Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast
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.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,

studies human behavior. Many of us have experienced a moment in our lives that changes everything,
that instantly divides our life into a before and an after. On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I talk to people about navigating these moments.
Their stories are full of candor and hard-won wisdom.
And you'll hear from scientists who teach us
how we can be more resilient in the face of change.
Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,

The one and only.
I get more nervous in this room than anywhere else.
It's on your radio right now. Do you know how to pop that coochie for a good one? There you go. It's the world's most dangerous morning show. The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Good morning, USA.
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.

That's right. What's it, 22 years? No. Hold on. Pretty close. 15. Okay. 15 years.
Does she know about
the surprise unicorn
you got her?
No, she doesn't know,
but you just told her.
Oh.
Happy anniversary, baby.
You got a surprise unicorn
and then lubed the horn
of the unicorn.
What's in your mouth, though?
That's the real question.
A unicorn horn.
Now, on today's show,
we have comedian Dion Cole.
Talk to us about Dion.
Now, I know you probably
don't know Dion Cole. Charlie from Black-ish. Now, I know you probably don't know Dion Cole.
Charlie from Black-ish. Right. Oh, okay.
Alright, Anthony Anderson's black friend at the job.
Alright? Smart guy. Good, funny
guy. And he's on the show Angie Tribeca
also. Yes. Okay.
We also have our resident sexologist, Angela
Yee's best buddy, Michelle Hope.
Michelle Hope. She helps me actually
with a lot of things that I have questions
about. And she's made me realize certain you know know, I'm not even going to say that.
I'm going to say certain diseases aren't as bad as they seem, but.
What?
I don't know.
It's weird.
Why are y'all having a conversation about certain diseases not being as bad as they seem?
Because we were just talking about certain things.
And, you know, in your head, you're like, oh, my God, that person has herpes.
I would never.
What?
Yes, you should never. But then she says, you're like, oh my God, that person has herpes. I would never. What? Yes, you should never. But then she
says, you know what? The thing about
herpes is some people could have it and never
ever have an outbreak in life. And she
said you could have an outbreak one time and never
get it again. And I didn't know that.
I think that when it comes to that, you need to go seek a
second opinion. I don't think Michelle
knows what she's talking about when it comes to that. It is true.
But we're going to talk to her in a little bit.
Alright, now, shout out to our newest family member,

Just hope you can fight if you say that, though.
I'm not worried about it.
Okay.
It's a second job.
It's a part-time job.
All right.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's good?
This is Mike.
Mike, tell them why you mad.
Yo, I'm at a job, man.
Every time I got some ish, every day I call y'all.
Y'all know I put my ish on the radio, man.
Well, here you go.
It's supposed to be the world's most dangerous radio.
Why would we want to put ish on the radio?
What you mean?
Tell them why you mad. I don't see...
I don't know why it's a place for feces on the radio.
Well, tell them why you mad, man. Go ahead. Hurry up.
I ain't mad, man. I'm just saying. Oh, my gosh.
You just wasted your tell them why you mad for nothing.
Exactly. Exactly.
Hey, Yee. Hey, Yee. Yes?
I love you.
I love you, too. I love you, too, baby.

That ain't me talking, so you ain't heard me.
Hello, who's this?
This is Mr. Clemens calling.
Hey, what's up, bro?
Tell him why you mad.
I'm mad because we're dropping signs and left and right.
All this stuff's happening in the world.
Nobody can understand it.
What do I got to write it out for you guys?
Come on.
You want me to elaborate?
Yeah, write it out.
Elaborate, go ahead.
Plane crashes, you got this, you got that.
And lack of better words, you know what I mean? I don't need to elaborate? Yeah, write it out. Elaborate, go ahead. Clean crashes, you got this, you got that. And lack of better words, you know what I mean?
I don't need to elaborate on that.
See, just me talking about it's getting me amped up.
I'm all pissed off.
Yo, drop one of Clues bombs for this modern-day Nostradamus we have.
You know what I'm saying?
Nostradamus was actually a predicting world event.
His brother here said, we got this, we got that,
and we need to look out for this shit that's coming.
I'm with you, my brother.
All right, my bro.
One time for this new Nostradamus.
One time, one time.
You know how to reach me, right?
Nope.
I don't care how to reach you.
Hello, who's this?
Amazing.
This is Tad, Cincinnati.
Hey, tell them why you mad.
I'm mad because every morning on my way into work,
I lose the station that plays y'all's show.
The closer I get to this area called Blue Ash I work in,
it's gone. And I'm trying to tell my coworkers to listen, and they Ash I work in, it's gone.
And I'm trying to tell my coworkers to listen, and they're like, what, this country station?
Well, you know you could also listen on the app.
Yeah, just turn on the iHeartRadio app, and you won't lose us at all.
That's what I do once I actually get in, but it's a small delay.
So by the time I want to call and tell y'all why I'm mad, y'all already on rumors.
And you said it's a town called Blue Ash?
Yes.
So it's a bunch of dark-skinned, ashy people
there. A bunch of people so
black they almost blue. And they're
ashy. Well, I'm
here and I'm, you know, nice and chocolate
so I think I'm like... So you're
ashy, just not blue ashy.
Not that ashy.
You have a good morning in the blue ash, mama.
Oh, yeah.
Hello, who's this?
Tell them why you're mad, mama. Oh, yeah. Hello, who's this? Man, this is Sonny, man.
Tell him why you mad, Sonny.
Birdman?
No, man, I say Sonny, man.
Sonny Black, man.
Free Cardell, man.
Why should we free Cardell?
Because it was self-defense.
If somebody tell you, look, stand up, matter of fact,
the issue that happened on White Man Can't Jump.
Did you just bring it to White Man Can't Jump?
The movie?
I like movie references. Go ahead.
I like movie references. Go ahead.
Somebody tell you, say,
bro, wait till I come back. I got something for you.
You gonna stand right there and wait till you come back?
Come on. Hey, hey, hey.
That man let that thing go. You can't be mad
at him because he let it go? Yes, I can.
Because the police use this same logic
all the time. I felt threatened.
I felt like he may have had something.
So I killed him.
And they get off all the time.
And they get off all the time.
So where can I get off?
All right, you're right.
I ain't clogging you.
No, you're right about that.
You're right.
Tell them why you're mad.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent.
Call us right now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Hey morning. The Breakfast Club.
Hey, hey, hey, yo.
Hey, yo, good morning, yo.
This is the Mad Rapper, son, for real.
I'm mad and I stay mad.
I stay angry.
I stay heated.
I stay pissed off.
Tell them why you mad.
Breakfast Club, let's go.
What's up?
It's RJ from Toledo, Ohio.
RJ, tell them why you mad, bro.
I am mad at Josh Gordon.
He cannot pass the drug test.
It's hard being a Browns fan.
Damn it, man.
All right.
Guess what?
What?
This year's our year.
No, it's not.
Oh, gosh.
No, it's not.
Hello, who's this?
Hello, this is Christine from Houston.
Hey, Christine.
Tell them why you mad.
Okay, so my homegirl tried to hook me up with her boyfriend's friend.
He walks in and he looks like Rick Ross.
I'm like, okay, you know,
who the hell is a Rick Ross fetish?
Well, he come in, we get to talking, he sit down.
Why he break my couch? Breaks my
couch and feel like he don't need to pay it,
but he still want to ask me out.
I'm like, are you serious? Like, really, dude,
you need to pay for my couch? I'm really thinking
about taking his ass to Judge Matthews or something.
And you should have told him that Rick Ross ain't fat no more,
so you don't look like Rick Ross no more.
Well, he was the old one.
Something's going on, and I'm in need of my couch replaced.
But then you're going to call me and tell me what I found you a couch.
You want to give me a random couch.
Like, are you serious?
Now, what kind of couch was it?
Now, maybe your couch was on his last legs already.
Sound like a cheap couch.
But you know what?
It was on all four legs, but your fat ass sat down,
so it don't even matter.
You need to replace it.
Thank you, mama.
Hello, who's this?
I'm mad because I'm mad at you guys, Envy and Angela Lee and Charlamagne,
because y'all don't never answer the phone when I call.
We just answered the phone.
I know, so you can't be mad anymore.
You got it.
You got it.
Yeah, you got it.
You got it.
But Harry's coming on the 29th.
I really don't know how to feel about that.
Yeah.
Because you still got the Caucasian man in the back of it.
So what?
So it's like we really didn't accomplish anything.
But I guess the thought is what makes it different than not doing anything at all.
But that's just to be quiet for a minute.
You know, Charlamagne is the ignorant person that talks.
But he tells the truth.
It's just the way he says it that jacks it up. But he tells the truth. You know, it's just the way he say it that jacks it up.
You know, but he tell the truth. Oh, wow.
It's his delivery.
It's his delivery.
Yeah, it's the delivery.
That's what it is.
But he keep it real, though.
God working on me.
He keep it real.
God working on me.
Hey, amen.
And I'm going to say a prayer for you, brother.
Y'all have a great weekend.
You too, man, mama.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, it's your boy Rick Williams, man, representing New Orleans
504,
man.
I'm mad as hell
this morning.
Why are you mad,
bro?
I'm mad about a few
things that happened
over the weekend,
but you know,
I want to get to this.
I got,

I got to get this.
I got to get this, man.
I got to take care of radio, man.
I'm a girlfriend.
I have for her girls.
I have for free tickets.
I'm mad as hell, man.
I got to pay for them, man.
Well, that's your fault.
That's your fault because, you know, I don't want to stop.
I don't want to stop nobody from getting their money.
But you know what Chief Keef represents.
He represents a lot of crime.
I know, man.
He's a super predator.
That rider, man. That rider is crazy,
man. I gotta get F security.
I gotta get that, man. I gotta get this.
I gotta get these. Well, put it like this. You think about it like this.
You'll make your money back, right?
Oh, yeah. I'm doing good. All right. Then don't worry
about that. Don't worry about that. It comes with the
territory. You gotta work a little bit. You'll make your money.
You'll make your money back. Somebody will get shot in the
club. It'll probably be a fighter, too, but it's all right.
I don't say that, Sean. I don't say that, man.
I need a good day, a good night, man.
Well, let's hope he shows up.
Yeah, man.
You know what kind of energy you're investing in.

You know what makes me mad?
When people ask for the truth but can't handle the truth.
Now tell them why you mad on The Breakfast Club, bitches.
It'll be a good night, man.
Don't worry about it.
Hello, who's this?
This is MC Sniper.
I'm just calling to find out how do I watch you guys live, man?
I don't even know how to watch you guys or anything.

I'm at Maine right now.
Maine. Revolt TV. You got Revolt on, bro. I'm at 9 right now. Maine.
Revolt TV.
You got Revolt on your TV?
I don't think we on in Maine yet.
What kind of cable do you have?
I don't even have cable.
I just use internet.
All right, well,
then you need to use
the iHeartRadio app
and you can listen live.
Okay, the iHeartRadio app.
Okay, gotcha.
I'll call and make some comments
when I get on.
All right, we can't wait.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, this is Johnny, man.
Calling from Charlotte.
Johnny, Charlotte. Tell them where you're at, bro. I get on. All right, we can't wait. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Johnny, man. Calling from Charlotte. Johnny, Charlotte.
Tell them why you mad, bro.
I'm sorry.
Yo, I was about to slip up and cuss, but...
Hold on.
You got a sexy voice this morning.
Is this how you always talk?
Yeah, this is my real voice.
Don't gas him, man.
You got a more hype and stuff.
Call him with your quiet, strong voice.
What you want, man?
Why you mad?
All right, boo, go ahead.
Nah, it's not like...
You giggle too much to have a deep voice, man. We're going to be on that weak stuff, though, go ahead. Nah, it's not like... You giggle too much to have a deep voice, man.
We're gonna be on that weak stuff, though, for real.
You giggle too much to have a deep voice like that, man.
It sounds like you woke up high with your thumb in your butt this morning.
That's what it sounds like.
Nah, it's not like...
I wake up listening to New York Larry in the morning.
And we appreciate that.
I don't have my thumb in my butt.
I just be taking my S-Wig.
Well, that's good to know.
We don't judge where you put your thumb, bro.
Nah, man.
It was like, um, and one more thing, though.
Madea on the Rock was, um, down here or whatever.
Oh, no, we didn't know that.
That was a play.
That's a play.
We didn't know that.
Madea on the Rock.
Madea on the Rock was down here, and they did a little tribute for Prince and everything.
Oh, that's nice.
So, you know, shout out to the Prince or whatever.
Did he say shout out to the Prince? You should have just requested an Angel of the Year song. I want to hear it back to sleep. Oh, that's nice. You know, shout out to the print or whatever. Did he say shout out to the print?
You should have just requested
an Angelina Jolie song.
I want to hear it back to sleep.
Oh my goodness.
Hello, who's this?
This is Mike.
Mike, tell them where you're at.
I'm selling one of my cars.
So I was on my way to take some pictures
by the beach on the parkway.
Okay.
Rolled up a nice little Marley,
a little two gram.
My girl called me and she starts complaining
that I'm out too early and what am I doing?
I posted a Snapchat driving.
You know how it gets crazy.
And I went to Ash and I dropped my Marley out the window and it completely ruined everything.
Why do you keep calling it a Marley?
Because you're on the radio, you think you can't say blunt or joint?
Yeah, I figured I couldn't say.
I could say blunt or joint.
You're not helping us out, but you could say blunt. Oh, that's very nice. Thank you for helping us out.
But you could say blunt.
You dropped your blunt on the highway.
Did you stop to go get it?
I pulled over, but when I pulled over, there's no emergency lane
because it's where the helicopters take pictures of you if you're speeding.
Well, I don't feel sorry for you because you shouldn't be smoking and driving anyway.
I don't know why people act like smoking and driving is okay.
You're still impaired, inebriated, under the influence, whatever.
Yes and no.
Some people disagree.
Some people say they drive better on it.
Yes, you are, man, regardless.
You are.
You're high in driving.
You're not supposed to be high in driving.
As far as the law is concerned, yes.
All right.
Well, I'm glad you're making it to your destination without being high, sir.
That was actually God taking that blunt from you, by the way.
Tell them why you mad.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent.
Call us right now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Hey, yo.
This is DMX.
You know what makes me mad?
When people ask for the truth but can't handle the truth.
Now tell them why you mad on The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, I'm Alann in Atlanta.
Hey, Alann, tell them why you mad.
I'm mad because I've been trying to get divorced for over a year,
and my husband won't move out of the house.
Oh, my goodness.
So, um, is the divorce taking a really long time for you two?
Like, it's not happening.
He doesn't want to get divorced.
Yeah.
He keeps stalling it.
And, um, he tells me he doesn't have enough money to move out of the house, but he's got
two girlfriends.
Oh my gosh.
Your boyfriend got, your husband got two girlfriends.
Yeah.
So why are you complicating this?
Just be the third.
You were the first.
So just be a part of the team.
Don't even listen to that.
So what are they saying in the court?
Well, I haven't managed to get there because his lawyer keeps stalling it and moving things back.
So I haven't managed to get there.
Why don't you bring your boyfriend to come live with you?
No, you can do that.
No, I don't even have one.
Let me ask you a question.
Why do you think you deserve better?
What?
Maybe you're in the position God wants you to be in.
Me?
Why are you giving up so easy?
You're just going to let two girls take your man?
Well, it's been over for a long time, but...
You got fat, didn't you?
Did you get fat?
No.
No, I didn't.
No.
What's your Facebook?
Why are you trying to make it seem like it's her fault that her husband's a cheater?
What's your Facebook?
Because I know you don't got no Instagram.
Oh, stop.
I do have Instagram.
What's your Instagram, boo?
Why?
I'm not going to tell you on the radio here.
I want to know what you look like.
She don't want you to know.
Tell him you look good.
That's all.
That's all he needs to know.
You look good.
Allegedly.
I do look good.
I do look good.
I'll tell you.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I think that you don't.
I don't think you should be a quitter.
I think you should listen to Lemonade album, you know what I'm saying?
And be as strong as Beyonce and forgive your man for any infidelities he may have done.
All right.
All right.
I'll trust what I can do.
Why do you encourage people to be quitters?
Now, tell them why you're mad.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent, you can call us.

It just blew up.
Y'all came up together, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Lil, no. It just blew up. Y'all came up together, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Lil Rel was, like, under me or whatever. I came up with, like, Corey Holcomb,
me, a couple other comics.
Yeah, we all came up together in Chicago.
But, yeah, Lil Rel was up under me. D-Ray was
up under me. I raised D-Ray.
And so, yeah, yeah.
It's amazing how you got started doing comedy.
Because a lot of people would be like, oh, you're funny. You should try stand-up.
Or a lot of people think they can do stand-up.
Yeah, absolutely.
Like, see, the thing about Chicago comics are we more like characters.
More than just comics.
You know, nowadays you can't just be funny.
You know, you got to be character within yourself and have your own identity.
You know what I'm saying?
Not like a gimmick where you're like, I'm hilarious Henry. You know what I mean? You don't want to be like that. You know what I'm saying? Not like a gimmick where you're like, I'm Hilarious Henry.
You know what I mean?
You don't want to be like that.
You know what I mean?
You just want to be your own guy.
Like, Busta Rhymes is his own guy.
You know what I mean?
Like, it's, you know, like that.
You're a mozzie.
I was growing up in Chicago, because Chicago's pretty rough.
How do you avoid not getting shot, especially always telling jokes?
Man, pimps.
Pimps used to be like, they used to be like, they used to give us passes.
Like, if they knew that you was in arts or you studied or whatever,
they'd be like, yo, yo, let him do his thing.
And they'd, like, leave you alone or whatever.
But my mother moved me from the city to the suburbs.
And I ended up fighting more out there.
Really?
Yeah, because it was all white out there and I was fighting more for racial equality
more than gangbanging fights.
The jokes weren't landing in the white neighborhood, huh?
Nah.
I wasn't even, you know, no joking stuff, man.
I was like, you know, I was real, very observant,
really chill.
I was a super chill dude, you know what I mean?
Did you start comedy on a dare for real?
Yeah, dude bet me like 50 bucks.
Told me to go on stage.
Were y'all in the club or y'all were hanging out?
Or you just was like...
No, we was watching, actually we was watching
Eddie Murphy's Delirious.
And my boy was like, I bet you can do that.
And I was like, nah, I can't do that.
I bet you $50.
I was like, alright, let's try it. $50, I $50. I was like, all right, let's try it.
$50, I can do it.
Yeah.
Y'all went to a comedy club or something?
Yeah, yeah.
It was a comedy club called All Jokes Aside in Chicago.
Yeah, we went down there.
How old were you?
22.
You remember any of the jokes we said?
Like, I mean, because you didn't have a set then.
Nah, I had this joke called, it was a Sunny Delight joke,
where it's like the white kid opened the refrigerator
and all his friends drank all their juice,
and I was like, that wouldn't be in the black neighborhood.
You had to drink out of a water hose or something like that.
I don't know.
It's probably funnier when you did it.
Yeah.
That's why it was my first joke.
I don't know about that.
All right, what's next? You've come a long way, Leon. All right. That was my first joke. Yeah. I don't know about that.
You've come a long way.
That was my first joke.
Did they boo you?
Did they boo you?
No, man, I did.
Man, my career took, when I first started, it was crazy.
I was like getting like standing ovations and people was loving me and everything I got on Def Jam like
Ten months after I started I was on Def Jam but I heard you got kicked off I was about to say what make you is what break you I got kicked off cuz I only had like 14 minutes of material
and I did seven on TV and then when he went on tour they asked me to do 25 and I
Was out there doing knock-knock jokes
and anything.
Anything to stretch the time, you know what I mean? But...
I know, I was.
Black man, white man, Chinese man.
Walk into a bar.
Yeah, yeah.
So I was like,
you know, but when they kicked me off,
that was the beginning of me writing, too.
I was like, yeah, I gotta start writing. So, hold on, so they kicked you off of Comedy Jam the beginning of me writing, too. I was like, yeah, I got to start writing.
So hold on.
So they kicked you off of Comedy Jam, but then I heard you went to go perform on Conan.
Yeah, yeah.
So you took those seven minutes to Conan?
No.
So after that, I started writing and writing and writing and writing.
And then they asked me to go on Conan and do some time.
And I did like four and a half minutes on Conan.
And two weeks later, Conan came to me and was like, man, I want you to come start with me. Conan to do some time and I did like four and a half minutes on Conan and two
two weeks later Conan came to me it was like man I want you to come start with
me I'm gonna buy you out everything and I mean like we gonna take you out all
your contracts and you come start here and I'm like being the only black
African-American to write because they never had no black writers yeah so I'm
sitting up like okay what do you want me to write? And they was just like,
just come on board. So when I went over there,
you know, I almost left
because I knew I didn't fit in because there was
so many white writers and they all went to like
Brown University. They had Emmys
and all of that and didn't think I was
going to fit in. And I tried to write like them
and it just wasn't popping off. So
after a while, I just started thinking
of situations that we did clash on and started writing like that.
And then he was like, man, you should go out on stage and do it.
And they was bringing me out, and they was writing me in TV Guide
as, you know, next star and all this stuff.
And then Jay Leno happened.
What happened with Jay Leno?
After that and the Jay Leno situation happened it was like yo wait a minute like like
I'm thinking like yo we about to take off and Conan was like he was gonna leave and we was like
man so they banned him from TV and so I was like all right let me just go on the road again because
you know I'm just like man okay but I knew that I paved the way for a lot of black comedians to
have another avenue which is late night television.
And then they still weren't hiring black writers.
So I still was trying to keep that door open too.
But then all of a sudden, Conan wanted to go on tour
and he took me on tour with him.
We toured.
Next thing I know, I was nominated for two Emmys.
It worked.
It's not like the traditional route that people go.
There's never a traditional route.
Everybody paths different.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
But when you're sitting in the room with all these other writers
and you're like, okay, these are all white guys.
They went to Brown.
They went to all these schools for writing and all know each other.
That's definitely not traditionally what he was looking for.
Nah, nah. And he never said what he was looking for. Nah, nah.
And he never said what he was looking for.
He just was like, come on board.
So it got to the point where it was like
we're sitting in a room and they was trying to
write a joke about Andy,
the co-host Andy Richter, about him
going to Oktoberfest,
which is a German drinking day. I didn't
know what it was. And
they had to explain it to me. And I remember I was like, black people don't have no drinking day. I didn't know what it was. And they had to explain it to me.
And I remember I was like,
black people don't have no drinking day.
We need our own drinking day.
And they was like, write that up.
And I went and wrote it up.
And they was like, now go perform it on stage.
After they seen that dynamic happen with me and Conan,
where he's out of line with black culture in a sense,
it became like NBC was like, ah.
What's our drinking day?
Yeah, let go out there and explain.
No, what is it?
What is our drinking day?
Oh, what is our drinking day?
Oh, April 15th.
Why April 15th?

You wrote the Nick joke? No, no, for the White House.
No, I ain't writing that.
You told Barack a Nick joke.
No, I ain't writing that. No, no.
I just wrote one line.
It was one line that I wrote. When he did the
White House Correspondents, then I had to
think about LL Cool J that he did.
That was it, but yeah, we...
You can put that on the resume.
Yeah, that goes on the resume. You're damn right.
You're damn right I do.
All right, we got more
with Deon Cole
when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have Deon Cole
in the building now. Charlamagne?
I remember you said Steve Harvey told you that if you could
make an audience quiet, that's just as good as laughter.
That scared me. Nah, that's
real, though, because it shows that you're in control.
You know, you're in control, and you
can handle an audience. You know,
like, if I could sit there and
be like, hey, check this out.
Like that,
that means I can dictate where I want to go.
They listening.
Yeah, you know, and so it's just something that he taught me.
He was like, man, that's just as good as making, like, a whole audience laugh.
That's so true.
I went to a comedy show at Caroline's one time,
and one of the opening acts wasn't that great,
and when I tell you, everybody was just talking, eating,
all you heard was food.
Sports was clinking.
People having conversations.
That had to be the way.
I felt bad.
You should talk about Donnell Rollers like that.
It wasn't Donnell.
Shut up. It was Donnell.
Definitely not Donnell.
It was an opening act.
But I feel you on that because you can have people just listening,
waiting to hear what you're about to say, and they're so paying.
Because it is hard to get people to not talk to each other.
They're having drinks and ordering.
Yeah, if you can get them to be quiet, it's just as good
as making them laugh or whatever.
Because they're listening. Sometimes when you're laughing,
you're missing what I'm saying next.
So, you know, that's
just a good trait to have
and learn if you're doing stand-up.
Now, what was your worst show ever?
You had to have a battle.
Besides the first one, what was the bomb?
Ja Rule, Indianapolis.
You remember that clip.
Ja Rule booed you?
It was a brisk night.
I ain't even lying.
No, I went in and opened.
I was opening for Ja Rule
and I went out there and they just
was like booing me
and they were throwing like boring me.
And they were throwing stuff at me that shouldn't have been at rap concerts,
like golf balls and coat hangers, like a wooden coat hanger. I remember, so I was like, who got a wooden coat hanger here?
Then they was throwing concession stand drinks, not just like pops,
like cans with the concession joints.
Yeah.
The lids pop off.
And when they hit you, Jack,
you just be sticky.
You got to sit around.
What the hell did you say
that they got so mad?
Hi?
They wanted Ja Rule.
They wanted Ja Rule.
They don't,
they didn't care about
nothing I had to say.
And I was like,
I ain't leaving
until y'all listen to me.
Then all of a sudden I hear the promoter going, get your ass on stage.
And I was like, damn.
Had to leave.
And, man, yeah.
But I still remember that.
Like, it was just that time.
Have you been back there since?
Just for your ego?
No.
You traumatized?
I want to, but I just not, I have not been back there.
I just, you know, I just haven't been back there or whatever.
Has life changed since the sitcom?
Because when I say Deion Cole, people be like, who?
And I be like, Deion, you know Charlie from Black-ish.
Anthony Anderson, black friend of the job.
They like, oh yeah, he's funny as hell.
Yeah, no, absolutely.
Like, right now, it's a tripped out time, man.
I done went from zero to 60 because
I got like an audience that's
kind of like different. I still like my
Conan audience because I still do
bits on Conan or whatever. And I have another
show that I'm on called Angie Tribeca,
which is on TBS
written and produced by
Steve Carell and Nancy
Carell and Rashida Jones. Yeah, and Rashida Jones.
And we have a show on TBS and actually a new season coming up.
And with that and juggling Black-ish at the same time,
it was kind of difficult.
And coning, like doing coning bits like when I can or whatever.
Yeah, but it's changed now.
Like going from not doing anything to in a couple years,
you're on three different TV shows.
Are you coming back to Black-ish?
I did already.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, like I came back and did the four.
That's what I had to do.
I had to leave and go do Angie because everybody was going crazy when I left.
But it was like I had to go leave.
Because I had Angie Tribeca before I had Black-ish.
A lot of people didn't know that, so I had to.
I just went to Black-ish to write.
I wasn't even supposed to be on Black-ish.
The guy that was supposed to play Charlie didn't make it.
Who was it, you know?
Nah.
He's like, I'm not going to.
He's like, I'm not going to say it.
He said, no, that's such a lie
this white man
can't lie
he said
nah
did you cheat
nah
nah
I just got hit
that ain't cheating
nah but yeah
I went and
man
and I went
and played that character
and it just
it just took off man
one of my favorite episodes
is the one with Amber Rose.
Did you really try her?
She was your girlfriend on the show.
Or your ex.
Did I try her?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Man, Amber was so fine, man.
I ain't going to be lying.
Like, we was messing up on purpose.
Shout out to Amber.
Yeah, yeah.
I just kept going, okay, no, I forgot my line.
Okay, let's do it again.
Do it again.
She was actually good, though.
Yeah, she was good.
She was good.
And, like, I mean, surprisingly, she played that, like, fantastic.
Like, a lot of people was like, man, how's she going to do it or whatever?
And I was like, nah, y'all need to see Amber.
Amber really got it in, you know.
So, yeah, shout out to Amber, man.
She did that thing.
When you're in those situations, do you got to flush, like,
all the lustful thoughts out your mind
before you can do your thing?
No.
It probably helps.
That's the perk of it.
You just have to act accordingly,
but your mind can go wild.
All right, keep it locked.
We got more with comedian, actor Deon Cole
when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ MD Angela Yee.
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have Deon Cole in the interview.
In the interview.
We have Deon Cole in the building.
How was Barbershop?
Oh, Barbershop was crazy, man.
Just, I was the least famous in the whole movie.
It was crazy. It was so many entourages
and makeup artists
and all these people
on the set.
All I had was Carmex.
I just would do this
and go action
and not go out there
and do my set.
But yeah,
Barbershop was crazy, man.
It was,
shout out to Cube
and everybody.
But yeah,
that was, that was insane. That was worse with all those entourages because you had so many was crazy, man. It was, shout out to Cube and everybody, but yeah, that was
That was the spirit. That was the worst with all those entourages, because you had so many
different people, so many different artists, so many
different celebrities. Yeah, but you know what? I thought
it was going to be, like, really, really
crazy, like, ego-wise,
but it wasn't. Everybody was, like,
just chilling in their own little world.
Everybody would be on their phone,
or we'd talk and conversate and kick it or
whatever. We even went out a couple nights
And went to a party
But it wasn't like I thought it was going to be
I did
I was thinking like
Yeah, everybody's going to have kind of egos
And bugging
But nah, it was
I still love
Is it hard being a writer?
Especially being that you're on TV
And because you do stand up
Like just writing for other people
Is it hard to give away that good ass material sometimes?
Yeah, sometimes it is
Especially when you're doing, like,
I'm in a very unique situation
that a lot of people don't even realize
to have the networks be cool with me
working on different shows.
You know, that's very, very unusual
because once you're on the show, you're on that show.
But for me to work and do all those shows
when I do get a chance to write and go out or whatever, yeah, it's hard for me to kind of, like, write like I used to, you on that show, but for me to work and do all those shows when I do get a chance to write and go out
or whatever, yeah, it's hard for me to kind of like
write like I used to, you know
what I'm saying? And when I do give people
material, it's like, you know,
like, I be feeling like, man,
you better cherish that. Like,
you know, or I could keep it, you know what I mean?
But, yeah, it's hard. Do a lot of
other stand-up comics ask you to write for them?
Is that frowned upon? It is in a sense, but a lot of other stand-up comics ask you to write for them? Yeah. Is that frowned upon?
It is in a sense, but a lot of them,
like, you just don't even say who it is.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, you don't say who their names is or whatever,
and you, like, throw them a little bone or whatever
every now and then or whatever.
I used to write for Cat Williams, though.
Really?
Yeah.
I wrote for Nick Cannon.
I wrote for Cat. I wouldn't admit to that.
No, it was quick.
It was quick.
It was quick.
It was real quick.
And Cat never used nothing that I wrote for him.
Oh, he didn't?
How did you end up writing for Cat?
No, I wrote a gang stuff for him, and he was like, I'm going to do it.
But he never did it.
How did you end up writing for Cat?
Man, this dude named D. Milliton asked me to come on and write for him,
and I was like, all right, cool.
I'll go over there, and I'll write some stuff for him, whatever.
It was wild style, boy.
Everybody always tells me that Cat has always been this way.
We just not seeing it.
Cat always been.
Well, what y'all seeing now, I don't know what's going on,
but I know Cat, Cat good people, he a brilliant dude.
You don't know if he just doing that or if he not.
Like, Cat be on a whole nother level of marketing and whatever.
Like, I remember one time Cat had a surprise birthday party at his house.
And everybody was like, yo, we're going to surprise him and cut the lights on.
And I was sitting there like, nah, that ain't a good idea.
I was like, I'm going to hide behind the grill
because everybody cut the lights off.
I might pull out two nines
and just let everybody have it up in there.
I was like, nah, I ain't doing that.
No, I said I was thinking that.
I was like, what if they do that? What was crazy, like, when everybody was like, no, I said I was thinking that. I was like, what if they do that?
When they surprised him.
What was crazy, like, when everybody was like, it's quiet.
And it was like, cut the lights on there.
It was like, surprise.
And he just stood there.
And he looked at everybody.
And then he walked right to his room.
What?
Everybody was standing there with streamers and hats and balloons.
He wasn't too happy.
Everybody was just looking around like. He went right to his room. That's crazy. He wasn't too happy. I was looking around
like
he went right to his room.
That's crazy.
He never came back down?
He came back down
about an hour later
and sat in a throne
and opened gifts
and when he was
opening the gifts
he'd take the paper
It's like a baby shower.
He'd throw the paper
and these girls
would catch it
before it hit the ground.
What?
God damn.
You sound crazy.
Cat.
Yo, Cat on a whole nother level, Jack.
Shout out to Cat.
You wrote for Nick Cannon for your stand-ups?
They wrote Gigolo.
I said I wrote Gigolo.
Yeah, I went.
You know his stand-ups were terrible.
Me and him got together and I wrote some stuff.
You would be terrible if you get caught cheating.
He never used anything that I wrote.
Now Nick never uses any of that stuff.
Those were dope.
Those were dope.
Man, I be writing good stuff, man.
I be like, here.
If people don't use it, do you still get paid?
Yeah, yeah, you still get paid.
My first writing gig, honestly, was Ricky Smiley.
I wrote for him when he was doing a comic view or whatever. Yeah, you still get paid. My first writing gig, honestly, was Ricky Smiley. I wrote for him when he was doing a comic view.
But yeah, you still get paid.
Can you admit that?
Say you wrote for Nick.
You watch his stand-up special.
It's whack.
And you'd be like, man, you should have used my stuff.
But what if it was good?
Because you'd be like, all right.
Could you just give it up to him?
He'd be like, OK, I get it.
I would be like, man, you did it.
Way to go.
But Nick didn't even use it.
Nick was like this. Oh, man, that's fire. I can't wait to did it. Like, way to go. But Nick wasn't even, Nick didn't even use it. Nick was like this,
oh, man, that's fire.
I can't wait to use it.
And then I'll watch him later on
and he'll never use it.
And I'll be like, man.
That had me going,
what am I doing wrong?
All right, we got more with Deon Cole
when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have Dion Cole in the building.
Is Delirious your favorite stand-up since that's kind of how you got into this?
Man, what's so weird, though?
I love Delirious, but I also love Ellen DeGeneres and George Garland, Stephen Wright.
I like a lot of comics that's kind of left
That's the kind of
Comedian I try to be
I came up in an era where you needed
A catchphrase
You needed a suit with shoulder pads
In it
You know in them big green suits
You need to come out and
Alright now
Come on y'all
Come on let's do it.
Come on.
Like, I came up in that era, but I was more like a dude that was just on some different
stuff, man.
You know, I used to, a lot of people know me from using my notepad on stage.
I used to, like, check off jokes and read them and check them off or whatever, because
I used to be so high.
I can't remember.
Damn.
I used to have a notepad.
You still smoke that crazy or no? Nah. Uh-uh. Damn. I used to have no passion. You still smoke that crazy now?
Nah, uh-uh, no.
I quit.
You had a bad trip?
Yeah.
What happened?
Man, I got super, super tore off.
This comedian named Honest John brought some Cali Bud
and had me in a whole nother world, Jack.
And I was like, nah, I can't keep doing this.
Was there like one bad thing that happened?
I just couldn't, I was paying attention to my breathing.
You know, you ever do that?
You be like.
You having a heart attack or something?
Yeah, yeah.
Inhale, exhale.
I was doing that and I was like, nah, I can't keep doing this.
Was it just weed or was it something in it?
Nah, it was just weed.
It was powerful Cali weed.
Yeah, it was that Cali.
Man, yeah.
Smoke regular.
Like I was doing that.
Everybody want to smoke loud?
Turn the volume down a little bit.
I know, I know.
But no.
See, I didn't even know.
That was the first time I smoked or whatever.
And I was like, you know what?
I'm done.
I'm good.
I had a good run.
Do you feel like, I know sometimes for people, smoking helps them with their process.
Yeah, and they used to do that with me too.
But I had to quit.
Like, I had a problem.
I was spending like $2,800 a month on like weed and liquor and cigarettes and all of that.
I was getting too old.
The cigarettes, yeah.
The liquor, moderation.
Weed ain't too bad.
Yeah, see, I'm the type.
You have to cut it all out.
We gonna do it.
We gonna do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We gonna do it. We gonna do it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We gonna do it.
And we gonna do it.
Let's get it.
You can't just have one drink.
No.
Why we doing that?
Why we even start?
You did a cold turkey on your own?
You went cold turkey on your own?
Yeah.
Yup.
I went cold turkey.
I was supposed to go to Chicago one day for Thanksgiving.
I was on break from Conan, and I was like, you know what?
I'm going to spend these two weeks just kicking this.
And I went and bought a carton of cigarettes, threw them all away,
kept one, and locked myself in my place for two weeks.
Damn.
Just didn't do anything.
So no weed, no alcohol, no cigarettes now?
No.
Like, don't get me wrong. Nah, I might smoke once every six months.
Something like that, you know.
But it's enjoyable then, you know what I mean?
But not on a constant basis.
You feel like your head is clearer now?
Yeah.
Sometimes I feel like I'm a little lame.
But at the same token, I still feel like I'm sharper, though.
Right.
You know, but when I used to get high and drunk, I didn't care a lot, neither.
So now I got memories I remember.
You know, that's all.
I got memories I remember.
I remember that.
I'm serious.
Now you're going to be at Caroline's all weekend long.
As you finish it, as you've done.
Yeah, I know, right?
Yeah, Caroline's all weekend long. You finish it, you're done. Yeah, I know, man. Yeah, Caroline's all week long.
Yeah, I got an hour special on Comedy Central, too, June 25th.
What's the name of it?
It's called Cold-Blooded Seminar.
Capitol Hill, right outside Capitol Hill.
So, you know, I'm just trying to stay afloat, man.
And thank y'all for having me, too.

Goes to Dr. Malachi Love-Robinson
Now, I'm not gonna lie
I respect this young man
Okay, he's 18 years old
And has been charged with posing as a doctor
Yes, Dr. Malachi Love-Robinson
Posed as a medical professional
and he treated patients in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Now, this isn't the first time.
Last year, he allegedly posed as a doctor
at St. Mary's Medical Center.
He was 17 years old at the time.
And even though he got caught in a pregnant woman's exam,
he said he was simply shadowing physicians.
How'd he even get in the room?
Then several months later in October,
Malachi received a cease and desist order
from the Department of Health
when they discovered he was working
as an unlicensed massage therapist
at a local rehabilitation facility.
Drop one of Clue's bombs for Malachi, love, Robinson.
This kid is a borderline genius, okay?
I absolutely respect his hustle.
I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking, well, if you respect his hustle, why are you giving him donkey today?
I'll get to that. But let me keep giving you some of this story.
Now, Dr. Malachi Love Robinson was arrested this past Tuesday and accused of practicing medicine without a license.
OK, he was the head of his own practice.
According to his Web site, he was the, CEO, and founder of his own practice.
Now, the way he got taken down was an undercover
officer visited his office
and Dr. Robinson gave him a physical
and provided medical
advice to him. Are we keeping
score here? At 17 years old,
he gives himself an internship
and shadows physicians.
He wanted to learn how to give massages, so he
poses as a massage therapist.
This kid at 18 years old opens up his own practice,
went and got his own office,
had a website,
patients coming.
He had a lab coat,
a stethoscope.
Only thing he didn't have
was a medical license,
but who cares?
Drop one of Clues' bombs
for his ambition.
All right?
So many of y'all out here
pretending to be things
that don't contribute
anything to the culture. This man was pretending to be a doctor. What'all out here pretending to be things that don't contribute anything to the culture.
This man was pretending to be a doctor.
What about you guys who pretend to be drug dealers and gangsters?
Grown-ass men pretending to be Crips and Bloods at 30 plus.
I have to respect young Dr. Love for at least having the right energy.
He's just going in the wrong direction with it.
Now, he sat down with WBTV, and they put the young man under pressure.
Let's hear it.
Are you a doctor of anything at all?
I do currently hold a PhD in what I don't feel comfortable disclosing,
because that is not the issue here.
But the teen who goes by Dr. Love does advertise an array of treatments
on his medical center website, including phototherapy, food and air therapy, and naturopathy.
Are you a fraud?
Because it seems like everything you're saying to me
is either evasive or an outright lie.
I don't appreciate your tone.
I don't appreciate the way you're portraying
this interview to actually be.
Are you in big trouble?
I mean, it seems like you've spoken to a lawyer
who's prepared you for not only media,
but the police as well.
I don't know where you're receiving this information from, but it is inaccurate.
I'm sorry, I'm going to have to cut this interview short.
I'm going to have to cut this interview short.
And that's exactly what he did.
Look, forget all those questions.
My first question would have been, where did you get the money from to do all this?
Okay, I need to know where you got that money, because there's growing-ass people out here
who can't find money for bills and rent, this 18 year old kid had money to start his own
medical practice. Once again I respect
this kid's hustle and I love his energy. He's just
going in the wrong direction with it. My brother
Malachi. All the time you spent
pretending to be a doctor, using
money to open up offices, all of that
energy you spent trying to deceive people
could have simply been used on you
actually going to medical
school. Kids there are no shortcuts. There's no escaping the process. If you want to be a medical doctor, hmm I got an idea. Could it simply been used on you actually going to medical school?
Kids, there are no shortcuts.
There's no escaping the process.
If you want to be a medical doctor, hmm, I got an idea.
How about you do what all these other doctors did?
Go to medical school for it.
Okay, you kids want everything so fast.
Slow down.
Simmer down.
Don't hurry.
Trust the process.
The crazy thing is you're going through a process regardless.
It's just the process you're choosing to do is the criminal one.
So why not take the energy and transfer it through the right process,
which is medical school?
Hey, Dr. Malachi Love-Robinson, I respect the energy of your hustle, but I don't respect the actual hustle because, to me, you're hustling backwards.
Stop trying to figure out how to manipulate the system you want to be in
and actually put yourself in the system you're trying to manipulate.
If you want to be a doctor, you can actually do that by simply going to school.
Give Dr. Malachi Love Robinson the biggest hee-haw, please.
Did you know that he's also a reverend?
We don't. I doubt it.
That's probably he's pretending to be that.
No, he's a reverend also.
He was ordained and everything in 2014.
Who said that?
I can't believe this man.
He's been lying about being a doctor, so I refuse to believe anything else you tell me.
Now, the bishop who's the head of the missionary chapel and seminary said that they have temporarily rescinded his credentials and church charter pending the outcome of these other charges.
That's crazy.
If you say that you specialize in phototherapy and air therapy. If your dumb ass goes to see a doctor
that specializes in phototherapy and air therapy,
I don't even know what the hell those are.
I specialize in Photoshop.
Is that...
No, that's not...
What's phototherapy?
That's not the same thing?
That's when you gotta take five selfies a day
to make yourself feel better.
Okay, thank you for that donkey today.
Now when we come back,
it's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday!
And we have our resident sexologist,
Michelle Hope, offering up some tips in sex ed when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's Friday, so you know what that means.
It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday.
We have our sexologist, our resident sexologist, Michelle Hope in the building.
Good morning.
How you doing? That's why it's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. She's a sexologist. I know you're thinking, what is a sexologist, our resident sexologist, Michelle Hope in the building. Good morning. How you doing?
That's why it's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday.
She's a sexologist.
I know you're thinking, what is a sexologist?
Those don't exist, but they do.
They do exist.
Yes.
I work more in the ology.
I can do sex, but I am not a surrogate.
You can do sex?
Okay.
Yeah, I'm not the one that's going to sit there and watch you have sex with your partner
and be like, you know what?
Maybe go a little faster or maybe go a little slower.
I do kind of the before and after. So, like, how do you tell your partner? I really want? Maybe go a little faster or maybe go a little slower. I do kind of the before and after.
How do you tell your partner?
I really want you to go a little faster.
You know? You gotta say things in a
positive way. I did, yeah.
What was the degree? Sex.
There's no degree in sex. Sex studies.
There actually are some places that
there's like two universities that
Indiana University has a good department.
Indiana Howard University. Yeah.
UPenn has a good department. Indiana Howard University. Yeah, UPenn has a good university.
But the idea is I studied human development,
and I also did some work with marriage family therapy,
specializing in African-American family studies.
I'm really fascinated at how our community looks at sex and sexuality and what are the implications to our community as a whole.
When you look at rates of STIs, single motherhood, domestic violence and sexual assault, it's
extremely disproportionate in comparison to other races when you look at the African-American
community and our black and brown communities, especially.
So I think that there's conversations we need to start having to improve, you know, how we are all living as a people.
You know, we oftentimes hear people talking about manhood and how do we, you know, teach our young boys to be more responsible.
Well, how do you do that when you have 1.1 million fathers in the prison system?
Right. How do you teach a man to be a man if they're only men
he's seeing and only images of men
he's seeing on television are aggressive,
are angry. Well, men like to have sex
with other men too, though. And that's, I like
that too. I mean, I'm open
and I think that,
but are we showing images of us
doing positive things when it comes to
sexuality? Yeah.
I am not always the biggest fan of some of the things I see women doing,
but I definitely want to shout out Amber Rose for the slut walk.
Okay.
Kind of pushing against the idea of slut shaming,
because we have to stop that,
because that's what perpetuates rape culture.
Yeah, I think it's always so taboo,
and people are so shocked when women talk about sex.
And I feel like that's been an issue.
That's why we had you on the lip service podcast.
But that was the whole point of doing that is to give those conversations.
Because where do you learn about different things?
And where do you learn that what you're doing is not disgusting or shouldn't be talked about?
Well, that's one of the reasons people like the Amber Roses of the world.
Because they're not afraid to talk about sex.
And, you know, we always have a theory that is
quote unquote good girls are jealous
of Amber Rose because Amber
is free with her sexuality
and they would like to be. But I think that the
conversation should be shouldn't we all be
free and doesn't sex and
sexuality and what sex looks like
come in a lot of different forms. Yes it
does come. So yes it does no pun
intended but I think that you know with Amber Rose being so free she also gets a lot of different forms. Yes, it does come. So, yes, it does. No pun intended. But I think that, you know,
with Amber Rose being so free,
she also gets a lot of backlash, right?
And then for women who feel like
they're stifled in their sexuality,
they might not get as much sex.
But it seems like kids are having
and indulging in sex a little too early now
because they see it more.
I remember as a kid,
you didn't see that much sex.
It wasn't on television.
There wasn't too many strip clubs.
You could have just go online and look at porn free.
Exactly.
You're talking about Pied, right?
Porn-induced erectile dysfunction.
Oh, yes.
It's a real thing.
I read it in Time Magazine last month.
You see that more.
And kids are starting to have sex a lot younger now, which is very scary.
Well, I think that what we have to focus on is thinking about how are we educating these
kids to sex?
So if it's out there already, right?
Why aren't we doing federally mandated sex ed K through 12 age appropriate?
Right.
Like, hey, yes.
Okay.
But in K, we're not talking about sex. We're talking about who are the trusted adults in your life.
If something happens and you need to have a conversation.
We can avoid a lot of child molestation, a lot of child trafficking,
if we could start having conversations
around values when it comes to healthy relationships.
True.
All right, shout out to Michelle Hope for joining us.
We have more when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have our resident sexologist,
Michelle Hope, in the building.
She'll help you out with all your problems and needs.
I'm always a big proponent of, number one, knowing your status,
and number two, communicating, right?
So just as much as I would say, you know, I really like it when you pull my hair,
or I want to be able to say, when's the last time you were tested?
Right.
Let's talk about that.
That's interesting.
My homegirl hit me the other day, and she said that she doesn't want her future baby daddy
to have sickle cell or lupus.
And she was asking me,
is that wrong to ask a man that when you're in a relationship?
Like, when you first start dating a man,
like, do you have sickle cell genes or lupus genes
or something like that?
No, I don't think at our age.
I mean, maybe, like...
She's young, too.
She's, like, 22, 23.
Oh, well, I mean,
is she looking to have a baby right away?
I don't know.
So I think that those kinds of questions aren't off the table. I'm a firm
believer that you should ask, like,
you ever had an STD? I think if you're sleeping
with somebody, you should be able to ask them anything you want
to ask them. That's what, hey, if you're about to
put their fingers, mouth, and penis
in places, you know...
Why am I scared to ask a question?
Do you have sickle cells in your family? Right. And if you're trying to make a baby, you're laying down with somebody, you know. Why am I scared to ask a question? Why do you have sickle cells in your family?
Right.
And if you're trying to make a baby,
you're laying down with somebody,
you're not using protection,
you should really be able to ask, right?
Like, you want to be able to ask, like,
hmm, when's the last time you were tested?
And if you really want to do Netflix and chill,
just pop right on over to your local drugstore,
pick you up an OraQuick test,
and be like, bam, we can do this right here.
You can get OraQuick, HIV tests, rapid tests.
I'm going to tell you why that's not a good idea.
It's not a good idea because if I haven't been tested in a while,
last thing I want to do is take an OraQuick test
when I'm about to watch season two of Unbreakable with Kimmy Smith
and I'm positive right there on the couch.
Like, that's not good.
You're absolutely right. But maybe not for you, but
for the woman who's about to have sex with you, that's
absolutely positively good.
Well, it's good for you too because now you can get the help
you need. Don't you want to know? Yeah, but
I don't want her to know. So you don't have to do it.
You can go in the bathroom.
I'm going to take an oral quick test right before we're about to watch
Dead Devil. It's positive and
she's just going to be like, oh, cool.
She's going to tweet about it immediately.
Snapchat.
You have to do it right there in front of her,
but at some point, you can agree to do something.
When you leave that night, she'll know.
I think that for me, the idea is
maybe not on a Netflix date, but that you
can have access to finding out.
It's right there. It's $39.
Also, there are a ton of clinics that you can go
and get a free HIV test.
You know, as African Americans, we make up approximately 16% of the population,
but we make up over 50% of the HIV positive population in the United States.
Yeah, I read some crazy stuff this morning from my hometown of Charlottesville,
Carolina.
It's like disgusting.
Yeah, and it's interesting because places like South Carolina,
where they don't mandate sex education,
are also places that have higher rates of
STIs. Wow. Now, if you are HIV
positive, how do you tell somebody? Does that mean
that you shouldn't be even trying to go out
and have sex? No, because
we have things like PrEP. We have things like
PEP. If you're on your meds, you're taking
your antiretrovirals. Like Charlie
Sheen said, it was undetectable.
Yeah, just like Magic Johnson. That's what I would do. I'd show up in a Magic Johnson jersey and put on two and a half men, Like Charlie Sheen said, it was undetectable. Yeah, just like Magic Johnson.
That's what I would do.
I'd show up in a Magic Johnson jersey
and put on two and a half men
when Charlie Sheen used to be on.
She'll get the hint.
Right, like, hmm.
Just keep coughing.
But no, I don't want people
to get the idea.
That is a misconception and a myth.
And those are the myths
we're really trying to squash.
The idea is that, you know,
if you're undetectable,
that means you're undetectable.
And that also means that you have a lower likelihood of passing the virus on to another person.
Your viral loads are so low that it's not showing up in a test.
Right.
So keeping yourself healthy is fine.
And this is something you can live with.
It's a manageable disease like a lupus.
Yeah.
Right.
It's very manageable.
Lupus is a manageable disease. like a lupus. Yeah. Right? It's very manageable. Lupus is a manageable
disease. HIV now is a
very manageable disease. If you know
your status, you get
tested, and then you're using condoms
with your partner, it's very manageable.
And if you have a partner that is HIV
positive, I would advise you to go to the doctor
and get on the
prep. You know, I had people one day
saying that I was HIV age shaming
because I think we asked the question,
would you have,
because after Charlie Sheen,
would you have sex with somebody
if they told you that they were HIV positive?
And I was like, no, I wouldn't.
I mean, it's up to every individual person
what they want to do.
But if you're using a condom, right?
And you are,
and that individual is on their antiretrovirals,
you have a very low likelihood of contracting HIV.
Is it impossible?
No, it's not impossible.
But the likelihood is low.
So is it like Powerball numbers?
Like if I play the lottery?
It's low.
I could say comfortably it's probably lower than 10% if you're using
condoms, also
dealing with somebody who's on their meds.
Alright, well we have more with Michelle Hope when we come
back. The sexologist. Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
EJ, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne
the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We have our
resident sexologist Michelle, in the building.
Now, what about trying to talk a guy into something?
There's a lot of guys that are really funny about their anal area.
I'm talking to Michelle here.
But they don't understand how much pleasure it could potentially give them.
Now, I know women who say they do this to every guy they're with.
Guys love it.
And they do it to disrespect them.
I hear your friends talking. They act like they're doing it to give us pleasure every guy they're with. These guys love it. And they do it to disrespect them. I hear your friends talking.
They act like they're doing it to
give us pleasure, but they're disrespecting us.
You're looking disrespected right now.
Angry.
You have been with a couple of your friends
this is it.
But I think that, you know, first and foremost,
the back door is not for everybody.
Second of all,
second of all, don't knock it till you try it.
Right.
Right?
And number three, it does not make you a gay person or a gay man if you like a little bit of anal play.
It makes you a freak.
Like, you have the prostate gland, which can be accessed through the rectum.
And there are so many nerve endings on that prostate.
And they're never stimulated. They're prostate, and they're never stimulated.
They're never touched.
They're never stimulated.
Nothing.
So the idea is, like, when you touch a part of somebody's body
that's got some feeling that doesn't normally get touched, too.
Right?
But have a clean butt, though.
Please.
Like, please have a clean butt.
Wipe your ass.
I don't mind a tongue, but a whole finger, that's a bit much for me.
I mean, you work your way up.
Right.
If you like a tongue, you'll like a finger.
Just a little bit.
Now, what about squirting?
What about it?
Squirting is like a trophy.
Okay, what you're seeing on porn is probably urine.
Oh, okay.
Because when it's shooting across the room.
That doesn't really happen?
But the splash, like a...
I got the splash, but I've never seen...
I've been going for the shoot across the room.
That can't happen.
That's not a shooter.
That's regular in my life.
The shoot across the room?
Never mind.
My wife wouldn't want me talking about it.
Did your wife want us to know this?
Right.
I was like, this is getting real.
I can't get the shoot across the room.
I get the splash.
I get a little.
But I want the...
But yeah, my vision or thought with that and what I've seen in porn, and this is another
reason why I think our society sexually is just askew.
We've been watching too many porns.
And it's so easy to access that people really start to believe that the sex we're seeing in porn is the sex that we're having.
And it's not.
You ain't lying.
I hurt my back this weekend watching a porn.
I was watching this porn called Black Families, right?
Black Families.
I can't.
It was a black father.
He had a black wife, two daughters.
It was one white dude.
It started off with one white dude having sex with one of the daughters.
And he was trying to sneak out the house.
So as he's trying to escape the house, he ends up bumping into the mom, having sex with the mom.
You really had this story?
I know people just watch the sex part.
You watch the whole part.
I'll just fast forward then.
I'm watching it.
So my grown ass, well over the age of 30, tried that.
Man, please.
You tried to stay hard?
My back was hurting so bad.
Like literally,
like literally the next day
I was walking up the steps.
I'm like, oh,
what the hell happened?
It was all that good loving.
Yeah, black family pool.
Right.
Black family.
Yeah, I mean,
you have to understand
the average sex,
it only lasts
three to five minutes.
What?
That's really, yeah. The studies show it's lasts three to five minutes. What? That's really, yeah.
The studies show it's like three to five minutes.
Three to five minutes.
So if I get six minutes, I'm above average.
But see, the problem, though, is we don't do enough foreplay.
Yeah, that's a problem.
Because we don't take the time to talk about what we like.
Right.
So we don't know, like, maybe somebody into a little popping.
Like, what happened to the days where somebody, like, took pride in getting to second base?
Mm-hmm.
Second base was the finger.
Wait, what?
No, it wasn't your boobs, right?
Oh, you're right.
Your kiss.
You like totally.
When did people stop loving mammaries?
And I always say that people don't do that anymore.
They don't.
And I always say that.
And that's too bad.
Because they don't like it no more.
No, we do like it.
One, and two, you have to understand for a man,
it takes a man like two or three minutes to be ready
and hit that plateau phase of the sexual response cycle.
It takes a woman like 10 to 15 minutes.
So what's the right way to rub?
Because I tend to do it like a DJ.
You know, DJ.
What's the right way?
There is no right way.
Just rub it.
You're going to be so mad.
That's not how you DJ.
I think.
Is that how I DJ?
But yeah, I think that the way to rub is the way to, you have to understand.
So it has a hood.
By the way, she flipped her dress a little bit when she did that.
I ain't gonna lie.
For a reason.
Because I'm thinking about, so it has a hood for a reason.
The reason is because in the clitoris, there's like 5,000 nerve endings.
So the hood is there to protect kind of like an uncircumcised penis.
Like, did you know uncircumcised penises are more sensitive than circumcised penises?
I didn't know that.
I heard you say that.
You got a little extra skin on yours.
I had a little skin bridge.
It's no longer there, though.
I got a cut in my 17.
Oh, what'd that feel like?
I don't know.
I miss it, though.
Yeah.
I've been thinking about it lately.
I don't know why.
You know, you could regrow it.
Really?
Yeah, you could regrow it.
Plant some seeds?
Yeah, so the idea is that it keeps it from being overexposed
or overstimulated because then it can become
painful. There are some
contraptions in some devices. It's just skin
stretching. So you would stretch the skin.
You could do that to your whole penis maybe.
No, but I was fully circumcised. I just had like a bridge
from like real small.
Oh, yes. So you have a little
leftover. So the hood is there.
So if you kind of pull the hood back to expose,
but you definitely would want to have a little moisture on your finger.
Lube it up.
Uber Lube is a great lube.
A little goes a long way.
Uber delivers a lube.
No, it's a German lube.
It's like medical grade silicone lube.
You can remove eye makeup with it.
Sometimes I use it for flyaways in my hair.
You got to come up here more often.
On all my social media at mhsexpert, www.mhsexpert.com.

Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
