After we just had a 58-degree day two days ago, I'm confused. But it is still January. We celebrating 58-degree days now? I was, man. It's still winter. It felt good to get out there in 58 degrees. Sometimes it snows here until, like, March and April. That is true. So, you know.
Starting point is 00:02:55 But it was just 58 degrees. I thought it was pretty, you know, pretty nice out. And then, bong, we're here with the snow. Eh, it's light. Now, yesterday I had a really nice time. They had a dinner honoring me. Shout out to my boy, Scotty. He owns the studio, Engine's late. Now, yesterday I had a really nice time. They had a dinner honoring me. Shout out to my boy, Scotty. He owns the studio, Engine Room Audio.
Starting point is 00:03:07 It was like a post-Grammy dinner because there's a lot of people that are still in town. So I appreciate everybody for showing up and coming out. No ID was there. I haven't seen him in a while. Punch from TDE was there, still celebrating their five Grammy wins. And Natina. You know, we have a friend named Natina who works at Def Jam, but her name is really supposed to be pronounced Natina.
Starting point is 00:03:29 Is it real? Yeah. She said she got tired of correcting people from when she was seven years old, so she just lets people call her Natina. Oh. Well, I'm going to call her Natina from now on. Yeah, that's a shame, though, when your name is pronounced a certain way, but you just say, I give up.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Everyone pronounces it wrong. Well, I do that to my wife all the time. Her name is Gia, and they call her Gia. Everybody calls her Gia. Every day, all day. I don't care how many times I say Gia. She responds to Gia also. Yeah, she does respond to her.
Starting point is 00:03:51 I usually correct people when they call her Gia, though. I'll be like, no, her name is Gia. Well, what happened at the dinner? Was there any fights? Anybody have sex at the studio or anything? No, it was like a private dinner. It was at a loft. So what they did was it's like an Airbnb loft space, so they just rented it out, and it
Starting point is 00:04:04 was a really nice dinner in the city. You know, we can't afford to have those big homes in Manhattan. Nobody got drunk and cursed anybody out? Shout out to the chef, Damon Day. No, it was a nice, beautiful dinner, and I knew everybody that was there. So did you stay at the Airbnb after? I mean, it was already rented out. You said it was a nice place?
Starting point is 00:04:21 No. Or you went home? I like going home. Any arguments about the Super Bowl? Anything? No, there was no arguments. Everybody was it was a nice place. No. Or you went home. I like going home. Any arguments about the Super Bowl? Anything? No, there was no arguments. Everybody was just having a good time. The best thing to do nowadays if you know somebody from Philly and you want to really just start an argument to start an argument. My boy
Starting point is 00:04:33 Ryan Press was there from Philly. Is he from Philly? You should have asked him. You should have said, hey, if you could pick one thing out of these two. One thing. Okay. Let me think. Meek Mill, released from jail, no parole, no probation, no nothing. Are the Eagles winning the Super Bowl this Sunday? Which one would you pick? You got friends from Philly?
Starting point is 00:04:50 Put them under pressure this week and ask them that question. Philly hasn't been this close in a long time. Since McNabb and T.O. And I think that was against the Patriots if I remember correctly. Yeah, but then Meek Mill, you know, he's the only... You gotta let Meek Mill out.
Starting point is 00:05:06 You say that, but you know, some diehard Eagle fans, I had some diehard Eagle fans be like, look, he only got two to four. He be aight. Nah.
Starting point is 00:05:12 I'm telling you. Ask your people from Philly this week. We have a diehard Philly fan in the room right now. And he said, he'll be aight. He got two to four years. He got two to four years.
Starting point is 00:05:22 That's what he told me yesterday. Nah, you gotta let me go. That's a shame. I'm impressing all my people from Philly all week years. He got two to four years. That's what he told me yesterday. Nah, you got to let me go. That's a shame. Let me go. I've been pressing all my people from Philly all week long. I'm telling you, that's the question to ask people from Philly all week. You got to let me go, man. Absolutely let me go.
Starting point is 00:05:32 Call QDZ. I'm going to ask QDZ. I don't want to give him no fair warning that I'm asking him this question, though. Just call him. Just call him and ask him. Absolutely. My goodness. All right.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Well, we have Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum. I like this guy. He'll be joining us this morning. He's running for governor of Florida. He's running for governorassee Mayor Andrew Gillum. I like this guy. He'll be joining us this morning. He's running for governor of Florida. He's running for governor for Florida. So we'll kick with him this morning. He got a lot of good things to say.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Yeah. So we'll kick with him a little bit. All right. And then we got front page news. What we talking about, Yee? We are going to do a little test with you guys. Now, they're saying in Iowa, they're going to require students to pass a citizenship exam to graduate high school. I want to see if you guys could pass. And it's the same test they give to immigrants. I'm not going to require students to pass a citizenship exam to graduate high school. I want to see if you guys could pass.
Starting point is 00:06:05 And it's the same test they give to immigrants. I'm not going to lie. I know an immigrant that took the test and he was telling me what he had to study. I didn't know some of that stuff. I ain't going to lie. We can start that already. That's my... All right.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Anyway, we'll do it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now, in sports, Blake Griffin has been traded to Pistons, to the Pistons.
Starting point is 00:06:29 He left the Clippers, which is surprising because he just signed a $75 million deal, what, less than a year ago? $75 million? I thought it was like $171 million. I don't know what it was. $75 million? I thought it was like 75, four years ago. $75 million? That's light. Now, at my dinner last night, everybody was talking about that Blake Griffin trade. That's a hell of a culture shock.
Starting point is 00:06:46 To go from the Los Angeles area to Detroit? Jesus Christ. Is that a win for Detroit? I don't know if that bitch boy can survive. That's definitely a win for Detroit. That's a hell of a culture shock, man. That's a hell of an environment change. LA to Detroit?
Starting point is 00:06:57 He right. It was $175 million, but he'd be all right. I think they'll do good. I think that's a pickup for the Detroit business. And in other sports news, Big Pop 87 says, give me that chip, Meek can sit in jail. And Monique Jones 1 says, Meek Mill is willing to take that 2-4 for the team.
Starting point is 00:07:11 I'm sure. Hashtag Go Eagles. Hell no. That's what we're asking the question. I'm telling you, run up on people from Philly all week and ask them, would you rather Meek Mill get out of jail, no probation, no parole, or the Eagles win this Sunday? Get Meek out.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Now let's talk about what's going on in Iowa. Now in Iowa, they are going to require students to pass a citizenship exam in order to graduate. So I wanted to see if you guys could possibly pass. The test they're going to give is the same one immigrants have to pass to become U.S. citizens. Now, the Iowa test will ask questions from a set of 100. You have to answer 10 questions. So in order to successfully pass the test, you have to achieve a score of at least 60%. I took it this morning, and fortunately I passed.
Starting point is 00:07:48 So let me see if you guys would pass. Oh, boy. The House of Representatives has how many voting members? I don't know. Four. 435. That's what I meant. Okay, what is the name of the national anthem?
Starting point is 00:08:00 The Star-Spangled Banner. That is correct. I knew that one, too. What piece of land did the United States buy from France in 1803? I don't know. New York. The Louisiana Territory. Come on, guys.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Who is in charge of the executive branch? The president. That's correct. And how many U.S. senators are there? I don't know. 232. 100. Damn it, man.
Starting point is 00:08:22 All right, guys. Well, you know. Would I get in the country or not? No, definitely. I bet y'all know this one. Definitely would. I bet you guys know this one. When is the last day you can send in federal income tax forms?
Starting point is 00:08:33 I have an accountant. I have an accountant, so I get an extension. April 15th. Oh, I don't know. You guys should know that. April 15th every year. Yeah, I have no idea. And sometimes they extend it if it's the weekend to the Monday after.
Starting point is 00:08:42 I get an extension. It's amazing. I was reading my Daily Affirmation book from Ryan Holiday today, and today's Daily Affirmation is you don't have to stay on top of everything. Okay? All right? You guys should not even be citizens. I'm just saying, one of the most powerful things you can do as a human being
Starting point is 00:08:56 in our hyper-connected 24-7 media world is say, I don't know, or more provocatively, I don't care. That was in my Daily Affirmation today. There you go. Ryan Holiday. All right. All right. All right, now the Cleveland Indians are getting rid of their Chief Wahoo logo, finally. You know, it's been very controversial.
Starting point is 00:09:12 So starting in 2019, the team's jersey are no longer going to feature the Native American caricature. A lot of people have said that is offensive and racist, and they just announced yesterday that they will be getting rid of it. Now, they've been shifting away from using that symbol in recent years. And right now they're saying they ultimately have decided the logo is no longer appropriate for on-field use in Major League Baseball. So they're going to wait until 2019 to give fans and the team time to transition. And then after that, fans will still be able to buy it at souvenir shops in the stadium and at select retailers. But it won't be available online.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Now, the reason they're doing that is because if they stop selling the logo, they would lose the trademark rights. Well, one thing the white men know how to do is get rid of Indians. I'm surprised it took so long to get rid of that mascot. I'm going to be totally honest with you. Now they got to do the Redskins. They got to do the Washington Redskins. It has to be next. They took great pride in getting rid of Native Americans at one point in our country.
Starting point is 00:10:03 I don't know why it took them so long to get rid of this mascot. My goodness. All right. Well, that's front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent. Hit us up right now.

Starting point is 00:16:26 Alright, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up now. Ye, we got rumors on the way? Yes, find out who says he has 22 girlfriends and they all know about each other. Also, Kim Kardashian. Why are people mad at her now? We'll tell you what happened on social media.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Alright, we'll get into that when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Kim K.
Starting point is 00:16:57 This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. Listen up. Well, Kim Kardashian was breaking the internet again yesterday, I guess. Now, people are upset because she had cornrows and she called them Bo Derek braids. Here she is on her snap. So, guys, I did Bo Derek braids and I'm really into it. All right.
Starting point is 00:17:24 The problem with this is, of course, those braids aren't necessarily Bo Derek braids, and I'm really into it. All right, the problem with this is, of course, those braids aren't necessarily Bo Derek braids. They date back to at least 3000 BC, and those were back particularly in Ethiopia. So crediting Bo Derek for these braids had the internet in an uproar yesterday. Are y'all going to fall for the same trick every couple years, the same gag? Or maybe it might be
Starting point is 00:17:46 every year at this point from a Jenna Kardashian. Well, yes. Kylie Jenner has done this before as well. The same thing. Why do we fall for it every time? Clearly yesterday, Kim K was online yesterday seeking attention. She was. If it wasn't the braids, it was all the nude photos. It was naked. After that, she did post some nude
Starting point is 00:18:02 photos as quote unquote Bo West. And then Perez Hilton said no to her look with the braids. And then Lindsay Lohan said, I am confused. And then Kim Kardashian clapped back at her and said, Lindsay Lohan, you know what's confusing? Your sudden foreign accent. Then Kim Kardashian posted a picture of herself on the phone and said, hey, can I get zero F's please? Thanks.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Kim K was online seeking attention all day yesterday. It was even a picture of floating around a Kanye sitting around lonely in a diner or something. Like, it was an attention ploy. It's after the Grammys. Come on, man. Now, never forget, though, that Kim Kardashian had said that she doesn't want to pose naked anymore. Check this out. They weren't going to show my ass crack or my nipple. This is full porn.
Starting point is 00:18:45 I just am never getting naked again. Check this out. They weren't going to show my ass crack or my nipple. This is full porn. I just am never getting naked again. I don't want people to be like, oh, she's good for us, you know, being naked. And this is why they stay on top. Drop one of the bombs for the Kardashian clan. But they said the ratings were down a lot, though. Yes. And then we fall for their publicity stunts every single freaking time.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Congratulations to them. Well, I don't know if that's going to make people watch the show. Now, Delicious went on social media and she said really Instagram. Now, let's be honest, Kim Kardashian looks great and I love her in her hustle, so please note she isn't my problem at all. But we all know if African American models were to post this in the precious Instagram
Starting point is 00:19:18 community, what would happen? I'm curious, guys. What do you think would happen if an Afro-American posted this? Remember what happened to Rihanna's account when she did this? Please don't misunderstand me. When did Rihanna do that? I missed that. No, remember they took Rihanna's Instagram down for a while.
Starting point is 00:19:30 Remember she quit Instagram. She was out of here. She had a nipple out? Yeah, I think she had a nipple out. She didn't quit. I missed that one. She didn't quit. I think they pulled it.
Starting point is 00:19:39 And remember, last time Kim K did this, I reported her. You flagged it. You flagged it. I flagged it and reported it 10 times. Because it's mad people. When I post fly. Flagged it. You flagged it. I flagged it and reported it 10 times. Because it's mad people. When I post flyers like that, they take mine down. They need to take that down.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Because that's not fair. That's not right. Don't take my flyer down. And that's exactly, you sound just like Delicious. Yes, Delicious. That's exactly what she's saying. I ain't mad at you. I flagged it. Why is it okay when she...
Starting point is 00:19:58 You flagged Kim Kardashian half naked? Yes. Why? Because when I post my flyers, my clubs that I do... For the strip clubs. You be on there half naked? No, I don't be on there half naked? Yes. Because when I post my flyers, my clubs that I do, and they got a... You be on there half naked? No, I don't be on there
Starting point is 00:20:07 half naked, but they'll post a girl in a bikini and they'll take mine down immediately. Remember when we were in New Orleans and Envy had on that shirt
Starting point is 00:20:14 that was see-through with his nipples out? They definitely took that down. They should have flagged that. Nobody wanted to see that. Nobody wanted to see
Starting point is 00:20:20 Envy in a shirt. So why is it okay for Kim Kardashian and Envy Kim? Exactly. I would much rather see Kim K in a shirt than Envy in a shirt. I'm going to flag thatahn? Exactly. I would much rather see Kim K in a sheer shirt than Andy in a sheer shirt.
Starting point is 00:20:26 I'm going to flag that picture right now. I'm sure Kim K knows somebody on Instagram, by the way. Yeah, I'm pretty sure she does too. I'm sure she called him beforehand and said, I'm posting this picture, by the way. Hold on, I'm sure that happened. Ten of them. All right, Quincy Jones says he has 22 girlfriends. Report.
Starting point is 00:20:39 And he says they all know about each other in GQ magazine. Inappropriate. He's 84 years old and he said he's had his fill of committed relationships. He said, I was told not to marry actresses or singers. I ended up with two actresses and a superstar model because he's been married three times. Now, he also has four Broadway plays, ten movies, six albums, and a documentary in the works.
Starting point is 00:20:57 So he's very busy, and he says that he has women in all different places. He has girlfriends everywhere. Cape Town, Cairo, Stockholm. He said she's coming in next week. Brazil. He's got a great girl from Shanghai, Cairo. He said these women range from age 28

They're 13 years smarter than we are. He also said there's an age limit for him. He said buzzes if they're too old, but you'd be surprised. These women, the young ones, are
Starting point is 00:21:27 aggressive now. They're fearless all over the world. He said, there's no upside to dating a woman my age. You gotta be kidding. I got me some technology out there. Keep fat and old away from here. Quincy Jones is 84 years old. Whatever helps him make it through the day, let him have it. Drop on the clues bombs for Quincy Jones.
Starting point is 00:21:44 22 girlfriends. By the way, all of have it. Drop on the clues bombs for Quincy Jones. 22 girlfriends. By the way, all of those girlfriends are null and void if his penis doesn't get hard at his age, okay? He said technology. Well, not to mention, he's one of the architects of Off the Wall and Thriller. Quincy Jones deserves all the girlfriends that royalties from Thriller can buy. Alright, well I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Rumor
Starting point is 00:21:59 Report. Q! Hey! Q! Alright. Quincy. When we come back, we got front page news when we talking about Yeezy. We are gonna be talking about getting a divorce online. Now that's possible. Okay. We'll get into all that when we come back. It's called unfollowing somebody. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Tell you something, man. I'm gonna tell you something. I am very envious of everybody who went to see Black Panther last night. In LA, right? In LA. Yeah. I almost did the irresponsible thing and went out there, but I knew that wouldn't be responsible because, you know, I got a career and stuff. Oh, I'm definitely going to see it here.
Starting point is 00:22:32 I'm going to have me a little get-together because y'all are having too much fun with your little dashikis on watching Black Panther, okay? I want in. Calm down. I can't even eat breakfast yet because I got this little salty taste in my mouth watching y'all have all this fun. You got salty in your mouth?
Starting point is 00:22:44 All right. See what I'm saying? All right. Well, let's get in some front page news. Now, Blake Griffin has been traded to Detroit. What up, dawg?
Starting point is 00:22:51 Poor guy. Why poor guy? To go from L.A. to Detroit, Detroit salute to Detroit salute to everybody in the D, but you can't act like
Starting point is 00:22:57 that's not a huge culture shock, man. To go from L.A. to Detroit and you're getting traded in the middle of winter? Whoa.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Well, he needs to sit his ass down and play basketball. He's going to have a good time. Detroit is popping right now. Detroit's cold right now. You ain't been living in LA the past 10 years like Bage Griffin has. My goodness. Now let's talk about Iowa. Yes, in Iowa they're going to require students to pass a citizenship
Starting point is 00:23:19 exam to graduate if you're in high school. Now the test is the same one immigrants have to pass to become U.S. citizens. And let's see how much you guys know. Okay. Don't ask me the same questions you asked last hour. Give me something to do. Alright, hold on, hold on.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Who did the United States fight in World War II? I don't know. I think... I don't know. I don't know either. My dumb ass was about to say Vietnam, but that was a whole other world. Russia? No, it wasn't Russia.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Japan? I don't know. Japan's one of them. Oh, I see. Japan, Germany, and Italy. Oh, it was three teams? It's not teams, man. No, they played against three teams in World War II.
Starting point is 00:23:56 Okay, here's a multiple choice for you guys. Okay, which war was not fought by the United States in the 1900s? Afghanistan War, Vietnam War, Korean War, or World War I? I don't know. Afghanistan. That's correct, Envy. Oh, I got two. Okay, you can stay in the country.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Oh, shoot. All right. Which is... Okay, here's an easy one. We elect a president for how many years? Four years. Damn, look at you. Oh, I'm in here.
Starting point is 00:24:24 I'm in here. I'm in here. Which is not a cabinet level position? Secretary of the Interior, Secretary of Energy, Secretary of Communications, or Secretary of Agriculture? Which is not? Mayor of Wakanda. That's not a position. Secretary of Interior. Wrong.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Secretary of Communications. All right. Yeah, I don't know if you guys would be able to pass this test, so. I'm fine with this. I'm fine with this, by the way. Now, lawyer Laura Wasser, and she's a very famous divorce attorney. She is actually going to be doing a website, so you can do a do-it-yourself divorce. It's called It's Over Easy.
Starting point is 00:25:01 And the site is available only for divorcing people in California and in New York. So for $1,500 plus processing and filing fees, you get a divorce petition to serve your spouse. And you can get a 30-minute consultation with a family law consultant for $2,500 plus processing and filing fees. Both parties are covered. The paperwork is filed for both parties. And there's a 90-minute phone consultation. So that's it. You can now do an online divorce.
Starting point is 00:25:27 You know, a lot of people stay married because they say divorce is too expensive. Listen, man, everything don't have to go digital, okay? Like, a divorce shouldn't be one of those things. No, no, that could be digital because you think about it. The paying lawyers is so damn expensive for a lot of people. People say it's too expensive. You ain't got to pay a lawyer. You got to mediate or do that.
Starting point is 00:25:44 I feel like if you can have online divorce, then you can have online marriage. What's up? You can. Let's cut some costs here. Can you do that? Let's cut some costs here, ladies. Actually, if you just go to City Hall, it's not too bad. Forget City Hall.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Let's do it online, okay? I do. You follow me. I follow you. All right? Let's do it like that. Since y'all want online divorce, let's have online marriage. Somebody could break into your account and you'd be married, don't even know it.
Starting point is 00:26:04 Well, ain't nothing wrong with that. Have 10 wives you don't know about. All digital. They don't count. That ain't really real. Never met none of them. All right? That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Starting point is 00:26:14 Who is this ho saying she my wife? I don't know her. My goodness. And that's front page news. Now, when we come back, we have Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum. I really like this guy, man. He's running for governor of Florida. What is he now?
Starting point is 00:26:28 He's running for governor of Florida. He's the mayor of Tallahassee. Yeah, mayor of Tallahassee. He's running for governor of Florida. I really like this guy. You ever have a conversation with somebody and you realize, like, they really get it and they got some things going on in their brain that can really change the world? He's one of those individuals.
Starting point is 00:26:41 All right. Well, we'll get that back on when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Tallahassee Mayor. What's up? Andrew Gilliam. Did I say that right? Gilliam. You can tell he's from Florida right now. That's it. Miami. You born and raised in Florida? I am. I am. Richmond Heights. I always say the craziest people come from the Bronx and all of Florida. Come on, man. Not all of Florida. You have, man. Not all of Florida.
Starting point is 00:27:10 You have to remember people from Florida are a little off. No. Just a little bit. No, no, no, no. No more than any place else. We just got 20 million people. So it feels that way. But it's a great state. I call it home. Started from the bottom, as I say, and now in Tallahassee, Florida,
Starting point is 00:27:23 literally the top of the state. Raised in an area called Richmond Heights. South Dade. Born in Jackson Memorial Hospital. One of seven kids. One of my brothers is here with us this morning. And all boys, one girl, my baby sister, who's actually in law school here at Cardoza. And obviously I'm now in this race for governor.
Starting point is 00:27:44 How'd you get into politics? I was... Well, that's right. I mean, I came to Florida A&M University, shout out to FAMU, to attend college. And when I was a student at FAM, that was when Republicans took control in my state. And
Starting point is 00:27:59 they did everything from eliminating affirmative action to trying to tier FAMU in the third bottom tier with the fewest resources. I decided to run for city commission after I graduated. I was 23 years old, ran for a seat that was roughly the electorate was almost 70 percent white. Nobody thought we had a chance of winning, including my mama, who gave me twenty dollars of a campaign contribution and told me not to spend it all in one place. Everything helps. Everything helps. Everything helps. And helps, man.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Everything helps. And that is quite magical. We didn't raise a lot of money, but we ended up winning that race, making me the youngest person in Tallahassee's history to serve on the city council. You looked like 20-something, right? I was 23. Wow. How do you think you won that race?
Starting point is 00:28:38 You know what? We organized. I got to tell you, I mean, if I didn't learn anything else and fighting all those battles, even as students, with lawmakers and the legislature and the governor, that time, it was Jeb Bush. It was how you organize people. And so we did dorm storms. We showed up at people's dorm rooms, knocked on the door. Our strategy, that's it. Maybe normally didn't vote, didn't vote.
Starting point is 00:28:59 And no. And everybody kept saying, what are you doing? Paying attention. Why are you on campus? The students don't vote. Nine students voted on the campus of FSU in the previous election. We're like, we're going to turn the heat up on that. And we did something called knock and drag. We knocked on doors and dragged people out, literally dragged them out to go vote. And we created our own electorate, if you will. We need that now, by the way. We absolutely need it now, not just in local races, but even at the national race, at the national level.
Starting point is 00:29:28 Imagine what the outcome of the election could have been had, you know, communities, young people included and others, shown up in real numbers to frankly let our voices be heard. We need our own tea party. We need like a cognac party. And all the black and brown people come together and we we just voting these big blocks all throughout the country. I lost a woman to FAMU too, man. I just want to say that. I'm being honest.
Starting point is 00:29:50 This woman that I dated before my wife, she went to FAMU. Nice. And she was a virgin when she went to FAMU. And I drove down there one time for the weekend, and all of a sudden she wanted to have sex. And I was like, yep, this goddamn FAMU. And I looked around at that campus, and I said, yeah, I ain't going to keep this one. I can't compete.
Starting point is 00:30:06 I can't compete with all these wild Florida boys. Come on, man. Get out of here. Get out of here. Listen, it's hard to compete with a rattler, and that's okay. I will tell you, FAMU, I'm the first in my family to graduate from high school of the kids and the first to go to college, and I ended up at FAMU, frankly watching A Different World. I mean I grew up on watching that show. I saw what they did. Same deal right. I mean it's there's something to be said
Starting point is 00:30:30 for the power of seeing yourself reflected right. Right. We always were just talking about that how important it is to see somebody like you on TV. Absolutely. And to have those role models and one thing we've been talking a lot about too is actually running for office because a lot of people don't feel like they're even qualified to run for office so that they could even potentially win but it's so important for us to be in offices even if we have to start at the bottom locally whatever it is that you have to do so that you can represent for your people that's right i mean and consider locally uh you know it sounds like you know starting low but i'm mayor of a city that has a nearly 800 million million budget, right?
Starting point is 00:31:05 At 23, but I mean, I thought I could win for sure. Nobody else did. But the truth is, is after I got there for a while, I was doubting myself as to whether or not I had the skill set, the background. And the truth is, we have to be honest about the fact that sometimes when we find ourselves in these positions of power, you're looking for validation in what it is that you do and what you say and making sure that people are supportive of you. It stops you from doing the work.
Starting point is 00:31:30 Yeah, it does stop you from doing the work. And it stops you from being your most authentic self. I have an experience. I have a lived experience that I need to be able to reflect. And it was a light switch coming on. And it's not stop sense. If you have to say these are the issues, because I see you focus a lot on the kids. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:31:47 And making sure that they have something to do outside of school and fixing the education system as well. Well, it's huge. So, I mean, I grew up in Miami and matriculated all the way through the public system. K through 12, obviously a state university system for college. In my state, roughly 47% of the people there say that they cannot make ends meet at the end of the month. So they're working. In fact, they're working harder than ever and still can't pay their bills. Why?
Starting point is 00:32:14 Because we largely have a low-wage economy in my state. We have a governor who decided not to extend Medicaid, right? One and a half million are the most medically needy people who don't have access to health care because we've got a governor who philosophically disagreed with Barack Obama and therefore decided not to do it. We have a governor who right now in a legislature who refers to a career where they could make a good wage for themselves and for their families. We have all but pushed out of the public education system apprenticeships, pipelining. Trades. Apprenticeships. I mean, trades, woodwork, electrical, mechanical, all those skills that, frankly, in my opinion, are critical.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Yeah, what happened to shop class? What happened to home economics? They replaced it with high-stakes tests, which don't tell us what our kids know, but how well they take a test. Right? And so, in my opinion, it's imperative that we have a governor who understands that experience, that lived experience of people in our state, and are prepared to do something to shift up the game a little bit in such a way that one if you're not on a college-bound track you should be able to get a skill that leads to a job that then leads to a career that pays a good wage uh if you're going to college you should be able
Starting point is 00:33:34 to graduate without coming from under a mountain of debt uh if you choose florida as your home and you get caught up in the criminal justice system, you should be able to pay your debt to society, make your way back into society, and make a good life for yourself. But unfortunately, we have an unforgiving criminal justice system, right? I talk unapologetically about the fact that I've got brothers who got felony records for drug sales. And when they got out, I had a very difficult time trying to get a job.
Starting point is 00:34:03 And so both my brothers, who found themselves in that situation, now own their own businesses. And people say, man, you got such an entrepreneur. If you ask them, they're not entrepreneurs. They had to eat. They had to feed their kids. They had to feed their wives. How do we create a criminal justice reform system in a society that doesn't punish people perpetually for a mistake? I think we have to turn those facilities into actual correctional facilities. We call them correctional
Starting point is 00:34:26 facilities, but what are we doing to correct people? I think that we should have trades in school. You should be able to really get a real education that means something, like a degree that means something when you come home. That's right. I totally agree. I mean, and there are some simple ways to do it. It's not like we're starting from zero. What it requires is
Starting point is 00:34:41 somebody who's intention toward making that happen. But it isn't rocket science on how it is that you re-infuse trades and apprenticeships back in the educational system. All right, we have more with Andrew Gillum. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:35:02 We have from Tallahassee running for Florida Governor Andrew Gillum. Charlemagne? Yeah, I saw you tweeting about how we should legalize marijuana and use the money to fix up Florida's public schools. Absolutely. Well, I mean, we've seen the damage that over-criminalization has done, particularly as it relates to marijuana use, marijuana sales, obviously. Obviously, the law of the land is what it is,
Starting point is 00:35:24 and we have to enforce the law as it exists. However, I think cities all across the country should be looking at ways to decriminalize certain forms. And so our law enforcement agencies use discretion. If they pull you over and you got a roach, you know, typically the standard thing is to, you know, criminalize you, arrest you, book you and create a criminal record profile on you. And we're saying, is that really the way in which we fight crime in our city? Give me a break or let's just keep it moving. Or we could say that we're going to have some compassion around this whole issue and recognize that these are the folks who are creating real criminal element in our city, that there are other real criminal elements in our city, that if you weren't focused 30 minutes writing a citation on a roach,
Starting point is 00:36:12 maybe you could actually be dealing with the folks who are breaking and entering and committing violent crime, right? And so this is simply a question of where our priorities are. And unfortunately, we have an attorney general, Jeff Sessions. His intention is to continue to criminalize, in fact, even go after cities that followed Obama precedent rules when it came to decriminalization and saying, no, we're throwing those rules out. We want to prosecute these cases to the fullest extent of the law. Where are the celebrities? Where are your T-Pains and your Plies and your Ross and these
Starting point is 00:36:45 artists from Florida? Are they backing you? Are they behind you? I sure hope so. We're obviously we've been focused a lot on our primary voters, many of them older voters in our state. But it's my intention to try to recruit as much support as I possibly can
Starting point is 00:37:01 from those folks. Kodak Black was a big contributor to your campaign, right? Say it again? Kodak Black contributed financially to your campaign. Indeed? No. What did you? Wait, Kodak Black.
Starting point is 00:37:11 I'm sorry. You know who I thought about? You just fell into that. Yeah, you trapped me, man. We got 14,000 contributions. I think you tried to trap me on that one. You helped lower violent crime in the city by more than 10%. And this is just common sense to me, and I don't know why people don't do more of it.
Starting point is 00:37:30 It was simply through increased investments in law enforcement. Law enforcement, but not just law enforcement in the sake of hiring more officers to arrest more people, but hiring more officers to do community policing. When I was growing up in South Dade, we knew officers by name. They reflected the community. They would come, my grandmother would sit on her rocking chair and carry on a 30-minute conversation with the law enforcement officer. We'd run past
Starting point is 00:37:52 them like it wasn't nothing because you were scared. That's exactly right. You were not afraid. You were not afraid and your only interaction wasn't always a bad interaction, right? We had a different outlook on that and unfortunately we've gotten so far away from it. So what we said is we're going to incentivize community policing. We're going to hire more officers so that we can put more folks in areas where they can build relationships with
Starting point is 00:38:12 communities and the folks who live in those communities. The other thing that we did, and I'm extremely proud of this, I started this program called Community Connections, which is a restorative justice process. It takes first-time nonviolent young people under the age 18 and under for nonviolent offenses. And instead of them going before a judge and being told that they've committed some crime against the inanimate state of Florida, they don't know the state of Florida. They ain't touched her.
Starting point is 00:38:37 They don't know how she feels. They don't know anything about that, but they're told that they've committed some crime against her. And the recidivism rate for folks who are adjudicated through the normal justice process is about 40 percent of them go on to recidivate. We created a program called Community Connections where instead of going before a judge in a court of law, you go before a community panel. Ms. Jackson, Ms. Jefferson, the principal, maybe a teacher, maybe a law enforcement officer, maybe the victim, maybe the victim's family. And you get told how the actions you did affected us. And what we've learned is that over 90% of our kids over the same observation period as the state uses never go on to recidivate over that period. Right?
Starting point is 00:39:13 Not because they're brilliant or because we're any more brilliant. It's because we're trying to lean into smart justice. Right? It's like a human issue. It's a humane. Absolutely. It pierces. Right?
Starting point is 00:39:23 It makes sense. It's like, man, I hate to disappoint Miss Jackson. I got to see her every day. Right. Right. Or whomever. And there's a different level of human connection that takes place. This concept is known as restorative justice. To your point, Charlemagne, how do we restore through the criminal justice process? Not just detain, not remove from society and create, you know, strong, resentful men and women. But how do we restore them with something that when they get out, they got some usefulness for themselves. They can apply themselves. The other thing I did in my city with the support of my colleagues is we banned the box. We don't ask about criminal background history when you apply for a job with the city of Tallahassee
Starting point is 00:39:59 unless answering yes to having had a criminal background history is a disqualifier for a job. If it isn't a disqualifier, we're going to measure you on your merit. Are you qualified? Will you make a good employee? Will you help this team be a good team member? And what we've learned is that some of those folks, the hardest working individuals we have in our government because they know what it means to be without. That struck me because at first I was thinking, nah, some people need to go to jail. But then I'm like, nah, some people just really need to know somebody cares.
Starting point is 00:40:27 Absolutely. I think that's, man, why do we divorce ourselves from our very human instincts when it comes to crime and justice? I mean, it's no different than how you or I or any of us in this room might want to feel when it is that we've made a mistake and we don't want to be the baby thrown out with the bathwater. Yes.
Starting point is 00:40:48 That you know you've done wrong sometimes. And the truth is is that every one of us have, right? We've all fallen short in our own respective ways. And for some people, it's even worse than falling short. It is that you were born into a situation
Starting point is 00:41:01 and into a set of circumstances that every single day, this is the life that you saw. This was the example that was set of circumstances that every single day, this is a life that you saw. This was the example that was set for you. Drug addicted mom, maybe absent dad, trading between which home, grandmama house, auntie house, cousin house down the street. Menace to society, boys in the hood. All of it, man. All of it. And so we got to, at some level, start to re-educate our kids. That's why I've leaned into programs like the 1,000 Mentor Initiative that I've launched
Starting point is 00:41:30 in my city to try to get loving, caring adults in front of our youth to say, you know what, young man? I expect great things of you. You don't even know what those great things are, but brother, I'm looking at you and your future is so bright, right? I want you to spend a day with me in the mayor's office. I want you to see what that's like. Or if you're a teacher, you know, bring this young man out to the soccer game over the weekend. Show them a different experience. Even in my own city,
Starting point is 00:41:52 I was shocked to learn how many of our kids never stepped foot on the campus of FAMU or Florida State University, right? And all that takes is somebody who cares enough to bring them along, right? And you never know the kind of transformational power you can have on an individual just by the power of your example. And it works. I've had that happen to me. Like, I have an extensive criminal record,
Starting point is 00:42:12 but it was constantly adults in my life who were like, no, you got a bright future. You're wasting your potential. Showing me different things. And that does have an impact on me. Totally has an impact. And we can't give up on our youth in that way, right?
Starting point is 00:42:25 We can't give... They're too young. And we can't give up on our youth in that way, right? We can't get there too young. And we're already treating them like they're adults and like that, you know, they're too young. They're kids. I watch my own kids. And that's why I feel so passionately about it that I'm setting an example for them. I watch my kids. They're not reading as you got a set of three-year-old twins and an eight-month-old. And because we have a habit of reading to our kids at night,
Starting point is 00:42:48 my kids, when we're not in the room and we're just sort of watching or we're listening on the camera, my wife and I, I see them on the camera holding the book, and they're making up their own stories, right, as they turn the page. And Caroline is mimicking what she heard her mama say to me. And Jackson's mimicking back what he heard me say back to their mother, right? The power of example is amazing. And it doesn't have to be the parent that you're born to that sets that example necessarily.
Starting point is 00:43:11 It's my hope that that be your first example, your first teacher. But if it isn't, there's a role that we all as a society and community can play. And that's why community justice is so important to me. Can I export my vote, man? Man, I'd love you to. Come on, come be a six in a day or maybe I'm biased
Starting point is 00:43:25 because you black, but I don't know. You're talking some good stuff. Yeah, we agree with a lot of things. And some things I've never even heard anybody say before. We appreciate that. For your listeners. And first of all, I want to thank you all for this platform. It is a powerful platform.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Your voices are needed more now, not only on just hip hop culture and culture in general, but your salient voices on what's happening. The condition of this country right now could not be more important than the moment that we find ourselves in right now. So I encourage you to keep doing it. And for candidates like me who, again, don't have all the resources, we have to depend on people's willingness from New York and Florida and Georgia and everywhere else to pour into our campaign. So if you want to learn more, I hope you'll visit us at Andrew Gillum dot com. Andrew Gillum dot com. Andrew G.I.L.L.U.M. dot com. And check us out.
Starting point is 00:44:16 There's a lot more. And you can absolutely make donations. I'm going to make a donation. On that website. That means a lot. I'm sorry that you went to FAMU. Come on, man. I'm sorry about your Jaguar.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Come on, brother. Listen,'m sorry about your Jaguars. Come on, brother. Listen. Look, everybody can't be perfect. And so when you can't be, you go to Hampton. Oh! Wow. And anything. I didn't see that one coming.
Starting point is 00:44:34 Aside from that, anything that we can do to help, though. That means a lot. We could help. You know, we come to Florida a lot. We definitely do. So we're always all over Miami, Jacksonville. And, you know, just all over. Well, let's figure out a time to be together when y'all are in the state.
Starting point is 00:44:48 Absolutely. I'm about to make a donation right now. There it is. It's Andrew Gillum. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. ...room about cosmetic enhancements. Me personally, I don't care. If you want to get plastic surgery, if you want to do your hair a certain way, you want to wear makeup, I don't care. If you want to get plastic surgery, if you want to do your hair a certain way, you want to wear makeup, I don't care. No, you compared fake boobs to fake hair. It's all cosmetic enhancements. Charlamagne said that getting braids
Starting point is 00:45:12 in your hair is the same thing as getting plastic surgery. I didn't say it's the same thing. I said it's all a cosmetic enhancement. That's all I was saying. I said it's a cosmetic enhancement. What's wrong with cosmetic enhancements? I said anybody can do anything but I wouldn't compare getting braids to getting plastic surgery. I'm not comparing them. I'm just saying that they're cosmetic enhancements. If you want to wear your hair a certain way, if you want to get plastic surgery, do you, boo.
Starting point is 00:45:30 That's you. All right. Yeah, that wasn't the question, but you were just saying it's the same thing as getting. I never said it was the same thing. And I said there's a lot more risk that can come with getting plastic surgery than getting braids. I never said it was the same thing. All right, guys. All right, girls.
Starting point is 00:45:42 All right. Now, let's get to the rumors. We talking Omarosa? Omarosa. It's about time. What's going on? It. All right, guys. All right, girls. All right. Now, let's get to the rumors. We talking Omarosa? Omarosa. It's about time. What's going on? It's been tapping, though. Rumor Report.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. So, Omarosa has joined Celebrity Big Brother. She's getting $500,000. Well, she could get $500,000 if she wins. And she getting Monique stand-up special money?
Starting point is 00:46:08 Oh, stop it. Now, we don't know. She's going to have to win. So I don't know. She has some tough competition. Metta World Peace will be on there. Who's the Metta World Peace? I just saw him.
Starting point is 00:46:17 Pulliam. Mark McGrath will be on there. Chuck Liddell will be on there. So it's going to be some stiff competition. But, you know, we'll see what happens. She made it through the White House for quite some time. She will not be the last person that leaves this White House and goes back to reality TV. Trust me.
Starting point is 00:46:33 All right. Now, Pink had a response to Grammy president Neil Portno's comment about female artists needing to step up. So the problem was this. And Janelle Monae posted a total of 90.7% of nominees between 2013 and 2018 were male, meaning just 9.3% were women, times up Grammys. So according to Part Now, he told Variety that I think it has to begin with women
Starting point is 00:47:01 who have the creativity in their hearts and souls, who want to be musicians, who want to be engineers, who want to be producers, who want to be part of the industry on the executive level to step up. So his reasoning was that women need to step up. Now, Pink responded, women in music don't need to step up. Women have been stepping since the beginning of time. Stepping up and also stepping aside. Women own music this year.
Starting point is 00:47:20 They've been killing it. And every year before this, when we celebrate and honor the talent and accomplishments of women and how much women step up every year against all odds, we show the next generation of women and girls and boys and men what it means to be equal and what it looks like to be fair. I'm trying to think what woman wasn't nominated, though. Like, every woman that was, like, really killing it last year was nominated. Well, the problem is that in the past five years, about 90% of the nominees were men
Starting point is 00:47:42 and less than 10% were women. So, sounds like a lot of women aren't getting acknowledged. What's the ratio of men and women in the industry though? There's a lot more than 10% women. I mean, I don't know. I'm asking. I don't know. Alright, now let's discuss Tom Hanks. He's going to be starring as Mr.
Starting point is 00:47:59 Rogers in the upcoming biopic You Are My Friend. The film is going to focus on the friendship between the host of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood and journalist Tom Junod. And that production will start in September. And they're saying that movie is going to come out in 2019. I watch anything with Tom Hanks in it. I think Tom Hanks is the greatest actor of all time.
Starting point is 00:48:17 That's just my personal opinion. Of all time? Tom Hanks of all time? Absolutely. I never knew you thought that. Look at the range of things that Tom Hanks can do. Tom Hanks can go from big to Philadelphia. To Forrest Gump.
Starting point is 00:48:27 To Forrest Gump. He's done a lot. To Castaway. The guy was on an island with a volleyball and made you cry. Wilson. You fell in love with Wilson. I did. You were so sad when Wilson got away from that rap.
Starting point is 00:48:36 I did cry. Come on, man. Tom Hanks is the goat. But I cried in that other movie, too. What was that movie I cried on? Creed? Yeah, I cried for Creed, too. Well, that has nothing to do with Tom Hanks. I don't know. It wasn't in Creed? I don't know. I just said I cried for other movie, too. What was that movie I cried on? Creed? Yeah, I cried for Creed, too. Well, that has nothing to do with Tommy.
Starting point is 00:48:45 I don't know. You cried for Creed? I don't know. I just said I cried for that movie, too. I'm sure you cry during a lot of movies. I probably do. All right, Ray Sherman. According to Mike Well Made It,
Starting point is 00:48:53 their next album is going to be a triple disc. So it's going to be a three-disc album with a solo record from each member of the duo and a joint album. So it's going to be two solo albums and a joint album. So three albums all together. He said we got the Sway Lee's Waycation. We got Slim Jimmy's Jim Traduction
Starting point is 00:49:12 and then the Ray Shermard side. Now I'm going to be honest with you. When I first heard this I was like okay this is too much music. And I still think it's too much music. But I like the way they're doing it with two solo albums and then the joint album. But let me tell y'all something. Nobody got that kind of time. Nobody got time. That's a lot of music.
Starting point is 00:49:26 People are putting out too much music now. Maybe the kids do. I don't know. I don't have that kind of time to listen to three Rache Murmur albums. Now, how many songs
Starting point is 00:49:31 have to be on an album for it to be considered a full LP? I thought it was 10. Okay, so imagine they just did... I thought it was 9. Or 8 to 10.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Because Off the Wall had 9. Illmatic had 9, right? I thought it had 10. What? All right, so let's just say for argument's sake, it's ten. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:47 So then that's 30 songs. I mean, how many songs was on the Migos album just now? 24. I don't know, but I ain't get through the whole Migos album yet either. That's my whole point. Chris Brown had a long album.
Starting point is 00:49:56 Haven't gotten through the whole Chris Brown album yet either. I don't have that kind of time. Who got that kind of time? A lot of people in the car taking a road trip at home. I don't. I have a life.
Starting point is 00:50:05 If you're a big fan. And people pick their favorite songs and listen to them over and over. And I listen to Ray Shmurman a lot in the gym. I'm not in the gym that long. But now you have a long time to work out. That's three, four days a week. You could run a marathon. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Rumor Report.
Starting point is 00:50:19 All right, thank you, Missy. Shalomite! I need a young man named Andy Reimer to come to the front of the congregation. As a radio personality, this hurts my heart, because he messed up the money for no goddamn reason. Okay, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Starting point is 00:50:39 Donkey of the Day, ask Chalamet. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Donkey of the day, ex-jungleman. I'm a Democrat, so being donkey of the day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Keyhole. Donkey of the day. The practice club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but donkey of the day is a new one.
Starting point is 00:50:57 Yes, donkey of the day for Tuesday, January 30th goes to a radio host in Boston named Andy Reimer. Now, Andy Reimer is a host on WEEI in Boston, and Tom Brady is a weekly guest on the Kirk and Callahan morning show on that station. Now, I don't know if y'all realize how important this is, but WEEI is a sports radio station, and they do Patriots Monday and Patriots Friday. Of course, both these programs provide the station with a close association to the team, the Patriots. Now, they need this because their rival station in Boston, 98.5 The Sports Hub, owns the
Starting point is 00:51:27 game day broadcast rights of Patriots games. Do people still listen to football via the radio? I guess when you're driving, maybe. I'm just here in the car, yeah, probably. Personally, I would rather have access to the players. You know what I mean? I'd rather hear commentary from the players. And if you're in Boston and you have one of God's only begotten children,
Starting point is 00:51:43 one of the top three white men of all time in America, right up there with the founding fathers and Elvis Presley, Tom Brady, when you have that guy calling the radio station every Monday, I'm sure it's a lot of sponsorship surrounding Patriots Monday. A lot of advertisements. They probably charge top dollar on this day around this time slot. Tom Brady takes a break from eating avocado ice cream every week just to call his station. Well, that whole relationship may be in jeopardy because of Andy Reimer. See, Andy Reimer got to see the first episode of the TB12 documentary
Starting point is 00:52:14 Tom vs. Time. Well, Andy Reimer had some... His name is Alex Reimer. It's Alex Reimer? Yeah. Is it Alex Reimer? Oh, okay. Well, Alex Reimer had some critique of this documentary, and that critique didn't go over too well with Tom Brady, but the critique wasn't really about Tom Brady. It was about Tom Brady's child.
Starting point is 00:52:35 Let's hear what Mr. Reimer had to say. Sports Radio WEI. I've talked for over two hours about this Tom versus time thing. I loved episode one. I see no issue with the timing of it, and I'm looking forward to episode two. What'd you think? It was fine. It was okay.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Just fine? Come on. All right, I thought the first scene was so staged, where Brady's, like, in the kitchen, his kids being an annoying little pissant. Wow. It's not Alex, it's Andy. Andy Reimer. Okay, called Tom Brady an annoying little pissant.
Starting point is 00:53:05 Okay, now I even heard the term, I've never heard the term pissant before. Have you? Yes, I have. I haven't heard it. I thought he was calling her a pissant, like urine in the insect. But then I Googled the definition of pissant this morning, and it's considered a vulgar word that means an insignificant or contemplable person or thing. Worthless. Okay, Merriam-Webster, yes, the dictionary.
Starting point is 00:53:26 All right, they actually posted a statement saying, the word generally considered to be vulgar is formed exactly as one might imagine by blending the urinary sense of piss and the form of sign sense of ant. What the hell is form of sign? Form of sign? Well, it's not generally used to insult children. That's the moral of the story. Okay, now I have zero problem with giving my critique of anyone.
Starting point is 00:53:47 Nobody is above critique, but you didn't have to give any shots to Tom Brady's daughter. She's five, and you're going to call her something that I had to Google? Pissant? Tom Brady takes a break from his mostly organic, local, and plant-based diet with no... Whose radio was that? Tom Brady takes a break from his mostly organic, local, and plant-based diet with no highly processed foods to call your station every Monday,
Starting point is 00:54:13 which essentially brings ratings and revenue to your station, which keeps food on the table for you and your annoying little children, if you have any. Okay, Tom Brady drinks 25 glasses of water a day, so the time he spends calling W-E calling WEEI could be spent hydrating. And Andy Reimer, you're not going to respect his time, fam? In fact, you're going to disrespect his time by disrespecting his daughter? Well, Tom Brady being the class act,
Starting point is 00:54:35 he is still called in the Kirk and Callahan show on WEEI on Monday because it was indeed Patriots Monday, a huge Patriots Monday because it's the last one before the Super Bowl. But Tom Brady didn't call to talk about no damn Super Bowl. The man who has never tried coffee, the man who doesn't do caffeine, no fungus, no dairy, even certain vegetables and fruits are off limits, didn't want to talk about no Super Bowl. He wanted smoke with Andy Reiner. Let's hear what Tom Brady had to say.
Starting point is 00:55:00 I've tried to come on this show for many years and showed you guys a lot of respect. I've always tried to come on and show for many years and showed you guys a lot of respect. I've always tried to come on and, you know, do a good job for you guys. So, you know, it's very disappointing when you hear that. Certainly with my daughter or any child, you know, they certainly don't deserve that. So I'll obviously evaluate whether I want to come on this show again. So I really don't have much to say this morning. Maybe I'll speak with you guys some other time. Tom Brady, the man who doesn't eat nightshade vegetables such as peppers, tomatoes, and eggplants basically just said, fire
Starting point is 00:55:29 him and I'll be back. Now Tom Brady is saying he doesn't want Andy to be fired. Why do y'all keep saying his name's Alex? Because his name is Alex. So why in the news report it says Andy? There's only one. I think they got it wrong, but ESPN says Alex. Everybody else says Alex. Whatever the guy's name is. Alex Reimer.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Let's call him Mr. Reimer. Okay. They want Mr. Reimer fired, all right? But we can read between the lines. You know, Tom Brady said he doesn't want him fired, actually, but we can read between the lines. Tom Brady wants an apology, and he wants Alex fired, and he will consider coming back to WEEI.
Starting point is 00:55:59 Okay, Tom Brady doesn't even like tomatoes. So what makes you think he doesn't want this guy fired? Tom Brady eats mostly alkaline foods and follows an anti-inflammatory diet. So you think he is going to stand for inflammatory comments from a radio host? Now, Alex has been suspended indefinitely from the station. And it's my guess he will be looking for a new radio gig really soon. And he has no one to blame but himself. Please give Andy or Alex Reimer the biggest hee-haw, please.
Starting point is 00:56:28 You got to be smarter than that. Now, did you see the video where he was talking about that his daughter was being annoying? You can tell that this guy has no kids. It looked like his daughter was just being a daughter. His daughter was being a kid. She's four or five years old, and she loves her daddy, so she's calling daddy. Can we go to the sleepover? Daddy, I'm about to play soccer.
Starting point is 00:56:43 I want you to come. Daddy, I love you. Like, what is wrong with that? My kids do it times 30. I thought that was light, actually. You can't call him a pissant. That's crazy. I wouldn't want to be Alex Weimer right now. That's all I know. I think he owes Tom
Starting point is 00:56:58 Brady five minutes. That's what I think. Anyway, thank you for that dunk of the day, sir. Alright, now when we come back, shoot your shot. If there's somebody you want to holla at, you want to talk to, and you for that donkey today, sir. Mm-hmm. All right, now, when we come back, shoot your shot. Now, if there's somebody you want to holla at, you want to talk to, and you want The Breakfast Club to help you out, well, we'll help you out. When we come back, 800-585-1051, shoot your shot is next. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:57:16 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Are you ready? It's time to shoot your shot. It's time to shoot your shot with The Breakfast Club. You give you one chance. Don't mess it up.
Starting point is 00:57:33 Mess it up. Mess it up. Mess it up. We got Greg on the line. Greg, what's up, bro? Hey, guys. How's it going? Hey, Greg, it's shoot your shot, man.
Starting point is 00:57:40 What's going on, man? Tell us who you want to shoot your shot with, bro. Oh, my gosh, there's this attractive older woman that works out at the same gym I work out. Her name's Cheryl. Oh, you like older women, huh? I used to call older women vintage vagina, but I don't
Starting point is 00:57:55 talk to, I don't object, what's the word? I don't reduce women to their body parts anymore. Thank you. Alright, Greg. She's definitely a cool girl. Don't call her an animal! What kind of animal are you? So Greg, Greg. She's definitely a cougar. Don't call her an animal! What kind of animal are you? So Greg, continue. Let's talk about Cheryl. So she's in the gym. She's in the gym
Starting point is 00:58:11 and you know, we make eye contact all the time and I helped her out with a couple of machines. So you work at the gym? I work out. He works out. You don't work there, but you've been helping her even though that's not your job. Yeah, I'm just being friendly.
Starting point is 00:58:26 You've been spotting her and all that, huh? Are you sure that y'all making eye contact? Because she's just like, who is this weirdo that keeps looking at me? No, no, we chat each other up a little bit. Is she married or is she single? I don't, I haven't seen a ring on that finger. I mean, she's at the gym sometimes. Who the hell always rings at the gym?
Starting point is 00:58:41 I know. Tell me some, like, what kind of conversations do you guys have? Oh, man, we talk about school, working out, summer bodies. How old are you, Greg? I just turned 18.
Starting point is 00:58:54 That's how long ago. 18? This woman is 40? You talk about school. Now, I'm going to tell you something. I'm going to tell you something. You can flirt with her
Starting point is 00:59:00 and make her feel good, but I don't think no 40-year-old woman giving no 18-year-old kid no play, man. Yeah, that would be actually creepy. It's good, though. You make her feel good. You know what I'm saying 40-year-old woman giving no 18-year-old kid no play, man. Yeah, that would be actually creepy. It's good, though. You make her feel good.
Starting point is 00:59:07 You know what I'm saying? She's like, damn, I still got it, you know? Well... I don't know. We really have a connection. What are you looking for, though? Do you want a relationship or you just want to, you know, swim in that fountain? You want to lose your virginity.
Starting point is 00:59:17 That fountain of elderly-ness. I would like to go out on a date with her. That's sweet, but she might look at you as a child, as her son. But you have her phone number? Yes, I do. Oh, she gave you the number. You asked for it? Of course.
Starting point is 00:59:31 And she gave it to you? Like, how'd you ask for it, though? Like, on some, like, yo, can I call you sometime? I want to get to know you better. How'd you ask for it? Oh, I said, we plan to have a workout date together. Like, you know, meet at the gym at the same time. Oh, you set it up as work.
Starting point is 00:59:45 Smart, smart, smart. That's good. That's smart. You can't get turned down that way. That's smart. All right, like, you know, meet at the gym at the same time. Oh, you set it up as work. Smart, smart, smart. That's good, that's smart. You can't get turned down that way. That's smart. All right, well, let's call her and let's see how this works out. All right, we're going to stay quiet. Let's call your grandma, man,
Starting point is 00:59:52 and see if we can make this into a hookup happen. And we're going to call her and see how this works out. All right, hold on. Okay. All right, when we come back, we're going to call Cheryl
Starting point is 00:59:59 and see how this works. All right, so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Love and lust. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angelou. Yee, so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:00:10 We're in the middle of Shoot Your Shot. Now, Greg's about to call Cheryl. Let's listen in. Hello. Hi, Cheryl. How are you? This is Greg from the gym. Greg. Oh. Hey, baby. How are you? This is Greg from the gym. Greg. Oh, hey, baby. How are you?
Starting point is 01:00:29 I'm good. How are you? I'm okay. A little surprised with this phone call, but how are you? What's going on? I'm all right. I wanted to know if you were free this weekend. Would you like to go to the movies or to dinner or something like that? What? How old are you? 18. Legal. Oh my
Starting point is 01:00:51 God. I do want to go. I can't lie. I do want to go because you a sexy little person but I thought you was younger than me than 18 so where do you want to go? Chuck E. Cheese.
Starting point is 01:01:06 It's working! Hey, Cheryl, what's up? It's the Breakfast Club. I'm Angela Yee. Hey, Cheryl. That's Charlamagne. That's Envy. Hey, Cheryl, you almost pedophile you.
Starting point is 01:01:16 He's legal. He's legal. No, almost is the operative word. I don't want to hear he's legal, because if this was a man and she was a woman, we'd be calling you creepy and nasty and all kind of stuff.
Starting point is 01:01:32 If you saw this little boy and them triceps and biceps, you would understand. Shut up, but you just called him a little boy. No, he's a young man that glistens. His sweat smells like Tom Ford. Now, you know good or you ain't taking this little boy seriously. Now, you might let him come over and smash a couple times,
Starting point is 01:01:49 but you ain't taking this little boy seriously. And what's wrong with that? Oh, hey, then. Sheryl, what you expect? What's wrong with that? I'm judging. I'm judging. It's too early for the judging.
Starting point is 01:02:00 Stop it. Okay, well, let me ask you a question. He invited me. I didn't go after him. Greg, where you going to take her? The movies. The movies? And what restaurant? I after him. Greg, where are you going to take her? The movies. The movies? And what restaurant?
Starting point is 01:02:06 I'm just curious. What restaurant are you taking her to? They're going to Chuck E. Cheese, and they're going to see Jumanji. That's what they're going to do. That's what y'all are going to do. Chuck E. Cheese and Jumanji. He's a classy. You're not giving him enough credit.
Starting point is 01:02:17 He's a classy young man. He smells like Tom Ford. He's very respectful and smells like Tom Ford, and I like him. And he's my motivation for coming to the gym, besides my jiggly part. You're going to get you a contributor to the delinquency of a minor charge. Y'all going to be out, and you're going to order him a little wine, you know what I'm saying, and get him in the mood, and you're going to jail. No, I'm not going to order him wine because he's 18, not 21.
Starting point is 01:02:38 Stop it. You got kids? Stop it. You got kids? I do. How old are they? That's not the important part. That means that they close to this young boy's age.
Starting point is 01:02:46 When you're sleeping with him, you look down and you hear some moaning and you think of your child, you're going to know what it is. You got a son? I am not going to think of my child because my child don't have the muscles on this man. This man is sexy. And Charlamagne, you need to take notes from him and get your weight off and learn something from this young boy. Knock it off. First of all, you ain't never seen me with my shirt off. And get your weight off. Wow. And learn something from this young boy. Knock it off. First of all, you ain't never seen me. You ain't never seen me with my shirt off, okay?
Starting point is 01:03:07 And get your weight up. All right. All right, well, y'all are going to go out, so this should be interesting. I can't wait to hear the follow-up if you guys end up really, like, dating. Seriously. For the record, I still have the testosterone of an 18-year-old. And you went through all this for me. I feel special.
Starting point is 01:03:19 Well, let us know how it goes, mama. My penis still gets firm like an 18-year-old. And I mean mama. All right? All right, grandma. She's not a grandma. No, I don't like these double standards. If this was a 40-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman,
Starting point is 01:03:32 we'd be calling him a freaking creep. In fact, we've done that with Shoot Your Shot before. She's a creep. If you're illegal. He's definitely a creep. So it's okay if they're illegal. We keep that same energy when it's a 40-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman.
Starting point is 01:03:45 Now, would I do that? No. But is it legal? Yes. All right. Anyway, well, I will shoot your shot as the Breakfast Club
Starting point is 01:03:51 Good Morning Room is on the way. We have a show to do. Say goodbye. Who's that, Yee? That was one of my industry friends talking about all these
Starting point is 01:04:00 sexual harassment charges. Oh, wow. What, are they scared that they're not going to be called soon? I said, are you, is there something I should know about you? He said, no, no, Oh, wow. What, are they scared that they're never going to be called soon? I said, is there something I should know about you? He said, no, no, no, no. I was just asking.
Starting point is 01:04:09 All right, well, let's keep talking about it, and let's get to the rumors. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. All right, well, yet another person has been accused of sexual harassment
Starting point is 01:04:27 and that person is Charlie Walk from The Four. You also know him as the head of Republic Records. And it's interesting because whoever wins on The Four is actually going to get a deal with Republic.
Starting point is 01:04:39 You can still get a deal with Republic, but is Charlie Walk going to be there when you get that deal is the question. Right. So right now,
Starting point is 01:04:44 according to The Four, they said they are actually reviewing the matter and they want to make sure they foster a safe environment on all of their shows. Well, let's see if Fox's The Four makes him step down. Will he have to step down from running Republic Records? I wonder how that works, because if one person comes out and says it and he says, no, it's not me, who do they agree with? Who do they go with? Well, most of the time people don't step down to multiple allegations.
Starting point is 01:05:07 Multiple. These allegations are not from while Charlie Walk was at Republic. It was when he was at Sony Music, and that is when one of his employees says that he sexually harassed her. Her name is Tristan Coopersmith, and she's the founder of Life Lab. She said she was in shock when Charlie Walk called to ask her to work for him. She said he flattered her and told her a lot of things I wanted to hear, and he said he
Starting point is 01:05:29 introduced her to a lot of power players, including Donny Einer, Lior Cohen, and Russell Simmons. She said it seemed like the opportunity of a lifetime. She wrote a long explanation that was very detailed on her website, and she said that he makes her sick to her stomach
Starting point is 01:05:45 almost every day for a year. I shuddered at the idea of being called into your office where you would stealthily close the door and make lewd comments about my body and share your fantasies of having sex with me. I was 27. No previous experience had taught me what to do in such a situation.
Starting point is 01:06:00 So I laughed it off, gently reminded you that you were married with children and tried to change the subject, but you were relentless. You would instant message me throughout the day, making sexual remarks, truly vulgar words and ideas. You invited me to dinners that in hindsight I had no business being at, but you did it so you could put your hand on my thigh under the table every time, inching it closer and closer to my sacred place. She also talks about a situation where he threw her down on the bed while his wife was in the room next door. She said, you being drunk and me being six inches taller was my saving grace.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Well, how can Fox or Republic review this situation if that happened back in the day? Yeah, Sony, yeah. I don't even understand what that means, reviewed it. How are they going to review the situation? What, read the article over and over and over and then decide if they believe it or not? That's a good question.
Starting point is 01:06:42 I mean, I guess they can't make any rash decisions right now. They can't say, we stand by him. They don't know if it believe it or not? That's a good question. I mean, I guess they can't make any rash decisions right now. They can't say, we stand by him. They don't know if it's true or not. And they can't say, so it just happened. The story just came out. So they have to take some time to figure out what is the next step. Are there going to be other people that come forward that have stories? If other people come forward.
Starting point is 01:06:58 Does she have emails? I haven't seen any other companies stand by their people. Does she have evidence? Does she have emails or anything? Now she ends it saying, I don't wish ill for you, Charlie Walk, only the possibility
Starting point is 01:07:08 of personal awakening, accountability, and transformation so that you can use your power for good. I forgive you, Charlie Walk. I hope you can forgive yourself. Well, Fox is the 4
Starting point is 01:07:16 comes on Thursdays, I believe. At what time? I would say 8. Yeah, it comes on at 8. Thursdays at 8. Mm-hmm. All right, so she quit
Starting point is 01:07:24 the music business eight years ago. She's now a psychotherapist and she posted that letter on her website. Yeah, it comes on at eight. Thursday's at eight. All right. So she quit the music business eight years ago. She's now a psychotherapist. And she posted that letter on her website. They might have to start treating the judges the way they treat the contestants. Okay. I don't know if Charlie Walker will be there this week. They might have somebody else and they're competing for that fourth judge spot. Who wants to battle for that judge spot?
Starting point is 01:07:39 Sheesh. Now, Jennifer Williams from Basketball Wives has gotten a restraining order. That's your peoples. Yes, she is. I actually spoke to her about this. We were on vacation when all the drama was happening, so she wanted to call in, but we weren't here. Now, she's saying that her ex-boyfriend, who is from that show Sweetie Pies, has been sexually harassing her, James Tim Norman. He got a restraining order against her.
Starting point is 01:08:02 He says that she slashed his tires. I can't see Jennifer doing that. Now she says that he's been harassing and stalking her. She's in court, and actually Evelyn Lozada is her witness. And she also posted some text messages between the two of them. She said that basically he was very verbally abusive toward her and threatened to beat up a guy who was looking at her and sent her a message saying.
Starting point is 01:08:25 I'm not really the type of bitch N-word you obviously think I am. For you to stand there next to me eyeing that sand N-word. So a lot of different things going on with that. Now Meek Mill has suffered a setback. With the whole situation of him releasing these court transcripts. Now Meek's lawyer said the judge was trying to get him to dump Roc Nation for one of her friends. But the transcript actually does not say that. According to the transcript it was Meek's team that was trying to get Meek to fire Roc Nation and hire Charlie Mack as his manager. It
Starting point is 01:08:55 was Meek's probation officer not the judge who was pushing that so that actually is not going to work in his favor now. Well this is what y'all need to do. I keep telling y'all to do this. If you got a friend from Philly or a family member from Philly, simply ask them this week. If you had one choice out of these two choices, right? If you could, let Meek Mill go free right now, no probation,
Starting point is 01:09:16 all parole, or have the Eagles win the Super Bowl this Sunday, which would you choose? I know people who actually went to the courthouse when Meek first got locked up. They were standing outside the courthouse singing the intro. And when I asked them that question, they looked confused in the face. Nah, Meek. They really thinking about it.
Starting point is 01:09:30 Gotta get the brother out, man. Listen, I've quizzed about six people from Philly, and they'd be like, yo, he got a two to four. He'd be all right. No, man. Gotta get Meek out, man. I'm just telling you what people from Philly say. We gonna do this poll on the radio before the week is over. We probably wait till Friday.
Starting point is 01:09:43 They could get another one. Another one what? Super Bowl appearance. I doubt it. All right. And Michelle Obama is going to be doing her first post-White House TV interview with Ellen DeGeneres. She's going to help celebrate her 60th birthday. So that should be a really fun interview.
