Starting point is 00:05:13 Yeah. I forgot the name of it. Gotcha. We're going to talk to him about All That this morning, and let's get the show cracking. We got front page news. Mimi will be joining us, Day 35 of the shutdown.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Also voting. Today, are you out already? Are you heading to the polls? We'll talk to all that, and you can get it off your chest, 800-585-105-1. Wake your ass up. It's the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's D.J. N.V. Jess O'Larious. Sholomey and the Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front-page news. Now, last night, the Cowboys played the Arizona Cardinals. Cowboys lost.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Drop a bomb for the Cardinals, please. Why are you dropping a bomb for the Cardinals? Why are you up just as bad as y'all do? See, 3 and 5. So? Why is dropping a boat to the Cardinals? Anybody who beats the Cowboys, I drop a bomb for. That's silly. No, it's not. Okay. I like it. What's up, Mimi?
Starting point is 00:06:00 Good morning, Mv. Jess. How are you doing this morning? Good morning. Good morning. All right, well, we start this morning on day 35 of the government shutdown. With the White House and Congress, they are still deadlocked over whether the, to extend those Affordable Care Act subsidies, and that's the program that helps keep premiums down for millions of Americans. Now, until a deal is reached, key agencies remain unfunded, and the ripple effects, they are spreading as a nation's air, air, traffic control system is now nearing a breaking point. Now, the FAA says it is running dangerously low on staff, forcing it to slow or even stop flights as some of the country is busy as airports just to keep traveler safe. So this weekend alone, more than 10,000 flights were delayed. Nearly 400 more were canceled nationwide with Dallas, Newark, Atlanta, and Houston among the hardest hits. Now, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, he says the agency has issued a critical safety alert, meaning it is intentionally pacing out flights and reducing traffic to avoid accidents. Let's listen to what he had to say. We will delay. We will cancel
Starting point is 00:07:06 any kind of flight across the national airspace to make sure people are safe. But there is a level of risk that gets injected into the system when we have a controller that's doing two jobs instead of one. We manage that. We look out for it. And safety is the priority. But I would just tell you, as bad as it is, the numbers you just gave, this, we will look back if the government doesn't open in the next week or two, we'll look back as these were the good days, not the bad days. It's only going to get worse. Yeah. So really serious consequences there. Many of those workers, as we've been talking about, they haven't been paid in weeks. And the union that represents the shutdown, the union that represents the air traffic controllers, they are warning that as airports,
Starting point is 00:07:51 They will continue to see a string of near misses. So in Boston, there was a Delta pilot who aborted a landing just so that he wouldn't hit someone else who was taking off. And in Cleveland, a southwest jet, it narrowly missed a medical helicopter. And even in New York at LaGuardia, a United plane, it clipped another airplane's tail while 80% of the air traffic controllers were out. So we are seeing long lines on the ground, too. There's spiral video or viral pictures of Houston. the airport is wrapped. The lines are wrapped around the airport there. So it is getting really, really, really bad. So we will continue to watch what's going on in the sky. But now to the dinner table where the Trump administration says that it will restart SNAP payments, but only partially to more than 42 million Americans who rely on SNAP to buy groceries. Those benefits, they cost about $9 billion a month. But the administration says there's only $5 billion available in an emergency fund. And that's going to cover about half. of what families usually get.
Starting point is 00:08:53 Now, this move comes after two federal judges. They ordered the government to use that fun, calling it unlawful to freeze benefits during a shutdown. Now, food banks across the country, they are bracing for the fallout, trying to keep the shells stocked while families wait on those delayed benefits. Let's listen to what's happening. We don't know what to tell people when they can really start
Starting point is 00:09:14 to expect those dollars to be seen on their EBT card. It takes time for them to process how much that payment is going to be. to the states and then for the states how to distribute that partial payment. So it's really challenging right now to communicate what people should be able to expect when they'll get their SNAP benefits. Food banks across the country are truly the supplement to the supplemental nutrition assistance program. For every one meal that we provide, SNAP provides nine. It is a massive gap that food banks cannot fully fill. But right now, what I can tell you this, we're going to do whatever we can to try, to reduce the pain that so many are feeling
Starting point is 00:09:53 as a result of this government shut down. Man, salute to all the food banks, food pantries across the country. I want to salute the Food Bank of New York City. You know, last week I donated to have 25,000 meals given out from the food bank, and I wanted New Yorkers to match me. Man, they did more than match me.
Starting point is 00:10:13 We've been able to provide 150,000 meals since last Friday. So thank you to the Food Bank of New York City. And if y'all want to continue to donate to them, go to foodbank nyc.org. Yeah. And just to add to that, new SNAP rules that quietly took effect over the weekend.
Starting point is 00:10:31 We didn't talk about this a little bit yesterday, but under Trump's big, beautiful bill, there are more changes now that are coming to the SNAP program. So there are new work requirements that will change who is now eligible for those payments. So if you are an able-bodied-bodied adult is what they're calling it, who can work, train, or volunteer,
Starting point is 00:10:49 here, you must do that for 80 hours a month to keep your benefits. Parents and caregivers, they are also filling it. So before caring for a child under 18, made you exempt from the work rule. Now, the cutoff is 14, and some exemptions
Starting point is 00:11:05 were already, are also rolled back, meaning if you're a veteran, if you're homeless, or if you are a former foster youth, you now have to meet stricter standards to qualify, and all that took place over the week. That's a damn shame that they're doing that to the veterans. The veterans should be getting, you know, free food aid just because they, you know, serve this country.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Yeah. And also, too, why do people act like the folks on SNAP don't work? Like, I've never known people who had SNAP not to work. They always work. But you got to work because they may not be making enough money to pay for their rent, to pay for their bills, and to put food on the table. That's why they got SNAP. Yep.
Starting point is 00:11:42 But they definitely work. That's because there's a misconception of who's on SNAP. So, you know. A huge misconception. misconception. Most people feel like people on SNAP are not working. They're lazy. They got a bunch of kids. They sit up home and watch TV all day, but that's not factual. Yeah, them guys,
Starting point is 00:11:55 you know, some of those Republicans need to go down south and go to those rural areas and those same people with the Trump signs in their yard and wearing their MAGA hats, those low income white folks, they own wealth and Snap just like everybody else. Actually, they make up the majority of people on SNAP benefits.
Starting point is 00:12:12 All right. Well, that is front page news. Thank you, Mimi. Uh-huh. Everybody else. Get it off here. 800-585-105-1. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Call us up now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Starting point is 00:13:33 We get off my test with the government shut down. What I'm saying is this administration right now, they're really not caring about the people. And at the end of the day, Trump is Mr. Fired. He's firing everybody. And he clearly stated that before this happened. So what I'm saying is, for people to sit back, take this serious,
Starting point is 00:13:49 forget about going to work for no pain. They're playing you in your face. Sit back, stand down, let this thing shut down. Because I'm telling you, they're not bringing you back. This is a whole new system coming in, in my opinion. And they're not bringing back these workers. They're playing in your faces. And you guys are really helping, you're doing what this corporation is supposed to be doing,
Starting point is 00:14:08 and your money shouldn't be supplying the people right now. And if we're going to do it like that, then that's what he's telling me this is a whole new system. And we just have to look out for ourselves to do it a different way Because the government is not the way That's very interesting So you think that they, you know They want to force people to quit their jobs
Starting point is 00:14:25 So they can bring in AI Absolutely. AI's taking over jobs They're clearing them out, humans are gone And they're playing in your faces right now They're not bringing these people back Interesting Thank you, brother Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:14:39 Joe Gleeves and Florida Good morning, Blemann. What's up? I'm running off your chest And listen, all these lobbyists, I think it should be a law that they shouldn't get paid leave It should be a law
Starting point is 00:14:51 But if they're going to close the government down They should get paid leave You mean the lobbyist? What are you talking about? I'm talking about with me You mean the elected officials You mean the elected officials He felt like the government should that they shouldn't get paid to
Starting point is 00:15:04 And I agree with you I agree with you Yeah Because it's like they're getting paid So they might not have to force it Or even go to it because they're getting paid regardless. You know how much,
Starting point is 00:15:14 you know how the outrage would be if like when the government shut down these corporate, like, number one, we weren't, we didn't have to pay taxes and, you know, number two, I forgot what I was going to say.
Starting point is 00:15:25 God damn it, I'm getting old. You know. We didn't have to pay taxes and something else I was about to say. I don't remember. Get it off your chest. 800, 585-105-105.1.
Starting point is 00:15:34 If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's the breakfast club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's a new day. It's your time to get it off your chest. Wait, wake up!
Starting point is 00:15:45 Whether you're mad or blessed. It's time to get up and get something. Call up now. 800-585-105-1. We want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hello, hi. What's your name, Mama?
Starting point is 00:15:57 I want to be anonymous. Okay, Ms. Anonymous. Get it off your chest. I want to get off my chest. I just want you guys to know when you guys are going through the airport, just think the officers were coming to work and not being paid. We understand that y'all fuss. because of the long lines, but we're frustrated as well.
Starting point is 00:16:15 That's right. I agree. We all in this together. I completely agree with you. You are so right. I did that flying out of Charlotte this weekend and flying into Charlotte, so you are so right. Thank you. I appreciate it. And also, I want to call out the F&D for New York City. You don't want us to get no type of gifts from the passengers, from the airline. They just want us to be slaving in there. That's horrible. So y'all can't accept nothing. From passengers, y'all can't accept nothing
Starting point is 00:16:45 I get why they don't say the money But they should be able to get gift cards They should be able to get food But why can't they accept the money? Because they're saying if you could bribe somebody To get something through Oh, okay You see what you get money
Starting point is 00:16:57 He has a little $100 slavis through But I get it But they should be able to get food Or breakfast or dinner or lunch to help somebody Somehow or some way We can't get nothing We can't take nothing We can't do nothing
Starting point is 00:17:08 No gift cards, no gas cards You're bad to start whispering them cash shaps telling you, whisper them cash apps. Can't anybody prove that they send you cash shaps? That's a fact. Also, I want you guys to keep in mind anybody listening. Just make sure when you guys are traveling, please, please,
Starting point is 00:17:24 please, thank the officers because you don't know if they come to work doing their job. They're forcing us to come to work. They come to us if we call out, we're going to lose our job. You're right. So you don't know who in there doing their job the way they're supposed to be. You're right. And how many times people try to walk through with some weed and you just
Starting point is 00:17:40 turn your head the other way? A weed is illegal sir. You can't. You can't spot weed through the airport? You can't? No. I don't be doing that noise. All right. All right. Yeah, hi. But thank you guys. Thank you for taking my call. You know what I wanted to say? I remember
Starting point is 00:17:56 what I wanted to say. If we didn't have to pay taxes during the government shutdown and if these corporations didn't get paid either, meaning we didn't have to pay them during the government shutdown, like if you are a federal worker, you don't got to pay no rent, no mortgage, no light bills, no gas bills, no nothing. If you work for the federal government,
Starting point is 00:18:12 And when the government is shut down, you think that these corporations and billionaires wouldn't be going crazy right now? These corporations and billionaires would be pushing back against the government demanding that they do something to reopen this government if they weren't getting paid as well.
Starting point is 00:18:25 If you're a federal worker, though. Only if you're a federal worker. If you're a federal worker, you should be exempt from having to pay anything during the government shutdown. I guarantee that it would make these corporations lose their minds. Well, get it off your chest,
Starting point is 00:18:38 800-585-105.1. We've got the latest with Lauren coming up. What are we talking about, Lauren? Good morning, y'all. We're talking about Jake Paul and Jervante Tank Davis.

Starting point is 00:18:52 I can see her. What's here? On his screen. Oh, wait. All I see is Mimi. Oh, no, she's up there. You never see me. That's facts.
Starting point is 00:19:00 You don't see yourself. All right. Okay, that's what I be trying to get you to do every day. Good morning. I get you guys. Good morning. We got the latest with Laura. When we come back is the breakfast club for morning.
Starting point is 00:19:11 The Breakfast Club. Yes, it's the world most dangerous morning show The Breakfast Club. Charlemagne the God, DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, and it's time for the latest with Lauren Lerosa. Lauren becoming a straight fat. Tell us, man. She gets them from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details. I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Starting point is 00:19:32 She'd be having the latest on it. The latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit everything. Well, it's the latest. On the breakfast club. Talk to me. L.L. Cool Bay. Hey, y'all. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Hey, girl. So that fight that was supposed to go down with Jake Paul and Javante Take Davis in Miami, on November 14, is not happening. It has been canceled officially. And this comes, you know, not too long after Javante Take Davis was accused of assaulting a woman at a strip club. So MVP promotions, which is the promotional group behind the fight. Posted a statement yesterday that said, most valuable promotions and Netflix have announced that
Starting point is 00:20:15 Jake Paul versus Yvante Davis originally scheduled for Friday November 14th in Miami will no longer be moving forward. They say our team has worked closely with all parties to navigate this situation responsibly because last week
Starting point is 00:20:27 they had announced that they were investigating into the assault claims by the woman and trying to figure out how they're going to move forward. The CEO of the company says while we will not be moving forward with this event, our plan still remains for Jake Paul to headline an event on Netflix in 2025. Details regarding the new date, location, Jake's opponent,
Starting point is 00:20:47 and additional bouts will be shared as soon as they are finalized. We thank Netflix and the venue as well for their partnership. And they say they appreciate continued support. There's also a plan in place already for fans who have purchased tickets. They say if you purchase tickets via ticket master for the fight, you'll automatically get a refund however you purchased. And then if you purchase through a third party, they say you should contact your third party and then they have an assistant um like an email that you can reach out to if you need help navigate in this situation but let me ask your question there must have been like they must be like a video or something because it's a civil lawsuit and it's just allegations it's not criminal so
Starting point is 00:21:23 there must be something that you know made them be like oh no yeah we got to back away from this yeah so we actually have some exclusive details so we were told by a source uh that would know that there is an alleged video of the incident um we were also told that you know it's not just a about the incident, although I'm sure that that had a pretty big, you know, that was a pretty big reason for why we got to this point. But we're also told when it comes to Giovante Tank Davis, you know, I was told by the source that they, that, you know, people working close to production, alleged that he is horrible to work with.
Starting point is 00:21:56 He was very late all the time. And there was issues with getting him to promote the fight. All this on top of the fact that I'm told that the tickets weren't selling well in the first place. And then now you have this, you know, these allegations of assault that. come from this woman in Florida and you know they just decided to pull the plug now two questions the woman in florida is that his his baby mother or no this is another separate incident no this is a separate incident it's a woman in court raselle uh she claimed that her and tank
Starting point is 00:22:24 or jvante tank davis had a private intimate relationship over the last five five months um and she says that it hasn't been anything but smooth uh she wrote in the lawsuit that was filed in miami that she alleges that he beat her up and threatened her on several different occasions and then like even allegations of like I'll kill you and you know things like that and that there was um in the law so she mentions that it got worse at one point because uh he she alleges that he attacked her while she was working she's a VIP cocktail waitress at uh tutsis and she alleges that he showed up around like a little bit after 4 o'clock in morning one day found her in the VIP lounge she alleges that he forcibly grabbed her and dragged her through the stairway through a kitchen through a back entrance all the way into the Park and Garage. And Tutsis is a gentleman's club in Florida. Can we drop on a blue box
Starting point is 00:23:12 for Tutsis in Miami, please? Are you frequent? I've been. I frequented. Yeah, so she's a legend a lot. So if there is a video that shows any of this, you know what I mean? Like, that would definitely
Starting point is 00:23:25 anybody with some money on the line back away. That's cameras all over Tutsis, I'm sure. Yeah. Now, also to So, wait, they say it wasn't selling at all? I heard that too, though. The tickets wasn't selling? I heard the tickets weren't moving.
Starting point is 00:23:39 they wanted them to as well. So they're saying he was supposed to get like a $40 million plus payday. $40 million. What did Jake Paul say, Lauren? So Jake Paul posted on his story last night 10 minutes after they announced being alive and he said Giovante Davis is an actual walking human piece of garbage.
Starting point is 00:23:55 Working with him is an absolute nightmare. The unprofessionalism, the bizarre request showing up hours late to shoots to the numerous arrest and related accusations and lawsuit. If you support this man, you support the most vile sin and man can commit. I did not want to give this, he's, I'm going to say alleged,
Starting point is 00:24:12 alleged woman abuser, a platform to grow his fans or to grow his bank account. My company champions women, he's talking about MVP. I'm so sorry to everyone involved, mostly to the undercar fighters, to my team at MVP and to my team who worked so hard prepping for this fight. Sacrificing time with loved ones, kids, just for this fool to lose his unintelligent mind again. It's scary that the devilish men like this can rise to the top of culture and sports, including positions of power. I hope you people moving forward look beyond.
Starting point is 00:24:39 his fake streetwear pieces and then he puts swag in captions and search for something deeper to be a fan of as for me, I'm on to the next as always. I mean, that's unfortunate. One thing I tell everyone around me and I stress that to every young person around me, when you work with people, you want folks
Starting point is 00:24:55 to say that you are a pleasure to work with. If the people you are working with say that, then you will always get work. Do you think these companies like a Netflix want to pay tens of millions of dollars to someone that's causing them stress? No. Nobody's bigger than the program. No, not at all. So who is he fighting next?
Starting point is 00:25:10 Because he said the fight's still going to happen, right? Do they have options of who he's going to fight? He's looking for people that want to hospitalize him.

A shutdown means we don't get the data, but it also means for President Trump that there's no chance of bad news on the labor market. What does a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich reveal about the economy? Our breakfast foods are consistent consumer staples, and so they sort of become outsized indicators of inflation. What's behind Elon Musk's trillion-dollar payout? There's a sort of concerted effort to message that Musk is coming back.
Starting point is 00:28:13 He's putting politics aside. He's left the White House. And what can the PCE tell you that the CPI can't? CPI tries to measure out-of-pocket costs that consumers are paying for things, whereas the PCE index that the Fed targets is a little bit broader of a measure.

Starting point is 00:28:49 For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved, until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls came forward with a story. I'm telling you, we know Quincy Kilder, we know. A story that law enforcement used to convict six people and that got the citizen investigator on national TV. Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran. My name is Maggie Freeling.
Starting point is 00:29:25 I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find. I did not know her, not kill her, or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y'all said it. They literally made me say that I took a match and struck and threw it on her. They made me say that I poured gas on her. From Lava for Good, this is Graves County, a show about just how far our legal system will go in order to find someone to blame.

Starting point is 00:31:26 Oh, I love what he's doing with MVP. I think I love what he's doing. Ryan Garcia? I heard Ryan Garcia, too. I heard Ryan Garcia too. I was reading and preparing for this, a lot of those sports website were saying that that's like a big rumor to the Ryan's. But Ryan got another fight
Starting point is 00:31:40 lining up though. I forgot with the guy. Mario or something? Yeah, Mario or something? I forgot it was like that. 40 million. You won't fight him? I'll do two rounds you do too. No. Well, listen, I will say this too. This is probably the first time in a long time that Tank hasn't been the A side. And I wonder if that was messing with him as well.
Starting point is 00:31:57 Because Jake Paul is absolutely the A side. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I get that ego. Yeah. I hate to see when people get in their own way, though. You know, I mean, like, they get in there on way for a huge payday to make sure that he could take care of his family, his kids, and, you know. Well, we only hear in one side, even though we've heard this from a lot of different people. We're still over here in one side. We are.
Starting point is 00:32:17 And I did reach out. But the fact the fight's not going to happen is, you know, you know, that's. Yeah, a lot of people grow up. You reached out to Javonte? Not, not him directly. And, I mean, if you want to help me, just, I know that you also. Yeah, I mean, you don't talk me. I, well, so I reached out to a team member that I knew that worked with him.
Starting point is 00:32:35 that would not give me any comment but you know one of the biggest things when you talk about envy what you're talking about like people getting in their own way is you got to think about like why people show up for Gervante Tank Davis so much
Starting point is 00:32:45 like he represents so much from people from where he's from areas he employs so many people so something like this especially if this is about to be what it's about to look like for the rest of his career because he's been saying he doesn't even want to fight anymore this is a horrible way to
Starting point is 00:32:58 go out on top of everything that he's done so it's just sad to see all right all right well that is the latest for Lauren thank you Lauren you're welcome

Starting point is 00:34:29 Jess O'Lari. Shalermaine the Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's getting some front-page news. for sports. Last night, the Cowboys lost. Yeah, whatever. Listen, salute to Cayenne Anthony, man. Drop on the clues bonds for Kayane Anthony. He had his debut
Starting point is 00:34:41 last night with Syracuse. He had 15 points, man. Yeah, Kayan bawled up. As a freshman, that was his first game. He had 15 points. I think he was 6 for 10 shooting. Oh, Doe. Yeah, so he bawled up. I see Lala and Grandmoms was there. Yeah, I love to see that, man. Yeah, 15 points
Starting point is 00:34:57 on 6 to 10 shooting, three rebounds, three assists in 28 minutes, man. So, you know to young Cayenne. That's right. I saw him one last night. 285 to 47 against Binghamton. Okay, but don't forget the Cowboys lost last night, the Arizona Carliners beat him 47-17. I just want to make sure people know. You know the Giants lost on Sunday, too, right?
Starting point is 00:35:13 That's the problem with New Yorkers. The hypocrisy in New Yorkers is so ridiculous. Like, you know the Giants got their ass beat on Sunday, right? That's so old. We're not talking about that. We talked about yesterday. That's so old. Like, he's like a chick.
Starting point is 00:35:24 This wants to talk about old stuff. Like, nah, that was old. No, New Yorkers are like chicks that want to talk about old stuff. Y'all, that's all y'all do is live off your old glory days. But Cowboys, they got no old. glory day. They're super old. Oh, we definitely got a whole glory day. Okay, the 90s was our error. I'm sorry, Mimi. Go ahead. I'm sorry, Mimi.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Good morning, Mimi. Good morning, y'all. Happy Election Day. So today is Election Day and the stakes are high coast to coast from City Hall in New York to state houses in Virginia and in New Jersey. And even out here in California, so in New York City, though, President
Starting point is 00:35:55 Trump is turning heads with a surprise endorsement. He's backing former Governor Andrew Cuomo. He's a lifelong Democrat running as an independent instead of a Republican nominee, Curtis Sliwaw. Now, in true social, Trump told supporters yesterday, whether you personally like Cuomo or not, you have no choice. He urged voters not to back Sliwa, calling it a vote for Zoran Mondani.
Starting point is 00:36:19 Now, Mondani, he was on CNN last night. He was firing back saying that the endorsement proves that Cuomo and Trump are cut from the same cloth. Let's listen to what he had to say. But I do think New Yorkers must understand that. Andrew Cuomo waited until the final day before the election to have this be revealed. He wanted to be able to make the message to Democrats that he was, in fact, the governor that he said he was. And then right at the last moment, the last opportunity to fully embrace the MAGA movement that we have long said he is tied to.
Starting point is 00:36:49 So, Madani, he's also responding to Trump's remarks on 60 Minutes, where the president said that he would withhold federal money from New York City if he wins. Let's listen to that as well. So I think you could clearly see that Donald Trump is threatened by our campaign. He's threatened by it because like his, we've diagnosed the crisis in working-class New Yorkers' lives, the cost of living. But unlike him, we're actually going to deliver on that. And that is a contrast that he can't bear to see. And this money that we're talking about, it's money that New York City is owed. It's not Donald Trump's to decide which city or state will get what money.
Starting point is 00:37:20 This is the money that New Yorkers are owed, and this is the money that we're going to fight for. So that was him just responding to that. And so New Yorkers, of course, today is the day to vote. Meanwhile, in New Jersey and Virginia, voters are electing governors. today in New Jersey Democrat Mikey Cheryl and Republican Jack Chitorelli. They have sparred over affordability from housing
Starting point is 00:37:40 to taxes to utility bills. And in Virginia, Democrat Abigail Spanberger, she is centering her message on the economy. She's tying the ongoing shutdown and job cuts to Trump's policies. Her opponent, Republican, winsome
Starting point is 00:37:56 Earl Sears. And she's leaned heavily into social issues, but so far she's struggled to gain traction with voters. who are worried about their wallet. And out here in California, voters are weighing in on Proposition 50 today. And that's the measure that would redraw the state's congressional maps to temporarily add five Democrat leaning seats.
Starting point is 00:38:15 So from the economy to housing to drawing the maps, there's local elections almost going on in every city. And today is the day to make your voice heard. So election day is underway right now. Yeah, I'm definitely going to get my sticker when I go vote for governor of New Jersey. And I want to tell New Yorkers, if you support Zohran Mondani,
Starting point is 00:38:32 and you want Zoran Mandani to win you better go out there and vote today okay don't listen to the polls and think that he hasn't in the bag because I believe the election is going to be way closer than people think and folks are definitely mobilizing against Zoran Mandani you know what I'm saying
Starting point is 00:38:48 if you for them you better mobilize for them because they definitely mobilizing against them yeah in a very big way and while voters are making big decisions at the polls there's another chapter closing this week for families in the DMV area so Jess I have a question for you You grew up in Baltimore.
Starting point is 00:39:03 Did you ever go to Six Flags in Bowie? Absolutely. I did. That was like the park for us. Like, please don't tell me what I think you better tell me. What's that? I am about to tell you what you think I'm about to tell you. No.
Starting point is 00:39:14 So, yes, it is, there's a lot of memories tied to that park. It's trending on social media this morning. And that's because after 50 years in Operation Six Flags, America has officially closed its doors. Trash. Why? Because y'all wasn't doing? Well, the economy, but basically, the company says, that it is no longer part of its
Starting point is 00:39:34 larger Six Flags Corporation. They said that the booby location, it no longer fits into its long-term plan. And so the park, it's water parks. So what's that, Hurricane Harbor? Yes, Hurricane Harbor. Hurricane Bay. I'm sorry, Hurricane Bay. That's what it is.
Starting point is 00:39:49 All of that, the 100 rides, the show, the slides, the roller coasters, it is all gone. So this past weekend, crowds, they packed in for one last visit before it permanently shut down. but for families including you just it's marking what the end of an era a lot of summer memories and roller coasters and all that so absolutely so are they
Starting point is 00:40:10 going to put something else right there or they just like no y'all can't have nothing by they didn't say yet they just said right now it's closing and they want people to kind of visit their other locations or what there's a think there's a six flags in new jersey yeah it's about three hours away yeah but i don't know y'all don't understand how close that was in my house like that was so close we used to go there i used to sneak in like it would be crazy and that's why they closed and that's why they closed people like you that was sneaking in yeah oh my god yeah that's exactly why because they weren't making no money exactly no money yeah well they made it easy they
Starting point is 00:40:46 ain't really had people working there man they they ain't made it easy so people just go in damn oh my god all right sunday was the last day so um and while one institution is closing and saying goodbye another one is celebrating a big milestone. So Howard University, where I went to school, it just got a major boost thanks to philanthropist, McKenzie Scott, and she's donating $80 million to the university in unrestricted funds.
Starting point is 00:41:12 Yeah, it's $80 million. So that means because it's unrestricted, the money can be used wherever it's needed the most. Now, this isn't her first time giving back. So when you add her earlier gifts, so $40 million in 2020, $12 million in 2023. So Scott's total support for Howard now tops $132 million. Wow.
Starting point is 00:41:34 I know that is a lot of money. I can't wait until I can't do stuff like that. I cannot wait until you hit $80 million to Stock Carolina State University. That's amazing. Yeah, that's amazing. So the school says they plan to put $17 million toward the College of Medicine to help launch a new academic medical center. And millions more will go to students in need. But Howard isn't even the only HBCU benefiting from her.
Starting point is 00:41:57 her generosity. In the past weeks, she's given $38 million to Spelman, $63 million to Morgan State and $38 million to Alabama State University. So she's also Jeff Bezos' ex-wife, in case anyone didn't know that, and she has pledged to give away most of her fortune, and she's clearly keeping her promise. What is she doing that just to piss Jeff Bezos off? She knows Jeff Bezos's racist.
Starting point is 00:42:20 She's like, I got something for you. Oh, I take all your money and give it to these HBCU. Nan, and boo-boo. What if? I don't know whatever reason if we're doing it is but you know yeah salute to her man
Starting point is 00:42:33 damn man McKenzie's got to be doing it salute to her yeah that's what's up a lot of money given away there so well that's your front page news y'all
Starting point is 00:42:41 I'm Mimi Brown follow me I'm Mimi Brown TV for more stories follow the black information network download the free i heart radio app
Starting point is 00:42:48 and visit biann news dot com all right thank you Mimi peace Mimi thank you now when we come back pastor Michael Todd
Starting point is 00:42:55 we'll be joining us we're gonna talk to him next and don't move it's the breakfast club good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ NV.
Starting point is 00:43:05 Just hilarious. Sholomey and the guy. We are the breakfast club. We got a special guest in the building. We have Pastor Mike Todd. Welcome back, brother. What's going on, fam? Y'all good today?
Starting point is 00:43:13 Yeah, how are you feeling? How you doing, brother? I feel great, man. Y'all look good in there. Thank you. Before we dive into anything, I do have a question because they would make it front of me, right? What's up?
Starting point is 00:43:22 I was speaking to a pastor, and we were talking about the celebration of Halloween. Okay. And we used to go all out as a family We used to do these videos And you know, make it fun And I used to decorate the house And the pastor said, I don't know if it's a good idea
Starting point is 00:43:35 To go that far into it She said, I'm not gonna tell you don't trick a treat But what you're doing might be a little too far I got you What's your thoughts on it? So there is a whole bunch of different camps On this especially as people are Actually coming out of that holiday
Starting point is 00:43:50 My thing is This is a season where The origins of it are very dark, demonic, let's say, evil. There are specific things, though, that happen in our culture that I believe can be redeemed. So I have little kids that actually like dressing up. And if they dress up not on Halloween, it's not a bad thing. It's like, oh, look at him.
Starting point is 00:44:18 He looks like a little princess or anything like that. So what me and my family do is we use this opportunity to reach people with what we believe. with faith. We use this moment to bless people to give to them to actually, this is a time for people to actually meet their neighbors. Do you know how many people live in their neighborhood and never talk to their neighbors? Never actually, you drive by them, you look at their Christmas light, but you never talk to them. So we use this as a moment to actually meet our neighbors. We invite them to church. We bless them with the best candy. We actually talk to them and use it because all things can actually work together for good.
Starting point is 00:44:56 I definitely think that there are some evil things that happen in this season. Also, I think, to the pure, all things are pure. And there is something good that can come out of every situation. Also at the church, we do fall festivals, and we bring kids to the church. And we take something that culture uses some time to glorify something else, and we try to figure out a way where we can put hope, love, joy, peace in the middle of it. And so I just would encourage everybody to use this. as a moment to come together and not divide.
Starting point is 00:45:25 You know, so interesting, I don't think nobody's thinking about Halloween as something evil. It's community, it's joy. Like you said, it's the giving of the candy. It's a bonding thing with the family and the neighbor is. Like, I don't think nobody's looking at it like. Now, there are some evil stuff. Come on, now.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Hold on. Wait a minute. I mean, first off, all of the, come, why are he going to do that? Why are he dressed up as devils? Come on, man. Don't do it like that. People dress up as devil. And we do know.
Starting point is 00:45:53 So one day, and when people do this all year round, one day of people pretending. No, no, no, no. I think that. So horror movies are evil, too? I think a lot of the origins of them are. A lot of the killing, a lot of the evil spirits, a lot of the ghost stuff, a lot of demonic activity, the seances, the Ouija boards.
Starting point is 00:46:13 I mean, I could go on and on and on. I do believe that stuff is demonic and does, is spiritual from darkness. What about hip-hop? You're playing the records about people killing each other. I think a lot of that is evil origin as well. But you know what? Let's be honest. But you know what?
Starting point is 00:46:28 Did you go stop playing those records, Envy? Sholomey, he grew up, Jova's witness, and so he wasn't able to celebrate a bunch of holidays, so he is living out his little boy. You know what I mean? So he don't even look at it as a, you know, demonic and all that. What he about to say? No, I'm asking, but one, somebody would say that it's more diving into demonic ways
Starting point is 00:46:47 and worshiping the demons, worshiping the goals, you don't think that music does that? You worship it? Satan was, what was Satan? The Minister of Music? Yes, sir. Oh, okay. But do you worship it?
Starting point is 00:46:55 You worship music? Yes, I do, actually. I love hip-hop. I think that worship is a little different. I love it. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Worship is a definite bowing down to something. Okay, so let's be very clear about that.
Starting point is 00:47:09 And music is a conduit of worship. So I would encourage everybody, whatever you're listening to, there is something that can get into your heart, your spirit, your mind, your soul that will make you do things that is not. not what you would really want to do. It begins to show your allegiance and to make idols of different things. And so that's why music is so powerful. And I will say, I agree with you, that the origins of a lot of the music that is out and
Starting point is 00:47:36 that we listen to is from evil nature. Darkness. Oh, completely. It's not even close. But that's why you have to have strong will. If you have your own, you know what I'm saying? You got strong will, then you won't be affected. I will say that a strong wheel will get you so far
Starting point is 00:47:55 but there are things that are more powerful than a wheel there are decisions that you can make to partner with certain things that are stronger than your decision no I don't want to do that how many people have said I ain't going back to that dude and he called you at nighttime and you end up in his bed damn oh let me just say I'm just trying to say trick or treat what I'm saying is how many times have we said we're not going to eat the donut and we're sitting there with a box of crispy creams how many times have we said so strong will is not always enough i really believe that you have to not just have strong will you actually have to have disciplines
Starting point is 00:48:32 practices things that are accountable around you because if you don't you will end up i think everybody listening and everybody in this room has done stuff we had a strong will that we were not going to do yeah for sure and and that's why i think that we really have to to to put our faith in something that's stronger than our strong will and have a foundation that'll never change and for me that's Jesus Christ see Charlemagne is the type of person you give up cigarettes and he'd be like
Starting point is 00:48:57 but you still drink a soda though but you know yeah can I be comfortable with what I want to be comfortable with sir I'm not judging I'm just saying but also too what he failed to mention is I don't think you can I don't think you can do a little bit of evil so if you think something is wrong
Starting point is 00:49:14 you can't do a little bit of it I got you you understand what I'm saying so either you're going to stop doing it all together, or you're still sending. I'm just not diving. I'm just not diving into the huge thing that I used to do before and do these huge videos and
Starting point is 00:49:29 decorations and productions. I'm not doing that. If my kids wanted to dress up and trick-treat with their friends, I'm cool it, but I'm not opening up my door for that negativity in my house. We got to celebrate this. This is progression though, and not perfection. And I think that everybody has to do that. Because there will be the Charlemains of this world that always
Starting point is 00:49:44 try to pick out what you're not doing. Yes. Every day. But I need, I felt that that you need an amen right there huh but I feel like that that's not the way that people change people don't fall into their vices all of a sudden they fall in
Starting point is 00:50:00 progressively it's watching something it's doing something it's then participating in it all the time and it's becoming it no this is all of a sudden because on Friday he was telling us how he forgot his costume he was supposed to be damed as blah blah blah and then all of a sudden the day you're like my past and time
Starting point is 00:50:15 but I said clearly I said and then in the next break shout out to everybody who celebrated Halloween this week. But the thing The transition is messy I said the production I'm not doing the production and opening up my house to that
Starting point is 00:50:28 Envy I'm with you I am still go I still go out with my kids Hey listen Don't let them Do not let him or anybody else Don't do anybody else It's him
Starting point is 00:50:37 Okay it's just trying to But this is what I'm saying The truth of the matter Is all transitions And have tension When you're trying to make a change Especially when you have been something else
Starting point is 00:50:49 You have to realize that people won't understand your transition because a lot of times that transition is supposed to happen in the dark. It's supposed to have a dark room. You have to develop into that thing. And because you guys do everything in front of everybody and somebody can pull up what you said last week or last year or last month. And like you're not that. Hey, forget all of that. For everybody that's listening in this room right now and that's in here, progression is messy. Would you tell Bruce Jenna the same thing?
Starting point is 00:51:16 I'm in my mind. Because I was thinking that when he's going to say, transgresses, and I was thinking of it. Nothing. And again, and again, what I'm going to tell you is progression and changing into who God has created you to be is a messy process. And sometimes you go back and forth. Sometimes you're trying to figure it out. Sometimes you're trying to feel what's real to you and what you actually have to do. You're one of the few pastors who really speak the language of culture, right?
Starting point is 00:51:41 Where's the line between relevance and reverence for you? Yeah. So the line is at the conviction. I really have a relationship with God where he will correct me and convict me and I have a relationship with people who have the sit down and shut up card in my life and most people when they get to certain levels
Starting point is 00:52:00 nobody can tell them nothing but I have a wife shout out to my wife Natalie who is the greatest gift that God ever gave me I met my wife when I was 15 years old and we've been together for 23 years married 15 four kids later and she's the only woman that sees me fully
Starting point is 00:52:18 and when I say fully she sees my insecurity, she sees my fault she sees my lack, she sees my successes and God gave her to me to be a mirror she don't care about none of this she don't care about anything she cares that I am a man of God
Starting point is 00:52:36 and I do what I say and so first off if I'm coming home laying next to that every night that's a line hey Mike that was too far for real hey you shouldn't have said that oh dang I thought that
Starting point is 00:52:49 like so I have people like that in my life and that's just she's the main one but I have several others and so I approach everything with reverence I think that sometimes people get confused though the the way people present
Starting point is 00:53:05 something with being irreverent just because it's different and one of the things that I know for me is like I would be this way if I was an Amazon truck driver I would like clothes I would I would listen to music I would do different like
Starting point is 00:53:20 and God doesn't bless who you pretend to be he blesses who you really are and so for me it's like God's changed me every part of my life throughout this journey and he's continuing to change me that's why I lead a church called Transformation Church
Starting point is 00:53:37 I will not be the same this time next year something in me will have changed and prayerfully something in you would have changed and that's why a lot of time We take snapshots of people in their life, and we keep them there. But please, make sure you running a movie on me because I'm going to keep changing. I mean, three years ago, I was 275 pounds. Stop line.
Starting point is 00:54:00 I am not playing with you, Jess. I'll give you, pull up a picture of me in 200. You was 275 pounds. I was hiding it in them 3x, 4X, Supreme. I was fly. You couldn't tell. But then God convicted me. He said, how are you going to tell you?
Starting point is 00:54:15 these people to live right and you are going to commit sin every day with your fork. Nobody talks about the donuts. That was you. That was me because the truth of the matter is I was sinning not with a woman. I was sending with a donut. And every, hey, listen, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, people, people, I get what you say. Hey, you're laughing about it. No, no, no, no, it's funny.
Starting point is 00:54:42 But the truth of the matter is people are out here judging other people. for lying and commit adultery, and they're doing it all while committing sin. That's real. That's real. Like, food was meant for us to be nourished to fulfill God's plan, not to become something to give us peace when we need to go to him for peace. And so, again, that conviction came to me, and God was like, I don't want you to say nothing until you get your life in order. And so I turned my garage into a gym.
Starting point is 00:55:11 I heard a personal trainer. me and my wife work out every day together and I've lost 60 pounds my wife fined than she ever been in her whole life God I thank you and what I'm saying is but it came because I got convicted like and so and again
Starting point is 00:55:29 we all miss the mark everybody misses the mark and falls short of the glory of God but we all got to keep trying you know what yes I was 275 that's okay that's crazy that's crazy yeah but yeah And I was, not like, like, you know he's big enough. It was under day.
Starting point is 00:55:47 It was under day. He's not big as shit, but he big enough. I'm not. Hey, God doesn't bless who you pretend to be. He blesses who you really are. I do not cusses, though. But I, but I, but he doesn't. He don't smoke, he don't drink.
Starting point is 00:56:02 So what are you going over there for? Hey, listen. Don't judge, huh? Listen, you can cuss around me. Thank you. You're still. You're shitting. Why?
Starting point is 00:56:10 I'm going to tell your mama. Why? What would your mama say? this is religion same thing you say it but oh speak on that this is religion what's happening right now is religion religion says that i i'm doing something because of who's around i'm doing something because of how it makes me look i'm doing something because of how i want you to view me if that's not who you really are it can never change and so for me i tell people all the time if you cuss around me something in me though my prayer is we spend enough time together would allow you
Starting point is 00:56:40 to see that that's not the type of language that you have to use to get your point across. Right. But if that's what you choose, I would still rather be connected to you and have access to you and love you and be able to be an answer to your problems than to be disconnected
Starting point is 00:56:57 because you cuss. Right. Now I draw the line at Colgan At Cote. Well, I don't do none of that. I'm saying. Don't do that around me. Some stuff you can't do around me. I mean, there are tons of things you can't do around me just for the reasons of what I'm trying to live. But the truth for the matter is sometimes we use those things and we act like that's a God thing.
Starting point is 00:57:15 And it's actually your personal thing. That's real. Like, stop putting everything on God and say, like, I don't like when you cuss around me. Like, hey. But certain things of respect, though. Like, you ain't a curse around your mama. You are certainly right. Some people do.
Starting point is 00:57:29 Depending on who your mama is. Right. And what I'm saying is, if you don't do it around your mama, but you do it around everybody else, you're a faker. Ooh. And what happens is But what I'm saying is you're disintegrated. You are learning and practicing being different people. And there are too many people why depression is all high,
Starting point is 00:57:51 while people are dealing with anxiety because they forget who they have to show up as. So every room I walk into, I show up as myself. I don't have to. Here we go. Hey, I'm Cal Penn. And on my new podcast, here we go again. We'll take today's trends and headlines. and ask, why does history keep repeating itself?
Starting point is 00:58:11 You may know me as the second hottest actor from the Harold and Kumar movies, but I'm also an author, a White House staffer, and as of like 15 seconds ago, a podcast host. Along the way, I've made some friends who are experts in science, politics, and pop culture. And each week, one of them will be joining me to answer my burning questions.
Starting point is 00:58:30 Like, are we heading towards another financial crash like in 08? Is non-monogamy back in style? And how come there's never a gate ready for your flight when it lands like two minutes early? We've got guests like Pete Buttigieg, Stacey Abrams, Lili Singh, and Bill Nye. When you start weaponizing outer space, things can potentially go really wrong. Look, the world can seem pretty scary right now, because it is. But my goal here is for you to listen and feel a little better about the future.

Two young Americans moved to the Costa Rican jungle to start over. But one will end up dead. The other tried for murder. Not once. People went wild.
Starting point is 00:59:25 Not twice. Stunned. But three times. John and Ann Bender are rich and attractive. And they're devoted to each other. They create a nature reserve and build a spectacular circular home high on the top of a hill. But little by little, their dream starts to crumble

The Big Take podcast from Bloomberg News dives deep into one big global business story every weekday.
Starting point is 01:00:15 A shutdown means we don't get the data, but it also means for President Trump that there's no chance of bad news on the labor market. What does a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich reveal about the economy? Our breakfast foods are consistent consumer staples, and so they sort of become outsize indicators of inflation. What's behind Elon Musk's trillion dollar payout? There's a sort of concerted effort to message that Musk is coming back. He's putting politics aside. He's left the White House. And what can the PCE tell you that the CPI can't?
Starting point is 01:00:49 CPI tries to measure out-of-pocket costs that consumers are paying for things, whereas the PCE index that the Fed targets is a little bit broader of a measure. Listen to the big take from Bloomberg News every weekday afternoon. on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. All I know is what I've been told, and that's a half-truth is a whole lie. For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved, until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls, came forward with a story. I'm telling you, we know Quincy Kilder, we know.
Starting point is 01:01:37 A story that law enforcement used to convict six people and that got the citizen investigator on national TV. Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran. My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find. I did not know her and I did not kill her
Starting point is 01:02:04 Or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y'all said it They literally made me say that I took a match And struck and threw it on her They made me say that I poured gas on her From Lava for Good This is Graves County A show about just how far Our legal system will go

In early 19, In 1888, federal agents raced to track down the gang they suspect of importing millions of dollars worth of heroin into New York from Asia. We had 30 agents ready to go with shotguns and rifles and you name it. But what they find is not what they expected. Basically, your stay-at-home moms were picking up these large amounts of heroin. They go, is this your daughter? I said yes. They go, oh, you may not see her for like 25 years.
Starting point is 01:03:30 Caught between a federal investigation and the violent gang who recruited them, the women must decide who they're willing to protect and who they dare to betray. Once I saw the gun, I tried to take his hand, and I saw the flash of light. Listen to the Chinatown Stang on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or anywhere you get your podcasts. Have to change. I live a whole life. Most people, dependent on who walks in, the bishop walks in, the CEO walks in, or a celebrity walks in. They are trying to figure out who do I need to be right now.
Starting point is 01:04:06 So if you're cursing in front of your friends, you should curse in front of your mama or you're a faker? Yes. Well, this is the thing. That sounds crazy. My mother with my butt. Yes. So that's the same, though.
Starting point is 01:04:15 You know what I'm saying? You've been a faker. Say, yes. So the truth of the matter is because there's a reason why she doesn't want you to talk like that, and you're choosing to go beyond that because I'm going to live my own life. It's your own personal convictions.
Starting point is 01:04:29 I'm just saying that, I'd rather you be the same way so that God could actually change you instead of him having to find which version of you you're going to be today. Is it conditioning or conviction? And what I mean by that is, as Jess said, we're all conditioned and not talk like that in front of our parents, for the most part, right? So is it conditioning our conviction? Because I don't care in front of my mom just because I know she ain't going for it. Right. Again, I think it could actually be the, it's conditioning.
Starting point is 01:04:55 Like you know that, especially in the black household. Like, there's certain things you don't do here. but wait till y'all kids start doing it do you let your kids cuss in front of you god damn i mean oh my god not you what you say no no i don't do you let your kids cuss in front of you hell no do you let your kids cuss in front of you no but i have asked my 17 year old
Starting point is 01:05:14 when she was younger 60 i said do you curse and she was like yes so all of you can i cannot just be as your brother yes you're living in a state of delusion watch watch watch watch because you literally are doing the same thing your parents did to you You've been conditioned and you know your kids are doing the same thing you're doing. But for respect purposes, you would rather not teach them how to have a stronger vocabulary or teach them a reason why they cuss or do it. You would rather just be a secret from you and just don't do it around me.
Starting point is 01:05:46 But then you could go online and see them cussing out people and listen, all of y'all is like, it's a respect thing. And it's like, all we're doing is keeping the cycle going. We're not changing language. We're not increasing vocabulary. giving reasons or even understanding reasons why they're doing it all we're doing is creating a barrier for them to be inauthentic around us and so most parents are not the people their kids go to when they're in need because there's all of these micro fake things that we put up around ourselves so when I'm
Starting point is 01:06:19 really struggling I'm not coming to you because I can't be real because I'm pissed that these people did is and I need to cuss to whoever I'm talking to right now and I can't cuss to my parents because it's disrespectful So I got hurt, and I'm pissed, and I'm mad, and I can't do this, and we conditioned them to do that. So all I'm saying to you is, like, it's delusional. I do. I don't disagree with you, but I feel like we're kind of conflating two issues, and what I mean by that is, when my kids, when my daughter, she'll be 18 next year, she curves in front of me.
Starting point is 01:06:46 I don't, I don't care at that point. You're just talking about in the season that you're raising her. Absolutely. I love me. And I get it. And I also think that, dang, I think I lost my other point. Oh, I did lose my other point. It's all right.
Starting point is 01:06:58 In the season that you, I do believe the Bible says train a child in the way they should go. So when they get old, they won't depart from it. It's not just what you say, though. It is what you do. You're training them both ways. So if you're teaching your children or teaching anybody, hey, you can do this. Just don't do it around me. Is that really what we're trying to teach them?
Starting point is 01:07:19 I'm just teaching them that everything, there's a season for everything. You turn 18, you an adult now. You can have a conversation. The other thing I was going to say is, I don't think, oh, that was what I was talking. talking about. I don't think cursing is a barrier that keeps children from wanting to be open with you. I think that you just want to establish
Starting point is 01:07:35 a level of trust to where they feel like they can talk to you about anything. I don't think them having to curse keeps that... I think the way that some parents act when their kids say things they hear their parents say does create barriers. I'm going to just leave it at that. I do what you say. I counsel
Starting point is 01:07:51 and work with a lot of people that do not have healthy relationships with their parents. You act like this over a curse word. Imagine how you act. If I tell you, I'm having sex. Or I'm a lesbian. Or I try these drugs.
Starting point is 01:08:04 I get it. Over, damn? I get it. No, I'm not talking to you. Yeah. And so I'm just saying from the other side of helping a lot of people's kids who are adults that are 33 and 35 and 42. And at grave sites forgiving their parents because of how they didn't have interaction with them. I'm just saying like, I would, yeah, I would do it a little different.
Starting point is 01:08:27 Yeah. I want to ask you, Mike, the pastor's Todd, about this. They said, Pastor Michael Todd slammed for distracting outfit during sermon on faith, and they said you had on what was considered feminine preaching attire. You had a dress on? No, he had no dress on. I was going to ask, when clips of your sermons go viral, sometimes, I guess, for the wrong reasons. How do you handle being misinterpreted?
Starting point is 01:08:50 What's feminine about that? You tell me, bro, it's black slacks, wide leg, that's in train. It's a black shirt And it's a cropped Leather top And it's got Chelsea boots on that Are yellow So my
Starting point is 01:09:05 The truth They didn't know you had that shape You're showing shape That the top showing shape Wear it all of three X's They used to the 275 They used to the 275 And the thing is
Starting point is 01:09:16 Nobody said anything to me When my belly was Literally folding over my belt I was more holy then like but but but because I got fit and healthy and I can wear a larger medium now it's feminine yeah it's the culture we live in like you know what I'm saying like the truth of the matter is to play ball at this level there's going to be opinions and pressure
Starting point is 01:09:42 how do you take people serious with that way they forget your word but they look at your I'm like what that with the first thing I thought was like I want to hear what he was talking about yeah right literally I'm like I want to go hear the word and and again that's part of the reason why I have critics and anybody that decides to do anything other than stay in the house will have critics and it's part of the process that God allows me to endure to be more like him. I pray for all those people. Now that's the hard part. The hard part is seeing Christman 666 say something about me and having to be like, God, I thank you, Father, whatever made him post that comment or say that, I thank you that you would heal.
Starting point is 01:10:25 his heart and give him the ability to have grace and capacity for other people. Like that's hard. But that's what the Bible tells us to do. That's like love your enemy. Pray for them. Pray for those who despitefully use you. These people don't know me. And the truth for the matter the reason I wore that is because my wife told me she liked
Starting point is 01:10:41 it. Literally that morning, my wife was like, I like that one. It was between this one and this one. And she's like, I like that one. So the crazy thing is like those are just things to distract you. And for me, I have stay focused. And I have too much to do
Starting point is 01:10:57 in this world and to be put off by that. Is it wrong to be inspired by you know, the word of another preacher? Because a lot of people, right, they think if they go to church and they hear one person say this and preach their sermon this way or whatever, whatever, and then they go and they
Starting point is 01:11:13 see somebody else say it, then it's stealing. No. You know what I'm saying? Like bars and a rap song. No. You know, how do you feel about that? If that's the case, then we're stealing from Paul, John. We're stealing from David. We're still. No, the gospel is meant to be shared. And the only reason that people try to corner the market on something is because they're insecure that they'll ever get anything else.
Starting point is 01:11:33 The truth of the matter is that protection of like, I said it like this, I said it like that. Like, if the whole goal is that the gospel of Jesus Christ be proclaimed so that everybody would know about him, if you don't know how to talk a certain way, please use my words and tell them. If that helped you, help them with it. Like, this is the kingdom of God. And again, because the kingdom in a lot of areas has been turned into an organization instead of an organism, like, then people are like, now it's my, you know, my property and my this and I said it like this and it's like, yo, I tell young preachers all the
Starting point is 01:12:11 time, take my stuff, preach it exactly how I preach it. We have people do it all the time. I send people my notes like, yeah, what are you talking about? Like this is the inspired word of God. Like there are certain lines, like if I put it in a book and say it a certain way and the company I'm partnering with has a contract that it has to be said you can't take that but like my messages and like how I said it like just my only thing is do it better yeah now would you like them to credit you at least yeah that would be awesome but I mean how many of us wear
Starting point is 01:12:46 clothes that was inspired by somebody saw on Instagram and we don't credit them and it's like oh that fit is crazy I'm right and so yeah like everybody wants to wants to be recognized, everybody wants credit. But for me, I know it's going to happen because of the level that God has raised my platform to, for whatever reason, that somebody's going to take that stuff. And my prayer is that it helps them the way it helped you. Yeah, I saw them accuse you of taking some some pastor's sermon, word for word. I didn't listen to it, but I'm like, it's the word.
Starting point is 01:13:17 It's the word, bro. And if somebody, if somebody's breaking something down in a way that makes me understand, like y'all just said, A lot of this stuff is confusing. A lot of this stuff is, we got to figure it out. So if somebody gets a revelation or gets understanding or it's like, oh, it's like, yes, copy, paste. Like, tell some other people. And this is the other thing that everybody has to remember. How you say it will be different because you have different oil than them.
Starting point is 01:13:46 Like, there's a different thing on your life than what they have on their life. I think I heard Sarah Jake say it a couple days ago. that like you can take the recipe you can take the plans but when we do it because that oil different that process I went through different it's different and so
Starting point is 01:14:05 and so that's oh she is a beast her and Torre are doing an amazing job in Dallas and again it's kingdom so I went to their installation service I didn't preach at my church and went there because people need to see this is not about
Starting point is 01:14:21 one thing This is about the kingdom of God. And so, yeah, man, everybody, PSA, if you hear Pastor Mike Priest something or something and you feel like it could help your Bible study or your youth group or your big church or little church, you can use that, man, help people get to Jesus. There you go. Well, let's end this on a prayer. Father, I thank you for this day.
Starting point is 01:14:45 I thank you for the opportunity to share with my brothers and sister. I thank you for all the things that you're doing in each of our lives and all the lives of the listeners. Today, God, I thank you that we all go on a journey of progression. Faith is something that we actually know is real, but it's something we all have to discover. And so I thank you that you would allow everybody that's in this room and that's listening to have an experience with you that would be undeniable. I thank you, Father, as people are getting furloughed right now and going through situations that are literally unimaginable in America. I thank you, Father, God, that you would be peace that passes their understanding. Make ways out of no way.
Starting point is 01:15:22 Do things that no man could do, Father God. With man, it's impossible, but with God, it is possible. Today, Father, God, I'm thanking you that all things are working together for the good of those who are called and that love you. And, Father, if somebody does not know you, if somebody has been far from you, Father, thank you that your love, even through this interview, is drawing them back home. I thank you for transformation happening in people's lives. And I think that people would get to know the way, the truth in the life. Jesus. In Jesus' name, we pray.
Starting point is 01:15:49 Amen. Appreciate y'all, man. It's the breakfast club, you know. Just let my phone charge over there. I didn't know that was your phone. Yes. Salute the pastor Michael Todd. I didn't know that was just phone.
Starting point is 01:16:00 I just see a phone sitting in. I'm like, why the hell is Chris FaceTime and me? My husband faces my screenstable. Y'all, don't forget with me. I'm charging my phone by him. Let's get to the latest with Lauren. Lauren becoming a straight back. Tell her, man.
Starting point is 01:16:13 She gets him from somebody that knows somebody. She gets to detail. I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything. She'd be having the latest on this. The latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit everything. Well, it's the latest. On the breakfast club.
Starting point is 01:16:30 Talk to me. This news is breaking right now. Former Vice President Dick Cheney has died at age 84. He died, according to a statement from his family, from complications of pneumonia and cardiac vascular disease. This happened late last night, and he was surrounded by his family, including his wife and his daughter, Liz, and he's known as one of the, you know, most powerful vice presidents in U.S. history. So as this news breaks, just wanted to make sure we mentioned here as well.
Starting point is 01:17:03 In other news, yesterday, Sherry Shepard, received her star on the Walk of Fame, and it was such a great ceremony. She spoke, of course, but she also had the people there speaking for her, Tyler Perry, Nisi Nash, you know those, you know that they're like best friends. Let's take a listen to Sherry Shepard receiving her Walk of Fame. Thank you so much to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce for giving me such an honor. I need to thank Jesus. Everybody who knows me, I don't thump you over the head with my beliefs, but I'm a very spiritual person.
Starting point is 01:17:40 And I know that I would not be here without my Lord and my Savior Jesus Christ. Because like Tyler said and Nisi said, you don't see what goes on behind the smile. but God does. Those deep desires that you never talk to anybody about, those dreams that you have, God knows those dreams. And so I'm so grateful for everything you have done for me and those dreams of mine, those tears that you have wiped up, Father God, I thank you. I thank you that you've never left me, nor forsaken me. I thank you, Father God, that you've always said, do you trust me? And sometimes I was honest and said, hell, no, I don't. But that you never. gave up on me and you never stopped loving me.
Starting point is 01:18:24 That's right. Drop on the cruise of on to Sherry Sheppel, man. Yeah. Well deserving, too, by the way. Yes, she has worked so hard and just watching her transition through different phases of her career from comedy to TV to now, like, daytime talk. So Nisi Nash talked for her a bit. You know, they come up and give, you know, speeches, close friends, all the, all the things.
Starting point is 01:18:46 So Nisi Nash talked about just their come up in this. And her speech was also very emotional. listen to Niecy Nash. Almost 30 years ago, I stepped onto my first comedy stage to do stand-up. And the host said, give it up for the sassy single Mama Nisi Nash. And that host was the Sherry Yvonne Sheppard. She followed me into the bathroom and said, girl, you funny. And I look back at her and said, girl, I know.
Starting point is 01:19:15 And we have been tethered ever since. I remember us dreaming in my mama's back room about all of the success and all of the things that we wanted to make happen to know that even at her worst points in life, she has given her gift to bring other people joy. I would have never thought that these two girls, well in the nation and my mama's back room, would both have stars on a Hollywood Walk of Fame right across the street from each other. That's amazing. Shout out Denise and Sherry Sheppie. Yeah, that's dope. And lastly, Tyler Perry was there as well, too, who we know has been very, like, you know,
Starting point is 01:19:59 influential in her career, and he had a few words that he shared. People on the planet that were sent here to bring light, and then there are the people who are here to be light. Sherry is a person that is light. When she walks in the room, you feel it, you know it. She makes everybody feel seen. That's a special gift,
Starting point is 01:20:17 and I'm thankful to God that he gave it to you and I got a chance to witness it up close you are really an incredible human being that's amazing yeah and she has her

Starting point is 01:23:02 Man, for after the hour, we need a man, 39-year-old Charles Legget. I just, I don't know what model humans they're even making no more, but we'll discuss for after the hour. All right. We'll get to that next. It's the breakfast club. Good morning. on the donkey of the day is something to go hold. Is it a re?
Starting point is 01:23:18 It gave me donkey of the day and I deserve it. You need to know. What you need to tell them. I am. You have the voice. Tell them. It's time for donkey of the day. It's a reed, but you're so good at it.
Starting point is 01:23:31 You're trying to be a fake-ass Charlemagne. You only want Charlemagne to God. Damn, Salamee, who you give a dusty other day to then? Well, sexy red donkey today for Tuesday, November 4th Election Day goes to a 39-year-old Milwaukee man named Charles Leggett. I'm not even joking. Sometimes I read stories and I say to myself,
Starting point is 01:23:49 what world do I not live in? Okay, because sometimes I feel like an extraterrestrial looking at a version of earth that I don't live in. Okay, see, I'm fully aware that crazy is, is crazy does,
Starting point is 01:24:00 and crazy is all around us. But sometimes I read certain stories and I think to myself, what motto human is this? Okay, see, Charles is 39 years old. So he was born in 1986, and I have a theory that after about 80,
Starting point is 01:24:14 83, 84, definitely 85, the universe just started making any old body. Okay, I didn't say God, all right. What I think happened was God got busy. It's a lot going on in all these various universes and afterlifes. So God regulated some duties. And the manufacturing of humans changed drastically, okay? Same ingredients? Different recipes.
Starting point is 01:24:33 And Charles Leggett is yet another example of, boy, they just don't make homo sapiens like they used to. Okay, see, Charles is in jail for first degree reckless homicide and possession of a firearm by a felon. I know one of you bad recipes is out there thinking what's wrong with first degree reckless homicide. It's always been a reason to kill somebody. By the way, if you believe that, you should be arrested right now. Now, what is Charles in jail for? Let's go to Foxx News News Milwaukee for the report, please. We went there, and my brother, he's tried to stand to talk to him, and he shot him in the chest.
Starting point is 01:25:05 Muhammad Owes says his 26-year-old brother, Jamil Owis, got shot during an argument over a pizza order at this convenience store on March. with your King Drive Saturday. Prosecutors say 38-year-old Charles Leggett told him he ordered a pizza but was upset that a worker was not wearing gloves while preparing the pizza. Leggett told investigators he and always got into an argument. He also confirmed that it was him in the surveillance video of the shooting. Leggett is charged with first degree reckless homicide for the use of a dangerous weapon and possession of a firearm by outstate felon.
Starting point is 01:25:41 Shot and killed him all because the person who made. this pizza wasn't wearing gloves. Okay, there is not a pizza alive worth killing over. Okay, not Papa John's, Domino's Pizza Hut, Blaze Pizza. Now, I might curse you out over cuts and slices in New York City. Drop on a clues bomb for cuts and slices. Okay, that's some pizza worth maybe a verbal altercation, okay? If you got into a fist fight over cutting slices, I might understand.
Starting point is 01:26:03 But Milwaukee, this man killed someone over a pizza being made at action food and liquor near King Drive and Keith Avenue. Okay, salute to everyone who listens us on B100.7 in Milwaukee. Does that pizza slap like that? Okay? It's like what the hell's going on? It has to be a note for Charles to get so triggered, right? Now, I'm going to be honest with you.
Starting point is 01:26:22 This is one of the reasons I don't like to eat out. I've noticed this that folks don't be using gloves and I feel like I remember reading that some of them feel like it's more unsanitary to wear gloves because with gloves you're touching everything. So you're actually getting a lot more germs on the gloves. But when you don't wear gloves, you're constantly washing your hands
Starting point is 01:26:40 before you touch things. And since you're constantly washing your hands, that's considered more sanitary. People who do that line of work for a living, feel free to call me and let me know if I got that right. 1-8005-150-105-1. Now, even though I've seen people making food with no gloves on, and I may not like it,
Starting point is 01:26:57 you know what I never thought about doing to that individual? Killing them! My brain just does not work that way. Some things you really have to go out of your way to do. I would think, okay, but I was born in 1978, So I'm an old model. The model I am came with some common sense, the ability to reason, the ability to make choices. Now, did we always make the right choices?
Starting point is 01:27:20 No. And I've seen people killed for some stupid things. But killing someone because they weren't wearing gloves while making your pizza is a new level of stupid. Okay, Charles, if you upset that the person making your pizza wasn't wearing gloves, how are you going to feel in prison when the person sodomizing you from the back isn't wearing a condom? And you're not going to have no pistol to protect yourself. That man going to be touching your cheeks with no. gloves and it's going to be in that moment that you realized you made the wrong decision.
Starting point is 01:27:47 Okay, let me tell you something. We keep saying, we got to stop killing each other, but then you see a story like this where someone loses their life over some pizza. Every single time you pull a trigger over some foolishness, you're not just ending one life, you're ending two. The victims in your own. Some of y'all out here turning minor disagreements into major crimes like it's a sport. Okay, you can't control your temper.
Starting point is 01:28:10 You can't control your ego or your end. impulses, permanent decisions becoming, you know, no, temporary feelings becoming permanent decisions, okay? No, what am I saying? Permanent decisions over temporary feelings. Yes, that's what I'm trying to say, okay? This is why I be stressing going to therapy. This is why I be stressing folks, especially men, to heal what's hurting them because they
Starting point is 01:28:32 end up projecting that pain onto others. This wasn't about pizza. This was about trauma. And when you don't deal with your trauma, you bleed on people who didn't even cut you. It's so much in this story Gun violence, mental health issues I will just end like this Real men don't shoot to prove a point
Starting point is 01:28:49 You walk away to preserve one Please let Rememima give Charles Leggett The biggest he-ha He-ha, he-ha! You stupid motherfucker-a, you dumb And Charles has been found guilty in a court of law, by the way, okay? He was found guilty
Starting point is 01:29:05 over that argument over pizza and he's sentenced to be He's scheduled to be sentenced on December 17th. Yes. Okay. Yeah, man. It's homicide. What I say? Homicide. That's what you heard. No, that's what you said.
Starting point is 01:29:22 It's homicide. Homicide. Oh, I can't pronounce things. All right. We know. Well, speaking of homicide, all right, real men don't shoot to prove they hard. They walk away because they don't want to end up in prison with a man with a hard penis. All right. Man clapping your cheeks from the back. Okay, humming, take me through there. Take me through there. Okay. Can you imagine? No.
Starting point is 01:29:44 I don't want to imagine that. Jesus, all right. Well, that was donkey of the day. All right. Now, when we come back... 800-585-105-1. Now, Pastor Mike Todd was just on the show. And he talked about something
Starting point is 01:29:57 where I see people are asking about. He talked about your kids cursing in front of you. And this is what he said about it. Stop putting everything on God and say, like, I don't like when you cuss around me. But certain things of respect, though. You ain't going to curse around your mama. You are certainly...
Starting point is 01:30:12 Some people do. Depending on who your mama is. If you don't do it around your mama, but you do it around everybody else, you're a faker. We're all conditioned and not talk like that in front of our parents, for the most part, right? So it's conditioning our conviction.
Starting point is 01:30:25 Because I don't care the front of my... Here we go. Hey, I'm Cal Penn. And on my new podcast, Here We Go again.

Even though they are such a powerful player in finance, you wouldn't really know that you are interacting with them. And even harder to understand. Donald Trump's trade war, 2.0, is only accelerating the process of de-dollarization, which in a way is jargon for people turning away from the dollar. That is where the big take from Bloomberg podcast comes in, to connect the dots.

All I know is what I've been told, and that's a half-truth is a whole lie. For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved, until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls came forward with a story. telling you, we know Quincy killed her. We know.
Starting point is 01:34:12 A story that law enforcement used to convict six people, and that got the citizen investigator on national TV. Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran. My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find. I did not know her and I did not kill her.
Starting point is 01:34:39 or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y'all said it. They literally made me say that I took a match and struck and threw it on her. They made me say that I poured gas on her. From Lava for Good, this is Graves County, a show about just how far our legal system will go in order to find someone to blame.

A hundred percent of women go through menopause. It can be such a struggle for our quality of life, but even if it's natural, why should we suffer through it?

It's conditioning. Like, you know that.
Starting point is 01:36:36 especially in the black household. Like, there's certain things you don't do here. But wait until y'all kids start doing it. Do you let your kids cuss in front of you? God damn. I mean, oh, my God, not you. What did you say? No, no, I don't.
Starting point is 01:36:48 Do you let your kids cuss in front of you? Hell no. Do you let your kids cuss in front of you? No, but I have asked my 17-year-old, when she was younger, 16, I said, do you curse? And she was like, yes. I understand what Pastor Michael Todd was saying. I get what he was saying too, but I don't agree with it.
Starting point is 01:37:01 Yeah, I don't get it. What he was saying was, you know, if you, we didn't play that part, I don't think. But, you know, if you punish your child for doing something like cursing in front of you, they might not come to you with bigger issues because they're like, damn, if I curse in front of my parents, just how they disappoint me. And they react like this.
Starting point is 01:37:19 Yeah. So why would I come with something else? Like if I want, if I had sex of drugs. But cursing is not the same of having sex and drugs and asking those questions, right? I think it's a form of respect. No, it's not. It's respect. And that's why I told them we're conflating two different issues.
Starting point is 01:37:35 like he's basically saying if you if you if you if you punish your child for cursing they won't come to you with other things no you're not punishing your child for cursing you're telling your child not to curse because of a respect thing the same why you tell your kids if there's an elder person you say sir a ma'am yes but you also tell your kids no you don't curse in front of me I'm not your friend yes you show me the respect it's like you don't curse in front of your teacher you know I mean but that doesn't mean your child's a fake or you're a fake if you don't curse in front of your mom but you're cursing you front of your friends I think that's why I say we're conflating two different issues like you're you're not I mean you're he's talking about if you curse in front of your parents and then your parent punishes you for cursing that may make the child not come with bigger issues no I thought like we were talking about two or three different things in that one conversation so we were talking about two different things but overall he was just saying that we are teaching our kids the same thing we were conditioned to think like you know what I mean like that that that's like a generation thing you couldn't curse in front of your mother because she didn't like that all right so we train our kids
Starting point is 01:38:31 the same way and we're conditioning them unintentionally um to like be afraid of us that's like what he was saying i don't think it has anything to do with fear i think it has to do with respect but let's let's take your calls when we come back 800 585 101 uh what are your thoughts he said that if you don't curse in front of your parents but you close in cursing from your friends you're a faker i don't agree let's discuss 800585105105 one is the breakfast club good morning Pull out your phone
Starting point is 01:38:59 Call in right now Call me Add your opinion to the breakfast club topic Break it down 800-585-105-1 The Breakfast Club Morning That he's calling my phone
Starting point is 01:39:13 It's topic time Call it 8505-105-1 to join in to the discussion With the Breakfast Club Morning everybody It's DJ NVV, Jess Hilary Sholomey Nagy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we're opening up the phone lines 800-585-105-1.
Starting point is 01:39:33 We're talking about Pastor Michael Todd. He was saying that if you don't curse in front of your parents, but you curse in front of your friends, you are considered a faker. Let's listen to what he said. Stop putting everything on God and say, like, I don't like when you cuss around me. But certain days of respect, though. Like, you ain't go curse around your mama. You are certainly right. Some people do.
Starting point is 01:39:53 Depending on who your mama is. If you don't do it around your mama, but you do it around everybody else, you're a faker. We're all conditioned to not talk like that in front of our parents, for the most part, right? So it's conditioning or conviction? Because I don't care to front of my mom, just because I know she ain't going for it. Right. It's conditioning. Like, you know that, especially in the black household.
Starting point is 01:40:12 Like, there's certain things you don't do here. But wait until y'all kids start doing it. Do you let your kids cuss in front of you? God damn. I mean, oh, my God, not you. What did you say? No. No, I don't.
Starting point is 01:40:22 Do you let your kids cuss in front of you? Hell no. Do you let your kids curse in front of you? No, but I have asked my 17-year-old when she was younger 16. I said, do you curse? And she was like, yes. So all of you, can I just be as your brother? Yes. You're living in a state of delusion. All right, so we're taking your calls, 800-585-105-1.
Starting point is 01:40:41 Also, you guys on the chat, you guys could chime in. What's your thoughts? What do you think? Chat, chat. No, I'm not for my kids' cussing in front of me. Well, Marley is one, but my son, he's 13, and he's at that age where, you know, I'll hear him on the game. He don't know that I hear him But my son is very respectful When it comes to cursing He does not like
Starting point is 01:40:58 He don't even like to hear me curse too much He'd be like chill my Like chill You know what I mean? Like yeah So I don't agree with that But I was also taught that Like I can't curse in front of my mother
Starting point is 01:41:07 Now me and my dad We got a different relationship He was a lot more lenient As I was a kid I was growing up I was always able to like to say Curse words and you know Things like that drink around my dad
Starting point is 01:41:17 But one side of my family Is stricter than the other side You know so when I'm around my mom I dare not do any of that I can't. My dad, we like, that's like, that's my best friend. I'm a daddy's girl. We're closer, so it's different, you know, but I don't, I don't let my kids curse in front
Starting point is 01:41:32 of me and my son don't do it anyway. He don't try to. See, I think manners is different than trust. Yes. Like you're taught manners, right? To say, yes, ma'am, yes, sir. You're taught not to curse. There's certain things that you are taught to do as a young child growing into an adulthood
Starting point is 01:41:46 that has nothing to do with trust. My kids will come up to me and if they want to curse or if they want to say something, they would like permission to curse. Maybe they heard a story or they heard somebody said that. And we'll say, yeah, say what you have to say. My kids have an amazing relationship, definitely with moms. They'll tell mom everything. Me, I'm just, I'm the, I'm the disciplinary, right?
Starting point is 01:42:08 Mom is more of the understanding. And I'm fine with that. But my kids don't curse in to this day. I do not curse in front of my mother. I will talk to my mom because it's just a level of respect. I'm sure my mother, my father wouldn't care, but it's just a level of respect. and my kids are the same way.
Starting point is 01:42:24 They're not going to curse and that has nothing to do with trust. I think it has to do with manners. What do you think, Shula? Yeah, I don't curse in front of my parents out of respect. I think I might curse in front of my pops every now and then now, you know,
Starting point is 01:42:34 but never in front of my mom. And I don't think that makes you fake. Like I told Pastor Todd, that's just conditioning, right? That's what we've been taught to do. And I think that is the respectful thing. But I also feel like we were conflating a few different convos
Starting point is 01:42:46 while we were having that conversation with Pastor Todd. I agree. Because what Pastor Todd was saying, if you punish your child over something like a curse word, then they may not bring the bigger things to you because of how you reacted over the curse word. So I guess he's essentially saying, you know, let your child curse in front of you. You know, don't trip over that because that will build more trust. I don't
Starting point is 01:43:07 know if that's necessarily the case, but I did understand what he was saying. I understand what he was trying to, you know, what he was trying to say when he was getting that. Because he did break it down later and we didn't play that part, but I still don't agree with that piece of it. It's not a brook cursing. Yeah, I don't agree. Yeah. Hello, who's this? Hi, good morning. This is Joyce. Joyce, what's your thoughts? So my thoughts is I agree with you.
Starting point is 01:43:28 I just find it crazy to think that kids can't find another way to speak without cursing. And if they have to curse to see you, that means they feel unsafe. Like, how ridiculous does that sound? It's about control and having respect for adults. My child should still be able to speak to me without cursing. Correct. And not feeling like they can't. Right. That's like, I don't even understand how those two come into comparison.
Starting point is 01:43:56 My kid can't curse so they don't feel safe. Like, that was like the episode of Black age when they had let the kid curse because he cursed in the house. But now they're going to curse it in front of you. It just, it makes no sense. They don't go together. It doesn't. Well, you know what? Whether it's cursing, kids want to feel like they can trust you.
Starting point is 01:44:16 I don't think, first of all, I don't think kids should curse in front of their parents. That's just my thing, right? It's like, I don't think kids should be calling their parents by their first name. Yes. But I do understand what Pastor Todd is saying. Kids just want to feel like they can trust you when they come to you with things. And if they know that you're going to bug out over something like a curse word, why would they come to you with something bigger than that?
Starting point is 01:44:35 But you can tell me what you have to tell me without the curse word, you know, unless you're like saying something that somebody told you or said to you, you know, you're demonstrating something. You're telling me something. And I'm like, all right, wait, what did they say? You know, but you don't have to curse to get your point across. to let me know. I agree.
Starting point is 01:44:50 It seems like he's scared to discipline your child, right? Because, oh, if you bug out when your kid curses, no, but as a child, you need to be disciplined. There's things that you do wrong that you need to be told. No, this is wrong, right? And that doesn't mean that your kid doesn't trust you. But is a curse word, one of those things? Yes, cursing is wrong. Like, if you hear your fight, and this actually happened to me, you know, the one time I've ever spanked any of my kids, my daughter was like three or four.
Starting point is 01:45:15 And it's because she said the F word. Oh, she might have been older than that. I don't know, maybe like five or six. I don't remember. But she said the F word. And after I, you know, gave her a couple of pops, I felt so stupid. And the reason I felt so stupid is because I'm like,
Starting point is 01:45:25 why am I disciplining a child for saying a word that she probably heard us say? And she's repeating. She don't even know what that word means. She's just repeating what she heard. I wouldn't have popped for that, but I would have definitely reprimanded her and told her that's an adult word and you're not allowed to say that. That's the thing.
Starting point is 01:45:40 Because, like you said, she probably heard it from you or she probably heard it from the song. She don't even know what it mean. Right, exactly. So I would have, yeah, I would have definitely reprimand her. Did you go back and you tell her like, look, you know, $1.17, and she remember that to this day. Oh, that's right. I don't even, I don't even know she really remembers it or she just does that because she knows I feel really bad about it. And we've talked about it over the years.
Starting point is 01:45:59 But it's just like, yeah, I remember when you pop me because I curse. Like, I don't believe she actually remembers, you know what I'm saying? But my point is. That can't have some money? No. Remember that time you popped up that was cursing? All right. Here you go. But my point is, I understand what Pastor Todd is saying because, you know, those little things do make kids feel like, well, if he'd pop me over that, I'm definitely not going to tell them about this It can happen
Starting point is 01:46:21 Now that can be one or two ways Because like say that same Say if that five year old was me And my father popped me for saying that It's like all right now I know That's a bad word You know what I'm saying It's all about perspective
Starting point is 01:46:33 How you look at it Because all right I know that's a bad word I know I'm gonna be able to say it Later around my friends and all that But it's a respect level That was still like You disagree with what you did After you thought about it
Starting point is 01:46:44 But that still told her That was wrong to say, I wasn't supposed to say that. You know what I'm saying? We should have just educated them. Yeah, educate for sure. Like, yo, that's not a word that you say.
Starting point is 01:46:54 Absolutely. Well, 800-585-105 when we're taking your calls. Let's discuss us, the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Call, call, call. Maybe. Just for some chemistry.
Starting point is 01:47:09 If y'all talking about it, you know we're talking about it. It's topic time. Call 800-585-105-1 to join into the discussion with the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's D.J.N.V. Just hilarious.
Starting point is 01:47:22 Shalameen the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. If he's just joining us, we're talking about Pastor Michael Todd. He was talking about, he says if your kids, if you don't curse in front of your parents, but you curse in front of your friends,
Starting point is 01:47:33 you are considered a faker. He wants the East basically saying your kids will lose trust if you reprimend them for cursing. I don't agree. Discipline. Discipline. I don't agree.
Starting point is 01:47:42 I think kids need to be disciplined. I think I needed to be disciplined as a child. You do agree. though. Because you said yourself that your kids go to your wife for things that they know you the disciplinary. They don't curse at her. They don't curse. They don't come to you with everything because they
Starting point is 01:47:56 know how you're going to react. So they rather go to mom first. Well, they have a tight relationship with mom. Because they know once they do. Because mom takes them to school every day. Mom gets them dressed every day while we're at work. So mom does a lot of the things that dad doesn't do. And they know mom is the filter. You give it to mom. Mom going to hear what you got to say. Then mom going to come
Starting point is 01:48:12 to you. Correct. Because mom know how to talk to you and you ain't going to jump off the ledge. mom then briefed you. Correct. So, I mean, I get it. Correct. But let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Shea. Hey, Jay. What's your thoughts? No, Shay. I heard you, Shea. Oh, yeah, she definitely cussed her parents. No, I actually don't know. That's how I wanted to say. Like, I would never, like, I'm 36 years old and, like, you know, I tell my parents everything, but it's just like I don't curse around, like, older folks. It's just something I don't do. Like, I don't know. I just don't feel comfortable doing it. Even if I slip up, I was like, you know. Like, oh, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:48:48 You know what I mean? It don't mean I'm hiding anything or being fake to them. I'm just respectful. Me too. I'm the same way. I'm the same exact way. And like I said, I think everything is managed.
Starting point is 01:48:58 There was a time, I think maybe about a year ago or maybe two years ago where the whole thing was brough, right? My kids would be like, bro. That was the trend. That was the trend. I don't curse around my elders. Why are you looking at me like that? I do not curse around my elders.
Starting point is 01:49:12 Okay. No way shape of form. All right. Your family or just eldest period? That was period. Yeah, I mean either. Hello, who's this? This is Mercedes from Panya.
Starting point is 01:49:21 Hey, good morning, Mama. What's your thoughts? I feel like it's okay for your child to cuss, but just don't take it overboard. Like, I want him to be his own person. I didn't necessarily, like, tell him certain words are bad and certain words are good. But if you say something and, like, the emotion, like, oh, or be like, not the F word, but pretty much everything but that, then it's okay. As long as he not doing disrespectful.
Starting point is 01:49:45 So you don't mind if your kids are at what age What age? My son is eight But like, okay, say he's playing the game He has a VR set And them kids curse way worse than he ever did And then they also be playing with grown people too Yeah, but what happened when that eight-year-old
Starting point is 01:50:00 To school and the teacher does something And he goes, what the F you're talking about? Exactly, so you don't want your kids To practice bad habits, man He knows when to say it But yeah, you're right Maybe when he gets to high school He might, but yeah, now he did
Starting point is 01:50:15 You got your kid practicing bad habits, you know what I mean? Like, that's why I said. That's why I told Pastor Todd. It's not conviction, it's conditioning. Because when you are conditioned to not talk like that in front of adults, you're not going to talk like that in front of adults. What are you going to do with a son's saying? I want him to have him to speak his mind, like, not necessarily disrespectful,
Starting point is 01:50:33 but if I'm going to speak my mind and he know, you know what I'm saying, not to say certain days to adults, but. So I'm not. And you go, Mom, why you act like a bitch? Then what are you going to say this? God, dang. That's crazy. What you're going to do?
Starting point is 01:50:47 You're going to jack his little ass up, ain't you? Hell yeah. But you just said it was all right to curse. To get his feelings out. No, it's all right to curse. It ain't all right to curse me out. She said, get her feelings out. Say that was his feeling that day.
Starting point is 01:50:59 His mom took his allowance. He said, why you're acting like a bitch? And he only got that from your, from your baby daddy, from your baby daddy. Oh, my God. That's how daddy talked to you. You know what she said. She's talking about type shit. Hey, yo.
Starting point is 01:51:12 Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye. He heard his daddy or his daddy call you out your names, and now he's repeating what daddy say. Damn. What's the ball of the story? I mean, the moral of the story is the one thing.
Starting point is 01:51:22 I think that we conflate in two different things. I don't curse in front of my parents. I don't curse in front of elders. I think that's a respect thing. But I do understand what Pastor Todd is saying. If you jump out the window and discipline your child crazy for cursing, they may not feel like they can come to you with bigger things. I get it.
Starting point is 01:51:40 Yeah, I think it's totally two different things. But anyway, we got the latest with Lauren coming up, but we're talking about Lauren. I'm going to talk about my jersey dress that I'm wearing to the thing tonight. I'm right here. Tonight I'm wearing my Delaware jersey dress to the Esse 100 with some Jordans on.
Starting point is 01:51:54 Lauren, if you wear that Delaware on this jersey dress, yo. And not even the real Jordan is the fake jersey. You got a brown. Don't you? On a red carpet in a jersey dress. Because we've seen you on red carpet before.
Starting point is 01:52:06 Yes, get your friends. All right. She acting like, we haven't seen her hours before. You had that goddamn cow skin miniskirt. That cowskin'n't ever let you live down the cowskirt. We do have a brown girl grinding jersey dress on the website. I told y'all. I told you.
Starting point is 01:52:22 That chick-fil-a-cale miniskirt was crazy. We talked a little bit about Ebony Power 100 and all the names that will be there because I will be trying to get some town bites for the show. But we also got to talk. Hold on. Can I say one more thing about that chick-fil-a miniskirt? Uh-oh. That chick-fil-lay cow-skinned miniskirt, we killed Lauren so bad about it that she turned it into some shoes.
Starting point is 01:52:40 Some boots. Yeah, she made some boots out of that. I was our Jeffrey Kim when I love those shoes. I don't care who that is. All right. We're going to talk about the latest. We're going to talk about, we got to take some time to show some love to a young bleed. He passed away after the versus.
Starting point is 01:52:56 His son just posted a video, you know, just letting people know what is actually happening and, you know, some of the things. We're going to take some time to show some love to him. All right. We'll get to that next. It's the breakfast club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ NV.
Starting point is 01:53:10 Jess Salariah. Sholomey Nagy. We are the breakfast club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren. Lauren becoming a straight fat. Tell her, man. She gets them from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details.
Starting point is 01:53:21 I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything. She'd be having the latest on it. The latest with Lauren La Rosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit everything. Well, it's the latest. On the breakfast club. Talk to me. So a No Limit Artist Young Bleed has passed away.
Starting point is 01:53:40 This according to his son. Horrible, man. Very horrible. And so a few weeks back after the verses, Master P had posted a clip of Young Bleed performing and captioned it talking about, you know, just making sure you love it on your people and how amazing it is to be able to get together with people because you just never know what will happen. And then there were reports that Young Bleed had suffered a brain aneurism. And it was up in the air whether he was alive or not. There wasn't really much details. But now his son is speaking out about what happened and confirmed that he did pass away.
Starting point is 01:54:10 Let's take a listen to Young Bleed's son, Tajee. Today we're going to be talking about my dad, Glenn Reed, Clifton, Jr., also known to the world as Younglead. As of November 1st, my dad gained his wings. My dad was 51 years old. So my dad didn't have no real health issues. Like most, as you get in age, had high blood pressure. You know, he'd take his medicines and, you know, do what he do. So not much after his huge celebration of the verses, went to an after party, and that's where everything kind of spiked.
Starting point is 01:54:41 Once he collapsed, he did pass from the aneurysm, the bleed to the brain. I do want to thank God for the strength to be able to sit here and had his conversation because I couldn't barely even talk a couple days ago and throughout this week just kind of been in the bed thinking, you know, I still don't know how to take this. It's still so unreal. You know, love that guy. Everything that's me is him. He taught me everything. He always poured so much life into me.
Starting point is 01:55:05 I'm going to make sure his legacy stays alive. Man, 51 years old. That's not bad to piece of young bleed So they don't know how that happens Yeah so he said in this video That he's actually going to do some more research On like brain aneurysms But they're not for sure kind of what like triggered it
Starting point is 01:55:25 Like that type of thing But he did also to mention that You know like there have been a lot of people That have been trying to report things And just have conversations about what was happening But young bleed was actually fighting for his life for some time And the family wanted to give him the time to do that before they just, you know, you know, gave up on it
Starting point is 01:55:43 because he was finding for his own life and people were kind of jumping to conclusions. So he says he's telling us all he knows right now and the only reason he says that he's addressing it is because Youngbleed's mother, who is his grandmother and their family are going through so much and people keep reaching out to them trying to figure out things and have questions.
Starting point is 01:55:58 And it's just really difficult. So he's saying he wants to be the sole point of contact. He wants to clear up as much as he can. And he told us all that he could. But no, they don't know exactly what caused what. I tell you what, though. This is why celebrating people are so. important giving people their flowers is so important I'm happy that he got the
Starting point is 01:56:14 opportunity to perform at versus you know with the no limit team and do how you do that deck I remember you know 1998 going to get my balls in my word you know CD that's when anything that dropped from no limit on Tuesday you were going to store and go get and how you do that there was a tough tough tune it was I definitely remember going to buy young bleed my balls in my work rest and peace but it's like you said it's very scary because he performed that versus he everything was great and then you know go to the club and then all of a sudden something happens there's not planned and nobody knew he wasn't sick
Starting point is 01:56:42 he was in good health that you know this life is so short and so precious yeah yeah he mentioned blood pressure um at one point too but I think they're still trying to figure out because he said you know my dad wasn't a person that like had to go to doctors a lot you know and all the things so they're still trying to figure that out now we do have the audio of young bleed
Starting point is 01:56:58 at versus um wow yeah things happen fast man so fast um so yeah sending them some love and he did mention that there is um a website I have a go fund me that they're using and it's an official one that will now go toward, you know, all the arrangements and different things that they're going to make.
Starting point is 01:57:17 And he wants people to make sure that unless it's something that he's putting out there, you don't support it because it's just a lot going on. So I wanted to mention that too. Yeah, rest in peace to him. Rest in peace. Very, very, very sad. So switching gears a bit,
Starting point is 01:57:34 real quick, update, bringing it back to New York. Diddy. Remember I told you guys that Diddy, team was asking the judge could they speed up the conversations that they're going to be having about him trying to get the appeal so a judge said yes to you know that expedited process and again the prosecutors didn't push up on it and say hey we don't want this to be sped up we want to keep the original dates and i think it's because they're confident that he might not win the appeal um yesterday
Starting point is 01:58:00 there were more photos that dropped or of diddy um on the yard from the same day but this time he's with uh sebastian telfar um the NBA player and i reached out to Dittie's team and was trying to figure out, like I told y'all, like, how do y'all feel at this point? Because y'all were talking so much about high risk and security and there's photos everywhere. And they told me at this point, all they can do is focus on the appeal. But I found out from another source that those photos were trying to figure out where they were coming from. From what I'm told, those photos are coming from a person. Like, you can literally walk by the gate at this facility.
Starting point is 01:58:31 And if they're in the yard, you can take pictures. So I'm told that they, that there's belief that this comes from just a person that happened to be there and see things. And be able to grab these different shots that they then told to different outlets. So, yeah. Just curious, how much would, like, a TMZ pay for a picture like that? I'm just curious what it would be worth. You know what's crazy. People think that it's a ton of money.
Starting point is 01:58:55 I've seen people get as low as $250 and as much as, like, $15,000. I think for something like this, the first set of photos, because it's the first time the world can see Diddy, I think they got a couple thousand for sure. What's a $15,000 photo, Lauren? Harvey made you sign a NDA for life There are NDAs And I worked on the story So I wouldn't talk about it
Starting point is 01:59:15 But it was a video And it was a big story In relation to an artist Hmm Who was it? Yo Harvey just muted her, yo The same way I don't want to tell people
Starting point is 01:59:26 That that that's, you know Would that hat really say You got us doing Photoshop You think people can't read? It's Photoshop This is all AI You didn't change With the hat really say
Starting point is 01:59:37 We know them I'll keep back in like you got one boyfriend then. Oh, my. I'll keep your secret safe for me here. Even though I got two videos that ain't AI. This is way before so-worlds. Y'all right-happed people. Y'all like to twist words. Hey, hello.
Starting point is 01:59:49 Can't twit these videos I got. Speaking of prison, who else came home, Shorty? Blueface. They're okay. There we go. There we go. Blue-face, baby. Already with Kishan, I've seen that.
Starting point is 02:00:00 Are they back? With his son. I don't know feedback in a relationship, but not. Listen, so he was on a stream with DDG, right? They were on stream like all night. doing music and Chris Sean popped up on the stream it literally gave that they still or they got a little something going on but I thought
Starting point is 02:00:13 she had just had another boo so a bit confused I know yesterday too he um he was like with his kids and took his kids out and because Sean was there and the other baby mom was upset so that whole saga is continuing now oh you're talking about the Lison girl the one who was doing music before
Starting point is 02:00:29 damn I forgot her name I ain't seeing the world the one they kept saying it looked like Stewie don't don't do that yeah yeah but she's so cute she is cute Yeah, that looked like Stewie. That's what they were saying. The other baby mom. I forgot a damn name, yo.
Starting point is 02:00:43 She actually a cutie. Yeah, believe her name is Jade, right? Jaden. Jaden, Alexis. That's the name. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. But, yeah, we have, so he is home.
Starting point is 02:00:53 It was like his mom was posting leading up to it, and then he posted a video himself to let us know he was home. But we have some audio of him from the stream. Let's take a listen to a listen to Blueface because he's making music now, but he's saying that he had lost all motivation for music. Let's take a listen. You know, it was crazy, man. Everybody in there like, man, you been writing?
Starting point is 02:01:09 I ain't wrote shit. You been freestyling that? Like, no rapping in there, yeah. That shit took, like, all my mental capacity, you know? I ain't had no motivation. Like, you know, my music is like, oh, party shit. I don't rock about Jill and, you know? So it was like, it wasn't really my type of river.
