but I will be in Hampton this whole weekend enjoying my homecoming,

Because, of course, last year we couldn't do it because of the pandemic.
Salute to all the 45-year-olds that's going out there.
They got to do a little scratching.
You know what I'm saying?
A little scratching before they go out there this weekend

20 pounds heavier than the last fight.
I can't wait to see this one.
I mean, you know, this is like
this would be a redemption win.
A big redemption win for Deontay Wilder.
We'll see. It's going to be a good fight.
Alright, what else we got Yeezy?
Man, 18 former
NBA players have been charged
an alleged $4 million health insurance
for. Now this includes Glenn Big Baby Davis. The alleged ring leader Fourteen former NBA players have been charged an alleged $4 million health insurance for another.
This includes Glenn Big Baby Davis.
The alleged ringleader of this whole scheme is Terrence Williams.
He was the 11th overall in the 2009 NBA draft by the then New Jersey Nets.
So these false claims, players received about $2.5 million in fraudulent proceeds.
The ex-players are accused of submitting false reimbursement claims from around 2017 to 2020. That was for medical and dental services. And the alleged ringleader was supposed, he
recruited other NBA players by offering them fabricated invoices. They then use these in
false claims to get payment and they would have to also give him kickbacks. So he got about $230,000 in kickbacks from the players,
according to the indictment.
And he also allegedly assisted three of the ex-players with letters,
fabricated letters of medical necessity to justify some services that these
false invoices were based on.
Some of those players are Charles Watson Jr.
and Antoine Wright as well.
A few of these false claims, this is how they got caught,
were for identical reported procedures on the same day.
Like three players claimed to have had root canals on the same 16th
on April 30th, 2016, crowns on the same 16th on May 11th, 2016.
And just different things like some grammatical errors,
some unusual formatting on these fake invoices and forms.
And one of the players, Gregory Smith,
submitted invoices for Arook Kanell in Beverly Hills,
but he was actually playing basketball in Taiwan at the time.
Yeah, I have no idea what any of this means.
You know, something don't sound right about this.
I know that much.
And it's only because of the dollar amount.
Like $4 million, that's not a lot of money at all for how many
former NBA players, you say?
But the NBA makes
$4 billion a year.
That's what I'm saying.
How many NBA players you said, G?
15, 18? 18.
18. And these are former NBA players.
Antoine Wright is one of them.
Sebastian Telfair. Darius Miles.
Eddie Robinson. I know Sebastian Telfair. Darius Miles. Eddie Robinson.
I didn't know Sebastian Telfair.
I thought Sebastian Telfair, I didn't know he was involved in that.
Yeah, he was involved with it too.
See, you know, I'll be honest with you.
Yeah, what they did was wrong.
A lot of those players weren't making huge, huge contracts.
Some of them were.
But if the NBA is making $4 billion a year,
I just honestly say you slap them on the wrist.
You keep it inside and you take care of it inside.
Wait a minute now.
This don't have nothing to do with the NBA
other than them being
NBA players though. It's not like
they were fraud in the NBA.
These benefit plans come from
the National Basketball Players Association
too, by the way, and the NBA.
So that is supporting the players
because that's benefit plans.
Okay, that makes sense.
I mean, these are false claims.
And then you know how they have their own union, the Players Association.
So that is to make sure that these players are taken care of.
And you can't give false work that was never done and submit reimbursement claims and get that money.
Now, some of them have been instructed to pay that money back
and have done that.
By the way, a few of these players did repay the proceeds they received
according to the indictment, but some others did not.
Yeah, because $4 million does not seem like a lot of money
because a lot of those guys you named got some –
Yeah, to the NBA.
Those guys got some nice contracts.
Yeah, I mean, I just think the NBA makes $4 billion a year.
I know those guys effed up, but allow them to pay it back.
Don't lock them up.
Don't put them in jail.
That's how I feel.
Like, the NBA makes billions of dollars a year.
These guys made a mistake.
They effed up.
They tried to do some slickish.
Make them pay their money back and keep them moving.
Pop them on the wrist, in my opinion.
Well, you're not the law, sir.
We'll see what happens. I mean, we didn't say
for sure that they're going to jail, but
this is a health insurance fraud scheme.
I thought like 15 of them got arrested.
Yeah, but I don't know.
This is all alleged right now,
so we don't know what they'll be sentenced
to. They might just be reimbursed.
Who knows? Something don't sound
right about it, though. Just the fact that it's $4 million.
I feel like
with all those NBA players, I feel like it would have been a lot
more money, but who knows?
If this is even what happened. It could be
just a mistake, right?
You don't think so?
I mean, I don't know about
that.
Can't get a root canal in LA while you're playing basketball
in Taiwan. Hey, man. Hey, my assistant messed it up. No. Can't get a root canal in L.A. while you're playing basketball in Taiwan. Hey, man.
Hey, my assistant messed it up.

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's 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 Kaperburg.
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 still have the off-road portion to go.

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.

We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, this is Chantel. Hey, Chantel, get it off your chest, mama. Peace, Chantel. I want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Chantel.

I want to know, did Trav got his own separate line?
Because I've been calling up there for a long time.
And this is my first time getting through, but he gets through every single day.
Well, Trav comes through the back door.
Oh, it makes sense.
It's your envy.
No, that's envy.
It's envy's back door.
It's envy's back line.
It's Charlotte's back door.
Oh, my God, Tyler, I just love you so much.
I love you more.
What part of South Carolina are you calling from?
803 in this day right now.
The Metro.
Yes, we in here.
You have a good one. Hello, who's
this? Yo, hello.
Yo, get it off your chest. Yo, Envy, check
me out, man. I'm listening
to you talking about these dudes in the
NBA and they
should get a slap on the wrist, whatever.
Yo, that's crap, man.
Check, yo, these boys
were afforded a lifestyle in the NBA
that some people would never obtain.
They had money that some people would never obtain.
If they committed a crime, there should be no sympathy.
They need to pay the price.
I just don't like to see my people in jail,
and especially with the NBA making $4 billion a year.
I get that part of it.
I really do.
I really do.
I don't
I don't want to see nobody go down like that but come on man the the money them boys was making in
the league damn if they blew it or not that was on them life was about choices and the choices you
make define who you become they made the choice to do that if they made the choice to do that
let them go to jail.
If that was a regular person on the street that committed that crime,
they'd be trying to send them in jail for 20 years.
And you're not wrong, my brother, but due process.
We don't know if these brothers are guilty or not.
Come on.
Due process.
That's right.
My problem was when he was saying, like, a slap on the wrist.
No way.
Absolutely not.
If they're guilty, they should pay a price.
Just like the little kid that goes out there and robs somebody,
he pays a price, they should pay a price.
Everybody got to deal with the consequences of their choices.
You're not wrong.
I just feel like the NBA makes $4 billion a year,
and a lot of times they exploit these players with everything that they do.
They make so much money, a lot of these players don't make a fraction
of what the NBA actually makes.
Bro, that's cap.
Like, the NBA players get paid, bro.
Some of them do.
You think all those players on there got millions and millions of contracts?
A lot of them do.
Yes, man, NBA players get paid, bro.
There's guys out there that got...
I was just saying that the other day.
I was like, you know what you had to do to get $100 million in the NBA back in the day?
Nowadays, you got people that's like the third, fourth best person on the team getting $100 million.
This is back in the day.
That was like eight, nine, ten years ago.
That wasn't two years ago.
Big Baby last deal, he probably made like $6 million a year, his last deal.
I wonder who that was.
Maybe 20... Let me look and see when he played. There's a lot of basketball players on there you probably don't even know. He probably made like $6 million a year, his last deal. I wonder who that, maybe $20 million.
Let me look and see when he played.
There's a lot of basketball players on there you probably don't even know.
2012.
Last year, I think Big Baby played with $20 million.
He made $6.4 million.
But here's the thing.
We're acting like these guys are guilty.
Could these guys have their due process, please?
That is true.
I just don't want to see nobody go to jail.
And especially with the NBA making $4 billion a year.
I just don't want to see nobody go to jail.
Just me. Yeah, but we're not
going to act like these NBA players be starving either
though. Come on. You're acting like this is the WNBA.
It's not the WNBA. It's the NBA.
Nah, I'm not saying they're starving, but
jeez. 800-

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts. chess hey i kind of had something going on uh first off good morning to all y'all peace king
how are you happy friday um so i've been married for like four years and uh you know my wife she
has a super low self-esteem and she's always worried about me leaving her and you know
leaving her in the dust you know oh i can't find nobody else. You know, she's just going through some stuff,
and I'm trying to figure out if it's something that I'm doing wrong
or if it's her, you know.
So I kind of wanted to get some advice from y'all.
It sounded to me like she got some internal issues
she need to handle, my brother.
I always say, too, man, when it comes to, like, you know,
love, your first, last, and best love got to be self-love.
So if she's dealing with any internal issues that's causing her not to love, your first, last, and best love gotta be self-love. So if she's dealing with any
internal issues that's causing
her not to love herself the way she should,
it's gonna be kind of hard in whatever
relationship she in, King. Yeah, I
know. It's tough, man, because we got
a daughter together, and we live
together, and we've
been together for eight years altogether.
And I've shown nothing but
complete loyalty.
You know, I don't go out and do that scene.
I'm always home working.
You know, I'm kind of confused.
Encourage her to go do the work.
Maybe y'all should go to couples therapy together.
You know what I mean?
And maybe that couples therapy will lead to her going to her own therapy.
But it just sounds like she needs, she got some things she need to heal.
That's what it sounds like to me.
I appreciate that, yeah.
Let's go do the work brother it's all kind of resources out there that y'all could y'all could y'all could y'all could get with i would start with a couple steps though
and make sure you compliment her all the time and tell her how much you love her how great she looks
to you and sometimes little things like that mean a lot sending y'all healing energy though king
hello who's this? This is Ashley.
How are you?
Hey, Ashley.
Good morning.
Peace, Ashley.
Hey, Shaggy.
I love your show, by the way.
Thank you.
Love you too.
So what I need to get off my chest is
I wish people stopped moving to Florida.
I'm busy all my life.
I'm talking about the work.
This traffic is crazy.
Like, all these people over here, for what?
They just said that Miami is number two
on the list of most expensive places
to live right in Florida.
It just surpassed LA.
Ashley,
I'm going to tell you something. It sounds like you're trying to keep people out.
You just said there ain't nothing in Florida.
Don't get me wrong. They need to go home.
All the craziest people in America come
from the Bronx and all of Florida, but Florida is still a beautiful place, but you clearly don't want people there. They need to go home. They need to go home. All the craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida,
but Florida is still a beautiful place.
But you clearly don't want people there.
I'm not crazy.
I'm not crazy.
I don't like when you say that.
Ashley, I ain't say nothing.
I'm a mom.
I ain't say nothing.
Thank you, Ashley. You sound like she's getting crazy.
You sound like she's about to get crazy.
I'm a little crazy.
See?
Thank you, Mom.
Have a good weekend.
Hello, who's this? This is Jay. Hey, Jay. Get'm a little crazy. See? Thank you, Mom. Have a good weekend. Hello, who's this?
This is Jay.
Hey, Jay, get it off your chest.
So I'm calling.
I'm not really upset.
Just a little, feeling a little fooled, a little bamboozled.
We hear about catfish.
We even know about hatfish.
These men not who they pretend to be under these hats.

Boy, I went to that boy's page.
That's a whole man with tits.
Damn.
He said he's an old man with tits.
Lord have mercy.
I was about to shoot my shot.
Everything.
I'll pass.
Plus, I know he in a relationship now and everything.
So, I wish you well, Mello. Damn. That'll pass. Plus, I know he in a relationship now and everything. So I wish you well, Mello.

It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
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 conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a
chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys,
and 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 lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun.
Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app,

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's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Ladonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg.
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 rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets. Bullets.
We need help! We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.
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 love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like, Grace. Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On Breakfast Club. So listen up. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Well, Barbara Corcoran was on The View and they were joking around and she made a comment about Whoopi Goldberg's jeans.
All right. Listen to this.
They're great jeans.
Well, I have to try them.
You have to.
Will they fit this COVID? Yes. Yes to try them Will they fit this COVID
Yes they will
They fit this COVID
And when you get finished with those jeans
And decide you don't like them give them to me
I'm going to make two pairs
Oh Barbara
Okay so now we don't like you
Wait wait wait
Let me just tell you something
Sarah Haynes and Jill Biden
Wore that dress already on TV.
That's not true.
Little poor-ass dress, okay?
Somebody else done wore that little poor-ass dress on TV twice already, all right?
Yeah, and I'm going to say this.
Whoopi Goldberg did not look like she was amused at all by that.
Actually, she looked kind of sad.
I ain't going to say she looked sad or hurt.
She just looked like, she looked like,
who the F you playing with?
Who the F you playing?
When the hell,
when the hell did you become a comedian?
Okay.
Anna had her back though.
Anna pissed all over that little poor ass dress
that two people had on the show already.
Okay.
All right.
Well,
here is what Barbara Corcoran had to say afterwards.
I just came back from The View and saw my old friend Whoopi.
As you well know, she has a phenomenal sense of humor.
I've known Whoopi for years.
I made a joke at Whoopi's expense, which I now realize wasn't funny.
For anyone who I may have offended unintentionally,
I just want to say I really am very sorry.
If she feels like she offended Whoopi and, you know,
she feels like she should apologize.
Do your thing.
I think there's only right that you should do the same,
because you offend me sometimes up here,
and it really bothers me.
So I think you should apologize to me if you believe that.
Well, I've seen about two other people
with that fake-ass beard you got on,
that same Beijing spray paint beard that you got.
I've seen about two other people in the industry with that same bid.
Okay? Little poor ass bid. Shut up!
It offends me! Apologize! I want you to
apologize! Hey, who is Barbara, though?
What she do? I don't know her.
You don't know who Barbara Corcoran is from Shark Tank?
And she's a real estate mogul?
You've never seen, like, Corcoran
real estate? No, but it makes sense now.
She's been on The Breakfast Club before.
She's been on The Breakfast Club.. She's been on The Breakfast Club
before.
Alright, now Issa Rae
Yeah,
Issa Rae has revealed
to Mike Magazine that she
actually was told to include white
characters in her show so that people would
care. She said one of her colleagues
told her, girl, if you want this ish to set off
to the next level, you gotta put a white character in there. Then white people will care about it. Then NPR is
going to write about you. Your ish will blow up. And that's why she actually added a white person
to her YouTube series, Awkward Black Girl. And she also took that advice when it came to Insecure
in 2016. She brought white actress Lisa Joyce on board to play the character of Frida, who was a
co-worker of Issa Rae's.
But then she was written out of the series at the end of season three,
when Issa Rae quit her job.
She told Mike that she then started actively resisting the temptation to
include another white character on the show.
She said,
I realized,
oh my gosh,
our show is just about black characters now in the most refreshing way.
Dropping a clues bomb for Issa Rae.
You said what, Yee?
That's a crazy thing to say to somebody.
Like, if you want your show to be successful,
you got to add white characters.
Well, listen, man.
I know one thing, though.
Issa wanted to realist in it.
I'll tell you that much.
Okay, y'all have no idea how real Issa keeps it.
But maybe y'all do.
But drop on the clues bombs for Issa Rae.
All right.

We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Now in sports and Thursday night football, the Rams beat the Seahawks 26-17.

Third. And this will be a
redemption fight if Deontay gets back.
So I can't wait to see Deontay and Tyson
go at it.
What else we got, Ye? Alright.
Now let's go to Timberview High School
in Arlington. We talked about the 18-year-old student who was being bullied,
and he's accused of injuring four people in a shooting.
Timothy Simpkins has now been released after posting bond.
He has not responded to reporters who asked if he had anything to say to his family
or to people who were wounded.
He's being charged now with three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
And he was at the pre-trial release department with family and friends.
He was getting fitted with an electronic leg monitor
and given the conditions of his bond.
If you recall, we discussed this.
He opened fire inside a Timberview High School
following a fight with another student.
The video of that fight did end up going viral.
Four people were hurt in that shooting,
including two teachers and two students.
All right.
And let's also discuss, this is an interesting story.
A woman ended up in the hospital after wearing high-cut jean shorts on a date and continually getting a wedgie.
So her name is Sam.
She's a 25-year-old from North Carolina.
She didn't expect any possible side effects from these high cut jean shorts but
unfortunately for her the wedgie that was created
by the shorts and her underwear contributed
to her ending up in the ICU.
She had cellulitis and sepsis.
So they did reach out to her
from BuzzFeed. They said she had to go to the
doctor to get treated with antibiotics for
a possible skin infection. They were
chafing. She said the next morning
she was in septic shock
she was rushed to the er she was shivering breathless couldn't walk had extreme body aches
and she realized it was more serious than she had anticipated she was actually in the icu for almost
four days and doctors had to debate whether they were going to do surgery which was basically
cutting off the part of her butt that got infected from this constant wedgie from these high-cut jean shorts.
Yeah, and the wedgie that it created and then the chafing.
And then she said she just woke up and wasn't feeling well
and she was very sore.
She said she had a large bump where the chafing had occurred
and as time went on, it started getting more painful.
And then it was a throbbing, stabbing pain in one spot.
What are we talking about?
Whose fault is this, by the way?
Like, is she blaming somebody?
Too tight and too high.
No, she's just talking about what happened to her.
This could happen to anybody.
That's what I'm thinking.
All these dudes I be seeing walking around here with tight,
high-waisted jeans on, that don't happen to them?
And they got balls.
Listen, if you end up with a wedgie nonstop
and having to pick your wedgie out
and chafing on that area,
then let this be a warning to you, okay?
Tight jeans cause wedgies?
You could end up in the hospital.
I thought like dresses and like,
what's the fabric?
Not like jean, not denim.
I didn't know denim causes wedgies.
How do you get a wedgie with denim?
I think it was high cut. And so, yeah, anything up your butt denim causes wedgies. I didn't even get a wedgie with denim. I think it was high cut.
And so, yeah, anything up your butt is a wedgie.
But I've never seen a wedgie with denim.
I've seen a wedgie with, like, you know, cotton or silk or velvet.
You know the material I'm talking about, the little soft material.
I've never seen one with denim.
Yeah, well, that's probably what caused the shaping and all these issues, too.
Because think about how rough that denim is.
My God, that's crazy.
All right, well, that is your
front page news.
Denim all in your butt?
That is nickname envy?
What?
All right, well, thank you, Miss E.

No, I'm just, I keep it in that bit, y'all.
Y'all, I got family in Nigeria and everything, y'all.
Zay, you got a movie coming out Thanksgiving, right?
Yes, sir.
What's that about?
To Finesse.
It's the Finesse game.
Yes.
So, you know, it's a comedy, and it's all about, you know, the smoke and mirrors.
Do you feel like the pandemic has elevated that finesse?
Oh, come on.
It's like I done made more money in a pandemic than anything.
And it's like, you know, you got to be creative.
You know what I mean?
Atlanta taught me how to be creative, and that's what we, you know, we shining a light on that.
So what do you mean by during the pandemic you made more?
Explain that.
It's just I got to find
new ways of making money.
You know, it's not,
I can't go out and do DJ shows.
I can't travel this place
and this and that.
So to connect with artists,
to connect with different people,
I got to do different things.
And it's almost via,
you know, the internet,
but people want to be tapped in.
So, you know,
it opened the doors
for me to be more creative.
And that's crazy because you already a natural creative.
Yeah.
You can tell that by just making music,
so that's probably just tapped into something else in your brain.
That's why, like, I'm right here with him.
You know what I mean?
It's something different.
Country Wayne now, though.
Okay, Country Wayne here.
So, hold on.
How do we know when Country Wayne making an appearance?
He took his teeth out.
Yeah, he took the teeth out, and the meter has left.
You know what's crazy, Wayne?
I heard somebody was talking about you the other day, and it was like um they can't even get wayne
to do no tv or nothing like that because you're making so much money doing stand-up and everything
else oh yeah it's yeah i can't do no tv right now i just did a tv show with bt though um it's coming
out and i got a book deal man they gave me a book deal almost seven figures for my life story for
real straight up and what it is i'm doing so much of my own stuff
and they still when they see you know auditions and stuff it'd be like like i'm about to shoot
my own movie in january in lana you know i mean um and it's just like when you do your own thing
because y'all don't trust the system i was out there in la for two years and it's like you go
you have any general meetings and all that i'm like man hold up man so you telling me i'm really
waiting on y'all to give me a year so at at some point it just became let me do my own thing and that's when I really
turned up I felt like who I was when I got in this thing it's like I was an
entrepreneur getting into the coming of game and then the coming of game turned
it back to a job mm-hmm cuz you just doing shows doing shows and comedy club
you know you wait on Hollywood to get opportunities but man most time that
opportunity ain't coming and that suck your creativity oh it take you because now you ain't
even around your people anymore so now you get on you get an la out there you you on the island you
not even connected to the soil the soil of creativity man when the pandemic hit man i was
really broke i went broke because during the pandemic man? Man, that's in my book. Man, I was down $13,000.
But then I rented out the cell million in 300 days.
Wayne, ain't no way in hell.
Now, hold on.
Okay, now, let's be clear, though.
You do got a lot of kids.
That is the number one reason.
I'm a realistic person.
When that pandemic hit, you know you got about a hundred.
You know what I'm saying?
Just paid taxes now. You know what I'm saying? Just paid taxes now.
You know what I'm saying? Trying to pay them early to do right. I shouldn't
do that. I had about a hundred grand, but
my bill was about seven to eight a month.
So that first bill came, we didn't know about no
SBA or nothing. So I'm like, God
dog, well I got down to 13,000
credit cards, Met Stop, and everything.
I was, but, you know, I owe my faith
in God, so I was like, all this Jesus
Papa stuff I've been talking about
you know I mean I say man this the time that all this positivity and help is on the way and Jesus is popular.
It's real, man.
God came to me.
And I had all my kids in the house.
He was just like, start doing these skits.
And I wasn't doing it for the money.
I'm like, well, it'll keep my balls.
Yeah.
Give to people, man.
And then that thing went up.
That's great when you do something and it's not for the money.
And then they bring you money.
Yeah.
I knew God was going to do something.
Because I was like, man, I don't scream his name too loud.
And boy, he took me in a pandemic.
He gave me my independence back
to the point I didn't even need Hollywood.
You know what I mean?
Man, what the f*** am I missing?
Because I thought you was out here
doing all types of shows
and s*** before the pandemic.
Man, don't show it on air.
Man, you go to the comedy club,
you pick up 30,000, 50,000 when you're hot.
But man, that ain't no...
Think about, okay, the agent gonna get 10.
Man, I'm gonna get 10 man yeah so if i make 40
grand eight grand gone you got 32 left it gonna cost you seven grand to travel for real you got
a crew so you had 25 ranks then child support then child support man that you ain't finna get rich
just touring you know what i mean and that's what i had to learn man and you gotta you don't know
it until it stop yeah you know what i'm saying you gotta's what I had to learn, man. And you don't know it until it stops. Yeah. You know what I'm saying?
You got to own your content.
And, you know, they teach us about that, but you don't never know it.
But online, I learned the game.
It ain't about the money I'm making.
Now, I'm making a lot of money online.
But it's the fact that even if I stop right now, I'm going to make a certain amount because of the content.
And it's like, man, that's what put me in there.
You got a catalog.
Yeah, a catalog.
It's like, man, these people, boy, they'll tour you to death and keep you out there on
that road and won't even grow your career because you just touring, touring, touring,
but I can count.
I'm like, man, yo, I'm making a million dollars a year, but after taxes, and you know, if
you're paying your taxes for real, you know how that go, man.
No, I don't.
Oh, yeah.
I pay my shit.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm saying, like, yeah, so you pay them, you know where I'm coming from, man.
And you have a lot of expenses. Yeah. Yeah. Man, child support, man. I got nine kids. Yeah, yeah. I'm saying, like, yeah, so you pay them, you know where I'm coming from, man. And you have a lot of expenses.
Yeah.
Man, child support, man.
I got nine kids for real, man.
My baby mama don't work.
I pay everybody rent.
So, uh, but that's what...
You look stressed just thinking about it.
Oh, man.
I've been doing it so long.
Man, just...
But the pandemic turned me
into a situation where I said,
I never got worried about that again.
I respect the honesty because, you know,
it's a lot of smoke and mirrors on social media, too.
A lot of people with a bunch of followers, a bunch of likes,
a bunch of views, but they don't got the money to match.
So I respect you being honest.
Oh, yeah.
Nobody going to keep it.
If you don't be real, you're going to get real results.
Because if you ain't real, see, I tell everybody,
my mom and them ain't get blessed like me because they weren't real.
We used to be poor.
And she wouldn't even pray for no food.
She prayed for a man and everything.
Listen, lady, my spirit is wicked right now.
Please pray for some food.
You're praying for a relationship.
Did your mom ever get a man?
Nah, nah.
She loved my daddy, but my daddy, he ain't come through like, you know what I'm saying?
You know how it is when a woman put their faith in a man and he lose?
You lose your faith.
My daddy and my mama, they came from the streets, but they mistakes allowed me not to do a lot of things the drawers really
told him down you know what i'm saying so so it made me never do drugs it made me stay away from
certain things you ain't on no drugs no i ain't never did nothing never smoke drink no hey this
is turnt up that's just you the spirit no i get that you know i had them kids early so once i had
them kids there like i couldn't really afford it I had seven kids by the time I was 22.
God damn.
So by the time you don't mess up, like, man, I had two children.
They were four days apart.
I went to the hospital, man, for one child.
Four days later, I came back.
The nurse was like, did you leave anything?
I was like, yeah, another child.
Did you ever try condoms?
Yeah, I tried them.
Now he do Plan B.
Yeah, Plan B don't work either, boy.
Not for mine.
I get mine different.
Man, Plan B, they owe me some money.
Why you don't like condoms, though, ain't you?
No, I like condoms.
Ain't no way.
I like the condoms after that moment, but like...
What?
I'm gonna tell you.
See, I was in high school.
Okay.
And we was all raw, dog, like Boots said.
They was young, so I...
Run afresh, so I raw, dog. Like Boosie. They was young, so I was running fresh, so I was raw, dog.
And Boosie said that.
It just, hey.
Did you quote Boosie to try to justify?
He quoted Boosie.
Like, you quoted a scripture out of the Bible just now.
I quoted Boosie.
It was just.
Boosie said that.
It just felt different.
You know, I started off with a comment.
I was like, yeah, this is the greatest thing. One day, I did it without it. I was like, wait a minute. You know I started off With a condom And I was like Yeah this is the greatest And one day
I did it without
I was like
Wait a minute
You know
I get it
Three of my baby mommas
I dealt with them one time
The first time I dealt with them
They got pricked
Wow good job
Good job
Angela
You need this help
Well I'm sure your kids
Are a blessing
Oh yeah they're a blessing
I ain't gonna lie
My kids what keep me
We moving in the house together
By ourself Me and my kids My kids would keep me. We're moving in the house together by ourself.
Me and my kids, that's what keep me going now, though.
But at this point, it's be fruitful.
So you don't even pull out?
Let me tell you what happened.
Once one of them I did.
I guess people get pregnant from their uterus or something
because I don't know.
How does she got it?
You probably have like the premature,
like a little bit first.
Yeah, I don't know what happened she got it. You probably have like the premature, like a little bit first. Yeah, I don't know what happened.
But all along came back 99.9.
I had a test on them.
And then when it came back nine,
the first one came back 99.9.
I was like, well, she ain't a hunter.
You know what I mean?
I was like, this the, hey, I'm like, hell,
this ain't a hunter.
The.1% chance.
I'm reading the paper.
It says, yeah, this not 100%.
I'm like, hey, this might not be mine,
but all them children are mine, this might not be mine.
But all them children are mine, man.
They all good.
And hell, it's just a big village.
All right, we got more with Country Wayne and Zayn Tobin when we come back.
Matter of fact, let's get into the single.
It's Be Your Future.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning. I can't be your Russell Wilson, but I can be your future.
I don't like the things I do, but you're going to like how I do it to you.
I'm in a field on the bottom,
but I'm going back to the bottom.
Since I shoot to you.
That was Be Your Future,
Country Wayne and Zaytoven.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Nayee?
Okay, so when it comes to your children's mothers, right,
because you take care of things,
is it okay for them to date other guys?
Yeah, they can date.
Let me take this off because you finna ask a hot question.
Man, listen, my baby mama go get anybody she wants.
Still going to pay their bills.
They can stay there.
That don't happen to folk.
Because sometimes when I watch that sketch, I was like,
because I love watching you online because it is like watching TV already.
But I be looking like there's a little bit of truth in some of this, right?
Because there's a lot of like the little jealous things yeah baby mama
we're jealous they don't get jealous about you getting jealous me me it's
hard for me to get jealous to the point you know probably back in the day when I
was young but we don't beat that I don't see my baby mama's with other guys after I done left them, you know what I'm saying?
So at this point, I want them to live.
They best like, I'm darn sure gonna live mine.
Like, if they find a man or whatever,
I pay their bills and everything,
but if they find somebody,
it's hard to find another Wayne, though.
You know what I'm saying?
I know, it has to be intimidating
for anybody they date, too,
to be like, well, this is my child's father, you know?
You ain't gonna find a Wayne.
And then you be doing songs where you be like, that's my ex, but she still let me hit. Yo's father. You ain't gonna find no Wayne. And then you be doing songs where you be like,
that's my ex, but she still let me hit.
Yo, yo, you ain't gonna find no Wayne.
Every ex I had,
every ex I had,
I'd never find another Wayne.
I treated him too good.
For real?
Yeah.
Not doing with him.
I wasn't with him.
I'm trying to relationships I done been.
I done been in like three real relationships,
three and a half.
Since we known you?
Or like in life? No, since y'all known me, I only been in one. Who was that? Jess a half. Since we known you? Like in life?
No, since y'all known me, I only been in one.
Who was that?
Jess, hilarious.
Oh, big Jess.
All right, what up, Jess?
And at least y'all cool with each other now.
We love to see that.
Yeah, yeah.
Unless you not again.
Nah, me and Jess cool, man.
I'm always cool with it.
How you f***ing that up, man?
Jess is a good one, man.
Man, listen, I'm a good one.
I'm the pride.
Yeah, I'm the catch.
I'm the one. I'm the prize. I'm the catch. I'm country Wayne.
I'm the one.
Hey, I'm country Wayne, man.
Me and Jesse's on, you know,
hey, man.
Hey, Jesse,
we cool, though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's gonna be hard to find another Wayne, boy. cool, though. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's going to be hard to find another Wayne, boy.
Because Wayne, boy, Wayne know what to do.
I'm blessed.
So now what's next after this EP?
Are you planning to do?
Oh, man, Drip, man, Drip.
We'll probably be performing at the Hip Hop BET or something that year.
I'm going to take on, he just hot.
Like, I just know, you know what I'm saying?
He got the people
And I know what to say he got a voice where he ain't got to make no hit so so drip man drip taking over
Like I ain't gonna let your field he owe me some money. I don't put some money
Congrats to you Tuesday told before being named one of the 50 greatest producers of the 20
I was scared man go live when I seen that little come I said
man watch I'm not on
here
really
you thought they
was gonna front on
you
South bias maybe
I don't know it's
just one of those
things you know I've
been doing this for a
long time and a lot
of times I feel like I
get looked over but
you know it's all good
so that was big
I didn't even know
that
yeah that's big man
that's big for me
well you been trying
to go up on the
price
that's right
last year's price
been up
put some emphasis on that you're the fifth That's big, man. That's big for me. Well, you've been trying to go up on the price. That's right. Last year's price was not...
The price has been up.
Put some emphasis on that.
You're the fifth greatest.
I ain't know it was a list.
When the list came out.
So you think you're getting your proper respect now?
I believe so.
You know, I believe I get what I deserve.
Are there some things that you haven't done yet that you're like,
okay, I still got to get this?
Oh, I didn't work with everybody possible, really.
And to me, things like what I'm doing now,
like what I'm doing with Country Wayne, it's like it's innovative, it's new,
it's something that somebody else ain't doing.
And I think that's what has kept me around for so long.
Yeah, I think my first big song was So Icy in 2004.
So to even be lasting this long in the game and still relevant,
I feel like each year I go up a notch.
I know this is old, but how did that Gucci-Jeezy-Versus feel to you?
Were you there?
I was there.
I was dancing on the stage the whole time.
I was right there with Gucci.
You know what I mean?
It was just amazing to be there because So Icy was the song
that made everything pop off.
And I remember at the time, but we was fighting.
It was like a real fight over the song.
You know what I mean?
So I'm tied, but I'm tied to Gucci.
Me and Gucci work with each other every day.
This my bro.
So for the song to blow up
and then it almost get blackballed
to come back years later
and, you know, it be one of the biggest verses
that you see in the beat right there,
you know, is unexplainable.
You know what I mean?
I will say it got a little tense in the room.
Yeah, absolutely.
But, you know, it was definitely dope to be there.
So at the time when, I think the story was
Jeezy wanted So Icy for the album.
So I'm sure you had to sign off on some of that too.
You probably wasn't.
I couldn't sign off.
My house couldn't hang in the barbershop at the time.
And I'm getting people come to pick me up like,
hey man, come roll with me, bro,
because, you know, we got to get the paperwork signed. I'm. I'm like well hold on I can't sign the paperwork with you
Me and Gucci this Gucci song we did this, you know together at the crib
So it was just one of them things while just stuck like it was a blessing
I got my first big song but at the same time I'm kind of nervous cuz it's like well
Dang, I do want to be on G's album. I. I know this is going to be the biggest thing going, but
at the same time, this is me and, you know,
this is what me and Gucci do. Like, you know, this is something
me and Gucci put together. Man, that says a lot about your
character. Jeezy had a bad boy deal going.
He had the Def Jam. He was the biggest thing going at the time.
Yeah, he was red hot in the street. Like, that
says a lot about you, bro. But me and Gucci, though,
you got to thank me and Gucci like brothers at this time.
He at my house every day. We recording
with each other every day. So ain't no way in the world
I'm finna
you know
do something with
these people over here
and cut my
cut my bro out
ain't no way in the world
so
speaking of respect
y'all feel like
y'all get y'all respect

Oh, you got a podcast coming?
Yeah, yeah.
Who is it coming out with?
Really, it's supposed to be, we didn't announce it yet, but I hear it.
Me and B. Simone are supposed to be doing something.
I hear B. because I feel like she got an opinion.
I feel like it'll be something that, because a lot of women agreed to disagree with me.
So I just wanted somebody who you know, who's transparent
She's real transparent online me her and her friend Megan's buddy doing a podcast. Okay, so they putting together now and all that
I want to hear it man. What you boy? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so why you got condoms?

They don't f*** with you the way they f*** with Nick Cannon.
They always talk about, oh, if I see Nick Cannon, I'm going to get pregnant.
They should be doing the same thing to you.
Y'all talking with me?
Yeah.
Nah, man.
I think Nick did a lot in a short period of time.
Oh, that's why.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
When people feel like you ain't going to respond or you don't care, people feel that vibe off
of you.
It's like when me and Jess went through that.
They got off of me because they can tell I didn't care. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like with me and Jess that went through that. They got off of me
because they can tell
I didn't care.
I put up a video
like, hey man.
So I don't got that vibe.
I don't even respond
to comments.
Man, I don't care for real.
I literally don't care.
And most of your kids
are grown.
Your youngest is how old?
My children's 16 to 3.
Honest 3, Tony's 16.
And they all,
man, them children rock with each other, man.
They close.
It's like, hell, if I didn't have them, I wouldn't know what to do.
Because I need some employees, you know.
That's the hardest thing to do in business is find a good employee.
Oh, man.
So the EP out now?

No problem. Appreciate you, man. It's Breakfast Club. real nah country wayne is a tobin aka dripping zay thank you for pulling up brother no problem
appreciate you man it's my show this club it's about time what's going on
rumor report rumor report this is the rumor report with angela yee on the breakfast club
all right well what is one thing that queen latifah says she won't do for a role that people have asked her to do?
Well, she was talking to All Worthy with Hunter McGrady. It's Yahoo Life's interview series.
And as a plus size woman in the fashion industry, she said, my weight has always been a part of my identity, not necessarily because I make it that way, but instead because of the ways in which I've been labeled.
So according to Queen Latifah,
she said that she's felt pressure
to change the way that she looks.
She said, I have felt that pressure
and I've literally been asked to lose weight
through my people.
The word came.
Luckily, I have people who are like,
yeah, that's not going to happen.
She's not losing weight for you.
And she said it also made her angry.
She said, I felt like I was fine.
I'm what people look like.
You want me to lose weight?
Why?
So there's a whole bunch of women out there who won't have someone to relate to on TV.
Is that what you're trying to get at?
Honestly, I knew by me standing up, I was actually standing up for some other people.
Dope.
So just a word to everybody.
If you want to book Queen Latifah, don't be trying to ask her to lose weight in order to be in a role.
All right.
Now let's talk about Kodak
Black. Recently he posted on social media and you know, if anybody is friends with him or knows him,
it might be a time for you to reach out to him because it feels like he's going through a lot
right now, but he tweeted so lonely, depressed, sad. And he said, nobody loved me. Nobody cares.
I'm everywhere at once. Friends playing in my head, girls playing with my heart.
Wish I can go back to the start.
I'll never be famous.
So it kind of makes me think of it.
So definitely, if you're cool with Kodak, reach out.
Yeah, absolutely.
All right.
Now, Tia West Savage was recently on Angie Martinez's show, and she was talking about somebody trying to blackmail her
to get an unspecified
sum and here's what she said happened my road manager sends me a message he's like yo check
your phone and i'm like okay so i check it and there's a video and i'm just like where did you
get this from it's a tape of me and the person i'm dating right now yeah oh my god i'm so sorry i know
so the person's asking for money now so the
person you were dating no no no no and he's going crazy too so I'm like what
are we gonna do and my managers like well how much are they asking for so I
woke up and I was like no I'm not going to allow anyone to blackmail me mmm I
respect it I mean it sucks to sucks to have your personal business out there
in that way, for sure, for sure.
But I mean, you know, you get in front of it, own it.
Like, take the power out of it.
And she also said, like, two or three months from now,
who's to say the person's not going to come back
and it'll resurface again with them asking for money.
True.
So it's kind of like a never-ending saga.
You never know. I'm sure that tape
they're still going to have it.
It'll still exist. And then once you give them money
they'll just ask for money again.
And it is 2021. I mean, you know,
how many sex tapes have we seen just come
and go of various people?
Yeah, still.
That is so traumatizing.
Of course it is.
But I mean, once it's out there, it's out there.
You know, you do your best to get it taken down off the internet the best you can.
And, you know, you own it.
Like, you know, nobody can have no power over you with that tape if you own it.
Because, like I said, there's been so many people whose tapes have come and gone.
You hear about it for a second and then poof.
I wouldn't even have heard about that if I didn't hear it on Angie Martinez.
All right.
And that's probably her getting ahead of it, too,
in case something happens, you know, so people know.
Because if anybody gets sent that tape,
they should know not to post that.
And you should know you can't violate
somebody's privacy like that.
You look off.
That's a terrible thing to do.
All right.
Adele is on the cover of Vogue.
And she's talking about addressing Beyonce, right,
after she refused.
Adele refused to accept a Grammy
because she felt like Beyonce should have won for album of the year.
She was right.
For Lemonade in 2017.
And on stage, she refused to accept the award.
And she said to Vogue in her new cover story
that she also disagrees with the Academy's choice.
She said, my personal opinion is that Beyonce definitely should have won.
And she said she assumed Beyonce would win until the ceremony started.
And she said she was overwhelmed with, I'll have to go and tell her how much her record
means to me.
And she got emotional.
She went to Beyonce's dressing room after the show.
She said when she first went in, she couldn't get it off her chest.
And after she left, she burst into tears.
And that's when her then, at the time, husband dragged her back in.
And Beyonce's publicist then at the time husband dragged her back in. And Beyonce's
publicist cleared out the room. And she said with just her and Beyonce, she said to her that the
way that the Grammys works, the people who control it at the very top, they don't know what a visual
album is. They don't want to support the way that she's moving things forward with her releases and
the things that she's talking about. So she said Lemonade deserved a win for my friends who are
women of color. It was such a huge acknowledgement for them
of the sort of undermined grief that they go through.
For her to nail that on the head
and also bring in the entire globe.
She said, this album is my album.
She just knows what I'm going through.
That album was not written for me,
but yet I could still feel like this is the biggest gift.
Yeah, Lemonade was definitely robbed that year.
Lemonade was 100% robbed that year.
I remember that vividly.
Because I remember, didn't Adele break the Grammy
in half or something? And tried to give half to
Beyonce? Well, she said
when she got her Grammy in the mail, it was
broken. And she said the
way that she paid tribute to Beyonce, she
said she put a piece of fruit,
there's a lemon, in the broken part of the trophy.
I don't want the lemon. I want the goddamn
lemonade. That one's called
Lemonade. What is that lemon for?
The hell? She can't put
lemonade in the trophy. You can send
me some case of my card.
That's your rumor report.
Who are you giving your donkey to,
Charlamagne? Oh, man, this is a great story,
and I really think we need to take this.
Well, you know what? Her name is Emo.
Emo is suing Geico.
We'll talk about it.
All right.
We'll get to that next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Your mornings will never be the same.
This Sunday on CBS, Queen Latifah is back equalizing injustice in The Equalizer.
Need help?
Have nowhere to run?
She's the one you call when you can't call 911.
America's number one news show, The Equalizer,
returns this Sunday at 8, 7 central on CBS.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Donkeys of the Day, I'm Charlamagne.
I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day
is a little bit of a mixed place.
So like a donkey.
Keyhole. Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Keyhole.
Donkey of the day.
The practice club, bitches.
Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years that donkey of the day is a new one.
Hey, donkey of the day for Friday, October 8th goes to a woman named M.O.
I don't know if that's her real name, but court documents refer to her as M.O.
And M.O. is suing a lot of people's favorite insurance agency, Geico.
Okay, dropping the clues bombs for Geico.
Geico, where 15 minutes could save you 15% or more on car insurance.
Fun fact, do you know that their original motto was you could still save money on car insurance even if you made a few mistakes?
Also a fun fact, that Geico Lizard's name is actually Martin.
Did anybody know that?
Okay, another fun fact.
Martin the Lizard is Geico's mascot because back in a galaxy far, far away called 1999,
Geico debuted its mascot, the Geico Gecko, and they chose the Gecko because Geico had
often been mispronounced as Gecko.
And boom, Martin the Geico Lizard was born.
Okay, when you do your Googles, you end up going down a rabbit hole of information
that some would call useless until you realize these are great casual conversations to have at dinner.
Now, M.O. is suing Geico, people.
She's suing for $1 million.
Okay, I was reading this story on the Daily Mail and I really couldn't believe it. I mean, historically,
insurance companies cover
injuries that happen out of the ownership,
maintenance, or use of the car, but
M.O. feels she's owed compensation from
Geico. That
really doesn't have anything to do
with Geico? Now, I don't like explaining
these stories, so it's always good when it's someone else
who does. We found a YouTube
channel from a young woman named Lady T.
Lady T broke this story down.
So let's go to Lady T for the report, please.
A Missouri woman is seeking $1 million
from Geico in a federal court
after she had sex and contracted
an STD from a man
in the backseat of his vehicle
that was covered by the insurance provider.
The insurance company has since
filed a countersuit and have
accused the pair, who
have elected to remain anonymous,
of colluding for a massive
payout. The woman, referred to
as M.O. in the court document,
filed a liability suit
after having unprotected sex with
a man labeled M.B.
in the backseat of his 2014
Honda Genesis, a testing positive for hpv as a result
the car is covered by the insurance policy and mb's name at that point the woman without geico's
knowledge into legal talks with her then lover and reach an agreement in state court where she will receive $5.2 million
if only from Geico court documents concerning the case revealed.
Well, thank you, Lady T.
Drop on the clue box, Lady T.
I don't know, Lady T.
We just snatched her audio.
That's all.
Okay.
Long story short, Elmo wants compensation from Geico.
$1 million in damages because she had unprotected sex in 2017
in the backseat of a 2014
hyundai genesis and she caught an std first of all hpv is the most common sexually transmitted
disease in these streets okay 42 of all adults ages 18 to 49 walking around here with hpv all
right experts estimate 80 of all sexually active people are infected. All right. It's just a basic disease.
Ironically, the Hyundai Genesis is a basic car.
Ironically, ironically, M.O., you sound kind of basic.
I hate to say it like that, and I'm sending you healing energy, but the logic ain't logic in this story.
Okay, you pop that boom, boom, boom, goon, unprotected in the back of that Hyundai Genesis,
and now you want to sue for a million dollars because Geico is the insurance
company that covers the car?
Listen, Geico
covers injuries that
happen out of the ownership,
maintenance, or use
of
the car.
Hmm. Hold up now. Hold up.
Use of the car. Use of
the car. Use of the car car they used the car for sex and
she caught an hpv bro and mo might have a case i might have to reel this in okay geico is suing
back accusing the couple of conspiring to capitalize on a situation that they created
themselves and they are both in
it together and are colluding for a payout and mo reached an agreement with dude she was smashing
in the hyundai they came to an agreement in state court where she would get 5.2 million from the
company i don't even know how that works skyco is countersuing and wants to know why the couple is
hiding their identities but i think i think mo might have a case here i can't i can't in good
conscience give this woman donkey of the day until we go to Breakfast Club Court.
I need to hear from more people because Geico, even in their counter suit, they're not really saying she tripping.
They just saying she colluding with the dude she's accusing of giving her an STD.
And we might have a case, bro, because Geico covers injuries that happen out of the ownership,
maintenance, or use of the car.
That Hyundai was being used.
It was just being used for sex.
Some could even say sex is maintenance.
But let's stick to the use of the car thing.
I don't know, man.
Hit the Breakfast Club Court music, right?
Hit the Breakfast Club Court music.
Does M.O. have a case?
I don't know, bro.
Yeah, hey.
Explain.
Talk to me, Evie.
All right.
Well, let's talk about it.
800-585-1051.
Now, as an attorney for Geico, I can't award this woman this much money.
And let me tell you the reasons why.
How many times have you burnt your finger on the lighter in the car?
That means I would have to pay for that because that injury really happened in the car.
But what about when you just hit your head or bumped something on the car? Does that mean I got to pay for that because that injury really happened in the car. But what about when you just hit your head or bump something on the car?
Does that mean I got to pay for that?
No, she had sex with that dirty D and she has to take that.
That has nothing to do with me or Geico or what happened as an accident in that car.
Well, question.
No, let me push back on that, sir.
You're in the car.
You're using a lighter in the car.
That is use of the car.
Just because you weren't smart enough to sue Geico for the
damages that you incurred because you're
thinking of things like accidents
and just typical things that
happen with the car as
things that could be claims.
That sounds like use of the car to me.
You get burned by a lighter that's in the car?
That was use of the car, bro.
I don't
know, man. It sounds like MO got a case.
Does Geico owe her money?
Nah.
All right, well, let's open up the phone lines.
800-585-1051.
Does Geico owe this young lady money?
She was having sex in the back of a Hyundai, man.
She had sex in the back of the car, and she got HPV.
Does that mean that Geico have to pay for that?
Does that mean every accident that happens in the car,
Geico now has to pay for it?
Is that a thing?
I didn't know until I just read this.
I read it.
It says it covers injuries that happen out of the ownership,
maintenance, or use of the car.
They were using the car for sex.
There was damages that happened in the car.
The guy owns the car.
That backseat shouldn't be so comfortable.
That's what I'm saying.
If that car didn't have a backseat or a passenger seat, there could be no use of the car for sex.
Why the Hyundai Genesis got a backseat?
Cars are used to drive, not for sex.
They're supposed to be going to drive from point A to point B.
You're not supposed to use a car for sex.
Who says?
Show me in the manual where it says you can't use a car for sex. Show me in the Hyundai Genesis manual where it says that sex is not covered under the use of car.
Show me.
And how do we know that HPV didn't come from the back seat?
Whoa.
Now you logicking.
Now the logic's starting to logic a little.
Logic.
Oh, my goodness.
Call us up right now.
Let's talk about it.
800-585-1051.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's time for Breakfast Club Court.
Tell them why, Charlamagne.
Man, we are taking a young woman to Breakfast Club Court.
Her name is M.O.
M.O. is suing geico for a million dollars
for damages that she suffered in the backseat of a hyundai genesis because she was having sex
and she called it hpv and she said that it's geico's fault because the geico is the insurance
company that covers the car now i never thought about, but Geico covers injuries that happen out of the ownership, maintenance, or use of the car.
That guy was using the car for sex.
He's the owner of that car.
Geico covers the car.
He gave her an HPV.
Sounds like she got a case, bruh.
I have to disagree.
I mean, you can't charge me for everything that goes on in that car I mean as a kid I burnt
my finger on the cigarette lighter so does that mean
I get to sue
Geico the other day I was in
an Uber and a spider
popped out and it almost bit me
if that spider would have bit me and I would have got a little something
does that mean I could have sued Geico if they had
Geico insurance yes
possibly if this woman wins her case then yes
well maybe not the spider, but the lighter, definitely.
Because the lighter is use of the car.
You were using the car.
You were using something that even was in the car,
and you got burnt.
Spider, maybe not.
Lighter, I think so.
All right, well, let's go to the phone lines.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, hey, this is Y.
What do you think, bro?
Man, I ain't gonna lie to you look i was talking black and white government everything just make fine print the use of the car you said what it's
in the fine print the use of the car they use that car to have that session cause that disease
i don't speak your type of nigga bro i don't even know what the hell you just said. All I heard was s***.
Use of the car.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, this is Pyro.
Pyro, what you think?
Man, look, I'm from that city.
Do you hear me?
Like, St. Louis is my city.
You feel me?
And you can't take hustle away from them people.
S-E-L is known as hustle.
But that right there, this ain't doing.
That's that little giga.
We call it a giga move.
So what you think?
You don't think she got a case?
She ain't got no case, man.
But at the same time, you like to are using the car, though.
That's what I'm saying.
It's use of the car.
And the guy owns the car.
And Geico covers the insurance of that guy.
He used the car for sex, and there was some damages, bro.
I don't know, man.
I feel like with the right lawyer, she could win this.
You right.
You right, Angela.
Look, the damages is to that woman's fountain.
That fountain creates tears.
Her tears ain't going to come out right.
Thank you for calling.
In the fine print, it says when you purchase these cars,
you're supposed to use these cars to drive a vehicle,
not to be reckless, and having sex in the car is reckless.
Does it say that you can't have sex in the car?
And, Envy, it sounds like you're passing judgment.
A lot of people have sex in their car.
That's right.
A lot of people have sex in their car.
You've had sex in your car before, Envy.
What if you live out your car?
That's a good point, too, Yee. It's people that live out their car. You've had sex in your car before, Envy. What if you live out your car? That's a good point
too, Yee. It's people that live out their car.
Cars serve multiple purposes
other than just driving, bruh.
No, but I believe Geico only
covers for driving. You just can't have a
car and just say, I'm going to sleep and live in my car
and be insured. It says they cover
injuries. It says Geico covers
injuries that happen out of the ownership,
maintenance, or
use of the car. They were
using that car, bro. Hello, who's this?
This is Jennifer.
Hey, Jennifer, what do you think? I absolutely
not believe that she is due
any money. Like you said earlier,
she slept with that dirty D,
so therefore she got what she deserved.
Yeah. She don't deserve a
payout. Yeah, but that dirty D owns that Hyundai Genesis that's covered by Geico.
And when there's damages due to the use of the car,
and he was using the car for sex, I don't know.
That wasn't used to the car.
The car wasn't being used.
I believe she has a case, but I think it's also kind of crappy
that she found a root cause to get it like that.
You had to go get an HCV to get a payday.
I don't think it's a loophole.
I think it's a dirty pee hole.
And I think that dirty pee hole is attached to that car.
And that car is covered by Geico.
And the damages have to be covered by somebody.
And somebody is going to have to pay for that payday because now our insurance rates
are going to go over Tyco because they have to
make up for that 5 point something million
loss. That's right. That's right. And I'm going to be honest
with you. I think some of y'all hating
because a lot of y'all done caught STDs in cars
too and y'all never thought to sue
the guy in the
insurance agency.
Well, I definitely hate on her because of that.
I got to give her props.
She's going to do the dang thing.
I still think it's kind of crap, but I'm a little jay.
Yeah, I'm a little fancy about it.
I know you right now sound really nice.
I'll take that.
I'll take that.
What STD did you catch in the car?
Oh, I ain't never caught another STD, ever.
And I'm 46 years old. I'm 43 and never caught an STD. I'm happy for call? I ain't never called another STD ever, and I'm 46 years old.
I'm 43 and never called an STD.
I'm happy for that.
That's a great stat.
Have a great day.
800-585-1051.
Should this lady get money from Geico?
That is the question.
We're in Breakfast Club Court.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're in Breakfast Club Court.
Charlamagne, tell them why.
We're in Breakfast Club Court because there's a woman named M.O.
who is absolutely positively suing Geico for a million dollars
because she had sex with a dude in the backseat of a Hyundai Genesis.
The Hyundai is covered by Geico.
The guy owns the car.
She called an STD, and somebody got to pay for the damages.
I think she has a case simply because Geico covers injuries that happen
out of the ownership, maintenance, or use of the car.
All right, so we're going to the phone lines.
What do you think?
Do you agree or not?
Hello, who's this?
This is Nicole.
Nicole, what are your thoughts, Mama?
I feel like she may
actually have a case because
I actually just had to do a daycare
and learning about the laws
and then, you know, a few years back
there was a lady that sued McDonald's
and got almost $3 million
in punitive damages because
she spilled hot coffee on herself. I remember that.
I remember that case because they didn't, what was it? The coffee on her girl. I remember that. I remember that case.
What was it? The coffee was too hot or something like that?
Yeah.
I mean, who thought that she spilled the coffee?
But she won the case.
She won the case.
I don't know. I just think that we upset that we never thought
about this before. But truth
be told, that woman experienced
damages in the backseat of that man's
Hyundai Genesis, bro. And the Hyundai Genesis
is Yusuf's car. He was using the car for sex.
I think she got a case.
Yeah, and I think with the right lawyer, she could win this.
I agree. Hello, who's this?
This is Shel, man.
Shel, what are your thoughts, bro?
I don't know, man. Charlemagne might got a
point there, man.
He said the use of the car. You think Geico's gonna have to
change their language up after this.
That's right.
That's right.
I think Geico has the language to protect themselves.
It's very vague.
It's very vague, and I just think this could be a class action lawsuit
for other people who might have gotten STDs in their car.
That's right.
Think about all the gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia, herpes
that's been caught in insured cars.
You know, these people own these cars that are insured by companies.
Somebody got to pay for them damages, bruh.
It's definitely going to set a precedent.
You know, imagine, you know, everybody that, you know, like y'all said,
STDs and everything in the car.
It's just going to set a precedent for everybody.
Everybody's going to come out of the woodwork.
Man.
I don't think they can do that.
Geico got to be protected somehow, some way.
There's no way they're going to let this slide because there's so many accidents
that happen in the car that have nothing to do with driving.
So I'm sure Geico is fully aware of this already.
Geico wasn't protected.
MO wasn't protected.
And that's the problem.
Okay, that's how STDs got passed.
And Geico covers the insurance of this car.
Somebody has to pay.
I think it's going to be Geico.
I'm not going to lie.
I didn't even think about it until I read the fact that it is use of car.
Hello, who's this?
How you doing, brother?
It's Muhammad from East Northport.
How are you?
Peace, King.
And Muhammad, what are your thoughts?
Yes, sir.
I'm saying, I don't know who the burden of proof is on, but how can she prove that she
didn't already have HPV or two, that that was that specific encounter where she contracted
HPV?
I like you, Muhammad.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you, sir.
Yeah.
Uh-oh. What do you say now, Charlamagne Angela? How do we even know she got HPV. I like you, Muhammad. Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Uh-oh.
What do you say now,
Charlemagne Angela?
How do we even know
she got HPV in the car?
Well, maybe if she had
went to the doctor
prior to that incident
and then afterward
noticed that she had
just recently contracted it,
I think that might be
something the doctor can prove.
No, she could have had
HPV outside the car.
They could have had,
she could have bent it over
on top of the car
or on the tree
or in the house
before they got in the car. Whoa. And she actually got it in the car. It's still use of the car. No matter, it's still use of the car. If you have had, she could have bent her over on top of the car or on the tree or in the house before they got in the car.
Whoa.
She actually got it in the car.
It's still use of the car.
It don't matter.
It's still use of the car.
If you bent her over that hood,
it's still use of the car, sir.
Okay.
It could have been in the house
beforehand.
It could have been in the street.
Nope.
She said it happened in the car.
How do we know?
We don't.
How do we know that it
actually happened in the car?
Nope.
Muhammad, you're right.
Muhammad saved the day.
I'm not going to say
he saved the day,
but you know,
it's still up for debate.
That's all I'm saying
I think she got a case
so what's the moral
what's the moral of the point
are you giving a donkey or not
the moral of the story
y'all better start reading
the fine print of these cards
cause we might have been
letting these people get away
with a lot of damages
they might have been
getting off scot-free
not paying us for a lot
of damages over the years
that's the moral of the story
my goodness
alright now we got
rumors on the way
yes Real Housewives of Potomac, the reunion is coming up.

And shout out to NBA Youngboy.
His new Sincerely Control album has cracked six billion streams.
Is that amazing?
Wow.
Yeah, what that mean?
So congratulations to him. How much money that cost? By the way, his music has been streamed over six billion streams. Is that amazing? Wow. Yeah, what that mean? So congratulations to him.
How much money that comes?
By the way, his music has been streamed over six billion times since September 2020,
but he's only gotten 55,000 radio airplay spins in that same time period.
We know radio isn't the most culturally competent right now.
Radio's not the most in tune right now with what's going on.
That's just a fact.
You might got to put some Youngboy in the mix, Envy.
By the way, this is what
Youngboy's fourth number one album, isn't it?
I think. Yep. Something like that.
I've never
heard Envy a Youngboy on the radio.
I asked that question a couple years ago.
Why is it Envy a Youngboy on the radio? What do I know?
Is he signed to somebody?
Yeah. He's on Atlantic.
I thought he was Atlantic Independent, right?
They have like a deal.
Now, he's not signed to them as an artist.
He has like a production deal, right?
I would love to know why radio ignores NBA Youngboy.
I really would.
That's a good question.
I would love to know.
I would love to know why program directors, DJs,
don't pay attention to NBA Youngboy.
Is it because he's too young?
And maybe some of the DJs are older and they're not in tune?
I don't know.
What is it?
What do you think?
I'm not sure.
I mean, maybe he just doesn't play the game of politics,
of going to visit the stations and do interviews and things like that.
Who knows?
Well, we know what's going to happen.
We heard last week that him and Drake were supposed to collab.
Him and Drake will do a record and then radio will jump on that record
and play it because Drake's on it.
There you go.
And then act like they've been on NBA Youngboy the whole time.
We know how the game goes.
All right.
Now, speaking of how the game goes, Youngberg has spoke some things into existence.
Now, he was talking about coming onto the Breakfast Club and lying about having had an opportunity
and all these different people coming at him to be an executive at one of these labels.
And this was on the Fact Podcast.
Here's what he said.
On my journey to become an executive,
I just started having a big shine, bounce backs,
and I had a few different records that was bubbling.
I went and did Breakfast Club.
I really went up there and spoke into existence.

I have Dr. Rita Walker here, the author of The Unapologetic God, The Black Mental Health.
The word should, you know, we were discussing it when we were talking just now.
Should means judgment is what Angela Rice said to me.
But we always say what we should be doing.
We should be in the gym.
You know, we should be in church. We should be doing this. We should be doing that. We should be at a certain
place in our life. Why is that word so harmful? I should is pressure. It is pressure. And we have
enough pressures from so many different directions that we don't have to pressure ourselves. I get
it. You know, we, we feel like if we say I should be doing something, it's like, it's a motivator.
Like I should work out, but if you're not working out, there's probably a reason you're not working out.
And so should removes the problem solving also.
So if you say it would be nice if I worked out, it would be helpful if I worked out.
Then that opens up opportunities for problem solving. Like, OK, so if I'm not working out, what's going on?
What's the problem? What do I need to change to change you know do I need to work out a certain
time of day do I need to get my clothes out the night before so if I have my
workout clothes available I can go work out so should is pressure and it also
eliminates the options for problem-solving what if some people need
that pressure what are the people that absolutely positively should be doing
something you got to give me an example I drive my students nuts and I've been driving them nuts for 19 years because
they will say,
should this and should that.
And I literally just stop and watch them like,
and they,
until they say,
okay,
I'm sorry.
I said,
you should stop smoking crack.
You should,
you should stop.
I knew you would come up with something.
It would be helpful if you stopped smoking crack,
but it's sound strong enough though
but why do you need something strong
maybe the reason that they're smoking crack is stronger
ooh damn
yeah yeah yeah yeah
what are some strategies
that people should use then
when they're in a rut
are they anxious
when you said they're dealing with something
stronger than the thing that they're abusing? You know, that really is a tough
question, you know, to be honest. And it has it has a lot of layers because for a lot of folks,
you know, when they're in, you just kind of like a fish in the fishbowl. All they know is the water
around them and what they're dealing with and how they're living their day to day life. They might
see outside the fishbowl and see like everybody else seems to be doing okay,
but they can't get there.
And for those folks who are, you know, in that fishbowl, it is good for them to have
people around them who can reflect back to them like, okay, this is what I see and not
in a judgmental way, you know, like this is what I see.
I am concerned.
It takes vulnerability to be able to say that, which we don't do very well with vulnerability.
But, you know, I'm afraid for you. I'm afraid you may not be here tomorrow.
And so when we communicate what that person's behavior is doing to us, then it lets them know, OK, they're here.
They're not judging me. They're just telling me they're concerned. And when they're ready, they'll go to that person.
Can you discuss psychological fortitude, which you which you talk about in Unapologetic Guide to
Black Mental Health? I'm happy to do it because, you know, whenever you ask someone like, well,
how you doing? And they say something like, you know, they say something that doesn't tell you
much. And in order for us to move these conversations forward, we need to have more
honest conversations about where we are. And that's for ourselves and also for the people
around us.
And, you know, mental health, people hear that.
They think all kinds of things.
They think, you know, you crazy or I'm not crazy because I'm not, you know, losing my mind.
But there are levels to this.
So psychological fortitude kind of replaces the language of mental health.
But it still speaks to our ability to be able to use our minds, to go to work,
take care of school, take care of our family, take care of our health, be able to use our minds, to go to work, take care of school,
take care of our family,
take care of our health,
and also tap into our life purpose.
You know,
everyone,
every single person has a life purpose,
but they can't access it because there's just so much going on in life.
They're so overwhelmed by life.
So if you can give a zero to 10 rating,
you know,
if I say for you,
you know,
okay,
so on a zero to 10 scale,
what is your capacity to be able to do your work and
take care of your family and to be able to take care of your physical health that's important
as important as mental health um and to live your life purpose on a zero to ten zero being i can't
do any of that and ten is i'm cooking with grease i'm knocking it out the part you know what's a
rating uh probably yeah for me i'd probably like say six, seven.
OK, six or seven is fine. And I notice you pause. It doesn't have to be a perfect number.
Right. Because if you share that with somebody, then they know like, you know, he's OK.
You know, things could be better, obviously. But if I ask you tomorrow and you say it's an eight, then I know you're doing better.
You know, it doesn't have to be a perfect number, but it communicates to someone else who's listening how you're doing.
If someone says they're at about a four or five,
then the person who hears that is able to say, well, hey, you know,
sounds like something's going on.
You want to just get lunch?
You don't even have to talk about whatever the thing is, but just being there.
So the zero to 10 also gives us an opportunity to figure out what kinds of
adjustments or changes need to be made.
Maybe the person needs support. Maybe they don't.
Yeah, I don't think you could ever get to a perfect number if you're truly taking care of yourself as well.
Like, you know, if you're pouring in other people, but also taking the time to point to yourself, I don't think you'll ever get to get to a perfect number.
Because to me, a perfect number means that I'm just going all out and I'm never, ever, ever, ever stopping.
Eventually I'm a crash.
Well, and actually when I say, when I say perfect, I mean that you get the precise rating.
Got you.
Yeah.
So I don't expect anybody to be at a 10, certainly in a global pandemic.
Like I just, that, that can't happen.
We don't have, you know, our usual day-to-day life.
A lot of folks still trying to figure out, you know, what they're doing.
A lot of folks are dealing with grief and loss.
So I don't expect for anybody to be at a 10, especially in a global pandemic.
But maybe if we can get on the other side of this, there may be 10 days, you know, and nine to 10 days.
But yeah, when folks are always pouring out, you know, they have to be aware of that.
And they have to say, like, I'm doing things that are important to me.
But if I'm at a, you know, six, I either need to back up off of some of that or I need to find someone who's going to pour into me.
Absolutely.
Got to make the adjustments.
Her name is Dr. Rita Walkers.
Her book is The Unapologetic Guide to Black Mental Health.
Y'all need to go grab that right now. And you can see her this Sunday at the Mental Wealth Expo at the Marriott Marquis Times Square from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. right here in New York City.
She'll be speaking on the Black Women's Mental Health Panel with Tracy J., Dr. Alfie Noble.
Hold on. I don't want to miss nobody.
Dr. Chairman Jackman and Corey Miner-Smith.
OK, so make sure you come check her out and check her out tonight on The God's Honest Truth on Comedy Central.
My late night talk show at 10 p.m.
And you said something on the show tonight that I would love for you to end with.
You introduced the phrase that I feel should be in every corporation in America.
And that phrase is culturally humble. What does that mean?
Well, you know, we talk a lot about cultural competence, right?
That in business, in all sorts of industries, we want people to be culturally competent.
But that suggests that there's like a checkbox or someplace that you arrive.
You know, if you get enough information, then you'll be competent.
And what we really need is for people to understand that it's more of a process.
And it's a disposition that recognizing, certainly for individuals who are white or European American,
that I don't know everything about other cultures.
And I need to have a space or disposition
where I'm gaining more information,
I'm processing more information,
and I'm not making assumptions about other groups
that we're all just the same.
I understand that we want to do this melting pot thing,
but we really are more of a salad bowl
and we need to understand all the different parts.
And that is a process that takes time.
Ooh, it's Dr. Rita Walker.
Thank you for coming, Dr. Walker.
