Starting point is 00:06:02 former Memphis officers Memphis police, have been found not guilty in the Tyree Nichols murder trial. They were charged with beating Nichols to death back in 2023, and that was caught on video. Now, Tadarius being Demetrius Haley and Justin Smith, all were found not guilty of all charges. Now let's take a listen to the verdict reading in part. The verdicts read as follows. Count one, secondary murder. We
Starting point is 00:06:27 the jury find the defendant, Tadarius Bean, not guilty. Count one, we the jury find the defendant, Demetrius Haley, not guilty. Count one, we the jury find the defendant, Justice Smith, not guilty. So count one as mentioned in the audio was second degree murder. There was also count two aggravated assault and count three aggravated kidnapping with bodily injury. Also all of those charges not guilty. So while they were acquitted in this state trial, they already faced the possibility
Starting point is 00:07:02 of years in prison after they were convicted on the federal level last year. Now this case, again, as I mentioned, was for the state of Tennessee. How did they come to the conclusion about the not guilty verdict? Because, you know, sadly, I forgot about this case after it happened, you know, 2023 was so long ago. And I remember when the situation first happened, and it was a big deal. But I saw that verdict yesterday and I was like, Oh my God, I completely forgot about this whole situation.
Starting point is 00:07:28 Well, this is on the state level. Remember again, like I said, they have been charged and convicted on the federal level, but you know how it goes with the jury? You know, it's a reasonable doubt. So maybe the prosecution wasn't able to prove this case to beyond a reasonable doubt to that particular jury. So that's how that goes. And it was on video if I remember correctly, right?
Starting point is 00:07:48 Yes, it was. Absolutely, that beating was on video. In other news, the official mourning period for the pope is over and the process to select a new pope is underway in Rome and that process is known as a conclave. Now, 133 cardinals, electors, including New York's Archbishop Timothy Dolan, must isolate in the Sistine Chapel until a new pope is chosen. Here's what Archbishop Timothy Dolan had to say before going into the conclave. It's Wednesday and this is the day we enter the conclave. And I'm about ready to go into the Dome of Santa Marta
Starting point is 00:08:26 So this could be the last time I talked to you in a couple days So folks I won't be able to talk to you until you see the white smoke. I look forward to doing that Keep us in your prayers Yes, so this after swearing oaths of secrecy and attending a final pre-conclave mass at st Peter's Basilica. The cardinals have handed over their cell phones and must cut off all communication with the outside world. Voting will continue until a candidate receives two-thirds majority to become the late Pope Francis successor. That's when we will see that
Starting point is 00:08:56 white smoke rise from the chapel. Until then, black smoke will be seen following each round of votes and the voting resumes today. How long does it usually take? How long is it taken in the past? Do we know? I want to say just if you know as long as it takes honestly Um, but usually just a few weeks or about a week or so weeks. Wow. Why they don't do a reality show They don't have reality shows over there. Oh, no, this is this is old school All we what is it secret society? all we ask is trust type stuff. Man, we can do making the Pope. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:09:28 For the love of God. Oh my goodness. Could have been Pope. You know what? I would have watched too. I ain't gonna hold you. That's what I'm saying. I don't think it's gonna take that long
Starting point is 00:09:35 because the Pope, the just spoke, well not the Pope, but what is he, the Cardinal? Yeah, Archbishop, New York's Archbishop Timothy Dolan. Yeah, he knows the Knicks are playing, so he gonna get out of there by Saturday. Oh my gosh. By what? She gonna get out, the Knicks haven't been in a long time.

Well, wrapping things up at 6 a.m. speaking of people who want to be the pope, allegedly, President Trump says he will make a major trade announcement today in a post on Truth Social. He said he'll hold a news conference in the Oval Office and that the deal will be a big and highly, that it's a deal with a big and highly respected country.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Now he closed the post by saying the first deal of many just over a month ago, Trump announced global tariffs on US imports and in an effort to boost American manufacturing and protect jobs. So there's projection, there's a possibility that this could be China, but you know, I don't know. We'll see what happens. And what if Trump makes an announcement that he's doing a deal with that with that island that only got penguins?
Starting point is 00:10:32 What is that? What is your announcement? I'm like, you know, you put tariffs on an island that only had penguins on it.

So the news broke that we covered in front page news as well that three former Memphis police officers have been found not guilty in the death of Tyree Nichols. The officers were acquitted Wednesday, May 7th of all state charges including
Starting point is 00:22:26 second degree murder. Now, as you guys remember, Tyree Nichols was beat to death and there was video of this after an alleged traffic stop. There was like a lane change violation they tried to say they pulled him over for. Now I reached out to attorney Ben Crump, who is one of the legal attorneys for the Nichols family. And he tells me, obviously, the family is devastated. This makes no sense. They did speak out in a press conference prior to this, and they said the same thing. But my first question to him is, how is this able to happen? Everybody saw that video.
Starting point is 00:23:00 We knew of the alleged, like them, it was not even alleged now because they've been convicted of it And they will be sentenced for it of them trying to cover it up and make things look different than how they actually went down How they will be sentenced for it? Yes, and I'm going to explain that so there's the state charges and there's federal charges So even though these men were found or acquitted on the state level on the federal level. They still are looking at on the state level, on the federal level, they still are looking at witness tampering because of all of the different things that were done in the beginning of this to try and cover up what was happening. But even with that, like in a federal case, they're looking at they're looking at like
Starting point is 00:23:34 probation or maybe up to 10 years in prison, but you don't know until their sentence. But the issue and the reason why this is problematic, even though they are looking at some time on the federal side, is that the constitutional rights that were violated, which is when we have a conversation about Tabi Nichols death and who was responsible for that, they totally are, no one's going to be held responsible for that because even on the federal side, the, the charge, the harsher charge, which was that civil rights charge, leading to death was lessened to bodily injury. This is also problematic. And one of the conversations that I was having with attorney Crumpet

Starting point is 00:26:13 Connie Britton is here. I think you should encourage your friend to go ahead and not be holding out for any man to have her babies. If she is passionate about becoming a mother and she has her eggs frozen and she has her life together, go for it. She could be waiting another 10 years before she finds the right guy.
Starting point is 00:26:29 Connie didn't meet her right guy until you were what, 50, Connie? How long have you guys been together? Yeah, no, 52. 52. 52. I adopted my son as a single mom because I kept thinking, oh, I'm going to meet the guy. I'm going to meet the guy.
Starting point is 00:26:42 I'm going to meet the guy. I finally was like, what am I waiting for? And I did it. And I'm just so oh, I'm going to meet the guy, I'm going to meet the guy, I'm going to meet the guy. I finally was like, what am I waiting for? And I did it. And I'm just so glad that I did. I want to change the narrative about single parents and also help to create a community for single parents so that they can not feel alone in it. One of the big things is it's so hard, especially for women, to ask for help.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Listen to Dear Chelsea on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I found out I was related to the guy that I was dating. I don't feel emotions correctly. I am talking to a felon right now, and I cannot decide if I like him or not. Those were some callers from my call-in podcast, Therapy Gecko.
Starting point is 00:27:23 It's a show where I take real phone calls from anonymous strangers all over the world as a fake gecko therapist and try to dig into their brains and learn a little bit about their lives. I know that's a weird concept, but I promise it's pretty interesting if you give it a shot. Matter of fact, here's a few more examples
Starting point is 00:27:42 of the kinds of calls we get on this show. I live with my boyfriend, and I found his pizzeria in our apartment. I collect my roommates' toenails and fingernails. I have very overbearing parents. Even at the age of 29, they won't let me move out of their house. So if you want an excuse to get out of your own head
Starting point is 00:28:01 and see what's going on in someone else's head, search for Therapy gecko on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It's the one with the green guy on it. The fact that they changed the jury. So the jury that decided on this state case was a jury from outside of Chattanooga, Tennessee. They took about eight and a half hours to figure out what the verdict was going to be. And people were really upset about that because if you think about jury appears to be from
Starting point is 00:28:28 out of state. Exactly. Exactly. So the whole jury of your peers thing was not honored according to Ben Crump and how Tyree Nichols family feels because exactly what you said, Charlamagne and also to this was a predominantly white jury. So you have a predominantly white jury and you know, one of the conversations that I was having also with attorney Crump is you got to think about where the administration
Starting point is 00:28:48 is right now. With Trump in the whole we love police conversation, you put in a majority white jury to figure out what happened in this case. It's just not fair at all. Now another thing that I wanted to point out as well too is that this is very similar to, and attorney Crump was, he's so diligent in how he breaks this down. I wish he could have called in. It's very similar to what happened in the Rodney King meeting when you talk about the
Starting point is 00:29:13 jury and how the prosecutors came in and said, or the defense comes in and says, we can't get a jury of our, like a proper jury if it stays here locally because the people who live here are not Going to be able to judge without a bias and so then you bring in this other jury and it just everything that Everything that you're looking at in a case like this has to do with a lot of the the community stuff Like this is a black young boy. He was there was a lane change that happened. He was According to you know, how people looked at this hunted down by this police unit, the police are saying like you
Starting point is 00:29:50 have the state, the state is saying, well, the police, this was a corrupt unit. I think they were called like the scorpion unit. They're like, oh, this is a corrupt unit. They're blaming them. The police officer saying, no, we followed the rules. So no one wants to take blame for it. And that's why, you know, of course people are upset because with these men, they're not gonna walk completely but just this alone is a smack in the face somebody lost so why you said that a couple times sure that they're not gonna walk completely I don't know that answer myself but according to attorney Crump at least three men will
Starting point is 00:30:19 face jail time and they got to go to Supreme Court to get it to try to get this case done again but my thing is well the Supreme Court do it because will the Supreme Court look at it like it was a black brother that passed Away it was a black unit. So what racism would have to do with that? You know, I mean as far as the jury is concerned No, no, no, no because they're basically saying it wasn't a jury that pairs and white people on it on the thing So if it's not a racial play, how would that change you were asking where they are for a hate crime? So if it's not a racial play, how would that change? You were asking, were they up for a hate crime? No, that's what I thought Envie was saying.
Starting point is 00:30:47 No, so the only thing close to that that was trying to happen is they were trying to get these men convicted on a civil rights related charge that would have been a charge related to his death. But that's what I was mentioning, that got dropped in the federal court. So even when they go to federal court, they're looking at this time still, but it's not going to be as harsh as it should be because that got dropped to violating his civil rights causing bodily injury, not death. And the sad thing is they let this go so long, people really forgot about it.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Like what Charlamagne said earlier, I thought this was been over. I honestly just forgot about it. I can't even sit here and say I thought it was over. I just literally forgot about it. I remember it being a real big deal when it first happened because in my mind, I didn't think, I honestly just forgot about it. I can't even sit here and say I thought it was over. I just literally forgot about it. I remember it being a real big deal when it first happened because in my mind, I couldn't believe that a bunch of brothers would do that to another black man. And we have so many conversations
Starting point is 00:31:33 about we need more black officers who understand the black community, but so much happens in the world since 2023. I really just sadly forgot about the situation. Yeah, and I wanted to take a minute too to shout out Christian Clark from the Biden administration because the federal charges, like the charges that are going to stick, she fought a lot to make sure that, you know, that the Tabri Nichols family would even have
Starting point is 00:31:58 that to fall back on. But why do I, I mean, I'm just asking, I don't know. Why are you so sure that these charges are going to stick on a federal level? I don't think that they, so because they were lessened is the honestly the only reason in my opinion. If they were actually going for what they should be going for, which is the fact that someone died, I don't think that they would stick the same. But they were lessened to the, the civil, violating his civil rights resulting in bodily injury. So I think something will stick but we just don't know for a fact what will and who it will stick
Starting point is 00:32:29 on. But I did ask attorney crumb. So you don't think all of these people will walk he said he believes at least three of the gentleman will go to jail. He just cannot pinpoint which three and what the sentence will look like. Y'all got more faith in the system than I do because if that was the case, nobody would be surprised that they got found out guilty now. Yeah, that's that's my thing. Like why everybody's surprised. But I guess they're saying this charge is a lesson so it's easy to prosecute him. I guess that's what he was trying to say But like I said, yeah, I don't yeah
Starting point is 00:32:53 And as we wrap up the civil case is still pending his family does have a civil case out And Tyree Nichols birthday is coming up on June 5th So they will be doing a big rally just to because they do feel like you know at this point people are not they don't even Know that this is happening anymore. So that will happen on June 5th, so they will be doing a big rally just because they do feel like you know at this point people are not, they don't even know that this is happening anymore. So that will happen on June 5th in Memphis as well too. Alright, well that is the latest with Lauren. When we come back we got front page news and then 106th and Rapport reunion, AJ, Roxy, Diaz and Terrence J will be here. It's the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:33:23 Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get back to some front page news. Now in the quick sports, the Knicks beat the Celtics last night 91-90. They lead the series 2-0. The Thunder destroyed the Nuggets, 149 to 106. Jesus, that series is tied 1-1. And the Golden State Warriors play the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight, but Steph Curry will miss, I mean, Steph Curry will miss at least a week after suffering a hamstring strain.
Starting point is 00:33:56 So, damn, it'll be a full week. It don't make no sense for a team to score 149 points and they're not an all-star team. Right? Those are all-star team numbers, man. 149 points? That's crazy. They had 87 points in the first half.
Starting point is 00:34:08 That's ridiculous. Yeah, that's crazy. All right, what's up Morgan? Hey y'all, hey. So I wanna correct something that I said in the last segment about how long it takes for a new pope to be voted on. Now traditionally, well I said a few weeks or a week or so and traditionally the conclave has varied in length but most
Starting point is 00:34:25 recent conclave says it has taken about two to three days and of course this is day two so hopefully like you said, the new pope will surface and maybe he will be a New Yorker and he can watch the game, who knows, I don't know. And to answer the question of the caller, the jury in the Tyree Nichols trial did appear to be all white so jury of your peers, maybe they were police officers. But you got an all white jury for three black cops. Mm-hm. So back into front page news, the Federal Reserve is leaving interest rates unchanged,
Starting point is 00:34:57 but he has also said there's a lot of positivity around the economy, despite the future being uncertain. Let's take a listen to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell make these comments following the announcement. My colleagues and I remain squarely focused on achieving our dual mandate goals of maximum employment and stable prices for the benefit of the American people. Despite heightened uncertainty,
Starting point is 00:35:18 the economy is still in a solid position. The unemployment rate remains low and the labor market is at or near maximum employment. Inflation has come down a great deal but has been running somewhat above our 2% longer run objective. So it comes as recent economic reports have sent mixed signals on the state of the economy. Inflation still remains above the central bank's target of 2%, not to mention tariffs implemented by the White House remain in place including the 145% tariff against China, but who knows that could be again, like I talked earlier about Trump's announcement. Hey Morgan, one thing they're not going to do is lie to people about their pockets.
Starting point is 00:35:55 You know what I'm saying? You can tell us all of these different things about the economy, the GDP is this and inflation is this, but people know how their pockets feel. That's the same thing the Biden administration used to do. The Biden administration used to say, oh the economy is good, you know, the stock market is high. I ain't got no goddamn stocks, okay? So you can't lie to people about how their pockets are feeling. Yeah, transportation is another one and seemingly you can't pull the wool over each other's eyes. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is set to
Starting point is 00:36:22 announce today his plan for overhauling the nation's air traffic control system. This comes amidst continuing delays at Newark Liberty Airport resulting from communication blackouts and a shortage of air traffic controllers. Now Duffy has offered glimpses of the plan saying in recent interviews the system would have new telecom, new radars and new infrastructure. Last week air traffic controllers screeners at New York or screens excuse me at Newark went dark for 30 seconds. I believe it's actually 90 seconds cutting off all communication between airplanes and controllers. Duffy blamed the outage on a frail system. This comes at the same time that most airports reportedly said that real ID on the first day was smooth. Reports from several major airports indicate smooth implementation with minimal passenger disruption. Officials say passengers without a real ID may still be able to fly,
Starting point is 00:37:11 but will face additional screening and will have to wait in a separate line. Now all real ID cards are marked with a star in the upper right hand corner regardless of what state they are issued in. Patty Mancha who is with the TSA, she's a TSA spokeswoman out of Texas. She says the only way to get through security without a real ID is to be interviewed by an agent. Let's take a listen to her comments. What TSA will do is we will work with the traveler to try to get identity verification. This is not a fast process and it's also not a guaranteed process. We will ask you a series of questions
Starting point is 00:37:47 It's much like a credit check and we will work with you to try to verify your identity So she goes on to say if you don't have a real ID and need to fly She says come to the airport a little earlier than normal and you can use you can also use your passport as well. So hopefully this real ID thing will not impact too many travelers and put too many delays because it does look like the summer season is upon us and I know a lot of people are looking to travel.

Starting point is 00:39:29 Like Sheldon may say, you guys were our childhood, our adult life growing up. Definitely mine. I'm so excited, happy. Does it feel like you've been that long? Evie's older than us. I know. So I'm talking about our childhood. Evie's was grown with grandchildren.
Starting point is 00:39:43 That was our childhood. People can be free in AJ. That was Our childhood. And this was grown with grandchildren. That was our childhood. AJ, Free and AJ, that was our childhood. We was growing as hell when Free and AJ was on TV. What year was that? 2000. Okay, well I was growing.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Exactly. That happens all the time. I'm in the store and people got walkers and they're like, yo, I grew up watching you. I was like, you were grown. That's what it felt like, I guess. It felt like that. It felt like that.
Starting point is 00:40:04 But y'all are celebrating 25 years. Wow. With a reunion at the BET Awards. People always say what era was better, the free and AJ era or the Roxy and Terrence J era? I'm just curious. You know, I think different generations grew up with different hosts, and so everybody likes to pick favorites.
Starting point is 00:40:20 But when it comes to all of the hosts together, we just know that we're part of this amazing family that, you know, was able to be such an influence on the culture that, you know, to this day, to be honest with you, to this day, I still get more people that like are from the 106 and Park family that are now our A-list celebrities and stars that come up here, you know, because of those connections from then that, you know, they still they stick with you for so long. So, we're just so appreciative of the foundation that we were able to come from and build. And there was no platform for black and brown people.
Starting point is 00:40:52 No. Like, no. Like, there was not, especially not a prime time when that was getting number. Not at all. No. Yeah. Not at all. Back then, and there was, it was crazy.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Because we honestly didn't know what we were creating. BET was looking for a host at that time. They already knew Free. Well, Free was already picked. And actually, shout out to George Daniels, George Daniels, George's Music Room. He introduced me to BET Executives. And I took them around, and that's how it all happened.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Took them to a couple of parties, and then they had me audition, and literally like three weeks later, I was on live television green, crazy. How difficult was it for you, because you didn't have any history in that? No, not at all. Not at all. I mean it was, it was crazy. I mean I was getting a lot of hate. You had uh, I can't even remember their names. The morning shows were coming after me. I remember.
Starting point is 00:41:36 It was nuts. Yeah, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh they, oh But honestly, what's with BT? They used to call you the predator. Longhand, they killed me. I got to give it up for Stephen Hill because he had my back. And then long story short, the same dude that was talking about that mess, I ended up running into him at the garden. And he's like, you know what's so funny, games, will you manage me? Wow. And I was like, aren't you the same? And what happened was BDT had just put a big spend with them,
Starting point is 00:42:08 but they were like, they had a commercial to get me fired off the show. Damn. On the radio. Oh, I remember that. Oh, it was crazy. It was crazy. But anyway.
Starting point is 00:42:17 I took care of that for you, light work. We took care of that. Thank you, DJ. I took care of that for you. I'm Google. No, but to answer the question, to go back to this question, there's no competition. There's to go back to this question, there's no competition
Starting point is 00:42:25 There's no I mean honestly these two people right here held it down for a longer time and with a lot of pressure on them So to be able to do that and to hold it down with style and grace gotta like take my hat off to them Yeah, not seamless. Did free and AJ make the transition process? We were gone. So yeah They were already gone. Tigger and Jaleesa were super gracious and Mad Links and everybody that was around at that time were gracious. But it was challenging. We stepped into these iconic shoes with people that we grew up watching. So there was a lot of initial hate and you know. And we came from nowhere because we were part of a new face search, you know, a competition, a challenge.
Starting point is 00:43:10 So it was like, Terrence and I really leaned on each other because we both knew that nobody understood what we were going through more than each other because we never had done television before. I came from a radio background and he did radio as well, but we won a contest to host the biggest show on a network. And it's like, and it's big deal. Everybody need mama more dollars. I had thousands of dollars of student debt
Starting point is 00:43:37 to pay back from North Carolina AT and was sleeping on Fred's couch at the time down in his basement. And so we were just trying to hustle to make it and we just had this dream and ambition. And so to see the show go to where it went and to be a part, you know, we were a part of all these iconic moments,
Starting point is 00:43:56 all of us, right? From when Michael Jackson passed to when Barack was a senator, when Obama was a senator, you know, all of these Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:30 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:37 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:44 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. She said, yeah. Because from what I read, leaving the show was you, there was behind the scenes, like you felt like creatively things weren't right. I'm turning around. I'm turning around. I'm beating like an animal. Online, it was like contract stuff. It was creatively.
Starting point is 00:44:53 It was our decision. But why? Yeah, why? It was time. I mean, back then, no, it was time. I'll just say that. Or can I say, wait, maybe there's a book coming out. I don't know
Starting point is 00:45:10 Possibly so finally get the answer. Maybe I mean the answer was it was time for me personally It was it was time. I made the decision honestly that evening. It was my last contractual day and Yeah, I walked in the you know how they do prep office. I walked in the office all the producers there I was like, it's my last day whatever we prepping ain't gonna work and they thought I was playing cuz I played all the time Mm-hmm I was like, it's my last day. Whatever we prepping, it ain't gonna work. And they thought I was playing, because I played all the time. And that was actually my last day. And it was crazy, because I still remember Mariah Carey's Shake It Off was like the new join of the day.
Starting point is 00:45:32 That's crazy. And that's when I was like, I'm making the right decision. Did you and Free playing at the Delta? I don't know. Okay. That means no. Got you, got you, got you.
Starting point is 00:45:41 Can I say something real quick about Free though? Because you guys asked the question about the transition. Free has always been that girl's girl and she reached out to me because she knew she was like, okay girl, there's the curse of the couch. And this is what's gonna happen and this is what's gonna go through. And Free handheld my, she held my hand through a lot of stuff that went there. So, so nobody get out and all of the girls, we're all close, but like the women of 106 and Park have always kept in touch and like to this day, I mean,
Starting point is 00:46:12 Julissa and I just went on vacation, Kiesha Shantay and I go to the same nail salon and you know, see each other and me and Free Talk all the time. So just for reference on that, like kudos to Free because she really, really, really looked out for all the girls. And for us, she always calls us Free Angels. She's like, y'all are my girls. I'm like, all right, Free. But she really is a girl's girl and really, really, really looked out.
Starting point is 00:46:36 I mean, even to who the best hair and makeup person was. Like, those things that you don't know, especially when you're not on TV, you don't know these things. So yeah, shout out to Free. We're still kicking it with AJ Terrence J and Roxy DS Charlamagne How long did it take y'all to get chemistry like between y'all you and free AJ and also between you and Terrence Rox? Ours was kind of instant. Again, we came in through new faces. So we came in through a whole different Roxy Roxy's really easy to work with in that way though, you know, it was seamless So and again, it was that the world was just different and we were so hungry Yeah to just be able to pay our rents on time and just be able to you know
Starting point is 00:47:15 Do these interviews and so yeah, we were having fun. Our life was changing. We were in our 20s It was it was great. It was a great time when I look back at it Yeah again like Terrence and I were a different situation because there really didn't have to be a chemistry test we were so happy to get the show and like I remember we had the phone call with Steven and he was like so y'all are the hosts and we're like wait what and I had the worst audition process that whole week like it was terrible so the fact that he even got to where where was but so you didn't even know you had you didn't even think that you had it
Starting point is 00:47:49 after I did I have to audition it not at all well when we because it was like ten of us that the new faces yeah and then they picked five to stay on the network so even to have made it to the five I was just like what yeah like you know this is crazy always been a blessing. Yeah. We grew up watching. You never thought. We didn't even know that that was up for grabs.
Starting point is 00:48:11 We didn't know that they were looking for the new host of 106. We had no idea. Ticker and Jaleesa were doing the thing. Do you remember the conversation I had with you when you started? I told you the verse where I do all the stuff. Yes, you did. You were always very you know gracious and very
Starting point is 00:48:26 You know the way you passed the torch you take like every like it was it was a lot of well He took it to another level TJ absolutely Honestly, cuz I remember the conversation privately I've said this to you and I'm saying it publicly like you literally took it to another level and that is a beautiful thing Because it opens up for so many people and I know you you know you walk the street and people like I'm in I'm a news because of you. I'm an entertainment cuz of you You know what that show did probably the craziest thing and it's actually happened more than once I had a guy come up to me and literally almost break down in tears and say he's alive because of 106.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Damn! What episode was that? He said, no, no, no. The Genie was in Kennebec. He was like, he wanted to be inside to watch 106 and all of his friends were on the corner and they shot up the corner and killed all of his friends. So literally every one of his friends died. That's crazy. He was like, I'm the only one alive
Starting point is 00:49:30 So just the impact of bringing kids inside From the end, you know, because the streets are crazy at times. That's like to sit down and watch it I looked up a fat appointment television. That's funny to think about it 600,000 views per episode on minimum you guys were having during AJ and free on 106 a park According to Google that's a lot of people sitting at one time. And you had to watch it because there wasn't no internet. There was no social media, there was no internet. There wasn't like, you know, T-Mobile and all that stuff really was crazy. The commercial, I forget who made the commercial, I'd love to remember because the kids were dropping the bikes, like, 106th and Park is on.
Starting point is 00:50:00 Yeah, so when I was in elementary school, we used to play, they used to play it for us in the cafeteria on a projector. Like, you know, you hear like gym would be everybody's favorite, nah. Lunch was everybody's favorite period because we used to watch 106th and park and eat our food, well, I never ate the food, it was trash, but 106th and park was cafeteria time, lunch time every day.
Starting point is 00:50:21 That explains so much about Baltimore. That's what they was teaching y'all in school. Here we go. Listen'all in school. Listen. And in prisons. Oh my God, the jail mail. There was crazy jail mail. So much jail mail.
Starting point is 00:50:33 You could have changed off of BET. Shout out to everybody who wrote to me when they was locked up. We used to get crazy jail mail. We still do. Like that? I don't get no more jail mail. We still do like that Crazy honest story I was at an event Debra Lee was Martha Stewart was there. I shouldn't be telling this story. And Debra wanted to meet Martha.
Starting point is 00:51:07 And he goes on. Debra wanted to meet Martha. And I interviewed Martha on X-ray a couple times, and I was like, I know Martha, she's super cool. So I brought her over, and I was like, Debra Lee, this is Martha Stewart. And Martha was like, oh my God, I love BET. When I was locked up, that's all I could watch.
Starting point is 00:51:23 She ran out, she was like, Rap City, 106 and Park. Like Comic View. She ran like, and I never almost fell. It was, it was, it was in a hilarious moment. It was a hilarious. How did y'all deal with it? Cause I was just saying before y'all came in, after 106 and Park, the only other place I can think of
Starting point is 00:51:40 that has those cultural moments that people remember good or bad is Breakfast Club. Oh yeah. But now, now. That's why you got the job, thank you. No, I brought that up because I was saying, now we got the internet, so it's like, when moments happen here, it's super huge. With y'all, it was happening on TV,
Starting point is 00:51:53 but then like, turning TV off, you go home, or did you, or not, right? How did y'all handle those moments? Like, I know there was like the Webby thing that happened, Roxy, Terrence, y'all, you walking off stage, Roxy, y'all here together now, we would love to hear about that as well, but handling those.
Starting point is 00:52:08 Protects me at all costs, and that's what I'm gonna say, and I'll protect him at all costs. And I don't like bringing up anything that was like, that's not what I wanna remember from the show, because that's not even worth our time right now. The show was more about celebration than it was about drama,
Starting point is 00:52:24 so those 360 days or whatever because we were a 365 show. You know, it was always there's always things that would happen. But if there's one thing that I could say about this man right here is that he protected me, you know, at all costs. Listen, you know, we're we we're, it's such a celebration now, right? And we'll pivot out. But listen, for me, rocks, like it was, yeah, anything that had to do with rocks, it was always protection thing. But shout outs to Webby. It's love, man. This has been, you know, decades. We're all adults. We weren't growing up live on television daily. Our level of emotional intelligence, our growth as human beings, what we were dealing with,
Starting point is 00:53:07 we were literally growing up in front of everybody's eyes. So obviously we made mistakes. Obviously there's growing pains, there's things that we learned. But when we look back, it was this beautiful journey in time, this beautiful thing that we got to celebrate together and when when Scott Mills and the team said hey we Want to celebrate? 25 years of 106 and Park this year at the BET Awards We're gonna pivot Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, I don't want people to think that was a real thing. About me and him? Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:06 We were blurring the lines of reality. This was early reality TV, right? We were blurring the lines. Me and Roxy were sitting in Steven's office and was like, why don't we try this as a scripted thing? We were coming up with creative. People were talking about it like it was, you know, pop and pop. So it was, yeah, me pop right so it was yeah me
Starting point is 00:54:25 and her have always been right it was never never ever yeah ever ever between me and even to this day like protect him at all costs you know and we never hooked up and the only reason why I bring that up is because Roxy is such a professional that it is. You're such a professional. I appreciate that. Let me say this before y'all ask me, okay? Wait, I think he's getting somewhere. He said, let me say this before y'all ask me. Before y'all ask. Yeah, well, you know, with women in it, sometimes you try to.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Yes, I'm right. I don't know. That's not a professional. Made for This Mountain is a podcast that exists to empower listeners to rise above their struggles, break free from the chains of trauma, and silence the negative voices that have kept them small.

Starting point is 01:00:23 And so Terrence came up to me and tried to shake my hand and I said, I can't shake your hand because I know I'll be talking about you and that would be fake of me. So Terrence sat down, he put his hat on back because he said, you know what? Yeah, I respect that, but it ain't me. Is that really you wanting to punch you in the face

Starting point is 01:00:58 He's a staring guy now. I'm a DJ and I see no shirt on TJ. Yo, go help TJ! Go help TJ! Me and Terrence never fought. If I saw Terrence in a fight now. I would help Terrence. 100%. We left the room.
Starting point is 01:01:10 It ended with a hug. I have so much respect for Charlamagne then and now. What Charlamagne has done is incredible. And it was respect. And I think that started our friendship. It was like we had that moment and then we dapped it up and it was so much respect after that It was me do ball and actually A lot of it was jealousy though. I'll be honest
Starting point is 01:01:37 Like I remember walking up to Terrence one time at the miss this when y'all was in Harlem at Mission Impossible I had just got with Wendy and I don't know why I wasn't appreciating my blessing at that time, because I'm with Wendy, and I'm like, yo, one day I'm gonna take your job. For no reason. You walked up his ass. Wow. You think you're funny? I remember that, I remember that,
Starting point is 01:01:54 but I didn't take it like that, man. When I saw you and looked in your eyes, I saw that there was a hunger there, and I saw that there was an ambition there, and I just felt like, as black men, it wasn't our job to tear each other down I'm happy that you're coming mother New York was competitive and you know when we walked down the street it was like this is a different side of TJ because back then TJ would get into it like I can't imagine that

Yes, so best new artist and album of the year categories. I'm gonna talk about that right here on The Breakfast Club. That's an easy call.
Starting point is 01:04:34 Who? Best new artist is Dochi, it's not even close. Best new artist is Dochi, I agree. If she in a category, she should be in a category, right? So best new artist we have, artist star, Big S to plug, Bossman D-Lo, D-Bills, Leon Thomas, October London, Shaboosie, Teddy Swims, and 4-1, the group from New York. You know, this is a tough category and so many of these artists have been around

Kendrick. Beyonce. I'm gonna let you finish by Beyonce. Okay. Staying safe. Staying safe. Staying safe. That's right. That's what Terrence says.
Starting point is 01:07:11 So that's my answer. I mean, Kendrick has had, I mean, he's on tour now with SZA. How about Kendrick or Dochi? I'll say, yeah, I did not stop listening to Kendrick's album. Right. I'm not even gonna lie.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Especially being in LA. Kendrick, this moment in time for Kendrick, I mean, it's kind of like the one. But I loved Kris's album too. Cannot even lie to Kris. And though she's out. And Glowrilla. And Glowrilla.

Starting point is 01:07:56 What the hell do I have to put out there? Starting a podcast finally, outofthepark.life, out of the park, O-U-T- you tt a th e p a r k you buy so much a what you do to it you're free to be announced oh okay okay not you were free we're free today it's the breakfast club come on Let's get to the latest alarm. She gets into somebody that knows somebody. It was a little bit about everything.
Starting point is 01:08:33 She be having the latest on the latest with Lauren La Rosa. Sometimes you have details. Sometimes you have a little bit. Everything. Well, it's the latest on the breakfast club. All right, guys. so to start this segment, I do wanna talk about if you guys are gonna, or not if, but when you guys gonna watch our interview
Starting point is 01:08:51 that we did with AJ, Roxy, and, yeah, with AJ, Roxy, and Tange J. In the interview, we talk about the best new artist category. And in that category, we had a conversation because listed on the page, Dochi was not listed in best new artist. She was And in that category, we had a conversation because what was listed on the page, Dochi was not listed in Best New Artist. She was listed in the best, I think it was like best album, best rap album category.
Starting point is 01:09:12 And I said- Album of the year actually. Album of the year. Okay. It was album of the year. So I had said in the interview that I couldn't believe that Dochi wasn't nominated for, or wasn't, yeah, wasn't being nominated for Best New Artist. And we got some clarity on that. So I received a statement, because BET just wanted to make sure that we were able to clarify,
Starting point is 01:09:30 that Dochi was actually recognized early in her career by the BET Awards for Best New Artist back in 2023. So now in 2025, she's up for six awards, including Best Female Hip-Hop Artist and Album of the Year. I mean, that makes sense, but you know, know nowadays we'd be listening to artists for years before they get like a best new artist at an award show. That's why I thought she would be on it. I was never confused that she wasn't nominated for best new artist because I've been listening
Starting point is 01:09:54 to Dochi for like five years now. Dochi was on Breakfast Club what three years ago? Yeah well they just wanted to make the point that they're not overlooking her it's just that they were earlier it happened earlier than this year than all of the big hit. So in other news, you guys know Diddy is still in court. So today, Thursday, May 8th, no one's in court, but they will return on Friday, May 9th, and I'll be there as well too. And on Friday, May 9th, they're going to try and cut down this pool of 45 people into 12
Starting point is 01:10:23 jurors and six alternates that they need to begin the trial on Monday. Monday is where opening statements start. Monday's date is, because I know people don't watch this in real time sometimes, Monday May 12th is when opening statements begin in Diddy's trial. Now yesterday in court, Wednesday May 7th, there were some issues with the jurors because it's hard to find people that are either not connected to not even just Diddy in the story at this point, but also to some of the attorneys in the room and the judge.
Starting point is 01:10:50 So there was one juror that took issue with being selected. He came onto the stand and instantly you noticed, like you would notice in the court that there was like a kind of like a little key key that went down with him and the judge. And it's because he's actually litigated some cases with the judge. So of course, he was dismissed and the jurors said like, you know, I wouldn't be comfortable doing this because I think it may make it hard for me to litigate some other cases that I have coming up. So he was dismissed.
Starting point is 01:11:17 But then and the judge kind of didn't really, not that the judge didn't care, but he wasn't upset about that mishap. But then there was another juror that came on the stand, or potential juror, and this juror disclosed the information that they actually work at MDC Brooklyn. Now the issue with that is Diddy is currently locked up at MDC Brooklyn. He's been housed there since September. He could have got paid off, he could have got promised something, anything. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:11:44 Yeah, conversations. Exactly. Yeah, conversations. Exactly. So the issue with that, the obvious issue with that is, is what you guys just said, but the bigger problem that the judge had, and he took a minute to scold both sides, the prosecutors and Diddy's team, because he's like, y'all got to do better. How did he get this far? Yeah, how did he get to the point where he's coming in front of the court and this is being put on record? Not only does it not look like, it doesn't look good, right? Like it looks like there's laziness happening, but also
Starting point is 01:12:11 to y'all, this takes a lot of time. Like we don't want to waste people's time here. So y'all have to do better because there can't be slips. And these accusations are very serious. We can't slip. Things can't slip. Now another issue that they've been having, remember I told you guys about the new black woman attorney that is on Diddy's case? Does she have a name? Because we keep saying black woman attorney. The new black woman attorney on Diddy's case. They built a statue of her in New York yesterday. No, that's not her because, no you talk about that statue of the woman that's a little thick. That's not her. The woman that I'm referring to, her name is Nicole Westmoreland.
Starting point is 01:12:48 And remember I told y'all she's a beast at the cross-examinations according to her career history. Now that was one conversation, but now they're having a conversation about an attorney named Mark Garagos. Have you guys ever heard of him? No. Big business when it comes to this legal thing. His daughter is one of Diddy's lead attorneys on this case, right? But he's supposed to not be officially representing Puff, but it's
Starting point is 01:13:09 seeming like he's been consulting the team or whatever. But he has this podcast that he does, and I believe he does it in a partnership with TMZ. And the podcast is called Two Angry Men, him and Harvey Levin, very fitting for Harvey. Now on that podcast, they break down a bunch of different things, but of course they lean in legal stuff. And on that podcast a couple of days ago, he got on there and called the prosecutors a six pack of white women. Now it is all white women on the prosecutor's side, we've talked about that.
Starting point is 01:13:43 But the issue that the judge has with this is it seems like you are, the prosecutors have with it is number one, these are the white women he's talking about. But it seems like he is working with Puff's team. So if you are doing that, according to certain rules, you can't get in public and say and do certain things. But he's not part of the team. He's not being paid. He hasn't been representing Puff.
Starting point is 01:14:05 Well, he was asked if he was advising Diddy in the case and all he would say is that he frequently, that he talks to Diddy with great frequency. That's all he would say. Question, I don't know if he's part of the case, what's wrong calling him a six pack of white women? Because he's inferring that because these are all white women on the jury that based on race, white women are going to convict a black man because of the race component. That's what he's implying by he pointing to the fact that it's all white women who are
Starting point is 01:14:34 going to prosecute Puff. Yeah, but if he doesn't have a retainer and he's not on quote unquote Diddy's official team, he should be able to say what he wants to say. Why can't he just say that? Like why do people got to be cute? Why can't he just say because of this? I mean, even if he does get to it, and I'm sure that he's probably gotten to it on the Why can't he just say that? Like, why do people gotta be cute? Why can't he just say, because of this? This is what I think.
Starting point is 01:14:46 Even if he does get to it, and I'm sure that he's probably gotten to it on the podcast, I haven't listened to the podcast, that's an issue, according to the prosecutors, because he's a very prominent attorney. Your daughter is the lead attorney for Puff, in my opinion, even if you're not consulting, it's an issue because- But facts are still facts. Observations are still observations.
Starting point is 01:15:01 But you can't, I can't, if I'm doing that on their team, I can't sway a jury's opinion. And obviously the jury are seeing things because they keep getting on the, they are standing and admitting that they're seeing it. I get you, but the jury got eyes. The jury can look and see, God dang, that's a sick pack of white women over there.
Starting point is 01:15:14 And rapping. No way. See, that's not right because the prosecutor could release all the things that they released, but he's not on the team and he's doing a podcast talking about it, and now what's the problem? Cause there's a gag order in place. But well, now I just want to wrap this up because we got to get out of here.
Starting point is 01:15:27 The judge disagreed with Garagos who said that the Supreme Court has said that defendants and their lawyers have a constitutional right to publicly defend themselves. So the attorney shouldn't be gag ordered in anything connected to the city case. The judge said, nope, I don't agree with that. And he also threatened to hold Garagos in contempt of court if this happens again. So he says he's going to be listening to the podcast and nothing better slip. Okay. All right. Well, that was the latest with Lauren. Charlamagne. Don Quijote. Who you giving that Don Quijote?
Starting point is 01:15:54 Man, four after the hour there is a woman named Trec-Alon Price that needs to come to the front of the congregation. And we really have to do something about these false accusations, but we'll discuss. All right. And then after that, Jess Fix My Mess. If you're having relationship issues or problems, you can call Jess right now, 800-585-1051. It's the Breakfast Club. And wait, I have an update for Jess with the mess.
Starting point is 01:16:13 Nobody ever did an update. Now, I usually get updates on Carefully Reckless on my podcast, but somebody had hit me up to give them an update on somebody that called up here and lied on their baby father. So we're gonna get into it, yeah. Okay baby father. So we're going to get into it. Yes. Okay.
Starting point is 01:16:27 All right. We'll get to that next too. It's the Breakfast Club Good Morning. We wanted to know how you came up with the donkey of the day. Tell us! Because you're mean. I am not! What did I do?
Starting point is 01:16:35 I made a donkey of day. There's a bunch of donkeys out here. That is why Shia LaMain is here. We live a life where we bite our tongue based off who made a thing. We never would say it. We don't give a damn, don't throw it home. Hey! Give it to him!
Starting point is 01:16:43 Give it to him! Give it to him! Give it to him! Give it to him! Give it to him! Give it to him! Charlamagne? We live a life where we bite our tongue based off who made a thing. We never would say it. We don't give a damn, don't throw it home. Give it to him! Give it to him! In the words of Charlamagne the guy, he's a donkey. Don't throw it home.
Starting point is 01:16:58 Oh man, Charlamagne, you giving Donkey the day to who now? Yeah, it's Donkey of the Day for Thursday, May 8th. Goes to 25 year old Treckel on price Treckel on price has been arrested for falsely reporting a bomb threat at George Bush International Airport in Houston. Now flying is already scary enough nowadays. Okay, you go to the airport and you just pray to God that you can board your flight on time that the plane takes off
Starting point is 01:17:23 on time no delays and you make it where you're going in one piece, even though it is still very safe to fly. The incidents we've seen this year though, of planes crashing and wings catching on fire, planes landing upside down, all that got people shook, and I understand. So the last thing anybody needs in an airport is a person falsely reporting a bomb threat.
Starting point is 01:17:41 We already got enough real issues at the airport that are disrupting things. We don't need people making up stuff. Now, I could give this woman, donkey of the day for this alone, but no! The reason I'm giving her donkey of the day is much worse. Now, we don't have a news report, right? Okay, let me tell you what happened, god damn it.
Starting point is 01:17:56 This woman, okay, Treckelon Price, called in an airport bomb threat to get back at her ex-boyfriend and also got him fired from his job. In the charging document, it says 25 year old Trec-Alon Price is being charged with falsely reporting a bomb threat at George Bush International Airport in Houston. According to the document, the woman called the airport on January 4th to report that her 38 year old ex-boyfriend, who was flying into
Starting point is 01:18:25 Houston and was planning to fly to Cedar Rapids Airport in Iowa later that day was going to bomb both locations. Lock her up. Put her under the jail and let Kanye swallow the key. You told police this man had a gun on him and a bomb and planned to shoot up and bomb the airport. I have no sympathy for women like this at all. Okay. I've seen too many men get their lives ruined, get killed because of females like this all because you was trying to get back at him. Let me tell you something else, man. This man said this woman Treckel on price cost him a job. The ex told police that price allegedly called into his former job posing as a probation officer, telling his employer that he had failed a urine test for drugs and instructed his employer to fire him.
Starting point is 01:19:14 Then she later called back and admitted she wasn't a probation officer and the employer identified as a witness in the document confirmed that the determining factor in the termination of the X was the communications by defendant and the constant issues she was repeatedly causing. Oh my god. They say hell have no fury like a woman scorned. I don't know what this man did to you but I don't care. Treckelon is dangerous. She don't need to be on the street. She needs to be far far away from society and civilized people because a person who is willing to lie on another person like this Simply because they're mad is a danger to us all this how you get people killed Okay, you are keeping up the tradition of people like Carolyn Bryant Dunham who falsely accused themetilla of whistling at her at a grocery
Starting point is 01:20:05 store. Ruby Bates and Victoria Price, two white women who falsely accused nine black boys of rape. Tawana Brawley who falsely accused four white men of raping and kidnapping her. I have zero. What I mean zero, I'm talking Russell Westbrook, Gilbert Arenas, Damien Lillard, number zero. I have zero remorse for women who falsely accused men of anything. And I am extremely happy this woman is being charged with faking a bomb threat, but why isn't there a charge for falsely accusing the man?
Starting point is 01:20:32 You cost him a job and you potentially could have got him locked up or God forbid killed. You told police he had a bomb and a gun. The fact law enforcement just contacted him and had a and a gun the fact law enforcement just contacted him and had a conversation and realized that he had no intentions to bomb the airport kudos to them round of applause man for them doing a job the right way because they could have ran down on ran down on him like his name was Saddam bin Laden okay this isn't right and it's not gonna stop until these women start facing actual charges for these false accusations and I believe the charge should be based on how big the lie is she tells. If it's a lie like this that could have got someone killed, then that woman should face
Starting point is 01:21:13 a charge that is going to cost her her life. Meaning a charge that would put her in jail forever if convicted and depending what state they should get the death penalty. That may sound harsh but you know what else is actually harsh? Saying a man has a gun and a bomb when they don't. Getting a man sent to prison for something he didn't do. And you know what's really, really harsh? People being killed because of these false accusations.
Starting point is 01:21:37 So please let Remy Ma give Treckelon Price the biggest hee haw. Hee haw, hee haw. You stupid mother f***er, you dumb. Sad man. That is really sad. It's horrible. My name's Treklon. Treklon.

He didn't, she didn't even, she didn't, she went to go have it and didn't even tell this man until after she had an abortion. She went to go have it and didn't even tell him about it. And then he sent me voice notes of her saying some of the stuff that she told me that he said. Like, she was like, now she gay. She said that he bust our window, he bust our window because they were arguing and he was just throwing all of her stuff out the car. And she shut the window.

He like nah, we're not together like I'm not doing it So then she's thought like she she then left town with the kids. He like, all types of stuff. It's still an ongoing battle right now.
Starting point is 01:30:49 And the reason why it hit me up is because he just got hired by this new agency, right? Shoot movies, shoot shows and film and stuff.

Starting point is 01:31:44 We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Just Fix My Mess. Hello, who's this? Hi, it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club in the middle of Jess Fix My Mess. Hello who's this? Hi it's Monique. What's up Monique? Hey girl. So I called in Jess a while ago when you were on maternity leave and it was at C&E and I was dating this guy but it had been like nine months, but he wasn't committing like he wasn't trying to make nothing official so They did when I called it was like oh something like give it time. You know, you still get to know somebody I was like, you know, I'm 39 like I'm trying to like, you know We'll find somebody who wants to be in a relationship, eventually get married. But I just thought it was a red flag.
Starting point is 01:32:26 So fast forward to now, come to find out he messed around with his ex and got her pregnant. So she was pregnant probably six months out of the year, yes, that we were dating. And so now I'm just like, he swears, he's like, oh my God, I'm sorry, da da da, I don't to be with her. I still want to try to move forward with you But I'm gonna be honest like that is a big thing to try to get over like you lied about it You could have just told the truth
Starting point is 01:32:56 like Well, I don't know. I'm just in a weird spot because he really wants to like try to move forward But I just don't trust me. You don't trust them, but you you really wants to try to move forward but I just don't trust him. You don't trust him but you don't not want to move forward with him either? Yes, like in a weird spot. I don't know what to do really. Well listen, you said that he would not commit in the beginning.
Starting point is 01:33:20 That's probably why he wouldn't commit in the beginning because he knew he was still running around not even only with his ex. He probably was doing him with a few other women. He just wasn't ready to be monogamous yet. I feel like he understood that and that's why he didn't. He could have gotten in a relationship with you and then he technically would have been treating you all that time. But he still wanted to talk to you and explore wherever things went. Um, this is a little hard. I ain't gonna hold you. I would run for the hills to be honest with you. I mean, I don't see it wouldn't be anything wrong with it if there was not a child involved. You get what I'm saying? He was still technically
Starting point is 01:34:02 and he told you he wasn't committed. So. So you do the honesty, you take it and you act accordingly, right? But yeah, that's a baby, that's a child. Whether he wants to be with her or not, he has to deal with her for the rest of that child's life. You know what I mean? Exactly. And my thing to him was too, like, and because of that, like, there could be no secrets. Like you, she be no secrets like you she would have to like you would have to introduce me like yeah this is my girl like it would have to be like clear intent like said like in order for me to be like yeah maybe but like you know it's just hard I don't know I feel like I just resent him a lot at this point I just
Starting point is 01:34:41 don't know if. Well you're never gonna be able to trust him. That ex and the fact that the baby mom is an ex, that's somebody with history, that's also somebody who knows him more than you know him. That's going to always be something that's held over your head from her. You know, it's just not... That's the recipe for disaster, girl. You can go down that road if you want. You're gonna be calling me again in a few months
Starting point is 01:35:07 So let that let it go. I know a pool Ain't ain't I know it ain't Trust me, I know very well, I know damn well you will rather be single at 40 than 40 and questioning your relationship trying to figure out if somebody love you like you love them.

Starting point is 01:38:12 So Tyree Nichols when we talked about it earlier We spoke about it and I was under the assumption that assumption that you guys had already knew and I shouldn't have done this That you guys had already known that the gentlemen in the case were already sentenced in federal court. They were sentenced in October of 2024. I had no clue. Oh, see I didn't know. Yes, I'm sorry, not sentenced, let me get that word right.
Starting point is 01:38:34 They were convicted. We are waiting for the sentencing. That's why you were saying that. Yeah, so when I was pointing to, yes, when I was pointing to what will happen when the sentencing comes and how attorney Crump was saying he believes What's going to happen is because they have been convicted but it was a year ago and people in federal court in federal court and in the
Starting point is 01:38:54 Quiddles that we just learned of this week happened in a state court makes all the sense in the world now now It makes sense. Well, you see how she played this. He was like, I thought you guys would have known but you know I really knew that Makes sense. Well, you see how she played this. He was like, I thought you guys would have known but you know About the whole case, I mean no a lot of people did a lot of people did a lot of people didn't even know that It was happening two different courts. So so moving forward. Yes We're waiting for this sentencing in the federal court and then also to there's still that civil case in the Tyree nickel situation So I wanted to clarify that gotcha. Um, okay now moving on Remember we talked about a one-dimensional quickly to Smokey Robinson in here and the sexual assault charges that were filed against him? Yes.
Starting point is 01:39:33 Well, his attorney has come out and released a statement and Charlamagne, to your point, they are pointing to exactly what you brought up. This just being a shakedown for money. And there's basically saying that the claims are false. So Smokey Robinson's attorney, his name is Christopher Frost, says, as this case progresses, the evidence, the crucial element that will guide us will show that this is simply an ugly method of trying to extract money from an 85 year old American icon, $50 million to be exact. He then called out the plaintiff's attorneys. And he said, through this process, we have seen the bizarre theatrics.
Starting point is 01:40:07 And then he pointed to yesterday. So yesterday there was a press conference that went down where the plaintiff attorney outlined all of the allegations that Smokey Robinson's attorney are calling vile and false. And he basically is saying he held this press conference, they sensationalized all of these allegations. And the reason why they're doing this is because you want to get the public involved, you want to create a media circus. And we've seen this before, so we're not going for it.
Starting point is 01:40:34 So I did want to just put that out there because at the time when we reported it, there was no statement from Smokey Robinson's team. So I did want to put that out there. They are denying this and they're asking anyone that is following this case to reserve judgment as the evidence comes to light and the actual facts unfold. And that's the thing, you know, you listen to all women but believe all proof. And we went from the Me Too movement to the Pay Me Too movement. And I said it yesterday and will continue to say it, lawyers that take these cases should be brought up on some type of recall because this is organized at this point, because the way they do it is a shakedown. Like they just said, like that guy just said, they'll reach out to you behind the scenes,
Starting point is 01:41:09 tell you that this Jane Doe, whoever has these accusations. And they don't have the response that they want. That's right. And the response is, hey, a settlement. And if you don't settle, they'll tell you, we're going to go to the media with it, hold press conferences,
Starting point is 01:41:21 give it to all the news outlets, just to smear your name. But the sad thing about it is, like you said, when that happens, you have all your sponsorships, your endorsements, and everything pulls back from you, so it makes you just wanna be like, just wanna get it over, but it's a shake down. Yeah, I do think a lot of corporations have stopped that though, because they realize,
Starting point is 01:41:37 you know, it's just like a circular firing squad. Everybody gets a turn. Yeah, I don't think they've stopped pulling away from all this when it happens. Not completely, I think they just aren away from all this when it happens. Not completely. I think they just aren't as loud about it with certain things. Are they not so gung-ho? They don't do it so quick. I think maybe they do take their time to do a better investigation.
Starting point is 01:41:53 So I will say though that Smokey Robinson's attorney is saying that Smokey Robinson himself is going to respond to this in his own words. Please don't do no music though Smokey. You don't need a song about this. And that they will file a motion to dismiss the lawsuit and they're also gonna address in that motion the numerous aspects of the allegations that don't have any credibility in the issues related to timeline inconsistencies and relationships between the plaintiff and others.
Starting point is 01:42:16 Yeah, and that he will potentially be filing something in response to this, in addition to that motion as well too. So they're gonna fight back, as they should. Remember when Smokey did that rap song called gang banging yeah no but let me tell y'all wasting your time yeah the gang bangers all the mexicans drinking that wine smoking that smoke really doing that coke smoky robinson came into tfz when I was there to do our Christmas special. And I was seated in the little bowl part in the front and he was singing during the special.
Starting point is 01:42:54 And I don't, maybe it's not the right time to say this. What are you gonna say? Cat Daddy? Yeah, what? How'd you go on? I couldn't even talk. He was fine? It's just the aura.
Starting point is 01:43:06 I was like, I get now why they say the artists then are so different than our artists now. I literally couldn't even talk. They made fun of me at work for probably like a month because they were like, I- Smokey, yeah, how'd you like that? You wanted that. It was the eyes. He just looked and I was like, oh my- He looked at you and-
Starting point is 01:43:21 I'm never without words and I couldn't find him for a good two days. You was about to holler at him. You was quiet for two days. I know James was like thank God Is the latest with Laura now when we come back we got the people's choice mixes the breakfast club good morning DJ envy just hilarious. I mean the guy, we are The Breakfast Club. Now shout out to Kerry Washington, who stopped through the show last week, promoting her new film, Shadow Force, which opens exclusively in theaters tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:43:55 Did you guys see it? No, I haven't seen, they did send us an advance copy, but I haven't watched it. But you know, it is a good thing to take your mom, because Scandal was like the new soap opera for a lot of people. So all you gotta do is tell your mom,
Starting point is 01:44:07 mom, we going to see the new Kerry Washington movie and just lie to her and tell her that Sean Deron did it. But let's go back and take a look at Mother's Day. Damn. Well, let's play a clip of our interview with Kerry Washington. In Shadow Force, it's really about what it takes to protect the people you love
Starting point is 01:44:25 from the systems that want to cause you harm, which I think is very relevant right now. But this couple, they used to be part of this spy unit. You know, they were trained killers together. They broke the rules. They fell in love. I got pregnant. So now we have to go on the run to protect our kid from the very unit that we used to be a part of, the Shadow Force unit.
Starting point is 01:44:43 So for me, the film is about like when there are systems that don't want you to have freedom and love and joy. What do you do to fight those systems? Now, if you're looking to do something for Mother's Day weekend, you can take mom to the movies to see Shadow Force starring Kerry Washington Omar side with supporting cast Mark Strong method man just to name a few and you can check it out in theaters tomorrow. I wanna salute to the 757 Hampton Roads area. Again, I mean, the way that you guys are supporting the tickets out there for that car show is just amazing.

Be kind, but don't let compassion become your cage. You got to let people know that their wounds are not your weight. Practicing that is a form of self-care.
