And tonight on Black-ish,
there is going to be
a girlfriend reunion.
Okay.
There's a lot of,
there's some other
good reasons too.
Why, what else?
Today is National
Fluffernutter Day.
I don't even know
what that means.
I don't know either,
but it just sounded
entertaining.
And also,
you ain't got a song, huh?
No, man!
It's Nick Cannon's
birthday, man. Drop on the clues box. Happy birthday, Nick Cannon. I want to hear Gigolo. You ain't got a song, huh? No, man. It's Nick Cannon's birthday, man.
Drop on the Clues box.
Happy birthday, Nick Cannon.
I want to hear Gigolo.
You ain't got Gigolo yet?
So I just want to let you know that none of that is exciting.
His girlfriend's being on Black-ish tonight.
I don't even know why you tried to change the subject.
Okay?
But Jill Marie Jones, Persia White, Tracy Ellis Ross, and Golden Brooks
will be reuniting tonight on Black-ish on ABC.
God damn it.
Okay?
I can't wait to see that.
So I got to go to Jacksonville today because I'm going to be at Edward Waters College.
I thought you were going to watch the show.
I was like, wow, you're really going all out.
No.
It's mental health week because the 10th is World Mental Health Day.
So I'll be at Edward Waters College today talking about what I love to talk about,
which is mental health.
And then I'm going to have my black ass
back home tonight to watch Black-ish.
I don't know if that's exciting
as Nick Cannon's birthday,
but I'll try.
I mean, I'm sure Nick Cannon
is excited about his birthday.
Okay?
All right.
You know, Hampton University
called me yesterday.
University called you?
Yeah, well, if I say the people
from Hampton University say their name,
the people that represent Hampton University
called me yesterday.
Okay.
And, you know, I frequently go there to talk about real estate.
I have my podcast there, do parties, all types of things.
But it was like, hey, it was like, it's Mental Health Month, I believe.
And it was like, we were trying to get Charlemagne down here to talk about mental health.
I'm like, oh, I'm sure he'll do that.
So I sent him your number.
Did they call yet?
You going to call me the week of Mental Health Week?
Look, Hampton's a little slow.
What the hell's wrong with y'all, Hampton?
Mental Health Day is the 10th.
You gonna call me the week of?
Hey, they're kind of slow.
They calling.
They calling.
I'm just letting you know.
Don't call them slow.
Hey, they're a little slow.
It's the week.
That is Envy's alma mater.
Hey, watch your mouth.
Watch your mouth.
It's slow.
Watch your mouth.
It's the guy that produced, it's the school that produced DJ Envy.
Hey, watch your mouth.
Well, shout out to Hampton University.
They hit me yesterday for your number.
So I was like, yeah, I'm sure he'll do it.
What's up with you, Yee?
I'm still out here in Detroit just dealing with some things.
You know, I have my properties out here.
I have two houses that I'm working on.
One of them I'm keeping.
One of them I'm selling.
So it's just a work in progress.
And then today I'm talking at Wayne State University out here.
All right.
And then I'm back home tonight.
I was trying to get Gigolo, but I could only find A Nick Cannon song Called Hold On
Y'all ever heard of that one?
No
Can we kill
Tariq St. Patrick already bro?
I finally caught up on Power 2
Because I hadn't seen Power
The last two weeks
Tariq St. Patrick
Might be the most
Unlikable character
In TV history
He's doing his job
And that's saying a lot
He's doing his job
I can't think of the last
That means he's doing
A great acting job
No he's really not
I can't think of the last
Character that I really
Did not like He's just not a likable person And if they're trying To set it up To, he's really not. I can't think of the last character that I really did not like.
He's just not a likable person
and if they're trying to set it up
to where he's the next ghost,
no.
I usually root for the bad guys
in TV shows and movies.
Not Tariq.
All right.
I thought that's not how
they're setting it up.
I thought it was supposed to be
like the Chronicles of Ghosts
or something like that.
Maybe there's a new ghost
because the way the last episode ended,
you know.
Hey, whoa,
people didn't see it all.
Well, all right. The way the last episode ended, you know. Hey, well, people didn't see it all.
Well, all right.
The way the last episode ended, it was like Tariq
is next up.
Okay.
All right.
Well, let's get the show
cracking.
Pretty V will be joining us.
Oh, man.
I love Pretty V.
If you don't know who
Pretty V is, you should
follow her on social media.
She's what you would call,
I guess, a social media
influencer, social media
star.
She's on Wild N' Out.
She's also hosting the
pre-show for
the BET Hip Hop Awards. That comes on tonight too, right?
Hosted by Lil Duval. Is it tonight?
Is it tonight? You can't throw stuff
out there. Is it tonight? I'm pretty sure it is tonight.
Yeah, I think it does come on tonight.
Alright, it is tonight. But let's get that correct.
Are we sure? Are we 100% sure?
You said it was such fact just now. I just said I don't know.
First it was speculation.
Is it?
Oh my goodness. You'll? I don't know.
Oh, my goodness.
You'll just be screaming stuff out.
No, it is tonight.
October, yeah, tonight at 8 o'clock.
All right, so the show's on tonight at 8 o'clock.
Right.
So Pretty V will be joining us this morning.
That's right.
And we got front page news.
What are we talking about, Yee?
Yes, we are going to talk about the judge, Tammy Kemp,
and this Amber Geiger murder trial.
She is now speaking out about hugging her at sentencing.
All right, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked. This's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ
MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some
front page news.
That last night at Monday Night Football,
the 49ers crushed the
Browns 31-3.
Now, also, congratulations to the Yankees.
The Yankees swept the Twins. They're going to play
the winner of the Rays versus the Astros.
And I'm praying that the Yankees make it to the World Series.
I mean, they probably got to take on Houston.
So, trade the truth.
If you want to bet, we could bet a little bit.
But I pray that they make it to the World Series.
I don't think my dad has ever been to the World Series.
When we were a kid and the Yankees made it, we couldn't afford no tickets to the World Series.
But now that I can afford it, I really want to take him.
Take him and my son. So, it'll We couldn't afford no tickets to the World Series, but now that I can afford it, I really want to take him, take him and my son.
So it'll be like a big family outing.
So I'm hoping the Yankees make it this year to the World Series.
So let's cross our fingers.
Now what else we got, Ye?
Well, let's talk about the judge, Tammy Kemp,
in the Amber Geiger murder trial.
She's now speaking out, and she said she couldn't refuse giving a hug.
Here's what she had to say.
I think it did radiate love throughout the room.
There was like a huge release of emotion and tension,
and there was a level of hope.
I'm surprised that people think the hug was somehow detrimental.
Had you witnessed the person who was hurting as Ms. Geiger was,
I don't know a person who would have denied
her that human contact.
What I wanted to say
to her was, please forgive yourself.
My God.
She also said that she thought her actions were acceptable
because it came after all
official proceedings had been completed.
I don't know how anyone could think that was appropriate. Watching that
sister hug that woman really looks like
some massive, we sick, massive, we got 10 years.
Comforting that woman as if she's not a full-blown criminal.
Okay, that was the equivalent of cops buying Dylann Roof Burger King
after he killed those nine beautiful souls at Emanuel AME.
Not to mention she got 10 years.
If you think she should have gotten more time, which she should have,
it's clear to see why she didn't because the judge was biased.
And no one has yet to show me a judge doing that in any other case.
Nobody has shown me that. She requested me a hug, and I'm embarrassed to say I didn't say the judge was biased. And no one has yet to show me a judge doing that in any other case. Nobody has shown me that.
She requested me a hug and I'm embarrassed to say I didn't say yes right away.
She asked me a second time and between those
asks, I was reminded about my responsibility
to show love and compassion.
I've even seen other judges say that that wasn't appropriate.
So, that's ridiculous
to me.
Yeah, that's next level.
That shows that she had clear bias as a judge
the whole time because she felt sorry for the,
herself felt sorry for her.
All right, now Instagram is getting rid
of that following activity tab.
So you know how you can see whoever you follow,
what they did, their activities,
if they followed somebody, like something and all of that.
Well, now you can only see the activity
that's going on your account.
Oh, that's going to be horrible for girlfriends.
Now girlfriends can't keep up with who their man is following.
Oh, so you can't tell who you follow.
Who they like, if they double tap somebody and things like that.
Really?
Wow.
Now you can't see what goes on in their activity tab.
Wow, now you don't have to shadow follow Bernice Burgos no more.
You can just follow her.
You can just follow her and your girl will never know.
I mean, you can look at somebody's followers to see who they're following.
You just can't see when it happens.
Nobody got time for all that.
Yeah.
Do you think not?
I'm sure there's some people out there that's checking right now.
There's people who have all the time in the world.
That's right.
All right.
Well, that is your front page news.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051 if you need to vent.
Hit us up right now.
Maybe you had a bad night or a horrible night.
Or maybe you're a Yankee fan and your Yankees won. 800-585-1051 if you need to vent. Hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night or a horrible night or maybe a Yankee fan and your Yankees won.

It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired?
Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary?
Consider this.
Start your own country.
I planted the flag.
I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Laudonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,
but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about
conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times
we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self-preservation and protection.
It was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.

We got the Jets this week.
I'm pretty sure we're going to get back on track this week.
Yeah, I think you'll be all right with the Jets.
I think you dropped the ball, bro.
I think you shouldn't have been so hard on the Cowboys.
My bro, I've been jumping the gun for 41 years with my Cowboys.
I ain't new to this Dallas Cowboy stand-up, okay?
That is a fact, all right?
All right, look, one more thing.
One more thing.
Look, I listen to the lip service, Edgy Lee,
and I just want to say, you know, you're doing your thing.
I like, you know, seeing both sides of you, you know,
the freaky side and the sophisticated side.
That's what's up.
Well, thank you.
You're doing your thing.
Yeah, we can do both.
All right, E.
All right.
All right, bro.
Sophisticated yet ratchet. Hello, who's this?
Yeah, this is Ryan from Manhattan.
Hey, Ryan from Manhattan. How you doing today,

All righty, bro.

And good luck with everything, bro.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up now.
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.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning, man. I really don't want to say my name.
You know, I mean, if you don't mind,
but I just got to get off my chest.
Like, I feel like every morning I get up, man, I feel, like, horrible.
Like, right now I'm going through this whole custody thing with my daughter,
and I just want to know why is it so hard to remain a good father?
Like, it seems like if you're a good father, they want to attack you.
If you're a bad father, they want to leave you. If you're a bad father, they want to
leave you be. I've been in my
daughter's life for five years.
Five years. And now, because
I moved on, I'm happy
in another relationship.
By now, I got to go through all this
problem.
I'm sorry. I'm just calling
to get it off my chest because it's really
hurting me
Yeah no I can hear it
In your voice bro
I mean you gotta
And we're sorry to hear that
You gotta keep fighting
To be a good father
I mean don't let
Your relationship
With your baby mom
Ruin that
I mean at the end of the day
You're a father
You be a great father brother
I'm afraid bro
I'm afraid
Because I'm afraid
To go into the system
And now I'm gonna have
To pay more money
To see my daughter left
That's what I'm afraid of
I never wanted to go to the system.
I did everything.
I tried to do everything I could to remain out of the system, out of the courts.
I gave her money.
I gave her everything she wanted.
But now that I'm happy and I moved on and my daughter loves me, I got to go through this.
What about a lawyer helping you with custody?
You don't have a lawyer helping you with your custody?
So I went to go see a lawyer.
And obviously, I'm going to have to pay some thousands of dollars.
I believe lawyers are there for people who have money.
Because honestly, I can't afford to get this lawyer, and the lawyer doesn't give me anything.
There's no win.
I'm going to have to pay.
All the lawyer's going to do is just represent me and say things that I could possibly say myself.
So I'm not going to pay $4,000 just to have somebody sit there. Yeah, but
this is about an investment into your child
and your child's life in the future of you
two together. I agree.
I'm just afraid to give this
lawyer money and nothing comes from it.
But this is an investment you have to
and I know it sucks, but it is
something that unfortunately
if you want to put yourself in a better position
and you care enough about and clearly you do about your relationship with your child, sometimes you have to come up out of your pocket, which sucks, but you got to do it.
And it might end up working out in your benefit.
It might.
What does your baby mother want?
What does she want?
What does she say she wants?
You know what she say?
Give her more time or give her more money.
So I said, all right, I have an apartment where my daughter has her own room.
Why can't my daughter stay with me?
Like, why?
I'm here to support you.
If you want to go to school,
I'll support that.
I'll help you get a laptop
to go to school,
whatever you need.
But why now
that I'm in a relationship,
a happy relationship,
I finally introduced my girl
to my daughter
and my daughter loves her.
My daughter loves her.
But now that we have a little tiny family, the mother of my child doesn't want that.
So she's trying to, like, eliminate me from my daughter's life, and that's not cool.
To give you an example, I just got into the union, which gives me great benefits.
Why can't I get my daughter underneath my insurance?
Why? Why can't you give me the information that I't I get my daughter underneath my insurance? Why?
Why can't you give me the information that I need to put my daughter underneath my insurance?
I don't understand that.
And my brother,
I appreciate you getting it off your chest.
I think it's good to vent,
but these are conversations
you really should be having with your attorney.
I know that it's going to cost you money,
but man, you know, it's worth it in the end.
I appreciate that.
And you know what?
It is the conversation I should be having in private.
So if you guys don't air this, that's fine.
But at least...
No.
I didn't say you should have it in private.
We're here for you to vent.
We are here for you to vent and get it off your chest.
You should have it with your attorney.
Not in private.
You should have it with your attorney.
Well, stay strong, bro.
And you keep fighting for your child, man.
Thank you, guys.
The only person that can help him in a situation like this
is a good attorney.
You know what I'm saying?
It sounds to me like he wants custody more than anything.
Right.
You know?
So only a good lawyer can help you get that.
All right.
Well, get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, you can hit us up anytime.
Now, we got rumors on the way, Yee?
Yes, let's talk about Rihanna.
She has something new coming out.
It's not an album, but we'll tell you what it is if you're a fan.
All right.
We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The an album, but we'll tell you what it is if you're a fan. All right, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is The Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, Rihanna has a book coming out.
It's a visual autobiography with over 1,000 photos, which documents her career.
And it's 504 pages.
It will also have snapshots from her childhood in Barbados, her worldwide tours, her fashion moments, and private time with friends and family.
She said, I'm so excited to share this collection of incredible images.
I'm very grateful to the talented photographers
and artists who contributed. We've been working
on the book for over five years, and
I'm really happy to be able to finally share
it with everybody. So they're saying this book
weighs about 15 pounds, and it costs
$175, so you can
pre-order the Rihanna book on Rihanna's website
now. That's smart. A picture
book of Rihanna? Who wouldn't grab that?
It's a dope coffee table. Listen, I'm into it.
And they're saying the book is also going to get a
big album release party, of course, at the
Guggenheim Museum, and that's going to be happening
Friday in New York City.
Alright, now, Tiny,
T.I.'s wife, Tiny, she's had
at least $750,000
worth of jewelry stolen from her
over the weekend. The robbery
took place while she was grabbing a drink at
Bar Mouthy in Atlanta. She got
there in her Lamborghini at 8.45pm.
She went to the bar. She didn't realize her
property was missing until she came back to her
vehicle around 11.45pm
and that's when they confirmed
that the Atlanta Police Department says
she did report theft of her jewelry.
I mean, there was a lot going on in Atlanta this weekend.
You had the BET Hip Hop Awards. You had that, I think it going on in Atlanta this weekend. You had the BET Hip Hop Awards.
You had that, I think it was a film festival on Sunday.
You had the Tyler Perry Grand Opening.
She had all that in her car?
Yeah, she said it was in a blue velour bag that was on top of the center console of her Lamborghini SUV.
Her friend went to the car to grab a deck of cards.
And Tiny says her friend had no idea that was in the car.
The jewelry was in there.
There was no sign of forced entry.
There was no damage to the vehicle.
Listen, I'm sure the Wolves were out this weekend.
Absolutely.
But I know that they need to return T.I.'s wife's items expeditiously.
Okay?
I'm sure T.I. made a couple phone calls.
Speaking of Atlanta, let's talk about Tyler Perry.
And he's discussing squashing his beef with Spike Lee.
You know, taking the high road.
We told you already that he did actually name
one of the sound studios in honor of Spike Lee.
And here's what he had to say about that.
You cannot deny what he has done in the film industry
and how he's been on the forefront to help me
and everybody else get to the place where we are.
So, you know, Spike called me a few years ago
when he came to my house in Atlanta.
We sat down, we had a great conversation.
And the beauty is that's what I'm hoping that people understand.
Like with Oprah and I work together, it was a huge moment.
But this moment for me and Spike is a huge moment.
So I'm hoping that we as people start to come together and understand that, hey, everything's all right.
Everything's cool. You can have your opinion. I can have mine.
But we all are going in the same direction. So I just wanted to honor him for what he's done. That's dope.
Hey, man, Tyler's my example. I respect that.
Right. Spike Lee had once called the
Madea franchise coonery and buffoonery.
So now they've made up.
Spike and Tyler didn't have a real issue. It was just
a matter of difference of opinion when it comes to
the type of art they make. But people like that can do
more together than apart. Tyler got the studio. Spike
got the creative. They can collab on something amazing.
All right. Now, Ellen DeGeneres, she
was under some heat for sitting next to
George W. Bush, former president George
W. Bush, at the Dallas Cowboys
Green Bay Packers game. On social
media, people were going in on her just because
of his views. He's a conservative Republican president.
People were upset.
She said they thought, why is a gay Hollywood
liberal sitting next to a conservative
Republican president?
Well, here's what she had to say.
Here's the thing. I'm friends with George Bush.
In fact, I'm friends with a lot of people who don't share the same beliefs that I have.
We're all different, and I think that we've forgotten that that's okay that we're all different.
For instance, I wish people wouldn't wear fur.
I don't like it, but I'm friends with people who wear fur.
But just because I don't agree with someone on everything doesn't mean that I'm not going to be friends with them.
When I say be kind to one another,
I don't mean only the people
that think the same way that you do.
I mean be kind to everyone.
Okay, I don't see nothing wrong with that.
Yeah, I don't see the problem.
Why are people so afraid
to talk to people
with a difference of opinion,
you know, different beliefs?
Like, who wants to be
in a constant echo chamber
all the time?
Social media makes you comfortable
with group thinking.
Absolutely.
As long as you have your people
who think like you and believe what you believe, then you feel safe. But that doesn you comfortable with group thinking. Absolutely. As long as you have your people who think like you
and believe what you believe,
then you feel safe.
But that doesn't contribute
to your growth at all.
I come up here every day
and talk to this Cowboys fan.
And the fact that he's
a Cowboys fan,
I don't look at him
any different.
Maybe I do a little bit.
There you guys go.
I look at you different
for a number of reasons.
Okay, not just your sports teams.
What?
It's really the beige rage,
to be honest with you, but it just reinforces
every negative stereotype I had about light-skinned men.
I'm sorry. I know y'all hate colorism,
but if it's not a stereotype, if it's true.
Wow. I don't mind
it's your Cowboys, fam. I'll just leave it at that.
Let's move on, and let's talk about Sky
from Black and Crew. She got into it
with a New York City taxi driver
who cut her off in traffic.
She actually jumped out of her car and got in the cab driver's face,
basically ready to fight.
They're saying the cab had nearly sideswiped her vehicle,
and she did have her security with her.
And she posted, hey, what's up?
I usually don't address these sort of things.
However, I'm in a place in my life where accountability is important.
The video floating around featuring the taxi driver
and I exchanging of words is being misconstrued.
There's more to the story than what's being seen.
This driver recklessly hits myself and my loved ones.
We attempted a peaceful resolution and he jumped off the deep end, which caused me to react.
If you know me, my love for people runs deep in no way, shape or form.
Do I think my reaction was perfect?
It was provoked.
I do want it to be known, being from New York, my love for taxi drivers and the public transportation system runs deep.
It's been more pleasant run-ins than that.
Either way, I'm moving in from this situation knowing I could have handled it better.
I've never heard anybody say they actually loved the taxi driver.
No, what she did wasn't one.
Why do people apologize?
I'm tired of people that apologize.
The taxi cab cut her off.
They got into an argument.
The taxi cab got a little crazy.
Her security yoked them up.
There's no reason to apologize.
Well, she was yelling at her security guy,
beat his ass, beat his ass.
Maybe he needed his ass beat.
I don't know.
She was all in his face.
The taxi cab driver grabbed him first.
Yeah, beat his ass.
I don't know the full context of the story. Keep your head to yourself.
So I'm just talking right now.
You also don't want to put your security in a position
where they might get in trouble for beating someone's ass.
I ain't gonna front.
Sometimes taxi cab drivers cut you off
in a way where they need their ass beaten.
I'm not gonna lie.
I think that's not...
Security's responsibility is not to do that.
You try to resolve a situation as peacefully as possible.
Taxi cab almost cut me off so crazy, almost crashed and died.
Yes, he needed to get his ass beat.
Sometimes they drive crazy.
Maybe y'all are misconstruing security with a goon.
Because that's a goon's job.
Maybe that's security goons.
You know what I'm saying?
You don't want those.
You don't want goon-arity.
Goon-arity. Goon-arity. You don't want goon's job. Maybe that's security goons. You don't want those. You don't want goon-erity. Goon-erity.
Goon-erity.
You don't want goon-erity.
You know what I'm saying?
You want real security.
Goonery.
You know what I'm saying?
Security, yes.
You don't want a goon security.
You don't want goon-erity.
Goon-erity.
Goon-erity.
You don't want goon-erity.
I got what you're saying.
They can escalate a situation.
Goonery.
There you go.
Goonery.
Goonery.
You don't want goonery.
There's a lot of people out there that have goons.
All right. I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. Goonery instead of security. Goonery. There you go. Sagoonery. Sagoonery. You don't want sagoonery. It's a lot of people out there that have sagoons. All right.
I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report.
Sagoonery instead of security.
Sagoonery.
Sagoonery.
You don't want no sagoonery.
All right.
Well, we got front page news next.
What are we talking about, Yee?
Well, let's talk about the judge who sentenced DeAndre Somerville to 10 days in jail for
oversleeping for jury duty.
We'll tell you what the progress has been with that.
All right.
We'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Ye right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front-page news.
Now in Monday Night Football,
the 49ers crushed the Browns 31-3.
49ers are undefeated, man.
To all the 49ers fans out there,
like my man E-40,
like my man Black from Mouse Corner, South Carolina,
I literally just told Black just now, I'm like,
it's good to see you repping your 49ers 25-plus years later.
You know, you remember, you know, for real.
Because we was these football fans in middle school and high school, you know?
Yeah.
Consistent.
And congratulations to the Yankees.
My Yankees, they swept the Twins.
Now, they're going to play the winner of the Rays versus the Astros. I'm excited about this.
I hope the Yankees make it to the World Series. My dad
has never been to a World Series before.
When we were kids, I just couldn't afford it, but now I can
and I'm going to take him and the kids, make it a big family.
I think it'll be great. So please, Yankees, make it.
I thought if you're from Queens, you've got to be a Mets fan.
A lot of people from Queens
are. My dad worked near Yankee Stadium, so we
always got Yankee Stadium tickets as a kid, so
we used to go to Yankee games.
So that was a Yankee fan.
If the Mets were in this position, would you be rooting for the Mets?
Would you be saying my Mets?
No, I've always been a Yankees fan.
Yeah, he's always been a Yankees fan.
He'll wear a Mets hat, though.
For Queens, if it matches.
Somebody note this for next year, you know, years to come.
You know, even if I'm not here, I want to make sure that, you know,
I want to make sure that, you know, Envy's consistent with his Yankees.
I'm a Yankees fan.
Just like I'm a Giants fan.
But anyway, what else are we talking about, Yee?
Well, let's talk about the judge who sentenced DeAndre Somerville to 10 days in jail because he overslept and didn't show up for jury duty.
The judge has said that 21-year-old DeAndre has actually shown remorse for what he's done
because DeAndre wrote a letter to the judge.
He said, it was an immature decision that I made
and I paid the price for my freedom.
He said, before my hearing,
I walked into the courtroom a free man
with no criminal record.
I left a criminal in handcuffs.
That's just for oversleeping.
Now the judge said,
I know he's been totally rehabilitated
and that he also ordered probation
because he wanted other people to understand that serving on a jury is serious business, deserving of attention, respect and adherence to their oath.
So he said the publicity surrounding the case made this clear.
So he doesn't feel like that punishment is necessary anymore.
I need that judge to shut the F up forever.
Rehabilitated from what?
From oversleeping?
Goodness gracious.
When he learned not to oversleep now?
The hell are we talking about? What is he
rehabilitated from? According to
friends and family too, they told the judge that
young DeAndre helps care for his disabled
grandfather and he volunteers in the community
as well. Young DeAndre did nothing wrong.
He's a 21-year-old kid who overslept
for jury duty. There's no reason he should
have got 10 days in jail. He had no criminal
record. Pretty much probation.
Like 150 hours community service and a fine.
Come on, man.
Knock it off.
You're just trying to make an example out of him because he was black.
And the judge said that in but so many words when he said he was the only African-American on the jury.
Correct.
All right.
Now, speaking of judges, man, a federal judge dismissed Donald Trump's effort to keep his tax returns from being turned over to a New York grand jury.
So it looks like he will have to turn over those tax returns.
I don't know when he's going to do it, if it's going to happen, but he will.
Now, Donald Trump tweeted out yesterday the radical left Democrats have failed on all fronts.
So now they are pushing local New York City and state Democrat prosecutors to go get President Trump.
A thing like this has never happened to any president before.
Not even close.
Trump, every president has to turn in their taxes.
Right.
That's why this has never happened because we've never had this issue before.
But this is going to be good because we get to see who we spent the money on when he had to pay people off.
That should all be there and all his write-offs.
Yeah, you'll see all that.
All the money he spent.
Right.
And all the tax breaks that he got and all the bankruptcy filings and everything.
Correct.
But who knows?
You know, he's been stalling out everything.
So he's acting like he doesn't have to do it.
All right.
Well, that is your Front Page News.
All right.
Thank you, Miss Yee.
Now, during the rumors, you talked about Ellen and George Washington.
George Washington.
George Washington.
How old do you think Ellen is?
George Bush.
Now, we were talking about they were both at the game,
and people were mad about this, and this is what she had to say about it.
Here's the thing. I'm friends with George Bush.
In fact, I'm friends with a lot of people who don't share the same beliefs that I have.
We're all different, and I think that we've forgotten that that's okay that we're all different.
For instance, I wish people wouldn't wear fur.
I don't like it, but I'm friends with people who wear fur.
But just because I don't agree with someone on everything doesn't mean that I'm not going to be friends with them.
When I say be kind to one another, I don't mean only the people that think the same way that you do.
I mean, be kind to everyone.
George W. Bush is interesting because I remember when everyone thought he was the Antichrist and that he was behind 9-11.
Like it was just all type of things about George W. Bush.
Then they started to love him again for some some odd reason, because I guess him and Michelle used to, First Lady Obama, used to sit by each other all the time.
And then I don't get it.
Now they're mad at Ellen for sitting with him.
Like, I don't understand the ebbs and flows of people's love with George W. Bush.
Well, let's open up the phone line.
He just never seemed that smart.
800-585-1051.
Can you be friends with someone that doesn't share the same views as you?
Like, for instance, could you be friends with a Trump supporter?
Yeah.
I'm sure we all are.
800-585-1051.
It's different to work for somebody.
I mean, because you don't know what somebody's views is as your boss,
but friends is a little different.
It depends what they support Donald Trump for.
If you have a conversation with most Trump supporters,
they'll tell you they support him for financial reasons.
Maybe for everything.
Maybe the fact that maybe finances,
maybe they feel the same thing about immigration.
Can you be friends with somebody like that?
I got to hear their views.
I got to hear exactly why they feel the way that they feel.
800-585-1051.
Can you be friends with someone that doesn't share the same views as you?
If it's just rooted in like racism and bigotry and hate, 500-585-1051. Can you be friends with someone that doesn't share the same views as you?
If it's just rooted in, like, racism and bigotry and hate,
then I would be like, well, why do you have a racist, bigoted friend?
You know, because you didn't just find that out because he started to support Trump.
Maybe you did.
I mean, you know, sometimes there's a lot of people out there that necessarily don't share their views,
but then the fact that they vote for Trump,
maybe they feel like immigrants are stealing jobs,
maybe they want tax breaks.
But can you be fair with somebody like that?
The majority of people I know who voted for Trump,
voted for Trump, number one,
because they support their party,
which is the Republicans,
and number two,
is because it was for financial reasons.
All right, well, 800-585-1051.
Let's talk about it.
It's The Breakfast Club.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,
but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,
learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams.
I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.
For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.
And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Like grace.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before listen to on purpose with jay shetty on the
iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts it's topic time
call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with The Breakfast Club.
Let's talk about it.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Ellen and her relationship with George Bush.
People were mad that they seen him at the Cowboys game, and this is what she had to say after.
Here's the thing.
I'm friends with George Bush.
In fact, I'm friends with a lot of people who don't share the same beliefs that I
have. We're all different, and I think that we've forgotten that that's okay that we're all
different. For instance, I wish people wouldn't wear fur. I don't like it, but I'm friends with
people who wear fur. But just because I don't agree with someone on everything doesn't mean
that I'm not going to be friends with them. When I say be kind to one another, I don't mean only
the people that think the same way that you do.
I mean, be kind to everyone.
800-585-1051.
Can you be friends with somebody that you don't necessarily have the same beliefs in?
All right.
Now, start with you, Yee.
Can you be friends with somebody?
It depends on how strong those beliefs are.
If somebody I feel is a detrimental person, not a good person, a racist person,
I can't see myself being friends
with somebody like that. But as far
as beliefs, can I not agree with you
on certain things? Absolutely. I have friends
who, there's plenty of things that we don't agree
with each other on. But I think fundamentally,
if I don't think you're a good person, I wouldn't
be friends with you anyway. Now, what do you think,
Charlamagne? I could
have a conversation with, oh, I keep being like this to Charlamagne? Um, I could have a conversation with, with, with, with,
oh, I keep being like
just to Trump,
use the Trump as example.
I could have a conversation
with a Trump supporter.
I could be friends
with a Trump voter.
I think it's a difference.
Like, you know,
I can have a conversation
with you, you know,
if you're a Trump supporter,
but if you're just,
if you voted for Trump,
I could be your friend
because I feel like,
you know, most Trump voters
I know voted for him
because of their own
self-interest.
Most of those interests
are financial, but they can admit that what Trump is now doing is wrong and unpatriotic.
A Trump supporter who still supports this fascist regime.
I don't think I could be friends with you, but I could have a conversation with you because I just feel and I also feel sorry for some conservatives because they have let Trump come in and really change the narrative of the whole party.
Like the Trump was a different than typical conservatives.
And that's why when traditional Republicans
don't speak out against him,
people just lump them all together.
But I have plenty of conservative friends,
and a lot of them work in this building.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I...
It depends.
So we can use the Trump situation.
Yeah, I'm friends with people
that voted for Trump,
but not voted for Trump
because of the fact that he's a racist
or the fact what he wants to do with immigrants.
But like you said, because
they make a lot of money and they feel like
Trump will give them a lot of business breaks.
And he has. Other than that,
they know that he's a nasty and horrible
individual. But like you said, they voted for
him for their self.
I just think support.
Those two don't sound like good people.
I don't care about everybody else.
I only care about myself.
I'm definitely voting my interest in 2020.
You know what I'm saying?
But support and voting are two different things.
Yeah, you can't say that.
And the reason you can't say that is because a lot of people that voted for Trump are people
that were broke and had nothing all their life and worked hard.
And now they're doing great and they don't want to be taxed and they don't want to be
double taxed when they give their money
to their kids.
So they didn't know
he was going to be such a racist.
They just knew
that he was going to have
a lot of tax breaks.
So forget all the racial profiling
and not letting people
in the country
and kicking immigrants out
and ripping families apart.
I just care about my tax breaks.
Well, yeah.
I don't know.
That's how a lot of people feel.
And they didn't know
he was going to do all that
when he got in the office.
But they know now. Now they know. I mean, now they're not supporting him. And that's why me. That's how a lot of people feel. And they didn't know he was going to do all that when he got in the office. But they know now.
Now they know.
I mean, now they're not supporting him.
And that's why I said there's a difference between support and voting.
If you just voted for him, then you voted because of your self-interest,
but you can admit that what he's doing is wrong and unpatriotic,
and you probably wouldn't vote for him again.
But a supporter still supports him no matter what.
And they support all his racism, and they support this fascist regime that we're under.
I couldn't be friends with a supporter.
Correct.
But if you voted, yeah, we can have a conversation.
We can be friends.
Let's go to the phone lines.
Hello, who's this?
My name is Sasha.
Hey, Sasha, can you be friends with someone
that doesn't share the same views as you?
Yes, indeed.
I believe so.
I'm in a relationship with a man who is a Sunni Muslim
and I practice Ifa.
So while he's in there praying to Allah, I'm lighting candles for my woman.
It's possible.
It's kind of weird.
We have interesting conversations, but we work out.
What about when y'all want to do the ooh-ah?
Oh, that's really great.
Okay, okay.
Y'all find common ground there, huh?
Thank you, brother.
All you need is three things in common.
And the three things that people have in common
are usually drugs and alcohol.
You know what I'm saying?
Sex.
And that's about it.
You said three.
I was about to say music,
but it's not even music.
Music is a universal language,
but everybody don't like the same music.
800-585-1051. Can you be friends
with someone that doesn't share the same views as you?
Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Call me.
Add your opinion to The Breakfast Club topic.
Come on.
800-585-1051.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Ellen and George Bush.
They were at the Cowboys game, and people were mad.
Yeah, I was mad, too, the fact that they were at the Cowboys game.
But people were mad that they were actually together.
I thought you were just mad about that game.
Well, I was actually happy because the Cowboys lost, but...
So they don't like George W. Bush again?
I guess not.
Because there was a period
where George W. Bush...
Y'all think people hated Trump.
People didn't like George W. Bush.
Correct.
They thought he was the Antichrist.
Correct.
I think people were confused
about Ellen being with him
just because she's a lesbian
and his views on homosexuals.
I don't know what George W. Bush's views
are on homosexuality.
I have no idea.
So the question is, can you be friends with someone that
doesn't share the same views as you?
And Michelle Obama said George W. Bush is like
her, that's who she sits by
at every event. They're like friends.
Hello, who's this?
This is T. Hey T, can you be friends with someone
that doesn't share the same views as you?
Well, my boyfriend currently
does not have any spiritual beliefs. And I believe in God and he doesn't share the same views as you? Well, my boyfriend currently does not have any, like, spiritual beliefs.
And I believe in God, and he doesn't.
We talked about, you know,
why I believe and why he doesn't.
But right now, we just don't force
our views on one another.
Because, like, from my perspective,
I just feel like, you know,
religion is your own personal relationship.
So you can't force anybody to build a relationship with God.
So I feel like, you know, when the time comes, eventually he may see the light.
He might not.
But, you know, I don't let it affect our relationship.
Okay.
All right.
Thank you, Mama.
Hello, who's this?
Oh, this is Tatiana.
Hey, Tatiana.
Can you be friends with someone that doesn't share the same views as you?
First off, I want to say absolutely yes.
Like, in my life right now, I'm saved.
I got plenty of friends that's not.
So I can be the influence.
Secondly, it's Ellen.
Ellen's my best friend.
Ellen is great.
I'm telling you.
Ellen ain't met me yet, y'all.
But Ellen's my best friend.
And all these people that got Paul's order, they're going to have to go through me now.
Okay.
If you pay attention, you watch Ellen.
She is the example that we all need.
She can be kind and be cool with other people.
I'm telling you.
She's dope.
I'm her best friend.
Let me ask you a question because I didn't see this story, so I don't know where this is coming from.
Is it the LGBT community that's upset or just people in general? It's just people that follow.
Just people on social media that follow her.
So let me ask you a question. Why is nobody upset
over George W. Bush and Michelle Obama?
They have done interviews
gushing over each other and how
they have such a great relationship and there's pictures
of them hugged up together. I never saw Michelle
get that kind of backlash. Because it's Michelle.
And Michelle loves all
not Michelle. Ellen loves all of them.
Ellen loves everybody.
It's just somebody
I need to be mad at.
Yeah, I'm just confused.
I haven't even heard
the whole story yet.
I just heard y'all
on the radio this morning
that's my best friend.
Y'all can't come forward.
Yeah, I'm just confused
that when people choose
to be upset about things,
I don't know.
All right, thank you, mama.
Ray, you there?
I sure am.
Hey, Ray.
Can you be friends
with someone that doesn't
share the same values as you? I be friends with someone that doesn't share the
same values as you um i'm okay with someone that doesn't share the same values as me um i agree
with what you guys said earlier but it depends on like this was because of immigration and stuff
like that depends on why they think the way they think because you never know until you've heard
them out yeah they be having different views than me. They be telling me stuff that I be like, oh, interesting.
I didn't know that was the case.
Yeah, you learn a lot about a person when you realize they don't agree.
Right.
I was talking to someone earlier because my ex-husband,
he actually agrees with Donald Trump on whole immigration things.
He feels like they're stealing jobs and stuff like that.
And people laugh at him because, see, I'm black and he's
white and we have a biracial child.
So I don't understand how those
racist things are coming out of his mouth
when it's like he just completely
forgot about the X chocolate in his life.
Right, we see y'all
divorced now. Oh yeah,
yeah, it's been 11 years and I
don't miss a single second.
That's because a house divided can't really stand religion,
and politics will definitely divide a house.
What's the moral of the story, guys?
And I do want to say one thing that people were upset with Ellen.
They said, Ellen, this isn't just a simple difference of opinion.
George Bush, his administration, and his colleagues actively discriminated
and worked against the LGBT community.
So they said it's low standards.
That's what the issue is.
So I'm wondering if it's the LGBT community
making all those notes
because I didn't hear this story
because I really be confused
because even when Michelle Obama
was embracing George W. Bush
the way they are
and you can Google it
and see so many different articles
of them talking about their friendship.
Nobody was upset at that.
So I don't understand
why all of a sudden
they're upset at Ellen
because last time I checked,
Michelle Obama was liberal as hell.
Right?
You know, I don't know.
But the moral of the story is, man,
I have a very diverse
group of friends.
Most of my friends,
we don't share the same views,
but I know that they are authentic.
I know that they are honest.
And I know that even when
I don't agree with them,
it's coming from a real place.
And I know they are great people.
And I don't like being
in echo chambers.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't feel like that's how
you challenge your knowledge.
That's not how you challenge
your wisdom.
That's not how you learn
by constantly just being around people that are saying the same things over and over and over.
All right.
Well, we got rumors on the way.
Yes, we are going to talk about since we're discussing Michelle Obama, a new project that she has coming out.
All right.
Well, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
All right.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. What's happening? Good morning. Now we got rumors on the way. What's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
What's happening?
Good morning.
Now, we got rumors on the way.
What are we talking about, Yee?
Oh, my gosh.
We're going to talk about this list that people are upset about in Atlanta, the top 50 Atlanta
rappers.
Can I ask a question?
Why do people keep getting upset about these lists when we don't even know who's making
these lists?
Who makes these lists?
Where are these lists coming from?
Why are we validating these nut-ass people?
Salute to Philly.
Why are we... I don't mean that there's nut-ass people? Salute to Philly. Why are we...
I don't mean that there's nut-ass people in Philly.
What?
Nut-ass is slang.
That just happened.
Well, I had to clear that up.
I know there's stupid people out there,
but nut-ass is slang in Philly,
so that's why I was shouting them out.
But who are these nut-ass people that are making these lists,
and why are we validating them?
I don't know.
I don't know why we act like these lists are real.
Yes, like, why do we get upset?
Like, who cares?
This is a random list pops up on social media, and people get up in arms about it. We don't know who's making these lists are real. Yes, like why do we get upset? Like who cares? This is a random list pops up on social media
and people get up in arms about it.
We don't know who's making these lists.
Who cares?
Stop validating these fools, man.
These nut-ass people.
All right.
Food to Philly.
Now the rumors are next.
Keep it locked.
This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
What's happening?
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk this Atlanta rapper list.
She's spilling the tea.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, there is a list circulating of the top 50 rappers in Atlanta.
Why are we even talking about this?
Because everybody was talking about this?
Because everybody was talking about it.
T.I. had this to say about the list.
Aries has something to say.
My daddy don't care about my list.
I need to get your priorities together.
Say, get out of my business.
Can I get out of my business?
We don't have to do what everybody else is doing,
especially when we don't even know where this list came from.
T.I. was number two on that list.
Who cares?
Who created this list?
By the way, Andre 3000 was number one on the list.
21 Savage said F that vagina ass list.
FYI.
Who else is on the list?
Who are the top ten?
I'm just curious now.
Andre 3000, T.I., CeeLo, Ludacris, Killer Mike, Psyhida Prince, 2 Chainzz, Big Boi, J.I.D., and B.O.B. You're giving validity to a list
and we don't even know where it came from. Eric Trump Jr.
could have made this list. He's a rapper? Okay.
I don't know.
Who knows who made this list, man?
Why do we fall for this trick?
Why is the list trick the trick this year?
It just generates a conversation
for people.
People care.
People care about lists. People post themselves on all think it's ridiculous. Yeah, people care about lists.
People post themselves on all kinds of lists all the time.
I care about lists based off who actually created the list
because some people's opinion does not matter
on these type of subjects.
And when you look at the list and you see how out of order it is
and some of the people that they have on it
and some of the people that's not on it,
you realize, like, okay, this person don't know what they're talking about.
All right, now let's talk about Oprah.
She made a visit to Morehouse College, and while visiting, she also made a donation
as she celebrated the 30th anniversary of her scholarship program.
I'm proud of everybody in attendance at this school who is seeking to know more clearly who you are, the value you hold,
and how you will share that value with the rest of the world. I was really surprised to learn that
it's been 30 years since I made that $12 million donation to Morehouse. And so today, I would like
to add $13 million to that.
Wow.
Let me add that up real quick.
What's 13 plus 12?
25.
Okay, 25.
So over and drop the cool $25 million on Morehouse College.
Drop one of the clues bombs for open win free.
Absolutely.
And she's had this scholarship program for 30 years,
so she's been donating all that time.
Scholarship program is great.
That's great.
All right.
Now, Evelyn Lozada is is suing og her basketball wife's
co-star and that is for defamation according to evelyn lazada ever since og called her a racist
bigot on social media she's been losing all kinds of work she said uh evelyn's message said nobody
watches you harder than the people that can't stand you and she posted a picture of uh an
orangutan a laughing orangutan.
And OG took offense to that and said, wow, so now black women are monkeys.
Everyone boycott this trash box.
You are disgusting.
And then OG also said, and there it is.
Show your true colors, you racist bigot.
You called CeCe Ling Ling Jackie a cockroach and now me a monkey.
Well, here's some audio of Evelyn from Basketball Wives.
You always have a problem, Eve from basketball wives you always have a problem
evil lynn no i have a problem with you everybody i have a problem with you lily what's lily the
nail shop girl so because i guess cc asian she called her lily and called her the nail shop girl
so evelyn said as a result of og calling her a racist, she basically lost several brand endorsements
and now she's suing for defamation
and infliction of emotional distress.
I don't know how far that's going to go.
I don't know either.
I don't know why you're holding back, Envy.
I know Envy want to get off so bad.
Envy watching this.
He don't want to get off because I'm here.
No, I don't want to get off.
I see you holding back.
Get off.
I like the other part when they was fighting
and she was patting her poom poom and she was gyrating. That was the that boy. I see you holding back. Get off. I like the other boy when he was fighting and she was patting her poom-poom and she
was gyrating.
Hey.
That was the good part.
Hey, I see you.
Why are you gyrating?
And why did you pat your poom-poom?
Why was you saying, hey, hey, hey, cheering me on?
I like to see my girl go.
That's my bitch over there.
Go, bitch.
I'm in Detroit.
I don't know what's going on in there right now.
You wake up and call me a bitch.
I'm going to follow you home.
Wow. All right. Well, to follow you home. Wow.
All right.
Well, let's move on.
Joker.
Ever since the movie Joker came out, there's been a spike on searches, and those searches
have been on Pornhub.
Apparently, certain very enthusiastic Joker fans are looking for any type of related content
to Joker on Pornhub.
Do they have Joker porn?
Why don't you go on Pornhub and not gonna look at it's not gonna be in my
search engine oh my all right you were asking I thought you wanted to know so
yeah so that's a been a big search for people I don't know if that seems
appealing to me why would Joker and porn help with it what's the correlation
yeah and you know how important they actually spoof a lot of these movies in real life situations.
Oh, so people are Googling, is it Joker Pornhub?
I guess so.
Oh, okay.
All right.
Now, Jason Mitchell from The Chi, formerly from The Chi, he is enrolled in counseling
and personal development.
That's all because of the allegations against him.
He's completed a mental health course to get help in relation to the
misconduct allegations that have been made
by people that he's worked with. He lost
two acting gigs because of this, and
now he's taking some steps to
try to get things together. Do you think
Holly would hire him again? I mean,
I don't know. I mean, listen, I don't mind
him doing that. You know, go do the work.
You know, if you've got anger management problems or
whatever it is, go do the work on yourself.
You know what I mean? To find some healing.
Maybe after you find some healing, they've accepted people
in Hollywood that have done way worse.
Listen, I'm all for people
doing whatever they need to do to get
themselves right and get better.
Also, we still don't really know what he did.
That is true.
You know what I'm saying?
But if counseling helps him, if whatever he has to do
helps him personally, we're all for that.
Whether or not you work in his business again, I think if you feel like it's necessary, then make it happen.
Yeah, I think that's the most important thing.
The most important thing is that, you know, Jason finds, you know, whatever healing he's looking for.
He corrects whatever wrongs he got going on within him.
Correct.
All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
Charlemagne! Yes. Who you giving that down on? I need the NFL to come to the front your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. Charlemagne!
Yes.
Who are you giving that donkey to?
I need the NFL to come to the front of the congregation.
We'd like to have a little war with them.
The whole NFL?
Yes.
All right.
We'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
I was born a donkey.
It's the donkey of the devil.
You see, donkey, donkey.
Bunch of jay-jays. It's time for the donkey of the day. That's pretty funny. This is Donkey. One, two, three, four.
It's time for the Donkey of the Day.
That's pretty funny.
Charlamagne the devil?
Possibly.
The Breakfast Club.
Yes.
Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, October 8th goes to the NFL.
Now, I really don't understand the rules of the NFL.
Like, I don't know what they accept, and I don't know what they don't accept.
I don't know what they find appropriate, and I don't know what they accept and I don't know what they don't accept. I don't know what they find appropriate and I don't know what they find inappropriate.
But if there's one thing the NFL should embrace, it's God.
Okay?
See, if I was an NFL player, every second, every minute, every hour of my life,
I'd be praying to the most high that I don't suffer a career-threatening injury,
that I don't get paralyzed, that I don't die on that football field, period.
Okay?
I know football, like life, is a game of chance.
But one thing about this game of chance,
when you operate like your life is rigged
by a higher power and things are going to work out
regardless because it's God engineering this thing
and not you, then things seem to work out.
Now, even when they don't,
you still have to give God the glory
because I personally feel like
we are just all God's children, okay?
You know, I'm not a religious person,
but I am a spiritual person.
And being that I'm a spiritual person, I will always give God the glory in everything I do.
And I don't give a damn who gets upset about it.
I don't think anyone or any company has the right to intervene when it comes to someone's faith or religious beliefs.
Okay?
Let people worship.
How do you want to worship?
Now, in the case of the NFL, there's a young man named Demario Davis.
He plays for the New Orleans Saints.
Now, even though, okay, the New Orleans Saints started this two-game losing streak my Cowboys are currently on,
I can still be objective and point out an injustice that is happening to one of their players, okay?
See, Demario Davis was fined $7,000 for wearing a headband.
Not just because he was wearing a headband, but because of what the headband said.
See, the NFL has a personal message policy.
According to the NFL rule book, any personal message is prohibited on the football field,
even if that message is about our creator.
Let's go to WXIA 11 Alive for the report, please.
Linebacker Demario Davis was hit with a $7,000 fine over the weekend for wearing a headband
that said, man of God.
Now, that was against the Seahawks in week three when it comes to personal messages the league says no thanks that is considered a uniform violation now Davis moves forward he's going to face Christ, man of God, simple man of God, that's what I am.
Salute to all the women of God out there as well.
We're all children of God, okay?
We are all children of the Most High.
Look, even if you don't believe in God per se and you're an atheist,
you have to admit that there's something out there bigger than you.
But even if you don't, so what?
Okay, are the people in the NFL atheists?
All right, they must be because why would man of God upset anyone?
This reminds me of a few years ago when D'Angelo Williams was playing for the Steelers
and he was fined for the personal message.
He was fined because of the personal message policy
because he wore eye black with a pink breast cancer awareness ribbon on it
during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Now you're telling me, NFL, that this week is Mental Health Awareness Week. Thursday is World Mental Health Awareness Month. Now, you're telling me, NFL, that, you know, this week is Mental Health Awareness Week.
Thursday is World Mental Health Awareness Day.
If a man was to wear a green ribbon, which represents mental health awareness,
if he was to wear that on Thursday night football, he would be fined.
OK, now the toll that football takes on your body, the toll that football takes on your spirit,
and most importantly, the toll that football takes on your mind.
If it's one place where mental health awareness should be raised, it's the NFL, but based on this BS
personal message policy, that
player would be fined $7,000
just like DeMario Davis was?
Now, I tell y'all all the time,
I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary,
but I think this personal message policy
has to be adjusted. I think it should be
negative personal messages, okay?
Our self-serving personal messages.
There is nothing self-serving about raising awareness
for breast cancer on the football field.
There is nothing self-serving about giving glory to God,
especially when you're a saint, okay?
Do you know how many Bible thumpers love the NFL?
Do you know how many teams the NFL has in the Bible belt?
So as long as the messaging is not self-serving
or encouraging violence to others,
which is wild because the NFL is a blood sport
that we love to watch because of the violence
that happens to other people.
As long as that personal messaging isn't negative,
who cares?
By the way, if the NFL doesn't want its players
to give off personal messaging,
then the NFL shouldn't do any personal messaging.
Just keep it all sports all the time.
No personal messaging about supporting veterans.
No personal messaging about supporting veterans. No personal messaging
about social justice. No
personal messaging like NFL
Play 60 that encourages youth health
and wellness. If the players can't have
any personal messaging,
neither can the
NFL. Alright? If that
happens, cool. If not, they have to keep
getting called out for their hypocrisy.
Please give the NFL the sweet sounds and the hammer tones.
That's a nut-ass policy.
Salute to Philly. As I wear my sweatsuit that says, covered by God. That's a nut ass policy Salute to Philly
As I wear my sweatsuit
That says covered by God
That's right
It's just a nut ass policy
Especially being that the NFL
Does so much personal messaging
They got all of these
Different initiatives that
You know
They push
I guess what could be called
Personal messages
But when a player does it
It's a problem
I don't get it
Alright
Well thank you for that donkey today
Now up next Pretty V will be joining us.

No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my god.
What is that?

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams.
I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.
For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.
And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.

so this is how it was
so I went to school
at Santa Gustin University in Raleigh, North Carolina.
St. Augustine?
I'm just kidding, guys.
Stop playing.
I'm sorry, guys.
And then I did four years of broadcasting.
And then I had my own show called Lounge 22.
We played the 80s, 90s, and today's music.
And we talked about relationship topics and all that good stuff.
And then I stopped.
And then I worked at a pop station in Charlotte.
And then I, before then, I was working at B-103, interned there.
So then I stopped doing that.
And then didn't have a job.
Depressed, you know,
dealing with this dude.
Like real depression?
Like real, not real,

oh my God, like it was just,
I was just in a dark area.
Like I was just like,
I was just into stuff.
Like, oh my God, what's my plans?
What do I have to do?
I don't even know what to do.
Like I was doing radio.
I was that girl in college.
What's the outlet?
How old were you around this time?
I like this kind of story.
How old were you?
26 at the time.
I'll be 28 on the 13th.
That's a couple years ago.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah.
Stuff just started popping up.
Maybe it's three years on social media,
but I feel like it was just a year that I really took off.
And then you met DaBaby.
I used to work for them.
Yes, I used to work for them.
Let's not skip over the dude
that ruined her life too now.
No, don't do that.
Okay.
Who was this dude?
Oh my God, this,
Jesus,
it was just, you know,
this F boy.
I wasn't depressed by him though.
I was depressed trying to figure out
what the outlet was,
what I was trying to do with myself.
And then I was like,
you know what?
I'm just going to get on my grind.
I started applying for radio stuff,
and that's when I got the job in Charlotte,
working at a pop station.
And then I got viral,
and I was fighting myself in the street,
and then that's when the social media thing took off.
Fighting yourself.
Yeah, I was like, let my hair go.
Oh, yeah, she's fighting her hair.
Yeah.
Let my hair go, let my hair go.
You were for a hotel, too, at one time, right?
I did.
Oh, my God, how'd you know that?
Now you're being nosy.
Tell me, how did you know that?
No. Okay. That was my business. Hold on. How did you know that? I know you're being nosy. I mean, how did you know that? No.

Definitely that.
And then that's when Arnold Taylor, who works alongside the baby.
Salute to Arnold.

And then he was like, yo, I got a job for you.
Administrative work and all that stuff.
I said, all right, let me know.
I was always emailing him back, and I was always trying to let him know,
like, hey, I'm still here.
Don't forget about me.
But I still had to make bread, so I had to work at a hotel.
And what's so crazy is at that time, you know, me coming from college
and being involved in everything, people didn't know, like, I was working at a hotel.
And no shade I was ashamed because I was like, oh, my God, like, I know I have to make, you know, do what I got to do.
But I was like, oh, my God, like, I'm not where I want to be.
You know, I was telling people I was working for the social media.
I was doing social media for the Fairfield.
Like, you ain't doing social media for the Fairfield.
You run Fairfield. Like, you ain't doing social media for the Fairfield. You run Fairfield
Twitter.
I was like,
no. I said, I do social media for On The Marriott.
That's why we're having a job, though. I know,
but it was just like, I just was trying to just keep
up what I had going on, and that was the problem
because of what God did was he had to set me back a little
bit. Girl, no. You gotta work to get
there. I think that's very honorable. You know what I tell people
all the time? You can chase your dreams and deal with your reality at the same time.
Exactly.
So what did you do for the baby?
What did you do for the baby?
I was doing administrative work for Arnold,
and then I was doing his college shows,
like helping him plan the college shows,
booking him to the college.
And I had him at St. Aug.
He did other colleges.
But just pushing him.
He's been doing the music.
He's been confident.
He's just been that dude.
And Arnold was like, look, we're just trying to push him a little bit more.
So we need your help on certain things.
Cause you had that audience already.
So let's let, I was, we was doing skits together.
We was whatever.
And he still had that drive.
And I was like, damn, this look good too.
But I can't mess up my job.
Cause damn.
When did you know you could capitalize off your energy and comedic talent?
Once Arnold fired me, you know. What did he fire you for? Oh my God, comedic talent? Once Arnold fired me.
What did he fire you for?
Oh, my God.
Corita.
I got fired, okay?
For what?
Because I was focused on comedy.
I was doing his thing, but then I was, like, on the side trying to figure out,
looking up different comedy stuff on there.
You know, Arnold's the type of guy, he taught me, he said,
never to be comfortable, and I was getting comfortable because I was around everybody, and I was like, what up? You know, Arnold's the type of guy he always taught me. He said never to be comfortable, and I was getting comfortable
because I was around everybody, and I was like,
what up? You know, what we doing today? Arnold, I want to get on the road
with him. The baby, I want to whatever, whatever, whatever.
He said, no, you need to be in the office.
Being more of a friend and family. Yeah, yeah, than trying to work.
And I got comfortable, and then
he seen that, and he was like, yo, you need to chase
what you want to do. This is not what you want to do.
But then I was just like, yeah, he's right.
This is not for me. I need to really chase what I want to do. I got fired from seven jobs to do. But then I was just like, yeah, he's right. This is not for me. I need to really chase what
I want to do. I got fired from seven jobs
in my life. I got fired from Taco Bell
by my sister. Wow. And my sister
was the manager, so she was just like, get the f*** on.
This ain't for you. Right. Yeah, McDonald's
definitely wasn't for me, honey. I seen this dude.
McDonald's fired you? Definitely. You worked at McDonald's?
I did. And then ended up getting a McDonald's commercial?
I know, right? Tell them this story.
That's what I'm saying.
Got fired.
Wow.
Yeah, you know, flipping the burgers.
I told them, I was like, I can't do this.
They told me I had to wear the apron and it was just like the little thing over my head.
I was like, oh, then I seen this cute dude coming in the car.
I was like, yo, I got to take this off.
Can you go to my high school?
And then he was like, yo.
Then after that I got fired.
What makes you think he wouldn't holler at you at McDonald's?
No, but still, like, it's just, I don't know.
I was just like, yo, I'm at McDonald's.
You know back in the day if a pretty girl worked at a fast food restaurant?
No, this was back in the day.
This was like a couple of years ago.
Back in the day.
It was nice.
Right.
It's like, what are we talking about?
You was grown.
Right, like, no.
And at the time, it was in high school.
So, I don't know why I got fired. Right, like, no. And at the time, that was in high school, so.
And I don't know why I got fired.
I just think that I was slow at everything.
I wasn't trying to be there.
So you worked with Lil' Kim, right?
Yes, we did.
We just wrapped up Girls Cruise.
How was that?
It was amazing.
Kim is, oh, my God.
Chili, Maya, Olem, B. Simone,
Char, Marc Jacobs' husband,
and Lil' Kim's best friend.
Amazing.
Amazing, amazing, amazing.
When I was doing the red carpet,
she was like,
I don't want to interview
with nobody else,
but Vino, where she at?
And I just felt
that was just dope.
Aren't you on Kim's album
coming out?
Yes, I'm on Kim's album.
I did a skit for her.
It was throughout her album.
It's two parts of it.
You did Chance the Rapper too,
right?
We did, yeah.
I did Chance.
The same thing with him.
Just doing some skits and stuff on his record and stuff.
And you got your own music, though.
Cause that's why.
Face like, oh, pretty ho.
What?
What?
What do you like?
Ah, V-Bounce.
What?
And y'all hoes don't like me.
F***ing hoes.
Yeah, yeah.
Ron Brown's produced it.
No, cause you know, I follow you on Instagram and I find you entertaining.
And then Taylor, the girl over there with the ashy elbow, she said that...
Ah, what they do to me?
She said,
I love her song.
What's it called?
Ho Follow Me?
Follow Me.
I just follow it.
I don't remember the name.
Follow Me.
Let's play Follow Me Ho.
We could do it
if you guys want to.
Of course.
Stop, stop.
Okay, no.
So you already know
what time it is.
Yes, I'm pretty V.
You're going to be
lot dancing with me. You already know what time it is. Yes, I'm Pretty V. You're going to be locked in.
You already know what time it is.
We about to drop Follow Me, produced by Ron Brown.
Brown, you got another one.
Follow me.
You rusty.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Pretty V.
Charlamagne?
Now, who is your comedic influences?
Oh my God,
my favorite comedian
is Jim Carrey.
Really?
Jim Carrey?
Wow.
I can see that.
Jim Carrey is my guy.
Because he's an animated guy.
Yes.
Yeah, a lot of physical comedy.
Yes.
Oh my God, he's so animated.
And then it comes Martin,
of course.
And then Robin Williams
and then it goes down.
Really?
Jim Carrey.
What do you say
to the older comedians
that are against
the new comedians
that are popping on
social media?
You know, they don't give us a chance sometimes.
Sometimes a lot of people got something to say because we got it so,
they think because we getting famous so quickly, two days, you know,
you go viral, then tomorrow you're famous,
and then you're in Ellen DeGeneres' chair.
I will always try to be a student because at the end of the day,
it's something that I don't know that they are willing to teach me.
So I'm not going to just be, I'm not going to shy away and say, y'all ran through, like, y'all old now. Bye. Let's know because at the end of the day, it's something that I don't know that they are willing to teach me. So I'm not going to just be, I'm not going to shy away and say,
y'all a**es ran through, like y'all old now.
Bye.
Let's know.
Because at the end of the day, I'm still a student.
Even when I do stand-up on stage or hosting a comedy show,
sometimes I still get confused.
Sometimes I'm still nervous.
I have anxiety, all that.
So with me watching Jim Carrey when I'm on the road or whatever it is,
I'm looking for him for different jokes or different things,
how he transitioned into something or him just being animated. So, I mean,
they gonna always have something to say because this is what's
going on right now. And I mean, I just
salute to all the queens and all the brothers that paved the way
for us to do what we do. That was your first show.
It's clearly a study in your craft, though. Yeah.
I'm definitely just trying to
figure out how I can just make me
better and just try to figure out what's new. Because again,
I still gotta do social media. Still
girls that can't see me on shows 15 years I gotta be like
girl what is skid at you know they can't can't come to my show so I always got to
do something with them on the gram but I mean it is what it is skid at yeah what
is skid at girl we get it but you in Dubai but what is skid at I'm 15 I can't come to
your show so yeah no I'm serious what is sk? Oh, I thought you said what is skit was.
Like, what is skit at?
She broke it down.
She can't come to your show on 15th.
Like, skit at.
What do you mean skit?
Like, it's a skit.
Oh, a skit.
That's what I said.
A skit.
That's what I said.
You confused me.
I thought you were saying like, yeah, they like what is skit at.
So I was like, yeah, what is skit at?
You thought I was talking about Dubai.
Like, is that shit?
Yeah, I'm saying like, you're getting on to go to Dubai?
Yeah, honey, and that's what happened.
Oh, I know that.
I mean, I never had that problem.
What is skit at? I've been single for two years, so I don't know what that means. Now, honey, and that's what happened. Oh, I know that. I mean, I never had that problem. Let's get at it.
I've been single for two years, so I don't know what that means.
Now, why'd you get mad at B. Simone on Girls Cruise?
Because she brought up that you sh** on the floor.
Yo.
You pooped on the floor?
Where'd you poop at?
On the floor floor?
Like, squat over and poop?
Come on, V.
Why did y'all bring that up
Like you poop poop
Like three year old poop
Um
Now okay
I was using the restroom
And no shade
I just don't sit on
Everybody's toilet bowl
Like I just do a little one
Ow
You know gracefully
Yes there you go
And then um
I don't know
When she walked in
She said what's that on my ground
I said ground
Like a little almond or something
Almond
Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond Almond I don't know. When she walked in, she said, what's that on my ground? I said, girl, I don't know, like a little almond or something.
I said, girl, a little almond.
Girl, what are you talking about?
I said, I didn't know.
Because I was like, what are we saying, B?
That's not correct.
It was at her house?
It was at her house.
So you didn't hear it hit the floor?
No, I didn't hear that.
Why would B. Simone do that to you?
Why would you do that to her?
Yo She didn't mean to, it wasn't intentional
No, I wasn't trying to
Did you clean it up?
Definitely did, but I didn't know it was a thing
I really was going to say it's DC Young's five daughter
Because B-Symonne used to watch her
And I was like, yo, that's DC's baby doodle
That's what I mean
You blamed it on DC's baby girl, V What the f*** I'm like, do, that's DC's baby doodle. That's not me. You blamed it on DC's baby girl, V?
What the f***?
I was like, do it on Nova.
Do something.
Whatever.
The dog came or something.
And she ain't got no puppy.
So I was like, somebody.
Let's talk about your aim.
Have you done that before?
You have to have done that before.
That doesn't seem like a first timer.
First of all, no.
I know what I did. I did what I did. I don't know what happened. I didn't hear it. I know what I did.
I did what I did.
I don't know what happened.
I didn't hear it.
It is what it is.
And it was on YouTube.
Get a dog.
I'm going to get you a Shih Tzu.
A Shih Tzu?
No, I'm for real.
Because then you can always blame it on the little dog.
Instead of DC daughter.
No.
DC, I love you down.
Jackie, I love you.
I just thought it was Nova's doo-doo when I went to the, I did not know it came from me.
And I still don't think it came from me.
I'd be like, no, I'm definitely not shaking her hand.
No, but no, seriously, I really, I didn't, I thought it was D.C.'s daughter coming with her pamper.
Or I thought it was.
But it was a little pebble.
That's what I'm trying to figure out.
So it might not have been yours for real.
That's what I'm saying.
It probably was B. Simone's.
Don't try to flip it on B.
I thought it was B. Simone's. Dead ass. I thought it was hers. Period.
And that's how I took it. Like I said, yeah,
that's hers. That was my dude. Let me ask you a question. Do you ever
need a break from social media? Because social media
can wear on your mental health like a
mother f***er. Always getting opinions
of other people.
The likes,
the views.
Like,
do you ever need to take a break
just for your mental health?
Um,
yes.
Definitely.
I don't even,
I don't ride Instagram
no more like that heavy
because of,
you know,
because of that.
And the likes
and all that stuff
and you don't think
you popping no more
when you see your analytics going down. you got five million followers but then you got
five likes on a post and it's like now I'm not popping because the world says
it and this is like I'm a big overthinker and anxiety nervousness all
that so I'm like oh my god I just didn't go oh my god this person's doing this
this person and I just have to like no like this is not what it is you doing
what you got to do and yes yes, it wears me down.
Sometimes I don't even want to get on it when I see.
And I was like, no, I'm in my bad.
So let's get it.
No.
So.
And be still stuck on the doodoo.
You just said when shit goes down and that's the only thing that pop up in my mind.
Wow.
I'm not going to let them turn you into shit, VB.
That's not going to happen.
Because I know after this interview
what's going to happen,
it's going to be mad people
in your comments
with poop emojis and shit.
He's telling them to do it right now.
That's not what I'm telling them to do.
No, I'm not.
Charlotte, don't do that.
That's not what I'm telling them to do.
What you think they're going to do?
He just said that.
No, they're not.
You're going to be fine.
You get an L to all the papers.
TV might be crazy, though.
If they start calling Your TV
It only lasts
For a couple months
A couple months
That was not my doodle
I didn't know
What Beastman was talking about
MTV
VH1 tried to slide that
In the edit
So that's what I'm saying
It wasn't really me
So I don't know
So what do you do
To validate yourself now
When you post videos
If you said
You don't want to look
At the likes No all that shit.
No, I mean, I do now.
I mean, that was like, of course, we go through it still, but I don't ride it no more.
I just post and I go because I know God is going to work with everything I got out.
I'm not worried about it because if I do get into a space where I think this is what it is
and I'm just like, no, I came here with a direction and a plan.
And I'm just like, this is just something that I'm outlet.
Again, I haven't sat with the Oprah's yet.
I haven't sat with Ellen's yet.
I haven't.
So, of course, I still want to be consistent on the gram because that's what it is right now.
That's social media.
You have to be involved.
You have to be consistent.
All that.
But I don't even.
I'm like, look, it is what it is.
Honey, I'm here.
I'm at the breakfast club.

Good morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Michelle Obama.
Listen up. It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The Rumor Report.
Gossip.
Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report.
It's the Rumor Report.
The Breakfast Club.
So Michelle Obama has a new project coming out.
It's called Becoming, a guided journal for discovering your voice.
That will be released on November 19th.
It will have an introduction from Michelle Obama.
And it will have more than 150 inspiring questions and quotes that resonate with key themes in her memoir from Becoming and that are designed to help readers reflect on their personal and
family history, their goals, challenges, and dreams,
what moves them and brings them hope, and what
future they imagine for themselves and their
community. So this is a brand new book
or this is like an extension of Becoming?
It's an extension on Becoming. So basically
it's kind of like a journal, I guess, that
you can do a companion journal
to the book Becoming.
That's her memoir.
So you can reflect on your own self and help find your own voice.
I read Becoming on the way to South Africa back last year.
Great read.
I enjoyed it.
And I went to go see her.
Yes, I went to go see her at the Barclays when she did her whole discussion, when she did her tour about Becoming.
All right.
Now let's talk about chance
the rapper he'll be on carpool karaoke tonight and people are are excited for this one here's
a little snippet for tonight thank you so much for helping me get to work no problem Now, in addition to this, he's also gearing up for tomorrow.
That's when Rhythm and Flow, that's a competition show that's going to be on Netflix.
That actually premieres tomorrow night.
It's a 10 episode season.
It's going to come out over three consecutive
Wednesdays starting tomorrow night with
judges Cardi B, Chance the Rapper, and T.I.
They end up going to L.A., New York,
Chicago, and Atlanta looking for the next big rapper.
I got with Netflix and I interviewed
T.I. and Chance the Rapper
for Rhythm and Flow. It's up on
my YouTube page now. YouTube
slash C to God, C-T-H-A-G-O-D.
You can go watch them talk about Rhythm and Flow
amongst some other things.
Yeah, they're saying it's a really great competition show.
So I know we have the screener.
I haven't had a chance to see it yet,
but I'm looking forward to it.
You can watch it tomorrow.
I got my questions.
You know what I'm saying?
I wonder if hip hop would accept somebody
who won off of a competition show. You know what I'm saying? I don if hip hop would accept somebody who won off of a competition show.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't know how serious they would take that, but we'll see.
I would assume that before you got on the competition show,
you've been doing your thing, and that's how you even got on there, right?
Yes, but I just think hip hop is a different genre.
It's not like American Idol or The Voice or one of those things like that.
But, I mean, yeah, you never know.
Because it's not like they just started rapping to be on the show.
I'm sure they've been working hard until they got to that point.
Right now, Alex Trebek, he said that cancer is starting to diminish his skills for Jeopardy
and he might have to be forced out of being a host on Jeopardy soon.
He's been having his pancreatic cancer treatments and he had some words about that.
I will keep doing it as long as my
skills do not diminish and they have started to diminish i talk to the producers about this all
the time now the chemo has caused sores inside my mouth uh it makes it difficult for me to speak
and enunciate properly they said well we don, we don't notice. I said, yeah. I notice those things.
That's so damn sad, man.
I hear that story.
I hear that story and I immediately start Googling pancreatic cancer.
You know what I'm saying?
Then I start wondering if I got symptoms.
That's just the way my anxiety is set up.
I go from my legs start hurting yesterday.
I call my wife and I'm like, make me a doctor appointment.
I'm a mental hypochondriac.
I don't know what the word for that is.
You know what I'm saying?
But if I hear about it, I swear I'm going to get it.
And then I end up having a panic attack because I believe my thoughts become things.
So I think if I think about it too much, it's going to happen to me.
So it's just like, my God, man.
Praise up for Alex Trebek.
Absolutely.
Well, he was just diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer back in March.
And, you know, that's a tough diagnosis.
That's a hard one to beat.
So, again, our prayers to Alex Trebek, his family, and everything that he's going through.
He's been hosting Jeopardy since 1984.

and Persia White reuniting tonight on Black-ish on ABC.
This is a great moment for us
girlfriends for Dyedx, man.
An amazing moment.

Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.
You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show,
where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going.
That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about.
It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.
