Starting point is 00:06:26 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, y'all. How y'all feeling?
Starting point is 00:06:38 A lot happening. Peace, Morgan. What's up, girl? Yeah, okay. So President Biden is back at the White House after being in isolation from a bout with COVID. Now, he is expected to address the nation in a prime time today from the Oval Office. And, of course, Black Information Network will have that address live on air. So be sure to check it out at BINews.com.
Starting point is 00:07:00 This will be his first on-camera appearance since he dropped out of the 2024 presidential race on Sunday. Biden told his campaign workers over the phone on Monday that dropping out was the right thing to do. Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris, she has kicked off her presidential campaign with her first rally in the battleground state of Wisconsin. While speaking from Milwaukee, Harris came for former President Donald Trump. Let's hear more from VP Harris at her rally in Milwaukee. California, I took on one of our country's largest for-profit colleges that was scamming students. Donald Trump ran a for-profit college that scammed students. In California, I took on the big Wall Street banks and held them accountable for fraud.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Donald Trump was just found guilty of fraud on 34 counts. You know, I want to see the vice president doing more free flowing conversation, like go pop out on a couple of podcasts, you know, go do a couple of radio shows because she's good with that kind of conversation. I've seen her give two speeches this week because she's good with that kind of conversation. I've seen her give two speeches this week and it's the same bars, which we know is good because to be repetitive in a situation like this is certain things
Starting point is 00:08:14 you want to stick in people's minds. But the way they're going to be scrutinizing her, the microscope they're going to have on her, I want to see her having more free-flowing conversation because you already saw that meme they got going around with the line she repeats over and over i can't remember the line right now but the thing about the burden yeah yes yeah i was gonna make that
Starting point is 00:08:32 the positive note today yeah they got a three minute clip of her doing that already so it's just like you don't want to see them do more of that oh yeah uh what can be unburdened by what has been. Has been. Yes. Mine, I'm speaking. So Harris quickly consolidated Democratic support to become the party's presumptive nominee this week, securing the delegate support and endorsement of top Democrats in Congress, Hakeem Jeffries and, of course, Chuck Schumer. And most artists and politicians,
Starting point is 00:09:04 a cease and desist for using their music. But Beyonce gave actually gave her the rights to her song Freedom to use on the campaign trail. Now, her campaign is currently vetting potential running mates for VP, most of which are from states Democrats need to win or to defeat Trump like those battleground states. So the campaign is requesting vetting materials from several potential running mates to include Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro. Let's go, Governor Shapiro! That's my vote. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:09:34 Roy Cooper, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, and Arizona Senator Mark Kelly. Sources also say Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear and New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy are also being considered. Yeah. My vote is for Governor Shapiro.
Starting point is 00:09:49 I like Shapiro. Can you tell me why? I've had quite a few conversations with him. He's been up here on the Breakfast Club. There's a great Breakfast Club conversation that you can go look at. If you go look at what he's done in Pennsylvania, I love what he's done with probation reform. I think that was huge. I love what he's done with probation reform. I think that that was huge.
Starting point is 00:10:06 I love what he's done with what they call it, the Second Chance Act. I think it's called it a clean slate act. But it's basically for, you know, people who have felonies, who've come out of prison and who are getting back into offenders and who've come back into society and are trying to do, you know, better. So I like the stuff that he's done around that. It seems like he's not afraid to touch the people, even when it's not campaign season. He's out there. He's going from place to place. I really like the fact that he feels like you can talk to him. He feels like a normal person
Starting point is 00:10:32 and not like a car salesperson to me. Nice, nice, nice. That's definitely the type of politician we want. Former President Donald Trump says he will debate VP Harris as she is the presumptive... No, he won't. He told reporters... He said he would, but let me he won't. He told reporters he said he would, but let me get into it. He told reporters he'd be willing to debate Harris multiple times if
Starting point is 00:10:51 she's nominated, as expected during the Democratic National Convention that goes down next month in August on the 19th. Trump, however, suggested he would not participate in a debate hosted by ABC News, which was already previously scheduled when President Biden was expected to be in the race. Now, Trump is looking to debate on Fox, but there's no confirmation on that date. So, like you said, he he going to do it or he not going to do it. I want them to do it with the same rules that they did the first debate. No audience. You know what I mean? Just just just them, too. So so it's no performance to any crowd. It's just all about the substance of the conversation.
Starting point is 00:11:25 And you said Biden is addressing the nation tonight, right? Yes. Yes, he is. Yes, he is. I'm glad he's doing that. Because there was a rumor going around yesterday that he had died and they was trying to cover it up. Yeah, he was in hospice. Or, you know, I'd also heard that he was in hospice, but it's like he was just
Starting point is 00:11:41 on the phone, guys, on Monday. It's crazy, right? Because you got Congresswoman Lauren Boberber she sent out a tweet saying she demands proof of life i had some homies texting me yesterday saying they think he had died i don't understand our need to believe everything but the truth nowadays we love the drama yeah but it's just the same thing seem odd like the fact that you know he announced that he wasn't going to do it through a tweet and didn't say it personally then we didn't see him for a couple of days. So people, you know, people want to see him. Yeah, because in isolation, that's what you're supposed to do. He was in COVID.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Yeah, COVID. For eight days? For seven days? What do you mean? He announced Sunday. Right. And then announced that he was going in isolation like Friday or Saturday. No, he announced COVID Tuesday or Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Was that early? Yes. It was like Wednesday he announced COVID. I don't remember that. But then he is 89 or 98. And everything is through social media nowadays. And guess what? In the tweets, if you read the tweets, he also said, I'll be addressing the nation in a few days.
Starting point is 00:12:33 So he said that. People just want to see. But to say he died? Come on, bro. People just want to see. Yeah, that's doing too much. Definitely doing too much. So yeah, just make sure y'all check out the address tonight from the Oval.
Starting point is 00:12:44 And again, the Black Information Network will air that address. So you can check it out at BINnews.com. Or, you know, make sure you download that iHeartRadio app and check out Black Information Network. All right. Well, thank you, Morgan. Thank you. I was going to say, I got more coming up in the next hour. We're going to talk about the Secret Service some more.

Starting point is 00:14:06 About what? Joe Biden had COVID. He wasn't going to come out and talk to y'all. He let y'all know, hey, look, I'm giving y'all what y'all want. I'm going to talk to y'all in a couple of days. Give me a minute. Oh, yeah. Absolutely.

Starting point is 00:14:43 Hey, you got to pop out and show. Absolutely. Right. But anyways, guys, I just wanted pop out and show myself. You got to pop out and show out. Absolutely. Right. But anyways, guys, I just wanted to call. I was just so excited. I tried to call yesterday. They had me on hold for like 20 minutes.
Starting point is 00:14:53 I had to go. Lord have mercy. Well, we're sorry they had you on hold that long. And that theme music. Listen, that theme music. Y'all was running through, what, the TV show theme song? I was like, okay, yeah, no, I got to go. This is driving me crazy. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:15:06 You know what it is? People just don't like being on hold, because back in the day, they would complain about the call waiting music, right? But now, so we tried to spruce it up. But it was theme song after theme song. I'm singing the song, the friends, all kind of way. It's been 20 minutes of this. I gotta go. I gotta go. I gotta go.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Have a great day. But you guys, have a great day. I just wanted to call y'all again, Dad. Oh, my God. I love you, girl. I'm so glad you're there. I love you, too. Y'all have a good day. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Thank you, Dad. Bye. Hello, who's this? This is T.D. from Pittsburgh, Dad. Good morning. Good morning, Dad. Good morning, man. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:15:41 What's up, baby? Peace, King. Hey, um, Trump, I hate to say it, but when he does, they don't realize how bad it is for black people. With him, I can't really understand you, brother. He said they're going to see how bad it is for black people.
Starting point is 00:15:56 With him, I'm talking about giving police immunity. Oh, yeah. We are in trouble. We are in serious trouble. See what happened to that lady the other day. Absolutely. A hundred percent. But, you know, that's why I'm glad the Democrats made a change in their ticket, because I feel
Starting point is 00:16:11 like it's giving voters a sense of urgency. They're understanding the seriousness of the situation. I think people are starting to pay a lot more attention now. You know, a lot of these white people they get extra tough they got extra stuff last time he was in there you know i'm from pittsburgh and it's like we'll be playing that with the white people like you like who you like but all that gets tough they get extra they get real extra yeah but don't you i don't want that either don't we want it don't we want leaders in place that don't make us feel like that?
Starting point is 00:16:47 Like, I don't want it to be a black thing, a white thing, a Democrat, a Republic thing, a man versus woman thing, a us versus they thing. Like, don't you want us just to be America? Exactly. But you know, just like Adler, it's not going to work like that if he wins. Well, it ain't going to work like that if he don't win either. Now, I don't want y'all to think that. I don't want y'all to think that, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:07 if he don't win in November and somebody else gets in, if Kamala Harris gets in, if she's the nominee, that all of this is just going to magically go away. It's not. Oh, I know that. Most definitely. Most definitely. Okay.

Starting point is 00:18:19 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed. I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk. I hate the way that you dress. Everything with me is blessed.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Call up now. 800-585-1051. Not just me. I'm with the coach of Philly. Hello, who's this? Hey, man. This is G Brown. How y'all doing this morning?
Starting point is 00:18:45 What's up, G Brown? Hey, man. Hey, I want to get off my chest. Good morning to y'all, Breakfast Club. I want to get off my chest. The shooting that happened in Illinois with Zion Massey. One of the issues that I'm having with that, what I'm looking at so far is that already I'm looking at the Democrat Party using this thing as, you know, to make a little race thing as a, you know, to get black vote.
Starting point is 00:19:08 They did with the George Floyd situation. But then the whole thing got turned around into something totally bigger than that. It didn't stick with that issue. So I would like, you know, for them not to use this situation as they did with the George Floyd and they get all mixed up because already they paint the narrative like she had this mental health issue like that gave the cop a right so far because I was watching Tatum Officer Tatum's
Starting point is 00:19:33 podcast and he was saying that it was justified because you know she had mental issues and it looked like that she almost, I mean that she learned the pot towards the policeman that made it look good. They didn't say that shooting was justified. Yeah, I don't think it is either. He was released already.
Starting point is 00:19:48 That was nowhere near justified. The cops should only be running when their life is in danger, and those officers' life wasn't in danger. I know they're not supposed to do a headshot regardless, you know, because I have an uncle that was a policeman, and I know that's one of the things in their training, that they're not supposed to do a headshot. Regardless if they thought they was in danger or not, they're supposed to do a body shot.
Starting point is 00:20:07 You know what I was thinking, too? I was thinking, wasn't that premeditated murder? And the reason I say it's premeditated murder, because he told her, I'll shoot you in the face. He told her, I will shoot you in the face. That's what that means. He thought about it. Yeah, I was thinking about it. Isn't that premeditated murder?
Starting point is 00:20:18 What's the guy's name? Grayson? Sean Grayson? Yeah. Yeah. And I don't know why you say it can't be a race thing. It just seems like a racist thing when there's a white officer shooting a black woman and he feels like and if just watching
Starting point is 00:20:29 the video it seems like he had no respect for her life from the door just yeah i'll shoot you in your face i've never heard an officer say i'll shoot you in the face and then when the guy and when his partner went to go get help oh headshot like she's not living anymore and then after when he said what the f was crazy or whatever he said, like, he didn't have no... Exactly. There was no respect for that woman's life. There was nothing. He had no respect for that woman's life.
Starting point is 00:20:50 He do have a Capitol riot white look, though. There's a Capitol riot white look to him. And condolences to that lady's family, her friends. It's just a horrible thing, man. Yeah, it is. It definitely is, man. But I appreciate y'all's platform, man. And DJ Henry, I hope I get to meet you one day,
Starting point is 00:21:09 because I already met you, Charlie May, in Hanover, Maryland, at the end of one of the meals when I got your book signing. Oh, thank you for coming out. I see you, Jess, in Baltimore. Yeah, man. So I would like to meet Jess, but I did go see her in Baltimore. So, you know, I like what y'all are doing, man. Y'all bringing good awareness to this thing, man.
Starting point is 00:21:24 And I would like to talk to y'all one time. If I could get a chance and talk more with y'all with the sickle cell thing, because I've seen when you had the guy on there, Ratman on there, and I have a daughter. Her mother had deal with sickle cell. So I plan on trying to do an interview with her this weekend and see where that goes to bring more awareness to that situation. Please do, my brother.

Thank you, Moniqueique speaking of monique talapari response to criticism so we know he just dropped a new movie it is called divorce in the black and you know it's been receiving mixed reviews and like everything yeah yeah like everything else and people often criticize talapari for consistently creating projects with the same storyline. So during episode of Kiki Palmer's podcast, she committed him for never changing his artistry, despite all the criticism.
Starting point is 00:28:18 And this is what he said. If you let somebody talk you out of a place that God has put you in, you are going to find yourself in hell. I know for a fact that what I'm doing is exactly what I'm supposed to be doing, because for every one who is a critic, I have thousands of used to be emails from people saying this changed my life. Oh, my God, you know me. Oh, my God, you saw me. How did you know this about my life, my family, a large portion of my fans who are disenfranchised, who cannot get in the Volvo and go to therapy on the weekend? So you've got this highbrow Negro who is all up in the air with his nose up looking at everything. And then you've got people like where I come from and me who are grinders who really know what it's like. Don't discount these people and say that their story don't matter. Who are you to be able to say which black story is important or should be told get out of here with that boy
Starting point is 00:29:07 he's absolutely right there's nothing wrong with uh you know changing and evolving if you want to but don't force anybody to make you uh be something that you're not because tyler perry is consistent he's just like you know you know your favorite restaurant or your favorite you know store that you shop at you know that when you go there when you know when you go to, you know, your favorite restaurant or your favorite store that you shop at. You know that when you go there. You know when you go to Target, you know what you're going to get. You know when you go to Chick-fil-A, you know what you're going to get. He's consistent.
Starting point is 00:29:33 And it works. And people support him. That's the thing. People support him. It's not like nobody watches his movies. It's not like he catches bricks. People support his movies and they love his movies. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:29:42 If he want to keep making black people hurt movies, then laugh. Keep going. We know we're going to get get like you said and target we know that's his prices are a bit higher yeah that's we know that that's his way of storytelling that's that's very that's all and that's just what it is but when tyler price thought cousin that means all right now all right now get out of here with that boyish like Like I said. All right, moving on. DJ claims that she got in trouble for playing Not Like Us in Houston. So her name is DJ Ari. She claimed that she got in trouble for playing Not Like Us. Not just at one club, but in certain clubs.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Somebody had put on Twitter, Drake really got Not Like Us banned in Houston. And she commented back to the world I don't know how Twitter worked because I'm not on there but this is what she did I don't know if it's called a retweet or repost or something but she added her to and she said yeah I done already got in trouble a few times for playing it at clubs and um the person who made the original tweet also said clubs like Sakai, Clay or Clee, Prospect Park and Camp. I've been to Club Camp. It's a nice club or whatever, but they didn't allow the track to be played. And the DJ clarified that it wasn't Drake or J Prince that directly stopped her from playing the song. It was the promoters. and she also said headlines can be misleading drake nor jay prince never told me not to play the song promoters and people that respect those guys told me not to and it was understood that's it that's all uh drake has a close-up with houston a close relationship with houston ever since he
Starting point is 00:31:18 was essentially discovered by rap a lot records uh founder jay prince and he lives there so i'm sure the promoters are like you know what we still want him to slide through every now and then and drake's always there like he goes to those clubs he frequents the car he frequents area 29 he frequents the camp so i tell you when i was out there a couple of weeks ago uh about a month two months ago i think i was out there and i was about to play the record i'm not even thinking i'm just you know it's the hottest record at the time right and i just remember the dj being like oh i'm of here. But wait till I leave before you play that. Because he didn't want it to be like he played the record.
Starting point is 00:31:48 And it was like it was a band. It was like they got so much respect for Drake in Houston because he does a lot for the city. He goes out and supports the city. They just don't want to itch in his face. So that's probably what the promoters were thinking. Like, nah, don't play that here because homie might pull up. Oh, all right.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Well, I know the radio is still playing the record. I know. We're on 93.7 to beat out there we play three or four times a morning yeah how can you stop yo that's crazy oh yeah and he has a mansion right outside of houston so yeah like y'all said he lived there kind of dude whatever all right um moving forward with that well no look i'm gonna say this because i like camp and if i go there, I'm going to want to hear
Starting point is 00:32:26 Not Like Us and then I'm going to want to hear something by Drake. Why we can't just play both? You're not going to hear it. Both the music. You're definitely not going to hear it then.
Starting point is 00:32:32 I'm like, I'm never coming back. They'll be like, so? They'll be like, so? Drake will be here. I'm playing in your car before you get there. That's all.
Starting point is 00:32:41 Yeah, no, I'm joking. I'm joking. I spiced accused of stealing wigs oh my god seriously oh look the owner of bella brand hair company is accusing ice spice of not paying for over 20 weeks so y'all know she on the tour right and so she reached out to the stylist that um that she's worked with before uh this wig maker or whatever and ordered 19 wigs and so the girl started making them and then she reached out again and added five
Starting point is 00:33:09 more right and um so they had said they had hit her up after she made all 24 of these wigs now this is a lot of work a lot of people don't give wig makers credit because some wigs they order but some wigs like are handmade right and so she reached out to them like you know asked about the budget and they were just like um well this is a little bit over the budget for you know what we expected um there's 24 wigs bitch but y'all took it you know what i'm saying so i just don't understand that so they kind of like ghosted her for like a couple days or whatever and then um but the girl was like all right i've worked with her before so she gave us some grace she was like all right they may move
Starting point is 00:33:49 some money around they may pay me or do promotion something like that but when they didn't hit her back that's when she was like all right i'm not gonna work with y'all no more so then a week later they hit up and asked her for another week like nothing never happened and so she was like well what happened to the back order y'all ordered 24 weeks for this girl's tour and then i don't know you didn't pay for them not even offer promotion at all and then now you're trying to order another wig and it was like yeah yeah we're not gonna pay for that bitch we just want this one this is what her request is first of all that is so ghetto well she is from the Bronx, so she ain't really steal. She just.
Starting point is 00:34:26 She Bronx? No, she stole. That's what it is. I don't care where you from. I done stole wigs, too. I know what it's like. Yes, that's exactly what happened. How do you steal a wig?
Starting point is 00:34:35 In my mind, when you say steal a wig, I thought it was a bunch of red curly wigs in the store, and she walked in with a bag. That's how I was picturing it in my head. But she never got the wigs, though, right? She never got the wigs. No, she never got them. They kept pushing the due date back. So when she made all of them, she was supposed to get some type of money before she sent
Starting point is 00:34:50 any of them. And they just kept saying, like, I guess when she sent them the invoice, they was like, no, this is out of the budget. Well, they should have negotiated that beforehand. Because, I mean, we've all been in situations where you buy something and all of a sudden they give you the price. I'm like, no, no, no, this is not what I expected. That ain't stealing, though, just because I don't want to pay for it no more.
Starting point is 00:35:08 That's what I'm saying. Where the stealing coming from? You got me gassed up for a good start. But she may know. She made all these damn wigs. And we know how Ice Spice like her wigs. No part. There was a bunch of red wigs sitting around somewhere.
Starting point is 00:35:19 Yeah, it's all ice. Orange and red, yeah. They all for her. They all for her. Nobody else want them but her. That's not true nah ronald mcdonald you stupid wendy's there's a lot of places you can send them red wigs right now she should have negotiated the price where we agree on a price and you give me a deposit
Starting point is 00:35:35 and i make the wigs that's how we work this is freaking 24 wigs yo what did you expect i expect to pay 200 a wig and you charge me a thousand way? That's too much for me I'm gonna lose bombs for ice white This girl spent money buying and dying away So you think she paid somebody her shop 2000 to help her like data weeks for the girl all of that Just wasted it's orange. It's not red. You know what I'm saying? The orange just wasted. Okay? Damn. You wearing orange right now.
Starting point is 00:36:08 You can order a wig or two if you want. I'm not ordering no ice face wig now. I like my parts. I like my front two plucked and everything. I will tell the wig dresser Halloween right around the corner. Okay? Yes. Put together your ice spice Halloween costumes.
Starting point is 00:36:21 You already got it out there. But them wigs probably too expensive though. Yeah, they are. They in the Chief Spirit wigs, yeah. She ordered 20,000 in wigs. That's what it came up to, 20,000 in wigs, and wasn't even offered promo for it. You can make some money back.
Starting point is 00:36:34 You ain't going to make all of it. She can. No, she can. But the fact of the matter is that Ice Spice reached out to her to make these wigs. This is somebody that worked with her before. Do the Ice Swipe Halloween costumes. So you mix Swipe or No Swiping from Dora, with Ice Spice.
Starting point is 00:36:46 You got the wig, Stella Bandana, the little black bandana she wear. Boom. Got it. Got your little money back. Okay. Whatever. Y'all can say whatever y'all want. But that is the news.
Starting point is 00:36:56 All right. Thank you, Jess. Now, when we come back, we got front page news. And then Tink will be joining us. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Char hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get back to front
Starting point is 00:37:09 page news morning morgan morning morgan morning morgan morning morning morning morning morgan nothing wrong saying good morning to yourself you wake up in the morning look in the mirror and say good morning morgan good morning anyways uh u.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheeto has resigned after facing mounting pressure from the Republicans and Democrats to step down following the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. She testified before Congress earlier this week and provided few details on what happened at that rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, which upset many lawmakers. And in a post on X, President Biden thanked Cheadle for her service, public service, adding that she has selflessly dedicated and risked her life to protect the nation. He added that the independent review of the assassination attempt is ongoing. Now, President Biden will appoint a new Secret Service director. House Speaker Mike Johnson, he welcomed Cheadle's resignation,
Starting point is 00:38:06 calling it overdue. Let's hear from him. Our reaction, the immediate reaction to her resignation is that it is overdue. She should have done this at least a week ago. I'm happy to see that. I'm happy to see that she has heeded the call of both Republicans and Democrats. We have to rebuild the American people's faith and trust in the Secret Service as an agency. It has an incredibly important responsibility in protecting presidents, former presidents, and other officials in the executive branch, and we've got a lot of work to do. The task force that we'll be putting together is going to be very important. As I said, they have three responsibilities to investigate what happened,
Starting point is 00:38:44 the debacle that happened two Saturdays ago, to hold those accountable. They actually should have fired her. I'm shocked that she was even allowed to resign. She definitely should have been fired. The fact that everybody's seen the shooter but the Secret Service is horrible. So why, you know, sit there and take questions from Congress if, you know, that you know that this is essentially the end of the road for you. Whether you're a liar. It's like, I'm not sure how that is going to pan out.
Starting point is 00:39:12 I got a new conspiracy theory, though. I think somebody gave him the gun on the inside because you can't even get because you can't even get into those events like they search you and everything. So how did he just get in with the rifle? Somebody had to give him the gun on the inside. The inside where security was and the metal detectors where he didn't have the gun in that area. He only had the meter. But outside the area he had the gun.
Starting point is 00:39:35 He wasn't in the area with the gun. He was outside the area with the gun. He was outside the area with the gun. He was at 150 yards with the gun. Also he never came into the event. Never came in inside the event but still there is a security perimeter to get close you know so i don't 100 feet away so where the secret service were and then anything out of 100 100 yards away they they expect local police law enforcement to regulate that secure that perimeter absolutely so mike johnson went on to regulate that. Secure that perimeter, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:40:05 So Mike Johnson went on to say that Chito failed massively to protect Trump and rally goers in Butler, Pennsylvania. He also announced a bipartisan task force will investigate, as he mentioned in that audio, the circumstances surrounding the shooting. Now Secret Service is encouraging former President Trump to hold rallies indoors.
Starting point is 00:40:24 The Washington Post reports that officials told Trump's campaign to stop holding large outdoor rallies and other outdoor events with big crowds following that attempt on his life. You know, they quoted me in that damn Secret Service hearing, Andy Biggs from Arizona. I still don't have no idea why. Peace called, who is Secret Service Chief Kimberly Cheadle. Charlamagne Tha God says Trump solely responsible for violent rhetoric that led to attempt on his life. Oh, you on their list. Well, it happens.
Starting point is 00:40:54 You matter and black lives matter. So in other news, President Biden says. That's not like a positive note. I'm going to use that today. You matter and black lives matter but no seriously in other news president biden says that sonja massey should still be alive today she's the black woman who was shot to death by an illinois sheriff's deputy after she called 9-1-1 because she thought an intruder was in her home now in a statement biden said sonja's family deserves justice and that people should be able to call for help without fearing for their lives. Massey's father and civil rights attorney Ben Crump are demanding justice. Let's hear from them. These platitudes from people,
Starting point is 00:41:35 you know you have my prayers and my sympathy, but you know what I want? I want justice for my baby. Where is the humanity? Where is the training? Until we get justice for Sonia Massey, we rebuke this discriminatory criminal justice system in the name of Jesus. So, yeah, you know it's serious when you got a call on God. Sangamon County Sheriff's deputies John Grayson and another deputy went to Massey's home. In a released body cam video, he can be heard yelling at Massey over moving a pot of boiling water from the stove to the sink.
Starting point is 00:42:13 He then threatens to shoot her in the face and screams at her to drop the pot before he opens fire. Grayson has been charged with first-degree murder, aggravated battery, and official misconduct. A state's attorney says a review of the police investigation did not support the claim that Grayson was justified in his use of deadly force. Now, VP Harris called Sonia's death senseless and charged Congress to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, a bill that she co-authored when she was in the Senate. Now, the Department of Justice is opening an investigation into the deputy-involved shooting. And this was in Springfield, Illinois, by the way.
Starting point is 00:42:50 Civil rights attorney Ben Crump also announced the probe while also revealing that Massey's family has also met with Governor J.B. Pritzker and Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton. They don't teach de-escalation tactics? That's what you want to do first when you arrive on the scene but the again she called them for help so you know if for anything that goes back to securing the perimeter securing everything there could have been a cop that went in there and said oh there's water boiling on the stove let me turn that off yeah you know we're all sitting here with the shoulda coulda wouldas but you, but, you know, Sonya Matthews does deserve justice. Let's just switch things up on a lighter note, I guess.
Starting point is 00:43:28 Y'all know Snoop Dogg. He will be the final bearer of the Olympic torch. So the mayor of the small Paris suburb, Saint-Denis, announced the rapper's participation in a post on X, the suburb where the Stade de France Olympic Stadium is located.
Starting point is 00:43:44 Snoop Dogg will be part of NBC's coverage of the Olympics. So that should be exciting. Snoop, don't take nothing on the beat now. Nah, Snoop got to light up a blunt on the torch, yo. Come on, for the culture. You got to light a blunt on the Olympic torch, yo. Have your blunt already rolled. Please don't ever say for the culture.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Have your blunt already rolled. Use the torch flame to light it up take a puff come on man i'm gonna be like britney griner lock his ass up right like i was just about to say a quick google search does indicate that as of july 16th 2024 cannabis is illegal in france so yeah let's make google search that's all these people gotta do when they go into these other countries quick a quick google what if it's fake weed? What if it's not even real weed? He's just doing it as a prop because he's Snoop Dogg.

Starting point is 00:52:01 I'm Jenny Garth. 29 years ago, Kelly Taylor said these words, I choose me. She made her choice. She chose herself. When it comes to love, choose you first. Hi, everyone. I'm Amy Robach. And I'm TJ Holmes. And we are, well, not necessarily relationship experts. If you're ready to dive back into the dating pool and find lasting love, finally, we want to help. Listen to I Do Part 2 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you
Starting point is 00:52:29 listen to podcasts. I feel like that's where my fan base really grew. So this is very special to my day one. Are you still going through the pain now? Because we heard a lot of pain in the 15, 16 songs you put out there? Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:52:46 And that's what it is. It's a diarrhea. So this album is much different than the others. There's a lot of pain. There's a lot of storytelling and honesty. Things that I don't like to talk about all the time. And that's what makes it special. It's just raw and uncut.
Starting point is 00:52:59 But I'm in a much better space. I wanted to wait to drop this album till now, till I could really. So you got in that space? Exactly, y'all, till I was in that space. I had to do some healing. I had to do some, like I say, refreshing of myself. And I feel so much better now that I'm able to drop it in a space where I'm not just angry and upset. It's more so like reflecting.
Starting point is 00:53:22 And I'm teaching and I'm trying to tell my girls what to do and not to do now was it a bunch of relationships or just one relationship because you said it was since 2016 so was it a bunch of messed up relationships yeah i pull from everything y'all i pull from old relationships new relationships things i'm going through and sitting in at the moment but this album honestly was i feel like just me revealing what happened to me in the past year so a lot of a lot of the stories are fresh and that's why it's just it's just so triggering and i think you know we need that in r&b i'm not trying to sugarcoat anything oh i put you in the same boat tank as mary j blige and keisha cole and that's heavy thank you johnny Sadly, you make the best music when you going through something.
Starting point is 00:54:05 Sadly, it's crazy. That's crazy. Right there, crazy. It's sad that when you hurt, you make some powerful music.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Absolutely. The best music, to me, comes from my pain and I appreciate that market for me. I think the girls, we relate to it.
Starting point is 00:54:20 You know what I mean? I'm not the artist that's trying to be bubble gum and, you know, I'm not a pop artist. I come from Chicago, the streets of chicago so my queen of chicago g herbal just called you thank you my brother yeah my perspective is different and um that's why this album important y'all you know i know it's girls in the trenches that's going through the same things that i've
Starting point is 00:54:39 dealt with and every day ain't sunny so winter's diary is for my real ones i need to know what the studio session for for songs about you was like with you and summer together drunk off tequila venting about dude like what was that about you know what i wish i wish we were i actually sent her a couple of songs um summer has a crazy schedule i love my girl summer walker she is a mom you know what i mean she's also an r&B artist working, putting in work. So a lot of times, artists, we have to send records through the email, and we get on the phone and chop it up. So I recorded that record.
Starting point is 00:55:12 I had two records. I sent her Stressing and Songs About You. She really liked Songs About You. Like I say, she sent it back. It was a very easy process with Summer. She's a girl's girl. So I just appreciate her. A lot of people try to pin us
Starting point is 00:55:25 You know, they try to compare us a lot our music and our styles So it was really really dope to come together What was the what was the inspiration for that song was an argument with somebody were you mad? Like did you go straight to the studio? Did you let it simmer for a minute? Oh, yeah, it has to simmer You know The song is really about when you in the club or wherever you are and you get in your bag, you have a drink and you start thinking about one person. And it's always, you know, sometimes it's the toxic one, but it's always one person you call.
Starting point is 00:55:53 And that's why that song really hits home because it's summertime. We outside having our vibes and it's always one person you want to go home with. You know what I mean? Tell me what was the her record about? I want to know what her inspired that record huh what did you say to the brother that he goes huh how many times did you say huh hell no huh is really triggering for me I think all my ladies it's not y'all laughing too hard you're right you're right that wasn't funny no but my ladies understand you know these day and age men are quick to huh what was the huh what did you ask him where he was or let me see
Starting point is 00:56:30 your phone you can hear you know i like to i like to be real in my music that's what does it for me when it's honest and i was going through a period of time i was asking questions what's going on what we doing where you at with it? Huh? Huh? Yeah. Plain and simple, it's hun. Damn.
Starting point is 00:56:50 So, yeah, that day is home for a lot of women. Relationships, y'all. I feel like men, you know, it's very hard for y'all to be honest out here. So, hun is a lot of times the response. We need to think about hun sometime. I really might not have heard you. That's a lie. Charlamagne, please. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:57:03 That's a lie. You need a second to think about What your answer gonna be So that hon gives you That little second Please Exactly Envy That's what it is
Starting point is 00:57:10 You just out here snitching What's up with you We changed Black men don't cheat We changed We supposed to be teaching you We done did that in our 20s You're right
Starting point is 00:57:17 A lot of times Y'all thinking about What you wanna say So yeah You heard me You heard me So I gotta ask So when it comes to All this What kind of man is Tink looking for, right?
Starting point is 00:57:30 Because you get sexy in here and you tell what you want a man to do to you sexually. But you also talk about all these toxic relationships. So it seems like you're looking for the toxic. No, never. We running from the toxic this year, y'all. For me, it's really about being honest and true i think in 2024 men are such liars come on now men are so quick to lie so that's it huh it's been boiled down to being honest you know i like men that securing himself knows what he wants
Starting point is 00:57:59 isn't afraid to vocalize that in the beginning and for me i'm from chicago i like a man that has you know just a strong demeanor i love a stand-up guy like i said y'all be honest a lot of girls just want somebody that's gonna be real to them and not play with their feelings all right we got more with tink when we come back it's the breakfast club good morning good morning everybody it's dj envy jess hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we're still kicking it with tink charlamagne i feel like you've been searching for love for a long time, Tink. When I think about when is Diary 1? Wait a minute.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Wait a minute. It's real. It feels like the whole series is you. I've been working all my life. Okay. I think I need to say that, too. It's so hard to find love when you're really passionate in your career. So it may seem like I'm looking for love, but honestly, I'm just so grounded in my music.
Starting point is 00:58:45 I don't have time to date and I wish I did. So I just want to say that like I'm not looking for anything but a check. But you are a lover though. I'm a lover, but I'm so focused on making it and succeeding, you know. So a lot of times love just falls to the wayside for me and people don't know that. Like my music is very, it can be very sappy sometimes but in real life emotion does not run me i run my business things i'm a whole thug yeah at times i have to be yeah yeah you know how this industry can be i have a tough skin on me it may seem like that like i'm yearning for love but a lot of times y'all i am so focused on my next
Starting point is 00:59:22 act so why is that such a recurring theme and just the yearning for love throughout the mixtapes and i feel like i know what women want to hear and um in the past my music has touched a lot of souls so i gotta cater to that you know i can't leave my women hanging my music isn't about flashing money and jewelry and chains it's it's about what they need and i make sure that um i remember that when I'm writing now what relationships is it both for you guys because it takes two to tango right is it just are you kind of toxic too are you are you part of the problem well I think in general everybody is capable of being toxic we have days I'm such a person that gives grace and I'm trying to do the right thing
Starting point is 01:00:03 I'm a very positive person I'm peaceful you know what I mean like I love good vibrations word so I may have a day I think we all have our days we all have a moment but that is not how I enter a relationship or that's not how I move in general you know for me I want peace y'all I've been through so much in this industry and if you know my story you know I've just been through a lot of hardships so absolutely not i want somebody to bring me some peace i have enough to struggle and deal with in in life so i like the record uh insane because it shows the contrast between like physical and emotional detachment after a breakup and you say i'm in love with that won't change can't promise that i'm all because if you come calling i'm already on my way and that reminds me it's like
Starting point is 01:00:48 insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results come on why was it necessary for you to talk about that aspect of it to me i was just giving people both perspectives you know what i mean like like i say it's a diary so i had to be honest with myself and a lot of these um songs are stories. And there was a point in time where I was stuck to a person. And I think a lot of women have been there, especially when we're young. You know what I mean? We're comfortable. It feels good at the moment.
Starting point is 01:01:15 And you don't realize until you step back, I was really in something I shouldn't have been in. So that was me reflecting. You know what I mean? And I think, honestly, that's probably the best song that people really love on the album because it's just honesty do you think guys be intentionally trying to f**k women over or do you think that listen there's guys i might have the best intentions i really like this woman but then you know sometimes i just make irrational decisions you can say poor choices poor choices you know because i like i'm not trying to break your heart i think it's a bit of both i think at a certain age you know what you're doing
Starting point is 01:01:48 you know at a certain point in your life you know we're not we're not in high school or grammar school so everything is a choice for me in 2024 it's just a toxic era you know what i'm saying a lot of it has to do with our influences and what we're listening to what we're seeing on instagram and what we think is fly and cool to do a lot of man you know they heard a woman just because that's that's what they guys is doing what you know what I'm saying they feed an awful what everybody else is on so it's a choice it's a choice I don't think you know like I said guys know what they doing you think it's also hard dating somebody or being with somebody in the industry
Starting point is 01:02:24 oh yes because that's it's a total difference it's not a it's not an average life it's it's more of a difficult life and if you don't understand it your insecurities take over that has a lot to do with on both sides it's a lot harder like you say uh you have to be secure and um it's so much temptation in this industry guys that are in the industry they have a lot a lot more to offer so it's more women and it's more dms and it's more um like i say distractions and everybody is accessible in the industry so absolutely it's 10 times harder but that's why i say i wouldn't mind dating a a regular guy you would date a nice hard-working nine-to-five brother i sure would a hard-working honest man okay would you date a guy in the industry again? I'm not against it, but I'm open to everything.
Starting point is 01:03:07 I think the industry, like I said, the industry just plays a part, like the distractions. So I would totally date an honest, working man. Okay, now let's get to it. Which one of these songs is about hit maker? Is it Huh? Is it Stressin'? Is it Bless Me, Don't Stress Me? Is it Lows and Highs?
Starting point is 01:03:21 Is it Hit and Lick? Is it Make It Make Sense? Which one? Charlamagne. Listen, I feel like the entire album could relate to him or to any man. You know what I mean? I purposely waited to drop this album so that it wasn't 14 songs about one person. But in this situation, if you know our history, we went through a lot of turmoil.
Starting point is 01:03:42 So there's a bit of him in a lot of these a lot of these records and he knows that we worked on the album together how was that uh that process was different for me it took a lot of maturity for me to get in that booth and for us to come to agreement on these songs we had hard days where he had to walk out and that's just what it is i couldn't did y'all have to have a conversation before? Because, I mean, y'all were together. Like you said, it was toxic at times. But y'all make great music with each other. Most people would have been like, F that. I ain't working with him.
Starting point is 01:04:12 You know, most women probably would have been like, I can't see him again. But y'all were able to. How was that conversation? And who put that together where y'all said, you know, let's squash this out and do this together? Yeah, I had to take the emotion out of it. And we were already in a contract. So there were obligations. And that's what I think the world doesn't know. You know, we already had ties and things were already in motion. So like I say, it took a lot of maturity
Starting point is 01:04:37 to say, hey, I'm gonna go in this booth. I'm gonna do my best today. You know what I'm saying? Whatever I can give, if it's 10's 10 20 that's the best i can give you know that that's also why it did take some time because i needed time away to get my mind together i can't look at you today i can't you know i can't be around you listening to what you want to say right now so i give god a lot of credit it took a lot for me to put this album out did you say is it true that he asked you for two million dollars because he was mad that you wanted to go do a project independently? I will say that we did have a contract in place.
Starting point is 01:05:11 The details of the contract are really personal. And that's where I was at fault at. You know, sometimes it's best to just lay low about details and things like that. But Hitmaker was paid. And I think that's fair to say he knows it. And that's the reason I went forward. Because if I'm putting my money and I'm investing into something i need all of mine in return all right we got more with tink when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning everybody it's dj envy just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club now we're still kicking it with tink her album
Starting point is 01:05:40 winter's diary is out right now now how is doing the album because you got a lot of sexual songs oh yeah there's a lot of songs that very intimate very sexy gives you put you in that did y'all get to a point where it rekindled anything after going through all that at all no i haven't been in that space with hitmaker for a long time and that's the that's the gag that everybody doesn't know like i've been so focused on the music. I don't have time to really even entertain him or vice versa. You know, I think it's best that we keep things business. And the pleasure is what I think made things go left. Would you put your next relationship on the gram like this one was?
Starting point is 01:06:17 Absolutely not. Because you guys. No, thank you. Y'all would just. Please. Take safe something. He safe something return. So when you get this nice UPS guy.
Starting point is 01:06:24 Yeah. You're not gonna put that On the ground Not at all I'ma post his arm I'ma post his The back of his head Or
Starting point is 01:06:33 You know I think privacy Is so good Privacy helps so much Y'all When the world knows It's It's an extra weight
Starting point is 01:06:40 So To my ladies y'all Please Save it for you Keep it Keep it private It's so much peace in privacy what was the most i don't want to say embarrassing but what was the thing that came out that you weren't most proud of i remember they said you put hands on him of course that honestly
Starting point is 01:06:56 was the peak for me if anybody knows me y'all know i'm not even the internet type of person I go live maybe twice a year um so to be live doing that it it did strike a nerve in me because uh who I am as a person is so much better than that and I'm very private so it came as a shock but I'm a real woman and I want people to know that life is full of ups and downs lows and highs lows and highs thank you charlamagne thank you that was perfect but yeah life is full of lows and highs and um i think it gave people just a insight of you know my reality i'm not just a perfect person i never want to come across like i'm perfect so i don't regret it but that was like a peak moment that i look back and i say i'm gonna learn from that and do better when you when you talk about the song Lows and Highs, have you healed from the things you say in that record?
Starting point is 01:07:49 Because you say, still up on my grind, can't get caught up in no feelings, trying to move forward, but my heart's still healing for real. But you've been getting colder by the days, popping 30 for the pain. Are you out of that space? I think anybody that goes through something traumatic, you can be out of a space, but there's moments where you'll have your days. So I'm healed. But, you know, tomorrow, something I might read something or I might see something that triggers me. I am so human. I don't have a filter on me, so I'm still healing.
Starting point is 01:08:19 I'm in the process. You feel like people don't see the work that you put in or look past you, right? Because the way you came in the game, you came in so strong, right? Yeah. And it was like, you didn't do damn near everything. You didn't work with every artist you wanted to work with. You probably done written for every artist. You platinum, you're gold, you're on tour.
Starting point is 01:08:37 Sold out arenas, by the way. And when we say sold out, they say we just put the tarp on a third level. I mean, sold out, sold out. So do you feel like people look past you at times i do i do um i won't lie and be like no i feel like i'm getting all my just do there are a lot of days where i want to be included in the conversation and for me that is what keeps me working like i'm not satisfied yet i'm not throwing in a towel yet i still got work to do but in the last few years y'all
Starting point is 01:09:05 honestly i feel like the attention is there my audience is growing the flowers are being given so i don't mind taking the stairs you know what i'm saying the hard work is giving me so much discipline so when when you do see me getting that grammy or getting that award um you'll know it's really hard work nobody paid nobody to do this um you know what i mean nobody spoon fed me this i really worked my ass off to make it here so i don't mind it a lot of people come up and it's just as quick as they come up they can come down so i'm not mad at my process every artist is different you know i'm a motivation for the girls just like me that ain't running around trying to make it in one day you know like let's persevere y'all let's put the work in i don't mind do you
Starting point is 01:09:50 feel like the comparisons help or hurt right because i think a lot of times we compare compare artists and i think it hurts them like because i remember when you first came out they were like she's the next lauren hill oh she's the female jay-z and it was like why do we put those comparisons tink is tink and she's absolutely you know it was too early first of all to even say something like that i think um it was a statement about alia and like i said lauren um and when you have a lot of work to do you know people are gonna jump on that attack that so um let let an artist be an artist everybody is different i'm trying to be who god made me to be although I do get influenced from them I am certainly not the next Aaliyah I am I am Tink so yeah that can that can
Starting point is 01:10:31 definitely hurt a person's growth because people are then compare their stats and their numbers and and it's like okay well she ain't making no progress but in reality you're doing it on your own time why do you why do you keep the pencil writing in is that like that's like your Lil Wayne lighter flick I love that yeah it actually is it's like the the brand for witness diary my first mixtape i came in with the pencil so you know as soon as you hit a pencil you know it's about to it's about to get real uh pretty girls that feels like an affirmation song encouraging women to just prioritize themselves and self-love over toxic relationships absolutely that's why it's the last
Starting point is 01:11:05 song i wanted to leave my girls with um an uplifting message you know after all the toxicity in the album it's like never forget who you are and don't settle for less and you know what i mean if a man doesn't um see your worth he gotta he gotta go and i feel like that song resonates because uh as black women we want to be told we pretty. And we want to hear that we worth, you know, we worth something. So, yes, pretty girls, pretty girls. We don't settle. We don't slip.
Starting point is 01:11:34 We don't trip. And you asked on Instagram, you asked people which winner's diary was their favorite. Yes. So people got to ask you, which one is your favorite? Which one resonates with you? Come on, y'all. The five. The number five.
Starting point is 01:11:47 I feel like this is such progression. You know, my early mixtapes, I was in the basement. Audio was clipped. It was a lot of static. I think this album is so polished. It's so raw. You know, I tried to make sure that I made an album about all my phases. You know what I'm saying? The downs.
Starting point is 01:12:03 There's the highs. There's the record player for my girls that like to get wild you know just a well-cultivated album i touched on everything in this one so that's why it's gonna be my favorite is this the last one never oh you okay i feel like i still have more to say you know they really been pressing me for a deluxe so i got some more work to do but it's never done for me my story will never be done i'm gonna take this to the grave, y'all. I'm one of those artists, I feel like I got so much more in me.
Starting point is 01:12:29 I'm just now touching that surface. So I'm excited, y'all. This is not my last winter diary. So if you find love, which you will, will the pen change? Will those songs be about, will they be like the greatest love songs we ever heard? Yeah, the pencil is still going to be there. Okay. But I love to make love songs. My earlier winter diaries, there were so many love songs. ever heard yeah the pencil is still gonna be there okay but i love to make love songs my earlier winter stories there was so many love songs that'll always hey guys i'm kate

Like when guys make all these lovemaking records and they talk all this shit about what they're going to do and they get in the band and then when you writing Grip Tight h2o and all that are you do you feel the pressure to

Starting point is 01:19:34 All right, so Kevin Hart understands Tom Brady's regrets. So back in May, we know Kevin Hart hosted the live Tom Brady roast on Netflix. And shortly after that, Tom Brady appeared on the Pivot podcast, which I've done as well. Shout out to Ryan Clark and those good brothers over there. And he shared his regrets about the roast. This is what he had to say.
Starting point is 01:19:53 I loved when the jokes were about me. I thought they were so fun. I didn't like the way that it affected my kids. So it's the hardest part about like the bittersweet aspect of when you do something that you think is one way. And then all of a sudden you realize I wouldn't do that again because of the way that affected actually the people that I care about the most in the world. So it's like I just want to like laugh.
Starting point is 01:20:15 It's a good lesson. Like for me as a parent, I'm going to be a better parent as I go forward because of it. Like if we're not laughing about things, we're crying. You're right about that. Yeah. Like, if we're not laughing about things, we're crying. You're right about that. Yeah, he was talking about protecting his children, and he just didn't think how it would affect his family. During the roast, comedians and other celebrities made jokes about Tom Brady's divorce from Gisele Bundchen, the Deflategate scandal,
Starting point is 01:20:38 and his relationship with former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick. Taylor Rooks recently sat down with Kevin Hart for the Bleacher Report and asked his thoughts on what Tom Brady had to say, because, like I said, he was the host. He understood where Tom was coming from, but he felt like the roast was still a good win for comedy. That's also what he said. You, of course, hosted the Tom Brady roast.
Starting point is 01:21:02 He, of course, later came out and said that he regretted doing it. you hear something like that where do you go and what do you do well he says he regretted doing it i don't think he's referring to the the it he means some of the jokes that he i think what he's referring to is saying i could have tapered it a little differently saying or having a conversation pre of like guys let's go and do this but let's not touch this or this and i think like the idea of going all in and just saying i don't care because i know the world would love to see me being on the receiving end because i'm tom brady and i've been at the highest stage level of my life so i think it was i think it was that although i can side with time and see where he's coming from and just him wanting to protect the idea of family and the conversation
Starting point is 01:21:44 attached to that i'm the wrong person to talk to about these things because i like to laugh and i can find the funny and everything and for me the darker the better like but when you tell jokes someone is going to get hurt for the most part right yeah but now when it's about his his family and they were they're actively going through it now right you know i mean so it's not like his kids are at an age where they're not going to see it or their friends are not going to talk about it they're going through divorce see it or their friends are not going to talk about it. They're going through divorce now. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:22:06 But if he does not tell us to, if he doesn't say that's off limits and we go there, you know, he kind of got to take that out. Not us. Yeah. Yeah, he did. He said he should have did it. He said he wouldn't have did it. That's on him. He should have told them, like, look, man, my family is off limits.
Starting point is 01:22:22 Yeah, keep my family out of it. You can do me all day. Pause. Whoa. Right? But my family's off limits. Keep my family out of it. You can do me all day. Pause. Whoa. Right? But my family's off limits. Whoa. And this is a roast.
Starting point is 01:22:30 And this is live. Ain't it live? So you can't even retract stuff. Yeah, but also, too, on that, if I'm making jokes about your divorce, it is you and your ex-wife getting divorced. But if I'm clowning you and you're laughing about it, would that upset the ex? Because I am part of this. But they were joking that you lost your wife to the trainer or whoever it was.
Starting point is 01:22:57 But they kept saying all those things. No, that was somebody else. But they kept making jokes about that. But the kids got to see it. That ain't funny. Divorce ain't funny. Divorce can be very funny. Them kids ain't got to see it. Them kids ain't got to see it. That ain't funny. Divorce ain't funny. Divorce can be very funny. Them kids ain't got to see it.
Starting point is 01:23:08 Them kids ain't got to see it. How old is them kids? That is true, too. Them shows be having classifications for a reason. R and PG-13. Don't let the kids watch until they old enough to understand. Now you know. This is a roast.
Starting point is 01:23:20 When they go to school the next day, them rated R's and PG's ain't going to mean nothing. Your mama getting smashed by the traitor. There you go. They quoting jokes from the roast. And you the main one in school the next day. I can't wait to see his son. Teach your kids how to snap. See?
Starting point is 01:23:33 I got you. Maybe I feel, you know, differently because I am a comedian. I understand. I like Kevin's response, though. Like, while he can understand, you know, the idea of him respecting the family and stuff like that, it's just, it's comedy. It is what is what it is it's very limitless and this is something that you want it it's a roast you can't that's right you came in you called it tom brady roast yeah yeah listen you think the road's crazy let the heck you go a while and now they're gonna eat him alive can you imagine that is a family show exactly imagine an uncensored version of Wildin' Out with all them fools. What?
Starting point is 01:24:05 Just 85 South by themselves. Exactly. Going, get into that, man. Carlos Chico in D.C.? Come on, man. Uncensored? Crazy. Cut it out.
Starting point is 01:24:12 Moving on. Carly Russell returns to social media. If you don't remember who Carly Russell is, that's the girl who saw the baby walking down the highway right before faking her own kidnapping last July. The story gained a bunch of attention nationally and ended up with her pleading guilty to faking everything. She was arrested on two misdemeanor charges of falsifying an incident and police report. She was then sentenced to one year of supervised probation with mental health counseling, 100 hours of community service in order to pay $17,000 and well close to $18,000 in restitution to the city of Hoover, Alabama. One year later, it's Shorty's birthday. She's back on social media
Starting point is 01:24:53 and that's what she decided to say. She said, I wasn't going to make a birthday post, but I would be remiss not to publicly acknowledge the goodness God has shown me. he not only allowed me to see another year, but he changed the trajectory trajectory of my whole life Happy 27th birthday to me. She thanked everybody who supported her whether it was a tag So people reaching out there on social media and she received a lot of backlash for the post and eventually deleted it Somebody was like, girl, shut up. Why did you do it though? And then somebody said, this is not the time, Carly. Don't stop. We don't have time
Starting point is 01:25:32 right now. So yeah. People don't even think it's her birthday? Yeah, I just think she came out a little too early. She needs a roast. She needs a roast. I'm telling you. One good, that's all. They should do the roast to Carly Russell. Everybody will be cool. And just let it get. She won't get no more smoke telling you. One good. That's all. They should do the roast to Carly Russell. Everybody will be cool.
Starting point is 01:25:47 Just let it. Yeah. She won't get no more smoke. Yep. Then she can come back to social media. That's it. A roast can't be an answer to everything. Yes, it can. Let's get a roast.
Starting point is 01:25:55 Especially stuff like this. What? You saw another year, but did you see that baby though? Did you ever see the baby? Now you can say, oh, what? How are we supposed to believe that you can see anything right even your birthday right yo you stupid it ain't even your birthday anyway that's just what the mess all right thank you jess charlamagne who gave him that donkey too
Starting point is 01:26:17 man we need sean grayson uh the officer who murdered sonja macy massey to come to the front of the congregation we'd like to have a word with him, please. All right. We'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Some donkey today just saw themselves. I've been watching you, Charlamagne.
Starting point is 01:26:35 I was ready for you. What is it? I'm a donkey. I never heard of a donkey the other day. What is it? I'm a donkey. Say it again, Charlamagne. I'm a donkey.
Starting point is 01:26:44 Yes. You are a donkey. I'll. Yes, you are a dunk. Everything that Charlamagne is saying is true. Yeah, dunking today for Wednesday, July 24th goes to Sean Grayson. If you don't know who Sean Grayson is, he's a 30-year-old San Gamon County Sheriff's Deputy who has been fired from his position because he murdered 36 year old Sonia Massey in cold blood. Sonia, rest in peace to Sonia Massey. Sonia had called 9-1-1 to report a possible prowler at her home in Springfield, Illinois. And then this happened.
Starting point is 01:27:16 Let's go to CBS News Chicago for the report, please. President Joe Biden responded to the shooting, saying that Massey should still be here tonight. She called 9-1- 911 to report a prowler near her home and an encounter quickly takes a deadly turn. We do want to warn you that this video is hard to watch. Body camera video shows Sonia Massey opening the door for Sangamon County Deputy Sean Grayson and his partner earlier this month. What took you so long to answer the door? Oh, I was trying to put on some clothes, sir. You doing all right mentally? Yes.
Starting point is 01:27:45 Sure? My medicine's done. Once inside her Springfield home, Deputy Grayson asked Massey to check on the stove. The situation quickly escalates. Where you going? Away from your hot steam and water. Away from my hot steam and water? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:27:58 Oh, I would repent you in the name of Jesus. I'd puke you in the name of Jesus. You better f***ing not. That's where you're going to f***ing shoot your f in the face. Massey begins to apologize. Grayson fired three times hitting Massey in the face. You know what else do we do? I'm not taking hot boiling water to his face.
Starting point is 01:28:20 He clearly knew she dealt with some mental health issues because he asked her how she's doing mentally. She told him she took her medicine. Sending healing energy to the family of Sonia Massey. I would never understand how so many police officers just forget to protect and serve part of their job. There is really nothing I'm going to say this morning that I haven't said a million times before. Police officers, you have the power, all of it. You got guns, a a badge this woman had a
Starting point is 01:28:46 pot of boiling water she's not thinking about you unless you an egg okay a hot dog a bag of tea that woman sonia massey told you i rebuke you in the name of jesus you know why because she could feel the negativity coming off you because she felt your energy she felt your spirit and she rebuked that demon in the name of jesus only for you to prove her right. By shooting her dead for no damn reason. If you feel threatened, tell her to back away from the boiling water. If she doesn't comply, then leave. I don't want to go stand in the yard, sit in the car, call for backup.
Starting point is 01:29:18 Send somebody who knows how to de-escalate the situation if you don't. But to shoot her? I personally think sean grayson should be charged with premeditated murder if you say to me i'll shoot you in the face before you shoot me in the face that sounds premeditated to me now sonja massey's family is calling for a probe into the hiring of sean grayson because they don't understand how he was hired in the first place he's worked at six different law enforcement agencies in four years he was charged with dui twice it's unclear why sean grayson changed jobs
Starting point is 01:29:45 so frequently cnn has reached out to other law enforcement agencies for more information i don't think they've got any yet i don't know what to say man i don't know what to do um i study stoicism if you don't know what stoicism is it teaches the development of self-control as a means of overcoming destructive emotions um it encourages people to focus on what they can control and accept what they cannot leading to emotional resilience and inner strength uh and today's daily stoic was somewhere someone's dying i want to play it for you it's only like it's less than a minute long and i don't necessarily agree with all of it especially when it comes to a situation like Sonia Massey.
Starting point is 01:30:25 But I want to play it for y'all and see what y'all think, because we're just a community always trying to figure things out and work our way through things. I just want to know what y'all think of this. We talk about it in the room. Let's play it. A well-meaning friend might ask you today, what do you think about insert tragedy from the other side of the world? You and your equally well-meaning concern might say, I just feel awful about it. In this scenario, both of you have put aside your reasoned choice without doing a single thing for the victims suffering from the actual tragedy. It can be so easy to get distracted by, even consumed by,
Starting point is 01:30:58 horrible news from all over the world. The proper response of the stoic to these events is not to not care, but mindless, meaningless sympathy does very little either and comes at the cost of one's own serenity in most cases. If there is something you can actually do to help these suffering people, then yes, the disturbing news and your reaction to it has relevance to your reasoned choice. If emoting is the end of your participation, then you ought to get back to your own individual duty, to yourself, to your family, to your country. I see basically what I take from that, you know, even though he's talking about something out of the country,
Starting point is 01:31:34 but basically what I take from that is most of the grief about things happening somewhere to someone else, you know, is actually hypocrisy. And I don't want that to be the case. Like when I hear stories like Sonia Massey, I do feel horrible. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.
Starting point is 01:31:49 Definitely wouldn't want it to be someone in my family. Definitely wouldn't want it to be a friend that I know. But I also say to myself, these situations happen. We feel bad. We report on them. We go to social media with them. But then what?
Starting point is 01:32:01 Outside of emoting, what are we really doing? This affirmation is also saying that if you can't do anything to immediately change the situation, then we should probably move on with our lives. That is what I completely disagree with. Because that's one of the reasons I believe these things keep
Starting point is 01:32:13 happening. It's because so many of us don't do enough. I just don't know what it is we can do. Please let Chelsea Handler give Sean Grayson the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw hee-haw hee-haw that is way too much dan maynays i just don't know what what it is we can do it feels like every few months we're telling stories like this yeah what do we do to change it like i really truly
Starting point is 01:32:38 i personally have no idea i would have to reach out to tamika mallory or one of the activists or you know a lawmaker that i know i don't know what toika mallory or one of the activists or you know a lawmaker that i know i don't know what to do yeah and then i seen the video it was this video servicing now when he when other cops after he killed her other cops that came to the scene or whatever and questioned him and he said she came at him with the the pot of water but we know that's not true line like you know now you lying we see the video it's the video but that's what i mean we see videos like this all the time we know the officers be lying we but what do we do i feel like we're just telling the same story over and
Starting point is 01:33:15 over every few months well at this at this point i feel like police officers have to be held liable in situations like this right because what would it make somebody think twice and maybe say you know what i might not be as aggressive i might not use my firearm in a way that i'm not supposed to is if i have to do jail time if i if i'm sued if i'm all that because if you give them immunity then they feel like they're above the law but if this officer he was what fired immediately he's probably and hopefully gonna go to jail for a long time because there was no reason to shoot that woman but once again maybe you're absolutely right but we've had these conversations a million times we've talked about eliminating qualified immunity how do we make these things apps actually
Starting point is 01:33:52 happen we've talked about you know getting the george floyd policing act passed what do we do to press to make this legislation type of legislation happen that's what i'm saying that's what i want to know i'm just disgusted by the whole thing he he even was like man that bitch was crazy even in the video of them telling him that like i mean him lying on her saying that she came at him with the water just the way he was talking about it like yeah like headshot and the bitch was crazy nah don't don't get the kid you know headshot she's she's dead i'll shoot you in the effing face. Who talks to people like that? And then they had to know her.
Starting point is 01:34:26 Like you said, Shalemini, they asked her. This wasn't their first encounter with her. Absolutely. Because he's like, are you okay mentally? Like, and she said she took a meds, you know, so.
Starting point is 01:34:34 And even saying the beat is crazy afterwards. Like, that lets me know you knew her. Yeah. So. I just don't know what it is we can do. Yeah. Because everybody's going to move on. Except for that family. All right. Except for's going to move on, except for that family.
Starting point is 01:34:46 All right. Except for the family. Well, thank you for that donkey today. All right. Now, when we come back, let's clear it up a little bit. Let's release a little bit. Woosah, woosah, woosah. All right.
Starting point is 01:34:57 Tink was here this morning. You know, Tink has a new project that's out right now. It's called Winter's Diary 5. Now, on that that project she worked with heat maker now you know uh heat maker youngberg they were in a relationship but they were able the fact that their relationship didn't work they broke up it was a nasty relationship they were able to still work with each other to finish this project so the question is 800-585-1051 are you able to work with the ex after you guys have broken up, especially a nasty breakup?
Starting point is 01:35:27 That is the question. 800-585-1051. Are you able to work with your ex after a nasty breakup? Let's discuss. It's The Breakfast Club. Yo, my man called. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. morning everybody it's dj envy just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club

Starting point is 01:36:34 contract so there were obligations and that's what I think the world doesn't know you know we already had ties and things were already in motion so like I say it took a lot of maturity to say, hey, I'm going to go in this booth. I'm going to do my best today. You know, that's also why it did take some time because I needed time away to get my mind together. I can't look at you today.
Starting point is 01:36:56 I can't be around you listening to what you want to say right now. So I give God a lot of credit. It took a lot for me to put this album out. Hey, business is like babies, man. You know what I'm i'm saying like you gotta watch who you co-create with and you gotta watch who you're going business with because you're gonna be stuck with that person you know for to a long period of time when it comes to a baby you're gonna be stuck with that person for possibly really life right if the person's in the person's life but with the business like yeah as long as y'all got that business together y'all gonna be in some type of relationship that ain't gonna work

Don't start that because people think I'm gay. I'm not gay. Don't start that. What you mean, think? I ain't going to be a little gay.

Starting point is 01:44:32 don't s*** where you eat? Yes, we've heard that. That means you don't work with nobody. You don't date nobody you work with because it never ends up well at all. That's right. That's right. Never, never, never ends up well.
Starting point is 01:44:44 You end up not resenting the person if you get fired and you're still dating y'all you end up resenting the person what if the person is your boss so that means she's your boss at work and at the house too it don't it never works it never works you're right you ain't lying another uh the only other thing i want to say is, is Camilla Harris Buttigieg or president? Is Buttigieg, is Camilla Harris

I mean, we're both in our older years. Yes, sir. But, see, the thing is, after it happened, she started noticing that all the young ladies that were working there started to want me.

Ain't trying gotta be in no trouble yes sir yes sir well you have a blessed day my brother you keep on pimping pimping wait wait wait wait wait is that jessie larry she there yes she right how you doing how you doing pretty mama look girl

Starting point is 01:48:50 That is the question, especially after y'all broke up and it was toxic. Let's discuss. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. If y'all talking about it, you know we talking about it. It's topic time call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the breakfast club morning everybody is dj envy just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club now if you're just joining us we had a conversation
Starting point is 01:49:19 with tink this morning she was talking about working with hitmaker uh after they you know they were dating and it was toxic so we talked about her dating in that type of environment and this is what she said well her doing an album working together in that type of environment and this is what she said we worked on the album together it took a lot of maturity for me to get in that booth and for us to come to agreement on these songs we had hard days where he had to walk out and that's just what it is yeah i had to had to take the emotion out of it. And we were already in a contract. So there were obligations. And that's what I think the world doesn't know. You know, we already had ties and things were already in motion. So like I say, it took a lot of maturity to say, hey,
Starting point is 01:50:02 I'm going to go in this booth. I'm going to do my best today. You know, that's also why it did take some time. Because I needed time away to get my mind together. I can't look at you today. I can't, you know, I can't be around you listening to what you want to say right now. So I give God a lot of credit. It took a lot for me to put this album out. So we're asking 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 01:50:23 Could you work with an ex, especially after a horrible breakup? Hello, who's this? Hey, good morning. It's Anthony from California. Hey, Anthony from California. What's your thoughts? Hey, good morning, y'all. First of all, God is good.
Starting point is 01:50:36 All the time. I'm from California. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. What up, Uncle Charlie? What up, B.J. What up, Jeff? Peace, King.
Starting point is 01:50:41 What's up, bro? What up? What up? What up? What up? All right, yeah. So to answer the question, I think it just depends on the situation of the breakup and the working life at the same time
Starting point is 01:50:49 because, like, I ain't trying to be working on my ex-ex-husband if my boss doesn't smash and we all got to work together. Like, that just ain't going to happen. But, like, you know, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big,
Starting point is 01:50:59 if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big,
Starting point is 01:50:59 if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big,
Starting point is 01:50:59 if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big,
Starting point is 01:50:59 if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, if it's like a big, and if y'all have a good business together, then y'all can still make things happen. Also compared to like, you know, kind of being in a marriage and getting divorced and having a co-parent, you know,
Starting point is 01:51:11 like depending on the breakup, y'all can still do this job together great as co-parents and not have no drama, you know? So that's kind of how it is. That's sound advice, because it really just depends on the breakup, right? Because you know, you don't want to be in business with a person you found out was lying to you or cheating on you or doing you dirty
Starting point is 01:51:28 because that says more about the person's character right you don't want to be in business with somebody a bad character yes sir and then one more thing man i just want to say real quick i want to shout out my wife uh she's gonna wake up like i said we in california so we all listen to y'all on youtube and everything and it's like i just live the east early, so it's my first time in college. So, you got a bit, I got you, brother. Thank you, brother. Appreciate you, K. Just a lot of energy, alright? Thank you so much.
Starting point is 01:51:54 Hello, who's this? This is Paul Brown. Hey, Paul Brown. What's your opinion? What's your thoughts, Paul? Well, my thought of it is toxic. When people have toxic energy in general, you can't be around them because they don't even know they're toxic. So I think the best thing to do is just sever it, even if it's a business, because you're going to lead to disaster. I agree.
Starting point is 01:52:16 Especially with an ex. That's horrible. Like, most folks aren't mindful enough to sit back and understand that they're dealing with somebody who had toxic energy, whether it be a relationship with them, with like a sexual relationship or a friendship. So the first thing you got to do is get grounded, figure out how this person's toxic, infecting you, and leave it alone. I agree, my brother.
Starting point is 01:52:35 I love putting distance between me and somebody else. Hey, but I'll tell you what, look, Charlie, man, you remind me of Petey Green, dog. That's one of my idols, my brother. Thank you. You one of my idols. You one of my idols. DJ Envy, I love what y'all doing, yo.
Starting point is 01:52:51 Keep the energy going, and I contributed to Kamala Harris' campaign. Let's go. Oh, you donated to Act Blue? That's what's up. Hell yeah. That's dope, my brother. That's love.
Starting point is 01:53:01 I'm happy that you did that. I'm just happy that people, and not to get off the sidetrack, but I'm just happy people are energized about the election. I don't care who people choose to vote for, but I'm just happy that now people want to be involved because, boy, we were sleeping about two weeks ago. But Charlamagne, listen, the best part about this,
Starting point is 01:53:20 the timing of it, it happened after the attempted assassination, so they took all the immediate attention back that's true that's true so i'm super energized and again i love y'all i'm gonna let y'all go to y'all next caller y'all are incredible y'all keep it going yes sir thank you thank you hello who's this this is monica hey monica what's your what's your thoughts monica good morning um for one i want to say good morning to all of you guys. I've been listening to you guys in the morning. I honestly feel like, like Charlamagne said, it's the baby situation.
Starting point is 01:53:55 That was my take on it. So I have multiple baby fathers. One passed away. Got out of school. But if you can work with your child's father, if you can co-parent with your child's father, I feel like it's definitely possible to work with the ex. Now, long term, that's a different situation. But on certain projects where it's like you said, it's your baby, I feel like it's definitely possible. Once you master communication, staying in your lane, you know, I feel like it makes it easy.
Starting point is 01:54:21 Also, trust comes into it, too. You have to be able to trust that person that, you know, we're both on the same page. Yeah, but I think with a child, you have to do it. There is no choice. There is no option with an ex. Yeah, but that's a difference. That's a difference. You have a choice.
Starting point is 01:54:36 Yeah. I feel like there's a difference. You don't have a choice. But because that is there, you can definitely do it. It's not something that it can't be done like the question was can it be done it can be done but you know that situation you have no choice but if you have something like she said that was her baby so that was that's what she fell on that's what she thought about it so it's the same take to me i i get what you're saying this
Starting point is 01:55:01 is all as i said it all depends on the. It all depends how messy the breakup was. That's all. Yeah. Okay. And if we ain't know who, if we ain't know, if we didn't see who Jeannie was, Jeannie Jenkins, she would be. Jeannie Jenkins definitely sound black. Definitely black, right? Like an old black aunt.
Starting point is 01:55:19 I'm like, I know she happy about that little divorce. Like, you know what? Never mind. Let me rethink this. Jeannie Jenkins. Jamie Jenkins. Lord Jesus. We got the mess coming up. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:31 They said Spongebob was autistic. For real. For real. That's what they said. All right. Well, we'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Logo Morning. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:55:41 It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get to just with the mess news is real whether it's just a robin moore just don't do no lie she don't spare nobody worldwide just worldwide on the breakfast club she's a culture 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 all right so they said spongebob squarepants is autistic no yes i always thought that no you didn't no you did not why is he autistic listen the voice actor tom kenney was at the 2024 Motor City Comic Con in Detroit.
Starting point is 01:56:26 When he explained that SpongeBob, you know, he had autism, this is what he had to say. Because SpongeBob's kind of on the spectrum, too, as a character. And this last con that I did in South Texas, in McAllen, Texas, it was the first time I'd ever been asked this question. A person who was, you know, obviously on the spectrum came up to me and said, I have a question for you, Tom Kenny. Is SpongeBob autistic? Is SpongeBob himself autistic? And I said, yes, of course.
Starting point is 01:56:52 I said, of course he is. And I said, that's his superpower. It's the same thing. It's your superpower. It's the same thing as Jenna's superpower. So he's just making stuff up to appease people. That's what it seems like. He's not really autistic. If he'd have walked up and said, is SpongeBob's what it seems like. He don't seem like it.
Starting point is 01:57:05 He's not really autistic. If he'd have walked up and said, is SpongeBob gay? He'd be like, of course he is. Right, of course. Of course he is. You know, it's like, stop it. Cut it out. You ain't thinking about that until that man or woman said that to you.
Starting point is 01:57:15 Yeah, obviously, yeah. But this night's first time mentioning it. In 2012, while Tom was on Mark Maron's with the F podcast. He said, I don't know what there is in that show that talks to kids that are on the autistic spectrum, but Spongebob as a character is a little autistic. And so that's when he started
Starting point is 01:57:35 running with it. You know what I'm saying? Some of the signs of Spongebob's autism include him being obsessed with his job, very hardworking, gets really, really deep into something. That's like everybody.
Starting point is 01:57:49 That's like everybody. I don't mean you're autistic. That's like everybody. N****s, yo. Hardworking, obsessed with their job. That could be a Mexican. What? First of all.
Starting point is 01:57:57 That's what I'm saying. I don't mean they autistic. And we got to start asking them questions. As soon as that dude be like, SpongeBob's autistic explain that then explain why is he autistic what makes Spongebob
Starting point is 01:58:09 autistic well if certain people can claim autism without a doctor so can Spongebob's quip we all like to get deep into stuff
Starting point is 01:58:18 there's stuff that you probably deep into right now like people are deep into some type of conspiracy theory right now deep into politics like there's something
Starting point is 01:58:24 that people get deep into right now And they all know they're on the spectrum. Yep, and Spongebob had mad friends Especially Patrick child. I was like, oh my god, it's not might be going on there Like I ain't never think about Spongebob being autistic, but I always thought that Patrick was a little on the Patrick seem a little bit Yeah, you know, but um But that's what he said. In 2018 and 2020, Tom received the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Performer and an Animated Program
Starting point is 01:58:51 for his work on SpongeBob. So congrats to that man and all that. To get it over here. Yeah. Right, yeah. Well, stop that. Take your freaking charge like a man and stop, you know, ruining the ocean, getting these sharks sharks hired and you wonder why these sharks go out and attack people and now we got a negative you know stigma about sharks meanwhile they high off cocaine they ain't
Starting point is 01:59:12 even asked for they will attack you when they not high so just imagine a high on coke shark what if they're always high on coke we don't even know what if sharks don't even bother nobody but the only reason they're attacking people is because they get high on cocaine and they out of they freaking shark they got munchies maybe they got the munchies maybe it's kind of like weed they just hungry i don't think coke give you the munchies envy what you said is in a report it said there's no confirmation where the cocaine came from but people speculate that they're from drug smugglers losing products in the sea or nearby illegal drug you said. You said Columbia. That's what made me think that. Does Coke give you the munchies, Jeff? Nope, never.
Starting point is 01:59:48 When I took it. Yeah, I think it takes... I've heard it ruins your appetite. I smoked it once in a blunt by accident, but... No, not by accident. No, don't even try. What am I working with here? Look, Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 01:59:59 Don't even try. We've lived a life. I ain't never put it in no blunt. And never gonna try to do that. No, I smoked it in a blunt by accident somebody had a place to blunt with a coke coke and weed I mean was weed but they put coke in yeah that's a different way to ingest you got to ingest it do your nose okay science has predicted that the small sharks were likely extra aggressive and they may have been raging
Starting point is 02:00:21 chomping on smaller fish sounds funny but experts say this is a troubling sign for the ecosystem. So, you know. I wonder how that cocaine-laced shark meat tastes, though. Mmm. You see what I'm saying? It's a little different. It's a little different. Okay.
Starting point is 02:00:39 All right. Do we got time for another story? No. All right. Thank you, Jeff. No problem. Yeah. Thank you, Jeff. I'll tell y'all about Lee Dames and Monique DeMille. It can wait. All No. All right. Thank you, Jess. No problem. Yeah. I'll tell y'all about
