Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Listen to Escape from Zakistan.
We need help!
That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you
get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just
don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the
power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.
Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.
You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts
that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or? Breakfast Club, bitches. I'm glad they put y'all together.
Y'all are like a megaforce.
Y'all just took over everything.
Wake your punk ass up.
This is Chris Brown.
I've officially joined The Breakfast Club.
Say something, motherfucker.
I'm with it.
The world's most dangerous morning show.
Breakfast Club, bitches.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake your ass up.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Say it, say it with your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Block.
Hello, who's this?
This is Fred. What's going on?
Fred, what's popping, man? Get it off your chest, bro.
Man, first off, I'm really tired of this whole COVID stuff going on, man.
Like, it's really pushing a lot of stuff back for myself.
Keeping me away from my kids
and their mom and
that together and stuff. So it's like,
that's really hard on me right now.
The only thing I can do right now is just FaceTime
them and, you know,
talk to them on the phone. That's really good.
That's really a lesson with me.
Now, how much of a FaceTime
father were you before, though?
I mean, I FaceTime my kids down there every day.
I get to work.
When I'm on my break, I FaceTime them right before they about to go to bed.
When I'm about to go on my lunch break at work, I call them.
I'm at home.
I'm FaceTiming them, telling them how much I love them and all that.
But the only thing that's changed is you don't get them on the weekend?
I can't get them on the weekend.
Yeah, basically, you know.
Okay, okay.
We try to work through it.
It's also the COVID.
It's also putting back my competition.
What competition?
It's a bodybuilding competition.
I've been dieting and training for this dang competition for two damn years now.
Well, that's good.
That'll be back when everything opens back up.
At least you're taking care of yourself.
How's your diet now that you're at home?
You said, what, uh, you?
Are you able to work out at home still
and keep yourself up?
Yeah, but it's the whole workout ain't the same.
He wants that competition.
It's a whole different feeling.
You know, you can get way more weights in, better reps in, all that.
You know, you got all the equipment that the gym gives at home.
You know, I got my little weights, dumbbells, resistance bands,
and air rollers and all that.
There's nothing like this.
The most important thing about the home workout
is the most important thing about any workout, and that's the diet.
Because it's so easy to snack and get back in the carbs at the house.
Like, you really got to watch your diet at the crib.
Yeah, you know, I still be on that.
You know, I stay in my yams and my vegetables and stay weight, weighing myself out and meal prep.
But at the same time, you know, when're doing this consistently and then you finally want to just
go to Buffalo Wild Wings or get
a good old steak
dinner.
Your confidence gets pushed back again.
You just like, ugh.
Well, at least you're safe and at least
your kids are safe. At least you're safe.
I can't believe he's going to Buffalo Wild Wings
for steak dinners. What is going on
in the world?
Good morning.
Y'all are crazy.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning, Angela.
Hey, Snack Man.
Oh, boy.
What's up?
How are you?
I'm doing good.
How are you?
How's the comedy going?
I'm very good.
I'm old.
My blood type's O positive, so I'm at low risk, but I wash my hands and all that stuff. But listen, I've been writing mad jokes here.
I got a joke for you.
You ready?
Oh, boy.
Ready. What do you call...
Hello? Go ahead. We're ready.
Thank you. What do you call
the COVID-19 virus
with a death rate of 2%?
What?
The Corona light.
Thank you.
I'm going to be honest with you, man. That joke
just made more people sick in the country than coronavirus has in three weeks.
Hello, who's this?
This is Kiara.
Hey, Kiara, get it off your chest.
I just want to say that when you guys go to the grocery store,
don't come in there with an attitude because that just makes everybody's job harder.
Right.
That's right.
To everybody who's helping y'all because when y y'all coming out with an attitude, don't
nobody want to help y'all?
I agree with that.
And I'm always extremely appreciative when I go to the supermarket and I see people who
are working and stocking the shelves and checking people out and making sure the self-checkout
is working well.
I'm very grateful and appreciative to see everybody at work.
Well, I appreciate that because people come in every day with an attitude like,
like I'm supposed to be here.
I don't have to be here.
Well, you know what, though?
You're giving out free jewelry that people can use for life, though.
You know what I'm saying?
When you walk in the room, you can dictate the energy of the room
by the energy that you're giving out.
Definitely, definitely.
All right.
Well, have a good one, Mama.
And I have found that people have been extremely pleasant,
like their work at the supermarket
And so you know I appreciate that too
I really every time I'm like thank you so much for coming to work
I appreciate it
I never said that before but now I'm like
Thank you so much for coming to work
Absolutely

Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired?
Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country.
I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Laudonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
The Waikana tried my country.
My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a racket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.
Listen to Escape from Zakistan.
And we're losing daylight fast.
That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams.
I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.
For self-preservation and protection. It was literally
that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment
of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.
Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app,

Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.
You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after
a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real,
inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High.
It's where we take the conversation beyond the
run and get into the heart of it all it's light-hearted pretty crazy and very fun
listen to post run high on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts
this is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed.
You better have the same energy.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Ali from Jacksonville.
Ali, what up, bro?
Dubon!
Already.
Hey, listen, I got a question for y'all.
Yes, sir.
And I just want to hear your opinion about this.
It's amazing how white people could call black people the N-word.
It's not a big deal.
Black people could call white people crock-ass crocker.
It's not a big deal.
But when somebody speaks their opinion about the LGBT community,
that's a big uproar.
And that's just somebody speaking their opinion about that.
I'm just trying to see what's the big uproar.
If everybody have their opinion, let them speak their opinion.
If that's what they want to do, let them do that.
They should embrace that's what they are, and it's cool.
It should be a big, dramatic uproar.
And I just want to hear your opinion about that from both of y'all.
Well, white people say the N-word.
It is an uproar.
It definitely is.
I don't know where you are.
Yeah, it is an uproar.
Not really. Yes, it is. I don't know where you are. Yeah, it is an uproar. Not really.
Yes, it is.
People definitely have gotten fired for that.
It's not an uproar like the LGBTQ community.
What the hell is the LGBT?
Now, that cable package you just talked about is way worse than the basic one.
Now, the basic one is LGBT.
I don't know why you just got rid of the G.
Well, I don't know the alphabet, man, but I just want
to hear y'all opinion about that.
Like, when Booster said
his comment, it was a big uproar. When
whoever said anything
what really got me was when Wendell Williams
had to apologize for what she said.
It's like, come on, man. You can't have an
opinion about that? Well, listen, here's the truth to the
matter. You got to know who you effing with. You know what I'm saying?
You slap somebody in the face, they might slap
you back. You slap somebody else in the face, they might punch
you and knock you out. You slap somebody else in the face, they
might pull out a gun and shoot you. You got to know
who you're dealing with. That's all. And be
ready to deal with them. Yeah, I just
don't get it, man. Everybody should have their own
opinion. There shouldn't be a big
deal about it. If that's what they
choose to do, that's on them. Let
them embrace it and move on.
So listen, why is this
the first thing on your mind in the morning, though?
No, it's not. I just can't get it.
No, yes it is. Yes it is.
Have a good one, bro.
But why does it matter how
other people live their lives anyway?
If it doesn't affect you, if you're not part of
the LGBTQ plus community,
why does it bother you? Hello, who's this not part of the LGBTQ plus community, like, why does it bother you?
Hello, who's this?
Hello.
Hey, what's your name, bro?
Hello.
Money-making Mitch, how y'all doing?
Money-making Mitch, you ain't making no money right now.
You ain't making no money in a recession.
You crazy. Cut it out, Charlemagne.
How you making money? Tell me how you making money.
By giving proper advice on how people should be really clean in their house.
That's enough money for me to educate these people.
Oh, you finessing.
Of course.
If you really, really, really want to kill this coronavirus,
all hospitals and everybody's home, just start from the sterilization room.
Start from the bathroom.
Then work your way out.
Everything you use in the bathroom, you can use around your whole apartment.
Every hospital that's scared,
they have training.
Sterility is important.
So if you just expand your sterilization
department and make the whole hospital
sterile, then everything, every
item, every equipment,
every instrument can actually
be used properly.
Money-making Mitch, let me ask you a question. People actually paying for this advice? Of course they are. every instrument can actually be used properly. All these numbers...
Money-making Mitch, let me ask you a question.
People actually paying for this advice?
Of course they are.
Cleaning the bathroom?
Cleaning your bathroom actually...
I agree that you have to do sterilization,
but you do know that it's transmitted from person to person, right?
Exactly, but it depends on how many people are in your house
and do you have a team that's doing sterilization.
This is a family.
This isn't people from next door coming into my house.
How are you making money off this?
Yeah, I'm confused. How do you make money?
Oh, you're talking about
financial money. I don't need financial
money. I don't need no finances. I'm fine.
Financial. What other money is there?
Yeah, my money's there, but financially
I'm fine. But the other money
is the other important money that is
information. Knowledge is power.
Knowledge is currency.
You mean, I get what you're saying.
You know, so that right there alone,
I'm saving lives by telling people
I served in the military 17 years as a
medical officer. I've done
all forms of surgery. I've been in
so many different situations and we treat
every patient. Now, this is the coronavirus.
We treat every patient as if they were HIV. Now we and we treat every patient. Now, this is the coronavirus. We treat every patient as if they were
HIV. Now we have to treat every
patient as if they have HIV, Corona
and all these other
symptoms. That's pretty
dope because now you have to stay on
top of sterility for the rest of your
life. You understand?
This should be an awakening call.
Thank you, brother, for calling, man.
I don't understand, but to you know, to each his own.
You talking about that type of money?
You talking about financial money?
What other money is there?
He meant currency, that's all.
Oh, currency.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, guys.
It's Maribel, one of the Kelly girls.
Hey, one of the Kelly girls.
How are you, Maribel?
Good.
Uh-huh, guys.
It's been a while.
Thanks for taking my call today.
Not kidding.
What's it called?
I've been waiting, and no one's been taking my call.
How are you, first of all?
How are you and the Kelly girl quarantining?
It's terrible.
I'm bored out of my mind.
We're bored out of our mind.
You guys are quarantining together, right?
Yeah, we are.
Okay.
And, I mean, she, well, my sister's keeping up with school,
and I'm just kind of doing my own thing, kind of trying to figure out life.
Just floating.
This is a good time to figure out life, though.
This is a great time to figure out life.
It is.
And that's been on my head.
Like, it's just been trying to figure out life.
But it's fine.
That's good, baby.
And we're glad you're safe.
Y'all can stay healthy, all right?
Yeah.
Oh, shout out to Dante on Top Flight Security.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest on the line right now. Kelly Rowland. The Godiva chocolate coffee goddess.
What's up? How are you Chocolate Coffee Goddess. What's up?
How are you?
Good morning.
What's happening?
Good morning.
This crazy pandemic.
Uh-huh.
How are you holding up in this pandemic?
You've been looking amazing and an inspiration to all of us.
Thank you.
Those first two, three weeks in quarantine, I was learning how to cook
and Titan was baking
cookies and brownies and stuff every day.
I was like, I can't be doing this every day.
I got caught up. I almost
got that quarantine 15 and then I
had to get my life.
How much did you gain?
I gained 20, but I lost it though. How much
did you gain?
I gained at least almost 10
because he was, I'm telling you,
he was baking cookies. I have a friend of
mine who barbecues, and I love barbecues.
So she kept bringing barbecue
over here because it was like a comfort food.
You know, in a time where it's just so much uncertainty, you want
some comfort food. That's exactly what I was doing.
And we started making pasta. I learned
how to make pasta. I was like, oh, I got this down.
So I made it every other night.
Uh-uh.
You ain't going to have me.
So what's your specialty in the kitchen?
Right now, it is the pasta.
I've got the pasta down.
I made trout and salad.
And I just learned how to make oxtails.
Really? Really?
Really?
Yes, yes.
A Jamaican homie showed me how to do it, so I got it.
So now we know why the bikini pic came,
because you had lost them 15 and you was feeling good about yourself.
She said 10, Charlamagne.
She said she gained 10, Charlamagne, 10.
Now, how's the baby doing? How is the baby now? Because baby's what, five, six years old? She said 10, Charlamagne. She said she gained 10, Charlamagne, 10. Yeah, I gained 10.
Now, how's the baby doing?
How is the baby now?
Because baby's what, five, six years old now?
Right now, no baby.
That's not a baby.
Mine is still cool.
My baby's mine.
I got a six, five, and a three.
They're my babies, but go ahead.
No, but Enzi, he's not a baby no more.
The way he talks to me,
Titan is watching documentaries.
Like, he is just his own little person, and it's the
coolest thing to watch, and I'm just
mad I didn't go back-to-back like you
told me. I told you back-to-back.
Have another one. I'm mad I didn't
go back-to-back. They keep each other company.
They in there with each other. They play all day.
They only come to me when they gotta
eat, and when they gotta
go to the bathroom.
Other than that, they don't bother me at all.
They just do, well, they bother me in the morning sometimes.
But other than that, they're good.
Yo, that's the hard part is because, like, me and his dad are his playmates.
So it's like, Mommy, can you play with me?
And it's the sweetest voice.
You can't be a jerk and say, oh, no, or whatever.
Like, I have to, like, really, like, stop what I'm doing
and have kind of, like, shifted my schedule to, like, around his wake-up time.
You know what I mean?
And we've quarantined, like, really tough with another family.
So he has his best friend that comes over that's about it.
You know, Kelly, I was watching you on Mother's Day,
and I was watching you post, like, all your friends
and all of y'all have become mothers now and I was like
how has motherhood changed the dynamic of your crew?
Um, we can
just sit down somewhere,
drink wine and watch them play.
Word, word.
I mean, I think it's really
um, I remember when I had
Titan and Solange
made this post that just made me boom cry.
I actually looked over all those and I was crying that day too because it's really awesome to grow up with someone that you've been knowing since you were nine years old or younger.
I know for some folks out there, and y'all get to share life together.
That's really a blessing.
And I didn't take it for granted.
And whether it was women that I knew on my story or women that I didn't know,
I just wanted to post mothers.
Like, you know what I mean?
And it just, like, some of them I've known for a long time and watched grow up,
and we've probably done some crazy shit together, but now it's just like we've grown.
And motherhood is a blessing for sure.
All right, we got more with Kelly Rowland when we come back.
Don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We're still kicking it with Kelly Rowland.
Charlamagne?
Kelly, how do you know when a pick is not a thirst trap?
Because you said the bikini pick wasn't a thirst trap.
How do you know when it's not?
Oh, y'all know. That was's not? Oh, yeah, no.
That was a play on words, Charlemagne.
Damn.
Got you.
Okay.
As you take a drink of water.
Okay.
Exactly.
So it did its job,
because I saw Rick Ross jump in the comments.
What did Rick Ross say?
He said, you got a bright future.
That's what he said.
What?
Did he say that for real?
Yes.
No, Tim posted, he said, every night I got to prove my love.
Do you remember that line from, oh, my God.
Was it the five heartbeats?
Was it the five heartbeats?
Every night I got to prove my love.
I was like, boy, please.
He didn't know you were going to post that before you posted it?
Or did you be like, I'm about to post this?
I'm going to tell him.
So what did he say?
And how does he feel when all these guys are making these comments like Ross and all?
What is that conversation like?
That little glitter like every night I got to prove my love.
That's real.
That's real. That's real.
That's why he got to go out there with them golf clubs.
He mad as hell.
He stressed out.
Then he come back in like, okay, I'll figure it out.
What if he blocked you from that?
No, no, no.
I ain't going nowhere.
Tim is my bestest friend.
Charlie ain't seen us together.
Y'all have seen us together.
Yeah, I seen you guys in Houston in the club.
What if he posted a thirst trap?
Tim would never do that.
What if he put on some gray sweatpants, no shirt?
You know, the gray sweatpants pictures that guys do.
Oh, the gray sweatpants shirt?
I don't think I would care.
Don't give him no ideas. Yeah. Don't give him no ideas.
Yeah, don't give him no ideas. What if he created
an OnlyFans account?
What if he created an OnlyFans account?
Wait, wait, wait.
Hey, Tim.
You gonna put on some gray sweatpants and post
a picture?
He said, what?
You gonna put on some gray sweatpants
and post a picture? He said, I ain't don't want to put on some gray sweatpants and post a picture?
He said, I ain't thirst-tripping like you.
Me?
When the album dropping, Kelly Kel.
I don't know.
But it is coming.
2020, this year. Wait, wait, wait. Can I just Are you afraid? I'm doing it.
2020, this year.
Wait, wait, wait.
Can I just say something here?
I can say something.
I'm paying for everything out of my pocket.
Okay.
I'm paying for everything out of my pocket.
So I'm trying to be smart about everything.
About my songs, everything.
But I'd like to do a video.
When the hell am I doing a video?
I don't know.
Oh, wait a minute.
You're not on a label?
No. Oh, I didn't know that Oh, wait a minute. You're not on the label? No.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Wow. You're just with Roc Nation. Roc Nation is managing you still or partly managing because I know
hubby manages. Roc Nation is
managing, yeah. So it's just
like really, you know,
tricky with, you know, us wanting to
do videos, but it's definitely
like, man, it ain't
gonna happen for a while. But you know
what? I've seen people do creative things right now
as far as figuring out how to do a video
like G-Eazy had people send in
different things and he filmed his part
and you have so many people that you could get
some really dope content from
if you wanted to film something to figure it out.
And I did have my assistant
hit him, so we'll see
what happens with that.
So we got to make sure.
I love finding new things and giving people an opportunity.
Sounds good.
One more thing.
Have you seen that old Destiny's Child clip that's floating around the Internet
and y'all just talking about all type of birds and s***?
Were y'all high in that video?
No.
You know good doggone well we were not high enough. It sounded like y'all high in that video no you know good doggone well we were not
it sounded like y'all was high though no no that was the 13th hour of the day where i remember
they put on our schedule like this whole by the way the reason why we were i feel like truly we
were such successful international successful internationally internationally because we put the work in over there.
We'd be over there for like seven days in eight different countries and literally just like have interviews all day.
And that was the 13th hour of wherever it was where this gentleman's accent was, because I don't remember.
It was definitely a blur.
And he was asking us all these questions.
So, yeah, when you ask somebody, what kind of animal
do you want to be? I hope he ever
like,
you know,
that's not
happening.
Like,
we were deliriously out of
our minds.
So, no, I mean,
it would definitely probably sound cool
to say, yeah, man, we were,
but we were not.
Far from that.
We were just delirious.
All right.
It's Kelly Rowland.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
It's topic time.
Call 800-585-1051
to join in to the discussion
with The Breakfast Club.
Talk about it.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we are talking about Eva.
She was on Wendy Williams' show, and she talked about her child
and changing her child's last name.
Let's hear it.
Sterling, like everybody else.
She changed her name this past year.
It was, we went through a lot's hear it. Sterling, like everybody else. Yes, we legally changed her name this past year. It was, we went through a lot
to do it, but. How much more before the
actual process is
done? Well, the name
change is illegal, so now we have to go through the
adoption process, and I mean, he's
making it a little bit easier for us, acting
crazy in the public. Well, I guess
Life Jennings seen that, and he didn't like that
too much, huh, you? He said, I think this is so whack
changing your daughter's last name from her father's to somebody else's,
especially when the father tries to see her.
The daughter don't have anything to do with their beef.
And what kind of man allows that ish piss me off.
So we're asking 805-85-1051.
Is it acceptable to change your child's last name?
What do you think, Charlamagne?
I mean, I got to know the context of the situation.
You know what I'm saying?
If you're doing it just out of spite, just because you don't like your baby daddy
because he don't want to be with you
and you got a new man now, that's whack.
But I mean, if you got a deadbeat daddy.
What about if it's a deadbeat daddy?
The dad's not around.
The dad is not taking care of the child.
I have no problem with that whatsoever.
By the way, the son of the daughter
shouldn't want to wear the name of a deadbeat.
Yeah, I don't know either situation, but, you know, with Kevin McCall,
I mean, we all know Kevin McCall has problems mentally,
but it does seem like he is trying to take care of his daughter.
It seems like he goes to court.
I just don't know.
I don't know if he's abusive.
I don't know.
You know what I mean?
But in a situation, if there is a deadbeat dad,
and I'm taking it away from that situation,
if the dad is not in the child's life,
and he's not even helping no way whatsoever,
no, I say change that name immediately.
What do you think, E?
Well, legally, if a woman wants to change
her children's last names,
she either has to get consent from the biological father,
and if he doesn't give consent, he can object to it,
and then she has to get a petition and then go to court,
and he can show up to court and say
he doesn't want that to happen,
and then the judge has to decide. so that's how it goes down legally but i do feel like whoever
um is the father if the mother chooses to do that and the father is causing issues or he's not in
the child's life we're not holding up his responsibilities and he's not really a dad
and if the last name is zimmerman you definitely want to change that you don't want to walk around
with that last name goodness gracious hello. Hello, who's this?
Sheila from Jersey.
So what do you think?
Is it acceptable to change your child's last name?
No, I don't agree with that.
Okay, go ahead.
No matter how much you don't like your kid's dad,
or no matter how crazy he might act,
or no matter what he does,
changing the last name is not going to change the DNA.
It's not going to change who the father is.
So you have to get over that.
And on top of that, like, you're falsifying an image of somebody that's not true.
Like, that's not her dad.
And if one day it doesn't work out between you two, now he legally is her dad,
and that's not really her dad.
You know what I mean?
Like, it's just stupid.
It's petty.
It doesn't make the other person your dad.
They would have to actually adopt the children so that the kids aren't adopted, even if you're married, right?
No, but I'm talking about, like, the image that you're portraying to your children.
Now, what if your kids are like, I want to have the same last name as you and my dad, you know, the stepfather?
Well, I mean, that's a choice that they have to make, and the two parents should come to a, you know, to a middle ground with.
That would be their choice. But if they're not old enough to make those type of decisions, just saying that because
whatever the situation is, you know, like some kids, they grow up and they're told this
is their dad, this is their dad.
And that's what they think, you know, like.
Okay.
What if the biological father is absent from the children's life?
Me personally, I don't agree in that. My father was
not in my life either, and my
mother still maintained
our last name as his. I mean,
I guess that would be up to
the child when they grow up to decide
if they want to do that or not.
Okay. Thank you, Mama. I just wouldn't do
that. Okay. Hello, who's
this? This is Boom
from Dayton, Ohio.
Hey, is it acceptable to change a child's last name?
I think it just really depends on the circumstances.
You know, my daughter, her father is not in her life
and has never been in her life, which is fine,
but she still has his last name.
And I don't tell her, like, bad things about her dad you know she can
find out on her own just like my mom told me about my dad but um i don't think a name defines a
person now if you have you know someone new in your life and they you want to spend the rest of
their life with you and you know you know you and your kids are a package deal.
And if that dad is not, you know, in that child's life, I don't see a problem with it being.
But, you know, then you got these bitter baby moms.
You know, you got these, you know, baby moms that, you know, couldn't change the man's life with a child.
And, you know, being used as a tactic to attack.
Right.
You know, so, you know, a baby is not a pawn, you know.
Right.
So whatever that child's name is, leave that baby alone.
Okay.
But, you know, I think it is also like, as we always talk about women taking the husband's
name after marriage, I think for kids, if you live in a house with the mom and the stepfather,
and that's who you know is your dad and you call him dad, you might want to have the same last name.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning, this is Nathan out of Orlando, Florida.
Good morning, Ashley.
Good morning.
What up, bro?
Peace, King.
Is it acceptable to change a child's last name, brother?
Nah, nah, brother.
I don't think it is, man.
I want to share and expand.
I'm glad you got picked up.
I actually had an ex-wife who tried to do that to me.
And I would like to use her government, if that's okay with y'all.
Just the first name, please.
Sandra.
Okay.
I don't know.
South Carolina.
Child of Maine.
I already know.
You got you a nice country-ass dad.
Yep.
Tried to do that to your boy.
And I think that's hateful and disrespectful to a man.
I don't think another wife should do anything like that.
Were you in your child's life?
Are you in your child's life?
I am in my child's life.
I love my kids very much.
I'm a Virgo.
You already know how we do.
That's right.
Love our kids.
Okay.
Take care of our home.
So what happened?
Did she try to do it legally and then you blocked it?
She talked about trying to do it.
She got a lawyer to try to do it, and then I, you know,
kind of paid a little bit of money out there, and, you know,
they dropped the whole thing. Okay.
All right, well, thank you, brother. So what's the moral of the story, guys?
The moral of the story is that every
case is different, though, and there's no one-size
fits all when it comes to family.
So I think whatever decision
you make, it always has to be in the best interest of
your children and not in your own
selfish best interest.
The moral of the story is y'all better stop picking who y'all meet with like y'all rolling dice in the back of a moving goddamn pickup truck.
OK, that's what y'all better stop doing.
All right. Take care of your kids.
Exactly. When you lay down with these when you lay down with people, man, you know, think about spending the rest of your life with this person because you never know.
This person might give you a disease you can't get rid of. This person give you a baby or better yet you might grow to love this person and be
married to him the rest of your life either way that's all forever just pick the right forever
when you're dealing with these people okay all right we got more coming up next we're the breakfast
club the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj nv angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the
breakfast club we got a special guest on the line.
Friends in the room.
D.L. Hughley.
Welcome, sir.
Hey, man.
I'm glad y'all still made it.
I'm glad y'all all right.
We all right, right?
We haven't left the house.
I don't know about you.
Oh, yeah.
Well, you know, here's the thing.
I go to work and I come back.
Because we're doing the TV show and the radio show.
So I'm the only dude I know that would build a set during the middle of a coronavirus.
But, yeah, we go to work every day.
Now, of course, even though I work with my daughter, I haven't hugged her in three weeks, three months.
But, you know.
Really?
No.
What precautions do you take?
You put a mask on?
Yeah.
A mask, gloves, the whole thing.
Except when I'm broadcasting, then I don't.
But other than that, when we're shooting, other than that, we just kind of.
I think I just I'm really sad because even though you see the deaths going up, this drive.
And I understand it because ultimately your answer can't just be everybody stay home.
But it's just sad that the fact that it's the people who are dying
that the American population are not uncomfortable with.
Old people, black people.
And black people.
Poor people.
Yeah, I mean, you know what?
The one thing we'll never run out of is poor black people or poor brown people.
So I figure they figure we're expendable.
You know, it's a crazy deal.
We had the same thought because I said that I saw you post this on Instagram.
And literally, like, I might have posted it seconds after.
But I said, you know, America's economy is an omelet.
And poor people and black and brown people are eggs.
And they don't mind breaking a few eggs to make that goddamn omelet.
The one thing they'll never run out of is poor black and brown people.
That's the one thing we have.
And old people, like, if you look at who's coming down with diseases,
primarily people in prison, people who work in
meatpacking plants or in close proximity,
old people,
and black and brown
people. And America's like, man, why should I not
have a mall open because
the undesirable, the people that we
have to figure out where to warehouse
are dying. And I think
it's really America's real life nature selection of the purge.
Who do you trust and who do you listen to when it comes to what's going on during this pandemic?
Because I was watching your show and I was watching you talk about Dr. Fauci and talk about Donald Trump.
And basically, Dr. Fauci is a co-defendant, right, for Donald Trump because he's not stepping in.
He has to be.
Ultimately, you know the kind of people who listen to that man.
And he needs to be challenged directly.
And I think when a man like that tells you that, well, first off, I didn't mind him saying, you know,
them ingesting disinfectants because the bleach is perfect
for the Trump supporters
because it works great on whites and it's hell on colors.
So it's a...
But when that man...
He wasn't in there when he made that particular statement,
but look at all the statements that took flight
that he later on went on other avenues
and then tried to correct
as opposed to doing it right there.
The oath he took was not to an administration.
The oath he took was to do no harm.
And he does harm when he sits there and he lets those things happen.
And what he wanted to avoid was him being silent, and he has been.
And I think it's just cowardice.
I think you're a doctor.
Anytime somebody – what happened to the other disease that he touted?
The other drug that he touted?
Hydrochloroquine or whatever that is.
Hydrochloroquine.
Hydrochloroquine.
If you spend the last few weeks listening to the president,
look how many people would be dead.
Like literally just listening to him.
So you can't be the greatest nation in the world
when you can't listen to your leader, when they go, no, don't listen to him. So you can't be the greatest nation in the world when you can't listen to your leader,
when they go, no, don't listen to him.
And you sit there and say it, and you're an accomplice, you just let it happen.
It's insane to me.
And I think that he has been able to manipulate, you know, senators and congressmen,
and now the medical establishment, and I think it's to America's detriment.
Now, what do you think about Joe Biden right now?
And, you know, because right now it's either Joe Biden or Donald Trump.
What are your thoughts on Biden?
Well, I can't wait to vote for Joe Biden.
I'm going to wait.
No, I wouldn't risk my life, you know, going to the mall,
but I would vote for Joe Biden, I'm telling you.
And this whole Tara Reade thing and whether he did what she said,
America in four years ago, three or four years ago, I'm telling you. And this whole Tara Reid thing and whether he did what she said.
America in four years ago, three or four years ago, decided that sexual assault was not that sexual assault was not.
You could not be excluded from the presidency for being a sexual assaulter.
They already said that. They already said you grab all you want.
You can do whatever you want. We don't care about that.
So I don't care about it now. If you didn't care about it it then let's not make that a prerequisite for being the president right now and i think ultimately if you look what america needs more than anything
else is somebody who pays attention to science and more than anything else they need somebody
who's empathic somebody who gives a if people are dying not one time has this dude said, I'm sorry. Not one of his hotels is open to take coronavirus.
Nothing.
Nothing.
Not one modicum of sympathy or, listen, in America right now,
before we're done with this conversation, thousands of people would be dead,
and this nation doesn't look like it's mourning at all.
It doesn't look like it gives a f**k at all.
I agree with you, D.L., but I don't think none of them care.
And the reason I don't think none of them care is because at the end of the day,
all of them care about the bottom line, which is the economy.
Now, how they present it may be different.
Some of them might be straight up with you and be like,
hey, mother******* is going to die.
Others might be like, that's wrong.
What's happening?
But you know what?
Let's reopen.
But that's not too much different than us.
Like, literally, I care about the economy, but I know things got to get back.
It's unsustainable to have people warehouse or shelved in their homes.
But ultimately, you have to have people – when you ask to leave people,
you've got to at least care about them.
Right.
I mean, like, you know that if you take a drug, it can hurt.
Even if you give a vaccine out or you issue a drug,
for some people that drug may be detrimental.
It may cause them harm.
But it doesn't mean you don't try to do the best you can for as many people as you can.
Who has he done the best for?
Literally.
Who does he care about?
Rich people.
He doesn't even care about his own people.
Literally, he'll sacrifice them.
You literally have somebody every day.
People are dying and all he talks about is he stood up. When he did
the Lincoln, the interview
in front of Lincoln, mother******, you talking about
how bad it was in front of a mother******
who got shot. Got a shot.
Got his head blowing off.
He got shot.
Alright, we have more with D.L. Hughley.
When we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Roll another one.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with D.L. Hughley.
Yee.
What do you think about people discussing, quote,
holding your vote hostage because they want to make sure that...
Don't say people.
Diddy.
Me.
Yeah, but there's a lot of people that are
agreeing with that. So people are saying that.
And a lot of people agree
to anything. There was a lot of... If somebody said they were
Jesus, a thousand other people would take
up the call. So that's
stupid. But it's dumb. Black people
are dying from this. Black people.
So maybe... And Puffy's
statement was irresponsible
and deadly. I'll tell you this.
Black people are dying disproportionately
from this. We are.
Us, our grandfathers,
our mothers, our fathers. So maybe
what we get right away is somebody
who isn't concerned that we are
dying. Maybe we get to f***ing survive.
How about that? How about
take that, take that. How about we survive?
How about we get somebody that we're dying by the dozens and nobody gives a f*** about it. How about that? How about take that? Take that. How about we survive? How about somebody that we're dying by the dozens and nobody gives a fuck about it?
How about that? How about I pick somebody who at least will pretend to give up?
I have to respectfully disagree with you, DL.
I think that I don't think there's nothing irresponsible about demanding something for your vote, because let's be clear.
Black people aren't dying because of coronavirus. Black people are dying because of systemic racism.
The underlying conditions of systemic racism that America has laid down for decades and decades and decades
that nobody from any government, any particular party has helped us with.
All they've done is contribute to the systemic racism that exists in the black and brown community.
So it don't matter if it's coronavirus, cancer, diabetes, whatever the next disease is going to be,
we're going to always be vulnerable until we change that.
And you know what we need to change? Participation.
More people didn't vote than did.
More people didn't vote than did.
And maybe what we need to ask, and if you're going to make an ask, what is it we all collectively want?
There you go.
You can say, I've got to get something for my vote.
But if you're something, there should be at least collectively things that we can all collectively want. There you go. You can say, I got to get something for my vote, but if you're something,
there should be
at least collectively
things that we can
all agree on.
But if your ask
is different than my ask,
then we don't,
neither one of us
get quite what we want,
then we say,
I won't participate.
Listen,
us not participating
is the best thing
in the world
and it contributes
to what we go through
right now.
You have to participate regardless.
It doesn't matter in terms of the resources that are allocated.
It matters now.
So even if we are poor and we're in the situation we're in,
our educational situation, the prison system,
is as much a lack of participation on our part
and showing up on our part
as any other factors that we have to deal with.
We already know they don't want us to do it.
But to say to me that I'm just going to sit there
and nobody's doing anything, so I'll just
sit here. You know,
in a movie called The Edge,
he said that most people die of shame,
and that's inactivity. And us doing anything,
us doing nothing,
is the proper solution? I don't agree.
I agree with you, but I would say
this, though. I would say this, though.
You know, you look at it like this.
I don't want people to feel like, well, the blacks will vote for me because I'm better than Trump.
That's not a reason to vote for somebody.
You know what I mean?
And that's my only fear.
Like, I feel like when we put that pressure on Joe Biden a little bit, then all of a sudden he did lift your every voice.
He came with the black agenda.
You know what I mean?
And I feel like we have to continue to put
pressure on people and make sure we get what we
want because now it's not. We're not just voting
for you because we don't want to vote for Trump.
We want to vote for you because we feel like you're going to do something for
our people and our kids and our community.
What do we want?
Collectively, what do
we want? What is it?
I would like to see
some form of economic justice. We know this country is never going to give us reparations but like to see some form of economic justice.
You know what I'm saying?
We know this country is never going to give us reparations, but it can be some type of equity plan.
It can be some type of equity plan that we put money into these poor and disenfranchised communities to make the schools better, to make the housing better, you know, to make the hospitals better, to give people access to better health care.
That's a level of specificity.
I think proper and adequate education for all of our children.
I think that our women, that we shouldn't have inadequate health care.
I think those are asked, but just to say in a nebulous way that you've got to give me
something.
It's so nebulous.
It's like a woman telling you, make me happy without giving you any guidelines.
Right.
You know you've got to eat that pussy, DL. any guidelines. Right. You know you got to eat that DL.
Goodness gracious.
Goodness. But you know,
if you look at the pandemic, let's be honest, right?
There's some people that
have saliva coming out their
mouth because they know how much money they're going to make.
If you have money, you rich, the white people,
they're making millions and billions
off this pandemic. But it's us
that have the small businesses that are never open again.
That is us that can never pay our mortgage and not be able to, you know,
we'll lose our mortgage and lose our cars and not be able to go to school
because we can't afford it.
So how do we help ourselves?
That's what I want to know.
We got to help our own.
That is the specificity that will help us.
But just saying I'm not doing this to you is a big thing.
You've got to ask them for what a quiet
mouth don't get fed. Now, what you feel that
mouth with is what we're arguing about.
Listen, you're absolutely right.
It's amazing that the very people who are now
essential workers are the very motherfuckers
we were trying to send off. Like, look at the people
who are dying. You're absolutely right.
It's disgraceful when I watch
them point a camera at a thousand kids,
children, who stand in front of Michael Jordan to get Michael Jordan at the mall.
What about the people who open the fucking mall?
What about the people that...
Because we put child-proof caps on medicine just for dumb-ass kids.
But when I watch a white person in the United States walk around with a guy without a mask on,
children do what they're supposed to.
I just don't understand
how, at one point,
you'll arrest people
for not social distancing, but you won't
arrest two white men to slaughter
the black man. All these
are reasonable acts, but to say
unless you do this for me
without a level of specificity is a
nebulous thing. I don't understand that.
We need their ask that we should all
as black and brown people be able to agree.
I agree with that. I think that, you know, what Diddy did
wrong, what he did wrong was he said
a black agenda, but he didn't specify what it
was. If you're going to ring that kind of alarm,
you should have something ready to go right
then and there. That I
agree with. Now, D.L., one thing that I've been saying that I really pay attention to is who is also going to be working with you.
Who's going to be the vice president?
Who else are you appointing to positions of power that I know that I can trust?
So who would you like to see as vice president?
I mean, I think there are any number of people.
But ultimately, it's a political calculation because if you pick the senator and then that seat becomes vulnerable, then you erode some of your power.
Like, so there are – first off, I wouldn't like to see Amy Klobuchar.
I just –
No.
No.
She makes white women go, hey, hey.
Yes.
And people gave Kamala hell for her record as a prosecutor.
Go look at Klobuchar's record as a prosecutor.
I think you're absolutely right.
I like Kamala as a, I had my questions with her,
and I actually got a chance to talk to her and have my questions about her.
I think she would be excellent.
I think Elizabeth Warren, despite the fact that I think she would be excellent,
but that does pose a problem of having a vulnerable seat.
I think people are talking about Stacey Abrams.
Now, I don't know her governor. I don't
know what she has done in terms of governance. But the bottom line is, when you're making this
more so than any other vice president, a nominee, a vice presidential selection,
people, it's kind of like a literal cosigner, like kind of like he needs somebody that galvanizes
people. So this is probably the most important vice president to election. I would say that
that is one of the instances
where we see what he thinks
about the people who are supporting him.
And I think the one thing that is readily apparent
in this whole thing, I don't think a woman
should be vice president. I think a woman should be president.
Because if you look at the land by women,
less of them are dying. Their economy
is less than shambled. And I think it's ultimately
time to dispel the
notion, even the cities
that women run, they're
people. Because I think there's a
modicum of empathy and common
sense that men have ceded
that women have not. And I think
whoever he picks as
vice president needs to be fully capable
and ready to be president day one.
That's right. Joe Biden might die at any moment. Yeah. Vice president needs to be fully capable and ready to be president day one. If something happens.
That's right.
The Joe Biden might die at any moment.
Yeah.
It's possible.
Every one of the people running for president looks like they are under the
more than none of them should be outside.
None of them.
Especially,
especially with the coronavirus outbreak.
They keep talking about it.
It kills elderly people.
Well,
what are y'all?
Oh my God.
In the Congress, I'm going to go
back to where you better stay your old ass home.
Alright, well, don't move. We got more with D.L.
Hughley. When we come back, 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.
We're still kicking it with D.L. Hughley.
Now, D.L., have you seen the Jordan documentary, Last Dance?
And how do you think about the fact that he is around his team?
And are you like that around your team?
I think that his single-mindedness was something that we all,
and ultimately, I think that everybody embodies some of that.
But I think that Michael Jordan is Michael Jordan primarily because of his great work ethic.
But I don't think he would have been beloved in the social media era.
Like when we know everything about you, we know what you did, we know what you said.
Part of any measure of greatness is what you're up against.
And what he was up against was not the backdrop of social media.
So I think what he did
in terms of his single-mindedness,
but I thought what he did
to Scottie Pippen
was bullsh**.
If we didn't know,
like,
then if you do
your teammate
your supposed ace like that,
where you're not supportive of him,
people would have
a different affirmation of that.
They'd be like,
hey, nigga,
you out.
That's out of pocket.
So I think he was
a great athlete,
and I think that you have to have,
he was a great athlete, a less desirable human being to me.
I thought he was –
I didn't like how they was tiptoeing around race on the episode
when they was talking about why they was attacking Michael Jordan.
Like, y'all know good or what, there wasn't care about no gambling.
That was a powerful black man.
That's what they do to you.
They tear you down.
Right.
But you can't expect people to involve that when that's never been your conversation, man.
Like, he also wants the Republicans by a tennis shoe.
If you want somebody to get your back, you got to get theirs sometime, too.
You got to be involved in the struggles that matter to other people so they don't be involved in your struggles.
You can't just, everything can't be about you.
And I think that that's what's going on.
But I'll tell you what, I've been watching spectacular documentaries.
Spectacular.
John Coltrane and Lee Morgan.
There's some dope things.
And I watched Tiger King.
Let me tell you something.
When I learned from that, if you pet a tiger long enough, eventually you're going to want to f*** a dude.
That's what I was like.
What?
I don't understand that.
That's all you got from that?
I threw out my Detroit Tigers hat.
Are you f***ing with me?
Oh, man, DL, you are crazy, man.
You know what I was going to say to you, DL?
I was going to say, what are you going to do without stand-up for the next few months?
How are you going to stay sharp?
Well, you know, I get to do the radio every day.
But this shit literally writes itself.
I was watching Jerome Adams, who was another, that whole Surgeon General dude.
Because the one thing that I hate is every time something happens, even though
the international pandemic
is raging, every time
something happens to black people, it's always our
fault. Like, it's our fault.
Like, everybody else is dying, but you
are f***ing yourself.
When that dude said he started drinking and smoking and alcohol,
I'm like, well, f***, you can't make me
stay home and tell me I can't drink and
smoke and do drugs.
But it's been hard, too. But I'm learning. well, you can't make me stay home and tell me I can't drink and smoke and do drugs. But it's been hard, too.
But I'm learning.
Look, I baked cookies last night.
You did?
Regular cookies or weed cookies?
I've been cooking for my old lady.
Yeah, for sure.
So when is the last time you've been home for this long of a period of time, D.L.?
Never.
I just tell her that last night.
I'm like, I'm waking up with the same woman. What kind
of thing is this? Who does this? Stop it. Stop it.
Stop it. You better stop. You'll get your ass in trouble.
I don't know why you
shut up, suck it out of the phone.
D.L., cut it out.
We don't do that. Black men don't cheat. Come on
now. Stop now.
I know she's
sick of you, D.L.
When they open this world back up,
how long is it going to take you to go out
and really start doing these shows again?
Hey, man, listen, the last show I did
was three days before they closed.
I was in Texas, in San Antonio,
three days before it closed down.
I think ultimately it ain't going to be
entertainers do what they do,
and I think that even when they open it up,
there's a certain, like, you dig your gig
and you want to be saved, but at a certain, like, you dig your gig and you want to be saved.
But at a certain point, you itch to be what you were.
And so it'll be more a question of when people feel comfortable coming out.
But for me, this is what I've been.
Pandemic or not, this is who I am.
And so I just, I can't wait to be on stage and say the things that I say and do the things I do.
But I want more than anything else for people to feel a sense of safety.
I think everybody wants normalcy.
I think it's something that's a bridge too far.
I don't know that we'll ever have that again because we have a memory of what things were like.
But I think a level of safety where people feel more secure.
And I think that despite political differences,
there are people who actually seem to care about,
like your governor seems to give a ****.
He seems to give a ****.
Yeah, he does.
I think our governor seems to give a ****.
I think Whitmer and Michigan seems to care.
So at least having a caring, sober, thoughtful group of leaders,
I think will contribute to people feeling safer.
And then that contributes to getting back to a similar sort of life we recognize.
She might be vice president, too, Governor Whitmer.
That's what I'm hearing.
She let a redneck call the governor.
She on Flint.
She's up.
I got that.
One more thing before we go, D.
Yesterday, everybody jumped on Tyra Banks,
all that old shit she said on America's Next Top Model.
To me, that is the dumbest shit in the world.
And the reason I say that, it's like I was speeding on a highway.
The speed limit used to be 70.
Now it's 55.
But you're sending me speeding tickets from 20 years ago.
When the speed limit was 70, I was doing goddamn 70. It's actually
what they did with Eddie Murphy's Raw. That s*** was
funny, and then we gave
things by our prism of today.
And if we're gonna do that, let's go
all the way back. Let's not just do things like that,
but I think you can't, like
I said, prisoner of now bulls***. I think
we are. It's the whole thing
I was just speaking of. It's collective.
Be who the f*** you are. Be how you feel.
Obviously, there are going to be consequences,
but
this whole notion that we all have to think
alike and we all have to think things are
wrong. I remember
when Snoop said what he said about
Gayle King. I didn't
think he was calling everybody names.
I didn't think it was everybody. I thought it was her, but
there are people who hear that and go,
I feel bad. Well, my f***er wasn't talking to you.
Like,
why do I have to,
like, it's when black people say,
when a black dude, it makes us all look bad.
No, it makes that n***a look bad.
I don't know.
But, you know, but there is
also nothing wrong for taking accountability.
If you feel, you might feel like, you look at it from somebody else's point of view and feel like, you know what, I get it.
Because sometimes that does happen too.
Empathy is different than taking it on as a martyr.
Empathy is different.
Like, everybody loved Jesus.
Wasn't nobody holding with that cross.
Ain't nobody did that.
That's right.
So, empathy is different.
But now we have this whole mindset where we don't have, and it's a false one because if you had told me and I feel like you called me a name,
I don't then commensurately feel like you owe me money when you make money off of your creativity.
So I just think individuals are individuals and people say things that are out of line and casting people off and judging them for what they've said in one moment.
Even with Puff said, as angry as it may be, he's done a lot of great shit too.
So it's not that.
But I think you've got to be who you are.
And that's why I dig this space.
As dangerous and precarious as this is, I love this part.
Like I was telling my wife, I said, I am nervous,
but I feel more comfortable in a situation like this than I,
than I almost ever had.
Absolutely.
Well, definitely.
Thank you for checking in.
We appreciate it.
And if we will, if we learned one thing from you today,
we learn, get rid of all your Detroit tiger gear and hats and everything.
That's, that's one thing.
Don't pet no goddamn tigers, bro.
It's a bumperster. I'm telling you the same thing. Don't pet no goddamn tigers, bro. Let me tell you something. It's a bumper shirt.
Pet a tiger, f***ing dude.
I'm telling you, it's the same thing.
I can't.
See, I can't.
You're going too far.
Hey, no.
He got a point, though.
Because after Mike Tyson, remember when Mike Tyson had that white tiger?
Shortly after that, he made that statement.
He said, I'll f*** you till you love me.
He told us he said that to another man.
There you go.
I think we should leave right there. Yeah. Well, Mike Tyson, he said, I'll f*** you till you love me. He told us he said that to another man. There you go. I think we should leave right there.
Yeah. Well, Mike Tyson,
he said it. That's a symbiotic relationship.
And D, I'll make
sure you give our love to Jasmine and shout out
to your hairline, by the way. Your hairline is
amazing. Yeah, you see it.
Tell Charlamagne to take his hat off.
Tell Charlamagne to take his hat off. I'll take mine off.
Charlamagne, take your hat off, bro.
Take your hat off, Charlamagne.
I don't follow the crowd.
Neither does your hair.
Neither does your hair, Lauren. All right.
It's the Breakfast Club.
You're horrible motherfuckers.
It's D.L. Hughley.
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
It's time for Donkey of the day donkeys of the day
i'm a democrat so being donkey of the day is a little bit of a mixed question so like a donkey
now i've been called a lot in my 23 years but donkey of the day is a new one donkey of the day
goes to
nfl commissioner roger goodell now if you look around the world you have a bunch of white people
who are going out of their way to prove that they love black people and not just black culture
all right everybody wants to have conversations about ridding the world of systemic racism
everyone wants to discuss creating a new system because we all know the system of white supremacy does not work for everybody look i'm on record saying um you know ain't no good gonna come to
america until they do right by black people period poo god has given america the opportunity
to right his wrongs god has given america the opportunity to reverse his bad karma so i'm not
upset at the white folks and white companies. I see tweeting and posting memes, doing videos like Roger Goodell did
because Roger Goodell has the right idea
because one of the first ways to reverse bad karma
is to write a letter or call those who you have wronged in the past.
So that's a good first step for Roger.
Okay, I'm going to let you hear what Roger had to say
and then I'm going to use Roger
Goodell as a moment to teach because these white folks at these corporations need teaching.
Let's hear it.
We, the National Football League, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of Black
people.
We, the National Football League, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players
earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest.
We, the National Football League, believe black lives matter.
I personally protest with you and want to be part of the much needed change in this country.
Without black players, there would be no National Football League. And the protests around the country are emblematic of the centuries of silence,
inequality, and oppression of black players, coaches, fans, and staff.
We are listening.
I am listening.
And I will be reaching out to players who have raised their voices
and others on how we can improve and go forward for a better
and more united NFL family? Well, the first player he has to reach out to is Colin Kaepernick.
If he doesn't do that, it's a half-assed apology. You have to personally apologize to Colin
Kaepernick. You also have to admit that he was blackballed. And if it wasn't a strategic,
intentional blackball, when they noticed no owners were attempting to sign him, nobody at the top intervene to say that's wrong.
Make sure he plays.
OK, I got a question for the NFL.
How many black people on the board of directors of the NFL?
There's only one black GM in the NFL.
The NFL got three black coaches, zero black owners, but players make up over 70 percent of the league, 70 percent of the league, but zero percent of the NFL. The NFL got three black coaches, zero black owners, but players make up over 70% of the
league. 70% of the league, but 0% of the ownership. If you want to dismantle white supremacy, you want
to change systemic racism, how about dismantle that good old boy mentality in the NFL, Roger
Goodell? Not to mention, I don't like people getting no light bulb moments in the NFL because
Colin Kaepernick rarely talks, but he talked at the beginning of this peaceful protest a few years ago
and he told you exactly why he was protesting.
So no way Roger Goodell or anyone else in the NFL could have missed that.
Let's hear what Colin had to say for the millionth time
because I finally think y'all are listening.
I mean, ultimately it's to bring awareness and make people, you know,
realize what's really going on in this country.
There are a lot of things that are going on that are unjust,
people aren't being held accountable for,
and that's something that needs to change.
That's something that this country stands for freedom, liberty, justice for all,
and it's not happening for all right now.
When there's significant change,
and I feel like that flag represents what it's supposed to represent,
and this country is representing people the way that it's supposed to, I'll stand. There's a lot of things that need to
change. One specifically is police brutality. There's people being murdered unjustly and not
being held accountable. You know, I have great respect for men and women that have fought for
this country. I have family, I have friends that have gone and fought for this country
and they fight for freedom. They fight for the people. They fight for liberty and justice for everyone. And that's not happening.
Simple, simple. And for the record, if you wonder why black people have a problem with patriotism,
it's because we know the creeds in America don't fully relate to us. Freedom, justice, equality.
That's not fully for black people. Liberty and justice for all. Nope. It's liberty and justice
for white folks. We know that. So how can you expect us to feel patriotic when this country has shown us time and time again that the rules for white America don't apply to black America? But I'm not here to talk about that supremacy, that you want to abolish systemic racism, well, then pop the hood.
Let's see what's in this engine, because if there's no black parts underneath that engine making that cargo, then you are a liar.
OK, if you love if your love for blackness isn't reflected in your place of business, then all these corporations are full of it. Okay. Your
corporation is full of it. If your love of so-called blackness isn't reflected in your
place of business. All right. Don't scream black lives matter. If you don't have a lot of black
hires, okay. Using the hashtag black lives matter is great, but what type of black economic
opportunities are you providing for black people? We don't need, I love black people, tweets and
memes and videos.
Those are great.
They make us feel good.
But what about things that make us actually good?
Okay?
I love seeing massive donations.
I want to see more massive donations from these corporations with no strings attached.
All right?
I'm about all that from these corporations.
But if you have a corporation and you know damn well
your business doesn't reflect the Black Lives Matter stuff you're preaching,
then shut the F up forever.
Okay, don't let Black Lives Matter turn to Black Lives Marketing for some of these corporations,
because that's all it is.
This is marketing and promo for so many of these companies.
But we're not going to let y'all tweet and just walk away.
We got questions.
How many black people work at your place of business?
How many black people have senior roles in your company?
How many black people on your board? what does your black representation look like i
personally feel like if black people make up 13 of the population we should have 13 representation
in all industries via equity ownership involvement do you have black people at your company who are
outperforming the white people but the white people still make more money than the black
people why is that?
Until that changes in these corporations,
then guess what?
Corporations, you are still practicing systemic racism.
Period.
Poo.
Please give these corporations and Roger Goodell
the biggest hee-haw.
You can't even use the term unconscious bias no more.
You can't use that term anymore because you are awake.
You are conscious.
You are very aware of what's happening out here in these streets.
And you want to change things?
Simply look at your highest.
Simple as that.
White America.
All right.
Well, thank you for that donkey today.
Oh, yes, ma'am.
Thank you, brother.
Yes, ma'am.
Thank you, brother.
What is that? What is that? I'm just trying to confuse you. that donkey today. Oh, yes, ma'am. Thank you, brother. Yes, ma'am. Thank you, brother. What is that?
What is that?
Just trying to confuse you.
That's all.
You're doing a good job.
All right.
We got more coming up next.
We're The Breakfast Club.
The Breakfast Club.
Come on.
Need relationship advice?
Need personal advice?
Just need real advice.
Call up now for Ask Ye.
Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Ye.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, this is Cookie.
Cookie!
Cookie from out of Florida, Broward County.
I know you talking about us, Charlamagne.
I don't know what you're talking about.
What's up, Cookie?
All right, Cookie, what's good?
What's your question for Yeezy?
Okay, my question is, me and my husband, we rap.
Like, we spit bars.
Like, we really got bars, man.
But we up there in age.
We've been spitting for a long time.
We 32.
And we just wondering if we should keep trying.
Are you any good?
You want to hear me?
Yeah, go ahead. Let's hear it. Let's hear good? You want to hear me? I got one.
Yeah, go ahead.
Let's hear it.
Let's hear something, Cookie.
All right, you can hear it.
C-double-O-K-E.
Now, you don't know me.
Yeah, you may see me, but you can never beat me.
And you can never beat me in a hip-hop battle.
Soon as you see me, fool, better skedaddle.
Survive with a paddle.
I'll swim through the river.
Meaning I can make it through whatever life the ****.
I make it quick, but every time I speak rhymes,
that's your man on my hinds
Cookie Black is a dime
Yo, I love the comedy rap, yo
You really made me laugh
The comedy rap is dope
This is Ask Yee
Yee, what do you think?
So, Cookie, a couple things here
Have you made any type of progress
With your career as a rapper?
I've performed a couple places I mean Have you made any type of progress with your career as a rapper? I performed a couple places.
I mean, I performed at the Hard Rock a while ago.
It was big.
Well, at the time I was working there, but we did like an employee talent show,
and I won both times.
I won both times, though.
I performed at a few places, you know, locally and stuff like that.
Now, keep it real, Cookie.
Have you been going really, really hard to pursue your dream?
Been trying, yes.
You know, get knocked down a couple times.
You know, we went to an event in Orlando, and it was like, oh, you know,
people not really check for older rappers right now.
I'm like, yo, but I've been doing this for so long,
and it just so happened that some opportunities are coming out right now, I'm like, yo, but I've been doing this for so long and it just so happened that some opportunities are coming out
right now.
You know, where you can, you know, this artist
showcase and this artist showcase
and um...
Have you been recording music in the studio
anywhere though? Yes, you can
go on the Instagram at
GruEntertainmentLLC. Man, just tell her
she sucks and to get a job here.
I just want to say, I don't think that being in your 30s is a reason to not pursue your career as far as being an artist.
If you're really great at it and if you go really hard at it.
You know what I'm saying?
I think sometimes people want things to happen and they do a showcase here and there, but they're not going super hard.
Because people who really want to be in this industry have to really live, breathe, eat, sleep it, like do everything they can to make it happen. So that's why I was asking you,
are you doing everything that you can? Have you been going really hard or is this something that
you've been doing kind of, you know, here and there, but not really pursuing? Yeah, I've been
trying to go hard. I really have been trying to, of course, you know, with my age, you know, I
eventually had children and stuff like that.
But I still, I think I've still got bars.
I'm still ready to put in the work.
You don't.
Nah, I don't suck, man.
You do.
Learn to trade.
You know what I'm saying?
Do you have a job?
Yeah, I got a job.
There you go.
Get another one.
Work, baby.
I just don't want you to use age as an excuse.
We know an artist right now that's putting out his first ever album.
He's in his 40s. You know what I'm saying? So I don't want you to use age as an excuse. We know an artist right now that's putting out his first ever album. He's in his 40s.
You know what I'm saying?
So I don't think that's ever.
He's good.
Exactly.
Steven, the white man in the room said, but he's good.
Because you're talking about Jay Electronica.
He's good.
So what I'm saying is.
Hold on.
So you're saying I'm not good?
Oh, my God.
That's what you've been saying for the last seven minutes.
I'm clocking out of this conversation.
All right.
Well, listen.
Give everybody your Instagram.
Everybody is going to weigh in and go and look at your music that you have posted
and let you know what they think.
This is a great opportunity for you to get some feedback.
That's right.
Give them your Instagram so people can go tell you the truth.
Oh, man, I'm hurt, Charlamagne.
What is it?
Groot Entertainment.
G-R-E-W Entertainment, LLC, man.
I love you, though.
I love y'all.
I listen to you every morning.
I'm hurt right now, though, Charlamagne, but it's okay. Well, I don't think you can judge it just based off of that. I love you, though. I love y'all. I listen to you every morning. I'm hurt right now, though,
Charlamagne, but it's okay. Well, I don't think you can judge it
just based off of that. Yeah, Charlamagne didn't hear
no music. He hasn't heard no music.
He just heard... So what'd you think of that freestyle you just
heard from her, Andy? What'd you think of what
you just heard from her? I was listening.
I was listening.
Y'all are so
full of s***.
I was listening. Y'all are so full of s***. Why? I wasn't listening.
Y'all are so full of s***.
And that's why she's going to waste her time for the next three, four years trying to write.
She could have just had an off day.
Okay, sure.
Cookie the Black Widow.
All right.
Okay.
Okay, let's keep it going.
Ask Yee.
800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice.
Hit us up now.
It's The Breakfast Local Morning.
Get some real advice with Angela Yee.
It's Ask Yee.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Portia.
I'm calling from Charleston, South Carolina.
Hey, Portia.
843.
What's your question for Yee?
Okay, so I have a question.
Basically, I've been dealing with some sexual harassment at my job with my supervisor.
So I took the appropriate steps, went to HR, even talked to a lawyer about the situation.
But it seems like they're not trying to let this manager go.
So I was like, what's the next step?
What should I do from this point on?
Should I just find another job? Should I keep pushing the issue? Because I feel like, what's the next step? What should I do from this point on? Should I just find another job?
Should I keep pushing the issue?
Because I feel like he's retaliating.
You feel like he's
retaliating, you said?
Yes. Like, give me some examples.
Basically,
like, he tried to put me on third shift
without telling me, which was
one thing. Another thing,
he nitpicks at little things
that he claimed I'm doing wrong
because I'm an industrial technician,
so I work through maintenance department.
Seeing that I'm one of the girls with a bunch of guys,
he just kind of nitpicks at me for little things
that I feel like it's not even serious to nitpick over
because he never did before until I went to HR about him.
Okay.
So here's a couple of things.
First of all, you said that you've complained, right?
Yes, I went to HR twice.
And so their response is what?
We're going to work on it.
We're going to work on him.
We're going to try to figure out how we're going to make you comfortable by being here because we know you're not.
But that's pretty much it.
And they're dragging their feet about letting them go or, you know, what are they going to do with the supervisor?
I had proof that he did that.
Right.
Text message and everything.
So you have all of this in writing and you've emailed them and they've responded via email.
I highly recommend you get yourself a lawyer.
That's when they take things seriously.
Okay.
And you should not ever have to work under those circumstances.
You should feel safe and protected at work.
If you go to HR with a complaint and evidence that somebody is doing this to you
and making you feel this way at work and you're uncomfortable
and you're feeling belittled,
then you need to make sure that you take those matters into your own hand
because you have the power to do that.
Okay.
Well, I'll probably just go back to the attorney I was talking to.
She told me that the only way she can take my case is if the job was to fire me
or there was no changes moving forward.
So because there are no changes, I'm just going to go back to her.
Yeah, absolutely.
And it sounds like you have a legitimate case.
You have these text messages.
Plus, I think you have to keep a record of what's been happening at work since you've been complaining to HR and all the things that he's been, every detail that you can get and anything that you can get in writing as evidence, you should try to get.
Okay.
And make sure you send those emails.
Make sure you show what their responses are.
Present all of those to a lawyer.
You definitely have a case.
And I think this is great because you don't want this to happen to somebody else. So it's great
that you spoke up. You've done what you're supposed
to do on your part. They haven't done what they're
supposed to do on their behalf. So now it's time to
move it to the next level.
You ain't got none of your cousins
that can come box them anymore?
I mean, I do got cousins who want to
come box them up now, but listen,
it's like, I don't, this is a white
man, so I don't want white people
to get knocked out for that now.
Man,
I ain't,
I ain't care if you're a white man now.
That man ain't got no business
trying to feel on your bunkie
at work now.
Yeah,
he be trying,
talking about,
you want to touch my tattoo
and all kind of stuff.
Kway!
He want to touch the tattoo.
Well,

you are not getting,
none of your family's
locked up over this.
Well,
I need your cousin

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning, Giovanna.
Uh-oh, what's the matter, Giovanna?
Why you sound like you're whispering?
I'm whispering because my college student is home.
Okay, okay.
And I don't want him to hear my question.
Oh, boy, mommy freaky.
All right, let's go.
Yeah, DJ and the happy anniversary.
My husband and I will be celebrating 24 years of summer too.
Wow.
In our 20s.
Congrats to that.
Yeah, same to you.
Same to you.
So, my question is, I don't know how you deal with all those kids,
but what to do now that these kids are home when you're trying to get freaky with your husband?
Do you have any idea do you have any...
Do you know why you sustain these long-term marriages?
Because y'all do all kinds of crazy stuff, you know, but we're trying to figure it out.
How many kids?
Just one, just one, but...
Okay, and he's home from college.
He's graduated last year, thank goodness, but, you know, with everything going on, his grad plans didn't work out.
He was supposed to relocate to California.
He's home with us.
We have a condo and can't get down the way we usually get down, you know?
So is he ever going outside?
Is there someplace like an outdoor space?
Not right now.
And we, you know, normally we'll go to parks, but parks have been closed.
We don't want to get arrested because he's essential.
I own a catering business kind of, you know, in the public eye.
I don't want to be, you know, known for anything scandalous, but of course.
Y'all be going to the parks, getting freaky.
I like this.
No, no, no.
She said.
We have.
Hold on. Yes, they do. Not now. freaky. I like this. No, no, no. She said. We have. Hold on.
Yes, they do.
Not now.
Not now.
Not during this. Not now, of course.
Everything is shut down.
We try to be safe.
As I said, my husband is essential.
I own a catering business.
Shout out to the small business owners.
I fed the front line.
Still doing my.
What's the name of your catering business?
Let's plug that, too, while we're on here.
Oh, thank you.
Impa Mama Signature Recipes.
Hmm.
I'm in Cliffside Park, but I work out of a commercial kitchen in Englewood.
So Englewood Hospital, holy name, T-Neck, feed the front line.
We're still doing more.
Now, Giovanna, let me ask you this.
Doesn't your son have to go to sleep at some point?
Now that he's home, not really.
I mean, come on.
You know these older kids.
They're on FaceTime all hours of the night.
You know, and we're not quiet.
You know what?
You know what I think is fun?
You need to have sex quietly.
Quietly?
Yes, and that actually is really fun, but it doesn't normally happen,
but it's actually very exciting when you know people might.
My husband's louder than me, actually.
Wow, Mama, you're putting in that work.
You're going to have to cover his mouth
while you're doing it, but it's actually something really fun
about trying to
be quiet while you have sex. And that
might just be something y'all are going to have to do.
Just be careful, quiet. It is exciting.
We're going to try.
Mama, Mama, Mama,
can I be honest with you?
I have ideas, especially from DJ. What do be honest with you? I need some ideas,
especially from DJ.
What do you do
with all those kids?
We live in a condo.
Well, first of all,
first of all,
the kids go to sleep.
The kids go to sleep
and then the older kids...
The older one, exactly.
But the older...
He knows what's going on.
You don't think he having sex?
She don't want him to hear that.
Nobody want to hear
their parents having sex.
Thank you, Angela.
The kids don't want to hear that.
Put a lock on that door
and you and your hubby
go in.
He's not going to walk in. He's not walking in. Don't worry about it. He'll put his headphones on and you and your hubby go in.
He's not walking in.
Don't worry about it.
He'll put his headphones on
and he'll be in this video game.
Let me tell you what else you can do.
Let me tell you what else you can do
because you said the headboard.
I'm glad you said that.
Put a sheet on the floor
and have sex quietly on the floor.
We have carpet under the floor
under our bed.
All right.
Well, listen.
Put a sheet on the floor.
Put on some music.
Put the TV on, whatever you got to do.
Mama, don't even worry about your son.
You know, my daughter came into me.
She came into my room the other morning and was like,
guys, you know I don't go to sleep at 12 o'clock, right?
You know I hear everything that was going on.
And you know what I said?
I said, well, you know how you got here, right?
And then she just walked out.
It is what it is.
My daughter's 18.
Your son, as he graduated college, he got to be in his 20s.
He understands.
But listen, I just want to say, you just need to make a fun game out of it.
Put that sheet on the floor.
Tell him, all right, we got to be quiet.
Turn on some music kind of low and just have sex slowly and quietly.
He's a grown-ass boy, mama.
He's in your house. He's
old enough now. You and hubby
get freaky.
He doesn't want to see his mother's face.
His father come out smiling, but he doesn't
want to see me come down and make his
avocado toast after I didn't
serve him. Avocado toast.
I hope you would wash your hands at least.
Yeah, all kind of.
Oh my God. Washing my hands and everything, but okay.
We'll try the sheet on the floor.
Thank you.
Oh, Mama, get your freaky ass on.
Who cares?
Hey, Emmy, this is Ask Yee.
She wanted advice, and my advice is have some fun with it.
It's a different time.
It's a different era.
She don't want her son to hear, but that sheet on the floor
and have fun trying to be quiet.
Quarantine sex, maintaining the long-term
marriages. You gotta do what you gotta do.
Mama, I haven't worked out the best thing yet.
And every time he makes a little noise
with his mouth and he starts getting too loud, just cover his
mouth and be like, hey, you gotta be quiet.
Mama, nah. And let me ask you a question.
When you find out what to do with the bed, help me out
with the bed, because I haven't figured that out yet. My bed
be squeaking. We haven't figured that out, man. We haven't figured
we've used WD-40.
We got the purple
mattress and everything
and it's still.
It's still mine too.
The mattress.
What the hell
is a purple mattress?
It's a label.
It's a type of mattress.
Do you have an air mattress?
No, we don't have,
no, please.
We bought some air mattress.
We tried that back in the 90s.
Who came up with that?
She tried to play you.
Angelique just tried
to play you, mom.
She's going to tell you
she got an air mattress.
You're a grown ass woman trying to play you like youique just tried to play you, mom. She's going to tell you she's got an air mattress. You're a grown-ass woman.
I'm trying to play you like you're some little young cop with an air mattress.
Wow.
I have a...
Wow.
You're disrespectful.
No, no, no.
I have a...
Wow.
I actually have an air mattress as a spare mattress in my house in case I have company.
And I'm like, okay, here's an air mattress.
So sometimes people come... You can hold something? You can blow up. You here's an air mattress. So sometimes people come and then they go.
You can blow up. You can use the air mattress.
In the 80s, no.
I don't know if that's going to work.
And it's actually, it's a pillow top air mattress
and it's very nice.
It's late automatically.
Yeah, I have that for guests, but I don't think that's going to work.
Mama, go in.
Don't worry about him.
Okay, I'm going to take your advice.
Go in.
He knows.
He understands.
I know you know, DJ and V.
Long-term marriage, you got to do what you got to do.
That's right.
Sometimes you got to stick.
That's right.
Or stick your face out the window.
Let her be hidden from the back.
That way, if you yell, it's outside.
You go in.
You get freaky.
Then my neighbors.
I've already had notices under my door from my neighbors.
That's the last thing I need is for them to see my
hanging out the window now too.
Why your so long and hanging out the window?
Not long, but
you know, to stick my face out the window.
That's going to come next.
Oh my gosh. Well, have fun with it. Get on that floor and have some next. Oh my gosh.
We'll have fun with it.
Get on that floor
and have some fun.
Thank you.
Good luck, mama.
And sustain these
long-term marriages.
We out here doing it too.
There you go.
Black love.
Black love.
Black love.
Don't do your catering
straight from doing
what you do with your husband.
Just make sure you wash
your hands, shower.
We don't want any extra DNA.
That food will have
more love in it, boy. All right. Thank you, mama hands, shower. We don't want any extra DNA. That food will have more love in it, boy.
Alright, thank you, mama.
That ain't love.
That ain't cream, either.
Alright, we got more coming up next.
We're The Breakfast Club.
Good morning, everybody. It's DJ
Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we were talking
about Eva. She was on Wendy just joined us, we are talking about Eva.
She was on Wendy Williams' show,
and she talked about her child and changing her child's last name.
Let's hear it.
Sterling, like everybody else.
We legally changed her name this past year.
It was, we went through a lot to do it, but.
How much more before the actual process is done?
Well, the name change is illegal,
so now we have to go through the adoption process,
and, I mean, he's making it a little bit easier for us acting crazy in the public. Well, I guess life
Jennings seen that and he didn't like that too much. Are you? He said, I think this is so whack
changing your daughter's last name from her father's to somebody else's, especially when the
father tries to see her. The daughter don't have anything to do with their beef. And what kind of
man allows that ish piss me off. So we're asking 805851051,
is it acceptable to change your child's last name?
What do you think, Charlamagne?
I mean, I got to know the context of the situation.
You know what I'm saying?
If you're doing it just out of spite,
just because you don't like your baby daddy
because he don't want to be with you and you got a new man now,
that's whack.
But I mean, if you got a deadbeat daddy.
What about if it's a deadbeat daddy, the dad's not around,
the dad is not taking care of the child?
I have no problem with that whatsoever.
By the way, the son of the daughter shouldn't want to wear the name of a deadbeat.
Yeah, I don't know either situation, but with Kevin McCall,
we all know Kevin McCall has problems mentally,
but it does seem like he is trying to take care of his daughter.
It seems like he goes to court.
I just don't know. I don't know if he's abusive. I don't know. You know what I mean?
But in a situation, if there is a deadbeat dad and I'm taking it away from that situation,
if the dad is not in the child's life and he's not even helping no way whatsoever, no,
I say change that name immediately. What do you think? Well, legally, if a woman wants to change
her children's last names, she either has to get consent from the biological father.
And if he doesn't give consent, he can object to it.
And then she has to get a petition and then go to court.
And he can show up to court and say he doesn't want that to happen.
And then the judge has to decide.
So that's how it goes down legally.
But I do feel like whoever is the father, if the mother chooses to do that and the father is causing issues or he's not in the child's life or not holding up
his responsibilities, then he's not
really your dad. And if the last name is Zimmerman,
you definitely want to change that one. You don't want
to walk around with that last name. Goodness gracious.
Hello, who's this?
Sheila from Jersey.
So what do you think? Is it acceptable to change your child's
last name? No, I don't agree
with that. Okay, go ahead.
No matter how much you don't like
your kid's dad or no matter how crazy he might
act or no matter what he does,
changing the last name is not going to change the DNA.
It's not going to change who the father is.
So you have to get over that. And on top of
that, you're falsifying an
image of somebody that's not true.
That's not her dad. And
if one day it doesn't work out between you two, now
he legally is her dad and that's not really her dad.
You know what I mean?
Like, it's just stupid.
It's petty.
It doesn't make the other person your dad.
They would have to actually adopt the children
so that the kids aren't adopted, even if you're married, right?
No, but I'm talking about, like, the image
that you're portraying to your children.
Now, what if your kids are like,
I want to have the same last name as you and my dad,
you know, the stepfather?
Well, I mean, that's a choice that they have to make
and the two parents should come to a, you know,
to a middle ground with.
That would be their choice.
But if they're not old enough to make those type of decisions,
just saying that because whatever the situation is,
you know, like some kids, they grow up
and they're told this is their dad, this is their dad,
and that's what they think.
What if the biological father is
absent from the children's life?
Me personally,
I don't agree in that. My father was
not in my life either and my
mother still maintained
our last name as his.
I guess that would be up to
the child when they grow up
to decide if they want to do that or not.
Okay.
Thank you, Mama.
I just wouldn't do that.
Okay.
Hello, who's this?
This is Spoon from Dayton, Ohio.
Hey, is it acceptable to change a child's last name?
I think it just really depends on the circumstances.
You know, my daughter, her father is not in her life.
He's never been in her life, which is
fine, but she
still has his last name.
And
I don't tell her bad things
about her dad. She can find out
on her own, just like my mom told me
about my dad.
But I don't think a name
defines a person.
Now, if you have, you know, someone new in your life
and they want to spend the rest of their life with you
and, you know, you and your kids are a package deal.
And if that dad is not, you know, in that child's life,
I don't see a problem with it then.
But, you know, then you got these bitter baby moms.
You know, you got these, you know, baby moms that, you know, couldn't change the man's life with a child.
And, you know, being used as a tactic to attack.
Right. You know, so, you know, a baby is not a pawn, you know.
Right.
So whatever that child's name is, leave that baby alone.
But, you know, I think it is also like we always talk about women taking the husband's name after marriage.
I think for kids, if you live in a house with the mom and the stepfather and that's who you know is your dad and you call him dad, you might want to have the same last name.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning.
This is Nathan out of Orlando, Florida.
Good morning, Angela. Good morning.
What up, bro? Peace, King.
Is it acceptable to change a child's last name, brother?
Nah, nah, brother. I don't think it is,
man. I want to share experience. I'm glad you got
picked up. I actually had an ex-wife who
tried to do that to me, and I would like to use
her government if that's okay with y'all.
Just the first name, please.
Sandra. Okay.
I don't f*** South Carolina.
Try the name. I already know. You got you
a nice country-ass guy.
Yep. Tried to do that to your boy, and I think
that's hateful and disrespectful to a man.
I don't think nobody should do anything
like that. Were you in your child's life?
Are you in your child's life? I am in my child's life.
I love my kids very much. I'm a Virgo.
You already know how we do. That's right. Love our
kids. Okay. Take care of our own.
So what happened? Did she try to do it legally and then you
blocked it?
She talked about trying to do it.
She got a lawyer to try to do it and then I
kind of paid a little bit of money out there and
they dropped the whole thing. Okay.
Alright, well thank you, brother. So what's tomorrow's little story,
guys? Tomorrow's little story is that every
case is different, though, and there's no one size fits all when it comes, brother. So what's the moral of the story, guys? The moral of the story is that every case is different, though,
and there's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to family.
So I think whatever decision you make,
it always has to be in the best interest of your children and not in your own selfish best interest.
The moral of the story is y'all better stop picking who y'all mate with
like y'all rolling dice in the back of a moving goddamn pickup truck, okay?
That's what y'all better stop doing, all right?
Take care of your kids, man.
Exactly.
When you lay down with people, man, you know, think about spending the rest of your life
with this person, because you never know.
This person might give you a disease you can't get rid of.
This person might give you a baby.
Or better yet, you might grow to love this person and be married to them the rest of
your life.
Either way, that's all forever.
Just pick the right forever when you're dealing with these people, okay?
All right, we got more coming up next.
We're The Breakfast Club.
Tell them you got a positive note.
Yes, man, for everybody out there that's, you know, doing a little.
So we all don't have to do a lot.
I just want you to know that act as if what you do makes a difference because it does.
Breakfast Club, bitches!
We all finished or y'all done?
Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag.
This is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
