When we come back, we got front page news. Mimi will be joining us. Don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. And we got us in a rest and peace, of course, to Nipsey Hustle. Today was the day. that he passed.

Oh, man. So let's start the show with some nipsies. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ NV. Jess O'Larious. Sholomey and the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.

Let's get in some front page news. Now, last night, NCAA women's basketball tournament, South Carolina beat TCU 7852. I don't like how you sped through that one. Slow that one down. Okay, South Carolina beat TCU 7852 to go to our six straight final four. Drop on the clues bombs for the icon that is done stately. Okay. Raven Johnson in the whole game.

Also, Texas beat Michigan last night, 77 to 41. What's up, Mimi? Good morning, Envy. Jess Chalamine, how y'allam? How y'all doing this morning? Good morning. So we start this morning with some relief for TSA workers across the country. So after more than six weeks without pay during the Homeland Security shutdown, many TSA agents, they are now finally receiving back pay.

But some workers say the checks were shorted. than what they expected. Let's listen. This morning, I did receive a deposit into my account as many of my colleagues have. But unfortunately, it was not the full amount owed. So we're still waiting on to be made whole with that. Officers have gone into debt. Credit has been shot. Officers have been evicted.

Cars have been repossessed. So in order, you know, that money is needed in order to get some sense of normalcy. back to officers' everyday lives. Yes, TSA agents definitely were telling me that yesterday when I was coming to the airport. They said they got, I think, two-thirds of their check or something like that. Hey, they can't win for losing, y'all. That's so sad. Yeah, so officials say that the rest of that back pay,

it should come on the next pay cycle, but there's still a bigger issue here. There's still no clear answer yet on whether TSA workers will keep getting paid if Homeland Security, if the Homeland Security shutdown will prevent them from getting, continuous paychecks as this goes on. In the meantime, there is some relief for travelers, security lines at some airports are starting to ease now that more TSA officers are back at work after finally getting paid. But officials warn that if regular paychecks don't continue, those long lines could quickly return. And meanwhile, yeah, we are now on day 46 of the Homeland Security shutdown. President Trump, he's now urging Congress to cut their resource short

and returned to Washington and try and end this shutdown. Lawmakers, they left on that two-week recess without reaching a deal to fund the Department of Homeland Security. And now there is growing criticism on lawmakers on both sides. After Senator Lindsey Graham, he was spotted at Disney World in Florida, and another senator was spotted at a casino in Las Vegas. Now, while this is all happening while thousands of workers are still going without pay. And the main sticking point, again, it remains immigration in four. the House and Senate, they still cannot agree on how to fund those programs and that disagreement is holding everything up.

So the White House, they're now calling on Congress to come back and pass a funding bill. Here is White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt. He said that he'll host a big Easter dinner here at the White House if Congress will come back and fight the Democrats on this issue, which we should do. Because again, the Democrat Party is in the wrong here. They have voted seven times against funding the Department of Homeland. insecurity, which is completely egregious with everything we have going on in the world. And these brave men and women who serve DHS deserve to get their paychecks. President wants to see that happen, and he wants Congress to come back to get it done.

I think it's political malpractice that lawmakers still get paychecks. Meanwhile, everyday working class people who make our world go around are not. For sure, for sure. And Democrats are pushing back on what Leavitt said this morning. They argue that they've been at the negotiating table seven times, and it was Republicans who refuse to offer any comments and solutions on how to rain in ice. So we will continue to watch that. And coming up at 7, a case that is now exposing what some are calling a major loophole in the housing law.

We'll talk about it and get into it at 7. I was going to also ask you, more and more TSA workers going back to work now, because I know people have been traveling the last couple days and it said it hasn't been as crazy as expected. Friday, a lot of them took off yesterday. A lot of them were back. They were back. I could have school yesterday, and I was talking to the kids. agents. So they were telling me that

a lot of them came back. Yes, thank. Yes, Charlotte, thank you. A lot of them are back, but still it doesn't, more than 500 have quit. I think it's like 512, something like that. They've now quit the agency. And so, I mean, with pay coming in, they're hoping that more will come back and ICE

agents, they said that will be there until they can get this all figured out. All right. Just don't quit to start a podcast. I'm telling you right now, I know your job may not seem so stable, but I promise you it's more stable than podcast. All right. Everybody else, get it off your chest.

800-585-105-1. If you need the vent, phone lines are wide open. Call us up right now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Wait, get it up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Keep calling.

800-585-105-1. We want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Alicia. Alicia, what's up? Good morning. Hey, good morning, Jess. I'm calling from Indiana.

I called, like, last week. I was talking about something, but whatever. So I used to work at TSA in Arizona, and I also still have a home girl that still works there, and it's been very stressful on her down there. And I feel like a lot of the times that we don't talk about the mental part of it all, they're not getting paid. You expect them to come to work, and then just be happy. Like, because, you know, being TSA, you do have to have a certain level of professionalism about just something.

you're going to be okay to do what you're doing and she's like it's hard to want to come in here to smile and actually we actually liked our job at PSA but this she didn't even have time to recoup from the last shutdown to this shutdown to even do anything I could imagine yeah I don't think people realize that 69% of you know Americans live paycheck to paycheck like literally like so if you miss one paycheck man your whole life is up in yeah and she's like I don't know how many times that I can call my bills company, you know, credit cards and Cardinal and tell them like, oh, the government is shut down, but I can't pay you guys, but eventually I'll be able to.

Like, she was like, I don't even know what to tell them because I don't even have a date on when I might have some money. That's crazy. And it's not like people care, right? Like, if I was a landlord, I would, hey, I mean, that's easy to say, man, you know, you should give people some relief, but the landlord got bills that he got to pay his land. The landlord might be living check and check.

Yeah. Yeah. pay that mortgage, you know what I mean? And then your child care, wherever your kids are, the babysitter, they got to pay their bills. And the school,

you got to pay for your school. Right. And she was like with, she was like, um, her apartment when she goes in there to tell them like, I still haven't received the check. She's like,

they starting to side eye and me like, girl, we can have to put you out if you don't come up with something. And she's like, I don't know what to do. And then last, last shutdown she did a lot of overtime.

They didn't even compensate her for all the overtime she did. Wow. That's crazy. That's horrible, man. Yeah. And then they still expect, you know, the TSA members to come to work and be happy. Yeah.

And be polite. Like, they get paid in weeks. Is that why you quit? Is that why you quit? No, I quit for other reasons. But I loved it there, though. I did love it. And the Sky Harbor is very, very busy.

And then she said a lot of people are frustrated because ICE is just standing around not doing nothing. And y'all expect us to train these people coming in and not doing nothing on their phones, stuff that we're not allowed to do. But then they're getting paid while we're just standing here, not being paid, but we're expected to do a certain level of performance. That's crazy. I thought about that, too, when ICE agents were asking for pictures. Because I'm like TSA agents ain't never asked for no pictures.

Oh, my God, ICE agents was asking you for pictures. Well, one of them did, yeah. I am. Yeah, TSA agents. They're not allowed to. Yeah, you're not allowed to. I think unless they go over. Yeah, they're going to corner.

Dumb. Oh, my God. We got the ladies coming up when we talked about. Yes. Tyler Perry, because he wants you all the people to stop lying on him. We're going to clear some things up. All right. We'll get into that next.

It's the breakfast club. Good morning. You'll talk, L.Cube. Yeah. I'm not dumbing myself. I'm the homeguard that knows a little bit about everything and everything. The little brown girls look at you and go, I want to be like you. Take me through that, take me through that.

Ain't about twin. None twin in this room. We both both. We don't. We don't. Ignore him. Just go with it. Ignore him.

Let me text. Yeah. So good morning, y'all. Good morning. So yesterday, Tyler Perry's team called me. You guys know Tyler Perry was trying to get the money to the TSA workers in Atlanta, Hartford-Jackson International Airport, right? Yes.

So on Friday, they figured out a way to do it. They basically gave out $1,000 gift cards. He gave up to $250,000 to the TSA workers there, right? But then there was this, it was a local in Atlanta that did a story that the money was then taken back by whoever, supervisor or whatever at the airport. and that the TSA workers were not allowed to have the money because of that whole conversation about can you gift, can you not? And remember, he had issues when he went there or his team went there trying to give out cash, all right? So they caught yesterday because they're like, we want to clear this up.

No one has contacted us to give back any gift cards whatsoever. And they wanted to make it clear that they went through all the proper protocols to make sure that these TSA workers would get their pay. And they wanted to put this out because they wanted the TSA workers to know that if anyone there is telling them that they should have to give back any money, They need to speak to supervisors because it should be there to have because of the protocols that they went through. So Tyler Perry and his team, they worked with the assistant federal security director, which the local in Atlanta was saying that this team is the person that was issued a statement saying that they had to give the money back. But they're saying, no, we work directly with this team, the assistant federal security director with TSA. They went through all the proper protocols. That person actually cleared the gift cards so that they were able to give them out and they took it through legal before they gave anything out because they wanted.

to make sure that if they promised that this would happen and the TSA agents knew this was happening, they'd been able to get their money because they've been through enough. Man, leave those TSA workers alone. Let them TSA workers eat, okay? If somebody wants to get him a gift, let them receive it. And furthermore, if I'm a TSA working and somebody say, you got to give back this $1,000 gift card,

well, come get it, God damn it. Come get it. You come get it. You come take it from me. How many CVS and Walgreens did Tala Perry have to go do to get $250,000 worth of gift cards? I don't know. But I love the fact that they do it. That they figured it out.

That is amazing. I was told his assistant was actually the person that worked directly with the federal security director or the assistant federal security director because they were just trying to figure out how can we get this done because we want to help them. And drop on the clues bars for Tyler Perry. Let them TSA agents eat. Like, lead him alone. Like, is it that serious?

Why are you bothering the people for? I think it's just rules and regulations around things because they're, you know, their employees. They usually do it because they don't want to feel like they're paying so people can get through. Tali Perry don't fly commercial anyway. If somebody did that for that. The ICE agents that were working at the airports, nobody would care. I promise you. If somebody did the same exact thing to the ICE agents that were working at the airport,

nobody would care. It wouldn't even be an issue. Yeah. Well, it shouldn't matter. Like, Sholomey said, then people should have their money. Like, Tyler Perry did it the proper way he gave it to the manager. The manager distributed the money. Yep.

It should be able to keep their bread. Like, I don't know how he did it, but what if he talked to the manager, got all the employee's names and gave it to him, you know, off hours. I don't even remember. Yeah, because even with a flight attendant, like, When I used to fly, we weren't allowed to accept tips or anything at all. That's stupid. That's stupid.

The flight attendant gets your food, get your beverages, get your drinks the whole flight. You can't give them. What if the tip is don't wear orange kitten heels? That's not a good tip. Oh, my God, that's crazy. He's so mad at my pump. I ain't even talking to you. Yeah, mind your business.

Go ahead. Anyway, yes, I have given attendance, flight attendants tips. Some of them do take them. You look like an emmerch flight attendant right now? First of all, thank you. I wish you like a flight attendant on Emirates right now. Thank you. I appreciate that.

No, shut up. More spirit. It's just, right. How do you know, you've been on there? Now, it's brown. Brown and spirit. It's yellow. Oh, I don't know.

The shirt is red. Shut up. But it's red. It is red, yes. Emmer's is a good airline. Emmer's is great. They come and recruit you. Like, when I was trying to Delta,

they used to come on our flights and recruit the girls to go over to Emerson. Thank you. I appreciate you. And being a flight attendant is a very tough job, okay? So just, all right. I'm not a fly. No, I'm talking to him.

Oh, all right. Okay. I'm not like it. Nothing in the airport is easy, baby. Okay. All right. Am I lying? We're not talking about my hat.

They usually have something hanging off the hat too, but that's it. Yeah, I mean, that's, that was it. I was trying to move on, but then they start grabbing all the things off. Frontiers, the Brown. Yes. But, go ahead. But yeah, she's just wanted y'all to know. And I will say if there's any updates there, because they did reach back out to that security

director's team just to make sure that nothing is happening in the airport that is stopping these TSA workers from getting that money, but that we know of up until this morning, everything is fine. No one's reached back out to Tali Perry and the scene. Now, moving on. So, Brandy, I told you guys that she would be receiving her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Congratulations. Yes, congratulations to Brandy.

Was Ray J there? I did not see Ray J. How Ray J and get to speak? You don't. Isn't he on tour, though? Like, he's somewhere like performing something? But Ray J, remember about a week ago when we were in here talking about the fact that experience Brito Mar.

Live in Toronto IHard Radio wants to send you and a friend With flights from TripCentral.C.A. Two nights at Sheridan Center, Toronto. Tickets to Bruno Mars and $1,000 cash. Don't believe me, just watch. Download the free IHard Radio app. Listen to Iheart new music for 10 minutes.

Win your way to Bruton Mars. Will you be? You listen is another chance to win. You know, Roaldol. The writer who thought up Willie Wonka, Matilda, and the BFG. But did you know he was? was also a spy.

Was this before he wrote his stories? It must have been. Our new podcast series, The Secret World of Roll Doll, is a wild journey through the hidden chapters of his extraordinary, controversial life. His job was literally to seduce the wives of powerful Americans.

What? And he was really good at it. You probably won't believe it either. Okay, I don't think that's true. I'm telling you, the guy was a spy. Did you know Doll got cozy with the Roosevelt's? Played poker with Harry Truman and had a long affair with a congresswoman.

And then he took his talents to Hollywood, where he worked alongside Walt Disney and Alfred Hitchcock, before writing a hit James Bond film. How did this secret agent wind up as the most successful children's author ever? And what darkness from his covert past seeped into the stories we read as kids. The true story is stranger than anything he ever wrote. Listen to the secret world of Roll Dahl on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. If you're trying to keep up with everything happening on and off the court, we've got you covered on the podcast, flagrant and funny.

You look at the top four number one seeds. What do you think UCLA is going to do? Break down that for me, my friend. Obviously, Yukon is the overwhelming favorite in this tournament. But I'll be honest, I think people are kind of sleeping on Texas. Experts are suggesting that UCLA is the number one challenger to Yukon and that right after that would be Texas. S&C is so deep and so thinking just about everything.

It really is annoying. So it's UCLA, Texas, South Carolina, L.A., L. issue. Only ones that could possibly upset Yukon.

handgun was recovered at the scene. From I-Heart podcasts and Best Case Studios, this is Worshack, murder at City Hall. How could this have happened in City Hall? Somebody tell me that. July 2003, Councilman James E. Davis arrives at New York City Hall with a guest. Both men are carrying concealed weapons. And in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead. Now, everybody in the chambers docked.

A shocking public murder. Get down, get down. Those are shots. Those are shots. Get down. A charismatic politician. You know, he just bent the rules all the time. I still have a weapon.

And I could shoot you. And an outsider with a secret. He alleged he was a victim of flat down. That may or may not have been political. That may have been about sex. Listen to Roershack, murder at City Hall, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

I'm Lori Siegel, a long-time tech. journalists. And consider my new podcast, mostly human, your bridge to the future. Anyone can now be an entrepreneur. Anyone can build an app. And it's very empowering. Each week, I'll speak to the people building that future. And we're going to break down what all of this innovation actually means for you. What I come to realize is that when people think that they're dating these AI companion, they're actually dating the companies that create this. We're experiencing one of the greatest tech accelerations in human history. And let's be honest, that can be messy.

There's no playbook for what to do when an AI model hallucinates a story about you. But it's my belief that we should all benefit from this moment. Mostly Human will show you how. My goal is to give you the playbook, so you can benefit. The reason I say agency is because if we can give power back to people, then I think that's probably the best thing we can do for your mental health. Listen to Mostly Human on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

or wherever you listen to your favorite shows. She would get the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Ray Jett posted that video. And in that video, he mentioned that he may or may not be on the story. Y'all want to take a listen to that. Apology? We didn't get to play it last week. Let's take a listen.

Brandy. Listen, I'm going to go all out for who I believe in and who I love. And Brandy has been the one who has put me on, who has given me my opportunities to become successful in every aspect from acting to singing to TV. And the list goes on. I wouldn't be here and I wouldn't be where I am today without Brandy. Right.

And so this apology is to Brandy and Brandy only and to Brandy's brand. Some of the things I said was absolutely concerning, disrespectful and heartless. And I feel bad. I feel bad that I tied you into it. No matter if I'm banned from coming on tour or going to the Hollywood Walk of Fame, they're all done. That's fine.

Yeah, so I didn't see Ray J and any of the photos. I saw her taking pictures with her daughter, her, you know, all that. But I didn't see him. So I can't answer if he was there or not. And I texted him and he didn't respond back to me last night. I didn't really care. Yeah. Well, I just, people weren't looking for him though.

But in other, in other news about the walk of fame star. He loves his sister. Yeah, and he loves his friend. She loves him too. Yes. Brandy accepted the star on the Walk of Fame and she shared a few words just about, you know, this being a dream come true. Let's take a listen. Brandi!

Thank you. Thank you. You guys, I'm from McComb, Mississippi. I came to Hollywood as a young girl in the seventh grade. Back then, I was just a little girl with a big dream. Seeing the stars on the Walk of Fame lit something in me. It made me believe. It made me affirm over my own life.

I'm going to sing my way onto one of these stars. And I did. A star on the Walk of Fame is a definition of legacy. It doesn't just celebrate your success. It cements your story. It is a symbol that says, you didn't just arrive. You endure.

You didn't just dream. You became to every mentor, collaborator, creative, and believer who poured into me along the way. You are a part of this star. Because purpose may be personal, but destiny is never meant to be carried alone. And most of all, I stand as living proof that what you speak over your life with faith, consistency, and belief can one day meet you in reality. I love her. I love her. I did not know that she was from a coma, Mississippi.

Yes. I knew that either. I think I always thought that they were from LA. Yeah, Limer Park. Yes. What Moisha was from? I did not know. Well, as we rap, Issa Ray also shared some words there too.

And this was their first time actually meeting, even though she spoke on the Walk of Family. Let's take a listen. Hi, Randy. Nice to meet you. I'm so, so honored to be here. I wasn't going to use the two minutes to just sing, have you ever loved somebody so much and makes you cry,

but I won't do that in front of you or to you guys. It was really Moisha that made me understand what was possible. It was the first show that I'd ever seen told from an ordinary black teenage girl's point of view. Brandy made Moesha someone I wanted to befriend, the girl I wanted to be at a time when beauty standards on television looked nothing like us. Brandy was the standard. Without Brandy as Moesha, there's no parkers, there's no girlfriends, there's no insecure. And honestly, without Moisha, there's no me as a writer. Thank you for showing a little girl from L.A.

That her story was worth telling. And this star has always been yours. Salute to Issa Ray. I love Yer Ray. That's exactly what Moesha was for me, too. The first show that I've said. That and the Parkers, Moisha and the Parkers. To have any other Ray at that ceremony,

other than Ray J. It's nuts. Especially being that Issa Ray and Brandi never met before. Brandy said that she's always admired. I was told Bray. He's always admire Issa. And because Issa always talks about how Brandy was the inspiration for Aqa Black Girl, which then got her to insecure.

That's why they connected. And that's their baby Facebook, too, when he talked about Whitney Houston and Brandy's relationship as well. Well, salute to Brandy. That don't make sense, but it is what it is. How much sidewalk is on that walk of fame? I've walked on it before, but damn, they've got to have more stars than sidewalk at this point. It's blocks and blocks and blocks. It's just certain prime areas.

Like, near the Adobe Theater is a prime area. It's certain areas you want to be. Like certain areas is like kind of the hood Where you don't want to be But in certain areas Why wouldn't I want to be in the hood? Because it's, well I shouldn't say really

It's like Why wouldn't I want my thought To be in the hood? It's like Crackheads It's like homeless heavy In one area where nobody walks down And then there's another area

Where Hollywood Boulevard Highland Avenue Which is where El Capitan The Adobe Theater All those things are That's the primary

I need the white man And envy to explain Why he would My man said the hood Didn't straight with The Craig kids A homelessness Is crazy?

Are you crazy? The area with y'all not mess with me. That is wild. Thank you. That's amazing. Thank you so much. Every hood?

You see that? You see that? Crack ends and homelessness. That is crazy, honey. You never seen a cracket of cocaine in Baltimore? Yes, but he's talking about they're not in his crack kids everywhere. From a cracket?

What? Don't try to, don't try to switch it on us because you tried to make, I want my thorn hood. As you said, you that's, don't try to put it on us. Anyway, when we come back,

we got front page news. We'll be joining us. I'm not messing with them. It's the breakfast, good morning. Morning. Morning everybody is DJ NVV. Just hilarious.

Sholamaine Nagar. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now, NCAA tournament last night, South Carolina, BTSU, 78 to 52. Texas beat Michigan 77 to 41. I don't like how you just fed by the fact that South Carolina beat TSU and the elite eight to go to their sixth straight final four.

Do you understand what Don Staley has done for the University of South Carolina? Do you understand the dynasty that she's built? Now mind you, we got Yukon on Friday, but I ain't afraid of Yukon. It sounds like you are. Yukon ain't no joke. Yukon is no joke, but we ain't no joke either. Man, I remember them coaches,

Yukon came to my show, and they told me to tell Shal Lemaine, stop hating on them for they pop up here. It was two women coaches. They was the coaches of the girls team. They wasn't playing with him. Yeah, they wasn't playing. Youcon looked really good.

The men team pulled off something crazy the other day, but they gave me some merch, told me where they were. He was like, tell Charlemagne, stop playing with us. I was like, all right. And I forgot to tell you, so. They got the show approved. All day.

Okay, Gamecox all day over here. All right. What's up, Mimi? Good morning, Mee. How you doing this morning? Peace, Mimi. Good morning. Good morning.

So we start this hour in Washington, D.C., where a housing case is getting national attention highlighting, what some say is a major loophole in squatters' tenants' rights. So it started with a 32-day Airbnb booking, a D. a D.C. homeowner, she rented her property to a woman who she said needed a place to stay after a fire. But when the stay ended, the woman refused to leave. And because she had been there more than 30 days, she was able to claim tenant rights. And although there was no traditional lease. So what followed was a months-long battle, a legal battle. The homeowner says she was locked out of her own home for nearly a year

while paying the mortgage, the legal fees, the bills, all while someone else was living in her home. The homeowner says that she changed the locks. She moved her belongings in and even put utilities in her name. So the squatter did all that. And after nearly a year in court, a judge finally ruled that the woman is not a legal tenant and ordered her to be removed from the home. But this week, the story is taking a very different turn. So the woman who is removed is now suing the homeowner for $500,000. She claims a list of her luxury.

items, including her handbags, her Gucci handbags, her jewelry, her clothing, electronics, her cash, all of her personal belongings went missing when she was put out the home. Let's listen to the homeowner. I did look at that list, and I did not see any of those things in that property. She looked like she picked through it and took what she wanted to take. And when we came back the next day, we ended up cleaning up the rest of it, and she never came back. Why was this legal to begin with?

Like, nothing about this sounds right. A lot of squatters rights, it doesn't sound right to me at all. I mean, you know if a squatter stays in your house for a long period of time, they can almost get ownership of your property. Yeah. Like, squatters' rights. No, squatters' rights is ridiculous and it's crazy. It gives more right to the people that actually squat in the property than the people that actually own the property. How did that even start?

It makes no sense at all. I don't know. Yeah. Well, investigators say this case is getting attention because court records show the woman and she, though, she has a pattern of renting properties staying long enough to claim residency, kind of like you were staying in V. And then staying for months without paying. while the cases moved through the courts. And she says that she was the one, though, who was being harassed, especially after homeowners, they turned off the utilities.

Let's listen to the squatter. So it's not like the harassment has not been for months. So when you're saying harassment and you're saying, why haven't I left prior? It seems as if this is an issue that has been going on for months, which it has not. This has been like a, now it's been a month. So the harassment didn't start until mid-November. So the harassment, the sign, the cutting the power off, that was November. Well, the power was put off in October first, but then they turned the power back on, but then they turned it back off in November.

It's not your house. How are you going to complain about my power? That's so audacious. That's crazy. That is so different. Why not just use your energy to save some money and buy your own place? And I would want for you to buy your own place and then rent it out to somebody and have them squat so you can know how it feels. But you know, that's what squatters do.

A lot of squatters, that's what they do for a living. They find these properties. They stay there. They know they could probably stay there for two, three years. they kick them out, then they find a new residence. And they do it for two, three years. They still have a job. They got a car.

They have nice things, but they know how to F the system, which is crazy. Being a career squad is crazy. Yeah, yeah. A serial squatter. And that's illegal everywhere in America? Like, you can do that in everywhere. Different state has different laws. Okay.

Different state, yes, exactly. Different state have different laws. But clearly in Washington, D.C., this lady was able to stay there for almost a year, I want to say. And so this case is now highlighting, you know, what many property owners say is that, major loophole in the law where if someone stays in your home for more than 30 days, they can claim tenant rights, they can take it for months, even close to a year before you

can even remove them. And so cases like this, several states, they are changing their laws to make it easier for property owners to remove squatters. But the woman at the center of this case is expected back in court next week. So we will follow up. And a lot of people, what they do is they look for older residents. So let's say your mom and dad pass away and you live in another state. So they know that your mom and dad's no longer there. So they move into your house now when you finally get finished grieving and figure out what you want to do, you come to that house. They're like, hey, yo,

what's up? Can't kick him out. It's crazy. That's their house now, pretty much. That's my house. It's wild. Yeah, it's very, very wild, Jess. And really quickly, before we go, I want to give another warning for those who have student loans because there's a lot of changes

being made that we don't know about. And so really quickly, the saved repayment plan is being shut down. It was blocked by a court, and that means about 7.5 million people who signed up for that plan will now have to choose a new repayment plan. So borrowers you have until 90 days, starting July 1st, to pick a new plan what you could pay every month. It will range from about 1% to 15% of your income, depending on the plan you choose. But here's the important part that they're not saying out loud. If you don't choose a plan,

the government can automatically place you into a plan, and that could come with higher monthly payment. So you want to pay attention to that. You want to go to student a.gov or call your loan servicer and make sure that you know what plan you're in and what your new payment plan will be before you are automatically moved by July 1st.

There you have it. And that is your front page news. I'm Mimi Brown. Follow me at Mimi Brown TV. And for more stories, follow the Black Information Network. Thank you, Mimi. Thank you. All right. Now, when we come back, we have wrestler Cody Rhodes joining us this morning. We're going to talk to him next.

move. It's the breakfast club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ NVV. Just hilarious. Charlemagne de Guy. We are the breakfast club. Lorna Roses here as well. We got a special guest in the building. Yes, we do. Cody Rose. Welcome, sir. Thank you. I clapped for myself. You clap for yourself. It's all good. Thank you guys for having me. How are you feeling? I'm good. From WWE. Yeah, no. I brought the WWE title. I see. The big one. So I like to start from the beginning. So what got you into wrestling? And I know you're going to say your dad, but besides your dad, what got you interested in where you said, I can do this and I want to do this. Well, I mean, there's obviously the osmosis in terms of, like you said,

the familial connection to it, but really what got me into it because he was, my dad was much older. I didn't see him wrestle in his prime, was going to those shows, the WCW shows when I was a kid. And this is, these are markets like Savannah, Georgia and, you know, Macon and Chattanooga, and those crowds. There's a wrestling named Brad Armstrong. He used to just do a move, an arm drag, basic wrestling move. But I remember watching. it and hearing the reaction and there was just this like deafening pop for this physical,

simple, basic stuff. And that's where I fell in love with it. It was more almost hearing it than seeing it just because of the interaction, that's the cool thing about pro wrestling is we're very reliant on our audience and it's fun to be in New York because the audience in New York can be tricky.

So yeah, no, that was the moment. That arm drag is actually the one where I thought, I can do this. Yeah. When did you know you want to be a professional wrestler. I mean, so this is funny. My dad he played like baseball. He was one of those classic 60-70s where they played

every sport somehow were great at all of them, you know, all that. But none of them in my family actually did real folk style, Greco, freestyle, what you would see in the Olympics, that type of wrestling. So I plugged into that really early in my career because

this is going to sound silly now, but I didn't want, if anyone ever thought that my dad was, you know, like this phony TV wrestler. I always wanted to have this little edge like, well, you know, I got this. And that was the thing I loved the most. But I knew that I wanted to go into pro wrestling more, the storytelling at a very, very young age. My fear when I was 17, 18, I'm getting ready to pop out and go, go for it, was I wasn't big enough. Right?

You watch this stuff. I was going to say that. I was going to say most wrestlers when you see them, they're gigantic. Yeah. It looks like they're roided up. Very big, huge necks poise, very strong. Big necks. But I didn't see that from you, boss.

Yeah, no, I, uh, today I'm lucky. It's a light, heavyweight game. Uh, I'm, I'm one of them just pretty two degrees. Sometimes one of the bigger guys now, which is not the case with my WrestleMania opponent, which is Randy Orden, which is one of the more old school types. Yeah, 6,6, 280, legitimate pounds, giant neck, uh, giant, like, um, yeah, no, but that was my fear. and it wasn't until I saw, you know, macho man, Randy Savage is a great example of somebody who wasn't big,

but he made himself big. It's the out, you know, the outfits, the pageantry, but also how he moved in the ring. He gave himself this larger than life approach. And again, this is storytelling. It can be whatever we want. So after I got over that fear, I was able to just jump right in.

How difficult was it to make it professional? What were the steps to actually get into professional wrestling, and opposed to those markets because we hear all the time that it was like it's just a lucky star one day somebody put you on and the crowd of scream your name how difficult was it for you to get it to get to that well so for me getting in is not difficult at all is the easiest thing ever and I have the absolute respect and love for guys were out on the independent scene hustling and hustling and hustling because for me it was the last name and it was out of respect for my dad we'll give them will give him a job.

The issue then becomes that's easy getting in the door. But if you're filling those boots or people think you're filling those boots or you're in that shadow of my brother too. This is two generations now who have made a big impact in WWE. That's where it became very, very difficult. So it's a tradeoff. You get in the door, but also you're living up to an incredibly well-reared professional wrestler whose contributions still are happening in the industry that's where it became very hard and

i would say i'm a fairly slow learner i didn't pop off in a way where i could feel like hey they're into this they're these are my people like ah yeah like i didn't get that until mid 30s and i now it's the elusive connection that johnsina always taught us about and preached to me because I drove John around for a few years. It just came a little later for me, but it's still there. So hanging on. How did you keep yourself together mentally, like, you know, motivating yourself when things didn't pop off right away?

Because you have, like, the shadow of, like, your family and you're, you know, expecting all this stuff. I wish I could say I handled things really maturely and diplomatically. But if I started at WWU when I was 20 years old. So I was a baby when I started there. And up until 30, they treated me. like I was a baby still even though I'd grown and I'd wrestled

Triple H and I'd been in the ring with The Undertaker. I'd taken this. I drove John around. I drove Randy around. I'd learned but I was still treated a little bit as a kid so I walked. I walked and did what we would say is like reverse order. I went and did independent wrestling. I went to New Japan pro wrestling. Me and my buddy

started our own alternative wrestling promotion that actually made it to linear cable and then it was time to come home. And then coming home. and then coming home, I got treated very differently. So I don't know if that's the advice I would give because I think most of the times I say, hey, you stand in there, you weather the storm.

But this was a case where I just took my ball somewhere else but was able to really sharpen my skills and see what's out there and bring it back. You've got to find yourself. So I can't really hate on them for bad booking or bad. There was that, sure, but I hadn't found who I was. And I think when I came back, I at least had an idea.

I think this is me. Yeah. I think you'll like this, you know? You know, I was going to ask, you know, I was reading an article that said, WWE's roster is older than ever, right? This is the oldest you've seen, right? Seasoned. They say season, yeah, they said most of them are over 35 and in the 40s.

But usually it's a lot younger. Why do you think that is? Well, it goes in phases. So in like the golden 80s, it was, we used to joke, wrestler prime for the man was 35 to 42. That's in the golden 80s. And that's because they needed all that experience psychologically. They worked. They did this town to town. The live crowds are everything. How do you work with a live crowd? How do you involve them with us? We're not doing this just for each other and we're not doing this just for the camera. How are they involved? That now has cycled back because a few years ago they brought in. It was what I'd say is like all freshmen on a varsity team. There's this famous picture of me and CM Punk and Matt Cardona and we're all babies and we had won the big titles. But we didn't have a clue.

really at that point we didn't have that experience so now i think you're getting back into where you've got i know exactly who we're talking about here roman me punk randy the main events of russomania right i just like to say it's a very experienced crew and i i i do feel i'm in my prime i i really do it could be over tomorrow because i've been doing this and falling down since i was 20 but uh i feel like i'm there and i think wd b sean michael's particular shout out to Sean, what they're doing in NXT is making it so that when it's time you know, if I take a bad bump

tonight and all of a sudden I do feel it. I feel my age and that older seeps in. I can tell you you can step in. He already visited here. Trick Williams. Oh, yeah. That's a baby. That's a baby, right? Trick Williams. Oba. Kit Wilson's out there doing an

incredible job. I'm not giving nothing up for, but I know they're, I know they're there. And they're such great like young guys that we have on the show right now and Sean got them all ready to NXT, Ethan Page, Ricky Saints, they're all going to

make their way up here. It'll cycle back to where it's too young. So let it be a little older. Let it be a little old. Your wife was a wrestler too. Yeah. So how was that when y'all get in arguments? No, but my wife is just my wife, she trained at NXT which was the performance

where we were developing wrestlers and then at the time they were down a ring announcer and they, hey, can you? It's one of those. Like, can you do this? I could. And she came up and she was the ring announcer. And that's where we met. And then she went over to Japan.

I remember poor girl. She wrestled three matches with her collarbone. Totally broken. I never needed to see my wife wrestle or know that she's a wrestler to know. She's just a very tough woman. She's from Detroit. She's a very, her, just the way she looks at people when she's in a bad mood. Brandy's got a different spirit.

I have. You know how people are confrontational and non-confrontational? I'm a non-confrontational person. My wife's a confrontational person. So you run. So I'm, so I'm there to, I'm on the side. I'm adjacent. Let me say, she's a black woman, so I know she'd be like, I'm going to get the hell up out of here. I already know. She's, uh, the thing she's done in her, her career and in her life where she said, basically we're up, we're leaving. Or if I was down, nope, we're not having that just really I tell people all the time like it's all hers I don't want to get like super emotional about it but like it's so every everything we have is oh damn got me it's her is is is hers because she she put a lot over here so I could go and make these moves that I made so yeah

yeah go ahead I think we're about the street fighter yeah yeah talk about that how did how did that even come about you were in the trailer everybody was excited about it can I tell you crazy story about getting the role of course. I didn't think so Roman Rains has been announced as a Kuma and I thought oh man dang man I'm

that's awesome good for him but also like hey man I was really happy for him right I didn't think they'd be interested in anybody else from the wrestling space but I got a call saying would you come to legendary and meet the producer and talk with a producer I thought it was

just a general meeting really sincerely thought it was a general meeting And I thought, best case scenario, they're like, could you consult? Because I played this game and I loved this game. And I had a buddy who played competitively in Japan. I'm like, man, I know enough. That's right. Maybe they'll have me as a consultant.

If not, great meeting, happy to go. I get there. And the director's on Zoom. He's in Australia. Producers across from me. I'm just thinking, okay, cool, we're going to talk street fighter, talk 1994, you know? And then they said, give us a second. The head of the studio wants to come down here.

Okay, that's cool. I like meeting people. This is no pressure meeting for me. And she comes in and just like all the aura and swagger you could imagine. And she kind of, the whole room is there and she just hits it. She's like, hey, you know, I know your schedule is what it is, but we really like you for the role of guile. And we think you'd be incredible. The dates are going to be what the dates are.

These guys are going to give you the information. But I'm just happy to meet you. This is going to be awesome. She leaves. Damn. Wow. So I'm like. what are we doing here like is this real and I'm you know I'm also like lying through my teeth a little

bit because the guys ask me he's like you think WW will be okay with that yeah they're gonna be fine champ champ's gonna leave for him and they're gonna be great and thank gosh you know WW's president Nick con knew he knew the power he understands right and he knows he knows he understands so it wasn't in triple H understood it was it was an easy sell but after I left, there was a, it was like it was all set up. There's another wrestler in Hollywood. I'll just leave him nameless who called me as I'm leaving. And he goes, hey, how'd that meeting go?

He knew. He knew it was you about to go down. So I told him for the future, I go, you can tell me. Like, I'm not going to blow it. You can tell me. But it was so much fun. And that's that set, Katow Sakurai, the director, incredible story. He's telling so much fan service towards the game.

Noah, Kalina, and Koji, the three leads. You got your Ryu, your Ken, and your Chunli. They're the hard and soul of this thing. And then Orville Peck, who's doing Vega and, you know, Andrew Schultz, and just this, like, wild collection around them. It really, they gave us a lot of room to play and have fun and find out, you know, in my case, like, who's guile? Where does Guyle fit and all this?

Yeah, I'm very, very excited about it. Yeah. It's, uh, when I put the, when I put it on, the flat top, The wig, the flanks up, yeah. My costumes, you know, it's not much. It's the tank top. It's the fatigues. It's the boots.

The tattoo and when I put that on, I felt, if it's a good performance, because I felt like I was him. Canadian women are looking for more.

Experts are suggesting that UCLA is the number one challenger to Yukon and that right after that would be Texas.

From IHart Podcasts and Best Case Studios, this is Worshack, murder at City Hall. How could this have happened in City Hall? Somebody tell me that. July 2003, Councilman James E. Davis arrives at New York City Hall with a guest.

Both men are carrying concealed weapons. And in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead. Everybody in the chambers ducts. A shocking public murder. I scream, get down, get down. Those are shots. Those are shots, get down. A charismatic politician.

You know, he just bent the rules all the time. I still have a weapon, and I could shoot you. And an outsider with a secret. He alleged he was a victim of flat down.

I'm Lori Siegel, a longtime tech journalist. And consider my new podcast, mostly human, your bridge to the future. Anyone can now be an entrepreneur, anyone can build. build an app and it's very empowering. Each week, I'll speak to the people building that future and we're going to break down what all of this innovation actually means for you. What I come to realize is that when people think that they're dating these AI companion, they're actually dating the companies that create this.

We're experiencing one of the greatest tech accelerations in human history. And let's be honest, that can be messy. There's no playbook for what to do when an AI model hallucinates a story. about you. But it's my belief that we should all benefit from this moment. Mostly Human will show you how. My goal is to give you the playbook, so you can benefit.

The reason I say agency is because if we can give power back to people, then I think that's probably the best thing we can do for your mental health. Listen to Mostly Human on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your favorite shows. I didn't even like seeing the double with it.

I'm like, nah, just me. Yeah. I'm the only one with do here, you know, yeah. It's cool, though. The movie's going to be great. And then I think in probably the next few weeks, there's probably some more about the movie coming out. So, congratulations. Thank you. Thank you.

Now, WrestleMania 42 is coming up April 18. Yeah. All right. So what should the people expect? Oh, my gosh. It's the Elysian Stadium. Have you been to Allegiance Stadium? No, I haven't. I haven't been to Vegas. So many times, haven't been there. Go. They called the Death Star. Really? Why? Yeah. Because it's just a giant black out in the middle of the desert. I guess it gives, like, the

the doom and gloom of the Death Star from Star Wars. But really cool, great place to watch anything. But this year, if you went to last year, it was John Cena versus me, Las Vegas. You had a trip to threat with Seth, Roman and punk. This year, you've got the main event, which is first time punk, C.M. Punk versus Roman Rains. And the main event on the other night, myself versus Randy Orden, which is 20, almost 20 years of real equity between each other. And I think wrestling is always best when it's real.

I know that sounds silly, but that's a hard one. It's very real for me because this is the guy who brought me into the fold to be part of his faction. This is a guy who I drove from town to town who I watched him in a WrestleMania main event against Triple H in 2009. He was genuinely my mentor in the industry. So to stand across the ring from each other in the biggest match that we do of the year knowing like, hey, I need you to see me. Like I'm not a kid anymore. It's back to that. That makes for great TV.

and that great matches and I think I look forward to that moment but WrestleMania in general you're gonna see because you mentioned the old the good thing about it you get to see the new two

you get to see the young too we're reloading it's very clear we're reloading and that's great it puts the fire on me and I like that but it's the biggest thing we do it's the best thing we do

if you're ever going to step in if you don't like wrestling if you kind of used to like it going to a WrestleMania can tell you if this is going to be for you and I think it's for everybody How do you keep your sanity, right?

You were talking about your family, your wife and your kids, but you need some family time as well. And wrestling fans sometimes are crazy. I remember the one story. I can't remember the wrestler. They chased him, followed them, and he had to pull over and just sign an autograph. Oh, yeah.

That wasn't that John Cena? So how do you deal with that with crazy fans when you're just trying to get some family time? I remember Triple H said, you know, there really isn't a work-life balance with this. And I think maybe the answer to that is and this probably won't sound the way I mean it's sound, but I bring them into the work, right?

My daughter's got two trips coming up. She's going to the beach, and then she's going to WrestleMania. The one she's most excited about, shockingly, is going to WrestleMania. She's four. But she was there when I picked her up in SoFi, the first stadium show I ever made a minted,

and now I said hi to her at Allegiant last year, and she's looking forward to what are we going to do this year? I'm going to be in the front row. What are we doing this year? I try to bring them around it, And with my children, I try to explain the importance of the fan. That also means every type of fan. So there's the diehard fans who you know you've touched and you're lucky as all can be to have.

There's also the collectors. And there's some who maybe they're the haters, the critics. They're all really, really important. And to me, it's always a yes. It's always, you know, I can't do it while I'm holding a baby. No, but it's always a yes. Now here's where there's a little bit of the balance. balance. I'm all about it. The fans are the most important thing we have. And I try to explain that to the children that they provide this. This house, they're part of that, right? My wife, though, is the other side of that. You know what I'm saying? And I think sometimes she just provides a look that helps us a little bit of a deflection. A little bit. And I'm like, all right, that's good. I got her. So yeah.

What have you learned about showing up for your wife, Brandi, right? While doing and sustaining all of that, I remember her talking about like postpartum depression at one point. And, you know, she's had a very successful career. Like she's first black woman in the ring announcer, WrestleMania 2015. First black woman executive in North America Wrestling Operations, right? And then she becomes a mom, and she's very open about how things change for her. How do you step out of your character

and just as a husband support her in those type of situations? I think what I've tried to do is everything is there's not a, I don't want there to be value weight on what I do. That's not equal to what she does. So this is the biggest season of my life, WrestleMania. Everything is, I have sleep, training, diet, everything. This is it. But in the same vein, she's doing a huge porch sale at her kid's store, which is in

Roswell called Pinkertons. They're the same. I need like, and I don't know if she believes me when I tell her that. So the only way I can do that is just show it. That there is no, like, there's no weight to this. there's no breadwinner in our house or anything like that because we did this together. So that's been the thing. I don't know if it's always always translates, but that's what I always tried to do to make it very clear that what you do is just as important as what I do.

And support those. But the big thing too, and we learn this from wrestling, is that's yours. Right? Like, cool. This is great. Like, let me, this is my thing. But when I came to WDB, a lot of people thought Brandy would come with. And the big part of this was let's do our own things.

Let's do our own things. Sometimes when you're a couple and you beat each other over the head with it, that's, you know, like, no. It's not good for the marriage. No, and it's also, you know, if you're a fan, like, I don't know how I'm a baby face in the first place. Bleach blonde hair, wear suits, the American flag on the side of my neck. I don't know why I haven't gone the other way. Why I'm not a vicious heel. But I can tell you that when you add in this beautiful woman to the, that,

it's less likely that the grown men coming to those shows want to cheer for you now. You know what I mean? Like, it's more like, ah, the, you know, so we've gone to put spotlights in our own places and separated that way, which has been really good. But it's daily. It's daily, you know, you got to be there. When you came back into the WWE, you said that she, a decision that she made was the only reason why you were even able to come back. Yeah.

Like, what was that? Like, what happened? I'm trying to think what I meant. Or if I meant something I shouldn't say. You said it's not a story that everyone's going to know, but I wouldn't even be able to be able to come back if she didn't make a very selfless decision that changed my life. Yeah, so I think what I, our departure from when we left the company we were with and helped create and that was AEW. it came down to her her deciding to

to not talk about that departure. Like, we're not going to talk about. We're moving on. Did bad stuff happen? Good stuff happened to. Right? I'm not going to talk about it. And one of the sad things about not talking about why we left in the departure, one of the difficult thing was narratives get created. So stories get told. Podcast happened. Fans literally, literally think they know what happened where no one's been even close. And what I would say is the selfless part, she lives with that.

She owns that. That she respects not just here, but the place we left enough to, I'm not going to talk about that. And that made it so that they're good. They're out of here. Got you. Scott for that, that was very, very helpful for us.

And again, good stuff happened there too, but that's what I mean by selfless because she lives with that. And one of the things about that is wrestling fans. I mentioned they created a narrative. They think they know. I had to remind her, I'm like, hey, it's not all the fans. And WrestleMania 40 was the prime example of that. I said, you're going to come out with me at WrestleMania 40.

And I was so happy because the fans reacted, like, big pop, big excitement. And I just needed her to, like, kind of nudge her, like, see, like, they're the real ones. They get it. You know what I'm saying? Like, they ain't mad at you. And that was very important that she felt. Because a lot of wrestlers take a step off. They go away or they do something or they screw up, make a mistake, whatever.

Then they come back and the fans, like, they always cradle you back in. They're really special. Well, WrestleMania 42 takes place Saturday, April 18th and Saturday, April 19th in Vegas. If you haven't got your tickets, get your tickets. You can stream it live. ESPN Unlimited Plan. The first hour of night one and night two will broadcast on ESPN 2 and ESPN. And we appreciate you for joining this, man.

Thank you guys for having me. That's right. Thank you. I wish Charlamagne was here so you could slap him with the bell just one good time. Just slap him in general. Just one good time. I don't know. I don't like them too much.

He's just smack them with the ring. He's the heel of the room. Yes. Oh, okay. You need that, though. Only three days a week. Not all five. Not all five.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's Cody Rhodes. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get to the latest with Lauren. Hey, let you'll talk, L.Cube. Yeah. I'm not dumbing myself down. I'm being myself.

That course is my stuff. I'm the homeguard that knows a little bit about everything and everything. The little brown girls look at you and go, I want to be like you. Take me through that, take me through that. Where she's gone? The latest with Narno knows. Take me through that. On the breakfast club.

L.L. Cubey. Talk to me. All right, guys. So we talked about T-Baz yesterday. I'm sorry, we talked about chili yesterday from TLC. In the FAPT. T-Bahs like, don't bring me into this. Don't bring me into this. So, naturally, that's our.

already happening and we're about to discuss that and what I think is happening because there's a separation happening and I can't confirm this but we're going to have a conversation. So separation of the group let me talk. So first we talked about Chile. Background of that was that Chile was called out about some donations that she made to the FEC

which people are linking to Donald Trump. Now she cleared it up and she says that she is not MAGA. She says that the donations that she made at the time were to different organizations supporting human trafficking and things for veterans because of her father. She did not know that there was any affiliation to Donald Trump. Now, all hip hop.com released an exclusive audio yesterday from an interview from 2016. I have not been able to find this interview in full. I've reached out to Chili's team several

times, both yesterday and this morning, as well as T-Baz's team with no response. But this interview, they're saying it's from 2016, and this is T-Baz mentioning one of her group members and who they voted for. Let's take a listen. You guys are about to nominate the biggest jackass in the history of politics. Straight up. My group member voted for him. Well, here's my thing is, I've been telling you guys that when you say Obama got two, that don't mean nothing anymore. Yeah.

So that is all that is released from the clip and that is beginning to circulate. Now, there was a story after this happened, there was a story that came out this morning on TMZ's website that went from sources close to T-Baz. And they are basically making it clear that T-Bos has nothing to do with the news that we are seeing right now. So it says source is close to T-Biz. Tell TMZ that the singer has always that her views be known, whether it be sexual health,

HIV, LGBT community, or Black Lives Matter. T-Bos has been an advocate for the unheard voice. And then they point to an interview from 2017 that T-Bos and Chile did with Channel 4 UK News where she talked about not really caring for President Trump and saying that God is her president. But the story is basically wanting us to separate T-Bos from everything that is happening right now in the news.

Now, you asked me, is this separating the group? I've been watching them on the press run for their tour and they're fine. But that's why I'm confused why this story would come out because we would naturally know to separate T-Bos. People have been having a conversation about Chile, not T-Bos.

So I don't know where all of this is coming from from and again. I've tried to clarify and haven't heard back on anything there. Ornda try to break TLC up this morning, man. Meanwhile, in vogue TLC and Salt and Pemple going on tour. I did not try to, I try to clarify. It's going to be a great tour. Now, in other news, so yesterday,

you guys know that Arsenio Hall has his book coming out. It's out the day! What are you talking about? Arsenio Hall's memoir. Arsenio is out the day via Black Privilege Publishing, Simon and Schuster, and I know I could be biased, but it's one of the best entertainment memoirs I ever read in my mother effing life. Wow.

I mean that wholeheartedly. Yes. They said no books up here, huh? They should have been up here. I ain't got no book. Well, okay, so yesterday, page 6 did a excerpt from his book and a few other outlets did it. And I thought that this story was like, it just paints a good picture of the timing that he was in when his show was on air. So the story is about Arsenio Hall having to flip out and break a studio gate after he was accused of stealing and was told that his show needed to be less black.

So in his memoir that comes out today, Arsenio Hall talks about how somebody stole a keyboard off of the set, like one of the instruments that was on the set, right? Now, this was the Arsenio Hall show, this was back in 1992. to. Now, when that happened, they, of course, let security know that everybody, like, you know, they went through the process, let security know, father report, something was stolen. So, Arsenio Hall is then leaving the studio later that

night with his assistant, and a security guard stops him. And the security guard is like, we need to search your car. And Arsenio Hall was pissed because he's like, search my car for what? Somebody stole equipment from my show, and you're telling me that you need to search my car. Why would I steal my own stuff? So then he gets

upset and he uh you know he's calling out different names he's like i know johnny carson has never been accused of stealing and like just different names uh that were on uh the lot and on television at that time he asked the officer did you search ted to dancin's car when he left um and just different stars uh that were out and on the set at that time um and then uh they go into kind of like a a back and forth of some of some sorts and arsonio hall talks about the fact that during that time he would face things like that both very direct also micro and he says that during the time that his show was taken off air first he was told that the show had to be less need to be less black once TV

ratings start being a thing and then he had actually in this episode they talk about how he had given a resignation letter um god damn Lauren stop y'all y'all the book is out today they're releasing the excerpts it's here memoir you went left right up down I was still stuck on the keyboard and then you said the show got canceled and that's not the totality of the story confused. But y'all have no idea the things that Arsenio Hall

had to go through to put black culture at the forefront. I understand. And I'm, you know, listen, I always say that I have four

entertainment idols, right? Arsenio Hall, Jayzee, Clarence Avon, and Pedy Green. What I'm telling you, this is one of the, Wendy Williams in her?

No, I love Wendy, though. This is one of the best entertainment memoirs I've ever read in my life, okay? And now, you know, it is a privilege to be published

in Arceenae The only reason why I was reading the Epsert and the little block that page six had was because I was trying to paint the picture of that. Like, you know, if the episode's out there, I thought, you know, you'd go into the things. Somebody stole his stuff. Yeah. But you're going to see Arsenae all over the place. I mean, he's going to be everywhere over the next couple of weeks. I believe he's doing CBS mornings, this morning.

We were taking a look out for that. Yeah, I think it's good morning. I think it's good morning in America he's doing this morning. Oh, okay. It was one of the morning shows that I saw. Well, in other news, in case you guys care, Kanye West. Have you guys listened to the album yet? No.

I have not. I'm going to stop talking nobody. Are you going to listen? They probably are. I'm a time. I'm not in the world. Listen to my priority. Okay.

I love it. Love it. Yesterday he hit number one on some Apple streaming charts, but he's headed back to the UK for the first time over a decade. They announced that he was going to be the headliner for a few days on the Wireless Fest. Congrats, so kids were excited about that as well, too. And I know that we were having a conversation about whether or not there's been like excitement. Do you guys feel any excitement?

been around Kanye yet? Yes, like, I was on stage. Every show this beginning, like, I just can't wait to end this show so I can go back and finish listening to the bully. I'm giving up on the Kanye conversation. I'm trying, but y'all ain't.

Y'all ain't even into it. Y'all don't care. I just told you I was happy, girl. Well, that wraps the latest. And a real quick update, I'll leave that for the next hour. So the next hour, the latest, we'll give you guys an update

about the Rihanna Home Shooter, Ivana Lizette Ortiz, because she has some things that she's losing behind that. of Rihanna's home. Of course. She should be her freedom. I mean, well, no, she's still locked up.

They didn't give her bond, but there are some other things now that have been taken away from her as they should be. We're going to talk about it. All right. Well, don't care today, Shalerman. Who you and that don't get to four after the hour. I keep telling y'all, stop worrying about where people putting their penis. We need Jade and Ivy to come to the front of the congregation. We like to have a word with them, okay?

All right. We'll get to that next is the breakfast club. Good morning. Use that donkey thing that he is a bunch of donkeys around here. It's time for don't give you. It's time to don't give you. the day. I got the donkey of the day

for these times. They made me the donkey up the day by the things that I said. Damn, Charlemagne. Some donkey todays just saw themselves. It was you. What accountability are you taking? I ought to make donkey today

on the breakfast club. That being said, I want to start off with this donkey right here. Yes, it's donkey today for Tuesday, March 31st, goes the former Chicago Bulls Guard, Jaden Ivy. Jaden is a young man.

Okay, 24 years old. He played college basketball for Purdue, and he was drafted as the fifth overall pick by the Detroit Pistons in 22. He signed a four-year, $32 million deal with the Pistons. He was traded to the Chicago Bulls this year and was set to make $10 million, okay? I don't know if he's still getting paid, but the young man was waived by the Chicago Bulls yesterday for conduct detrimental to the team. What did young Jaden do? Well, let's go to his IG live for the report, please. The world can proclaim LGBTQ.

They proclaim Pride Month and the NBA. They proclaim it. They show it to the world. They say, come, come join us for pride, for Pride month to celebrate unrighteousness. They proclaim it. They proclaim it on the billboards. They proclaim it in the streets. Unrighteousness.

So how is it that one can't speak righteousness? How is it one that, how are they to say that, man, This man is crazy. So play that again. One more time, please. The world can proclaim LGBTQ. They proclaim Pride Month and the NBA. They proclaim it.

They show it to the world. They say, come join us for pride, for Pride month to celebrate unrighteousness. They proclaim it. They proclaim it on the billboards. They proclaim it in the streets. Unrighteousness. So how is it? that one can't speak righteousness?

How is it one that, how are they to say that, man, this man is crazy? So he said that the LGBTQ pride muff is unrighteous. So the Bulls waved Jay Nivey after what they call anti-LGBQ comments. Listen to me, kids.

If you don't listen to anything that comes out of your uncle, Shaula's mouth, ever again, listen to this. Keep your attention focused entirely on what is truly your own and be clear that what belongs to others is their business and none of yours. I repeat, keep your attention focused entirely on what is truly your own concern and be clear that what belongs to others is their business and none of yours.

Those are wise words from the Stoic philosopher Epictetus. Okay, minding other people's business could cost you yours. It is amazing to me that religious folks will claim they are following scripture when they make moral evaluations about people. like Jaden Ivy did, but they never seem to follow the scripture. Matthew 7-1, do not judge or you two will be judged. And this morning, I am judging how a young 24-year-old man could blow his money being concerned about who another man is blowing.

Okay? When I tell you, I could care less what another man is doing with their penis, if a man wants to make the back of his throat a party for another man, if I'm not the man being invited to come, I could care less, okay? It makes no sense to me how much people care about other people's sexual. If a man takes his sandwich with a pickle, let him have his pickle. Okay? What he sucks don't make you ejaculate.

Okay. If a man is a little light in the loafers, why do you care? All right? Do you understand what it means to sit around and worry about who's gay? Okay, you're literally sitting around thinking about a man having sex with another man. So much so that you got to go live and tell the world about your thoughts. Okay? I think what people like Jaden Ivy really want to say is I might be curious.

Okay, that's why I can't stop thinking about men having sex with other men. And when I get on IG live and condemn your behavior, it's because I too would like to play hopscotch on the game cock. But I'm not free to be who I want to be. Now, Jaden Ivy decided to go on IG after he was waved by the Bulls. The question why he was waved. Let's listen. What did I do to the players?

I did nothing but practice with them, play with them. pass the ball to them, good teammate to them, said, good job, good shot. I said, I said, good job, good job, good pass. Way to play, bro, right? I said these things to my teammates. It was never detrimental to them. So why is it that the NBA and the Chicago Bulls say that I'm detrimental to the team? How?

Because I believe in the truth, because I know Jesus is the way the truth in the life. How is my conduct detrimental to the team? Because of what I believe. Because of what the truth is. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the light. But, Jaden, you have no idea how the real world works. Okay, what did you do to the team? What did you do to the players?

Did it ever dawn on you? Some of the players might be a gentleman's gentleman? Huh? Did you ever stop to think that people on the team, they might be brown pipe engineers? You don't even know who you offended. Okay, the owners, the sponsors, the coaches, players, you don't know who's gay. You don't know who has gay people in their family.

There might be people on the team who got gay kids, but you didn't care about any of that when you made your statement. Listen, I know when we talk about the Bible in Matthew 7-1, do not judge or you two will be judged. That doesn't mean, you know, never make moral evaluations. Of course, we are going to see a moral thing and call them out. But there's a difference between being judgmental, condemnation. in condemning, okay, being hypocritical and judging righteously using discernment. Okay, Jaden, who the hell are you to tell someone that what they are doing is unrighteous? Okay, all right, my brother, I'm not knocking your religion.

All right, I'm not knocking you. I'm not knocking what you believe. But unless you are perfect, okay, I'm talking the Messiah, the Savior, the Lord, Jesus Christ himself, you are not perfect to be making these kind of moral evaluations about people. Now I read in this article on ESPN, it says Jaden is dealing with depression. And this is why I encourage so many of us to invest in our mental wealth. Okay, you have to do the work on yourself. Take your ass to therapy and figure out what's going on in your head and your heart

because what you are doing, Jaden. What you did is project a lot of hurt on the other people. You are bleeding on people who didn't cut you. And what do I always say? Deal with your trauma or your trauma will deal with you. If you watch this video of this brother Jaden, you can clearly. see him speaking through the filter of his wound. So I hope

he gets the help he needs because right now Jaden, you need something that you weren't willing to give to the LGBTQ community and that's something is called Grace. Please give Jaden Ivy the biggest he-ha. You better stop minding other people's business.

That's crazy. So what if that's just the way he feel? Like, why he got to be depressed? Why he got to be curious about being... He's got depressed before that. No, but I'm saying in the the donkey of the day, Shalda, say, you know, he might have,

he might be curious, you might. Because why do you care so much about what somebody's doing with their penis? Yeah, but I'm saying, some people just, why are you sitting around thinking about who's gay?

Exactly. Like, why are you sitting around thinking about why is this man sleeping with this man? Like, you don't think that's, like, that's actually strange. You just at home, like, I bet you he's gay. I bet you he sleeps with other men.

Let me go live and tell the world that this is so wrong that he's sleeping with another man. Why do you care so much? definitely shouldn't have went live with it for sure definitely shouldn't have I agree with a lot of you shouldn't even think that I mean if you do think that and you do decide to go live you have to deal with the consequences of those actions

because guess what as I said he don't know who on that team is gay he don't know the owners of that team might be gay they might have gay kids and you're going to go live and just insult the whole community and expect it not to be any consequences for those actions that's just that's just ridiculous all right well thank you for donkey today. Now when we come back, the newest cast member of Real Housewives of Atlanta, Pinky Cole, owner and founder of

when it comes to your family life. I must have been drunk. I don't know. No, I'm joking. You know, I'm a cat. Okay, I've been a television producer. I have been a restaurant tour. I've been a pageant girl. And doing reality TV was just something else to knock off the list.

And when the opportunity presented, I was going to say, I might as well do it. And I'm happy that I did. It was actually a very interesting experience. Really? Yeah, very interesting. Talk about them approaching you for the show. Because I know you worked in casting too at one point, right?

I did. I used to be a producer for the Mori show. And a whole bunch of TV shows. So the timing couldn't have been better. You know what I'm saying? Like this was right after we saw it. Like I went through the restructure in my company, had $20 million in debt,

bought my business back 43 days later. later. And then right when I bought my business back, it was like the conversation was the timing couldn't have been no better. And I'm like, you know what? I'm going to try this. I'm going to do this. And, you know, doing it really exposed a lot of things in a great way. I got to meet some new friends. And so many people like, Piki, now, why would you do that show? And I'm like, I'm a mastermind. That's why. Yeah. Were you nervous at first? Like, I don't know if I'm trying to jump out there. I don't get nervous. Yeah, I got you.

You don't mind because you're very a private person when it comes to your personal life, right? personal life yes yes yourself your open book but you know in housewives they get into personal lives but did that bother you at all no to be honest at that point the whole world knew what happened I literally went publicly and say hey I lost my company I don't own my company anymore so like you're not just going to laugh at my story I might as well capitalize off of it my damn self you know what I'm saying um so when everything happened with my business I said I might as well, like, because I could be a testimony to entrepreneurs who are going through difficult times because what happens in entrepreneurship is everybody got this pride.

They only showed a highlight reel, like all the things that are really good. But like, I really went through some really heavy times, some really dark times. I almost lost my mind. And I did that in private. So because I did that in private, when it was time to go public about it, I'm like, somebody else, life can be saved if they hear my testimony and what I went through. You know what I'm saying? Like, there were nights where I'm like, it's just me and my pillow and God.

And I'm like, I don't want to do this no more. You know what I'm saying? Like, this is too much for me. Like, it might be better if I'm not here. And a lot of people don't talk about stuff like that. So if I could be the vessel, right, to show somebody else that like... Celebrate your pride with the station that's as bold, vibrant, and diverse as you are. I heart pride, Canada.

It must have been. Our new podcast series, The Secret World of Roll Doll, is a wild journey. through the hidden chapters of his extraordinary, controversial life.

His job was literally to seduce the wives of powerful Americans. What? And he was really good at it. You probably won't believe it either. Okay, I don't think that's true. I'm telling you, the guy was a spy. Did you know Dahl got cozy with the Roosevelt's? Played poker with Harry Truman and had a long affair with a congresswoman.

And then he took his talents to Hollywood, where he worked alongside Walt Disney and Alfred Hitchcock, before writing a hit James Bond film. How did this secret agent, wind up as the most successful children's author ever, and what darkness from his covert past seeped into the stories we read as kids. The true story is stranger than anything he ever wrote.

What do you think UCLA is going to do? Break down that for me, my friend.

Obviously, you kind of see. Well, I'm the favorite in this tournament. But I'll be honest, I think people are kind of sleeping on Texas. Experts are suggesting that UCLA is the number one challenger to Yukon and that right after that would be Texas. S&C is so deep and so thick and just about everything. It really is annoying. So it's UCLA, Texas, South Carolina, LSU, only ones that could possibly upset Yukon.

What I come to realize is that when people think that they're dating these AI companion, they're actually dating the companies that create this. We're experiencing one of the greatest tech accelerations in human history. And let's be honest, that can be messy.

There's no playbook for what to do when an AI model hallucinates a story about you. But it's my belief that we should all be. benefit from this moment. Mostly Human will show you how. My goal is to give you the playbook, so you can benefit. The reason I say agency is because if we can give power back to people,

and Best Case Studios. This is Rorschach, murder at City Hall. How could this have happened in City Hall? Somebody tell me that. July 2003, Councilman James E. Davis arrives at New York City Hall with a guest. Both men

are carrying concealed weapons. And in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead. Everybody in the chamber docked. A shocking public murder. I scream, get down, get down. Those are shots. Those are shots. Get down. A charismatic.

politician. You know, he just bent the rules all the time, man. I still have a weapon, and I could shoot you. And an outsider with a secret. He alleged he was a victim of blackdown. That may or may not have been political. That may have been about sex.

Listen to Roershack. Murder at City Hall on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You can keep going. You don't give up. People will talk. People will have an opinion. But like the purpose is bigger than a circumstance

than somebody else's life is going to be saved because of what I went through. What got you off that ledge? Having the right people around you. You know how people say you need the right team? It is so critical. It is like an iPhone that needs a battery. Okay?

Like I need to have people around me that's going to charge me up when I feel depleted. You understand what I'm saying? Like when they say that 10% when you ain't got nothing left in you, you need somebody that's going to take you back up again. And that's relationships.

partnerships, it's friendships, it's having a good manager. We all got management, right? It's having a good manager. If you're around somebody all day, every day, and they're like, that's not going to work. Don't do that. I don't believe in a dream. You're just sitting there like, damn, who I got on my side. So having the right team and just, you know, I'm a mom.

I got three kids, four, three, and two. So I realize now, like, all right, this is bigger than me. Like, I can't, I cannot lose. I might throw the towel in, but for some reason, a towel gets thrown back in my face because I got so many people looking at me and expecting me to win. How was your husband during this time because his business is connected to your business

which is the family business so it's not like you can do something that doesn't affect him or he can't do anything that doesn't affect you so how was he during that time? You know I'm going to be honest with you so Derek is doing incredibly well like he's at number 16 going on 30 franchisees

he just got named top six French restaurants in the country he just made the cover a QSR magazine for the April issue. So like he's popping. So can you imagine being young, married to a very successful man and also being very successful.

And while my shit is crumbling, okay, he is elevating in real time. So when you're in a relationship with somebody and one is winning real big and then the other one is falling at the same time, we had to navigate that. And that was incredibly hard. So like, he wanted to be happy with me, but I'm sitting in the corner

sad. You know what I'm saying? I'm sitting in the corner trying to strategize like, okay, congratulations, but I got this going on. And reason why I'm being transparent about that because a lot of people, especially entrepreneurs in relationships, they don't talk about the dark side of what happens if one person is winning. Any other person is not. You know what I'm saying? Like, that was hard. It almost cost me my marriage. I was going to ask you a lot of times when you hear those stories, especially how dark things you saying got for you. People don't make it out of that.

No, they don't. So what were those days like of like trying to make sure that you didn't lose the marriage? And what was the day like when you guys sat down and said, maybe we don't need to do this right now. Well, first of all, we ain't got no pre-dub, so I ain't going nowhere. We're not going nowhere, okay? Sit your ass on the couch. But I realize that I'm only, how old am I? I'm 38 years old. My husband's about to be 39 years old. We live in a country club. We have a life that people have prayed for. We got a beautiful family. We do beautiful things with our family.

And I'm like, it's bigger than us now. So yes, we have our days. and yes, it gets incredibly difficult. But tell me when the last time you all seen two black entrepreneurs who both separately owned multi-million dollar companies who have both made history separately and together. When the last time you've seen that as Beyonce and Jay-Z, but in the restaurant space, you ain't never seen it. So we have the opportunity to really change the trajectory

of how black entrepreneurs especially see success in business. And yes, it gets comfortable, but what I believe is, is that God has made us, has put us on display, right? And sometimes when you get put on display, being on display is uncomfortable. Okay, it's just like a merchandiser goes into a retail spot and puts clothes on the mannequin. Okay. But when you're on display, the people who want to see you are going to walk by and say, hey, I want that. So being on display ain't never mean that it's always going to look good.

Sometimes it's going to hurt. Sometimes you're going to cry. Sometimes you're going to feel isolated. but in order to evolve and elevate and who you're trying to be, isolation is going to come with that. And we know that and because we know that we're so much better off as a couple.

Well, we got so hard because most people would think if I'm effed up, my husband got me. My husband, he's going to pad me and make sure I'm good and vice versa. If he's effed up, I'm got him. So what got so crazy? Like what made it seem like that you almost got a divorce? What was that bottom line?

Because both of y'all are in the situation where y'all got each other? So you ever heard sometimes when people come from a space of love and some people come from a space of survival. Of course. So when I'm in a space of survival and he's navigating through his space of love, that's like oil and water. Yeah.

You know what I'm saying? And I'm literally speaking from a place of truth here because a lot of people won't vocalize this, but like it got really incredibly hard where like here it is. I have this $100 million brand, but my payroll is $350,000 a week. Okay? And I'm not getting financially supported by the people on my team. so that I can get out of the debt that I'm in so that I can continue to grow

and now my husband is raising money he's doing all of the things so you have outside noise right that are coming in to try to corrupt and poison the bond that we've created so we really had to put like a barrier over our relationship to understand like it's us against

the world right we got these five little kids that are looking up to us and expecting us to win and we're not going to let the outside world win so like whatever it takes we're going to do And that's what we're doing in real time. Well, you talked a lot about the debt that you were in, like in that being a storyline on the show.

So going back to the beginning with the having to buy back your business, when you had to buy back your business, you were talking about all of the overhead. I think it was like $10 million in over. 20 million dollars in overhead that you were facing, right? Because of expansions and things of that nature. Then you buy back the business. Then you file for bankruptcy.

Can you talk us through, because I know a lot of people were like, I saw the skit that you posted on Instagram. A lot of people thought that that meant that you had nothing. You were down and out. Talk about your decision to file for bankruptcy after buying your business back. Okay, so entrepreneurs, I need y'all to hear me. I don't know if y'all saw a video circulating where I said, do not put anything in your personal name.

Have y'all seen that clip? Find it after this interview. So the reason why I said that clip is because here it is, at my peak 14 locations, slutty vegan. It cost me between 800,000 to a million to open up each location. I raised $25 million in 2022. company got valued at $100 million. We're kicking in the middle of a pandemic.

In the middle of a time where inflation is through the roof, you know, right? Inflation is through the roof. Supply chain is crazy. So there's like a 6x on everything. So we did everything that we said that we were going to do in business. The problem is that when you grow that fast, right, sometimes you put basketball players on a golf course. You understand what I'm saying? So you got people that do an incredible job in their skill set, but then you put

position them somewhere else and they can't do what you need to do to take you where you need to go. So as a result, we got $20 million in debt, right? And as a result of that debt, we were drowning. So yes, we were making money double-digit millions. But if your payroll is high and if you have all of these costs and everything is adding up, your bottom line is going to be read. But what I didn't know is when we were growing a company, everything, I'm just signing my name on personal guarantee because nobody ever thinks about the business that it will fail. Nobody thinks like, okay, this ain't going to work one day so don't do that especially not me like I have this company

lines down the block everybody loves this brand and then one day I look up and I got all of this that and I'm like okay cool I can file an assignment for the benefit of creditors okay do you all know what that is no that is bankruptcy's first cousin okay so it's an out of court procedure that

you file if you need to restructure your business it cleans your cat table so if you have investors you no longer have investors I was no longer the CEO none of that okay so I did not own a company for 43 days. And an estate that took the company, they took the assets and they took the debt

so that they can sell off the assets so that they can pay off the debt, okay? And then they sell the business to somebody who wants to buy it? But who else gonna buy a slutty vegan stuff for me? So 43 days later, I bought the company, but here's the kicker. After I bought the company,

I'm like, okay, cool, everything is good. Next thing I know, the creditors are coming after me personally because I'm the party responsible. from the old co. So even though the old co is dead and I don't have to deal with the old co no more they're coming after me because they're like, all right, she's a public figure.

She got it. She can pay for it. But smart entrepreneurs know is that you don't really hold no assets in your personal name. On paper, I ain't got nothing personally. And as it should be. So, okay, all right, you have to file for bankruptcy because I got lawsuits.

I'm walking into St. Regis. I'm getting served lawsuits. All of these things from old co. So now this, becomes a part two of that restructure. But, you know, the internet be internet. So now you have currently, how many active locations you have? I got seven.

And then I have over a dozen franchises in the pipeline. Now, you said you had 14 at one time. Yeah. What was the reason that a lot of those franchises closed? Because, I mean, it seemed like you said, there was lines around the corner. I mean, during COVID, especially in the Atlanta. I mean, it was packed. It was pop.

It was music. I've been to a couple of events. So what happened that allowed that made those locations closed? So as soon as we did the restructure, the estate closed majority of those locations. Even though they were making money? Yeah, even though they were making money. They just didn't have the people to run those companies. Like, you know, I had Spellman and they closed Spellman.

It was this whole big thing. I didn't close Spelman. The estate closed Spelman. You understand what I'm saying? So the estate came in and closed the locations that they just didn't want to deal with. All of my stores made money. All of them. I could, my lowest

revenue stores do better than the average restaurant, but they just didn't want to deal with them. It's an estate company. They come in, fold everything over it. They just want to kind of like streamline and limit down, which is okay because what that did is, it made me a smarter entrepreneur, right? Like even my lowest revenue store I would hold on to because of ego, right?

But I had to learn in the process. If you got a store that ain't doing at least $1.2 million, you might need to close that store up and do something different. You know what I'm saying? So like, there's so many things that, I have learned as an entrepreneur in this process and I'm so glad that I had the hiccups. I'm so glad that sometimes things

didn't go right because it really only made me stronger and wiser. You know what I'm saying? So when I do it again, I know exactly what to do differently. Are you opening up in Spelman again? No. Why not? Just college campuses, like, it's not a year-round business. So, like, you relying on them in school. It's just,

it's not lucrative enough, to be honest. Spellman was great. Shout out to Spelman, but it's just not lucrative enough. Now, we also seen something that They, uh, they, uh, change your house. Yeah. Oh my gosh. They didn't want to let you in your house. So, you know, it's funny.

They said you had to sleep outside. And they said it was raining all on your head. They did. Okay. And I ain't got no hair. No umbrella. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

It's not good. Nothing. So what happened? So what happened was is, um, so what happened was is, um, you're in real estate. So you can also speak to this. So I had a tenant. Tenant moved out. the house was abandoned.

So I'm just going to assume that the creditors locked the doors because the house was abandoned. Because the house was abandoned, the grass didn't get cut. So they changed the locks. Not my mortgage company, the creditor. Okay. So my realtor was like, hey, Pinky, somebody changed the locks. We can't get in. I'm like, what are you talking about?

We're calling everybody. So my attorney go down to court and file an emergency motion so that they can change the locks. We still, till this day, we don't even know who the company is. they didn't show up to court at all. So they tried to force bankruptcy on that house. That's what it seems like they tried. No, no, no, no. The house wasn't delayed on payments.

So why did they? It probably was the HOA. I don't know that to be true because they haven't responded. But the house was, the house was occupied for three years and then vacant for two years. So because it was vacant, me and my attorneys, we're just assuming that because it was vacant, they consider it abandoned. And you could do that if you feel like a house is abandoned. So the grass wasn't cut for two years? No, no, no, no.

For two months. Oh, okay. All right. Yeah. But again, my assumption. So we went to court and I won, not only did I win, I won attorney's fees. And then obviously we're taking further action because that's really some real reputational damage on somebody. When you're assuming that they lost their house.

You understand what I'm saying? This is an investment property. Then they put my personal house on the Internet. It's crazy. But I realize that, one, people on the Internet don't read. Okay? Two, people will take a salacious headline. No, I really realize that now.

but I'm so secure within my skin that it won't bother me I'm like all right keep it moving so now I'm gonna troll y'all ass back so when you see my little skits that's why you see my skits because if I got you watching now I'm gonna give you something to watch

No, they have to take care of it. But it depends on like if you want to get a second generation location, it could be $200,000 or $55,000 to a million.

It just depends on where you want to go. Okay. What's going on with the session? We're about to go on the road. So I can't say the full announcement, but it's about to happen. Oh, the last thing that I did not say, and I have to say this. So I partner with Earn Your Leisure. We are doing an online digital YouTube series teaching adults financial literacy.

So did y'all see my video that I did, Ms. Rachel Paradis. Yeah, we're going to be doing more of that because I realize that sometimes people don't get it unless you put it on 808. All right. Ladies and gentlemen is Pinky Co. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get to the latest with Lauren. I'm becoming a straight fact.

Tell her, lady. She gets them from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the detail. I'm a home girl that knows a little bit about everything. She'd be having the latest on this. The latest with Lauren La Rosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have detail, sometimes you have a little bit everything.

Well, it's the looters. Brought to you by Top Dog Law. On the Breakfast Club. Talk to me. So it was revealed yesterday that the woman who shot over 10 times at Rihanna's home, Ivana Lissette Ortiz will now be stripped of her speech

language pathology license so she had what? She should never come home. It doesn't matter if she got her license or not. The reason why they did that is because the reason why they did that is because remember the last update I gave you guys, I said that she was in court, she pled not guilty and there was a bell

that was said. The bell was $1.875 million right? So when the board, the speech pathology board in California saw this, they submitted documents because just in case she was ever able to pay that and was released in the time, they want to make sure she isn't able to go out and work. So that's why they did it. And, you know, with that job,

she would have been able to work in schools, nursing homes, hospitals, working with people who have speech disabilities or, you know, stuttering, things of that nature. So they wanted to make sure. That woman needs to be in somebody's psych ward forever. Absolutely. Nobody would hire. Yeah, at this point. But, you know, it's all people.

paper now. All right. In other news. So this is some days old, but wanted to bring the update back here. So you know how Drake and Universal Music Group have been going back and forth? The last time we talked about this, I told you guys, that there was a judge that dismissed Drake's defamation

lawsuit saying that not like us can't be taken as facts and that it makes no sense of what he's trying to claim. Now they've been Drake has been fighting back against that dismissal. He wants to appeal it. And Universal Music Group is responding. to the fact that he is fighting back against that dismissal

and they're calling him a hypocrite. They're right. So UMG fired back at Drake's appeal and they say that because on Drake's side he's saying that the lawsuit is going to destroy how, like what artists are allowed to do and how they can weaponize words. But UMG is saying that Drake's lawsuit would destroy

hip-hop's creative foundation which is built on wordplay. They're calling him a lawsuit because they point to the fact that Drake used the same platform, UMG's same platform to promote his own, lyrics, his own music, and now he's making it seem as if what Kendrick Lamar did was something that was able to actually make people believe that he was indeed

a pedophile. But he made claims against Kendrick as well. It is absolutely positively very hypocritical. Yeah, and that's what they're stating, and they wanted to be clear on paper that that is how they felt. Now, Drake will have to answer to this. His answer is supposed to be back in on April

17th, so they're going to be going back and forth for paperwork. I don't know how this continues. It's not tied yet. It's a disfew. It's a disc record, right? And we've heard worst disc records in history of hip hip hop. The fact that you sue for a disrector when you did something just as disrespectful it's crazy.

Did he lose any business behind it? Like can he prove that he lost anything or whatever? If the case had to have been forward he would have had to prove that. But he was claiming that he was claiming that it caused harm to his business, his brand, and just the safety of him as well too in his family. Drake has prolonged this L.

I mean, God damn, we'd have been over this battle a long time. I mean, ago if it wasn't for these legal proceedings. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, so when April 17th comes, if anything is not pushed and I will keep you guys updated there as well too. Now

Lotto to Lotto. So Lotto posted a behind the scenes clip. She did the magazine. Remember I told you guys she was on the cover of paper magazine where she revealed that she was pregnant along with her new song, business, and personal. So now she's giving us a little little bit more details as to her

pregnancy. In this behind the scenes video, She reveals, well, she says that she's eight months pregnant. But in this clip that you're about the here, she talks about what she wants a boy or girl. Let's take a listen. You know this is a girl now. This is a girl. And I know you lying and you know already. No, I'm not lying.

Oh, good. That's how she's a girl. I can tell how her stomach looks. I'm a girl. They're so straight out. What would you like? What you want? A girl.

We both want a girl. But I don't find if it's a boy because he's going to be obsessed with me. I know that's right. You know. And where was she at? So she did a, it's like a behind-the-scenes vlog. So first she's at the-Nini Leaks, thing? Yes, that was Nini Leaks in Freidra from Real House of Atlanta.

Yeah, so at first she's at the photo shoot for the paper magazine cover. And then she goes to, they have a party to celebrate the cover. So that at like a restaurant, her friends are there, Nini Leaks and Fager, who we've seen photos of at this event. But now that baby ain't get no sleep around Nini Lai. I know.

What's wrong? You meant he's going to be fighting at WrestleMania. Imagine a man saves in your phone is WrestleMania. God, damn. Oh, God. Jesus Christ. The last day of women's history month? Yes.

We're up in today, Jess. The last day of women's history month, I'm going to honor Brittany from the Fox sitcom REL for her protective instincts. The character brings a bold, bad bitch energy to the show. She is described as having a vigilante parenting style stepping in to guide others when she sees they need it. I also want

to honor her for her unwavering loyalty as a best friend. Brittany acts as the moral support for the main character Rao after his divorce. She is portrayed as a loyal friend who would not abandon him during his struggles representing a strong protective friendship. So shout out to all of Brittany's out there.

Oh, and do you all want to know who Brittany was played by? They don't even know the show. Come on. Just on. Who was Britney played by? He was played by Jessica Robin Moore, Saliva, me right here. Oh, okay.

Okay, I remember now. Oh. So it's still out your, you know, it's on demand. It was the Fox sitcom that Rell and I did years ago, and y'all can find it anywhere. Sim bad is in his two. He played my golf over. So shout out to all of Britney's in the world.

Last day. You've struggled. Oh, that's just the last day. It's the last day. You got through it. Thank you. Appreciate it. Solomon, you got a positive note?

I do have a positive note, man. And it's simple. It's reiterating something I told you all earlier, man. I don't know why people get so anti-something. Right? People will be anti-everything everything, right? Ant-Inty what your religion is, anti-what your sexuality is, anti-who you voted for. Hey, man, just mind your own business.

Okay, take care of your own affairs and don't worry about other people so much. Life is easier when you mind your own business. Have a blessed day. Breakfast club, bidsies. You're on finish or y'all done? Woke up, wake you up. Wake that ass up. Program your alarm to power 105.1 on IHeartRadio.
