So let's unpack that. Having been the first lady of the entire country and representing the country and the world, I couldn't afford to have that kind of disdain. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast. I just wanted to know how you came up with the donkey of the day. Because you're mean. I am not.

What did I do? I made a donkey of the day. There's a bunch of donkeys out here. That is why Charlamagne the day. We live a life where we bite our tongue based off who we may have been. He never would say anything. You don't give a damn, don't throw it home. Hey!

Charlamagne, give it to him! Give it to him! On The Breakfast Club. In the words of Charlamagne the guy, he's a donkey. He ain't my ****. Oh man, Charlamagne, you giving Donkey the day to who now? Yes, Donkey the guy. He's a donkey. That's what I'm saying. He ain't my ****. What's going on? Oh man, Charlamagne, you giving donkey the day to who now? Yes, Donkey the Day for Thursday, May 1st,

is going to a 35 year old Kentucky woman named Makisha Johnson. Now today is May 1st, and do you know what today is? It's the first day of mental health awareness month, okay? Drop on the clues, bombs, and mental health awareness month. This month is dedicated to raising awareness, promoting education, and providing resources to support those struggling for mental health awareness. This month is dedicated to raising awareness, promoting education, and providing resources to support those struggling with mental health challenges.

And that is what we are doing today with this donkey. We are raising awareness to those struggling with mental health issues, because Makisha is clearly struggling with mental health issues, okay? She was a patient at a Kentucky hospital, and she did something that a lot of people think about doing when the process at the hospital is taking too long. What do you mean, Uncle Sharla? She did something that a lot of people think about doing when the process at the hospital is taking too long.

What do you mean Uncle Shala? She did something that a lot of people think about doing when the process at the hospital is taking too long. Well, let's go to WDRB for the report please. A woman is under arrest in Louisville after reportedly choking and assaulting a UofL hospital nurse. Court records say a nurse was making her round Saturday afternoon when 35 year old Mikeesha Johnson allegedly attacked her.

Police say footage of the incident shows Johnson choking the nurse, then slamming her to the ground where she reportedly began hitting the nurse in the face. Officers say Johnson claims she was angry at the staff for taking too long to discharge her.

Johnson was charged with assault of a healthcare provider, wanton endangerment and menacing. Here's the thing. When you're ready to go, you're ready to go. Okay, we have all been part of the discharge process from the hospital in some way, shape or form, whether you've been the patient or whether you've been waiting with somebody.

And yes, the hospital does drag their feet sometime. Okay, it is a hurry up and wait situation. Nothing is worse when you have to unexpectedly go to the hospital. Like you gotta go to the ER. Like something not right with you, or the kid's got a bone out of socket, so you gotta up and leave the house and you didn't plan to, oh my God.

You'd be so ready to leave the hospital once they tell you nothing wrong or they fix what is wrong. But the hospital do be taken forever. But just because you think about choking somebody doesn't give you the right to do it. Okay, especially when this nurse wasn't doing anything but her job.

Nurses out here working long hours, they're underpaid, they're stressed, and they always put their own health at risk just to take care of our sick asses. Okay, they do not deserve to be attacked on the job full stop. But also, if you're trying to speed up the process, Makisha, the quickest way to slow things down is by physically attacking the nurse. Okay, you're definitely not going home now.

You're going to jail. Now, I'm not here to make excuses for her violence. Okay, what she did was wrong. But we have to know something was off with her mentally, right? You gotta know that. There is a lot of things that are going to push people to the breaking point in this day and time that we live in. It's gonna be a lot of things

that are gonna make people snap. And it's because folks like Makisha are walking around with undiagnosed mental illnesses, okay? A lot of folks out here under pressure and they don't got no tools, no resources, no coping skills. They not going to no therapy. They don't have no emotional outlets. They just have frustration and nowhere healthy to put it and they end up projecting on people the way that Makisha

Projected on to this nurse and that's not an individual problem. Okay, that just doesn't stand with Makisha. That's a societal problem We don't take mental health seriously. We tell people just to man up or suck it up or you know, get it We tell people just to man up or suck it up or, you know, get it. Why? Suck it up. You know, girl, you know, you're a best eater. Why you know, because I could have tied all of that in with Kanye, too. But I didn't because he's somebody else that we know is dealing with mental health issues and people be telling him to suck it up. He did it literally.

But we tell people to man up and get over it or just deal with it. Meanwhile, people out here exploding over little things. Okay? And others have to pay the price like that poor nurse. So we need to get people help, get them therapy. I personally don't believe this young woman, Makisha Johnson, needs to be in handcuffs, but she does deserve to get the credit today for being stupid so give her the biggest he-ha. You alright Jess? Yes yo and this man said suck it up and people exploding over little things.

You've been writing this with so much gay intention. Like oh my god. Gay intention. You gay invention. That sounded like an album. Exploded over little things. But no, it is mental health awareness month. So let's, you know, pay attention to what mental health awareness is all about. Okay, there are people out here struggling with all type of mental health challenges that they don't know what to do with. So let this be the month that you know, we should do it all the time, but we should always be raising awareness and promoting mental health education and providing resources to people who need it. So you're going to do that?

Give Kanye some empathy. Am I going to give him empathy? Well, here's the thing. The reason I gave Mekesha Johnson donkey today is because she's 35 years old. At some point, you know, you should know better know better you know you're not responsible for your trauma but you are responsible for your healing mm-hmm I mean I hear you just because what you about to say what I think you said something crazy this salmon burger is the I tried to tell you drop one of Is this banana pudding? This is banana pudding and then strawberry banana pudding. Abdul out there, Abdulin, okay?

No pork out there, everything is turkey, chicken. Everything. Give me the sandwich, I got the one with cheese and some special sauce. I'm trying to tell you. They out there in Newark, y'all. I was in Newark last week and I went to Abbey the sandwich specialist

and my guy Abdul, I was like, y'all gotta taste this because y'all think I just be capping when I be telling you how amazing things are. This the guy who had called up here and was like you said you was gonna come to my spot and didn't come and then you went? Yes. Is that him? Yes. Oh look at that shit, that is a fire Charlamagne.
