Starting point is 00:03:30 It's one of my favorite shows to do. Just because y'all always keep it 100, y'all keep it real. They might not watch the news, but they're on Twitter. They're on Facebook. They're, you know, they're listening to The Breakfast Club. Get your ass up. Good morning, USA. Guess what day it is? Guess what day it is? Pump day. Ah. 420, by the way.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Yes, it is. It is 420 today. I hope you're somewhere waking and baking or popping an edible or something. Don't do it in drive, though. But if that's what you want to wake up to, do your thing. Yes. Yes. Well, maybe wait to after work, just in case. So you're not driving to work a little high.
Starting point is 00:04:23 You're not high at work. That's why I said don't drive and do it. But a lot of people do it just to be able to function, man. People do it for anxiety purposes. That's facts. Take that edge off. It's a lot more medicinal nowadays than it is recreational. Right.
Starting point is 00:04:39 And if it's not, that's our story and that's what we stick into. There you go. Well, let me shout out to everybody that supported the book yesterday. Oh, man, amazing. They call it Pub Day. You know, happy Pub Release Day. Yeah. And I was amazed.
Starting point is 00:04:53 I've never written a book, so I had no idea anything about how the book world works. So yesterday they told me that if you crack the top 100, that is great. Top 100 on Amazon. Yeah, they said that is great. And 100 on Amazon. They said that is great. And yesterday we made top 20. So they were super-duper surprised. So just to put it in perspective, when you talk about books, it's all books. So it's like Dr. Seuss.
Starting point is 00:05:15 It's 48 Laws of Power. It's the keto diet books, the cook books. So the fact that we broke top 20 in Amazon, I think we actually made to 18 yesterday and then as far as the audible we were like number two yeah that was amazing everybody was surprised I didn't know what I had why would you be surprised cuz I don't know anything about the book where I had no idea I have no idea I didn't do it to make a list I did it because we wanted to you know tell our story so if you didn't move some books I would be surprised you know you got you got great platforms.
Starting point is 00:05:46 You got The Breakfast Club. You got The KC Crew Podcast. If you didn't move books, I'd be surprised. That's not surprising to me. Congratulations. You never know and I know it feels good. It's your first book. Congratulations to you and Kia. Shout out to everybody that went out there and picked up the book and starting to write
Starting point is 00:06:01 reviews. I love the reviews. Continue, man. If you're out there, go to your local Barnes & Nobles. Go to Amazon. Pick up the book and starting to write reviews. I love the reviews. And continue, man. If you're out there, go to your local Barnes & Nobles, go to Amazon, pick up the book. It's very, very, very transparent. We're very, very transparent in the books. Oh, we know. We know. We know.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Okay. Some of those viral moments are actually helping sell the book. So, hey. That's right. It is what it is. If I showed you all my DMs and Gia's DMs, there's so many women who say, look, I was going through the same situation with my man, my boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:06:29 My man's penis was trash, too. Absolutely. And now I'm going to have that conversation with them because I want to be open. I want to have a better sex life. I know all those guys laughing and making jokes. A lot of y'all not making women orgasm either. You just don't know it.
Starting point is 00:06:44 Gia said, yeah, I know that squirt was fake, but I still moan because I'm a gremlin. What? What are you talking about? But I really appreciate you guys. And definitely, if you're out and about, pick up the book. Mother's Day is around the corner, Father's Day. So definitely get the book. And I appreciate you.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Pick it up, download it on Audible, listen to it. It all counts. Everything counts. Everything counts. Everything counts. All right. Well, let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Yes, let's talk about Kyrie Irving.
Starting point is 00:07:10 He was fined by the NBA for giving a middle finger to Celtics fans. We'll tell you how much he has to pay. All right. We'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:07:23 We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Now yesterday the Heat beat the Hawks 115-105. They lead the series 2-0. The Grizzlies beat the Timberwolves 124-96. That series is tied 1-1. And the Pelicans beat the Suns
Starting point is 00:07:38 125-114. And the series is tied for that 1-1. That was a shocker. That was an upset. I was like, wow. Now, Kyrie Irving has been fined and that's because he threw up the middle finger to Boston fans. Yes, he was
Starting point is 00:07:54 fined $50,000 by the NBA. They actually said the fine was for making obscene gestures on the playing court and directing profane language toward the spectator stands. So, I mean, they were going at him the whole entire game. Yeah, that's a difficult one because they'd be cursing at these players.
Starting point is 00:08:11 They'd be yelling at them, giving them middle fingers, and you can't give it back? That's tough. That's difficult. I knew he was going to get fined. I mean, when we was watching the game, I kept saying, oh, they're going to get him for that, they're going to get him for that. But I don't think you should be fined if you're responding to the energy you're receiving. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:08:28 If he had instigated it, I can see that. But if you're responding to the energy you're receiving, I don't know if you should be fined. But then it's difficult, too, right? Because the fans aren't the ones on television. So it's like when you see Kyrie throwing his middle finger, you see that, but you don't see what caused him to do that. Right. They play again tonight.
Starting point is 00:08:44 So I wonder if something like this, it probably will make the fans go even harder. Of course. It's really not fair. I was at the Knicks-Nets game and everybody was cursing at Kyrie. And I think Kyrie thought it was Spike Lee. So Kyrie said something to Spike Lee and then realized it wasn't. He came back over and apologized.
Starting point is 00:09:00 But it gotta be difficult. These players are yelling all types of things. These people are yelling all types of things. Throw throwing them gestures, middle fingers and all that. They should get escorted out. They do in some cases. In some cases they do. I don't know what warrants them to kick fans out, but a lot of times they do. I think yelling at profanities should be harassing somebody constantly.
Starting point is 00:09:22 They don't get kicked out for that because everybody be yelling profanities at them games. Now a viral video of Syracuse police officers detaining a child for allegedly shoplifting has gotten a lot of criticism. This little young boy over a bag of chips. He's just a kid and here is what happened.
Starting point is 00:09:40 What is y'all doing? He's like a baby to me. I don a guess what I'm doing. He looks like a baby to me. Why you, why you. Guess what I'm doing. I don't know what you're doing. I just see you snatching my pocket. So what, so what's going on then?
Starting point is 00:09:52 You're stealing stuff. If you break into your house, you steal something. Nah, man. What do you say, a bag of chips? So y'all treat me like a whole cold-blooded f***ing killer? Keep walking, dude. You don't even know what you're talking about. Keep walking?
Starting point is 00:10:01 I do, but I know what I just came up and see. I know the f*** I just came up and see. I know the **** I just came up and see. Okay, what did you see? I see y'all snatching him off the bike like you're a **** grown-ass man. **** him. And he said it wasn't him. If he stole some chips, I'll pay for him. There you go.
Starting point is 00:10:14 I'll pay for him. You don't even know who he is. And that's what we need to do. I'm glad he taped that. But a bag of chips, I'll pay for the damn chips. Yeah, I mean, that's disgusting. I'll pay for two pairs. He's so young.
Starting point is 00:10:24 He's a little boy. But according to the police department, they said that he was not placed in handcuffs. He was placed in the rear of a patrol unit where he was directly brought home. Officers met with the child's father and no charges were filed. You should not treat a child like that. Not at all. I respect that brother for standing up for that young man, though. You know?
Starting point is 00:10:41 We talk about when we see something, say something. That don't always apply just to citizen to citizen. That apply to, the police officer, too, because we pay their damn taxes. And after what I paid in taxes yesterday, I have a voice. Yeah, absolutely. And stealing isn't right. But when it gets to that point, you're a kid. We all stole things from stores before when we were younger. Well, a lot of us did.
Starting point is 00:10:59 You just have a conversation with a child and say, look, let me get those. So we saw what you did. You can't do. You know what I'm saying? You have a conversation. a child and say, look, let me get those chips. We saw what you did. You can't do that. You know what I'm saying? You have a conversation. That's scary enough. I was at 7-Eleven one time and this lady stole something. The police came, right? And she stole something like it was a water and a chip. She was hungry. And the cops
Starting point is 00:11:16 came in and they were going to arrest her. And one of the cops that I respected, and this was right on Route 17, and I was there because I was going to pay for it. He was like, you know what? I'll pay for it. I'm not arresting this lady. She's hungry. I'm going to pay for her chips and her water and we're not arresting her. And I respected that so much because I was going to do it. But the fact that he did it, he's
Starting point is 00:11:31 a little kid. And you got to learn how to be a better thief. Okay. When I was young, I never wanted to hide anything when I stole it. I would walk into a convenience store, grab what I want and just walk right out. Like don't even try to hide it. The cashier is shocked.
Starting point is 00:11:47 They're not going to stop you. That doesn't work. How about don't steal at all? Yeah, don't steal at all. I'm just telling you my thought process when I was a young lad. All right. Well, the Syracuse Police Department says they are aware of the video being shared and that they are going to review the body cameras.
Starting point is 00:12:03 A.K.A. nothing's going to happen. No. No. A.K.A. nothing's going to happen. Nah. No. A.K.A. nothing's going to happen. That is the standard press release that they put out
Starting point is 00:12:09 for all situations like this. All right. Well, that is front page news. Let me ask you a question, right? Is when you walk around the grocery store and you eat grapes, is that stealing
Starting point is 00:12:18 or is that just protocol? Yes, it's definitely stealing because when you go to weigh the grapes, those grapes are gone. Plus, how do you wash it if you're just eating grapes? Don't act like you never ate a grape. I've never because I would go to weigh the grapes those grapes are gone. Plus how do you wash it if you're just eating grapes? Don't act like you never ate a grape. I've never
Starting point is 00:12:27 because I would have to wash them. People are touching things. They still have chemicals on them. You never ate a grape walking around the store? I would never eat a piece of fruit without washing it. Well congratulations Angelique for being so much better than us. We've all done that. Sorry I'm a germaphobe. I've never done that. I've never done that. I've never asked for
Starting point is 00:12:43 a piece of you know when they eat the deli. I be like, can I have a piece of ham, please? I took two pieces of ham, bologna. No. I might eat like some candy, you know, while I'm waiting to check out and then scan it. But I would never eat a grape that wasn't washed. Sorry. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary?
Starting point is 00:13:04 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 Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
Starting point is 00:13:21 I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe 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 warheads. Oh my God.

Starting point is 00:16:30 What's up, fella? Hello, good morning. So, here it is. I got to get this off so I don't fall back to depression. I made a lot of financial mistakes in trying to pursue something that I thought was my purpose. And I wrote a book, self-published it. I wasn't through with the book. You guys probably have it. I took it off the market because the book just wasn't proper. The grammar wasn't proper, and I got it revised.
Starting point is 00:16:58 Now I'm at a crossroads where I'm dealing with issues with family and lost a lot of money. Now I've got, go after this job, you know, so I can continue to support my family. But I've made a lot of mistakes these past two years, and I thought I was, you know, on the right track. And, you know, I just— You mean on the book? You put a lot of money into the book? I put a lot of money into the book. I put a lot of money into investing into myself and a lot of money into the book i put a lot of money into investing into myself and you know doing what i thought was right and well i think
Starting point is 00:17:30 i think what you're feeling is normal brother like and i like the fact that you're not ignoring your money problems you know that you have them so now you just got to figure out a way to bounce back so the depression you might be feeling or the the anxiety that's that's normal when it comes to financial worries like there is definitely it comes to financial worries. Like there is definitely a link between financial worries and mental health issues. So you just got to bounce back. That's all. And I will say this.
Starting point is 00:17:52 If you believe your book is great, I mean, everything takes time. Nothing is overnight. You know what I mean? It took us years and years and years to do this Breakfast Club thing. It took me years and years and years to be a DJ. It took you years and years and years to purchase her first business and purchase her first home. And they didn't connect right away. It took time.
Starting point is 00:18:08 And we grinded it out. You know what I mean? What's the name of your book? A Ball Boy's Journey. Oh, A Ball Boy's Journey. We do have that. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:16 It's not. I wasn't happy with it. There's a lot of strong content about my failures, my mistakes, tragedies. And I learned a lot about myself and overcoming things. And now I'm kind of back back where I first started. And yeah, the book's getting revised and I'm going to put out
Starting point is 00:18:32 two books with the Nets and the Knicks. There you go. You sound like you're bouncing back. Do you have a place to stay? I'm sorry, say that again. Do you have a place to stay?
Starting point is 00:18:44 Yeah, I've been married. Me and my wife are going to be celebrating 16 years. Amazing. So you eat every day? Yeah, I'm thankful, but I'm very upset at myself. Yeah, don't be upset with yourself. No, you have no reason to be. It's a gamble.
Starting point is 00:18:58 That's what life is about, betting on yourself. That's all you gambled. That's what gambling is. You just took a bet on yourself. That's all. And the most important thing, I'm sure you're helping somebody out there. I'm sure even if 10 people bought your book, I'm sure you're helping 10 of those people. So don't even look at it like that, brother.
Starting point is 00:19:12 I appreciate y'all. Good talking to y'all. Finally, hopefully, God willing, I'll be seeing y'all hopefully this summer or next year. That vision is still there that me in the studio. God willing, I'll be in there. All right. God willing, I'll be in there. All right, God willing. Okay, if you sold one book as a self-publisher,
Starting point is 00:19:29 that's a success to me. Absolutely. Hello, who's this? This is Fresh from Florida. Fresh from Florida. What up? Get it off your chest. Yeah, I want to touch back on the topic from yesterday.
Starting point is 00:19:39 I'm going to talk about what Charlamagne said about the faking orgasm. Men fake orgasms just like women do. Yes, they do. For real? Congratulations. Every woman thinks they always have perfect stuff, but all of it ain't what they think it is.
Starting point is 00:19:56 And that's the conversation that we need to have. Now, somebody needs to open up that conversation. How do you tell a woman that her poom-poom may be garbage? You can't. I mean, because she's going to get enough feelings about it. Yeah, I mean, but I think if you're in a relationship with somebody that you really love and I think you want a healthy sex life, I think those are the conversations you need to have. I thank God me and my wife had that conversation.
Starting point is 00:20:17 But see, I don't know if you can have a healthy sex life when you tell a woman that her poom-poom trash. Because it's like, what can they do about that? You wouldn't say it's trash, though. I mean, it's not how you... You can't just say, hey, my, your poom-poom trash is just's like what can they do about that? You wouldn't say it's trash though. I mean, it's not how you, you can't just say, hey man, your poom poom trash is just the way you approach the conversation.
Starting point is 00:20:29 But look at it like this. If a woman doesn't like what a man's doing, she can guide him and tell him this. But if you, if her trash, what can you tell her?
Starting point is 00:20:38 Yeah, because that's the equivalent of telling a man his pee pee too little. Well, what would make it, what would make it, sir,
Starting point is 00:20:43 what would make it trash? Oh, it's a lot of reasons. Dry you can fix. And sometimes a woman's dry because a guy's not doing enough foreplay. You definitely can fix that. Too loose. They have surgery that can fix that too.
Starting point is 00:21:00 I can't pay for no damn surgery. Exactly. I can't pay for no surgery. A lot of women do it because after they have a baby, they feel like it's too loose. So they have surgery to reconstruct. I don't know what it's called. Well, yeah, Gigi had vaginal rejuvenation.
Starting point is 00:21:14 She was talking about it on lip service, tighten things up. Women don't know how to throw that thing back sometime. Well, you could teach her that. That's a rhythm thing. That's not really your action. Okay. Well, anyway, you could have those conversations. But 800-'s a rhythm thing. That's not really your action. Okay. Well, anyway, you could have those conversations. But 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Get it off your chest. Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is DJ.
Starting point is 00:21:40 What's up, bro? Get it off your chest. Not much. Everybody there? Everybody there? Yeah, everybody here. What's happening? Man, I broke up with my girlfriend Get it off your chest. Not much. Everybody there? Yeah, everybody here. Man, I broke up with my girlfriend yesterday, man.

Starting point is 00:22:05 Listen, man, you can't break up with your woman just because she was making you orgasm too much. You cannot break up with your woman because she was making you orgasm too much. Envy didn't make you orgasm at all for 10 years, and she stuck by his side. You have no excuse. Man, I prayed for a girl like this in college, but now that I got it, man. It's too much. It ain't all that, man. I went to the sex shop and got the biggest, strongest vibrator ever, and she broke it.

Starting point is 00:24:27 for about two years or so. And, you know, contracted, and they just let me go with no notice, no kind of thing like that. And they didn't let me get all the work that I built for them for those two years. So when I get cut and get into the job market, you know what I'm saying,
Starting point is 00:24:41 I ain't got nothing to show for the work that I did for the past few years, making me a less strong candidate, you know, for all these jobs that I'm applying for, you know what I'm saying? I ain't got nothing to show for the work that I did for the past few years, making me a less strong candidate, you know, for all these jobs that I'm applying for, you know? So this puts me in a weird position, you know what I'm saying? So that's basically what I had to get off my chest. But in that same vein, you know, I kind of went to shoot my shot because I noticed y'all put up an audio editor,
Starting point is 00:25:00 an imaging producer job. So, you know, I applied for that and figured I'd go ahead and just put a little notice in for that. Okay. Mosiah Culver. All right, Mosiah. Good luck.

Listen to Civic Cipher every Saturday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It was just all me. Sometimes when you make a lot of mistakes like that, you know, you can't really come back. Can we sit with that for a minute man that realization right there is a realization i've seen so many so many men have
Starting point is 00:30:50 when they get older like men get older and realize they had the right woman the whole time and accountability yeah and they ruined it by spreading their slong in these streets oh man and did you hear what shaq said that was so important he said said, I was not protecting her or our vows. And we've been having that conversation on this radio. I told y'all, protecting women isn't just a physical thing. It's an emotional and mental thing. And if you're out here cheating on your woman, you are not protecting her. Black men don't cheat. Yeah, but I love the fact that he's open about it and opening up the mistakes that he's made.
Starting point is 00:31:20 And I think we need to get to a place that we all can be open about the things that we do. Because hopefully it can help somebody else. I respect that so much because it's so hard for people to hold themselves accountable nowadays everyone wants to come off as so perfect like they've never made a mistake like everything that happens to them is somebody else's fault yeah like I respect that what he said so much all right now former LA Lakers executive Jerry West is demanding a retraction and an apology he says there's a baseless and malicious assault on his character and the HBO series Winning Time. He sent a letter from his legal team to the network
Starting point is 00:31:53 and to the producer Adam McKay, and that letter was obtained by ESPN. His lawyers are alleging that the Winning Time series falsely and cruelly portrays Mr. West as an out-of-control, intoxicated rageaholic that bears no resemblance to the real man they asked for a retraction no later than two weeks from the receipt of the letter and they're also saying you know this series is based on author Jeff Perlman's book Showtime Magic Kareem Riley and the Los Angeles Lakers dynasty of the 1980s and they're saying the series creators acted with legal malice because many of
Starting point is 00:32:25 the scenes in the series. So in this rage did not appear in the book and did not happen. The letter also has statements from former players like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Michael Cooper and Lakers employees like Claire Rothman, Bob Steiner, who worked with West during that time period. They said they never saw him commit any of the rage filled acts or drink alcoholic, drinking alcohol in the office as depicted
Starting point is 00:32:47 in the series. They said instead of exploring his issues with compassion as a way to better understand the man, they turned him into a wily coyote character to be laughed at. I gotta watch this before they pull us down. Yeah, they're not gonna pull it down. I don't know what's real and what's not real, but I am so entertained. Winning Time is fantastic.
Starting point is 00:33:04 Drop one of Clues Bom bombs for Winning Time. Okay, salute to Adam McVay and Rodney Barnes. That's one of my favorite shows on TV. Highly entertaining. Yeah, I gotta check it out. Alright, now Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are reuniting. They're doing a movie about a Nike executive, Sonny Vaccaro, who landed the
Starting point is 00:33:19 Michael Jordan deal for Nike. The project is going to tell the real life story of the quest to secure that partnership. And he'll never appear in the 1980 set film, but it will follow as he connects with Jordan's mother, former coaches, friends, advisors before landing one of the biggest endorsement deals in sports history. Both Ben Affleck and Matt Damon will co-write and co-produce the untitled film for Amazon Studios. Matt Damon will star as Sonny Vaccaro and Ben Affleck will direct the picture as well as play Nike co-founder Phil Knight. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:33:51 All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Room of Reports. All right, we got front page news next. What are we talking about? Yes, and we are going to be discussing COVID. Okay, remember that? Yep. Well, we'll talk about a booster
Starting point is 00:34:02 that they're saying has even better protection for you. All right, we'll get to that next. This're saying has even better protection for you. All right. We'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. I teamed up with Zyrtec for this allergy relief message.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Springtime brings vibrancy to the air and pollen. So I take Zyrtec when allergy symptoms start. Save the tissues and live vibrantly with Zyrtec. Starts working at hour one and stays strong day after day. Wake up. Wake the f*** up. This is Marlon Wayans, and I'm rocking with DJ Envy, Angela Yee, and Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 00:34:37 This is The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Yep, it's the one more dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne Tha God, Angela Yee, DJ Envy. I had to step out for a quick second, but it's time for front page news. What we got, Yee? Well, let's talk about Moderna.
Starting point is 00:34:51 They say that the redesigned COVID booster provides better protection. And they said that vaccine generated a strong immune response against multiple variants of concern, including Omicron. Here is what Dr. Richard Besser has to say on the new variant. Is it looking to be less virulent, less severe, but more contagious as we saw with Omicron before it? Well, it's definitely looking to be more contagious. It doesn't look like it's any more severe than Omicron. And the vaccines appear to be just as effective against this BA2 as they were and are against the Omicron strains. So if you haven't gotten vaccinated, it's not too late to do so. You will get some great protection.
Starting point is 00:35:38 All right, Dr. Besser, thank you, as always. Appreciate it. And he also was talking about when you should be getting your booster shot. I got mine already, but. But if you look across the ocean at Europe and see what's happened there with the BA2 variant, they saw a major peak and we're starting to see some signals in the United States. The data that shows that the BA2 is the dominant variant, but also some states that are starting to see not just the slowing of the decline, but a slight increase in cases. So I would encourage people to pay attention to what's
Starting point is 00:36:10 going on in your own community. If you start to see cases go up and you're in one of those risk groups, that's a time to think about getting a booster, in particular people who are over 65 and those who have medical conditions that put them at risk. At what point are they just going to announce that people got to get an annual COVID vaccination the same way you got to get the flu? I'm telling you, that's what's scaring people, the fact that they keep saying boosters and everything else and fourth shot and fifth shot. Just say that every year you're probably going to have to get an annual COVID shot
Starting point is 00:36:38 just like we do with the flu. Yeah, I mean, I guess things are changing nonstop and there's different variants that have been popping up. The number's going up, the numbers going down. So the information that they give us keeps on changing, too. Yeah, the flu mutates every year. Every year there's different variants of the flu. So it's the same exact thing.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Yeah, so they're going to keep on, you know, I definitely wouldn't got my booster shot because I'm around too many people for me to not do whatever I can to protect myself. All right. Now let's talk about weddings. The average American wedding, man, that is super expensive, but two California newlyweds managed to actually get married for $500. And that includes the dress, the venue, and the reception. So here is Kiera and Joel talking about the budget for their wedding. Our goal was to just be as minimal as possible and to spend the least amount of money as possible. A lot of people gifted us things like my godmom, she gifted us flowers. My sister gifted us a runner.
Starting point is 00:37:36 My god sister and my auntie gift us with a cake. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a dress because I had the mindset, I'm going gonna wear this one time for a few hours the people we had there they understood the assignment they understood the things that we were trying to do and they really supported us all right so yeah I mean listen I don't know if it makes sense for people to spend a whole lot of money on a wedding but some people dream about that their whole lives and they budget for that and they want to do it but uh she did hers with 500 and i think they actually had people pay for their own plates as well would you be offended if somebody invited
Starting point is 00:38:14 you to a wedding but told you you had to pay for your own food would i be offended um i don't know if offended would be the right word but i mean mean, in my mind, I would be thinking, well, maybe this person financially doesn't have it to provide free food, I guess. I don't know. Because, you know, when people get married, they do expect you to pay, I guess, whatever gift you give should be equal
Starting point is 00:38:40 to what they have to spend for your plate. So if you go to a wedding, how much do you give? How much do I give at weddings? Yeah plate. So if you go to a wedding, how much do you give? How much do I give at weddings? Yeah, like if you're invited to a wedding, say you and your wife go, what's the amount of money that you give the couple? I be going to the registry. I go to the wedding registry and buy stuff off the registry.
Starting point is 00:38:59 I don't think I've ever given cash for a wedding. Yeah, I mean, listen, while I was just at a wedding, they actually requested money. Like they said, the couple does prefer, you know, checks or whatever, but they did have a registry. But that registry was money to go towards like a honeymoon or to go towards a home renovation, things like that. So if you had to give money, what's the amount that you give for you and your wife? Depends on who the person is, honestly. You know what I mean? Like it depends on our relationship to said person.
Starting point is 00:39:33 And, you know, damn, financially, I hate to say it like this, but a lot of people who, wedding I may attend now, the last couple of weddings I attended, they were pretty well off. I don't think they needed no financial. I don't think Bobby Bones or Andrew Schultz
Starting point is 00:39:49 needed any financial contributions from me. Those are the last two weddings I've been to. Oh, so you just got gifts off the registry. But if they had said they wanted cash, what would you give them? I mean, I think $300, $500 is appropriate. I don't know. All right.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Well, listen, since we're talking about this viral couple that was on Good Morning America, we want to ask you guys, as people are going to weddings, you know, some people held off their weddings because of the pandemic. So everybody's getting married now that was waiting. What do you give at a wedding? Right. This couple went viral for their $500 wedding. If you're a guest going to a wedding, are you offended if they make you pay for your
Starting point is 00:40:24 plate? And how much do you give a couple that's getting married? What is the appropriate amount as we're sitting here thinking about it? Like, all right, I got invited to a wedding. How much money am I supposed to give? Call us up 800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time Call 800-585-1051 To join in to the discussion With The Breakfast Club Let's talk about it Morning everybody
Starting point is 00:40:54 It's DJ Envy Angela Yee Charlamagne Tha God We are The Breakfast Club Good morning Now if you're just joining us What are we talking about Yeezy? We're talking about this couple
Starting point is 00:41:03 They were on Good Morning America And they were talking about This wedding that they were on Good Morning America and they were talking about this wedding that they had that cost $500. Here they are. Our goal was to just be as minimal as possible and to spend the least amount of money as possible. A lot of people gifted us things like my godmom, she gifted us flowers. My sister gifted us the runner.
Starting point is 00:41:21 My god sister and my auntie gifted us with a cake. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a dress because I had the mindset, my god sister and my auntie gift us with a cake. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a dress because I had the mindset I'm gonna wear this one time for a few hours. The people we had there they understood the assignment. They understood the things that we were trying to do and they really supported us. So what is the question Yeezy? So the question is when you go to a wedding right how much do you pay if you have to give the couple money? A lot of people request cash as a gift. So for yourself, a lot of people expect, you know, when you get they get married, that when you give them money, it's going to at least cover your plate.
Starting point is 00:41:55 So what is the appropriate amount of money to give at a wedding? Minimum the cost of the plate of food. But how do you know what that is? That's what I've always been told. It usually depends on, you know, the place that you're getting married in and how much you assume the plate is going to cost. So, like if it's a wedding, I would say
Starting point is 00:42:12 what, $100 a plate? Maybe sometimes $150 a plate, depending on the size of the wedding and where it is. That's what I was always told. And I don't blame them because getting married is very expensive. I remember when I got married, if it wasn't for Gia's mom and my parents to help us out, I don't know where we would get the money from back then.
Starting point is 00:42:28 But yeah, we were grateful that people were paid for their plates. Well, these guests, this couple actually made their wedding guests pay for their own food and drink too. I mean, yeah, if you got it, help them out. I don't see nothing wrong with it. Yeah, it just depends, right? Like
Starting point is 00:42:43 I was saying earlier, the last two weddings I went to were my man Bobby Bones and Andrew Schultz. They don't need my money, okay? Also depends when you catch me. Right now, since it's tax time, I'll give you like $200, $250. Not tax time, probably $500. But I would rather just buy something off the registry. See, we didn't do registries back then. We actually really needed the money to something off the registry. See, I didn't have, we didn't do registries back then. We just, we actually really needed the money to pay off the place.
Starting point is 00:43:09 So I didn't want a wedding. And when we got married, we didn't have a house to go to. So we really just needed like to pay off that wedding place. They didn't pay off the, you know, the food and the flowers and all that other stuff. So I needed the cash. I also want to say too, yeah, because the bare minimum at a wedding should be free food, free drinks. I think so anyway.
Starting point is 00:43:30 You know what I mean? So whatever you can do as a, I guess, attendee of the wedding to contribute to that, if the party needs it, sure. And what happened to daddy's paying for weddings? No. We got four kids. We got four daughters, bro. Let's stop that right now.
Starting point is 00:43:45 I've never seen that. I said I've never seen that. Like, I got married multiple times. But my father-in-law did contribute to me and my wife's wedding. But I don't be hearing about daddy's paying for weddings like that no more. Yeah, that's old. That's in the 1900s. I think now.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Let's bring that back. Yeah, yeah. We're not bringing that back. But I think it's. Y'all be paying for some weddings. Yeah, I got four weddings to pay for. But I think it should be that, you know, everybody contributes to the wedding.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Like, you know, both sides, depending on what it is, I think. Okay. Well, let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Elroy like to just... Elroy like to just... What up, Elroy?
Starting point is 00:44:21 I met Elroy last week in D.C. He came to the book sign, and I met Elroy. What's up with you, brother? I also want you to know Elroy? I met Elroy last week in D.C. He came to the book sign, and I met Elroy. What's up with you, brother? I also want you to know, Elroy, the Jetsons only work for— The book sign was real good, man. And the book good. I got the audio, too, so that's been real good.
Starting point is 00:44:33 I appreciate you and the wife for supporting, brother. You already know, but no, I think $250 is a reasonable amount for the gift. That's a good number, right? I don't make it to a registry like Charlemagne. I normally get something off the registry, but $250 is good. All right, is that $250 per person? Say you bring a date. Most times it's me and my wife, so I make $250 as a whole, like a family.
Starting point is 00:44:54 That's right. $125 a person. And I also want to tell you, Elroy, Elroy, like the Jetsons, only works with people of a certain age. You say that to these kids, they be looking at you like, who the hell is the Jetsons? A lot of Jetsons are still on TV. I'm 32, so my whole circle around my age are older. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:45:10 That is what it is. Thank you, bro. You already know. Have a great day on purpose. Have a great day on purpose. I like that. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Sandra from Michigan.
Starting point is 00:45:20 Hey, good morning. We're talking weddings and how much is a good amount to pay for, I guess, a plate or a gift? Yeah, what's appropriate? I'd say, well, with my daughter, I think average was probably about $30 a plate during COVID. The wedding was small. $30? Well, the dinner plate, yeah, per person.
Starting point is 00:45:42 I think $30 seems a little, it don't seem like enough to cover that plate. Well, $30, yeah, because everybody ordered what they wanted to off the menu. So, average, it was about $30. Okay. And then, for the reception, we paid for everything. So... Where you calling from, Queen? Pardon me?
Starting point is 00:46:01 Where you calling from? Michigan. Michigan. Okay, so who catered the wedding? Like, you'll shut up babe no we went to pennsylvania we drove to pennsylvania it was only 24 people allowed because it was during covid okay and then everybody paid for it um or drove we all drove or and some people flew in it was was only 24 people, family mainly. And then for the reception, we paid for everything. The reception
Starting point is 00:46:30 was in September. And how much did people give as a gift if they give cash as a present? Well, a couple people gave, I mean, she did register, but she did ask for monetary donations for the reception. And people gave different amounts.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Some people gave like $200. And some people gave $100. But it did go towards her honeymoon. Okay. All right. Thank you. I think $30 is a little too low. Well, she was saying that's how much the food costs per plate for the first event.
Starting point is 00:47:05 What the hell were they eating, sandwiches? Yeah, because $30 is, in any wedding with any chef, whether it's fish or steak or it's vegan, it costs more than $30 a plate. $30? And plus a drink, I don't think that's a lot. I don't know. I could be wrong. You better leave Publix alone, man. No wrong with Publix.
Starting point is 00:47:24 I spent over $30 yesterday at Auntie Annie's, man. I could be wrong. You better leave Publix alone, man. No wrong with Publix. I spent over $30 yesterday at Auntie Annie's, man. I'm not going to lie. I was walking through the airport, and my daughter said she wanted something from Auntie Annie's. And boy, it got to me. The pretzel spot, $30? Man, I had me some cinnamon. I got four kids. I had me some cinnamon and sugar bites and two pretzel dogs.
Starting point is 00:47:41 Lord have mercy. I'm saying all that to say that's what it sounds like they was eating at that wedding in Pennsylvania for $30 a plate. Bro, you had a hot dog yesterday? A pretzel hot dog? I did have a pretzel dog. I had two of them, man. I'm not gonna lie. And a thing of Cinnabites. You're a fat ass. Alright.
Starting point is 00:47:57 I am. I'm trans fat ass. What's the question, Yee? The question is, what is an appropriate amount to give to a couple who is getting married as a gift for the wedding? If they're requesting monetary gifts, what do you give them? And this is all based off of this couple that spends $500 on their wedding. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club.

Enter the Breakfast Club topic.
Starting point is 00:51:29 Come on! 800-585-1051. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. If you just joined us, we're talking what's the appropriate amount to give at a wedding, right?
Starting point is 00:51:45 Now, where's this coming from, Yeezy? This is coming from a couple from L.A. They spent $500 on their wedding. They went viral for this. They were on Good Morning America discussing it. And so now I'm wondering, when you go to a wedding, what is an appropriate amount to give as a gift? Yeah, I always say the plate. And the plates, I would say, usually range from $75 a plate to $150 a plate.
Starting point is 00:52:05 I would say somewhere in there. So we usually give somewhere around that just to help the couple pay for some of the reception hall and some of the things that they have to pay for because weddings are expensive. You know, people just think reception hall, but you got to think dress. You got to think flowers. You got to think tuxedos. And then if you have bridesmaids or groomsmen, sometimes you got to help with their stuff, depending on what it is.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Is that really the attendees' responsibility, all of that? Sometimes, yeah. If you have bridesmaids or groomsmen, sometimes you got to help with their stuff, depending on what it is. Now, is that really the attendees' responsibility, all of that? Sometimes, yeah. I don't know about all that, bro. If you got to do all that, I don't know if you ready to get married right now. Well, they spent only $500 on their wedding, including the dress, the reception, everything. How they did that? A lot of stuff got donated, and then they made guests pay for their own plates.
Starting point is 00:52:47 Yeah, listen, food and drinks, I can understand. But if you're telling me that you want me to give you a certain amount because I got to cover your wedding dress and the venue and all of that, y'all ain't ready to get married, bro. No, I'm not saying that. What's the justice of the peace or something? I'm just saying these are my expenses, so if you can help out with your own food, that's good. Oh, yeah, food and drinks.
Starting point is 00:53:01 At the bare minimum, the guests of a wedding should cover their own food and drinks, At the bare minimum The guests of a wedding Should cover Their own food and drinks Even though I think That should be covered as well But if you're not able To do that That's what the money goes to
Starting point is 00:53:11 But to say It's going to my actual wedding No And if that's the case If you don't want to play it Definitely don't take My flowers on the table I know
Starting point is 00:53:19 When you leave a wedding You like to take The little table things With the flowers Then don't take it Don't blow on me Well who should take it I take it I pay for it I'll take it You'll things with the flowers, then don't take it. Don't blow on me. Well, who should take it? I'll take it. I'll pay for it.
Starting point is 00:53:26 You'll take all the flowers and put them where? Yes. Alright. Hello, who's this? Oh, this is Chris. Chris, what up? Chris, talk to us. As far as the weddings, I think, like Charlamagne said, it depends on the level of friendship, I think. But the minimum, I think a minimum should be like $100,
Starting point is 00:53:41 $150. Some place ain't cheap, man. Okay. True. Okay. All right. Thank you, brother. And they charge you more when they know it's for a wedding. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:53:51 Hello, who's this? Yo, this is D'Angelo. D'Angelo, what's up? I love brown sugar. What's going on? I appreciate it. I ain't quite D'Angelo, but it is what it is. All right, so we're talking.
Starting point is 00:54:05 What's a good, what's an appropriate number to give to somebody when they get married? What I try to do is, I try to split the baby. I would say like $150, you know what I'm saying, cash, and then get them like a gift off the registry.
Starting point is 00:54:14 If not off the registry, like get something that they can participate in together for the next coming years, like a his and hers journal or something like that. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:54:22 I'm with you. I like the registry makes it so easy, man. Not only does the registry make it easy, if you want a monetary donation, just tell me what to donate. Exactly. Give me a number because I can't just come up with a number off the top of my head. I mess around and give you $2 and you keep me moving.
Starting point is 00:54:42 $2? Come on now. No, appreciate that $2. You better appreciate that $2. you keep moving. $2? Come on now. No, appreciate that $2. You better appreciate that $2. That's disrespectful. It's hard for everybody out here right now. That's right. People giving what they can. If you're giving $2, you shouldn't go to the
Starting point is 00:54:56 wedding. If you need $2, you probably don't need to have a wedding. Alright, what's the moral of the story if there is a moral? I don't know. I just say pay for your plate. You try to figure out what the plate costs and you try to make that proper arrangement. Remember, when people are getting married
Starting point is 00:55:11 that's the beginning of their union and a lot of times they just don't have it. So any bit of support will always help. Yeah, and you're there to celebrate the couple. So no matter what decisions they make, if you're friends with somebody who's getting married and you want to go and show your support, then just do that and let's not complain about whatever if you got to pay for your own plate Just go and show love and all that stuff about the daddy got to pay for it your daughter's wedding
Starting point is 00:55:33 That's out the window. We're not doing that anymore only because you got four daughters That was only in the 1900s and in the 2000s we not doing that if you had six sons you want it Maybe but I got four daughters now we stopping that right now Has anybody ever as anybody out there had a GoFundMe-funded wedding? I'd like to know. I never thought about that. That would work. That would be good.
Starting point is 00:55:51 I just wonder, has anybody ever done a GoFundMe for a wedding? You do GoFundMe for everything else. All right, well, we got rumors on the way. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:56:08 Let me give a shout-out to all the DMV workers. Yesterday, I had to go to DMV in Newark, and they helped me out and looked me out. I had some things I had to take care of. So shout-out to all the DMV workers, man. You don't realize how difficult it is for them, everybody having to wait in line and being pissed off at them. So I just want to say salute to all of those DMV workers out there. Salute to all the DMV workers. Salute to Ms. Barber. Salute to Ms. Barber
Starting point is 00:56:30 out there in Montclair, New Jersey. Salute to all the DMV workers. And I want to salute DJ Tio, man. Drop on the clues box for DJ Tio. That's the homie. That's the homie from South Carolina. She hit me up and she said, nah, big bruh. $30, $50 per person is about right. At least in North Carolina and South Carolina. That's the normal wedding dinner of like chicken, rice, sides bruh, $30, $50 per person is about right, at least in North Carolina and South Carolina.
Starting point is 00:56:45 That's the normal wedding dinner of like chicken, rice, sides, bread, and drinks. Only a select few get salmon or something like that. And she does a lot of weddings. She's done quite a few, like three in the last 10 days. She said the menu is pretty much the same. And she said $30 a plate, that's probably like 2015 prices okay she's a right now it's probably about 50 ish and she said the person saying 125 per person that's the DJ Envy wedding well okay
Starting point is 00:57:13 Tio said that's what he'll say well I mean you could always take me to was it called a Thunderbird the Thunderbird in South Carolina they had some that's in Florence Florence that they had some great food over there at the Thunderbird and she said 500500 a plate. That's just ridiculous. That's celebrity wedding prices. Yeah, no, nobody pays $500. She actually said something else, but I'm not going to repeat that.
Starting point is 00:57:32 Oh, you're not going to repeat that? She actually said who else's wedding that could be, but I won't repeat that. All right. It's up to you, T.O. And shout to Steve Harvey. I'm going to be on the Steve Harvey morning show tomorrow talking about my new book, me and my wife's new book, Real Life, Real Love. So shout out to us.
Starting point is 00:57:47 Spoke to him this morning. He said he can't wait to come by the program and cuss with us a little bit. That's my guy. I had dinner and drinks with Steve a couple weeks ago. He said that. He said he want to come sit down. Sit down. He want to come sit down with us.
Starting point is 00:57:57 Yeah. Respect with so much that he's done and so much that he's accomplished and what he continues to do. It's always amazing and inspirational. That man, on the air, off the air, that man gives you amazing, amazing advice. Absolutely. The reason I named my first book Black Privilege was because of Steve Harvey. Really? Yes, because when I told him my original book title,
Starting point is 00:58:18 my original book title was going to be called I Don't Give a F and Neither Should You, A Self-Help Guide on How Not to Give a F. And we was riding around his ranch in Atlanta and he goes nah player that ain't it he goes that ain't it man he says you got too much to say
Starting point is 00:58:34 you got too much life experience and you got too much wisdom you can share with people and he was like we need to give an F he said people need to give an F too many people not giving an F we need to give an F and I said, people need to give a F. Too many people not giving a F. We need to give a F. And I said, you know what?
Starting point is 00:58:48 You're right. And so I dug a little deeper. Dug a little deeper. Black privilege. Yeah, no. When I spoke to him this morning, he was very proud. He was like, we need more brothers, more black men to talk about their experiences and to be transparent as you are. He was like, that's why he wrote his book.
Starting point is 00:59:01 And he said, we just need to be more transparent. So he was very proud of where I came and my evolution. Because he said when he started reading and seeing how I was at 17, he was like, man. He was like, but the fact that you evolved and became a better man is what made him so proud. So shout out to Steve Harvey. Hold on, you're missing one part. He said, and I ain't never had a problem making my wife orgasm. At 17, I was laying it down. He didn't say that to me. He didn't say that to me.
Starting point is 00:59:26 He didn't say that to me. He said, I could tell I was early on because you got six kids now, so you must have been putting it down. That's what he did say. He didn't say anything about that. First of all, there's plenty of weak penis out here that's gotten women pregnant. Tell us about it. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Tell us about it, Charlamagne. You must know. I like that. I like that. That was a nice return. I like that. I like that. Touche.
Starting point is 00:59:44 When we come back, we got the rumors on the way. Angelina's getting her makeup done somewhere out there. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is the Rumor Report with Angelina Yee on the Breakfast Club. All right.
Starting point is 00:59:59 Well, in June, a little baby documentary will be premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival. It's called Untrapped, The Story of Lil Baby. It's directed and written by esteemed filmmaker Karam Gill and will detail the explosive rise of the Atlanta rapper Lil Baby. We'll also attend the premiere and give a special performance after the screening. I think Lil Baby's so dope as an artist and as a person and as a human being. I've seen a lot of artists in this industry, and what he does for his community,
Starting point is 01:00:25 the fact that he gives back so much, whether it's through giving clothes, sneakers, or doing basketball courts over, or just mentoring the kids. And he gets busy, so salute to Lil Baby. Yeah, and it's a lot of people don't know about Lil Baby. I'm actually on that documentary. So salute to my man P and QC.
Starting point is 01:00:41 But Lil Baby has a very, very interesting story. And to your point, Envy, that is one of the biggest things about Lil Baby, how connected he is to his community. He is neighborhood Lil Baby, for real, for real. I write in DJ K Slay that Memorial for him will be held at the Apollo.
Starting point is 01:00:58 So that's going to be happening on Sunday, April 24th. The details on the service include an obituary that sums up the impact that DJ K. Slay had on hip-hop culture. They said as a child he was drawn to disco, dancing the hustle when early hip-hop DJs began turning breakbeats from those songs into proto-rap music. He traveled to the Bronx to observe and participate in the rising culture. He would hop on the 6 train and go up to the Bronx River Center to see Afrika Bambaataa and the Zulu Nation rock. And that's when he took up
Starting point is 01:01:25 the affiliated art forms of breakdancing and graffiti, even casually rapping with his friends, mastering every element of hip-hop culture. Yeah, that's I mean, again, that's a sad and horrible one. He was so big for hip-hop and the DJ community and what he created and what
Starting point is 01:01:41 he did. Like, he was huge on independent artists and breaking independent artists and if it wasn't for him, a like he was huge on independent artists and breaking independent artists and if it wasn't for him a lot of those uh new york independent artists and new york street rappers wouldn't have a shot or chance and he gave him that opportunity and he represented for the jails and all the streets all day long every day so definitely rest in peace k slay and condolences to his family all right now lizzo recently did an interview with angie martinez uh two people who I love. And in that interview, she talked about a lot of things.
Starting point is 01:02:09 She talked about a viral moment. She got some backlash over some comments about Swae Lee and Future. And here is what she had to say about that. Is Lizzo a rapper? I got f***ing annihilated on the internet. Early days, early days. When I was tweeting, I was like, I was like, yo, like there's a lot of rappers that are actually singers, but they call them rappers because of their aesthetic. And they're using melody. They're using melody to create music.
Starting point is 01:02:38 And I think it's a beautiful thing. And so I was like, yo, you know, I, I rap and I sing and I do the same, but I am as much as a rapper as Sway Lee or Future, and I got destroyed by them. They was like, shut up. No fat bitches in the club. No, shut up. And I was like, what did I do? She's not wrong, though.
Starting point is 01:02:57 Yeah, she's not. She said she ended up deleting her message after all of the backlash. I can't even understand why that would get backlash. Well, yeah, because it's not like she called Future and Sway Lee singers. She just said that they're rappers who use melodies, which is a fact. And by the way, they are singing. They may be rappers that sing, but they're still singing. She's not wrong.
Starting point is 01:03:15 It doesn't sound like anything malicious. I don't understand. Now, she also talks about keeping her relationships private because she does have a bae, and she has not revealed to the world who he is. But here's what she had to say. Is Lizzo single? What?
Starting point is 01:03:28 What is the next one? What's the next question? Will you ever be one of those people who likes putting relationship? Or will you always be private and mind your business, everyone? It's keep what you love secret. You know, and I think that that's really important to keep the things you love a secret because it's yours, you know, and it keeps it special. It keeps it safe. If you keep it a secret, you're keeping it safe.
Starting point is 01:03:58 And I think that love is worth protecting. All right. Well, that works for her. So not mad at that at all. And she also talked about being a vegan. Here's what she had to say. Is Lizzo a vegan? No, I'm a vegan.
Starting point is 01:04:13 I was thinking about ****. Sorry. I'm a vegan. Excuse me? Why did that? Did something bring that up for you? Yeah. Or did it just happen?
Starting point is 01:04:20 No, yeah. Did something I said? It was the way you looked at me. Oh, you felt at me Oh you felt I don't know what's happening Yeah I would bottom for you For sure You know what
Starting point is 01:04:31 It's so sweet I have a soft Pink side You could be soft and pale You could be your verse I'm Capricorn Capricorn let I'm Yorba. Capricorns, let's go.
Starting point is 01:04:49 All right, well, yes, she was asked about being a vegan, and somehow she was thinking about penis during that time. I could see the correlation, though. What was the correlation between Angie Martinez and penis? I was going to ask you what word got bleeped. Penis, yeah. I mean, I can't say it still. But she said she looked at Angie Martinez and thought about penis? She said, sorry, that's what she was just thinking about.
Starting point is 01:05:06 I don't know why. But, I mean, I understand. When vegan, I do think penis. But I don't think Angie Martinez would think penis. Lizzo did. I don't know. Salute to Angie Martinez. You think no meat, and then automatically you think.
Starting point is 01:05:20 All right. Well, anyway, that is your rumor reports. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, don't forget, ASCII is coming up. 800-585-1051. If you got a question for Yee, phone lines are wide open. Again, ASCII is coming up in a little bit.
Starting point is 01:05:32 800-585-1051. Now, Charlamagne, who you giving your dog to? Hey, man, it's 420. Let's talk about drugs. Why don't we? Okay. Okay. There's a young man named Roy Porter and his partner, Jared Mayo.
Starting point is 01:05:43 They need to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with them. And by partner, I don't mean sexual. I just mean like partner. Like P-A-T-N-A. All right. All right. We'll get to that next.
Starting point is 01:05:52 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. What up, y'all? It's DJ Envy. Make the switch to the general insurance, and you could save over $500 on your car insurance. Imagine what you could do with 500 on your car insurance imagine what
Starting point is 01:06:05 you could do with that money right call 800 general or visit the general.com the general auto insurance services inc and insurance agency nashville tennessee some restrictions apply don't be out here acting like a donkey it's time for day i'm a big boy i could take it if you feel i deserve it ain't no no big deal. I know Charlamagne Tha God gonna have some funny shit to say out his mouth. If I say something you may not agree with, it doesn't mean I mean it. Who's getting that donkey? That donkey. That donkey.
Starting point is 01:06:32 Donkey. Donkey. Donkey. Donkey of the Day right there. It's a breakfast club, bitches. You can call me the Donkey of the Day, but like, I mean no harm. Yeah, it's Donkey of the Day for Wednesday, April 20th. Goes to a Bridgeport, West Virginia man named Roy Porter and his partner, Jared Mille. It is not lost on me that today's Don Quixote Day is on 420,
Starting point is 01:06:53 the day that millions of Americans celebrate a drug that still remains illegal in America. Yes, weed still remains classified as the Schedule 1 illegal drug federally. One of Biden's campaign promises was that he was going to federally decriminalize weed. But like most of Biden's big campaign promises, it hasn't happened. I do love the fact that the federal government has continued to let states implement marijuana reform without too much federal intervention. That is a great thing. But the lack of clarity from the administration has caused complications for the industry and consumers. We could get a lot more marijuana reform if it was legalized or at least decriminalized on a federal level.
Starting point is 01:07:30 OK, you still got people in federal prison over nonviolent weed offenses. OK, it's simply not where it needs to be, people. Now, what does that have to do with today's donkey of the day? Well, I mean, today's donkey of the day is drug related, but we're not talking marijuana. We're talking meth. Okay, not the M-E-T-H-O-D, man, but the M-E-T-H amphetamine. Okay, see, Roy and Jared went to jail and have been charged with possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance. Now, look, I've had those same charges, ironically, with weed, though.
Starting point is 01:08:01 Okay, I actually had possession with intent to sell or whatever the hell it was. And I was charged with selling to an undercover. So, look, it happens. But oftentimes, it's not that you, you know, got caught. It's how you get caught. See, I wasn't trying to get caught when I got caught. Okay, can you imagine a roadrunner ever just handing his ass over to Wile E. Coyote? Whoa. Is there a generation of people who don't even know who Wile E. Coyote is? Envy, ask me to explain who Wile E. Coyote. Whoa. Is there a generation of people who don't even know who Wile E. Coyote is?
Starting point is 01:08:26 Envy asked me to explain who Wile E. Coyote is. Explain who Wile E. Coyote is. Well, Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner were Looney Tunes cartoons, and Wile E. Coyote used to chase the Roadrunner all the time because he was hungry as hell, which I never understood because I want to know what was he eating that gave him energy to do all that cardio. But the point I'm making is imagine if the Roadrunner just ran up to Wiley Coyote and jumped in his mouth. Just imagine, just imagine why. Just imagine the roadrunner went right down
Starting point is 01:08:55 Wiley Coyote's throat. That would be strange, right? Well, what Roy Porter did was the equivalent of that. Let's go to WDTV CBS 5 for the report, please. Two Harrison County men were arrested after officers saw what appeared to be crystal meth. According to a criminal complaint, officers conducted a traffic stop on I-79 on Sunday for improper registration. The driver, 57-year-old Roy Porter of West Union, went to hand officers what he believed to be a packet of registration information on the vehicle when a small plastic bag fell out. Officers say it contained crystal-like substances that is consistent with methamphetamine. An officer with a canine arrived on the scene and gave a positive ID that it was in fact drugs. Officers found two plastic bags filled with over 200 grams of what appeared to be crystal meth on the passenger, Jared Mail.
Starting point is 01:09:49 Both men were taken to the Bridgeport Police Department for processing before being taken to North Central Regional Jail. Let me tell you something, man. If you are out here handing the police officer your drugs when you get pulled over then you have already had too much of your own drugs and this story right here has happened to me okay I'm sure if you search Breakfast Club or brilliant idiot archives you have heard me tell this story before same exact thing happened to me in Fort Lee New Jersey back in like 07 or 08 I'm riding with someone we get pulled over dude Dude hands the cops a packet. In the packet was his license, insurance card, registration, and four grams of cocaine.
Starting point is 01:10:31 That's right. Four grams of blow, that bump, that booger sugar, whatever you want to call it. He handed it right to the cops and then acted like the cops planted it on him. So we all went to jail and he didn't admit it was his until we already were down at the station and booked so these things happen but they usually happen to extremely stupid individuals okay who are on drugs and I'm gonna tell you Roy just like I told my partner when he did the same thing you got to be about the stupidest some of a bitch okay I'm out here we all out here trying to duck the law I don't even do anything illegal and I'm trying to duck the law. I don't even do anything illegal, and I'm trying to duck the law. I'm scared just reaching for my registration and insurance.
Starting point is 01:11:09 Meanwhile, you out here just crashing into the law and saying, here is my insurance registration license, and what do you need to arrest me? Oh, a little meth? Here's four grams. Matter of fact, I got somebody riding with me. He's got 220 grams of meth on him. Take us both in. And I got one question for 21-year-old Jared Mayle.
Starting point is 01:11:30 You had 220 grams of meth on you. What's wrong with your legs? If your man Roy is stupid enough to just give the drugs to the police, then you got to be stupid enough to run. You're 21. You probably would have gotten away okay but no roy handed the cops the meth with his license and registration and insurance and you just sat there waiting to get locked up like you got a boyfriend in jail you couldn't wait to get back home to well roy porter has been charged with conspiracy to commit a
Starting point is 01:11:59 felony he is currently being held on a five thousand dollar bond and jared who had 220 grams of meth was charged with possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance. He's out on bond. No need to play a game of guess what race it is. West Virginia, meth, low bonds, one already out on bond. We know what this is. Please let Chelsea Handler give Roy Potter and Jared Mail the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw.

Starting point is 01:13:14 Hey, Kim, what's your question for Yeezy? So I'm currently in a sexual relationship and it's strictly just sex. But we have, you know, outside conversations outside of that and everything. And I'm kind of catching feelings, but I was under the impression and I was understanding that it was strictly sex and only sex, but I think I want more, and I don't know how to approach the situation. Okay. I'm going to the sexual part, because even if you don't want it, I still want the sex.
Starting point is 01:13:41 Do you guys ever do anything besides have sex like go places, maybe to dinner or a movie or anything? No. So maybe you should try to see if he's receptive to even like, hey, let's grab some lunch first and see what he says about that. That's how you could kind of start to fill it out to see what it is that
Starting point is 01:14:00 he may want if he might want to do more than just have sex. Have you ever tried to do that? No. Yeah. Because I he might want to do more than just have sex. Have you ever tried to do that? No. Yeah. Because I didn't want to ruin that part. I didn't want to ruin it. I didn't want to pretty much get rejected.
Starting point is 01:14:14 And then there's nothing left. Because I think, you know, you guys had this understanding. And I get what you mean. The way this relationship started and you guys had this and then you don't want to say that. And then he's like, oh, man, now she's starting to catch feelings. I don't even want to be around for that but you never know now if there's something that he likes doing or you know something that you know that he enjoys be like hey somebody told me about this we should just go do this and see what his response is
Starting point is 01:14:35 you know like if you know there's a game on or something like that and you're like yo we should go watch the game and see how he reacts to that. That's how you could feel out if he's interested in doing more than just being in the bedroom. That makes sense. So it's the rejection part. So if you say no, like, how do I continue to have a sexual relationship? Or should I just cut it off? I think that if you want more and you know it, your feelings will end up getting hurt if you continue to just sleep with this man.
Starting point is 01:15:04 That's why you got to know. up getting hurt if you continue to just sleep with this man. That's why you gotta know. Because either way, you need to know. It could either turn into something that could be more or it might be something that you have to spare your own feelings. You guys aren't on the same vibe and the same wavelength and if you want to be in a relationship at some point and he's
Starting point is 01:15:20 not open or receptive to it, then it's better for you to know. Okay. I know it's hard, girl. My feelings get hurt. Yeah. But you know what? I mean, either way, you could drag this out even longer.
Starting point is 01:15:35 How? No, I'm saying if you don't say something, you'll end up dragging this out even longer. And if it's not what he wants, then your feelings will eventually get hurt. And it might be more hurtful later when you're even more invested. Yeah, you got a point. Do y'all ever talk about personal things? Yeah. Okay, so you have...
Starting point is 01:15:52 I know that he would be my person. I know that he would be my person. But it's just, we got so much in common. We vibe so well when we do have conversation. But we don't go out because I don't want to push it. And then he rejected and then I'm left with not even sex. So, you know, you miss 100% of the shots that you don't take, though. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:16 I don't be mad if I take this shot and I'm in. I'm in for the whole game. It's either you do that or you just stay quiet and keep on doing what he wants without getting what you want. Wouldn't you rather know? Yeah, I would. Okay. Well, good luck, man. Maybe the best thing will happen and he'll be like, okay.
Starting point is 01:16:35 Well, I got my fingers crossed on that one. All right. We're going to pray for you. All right. Thank you. All right. Ask E. 800-585-1051.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? This is Taneika. Hey, what's your question for you?
Starting point is 01:17:08 Yes, I have a question. My question is, I have a daughter that's 37 years old, and she's been living with her baby daddy. She got three kids with him, and now she's wanting to have this traditional wedding and say she's going on a honeymoon. And I'm like, you're not going on a honeymoon, you're probably going to be
Starting point is 01:17:23 on vacation, because you probably won't even have sex on the vacation, you know, on the so-called honeymoon. Y'all been together 12 years. So I'm just trying to tell her there's a difference between a honeymoon and a vacation. If she wants to get married and go on a honeymoon, what's wrong with that? I'm just saying they've been living together for 12 years. So marriages might make.
Starting point is 01:17:43 That's not a honeymoon. That could help and it could change the dynamics of their relationship and make it even stronger. I mean, why can't she just say vacation? To me, I'm like, I guess I'm traditional. I feel like a honeymoon should be for someone who hasn't slept together. Oh, girl, you know how many people done slept together and still went on a honeymoon?
Starting point is 01:18:00 I just be trying to tell my daughter don't be saying stuff like that, you know? Listen, to me, a honeymoon is what you do after you get married. It don't matter what your situation is. It's a honeymoon. Okay. All right. I hear you.
Starting point is 01:18:14 Yeah. I mean, like, that's a small thing to even be concerned about. You know, you should be happy for her that she's... I am happy for her, but what I'm saying is I'm just traditional. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:18:24 That's just me. Be happy for all of it. This is already not like what you would consider a traditional situation. So, you know, whatever she... Exactly. So I don't even want her going to church doing all that like that. It's not like... I don't know.
Starting point is 01:18:37 But you... Okay, I hear you, E. Yeah, just be supportive, man. Who is E? She's trying to say you. She's saying me. I hear you. Just be supportive, though.

Starting point is 01:19:29 Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. All right, well, Bandino was on It's Tricky with Raquel Harper, podcast for TMZ, and he talks about taking legal action against 50 Cent, and he compared him to 6ix9ine.
Starting point is 01:19:45 Here's what he had to say. Talking about a man that is on paperwork, ratting. We're talking about a man whose lyrics that was used in federal indictments to indict a bunch of people. I mean, when you look at how he is. Are you saying 50 is a snitch? He's the first 6ix9ine. You know, like the first hip-hop rat. That's a fact.
Starting point is 01:20:03 Now, he's gone on to do great things. But how do you, so it's a, so 50 cents on papers? Rock. No, seriously. Is he really on papers for real? Rock, rock. You don't remember with Murder, Inc., he filed paperwork against Murder, Inc.
Starting point is 01:20:16 Back then, you had to take a pen and a piece of paper and write on that mother f***ing sign. And that's what he did. Has 50 responded yet? I'm sure he is. Yeah, I don't think 50's concerned so much. No, I don't think he responded yet. 50 don't need to be concerned.
Starting point is 01:20:29 50's like everybody else. He likes the content. He's just going to have some fun later on Instagram, I'm sure. I'll tell you who did respond, DJ Envy. TMZ, slick. They be catching me everywhere. But yeah, no, all I said is, you know, they were asking about some of the things 50 said
Starting point is 01:20:41 and I pretty much said, well, 50 said is my brother and I can't talk bad about the brother. He's done nothing but great things for me. There's certain people like, I can't talk bad about Charlamagne. I can't talk bad about Angelina. Certain things, I'm not going to. So it is what it is. All right.
Starting point is 01:20:56 Am I wrong for that? No, no, not at all. All right. Now, Nicki Minaj is asking for rappers to send verses for the We Go Up remix. So I can't wait to hear what this is going to sound like. She posted, going once, going twice. Are there any rappers that would like a verse on the We Go Up remix? The instrumental is on iTunes.
Starting point is 01:21:14 F it up and send it to me. And she said, that's what the F I used to do, but that is I and I am him. Slim thick with the tilted brim. We Go Up video out now. Okay. Who do you think should be on this remix? I haven't heard the song. I got to with the Tilted Brim. We Go Up video out now. Okay. Who do you think should be on this remix? I haven't heard the song. I got to hear the song.
Starting point is 01:21:28 I haven't heard We Go Up yet. Well, you know, right now it is her and Fabio Foran. So, all right. And Jada Pickett-Smith's Red Table Talk. That trailer has been released. A lot of people were saying that Will Smith was planning to go on and make his first statements in person on Red Table Talk, but we did not see him on that trail.
Starting point is 01:21:47 Yeah, I wouldn't want to see Will on Red Table Talk, just because I just feel like that would be kind of performative. You know what I mean? I think that when you actually are doing the work and seeking real healing, you don't have to do the interview about it. Absolutely. I think he and I should go on Red Table Talk. I think that would be fun. Man, that's the only thing that would have
Starting point is 01:22:08 made that conversation about not having an orgasm for 10 years better if it was on Red Table Talk. Because everybody was saying you Will Smith 2.0. I saw people saying that yesterday. I saw somebody say Gia graduated from Jada Pinkett Smith University. And the crazy thing about it,
Starting point is 01:22:23 which I don't understand, is I'm the one that told the story on The Breakfast Club first. We've been talking about it for the last two years. It kind of just hit different, I think. Yeah, I don't know. We've been talking about it on the podcast. It wasn't something that I'm ashamed of or she embarrassed me. We've been talking about it. Man, hey, please go on Red Table Talk.
Starting point is 01:22:37 I would love to see Gia and Jada Pinkett Smith jumping you. Do that for me. Do that for my birthday. Go around summertime. Okay. Around June. We'll try to set it up. I'm excited that Janelle Monae is on this season.
Starting point is 01:22:48 I love to hear her. She's been doing amazing. And Future was on the cover of GQ magazine and some of the things he talked about is his new music, working with Drake, calling him the most influential, and quote, toxic talk. You know, there was a great debate online
Starting point is 01:23:03 yesterday and it made its way to my group chat because I guess on the front of GQ, they put best rapper alive for future. And Elliot Wilson did the article, actually read the article yesterday. Best rapper alive is always subjective, but future has been your favorite rappers, favorite rapper for about a decade now.
Starting point is 01:23:23 So that's not a reach to me for somebody to put best rapper alive next to him that may not be my personal you know take but i recognize future's influence and i do enjoy future's music but like i said he's been your favorite rapper's favorite rapper for about a decade and best rapper alive is subjective so it just depends on who you asking yeah it's not it's not a horrible take. It's not something that you'll be like, where did that come from? Not for Future. Every metric from radio to clubs to streets, touring,
Starting point is 01:23:56 whatever it is you want to, streaming. He was the number five most streamed artist of the decade of any genre. Future's a GOAT. And you know who else people love a lot that I hear a lot? Young Thug. Young Thug, yep. And I saw he posted that he has, you know, a new album cover.
Starting point is 01:24:11 He said, these past few weeks gave me so much to talk about, y'all ready. So that should be coming soon, too. I think he dropping the same day as Future, if I'm not mistaken. But I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.

I'm talking about kid books. I'm talking about hardcover books, softcover books. I'm talking about the keto diet and all that. So to get in the top 100
Starting point is 01:28:00 is an amazing feat. And yesterday we broke the top 20 in just books and oil at all. Yeah, on Amazon. I mean, Amazon literally has millions and millions and millions and millions of books.
