I'm glad they put y'all together. Y'all are like a megaforce. Y'all just took over every... Wake your punk ass up. This is Chris Brown. I've officially joined the Breakfast Club. Say something, mother... I'm with it.

The world's most dangerous morning show. Breakfast Club, bitches. Good morning, Angelina. Good morning, Charlemagne. Peace to the planet. It's Tuesday. Election day. Doomsday. Apocalypse now. Wow. Choose your own adventure. Sound morbid, why don't you?

Good morning, guys. Apocalypse. You want to sink or swim? I'm swimming. How do you want this to go down today, ladies and gentlemen? I'm swimming. What you doing? I'm trying to swim a little bit.

That's all I know. Morning, Yee. Good morning, Angelina. What up, Charlemagne? Peace to the planet. What's happening? I was in the back sleeping, napping a little bit. That's all I know. Morning, Yee. Good morning, Andy. What up, Charlamagne? Peace to the planet. What's happening? I was in the back sleeping, napping a little bit. Yeah, I figured you were here. I didn't know whether we should take off today because the polls open at 6, right?

Right. So that means that, you know, by the time we get off, we in the midst of action. No. Like in the midday kind. Listen, usually when I vote, you go in the middle of the day. It's morning and night is usually the most packed. Yeah, it's not that crowded. People try to go really early before they go to work or they go after they get off work.

Lunchtime is usually not that bad. I was trying to remember last time. Last time was 2012. That's when we reelected President Barack Obama for his second term. I walked right in, voted, and left. Yeah, it wasn't that bad now that I think about it, but I just couldn't remember what time of day I went. But I'm sure it had to be after the morning show. Yeah, it was.

Well, my town is usually a bunch of older people a lot. Old white people? Yeah. Yeah. Morning time, jam packed. Gotcha. I cannot wait to start kicking some of these Trump signs down. I ain't going to lie.

Nah, I'm not going to start vandalizing. You're going to damage people's property? I ain't going to do that. I would love to. There's so many. They just started popping up all over the place. If Hillary Clinton wins, there's absolutely no need to kick Trump's signs down. They will come down themselves.

You're right. Okay. You're right. There's absolutely no need to kick Trump's signs down. You're right, but they're all over the place on the highway, the streets. Man, people repping they set. That's what democracy's about. I'm not mad at people for repping they set.

I ain't seen that one sign in my neighborhood. What, Hillary? Yes. I've seen two. No, I have. I've seen two in my neighborhood. What, Hillary? Yes. I've seen two. No, I have. I've seen two in my neighborhood. Is one of them yours? No.

I got too many Trump signs in my yard. I ain't got the heart to put up no Hillary sign. I love you, Hillary, but I ain't riding like that. All right? Not like that. I ain't riding like that. I don't need to know where the black people are. Nah, I'm cool on that.

I ain't riding like that. Oh, man. All right. Well, let's get the show cracking. Well, first of all, yesterday, Aces was a poppin' shot to everybody

that came out to Aces. You know who was at Aces last night? Young Dro. For people who don't know what Aces is. Oh, they know what Aces is. It's a club here

in New York City. It's a strip club. Young Dro was there last night. Young Dro got on stage and performed. Young Dro always has so much energy. I know. Dro gonna be here last night. Young Joe got on stage and performed. Young Joe always has so much energy. I know. Joe's going to be here this week.

You know Joe don't come to New York without... Joe's going to be here this week. Come to holler at the Breakfast Club. Yeah. It was... Shout out to Young Joe. I had a good time with Young Joe yesterday. He's a character.

Anyway, he's really fun. And I ate at one of your favorite restaurants. They say you frequent there, ye? Ricardo's. Oh, yeah. You don't go to Ricardo's ever? I don't. I've never... I've never.

I've been there one time for a birthday party, but I never ate there. But yesterday, I actually ate there. Shout out to the owner. I met the owner yesterday. His name is Jimmy.

He says you come all the time. Yeah, he always takes care of me. We've been to Ricardo's a lot. He says, Angela, you come to the hotel. You ever been there, Charlamagne? Nope.

You should go there one time. It's a steakhouse. They have amazing food. I can't afford no steak. I always bring people there. It's very affordable. It's in Harlem. It's in Harlem. It's in Harlem.

It's not that expensive. And the food is delicious, and the music is really good, too. Affordable to y'all is $300 a plate. I ain't got that kind of money. Oh, it's definitely not on $300 a plate. It's nowhere near that. Definitely not. To put it like this, I got surf and turf.

It was called Land and Sea, which was, it was steak, shrimp, and lobster tail. All I had was expensive, expensive, expensive. No, no, no, no. Then I had appetizers. That had everything. My wife had a drink. I didn't have, I had a ginger ale. That's why was expensive, expensive, expensive. No, no, no, no. Then I had appetizers that had everything. My wife had a drink. I didn't have, I had a ginger ale. That's why I miss EBT, man.

You can get you some crab legs and some steak and strips. And all that. Greens, I had green beans. I had, what else did I have? My wife had mashed potatoes. We also had truffle fries. All that came up to $100. Yeah, it's really inexpensive.

I don't believe you. That's a lot of money. No, it really, it really is. For two people and all that I ordered, bone and rib. You a bugger. That was amazing. I don't believe you. That's a lot of money. No, it really is. For two people and all that I ordered, bone and rib. You a bugger. That was amazing. I'm not going to go chasing Ricardos. I'm going to stick to the Chick-fil-A's and the Popeyes that I'm used to.

It's probably, yeah. Gotta live a little sometimes, though. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Ooh, we're going to talk about voting, voting. Vote, vote, vote. Yes, the key things that you have to do at the ballot today. And also, we'll tell you what's going on with Hillary and Trump right now.

I was trying to do a voting mix, but I couldn't figure out what songs to play. There is no voting mix. All I could think of was my president's black. You're trying too hard. But that's not going to work. Could you stop, please? Because she's not black.

What about If I Ruled the World by Lauryn Hill and Nas? No, you can stop. Everybody can stop. And for you other prisoners in Attica, send them to Africa. Oh, my God. Why are y'all trying so hard? That might work.

Just tell people to vote. Yeah, yeah, just go out and vote. Front page news when we come back. It's Tory Lanez with love. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now, on Monday Night Football, the Seahawks beat the Bills 31-25. Now, Steph Curry, he wasn't playing with y'all. Now, he was what? He did 53 straight three-pointers, and then he missed the game. And then he... 153 games.

153 games. And then he missed one. Well, he came back and set a record 13 three-pointers in a game. That's what he had last night? Yes. I was asleep. I went to bed early as hell last night. I went to bed like 8 o'clock.

And I took a nap earlier. But, damn, 13 three-pointers? That's decent. Decent. That's pretty decent. That's a record. Now, let's talk about Trump. They're saying he's in the lead right now?

Well, that's only in New Hampshire. They have midnight voting. So, they actually have a rule there in New Hampshire. If you have under 100 voters, then they can open their polls at midnight and close them as soon as all registered voters have cast their ballots. So, I wouldn't put too much stock into that because these are small conservative towns. They tend to vote Republican, and it's a very small sample of people. These towns have less than 100 people, but they're saying right now Trump has taken the lead in New Hampshire

after those polls opened at midnight. You got to go out and vote, man. Yeah, you got to go out and vote. You can't be passive, man. People are thinking they're making some radical stand by not voting. The truth to the matter is when you don't vote, you actually give power away to people you don't want to have power. Like me and my wife are going on a date to the voting booth today. We're going to go together.

We're going to hold hands. She's going to go first, and I'm going to go. We're going to go together. You don't have no choice but for her to go first and then you go. It's not like y'all can go in the booth together. Well, I know that, but we're going together. We're going to make it a big thing. We're going to go, we're going to walk together, we're going to hold hands,

we're going to make it a date, and then we're going to go get some lunch. I was listening to this good TED Talk this morning. It was called Democracy on Trial. It was talking about the power of democracy, and it says how voting is almost like a spiritual thing because it's about faith. It's about the need to believe and feel like you're included in part of something. That's what they were saying, the whole power and premise of voting is. Well, it is important to get out there and vote.

They have this Moody's Analytics. They've picked the next president every year since 1980. And they're saying that Trump is going to win. What? Yeah, I mean, some people really believe that Trump is going to win. I mean, he's got a 50-50 shot. He does. I don't know.

They're saying this model is predicting a Trump victory. And they predicted the president since 1980. I don't know who I'm voting for. I just hope Marty McFly and Doc Brown, you know, get that almanac in time. If they can get that almanac from Biff in time, then Hill Valley won't look so crazy. Yeah, tell us how to wake up early.

Well, why should you wake up early? Which we do. We don't really have a choice. But it's daylight, the end of daylight savings, so now you get an extra hour. And if you're not taking advantage of that, then you should. Now, they said, here are some things that you should do. Now, according to studies, people who are exposed to more daylight

have more energy, they're more productive and they're more active. So it's better to go to bed earlier and wake up earlier than it is to stay up later at night. So they said, set your clock a few minutes ahead. It takes me about 30 minutes to get out of bed in the morning. So I set my clock about 30 minutes earlier than I need to get up. Make your breakfast the night before. That's one thing somebody said that they do. They have less to worry about in the morning. So I set my clock about 30 minutes earlier than I need to get up. Make your breakfast the night before. That's one thing somebody said that they do. They have less to worry about in the morning and it prepares you for saving an extra 20 minutes. You can also set your clothes out

in advance too. Set an alarm to tell you when to go to bed. Some people do that. Ariana Huffington who owns the Huffington Post, that's one thing that she does. Also make sure you get your blood flowing when you wake up. Jump on the treadmill, do a two minute plank, sure you get your blood flowing when you wake up. Jump on the treadmill. Do a two-minute plank.

Some crunches in the morning when you get up. Leave exercise clothes by your bed. That will make sure that you actually not ignore it. Who the hell got time to exercise and they're trying to get to work on time? What is she talking about? You got to get up extra early for all that. You can do a two-minute plank. I don't know.

Two minutes is a lot in the morning. I tried to do that one time. I tried to get up an hour early to go work out. No, that hour's a long time. I did that for like a week straight, and I was like, F that. Chance ain't nothing about praying. Also, take some vitamin C in the morning and write down your tasks for the next day. The next day?

Yeah, before you go to bed. Before you go to work? Oh, before you go to bed. That one's for before you go to bed. Okay. It's called mind deliberation, so it makes you feel freer. I ain't gonna lie. You gave me anxiety when you said that poll

said Trump was gonna win. I really wasn't paying attention to that whole sleep thing you were talking about. Well, it's a model that actually predicts who is going to win. My whole thing is that since 1980. That's a long time. Why are they picking Trump? What did the groundhog say? Has the groundhog seen his shadow? The groundhog doesn't matter with this one, bro.

No, not this one, no. Well, all I'm saying is don't take anything for granted. Make sure you get out and vote. Some people think, oh, who cares? It doesn't matter. They already know who's gonna win.

Hillary's gonna win. A lot of people are saying she's gonna win. Nobody has it in the bag until it's said and done. All right. All right. Well, that's front page news.

You just depressed us all. Now, on today's show... I'm just telling you what you need to do. Dr. Oz will be joining us today. We're going to chop it up with Dr. Oz. But now, tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051.

If you're upset, you need to vent, call us right now. Maybe something pissed you off. Maybe Ye just pissed you off with that news she just gave us. Whatever it may be. Maybe people you know that's not planning to vote pissed you off. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent. Call us right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. Hey, yo. This is DMX. You know what makes me mad? When people ask for the truth but can't handle the truth. Now tell them why you mad on The Breakfast Club, bitches. Hello, who's this? It's Rhonda calling from Birmingham, Alabama. Hey the truth. Now tell them why you mad on The Breakfast Club, bitches. Hello, who's this? It's Rhonda calling from Birmingham, Alabama.

Hey, Rhonda, tell them why you mad. We was just out there. Yeah, I know you guys. First of all, I want to say hey to everybody. Hey. But I am pissed at all these dumbasses who said they're not going to go vote today. I mean, first of all, as black people, I mean, I was listening to you guys show yesterday. Listen, everybody calling me and saying they weren't going to vote. First of all, you should feel oblig I mean, I was listening to you guys show yesterday. Listen, everybody calling in saying they weren't going to vote.

First of all, you should feel obligated to go vote. People died. I mean, you don't have to go back 100, 200 years ago. Your grandparents, your great-grandparents, your aunts and uncles got hoses sprayed on them. First and foremost, they need to learn how to educate themselves. Go walk through a civil rights museum and see how these people lost their lives just for you to have the right to be able to do something that's so much cash to vote. Besides that, they made it hard and impossible to even register to vote.

You had to take an essay, a freaking test, to even be able to even register to vote. And you're going to just throw that right away. I mean, it's like you're just discrediting all the things that your past family members have done for you. It's like I work hard for my kids. It's as if the house and the cars and all the stuff that we're going to leave for them, it's like if they just squandered that away and just threw it away. So that's first and foremost. That pisses me the hell off.

And not to mention, you're going to throw all that crap away just because you're too lazy, because you're sitting around here. I mean, I wish that maybe some of these, maybe if we had some holders spraying on us nowadays, maybe they'd feel a little bit better. And then I own it. All those guys who were calling in, all those guys who were calling in yesterday who are sitting around there, who are living off their girlfriends' food stamps, okay, let the wrong person get in office and they cut off all these government findings and stuff.

First and foremost, learn how to vote on a local level. I myself personally... You keep saying first and foremost, but you're on about third and fourth right now. Yeah, you're definitely about third and fourth. But we get it. We get it. Go vote. Get your ass up and go vote. Get your ass up and go vote. Charlamagne, you're a funny dude.

I love you guys. I love you too, boo. It's just ridiculous how they're sitting around throwing this opportunity away. I'm not going to tell you who to, boo. It's just ridiculous how they're sitting around throwing this opportunity. I'm not going to tell you who to go vote for. I mean, I saw a huge difference because even on a local level, and it's not just the presidential election that's on the ballot. It's a lot of stuff that's on the ballot. Yes, we have to vote locally.

Okay. You're on seventh and foremost now. Yeah, now let it go. Tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

That was Bryson Tiller with Exchange. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Yes. Now, today, Dr. Oz will be on the show, so we're going to kick it with Dr. Oz next hour. But please don't take it for granted. Get your ass up. If you've got to leave a little earlier, go out and vote. It's needed. It's very important today. Yeah, man. I mean, I don't understand how everybody's sitting around,

sitting on their hands, acting like they're making some radical stand by not going to vote. All you're doing is handing over the power to people that definitely, absolutely, positively want to oppress you. And my whole thing is this, man. Can't you just have a little bit of faith? I understand that democracy has let us down numerous amounts of times, but what other options you got? You're not empowering

yourself, and you don't believe in democracy, and you don't believe in the government. So what the hell are you going to do? Just sit around and complain all damn day? And I see people leaving comments on people's Instagram pages just talking crazy. Oh, you're a sellout. You're doing this. You're voting for this person. F you. Die. I'm like, you guys,

relax. You're going to vote for who you want to vote for. People have differences in opinion. Do your thing, but don't just do nothing and don't bash other people. I promise you I would respect you if you had some other better option, if you had a better choice. I promise you I would respect you if you had some other better option, if you had a better choice. If you was really out there empowering yourself

instead of just sitting around complaining all day, I would absolutely respect your right to not vote. But the fact you're telling me not to vote and you're not empowering yourself and you're just sitting around complaining, I don't respect that. All right. Well, when we come back, we got some rumors, G? Yes, we do.

We are going to talk about DeRay McKesson from Black Lives Matter, what just happened with him. There's a lawsuit against him now, and we'll tell you why. Also, Chance the Rapper will tell you what he's doing to make sure that young voters get out there and go to the polls. All right. We'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On your breakfast club.

So listen up. Well, Chance the Rapper did a hashtag parade to the polls, and that was him leading thousands of people to go ahead and vote. Now, according to Chicago, Cook County officials said that voting numbers smashed records that were set back in 2008 this year. So far, those early voting numbers are in. And what they are saying is they reached over 430,000 ballots as of 8 p.m. last night. That previous record was 273,000.

Drop one of the Clues Bonds for Chance to Wrap Him. Out here doing his due diligence. That's great. As he should, as we all should. And everybody was tweeting about it. The hashtag was parade to the polls. We want to make sure you all go out and vote. In the meantime, Donald Trump is saying that he actually got a phone call

from Tom Brady who said that he already voted for him. FYI, he said, is there a better reference than Tom Brady and Bill Belichick? Because he said Bill Belichick actually wrote him a letter. All I need is a reason not to like Patriots fans and the Patriots team. I try to give them respect as an organization because they are great, and I would love for my Dallas Cowboys to be that great,

but give me a reason not to like them. I already don't like the Patriots. I would love to call Tom Brady a bigot just because. All right? You racist supporter. Now, DeRay McKesson, and we've had him up here before from Black Lives Matter. Why you never had a Mexican wide receiver on your team, Brady?

A Mexican anything? Well. Got rid of Aaron Hernandez. So you set him up. Oh, gosh. He's not Mexican, by the way. He's Puerto Rican. Okay, I don't know.

We know. All right. Anyway, a police officer has filed a lawsuit against DeRay McKesson, and that's because of a Black Lives Matter rally that happened on July 9th. Now, they're saying that DeRay organized this rally, and this was in Baton Rouge, and he says that he and fellow officers were first hit by bottles, and then when all of that ran out, somebody picked up a piece of concrete or a rock and hit him with it. He was struck in the face.

He lost teeth, injured his jaw and his brain, and he says that DeRay McKesson is the reason that this violence was incited. Oh, stop it. So he's now suing for medical bills and damages. Why would DeRay be the reason? DeRay is the most peaceful person. DeRay is so calm and serene. Like, stop it.

Well, now this officer is suing him, John Doe. All right, Rolling Stone is on the hook for up to $3 million in damages. Now, I don't know if you guys were following this story about a campus rape at the University of Virginia. Did you see when Rolling Stone did this whole thing about a campus rape? Oh yeah, I do remember that. Alright, well they said that the story, they actually had to retract

that story and it's been discredited and all of that. So the jury said that everybody involved in the story's production was liable for a defamation and that is for a university administrator who was basically they were saying that the administrator was unsympathetic

was made out to be a villain in the article. They said nobody wants, they said the administrator said nobody wants to send their daughter to the rape school which is why the school didn't do a better job at reporting sexual assault data. So this is all defamation and they were found guilty of that. So now they have to ante up $3 million

in damages. Rolling Stone does? Yeah, Rolling Stone does. That seemed kind of light, by the way, for those accusations they made. Well, there's another lawsuit for $25 million. There you go. And that is the fraternity that is actually suing because of this retracted story. And that lawsuit has not yet gone to trial.

Why are they aiming so low? Rolling Stone got bread. Start with $100 million. New magazines have that much bread now. Rolling Stone should. Rolling Stone been around for a long time. That's an institution. And Rolling Stone does a lot of online as well,

but yes, Rolling Stone definitely would have the money for that. You see how much they got Gawker for, too. Absolutely. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, Dr. Oz will be joining us, so we'll kick it with Dr. Oz. He's our resident doctor.

So don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Drake with One Dance. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, we have in the building, you might know him, he was the safety for Harvard.

Never knew that. There's something every day. We know him as that. Dr. Oz, ladies and gentlemen. I did not know you played football, Dr. Oz. Yeah, I did. I came out because we were talking about the Jets and Fitzpatrick who played quarterback for Harvard a couple years after me, obviously. But one of the reasons I went into medicine was because of football.

Really? Because I loved understanding how my body functioned. I realized that the different, everyone would eat food at the place called the Harvard Union. It's where all the freshmen in the freshman Harvard yard

folks would go. And I realized if I ate good food, food that's good for me, I'd play better. And if I ate the miserable stuff that I had grown up eating oftentimes,

I didn't perform so well. Sluggish. Sluggish. When did you diagnose yourself with CTE? Not yet. It's coming up soon. When it happens, I won't know it's happening, though. Let's talk about the concussions in football since we're

talking about them. Would you advise your children or your son to play football? Or would you want them to? So my son is captain of his football team. There you go. In high school. But here's my thought. So I actually did a I made a little snippet for the NFL and I am acutely aware of CTE, you know, chronic traumatic encephalopathy and concussions. I had concussions when I was playing.

All that said and done, what I got out of playing contact sports, because it's not just football, it's lacrosse and hockey. And, you know, my youngest daughter got a bad concussion playing basketball. She was captain of a basketball team in high school. Lacrosse. You count lacrosse? Lacrosse is a tough game. A lot of people play and people whack you with a stick. Yeah, and that ball is hard. In football, you can only use your body. In La Crosse,

you can use a stick to hurt the person. I learned a lot about life playing contact sports. I think there are lots of metaphors that you can extrapolate. I think that if you're thoughtful about the injuries that might happen and quickly get out of the game.

If you are having injuries, some people have more than others. It helps. The other thing is professional football is a whole different level of head contact in high school football and high school. Love head contact in high school. Right. Well, I don't think it's, you know, we try to coach all across the country. Make sure your kids don't put their head first. It still happens.

I know it. But there's a lot more awareness to concussions than there was ever before. I've done shows on this. There's little concussion scales that parents can use for their kids so they can tell if their kids are having an issue and get them out. But there's a risk. It's still there. But at one point, you draw the line. That's the real issue, right?

Boxing was a line when I was a kid. I mean, I boxed as well. That's a dangerous sport, I think, at many levels. You boxed two doctors? Who knew? Crazy. Who would have known? It was crazy.

I just thought you was all brains. The brains came because I stopped playing some of those sports later on. You said you also played women's basketball before you guys came in here. That's right. I played basketball with women. We were talking about Common who was supporting your juice. You played water polo too? I played water polo too, yeah.

That's crazy. That's all I did was play sports. All American. School got in the way. Now, what is this thing that you brought us? Thank you for the gifts. But we see you brought us a gift. I saw him posting this.

I was excited to get it. This is the ResMed S Plus device. We have a partnership with them, and we're giving away a million dollars of these devices on the show. Really? And the cool thing about them, I think they're a fantastic device for tracking how you sleep, but they don't just look at how you're moving. They actually watch you as you're sleeping. It allows you to figure out if you're breathing the right way.

Do you have restless leg syndrome? Are you not falling asleep? Are you waking up too early? Are there sounds that are waking you up? Is the temperature of the room? What's going on in your bedroom in that atmosphere that's causing you to have problems sleeping? And the reason it's important to me is I want to gain a million nights of sleep data. I want to have a lot of people get these devices inexpensively or for free,

hook them up, and use them for you and your family. And let's figure out why we're not sleeping as a country. Because when we don't sleep, we pay a price with high blood pressure, number one cause of aging. We gain weight. We have problems with our memory. That's a lot worse, I bet, than playing sports is not sleeping, causing Alzheimer's and loss of creativity. You also can't cope with life as well.

These are depression. Your immune system gets weak, so you get the flu, but you also get cancer more often. So let's deal with the most underappreciated problem in America, which is sleep. So go to dros.com or sleepscore.com, get some of these devices, get them into your house, use them. And then I'm getting the information, so I'll share the information back with everybody. So Charlamagne, for example, has got one of these devices. I do. I'm trying to figure out how to hook it up. I'm going to help you.

We're going to come to you. We're doing intervention at your home. I'm also going to hook up your DVR while I'm there. What temperature should you sleep? Because you said temperature. What's a good temperature that people should sleep? That's a great question. 68 degrees or less.

Oh, I thought that to my wife. Yeah, if you were fighting with your spouse over the temperature of the room, whoever wants it colder wins. And one other little trick, put socks on. Because if you're wearing socks, the coldness in the room won't bother you as much. Right, it keeps you warm. It lets your core temperature get colder. You're going to hibernate at night.

And subtle things keep you up. Some people are unaware they're woken up by... Sweat wakes me up. If I sweat a lot, I have this one comforter that when I put it over me, for whatever reason, it makes me sweat, and I wake up sweating, and sweat will wake me up. You know what that's the TV on.

People sleep with the TV on. I can't sleep with the TV on. That's one of the worst habits we have. I can't stand when people sleep with the TV on. Every night before you go to bed, we ask you a couple basic questions to help track you. So we want to know if caffeine keeps you up, if the TV keeps you up, are you looking at electronics late at night?

Some people don't sleep unless they exercise, which I find for myself. If I do something physically active during the day, I can sleep so well at night. If I just sit around all day long, I can't sleep. So once we figure out what's going on in your life, we can customize advice. Like what time you eat at night sometimes. Another good example. You want to generally sleep three hours after you finish dinner. But some people get away with dinner and coffee at night.

Others don't. So if you get away with it, why hassle you over it? But if you can't get away, some people can't have coffee even in the afternoon. I'm glad we're doing this because one of my friends actually specifically asked me to ask you a question about sleep. Now, he said that he keeps on waking up in the middle of the night with anxiety, and he'll wake up, like, several times throughout the night, and feeling like he can't breathe, and I don't know what's going on. He said, can you ask Dr. Oz what is it that keeps waking me up, like I'm anxious or I

have, like, a problem? Now, is this a thug friend? Has he ever killed somebody? No. That could be it. Bad dreams. So, the tracking devices measure what kind of sleep you're getting. Is it REM sleep, deep sleep, or light sleep?

You need to have all three. REM sleep is dream sleep, and oftentimes anxieties will play out during REM sleep. So the dreams you have, even if you don't remember them, will be pretty vivid. Now, you're paralyzed when you have REM sleep. Your body is unable to move. Otherwise, you'd act out your dreams. So if your friend is having nightmares or events that are revealing anxieties, there's probably dreams associated with them.

Interpreting those dreams can be helpful. Okay. But you don't just wake up spontaneously without something that's not being resolved deep inside of you. Again, that's one of the benefits of sleep. You reboot the system. And if you don't do that right, it just builds itself up during the day. So you're paralyzed during REM sleep? I didn't know that.

Yeah, you can't move. Otherwise, you'd be jumping off buildings. I thought that was the hag riding you. So when you pee and you're asleep, that's not REM sleep? No. Like when you have the dream that you're peeing? Yeah, no. But first of all, most people don't actually pee when they're dreaming that they're peeing.

But there are some people who have that, and you don't need to be able to move to pee. That's an involuntary motion, like breathing, right? You breathe even though you can't move. You can't voluntarily move. Your body is unable to act out what you're dreaming during REM sleep. Now, other types of sleep you can. In normal light sleep and deep sleep, you can move around, but your body doesn't want to. It's trying to relax.

You're trying to rest your brain. What about wet dreams? Dreaming that you're having sex. Exactly. What about wet dreams? You guys are on the same wavelength. I mean, they look at each other. Love was in their eyes. And then I heard wet and REM. So, again. What about wet dreams? You guys are on the same wavelength. I mean, they looked at each other, love was in their eyes, and then

I heard wet and REM. So, again, it's one of those iconic human needs, and if you're not getting it, you're going to start dreaming about it, but it starts to get louder and louder until you eventually want to act out on it. But people, you talked about wet dreams are real. Some people

urinate in their dreams, other people... Bust one off. Exactly. You're giving a bunch of these away. We're giving a bunch away and sometimes these things can be expensive for people depending on their budget. So they're super discounted if they're not free. But they're out there. Take advantage of them. Closest thing

I can do to walking into your home and trying to help you get better sleep. But what I really need folks to do is use it on themselves and share it with their friends. We want to just collect information on people. We want to understand what is it that's messing with them. I'll give you an example. This weekend was daylight savings time, right? So we looked at the data from

these devices. The average American slept 31 more minutes with daylight savings. Now what does that mean? Putting the clock back an hour, which basically gave you an extra hour in your day helped you get 31 minutes of sleep. That's a huge payoff. I felt way more awake today than I have in the past couple months.

Yeah, which is fantastic. Most Americans do. Now, when we spring forward, we lose the hour. We have more car accidents. People feel badly. They're not as creative. So it just reinforces that if you control your destiny, if you could carve out one extra hour a weekend, you'd feel the way you do now all the time. All right, we have more with Dr. Oz when we come back.

Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That was Father Stretch My Hands. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club.

We have Dr. Oz in the building. Now, Dr. Oz, we're talking about sleep and getting better sleep. What about having sex before you go to bed? How good is that for sleep? For most people, it's good. But for some people, it's not. Again, you can track that as well. Puts me right to sleep.

Yeah, but most men feel sleepy after sex. Most women feel energized by sex. You got to clean the house, make something to eat. Exactly. That's because girls don't really orgasm. That's not why. Guys got off, but the girl didn't, so they're like, okay, I need to finish. That's what happens usually.

That's your house. When we look at longevity and sex, it's sort of cool. Women, it's not about numbers of time. It's about the quality of sex. That's it. And so you could play it out. You could role play. You can play with it. Play with it.

And plus the cut. By the way, he was on my show this week. We're talking about men's health. I saw him playing with like two balls. What was the two balls he was playing with? He was going to use his, and I didn't want him to, so I made him synthetic fake balls so he can demonstrate how he plays with his balls. But the reason we did it was because all week

long we had this partnership with the Today Show. We were talking about Movember, Men's Health. We did this huge survey looking at what's going on with men. So what are they admitting? What are they not admitting? So most men don't want to test touch themselves. They don't want to examine themselves. Even though testicular cancer is, you know,

in young men is one of the most common cancers. So Charlemagne kindly came on and offered to fondle these synthetic balls. Did he suck them? No, he didn't. That would have been awkward. What do you think? I love you said that, though.

Two weeks prior, I did a physical, and my doctor actually showed me how to do testicular cancer checks. Wait, so she's a woman, yeah. Oh, just the two of you? Yeah. I like that. Yeah. She taught me how to do it. Well, you know, you're supposed to do it in the shower or in a tub when they're floating.

Is that when you cough? No, coughs are hernia. Yeah. You taught me how to do it. Well, you know, you're supposed to do it in the shower or in a tub when they're floating. Is that when you cough? No, cough's for hernia. Okay. We do it as part of the same exam, but you don't need to examine yourself for a hernia. That'd be uncomfortable. But your testicles, when you get into the shower, you just feel them. See what's everything in there. If you feel like it's a marble, it's supposed to feel like a walnut.

Two walnuts, right? And one's, notice the left one's lower than the right one. They're supposed to be off so they don't bang into each other. You know the word avocado means testicle. Really? In Aztec, yeah. I don't eat avocados. Because avocados grow in pairs.

One's lower than the other, so they don't bang into each other. It's there too. And they have that gritty feeling on the outside. So they feel like testicles. They're bigger than testicles, but they feel like testicles. So next time I'm at a restaurant, I'm going to say hold the testicles. Hold testicles. Hold testicles on the salad.

What if you have like elephantiasis? Elephantiasis is a problem with drainage of the lymphatic system so your testicles swell up with fluid that can't drain back to the body. That's really uncomfortable. It's usually related to parasites in Africa and South America.

I've seen some pictures of that. Is it possible to give yourself a prostate exam? We can try. That's one of the other questions. I didn't get to this on the show with you. The average male, the average male, please audit this for me.

You want to try something? Yes. The average male thinks the prostate exam takes more than a minute. Now, to me, that's foreplay. Yeah. But, you know,

it takes like 10 seconds to do a prostate exam. I don't know what's going on. When did you do that? So prostate exams should start by the time you're about 50. Yeah, I told you. That's late to be getting your butt played with.

Yeah, but you're not going to find much out before then. And we used to do it earlier, but we don't find a lot of stuff until 50. Okay. And make sure that if the guy has both hands on your shoulders, that's not good either. You know what's funny? I went to the doctor this weekend for my

checkup. No hands. And I asked him, because I thought that you check early. He was like, no, you don't do it until you're 50 unless somebody in your family has a problem or prior or there's symptoms that you have. Well, how can you tell? Like, what do you feel that you know something's wrong? So the prostate has two little side, like, rounded surfaces to it. So you're supposed to feel both of those rounded surfaces. You're not supposed to feel anything that feels like it's an acorn or a marble.

So if your doctor's doing it before the age of 50, he's looking for a good time. No, doctors sometimes do it earlier than that if it's a family history. African-Americans have a higher incidence. That's right. African-Americans have a higher incidence of prostate cancer as you might do it there.

But listen, this is a really huge, the reason there's so much debate over this blood test, the PSA test, is that men don't realize that prostate cancer, you might do it there. But listen, this is a really huge, the reason there's so much debate over this blood test, the PSA test, is that men don't realize that prostate cancer doesn't kill you usually. In our big survey we did, that was part of the survey that Charlamagne was part of, we asked over a thousand men these questions. 80% of men think if you have prostate cancer

and don't have surgery, you're going to die. Not true. In fact, there was a big study that showed that if you get surgery versus radiation versus just watching it, the survival rate of 10 years was the same. So it's dangerous, but you don't have to jump into it. Don't overreact. Whether you find something in a prostate exam or if you find a cancer from the blood test, you can't get too aggressive too quickly. Ben Stiller, the actor, talked about his prostate cancer this month.

And he went 18 months after his blood test before he did anything about it because he wanted to just watch and see if lifestyle would turn it around. And we're learning in cancer more and more. Lifestyle makes a huge difference. Even sleep, by the way, makes a difference in how you cope with cancer.

Sleep, sleep, not only does, I mentioned, cause the flu, but it literally does cause some cancers if you don't get enough of it because it weakens your immune system. Why on American Pie did Stifler like getting prostate exams? Because you have nerve endings back there. So the G-spot, you know where the G-spot is, right?

Not in me. Not in you. Yes, it is. You have a G-spot too. Women have a G-spot that's just behind the, you put your finger into the uterus and you sort of pull up towards yourself. The G-spots there are usually in women. In males, the G-spots on the prostate.

So men have a G-spot that can be stimulated through the rectum. It's just, you know, that's not how men normally get excited, but it does happen sometimes. Can I, like, examine my boyfriend if I'm like, listen, I'm concerned, let me just check in there since you... You encouraged that on the show. When I did your show, you were saying that you should have your partner do the exams on you.

But you said prostate. I said testicles, yes. Oh, prostate. I wouldn't examine his prostate. Either or. Well, no, testicles, for sure, you should examine him wouldn't examine his prostate. Either or. Yeah. Well, no. Testicles, for sure, you should examine him. In fact, you're probably a better detective than he is.

But for a prostate exam, you really want to wear a glove and not have nails like yours. Yes, Yee, how would you have that conversation? I'm just curious. I'd be like, I'm concerned about your health. All right, bend over. All right, we got more with Dr. Oz when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. That was I Need a Girl. Diddy. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Dr. Oz is in the building. Dr. Oz, I have to ask you this question. So I have this podcast called Lip Service and we had a woman on the other day

and she says she has a really big clitoris. No, no. Really big, Dr. Oz. A little penis. She said it kind of looks like a little penis. I want to show you a picture of it and tell me, is this something that should be a concern? Poor doctor.

How do I, yes. Is that like on average? No, that's significantly larger. You know, it's really a miracle that we become males and females because it all, we differentiate in our mother's womb because we're all born, we're created the same, and then we split. So sometimes these things get, the process doesn't complete. And so you're left in the middle somewhere. We've done shows on that.

But she's in the middle. Well, they're in the middle. They're in the middle more. But, again, people have lots of problems coping with this because they're not seeing, they want to sort of be in one group or the other and they can't. And probably 1% of the population is not clearly in one group or the other. And they hurt themselves because they feel badly about it, which is don't do that. Well, it works out well for her.

I think she makes a lot of money. It might be good for her in her career. She's found her path in life. God bless her. But there are a lot of folks sitting at home right now listening who might feel that way about themselves and it's dangerous. I'll give you a little test that's a little more easy to talk about. So hold your fingers in front of you like this. Hold your right finger.

Now, is your index finger longer or shorter than your ring finger? Which one is my index? The second and the fourth. Your ring finger. This one. Yes. Mine is longer than all my other fingers. Your ring finger is the longest.

I don't know. What is mine? Mine is almost the same. The same. So for men, the ring finger is supposed to be longer. Yeah. For females, the index finger is supposed to be longer. But sometimes we flip.

Sometimes, you know, we're just, because we're exposed to hormones differently when we're in a mother's belly. But what does this mean? You're much more feminine. What does this mean? You're a classic male. Charlamagne's a classic male.

Classic male. I've always heard you could tell how big a guy's penis is from his index finger. I'm a feminine. I don't think that's true. You got Donald Trump on. Yes, I did. He's healthy. He's ready classic male. Classic male. I've always heard you could tell how big a guy's penis is from his index finger. I'm a feminist. I don't think that's true. You had Donald Trump on. Yes, I did. He's healthy.

He's ready to go. He looked kind of unhealthy. I'm going to be honest with you. According to his medical notes and the questions I asked him, he's healthy, and he's good enough to run and be president. Secretary Clinton, similarly. Her medical notes are pretty comprehensive. I know people get nervous over both of them, and they are older than our usual candidates,

but they're both plenty healthy to be president. He looked a little overweight, though. Well, he admitted that. He said he's 15, 20 pounds overweight, but that's probably typical for a lot of Americans. I mean, I think weight's an issue that a lot of folks have to deal with as they go through life. The problem is when you're young and have weight,

then it gets even more difficult when you get older, which is, again, going back to sleep again. Things like sleep, dumb mistakes like that can cost you a lot because when you don't sleep, you crave carbohydrates. And we also set up, there's all month on the show we're doing food hacks. We got the best chefs in America coming on to talk about how you can make your meals in 15 minutes or less and save money. But we're also going to walk you through some of the big food stores. How can you get healthy food, even in fast food places, and not put weight on?

Because it's a big crisis. And most of the weight we'll gain, we'll gain this time of year. Next two months, almost all the weight gain for the whole year. So if you don't gain weight over the holidays, you don't have to go on a diet in January. Because you're going to weigh the same as you did before the holidays. I saw you did this whole, you're doing this also three-day reset. Yeah. For people.

So I was taking a look at that as well. I love that. I do that all the time. In three days, you can reset the gut bacteria. Because our bacteria in our gut do most of our digestion. We outsource digestion. And so if we can get the bacteria to behave themselves, they'll work better for us. So if you eat the right kinds of foods, things like alliums.

You know what alliums are? Leeks and onions and garlics. These are foods that go into our gut and feed the good bacteria. Within three days, you can reset that system. So if you go to my app, go on my app, you'll find the three-day reset challenge there. All of our recipe plans are there and lots of great advice. Download the app. Take advantage of it.

Be part of the community. But most importantly, hack your food so you naturally are going to lose weight without working hard at it. Now Thanksgiving is coming up. How can people eat healthy for Thanksgiving if that's possible? You should. Eat healthy on Thanksgiving. No, don't. Here's the thing.

Nothing's healthier than laughing and having a good time with your family over a meal shouldn't. Eat healthy on Thanksgiving. No, don't. Here's the thing. Nothing's healthier than laughing and having a good time with your family over a meal. So don't diet on Thanksgiving. But don't do dumb things before Thanksgiving and between Thanksgiving and Christmas, which is what most of us do. We get tired. We start having to go to a lot of office parties,

drink too much at those parties. We have a hedonistic drive to eat that's unleashed by the extra alcohol in our blood. So I always tell people, always have a glass of water between each drink. It'll keep the hangover down but also... Stop you from drinking. Exactly. And fight for your sleep over

the holidays. Because when you're, again, if you're not sleeping enough, you're going to gain weight naturally. You have more time to eat and you'll eat the wrong things. Gotcha. Now this weekend, tell the people where you're going to be at and what's going on and how they can come by and support and possibly get one of these Sleep Better thingamajiggies. That's right.

So I'm going to be at the Sheraton in Times Square. It's a big iHeart event. Lots of wonderful musicians, obviously, because it's iHeart. That's 53rd and 7th. 53rd and 7th. And we're going to be playing it up with, besides giveaways like the ResMed S Plus device, we're going to be at lots of booths there. Not booze. I mean booths. Boobs booze. Charlemagne.

Booths. Boobs. Boobs. Boobs. Boobs. Boofs. Okay. Stands.

A few people at stands. You know what boofing is? Speaking of prostate exams, boofing was when you would stick things in your ass to hide them, like when you wanted to get it in the club. I didn't even know these things. Is there a Charlemagne Urban Dictionary for Charlemagne? You have a whole section for you in there. No, boofing is when you used to stick stuff in your ass to hide stuff from people.

Like hide drugs. Hide drugs. Oh, it's terrible. I have no. No, boofing is when you used to stick stuff in your ass to hide stuff. Like hide drugs. I have no personal experience with boofing. But that's not the type of booth he's talking about. Yeah, I know. 12 to 4. 12 to 4, all afternoon long. And you'll have to take pictures. I'll be talking for a while about

things that can make you healthy, but I'm going to take some questions from the audience as well. So be part of the party. And before I forget, next Thursday, if you're out in Morristown, if you're anywhere in the tri-state area, come visit me at the Mayo Performing Arts Center in Morristown. It's a great place. I'll be taking questions, lots of photos,

but also I'll be talking to folks about how they can live the good life. And these are great events that make you feel better when you leave them. And I don't get to do too many of them. It's this time of year where I get to go out and play a little more. So come join me. Okay. There you have it. Dr. Oz. Dr. Oz.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to him.

With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Is it Maxwell Haitian? I think so. Well, it looks like young Amay has a new boo, a new boo thing. Envy always asks her about her ex-girlfriend. Are y'all getting back together? Well, she's moved on, and it looks like she's with Tori Briggs now. Young Tori Briggs?

Tori Briggs is a DJ Tori Briggs? Tori Briggs is a DJ that's managed by Amber Rose. And they actually posted some Snapchat videos together. All the websites are picking it up. Drop one of Clues Bombs for Young M.A., damn it. Come on, do it, please.

No, it's not. Do it. Can you please? Can you look at the camera? Come on, please. Lord. Do it. They're singing Try Me Together in the car.

That's Young M.A. kissing her right now. Can't hear that from that audio, but that's Young M.A. kissing her. Right, and they're in bed together and everything. Fully clothed. Hey, man, drop one of Clues bombs for Young M.A. I would rather, you know, somebody like Young M.A. bag Tori Briggs than have another Canadian take one of our finest imports or exports, whichever one it is, okay?

Because these Canadian guys have been taking all of our greatest resources here in this country. So at least Young M.A. is of America, okay? All right, well, let's see how this goes. But, you know, shout out to the new couple. All right, Rick Ross. Go ahead, young MA. If that ain't inspiration to get another single,

I don't know what is. According to legal documents, Rick Ross owes $5.7 million in back taxes. That's a lot of money. They said one year in 2012 alone he owes about $4.6 million for that year. So you can imagine how much money he made if that's how much he owes.

So they have issued a tax lien and they could take away his items if he doesn't pay. He don't have lira to carry on his taxes this year, man. Lira was a good deductible. He got a bunch of properties. He be all right. All right. Now, Wale is being sued. And that was because, according to these promoters, he took some money to headline a concert, but then he didn't show up and kept the money.

That is Upfront and Personal Global. They're saying that they paid him $25,000, and he never showed up. They gave two wire transfers for $12,500 each. They said he bailed out on the show, and then they couldn't find him when he didn't show up. Was that when his child was born? Remember when his child was born, he missed a couple of shows? No, according to Wale and according to a rep, Wale never got that money.

According to Wale's rep, they said his ex-manager booked that show, took the money for it, and Wale never saw a dime, and it's the ex-manager who never returned that money. And Wale said something, too. He went on social media. I believe he was on The Shade Room, and he said that what happened was the DJ. See, now, this is where it gets confusing to me because, first, the rep is saying that,

but then Wale left a comment saying something about the DJ. They said that he was late because the DJ wasn't there yet, so they told him not to perform, according to Wale. He said, that's not true. I ain't even spoke to nobody. They told me I couldn't go on stage because I was too late because my DJ wasn't there. This is my first time hearing it. So I don't know if it was that they never got the money or if it was, according to Wale, that he was told not to go on stage. Okay.

All right. Dave Chappelle. There were rumors that he was supporting Donald Trump. Now, this all came from an article in The Observer. According to The Observer, they went to Dave Chappelle's show because he's getting ready for Saturday Night Live this weekend. So he's been doing some surprise shows. They showed up at the Cutting Room in New York, and he did a 60-minute set where he talked about Hillary Clinton,

and he kind of went in on her. He said that what he heard about her, what she said on these tapes was gross. He also said that voting for her was like if Halle Berry broke wind in his face during sexual relations. I'm still going to go for it, but I wish she hadn't done that thing. Now, according to The Observer, he did defend Donald Trump and his sexual assault and all of those things. But Dave Chappelle had this to say to TMZ. Jesus Christ. I'm not a Trump supporter.

You're not a Trump supporter? Unequivocally, no. Not going to elaborate on it? Hell no. Just everybody vote. Whoever you wanna vote for. But that's not what I'm doing. Just come see my shows for yourself and not listen to conservative paper reviews. Why would Holly Berry

fart in your face stop you? He's saying it wouldn't, but I wish he wouldn't have done that. Would you even think about that in that moment? I would think so, yeah. Depends how it smells. Yeah, it depends on the smell. Yeah, that's true. That's very true. Is there such a thing as a fart that smells good? Some farts don't smell. Some don't have a smell at all.

Some is just wind and gas. And then some it's like a little breeze. Because I feel like farts all have a, you know. Ain't no holly berry fart going to stop me, okay? I mean the old me. The new married me, absolutely. But what I'm saying is, you know, the old me. All right. Well, that's... The new married me, absolutely. But what I'm saying is, you know, the old me would definitely have sucked a fart out of

Halle Berry. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Rumor Reports. Thank you, Miss Yee. Charlemagne. Yes. Who you giving that donk to? Listen, man, I know everybody out there, you know, we have the right to vote.

Some of us aren't exercising it. I would like those of us who aren't exercising our right to vote today to come to the front of the congregation. Just want to have a little conversation with you. That's all. Okay. We'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the devil. It's the donkey of the devil.

It's the donkey of the devil. It's the donkey of the devil. It's the donkey of the devil. That's pretty funny. Charlamagne the devil? Possibly. The Breakfast Club. Yes, donkey of the day for Tuesday, November 8th.

Calls out to all you people who have made the choice to not go out and vote today. Look, you don't have to vote. It's not against the law to not vote. Technically, you don't have an obligation to vote. People who don't vote get hit with things like, if you don't vote, you can't complain. Not voting insults our veterans who fought for our right to vote. Our ancestors died for our right to vote.

It's your civic duty to vote. Are all those things true? Sure. Do you have to vote because all those things are true? I mean, you should, but you don't have to. I get it. Okay, Hillary Clinton versus Donald Trump. You don't want to vote for the lesser of two evils.

You feel like voting for the lesser of two evils is just a waste of your vote. I get it. Okay, Hillary Clinton versus Donald Trump. You don't want to vote for the lesser of two evils. You feel like voting for the lesser of two evils is just a waste of your vote. I get it. I highly disagree with you, but I get it. It's your choice. Do you? I'm just telling you I'm voting because I don't have any other bright ideas. What other choices you got? I'm not one to sit around and discuss problems with no solutions.

I can't say something won't work if I don't even try it. Now, do I think the head of state can personally save me? No, absolutely not. The head of state can personally save me? No, absolutely not. The head of state can't save you the same way you can't save these hoes. That's Jesus' job. But voting for who you think can be the best leader for this country doesn't hurt. What hurts is when you think you're going to vote someone into office and they're going to miraculously turn your life around.

No, the only thing that can truly save you is you. You must keep God first, and you must personally empower yourself and take advantage of every opportunity and get all the money you can so you can empower others. And together, we can all empower our communities. In the words of Jay-Z, you can't help the poor if you wanted them, even though I am still poor. I'm still working on the money part, but I'll get there. Now, on top of faith in God and getting this money, you must vote on a local level because I personally feel like local government impacts your community more than the head of state does. But notice, even with my other bright ideas, it still all comes back to voting.

People, you have to get out there and vote. I was listening to a TED Talk on the way into work this morning. The title of it was Democracy on Trial. It was released November 4th. And Eric Liu, an author, educator, and civic entrepreneur, gave a speech called There is No Such thing as not voting i just want everyone who is not voting to listen to eric glue and why he feels you should vote and for those of us who are voting this reinforces a lot of what we already believe

please listen to this with the intent to understand not reply this is eric glue on why there is no such thing as not voting my father the game is rig is rigged. My vote won't count. The choices are terrible. Voting's for suckers. Perhaps you've thought some of these things. Perhaps you've even said them. And if so, you wouldn't be alone and you wouldn't be entirely wrong. But in spite of all this, I still believe voting matters because it is a self-fulfilling act of belief. It feeds the spirit of mutual interest that makes any society thrive. When we vote, even if it is in anger, we are part of a collective creative leap of belief. It feeds the spirit of mutual interest that makes any society thrive. When we vote, even

if it is in anger, we are part of a collective creative leap of faith. Voting helps us generate the very power that we wish we had. It's no accident that democracy and theater emerged around the same time in ancient Athens. Both of them yank the individual out of the enclosure of her private self. Both of them create great public experiences of shared ritual. Both of them bring the imagination to life in ways that remind us that all of our bonds in the end are imagined and can be reimagined. But let me give you an answer to this question,

why bother, that is maybe a little less spiritual and a bit more pointed. Why bother voting? Because there is no such thing as not voting. Not voting is voting for everything that you may detest and oppose. Not voting can be dressed up as an act of principled passive resistance. But in fact, not voting is actively handing power over

to those whose interests are counter to your own and those who would be very glad to take advantage of your absence. Not voting is for suckers. Drop on the clues, Bob, for Eric Lou, damn it. Okay, there's nothing left to be said. Please give everyone who is not voting today the biggest hee-haw, please. It's for suckers. Drop on the clues, Bob, for Eric Lou, damn it. Okay. There's nothing left to be said. Please give everyone who is not voting today the biggest hee-haw, please. And please, please, don't flood my timeline with your empty rhetoric and world-star hip-hop conspiracy theories,

because I feel like when you're sending me all of that stuff as to why you're not voting, you're trying to convince yourself that not voting is a good idea. Have a blessed day. All right. Well, thank you for that donk of the day. Now let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051.

Check in. If you have voted already, check in with us. Oh, check in. Check in. Both my parents called me this morning already. First, my mom called me, and she was like, okay, I voted. So when you go vote, this is what you have to do. Then my dad called me right after, like, guess what, Ang?

I voted already. Who done linked up at the polls? That's right. Tell us how long the lines are. I heard there's some women at the polls in Miami, though. VIP section, let us know. We can slide right in. I heard there's some women at the polls in Virginia right now.

805-85-1051. Why you ain't saying that? You want to know where the hole's at? At the polls in Atlanta right now. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. Right now, we really just want people to go out and vote.

Not anything derogatory. Oh, my bad. Not today. What is wrong with you? Absolutely not. Go women. Too much. 800-585-1051.

If you voted, call us up right now. Check in. Let us know how the lines are, where you voted at, all that good stuff. Call us up. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's Sorry Beyonce. That was Notorious B.I.G.

One more chance. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're opening up the phone lines. We just want you to check in if you went out and voted this morning. Call us up and check in, 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? Yo, Jason. Jason, what's up, bro? You voted this morning. Call us up and check in, 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this?

Yo, Jason. Jason, what's up, bro? You voted this morning? Yeah, I just voted in Florence, South Carolina. Talk to me. Talk to me from Florence, South Carolina.

Were the lines long? No, not too long. I waited about 15 minutes, but it wasn't too bad. All right. So you feel good about yourself? Feel great. Feel great.

You're popping. There you go. We got a Republican state, but there's a lot of low-ballot candidates that we need to vote for here in South Carolina, so I'm asking everybody to go vote. I like that. You're clapping. There you go. We got a Republican state, but there's a lot of low ballot candidates that we need to vote for here in South Carolina. So I'm asking everybody to go vote. I like that.

You're focused on voting on the local level as well. I like that. Hello, who's this? It's Jamil. Jamil, good morning. Now, we're talking about voting. Did you go in already? Did you vote?

Yes, sir. Yes, sir, I did. All right. Dallas, out in Dallas, Texas. Was the lines long? No, probably about 15 minutes or so, give or take. Wasn't too bad. Who'd you vote for?

Dak Prescott, the state of Cowboys starting quarterback? Absolutely. Keep Romo on the sideline. You know, he's a veteran quarterback. Nah, we need Romo back in, bro. Nope. Listen, it's over for the pale male and the stale of our society, okay? We don't need them in leadership positions anymore.

Hello, who's this? My name is Nelson. Nelson from where? From North Jersey. All right, you voted already, bro? I did vote already. Lines long, or how are we looking out there? It was actually super bare.

There was only like one other or two other people in there that were going to vote too. And I just, on my way there, all I've seen are Trump signs on almost every line that I pass. That just made me more motivated to want to go vote for Hillary Rodham Clinton because I don't want my country run by the next Hitler. Okay. I don't know if he's the next Hitler. I just know that pale male and stale is played out when it comes to leadership positions. Hello, who's this?

Hi, this is Tiffany from Brentwood, Long Island. Hey, Tiffany, did you go out and vote yet? Yes, I did. I got up actually at 545 this morning so I could get the polls at six. Was it crowded? It actually wasn't. There was a bunch of old people. Oh, you ain't showered if you got up at 545 to get there at six.

I'm around the corner. I went right back home. No, I'm going to be totally honest with you. It's disrespectful to go vote for a woman who's president with a smelly vagina. You should be ashamed of yourself. Hey, I showered last night too, please. All right, Mama. Hello, who's this?

Hi, this is Lorena. Hey, Lorena, did you go vote this morning yet? Absolutely. I actually got off of work. My overnight job last night, I drove all the way, that's in Jersey, I drove all the way to New York to vote with my family this morning.

I'm on my way to my next job. All right, Mama. Thank you. Yes. Were the lines long? No, the lines were quick. I was in and out. It was good.

You know, as a kid, when I used to go vote with my parents, the lines used to be long. I remember having to stay online with my mom and dad for a long-ass time. And they were going, and I would have to wait for them. But for people saying that the lines are not long, it's kind of scary. Listen, every time I voted the last couple of times, there's been no line at all. I go in the afternoon. I think it depends where you live at, too, though.

Yeah. Because, I mean, if you live in an area... Because I live in... It was Queens Village, and it was packed. Like, where I live at in Jersey, it's like a local school or something I'm going to vote at. Ain't nobody over there. I can't wait to get my wife...

Mine was a school, too. It was PS34. Yeah, but you're in Queens. You're in the middle of Queens. I ain't in Queens. It's a more highly populated area. My wife texted me. It was PS34. Yeah, but you're in Queens. You're in the middle of Queens. I ain't in Queens. It's a more highly populated area. My wife texted me. It was like no line. Like, yes. Alright, well,

800-585-1051. We want you to check in. I just thought about it, though. I might just have to go in there with a Trump hat just to vote for Hillary just to be safe. Just to be safe? Yes. I'm not going in there. Well, if you see Charlene with a Trump hat on, please take a picture. Because they're going to assume because I'm black, I'm voting Democrat. I might have to sneak in with a Make America Great Again shirt on just to cash for HRC.

You better not. Call us up right now. Check in. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Bryson Tiller with Exchange. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. Now, we just want you to check in, 800-585-1051. Tell us if you voted this morning. Yeah, who linking up at the polls? Tell us how crazy the lines were,

and Charlamagne came up with a great idea for this morning's mix. The women. The women. I'm telling you, man, it bothers me. Not only does it bother me,

it befuddles me. He salute the tax on the North. It befuddles me that Hillary being a woman hasn't been more of a narrative for this campaign. We have the chance to make history again. We've had a black president for the past eight years.

Now we've got a chance to vote a woman in. Listen, it's over for white men. White men have to be so exceptional now to be in these leadership positions. Like being white with a penis just ain't enough no more. Pale male is stale. After Hillary, we got to get a Latino one. Hey, it's going to be flavor.

Like, you're going to have to add some sprinkles to that just vanilla male from now on. Well, I can't wait for this mix. Some of the songs that you were choosing, Envy, kind of don't go. So hopefully you listen. No, I got a couple. I got Who's That Girl. No, there was some, I'm telling you, they're just. Well, somebody suggested Jay-Z, 99 Problems.

I got 99 Problems, but... I told you, do not play that. But you didn't listen to me, and you went and asked every other guy, should I play it? Is that okay? I don't think that goes with the theme. It's clever, but it doesn't go with the theme, so I'm not going to play that. All women empowerment records.

You play UNITY by Queen Latifah. Oh, I forgot about that one. Let me write that one down. There you go. We cooking, we cooking. Instead of playing 99 Problems, maybe you and ITY. I'm not playing 99 Problems.

Let's see who linking up with the post. I'm playing Lox Radadachik. There you go. I need a Radadachik. There you go. I'm playing that. Are you playing I'm Every Woman?

Yeah, I'm playing Whitney. I'm playing Whitney. I'm sorry, Angie Martinez, but I'm playing Ladies Night, the full version. That's right, okay. It's Ladies Night, what? It must be Angie on her mind.

I'm playing the full version. Somebody tell Angie she's going to be mad at me. Go to the phones, man. See who That's right. Okay. It's ladies night. What? It must be Angie on the mic. I'm playing the full version. Somebody tell Angie she's going to be mad at me. Go to the phones, man. See who linked up at the polls. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Derricka calling in from Norfolk, Virginia. I just want to say I voted today so everybody get out there and exercise your right to vote. You tell them. Hey, you sound good doing that, too. You made

everybody want to go vote right now. Of course, especially in VA. Come on, man. I stood out there in the cold for an hour. Come on. What you was wearing? Come on and vote. It's important.

What you was wearing? My North Face. A North Face fleece, some jeans, and some New Balance. There you go. Man, I don't want to hear that. I want to hear that you had on something short. It's cold out there in VA. No, I'm telling you, man.

It's cold out there. But I'm telling these dudes that the chicks is at the polls, though. What's wrong with you, man? Chicks. Hello, who's this? Yes, this is Jasmine from Virginia. Hey, Jasmine. What part of VA? 757 Norfolk. All right.

The lines was long out there today? I was only in line about 20 minutes total to vote and, you know, the lines. Okay. All right. Well, thank you for voting, Mama. Thank you. Hello, who's this? My name is Carleo. Hey, Carleo, from where? I'm from Myanmar, Florida.

Oh, you voted already? How was the lines? How'd it look over there? I'm on my way to vote right now. This is my first time voting. Really? Uh-oh. Okay, good for you. I'm 18.

18, okay. That's nice. All right, congratulations getting out there and voting as soon as you're able. Thank you. Like I said, if you want to vote, bring your girl, bring your wife, bring your fiance. Make it a date lunch. Just take it. Y' said, if you want to vote, bring your girl, bring your wife, bring your fiance, make it a date lunch. Just take it. Y'all go hold hands and go vote together.

It's so romantic. It's romantic. And listen, the moral of the story is, man, I'm voting for my hopes and not my fears. I'm not voting because I'm scared of Trump. I'm voting because I have hope. Hillary will right some of her husband's wrongs and she's going to give that $25 billion to HBCUs that she promised and proper police reform.

And if she does it, we're going to hold her accountable. That's just the way democracy works. Okay? Okay. And all of our voices are loud enough to freaking hold her accountable. Hold whoever gets into the White House accountable. I just hope that it's a woman because I just feel like pale male leadership is stale nowadays, okay? You can't just be white and male and be

in a leadership position nowadays. You gotta be an exceptional white male. Pale male is stale. Sorry to our camera guy, Steve. He ain't never been in a leadership position in his life. Listen, you gotta know how to dance or something. You gotta be something other than just white and male, okay? Steve, it's okay. You've never been in a

leadership position in your life. What Lil Wayne said, you see that white man right there? He holding the camera filming me. Okay? Oh, man. We got rumors on the way. We are going to talk about numbers.

We'll tell you how Jeezy's album did over the last week and his first week of sales. Also, let's talk about voting. I'll tell you some people who are encouraging us to vote. We have some audio from them. One person wants you to vote, even though he's not eligible to vote right now. All right. Keep it locked.

Rumors on the way. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip.

The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, a lot of people are encouraging us to go out and vote, which I love. Chris Brown posted this video, but then he deleted it.

You know, I'm just encouraging everybody to go out there and vote. Whenever you do it, just hashtag it or tag me in your pictures for verification, man. You have the ability to, go and do it. It is always better for you to speak your mind and have your opinion heard and felt. It's not about my music at this point. It's just about our future. I appreciate you guys,

but I also want you guys to be aware of the power you guys have. What if Chris Brown would have said, go punch it in for a woman? And the voting booth. Stop it. Now, Gucci Mane is not eligible to vote right now, but he does want other people to get out and exercise their rights.

Here's what he had to say. We need to make a vote to stop all this police brutality. We need to make a vote to stop all this mass incarceration. All these issues are not just personal to you and your founders. They impact me. I wish that I had my right to vote. I feel like I deserve your time. Don't punch me for the rest of my life.

That's something I already did my time for. So to all of you, I want y'all to know, God vote God for me. I always was confused with that. Why can't felons vote? They live in the United States of America. No, you can't after a certain time. I didn't think I could vote for a while, but I could vote.

After a certain time, you can. I guess he's still on probation. But if you are ex-felon, you should always go look and see what your state laws are. You have no rights because you're a felon? I remember 2 Chainz saying that he didn't know he could vote and then realized that he was eligible to vote. Because if you served your time, why wouldn't you be able

to vote? Y'all focused on the wrong thing. I'm just curious. We drop on a clues bomb for the articulation of Gucci Man. If I find out Gucci Man vegan, I might go vegan. Shut up, man. That man has made a complete 180. Who is this man? Who is this Gucci man? A shout out to Chance the Rapper. Again, he was doing the whole

hashtag parade to the polls where he led thousands of people in for early voting in Chicago. And they've had record numbers in Chicago this year. So congratulations. And that's dope that Chance was doing that. All right. Now let's get into Jeezy. Congratulations to Jeezy.

He has his third number one album. Shout out to Jeezy. Trap or Die 3. Drop one of Clues Bomb for Trap or Die. Bomb is frozen right now. How is Bomb frozen? Frozen right now. Because it's snowman, bitch. That's why. Yeah, that's why. Trap or Die is. Drop one of Clues' bombs for Trap or Die. Bomb is frozen right now. How is bomb frozen? It's frozen right now. Because it's snowman, bitch.

That's why. Yeah, that's why. Trap or Die is a brand you can trust. All right. Gigi froze the bomb. They froze it. All right. Well, he sold more than $89,000 in the first week.

So congratulations to him. And also congrats to Meek Mill, who did $87,000. That's a good number for Meek. Somebody was asking me yesterday, is it bad that Meek didn't do over $100,000? I'm like, that sounds like a solid number to me, $87,000. That's pretty good number for Meek. Somebody was asking me yesterday, is it bad that Meek didn't do over $100,000? I'm like, that sounds like a solid number to me, $87,000. That's great right now. Especially that he just dropped it. It was no, he didn't promote it.

It just kind of just came out. A couple days of promotion. I'm shocked. Jeezy only got three number one albums, though. I'm pretty sure the first one, Thug Motivation 101. Right. I would think the second one

would have went number one just off the hype. I would think the Recession went number one at some point. I would think the second one would have went number one just off the hype. I would think the recession went number one at some point. I don't know. I'm sure he's happy and celebrating all of that. Yes, all the way. Yes, to Jeezy. All right, now, if you want to date President Barack Obama's daughters, would you be a little bit nervous to have to meet the president?

Or is he scared about his daughters going out there in the world and dating these guys? She might run into a Charlemagne, you know. First of all, I'm a happily married man, okay? In your younger years. And the old me would have definitely treated the president's daughter with the utmost respect. Well, she's a little too young for you, bro. I'm just saying. You're saying the old him when he was young.

All right, well, here's what President Barack Obama had to say about whether or not people are intimidated or whether or not he's scared for his daughters to date. The truth is I'm pretty relaxed about it for two reasons. Obama had to say about whether or not people are intimidated or whether or not he's scared for his daughters to date. The truth is I'm pretty relaxed about it for two reasons. One is Michelle. She's such a great example of how she carries herself, her self-esteem, not depending on boys to validate how you love her. You know, not letting yourself be judged by anything other than your character and intelligence. And hopefully I've been a good example in terms of how I've shown respect to my wife. And the other reason is because they've had Secret Service.

There's only so much you guys can do. I mean, as a man, you have no choice. Secret Service, that's it. As a man, you have no choice but to be relaxed when it comes to your daughter and boys. Because guess what? Somebody going to smash your daughter one day. It just is what it is.

You're smashing somebody's daughter. Your daughter got here because you smashed somebody's daughter. It's going to happen. Okay? And nowadays, it may not be a man. It may be a young MA. So you don't know what. You just got to embrace the fact that your daughter going to get it in out here in these streets. It is what it is. You just hope that she doesn't

when she's of age. I need secret service. Alright, well anyway, I'm Angela Yee and that is your Rumor Report. Get out and vote. All right. Now, the People's Choice Mix is up next. It's all about my ladies, my women, my girls out there this morning. I hope this ain't a premature celebration. We're celebrating the power of women, which we should do all the time. We definitely should do all the time. Absolutely.

Even more so today because we possibly could elect the first woman into the White House, which is a big deal. Why it hasn't been more of a narrative, I don't know. But once again, I hope this isn't a premature celebration. We'll have our first man in the White House. All right, well, 800... You know, like the first lady and it's the first man. Is that what you call it?

All right, well, 800-585. We going to the mix right now? All right, well, hit us up right now. Let us know your favorite woman joint, lady joint. It's the Breakfast right now? Yeah. All right. Well, let's hit us up right now. Let us know your favorite woman joint, lady joint. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Shout out to Revolt. Make sure you head out there and vote. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Had enough of this country?
