, and that was his start.
• 38:10
  Speaker 20: And then I got my movie, Strictly Business, which, speaking
• 38:14
  Speaker 20: of puff, I'll just put that out there.
• 38:16
  Speaker 7: But, yeah, for the algorithms. What Puff had to do
• 38:19
  Speaker 7: here in the business? Puff was my assistant.
• 38:22
  Speaker 5: Was he really?
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah. In the movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He
• 38:26
  Speaker 7: was Andre's protege, right?
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
• 38:29
  Speaker 7: So he was to take me around all the clubs
• 38:32
  Speaker 7: and show me all the acts.
• 38:34
  Speaker 20: And I was like, this dude is smart as hell. Like,
• 38:38
  Speaker 20: he went around and he showed me Black Sheep. He's like,
• 38:40
  Speaker 20: they're going to blow up. He went and said, this
• 38:42
  Speaker 20: is leaders of the new school. People are thinking it's
• 38:44
  Speaker 20: going to be C.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: Brown.
• 38:45
  Speaker 7: Okay, okay. People are thinking it's going to be C.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: Brown.
• 38:47
  Speaker 7: I think it's going to be Busta.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: He would give me this whole analysis. But what he
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: told me one day was, he said, you're going to
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: have to cut your peak.
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: And I was like, I ain't cutting my peak, man.
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: This is my signature. He said, if you don't cut that,
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: it's going to look big on the screen. I was like,
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: get out of here.
• 39:04
  Speaker 7: And then I was at the premiere like. He was right.
• 39:07
  Speaker 7: My head is like a shark fan. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he was right.
• 39:10
  Speaker 7: Hello, Kujo.
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
• 39:12
  Speaker 7: Yeah, he was right. Brilliant. Me, him, and a guy
• 39:15
  Speaker 7: named Craig Boogie and Heavy.
• 39:17
  Speaker 11: Why he get fired?
• 39:18
  Speaker 13: Who?
• 39:18
  Speaker 16: Then did he get fired from that job?
• 39:20
  Speaker 7: Yeah, because he punched one of the... Damn. One of
• 39:24
  Speaker 7: the Teamsters. It wasn't really even a punch. It was
• 39:27
  Speaker 7: just kind of like a nick.
• 39:28
  Speaker 16: Oh, I thought you was going to say because of...
• 39:30
  Speaker 16: because it was your peak.
• 39:31
  Speaker 7: No, the guy, you know, New York, some teamster was like.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: You can't put your car there.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: And he said, hey, man, I'm just dropping this guy off. Look,
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: I'm his assistant. I'm putting his bags in the trailer.
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: Get it out of here. Get it out of here.
• 39:44
  Speaker 7: And he leaned in a little.
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: Bit too close and probably said, bam. And, you know,
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: what happened to the tough guy?
• 39:53
  Speaker 7: Call the police! You know what I mean? He got
• 39:55
  Speaker 7: taken away in a whole nine yards.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: He got locked up for that, too?
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 39:59
  Speaker 7: Got taken away. I went and got him.
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: You had to bail him out?
• 40:01
  Speaker 7: Four in the morning, down at 21st, in the precinct
• 40:04
  Speaker 7: right down there. He called me, man.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: Russ wouldn't get him. Andre wouldn't come down there. Nobody
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: would get him? Nobody was coming down to get them.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: It was probably regular behavior to them. You know what
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: I mean?
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I said, I'll come down there. Not knowing
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: if I was even going to be able to get
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: them out of there. And it was harder to get
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: in touch with people back then.
• 40:25
  Speaker 20: Yeah, for sure. Yeah, but when I went down there,
• 40:28
  Speaker 20: they were cool. And Living Color was at its hottest.
• 40:31
  Speaker 18: I was going to say, there was an Instagram live.
• 40:35
  Speaker 18: Remember Fat Joe was on all the lives during the pandemic?
• 40:38
  Speaker 18: And he had somebody on his show from Juice, and
• 40:41
  Speaker 18: they were talking about how Diddy was trying to be
• 40:43
  Speaker 18: Bishop in Juice, but he didn't get it. They wouldn't
• 40:46
  Speaker 18: let him come on the set to try it because
• 40:47
  Speaker 18: of the incident that happened on that set. They didn't
• 40:49
  Speaker 18: want the set to be crazy.
• 40:52
  Speaker 20: Maybe so, maybe so. I mean, he was jumping in.
• 40:55
  Speaker 20: When I was going around to the clubs, Red Parrot, Octagon,
• 40:58
  Speaker 20: The Building, those were the spots. And I was in
• 41:02
  Speaker 20: New York at that time when everything was... So when
• 41:06

• 41:45
  Speaker 2: We know.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: We know.
• 41:46
  Speaker 5: We know.
• 41:47
  Speaker 7: We know.
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: We know.
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: LL, I ain't never said no s * * *
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: like that. I don't know where it be getting that from.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: I ain't never said no s * * * like that.
• 42:10
  Speaker 7: Is this me over here greasy?
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: LL, I don't know what.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: The hell I ain't be talking about.
• 42:15
  Speaker 7: Jesus Christ.
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: And you know LL would really put hands on him.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: LL, I'm going to see you. You've had so much success.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: But then there was like your contemporaries, a lot of
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: them have become even bigger household names, right? But have
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: you ever had to wrestle with wondering why somebody else's
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: career went one direction and yours went another, but right
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: now you got your own show in 2026?
• 42:39
  Speaker 20: I did when it was happening because I didn't understand
• 42:43
  Speaker 20: what I know now. Something happened to me along the
• 42:46
  Speaker 20: line where I realized, hey, man, why don't you stop complaining?
• 42:49
  Speaker 20: Why don't you stop complaining about who got this and
• 42:52
  Speaker 20: who got that and who got that?
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: Why don't you find out what they did? Why don't
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: you find out what they did to do that? Why
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: don't you start to look at what choices they're making?
• 42:59
  Speaker 7: You know what I mean? Why don't you start trying.
• 43:01
  Speaker 20: To work harder on what you're doing, but at the
• 43:05
  Speaker 20: same time, you know, do the math.
• 43:07
  Speaker 7: Do the math about what you see. You know what
• 43:10
  Speaker 7: I mean?
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: If it's a certain agency, if it's a certain this
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: or that, or they did this with an article or whatever,
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: then there's nothing wrong with watching the path and following it.
• 43:20
  Speaker 7: But for me, you know, I want my path to
• 43:22
  Speaker 7: be my path.
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 43:24
  Speaker 7: I don't want to have to, you know, I can
• 43:27
  Speaker 7: do this. I can do this. You know what I mean?
• 43:28
  Speaker 7: But you can learn from the people closest to you.
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: But at 60 plus, getting your own TV show built
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: around a character you created in your 20s, 30s, that
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: has to hit differently. Like, does it feel like a
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: comeback or like confirmation that you never went nowhere? It's
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: confirmation and it's a comeback too because I get to
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: be in front of the thing that people know me for.
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
• 43:49
  Speaker 20: You know, if I play quarterback, right, and then I
• 43:54
  Speaker 20: have to sit down for another person for a couple
• 43:56
  Speaker 20: of seasons or whatever, then, hey, I'm always a quarterback, right?
• 44:01
  Speaker 7: But I've seen quarterbacks.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: Go through going in, first round draft choice, being the
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: hot guy, got all the money, this, that, and the
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: other thing, and then slow down, slow down.
• 44:11
  Speaker 7: And the years went by and they didn't get those things.
• 44:13
  Speaker 7: And then finally.
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: The opportunity came, but the opportunity didn't come like in
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: one day.
• 44:19
  Speaker 7: The opportunity came by them saying, you know what? I'm
• 44:21
  Speaker 7: going to hang in there. I don't have the start, but,
• 44:25
  Speaker 7: you know, I'm working. I got my kids. He's good
• 44:27
  Speaker 7: to me. I've seen greater miracles, but I'll take this one.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: I will take this one. What got you back on
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: your square?
• 44:34
  Speaker 7: Because, you know, you talk about your trials and tribulations.
• 44:36
  Speaker 7: What got you back to staying focused and saying, I
• 44:39
  Speaker 7: can do this? Because most people would have focused, right,
• 44:41
  Speaker 7: with some of the stuff that you've been with. So
• 44:43
  Speaker 7: what got you in that mind frame to be like,
• 44:44
  Speaker 7: I can do it?
• 44:45
  Speaker 20: I always thought that I could, you know, but while
• 44:49
  Speaker 20: things started happening without me, I started doubting it.
• 44:52
  Speaker 7: Not doubting what I could do, but doubting if it
• 44:54
  Speaker 7: would happen.
• 44:55
  Speaker 20: You know, that's one of the things that has changed
• 44:57
  Speaker 20: about my thinking is that who cares when it's going
• 45:00
  Speaker 20: to happen? Just keep working on it. Just keep working
• 45:04
  Speaker 20: on it, man. And it'll meet you halfway. You know,
• 45:06
  Speaker 20: if you ain't prepared when it happened, it's not going
• 45:08
  Speaker 20: to happen anyway.
• 45:09
  Speaker 7: That's right. Did you ever do anything that would hurt
• 45:12
  Speaker 7: you from coming back? Like you talk about Diddy. And
• 45:15
  Speaker 7: she just mentioned that, you know, Diddy might have or
• 45:17
  Speaker 7: might have not punched the guy in the face, which
• 45:19
  Speaker 7: hurt him for trying off a bishop. Have you ever
• 45:21
  Speaker 7: went so far where you couldn't come back or had
• 45:24
  Speaker 7: to repair those relationships?
• 45:26
  Speaker 20: With myself, you know, going through my downward spiral with
• 45:29
  Speaker 20: substance and going through my downward spiral just as a man,
• 45:33
  Speaker 20: trying to be a man in this thing, you know,
• 45:36
  Speaker 20: not able to be the best that I could be
• 45:39
  Speaker 20: in relationships, too.
• 45:40
  Speaker 7: Hmm.
• 45:41
  Speaker 20: You know, and now that my children are older, you know,
• 45:44
  Speaker 20: and now that I see, you can lose it.
• 45:47
  Speaker 7: You know, you can lose it. You might not think so. Mm-hmm.
• 45:50
  Speaker 7: But it also can come back.
• 45:52
  Speaker 20: But there's one ingredient that I never really paid much
• 45:56
  Speaker 20: attention to is the thing that brings the sun up
• 45:58
  Speaker 20: every day. And I took more, I started taking more,
• 46:02
  Speaker 20: I had more respect for that. Not because I have
• 46:06
  Speaker 20: respect for it, because trial by ass.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: Whipping, I learned it.
• 46:10
  Speaker 7: Mm-hmm.
• 46:10
  Speaker 12: Mm-hmm.
• 46:11
  Speaker 7: Tried by my own ass. You weren't a spiritual person
• 46:13
  Speaker 7: prior to that? Not like I am now. Not like
• 46:17
  Speaker 7: I don't have to think about believing. All praise is
• 46:19
  Speaker 7: due to God. Say his name. Don't say that thing
• 46:22
  Speaker 7: before that puts the sun up.
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: God. Yeah.
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 46:25
  Speaker 7: There you go.
• 46:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 46:27
  Speaker 20: There's no doubt. There's no doubt in my mind. And
• 46:31
  Speaker 20: it was from things being put right in front of me.
• 46:34
  Speaker 20: Like when my mother passed away. You know, my mother
• 46:36
  Speaker 20: wouldn't let me come see her. She knew I was
• 46:37
  Speaker 20: the most sensitive ever. So she didn't even let me
• 46:39
  Speaker 20: come see her. And my sister was like, she's serious.
• 46:41
  Speaker 20: She don't want you to come and see her like this.
• 46:43
  Speaker 20: And I was like, man, I had to stay at
• 46:45
  Speaker 20: home and all that, right? Well, she started out as
• 46:47
  Speaker 20: an atheist, right? She never taught God in my house,
• 46:50
  Speaker 20: none of that.
• 46:51
  Speaker 7: None of that, right?
• 46:52
  Speaker 20: Didn't want to, but she was carrying on that way.
• 46:54
  Speaker 20: Like she'd give, you know, kids food. And if somebody,
• 46:57
  Speaker 20: you always know somebody got killed in my neighborhood because
• 46:59
  Speaker 20: they crying in our living room at four in the morning.
• 47:02
  Speaker 20: She's always helping people. So I couldn't understand that. I
• 47:05
  Speaker 20: couldn't understand it, but then she used to like me
• 47:07
  Speaker 20: to sing to her.
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: So, so I called her and my sister said, if
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: you want to talk to her again, you better, you better,
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: you better call her.
• 47:12
  Speaker 7: I said, cool. And I, you know, she said, sing
• 47:14
  Speaker 7: for me. And I sang. And then she said, I'm
• 47:16
  Speaker 7: not afraid anymore because there is a God.
• 47:18
  Speaker 20: Now what's the chances of her finding me in the trash,
• 47:22
  Speaker 20: carrying me that whole time, a black child with white
• 47:25
  Speaker 20: family in DC and then finding God in the process.
• 47:29
  Speaker 20: So when I see people having a debate about it,
• 47:32
  Speaker 20: you know, I don't debate anymore. Because I know where
• 47:34
  Speaker 20: I've been on more than one occasion with a gun
• 47:38
  Speaker 20: in my face or whatever it was where it could.
• 47:40
  Speaker 7: Have been gone. Look at God. That's right. What song
• 47:43
  Speaker 7: did she like for you to sing to her?
• 47:44
  Speaker 8: I sang.
• 47:45
  Speaker 7: That's a boing, boing.
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: Not to his mother.
• 47:51
  Speaker 7: What am I doing?
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: What am I doing?
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: What am I doing?
• 47:58
  Speaker 16: What am I doing?
• 48:01
  Speaker 7: He still gets ching ching when he does it.
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: You see what I'm saying?
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: It works for him.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: I ain't doubting him.
• 48:07
  Speaker 7: I never doubt him. When I heard that, I was like,
• 48:11
  Speaker 7: he's three less than Mahomes. You know what I mean?
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: But when you stay true to yourself, though. You know,
• 48:18
  Speaker 3: I could do like, yeah, don't call it a comeback.
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: I've been here for years. But I know what he
• 48:21
  Speaker 3: was saying. But if you're not seen, then who knows?
• 48:25
  Speaker 7: That's the hardest.
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: But you've always been seen.
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: Like, there's something beautiful about this idea sitting dormant for
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: all this time. And then suddenly, this is your next chapter. Like,
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: what has this taught you about timing? This experience in particular.
• 48:41
  Speaker 7: That when God feels you're ready, then it's going to happen.
• 48:45
  Speaker 7: It's going to happen.
• 48:47
  Speaker 20: You know, you can have all the doubt in the world,
• 48:48
  Speaker 20: you know, and have, like, just the storm brewing and
• 48:53
  Speaker 20: just know that there's always a light at the end
• 48:56
  Speaker 20: of that tunnel.
• 48:57
  Speaker 7: I remember watching.
• 48:59
  Speaker 20: Three Things, I remember, because I listened to hear him
• 49:03
  Speaker 20: in people after things happened.
• 49:06
  Speaker 7: So when the linebacker, Lewis, from the Ravens.
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: Ray Lewis.
• 49:13
  Speaker 5: Ray Lewis.
• 49:14
  Speaker 20: That stabbing situation, he was going to go to jail
• 49:16
  Speaker 20: and blah, blah, blah, blah. He ended up getting the
• 49:18
  Speaker 20: MVP in the Super Bowl. and winning the Super Bowl.
• 49:21
  Speaker 20: And I listened to his interview. And he said, I
• 49:25
  Speaker 20: knew God wouldn't put me in that kind of trial
• 49:27
  Speaker 20: unless there was a triumph after that.
• 49:30
  Speaker 7: Then Plexico.
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: Plexico actually got the last touchdown in the Super Bowl.
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: So they asked him, hey, man. You shot yourself in
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: the leg. You got thrown out of the league. You
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: had to go to jail. You end up coming back
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: two seasons. And then you end up catching a winning
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: touchdown in the Super Bowl. What do you attest that to?
• 49:48
  Speaker 20: And he said, well, when I got up this morning,
• 49:50
  Speaker 20: I said, God, if you get me to the field,
• 49:53
  Speaker 20: I'd be happy with just that.
• 49:55
  Speaker 16: So playing for now for you this time.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: I got one more.
• 49:58
  Speaker 7: I don't remember it.
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: Damn.
• 50:00
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't remember. It's okay.
• 50:01
  Speaker 18: But playing Ronell for you this time, because of all
• 50:04
  Speaker 18: the ups, the downs, the times that you had to
• 50:05
  Speaker 18: sit and the thought process, just all that is different
• 50:08
  Speaker 18: than when you were playing Ronell on Martin. There's more
• 50:11
  Speaker 18: of a spiritual alignment for you right now?
• 50:13
  Speaker 7: Yeah, and you learn. You live and you learn, right?
• 50:17
  Speaker 20: And one of the things that is the most difficult
• 50:20
  Speaker 20: about entertainment is that there's a thing called business attached
• 50:25
  Speaker 20: to it. You know, so this is show business. And
• 50:28
  Speaker 20: that's why the song says that, you know, there's no
• 50:29
  Speaker 20: business like show business. It's like no business I know.
• 50:34
  Speaker 20: Something like that is going to make the person across
• 50:37
  Speaker 20: from you in the movie not give you your lines
• 50:39
  Speaker 20: off camera. Just because they felt like not doing it
• 50:42
  Speaker 20: that day. Or just because they felt like, hey, man,
• 50:45
  Speaker 20: I ain't helping you. I'm never going to be able
• 50:47
  Speaker 20: to get through to that person. You know, so it's
• 50:50
  Speaker 20: that conclusion that the business is never going to be done.
• 50:53
  Speaker 20: The business got.
• 50:54
  Speaker 7: To do itself. But the show must go on.
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: Morning, everybody.
• 50:58
  Speaker 7: It's DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
• 51:02
  Speaker 7: The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Tommy Davison.
• 51:04
  Speaker 7: His new show, The Varnell Hill, is out right now.
• 51:07
  Speaker 7: You can check it out on Paramount +.
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: Lauren.
• 51:09
  Speaker 18: The show it's like the then versus the now right
• 51:12
  Speaker 18: and I'm listening to you all this wisdom and this
• 51:14
  Speaker 18: clarity and I'm thinking about how like the shows in
• 51:17
  Speaker 18: the 90s and like you mentioned Arsenio Hall and those
• 51:19
  Speaker 18: talk shows they carried a different type of responsibility than
• 51:22
  Speaker 18: you see with a lot of creators and just people
• 51:24
  Speaker 18: online in writers rooms today right what do you think
• 51:29
  Speaker 18: is missing from that time period that we don't have
• 51:31
  Speaker 18: today and is there a way to bridge it because
• 51:33
  Speaker 18: that's kind of what Ronell Hill's show would do if
• 51:36
  Speaker 18: it were a real show and could.
• 51:37
  Speaker 20: Probably databases and stuff Social media. Now you can have
• 51:41
  Speaker 20: your whole world in the palm of your hand. You
• 51:43
  Speaker 20: ain't got to reference nobody, really. You ain't got to
• 51:45
  Speaker 20: talk to nobody, really. There's a lot of stuff that
• 51:47
  Speaker 20: you can do in there that's to do. A big
• 51:50
  Speaker 20: part of our generations, they live in there.
• 51:52
  Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying? They live in there.
• 51:54
  Speaker 20: But there's a world out here, too. So I credit
• 51:58
  Speaker 20: it to that, but it ain't going nowhere. You got
• 52:00
  Speaker 20: to live with changes.
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: I'm sure when a couple guys were on a horse
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: and they saw the car, they said, man, what is that, man?
• 52:06
  Speaker 7: It can't even go up a hill. Right. You know,
• 52:09
  Speaker 7: now the cars are named after horsepower. So we know
• 52:12
  Speaker 7: that it's there. But so are horses. You see what
• 52:14
  Speaker 7: I'm saying?
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: So, yeah.
• 52:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah. You know, they don't need no grocery store. They
• 52:18
  Speaker 7: don't need us.
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: But I know them damn horses was happy as hell. Like,
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: thank you. I'm supposed to ride on because look.
• 52:25
  Speaker 15: Comedy, comedy.
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: Comedy.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Stand up comedy.
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: That's comedy.
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: Now them horses getting hunted for meat. Right, right.
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah. They getting what?
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: Hunting for meat.
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, they're being hunted.
• 52:40
  Speaker 6: You ain't never tasted horse?
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: No, you have? Is it good?
• 52:47
  Speaker 7: Yeah, if everybody knew how a horse tastes, they'd be gone. Delicious.
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: Damn.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Delicious.
• 52:51
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I did it in Sicily, man. The
• 52:55
  Speaker 7: dude was like, it's horse. I was like, no, we
• 52:56
  Speaker 7: ain't gonna eat no horse meat.
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: He took that thing and put it in a broiler,
• 52:58
  Speaker 3: put some butter on that, man, brought that out to me.
• 53:00
  Speaker 7: I was like, oh my God.
• 53:02
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: Oh my God. I was like, horses would be gone.
• 53:07
  Speaker 7: You know what I mean?
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: I've got a couple more questions. You know what I
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: think is smart about the Varnel Hill show? Like, I've
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: heard Martin say he don't want to reboot Martin. But
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: this is like the smart way to expand that universe
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: and to get back into that universe without rebooting Martin.
• 53:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
• 53:21
  Speaker 7: Because that boy is smart, man. He is smart.
• 53:24
  Speaker 20: It's so good being attached to him at this time, too,
• 53:26
  Speaker 20: because of the choices he's made. And I'm also a
• 53:30
  Speaker 20: part of... My career is credited to black men. The
• 53:35
  Speaker 20: first time I was on TV, it was Robert Townsend.
• 53:37
  Speaker 20: Second time I was on TV, it was Arsenio Hall.
• 53:40
  Speaker 7: Oh, my God.
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: Third time, it was Eddie Murphy, where I played his
• 53:44
  Speaker 3: little brother in a CBS series called Coming to America.
• 53:48
  Speaker 20: It didn't go, but he did that. And then Kenan
• 53:51
  Speaker 20: was the next one. And I swore off everything because.
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: I had the best agents and everything, and I was
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: going to be the big dude, and it didn't happen.
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: And so I got a call from my agent, from
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: Kenan Ivory Williams, who was the man that said he
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: wanted me to do A TV show.
• 54:06
  Speaker 7: And I said, I don't want to do it.
• 54:07
  Speaker 20: Because me and my manager at the time, Sinclair Jones,
• 54:10
  Speaker 20: wherever you are, man, call me, boy. He said, nah,
• 54:12
  Speaker 20: let's go back to the clubs and rebuild what we're building.
• 54:16
  Speaker 20: Because all this was a strategic plan.
• 54:18
  Speaker 7: Mm-hmm.
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: I just hit the plan earlier than that.
• 54:21
  Speaker 7: Mm-hmm.
• 54:23
  Speaker 20: Our plan was dominate in stand-up, do a stand-up special,
• 54:28
  Speaker 20: or as many as you can, then get into TV,
• 54:30
  Speaker 20: then get into film.
• 54:31
  Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
• 54:32
  Speaker 20: Then get into producing and authoring and all the other
• 54:35
  Speaker 20: stuff you want to do. You know, we had like
• 54:38
  Speaker 20: a 20 year plan, but it's been 35 years now.
• 54:41
  Speaker 20: So I hit it 15 early. You know, I'm just grateful, man.
• 54:44
  Speaker 20: I got the call from you.
• 54:45
  Speaker 7: I'm like, oh, man. Yeah, let's do that again.
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, man.
• 54:49
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 54:49
  Speaker 7: You kidding me? Let's do that again.
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: I do have a question.
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 54:53
  Speaker 7: So when I heard you were coming, of course, I
• 54:54
  Speaker 7: Googled the show. before they sent the trailers and the
• 54:58
  Speaker 7: episodes beforehand. I seen Jess Hilarious on there. I thought
• 55:02
  Speaker 7: Jess Hilarious was in it, but I seen the first
• 55:03
  Speaker 7: four episodes and she wasn't.
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: Is she on it? I watched the whole season. No,
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not in it. What happened, Tommy?
• 55:09
  Speaker 7: Damn.
• 55:09
  Speaker 4: Damn.
• 55:10
  Speaker 7: Were you there?
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I did. Remember when I came out to L.A.
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: and I shot something with you?
• 55:15
  Speaker 16: It was.
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: It was like two or three scenes.
• 55:18
  Speaker 6: Remember, Bentley had hit me, and I know now Evans.
• 55:22
  Speaker 7: Why don't I remember that?
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know why you don't remember that. You ain't
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: that damn old.
• 55:25
  Speaker 7: It wasn't on a set?
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: It was. It was a set. We came out.
• 55:28
  Speaker 7: What was the scene?
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: You had on a yellow suit. What was the scene?
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: You had on the same suit you were in. What
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: was the scene?
• 55:32
  Speaker 6: I was, oh my gosh, like, I was like, one
• 55:34
  Speaker 6: where I was flirting with you, and then it was
• 55:35
  Speaker 6: like three different.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: Scenes that we shot.
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: Got what the hell my name was. But yeah, I
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: came out there. They flew me out to L.A.

  Speaker 6: and they said that it was done.
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: Like, all right, they brought everything to a halt.

• 59:30
  Speaker 18: This morning, y'all, I know you guys mentioned Cat Williams' birthday.
• 59:34
  Speaker 18: But we have another thing to celebrate on his birthday
• 59:37
  Speaker 18: because Netflix announced that he will have a podcast, a
• 59:40
  Speaker 18: video podcast coming to Netflix.
• 59:42
  Speaker 11: Congratulations.
• 59:43
  Speaker 16: Yes, it will premiere on Netflix later in 2026.
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: I love Cat.
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Netflix doubled down on a lot of podcasts, but
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: I really want them to stop calling these things podcasts
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: until they get the audio component, okay?
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: They're vodcasts, which we love.
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: Oh, video podcast.
• 59:58
  Speaker 16: Yeah, but I think.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 18: Well, I've seen both when they announce new things, but
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 18: I feel like they say podcast because people just more
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 18: easily know what a podcast is.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: You got to respect the game. And by the way,
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: they should just have an audio portion. All they got
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 3: to do is partner with us here at iHeart, and
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 3: we can do all the audio.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 4: But.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 7: Baby. Cat Williams has a vodcast coming to Netflix. Yes,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 7: that's dope.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: Congratulations.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 18: I don't know the name of it yet. It just
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 18: was announced that it was ordered and that it will
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 18: be here later this year. So congratulations. Following his special too,
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 18: which is, you know, a dope follow up to a special.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 18: Now, in other news, speaking of show business, so Issa

  Speaker 18: And then they told us some good and bad news
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 18: yesterday because the tour is going to be canceled, kind of,
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 18: but not.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 16: Let's take a listen. Hey, y'all.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 6: Thank you so much for supporting the Insecure 10-Year Anniversary Tour.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: Do you want the good news or the bad news?
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 7: Yvonne.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: Uh-uh, Issa.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 7: Don't do that.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: Why are you putting that on me, huh?
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 6: You guys, we just want to say thank you for
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 6: rocking with us for the last 10 years.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 2: The reality is... Wait, what time is it?
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 7: I gotta leave right now. Hey, Jay, is there something
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 7: you want to tell the people?
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: What the hell? I guess I'm the one who has
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: to tell you.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 5: What was that?
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 4: You need me now?
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: I gotta.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: You know what, Natasha?
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 5: You got it.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 7: Hey, guys.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 16: Looks like I have to carry this like I did
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 16: all five Caesars.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: The tour ain't happening, y'all.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 4: Let me pass it to Prentice, and.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: He'll tell you the good news.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 7: We're still celebrating the 10-year anniversary of Insecure in Inglewood
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 7: on October 8th.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 3: Guys, we are so sorry we had to cancel the tour,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: but everybody started working, which is good.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 6: Unfortunately, our schedules got messed up and we are so sorry,
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 6: but we only wanted to do this if we could
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 6: all be there and give you the best experience possible.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: I promise you I thought that when they announced this tour.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 3: Because I'm like, there's no way all of them could
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 3: be on all of these dates. Because whether it's Prentice, Issa, Jay, Natasha,
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 3: or Yvonne, they always working. How are all of them
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: going to be off on dates when they got to
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 3: do these shows?
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 18: At first, yeah, because, I mean, we just talked about it.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 18: But at first I was like, well, why wouldn't they? But, yeah,
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 18: things come up. I know just in the last two
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 18: weeks we've talked about and watched just four to five
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 18: announcements with Issa Rae alone. So I can only imagine
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 18: what else is happening. For the rest of the cast,
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 18: because they out here and they working. Issa Rae, just
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 18: the last announcement I saw, her and Tracy Oliver are
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 18: doing a new show as well, too, that they have coming.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 18: So they all have a lot going on. But that
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 18: October 8th date, you can get tickets at Ticketmaster. And
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 18: they say that the refunds are going to be coming
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 18: back to people who already bought tickets within 14 to
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 18: 21 days.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 16: So you'll still get to see your favorite cast from Insecure.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 7: They're doing one show, though, you said, right?
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 18: Yes, one show on October 8th. And it's going to
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 18: happen at the YouTube Theater in Englewood.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 16: And in my opinion... them doing one.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 18: Show to celebrate the 10 year anniversary in Englewood is
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 18: to me, it's going to be a lot like more like, wow,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 18: insecure than going everywhere else to see them.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 16: I think it's going to make it even bigger. So yes.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 18: Uh, now as we shift gears a bit, we had
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 18: talked about, uh, Dane dash and the fact that, uh,
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 18: his life rights were planning to be auctioned off. Um,
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 18: This coming after a lot of the different debt conversations
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 18: that we've had around Dame Dash and some of the
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 18: money that he owes to different people. Now, when I
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 18: talked about this story, when we broke the story, I
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 18: told you guys that the.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 18: People that were investigating the bankruptcy were asking a judge
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 18: to set a plan in place. We now have the plan.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 18: So Dame Dash's Life Rights will be auctioned off on
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 18: October 27th. That's when the winning bid will be announced.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 18: But the auction will take place on October 1st.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 16: I'm sorry.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 18: The bidder's the last day for you to bid will
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 18: be September 23rd. Now, they do still have the Everlasting Films,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 18: who was the original person. I told you guys that
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 18: put down that 37K. But they said that they've received
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 18: a bunch of different other inquiries. So now they're moving
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 18: forward with an auction on October 1st. Final date will
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 18: be October 27th.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: And, yeah.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 16: So, small update there. What are you smiling at, Charlamagne?
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 7: I am not smiling. There's no smile over here.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: There was a little smile over there. There was a
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: little smile. I did see a little smile over there.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 7: Okay. I was not smiling. What would you call it?
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 7: I wasn't doing nothing.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: You were smizing?
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 7: I wasn't even doing that.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 3: The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan says, when you see men fall,
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 3: you don't laugh, you learn.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 9: 100%.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 3: Okay. Yeah.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 7: I wasn't smiling.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: And for people learning.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 18: For people who who are wondering what the bid or
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 18: who don't remember our original report in this bid, if
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 18: you win the auction, you will be entitled to receive
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 18: exclusive worldwide rights to Dame Dash's life story, as well
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 18: as 100 hours of video content that the people that
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 18: were investigating the bankruptcy say that they've gotten a hold to,
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 18: including video content, photographs and different memory.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 7: Video content before you make a bid.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 16: I'm not for sure about that. I don't have the answer.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 7: If somebody wants to invest in, because they invest in, right?
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 7: Nobody's going to buy just this like Dame Dash. They're
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 7: going to invest into a project and they want to
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 7: know what they're getting. They want to know what the
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 7: video is and they want to know if they can
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 7: use it for a documentary or if it's a voice.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 18: I'm not 100% for sure, but I wouldn't see why
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 18: you wouldn't be able to ask questions if you're putting
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 18: up the money. But I do know in addition to that,
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 18: there's the project that was unreleased and in development. He
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 18: was on like a Rockefeller story of some sort that
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 18: also would be included within this.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 7: So, yeah.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 16: So that's the latest for the hour, guys.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 18: And coming up in the next latest, we're going to
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 18: talk about parenting because 21 Savage sat down with Pete
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 18: Davidson and they are having a dad's talk about being
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 18: present parents.
• 1:05:17

• 1:06:47
  Speaker 7: It's because he's a booty boogie man, okay?
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: An ass goblin, all right? The Grim Chica, all right?
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 3: He is a serial butt sniffer, and he was arrested
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 3: again after employees at stores in Glendale, California allegedly caught
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 3: him doing what he does best, And that's crouching behind
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 3: people and attempting to smell their ass.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 7: Let's go to NBC4 News for the report, please.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 14: The man, the so-called butt sniffer, is apparently under arrest again.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 2: We have exclusive video that shows 39-year-old.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 14: Khalees Crowder inside a store in Glendale where, once again,
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 14: he is accused of smelling people's behinds.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 15: NBC4' s Tracy Leong joins us live from that business right
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 15: now in Glendale with details of the new arrest.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 12: Tracy.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 14: Yeah, Carolyn and Colleen, the owner here at the Big
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 14: Save discount store called police. after they noticed a man
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 14: bending down attempting to sniff customers. In this video, you
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 14: see the man who police have identified as 39-year-old Calise Crowder.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 14: Witnesses say he was trying to sniff people inside the store.
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 14: Police arrested Crowder on Friday around 3.30 after reviewing this
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 14: surveillance footage from Big Save Discount Store and video from
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 14: another store, Marshall's, which is about three and a half
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 14: miles away, where Crowder was allegedly doing the same thing.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 14: Police say Crowder was cooperative and was booked for a
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 14: parole violation. This is not the first time Crowder has
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 14: been caught for inappropriate behavior. Last year in July, Crowder
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 14: was arrested at the Burbank Nordstrom Rack after police received
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 14: reports of someone roaming the women's department and sexually harassing
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 14: a female customer. Then one month later, he was arrested
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 14: after allegedly sniffing a woman's behind inside a Walgreens store
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 14: in Burbank. Investigators say Crowder has a history of similar
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 14: offenses in Glendale and Burbank dating back to 2021.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 3: At this point, I need to see him on Vlad TV. Okay, Vlad,
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 3: you need to get to the bottom of this bottom sniffer. Okay,
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 3: I'm not serious enough to have this. I'm not mature
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 3: enough to have that kind of conversation with him.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 7: Because if you keep in score, you just heard what
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 7: they said.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 3: That's four documented arrest incidents tied to this kind of behavior.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: But reports describe a much longer history.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 7: Okay? Khalees, what are you searching for, okay?
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 3: In my mind, you're an alien from another planet and
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: you're searching for something that has been buried in an
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 3: anus somewhere in California, okay? It's something that's the equivalent
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 3: of an infinity stone and it's been hidden in someone's
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 3: rectum on this planet and Khalees has to find it.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 3: Maybe he's a Green Lantern, okay, investigating an alien conspiracy
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 3: and he has to anal probe people for the investigation
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 3: this has happened way too many times for it to
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 3: be normal okay calise has a problem and you don't
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 3: just wake up and become jack the sniffle okay i
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 3: don't know what got calise to this point but i
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 3: do know everything you desire does not deserve expression okay
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 3: human beings have strange impulses uh human beings have strange
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 3: addictions human beings have strange kinks OK, we have thoughts
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 3: we probably never admit publicly, but that's what discipline comes
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 3: into play. And being disciplined doesn't mean you don't have impulses. OK,
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 3: discipline means your impulses don't control you. OK, but they
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 3: definitely control Khalees. Khalees clearly enjoys the aroma of anus
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 3: in the morning. The best part of waking up is
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 3: my nose in someone's butt. That is a direct quote
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 3: from Khalees' Facebook post.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 7: I'm lying. I made that up.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 3: But, Khalees, okay, these women didn't consent to have their
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 3: asses be your nose candy, okay? Look, you can, you know,
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 3: do whatever you like if you got consent. Without consent,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 3: you are violating somebody else's peace. That's a crime, okay?
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 3: And that's the issue. I don't think Khalees knows he's
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 3: doing anything wrong. He's really sick because insanity is doing
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 3: And this brother has reportedly been arrested multiple times, okay,
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 3: which proves something about human nature, right? consequences don't change
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 3: people who haven't decided they want to change okay sometimes
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 3: punishment just creates an intermission And him going to jail
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 3: right now.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 7: Was just another intermission.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 3: You can lock somebody up, you can embarrass them, you
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 3: can fine them, but if the thinking doesn't change, you
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 3: haven't ended the behavior, okay?
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: You just put it on a quick commercial break, all right?
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 3: This man is 39 years old, and he's a Darien Damon, okay?
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 7: When he was younger, he was probably a teenage mutant
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 7: truffle pig.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 3: Look, I don't care if it's sex, money, food, drugs, attention, power,
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 3: whatever your appetite is, If you don't learn how to
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 3: control what you crave, eventually what you crave will control you.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 7: Khalees, never in.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 3: My life have I wanted someone to keep their nose
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 3: out of other people's business more than you.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 7: Please give Khalees Crowder the sweet sounds and the hammer tones.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 17: Oh, now you are the donkey of the day.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: You are the donkey.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I want to see him on
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: Vlad TV. I don't know if I want to see
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: him on Drink Champs. Because both could be, you know,
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 3: equally as entertaining. But then I want to see him
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 3: sit with a psychotherapist like Elliot Connie.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 7: I just need somebody. To get him to tell his
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 7: life story.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 2: What is the charge? Is it harassment? What was the charge?
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 7: To be honest with you, I ain't even care.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 2: It has to be harassment. You sniffing somebody's ass, yo.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 7: Without consent. Yeah, like, no.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 2: That has to be some type of assault or harassment.
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 7: But that's my question. Because you can walk by somebody
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 7: and go, let me smell it. But that's not a harassment. No,
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 7: that's just your ass because you don't wash it.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 2: But if you continually do that.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 7: If you just walking by.
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 2: What is the charge?
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: If you walk by somebody and you smell ass without
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 3: trying to smell ass.
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: That's a problem.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 7: I'm just curious, what is the charge?
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 2: It's a sex offense, man.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 6: That's my private area and I'm in the store shopping
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 6: or whatever and you walking up.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: To me like behind me. Yeah, you got your nose
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 2: in my ass.
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 7: Hell no.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's some type of sexual offense.
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 7: It's definitely a sex offense. You're going to have a
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 7: lot of ass to sniff in jail.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 2: Sure is.
• 1:12:55

• 1:14:24
  Speaker 6: You know, I ain't never nothing, but I never stopped
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 6: doing nothing. Like, I never, I'm always showing up.
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 7: You said something earlier that I think, ugh.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: I stopped going live.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: But I think it's the other way around because.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 6: It's like, that was the first time I did that
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 6: for a job. Like, I would go live and wild
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 6: the fuck out, but like, not for a job.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 7: Can you not curse, please? Oh, my God. Maybe that's
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 7: one thing you should do, stop cursing. Yeah.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 3: But no, that's not true because there's been times that
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 3: you've gone live in the past and it has affected
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 3: certain jobs.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: Maybe you've never had.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 3: I guess a permanent job like this for so long,
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 3: but you've had jobs that is affected by you going live.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah.
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 6: Okay. I ain't stopped, though. I just stopped going live
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 6: about this job.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: So that's good. Yeah, we can say that. Yeah, I
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: stopped going live.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 7: I think for myself, I don't, before, I know in
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 7: a lot of businesses, people feel forced to have to
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 7: go out after work. Like after five o'clock, you have
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 7: to go to the Christmas party. You have to go
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 7: out and get drinks. You have to.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 2: I don't do that. If I don't want to go,
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 2: I'm not going. Yeah. It is what it is.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 7: If I don't feel it, if I got to go
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 7: home with my kids, I'm not doing it.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 2: Got you.
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 7: What about you, Sharla? I've never had a problem with.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 3: This, maybe because I'm a little off, but I think
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 3: the biggest problem people have in corporate America or any
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 3: corporate environment is biting your tongue. That's one thing I
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 3: tell people. What's the point of not speaking up in
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 3: a corporate environment? I don't like talking behind people's back.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 3: I don't like expressing myself. frustrations without talking to the
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 3: person I'm frustrated about. Like, why can't you take things
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 3: to your supervisor? Why can't you take things to your,
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 3: you know, boss? If you got a problem with a
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 3: co-worker that you're working with, why can't you express that
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 3: and have the conversation like i'm the type person like
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 3: and i've been fired what four times from radio i
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: would rather get fired expressing everything i thought was wrong
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 3: as opposed to biting my tongue and then when you
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 3: get fired you upset because.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 7: You should have said you should have said something or you.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 3: Felt like you compromised yourself or you conformed for what
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 3: i i i don't even i don't even like talking
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 3: to people who can't go talk to the person that
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: they're upset about Don't bring your frustrations and shit to
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 3: me because I'm not the... I'm speaking from radio. I'm
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 3: not the program director. I'm not the operations manager. Go
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: talk to that person that you have a problem with.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: You ain't tell him to stop cussing? Stop cussing.
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 7: I do need to stop cussing.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 3: And by the way, me and Embiid, it's tag team
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 3: back again. I know.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: Me and Embiid will see stuff. Embiid will be like,
• 1:16:56

• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: I know. One of us coming with it. You know
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying? It's just a matter of who want
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: to start the razzle or the dazzle first.

• 1:17:48
  Speaker 7: See what I'm saying?
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about.
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 8: And the reason is because in where I work, especially
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 8: in the part of corporate that I work in, When
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 8: you advocate for yourself, you're seen as argumentative and aggressive
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 8: as a black woman. So if it means me being
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 8: labeled as argumentative and aggressive for advocating for myself and
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 8: not letting you handle me the way that you think
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 8: that you're going to handle me, then that's what I'm.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: Going to be.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 2: Word up.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 7: Respect.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Mama.
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 1: Nothing but respect.
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 2: Hello, who's this?
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 4: This is Shy.
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 5: Hey, Shy.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 2: Where you calling from?
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 8: Florida.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 2: Florida or Park?
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 9: Tampa.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 7: Okay. So we're asking, what's something you stopped doing once
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 7: you realized professionalism was never going to protect you anyway?
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 8: Stop saying how I feel. Because sometimes how I feel
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 8: doesn't change what corporate does anyway.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 4: So some of the things I keep to myself.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 11: That's true.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: That's what I told you. That's the number one thing
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: in any corporate environment. People be biting their tongue. I
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: don't understand why. I don't get it.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 14: Because it's never going to change nothing.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 9: Sometimes corporate does.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 4: What they want.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 7: That's true, too. You know what I realized, too, Shai,
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 7: when it comes to corporate sometimes? When I used to
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 7: have a conversation, I put it in writing there. I
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 7: put everything in email or text. That's right. I do
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 7: that all the time. No matter what it is, if
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 7: somebody stole your idea, if somebody stole your thought, or
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 7: you have a problem or issue, I put it in
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 7: some type of writing. So you have a paper trail.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 2: It covers your ass later on.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 7: That's true, too.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 13: Sure.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 4: For your what? Golf team.
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 9: Golf team. Golf team.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: What is the gap?
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 4: Shasha47?
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 7: Shasha47?
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 15: Shasha47?
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 17: No, 4377.
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 14: Oh, 4377.
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 4: Thank you, my man.
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 7: So when people like that, they got to explain why
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 7: they're putting their cash app out there. Like, you know
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 7: what I mean?
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: It's a golf club.
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 7: For kids and they need some supplies. They got to tell, explain.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 7: She didn't even sell the store.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 2: They just like, yo, here's my cash app. I'm going
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 2: to get some bread.
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you, this is the, I guarantee you the
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 3: number one thing in any corporate environment people regret is
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 3: not Speaking up. I promise you, yo.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 2: 800-585-1051.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 7: What's something you stopped doing once you realized professionalism was
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 7: never going to protect you?
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 2: Anyway, let's discuss.
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 7: It's the Breakfast Club.
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 4: 800-585-1051.
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 7: Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne the guy.
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 7: We are The Breakfast Club. We open up the phone
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 7: lines 800-585-1051. We're asking, what's something you stopped doing once
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 7: you realized professionalism was never going to protect you anyway?
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 7: And this came from Aaliyah H. Gibbs on Threads. Now,
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 7: she did this a bunch of, a couple of months ago,
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 7: but it seems like it picked back up recently.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 2: And hello, who's this?
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 16: Hi, it's Natay.
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: Hey, Natay, where you calling from?
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 16: Hey, Queen.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 9: I'm from Akron, Ohio, home of LeBron James.
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 7: Hey.
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 2: Talk to us, mama.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 17: Yes, so the thing I stopped doing in the workforce
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 17: was being Becky at work.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 7: Being Becky.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 2: Being Becky at work, trying to code switch.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 17: Yes.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 19: Yes, so they want you to answer the phones a
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 19: certain way, act a certain way, walk in the break
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 19: room and ask everybody if they had coffee.
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 9: A certain way.
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 13: You know, once you turn that off, just be yourself.
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 7: I'm so sorry, man. You said Becky. I started thinking Plies.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 2: I thought so, too. I was like, who the hell
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 2: is that shit?
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: Why is you doing.
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 17: That at work?
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 2: No, I'm talking about Becky with.
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 4: The good hair.
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 2: Okay, got you. Nicole's switching crazy.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 7: Got you.
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 9: Absolutely, just be yourself.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 4: Once you realize that, be yourself with your partners.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 9: Absolutely.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. All right.
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 9: You ain't got to turn down to be nobody at work.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 8: Definitely turn your Becky down and turn your Keisha up.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 2: Period.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: And what she said, she said, you know, being yourself
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: will help you go farther. But guess what?
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 3: Even if it gets you fired, you're not going to
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 3: be tripping because you went out the way you wanted
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 3: to go out.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: I'd rather go out being me. than trying to be
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: somebody else.
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, but let's be honest. Exactly.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 7: Some people do that because they need the job, right?
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 7: It's not like they could just quit and say, I'm
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 7: out of here. They need to pay rent.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 3: Do you believe in God or do you believe in
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 3: the job?
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Man, I believe in God and myself. I never
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 2: let him get me out of my myself again.
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 5: There you go, mama.
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 7: Thank you.
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 2: Can't get too comfortable at a job. Job security ain't guaranteed.
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 10: Never.
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 7: Hello, who's this?
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 4: What's going on, brother? This is K from Toledo, Ohio.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 2: Good morning. Okay, Ohio. Have you on the line?
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 5: Talk to us, brother.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 2: What's your thoughts?
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 4: I stopped going with you for real. At the end
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 4: of the day, like I tell people all the time,
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 4: at the end of the day, you're not your name.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 4: When you got a problem, they say, what's your work number?
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 4: So at the end of the day, you're just another number.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: That is true.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 4: I stopped doing the, hey, how are you today? I
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 4: love you. They were happy. No, it's just what I've done.
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: But I don't understand why you can't say peace. I
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: say peace to everybody.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 4: Peace.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: Good morning.
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 7: How are you? It was a lovely day we're having.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 4: But when I get outside to work, it's, oh, what up, though?
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 20: What's good, dog?
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 4: It worked, too, because I ain't going to do nothing
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 4: for you.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 7: You know what's so funny about that? Thanks, brother.
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: White people are probably like, it's corny-ass dudes.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 11: Damn.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 3: Damn.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 7: Because they think black people have a certain level of cool.
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: You're like, what the hell are they ever having? They're like, oh,
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: it's corn balls. You know what I'm saying?
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 7: I don't know if you guys see it too, but
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 7: on the flip side, I'll see white people come up
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 7: to me and try to be cool.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 2: Hey, what's up, guy?
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 7: Yo, did you see that?
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 2: Did you go to the Hov concert? Of course they
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 2: do it.
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 7: You start seeing them and say, come on now, come
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 7: on now.
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 2: Yo, I walk down the hallway with Charlamagne.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 6: Some of the white people who will be coming up
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 6: to him because they know he do the piece with
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 6: the fist.
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: Yo, they be like, yo, yes.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 6: And he's like, yo, all you got to do is
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 6: just like, they be so hyped to fist bump this man.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 3: And that's my favorite thing to do. When they come
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 3: with that, I reach out my hand and shake it
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 3: just to confuse them. They be trying to figure out
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 3: which one to do.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: I see that every single time I'm walking with this. Stupid.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 1: Be yourself in the workplace, man. And don't be afraid.
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 3: To speak up for yourself, especially if you love what
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 3: you do and you care about the job that you're
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 3: at and you want to see that environment be better.
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: Why would you keep your mouth closed?
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 7: Never bite your tongue. Always be honest with yourself because
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 7: you never know when it's over. And if you have
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 7: to leave, you want to leave knowing that you gave
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 7: it your all.
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 2: You got a moral?
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 7: I just said it.
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 2: That's it?
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 7: Yes. And wash your ass.
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 2: Definitely.
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 7: Just wash your ass after doing it. I feel like
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 7: whenever you talk, I need to tell you that.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 6: Yeah, especially when you come to work and be.
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 7: But you know what?
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 2: You know who's always themselves? No matter what?
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 12: Jill.
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 1: Oh, hell yeah.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 2: Like, she's always.

  Speaker 6: Like, I can tell that she don't code switch when
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 6: she round us.
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 7: She don't code.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: Jill needs to code switch.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 2: Yes, she do, yo. She the same way. Same way
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 2: on each floor in every department, wherever she at.
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: She's also a cancer, too, by the way.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 7: Oh, she is?
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 2: Salute to Jill. She works at Penn Sales. Hilarious.

• 1:25:12
  Speaker 2: Brought to you by Top Dog Law.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 5: On The Breakfast Club.
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 2: Talk to me.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 18: So 21 Savage, he sat down for a conversation with
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 18: Pete Davidson on Pete Davidson's show that he has on Netflix,
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 18: a vodcast.
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 16: This was his most recent episode.
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 18: And they talked about the dad life because, you know,
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 18: Pete Davidson welcomed his first baby girl not too long ago.
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 18: And 21 Savage welcomed another child, but with a lotto.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 18: So they're talking a bit about it. Let's get into
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 18: 21 Savage talking about being a hands on father.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 7: Me and Lotto just had a baby.
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 2: Congratulations, man.
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 7: They be talking about that.
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but at least that's like happy shit.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 17: That's just people being happy for you.
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 7: I mean, this is your third, fourth kid? Fourth, yeah.
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 7: Isn't it the best?
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just had my first kid.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 10: Oh.
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 7: She's almost nine months old.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 2: Oh, damn.
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 7: Best feeling ever, right? It's unreal, and it's like all
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 7: the shit I cared about is so fucking stupid.
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 2: See, like, my first three, I was, like, younger.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 7: Running around in the street. It was different.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 1: Like now it's like I'm in the house.
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 17: I had a baby all night, bank of her bottles,
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 17: changing her diapers. So it's kind of like a different
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 17: bond type thing. As I got older, I developed that
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 17: bond better with my other kids, but just from day one.
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 17: I was around from day one, but I wasn't as
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 17: attentive to them.
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 7: You completely understand what he means.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 2: Love that.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 7: Totally get it.
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 16: Maturing as a parent is a real thing from what
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 16: I'm learning from you guys.
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 2: Especially when you have kids younger.
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 16: You know what's crazy?
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 18: I was thinking about this when I was watching our
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 18: conversation yesterday. When you get older and you become a
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 18: grown adult, you think about your parents differently. But have
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 18: y'all ever went to your parents and been like, talk
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 18: to me about what it was like for you as
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 18: a parent? I've never just asked my mom, what was
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 18: it like being a parent and figuring stuff out?
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 2: But I understand.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 7: Now when I look back at some of the things
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 7: that they told me not to do or the things
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 7: that they did or how they parented me, I understand
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 7: now being a parent.
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 3: I think you get a lot out of having conversations
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 3: with your parents about the life they lived before they
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 3: were your parents. And I think sometimes we forget that.
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 3: Our parents had a whole other life before we came
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 3: into the picture. And I think when you get to
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: know them as people, you'll understand, you know, maybe some
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 3: of the things that you went through when you were younger.
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 7: Being a parent never stops. Like, my dad and my
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 7: mother called me every day to this day to tell
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 7: me about something.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 2: You know, my dad is.
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 7: He has... I got cameras all over the crib and outside,
• 1:27:33

  Speaker 5: He's watching.
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 2: He's still protecting. He still makes sure.
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 3: How did they feel when you told the world that
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 3: you didn't know how to wash your ass?
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 7: I'm sure that's something they taught you when you were young.
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 2: I know his mother was disgusted.
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 7: It had to be.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 1: It had to be.
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 2: What are they saying? We don't discuss everything.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 4: No.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 7: They know that some of the show is A.I., oh
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 7: I know that's.
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 18: My answer you lied to your mom and your dad
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 18: talking about that with A.I.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 2: And they probably believe you too absolutely A.I.
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 3: Is there for ass infections it might be your fault
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 3: that's crazy I hope your daddy ask you about that
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 3: I hope he.
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 6: Doesn't you know the craziest thing is I know more
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 6: about my dad's life before having kids than my mom's
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 6: I never that question that you just going back to
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 6: your question do we ever just ask our parents like
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 6: what parenting was like for them Um, at very young ages.
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 6: I never asked my mom, but my father, me and
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 6: my father talk about everything.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 2: So I know more than parents. I definitely got to
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 2: talk to my mom.
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 18: But my mom is so particular about when she tells
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 18: me about certain things. Like I learned more about my
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 18: mom's life before me from my family members.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: My mom brings it.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 18: Up when she's like talking me through something or trying
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 18: to like teach me something or like just randomly like
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 18: we went out for her birthday she was a little
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 18: she was a little lit and she told me something
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 18: i was like mom ew i did not need to
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 18: know that but it started a conversation yeah yeah i
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 18: am yeah Yeah.
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 2: And she's like, I'm going to tell you this.
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 7: Exactly.
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 3: That is the fun part of life, too, though. And
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 3: I'm envious you already experienced that because you got kids
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 3: in your 20s. But like, you know, as your child,
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 3: like my oldest is 18. She's in college. The conversations
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 3: have just naturally changed.
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 4: Of course.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 3: Adult, because she's 18, growing up.
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 7: My 24-year-old, my 22-year-old, and now with the 13-year-old who
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 7: hangs out with Madison Moore, she's a lot older, so
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 7: she wants to be around for those conversations. When all
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 7: the kids are playing, she's like, nah, I'll stay here.
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 7: So she wants to stay here, which I'm fine with
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 7: because it teaches her early.
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 2: She's maturing, too.
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 7: Yeah, she's maturing. That's what I'm going to teach you.
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 18: They also got into the fact that, well, you know,
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 18: Pete Davidson takes his breaks from social media and just
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 18: doesn't be on them at all, like right now. But
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 18: he's often in the headlines when he was here. Remember
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 18: he talked to us about the fact that, like, the
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 18: fact that they were even expecting a baby. TMZ got
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 18: word of it and called him. Like, he's always in
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 18: the headlines. He says, 21 does a good job of
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 18: doing the complete opposite. And they talk about protecting your
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 18: kids from, like, all of the madness of working in entertainment.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 16: Let's take a listen to that.
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 3: Having, you know, four kids, I'm kind of curious, how
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 3: do you protect them from the bulls * * t
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 3: that like comes with our sort of line of work.
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 17: I'm very like open with them. And I try as
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 17: much as to like, let them be regular, no private schools.
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 17: You can go out with your friends. Like you could
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 17: do all the stuff that I got to do that
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 17: build character. Cause I don't want to have like kids
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 17: that are like too like sheltered.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: Cause it's like, They don't really develop character that way.
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 17: Like they're going to be like introverted, like just boring kids.
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 17: Like if you just, here go a tablet all day
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 17: and just hang with us all day. Hang with your
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 17: parents all day. Like I ain't want to be around
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 17: my parents at all. When I was young, I wanted
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 17: to go explore, go out with my friends. So I
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 17: kind of like trying to do that.
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 6: And then some, some households got a balance of it.
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 6: Like I love to be around my parents, but I
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 6: wanted to go outside too. And I did both, you
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 6: know what I mean? Like my son, he 14, he
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 6: got the best of both worlds, you know, cause I
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 6: was younger when I had him. So he know what
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 6: it's like to be broke. He know what it's like to,
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 6: you know what I mean? Just to live in a
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 6: hood and have to, you know what I mean? But
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 6: now he knows different. Like, I love what he said.
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 6: That's just my testament to what he said. Like, you
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 6: don't want them to be too sheltered.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 2: I love that.
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 6: He said that he'd go a tablet. Let's hang with
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 6: your kids. No, Teach them to go out there and explore,
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 6: like go outside, go and have human to human interaction.
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 2: Things like that.
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 18: Well, speaking of going outside as we wrap the latest,

  Speaker 7: did not say that. Yes, she did.
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 16: You didn't say she wiped you the first day, y'all.

• 1:37:05
  Speaker 2: We took a shower. But I'm just going to say this.
• 1:37:07

• 1:37:15
  Speaker 18: see my underarms.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 18: You remember when I first came back here and he
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 18: used to say that I had all this hair under
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 18: my underarms?
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 2: You did.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 16: People still come up to me and be like, I
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 16: don't have hair under my underarms.
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 2: She didn't then and she don't now. They think I'm bald.
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 2: They think I'm crazy. You're bald.
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 16: They think I have hair under my underarms. They think
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 16: I'm always ashy.
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 2: You got hair under your arms.
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 5: You are always ashy.
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 2: You're acting like that wasn't you.
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 9: Oh, my God.
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 1: I don't deny what my face used to look like.
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 1: You can't.
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 2: We saw it.
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 16: She definitely grew up.
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 1: Baby, we saw the struggle. And we saw your grow up.
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 2: We saw the fight.
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 16: The left and the right side of your face was
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 16: fighting each other hard.
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 1: They saw when you was bald-headed. They saw when you
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 1: had hair on your arm.
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 7: They saw when you had a little stubble on your chin.
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 2: Stop on my chin.
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 16: You got stubble.
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 7: On your chin now?
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 19: Wow.
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 16: Oh my God. My mom be telling me be nice
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 16: to you and I don't understand why.
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 2: We really supposed to be a family.
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 16: This is Eastside High.
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 11: Don't take this.
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 7: Scarf off now. Now you're just going to steal Jeff's
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 7: stuff again?

  Speaker 2: Wow. That's crazy.
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 11: This is crazy.
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 1: This is crazy. This is crazy, yo.
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 7: How do you leave with a positivity after all that?
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 3: Well, let's talk about the art of detachment, okay? The
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 3: art of detachment. Nothing belongs to me. It's all an experience,
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 3: all right? True peace begins when we stop trying to
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 3: own moments.
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 7: People, or things.
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 3: Life becomes lighter when we understand that everything we encounter
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 3: is simply passing through us and not meant to be possessed,
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 3: all right? The pain we endure, the joy we feel,
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 3: all of it is part of a fleeting experience meant
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 3: to shape us, not define us. When we learn to
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 3: observe without clinging, we stop suffering over what leaves and
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 3: start appreciating what is. Nothing is truly ours, and that
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 3: is what makes every moment sacred. To live without attachment
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 3: is not to live without love, but to love with
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 3: freedom and awareness.
• 1:38:59
  Speaker 7: Have a great day, y'all. Breakfast Club, bitches! We all
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 7: finished or y'all done?
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 5: Wake you up. Wake that ass up. Program your alarm
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 5: to power 105.1 on iHeartRadio.
