This is an iHeart Podcast. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast Betrayal. Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone. Most of all, his wife, Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me. How far would he go to cover up what he'd done? The fact that you lied is absolutely horrific.

And quite frankly, I question how many other women are out there that may bring forward allegations in the future. Listen to Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Amy Robach and TJ Holmes here. Diddy's former protege, television personality, Denity King alum Aubrey O'Day joins us to provide a unique perspective on the trial that has captivated the attention of the nation. It wasn't all bad,

but I don't know that any of the good was real. I went through things there. Listen to Amy and TJ presents Aubrey O'Day, covering the Diddy Trial on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Made for This Mountain podcast exists to empower listeners to rise above their inner struggles and face the mountain in front of them.

So during Mental Health Awareness Month, tune into the podcast, focus on your emotional wellbeing, and then climb that mountain. You will never be able to change or grow through the thing that you refuse to identify, the thing that you refuse to say, hey, this is my mountain. This is the struggle. Listen to Made for This Mountain on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Have you ever thought about going voiceover?

I'm Hope Woodard, a comedian, creator, and seeker of male validation. I'm also the girl behind voiceover, the movement that exploded in 2024. You might hear that term and think it's about celibacy, but to me, voiceover is about understanding yourself outside of sex and relationships. It's flexible, it's customizable, and it's a personal process. Singleness is not a waiting room. You are actually at the party right now.

Let me hear it. Yes. Listen to voiceover on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Good morning, USA. Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, wherever you get your podcasts. Happy to be here another day to serve our beautiful listeners. Good morning, what's happening?

I know you waiting for me to say something else, but no, I really, really look cute. No, it's dope. It's dope. They do go in the court outfit, like you testified. No, I feel like because Lauren goes to court all the time, like this is what y'all now classify these outfits as like court outfits.

No, I don't. I would not go to court with a little high-waisted miniskirt on. Now, the top is cool, but if I had on some suit pants and a blazer, I'd go. OK. I'll tell you, look classy Mission Impossible-ish. Thank you so much.

Look like you're about to solve some issues today. What is the Mission Impossible-ish part? Like you're on a mission.

I just want y'all to know that...

Oh, Bish and the Daydreams! Yeah, she was cool with Pac. It's a lot. I Should Have Cheated is an amazing song, but it is a red flag if a woman loves that song if a woman says That's my jam.

Morning, it's a from the first time for the first time but it's a key to go It's a box the breakfast club. Come on and wake your ass up morning everybody. We are the breakfast club Let's get in some front page news Now ok see beats Minnesota Timberwolves last night 124 94 they advance what a sorry ass showing by the Minnesota Timberwolves I am disappointed in Anthony. I mean what a sorry, sorry, sorry ass showing You know what? I mean, like you knew our great are supposed to be a great you got to show up He didn't show up at all. Definitely didn't not even a little bit Well, okay

See will probably be taking on my Knicks in a couple of games and next play tonight They play paces paces lead the series three one If I'm Adam silver in the NBA, I am trying to rig it to make the Knicks go to the finals But I don't want to see the Knicks go to the finals. Cause I don't want to see no Indiana Paces, Oklahoma City finals. Okay, that's no disrespect to nobody in Indiana, ROKC.

That's all disrespect. But that's gonna be like the COVID bubble. And there's great players on both teams, by the way. Great young players on both teams, the Halliburton's and the Shia's. But I'm just talking about market wise, you gotta find a way to get the New York Knicks into the finals.

Knicks are gonna be there. Good morning Morgan! Can't rig a killis for nobody. Hey, hey, front page news, somebody gotta do it. We're moving on. What are you talking about? Hey! All right y'all, so let's get into it.

Yeah, first on the front page, yeah that was a sorry game, sorry. But moving on, so Elon Musk says, he's leaving Doge. He posted on X that his time as a special government employee comes to an end and he'd like to thank President Trump for the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending now musk helped the Leave the Department of Government efficiency since it was established in January and he concluded his post saying the Doe's mission will only Strengthen over time as it becomes a way of life throughout the government.

Now as a special government employee, Musk was allowed to work for the administration for 130 days in a calendar year. And of course, like he mentioned, that time is now in a stark contrast. As I mentioned yesterday, Musk said he's disappointed in President Trump's so-called big, beautiful bill in a preview of an interview that's set to air this weekend on CBS Sunday morning. Now he criticized the bill saying it undermines the work that the Doge team is doing. And he also says he's not sure if a bill can be big and beautiful at the same time.

He's right. Yeah. So this comes as Tesla investors are demanding Musk work 40 hours a week at the company. After steep declines in sales, a group of pension fund leaders claim Tesla's stock price volatility is volatile and declining in sales and other disconcerting reports are cause for serious concern. Now, the issues with the company is facing as a direct, they believe that it's a direct result of Musk's role at Doge now, no word.

I wonder if Tesla can bounce back or has Elon done irreparable damage to the Tesla brand? I wonder. That's literally the next thing I was gonna say. We'll see if Tesla can recover now that Musk is no longer a special government employee and whether or not he'll take on that 40 hour work week. Go ahead.

Yeah, no, I was gonna say, I don't think it is repairable right now. I think it's gonna be where it is, and I don't think people want to drive Teslas. Like I have a Tesla, and I have to think about where I'm driving to, because I know if I drive to certain places, I know somebody might put some dog-ish on my car,

or spit on my car, because people just don't like anything Elon Musk right now. Yeah, because all Elon did was come in, fire a bunch of people who shouldn't have been fired. He's the reason there's not enough air traffic controllers at the airport, you know, right now. And you know, you can't just F things up and then leave. So if I got to think about where I want to drive my car, you know, what's gonna make me do get rid of that car?

Not drive it right. Speaking of F and things up and leaving. No, President Trump says he will can he will. Oh, actually, let's get into the pardoning. He's on a pardoning run. He pardoned rapper NBA Youngboy following fraud charges and signed pardons for a variety of people on Tuesday, including New York Representative Michael Grimm, reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley, and a White House official also announced that the POTUS signed off on a commutation of Larry Hoover's sentence of six life terms. Now, Hoover was a Chicago street gang leader and the co-founder of Gangster Disciples. It's unclear on how soon he will be released

from federal custody, but he still faces the remainder of his 200 year sentence in Illinois for the 1973 murder. And I'm gonna tell you something, man. I always knew people didn't read, but yesterday just proved to me how much people didn't read. The amount of people that I thought was smart and intelligent who got online and started saying, welcome home, Larry Hoover, you deserve to be released, blah be released blah blah blah y'all just did not read the

fine print because yes he got a commutation. You know the difference between a commutation and a pardon right? Morgan what is it? Yeah okay so the commutation basically means that his sentence is reduced or revoked but the pardon means that it's completely erased that basically that nothing ever existed essentially but the commutation it means it's still on the record but they've they've essentially like reduced it or yeah reduced it and that's on the federal level but he still has a hundred-year state sentence yes for a 1973 murder. Yes, it is true. For whatever reason, it's like nobody read that book.

No, they just read headlines. Maybe not even President Trump because what? Like, okay. But yeah, that's your front page news for six. It continues at seven and we will get into crypto and as you mentioned, NV, transportation and what's going on with the airports. All right. Everybody else get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

Hi, this is not the from New Jersey Cassandra Hey, and I need for a duet attorney hider. We call a Hannah Montana. I need for her to move Congress MacIvor's case from out in North into Kansas or Triton because Paul Spitzman who is a former US attorney and that building no heavy judge no heavy prosecutor, he's Monica McIvor's attorney which we know she can't afford him. Cassandra we have no idea what you're talking about Cassandra. Cassandra we have no idea what you're talking about.

You know why we know what we're talking about? You know why we know what I'm talking about? Cassandra Cassandra we have no idea You I didn't need a name got you absolutely Congresswoman Monica McIntyre, she's the one that's accused of assaulting the federal march. Yes, absolutely. Now this could be the consequence for North. And she could put residents out and have us courted out by the police just for verbally expressing our opinions. Just for talking out loud. So consequences need to be had for her. It needs to be made to be revived, or to jail, or get probation.

That case has to be moved out of Newark. Now, Cassandra, I will say two things can be true, but I'm not aware of what you're saying in regards to what LaMonica has done to the residents in Newark, but LaMonica should not be getting charged with assault against one of those ICE agents right now, currently.

That's like, we all saw the video. There was no assault there. We all saw the video. We saw how assault there. We all saw the video, we saw how she's rocking her arms around Ms. Watson, rocking her arms around Ms. Baraka. Why did she not let Mr. Baraka, who understands that he is not to try to fight with the police, he was gonna be extorted, he has his details there,

nobody was gonna bother him, he's the mayor, they were gonna take care of him. Why did she behave like that? She don't even let you behave like that when she was the president and her chambers she would not allow that you have she had a lady right now Colleen field is banned from coming to the house to me for the whole year because she said made a comment that Congresswoman Monica McIver when she was the president council president been right she's been for a whole year, but it was consequences for us just talking out loud Hmm, I understand I get it. I get what you saying

so what so what so you want her to be moved to Camden because you think that uh You think no system is going look out for her or something? What you saying? What the US Attorney under the Obama administration. Paul was there for like eight years. Gotcha. He was their boss in that building. Well, if LaMonica ever comes up here, we're going to save this call and play it back for her,

because I would like to hear her opinion on what you just said. I mean, I don't know anything about it. Absolutely. Hello, who's this? Yo, this D-Dolton Philly. What's up, brother? Get it off your chest. Yo, where's that at?

Right here, what's up? Yo, I love you, man. So you're a real one. You keep it real. I just want to say, hey, so cool, you got this, yo. Don't worry about that. And CJ, it is all the man up to pick up for us, too. Y'all have a good day. I love you,

just you, my cool. I love you, too. Thank you, babe. I didn't do anything. Okay. Just speak up. Just be like, hey, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051 and Keisha Cole will be joining us next hour. But coming up next, we got the latest with Lauren. We'll be talking about Lauren. We do. Stefan Diggs is in trouble. Him and Cardi B, they started some trouble. They should not be in trouble. That is the most Three-thirstiest clown groupie crap I ever seen in my life. Oh, it's not for that. It's for the Altoids Oh my god for the Altoids. I think it was Altoids and that's my story. I'm sticking with it. You didn't see the videos No, we're gonna get into it in the latest. All right

The breakfast club Morning everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious. I'llvy, I know we talked about this yesterday we wanted to take a minute to just send a rest in peace to I want to make sure I get his name right is it Sasha Jenkins? Sasha Jenkins. So Sasha Jenkins I'm reading a post from Essence when I saw this last week I thought that this one was the most most endearing of his legacy. Hold on it's loading.

You want to talk a bit about Sasha Jenkins while this is loading? I really don't know much about the brother. I know that he was up here one time, I think he was going to do the Breakfast Club doc at one time. He's done documentaries, he's done Wu-Tang documentaries, he's a journalist, he's written for so many magazines and publications. He was just a good brother, a good brother in hip hop and just wanted to send a rest in peace. Rest in peace to send a rest and peace.

Yes, absolutely. Yes, in essence I did a whole piece on him that I'm so mad it's not coming out right now because they took time to dive into his pen and why his pen was so important. And for me today as a journalist, I think that a lot of people don't understand when people talk about the pen of a journalist, especially in hip hop, why that even matters. And to be when something happens or even before something happens, to have people speak about you in a way where it's like your storytelling changed lives.

That is really hard to be impactful in that space. So I thought Essence, shout out to them, did a really good job of capturing his life, everything that he had done, how his influence came in. So yeah, just wanted to send him a message. He did some amazing documentaries with Mass Appeal as well. One of the documentaries I really liked from him. I don't even know if this was Mass Appeal,

but he did the Wu-Tang Clan Mike Sinman documentary that came out in 2019. But a lot of times we talk about the artists or we talk about the people that we see, but sometimes it's the people that, it's behind the scenes that's really the architect and all that, so recipes to that, brother. Yeah, and that's what I mean,

because it's tough as a journalist who's actually a writer and you're not like the, people think think you got to be on camera, you got to be loud, you got to be seen to make impact the way he did through what he did coming from the time period that he came from and still have people want to take the time to talk about how amazing he was. So make sure you all go check that out. I'm sorry that it's not coming out right now, but Essence had an amazing breakdown of his career and his legacy.

But as we move on into other news Stefan digs So we had talked a bit about you know in the tease about Stefan digs being in some trouble right now the three girls Yes, yes girl was like 20 girls on that boat, but I've seen the three. Yes in the video yes, so there are video circulating from over Memorial Day weekend of Stefan digs and Cardi B on a boat in Miami having a good time. Now the issue that honestly, in my opinion, the internet created was that at one point you see Stefan Diggs with these three with three women, Cardi B is not in the video,

and he opens up what looks like an outtoy case. And he hands whatever is in the outtoy case, he hands it to these women. And then, you know, they go off and do whatever they do So this sparked and I think it's the time period right now and of like, you know You have so many different things going on you have this the Diddy conversation and the pink cocaine conversation And we don't know what was in that case We don't even know if there's an investigation into it. Honestly, we do know that his team has seen it and that they've had conversations It's probably won't help. Nothing is at this point ESPN everybody is covering this

in a way that is like okay here's what people are singing and here's what people are thinking. But his head coach Mike Raible actually had to comment on it prior to one of their workouts. Let's take a listen. A video of Stefan Diggs has gotten a lot of traction in the last 24 hours or so. He's on a boat, having a good time, but the question comes in as to a certain substance that people are guessing what is and is. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast Betrayal. Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone, most of all his wife Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me.

Caroline's husband was living another life behind the scenes. He betrayed his oath to his family and to his community. She said you left bruises, pulled her hair, that type of thing? No. How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done? You're unable to keep track of all your lies, and quite frankly, I question how many other women may bring forward allegations in the future. This season of betrayal investigates one officer's decades of deception.

Lies that left those closest to him questioning everything they thought they knew. Listen to Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Amy Robach and TJ Holmes here. Diddy's former protege, television personality, platinum selling artist, Denity King alum Aubrey O'Day joins us to provide a unique perspective on the trial that has captivated the attention of the nation. Aubrey O'Day is sitting next to us here. You are, as we sit here, right up the street from where the trial is taking place. Some people saw that you were going to be in New York and they immediately started jumping to conclusions. So can you clear that up?

First of all, are you here to testify in the Diddy Trial? Aubrey will offer her opinions and expertise based on her firsthand knowledge. From her days on Making the Band as she emerged as the breakout star, the truth of the situation would be opposite of the glitz and glamour. It wasn't all bad,

but I don't know that any of the good was real. I went through things there. Listen to Amy and TJ Presents, Aubrey O'Day, covering the Diddy Trial on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

I'm Hope Woodard, a comedian, creator, and seeker of male validation. To most people, I'm the girl behind voiceover, the movement that exploded in 2024. Voiceover is about understanding yourself outside of sex and relationships. It's more than personal. It's political, It's societal. And at times, it's far from what I originally intended it to be. These days, I'm interested in expanding what it means to be voiceover, to make it customizable for anyone who feels the need to explore their relationship to relationships. I'm talking to a lot of people who will help us think about how we love each other.

It's a very very normal experience to have times where a relationship is prioritizing other parts of that relationship that are being naked together. How we love our family. I've spent a lifetime trying to get my mother to love me, but the price is too high. And how we love ourselves. Singleness is not a waiting room. You are actually at the party right now. Let me hear it. me but the price is too high. And how we love ourselves. Singleness is not a waiting room. You are actually at the party right now. Let me hear it. Listen to VoiceOver on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Is this something that the team has to look into? Well, it's something that we're aware of. And obviously, we want to make great

decisions on and off the field And we're hoping that with our time here on the field today And that when we don't have a script and we're on the call parents that were making great decisions and so the message will be the same for other players that were trying to make great decisions and Any conversations that I've had with Stefan will remain between him and I and the club How do you even figure out what the substance was though? And that's my point. They went to the worst.

I said, the legal substance, maybe their breath was hot and he was giving them out to us. Yeah, people instantly jumped. They was trying to ease up real close though. They didn't even ease. They was close. They was all in it. And I thought at first that was,

as soon as I saw the video, I didn't even peep the whole little case thing. I just saw the girls, but I knew Cardi was on the boat. And I'm like, people gonna have an issue with the fact that these girls are so close and he's with Cardi now and blah, blah, blah. Well, it was the one that eased in between his legs a little bit.

He moved like, yeah. He moved her at the end of the video. More than Cardi on the boat too? Yes. Yes. And it was a lot. So was she, was she driving the boat? What was she doing?

Was she steering? Like where was she at? I don't know where she was at that moment, but there's other videos of the boat where you see there's a ton of other women. It was a huge party, so whatever was happening there with him as far as the women just being there, she was there as well too. Cardi B was there as well too, so she has to be okay.

Also, I saw a video of Cardi on a boat with a bunch of women and she was getting lap dancing. It was the same boat. That's what I'm saying, they were having a good time. They together. By the way, Altoid cases are very distinctive. Like you know Altoid case when you see an Altoid. It looks like an Altoid case. You can't really see the top but the way he had you know you got pop Altoid case open a certain way. It looks just like an Altoid case.

Yeah and ESPN as of today has said that the NFL has declined to comment so far but I think that this is just... let me not say what I think. Yeah. I think they're just trying to mess with him. I think it is, you know, they're making it bigger. The internet made it bigger than what it is. You know, that's just what it is. Even the whole thing about the women. I don't think he did anything. Like I said, they were the three thirstiest women I've ever seen. But if Cardi was okay with it, she was at the front of the boat getting lap dances. He was in the back. He wasn't even getting a lap dance. I just know I seen Shorty moving up, you know, in between his legs and he kindly pushed her away. Yes. Now I want to make mention send a congratulations to Dawn Sallie.

And I do want to correct myself, it's Ebony Magazine, who did the Jenkins write-up that I really enjoyed and they talk about his pin touching vibe double excel rolling stone and beyond his directorial work with Wu Ting of Mikes and Men. He did Louis Armstrong's Black and Blues all up in the biz. They do a really great breakdown so if you guys are not familiar with this journalist I mean it's sad that you're getting to know him now, but please take a look at this Ebony Magazine write up.

It was a great write up that they did to honor him. So, send another rest in peace to him and some comfort to his family. All right, well that's the latest with Laura. Now when we come back, we got front page news and then Keisha Cole will be joining us. And also, today we do Just Fix My Mess. Absolutely.

So if you wanna get on the phone lines right now, we can do that too. Sorry, I'm good. 800-585-1051, it's The Breakfast Club, good morning. Wake up, wake up, you're locked into The Breakfast Club. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy, we are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.

Now some quick sports last night, OKC beat the Timberwolves 124.94. And tonight, the Knicks take on the Pacers at 8 p.m. The Pacers lead the series 3-1, but don't worry, it's the Knicks in seven. All right? What's up Morgan? All right, child. Let's get back into it. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says allocation for the FAA in the house approved spending package will not be enough. He said it won't be enough to support needed upgrades to air traffic operations. Now Duffy has repeatedly said low staffing numbers and outdated technology are the root of various incidents that require significant funding.

Now speaking to reporters, Duffy said we're going to need to fully fund the project and added that we need it all up front. And that's a big ask for Congress to give the money all up front for that, which is necessary, but we're going to, he's basically saying they're gonna need all the money up front in order for this project, the overhaul of the ATC systems to be successful.

Now Duffy's overhaul is expected to include brand new telecom radar and radio equipment, as well as updates to front and back ends of the air traffic control system. Now with this Duffy also provided an update on problems at Newark Liberty International Airport. Let's take a listen to those comments. This is a safe system and there's redundancies but again I'm concerned that we could have more of Newark's. This truly is a moment to look at what kind of system we're using, what kind of equipment we use,

what kind of telecom we use. And it's a call to action to make sure we build a brand new air traffic control system. Here's what I don't understand. We know this bill provides a lot of tax cuts for the rich. Don't the rich fly? Don't people in Congress fly? What would be the holdup? What would be keeping you from making sure air traffic

control gets the money it needs for upgrades? You don't need the penny pinch when it comes to that. Like even if you fly private you are still impacted by the lack of FAA traffic controllers and like I said people in Congress fly so what would be the holdup? Like what why wouldn't you just make sure they got all the money they need to get the upgrades for air traffic operations? That is an amazing question. And you're right, just even if you do fly private, you still are subject to, you know, certain rules and regulations in terms of air traffic controllers. I mean, they're definitely necessary and need to be used in that regard. So you're right. I don't know. But Duffy does

say that FAA's TRACON facility in Philadelphia is the one that oversees the Newark airspace. It will get 16 more air traffic controllers by the fall. That number is currently working out of TRACON after five controllers took mental health leave last month saying they were traumatized by the recent events of that going dark the 90 seconds of the communication systems going dark I mean that's a lot of pressure. Yeah they said they don't want to be responsible for you know people getting killed and something that McDuffie said just now that's very important he's Duffy said that's very important he said he don't want more new works so you may not be paying attention

to it now because it's just newer what about when it's the airport in your area? Well, I spoke about that yesterday saying that there are three airports in Texas alone, I believe Austin, Houston, and I'm thinking San Antonio that are also dealing with shortages in air traffic control system. So it's one of the situations. It's sad, but hopefully you're proactive on this situation

as opposed to reactive. And reactive means that something has happened. So yeah, to your point Charlemagne, it is a matter of getting it done and figuring out Congress holds the purse. Is this something that is important enough for Congress to go ahead and make a move? But Duffy is asking Congress for billions of dollars to gut aging airport infrastructure around the country and rebuild from scratch And Congress flies. That's what's so mind boggling to me.

It's just like, why are we just sitting around waiting for something terrible to happen? They fly into DCA at that, into DCA where there have already been situations. So, yeah, Congress, go ahead. You know what I'm saying? Matter of fact, I'm going to come up there and talk to you next week when recess is over. And Morgan, tell us about what's going on with the Black Information Network. Oh, my gosh. Such an amazing thing. Go ahead. You know, as a matter of fact, I'm gonna come up there and talk to you next week when recess over and Morgan Tell us about what's going on with the black information network. Oh my gosh such an amazing thing So the Obama Foundation is a nonprofit collaborator of the black information network and yesterday the BIN announced a multi-year collaboration with the Obama

Foundation so the two will work to advance community engagement, especially among youth, by providing and promoting civic participation, spotlighting community leaders and amplifying powerful stories of change. All this as the Obama Presidential Center is set to open in Chicago on the South Side in 2026. So we will bring you the stories as that develops. I spoke exclusively with the Black Information Network president Tony Coles about this collaboration ahead of the announcement and here's what he had to say. Here's Tony Coles. We really feel that this collaboration gives us an opportunity to tell the stories of great things that are happening in communities all across America and certainly things that are happening in Chicago as the presidential

center is being built and will be opened up in 2026. There's a wealth of storytelling that we're looking forward to sharing. So we're talking about from the contracts to the people who get the jobs, to the people who are a part of these, to the people who get the jobs, to the contracts, to the people who are a part of these who get the to the people who get the jobs to the contracts to the people who it impacts in the neighborhood and of course their initiatives like my brother's keeper alliance the leaders program girls opportunity alliance obama foundation scholars all of these they we aim to support the next generation and continue to be i am commitment to providing non-partisan fact-based news that uplifts our communities.

And hopefully, you know, I'm hoping that it creates also a like direct pathway with Obama and you know, his people as well. And so that's a really exciting partnership or collaboration rather, that is happening with the Black Information Network and the Obama Foundation. Now, I want to pose a question to you guys if possible, do you think something like this, like developments like this, these multi-use spaces, especially in the South Side of Chicago, like the Presidential Center, could influence like a New Age Harlem style Harlem Renaissance, but like maybe in the shy?

I mean, we are entering the late 20s and 30s, and that's when the Harlem Renaissance happened. So do you think something like that could influence that type of movement? Yes. And it's more important now than ever because I feel like a lot of the education that is going to happen for this next generation is gonna come through the arts. Like when you think about, you know, how they're stripping away, you know,

black history just damn near everywhere. And you know, they're banning certain books everywhere. Like I feel like the arts is where people are going to learn, you know, just a lot about our history and just American history in general, world history in general. So yes, I do think that these centers are gonna play amazing role in some type of new Renaissance.

I definitely look forward to it as well. Well, that's your front page news. Y'all can follow me on social at Morgan Media and for more news coverage, follow at Black Information Network. You see we doing our big one over here. Download the free iHeartRadio app and visit us at BINnews.com. Thank y'all. Peace Morgan. All right. When we come back, Keisha Cole will be joining us. So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Laura Rosa is here as well, and we got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed. Keisha Cole, welcome. Hey, hi, hi, how you doing? It's been a long time. How you feeling, how's everything?

It's been a very long time. It's been probably over, what, seven years or something like that? I think so, man. Seven years. I'm bugging that this is the 20th anniversary of your debut album. Yes.

Like, God damn. It's been 20 years flying by. It is a long time. How does it feel when you think back, think about that? I'm still processing it. I mean, I'm happy that we're able to do a tour, 20th year anniversary tour is more insane because I mean, I mean it's a great album so yeah I'm appreciative of the fans and them supporting so. What do you remember about yourself 20 years ago? Woo! The woman you were 20 years ago. Wrecking rooms, boy.

You was a hood! Fashion TV, baby. Just fighting, just crazy, just insane. But I learned a lot, so it's all good. Y'all missed the Keisha Remi Ma era. That was a crazy era. That was, that was, that was, that was stepping in the steel toes for sure. I'm thinking back like wow.

This imagine if there was like heavy social media back then. Oh thank God no. Heavy phones back then. I think soon as I actually was pregnant when, when Twitter first started and Monica was trying to get me on Twitter and she was on Twitter and I just I didn't like it It's like everybody just they was talking, you know I spelled one word wrong what it was Not my type of thing but yes, but it's been a minute

She was just telling me she wanted a little girl. She ready for a little girl now I am ready for a little girl. You want to start over? If God, yes, for the rest of my life. Yep, that would be awesome. I mean, you know, when you accomplish so many things and you set so many goals for yourself and imagine accomplishing those goals, all the goals that you set for yourself. Like I always wanted to headline my own arena tour. I'm pretty sure I said that when I came up here maybe 10 years ago. And I mean, just like that I'm on my second one now for my first album. That is just

insane to me just to kind of process that. But I mean, I think setting new goals and just wanting new things in my life, I think a girl would be one of them. Yeah, because this version of Keisha would be better. For sure. A girl. Yeah, and a husband. Keisha would be better for sure. Yeah and a husband. And a husband. The old one was not taking it, not having it. No, actually you got to go. I think yeah, we came up here one time. Yeah. Yeah. So that was the thing. But yeah, like, you know, I think this version would be better for her. I think the beauty of you though, Keshia,

is that you did grow, at least to me, on your own terms. Good, bad, ugly, you grew on your own terms. And a lot of people don't get that opportunity. Really? I don't think so. Especially in music, because you grew out loud. Oh yeah, for sure. You grew in front of people.

Some people, it's an image that they gotta maintain, for sure. You grew in front of people. You know what I mean? Like some people who got a, there's an image that they got to maintain so they don't ever get to do that. And then, you know, they end up slapping somebody on stage. And you were like, damn, I didn't even know that was. You was growing in there like that. Nobody knew that anger was there.

Shout out to Will. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, I thought that was stage. No, okay, so boom. I don't know, because that's what they show on TV. They say that it would happen before or something. What the heck was that? But I like, yeah, my son too. I was like, I never seen my oldest son. He's angry at all, ever. Like, and I'm scared about that. Like, I'm like, where is it coming? When is it coming? Because I've never seen

him yell, get loud, argue. I'm like, never him so that would be scary but no I have I have I have lived my life in front of everybody I don't yeah just never had a problem with it. You said you've never seen your son a yellow screen but that says a lot about the environment you raised him in. Yeah. Maybe we just used to that because that's how we came up. We think that's what normal supposed to be. Oh yeah no but I don't know cuz my little one he cuss everybody out. Okay. Yeah that one is going to get me all hell that broke loose with me. I hope, I pray not, but it looks as if so because he don't take no sh- at all. Like he be capping on his brother like for real big back and all. He says that to his brother.

Yeah. So what does brother do? To bias that's not nice to bias. Oh no. So one is MLK and one is Malcolm X. Oh man. Yeah, yeah very much so. Oh it's bad.

Did he call your son a big back? No. His brother. Why? Because her little son calls her calls him a big son. Because DJ's dad and grandfather, they're 6'2", 6'9", his grandmother's tall, all of them. So DJ's big, he's like, he's a big guy.

But not fat. No, he's not fat, but he's a big dude. He can play football for sure. Like athletes. Yeah. We don't call them big backs. But Tobias does. But as a kid, you call everybody big back. Yeah, we don't we call them. You don't call them big backs. We call Tobias does. But as a kid you call everybody big back. He got it wrong. You got to teach him. I tell him all the time. That's not cool. Give him some of the teaching when it's obese people

that walk by. That's when you use that is not when you use the term. No, you never use the term. the term no you never use the term tell me where Tobias got that from I don't know oh big't. No I didn't. No I didn't. But Keisha, what I've always loved about you is you've always been relatable with your music and even like showing your life on TV with your family and everything like that. Was there ever a point that you said that you regretted doing that? Yeah, yeah.

And it's still real? Putting it out there? Hell yeah. Hell yeah, when everything started going Can I say that? Yes. Okay, thank you. Because yeah, when everything started like when nobody was

getting better, I feel like that was the goal for the show and I remember talking to me about this. Um she was the editor of Vibe Magazine and I was like, I don't know if I should do it. She said, well, what is your purpose of doing it? And I said, well, I wanna show the girls out there where I come from and me being able to make it out the hood and like really put that work in. She said, well, show that and make sure that the focus is always that. And when it was like coming, became a point of like unhealthy and just like really unhealthy

when my mom was showing up and it was like, bro, we cannot film today, bro. Like that's not cool. Like I'm not doing this. We got to stop this. And everybody was like really pissed at me. Like, I'm not doing this. We gotta stop this. And everybody was like really pissed at me, okay, because it was a lot of money on the table. And I didn't care about that. Like, it was like, no, we need to get some,

seek some counseling, get some, you know, put my mom in a program. And she was just like, Keisha, that's just not what I want, babe. Like, I'm happy with my life the way I am. And I was just like, stop spending your money. There's no need to do that. not what I want babe. Like I'm happy with my life the way I am and I was just like stop spending your money There's no need to do that. I don't want it. That's like I just it was just a point where I was just like, okay Well, it ain't no reason to keep continuing. They know we living. Yeah

Yeah, I mean like and I'm not showing anything that's growing people anymore. So I prefer to not do that How hard was it for you to hear that from your mom and accept that? Like that she wanted to live her life on her terms? Well, I just was like, you don't you sure you don't think it's anything we could do? You know, like maybe we can try? And she just was like, no, I just prefer it was like maybe a year before she passed actually. And she came out there and she actually told me not to put her in a program because she had Obamacare. And she wanted to use her Medica or whatever

to go into a program. And I was like, okay, well, that's what you wanna do. And she told me, she put it aside. She said, you know, Keisha, you never made me feel unloved. You never judged me. You never cursed at feel unloved. You never judge me. You never cursed at me. You never put your hands on me. She said, God is going to bless you for that.

And I'm like, my like, come on. She said, no. And I'm just I'm telling you, like, you know, and I know I want to do things the way I want to do them. Men and but you're going to be all right. And I'm just like, this is just like, I just can't take this bro. Like, come on, like, you sure it's nothing we can do? Like, I'm thinking it's something we can do, but a year later.

We're still kicking it with Keisha Cole. Now I want to talk about the verses you did with Ashanti. Was there tension between y'all two? No. And in addition to that, I'm so mad I had got COVID, because I was ready to just, I was so mad. And no. So that's what you was mad about having COVID. I was mad that I had COVID, in addition to the fact

that my mic wasn't working. Yeah. And I was like, get my mic right. Don't do that to me. I don't know who's in cahoots in here, but y'all not about to sabotage my stuff. So that was a, that was a, but it came off as like I was being unappreciative of the moment,

which I wasn't because I was so excited about that moment and I mean to be up there with such a beautiful like artist like Ashanti, like I came up on Ashanti like that, so fire. So nah, never and I hate that people took it that way. Nah. There was some people took it that way yeah nah there was some people who thought that was stage two though because they think that that's like your persona like a character you portray that would like

always with the drama always angry I think it was doing the verses when it was the thing about whose turn it was people were like they I think I don't know if she was remind you was her turn you was mine to her was your turn it people was like all right they're doing this to play into the whole wait what during the verses I think it was Ashanti was telling you that it was her turn you're about to play another song but I think you were just excited to play the other song you don't remember this really yes but people grabbed that online too and they were like this is them playing into the whole like Keisha Cole do her thing her little one, too That's too bad I hate that I hate that but I mean shout out to Ashanti cuz I mean she's amazing So yeah, I mean just to be up on that platform with Ashanti.

You love fast. That's what you picked up over all these years. I've seen you and you seem like you're in love fast, like you love love. I think he means like you're locked into the love, like you're loyal to him. I don't know how long she known these people before. She loves love, ain't nothing wrong with that. No, when you see it on Instagram, you see that you think I'm in love fast then, but there's definitely something built before I just, like before I just post somebody like I'm not just but you love love I definitely love love for sure like I'm a lover girl for

Like I just can't, it's like I'm going with the flow or whatever that feels like. I'm not, I'm not doing too much calling. It's not, it's like everything is reciprocated right now. Like, you know what I mean?

Like you give me love, I give you love. If it's no love to be given, it ain't no love to be given. And that's just gonna be what it's gonna be. You mentioned the tattoo and you might not get rid of the tattoo. I don't know yet. I just haven't did it. What is the tattoo? It's a Hancho tattoo.

Oh. She's gonna say she be knowin' and we don't. I thought sorry, she has Hancho's name tattoo, but I was wondering if not getting rid of it is because like you're hoping to like rekindle. Well, I'm just not dating. So it's not like, oh, I'm dating some dude and I'm sitting across the table and I got him on my chest You know me I'm not I guess I got too much work to do right now.

That's some crazy shit. Here comes Jess. Jess on the way. She just, yeah. With the baby in touch. I want to rephrase my question then. When did you start trusting love again? Was there ever a period where you didn't trust?

No, no, no, no. No, I know when someone is in love, they're like, oh, I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you.

I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not going to trust you. I'm not start trusting love again? Was there ever a period where you didn't trust? No, no, no, no. No, I know when someone cares about you, I do. But things happen, you know? I just feel like some things aren't made to last and unfortunately my lasting love has, I don't know.

Maybe it's here, maybe it's not. Has it ever been a point right where you is like Well, you have to be reminded of who you are though. You know people I would love to address that What do people mean by that because people say it all the time remember who you are? And I thought me but Amy Robach and TJ Holmes here Diddy's former protege television personality Amy Robach and TJ Holmes here. Diddy's former protege, television personality, platinum-selling artist, Denity King alum Aubrey O'Day joins us to provide a unique perspective on the trial that has captivated the attention of the nation. Aubrey O'Day is sitting next to us here. You are, as we sit here, right up the street from where the trial is taking place. Some people saw that you were going to be in New York and they immediately started jumping to conclusions.

So can you clear that up? First of all, are you here to testify in the Diddy Trial? Aubrey will offer her opinions and expertise based on her firsthand knowledge from her days on making the band as she emerged as the breakout star. The truth of the situation would be opposite of the glitz and glamor.

It wasn't all bad, but I don't know that any of the good was real. I went through things there. Listen to Amy and TJ Presents Aubrey O'Day covering the Diddy Trial on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast Betrayal. Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone, most of all his wife Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me.

Caroline's husband was living another life behind the scenes. He betrayed his oath to his family and to his community. She said you left bruises, pulled her hair, that type of thing. No. How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done? You're unable to keep track of all your lies, and quite frankly, I question how many other women may bring forward allegations in the future. This season of betrayal investigates one officer's decades of deception.

Lies that left those closest to him questioning everything they thought they knew. Listen to Betrayal on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Listen to Made for This Mountain on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Have you ever thought about going voiceover? I'm Hope Woodard, a comedian, creator, and seeker of

male validation. To most people, I'm the girl behind voiceover, the movement that exploded in 2024. Voiceover is about understanding yourself outside of sex and relationships. It's more than personal. It's political, it's societal, and at times, it's far from what I originally intended it to be. These days, I'm interested in expanding what it means to be voiceover, to make it customizable for anyone who feels the need to explore their relationship to relationships.

I'm talking to a lot of people who will help us think about how we love each other. It's a very, very normal experience to have times where a relationship is prioritizing other parts of that relationship that are being naked together. How we love our family. I've spent a lifetime trying to get my mother to love me, but the price is too high.

And how we love ourselves. Singleness is not a waiting room. You are actually at the party right now. Let me hear it. Listen to VoiceOver on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. For who I am, just my personal opinion of myself and love. And when you truly love somebody, you don't just be like, oh yeah, because I'm Keisha Cole, now I can go out and I can show him

who I really could be with, or who I really could be around, who really my friends, who really, like, no, it's cool. And whatever happens, God is happening because God said it's happening. So how do I, like, I can't just, I'm just not like that, so. You know what's interesting about that? And I think about it when they say remember who you are

Maybe clearly we don't know you because if you're doing what you want to do like we think we know That's the problem like that like you say other people's opinions are you know, just what they are other people's opinions But we don't know like they people don't know so above all of this is what that is It's like you're above all of this. You're above, you're greater than everything that's happening in your life right now. So sit above that. Don't deal with nothing. And actually don't even bring nobody to the fore for it no more.

Actually we don't even want to see you with nobody, Keisha, until it's... That's how you feel like people feel? I think so. Because I, and I'm not taking it as a way that like people feel like they don't want to see me happy Well sometimes but you know, they rather see it like if it's gonna be real then it's gonna be forever You know, I think my fans are like we didn't see you go through enough. That's the thing So much we want you to be happy Video that one viral view you were performing It was doing all the hunchel stuff and you were crying and they try to say okay

This is because of the hunchel stuff and people were crying and they tried to say, okay, this is because of the Huncho stuff. And people were really, really upset like online because people want to protect you so much and but you stay quiet. So when you see stuff like that and whether it is or it's not about him, how are you feeling about that? It was actually the last show of the last tour. That was my first arena tour that I prayed for. And I was thanking the fans for like being there for the whole tour. And, you know, as having great, a great tour, like I was crying of my fans being there for me.

Like, I don't know where the Huncho thing came from. I don't know. But if they wanted to think I was crying over Huncho, I guess. I don't know. I was like, cool. Keisha Cole is here. Lauren. Oh, anyway, on on a happier note I love to see people giving you your just do because you deserve all of the flowers and the things. I was at Usher's show when he brought you on stage. That was great. It was amazing to see that.

I was like what is happening? And it was so pure because you could tell you didn't even want to be up there but he just made it a point to he dropped love and she didn't even have to sing a word. Yeah he was so sweet for that he was so sweet. He just wanted you to listen to them they were screaming at the top of their lungs the whole arena. Oh my god. The song word for word. Yeah I think that's what I think we were talking about this the other day I think when people do that it makes me feel uncomfortable. Wow. I don't know. I get real like, I don't know. But maybe that's what y'all mean by remember who you are.

That as well. You brought Charlamagne on stage you can put cherries in Charlamagne's mouth too. That never happened. Listen, Cass you about the diaper? Why, why? Don't listen to him. She like it.

Why are y'all like that? It was cute. I don't care either way. I'm just asking because people be on I feel like it's really it's cool. It's another thing like my fans are people in general just like to Pick at me. I feel like because I could have sworn it But like they were telling me that doche wore it to the Super Bowl or something like that Oh, she don't she she wore it to the Super Bowl and She wore the same outfit. Okay. And everybody said she did it and it was fashion and it was and I was like oh really cuz I didn't

know that they showed me last night and I was like oh no I like it. It was cute. They showed you last night but you been wore it. But okay so remember who I am and remember, but I can't. So don't do fashion. Okay, boom. So I'll try to keep that on the list. Remember who you are, don't do fashion. Don't love until it's time for you to love and be married. And like, we wanna see you happy. I'm trying to satisfy the fans.

And listen, add another one. Don't text AB, cause he gonna put it out there. The nerve to bring that up. The nerve that he did. I don't text a because he won't put it out there the nerve to bring that up the nerve that he did This is a thing Have you ever used the diaper on stage What is wrong with you, that's what they called it that's what they was called it trying to be funny It's an actual outfit yo, no cuz I you know the rapper the baby used to wear a diaper on thing back

The whole the baby the baby That was his whole persona the baby so we had a pamper on during weekends when he's like attached it to that belt Yeah, that was before I like a belt on the side. No, it was a pamper It was to promote himself this is on on the over the jeans. No, no He did not have ass out with the I don't believe that. She's not coming back here for another seven years. I'm not coming back here. She's not coming back here for another seven years.

I never paid attention. Everybody be like, Keeja, I'm not like I stopped. Look, so I thought it wasn't a pimple. That's your job. Don't do that. You know what you're doing. I don't be paying attention. You know what you've been doing since you've been with Wendy.

Exactly. What happened? Did you punch him? Did you want to punch your friend? The diaper? Oh my goodness. Oh, Antonio. I'm talking about Adrian. I'm talking about that's the wrong A-B. Not the one that be getting beat up. The one that be beating people up. Oh my God. What? Why? I don't know. I don't know. All I know, and I'm going to try to be as respectful as I could be at this point because I do think

that he said a lot. But in addition to that, he also said that nobody wants me and nobody cares about me. So I just felt I took that as a that's like a cool. Then that means that you shouldn't speak about me. That means that there should be nothing there. There should be, if you, nobody wants or cares, then it shouldn't be spoken on anymore. That's what I thought that meant.

I just don't like corn and I just wanted to ask you, did you punch him for that? I didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't know. I haven't seen him for years, for years, since that. Since that was said, I haven't seen him. So I don't even know, I asked him to stop. I asked, I told him I have children

and I would prefer to. Right. Yeah, not have to go through that. And please, and God bless you. And it persists, so. Got you. Was there ever a point you thought to yourself, I gave the world too much of me? it persists, so, got you. Was there ever a point you thought to yourself, I gave the world too much of me?

When you think about, I think about all of this stuff that's coming up in this interview, and you're like, damn, all of that has been out there. It is, but I guess then I wouldn't be Kisha Cole. Some things I wish I could just erase, for sure. Word, word. Yeah. Like what, like? Like the last two minutes of this conversation.

You're gonna be in New York on July 12th too, by the way.

July 12th. We out skiing. This is the Breakfast Club. It's Keisha Cooke. Now let's get to the latest with Lauren. Lauren be coming with straight fast. Tell her, tell her. Man.

She gets in from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything and everybody. She be having the latest on the show girl that knows a little bit about everything. She'll be having the latest on the latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit of everything. Well, it's the latest.

On The Breakfast Club. Talk to me. So yesterday, Diddy was denied a mistrial. His team, his defense attorneys asked for a mistrial because they said that after it was revealed in court yesterday after they were speaking to an arson investigator that the fingerprints, so remember we had the conversation about there was fingerprints found on this bottle in the car when the cocktail was thrown and all those things, right, allegedly. Well, they're trying to talk about the fingerprints that would have been if they were properly

held all of this time from the alleged burglary that happened in Kit Cuddy's home. So Kit Cuddy says that, or alleges that Diddy went in his home, he, you know, went through some of his Chanel Christmas gifts for family, he alleges that Diddy put his dog away in another room, and then he pulled up. Now what is happening is yesterday on the stand, it was revealed that those records, those fingerprints from 2012, the evidence was destroyed, like they don't have it. Like it wasn't kept in a way where you could even look at it right now and be able to see if the fingerprints from that alleged burglary match anything near the fingerprints

that were found in the car. There was an argument in general about the fingerprints in the car because, you know, Diddy's team was saying, hey, look, I'm sorry, the prosecutors, the government was saying, look, we shouldn't even be able to talk about this because that bottle could have went through so many hands.

We don't have like a good expert to break down what this means. The person that we're talking to wasn't even a person who did the actual report on the fingerprints. Basically, it could mislead a jury. Diddy Seam is like, no, the DNA evidence that was found is what was found. And it allegedly pointed back to a woman. You can't even match that to anything in the home because there's no fingerprints whatsoever.

So Diddy Seam is saying, or they were trying to say, hey, look, the government knows that the fact that we don't have these fingerprints, the fact that you can't match it to when you guys are trying to say that, you know, our client Diddy did all of this, both the burglary in the car, because he's upset at Kid Cudi for dating Cassie, allegedly, you can't connect it to and knowing that that that's not fair to him, because that actually could prove that he doesn't have anything to do with the one or the other and y'all are not trying to have a conversation about that so it's unfair. So this is a mistrial. The judge denied it.

Of course. The judge denied it, was not having it. Maybe they just try to throw anything against the wall to see what sticks to see if they could possibly get a mistrial. They'll try again, I'm sure, but no, not a threat. It's reeking of desperation. Yeah, oh, yeah, you're fighting for your life after that Capricorn clerk testimony. You definitely fight for your life after that. But in other news in relation Cassie had her baby yesterday Yeah, she walked up Cassie welcomed her third baby yesterday less than two weeks

after testifying in this trial against Diddy. She gave birth in the New York in a New York hospital like we talked about. And the reports are that she is healthy and she is doing well. That is what matters. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. So glad to hear all of that. Yeah. Fine. My best. Yes. Her and her man. Her man. I'm- Alex Fine, my best. Alex Fine, yes, her- Her and her men. Her man, this is her third baby with her husband, Alex Fine, yes. Mentally and emotionally, that has to be a lot. Like that has to be like the extreme,

I don't know if it is, I wonder, did she have an extreme down taking that stand? I'm sure, I'm sure she had to relive a lot of trauma, right? Watching her- Yeah, then a couple weeks later, now you're having a baby, so I just know she's been on an emotional rollercoaster the last few weeks.

Yeah, she was on a stand contracting, right? She's holding her stomach or something like that. I don't know what contractions look like, but if I had to guess, I mean, she was definitely, she's holding her stomach. She was, yeah, there was a couple of times where she even herself asked for breaks and they of course gave her the breaks.

Could have been contractions, could have been pain. Yeah, she was pretty close to her. But it's also just a lot of mental pressure as well too. And having a day they made a rewatch the the video in the Intercontinental Hotel where she was dragged up and down. And it was tough watching her do that because she was so pregnant. So I can't imagine how she felt in it. And then her how her husband felt as well too. So I mean, maybe I don't know. I've been told that her original due date was the first week of June from a source, but I don't know if that had anything to do with it. But the baby is here, she is healthy,

Cassie is she, the baby's healthy, and Alex Fine is doing well too. That's the most important thing. That's right. So she had the baby today or yesterday? So I've been told, it was announced yesterday, but I've been told that she actually had the baby the day before, later in the evening from a source.

And I was so mad, nevermind. Okay, it's all right, well. So mad what? Nothing, it's all right. She didn't report it for us because she had the information. Yes, but I was trying to make sure I double, triple confirmed and by the time I was doing all that, boom, here go ABC News.

Well, it's better to be right. Oh yes. The problem with this area is everybody wanna be first. Yeah. And they don't be having the right information. And I also was trying not to be invasive. I texted Arlamian and was like, should I even even dig on this because if it is the pressure of the case I don't want to be the person that puts it out there and she don't want it out there

Yeah, you know what I mean? But yes, you made the right move. Shout out to ABC News They were the first people I saw with it up, but let me tell you I was on y'all. Okay, and While we had a happy birthday to a couple real niggas man, call mellolo Anthony. Okay. Llo! Laverne Cox, we out here. Okay. Yes, drop a clues bomb for both man. Yeah. That's what's up. Absolutely.

and we will, this is a teachable moment. I don't think you should be the teacher with this one, but all right. And then after that, Jess fixed my mess. Yes. 100-585-1051. You're having relationship issues and problems. Call Jess right now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Tell them! It's time for Donkey of the Day. It's a read, but you're so good at it. You're trying to be a fake ass Charlamagne. You're the only one Charlamagne in the garden. Damn Charlamagne, who would give a donkey of the day to an animal? Well Donkey of the Day for Thursday, May 29th goes to Christie Lee Crampton. Christie is an example of why when you go to Florida, you should only drink bottled water.

Okay, don't drink the water out the tap. Don't put the water out the tap in your tea, your coffee, nothing. Because soon as you take a sip of that water, you become a Florida fool. Okay, Christie not from Florida, but this situation happened while she was heading back home from her family's Disney World vacation, okay?

She must've drank out the drinking fountains at Disney because she was full of floater foolishness Now I can't even talk about this story the way I want to until I tell you until I tell you what happened Okay Now we had Keisha Cole here last hour and she was talking about One of her children and she was talking about her child calling her other child a big back But her child isn't fat. He's just bralic and I was explaining to her that big back should be reserved for the obese amongst us Okay, God forgive me for being a notorious fat shamer. I don't mean to be okay

It's something I'm working on you have to understand that growing up your mama So fat jokes were some of the first jokes we learned and clearly that cycle is continued Okay, fat shaming isn't a race thing It is an agenda thing humans fat shame other humans and there are some fat folks amongst us. Okay, let's go to WFTV nine for the report please. Christie Lee Crampton was set to be back home from her family's Disney World vacation. Instead, she made her first appearance in front of a Seminole County Judge Tuesday charged with felony child abuse. Allegiant flight 2885 to Hagerstown, Maryland was set to take off from Orlando Sanford

International Airport just before 2 p.m. Monday. But according to this arrest report, Crampton and witnesses on the plane tell police the child called Crampton fat and Miss Piggy, telling her she couldn't fit in the airplane seat. That's when witnesses say Crampton began hitting the child with her fist and then hit him on the head with a water bottle. Then the report says she slammed the child's head into the airplane window. The child used his arms to cover his head. Airport police haven't said how old the child is, but Crampton told police the child was very rude and disrespectful during their trip to Disney and that after the child called her fat, she took his phone away. She claims he then pushed her arm off the armrest twice and that's when she began smacking

him but police and witnesses say she went beyond typical disciplinary actions. I have so many questions, so many thoughts, so many observations. Okay, first off, Miss Piggy is a mortal. Okay, a child still calling a high calorie human Miss Piggy in 2025. Drop on the clues, Bumps for Miss Piggy. Icon! The irony of it all is Miss Piggy is in fact, she's actually fabulous. He or she who ate all the pie should take it as a compliment if you get called Miss

Piggy. Now my second thought is where was this child's parents? You just going to let this salad dodger put hands on a child? Okay, with the child flying alone, if so, with a flight attendants, you know, too busy to get this pantry pirate off the child? Okay, let me tell you something now, if I was ever in this situation and my child

said something about a person being fat, I'm going to apologize to said individual, but you're not putting your hands on my child to lunch, Shakur, okay? I don't care if you're a woman or not. Alright I'm gonna hold your heavy ass and let my wife get her licks off if you ever put your pudgy paws on my child. Alright did you hear what she did to this child? Witnesses said Crampton began hitting the child with her fist and hit him on the head with a water bottle. Then she slammed the child's head into the airplane window

and I bet it was a bunch of poop butt ass adults recording instead of intervening. Let me tell you something Cardi B. It would have been some furniture moving on that plane and when I say furniture moving I mean I would have grabbed you and attempted to move your sectional shaped ass. That's why you got to teach your kids how to be creative. There is so many other things you can call a fat person other than a fat or Miss Piggy. For example, I've said to lunch, Chacor, right? I've said Cardi B, I'm a hip hop head. So that's why I start with it. Meek Meal. Okay. Run DME. French Fry Montana. Oh wait, Christie was a woman.

So I would say Megan the Stomach or Doja Fat. Oh, I like doja fat. Doja fat hits. But the reality is none of this is right. None of this is right. Body shaming isn't right. But that don't give you the right to put your fat fist on a child. Okay, seriously. How did the adults just sit back and allow this to happen? Am I reading this story wrong? I'm really confused. Was it her child? Was this child traveling with her because they said, Christy Kreme took the child's phone after she finished hitting him. Okay. I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm not really confused about this. Let me tell you something, Christy. Listen to the kids, bro. Okay. If your child calls you fat, don't get offended. Get ozempic. Don't get mad. Get monj. Okay, there are now I do want to say this is a teachable moment

There are politically correct ways to talk about the obese amongst us. You can say high calorie humans You can say higher weight humans. You can say people with obesity You can say wide-body whoops whoops, okay, but the most politically correct term I don't care what y'all say the most politically correct term you can use is big back Okay, big back is not malicious.

He came about three weeks early. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast Betrayal. Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone. Most of all, his wife, Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me. Caroline's husband was living another life behind the scenes.

He betrayed his oath to his family and to his community. She said you left bruises, pulled her hair, that type of thing. No. How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done? You're unable to keep track of all your lies, and quite frankly, I question how many other women may bring forward allegations in the future. This season of Betrayal investigates one officer's decades of deception.

Lies that left those closest to him questioning everything they thought they knew. Listen to Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Aubrey will offer her opinions and expertise based on her firsthand knowledge. From her days on Making the Band as she emerged as the breakout star,

the truth of the situation would be opposite of the glitz and glamor. It wasn't all bad, but I don't know that any of the good was real. I went through things there.

I'm Hope Woodard, a comedian, creator, and seeker of male validation. To most people, I'm the girl behind voiceover, the movement that exploded in 2024. VoiceOver is about understanding yourself outside of sex and relationships. It's more than personal. It's political, it's societal, and at times, it's far from what I originally intended it to be.

These days, I'm interested in expanding what it means to be voiceover, to make it customizable for anyone who feels the need to explore their relationship to relationships. I'm talking to a lot of people who will help us think about how we love each other. It's a very, very normal experience to have times where a relationship is prioritizing other parts of that relationship that are being naked together. How we love our family. I've spent a lifetime trying to get my mother to love me, but the price is too high. And how we love ourselves.

Singleness is not a waiting room. You are actually at the party right now. Let me hear it. Listen to VoiceOver on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Incredible. Worst thing about him is he looks exactly like mom. I just wish my jeans paid a little bit more in clay, but it is what it is. Jess can relate. I was definitely about to say it. Yeah, I can relate because my daughter looks nothing like me. She's nine months going on 10 months and people say the oldest she gets She will start growing into the features of her mom, but I don't see it at all. So it's alright

But I just really want to ask you two things one is Sleep training. I mean you can put that to the side, but like we are getting no sleep Leaves the honest or with us and it's just terrible. Okay Question I'm sorry. Um, he's About to turn five months. Okay Okay, and then my second question Will be just more helpful our relationship, um, you know, she's going through postpartum Neither of us are getting sleep like I kind of mentioned earlier and then we're on a split shift

So we don't have to pay for daycare. You know what I mean? So she's on first shift. I'm on second Only time we're both home is from 12 a.m. basically until 6 a.m. in the morning, and we're not doing any talking, to be honest with you. So I just need help with helping them sleep and then helping us kind of find time and get back together. Okay, so the first thing, helping the baby with the sleep.

The baby is only four months, right? Yes, ma'am. Is the baby breastfed? He's not breastfed. Mom's pumping. I would just twist the formula because that was a lot. Yeah, no, I got you. I resonate. I'm there with you. It could be different reasons. I was going to say usually the baby is much, much more attached to the mom when they're getting that, that bonding with breastfeeding directly. Not just pumping, but you know, just, Oh, is that the little baby?

Yeah. The baby. Oh, he's telling you, don't put all my business to this lady or that. I don't know like that, but no, no, no, no, no, no, it's fine. I'm sorry. That baby only four months. Y'all got a few more months to go. Because although my daughter has always slept that night, it really could just be, I'm sorry, it's the little boy?

Yes, ma'am. Yeah, he could really just be trying to figure out night from day, his sleeping patterns, you know what I'm saying? Do y'all sit around and hold him? Because y'all can't be holding these babies. Sleep, man, sleep, yeah. Mm-hmm, y'all sit around and hold them cuz I can't be holding these babies I was trying to give you a way out I thought it was because of the breastfeeding but if you sit around and hold the baby, which is not called spoiling

It's called just loving then you you have to eat Literally the same amount of time you hold them is the same amount of time He has to be put down like, you know, he has to start putting them in his bassinet. Don't have him sleep with you. That was the hardest part of breastfeeding my daughter and just having a newborn. I wanted her to sleep in the bed with me. That's not safe. Not only is it not safe, it's not really good. Yeah, it's not really good. It's going to be hard to get the babies out of the bed, you know, between you and your wife. And then it's nothing that you can do right now other than just be there because she is more than likely in the thick of it as it relates to postpartum.

So it's not really not much that you can do other than just be there. Just keep affirming her, compliment her, let her know she's beautiful because trust me, listen, take it from me me I did not feel beautiful I'm just starting to feel beautiful again a few months ago you know what I mean so like but these kids suck everything out of you man like she just gave life you know a very beautiful thing so just love on your woman you know what I mean and just stick it out stick it out you know it's only four months y'all got got about four more months to go until she'll probably be feeling,

although it's different for other women, but just give her a break. Just give her some grace, and then I know you get sleep where you can. All right, we'll do our best. Thank you so much. Can I give her a shout out real quick? Yes.

All right, Catalina, I love you. I love Cyrus. I hope you have a wonderful day, and we're gonna make it through. And I love you so I hope you have a wonderful day and we're gonna make it through. And I love you so much. Have a good day. Bye. Alright, just fix my mess. Yeah, thank you. 800-585-1051. Call her me. Your co-worker need to beat your ass. Call it up.

It's Dr. Jess and I'm here to fix your mess. It's getting very much messy. Let me fix it. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Jess Fix My Mess. Hello, who's this?

It's Eli, man. Eli, what's your question for Jess? All right. So I've been trying to get my baby mama back, but I got posted in those groups are we dating the same guy. Damn. Wait, wait, wait, wait, you've been trying to get your baby mama back and y'all are dating the same guy. No, no, I got posted in the Facebook groups are we dating the same guy to try to catch guys cheap. Oh

Okay, okay. All right. All right He didn't post me But it was an old thing that posted me and then all these girls got on there like coming in line It was two proofs on there now me and her been on and off for seven years And I had some women in in there, but I never cheated on her. But it was women on there saying, like I cheated on her while I had her pregnant and all this stuff like this.

And it just like caused an uproar in my life. Now this happened in November and we kind of came back good. But I'm just trying to figure out like how can I gain that trust a little faster. But where did the girls get it from? Where did they get it from? Why would they just start lying on you like that, brother? Let me know, fill me in. Well, it's all about it. You know, like, nah, I'm not a student. I'm at my own home. But like I'm easy to love. You know, like women love me. So like they wanted to be with me and they still had like vendettas against me I guess. Oh okay I got you so they all of them just lied and said that you were cheating? They all ganged up made a lie? No!

Okay. Two of them went lying the rest of them with their salty and I mean a lot of them did say like you just talked like you never went nowhere you know what I'm saying but it was all on that that was exaggerating it It just being thought. Okay. Well, I feel like put everything out on the table. I'm serious. Even things that you think she don't know. Because the fact that women, you know, a few of those women chimed in and was able to quote unquote lie, because you said it's a lie. I'm just I can just go off of what you're telling me. It may have been some other things that she don't know about. And what I have learned in being in my past relationships is, listen, if you're going

to lay it all out on the table, don't hold back anything because something else will come out if it was done. You know what I mean? I mean, I don't lay it all out. In the moment, I lied again about the cheating. But then one girl had proof, so I had to just go ahead and just laid it all out. Now, in the moment, I lied again about the cheating. But then like one girl had proof, so I had to just go ahead and just put it all out there. But do you get what I'm saying? You can't hold back anything.

You cannot do that. You got to show both of your hands because that's the only way she's going to trust you. Sometimes even if the truth is hard, you have to bring it to the forefront. It's okay. And complicated conversations are healthy. It makes for healthy relationships. Everything not going to always be great and sunshine and paradise when you wake up. It's okay.

I think y'all should get through these complications now. You should lay it all out. I don't care if you smash the girl. You don't even by her name Tell her that because I guarantee she remember yours and she remember what you look like You're your girl out one day and she will remind you of what happened. So Lay it all out, bro. You seem like a little player player, but you don't want me to play it no more So lay it all out there I do want my family even though it's we say, you know

Yeah, we'll go get it. But you know what you gotta do do it the right way. Don't don't hold nothing back. You're right How you brother Go ahead There you go. Oh yeah, truck driver. Okay, alright, yeah. Stop pulling up on them lot lizards, go ahead. I ain't never did that. Right. What's that? What you talking about? A lot lizard is pretty much a prostitute that waits at these truck stops for these drivers to come and they get a little ****, get a little something, they get going about their way.

You can't wait to beat the hell out of a lot lizard just in case. I wish one would Just fix my mess 800-585-105 when we come back we got the latest with Lauren. So don't go anywhere. It's the breakfast club. Good morning morning Everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious. Shalom ain't the guy. We are the breakfast club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren. Straight back. She gets into somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything. She be having the latest on this.

That's how the things. The latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit of everything. Well, it's the latest. On the Breakfast Club. Talk to me. All right, y'all. So yesterday, Larry Hoover was commuted on a federal level by President Donald Trump. Now for people who don't understand what that means, that means that basically, and we talked

about this in Front Page News this morning, his charges on a federal level will be like excused or overlooked. But anything else you're still dealing with, you still have to deal with. And Larry Hoover is very much so so still dealing with a 200 year sentence for murder on the state level. State level right? Yeah, state level. So he's not free?

No, he's not. People were saying welcome home and all that he is not free. He is not coming home, he is not walking out, ain't no welcome home Larry Hoover parties. I didn't even know what it meant, that's why I text you on the root land. What is commutation or what is commute? Yes. I believe it was moving from one person to the other. I didn't know.

Right. Chance the Rapper was one of the people who actually posted online. Now let's take a listen. Hey, before I let y'all politicize this or memeify this, I just got to say I am glad that Larry Hoover is home. And I got to remind y'all that he was a political prisoner that was set up by the federal government, that he created the, what was the Chicago votes He did so many things to like to really like mobilize our people and he was really targeted for that

Yeah, so before I get to Kona and I do whatever they're gonna do with this information I just want to say I'm so glad that he's home and I'm God bless his family And yeah, thank God chance are my feelings because he that's just spreading such misinformation And chance is way smarter than that. Yeah, you know you if you just read a little bit more chance You would know he's not coming home, but that just lets me know all chance They would read the headlines there or saw Jay Prince's post Jay Prince of a laugh a lot over in Houston Houston. Rap-a-lot. Sorry. Rap-a-lot. He don't even laugh. Rap-a-lot.

Now this is disgusting. This is crazy. No, this is rap-a-lot. You gotta grow up. Rap-a-lot. Sorry, y'all. Okay, my bad. Oh, geez.

My bad. Oh, geez. Rap-a-lot posted yesterday, and when he posted, his caption literally said, Larry Hoover has been pardoned by Donald Trump. So even when I posted it and people were upset I posted it exactly with what Jay Prince said because I knew people were going to be upset about it because it doesn't mean that He's walking out of not even accurate anywhere today or tomorrow He was commuted. So to explain a bit really quick who Larry Hoover was he was the co-founder to gangster disciples

Which was a Chicago based gang that according to police Um engaged in drug trafficking extortion and murder, which is why he's going through everything he's going through right now Right now we talked to Larry Hoover's son because I was trying to get clarification for you guys on what this actually means And what the state level looks like for Larry Hoover right now I've been speaking on this anytime I was interviewed and I was trying to let people know that he was being held under dual jurisdiction, which is, uh, he's been held under state law and he has been held on the federal law at the same time. So he still had two cases to fight. So he had to fight the federal case and

he still had to fight the state case. So now he's dealing with the state case. I don't really know the law on it.. They I heard that it was illegal to hold a person under dual jurisdiction, which they don't usually do. But they never uplift the state case when they took him in a federal custody. So now we're dealing with state law now. And then when I posted it online, I knew that the natural pushback would be, but this man is responsible for, you know, like I mentioned, there is alleged drug traffic and extortion and murder. So I asked his son, like, this is how people feel. They feel like you're glorifying someone who caused all of these things in the community.

What do you say to that? And here's what he said. People that say that they don't understand who he is. They listen to the narrative of people that don't know what they're talking about. Can they tell you people that he has caused to be killed or that he has said kill or killed himself? He's been in prison all of this time. Right now we're fighting a state case that happened when he was 22 years old when he was a baby and they said that he gave the call for somebody to be murdered and his randy on the case said that he did the call for somebody to be murdered and his racket on the case

Said that he did the murder and he was released that that's what we're fighting with right now, right? The stuff that those people are talking about are here say rumors I'm not saying that my father was it and leadership at one point and wasn't involved in the streets But he's had transformation. I appreciate that. And so what's your call to action? What do you, I saw something on the live yesterday. You guys were tagging. Uh, who was the, who's the person you guys are tagging? Is it the governor mayor?

Um, yeah, it's um, at Governor Pritzker. That's his, it's his Instagram and then his Gmail is governor at Illinois.gov. We want to, um, reach out to Governor Pritzker to tell him to ask him to sign the paper to give my father a second chance at life. So yeah, I mean, Larry Hoover is not there's no Welcome Home Larry Hoover parties today or tomorrow. It's not happening. They're trying to get things handled on a state level. But even if so, what I think and what they're trying to do is they want less. They know that he there there's no way that he's gonna walk free 100%, but they want less.

They feel like it's over-excessive. And as you heard the son say, they feel like he's a changed person now. He should be looked at as that. Okay. Yeah, 200 years in prison is crazy. But I can't see it happening only because of who the governor is.

The governor is with JB Pritchard. He's a Democrat. Yeah, they trying to put some, I guess, pressure on him, get the public to start writing letters and things like that. JB don't give a damn. They were online yesterday on Instagram Live. I was on there.

They were on there for about an hour getting people to tag him and saying call his office. And I'm like, I don't know if that's going to work because Larry Hoover was such a big name. The case was such a big thing. Like I don't know if he cares. And then yeah, so that's it. That is the latest with Lauren. You heading to court now?

Yes. All right. Well, she'll give us an update later on on what happened in the DG trial is the latest with Lauren you heading to court now. Yes. All right All right. Well, she'll give us an update later on to what happened in the duty trial everybody else Let's get to the mix to people's choice mix. It's the Breakfast Club.
