Starting point is 00:07:48 Now quickly, Anthony Joshua, he won over the weekend in boxing. South Carolina beat LSU 79-72. Dropping the clues box for the Lady Gamecocks, baby. The legend, Don Staley. What's happening? 8-0-3 all day.
Starting point is 00:08:04 I'm sure we'll break down what happened in the game and the rumors. And let's jump right into it. Where do you want to start? I know we ain't got much time. Yeah, we don't have much time, but I do want to tell you about Trump, how he did post that $91 million bond. Take a listen. Donald Trump has posted a bond of more than $91 million
Starting point is 00:08:19 as he appeals the verdict in a civil defamation case brought by writer E.J. Carroll. The bond guarantees Carroll will be paid the full amount plus interest as he appeals the verdict in a civil defamation case brought by writer E.G. Carroll. The bond guarantees Carroll will be paid the full amount plus interest if Trump's appeal fails. The former president posted the bond one day after a federal judge rejected his request to push back Monday's deadline to pay Carroll. A judge ruled in January that Trump defamed Carroll after she accused him of sexual assault. Trump claimed she made up the allegation, she wasn't his quote type. Trump still faces a fine of more than $450 million in a separate civil fraud case. All this while he prepares for trial beginning March 25th in the first of four criminal cases against him. And here's what he had to say about his bond at a rally this weekend in Georgia.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Take a listen. I just posted a $91 million bond, $91 million on a fake story, totally made up story. I could say things about what it would cost normally, $91 million based on false accusations made about me by a woman that I knew nothing about, didn't know, never heard of. I know nothing about her. She wrote a book. She said things. And when I denied it, I said, it's so crazy. It's false. I got sued for defamation. Now, quickly, before we get out of here, he said some other things this weekend at the rally in Georgia. He mocked Joe Biden's stutter and said, hey, he's done a lot for you black people. Let's take a listen to that. You all heard Crooked Joe's angry, dark, hate-filled rant of a State of the Union
Starting point is 00:09:50 address. Didn't it bring us together? It was an awkward, bring the country together. He's crazy. He touches, turns to, they talk about the beautiful dream of migrants. It sounds so nice, you know, like in a fairytale book. But some of these people are monsters, a big percentage of them. I will stop this invasion. I'm going to do it. I will stop the killing. I will stop the bloodshed. I will end the agony of our people, the plunder of our cities, the sacking of our towns, the violation of our citizens,
Starting point is 00:10:24 and the conquest of our country. and the conquest of our country. They're conquering our country. They're horrible people. The polls are all rigged. Of course, lately they have been rigged because I'm winning by so much. I watch these criminals back there, the press. Look at them. Look at how many of them.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Women love it. You know, I protect women. I did more for black people than any president other than Abraham Lincoln. He said the polls are rigged. Well, they're not so rigged much anymore because I'm winning. Let me see how much I'm winning by. Listen, next person who interviews Donald Trump, just ask him, you know what I'm saying? Because you can't just throw that out
Starting point is 00:10:56 there that you did more, you know, for black people than any other president. Somebody just ask him specifically, what did you do specifically for black people? What did you do? Not only that, don't you think it's wild that he had to post $91 million for defamation and he keeps talking about the lady? No, I wouldn't call it wild. I would call it Trump, but I will say this.
Starting point is 00:11:15 How much more does he owe? How much more does he owe? It's about another $400 million. Okay, who do we think is going to pay it? Russia, China, Elon Musk, a combination of two of them a combination of all three of them where you think he gonna get the rest of the money from because he's gonna get it from someplace all of the above yeah i think a little bit here a little bit there a little bit over there okay okay so he'll be beholden to russia china and elon musk all right

Angel Reese explains why she didn't jump in Flau'jae's fight. All right, so for those who don't know, it wasn't really a fight.
Starting point is 00:19:51 It was like a little, you know, a push, a very, very hard push. So before we get to Angel Reese, LSU, they played South Carolina in championship. And towards the end, Flau'jae Johnson bumped one of the players from south carolina another south carolina player defended her teammate and pushed flage hard as hell camila cardoso pushed her that was coming but yeah for feet camilla yeah pushed her big ass off her feet now all these girls are big but shorty that push flage is tall as hell six six i think or 68 maybe yeah she need to be playing with the boys that's crazy everyone except for angel reese man uh ran toward the fight and everything um also flage brother he jumped over the scoreboard what was he gonna do that's what i didn't understand
Starting point is 00:20:40 and i i get it that's your your little sister so i understand but you do realize she's fighting other women right i don't care how tall she is it seemed like it was a couple of them that was trying to jump over the edge yeah after he did it it was a couple people that ran over to you and i don't know if they were from camila family or you know but they got over there but nobody I don't think they actually ever got to hit any of the girls or whatever law enforcement they did their job they jumped in real quick um but it's like a shot of Angel Reese like wasn't her ankle messed up or something like that yeah she was going to get treatment on uh some injury when she she was actually limping off the court before the kerfuffle happened yeah yeah yeah so uh fans started to criticize Angel
Starting point is 00:21:23 for not going to help her or whatever but i looked i was like all right i seen that like something was happening with her but after the game she shared a post on x to address why she didn't she uh why she didn't why she chose not to help she said as a person at my status sometimes you have to walk away from certain situations mind you the play before that i had rolled my ankle again and was already walking to the bench i always ride for mine i'm super proud of this team and super excited for March. Go Tigers. I don't even think she got to explain that.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Yeah. She's absolutely right. It's not like they was really, really bamming and they didn't need her assistance. She got pushed off her feet. And let's just be honest. Flage got pushed off her feet because she got caught off guard, too. She didn't expect for nothing to happen to Ed Shea. She bumped a girl
Starting point is 00:22:05 and a girl ain't care and went past and all that. They was, you know, celebrating and everything. I just think that she really wasn't expecting for nobody to come and push her ass.
Starting point is 00:22:14 I'm going to be honest with you. Even if she was expecting it, I think Camila Cardoso would have still knocked that to the floor. Shorty big. Yeah, Camila Cardoso.
Starting point is 00:22:20 Yeah, I was going to say, you know how strong she was to push her off her feet like that? But her feet was in the air. Yeah, but if her feet were planted and she was ready like this was a play, I was going to say, you know how strong she was to push it off her feet like that? But her feet was in the air. Yeah, but if her feet were planted and she was ready like this was a play, I don't know. Nah, nah, Camila Cardoza was sweeping her off her feet regardless. Is your country falling apart?
Starting point is 00:22:36 Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia.
Starting point is 00:22:55 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. Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.

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.
Starting point is 00:24:57 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.

Oh, they were battling all game. They were begging out all game. She snatched her hair one time, one time, but Angel grabbed her ponytail and yanked it. Yeah, so, you know, all of that, it is what it is.

Angel Reese fight plays dirty. I like it. Yeah, and sometimes... I like it. And sometimes you just get what you get. It is what it is. But, Charlamagne, you said that she's not able to play. Camila's not able to play in the first game. That's what they're saying. She's probably gonna be suspended for the first game of the NCAA
Starting point is 00:28:40 Women's Tournament. Okay. At least it's one game. If so, but congratulations to the team that won, the South Carolina. Gamecocks, baby. 803, what's happening? You already know. Dropping the clues bombs for the Gamecocks.

That's what it is. Gamecocks is hilarious for a bunch of girls. That's hilarious. That's my wife put in the chat. I said, girl, your cocks are doing your thing this weekend. That's what it is. Game cocks is hilarious for a bunch of girls. That's hilarious.
Starting point is 00:29:07 That's my wife's alma mater. All right. That's what's up. Moving on. Juice WRLD's ex-girlfriend is allegedly selling his dreads and bodily fluids on OnlyFans. Now, this was- What? I know.
Starting point is 00:29:18 I reported this story real quick last week because it wasn't really a lot of information about it for me to go into it, But Ally Lottie is her name. She's already been accused of selling Juice WRLD's clothes and their sex tape on OnlyFans. She allegedly is selling Juice WRLD's things to bail her current boyfriend out of jail. Now, fans are saying some new products in her OnlyFans page. Some of the items that she's selling is the preserved dreads of his of his for a hundred dollars or ten. What? A hundred dollars or ten for all she's selling one for a hundred dollars and ten for a thousand. All right. And then his teeth and molars for up to a thousand dollars.
Starting point is 00:29:56 And then the one else, a vial of his sperm. What? For ten thousand dollars. How does she still have that? You've been passed away for a while now. She's still got his sperm. Oh, no probably had in the freezer a friend she was probably this a while ago it seems like probably man she's selling his clothes she got his jackets and stuff she got a picture of her dreads in his hands and stuff like that so in her hands so like this is sad this is really really sad and i know i know that you gotta do stuff for money and all of that and i mean i get that but selling your deceased ex-boyfriends sick like body fluids his teeth his molars and everything i mean with him being a start he is of course people are gonna buy it but this money ain't even going to like
Starting point is 00:30:38 did he have kids i don't think he had kids this money not even going to his family or nothing like why don't his family have his belongings? I was going to ask that. This is going to... Those aren't belongings. I don't want to just burn. No, but his clothes, his teeth, his dreads. How you get his teeth, his molars, and all of that.
Starting point is 00:30:55 I wonder if his estate can file some type of something where they can get that back. I don't think his mom or nothing would have wanted to sperm, but I'm just saying everything else. Everything else is like, how do you think of doing that? And I'm talking about our boyfriend in jail. I know he probably like, yeah, baby, sell it. But it's like, it's weird. It's kind of weird. But I think his mom would want the sperm because she wouldn't want the sperm anywhere else.
Starting point is 00:31:15 Yeah. Man, shut up, man. Nobody want nobody's sperm. Yeah, you would want it and you would discard it. You just want it out there being sold. How do you even know that's his sperm? Like, why would she be saving his sperm? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:31:28 She was dead for a few years now. What are we talking about? I don't know. Shorty need to go to jail, though. She need to. Her boyfriend can get out, but she need to go in. I just think it's clowned out. But that's just what the mess for the first hour.
Starting point is 00:31:40 She was dead in 2019. So she had his sperm since then? Come on, man. Knock it off. What they saying? All right. When we come back, we got front-page news. Cezlan Figueroa will be joining us.

Starting point is 00:32:18 I think it's worth like $1.2 or $1.8 million. But remember, he still gets $30 million plus from Denver. The Patriots trade Mack Jones to the Jaguars. And Baker Mayfield agrees on a three-year $100 million deal with the Buccaneers. Anthony Joshua, he went over the weekend in boxing. And South Carolina beat LSU 79-72. It was a little, I wouldn't say a brawl, but a brawl. It wasn't a brawl.
Starting point is 00:32:44 A kerfuffle. It was a brawl. A kerfuffle. It was a hard push. A very hard push. Yes. By the way, a well-deserved push. You know what I'm saying? A salute to Camila Cardoso. She had an incredible weekend.
Starting point is 00:32:54 A buzzer-beating game, winning three-pointer to win against Tennessee. And then she had to be an enforcer. So get you a center that can do both, all right? Yeah. Salute to Camila Cardoso. Great weekend for you. Mad, mad, mad women got women got i feel like nine women got suspended from the game we got kicked out the game huh i thought uh we got ejected yeah it was a bunch of them but only only only camilla is gonna be the only person uh who doesn't play for south carolina in the first game in the ncaa
Starting point is 00:33:19 tournament though oh only one yeah only one man all right well let's jump right into it what are we talking about tess yeah so um i don't know if you guys know this um but change healthcare that is a uh a part of united healthcare which we know united healthcare is a major insurance provider they experienced a cyber attack on february 21st and they're still suffering uh from the result of that cyber attack i want you to take a listen and I'll give you some more information on the other side. A cyber attack on the health care provider Change Healthcare is wreaking havoc nationwide as hospitals and pharmacies can't get paid and patients can't get prescriptions. So, I mean, we've seen a lot of claims coming through as a rejected claim where obviously insurance providers are not being able to pay because of this attack. The company discovered the hack on February 21st, disconnecting impacted systems immediately. Parent company United Health
Starting point is 00:34:13 stated in a federal filing. Change Healthcare says it processes 15 billion transactions annually touching one in three US patient records. I can tell you that this cyber attack has affected every hospital in the country, one way or another. Yeah, so this is really serious. This is an alleged Russian hacker known as Black Cat. They claim to be the one responsible on the dark web. They said they stole six terabytes of data including sensitive medical
Starting point is 00:34:45 records and again guys this is a big big deal and especially for smaller hospitals because they don't have the cash reserve you know in order to pay for things as they're waiting for this stuff to be taken care of but people are not able to get prescriptions because the claims are being denied uh you know really important things that they need people ordering wheelchairs and and oxygen and all of those different things and in addition to the hospitals not being able to be paid so this is a major major issue and as you heard in the report one in three people are affected by this so i don't think the media is talking enough about this on like what's actually happening uh you know with this result of this cyber attack and russia you know being the one
Starting point is 00:35:21 that implemented this you guys you and jess talk about that movie all the time i haven't watched it yet yeah i'll leave the time to watch it but wasn't this the kind of part of what you guys talked about and these cyber attacks and attacking the healthcare system was that also part of it absolutely you um you didn't watch that yet i haven't watched it i'm gonna make sure i watch because you guys mention it all the time just having that time to check it out definitely watch it yeah everybody need to watch the whole country need to watch the movie yeah i mean listen there's really nothing we could do at this point because we're too reliant on computers we live in a digital world and it makes us vulnerable to things like this like that's an attack on the health care system what happens when you go to your bank account one day and see zero dollars in there what do you think that's going to
Starting point is 00:35:59 cause in this society and and nobody in this society is going to have compassion bill collectors going to still want their money and all hell is going to break loose watch it's a matter of time jesus damn well that is front page news thank you tears absolutely and make sure you follow at tesla figaro on all social media platforms and subscribe to tesla figaro's podcast it's great shot no chaser podcast on the black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network.

Starting point is 00:36:58 I'm glad to be here. I'm glad to be here. I'm glad to be here. Ocho, you're like a cultural icon in a way, man. You think so? Yeah, from sports to hip-hop. Absolutely. And it's been like this for a while.
Starting point is 00:37:07 Yeah, and I know I never really viewed myself like that. I kind of just enjoy having fun. Regardless of what atmosphere I'm put in, I adapt to my surroundings and just act accordingly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's about it. I don't see it like that, though. I need you and Shannon. Y'all can't be looking at Jess like that, though.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Huh? It wasn't him. It was both of them. It was both of them. It was both of them. It was Shannon. It wasn't him. Yeah, yeah. That's my dog.
Starting point is 00:37:27 That's my dog. He ain't going to leave. Okay, okay. I directed it in the right way. Okay, okay, okay. Because I don't think Shannon understood or knew about my homing. Gotcha.
Starting point is 00:37:40 And so I kind of ain't really indulging it, but, you know, we good. He didn't mean no disrespect. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It just felt, you know, it felt like, all right, all right, all right, cuz. Like, stop looking at my sister like that.
Starting point is 00:37:51 That's why, you know, he said, I was like, I understand where you're coming from. And I just left it at that. And when you left it alone, it was left alone. So, yeah, there you go. So how's it dealing with Shannon Shaw, with all the beef that he's getting in right now? It seems like he's arguing with everybody. It's coming from everywhere. And I told Unc, I said, Unc, this is what we got to do.
Starting point is 00:38:10 We can't set a precedent every time somebody say something. Y'all get to get and apologize. We're going to have to make an example out of somebody. That's what Jeff told me yesterday. See, I'm telling you. It's one person. We got to make an example out of somebody. Because what's going to happen is people are going to see Well damn If he can come at him
Starting point is 00:38:25 And just say I'm sorry Then they squash everything I say no That's not going to happen Because now You see it's starting to be A trickle effect Now everybody
Starting point is 00:38:33 Got their little jokes So I'm off papers now I'm off papers now I'm off probation Right right right You know I be in the streets I'm like that
Starting point is 00:38:42 So my girl got insurance So if anything happened to me I told Unc, I got you. I'm going to be your enforcer. You know, Griselda had an enforcer. Escobar had an enforcer. For Unc, I'm the enforcer. It's whatever.
Starting point is 00:38:52 It's up and stuff. But you got to tell them, too, a lot of that does come with the territory. I know, I know, I know. You know what I'm saying? I think you understand that. Especially all these years. Especially playing football. Dealing with the media.
Starting point is 00:38:59 Dealing with the other side. Now, Unc being on the other side with the media. I mean, we do it to the players. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We do it to the players. do it to the players that's playing it ain't all jokes I don't think it bothers them because we've been in it so long I enjoy it I like the jokes
Starting point is 00:39:11 you look like you enjoy it I want you talking s*** about me I love what y'all doing I love seeing all the athletes that are controlling their own platforms from y'all to Cam to the Pivot to all the smoke I love it we need that because you got to understand us as athletes remember the mainstream media controlled how
Starting point is 00:39:29 we're perceived on the outside so espn and fox and all those were able to get out to the masses and try to tell them who we really are now we've cut out the middleman and we are the voice yeah we are the voice now and i think it's dope. Ryan, you are the CEO and founder of Community Media. Tell us about that. For sure. And again, we're excited to be out here, for sure. But Community Media, we're a media company based in Atlanta, Georgia, with the mission to basically amplify black creators, black gamers.
Starting point is 00:39:58 And that's actually how we got to link with Chad. Almost about a year ago, we were brought into an opportunity to create an experience at the MLS All-Star Game last year that happened in Washington, D.C. But what a lot of people haven't realized is that all the professional sports leagues, the MLS, the NFL, and the NBA, they all now have professional gaming leagues attached to their leagues as well. So we were part of the EMLS experience. We got to shoot some content with Chad, and that really started the conversation that ultimately led to him becoming our first first ambassador not only for community media but what we're building across the HBCU esports league and the HBCU gaming ecosystem as well so literally for us we throw live gaming events live concerts
Starting point is 00:40:34 working with major brand partners like Verizon, Discover, Nike, Hot Pockets, Mountain Dew and you really utilizing these platforms to provide other means of scholarships for young black and brown students. Nice. Do you think the HBCU should change the curriculum because a lot of them are real old school and i'm sure they don't have a gaming content where these kids are making millions of dollars and even youtube creators making millions of dollars hundreds of millions so the answer is yes so like up until 2020 this didn't exist in the hbcu ecosystem like it was brand new so the, the curriculum development, the internship opportunities,
Starting point is 00:41:07 all that is now being put in place. Because I'll be real with you, our goal is not to sell hoop dreams to the black community that, yo, if you get into gaming, you will make a million dollars because that's very few and far in between. But you can get a decent job. You can have a nice paying job
Starting point is 00:41:19 doing something that you love to do. But it's really about first and foremost, educating everybody, right? So that's why this opportunity for us is so important, because having that microphone to let people that look like us know that these opportunities exist is step one. Once that becomes a thing, I guess taking a step back, too, is really, really important to understand that like 30, I think close to 30 out of 50 states in this country also now have varsity high school esports.
Starting point is 00:41:41 So a few years ago, we actually partnered with the New York City Department of Education and we ran a tournament called the Battle of the Burrows in partnership with Microsoft, which was literally a Minecraft tournament to engage kids during COVID and like keep them engaged in their high schools. And like, so for us, it's like, yo, as this ecosystem is being built out at the high school level, it's being built out at the college level. What we noticed is that there was no black schools in general. There was no inner city schools and there were no HBCUs taking advantage of this. So it was like, what do we have to build? What do we have to create? Who do we have to tap into to like really build out this ecosystem?
Starting point is 00:42:13 So for me, we look at gaming the same way we look at football and basketball. You have high school leagues, you have AAU programs, you have afterschool programs, you have professional leagues, you have job opportunities. And that's the same pipeline that we're building and establishing right now across gaming now chad you had dinner with uh antonio pith the raiders coach yeah um and you tweeted that you were going to ask for a coaching job yeah actually i was gonna ask y'all for a job too i know y'all have an opening i know y'all can make some space just got it got filled no no no no no we can add we can add add another chair the more the better the merrier but i was i was in vegas super bowl i wouldn't had everyone just me obviously other people
Starting point is 00:42:51 whatever with mr pierce and having having dinner and i just tweeted out the picture with him and i just playing i'm playing around you know i'm a jokester about listen i finally got offered a job as a raiders coach and then antonio went behind me and said i can't wait to have you working with our receivers. So that's what sparked it. Like, I was really going, I can't coach. Really? Why not?
Starting point is 00:43:10 I have 37 other jobs. I have 37 other jobs right now, and I wouldn't have time. And coaching is really not my thing. You got a passion for football, though. I have a passion for the game of football and not coaching. I have a passion for playing. If somebody doesn't want to bring me back, then I'll come and do that. At 46, You would play?
Starting point is 00:43:25 I'm 56. Yeah, what I play? You ain't no 56. You ain't no damn 56. Be a joker. If you 56 and calling Shannon Unc something wrong. You say Unc in general. I was born in 68.
Starting point is 00:43:37 What you talking about? Cut it out, man. Oh, my God. So that means y'all ain't do your homework. I did. We did my homework. You're 46. You born in 1977.
Starting point is 00:43:44 I was born in 1960 at a Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami. Oh, my God. So would you play the league? Would I? Yeah. Today? You can't even hit nobody. Yeah, I'd be able to play.
Starting point is 00:43:56 You can't hit nobody? Look at the rules. Look at the rules. Damn near playing flag football. You think that rules the game? You know what? The NFL is all about protecting the players.
Starting point is 00:44:06 But again, I see they're trying to add an 18th week. Is it really about protection? Or is it about the bottom line at the end of the day? Money.
Starting point is 00:44:12 Maybe we know what it is. Come on now. The players are getting bigger, faster, and stronger but the dimensions of the field have yet to change. So if everybody's bigger, faster, and stronger
Starting point is 00:44:20 it's only so much you can do in making the car safe. That at some point if you're driving 100 miles an hour, you're crashing into a wall. Regardless of what you do, from a technical aspect,
Starting point is 00:44:29 you're going to get hurt. The car is going to crumble. I mean, same thing when it comes to ballplayers. Do you think widening the field would make people safer? It would help. D. Lyman,
Starting point is 00:44:36 350 pounds, running 4.5. What? I've seen that the other day. Yeah, crazy. Why do you drive a Prius? I drive a smart car. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:44:44 It's one of the safest vehicles out there. Very cost efficient. Why do you drive a Prius? I drive a smart car. That's what I'm saying. It's one of the safest vehicles out there. Very cost efficient. I get 55 miles of the gallon. I get 55 miles of the gallon and I can park anywhere. People always make fun
Starting point is 00:44:52 of my damn car. But no, because you said it's smart. It is smart. That would make it more prone to, if you get in an accident, it'd be something bad. No, no.
Starting point is 00:44:56 It's one of the safest. It's been battle tested. Okay. That's why I drive it. And obviously, because I'm cheap as hell. I've been having that since like 2004.
Starting point is 00:45:04 Wow. All right, we got more with Ocho Cinco and Ryan Johnson. When we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Ocho Cinco and Ryan Johnson. Charlamagne?
Starting point is 00:45:15 Was you serious about, I think Dion wanted you at Colorado at one point? Or that was a rumor? Yeah, I asked him to come in here. Right now, I work for the Buffs as a recruiter. Seriously? Yeah, I'm just recruiting for okay I'm recruiting for Prime okay so you think he's seen you out just to talk to the players yeah he don't have to see me I do it myself actually I can't tell when he bulls***
Starting point is 00:45:33 I wouldn't lie to you I lie for you before I lie to you yeah yeah yeah so you do it but it's not official it's official because if I'm doing it I ain't doing it for free I don't do it I don't do nothing for free but he doesn't have to tell you already know who you should be looking at already bingo got you got you got you because we over there in colorado we're trying to beef up the interior offensively and defensively so i know exactly what i'm doing got you and and uh you made a bet before the super bowl that if the chiefs lost you would give up eating mcdonald's we know you love mcdonald's yeah yes i can't believe you ain't never got a deal with mcdonald's to be honest with you i own three franchises so i really can't have a deal. That's right.
Starting point is 00:46:06 You better flex. Thank you. You said you would divorce your wife and give up sex for the rest of the year. Yeah. Were you really ready to give all that up? I mean, I knew the Chiefs were going to win, so that's why I made such an extreme bet. I knew the Chiefs were going to win, that's why I made such an extreme bet. She was pissed, but I needed her to understand. You know who you married.
Starting point is 00:46:21 Sometimes I go out on a limb. I say some things that you're not going to agree with, you know how i feel about you we were good you see who won the game right that's right absolutely yeah i got the script you got i got the script you believe that when people say that the nfl scripted you can't script that man you got 11 dudes that no hell no it's impossible when you really think about going to the ufl no hell no how much they pay you said that you tweeted you don't even know what you be tweeting. No, I don't. Yes, you tweeted that you were considering playing for the Memphis Showboats.
Starting point is 00:46:49 I'd be in a moment. I'd see something. Yeah. And then I instantly tweet it and I forget about it. But the fact that you mentioned the UFL, I want to know how much they pay. Yeah, I don't even know. Because I'm trying to diversify my portfolio. Yes.
Starting point is 00:47:00 And my resume. And the fact that you won't hire me, I mean, I thought you were for black people. I thought you were for uplifting. I thought you were for uplifting. I'm trying to understand what's the problem. Well, speaking of uplifting, you know, your Uncle Shannon, he be, do you feel like he puts himself in a lot of these positions himself?
Starting point is 00:47:15 Like for instance, like him jumping out the car two days in a row. What was wrong with that? No, what do you think about it? It was cool. He's promoting his liquor brand. Okay. Promoting his congac.
Starting point is 00:47:24 He was doing a signing. He was explaining it to people. He's promoting his liquor brand. Okay. He's promoting his congac. He was doing a signing. He was explaining it to people. He's on the road. He has to fly here, fly there, do signings. And I like it. Of course, people trying to make jokes and enlighten every goddamn thing he does. Everything. And, ooh, my aunt is hurt.
Starting point is 00:47:40 He had two hit replacements. That's what I said. That's what I said. You understand? That's what I jumped to. Hall of Famer. He's been beat up. You understand? That's what I jumped to. Hall of Famer. He's been beat up. You know, technology wasn't as advanced as it is now.
Starting point is 00:47:49 So being able to recover from some of those injuries, it's tough. And he grown. He's tough. You're 55 years old and you got to run this circuit now? Like you got a whole new life in media? You're like, okay now. Always on the go. There's a microscope on him.
Starting point is 00:48:03 Obviously, you bring somebody on you because you're volatile towards everybody else. So they're going to be volatile back. I think you understand. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I own this. It's 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 Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country?
Starting point is 00:48:39 My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help. We still have the off-road portion to go.

Starting point is 00:50:18 what is going to come for you. 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.

I'm the host of a brand-new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus
Starting point is 00:53:09 nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Colvin. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise.
Starting point is 00:53:33 Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And you have to welcome that. And he's okay with it. I welcome it, too. I need people to come at me because I got jokes. Well, you got to welcome that and he's okay with it i welcome it too i want i need people to come at me because i like i gotta do something damn you gotta do something to put yourself to put yourself out there okay okay i don't i still don't believe you 56 he's not 56 he's 46 but one thing i've always liked about him is how i do like how frugal you are oh i'm cheating like i've learned a lot of ways of just being frugal watching you over the years.
Starting point is 00:54:05 That just started. That just started. No, it did not. Ocho had some cars. He had Lambos. He had big trucks. That was about 15 years ago. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:54:11 That was 20 years ago. That was 20 years ago. You got to understand the fruits of my labor, those were not bought with football money. That was from, obviously,
Starting point is 00:54:19 I own three what? Big battles. Bingo. So I'm not spending anything I'm using or my hard-earned money on the field the stuff i did off the field tv shows endorsements card signings and then you got to think those cars
Starting point is 00:54:31 you just named i only had for three years and got rid of them because i didn't need anymore my name ocho it was it was a it was a little bigger than anything i could purchase at the time so it made no sense visually visibly you know who i was no matter where i went so what the am i buying a goddamn limbo for that's right why am i driving a far that's right you ocho it didn't make any sense even though outside of the image you know when you're young you know you're trying to impress the women and the women have already googled what you're making so there's no need bro one day me and pete davis pete davison wanted to go buy cuban link chains and i i told him i said we don't need to buy real ones because i saw you say that yeah and so we went and got three thousand dollar gold-plated cuban
Starting point is 00:55:09 link anybody asked no questions your neck was green as a mother but anybody has no questions yeah yeah i mean listen man it's it's for one it's hard for people to move the way i've moved i've been doing this now past 30 years it's hard for people to move the way I've moved. I've been doing this now the past 30 years. It's hard because people, we caught up in the image. And looking a certain way becomes your identity. Driving a certain car becomes part of your identity. People focus on image and looking a certain way because I want to look like I got it. I just was the complete opposite and really didn't care what anybody thought. I wanted to ask you too, man.
Starting point is 00:55:42 You remember when French Montana made Ocho Cinco? Ocho Cin cinco oh yeah how many i you know what i have a problem i need it to holla at french for um my royalties yeah because i ain't getting no royalties can't even hit you up and ask you can he do that and it's not not i don't think you get royalties for saying your name right no i don't know i don't think so how many women offered you och Ocho Cinco? Because of that song. What's that on my left hand? This was back in the day. That's always so long ago, baby. He don't indulge. Yeah, I don't like that.
Starting point is 00:56:11 I ain't trying to start no argument. I'm going to have to deal with that when I get home. That's right. You're not. You can't say it. See, I tried to send him another marriage. I tried to send him two sexes. Like, he's not married, too.
Starting point is 00:56:20 By the way, all I said was offer. I ain't saying what you did. I don't move. Because offering, there's always something on the back. It is a catch. You got to think anything on the outside is always an added expense. Because there ain't nothing free. Even if they offering.
Starting point is 00:56:32 You got to give something to give. I ain't doing that. How'd you feel about the record? It ain't bother me. It ain't bother me. We all make mistakes in life. We all do. I picked myself up, dust myself off, put my head forward and kept moving.
Starting point is 00:56:44 Took responsibility. You got to keep moving. That's it. I ain't look back. I picked myself up, dust myself off, put my head forward and kept moving. Took responsibility. You got to keep moving. Yeah. That's it. And you look back. I've been fighting. I've been fighting that mountain I fell from ever since.
Starting point is 00:56:51 Fighting to climb back. We here now. I tell you what, you don't f*** up on parenting. Yo, I love the way you are with your daughter. Yo, I love this. I mean, you got one or two.
Starting point is 00:56:59 I have one on the way and then I have an 11-year-old boy. Y'all, man, I love it. I love it. I'm on, I mean, I have 11. You have 11 children? Damn.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Man, stop listening to them. I know 11 kids, man. Because you stopped listening to this man already. I got 11 kids, man. This man is an entertainer. So he was Nick Cannon before Nick Cannon, okay? I was Nick Cannon before Nick Cannon. I was future before future.
Starting point is 00:57:22 I know, that's right. You know, I've been doing this for a very long time. I'm not sure why I would love when they talk about fathers. I would wish they would lump me in there. You should be in there. I should be in there because I also have a lot of kids. And I'm hands on. I'm thankful for those I have kids from.
Starting point is 00:57:37 And they're really what makes this train roll, you know, go. Because most of the time, people that have one, just one, they're going through hell. And it's hard to find success when you don't have kids with the right people. Yeah. It's hard because they can make a life of living hell. Yeah. Living hell. And I do have 11.
Starting point is 00:57:56 Serious. All together. I believe you. You got 11? Nobody going to lie about having more kids. Well, I don't lie about that. So, what, you had three over the last year? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:04 Yeah, I'm working. I'm working. He ain't got no 11 kids, man. He ain't got no 11 kids. It says he had eight. I ain't see no 11, but... Well, I'm married,
Starting point is 00:58:13 so then I have to... Those are also my kids as well that are coming. Yeah. So, 11. And I'm working on 12 right now. Oh, that's right.
Starting point is 00:58:20 Yeah. Keep on multiplying. You want me to babysit? Yes, you actually can. You actually can. That's why y'all need to hire me. No, you to babysit? Yes. You actually can. You actually can. That's why y'all need to hire me. Listen, look at the position I can do here at Breakfast Club. Boom.

So I can start like that and then work my way up as the baby gets older okay then you give me a position at the chair like i want i want them in these chairs these chairs is nice okay so i work my way up the ladder but i just i'm trying to diversify my portfolio okay and would like to work here all right well don't move we got more with ryan johnson and ocho cinco when we come back it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast

He's not 56, man. I'm believing him. I'm choosing to believe him at this point. How can you still be so active in your kids'
Starting point is 00:59:23 life if you got 37 jobs. You got my kids, everybody in college, except two. My daughter runs track at University of Kentucky. My son is at Arizona State. I have an older daughter who's 26. Jakira, hey, baby, I know you're going to see this. My daughter's at Prairie View A&M. You know, little ones.
Starting point is 00:59:38 And then I have French Fry. French Fry is my little two-year-old. Okay. Baby Kennedy, Cha-Cha, her sister. And I need more. her sister And I need more Okay And I need more Yeah
Starting point is 00:59:47 One more kid I have time Okay I have time Yeah I have time Because I'm retired Yeah
Starting point is 00:59:51 So I'm trying to diversify That's why he's trying To get more jobs Yeah Yeah Okay I don't I didn't
Starting point is 00:59:56 I was so busy When I was playing I never got the full experience Of what it's like To be a father Got it Oh wow I was always gone
Starting point is 01:00:03 Wow Yeah So yeah Yeah You know what They canceled me one time And I remember this When your wife had her show or what it's like to be a father. Got it. Oh, wow. I was always gone. Wow. Yeah. So, yeah. You know what? They canceled me one time, and I remember this, when your wife had her show.
Starting point is 01:00:10 Uh-huh. Oh, yeah, they came. It was at your head, boy. Right, it was at my head. And I said, I was like, I feel like the network is not showing the sisters sell the houses enough. And then they got mad at me
Starting point is 01:00:20 and said I was coming for them. And I was like, no, I want to see more of it on TV. Right, right, right. They're just showing the beef and the drama, and i hate that they show that with black women but when they have the white women show they show all the houses they sold that's that great old show thing i know the wife said i said i'm straight and i was met and i was mad i was like they should show the sisters that's great right right well it's hard for me to set them straight i would
Starting point is 01:00:38 need her here i would need her here to be able to explain her side of the story but i understand i understand what you mean obviously they, they were selling houses. But one thing, if they were just selling houses, right, how many ads is that going to appease to? I get it.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Even today, just in general, you got to have some type of drama. Some type of something to attract. Yeah, I mean,
Starting point is 01:00:58 just in general and all that we do. So, like, even this, we need some type of drama. Somebody just say something. I wonder about that. Somebody say something. need some type of drama somebody just say something i wonder about that though up until recently i don't think y'all had a lot of drama on nightcap oh no no it's not even really drama y'all just addressing we know we haven't had on probation yeah i was i was on papers okay yeah we didn't i mean i think shannon and i we play off
Starting point is 01:01:22 each other and the chemistry is so goddamn good. We don't even have to do that. Yeah, people just like hearing y'all talk. Yeah. And then it's to see us in a different space that you never get to see us in and talk the way we are because it's like the barbershop, locker room in a way you've never seen us before. I think that's what is more appealing to the audience as opposed to it being any drama. I think the best thing with all of these platforms is showing that athletes are not dumb because there was always this stereotype dumb dumb job especially in football i think y'all was beyond shattered yeah most definitely most definitely ryan end up with some words man no i would say kind of just everything man like first being here
Starting point is 01:02:02 like everything we're doing across gaming music entertainment like talking about upcoming projects like the next big thing coming up for us we'll be backstage doing like all the gaming and artists interviews at rolling loud california so like we're just trying to continue to find ways to bridge the gap make sure that our people have a seat at the table make sure that they have the information to make their own informed decisions about what they can do with their own individual life one thing we always say like stick to the plan because like again you know with this yesterday we go here we learn about the relationship that y'all got with the saturday folks and the whole nine sort of like you know everything kind of works and builds on each other it builds on itself but like the main message we wanted to share is like again if parents aunts
Starting point is 01:02:36 uncles you have nieces nephews kids that are trying to tap into gaming you're telling them to get off the game we just strongly advise to change the message there's a space because there's actually a real space for it right now. I mean, within our league alone, the last two years, HBCU students have earned over $2 million playing in our league. So for us, we have kids that are earning six figures just by being a part of this. And sometimes these are traditional athletes. Like we have one kid at Florida Memorial right now in Miami.
Starting point is 01:02:59 He literally plays on the basketball team, and he's on their esports and gaming team. So he's on a scholarship for basketball, and he's earning money in this pathway. So what's interesting, like the HBCU community, the gamers are getting more NIL than the traditional sports athletes. So what games should we be having our kids on then? So the games that are mainly in this NBA 2K, Madden, Call of Duty, Fortnite, Rocket League, Mortal Kombat, Super Smash, all the games that you know as what you're playing coming up.
Starting point is 01:03:26 About Minecraft. Minecraft is a big one, too. That's what I was going to mention. We just did an entire New York City Battle of the Boroughs. We had 125 high schools across all five boroughs going head-to-head in Minecraft. And the kids were, the winner was tasked with whoever built the best New York monument inside of Minecraft. So it was a whole linkage between the gaming competition,
Starting point is 01:03:46 STEM based education. And like, that's really, really, it is like what we're doing. Cause like black parents don't realize it. Like, yo,
Starting point is 01:03:52 your kids are on the game, but they could be the ones making the game. Yeah. Like a big thing right now in Fortnite is this thing called UEFN, right? So Unreal Engine Fortnite, essentially. It's allow,
Starting point is 01:04:01 it's the same model they brought into gaming that exists right now in a music. So as a young black person person you can go in and build a custom level in fortnight you will get paid on the hourly play time that people are playing on your level and they will share 40% of the revenue with all of their creators so like yo I guarantee you someone in this room got someone that's playing fortnight okay well your son and his little friends they could be making LLC's they could and his little friends they could be making llcs they could be little friends yeah they could be they could literally be doing what they're
Starting point is 01:04:28 already doing every day right now and converting that into revenue game companies are then hiring these young people to then come build out experiences on their behalf but again like when we look at this the biggest divide of what we've seen is those who grow up with computers versus those who grow up with consoles so when when you look at just demographics, black and Latinx families generally play on Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo. When you look at the other side of the coin, it's computer-based games. The reason we've been excluded from this space, the big event that you're talking about, those are PCs. And so how are you supposed to get in?
Starting point is 01:04:59 How are high school kids supposed to get in when the schools themselves can't afford the computer lab to start a gaming team? So a lot of the work that we're doing is working with Verizon to then literally get the money to build the lab, to give the scholarship so the kids can then play in the league. Or not even that, Wi-Fi. Like Wi-Fi is so damn important. In a lot of these areas, they don't have strong Wi-Fi.
Starting point is 01:05:18 They be lagging. The kids be complaining. It was crazy. Our first major initiative was back in May 2020, and we literally did a stream of thought on Twitch. We had people like Offset. We had Jeezy. Michael Strahan was a big part of that. He raised one hundred and eighteen thousand dollars in 20 hours on Twitch. We took that money and bought devices, mobile hotspots and laptops for kids in Atlanta that were basically could not graduate high school because they didn't have a device because of distance learning. That's crazy. So I was like, that's so what what we're looking at like this whole thing of gaming and technology like it's really really not about the kids just playing the game yeah but what we realize over
Starting point is 01:05:52 the years like yo we really got to tap into larger voices that are known within media and know within sports that also have a very strong passion to like bring this to their community and so now we're going about it like a whole different approach yeah um so now like for us that's kind of like what's coming up that's how we're building this out and we just say like for parents if your kids are interested in something they're doing it every day we now live in a passion economy you can turn your passions into money what if your kid sucks not saying mine dude but it's not even about it's not even about it's not even about the being good or bad right it's about because again like i play games every day i'm not a great gamer but we run a media-based
Starting point is 01:06:24 business that's focused on gaming right so again i turned a passion into a profession and what we're saying is like yo how i stay in touch with my family i'm from columbia south carolina like 803 i'm from columbia so like the way i stay in touch with all my cousins is through call of duty so like it's a means of communication for us but i'm not trying to be a professional call of duty gamer but But no, what I can do is use the information that I have, bring that to a bunch of companies that are trying to touch young people,
Starting point is 01:06:49 trying to connect with diverse audiences, trying to build with HBCUs. I'm like, yo, let's just do this through a whole new league. That's dope. You really diversified your portfolio, Ochocinco. Yeah, I did.
Starting point is 01:06:58 Ladies and gentlemen, Ryan Johnson, Chad Ochocinco. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Jess, Larry, Charlamagne, the God. Back to the work week. Happy Monday to you and all.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Now let's get to Just With The Mess. Baby, news is real. News is real. Jess and Larry, Jess and Robert Moore. Jess don't do no lying. Jess is going to bring you numbers. Just With The Mess. On The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:07:22 I know they know the difference. Keep it a secret. Okay, so John Cena presents Oscar award naked. I can say he was a clown for this and that is true. Jimmy Kimmel hosted the Oscar awards. During the show, Jimmy Kimmel reminded the crowd of a moment that went like, not I guess whatever the word is viral for back in the day but uh streaker ran across the stage in 1974 he said it was the 50th anniversary of what was once the craziest moment in oscar's history and um as a parody of the streakers the streaker moment he did a failed
Starting point is 01:07:58 skit with john cena after the skit they presented the best costume design award. Just a little bit of audio from... Can you imagine if a nude man ran across the stage today? I said, can you imagine if a nude man ran across the stage today? Wouldn't that be crazy? Psst. Psst. Jimmy. What? What's going on? You're supposed to run across the stage. I changed my mind. I don't want to do the streaker bit anymore.
Starting point is 01:08:28 What do you mean you don't want to do the streaker bit anymore? We're doing it. Hey, stop thinking black people are the only folks that be cooning. Okay, don't nobody ever say nothing to white people when they get stupid ass stunts like that. I'm talking about that. That was stupid. They even they was mad at Janet for a little nipple. I'm talking about And this man really came out there Looking dumb Naked
Starting point is 01:08:49 Just naked Two nipples Two nipples right Both like Technically Not even caring Technically he really wasn't naked though Cause he's a wrestler
Starting point is 01:08:58 So wrestlers be half naked like that anyway I'm sure Behind that sign He had the little The little drawers That the wrestler be wearing You're a clown too Like I'm just It's just he had the little drawers that the wrestler would be wearing. You're a clown too. It's just the truth though.
Starting point is 01:09:08 It's like John Cena's a wrestler. Have you ever seen John Cena? You know he's a wrestler, right? I used to be a wrestler. Who do you think I am? I'm just saying. I know exactly who he is. So the stunt don't even work with somebody like John Cena because you're used to seeing him like that anyway.
Starting point is 01:09:24 When is the last time you saw John Cena naked, Charlamagne? He wasn't naked. I'm saying that he wears wrestling attire. You're half naked anyway with your wrestling attire on anyway. Okay, when you wrestling other niggas, yeah, but at the Oscars, no. You don't ever want to walk up there looking dumb because it was a whole dumb idea. It was a failed skit and it was just too much going on. During the award ceremony, Donald Trump posted a review of how Jimmy Kimmel was doing as the host.
Starting point is 01:09:49 Jimmy Kimmel took a second to read the review and clapped back at Agent Orange, is what he called him, number two. Has there ever been a worse host than Jimmy Kimmel at the Oscar? His opening was that of a less than average person trying too hard to be something which he is not and never can be. Get rid of Kimmel and perhaps replace him with another washed up but cheap ABC talent, George Slopinopoulos. He would make everybody on stage look bigger, stronger, and more glamorous. Blah, blah, blah. Make America great again. Okay, now, see if you can guess which former president just posted that on Twitter. Anyone?
Starting point is 01:10:31 No? Well thank you President Trump. Um, thank you for watching. I'm surprised you're still watching. Isn't it past your jail time? You know, they laughed, but Trump won that. He got you to mention him live at the Oscars. And a lot more votes, too.
Starting point is 01:10:47 That's free marketing. That was actually great. That's free marketing. Biden should have thought of that one. Never. Biden couldn't think of a thing. He was sleeping. He couldn't think at all.
Starting point is 01:10:56 That's free marketing. That worked for Trump. Listen, and it was, by the way, funnier than the skit with John Cena being naked with a speedo on, Charlotte. I'm just letting you know that. I thought the skit was John Cena being naked with a speedo on, Charlotte. I'm just letting you know. I thought the skit was corny too, but that's my whole point. The main reason it probably didn't work is because you're used to seeing John Cena half naked. Nah. They should have had somebody that you're not used to seeing half
Starting point is 01:11:16 naked. It would have made more sense. What do you mean half? Like, what? You must have never seen John Cena in a wrestling ring. All them wrestlers be half naked. Yeah, I know you love that kind of stuff. I told you. It's just common sense. Open your mind a little bit.
Starting point is 01:11:30 I'm with it. I know. But even at the Oscar Awards, you're still used to seeing John Cena like that. It's not something that you're not used to seeing is what I'm saying. Corey Jefferson, the writer and director of American Fiction, used his acceptance speech as a moment to beg Hollywood to give up and coming actors a chance. He spoke on how many people passed on American Fiction and
Starting point is 01:11:51 he eventually said eventually someone said yes and that led to his first Oscar. This is a risk averse industry. I get it but 200 million dollar movies are also a risk you know and and it doesn't always work out, but you take the risk anyway. And instead of making one $200 million movie, try making 20 $10 million movies.
Starting point is 01:12:11 Or 50, right, 50 $4 million movies. Like you can, there are so many people, I just feel so much joy being here. I felt so much joy making this movie, and I want other people to experience that joy, and they are out there, I promise you. The next Martin Scorsese is out there. The next Greta is out there. Both Gretas.
Starting point is 01:12:33 The next Christopher Nolan is out there. Okay, just shed some light on this, Charlemagne, since you have a lot to say. Please, shed some light on this. He's absolutely right. Salute the court, Jefferson. You know what I'm saying? Like American fiction didn't have the biggest budget, but, you know, it got critical acclaim.
Starting point is 01:12:48 He was nominated for a couple of Oscars, and they won for best screenplay. And, you know, he's a black writer. He's a black director. They have a, I think, fully black cast, if I wasn't mistaken. Eric Alexander's in that movie. A lot of people in that movie. So salute to Corey Jefferson. What he said was absolutely right.
Starting point is 01:13:02 Hollywood will spend $200 million on one film, but how about, you know, take $10 million and do 20 great films like American fiction? And since we're on the subject, how come Origin wasn't nominated for an Oscar? Drop one of Clues bombs for Ava DuVernay. Origins was fantastic, and they weren't nominated for nothing. Well, Craig, congratulations to Corey Jefferson.
Starting point is 01:13:23 Speaking of Oscars, Risa Tisa inspired movie just was dropping. They teased the movie inspired by Yup, listen, niggas in Baltimore don't play games, don't waste no time. It was inspired by Risa Tisa's Who the F'd That I Married TikTok series.
Starting point is 01:13:39 The movie is called The Wife That Didn't Know Who She Married. The trailer doesn't have an exact... Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.
Starting point is 01:13:58 It's 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 Ladonia.

Charlamagne, we give that down. Four after the hour, man. We need a brother named Mark Merchikoff to come to the front of the congregation. He committed a murder, but it's all the things he did after the murder that add on to him being donkey of the day.
Starting point is 01:21:53 All right. We'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking out the Breakfast Club. You get donkey of the day. You get donkey of the day. You get donkey of the day. You are a donkey of the day. You get donkey of the day. Yeah, you are a donkey of the day.
Starting point is 01:22:06 You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day, huh? I'ma fatten all that shit around your eyes. They want this man to throw them blows, man. They waiting for Charlemagne to top them gloves. Let's go. They had to make a judgement of who was gonna be on the donkey of the day.
Starting point is 01:22:22 They chose you. There's a breakfast club, bitches. Who the donkey of the day. They chose you. To the breakfast club, bitches. Who's donkey of the day today? Well, donkey of the day for Monday, March 11th goes to Mark Merchikoff. Okay, now Mark is from California, and he's being charged with murder. I know what you're saying right now, Uncle Charlotte. People get charged with murder every day, B. Yes, they do.
Starting point is 01:22:43 Murdering someone for no damn reason will always be worthy of a hee-haw. But Mark's situation is different. See, Mark allegedly stabbed a young woman named Claribel Estrella. Rest in peace to her. Okay, and when he stabbed her, he posted a video to Facebook that showed her dying. Let's go to ABC7 for the report, please. San Mateo police scouring an apartment complex. The details, nothing short of jaw-dropping. Someone online in Nevada witnessing
Starting point is 01:23:06 this. A Facebook video that showed a stabbing of a female. That person in Nevada immediately calling authorities Wednesday afternoon. Within three hours, officers located the victim in an apartment here at the Hillsdale Garden Apartments in San Mateo. Sadly, police tell us she was dead. The suspect, who police say also posted the video of the fatal stabbing, was Mark Metchikoff. He was located and arrested in San Jose two hours later. And I think exhibit A in the prosecution's case is going to be this Facebook video. The district attorney will likely look at making this a special circumstances case and could seek the death penalty. It strikes of someone who is looking for his 15 minutes of fame in Andy Warhol terms in just a very twisted way. This is a guy who is angry and clearly the stabbing itself made a statement
Starting point is 01:24:08 and I think he wanted to make a broader statement to society. J.R. Stone, ABC7 News. Oof, man, F stands safe, stay dangerous, man. Fry them, cook them, get them out of here. Satan is executive producing everything nowadays and all his demons got reality shows and they believe that we are all extras in their reality show and it's not enough for someone to want to kill you nowadays they want to broadcast their crimes to the world what scott bond said in
Starting point is 01:24:34 that news report is true folks just want their 15 minutes of fame by any means necessary but this isn't fame you idiots okay the definition of fame is the state of being known or talked about by many people especially on account of notable achievements okay keywords notable and achievements demons like mark don't get famous they get infamous all right the definition of infamous is well known for some bad quality or deed infamous means wicked that's what you are mark okay and what you also should have been is shot. All right, whenever I hear stories like this, all I wish is that that young woman had a pistol. So as soon as he pulled out his knife, she could have pulled out her firearm and blam, blam, sent that man to hell where he belongs.
Starting point is 01:25:15 Okay, I don't even understand how this human brain works. Okay, number one, to murder someone like that. And number two, put it on Facebook. Was you looking to get likes? And I bet you it's some stupid-ass, silly-ass, dumb-ass humans murder someone like that. And number two, put it on Facebook. Was you looking to get likes? And I bet you it's some stupid ass, silly ass, dumb ass humans who actually like the post. Probably started following his page. Go lock their asses up too. Because what the hell is there to like about this video?
Starting point is 01:25:36 And I will never understand how Facebook, Facebook, Facebook can let videos like this go up. But they will remove content if it's the curse words in the caption. They will block certain content if you're using the wrong music. They will block certain content if you're posting videos of copyrighted footage. But a whole person dying, their last breaths can just be broadcasted
Starting point is 01:25:57 for the world to see. At some point, these social media platforms have to be held liable for this kind of nonsense because the emotional distress that this would put a family through, having to watch their loved one take their last breaths via social media you don't ever recover from that kind of trauma but check it out uh everything i just said is enough for him to get the biggest hee haw but this past friday according to people magazine more than six months after his
Starting point is 01:26:19 arrest he is saying that his alleged confession was a creation of artificial intelligence and i for one am confused because he might be telling the truth but it doesn't even matter because during the court hearing he said verbatim that he did kill the victim but his confession was generated by ai artificial intelligence sir does it even matter at a time like this you put a video on facebook you said in the court hearing you killed the woman what does it matter if your confession is ai generated who cares the only way i would be screaming that my confession is ai generated is if i was innocent if i was not guilty of the crime i'm being accused of and someone made a fake ai generated confession and they said it was me i would be telling the world is fake but if you're already confessed to the crime and there is a
Starting point is 01:27:03 video of said crime that you uploaded to facebook what does it matter if your confession was ai generated some donkey of the days just sell themselves please let remy ma give mark merkachoff the biggest hee haw hee haw you stupid mother are you dumb all right well thank you for that donkey today, sir. Yes, indeed. Now let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. There was a video of LeBron James and two white women trending over the weekend. Just two white women?
Starting point is 01:27:38 For real? That's all they were? I'm going to tell them who the two white women are. If you haven't seen the video, LeBron looks like he's at a Laker game, and there's two white women next to him. One is actually the owner of the Lakers, and the other is... Kurt Ramos' wife. Yeah, Linda Ramos. She serves as the Lakers' executive director of special projects. Now, they're both in the video.
Starting point is 01:27:57 One is touching his muscles, rubbing his back. The other's laying on him. Man, you are putting a lot of sauce on this. That is not... How do you see him rubbing the back? I ain't see no rubbing. I other's laying on him. Man, you are putting a lot of sauce on this. That is not... How do you see him rubbing the back? I ain't see no rubbing... I'm showing just the video.
Starting point is 01:28:09 Is she... Is her hand on that man's back? Yeah, absolutely. The back, it was slit. She slid it down his neck. Okay. So I'm not making this up. I'm not making this up.
Starting point is 01:28:17 I just showed just the video. Yeah, we see it. So we're asking, what are your thoughts? 800-585-1051. Charlamagne doesn't think it's that bad. Charlamagne doesn't think it's bad at all. No, he doesn's that bad. Charlemagne doesn't think it's bad at all.
Starting point is 01:28:26 No, he doesn't think it's bad at all. I don't think it's bad at all. And then he also said, we don't know their relationship. What? My nigga, what? What are you talking about? No, I definitely knew their relationship.
Starting point is 01:28:35 By the way, if you've been watching the Lakers for years, that's how Jenny Buss is with all the players. I can show you, if y'all think that video is worse, I can show you worse videos of her with Kobe and Magic. It doesn't make it right? You just laying
Starting point is 01:28:47 on it, rubbing my back and grabbing my muscle? But let's discuss. Envy, Envy, Envy, you had a man that works at iHeart. I won't say his name. I don't know if he still works there no more. He slapped you on the ass walking down the hall one day. Charlamagne, we were just in the elevator with somebody who said some nice graphical things to you and you laughed in the
Starting point is 01:29:04 elevator the other day. What was the nice graphical things they said to me? Something about pull your pants down, boy. Whoa. Stop. Pull your pants down. What kind of party is this? What you talking about? Oh, we're talking about that's the person I told you to tell the inappropriate joke to?
Starting point is 01:29:18 Yeah. Oh, okay. See, that's different. But think about that. He said something to me, and I told you to say something to him. Don't say what you said either, but what you said was crazy. When I got him in the elevator, he was like, pull your pants down, Charlotte Mae.
Starting point is 01:29:34 Charlotte Mae was like, he stopped. See, I don't remember that. He likes that. Yeah, right. There's context to it, just like there's context to this LeBron video. Nobody slapped me on my ass in the Iowa building. Man, stop lying. You already admitted that on air.
Starting point is 01:29:45 You can pull up the tape. You showing off in front of Jess. You said... What male smacked me on my ass? That guy smacked you on the ass at Iowa. That wasn't at Iowa. It was at a club. Somebody still smacks me on the ass.
Starting point is 01:30:01 Was that inappropriate? If Dia would have saw that video, would that have been appropriate? Yes, it was inappropriate. Knock it off, man. Yes, it was. But let's discuss. 800-585-1051 is The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:30:11 Now we're telling the truth. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. If you're just joining us, we're taking your calls, 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 01:30:37 There was a video that was circulating this weekend. It was LeBron James. He was at the Laker game. And the owner of the Lakers and her friend was sitting next to him. And they're rubbing on his arm and his back and laying on him. And we're just asking, what are your thoughts? Charlamagne doesn't seem anything wrong with it. No.
Starting point is 01:30:55 It was nothing. I mean, both of those women married. Jenny is the owner of the Lakers. Kurt Rambe's wife works for the Lakers. They're 60-plus years old. Jenny is always overly affectionate with Lakers players historically, forever. LeBron came and sat between them, and that's how they reacted. That's like his play on.
Starting point is 01:31:13 Do you know who they remind me of in a way? Okay, let me ask you a question. You remember our beautiful Miss Anita that used to work at the front desk? Yes. Miss Anita used to do stuff like that all the time. Hug you, rub on your arm, put her head on your shoulder, all of that kind of stuff. What's the difference? It's so funny how he be finding any and every excuse for white people.
Starting point is 01:31:32 It's not an excuse. Yes, you do. How do you mean white people? What the hell does that have to do with white people? Miss Sunita is like... As much as I like the... Never mind. Anyway.
Starting point is 01:31:40 Miss Sunita is like... We call her mama. Yeah. How would you take Miss Sunita in? You know what I mean? That's like our mom. Bro, LeBron's 39. He don't call that other lady mama.
Starting point is 01:31:50 LeBron is 39. 60-something is Miss Anita's age to him. No, that's mama. Like, you don't know. Do you know him? Who? LeBron. No, I don't.
Starting point is 01:32:00 All right, then. Shut up. Never met him. You don't know. Take the call. I honestly think that if people watch that video and they see something wrong, that says more about them than that video. Like, why do y'all twist that up?
Starting point is 01:32:13 Like, why do y'all look at that and look at it and say, oh, that's inappropriate? That's not making nobody mad. She look like a mama. That's mama. Like, what is wrong with you? Mama used to work at the front. Jenny, but these women are 60 plus years old. This is like a nice down south grandmother who cooked for everybody.
Starting point is 01:32:30 How old do you think Mama is? Does GD Buss look like Mama? No, she don't. Don't matter because she used all that Botox and everything else. She's still 60 plus years old. Charlamagne just love white people. And he would defend them to the death. And that's just what it is.

Starting point is 01:33:42 About that video Circulating around with LeBron Okay Like I just told somebody Don't play with my son LeB. Like I just told somebody, don't play with my son. LeBron can't do LeBron. Don't play with my son. I don't care what y'all saw on no video. He been around them women long enough to rub on them.
Starting point is 01:33:55 He got enough money to rub on whoever he want to rub on. Okay. So LeBron was not running up. He was not rubbing on nobody. See how narratives get twisted? LeBron ain't touching nobody. She didn't even see the video. They rubbing on nobody. You see how narratives get twisted? LeBron ain't touching nobody. She didn't even see the video. They rubbing on the right one,
Starting point is 01:34:09 but don't come for my stuff. LeBron ain't touching nobody. Yes, ma'am. That's one thing about black people. They ain't got to see it. LeBron is, he ain't do nothing. That's our biggest problem, actually. We got Khloe on the line.
Starting point is 01:34:23 Khloe, good morning. Good morning. Hey, how you feeling? I line. Chloe, good morning. Good morning. Hey, how you feeling? I'm doing well, thank you. Did you see the video of LeBron and the two white women? I did. I just watched it. He's innocent.
Starting point is 01:34:34 You know how that go, though. White women love a black man. So I kind of felt like it was casual, but, you know, it was a little touchy-feely, but nothing out of context. I think that was just, you know. She just said, like, two different things. I mean, he's innocent. They was a little touchy-feely, but nothing out of context. They was.
Starting point is 01:34:51 The women were touchy-feely. He's innocent, though. Black men don't cheat. That's right. Black men don't cheat. But how did this even get on LeBron? Nobody ever said anything about LeBron touching these women? Nah, nah, nah.
Starting point is 01:35:02 That was Ms. Tonya the last time. Somebody told her that. When it go from mouth to mouth to mouth, you know people add stuff on, take stuff out. But not. Like I said, LeBron didn't do anything. He didn't. You're right. He did nothing. He didn't do anything to stop it. He didn't get up. Matter of fact, he went over there and sat
Starting point is 01:35:18 down. We had them little shades on and all that. Like he was saying some things, you know, that was making him do that more. So I don't know. He didn't do nothing. And maybe that's the problem that he didn't do anything i don't think so jess you know why i say that because lebron's the man of a certain caliber so i kind of feel like if he's in a in an uncomfortable situation he'll remove himself out of it just from looking so he was comfortable with the feels right so he was comfortable with the yeah yeah they probably have a friendship outside of that. Duh!
Starting point is 01:35:48 It's the owner of the organization and another woman who works for the organization. It's not two random white women rubbing all over LeBron. First of all, if you know anything about LeBron, we reported this story way, way back in the day. And I think he still does this. He don't even take pictures with random women because he don't want things to be
Starting point is 01:36:04 misconstrued. You don't remember that, Envy? Yo, this massive mentality he got. Yo, this is not just two random whites. This is the owner of... I don't know where you're getting this massive mentality from, but this is ridiculous. Because you're not listening.
Starting point is 01:36:19 You're not listening. Yeah, and I can't wait to see him come in here with two black eyes again because Jess took it to his head. I can't wait to see him come in here with two black eyes again because Jess took it to his head. I can't wait. I don't know what you're talking about. What are we talking about? You remember that story on Envy, right, where he didn't even take pictures
Starting point is 01:36:35 with you if he don't know you? Yeah, that was a long time ago. I think he takes pictures now, but I think back then he didn't take pictures with anybody. Because he didn't want the blogs to misconstrue things, but he knows these two women. This is the owner of the Lakers and a woman who works for the organization. I understand all that. I just don't think it's right
Starting point is 01:36:51 that they was feeling up on that brother like that. Yo, he keeps saying it. I think he should go to Human Resources this morning. He keeps saying it like it matter who it is. Because it does matter. Listen, it does matter. All right, I'll give you another example. The other day, Jess, I i came up to you i put my arm around you and i said i love you right yeah and you leaned into me but we know each other i ain't like you squeezed i was like

It's even bothering her. You know what I'm saying? It's, like, it's toxic.
Starting point is 01:53:58 Social media can be a very, very dark place. I wonder why she just ain't turned the comments off, though. Like, if you don't want to see, like, because you can still post. You know, you post your pictures. You post your music. You post your toys and all that. You just turn your comments off. Some people you don't want to see like just like because you can still post you know you post your pictures you post your music you post your toys and all that you just turn your comments some people can't stay away though yeah some people just can't stay away you have to take it off like you have to take it off like remember when megan called up here and to you know announce his and everything and you told her look megan stay out the comments don't you know and she said i don't even have social media on my phone sometimes people just need to do that yep um yeah Yeah, I know my son,

I really would love to know how. I'm not saying this is not true, but I want to know how. I'm not saying it's not true either. I'm just saying I don't really believe it. You know what I mean? I need him to explain that to me. Because his highest year in the league, he got paid $5 million. So he made over $5 million for the Cat Williams interview.
Starting point is 01:55:12 I want to know how, too. Because it couldn't have been through no YouTube ad revenue. So I want to know how he, if he made over $5 million from that interview, I just want to know how. That's all. Yeah, that is crazy. Offset speaks on relationship with Quavo.

Starting point is 01:58:06 I don't think. Absolutely. Absolutely. So we're kicking this week off with Ellen DeGeneres. And here are some amazing facts about her. She's an American comedian and television host known for her quirky humor. A lot of people didn't know but Ellen actually started off as a
Starting point is 01:58:22 stand-up comedian which is why I resonate with her. Performing in clubs across the United States, Ellen also came out as a lesbian on her sitcom Ellen in 97. Paving the way for the LGBTQ community and on mainstream television. The talented talk show host has been recognized for her outstanding work on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, receiving multiple Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Talk Show Host. Ellen has also authored several books that I know Charlamagne read, including her memoir, Seriously, I'm Kidding,
Starting point is 01:58:54 and a series of children's books. I love that. Didn't even know that, but I love that. So she got some children's books out there. Ellen is actively involved in various charitable causes and has donated generously to organizations supporting education, disaster relief and human rights. And in 2016, Ellen was honored with the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Barack Obama for her contributions to entertainment and activism. So she's a very, very important staple in the community and in this world.
Starting point is 01:59:23 So shout out to the number one stud of the week, Ellen DeGeneres, y'all. Now, Jess, I hate that you had to read all of that just now, right? But I just looked up what a stud is, and I just don't want there to be no problems. They say studs can only be black. That's not true. I don't know. I don't know if it's true or not. I'm just saying it's defined as a black masculine Identifying lesbian
Starting point is 01:59:46 And it says Not all black masculine Identifying lesbians Consider themselves studs But all studs Are most certainly black It says stud is racially specific Because it was created
