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.

Let's all listen to this show.

The only one who can keep these guys in check.
With Charlamagne Tha God.
I'm a lovable a**hole.
And this is The Breakfast Club, bitches!
Good morning, Angela Yee. Hey, good morning, DJ Envy. Charlamagne Tha God. Peace to the planet.
It's Monday.
Yes, it's Monday.
Back to the work week.
Yes, sir.
Hopefully, everybody had a great weekend.
How was your weekend, Yeezy?
It was great.
I was in Charlotte, North Carolina.
I was in Charlotte, and I was in North Carolina.
I was in Greensboro, though.
Oh, yeah, I was in Charlotte from Thursday until Saturday.
I had a couple of events.
One was State Farm and Essence Magazine, Women Let's Win, which was really, really dope. I had a couple of events. One was State Farm and Essence Magazine,
Women Let's Win, which was really, really dope.
I had a great time with that.
And then the other one was a woman's, it was a brunch that I was on the panel for
with some incredible women.
So it was a nice, empowering, beautiful weekend in Charlotte.
Okay, yeah, I was out in Greensboro.
Shout out to Winston-Salem.
This is my homecoming tour.
This is when I hit all the homecomings this weekend.
I'm at Howard, Hampton, and Birmingham.
So this is when I run through the cities and run through the colleges and have a lot of fun.
So this is my homecoming tour.
And also, shout out to everybody.
I did a real estate class.
This is like my fourth one.
Teaching people how to get into real estate.
Teaching them what to do, where to look for real estate.
Teaching them how to find the properties, where to get loans.
So we had a great conversation.
I actually bought lenders,
people who, you know, hard money lenders,
who if people's credit is a little messed up,
how they can get money from people.
I brought conventional lenders.
I brought attorneys.
It was a great turnout.
So shout out to everybody
that came out to our real estate class.
I mean, we oversold trying to get people in the door,
but it was fun.
We're going to have another one soon and hopefully people got a lot
of education and will start investing in their
own. So, shout out to everybody that came out.
What about you, Charlemagne? Oh, y'all had
much more eventful weekends than me. You know,
only thing I try to do nowadays is
get some sleep. But then, you know, you have
sleepers remorse because I got the newborn in the house.
So, the newborn is like three weeks old.
So, it's like the wife has to get up every two
and a half hours to feed the baby and the wife
tries to sleep when the baby is
sleeping. So it's like if you're just
laying there and you're getting your snooze on
while your wife is having to be up at 2, 3
in the morning breastfeeding, that'll make you
feel a way. Absolutely. Sometimes you just gotta
sit up and just sit up in the bed
and act like you're there and act like you're attentive.
That's when you start asking dumb questions because the blood's not really
flowing to your brain. So you ask stupid
questions like, how do you know when the baby's
finished eating?
You know what I'm saying? Did you really ask that?
Yes, I did. I couldn't think of anything else to say.
It's your third child. You should
know that. It never gets any easier,
by the way. It does.
And as a father, you never truly
know how to hold the baby. Okay? I know how to hold the baby as a father, you never truly know how to hold the baby.
Okay?
And he's like, I know how to hold the baby.
Yeah, I got five.
I definitely know how to hold the baby.
Congratulations.
I be sitting there holding the baby in my arms, and I'm like, I still don't necessarily get it
because I always feel like I'm hurting the baby in some way, shape, or form.
I'm five, and I got it.
I mean, the best thing about a newborn is when you start giving the baby cereal,
because that's when, instead of feeding the baby every two hours,
it goes to like every four hours.
That's not a newborn anymore, sir.
That's like what, a month and a half old?
No, man.
Cereal?
Yeah, you start giving it two months.
Cereal got to be like at least three months.
Come on now.
I think like two months.
Cereal?
Yeah.
No way.
Give them a little cereal.
Cereal, we might be totally off.
I think cereal is a little more than like six months.
Nah.
Yeah, it's because cereal is when they sit. I ain't done it in two years. I think cereal's a little more than, more than like six months. Nah. Yeah, it's because cereal's when they sit.
I ain't done it in two years.
I don't know.
Yeah, cereal's when they sitting up in the little chair.
No, they not.
I'm talking about the cereal in the milk,
when you put the cereal in the milk,
and you shake up the milk,
and you put it in a bottle.
We definitely sound,
oh, in the bottle.
Yes, the bottle cereal.
It's like six, seven weeks, eight weeks.
Oh, no, we breastfeeding for at least a year, though.
I'm saving all that bread for at least a year.
I ain't mad at you.
You're going to get that natural nectar.
Thank God you guys aren't moms.
That's all I have to say.
You're going to get that natural nectar for at least a year.
I ain't mad at you.
Okay.
All right.
Well, today on the show, we have nephew Tommy and Will Packer joining us.
Now, Will Packer, you know, film producer.
He produced Think Like a Man.
He's a black Hollywood gatekeeper.
Girls Trip.
All right.
And more. Breaking in. He did a lot of movies. He did a lot of movies. He's a black Hollywood gatekeeper. Girls Trip and more.
Breaking in. He did a lot of movies.
He keeps people in and he keeps people out.
They have a new show on their own network called Ready to Love.
We'll kick it with him in a little bit.
We got front page news. What are we talking about, Yee?
We are going to talk about, of course, y'all playing
the Powerball.
The Powerball and the Mega Millions combined
is huge. Two
billion dollars, and there's still no winner.
Alright, we'll get into all that when we come
back. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV,
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are
The Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page
news. Now, in
sports, the Chargers beat the Titans 2019.
The Patriots beat the Bears 38-31.
The Colts beat the Bills 37-5.
Texans beat the Jaguars 27.
The Lions beat the Dolphins 32-21.
Vikings beat the Jets 37-17.
The Panthers beat the Eagles 21-17.
The Buccaneers beat the Browns in overtime 26-23.
New Orleans beat the Ravens 24-23.
Rams beat the 49ers 39-10.
And the Redskins beat the Cowboys 20-17.
Who's watching football, okay?
I'm not a sellout.
I don't watch no NFL.
Your team lost.
Okay, I'm with Cap.
And tonight, my Giants take on the Falcons in Atlanta.
And the World Series begins Tuesday.
The Dodgers versus the Boston Red Sox.
Did you guys see the fight over the weekend?
Which one?
At the Lakers game?
Yes.
Rondo versus Chris Paul.
What did you think?
I'm just curious.
Does he spit on him or something?
No, he didn't.
I'm just asking what happened.
It was accidental.
You can tell it was
an accidental spitting.
Like, come on.
He didn't like
cock back a loo game
and spit in your face.
He was having a conversation
and the spit came out their mouth.
And it was an argument.
They were arguing.
So in the midst of that argument,
some mist came out of his mouth.
Right. That's all. It wasn't a real that argument, some mist came out of his mouth. That's all.
It wasn't a real intentional spitting.
It wasn't a little spit.
I still don't understand how Brandon Ingram gets to spend more games than everybody. He should because he came running
back to swing.
Had nothing to do with it. He didn't know what was
going on. Rondo cold-clopped Chris
Paul dead in his jaw. He should have got four
games. Because he poked him in the forehead.
Now let's talk about this lottery.
Alright, the Powerball and the Mega Millions.
Have you guys played?
Yes.
I saw people mad that people that have a lot of money,
like Floyd Mayweather, bought $20,000 worth of tickets.
Well, there's still no winner, right?
So the combined jackpot is about $2.2 billion.
So you still have the opportunity to win.
So you guys got to make sure y'all go across the street
and play the Powerball and the Mega Million.
Absolutely. Hope sells more than dope.
That's what America's all about. America's all about
the buying and selling the dreams. We are buying
into a dream right now. We are buying hope
like it's dope. I'm buying too. Somebody gonna
win at some point. Alright, now there's
a viral video that everybody's talking
about. If you guys saw this, a police officer
hit a 14-year-old girl during an arrest.
Didn't just hit her, but was punching her.
Yeah, was really punching her.
The girl was being held down by two officers,
and the male officer hit the girl in the side twice as he was holding her shorts.
Now someone in the video is yelling, why are you hitting her?
She can't do that.
Her hands are underneath her.
The F you hitting her for.
This all happened, and the police department in Coral Springs actually put up a statement.
They said officers were called
to the mall by security about unruly
teens who had been harassing patrons
and causing a disturbance.
They said one mother said that her five-year-old
child was shoved to the ground by one of the teens.
In addition, mall security
indicated one of the female teens was seen
striking another teenager.
The officers did issue a trespass warning
and barred the teens from the mall.
Then they said officers attempted to take this young girl
into custody. That's when she started to fight
and resist arrest. Due to her
stature and aggressive behavior, officers
took her to the ground, attempting to get her to release
her fists. As seen in the video, she
resisted arrest, and in order to have her to comply,
she was struck and decided to release
her clenched fists. She was then handcuffed.
And that's when they said they put her in the patrol car
and she violently kicked one of the officers.
Even if the young girl was doing everything you said they were doing,
you're asking too much of me as a father to sit back and watch that.
You think as a father I'm supposed to sit there and just let you beat on my 14-year-old?
And how come police officers don't treat those situations like doctors, so to speak?
Like male doctors don't necessarily mess with the female patients, right?
Yeah, because there was a female officer there.
It was a male and a female, but the male officer was the one punching her.
Yeah, you let the female police officer handle that.
If that was the female police officer, I probably wouldn't feel a way as much as I do.
Right.
I still feel a way.
I do understand if she had a weapon or she was swinging,
but not in that situation. You're a grown ass man, you pushing
a 14 year old girl on the rim like that. Well the thing is that she was
really on the ground laying there. Yeah, she was on the ground,
not in that situation. She shouldn't even move. Not at all.
You're asking too much of a father, you're asking too much of
an uncle, you're asking too much of a big brother.
Absolutely. Just sit by and just watch that. Just to make sure
y'all know, 107,000 people
in Georgia have lost their right to
vote simply for not voting in past elections.
So that's the use it or lose it policy
that they are trying to make people ineligible to vote.
So I'm just giving y'all the heads up about what's happening.
Well, if voting don't matter,
they sure be trying to stop it like it does.
All right.
Now, last front page news.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent.
Hit us up right now.
Maybe you had a bad weekend or a great weekend.
Tell us why you're blessed.
Either or.
Phone lines are wide open.
The number again is 800-585-1051.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake your ass up.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
All right, well, let's open up the phone lines, 800-585-1051.
And we have to say good morning to our newest family member in Pittsburgh, PA.
We got new members of the club.
That's right.
Shout out to Wham-O, 100.1 and 107.3, Pittsburgh's home for hip-hop and R&B.
They just joined the family. So good morning, guys. Y'all put a clues box
for Pittsburgh. You know what I'm saying? Rest in peace to
Mac Miller. And I just want the Steelers to know
that I am a Dallas Cowboy fan. So I could give a
damn about your goddamn Steelers. Let's start there.
There we go. My name is Charlamagne Tha God. Greetings.
I'm a Giants fan, by the way. Alright, well
let's get into it. Hello, who's this?
Hello, this is Aaliyah. Hey, mama.
Get it off your chest. Hi, I just wanted to talk
about the difference between
people in the black community who are ignorant
and those who see
the ignorance around them. So you want to talk
about the difference between n****s and black people?
Okay, go. Okay, alright.
Alright, I just wanted to talk about
that you only see ignorance from the outside.
I think a lot of people get caught up in
calling ignorance out
and disparaging people for being what they think is ignorant
and not educating those people in the ignorance that they think they're in.
Okay.
Okay, I'm going to tell you something.
Chris Rock has a stand-up special called Bring the Pain.
It's classic.
You should watch it.
It's this one part called versus black people.
He explains it much better than you just did.
Thank you, Mama.
She made an effort.
Hello, who's this?
Yeah, this is Kyle. I want to talk about the Georgia law where if you just did. Thank you, Mama. She made an effort. Hello, who's this? Yeah, this is Kyle.
I want to talk about the Georgia law where
if you use it to lose a vote, I think
that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
Yeah, I think, yes.
I think, man, it upsets me.
You know what I'm saying? Our ancestors, they fought
for this, but I understand that we
should vote every time, but no.
Like in the last time, last
presidential election, it was a lot of people that just didn't like the two candidates.
I mean, you just didn't want to vote.
But for them to lose it over something like that, I think it's stupid.
I just want the record to show that all of those people who sat out the last election,
it's your fault that you have the current celebrity in chief in the White House.
Hello, who's this?
Yes, this is Fred from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, checking in with you.
What's up, Fred?
We ain't hear from you in a long time.
Why you sound so down, Fred?
You do sound depressed.
Because it's good morning, breakfast club.
It's a bittersweet thing.
You know, I stopped calling.
I used to call in every week and talk about different chicks I'd be trying to smash.
Oh, Lord.
Brother Envy, you know, don't disrespect.
You a fly brother.
I wish I could have your life, brother.
But that was weird.
And the only thing weird about me is my bank account because I ain't got enough money in it. But Trav
called up here talking about sucking s*** and everything
is all good. I'm trying to figure out what's going on.
Why are you comparing yourself to Trav, Fred?
Maybe you might want to try that then if that's what you
think will make your life better.
Why are you comparing yourself to Trav?
Maybe it's just people in this room who enjoy conversations
about sucking s*** more than they do about
Fred getting some poom poom. Because Fred ain't
ever get no poom poom. I was just calling and saying that.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm not weird.
I'm just trying to smash your picture.
All I'm trying to say is
Travis actually getting action.
You talking about trying to get action.
That's the difference.
That is true.
You know what I mean?
Yes, sir.
I understand.
I love y'all.
Y'all have fun.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, come on.
Don't be depressed now, Fred.
You're going to get some poom poom one day, brother.
Just be a little less creepy.
That's all.
Yeah, because you're very creepy.
Oh, my goodness.
Big Chocolate. Yo, Big Chocolate. Toast Sucker. What's all. Yeah, because you're very creepy. Oh, my goodness. Big chocolate.
Yo, big chocolate.
Toast sucker, what's up?

Never in the history of life

What's going on?
Where's Trav?
I want to invite you all
to a great Halloween party
and I'm going to do it
in my adult cartoon voice.
Tell me what you think, okay?
Hey, yo.
It's Crazy Carl, the crackhead.
You're all invited
to my crack house Halloween party.
Please bring some candles because we have no lights in the crack house.
And can I take a shower with Angela E for an hour?
All right.
Now, see, here's the problem.
Yeah, everything.
Angela E don't take showers.
That's the problem.
No, what's wrong with you?
Creepy, man.
You sound creepy, too.
Why do I sound so creepy?
I don't know what you guys are attracting or what the laws of attraction are up here.
Yeah, Big Fred the Toast Sucker.
What's his name?
Who is that?
No, Fred's from Milwaukee.
Whatever the Toast Sucker name is.
Big Chocolate.
Yeah, it sounds like he's hosting a pedophile palace.
That's what it sounds like to me.
My goodness.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up now.
It's The Breakfast Club.

Yep, Utah. I'm teaching out of Ohio though

You know what I'm saying?
You sound like you from Brooklyn.
Yeah, you sound like you got an attitude because of that.
I'm from the Bronx.
But guess what?
Guess what?
It's funny because a year before, I met one of her friends in Jamaica.
You know what I'm saying?
And it was easy to go down just like that.
So I'm spending all this money, and you're telling me you don't feel comfortable?
I'm just going to leave you there.
Goodbye.
You know what I'm saying?
Listen, she was trying to spend some time with you
to see if she would like you enough to do that.
What's wrong with that?
Kind of foul, bro.
That's real foul.
Nah, man.
These cats not even taking these girls nowhere nowadays.
I'm spending all that money.
My brother, just because you spend money on a young lady and take her somewhere does not mean that you are guaranteed the poom poom, sir.
It's all I mean.
I'm Jamaican.
I need that poom.
Oh, my God.
You need to carry some lotion with you, man.
She made the right move then.
Did you at least get one of those rooms with the champagne glass you could take a bath in?
Of course.
That's what I'm trying to tell you.

I can invite my real boyfriend.
Oh, really?
You know I'm Jamaican.
Don't do that.
You're lame, bro, man.
You're real lame.
Now, I do agree.
I would much rather him leave
than, you know,
do something stupid.
You know what I'm saying?
But, you know.
Listen, she dodged a bullet.
That much of Uber is from the Bronx to the Poconos?
It has to be at least $250.
Sheesh.

But I'm pissed.
First of all, I'm blessed because I'm alive and I'm working.

And he thinks that he can just come in,
work for three hours,
and we and him work together.
We do this big order,
and he just thinks that he can work for three hours
and sit down for the rest of the day
and not supposed to pick up his slack,

Nayee, we got rumors on the way?
Well, this was a surprise for a lot of people.
Netflix has pulled the plug on a couple of shows.
We'll tell you what they are.
All right, we'll get into all that when we come back.
You better not be Queen of the South. Did they pull it
on Queen of the South? Just tune in.
Queen of the South comes on USA. Yeah, but
Netflix runs it as well.
Well, keep it locked. Breakfast Club, good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ
MV Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Netflix.
She's spilling the tea.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, last week, Netflix canceled Iron Fist,
and this week they have pulled the plug on Luke Cage.
Now, that came as a surprise for a lot of people
because it seems like people really enjoy watching Luke Cage.
I thought so.
And they had even been working on the scripts and everything for season three.
So people thought it was definitely going to happen.
But it turns out that it's not going to happen.
Well, Luke Cage season two was trash.
Was it?
Yeah.
And I knew from the moment I saw Luke Cage dabbing that it wasn't going to be good.
Luke Cage dabbed?
Yes, he definitely dabbed.
The best part of Luke Cage season two was Misty Night.
Everything else sucked.
Simone Missick.
Yeah, Simone Missick.
But I think that it'll be back
because Disney is launching its own streaming service,
so they're probably taking all the Marvel properties
with them over there.
Well, the rumors are that the characters
will continue on Marvel TV in some capacity,
but they don't know how that's going to happen yet.
They're saying that it's not because of viewership, though.
They feel like it more has to do with creative differences and also because they could not
agree on terms for a third season.
So they're saying it wasn't because people weren't watching.
And with social media responding, it seems like people were upset about the show not
coming back.
And, you know, Netflix has Netflix has defenders that they can still put Luke Cage on Jessica
Jones.
I'm sure he'll make appearances on that.
And it's also very expensive, by the way.
All these Marvel shows on Netflix, they're very costly to make.
So that's part of the issues.
They have to overperform in viewership because of how expensive it is.
When it comes to Luke Cage season two, they definitely didn't spend no money on real Jamaicans for season two.
Was that bad?
They had all them Jamaicans running around Brooklyn.
All right, all those people with those terrible Jamaican accents.
Now, another show that was canceled on Netflix was
All About the Washingtons, which was a series
that Reverend Runner was doing.
Him and his wife, Justine Simmons, they were in
a scripted capacity, and
I guess just the show didn't get good
reviews. It was just a one season,
and they actually cut that show as well.
Never watched it. Does that mean that they take it off the server once they cancel it?
I don't know if the old season still shows up.
The first season still shows up.
Is the Get Down still on there?
I don't even know.
I don't even know.
All right.
Well, Steph Curry is going to be executive producing a movie.
It's a faith-based drama about John Smith, who is a 14-year-old who was declared legally dead after falling through ice, but he ended up surviving.
Now, Steph Curry said John's story is nothing short of incredible.
It's a story about the power of prayer and perseverance and one I immediately connected to.
After reading the script, I knew I wanted to be a part of bringing it to life on screen.
The movie is called Breakthrough.
Okay.
Curb Your Enthusiasm, in the meantime, has started shooting season 10.
Y'all know I love that show.
Now, production was supposed to start in the spring,
but it was stalled for whatever reason.
But Curb Your Enthusiasm has dropped every two years
between 2005 and 2011,
and they did a whole extended hiatus after season eight,
but now it's going to be coming back.
So I'm excited that they started filming
a new season of Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Yeah, didn't they stop shooting that show?
Then they brought it back for two more seasons, I guess?
Yeah, it was a long hiatus, and then he did bring the show back.
Now, something else that was canceled, an Ashanti concert.
Now, I don't know if you guys saw this, but what they are saying is
the concert was canceled after they sold only 24 tickets.
And Lonnie Love was trying to shed some light on what really happened.
She said the university is shady for doing this.
She came on as a last-minute replacement.
They could have just canceled without the excuse.
According to other reports, there were all kinds of issues.
Originally, Tiana Taylor was booked, but then she pulled out at the last minute.
That's when they brought Ashanti on, and she said that they're going to make it happen.
But then I guess there were some issues with the school, with the server,
and selling the tickets also, so only 24
tickets were sold. How many tickets did the venue
hold, first of all? I'm sure probably a thousand.
How many tickets did they expect Ashanti to show?
I don't get it. Well, it was in Long Island
where she's from. She's from Long Island.
They probably tired of seeing her. No.
I'm sure it was a problem with the servers. Ashanti's
good for way more than 24 tickets.
Let me stop because she blocked me on social media
again. 50 Cent posted, Ashanti show
canceled after only 24 tickets. So, wait
a minute. I thought I told everybody not to
F with this fool. I want the names and
social security of everybody who bought a ticket now.
And, yes.
50. Let it go, 50.
50 needs therapy. I mean, listen, I'm a cancer,
so I understand the
pettiness. If I don't like you, I won't even
bless you when you sneeze. But goddamn, 50.
He let it go.
He never stopped.
Ashanti, you catching residual bullets from Jaro B from 20 years ago?
Yes.
My God.
Now, the school posted a statement.
As an organization, we do our best to host programs for students
while providing diversity and inclusion.
However, we have struggled to execute certain aspects.
With the week before the concert, only 24 tickets are sold to students.
They tried to embarrass Ashanti.
That's what that was.
Plus them kids,
they don't appreciate Ashanti.
You know what I'm saying?
Ashanti is our era.
Them kids in college now
don't want to see no damn Ashanti.
Okay, we want to go out there
and see them.
Nah, they going to tour.
They're foolish.
Ashanti and Ja Rule
going to college tours.
What is the age demo?
College.
Ain't no college tour.
They said they didn't
go on college tours.
What college booked Ja Rule and Ashanti?
For homecomings maybe.
Exactly. For homecomings when us old people
be at some schools on the weekend.
Ain't no regular college booking no Ja Rule and Ashanti
just for a regular Wednesday. Yeah, you're right.
Knock it off. Alright, well I'm Angela Yee
and that is your rumor report.
Alright, alright. Thank you Miss
Yee. We got front page news when we come back?
Yes, we are going to talk about it.
Imagine you're on a flight and somebody is racist and demands that they don't want to sit next to you
because you are black and says all kinds of nasty things.
And then what happens?
You actually have to move your seat.
They didn't throw him off the plane?
We'll talk about it.
I didn't see that whole story.
They should have threw his ass off the plane.
We'll talk about it when we come back.
And also, Will Packer and nephew Tommy will be joining us next hour.
They have a new show on their own network called Ready to Love.
We'll kick it with them, so don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Stop.
Drop on the clues box for Pittsburgh, damn it.
Okay?
All right, there we go.
Sluice to Pittsburgh.
Whammo.
There we go.
We got a new station.
You got to join the club.
We got a new clock.
That's right.
Did anybody tell Revolt?
Revolt has no clue.
They didn't know.
Hey, Breakfast Club producers, get on your jobs.
Good morning, Revolt.
Yes, good morning, Revolt.
All right, well, let's get into some front page news.
Now, let's start with sports.
Football, all right.
Chargers beat the Titans 2019.
The Patriots beat the Bears 38-31.
Colts beat the Bills 37-5.
Texans beat the Jaguars 20-7.
Lions beat the Dolphins 32-21.
The Vikings beat the Jets 37-17. The Panthers, they beat the Eaglesuars 20-7. Lions beat the Dolphins 32-21. The Vikings beat the Jets 37-17.
The Panthers, they beat the Eagles 21-17.
Buccaneers beat the Browns in overtime 26-23.
The Saints beat the Ravens 24-23.
The Rams beat the 49ers 39-10.
And the Redskins beat the Cowboys 27-10.
Who cares?
Who's watching football anyway?
I'm with Cap.
Your team sucks.
All right.
Mine does too.
I was about to say.
How dare you?
We play tonight though.
You wouldn't know because you don't watch.
I wouldn't know if my team sucks.
I wouldn't know if my team's 3-3.
I ain't been watching no football.
All right.
Now.
Wait, hold on.
And the World Series is Tuesday at 8-10.
The Dodgers take on the Boston Red Sox.
Now, imagine you're on a flight and a man says to you, you are an ugly black bastard
and doesn't want to sit next to you.
What do you think should happen? Well, this is what happens.
So you're punched in his white face. On a Ryan
airplane.
I will carry on.
I have no time with this ugly
bastard.
We're directly to Peru, okay?
You have to come down.
Throw him off the flight.
That Michelle Obama quote got some of y'all thinking life is sweet.
What was an elderly black woman that he was saying this to?
Oh, see? Where was her grandson?
And that flight was going from Barcelona, Spain to London.
Now, they should have thrown him off the flight.
That's what I would have thought would have happened.
But instead, they actually moved the woman from her seat.
The passenger threatened to push the woman to another seat if she didn't move,
and it was absolutely disgusting and despicable.
They did call the flight attendant.
They should have called the captain.
They should have escorted the man off the plane, but they didn't.
Now, Ryanair did release a statement.
They said, we are aware of the video and have reported this matter to Essex police.
They did not comment further, but they did move the woman,
and he did manage to still stay on the flight.
Michelle Obama said, when they go low, we go
high. Uncle Charlotte says, when they go low,
sometimes you gotta take it to the floor with them.
He should've got his ass whooped. If you see an older
black woman on a flight like that and you see somebody
disrespecting them like that in any way, shape
or form, you gotta punch that person in the
face. Whether that person is related to you
or not. I don't know about punching in the face, but
you definitely gotta protect it. He should have been thrown off that flight.
Even if you don't punch him in the face, you got to put this
fear of black God into
that white devil. There you go.
This is crazy. And it was hard
for the woman to move because she's elderly. She has
arthritis. So it was even
more difficult for her to get out of the seat. The people on the plane
are supposed to, you know, look
out for that older woman before they look out
for that racist bigot sitting next to her.
Disgusting.
I would have sat right next to him, too.
The whole flight, right next to him.
Made him so uncomfortable.
They should have kicked him off the plane.
He shouldn't have been on the plane at all, period.
All right, now imagine this.
This happened in Houston, Texas.
Eight-year-old, your son is being bullied, right?
So you want to go and confront the bully and deal with the bully because the school's not doing anything.
We've been talking about bullying a lot up here on The Breakfast Club.
Well, a local father in Houston, Aubrey, actually sat down and had a heart-to-heart conversation with the accused bully.
And he did take the bully out.
And he did that with permission from the parents, by the way.
Now, here's what happened.
What I told y'all about Jordan's bully, you know what I'm saying? How he needed some help.
Put your shoulders back.
Stick your chest up.
Sing it!
Okay, low!
Let me see what you're looking like.
Ooh!
Let me see your fresh.
Your fresh right there.
Let me see your feet.
Hey.
Hey.
So he actually took him shopping because it turns out the young man was homeless
and didn't really have any clothes, was having a difficult time at home.
And so he said, I came with the energy that he was ready to receive
because a lot of times just because you want to talk to me
doesn't mean I want to talk to you, but I think he just wanted, he was ready to talk.
He knew that I cared.
He saw it in my eyes.
So he actually took him on a shopping trip.
And now the two sons are friends with each other.
Now he gets bullied the next day with some
fresh clothes on. Well now the two kids
are friends. Now you can't bully my kid in the clothes I bought you.
Now you can bully my kid with the clothes I bought you.
You're just going to bully my kid in the clothes I bought you?
That's just disrespectful. It's almost like he
asked himself, what would Kanye West do?
He decided to show his bully love.
He decided to hug his bully
and show him love.
Well, a lot of times you don't know what's going on with these kids at home.
And kids act a certain way because of certain issues that they're going through.
So he managed to talk to this young man, find out what was going on with him at home.
Turns out he was homeless.
And that was part of the reason why he was reacting the way that he did.
He's only eight years old.
I mean, I get it.
I'm a little conflicted.
I'm a little conflicted, too. It feels like you're rewarding the bad that he did. He's only eight years old. I mean, I get it. I'm a little conflicted, though. I'm a little conflicted, too.
Because it feels like
you're rewarding the bad behavior.
Exactly.
But I get the fact of,
you know what,
not really knowing
where this dude may be coming from,
so you show him some love
because you understand
the situation.
Yeah, I get it.
I can see it.
The next week where he don't
have a haircut
and then he mad again,
I just don't know.
I'm kind of conflicted
because it's, you know,
for my son,
my son might feel a way like,
damn, this kid's bullying me
and you go take him shopping. That is true, too, though. What happens when, you know, for my son, my son might feel a way like, damn, this kid's bullying me and you go take him shopping.
That is true too, though.
What happens when, you know, them clothes is old now and them shoes he bought is old?
He go back to bullying, right?
Exactly.
You know what I mean?
Listen, he showed this young man some love.
The kid actually said he was getting bullied because he didn't have any clothes and because
he was homeless.
So now somebody came and told you, you know, stick your chest out, be proud, be confident.
And he helped him out.
So whenever he needs new clothes, is he going to bully people?
Well, I don't know what's going to happen, but maybe this is life changing for him.
Listen, I can see it both ways.
This could potentially change his life.
I can see it both ways, too.
But it's worth the effort.
It's definitely worth the effort.
The kid is eight.
You know what I'm saying?
You can always repair an eight-year-old.
He's only eight years old.
Like, you can teach an eight-year-old the proper way to do things.
You can teach an eight-year year old That bullying is not correct
It could go that way
Or it could go
Like you said
I need more clothes
Alright I'm going to
Bully this kid again
And see if I get more clothes again
You don't know
Or maybe he just needs
A father figure
That's the other thing
We don't know if this
Little 8 year old kid
Got a father in the house
Maybe he just needs
A father figure
You know how difficult
It probably is to be
8 living in a homeless shelter
Having to go to school
And kids are making fun of you
Listen you might change
That boy's life
I hope he does
You know
10 years from now He might remember this moment And be like I hope he does. You know? Ten years from now,
he might remember this moment
and be like,
I remember the moment
when you came into my life,
became a father figure.
I thought it was very sweet.
Me and your son
became best friends.
You know what I mean?
All right.
I'm not mad at it.
And that might be
a lesson learned
for everybody in the class.
Plus he had
a little Duval playing,
you know what I'm saying?
That's all you heard.
That's all you heard.
That's all you heard.
I'm going to close
the bomb for you.
All right.
Well, that's front page news.
Now, when we come back, we have Will Pack in the building now.
Yes.
Black Hollywood gatekeeper.
Producer of Girls Trip, Think Like a Man, and so many different movies.
And also, Nephew Tommy.
They got a new show on their own network called Ready to Love.
So we're going to kick it with them when we come back.
So don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast
Club. We got a special guest in the
building. Two special guests. Two special guests.
Will Packer. Yo. And Nephew Tommy.
Hey. What's up, guys?
What's up, y'all? Now, y'all are here.
You have a dating show.
Well, first of all, don't do that. Don't say
whoa.
For the love of
Will and Tommy.
Will and Tommy came on The love of Will and Tommy.
To come out right now. It did not come out right.
Wait a minute.
Let's start that over.
So you two guys have got a dating show.
I'm producing.
There's nothing wrong with that.
It's in Atlanta.
Of course there's nothing wrong with that.
And it's in Atlanta.
It just got worse.
We have a reality dating show set in Atlanta. I course there's nothing wrong with it. And it's in Atlanta. It just got worse. Exactly. I have a reality dating show
set in Atlanta.
Set in Atlanta.
I'll put this in
Tommy and Kofi.
It's called Ready to Love.
I'm going to lie.
Let's talk about this show.
It's called Ready to Love.
Yeah.
Explain the show a little bit.
Yo, all right.
So basically,
this is a little bit different
than every other dating show you've seen.
All right?
So this one is
Through the Minds of Men.
Y'all remember I did
Thing Like a Man, right?
Yes.
Which is based on Steve Harvey's book.
And actually,
Tommy had a cameo in Thing Like a Man.
Yep.
And I got a lot of feedback that ladies like the fact that, you know, they got to hear what men were thinking.
And I actually have a new movie coming out called What Men Want.
What Men Want.
Where Taraji can hear the thoughts of men.
So I'm in that zone right now.
That's where I'm at, right?
So, like, you know, I'm telling all the secrets.
And then the ladies know what guys are thinking. So Tommy's hosting this show where we take 20 singles in Atlanta
and we eliminate them.
The women get a chance to eliminate the men that they don't like.
The men get a chance to eliminate the women they don't like
until we boil down to just three couples left.
Six left. Six people left.
Every show, Tommy takes the men away from the women
and they just let it rip.
No holds barred. They say what they really think about these away from the women, and they just let it rip. No holds barred.
They say what they really think about these women when the women aren't around.
So it's the type of show that you watch if you want to know.
Like, you're a lady that's dating out there in the world, and you're like, yo, I don't know.
What am I doing wrong?
Why didn't I call me back?
What's happening?
What's the situation?
Like, the men are keeping it real.
Like, super, super not politically correct, being real honest about what it is that they feel about the women in dating situations.
Now, how did you find these people
to appear on the show?
Stuff.
Well, first, let me clarify.
There was a background check.
Let's get that straight.
There was a background check.
So no murderers, no crazy people.
When you say, you know,
Oprah Winfrey Network and Will Packers
casting in Atlanta,
we got a lot of people that came.
And also, it's Atlanta.
Women in Atlanta need help finding a man because a lot of men
in Atlanta are, you know, not looking
for women.
It was
20 to 1.
Is it okay if a man
used to be gay but now
he's decided... What does that mean? That means that there's
gay and then there's
Atlanta straight.
Like they've dated
men in the past.
What is Atlanta straight?
Atlanta straight means
that you can just
like turn around
and see your boyfriend
and all.
What's that mean?
That means you went
across the street
and came back?
There you go.
That's all.
Because you know
this whole gender
fluidity thing
is what's happening
now with the kids.
Sure.
Absolutely.
I should probably
clarify this show
is these people
are in their 30s.
They know what they want. So it's a little bit different than people in their 20s. I don't know what show is These people are in their 30s Like they know what they want
So it's a little bit different
Than like people in their 20s
Like I don't know what that is
When you dating in your 20s
You just trying out stuff
You know what I'm saying
You're having fun
Yeah
These people
They kind of know what they want
This is grown folks
They better settle down
30s, that's some 40s
Yeah, oh yeah
That's some 40s
Some people that's got kids
That's been married
Like these are real people
You know what I'm saying
Trying to figure it out
But they know what they want
So no fighting on the show, none of that stuff.
There's a little bit of drama now.
There's some tension.
And by the way, because the women
get to decide which of the men get to stay on the show.
So with you guys, you got the
politics in the background where you might have
one of the ladies that's feeling you and the other ladies
is like, well, he ain't giving me no love.
So that's your man, but not mine. I'm going to vote him
off the show.
Got you.
So you have those kind of behind-the-scenes machinations that happen with people trying to figure out
how to make it to the end
in order to find their true soulmate.
Ladies get to actually see who they are.
You start out with 12 ladies.
So actually, just like in Girl Strip,
ladies were able to sit back and say,
oh my God, that's my girl right there.
Oh my God, that's me.
In this 12, you actually get to say, you know what, that's me,
and I've been doing the same thing,
or even the things that they've been doing in relationships
that haven't been working out.
That's why they're on the show, because it hasn't been working out,
and you come here to find love.
And let me ask the guys in the room,
what are some reasons that you wouldn't want to date a woman?
Just some generic reasons and things that have happened.
I'm married.
Well, obviously not.
Good answer, brother.
High five. Number one answer. But besides that,'m married. Well, obviously not. Good answer, brother. High five.
Number one answer.
But besides that.
I'm married.
And by the way, for a lot of men, that doesn't stop them.
But besides that, what are some reasons that you would say a woman is just not it for you?
Yeah.
Controlling.
Demanding.
Crazy.
Crazy is always a no.
What is crazy?
Because guys use that word a lot.
It's usually a crazy woman that asks that question.
Because I just want to say, y'all like crazy women.
All your tires flat, your windows busted out your car.
What is crazy?
And y'all still stay with her.
You know, we like women that are, I think, spontaneous and fun.
But there's always a flip side to that.
You know what I'm saying?
So flat tires are good.
No, it's not good.
I mean, you know what I'm saying? Like, that are good. No, it's not good. I mean, you know what I'm saying?
Like, that's the thing with, you know, I will also say superficial, right?
Because we live in an environment now where it's all about what you can show.
And Atlanta's one of those markets.
You know a lot of markets like that, but Atlanta's definitely about what you got.
What do you have and what you can show?
That's one of the things we get into on the show because everybody's front.
But there's a lot of crazy ones out there.
If I take the trash out and you in the trash, that's pretty much it.
We got an issue right here.
I don't mind a little crazy, though,
because a little crazy is what keeps us in check.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I know my wife is a little crazy.
All right.
See, guys like crazy women.
Y'all saying you don't want to leave.
No, I'm a crazy woman.
I'm a little crazy.
What's a little crazy?
Most crazies are the sexiest ones, though.
Right.
See, you want her in the trash.
She know where the gun at.
She'll grab it.
You know what I'm saying?
That's all.
Guys, I feel like y'all setting a bad example.
I feel like there's a woman home right now
with a box of Q-tips and a shank
waiting for a man to come home like,
yep, he gonna love me.
I encourage women to not act crazy.
All right, we got more with film producer Will Packer and nephew Tommy.
When we come back, so don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
We have film producer Will Packer.
He's done Girls Trip, Ride Along, Think Like a Man, and nephew Tommy in the building.
They have a new show on their own network called Ready to Love.
Now, on the show, you got a bunch of characters.
You got entrepreneurs.
You got a pastor.
You got a guy that owns his, it says, a smile, black man smile.
Who is the hardest to work with as far as the men is concerned,
and who is the hardest as far as the women are concerned?
Oh, my God.
It must be a story.
I see y'all looking at each other.
Oh, my God.
There's a young brother named Aaron.
Okay.
And Aaron is, you know.
Ketaro, what's his name?
What's his last name?
What's Aaron's last name? He's a realtor.
He's a real estate entrepreneur.
And Aaron is, you know...
First of all, he's a real estate entrepreneur.
So you know, he takes up by black men in Atlanta.
We will create a title.
Absolutely.
You bought one house.
No, no, go look at one house.
He's not a developer.
That sounds like Atlanta straight. Real estate entrepreneur. No, no, go look at one house. He's not a developer.
That sounds like Atlanta straight.
Real estate entrepreneur.
What is that?
He can't seem to make up his mind.
You know what I mean?
What you mean?
If he wants a man or a woman?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
He can't seem to make up his mind. Like, he'll tell eight, nine different ladies on the show that you're the one.
And now you got them running away thinking, oh, me and Aaron are a connection.
So when Aaron gets back to me, I'm like,
hey, man, you're running game, brother,
because that's my job is to crack the whip
and keep these guys in shape.
And I'm like, you're just running game.
You can't make up your mind.
You can't make a decision.
I said, this is about you making a decision.
You're in your 30s now,
so let's kill what you was doing in the 20s.
You're in your 30s.
Make some decisions.
Get your mind right.
And every time Aaron go out and come back to me,
oh my God, it's a whole different story.
Or it's a different lady.
Because he keeps switching.
He also didn't want to let him down.
He's that guy, like a lot of guys,
that especially when you have
a lot of women to choose
from, you don't want to really make the
choice. And you also don't want to hurt feelings.
And you don't want to be real with them and say,
listen, I like you a lot.
We have a great sexual relationship.
We got good chemistry, but you're not the one for me.
So they were having sex on the show?
Listen, you got to watch the show.
You got to watch the show.
That's a yes.
You got to watch the show.
Now, what about on the ladies' side?
Who's hard to work with on the ladies' side or difficult?
None of them because women aren't difficult.
Oh, come on, Yee.
Come on.
Black men don't cheat. It's the same when it ends. None of them because women aren't difficult. Oh, come on, Yee. Come on. What?
Black men don't cheat. It's the same one it is.
We're crazy men.
We got some that are
a little bit difficult,
create a little bit of tension,
but that's, you know,
that's expected.
Like who?
You're looking at,
you're pulling them up.
Yeah, I'm looking at the face.
Shantae.
Shantae Duncan.
There you go.
All right, she's an actor,
an actress.
Yeah, you know that's bad,
right?
Why is she extra? I don't even know how that's bad right there. Why is she extra?
I don't even know how she got on the show.
Why is she difficult?
You know what?
You know what?
Just playing.
She's a little older.
She's no nonsense, actually.
Okay.
So when she feels like this is all a bunch of BS,
she just kind of lets you know what's going on.
Yeah.
Well, that sounds perfect.
And there's nothing wrong with that.
But there's also, I think she felt like none of these guys
are coming on to me the way I
want them to come on to me. So you feel a little
slighted. Or maybe these other
ladies, am I wrong on this, right?
Or maybe these other ladies are
a little younger, a little bit more
shapely or maybe, I don't know.
She big, man.
That's what it sounds like.
You can only see chin-ups.
We got all the shapes
and sizes
and skin tones,
personalities,
you know.
They sexy.
All of them sexy.
Yeah, it's good-looking people,
but it's very competitive.
The show does a good job
of creating like a microcosm
of what it's like
in the real world
and the way that it's
so competitive out there.
Dating these days
is so hard.
You know,
Instagram,
everybody's putting on
the front and just,
you know,
showing the perfect picture, the perfect
angle, what have you. And so when you break
down all those barriers and say, listen, let's get real
and see if we can make a real connection.
And other people try to do the same. It creates a competition.
It was a competition. You had some
people on the show that stood out.
The guys wanted, or the ladies wanted.
And so they were
competing. But it started out,
the ladies started out, oh, I love all these ladies.
We are great.
We are friends.
We're all friends.
We all ride together.
We all ride together.
And boy, you get around week four or five, it's like, everybody for yourself.
How was the brotherhood?
Did the men do that?
They bonded pretty well.
So they weren't.
They bonded pretty well.
But there was still tension because, you know, if this one guy likes this particular lady
and you know it, but your boy is now going out with her on a date,
you feel a little slighted over here.
Are all the men from Atlanta?
Yeah.
All the singles.
So did you have to break up any Atlanta straight action going on maybe?
Between the guys?
Yes, between the guys.
Why do you keep making this a show?
Because he's trying to decide if he wants to watch it.
That's what it's dependent on.
I want to be on the show.
Everybody's straight, though.
Straight or Atlanta's great?
Straight, straight.
Straight, straight.
This is on the Oprah Winfrey Network.
It's all good.
We embrace everybody.
This isn't that particular show.
So you got doctors on the show.
You have a doctor on the show?
Yeah.
Now, how is she on the show?
And I see you got a DJ
on the show as well.
Yeah, see,
I'm going to let you talk
about Dr. Lexi.
I'm not sure what kind
of doctor she was.
Dr. Dre.
We're both still wondering
what kind of doctor.
So you didn't check
the credentials?
I didn't.
All I saw was doctor.
I didn't know
what you doctored in. It's definitely not a medical doctor. Everybody you didn't check the credentials? I didn't. All I saw was doctor. I didn't know what you doctored in.
It's definitely not a medical
doctor. Everybody had to go through a very extensive
background check.
We tried to weed out the crates as much as
possible. We had a dude that showed
up for the audition
who we found out
was married. So he was
trying to get on the single people dating
show. You can't make this up.
He told his wife
that he was going to the store.
Lord have mercy.
And slid up in the audition.
And we were trying to explain,
brother, this is not,
this is for singles.
And he was like,
nah, she cool.
Like, you know,
I don't know.
I like her.
I don't know if I love her.
Let me just,
I'm looking for love too.
We was like, okay.
But we see some of the audition process, because I'm sure that's hilarious.
Like the American Idol contestants.
Yes, absolutely.
You see that in the background.
If you go on, look on OWN, there's an all-access special where you see kind of how we found
these people and weeded them out.
You know what I was surprised at, though, Yee?
There actually are a lot of single men in Atlanta who actually are looking for women.
Like, I will say that.
Like, I was.
Do they come outside? It was a quality group that we Like, I will say that. Like, I was. Do they come outside?
It was a quality group that we put.
And women say that all the time to me.
Like, where they at?
You know what?
We actually found a quality group of men who are single,
who are a variety of backgrounds.
Like, everybody doesn't drive a Porsche.
You know what I mean?
We got a guy that has a trucking business.
And he's like, you know, blue-collar guy, grimy, greasy all the time.
Then we had some guys that were like, you know, executives.
And he had a pastor.
The pastor drives a Porsche.
The pastor drives a Porsche.
Y'all got a pastor on the show?
Yeah, yeah.
The pastor was telling the women that he wanted to wait to have sex, and everybody wasn't
with that.
Why the pastor got to look for love?
He got a church.
What does that mean?
You think he's going to look for love at the church?
Yes.
No.
S***.
He needed, he need this show more than anybody.
Can you imagine being a pastor and you trying to, like, date?
Like, who?
The congregation?
Yes.
No, you can't do that.
Them women that's bringing you over for Sunday dinner, cooking for you, bringing you food.
That's the worst.
You can't do that.
Damn.
I can only imagine being a pastor trying to, like, find that first lady.
That level of pressure.
You got to step away from the church to go find her.
You don't want that first lady pressure.
I wonder how his flock will take him now that he's on reality TV, though. I don't pressure. You got to step away from the church to go fast. You don't want that first lady pressure. I wonder how his flock
will take him now
that he's on reality TV, though.
I don't know.
He got a real church, too.
He got a nice situation.
Yeah, we about to see.
Yeah, we're going to see.
See, that's crazy
because you don't want
to really vote the pastor off,
but you know,
because if you go to heaven
for voting the pastor off,
you can't.
You can just vote him off.
You tell him God told you to do it.
No, God told me to vote you off.
God's will.
Return the attorney.
God's plan.
These women did not. They was honest. Vote him was real. God's plan. These women did not.
They was honest.
Vote him off immediately.
Let's see.
Damn it, man.
All right, we got more with Will Packer and Nephew Tommy.
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 have film producer Will Packer and radio host Nephew Tommy in the building.
Charlamagne?
Will, why reality TV at this point?
You're a big film director, number one.
I mean, number one, you got now 10?
10.
I mean, who counts such things?
I don't know if anybody keeps track, but they're 10 years, just so you know.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
You know, we're across the board, man.
You know what I mean?
I think that right now, if you're creating content, you need to be able to do it in all
mediums.
I'm not just the guy that just does, like, you know.
Number one movies.
Well, I do.
Huge movies.
You should do those.
Right.
But not just, you know, theatricals.
I'm also doing some scripted television.
I'm doing digital.
Like, I got a streaming show that's going to come out.
You have that much time?
It feels like you have no time.
He has a great staff.
Hey, Shayla.
My staff is amazing.
That's right.
Shay counting the billing.
You're only strong as a team around you, you know, but we go hard.
My key's still working in Hollywood.
I got to keep going in that door as long as my key works.
One day my key might not work, so I've got to get it while I can.
Now, well, you spoke on having a key.
You are a gatekeeper.
Oh, boy.
Here it comes.
Here it comes.
Here it comes.
Oh, boy.
I want to know, who was your gatekeeper?
Who let you in?
Yeah, my first internship coming straight
out of college, out of FAMU,
was with the Hudlin brothers, Warrington Reginald
Hudlin, and they were shooting a movie
for Miramax. They let me get on the set. I had actually already
done a little independent movie called Chocolate City
on my own at that point, but they let me
go on, and I was the guy that
at FAMU, I was the guy,
I was an alpha, and I was like the
big SGA guy, and I had shot a movie.
And I went to this movie set, and I had to be like the lowest of the low.
I was the guy that was like wrangling the cables, grabbing coffee for the DP.
Listen, and I'll tell you, and then people listening right now that are at a certain level
and trying to figure out how to get to the next level, sometimes you got to go down to come up.
So I thought I was the guy coming out of college,
and in some respects I was.
But in this industry, I didn't have that pedigree.
So I had to go in and grind and do everything I had to do
and go get that coffee and wrangle those cables and do all of that
with people that I felt like, you know what?
Why am I working for them?
Look, I got an engineering degree.
I've done this.
I've done that.
But no, it didn't matter.
In that industry, I needed to prove myself.
And some people aren't willing to do that, but it worked out for me.
And some people on that set treated me like I was the lowest person on the set.
And other people treated me with respect, like I was a young brother trying to get in the game.
And I never forgot.
And to this day, to a man, everybody on that movie has asked me for a job one way or another.
And I remember those that treated me like I was just this guy
who wasn't going to be nothing.
I remember those
who treated me with respect.
So you don't lock them
out of the gate, basically.
I don't try to lock anybody out.
You know,
I try to make sure
that I'm working
with the best people possible
who are willing to work
and earn it
because I'm only as strong
as the people that I put on.
This is my gatekeeper.
I thought Steve Harvey
was your gatekeeper.
Yeah, that's another gate.
There's a lot of gates. It is a lot of gates. So y'all believe in the concept of gatekeepers. I thought Steve Harvey was your gatekeeper. Yeah, that's another gate. There's a lot of gates.
It is a lot of gates. So y'all believe in the
concept of gatekeepers. I don't know where you're
going with this. What do you think of the concept of
gatekeepers? Everybody enters somehow. Well, I believe
in the concept of
opportunities in a very
competitive business and that
none of us do it by ourselves for sure.
I believe that. And I believe that those of us
that have had some success do have a responsibility to pay that back as opportunities have been granted to us.
Mike has basically said that some people, like he said, you know, guys like Kevin Hart are letting who they want in and keeping certain people out.
But how can you keep anyone out?
At the end of the day, you define your own success.
I'm not responsible for your success or your success or Tommy's
success. Now, I can certainly say,
yo, I'm looking for a host for this show. Tommy,
I think you'd be great. And that's an opportunity
for him. But even if I say, Tommy, I would never
hire you as a host. I have not
determined his success. I have not
determined his value. I have not
stopped him. I have not said your career
is over. It don't matter who I am or how powerful I
think I am or how powerful other people think I am. It's up to you to define success for yourself and for you to say, I have not said your career is over. It don't matter who I am or how powerful I think I am or how powerful other people think I am.
It's up to you to define success for yourself and for you to say I'm worth it.
I love Epps.
Whoever deserves it.
Epps is my guy.
Nobody's stopping Epps.
Epps can go out and get it however he wants, and he does.
But I think your talent speaks for itself.
If you got it, you're going to rise.
It's going to come to you.
It might not come when you want it, but it's going to come.
You know?
And I'm grateful for you hosting me.
Let me be the host.
Well, it's also a relationship-driven business.
Exactly.
You and I have an amazing relationship.
Exactly.
That's the other thing.
You got a lot of people that's out here, and they do not value relationships.
In a business where you need to have relationships.
Period.
Did you get backlash as well when Uncle Steve visited Donald Trump?
I did.
I got a lot of it.
Really?
I got a lot of it.
And it all trickles down.
You know, he did something
that he thought was good at that time
and he regrets it now.
You know what I'm saying? But I mean, he made a
decision at that time that this is what I think we
should do. He wanted to go up and talk about
housing and
you know, it backlashed on him.
And now when he looks back and sees the whole
activity and the things that Trump is doing
now, he's like, I should have never tried to go talk to this cat.
But as being under him, you get the backlash.
What the hell your uncle doing?
Why don't you say something?
Hey, come on.
Do you care?
I back my brother regardless.
I back regardless.
I got you.
If I'm a ride or die with you, I'm a ride or die with you.
Plus, you know Steve's intentions.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He got good intentions.
Did you think it was a good idea when he went?
Or were you like, I don't know.
Did you try to stop him? Is this your fault, Tommy?
No, no.
You set this up.
No, no, no.
You know what? I thought he should have waited
until Barack Obama was
completely, I mean, we were
going through mourning for the fact that he was on his way
out of the White House, you know?
So I think it was a transition period.
So I think we could have waited
and maybe actually sit back
and see what Trump is going to do first
before we actually decide to holler.
Engage, right?
Yeah, you know, I thought so.
He was moving off the words of Barack Obama.
Barack Obama said you should reach across the aisle
to people that you disagree with.
That's what Steve said he was moving on.
Yeah, well, you know,
let's wait until should reach across the aisle to people that you disagree with. That's what Steve said he was moving on. Yeah, well, you know, let's wait until we reach across the aisle.
Now, Will, Hollywood Reporter's 100 Most Powerful Lists.
Crazy, man.
Does that mean anything to you?
Crazy.
Yeah, you know, it does.
It does.
Listen, I define my own success for sure, so I don't think I'm any more or less successful or important because I'm on that list.
But it's good to get validation within the industry that I work so hard in,
for sure.
And Night School, biggest comedy opening of the year, number one.
Congrats on that.
Yes, appreciate y'all.
Appreciate y'all, you know, letting us come up here
and let me bring Kev and Tiff, you know.
Y'all the most fearless morning show out there, no disrespect.
Y'all definitely allow folks within and outside of the industry to come up here and express views that your audience would never hear.
And I know y'all know that, but I just want to say it.
You all's audience, they get so much information that they do not get anywhere else.
They don't get it from CNN.
They don't get it from Fox.
They don't get it from Twitter.
They get it from here.
And they get to hear people give real insight,
whether they agree with it or not, that they do not get anywhere else.
So I just appreciate you all for the platform.
And for somebody like me that's always presenting content to consumers,
you give me a platform to allow Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish to come up here.
You know, in that interview, Kev had some things to get off his chest.
Y'all let him do that.
And by the way, y'all let him talk about his newest movie.
And we dropped Night School in a very competitive environment and we won.
Well, we appreciate you guys for joining us.
That's a promo.
And make sure you check out Ready to Love.
We definitely know you got it to promote.
That's why we let you talk.
We didn't say, yeah, promo.
Don't step on Will right now.
From the beginning to the promo.
No disrespect.
Ready to Love.
Make sure you check it out.
When can they check it out?
Yo, Tuesday.
Tuesday, what time?
Tuesday, 10 o'clock.
10 o'clock Tuesday.
10 o'clock on OWN.
Well, his nephew Tommy is well-packed.
Yeah, yeah.
Thank you, Tommy.
Now, don't move.
When we come back, we got rumors on the way.
Yee, what we talking about?
Yes, we'll be talking about a rapper who said he is now working on an R&B album.
Let's see if you're here for it.
All right, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
Rumors on the way. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Listen album. Let's see if you're here for it. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. Rumors on the way.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The Rumor Report.
Gossip.
Gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's The Rumor Report.
The Breakfast Club.
Well, Jay Prince sat down with TMZ,
and he had some words for Pusha T.
You see, Drake and Pusha T have reignited things,
and they're both going back and forth now with stories about
what happened, who really gave the information
about Drake having a baby.
Well, here's what Jay Prince is saying.
I don't consider this a beef
anymore, you know what I mean? Because
Pusha, he's like
an ant to us. We could smash him
anytime we choose to
if that's something we wanted to do, but that's
not the case here, you know.
I came involved to put this to rest, you know what I mean.
And as far as I'm concerned, you know, it's dead.
But, you know, it's just strictly an act of damage control.
But how's the damage control, though?
Pushing one to beef.
Pushing one to wrap beef.
That little, you know, if you look at it in a vacuum,
rap for rap,
Pusha won that beef.
So how's the damage control
on Pusha's part?
It seemed like Drake
was doing more damage control
on the shop than Pusha did
on Joe Budden's podcast.
Well, Jay Prince is saying
the feud is just over with
and he wants it to just go away.
So it would have kept going
if Drake, because Drake said
he had a song ready to go,
he would have put that out.
So that was his way
of trying to say.
It would have been over if LeBron didn't,
if he didn't go on LeBron's show.
Simple as that.
That was the damage control.
It would have been over.
Drake on the shop was the damage control.
Pusha was just replying to what Drake was saying
on the shop on Joe Budden's podcast.
All right, now, I'm excited to see this movie.
I've got to get to the movies.
Halloween.
Now, according to Variety,
they're saying that that movie could be the October
release with the biggest box office
receipts of all time. It should.
The opening weekend,
they said it brought in $77.5
million. And
you know what the highest horror movie opening of all time
is? What? It.
This is going to be, Halloween is
second, but It was first with $123
million Opening weekend
Well salute to all of y'all
That like to see horror movies
I love horror movies
I hate horror movies
I'll never pay somebody
To scare me
Now I go to haunted houses
And stuff like that
With the kids
But I don't do the movies
I'm not paying you
To scare me
Listen I love a good
Horror movie
So I cannot wait to go
This is why it's my
Favorite time of the year
To watch movies
Because when you watch
Television now
Every movie is like
A horror movie
So they're bringing
All those on TV right now
Just to get ready for Halloween.
I live in the woods, man.
Things start making noises.
I start hearing things in the house.
Plus, real life is way more scarier than anything that they can put in those movies nowadays.
Listen, The Conjuring and Part 2, you guys saw that?
Nope.
All right.
Jay-Z and Beyonce helped raise $6 million for City of Hope.
Now, that was all celebrating big john platt jonathan
platt he's an industry veteran in the world of music publishing and basically it is a not-for-profit
clinical center that specializes in cancer research the city of hope is working with that
cancer research and so beyonce actually came and went on instagram and said it was my pleasure to
honor my friend john platt for all the good work he does for the City of Hope.
City of Hope makes creating medical miracles its priority in the fight against cancer and life-threatening diseases.
If you'd like to help, you can contact them at cityofhope.org.
They raised $6 million for City of Hope.
That's dope.
Yeah, so that's really, really dope.
So shout out to them for that.
I'm dropping the clues bombs for Beyonce, damn it.
And for big John Platt for tying in philanthropy
with his celebration as well
and making that call
for Beyonce and Jay-Z.
He's got a,
I never knew who he was,
but he's got a great interview
on the Rap Radar podcast
with Elliot and B-Dot.
That was very informative,
very interesting to listen to.
He is a music industry veteran
when it comes to the world
of publishing.
He knows everybody.
Never heard of him
on the Rap Radar podcast. All right, now Amy Schumer is showing her support for Colin Kaepernick and she's saying veteran when it comes to the world of publishing. He knows everybody. Never heard of him. Thought he'd wrap it up.
Amy Schumer is showing her support for Colin Kaepernick and she's saying that
she refuses to star in any
Super Bowl ads.
She said she wants to send a message to the league by
interfering with their ad revenue and she
wants others to follow and join
in her boycott as well.
She said anyone who says it's disrespectful
to our military, please read up on the fact
that a lot of veterans are proud of what Colin Kaepernick
is doing and fully support him. What are your
thoughts? Yeah, I mean, she's using
her white privilege to combat prejudice. I mean,
that's the least you can do. The least you can do
is call out the BS when you see it. So
I'm not mad at Amy Schumer for that at all.
All right. I'm Angela Yee, and that is
your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss
Yee. Charlemagne. Yes, sir. Who you giving that donkey to? Listen, man, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. Charlemagne. Yes, sir.
Who you giving that donkey to?
Listen, man, I want y'all to respect y'all grandparents, okay?
And for after the hour, I'm going to give y'all a perfect story of what happens when you don't respect your grandparents.
All right, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Charlemagne, say the game.
Donkey under the shade.
Charlemagne.
You are a donkey. It's gang, donkey of the day. Charlamagne. You are a donkey.
It's time for donkey of the day.
Donkey of the day does not discriminate.
I might not have the song of the day, but I got the donkey of the day.
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey man, hit it with the heat.
It's a breakfast club, bitches.
Who's donkey of the day today?
Yes, donkey of the day for Monday, October 22nd is a double Donkey of the Day.
Yes, the heat and the heart will be shared this morning because this is a teachable moment.
It is a lesson to be learned in all of this, okay?
Helen Washington is 75 years old.
Drop on the clues box for Helen Washington, okay?
She is a mother and grandmother.
Now, I don't know, you know, I don't know how many of y'all still have your grandparents.
I don't have any more grandparents.
All of mine are gone, but I damn sure do miss my grandma, Rosalie.
All right, everyone out there who still has grandparents, cherish them while they are here.
Respect them.
Take care of them.
Listen to them.
Don't be the reason that their blood pressure is 140 or higher, okay?
All right?
Helen's grandson did not get that memo.
See, grandma had to get the gat on her grandson.
In fact, grandma had to shoot her grandson.
Now, before y'all say, see, this is why Charlemagne is problematic,
because he's giving donkey of the day to a man who got shot.
First, it's very important to know he didn't get killed.
Okay.
All right.
Second, you got to hear both sides.
Now, when your parents or grandparents tell you to do something, you should what?
Do it.
That's right.
Do it.
You must listen, all right?
I have a very independent three-year-old at the house who does not listen to anyone.
She's not trying to hear nothing I got to say because she knows I can't do anything but raise my voice.
And she don't care about none of that noise I be making.
But my wife will snatch her up, you know, threaten to pinch her because she has to in order to get her to listen, all right?
She's just one of those kids that will try you if you let her.
And we all got youngins in our lives that we can relate to on that level.
Hell, some of those youngins grow up to be adults that don't listen
and will try you if you let them.
But thanks to Helen Washington,
I don't think her grandson will ever have that problem, okay?
See, Helen is now facing charges of second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon,
all because her grandson wouldn't listen.
Now, they don't release the grandson's name or say how old he is.
So I'm assuming that, you know, they were young.
But Helen told her grandson over and over again to stop putting his cup of tea on her furniture.
Okay, you know Grandma don't play about her goddamn furniture.
You probably grew up in a house where your grandma had plastic over the furniture.
That's how much she cared about her damn
furniture. Alright, Helen was very patient
with her grandson. She told him
stop putting your teacup
on my furniture. He didn't
listen. So Helen took his cup
and dumped the tea out and
threw the cup in the sink. I don't know if she
really threw the cup in the sink, but in my mind, she took
his cup and threw it in the sink. She did
dump the tea down the drain, and she probably was
mumbling all kinds of words I can't repeat on the radio
to herself because her punk-ass grandson
wouldn't listen. Now, Grandma
Ma must know her grandson
because after dumping the tea out,
in true My Dear fashion, she left
the room to go get her gun.
Just stay calm,
okay?
Stay calm, Anil.
Just stay calm.
I'm calm.
You look calm like a quiet star.
I'm calm.
More than a movie.
I'm calm.
It's more than a movie for some people.
For some people, it's more than a movie.
All right?
Grandma went to get the gat,
and she came back in the room.
When she came back in the room,
her grandson was clearly trying to give her a hypertensive crisis
and take her blood pressure higher than 180
because he went and poured himself
a new cup of tea
and again placed it on the furniture.
Oh, my God.
So they got to arguing,
and I feel Grandma's pain.
You know why I feel her pain?
Because I was the hard-headed kid, okay,
who wouldn't listen until something violent happened to him, all right?
It wasn't going to be too much trying on my parents, grandparents,
and aunts and uncles in the slums I'm from, okay?
I come from the go-pick-your-switch era,
the catch-this-extension-card-to-your-ass era,
and then go have to go take a bath era after getting beat with that extension cord, alright?
That disrespect is met with disrespect
in the form of whatever your mom can get her
hands on era. That's the era I come from.
So when Helen's grandson kept
disrespecting her and telling his
grandma why he was going to put his tea
on her furniture,
after a while she got tired of all that capping
so she pulled out her 38 snub
nose and shot her grandsonchild in the leg.
All right, give me one single shot real quick.
Just one single shot.
Give me one single shot to the leg real quick.
Come on now, Tron.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Let's get it.
Can't move on.
There you go.
There you go.
There you go.
The body didn't have to drop, but, you know.
Helen was very cool, calm, and calculated.
Okay, when officers arrived, they found the.38 with rounds,
with five rounds of ammunition, only one of which had been fired.
Okay, so now the reason this is a double donkey is because you know
you can't just go around shooting your grandkids.
But, kids, you also got to respect your grandparents, all right?
Helen was arrested at the scene, and she asked the officers,
where did she hit her grandson?
She just wanted to know where she shot him.
Okay, now this week a judge is ordering Helen to be evaluated
to see if she is competent enough to stand trial.
The answer for that is no.
She's 75 years old.
She can't stand up anyplace for too long, all right?
There should be no charges pressed against this grandma.
The grandson should have listened.
Ain't nothing wrong with grandma.
She's just too old for the BS, all right?
Respect the old when you are young
because you too have a birthday.
Please give Helen Washington
and her punk-ass grandson the biggest hee-haw.
Where'd he get hit, though?
Low leg shot.
Oh.
That's all?
Low shot in the leg.
She knew what she was doing.
She had her 38 snub nose, six shots in it.
You know what I'm saying? She ain't let it off in a while. Just got to see if it still worked. Pow! That's all. Little shot in the leg. She knew what she was doing. She had her 38 snub nose, six shots in it. You know what I'm saying?
She ain't let it off in a while.
Just got to see if it still worked.
Pow!
That's all.
One little shot to the leg.
I bet he'll never do that again.
Never!
And I bet you he'll respect his elders from here on out.
All right.
Okay.
Do you think she should go to jail?
No.
Me neither.
That sounds like something my grandmama would have did.
Definitely my grandmama would have did that.
My dear.
My grandmama would have played.
I was about to say my dear never went to jail.
My dear definitely went to jail. Yeah, there's a whole movie about it. There's a whole was about to say my dear never went to jail. My dear definitely went to jail.
Yeah, there's a whole movie about it.
There's a whole movie about it.
That is a fact.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, thank you for that donkey today, sir.
Now, when we come back, let's open up the phone lines.
800-585-1051.
During Front Page News, we reported a story about a father taking a bully shopping.
You got the story?
Yes, this happened in Houston.
Aubrey actually had a heart-to-heart conversation with his son's bully.
His son is eight years old.
And he asked the bully, who's picking on you?
And he told him, all the other kids, they make fun of me.
Turns out he was being bullied at school.
And when he talked to the young man's mother, found out that he was actually homeless, didn't have clean clothes, clean shoes.
And he was being bullied for that.
So he actually ended up bringing the bully shopping and buying him some clothes
and helping him get some confidence.
All right, well, let's open up the phone lines.
Let's discuss it.
800-585-1051.
This was posted all over social media.
People feel, hey, that's a great thing to do.
You showed that boy love.
And then some other people feel like, wait a minute,
you just going to buy the kid clothes that bullied your son?
So when he bullies your son, the next day he's going to be wearing the fresh clothes that you just bought him?
So let's talk about it.
800-585-1051.
How do you feel about it?
We'll discuss it when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Break the fuck out.
Hey, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Break the fuck out. Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about what happened in Houston over the weekend.
You want to explain to the people what happened, Yee?
Yes, a father confronted the son's bully.
His son is eight years old.
And it turns out the bully was being bullied himself.
He was homeless, didn't have clean clothes, clean shoes.
So the father took him shopping.
And now the bully and his son are friends.
See, I don't know.
I'm kind of split with this because, you know, you're bullying my son,
and I'm taking you shopping and I'm buying you clothes.
And I understand that you have problems and that's why you're bullying my son.
But how does that look to my son?
That the person that's bullying him, I feel like I'm bribing him not to bully my son anymore.
You know, that's what it kind of feels like.
And then what happens next week when he needs clothes again?
You're going to bully my son again for some more clothes?
Or what happens when you're sad if you don't have a haircut?
Then you're going to bully my son again for a haircut?
I don't know if the whole issue was just him having clothes
or if it was more not having confidence
and also having a lot of issues at home
and knowing that somebody cares about you.
A lot of people's Achilles heel is love.
The kid is eight years old.
He probably don't have no father figure. So I
think that the one thing that's going to come of this situation
is that this man is not going to serve
as a father figure in this little boy's
life. So I think even bigger than the clothes,
even bigger than the sneakers, even bigger
than the haircut, he'll have a
father figure to hold him down.
That's if he's there, if he stays.
We hear all these stories about kids who end up going
to the boxing gym because they're very aggressive and they need some type of help
or direction and things to do after school so they can stay out of trouble.
Like, people do need, kids do need people to help them sometimes.
And you said the little boy and the other little boy are friends now, right?
Yeah, they're friends now.
Yeah, so the daddy's going to definitely be around.
I think that's all he needed was a father figure.
What just happened over the weekend?
How much friends can we be?
Of course I'm your friend
when your dad bought me clothes.
It was worth the effort, though.
And the dad said,
you know what?
I wanted to try something different
instead of going the regular route.
I just don't want this guy to think
that whenever he wanted a new pair of Yeezys,
all he got to do is beat up my son.
Yeah, I need the new Yeezys
to help him go beat his son.
And your clothes that you bought.
Trav.
Yo, Envy, what's good, bro?
What's up, Trav?
What's going on?
Not much, man.
I don't know.
He has a good heart for trying that,
but I don't want the bully on my son going on a shopping spree.
Next time he bully me, he going to be in Supreme.
I don't think that's a good idea, man.
Why do y'all think he bought Supreme for this young man?
Every time you beat my son up, I'm going to buy you a new Supreme T-shirt, okay?
That's the least I can do.
Thank you, man.
Because you know what?
That actually is a good trick.
Y'all take it to the next level.
That's a good trick because you're not going to beat my son up
in nice clothes.
If you got on some nice clothes,
you ain't going to want
to mess your nice clothes up.
That's true, too.
I got on some new J's.
I ain't going to mess up my J's.
You ain't going to crease
my J's kicking your son.
Crystal.
Yes.
What do you think?
We're talking about
the whole bullying incident
that happened in Houston.
No, I don't think
that the father should have,
to me, rewarded him
for bullying his son.
It's not his fault
that the parent can't afford certain things
and that if they're homeless and sheltered, he can go to.
It's like when he gets older, he's going to think it's okay to go steal
because I don't have it.
You guys are cold.
It's not a matter of being cold.
This poor little 8-year-old is going through it at home,
and he's being bullied also in school, and somebody reaches out.
Maybe I got to hear more to this story.
Maybe Angelique's leaving out a big gap in this story
because we're just assuming this kid is poor. No, he said he spoke to the I gotta hear more to this story. Maybe Angelina's leaving out a big gap in this story because we're just assuming
this kid is poor. No, he said he spoke to the mom
and the kid was homeless and he didn't have clean
clothes and clean shoes. Okay, so maybe he was
doing that out of the goodness of his heart. Maybe it had nothing
to do with the bullying. Maybe it was the fact
that he went to go check on the boy to see who
his boy's parents are. He found out the boy's
situation and he just decided to
hold the boy down just because he felt bad about
the situation, not necessarily because the little boy was
bullying his son. He said, I spent some time with my
son's school bully yesterday just to dig a little
deeper on why. Come to find out he was
being bullied for not having clean clothes and clean
shoes. I asked why, just to find out that his
family is currently homeless. I had to do
something. So the little boy is getting bullied too?
Yeah. So the little boy that's bullied
his son is getting bullied as well. Also.
He's bullying my son. So what you gonna to do for the other bullies, then?
Since you out here just shopping for all the bullies.
All the bullies.
You're not going to shop for the bullies that's bullying the homeless boy, too?
Well, your son is the one that's getting beat up.
All I'm saying is don't stop there.
All right?
Just imagine you go in and your son goes, Dad, Dad, what did you say to the bully?
I took him shopping.
That's what I'm saying.
How is your son going to feel?
But it's a cycle of bullying going on.
So you're not going to go talk to the original bullies that caused this homeless bully to be the bully to your son?
I'm hoping that this will be an example for all of the students when they see what's going on to understand that you got to have some empathy and compassion for your fellow classmates.
They're only eight years old.
You got to start somewhere.
Or there's a kid listening right now and be like, if I bully, I can get some new Supreme.
It sounded to me like this daddy need to buy. Why do y'all keep saying Supreme? It sounded to me like this daddy need to buy about eight Supreme shirts.
And by the way, what do I get?
Daddy?
Nothing.
Why you take my bully out?
I need some new shoes.
That's what I'm saying.
All right.
That's what I'm saying.
What about me?
I got a Supreme sneaker in the back of my neck and you getting more stuff?
Nah.
800-585-1051.
What do you think?
Call us right now.
It's the Breakfast Club. Good
morning.
Good morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast
Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about a bullying incident that happened over
the weekend in Houston. You want to explain a little bit, Yee?
Yes. An eight-year-old was being bullied, and the father confronted his son's bully.
Come to find out, the bully was having issues at school himself.
He didn't have clean clothes, clean shoes because his family is currently homeless.
Now, the dad ended up bringing the two kids together and now they are friends.
Right.
I don't know about buying the bully, bullying clothes.
I just I just don't I don't want to reward somebody for that type of behavior.
I mean, I think what happened was he took him out just to have a conversation with him,
found those things out when he dug a little bit deeper
and then just did something to kind of
help him reach out to him and give him some confidence.
He might have changed this kid's life.
I just want to know who talks to the bullies, though.
Because who's going to talk to the bullies
that are bullying the homeless boy? Because now
this homeless boy going to come to school with nice
clothes on and nice shoes. How do you get that? Exactly.
You don't think them original bullies ain't going to...
No, you think them original bullies ain't going to pick on him now? Oh, you think you all that? Because you're getting new clothes and new sneakers. How do you get that? Exactly. You don't think them original bullies ain't going to, no, you think them original bullies
ain't going to pick on him now?
Oh, you think you all that?
Because you're getting
new clothes and new sneakers.
We heard about your little story
on the Breakfast Club.
This is a good example
for the school, though,
because the main issue
is they said they reached out
to the school
and the school authorities
weren't doing anything.
So now this is shining
a spotlight on that school
and hopefully this is
a discussion that
within the school
and the teachers
and everybody in the school
they can have.
Still got a teacher
set to defend himself.
Chris, hold up, Chris.
Yeah, I think bullying all the way is straight wrong, period.
You feel me?
But if somebody could boss it off with somebody that stopped them from bullying their kid, then, you know, that would be cool.
So ain't nobody going to bully my son, first of all.
But if you were to help somebody, you know, that's unfortunate and stop them from bullying and show them there's a different side, then I think it's good.
I will say, though, bullying has a different context from when we was growing up.
What you mean?
Because what we used to do growing up, teasing each other, laughing at each other,
fighting, that's what they call bullying nowadays.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
Hello, who's this?
This is Maserati.
What up, Jack?
Maserati.
Why are you named after a call you don't even have?
Hey, shorty, I got two of them.
So not your shorty, my G.
Wow.
Not your shorty.
Hey, what up, short?
But anyway, I'm calling in reference to that, man.
I think, dude, he making his son look like a punk instead of letting his son reconcile
that situation.
Now the kids ain't going to respect his kids.
Every time a new pair of shoes
come out, that's giving the bully the right
to beat him up. Like, if I beat this dude up,
I'm going to get the new pair of mics.
I don't know that that's what's going to
happen, guys.
Think about that for a minute. If somebody said,
you like, okay, if Charlamagne bullying
one of the producers up
there and the owner come back,
Charlamagne the Benz, and Charlamagne see a new G-Wagon come out, he going to get on top of the dude again and and the owner come by and Salome in a Benz and Salome
see a new G-Wagon come out, he gonna get on top
of the dude again and get a new Benz, right?
But you know what could happen is this kid
could realize that
what he was doing was wrong and now he
had somebody reach out to him. He's only 8 years
old and now somebody's reached out to him
and maybe that could help change his life.
By the way, I don't bully anybody, okay?
I just complain about them and get them fired.
It's a difference.
You stop bullying why?
What do you mean?
When the slow kid put you in the arm in the dope scene.
Yeah, because the slow kid choked me up.
Exactly.
But I wasn't bullying.
I was just teasing him.
That's bullying.
In my mind, I wasn't bullying him.
I was just teasing him.
But you realize he was when he put you in the choke room.
I've been teasing people my whole life.
Middle school, high school.
They call that bullying now.
In the street, now on the radio.
They call that bullying now.
I know.
They call it bullying now.
You're right.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's good, man?
It's AWOL.
AWOL.
What do you think, man?
Man, honestly, the dad's soft as hell for that, man.
Honestly, man.
Your son already getting his lunch money taken.
What the hell are you going to go buy the bullies clothes and all that stuff for, man?
He got me bit.
I would have went to the dad's house and whooped his ass, honestly.
There was no dad, sir.
He ain't got no dad, then I would have whooped the bullies.
And he didn't have a house.
He was homeless also, by the way.
We don't know if he got dad.
We don't know if he has a dad in his life because he said he reached out to the parents
and he told the parents he was taking him out.
He definitely had no dad.
Honestly, then you got to take that up to the school then, man.
You got me bent, though.
They said they did try to...
No bully that's messing
with my son.
They said they did try
to talk to the school
and the school
didn't do anything.
But y'all keep talking
about this one bully.
I think y'all missing
the part of the story
where they're saying
the one bully he bought
clothes for was getting
bullied himself.
So what do you do
with the original set of bullies?
Why they don't get
a shopping spree?
They'll stop it.
You know what? I commend the dad for trying to do something different and trying to really of bullies? Why they don't get a shopping spree? They'll stop it You know what?
I commend the dad for trying to do something different
And trying to really help the situation
I just don't know if I would have went that route
Me personally
I mean, and by the way
All these kids are eight
That's right
That's the other thing to keep in mind
All these kids just need a stern talking to
You know what I'm saying?
And hopefully the school will do something now
That some action was taken
And there's a light shine on that school.
Now it's a bigger problem and now they need to really take some initiative.
Well, I think the original bully is going to really turn up today
because they can't believe they got bypassed.
They got passed over for a shopping spree.
We the ones that started all of this.
What's the moral of the story?
Okay.
I don't know.
I don't know if there's a moral to this story.
Stop bullying.
Tell your kids stop bullying.
That's all I can say.
Love. Love is the moral of the story. Alright.
We got rumors on the way in? Yes, I didn't get
a chance to talk about this R&B album that
this rapper that y'all all know and love
is working on next. Alright, we'll get
into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast
Club. Good morning. The Breakfast
Club.
This is The Rumor Report
with Angela Yee.
So Wiz Khalifa has announced that he has a new album coming
and he already has it pretty much done.
And he's not going to be rapping.
Check it out.
My next album is all singing.
Like full on.
Are you committed to this idea? Are you committed to this idea?
Are you committed to this idea?
I already got, like,
20 songs done.
And you having vocal coaches, though?
Yeah.
I mean, I could see that.
Wiz Khalifa doing an R&B album?
I mean, does it matter in 2018
that all these rappers sing?
Like, does it really matter?
Yeah, I'm looking for it.
I listen.
I like Wiz Khalifa.
It's just a melody.
You're going to be high
when you're listening to it anyway,
so it don't matter.
He's very sing-songy already.
All right.
Pete Davidson has been making some jokes about breaking up with Ariana Grande.
He was hosting the Judd and Pete for America benefit.
And he said, well, as you can tell, I didn't want to be here.
There's a lot going on.
He said, does anybody have any open rooms?
Looking for a roommate.
He also goes on to say, I've been covering a bunch of tattoos.
That's fun.
I'm effing zero for two
in the tattoo department.
I'm afraid to get
my mom tattooed on me.
That's how bad it is.
She might be gone after that.
What else is he supposed to do?
You got to turn that pain
into this laughter.
You know what I'm saying?
Sometimes you got to laugh
to keep from crying.
You're a comedian
at the end of the day,
so your life experiences
should be what your material
is based on.
Did you check up on him?
Of course.
And he had canceled a recent gig.
He also had a temple university just because it was right after the breakup.
So he's got to take some time to handle all that.
Don't you think for one second Peter's sitting around crying his eyes out.
Okay, Peter's out here living his life like it's golden.
All right.
But it's okay to be upset when a relationship doesn't work out.
It's okay to cry.
There's nothing wrong with that, by the way.
It's okay to turn that tragedy into triumph
by turning it into good stand-up material.
It's the money, that's right.
And she did give back the ring. That was a $100,000
ring, but she did keep her pet pig
that it seemed like they had together.
For now, until you see her picking some bacon
out her teeth.
Alright, Kim Kardashian
recently did an interview and
it's for Richardson Magazine.
It's a cover story.
And she talked about just being really shy and insecure.
When?
When was she shy and insecure?
Well, she said she can go on set and be fully naked in front of 50 people doing a shoot,
but if she's one-on-one, she said she's shy and insecure.
She said she has two different personalities.
And she also said that when she got pregnant, she gained 60 or 70 pounds and felt unlike herself, so unsexy.
But she said afterwards she felt like she had her best body ever.
So, you know, just so you know, just because she is confident publicly being sexy, she says she actually is very shy and insecure.
And she's more conservative in real life.
All right.
And Kim.
Go ahead.
No, because I mean, you know what? Ask the question there. and she's more conservative in real life. All right? And Kim, go ahead, B.
No, because I mean, you know what, never mind.
Ask the question, there.
Don't be scared.
Because the tape with Ray J, that was personal.
She wasn't shy there, was she?
She was having sex with her boyfriend, though.
Right, but she says that's when she's shy.
You know that tape wasn't like professionally shot, right? It looked pretty professional.
You know it was like a sex tape that they sold.
So it was supposed to be between them.
Right, but that's when she said she's shy.
She said she's shy.
She said she's not shy when she's naked in front of 50 people,
but she's shy when it's one-on-one.
But I'm saying she doesn't look shy.
Yeah, so what you're saying is if it was one-on-one, she wasn't shy.
So we're acting like that sex tape was good?
You don't remember that tape?
Yeah, no, but she wasn't shy.
That's what I'm saying.
She wasn't that good either.
It ain't like she was throwing it back.
Like, here you go, either.
All right.
All right, that's your friend's wife.
All right, let's stop.
We're talking about the sex tape, though.
You brought it up.
Well, she didn't look shy on the tape.
No, she didn't.
That's what I'm saying.
You crazy.
That tape was trash.
But that doesn't mean she wasn't shy.
Yeah, now, the tape was trash.
Yes.
But that's not because she was shy.
Maybe it was because she was shy, though.
She wasn't giving it up to Ray like that.
She wasn't, like, going crazy.
Like how?
Taking the penis, slapping it all over her face.
What?
What?
Are you? You know what? He's showing us. You can't see it
out there, but he's showing us. Slapping a penis on her face.
We've seen a freaky sex tape before. Like, you know
when somebody's giving it up on tape. She wasn't
giving it up. She might not just be freaky like that.
That might just be how she has sex. Maybe.
Right. All right, now Kim Kardashian
also got some flowers and
there was a piano player in her home
and part of that is an early birthday present from Kanye.
That was nice.
She celebrated her birthday on Sunday, but he also did all this for her a day early at their house.
So she put up some videos showing that.
And he also posted a clip.
Kim Kardashian, you're stunning.
I will keep trying to make things that can express how beautiful you are inside and out and how much I love you and our family.
All right.
Sway Lee is upset. He was left out of Travis Scott and Drake's Sicko Mode video.
Why would something like that happen?
Well, here's what he had to say.
I don't know why I'm not in that video, man.
You know what I'm saying?
They try to count Sway Lee out of a lot of stuff.
But guess what?
In five years, we're going to see who the biggest artists are.
You know what I'm saying?
They can lead me out and count me out of everything.
The ones that show me love, I'm going to remember that. I'm going to show
you love. The ones that count me out,
I'm going to keep note of it, and I'm going to keep rocking.
At the end of the day, you can only stay in your own lane.
However they do me, that's how I'm going to do them.
Well, I must be the old
guy in the room, because I had no idea Sway Lee
was even on Sicko Mode. I didn't know either.
I've never seen Sway Lee's name featured on that
song. Even on the radio, it don't say
Travis Scott featuring Sae Lee and Drake.
I think it's the part where it goes,
Nobody knew Swae Lee was on that song.
Y'all never knew that until he said that this weekend.
I didn't know that, honestly.
No need to frame.
Maybe some kids knew that.
I never knew Swae Lee was on that song.
I didn't know.
Someone said.
So, that's Swae Lee.
I thought that was Travis.
Dan, did you know Swae Lee was on that song originally? He told me. Said. So that's Sway Lee. So sad. Yeah. I thought that was trap. So sad.
Dan, did you know Sway Lee was on that song originally?
He told me.
Okay.
Now we know.

After those runs, the conversations keep going.
That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about.

into 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 wherever you get your
