So I had a great, great, great party. Thank you for y'all coming up. These men was not planned. It was definitely exceptional segregation. All the white people at the bar like, yeah, oh, my God. All the guys watching basketball. Well, yeah, oh my God. All the guys watching basketball. Well, that's partly my fault.

Yeah, it's all your fault. I called Sim and I was like, Sim, I need a TV. She was like, there's no TV at this spot. I said, get me a TV, please. Yeah, y'all took my TV

out of my green room. Yeah, we took the TV out of your green room. We connected it to the laptop so we could watch the game and we was all watching. Yeah, we had a good time, though. No, it was amazing.

It was good. But when it came time for me to grab you guys for pictures, I was like, no, even your dad to be your friends. First of all, this is my party. This is not nobody's living room. They started laughing. I did have fun. It was good.

It was a good time. I was telling our program director, it was just fun. It was just a great vibe. The music was good. Everybody was drinking. The music was good. Everybody was drinking. Well, you wasn't drinking, but everybody was drinking. The food was good. It was just a good vibe, good atmosphere.

It was. And welcome to The Breakfast Club New York. Thank you so much. Three months later. Three months later. Four months later. Well, today on the show, SWV and Escape will be joining us. They have a tour called the Queens of R&B Tour.

And we're going to be kicking it with them in a little bit. And again, congratulations to the New York Knicks. Well, I said congratulations like they won the championship. But they won last night. I know. Y'all was hype. Yeah, we was hype as hell. We'll give you the details when we come back with front page news.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne will be here in a little bit. And let's get in some front page news. Last night, the Knicks won 121 91 they beat the paces they lead the series 3 2 and the nuggets beat the timberwolves 112 97 now uh donald trump he was back in court yesterday of course he only

has wednesday off and of course the weekends and they were still going back and forth with michael cohen his ex-attorney trump's former fixer was back on the stand and faced a brutal cross-examination from Trump attorney Todd Blanche. You called President Trump a Cheetos-dusted cartoon villain, Blanche asked Cohen. Yes, he replied. Do you want President Trump to get convicted in this case? Sure. As Trump's attorney went after Cohen, Trump appeared to fall asleep. His eyes closed for quite a while, his chin resting on his chest. And we're learning today that Stormy Daniels wore a bulletproof vest when she testified last week. She was concerned about

the security coming into New York. She wore a bulletproof vest every day. Yes. Until until she got to the courthouse. I can tell you that before she came on Sunday, I mean, she cried herself to sleep. Well, I do see why she would wear a bulletproof vest. Some of those Trump is a crazy. We see what happened January 6th. So I don't blame her. She wants to be she wants to get in and out. She wore a vest and got in.

And as far as Michael Cohen, it's really strange because he was so infatuated with Trump. He talked about reading Trump's book numerous times and really wanted to work with Trump. And then he got what he wanted and things didn't work out. And now he's like, well, should Trump go to jail? Yeah. But you were just so infatuated with him. You wanted to work with him so bad. You knew what he was about.

And now that. And Trump falling asleep. He's old. Crazy. Yeah. That sounds like america though get what you want oh yeah you know and then you're just dust of course now also they're putting out a warning uh for pride day and pride week the um fbi director saying be very careful uh they might

look to exploit the lIA plus related events. There was already a heightened risk of violence in the United States before October 7th. Since then, we've seen a rogues gallery of foreign terrorist organizations call for attacks against Americans and our allies. And given those calls for action, our most immediate concern has been that individuals or small groups will draw some kind of twisted inspiration from the events in the Middle East to carry out attacks here at home. But now, increasingly concerning, is the potential for a coordinated attack here yeah so of course june is pride month and they're saying that any gatherings uh just be extra very careful they're

on a high alert because they don't know what's happening they're seeing their threats come online and they're going to make sure that they watch every threat to make sure that the american citizens are safe jesus okay i, yesterday, I told you guys, my daughter has the rolling loud of graduations. Monday was her own school's graduation. They broke down into schools, business school, this school, music school. So Monday was that.

Yesterday, they had like a fair in the city. They shut down like 10 blocks and they had all the kids out there. And during that whole time, I was nervous. I'm like, if a car breaks through this barricade and you run over at least 100, 200 students and their parents. And I'm like, I shouldn't have to think like that.

I should be enjoying the fact that my daughter went to school for four years and she graduated. But I was more fearful of what happened if somebody comes and starts shooting this place up or somebody has a bomb or somebody drives through it. And that's not the way to think, but that's also why I probably just don't go out as much. Yeah, but that's how we got to think.

We see that. That's just how things go sometimes, like now, more often than not in the world. Yeah, very scary. And that is front page news. Now, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. 800-585-1051 If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open.

800-585-1051 Let us know how your night was, what your day is, how you're feeling. If you're feeling blessed, you got something to get off your chest, call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is your time to get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, what's up? This is Antoine from Cincinnati. Antoine from Cincinnati. What up? Get it off your chest. What up, though?

First of all, I just want to say I'm blessed. I woke up this morning. I ain't dead or in jail, so I can't complain. That's right. What I wanted to get off my chest was what Envy was saying, man, about he couldn't enjoy his daughter's graduation because of the threat of, you know, somebody doing something crazy. And unfortunately, that's the world we live in.

I work at a construction company, and last week we just had active shooter trainer. And they talking about how to fight. And I'm like, this is crazy. I'm at work, and I got to be worried about this type of stuff while I'm at work. And unfortunately, man, that's the world we live in. So you just got to really stay prayed up, man. Keep your head on the swivel, man.

And that's a damn shame. That's all we can do. I don't like being out. I don't like being around a large crowd. Bro, it was a carnival yesterday. They closed off like 10 blocks in the city. And it was just nothing but students and parents. I'm sitting there the whole time like somebody could drive right through this barricade.

Somebody could come in with a pistol and start shooting. That's all I'm doing. I'm looking at everybody weird, everybody with a book bag. I'm watching the students and the kids and they having a good time. I just couldn't get into it because I was nervous. That's America. We live

in the United States of anxiety. Exactly. Absolutely, man. Y'all be safe, man. Stay prayed up, man. Yes, sir. Hello, who's this? It's Leon.

What's good? What's good, Breakfast Club? Leon, what's up? What's up, Leon? Get it off your chest. Yeah, man. I feel like the Timberwolves blew this series. DJ Envy, Charlamagne, Jax Hilarious, good morning to all of y'all. Peace and blessings. But yeah, man, I feel like the Timberwolves blew this series. DJ Envy, Charlamagne, Jess Hilarious, good morning to all of y'all.

Peace and blessings. But yeah, man, I felt like the Timberwolves blew this series. Losing three in a row, that's not a good look. Yeah, but you're playing against the defending champion, Denver Nuggets, and I mean, the Wolves probably just ain't ready yet. That's all. And the Nuggets, I mean, they do have the best player in

basketball, you know. They're the defending champions. And the defending champions. I mean, it is what it is. Timber was probably just saying ready yet. It ain't over yet, though. It ain't over yet. Yes, it is. It ain't over yet, but in the game of basketball,

when you lose three in a row, it's a wrap. Yeah, it's over, brother. Especially against the champions. Especially against the champions. Yeah, it's over. Well, that's your team. I'm sorry for you, brother. It's all good, man. Y'all have a blessed day.

Me too. Hello, who's this? Good morning. My name is Courtney. I'm calling from Texas. Hey, Courtney. It's Courtney. What's up, Courtney?

Get it off your chest. So I called last week because it was Teacher Appreciation Week and I passed my certification test. But it's been on my mind to call back and say that

we have to vote out in Texas. We have to vote out Greg Abbott. He's our governor. He's sitting on billions of dollars or holding billions of dollars to send out to the Texas education system, to different school districts and stuff because he wants these vouchers, $8,000

education vouchers because he wants us to go to a private school system. But it's causing a lot of layoffs here in Texas, unfortunately. And it's super sad because all of these students are putting 50 kids per classroom to one teacher. Or teachers are being laid off, or teachers are quitting, or support staff, more importantly, is being laid off because he won't send out the funding we need because he wants us to vote for these vouchers. Yeah, you know what? I saw that.

I saw where he cut a bunch of public school funding, but what was so interesting about it, they were saying that Texas has a state surplus of $18 billion, so they got the resources to better fund the public schools, and what pisses me off about that, that's taxpayer money. And it's affecting the students so bad. It really is. is to better fund the public schools. And what pisses me off about that, that's taxpayer money. And they won't. And it's affecting the students so bad. It really is.

My goddaughter, her first two years of middle school, sixth or seventh grade, did not have a consistent math teacher. And we thought she just was struggling in math. In actuality, she just didn't have a teacher. And so eighth grade, she finally got a consistent math teacher,

and she's doing great. And it's sad. Yeah, I'm telling you, man, this is why paying taxes, you know, she finally got a consistent math teacher, and she's doing great. And it's sad. Yeah, I'm telling you, man, this is why paying taxes, you know, we do it, but it's such a stressful process because we don't even be knowing where our money going. And then when we can look at something like this and say, yo, y'all are cutting the budgets for public schools, but then the state has a surplus of $18 billion, you have the resources to better fund the public schools,

and you're still not using that money for it? So where the hell is the money going? I wanted to say to you teachers listening in Texas, I know they hate joining the union because they take the money out every month from your paycheck, but it's really important to join the teachers union. It really is.

At this point, I was telling my mom, because she's the teacher, and the superintendent came around and told that we either have to raise the property taxes or make layoffs next school year. It's like, it's so close. Next school year is two months away. So, it's important to join a union.

Y'all join a teacher's union because something has to be done. It's really sad. Thank you for calling, Queenie. Thank you, Mom. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. You know what I'm pissed off about? That y'all be having parties on random Tuesday nights. Well, we already talked about it.

Like people ain't born in the 1900s. What the hell we out that time of night for? For what? Ain't nothing open past 11 o'clock on Tuesdays except for legs and Waffle House. So Waffle House in New York? No. So Waffle House in New York? We're nationally syndicated

We in a hundred plus markets Across the country I'm asking for me Okay I'm not syndicated I'm here I need a lot of people We got Jess with the mess coming up

Yes Cardi ain't giving us No album this year No? No I'm going to tell you what she said Alright we'll get into that next It's The Breakfast Club

Good morning The Breakfast Club Good morning everybody It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Yo, I have heartburn. Excuse me, I'm sorry. I have heartburn. Why? Because you're pregnant. I don't know. I've never had heartburn in my life, yo. You're pregnant. Let me ask you a stupid question.

You're pregnant. What the hell is heartburn? What does it feel like? I've never had heartburn. I don't know what it feels like. Only white people have no idea. What is heartburn? Heartburn is when your heartburn. Biracial is when your heartburn. I don't know what it feels like. Only white people have no idea. Yeah, light-skinned people don't get heartburn, huh? What? What is heartburn? Biracial's don't get heartburn. Heartburn's when your heartburn. Biracial's don't get heartburn. It's like acid reflux.

You ever heard of acid reflux? Yes. Yes. Stuff that people take Tums for, but I don't know if I can even have Tums because I'm pregnant. Dominicans don't get heartburn. Brad, you ever had heartburn? How? A heart is a heart.

Never had heartburn? I've never had heartburn. You did? You did? For real? I've never had heartburn. Well, Jess, hilarious. I You did, for real? I've never had a heartburn. Well, Jess, hilarious, I just want you to know

that heartburn is very common during pregnancy. Thank you, black man. Awesome. I just want to tell you that. I have four daughters. I have a wife. Yeah.

Okay. I've just never had it. Sorry. Yes, you have. I have not. You've definitely had a heartburn before. You just ain't know it was heartburn. You probably thought

you was having a heart attack. Maybe. All right, well, let's get to Jess with a mess. News is real, weapons. Just for lines, just well, let's get to Jess with a mess. News is real. Weapons, lines, Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lying.

She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. She's a coach of shit. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something

that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it on. Cardi B pushes her album release again. So Cardi's fans, they are confused and they're upset about it. They've been waiting for another year for another album to come, which she teased when she was up here. We asked her about it. What do you think will come out first? Your second album?

My second album is going to come out. I have to. I have to. I have to. When is the question when people want? This year? Next year. Next year.

Early next year. Just name the album Lauryn Hill when it comes out. I know, yo. Or Anita. I like that. I like that. But she responded to that fan tweeting, that's not happening. One of her fans tweeted and told her that her engagement with her fans isn't appreciated

and that she should take a break from social media. So Cardi said, exactly. And I tell myself this all the time. And I hate that I fall back and start interacting again and it bites me in the ass. Anyway, no album this year. I don't care. I'm relaxing this year. I'm dropping these features.

Already, I committed to traveling and enjoying my summer. She eventually deleted that tweet, but shortly after that, she shared another tweet celebrating having four songs. Hit the billion mark on Spotify and added that she can't wait for us to see what she got next. Dropping the Clues Bonds for Bardi for hitting a billion streams. And also, I've already said it a million times,

Cardi don't have to put out a second album if she don't want to. Put out a single here and there. I think what Cardi really should

be doing is TV and film. Oh, no, for sure. Yeah. We don't need a second Cardi B album.

Yeah. Or modeling. I think she wants to do one, and I think she wants to go back on the road and go back on tour and do

some new music. Cardi can go on tour right now with her catalog alone, that one album. And then Cardi can go on tour right now with her catalog alone. That one album. And then Cardi did with her album what I feel all artists should do. Milk it.

Like, why do we live in this era where you put an album out and then, you know, two months from now it's gone? Do what SZA do. Do what Cardi B do. Do what Kendrick Lamar do. Milk your project, man. Well, academics accused of rape. Another man accused of rape another man accused accused of rape um yesterday a lawsuit was filed by a woman named zaya abashi she claimed that um academics first of all she claimed that they dated um and then they met in 2021 and um she allegedly went to x house one night and was

greeted by two men that she didn't even expect to be there. The document stated that two men spiked her drink. It's like always the same story. The two men spiked her drink and continued to serve her alcohol until they raped her on academics' pool deck. Then she allegedly woke up at 4 a.m. to academics pulling her hair and prying open her legs and brutally raping her. She accused him of penetrating her anally and vaginally. She said when she woke up the next morning, academics, she asked him what happened. And he showed her a garbage can with two condoms in it and showed her surveillance footage from the pool deck.

The lawsuit said as she watched the video, she looked like she was just lying there lifeless, which did not sit right with her. She claimed academics later text her and say, get tested. She eventually called her lawyer or advised her to get a rape kit done. And she claims that there were traces of academic sperm found and the police have pictures of her bruises. There is allegedly a recorded phone call where academics speaks on having sex with her. She said that he chose to keep quiet. I mean, that she she chose to keep quiet and not press charges until allegations came up last year. She claims academics denied the assault and accused her of voluntarily sleeping with both his friends without any of his

involvement and um academics actually addressed it my only comment should really be whatever this is will be handled in court just know that according to the law and according to the police and according to all sanctioning governing authorities academics is a innocent man who has not ever been charged with anything of the sort that has to do with any deviancy or anything like that has never been charged will never be charged that's a fact but this is a civil situation brewing this is a shakedown this is is a money tree situation. I mean, listen, I know people don't like DJ Akademiks

for a variety of reasons, but just because you don't like him doesn't mean he's guilty or rape. And this is a civil case. Like he said, like she's being represented. And you said something too, Jess. You said it seems like

all of these stories sound the same. The story, the lead up, the build up, everything. And it does seem like that sometimes. But one of the reasons is because a lot of these people have the same lawyer.

The same lawyer. Tyrone Blackburn. Yup. Yeah, but I know a lot of people don't like academics, but the same energy he gives people when allegations come out and he goes in on them,

whether they're found guilty or not guilty, it's going to be the same energy that people give him back. Of course. Of course. So we'll just watch this unfold. But that was Jess for the mess. All right.

Thank you, Jess. Now, when we come back, we got front page news. Eric Adams has some jobs for migrants. He suggests some jobs that migrants can do here for the summer. Oh, my God. This was hilarious.

I mean, listen, I know it's a serious situation, but some of this stuff you got to laugh at, OK? Why is it hilarious? Wait till you hear it. I chuckled. I saw this headline yesterday and I chuckled.

He got some suggestions. I mean, heartily chuckled. We'll get into it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking out The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are The Breakfast Club. Now let's get in some front. 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. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia.

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

What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! 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 app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hey, guys. I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show. Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun.

Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16, 2017, was murdered. There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks. Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state. And she paid the ultimate price.

Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey there, I'm Dr. Maya Shankar, a cognitive scientist who studies human behavior. On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives. It was like a slow nightmare. You know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night I would dream that my face was quote-unquote normal or back to the way it was. And I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how

we can be more resilient in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like this social R&D engine of our culture, that something that looks like risky and idiotic to us is maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you social failure. Listen to A Slight Change of Plans on the iHeartRadio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Page News. Now, last night in NBA, the Knicks beat the Pacers 121-91. They lead the series 3-2. The Nuggets beat the Timberwolves, 1-12, 97. It was Kaitlyn Clark's debut last night as well. They lost. I think she dropped like 20 points last night.

So, packed house. She'll be all right, man. It's her first game. And, by the way, I see a lot of people, they'll root for the WNBA, right? And they'll root for Angel Reese as they should. But then they'll try to, try to discredit Kaitlyn Clark, you should be hoping Kaitlyn Clark has massive success. Because if Kaitlyn Clark has massive success,

then the WNBA will have massive success. So if you want those women to ever really get paid the money that they deserve, you should hope Kaitlyn Clark has a stellar WNBA career. That's right. Them asses whooping your ass. It was success, right? They was beating his ass asses whooping your ass. It was successful. It was beating his ass up. It was the lisp.

It was the tiredness. The lisp and the fatigue beat me up just now. Because y'all want to be out last night for no damn reason. On a big Tuesday. But it seems it is good to see them women on charter jets and not have to fly and get to their games. It does seem good to be on their own. It does. I got to see the jets though though because some of them just look like the spirit planes that they don't want to use that's what it'd be look i gotta look again and they put like a little

school desk in it it's like the spirit plane with a school desk in the middle well i gotta look i gotta make sure i don't know i saw one of them playing they look a little suspect oh my goodness well eric adams you know we have a migrant problem here in New York City, and there's migrant problems everywhere. Well, Eric Adams suggests some jobs that maybe the migrants can do. How do we have a large body of people that are in our city and country that are excellent swimmers, and at the same time, we need lifeguards? And the only obstacle is that we won't give them the right to work to become a lifeguard.

That just doesn't make sense. But if we had a plan that say, you have a shortage of full service workers, and those who fit the criteria, we're going to expedite you. If you have the experience that you are a nurse which we have a nurse to shortage and We would accept that expedite you and that's the same with lifeguards So we have all these eligible people waiting to work with the skills We need to fill the jobs, but we unable to allow them to work because bureaucracy is in the way Eric Adams is right damn it. What drop one of glue both Eric Adams don't act like Eric Adams Not right if these people can really

swim and they need work, let them be lifeguards. What's the issue? Is being a lifeguard not an honorable job? Do we not need lifeguards? As he said, if you can cook, go in the kitchen and be a cook. If you know how to nurse, go be a nurse. If you can

swim, teach them how to be a lifeguard. What is the problem here? I know the headline looks ridiculous, and I chuckled when I saw it yesterday, but when I listen to what the man is saying, is the man wrong? He's not wrong. He's not wrong. Come on, man. He's just in that walking SNL sketch, but he's not wrong.

Right. I mean, the city does have a lifeguard shortage right now, and we do need lifeguards. It's about to get hot, and, you know, the beaches, the lakes, and all that bodies of water are open. I never thought about it. I don't, you know, I never thought, whoa, if there's a lifeguard shortage and we got people that can swim, teach them how to be lifeguards. I have no problem with that. Caption look crazy, though. It's a funny headline.

The man is a walking SNL sketch. Okay, he's comedy gold, but he's right. The caption is, Eric Adams, just migrants could be lifeguards. Because, I mean, they're excellent swimmers. Y'all just don't care about lifeguards. Oh, my God. Migrants are excellent swimmers. Yes.

Nice. And if they are, they are. If they got the natural skill set to swim, why can't they be lifeguards? Yeah. Why can't they be lifeguards? Yeah. All right. Well, lastly, speaking of migrants, out in Florida, migrants were hurt in a bus crash. A pickup truck actually crashed into a bus carrying migrant farm workers, and 38 were hurt. Tonight, the driver of this pickup truck arrested and charged with manslaughter after this mass casualty bus crash on a Central Florida highway that killed at least eight people. Tonight, the driver of this pickup truck arrested and charged with manslaughter

after this mass casualty bus crash on a Central Florida highway that killed at least eight people. At this point, we are conducting a massive traffic homicide investigation. We have a full team and then some here on the scene. This morning, a retired school bus carrying 53 migrant farm workers traveling on State Road 40 in Marion County. A 2001 Ford pickup coming from the opposite direction on the two-lane highway, then moving towards the center lane, sideswiping the bus. I bet you all those migrant farm workers wish they was lifeguards. Won't get hit by a truck in a pool or on the beach. Yeah.

Very sad, though. Very, very sad. Eight killed, 38 injured. And again, the driver of the pickup truck was arrested, and one of the counts was driving under the influence. Damn. it and uh one of the counts was driving under the influence damn i wonder if those uh i wonder if those migrant families are eligible for the suit like are they able to sue uh the truck driver i'm sure they can like i wonder because that's usually what happens in situations like that

right yeah they sue the family get some money like i wonder if the family will be able to sue don't sue the company insurance company or if he if he was working for somebody right? Yeah. They sued, the family gets some money. Like, I wonder if the family will be able to sue. Don't sue the company. Yeah. Insurance company or if he was working for somebody or whatever it may be. I wonder.

Very sad. All right. Well, that is front page news. All right. Now, when we come back, SWV and Escape

are joining us. They're doing a tour, the Queens of R&B tour put on partly by Mona Scott Young and we're going to be talking to SWV and Escape. And we're going to get on a little mini mix. If you want to hear some SWV, some Escape music this morning, hit me up right now.

Let me know what joints you want to play, what you want to hear, and I'll try to get them on for you. All right? It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy, we are The Breakfast Club. We got some special guests joining us today.

We have SWV and Escape. Welcome! What's happening? How y'all feeling? Feeling good. This is a lot to move around. It's expensive to move around. We made it. It's a lot of y'all.

We made it. How's it working with everybody now? Is it difficult getting everybody on the road together, getting everybody on time? Because at first they said y'all were going to be here a certain time. They were like, somebody's going to be just a little late, but then y'all all came together. How is that?

Why are y'all looking around when I said late? I was ready. Who was the latest? Who's the latest? I was ready. I heard it would be Lili, but I don't know I'm going to be much I do have a problem being but I'm never late when I get this ain't ready ain't nobody done

so we need to one you gotta an hour early just to get her on time? Yeah, okay. That still doesn't work. I did. Today? Yeah. So how did the tour come together? Mona got you.

Mona got you. Come on up to the mic, Mona. She was like, oh, I'm gonna get them together. Obviously, a lot of people know after we did the reality show together, it kind of like put things on ice for a while. And then Mona, you know, she just kept coming back with ideas. And she got us all on the same page. And I'm glad she did because, you know, we all was friends for a while.

So it was crazy that we allowed the show to like mess things up or whatever. You know what I mean? And this is is i feel like it's a perfect time to come back um we also got our girls 702 total so it's gonna be a really fun tour like we're gonna have a good time what about the reality show broke y'all up exactly we were just you know just having our own we our group we had our own inner turmoil you know, just having our own. We had our own inner turmoil. You know what I mean? And then, you know, we had bumped heads about stupid stuff.

You know what I mean? Stupid girls. And then it don't help when you get the people involved. You know, just media. Yeah, media. People putting their opinions and everything. How is it with your families and your life so into the press? Because anything that you do, family does, kids do, it's in the press all the press because anything that you do family does kids do it's in the press all the time does that get annoying yes yeah of course everybody's accountable

like we have to be accountable for every little thing that we do because we're not the only ones that feel it yeah so you almost have to live your life for other people you know it's it's the most uncomfortable feeling ever but but, I mean, you gotta do the best you can and just sign an NDA. My girl. My girl. My girl.

She's crazy. Does it make it difficult to be a parent? You got a daughter that's graduating this week. Yeah. Does it make it difficult that,

because everything that she does is online. I remember, I took them all out one night with my daughter and I was so nervous because I felt like a chaperone. Now you're looking but like oh they're drinking. I hope nobody sees them drinking.

People that don't know both of our daughters go to NYU. And they're all the 21s. But they all went out for a birthday and I was the chaperone so I had to get security. I had to make sure and I didn't like it. it was like it was too much stress on me because at the end of the day i'm like what happened if candy calls me the next morning was like envy why did my daughter get back at this time like it's a lot but it's always in the public so how do you deal with that

um i mean we're used to it at this point we was i mean i was on housewife for 14 seasons so riley grew up in it and she's about to do something else, you know. So it's just kind of like, I just told her, you know, whatever you do, just say, hey, I had fun doing it. And if I messed up, I messed up. I'm going to have to get it right the next time. Yes. After the reality show, you know, y'all had y'all little issues. What was that first conversation like?

Because nowadays it seems like nobody knows good conflict resolution skills. Yeah. What conversations did y'all have that got y'all back on the same page? I thought it was really cool because when Mona got us all back together, we hadn't spoken to each other. But what I thought was really cool was that we put the managers out, we put everybody out, and it was just us six. And it's easier that way. We worked it out, we we talked we let each other know how we felt about certain things and we're here

who's the most difficult who's the I call it the Virgo of the group that's like me I want Coco to answer this Who's the most difficult, Coco? The most difficult? I could be me. I'm difficult. I just, you know, I stand on what I want and what I believe in, and I'm going to go for it. I don't want nobody to tell me what to do. She's going to say no 20 times before yes. And it's just a yes. It ain't even a hard yes.

It's a soft yes. It's a soft yes. She's going gonna know you I don't know just going with the flow I don't know that she tells me oh this is the one

saying you catch more bees with honey I just like I don't know I'm trying but you know I'm not there yet

but in this business all y'all gotta be stern because you're black you're women people try to get over on you so you gotta have those boundaries for sure

for sure yes and we each one of us we think our group over on you so you gotta have those boundaries for sure for sure yes and we each one of us we think our group is the best so you're gonna bump heads sometimes

you're gonna bump heads but you know we come to a resolution and we make it work we did have a conversation one day on air about who closes the show we did

remember I remember yeah that was part of the drama when we had during the season and i was like how do you figure out because i guess in certain markets a certain group would close or maybe not so how did y'all figure that out we have 30 shows yeah we just just decided to split it

down the middle you know 30 shows you close 15 we close 15 we just do it like that but to be clear our show is intertwined right yeah so for people it's not going to be one of those concerts where you know one act goes do their whole show and then the next act goes it's like we're doing kind of like versus but a live fun or a better version where we go back and forth doing our you know our hits so um yeah it's gonna work out yeah the last song is gonna change you know for 15 you know versus 15 or whatever but it's still the work out. Yeah, the last song is going to change, you know, for 15, you know, versus 15 or whatever, but it's still

the whole show is going to be like, you're going to feel like you're going back down memory lane and being able to sing every hit of ours that you've ever felt,

you know what I mean? And it's not going to ever, like, make you to a point where you want to sit down because you're going to be like, oh, this is my joint and then they're going to go and it's, oh, that's my joint

and it's going to keep going back and forth. Is this why you took a break from Real Housewives of atlanta candy no i wasn't the only reason i have a whole bunch of different things that i'm doing um i'm producing whiz on broadway i got another show that i'm about to announce that i'm producing i'm filming on a tv show i can't even announce yet so there's a lot of other things that i really wanted to do that um unfortunately you know i don't know if y'all watched last season i was all they was always mad because i was working on something else and that wasn't gonna change

because i got a lot of dreams i'm trying to make happen it's extra busy yeah but i still got love for them i'm still gonna be supporting them you know all right we got more with swv and escape when we come back matter of fact let's get into an escape mini mix it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj envy j just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we're still kicking it with escape and swv charlamagne so why is this so important to do this it was very important for my group and you know us together to do this i mean i personally want to keep the legacy of our groups going you know what i mean i feel like it's crazy to be able to say that back in the 90s we had hits and now in 2024 we're still able to headline tours and go across the country like as women you know what i mean um i think that's very important i don't know about

y'all but as women you know i'm all about you know we got to make moves and big moves and show people like yeah like this is where it's at. You know what I mean? What about you, Tani? Why is it important for you? I mean, because it's something that I really love doing. And I mean, it's just a different feeling from everything else that we do. And, you know, our music is still living

and doing its thing. So it's just a great thing to be able to go out there and sell arenas and do these shows so I mean I feel like I mean I feel like why not you know what I'm saying the money and you know for a long time we wasn't doing any shows

and so many ex in our era was you know getting that money and I was just like going to my girl like why ain't we getting the money like what are we doing we can't even we can't get along like we're missing out so we finally you know thankful to Jermaine and all them they was trying to do like a movie a movie on us that we didn't have nothing to do with so that's really what brought us back together was trying to figure that out like who the hell doing a movie on us and we ain't got nothing to do with it yeah so that's how we got

back to where we are why was it important for y'all swv this is something that i've been wanting to do since since how long yeah it's a long time i think we got back together in 20 2005 and i just always wanted to put a girl group tour back together the 90s was just beautiful with so many varieties of girl groups doing their things successfully. I missed that vibe. And I wanted to do it again. It's just been so hard trying to get everybody together. But finally, this situation came along and I'm like all for it.

I thought it was dope because I think we left a lot of things open, you know, since the show. And another thing, I don't think men really give us the support I think we deserve. Yeah. And another thing, I don't think men really give us the support I think we deserve. So for us, for the world to see us come together as women and support each other like this, I think is a big deal for me. Because y'all support each other, y'all don't support us. Haters, haters. But I've also seen the shift in R&B music.

Because I would say maybe about four or five years ago, it started shifting where R&B music, it was R&B music parties, R&B started shifting where R&B music, it was R&B music parties, R&B music concerts, R&B music things. And I'm sure you guys seen that shift because at one time it felt like, I don't want to say it was dead, but people didn't respect the 90s groups like they should have in the 2000s.

But I seen that shift where it's like, you're seeing concerts, you're seeing shows. I mean, think about it. A Vegas show, Lovers and Friends, when they had 30,000, 40,000 people, you would never see that before. That was always a good thing. Yeah. And I got and i gotta ask i gotta give you a lot of props wow you took dog skin

shut up don't even going down that road. Why'd you say dark skin? No, no, no, no, no. Wait, wait, wait. Why did you say dark skin? Wait, did you change your complexion? Yes. Well, he said I have a vintage vagina. I just gave him his coloration. Rightfully so, Charlamagne.

What happened with that? You said I have vintage vagina. I don't discoloration. Rightfully so, Solomon. What happened? What did I say now? You said I have vintage vagina. I don't know what y'all talking about. Vintage vagina. We got it on film. None of those things happen. We got it on film. AI.

AI. I just said AI before AI. She said I just said AI before AI. On button. Wait, time out. Is vintage vagina a good thing or bad? To me, it's good. I would say it's good. She's saying like some nice experience. Did you give him the vintage vagina a good thing or bad? To me, it's good. I would say it's good.

Did you give him the vintage vagina? No. Absolutely not. Oh, my God. No. No. No. No.

No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No.

No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No.

Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him.

Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him.

Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Look at him. Do y'all think this generation even knows what real R&B is? Oh, absolutely. There are a ton of youngsters, millennials, Gen Zs that know about SWV and Xscape because their parents are teaching them about that.

We did a show last year with Glorilla and a couple of other young rappers. We were like, why are we here? But those kids were out there singing those songs like they were there when we recorded them and they're holding their moms up on facetime but music is not the same r&b doesn't seem like it's the same even even my daughter now of course she listens to scissor and she listens to summer walker but when these records come on in the house she knows every word word for word like these are her artists she looks at you you guys at her artists like we do which is it's different timeless it's not you don't get the same behavior when you when you immerse these kids in this kind of music they love it that you have tiktok you have all these uh youtube my son used to sit there and and uh look

up different artists on youtube and he would like think it was so cool and I'm like that's old school music he goes no it isn't bruh it is I have to tell my grandbaby no they didn't make that song the song came from this so you know you gotta teach your kids even though she's my child she goes she knows all of escape songs

all the songs that we don't sing work me slowly she sing I'm like girl you cannot sing these songs. She's singing every... And I know this song. And she can sing. That's crazy that you said eight years old. I feel like we just seen her

be born. She's doing interviews. She knows what she want to do. But y'all gotta realize, like, a lot of our songs and other R&B songs, they end up trending and everything on social media. People be making their own video clips. 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 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's 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 create 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 warheads. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help!

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.

On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives.

It was like a slow nightmare, you know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night I would dream that my face was quote unquote normal or back to the way it was. And I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient

in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture, that they're something that looks like risky and idiotic to us. It's maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you social failure.

They just started singing it and blow it up all over again. Is there any songs y'all tired of performing but you got to? Because it's a big hit or the fans want it? It's tonight for me.

Every last song. You don't like tonight, Tiny? I do, but sometimes when we have a show we need to cut the songs out. I'll be ready to cut tonight. They never want to cut tonight. honey? No, I mean, I do, but, you know, like, sometimes when we have a show, we're like, we need to cut the songs out. I'll be ready to cut tonight. They never want to cut tonight. Why?

She don't want to have the pressure of hitting the high note at the end. Oh. You know, I can do without it, but it's okay. We're not cutting tonight.

What about y'all? Anything that y'all tired of doing? I'm performing every last song. Every time we sing those songs, I feel blessed. I'm going to sing them every time

from the bottom of my heart. Single girl. We get tired of right here. Yeah. Right here. Why? Why? The dance moves?

You still got to do the choreography? It's just slow. You still got to do the choreography? That's why? No, it's not the choreography. It makes you sleepy. To me, it's more of a radio song. It's not a performance song.

No. I feel that. I feel like that about a song that i feel like so good it's more like one song oh right here one of them one we got more with swv and escape when we come back now let's get into a swv mini mix it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj envy jess hilarious charlamagne the guy We got more with SWV and Escape when we come back. Now, let's get into a SWV mini-mix. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.

No. No. No. Hard and dry. No. Wait a minute. Damn. Jesus Christ man how was it on Survivor? you want to redirect that cut?

how was it on Survivor? it was crazy look Survivor is the only reality television show that's the only one there are no storylines there's nothing you're out there with absolutely nothing and you have to literally survive so will i do it again absolutely not they've been trying to get me to come back that's what we all need to do something like survivor we need to do a show where we have to depend on each other. She not gonna wipe her butt with no leave. We have a whole

gourmet meal prepared. Don't play. Does reality TV help or hurt? It can do either one. It depends on what you do with it, really. I mean, I definitely feel like, you know, I've had moments where I hated it, obviously, but

I feel like I really built a big fan base through it oh yeah you know I think that's what everything though mmm like even when y'all come to work every day is you got to deal with the political and you're gonna do with something no matter what you do you're gonna deal with something no matter what you do. You're going to deal with something. It's just how you resolve. What's the craziest movie y'all heard about yourselves? If there was one. I heard I used to be a prostitute. Damn.

What? Somebody did a background check on us. When I saw it, it was like people saying, Taj, yeah, she's doing much better now because she used to be on the street. I'm like, never. I never heard that one. Not until I saw that little background check thingy. But no, I've never been a prostitute. Thank you very much.

Well, y'all know what mine is. I got women locked up in the basement. I'm beating them up. Cause you know what I'm saying? It's going down. How you able to navigate through that though, Tiny? Like when you hear those stories about yourself. You know, they piss me off more so than anything

but you know just cause I be wanting to say so much and I have to you know everybody always tell me no I can't say anything. My lawyers and tip and that be on my head so I just had to be quiet. That's the part that really bothers me the most. It's just not being able to say. That's what they want you to say.

And nobody gonna believe you anyway cause nobody cares about the truth or the lies. No one. Yeah, so, and, you know, and I have to, my husband's telling me all the time, like, it don't matter. You know, nobody, you know,

either they gonna believe you or deny, and most people, they're split. So you can't get everybody. So just forget about it. And has that ever been, like, where it affected your kids in school? Like, anything like that? Because I think about it on that level, too i got kids successful kids and like they still have

their life like you know what i mean where they gotta yeah i i felt like maybe so but they don't really talk about it they don't really say oh i've had a bad day because of this and that like major is one of the main kids that's in school right now and he's so chill. Like he don't never just be like you know, I just had the worst day today. If he does have a bad day he probably, he don't really have bad days because he don't care about nothing.

You know what I'm saying? He don't really care about anything. Does he get less of a f*** than young King? Well King King is, and King really, he's got tough skin. Like he he and i'm glad he got tough skin because you know he get he get the most flack out of everybody but he's got really tough skin so he doesn't he could care less what they say he'd be like yeah tell him keep talking about me i don't care you know i'm saying he don't mind so i'm okay with that you know i'm saying so all our kids are pretty much they know us and they pretty much you know they they they know they don't really know what I'm saying?

Yeah, she sent a letter.

have it in February when it was cold. When it actually came. Now we're sitting here tired. What Shaniqua Golden said yesterday, having fun is exhausting. It is.

Yes, it is. Oh no, she wasn't lying. Yeah, she is not lying. Well, let's get to Jess with the mess. News is real, but it's not real. I ain't Jessica Robin Moore.

Jess don't do no lying. Jess don't do no lying. She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide message. On The Breakfast Club. She's a coach of shit. She was able to get y'all to

see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it on. Not having fun is even more exhausting. When you out, you not having fun?

Oh my gosh. Oh my God. You're just wishing to be home? What's the point of even being out? We was just talking about that in the back. I know. It's crazy. Alright. Shooting takes place near Little Baby Video Shoot. So yesterday he shot. Oh my god, no. Yes, he was outside in Atlanta. He was shooting a video

and we have the report for it. So around 5 p.m. this evening our officers were dispatched to the 2000 block of Urbina Street in reference to multiple people shot upon arrival. We did, in fact, find individuals that had been shot on scene. One of the individuals that was shot, he self-transported himself to the hospital where he was at Grady not too long after the incident,

but the other two individuals were transported by EMS. A subsequent investigation has revealed there was a music video that was being shot at the location at the time in which the shots were fired. We do know that there were several people on scene as well as several vehicles, and we had multiple individuals flee the scene subsequent to the shooting. So we're still in the early phases of the investigation, but we do have some of the best detectives in the business that are working to try to get to the bottom of this. Take a shot every time the cops say a shot.

I know, man. It was three guys, three young guys. They were in their 20s. One was shot in the arm, one was shot in the back, and then one was shot in the neck. And as far as it's been confirmed, they weren't actually in the video, but they were involved. And they may have had some involvement in the actual shooting and a spokesperson confirmed that they they was hesitant to say that it was little babies video but people was out there recording everything that's the problem and so they connected it like to little

babies video shoot but he was um confirmed to be unharmed and and was not involved his team was not involved in the shooting nothing like that but that's the problem because before the video was even shot everybody seen all the trucks pulling up it was all over the internet yeah that he was shooting you know that he was shooting this video when he was there so i'm sure the hood just came out to see little baby i know yeah and unless you let the ops know where you at too um sending healing energy to all those people who were shot but i'm telling you'm telling you, later on, look at this video on YouTube. Look at this Breakfast Club just with the mess.

And over the weekend, don't do it during the week because you probably got a life. On the weekend, take a shot every time you hear somebody in this part of the segment say shot. So you're trying to get somebody real hungover. It's a fun drinking game. I know, that's right. And then you just say having fun is exhausting? Yes. Lord Jesus. Not when you're game. I know, that's right. And then you just say having fun is exhausting? Yes. Lord Jesus.

Not when you're home, though. Yeah, that's true. 50 Cent responds to Stevie J. Oh, my gosh. Stevie J shared a video of himself dancing and flexing in the mirror to King Kong's recent song, Pick A Side. He's shirtless in the video. I'm trying to show off his muscles, I guess. And towards the end of the video, he started throwing up gang signs like he's not old as we know there's a part of the song where

King Kong's mentioned 50 and 50 already responded to that but now Stevie J inserted himself in the situation 50 has words for him too 50 shared a video of Stevie J he like reposted the video that Stevie posted where him throwing up gang signs on the

50 part and he, he's laughing. He said, why you make a video like this, man? I cannot wait to be in the same place with you guys. I know you don't know about me. If you listen to King Kong's song and you say to yourself, this song was corny, and you say to yourself, why is he saying these things? Like, why is he even insinuating

that there's an issue with 50? Why is he saying things like the feds didn't check the other house and you're saying like damn why would this song even come out look at his ogs yeah seriously yeah you know i mean like come on stevie j y'all y'all got to know better like why are y'all antagonizing this situation yes i'm some gang signs that's whack like why y'all doing that i just don't know and if you want smoke and you want to step to him when you see him, why would you put it online that pretty much say that, you know, we have beef, we have a problem.

Like, why are you going to put it out there? And why would you put this young man who's 26 years old, King Combs, in the middle of this? Y'all know that young man ain't built like that. That man's waves are beautiful. I know. Okay? You said they're beautiful?

They're beautiful. Now, he's a good kid. Like, why do that? Like, why put him in that? And even in his song, he don't even sound convincing no check the other house one of y'all say no diddy again yeah it's gonna be something no it's not are we gonna show you like what and they're gonna be screaming no diddy at this young man or something i bet you when you see gucci man you won't say nothing gucci man got a whole song called no diddy i messed up you know what i'm

saying like stop doing that why are we antagonizing this situation you put fuel on things for no reason stevie j you're supposed to calm this down yeah not not amp it up or say don't put out this record nephew come on exactly exactly it ain't worth it nope but that is just the mess for this hour thank you jess no problem charlamagne we getting that down too man four after the hour uh you know my new book is called get honest or die lying and uh i feel like we should all be as honest as possible. But it starts with being honest with yourself. This person from Florida might be a little too honest.

We'll discuss four after the hour. All right. We'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Wake up. Wake up. You're locked into The Breakfast Club.

Make sure you tell them to watch out for Florida, man. The craziest people in America come from from the bronx and all of florida yes you are a donkey a florida man attacked an atm for a very strange reason it gave him too much money florida man is arrested after deputies say he rigged the door to his home in an attempt to electrocute his pregnant wife police arrested an orlando man for attacking a flamingo. It's a breakfast club, bitchy. Donkey of the day with Charlemagne the guy. I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this. It's not me, little Duval.

It's y'all, okay? Donkey of the day for Wednesday, May 15th. Today is the 15th, right? Yes, it is. Yes. Goes to a Florida man named Stephen Boldly. Now, what does your Uncle Charla always tell you? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx

and all of Florida, and today is absolutely no exception, okay? One thing I've always admired about people from Florida is their honesty, okay? Don't ask someone from Florida their opinion if you don't want a real answer. Now, don't get me wrong. There's a lot of lying-ass people in Florida, too.

They are the home of the scam-bam-thank-you-mams. Don't get it twisted. You will get finessed by folks in Florida, too. for the most part they are very honest people even to a fault even to their own detriment and that's why we are here today see stephen bodley was convicted by an orange county jury last week of sexual battery on a child he admitted to sexually abusing his cousin disgusting probably very triggering for so many of us because this is something that happens in families that people don't talk about very easy to talk about the sexual abuse you may have been a victim of when you are discussing a stranger you know but it's not that easy when you're talking about someone in your own family

well steven he opened up about it but he wasn't the victim he opened up about being the perpetrator now there's nothing wrong with confessing your sins we all should if you have done heinous things to someone and you want to get it off your chest you want to get it off your spirit do it the reason steven is getting the credit he deserves for being stupid today is because of where he confessed this sin now would you like to know what this man's sin was and would you like to know where he confessed it well he was doing a job interview for a police department he was applying to be a cop and during the job interview he admitted to playing sexual games with a family member so a certified voice stress analyst

examiner performed a voice stress examination on him and asked him to expand on this concerning answer that he provided in the pre-test questionnaire. And when he expounded, he described sexually abusing a child years ago. Detectives tracked down the victim's mother and the mother said Bodley and the victim had a close relationship. And the victim, who is a child, told the Department of Children and Families about the abuse, saying it took place over several years from when Bodley was 14 years old to 19 years old. Bodley's lawyer asked that his confession not be presented during trial. Negro, please.

This is why I can't stop saying the N-word. I be trying, but niggas be niggas, man. Now, I believe we need more honest police officers. I believe we need more honest people in the world. Every day of my life, I wake up and I challenge myself to be as honest as possible. And the person I need to be honest with the most is myself we lie to ourselves every day and then we volunteer those lies to other people every day that is literally what my new book get honest to die lying is all about you have to be honest with yourself at all times okay steven is clearly being honest with himself and

him being honest with himself is allowing him to be honest with others. But, Stephen, what made you believe you was going to still get a job? Not just as a police officer, but any job after admitting that you sexually abused a child at any point in your life. OK, now, mind you, it was a sworn officer application. So I respect them for not lying. I don't like people who swear on the Bible, swear their kids life swear on their dead mama swear on their dead daddy swear on the homies just be swearing and swearing knowing they lying people like that can't be trusted on no level so the fact he swore to tell the truth and didn't lie commendable but why did you think that was gonna get you the job did you think they was going to look and say well he played sexual games with his younger cousin uh he diddled a child but he was honest about it

no that's not how this works before we move forward with this application we're going to need you to put your hands behind your back okay anything you can say can and will be used against you in a court of law and you've already given us enough to use imagine going to apply for a job as a police officer and coming out a criminal now he's facing a life sentence you will never be able to convince this man that honesty is the best policy ever again he's sitting in jail right now locked up saying himself well why would they ever tell me the truth will set me free the truth got me locked up as it should the moral of the story is always tell the truth on a job application because if the job is

for you it's going to be for you i couldn't think anything better y'all i'm tired okay i just try to have something of socially redeeming value to say the moral of the story this is crazy okay please give stephen bodley the biggest eho what is going on y. I'm very much concerned. I'm not that bad. What is going on, y'all? I mean, come on. Like, what is... How does the human brain work to say, I'm going to this police department? That makes no sense.

I'm going to fill out this job application. It's a sworn application. And I'm going to tell the truth that I sexually abused a child and think that I'm going to still get a job. Probably excited you got a call back. Oh, they called me back. Yeah.

What? Because they're outside. They're serving me. Yes, exactly. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country.

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.

Hey there, I'm Dr. Maya Shankar, a cognitive scientist who studies human behavior. On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives. It was like a slow nightmare, you know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night, I would dream that my face was quote unquote normal or back to the way it was and I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture.

That they're something that looks like risky and idiotic to us is maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you social failure.

I think 26, 29. I forgot the age. But he was filling out a job application to be a police officer. And on the police application, he admitted to sexually abusing a child. It was a sworn application. So he admitted to sexually abusing a child on the

application. So we're asking 800-585-1051. Have you ever lied on a job application? Start with you, Jess. Have you? Yeah, I'm pretty sure sure i have you know what you lied about um being black on some of them what because i already have like jessica more it's kind of like you know you can be either or with that um and yeah i i just i will put i never put white i just put, I never put white. I just put other. I did put white one time. Put other. But yeah, I had a lot about my race. And my job history.

I was making up stuff every day. I think a lot of people do that. Make up their job history. Put mad jobs. Yep, yep, yep. I never ever told the truth about a felony though. Why? I just, I never did.

What is the job? Don't nobody want to hire you to identity theft. People be like, what? He don't even want to be you. Well, ain't nobody tell you to steal. You should have sold crack like me. Oh, boy.

No, no. I don't want to sell crack. I want to steal people's identity. No, no, I don't want to sell crack. That's it. Selling crack never stopped me from getting a job, though. I mean, I, you know, even...

Which is crazy. I think I got arrested for distribution of marijuana and possession of cocaine once. And I used to put that on my job applications. Never stopped me from getting a job. Now, mind you, I worked at a telemarketing place. I worked at a flower garden.

I worked at a warehouse. I worked in the mall at an old clothing store. It was a clothing store that used to exist called Demo. Never stopped me from getting a job. Yeah, me stealing people's identity never got... I always got a job. See? Yeah. So that's what I mean. Be honest on your job application yeah because they still i yeah but no like no because the people who look at the applications no i've i've been that person before i'm like nah no no no no

possession what please no like i i wouldn't hire somebody for like actually identity theft that means everybody in here is in danger yeah but you're gonna get fired anyway when they find out that you're lying but they know because they run background checks and then i still get the job because i'm a charmer but that's what i mean i would rather tell the truth and present as the person that i am which is the guy who's changed his life yeah then you hire me and you're helping me change my life and now you get blessed because you're helping somebody change their life.

But I was scared that they don't even give you that, they don't even give you the chance to explain. Some jobs just go through the application and be like,

oh, she's stealing people's identities? Yeah, right. Wow. You know, I'm not doing it. So you got convicted of stealing? Yes.

You know what's so crazy? What's funny is she stole a white person's identity then filled out the application and added the white person. Added the white person. That's crazy. The funny thing is, is Sidney, who's one of the people that funny is she stole a white person's identity, then filled out the application and added the white person. Added the white person. That's crazy. The funny thing is, is Sidney, who's one of the people, producers that work up here, I

was like, where's my wallet? Jess knew exactly where the wallet was this morning. Oh, my God. That's because you put it right next to it. Jess was like, the wallet's right there. I'm like, oh, okay. Sidney be stealing. No, he put it right next to my purse.

you know mostly on experience but one time i locked on a job saying that I was bilingual, that I could speak full Spanish. And at the time, I could not. So, like, at all, like, not really. I was real gringo. And so I lied, and I got the job. And then I had to prove in a meeting, and do a meeting in Spanish. And I sounded like Frank Perdue speaking Spanish to an entire boardroom.

Now imagine if you had to prove you was bisexual. That is a good point, Hugu. What? What's on your mind? Thank you, Louis. I don't even know

like, yo, maybe that's what you're supposed to be doing. Like, you know how many people have, you know, taken little shortcuts or cheated a little bit to get ahead? Mm-hmm. Why can't you, Asia? Yeah, but the problem with Asia is Asia going to tell you

If you're just joining us, Charlamagne gave Donka today to who? A person named Stephen Bodley. Stephen Bodley is a man from Florida and he's facing a life sentence because he admitted on a job application, he was applying to be a police officer, so they have a sworn application

and he admitted that he sexually abused a child at a point in his life so we're asking have you ever lied on a job application all right we have josh on the line josh good morning good morning good morning how y'all doing oh good man you ever lied on a job application oh yeah i ain't gonna lie i did i ain't gonna lie um like like uncle charlotte always say the lie is way more entertaining than the truth so when these folks see that that you did all these accolades, they're like, oh, wow. But the key is, though, you got to go in there and do the work. The work is going to suffice that lie. And the lie mostly be on a resume.

So you tell them that you did A's, Y's, D's because the application only asked, like, your birthday and have you had previous jobs. But that lie, that one lie told them the application or whatever, it got me in. I've been on that same job for the last five years. They never knew I lied. All I had to go in there and do is to work. So let me ask you a question. What happens when they call your references, though?

Well, you put the references down, that will lie for you. Oh. You know what I mean? It's 2024. These jobs just want a body. They don't want to know What you did back then They ask those questions

But To be real with you Show me the job And I feel like I can do it Just as well as you Or better than you You making a good point

That's true Thank you brother I would be telling these jobs now Honestly it don't matter What I did back then You know what I'm saying Because what I did back then I wasn't the best version of myself

I'm a way better version of myself now You should want me. Well, you know what he said is true. They say a lot of people don't want to work. And a lot of these businesses, it's hard to find people that actually want to work. So it really don't matter, I guess. Hello, who's this? Hey, good morning.

It's Zamiya. Hey, Zamiya. Good morning. Zamiya, you'll never get a job with that name. Say? On that application. I always get the job because I be lying on my resume. Oh, okay. What you be saying? I always get the job because I be lying on my resume. Oh, okay.

What you be saying? I take ChatGPT, I copy and paste the job description, and I tell ChatGPT to tailor my resume to the job I'm applying for. That's smart. I'm going to tell you something else, too, when it comes to lying on your job application, Zamiya. What's your name? Zamiya.

Zamiya. Let me hear something. Most of these employers, employers, right? I would look at these people. I would take into consideration why they're lying. If they're lying because they're actually trying to get a job and they're trying to better themselves and they know that I'm black or I got a name like Zumanji and I'm probably going to get denied. I would lie to give myself a better opportunity to get the job. Like you should factor that in.

Sometimes you definitely gotta stretch the truth a little bit. They're not gonna hire somebody named Zamiya just off the strip. What's your last name? What's your last name? Brown.

My God. A black name. Your African ancestry is 99.7%. You 99.7% West African. Zamiya Brown? It don't get no blacker. Maybe Washington. Jackson, too.

Jackson or Jenkins? Maybe. Hello, who's this? Jenkins, for sure. Hi, what's up? It's PJ Reed. What's going on, y'all? PJ, R-E-E-D. What's up, PJ Reed? You lying on your job application? Man, all right.

So I did, right? So, yeah, I was telling you, homie. So, I'm a gangbanger. I was convicted. And I lied because, you know, I needed a job. The job was paying really well. It was paying, like, you know what I'm saying, $140 for, like, an hour or something. And it started off as, like, you know, I bring, like $140 for like an hour or something. And it started off as like, you know, I bring like

some video games for the kids. You know, it was fun. And then I kind of got a little bit more into it. Started doing like empowering upstanders, anti-bullying. And, you know what I'm saying, my life ain't always been great, but I'm going to put it like this. I ain't s***. But if I can help the world be s***,

then, you know what I'm saying? First of all, Black man, you are s***. And the reason you are is because you are trying to better your life. Don't do yourself like that. Are you blood or crib? I'm cribbing. Yeah, respect yourself more, bro. Watch how you talk to yourself.

Don't talk to the homie like that. No, no, I'm just saying. You know what I'm saying?

Monica mistaken for sexy red. And 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.

On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives. It was like a slow nightmare, you know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night I would dream that my face was quote-unquote normal or back to the way it was. And I'd wake up and there'd be no change.

I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture. That they're something that looks like risky and idiotic to us. It's maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you social failure. Listen to a slight change of plans on the I heart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
