Drop on a clues bomb for doing nothing. Okay. All right. I'm not one of these mixy people that likes to be out here in these streets. I like to be at home on my couch with my wife and kids. And that's what we did all weekend long.
Starting point is 00:04:19 And it couldn't have been more fun. Well, Saturday I was out in Akron, Ohio. Salute to everybody out in Ohio. I was out there with Lisa Rae. It was like a fashion show. That sounds very mixy.
Starting point is 00:04:31 It was like, nah. They call it an unblank situation. What the hell is unblank? It's like an all-white party, an all-white situation that they've been doing all over the country in the last couple of years. So they had like a violinist play. It was really dope. Really grown and sexy and really dope. So salute to everybody out there, Brandon to her. So salute to them.

I told you I was fake watching it. You didn't watch the track meet? No, I saw the track meet after the fact on social media.
Starting point is 00:05:08 And then I went to go. What was I watching? I was watching the news. It's like CNN, MSNBC. And then I looked on the guide to see what was on. And it said like volleyball or single player tennis or something like that. And I was like, yeah, I can't fake watch it. You didn't want to watch that.
Starting point is 00:05:24 No, I was watching. I watched Saturday can't fake watching this. You ain't gonna watch that. Nah, I was watching, I watched the Saturday, I watched Hikari Richardson. She picked up a silver medal. I didn't even see that. Salute to her. Yeah, she picked up a silver medal.
Starting point is 00:05:32 I watched Noah Lyles. I saw that on social media. He won a gold by like, I mean, when I say like the hairs of his chinny chin chin, he won by the hairs of his chinny chin chin.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Now what happened now, because they was killing him one day. One day it was like he lost or something like that. Then it was just a qualifying meet. It was a qualifying meet, yes. But then he came back and won the gold.
Starting point is 00:05:50 He came back and won. I like them kind of stories. Drop on the clues bombs for Noah Lyles. Everybody gets all riled up on social media, start clowning. Yep. You know, and then now what? When I say he just made it, though, he just made it. Like, if he didn't poke his chest out.
Starting point is 00:06:03 You're right. He definitely won. I watch the mixed races. He just made it, though. He just made it. If he didn't poke his chest out, you're right. He definitely won. I watched the mixed races. A young lady from North Carolina. A bunch of biracial people racing against each other? No, it was men and females racing. And there was a 19-year-old from North Carolina, I believe it was, that she picked up a silver medal.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Salute to her. Congratulations to her. And what else did I watch? A couple swim events. I don't know anybody's name on the swim events, but yeah. Olympics. I love the Olympics. It's pretty fun.
Starting point is 00:06:27 I enjoy it. But let's get the show cracking. Polo G will be joining us this morning. Polo G has a new project. Hood Poet is going to be released this Friday, August 9th. So we're going to be kicking it with Polo G. And when we come back, we got front page news. There's always a lot going on in politics, and we'll break it all down for you.
Starting point is 00:06:43 So don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning good morning everybody it's dj nv just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club and let's get in some front page news good morning morgan good morning y'all happy monday y'all had a good weekend yes it was great how was yours my weekend was good very uh lackluster, which is what I like. But there was a lot of action going on with our candidates. So let's talk about it. Vice President Kamala Harris, she did secure enough delegate votes to become the Democratic nominee for president. Harris called into a campaign update for supporters after the news broke.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Let's hear more from Vice President Harris on her nomination. I am honored to be the presumptive Democratic nominee for President of the United States. And I will tell you the tireless work of our delegates, our state leaders and staff has been pivotal in making this moment possible. And later this month, we will gather in Chicago, united as one party, where we're going to have an opportunity to celebrate this historic moment together. This campaign is about all of us coming together, people coming together from every walk of life,
Starting point is 00:07:59 every lived experience, and being fueled by our love of country, knowing that we are prepared to fight for the best of who we are. Yes. So VP Harris noted that she will officially accept the nomination this week as she did run opposed. The Democratic National Committee's vote started last Thursday morning and the delegates held a virtual vote ahead of the party's convention in order to finalize their nomination before a ballot access deadline that's happening in Ohio next week. Now, Harris, she also met with three potential running mates over the weekend,
Starting point is 00:08:33 Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona, Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota, and Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania. She is expected to announce her VP pick as early as Tuesday ahead of a rally. Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg may still be in the running, but they were not in those meetings over the weekend. Who do you think is going to be? You still think you still got your money on Shapiro, Char? Yeah, that's what I like. I like Governor Josh Shapiro. I will say the rally, the rally is in Pennsylvania tomorrow, so maybe there's something to that. Yeah, they said there's nothing to that, but I don't know.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I mean, it's got to be between the three that came to her house yesterday. Over the weekend. Absolutely. I hope it's Governor Josh Shapiro. Yeah, I like Josh Shapiro as well. All right, so former President Trump and his running mate, Senator J.D. Vance, they're still on the campaign trail. They were in Atlanta over the weekend. Trump held a rally at Georgia State University. He wasn't so nice to them. He did that on Saturday while we're vice president. Kamala Harris hosted her own campaign event earlier last week.
Starting point is 00:09:39 So let's hear more from Trump's rally at Georgia State University in Atlanta. hear more from Trump's bat rally at Georgia State University in Atlanta. 94 days from now, we're going to win the great state of Georgia in an epic glance. And we're going to defeat crazy Kamala. Harris has the most ultra left wing agenda of any presidential candidate ever in history. There's never been anybody like this. And she happens to be really a low IQ individual. She really does. She has a very low IQ. By the way, I'd like to congratulate Vladimir Putin for having made yet another great deal. Did you see the deal we made? We got our people back, but boy, we make some horrible, horrible horrible deals and it's nice to say we got them back but does that set a bad precedent well he's recording or he is uh referring to excuse me
Starting point is 00:10:31 uh the uh prisoner swap with russia that we um that was conducted last week now he implored the crowd to get out and vote saying this election is the most important in history he didn't hesitate to criticize harris uh claiming america would end up in world war three if uh she was elected he also blamed her for an increase in illegal immigration any thoughts on that on what on people politicking like no no you know what never mind we'll just keep you let's switch gears on something that everybody can um you know listen up and relate to this isn't this isn't political guys just hear me out boar's head you know the meat company you did deli meats well they're recalling seven million
Starting point is 00:11:16 pounds of deli meat following two listeria deaths one in new jersey yeah one in new jersey near you guys and one in illinois um in addition to those those two deaths, the CDC says at least 34 people have gotten sick across 13 states. Nearly all have been hospitalized and range from ages 32 to 94. So this latest recall involves liverwurst, ham, bologna and beef salami made at a Boar's Head plant in Virginia. So if you're up and down the East Coast, you might as well. And you have boar's head in your refrigerator. You might as well throw it away or take it right back to the store. More than 70 products would sell by date spanning from July 29th to October 17th were involved.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Listeria infection symptoms include nausea, fever, headache, and muscle aches. So if you're experiencing any of those and you've had a deli sandwich recently. Lord have mercy. How do you recall that though? Yeah, that's difficult to recall because people usually, you know, get a sandwich. They go to deli and get a sandwich. You eat it right there. Like, you know, people don't bring that home.
Starting point is 00:12:14 That's a tough one. That's a scary one. Yeah, but definitely, you know, if you're going to a deli, ask them what type of meat they're using. Ask them where they get it from. Things of that nature. But this is a big one. And we're going to keep our eyes on that.
Starting point is 00:12:27 So, yeah, I'll keep you guys informed as to what's going on with that. But if you do have a boar's head meat in your refrigerator, throw it away or take it right back to the store. All right. Well, that is front page news. Thank you, Morgan. Thank you.

Jess is out on maternity leave, so we're holding it down for her. Do you want a piece of hip-hop history?
Starting point is 00:20:11 You could possibly put your bid in and maybe win something that's, I would say, very valuable, but not only valuable, very monumental when it comes to hip-hop. We'll explain when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Today feel like every bitter monday you hear me how y'all feel out there y'all feel like it's monday definitely feels like because it is it is morning everybody it's dj nv just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club jess is out on maternity leave
Starting point is 00:20:42 but let's get to Jess with the mess. ...... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:20:58 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:20:58 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:20:58 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:20:58 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:20:59 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:20:59 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:20:59 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:20:59 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:21:00 ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Starting point is 00:21:04 ... ... ........................... She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it all. And just for the record, for people just joining us, Jess has not had the baby yet. No, she hasn't. But it could happen. Any day.
Starting point is 00:21:13 At any day. That's right. Any day now. Now, do you want a piece of hip-hop history? You got a chance to own a piece of hip-hop history. That's because Damon Dash's one-third stake in Rockefeller Records is going up for auction later this month. Now, United States Marshal Service will auction off his 33.3% in the company to satisfy an $823,000 debt that he is owed. Now, a movie producer by the name of Josh Weber sued him and won.
Starting point is 00:21:41 So he is owed $823,000 and Dame Dash has to let go of his stake in rockefeller records now the auction is set for august 29th at a hotel in manhattan and the minimum bid will be 1.2 million dollars but bidders will be required to pay 240 000 deposit just to bid now i'm sure uh you know jay-z or biggs somebody somebody's going to purchase that, right? Like, you're not going to just let that fall into just any old body's hands. Well, you could. And this is the reason why. Well, you can't make any moves on your 33.3% stake because it has to be voted on. And of course, Jay and Biggs are probably vote the way that they want to vote.
Starting point is 00:22:19 So you really have no voting rights. But not only that, after 35 years years artists are allowed to get their masters back so that means you will have this until about 2031 and in 2031 it goes back into the hands of jay-z so to spend 1.2 million dollars you might as well just wait till 2031 you get it back anyway no what not necessarily what you mean you still don't want it to fall into the wrong hands because what who knows what they could use it for over the next four or five years.

You know who John B. is, right? Stop disrespecting me. I'm just making sure. Don't disrespect me on this one. If you don't know who John B. is, legendary R&B singer in the 90s, this was his joint in the 90s. Don't listen to what people say. Ain't no doubt about it. All right, that was John B.
Starting point is 00:27:59 Now, John B. was on. That wasn't even the joint joint. That was the joint joint. Are You Still Down was the joint joint. No, that was the joint joint. Are You Still Down with Tupac? That was both the joint joint. That was the joint joint. Are You Still Down was the joint joint. No, that was the joint joint. Are You Still Down with Tupac? You crazy. Are You Still Down with Tupac was the joint joint.
Starting point is 00:28:10 That was the joint, though. Yes. Well, John B. was on the Can We Talk R&B podcast, and he spoke about his song because people are sampling it. And this is what he had to say. It does get sampled every year, you know, by someone last year was uh gunna and chloe bailey that's right they put that that that ratchet record out that i couldn't stand
Starting point is 00:28:31 and i wish they never did and um actually never got my rights to do that record either so we gotta gunna we gotta holler about that that's a business take care that's just some business we gotta handle but um yeah i mean you know what know what? It's all a compliment to what we did. He said he never got the what from him? Never got the clearance. It must not be your record, John B. Well, this is Gunna and Chloe Bailey's version of it. Well, he didn't like that too much.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Somebody had to clear it. And whoever cleared it was clearly on the record. I'm just saying, John B. I mean, to put it out to sell, yes, it has to be cleared. And it's not an independent. It's a real label. So they would definitely have to clear it. But he also talks about Justin Timberlake and how he feels about Justin Timberlake. Everyone starts with an influence yeah everyone starts with the influence
Starting point is 00:29:28 um whether you admit it or not you know yeah i mean you know look at justin timberlake he wouldn't be anywhere if it wasn't for me no i'm just playing obviously you know what i'm sorry but that new that new single though is trash and i'm not feeling this music at all drop on the clues bump john b well john b john b don't care at this point he's an og okay he's earned the right to say everything that he's saying right now he died if he thinks that the single is trash is trash it might be i don't even know what he's talking about what song you're talking about i didn't hear it i ain't hear the justin timberlake single i hear it even so it might be but in justin timberlake news justin
Starting point is 00:30:03 timberlake uh he doesn't have a license anymore. That's because the judge actually revoked his driving privileges. Justin Timberlake arranged for a second time. This time, the pop star appearing via video conference from Europe where he has been on tour. He was calm but serious and only said, yes, your honor, a few times. The 10 time Grammy winner pleaded not guilty to the DWI charge he got back in June for allegedly driving drunk in the Hamptons. In court Friday morning, the judge suspending the singer's driver's license in the state of New York until the matter is resolved,
Starting point is 00:30:35 citing he refused to take a breathalyzer the day of his arrest. His attorney, Ed Burke, withdrew his motion to dismiss the case because if the case stood, Timberlake could face the possibility of being rearrested yeah so now Justin Timberlake does not have his license until he goes back to court and we'll see what happens now he can afford a driver he'll be fine that's what he should have had uh to begin with and he wouldn't have wouldn't have had the DUI that's right now lastly could you imagine buying a car and it was once owned by Cash Money Records? I mean, when you purchase a car, we never know who really owned the car, right?
Starting point is 00:31:08 Well, in this case, when the guy purchased the car, he was looking and found a notebook. When he opened up this notebook, it just happened to be Lil Wayne's old lyric notebook. OK, that's amazing. So he decided to sell it in 2019. He tried to sell it for two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. But Lil Wayne's legal team issued a cease and desist, claiming they had no right to sell his lyrics. They went back in court, but allegedly Lil Wayne's attorneys never responded in the court. So the judge actually favored for the person that purchased the car. So now he's selling that notebook for five million dollars.
Starting point is 00:31:42 I guess I just I mean, I'm just trying to out what is uh what is the value in these things I mean I know what type of value they have when you're a hip-hop head but how does little Wayne's notebook appreciate with value over time if you're just buying it for an investment that's what I'm trying to figure out well I would I would think it would it should go into some type of hip-hop museum or but how much is that worth I don't know that's my point five million dollars i mean because people spend all that money on somebody's guitar somebody's first outfit that they wore on a concert so i mean that would be in the same once again what is that worth that's worth something because people buy it all the time people buy these items all the time
Starting point is 00:32:19 just because they buy it don't mean it's worth something in the long run though that's all i'm saying do these things appreciate with value can you pass these things on to your kids in the future and say, hey, this is an asset that's actually worth something? I think you can. I mean, especially Lil Wayne being one of the greatest rappers of all times. I mean, you look at some artifacts and things from Michael Jackson. Give me an example. Tell me somebody whose notebook out there that has lyrics in it that is worth something. I'm asking.
Starting point is 00:32:44 I don't know. I don't know notebook but i'm i mean you look at tupac's jewelry that sold for way over but that's because but people that buy it are actual hip-hop heads is what i'm saying you know what i'm saying yeah like and that's different a ring is different than uh you know the ring that drake bought is different than a notebook full of lyrics if that's the case i can start writing lyrics now and tell y'all that this was, you know, Jay-Z from 1996. Or somebody, you know what I mean? Like, you can make anything up. That's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Well, I don't know. If you want to purchase that notebook, you can. It's going up for $5 million and the company that's selling it is Moments in Time. So, if you got $5 million and you want to spend it on
Starting point is 00:33:19 Lil Wayne's notebook, go ahead. And that is just with the mess. Well, just his mess. All right, now when we come back, we got front page news. Morgan Wood will be joining us and then Polo G will be sitting down with us. Don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Wake up. Wake up. You're locked into the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get back in some front page news. What's up, Morgan? Yeah, I'm gonna tell you what's up. This conversation about Vice President Kamala Harris's race, ethnicity,
Starting point is 00:33:49 it's ongoing. So Republicans are defending Donald Trump's comments questioning Kamala Harris's race. In an interview with ABC's This Week, Florida Congressman Byron Donald called it a phony controversy but went on to say her presidential campaign is now talking much more about her black identity.
Starting point is 00:34:10 Let's hear more from Byron Donalds. This is really a phony controversy. I don't really care. Most people don't. But if we're going to be accurate, when Kamala Harris went into the United States Senate, it was AP that said she was the first Indian American United States senator. It was actually played up a lot when she came into the Senate. Now she's running nationally. Obviously, the campaign has shifted. They're talking much more about her father's heritage and her black identity. I've never seen the vice president not called Indian.
Starting point is 00:34:40 I've never seen her not called black. I've never seen her not called a woman. Every single time they talk about her being the first something. They name those three things. Yeah, I mean, but it is true. She was the first and then, you know, whatever. But yeah, she talks about all of those things. Yeah, she's all those things.
Starting point is 00:34:55 She is all of those things. She is. Yeah. I don't know why we have to box her in to be one or the other. And even those clips from years ago from the Breakfast Club here, you know, that they are resurfacing where she actually says she identifies as a black woman. But this week host George Stephanopoulos pressed Donald over why Republicans continue doubting Harris's black identity, noting that she is biracial. It's possible to be both. Trump during an interview
Starting point is 00:35:21 at the National of all this comes from, you know, Trump's interview at the National, all this comes from Trump's interview at the National Association of Black Journalists, NABJ, last week where he claimed Harris has turned black, to quote him, after identifying as Indian for years. Now, meanwhile, California Democratic Senator LaFonza Butler said the former president's comments were despicable. And she made those comments while speaking to CNN's State of the Union. Let's hear from her. It is an insult. It is despicable. This is a woman who is born in Oakland, California, who has declared and lived proudly all of her identities her entire life. Donald Trump wants to divide our country. The vice president wants to unite us and to bring everyone forward, no matter their identity. When he has the courage to meet her on the debate stage, I'm sure she will take care of any and clear up any confusion that he has about who she is. Fair enough. So she said that Trump's rhetoric distracts from the real problems facing the nation. And the contrast between the two presidential candidates couldn't be clearer.
Starting point is 00:36:28 She adds this line of attack is the only card Trump can play when criticizing the VP. You agree? That's all he got. And I just truly believe discussing, you know, the vice president's race is a complete waste of time. Like, I don't care about someone's identity. I care about my interests. And I look to see the issues that the candidate is pushing what's their agenda and does it align with my interest period what folks should be discussing what they should be focusing on is do we currently
Starting point is 00:36:54 have a healthy enough democracy to have a fair and free election because i believe in november we're going to see mass refusals to certify elections all over the country from republicans and in light of all the recent rulings that the Supreme Court has made, what makes us believe that when all these election deniers in the Republican Party and Donald Trump challenge the results of the election, if they lose, the Supreme Court won't overturn the results. These are the things we need to be raising hell about. Yeah, they only talk about two things.
Starting point is 00:37:18 They talk about her race. They talk about who she dated before and her being a prosecutor. Those are the only three things that they've been talking about. And it's getting exhausting because she's talked about every last one of them. So it's like, where are we going from here? I ain't going to hold you, Charlamagne. You low-key have been calling some things out and then they've been happening. So
Starting point is 00:37:34 I got my eye on it. One thing that I can honestly say we are all interested in is Team USA. That's when we get real patriotic, right? So over the weekend, Sha'Carri Richardson, she came up with, a lot of people will say it's short, but I see a medal secured in the women's 100-meter final at the Paris Olympics on Saturday. Now, Richardson was last off the blocks, and she secured a silver medal after getting knocked off by St. Lucia's Julian Alfred.
Starting point is 00:37:58 Again, as mentioned, that is St. Lucia's first gold medal ever. So shout out to them. Richardson said that a strong start can make or break a race. Let's hear more from Sha'Carri. Definitely been honing in on working on that first 30, showing that if I set up my first 30 properly, it'll carry on down the rest of the track. Start to finish, my only mindset was to execute, knowing that as long as I execute, the race is going to handle itself.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Now, American Melissa Jefferson, she finished right behind Sha'Carri to secure bronze for the United States. On the men's side of Team USA, Noah Lyles, he is the fastest man in the world. He won gold in the 100-meter race with a time of 9.79 seconds, just 5 1,000ths of a second ahead of Jamaica's Kashane Thompson. Now, Lyles wins the first for U.S. in the event in 20 years. Now, he took to social media with a message saying, quote, I have asthma, allergies, dyslexia, ADD, anxiety and depression. But I will tell you that what you have does not define what you can become.
Starting point is 00:39:02 Shout out to him on that. Also, women's basketball. There's so much to talk about with the Olympics. Oh, my goodness. Women's basketball team will finish off group stage play in a matchup against Germany today. The U.S. team is 2-0 so far in the Olympics with the blowout wins over Japan and Belgium. Team USA met Germany on July 23rd in an exhibition game, and they beat them 84-57. So hopefully that is the case again today. Make sure you guys stay looped on everything we have right here
Starting point is 00:39:30 on the free iHeartRadio app. iHeart is the exclusive audio home of NBC's coverage for the 2024 Paris Olympics. The Sha'Carri Richardson story is amazing. The fact that she was barred from competing in 2021, and then you know a few years later she comes back and wins the silver i i can't do nothing but salute that absolutely absolutely and then she had you know that situation where she was uh uh waiting outside
Starting point is 00:39:55 the gate so um between her and i believe jamaica shelly and frazier shelly and frazier actually uh withdrew from the race while i believe uh carry was. She just waited and waited until they allowed her access. And that did impact her warm up time. But, you know, hey, you can't keep a good man down. All right, y'all. So that's your front page news. I'm Morgan Wood. You can follow me on socials at Morgan Media and be sure to catch more news coverage at the Black Information Network and BIN News dot com.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Talk to you later. All right. Now, when we come back, Polo G will be joining us. His new album, Hood Poet, comes out this Friday, August 9th. So we're going to kick it with him when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got our niece Nyla with us today. We got a special guest in the building, Polo G. Welcome. What's up? How you feeling, brother? All good.
Starting point is 00:40:50 New album dropping. Hood Poet. For sure. Yeah, we haven't seen you in a while. It's been a minute. It's been a minute. What took so long? You know, I went through a lot of things, you know, with my music and just personally kept on derailing me i'm actually like glad i went through everything because i feel like i wouldn't have got the product that i ended up with and i feel like it's the best one that i could have had any year that i would have dropped
Starting point is 00:41:16 but what are you going through was it like a writer's block or you didn't know what sound you wanted or label all the above you know about personally? He said personally, was it... We'll get to the personal. Let's talk about the music first. Before we get into the new music... Got some girl over here. Get to the personal. When he said something boggling, I want to know why. What took you so long?
Starting point is 00:41:35 I really... At first, they told me, like, oh, Polo G flipped the Michael Jackson record. And I'm like, not Mike. Like, how dare he? But then I actually really liked the record. Were you not comfortable? Because it was a more, like, mainstream, poppy type record.
Starting point is 00:41:48 I mean, it's still rap, but did you feel like you're going different from, like, your core music? You saying, like, with my new album? Mm-hmm. No, I feel like I was definitely getting back to my core. Because, like, my project that I dropped beforehand, I was trying to be more, a little more mainstream, versatile. Like, on this album, that's why I titled it Hood Poet, because I connected back with my roots. What's a hood poet to you? It's like a spokesperson for the neighborhood, you know?
Starting point is 00:42:13 Person's really speaking on, telling everybody's story at once, not just his. How can you still relate to the hood, Polo? I mean, you live at large in LA, we see you walking down Rodeo Drive, you got a big stack of money. Feel free to pass Uncle Hunnid if you want to. But I'm just saying, I'm just watching. You live at Lodge in L.A. We see you walking down Rodeo Drive. You got a big stack of money. Feel free to pass Uncle Hunnid if you want to. But I'm just watching the money hanging out your pocket. You know what I'm saying? Don't you dare.
Starting point is 00:42:33 I got it. But how do you still relate to the hood? I mean, it's where I come from. I'm going to always naturally relate to them. You know, I still got close feelings with, like, my family, friends, everybody that still come from that. You know, I really come from it for real so i'm always yeah you feel a bit of a survivor's remorse i feel like i do at times though like overdoing for people feeling like damn i know i was in that situation before you ever get caught up in a in a feeling that you have to go back and
Starting point is 00:43:01 help yeah i feel like that's a good thing, having that type of obligation or feeling obligated. What is the acronym for Hood Poet? It stands for He Overcame Obstacles During Pain or Emotional Trauma. So have you been exploring that? Have you been talking to a therapist, a counselor? I tried a few times. Okay. Yeah, I do want to make it more like a regular thing,
Starting point is 00:43:24 but I have, like, did it a few times before, yeah Yeah, I do want to make it more like a regular thing, but I have, like, did it a few times before, yeah. You got to find the right person. Once you find the right therapist and y'all lock in, you'll be consistent. Yeah, that's what I feel like it is. I saw a couple months ago you posted, drugs and liquor help me cope with pain,
Starting point is 00:43:41 but I need better vices. Mm-hmm. Have you found any better vices? Yeah. I really laid back off drinking. I ain't been drinking for a little while. I won't say that long. It's probably been only like a month. But no, I be really like working out a lot.
Starting point is 00:43:53 I hoop from time to time. I like being by myself. I feel like that's a decent vice if it is one. But being by myself helped me think clearly. Now, Hall of Fame was the number one album. Did you set any expectations for yourself when you was working on Hood Poet after having so much success with Hall of Fame? Definitely creating the album and coming off of my album being so big. At first, that was my main primary goal.
Starting point is 00:44:18 But after all the time I went past, my biggest thing was just getting the music out and just making sure it was like the best music that i could put together and really just trying to put my soul into it but definitely early on that was probably one of my primary focuses and then it shifted i saw a lot of people saying uh they was wondering why little tj isn't featured on the album man me and tj we just be having a lock-in brody he be gone like probably 80% of the year. Like you can never really get a hold of him. But that's still my boy. We locked in forever. So y'all be doing records.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Y'all be in the studio together like? Yeah, most of the time. That's like the only rapper that I be in the studio with. Like most of the time, I just send a track back and forth. Like a lot of feature records that I have. I probably have two or three songs with Lil Baby before I ever met him in person. Me and TJ, we always lock in. We got that chemistry together.
Starting point is 00:45:11 Now, you know, a while ago, I gave you a donkey of the day because you were saying that you were one of the only rappers with no security. Now, you got all this jewelry on. And the reason I was so disappointed because I'm like, yo, Polo has always been one of the small ones. You walk around all the jewelry. You got money hanging out your pocket why was you testing the streets in that way polo that wasn't like sometimes i feel like because i ain't always out there people don't know like when i'm trolling or just playing around sometimes like that one no like i'm trying to entice nobody or trying to puff my chest out i was just really bored like i ain't even like you know i probably was four hours away by the time i posted that you know like i ain't no goofy
Starting point is 00:45:52 like that i'll just be trolling so and that's something i've been doing since the beginning of my career is just like i'll be forgetting that i'm at a bigger point in my career where people would take down anything and you know so i that was definitely a learning experience like something that i had to learn to just be more mindful with hip-hop being your comeback project from the break that you took what is like the takeaway you want people to get from this that i really put my all into the project that i took my time with it because this the longest it ever took me to drop a project in my career like I was on the cycle of dropping an album every nine months in the beginning of my career so like with taking so much time it had to be the best that I could create were you nervous doing this album because you said that uh you wanted to stop
Starting point is 00:46:41 your vices whether it was drinking or drugs so without using vices during this or doing that were you thinking that maybe your mind couldn't put out an album you couldn't rap without those vices was that a fear at all sometimes that's that's a thing you know coming early on into my career like i had like pills was my thing a lot and i made a lot of good songs off drugs you would start thinking like, that's the only way I'm going. And then, like, it's really just a thing of... Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country.
Starting point is 00:47:16 I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia.

Starting point is 00:51:24 Bash bam. Another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. to life through hip-hop. Each episode is about a different, inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me.
Starting point is 00:51:48 Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a woman. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise.
Starting point is 00:52:06 Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts find yourself no i feel like now at this point in my life i make my best music sober and how did you get off those vices how did you finally wean off and say i'm not doing this anymore was it a scare was it family was it management or was it yourself it's always myself it's definitely like dealing with the like mental problems that come with it like you know you know when you drink too much and then it's like you're trying to pull yourself out of that depression or that darkness like going through that not wanting to be in that space again is what really made me stray
Starting point is 00:52:45 away from it. You think you're trying to escape something? Because, you know, when I listen to a record like, you know, Barely Holding On, and you're like, you know, death in the air, that shit will leave you with a chilled spine, even though my spirit's down. Like, I'm okay. I feel fine. Shots from that Steel Nine.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Aim from that hillside. I'm from the trenches where they just murder just to kill time. Like, it feels like you're dealing with some real dark stuff on this album. So you feel like you was doing all that just to try to kill time like it feels like you feel like you're dealing with some real dark stuff on this album so you feel like you was doing all that just to try to escape for sure for sure i feel like that's it go hand in hand with the the just a rapper lifestyle too why you may indulge in certain things but i definitely feel like it's an escape thing sometimes too yeah because on turning back you say i need some therapy it's like you literally say that for sure so you you're clearly self-aware that there's something going on yeah
Starting point is 00:53:29 for sure and even now having a conversation even talking to you now i feel like mentally you might be somewhere else you got a lot on your mind always though that's that's that's just me does it make these press runs even more difficult because you know you got to go out here and promote the album but then you're dealing with real life issues as well press runs gonna be a little difficult to me because i ain't really like a person that like to talk so we know also on no turning back uh you talk about how you gave your heart to the streets and got nothing in return where would you say your heart is now my heart right now is with my family my my son. I love my son a lot. And that's why I want to, I wouldn't say shift my focus, but like be more attentive in that area.
Starting point is 00:54:11 How old is your little man? He's five. Oh, okay, okay. How has fatherhood changed you? Because you're young, Polo. So you're the young pops. Yeah. It changed me for the better, for sure. It be teaching me patience. I'm a very impatient person, but dealing with my son helped me learn to be more patient and just see the beauty in life for real. All right, we got more with Polo G. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:54:36 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

I want to stay on the turning back record because you talk about your brother and you said, I miss my broski through it all.
Starting point is 00:54:52 You was there for me. How was his absence affecting you on a day-to-day basis? And just what he's going through because he was charged with murder, right? Yeah. I wasn't even talking about my blood, brother. I was talking about my homie um b money who passed away in 2021 oh wow okay but definitely my my little brother you know we
Starting point is 00:55:12 was tight we was close so i i speak to him i'd be missing him a lot though that's like that was my dog i mean that is my dog um and letter for my pops you're talking about how you don't want to let your son down like that is one of your biggest fears. But I feel like, you know, you did have your kid once you got money, you up. What is the fear that you can take care of yourselves, you can take care of your family? I just know how important it was to me, like, for my father to be there for me. And definitely just being there for my son, an important thing for me. Because I know how much it counts
Starting point is 00:55:45 to put that time in. My pops was there for me for everything, every little point in my life. Making sure we did our homework, something as simple as hanging your jacket up, playing catch with you
Starting point is 00:55:55 in the backyard. That's things a kid going to remember more than me being able to pay for anything for my son. Yeah. So it's important for you
Starting point is 00:56:02 to give your dad his flowers while you're still there. For sure. And that's him on the record too. Yeah. That's him. That's cool. for anything for my son yeah so it's important for you to give your dad his flowers while for sure and that's him on the record too yeah that's him yeah that's cool what else did you learn from your pops like i really want to know like how to how to having a father figure keep you from really you know succumbing to the streets of chicago my pops he a real really wise person you know he always gonna give you the pros and cons to any situation somebody that's real easy to talk to i feel like he kept me away from or out of trouble a lot of times a lot of times you know or just
Starting point is 00:56:31 being that voice of reason you know when you're having uh conversations with your son or interactions with your son what do you do that you like damn that was my pops my pops did this for me like it's a lot of things i do i feel like it's similar to my pops. We almost like the same person. I see that in them. Yeah, I think I do. What's your relationship now with your mother, Station Mack? Because she was your manager.
Starting point is 00:56:54 She's not no more, though, right? No, she's not my manager no more. You know, that's my mom. I always love my mom. You just probably ain't in the best space right now on communicating terms, but that's my's my og i'm always damn how did you find your mom's how did that conversation go that had to be a tough one it was just a mutual thing you know it wasn't really nothing to it michael and joe janet and
Starting point is 00:57:16 joe still gotta be a call conversation because that's moms like yes she go hard for you though she do like hard do y'all still communicate now? Not often, no. But it's still communication there. It's just not like how it used to be. But I feel like that's just a rough patch in our relationship that it get back to where it was. When you see family public issues spill over to social media, like, you know, everybody saw the situation
Starting point is 00:57:39 between your mom and your sister, do you intervene or do you let them work that up? For sure, I'm always intervening. It's like I don't want to see no s*** like that. I'm always trying to get in between and before it go too far. What do you mean go too far? They was fighting and shooting at you. This is Chicago.
Starting point is 00:57:55 You're in Chicago. I might have to start adding Chicago with Florida. He said before it go too far. It was too far. They was fighting and shooting, Polo. See, that's normal to Chicago people. That is definitely normal to Chicago people. That is definitely normal to Chicago people. That was crazy.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Is it even something that can be worked out, you think? Yeah, for sure. We family. I mean, I feel like because of who I am, it's just being broadcasted more and like everybody going to talk about it. Everybody's family go through. That's what I'm accustomed to. Minus the shooting. broadcast it more and like everybody gonna talk about like every everybody's family go through
Starting point is 00:58:25 like that's accustomed to i'm like no minus the shooting no that's normal to him and how do you intervene because you can't pick a side it's like you almost got to just try to put them both in the room and be like let's have this conversation yeah that's that's definitely the angle to take because my sister a pretty hair strong person she uh she her mother child you know you definitely gotta be there have you tried that yet have you tried to have them the angle to take because my sister a pretty headstrong person. She her mother child, you know. You definitely got to be there. Have you tried that yet?
Starting point is 00:58:48 Have you tried to have them work it out on the phone first, of course, because you don't want them in the room yet, but to try to get their feelings out and squash it
Starting point is 00:58:54 because they mom and daughter. It's something that I want to get around to, but I'm definitely letting them breathe a little bit more right now. I just like the energy that y'all brought.
Starting point is 00:59:03 I always liked the cap a lot. I liked watching y'all as a family unit. You what i'm saying i just thought that was dope mom helped managing the rapper son i just thought that was dope now you mentioned you grew anti-social and you said it's all it's y'all's fault who is y'all i ran through a lot of different friends or just like people i was associated with and it's like I always go through a phase of having to cut off a lot of different people a lot of people came and went in my life but like that keep me even more standoffish than I was before to be fair you also are evolving as an artist and then you know in personal life and then like public persona too so some people are just there to get you to your
Starting point is 00:59:46 next phase yeah but um i want to talk about your creative process within this project can you describe because you said this is the longest you know that it took for you to put this together what was it like did you create on beat you know was it more like poems because it is hood poet like what was that i was locked in with a producer. I was locked in with Southside from 808 Mafia. Fire. And we had locked in for like two months. And we made like a large bulk of the album in them two months.
Starting point is 01:00:16 Like probably like, let's say, eight or nine of the 18 songs that's on there. So we was just building that chemistry and really went from there. Who else was on the project besides 808? He got a team of producers. Oh, fire. So, Smat is one of his producers
Starting point is 01:00:31 that I work real closely with. And ATL Jacob on there. I got Oz from Chicago. He on there. I got a lot of producers on there, though. Check the credits. Check the credits.
Starting point is 01:00:41 Who did We A Shoot? That was Southside. I'm sure that's not how you pronounce it. I'm sure that's not it. We A Shoot. I'm sure that's not it. But that is how it's spelled did We A Shoot? That was Southside. I'm sure that's not how you pronounce it. I'm sure that's not it. We A Shoot. I'm sure that's not it. But that is how it's spelled.
Starting point is 01:00:48 We A Shoot. I'm sure. I don't know what accent that was. Why did y'all name it that? Because they A Shoot. It's not Mad Jamaica. I don't know what accent that was. We A Shoot.
Starting point is 01:00:57 I don't know what that was. That's how I talk. I ain't want to put Will. I think that would have sounded weird or it would have been a weird title. That's in the hook. We got the guns, we'll shoot. No, I ain't worried about what he'll do. Are you ever nervous about that, seeing what's going on with Young Thug?
Starting point is 01:01:13 Put stuff like that around, like, damn, I wonder if they could ever use this against me at any time. I'm not worried because I'm not doing nothing. Okay. Well, you did get arrested back in April, Polo. There was a loaded firearm in a hotel room i don't know if it was yours but all right got you okay okay anti-social you want to tell guys see here's the thing for coming from the street you are you are a legitimate businessman now so if it's not yours i feel like it's okay to say it's not mine
Starting point is 01:01:43 you may not have to say whose it is. But it ain't mine. Polo G, your counselor would say don't say anything until the court dates. All right, we got more with Polo G when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 01:01:59 We are The Breakfast Club. Nyla is hanging with us this morning as we kick it with Polo G. Charlamagne? Did you see the discussion that Vlad TV was having? What he was talking about he got concerns about you because he feels like you might have one foot in the street still. What are your thoughts about people who have those
Starting point is 01:02:13 concerns? Like I said, I think they shouldn't have that concern at all because I'm not doing, I go home after I come from the studio and I don't really, ain't nothing too much going on in my life i'm just you know i'm just a rapper i feel like uh you know brothers who survived the streets of chicago they're they're literally like actual soldiers just because of everything that they've
Starting point is 01:02:36 experienced the trauma the ptsd and stuff so so is it hard finding happiness now because you live a great life but is it hard actually being happy because of all the traumas of your past and and things you might still be dealing with now i feel like i cope with it with that stuff pretty well because like it's it like like how we were saying earlier it do it is something that become regular like i don't really be too throwed off by like death or nothing no more so i'd be really able to accept a lot of that stuff now but i do have those moments of survivor's remorse or just like my trauma's catching up to me sometimes but i feel like all in all i i cope with it well i mean i i got advice that i didn't really touch on is music though like
Starting point is 01:03:18 i'm always had that in my pocket to be able to deal with my problem are you accepting of it or just numb to it that's the difference right like learning to accept something and just being numb to it a little bit of both you said music is one of your vices what are some of the things you listen to to cope like artists or even decade i like all type of music i'm always on youtube i like r&b music or just like i wouldn't even consider it on because like what what category like sexy drill fall under that's like rap and r&b what the hell is sexy drill it's r&b but drill because i like that k lani song yeah yeah yeah that was great i'm killing the no no the name of the song is i'm saying but they call it sexy drill why because you killing no not killing her literally got to talk to unks sometimes that's sexy that's sexy the woman it's called sexy drill we didn't
Starting point is 01:04:12 name it men named it well now if you was with a man oh and y'all was setting the mood no do not put that on what are we even doing Polo you out here setting the mood the sexy drill no not I really don't really like that term like that but I just rock
Starting point is 01:04:31 with it you like the sound yeah I like the sound now Vlad also you FaceTimed him you said you wanted to meet up with him
Starting point is 01:04:38 face to face like what where did all that start from like what is the issue cause you called him the feds um
Starting point is 01:04:43 Vlad man it was really a situation where I came across him and Ack having a sit down and my name came up. And Vlad had an issue with me making a tweet, responding to a tweet that somebody made about him being the police. This before I ever seen the interview about him being the police this before i ever seen the interview about him being the police and i and i said some along the lines like i agree you know and then we end up seeing each other in the bank he chopped it up with me i really left it alone i ain't never say nothing about him since but like the way he was talking in the interview with
Starting point is 01:05:20 act is like he was i don't know like he still felt the way and he's saying that he that I didn't never respond to him for an interview and it's like he just fake got to going in and I didn't really understand that from a person who had an issue with me speaking on him publicly so that's really where my issue came from and I'm trying I'm trying to talk to him like a man like it ain't really one no more to it but then he trying to remind me he 50 you should have known that before he's speaking on me though have y'all had an actual meeting no he don't they ran into each other at the bank yeah yeah he well i ran into him at the bank so you pulled up on him but he said hey i'm glad or did you know it was him as soon as you see him nobody knows i was in the line
Starting point is 01:06:03 at the bank he that's like during covid time he got his mask on but i'm like you know it was him as soon as you see him nobody know i was in the line at the bank he this like during covid time he got his mask on but i'm like you know i look back at him and i smile that's when he was willing to engage in conversation i guess and we really it wasn't really nothing we just chopped it up about like how why he felt the way you said you also said in the song um you can't relapse off these drugs, R.I.P. to Juice. You really took your last perk with Juice? Because you said that in the red. You said, I popped my last one with you. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:29 Yeah. I haven't did that since. Really? How long ago was that? Like five years ago. Okay. Okay. You remember that last experience outside of just the drugs?
Starting point is 01:06:38 Yeah. I remember my last time just kicking it with Juice, period. He used to stay 15 minutes away from me so i pulled up on i used to pull up on him a lot of time he hit me like yo bro just pull up on me today we don't we didn't record music a lot of those times i just we were just kicking it together so that was one of those days what did juice mean to the city a lot juice man he like no he a rock star like he different he really separated himself from the rest of the pack feel like he definitely one of a kind a lot of people appreciate him and there's and it's like
Starting point is 01:07:09 a dope thing like people coming from a lot of different upbringings that's able to like support or rock with juice because like some of his music you would hear it and you wouldn't naturally think people in the hood to play this but like like, people, everybody rock with Juice WRLD. Now, you also got the, you got a September 18th reference on the album. Is that related to your, your late friend who passed away in Chicago?
Starting point is 01:07:32 No, yeah, that's one of my other homies, though. My homie, his name was T. Gucci. He passed away, he passed away,
Starting point is 01:07:39 I was 15, he was 16. Yeah, he got killed, right? Yeah, he got killed. Yeah. Damn,
Starting point is 01:07:44 how much, how much death have you experienced? You even know what grief feels like? I know what grief feels like. I dealt with death closely a lot since I was a little kid. Like my first encounter with death for real or a murder, my uncle died in a shootout. I was nine years old. That was my first real experience dealing with that.
Starting point is 01:08:06 And ever since then, that's like what I've been going through. So you don't feel pain anymore. It's just, it feels natural now. I mean, I definitely feel pain still. I'm a human, but I just don't really read too much into it because I know people live in certain lives. This is what come with it. What do you feel your duty is to your community?
Starting point is 01:08:25 Is it to make records like we just shoot? is it to say, you know what, I gotta say something to help the next generation be better? I definitely, in my music, I definitely dabble between the two. But if you know Polo G as an artist, like most of the time I'm speaking on the problems or like telling you how this messed up or that I could connect with you on a level where I've been through something too. I feel like my main priority though, my community specifically is just getting a hold of the kids you know like everybody who's been in the streets or half their own path and they adults like it's hard to patch
Starting point is 01:08:57 them relationships up like us you know people pushing peace now and trying to patch them but like everybody ain't gonna have that same mindset it's the best thing to do is go get get a hold of the youth before they get too deep into all right some type of issue because once once once bodies start dropping it's hard to just go back and she's like yeah okay we good now yeah yeah i totally get it well let's get into a joint off the album what's the one what's the one what's the single uh we a shoot oh lord oh lord oh lord have mercy

Starting point is 01:10:07 On The Breakfast Club. She's a culture shift. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it all. Drake is the Malcolm X of white people. That sounds about right to me. I don't know why, but I just like the way that sounds. No, stop it. The Malcolm X of white white people let me tell you where this came from so dj mustard
Starting point is 01:10:28 uh released the album last week uh dj mustard's faith of mustard seed well academics posted that he sold 18 000 units in the first week with a fiery emoji and mustard thought he was playing with him so mustard responded on instagram or whatever, which one it was on social media. He said, album sales are a form of white supremacy. You iggers racist. Then he said, these Drake bots are the nation of drizzling.
Starting point is 01:10:53 The bots are trying to fade me. I'm not mad. I'm at my son's basketball game. They were souping and they just won. I figured I fade some bots. I'm still grateful. A bot could never make me ungrateful. Then he says, Drake is thecolm x of white people and academics make sure you post gordo season
Starting point is 01:11:10 first week since drake thought he did a thing by making him drop on the same day is he saying that like uh like that he's like he's that he's that much of a hero the white people that's what he's saying yes okay yes i get what you said yeah that I guess that's what Mustard meant by it. But shouldn't we stop saying record sales? Isn't 18,000 sales, I don't know, hundreds of millions of streams? Yes. Shouldn't it be worded different nowadays? Shouldn't it be like, he had such and such amount of streams? Yeah, but the bad thing about how many units you sell in your your first week it really doesn't
Starting point is 01:11:45 matter because like you said it streams if a record continues to stream it's considered more and more and more and more sales so i don't know why they why people still care about it so much but people definitely do ice by she uh did 20 000 last week and she had major records so i mean it really doesn't matter but that translates to how many millions of screams like hundreds of millions of screams correct so yeah i mean i don't know yeah thank god i'm not in the record business so that was uh dj mustard now the game he talks about being a old father and the reason i say old father he appeared on the tacos and trauma podcast and he was talking the fact that he's currently 44 and is expecting a child this is what he had to say then i heard you're expecting kids and twins twins is yeah you gotta stay off the internet right yeah i'm
Starting point is 01:12:31 expecting one one child is your country falling apart feeling tired depressed a little bit revolutionary consider this start your own country i planted the flag i just kind of looked out of like this is mine.

Starting point is 01:16:20 Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records.
Starting point is 01:16:43 Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap is another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama
Starting point is 01:17:04 who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Congratulations. Thank you. How do you feel about that?
Starting point is 01:17:41 I think about it in terms of years. I'm 44. So when my new child is 21, I'll be 65, right? And that seems kind of old until you start thinking about who's 65 now. But I think at the end of the day, it's new life. It's going to be a different parenting experience for when I was younger. So when I was younger, I was still hardhead in the streets. And I don't know how i even made it to this point in my life doing the things that i was doing it'll just be interesting to parent at this age that's exactly how i look at it because you know i i had uh let me see yeah 44 i got a two-year-old yeah i'm 46 now yeah i got a two-year-old mine will be three in november and i think just like that, I think, okay, in 20 years, she'll be 22 and I'll be 66.
Starting point is 01:18:30 Yeah. Steve Harvey's 67. I'm good. Yeah. Okay. That's the way I look at it. You like me how I look at it. Game has three kids.
Starting point is 01:18:37 He has a 13-year-old, a 16-year-old, and a 20-year-old. So, yeah, but that's how it is. But, I mean, the way he raises the children would be a lot different because, course like he said when he was younger he was dumber there was a lot of things he didn't know i'm sure he didn't have patience and now with this this this new young one uh it'll be a lot different and he's rumored to be having a child with evelyn lazada's daughter right now he also talks about that lawsuit uh which you know game has to pay i think it was like eight million dollars he lost well he talks about that lawsuit as well and i got all kind of suing falsely and doing this and doing that and all that but it's but it's cool i don't even harbor no hate towards her just what is the
Starting point is 01:19:14 resolution because i can't i just can't why didn't you go to the court thing that was a party so i had an orthodontic surgery i thought that that would be you know that would suffice but it didn't they could have just pushed it a week but they didn't but why be you know that would suffice but it didn't they could have just pushed it a week but they didn't but why would you chance that because i didn't give a i was younger this is 10 years ago all the appeals we've exhausted all that and at the end of the day man like in her heart of hearts she knows that i didn't violate her and she knows how much she was like on me and i still wasn't given what it what i think it's horrific yeah the sad thing about that is that's why we have attorneys and his attorney should have went to that court date
Starting point is 01:19:50 and asked to get it pushed back or whatever it may be especially if he was having uh orthodontic surgery you know now also game said in a post he said any egger that smokes hookah in 2024 can jump up and land in the splits he said that can. Can you do a split, Envy? Shut up. Because you definitely smoke hookah. Shut up. Saucy Santana said you was gay. I'll never forget that.
Starting point is 01:20:11 Drop on the clue box of Saucy Santana. He did not say I was gay. Saucy Santana said any man who smoked hookah is gay. He didn't say I was gay. Then he posted a picture of you smoking a hookah. No, because you posted a picture and added him and he reposted it. Why would I do something like that?
Starting point is 01:20:23 Because you're you. I don't even sound like that and I would do. Everybody knows that's what you did. All and added him, and he reposted it. Why would I do something like that? Because you're you. I don't even sound like that, and I would do. Everybody knows that's what you did. All right, now, and lastly, shout out to 50 Cent. You know, we'll be in Shreveport, Louisiana this week. He's doing his Humor in Harmony weekend, and we're bringing the car shows down here. So if you're in the surrounding cities, make sure you pull up on us all weekend long in Shreveport. But 50 wins, it says, a billion-dollar lawsuit.
Starting point is 01:20:42 So let me tell you what happened now judge torres ruled in favor of 50 cent and a 1 billion dollar lawsuit brought against him by former drug kingpin cory goes holland now uh cory believes that the whole power uh series is based off of his life and was suing for a billion dollars and the judge ruled that no it's not true it wasn't based on his life so 50 responded on instagram he said fool thought he was ghost the f wrong with these ninjas man laugh out loud so 51 that lawsuit so he won't have to be paying any money for that oh god bless and that is why would he think he was ghost for real though like i got what what did he see in that show that made him say that's my life well i guess his
Starting point is 01:21:26 nickname is ghost so maybe he thought it was based off his life but man ain't nothing about power realistic fantastic show okay anybody that was moving like that in real life would have got caught a long time ago long time ago okay tommy had the same car at the scene of every crime okay cut it out yeah so uh he lost that and 50 won't have to pay that billion dollars all right now when we come back we got donkey today who you give me a donkey too man there's a police officer named zachary hyde who needs to come to the front of the congregation this morning we'd like to have a word with him uh today's lesson kids is about irony okay okay all right we'll get to that next it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club your mornings will never be the same Irony. Okay? Okay. All right. We'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:22:05 Your mornings will never be the same. Some donkey today has just sold himself. What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up?
Starting point is 01:22:13 What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up? What's up?

Dog year today for Monday, August 5th, goes to an Arizona police officer named Zachary Hyde. Now, it's a teachable moment in this story, and the teachable moment is simply about irony. Life is too ironic, okay?
Starting point is 01:22:44 It takes sadness to know what happiness is. Noise to appreciate silence. Absence to value presence. Fergie singing the national anthem to appreciate Whitney Houston singing the national anthem. Dry vagina to appreciate that gush gush. I'm just trying to paint a picture for you to let you know that life is ironic. And you will immediately understand the irony in the story when you hear it. Let's go to AZ Family 3 TV for the report, please.
Starting point is 01:23:09 Tempe officer honored with the Hero Award at the annual Mothers Against Drunk Driving Banquet a month ago was just arrested for DUI. State troopers pulled over Officer Zachary Hyde early Wednesday morning. He was off duty. He's on admin leave now pending a full internal investigation hey officer zachary hyde a police officer honored by mad only to get caught driving under the influence after being honored y'all know what mad is right the mothers against drunks driving who fight tirelessly to prevent drunk driving and support victims
Starting point is 01:23:43 of the reckless behavior we call driving drunk. You, Zachary, were Officer Jekyll when you got honored, but you became Officer Hyde when you got that 80 proof potion in you. OK, Zachary got honored by MADD for keeping our roads safe only to become part of the problem. You would think being honored by MADD would be a badge of honor. OK, you'd have some pride about that a reminder to uphold the very values you were recognized for right nope nope nope nope officer high decided to go from hero to hypocrite and that's why i believe he might have been set up now i don't mean he wasn't drunk he was drunk okay he was drinking and he was driving okay he chose to get inebriated he chose to drive but i
Starting point is 01:24:23 do believe zachary was set up okay he got this award and one of the other officers or somebody in his life that knows him was hating Okay, they was like hell no Zachary drinks more Makers Mark than me All right He was just drunk driving last night and he's getting rewarded by mad this afternoon might have to drop a dime on that ninja Okay, that's what I think happened All right you okay that's what i think happened all right somebody couldn't stand the hypocrisy so they lined them up and rightfully so because nobody should be drinking and driving all right zachary you are a police officer the person the public looks to to protect and serve the person the
Starting point is 01:24:56 public looks to for uh law enforcement and safety you got to recognize by mad the mothers against drunk driving zachary that should be a moment of reflection for you all right a moment to double down on the message you're supposed to stand for okay it's supposed to double down on the message that you got honored for but instead you decided to make the kind of mistake that lands you in the very headlines you're supposed to prevent damn Zachary you know you had a rough day when you're honored by mad in the morning and end up needing their services by the evening Okay, what if he was celebrating being honored by mad and that's why he got drunk in the first place
Starting point is 01:25:31 What if he thought the award came with a few free drink tickets? I'm just trying to make sense of something that doesn't make sense and the reason it doesn't make sense is because it's just simply the irony of life Zachary this is the kind of behavior that not only tarnishes your own reputation, but also discredits the efforts of organizations like MAD. And this is just another reason why we, the public, don't trust law enforcement. Okay? You had one job, Zachary.
Starting point is 01:25:56 Actually, two. All right? First, uphold the law. That's it. Nothing more because you're a police officer. Second, set a positive example, especially after being honored by MAD, the Mothers Against Drunk Driving, for apparently setting a positive example especially after being honored by mad the mothers against drunk driving for apparently setting a good example and guess what you managed to fail at both jobs all right they say life is all about balance well zachary was trying to balance
Starting point is 01:26:16 a mad award in one hand and the drink in the other all right imagine being the poster child for mad one minute and then turning right around and in their next case study i hope this serves as some type of wake-up call because it's certainly a teachable moment but not just for you officer hyde but for anyone who thinks they're above the law are immune to the consequences of their actions because nobody is above accountability please give officer zachary hyde the biggest hee-haw he hide the biggest he ho tell me about it jesus all right well thank you for that donkey today sir yes indeed now when we come back let's open up the phone lines 800-585-1051 now during just with the mess we were reporting about the game and the game was talking about being an older parent he's uh 44 years old and he's about
Starting point is 01:27:05 to have a baby and he says when he has this baby when the baby's 21 he'll be in his 60s so let's open up the phone lines 800-585-1051 these are for uh anybody that has older kids and younger kids how has your parenting changed as an older parent versus a younger parent that is the question 800-585-1051. I'll start with you, Charlamagne. We have a second. You have a young child,
Starting point is 01:27:29 two years old, but then you have an older child. So how has your parenting changed? I don't know if my parenting changed. I've changed, right? Parenting changed a little bit.
Starting point is 01:27:36 I have more patience now. I have no idea. Here's the thing. I wouldn't know if I got more patience or not because, you know, my oldest is 16.
Starting point is 01:27:45 You know where my head was at 16 years ago? Neither do I. I don't know what I was on 16 years ago, but I was not on what I'm on now. So that's what changes you change as an individual. Well, yeah, I would say, you know, definitely patience. But also, I think the knowledge that, you know, like you said, you have evolved. So you're able to definitely instill that in the younger kids because the older kids was kind of like there's no instruction manual. You're learning as you go along. Right. And you're still learning as you go along because, you know, as the kids get older, like, you know, the two is way different than 16.
Starting point is 01:28:21 That's correct. Way different. So even like myself, even with the trampoline, like my kids the other day was like, yo, get on the trampoline with me. And when Madison was young, I'd be in the trampoline with them all day long. This time I'm like, damn, if I get on that trampoline and something happens, I ain't going to heal fast like I would heal before. The hell's going to happen to you on the trampoline? You can fall.
Starting point is 01:28:41 You can hurt your legs. On the goddamn trampoline? Yes, on the goddamn trampoline. I don't want to take that risk. The trampoline bounces You can fall. You can hurt your legs. On the goddamn trampoline? Yes, on the goddamn trampoline. I don't want to take that risk. The trampoline bounces. Yes, and you can bounce and hurt yourself. How? I don't know, but I want to figure it out. You probably try to jump so high and jump out of the trampoline
Starting point is 01:28:54 and fall on the ground. No, but you do tricks. Like, you do back flips. You do front flips. No, I don't do that. See, yeah, but they'll do it. You're the type to get hype off Simone Biles watching the Olympics and then go outside and try to do the same thing. Mm-mm. So? That ain't how I do it. There's a lot of people out there that I'm sure have tried. Olympics and then go outside and try to do the same thing? Uh-uh. So? There's a lot of people out there that I'm sure have tried.
Starting point is 01:29:09 You know what I do when I get on the trampoline? What? Popcorn. I lay down and let the kids jump all around me. Okay? Because at the same time, see, you don't know how to age. You don't know how to age gracefully. I'm 46 years old.
Starting point is 01:29:20 So when I go lay down on the trampoline, I'm catching me a little nap. Oh, you're catching a little nap. So I'm getting my little nap time and letting them do popcorn at the same time. Oh, so you're quote-unquote watching the kids, but you're really taking a nap. Absolutely. Oh, you're catching a little nap? So I'm getting my little nap time and letting them do popcorn at the same time. Oh, so you're quote-unquote watching the kids, but you're really taking a nap? Absolutely. Oh, boy. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 01:29:30 Let's discuss how has your parenting changed as an older parent versus being a younger parent? Let's talk about it. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:29:44 It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj nv just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club now jess is on maternity leave no she didn't have the baby yet but she's on maternity leave baby will be here soon any moment that head is right there by that cervix but we're asking 800-585-1051 we're talking about being an older parent now this conversation actually comes from the game he says he was talking about he's uh about to have a baby and when the baby's 21 he'll be in his 60s so we're asking how has your parenting changed as an older parent versus a younger parent? 800-585-1051. Now, like I said for myself, I definitely have more patience.
Starting point is 01:30:33 And two, I just don't have the energy. I ain't going to sit here and lie. I don't have the energy I used to have. It ain't the same. And of course, we're getting older, so we're never going to have that same energy. I definitely don't have the same patience. That's one thing kids do not give me. My kids say nothing about patience.
Starting point is 01:30:48 The kids do not teach me patience in no way, shape, or form. Yeah, I just think that you change as a person. I definitely feel like my two youngest daughters are getting the best version of me, a more present version. I guess that's what I would say. A more present version. A more present. Yeah, absolutely. Because 16 years ago, I was ripping and running. My mind was not where it needed to be in regards to fatherhood, in regards to, you know, I wasn't even married yet at the time.
Starting point is 01:31:12 So, yeah, I would say I'm more present now. That's what age does for me. It makes me a more present parent. Yeah, definitely. And you realize what's more important. Like you said, when I was younger, I was chasing the bag. I was chasing the check. I was trying to make as much as I can. But now I'm trying to chase being home. I'm trying to be home as much as possible. I'm trying to spend every last moment with them because I enjoy it and they enjoy it. But let's go to the phone lines. We have Naya on the line. Naya, good morning. Hi, it's Naya. I'm sorry, Naya.
Starting point is 01:31:49 morning hi it's nia i'm sorry nia it's okay so i am a younger parent but i have experience being a younger mom just because um i had experiences like my cousins having kids young and we just you know it takes a village but the only thing that i can say is that with time you get more experience and i'm so nervous i don't know why. But basically, I forgot what I said. We listening. We got you. We hear you. Okay. So when you're an older parent, you know how things get fine.
Starting point is 01:32:14 With time, things get wiser. You get wiser and you get more experience. So I think when you're an older parent, you just take experiences of yourself. And you have more time socially and mentally when you are younger you're trying to live your life also taking care of the child that's right yep it's different you take experiences of others and put into that child so i just think when they're you're more you're more present you're more present you're more present thank you now now also i would say that even with dealing with life it's a lot
Starting point is 01:32:46 different like i don't remember watching the debates with madison and logan who is you know 22 and 20 now but now my 11 year old my 10 year old my seven year old we're sitting there watching the presidential debates and explaining and breaking it down what things actually mean are they watching because they want to watch or just because you got it on tv a little bit of both a little bit of both hello who's this hello yo this this your boy all dre day all day every day what's up dre he's dre good morning hey how's it going fellas good good we're talking about uh how has your parenting changed being an older parent versus being a younger parent so man i'm an old guy with a baby you know uh 50 years old i got a sevenold. I had my first at 19.
Starting point is 01:33:26 He's 31 now. So that's a big gap between the 31 and 7. And everything changes. You know, when you're old and you got a baby, you're more patient, more established. Kind of wish I had a way that I was old to have all the kids. You know what I mean? You have time to PTA, have time to play. One big difference is it hurts when you play with the kids. You know what I mean? You have time to PTA, have time to play. One big difference is it hurts when you play with the kids.
Starting point is 01:33:48 It does. You can't get out there and start playing monkey in the middle and kickball and all of that no more. Man, who you telling? I was there yesterday. Because, you know, you got to jump back and forth because I got the two-year-old, the eight-year-old, and the five-year-old. So the two-year-old might want to get pushed on the bike. The eight-year-old want to shoot basketball.
Starting point is 01:34:05 So you got to do all of these different things, and you're trying to get all of them to do one thing at once, and they don't want to? Oh, Lord have mercy. See, I'm with you, Dracy. A game of kickball, everybody want to play. Madison, who's 22, she want to play. The 11-year-old, 10-7.

It do. It do. Yeah, the knees yeah the knees the feet all that oh but it's been fun i can't say it's definitely been fun being older being more established being able to uh attend meetings and games and things like that so you know it's a blessing and a curse okay thank you dre 800-585-1051 if you're just joining us,

You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast Post Run High is
Starting point is 01:40:26 all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So y'all, this is Questlove, and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family
Starting point is 01:41:19 friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same
Starting point is 01:42:11 thing. Check it. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. About being an older parent versus being a younger parent, what's your thoughts? I think that I'm more attentive now i'm 44 i have a 25 year old and a 20 year old and i have a two and a five year old so i think i'm more i'm more aware that you know of everything that i learned with my older kids so i think i'm more there now okay and understand a lot more so you're more present you understand more yeah definitely okay that's all it's about i mean i think that's the biggest thing as you get older
Starting point is 01:43:10 you just become a more present parent absolutely salute to everybody who was present from the beginning sorry you think you better than us all right well what's the moral of the story if there's a moral the moral of the story is man you better pray to be an old parent. You know what I'm saying? I want all my years. I want to be out here 80, 90 years old. I want to see my grandkids. So, you know, I do agree with the game. I look at it the same way, right?
Starting point is 01:43:34 Like my youngest is two. In 20 years, when she's 22 and I'm 66, you know, I look at people like Steve Harvey. He's 67 now. Right. So I do look at older people. I look at that. I look at 70-year-olds, 80-year-olds, you know, 60-year-olds, and I look at what they're doing in their life and how they look and how they move.
Starting point is 01:43:51 That's right. And I'm like, okay, that's the future. That's right. All right. Now, when we come back, we got Jess with the message. Jess is on maternity leave, so we're holding it down for her. We got to talk about Drake. He announces a new album.
Starting point is 01:44:03 We'll tell you about that. Also, Cardi B clears up some rumors. So we'll get into all that when we come back it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj envy just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club jess is out on maternity leave she did not have the baby yet but she is out and let's get to Jess with the mess. News is real. Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lying. She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess. Worldwide mess.
Starting point is 01:44:40 On The Breakfast Club. She's a culture shift. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see it's time to set it all now drake was performing in toronto on friday and he made an announcement about his new project and new album and this is what he said do what you need to do i know all you girls are outside and when it gets a little chilly party next door at drake album will be right there for you so he announced a new album with party next door and also called party next door the king of r&b not this year drake i already said take take take a year off let nostalgia bring you back right it's gonna be interesting to see how that project is received though yeah but you know if it's an r&b project and it has some joints on it, people are going to love them joints.
Starting point is 01:45:28 People always seem like they always want R&B music, especially good R&B music. Yeah, I just don't know if this is the year for Drake to put out anything. Drake said something before this beef happened, and people forgot about it. He said he was going to take a break. I think he should have listened to himself. He should have listened to himself and took that break. Before the whole situation with Kendrick, he said he was going to take a break. I think now is the time for him to take that break.
Starting point is 01:45:55 And if he got a hit, it'll change everybody's mind. Nostalgia will bring him back. People will be like, damn, yo, where Drake at? But if you got a record and you got a smash, people will forget about it. Maybe. We say that. Maybe. Now, Amber Rose, she recently appeared on Kickstream with Aiden Ross and was talking about a bunch of things.
Starting point is 01:46:12 Hold on real quick before you finish that. You know why it's going to be hard? Why? As long as Not Like Us is the song of the summer, the song of the year, as long as that's playing, it makes it tough for anything Drake does. Anything. Yeah. You can't escape that record playing right it makes it tough for anything drake does anything yeah you can't escape that record because it's still a power it's still a big record but it has to die at some point well wait till it dies the record has to die drake you need to sit this one out you better you hope it's not like snooze like snooze like sizzle like it just
Starting point is 01:46:40 keeps going and going you know you know when you're in the house are you out somewhere and it start raining real real real real hard you're like you know i'm just gonna wait till the rains die down a little bit wait till the rain die down aubrey man now back to uh amber rolls we're talking about amber rolls she was on with aiden ross and they were having a conversation and of course they had a conversation about her support for donald trump aiden my dms are full of celebrities that are like, damn, Amber, you got f***s, yo. Like, I wish I can come out and say it, but I don't want to
Starting point is 01:47:10 lose, you know, my show on Netflix or I have this movie coming out and I don't want them to fire me. And even, you know, music artists. So many music artists that I know for years and years and years, they're like, yo, we love Trump, but we're just scared to say something. And'm just like yo i can't live like that anymore i need to just be
Starting point is 01:47:29 who the i am and say you know talk about my beliefs and really try to change the minds of of as many people as i can well she also talks about her feelings on kamala and pandering think about kamala like having me Thee Stallion twerk. What were your thoughts on that? I like Megan. I think she's a good person. I think that she is pandering to black people. I think that she thinks that that's what black people want to see in order to vote for her.
Starting point is 01:47:57 And I think it's absolute bulls**t. I mean, I think that people in general just want to know the policies. The extra stuff stuff it's like it's cool it's like a you know a concert and stuff like that but what about the policies how are you gonna make america great again no pun intended uh i don't give a damn god bless amber rose if she wants to vote for donald trump i don't care i don't care who who wants to vote for who i do agree with her that you know when it comes to discussing policies, that should be the issue. It shouldn't be about somebody's identity.
Starting point is 01:48:28 It shouldn't be about who they got at their rally. It should be about policy. But I think it's lost on both sides. Which is what I would ask her. Like, what policies of Trump's do you support? Right. But I think that's lost on both sides. I mean, it's neither side of talking about policies.
Starting point is 01:48:43 No, that's not true. Well, let me rephrase that i feel like media picks up less about the policy more about the gossip absolutely that's that's the problem i always have you know when it comes to the media because you'll you'll get on these programs you know whether it's the cnn's msnbc's you know fox's whatever and they'll ask you about this this stuff what do you think about amirosa correct what do you think about donald trump saying kamala's not black it's like you yo what does that have to do with you know how we're gonna keep money in our pocket food on our table and a roof over our head what does that got
Starting point is 01:49:13 to do with keeping america safe no right those are the things that we should be discussing now og tom hanks uh his house was burglarized in la that's one thing i i just i i hear so much about la i hear about so many breaking robberies, right? He was out of town. They broke into his guest house, broke the window. The alarm went off.
Starting point is 01:49:32 It didn't stop them. This was broad daylight. By the time the police came, which was hours later, they already had left with valuables. So that happens a lot in LA. That's what makes me very nervous about LA and heading to LA.
Starting point is 01:49:43 It seems like the police can never get there fast enough. And lastly, last week, Jess reported about Cardi B and her filing for divorce from Offset. Well, she wanted to clear up a lot of rumors that were circulating. So she said, OK, this is getting weird because I can say he helps me, meaning Offset helps me a lot with my businesses and kids. You know, it was a rumor that they said that he was unsupportive. She says, never in my career, no matter what I went through, I had friends or family to go through media. businesses and kids you know it was a rumor that they said that he was unsupportive she says never in my career no matter what i went through i had friends or family to go through media so i don't
Starting point is 01:50:09 know who is the damn source going to people magazine even with my filing i'm not asking for child support my claim is for him to only pay for the bills he already pays on the kids and the new one and by the way i'm so happy y'all know i'm pregnant now so i can stop wearing those damn school girl skirts laughing my ass off and that is just with the mess all right oh you know what i want to tell people man what's that uh this saturday right this saturday august the 10th mount's corner south carolina you know i do my ninth annual back to school giveaway in a fish fry i thought it was this weekend but yeah i got it is this weekend i thought it was last week i mean no it's august 10th august 10th this saturday from 10 a.m to 1 p.m at the berkeley high school student parking lot in monks corner south carolina so you

Everyone makes mistakes in life. You know, I be watching social media sometime. And, you know, I was actually thinking about that this weekend
Starting point is 01:53:04 when I saw everybody mad at Kalani and Chris Brown taking a picture together. And it just made me think that, yo, everybody makes mistakes in life, but that doesn't mean they have to pay for them for the rest of their life. Okay? Sometimes good people make bad choices. That doesn't mean they're bad. It means they're human.
