She has a book Drama Free out right now. A Guide to Managing Unhealthy Family Relationships. Let me tell you something about Najra Tawab. Y'all know I talked about her book

Because you got to manage these unhealthy family relationships. You know what I mean? Because I'll just be cutting you off. You still got to say. It don't matter.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Family can go to you. You ain't got to tell me. Okay? All right. Well, don't you got an event with her, I thought? Yeah, tomorrow, but it's sold out, so no need to mention it. Okay. Talk that talk.
Starting point is 00:03:30 Talk that talk. Big place. Talk that talk. I'm going to tell it this morning. All right. I'll mention it later, man. Let's get into some front page news. We got to talk about your president, Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:03:39 He said, I'm a white boy, but I ain't stupid. You could have fooled me. We'll talk about it when we come back it's the breakfast club good morning everybody it's dj mv charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we got our co-host dre and lex p from the poor minds podcast with us this morning and let's get in some front page news now joe biden was uh speaking out of black history month reception today is quote unquote the last day of Black History Month, February 28th. Yeah, but you can teach black history year-round.
Starting point is 00:04:07 That's what I said, quote-unquote. And he was talking about black history and what the schools should be teaching and how he feels about it. It's important to say from the White House for the entire country to hear history matters. History matters and black history matters. Look, I can't just choose to learn what we want to know. We learn what we should know. We have to learn everything, the good, the bad, the truth, and who we are as a nation. That's what great nations do.
Starting point is 00:04:35 That's what great nations do. And we're a great nation. I still think it's wild we're having this conversation. Right. The fact that we can't teach kids what black history, like, you know, certain kids feel a way because of how we were treated. Right. And how our ancestors were.
Starting point is 00:04:52 No, no, same. Wild. Yeah, and coming from the president, black history matters, but so does black legislation. So does black equity. That's what I want to hear you talking about. Right. No?
Starting point is 00:05:00 Well, he also says he's not a stupid white boy. You know, I'm not smart. I may be a white boy, but I'm not stupid. I know where the power is. You think I'm joking? I learned a long time ago about the Divine Nine. That's why I spent so much time at Delaware State campaigning and organizing my campaign in Delaware. Not the Divine Nine i bet you if you
Starting point is 00:05:25 told him the name the divine nine you heard i mean like i said it sounds good but i kind of get over like all the politicians trying to be relatable and be funny and being all right it's just it's too much like it really don't take much to impress us at all right a shout out yeah and we'd be excited. Invite them to the cookout. Man, ready to run through the wall for them. Right. Now, also, DeSantis is taking over the Disney district.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Now, I was really into this because every time I go to Disney, of course, I got six kids, so I go to Disney a lot. And I'm always intrigued how Disney ran its property. So if you don't know, Disney owns hundreds of thousands of acres in Florida, but the way they got the acres were they controlled the land, meaning they governed the land, they governed the power, they governed the water. Everything was controlled by them. Well, I guess, you know, the scientists
Starting point is 00:06:18 pissed them off with the don't say gay law, and now the scientists is taking everything over. So they're controlling everything. that's an overreach of power government shouldn't have that kind of control over over disney right and that's this was a this was something that was supposed to be like hundreds of years so the fact that they pulled that after 50 years is really crazy whatever he's trying to keep mickey from being with goofy what's going on oh my god what's going on here like what's happening here what's going
Starting point is 00:06:43 on what bothered him about disney that he felt like he had to overreach his power to get that kind of control? And that was part of the reason why they actually built Disney in Florida, because they can control their own stuff. So I don't know what that means. Disney invested too many billions and billions of dollars to move, but I don't know how that affects everything now. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, that's an overreach of government power, if you ask me. All right. Well, that is your front page news.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Now, next hour, I got to tell you about this white student who is suing Howard University. Oh, brother. Yeah. So we'll tell you about that next hour. How did y'all get from being so accepting? Racial discrimination, right? We'll talk about that next hour. Does he go to Howard?
Starting point is 00:07:20 I'll talk about it next hour. But he did go. He said he didn't like the way y'all were treating him. Okay. Well, I mean, it makes sense. Does it next time. But he did go when he said he didn't like the way y'all were treating him. Okay. Well, I mean, it makes sense. Does it? I mean, I'm saying it makes sense considering that he was probably one of the very few. Could you imagine him going to class every day?
Starting point is 00:07:35 What you mean? I mean, but if you're a white person going into Howard, you're accepting the fact that you're different. Right. But he also sent out some tweets that weren't a little racial. Were you tweeting YG lyrics? And then that's what I was saying. My nigga, my nigga. I want to talk about it next time, but he threw out some tweets
Starting point is 00:07:54 and then when he went to class, it was crack. Oh, people pressed him? Yeah. All day long. I gotta hear more. But get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

And let's get to the rumors let's talk cardi b through my hazard through my room i has it call out a name or you gossiping or you chatting i'm gossiping this is the rumor report i mean i guess we on the breakfast club this is where the tea spills right right on the breakfast club now uh cardi b she has to be doing, I'm not sure how many hours of community service. Actually, it says 15 days of community service. This is from a 2018 brawl she was involved in in a strip club in Queens. Yesterday, she said, community service has been the best thing that has happened to me. Almost like a spiritual journey because sometimes I leave these centers in tears.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Those people that we leave behind, they just need somebody to talk to and a little push, and you might be able to change their life forever. Dre lxp you ever had to do any community service you oh yeah you did uh but you know i lived a thug life you saw the feed too i had to do community service for fighting yeah when i was in high school like body yeah okay and then i had to do community service again in like 20, when was it? Oh, yeah. 18. What? Because they had tried to give me a DUI.
Starting point is 00:18:10 Oh, okay. But I got reckless driving instead and then I still had to do. What'd you have to do? What was the community service? Pick up trash off the side of the road in a little orange suit? You could pick the place. You could pick this. So I did Boys and Girls Club.
Starting point is 00:18:20 Oh, okay. I didn't know you could do that. A leader. Did you have to do any? No, I never did community service. I just went to jail. Where? Oh.
Starting point is 00:18:27 You just took the charge. I mean, you gotta take charge. See, I'm not usually a leader. You can plead out. But that could be part of the plea. Part of the plea
Starting point is 00:18:35 could be community service. Well, that's what usually what it is. I always ended up getting probation. Oh, no. I had to do the pick up the trash.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Oh, my God. So, I'm not only that's what I had to do in high school. I had to pick up the trash. I did that in college. I had to go pick up the trash. You did? Oh, my gosh. So I'm the only law-abiding citizen here? That's what I had to do in high school. I had to pick up the trash. I did that in college. I had to go pick up the trash. Y'all are not good people. Well, congratulations.
Starting point is 00:18:51 I follow the law. Did community service do for y'all what it did for Barty? No, because I had to pick up trash. Yeah, I mean, that's all I was doing, too. I was picking up trash. But when I did Boys and Girls Club, you know, it was nice. Yeah, that's got to be a touching feeling. It was.
Starting point is 00:19:02 You know, kicking it with the kids. You know what I mean? And I think that's good for Cardi, because I feel like, you know, in 2018, she was still Cardi B. So this is kind of like letting her know, like, you know, you don't have to do that no more. Right. You know what I'm saying? Beat people up?
Starting point is 00:19:13 Yeah. There's never really a statute of limitations on beating people up. You might get to a point where you pay people to do it. I'm weak. You got to chain check them. Every now and then. It's a little note. I'm playing with you.
Starting point is 00:19:24 I'm happy for her. I think that this is good for her. You know. Well, congratulations to Kiki Palmer as well. She gave birth yesterday. Welcomes her first child with her boyfriend, Darius Jackson. So, congratulations. The baby's name is Leotis Andrelton Jackson.
Starting point is 00:19:41 I know I said that all the time. A good black name. Yeah, I like Leotis. That's super black. I love Kiki. That's very black. I know I said that all the time. A good black name. Yeah, I like Leotis. That's super black. I love Kiki. That's very black. I love it. That's a Black History
Starting point is 00:19:49 Month name. They're going to be honoring that young man in about 2030. His first step's going to be a march. That's a civil rights name.
Starting point is 00:19:57 His first step's going to be a march. His first step's going to be a march. He's stupid. And lastly, Drake says he regrets name dropping his ex-girlfriends in his songs. I think like sometimes when I've like said girls' names in songs, maybe those are the two things that I look back on.
Starting point is 00:20:16 I'm like, maybe I could have done without like shitting on people for age or like disrupting somebody's life. I never, like the lyrics are never with ill intent but like i had somebody one time be like you know it's not necessarily what you're saying about me it's the fact that you've said it like you don't know what it does to me like you don't know who my boyfriend is at the time or you don't know who like what my family knows and doesn't know you know and if you did express like any form of discontent for me in a song and call me by name, then all of a sudden, like, I'm left to kind of, like, pick up the pieces in my own life that I've, like, tried to build up for myself.
Starting point is 00:20:54 I've, like, tried my best to stop doing that, but I like to be honest in music. That's real. I mean, what he's saying is, you know, I mean, if he wants to keep his own piece, he don't want to disrupt the piece of others. But there's been times Drake has name-dropped people's girls' names and songs on purpose. There's been a couple. There's been a couple. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:21:12 I feel like it's okay to talk about your experiences in music, but to name-drop, you're taking it a little too far. Yeah, he definitely say names a lot. But you know what's crazy, though? I don't think he ever would say anything that crazy, though. Because he's slick with the bars. Yeah, he's that crazy though. Because he's slick with the bars. Yeah, he's slick with the bars. He's slick with the bars.
Starting point is 00:21:28 He said some crazy stuff. But also, no man wants their woman to be rapped about, especially in a Drake song. You know what I'm saying? Hell no. Especially when it's a double entendre metaphor. That everybody's singing in the club, but you know that's directed towards you and yours
Starting point is 00:21:46 my god but i mean that gotta be good for some of the women though right because it means what you mean some of these women got they got them lit i agree i'll pipe you up for sure i ain't naming none of them i can't which one he got lit i don't know i can there's a few in my mind right now but i ain't saying yeah okay y'all go ahead and rattle some names off well we gotta do it because y'all are for my podcast i can think i mean i put it like this i don't know how lit they got i just know that i never heard of them until that happened but there was a couple of uh strippers yeah in houston that people knew already and i'm sure after that name dropped people started going to those clubs just to see them in particular even
Starting point is 00:22:30 more i didn't think about that i was only thinking about kiki that's what i was thinking about i don't know kiki that's the girl from canada right yeah that's the only one i don't think i was thinking about the scribbles.

He says he became a target for discrimination following his comments in a group chat with other students. After showing a picture of a slave beaten and bruised back, he said, but what did the slave do?
Starting point is 00:25:13 Come on now. Newman says he repeatedly apologized. He also says he faced hostility on campus. With students calling him Mayo White Panther. In a statement, the school says the school is prepared to vigorously defend itself in this lawsuit as the claims provide a one-sided and self-serving narrative of the events leading to the end of the students' enrollment at the university. This was a setup. All my brothers and sisters who was in that group chat, y'all got set up. Ain't no way that man, I know the picture he sent out,
Starting point is 00:25:48 that's the picture of the brother that Will Smith just played in Emancipation, I'm sure. You sent that picture to a group chat full of black people

Let's talk Omarion. Rumor has it. Rumor has it. Call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty patty. I am gossiping. This is
Starting point is 00:43:11 the Rumor Report. I mean, I guess we on the breakfast club. This is where the tea spills, right? Yes. On the breakfast club. Ah, man. Shout to Simone and Rachel from the Bronx. Now, Simone thought that she was in a relationship with Omarion.
Starting point is 00:43:29 She was being catfished. She even paid the gentleman or the person's phone bill and everything. She had no clue that it wasn't. Why you laughing? Come on now. Why would you pay a millionaire's phone bill? Y'all gotta
Starting point is 00:43:44 think. Hey, man. You should discern me. Stop hating on the city boys, man. Oh, my God. I knew you was going to say something. I don't understand the hate for the city boys out here getting bills paid by any means necessary. Okay.
Starting point is 00:43:56 Let's listen. She was on Dr. Phil. Why have you never met? His manager wants me to pay $3,000 to meet him. His manager wants you to pay $3,000 to meet someone that you're engaged to. He asked me to marry him last year. Right. Does that sound logical
Starting point is 00:44:14 to you? No, it doesn't. That's why I want to find out the truth. You live where? In the Bronx. And he rides his bike and goes to the mall. Why have you never met? His manager. What did your uncle get on his radio and tell y'all every other day?
Starting point is 00:44:32 The craziest people. The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. Oh, my gosh. You know what? Whoever took advantage of that lady because she didn't sound all the way there. Yeah, that sounds fair. It sounds like somebody took advantage of her y'all should be ashamed you think all the men that y'all um got money out had it all together i don't have to take advantage and emotionally they had it all together yeah
Starting point is 00:44:56 yeah and they deserved it okay see she didn't deserve that i mean i think like a sweet lady i do agree with you that's you know probably something, you know, mentally that's a little bit off. But I also feel like people that believe those type of things want to believe those kind of things. She wants to believe that fantasy. That probably is what got her through the day. She probably woke up every day happy to be talking to what she believes to be Omarion. Well, Omarion did a video for the young lady. It's crazy how far these people will go to convince and manipulate my fans to think that they are actually speaking with me.
Starting point is 00:45:29 From sending fake driver's license and passports, even FaceTiming them, claiming that there was a bad connection when they never even seen me. I'm so sorry, Simone. I haven't been speaking with you or not in the relationship. You haven't sent me any money I want everyone to be aware that if someone is online claiming to be me and asking for money That you are not speaking with me. I will never do that Poor young lady man You think you should and it's not no I don't want to worry to throw it I'm gonna say you think he should have... No, I don't want to throw it. I'm about to say, do you think he should have given her the money back? That would have been nice.
Starting point is 00:46:09 That would have been a nice gesture. It's not his fault in any way, shape, or form. But it would have been a nice gesture to say, here, take the three grand. But something in him might be like, well, maybe she really didn't give him three grand. Maybe she's halfway. Halfway what?

Who's Donkey of the day where i got the donkey so do you ever feel i need to be a donkey man it's a breakfast club bitches who's donkey of the day today wow donkey of the day for tuesday february 28th is going to a young man from chicago named james taylor okay he's 20 years old and i'm highly upset i'm just finding out about this story but some people amongst us might feel this is the perfect way to end black history month see james taylor allegedly
Starting point is 00:55:45 robbed a man at gunpoint okay now i have fully embraced the fact that i'm old school okay i was born in the 1900s 1978 to be exact so the way 20 year olds do things is not the way we did things the people i knew who committed armed robberies actually tried to not get caught i mean believe it or not kids that was the whole point of an armed robbery to not get caught probably only second to you know what you were stealing from the person all right not getting caught is the 1b to the 1a of the armed robbery but this generation is a little different okay this young man 20 years old from chicago allegedly robbed a 35 year old man who was parked in front of his house around 1 30 a.m now listen you pull up to your place of residence around 1 30 a.m you might you know be a
Starting point is 00:56:25 little high had a couple of drinks you know it's a saturday night i know it's freezing in chicago you just want to get in the house right not only do you want to get in the house this 35 year old man had just gotten some fried chicken now i don't know what kind of fried chicken it was but i'm gonna just assume on a saturday night in chicago it had to be har's. You know what I mean? Correct me if I'm wrong, Chicago, but don't one of the Harold's stay open until like 5 a.m. Am I making this up? I feel like one of those Harold's in Chicago stays open until 5 a.m., but just imagine
Starting point is 00:56:54 you got a four-wing, four-shrimp combo. Very mouth-watering. You know what I'm saying? Some hush puppies. What if you got a 10-piece wing and a mac and cheese bowl with chicken mixed in? I'm just trying to paint the picture for you okay you got this fried chicken from harold and you just want to get in the house on a saturday night be high full and happy and go to sleep but no here comes james taylor just disturbing your peace all right asking for a
Starting point is 00:57:19 light 1 30 in the morning you walking in chicago and some man with dreads walk up to you asking for a light. You might want to run, okay? But the man just said he ain't got no light, all right? But then this 20-year-old tapped the man on the shoulder, okay? Tapped the man on the shoulder and, you know, put a gun to his face, okay? And when the man turned around, James put a gun to his face and told the victim to run it. And all the victim had on him was his keys.
Starting point is 00:57:48 Okay, $2 in cash, a debit card, and the fried chicken. Now, I've told y'all before that fried chicken is a symbol of freedom, all right, for black people in America, especially black women in Virginia. Because after the Civil War, black women understood their freedom meant they could fully grasp some agency over their lives, all while creating and sustaining economic freedom for themselves through their culinary talent. So sisters used to carry fried chicken and other baked goods on their heads, waiting around at the train stations.
Starting point is 00:58:08 And when the trains would pull up, they would sell their fried chicken and baked goods. And since so few jobs are readily available or even accessible to black women, that's how they made their money, using their culinary talents to provide for their families after the Civil War. So once again, stop letting white supremacists fool y'all into thinking fried chicken is a negative stereotype for black people, because it's not. It's a symbol of economic freedom. What does that have to do with today's donkey of the day? Absolutely nothing.
Starting point is 00:58:30 Okay? Because in this situation, fried chicken didn't lead to someone's freedom. It actually led to James Taylor's arrest. James Taylor right now is charged with armed robbery with a firearm, aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, aggravated possession of a stolen motor vehicle, and illegal possession of a debit card. The judge ordered Taylor to pay a $15,000 bail deposit to go home on an electric monitor, and the judge told Taylor, who has no criminal background, that he faces a minimum of 21 years in prison if convicted of the armed robbery charge. Now, I know y'all like that. For some chicken.
Starting point is 00:59:02 For some chicken, right? Now, I know y'all like, damn, that's criminal For some chicken, right? And I know y'all like, damn, that's criminal. Okay, and being criminal is corny, so I understand why you're getting donkier today. But you know donkier today is all about giving people the credit they deserve
Starting point is 00:59:12 for being stupid. So, of course, armed robbery is stupid, but it's a little bit more than that, okay? How exactly did James Taylor get caught? What y'all think? What y'all think? He used the debit card. He used the debit card he used the debit card to stop and get gas yeah okay well according to the prosecutor uh after james taylor took this man's keys his debit card his two dollars in the fried chicken james taylor got into the victim's car
Starting point is 00:59:39 he didn't start the car he started eating that devil's damn fried chicken literally got into the victim's car and started eating the chicken why wouldn't you drive away you gotta eat it hot you gotta eat it while it's hot you got you got to eat it while it's hot come on now this makes perfect sense under normal circumstances yeah but when you just committed an armed robbery and you sitting in the car the person you just robbed you don't sit there and eat the chicken okay this man sat in the car so long eating the food that the victim had time to dial 9-1-1 and the police pulled up a few minutes later okay i'm really sitting there thinking to myself was this man committing a crime or was he just hungry all right you know i mean of course it's a crime but damn for you to not even think of
Starting point is 01:00:23 getting away you had to stop and eat right then and there. It might be some nuance to this niggertree because maybe just maybe this man really needed a meal. But that won't stop him from getting the credit he deserves for being stupid. Please give James Taylor the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. I like that.
Starting point is 01:00:57 That sounded like fried chicken. That's the hammer Thomas. You got a picture of the guy? Yes, I do have a picture of the guy. Come on, he's from Chicago. You know what he looks like. What does that mean? You want to play a game? I can't believe he sold the chicken, too.
Starting point is 01:01:11 You want to play a game? We don't need to play a game. Why? You want to play a game? Yes. Oh, God. Okay, let's play a game of Guess What Race It Is. All right.
Starting point is 01:01:24 James Taylor, 20 years old, of Chicago, 1.30 in the morning, robbed a man of some fried chicken, $2, a debit card, and the man's car keys, and did not even try to get away. Sat in the car and ate the fried chicken. DJ Envy, guess what? Racism! Most people are going to think black, right? Because it's fried chicken, it's Chicago, and it's 1.30 in the morning. Right?
Starting point is 01:01:48 But I'm not thinking that way. What you thinking? See, I'm thinking heroin addict. Oh. R. R. R. R.
Starting point is 01:01:56 Could be two MAGA guys with MAGA hats on. Exactly. You remember what happened before? Remember what happened before? Justin. That has happened before. Not exactly. And because of that, I'm going white. I'm goingucasian going caucasian okay uh lex james taylor 20 years old from chicago
Starting point is 01:02:14 all right robbed a man of two dollars a debit card his car keys and some fried chicken and didn't even try to get away sat in the car and ate the fried chicken guess what racey is i don't want to end black history month like this but i'm sorry anybody that's sitting in the car they smell that chicken and wait they can't even start the car it's not giving milk cricket it's tonight it's definitely giving a black man. Okay. Damn, damn, damn! Okay, okay. Drea? I would have to agree. I'm gonna say black man for $5,000. Damn, damn, damn!
Starting point is 01:02:53 Come on, please. Please don't be. I'd like all three of y'all to know that y'all are absolutely, positively wrong. Ooh! Okay? And the reason that y'all are wrong is because okay, y'all forget it's another option This is not a black person This is a nigga
Starting point is 01:03:09 I cannot believe That y'all would pin this on a black person I didn't know I could say that word Chris Rock told y'all the difference Oh wow He look hungry in that picture He look hungry Well I'll tell you one thing,
Starting point is 01:03:25 he wasn't hungry no more. No. Can this nigga evolve to a black man? Yes. Okay? But right now, yeah, nigga. Nigga's nigga.
Starting point is 01:03:35 Okay. I hope he don't get the full sentence. No, I hope he's, this is first charge. All right. This is first charge. Well, thank you for that donkey today. Now, when we come back,
Starting point is 01:03:43 Nidra Glover Tawwab will be joining us. She has a new book, Drama Free. We're going to kick it with her when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:03:55 Your mornings will never be the same. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlemagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. She's back. Najah Glover-Tawad. Welcome.
Starting point is 01:04:09 How are you, first of all? New book coming out, Drama Free. Drama Free. Managing Unhealthy Family Relationships. You have no idea how on time this book is. What does the title mean? What doesn't it mean? What is an unhealthy relationship?
Starting point is 01:04:23 It's anything that is problematic and persistent. You know, it's not just childhood trauma. It's also issues with in-laws and blended families and some of these cousins and all sorts of things. So what made you write this book? Do you get some problems in your family that you had to sort out? Oh, well, you know, I'm a therapist, so I help people with problems. And I think we all, to some degree, have something. Why are boundaries always such a focal point for your book because I think it is a focal point for relationships we have to create new expectations and with family we do give a lot of passes it's like well this is so and so so they should always answer the phone when I call well that person has a job that That's right. And the thing that they're doing right now is more important than hearing about your court show or whatever that is.
Starting point is 01:05:11 You know, I think sometimes we have to set a new standard within families, especially with the level of awareness we have now. I think this is now the time when people are more aware of, oh, I don't have to call them back. I don't have to visit them. We are woke and we are aware of where we want to be and where we don't want to be. How can you tell the difference between like family dysfunction? And that's just how we've always been. Well, the norm can be normal for you. It can still be unhealthy.
Starting point is 01:05:40 There are a lot of things that I hear. Oh, we used to get beat or, oh, you know, this is how my mama talked to me. And it's like, well, cussing you out, it can be the norm in your family, but it's not healthy. And so some of those things we have to think about in general, is this behavior that should be tolerated by anyone? Is this behavior that I would, except from a friend, is this behavior that I would see as suitable from a partner? What's the biggest misconception you see when it comes to family? That you have to like people.
Starting point is 01:06:12 There you go. I think of family as like a class, right? Like when you start a new grade, but it's 30 people in your class and maybe three or four you vibe with, right? I think it's the same with families like it's some people is whatever their personality your personality is like this cousin this aunt and this uncle come on y'all and the rest of them it's like oh no they're all cool i really like them but there are just certain people personality wise and that's the part we're not considering that there are people even with your children there are certain you know certain kids you, there are certain, you know, certain kids you're like, this is my guy, you know, based on personality, based on how much
Starting point is 01:06:48 they seem to be like you or interested in your life. My oldest daughter likes to tell me that my third daughter is my favorite and that bothers me. Is it true? I don't think so. You know, but it's like, I don't like that. If you don't think it's true. No, I don't think so. i don't because i don't feel like i have a favorite child and i'll be trying to explain that to her does your third daughter remind you of yourself no actually my second daughter does okay so i wonder i wonder why they're seeing this allegiance i don't know well something is happening i find that with parents sometimes they will deny no i don't have a favorite or no i treat
Starting point is 01:07:25 everybody the same when clearly they are not and that's okay because we don't treat all people the same and it's okay to recognize that like hey i am giving this person more attention because of x y z or i noticed that too and you know maybe try to be fair or maybe not you know but i think to deny it sometimes can be problematic for the sibling relationship. I just feel like that could lead to an unhealthy family relationship amongst the siblings. Absolutely. Because they think I'm playing favorites and I'm not. I think that's in everybody's family when you have a bunch of kids.
Starting point is 01:07:54 It's like I cater to my daughters more than my sons. Why? Because my daughters cater to me. They're loving. They're cuddling with daddy. If I get sick, they're going to lay in bed and rub daddy's back. That might be it. That's what my third daughter does. That lay in bed and rub daddy's back. They're going to make daddy's juice. That might be it.
Starting point is 01:08:06 That's what my third daughter does. That's what they do. That's it. You know what I mean? The rest of them are like, dad, you're good. I see that. But the rest of them, they're going to lay there. They're going to come for dad and take a liking to that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:17 But do you acknowledge that? Do you say that to them? Like, you're right. And this is why. So here's an opportunity for you to come cuddle with me. Yeah. But you know what? And this is going to sound crazy. an opportunity for you to come cuddle with me. Yeah. But you know what? And this is going to sound crazy.
Starting point is 01:08:27 My son is a 19-year-old football player. If he got in the bed and cuddled with me, it would just feel awkward to me. Look at me like that. That's wild, bro. What? You got six kids. Yes. Three of them are cuddle age.
Starting point is 01:08:37 But you referenced a 19-year-old son? No, because my daughter's cuddling with me. Because there are two and three. My daughter is 21. The adults. The adults. Oh, okay, okay, okay. She's getting in the bed and cuddling with dad. My nine, my eight, my six, my one-year-old. my son my daughter they're two and three my daughter is 21 the adults the adults she get in bed and cuddle with dad my nine my eight my six my my one year old but my 19 it would just
Starting point is 01:08:51 feel a little awkward that's messed up man that's why men feel that's why we be so closed off and don't know how to show emotions you know what i mean get that man a little cuddle time my son with his armpit hair on me like that's not gonna that's that's not that's horrible bro now let's talk about cycle breakers yes now that's very important especially when it comes to our dynamical family right yes yes yes cycle breakers are people who are the first in their family to do a thing the first in their family to be rich to go to college to maybe not go to college to be rich, to go to college, to maybe not go to college, to be married, all sorts of things. And I think when you are a cycle breaker, there is a lot of pushback from the people who have not changed, from the people who are still in, you know, maybe some of those unhealthy relationships,
Starting point is 01:09:37 because, you know, it's hard to see people do something that you couldn't or do something that feels like a threat to who you are or do something that, you know, makes you think, gosh, am I supposed to change too? So being a cycle breaker, I think a lot of their support comes from people outside their family. Sometimes it comes from, you know, that chosen family. It may come from, you know, some of those other family members that you don't see as often it may come from watching tv shows and identifying with you know some influencer or all sorts of things but you know i think cycle breaking is important and it's also really tough because you have to figure out a way to be supported how important is chosen family oh my gosh it's everything you know and our families
Starting point is 01:10:23 we sometimes choose remember i said you know it might be these three people that you pick but you know when we are outside of that family system we have the ability to go to work and say okay i really like this person and i really like this person come on you're you're my family now and we can do that with our friends and it's just easier the relationships are based on not blood but just how we feel about each other they're more authentic and i think that is the really important piece with the chosen family now troubleshooting relationships with siblings yes let's talk about that sibling aspect because charlotte how many brothers and sisters you have five that i grew up with
Starting point is 01:11:00 and how are your relationships are you all good Is there something that you like more than the others? So how do you tell siblings to deal with that? You know, I think it goes back to that. You know, it's based on your personality. It's based on who you feel you can have that authentic relationship with. And we don't feel like that with everyone, even if they're related to us. And with siblings, sometimes I see impacting siblings is when the oldest sibling had to be a caretaker for the younger siblings. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:11:32 And they have this idea of like, this is my sister, but it's my child. This is my brother, but this is my baby. You know, here it is. You're 40 and they're 35 and you mothering them. And then there's this issue of, well, they don't want your mothering anymore. Now they want a sister. So how do we transition out of that role and really into a sibling relationship? You know, we can redefine our relationships with people at any point and talk about some of the resentment if there is a favorite child situation.
Starting point is 01:12:03 Because you're right. It's not one child's fault that that happens it's you know really based on the parent's choice but it is easier sometimes for them to be mad at the sibling so those are conversations to have all right we got more with nidra glover to wobble we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj envy charlamagne. We are the Breakfast Club. We also have our co-host with us, Portmante's podcast, Drea and Lex P. All right, Charlamagne. You know, you can't force sibling relationships, right? Like I'm the second oldest, but it's such an age gap between me and my oldest sister. And it's such an age gap between my two younger brothers and younger sisters. So I love them. We didn't necessarily have that relationship
Starting point is 01:12:44 growing up because everybody was busy doing their own thing. Like my two younger brothers and younger sisters so i loved them we didn't necessarily have that relationship growing up because everybody was busy doing their own things like my two younger brothers are super close because they closer in age so is it a parent's job to like force those relationships to happen no um i think sometimes parents think they're supposed to right you know this is your brother y'all have to stick together this is your sister you have to stick together but a lot of that is just natural you'll see small kids like i want to hold my baby brother i want and another kid might be like i'm going outside you know so how do we allow people to select their people so we shouldn't force them because i force my kids okay like i have a 19 year old and i have an eight year old and i would be like when you go to football practice take your brother with you to let him hang out with his brother you know man
Starting point is 01:13:24 and that's not like caretaking to me no no no, take your brother with you. Let him hang out with his brother. That sounds like caretaking to me. No, it's not because I want him to experience that because there's some things that I didn't experience. I didn't play football as a kid. My 19-year-old does and he's a good player. I can tell that my 8-year-old looks up to him as a football player. So I'd be like, go out with your brother.
Starting point is 01:13:39 Go play with your brother. Go play basketball. Go bring Logan in, man. Logan's going to college next year. How about it? You keep saying he's 19 in high school? No, he's going to college next year. His birthday keep saying he's 19 in high school no no you go to college next year oh his birthday december 28th but that's what i do even with you know with whatever it may be playing video games i don't play video games my 19 year old does so i'd be like go in the room with your brother i force
Starting point is 01:13:57 him to do it and i notice it keeps them close so now my my not my eight-year-old will come in my room but he dad can i sleep in logan's room like, well, ask him. But he's starting to develop that bond where it is close. So I kind of force him to do it. You help them foster a relationship by making these suggestions. And it sounds like over time they have both grown to appreciate that. Forcing is when you say, take this kid with you. And they're like, ugh, I don't want to do it. Right?
Starting point is 01:14:24 So you're helping them learn to have a relationship you. And they're like, oh, I don't want to do it. Right. So you're helping them learn to have a relationship together. And that is healthy. Now, when you're forcing your children to be close, I think that's different. It's not really closeness. It is, you know, we can do this while we're here. But when people leave your home, like, how do you want those relationships to be? And that's what you need to think about. Like when they leave home and they're out in the world, who's going to force it then? No one. Another question that people always ask is the closeness between mom and child. People say you can't be your child's best friend, right?
Starting point is 01:14:56 Because that's one thing people say. That's my best friend. My daughter is my best friend. My son is my best friend. I'm people. You're people. But how do you feel about that? When someone is a child, I don't think so because it's one sided.
Starting point is 01:15:08 You certainly wouldn't share with your child, girl, we went to the club. Not appropriate, mom. But you can listen to a lot of what your kid is saying and you can give them some feedback and hopefully they have a relationship where they trust being able to talk to you i wouldn't necessarily call that a best friendship as much as i would say that is a healthy relationship with your child you don't want to be in a best friendship where you're oversharing with your child your child is hyper focused on your needs because you have so much stuff going on that's where it gets a little murky it's like okay what is this what is the definition of this best friendship if it's you
Starting point is 01:15:51 caring for your child and your child is just being open with you okay cool that's best friendship for you but if it's you know this person is always here for me where they're eight you know they should not always they shouldn't always be there for you find you some friends at work knowing your daughter is sexually active i i guess that's okay details it depends on the father's comfort level yeah now you refer to family as a cultural system in the book drama free what does that mean so families have their own thing you know in your family it might be you know when you have a to baby, go live with your grandma for three months or, you know, whatever your program is. It is how you learn to be, how you learn to exist.
Starting point is 01:16:36 When we get married, we do this when we whatever. This is what happens. It is a whole culture. I think what's interesting is when we take our culture and we try to move that culture into the world, when we try to get married and we try to get into relationships and we're telling our partner was normal and they're like, no, this is what my family was. And now we have to figure out a new culture for ourselves. You know, the cultural piece is only problematic when somebody sort of breaks away from it and the others disagree. Because for a lot of especially our families, it's more the I told you so syndrome, right? Growing up as a kid is dad, can I go there? No. Why? Because I told you so. My wife is a little different.
Starting point is 01:17:23 It took me a long time to get to it because I was the same way. My wife likes to have conversations, right? I don't like the conversations because if I tell you something, do it. But my kids are like, but why can't I? But why doesn't that make sense? And she'll sit there and have conversations with them all day. I guess it's a better way because they understand the reason why and they don't leave being mad and don't leave being hateful. What is your suggestion when it comes to that? I'm a mom, so i do a little explain and i also over talk to my dog so you know
Starting point is 01:17:51 get off of there go in the it's like sit could have helped right sit is enough you're over there messing up stuff right i'm saying way too much so i'll give a talk back. Never. Thankfully. But yeah, I think with kids, it is helpful sometimes to give them some reason. You know, kids are people and it is hopeful for them to know why and how and what this means, because in the future, hopefully with that understanding, they'll be able to tap into that conversation and say, oh, this is why I shouldn't do that. Without that level of understanding, you may not know next time. So it can be helpful to just explain things. And that is a cultural shift, right? When you come from just because I said so. Well, all the because I said so's weren't healthy for us. We have some adults telling us stuff and it's like, she did not know what she talking about.
Starting point is 01:18:43 You know, so so if somebody can explain their why, sometimes it could be really helpful for them in the future and sometimes you'll hear them talking to their friends and you're like oh those my words so it helps i want people to go pick up the book drama free so i don't want to you know give too much away but i love the resisting the urge to operate in dysfunction chapter because sometimes i wonder i don't think people can help it if they haven't you know done the urge to operate in dysfunction chapter because sometimes i wonder i don't think people can help it if they haven't you know done the work to even recognize this is dysfunctional to them they just operate in normalcy so what does that mean resisting the urge to operate in dysfunction especially if you don't know it's dysfunction it's learning to be different i think
Starting point is 01:19:18 we have so many times in life where we are shown different things and it's up to us to pick it up whether that's visiting a friend's house seeing something on tv if we just process some of that information like wow that's what they do in their house and have those conversations even with our siblings with other family members with our friends you will learn that some of the things that you are experiencing they may be normal for you but they are not necessarily the healthiest all right we appreciate you for joining us this morning pick up the book drama free and listen this wednesday i'm gonna be in conversation with miss nadra to wab glover at the bell house brooklyn new york at 7 p.m it might be sold out already i don't know i think it's pretty sold out it is right okay, I guess for more information and tickets, visit NajraTawab.com.

Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me
Starting point is 01:21:28 Did you know, did you know I wouldn't give up my seat Nine months before Rosa It was called a moment Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise.

Starting point is 01:22:39 How many episodes in a season usually? She's doing her big one. I thought it was 10, right? Yeah, it's not that many. It's like eight to 10. Yeah, for Euphoria, euphoria i'm not sure jesus yeah i don't know but either way dropping the clues bonf is in dance he deserves it okay you don't you can't do that show without zendaya right and you remember we were talking the other day about drake and he was like i'm i'm you was i think he was saying like damn i'm surprised drake hasn't do much uh outside of rap but he's also
Starting point is 01:23:02 ep on the show right I mentioned that he EPs Euphoria and Top Boy on Netflix oh I didn't know that he was an EP for Top Boy because the music
Starting point is 01:23:11 on Euphoria is great right I don't know if he does the music well like picking the songs like it creates a vibe you know what I'm saying he's an EP
Starting point is 01:23:18 for the actual show oh his name is in the clip oh I see I didn't know that but it's not coming out until the second half of 2024. Okay.
Starting point is 01:23:26 Which is going to be weird because ain't they supposed to be in high school? They are. Right. They should have been graduated by now. College. Hopefully by the time they come back, you would think they graduated. And we got to wait that long to see if homie died? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:37 Oh, yeah. Yeah. That's crazy. It's a lot of things we got to wait to see. What else? We got to see if she's still on crack. She's still crack crack she was struggling you have to say it like you're smoking crack you're still on crack yes
Starting point is 01:24:01 my sister's going she was down through this you really can't talk to nobody on crack calmly like you really are you still on crack yeah no they don't understand unless you say it like that
Starting point is 01:24:11 you're on crack it's so aggressive and they be like yes like that man on the show that used to be trying to help her he used to be talking to her like that
Starting point is 01:24:19 yeah you gotta say it like that remember Joe I was about to say Joe Rogan remember Morgan Freeman on lean on me oh yeah smoke crack don't you boy smoke crack don't you smoke crack don't you boy I like that. Remember Joe, I was about to say Joe Rogan. Remember Morgan Freeman on Lean On Me? Smokey Craig, don't you boy?
Starting point is 01:24:27 Smokey Craig, don't you? Smokey Craig, don't you boy? Smokey Craig, don't you? Smokey Craig, don't you? That was a wild approach. That was a wild approach. Why are you telling this little boy to jump? By the way, that's how I used to be.
Starting point is 01:24:38 My dad used to talk to me just like that. For real? Because they feel like you're just throwing your life away anyway. And why was he Smokey Craig? The little boy. I mean, I don't know. Maybe no weed was around.
Starting point is 01:24:48 I don't know. No weed? No weed? That was during the crack era. And crack was big in New York. It was crack. It was big everywhere. But it was very big here.
Starting point is 01:24:57 You know, crack started off recreational. Yeah. So people were smoking crack because they didn't know no better. It was a party drug. I am weed. It's just fried cocaine. Right. But I'm just saying, like. You know too much saying, like, taking crack breaks at work is wild.
Starting point is 01:25:10 Crack breaks at work is wild. Yeah, that's sad as well. Lighten up that pipe. That's wild. Oh, and lastly, you know Carl Crawford, of course, ex, I was going to say NBA, Major League Baseball player. He also owns 1501 Certified. That's the label that Megan Thee Stallion assigned to. He seems like he regrets everything that they've gone through, Thee Stallion is signed to he seems like he regrets
Starting point is 01:25:26 everything that they've gone through and this is what he had to say unfortunately man Megan we haven't talked since you know since 2019 so like like I said that's unfortunate too as well because I never wanted to you know have a situation where I was you know um going back and forth on the internet you know I have to take responsibility for anything that happens over here at 1501. Like I say, I got a lot real, real fast, you know, coming from another lane and all that type of stuff. So a lot of things came at me real, real fast
Starting point is 01:25:54 and then I had to learn real, real quick. And in the process of that, you might make a few mistakes here and there. But I never had any problems with making the study. You know, it's just the social media stuff. It really just turned really, really sour. You take this social media part out of it, we don't have a problem. I'm done with that.
Starting point is 01:26:11 You won't hear me mention Megan Thee Stallion name in the media unless I'm doing something like this. Yeah, the sad thing about that, I think it's like too little, too late. I was thinking the same thing. They already had each other out. It's kind of like the relationship is done. Now it's to the point, it's business. i'm sure when she finished her contract she's out yeah for sure with that label because i feel like you know sometimes it's hard run you know being in the business and the contract and y'all don't like where things is going but things got taken too
Starting point is 01:26:37 far with that tori situation and that was your moment to really you know what all this is going on with us business wise but it's like her mental health there was a lot of things going on with her and that was his moment to be like you know what let me take care of this girl because we started from day one together right so like you said it's kind of too little too late but i'm glad the truth finally came out with everything and i really like prayers to her because she went through a lot she did like losing your mom and having to go through all this like the world really turned on her they so i'm glad that the truth came out and i just hope that her mental health is like good are they still in court i'm not sure i don't think so i don't know i don't know what's going on
Starting point is 01:27:14 with that as far as her 1501 contract i feel like they definitely it was a time to just not or you could have just not said anything right you know a lot was said it was a little people egos it gets it's the egos yeah it is it is interesting like you know you see everybody apologizing to me right yeah but we know that if the verdict had went another way it wouldn't be that in of course not right of course not but it's crazy because even though the verdict verdict was what it was people were still being like oh well it's not that it's not Like, some people just like to stand 10 times down being wrong. Like one of y'all,
Starting point is 01:27:46 who said it? I think Dre just said it. It's the ego. Yeah, it's the ego, for sure. Nobody wants to just admit, hey, I was wrong. You know what I mean? And sometimes people
Starting point is 01:27:54 just got to mind your business until all the facts come out. A hundred percent. Just be quiet. I don't know why it's so hard for people to do this. Because I got to get these tweets off.
Starting point is 01:28:02 Because I got to get these Instagram posts and these Instagram captions. Now, come on now. You know you know i wake up you know when people wake up in the morning they gotta feed their feed yeah that's all it is that's true and be loud and loud and wrong speaking on what you don't know loud and wrong a lot of people owe me an apology to bite you and that is your rumor report i want to uh shout out to atlanta university uh aucc they're having their career fair uh and you know i love going to talk to the colleges about, you know, what we do up here and how they can get into it. So I'll have a conversation with them later on.
Starting point is 01:28:32 And I just want to say one other thing. This. Why are you looking at me like that? You about to say something gay? This victim blaming of straight men has to stop. No, I'm serious. It has to stop. He's homophobic.
Starting point is 01:28:45 Saucy Santana. I spoke to my guy. Saucy, baby. Trav that calls in all the time. I think they gave you some sound advice. All Saucy said. Let me read what Saucy said
Starting point is 01:28:54 last night on Instagram. Straight men want to put a plastic piece in their mouth and blow. They should be able to do. A plastic piece? That's a hookah tip. A hookah tip.
Starting point is 01:29:02 That could go either or the way you're saying it. I'm talking hookah. Okay. And I know NB is Dominican so that's a Dominican thing tip a hookah tip but that could go either or the way you're saying it I'm talking hookah okay and I know Envy is Dominican so that's a Dominican thing you know what I mean like Dominicans in New York
Starting point is 01:29:10 love to smoke hookah I believe it so somebody posted a picture look at that tell me you don't like a little baddie right there you know what I'm saying you kicked the leg up
Starting point is 01:29:17 you had the leg kicked up but that was like a fire picture like that could be an album cover right DJ Shrimp so I was just saying Tanner reposted this last night and he said Envy not you blew the smoke out for the pic That was like a fire picture. That could be an album cover. Right. DJ Shrimp. Saucy Santana reposted this last night.
Starting point is 01:29:29 He said, Envy, not you blew the smoke out for the pic. I'm sick, bro. He said it like that? I'm sure he did. Okay. Y'all going to stop. Y'all going to leave straight men alone. Let straight men express and do what they want to do and allow them to grow.
Starting point is 01:29:41 You're going to listen to the Surgeon General. You're going to listen to Saucy Santana. Stop putting that little plastic tip to your mouth. It's not good for you. Why are y'all wording it like that? Why are y'all wording it like that? I don't know why they keep calling it the plastic piece. Look, Dreya, if you saw one of your homegirls, right? Let's just say putting her mouth on a vibrator.
Starting point is 01:30:01 Okay. I've seen that before. You think something's wrong, right? She said I've seen that before. She said no, I've seen that before. I mean, depend on, right? She said I've seen that before. She said no, I've seen that before. I mean, depend on what you mean by wrong.
Starting point is 01:30:08 I'm just saying, why would they be doing that? Why not? They might be making a video to send to somebody. You cannot compare a vibrator to a hookah tip. That's exactly what it is.
Starting point is 01:30:16 It's made out of the same material. You know what? Point is, the hookah just don't vibrate. Don't some of them vibrate. I think they got some tips that vibrate. With candy on them?
Starting point is 01:30:26 Yo, if you see a man shaking the vibrator, that guy is crazy. They got the lollipop tips. They got the lollipop tips. They got a lot of different ones. Imagine seeing a man shaking the hookah in the club in his mouth, just shaking it. To get that vibrating feeling. That's how I start shaming straight men. That's different. That's the Breakfast Club. People's Choice Mix is up next
Starting point is 01:30:47 Let's go The Breakfast Club Your mornings will never be the same Our Audible pick of the day is Some People Have Real Problems by Brit Bennett Tessa Thompson plays a conflicted woman Who imagines living a totally different life Start listening when you sign up for a free 30 day trial
Starting point is 01:31:02 At the home of storytelling Audible.com slash breakfast club V dot here and I first want to say thank you to everybody that made season two a success I don't want to start naming folks because i'm gonna leave somebody out But if you listen you help promote you share I appreciate you just trying to offer a different way to consume black history, not just in February, but all year long, you dig? Season one was February 2022, 28 episodes.
Starting point is 01:31:35 Season two, February 2023, 28 more episodes. You can find all 56 episodes on the Black Effect Podcast Network. So tap in. But I would like to leave you with this. Did you know the KKK had their own language? Yes, man. They be using words and acronyms and stuff. You can Google KKK glossary and find some of these words.
Starting point is 01:31:56 For example, Akiya, A-K-I-A. That's a password. It means a Klansman I am. An alien is a person who does not belong to the Klan Now I don't really know how to pronounce this next one But it's A-Y-A-K Is that I-Y-A-K? A-Y-A-K?
Starting point is 01:32:13 Either way it's a password meaning Are you a Klansman? You might hear two white dudes walk up And one say I-Y-A-K And the other one say I-K-E-A He just said are you a Klansman? And the other one said a Klansman I am said, are you a Klansman? And the other one said, a Klansman I am. And you had no clue.
Starting point is 01:32:28 Why? Because you're an alien. You're not part of the Klan. Man, they got inner circles, imperial wizards, all types of Harry Potter nomenclature. And they call themselves the Invisible Empire. Because they say they all over. But you don't know who the hell is a Klansman. That makes them invisible.
