Starting point is 00:00:00 Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Or maybe not. No country willingly gives up their territory. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:00:16 What is that? Bullets. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. We need help! That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast
Starting point is 00:00:46 Post Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. The Breakfast Club. Man, what the hell is this, man? Breakfast Club, bitches. I'm glad they put y'all together.
Starting point is 00:01:45 Y'all are like a mega force. Y'all just took over every... Wake your punk ass up. This is Chris Brown. I've officially joined the Breakfast Club. Say something, mother... I'm with it. The world's most dangerous morning show.
Starting point is 00:01:56 Breakfast Club, bitches. Good morning, Angela Yee. Good morning, TJMV. Charlamagne Tha God. Peace to the planet. It's Monday. Yes, it's Monday. Back to the work. That's right. This ain't no goddamn recording. No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:02:34 We are here. We are here live. We are live. In the flesh. That's right. And corona free as far as we know. That is absolutely positively right. And we haven't gotten tested yet. Nope.
Starting point is 00:02:43 Everybody got to get tested, right? You almost have to. Even if you're not feeling those symptoms, once these tests are available and they're a little bit more sophisticated, we got to get tested, right? Yeah, because a lot of people have no signs, have no symptoms and are spreading. So, yeah, you definitely have to get tested. Or, you know, like what everybody else is doing, self-quarantine. I think after this, I think we all go back to the crib and just sit and chill and wait. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:03:05 I kind of like being here. I'm not going to lie to you. I do. I really do. I didn't know. At first I was like, eh. But then I'm like, you know, there really is no place I would rather be. Because, you know, you talk to your partners.
Starting point is 00:03:15 You know, you got partners that are comedians and artists. And like, you know, their shows have been canceled for the next couple of months. I'm like, man, this is a pretty good profession. Yeah. To be able to come to, you know, to get on the microphone and just talk to the people in this crazy time. Yeah, and let me shout out to, I was in Orlando over the weekend. And Orlando, I guess they follow everything Disney World does.
Starting point is 00:03:37 So Disney's not closed until today. When I say they were still spring breaking out there, there were thousands and thousands and thousands of people. And I know people were mad because I wasn't taking no pictures. I was, you know, elbow bumping everybody. But we had a good time. Shout out to everybody that came out to the beach. Shout out to our sister station out there.
Starting point is 00:03:56 All of y'all, I was watching on Instagram, watching everybody party in all of these different places. I'm like, they acting like the cure for the coronavirus is a hookah. The way that they partying this weekend. That's right. 104.5 The Beat. Shout to D Strong
Starting point is 00:04:09 and all of them. I was thinking 135 The Beat, my bad. And shout out to my girl Koya. Shout out to Koya. I was thinking people got self-quarantined in the club this weekend.
Starting point is 00:04:16 The way that I saw everybody having a grand old time. Well, here in New York, they shut down clubs and bars and restaurants. And they should. There's no more eating in.
Starting point is 00:04:25 You can only eat out. Well, bars and, yeah, you can take out. And I'm in Detroit right now. Actually, Castile had her birthday party over the weekend. So people were out and about for that. She had a couple of parties. Okay. But.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Now, you know, now for me, with having five kids at home is you got to make it fun. So what we're doing is every day is a different theme. So Monday is Movie Monday with a family family and I will, you know, watch a couple of movies together. Tuesday is Taco Tuesdays. We'll design and make different tacos. Wednesday is Wacky Wednesdays. We'll wear crazy clothes.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Thursday is Tour Thursdays where we'll pick a place on the map and then we'll just read up about it or watch a movie on it. And then Friday's Pizza Friday. We'll make some pizza at the crib. You got better features at the house than you do on this goddamn breakfast club. Let me tell you something, though. That's regular.
Starting point is 00:05:12 We do all that in the house anyway. Taco Tuesdays is regular. Movie nights, all that's regular. Yeah, but you got to do it now consistently because the kids at home, they have nothing to do. So you got to make it fun for them. So they look forward to Movie Mondays. They're picking out all the movies they can watch today.
Starting point is 00:05:24 And Taco Tuesday, they're designing Dorito tacos today and chicken tacos and beef tacos. And then Wednesday, they're picking out their clothes,
Starting point is 00:05:31 wacky clothes that they can wear. Just trying to make it fun because we're going to be home for a while. As far as we know. Now, what about schooling? I know a lot of people
Starting point is 00:05:38 are doing online schools. Have they said anything about that? Yeah, my first grader, her first class is today at 9 a.m. She has to watch school. I guess she's schooling through the laptop.
Starting point is 00:05:48 And my son, he already started last week, which is crazy because they're making him dress up. He goes to Catholic school. That's dumb. And they're making him dress up. He has to put on his clothes and everything. And the teacher does attendance to make sure he has his clothes on and all that. I don't know if that's whacking. You know what I was thinking, too?
Starting point is 00:06:03 I was thinking about this this morning. It takes, what, I think they say 30 days to make something a habit. If you do something consistently for 30 days. I guess that's not Loans on and all that I don't know how to I don't know if that's whacking Now you know I was thinking too I was thinking about this This morning Like it takes what I think they say 30 days To make something a habit Like if you do something Consistently for 30 days When these 30 days is up The first thing you should do
Starting point is 00:06:11 Is like hug somebody you love Right Or get him a real handshake And a pound and dab Because 30 days of like This elbow stuff we doing Right We already so disconnected
Starting point is 00:06:21 Because of the smart phones Right Right So now they really Disconnecting us Because you can't even show love to your people. That is right. You know, so after 30 days, make sure you hug your people really, really, really strong and hard. And also, if you have elderly people in your family, your parents, your grandparents,
Starting point is 00:06:37 like yesterday I drove to Queens and I dropped off supplies to my mom, my dad, and my mother-in-law dropped off masks and water and all different things, toilet paper, everything, anything that they needed. And I really, I couldn't see them. I couldn't give my mom a hug. You know, I had to, she stayed in the house and we talked through the, pretty much through the window because I didn't want to get that close to her just in case, because I'm out and about and I have it.
Starting point is 00:06:58 And it's, it's, you know, it can be death for elderly people. So that was a tough one. You mean you're out and about and you, if you come in contact with me. If I have, yeah. If I have. You said you had it. No, no you're out and about and if you come in contact with me. If I have a... You said you had it. No, no. If I have been in contact with... That'd be dope, you said?
Starting point is 00:07:10 I mean, cuz, you'd be the first radio personality to announce that they have it. That's something I don't want. I don't want that. Listen, think ratings at a time like this, okay? If we gonna be here,
Starting point is 00:07:19 we still gonna think ratings at a time like this, Envy. Don't put that on me. Well, you said it. I didn't mean to say it. You don't wanna be gay. You have to have the coronavirus. One of the two. Okay? Front page news is coming up.
Starting point is 00:07:30 What are we talking about? We'll talk about the Democratic debate that happened in Washington, D.C. And of course we'll give you some updates on coronavirus and what's happening. Alright, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 00:07:47 We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Where we starting with, Yee? Well, let's start with the Democratic debate that happened in Washington, D.C. It was actually supposed to take place in front of a live crowd in Arizona. But because of coronavirus, they did move it to the Washington, D.C. studios. Now, amongst the things that they discussed, of course, was coronavirus first and foremost. Here is what Biden had to say about coronavirus and what he would do.
Starting point is 00:08:11 I've laid out a plan building on Obamacare, providing a public option of Medicare that would cover everyone. This is a crisis. This is like we are being attacked from abroad. This is something that is of great consequence. This is like we are being attacked from abroad. This is something that is of great consequence. This is like a war. And in a war, you do whatever is needed to be done to take care of your people. And I have proposed it, laid it out in detail. Everything that you need in terms of dealing with this crisis would be free.
Starting point is 00:08:39 It is paid for by the taxpayers generally. It has nothing to do with Bernie's Medicare for all. All right, now Bernie Sanders also laid out his plan of what he would do for coronavirus right now. First thing we have got to do is to shut this president up right now because he is undermining the doctors and the scientists who are trying to help the American people. Second of all, what we need to do to make sure that every person in this country finally understands that when they get sick with the coronavirus, that all payments will be made. Second of all, we have to make sure that our hospitals have the ventilators that they need, have the ICU units that they need. We have a lack of medical personnel.
Starting point is 00:09:21 And bottom line, from an economic point of view, if you lose your job, you will be made whole. You're not going to lose income. I like those answers. I didn't like the question. I thought that the moderator should have asked, what did this administration get wrong, you know, during this coronavirus outbreak? And then what would you do if you were president? That's what I would have asked. All right. Well, there's millions of students who are out of school right now. Restaurants are prohibited from letting people come inside at a lot of places. Right now, there are at least 30, almost 3,500 cases and 65 fatalities in the United States. They're talking about social distancing, which is the way that people eat, work, study, and socialize.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Just stay away from each other right now. Now, other things they discussed during this debate was Joe Biden said he would have a woman as vice president. I committed that if I'm elected president, have an opportunity to appoint someone to the courts will be I'll appoint the first black woman to the courts. It's required that they have representation now. It's long overdue. Secondly, if I'm elected president, my my cabinet, my administration will look like the country. And I commit that I will, in fact, appoint a, I'll pick a woman to be vice president. Just to be clear, you just committed here tonight that your running mate, if you get the nomination, will be a woman? Yes.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Senator Sanders, if you get the nomination, will you? In all likelihood, I will. I mean, that's what it's going to take for me to vote for Joe Biden. And another thing that's under the radar, what he said, the first black woman, he said specifically first black woman in the Supreme Court and a woman is running mate. I think that he needs a woman, a woman of color is running mate as well. It's probably going to be Stacey Abrams, Senator Kamala Harris, or a woman named Catherine Cortez Mastow or Masto from Nevada.
Starting point is 00:11:02 I think she's Latino. All right. Well, that is your front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to hit us up right now. Call us up. Let's talk about it, man.
Starting point is 00:11:14 A lot to talk about. Also, next hour, 8 o'clock hour, Ice Cube will be joining us. So we'll kick it with Cube as well. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart?
Starting point is 00:11:27 Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia.
Starting point is 00:11:46 I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tried my country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder,
Starting point is 00:12:03 you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the
Starting point is 00:12:11 off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app,

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,
Starting point is 00:13:39 learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.
Starting point is 00:14:09 It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

Starting point is 00:18:04 I just want to say that I love you guys so much. I got here last year from the States, and my brother, he put on the radio, and I have to say that I love the breakfast
Starting point is 00:18:15 because the breakfast was so good, great. How are you guys feeling about the corona this season? Stop asking dumbass questions. Of course we're not happy about no goddamn corona. What do you mean,
Starting point is 00:18:23 how do we feel about the corona? All I'm saying is that it's just scary. It's just, you know, everybody's going crazy. Everyone's buying toilet paper and everything else. How's it affecting you? I don't know. I don't know how to feel. Everyone's buying toilet paper and paper towel.
Starting point is 00:18:36 I just don't know how to feel. By the way, that's a good way to feel. I don't know. I think that we all have to lean into the uncertainty of it all because we don't know. And everybody needs to stop acting like they do know because you don't. And you got to remember, man, take care of the elderly, too. If you got an elderly person that lives on your block, in your neighborhood, in your building, make sure they are okay. You know, you don't want them necessarily to leave the house because it can be fatal to them.
Starting point is 00:19:00 So please take care of your elderly. Take care of your parents, your grandparents. Like I said, I had to stop by my mom's house Drop off water, masks, toilet paper My mother-in-law as well Just make sure you take care of them, man Hello, who's this? Yo, it's Dad out of 704
Starting point is 00:19:14 What's up, bro? Get it off your chest What's good, man? Good morning to y'all Good morning I just want to go and talk about this coronavirus, man I really think there's a lot of information that's being left out The government isn't telling us about it, man. Because it's really weird at first to kind of downplay it. To everybody just be, you know, cautious out here.
Starting point is 00:19:32 Wash your hands. You know, be careful who you're around. But yet, when there's a lot of white men that are billionaires that are willing to lose millions and billions of dollars, that just don't add up to me, man. Like, at the end of the day, if this goes on, the rate that we're going right now, in three months, if the containers are going to work, going, I mean, this country's going to suffer, like, so much money lost,
Starting point is 00:19:53 and it's going to be a crazy rebuild. So I don't think white men would be so willing to lose billions of dollars if it wasn't more to the situation. And another thing that hasn't been talked about as much, man, is there's a professor in Harvard who was recently arrested back in January of this year for sharing research information with
Starting point is 00:20:12 the university and Wuhan China. So, I mean, a lot of this stuff doesn't add up. Man, I really feel like there's more to it that's really not being talked about. I'm going to be honest with you. I think America's just spoiled. You know, my homegirl from South Africa, Bonong, was here last week and she don't understand a lot of the hysteria because she was
Starting point is 00:20:27 like, yo, I come from a country where they got malaria. You know what I'm saying? She's like, we went through Ebola. So this is just something new for America. That's all. Yeah, but that means we definitely are still scared, though. And they said they're going to give the first volunteer a vaccine shot today.
Starting point is 00:20:43 That's what they're saying. So I guess there's a volunteer that, I guess, has coronavirus, so they're going to try the vaccine shot on them today. They got a vaccine already? That's what they're saying. I ain't hearing nothing about no vaccine. But I know one thing. I don't know if I would take the vaccine, bro. If you're one of these conspiracy theorists like this guy who just called
Starting point is 00:21:00 and you believe in the fact that they're trying to reduce the population, especially amongst black and brown people, that's what's going to get you. The goddamn vaccine. I don't know. Well, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, it looks like Lamar Odom and Nori
Starting point is 00:21:16 on Drink Champs almost came to blows. We saw a little preview of what's going to happen on that episode. Also, let's talk R. Kelly. He has some more issues right now, and it has to do with herpes. All right, we'll get into that next Keep It Locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Starting point is 00:21:40 So, Stephan Marbury has his A Kid from Coney Island documentary. And that documentary is actually going to be produced, is produced by Forrest Whitaker as well as Kevin Durant. And he's talking about his redemption from fans in China, from Chinese basketball fans. So it should be pretty interesting. They actually did a premiere at Brooklyn Academy of Music. And Forrest Whitaker said, I do relate to Stephon's story
Starting point is 00:22:07 He did greatness, he worked hard, he rose again as a phoenix Really and he came back in a beautiful way And he lets people believe and know that they can come back So That should be pretty interesting And I'm looking forward to seeing that His story is dope, his story is really dope How he left the league, went overseas
Starting point is 00:22:23 And became an international star I'd love to see Stephon Marbury winning Did he ever explain why he was eating Vaseline back in the day? Nope His story is dope. His story is really dope, how he left the league, went overseas, and became an international star. I'd love to see Stephon Marbury winning. Did he ever explain why he was eating Vaseline back in the day? Nope. Oh, okay. I think it's more about him going to China. It actually starts with him landing in China.
Starting point is 00:22:36 He said he was greeted by 5,000 people. When I moved from America, my NBA career was over. When I landed, there were so many people with smiling faces. That's not what people were writing and seeing on TV. I was up against the system and my emotional state of what I thought about my game. Then I go to this place where there's 300 million people who play basketball, and I'm thinking, who are you all here for? And they said, we're here for you. They said they were happy I came to play in their country and their city.
Starting point is 00:22:57 I'd never been to China. I had no clue. So he said when he was received with this type of love, this new energy, you're completely immersed into a world of how other people live and are. That's the uplifting part. I would love to hear how he feels about that. Because I wonder, is love truly love in a situation like that? Because he got plenty of love in China.
Starting point is 00:23:12 Like, they got statues of Stephon Marbury. He does, yeah, he does. But does that equate to the love that he would want over here in America? You understand what I'm saying? Yeah. Because I would think love is love. I'd be happy. Like, okay, they embraced me over here.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Cool. You still want love in your hometown. Where you're from, right? Where you're from. But, you know, he was getting love. You know, think love is love. I'd be happy. Like, okay, they embraced me over here. Cool. You still want love in your hometown where you're from. But, you know, he was getting love. You know, he took a chance and they love him in China. Like I said, it was the best decision he ever made. He was selling sneakers. He was selling out arenas and jerseys. Like you said, yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:23:38 All right. Now let's talk about Nori and Lamar Odom since we're talking basketball. So Lamar Odom is on a new episode of Drink Champs, and it looks like things got a little spicy. Nori has put out a trailer. I feel disrespected. Oh, I'm not saying that.
Starting point is 00:23:58 But what part did it? You felt like I went left? That's a queen's s***. That's a queen's s***. If you Google yourself, you would s***. Hey, turn off all the cameras, guys. Listen, did Drink Champs make Lamar Odom relapse?
Starting point is 00:24:12 I don't know. I was thinking that. When I seen the clip, I said, Norrie, why you got Lamar Odom drinking, man? No, Norrie didn't have him drinking. Lamar Odom's a grown-ass man. Lamar Odom make his own decisions. All I'm simply saying is, Drink Champs is not the show to go on if you have had substance abuse problems, is what I'm saying. Yeah, he's had a lot of past struggles with addiction that are very public with his sobriety.
Starting point is 00:24:30 So not a great idea to drink. I probably would have been like, look, no drinks on this particular one. You probably shouldn't have done Drink Champs. If you Lamar Odom and you got an issue with substance abuse and alcohol and drugs and everything, you probably shouldn't have done Drink Champs. Yeah, you might have wanted to skip the show. I'd have been like, this is a different type of episode. We are going have done Drink Champs. Yeah, you might have wanted to skip out the show. I'd have been like, this is a different type of episode. We are going to do Drink Champs
Starting point is 00:24:47 minus the drinks for once. Drink juices. Nah, that wouldn't be Drink Champs then. If I was Nori, I'm not going to turn down what I do on my show because of you.
Starting point is 00:24:55 I'm just going to tell you, I don't think you should come. That's all. I'm just saying what I think. Lamar probably would. Nori probably would think, well, it's not like we got crack around.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Shut up, man. Shut up. I can't wait to see it, though. I thought it was out already. I was looking all over for it yesterday, but nah, not yet, huh? would think, well, it's not like we got crack around. Shut up, man. Shut up. I can't wait to see it, though. I thought it was out already. I was looking all over for it yesterday, but no, not yet, huh? All right, now, Princess Love and Ray J, you know, they have their series now on Zeus where they're talking about their relationship and the problems and issues that they had. So here is Princess Love talking about Ray J allegedly abandoning her.
Starting point is 00:25:24 You have to have a line of respect. You're not going to just... Respect has gone out the window. You're not just going to jump in and... allegedly abandoning her. You was in a big-ass penthouse kitchen. No, I wasn't. You were in the penthouse kitchen. Babe, babe, babe. I can call your mom right now. Your mom, you, Tony, your other relative was in a nice-ass room. I got a room next to yours. The room that I had to, the room, the new room that I had to check into because I was kicked out of the room that you got me. Sheesh. What the hell did I just talk to? They are really airing out their issues.
Starting point is 00:26:03 Princess Love and Ray J on the Zeus Network going through their problems in their relationship and having conversations about it. I'm all for couples doing counseling and therapy and having conversations, but there's no way you can do it like that with all the cameras around on the Zeus Network. They're both performing at the end of the day.
Starting point is 00:26:19 How can you really have a real in-depth conversation with each other when you worry about ratings and viewers? You worry about how people are looking at you. You got on full makeup. Well, people have done therapy sessions on television on a lot of different networks, so if they feel like this is something that they want to put out there, maybe it'll help other
Starting point is 00:26:35 people. Who knows? Yeah, but they're performing. Come on. Now, R. Kelly has been hit with some new federal charges, and that is for coercion and transport of a minor. And these two new alleged victims, and that is for coercion and transport of a minor. And these two new alleged victims, one was under 18 when she says she had sex with R. Kelly back in 2015, also says that he never told her that he had herpes during their relationship. And there's another woman who says she, too, was exposed to the virus because they had unprotected sex.
Starting point is 00:27:03 In addition, R. Kelly is being hit with new racketeering charges, including allegations that he used force, threats of force, physical restraint and threats of physical restraint as well. So he is still in jail while he's awaiting trial. And he's still saying that he is innocent. R. Kelly going to get more years than albums he ever sold in his life. If you look up whatever R. Kelly's total number of albums is, I don't know what it is. I would probably say 20, 30 million. So he's going to get way more time than that. All right.
Starting point is 00:27:24 So right now, the total new federal charges is nine in New York and 13 in Illinois, as well as pending cases in Illinois State and Minnesota. If Harvey Weinstein got $23, R. Kelly's going to get, who knows? I was about to say $45, Michael Jordan's other number since Harvey got $23, but he'd probably get more than $45. All right. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
Starting point is 00:27:44 All right, Yee. Now we got front page news. Next, what are we talking about? Yes, let's talk about Andrew Gillum. You know, he was running for governor of Florida, and he got into some trouble over the weekend. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:27:59 We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Where we starting, Yee? Well, let's start with Andrew Gillum. Now, there were some issues over the weekend. He was found at the Mondrian Hotel. They said, according to reports, he was in the bathroom vomiting. And according to police, they say one of the men, Aldo Mejia, came into the hotel room and found Andrew Gillum and Travis Dyson,
Starting point is 00:28:21 apparently under the influence of an unknown substance. They did begin chest compressions on Dyson. He was taken to a local hospital. Andrew Gillum was allowed to leave when he had stable medical signs. They did find some baggies of suspected crystal meth that were impounded. They were turned over to the Miami Beach Police Evidence for destruction. So Andrew Gillum was the first black nominee in a major political party to run for governor in Florida.
Starting point is 00:28:44 He did lose narrowly. Now, Andrew Gillum was the first black nominee in a major political party to run for governor in Florida. He did lose narrowly. Now, Andrew Gillum has released a statement. He said, after conversation with my family and deep reflection, I have made the decision to seek help, guidance and enter a rehab facility at this time. This has been a wake up call for me. Since my race for governor ended, I fell into a depression that has led to alcohol abuse. I witnessed my father suffer from alcoholism and I know what I'm blaming, though. What's that? Florida.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Okay? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. I can't even say the story sounds crazy. It just sounds? Florida. Okay, the craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. I can't even say the story sounds crazy. It just sounds like Florida. But I hope Andrew's going into rehab, so I hope he gets the help he's looking for. All right, now let's give you an update on what's going on with coronavirus. There's more than 3,300 cases of coronavirus. 61 people have died in the United States.
Starting point is 00:29:42 According to the CDC, they are recommending that crowds be limited to 50 people or less. That's for the next eight weeks. Las Vegas casinos are shutting down. Donald Trump, when he got tested, they said he is negative. Also, the travel ban has been extended to the UK and Ireland. Right now, the House has passed relief packages providing free testing, sick pay, enhanced unemployment benefits, and food assistance. In sports, the Masters has been postponed. There's no new date scheduled. The Boston Marathon has been postponed until September 14th. NCAA has canceled March Madness.
Starting point is 00:30:13 Major League Baseball delays opening day by two weeks. The NBA has suspended their season. NHL has suspended their season. Also, the NBA and Disney stores are all shutting down right now. So, again, any type of gatherings of 50 people or more across the nation for the next eight weeks, they are saying to cancel or postpone those things. The government is probably going to shut everything down in the next couple of days. I think so.
Starting point is 00:30:36 It's going to look like martial law, but there's this thing called the Stafford Act, where it's just a federal mandate that everybody stay home, everything's closed. They're probably going to have to do that because Negroes and, you know, Caucasians that like to party, they're not going to listen. Right. They don't have the self-discipline to do it on their own. Yeah, now they got to shut this down. Because the clubs are packed this weekend.
Starting point is 00:30:56 They were. Well, the White House has released a statement. A lot of people are saying there's going to be a national lockdown. They said text messages, rumors of a national quarantine are fake. There is no national lockdown. The CDC has and will continue to post the latest guidance on COVID-19, according to this statement. You would have to, though, right?
Starting point is 00:31:15 Like, if you look at China, and China said that's what they had to do. I think they had 100% lockdown. Those people actually listened. They stayed home. They stayed away from work. And now they seem to have gotten their outbreak situation under control. Wouldn't America have to follow suit? I feel like they should have did it already.
Starting point is 00:31:29 You can't have 60. In a situation like this, you can't have 60% of the country listen, 50% of the country listen. Everybody's going to have to be all in in order to prevent this spread of coronavirus. And I agree with you. I think they should have shut it down already. I mean, it's to the point, like you said, you don't know who has it. Some people don't have symptoms. I'm glad they shut the to the point, like you said, you don't know who has it. Some people don't have symptoms. I'm glad they shut the schools down.
Starting point is 00:31:47 But like you said, you got to be careful. Even going to the grocery stores to find groceries. You just never know who you're approaching if they have symptoms or not. And, you know, listen, for those of us who listen and we are responsible, we stay home and we self-quarantine. For everybody else who likes to be in the club, just make their designated quarantine spot a club. For all of y'all who like hookah over health,
Starting point is 00:32:09 just send them to the club and let them quarantine in the club for the next couple weeks. For 14 days? They love the club so much they will stay this weekend. Let them stay there for the next 14 days, smoke their hookah, eat their chicken wings until supplies last, and in two weeks we'll be good. The rest of us will be home, the rest of y'all will be in the club.
Starting point is 00:32:23 My goodness. I'm trying to decide if I should catch this flight back to New York or stay here in Detroit. I'm not sure about the airports right now. My flight is delayed, but it's still happening. Well, the airports are empty. I flew from Orlando over the weekend. What? Did you see Chicago airport in Dallas?
Starting point is 00:32:39 That's international. You know, that's a lot of international. When I flew this weekend, it was empty. Nobody was on my flight. There was nobody nowhere in the airport. It was clear. The roads were clear. Everything was clear.
Starting point is 00:32:48 I'm going to be honest with you. I think that might be where you were, probably. Orlando, LaGuardia. Them pictures they showed us this weekend at them airports, the airports looked crazy. You know, a lot of people flying international and they're quarantining them and checking them before they can release them. Yeah, that was the international airport. And they said they are going to get more people to check everyone and get more customs processing over there in Chicago at O'Hare Airport. That one was a mess.
Starting point is 00:33:10 All right. Well, that is your front page news. I don't even want to see a corona after this. I think they should discontinue the sale of the beer after this. 585-1051. Let's talk grocery stores. I know a lot of you guys have been out there looking for supplies. I know it's been crazy.
Starting point is 00:33:24 Let's talk crazy grocery stores stories. I'm not going to lie. I've been seeing some good fights online. Yeah. Good grocery store fights online. Yeah. What have you seen? What have you been through?
Starting point is 00:33:35 I've been to a couple. I've been to so many different BJ's, Costco's, Kifu's, Stop and Shop. BJ's is a store that sells groceries, sir. You get your mind off the gutter. I'm just trying to figure out how you're passing the time during this quarantine. My goodness. You said you're going to so many different BJ's. Wow.
Starting point is 00:33:51 This guy is crazy. I'm crazy. But I want to know your stories. 800-585-1051. I did notice that in Jersey, they didn't have as much. But when I came to the Queens in Long Island, that's where I seen the water. That's where I seen toilet paper. I seen... Because they go to bodegas first instead of grocery stores.
Starting point is 00:34:10 Maybe that's it. Bodega's empty. Alright, but let's talk about it. 800-585-1051. Your crazy grocery store stories. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Pull out your phone. Call in right now. Call me. Add your opinion to the Breakfast Club topic.
Starting point is 00:34:26 Break it down. 800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this.
Starting point is 00:34:39 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 the first King of Kaperburg. I am the supreme leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with
Starting point is 00:35:09 a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help. We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-A-Stan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.
Starting point is 00:37:02 And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.
Starting point is 00:37:19 You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It's topic time.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, we are here. We are here live. We made it to work. And we're asking 800-585-1051. I know a lot of you guys are going out looking for supplies, whether it's pharmacies, grocery stores, or BJ's, Costco, things like that. We're just asking any crazy stories. Now, Charlamagne, you've been out and about.
Starting point is 00:38:05 You seen anything crazy? Yeah, I've seen empty shelves. That's the craziest thing in the world to me. You know what I mean? I've been on Instagram watching, you know, people have these supermarket scraps, though. But I think the biggest question I have, which my homegirl kind of explained to me yesterday,
Starting point is 00:38:19 like, I don't understand why toilet tissue is gone. Like, why is everybody grabbing toilet tissue? Like, why is toilet tissue sold out everywhere? Like, how much toilet tissue is gone. Like, why is everybody grabbing toilet tissue? Like, why is toilet tissue sold out everywhere? Like, how much toilet tissue does one person need? I can understand water. I can understand, like, you know, things that make your immune system better. But why toilet paper? That's a good question.
Starting point is 00:38:36 I don't know. I really don't know. Well, she said to me that, you know, if you're locked down for two weeks, you know what I mean? You're going to need toilet paper. But I'm like, I don't think I go through that much toilet paper in two weeks. Me personally, I got one, two, three, five people in the house. I don't think we go through that much toilet paper in two weeks.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Yeah, I don't think so either. But I sure got a lot of it, though, just in case. And then, you know, for me, I always grab a lot of supplies, extra supplies for my parents and for my mom, my mother-in-law, just to make sure they are good because I don't want them out. So if I got to get their supplies, I'm going to get extra toilet paper for them. I'm getting extra water for them. I'm getting extra food for them. I, just to make sure they are good because I don't want them out. So if I got to get their supplies, I'm going to get extra toilet paper for them. I'm getting extra water for them.
Starting point is 00:39:07 I'm getting extra food for them. I just want to make sure they are straight. Now, what about you? I know you're in Detroit. Have you seen anything crazy? I'm going to be honest. Detroit is not bad right now. I've been to the supermarket.
Starting point is 00:39:17 It's not crowded. There's plenty of groceries there. I think in Detroit, there's not a lot of cases here. So it doesn't feel like the mayhem that's been happening in New York So I'll tell you, like, I've been to the supermarket No long lines, no issues You know why that's scary? If a city like New York or a place like L.A.
Starting point is 00:39:36 I mean, everybody doesn't have an accurate test, right? Right If they have any test So, of course, a city like Detroit doesn't There's probably a lot of cases in Detroit You know what I mean? But nobody's been tested. Right.
Starting point is 00:39:46 Well, I also think that people are more spread out here. And I think in New York, it's just so much more congested. So I feel like things are spreading faster in a place where people are a lot more confined with each other and always bumping into each other on the subway. Detroit, everybody drives everywhere. It is a lot more spread out. So I kind of feel like it's not that same feeling. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:40:07 Ashley. Hey, Ashley, where you from? I'm from Cincinnati. Any crazy stories? Yes. So this weekend was ridiculous. I live next to a Walmart. When I got into the cash register, there was a guy that had two full parts of milk.
Starting point is 00:40:24 Like, gallons of milk. And I'm thinking, like, dude, what are you going to do with all that milk? Like, it's going to expire in, like, three weeks. Yeah. And he looked at us crazy, and he saw people looking at him, and he ended up yelling, this is life or death! This is life or death!
Starting point is 00:40:39 I'm like, oh my God, like, it's ridiculous. But you know what, too? You got to be careful, because you don't know who he's getting stuff for. Because I thought about it, God. Like, it's ridiculous. But you know what, too? You got to be careful because you don't know who he's getting stuff for. Because I thought about it, too. Like, when I grabbed three big things of toilet paper and I grabbed three big things of water, I'm sure people looked at me crazy, but they don't know that I'm dropping one off to my mother's house and I'm dropping one off to my mother-in-law's house and that I'm keeping one. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:40:59 So you honestly don't know. You know, he might have a lot of elderly people he's actually getting it for, you know? That's true, but they've been having a big problem with people upcharging and overselling products that they're overbuying. So I don't know, but yeah, that's true too. Yeah, but you know, you can't overdo it where people can't get anything.
Starting point is 00:41:16 You gotta allow people to be able to get some of these supplies too. Thank you for calling. 800- 585-1051. We're talking your crazy grocery store stories. Call us now. It're talking your crazy grocery store stories. Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Starting point is 00:42:01 I feel you, but I don't know if we should pass that plug, man. Why not? I think we're making the block hot, because what if you live in an area, right? That's the beauty of it. You live in a certain area, you know what store to go to. Right. What if somebody that follows you from someplace else says, oh, shoot, I know where that town is,
Starting point is 00:42:16 and drives all the way from another town to come to that grocery store to buy water and toilet paper? That's what you want. No, I don't. Because your brother out there don't got no water, ain't got no toilet paper. Yo, bro, this is where I need. No, I don't. Because your brother out there don't got no water, ain't got no toilet paper. Yo, bro, this is where I need. He might need some water. Very true.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Is it a good idea to get like a filter or a britter right now? I got a filter too. We got a filter. I got a filter too. The reason I got water, because if any of that shut down, y'all gonna laugh at me, and I got to take a shower in water. Let's say they shut things down and I can't get it. At least I can take a shower with some of the water.
Starting point is 00:42:44 I can use the water to do different things. Oh, so now you shower. I thought you just used wipes. I'm dead with those. Those are crazy. I got to use the shower, though. People are so spoiled. They're like, man, there's no bottled water.
Starting point is 00:42:54 Man, y'all forgot how to boil water? Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I tell you what my dad's doing. My dad's like, boil water. And the worst of the worst, I live using new people. That's what I'm saying. Y'all forgot how to boil water, yo?

Starting point is 00:43:12 or a Meijer or whatever, you know. I wasn't looking for supplies, but I had to use the bathroom and there was a guy in there, you know, and I heard weird noises coming from the stalls,
Starting point is 00:43:23 you know. Wow. And since everyone's out of toilet there, you know, and I heard weird noises coming from the stalls, you know, and since everyone's out of toilet paper, you know, he was going to each stall while I was in there and he had like
Starting point is 00:43:32 a big jacket on and he was stealing the toilet paper from his stalls. Just taking point, you know, I ain't gonna front, when I couldn't find

Starting point is 00:43:55 I'm blessed. How are you feeling this morning? I'm well. I could be 100% better, but you know, it is what it is. Why are you trying to sound sexy early in the morning

Continue. Continue. I love all this past. Thank you so much. And we're talking crazy. Did you get groceries this weekend?
Starting point is 00:44:31 Listen, let me tell you something. I want you to put the word out there. OK, we have to do better. Wallet paper and paper towels is not the answer. And we don't need to fight. We don't need to fight. Let's keep our environment. Keep our surroundings clean. Let's keep our environment, keep our surroundings clean,
Starting point is 00:44:45 take care of our families, and let's try to be humble and loving when we're on that line because we know we're not being told the truth. So if we come together, if we come together, it will be a lot more peace, understanding, and love
Starting point is 00:44:59 that we can get through this whether they lock us down or not. All right, well, thank you. I think everybody buying toilet paper because they see everybody else buying toilet paper. I think that too. When you see everybody else
Starting point is 00:45:08 doing something at a time like this, you feel like, well, maybe I need to do it too because maybe they know something that I don't know. Yeah, that's true. It's almost like a gun. You'd rather get caught with it
Starting point is 00:45:16 than get caught without it. 800-585-1051. We're asking, how has it been out there? You looking for supplies? You going to grocery stores? You going to pharmacies, stopping shops,
Starting point is 00:45:27 Costco's, BJ's? We want to hear your crazy grocery store stories. Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. BJ, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:45:38 We're talking your crazy grocery store stories. Who's this? This is Roya. Good morning. Roya, good morning, man. How has it been out there for you? It's been crazy. I just wanted to make my weekly groceries because I don't do the big bulky things.
Starting point is 00:45:53 So I was in line for an hour at Trader Joe's. An hour. When I finally got in, the can I was on, but I didn't mind because I don't eat canned food. I started eating more fresh food. But this lady got mad and started screaming at the manager because there was no canned food left. So he's telling her that we're waiting for inventory to come in. You have to wait probably 30 minutes. So when I went around to the tissue aisle, this lady picked up the last tissue.
Starting point is 00:46:17 And this other lady clocked her because she wanted to pick up the tissue. And they just started fighting and treating the jobs and screaming at managers. And I'm like, let me just get my kale and my carrots and my celery and get out of here. I've never seen Trader Joe's like that
Starting point is 00:46:31 ever in my years of going there. And it was just fighting and screaming and it was mayhem. Like, I think people were more angry because it was online
Starting point is 00:46:38 for so long. It's just crazy. You know why it's so stupid to fight in the store? Because we already know that the hospital is going to be jammed up because of this coronavirus thing. Don't be taking up hospital beds just because you got into a fight over some kale in the goddamn store.
Starting point is 00:46:51 And now somebody done busted your head and you got to go to the hospital and get stitches. All right, think about the people that really need to be in the hospital and not you fighting over kale and canned goods. Hello, who's this? This is Chris. Chris. I'm from North Carolina. What's up, bro? We're talking your crazy grocery store stories.
Starting point is 00:47:07 Now, you're a driver, right? Yeah. I was trying to pull in the Walmart parking lot. I got palletized water on the truck because they out of water. And a lady cuts me off from the right. I'm about to run over the lady's hood of her car. Like, I'm trying to give you what you want. Did they know you had that water?
Starting point is 00:47:23 Were they trying to get it out the back of your car, your back of your truck? Man, they all over the place. I could barely even pull it. I'm blowing the horn. Like, I couldn't even get in the parking lot, bro. America not ready for this, man. We spoiled. We've been living high off the hog for way too long.
Starting point is 00:47:39 Things have been coming to Americans very, very easy. We not ready for this humbling that's about to happen, bro, bro. Hello, who's this? Hi, it's Macy. Hey, very easy. We not ready for this humbling that's about to happen, bruh, bruh. Hello, who's this? Hi, it's Macy. Hey, Macy, we're talking your crazy grocery store stories. You've been looking, you've been finding your supplies and everything you needed? Yeah, but it's been a little rough for me. Like, I have to go to the stores every day to look for stuff because everything is out.
Starting point is 00:48:02 Yeah. That's why you got to find somebody in the store that you cool with, find somebody that works there, talk to them and be like, yo, bro, when does the new shipment come in? Like, what time should I be here? What day should I be here? And they might say Monday at 7 o'clock this morning. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:48:17 But you know what I was thinking, too, and there got to be ways where we can help some people. You know, if you think about it, right, a lot of people live check to check, right? So, you know, they check to pay their mortgage and they save a little bit. So if they're paying, if people are paying a lot of their money on groceries,
Starting point is 00:48:32 you know, how many groceries can they get? Can they get enough groceries to last a couple of weeks? You know, can they take care of themselves next month? Here's the thing. What's that? Those are the best people to be around at a time like this, my brother. I saw a meme that said something to the effect of 2020 has been ghetto.
Starting point is 00:48:47 Each month has out-ghettos the last month. There's nobody that's going to survive this time better than people with a ghetto mentality. We've been making something out of nothing our whole goddamn life. Okay, my mother raised five kids in a single wide trailer, all right, making $20,000 a year. There's nobody that's going to survive this corona apocalypse better than so-called ghetto folks. It's you people. It's you Trader Joe's. It's you Whole Foods fools that's going to be the problem.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Okay? You Whole Foods fools is going to be the problem. You people out here that don't shop at Whole Foods and they do the Piggly Wigglies of the world and the Food Lions and the Bilos and they get all the generic brand stuff. Y'all done forgot where y'all came from. That's the problem. I'm good money.
Starting point is 00:49:28 That's the problem. Trust me. Ghetto folks gonna know how to survive this Corona apocalypse, baby. And you know what? In talking to my dad, I was like,
Starting point is 00:49:35 Dad, you worried? He said, for what? He said, I can boil water. That'll keep my water good. And he said, toilet paper. He said, toilet paper? What I need toilet paper for when I got newspaper?
Starting point is 00:49:43 That's right. I just wet the newspaper a little bit, paid six a be in my ass, though. But you just wipe your ass with some newspaper. That's right. Y'all talking about looking out for the less fortunate. You the less fortunate because you don't know how to survive. All right?
Starting point is 00:49:53 Folks in the ghetto been making something out of nothing and barely getting by forever. Okay? Forever. Well, one of the things also to make note of is that a lot of schools right now are still offering lunches. So just check in with that with the public schools and free meals being offered to students there. Even though the schools are closed, a lot of the schools are still offering that. That's very true. People still need food, though.
Starting point is 00:50:16 Regardless of toilet paper and that, people still need food. Once again, ghetto folks know how to... They need the supplies, though. Ghetto folks have been thriving and surviving in situations like this forever. You was poor once, Envy. Correct. So was I. We know how to do this.
Starting point is 00:50:29 You know what the greatest global pandemic in the world is? What? Poverty, nigga. You're right. All right? These so-called ghetto folks are going to be A-OK. We just got to make sure people have the food to be A-OK. You watch.
Starting point is 00:50:41 And people that are used to Whole Foods and Trader Joe's and living high off the hog like that, they're going to be the ones in trouble in a couple weeks. Trust me. All right. Well, we got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, indeed. We are going to be talking about Donald Glover. He just put out a surprise album.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Did y'all hear that Drake's album leaked too? Did anybody listen to that? I got that in my inbox. It's not a real album, though. It's a bunch of old songs. Yeah. All right, so we'll talk about Donald Glover's new album and then the ATL show that was supposed to be coming back,
Starting point is 00:51:13 but coronavirus. We'll give you that update. All right, we'll get into all that next. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. You just coughed, bro? What, I can't cough?
Starting point is 00:51:22 No. Man, shut up, man. Don't be stupid, okay? It's allergy season. All right? There's things out here that's not the coronavirus. It's colds. It's flu.
Starting point is 00:51:30 It's regular allergies. It's stuff being caught in my throat. Okay? Where's the Lysol, man? Spray this room down. He's just coughing and stuff. You know I was in the club all weekend in Orlando, partying it up. Ain't no telling who you've been in contact with.

Starting point is 00:52:04 Well, congratulations to Charmaine from Black Ink Chicago. She had her baby, her and Nick Bay. They were expecting a little girl. So they did have the baby, Nola Glenda. If you watch that show, you know her mother passed away back in October. And so, of course, her mom was ecstatic to become a grandmother. So she did share a picture of Nola looking just like her late mother. So congratulations to them for having a healthy baby.
Starting point is 00:52:31 All right. Now, Donald Glover just put out a surprise album. And some of the guests on there are Ariana Grande, 21 Savage, SZA. It's called Donald Glover Presents. And I believe it was on DonaldGloverPresents.com where you could actually get the album. So here is a snippet of Time featuring Chance the Rapper and Ariana. All right. And here's another snippet of a song called Vibrate. Just Donald Glover on this one. I got to hear it in its entirety,
Starting point is 00:54:00 but you sound like you were doing a terrible Anderson.Paak imitation in the beginning. All right. Now, for all of you Donald Glover fans and fans of Atlanta, they have put season three on hold. They were actually in production and now that has been postponed. Because of the coronavirus? Yes. As you know, are being postponed programs like The Amazing Race, American Ninja
Starting point is 00:54:20 Warrior, The Bachelorette, scripted series like The Flash, Grey's Anatomy, Stranger Things, Riverdale, even 50 Cent, Spinoffs of Power. All of those things have been suspended. Yeah, been shut down for a little bit. Yeah, just for a little bit. All right. Now, shout out to Lil Uzi Vert.
Starting point is 00:54:34 His album, Eternal Atake, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, 288,000 equivalent album units. And as you know, on Friday, he dropped a deluxe version of that with 14 new songs. So shout out to Lil Uzi for really putting up those numbers. Now, people were upset about Waka Flaka talking about the Flip the Switch Challenge. Now, he posted, this Flip the Switch Challenge is making me realize a lot. Never will I act or dress like a female. Not for promo, not for comedy, and damn sure not for an effing challenge.
Starting point is 00:55:02 Where's the Be a Real Man Challenge? It's like being feminine a wave. Please stay woke, Waka Flaka. So Tammy weighed in on that, and she just told him let people have some fun. I guess she had issues with what he said. She said, Waka, no one cares. Let people enjoy themselves.
Starting point is 00:55:20 Damn. But she did say they just have a difference of opinion on that particular topic. All right, I like the flip the switch challenge. I think a difference of opinion on that particular topic. Alright, I like the Flip the Switch challenge. I think a lot of them have been really creative. I thought it was pretty funny. Usher did one that was pretty funny. Yeah, I saw him with his kids. Yeah, with his kids. Yeah, a couple of them have been really funny. I'm not
Starting point is 00:55:36 mad at it. People have fun. Yeah, they're just having a good time. Sheesh. Alright, I'm Angela Yee and that is your Rumor Report. Alright, thank you Miss Yee. Charlamagne. Yes. Who you giving that donkey to? I need to talk to everybody who was in the clubs this weekend. God wants me to deliver a message to you. All right.
Starting point is 00:55:51 I think God's tired of you. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. This don't be a donkey, because right now you want some real donkey shit. It's time for Donkey of the Day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit me with the heel.
Starting point is 00:56:06 Did she get donkey in the name, please, Debbie? Absolutely. I have become Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Let's talk, guys. I'm not here to chastise you. I just want to have a conversation. Okay, Donkey of the Day for Monday, March 16th goes to all you fools who was in the club this weekend.
Starting point is 00:56:22 Partying your ass off. That's right. Lights, cameras, action. Okay? Envy, I'm talking toying your ass off. That's right. Lights, cameras, action. Okay? Envy, I'm talking to you. Talk to me. Alright. Where was you at this weekend, Envy? I was at the Beecham in Orlando. How many people? I'd say about 1,500.
Starting point is 00:56:36 Just a coughing on each other. I wasn't in the crowd, though. Please. I walked in the back door, went out the back door. Pause, pause. My brother. I'm dropping a cruise bond for my brother. My brother, my brother, my brother. My back door brother. I pause. My brother. Drop on the cruise bar for my brother. My brother. My brother. My brother. My back door brother. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:56:48 I set myself up for that one. Now, what part of social distancing don't y'all understand? I get that people believe in conspiracy theories. I get that people don't believe the government is telling us everything. But what I don't get is people just throwing caution to the wind and being in the club all weekend on top of each other, coughing on each other, sneezing on each other, passing blunts to each other. I've been watching people take chances with their health
Starting point is 00:57:08 on Instagram all weekend. Some of y'all partying like hookah is the cure for the coronavirus. What's the problem? Are y'all just on some YOLO? If we're going to die anyway, we might as well die happy. Is that really how you want to go out? Huh? Catching corona from a day party?
Starting point is 00:57:23 Can you imagine yourself in the afterlife trying to explain how you got here imagine being in heaven and nipsey saying to you so cuz you telling me there was a global pandemic a disease spreading to everyone a disease that was making people sick and killing folks and all you had to do was stay away from each other stay in the house and kick it but you said effing and went to the club and then you caught this coronavirus and it hit you harder than you thought it would and now you up here with me damn cuz you should have stayed at home it's really just that simple imagine pock overhearing the conversation between you and nipsey and walking over saying so what happened now you was in the club and drinking corona and died damn corona's
Starting point is 00:57:57 killing people down there now the moral of the story is it's not worth it why do we think we are so exempt from things happening around us okay i believe in god but we have to take care of ourselves it's precautions for a reason now when the government does a national shutdown don't y'all go screaming martial law because clearly y'all don't have the discipline to self-quarantine yourselves and follow directions so they're gonna have to do it for you now what's going what's gonna have to happen is the government is gonna have to make the clubs designated quarantine stations. That's the only way this quarantine thing is going
Starting point is 00:58:28 to work. Put these folks where they clearly want to be anyway, while the rest of us stay at home and mind our business in quarantine. Let the club-going corona carriers cough on themselves in nightclubs all across the country. Okay, Envio DJ. Envio be there getting that money. If they're offering a check, don't you think for one second Envio won't be in
Starting point is 00:58:43 these quarantine parties getting that bread? Nah, shut down, bro. Shut down for the next 60 days. All I'm saying is you have to know when God is telling you to be still. Okay, we are in a forced slowdown right now. All right, why are you not taking heed? It's really just that simple. Okay, this is the time to meditate and focus and just prepare for what's to come.
Starting point is 00:59:05 Remember when little John asked the question, turn down for what? Well, now is the time to answer that question. And the answer is simple. So you don't go around spreading the goddamn coronavirus. Okay, God gets tired of our excuses. He gets tired of us complaining about things, especially when we could have done things to prevent it. All right, don't make him get your attention in a harsh way. Matter of fact, don't listen to me.
Starting point is 00:59:27 Listen to the wise words of Bishop T.D. Jakes. I was watching this sermon yesterday, man. Let me hear what Bishop T.D. Jakes had to say. I want to share this with y'all. When God gets tired of your excuses, when God gets tired of you playing games, when God gets tired of you ignoring him? When God gets tired, are you being merciful? When God gets tired, are you shaking your fist
Starting point is 00:59:50 in his face and telling him you don't need him? When God gets tired, are you cursing in the high places and cursing the people of God? When God gets tired of our leaders fighting like they're in the ballroom, bro, when God, when God gets tired,
Starting point is 01:00:08 God has a way of sending something to get your attention. God has a way of making you stop playing church and playing games and playing like you're leaders and playing like you care about people. God has a way of bringing you down to your knees. For all you club goers, stop playing with your health and stop playing with God. Please give all of these brothers and sisters who couldn't stay at the club this weekend, even though it's a goddamn global pandemic going around, the biggest hee-haw.
Starting point is 01:00:43 And if you're going to be in the club djs please while you're providing the soundtrack every now and then just remind people of what we're of what we're experiencing in this world it's a lot of little jams that you can play starting with this one guess what coronavirus I don't like the edited version. The edited version sounds sick. Well, you stupid. You stupid. Well, thank you for that donkey today.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Yes. And shout out to everybody out in Orlando. I had a great time at the beach in there. I was actually handing out hand sanitizers to everybody. So they had a great time. Yeah, you better worry about what somebody gave you. Yeah. What?
Starting point is 01:01:42 I was going to say, I walked in the back door, and I walked out the back door. Oh. And I had a hand sanitizer. You definitely caught something there. Shut up, man. All right. We have fun at the beach.
Starting point is 01:01:53 But you guys be safe. On a real note, stay out. Now it's time, man. Oh, now it's time. After you done got your check this weekend, now it's time for everybody to stay home. No, I canceled a lot of my checks. I canceled a lot of things that I was doing just to make sure that people wouldn't come out. But up next, Ice Cube will be joining us.
Starting point is 01:02:08 We'll kick it with Ice Cube. We're going to be talking about his big three. All jokes aside, though, now's the time for you $150 DJs to shine. All right? Because a lot of the DJs are going to be staying home. A lot of the DJs that charge the big bucks are going to be staying home. Now's the time for you $150 DJs to shine. Take advantage.
Starting point is 01:02:24 No, stay your ass home, man. Stay your ass home. Nothing's even open, too. If you have gatherings of 50 people or more, you can't even be open. In certain areas. I think they're trying to make it nationwide. I hope so, because I still got a lot of calls. I'm like, are you real?
Starting point is 01:02:38 Are you serious? No, I'm staying my ass home. And happy birthday again to Cash Doll. She had a birthday party over the weekend out here in Detroit. You went? I did stop by. I'm a birthday party over the weekend out here in Detroit. You what? I did stop by. Oh, no. I'm glad both of y'all not here today.
Starting point is 01:02:50 My goodness. All right. Ice Cube, when we come back, is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:03:04 We got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed. Ice Cube. Yeah. What's up with y'all? What's going on? It's Cube. Are you worried about the coronavirus in any way, shape, or form?
Starting point is 01:03:12 No, I mean, you know, I am a maid. I'm a maid right now. I'm wiping everything down. Okay. You know what I mean? You came in and just said, how's it kicking? Yeah, I know how I feel about y'all. I know how I feel about y'all.
Starting point is 01:03:21 Don't touch me. I don't know whether to trip or not, because we see stuff like this all the time, whether it's Ebola or Zika or SARS or swine flu, bird flu. I don't know why this one feels so different. I don't know either. I just think you got social media more in tune with everything and everybody's panicking in a way. And it's cool.
Starting point is 01:03:44 I guess you're supposed to at this point. You know, you're supposed to try to contain it. But I understand what people are saying with the large gatherings. Shut down the NBA season. Now you can't watch your Lakers lose to the Clippers. What are you talking about, man? My Lakers just drug the Clippers, man. Mopped them.
Starting point is 01:04:02 It was easy money. I'm talking about the playoffs, though. They're probably back for the playoffs. The playoffs is going to be easier. Wow. Man, the Clippers can man. Mopped them. It was easy money. I'm talking about the playoffs, though. They're probably back for the playoffs. The playoffs is going to be easier. Wow. Man, the Clippers can't beat the Lakers four times in two weeks. You don't think so? No.
Starting point is 01:04:12 Now, what about the big three? How is the big three affecting? Yeah, big three. You know, we still doing our thing. When's the first game? We got a contingency plan, though. You know what I mean? We're going to Memphis.
Starting point is 01:04:21 We plan to come to New York. You know what I mean? When does it start? June 20th. It's still starting June 20th. But we've decided to have six of our games in Los Angeles. Okay. In a nice, contained...
Starting point is 01:04:36 Quarantined area. No, not quarantined. Not an arena. But yeah, it's not an arena. We're going to make it dope, though. I'm kind of excited to see the set production that we put together for these games that's going to be more contained. And we had to come up with this plan because we can't wait until the last minute.
Starting point is 01:04:54 We don't own arenas. You know what I mean? And we was proactive. We've been thinking about this for a couple of weeks. And we pulled the trigger to say you know four games will be played on the road but six games are going to be played contained environment right there in los angeles hopefully we won't have to do all 10 but we still plan to go to memphis because those games on sale now still coming to new york and our playoffs is in portland weall have fans in this? You know, we hope in Los Angeles we're going to have, you know,
Starting point is 01:05:27 maybe, you know, a thousand fans. On the road, we hope that it blows over. We hope we can have full arenas. And, you know, we hope in a couple months everybody's like, okay, we all good. And, you know, so we got the best of both worlds. We got, you know, some of our games, you know, in cities, some of our games right there in Los Angeles.
Starting point is 01:05:49 What did you think about the All-Star game this year and the new way that they played? Yeah, you saw them. They stole your s**t? Come on now. The big four men stole your s**t, baby. Did they send the invoice? No, they didn't send no damn invoice.
Starting point is 01:06:00 What do you think they stole from you? Just the whole concept of, you know, a time clock is stupid. Whoever get there first win the game. There's no garbage minutes because there's no minutes. So they say something
Starting point is 01:06:14 about the Elam rule, but man, nobody was pulling that out until the big three started doing our thing. So it's cool. You know, we said we was changing
Starting point is 01:06:23 the game in 2017 and look what we done did. Did anybody reply to your tweet? Anybody from the NBA? Nah, they ain't going to say nothing. You know what I mean? You know, biters, they bite and just keep going. They don't never say thank you. As soon as I saw it, I knew that was a big three.
Starting point is 01:06:38 I said, that's what a big three does. Man, you on top of it, man. That's what makes you Charlemagne the guy. I appreciate that. Last time you came here, we talked about Kobe possibly playing in the Big 3. Yeah. Was that ever a conversation? Because you said you couldn't tell us at that time.
Starting point is 01:06:51 Hell yeah, it was a conversation. I stalked that man. Every day, you know, I would call him. Kobe, what's up, man? You playing? He's like, Q, I'm done. You mean done, done? Yeah, done, done.
Starting point is 01:07:03 You mean done, done, done. Done, done, done, Q. I'm done, done, done. Done, done, done, Q. I'm like, all right, I'll call you tomorrow. So I was stalking that dude, man, to play. You know, he was the biggest fish we could catch. And he was actually done. He didn't want to play no more. And that's cool.
Starting point is 01:07:20 You know, we want guys that's ready to go. We don't just want your name. We want your game. So, you know, I want guys that's ready to go. We don't just want your name. We want your game. So, you know, I didn't really want him to play if he wasn't going to try to kill everybody out there on that court. What do you even offer somebody like Kobe to play? The same thing we offer everybody else. You know what I mean? It's like that's the whole spirit of the league.
Starting point is 01:07:38 Everybody gets paid the same. And it's all about the game. And, you know, your revenue share as you know you place you know you place first you get first place money you place last you get last place money so you know that concept you know has sustained us and you know we hope it'll be the concept of the future as we're getting ready for this new season of the big, are any of the rules different since the game started? What's new this season? We don't want down to 22.
Starting point is 01:08:09 We was at 30 at first. 27 last year. Now we done dropped down. You can be as young as 22 and still playing the Big 3. Because we wanted to drop that stigma of being a retirement league. We're not a retirement league. We're a league.
Starting point is 01:08:26 We've actually said we're not playing professional three-on-three no more. We're playing fireball three because we want to be able to change the rules and make the game unique and our own. So we got a rule called the bring the fire rule. NBA going to steal it next year. Yep. Bring the fire rule is like dudes is balling, fire was called. But you don't want dude to go to the line.
Starting point is 01:08:49 It was a legitimate fire, but you don't want him to go to the line. You say, I want to bring the fire. And then those players go one-on-one for the points. Oh, that's hard. That happens. Yeah, one time a game. I mean, one time a half per team. So you might see it four times a game. I mean, one time a half per team. So you might see it four times a game.
Starting point is 01:09:06 I'm expecting it to be used like at that last point game when that crazy little ticky-tack foul was called. And they're like, nah, no foul. You ain't going to the line. Bring the fire. So I expect it to just be an exciting, like a penalty shot in hockey, just that moment that people wait for. Who's playing this year?
Starting point is 01:09:29 Everybody came back. You know, some guys moved on, like Mike Bibby. He's not playing. He's going to be a coach for the Aliens. Steven Jackson is now the coach for Trilogy. But, you know, we've added, you know, Zach Randolph to the mix. We still out there. We got our, you know, fishing poles out there for a few people.
Starting point is 01:09:50 So I think we're going to be able to make some announcements this week. I don't want to give it up right now because we have splash alerts. That's pretty cool. We, you know, let people know who's joining the league. So you're working on a new movie? Yeah, yeah. Well, we finished it. It's coming out May 8th.
Starting point is 01:10:05 It's called The High Note. Tracee Ellis Ross, Dakota Johnson. It's really about Dakota Johnson. She plays an assistant to a diva-ass singer. That's Tracee Ellis Ross. I play Tracee's manager. It's just a cool movie about the industry And what the hell it is to be an assistant And she's actually an undercover producer
Starting point is 01:10:28 So she's sneaking in Remixing her songs She gotta let her know It's a great movie I heard Tracy was talking about that I listened to her Oprah Super Soul conversation And she said she recorded music
Starting point is 01:10:41 Yeah she can sing She said it's her first time singing She always felt intimidated to do that by singing publicly in a movie man she can like i wanted to hear the music before i decided to do the movie because i'm like wait a minute she's singing she could sing i know her mama's diana ross but let's see and man when i when i heard that music i'm like oh i'm in right, we got more with Ice Cube. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:11:07 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Ice Cube. Charlamagne? We had Angela Bassett on, and it made me think about your first role in Boys in the Hood. Yes.
Starting point is 01:11:21 What kind of game did OGs like that give you back then? Just to be serious, you know what I mean? To focus on the role. It was my first movie, so I was watching everybody, you know, like Angela Bassett and Lawrence Fishburne and, you know, these actors who were seasoned. You know, I'm trying to figure out what not to do. You know, when you don't know what to do,
Starting point is 01:11:43 sometimes finding out what not to do. You know, when you don't know what to do, sometimes finding out what not to do, it gets you halfway there. So that's what I was watching, you know, and I just saw her focus and, you know, whatever they gave her, she mastered it and absorbed the role and commanded the screen. Why do you think this era of black cinema doesn't have the same feel as the 90s era?
Starting point is 01:12:08 We had Nia Longa up here, and she said it's because of the way they film it. It's lighting and stuff. And I was like, no, I don't know if it's that. I just think the movie industry lost a little luster. It went from this thing where people really focused on each film to now it's like a fast food, you know, assembly line
Starting point is 01:12:27 kind of feel to the whole industry. You know, premieres don't have the same feel. Nothing does. You know, everything seems like fast food, put it that way. That's the only thing I can equate it to. You sure you're not jaded because you done did it a million times, though?
Starting point is 01:12:41 I ain't jaded. I mean, I got a lot of love in the movie industry. You got the Clarissa Shields biopic yes i'm that's why that's gonna be exciting like this uh i'm playing a trainer by the name of jason crutchfield clarissa shields if you don't know who she is she's two-time gold medalist in boxing uh was the first female to win a gold medal in boxing at the age of 17. And she just now starting to really become known because she done got into it with Leila Ali. Yeah, she's been up here.
Starting point is 01:13:12 She's been up here. Yeah, you know, she's very... She's representing Flint, Michigan. Is it too early for Clarissa to have a biopic? Man, she won two gold medals. You know what I mean? That's the story. You know, it's not the story of her professional boxing career.
Starting point is 01:13:25 It's the story of her fighting, becoming a fighter, growing up and being a female. And the trainer didn't even want to train her because at the time, wasn't too many female boxers doing it. So all those things, her household, just the thing she had to overcome to not only win it once, but to win it twice is very movie worthy. You said your face is cut up? Well, you know, I don't usually cut mine. Oh, you meant cut like you did? I thought you meant you got cut training.
Starting point is 01:13:57 No, no, no. You really got into it. No, they better not hit me. When does the story end? Because, of course, she's still going on and on and on. It ends with her. You got to watch the movie, huh? Yeah, of course, she's still going on and on and on. It ends with her... You gotta watch the movie, huh? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:09 I was about to tell you the ending. You gotta watch it. You gotta check it out, man. If Leila Ali trains for a year, she gets in there with Clarissa. Who you got? Clarissa. I mean, you just can't lay away from boxing for a super long time and come back and, I think, be able to beat a champion who's been doing it every day.
Starting point is 01:14:30 George Foreman says otherwise. Yeah, and Laila Ali may say otherwise. We will never know until they get in the ring. But I just got to put my odds on the fighter who's stayed in training, that's ready to go, that's sharp. That's all the more reason for Layla to come back. Ice Cube thinks you're going to lose, Layla. Okay?
Starting point is 01:14:49 Yeah, I think you're going to lose. But that's cool. You know what I mean? I mean, both fighters can't win. Somebody got to lose. I'm just gassing it up because I want to see it. I think that's one of those. But don't be trying to get me in the mix with Layla Ali.
Starting point is 01:15:02 Somebody want to come put them ones and twos on me. You know what I mean? I'm like, hey. I'm a lover, not a fighter. You getting back into music? I stay in music. I never leave. You know, I got albums out.
Starting point is 01:15:14 I'm touring. I got tour dates coming. I never stop. I mean, you did impeach the president, and they did impeach the president. Yeah, I mean, I said arrest him. They still haven't got to arrest the president. That's what I want to do. He get out of that White House, he definitely going to be in handcuffs.
Starting point is 01:15:29 Man, I can't wait to see that, man. You know, like that wine stain in them handcuffs, man. That's a beautiful day. You know what I mean? Beautiful day. You worked with him before, right, Harvey? Yeah, I worked with him. I just think about all the actresses
Starting point is 01:15:43 that this dude done ran out the industry. You know what I mean? It's terrible. That karma come around and do his thing sometimes. Would that change the culture of Hollywood, you think? Nope. Wow. You know, it's men and women.
Starting point is 01:15:55 It's men and women. You can't change that culture. It's always going to be that element. And power is what makes it ugly. What happened to Celebrity Deathmatch? It's coming. We're still doing it. You know, animation takes a long time for people to agree to do it.
Starting point is 01:16:11 Gotcha, gotcha. You know, but we, you know, we done made some progress, and we'll have some news on that soon. You know, I was going to ask you, but I forgot about this. Remember when you were trying to buy them 21 TV stations? Yeah. And Charter was blocking? Whatever happened with that?
Starting point is 01:16:26 Well, Charter actually, my man Al Sharpton, I got to give it to him. He helped us get Charter to change their mind on certain things. So they actually made us an offer. That was basically our outlet. And so we needed those deals to, once we buy these, what was called sports networks, we need to make sure they was on these cable platforms to be able to continue to provide them to the people. So when people tell you,
Starting point is 01:17:03 well, we ain't never going to do a deal with you, you know, like we can't go for that. You know, you had a deal with the last people that owned it. Why are you not going to do a deal with us? So, you know, we wasn't going for that, and they knew it, and they did the right thing, so that's cool. Wasn't you and Byron Allen bidding for it? Yeah, well, he was with another group.
Starting point is 01:17:21 You know, actually, his group, he was with Sinclair, who actually ended up buying it. Well, he was with another group. You know, actually, his group, he was with Sinclair. Okay, okay. Who actually ended up buying it. And, you know, we had our group, and we was about 11 hours late. Wow. Yeah, yeah. It's hard to pull all that money together. Byron should have been with y'all, though.
Starting point is 01:17:37 Yeah, he should have. Because y'all black. Yeah, we are. You know what I mean? So he should have been with us. But, you know, he had his own business deals. We got our own, you know, it's business. It ain't got no color when it comes to that, really.
Starting point is 01:17:51 Especially when you're talking about $10 billion and trying to piece it together. You know, and it was basically billionaires don't like to work with each other sometimes. It's like, man, I don't like that guy. I don't want to put my money in with him. So, you know, it ain't that many billionaires that you can just kind of gather around. So when you get some, and you're like, yo, we got this. Let's do it.
Starting point is 01:18:12 And one of them like, man, I don't know. He's like, so you had the money. Now, one dude, he fall out. You got to get another dude to replace him. And it just took us a minute. We was 11 hours late. All right. Well, Ice Cube, we appreciate you for joining us. Give them the dates of the big three again.
Starting point is 01:18:27 June 20th to August 29th. All our games are going to be on CBS. Well, not all the games, but most of the games are going to be on CBS. As far as we're going to be there every week, but we play six games a day. So some of them are going to be on CBS. Others are going to be on other platforms, but we're going to have fun this year. Isn't it a blessing to see what the Big
Starting point is 01:18:50 Three has grown into from when you first came here to now and just see the progress every single year? It is, you know. If we knew how hard it was going to be, we might have said, yo, you know what? Let's just make another movie. But it's great to get it to this point.
Starting point is 01:19:06 Thank you guys for always supporting it. Y'all supported it. Before y'all even knew it was going to be good, y'all said y'all would come down and be a part of it. So y'all was there at our first game. So it's amazing, man, to come back here and be in year four and be able to share it with y'all. And hopefully y'all still cheer us on and we can stay here and keep it coming.
Starting point is 01:19:29 Has anybody made an offer on the Big 3 yet? We've had a few offers, you know what I mean? But to me, you don't sell something like the Big 3. You pass that on to the grandkids. All right. Well, it's Ice Cube. Yay, yay. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:19:42 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's send somebody a happy birthday. She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:20:09 Yes, happy birthday to Simone Biles. She actually turned 23 years old on Saturday. And on Instagram, the USA Gymnastics actually tweeted her out. Happy birthday to the most decorated gymnast of all time, Simone Biles. We know you will only continue to amaze us and make history. Well, Simone Biles did not just say thank you. She actually responded, how about you amaze me and do the right thing, have an independent investigation.
Starting point is 01:20:34 Of course, she is talking about the athletes who sued over sexual abuse from Dr. Larry Nassar, the sports doctor who abused all those young girls. So that was her response, and a lot of people liked and retweeted that as well. All right. And the big three basketball has done a racially charged ad against Madison Square Garden head, James Dolan. Now the ad is promoting a June 27th outdoor festival at Flushing Meadows Park in New York.
Starting point is 01:20:59 And it has quotes from Charles Oakley. It's a plantation over there. And Spike Lee, if you want to arrest me like Oakley, go ahead. Implying that, of course, Dolan treats his employees and fans like criminals,
Starting point is 01:21:10 basically. And then they said there was a message to quote players on our property. The fans are our guests. Who do you think New York hates more right now? James Dolan or coronavirus?
Starting point is 01:21:19 Think about this. James Dolan. James Dolan, right? Yep, yep, yep, yep. Knicks fans would rather get rid of James Dolan now than coronavirus. I'm telling you. Knicks fans would rather get rid of James Dolan now than coronavirus. I'm telling you.
Starting point is 01:21:26 Knicks fans right now would deal with a little coronavirus, but they're not dealing with James Dolan no more. All right. Now Post Malone is facing some backlash because of his Denver show. Even though of the fears of coronavirus, he still performed Thursday night in front of a sold-out crowd at Pepsi Center. And people are saying this whole social distancing thing, let's not be in these venues.
Starting point is 01:21:47 But, you know, people feel like he should not have done that, that it was irresponsible and selfish of him. Well, no. If people can be in the club this weekend partying, having a good time, I can't be mad at Post Malone. I think it's all stupid. I think everybody should be social distancing. But the clubs were open this weekend.
Starting point is 01:22:03 Disney World was open this weekend. Was it? Yes. They closed today, Monday. Oh. this weekend. Disney World was open this weekend. Not was it? Yes. They closed today, Monday. Oh. I don't think nobody was there though. Nah, I don't think nobody was there too. Nah, you can't be mad. The malls are open. You can't be mad at him. Alright, now Coco Austin, Ice-T's wife, has shared a picture of her breastfeeding her four-year-old daughter
Starting point is 01:22:18 and she posted at a time when the world feels like it's coming to an end suck up as much love as you can. So a lot of people were talking about that, saying that they feel like Chanel was too old to be nursing. Coco said, I know the moms out there will appreciate this pic. I've been getting a lot of props in the breastfeeding community and get tons of emails from women moms appreciating me,
Starting point is 01:22:37 bringing light to the subject. At this point in nursing, it's just for comfort. And believe me, the girl loves meat, so it's not like she isn't eating real food. Thank you to all that understand my view. believe me, the girl loves meat so it's not like she isn't eating real food. Thank you to all that understand my view. I mean, I'm not mad at it and not only that,
Starting point is 01:22:49 it's a way to save a lot of money. If I could breastfeed my kids right now and save a lot of money, I definitely would. Please don't you breastfeed Envy.
Starting point is 01:22:55 Yeah, I don't think it was that. I think it's the fact that her son is four. That's what it is. Son is four years old. I mean, I wouldn't do it. Of course, my wife
Starting point is 01:23:03 wouldn't do it. But, you know, it's up to them. I mean... I agree, but I'm just saying, that's what people were wondering. People were like, why is your daughter still full of breastfeeding? But my thing is...
Starting point is 01:23:12 Whose business is it? As I said, mine, your goddamn business. Your kid is healthy. Whose business is it? I guess people feel like she posted it so it makes it people's business because she posted it. Some people just felt like
Starting point is 01:23:21 some things should be private. Yeah, and you can't tell people to suck up the love when you breastfeeding because you're not sharing that love with everybody else. That's just for your four-year-old. You understand what I'm saying? That's one of the things, too. But I will say this.
Starting point is 01:23:32 What? We chastising her and saying, why would she let her four-year-old drink her breast milk? I wonder why we're not still drinking breast milk. Why are we the only species that drink the milk from other animals? You ever thought about that? Well, yeah, I can't drink milk from animals, so lactose intolerance, it's not happening. That's probably why, though, because if we drink from each other,
Starting point is 01:23:53 if we drank human breast milk as we got older, we probably wouldn't be lactose intolerant. All right, now let's talk about Sarah J. Porn star Sarah J. was trending, and that is all because over the weekend, I guess people realized that Barack Obama was following her. So somehow she started trending on social media, and that is the sole only reason why. Barack Obama was following who? Sarah J. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 01:24:16 Now, y'all know goddamn well Barack Obama don't work his own social media. Now, stop. And whoever works his social media should be fired immediately. Absolutely. You know who my wife is, boy? You following goddamn porn stars. I don't even want to go home to that mess. What? I gotta go home. Who you following? Baby, I don't run my social media.
Starting point is 01:24:35 Well, why can't he follow Sarah J on Twitter? She's a porn star. So? She's a person. She's a citizen of the United States. If your boyfriend was following porn, first of all, he's the former president of the United States of America. The former president of the United States If your boyfriend Was following porn First of all He's the former president Of the United States of America The former president Of the United States of America
Starting point is 01:24:48 Cannot follow a porn star I'm sure he follows A lot of people Unless of course Donald Trump has lowered The bar so much That we don't care About stuff like that anymore
Starting point is 01:24:55 I'm sure my boyfriend Does follow a porn star Your boyfriend Is not the president The former president Of the United States of America Angelique You just asked me
Starting point is 01:25:03 Would you be upset If your boyfriend Was following porn stars And that was a stupid Question for me to ask Because your boyfriend is not the president. You said it. The president, Barack Obama, cannot follow a porn star. I mean, he can, but he's going to get a lot of scrutiny for it.
Starting point is 01:25:12 And Michelle is going to be on his ass. I don't think that's a smart thing to do. I mean, it's not like he was in her DMs. We don't know that. That's the point of it. When you see somebody following, you think, is he DMing this person? We don't know. It can be a deeper rabbit hole.
Starting point is 01:25:25 All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Ms. Yee. All right. Well, up next is the People's Choice Mix. We'll see you guys. No, I was going to say Revolt, but Revolt's not even here, huh?
