I knew it was a bomb the second that it exploded. I felt it ripped through me.
In season two of Rip Current, we ask, who tried to kill Judy Barry?
And why?
They were climbing trees and they were sabotaging logging equipment in the woods.
She received death threats before the bombing.
She received more threats after the bombing.
I think that this is a deliberate attempt to sabotage our movement.

That's how I want to start the goddamn morning, okay?
Man, man, that is hit so hard when the first come on.
I wanted to feel like Red Bull and cocaine in the morning.
Damn.
All right.
It's the world's most dangerous morning show The Breakfast Club.
Shalameen, the guy, DJ, NV. Jess, Alarious.
It's time for Front Page News with Mimi Brown.
Good morning, Mimi Brown.
Good morning. Good morning.
Good morning. Good morning. Good morning.
Good morning.
All right, so we start this morning in Washington.
We're after 43 days, the federal government is officially back open.
The longest shutdown in U.S. history is now over.
Late last night, President Trump signed
the funding bill from the Oval Office, ending six weeks of disruption that left federal workers without pay, stalled travel, and delayed everything from food benefits to preschool programs.
Now, the House passed the bill 222 to 209 after hours of tense debate.
Two Republicans voted against the bill. Six Democrats voted with the GOP to open the government.
Now, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, he took to the floor saying the fight is not over.
let's listen. House Democrats will continue to fight to address the health care crisis that Republicans
have created. Only two ways, Mr. Speaker, that this fight will end. Either Republicans finally
decide to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits this year or the American people will throw
Republicans out of their jobs next year and end the speakership of Donald J. Trump once and for all.
That's how this fight ends.
For once, he's right.
Okay, for once, A PaxiCorps is correct.
Well, Speaker Mike Johnson, in his speech after the vote, he called the shutdown pointless and cruel,
saying the priority is now getting federal workers paid and the government running.
Let's listen to what he had to say.
I want to say that all this was utterly pointless and foolish.
This outcome was totally foreseeable.
I said that this would be the outcome when all this began back in mid-September.
they did it anyway.
They got nothing for their selfish political stunt here.
They didn't achieve anything with this at all.
And anyone who studied history would know that shutdowns never yield any positive result.
Listen, man, God bless all the federal workers.
I'm so glad that you all are about to get paid again.
God bless all the food programs.
I'm glad that people are going to get their food aid.
I know it's been rough the past 40 days, but we could get back to some sense of normalcy.
Like I don't care about either political party.
I care about the people.
And God bless them in their recovery because now they got to play catch up.
You know what I mean?
It's the aftermath of what's going on.
That's right.
Yeah, they definitely have to play catch up.
But here's what all of this means for the American public.
As you just mentioned, Charlemagne, hundreds of thousands of federal workers, they will return
back to work within days.
Some, in fact, have been told to report today.
They will get back pay for all 43 days.
Food benefits will restart.
States will begin loading those snap cards again.
But there could still be some delays.
as the system catches up from the backlog.
At head start and preschool programs,
classes will reopen as early as today.
And agencies that handle passports,
visas, and air traffic security
that will ramp back up,
which should ease some of those delays
at the airport, parks that have been closed.
They will be operating now again
throughout the week.
They're expected to open back up.
Now, we heard from President Trump,
who also signed that bill at 1030 last night.
He was surrounded by Republican lawmakers
and business leaders.
He also used the moment to point the finger at Democrats.
Let's hear what he had to say.
This is no way to run a country.
I hope we can all agree that the government should never be shut down again,
again, end the filibuster, terminate the filibuster.
It'll never happen again.
So with my signature, the federal government will now resume normal operations,
and my administration and our partners in Congress will continue our work to lower the cost of living,
restore public safety, grow our economy, and make America affordable.
again.
Yeah, you know, I disagree
with, you know, Mike Johnson and President Trump
when they say that, you know, what Democrats did was a
political stunt. Like, I think that, you know, Democrats
threw a hell marry on behalf of the
American people because folks are going to lose health care.
Folks, health care premiums are going to, you know, go
up. I think they had to try something
and they did. It didn't work.
But Kent knocked them for trying, but
I'm glad that, you know, federal workers
are getting back to business. I mean, then
they finally show a little bit of fight.
You know what I'm saying? Like, all right, like, they
they stood since it was down, you know.
Yeah. Yeah.
And they bought the healthcare crisis to the front and center, right?
I mean, America's health care crisis needs to be fixed.
They can blame each other, but it still does need to be fixed.
And so this funding bill only lasts through January 30th, and we could be here again.
So in between there, they need to try and figure out something.
But on top of the health care crisis, the government shutdown creates about two or three more other crises, you know what I mean?
Because federal workers aren't getting paid.
You know, people aren't getting their food benefits.
So it's just a whole bunch of crises going.
on. Right. And
turning to another crisis on
Capitol Hill. Damn, me, me. Another one.
There's another one. But this one,
this one, you know, Jess, we're going to see what
happens with this. And this one is the Jeffrey
Epstein files, right? So
the house is now locked in for a vote
to release those long sealed records. That was
after the Rep. Alida
Gravalda, she was born in. She
immediately became the 218
signature needed to force that action.
So her signature set off a rare
discharge position, which guaranteed
a vote will happen within our speaker, Mike Johnson.
He said that he will bring that bill to the floor next week instead of waiting until December.
So at the same time yesterday, the House Oversight Committee,
they released more than 20,000 pages of new Epstein documents and some of those files.
They included Donald Trump or Epstein pitching stories to New York Times reporters.
They also included Donald Trump or Epstein saying that there's no, there's photos,
of Donald Trump with girls in bikinis in his
kitchen, although there is no evidence
of those photos. Epstein
also urged a reporter if
they wanted a photo of Donald Trump
walking into a glass door
or watching women in Epstein's pool,
something like that, absolutely. But again,
Charlemagne, none of these claims
have been independently verified.
These are just
what the
purportedly what the
20,000 emails that they release or
20,000 pages that they release show
there's also messages from author Michael Wolf during the
2026 campaign so we'll see the White House though they are pushing back
they're accusing Democrats of releasing emails that shape
the narrative tying Trump to Epstein so we'll see what that looks like
that bill is headed to the floor next week speaker Mike Johnson said that he will
take that up and so we will see what happens if those files do get released
if they do unclassified Epstein files that we've been waiting for
could actually hit the public yeah that's what that's what people need
people actually need to see visuals.
I don't know if transcripts are going to hit like folks want them to
because people don't read, 20,000 pages transcripts.
Y'all don't have to go through that and get the most juiciest parts
and create some AI visuals to go with them
for people to actually really take into information, something.
Yeah, so we will see that.
Coming up at 7, we're going to talk about TSU in Texas.
We'll tell you more about why they think that the state
is trying to take over that HB.
Word. All right. We'll do that when we come back. But right now, it's time for get it off your chest.
1-800-5-85-105-1. If you want to call up and tell us why you're blessed, you can do that.
If you want to call up and tell us why you're stressed, you can do that too.

Your shoes going to be on tied,
and you're going to slip up,
and I'm going to be there to catch you.
And he'll go, Lauren,
with another dumb line.
And I'm going to be there
to catch him when he falls.
Period.
I don't hit the ground
as long as I'm next to him.
I do respect the fact
that you didn't want a big three
though.
You know what I'm saying?
What's your man?
Shut up.
Because she already got a little tag team
back again so she don't need
a third.
Can we please retire to tag team
conversation?
I don't tag team anything.
I am a one man,
a woman,
happily.
And her man be mad,
Shalamey,
like when you say that
so when he see you,
you're going to run down.
I can't wait.
And I'm going to be there
to show him the videos.
I got two videos
in my phone right now to back up what I'm been talking
about. Okay, and I don't know if one is him
or not, but he'll, he'll be like, no, that's me, but I don't
know this other. Now, if he said he don't know either one,
you're in trouble. Oh, wow. You're in trouble.
Big three. Okay. Now it's time
for the latest with Lauren. Good morning, Lauren, LaRosa.
Good morning. Yes, it's time for the latest.
Kanye West might be
going to jail. We're going to talk about it.
We're going to get into it. We're going to talk
about. There's been a lot of things happening.
That's why he was apologizing the other days of the jury people.
Oh, listen. We're going to
I want to talk about some things, okay?
Wow.
All right, I can't wait to hear this one.
It's the world's most dangerous morning show The Breakfast Club.
The Breakfast Club.
Lauren becoming a straight bad.
Tell her, man.
She gets him from somebody that knows somebody.
She gets the details.
I'm the whole girl that knows a little bit about everything.
She'd be having the latest on this.
The latest with Lauren La Rosa.
Sometimes you have facts, sometimes she have details,
sometimes she have a little bit everything.
Well, it's the latest.
On the breakfast club.
to me. L.L. Kubei.
Good morning, guys. What's up, boo?
What's going on with Kanye?
So, look, Kanye West is set to perform in Brazil,
and there is a city there, Sao Paulo.
I've been practicing. I know I still got that wrong.
I know you got that wrong.
What was it?
Sao Paulo.
Okay. We'll look it up.
Yeah, so anyway, yeah, so there's a place in Brazil
that is telling Kanye West that when he comes there,
he's set to perform there on November 29th,
that if he leans into anything Nazi,
whatsoever they will throw him in jail.
So they did this.
It's a councilwoman who was leading in charge.
She did that through an official complaint
that she filed, which she filed on Tuesday.
And within that complaint,
there are strict orders to arrest Kanye West
if he performs his Hail Hitler track.
And they also, the prosecutor,
they're also put in some ruling
that bans any swastika t-shirts
or Nazi symbols of any kind
or any type of merch whatsoever
because you guys remember he was
selling those things as well.
The mayor over there said that
police will arrest Kanye West
or anyone who makes an apology
for Nazism
as in anyone who justifies
the idea, ideology.
Police will have a team of officers
on standby just in case things go haywire.
Kanye West and his team could be charged
with crimes of racism and collective
moral damages. They're even taking it as far as
the promoters of the show could
also face arrest for a mission
if omission, if they
if Kanye West doesn't fully comply
and, you know, last week
Kanye West sat down with the rabbi
and apologized, we have that audio.
I feel really blessed to be able to sit here
with you today and just take accountability.
I was dealing with some various issues
together with bipolar also
and so it would take the ideas I had
and hadn't taken them to an extreme
where I would forget about the protection
of the people around me and myself.
You know, people aren't that knowledgeable,
back the bina the cause or what causes it and the way you act when you have this disease
and it's a it's a big deal for me as a man to come and take accountability for all the things
that i've said and i really just appreciate you embracing me with open arms and allowing me to
make amends and this is beginning in the first steps and the first break by break to dills
to build back the strong walls why can you sound like that yeah i'm sitting there i didn't it took me a
I didn't even realize that was Kanye talking.
Maybe because he's sitting with a rabbi.
He's very, like, stoic or something.
I don't know, monoton.
I think that might have been a Kanye clone, guys.
Yeah, that didn't sound like him at all.
And then why they start talking in the middle of his apology?
No, there's a translator there who is translating.
Yeah, there's a translator there who's translating between the rabbi and Kanye West at the same time.
So that's what you guys heard.
By the way, everything, you said that's Brazil, right?
Yes.
Everything Brazil is on is completely understandable.
I get it.
I wish we did stuff like that in America.
You show any open racism, any form?
of white supremacy. You get your ass locked up.
That would be great. The problem with Kanye
historically is when you tell him
what not to do, he often
rebels on purpose. Yeah.
They're not going for you being bipolar in Brazil. I'm telling
you that right now, Kanye. They don't told you what time
it is. It's like that left part of the brain
be fighting that right part, but it's a lot
of people's freedom riding on what come out of this man
mouth. Well, I also will say, too,
there's been a lot of conversation about
because when the apology popped up last week, people were
like, well, why is he randomly doing this? And then
all of the there's like these show dates and all these things that drop so people feel like
you know this is all strategy uh so it's course it is right but so it'll be telling
the rich russians falling out of windows podcast is back sad oligarch season two since we left
you in 2023 after season one many politically motivated russian millionaires have continued
to die in suspicious circumstances we dig deeper into these odd deaths which include
everything from mushroom poisoning and mysterious heart attacks to window clumsiness and suicide
by decapitation. One thing we have found since we started back in 2022 is the information on the
suspicious deaths has become much harder to find. Not just that, it seems as if state-controlled
media in Russia is being utilised to purposely confuse and contradict the reporting that gets put out.
As you can probably imagine, season two gets very weird.

Hey, I'm Nora Jones, and I love playing music with people so much that my podcast, called Playing Along, is back.
I sit down with musicians from all musical styles to play songs together in an intimate setting.
Every episode's a little bit different, but it all involves music and conversation with some of my favorite musicians.
Over the past two seasons, I've had special guests like Dave Grohl, Leveh, Rufus Wainwright, Remy Wolf, Mark Rebier, Mavis Staples, really too many a name.
And there's still so much more to come in this new season, including the powerful psychedelic duo Black Pumas, my old pal and longtime songwriting friend Jesse Harris.
and the legendary Lucinda Williams.

Do you remember the fear of combat?

This Veterans Day, the Good Stuff podcast,
honors those who've served and the stories that remind us what strength really looks like.
Had over 50 operations and had 23 blood transfusions.
It is extremely difficult to navigate the VA system.
I think what frustrates us the most is thinking about our veterans from World War II era,
from Vietnam era that don't have an advocate on the phone every day, all day calling for them.
These are things that need to be talked about.
These are things that need to be discussed.
We're talking about resilience, purpose, and finding hope through community and connect.
There are blessings in there as well that will happen in the most unexpected places.
You have to find the humor in it, or I think it'll literally kill you.

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

in order to find someone to blame.

And these three healthy games, he was the wide receiver 2 in fantasy.
I think Rishie Ryshe goes off this week.
The Chiefs come on a flip pass to Rice.
Near side, touchdown!
Remandry Stevens is my sleeper this week.
This is a matchout where I think I can slide in Stevenson into my flex position
and he could deliver double-digit points this week.
Drake takes the snap, hands it off.
Remodry running it right and running into the end zone.
Touchdown!

On November 29th, when he's there in Brazil,
what he chooses to do versus not do,
if he's going to stick to the plan
or if, you know, he's going to use this moment
to do what you mentioned, Charlemagne,
be Kanye West and do what he always says.
And he's going to be in jail.
And guess what?
Destiny is not a matter of chance.
It's a matter of choice.
Okay, in life, we all make choices.
They gave him a choice.
So if he makes the choice to perform the record,
he'll be in jail.
Yes.
I'm going to tell you what, this is a great story for promotion.
This is a great way to promote.
I know he's not promoting, but if that show ain't sold out, it's going to be sold out now
because everybody wants to see what I'm going to say.
The shows have been going crazy last week.
Yeah, because he had Travis Scott at one of his shows.
And I was, I'm not surprised because Kanye West, I think, is people are still in awe of Kanye West.
He's already been performing?
Yes, he was on stage with Travis Scott.
And they said Travis Scott threw some bars at clips, right?
and the crowd was crazy
like there was so many people there
like it was never heard that damn okay
I'll send it to y'all I forget what city he was
and where he was at but I can send it to you guys
I was more so looking at the crowd of people because you know
there's always been the conversation of is he canceled is he not
type of thing but I mean listen let's not act like Kanye West don't have the
catalog that he had in fact when uh you know and you know I love Jay Z
I'm a Pinkett Smith Winfrey knows Carter right
I love Jay right but when he said that nobody can see him
versus, first person that came to my mind was Kanye.
Oh.
First person.
Kanye catalog crazy.
I love it.
Don't get wrong.
I love whole catalog.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kanye and catalog crazy, too.
I want to correct myself.
So this was Travis Scott's two night.
He had a two night show that he did in Japan.
And he brought out Kanye West.
But when Kanye West was performing, the crowd went crazy is what I saw.
So correcting that.
But still, I think Kanye West will be able to bring out a crowd.
But we'll see what happens.
Because that news would have been bigger if it was in the States that Travis Scott threw a shot
clips that would have been bigger if it was anywhere here well speaking of big news in the
states eddie mary murphy has been running around promoting his documentary being eddie uh
and he sat down with extra and he told us that he wants to get he's open to get back on the stage
for stand-up let's take a listen yeah i'm open to it now right after the pandemic though i was like
i'm never going out there yeah you go out to show and catch covid i've seen a couple of comedians
I've seen a funny D.L. Hugo, I saw him up.
He was doing stand-up, and he fell out on the stage, so comics was falling out.
I was like, I ain't never going out there, too.
But that's all past now.
And now I'm open to it again.
And if it ever struck me that I could have some fun doing it, I'd get up there and do it again.
Just have to one day wake up and be like, hey, that seems like a fun thing to do.
Absolutely.
Well, we would all certainly enjoy that.
But it has to be fun for me.
I have to be having the most fun doing it
When I'm having fun
I've never ever ever once
Been having fun doing something
And it was whack after it was
If I'm having fun it's going to work
And it's going to be funny
And I have to feel all of that
If I get that feeling again
I'm open to that and I'll absolutely do stand-up again
Man I love that so much
I have no problem with a new Eddie Murphy stand-up
In fact I would watch Eddie on stage sitting down
I don't know if you all remember
That Mike Tyson Mike Tyson had a one-man play
back in the day that Spike Lee produced
and it was just Mike coming out on stage
talking about his life
and all the things he's been through in his life
and it was funny
and it was inspiring
I feel like Eddie could do like the same thing
like I don't need Eddie talking about
current events I'd rather hear Eddie come out there
and do a stand up about him and his life
and what he's been through. Right
I'll be waiting for that. I'd be right there
I want to see it in person if I could
and being Eddie is actually on Netflix
it is out now
it released yesterday November 12
so that's why he's been doing all these interviews
And it's a deep look into his life, his career,
features a ton of different comedians.
Chris Rock, Kevin Hart, Dave Chappelle, Jamie Fox.
So, I mean, it's Eddie Murphy.
Yeah, I'm watching that this weekend.
I need to watch that with a nice bottle of wine or edible, you know.
That's why I ain't watched it last night because I don't want to have to get up early to work.
And you mentioned, go ahead, Jess.
I love what he said, though.
He has to have fun.
Like, a lot of people been begging him for years, years, years.
Like, yo, doing another special, you only got one special doing it.
And like he said, it's very important that you have fun doing what you do.
do and that's his passion and that's one of his crafts like yo you got to have fun because
it ain't going to be whack if you're doing it for other people it might not go well you know what I'm
saying I'd like and I wouldn't compare it to nothing either like I wouldn't compare anything he does
now to raw or delirious like I'm telling you that Mike Tyson one man play would be a great
thing for Eddie Murphy I was well Mike Tyson has another special that he shoot and I saw this he's
going to be taping his Netflix special on December 14th but Mike Tyson who yes Mike Tyson I
You mean Mike Epps?
No, Mike Tyson.
He posted it.
I saw it over the weekend.
Return to the Mike
taping his new Netflix special.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
On December 14th.
I didn't know Mike had a first Netflix special.
You see what I'm saying?
You know, it's comics.
Comics out here fighting,
fighting for comedy specials for Netflix.
And they're giving them the boxers.
They're giving them.
Like, what happened?
When did he do comedy?
I don't remember him knowing comedy.
But that one man play he did with Spike Lee was definitely funny and inspiring.
I'd love to see Eddie Murphy do something like that.
Thank you, Lauren.
You're welcome.
We'll be back with more in the next hour, guys.
That's right.
We got front-page news coming up next.
And we got Mike Apps coming up this hour.
It's the world's most dangerous morning show The Breakfast Club.
You're checking out the Breakfast Club.
Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show The Breakfast Club.
Salamey the God, Jess O'Larias, DJ Envy is off the day.
The Throat Monster got him, so he don't have no voice.
But it's time for Front Page News with Mimi Brown.
First, Mimi, I want to salute to Audi Crooks from Iowa State.
I didn't get to watch the game last night, but I'm looking at some of the highlights.
Man, Artie Crooks dropped 43 points in 23 minutes.
No, 42 points in 20 minutes, actually.
That's crazy.
That's insane, man.
She had 43.7 rebounds, two assists in 20 minutes.
So salute to Aldi Crooks of Iowa State.
But what we got in front page news, Mimi.
All right.
Good morning, Jess.
Good morning, Jess. Good morning, Shalameen.
How are y'all doing this morning?
Good morning, girl.
Bless Black and highly favorite.
All right, so we're starting this hour with growing controversy at Texas Southern University.
That's an HBCU in Houston.
After state leaders accused the school of
mishandling hundreds of millions of dollars.
Now, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick
wants TSU's state funding cut
after the state auditor flagged
major problems with the universities
purchasing and contracting.
The governor, he then escalated things
calling in the Texas Rangers to investigate
even though the audit isn't finished.
Now, the auditor says TSTU
processed more than 282 million
in invoices tied to
expired contracts and another
8,000 invoices worth of about
158 million dated before
the purchases were even made. She says TSU didn't follow procurement rules and plans to meet with
the university officials this week, but TSU says it has already made those changes, including
a new procurement system and is cooperating fully. And inside that TSU community, there's a
bigger concern, and their concern is whether the state is using this moment to push for a full
takeover or threaten the school's independence. The TSU is a standalone public HBCU in Texas. It's not
part of the UT or AM system, and that's made it politically vulnerable for decades. State
rep Ronald Reynolds says that the public, they aren't getting the information or the answers
that they need, and they're calling for more transparency. Let's listen to what he has to say.
I want and demand transparency because I know for a fact that many in the administration
want to see TSU place under a system. And in this heightened era of anti-diversity equity
in inclusion, anti-black and brown from the Trump administration that trickled down to Texas
and all over the country, I tread with significant caution until there's evidence that would merit
and substantiate these allegations.
So, Mimi, what's the why here?
I understand what the brother is saying right there, but why would they want TSU placed under
a system?
Money.
So, yeah, former TSU president, James Douglas says that, you know, if there's any real issues
that they need to be addressed.
But sending in law enforcement
before the audit is finished,
they feel like it's more political theater
than process.
So what's happening is he's pointing out
that the board of regions
so the people responsible
for the oversight,
they are appointed by the governor.
That's the same governor
that I said,
just sent in the Texas Rangers
who are, they want to investigate.
And so what they're trying to do,
what they think that they're trying to do
is take over that HBCU
and put it under state control,
put it into the AM systems
and be able to control,
the school and control the money.
And so they're saying, you know,
if that's the case, they want transparency.
They want to do an independent audit.
They want to see, you know, what is really going on
with this money for themselves.
They don't want to just trust the governor's people
and take their word for it.
So that's where we are. So this morning, student, staff,
and alumni, they are demanding answers,
not just about the audit, but about whether
the state is laying the groundwork
to take over this historic
HBCU.
Gotcha.
Yeah. All right.
So if you are an AT&T customer, you could be owed money for two major data breaches since from last year.
So AT&T, they have agreed to pay out $177 million, but you must file a claim by November 18.
So the company, they were hit with two breaches in 2024.
In March, sensitive information, including social security numbers leaked onto the dark web.
Then in July, more customer data tied to account numbers.
It was illegally downloaded.
it. So if your information was part of either breach, you may qualify for a payout.
If you were affected by both, you can claim up to $7,500, which is a significant amount.
It's only AT&T. It's not Verizon or T-Mobile.
It's only AT&T. You've got to be an AT&T customer, and you have to be affected by those data breaches.
So either one or the other, if you were affected by both, you can get a payout of up to $7,500.
To check your eligibility, you can go to AT&T.
data breach settlement.com
click submit your claim. You can
search using your name, your email, or your account
number. You can fill out
something online, a claim online, but it must
be postmarked by Tuesday, November 18th,
which is coming up next
week. And again, as you just ask,
it is just for 18T customers.
But if you are, it's worth checking because
that payout is significant.
You said $7,500?
Yes, $7,500.
That's better than the
stimulus check. Yes. Yes. Yes.
So it is, so it's like, I believe it's, if for one, it's $2,500.
For the other, it's $5,000.
If you were, if it happened to you for both, you get that $7,500.
Let me tell you something, Mimi.
I'm going to tell you why knowledge is power, because you just gave that information out.
There's a bunch of people who didn't know anything about that.
And now some of them people are going to go to ATT, data breach settlement.com to see if they're eligible.
And they're going to get blessed.
Yes, they are.
Yes, just do it by November 18th, which is Tuesdays.
But you make sure that you get your money for.
out that forms.
Y'all got five days.
ATT, data breach settlement.com.
All you federal workers that's trying to get back,
okay, you're trying to get really back on your feet.

I wonder how long it takes you to get the money, though.
Yeah, that's a good question.
That'd be the thing.
Maybe there's a question-answer portion on the website.
I don't know, but definitely you want to get that filled out.
You've got to start to be able to, you know,
you've got to be in it to win it.

A fucking legend of icon, man. Stop introducing Mike Epps like he regular.
Okay, goddamn right. Then you said it, the icon, the legend.
And I said, I don't even know why he got so much going on out to check to see what he's up here for.
I'm not going to lie. I saw that they said Mike Epps was here for the weed in once, so I said, it's a typo from the last time he was here.
There's no way they're about to go back out again.
Again.
Sixth century
Going out again
Hey how y'all doing out there in the world, man
Breakfast Club, baby
We're on a breakfast club
I'll be watching this shit all the time
But you know
And I say to myself
I wonder when I'm going back again
Anytime you want to
You know what I'm saying
You did the first
You did the first skit with the breakfast club
We ever did
I did
Yeah she did
I don't remember
Remember when the girl was holding the food
He smacked the food out of her hand
Oh yeah yeah yeah
I never did get anything out of it either
I never did get nothing from it either
Never just got a check or a piece of cake, a bottle of wine, or none of that.
Is he on the wall?
Hell no.
Look how y'all trae me.
Nope.
Ain't on the wall, man.
But see, that's what I wanted to come here and talk about.
You know what I'm saying?
I wanted to talk about the neglect that has been going on with the breakfast club.
Talk to me, Mike.
No, man.
You're a legend.
You're an icon, man.
See, I'm ready to do like Birdman, Brian Williams on y'all right now.
All tree of you.
you too
you too yeah
go ahead
yeah
I ain't gonna say it no more
what we'd be doing
what happened
no I was just sitting there
watching all them clips
you almost got in like
several different fights in here
you say that's so nonchinalist
right
so articulately
God
I don't be worried
about that shit
I don't know it
but they was just
showing all the different clips
and everybody
that wanted to fight you
was like this close
Who you think
with one to one out of him and Beanie?
That was the craziest one to me.
They don't be the funniest.
I'll beat your ass right now.
They stayed in like
an arm's length of waiting for each other.
Right there.
Right there.
I've been in worst situations, man.
Oh, no, man.
That's just hilarious, though.
I'm like, damn.
What makes you want to go back out on the road so soon?
I feel like y'all just ending this store.
Well, you know what?
That's my thing.
See, that's the thing about me.
I never leave the people.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And that's because Hollywood is they don't trust me 100%.
Even now?
White people do not trust me, man.
And I've been working on it for years.
I don't they trust you.
I think you proved yourself.
Times 30.
No, you know, I don't know, man.
You know, I feel like I've always deserved bigger opportunities.
But I do be getting big opportunities.
Mike, you just did six seasons of a sitcom on Netflix.
man. I know.
What you're talking about? I'm greedy.
I want more. What is it that you
want? You sell out every show. What's bigger
than I want? Yeah.
I want, I really want, I want to be
in some more movies with white people because it means
money. When you see me
with a, if you catch me with a honky,
the money going to go up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But you know, when you think
about black, hunkies make your money go up. Go ahead.
I hear that name, that word in a long time.
When you think about black comedies,
not too many black comedians who've had
hit sitcoms. I'm talking about sitcoms that have
lasted more than five seasons.
Yeah, you know what I'm saying? There's only a few.
Like, you've got the Cosby Show, you've got
Sanford and Son. Right.
Martin. Martin.
Martin.
I don't even know if Bernie Mac did Bernie through five seasons?
I don't even know. God bless the dead. I'm not sure.
No, I don't know. But I've been
a handful. Yeah, I've been blessed
to do, I've been blessed to
still be in the business. And
that's how I stay in the business, man. I
never I'm, I'm, I wake up every day like I'm just now getting in it.
Like I'm, I never got in it.
I never celebrate myself being in the business.
I'm never bragging or, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm always a fan still.
I'm always looking at the business from a fan's eyes.
Like, if I look at the business from a fan's eye, I ain't going to never fall off
because I know what the fans like and what the fans want.
And I'm even judging myself like a fan too.
Like, oh, that shit ain't work.
Bernie Mac and Jamie Fox have five seasons.
You got six.
Damn.
That's a big deal, man.
The Wends brothers, I don't know how many seasons they had.
That's a big deal, bro.
It is.
It's pretty good.
And you're on Netflix.
On Netflix.
That's a big deal.
One of the hardest platforms to get on and to be successful on.
So shout out to all to Netflix, you know, for giving me a tear surrender,
giving me the opportunity.
and Wanda Sykes and Kim Fields, you know, just a great team of people.
And that's the key to succeeding.
You have to have a great team.
And nobody's doing this by themselves.
You know, when you see somebody successful, you can best believe it's a team behind them that helped them propel, you know.
Now, you're going back out on the road.
Yeah.
We don't one's comedy tour 2026.
You didn't, it feels like you just got off the road.
Right.
How do you get a chance to create new material?
Because usually they say material comes from living life.
That's right.
But if you're always on the road, where's the material coming from?
I mean, if you look at the news, the shit is just hanging off the tree.
It's just low-hanging fruit.
Every day it's some new shit.
And that's the thing about being a real comedian.
A real comedian ain't sitting there writing.
You're going to get it right off the cuff.
Just like you catch me coming out to both days.
Damn, Mike, what's that?
And I say some funny shit.
That's a real comedian right there.
We ain't got a right.
I ain't got a right.
I ain't got to write.
You catch me walking down the street.
I'm going to be funny.
Catch me at the drugstore.
I'm going to be funny.
You catch me wherever you catch me at,
I'm going to be funny.
And I just feel like that's what I do.
That's how I write.
And if you come and see me that night at the comedy show,
you're going to hear some shit that happened that day.
I'm talking about it.
Right on the stage.
And I'm going to make it funny.
You know, so I trust.
I trust my funny.
You were talking about the honkies, right?
Do you feel like Hollywood truly respects black comedy legends the same way they do white ones?
Or is that respect something y'all still got to fight for?
Oh, yeah.
We definitely, let me tell you something, man.
Any, anybody black in any situation, you're still going to have to fight.
It's a fight.
You know, I've never seen a race of people that, quote, unquote, are successful and still
have to prove
their self
never
I don't see
another race
that has to
still do it
and you know
it's even
harder for us
because we're
doing it
against each other
we are
biggest competition
each other
I was looking
I was at the
strip club
this was years
ago
years and he said
that quick
yeah but I was
at the strip club
why you look
behind it
and you know
your wife
can be
here with you
she got ways
of being
in this
like this
man
No, but, yeah, but I was just in the strip club.
I was just thinking to myself, man, these dudes are really in here competing with each other, throwing the money.
And they got another guy to come out, and this is just a scenario for life.
They got another guy to come out at the strip club and throw money.
And then after you throw your money, he collect all the money and take it back there to the girls again.
And that's what they, that's how they get you to throw money.
They say, yeah, they got a dude out there to throw the money.
That's how Hollywood is, too.
That's how our show business is, you know.
So it's somebody that starts it off and ain't even, you know, straight plant, basically.
Straight plant, you know.
Damn.
So you still feel like you're proving, you're working to prove things to people in your career at this point?
Yeah, because, you know, I was just, I was just listening to everybody talk about how bad of a movie that was that Denzel and Spike Lee just did.
Okay.
where A's at Rocky.
Right.
They was just talking about, yeah, it wasn't a great movie.
And I'm like, damn, literally when they were talking about it,
it damn near made you forget it that it was like, man, Denzel was in that movie.
Like, you know, it wasn't a great movie.
You damn there forgot about everything he did because you was focusing on the fact that it wasn't a good movie.
You know what I mean?
So one bad, one mistake in our culture can cause,
can cause people to not
with you, which is weird
as hell to me. I don't get it.
But what you said is true, though, man.
They catch amnesia.
But what you said is true,
we'll push the narrative.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, we'll go so hard
against each other.
Yeah.
And that's what, and that's another,
I mean, and, you know,
that's another reason why we're all great too as well.
We put the pressure that we have against each other.
It's crazy.
Yeah, yeah.
When I saw Mike earlier, he said,
Charlamagne, your elders is after you.
That's funny as hell.
The OG black political beat that's happening.
They want his ass too, right?
They want his ass.
They want his ass.
They want his ass.
But see, you got a platform that you guys have is unstoppable.
It's a whole lot different than coming inside of a church
or coming inside of a political arena.
You know, this is the real platform.
It's culture, real people.
Hell yeah.
You're touching everybody.
What's one thing that Mike Epps hates?
I know there's always a Friday question.
I know there's always funnier than who, who's not funny, past beats.
What's one thing you hate discussing and talking about that pisses you off?
I'm so tired of talking, I'm so tired of talking about people, talking about other comedians and other artists.
I'm sick of that shit.
She said, I got to erase some of my questions.
Well, no, no, no.
The only reason why I said that is because I'm like,
it's just running in a circle, man.
You know what I mean?
It's like, I ain't got nothing to say about nobody at this point.
Matter of fact, I feel fucked up talking about something.
I'm so blessed.
I feel f***ed up talking negative about anybody.
You know what I mean?
I don't have no room to say nothing negative because I'm blessed.
Now, if I wasn't doing so great, maybe so, but, man, I'm so blessed.
I, I don't find, I don't have no room to talk about nobody, you know.
You bought a whole block, man.
Yeah.
You understand, like, do you understand that's so many black people's dream to buy a whole block
in their community where they're from?
Come on, man.
I know, it was in Indiana, though.
I wish it was in L.A. or New York.
But you're from Indiana.
I know it.
I mean, way more.
Man, that shit is so boring.
born, man.
Why you do that to yourself all the time?
No, you know what, though?
You don't stay on the block? You sleep on the block sometimes?
Hell yeah. My son sleep in my room that I slept in when I was a kid.
That's crazy.
I love that.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
And what's crazy is people still getting murdered in the neighborhoods and the
who died in the alley.
And the block you just bought?
Yeah, the detectors is knocking on the door.
We didn't see your camera, Ms. Deft.
I said, oh, man, I ain't got no cameras around.
Well, you see the camera.
I said, don't know of that shit work.
but it just go to show you that
it just go
don't tell nobody that man
no it just go to show
no it worked but I'll you know
I get you yeah yeah
but you know
it just go to show you man that
nobody's paying
if I could tell some of these
stars some of these people
that are famous
nobody's paying attention
to your mother
f*** ass
that's another thing I hate
I'm like some of these people
were in delusion, like,
you're wasting fucking security money.
Ain't nobody
fucking thinking about you.
I wish I could just take a chart and just
show all the artists and just point
at them and say, ain't nobody think about
your fucking ass. Ain't nobody
think about your fucking ass. You can
walk around by your goddamn self
and save your security money.
You don't need no security.
People love you. Why do you
have somebody around you all the time?
Because I walk around this motherfucker
by myself.
I don't have no
fucking security.
You never got punched
in the back of the head, though.
See, I didn't got punched
in the head on camera, Mike.
Twice.
You up here calling people
the boo-boos?
Well?
Yeah.
Well, Charlemagne,
I think you,
I mean,
I think you're going to have
to do something.
What?
He got to pop that pistol
on somebody's ass or something.
At least once.
They got to know you
would do it.
Ficked the security.
They don't
got to know you will do it.
Once they know you will do that
You can walk around this motherfucker by yourself
Hell no, then you'd be like, look at this
n-knit through his whole life away
You know what I'm saying?
Because Mike has told me to shoot somebody.
Well, you ain't got to shoot nobody.
Yeah. But this is the
I just said that to say this
That most
of these people walking around here
That are in entertainment business
Just live like you're a normal person.
I agree.
Just live like you a normal person
So that you can enjoy this shit
because most of the people in the business
are just pretend all this shit is copied
I see the entertainers walk in with the
I'm like that's some shit he's seen somebody do
with the coffee in the hand
and the dude is walking
the guy got his hand on
what the what is going on?
That's that irritate this out of me
somebody's watching me every
five minutes to see if someone
going to do something.
I always say to myself,
if I was trying to get somebody,
I'm going to fuck him and that security up.
I'm going to both of y'all up.
I'm going to get the security first.
Because that's who's supposed to be protected.
Let me get this stuff first.
And then I'm going to get just,
so the security shit don't work.
That shit don't work.
I guess it keeps shit down.
But if I catch a my fucking,
I'd be talking shit with a security,
get your punk ass out of you.
Because once you go for security, the other one going.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.
Hey, I'm Nora Jones, and I love playing music with people so much that my podcast called Playing Along is back.
I sit down with musicians from all musical styles to play songs together in an intimate setting.
Every episode's a little bit different, but it all involves music and conversation with some of my favorite musicians.
Over the past two seasons, I've had special guests like Dave Grohl, Leveh, Rufus Wainwright, Remy Wolf, Mark Rebier, Mavis Staples, really too many in a name.
And there's still so much more to come in this new season, including the powerful psychedelic duo Black Pumas, my old pal and longtime songwriting friend, Jesse Harris, and the legendary Lucinda Williams.
Listen to Nora Jones is playing along on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
The rich Russians falling out of Windows podcast is back.
Sad oligarch season two.
Since we left you in 2023 after season one,
many politically motivated Russian millionaires
have continued to die in suspicious circumstances.
We dig deeper into these odd deaths,
which include everything from mushroom poisoning
and mysterious heart attacks
to window clumsiness and suicide by decapitation.
One thing we have found since we started back in 2022
is the information on the suspicious deaths
has become much harder to find.
Not just that, it seems as if state-controlled media in Russia
is being utilised to purposely confuse
and contradict the reporting that gets put out.
As you can probably imagine, season two gets very weird.
Listen to Sad Oligarch on the IHart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

This Veterans Day, the Good Stuff podcast honors those who've served and the stories that remind us what strength really looks like.
Had over 50 operations and had 20,
through blood transfusions.
It is extremely difficult to navigate the VA system.
I think what frustrates us the most is thinking about our veterans from World War II era,
from Vietnam era that don't have an advocate on the phone every day, all day calling for them.
These are things that need to be talked about.
These are things that need to be discussed.
We're talking about resilience, purpose, and finding hope through community and connection.
There are blessings in there as well that will happen in the most unexpected places.
You have to find the humor in it.
or I think it'll literally kill you.

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

Oh, nobody do that in the whole foods.

Don't follow for that.

You're gonna start streaming?
Yeah hell yeah
I'm gonna start streaming
I went on that little kid
What's the name?
Connette
Man he was a straight fool on there
And I'm sitting there looking at, I'm, I'm sitting on the streaming platform saying to myself,
how in the fuck is he getting paid when they had the COVID, when COVID went down?
We seem more together than him.
That's why he's working for one.
Because he's not affected by it.
He ain't on there trying to show you how much he got, how much of a bigger star he is.
He's just being himself and making money.
And that's what you young kids, if y'all watching the breakfast club,
You're going to make more money and get more success being yourself than anybody in the world.
I know it's people that you admire, but even if it's somebody that you admire that you really like,
you're like, ah, I kind of feel myself being like him.
Start hating on him.
I mean, shut the fucking.
Start saying, fuck that, my, I can't stand his ass.
Because he's influencing, so you got a hate on his ass to not be influenced.
What's going to be the, like, vibe of your stream?
It's going to be this.
Yeah, it's going to be this shit right here.
Comedy.
Whole foods.
Speaking on all, like, right now, all these food stamps,
they didn't cut these food stamps off.
I'm starting to see a lot of girls on dates that they normally wouldn't go on.
They got to eat.
Yeah, they got to eat.
They've been doing that, though.
That's a thing.
What's that?
You go on dates because you want to eat.
Like, people do that.
She used to do that.
You did that more?
First of all, I could feed myself.
Have you ever did?
I didn't it before.
You'd be like, I want to go here.
I don't want to pay for it.
This is back in the day, not happening now.
I'm great where I'm at right now.
You're getting money now.
You're getting money.
But you go, you don't want to pay for something.
You have a person you call and be like, oh, I know he'll come and pay for it.
So, wow.
That's crazy.
That's how to be.
So Sugar Daddies, if you're listening to this, listen to how you're getting screwed over.
They don't know what time it is.
A Sugar Daddy, though?
Oh, she loved going to an alumni party
That's her thing
At the colleges
She's like going to the old alumni party
I get paid to be there
We are not going to do this
Because my man is not going to appreciate this
I don't need to be in no alumni
You told me that one time
I love going to them old alumni party
You are alive
Yes you did
You went that little ball here over there
I love going to them old alumni parties
To them old men beyond me
You told me that shit
What do you get from an old alumni
He's lying
I don't know what he's talking about
I never said that
Answer for another girl.
What would a girl get from an old alumni?
The dates you talk about and whatever she wants.
So an old alumni, they graduated from college.
They're successful.
They got a little change.
They got a little change.
Them old college is cheap as hell.
They ain't get you spending money on you like a kid to get dope money.
I wouldn't know because I never did that.
Yeah.
When you talk about the upshall, why did the upshaws end, man?
The upshaws ended because the writers,
Wanda Sykes and.
the other lady Regina Hicks
they just couldn't see eye to eye
really you know the the lady
Virginia Hicks they both did a great job
first of all before I
go any further they did
such a great job writing
we had the best writing team
I mean man the writing team was incredible
but I think the lady Virginia
she had she had an agenda
that she wanted to push
with the show
you know and everybody
didn't agree with
it all the time you know
they wanted the show to go this way
show started off this way and then
it starts slanting then it went
over there and then it went over there
we should have just kept it right there
in the middle
might have did 10
seasons but I think it was about
in the writing you know I
can't mix somebody's personal
life with what's on
paper but what's on paper
and then it you know
whatever's on paper and then you guys
film it is what we see
nobody's paying
attention to nobody's personal life
you know when you say in the writing though
is it how they were trying to bring it
in what the stories were around
like the character like what exactly
in the writing is the issue
then though because her personal
sense has to come into her work on
screen not necessarily
she she played a straight
woman on the show
yeah but in but Wanda Sikes is very like
like
you're not going to make her do anything she doesn't want to do
anything she doesn't want to sit next to right
but she's an ally for certain
not even ally but like she speaks out openly about
being a part of the community yes but on the show
her character was a straight woman
and that's what she portrayed on
on on film on camera
but in the script
and that wasn't the issue with the script
that was just one
out of a million things that
you know I think personally
might have kept the show from going
I mean if you really want to think about it
the kids got grown you know
we really couldn't go no further because of that
the kids you know what I mean
the kids are you know that's what they do
on these TV shows when the kids get older
they cut the show off once the kids get
older you can't write stories around them
because it's like damn this kids are grown
now but like I said
It was many reasons why the writing at the end started becoming a little different.
We actually, in the middle of the seasons, we kind of lost it.
But then in the end, when you see this season right here, you'll see we end up getting it back.
You know, but it ran this course, man.
And then again, I'm thankful that I've been able to be on TV for six years.
But don't that frustrate you don't want two people, I guess, can't get along.
so a whole production goes down the drain?
Yeah.
Hell yeah.
And you know what's crazy about that situation?
I used to go to Wanda all the time and tell her, hey, Wanda, you know,
I need somebody for to fight for me in the Maroons,
because I ain't in there to fight for him.
And I've made it this far in my career being non-confrontational.
I let so much shit go.
I let so much
to happen
because it's not that serious
and I'm always looking at the big picture.
I don't never look at the little small potholes
because I know I'm trying to make it to the end of the road.
So, you know, a lot of my success,
I wouldn't even have it if I was,
oh, man, well, I got a problem with this
and no, y'all got to change this
and no, that's irritate.
Man, you got to go through life like whatever.
What means the most?
And all that little shit,
because the little shit stops you
You gotta not pay attention
To none of that little shit
And focus on the prize
And that's what I did with this show
You know, I always focus on the prize
I never went in the writer's room
I might have went up there one or two times
But if I got a script
And I'm sitting on the set and I'm reading it
I'll tell them in the hell no
I ain't doing that
I ain't doing that
Because when you're doing television
And you're sitting at a table reading
and you guys are doing a table read,
when you come back the next day
and you get on the set,
the script going to be different.
You're like, now, this ain't the shit I read
that's in at the table.
Because every night they go in there and rewrite.
So, you know, that's...
The upshall's always felt like it was written
from real life, so I always wonder,
like, how much of you, the man,
is hidden, and that shows, like, humor in the heart,
like...
All of that shit.
Because I think, I think at some point,
they started going on the internet
digging in my real life.
Damn.
We'll park.
All that shit.
And you watch the show.
If you watch the show, you'll start seeing all kinds of.
I'm like, damn.
And I got offended by that.
And then I said, you know what?
This is what's going to make the show good.
I can't get offended about something that's real and true.
Let them write it.
I stop getting upset about it because some of that shit is, I'm like, that's me.
I'm like, well, the shit is on the internet.
Yeah.
The shit is on the internet.
I fell out with my daughter.
The shit is on the internet that I,
had multiple baby mommas
the shit is, all this, everything you want to write
is on the internet.
So you can write a whole script off, just
Google Mike apps.
I wanted to know last Friday is happening.
Are we getting Chris Tucker back?
I don't know if we're going to get, they said Chris Tucker
Cube said he'd been talking to Chris Tucker, but I don't know.
I might have to run around and catch his ass
coming out of one of these Bible studies
and something to see if it's real.
But me, Ice Cube,
Aaron Magruder, and DJ Pooh.
were just together sitting in the room
writing this movie. This movie gonna be
crazy. Now you know when you say Aaron Magruder
you excite the whole goddamn internet.
Aaron, that's the creator of the boondocks,
Black Jesus, for people who don't know he's a
genius. Like that
that's something special right there. That's top
tier writing. Man. And I think that's
why Ice Cube went and got him because he's going to
bring that to the movie.
And not to say that we weren't
going to make it hot like we've always
made it hot, but
this is going to give it another extension.
on it. Aaron Magruder and DJ Pool
need to be the only ones writing that script.
Aaron McGrewder, DJ Pool.
Dang, he just took you off the writer team.
I didn't think about that, man.
Mike in there for the comedy. Like, like, you know how they'll write
and then they'll be like, Mike, punch this up.
What can I be honest with you? Nobody can really write for me
anyway. Yeah. They can write
some shit on the paper, but I'm going to say some
sh**s funny than whatever you put on the paper. That's right.
And I'm going to give you yours and then I'm going to
give you mine. And when you get in the editing room,
you're going to see which one was better. Hello.
You know what I'm talking about?
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, and that's how I feel about this comedy tour right here.
Ain't nobody comedy tour better.
And I'm headlining this year.
See, last, all these other years I've been hosting.
I go up for five minutes, six, seven minutes.
But if you really want to see a real Mike Epps hot 35, 40 minutes,
come out to this tour right here.
Hey, that's a fronting on you, Mike.
I was having this argument behind the scenes about you the other day.
They said, man, Mike just be hosting.
I said, you ain't ever watch none of Mike specials then.
Well, they just seen that because they came to them, too.
That's what I told him.
Oh, see, I didn't want to say it was you, but go ahead.
I was arguing with this.
And he said,
DJing.
All Mike do is host.
I said, man, Mike funny and shit.
They were talking about comedians.
And it was like, well, Mike on the tour.
I was like, well, Mike host the tour.
I was like, well, Mike host the tour.
I was like, Mike got hours, man.
I said, man, Mike got hours.
That's what I'm saying.
See, people be sleeping on me because I ain't out here honking my horn and
blowing up and doing all that crazy shit.
But that's how I like it.
I like to be under.
I like you to not be paying attention
and I'll sneak up behind you
and bop you upside your head.
That's how I love my life.
I love it.
Loving God.
That's right.
You know what I'm saying?
Always loving God and keeping the faith.
That's why I told them people
when these food stamps and stuff get cut off.
Don't worry about that.
See, black people, we've been getting our shit cut off.
We've been getting our doors kicked in and stuff.
This is not for us.
So don't take this as personal about the food stamps and all that.
I'm actually glad.
They're cutting some of these n-a-off food stamps
because some of us need to not be on food stamps
because it's a trickle-down effect.
You get the food stamps, then you go buy the food that give you cancer.
Then you eat the food to give you cancer.
Then you're sad.
You're walking around here upset.
You're diet.
Now, I'm going to tell you some honest guy, too.
Your diet then sent a lot of n-uh to prison.
They're going to take all this and put it on Fox News.
Yeah.
And it's going to say Mike Fess says you just don't need to be on food stamps.
You think so.
And you're going to go viral, and they're going to call you Maga Mike.
Magam Mike is crazy.
You got to finish it, don't damn.
Listen.
Listen, brothers and sisters.
Listen, brothers and sisters.
You don't know what this world is coming to?
No, listen to this.
No, they can't say that about me.
See, that's one thing about me, a little boosy, badass.
We can't be canceled.
No, y'all can't be canceled.
But I'm just telling you the internet going to be mad.
The L. Hulah repost you.
The internet.
You can say, fuck about the, fuck you, internet.
Bitch-ass knit.
And I'm going to take you, I'm going to say, Mike, your elders is after you.
Mike Epps, ladies, gentlemen.
It's the breakfast club.
Good morning.
Damn, man.
I'm mad.
I miss that.
Yo, I love Mike.
Salute to Mike Epps, man.
It's time for the latest with Lauren Larosa.

Chadwick Bozeman will receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
This is happening five years after his passing.
That's what I'm talking about.
Yes, it will honor the legacy he left, you know, following such an impactful career.
So this is going to happen on November 20th.

I try to keep a killer.
It's a smaller state.
He's a thing going on over there.
No, no, no, very little, but it's some of some stuff.
All right.
So in other news, speaking of some stuff,
Juvenile, so Juvenile sat down with drink champs,
Noriega, and DJFN,
and had a conversation about Little Wayne
now showing up to the verses.
Let's take a listen.
Did you know Wayne wasn't coming?
And were you disappointed when you found out
that he wasn't coming?
I knew he wasn't coming, and I was very disappointed.
You knew from the beginning of it's suspect.
I knew, but the fans, I can't do that.
All right, my deal was, if Wayne don't come, I'm not coming.
That was your deal?
That was my deal.
People working on.
Wow.
But I said, like, it was too, you know, like, the fans don't deserve that.
And then my man, shout out to Switch Beach and Timmer, man.
But my man, Swiss Beech called me, man, and gave me a speech that I'll never forget.
That's going to stick in my head for probably the rest of my life.
You know what I'm saying?
And shout out to my dude for putting, you know, making me away everything.
man, hey, I did it for the fans.
Yeah.
That's amazing.
Yes.
I do like that loyalty, though.
He's like, man, my man's ain't coming.
I'm not coming.
But like he said, like, it's the fans.
You know what I mean?
This is what the people wanted.
So I'm glad that he was able to perform because he killed it.
Yeah, that would have looked ridiculous.
If you ain't got Wayne and juvenile, he might as well, he might as well just did their own show.
Yeah.
Like, what are we talking about?
Yeah, well, that full interview and we'll be getting some more details on exactly how.
all of that went down, we'll drop in full.
So Friday, you'll be able to listen to the audio
on the Black Effect Podcast Network for Drink Champs
and then on Saturday it'll drop on YouTube.
So I'm sure we'll be talking about this again
because he's going to give some more details
and you're going to be all up in the business a bit more
and probably get some more answers
to some more of the questions from Versus.
I wonder how Wayne feels.
I wonder if Wayne feels like he missed the moment.
I'm sure he does.
It seems like I think people try to make Little Wayne
this like very removed because he's such a big star.
I think Little Wayne tried to make himself
such a very removed.
But I think behind the scenes he's not, though,
because every conversation we've heard
from when they were in New Orleans
and linked up to now versus
it's been Little Wayne is in the thick of it
trying to make us all come together
being like if this person doesn't come,
I'm not showing up.
So it seems like he's still very connected
to his family of the hot boys.
I don't know if Juvenile was going to talk about that.
BG spoke about it when he was here,
but yeah, I was told Little Wayne's idea
to do the verses to begin with.
Yes.
It was Little Wayne's idea to do the No Limit
versus Cash Money versus.
So he was, you know, the mastermind,
at all.
Yes.
But I know I feel like, yeah, like you said, Wayne always just been in his own world.
He always been just very different and removed from like the light.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
Like, not, damn, not the light, y'all.
But like, you know, like the main, like, he don't like to be in the line.
Like, he don't like too much attention on him.
Like, if you see Wayne, it's because he want to be sane, but then he go back.
It's like, can't you come out every now and then, you know what I mean?
Wayne don't really like too much attention.
But that would have been a good time to pop out, is all I'm saying.
Yes.
seems and it feels like I would love to hear a little
way and sit down with somebody that he really wanted to
but there was something that
he felt like wasn't right and I think it was something
personal and I know BG said he
was sick but I don't know after listening
and maybe we'll get some more with juvenile I think that
there was something a little bit more to it maybe didn't feel good
as well but it seems a little bit more personal
than just you know him not feeling well
but I don't have much time in this
hour next hour
I am going to be breaking down yesterday
it was filed
and the court announced that they turned
down. They said no to Torrey Lane's trying to
appeal his conviction. He is currently
serving 10 years for the shooting, the 2020
shooting of Magda Stallion, and he's
been saying that he's been unfairly convicted.
And the court is saying that, no, be
upholding this. No, you haven't, basically. Yeah, no, you
haven't. Can I keep going with it?
No, we don't have to time. Okay, yeah, so we'll bring
it back in the next hour and I'll be breaking down exactly why
they said no to his appeal and what
this means for him. Yes.
Somebody asked me, well, thank you, Lauren.
You're welcome what they say in the chat.
No, I was going to say thank you, Lord. Now somebody got to ask me
bought donkey.
Oh, now, who you give me a donkey, too?
Yes, because I was going to sit here
and tell somebody said something.
We forgot envy.
Yeah, sitting there looking right dumb.
The throat monster got envy, man, so he can't talk.
You can't even hear him.
Let me say something. That used to be my name
back in the day, honey.
Throat monster, girl.
Let me tell you something.
Okay, what?
Right.
No, I mean, I already told you yesterday.
That's like, Thor monster.
And that's exactly what you're married, girl.
You want to be somebody 57-year-old rich auntie so bad.
That he said to be my name.
Shut up.
Who are you giving a donkey to?
You know, it's going to be funny when it's the 57-year-old uncle doing that in the future.
I used to be the throat.
The throat monster.
Listen, it's going to be a lot of future 57-year-old uncles in the future.
Unkeys.
Unkeys.
Okay.
Unkeys.
Okay.
Wait, wait, did you just transform the...
I didn't even mean to do that.
Okay.
That means to stop.
For after the hour, okay, we're going to tell you why men need to learn how to move on.
This is a great example of it.
Okay, we need Samuel, Kristen,
Lund, to come to the front of the kind of gate.
We'd like to have a word with him.
You're checking out the Breakfast Club.
I was born a donkey.
It's the donkey of the day.
Look at these donkeys, don't know,
a bunch of f*** that day.
That's pretty fun.
Charlamine the devil?
Possibly.
The Breakfast Club.
I agree with you.
That's a good topic.
We're going to do that.
Don't get a day for Thursday, November 13th,
goes to a 37-year-old Oregon man
named Samuel Christian Lund.
Christian Samuel, rather.
Samuel is facing a slew of charges.
Say slew, Jess.
Slee.
Slew. I want y'all out there to know
that you never want to be facing a slew of charges.
Okay, when they do a write-up on you,
and they say you are facing a slew of charges,
you cooked, okay?
And it's going to take a slew of money
to get you the least possible amount of jail time
when you are facing a slew of.
of charges okay but samuel is facing five counts of attempted murder all right four counts of
unlawful use of a weapon two counts of unlawful manufacturing of a destructive device along with
one count each of first degree arson and uh being a felon in possession of a firearm yeah he's
going to wait for a few presidents okay biontie's youngest kid will be old enough to drink and samuel
will be in prison celebrating this 15 year anniversary with his prison bay okay but let's talk about
how he got there. See, Samuel
allegedly
detonated a bomb at an apartment
after he learned his ex-girlfriend
was hooking up with another man.
Now, Lauren LaRosa,
she heard me listening to this clip
from the Paul Mines podcast earlier.
Salute to Dre and Lex. Make sure you subscribe
to their podcast on the Black Effect Podcast Network.
Listen to this clip. It's boring
sex or red flag and should it be a red flag
for women? No.
Mm-hmm. Because I think some people
just wagged.
And some people coochie whack too
And y'all get together
And y'all have wet-assies
Now, Lauren, what did you ask me after you heard this?
I said, how is somebody's coochewack?
Like, I just can't fathom the idea.
Well, that's probably a discussion for another day
But I know that this man is willing to detonate an explosive device
After learning that woman is giving what he used to get to another man,
then dare I say, her poon-poo must be the bomb, okay?
I mean, God damn.
You're willing to take a penitentiary chance and catch a slew of charges because your ex is hooking up with another man?
I actually don't want no poom-m-pum that's that good.
All right, keep that.
That's like that moon rock weed where the THC is over 50%.
You might as well smoke crack.
And I'm not smoking crack because I've seen what crack does the people.
And this woman's poom-pum was clearly crack.
Let's go to KRCR News Channel 7 for more details.
are investigating an explosion at a home. Last Thursday, deputies responded to North 10th Avenue
and report that an explosion explosive device was thrown at a front door. Investigators found
evidence of gunshots as well. Authorities discovered this was a targeted attack and the suspect may
have known the victim. After a search warrant at the suspect's home, 37-year-old Samuel Lund was
arrested after he briefly tried to flee. Investigators also found additional explosive devices
in his home. Lund was taken to
the Washington County Jail and is now facing
several charges, including attempted murder
and arson. That was
Fox 12, by the way. Yes,
the woman reportedly told cops her ex
boyfriend, Samuel Christian Lund, had
been sending her threatening text messages
the day before after he learned she was
hooking up with another man. Listen, man, emotional
intelligence is so necessary.
Okay, people with high emotional intelligence,
they stay calm under pressure, which
helps them make more considered and well-balanced
decisions. It disturbs,
spirit to have to tell some of you men a woman moving on from you doesn't justify you turning
into a domestic terrorist okay this is why women are choosing the bear now i could already stop right
there and give samuel the credit he deserves being stupid but this is when it gets good see i like to
watch people really double and triple down on their lives because it reminds me as something my daddy
used to say to me and that's something was when you lie to me you're not lying to me you
lying to yourself because i don't believe this foolishness you're telling me and i know the police
didn't believe Samuel.
See, when they confronted him, he reportedly admitted to sending the messages but claimed
he didn't detonate the bomb.
No, no, he didn't detonate the bomb.
However, he did tell police he had experience with explosives and had a bomb in his backpack
in his garage.
But I had nothing to do with the bomb going off at her apartment offices, I promise.
Yes, I did threaten her and tell her I'm coming for her, and a bomb was detonated.
And although I have experiences with explosives and a bomb in my backpack in my garage, it wasn't
me.
me. First of all, who has extra bombs just lying around? Where do you even get bombs from? Did
you order it off Amazon? Craigslist? Do you buy a couch and join a militia in the same afternoon?
Second of all, I know for a fact you're about to spend more time in prison than time you spent
with this woman in a relationship. How the hell does that make sense? Men, you got to learn to
move on because there's going to be another woman, but you cannot get back that time you're going
spend in prison what happened to people stunting on their exes by glowing up okay becoming the
best version of yourself getting shaped physically mentally spiritually emotionally make them
look at you in the future on Facebook and kick themselves for losing you okay not end up in
prison and make your ex say I knew it I knew it all her girlfriends like I told you he was a
loser you lucky he didn't kill you girl this is the short-sightedness of revenge wounded ego
plus bad decisions equal a consequence you have to deal with for a lifetime.
Please give Samuel Christian Lund to sweet sounds of the hamletones.
Oh, now you are the donkey of the day.
You are the donkey of the day.
The chat want to play a game, Charlie?
The rich Russians falling out of Windows podcast.
is back. Sad oligarch season two.
Since we left you in 2023 after season one,
many politically motivated Russian millionaires
have continued to die in suspicious circumstances.
We dig deeper into these odd deaths,
which include everything from mushroom poisoning
and mysterious heart attacks,
to window clumsiness and suicide by decapitation.
One thing we have found since we started
back in 2022, is the information on the suspicious deaths has become much harder to find.
Not just that, it seems as if state-controlled media in Russia is being utilised to purposely
confuse and contradict the reporting that gets put out.
As you can probably imagine, season two gets very weird.

Mark Rebier, Mavis Staples, really too many in a name.
And there's still so much more to come in this new season,

This Veterans Day, the Good Stuff podcast honors those who've served and the stories that
remind us what strength really looks like.
I had over 50 operations and had 23 blood transfusions.
It is extremely difficult to navigate the VA system.
I think what frustrates us the most is thinking about our veterans from World War II era.
from Vietnam era that don't have an advocate on the phone every day, all day calling for them.
These are things that need to be talked about. These are things that need to be discussed.
We're talking about resilience, purpose, and finding hope through community and connection.
There are blessings in there as well that will happen in the most unexpected places.
You have to find the humor in it, or I think it'll literally kill you.

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

Because my advice is real
Good morning
Who's this
This is Anonymous
Hey Anonymous
What's up girl
What's wrong
So I've been
I'm engaged.
And me and my father
in the last two and a half years.
Congratulations.
I got it as good.
Oh, thank you.
I'm probably.
We went to marriage counseling
and there was an issue of him
on social media
and it's an ongoing issue.
So my question is,
is it controlling for me
to ask him to stop following
but naked females
and stop harding
and eye emojis
and drool emojis
on all of their pictures and video?
Is that controlling?
Is that an insecurity or is that respect?
No, it's not controlling.
It's not insecurity.
It can develop insecurities, definitely.
But, no, it's respect.
It's just that he has a lustful eye and he's not supposed to.
He's about to be on his way down the aisle with you.
You know what I mean?
So he's not supposed to be doing that anyway, you know?
No, it's not controlling.
Did he say you were controlling for requesting that?
So I'm a person who, if we have an issue,
just keep it in the relationship.
As you should.
I'm a person who's going to call his friends, his family to validate his issues.
And his sister called me controlling and said that I have insecurities that is just social media, I need to get over it.
Yeah, it don't see, man.
People will be mad when I say stuff, but it don't really sound like this the right family to marry into.
I wish a sister would call me to tell me what's going on and my house is wrong and all.
Like, what?
Yeah.
Nah, he got to check them.
Actually, it ain't even about him checking him
because he put him in your business.
So all of this is his fault.
He's not supposed to do that.
I was really confused because I'm like,
we're in counseling to fix our issues
to work on our issues and build our trust.
But then you back go and do some shit like this.
And I'm like, I'm sorry, I don't mean to because I'm sorry.
But how does this build trust if you go ahead and do these things?
I'm telling you my issues as my spouse.
You want to fix it or work on it.
If I'm telling you, I'm a more of a spiritual person.
We both go to church.
We both been taught and learned at the same time.
We're not due in the Bible.
This is a less weak flesh.
And you feel like it's just social media.
I don't know these people.
They don't know me.
Yeah.
Do you feel like you guys are equally yoked?
Do you feel like y'all are aligned morally?
Like, do you feel, well, actually, obviously, no, because what you're telling me, no.
All right.
Do you see any improvement?
Because obviously, this has been a thing.
He'd been doing this in previous relationships for us.
a long, long time.
His family got too much say.
So he should check itself first and then check them and stop putting them into his business
or whatever.
And then they should just know I shouldn't.
Even if you go and vent to the people that you love because that's usually what people
do, don't go back and say nothing to my fiance.
That's not, don't let her know that y'all know my business like that.
At least have a level of respect where it don't get back to me from them because now
they're looking at me like, I'm crazy.
And then when we get cool.
That's what I'm not.
Now, they still got the issue, you know?
So have you seen improvement with counseling?
I'm like, every time we put a constant,
he goes back and he has an issue, he wants to shut down.
But I'm like, she's not just telling you about your issue.
She's also telling me about my issues and what I have to work on.
It's not a biased thing.
Like, she's rooted in Bible.
She's a married woman, and she's a black woman because, you know,
I prefer, you know, represent my people.
So.
It sounds like that should have.
I'm just going at you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's not like y'all should have dated longer.
I should have just dated a little longer, you know?
How long y'all was the gap of before you got on a knee?
Ten months.
Yeah, you should have dated longer.
Yeah, probably should.
Because you never know.
Well, it is kind of different.
It is kind of, it's very situational.
Some people meet and get married in six months, nine months, two years, five years.
But you, did you see red flags of this?
Don't lie to me.
Did you see red flags?
Not exactly this, but signs.
No, so the flag I may have seen that was like a little yellow flag, you know.
But it started happening like the last six, seven months.
Like, I don't know.
I guess we've just been living together more and talking more and I guess getting more into us.
Because this is more than one issue, babe.
This is him not keeping your business, you know, within the household.
This is him on social media with the lustful eyes.
and, you know, it sounds like you're dealing with a lot before you.
You're not even married yet.
You know what I mean?
I know.
I know.
I'm like, in a day, I'm just like, I'm out.
Yeah, I feel like you wasted your time.
Yeah.
And I'm like, I made this to me and me that I'm just my person at the same time.
He's not valuing me as a person as the person you're going to be protecting, you know?
Yeah.
I'm like, oh.
Yeah.
Nah, I ain't even going to hold you.
You know what to do
You know
Since it's such a problem
For him to be with you
You know what I mean
I think you know what to do
I appreciate everything
I love you all this time
Peace
What somebody say
He love you show
I mean what you say
Oh I love you back
I love you more
I used to say I love you back
If I actually know you
I say I love you more
You know
But I was wrong
Watching porn
What
She didn't say watching porn
He followed women
Yeah he's wilding with that
Yeah he's wilding with that
He got to cut that out
Yeah, like, if you're just watching porn, cool, but he's leaving messages and hard eyes, he's wilding.
Like, that's crazy.
Like, people be acting like social media and not real life.
Like, don't you know your girl got an Instagram page?
That's crazy.
Good morning.
Who's this?
Good morning.
This is Val.
Hey, Val.
You all right?
Yeah, I'm good.
I'm kind of mad at you, but we're going to fix my mess first.
Yeah, what?
All right.
I help you first.
What's up?
So, Jess, I stay giving people money, man.
Yes.
Everybody always needs stuff, and my rent is late.
know, I got to do this, and my car is broke, da-da-da-da.
But when it comes time to pay VAL back,
ain't nobody got no damn money.
I understand.
But then they're going to ask for money again.
But the type of person that I am, you know, I just,
they're giving people money.
It's hard out here.
I find what I can to give people,
but then when it comes to pay back, even $20.
Like, people only $1,000.
$20, hey, Val, you know, I don't got it this week.
how do I start saying no
put your tongue at the top of your mouth right
on the roof and just make an ocean
just no that's what you
Val made it everybody just know
just say no let it ring from the mountain tops
the type of person I am how my grandmother raised me
is if somebody needs to eat you feed them
somebody's going through something you help them
okay but these people out here they just
how do you feel after you help
them out.
I feel great because I helped them.
You know, they weren't evicted.
You know, they got a car to go to work and whatnot.
But it's just, I feel like it's just the loyalty or the, like, you know, somebody help you just make an attempt to do right, you know?
Yeah, well, you can't expect people to be like you, babe.
It's a lot of people to, and, you know, a lot of people will take advantage of you, too, pull on your heartstrings because they know that you are that girl who, grandma of a tour.
with her never say no to somebody you know what i'm saying not never say no but always help somebody
you know yeah you said your wife yeah yeah like you have to i know your wife be mad at you i know

But I remember that.
You know, because I'll be messing with people during the show, you know,
and she said she was there with her wife.
I'm like, where?
Her wife was in the back.
She put her wife in the back.
The wife stood up and was like, it's me.
And I was like,
Really, you know, I had fun riffing on them, but she was a stud.
And then, yeah, she put her white wife in the back.
So that was respect.
That was just fixed my mess.
I don't know what just happened with Val.

Val didn't get no information.
Val just hit the end she got hung up on for no reason.
Val, call back up.

She did give me some weed, though.

Yeah, it was good.
Man, you know, them studs be packing them gas.
You already know.
All right, we got the latest.
with Lauren coming up next. It's the world's most dangerous
morning to show The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast
Club.
Lauren becoming a straight
fat. She gets them from somebody that knows somebody.
She gets to detail. I'm the home girl
that knows a little bit about everything.
She'd be having the latest on this.
The latest with Lauren LaRosa.
Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have
a little bit of everything. Well, it's the latest.
On the breakfast club. Talk to me.
All right. So, Tori,
this week was denied the appeal that he put in. So he was basically trying to have his conviction
overturn. He has been doing or completing a sentence of 10 years in prison following the 2020
shooting of Meg the Stallion for which he was convicted for in 2022. Now he appealed this for
many different reasons. Some to mention he claimed that his right to testify was unfairly
stopped for several reasons, including he had said that his attorneys at the time told him
that like song lyrics and other damaging evidence could be used against him in cross-examination.
and worried about that.
He also said that the court messed up in,
he alleged that the court messed up in his trial
because they allowed prosecutors to play that recording
of the interview that Meg Desalien's former best friend
Kelsey Harris did when she sat down with police
and she told them that Tory shot Meg,
but then remember she came in the court
and said she didn't recall any of that.
Now, the judges, so this was a three-judge panel
that made this decision,
the judges basically said they don't agree,
agree with any of his arguments and that they're going to uphold this conviction.
They mentioned also, too, remember when he was, you know, claiming that his former attorney,
Sean Hawley had done a bunch of wrong things, including not alleging, not allegedly not allowing
him to testify.
The judges say that they read an email from Sean Holly that said that she basically had told
Toraylaines and the other attorneys on the team that she wasn't comfortable with them trying
to pin the shooting on Harris, who was Megastalian's former best friend because of some of the
evidence and things that she had saw, so she backed off the case.
And a judge said that they feel like she did nothing wrong by backing off of the case
and deciding that that strategy wasn't right.
They also say that there was nothing wrong with the, you know,
court at the time allowing the jury to hear Kelsey's interview with the police
because at that time when she was subpoenaed and she came in,
she was given immunity, which is why she kept claiming she didn't remember anything that happened.
So the recording was admissible in court and they were allowed to, you know, play it at that point
because there were some inconsistent statements
that needed to be cleared up.
So, yeah, he'll have to complete his sentence
at this point.
At this point, how long you got left?
I'm not even for sure.
It feels like it's been a while.
He was convicted in 2022.
Right.
Oh, that's what, about to be 2026?
Damn.
Yeah.
He got six more yet.
Oh, he was he sentenced?
Right.
I don't know.
Does it start from the conviction of sentencing date?
I can figure that out for you guys.
Sentence in date, right?
I can figure that out for you guys
and see how much,
how much longer he has behind bars
but I did see he was going to be up for parole
at some point though. Yeah I mean there's a few
different options that he'll be able to still do
after this but people
there was a lot of people that felt like
this appeal was going to be it for him. I know
that from speaking to his attorneys prior to
they strongly believe that he had a strong
basis to appeal as well but you know this
judge panel is saying no that they don't
believe so. Yeah but I'll get that answer to you guys
while we move on to this next story because I want to get
into the Living Single podcast
The reliving single podcast
One of my favorite podcasts out there
Salute to Eric Alexander and Kim Kohl's.
Yes.
So they sat down with Queen Latifah
and on this podcast, if you guys are not familiar,
they've been here to the Breakfast Club to talk about it as well.
They revisit various episodes and conversations around the show.
So Queen Lativa was their guest on the show
and they talked about so many different things.
One of the things that stood out first was
they talked about just the fight behind the scenes
to be able to do living single the way that they did on television.
Let's take a listen to.
that. Tell us a little bit, a little bit of what you remember at the pilot. Do you remember
if you thought then it was going to be a hit? I always thought it was going to be a hit.
A lot of things at that age is not knowledge. It's your gut instinct.
You were what, 23 years old, right? Yes. Yeah, I was, you know, from Jersey. But I knew
we had something. I mean, that was the goal. But once we got y'all, I mean, I was already
like, okay, Kim calls. This is crazy. Yvette was like on the come up. Like, and then you
and then Kim Field. To me was also the success of Martin and Fox being this.
like kind of burgeoning network. There was like space for us to grow. I mean, it was a fight because
we had to fight for everything. Fight for the identity of the show. Fight for the class of the show
to show for different kinds of women, to show two different kinds of guys to show what black people
look like who are upwardly mobile, headed towards success, struggling, you know, to be, you know,
entrepreneurs like the whole up and down. Yeah, we were all becoming. Man, when I tell you, I ran to listen
to that podcast when I saw that pop up in my
feed yesterday. I can literally listen to her
all the day. I love Queen Latifah.
I love Kim Coles and Eric Alexander too, though.
Yeah, I actually toured with Kim Coles.
Like, she is funny on stage too.
They discussed the episode that I
don't know why I didn't remember. Maybe
I didn't remember it as that was
their actual mothers in the episode.
Okay, I didn't know that there was
their actual mothers either, but when
so I don't have that audio, but yeah,
they talked about that and they talked about the fact that they used
their actual moms and they talked about the fact
that Queen Latifah's mom
was such an advocate
for all of them behind the scenes
and Queen Latifah used to be so homesick
on the set
and her mom was like
one of the only people
from her family
that actually came and visited her
so that was like
such a heartfelt and warming moment
but the moms
everybody loved the moms
like they were super excited
about the episode
what Jess?
No, yo I gotta get out
this chat
you know people crazy
somebody say Queen Latifah
is the original man
he first stud
like why?
And shut up
exactly
why do you shut up
First of all, yes, and Latifah talked about having a big house in L.A.
Yes.
And how nobody from Newark would come visit her.
Yes, but when you moved to L.A., everybody's so excited.
And then nobody ever shows it's so far.
It doesn't feel as far until you get there.
And you're like, dang, everybody over there.
But another part of the, like, just living single experience that they talked about
was the creation of the theme song.
Because originally living single wasn't going to be living single.
It was my girl.
My Girlfriends.
And Queen Latifah had originally created a song for that show.
and then had to change it once they change the name of the song.
Let's take a listen to Queen Latifah on creating the theme song for Living Single.
Obviously, I come from music, and this is my show.
I was just thinking about Living Single.
I'm thinking about what we're doing.
Like, what is it like?
These four girls doing that thing.
So a producer I know named Def Jeff, I needed him to come over and help me flesh this idea out.
So I was like, I want this beat to feel like this.
And then I wrote the rhyme and then chopped up, check, check it out.
So then Stu
We went over his house with the beat
And he added like the keys
Come on
So that we are living
Hey single
I'm hearing that in my mind
And it was longer
Yes we're living in the single life
So I'm thinking of that
But then I'm also like
Keep your head up boy
Keep your head up
That's right
So I wrote the rhyme to it
And then he was like
Can you do this at the end
So his part
part, which was a clutch part.
That right there.
I was like, whom.
You know, I love to hear artists talk about the process of making music.
Even though this was a theme song, like, yo, they be into.
You can tell us passionate.
She was very passionate about music.
Yes, that's dope.
Yeah, man.
They had another great conversation, too, about trusting your parents.
And how I forgot, I think it was either Kim Cole's mom.
I might have been both of them.
I think it was Kim Cole's mom, how you tell your kids as long.
as you tell me first, you won't
get in trouble. And that's how I talked
to my daughter. As long as you tell me the truth, you won't
get in trouble. You won't only get in trouble for lying.
But you don't know as a kid, if you really do that, if you
really won't get in trouble. But she said she did
it once, and she didn't get in trouble, so
it created that trust. Yeah, absolutely.
Absolutely. Absolutely.
I love that podcast, man. You know, I love
Erica Alexander and salute to Kim Coles.
And I love Queen Latifah. I have always
been inspired by what Queen Latifah and
Shaqam have built with Flavor Unit
as a production company. Two individuals
who are extremely underrated in every aspect.
Yes.
And that, okay, pleasure you.
No, I'm just saying, and the Queen Latifah smells good.
I saw her three times in my life.
She always smelled good.
And she just been cloaking.
You met her before?
Yeah, I have.
I never met her.
I actually got to say hi to her.
I was so star-struck.
I ain't know what to say.
And she just laughed.
I'm like, yo, I'm so sorry.
I met her one time in L.A.
I saw her in Vegas.
And I forgot.
I think it was two times in L.A.
I was living in L.A.
She always smelled so effing good.
Did you get a picture?
with her dress? No. I didn't get a picture. Did you ask for a picture? No, I just asked for a hug. She gave me one. I asked for a picture and she said, this was like three years ago, LA. She said, if you take a picture, you'll have a photo of the moment, but if you live in the moment, you'll remember this experience even more. And I was like, okay, no picture. I think it was the standard in LA. Yeah. And she was like, it was like after a party. She was in a little deli area that they had. Did she smell good? Yes, she smelled good. I would love to meet it. Jason Lee knows I love her. So he had her do a video. She was a video. She was all the things. Jason Lee knows I love her. So he had her do a video. I do a video. She was. She was. I
video for me one time.
That's dope.
Oh yeah, they're really close.
Yep.
Yep. By the way, that's a conversation I'd like to have.
People always ask me who I'd like to interview because we've interviewed a little bit of
everyone.
Shalkem and Queen Latifah together, that's the interview I would like to do.
Yes.
To wrap this up, I did want to go back to the Tori Lane's questions that you guys had.
Jess, you were right.
So your sentence begins on the day of sentencing, not the day that you're convicted.
And he is eligible for parole.
And if he doesn't get parole, he'll be incarcerated until 2033.
but he's not eligible until 2029
and if he does the 2033
he has eight years left currently
but it depends on
kind of where that falls but yes
that's the end and make sure y'all go check out that full conversation
on the reliving single podcast

I felt it ripped through me.
In season two of RipCurrent, we ask, who tried to kill Judy Berry and why.
They were climbing trees and they were sabotaging logging equipment in the woods.
She received death threats before the bombing.
She received more threats after the bombing.
I think that this is a deliberate attempt to sabotage our movement.
