In early 1988, federal agents raced to track down the gang they suspect of importing millions of dollars worth of heroin into New York from Asia.

Had 30 agents ready to go with shotguns and rifles and you name it. Five, six white people pushed me in the car. I'm going, what about that? Basically, your stay-at-home moms were picking up these large amounts of heroin. All you got to do is receive the package. Don't have to open it. Just accept it. She was very upset, crying.

Once I saw the gun, I tried to take his hand, and I saw the flash of light. Listen to the Chinatown Stang on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or anywhere you get your podcasts.

I haven't auditioned in like over 25 years. Oh, wow. That's a real G-talk right there. Oh, yeah. We'll talk about all that's viral and trending, with a little bit of cheesement and a whole lot of laughs. And of course, the great bevras you've come to expect. Listen to the new season of Dacius Come Again

on the Aheart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. I'm the homeguard that knows a little bit about everything and everybody. You know if you don't lie about that, right? Lauren came in hot. Hey, y'all, what's up? It's Lauren LaRosa, and this is the latest with Lauren LaRosa. This is your daily dig on all things, pop culture, entertainment news,

and all of the conversations that shake the room, baby. Now, today we have exciting news, and y'all know I like to break the news. I love for y'all to hear it from me first. This did not come. from me first. This is not one of my exclusives. But Cardi B sat down with Gail King and she revealed that she and Stefan Diggs are expecting baby number one

together. They both have kids separately, but they're expecting their first child together. Let's take a list of the Cardi. Well, well, yes, I am. I'm having a baby with my boyfriend, Stefan Diggs. Now, the interesting thing here, if you're going to address the elephant in the room or the now baby in the room, not calling the be an elephant. I'm just, y'all know what I'm trying to say. Like, trying to get to what, of course, the conversation is. And Cardi kind of alludes to it, you know, people letting her do things on

her own time in this interview is that, you know, there's been rumors for weeks now about Cardi B appearing to be pregnant because of how she physically, you know, you started to see a little bump in the belly. Now, the conversation amongst fans and just, you know, amongst people, commenting on a celebrity as they do always is whether or not it made sense for Cardi B and Stefan Diggs to be having a baby at this point in their relationship because they are you know early in the relationship they're in the honeymoon phase of the relationship and that has been the big conversation now Cardi B knows that that has been the big conversation because she addresses it with the girl king now whether you think Cardi should be at this stage where you know her

and Stefan Diggs are welcoming a baby or should not be. It is here. It is happening. Cardi is having the baby. And I do think that, you know, there is something to say about Cardi and her ability to work through all of this. Because not only is she physically dealing with being pregnant, having a baby, and, you know, balancing all of that at the same time in this big, huge superstar celebrity world, but we know.

Cardi has always been very, very aware, vulnerable, and I would even say sensitive to what the critique and the conversation is about her amongst fans and critics and online. So I know she sees all of this, right? And emotionally, I'm sure she's dealing with that too. She's dealing with having, even if that's not a thought in her mind, like, oh, my God, is it too early? Is it something we should be doing right now? because she did not directly say that it was in this interview.

So I can't definitely say that. But even if that is something that she's thinking about, should or should we have not, you know, been here right now, the outpouring of support, but then also the outpouring of opinion and negative opinion definitely takes a toll on you. I don't care what people say at all. When you are a person in the spotlight, you know,

if there are a ton of bricks being thrown your way, at least one, you're going to feel. Maybe 10 out of 100, you're going to feel. And when you're feeling those, when you're a person like Cardi B, who is very vocal, who has conversations with her fan, she gets right on Twitter spaces, honey. We'll tell you how she feels, what she like,

what she don't like. It's hard for me to imagine that she's not seeing it and that she doesn't have an opinion on that. But regardless of what people think, it is happening, and she is pushing through. She has been delivering rollout-wise. She has been consistent rollout-wise. people told her, not even told her, but people, you know, the conversation with whether it's media heads, whether it's fans, just whoever, in conversation about Cardi and her sophomore album, Am I the Drama, which comes out the 19th of September, so in a few days from now, the conversation has been, will the album even come out?

Will it ever be finished? Because it took her so long to deliver in between, you know, Invasion of Privacy, which was her first album, it's been years. since that project and she's here and she's delivering so no matter how we feel you got to give it up for baby girl for at the end of the day she's getting it done she's getting it done despite all of the things now she did talk about you know speaking of the conversation about you know getting things done y'all know cardy had said on a you know a instagram live that a tour was coming and when i saw that because i've been saying for months that i thought carty was pregnant there was a photo that she posted. You guys, you know, go Google this.

She was taking a picture for culture's birthday. And Cardi is in a red. It's like a jersey. It's almost like a soccer jersey because it kind of looks like a t-shirt. It's pretty oversized. And I'm like, Cardi looks like she's expecting. And then other things came out. Other photos, there was a video of her in the white outside of the courtroom when she

was just in court in L.A., the case that she won against the security guard. She looked pregnant there as well. like how the hell is she going to do a full tour now granted she was supposed to go on tour sometime back with bruno mars you guys remember they had the song together and that didn't happen she was pregnant with culture she did perform i remember she did colchella it was a whole you know she gave love the tlc it was that whole thing um and she worked throughout her pregnancies prior to this one but the tour didn't happen this is her first solo headlining tour so there's a big i mean carty b is a When you see her, when you go see her in person, whenever you're watching her, everything she does is a production.

That's why this rollout has been so flawless because she's, you know, put her reps in at bringing the productions to life. But also, it's what she does. So, you know, we felt it in a rollout. You see it when you see her in concert. So it's going to be a production nonetheless. And we know when I heard her say she's announcing a tour and in my mind, I'm like, I think she's pregnant. I'm like, how is she going to do this? So now that the pregnancy has been announced, she talks about what,

tour is going to look like because according to Cardi, and I'm saying according to Cardi, she would know, the baby will be here prior to that tour happening. Shout out to Cardi, because I promise y'all, I am not pregnant. I don't have any kids, but I say in the room all the time with, you know, Charlemagne, Justin, Envy, and you guys know they all have kids of all different ages. Y'all don't be tired because I'd be exhausted after doing the show, the podcast. I'm sitting up being in people business for hours upon hours and then coming back in and doing at all again, I'm exhausted after all of that. Y'all aren't ever exhausted.

So to do everything Cardi is doing, and I know people would be like, well, she got help. Cardi got money. She got help. But still, she's a present mom. She's a very present mother. And she did also say that, you know, this tour, when she was talking to Kelly Rowland, she talked about how her plan, because she just had her baby blossom with offset, she did talk about her plan to not take her babies on all.

all of the tour stops on all of the tour stops so that's also like even though she's not you know her babies are not on the tour stop i think mentally it's weighing on you as a mom when you got to be you know it's mom guilt when you got to be away from your babies and you know you work in and you got to do what you got to do but you're used to being able to take them to school every day you're used to being able to you know you doing dinner getting them dressed looking at the outfits it's going to be different for carty this time around not being able to take you know all the kids with her it's going to be very different for her. But I mean, I wish her the best of luck.

I will say it's going to be interesting navigating or watching her navigate how she deals with people to have a lot to say about the fact that she is expecting a baby with Stefan dig so early in their relationship after, you know, having her youngest baby with her estranged husband offset. And the fact that, you know, the divorce is not even finalized, which in my opinion, I'm not going to lie to y'all and, you know, get in the streets, getting the tweets, me. I'm Lauren LaRosa everywhere. L-O-R-E-N-L-O-R-O-S-A. In my opinion, I don't think that the divorce paper is not being finalized is a thing. If two people are really in the space where they have moved on,

for real, for real, and things are separate, businesses are separate, homes are separate, all of that. I think working out the paperwork and going through the court system to do those things takes the time. And as long as she's moving forward and doing them, which I'm sure she is at this point cool but people are like her divorce papers are not having the ink hasn't even dry and I'm like but she's moved on though she's been dating you know what I mean now I can I can understand that you know it's very early argument as a woman I think when you're dealing with a man especially when you're fresh out of another breakup your biggest thing is you know we understand the honeymoon phase too I think people hear Cardi talking about oh he said let me come heal you and they think

she's just gullible and as a woman who's been in a vulnerable space moving on from a situation that you thought was going to be a forever, I think, you know, it does feel good when you find someone who wants to step into what you think the men in your life should be doing and what that role is. And it can blind you a bit, you know, love does that to both men and women. But I think as we watch her navigate this space, you kind of got to reserve your opinion to just kind of see what happens. This is one of those things.

Like everybody has what they think is going to happen. I've heard positive and negative, but it's one of those things, kind of like a movie, which is crazy because Cardi dropping Am I, the Drama, baby, everything she's been doing every day in this rollout has been something, you guys just sit on your edgy a seat and wait to see what's going to happen. Cardi B going to keep you on your edgy a seat, okay? Because am I of the drama, baby, the pot is stirring, and it gets thicker, and there is a new person in the party.

So congratulations of Cardi. Let me know what y'all are thinking about Cardi B and her. baby announcement, yeah, we're going to move on. I'm Jorge Ramos. And I'm Paola Ramos.

What do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke, but that really was my reality nine years ago. I just normally do straight stand-up, but this is a bit different. On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear. Well, 22nd of July 2015, a 23-year-old man had killed his family. And then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? A new podcast called Wisecrack, where stand-up comedy and murder takes center stage.

Available now. Listen to Wisecrack on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This is a tape-recorded statement. The person being interviewed is Krista Gail Pike. This is in regards to the death of a Colleen slimmer. She started going off on me, and I hit her. I just hit her and hit her and hit her and hit her. On a cold January day in 1995, 1815, 18.

15-year-old Krista Pike killed 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer in the woods of Knoxville, Tennessee. Since her conviction, Krista has been sitting on death row. The state has asked for an execution date for Krista. We let people languish in prison for decades, raising questions about who we consider fundamentally unrestorable.

In the latest up next, Wendy Williams, Charlemains OG, if you watch our team dash interview, Wendy Williams was outside. Speaking of Cardi B, in the outside song and her being back outside, baby. Wendy Williams is outside as well.

So Wendy Williams attended Laquan Smith's spring, summer, ready wear runway show, which is, you know, the season of fashion week that we're in right now. I kind of broke down and explained to you guys, you know, how the seasons of fashion week work in a prior episode when I talked about attending, you know, some fashion week shows. Make sure you guys go take a listen to that. I did not attend the Laquan Smith show. Laquine Smith's team Didn't get back to me on the RSVP But you know We still here talking about it

But yeah So there were a ton of people there It was a big deal Of course to see Wendy Williams there And I think Wendy Williams is Wendy Williams So whenever you see her anywhere But of course in spaces where

You know she's putting herself back Into pop culture It's very nostalgic for some people It's very inspiring for some people To see her getting back on the horse and trying to get back to her life after everything that we've learned that she's currently going through.

But people just love Wendy, yo. Even the people that hate Wendy, love Wendy. It's insane. I've never seen anything like it. She's a cultural phenomena. But in attendance was Little Kim, and I did see that Little Kim and Wendy Williams had a moment

and, you know, let's take a listen to the audio. You can kind of hear their conversation a bit. Wendy is, you know, exchanging numbers with Kim. Let's take a listen. Hi. Hi, listen, get your phone number to get me. Okay. Yes, go ahead, Wendy.

I got to see. Hi. Oh, my goodness. I love you, Wendy. You also had Christian Combs and his sisters, the twins. The Combs twins in attendance. I saw Jordan Woods seated next to them. Shout out to Simone King and Rodale Madison, P.R.

I know she works with all of them, and baby, she always has her client's seat. They were there. the front row. I also saw, you know, Mariah the scientist was at the show, Ice Tea and Coco, Lotto and her sister Brooke were there as well. Buster Rines, Buster Rines, Buster Rines been outside because even when I was at the Romeo Hunt show the other day, Buster Rines was there, but Buster Rines would be moving around New York. He'd be everywhere all the time. And, you know, even, like, I think seeing Wendy in these elements now, like at this point, is a thing as well, because there's a lot of people who didn't really care for Wendy that I think we see now extending her some grace

like a Little Kim, right? Because that, y'all remember Little Kim and Wendy Williams, they had their times, you know, Little Kim got on Twitter. This was, what year was this? 2013. Little Kim got on Twitter and she went off on Wendy Williams. You know, she read her down or attempted to because you know, Wendy won't give a good read back. But this was after Wendy Williams made comments about Little Kim and, you know, her parents and all the things. Here's what Wendy Williams had to say. You know, I'm a straight shooter, so I'm going to say, first of all, same blue contacts, so at least that's consistent.

Brand new nose. The lip pooch looks good, the cheeks. She got a chin shake. It looks like a chin shave. And, of course, the obvious bleaching. Little Kim tweeted, and again, this was years ago. This was back of 2013 after Wendy made those comments. She, little Kim tweeted, she said, B, why you didn't show the side-by-side pick.

The pick is photoshopped and you know it. You are hating B. A bad angle will never make me look like that. Stop hating on me because you sucked Big's D-I-C-K and he didn't want nothing to do with your behind after that. It's time for the world to know the real. I'm not playing what you're behind anymore. Let's get it. And I kept that very PG for y'all.

Very PG. Very, very PG. because there was a series of tweets but you know it got kind of crazy and a lot of those tweets ended up being deleted after but Little Kim and Wendy

were not the best of friends so to see this now and you know in this video Little Kim is very like she's holding Wendy's hand there's just a change of any energy and I think we get to a point

where we all grow up and we get tired of certain things but I'm gonna tell you right now being on the other side of this and understanding having to report on people and give an opinion I would never be like

I've always said this, I admire Wendy. Y'all know she is one of the people I admire, but there is a limit on what I will do and say. Wendy was going to drag for Filth way differently than me. I am not here to drag for Fields. I will always defend myself as needed. But I kind of, you know, like to keep mine like where I get in and get out. Every now and then I might say something I don't even think it's shady or like, you know, whatever.

And people do get upset. Like I've had, you know, celebrities get upset at the way I reported things or something. bed or, and it's really nothing you can do. Now, for me, it's really nothing I can do because what I try to do is it's just, especially in a room with the breakfast club where I kind of can tee up things. My opinion isn't the focus. Every now and then you guys hear my opinion. The podcast is different.

I'm by myself. Y'all are getting my opinion. But a lot of people, you know, pay attention to the facts that I'm providing and the personalities in the room, a Charlemagne, an envy, a just, their opinions are there. Here, you get a mixture of the two. people get pissed off but for me one of the things that I always like to say to people when I was just having a conversation about this last night at a fashion show I was at I was at the trapstar London fashion show ending my fashion week and I ran into Mona don't call me

white girl who's another podcaster and comedian and um you know she was just telling me how proud of me she was saying to me you know people don't understand what I come from like people look at me and they see me so buttoned up in me you know don't well even when I say a word wrong or I might use slang because that's how I talk. People are like, oh my God, but you're supposed to be a journalist. And I'm like, I'm a girl who knows how to tell stories and I've been trained as a journalist to figure out what's next and tell that story and be the first person to tell you sometimes. But not my perfect, right? But I think what people don't understand is that, I mean, I do have bark. And sometimes I bark and I bite back, but it's always been about like, you know,

there's a certain level of when I say something, if I ever get messy or if I ever give an opinion or because I really don't like even veering into the lane of messy, if I give an opinion and people don't like it, it's nothing I wouldn't say to the person in their face. It's something that I would like I don't say anything that I'm not going to stand on. I always, you know, when I'm thinking about how I feel about things and I'm preparing for my segments here on the podcast and in the breakfast club or anywhere panels anything i'm not saying anything that i would not stand on because i'd be outside and i know in real life i'm gonna run into these people and i'm not back and down i mean i'm out here looking for drama ever like that is not bro i'm so far gone from that and

that is what me and don't call me white girl we're having a conversation about like coming from where i come from like you know there are certain things people lean into they love the mess but for me i try to you know be at a point where you know you get a little bit of it you you you're laugh, we keep, key, we move on, but it's not detrimental with somebody in their existence. And I think a lot of people with Wendy Williams have always felt like the things that she said and done may have been detrimental to

people's mental, their physical, their coin, whatever the case may be. But I ain't never going to say nothing. I'm not going to stand on. And I do believe that Wendy is that type of person as well to a certain extent. You know, there has been, you know, the conversations about, you know, the girl groups pulling up to the studio and Wendy ain't coming outside and all that.

But yeah, I just, I understand this a lot differently now. Like, understand a Wendy in, you know, not what she did or how she did it, but just the ramifications that come with certain things. So to see people choosing to give Wendy some grace, to move on, to forgive her, to, you know, take her number, be a person she can call and support her despite everything. Kudos to those people. Kudos to a person like a little Kim who's willing to do that after having a public spat with the Wendy Williams because, you know, it's tough hearing things and seeing things about yourself,

especially when there are things that are so sensitive. And people talk about Little Kim all the time and her looks and how they've changed. I see old photos of Little Kim all the time and I'd be like, oh, my God. Little Kim was so brown and beautiful. I am a person that will say I wish she hadn't got so much work done. But I'm not a person that's going to get along

and drag her for it either because, I mean, look, to each his own. But they've moved on. And we saw that moment. And I don't even know if people, because I didn't even see a lot of people reporting it. I don't even know if people realized how iconic it was to see that moment. Because that was a, yo, when we found out that Wendy Williams might suck Biggie's allegedly, oh, baby, that was breaking news.

That was a hot topic. How are you doing? At the end of the day, there's always a lot to talk about. And listen, whether it is Cardi being the baby, Wendy Williams, and, you know, some pain that she might be surrounding herself. and celebrity she's running into like a little Kim and other people while out and about for Fashion Week this is the place to do it

and I do know this is the place to get all of that news I mean and I do know there was a headline that came out yesterday with Wendy Williams about her being deposed in this A&E lawsuit and people were like

at first people were upset when they saw this headline because they're like leave Wendy alone and she's going through nothing she looked so good yesterday and her Laquine Smith draked in fur you know the people were like

well can she do it? a deposition she's looking good but a judge ruled yes she can it must be only three hours long and you know they have a actual limit of how many days it can be across and she has to be comfortable in the location they choose and you know there's some rules and regulations but they decided they're not going to hold off on what is required to get this lawsuit settled anymore like they said in the beginning so we'll see that happen and you know i'm going to reach out and try and get some updates they're exclusively on why the judge decided to move forward and what happens next. So I'll be bringing that right back here to you guys on the latest with Lauren La Rosa.

Ha, Law Riders, I appreciate y'all. I appreciate all of you guys. Get in the streets and the tweets. Let me know how you're feeling about the things we've covered today.
