Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. to the planet. It's Thursday! Yes, it's Thursday. The weekend is almost here. Man, the weekend is here, bro. Okay? The weekend is whatever you want it to be. If you want the day to identify as the weekend,
Starting point is 00:02:31 then it identifies as the weekend. Okay? Yes. Alright, so today is the weekend. You looking forward to the weekend? I am. You know, yesterday I got an endoscopy. Did I say that right? Sounds about right. Usually they do it when they do the colonoscopy. Yeah, I heard. And they use the same camera sometimes. They do not use the same camera.
Starting point is 00:02:48 They do the colonoscopy first. No, they don't. And then they do the endoscopy right with the same camera. No, they don't. But no, I did an endoscopy yesterday. And man, I can't stop sneezing. Really? Hell no.
Starting point is 00:02:57 Because it feels like every time I breathe, I can feel the air going all the way up my nostrils. So I've been sneezing since yesterday. Well, for people that don't know, endoscopy is when they put a camera down your throat or is it your nose? I'm not sure. Your throat. Your throat. And then they look for any polyps or any cancerous cells in your, I think it's your stomach or your throat or whatever it may be. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Yeah, I don't have any of those. Thank God. Thank God. Yeah, absolutely. What made you check it? Did you have problems? I just been having the chest pains, and it was heartburn. What I thought was chest pains was actually the heartburn,
Starting point is 00:03:32 and he wanted to check for the acid reflux and everything like that. But I mean, I just think that's something that everybody should be doing. The colonoscopies, the endoscopies. We take more care of our cars. That's true. We take our cars to get serviced all the time, but we don't care of our cars. That's true. You know what I mean? We take our cars to get serviced all the time, but we don't check on our bodies. So, you know, I'm trying to be here for another 50 years.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Yeah, you and me both. Now, this is Dance Dad weekend. So my daughter has dance. She has competition. And it's just one of those things. You just sit down and just wait and just sit down and wait and sit down and wait. Yeah, my daughter got cheerleading competition this weekend. But it's cheerleading competition season, though.
Starting point is 00:04:08 So every other weekend, she got cheerleading competition. And we got the WGA Awards this weekend. And, you know, my late-night talk show, Hell of a Week, is nominated for Best Writing Comedy Variety Series. Drop a bomb for that. I don't even know if I said that category right, but that's on Sunday. And salute to Nadra Tawab Glover, man. Yesterday, we had a great event at Brooklyn Bell House, sold-out event, because she put out her new book, Drama Free, how to
Starting point is 00:04:31 manage unhealthy family relationships. And what I realized, you know, Nadra's been on Breakfast Club a couple of times, but she put out her first book, Set Boundaries, Find Peace. She put that out in 2020, but she put it out during COVID. So she never got, that was her first in conversation about one of her books. Because she never got to do any of that stuff.
Starting point is 00:04:51 She never got to do any book signings or anything because of COVID. And her book went on to be super successful, Make the New York Times Best Sellers List. So I love the fact that with this new book, Drama Free, she's getting the opportunity to actually touch people and see the impact that her book has had on people's lives, man. So salute to Nadra Glover and make sure you go grab Drama Free, her new book right now. Now, you know who I ran into yesterday? I ran into J. Cole yesterday. Really? After just announcing his Dreamville concert.
Starting point is 00:05:18 No, it wasn't at the thrift store. It was actually leaving a hotel. He actually, my assistant seen him and was like, hey, you just missed J. Cole. So I called him. He hopped back out the car. We had a nice little conversation. He's excited about his Dreamville concert. I am too.
Starting point is 00:05:31 I'm actually going to go. I want to see some of the artists that are performing. I think it's going to be pretty dope. I was talking about that lineup yesterday. I was saying how dope that lineup is because somebody was saying how, man, the lineup is all over the place. And I'm like, yo, that's fantastic. I think so too.
Starting point is 00:05:44 It's good that we can go somewhere and you can go from Afro Beach to, you know, OG crunk music like Waka Flocka. Bring it up to speed to Glorilla. Then you got Ari Lennox and the City Girls, Earth Gang. Come on, man. Drake, J. Cole himself. Come on, man. Like you said, Burner Boy. So it's going to be a dope concert.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Like you said, it's going to be so many different ways to enjoy the music. So I look forward to that. So shout out to J. Cole and everybody in the Carolinas. Now let's get the show cracking. Front page news. Angela Rye is going to be joining us. She's going to be handling the front page news. And you know why I like when she does the front page news?
Starting point is 00:06:16 Because she knows what she's talking about. Because she knows what she's talking about. She's right here. Say something, Angela. She's actually. Hey, everybody. Hey. All right.
Starting point is 00:06:21 And we'll get into that next. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club, and we have Angela Rye here. Well, fun praise news.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Let's get right into it. All right, let's do it. Before we start with the news, I just want to let you know some quick sports. Kevin Durant is back from injury. He scored 23 points last night. You know, he plays for the Phoenix Suns. Yep. And they beat the Hornets 105-91.
Starting point is 00:06:44 They're saying the one-two punch from him and Booker looks amazing so far. I didn't see it last night. You know, he plays for the Phoenix Suns. Yep. And they beat the Hornets 105-91. They're saying the one-two punch from him and Booker looks amazing so far. I didn't see it last night. Well, we got Eddie Ryder. All right. So first, King Charles III's coronation will be held on May 6th. But the monarchy is having a few challenges in booking some A-list British musicians. Folks are saying they have conflicts and the palace waited too late. And we're talking Harry Styles, Elton John, Ed Sheeran.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Even Adele says she can't come through. Okay, but none of them people except for Ed Sheeran, including the royals. Well, I think it's kind of interesting because in part, some folks would say, oh, maybe they did wait too late. I want to say people understand now that the monarchy may not be all as cracked up to be. We've talked about that on your nighttime talk show. What are they celebrating? Somebody died?
Starting point is 00:07:30 No. Yeah, I was going to say, what is coronation? What is that? So you guys do know that Queen Elizabeth died. She has a son that's now going to take over as king. He becomes King Charles III. He is crowned as king on May 6th. And he can't get nobody to perform. That's like Barack Obama having somebody who lost American Idol in the first round coming to perform because he can't get nobody.
Starting point is 00:07:53 You see what I'm saying? Yeah, and you know what's so crazy? Speaking of the late night show, Malcolm Gladwell was on that show. He said that all of those people are just mascots anyway. None of them have any real power. I remember. I'll never forget that conversation. That's the first time I ever disagreed with Malcolm Gladwell in a real way.
Starting point is 00:08:06 I was mad at him that day. Anyway, the other thing that I think is actually really, really significant and has something to do with what's going on in the United States, Eli Lilly is capping the patient costs of insulin at $35. So this pharmaceutical company, you all may know if you have anybody related to you or close to you that suffers from diabetes, is one of the three major U.S. manufacturers of insulin. It says it will cut the cost of its two largest largest selling insulin brands by 70 percent by the fourth quarter of this year. By May 1st, just a couple of months away, it'll cap the price of a generic form of insulin at twenty25, which is down from $82.
Starting point is 00:08:46 These prices have been skyrocketing. That's amazing. Right? We know that in the Inflation Reduction Act, which was passed by Congress last year, they capped insulin costs for folks on Medicare. I would like to say that this is one of those times where politics influence corporations to do the right thing by capping these costs. The one other thing that I think is really significant, we know a lot of folks in our community who don't have insurance.
Starting point is 00:09:09 They are not only capping the out-of-pocket costs for folks with private insurance at $35. You can now download a savings card from them to receive the same benefit. With all of this nice information, they should probably sponsor this show. I didn't even mean to plug them like this. That's a good plug, though. Let me ask you a question, though. When it comes to that, is it the government that's capping them or their own business is capping them? Because at the end of the day, it's business.
Starting point is 00:09:30 And, you know, if it's costing them, you know, $30 a vial to make it and it's charging $35, how does that affect businesses and other businesses when they're charging? I love that you asked that question. They were influenced by the Inflation Reduction Act because Congress said for Medicare, they had to cap the cost. They took it a step further and said, we're going to cap it even further. Envy, I know you're worried about the price margins here, but here's what I want you to know. Pharmaceutical companies ain't struggling. They're doing just fine. And what I think this shows us is this has been something that they could have done. Folks saw what Mark Cuban did with that platform online saying we're going to make pharmaceutical
Starting point is 00:10:08 drugs more affordable to people who are struggling. They could have been did this. They're doing it now because they finally got challenged and realized the timeline and the runway was short for being able to continue to charge people these astronomical costs. If you got diabetes, you don't necessarily have ends that can meet to pay $82 a vial for insulin. When does that kick in?
Starting point is 00:10:29 So the first part is May 1st. This is for the generic form of insulin that's going to go down from $82 to $25. The rest of the two brands that they have
Starting point is 00:10:38 will cap their costs by the end of the fourth quarter this year. Man, drop on a Clues bomb for that. That's incredible. That's dope. I'll tell you one thing too. I love telling y'all. As soon as they make some quarter this year. Man, drop on a Clues bomb for that. That's incredible. That's dope. I'll tell you one thing, too.
Starting point is 00:10:46 I love telling y'all. As soon as they make some of this anesthesia affordable, and I can buy it on the black market, I'm going to get me some. You better not. As soon as I woke up from that endoscopy yesterday, and I told to the nurse, I said, you sure I can't get a little bit of that?
Starting point is 00:10:59 I can't get a little bit of that to take home? No, man. She said to me, she said, nope, you know what happened to Michael Jackson. I told you, you didn't believe me at first. But I'll tell you what, I can understand Michael. Oh, my goodness. You better watch it.
Starting point is 00:11:11 Her anesthesia is amazing. It is. Put you right out. You know, I didn't mean to start to encourage people to find other ways to get pharmaceutical drugs. I was just trying to say there's some people that actually need insulin to live. You trying to get anesthesia to get high. You on the wrong side of the truck. No, the sleep. Yeah. The sleep. Same thing. Every help him understand that that you trying to get anesthesia to get high we're on the wrong side yeah that's sleep same thing every help him understand that that's trying to get hot no i told him that the other day but then yeah i'm not gonna lie that's that's what i'm trying
Starting point is 00:11:33 to tell you i'm not encouraging him but that's when you go get them on anoscopies whether it's the colonoscopy or the endoscopy yeah boy that 10 minutes feel like you slept for 12 hours man it's facts some people wake up from anesthesia and they're ready to fight. It's a different type of anesthesia. This one, when you wake up, like, oh. That's right. The angels start singing to you. When I got the colonoscopy, I woke up with an erection, a crazy erection.
Starting point is 00:11:58 That's something different. That is different. When I got the endoscopy yesterday, I woke up and I couldn't stop sneezing. Even now, I'm still sneezing. But yet, you want this anesthesia. I do. All right. I can't wait until you get an endoscopy yesterday, I woke up and I couldn't stop sneezing. Even now I'm still sneezing. But yet you want this anesthesia. I do. I can't wait until you get an endoscopy. You won't know what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:12:11 If you sound congested, I don't want any of what you got. All right. Well, that is front page news. Get it off your chest. Angela, I'll be back next hour, too. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051. Hit us up right now, phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Hit us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Ray, Ray, Ray. Yo, Charlemagne. Lindsey, what up? Are we live?
Starting point is 00:12:36 This is your time to get it off your chest. I got an indoor pool, an outdoor pool. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. We can get on the phone right now. He'll tell you what it is. We live. Hello, who's this? This is Pepsi Joe.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Good morning, Breakfast Club. Good morning, sir. Good morning, Joe. I feel like you shall remain a god. You see, I called previously that I showed up, you know, that I come to work on time. And today I'm late. I'm going to work right now. I'm usually already at work.
Starting point is 00:13:03 And I can't even blow the horn for you today. First of all, let's be clear. I haven't been late all year long, sir. Absolutely. I actually have noticed that. I want to give you the flowers for that because you have not shown up late ever since you came to the mothership. How do you give him flowers for what he's supposed
Starting point is 00:13:20 to do? That's because the black mothership, that's what we call our studio, the black mothership cuts off 20 minutes from my commute. How do you give him flowers for doing what he's supposed to do? That's because the black mothership, that's what we call our studio, the black mothership cuts off 20 minutes from my commute. How do you give him flowers for doing what he's supposed to do? He's supposed to be your child. I'm not doing what you're supposed to do, but it sort of is. But I mean, you know, when somebody
Starting point is 00:13:36 does what they should, you should give them the props they deserve, no? No, no, no, you shouldn't. He should be doing that. Thank you, Pepsi Joe. It's like saying somebody, I'm giving you flowers for being a good dad. You're supposed to be a good dad. Thank you, Pepsi Joe. It's like saying somebody, I'm giving you flowers for being a good dad. You're supposed to be a good dad. Thank you, Pepsi Joe. No, no, no, because it's turns a bad dad out there. You give the flowers to the good dad.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Oh, my goodness. Thank you, Pepsi Joe. I appreciate your encouragement. I will say that Charlamagne hasn't been late, I think. Nah, not at all. Not even one time. I've not been late at all because the Black Mothership literally cuts off 20 minutes from my commute.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Literally. That's what we call this studio, the new studio, the Black Mothership. Hello, who's this? Yo, how you doing? Uh-oh. How are you? What's your name, sir? Yo, this is Rick, man.
Starting point is 00:14:14 I just wanted to say, I heard how Envy said, like, what are the price margins between pharmaceutical companies? Yes, sir. Man, dude, it literally costs about a dollar to make a vial of insulin bro seriously in canada like i used to stand in buffalo area we go to canada and stuff man
Starting point is 00:14:29 they usually go they literally go to canada get insulin for like 10 bucks that's just pharmaceutical companies um making more profits and putting more profits over people health they've been doing that you know what i'm saying actually so like yeah actually you're right research well that's not a dollar but here in america researchers have estimated that a vial of insulin costs less than seven dollars to manufacture and that's crazy man you know what i'm saying so like like there was a boom in insulin like black market like well people going to canada and bringing it back to the states like they nearly charge us more here because you don't have the regulations like those other states have.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Right? So, like, but that was that. And another thing I want to get off my chest for, I love you guys. You guys are awesome, right?
Starting point is 00:15:13 But, like, Texas right now has a bill in their state legislation, right, saying that they will extend pregnancy Medicaid for pregnancy women
Starting point is 00:15:22 up to a year. I think it should be two. If you restrict abortion, you should pay for these people to have kids and pay for their health care because we all know I have five kids myself. You know, and what it's compassionate about is the black mortality rate. Black women mortality rate. That's right. They have kids.
Starting point is 00:15:40 We need to protect these women if we're going to put their bodies constantly through this when sometimes they don't want to man you absolutely right man you're so right you're so right if you're going if you're going to make a woman have a baby then you know you have to provide her some type of financial means in order to take care of that child and not only that like he said you know i was talking to angela rye about this behind the scenes i mean yes i believe health care should be free i mean i shouldn't have to if my my child has an ailment or i have an ailment i shouldn't the first thing i shouldn't have to think about is how i'm gonna pay for it you know well you should have voted for bernie sanders then because that's what bernie sanders wanted
Starting point is 00:16:15 bernie sanders wanted free education i agree with that i mean and it does it is crazy that a country like america that makes so much damn money you know, can't provide free health care for people. Or at least really affordable health care. That's why I guess... Obama. Yeah, the Affordable Care Act was really good. Because I've heard more people talk about the Affordable Care Act and Medicaid you know, over the last
Starting point is 00:16:37 decade in regards to health insurance. And people say it really helps. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Hey, guys.

Starting point is 00:25:34 Thank you, mama. I love those pictures, by the way. You know why I love them? I love them because they piss all of y'all off. All right? What you mean? I love those pictures that Michael B. Jordan and Jonathan Majors took because they make all of these dudes out here with fragile egos uncomfortable. Oh my goodness.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Okay, that's why. And I love them. Alright? You know what? Can I put that picture behind me and just do the whole show with that picture behind me? If that's what you like. Yes. I want to do that.
Starting point is 00:25:58 Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, you can hit us up. I meant to ask, what you prefer? Up the butt, down the throat? The anesthesia. That's what I prefer. I prefer that good-ass anesthesia, man.
Starting point is 00:26:11 I totally understand why Michael Jackson wanted that anesthesia for his own personal benefit. I totally get it, Mike. God bless today. All right. When we come back, we got to talk about Mary J. Blige. Somebody's saying Mary J. Blige sounded a little flat when she was singing. We'll talk about it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. What's happening? What's happening? Let's get to the rumors.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Let's talk Mary J. Blige. Rumor has it. Rumor. Rumor has it. Call out her name or you gossiping or you chatty patty. I am gossiping. This is the rumor report. I mean, I guess we on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:26:51 This is where the tea spills, right? Yes. On The Breakfast Club. Now, I hate Mary J. Blige slander. Boy, I started to jump through this TV screen and fight you. I thought, oh, boy, if you hadn't had that slander at the end. I thought you were saying, I hate Mary J. Blige. No, I hate Mary J. Blige sl No, I hate Mary J. Blige.
Starting point is 00:27:05 I will swing on you for saying such things like that. I'll bite you for Mary J. Blige. I'm with you. I'm going to bite with you. We're going to be biting together. You ever see me and them be biting somebody because they said something disrespectful about Mary J. Blige? Absolutely. So Chaka Khan was talking about Mary J. Blige.
Starting point is 00:27:20 Rolling Stone put out the 200 best singers list, and Mary was over Chaka Khan. And Chaka decided she wanted to talk about Mary and her song, Sweet Thing. When you would introduce the Rufus song, Sweet Thing, which was your ballad. I wrote it. You would call it the song Mary J. Blige fucked up. Is that true? Well, I didn't say that out in public. I might have said it to her.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Okay, but so you did believe. But I called Mary J. Blige she fucked it up. How'd she fuck it up? Number one, her vocals were flat. I said, what time of day was it when you decided to cover Sweet Thing? Where were you at when you covered it? Oh, girl, I've been up all late at night. It was at 8 o'clock in the morning, girl.
Starting point is 00:27:59 She said, girl, you don't sing nothing at 8 o'clock in the morning. Especially if you have to get up to sing it. If you'd have been up all night smoking crack or something i don't know maybe a different a whole different thing but she and i have that kind of relationship we can talk you know i love i love her she loves me we don't have a problem god bless the ogs man drop on the clues for chaka khan i'm not biting chaka khan because chaka k Khan said she actually said that to Mary J. Blige. You know what I'm saying? And that is a valid question.
Starting point is 00:28:28 And you cannot tell me that is not an OG veteran question that somebody will ask you that will have you thinking about your whole life. What time of morning was it when you recorded this song? Well, let's play Chaka's Sweet Thing. Don't you hear me talking, baby? Love me now, I'll go crazy. Oh, sweet thing. All right, all right, all right. Don't you know you're my everything Now Shaka should be mad at you That's what she should be mad at Shaka should really be mad at you
Starting point is 00:28:57 She should pull up on you the way you singing Now let's hear Mary J. Blige's version Don't you hear me talking baby Love me now or I'll go crazy Oh, sweet thing Blige version. You defeated the purpose of sick playful feelings. You're my everything. I wish you were my lover. You defeated the purpose of Queen.
Starting point is 00:29:28 I'm so undercover. Love you, child, my whole life long. Listen, let me tell you something. First of all, once again, salute to the OGs. Mary didn't sound flat to me, but I'm not a singer. She sounded fine. Listen, salute to the OGs. They sound amazing.
Starting point is 00:29:39 They have earned the right to not give an F anymore. I don't care if it's Chaka Khan, Stephanie Mills. You don't have to agree with them, but just know they earned the right to say what the hell they want. And I agree with you, Envy. I don't agree with Chaka Khan either. And you know we worship Mary J. Blige. But who am I to tell the great Chaka Khan she's wrong about how someone sang her song? You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:29:59 I can't. I'm not a singer. I can't tell if it's right. We can tell. Well, she also talks about Mariah Carey. Mariah Carey, number five. Fuck yeah. All right, good.
Starting point is 00:30:09 That must be pay older or some shit like that. Wait, okay, so you're good with Mariah Carey? No, I'm not. Oh, you're not. Why? Pay older. The fix is still in getting Mariah Carey that high? Okay, Ray Charles, six.
Starting point is 00:30:21 Can we agree with Ray Charles, six? Yeah, why not? Yeah. Stevie Wonder, Beyonce, eight. I we agree with Ray Charles 6? Yeah. Why not? Yeah. Stevie Wonder. Stevie Wonder. Beyonce. 8. I'm not going to comment on that.
Starting point is 00:30:30 What? No comment? I don't have anything to say about Beyonce. She's a great singer. Okay? She really has opportunity to be a great singer. She has what it takes. She got the chops.
Starting point is 00:30:41 She does. Yo, Chaka was supposed to come up here. I don't know what happened. Chaka Khan, I think, wanted to come up to the breakfast. I don't remember what happened. Yo, Chaka was supposed to come up here. I don't know what happened. Chaka Khan, I think, wanted to come up to the breakfast. I don't remember what happened. I love Chaka Khan. I would have loved if she came to the breakfast club. Listen, here's the thing, man. You know, whenever you get a chance, opportunity to talk to the OGs,
Starting point is 00:30:55 like, you know, Chaka Khan or Stephanie Mills or Patti LaBelle behind the scene, that's how they talk. You know what I'm saying? So I find it, you know, quite entertaining when I hear them talk like that publicly. I guess they don't give an F no more. And they have earned the right to be able to say whatever the hell they want. Okay? You don't have to agree with them, but they've earned the right to not give an F.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Now, Red, pull up the audio of her talking about Adele. Now, she was also discussing. Yeah, she was also discussing Adele. I know she got smoked for Adele. Just give me a thumbs up, Red, when you're ready. All right, let's go. Just ahead of you. Who?
Starting point is 00:31:28 Adele at 22. Okay, I quit. I'm sorry. Do it. What? What do you want me to do? Tell me something else. Give me somebody else.
Starting point is 00:31:35 Mary J. Blige, number 25. What? Wait, wait. I'm 22 and she's 25? No, you're 29 and she's 25. Oh, you know what? Now, that's why I feel the way I do. I shouldn't have done that.
Starting point is 00:31:46 These are blind, bad bitches. These bitches are blind as a mother f***er's back. But no, they need hearing aids. They don't have hearing aids. They have no eyes. They have no ears. Why did I not stop while I was ahead? Why did I have to do the ones that were...
Starting point is 00:31:58 They must have... These bitches... You know what? These must be the children of Helen Keller. Drop on a clues bomb for Chaka Khan, man. What you want me to say to Chaka Khan, you don't have to agree with Chaka Khan, but just know she's earned the right to say what the hell they want.
Starting point is 00:32:14 And I don't think she's being bitter if that's her truth. When I hear OG like her talk, I don't hear bitter. I just hear unfiltered, grown folks talk. Well, Chaka Khan is 69 years old. She'll be 70 this month. So shout to Chaka Khan. You are an icon. You are a legend.
Starting point is 00:32:29 And I love when the OGs just start speaking the truth. Yeah, Chaka got to pull up. I will say this, though. We have to stop letting those lists do that to us. Because we don't even know who these people are that are making these lists. You know what I mean? Who was that? Bill Boyd?
Starting point is 00:32:42 Was it Bill Boyd? Was that from the Rolling Stones? I'm not saying we don't even know who these people are they're not even showing their faces or at least i don't see them if if you really want to have an accurate list about artists you know who has to make that list the artists the artists the actual artists the artists and you got to get a plethora of artists you got to get artists from every single generation and people have to really really sit around and it has to be like one or two criterias. Singing and I guess dancing, I guess. Well, no, I wouldn't even factor in dancing.
Starting point is 00:33:09 Let's just do flat out singing and let the artists determine who's the best singer. Same thing with the rappers. Get the rappers together and figure out who's just the best rappers, just lyricists, nothing else. Not know who got the most money, who's had the most success.
Starting point is 00:33:20 Let's just talk talent. That's the only way any of these lists are going to ever work. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. Now, when we come back, we got front page news. Angela Rice here. She'll be doing some front page news.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Red, you want to play it now or when we play Top of the Hour? What you about to play? After the Top of the Hour? All right. After the Top of the Hour, we're going to play Sweet Thing full version, man. It's... Whoa, Sweet Thing. Okay, maybe not.
Starting point is 00:33:41 We're not going to play it. If you sing it, we're not going to play it. Don't you know you're my everything. No, we're not going to do it. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Whoa, Sweet thing. Okay, maybe not. We're not going to play it. If you sing it, we're not going to play it. Don't you know you're my everything. No, we're not going to do it. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Whoa! What?
Starting point is 00:33:48 What? Well, you're going to have to go crazy, because I ain't leaving my wife, damn it. I ain't leaving my wife now. What's wrong with you? Because that's what Sweet Thing is. Sweet Thing is one of the greatest side chick anthems ever. This is what's not about to happen.
Starting point is 00:34:00 You're not about to cut into this front page news. Oh, here it goes. Y'all already talked about this. No, I'm just saying, that lady was begging that man to leave her husband. You're my sweet bitch. Stop singing to me, boy. I'm not leaving my wife, Envy.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Is he singing or is he? That lady was begging that man to leave her husband. She said, love me now or I'll go crazy. Come on. No, we can't hear you, Angela. Come on. I can't hear him. It's time for front page news.
Starting point is 00:34:22 Yes, it is. Let's go. I can't hear him. Oh, you can't? Well, turn your headphones up, Angela. Oh, Lord. Oh. I can't hear him. It's time for front page news. Yes, it is. Let's go. I can't hear him. Oh, you can't? Well, turn your headphones up, Angela. Oh, Lord. Oh, I can hear him now. Lord have mercy.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Goodness gracious. Lord have mercy. I'm sorry. All right. Getting some front page news. What are we talking about? Okay. So, first up, the Washington Commander's owner, Daniel Snyder, is back in the news over some
Starting point is 00:34:40 shady business practices. It's being reported just now that four years ago, Dan Snyder took out a $55 million loan without the knowledge of the three other owners who he's now bought out. We would go to jail for this. I don't know if y'all know that because it's tantamount to bank fraud. And he didn't stop there.
Starting point is 00:34:57 He also allegedly charged the team an advertising fee of $4.5 million to put the logo on his personal jet. Kind of creative, but it sounds a little sketchy. And he didn't stop there. He allegedly charged the team $10 million to use the aircraft. And this is all in addition to his annual $10 million salary. It don't sound illegal to me.
Starting point is 00:35:17 It just sounds unethical. No, no, no, no, no. It's illegal? It's illegal to take out a business loan without your business partner's knowledge. It's illegal to do that? Absolutely. It's illegal. It's bank business loan without your business partner's knowledge. It's illegal to do that? Absolutely. It's illegal. It's bank fraud.
Starting point is 00:35:28 It really is bank fraud. Even if he's a majority owner? Yeah, I thought he was a majority owner. He was a majority owner, but you still have to inform the owners. You did not inform the owners. And his business practices, frankly, are giving Donald Trump. Like, he doesn't have any legal liability whatsoever. And he's trying to negotiate that right now. He's like, if I sell this team, I need you to guarantee me that I won't suffer any legal liability for anything that I've done in the past.
Starting point is 00:35:51 Crazy. And it's a $6 billion price tag right now on the commanders. Damn. Those other two things are just unethical, right? They're not illegal. Yeah. I think it's just shady, right? It's just like, you know, it's, you know, that you shouldn't be charging your team to advertise on your jet
Starting point is 00:36:15 give an example like especially right now in this area that we live in with social media we all have our own personal social media right correct so if we work for a company and let's say somebody wants to advertise with us through the company but they want us to advertise on our own social media, right? Correct. So if we work for a company and let's say somebody wants to advertise with us through the company, but they want us to advertise on our own social media, our social media is something else. I understand that.
Starting point is 00:36:30 So to me, that would require a different fee. That's cute. But since you brought up social media, maybe we can switch gears to TikTok. So there's good news and bad news depending on how you look at it for TikTok.
Starting point is 00:36:39 I don't know if you all have loved ones under 18 who are totally addicted to this app like my godson, Ryan. I don't let my kids on it. That are totally addicted to this app. Like my godson, Ryan. I don't let my kids on it. That is amazing. Well, help me get my godson on it. That's great, you guys.
Starting point is 00:36:50 But they just announced a daily one hour limit to screen time apps or screen time limits on the iPhone. But I would ask you to not do that and let these kids be limited to one hour a day. But can't kids just lie about the age when they sign up? Yeah, they probably could. But hopefully they can learn how to be more ethical than Dan Snyder. But also there's bad news for TikTok. The White House has already prohibited the use of TikTok on government devices. And now they are extending that to all federal government agencies.
Starting point is 00:37:34 Within the next 30 days, everyone in the federal government has to remove the app from all federal devices and systems. Over the concerns about Chinese government spying, potentially using the data to spy. And so even though TikTok is saying this is not a real thing, it's misinformation. It's been a concern enough for Congress to pass a bill. And they did that in December. My good friend Shalonda Young,
Starting point is 00:37:59 who is over the office of the management and budget director. She just put out a memo saying that it is time to remove TikTok from all federal government. Thank gosh, Alonda. This is what I don't understand, though, right? If they have that feeling and they feel like, you know, China is using this information for negative and for spying, why not ban it immediately? Why just ban it in the government building?
Starting point is 00:38:22 So if you're banning it from the government building, it's giving us a feeling as you know something that you want to ban it. Why not just ban it? Like, why are we playing? Well, so here's the thing. There is a bill being considered right now in Congress for a ban overall. The ACLU is pushing back on that. You all know that this is a time where freedom of speech, freedom of expression, all of those things come into conflict
Starting point is 00:38:45 with what may be in our best national security interest. F that. This is national security. What are we talking about? Oh, I want to be able to dance on TikTok? No, this is national security. Well, that's not all that happens on TikTok. Little kids get informed.
Starting point is 00:38:57 They use it now as their own Google. They say it's a better search engine than Google. I thank God for Shalonda. What's Shalonda's name? Shalonda Young. Shalonda Young. A black woman who heads the Office of Management and Budget.
Starting point is 00:39:07 You know, I respect this, man. Take it away from all those government officials because we tired of them embarrassing themselves by trying to jump on every TikTok challenge. When I saw Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris doing the stiff hip dance to the Uzi Vert, I knew they went too far. What is happening? That's not all they use TikTok for. I'm going to tell
Starting point is 00:39:24 Kamala, you can't keep bashing. I saw them doing the stiff hip dance, man. When did you see that? What? On TikTok. When? I don't remember. Pull it up.
Starting point is 00:39:32 They probably got, what's that called when they do the false, what are those things called? A deep fake. You saw a deep fake. I'm going to tell Kamala you're lying on air. I don't have TikTok. Why are you making this up? Anyway, now you done ran into my, I can't even get to my last clip playing with you. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Well, that is front page news. Now, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. One of the producers up here. What are we talking about? They're having a problem in their relationship. And they were asking, what is the longest you went without talking to your boyfriend, your girlfriend, or your spouse after an argument? Ooh.
Starting point is 00:40:04 What's the longest you went? 800-585-105. I'm honest with you. Last time I was in here for topics, you didn't have me tell all my business. I'm doing this. I just came for one thing, and that's all I'm doing. What about you? What's the longest you've been, Charlamagne?
Starting point is 00:40:20 What? I've been with my boo-boo for 25 years. The longest I went without talking? Probably when she broke up with me when she was in college. And we was broken up for a year. But we still talked every now and then. But it definitely was during that time frame. I don't remember the exact amount of time.
Starting point is 00:40:36 But when she disconnected from me for a year, it was definitely during that time. Yeah. I've been with my wife 28 years. And we have never gone a day without talking especially since we have kids like even if we get upset or we get always had kids now but i mean my kids my oldest kid is damn near 22 oh my youngest is one so it's like how can you not talk to your spouse when you got kids you just look stupid you know i mean i ain't never met a condom you like in your whole life. Never. Never. Never.
Starting point is 00:41:12 You never met a condom you liked in your whole life, my boy. Shout out to Magnum, though, because I was an endorser for Magnum. So shout out to Magnum. An endorser. False advertising. Okay, if you had to get that endorsement by showing what you're working with, you wouldn't have got that endorsement. You know what?
Starting point is 00:41:23 Forget it. That's not about me. How do you know? I ain't never seen no print. Stand up. What is wrong with you? That is so inappropriate. Don't ask questions you don't want to answer to. That is inappropriate.
Starting point is 00:41:32 You're sexualizing me right now. When's the last time you went without talking to a significant other, Angela Rye? I don't know. I can be a little punishing. Jesus. I mean, I can. I feel like if I get my feelings hurt, it comes out as anger. So I can be punishing.
Starting point is 00:41:50 I can cut somebody off. Normally, if I get to that point, though, it's over. Day, two days, three days, four days, week? A week. Jesus. That's a long time. All right. Let's talk about it.
Starting point is 00:42:00 800-585-1051. The longest after argument that you haven't spoke to your spouse, your boyfriend, your girlfriend, whatever it may be. Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Pick up the phone, baby.

We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're asking, what is the longest time you went without talking to your spouse, your boyfriend, your girlfriend?
Starting point is 00:42:37 Maybe you were beefing. Maybe y'all were fighting. And what's the longest period of time you went without talking to them? This actually came from our producer that's going through it now. I'm not going to lie. Me and my wife have been mad at each other. But when you got kids, you got to talk. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:42:51 It's not like you can't. Yeah, I mean, me and my wife, we've been together 25 years. We've been married since 2014. But the longest I remember us not going talking, not talking, was when in college, she had, when she was in college, she had broke up with me for like a year.
Starting point is 00:43:10 I don't even remember what year this was. This had to be like, oh, 03, 04 maybe. I don't remember what year it was, but we was broke up for a year
Starting point is 00:43:17 and like, yeah, I didn't, she wasn't answering the phone from me, nothing. So, that had to be when.
Starting point is 00:43:24 I don't remember how long we didn't talk for but i know it had to be within that that year span boy that was torture man that brings up all kind of triggers in me oh that was the worst part that was a terrible time in my life yeah i was thinking about i think maybe a day and i was traveling and we were arguing about something and then you realize like damn i gotta call her for something you always gotta call your wife for something or call your girl for something but also i don't even play like that because life is short you know what i mean and you don't ever want to be in a position where something bad happens and y'all y'all not speaking over something petty you know what i mean and then you thinking

Starting point is 00:46:36 But I'm actually engaged And um We're going on week two Without talking We live in the same house That is so stupid First of all I don't even care What the reason is Um, we're going on week two without talking. We live in the same house. That is so stupid. I'm going to tell you the reason.
Starting point is 00:46:49 First of all, I don't even care what the reason is. If y'all live in the same house and y'all not talking for two weeks, that is so stupid. Because what if something happens to either one of y'all? God forbid. And that's my argument. But I think I'm so stubborn and he's so stubborn. I don't think it really bothers either one of us. He works at night.
Starting point is 00:47:04 I work in the day. Where you from? I'm in Georgia. What's the reason y'all not talking? Tell me. The reason we're not talking is because my fiance tends to say things
Starting point is 00:47:14 that he don't really mean when he gets angry. And he likes to make up with guilt, money, date, trips. Oh. That's most men. I'm the type of person you can't do that you
Starting point is 00:47:27 just can't say what you want to say to me and things are going to be okay and we've been together four years he knows that so his birthday was last week we didn't even talk on his birthday you didn't talk to him on his birthday i need to know you on his birthday i need to know what he said to you what did he say to you he said i'm sick of going through this every other day okay what this he was talking about i have no idea i don't even know what what the argument was but because i have no idea he didn't want to explain until you're ready to explain we won't talk so guess what it's been three we're gonna go another three so why don't you ask him that doesn't seem like a cry for help just ask him him, like, yo, boo, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:48:05 What's up with you? Something going on in your life? Let's have a conversation right now. You see how easy you said that? And the response has been an easy response. Yes. The response is not going to be the response I want. So instead of arguing with you, whenever you're ready to have that true conversation, we can have it.
Starting point is 00:48:19 But until then, I'm going to keep having my fun. I go out. He go out. We still live separate lives. Well, either y'all need to go to therapy or you need to tell him, look, man, you got two more weeks because after 30 days of this car not being claimed. You know what I'm saying? You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:48:37 Well, I've already made that conclusion. We really got another couple more days. Once this week is over, we're not speaking. We're definitely going to be speaking, but it's not going to be about what he wants to speak about. Damn. Alright, well, happy birthday to him. I hope he's listening. Maybe he knows my voice. We can hear this.
Starting point is 00:48:56 Get it together. What's his name? Just tell him. Tell him you want him to get it together. Say it. Charles, I really need for you to get it together, okay? Because, baby, we at the end of our road. And I don't want to fall off the road. Okay? Alright, Tony, if you're listening, come on, you got to get it together. If you really love
Starting point is 00:49:12 this woman, you want to marry this woman, you want to spend the rest of your life with this woman, you call her and you got some things on your chest. I know it's difficult sometimes to get it off your chest, but get it off your chest so you can continue to move on and be happy and then get back in that saddle where you need to be. And if y'all need a mediator go to a therapist go sit down with a therapist a couple's therapist and y'all sit down and you know get everything out
Starting point is 00:49:33 but you know not talking to each other in the same house that is wildly unhealthy for no damn reason and you ain't gonna be in my house not talking to me for no damn two weeks that ain't your house it's their house well their house you know. You know what I mean. All right. Thank you, Mama. Appreciate it. Jesus. I mean, they ain't having sex either. No. Ain't nobody got time for that.

Starting point is 00:56:02 um you know i'm virgo so i get upset i get attitudes and it gets to the point i'm gonna always need my wife for something oh no i mean like you know me and my wife been married since 2014 but we've been together since you know 98 so we've been together it'll be 25 years this year so it was definitely she broke up with me for a year and like i think it was either 02 or 03 and she definitely was uh not talking to me like she definitely had disconnected uh from me so it had to be within that time span i don't know how long we went without talking but it definitely was within that year we didn't talk uh a lot yeah somebody always told me if you if you're having a problem with your wife or your husband the worst thing you do is not talk
Starting point is 00:56:41 and the second worst thing you could do is leave the house bro the worst thing you can do with anybody you having a problem with is not communicate like i really truly believe that most situations can be resolved if people just communicate nobody likes to communicate with each other we either don't talk or when we do talk to each other we don't tell each other the truth about what we're mad at we be all passive aggressive with it you know i mean like just lay it out on the Lay it out on the table Don't worry about hurting Other person's feelings Just get it out
Starting point is 00:57:07 That's the only way You can actually I believe Have healthy relationships Is to communicate Hello who's this Tatiana From Jersey

Starting point is 00:57:23 We probably went like Four hours People had stuff Getting mad at me one day And storming out the house Just to go and sit All right. What's the longest you've been without talking to your boo? Me and my husband, we probably went like four hours. He caught up getting mad at me one day and storming out the house just to go and sit in front of the house in the car. We do stupid stuff like that. So maybe like four hours. And then he realized he needs you for something and got to come back in the house, right? Of course. You know, you got a wife, you know.
Starting point is 00:57:39 That'd be funny, though, when guys leave the house acting like we're going somewhere. No, damn well, we ain't got nowhere to go. Nowhere to go. Right. I was like, what are leave the house acting like we're going somewhere. Knowing damn well we ain't got nowhere to go. Nowhere to go. Right. I was like, he wasn't answering me nothing. The whole time he's sitting in front of the house. Thank you, mama. Four hours ain't too bad, though.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Four hours is actually necessary. Even in a healthy relationship, when y'all not beefing over nothing, sometimes you just got to get away from your significant other. You need your alone time. Hello, who's this? Good morning, it's Nika. Nika, where you calling from? I'm calling from Florida.

Starting point is 00:58:46 but I can't you know because it's not it's nothing in the streets for women you know stuff like that so he's like a kind of I can do it but you can't because you're a woman type of person so that really like gets under my skin with him so you know he did it again you know came in his house late it's crazy so I was upset, of course. So I had to show my true colors. No cooking, no cleaning, none of that nicky, none of that stuff. So I was mad for about a week, but

Starting point is 01:00:31 can you see why he might have made that mistake no okay is that him in the background no that's my son okay i'm with you so what happened how'd y'all figure it out? Long story. Well, you said... I don't want y'all calling up here when y'all triggered. I want y'all calling y'all therapists, okay? Oh, boy. Because these stories be triggering y'all so bad.

Starting point is 01:01:46 And then it's all because of you. That's not because of me. It's because of the conversation that we was having triggered her. Because we asked her specifically, why didn't you talk to your significant other? So she had to think about that, and that triggered her. She had to go back and think about that man cheating on her. No, you asked her how the other girl looked. You didn't have to go there.

Starting point is 01:02:13 I understand, you know, especially I understand disconnecting when you think you're going to say something that you regret. I respect that. But God dang, a week and a half and all of that, that's kind of crazy to be living with somebody and not talking. And life is too short. And you do not want your last words to somebody you love to be silence. You don't want that. Well, yeah. And let me shout out to my wife because she is the communicator in our relationship.
Starting point is 01:02:40 When it's just crazy, she's like, let's stop what we're doing. Let's figure this out, and then we can continue on. That's her. I'm more like, I got to keep it moving.

Starting point is 01:05:39 We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Travis Scott. Rumor has it. Rumor, rumor has it. Call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty patty. I am gossiping. This is the Rumor Report.
Starting point is 01:05:49 I mean, I guess we on The Breakfast Club. This is where the tea spills, right? Yes, on The Breakfast Club. Now, Travis Scott is wanted for questioning by New York PD, NYPD, after a man claimed the rapper punched him in the face at a Manhattan nightclub. Now, it was a sound engineer. Allegedly, Travis Scott was going to do a DJ set. Now, the guy works for Club Nebula in Midtown. And they got into a verbal dispute.
Starting point is 01:06:12 They said that escalated into a physical altercation. Now, the 52-year-old victim alleged that Scott, Travis Scott, punched him in the face and did $12,000 worth of damage to an audio speaker and a video screen. I mean, you don't know what's true and what's not true, but it's just hard for me to, you know, believe these stories in 2023 and there's never no video. You know what I mean? In a nightclub. There was a little video, but it wasn't of him destroying anything. You could just tell Travis Scott was in a DJ booth and it looked like somebody was in
Starting point is 01:06:40 the DJ booth and he said, get the F out. That was it. Oh, don't show him hitting nobody. No, don't show him. No. No, don't show him. No, it doesn't show him. But that's what I'm saying. We live in an era where nine times out of ten
Starting point is 01:06:48 when you hear stories like that about in a nightclub or at a concert, if it really went down, there's going to be some type of video. Whether it's video of the actual incident
Starting point is 01:06:55 or video of the aftermath, something. Right. Now, Andy King is back. You remember Andy King? Come on, man. How can you forget Big A.K.? Man, that's Big A.K., bruh, bruh.
Starting point is 01:07:04 Now, if you don't remember Andy King, he was part of the whole Fyre Festival. One of the most loyal humans you would ever want to meet. When we talk about having somebody on your team that's going to take one for the team, this man is one of those individuals. Yeah, so let me help y'all refresh. So the Fyre Festival, of course, was a cluster F, and they couldn't get water over, and they didn't have enough money to pay to get the water over for the people.
Starting point is 01:07:26 So Andy used his head. No, Andy had said to Billy and the gang, you need to pay us $175,000 in cash today for us to release the water. Billy called and said, Andy, we need you to take one big thing for the team. And I said,
Starting point is 01:07:42 oh my gosh, I've been taking something for the team every day. He said, well, you're our wonderful gay leader and if you will go down and suck cunningham's who's the head of customs and get him to clear all of the containers with water you will save this festival and i literally drove home took a shower i i i drank some mouthwash and i got to his office fully prepared to suck his man drop on the clues bombs for andy king why is there no statue of andy king built yet how is there not a statue of andy king built with the mouth open make one of them little
Starting point is 01:08:21 fountains where the water shoots out i guess the water the water would probably have to shoot in the water would shoot in yeah yeah well that's not why i'm bringing andy up i'm just you know refreshing who andy is well it seems like billy and andy are back and now they are selling cheese sandwiches for a good cause andy oh my god billy round two yes but first we're going to Coachella. Whoa, whoa, wait. This didn't go so well last time. Breaking news, Billy McFarlane's Fire Pig fights model five. And there's so much that can go wrong. Not this time. Lincoln Bio. Cut.
Starting point is 01:09:07 Well, they have a new venture. They're selling grilled cheese sandwiches at a place called 7th Street Burger in New York City. And Andy said if you don't like his cheese sandwiches, he'll suck you. What? That's the consolation prize. What? He believes these sandwiches are so good that if you don't like this grilled cheese sandwich, he'll suck you. All right.
Starting point is 01:09:28 Okay? So all you kinky people, don't go there biting into them sandwiches, acting like you don't like them. Okay? Jesus Christ. All right. And lastly, I don't know if you guys watch Real Housewives of Atlanta. Do you, Charlamagne? No.
Starting point is 01:09:40 Okay. Well, Drew Sedora, she's on the show. I think you know Drew. Not only is she on the Housewives, she's also an actress. She's been in The Game, Step It Up, and a host of others. She is filing divorce from her husband. Tell me more, girl. What else you got?
Starting point is 01:09:53 Tell me more. Give me the details of this tea. Okay, well, Drew Sidora has large allegations against estranged husband Ralph Pittman claiming in an amended divorce filing that he's a serial cheater girl and an adulterer. I thought that's the same thing. But that he abused her mentally, financially at one point and got physically aggressive.
Starting point is 01:10:14 So right now it's in court. Let me tell you how petty this child. She filed for divorce at 12. He filed at 1 o'clock. So it's nasty in Atlanta. You know what though? That is a good point you just made about adultery, man. What's that? You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:10:26 Because I don't know why they say like adultery and cheating are the same thing, right? Yeah. So what if I don't know the definition of adultery and I get accused of adultery and I be like,
Starting point is 01:10:34 I did not do adultery. I cheated. You're going to sound stupid. You're going to sound stupid. You know what I'm saying? I wonder what's the difference. What's the difference between adultery and cheating?
Starting point is 01:10:42 Nothing, right? I don't think so. But adultery just sounds worse. It just sounds worse than the think so. It can be, but adultery just sounds worse. It just sounds worse in the deposition. It does. They committed adultery. It does. All right.
Starting point is 01:10:50 Well, I mean, I watch the show, so I hope they get it back together. I know sometimes on these shows, you know, it shows the negative side and not always the positive things of these shows because it's drama at the end of the day. It's a reality show, but I hope they do get it together. I hope they're able to work it out if that's what they both want. And salute to both Drew and Ralph.ph man go back to andy king did we ever find out if andy king had actually had to give fellatio to that person did that ever happen no i didn't do it remember he said he wanted he would not he wanted to do he was gonna do it and he didn't have to oh he didn't have to again all right i just wanted you know i want to talk

Starting point is 01:36:26 business you know what i mean like it's a real business you're a sex worker you were a sex worker for a little moment see i was just um what you call them not the sex worker i didn't really do no work i just got 350 just for being a real girl so what did you what did you get so so it was just about the money like that there was no long-term play it was just about the money. There was no long-term play. It was just for that money in the moment. So my friend was homeless. My friend was homeless and he got put out and he needed money.
Starting point is 01:36:54 You know what I'm saying? So I was like, he was like, can you do this for me? And I was like, yeah, you know what I'm saying? I don't want to see you out there. I stay with my mama so you can't come stay here. So we got to get you somewhere to stay stay I get it That is team playing You are a team player
Starting point is 01:37:09 Alright I hope that dude is still your friend to this day I hope y'all still cool Yeah, 20 years in We still cool And you know, he got him a nice place to stay Got him a good job Now he ain't doing that hard work no more
Starting point is 01:37:22 And they ain't gotta play the real girl no more You know what I'm saying? That's what I'm talking about. All right. Well, thank you, Mom, Mama. I don't want to play this game with you anymore. I'm done. I don't want to play this game with you anymore.
Starting point is 01:37:34 I mean, we asked for team players, and we got team players. You know what I'm saying? And, you know, some people are just willing to go above and beyond. I'm not mad at it. Jesus. I'm not mad at it at all. Is there a moral to the story? That's the moral of the story.
Starting point is 01:37:46 Some people are willing to go above and beyond. And, you know, I don't even want people to think about this in the literal sense of what Andy King did. I don't even want them to think about, you know, what that young lady did, you know, giving up sex. Just the moral of the story is you have to be willing to go above and beyond, you know, for your team. Like, you know, people nowadays like to do the bare minimum. They like to do just enough but then they want to be you know overly rewarded for doing that bare minimum and just enough no if you want to be overly rewarded then you have to go overboard jesus all right all right well let's get to the rumors right now rumor has it rumor rumor has it call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty this is the rumor report
Starting point is 01:38:26 i mean i guess we on the breakfast club this is where the tea spills right right on the breakfast club all right let's get to the rumor since we were talking andy king i think it's only right to continue that conversation all right now uh a gentleman by the name of leonard also talks about a situation where he would want to suck some D. with that bet really I can't wait when he's back and you're gonna be wrong and you got to suck some why would a company not making 20 billion dollars in revenue risk bringing in one guy that's gonna after size so many people away from your brand why would you do that football soccer fight for them say you know what y'all in business no one. Now, sources say that Adidas and Kanye West have been speaking to...
Starting point is 01:39:29 Cite your sources. No, cite your sources. Because the crazy part about this situation is everybody keeps saying this, but nobody has a legitimate source because no legitimate sources are saying this. You know who's saying this? Like, just the internet. Like, it's just a random thing. Don't you think if that really had happened and they had come to an agreement, it would be, like, everywhere by now?
Starting point is 01:39:49 Don't you think so? Maybe. It's not a maybe. And salute to my guy, Andrew Schultz, Akash, and Mark from Flagrant, too. I did that show this week. And I'm going to tell you something, man. When it comes to extreme bets, bets that I know I'm going to win. I'm going to always put the mouth on the line. Okay.
Starting point is 01:40:10 All right. Because I know it's never going to happen. All right. If it did happen, it's not like I was going to ever pay up. So, you know, I guess you can't call that ass betting, but mouth betting. That's mouth betting. It's lip service betting. That's all it is it's lip service betting that's
Starting point is 01:40:25 all it is lip service now draymond green says uh he doesn't necessarily love the term black history month and this is the reason why this is actually the first time you've seen me in a black history month uh shirt all black history month and it's very intentional and i really just threw this shirt on because i didn't have another shirt to throw on but black history month at some point can we get rid of it like at some point why why we got to keep getting the shortest month to celebrate our history you got governors want to take our history out of schools and I'm not going to be the fool to go say yeah we get celebrated for 28 days so at some point I'd like to get rid of it it's you know we're making all these changes in the world can't talk about these people can't talk about those people can't say this can't say that So at some point, I'd like to get rid of it. It's, you know, we're making all these changes in the world.
Starting point is 01:41:06 Can't talk about these people. Can't talk about those people. Can't say this. Can't say that. At some point, it's time to get rid of Black History Month. Teach my history from January 1st to December 31st and then do it again. Draymond, you all over the place with that, with whatever argument you're trying to make. Yes, I do feel like, you know, Black history should be taught year round and it will be,
Starting point is 01:41:26 but we don't need to get rid of no black nothing. We need more black everything. Okay, I love Black History Month. I love how people celebrate Black History Month. I love how corporate America celebrates Black History Month. And in an era, like he said, where books are being banned and AP African American courses are being canceled, we need all the celebrations of black history
Starting point is 01:41:44 that we can get. And we need all the celebrations of black history that we that we can get and we need to make black history a real moment to teach and not just for that month make it a real moment to teach throughout the year because clearly they don't want these things being taught so why would you want to get rid of something that uh why would you want to help them get rid of things like they're getting rid of these things because they don't want our history taught so why would you want black history removed all right that makes no sense you're helping you're helping those white supremacists you know do their bidding that makes no sense trying to say he was trying to say it in a way instead of just doing it one month do
Starting point is 01:42:15 it all year long that's what he was trying to but that's what you should have said but don't say get rid of black history especially if in the same breath you're going to talk about how these governors are you know trying to get rid of these AP African-American courses. And they are, you know, banning books written by black authors. You don't want to get rid of Black History Month. We need more black history. If that's what he's trying to say, that's what he should say. But don't say get rid of Black History Month.
Starting point is 01:42:37 Because trust me, Ron DeSantis didn't be sitting around somewhere like, yeah, that's what I'm talking about, Draymond. All the white supremacists, yes, let's get rid of Black History Month. Draymond Green even said we should get rid of it. I don't think he meant it like that. Yeah, don't be that guy because they'll use you. They'll use you to be that guy. Now, Kevin Durant also talks about his relationship with Kyrie Irving and if they had a conversation before he asked for the trade.
Starting point is 01:42:58 I'm disappointed that we didn't finish the season. But I also know we're all our own separate entities. We all move and do the things that we wanna do for our careers. And I can't fault somebody for doing that, even though it might have been at our expense as a team, but that's who he is and that's what he wanted to do. And it's like, I can't have a problem with that. Like I said, I wanna act like I wasn't upset that we didn't finish the season, cuz I love playing with Kyle.
Starting point is 01:43:23 I wanted to continue this, I wanted to see where we can go with that that part of it because I love to play that's all I'm focused on in this league is hooping you know not that other what Kyle doing behind the scenes with his contract negotiations was like that's him and I trust that he's gonna make the right moves for him and his family to move forward you got another clip talking about the business of it no that clip ain't in it now he just talks about a business and it being a business and how they feel about it and how you know he just like he says concentrate on hooping and this is also a business so he has to do his best for each individual person all right lastly i'm loving this i'm seeing a lot of artists doing
Starting point is 01:43:59 their own festivals yesterday we announced uh j cole and his festival. Now Nelly is announcing his own festival. Nelly got a festival? The Hot and Hear Festival. Kerry Hilson, Chingy, Jaro, Rick Ross, Fat Joe, T.I., Akon, Neo, and Nelly closing it out. That's got to be an indoor venue, right? Because you can't call it Hot and Hear and you're outside. Well, that's in Toronto. And that's June 24th.
Starting point is 01:44:23 Salute to Nelly. That's dope. Yeah, shout out to Nelly. And that is your rumor report. Yes, and I'm just Googth. Salute to Nelly. That's dope. Yeah, shout out to Nelly. And that is your rumor report. Yes, and I'm just Googling. Just had to make sure. Had to Google Kanye West Adidas to make sure. There's no reputable source yet?
Starting point is 01:44:33 No, I keep telling y'all that. I can't wait. I can't wait. You have to pay somebody up. I'm actually reading a great article right now. I read this already, but it says Adidas is going to lose $530 million if it doesn't sell its Yeezy line after breaking deal with Kanye West. This was two days ago. And there's a guy named Tom Nickick and he's an economic analyst. And he said he said the price of the Adidas Yeezy range from 200 to 600 dollars.
Starting point is 01:44:57 There are several options to sell this stock, such as rebranding the shoes, selling them at a discount or or renaming them as Yeezy Zombies. However, these ideas are risky propositions because it would still look like they were benefiting from a collaboration with someone who made blatant anti-Semitic statements. I don't know where y'all be getting y'all information from and running with it. I don't think people will be upset if they rebranded and put it back out because at the end of the day, Adidas is about to lose $530 million and they rebranded to get those shoes off, especially if they do it at a cheap price, like a break-even price, I don't think people would be upset.
Starting point is 01:45:27 Yeah, but they're a company that also makes $22 billion in revenue a year. They're not going to bring back one person based off $500 million in inventory and risk people ostracizing a $22 billion a year company. They're not doing that for $500 million. They'll just take the L on the $500 million.
Starting point is 01:45:48 That's all. All right. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. The People's Choice Mix is up next. Let's go. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.
