Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman, Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa

Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise.

Oh, yeah? Tired on your vacation? Well, yeah, you could call it that.

It wasn't really a vacation. It is. I'm celebrating my daughter's 21st birthday. So how is that not a vacation? Is it work? It's not work, but, you know, it's making sure that she's happy and taking her out and doing the things that she wants to do. So I guess it's a little vacation and also celebrating. Yeah, so it's a lot of fun.

So I'm back today, though. Okay, all right. How are you feeling? What did you do yesterday? I'm good. Yesterday, I actually hosted Pinky Cole, her book launch, Eat Plants, Bitch. You know her as the owner of Slutty Vegan. Yep. She already has nine locations and her company is valued at $100 million after she raised $25 million.

I love it. In this latest round. And the food is amazing. So the book is actually a cookbook. It has 91 different recipes. Wow. I'm going to try some of them because, you know, I love a good vegan meal, and I love when a vegan meal, you can't. They did a whole contest.

Well, not a contest, but they did this whole thing to see. They pulled three people up to see if they could tell which meal was vegan and which wasn't. And they couldn't tell the difference. They actually picked the wrong one. Yeah, after this vacation, I might have to turn vegan. I've been eating like crazy. So much seafood, lobster, shrimp, you name it. Anything that comes out the damn ocean, I've been eating and I've been enjoying.

Yep, anything. All right. And then after that, I had a day yesterday. I actually went to the Puma store to celebrate Lauren London's new Puma collection at their flagship store. So she was there. So shout out to Miss Lauren London. And then I was the

lifeline for Roxy Diaz from 106th and Park formerly. And Chantel I was their lifeline for the show that Kevin Hart has, Game Face. Okay. So you was out and about and running around yesterday. All right.

Well, let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Man, police do have that student in custody who is suspected of fatally shooting three current players and wounding two others, fatally shooting three current players at the school's main campus in Charlottesville. So we'll tell you the information about the suspect, Christopher Darnell Jones Jr. Alright, so sad. We'll get into that next and more, so

don't move. Charlamagne's on his way. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. BNV Anjaliye. Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Now on Monday Night Football, the Eagles lost to the Commanders 32-21. So now the Eagles' record is now 8-1.

Still number one in the division, though. But shout out to Washington Commanders. Now what else we got, Yeezy? All right. Well, let's talk about the student suspect who is now in custody after three football players were killed and two others were wounded. The suspect is Christopher Darnell Jones Jr. He is facing three charges of second degree murder and three counts of using a handgun in the commission of a felony. He was arrested without incident around 11 a.m. yesterday, about 80 miles east of Charlottesville.

The people, the students who were killed were Devin Chandler, Lavelle Davis Jr., and Deshaun Perry. The two wounded students are being treated with one in critical condition and the other in good condition, but they did not release their names. Right now, according to reports, the suspect had been known to campus police. They said

authorities found that he had made a comment about possessing a gun to somebody who was unaffiliated with the university, but the person never actually saw the gun in question. And it wasn't also part of a threat to anybody. So they did say the person said they felt that it was important to share that information as well. Now, federal prosecutors are working with local authorities. And his father, Christopher Darnell Jones Sr., actually did an interview with NBC12

and talked about his son. He said he had some problems. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.

I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God.

What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.

And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.

Listen to Haunting on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The last time I talked to him, he said some people were picking on him. He didn't know how to handle it, and I just told him, don't pay it any mind and just go to school. According to the interview, the father said he was really paranoid and he wouldn't tell me everything.

He was a very sensitive young man. They spoke about a month before Christopher Darnell Jones Jr. allegedly opened fire on a bus full of football players who were returning to the Charlottesville campus from a field trip. He said he last saw his son when he came to his house to do some laundry. He seemed like he was doing well. And he said he just told him just to go to school. Yeah, he said, yeah, I mean, the father said that someone said he was being picked on and bullied

and didn't know how to handle it. And, you know, that's that's one of the most difficult things. And of course, killing nobody is never the answer. But, you know, we need to have more safe places for kids to call and feel comfortable and get some type of help. And I don't know what that is. But as a kid, I was bullied. So I understand what it was. And I understand wanting to get revenge and understand wanting to get my get back at times. But, you know, I mean, it's a difficult thing. And I feel sad for both sides, honestly. Yeah.

And the father did apologize. I mean, there's, you know, I'm sure this is his worst nightmare. He said his son is now an accused murderer. And he used to be a friend to everyone and excelled at everything. He said, why did I have to get this far? He could have called me if he had called me Saturday. I think maybe I could have talked him out of some things. Maybe, hopefully, but

I can't even imagine the pain that the family of those three students who were killed what they're feeling right now. Yeah, but it's like when you snap, it could have been to the point where I just can't take it no more. And I need to do something back. But if there was a place, like maybe a safe place to call or if you would have reached out to his dad, maybe his dad would have been like, you know what?

That's not the way. That's not the answer. We'll handle it a different way. It's just difficult, man. It's just really difficult. Again, condolences to those young men, their families and RIP. It's just sad all the way around. All right. And Odell Beckham Jr. is suing Nike for over $20 million,

and he also put out a statement. He said, Being a Nike athlete and brand icon was a dream I've had since being a young boy. When Nike exercised its right of first refusal to match the Adidas offer, it not only kept me as a Nike athlete, but also made me one of their brand icons. My dream had been fulfilled. Unfortunately, Nike did not honor its commitments.

Throughout our partnership, I have kept my promise and fulfilled my obligations to the brand. I am extremely disappointed that I've had to take these measures to ensure Nike fulfills their obligations and promises. Today, I'm taking a stand, not just for me, but to set a precedent for all athletes who've dedicated their life to the sport they love, especially those who don't have the means to stand up for themselves.

So he said, we are responsible for fulfilling our obligations under our contracts, but we also have to hold powerful companies like Nike accountable for honoring their commitments too. Yeah, it's going to be a contract fight. Whatever was in that contract, whatever he agreed upon, whatever those lawyers went back and forth and said, okay, that's what this is going to be about. I know they said there was a fine print that nobody's seen, allegedly. Problem with that is that's what you pay your attorney for. You pay your attorney to look at the fine print, the big print, the left print, the right print.

It doesn't matter. They're supposed to look at their contract and make sure that they take care of everything. How many times do you want to see Odell's print, bro? You want him to be a giant again? Good morning to you, Charlamagne. Is that how you walk in? You walk in talking about the man's print? You talking? I walked in and you talking about the man's print.

Well, according to what's in the contract, allegedly he was the first player in the NFL to receive such a title as a brand icon. That's what he was supposed to be. And Nike allegedly kept just over $2 million of the nearly $2.6 million he was owed in March

of 2022, and Odell Beckham Jr. also alleges that he contacted Nike about the discrepancy in pay, but also questioned the status of his guaranteed extension, and he was allegedly told by Nike that he failed to meet the required benchmark by almost $70 million, and he attributed the

dispute over the threshold to incorrect language in their deal. Yeah, I don't think Odell would be suing if he didn't have a lawsuit. I'm sure that whoever his legal team is, they wouldn't be pursuing, especially a lawsuit against a company like Nike, they wouldn't be pursuing that

if they didn't think they had a case. Yeah, it is a legal matter now. And he also alleges that Nike stopped actively manufacturing and or selling royalty-generating products after 2020 to make sure that he didn't meet the benchmarks that he was supposed to meet to get paid. Like I said, whatever's in that contract that his lawyers agreed upon,

it's what's allowing him to sue Nike. So we'll have to see. And nobody's going after a company like Nike if they don't think they got a case. Sounds like he's got a case. All right, well, that is your Front Page page news. Alright, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051 if you need to vent. Phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. Is it your time to get it off your chest? Whether you're man or blessed. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So if you got something on your mind, lay it out. Hello, who's this? This is James from the Bronx. James. What up? Get it off your chest.

What's going on, man? I got to talk about this traffic, bro. New York traffic. Yo, what is it about New York that people can't drive and the traffic is always crazy it's all it's all times the hours now too it's not like it used to be where you could you know hit hit the tunnel or the bridge at a certain time and be good now it's all times of day and night but that seems like it's everywhere if you ever in atlanta traffic is crazy if you in la traffic is crazy florida traffic is crazy traffic is. Bro, but I'm saying it's like 5 o'clock in the morning.

Hey, bro. Oh, yeah, you're right. 5 o'clock in the morning is crazy for the New Orleans. That don't even make no sense. Yeah, it doesn't. That's what I said. It's all times of day and night, bro. If I leave to get to work like 10 minutes late, the traffic is so different than if I would have left on time.

Oh, man. With me, it's a game of inches and minutes, really. If I have to stop to get gas, I'm going to be late. I think it's because less people are taking public transportation. Probably because of safety reasons, too. Maybe. But what about the traffic? They got these traffic jams now that's even worse now. So now, if you're moving

like 30 miles, 35, you won't get a ticket, plus you in this traffic. Now, you know what I'm saying? It's like a double whammy getting hit with all the time, and New York got to cut that out, bro. They got way more cameras now, especially in the morning. I've been getting tickets left and right for going 10 over or 7 over.

You got to just go under 35. That's how you don't get a ticket. If you go anything above 10 miles per hour, that's how you get a ticket from those cameras. Good luck, brother. Hello, good morning. Good morning. Who's this? Good morning. Good morning, Bosses Club. This is Crystal from Jacksonville, Florida. Hey, bro. Hello. Good morning. Good morning. Who's this? Good morning. Good morning, Buffett's Club. This is Crystal from Jacksonville, Florida.

Hey, Crystal. Please, Crystal. Good morning. How y'all doing? I just want to get off my chest that I know a lot of people in the world, everybody's going through something, whether it's death, whether it's the recession, you know. And I just wanted to know that there's always somebody in a worse situation than you. Like, their situation could always be worse.

That's a fact. Absolutely. And it could always be better. Yes, it could always be better, definitely. But you just have to take the time and pray to God and just let him hear your cries, you know, because he's the one that's going to make everything okay. But I just want to send some love to the world. Thank you, Queen. What are you going through? Yeah, what are you going through, hon?

I mean, I'm going through a lot. I'm a single mom and I'm just doing it on my own and it's really hard right now. And at times I feel like I just want to give up, but I can't because I have three babies that I need to take care of who look up to me, who need me, you know? And it's just really hard sometimes, so I just want to put it out there that if you know somebody

or you have somebody that's going through something, check on your people because they may be putting up a disguise that everything is okay and it's really not okay man the blessing that god has coming to coming towards you is going to be so incredible because even though you're going through all of this you woke up this morning and decided to speak positive energy over so many other people's lives you decided to wake up this morning and pour into other people and wish other people well. Watch the blessing God has coming for you.

Remember I said it. Yes. Thank you, Sean. Man, I love you guys. I listen to you every day. And blessings to you all, okay? Love you more. All right, you have a great one, mama.

And you get to them kids that want to rush through them because they ain't got nothing to say and everybody ready to eat. Okay? Get it off your chest.

800-585-1051. We got rumors on the way? Yes, and let's talk about 21 Savage. Some comments that he made yesterday had people up in arms. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's talk Nas, 21 Savage. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's talk Nas, 21 Savage. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. Listen up. All right.

Well, there was a clubhouse room, and this happened over the weekend following the release of Nas' album, King's Disease 3. And apparently, 21 Savage said some things that struck a chord with people. They were talking about Nas being one of the greatest rappers of all time. And here's what 21 Savage had to say. I don't feel like he's relevant. I just feel like he's got...

None of them are relevant. He's not relevant. He just has a loyal-ass fan base. Thank you. Just a loyal fan base. And he still make good-ass music. They don't have a loyal fan base, and he still make good-ass music. They don't have a core fan base? All right. Well, Nas's brother, Jungle, has already responded and said,

21 Savage is trash. Glad Nas dropped King's Disease 3 so fans can hear real bars. 21, can you do something for me? Well, whether 21 Savage is trash or not is an opinion. I don't feel that way, but 21 is absolutely wrong about what he said about Nas. Like, Nas will forever be relevant because he's Nas. Like, the fact that he's even being discussed in that clubhouse lets you know that he'll forever be relevant. Not to mention, Nas is something that a lot of people in this business hope to be, and that's a legend, an icon, a classic, a one-on-one.

When Nas' first album came out, 94? 94. I mean, he just won a Grammy a year ago, so obviously he's relevant. Forget the Grammy. He's had a 28-year career. That should be the goal for anyone in the business. From his music catalog to his investment portfolio, Nas is forever relevant.

Just because you're having a hot week, 21, because you got an album with Drake. Let's not get crazy, young king. Nas' album is dope, by the way. Yes, King's disease 3 is very dope. I mean, Hit Boy and Nas haven't missed with any of the King's diseases or the magic, by the way. I mean, I'm sure there's still some artists, some legends that put out records

that are not good, but Nas is still putting out relevant, good music. And his investment portfolio and his music catalog. The man has had a 28-year career. Come on come on bro he was being discussed in the clubhouse nas is classic he's forever relevant correct yeah so there's no way and people were definitely uh coming at 21 savage for his comments and he did uh backpedal after getting some some heat for that. You know how long 28 years is? 21 Savage is only 30. So Nas' music career from 1994 to now has been almost as old as 21 Savage.

Yeah, and I was looking at some of the comments for people who had some things to say about that. And it was interesting. But he said, I would never disrespect Nas or any legend who paved the way for me. Y'all be trying to take stuff and run with it. And I mean, he technically still said Nas was relevant because he said he has a loyal following.

He makes good ass music. What else do you want? 28 years in. But also check Nas' investment portfolio. Do the roof. Please. All right. Just go take a peek at it.

All right. Now, let's talk about the American Music Awards. Lil Baby, Glorilla, and Ari Lennox will all be performing. That's going to be at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

from a gasoline car fire. I saw that happen. He told Page Six yesterday afternoon, I got some serious burns from a gasoline fire. I am okay. Just need a week or two to get back on my feet. TMZ reported that he's an avid car collector. I'm sure you know that, Envy. He was in the LA garage where he stores his dozens of vehicles when one of them burst into flames. The explosion severely

burned the left side of his face without causing injury to his eye or ear. He was then sent to the burn center and it was a very serious medical emergency. He had to miss a scheduled appearance in Vegas on Sunday night and they didn't give that many details at first, but he has said that he is going to be okay. Yeah, it was one of those

older cars. I think the car was like 110 years old. It had a fuel problem and he, I guess went to check it and the fuel shot on his face. Cars ran off gas 110 years ago? I guess so. They had cars 110 years ago? Yeah, it's one of them old, old, old, old

cars. Jesus. It's really 110 years old? Yeah. Okay. And y'all remember the Fyre Festival, right? How can you forget? I just want to make sure. Billy McFarlane, he's the man behind the fire festival, right? That didn't end up happening. How can you forget? All right. I just want to make sure. All right. Well, Billy McFarland,

you know, he's the man behind that fire festival. He ended up going to jail. He has now issued an apology letter to the Bahamian government. And that was yesterday, hours after the deputy

prime minister, Chester Cooper, said they want nothing to do with his next venture. And so he's trying to do some type of treasure hunt in the Bahamas. What? Yes, here's what he said

Hey guys, it's Billy McFarland as you might know I F'd around and because of that I Definitely found out Obviously, I've had a little bit too much time to think about this But I do feel like the moment's right to start making this up to everybody you might have guessed but i'm working on something new this time it's a little crazier but a whole lot bigger than anything i've ever tried before i promise i'm going to tell you everything in november but before we get there there's one thing you need to know now this time everybody's invited where's andy where's andy that's all you care about who That's all you want to know. Who team is Andy on now? Whose team is benefiting from Andy's mouth?

For people who don't know who Andy is, Charlamagne, explain. If you don't know who Andy is, you don't need to know who Andy is. But those who know need to know where is Andy at. Whose team is benefiting from Andy's mouth? Andy, somebody's looking for you. Now, let me ask you a question. This don't sound crazy. This don't sound privileged by all types of things.

Well, listen, the government of the Bahamas will not endorse or approve any event in the Bahamas associated with him. He's considered to be a fugitive with several pending complaints made against him with the Royal Bahamas Police Force. Anybody knowing of his whereabouts should report that. What do you mean he's a fugitive? He escaped from jail? That's what they're saying in the Bahamas. So I guess there's complaints. You know, he went to jail here.

He actually served four out of six years of a six-year sentence. So he went to jail for four years. And he pleaded guilty to two counts of wire fraud over that event. But this is according to the deputy prime minister in the Bahamas, the minister of tourism. They're like, if you try to come here, you are a fugitive here in the Bahamas. You're going to go to jail. Oh, so there's warrants for him in the Bahamas.

Yes. There's still complaints against him there. So he got to stay out. Well, got to send Andy in there. Send Andy in there. Andy might clean that whole thing up for him. I'm serious. Clean it all up for him.

Andy might go have a meeting with the prime minister. Prime minister might come out with a smile on his face. Okay, ready to grant access to the whole team. All right, well, that is your rumor reports. Where is Andy? Where is Andy? Nobody's done an update on Andy. Where is Andy now?

That's a good question. All right, when we come back, we got front page news what we talking about. All right, well, let's talk about,

now this was so hard to watch and this actually made the rounds and went viral, but we'll talk about a man who was beaten, a 41-year-old black man. He was beaten while in custody

at the Canman County, Georgia Detention Center. This happened in September, the Canman County, Georgia, detention center. This happened in September. Jarrett Hobbs. And we'll talk about this case. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club.

Everybody, it's DJ, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now last night, the Commanders beat the Eagles 32-21. Now the Eagles are now 8-1. Dropping the clues, Bob, for the Commanders beat the Eagles 32-21. Now the Eagles are now 8-1. Dropping the clues, Bob, for the Commanders. Yes. Not because I like the Commanders, but just because they beat the Eagles, and that was an NFC East game, okay?

Yes, they did. We need the Eagles to lose some NFC East games. What else we got, Yeezy? All right, well, former Vice President Mike Pence did an exclusive interview with ABC's World News Tonight, and he talked about the former president, Donald Trump. Feels like a lot of people are turning their back on Donald Trump right now in the Republican Party

because they feel like a lot of the elections were lost from people that he endorsed. But here is what Mike Pence had to say. Some people also feel like he might be running for presidency against Donald Trump. Here's what he said about Donald Trump. 2.24 p.m., the president tweets, Mike Pence didn't have the courage to do what should have been done.

It angered me. But I turned to my daughter, who was standing nearby, and I said, it doesn't take courage to break the law. It takes courage to uphold the law. I mean, the president's words were reckless. It was clear he decided to be part of the problem. All right. What?

I said, this could be good when them two are going back and forth. No, it's not. Jesus. He'll eat Mike Pence alive. Isn't Trump supposed to announce that he's

running for president today? Yeah, I thought it was supposed to be today. Some people are saying he shouldn't do it. And I've seen some outlets that were so supportive of him that are now going against him.

Here's the thing. The problem with all those individuals is they have no integrity, no honor. If Trump announces today and, you know, he still has the momentum of the people and he looks like he's going to be the candidate for the gop in 2024 they all going to jump back on his d think about all of those old videos you've seen of all of those senators from ted cruz the lindsey graham

whoever talking crazy about trump until trump you know got back in position this is truly the epitome of uh when when hot, they're all over you. When you're cold, they're off you. But I just think that they feel like with these recent elections, they feel like a lot of the people that Trump was endorsing lost, and that's why the Republicans lost the Senate. And if somebody that they feel is a better chance or a better nominee, they'll be behind that person.

Who's better? I don't know who's planning to run you. That's my point. There's nobody out there that has the strength and the power that Donald Trump has in the Republican Party. Some people say DeSantis, but can DeSantis win a national election? I don't know. I'm telling you, all of these people will jump right

back on Donald Trump's D. Yeah. If there's nothing else out there. But I also think they're blaming him for the Republican nominees losing in the midterms. I mean, they gotta blame somebody. It was really the people that he endorsed that lost. Yeah, but they didn't know that until they lost. Before that, they were talking about how much power Trump had,

and they're afraid that Trump can wave his magic wand and get people elected. You don't ever know something's not going to work until it doesn't work. But I guarantee you, they will be back on his D in 2024 if he's a GOP candidate. And I don't know if you've been seeing, if y'all been watching,

there's been more and more MA flags hanging and flying everywhere everywhere more than usual i don't know i definitely haven't yeah i don't see more now and i don't i don't know who they would put uh as the gop nominee other than the santas in 2024 and i don't think the santas is as strong nationally as trump because he won that election handily in Florida. Florida, though. All right, now let's talk about an attorney for a 41-year-old black man who was beaten while in custody at the Camden County, Georgia Detention Center.

This happened in September. The civil rights attorney, Harry Daniels, says that his client, Jarrett Hobbs, was mercilessly beaten by officers. And there's a video that's been circulating. And let me tell you something. Just watching even a little bit of this is so tough to see. Five officers can be seen entering his cell.

One of them grabs him by his neck. They said they ripped one of his dreads out, by the way. And when I tell you they are beating him, I mean, he is on the ground. They're wrestling him to the ground. One of the officers is kicking him. Four out of the five officers appear to be white and one of them appears to be black. They said the video is undeniable and the deputies act. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked

And there's a third video from a different angle, which includes audio, but they're not releasing that video at this time. But according to reports, Hobbs was suffering a psychological episode at the jail and asked to be placed in protective custody. And so not sure how this went so left after that, but now there's an internal investigation.

And this happened September 30th, by the way. So when I tell you there is, I can't even see any explanation for why these five officers would have to beat him down the way that they did. He's not even swinging. He's just a complete victim. Wasn't he handcuffed? Or am I tripping?

He was handcuffed, right? Yeah, he was handcuffed. I mean, they beat his ass. It was awful. I was going to say, let me guess, they got suspended pending investigation. But you said there's an internal investigation. And I never know what there is to investigate in situations like this because we all have eyes. There's never a reason for five police officers to be beaten on a handcuffed man like that.

I mean, there definitely need to be charges. There's no charges against these officers or anything yet. So they're asking for there to be charges. And I do feel like if people make noise about this, you know, that's what you have to do to make sure that people are accountable. All right. It's crazy in a situation like this that a noise has to be made because, you know, somebody in that police department should look at that video and immediately all of those guys should be fired. And what they're saying, the problem was, is that he was kicking his cell door and he was told by jailers to stop after already being warned to stop previously. And he continued kicking. And that's why they approached him, gave him verbal commands.

They put his hands behind his back. And the defendant allegedly did not comply and said, I ain't doing ish. And they gave him orders. And then that's when the physical altercation ensued. And really, the physical altercation was them beating him up. And there's some people who justify him getting beat up because he didn't listen. I mean, he told them that he was having a psychological episode. He asked if he put in protective

custody. What more do you want? That's sad. Yeah, and why would they send him to protective custody if he's having a psychological episode? No, he asked for it. I'm saying, but even with that, it's like he should be sent to a facility like some type of mental health facility. Like there should be somebody that can come in there and help him through his psychological episode.

Don't just throw him in PC. That's inhumane within itself. Right. Well, that is your front page news. All right. Now, yesterday, we reported a story about two young ladies trying to get into a club, right? Yes. They were going to a club.

This club is owned by the Tao Group, and apparently they were denied entrance. It was a whole party of them, and everybody else was allowed into the club, and according to these women, they said they got to the front of the line, and the bouncer looked them up and down and said, not tonight,

and they're plus-size models. All right, so we're asking, have you ever been denied at a club? What did it look like to you? 800- Everybody else in. 105-105-1. New York was notorious with this,

I would say about maybe 10, 15 years ago. I mean, to the point where they're like, tuck in your shirt, tie your shoes, pull up your pants, like, take the hat off. Like, New York was one of the worst i think a dress code is fine i think it's different when you discriminate against somebody and this was in la this was in la dress code nobody else had dress code so in new york to keep minorities out of black people out of clubs what they would do is they would put a different dress code when they

see you you know tuck in your shirt do make you do stupid things especially if it was like the black night if it was the black people night If it was the black people night, they'd do certain things. They would charge more for drinks. And then they would also have a different dress code than they would any other night. What about Dominicans? Did they let them in with the white jeans and the Giants jerseys? 800-585-1051. Have you ever been dead at a club?

What happened? Yo, shut up, man. I wouldn't let them in because of their arched eyebrows, but that's just me. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Let's talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy and Tilly Yee.

Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about these two ladies that were denied access to a club, allegedly because of their weight, correct? Yes, that's what they are alleging. They were with a group of people, and they said everybody else got in, and then when they got to the front of the line, the bouncer looked them up

and down and said, not tonight, and now they started this whole hashtag, not tonight. Alright, so we're asking, have you ever been denied at a club? I'm from New York. So yes, I used to have to go to the club at 9 p.m. I used to have to. They used to do me dirty. And New York used to do everybody dirty.

That was just New York at the time. What about you, Charlamagne? Yeah, I have quite a few times in my life. You know what I mean? And I don't even remember most of them because I don't be caring. OK, one thing about me, I'm a go. I'm celebrated. Not why I'm tolerated. And I've never been that pressed to want to be in a venue that bad. You tell me you don't be caring. Okay, one thing about me, I'm going to go where I'm celebrated, not where I'm tolerated.

And I've never been that pressed to want to be in a venue that bad. You tell me you don't want me in? Cool. I'm going home because the way my anxiety's set up, I don't want to be here anyway. Nah, but if I get myself dressed, I'm out. It's me and the fellas, we make an effort to go out and especially... You got your crisp white jeans on.

Your crisp white jeans on because you Dominican. You got your Timberlands on, your new Tims on and they tell you no no tims or white jeans what are you talking about i wouldn't let you in with tims and white jeans either man i have one instance i will never forget this we were at um this is a long time ago but i was a michael kaiser and we were trying to go to this spot it's like a lounge or whatever and we were outside everybody else was going in. I seen y'all. I seen y'all outside arguing that day.

But go ahead. Yes. Yes. That was not me arguing. That was him. They wouldn't let Mike Kaiser in the club? They wouldn't let Mike Kaiser. It was him at the front, though.

And they seen him. The president of Atlantic Records, Mike Kaiser? And it was, by the way, it used to be the Trump Soho. It was the Trump Soho. Yeah. Now it's called the Dominic. But it used to be the Trump Soho. They had a club in there.

And the guy, and it was definitely feeling super racist. I had no mic in him. Do you know who I am? He did. He started going crazy outside on the guy. He called him a bozo. He said, you have a bozo. Actually, Mike, in that case, you were the clown because you couldn't get in.

I'm like, look, first of all, I thought he was going so crazy. It was actually funny to me. But I was like, the way I am, you couldn't get in. I'm like, look, first of all, I thought he was going so crazy. It was actually funny to me. But I was like, the way I am, if you just say no, I'm out. But I understand how he was feeling because sometimes you feel so disrespected. He kept going. I pulled over and watched y'all. He was screaming. What was the reason?

That's what I'm saying. The whole point is there was no reason. His glasses were too thick. Man, do you know how terrible it is when somebody calls you a bozo? That's what I'm saying. The whole point is there was no reason. His glasses were too thick. It was his glasses. Man, do you know how terrible it is when somebody calls you a bozo? It was his glasses. There's this guy out here saying he's John Sally, man. He don't look like John Sally.

He's kind of large, but not really. My goodness. Let's go to the phone line. Bozo. Hello, who's this? Hey, my name is Antoine. Antoine from where? I'm calling from Columbia, South Carolina. 803, what's this? Hey, my name is Antoine. Antoine from where? I'm calling from Columbia, South Carolina.

803, what's happening? You got denied from a club, brother? Yeah, this was back in the 90s. In a little spot called Five Points in Columbia on Horror Street. Come on now, we know about Five Points. I got denied entry three different occasions. Wow, you still kept going back? Well, Five Points is the actual place.

What was the building? What was the venue called? The name of the venue was the Knock Knock Club. This was back in the 90s on Hard Street. He's still mad. Yo, you told us to add just three times. Look ahead. 30 years later, he's like, I'm still mad.

So wait, you went back three times? Because the first time I told them I couldn't come in, I had a Sean John t-shirt on. They said the logo was too big on my t-shirt. Okay. Second time, told them I couldn't come in because I had red shoes on. The red shoes, it matched my outfit. Third time I couldn't come in because I had cornrows.

They said no cornrows allowed. And you know, in South Carolina, South Carolina has a right to reserve, I mean, restrict service state. That's just something they did

to combat Jim Crow laws and stuff like that. So I got talked to an attorney and that's how I found that out. That I really didn't

have a case to sue the savages. You tried to sue them? Why you kept trying to get into white people clubs and five points, man? All them other clubs in Columbia you could've went to at the time,

especially in the 90s. Because I ain't want to get shot. I knew you was going to say that, but I ain't want to say nothing. I ain't want to say nothing. I ain't want to do that to all people. I mean, I did used to go to Midnight Lounge, Club 48 and all that type of stuff. But every time you went, it always ended with a shootout in the parking lot.

Okay, okay, okay. You asked him. And listen, you ever went to 1800 Blander Street, the main event? Yes, I've been there before. Most dangerous. At one point, it was the most dangerous address in Columbia, South Carolina. But at least you could get in. But boy, it was a good time, wasn't it?

Yeah, but that was years later. That was like in the early 2000s. Yeah, that was early 2000s. That was like 01, 02. You know, it reminds me. I used to have this bowling party every month, and I had it one time at Lucky Strike, and Ray J came, and they said, they tried to not let him in.

They said his jeans were too wide. I've never heard such a thing. Nah, that was their way of saying they didn't want baggy jeans. No, they wasn't baggy. They said the legs of his jeans were too wide. They wouldn't do that to Michael Jordan. If he came in there with them wide-ass jeans, he'd be wearing it. They might.

They disrespected Ray J for no damn reason. They let him in. But I was like, why do I have to argue with y'all to get Ray J in? They said his jeans are too wide. His jeans are too wide. 800-585-1051. Have you ever been denied at a club? Let's talk about it.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I need equity to sign a deal. I ain't no witness. I ain't no witness. I ain't no witness. I ain't no witness. I ain't no witness.

They can't hold me in here with that. Call me. Add your opinions to the Breakfast Club topic. Come on. 800-585-1051. Morning, everybody. I'm V. Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club.

Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about these two ladies that were denied access in L.A. allegedly because of their weight You got the story Yes Alexa J And Ella Halekis They started the hashtag Not tonight Because of their experiences

With size discrimination They said they were going To this club in LA The highlight room And they couldn't get in That night they waited in line And their friends came in It was a party

For one of their friends They stopped And they were the only two that got stopped by the bouncers. And they said they looked them up head to toe and then said, not tonight. Alright, we're asking, have you ever been denied at a club? Hello, who's this? Good morning, Mama.

So we're asking, have you been denied at a club, Mama? So I have. I have a really interesting experience. I've been denied and I've worked at a club. So I'm originally from Miami. And so before Liv became real big, they were not letting anybody in. I can see that.

They were choosing people, taking and choosing. And I just have to say, I don't feel like that's discrimination. They're trying to give up the edge of that club. And Uncle Charlie and Indy. When y'all were young, tell me if this is true or not. When dudes go to the club, they say, is the chicks at the club? That's right. What club is it?

What they look like? That's why they let y'all in free before 11. Let the ladies in free before 11 because guys will pay whatever if the club full of beautiful women. Absolutely. But check it. Just because we're all beautiful on the inside don't mean it all comes out in DNA. And sometimes they'll say, no, not you, Ma.

Your friend can come in, but you can't. And at that point, you got to make a decision. Do I want to sit here and go back and forth with this security and get embarrassed? Or just go ahead. I mean, I think that's whack, though. Your friend can come in, but you can't. They did that a lot in New York, too.

That's terrible. It's not about everybody's feelings, in my opinion. Yeah, but if people are together and they're there for a party and spending money, like, come on. Well, that's why your whole crew got to be a bunch of baddies. If your whole crew ain't a bunch of baddies, then the baddies going to get in. And the rest of y'all going to be early. Oh, what about they used to be like, every guy got to have two women with them to get in. Remember that?

I remember those. You got to have two chicks with you. Yep. I don't mind that. Especially being in this era where dudes started showing up to the club with 15 guys with them. Yeah, we used to be outside going in the club and guys would be like, can we walk in with you? Because we had a bunch of girls and they couldn't get in unless they had women with them. Thank you, mama.

Hello, who's this? Yeah, yeah, this is Leon, man. Leon from where? Good morning. Good morning, Leon. Where you calling from? Leon, St. Bro. All right.. Leon from where? Good morning. Good morning, Leon. Where you calling from? Leon, St. Bro. All right.

We're asking, have you ever been denied at a club? No, but I have seen where a bunch of fat chicks did get denied in a club because they came up in there with two pieces on and their gut hanging out. All that cellulite hanging out. All right, man. Nobody wants to see that, bro. Stop it. You are disrespectful.

First of all. I'm not disrespectful. First of all, let me explain something. There is such thing as a universal standard of beauty. No, it is not. That is a damn lie. What do you look like? That is a damn lie.

What's your Instagram page? We want to see what you look like. There is no universal standard of beauty because you don't know what them girls look like on Mars. Shut up, Ophelia. We don't know what girls look like on Jupiter. Ain't no universal standard of beauty. Stop your lies. No, okay.

Well, go back and do your history. Throughout history, women have been beautiful and two-thirds of a man's weight, size, and height, bro. The white man told you what was beautiful and you just ran with that. I want to know what do you look like? Oh, my goodness. I'm pretty well-looking. I get myself pretty well-looking. I'm pretty well-looking. According to that universal standard of beauty you're talking about,

the women in Africa ain't pretty, bruh, bruh. According to that universal standard of beauty you're talking about, the women in Africa aren't considered beautiful, sir. Universal standard of beauty is blonde-haired, blue eyes, sir. And that's wrong. That's European, bro. No, you said a universal standard of beauty. That is what the...

You're referencing white supremacist talking points. Well, I want to know what you look like. What is your Instagram page? So what's the universal standard of beauty then, sir? I just told you, two-thirds of a man's weight. Two-thirds? I don't even know what that means.

I can't measure that quite fast. So that means if a guy weighs 150 pounds, you got to weigh 120. That's so stupid, man. Y'all hung up on him. I wanted to know what his page was because it always be some funny-looking dude talking about what is beautiful. Like, stop it. Universal standard of beauty. Like, you know what the girls on Mercury look like.

And what do you look like? She's stupid ass. All right, well, what's the moral of the story? I have no idea. He just threw us off. Two thirds of a man's weight. We needed to get his Instagram page because I just wanted to have his comments and shambles.

You're going to go to the club. Excuse me, mom, what's your weight? Well, you're not two thirds of my weight, so you definitely can't. You don't look like the universal standard of beauty. All right. Well, we got rumors on the way. He was an idiot.

I know, but that's all we needed to get his page. All right, and let's talk about a new biopic coming to Lifetime. And this woman does have a very interesting story. All right, we'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. DJ Envy Angelique, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Good morning. What's happening? What's happening? How's everybody feelingagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning. What's happening? What's happening? How's everybody feeling out there? Good. How are you feeling? I want to shout out to Pinky Cole, owner of Slutty Vegan.

I actually hosted her book launch in New York yesterday, Eat Plants, Bitch. And so it's a great cookbook with all vegan recipes, but I love her story and her work ethic. It's just amazing to me. Like nine locations and just growing. Her company is now valued at $100 million. Okay, Pinky.

Dropping the glue balls to Pinky. She got one in Brooklyn? Yes, she has one in Brooklyn. She has one opening in Harlem. She started in Harlem. She actually owned a Jamaican spot in Harlem years ago before all this started. Now she's opening a slutty vegan just blocks away from where there was a grease fire in there.

So then it just wiped out her whole Jamaican restaurant. And so, you know, she didn't know what she was going to do after that. But look at what she did. Yeah, just please don't try to do a vegan Jamaican restaurant. I've seen the vegan oxtails one time. I wanted to cry. Oh, listen. That defeats the whole purpose.

You know that restaurant in Brooklyn, the Simpson, where you know the chef? He got a lot of vegan chicken and he has a vegan chicken brown stew and all of that. So he has a lot of vegan Jamaican. But you know a lot of Jamaicans who are Rastafarian are vegan. Wouldn't it just be vegan brown stew, though? Like, why call it vegan chicken brown stew? Because it's like fake chicken. That can't be good for you, right?

Like, in the long run, we're going to have to realize that these foods that are fake are processed, too, right? Well, it depends on what it's made out of. Most of them are. It depends on what it's made out of because if you make it out of, say, zucchini or you make it out of, you know, there's different things. What is it called?

Jackfruit. There's different things that you can make it out of that is still like a fruit or a vegetable or something like that that's not processed. I think chickens are too, okay? Because their likeness is being used.

Shut up, man. Y'all these jackfruits out here impersonating chickens. And if y'all ever ate a slutty vegan burger, have y'all ever had one? No. I went there in Atlanta

one time. The line was too long. And I didn't want to get denied like how they do everybody at the club. Why don't you just call Pinky or call one of her people? They definitely got you.

I don't know Pinky. Yeah, she's actually here. You know what? I'm going to get some burgers and bring it up here. Because it's in Brooklyn. I can just get them. But when I tell you they are amazing. The first time I had it, I didn't even know about it.

I was in Atlanta at the Revolt Music Conference. And she came and brought me a burger backstage while I was waiting to do my panel. And when I tell you it was so delicious, I didn't even know her. I just posted it because it was so good. Yeah, I don't mind the word burger. Burger can always be interchangeable. You can have a veggie burger. I don't like the word hamburger, especially when it's beef.

So it should be beef burger. Right. Well, why can't you have a veggie chicken? Because it's not real chicken. The burger is a burger. Well, it's not real meat. Huh? But the burger don't have to be a meat.

The burger is a patty. The way the patty is shaped. Okay. Like a turkey burger? Yeah. Okay. My goodness. You guys are just making me hungry right now.

Are you hungry? You want some meat? Shut up, man. When you get to Atlanta, you're an idiot, man. Why am I an idiot? I asked you a question this morning. We're talking about vegan and meat. I asked you, do you want some meat?

Do you want some vegan? Pinky Spot is a vibe, too. I just want to say that out there. If you ever get a chance to go out there, it's a dope vibe. But no, I don't want meat this morning. And she has Bar Vegan, too. So it's a whole bar situation. Vegan alcohol?

No, no. It's a, you know. But they do have. So it's a whole bar situation. Vegan alcohol? No, no. It's a, you know. But they do have. Now y'all going too far. It's a bar that does sell vegan food at the restaurant. And it's dope. It's a vibe. Music is dope.

It's really dope. And Pat, too. So shout out to Pinky really doing her thing. And being really open and transparent about what she went through as a business owner. All right. Well. Pinky salute to you, Pinky. Well, we got rumors on the way.

Let's talk about Lil Baby. He was honored in Atlanta. We'll tell you what he got. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk The View. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to Report. This is the Rumor Report.

Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. So people were concerned for Sunny Hostin after they had a guest on the show, on The View. Megan Toohey, a journalist from The New York Times, who also has a book out about Harvey Weinstein and did a deep dive into that investigation. The book is called She Said. And during that appearance, you could tell she had a really bad cough this was one of the most fascinating pieces of this part of of your movie harvey weinstein barged into the new york times offices can you imagine towards the end of your investigations try and intimidate you and shut down the story. He's a large imposing man. Were you ever scared of him?

And how far did those intimidation tactics go? Yeah, so there is, I'm so sorry for the little baby who gave me, with whom I had postpartum depression, has now been giving me just like a rotation of cold. It happens, man. You know people just like a rotation of colds. It happens, man. You know people be so scared to cough nowadays. Especially after COVID. And I'm a person that gets bronchitis.

I get seasonal bronchitis, so that happens to me. Okay, it happens. It's just a cough, people. When I tell you people are going in like, oh my God. Why? They cough, you're coughing right now. Sometimes you might swallow wrong. In her case, she told you what it was. She got a little something, something from the baby. I don't believe you swallow wrong. Yeah, I ain't gonna lie to you. Sometimes you might swallow wrong. In her case, she told you what it was. She got a little something, something from the baby.

I don't believe you swallow wrong. Yeah, I ain't gonna lie to you. Sometimes you do swallow wrong, but pause. That's disgusting. Oh my goodness. You said it. Tell me how I swallow wrong.

Yo, shut up. No, no, no, no, no. Since we here, and Logan is listening, tell me why I swallow wrong. Because any way I try to explain is gonna sound crazy, but you know sometimes

when the spit goes down or your flunk goes down, you know what? Forget it. Forget it. I'm not playing this game. I can tell you're good it. Forget it. I'm not playing this game with you. I can tell you're good at what you do. I'm not playing this game.

Yo, don't drop no bombs, man. Get out of here. A king. A king is speaking, damn it. Let him talk. Or should I say a queen? A queen is speaking, damn it. Let her talk.

Oh, man. I hate y'all. You done, Envy? I'm done. I'm finished. So go ahead with the spit. No, go ahead. You done, queen?

I'm done. You know, I knew ever since I asked about Andy this morning. This would lead to the type of conversation that we're having right now. All right. Well, let's talk about Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield. They are releasing a cannabis gummy collection together. My wife came up with this holy air situation, right? And I just thought it wouldn't be right if Evander wasn't involved.

It's a real limited edition with the biggest company in the world, and he deserves it. I'm not poverty stricken, but I can use a buck like everybody else. And I said, listen, let's just make some money out of this. Let's make this negative thing something positive, and we can laugh at everybody because it was a joke. I guess the big thing with me was

that I was glad that for the product itself that it helped people. If it's going to help people to be better, then that's what life is really about. I respect it because when I first saw that, that was a while ago when they first announced that.

I thought that to myself, it was Evander's ear. Yeah. It was Evander's ear. It's cherry pie punch flavored. And so Evander said to put him to sleep and he thinks the product is great. Well, I want some. Send some up here, somebody.

All right. Mike Bites. Somebody from Mike Tyson's podcast, Hot Box, and send us some of the medibles. I'd love to try it. Okay. All right. Now let's talk about SNL star Chris Redd.

He actually has to have surgery after being attacked. All right. Now he's scheduled to undergo surgery today to finish the job of permanently repairing his nose that was busted. If you guys recall, here's what he said about the night that he was punched outside of the comedy club. I just got done texting my cousin who was in Olive Tree above the cellar so I could go. Here's what he said about the night that he knuckles because of the way it cut my nose to the bone. And I've been boxing for years. So I know first of all, I've taken a punch to the face before. So it wasn't

terrifying, but what was worrisome is how much blood was coming out of my face. I mean, look, I got two fractures in my nose and a fracture in my cheek. It was safe to assume I was hit with something, but dude just hit me and ran off, man. And I was sitting there.

I fell down so fast, I didn't even know I fell until I looked at the footage. Wow. Damn. Yeah, so now he is going to have to be under general anesthesia for about two to three hours. A plastic surgeon who specializes

in getting his nose back into the correct place is going to have to oversee the operation. And so he's not trying to change anything about his appearance. I know, Envy, you're getting his nose back into the correct place is going to have to oversee the operation. And so he's not trying to change anything about his appearance. I know, Envy, you're getting a nose job. I am not getting a nose job. But this is just for him to get his nose back to its original form. I'm sending Chris Heelan energy. I just still am perplexed as to why he needed to eat his cousin's fries.

Why couldn't he get his own fries before he went on stage? His cousin was there. He wanted to, you know, come say what's up to his cousin. Takes, you know, steals some of your family member's food and keep it moving. All right. A shout out to Lil Baby. November 13th is now recognized as Dominic Lil Baby Jones Day in the city of Atlanta. He got a proclamation from the Atlanta City Council on Sunday in celebration of his successful career and his generous philanthropy.

Did y'all see that video of the woman who was cutting hair? And he gave her a bunch of money and she was just crying. We don't know the exact amount of money that he gave her but it was something that he did off camera. She just decided to tell her story. But when I tell you it was life changing for her and just to see how much

he can affect somebody with his generosity. That was amazing. He's really a good dude. A superstar but still a humble, down to earth good dude. He's really a good dude. A superstar, but still a humble, down-to-earth good dude. So much pressure when you get your own day, too, though. And I think it's because

of Trader Truth, because Trader Truth does so much on his day and around his day. He does a whole week. There's so much pressure when you got a day.

He got camels. Remember he had all that? I'm telling you. I do something every year for Angela Yee Day. That is true. Yeah, I do a free event in Brooklyn for everybody here and anybody who wants to come. But it's nowhere near the level of what Trade the Truth does.

But still, you just try to do what you can. I hope it grows and continues to grow. Yeah, I do charity stuff around my day in South Carolina. That's usually when I do my annual back toto-school book bag drive and stuff like that. So that's what you should do. I think you should do charity around that day. Yeah, whatever you can do. We belong here with the Clara and Joe Foundation here, the owners of The Net.

And they gave to five different organizations in conjunction with that. So that was amazing. That's a good feeling to be able to do that. But a lot of people get their own day and really don't do anything, which is fine, too. That's why I said it's a lot of pressure. It ain't like you asked for it. They just gave it to you.

And it's usually on, like, a random day that you're not even thinking about throughout the year until you get there, you know? Yeah. It's good to be around something. When it's around your birthday or, like, or when it's around something that you're already doing, it makes a lot of sense. And here it's around the West Indian American Day Parade.

It's always around Labor Day weekend uses. Yep. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. All right. Now we got you. Who are you giving your donkey to, Charlamagne? Man, four after the hour, man.

I feel bad because I understand this teacher's pain. But there's a teacher named Samantha Peer. Her and her husband, Dylan Peer, need to come to the front of the congregation. We like to have a word with them. Both of them are teachers, and and her husband dylan pierre need to come to the front of the congregation we like to have a word with them both of them are teachers and i understand their pain but they got to come to the front of the congregation all right we'll get to that next it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club your mornings will never be the same when it's time to get with someone special the best way to do it is with magnum large size condoms that gold foil wrapper is a badge of honor and it means you're protected.

And you take care of things with comfort. Accept no substitutes. Bring the pleasure with the gold standard. Magnum large size condoms. Make you feel just like this. I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. You can see the donkey.

Bunch of... For the donkey of the donkey. Donkey. Bunch of bitches. It's time for the Donkey of the Day. That's pretty funny. Charlamagne the Devil? Possibly. The Breakfast Club. Yes, Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, November 15th goes to an 8th grade teacher in Arizona

named Samantha Peer, a.k.a. Chloe Carter. And her husband, a 4th grade teacher named Dylan Peer. Now, this is an interesting story because literally we were having this conversation this weekend in Nashville. This weekend, we had the Thrill of Possibility Summit in Nashville with a Black Effect podcast network. iHeartRadio and Nissan flew out 40 HBCU students in science, technology and steam STEAM-related courses to introduce them to exclusive career development opportunities. And one of the panels we had consisted of myself and Anjali Yee, Will Lucas, Carrie Champion, just to name a few.

And one of the questions presented was, how does social media impact the workplace? And I was a little confused about the question and didn't know how to answer it because I honestly never thought about what would social media do for, like, you know, the average corporate job. And I actually said on the panel, if you work a corporate job, but you go home and you have a whole other business online, meaning you might be a gossip blogger, some type of influencer, only fan, only fans model. Would that corporate job respect it? You know what I mean?

Think about it. You're a model citizen at work, one of the best employees, but you have a whole other persona online that makes you extra income. Would your corporate day job respect that? Well, I think it depends on what the job is, the corporate day job. And I don't think under any circumstances you should ever mix the two jobs. Well, that's what appears effed up because they are school teachers they are individuals that we trust with our kids so we

expect a certain amount of integrity and honor from our teachers right if i was in fourth or eighth grade and i could go on only fans and watch my teacher busting it open i don't know how that would impact me in our classroom how could i ever call a woman miss pierre when i've seen chloe carter hey miss carter well that's exactly what happened in this situation because samantha pierre aka chloe carter and her husband have been fired for recording only fans videos in her classrooms a side hustle she claimed was necessary to supplement their low salaries let's go to the news report school district is firing two married teachers who they say filmed sexually explicit content on school grounds. The district says that the husband and wife were making content for the

subscription site OnlyFans. You've got to be joking, right? The school told parents that the students had been sharing material involving a staff person, but it was not filmed during school hours. Still very inappropriate. Two married teachers fired for making X-rated videos on school grounds. I agree with the firing, but it is a damn shame how little to nothing teachers get paid. I will never understand it. My mother has been an English teacher in the Berkeley County school system for at least,

at least damn near 40 years, as long as I've been alive. I still, to this day, don't know how she was able to take care of five kids off that salary, but she made it work. Okay, drop on the clues bombs for all the mothers who are public school teachers making it work with those weak-ass salaries. Mama! So, Samantha, I feel your pain,

but you and your husband can't be popping that poom-poom in the classroom. Come on. Samantha said she resigned under pressure on October 31st Halloween after being placed on paid administrative leave and probation now she put out a statement explaining why her and her husband resorted to x-rated videos let's listen my children are the most important thing to me and I'm already spending countless hours outside of my contract time on extra school activities and I don't think it's fair that I have to sacrifice my own children's time because our professional salary did not pay enough. Arizona is currently

ranked 50th state as lowest paid teacher salary. I created a content at the beginning of the summer in order to earn extra money on the side to help pay for our basic necessities that our salaries were no longer meeting. I chose an anonymous name as well as blocking the entire state of Arizona on my OnlyFans so that it wasn't accessible to anyone living in the state. It was brought to my attention on October 24th that a community member had expressed concerns to the police and my school regarding video content. Low salaries made her drop it low on her husband's penis for the world to see how much were they charging maybe the kids in their

classroom couldn't afford it and you can block whole states on only fans who knew who knew you know i don't know how i feel about this outside of her doing it in the classroom her and her and her husband did it in the classroom so i can understand the school letting them go but what if she was doing this in her own home would her and her husband be wrong i mean these platforms exist right these platforms help you make more money is there a moral clause that teachers have that says they can't do things like this because one thing about a lot of these old institutions is that they don't have any language for this new world you know that we live in in them so did she really do something wrong i'm not talking about the classroom doing it in the classroom is why she's getting donkey today

okay because two teachers don't care if you husband and wife doing it in the classroom you're using it's wrong you're using the school and your profession to do X-rated videos. Very fireable offense. Very much so. No. I can't say that. What do you mean? Show me where I can't say that. That's not one of the seven words. I wish I could have hit that

dumb button, but go ahead. What do you mean? Red hit it. All I said was kids could never look at the death the same again Cause that's what Miss Pierce You know Alright

Oh that's what Ross did right We understand Yes okay wouldn't work But what if these folks were doing this at home Just to make some extra money Would they still be fit to teach Would you mind if your teacher And her husband was doing something on OnlyFans, you know, to make some extra money, but they weren't doing it in the classroom?

I don't know. Let's discuss. But in the meantime, please give Samantha and Dylan Pierce the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the doggy of the day. Yee-haw. Yee-haw. I mean, totally wrong. I mean, they shot it in the classroom.

That's just disgusting. I mean, it's not disgusting. It's inappropriate. It's disgusting. I haven't seen the video to know if it's disgusting, not disgusting. It's inappropriate. It's disgusting. I haven't seen the video to know if it's disgusting, Envy. It had sex. It sounds inappropriate. Or in the classroom where your kids go to school and has to go to the front desk.

It's inappropriate, but I haven't seen it to know if it's disgusting. I have to watch it to know if it's disgusting. Okay, you're calling them disgusting. I don't know if it's disgusting. It's inappropriate. That is disgusting. That behavior is disgusting. In the classroom, sir.

It's inappropriate. I would have to see what she's doing to see sir it's inappropriate i would have to see what she's doing to see if it's disgusting or not you ever accidentally put your hand in something like that what are you talking about nevermind nevermind i think the kids would think it's slime yes this is left over from the science project I thought I took all this slime home. I thought I cleaned this up. It's not sticky, though. It's just sticky.

Goodness gracious. All right. Y'all play too much. All right. When we come back, who's joining us, Yee? We have Kara Saban. She's the CEO of Shea Moisture. And we also have Chantel, who founded Play Pits. It's actually a natural deodorant that she developed because her kid was stinky after going to basketball practice and everything.

And so they're going to be here talking about these community impact grants that Shea Moisture gives out, as well as many other grants that they give to the community. I always tell people, if you're a business owner, you should apply for grants. It's not like something that you have to pay back. It's not a loan. It is actually free money. So we're going to talk about that. All right, we'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got some special guests joining us this morning. We have Kara Saban from Shea Moisture,

and we have the founder of Play Pits, Chantel Powell. Good morning. Hello. Thank you so much for having me today. Now, Chantel, when I first heard about Play Pits, I wasn't sure what it was, but it's a very clever play on words. So can you tell us what Play Pits is? Thank you. So Play Pits is an all natural deodorant that literally was created because my son smelled like a man

at six, right? And so I'm a mama that refused to settle and I didn't want that smelly kid. And I feel like, you know, so often parents settle for a smelly kid but I got in the kitchen and I created something that was safe and effective for him and he loved it so much that he begged me to make more and so play pits is now a national brand um and we're all natural deodorant company that teach kids about healthy hygiene and has amazing products for the whole family I know some grown men probably that could benefit from that too. Oh, we have so many grown men that wear play pits. We have King and we have Queen adult products. And then we have the kids line Sugar, Happy and Sunshine. All right. Now, Kara, let's get to you as the CEO of Shea Moisture.

You've been doing some great work and I've done things with you guys during the pandemic, making sure that companies got grant money just because it was a difficult time. There were people who weren't going to be able to survive the pandemic without some financial assistance. There were people who were applying to try to get some of this relief from the government, but for some reason they weren't able to get it. So can you talk about some of the things, and then we'll discuss what we're doing now, but that Shea Moisture did during the pandemic to help some of those black owned businesses. Yeah, you know, Shea Moisture from the very beginning has been committed to this mission of supporting black entrepreneurship and supporting founders of color. And I joined the business in December of 2019, maybe two months before the pandemic.

And then later that year. Yes. maybe two months before the pandemic. And then later that year, yes. And then unfortunately later that year with the death, the murder of George Floyd, we saw the need in our community even greater. And so what we've been doing under the leadership of my, Simone Jordan and her team is standing up programs that help facilitate access to micro grants,

facilitate access to mentorship, educational hours, because that's the mission of our business is to support other black founders. Because we were once a black founded business and now our focus is on black impact. How can we make the greatest impact to close what we call the racial wealth gap, which is $11 trillion. So explain that. Yeah. You know, when it comes to, because you guys have this impact report that's available now, SheaMoisture.com slash impact. Thank you.

But there is an $11 trillion racial wealth gap. What exactly does that mean for people who are listening and like, okay, break that down? Yeah, quite simply, it means that the average dollar stays in our community for far less time than it does to our counterparts' communities. And if you think about generational wealth, that is through the acquisition of land, through property, through things that are handed over generation after generation after generation. And because of historical oppression and discrimination in this country, a lot of those methods for building generational wealth have been eliminated for us. And so now we are in a position where there's this huge chasm between the wealth in the black community and the wealth in the general community. And so that is what we're committed to is working with founders like Chantel to help

accelerate entrepreneurship, because we do see that as a path to building equity in our community. Chantel, what were some of the biggest obstacles for you as a business owner and getting started to get to the point where you are today? It really starts with education, right? I'm a first generation entrepreneur. I'm a first generation college educated person in my family. So when you go back to education and you've never seen, you know, a business owner in your family, you're starting from zero. Whereas you have people in other communities that it runs in their family, they have knowledge. So for me, what Shea Moisture has done was provide so many resources, webinars and lunch and learns and things that we were able to log in on and learn about different programs.

And just a lot of the things that we're learning, whereas it's been simple for other people, is just who knew, you know, cash flow and all that. I learned that because of me being a business owner. You don't just know that. And so I've been super grateful for the access to the information. Our friend Ryan Wilson from The Gathering Squad, he's in the Impact Report. And he said that he feels like a lot of times our businesses are over-mentored and under-resourced. Absolutely. You know, so can you expand on that and how Shea Moisture has decided to tackle that? Yeah, we have to give the credit to our founder, Risha Lou Dennis, who founded Sundial Brands, and I know you know Rich, Angela,

but through his vision of the commitment of what Shea Moisture would be focused on, he made the decision in 2017 to use acquisition as an exit strategy, meaning he sold the business to Unilever. And from that, one of the terms of conditions was that Unilever and he and his family would create this $100 million fund called the New Voices Fund. And by the way, just sidebar,

when that happened and everybody was up in arms and so angry, they didn't know there was a bigger play. Completely, exactly, exactly. So he had the long-term vision. It doesn't just stop with selling his business, which he called selling in, not selling out. But from that, New Voices Fund was created. Chantel reminded me that you were part of the work that New Voices was doing.

And then he went on to acquire Essence Communications and many other things. So the long play is really, what is the end game? And for us, the end game is to help build generational wealth. And so to do that, it's through standing up these programs. Yes, mentorship and education is a big part of it. But like you said, the cash is important as well. And we know that entrepreneurs of color, less than 1% of them have access to capital. And so we really need other businesses to partner with us to make that that number not so dire.

You know, Chantel, can you tell us some of the stories that you have about getting your business started and maybe some things that you learned along the way, some wins and some losses? I'll start with the loss. Right. So recently, September 13th, I got a phone call at 3 a.m. and I lost my warehouse and everything into a warehouse fire. Right. I started my business in 2018 and I've built it from my kitchen to this facility in Atlanta, Georgia. And to get a phone call at 3 a.m. that it was burning down to the ground was a loss that I was I did not know how I was going to recover from. But the loss has brought so many wins. And so, you know, me being within the Shea Moisture family, Shea Moisture has definitely stepped up

and provided opportunities for helping me with a grant and helping me, you know, and also resources, right? Connecting me with people, giving me information and helping me navigate this circumstance. But then also we just won $100,000 with a grant and it was a contest, right? And so my customers, the under army, they came out and they voted for us to win $100,000. That's huge. Yeah. So that was with the capitalists. And then we just won $50,000 with Pharrell Williams organization, Black Ambition Prize. So, you know, you're going to

have the wins and you're going to have the losses. And one thing that I'm learning in business is you have to, it's all about problem solving. It's all about how do you deal with it? How do you respond to the losses? How you learn from the wins and keep winning? So, you know, and how you turn those losses into moments where you can propel yourself to win. All right, we got more with Kara Saban and Chantel Powell. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Everybody is DJ Envyvy Angela Yee Charlamagne Tha God we are the Breakfast Club we're still kicking it with the CEO of Shea Moisture Kara Saban and the founder of Play Pit Chantel Powell Yee there is a community impact grant and I helped you guys actually launch that yeah and people can apply until November 27th so give us the detail yeah details. Yeah, no, we are so happy, Angela, that you partnered with us on that.

So we are giving out two $10,000 grants. You will help us pick those finalist applications, close the week after Thanksgiving, November 27th. And it's just another extension of the programming that we do on the business. I don't know if we have time to talk about the Next black millionaire, because that's also an active initiative that we have, but I'll pause there, but going to that grant. So that is an extension of the impact report. And when we decided to publish this impact report,

you know, a lot of businesses talk the talk, but don't walk the walk. And shame moisture historically has been a really humble business where we do the action, but don't walk the walk. And shame moisture historically has been a really humble business where we do the action, but don't really talk about it. And so we felt it was important to document the impact that we've made because we hope it inspires other businesses to partner with us on this journey. And I think it's also important to it, to what you were saying, Chantel, about educating our community on business. So there's a component that will be coming later where we're

producing a docu-series that chronicles three black founders through their journey in becoming the next black millionaire because we don't really get to see the behind the scenes, the good, the bad and the ugly. Often we only see the good side like, oh, you have a business

now, you have a business now, but we don't document the journey and everything that it took to get there. It's so stressful. I'm stressed right now. Because I think like for me and Chantel, I know like just even starting like my coffee business right now. Right. And there's a couple of things I want to say about that.

But putting my own money into something and, you know, that's a huge risk that you have to take. But I feel like you have to take it because you can't expect somebody else to take that risk if you don't take it in yourself. If you don't bet on yourself. So that's important to do. And then the other thing I want to say about coffee and then when it comes to Shea Moisture, just even thinking about where your product comes from. There's a lot of things that we have to think, is it ethically sourced? Are people getting, because

I know in a lot of places we have to think about the labor that's put into making that product. Yes. OK. And I know for shame, moisture, part of the mission is also making sure that women are compensated. Yeah. Yeah. You know, when I a couple of weeks after I started in 2019, that was actually the year of return, the 400th year anniversary of when the first enslaved people left the shores of Africa to the Americas. And so it was a life-changing experience to be on the continent in Western

Africa at that time. But we took a trip to Northern Ghana, which is where our cooperatives, our Shea Moisture, excuse me, our Shea Butter cooperatives are. And we really see those women as entrepreneurs themselves. And so everything that we do, it originates with the sourcing of the ingredient. And it's important that we're not extracting resources, but we're also putting back into the communities. I have to think about that a lot. Like when it comes to my coffee company, the way that we started it and making sure that we want to make sure that the farmers and the exporters, the importers, you know, we pay attention to who they are. We do have a black woman importer, Phyllis Johnson, who's amazing. We have a roaster, a black woman who's a roaster also.

And so we're really intentional about making sure we put our wealth back into the community, even building our space. It was all black and brown people that built our space. And a lot of the products that are inside of the store, you know, we make sure that we're trying to circulate that dollar back in as well. And what I was going to say about that, and I think that is what's important about building, black people building black, right? And when you can build an infrastructure or a business and you make sure your partners,

like you're still doing business with your people to make sure we're widening the impact. And that's something that we're very intentional about as far as our like we now since the fire, we've partnered with a black owned 3PL company, you know, so like whenever opportunities I can partner black, I will because that is how we continue to grow what our business, you know, is able to impact in our community. And then I did want to say I was a small business owner that was in the in the midst of just growing and grant opportunities were

available and I did not pause to take advantage of them in the beginning. So I want to say to any black business owner that's listening to this, take advantage of this free money. Right. Shea Moisture, like they are putting their money where their mouths are. Like out of all of the partners that I've had over the four years, you all were the first to really give me cash in my time of need. Right. And so I was very grateful for that. But now that you all are offering grants and other people take advantage of this free money. Don't don't get intimidated about application process. Take a little day. Schedule your time. It's worth it.

It's worth it. All right. Well, listen, I want to make sure we let people know where to apply for these grants. Chantel, like you said, it's so important. If I was a part of this, I'd be applying for the grant. Do it today. It literally doesn't close to the 27th. Do it today. Like just pause't close to the 27th.

Do it today. Just pause, say, okay, I'm going to take an hour and apply. The grants that I've been able to win, I'm so grateful that we paused to apply because it's so impactful. And it doesn't matter the amount. You can get a $500 grant, $50,000. But apply for this today. All right. And then when it comes to the educational aspect of it too, because

as we know, and like Chantel said earlier, there's a lot of programming that can also help you as a business owner learn things that you didn't know. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, the way the beautiful way that we like to work is, we think of it as a she-fam,

an ecosystem. And so so you know we enjoy working with partners like you angela and we want to invest in in founders like you and and so it you know once you're in the shea fam you're in the fam and so really and that is true like you know y'all have done like we've been featured on amazon with it like once you're in the family like once you get the cash, it doesn't stop there. It continues to bring in revenue for your company. So do it today. Don't hesitate.

All right. Well, Chantel Powell, how can people find PlayPits? Yeah, so you can follow us on social at PlayPits. You can go to PlayPits.com. You can also find us in 365 Targets. Okay, say that. Look, 365. Perfect number,

but it's still growing. I know, isn't it perfect? It's so easy to say. And then Target.com and Amazon.com. So we're accessible and that was my main focus. Four years ago,

I knew that busy parents, busy people want a deodorant that's accessible. And so we've worked very hard these last four years to make it accessible so we're almost everywhere and Kara let people know how they can apply

for these grants. Yes shaymoisture.com backslash backslash impact you're renovating a home I did do that I did do my kitchen. shaymoisture.com backslash impact alright well thank you all so much I right. Well, thank you so much.

I really appreciate it. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. The Breakfast Club. Body is E.J. N.V. Angelina. Charlamagne.

The guy we are. The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the room. Let's talk. He should go. She's spilling the tea. This is the rumor report with Angelina on The Breakfast Club.

Well, here's an exclusive from the Jazzman brand. Keisha Cole has a lifetime biopic on the way. They're in pre-production. Okay. And filming is slated to start at the end of this year. Keisha Cole has an interesting story. We've seen her on reality TV. We've seen her family.

We know she's been through a lot. And so I just feel like this could be a really interesting one. I'm not mad at that. I mean, the thing about Lifetime with their biopics, they either hit or they miss, right? They had the Clark sisters one. They had the Clark sisters. The Whitney one.

Toni Braxton, Unbreak My Heart. Salt-N-Pepa. Yeah, Aaliyah. Wendy Williams. Mm-hmm. Yeah. So I feel like this could be. And she's involved.

So that's a good one. All right, now let's talk about Lala and her son, Kyan, her and Carmelo's son. So apparently he got into Syracuse, and they had a big celebration. Lala posted, proudest mom on the planet. Your hard work and dedication is paying off. You are my son, my best friend, and my hero. To get a scholarship offer at 15 years old from the school your dad won a championship with is mind-blowing. Keep God first, and everything else will follow. I love it. And if you guys recall, when Chris Brickley, you know, he trains a lot of NBA players.

He also trained J. Cole when J. Cole was playing in the league. And here's what he had to say about Kyan because he's been training him as well. I was going to ask, what plays do you see that's coming up the rank that people are sleeping on that you say is going to be the next? Yo, you know who's actually getting tall like Kyan Anthony? Yeah. He's crazy. So, you know, I've seen his whole come up. Melo's kind of put me on.

And now he's, like, taller than me, 6'4", working out with Mello. Him and Mello are, like, playing ones. Like, he's going to be special. He's got his first few Division I offers. He's a freshman in high school. I think he's going to be special. Drop on the clues bombs for Kyan. Absolutely.

Lala and Mello, y'all did good. Yeah, that's a proud moment 15 years old and i think he's gotten a bunch of other offers too but i'm sure syracuse it looks like syracuse is the one he wants to rock with oh nothing make you feel old when you know these kids since they was babies and now he's six five six foot five jesus christ getting scholarship offers and they only 15 how? How old am I? Well, old enough that you ain't got no hair. And let's talk about that because Diddy is paying

a lot of money. Why would you say that? Oh, I'm segwaying into the next... Why would you say that to me? We were just talking about bullying. Goodness gracious. What a shock. Goodness gracious. How much do you pay for a haircut? If you don't have hair,

probably not much, but Diddy Wow, another stab. Here he is. It's a thousand a cut, yo. I ain't no for real because this is my barber and I share him with the world. He's one of the best, but it's like

I'm outside, outside, so it's like I need my hair done every five minutes, but if you want to need my hair, like, done every five minutes. But if you're going to pay that price, I can spare, you know what I'm saying? Me, my daily price is $5,000, you know? And I'm just telling you all the truth because it's my barber, Marcus. Drop my food bomb for Marcus, man. Yeah, it'll take less than $1,000.

Know your worth, King. Know your worth. Know your worth. Now, Marcus, I've been rocking with you than $1,000. Know your worth, King. Know your worth. Know your worth. Now, Marcus, I've been rocking with you a long time, Marcus. When I come to L.A., that's who I be using, Marcus, now. Wait, wait, why? Because Marcus just can cut. Marcus is great. You got no hair.

You can't. Shut up. Marcus can cut. You can't just use nair? Marcus is phenomenal. I'll tell y'all something. You know what? Let me mind my business.

I'll tell y'all somebody else Marcus can cut, but if I told y'all who Marcus cut, y'all be like, okay, I see it. Marcus can cut. Like I told y'all who Marcus can cut y'all be like okay I see it Marcus can cut like he's a great phenomenal bomber drop on the clues bombs for Marcus

but I ain't got a thousand dollars I ain't paying no thousand or five thousand ain't gonna happen I ain't got the thousand alright and shout out to

Dion Cole he actually has a special on Netflix today Charlene's boy here's the trailer women judge men on what they do and don't do for them before you even know who we are.

His last special was hilarious. I shall be watching that. Netflix still has great stand-ups. I watched Neil Brennan Blocks on Netflix last week.

Phenomenal stand-up special Neil got. All right, got to check that out, too. All right, and that is your rumor report. All right, my barber going to text me. See, I told you you need to pay me more. I'm not paying $1,000. By the way, Marcus' situation with Diddy is different because Marcus is always with Diddy, literally.

Like, Diddy gets his head cut, like, every 10 hours. So if you have a baldy, you can't just cut your own hair? I could, but I don't understand. But it's the experience. Like, you know, my main ball is my man Ty, sleuthing my man Ty, dropping the clues, bombs for Ty. But I like the experience. But how can they mess that up?

I'm sure you could mess a barbie up. If you don't get all the hair, because I'm sure the back part is the most difficult. That's right. That's right. That's right. All right. Well, shout out to all the barbers out there. Jose, what's going on?

Yeah, sleuth of my man Willis. There's a lot of great barbers out there, but boy, I don't get no ideas from Marcus, please. No, not at all. You'd be like, price going up. And marcus think marcus is with a billionaire if i was a personal barber to a billionaire i'd probably want a thousand dollars a customer should you change your price based off of how much yes yes you should no you should no not if you somebody's personal barber if i'm your personal barber and you got me with you everywhere yes Yes. In fact, Diddy should have Marcus on salary. That's what he should have.

That's what he probably does. You know, people be getting a thousand dollars and y'all just want to pay me. What do you pay? You said what now? What do y'all pay? What are you talking about? For a barber. That ain't nobody personal. I ain't putting nobody personal. I'll be damned if you pay

a thousand for a baldy and you right you ain't wrong you ain't wrong when you right you ain't wrong when you right I know I can understand like Envy with the Beijing and all that that take a lot more effort that's all right now you paying Picasso

now you paying a painter this man could be out tagging Subways but he gotta do Envy Chin. You know what I'm saying? Shout to Johnny. Shout to John. Shout to all the barbers in Jersey. You got to buy paint. Paint costs. All right, let's get to the mix. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
