Black History Month? Or the Chinese New Year? Which one is it?
I think it's around Chinese New Year. Okay.
So we got our first guest host.
I'm sure you know him. You've seen
him on a million things. You've seen him on
Wild N' Out. You've seen him on
well, he owns his own platform
called Hollywood Unlocked. Correct.
You've seen him on, you know, Lovinglocked. You've seen him on Love & Hip Hop.
You've seen him at every single party all across the world.
He has his own show right now.
That's right.
It's called...
His only night show.
What's it called?
The Jason Lee Show.
I was going to say that, but Jason Lee is here.
Jason Lee, ladies and gentlemen.
It always sounds crazy when you introduce people who have their own show and the show is named after them.
Right.
You got to say, from the Jason Lee Show, Jason Lee.
Drop on a clues bomb for Jason Lee, man.
Good morning, brother.
How you feeling?
Man, first of all, put some respect on the Breakfast Club.
Yeah, this is early as hell.
And I got a bunch of rules in front of me.
I'm going to try not to break them.
Is there like a mute button or like a don't?
No, I do have a don't.
You see that don't?
They put that there, well, usually for Charlemagne, but it'll be for you, too.
I've never seen any of those rules ever in my life, Jason.
Ever. Well, I know you broke every single one of'll be for you, too. I've never seen any of those rules ever in my life, Jason.
Ever.
Well, I know you broke every single one of them. Every single one of them.
Absolutely, he's broke every single one of those rules.
And Jason is still dressed like he's going to somebody's red carpet right now.
Okay, getting dressed this morning was a whole situation,
because I had a different outfit on, but I was like,
yo, I don't, yeah, tomorrow I will definitely be dressed differently.
Well, the cameras are on.
Don't get it twisted.
The cameras are on.
The studio is lit.
Yeah, new studio. This is our first week The studio is lit. Yeah, new studio.
This is our first week in a new studio.
We got new cameras.
Everything is digital now.
It's different.
I got to bring you all like a gay flag or something,
because I know you usually have gay toys around Charlamagne.
No, we had the gay flag in the old studio,
but what I want to happen in this studio is like all of that stuff that we collected
and just accumulated over time.
So I don't even know where that stuff is at now.
Yeah.
We tossed a lot of that stuff that we collected and just accumulated over time so i don't even know where that stuff is at now yeah we tossed a lot of that old stuff out so yeah like you said we'll accumulate some more stuff and make the studio new and ours again you know and today we don't need the gay
flag we got jason lee yeah i'm gay all of it i said yo uh yo i ran into envy at the white house
we missed you oh i chose not i chose not to go to that party i told you that yeah you did
he doesn't go anywhere with large crowds yeah i mean not even just it's not even just the large Oh, I chose not to go to that party. I told you that. Yeah, you did. I was going to go to that party.
He doesn't go anywhere with large crowds.
It's not even just the large crowds.
I just didn't want to be in that vicinity because when you then critique them,
then they act like, why are you critiquing us?
We invited you to the White House.
Oh, I got an email proof of that last night.
Yeah, they're not happy.
When you tell them the truth, that's all we're here to do.
They don't like it.
So, yeah, my response to them was probably not happy.
They didn't make it happy.
What were they upset with you about?
What you do now?
They want to have a lunch with the vice president, which I said I'm down with.
But then it became, oh, well, let's do it in February.
I'm not only meeting y'all when it's Black History Month.
What the hell?
I'm not that guy.
That was the other thing, too.
Because when they invited us, I had other partners that told me love well i'm going on
to this one on thursday and i'm like on thursday and somebody's like well i'm going to this one on
saturday so i'm like hold on it's a bunch of different parties i got bamboozled yeah because
when i got invited i thought it was the holiday party where i would see mary j blige perform
that was the jingle jangle party that's what that was yeah that first of all, Envy was so late to get down and take...
Did you get a photo with the president?
Nope.
He was late to get his photo.
Man, I wouldn't want no picture with Joe Biden anyway, though.
Well, they put me next to a bunch of white people.
I was trying to edit myself out, but I just feel like the photo in the background would be warped.
So I just...
They had white people at the Black Media Party?
Well, on this side, it was like Shade Room, Revolt.
On this side, it was Hollywood Unlocked
and a bunch of white people
so yeah
wow
it wasn't a black media night
it was just media night
and all the black people
stayed with each other
I thought it was black media night
nah nah nah
it's just all the black people
stayed on one section
y'all segregated the white house
felt like old time
didn't invite me
I walked around the white house
I walked around the white house
asking all the white people
were you in the crown?
they were like, no.
We'll never get another invite.
But all right, well, let's get the show cracking.
Malcolm Jamal Warner will be joining us this morning.
Legendary Malcolm Jamal Warner.
I mean, you know, he's in a new Fox show called Accused.
Accused.
But you know Malcolm Jamal Warner.
Theo!
Theo from the Cosby Show. Yes.
Malcolm and Eddie.
And found out a bunch of other shows that I didn't even know was on.
Yes.
So we'll kick it with him in a little bit.
Let's get the show cracking.
Of course, we got front page news.
Speaking of Joe Biden, they found some more classified documents.
The hypocrisy surrounding this story is nuts, but we'll discuss.
We'll tell you about all that.
And now let's get into some new music.
This is Moneybagg Yo Glorilla.
What you on?
Moneybagg Yo.
Hey.
Glorilla.
On what you on?
Who reckoned it that?
That's Glorilla?
Moneybagg Yo.
Moneybagg Yo.
I was about to say, drop on the clues box for Glorilla because she's three for three.
That's hot.
And regardless of the record she presented to the radio.
But either way.
Yo, she killing it.
Man.
Drop on the clues box for Memphis.
Lord have mercy.
Well, morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God.
Jason Lee is our celebrity guest today.
And let's get in some front page news.
Now, Buffalo Bills safety, safety demar hamlin has been
discharged from the hospital nine days after he collapsed during a game now doctors say we've
completed a series of tests and evaluations and we spoke with the team physicians and we are
confident that demar well demar hamlin can be safely discharged to continue his rehab at his
crib so when they say rehab rehab for what rehabhab just to get back to his regular everyday life?
Or rehab to get back to football?
No, they haven't mentioned football.
I guess to get back to regular life.
I'm sure football is secondary in his life.
Which is the most important thing, right?
You just want to be able to live.
Yeah.
This is why I never played sports.
Well, then I was gay.
Gay people can play sports.
No, they can't.
I mean, I guess they can.
I mean, they can.
They just can't stay in the game professionally because they don't want us in there.
I'm sure you know a lot of athletes that are gay.
Absolutely.
Even if they're not openly.
Yeah, well, they don't slide back.
I tell you, I have a problem.
They don't want to be on Hollywood Unlocked like I would ever do that.
But, yeah, nah.
Oh, they think if you try to holler at them in the DMs, then you're going to put them over.
Oh, my God.
Now, yesterday, there was a lot of planes that were grounded.
FAA was trying to figure out what happened yesterday.
The system went down.
And Pete Buttigieg spoke about it.
What people need to know is that FAA will always act to make sure that passengers are safe.
And part of what you saw this morning was an act of caution to be sure until it was 100% airtight that the system was working properly, even just
for delivering messages, that we had that ground stop. But I do think that broader question is a
real one. What are the redundancies? What are the backups? What are the means to make sure
that a disruption like this does not happen? Because what you saw this morning was something
we haven't seen in a very long time.
And we need to design in a field that's changing a lot and is going to be changing a lot more in the years to come.
But we need to design a system that does not have those kind of vulnerabilities.
OK, Pete, stop acting like you don't know what happened. OK, that was a cyber attack.
I think so. Somebody tapped the jaw of the U.S. just to let us know.
Yeah. To the point where they grounded the planes. I mean, I was on a flight the other day.
I'm already nervous, but now
I'm really nervous to go home.
That doesn't just happen. The FAA system
doesn't just crash. If I read
yesterday correctly, they said that hasn't happened since
9-11. 9-11, yeah. So I know they're not
going to tell us the truth, just like they won't tell us the truth about
extraterrestrials existing, but somebody tapped the
U.S.'s jaw yesterday. I don't know if it was China,
Russia. Somebody tapped the jaw a little bit.
Now, lastly, I don't know if you remember, Joe Biden was on 60 Minutes and he was talking about...
Does Joe Biden remember being on 60 Minutes?
No, he doesn't.
But he was on 60 Minutes and he was talking about classified documents they found from Donald Trump.
When you saw the photograph of the top secret documents laid out on the floor at Mar-a-Lago,
what did you think to yourself looking at that image how that could possibly happen okay how one anyone could be that
irresponsible okay and i thought what data was in there that may compromise sources and methods
that's what we by that i mean names of people who helped or etc and it's just uh totally
irresponsible yeah i agree that's why you're
getting donkey in a day today the second batch of classified documents have been found at biden's
office a second batch a second batch now this is not the original office this is another place they
found the second batch the hypocrisy surrounding this story is nuts now they're saying it's not
the documents that are that are the problem it's the it's the uh the obstruction that was the
problem like they say trump obstructed justice by not
turning the documents over when they asked.
And I knew that was part of it with Trump,
but I also thought the documents were the actual
issue because folks said they didn't know what was in the
documents. Could be nuclear codes or
could be Trump selling classified information
to foreign entities. But with Biden, folks are like,
oh, well, classified info slips up all
the time. It's the obstruction. That's the
difference. I mean, a lot of people take paperwork home from, I mean, I'm probably going to take some of these papers home with me tonight.
You're not classified.
I mean, the president, Trump has done everything.
He put Spider-Man all over the Capitol over there.
All the white people climbing up the building.
Ain't nobody been to jail yet.
No, people got locked up for that.
They ain't in prison.
They're not in prison.
Well, no, I think some of them got prison time.
One or two of them.
Well, they haven't been labeled terrorists. We know there's different rules for those people over there and they're definitely domestic terrorists but i just don't like the double standard that
exists because they literally are saying now it's the obstruction that's the difference not the
actual classified documents but i all they told us over and over with trump was no we don't know
what's in those documents you just heard the president say that what could be in that information
now it's classified info
slips up all the time. I hate the double standard
that exists. And I watched MSNBC
and CNN last night, and the coverage
of that story was very, very
minimal. I didn't see them talk about
Biden on CNN until like 10 o'clock
at night. I was sleeping by then.
It's unbelievable. Alright, well that
is your front page news. Get it off your
chest. 800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open.
Again, 800-585-1051.

What's your name, bro?
Rumble Jesus from Detroit.
Rumble.
Oh, boy.
You're a poet?
Yes.
All right.
You got some poetry for us this morning?
Goodness gracious.
Sure.
Go ahead.
Before I was on this earth, I was wrong.
Went from being a myth to born a legend.
The funny thing is, Pops made me a high-level peasant.
He wasn't even present.
A deadbeat.
Barely even spoke to me until I was dead meat.
Three days later, I was on my feet.
I got up out of there.
Went to see my peeps.
Told them I was out of here. Time
lapsed over 2,000
years. Now I'm doing poetry
in front of descendants of those who
murdered me. But I'm not my dad.
I won't hold you accountable
for something you didn't ask for. That's
how you cause a domino effect.
Alright. What else do you do, bro?
Jason Lee, do you
have any thoughts?
That cadence just put me to sleep.
I can't.
And Jason's already kind of sleepy.
Because he's not used to being up this morning.
So you're supposed to come up here and give him something to pep him up.
Okay?
I mean, he could never survive in Wild Style.
Well, Malcolm Jamal Warner's coming later.
Yes.
And he does poetry a little better than you, bro.
Okay.
You don't have any other goals for the new year?
What else you doing?
Well, I do podcasting as well.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
What else?
What else do you do?
How you make money?
I got a regular nine to five.
There you go.
There you go.
Stick with that, man.
Stick with that.
What is it?
Merchandising.
There you go.
That's Amazon, FedEx.
I ain't mad at that, bro. Stick with that, man. Stick with that. What is it? Merchandising. There you go. That's Amazon, FedEx. I ain't mad at that, bro.
Huh?
Stick with the merchandising.
Great benefits.
It's a high benefit.
Oh, okay.
Well, have a good one, bro.
Yeah, keep growing.
You're going to grow in that company.
I believe in you.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need the vent, hit us up now.
And Jason Lee, he's our celebrity guest host this morning, so don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
It seems like it's going to fall.
It's going to fall.
And if it falls, what are we going to do?
Yeah, not yet.
How are we going to get goods and services?
It's going to be hard getting goods and services.
It's already taken a long time to get goods and services.
Yeah, nobody's going to be doing work for free out here.
They're trying to box you guys out anyway because they're trying to create electric
trucks, electric 18-wheelers that they won't actually need drivers.
So, I mean, that's going to be real tough on your industry.
Let me ask you something.
Do you trust a truck going down the road 80,000 pounds with no driver in it?
I don't.
I don't.
But if you see what they're doing on the bridges and tolls, you know, I mean, there's no more people there anymore.
Now it's all electric.
So all those people lost their jobs.
If you look at what they're doing in the trains and the buses,
a lot of those people have lost their jobs.
So it's going to be real difficult out there.
Robots take it over.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
Hey, Envy, I got an idea for you, though.
I know you're still doing the car show stuff, right?
Yes, sir.
All right.
I know.
I got a crazy idea. Not a crazy idea. All right. Well, sir. All right, I know. I got a crazy idea.
Not a crazy idea.
All right, well, stay on hold.
Stay on hold, everybody.
Why would you tell the world that idea, bro?
You ain't even trademarked it or nothing yet, I'm sure.
Just stay on hold.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, good morning.
This is Stevie Steve from Delaware.
Comedian.
Stevie Steve.
Delaware.
Comedian.
What's up?
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year, bro.
I'm sitting in my parking lot. I think I got to go to work comedian. What's up? Happy New Year. Happy New Year, bro.

You're already there, bro.
You might as well just go in.
You're already there.
I know, man.
It's hard.
There's a lot of diseases
floating around.

COVID, the flu, RSV.
But if you're sitting in the parking lot, you shouldn't be calling on a radio show.
Y'all let me co-host.
I'm going to save my good life when I come home and co-host with y'all.
Oh, my goodness.
There was actually a podcaster poet who just called in.
I think y'all should team up.
Yeah, y'all should get together and do something together.
We could give up.
Call it parking lot podcasting, a parking lot poetry, something.
Something with parking lot poetry.
I'm trying to be on anybody, comedian friends uh comedy shows hit me up ah they hit you up bro

Absolutely.
Some of them are on Wild N' Out, but they make it to the first episode and then Nick sends them home.
Jason Lee is our guest host this morning.
He's going to be handling all the rumors.
When we got rumors on the way, what are we talking about?
They say Gunn is out here, the new 6ix9ine in these streets.
He's defending himself.
He's talking all hot.
What?
Why this disparage of cancel culture when it comes to snitching?
Gun is the new 6ix9ine, and I got that coming up.
Whoa.
All right.
Jason Lee, ladies and gentlemen.
Rumors on the way.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired?
Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary?
Consider this. Start your own

surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am
King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme
Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition.
The Waikana tribe own country.
My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a racket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams.
I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.
For self-preservation and protection. It was literally
that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment
of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of
love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.

Morning everybody
It's DJ Envy
Charlamagne the guy
We are the breakfast club
DJ Envy
Can you do something
For me
Why did Drake want 21 Savage to do so much for him, man?
He want 21 to get at his ops.
He want 21 to get at his exes.
Jesus Christ.
All that for a collaboration album?
Drake not trying to mess up that visa.
You're right.
I've been suspicious.
He ain't stupid.
That's exactly what it is.
Well, our guest host for today is Jason Lee.
And we got rumors on the way, but we talking about Jason.
Listen, we going to talk about Gunna snitching in a minute.
But before that, what?
Why does everybody get so uncomfortable when I say that?
You're coming in so hot.
Well, listen, it's early.
I got to wake myself up.
But no, there's this non-funny comedian named Gerard Carmichael.
I have not watched the Carmichael show.
I don't care about what I watch.
Carmichael show was great.
Well, I'm sure it was.
But what wasn't great was...
Wait, hold on, hold on.
Go ahead, go.
Room I had sit my room i had
to call out a name or you gossiping this is the rumor report i mean i guess we on the breakfast
club this is where the tea spills right yes on the breakfast club all right go what was the rumor
report but this is jason lee with the tea get into this so gerard carmichael he hosted the golden
globes the other day and it was really black everybody all black excellence was in the house
getting uh honor but he was not honoring an icon who actually died there so the whitney houston to the Golden Globes the other day. And it was really black. Everybody, all black excellence was in the house getting honored.
But he was not honoring an icon who actually died there.
So the Whitney Houston estate is now sounding off
because at the Golden Globes, he gave a joke that wasn't really that funny.
And this is what he said.
We are pressed for time, but they wanted me to shout out the venue that we're in.
So we are here live from the hotel that killed Whitney Houston the Beverly Hilton
You guys so that's very exciting just ridiculous
Yeah, Gerard my guy, but that joke didn't make much sense because the hotel didn't kill Whitney Houston
Like what Whitney was doing in the hotel?
Unfortunately, you know killed Whitney. It's a corny joke, but this is a crazy part in 2012
We had that party with Whitney the day before she passed away this year we held our award show the hollywood
unlock impact awards at that same hotel so we actually did that in honor of you know just the
memory and relationship we have with you so it was uh so the pat houston this is the family spokesperson
she's she's speaking out and she called the joke disappointing and she went on to say that this
the whitney houston estate uh is disappointed in the joke and felt it was in poor taste yeah maybe he would have said maybe he would have just
said this is the hotel where whitney houston you know passed away just mentioned it would have made
more sense but i didn't get the whole because she's an icon she's a legend yes well he's gay
right yes he is yeah the entire lgbtq community is pissed i'm here to speak on behalf of all of
them so all gays everywhere.
Oh, because Whitney
is a gay icon.
I mean, she's an icon, period.
She's an icon, period.
But we honor her.
And it's interesting
because yesterday
I actually spoke to Monica.
And Monica,
when we were in the conversation
about something else,
brought back that day
that she was with her
the day before she died.
And she was just talking
about how important
Whitney was.
This is before I even
heard about this story.
You were with Whitney
the day before she died too, right?
Partying with her, yeah.
Wow.
She's walking through the club.
She was dragging Ray J through the club like a side chick.
Wow.
Damn it, man.
Well, shout out to Ray J.
Shout out to Ray J.
Yeah.
Want to keep going?
Yeah, keep going.
Okay, well, listen.
We're going to go back and talk about this snitch now.
I don't know why.
Man, Chase Lee.
Why are black people everywhere upset or shocked when I say this?
Because when 6ix9ine did it, nobody said anything.
I just don't know if Gunna was snitching.
I don't know.
I personally don't know.
Okay, well, he's back on social media saying that he wasn't snitching.
Apparently, this is all coming down after he copped this plea in the YSL Rico case,
but fans are not here for it.
So recently, the rapper pled guilty to a racketeering conspiracy charge.
He was released from jail.
Now, all the people I know from the hood, they go to jail.
I mean, yes, we got away on the paperwork,
but we ain't seen the paperwork.
But what we have heard is the audio
of him in the courtroom.
And this is what he said.
I became affiliated with YSL around 2016.
Is that true as it pertains to you, Mr. Kitchens?
Yes, ma'am.
YSL is a music label and a game.
And you have personal knowledge that members or associates of YSL have committed crimes in burdens of the gang.
Yes, ma'am. You were present when law enforcement officers stopped a vehicle in which you were present along with Jeffrey Williams, wherein hydrocodone, methamphetamines, and a firearm were recovered.
These items did not belong to you.
Yes, ma'am.
And do you acknowledge the following statement?
I recognize, accept, and deeply regret that my talent and music indirectly furthered YSL the game to the detriment of my community.
YSL as a game must end.
Is that your statement or acknowledgement?
Yes. Very polite. That's what i took from it okay okay okay at this point takashi 69 can open up for drake if that's what
we're gonna say because gun and to me gun and 69 are literally the same person i will say this okay
i don't know what the conversations between thug and Gunna was. Now, if Thug knew this and it was clear and this was okay, then I get it.
But if Thug had no idea and he was railroading and had no idea what was going on and they're using this against him, then absolutely positively.
Here's the thing.
I have no idea if he's snitching.
And I honestly don't care because I'm not in the street.
And I don't understand why anyone who's not in the street or never been in the street cares.
Even with 6ix9ine, I never cared that 6ix9ine was sn's six nine i expected six nine to snitch what i always told you that one coming
what i always told him was if you don't change your lifestyle you end up in jail today like
you're gonna crash and burn well i only care because everybody's business is my actual business
but but he you know gunna went on to say ninjas are acting like uh they switching to a side but
it's only one side hashtag why i sell the label. Why he didn't put hashtag
YSL the gang? That's what he said it was in the courtroom.
I mean, this is what I'm saying. Keep the same energy.
When you in them court streets and you get on these
other streets, keep that same energy.
But isn't acknowledging YSL as a gang also
acknowledging that he was indeed in a gang?
So my whole thing is, I guess, the difference between him
and not even just
people say 6ix9ine, but just the other people at YSL.
The other people at YSL actually pointed at somebody. Well9ine but just the other people at YSL the other people at YSL actually pointed at somebody
well
the other people at YSL
that pointed and said
yeah
such and such did this
I didn't see who
gonna point at that
who gonna point at
the whole fight
with Kevin Lyles
and everybody in the industry
was saying that YSL
was a record label
and not a gang
and this was a label
that employed young
brothers and sisters
and helped the community
that's what they were saying
so with him saying
it's a gang, it kind of
proved the point of the prosecutor.
That's called snitching!
I don't care. But I think we should wait
on Thug. When Thug
says, hey, these people turned on me,
then we can, people can
officially label them. Well, let me just be very
clear. I know two Ricos.
The one that he got arrested for and my assistant.
And I promise you, if you play on my social media
I will call the FBI because I'm not in the gang
I will snitch on your ass
that's my whole point I be seeing people on social media
I get that's the running joke on social media
not a clown gunner but I'm like
why do you care you not in the street
you ain't never been in the street
I don't think we should care care but I definitely think
we should keep that same energy I think it was easy
for people to say it about 6ix i i everything i see i just heard that i mean to me i don't know
i just always say like even when it comes down to gay stuff what would my brothers do my brothers
wouldn't do the things i do yeah my brothers wouldn't snitch so that was snitching i think
we should encourage more crime prevention shout out to ti oh my god god damn he just came up here
with the chapel folks they told me to wake up i'm awake all right you're good now let me just T.I. Whoa, my God. Gee, God damn. Jason, he just came up here with a chopper. Just bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop.
Folks, they told me to wake up.
I'm awake.
All right, you're good.
Now, let me just ask one last question.
You told me to wake up.
I'm awake.
Is Doug still following Gunna on IG?
I mean, he in jail.
He ain't got no phone.
How you going to unfollow him?
Wait till he get out.
Let's see when he get out, what happen.
If you get out and it's unfollowed, we know what it is.
All right.
Well, that is Jason Lee.
That is the most 2023 thing to say.
How do you know if Gunner's snitching on Thug?
Is Thug still following him on Instagram?
That's the gauge now?
Oh, man.
Jesus.
Well, that is Jason Lee with the T.
All right.
When we come back, we got to talk about cannabis.
Well, it's more like DUI and how you can be pulled over for it.
We'll explain.
Don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.

What song is this?
Weekend.
Oh, I've heard better weekend songs.
Well, Timmy just did this like two months ago.
I like this song.
I feel like when you're
driving in the car
and the windshield wipers
are going but it's not raining.
You know what I mean?
It's a little dreary.
Yeah.
It's a little dreary.
Bro, Timmy just did it
over like two, three months ago.
Well, whose song
was that originally?
That's Fugees.
The Fugees.
Who?
I don't want it.
Oh, Mario Wines.
Mario Wines.
Yeah, he said the Fugees.
That's not the Fugees. That's not the Fugees.
That is Mario Wines.
Yeah, that's Mario Wines.
Then he sampled
from the Fugees though.
He sampled the beat
but that's Mario Wines.
As soon as you said Fugees
all I heard was
Ready or Not
and could not line it up.
That was Ready or Not.
That's what it sounds like.
It's like a chopped
and screwed version
of Mario Wines.
That's what it sounds like.
It's like a lightly
chopped and screwed
version of Mario Wines.
Why we didn't play
Glorilla and Moneybag Yo right there? Alright there all right anyway let's get some front page music
what it's because it's radio don't care about music no more i still do sir well our guest host
today is jason lee all right now let's talk about buffalo bills yeah because he got the chop out
this morning demar hamlin he has been discharged from the hospital nine days after he collapsed during a game from cardiac arrest.
Doctors say we completed a series of tests and evaluations.
And after speaking with the team, he was okay to let go.
He can be at the crib to rehab and to relax at the house.
Now, also yesterday, we know 10,000 flights have been delayed yesterday because of an FFA computer going down.
Well, they spoke about it. Pete Buttigieg had something to say about it.
What people need to know is that FAA will always act to make sure that passengers are safe.
And part of what you saw this morning was an act of caution to be sure until it was 100 percent airtight that the system was working properly,
even just for delivering
messages, that we had that ground stop. But I do think that broader question is a real one.
What are the redundancies? What are the backups? What are the means to make sure
that a disruption like this does not happen? Because what you saw this morning was something
we haven't seen in a very long time and we need to design in in a field
that's changing a lot and is going to be changing a lot more in the years to come but we need to
design a system that does not have those kind of vulnerabilities stop pete what people need to know
is what actually happened that was a cyber attack okay i don't care what nobody say don't act like
that was something normal normal 10 000 flights that's what i'm saying faa systems just don't go
down somebody tapped the jaw to us systems just don't go down somebody
tapped the jaw to us yesterday i don't know if it was the chinese or the russians but somebody did
okay why do you think that uh we can't handle the truth because we can't everyone people be scared
now we 10 000 flights go down on the same day after 9 11 i'm taking amtrak to new york everybody's
going to get toilet paper everybody's going to get paper towels we already indulge in mad
conspiracy theories anyway if you go on social media everybody's right hit paper towels we already indulge in mad conspiracy theories
anyway if you go on social media everybody's got these wild conspiracy theories just about all
types of stuff so you might as well just tell us the truth and the truth can't be wider than
these conspiracy theories but the scary thing i don't know if you've seen pelosi in the house on
hbo max when they were actually filming her for a documentary when the insurgents happened
it's kind of scary how they weren't even prepared to handle that. I'm sure they're not.
But how would we handle, you know what I mean,
10,000 flights in the air at the same time?
I mean, I don't know.
Just tell us the truth.
Everything can't be a prepared statement.
You know what I mean?
Like, just tell us the truth.
Like, especially in this day and age of social media where, like, breaking news happens all the time.
Like, I'm pretty sure the American public could handle.
I don't think so.
It would cripple the country.
Because what will people do?
They're going to run to the grocery stores and buy out the groceries.
They're going to run to the bank.
We do that anyway.
Remember when we ran out and bought all the toilet paper?
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
Well, that's what they're nervous about.
They're going to run to the bank.
You're going to take out all your money at the bank, which is going to hurt the stock
market and Wall Street.
And that's what they don't want.
So you're saying it's going to be chaos and outrage and irrational things happening.
Correct. The airline industry is barely getting back to normal after covid i mean you think if they were to say
that cyber attack happened and you know yeah nobody would want to get on the plane i wouldn't
i know one thing wouldn't nothing stop in florida wouldn't nothing stop in texas
wouldn't nothing stop in georgia i promise you whatever it is that we'll get over it now lastly
you know weed is being legalized in so many
different states. So now, police are trying
to come up with ways to find out if drivers
are driving high. So they're
trying to figure out a test, how they can test people,
how they can check if it's
bringing a dog to smell or if it's bringing
somebody else to see if they could actually do
a pee test or whatever. Pull up with
snacks, cops. Pull up with snacks.
And if immediately I take that snack out your hand,
I just ask for a bite, I might have the munchies.
It's possible. But is driving high a bad
thing? I mean, high on weed.
Well, under the influence, yes.
I know you live in LA.
I've never known anybody to crash
from being high on marijuana.
Well, let's say
your reflex is a lot slower.
Usually you drive slower yeah so i want
to drive my driving would blow my high i couldn't even i don't when i get high i like to just sit
on the couch and do nothing yeah i can't smoke weed i don't even like to talk when i'm high so
why would i want to drive high all right well that is your front page news now when we come back

You ain't asked the most important question.

Have you played the Mega Millions?
That's the most important question. I thought you were going to say how you feeling, how you doing asked the most important question. What? Have you played the Mega Millions? That's the most important question?
I thought you were going to say how you feeling, how you doing, how you holding up.
Happy New Year.

So about Billy.
1.3 billion.
Okay.
I did one, I don't know, the last one was in the Billions a couple months ago.
Yep.
How'd you do?
Well, I thought I was doing good.
I went in there, I was like, yo, give me, uh, uh.
So, my wife has numbers that are, like, her lucky numbers.
So, when the numbers get real big, she wants to play those numbers.
Correct.
And there's, like, three.
So, I took hers, and I was like, you know what?
Play these.
And I was like, I'm going to splurge.
Give me three more.
You know, I think I'm doing good.
And this cat next to me in the next lane, he was like, give me 200 like that so I'm not you know I'm I didn't win I don't have my
own breakfast club so clearly I didn't win $2 $8 $10 nothing so you didn't do
good no no I might go back in, though.
I mean, if it's in the billions again.
It's a billy right now.
Now, you're from Jersey City.
Now, for most people that don't know, how did you get your start in show business?
Because we heard that you were a rapper at first.
You were in a rap group.
Almost signed by Def Jam at the time.
Any truth to that?
That was after Cosby, though, right?
Yeah, that was after Cosby.
That was after Cosby.
So how did you get your start with show business? I was after Cosby though right? yeah that was after Cosby that was after Cosby so how did you get your start
with show business?
I was
doing
basically community theater
my mother was
always looking for me
to
looking for things
for me to do
outside of
going to school
and coming home
and hanging out
so like I played basketball
and that wasn't my thing
I thought I was going to be
a basketball player
and then one season,
one year basketball season was over,
my mother's friend suggested this community theater
and asked me if I wanted to go.
So I went down, auditioned, got in
and found myself doing theater
and just absolutely loved it.
So like at nine years old,
I was like, oh, this is what I want to do
and what it was, it was really,
it was the first curtain call.
Like, the first play I did was called Alice, Is That You?
And it was basically a takeoff of The Wiz.
Like, Dorothy gets to Oz, and everybody thinks she's Alice from Alice in Wonderland.
Right?
And I played the Tin Man.
And I just remember the first opening night coming out for curtain call.
Coming out and people clapping and standing up.
And I'm like nine years old, and I'm like, yo, I can get into this.
People stand up and clap for you.
Yeah, I like this.
How did you book Cosby?
What was that process like?
That's funny.
So when my agent first submitted me, they were looking for a 6'2", 15-year-old.
Jesus Christ.
They was all getting ready for the NBA. It was clear. Well, because Ennis was 15 and was 6'2", 15-year-old. Jesus Christ. They was all getting ready for the NBA.
It was clear.
Well, because Ennis was 15 and was 6'2".
Who was Ennis?
Mr. Cosby's son.
Oh, okay.
Got you, got you, got you.
So in the original script,
there was this running joke,
like Theo would get in trouble or something
and Cliff would be like,
Theo, stand up.
And Theo stands up
and he's towering over Cliff and Cliff would be like theo sit down okay so they were trying to get that they
couldn't find that kid okay and she submitted me they didn't want to see me and at the last minute
she resubmitted me because they couldn't find the guy and they were doing network callbacks this
crazy because it was good friday 84 uh i auditioned at 6.30 on Friday afternoon
and the network callbacks were that Monday.
So they were already flying in somebody from Chicago,
flying in somebody from New York.
So I was literally the last person they saw.
And when I went in for the network callbacks,
I went in and I did the audition like,
you know, see you know
I was watching different strokes and whatnot so you see kids being smart Alex and talking back
to the parents and rolling their eyes so I was doing the scene like that and in the room is you
know network um you know producers studio and I'm killing in the room everybody's like I'm hitting
all the beats and everybody's laughing and I'm killing and i finish and everybody's like cool except mr cosby and he's looking at me and
he's like would you really talk to your father like that and i said no he said well i don't
want to see that on the show so you go back out and you give me something else and come back later
and because it was the network callbacks like everybody was there so they had you know audition
everybody for other parts and finally i following, I came back in and,
uh,
gave them 180 degree turn.
Well,
clearly he saw something in you though.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And,
uh,
and you know,
they gave me a shot to come back and redo it.
And that's how I booked it.
You know,
what's interesting about what you said early,
uh,
you said that you was in theater at nine years old.
So people see these gifted young actors on shows like cosby back in
the day and we don't realize the background because nowadays it feel like it's no point
of entry to you know get on these tv shows or anything or social media or social media
like you actually went and were perfecting your craft before you got to that point yeah and i
still do like i've always every couple years i'll do theater even when i was on cosby like i always go back to theater because that is the uh i mean
that's the that's the foundation you know so i always say like theater is my favorite platform
uh television is my favorite paycheck but theater is really like like that's
i mean that's that that's that's the right. Have you ever just sat back and reflected on what you and the Cosby show meant to black people in really the world from 84 to 92?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's something that we still talk about.
Right.
So.
Who's we?
You say we the character.
No, no, I'm saying we like, like worldwide.
The culture.
The culture.
Yeah.
You know, because it's had a an indelible um irreversible
effect yeah you know on the culture so i mean it's something i'm very proud like no matter what
i'm very proud to um you know have been a part of that and part of that um you know just to have
that kind of i guess influence if you will and when I was younger you know it
was always I was always trying to escape this role model you know title because I
was like oh my god he's a role model and my thing was always we always equate
perfection with role model so I never wanted the pressure of being you know
being seen as flawless because I just I didn't want that.
Like that wasn't me.
So I used to kind of kind of shy away from that, you know, that title.
But now that I'm older, not that I want to be considered a role model, but do understand the uh you know having the platform
i understand uh having the ear of young people like you know fortunately i'm still at a place
where i'm still relevant enough where you know what i say can still have influence
people will always listen to you because of that time period. Sure, yeah. Straight up. Yeah. And that's something I take seriously.
So I was really fortunate because we shot Cosby here in New York.
And, you know, during the 80s, man.
Y'all didn't show the other side of Brooklyn.
That wasn't Brooklyn in the 80s.
That was actually Manhattan.
That was actually downtown.
So we shot in Brooklyn, then we shot in Queens.
But that stoop, that front stoop was actually in the village. In the village, Manhattan. That was actually the... No, so we shot in Brooklyn, then we shot in Queens. But that stoop, that front stoop was actually in the village.
In the village, yeah.
That wasn't even Brooklyn.
Right by the old station.
Yeah.
All right, we got more with Malcolm Jamal Warner.
When we come back, don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God.
Jason Lee is hanging out with us today.
We got a special guest we're still kicking it with, Malcolm Jamal Warner.
I was going to ask, Theo, you being always looked at as Theo, Jason Lee is hanging out with us today. We got a special guest we're still kicking it with, Malcolm Jamal Warner.
I was going to ask, Theo, you being always looked at as Theo,
does that ever bother you?
Because with certain characters that we always look at,
whether it's Steve Urkel, he's always going to be Steve Urkel,
and you're always Theo.
Does that ever bother you?
No, it doesn't bother me.
But there's been this, I guess, this wave of interpretation that it bothers me because if somebody calls me Theo, I'm like, no, my name is Malcolm.
Right.
But I've always done that.
But some people, they misinterpret it as like, I get mad when people call me Theo.
My thing is like, no.
And even when I was on Cosby, I wouldn't answer to Theo because as far as I was concerned,
Theo was not going to be the end all be all for me.
Like at 15 years old to think like, oh, if this is going to be the height of my career, that's a depressing thought.
When the show first aired, I'm 14.
You know, the ratings are out the box.
And my mom sat me down.
She said, baby, it's great that this show is the phenomenon that it is.
But you know how this business is.
This show could be over
next year what are you gonna do when the show's over she said i can type i can always get a job
but what are you gonna do when the show's over so she impressed upon me the concept of longevity
so i wasn't you know i when i was on the show i never asked you to theo and especially now
you should know right like now if somebody calls me theo
they're being a yeah because they know my name right and i also don't think people look at you
as theo like i get what you're saying they shouldn't at this point like you've done a you've
done a lot other than theo i mean you had a whole other show with your name in it yeah yeah how long
did it take you to adjust to life after Cosby show?
Like how did things look in 92?
Well, I'd always prepared for it.
That was the thing.
Like I was, you know, from that conversation that my mom had with me, we literally spent each year of that show as if it were the last year because we didn't know.
So I had always prepared for for life after after kaji so when the show was over
i had my own show for a half a season on nbc and then from that i went straight to theater
um so i i was i i've always i've always worked no there may there may have been you know uh
longer stretches of unemployment than I would have liked.
But we're talking like maybe two, three years.
But I always knew that the transition from
being seen as child star to being
taken seriously as an adult actor
wouldn't necessarily be a smooth one.
And that's why I started directing early.
Like I started directing like 16.
By 18, I was directing
Cosby episodes. I was directing music videos episodes i was directing music videos i was directing fresh
prince of bel-air so when i came off of cosby yeah what episode i think it was episode with
raven one of the raven simone's episodes okay yeah i was i wonder did you look at bill cosby
as a father figure because you around him so much he did so much acting like right and and i mean
you're a good actor but it was believable it seems like you admired him as a father when I would watch the show or even see you behind the scenes of the show or whatever.
Well, I was doing theater.
I was perfecting my craft at night.
That's a great job.
Right.
No, because, you know, my father has always been, you know, an integral part of my life.
So I have a father.
He was, you know, know miss cosby was obviously someone
i worked with someone i respected but ennis was also you know a close friend of mine so he was
also like ennis's dad gotcha so it wasn't um i mean i i would definitely say he was a mentor
because he you know he schooled me on a lot of you know on a lot of things but the um i i love But I love the father-son relationship between Cliff and Theo, but that wasn't our relationship.
We're mad cool, but it wasn't the father figure.
Now, as a mentor, did he school you on to contracts and negotiations?
Because that thing, it's still on now.
And I'm like, do you still get paid?
And was everything taken care of the right way?
Or was it you were a new actor, you got got? Yeah, we got got. No, I wasn't saying we. And I'm like, do you still get paid? And was everything taken care of the right way? Or is it you're a new actor?
You got got.
Yeah, we got.
Well, I want to say we got got.
That's not fair.
That's not.
That's completely unfair to say we got got.
But I will say this.
So, yeah.
So we get residuals.
Right.
But the thing that people don't necessarily understand about residuals is every time an
episode repeats, you get a percentage of what your original paycheck was.
And that show has repeated forever.
Correct.
So let's say, to put things in perspective, about 10, 12 years ago, I remember getting an episode check for $64.
I thought an original check would be a quarter sometimes at some point sending the check out
costs more than what the check is
so for a period of time though
that lump sum
was a nice padding
but then after a while
once it just keeps airing
it's not a whole lot
but when you have uh points when
you've got back end that's when you're forever making money because when they syndicate the show
however many times they syndicated you have a piece of the show so you're getting that kind
of money we didn't get ownership we had no no back end we didn't know about back end and even
if we did we didn't have any leverage to negotiate you said something that
made me feel like i'm gonna fail a black history trivia question what show did you have on nbc for
a half a season oh man it was uh trust me on how to failure they they they they they on that too
it was a show called here and now i definitely don't remember that show yeah it came on it so
it came on saturday nights it was uh it came on after or came on before.
It was a show called Out All Night with Patti LaBelle.
I remember Out All Night.
Yeah, so we were on.
I was on that.
Were you really?
Yeah, yeah.
With Morris Chestnut?
I was.
He thinks he's Morris Chestnut.
Oh, got it.
He swears he looks like Morris Chestnut.
It's so disrespectful to Morris Chestnut But he swears
Morris said he gets mistaken for me sometimes
He said that just recently happened
And you were the only one
Well, it happened
And I'm holding that
No
Alright
Oh God, that's hilarious
I remember that all night
I definitely remember that
Patti LaBelle, Morris Chestnut, yeah
So it was during that time
So this is something that's really interesting
So we had that show
The president or the programmer at NBC at the time
Didn't like the show, right the time didn't like the show.
Right. And didn't think the show was going to do well. And it was basically, you know, it wasn't Theo.
But, you know, my character worked in the community center in Harlem.
And the program of NBC didn't think it was going to be a funny show, didn't think it was going to work.
We shot the pilot and they do what's called uh pilot screening week where they get all their pilots they screen
them then they get rated and then that's how they decide what's going to go on there um my show came
in number two so really the only question was um do we put this show you know on Thursday night before different
world or after different right because so for eight years if my face is you
know if the Americas used to sing my face at Thursdays at 8 o'clock it makes
sense that if my pilot does well you're gonna put me on Thursdays either at 8
o'clock or 830 they the programmers still didn't like the show and he put me on Saturday night.
Which is why nobody ever heard it
because my audience is not going to be watching
even on Saturday night.
And then when the number one rated,
the number one pilot,
they put in that 8 o'clock slot,
they canceled after two weeks.
So we're like, okay, cool.
They're putting number two in that slot. Kept me on saturday night then they put out all night in that slot wow like
nbc just they were not trying to hear that show no matter how well it did so we got we got canned
half a season in so what you don't know about that show here and now uh this cat named dante
bizet was on the show right everybody knows him as Yassine Bey right now.
Oh, wow.
Lauren Hill was on the show.
Wow.
What?
Yeah.
Omar Epps was on the show.
What?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But NBC, they didn't dig the show.
Of course, this was before they blew up.
But yeah, they were all on the show.
If they'd have made one little adjustment and made you Theo on that show, and you older
now, I bet you it would have worked.
You know what?
It's possible.
I want to ask, you know, out of all your episodes, I'll ask Charlamagne.
So my most memorable Cosby show is, of course, The Gordon Contreras.
Season one episode.
And of course.
That's not the most memorable.
But maybe.
Of course, The Earring.
Maybe two of them.
That was episode eight?
I think it was season one episode.
Okay.
Of course, The Earring.
The Earring.
Dance Mania. I did the same thing when I got my Earring. So That was episode eight? I think it was season one episode. Okay. Of course, the airing. The airing. The airing.
Dance mania.
I did the same thing when I got my airing.
Dance mania.
What was your favorite?
All of those, but I think that at the top of this would be the pilot.
When Theo was getting D's in school, and they did the whole Monopoly money thing.
And, you know, Theo gives this speech.
I just want to be regular people. You're a doctor, and mom's a lawyer. And you're both successful and everything, and, you know, Theo gives this speech. I just want to be regular people.
You're a doctor and mom's a lawyer.
And you're both successful and everything, and that's great.
But maybe I was born to be a regular person and have a regular life.
If you weren't a doctor, I wouldn't love you less because you're my dad.
Instead of acting disappointed because I'm not like you maybe you can just
accept who I am and love me anyway because I'm your son why can't you love
me for me it was like this beautiful heart in the audience nine and cliff looks at yo and it's a steal that's the dumbest thing i've ever heard
in my life no wonder you get d's and everything and so for me that was significant because
it set the tone for the show like any other show at that point the music would have started correct
the father and son would have hugged yep but he But he went left with that, and I just love that because that set the tone that this was
going to be a different kind of show.
Gotcha.
We're going to talk to you about other stuff other than Colby.
I just want to, as a fan, I got to get something.
No doubt.
No doubt.
It's my first time here.
We got to go.
No doubt.
All good.
Did you ever keep the Gordon Gartrell shirt?
I did not.
I think it's in the Smithsonian, if I'm not mistaken.
It should be. It should be.
Yeah.
That was a classic.
That was definitely
one of our most fun
and for me,
most memorable episodes.
All right,
we got more
with Malcolm Jamal Warner.
When we come back,
don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.

happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow,
and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run

What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets. Bullets.

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her
dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves,
for self-preservation and protection. it was literally that step by step.
And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God.
Jason Lee is hanging out with us today.
We got a special guest we're still kicking to it, Malcolm Jamal Warner.
Charlamagne?
Now, are you still cool with cockroach?
Call Anthony Payne.
We're cooler.
We're cooler as adults
than we were during that time.
Really?
What?
Y'all didn't get along back then?
No, no, we didn't.
Not at all?
No, we didn't.
This young ego?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what it was.
All right.
Yeah.
And it was, yeah.
It was,
when I talk about earlier,
the original callbacks for Cosby, they flew in an actor from Chicago and flew in an actor from New York.
Carl was the actor.
They flew in from New York.
So had I not auditioned for the show, Carl would have played Theo.
Damn.
I look at you every day and see you took my part.
And then I got to come back and play your best friend?
Damn.
So, you know, I think on one hand, you know, that may have had something to do with it.
No, that was part of it.
And he just had a huge ego.
From New York?
You know, yeah, he had a huge ego.
And I didn't come from that kind of place
and you know
the way I
the way I felt then
and the way
I feel now
you know
based on my career
if anybody
you know
should walk around
with a huge ego
it should be me
and if I don't roll like that
I don't really
I have very little tolerance
for people
who roll like that
so we never really we just never really got along back then.
But we're grown now.
And Carl's been through a lot.
His journey is, he's had a journey.
And as adults, we've been able to sit down and have conversations.
And we're in a very cool grown man place now.
Then we were teenagers.
I feel like you had to be broken up or something the way you sounded.
I had to be broken up before?
Like there's a furniture movement?
No, no, no, no.
It wasn't that bad.
Okay, okay.
It wasn't that bad.
Why when it came to musical expression it was jazz?
Because you a hip-hop baby.
So the jazz so it's
when i started my band you know i was always doing already doing poetry but i was in the the the
spoken word scene i was doing spoken word with other bands and whatnot but when i started my band
it was to i was playing bass it was to kind of i wanted to do like this jazz funk kind of thing. And then ultimately, I ended up infusing my poetry with my own band.
And Neo Soul was big at the time.
And people, because of the spoken word and what I was doing,
they wanted to call it Neo Soul.
And at the time, I was like, nah, Neo Soul is a fad.
I don't want to be associated with a fad, because when that runs out,
people might not be as interested in what i'm doing if i call it jazz funk then i could
it's something i could grow into so when i'm 50 60 years old i could still be doing that and at
the time i'm 26 20 i'm like 28 now at the time i was like besides no one's gonna want to hear a dude rapping at 50
years old now well now fast forward fast forward you know cast is still nice but at 28 we get we
at 28 we didn't see it we couldn't see that correct but so the jazz funk spoken word was
just kind of my way of having this lane.
But it's really, what I do is really, it's soul, R&B, and hip hop at the end of the day.
Because I'm not, though I'm a jazz student, I'm not, I wouldn't consider myself a jazz musician.
But I just wanted to use that title because I didn't want to get lumped in in neo soul i didn't want to just
call it because it's not just r&b it's not just and it's not just spoken word it's not just hip
hop it's really a combination of all of that so when i describe it i describe it as a jazz funk
spoken word band um but it's probably more of a you know r&b soul uh spoken word. And Hiding in Plain View is Grammy nominated, right?
Yeah, yeah.
How's that feel?
Yeah, it's dope.
Where, where, where?
I got a Grammy in 2015 with Robert Glasper and Layla Hathaway.
Man, I did not know that.
Yeah, wow.
Yeah, on Robert's Black Radio 2 album.
He does a cover of Stevie Wonder's Jesus Children of America.
And Layla sings.
And then I do a poem in tribute to the kids from Sandy Hook.
And in 2015, that won for Best Traditional R&B Performance.
Oh, wow.
So for this album, Hiding in Plain View, which is my fourth album, for that to get Grammy nominated, you know it's like that I mean you know
it takes to a whole nother level like of course getting a Grammy that's amazing
it means everything but to have my own work record and my own work that I did
most of the production on myself even though I don't do this for validation
it's so validating you know and it feels congratulations thank you man we got to talk
about accused the reason you're here you got a new show on fosco it starts uh january 22nd
yeah tell us about accused because it's not much on it we i looked at the trailers we all looked
at the trailers we see you in an orange jumpsuit so yeah break down accused so accused is a uh
a courtroom anthology series so every episode
is a standalone episode like twilight zone or black mirror um my particular episode is i i play
a man whose daughter uh is sexually accosted in a park and i choose to meet out justice
myself. Handle things on your own.
Yeah. So you're only on one episode?
It's only one episode. One episode, okay.
But it's a powerful episode.
It's hard to watch
because of the subject matter
and I think
that's what it is with all the episodes.
They're tough to watch because
subject matter is
really tough but the show um is really good and i'm i'm very proud of the work on the show and
again it's just another side like with the resident um as well it's just another side
of me that people don't normally get to see i wasn't gonna ask before you get up out of here would you mind doing a poem why don't we just play one from the album he could do one he could
do one do a live he's here would you rather do one would you rather do one of those guests i
appreciate it okay um this piece is uh asante sana abadigani comrade what you still on that
freedom word like you don't mean this poetry
we still be on that weed that birthing inspirational couplets and breed them
that i spit cat should heat them that words can't break my bones but if you cut me homes i bleed them
atonement for the masses of hard asses and heads that tread on civil liberties in the
most uncivilized of fashion is said to be dead.
Can we afford to be dumb for free?
See that's the question I'm asking as I beg for an ounce of truth amongst the aloof
surrounding me.
My vices are proof that these demons keep hounding me reality keeps pounding
me almost astounding me into the strange hypocrisy you see I preach the same hope
that I'm losing daily like my religion people deep I bear my soul I stand on
the precipice of this crossroads it's like I want to give my life to the cause but which one
Ignorance is running so ridiculously rampant. I can't tell if I'm hating or merely debating just for fun
But I do know my heart heaves heavy upon hearing the fluttering hum of the feeble footsteps of fear
Stamping out the ferocious flames of our dogged desire and
determination to outpace the perilous prophecy our captors have programmed to be our faith
and thus our fate i know my soul soul rides with anxiety aches lies no longer need
disguise when they start looking like the truth like how do we ignore cries of ill-guided youth
spitting dope bars of self-hate
over beats that bang harder than strange fruit hangs?
Meanwhile, her breasts hang and her booty bangs
harder than the gun claps of rival gangs
fighting over territory they don't even own.
And in magic cities everywhere,
she feeds her babies based on her ability to shake what her mama gave her because her pops was too busy breaking in his disappearing act to save her from these mean streets that eat the meek in one swallow.
Lies no longer need disguise when the truth is viewed as hollow through the eyes that need it most.
We, descendants of stolen legacies, we are the guardians.
We are the gardeners.
We are the soil.
We are the toil.
We are the protectors of our seeds who need to be protected, who need to see true love and black excellence redirected, not through fame and fortune, but redirected through character and deed.
And indeed,
it is those who stand on the front line fighting for the minds of our young, black, and gifted.
It is you who are an inspiration to me
because you are the revolution we do not see on TV.
Asante, Sana.
Malcolm Jamal Warner.

Dropping the clues bombs for Malcolm Jamal Warner.
Legend.
First guest in this new chapter of the Breakfast Club.
First guest in our new studio.
And the lighting was amazing.
See how good our skin look?
All that melanin? Somebody said y'all look
IA too. You and Jason. They said we look
light skin, ashy. Just say what they said.
They did. They said in the old studio
y'all looked ashy and light skin. But in this studio
they said y'all light skin is poppin'.
Well, somebody just told me. Well, let's get to the rumors.
Jason Lee is here. He's our guest host
today. What we talking about? Listen, 50 Cent
the master troll who I want no smoke with, but I got to do my job.
Why didn't you play the intro, though?
I was supposed to be the tease.
Oh.
50 Cent, and then we played.
Oh, sorry.
I did tell him.
Jason's just ready to shoot.
I know.
Play the intro.
Rule my hazard.
Rule my hazard.
Call out a name, or you gossiping, or you chatty patting.
I am gossiping.
This is the rumor report.
I mean, I guess we on The Breakfast Club.
This is where the tea spills, right?
Yes.
On The Breakfast Club.
Now pull a gun out, Jason.
I'm not used to foreplay when it comes to the tea.
I like to get straight to it.
Wow.
And we told you to pull it out.
No.
Tell me when to turn the camera on.
Yeah, there's no lubrication.
There's no lubrication.
All right.
50 Cent is taking some accountability, which master troll taking some accountability which I really love
and he's apologizing for not believing Megan Thee Stallion
in the whole Tory Lanez shooting case
now 50 said that he was wrong for trolling Meg
after her explosive interview with Gayle King
well a lot of us did but I didn't
remember that he posted a meme from the scene
of Ricky and Boys in the Hood running away
from the gang members in the alley and the picture showed
Megan's face on Ricky and Tory's face
on the shooter well anyway he was recently talking about it uh on a morning show and that's
what he said megan the stallion uh versus tori lanes the guilty verdict everything yeah i i'm
gonna apologize to megan the stallion when she said uh she was with gail she said were you intimate
with tori lanes and she said uh what? And then it was like, no.
I was like, ah, she's lying.
At that point, I knew she was lying.
There wouldn't be no reason for me to be around each other.
From that, it felt like she was lying to me.
You know what I'm saying?
So I was like, little things would pop up,
and I wasn't being supportive of her at that point. Right.
You were a little more vocal.
Yeah, and the only reason why I felt like, you know,
at some point you should apologize, I should apologize to her,
is because when I heard the phone conversation,
that made me feel like, oh, now I know what happened.
And that was on Big Boy.
Yeah, that was on Big Boy's show.
Yeah, I mean, a lot of people I think right now,
and I'm not saying that this is you, 50,
because you know you tend to stay 10 toes down on what you say.
But a lot of people are trying to kiss Meg's ass because now they want that exclusive interview or some type of relationship.
Maybe get her in BMF.
I don't know.
But, you know, I want to shout out this woman named Char.
Her name is Char Adams at NBCUniversal.
She wrote this story about, was it Char?
Yeah, from NBC.
She wrote this story basically saying that all of us were gaslighting Meg and not believing in Meg
and you know
she attacked all the
bloggers and everybody
that had a lot to say
about what was
happening in the case
when she got it wrong
and after talking to her
on the phone
I think it was the
speech impediment
that you know
messed up her brain
and let it get all the
way to the top floor
damn it man
yeah I never understood
how anyone who read
those court documents
could you know
think that Tory Lanez
was beating that case
Envy I told you
that's just too much evidence to get to and I always said you just never know like i always said there's always
three sides there's some there's her side his side and then the truth in the middle and the
jurors got the truth and they that was her side his side kelsey's side and then the truth but
that's the thing when these situations happen you should listen to everyone right like you have to
listen to megan yes she did get shot she's the victim correct but if tory said he didn't do it you got
to listen to him too but at the end of the day in court all that matters is the evidence right okay
that's all that matters we don't see everything in that courtroom that all those documentation
comes out the the doctors the investigators all that comes out all that was in the court
docs i read beforehand bro i testify and i told told you this the phone call was in there
But I told you I told you that in the court documents
It said that police had a phone call of Tory apologizing for the incident and they the gun read the do on his hands
The the neighbor that I can't believe the defense called
Because he was the one who really filled the deal because he was saying that the little one was shooting everywhere right but the crazy part is on one on one on one hand you didn't want
to say tory was guilty because we don't want to say a black man was guilty before he had his day
in court and then the other on the other hand protect hashtag protect black women was a real
thing you know and some people were still not believing meg but i don't know i texted her and
asked her if she felt vindicated she you know she's just kind of taking a step back and watch
it all unfold yeah none of the problem is this stuff plays out in the court of public opinion and none of this
should ever play out in the court of public opinion and i don't even understand why people
be trying to convince the court of public opinion when there's an actual court of law if you got an
actual court date correct and you you're gonna have your day in court who cares about what the
court of public opinion says well that was part of the problem too i mean they wanted people to
stop playing tory's records before the court case it was too much going on like you said public opinion was
too much before the actual case you should listen to everyone involved but you have to believe
the evidence listen there's some more evidence uh that there's another conversation conversation
happening and it's really in your community because in our community we've been known about
this who's our community well your community no never mind
never mind the straight community yellow let me go to this topic yellow I was confused
listen yellow bees is in the news because he's reacting to being in an all-gender large-scale
bathroom in New York City which is crazy because we've been doing that in our community from day one but this is uh audio that we heard here you go in new york this is legal
so cool i didn't want to let y'all know new york you go to the restaurant with
men and women and this is legal and i'm i'm appalled I'm not his parents. I'm not his parents. I'm a mom. His family now.
Yeah, I'm just...
It just is really...
They just want you to really just get lifted up and...
I guess.
I don't understand it.
And this is completely legal, right?
Back in my day, all gender bathrooms used to be called unisex.
Yeah, unisex, yeah.
Yeah, what I was trying to say, in our community, in the gay community, we've had unisex bathrooms for years i'm surprised that this is even news well the legendary tunnel
it was unisex bathrooms like that's oh back in the day yeah legendary tunnel was unisex you walk in
and be women men yeah where did the tunnel lead and that is jason lee with the t man you walk in
the tunnel do you walk in the tunnel in our, speaking of tunnels... In our clubs, you do. Okay.
Well, speaking of tunnels,

There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community.
Yes, you are a donkey.
The latest on that police killing of a black man.
Now to new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage.
Yesterday was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did.
And so we are in a state of emergency.
Okay, white supremacist violence is and always has been
the number one threat to our society.
But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
It's a breakfast club,
bitches. Alright, Charlene, please tell
me, why was I your donkey
of the day? Well, donkey of the day for
Thursday, January 12th goes to the president
of the United States of America, Joseph
Robinette Biden Jr. Now, this is why
I don't pledge allegiance to any political party
because when you pledge allegiance to a political
party, you automatically turn in your
ability to speak truth to power on said political party.
Both sides do it.
Okay, Republicans and Democrats.
Conservatives make excuses for things Republican politicians do.
Liberals make excuses for things Democrat politicians do.
It's disgusting.
All right, there are not too many people out there who are actually speaking objective truth about both sides.
And that's why we the people are confused.
Okay, I don't be knowing what's right.
I don't be knowing what's wrong. y'all move to goalposts depending on
who from what party does what now if you haven't heard the 46th president of the united states of
america joe biden is under fire because it's been discovered that president biden has a two dozen
classified documents in a private office in washington that biden used as part of a think
tank that was the first batch of classified documents
because aides to President Biden have discovered
at least one more additional batch of classified documents
in a location separate from his Washington office.
I can't make any of this up.
Let's go to ABC News for the report, please.
Tonight, sources tell ABC News that after attorneys for President Biden
discovered a batch of classified documents in a former office he used
after being
vice president, they immediately went digging to see if there were any more. And we're now told
that they did end up finding a second set of classified documents at another location.
People know I take classified documents and classified information seriously.
Sources telling ABC News the initial batch of roughly 10 classified documents discovered in November were vice presidential briefing papers, some marked top secret,
with information about a number of other countries. I don't know what's in the documents.
My lawyers have not suggested I ask what documents they were. I've turned over the boxes. They've
turned over the boxes to the archives, and we're cooperating fully.
The White House emphasizes that as soon as Biden's attorneys discovered the documents, they quickly contacted the National Archives,
which in turn reached out to the Justice Department, which has launched a preliminary investigation.
Former President Donald Trump, on the other hand, who took more than 300 classified documents with him to Mar-a-Lago,
refused to turn over all the material for months, which ultimately led the FBI to search his home.
It sounds pretty light, right? The way they reported that.
The story sounds familiar, though, right? You heard that before, huh? You heard that before.
Why does it sound familiar? It sounds familiar because, as he said at the end,
Trump is under criminal investigation by the DOJ for his removal of government records from the White House when he left office in 2021, as well as for possible obstruction of justice in connection with efforts by federal authorities to recover these documents.
A FBI raid of Magalago discovered thousands of pages of government documents, more than 100 of which were marked classified or highly classified.
They even raided other properties of Trump's and a team hired by Trump found at least two items more classified in the West Palm Beach, Florida storage unit.
Basically, to me, all these politicians clearly do the same stuff.
I know. I know. It's a no liberal soldier out there right now saying they're not the same.
Charlemagne Trump obstructed justice by not turning them over. Biden turned his over.
Hey, man, relax. OK, you don't have to make excuses for that man.
All right. I know you don't want to tell the truth because you don't have to make excuses for that man. All right. I know you
don't want to tell the truth because you don't want to lose your invite to the White House
Christmas party. But stop. All right. The hypocrisy surrounding this story is nuts.
Listen how Trump was reported on when his documents were found. This is MSNBC. Listen,
this is a big deal. What this shows, obviously, is that the FBI was able to convince a judge
that there was probable cause to believe that there was evidence of a crime and that that evidence existed at this location, that they had to go and do this search,
you know, a big Fourth Amendment intrusion into someone's property. There's been some speculation
this relates to the case of the missing records from the National Archives. If you recall,
there were reports that Trump took some records from the White House they shouldn't have taken. That's conceivably possible, but this is just a huge, huge step, unprecedented in American
history perhaps by the FBI.
And so it's coming in the context of this other set of investigations involving Trump
and election, seeking to overturn the election, people close to him being called before the
grand jury, lawyers who advised him being targeted with their own warrants so there's a lot going on in terms of law enforcement activity directed at the former
president is biden being investigated as a crime yet shouldn't it be i mean it really must suck
to pledge allegiance to a party look all you democratic d writers please know d writing has
never been a suitable form of transportation okay secretary, Secretary Pete wouldn't even recommend that.
All right. I know, you know, liberal soldiers are saying it's not the documents that are the problem.
It's the obstruction. OK, Trump obstructs the justice by not turning the documents over when they ask.
Sure, that was part of it. But don't sit here and play with our intelligence and act like y'all didn't make it seem like the actual documents were the problem.
Y'all told us the classified documents were the issue because folks said they didn't know what was in the documents people were saying oh could be nuclear
cold the trump could be selling classified information to foreign entities it was all
about the classified documents but with biden folks are like well classified info slips out
from time to time okay it slips out often it's the obstruction that's the difference here making
it seem like this situation with biden isn't a big deal nah man
keep that same energy okay everyone has to keep that same energy from from liberal media to the
doj everybody okay nbc news had a headline and uh it was like the headline was the discovery
of classified documents among biden's papers is a bad look for the president a bad look
just a bad look two batches of classified documents found and it's just a bad look when this happened to Trump last year
NBC News headlines were Intel officers will assess risk the national security
from documents found at Trump's Magalago this is what happens when political
parties who are two wings of the same bird try to act morally better than the
other listen do I think Trump Republicans are fascists who want to destroy
democracy as we know it yes okay but what did our ancestor malcolm x say our ancestor malcolm x said
the white conservatives aren't friends of the negro either but they at least they don't try to
hide it all right they are like wolves they show their teeth in a snarl that keeps the negro always
aware of where he stands with them but the white liberals they're like foxes who also show their
teeth to the negro but pretend that they are smiling all right the white liberals are more
dangerous than the conservatives they lure the negro and as the negro runs from the growling wolf
he flees into the open jaws of the smiling fox that's what all these stories about biden remind
me of a bunch of foxes smiling trying to tell us that no no no i know we got caught doing the same
thing but the difference is i turned my docs over he didn't well that's not what y'all was trying to make us believe about those wolves last year
all right last year you told us the problem with those wolves with the classified documents in fact
we have receipts from the president himself let's listen when you saw the photograph of the top
secret documents laid out on the floor at mar-a-Lago. What did you think to
yourself looking at that image? How that could possibly happen? How anyone could be that
irresponsible? And I thought, what data was in there that may compromise sources and methods?
By that, I mean names of people who helped or et cetera. And it's just totally irresponsible.
Joe Biden sounds like he's talking to the man in the mirror right now, doesn't he?
Those comments didn't age well. Look, all I want is legislation. I don't care about party politics.
I'm voting for whoever cares about my issues and takes action for my issues.
All you fools who came for a particular party you're all liars okay you have to be by
proximity and the only reason we ask for consistency is because we just want y'all to
admit how inconsistent you all really are and that's why we the people don't trust none none
of y'all okay please let remi ma give president biden the biggest hee haw hee haw hee haw you
stupid mother are you dumb all right i i refuse to be a no liberal soldier
no liberal soldier i thought i told you no liberal soldier were they dancing to that at the christmas
party when y'all went i felt and watching uh what kind of little beatboxing no watching don lemon
try to do the cupid shuffle was the funniest part of the how the hell you keep a shuffle with no dj
at a band at a band okay. Alright, but thank you

Call 800-585-1051 to join in the discussion with the breakfast club let's talk about it
morning everybody it's dj nv charlemagne the god jason lee is our celebrity guest host today
so we're asking we're talking all gender bathrooms now this conversation comes from
yellow beezy yeah jason lee brought this up early i never heard this yeah so uh yellow beezyZ was actually in New York City and this was the first time he's seen it. So let's play the audio
This is legal
So cool
I just wanna let you out on New York. You go to the restaurant
Men and women and this is legal, and I'm, I'm a Paul.
I'm not named Paul, I'm a Paul.
This family know.
Yeah, I'm just, it's just as regular, they just want you to really just get lifted up and I guess.
I don't understand this.
And you, and this is completely legal, right?
So we're asking, what are your thoughts on all-gender bathrooms?
Now, I'm 44 years old, so I'm old.
Back in my day, all-gender bathrooms were just called unisex bathrooms.
Right.
Correct.
I'm getting texts from people in New York right now who are listening saying that this was at the tunnel.
Yeah, it was at the tunnel.
Yeah, that's the first time I seen it was at the tunnel. But I will say this.
Having kids is a funny feeling, right? tunnel yeah that's the first time i seen it was at the tunnel but i will say this having kids
is a it's a funny feeling right because there's sometimes i don't i don't know about you so i have
a nine-year-old sometimes i send my daughter into the bathroom and if i send her into the bathroom
i would assume that there's only young girls her age or maybe moms in the bathroom yeah i wouldn't
assume that maybe there's males in the bathroom as well. So when it comes to kids, I see where people would have a problem.
I get it.
What do you think, Jay?
I mean, I think right now because the whole conversation about LGBTQ fairness and, you know, equality and diversity and all that is just raise people's awareness of things like this.
I mean, I've always been in restrooms since I've been in L.A.
All the restrooms are unisex for the most part at the club.
So I don't know.
I don't see it as a problem.
What do they think people are doing in these bathrooms?
Whenever I hear people say these things like, oh, man, well, what if you go in the bathroom and X, Y, Z is happening?
I'm like, I don't think people are thinking like that.
I think people that go in the bathroom are thinking just like you.
They want to pee?
Go to the bathroom.
Why do they want to do it, number two?
Right.
That's it.
I mean, weird stuff could go down in a straight bathroom.
Let's be very clear.
Yeah, absolutely.
We in the straight bathroom. So, I mean,. Yeah, absolutely. We in the straight bathroom.
So, I mean, I don't know.
I don't see this issue.
Technically, right?
What's that?
If it's men bathrooms and women bathrooms, isn't it more likely that some gay stuff would happen in the bathroom with the same genders?
I think so.
I just don't see why it's an issue.
I think because, again, we've over-politicized the LGBT issues.
Not that that's right or wrong.
I mean, you can have your own opinion.
I think it just makes people more sensitive to it.
Why you drop all the letters, though?
How come when people that aren't from the community, people aren't from the community say all the letters?
LGBTQ, something plus?
Because I'll tell you, I can't say, let me see the list of words I can't say.
Okay, I can't say.
I think we're messing it up honestly we're
making it more complicated for you all you all are they're messing it up and the media is picking
up and then everybody's upset about everything i don't know i don't even know what ai is at this
point it's lgbtq no disrespect to everybody else but just you know find one of those round it off
hold on they got ai in there now there's lgbtq you ai plus what what's the a i don't know the
a or i or the plus.
Those are people who are sexually attracted to robots.
Artificial intelligence.
Shut up.
Let's go to the phone lines, man.
Hello, who's this?
Hello?
Hey, what's up?
Who's this?
Yeah.
Hello?
Hello?
Hey, what's your name, bro?
Uh, I'm curious.
All right, whatever.
What do you think about all gender bathrooms?
Whatever.
Whatever you mean.
Nah, I just wanted to say like, you know,
it's weird. It's kind of weird because
like I'm 30 years old, so to see it
right now, like I'm so used to
seeing like a female in a male
bathroom. I'm seeing like
all together. And I know the whole
unisex situation, but
that's kind of rare. But to see it
everywhere, it's just really different now.
I guess people got it different.
You don't get used to it.
That's all.
Yeah, I would walk out if I saw a woman in the bathroom.
Only because I'm used to that.
Like, I've walked in women's bathrooms by mistake before.
You see the woman first, you think, oh, I'm in the wrong bathroom.
You know what I mean?
So I would probably just walk out if I saw a woman in the bathroom.
But if it's a unisex bathroom, it's, you know, you could be in the stall and she could be in the stall next to you.
Or somebody could be in the stall next to you.
That's the whole purpose of unisex bathroom.
Well, if she's standing in the stall next to you, that's the... Well, yeah. If she's standing in the stall next to you or somebody could be in the store next to you. That's the whole purpose of music. Well, if she's standing in the store next to you, that's the...
Well, yeah.
If she's standing in the store next to you, that's the Big Papa video.
Y'all forgot about that Big Papa video.
Remember the Big Papa video?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
When the two guys are peeing and then the woman comes in and whips out and she pees
right next to him?
Yeah.
Well, not the...
Oh, yeah, woman.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, I think she was a trans woman.
I think.
We don't know what...
Anyway, hello, who's this?
Jason's here.
Ask him.
You don't have to ask. You don't have to ask. I don't know what. Anyway, hello, who's this? Chase is here. Ask him.
You don't have to act crazy.
Ask Jason. I love the fact that, like, when I said that everybody start dancing around it, they pull
up, too, and pull out.
You right there, you got to pee.
I mean, just because you're trans doesn't mean you have to go sit down.
You can pull up and pee.
I wouldn't be uncomfortable.
I would look.
And the reason I would look, I'm going to tell you why I would look.
I would look because I would have to make sure I see what I'm seeing
because it would be like
you would just do it by nature
you don't think so?
no
you stand next to a man
do you look?
I do
but if a woman walks up to me
and
Jason said I do
well Jason
I mean it's just natural
I mean I don't know
look our bathroom
and that's part of the problem
I think people don't want
but our bathroom
I mean our
again going back to the all-male restrooms,
there's some all-male restrooms in L.A.
that are in our community.
It's a whole different experience.
It's a different experience.
Hold on.
Jason's going to have to explain that.
Okay, now...
They took the doors off the stall.
Hold on, K.
Hold on, K.
Hold on, K.
We're going to get back to K.
There's a whole other interesting conversation going on.
Ain't no doors on the stall.
No, there's some bathrooms where you can't put a, you put a door on a stall in a gay,
all gay bathroom.
What?
Yeah, that's problematic.
Explain to me the guys that go in the bathroom and pull their pants down to pee.
Okay, I'll be honest with you.
There's some times I do that.
I want to get on my Instagram.
I just, you know, I just, I don't, I don't know.
Pants to the floor?
Yeah.
Just to stand up to pee?
Ass out?
Cheeks? Oh, stand up. Yeah. Oh, yeah. No, that's some weird shit. Oh, you Just to stand up to pee? Ass out? Cheeks?
Oh, stand up.
Oh, yeah.
No, that's some weird shit.
You talk about sit down to pee?
Yeah, sometimes.
You just sit down just to pee?
Yeah, because I've got to read my phone.
Yeah, it's like going on, yeah.
Okay.
All right, go back to K.
Every kiss begins with K.
Hey, K.
Hi.
Thank you for holding.
Now, what do you think about holding?
Go ahead, Mama.
I think that they shouldn't have all
gender bathrooms everywhere
because when I take my four year old
daughter to the bathroom I don't want her
looking over and seeing a grown man
in the bathroom
I said the same thing I don't think it should be
everywhere because when I do take my kids out
and I take my kids and they gotta go to the bathroom
I agree I agree with you
I agree and this is an interesting conversation
because I remember some years ago
when the conversations about
transgenders using the bathroom
was happening
and there was a lot of this.
But nobody ever had the conversation,
well, how do straight people feel
about being in the bathroom
with other straight people?
Because it's the same thing, right?
Like, I wouldn't want my daughters
in the bathroom with grown men.
So no fathers are taking their babies
into a bathroom
and changing their diapers or anything?
Or is it just a certain age? But they have the all-family
bathrooms. Yeah, they have the all-family bathrooms. Yeah, they have the family
bathrooms for that. Like, they have the bathrooms that
tell you where the diaper-changing tables are and
everything. And I don't even think they're, they're not really bathrooms. They're just
actual changing stations. But this is the evolution
of bathrooms. Now we have a bathroom for
everybody. What's wrong with it? I mean, I don't
know why we have to sexualize the peeing and
going number two experience.
Jason just said what I was trying to say. I can't say the word i couldn't i couldn't i couldn't put together the words but
that's what you just said the sexualization yeah of peeing and duking yeah that's all it is so
what do you expect to happen in the bathroom i'm going in the bathroom to pee i mean like this
conversation is making me literally look at bathrooms with like red lights and smoke and i
mean like it's a bathroom yeah well bathroom
here it's too far
I just want to tell you that
if any of my iHeart
listening to bathroom
it's too far from the studio
yeah it's too far
from the studio
it is
by the way
I've never walked
through a bathroom
and seen any couple
having sex
I have
oh yeah I have
yeah I don't
you don't go out though
you don't go out
you go out a little bit more
you'll see that

We are The Breakfast Club. We have Jason Lee.
Here's our guest host this morning.
We're talking all gender bathrooms.
Now, this conversation came from Yellow Beezy.
Jason Lee reported this in the rumors, and this is what he said.
In New York, this is legal.
So, I just want to let you out on New York.
You go to the restroom with men and women, and this is legal.
And I'm a Paul.
It's fair.
I'm a Paul.
I'm a Paul.
His family knows.
Yeah, I'm just, it just is regular.
They just want you to really just get lifted up and f***ed, I guess.
I don't understand this s***.
And this is completely legal, right?
So we're getting your opinions, taking your calls.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, it's Barefoot Randy.
Randy, what's up, bro?
What's your opinion?
I think they're fine, man.
Like, we've had them for a long time at the music venue that I work at.
Well, play music venue.
Play music at.
Sorry.
Okay, so what you think they've done?
Yeah, it worked pretty well.
Works pretty well.
I like the girls, you know, where the girls go more because it's a little cleaner.
I got you.
But now let me ask you this.
Would a woman feel comfortable going to the bathroom?
Because if a woman's trying to go to the bathroom, like you said, to pee or poop,
and there's guys in there, guys are going to holler.
Does it make it feel uncomfortable because women won't get their privacy?
Why do you think guys are going to holler?
Guys holler anywhere.
Depends how that poop smell.
I don't care how pretty you are.
If you go in that bathroom and blow it up, ain't nobody going to try to holler at you.
Pretty V has the worst farts ever.
On Wild N' Out, she would come into hair and makeup and just fart.
And that ruined our relationship for a couple seasons that's why she pooped on tv
is she remember when v pooped on tv yeah no oh she pooped somewhere remember it was on a reality
show yeah she pooped in a reality show yeah i love you v yeah she was mad that we spoke about it yeah
don't love those farts though is it that bad oh my god it's the worst and she felt comfortable
just doing it?
She would walk up to you
and do it
while you're getting
your haircut, yeah.
Wow.
I'm going to text her right now
and say,
why are you farting on people, yo?
Hello, who's this?
Yo, this is Andre
from Virginia, man.
What's up, bro?
We're talking about
all gender bathrooms.
What's your opinion?
There ain't nothing wrong
with it really
because they've been
having all gender bathrooms
if you think about it
because when we was coming up
they had unisex bathrooms.
Right. So you just go
to the bathroom
as long as it's
got a lock on it
it locks the door
so either men or
women could always
go in a single
store bathroom
are you talking
about single
you talking about
single store bathroom
one bathroom
where you gotta go
in and out
I think we're
talking more about
he said unisex
though
a bathroom
where it's like
it's a bunch of
stores and
it's either men or
women
or whatever you
identify as
do they have the
stores you can stand up and pee in
in the unisex bathrooms?
I really don't remember.
Yeah.
You don't remember back in the day they had the unisex
and you had the stall in the toilet.
I walked in the bathroom one time and seen a dude
trying to do a dookie in the stall on the wall.
The stall that you stand up to pee?
He was sitting on the stall on the...
The tray?
Like a tray?
The tray?
No, yeah, you know.
The urinal.
The urinal.
He was trying to dookie in the urinal. He was trying to duke in the urinal.
Where was this?
V12 in Columbia, South Carolina.
And what did you do?
I walked back out.
I walked in, and I walked literally right back out.
Literally.
This conversation really started happening when they started trying to change the logos on the front of the bathrooms.
Remember when they were, first it was men, women, and then it was...
The print symbol.
It was the print symbol.
It is the print symbol. I don't know what that symbol is. It was the prince symbol it was no prince it is the
prince symbol i don't know what that's the prince symbol what is it then it is it's the prince
symbol yeah it's a symbol anyway what's the moral of the story if there is a moral man i'm going in
the bathroom the prince is in there god bless the dead if i gotta go number two i would do it at
your house i would do that really what that's so disrespectful once you know once you get to 40
years i don't know about y'all,
but once I turn 40,
I didn't care about
none of that.
I will blow your bathroom up.
You would go poop
in the White House?
Did I go to the bathroom
at the White House?
Yeah, absolutely.
You got to have
certain guest bathrooms
for people that want to poop.
I think pooping at somebody's
house is so disrespectful.
I ain't going to say
what guest,
but on my show,
a guest brought their security
and there was three bathrooms
in our studio
and two bathrooms
were being used and there was one in my room and they go can i use

Okay.
I second that.
It's a great show, and I was on that show.
Jason Lee was on there.
You know what I mean?
How do I vote?
I don't know how this works.
I think you could be a writer.
Oh, yeah.
Am I right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because, you know, salute to the writers.
Salute to Senia Barnwell, Josh Lieb, Charles McBee, Dan McCoy, Andre Thompson, and myself, my writer's room.
We should win because everyone in that room is dope.
And we're diverse.
You know, we are all black room.
Josh is Jewish.
Dan is white.
And, you know, we should win for that reason and that reason alone.
I ain't mad at you.
Why do you want to give an award to another white man or white woman?
Y'all do that all the time.
It's a fun set, too.
You've had L of the Year.
And, you know, your evolution has allowed me to feel some level of freedom that i can evolve to of course jason
come on but i ain't ready right now let's talk about odell beckham let's go that conversation
a few years ago at tiffany's birthday party yeah now we have the same therapist
that is very true to him all right yeah but look odell beckham now look i have to be very careful
because odell beckham is the only celebrity to ever rush me.
What?
He's a football player rush, you know.
Oh, God.
Yeah, he attacked me, but he's evolved since then. But some would say, given what's happening now, that maybe the evolution has...
That's how he is when Jason does this.
He'll say something, and it's so good, and then he speeds past it.
You want me to tell you what happened first?
Yes.
I'd rather hear your story than this other story.
Yeah, we know that story.
This is what rumor reports should be.
Bring the music down
a little bit.
I was a big fan of Odell Beckham.
I'm a big fan now,
but I was a big fan then
before I knew who he was
personally.
And me and Floyd
went out to a club one night
and I saw him sitting there.
So I told him,
yeah, put us at the table
next to Odell.
So we sit next to him
and we get to talking.
You know, he's a little lit.
We're lit.
I get his number
because we're...
Okay.
All right.
Yo. Look at the list list you cannot say that word
he said he wasn't trying to sleep but anyway so we texted odell and you know he didn't show up and
then later on when i went to wild and out they wanted to book him on the show so i was texting
like yo you should come on the show he said yeah i'm gonna come on you know but my man's got to
come on too so we're texting about him and his man's coming on. And then somebody walked up as I was talking to the executive producers.
I was trying to show off that I had his number.
I would book him.
But I said, yo, Odell's coming.
The person dancing, Dan.
He said, no, he's not because he told me he's not coming.
So when we looked at the phone numbers, I was texting a number to a friend of his that he had given me.
So the whole time I was texting Odell, I was really texting the friend.
So at that point, I got in my feelings.
I told my team, you know, go ahead, post whatever you want texting Odell I was really texting the friend so at that point I got in my feelings I told my team you know go ahead post whatever you want Odell and we posted some stuff about him when
he was in bed with some woman and then the woman at the time was in bed with some cocaine and it
I guess it messed up the money so Odell caught me in public and I was talking to Amber Rose at a bar
and he saw me and rushed me and uh knocked all the balls over it was a mess but we ended up uh
yeah it was he put his hands on you we didn't put his hands on me but he pushed me up against
the bar and knocked all the bottles down which brought made everybody look at us and i just
thought like any straight man that gets into an argument with me in public there should be context
because everybody's gonna think it's a breakup yeah and i'm gonna play play into it. So you go, oh.
How did you do it? How did you do it against Charlamagne?
How would you do it?
He pushed you against the bar.
Well, it wasn't in a sexual way, Charlamagne.
But then I seen Chris Brown to the right.
So I'm trying to think now, what is my escape plan?
Because Chris, we had written a story about Chris at the time,
congratulating him on missing his daughter's birthday party.
Oh, man.
And so I didn't want to look too soft you know so i took my time getting out but i was definitely getting
towards the exit got to the exit and i saw odell and he was looking at me again and i just kind of
said i at the time i gasped with myself what's up sis you know just see you play too much you play
too much jason you play too much he rushed me again now i see why he's successful though i know
how he's successful on the on the fast girl he. Well, he rushed me again. Now I see why he's successful, though. I know why he's successful on the field.
He's fast, bro.
He's fast.
Yeah, he rushed me again.
Didn't knock my phone out of my hand.
We were on the ground fighting, like crawling to get the phone.
This was in public, by the way.
I never will understand why you go out.
Why?
Why you didn't have security.
He didn't have security.
I couldn't afford it then.
I definitely got a lot of security now.
And I will say, you know, he's evolved a lot.
I mean, since he's had a kid and, mean with time he's evolved and we needed an offensive
line man football no it'd be the huddle that'll get us all in trouble oh whoa but but me and odell
have grown past that he's actually you know we're in a good place now but i actually respected the
fact that he he he took matters into his own hands and my phone.
Yeah.
Yeah, but now people are talking about this video that's posted about him getting kicked off this plane.
We saw him getting escorted off a plane in Miami, but now the video's footage has hit the Internet, and this is what they're saying.
They're on his phone for you, sir.
This is his?
Yeah, they're on?
Are they on now?
Yeah.
Is there one out before?
No. Do you want him to have it for it?
No.
Do you want to know how he's taken him to the hospital?
He's on a knee brace.
Listen, if you don't want him to fly, that's a decision that you guys are going to have
to make.
You know, you cover it up and then we'll get him out.
But that's something that you guys got to make.
And I don't really see anything wrong.
He just responded to know where he's at.
Who wants to come back?
We're going to have to deport everybody. It's going to be my life.
You don't have to
pay for you.
You don't have to pay for me.
I'm going to be in a party
to bring you home.
Enjoy the cheese board.
I'm going to bring you home.
I love you.
That airplane story
is a nothing burger
in comparison to
Odell Beckham Jr.
and Jason Lee
playing flag football
in a bar with
Amber Rose and Chris Brown.
Could you imagine that?
No, Jay-Z was there too, by the way.
What?
Yeah, this was at Billy's birthday party.
Jay-Z doesn't associate with such.
He was there.
Jesus.
They're saying that he didn't want to put a seatbelt on
and that he didn't have any pants on.
I don't believe that.
In the bar?
No, on this plane.
Come on, man.
He switched.
They said he walked in with shorts on.
When he sat down, he had his pants on.
But they said he was sleeping and she was trying to wake him up and he was knocked out. You can't with shorts on. When he sat down, he had his pants on. But they said he was sleeping, and she was trying to wake him up, and he was knocked out.
But he can't wear shorts on the plane?
They said he had shorts and pants.
It didn't make sense.
It didn't make sense.
I really think they're just overplaying it.
And then to kick everybody off the plane for Odell Beck, I mean, that's problematic.
I would have been an upset passenger if they had did that to me.
Well, they told Odell to get off the plane, and they said, Odell, if you you don't get off we have to take everybody off this plane so odell was like all right fine
i'm not getting off so they took everybody off the plane and as people were leaving they were
saying odell you're an idiot you're an ass for not getting off the plane and he you know went
back but i think they did that to make him look crazy i think it was a setup i don't have a lawsuit
i don't know all right well that is jason with the t jason lee with the t where did you get this
jason with the T thing from?
Jason Lee with the T.
But it's crazy.
On my new show, that's one of our segments.
Jason with the T?

Jason Lee is here.
He's our celebrity guest host today and tomorrow.
That's right.
Now, Charlemagne, you got a positive note, bro?
I do, man.
And, you know, me and Jason was talking about, you know, evolution earlier.
This is a conversation that, you know, I have often but i do remember at tiffany haddish's 40th
birthday me and jason i don't even know how he was having this deep conversation in a damn party
but you know uh you know jason said when you say i gave you the freedom to evolve or something like
that yeah but you you at the party the way we got the deep conversation you looked at me you said
why are you always frowning why you always look mad yeah yeah yeah but my positive note is if you can't change it change your attitude you know change
the way you look at things and the things you look at change change is painful but nothing is as
painful as staying stuck okay somewhere you don't belong so those who cannot change their minds
cannot change anything so i'm glad uh myself and jason lee have changed their minds about
some things in our life.
