Come on, man.
You're asking me that?
You're right.
It's me you're talking about.
You're right.
All right.
Well, let's get the show cracking.
Front page news, what are we talking about?
We are going to be talking about imagine that you call into work sick, and then your job
actually has nurses come and check on you.
That's dope.
Just to make sure you're really sick.
I don't see nothing wrong with that.
Wow.
Okay.
I'm going to tell you what company's doing that.
All right.
We'll get into that next Keep It Locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
What's happening?
Let's get some front page news.
Where we starting with, Yee?
So much going on.
I don't know where to start, but
let's start off with some sports.
Hedge fund billionaire Steve
Cohen is buying the New York
Mets, and he's
worth about $13.6 billion
according to Forbes real-time
billionaire tracker. But as you know, the Mets
don't do so well in New York as compared to the
Yankees. They have a valuation
of $2.3 billion, which is about half of what the Yankees is valued at.
And they also had a 2018 revenue of $340 million, which is, in comparison to the Yankees, their revenue was $668 million.
Oh, God bless them, man.
You got a couple billion dollars to just spend on a baseball team.
Says a lot about the success that you've had in your life.
Yeah, that's pretty dope. Alright, George Zimmerman is suing
Trayvon Martin's parents
for $100
million.
Okay, according to his attorney
Larry Klayman, he's saying
that he believes there was a conspiracy
to frame him and that's why he
wants that money in damages. The chief allegation
To frame him? Yes.
Frame? I'm going to tell you why. The chief allegation. To frame him? Yes. Frame?
I'm going to tell you why.
That sounds crazy.
The chief allegation in the lawsuit is that Ben Crump, the civil rights attorney, he's been up here before,
helped to swap out a witness who was reluctant, Brittany Diamond Eugene, for her half-sister, Rachel Jeantel.
You guys know her from being on the stand at the trial, and she was the one that was on the phone with him.
And they're saying, according to George Zimmerman's lawsuit, that she posed as Trayvon Martin's girlfriend when it was really her sister who was dating Trayvon and on the phone with him during the encounter.
So, as you guys know, Rachel was a key prosecution witness.
And she testified that Trayvon told her in the phone call that someone was following him.
So that's kind of their chief allegation in this ridiculous lawsuit. And just so you know, attorney Larry Klayman is also the person who had filed several lawsuits in the past,
including that birther lawsuit that said that President Barack Obama couldn't be president
because he wasn't a natural born citizen. I didn't read anything about that case when I saw
that headline yesterday because I thought the headline was so ridiculous. And the first thing
I think when I see that is like, you know, why hasn't somebody just off this dude yet?
And I don't want to have that kind of energy or put that kind of stuff
out there. So I didn't even dig into it.
But I thought that he was going to be suing for like defamation
or something. Being that he was found
not guilty and they still
paint him as a murderer. But I didn't know
that they was going to say he got framed.
He was going to say that he was framed.
A conspiracy. Sounds crazy.
He won.
But according to Ben Crump, he also released a statement in response to this lawsuit.
He said, I have every confidence that this unfounded and reckless lawsuit will be revealed for what it is,
another failed attempt to defend the indefensible and a shameless attempt to profit off the lives and grief of others. This plaintiff continues to display a callous disregard
for everyone but himself,
re-victimizing individuals whose lives
were shattered by his own misguided
actions. And yo, people, man,
I just, I don't know. I know
when that energy comes back to
George Zimmerman, it's going to come back in a
real, real way. Plus, you don't know how a person
is suffering right now. We don't know him.
And people like to say he's walking around
Florida. He's not walking around Florida. That man does not
live in Florida. That man lives an hour away from
Charlotte, North Carolina.
Alright. And I want to tell you guys
about a once a month birth control pill
now that scientists are working on.
So far, they've tested this pill on pigs
and now they want to test it on people next.
So, the whole thing about this is
you know, you take the birth control pill every day,
and if you forget a day, it's difficult.
Or say you go out of town, and you travel without your pills,
and you're like, damn, I'm out of town for three days,
and I don't have my birth control pills.
So now I can't take it for three days.
Well, this capsule will help you reduce unintended pregnancies.
And the way that it works, it's coated with gelatin,
and that stays in your stomach for weeks after being swallowed.
And then from there, it slowly releases hormones, and those hormones are what prevent pregnancy.
That can't be healthy.
And Chipotle, they have nurses now that check on employees who call in sick.
And they're trying to make sure these employees are really sick and they don't just have a hangover.
So they said, we have nurses on call.
So if you say, hey, I've been sick, you get the call into the nurse.
The nurse validates that it's not a hangover. You're really sick.
And then we pay for the day off to get healthy again.
Now, what they're saying is it's not just a way to expose you if you're lying about being sick.
It's also to make sure that the restaurants are as clean and healthy as possible just to make sure you don't have any type of virus or something.
I want to commend you on those segues.
You went from pigs to people to Chipotle.
I thought those were all great segues.
Okay.
That's number one.
And I love the fact that they are sending nurses out when people are sick.
I wish they did that for people who didn't have health care.
But how are you going to tell me if I got a stomachache?
Like, what, are they just going to check on me?
Yeah, he really has a stomachache.
Listen, if I don't got no health care and I work at Chipotle and I say something's wrong with me and they're sending doctors and nurses out to check on me, thank you.
Thank you very much.
Well, they don't want sick employees preparing food, and I guess they want to make sure
that the food, I don't know, I don't believe it.
I'm only homesick because I can't afford health care, so
if I work here and you got those type of benefits
where you send nurses on call, thank
you. Remember that donkey the day I gave when
the dude needed a little sponge bath and he was faking to be
handicapped so the nurse
would scrub him? Yes. Hey,
that might work too. It's not going to work like that. Alright, well, that's
front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051 if you're upset you need to vent hit us up right now phone

These girls gotta stop being naked on my timeline.
Nobody cares, Trav. You're a gay man.
We don't care what you think about naked women.
No, Lizzo.
At this point, you're sexually harassing us, Lizzo.
Stop being naked on my timeline naked all the time. They're very artistic
photos. It is a double standard, though, because
a guy couldn't do that.
Don't nobody want to see

any naked guys on your timeline ever? Because I
see them on mine.

I want to say salute to Lauren McCarley from Clovis, South Carolina.
She sent me a nice little card.
It's just a simple card, but she wrote a nice little note in there.
And I just want her to know that I see her, man. Salute to
Lauren McCartney. Dropping the clues bonds for Lauren McCartney.
That made me feel
good this morning, the little note she sent me. Thank you.
Alright, well let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Sin Santana.
This is
The Rumor Report with Angela
Yee.
Alright, Sin Santana.
Now, she's bringing, well, she was on The Real,
and they brought up an episode of Lip Service
where Sin Santana was in the midst of a discussion with us
about different men and different races,
like dating outside of your race,
and are there any things you could say,
like, what is it like dating this type of guy?
And here's what happened on that show.
Hispanic men are way more possessive.
And black guys cater to a Spanish girl, especially.
Like, you know what?
Let me not even get into that.
She's going to get herself in trouble now.
I didn't mean it like that.
But, you know, black girls are going to take it personal.
You'll be like, uh-uh.
Well, people were really upset about those comments.
And she was on the real actually explaining herself.
Here's what she said.
That was definitely tough and a learning moment for me.
I think what happened was, well, we were talking about our experiences with men, different men, races and ethnicities, and just comparing our experiences.
I feel like I poorly articulated myself, and I irresponsibly repeated something that I heard throughout my teenage years.
And I think people took that message wrongly.
Like, that's not what I meant.
And for that, I do apologize.
I have apologized.
I would love to talk about it.
All right.
I see what she's saying.
She learned something when she was younger,
and she realized that she got older.
It wasn't true.
You know, we're not going to sit here and act like we all weren't taught things
and our coaches that don't serve us anymore now that we're older.
I also just want to explain because we've had some lip service moments that, you know,
that show is never designed for people to say things that will get them in all kinds
of situations and issues.
But it is a relaxed conversation and people are just, it's like if you're talking to your
friends and there's a lot of things you would say to your friends that you might not say
on a different platform. So people were talking
about, this is what it's like to date
a Hispanic guy. This is what it's like when you
date. And so I don't know what
her experiences are, but it definitely got her
in trouble. I don't think that she for real
obviously meant any harm by that.
Yeah, she was wrong simply because, you know, black
men, we cater to whatever race of woman
we are with because we are simply the best.
And if you don't have a black man, you should get you one because we don't cheat and we cater to our women.
Destiny's Child wrote that song, Cater for You, for us, based off our experiences and how we treat our women that we're with.
Well, speaking of cheating, no, I'm kidding.
So, Billy Dee Williams, he says that, you know, they were talking about this interview he did with Esquire magazine where he says that he is gender fluid and that he uses both male and female pronouns for himself.
Right. If you guys remember, we reported on a story.
He said, I say himself and herself.
I also see myself as feminine as well as masculine.
And I'm a very soft person.
I'm not afraid to show that side of myself.
Well, he clarified his comments now in an interview with Undefeated.
He said he was simply talking about the ways that men can embrace their feminine side.
He said, well, first of all, what the hell is gender fluid?
I want to close my eyes with Billy Dee Williams.
I said this when he first said this.
I'm like, he's 82 years old.
He don't know what that is?
He said, what I was talking about was about men getting in touch with their softer side of themselves.
And that's it.
So he wasn't really saying that he is gender fluid.
He is talking about the sacred, masculine, and divine feminine energies that exist in all genders.
It's about qualities.
I don't understand why human beings think because we came from a man and we came from a woman.
We have to have both of those energies within us.
We have to have both of those sacred, us. We have to have both of those sacred
masculine and divine feminine qualities
in us. So they just made that up.
Well, I think they misinterpreted it more.
That's the world we live in. They misinterpreted it.
He didn't ever say that he's gender
fluid. He said that he
says himself and herself and he said he sees
himself as feminine as well as masculine.
They interpreted that as meaning that he's
gender fluid. What he was saying is I was talking about men getting in touch with the female side
of themselves.
I wasn't talking about sex.
I wasn't talking about being gay or straight.
Billy Dee said, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Gender fluid.
I ain't saying none of that.
I don't even know what that means.
First of all, that's a new term that just came around the past four or five years.
What the hell would Lando from Star Wars know about some goddamn gender fluidity?
He said, whoa.
Even when I hear gender fluid, I think they're talking about semen.
I don't know what the hell he's talking about.
But that's interesting.
And I was trying to explain to you, Envy, that gender fluid, anyway, regardless of all that,
doesn't necessarily mean anything to do with who you're having sex with.
It's just.
I didn't say that.
I just asked what it meant.
No, I know, because we had a whole discussion.
But even deeper, y'all really need to pick up books like Soul of the Superior Man
or this other book I'm reading right now called The 13 Original Clan Women.
And it's about sacred masculine and divine feminine, man.
It's just about qualities that exist in all genders,
and you need a healthy balance of both to be a whole human.
Well, Billy Dee Williams said that you should read Carl G. Jung,
who was a psychiatrist, and that's who he was referencing.
He said it would be an interesting education for a lot of people.
All right, now let's talk about Tekashi69.
Prosecutors have filed a request for a lighter sentence.
It's official.
So they're asking for some leniency.
We'll see what happens.
The feds do say that 6ix9ine walked them through his social media posts
to provide context for the criminal actions of the, quote, gang.
And he's been very cooperative, so
the judge will determine if the
sentence will be lighted then. I bet you he's out before Christmas.
No, I think he gets three to five
with time. So if you know there was this other guy, the last person
that they sentenced, he was
snitching too, and they gave him 20 years.
Yeah, I bet you. And he was down with the tradeway gang.
He was snitching with 6ix9ine. I bet you he's out before Christmas.
Three to five with time, sir. He's done a year already.
Alright, well I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report.
All right.
Thank you, Miss Yee.
Now, we got front page news coming up.
Yes, let's talk about George Zimmerman.
He is suing Trayvon Martin's parents for $100 million.
Wow.
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.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get some front page news.
Where we starting, Yee?
Well, let's talk about the impeachment hearings, right?
And what happened yesterday. We'll just give you some cliff notes.
So, Professor Noah Feldman, and he's a professor at Harvard,
he spoke about Trump being impeached and this whole impeachment process
and whether or not he should be impeached.
And here's what he said.
If the president uses his office for personal gain, the only recourse available under the Constitution is for him to be impeached
because the president cannot be, as a practical matter, charged criminally while he is in office
because the Department of Justice works for the president.
So the only mechanism available for a president
who tries to distort the electoral process for personal gain
is to impeach him.
That is why we have impeachment.
All right, and in addition to that,
Jerry Nadler explains why impeachment needs to be considered now.
He's the Judiciary Committee chairman.
The patriots who founded our country were not fearful men.
They fought a war.
They witnessed terrible violence.
They overthrew a king.
But as they met to frame our Constitution,
those patriots still feared one threat above all,
foreign interference in our elections.
They were deeply worried that we would lose our newfound liberty,
not through a war, but through corruption from within.
Now, University of North Carolina Law School professor Michael Gerhard also said,
if what we're talking about isn't impeachable, then nothing is impeachable.
That's a fact.
Right. In addition to that, Stanford Law professor Pam Carlin came under fire
for her remarks about Barron Trump.
The Constitution says there can be no titles of nobility.
So while the president can name his son Barron, he can't make him a baron.
Now, Melania Trump took offense to that, and she tweeted,
a minor child deserves privacy and should be kept out of politics.
Pamela Carlin, you should be ashamed of your very angry and obviously biased public pandering
and using a child to do it.
So she did actually apologize.
Pamela Carlin, I want to apologize for mentioning the president's son.
It was wrong for me to do that.
Yeah, I mean, I don't think he gets impeached.
I don't think that ever gets to a Republican Senate.
And Republicans have shown me they care about the party more than the country.
So I don't think it's going to happen.
All right.
Now, George Zimmerman is suing Trayvon Martin's parents and others for $100 million.
He believes there was a conspiracy to frame him, and that's why he wants that money.
His attorney, Larry Klayman, and just as a sidebar, Klayman was the one who filed several lawsuits in the past, including a birther lawsuit that claimed that President Barack Obama couldn't be president because he wasn't a natural born citizen, which, of course, you all know he is. All right. So according to this lawsuit, the chief allegation is that Ben Crump, who's a civil rights attorney, actually helped swap out a witness who was very reluctant, Brittany Diamond Eugene, for her half sister, Rachel, and helped prepare her to deliver a script that was intended to land Zimmerman in prison for killing Trayvon Martin.
And that's his main issue that he's saying.
He's saying there was a plan that was made in a three-minute phone call.
Now, of course, Ben Crump responded to this, and he said,
I have every confidence that this unfounded and reckless lawsuit will be revealed for what it is,
another failed attempt to defend the indefensible and a shameless attempt to profit off the lives and grief of others.
This plaintiff continues to display a callous disregard for everyone but himself,
re-victimizing individuals whose lives were shattered
by his own misguided actions.
He would have us believe that he is the innocent victim of a deep conspiracy,
despite the complete lack of any credible evidence
to support his outlandish claims.
Listen, it's very hard not to want to see something really bad
happen to George Zimmerman.
Like when I heard Jay-Z say,
y'all killed X for Let Zimmerman Live,
I feel him 100%.
Even though I don't want to put that kind of energy out there,
it's hard not to think that.
So when I hear a story like what you just reported,
I don't know what to think other than,
why is George Zimmerman still here?
But karma does not have an expiration date.
Whether it's tomorrow, a year from now,
five years from now, ten years from now,
it will come back to me.
We've been waiting for karma for a long time with that gentleman.
Not really.
And the fact that he sold the gun.
I hope he's living a miserable life. I hope so, too. When you a long time with that gentleman. Not really. The fact that he sold the gun. I hope he's living a miserable life.
I hope so, too.
When you say long time, not really.
Because karma has no expiration date.
When it comes, it's going to come.
It's going to keep coming.
We need it to come pretty fast with him.
And, you know, he hasn't been charged in anything.
Zimmerman, he's been arrested.
I don't know how you turned that into that, but wow.
I wasn't even talking about that.
He's been arrested several times in alleged domestic incidents.
He hasn't been charged.
And that's about it, you know.
But, yes, I do believe that Carmen is going to continue doing his thing.
I believe in that.
All right?
I'm Angela Lee.
Why are you looking at me like that, Jill? I can see why you would want to get it over fast with him.
That's all.
I can see why.
He said he was gay.
So what?
No, you're a kinky this morning.
I don't know what's wrong with you.
All right.
Well, that's front page news.
Now, when we come back, 805-85-1051, we were talking about Chipotle.
Now, what happened with Chipotle, Yeezy?
Well, Chipotle, according to what they, this is their policy.
If you call out sick from Chipotle, they have nurses that will do a call in to check on you to make sure that you are indeed sick.
I think it's dope.
Not just hungover.
Their real purpose for that, they said,
is not to try to expose you or catch you out there,
but basically to make sure that you haven't gone to a restaurant,
prepared food, and been sick,
and potentially gotten the food contaminated,
or that there's no type of problem in the restaurant that could harm other people.
For people who don't have health care, that's great.
You work at a place and you get sick,
and they send a nurse to come check on you?
But I don't think they're checking on you to help you. I just think
they're just coming to see if you're sick. Like, okay, he's
really sick and they're keeping moving. I don't think they're going to... That's it?
Yeah, I don't think they're going to... She's going to diagnose me and then that's it?
Yeah, yeah, sick, bye. I think it's more for the company
not for you. Well, they said there was a
norovirus outbreak
at a chain in Virginia that was due to
an unenforced sick policy.
So sick employees
were preparing the food.
Yeah, so you're sick,
stay your ass home.
They're not helping you.
Why can't you just
take my word for it?
No, they want to make sure
you're not lying.
And they might also
want to make sure that
in case you are for real sick,
that it didn't spread
in the restaurant
to the food
and make it contaminated.
I don't know.
All right.
It sounds crazy
because do they do that
at every restaurant?
No.
Let's open up the phone lines.
It's 800-585-1051.
What are some excuses you use not to go to work?
Some lies that you told.
I always say that if you are going to call out sick, just give as little details as possible.
And have you ever got caught for lying?
Have you lied and say, hey, I was this or I was that and then got caught up in it as well?
And then you are on Facebook living your best life on vacation.
And it depends what you do for a living, right?
What you mean?
Because we're in the radio business, you know what I'm saying?
So if we get super drunk one night or we're out late to a party and we oversleep,
that's just what it is, you know what I mean?
And I think that anybody that's in this business will understand.
That's not what it is.
Yes, it is.
I'm drunk.
I ain't coming to work today.
Yes, I was drunk.
And anyway, isn't a hangover being sick?
I'm too drunk to come to work this morning.
Would you want me on the air wiling?
Is having a hangover considered being sick?
You said what?
Isn't having a hangover considered being sick?
No.
That's self-inflicted.
Because you could be throwing up.
That's self-inflicted.
Yeah, but you made yourself sick.
That's what self-inflicted means.
What if you got alcohol poisoning?
That's sick.
That's making yourself sick.
You're drinking like that to get sick.
Yeah, that's self-inflicted.
Well, 800-585-1051.
Some excuses you use not to go to work.
Somebody get Marinelle on the phone.
M-Eazy.
Because M-Eazy had the stupidest excuse I've ever heard in the history of my life.
I think we talked about it on air, so we can talk about it when we come back.
No, we need to call him and let him explain himself.
He might still be sleeping, but that was absolutely positivity.
And when you lie, you can't backtrack.
You got that right.
I made him go tell the truth, because that was just a stupid lie to be telling people.
We'll talk about it when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Pull out your phone.
Call in right now.
You call me.
Add your opinion to The Breakfast Club.
Go tell the truth.
Break it down.
800-585-1051.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about something that Chipotle is doing.
Yes, Chipotle.
What's it called?
How do you combine Chipotle and Chipotle?
Chipotle.
What the hell is wrong with you, bro?
That's like a really classy restaurant.
I get a number one with cheese and rice and beans?
Chipotle?
What is wrong with you?
Chipotle.
We're talking about what happened with Chipotle.
Explain to the people what happened to you.
Yeah, so if you call out sick, they have nurses on call that will do a check-in with you
to make sure that you're really sick and not hungover.
So we're asking 800-585-1051, what are some excuses you use not to go to work?
And if you lied, have you ever got caught?
Now, we used to work with a guy called M-Easy.
He used to do the boards up here for us.
Let's call him up because he had one of the illest stories.
The stupidest story I've ever heard in my life.
And then Charlamagne made him go tell the truth.
Because it was so stupid.
It's like, yo, I can't even work with somebody who would tell a lie like this.
It's the same lie that guys tell when they don't come home at night.
Oh, my goodness.
Let's call him now. M-Eazy.
Marinel.
Oh, this is not good.
Yes, it is, baby.
Good morning, brother.
We have a conversation on here and your name came up.
First of all, Marinel, how are you feeling?
I'm good.
Good morning, guys.
You're not sick, right?
Let's introduce Marinel. Marinel, his radio name is? I'm good. Good morning, A. You're not sick, right? Let's introduce Marinel.
Marinel, his radio name is
M-Eazy. Correct. He works here at
Power 105 in New York. He used to be all
bought up on the Breakfast Club. Right. Now he bought
up for Miss Angie Martinez, the queen Angie
Martinez. I'm her producer. Her producer.
My bad, my bad. He also does weekends.
He recently got married and just had another
baby, so congratulations to him on that.
There you go. Choke his ego before you go in.
But, you know, we were having this conversation about some excuses you use not to go to work,
and when you lied, have you ever got caught?
Now, has that ever happened to you, M-Eazy?
Yeah, it's just happened to me.
Now, either you can tell the story or I'm going to tell the story.
And you know if I tell the story, I'm going to put some sauce on it.
So go ahead.
Go ahead and tell your version of the story, Charlamagne.
Go ahead.
Well, Marinette was out living his best life one night.
He was at a script club, and he was tweeting about how, you know,
him and DJ First Choice are going to be the next Envy and DJ Pro Style.
That's right.
And it's our time.
That's right.
And then the next morning, M-Eazy doesn't show up to work.
Gone.
I'm like, where the hell is M-Eazy at?
Would you like to take him from here, or would you like for me to keep going?
Keep going, Charlamagne. I like this story better.
So, Emeasy,
Emeasy, I'm like, where's Emeasy?
Emeasy says he's in jail.
He's in jail. He texted us he's in jail.
He says he's in jail.
So was he? I'm like, well, you're in jail.
So he comes in and he goes, well, they didn't actually
arrest me. They just threw me in the back of the police
car and took me down to the station to talk to me.
Okay, okay.
Can I?
In my defense.
Yes.
In my defense, I was nervous.
I'm usually a worker that's always at work.
I don't miss days for nothing.
That's not my style.
He's Haitian.
Because, again, I slept through a shift that I should have been up and I was partying a while in the night before.
So I panicked.
And he told the bosses, right?
He told our coach, Thea Mitchum.
That's right.
He told her that he had got arrested and all that BS
and they put him in the back of the police car.
Correct.
And he came in here and told us the story.
Why did you just say you weren't feeling good?
Again, I panicked.
So this is where it gets worse.
What did I tell you, M-Eazy, when you told us that story?
What did I tell you?
Don't go back there and lie to that lady.
They're going to look at you crazy.
No, act like you're phone breaking up now.
I said, if that's the lie you told to them people back there,
your ass is about to get fired.
And I believed you, M-Eazy, just so you know.
I knew he was lying.
So Charlamagne made him go back there and say,
look, I was lying to y'all.
I was scared.
Here's the truth.
That's right. And he got suspended.
You got suspended for a week. But guess what?
Four or five years later, you still got a job.
You know why? He actually got a promotion.
You know why? Because that black woman we got
back there named Coach Dear Mitchum, she understands.
And even though she know you was full of BS,
she's kept your black ass hair.
Right? This is true.
All right. So what's the point of lying?
So what's the moral of the story, M-Eazy?
There's two morals.
Don't go and get drunk the night before tweeting crazy.
And two, tell the truth.
That's it.
There you go.
Sac passe.
Sac passe.
Sac passe.
Look at him raising his son right.
Come on, give me one of them Abu Gabi's.
Sac passe.
No, man.
We'll see you later on, man.
I like no boo too. I just want to tell you something. Charlamagne's been very kinky this morning.. We'll see you later on, man. I like no boo too, man.
I just want to tell you something.
Charlamagne's been very kinky this morning.
Just going to give you that heads up.
And hold on.
Can we talk about your print interview?
I'm hearing you and Serge Ibaka print stuff.
Me?
My print?
What are you talking about?
Guys, guys, come on.
That was about as bad a segue with me with Serge.
You just said, hey, Envy, can we talk about your print?
Matter of fact, I'm going to cut out the search part and just leave that.
Watch the editing.
Watch the editing on this.
Gosh, you guys are kicking.
800-585-1051.
We want to hear your story.
What's some excuses you use not to go to work?
And when you lie, did you ever get caught?
Call us now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Can we talk about your print?
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, we're talking about Chipotle. And what happened DJ and the Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just join us, we're talking about Chipotle.
And what happened with Chipotle, Yee?
So they do this, they have this policy where if you call out sick,
they have nurses on call that will actually make sure you're sick and not hungover.
All right, well, let's go to the phone lines.
What are some excuses you use not to go to work?
Marcus, good morning.
What's going on, man?
What's going on, man?
Now, what's an excuse you use not to
go to work, bro? Man, you know what's so crazy?
I feel so bad, man, because I just
used an excuse this morning. You know
what I'm saying? And then y'all talked about this on the radio.
I told my boss this morning,
man, that I was getting up this morning,
man, taking my son to school, and
he jumped out of bed and dislocated
his shoulder. Why would you
lie on your son like that? I don't like doing those kind of lies because I think that it'll actually happen in real life.
Yeah, see, and I feel so bad.
I believe in karma.
Just like how y'all talked about it.
Everything y'all talked about this morning, I was just saying to myself, like, no lie.
How are we supposed to believe you?
You always know somebody's lying when they say no lie.
Thank you, bro.
Hello, who's this?
It's Marcus. Another Marcus. All right, Marcus. What lie did you say no lie. Thank you, bro. Hello, who's this? It's Marcus.
Another Marcus.
All right, Marcus.
What lie did you tell to not go to work, bro?
Well, I told the people that my mama had surgery.
And two weeks later, my mama pops in the store, and they're like,
oh, how you doing after your surgery?
And she was like, I ain't had no surgery.
Oh, my God.
So what happened to you?
Nothing.
I was good at work.
This guy. Oh, my goodness. All right happened to you? This guy.
Oh, my goodness.
All right, bro.
Moral is, don't believe anyone named Marcus.
I'm right here, King.
God, what's going on, man?
We still got to get that Krispy Kreme going, man.
Yeah, I'm ready.
I want to buy a Krispy Kreme.
All right.
Thank you, bro.
All right, y'all hold on.
Gabby, good morning, Gabby.
Good morning. Now, what lie did hold on. Gabby, good morning, Gabby. Good morning.
Now, what lie did you tell her not go to work?
I said that I was at a funeral, and I ended up getting flown out to L.A.
So I was in L.A., but they thought I was at a funeral.
Who flew you out to L.A.?
You got flewed out, girl?
I got flewed out.
So you had to lie and say somebody was dead to get some d***?
No, no, no, no, no.
What you mean flew out then?
Someone had died, but it was like two weeks prior.
Oh, so you ain't, I mean, that's technically not a lie.
But you weren't at a funeral.
But she wasn't at a funeral.
That is a lie.
But it's a worse lie when you actually say somebody died that didn't die and you was at their funeral.
So what you're saying, karma can't really affect it
because he already dead?
Exactly.
It was just a finesse.
A finesse.
I agree with that.
Okay.
How was the s*** though?
What?
Why are you asking her?
I asked you a legit question.
How was the sex?
Was it worth the lie?
I didn't have sex.
Well, could you pass?
So somebody just flew you out
for no reason?
Yes. It was for business.
Can you pass, Charlamagne?
You are lying.
Why would you lie?
You still lying.
You're just a liar.
Hello, who's this?
Oh, I want to be anonymous for this one.
It's the radio, sir.
I lied this morning.
You can give a fake name, bro.
Now, what did you lie about to miss work, bro?
Yo, man, I just want to say that I'm probably the master finesse at calling out and getting paid for it, man.
I got a plug for the hospitals so I can call out and get my doctor's note.
And probably all my family members at least died twice.
Where you from, bro?
I'm from Brooklyn.
Where? Where you work at?
Brooklyn. You know how we do.
Where you work at, King?
You better not work at the juice bar.
Don't worry about it, Mr. God.
Don't worry about it.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I don't like you playing the way you're playing because you're playing with sickness and you're
playing with people dying, bro.
That energy can come back to you.
I'm not telling you that it was wrong.
It definitely was wrong.
Right.
He said it's wrong.
I'm wrong, but it happened.
But why go so extreme with the lie?
Because no one questions it when it's extreme.
Nobody's going to make that up.
Thank you, bro.
You can't ask nobody.
Eventually, I'm going to fire you because you just got hard luck.
I studied it for you.
A lot of people say avoid unhappy and unlucky people.
I'm like, damn, everybody around you dying all the time?
Everybody around you sick?
I don't want this kind of energy around me.
My goodness.
I think it's time for the company to move in another direction.
800-585-1051
if you just
joined us. We're asking, what are some
excuses you use not to go to work? What's some
lies that you've told and have you ever got caught
lying? Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
DJ Envy
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club. Now
if you just joined us, we're talking about Chipotle.
You want to tell people what's going on with Chipotle?
Yes, if you're an employee and you call out sick, they have nurses on call that can actually verify that you're sick and not hungover.
I don't, what's the question?
What are some lies you told not to go to work?
I don't have a reason to lie.
Like, we grown.
Like, I overslept this week.
Like, I flew to L.A. because my partner Tiffany Haddish turned 40, so I went to her B-Day party.
And it was a party that actually
started early, like 6 p.m., so I'm like, I'll go
to the party, I'll wake up 2 a.m. LA time,
go do the show, but
I overslept. In the time it took me to get to the station,
I would have been there for like 30 minutes,
and I had to leave to catch my flight. So I'm just like,
y'all overslept.
There's no reason to lie.
For myself, I don't have to
lie because I'm usually here.
What lie do I have to tell?
I don't think I've ever called out sick here.
No?
We're grown.
But once again, our circumstances are different
because of the lifestyle that
goes with this radio thing.
Well, one of my best friends, I'm not going to name her name
because it's a bad lie that she told, but she's an
attorney. If you know me, you bad lie that she told, but she's an attorney.
If you know me, you'll know who she is.
And she actually was looking for a new job and she told her boss that she had jury duty, which is a terrible lie for an attorney to tell.
And he ended up being in court and calling her and saying, hey, I'm here.
Where are you?
See, now I got to fire you.
I got to.
I'm not firing you for, you know, being late.
I'm firing you for lying.
You know, she didn't get fired. That's crazy. She was looking for a new job anyway, so I don't think you for being late. I'm firing you for lying. You know, she didn't get fired.
That's crazy.
She was looking for a new job anyway, so I don't think she would have cared,
but she didn't end up getting fired.
Hello, who's this?
This is Destiny from Virginia.
Hey, Destiny, we're talking about lying to take off of work.
Have you did it?
Oh, yeah.
So what did you lie?
What did you say?
Well, like, I needed a mental health day because I was working at Walmart and customer service
during the holidays, and people are crazy.
Well, no, there's nothing wrong with that.
You can do that.
I definitely need some mental health days in my contract.
That's the truth.
Yeah, so I just called them and I told them.
I was like, well, my heart ain't in it,
so I'm not coming in today.
Wow.
That's real, though.
Yo, I respect that.
My heart ain't in it.
How can you not respect that?
My goodness.
You're being honest. My heart ain't in it. My heart ain't in it. How can you not respect that? My goodness. You're being honest.
My heart ain't in it.
My heart ain't in it.
I ain't mad at you, man.
Yo, I would rather you stay home than come to work and half-ass do your job because your heart ain't in it.
I just don't feel like it.
Thank you, mama.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, this is Angie.
Hey, Angie.
We're talking some lies you told to get off of work.
People named Angie don't lie.
What did you tell?
Exactly.
Thank you, Angela.
No problem, boo.
It is Angela.
So, look, in some states,
you're not required to give an explanation.
Right.
You just can't make it.
You're from where?
Yeah, I'm from Illinois.
I'm currently in Florida,
so I'm not a crazy Floridian,
but I'm from Chicago.
And in Illinois,
you're not required to give an explanation.
So I would just call and say, I'm not coming today.
If you need to reach me, here's my number.
See ya.
And you probably have a certain amount of sick days, like everyone does, that you can take.
Exactly.
For me, if I don't have sick days, if I don't want to go in, I'm not going.
I don't blame you.
All right.
Well, what's up?
It ain't going to break me.
Okay.
Well, thank you, Mama.
Now, what's the moral of the story, guys?
The moral of the story is a single lie discovered is enough to create doubt in every truth.
So when you are that employee who lies about, you know, being late to work for whatever reason,
when you get caught in that lie, your boss will never, ever trust you ever again.
Okay.
Ever.
Nayee, we got rumors on the way?
Yes, and we're going to talk about someone who I'm sure Charlamagne wants to sit down with one-on-one and have some questions for.
Okay, we'll get into that next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Is your country falling apart?
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 are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Ladonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of 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 a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

You ever work with somebody like, there's something really wrong with our camera guy.
He just says stuff out the blue.
He's a broken white man, and it's sad.
You know what I mean?
It's sad for a white man to be that broken.
I mean, come on, man.
You guys have been, you know,
the supremacists for such a long time.
You've been on top of civilization for such a long time.
Just to see this broken white man in here every day
is just sad.
Out of nowhere, he just said,
can I see your print?
I'm like, who are you talking to?
See, that's that last little bit of entitlement and privilege
he feels like he has to ask you that type of question.
That's all he can hold on to.
All right.
All right.
Well, we are The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Broken white men are the worst.
I mean, just such a waste of good white skin.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk a new documentary.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is the Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, Apple TV Plus announced a new documentary they've acquired,
and it's about a former music executive's Me Too journey.
That executive is Drew Dixon,
who alleged multiple instances of misconduct
by Russell Simmons.
So Oprah is going to be executive producing that,
and it's directed by Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering.
So should be interesting.
Yikes.
I know.
Listen.
What did Russell do to Oprah?
I don't know.
Maybe she's more concerned about
did Russell do this to these women?
How many women are speaking on this documentary?
This is more about Drew Dixon,
the woman who accused Russell and her journey.
So it's not like our Kelly docuseries.
It's more focused on one person and her journey.
I hope they talk to Russell Simmons.
Yeah, because that's only one side of the story, right?
It's always two sides of the story in situations like that.
So if you have Drew Dixon tell her side, then you have to have Russell tell only one side of the story, right? Like, it's always two sides of the story in situations like that. So if you have Drew Dixon tell her side,
then you have to have Russell tell his side if he wants to, right?
That would only be fair journalism.
I'm not saying that they aren't.
So who knows?
They just made this announcement,
and they actually have not responded to anybody's request for comments yet.
Is Russell Simmons even here in the States?
I don't know where he is at this moment, but he's been here.
I thought he was like in Bali or something like that.
All right. Now let's talk about Will Smith.
He actually was talking about his Aladdin co-star, Mina.
Now, Mina Masood says that he's been having a very difficult time getting roles.
He actually hasn't had any auditions since Aladdin was released,
even though that movie crossed the $1 billion
mark, he said, I'm kind of tired of
staying quiet about it. I want people to
know that it's not always dandelions
and roses when you're doing something
like Aladdin. He must have made millions.
He must be getting all these offers. It's none of those things.
I haven't had a single audition since Aladdin
came out. The big truth is I haven't really
seen a big anything from Aladdin.
Alright, so here is what Will Smith had to say.
He was questioned by people about what he thought about those statements.
The thing about this business that is not unlike life, it's hard by design.
So if you're having a hard time, it's because you're supposed to be. And that difficulty is overcome by patience and by commitment,
by dedication, endurance.
Dropping the clues bombs from Big Willie.
That's real.
Like life isn't easy.
Like stop letting social media make you think life isn't hard.
This is what happens when you're too busy looking at people's highlight reels
and you're not looking at the failures and you're not seeing the actual process and the losses
and the mistakes. That's this day and age
because you can see it on Instagram. You see people winning
and you're like, why am I not winning? Well, did you see
what it took them to get there? Bro, 10 years ago
I was 31 years old living
back with my mother in Moncks Corner,
South Carolina with a one-year-old daughter.
And my now wife was living back at home
with her mom. 10 years later
I'm doing okay in life.
We've all been through that grind.
Now it's after the fourth firing.
Now let's get to some exciting things.
Jason Derulo, he posted a picture.
Our lives are exciting.
Huh?
Our lives are exciting.
Let's get to some exciting things.
Our lives are exciting.
I wrote two New York Times bestsellers about it.
Dropping a clues bar for that too, goddammit.
Can I do my rumors?
It's not all about you.
It's not.
All right,
now,
this is about you though
because Jason Derulo
actually posted a picture
that was removed by Instagram
due to aroused genitalia.
That was the reason
why they removed it.
See?
He had a hard penis?
That's not fair.
That's not fair.
I've seen Kim Kardashian's
breast.
She doesn't have a penis.
Yeah,
but I've seen her nipples hard.
I've seen her nipples hard
on Instagram before and I blocked, I tried to nipples hard. I've seen her nipples hard on Instagram before.
And I blocked, I tried to block
that page. I commented on that page. I replied
to that page. And nothing has happened
to her. It's not fair.
Well, Jason Derulo also doesn't think it's fair
that Instagram took that picture down because it
goes against community guidelines. And here's
what he said. Instagram took
down my body pic.
All these girls be on Instagram showing their ass and all kind of crazy.
And I got underwear on and they took my pic down.
It's discrimination.
I seen Kim K.
I understand.
I can't help my size.
I seen Kim K's nipples.
He can't help his size.
I reported it and it was still up there.
He's absolutely right.
That's not right.
I don't even think you can debate him on that.
He's absolutely right.
Is that all you?
Not to say I was looking for his eggplant or anything like that,
but I'm just telling you what I did, and her picture was still up there.
Jason Derulo is absolutely right.
What are they going to do to fix this?
We can't allow a lot of type of discrimination to happen.
Well, you guys need to write some letters and be like,
we want this Jason Derulo picture back.
No, I just think that it should be official.
I'm not going that far.
I don't like to double stand.
Exactly.
If you can be on social media with your nipples hard,
you should be able to be on social media with your penis hard.
Yeah, you should.
I guess.
All right.
Now, let's talk about.
I want more from your meat.
Was that all you?
That's the next sit down.
I spoke to Jay Driller.
He actually mentioned me in a song one time.
What song?
What did he say?
I forgot what the name of the record was.
He said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said, he said something like Charlamagne. I forgot what the name of the record was. He said something like Charlamagne.
I forgot what record that was.
But he said something like Charlamagne.
That penis will do that to you, man.
All right.
Because it's all about me.
Kid Rock, actually, if you guys recall, he had an issue with Oprah.
And remember, he did this rant on stage.
Now, that's when you need a documentary.
Get him, Oprah.
Stop this.
Go get him. Here it is's when you need a documentary. Get him over. Stop this. Go get him.
Here it is.
I'm not a bad man.
I'm just an honest guy that says, hey, I'm like Oprah Winfrey or Troy Payne Hart.
I think it's some s*** sideways.
F*** Oprah Winfrey.
He's racist.
Look at him.
He's black belt.
That was at his own bar. He said he was racist. He's racist. Look at him. He's not racist. That was at his own bar.
He said he was racist.
He's racist.
Well, you know what?
Since then, you guys know he has this restaurant,
Made in America at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit.
Well, guess what?
That has not been renewed.
So that restaurant will be gone in April.
After this happened.
Fast, boy.
Now, Kid Rock elaborated on his tweet in a Facebook post.
He said, I will not be renewing my licensing agreement for my made in Detroit restaurant this April.
I appreciate all who have patronized our place and still have much love for the city of Detroit and the people, organizations that I've helped there for years, black, white, whatever.
But learn long ago, go where you're celebrated, not tolerated.
Drop on the clues bomb for Oprah Winfrey.
You must not know the power that Oprah Winfrey has and possesses.
I guess the millions of dollars I pumped into that town was not enough.
No.
Your money is nothing compared to Oprah's.
I will let the National Action Network and others go ahead and take the wheel now.
Good luck.
The National Action Network?
Yeah, I guess he is.
That's a black organization.
Yes.
I guess he's saying they had issues with him, so he's like, y'all take the wheel now.
Oh, Oprah got a shutdown and gave it to a black organization?
Drop on the clues bomb for Oprah.
No, no, no.
Oprah, get busy.
Yes, Oprah.
Big O.
They don't have the restaurant.
Nah, my story's better.
Oprah Winfrey shut him down, store down, and gave it to a black organization.
Yes.
It's going to be a soul food restaurant now.
Made in Africa.
Then he said, P.S., hey, Al Sharpton, you or your cronies will never beat me, you tax-evading, race-evading clown.
Trump 2020. You got beat already. Kid Rock, you or your cronies will never beat me, you tax evading, race abating clown. Trump 2020.
You got beat already.
Kid Rock.
Kid Rock, you're out of here.
Don't get mad because Oprah took your restaurant and gave it to the National Action Network.
It's not true.
There's going to be pictures of Reverend Al Sharpton everywhere.
All over there.
All right?
All right.
I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report.
You got to love Oprah, man.
All right.
Salamate.
Yes.
Who are you giving that down to?
This is a guy named Tim Ryan who right. Salamite. Yes. Who you giving that donkey to?
This is a guy named Tim Ryan who doesn't understand black excellence.
Okay. He needs to come to the Ferdinand congregation.
He's a radio analyst.
We'd like to have a word with him.
All right.
We'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
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 it with the heel.
Did she get donkey in the name, please tell me.
Absolutely.
I have become donkey of the day.
That's a breakfast club, bitches.
You're a donkey.
Yeah, it's Donkey of the Day for Thursday, December 5th.
Goes to a radio analyst in San Francisco named Tim Ryan.
Now, it's always hard to give any type of media personality donkey of the day
because if you talk for a living,
eventually you're going to say something that offends people.
You're going to say something that's going to piss people off.
You're going to say something that people find strange.
But that's what makes for good radio, right?
I personally want everyone to be their true authentic selves
when they're on the radio,
and I want them to tell me what they think and nothing else.
And that's exactly what Tim Ryan did
when he made comments about Baltimore Ravens quarterback
Lamar Jackson on a radio show Monday.
But you know what I always say about free speech.
You can say what you want, but you know you are not exempt from the consequences of said
free speech.
OK, Tim Ryan was on KNBR in San Francisco and he was speaking on Lamar Jackson being
really good at the fake in football.
And this white man, he is white, Tim Ryan.
He has reasoning as to why he thinks Lamar Jackson is so good at the fake.
Can we hear it, please?
He's really good at that fake, Lamar Jackson.
But when you consider when his dark skin color with a dark football
with a dark uniform, you could not see that thing.
I mean, you literally could not see
when he was in and out of the match point.
Excuse me?
What'd he say?
Yo, man. Steve!
Steve, our cameraman, is a fool.
He's over there shrugging like,
I ain't got a point.
No! Listen, we from the
hood, we've all made dark-skinned jokes like this amongst each other as a culture.
I mean, your mama's so black she was riding a motorcycle and got a ticket for 10 of windows.
We've told a dark-skinned person, go in the room, turn the lights off, and close your eyes.
No one will see you.
But here's the thing.
I'm black, and those are jokes, okay?
Tim Ryan is white, and he's dead serious.
He thinks that Lamar Jackson is good at the fake because the ball, which isn't even the complexion of a black king,
is the same color as his uniform, okay?
Tim's exact words was dark skin color, dark football, dark uniform.
The Ravens' jerseys are purple,
which is another joke we would use on dark skin brothers and sisters
when we were kids, and that's you're so black you're purple.
Blurple is what we would call it.
Can we hear that one more time?
Let's just hear it one more time.
He's really good at that fake, Mark Jackson.
But when you consider when his dark skin color with a dark football,
with a dark uniform, you could not see that thing.
I mean, you literally could not see when he was in and out of the mesh point.
The jersey was black when they played the 49ers.
Even still, purple, black, whatever.
Okay, last time that I checked, word to Nipsey Hussle,
the NFL consisted of 70% black players.
All right, the Ravens are not the only team with dark uniforms.
Why aren't black players on the Oakland Raiders good at the fake?
Why aren't the Pittsburgh Steelers black players good at the fake?
Why aren't the New Orleans Saints players good at the fake?
All their uniforms are black.
Tim Ryan, this is why you have to measure twice to cut once.
You called into KNBR.
So that means you gave this some thought.
I could tell when you was talking, you even hesitated a little
because you had thought about it and you was like,
should I say this out loud?
Before you said it, you had to know before that left your mouth
that wasn't something you should say.
It is amazing to me that white people still don't understand black excellence.
Like, Tim, if this was a game of hot potato, you would be warm because you're close, okay?
Lamar Jackson's skin color does have something to do with why he's so good at the fake.
Because those extraordinary abilities you see that you can't explain, they come from that melanin.
All right, as I told you in my first New York Times bestselling book, being black is indeed a privilege.
It's an honor.
This melanin is magical, and some things just can't be explained.
And when you try to explain and give credit to anything else
other than just pure black excellence,
you end up sounding like you sounded.
Please let Kathy Griffin give Tim Ryan the biggest hee-haw.
Please give this giant jar of mayo the biggest hee-haw? Please give this giant jar of mayo the biggest hee-haw.
I'm mad that he shares the same name as my man
Tim Ryan, who's a congressman
in Ohio. Drop on the clues box for my man Tim Ryan.
That's a good white guy
right there. Alright.
Thank you for that donkey. Today, now, when we come back,
ask... Stephen, what's on your mind?
What's on your mind?
Don't do it, Steve.
You want to measure twice to cut one, Steve?
If you feel like you shouldn't say it, don't do it.
You're turning red.
You're turning red, Steve.
Say it.
You want to say it?
You want to say it?
All right.
Let's see if you...
Measure twice to cut one, Steve.
Think about it.
Christmas is right around the corner.
It's just going to be you and your dog.
He looks like he's good at faking.
Okay.
All right.
All right.
That's why white people are so good at hockey.
Why are white people so good at hockey?
Because of the ice, right?
Because what?
Okay.
Okay.
All right, Steve.
Steve said white people are so good at hockey.
Don't do it.
My God versus my enemies.
No.
Ice and white.
It's not two different types of whites.
I don't know where Steve's going, but anyway.
No, no, no.
Don't do it.
Ask Yee.
800.
He definitely said to himself.
I'm just trying to lift Steve up as much as I can.
I hate a broken white man.
It depresses me.
Ask Yee is next.
You got a question for Yee.
Call her now.
It's The Breakfast Club.

The Breakfast Club.
Get some real advice with Angela Yee.
It's Ask Yee.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's time for Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
This is Jontae.
How y'all doing this morning?
Good morning.
What's your question for Yee?
My grandfather just passed in July.
He was the man of my life.
He held down the family for two generations now.
We had a house and a family for three generations.
And unfortunately, his children are not the best children.
My mom and my two uncles.
My mom's a pushover.
My uncles are bums.
They live in the house.
And because they broke and refused to get a job, they now want to sell the house. And I want to keep the house and because they broke and refused to get a job they now want to sell the house
and I want to keep the house in the family
so I offered to
get a loan to become
their landlord so they could keep the house
but they refused to do that because they don't want to split it
four ways. So do you have
any advice for me?
Otherwise I probably won't have a family after this
because I'll be done with them.
Well yeah I mean you know what, Jante?
I think your solution would have been great
but obviously they're not into that
and you don't really have,
they're the ones that the house got left to,
not you, right?
Technically, yes.
Yeah, so.
Technically my mom, but again, she's a pushover, so.
So she's a pushover for them.
You need to be talking to your mom then
and not to your uncles.
I talked to her.
We don't have the best relationship.
She hung up on me last week
and we haven't talked since.
How much do they want to,
so what you need to figure out is
A, how much do they want
to sell the house for?
And B, how much would they sell
the house to you for?
And then if they sell the house to you
and you decide that
because you want to keep it,
is there a way that you can get a loan
to buy the whole house?
Yes.
I could get a loan to buy the house,
but they're gentrifying in that area right
now. So, what area?
It goes for like two or three homes.
What area? East Nashville.
East Nashville. Okay. Because what might be
a good idea for you is to
see if they'll at least sell the house to
you for a
lower price without having to deal with the realtor, without
having to put it on the market so there's no competition
where you're not bidding against somebody else.
And that might be the solution.
Would you want to live in the house yourself?
I didn't want to live in a house until I fixed it up because there's only two bedrooms, one
bath, and I have two children.
But if I have to just to keep my childhood home, I absolutely would because my grandparents
raised me.
Okay.
So I have no problem sacrificing.
Would you be willing to buy the house and then rent it out also
if you don't want to live there?
Absolutely.
Okay.
So let's see if you can get a loan
and buy the whole house
and see if they'll at least compromise
as far as selling the house to you
but not putting it on the market,
not having to pay all those fees to a realtor
and letting you get a loan from the bank
and just pay them out.
I think that might be the only solution
because I'm not going to lie to you,
you might be really annoyed
if you try to go in with them and they're still
living there because I feel like
they won't even pay you the money they're supposed to pay you.
Or... They probably not. And that's
a part of the problem. What you do is
you create an LLC, right?
Okay. And you create an LLC, call
it whatever you want, and then you make an offer
so they don't even have to know that you're actually buying
the house. And you just buy the house.
So that way they can never be like, well, let me live here a little longer
or you have problems getting your family members out.
But if it's in the LLC, it won't be in your name and nobody will know
and you just make them an offer.
And like he said, there'll be no real estate agent.
You don't have to pay no realtor fees.
There'll be none of that.
You just buy it straight and keep it moving.
I'm going to look into that.
I appreciate that.
Thanks, y'all.
All right.
But yeah, I don't think that you should go in on it with
them because I don't feel like they seem like the type
of people who would keep up their end of the bargain.
And Nashville's a booming market. I keep hearing about
Nashville's a booming market, so definitely hold it.
It is. And it'll be worth a lot more
later on if you could keep it. It is.
That is what I tried to tell them.
So, okay, I'll look into the LLC
because I definitely want to put them out. They're 55
years old. They're like that.
Make sure they have them. Just don to put them out. They're 55 years old. They're like that. Well, make sure they have them.
Just don't put them out on their ass, though.
That's still family.
If they find out that she went behind their back and snuck into the LLC and bought it,
that might cause issues, too.
Her mom hung up on her last week.
We already have issues.
There you go.
I ain't worried about that.
Okay, all right.
I want to keep these house for my grandparents.
There you go.
That's fine.
Thanks, guys.
All right, ask Yee.
800-585-1051.
If you got a question for Yee, hit it now.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Come on, Mom.
Need relationship advice?
Need personal advice?
Just need real advice.
Call up now for Ask Yee.
Eat the bread.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask Yee, and we have Samantha on the line. Samantha, good morning.
Hey, good morning.
What's your question for Yee now, Mama?
So, my question is, women
who work for corporate companies,
how do you
get promoted
without, especially
when you have male
bosses and
things go on on the job and you can't fix it.
Okay, so Samantha, I know you and I spoke offline, right?
So just give us some information.
You don't have to say your company or anything, but talk about specifically what's been going on with you because I know a lot of women can relate.
So I started working at a company, a corporate company, five years ago.
Almost six years.
In 2020, it'll be six years.
When I started working there, I started working for $10 an hour.
And that was it.
Then four years later, I don't make much more than that I make about a couple more dollars
than that ten dollars an hour um not much my boss got flirtatious with me and this was four years
ago he got flirtatious with me and I didn't know how to handle it I just just, I froze. I froze because it never happened to me. And ever since then,
I've never got promoted. They brought in an outsider. And she got promoted before you,
even though she had no experience. No experience, no experience at all. She came from just a
whole new employee. And just to add another layer to this, Samantha,
you said that your boss had been basically
proposing to actually have sexual relations with you.
And dinner.
And you actually have audio recordings of it.
Yes, and that's the thing.
In New York, it's illegal to record somebody
without their consent.
And he knows that.
Right.
Because in order for me to get him to back off,
when I say persistent, I mean he was really persistent.
Do you have text messages or emails from him?
No, but I have the audio.
Okay, here's what I would say to you,
because I actually spoke with an attorney yesterday for you.
That's amazing. I told him what you said about the recordings and how he told you that you couldn't use those recordings because it wouldn't be admissible in court so you have nothing right
but in fact you haven't actually consulted with an attorney I I'd never let me um explain why I
didn't do it they told me I I was going to get promoted, right?
Now, Angela, I've been with this company.
I missed my daughter's.
I missed a lot of stuff for my daughter.
Right, to work.
Yeah, my daughter's 10.
I missed multiple birthdays.
And you're mandated to work for this company on the weekend.
It's crazy, and they're corporate. work for this company on the weekend it's crazy and they're corporate i try to go to hr now samantha i want to keep it oh so what happened when you went to hr i'm sorry i didn't mean to cut you off go ahead no that's that's
good um when i went to hr they also told me they what they said is they can move me to another
department which they did at that point right so then I started to work in the office which entailed the same situation they never
promoted me I have my time sheets I had them um this year this year I left the company
okay the reason why I left the company um is because I wanted my time sheets just in case I ever
was going to take this to an attorney.
But I really thought I had no case because on recording he's telling me, he's like, oh,
don't worry.
I know you're with this.
I'm with an African-American guy, as I told you in the Instagram.
And he said, oh, that's
just a phase. Let me take
you out. He was so persistent.
And it was scary.
Right. And this is what
I want you to understand. I never
want you to feel powerless. Like, you
can't do anything. And he's trying to make you feel that
way. Like, I have diary
entries. I came home and
wrote in my diary just to like deflate from this stuff
and it's so scary because you you give a lot of your time to a company you're a woman you work for
a very a big radio station let's just say company right so you work for them for a long time and
they respect you all right late you're not You're not absent. You're not disrespectful.
You have no write-ups. I have no
write-ups in my file. Samantha,
I feel like you 1,000% have
a case. I definitely feel like
you need to speak with an attorney and I am going to get
you on with my friend Jamal Murphy
who is an attorney so that he can
let you know what it is that you can do to move forward
so that you can actually
do this because who knows what other women he's doing this to as well so no he's done it to a lot of women because
he's he's had relationships with women and that's how i found out that i'm not the only person
and i'm not the only person that goes to this but i couldn't believe that hr did that too like the
it's like they all work together.
And you did actually put in a request and they did move you to another department.
So that is sort of them acknowledging
that they know that there's an issue there.
And that's something they should have.
The department they moved me to
was next door to his office.
It was even closer to the general manager office.
All right.
So Samantha, we're going to take this offline now because you
did reach out to me via Instagram
and I did have some conversations for you.
So what I will do is hook you
up with him so you guys can talk and we can
figure out how you can move forward.
And I want you to know that you do have power,
that you can indeed
report this, that you were being
harassed, that you have these audio
recordings and while you may not be able to use them in court,
it is good that you have other things that
happen and that you went to HR and
all of that and that there are other women who may
want to actually speak up as
well. So I have your
information and I will hit you up later
today. Thank you very much.
Okay, you're welcome, Samantha. Thank you
so much for it. You guys are awesome. Thank
you. Thanks for having the courage
to share your story with us. Good luck, okay?
Yes, thank you.
Alright, ask Yee.
800-585-1051 if you need
relationship advice or any type of advice.
Hit Yee now. Now, we got rumors on the way, Yee?
Yes, let's talk about Justin Bieber.
He has apologized. Actually, there's two Justins
apologizing. Justin Bieber and
Justin Timberlake.
Two completely different situations, but we'll tell you what it's about.
All right, we'll get into that next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
She's spilling the tea.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
So you guys saw there were some pictures of Justin Timberlake holding hands with another woman.
That woman is Alicia Wainwright, who's his co-star in his upcoming movie Palmer.
They were in New Orleans filming.
And he just recently apologized to his wife, Jessica Biel, for that. He said on Instagram, I stay away from gossip as much as I can, but for my family, I feel it's important to address recent rumors that are hurting the people I love.
A few weeks ago, I displayed a strong lapse in judgment, but let me be clear.
Nothing happened between me and my co-star.
I drank way too much that night, and I regret my behavior.
I should have known better.
This is not the example I want to set for my son.
I apologize to my amazing wife and family for putting them through such an embarrassing situation and am focused on being the best husband and father I can be.
This was not that.
I am incredibly proud to be working on Palmer.
Looking forward to continuing to make this movie and excited for people to see it.
Well, guess what?
Black men don't cheat, but white men do.
So anybody out there that ever said Justin Timberlake was black because he sings black music
and he can dance like a black person, this shows that he is not black.
So they weren't taping.
They were leaving the bar after taping.
They were at a restaurant, holding hands under the table.
Salute to my guy, Justin Timberlake.
He said holding hands over the table?
Under. Like their hands were like, you know, at the side.
Who caught that? It was on camera.
You know, paparazzi. It's Justin Timberlake.
I don't have nothing to do with white men's infidelity.
Justin Bieber has also apologized. He has
expressed regret for his past use
of racial slurs.
He put on an Instagram post, I'm determined this holiday season to take ownership of all my shortcomings and work on them for myself and the ones I love.
What is your goal? And then he posted a message that said, stand against racism.
If you recall, this is what he's referencing.
One less lonely nigga. One less lonely nigga.
There's gonna be one less nigga.
Then he said, when I was young,
I was uneducated and found myself saying really hurtful
things not knowing the power of my words.
Racism is still very prevalent and I want
to use my voice to remind we are all human
beings and all of equal value before God.
That's crazy because that's been out.
Yeah, he was 15.
So why is he apologizing for it now?
I guess he just felt like doing that.
He's gotten very religious and he says he takes his friendships with people of all cultures very seriously.
And why not?
Maybe he just felt moved to do that.
Do white people get canceled for using the N-word?
Seriously, it's all serious questions.
Like if he said that, is there going to be anything other than some social media outrage?
Well, I think if he said it today. It's not going to affect than some social media outrage? Well, I think if he said it today.
It's not going to affect him in the real world.
He might get canceled if he said it now.
But I think you have to take accountability.
When he was 15, he said something he shouldn't have said,
and he acknowledged that he shouldn't have done that.
Will it affect him outside of social media?
That's my question.
No, I don't think so.
I don't think you should try it, though.
I don't think so.
I mean, it's already out there.
No, I'm talking about now he shouldn't do it.
Oh, now, yeah, of course.
You know better now.
All right, now, Hillary Clinton, she was on with Howard Stern.
And, you know, people are saying that she might be running for president in 2020.
Now, the reason they're saying this is prior to doing Howard Stern,
she did an appearance on the UK's Graham Norton Show, and she said this.
And where are you?
Are you saying, forget me?
Is that your mantra now?
Not yet.
Because the rumor mill is flying
that you could step back into the ring.
Yeah, I hear that.
I especially have been deluged in the last few weeks
with thinking about doing that.
But right now, I'm not at all planning that.
I'd have to make up my mind really quickly.
She going to try again for the third time?
Well, we don't know that for sure.
Why are you saying it like that?
Joe Biden trying again for the third time?
Why can't Hillary?
This is Joe Biden's third time running for president.
Jeez.
Exactly.
Yeah, what's wrong with her?
All right, so while she was on...
I love women.
I love women.
But she did talk about...
She did talk about how she did feel like misogyny played a large part in her losing.
Now, in other things that she said on Howard Stern's show,
she talked about the inauguration day and how that was one of the hardest days for her.
You know, I went to the inauguration of Donald Trump, which was one of the hardest days of my
life, to be honest. I am consumed with that. Here's how I felt about it. I mean, obviously,
I was crushed. I was disappointed. And I was really surprised because I couldn't figure out
what had happened. I said to myself, I said to everybody who talked to me about it, look,
I hope he's going to be a better president than I think he will be.
I'm worried about it, but I'm going to do everything I can.
As I told him when I called him, you know, that terrible night.
Oh, you did call him?
Oh, I did.
I have to go listen to that interview.
I haven't heard it yet.
Yeah, it's a nice interview.
You know, she talks about things like he asked her about the rumors of her being a lesbian and, you know, her first date with Bill Clinton, who she
dated before Bill Clinton. A lot of
different things that they discussed
in this interview. Howard Stern. Howard Stern
said he really had wanted her on the show and he used to
beg for her to come on the show because he felt like
it would have been great for her to be on
before the 2016 elections.
It would have helped her out a lot.
I mean, let's be clear. Hillary Clinton
had four million more of the popular
vote than Donald Trump.
So it's not like people didn't go out and vote
for Hillary. It's just that goddamn electoral college.
Now, she also says that she did go to
couples therapy, but that's the only therapy
she's ever been to, just marriage counseling.
And, you know,
a lot of different things she discussed.
So make sure you check that out.
I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Rumor Report.
All right.
Thank you, Miss Yee.

Now Charlamagne, I seen you were out at Tiffany Haddish's
birthday party. How was that?
You know what man, Tiffany Haddish's
birthday party was a little stressful.
I had fun. You know, my sis turned 40
but, you know, it's stressful
because, and I'm just being honest,
I had to really watch my woman in that party.
Not because of anything that
I think she would do.
It's just that there's a lot of
women in there hitting on my sister, my
wife.
You had Shantae Wayans in there
telling me how good my wife looked.
Wanda Sykes was really
who I was worried about. I thought Wanda Sykes was trying who I was worried about. Really? I thought Wanda Sykes
was trying to take my... H-U?
She went to Howard? She went to Hampton. Oh, she went to
Hampton. Okay. But yeah, it was just
one of those parties. That was disrespectful. I was just like, she went to Hampton.
No, he thought it was Howard.
Because I said H-U. I don't know. I didn't go to college.
I was just looking at it. I was just like, damn.
There's a lot of women in here I felt like was hitting on my wife.
You know what I'm saying? So I was a little
stressed out behind that. But other than that, I had a great time. A little insecure? Salute to Wanda Sykes, too. Wanda wants to come hitting on my wife. You know what I'm saying? So I was a little stressed out behind that but other than that
I had a great time.
A little insecure?
Salute to Wanda Sykes too.
Wanda wants to come
on The Breakfast Club.
You know what I mean?
And I do not know
why Wanda Sykes
has never been here.
Yeah, I love her stand-ups.
Yeah, I'm like,
why has Wanda Sykes
never been on The Breakfast Club?
She was supposed to come
on vacation
but she was supposed
to come on vacation
a while ago.
She was?
Yeah.
Okay.
