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,
Starting point is 00:01:52 the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello, my undeadly darlings. It's Teresa, your resident ghost host. And do I have a treat for you.
Starting point is 00:02:25 Haunting is crawling out from the shadows, and it's going to be devilishly good. We've got chills, thrills, and stories that'll make you wish the lights stayed on. So join me, won't you? Let's dive into the eerie unknown together. Sleep tight, if you can.
Starting point is 00:02:43 Listen to Haunting on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Muhammad Ali, George Foreman, 1974. George Foreman was champion of the world. Ali was smart and he was handsome. The story behind The Rumble in the Jungle is like a Hollywood movie. But that is only half the story. There's also James Brown, Bill Withers, B.B. King, Miriam Akiba.
Starting point is 00:03:06 All the biggest black artists on the planet. Together in Africa. It was a big deal. Listen to Rumble, Ali, Foreman, and the Soul of 74 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. That's us for the donkey of the day. That's pretty fun. Charlamagne the Devil? Possibly.
Starting point is 00:03:28 The Breakfast Club. Yes, Donkey of the Day for Monday, October 21st goes to an off-duty Wisconsin police officer working as a substitute teacher named Steve Williams. It's Monday, man, so I don't got time for the foolishness. Let's just get right to it. Steve is under investigation after he was accused of reenacting the murder of George Floyd in the classroom. Not of reenacting the murder of George Floyd in the classroom.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Not just reenacting the murder of George Floyd, but making racially harmful comments and twisting a student's arm behind the child's back during classes at a high school in Woodbury, Minnesota. Let's go to CBS News, Minnesota, for the report, please. The images are hard to see a reenactment of the police actions that resulted in the murder of George Floyd. We do know the substitute teacher in question, Stephen Williams, is no longer employed by the staffing agency. Williams is a police officer in Prescott, Wisconsin. The police chief there says he is on administrative leave pending the results of an investigation into the matter. It was egregious, it was insensitive, and it was racist. Racial justice advocates say more needs to be done.
Starting point is 00:04:26 He needs to be banned. I also believe he needs to be fired. Who wants that kind of person coming to your door if you have to make a 911 call? Who harbors a lot of racial animus, who claims police brutality doesn't exist, and who was willing to demonstrate a very deadly police technique on a young black boy. Woodbury High School issued a statement to parents about what they described as a racially harmful situation that affected the school community. It listed comments and actions students described, including claims that he can get away with murder and that police brutality is not real.
Starting point is 00:05:08 Now, I'm not about to sit here and discuss with you why this was wrong. I would rather talk to you about beating people up. OK, see, Steve Williams, you need your ass beat. All right. And furthermore, if I have to explain to you why he needs his ass beat. And guess what? You need your ass beat, too. Imagine your child comes home and tells you that a teacher substitute otherwise put a student on the ground in front of the class as part of a reenactment of the police actions that resulted in the murder of george floyd george floyd the brother who died in 2020 after a white uh minneapolis police officer derrick chauvin knelt on his neck for nine and a half minutes as as george pleaded for help and
Starting point is 00:05:39 said he could not breathe can you imagine your child telling you not only did a teacher lay you on the ground to reenact george floyd but the teacher twisted your arm and was spewing racially harmful comments. That's when I start doing jail math. OK, see, jail math is when you start calculating if you can afford to go to jail. You start doing the math in your head. OK, Steve, go and catch these hands. But I'm going to catch this charge. I'm going to need money for bail.
Starting point is 00:06:01 I'm going to need money for a lawyer. But it's OK, because my god is an awesome god and god will provide a way because today i have to do the dirty because of what satan did to my seed my child my heart outside my body can you imagine as a father i can feel the pain this family is feeling for their child and the child today now the school said what he did was reprehensible uh he's on administrative leave they said he was removed from the classroom and barred from stepping foot on any district property. But see what folks don't understand about situations like that is the trauma that child will feel, the trauma that child's parents will feel. That's going to last a lifetime.
Starting point is 00:06:39 OK, it takes a lot of work to regulate your body after experiencing certain traumas and a trauma like that who's gonna pay for my therapy and counseling what if i want to do movement-based practices like yoga dancing exercise who's gonna pay for that that's why i just got a box okay i gotta beat you up all right by the way i'm not encouraging violence i'm encouraging defending my child from some bum ass substitute teacher okay we just got a box i saw saw Remy Ma say something a couple of days ago and I agree with it. I like talking about fighting. Sometimes people be needing hands put on them.
Starting point is 00:07:14 That's it. Like that is it. Because when you do something like this to someone's child, you are showing a total disregard for that child's family. You think that child's family is OVO, the other vaginal option. You're just assuming this child comes from a long line of sweets, okay? That's the only conclusion I can come to. How can you do something like this to a child, okay, and not think there's at least one man,
Starting point is 00:07:41 at least one man in this young man's life that loves them and is willing to crash out behind them steve you got to show me okay when you disrespect my child you disrespected me when you do that to my child you have done that to me now i need my child to stay in a child's place and i need to see if steve really crashed something okay you got to show me that you could do that to a grown-ass man Please let Remy Ma give Steve Williams the biggest hee haw. Hee haw, hee haw. You stupid mother, you dumb. I'm not about to go back and forth with you
Starting point is 00:08:12 on why this reenactment was wrong. I'd rather fight. All right, let's just fight. I agree. Nothing else to talk about. What we talking about? You said you could fight, right? Who?
Starting point is 00:08:22 You, didn't you tell me that? You got hands? Nope. I'm just saying, because you definitely should fight. You can't you tell me that you got hands nope i'm just saying because you definitely should fight you can't go there and lose nope i'll figure out a way to win can't go there and lose that is that is like a i don't know against the civil rights act or something i'll figure out a way to win all right well thank you for that donkey today yes indeed now uh you mentioned remi ma salute to remi ma i seen her uh at the game this weekend dropping a clues bombs for remi ma uh i see remi in a minute we were talking and she heard us on the radio talking Remy Ma.

Starting point is 00:08:55 There was no blocks. I didn't say that. She said it was a dirt road and forest. Yes, I believe it. She said, I thought, she said, I ain't gonna lie. I ain't never said no back blocks.
Starting point is 00:09:03 Why do I say back blocks? That's because we're from this like back blocks. But where he's from it's like back woods. She said, I thought, she said, I ain't gonna lie. I ain't never said no back blocks. Why do I say back blocks? That's because where we from is like back blocks, but where he from is like back woods. She said it was dirt roads. She said, I thought Charlamagne was trying to off me. She said it was so dark and it was no streets. It was just dirt. It was just forest and dirt. She said, I thought Charlamagne was trying to off me.
