The Breakfast Club, bitches. Donkey of the Day with Charlamagne Tha God. I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this. Well, Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, September 6th goes to Amy Harrington of Madera Beach, Florida.
Starting point is 00:03:19 What does your uncle, Charla, always tell you about the great state of Florida? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. And today is once again, no exception. I think you know that I have zero tolerance for drunk drivers. I believe drunk drivers should be pointed to the fullest extent of the law, because as I've told you several times on this radio, every day of our life, we are simply trying to avoid crazy. And if you are a human who gets in
Starting point is 00:03:45 their car and does all the right things puts your seat belt on drives the speed limit really looks out for other folks on the road i appreciate you and people like that okay should not have to deal with the dangers of a crazy ass drunk driver now it's bad enough that people are still you know driving drunk in 2022 i mean because it's absolutely positively no reason to be getting behind the wheel all right when you're drunk nowadays it's way too many ride share services to be doing that so once again i have zero remorse for drunk drivers okay there's not one logical reason someone can give me for driving drunk other than you were drunk right that's the only reason people get behind the wheel and they're not supposed to because the liquor makes them think they can't and amy is the latest human to say eff it all right
Starting point is 00:04:30 throw caution to the wind and get behind the wheel when she's drunk now i encourage you when scrolling through social media today or if you are online at any point today go watch this video of amy harrington's traffic stops the amy got pulled over and had to do some field sobriety tests i'm a person that feels that feels like field sobriety test bias okay because you can fail this variety test by simply being out of shape i mean come on the one leg stand test i'm 44 and constantly mentally and physically exhausted now you want me to stand on one leg on command even if i'm not drunk, I might fail that one. Okay, the walk and turn test
Starting point is 00:05:07 where you got to take nine steps heel to toe, I can't do that either because I lack coordination, rhythm, and I don't follow dance instructions well. So I would fail that test. Also, when I say I don't have rhythm, I lack rhythm, but I'm totally on beat when it comes to the instrumental playing in my head.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Okay, but what's playing in my head usually isn't what's playing out loud. So to everyone else, I look off beat. But to me, the moral of the story is those tests aren't easy to do sober. So they must be impossible to do drunk. And I guess that's why Amy Harrington decided to do her own thing when asked to do one. Let's go to Inside Edition for the report, please. If this driver thought her graceful moves were going to get her out of a traffic stop, she was sorely mistaken. The Pinellas County Sheriff's Office in Florida recently released
Starting point is 00:05:54 this video of a field sobriety test conducted back in April. According to a criminal complaint, deputies say 38-year-old Amy Harrington rear-ended another vehicle, and when they approached her, she had visual signs of impairment, including glassy eyes. It also stated deputies smelled alcohol on her breath. She allegedly refused a breathalyzer, and when trying to administer a field sobriety test, deputies report she was unsteady on her feet and started to perform ballet and Irish folk dances. Harrington's moves weren't impressive to deputies who arrested her. She's pleaded not guilty to driving under the influence, refusal to submit to testing, and possessing an open container of alcohol.
Starting point is 00:06:37 Now, I don't know what Irish folk dancing is, but it looks ridiculous, okay? And when you combine that with ballet and being drunk, it looks extra ridiculous. In her defense, she said the police officers sounded like her ballet dancer. Didn't I tell you that a walk and turn test sounds like dance instruction? Soon as you tell a drunk person heel to toe, they're going to say, did he say heel toe? You start giving a drunk person all those steps and they start dancing. That's your fault for sounding like DJ Casper. Well, in this case, Amy said the officer did sound like her ballet coach. So that's why she for sounding like dj casper well in this case amy said the officer did sound like her ballet coach so that's why she started doing a little jig the officer even had
Starting point is 00:07:09 the nerve to tell her she wasn't good which made her go harder because she had to prove that i indeed can dance now ultimately she did refuse the breathalyzer but the officer didn't need it by then right the moral of the story is don't drink drink and drive. In this case, please don't drink, drive, and dance. Please give Amy Harrington the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Now, she gave it the good old college try. Key of the day. Yee-haw. Yee-haw.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Now, she gave it the good old college try. But that's the problem. She's 38 years old. You can't be acting like you're in college no more, man. All right? I wouldn't say let's play a game, but I know what it is already. Bro, I said Irish folk dancing. All right?
Starting point is 00:08:01 Black people don't know how to Irish folk dance? I have a little bit of Irish in me. Me too. No. I don't think we know how to folk dance. I don't even know what the hell that is.
Starting point is 00:08:09 You know what Irish folk dancing is? Yeah. What is it? Show me. I'm not showing you. Show me. No, you started
Starting point is 00:08:16 to stand up. Show me. Bro, that's salsa, bro. How you know that's not salsa? That's not salsa. That wasn't no damn Irish folk dance. That's when your heels hit your ass and you kick it out.
Starting point is 00:08:29 Huh? That's called a butt kick when you're working out. No, it's not, man. I don't know what you just did, but you need to start. This is cultural appropriation. Well, no, you're Dominican. That's salsa. Okay.
Starting point is 00:08:40 Do the Irish folk dance again. I ain't never seen a yellow leprechaun, bro. Ever in my life. Okay, well, McKelvie and Rash? Look, you got to... I ain't never seen a yellow leprechaun, bro. Ever in my life. Okay, well, McKelvey and Rashawn Casey, you guys, should know how to do this. I do not. I've never seen a yellow leprechaun, bro. Ever.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Jesus Christ. Thank you for that donkey today. Yes. All right, now, we were just talking about $1,500. That's what you would pay if you want to see Megan Thee Stallion backstage. $1,000 for Chris Brown. And Bow Wow said he'd give him a stack, too, and you could take a picture with him for his VIP experience.
Starting point is 00:09:12 So we're asking. VIP experience. VIP. 800-585-1051. We're asking, who would you pay for a VIP experience? What would you pay, I should say? No, who? Who would you pay for a vip experience what would you pay i should say not what no who who would you pay that and what yeah yeah fifteen hundred dollars you gotta put his price on it yeah fifteen hundred dollars for a vip experience who would you pay to see
Starting point is 00:09:35 anybody here in the room huh no let me think we don't count because we do this we do this for a living bro you put mob deep in the back of your head as a kid, so I'm sure you would have paid $1,500. God bless the dead. Does it have to be somebody alive that we would pay? Or who would we have paid? Like who? I don't think this question is for us.
Starting point is 00:09:57 I would have paid $1,500 for me and Greenwood Prince. Met him for free up here. Yeah, but it would be different. I would do it. I would hold on to that memory forever. Who else would I like to meet? You didn't get no picture, though. He almost did.
Starting point is 00:10:10 And you get a picture with these people. I did take a picture, but it disappeared. And it wouldn't have been with him anyway. It definitely would have been. But I met him. A picture with Prince is worth it. You get that blown up and framed. That memory.
Starting point is 00:10:19 I was here. I saw it. You were here? You were here? That's good you were here for that memory. That's right. I remember what happened I saw it. You were here?
