Starting point is 00:05:10 There you go. Well, let's get the show cracking. We got, well, first of all, how was your weekend? What'd you do this weekend? Anything? I went to Delaware this weekend because I had to bring her back with me. So I was just with family and friends. It was everybody's birthday this weekend.

I like Atlantic City. It's a lot of fun. I mean, yeah, it's just cool. It's a cool, if you live in Jersey, it's a cool little date night to get away. You can get away for a date, but not too far.
Starting point is 00:06:06 But it's not because of the beach, right? Nah, nah, I didn't go to the beach. Okay, because I'd be like, y'all go there for the beach. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. But everything else, like, you know, I love Oceans, Ocean Resort. I think that's what it's called. No, it's not Ocean Resort, but it's Ocean Hotel. Gotcha.
Starting point is 00:06:19 I like going to the Ocean Hotel, and I like eating at Kelsey's. Boy, we had brunch at Kelsey's yesterday. You hear me? Kelsey's is amazing. Drop one of the Cl like eating at Kelsey's. Boy, we had brunch at Kelsey's yesterday. You hear me? Kelsey's is amazing. Drop one of the Clues bombs for Kelsey's. Lord have mercy. Kelsey's is the soul food spot down there. It's amazing down there.
Starting point is 00:06:31 Didn't even know. Lord. They just moved, too. They opened up a new facility, a new spot about a year ago, two years ago. Oh, the brunch is amazing. I had shrimp and grits. I mean, you know, I'm from the South, so I like a good down South hearty breakfast. I had two biscuits, shrimp and grits, chicken sausage, and a sweet potato waffle.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Lord have mercy. Shout out to Kelsey. All that's in L.A. City? Yes, ma'am. I didn't know that. It's not even connected to a hotel. You got to leave. But it's amazing.
Starting point is 00:06:55 Oh, it was amazing. Amazing. All right. Well, let's get the show cracking. We got front page news. Morgan, when we come back to Don't Move, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:07:02 It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa's filling in for Jess. And let's get in some front page news. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, good morning. Happy Monday. Yes, let's get into it. So in case you missed it, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Starting point is 00:07:20 suspended his 2024 presidential campaign on Friday. The independent candidate made the announcement while speaking in Phoenix, Arizona. Let's hear more from RFK Jr. It's with a sense of victory and not defeat that I'm suspending my campaign. And now to throw my support to President Trump. Yeah, he said he's backing Trump
Starting point is 00:07:43 because he best embodies his priorities and added that Trump asked him to serve in his administration right around the time of his assassination attempt. Now, Kennedy said after Trump's call, he did reach out to Kamala Harris about having the same discussions, but she never returned his calls. Kennedy believes the Democratic Party of his father and uncle, John FK and RFK Sr., has become beholden to corporations and other entities. He also told Fox News on Sunday that he realized he had no path to victory after he was kept
Starting point is 00:08:11 off major news networks and blocked out of presidential debates. Now, only moments after his announcement, RFK Jr. hit the campaign trail in Arizona with former President Donald Trump. Let's hear more from RFK on the campaign trail with Trump. The best way to build a safe America is to rebuild our industrial base and rebuild the middle class in this country. And don't you want a president who's going to get us out of the wars and who's going to rebuild the middle class in this country?
Starting point is 00:08:41 And don't you want a president who's going to protect America's freedoms? And don't you want a president that's going to make America healthy again? Yes. So during remarks, Trump thanked Kennedy for the endorsement and called him incredible champion for conservative values. He also insulted Vice President Kamala Harris, called her a communist fascist and suggested she forced Biden out of the race in an unconstitutional coup. Let's hear more from former President Trump and from that rally in Arizona. We're going to win Arizona. We're going to defeat comrade Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:09:22 And we're going to win back our beautiful White House we're going to win it back we're going to win it back in record for she she was the border czar she presided over the worst border in history not American history world history I will establish a new independent presidential commission on assassination attempts and they will be tasked with releasing all of the remaining documents pertaining to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Yeah I'm not sure that's what the people want. Go ahead. Yeah I agree. I saw more comments. I did see more conversation about RFK Jr. dropping out this weekend on all the cable news channels than I
Starting point is 00:10:04 did damn near about the DNC especially in regards to kamala's speech being that she spoke thursday that that was like a bsc story um but i don't know if him endorsing trump is gonna move the needle for trump i i don't i don't know you know a lot of people feel like uh independence are disruptors that all they're doing is really disrupting the uh president election what's your thoughts on that that's how his family feels his family from the beginning yeah when when when robert f kennedy jr came out and said he wanted to run his family from the beginning said that's exactly what he's doing but i'm a little confused and i was at a live event that he did i spoke there i thought that his policies and what he was saying he wanted to do if anywhere close to elected which i knew wasn't going to happen we're closer to
Starting point is 00:10:41 kamala harris yeah so i know they flip back and forth, but the flip like that is kind of crazy. I thought so too. And it's interesting when he says, you know, he feels like Democrats are beholden, you know, the corporate America.
Starting point is 00:10:53 That can't be your reasoning because all politicians, Republicans and Democrats are beholden to corporate money. Yeah. To your point, Lauren, members of the Kennedy family are criticizing that decision. They've actually issued a statement signed by five Kennedys
Starting point is 00:11:07 calling the move a betrayal to basically the legacy of what Robert F. Kennedy and John F. Kennedy stood for. I don't understand why it's getting so much news attention. I don't understand why R.F. Kennedy is getting so much news. It's his family name. I feel like he's never gotten no attention.
Starting point is 00:11:23 I feel like he's getting more attention this weekend than he's gotten throughout his whole campaign so why give it any energy now I think the plan was he thought he was going to get this attention
Starting point is 00:11:31 he would use it to shift against Kamala because he obviously doesn't want her to win but it's more of like just a talking point honestly I definitely think
Starting point is 00:11:37 that's exactly why he made the announcement on Friday to overshadow DNC so why let it overshadow why do CNN MSNBC why do these networks let it overshadow they why why do cnn msnbc why do these networks let it
Starting point is 00:11:46 overshadow they pick what the headlines are they pick what the stories are there's controversy cells and i don't think he necessarily wants to go with trump i just feel like trump is the only one that called him back yes trump made him feel special that's like that girl like you made him feel special so you picked back but yeah that's that's what that felt like all right well that is front page news now get it off your chest, Morgan. We'll see you next hour. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Let us know how your weekend was, what you're feeling, what you're doing, all that good
Starting point is 00:12:12 stuff. And again, salute to all the Virgos out there. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass.
Starting point is 00:12:24 This is your time to get it off your chest really a man of blast we want to hear from you on the breakfast club hello who's this yo it's devon from jersey what's up dj mv devon from jersey what part of jersey brother uh what's it called i don't want to put that on here, but I just want to big up. No, I was at your show, so I want to big you up real quick because that show was crazy. And the food was good. The music was on point. You see what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:12:59 So I just want to big up Envy on that. And I also want to big up my mother and my fiance because their birthday is September 11th. Okay. So. Yeah, mine is the 3rd. Shout out to Virgos. And shout out to Red, who usually runs the boards and produce up here, and DJ P-Dub. They actually provided the soundtrack for the car show. So I'm glad you and your family had a great time.
Starting point is 00:13:17 Hell yeah. Big them up. Yup. All right, bro. Have a good one. Later. All right. Hello.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Who's this? This is Leroy. Leroy, what's up? Get it off your chest. Listen, man, the Kennedy name was for sale And Robert was just trying to auction it off to the highest bidder And Trump just happened to be the one who bid on it Because nobody else wanted it
Starting point is 00:13:34 It was that simple Yeah, but I don't think that he's the Kennedy that you want to buy Like, you know, yes, the Kennedy name means something But the Robert F. in front of it He probably devalues it a little bit. I completely agree with that. But again, he was just auctioning off the name because people recognize the name. I get it.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Thank you, brother. That is true. I was in the drugstore yesterday and there was some white people behind me and they was like, wow, Kennedy endorsing a Republican. I'm trying to tell you, he does. It doesn't seem right, I guess, from Unc. It really doesn't seem right. Who the hell from Unc. It really doesn't seem right. Who the hell is Unc? His uncle.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Let me hear you call one of them white boys Unc again. Not my Unc. I thought you was calling him Unc. I thought you was saying Envy. When did you meet him? I thought it was Monday. Now he didn't came to a car show.
Starting point is 00:14:16 No, you said from Unc. What the hell do you mean from Unc? Who the hell is Unc? Hello, who's this? He must have popped out at a car show. Sandra the Haitian therapist. Not that one. Sac passe.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Ma poulet. You know we about out of the car, Shawina. Sandra, the Haitian therapist. Sasha, sac passe. Ma poule. You know we about to announce the next Mental Wealth Expo soon, Sasha. Oh, yeah, I've been waiting for it. I know it's in October, so I'm keeping my eyes open on social media for that. Yep. I called because I wanted to disagree with you about the whole Michael Rubin thing. Thoroughly disagree.
Starting point is 00:14:44 I feel like we make the black billionaires and millionaires as a community. We're not tearing people down. We lift them up. Like there's no black successful person that's not there because of black people. So I definitely disagree with him on that front. Why do we always go to the celebrity though? Like, like,
Starting point is 00:15:02 like it ain't always about celebrity. Like everyday people. We do that to each other. We're Like, it ain't always about celebrity. Regular people, too. Yeah, everyday people. We do that to each other. We're very hard on each other. I get that, but therapy for black girls won't exist without black people. Therapy for black men wouldn't exist without black people. My mentor, a black woman, the black community has always supported me.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Are there naysayers? Of course. But I feel like to say that all we do is tear each other down when we don't really get far unless we have. Oh, yeah, I don't agree with broad generalizations at all, but I'm not going to sit here and act stupid to, you know, what I know he was talking about. I get it, but I think that we put too much focus.
Starting point is 00:15:40 Like if one or two people say something negative, then we all think, okay, the echo chamber, everything is negative. But I think that the whole black-owned businesses and shining spotlight on black things, that's because of us
Starting point is 00:15:53 as a community. And we ride for each other, I think, for the most part. It's been going along for a long time. I remember when I was younger, my daddy would always tell me, my daddy would say,
Starting point is 00:16:01 don't even put your name on a business that you own because your own people will hate on it for no reason. They still say that. He told me that younger, my daddy would always tell me, my daddy would say, don't even put your name on a business that you own because your own people will hate on it for no reason. He told me that when I was a young, young, young child. I don't necessarily agree with it in all cases, but I understand what he's saying. Not in all
Starting point is 00:16:15 cases, but there are a few. There are some. That's not LaRosa's mom. She says it's a love and hate thing. It's not just love. She says it's not just hate. Well, get it off just love. It's hate as well. No, she says it's not just hate. Mm-hmm. Well, get it off your chest. She's saying,
Starting point is 00:16:28 like the audience can hear her. Oh, have a bite. Why won't we repeat it what she said? 800-585-1051. Get it off your chest. Phone lines are wide open. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is your time to get it off your chest. you're mad or blessed so you better have the same energy we want to hear from you on the breakfast club hello who's this man this is Dupree from Omaha Nebraska what up breakfast club Dupree what up get it off your chest man I just want to get off my chest man I'm down in Chicago I went to the DNC Thursday. It was a great experience, man. It was an out-of-body experience to be able to see Thomas Harris speaking aside the United States Arena or the United
Starting point is 00:17:11 Center and then to be outside the arena and see them protesting and things like that. But I would say Chicago Police and everyone they had involved did a great job with just keeping things safe and things like that. So, can't wait to see what it turns out to be in November. And also, Chicago not a bad place.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Like, people make it seem. Chicago is actually a beautiful place. Boy, you was just downtown. Relax your nerves. I love Chicago, too, but you was just downtown. I bet you wouldn't go to that south side. I played through the hood, too. Why?
Starting point is 00:17:43 Exactly why. I hate when people do that When they go visit somewhere And they gotta go see the hood They wanna see it I mean I'm not mad at them What? You got to come to LA
Starting point is 00:17:50 And be like take me to the hood No you go by yourself Call me when you get back Man I went to LA In the hood too I got family in LA You gotta slide through Poverty is too
Starting point is 00:17:58 But still You still gotta slide Through the seat It's not as bad As they make it seem I feel like I didn't skate one hood I ain't trying to find feel like but uh salute to him but you know what i hate i hate when we do that because we don't live in those cities because there's somebody from chicago listening to this right now saying he don't
Starting point is 00:18:15 even know what the hell he's talking about because in those same communities there are they are point of spanish they're not they're not out there protesting for no reason. They had a protest that mimicked Dick Gregory's 1968 protest of the Democratic National Convention. And it was just black people in those neighborhoods who feel like they're getting the short end of the stick. So you can't say that you don't live there. You were there for a weekend. You don't know what them people deal with on a daily basis. Also, defund hood tours. Y'all keep popping up in these neighborhoods.
Starting point is 00:18:43 Y'all don't know these people. But it's bad because people hear so much about these neighborhoods. It's like when people come to certain parts, they drive through these neighborhoods. They want to go to Harlem. They want to go to Queensbridge. They just want to see it. You hear people talking about it. They fans. That's a safari. That's really some white people. That's a safari. Get out and get out the car and sit on the car. They want to drive by and see what the scenarios are. They want to go to the O, whatever that place is called. They want to get out there. They want to take pictures.
Starting point is 00:19:11 They want to do all that. They don't just ride by. They want to do a lot. What a luxury to be able to just ride through a hood and be like, it's not that bad here. Yeah, because you don't live here, fool. I know. If you pull up in my neighborhood on the wrong block and you get out there and take pictures, mom, what would they be doing?
Starting point is 00:19:24 She'd tell you, don't do that. Mom would be like, boy, mom, what they be doing? She tell you don't do that. Mama like, boy, girl, what are you doing? She's just dead away. What are you talking about? You like, you think about my mom. My mom looks at you like, what are you talking about? My mom, no, you don't pull up on, you're not pulling up on our block on 5th Street just hopping out and taking pictures. My mom thinks she, she don't, she be a little removed from what's going on.
Starting point is 00:19:39 She looking at you like, I don't know what you're talking about, Laura. I've been over there my whole life. She speaks to everybody. She, she don't know what you're talking about, Laura. I've been over there my whole life. She speaks to everybody. She don't know what be going on. Laura Rosenbaum's hanging out with us this morning.

Starting point is 00:21:21 But they had to cancel The shows They actually canceled The one in Connecticut literally 30 minutes before the show was about to start. So people were like, oh my God, what is going on? Is everything okay?
Starting point is 00:21:31 And then they released a statement that basically told fans that T-Biz had what they believed was food poisoning. So they had to cancel the show and that everything would be rescheduled. They let people know when. And then about 24 hours later, she was taken to the hospital and found out that it actually was not um food
Starting point is 00:21:48 poisoning but it was an abdominal blockage so it was a lot more serious than what she thought um and of course you know they sent like their deep regrets out saying that they were sorry that they had to cancel the shows but of course she needs to get better um i reached out to a rep for the group uh just to check in on her and see how she was doing so we could give an update to fans this morning and i was told that t-biz is out of the hospital and she is you know resting they don't have any clue yet as to when these shows will be rescheduled it just happened but she is at a hospital and they expected her to be released sunday when she originally went into the hospital so that's actually what happened so that means maybe things are progressing well because
Starting point is 00:22:22 she was released on time that's why details matter and you got to read the story and not the headline because when i saw the headline i just assumed it was something to do with her sickle cell i just assumed i know i did too i did too when i saw the cancellation i was like oh my god i hope she's okay because i know about the sickle cell and then when i saw food poisons i'm like oh okay she'll be all right then i saw a domino i'm like what is going on so that's what made me reach out i'm like yo what's going on she's all right she all right how is this the most important thing. That's right. I'm just hearing all this. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.

Starting point is 00:23:01 herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.

Starting point is 00:28:26 by a fan for five million dollars uh now this fan is saying that nikki needs to pay him this money because he's had his reputation damaged he's suffered emotional distress and financial loss um backstory on this so there's a fan named Tamir Peak who is alleging that Nicki is a bully. More specifically, he's saying that he was one of her like really avid followers.
Starting point is 00:28:51 He helped her push Pink Friday 2 in 2023. But things started to get a little crazy because Nicki, according to him, went on this like hate train. And during that hate train,
Starting point is 00:29:00 she accused him and other fans of being paid moles to sabotage her. He said that Nicki ridiculed him, that she accused him and other fans of being paid moles to sabotage her uh he said that nikki ridiculed him that she invited him allegedly to a hotel and then embarrassed him in front of all of her ig live followers he also is alleging that her husband kenneth petty mistreated him during a super bowl weekend in 2020 um and said that nikki actually dm'd him after about the incident allegedly and he's also saying that that Nicki has targeted him specifically during several...
Starting point is 00:29:28 You know how she goes live on Stationhead and then on X and stuff like that. So he's upset because he's saying during these times, she implied that he was slow and that he was on welfare. So he's saying he needs to be paid. He's saying he needs to be paid a little coin. Y'all better stop laughing at him for we'd be the next one so that's funny you did so nikki's reps were reached out to um and you know listen this just to put it out there and i don't know what's true or not you know i'm not a judge but you you can file a lawsuit about a little bit of anything. Anybody can sue for anything. So you can sue somebody
Starting point is 00:30:06 if somebody mistreats you? I mean, it depends on what the, does it cause you harm where you can't work and make money and mentally, you know.
Starting point is 00:30:13 And be slow. If he's not slow. Keep going. Keep going. What do you mean? Yes, you can sue somebody for mistreating you.
Starting point is 00:30:20 That's what happens in the workplace all the time. and like verbal abuse that has like damaged your reputation. But they don't work with each other. Somebody just say, I don't like you. So I'm suing you today. You just call happens in the workplace all the time. Oh, and like verbal abuse that has like damaged your reputation. But they don't work with each other. Somebody just say, I don't like you.
Starting point is 00:30:26 So I'm suing you today. You just call me slow. I don't care. It won't be, you know how many lawsuits I got going on? Okay. Not us up here
Starting point is 00:30:33 waving a lawsuit flag. Let's not do that. 15 years strong here, okay? That's not something to like just throw out there. It just invites people. What I'm saying is it happens when you're
Starting point is 00:30:42 in a certain position because this is the problem with responding to people online. these folks can say whatever they want about you the most ridiculous rumors vicious lies and then when you reply back now you the bully and people got emotional distress she called me retarded and said i was on welfare you're not supposed to say that word oh please so nikki's attorney um he gave a Please. You want to sue me for that? No, you can say whatever. I'm just messing with you. I'm just messing with you. Leave me alone. So, Nikki's attorney, he gave a statement to TMZ and said that the fan, Mr. Peek, has been harassing Nikki on social media for some years to no avail. He has now graduated to seeking to shake her down financially with manifesting false allegations
Starting point is 00:31:19 and legally frivolous claims. He will not regret. He will regret. I'm sorry, having gone down this disruptible road when he is forced to pay her legal fees
Starting point is 00:31:30 as required by California law. I thought about that when I was reading this. I'm like, lawsuits ain't free. Not at all. It may not cost you nothing to file,
Starting point is 00:31:39 but it costs to keep going. Yes. And eventually, you know, that lawyer going to turn around and be like, hey man. It's probably a money play. We all know that we just it's probably we could say an alleged
Starting point is 00:31:48 money play where they'll try to just settle out in court get a couple of grand and keep it moving that's what most of these lawsuits ever since that cardi uh lawsuit with the blogs and she won a lot of people willing to go all the way though a lot of people have been going all the way because they like millions have the money and she has the money that's what i'm saying oh yeah nikki not the person i'm just saying like normally a big entity would just settle because they don't feel like all of the chatter online and all that but now people going all the way through they want people to know that you was out here trying to play with them i'm not settling for nothing if i know i'm right that's right i'm not selling for nothing i know i didn't do nothing i'm not settling for nothing so i'm not mad at nikki i just i just don't like the
Starting point is 00:32:24 you know you can pick pick pick pick pick pick pick at somebody but then soon as that person responds now you won't play i would say yeah you can't play victim now now i'm um you treated me wrong so i'm suing you now that don't make no sense well in other legal news um danny lay so you guys remember back in may danny lay was was actually arrested and taken to jail for a hit and run. She was booked on three felony charges, which included driving under the influence, leaving the scene of a crash with serious bodily injury and DUI damage to her property.
Starting point is 00:32:57 So now the body cam from that incident, it was in Miami. And what they are claiming and what they caught on video was a car that they say is Danny Lay's It hit a pedestrian who was on like a moped bike and he like suffered like different fractures or whatever So the body cam is out now and let's take a listen to Danny lay on the camera We have witnesses we have witnesses saying that you hit a scooter Well, we're gonna clarify we have cameras all over the city, so we're going to clarify, okay? I'm a celebrity. You understand what I'm coming for. Okay, well. So I just can't be committed to committing a crime. Regardless of the fact that you're a celebrity or not,
Starting point is 00:33:37 you're still not bucking off. She's a celebrity. You're looking me up? You think that was life? Quavo was right here helping me out. Yeah, that's Quavo. Those are my boys. Is there somebody who died? I don't know. How do you not know? You don't know if somebody died.
Starting point is 00:33:58 It's a really serious thing and you're laughing. I'm not laughing. You are laughing. She's twisted. Let me tell you something, man. I'm a celebrity. If you have to tell people you tell you something, man. I'm a celebrity. If you have to tell people you're a celebrity, you're not much a celebrity. And then they looked her up.
Starting point is 00:34:10 They said, oh, she's not lying. She really is a singer. And then Quavo. So she mentions Quavo because in the video you do see Quavo and like a security guard. Like they just see her sitting on the ground in cuffs. So he stops like, yo, what's going on? And they're like, yo, get back, get back. So he keeps going. So she's like, yeah, that's my homie.
Starting point is 00:34:22 That was Quavo from the Migos. So but the fact that she was laughing, she asked in the video did somebody die and then it comes out that like you know she was actually booked in charge for hitting the person that they're referencing and she's laughing in the video it's just it doesn't look good on her she knows what let me ask you a question i seen the video did she not have a top on i think she had like a bikini top but maybe it was showing too much that's why they had the blur because i was confused about that too because i'm like if her boob was coming out why didn't the cop tell her right yeah real celebrities don't have to tell folks they are a celebrity period you know at all well i mean never mind i was gonna say
Starting point is 00:34:57 something but i'm not gonna do that what i was gonna say if danny lay was like i'm danny lay it's like how else she would have to, I'm the baby's baby mom. Because what else do we know her as? I think she better off saying, I'm slow and I'm on welfare. Please cut me a break. That is just a little break. The cop might have more sympathy with you. When we come back, we got front page news.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Morgan Wood will be joining us. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilaria, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa is filling in for Jess. And let's get back in some front page news. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:35:35 Good morning. So, yeah, Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance, he says he believes former President Trump would veto a federal abortion ban if he's elected in November. In an interview with NBC's Meet the Press, Vance said Trump has been very clear that he wants to leave the abortion question up to the states in order to focus on bigger issues. Let's hear more from Republican VP Hopeful, J.D. Vance. Donald Trump's view is that we want the individual states and their individual cultures and their unique political sensibilities to make these decisions because we don't want to have a nonstop federal conflict. Donald Trump wants to end this culture war over this particular topic. California wants to have
Starting point is 00:36:15 a different abortion policy from Ohio. Then Ohio has to respect California and California has to respect Ohio. So yes, this comes after comments from congressional Republicans where they indicated they would continue to push for a federal ban even if former President Trump were elected. Another issue that is pressing for the American people is the war in Gaza. U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders, he says the United States should cut off aid to the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government. The Vermont Independent told ABC's This Week that the U.S. should not be sending Israel aid while its military is killing innocent Palestinians and creating a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. Excuse me. Let's hear more from Senator Sanders. who's right-wing extremist government. They certainly had a right to defend themselves against the atrocious Hamas attack. They never had the right, do not have the right,
Starting point is 00:37:09 to go to war against the entire Palestinian people. American taxpayer dollars should not go to starve children in Gaza. That is my view. Others may disagree with me. And Bernie Sanders is Jewish, so that says a lot. While he acknowledged the Biden administration is currently taking a different stance on the issue by continuing to send aid, Sanders also said he hopes that Kamala Harris's administration would change policy. Also, New Jersey Senator Cory Booker says the Biden administration is working to prevent
Starting point is 00:37:36 escalation in the Middle East following the latest clash between Israel and Hezbollah militants in Lebanon. The New Jersey Democrat told CNN State of the Union U.S. officials are speaking with all parties in the region in the hopes of stopping a wider war. And he said the Joint Chiefs of Staff have been sent to the region amid the heightened tensions. And I didn't have this story on my rundown, but I definitely wanted to switch up and add this.
Starting point is 00:37:58 So a Confederate monument that stood in Atlanta for over 100 years has been replaced by a statue honoring good trouble and necessary trouble. Civil rights hero John Lewis, renowned Jamaican sculptor Basil Watson, created the John Lewis Memorial, which was installed on August 16th in front of the historic Decatur Courthouse in Atlanta. The statue stands 12 feet tall atop a granite pedestal and depicts Lewis with his hands over his heart, a gesture he frequently used to express his love for others. It replaced a 30-foot Confederate monument that was erected in 1908 by the United Daughters of the Confederacy. And if we have one more, attention, Walmart shoppers. Great Value is recalling nearly 10,000 bottles of apple juice
Starting point is 00:38:40 sold at Walmarts nationwide. Don't get the apple juice right now. The Food and Drug Administration announced that the juice contains unsafe levels of inorganic arsenic. The recalled juice was sold in six packs of eight-ounce plastic bottles with a best-by date of December 2024. So yeah, go with the Motts or something else,
Starting point is 00:38:56 you know, not the generic brand if you're going to get some apple juice from Great Values. I can't afford the Motts. You see how the price is already through the roof, Morgan? The grocery prices are already astronomical. The great value is what I can afford, and that's not even safe?
Starting point is 00:39:08 Mm-mm-mm. What is the world coming to, man? Maybe just go to the self-checkout line, wink, wink. Now just get our secret. I can't afford bail. If I can't afford mugs, Morgan, I can't afford bail. You got Morgan number, Morgan got it. Morgan gonna bail us out.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Jesus, Morgan. Wink, wink. That's your front page news. Follow me on social at Morgan Media, M-O-R-G-Y-N-M-E-D-I-A. And for more news coverage, make sure you're following at Black Information Network. We're rolling out all of our DNC coverage.

Why she ain't do all the things she said she was going to do? Because she ain't the motherfucking president, that's why. When you go to the motherfucking mic, no, that lady that's the manager, she don't get to do what she want to do. She might can give you some prize, but she can't change the price of that motherfucking quarter pound up there. That ain't that motherfucking lady White House. She just like the manager,
Starting point is 00:40:41 you fall in line. But y'all motherfucking know this know this most of y'all but y'all just want something to say so let's open up the phone lines 800-585-1051 what are your thoughts on what plies just said uh i have thoughts we'll discuss when we come back all right call us up right now it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club it's topic time call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the breakfast club let's talk about it morning everybody it's dj nv jess hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club laura la rosa's filling in for jess and if you're just joining us we're talking about some comments that plies made over over the weekend. Let's listen. But to everybody who, especially the ones who look like me, the men who look like me, who quit the, if Kamala want my vote, she need to explain herself to me what she going to do for the black people. Listen, stop asking the motherfucking black woman to
Starting point is 00:41:39 explain herself to y'all. If y'all ain't willing to ask a motherfucking white man, this motherfucking explain himself. Y'all cool with the white man not explaining his self. She want my vote, she need to explain herself. You ain't motherfucking asking the white man to explain his motherfucking self. Well, she been in the office already three and a half years. Why she ain't do all the things she said she was gonna do? Cause she ain't the motherfucking president, that's why. When you go to the motherfucking mic, don't.
Starting point is 00:41:59 That lady that's the manager, she don't get to do what she want to do. She might can give you some prize, but she can't change the price of that mother quarter pound up though that ain't that mother later white house she just like the man you fall in line but y'all mother know this most of y'all but y'all just want something to say so we're asking 800-585-1051 what are your thoughts let's start with you lauren what do you think i i feel like on my timeline on twitter from what i see people are asking questions people are questioning like the biggest thing i see like people asking where was she why didn't she do this and the stuff about the the black man but a lot of that those questions and those things have been like debunked or like
Starting point is 00:42:33 people put more information but shouldn't people ask she's a politician 100 and she represents us and wants to represent us so yeah no matter if she's white black green yellow man woman if somebody's representing us wouldn't you want to ask them as much as possible to feel comfortable with them that's the reason for the campaign season that's exactly what's supposed to be done i just think because she's the new kid at school like it seems like it's a lot more her way but i think that that's just what comes with it and i just also think two people are sensitive when it comes to black women some people are and rightfully she's a politician right we did it we did it to b. We did it to Barack. We did it to Donald Trump. We do it to any politician.
Starting point is 00:43:07 We should be doing it more to politicians, right? A hundred percent. But I think no matter what, this whole campaign season and even when she wins, there's always going to be some sensitivity
Starting point is 00:43:14 from certain people because she's a woman and she's a black woman. So I think that's where Plies is leaning in. Like, he's jumping in on that state. But you're supposed
Starting point is 00:43:22 to ask questions of people. It just feels like it's all coming down on her once because she's the new kid at school. Plies is absolutely positively wrong. If people are asking questions, that's great. I don't even know why Plies is making this a black woman versus black man thing. This isn't about black men and black women.
Starting point is 00:43:38 It's about elected officials and potential voters. The whole point of campaign season is for candidates to go out there and explain to the American people why they should be the one in charge of this country. Votes are earned, not given. And they are earned through you going out there and explaining yourself. Vice President Kamala Harris has to go out there and explain her agenda and why she's the person for the job. Former President Donald Trump has to go out there and explain his agenda and why he should be the person to get his job again. You know, I get the job again. I don't understand plies or any black
Starting point is 00:44:05 person for that matter telling black people to just settle just accept whatever the candidate is giving you don't ask any questions they don't have to explain anything to us they've been doing a long time even with biden when we ask questions about it well it's the best two evils you know i mean you got to pick one but no if have questions, people should be able to ask. That's the point of a politician, right? They're supposed to represent us, represent our district, represent our country. Shouldn't we ask? And by the way, they should be explaining without us asking.
Starting point is 00:44:36 That's the whole point of them doing these press conferences and these meetings. The same way these politicians have meetings for their donors and they have rallies and press conferences explaining themselves and their agendas to certain groups, they should have to explain themselves to black people the same way. Plies is a billion percent wrong. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Jefferson. Jefferson, good morning. Where you calling from?
Starting point is 00:44:54 I'm calling from 914 Westchester, Yonkers, White Plains, Greenberg, New York. Absolutely. Jefferson, so what's your thoughts? What's your opinion? All right, so I'm a professional New Yorker, right? I don't know what Pops was really saying. I wish he could really communicate. He's a grown man. He's over 40. He should communicate better. But everyone thinking Kamala doesn't have to answer.
Starting point is 00:45:16 We're not even if I'm not voting for her or I'm voting for her. You still got to explain yourself on this type of level of job. That's right. I know we you know, I know we want to support off of the complexion, but we need to know that you're a good representation. Look, we had Obama. He was a good representation for us, a good entryway, a good marker. Kamala do the same. A lot of us, not just melanated people,
Starting point is 00:45:40 but a lot of humans are just looking at her for just like a direction. Just show us that you know what you're doing so we can really pump you how you want us to pump you out here in the public. She's applying for a job. What Ply is saying is like going to a room when you get requested for a job interview and don't say nothing.
Starting point is 00:46:00 I'm supposed to just sit there and look at you? If they took it easy on her, then that would be a whole issue, too. Like, if people didn't access of her because she is a black woman, it would be like y'all giving her a pass because of color. The same way people upset when people say they voting for her because of her color. Hello, who's this? This is Kia. Kia, good morning.
Starting point is 00:46:17 What are your thoughts on what Ply said? I feel like I agree with him, like, truly. I feel like people really don't want a black woman in the office. And that's the main problem. Like, y'all put Trump in there with a person that had no experience on political reasons. But when a black woman want to come in there and have experience, then for us, nobody want to give her a chance. Everybody shun her off. You think Donald Trump didn't have to explain himself?
Starting point is 00:46:42 You think Donald Trump didn't have to go out there to the American people and campaign? You didn't think Donald Trump? So all of those lies Donald Trump was telling folks and all of these things he was saying he was going to do, you don't think that wasn't explaining himself? No, Donald Trump, I feel like was an act. And an act that everybody loved at the time. And an act for what? I don't know, but it was an act. And it's like, now that he's in there.
Starting point is 00:47:04 It was an act, but he was still ad and it's like it was it was it was an act but he was still explaining himself that is what campaigning is when you see these people on tv and they're having these rallies and these press conferences and these interviews huh if you're acting for something if you're acting i'm being a character i'm not myself so how i'm going to give a person a true explanation on what i'm doing if i don't really know what i'm doing it's an act it's not the truth it's not what i'm truly trying to give once again once again when you see when you see people having these rallies these elected officials having these rallies these press conferences these interviews they are explaining themselves to the american people uh vice
Starting point is 00:47:40 president kamala harris and tim walls are doing an interview with nbc news this week because they're going to explain themselves to the american people just like last week at the dnc when she gave her speech she was explaining herself to the american people and she should like she should explain they all should yes just to say an elected official shouldn't have to explain himself is insane to me it sounds crazy i look at it like is is we're hiring them for a job and you have to make me want to hire you you have to make me want to vote you have to tell me your policies you got to tell me what your plans are and if I don't like it I don't have to hire you I'm not hiring you because of anything but what what what's my best interest and you got to explain that it'll calm down though now because
Starting point is 00:48:17 she's starting to address more things like people will just really have questions I think it will because it'll be repeated people get tired of hearing it. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.
Starting point is 00:49:01 Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

I'm trying to tell you, I just knew. That's why everybody feels like it's hitting her so hard. You know why it won't calm down?
Starting point is 00:54:04 Because every time she puts something on the table, it's going to be scrutinized. They're going to break it apart. Just like when every time Donald Trump puts something on the table, it's scrutinized, break it apart. J.D. Vance been explaining these cat lady comments for two, three weeks. You know what I'm saying? That's true. And he should have to.
Starting point is 00:54:18 But do you not feel like it's... So, I agree with that, all of it. But do you not feel like it's heightened a bit or sensationalized a bit because of her being a woman and a black woman? I think it's heightened and sensationalized for her because she came on to the campaign with, what, 90 days to win? Right. People got 90 days to make a decision. So, you know, after the debate ended and then, you know, a week later or however it was, she became the nominee.
Starting point is 00:54:41 Not officially the nominee, but everybody said she was going to be at the top of the ticket. She didn't give an interview for three weeks you know why everybody made that such a big deal because she only got she only had 90 plus days to win now she got 70 plus days to win because of the nature of her campaign and how she became the nominee that's why she's gonna get even more scrutiny 800-585-1051 what are your thoughts who apply said let's play it right now but to everybody who especially the ones who look like me the men who look like me who quit the actually carmela want my vote she need to explain herself to me what she gonna do for the black people listen stop asking the mother black woman to explain herself to y'all if y'all ain't willing to ask a mother white man

Now, if you're just joining us, of course, Lauren LaRosa's filling in for Jess. We're asking your questions about what Plies said. Let's listen to what Plies had to say over the weekend about Kamala Harris. But to everybody who, especially the ones who look like me, the men who look like me, who quit the, Kamala want my vote. She need to explain herself to me what she going to do for the black people.
Starting point is 00:56:32 Listen, stop asking the motherfucking black woman to explain herself to y'all. If y'all ain't willing to ask a motherfucking white man to explain himself, y'all cool with the white man not explaining himself. She want my vote, she need to explain herself. You ain't motherfucking asking the white man to explain his motherfucking stuff. Well, she been in the office already three and a half years. Why, why she ain't do all the things she said she was going to do? Cause she ain't the motherfucking president. That's why. When you go to the motherfucking mic, no, that lady that's the manager, she don't get to do what she want to do. She might can give you some prize, but she can't change the price of that

But y'all motherfucking know this, most of y'all, but y'all just want something to motherfucking say. All right. Well, let's take some phone calls. 800-585-1051. Hello. Who's this?
Starting point is 00:57:11 Yeah, this is Chris. Chris, good morning. Where you calling from? I'm calling from Florida. Florida. All right. What do you think about what Ply said? Yeah, so I listen to you guys every morning.
Starting point is 00:57:20 And I got to say, you guys say you're not very biased. But everything you guys say you're not very biased but everything you guys say is all about one side. It's never bipartisan man. I gotta be honest. That's why I'm calling. Explain yourself. Why do you say that? Well, Klaus literally just said
Starting point is 00:57:37 don't ask questions. She's a black woman. We don't need to ask questions. Just vote for it. And then Charlemagne was at the DNC. He said, oh, I like the message. He didn't tell us about a message. I did tell you about the message, but I also disagree with Plies. I feel like every politician should have to explain themselves, including Vice President Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:57:58 Like, I think it's ridiculous to tell an elected official not to explain themselves to the people that they want to vote for them. Absolutely. I mean, you know, the other day, too, you had somebody on that was, like, pretty much saying the same thing, like, I'm going to vote for her because she's black. That's Iceware Vezza from Detroit. He was being sarcastic, though. He was being sarcastic, though. He was saying
Starting point is 00:58:17 that's what people want him to feel and want him to think. Right, right. But I feel, you know, you guys have a huge following. A lot of people listen to your message. I think it's awesome that you guys come I feel, you know, you guys have a huge following. A lot of people listen to your message. I think it's awesome that you guys come on and, you know, spread the side so that we can get, you know, the right people in. But I just feel I listen every morning. I'm like, man, it's a little too one-sided.
Starting point is 00:58:36 I don't see how. We've had everybody from one side. We have people from the other side. Independence. Let me tell you why I love doing what I do. I love doing what we do here on The Breakfast Club. Because earlier this year, y'all said we were MAGA. Definitely said we were MAGA.
Starting point is 00:58:49 Now we back being liberal shills. Y'all got to pick. Which one is it? Which one is it? Hello, who's this? KP. Hey, KP. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:58:57 What's your thoughts? So I just want black people to understand that, yes, transparency is key when you're running a campaign. However, there is a process when you're running a campaign however there is a process once you you're running through policies it has to go through senate has to go through congress the president does not also have the ultimate power as we assume so y'all just keep up read the book y'all learn a little bit more what i got to do with what plies said though why i said that she the president she don't have to tell us what
Starting point is 00:59:23 what's going on but that's not true oh i agree that's right that's that's that's exactly right she yes that's what that was the question man i don't know why you tried to call up and you know shame was for not knowing civics hello who's this hey good morning what's your thoughts good morning i feel like as black men they need to ask themselves what have they done for the community as a black man what have they done for our younger black boys instead of why they're so upset with kamala and she needs to explain herself no explain why you haven't done what you need to do in your community before you sit and ask her what has she done i agree with what you're saying as far as uh you know before you point the finger at somebody else you should ask yourself what you're saying as far as, you know, before you point the finger at somebody else, you should ask yourself what you're doing.
Starting point is 01:00:05 But these are elected officials that are asking us for our votes to put them in these positions of power. So I don't find I don't think there's anything wrong with asking an elected official to explain themselves. Yeah, it's nothing wrong with that. But they need to ask themselves first. My thing is, what have you done? She's the vice president. She's not the president yet. Right. But she's running off. policy and things that she wants to do. And if you don't necessarily agree with her plans of what she wants to do, you can question that. Yeah, you can, but have they questioned the other person? What are you going to do?
Starting point is 01:00:37 All Donald Trump does is get questioned. All Donald Trump does is get questioned. People are just so, like, it's normal now. You're new to it. It's because she's a new kid at school, and it's the thing to talk about. Hello, who's this? Yo, what's going on, man? What's your name, brother?
Starting point is 01:00:51 It's D. D from where? Charleston. Okay, Charleston. 843, what's happening? What's your thoughts? What's happening, Charleston, man? Hey, man, I want to say this.
Starting point is 01:00:59 I ain't all the way mad at flies, but it's kind of like, hey, what's that Williams stand-up? You can't be a smart, dumb brother. You know, like that cat, like, it's smart to question the white man, but it's kind of like that Williams stand-up. You can't be a smart and dumb brother. You know, like that cat, like it's smart to question the white man, but at the same time, you can't be ignorant
Starting point is 01:01:09 not to question anybody who's running up for anything. I agree. You know what I'm saying? They got that problem and they say, show me a rich politician,
Starting point is 01:01:17 I'll show you a corrupt one. We can't say we grew up with this lady. We don't know her like that. Respectfully. Like, it's not his aunt. He speak up like his aunt or something. That's what I'm saying. grew up with this lady we don't know her like that respectfully and listen that's because a lot of people feel like that about her though and by the way respectfully i get it but but she ain't hey i'm saying this as a supporter of the vice president okay uh yes question her yes ask her to explain herself and i don't know why
Starting point is 01:01:46 we do this with every democratic candidate black people don't question joe biden don't question kamala harris cut it out black people don't settle ask questions make these presidential candidates explain themselves especially if you are undecided with your vote yeah comical underscore 007 i think he put it right he said this silly. Y'all are supposed to question the people who are representing you. You just don't want somebody that you don't know what they are focused on or what their policies are. You are supposed to question the people that represent us. It just sounds right. Stop it.
Starting point is 01:02:16 Applies. You're offending the vice president. She wouldn't want that because she knows what comes with this. She's been in politics for a long time. vp is tougher than most trust me as soon as she became at the top of the ticket even before that she knew what comes with all of this don't get me wrong she's still a human being at the end of the day but trust me she's she's built for the scrutiny she's built for the criticism she's built to have to go out there and explain herself to the american people and like charlemagne said and lauren said this as well you should be questioning everybody your local
Starting point is 01:02:47 congress people your mayors the people that represent your district uh the people that you are voting for even the even the principal at your school you should be questioning those people that represent you that's going to be pushing policies that's supposed to be affecting you you're supposed to be questioning all these people i've been supporting i've been supporting kamala harris since she was in the senate in 2018 when we first brought her up here on the breakfast club and i sat here and looked at her and told her i think she's gonna be president of the united states of america one day and guess what throughout that whole time i've supported her but i've also been critical of her i've also asked her tough questions that's just what you're
Starting point is 01:03:21 supposed to do so don't listen to nobody telling you that you shouldn't be asking these elected officials and these people running for office to explain themselves. That's the whole point of campaigning. I agree. Go out there and explain yourself to people. I agree. Come on, Plies.
Starting point is 01:03:35 Well, we got Jess with the mess with Lauren LaRosa coming up. What are we talking about? Yes, we are going to get back into Beyonce at the DNC and kind of what went down there. At this point now, it's turned into like a conspiracy theory almost. Like people are trying to figure out if that was all just staged to push some views and ratings behind
Starting point is 01:03:52 Kamala's speech. So we're going to get into that conversation. I need to know from Lauren LaRosa who used to work at TMZ. How did that happen at TMZ? How did TMZ get it so wrong? We're going to get into it. We're going to get into it. I have some thoughts. Alright. We'll get into that next. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy Jess Larr into that next. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 01:04:08 We are The Breakfast Club. Laura La Rosa filling in for Jess. Back to the work week. Now let's get to Jess with the mess with Laura La Rosa. News is real. What is the story? It's Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lie.
Starting point is 01:04:18 Don't do no lie. She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess. Worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. she don't spare nobody worldwide jest worldwide mess on the breakfast club she's a culture shift with Lauren La Rosa I'm back and I got the mess
Starting point is 01:04:34 talk to me okay so USA Today did a story a few hours ago and in that story they talked about how the fact that Beyonce did not show up to the Democratic, to the DNC is uniting people on both sides.
Starting point is 01:04:49 And here's why they're saying that. They're saying that because basically people on both sides feel like this was a rumored ploy that was done just to get people to pay attention to Kamala's speech because what we had thought, there were rumors online circulating that either Kamala, not Kamala, beyonce or taylor swift would be doing something for kamala's campaign
Starting point is 01:05:10 so people just assumed it was dnc related and then the day of the dnc tmz broke the story that beyonce was supposed to be there that chicago pd was on high alert because they were part of her security plan and in that same story they also told us that steph curry was going to be endorsing kamala at the dnc that happened exactly so one of two things happened steph curry happened and beyonce did not uh right before um or it may have even been at the same time um that that story went out um the emmy ruiz who is the uh the white house political director for biden she tweeted out a beehive i saw that on my timeline myself so i was like oh this is real the White House political director for Biden she tweeted out a beehive I saw that on my timeline myself so I was like oh this is real yeah the beehive emoji yeah the bee oh the bee yeah the bee um he's like wait I didn't get invited today um and then after that she had
Starting point is 01:05:55 to come back out after the story got debunked she had to come back out and be like sorry y'all my six-year-old took my phone I don't know so you asked me earlier I want to know Lauren because you were the senior news producer at TMZ. Yeah, one of you. What does that entail, meaning that you were behind every salacious headline? Salacious headline is crazy. We are journalists. I was behind every factual story that led pop culture for the last eight years.
Starting point is 01:06:18 Talk that talk, Lauren. With that said, how does TMZ get this so wrong? So when I first read the story I thought you know maybe they had talked to some law enforcement sources because they had the line in there about Chicago PD being heavily involved in her security and maybe security or Chicago PD was just put on alert because of the rumor of it potentially happening they have to prepare because that's a big thing right but then when I like remembered the Steph Curry part I'm, how did they know one thing and not the other? I think in my opinion, after reading this, after seeing Beyonce's publicist response where she posted the photo from home and said, stop believing rumors or reporting rumors or whatever.
Starting point is 01:06:53 But then you have this Biden White House political director tweeting out a B knowing what that will imply. I think that the story was actually correct. And I'm going with the theory that a lot of people are throwing out there now that because this was broken, the story was broken, leaked, leaked before Beyonce actually showed up. Now she's not going to do it because her security is compromised, potentially. Like there's a lot that goes into play when you bring a Beyonce into a, you know what I mean? A situation like the DNC, especially after Trump was recently shot and just like, you don't know where people's minds are. Well, Oprah's story got leaked. Like Oprah wasn't on the bill and that was a surprise but then that got leaked a few hours earlier that she was gonna be there she still showed up i think it's a little
Starting point is 01:07:33 different with beyonce no shade to oprah but i just think it's a little bit different with beyonce i agree i just do and the only reason not to say beyonce's bigger than oprah but in that you know it's other people there that they were protecting way heavier than they were to Beyonce, right? I mean, like, you know, elected officials, you know, people that actually run the country. That's true. Yeah, but Beyonce brings a certain heightened, like, situation into the conversation. More than a president? More than a former president? I mean...
Starting point is 01:07:59 More than somebody running for president? This is how much the world doesn't care about Beyonce. She didn't answer the phone in the middle of the report. No, I'm just saying. So I thought that they just got it wrong. And sometimes that happens, right? Because you do have trusted sources that you do trust who are valid. And they can be led to believe one thing because people are over-preparing for situations like this because there's so many public people.
Starting point is 01:08:21 If she was performing, it would be more than just security concerns. It would have to be music. It would have to be a whole lot into Beyonce. Well, the rumor was that she was performing, it would be more than just security concerns. It would have to be music. It would have to be a whole lot into Beyonce. Well, the rumor was that she was performing at Soldier Field earlier, but somebody would have
Starting point is 01:08:30 saw a sound check. Here's the thing. I think that somebody just lied. And I think that there was a bunch of rumors coming from probably a bunch of credible people and they were all just wrong.
Starting point is 01:08:38 And that's the thing, right? It's a lot of times in this, even if you are vetting stories as a journalist, and I know for a fact that in that newsroom they work through sources because they don't ever want
Starting point is 01:08:48 something like this to happen because it does go to question your credibility even though I think they'll be fine who getting fired anybody getting fired because of this
Starting point is 01:08:54 I don't think nobody's going to get fired because of this because I'm trying to tell y'all they had two major things in one story and only one was wrong that means
Starting point is 01:09:03 wherever that first thing came from that Steph Curry situation whatever that source was so you think it was supposed to happen supposed to happen squash and then also to you got think about a TMZ knows how big that story is coming from a TMZ yeah they ain't gonna play around with that they gonna triple-check confirm like I don't know but it does happen we've had blurb other other mix-up from TMZ remember they had killed little Wayne for a little bit I don't know but it does happen we've had blurb other other mix-up from TNZ remember they had killed little Wayne for a little bit I don't remember
Starting point is 01:09:28 that I remember I remember them saying that little Wayne was in the hospital and there was a priest there I guess print I don't remember them saying he died no he was there for a little bit then they had brought him back oh he did he was gone for a little bit but but again how does that happen good sources who had in the midst of a chaotic situation like that people just throwing things as it's happening like you know it's just sometimes it's not great being first you just want to be right especially national because i always go when you're first what when you're first you become tmz hello but i go to tmz because usually I know TMZ is 99% right.
Starting point is 01:10:08 This didn't change how you feel about TMZ, though, did it? No. It didn't me either. If you ask me, TMZ got popping when they called Michael Jackson. I'll never forget that day. They did Michael Jackson and it was the DUI with, what's his name? White actor. I'll look it up.
Starting point is 01:10:24 But his DUI was big too. All right. You got another story. You got time. Oh yeah, I do have another story. See, Beyonce then threw me all the way off.
Starting point is 01:10:31 Now I'm over here trying to figure it out. So in other news, demure. Have you guys been seeing people post very demure and very mindful? Yes. Yes. So that saying,
Starting point is 01:10:41 which comes from like a small clip from the Nanny Nanny Friend, the tv show there is a popular tiktoker named jules lebron and jules lebron uh put out this video talking about how they prepare for job interviews after or how they prepare to go to work after getting the job from interview let's take a listen see how i do my makeup for work very demure very mindful don't look like a clown when i go to work i don't do too much i'm very mindful while i'm at work a lot of you girls go to the interview looking like
Starting point is 01:11:10 march simpson and go to the job looking like patty and selma not demure so that went crazy you had j-lo recreating it serena glorilla kim k put it as a caption lindsey lohan it was everywhere so of course something is big the first thing people think is trademarking because now you want to do merch all that good stuff well jules did not submit the trademark filing first so tmz again broke a story um that there was a guy in washington state um named jason bates who had actually filed for a trademark for very demure very mindful and at the time they weren't sure if this was related to jules lebron come to find out it wasn't because jules lebron came back online and they were crying because they felt like they missed the mark to file a trademark and now this
Starting point is 01:11:53 person about to make all this money off of a video they made or a line that they may go back popular so but hopefully they can file something to try and get it not to happen. For what? Not if somebody had it first. He got it first. And it had nothing to do with that? Trademarking is not first come, first served, though. But if it had nothing to do with their saying, and you said it didn't, he could trademark his own thing. No, it does. They trying to trademark very demure, very mindful.
Starting point is 01:12:17 It's the same exact saying. Did somebody have it first? So he submitted his claim to trademark it market but trade market is not first come first serve Envy you know that so buy it from them buy it from them that's the way
Starting point is 01:12:30 business is what they are saying is that they don't have the money to do it so we gotta wrap this up we ain't got no money to fight that not my problem
Starting point is 01:12:36 alright well that is y'all real mean to disenfranchise this morning very slow very welfare that's what I'm getting from all of that that's the theme of this morning very slow very
Starting point is 01:12:46 welfare that's just with the mess with lauren larosa now donkey today who you giving that donkey man four after the hour we need jd vance to come to the front of the congregation we'd like to have a word with him please all right we'll get to that next so don't move it's the breakfast club good morning america america has a problem has issued a ruling on the extent of presidential immunity from criminal prosecution I'm telling you, I'm telling you.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection. It was literally
Starting point is 01:14:06 that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.

Starting point is 01:17:16 I shook up the world. James Brown said, say it loud. And the kids said, I'm black and I'm proud. Black boxing stars and black music royalty together in the heart of Zaire, Africa. Three days of music and then the boxing event. What was going on in the world at the time made this fight as important that anything else is going on on the planet. My grandfather laid on the ropes and let George Foreman basically just punch himself out.
Starting point is 01:17:45 Welcome to Rumble, the story of a world in transformation. The 60s and prior to that, you couldn't call a person black. And how we arrived at this peak moment.

Starting point is 01:19:08 Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Now, I'm about to say something that is so obvious and so basic. And what I'm about to tell you is that women make up a significant portion of the American electorate. Did you know that? Oh, my God. Fifty three to fifty five percent of the voting population in America. The America of the election. The voters are women. OK. Fifty three to fifty five percent of the voting population in American elections are women. So you have to be a pretty terrible politician to do things to upset that base all of you folks who uh championed abolishing roe v wade i am talking to you and that's why jd
Starting point is 01:19:51 vance is probably the worst vp pick of all time if i was donald trump i would have chosen a woman you know maybe nicky haley i just feel with the attack that the gop has waged on women's reproductive rights you need a woman on your ticket out there explaining that issue because trump and everybody around him with a penis are horrible at it okay especially jd vance now back in 2021 uh jd vance referred to vice president kamala harris as a childless cat lady who doesn't have a direct stake in the future of this country let's listen we're effectively run in this country via the democrats via our corporate oligarchs by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they've made. And so they want to make the rest of the
Starting point is 01:20:28 country miserable, too. If you look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC, the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children. Pete has two kids, though. Weird. J.D. in the JD in the JD stands for just dumb. Or maybe it stands for jackass donkey. Now, if you heard of running mate for someone, running with a person who takes credit for getting rid of Roe v. Wade, if you are that human, I would think you would want to clear that up because you don't want to have a ticket of men who just seem like they hate women. But no, that's not who jackass donkey Vance is. Okay, he was on Meet the Press yesterday and
Starting point is 01:21:05 told Kristen Walker that he doesn't have any regrets. Let's listen. Yes, I made a sarcastic comment years ago that I think that a lot of Democrats have willfully misinterpreted. But what I've simply said is that I think that it's really a profound change that's happened in our country where we become anti-family. And I would like to change that. Do you regret making that comment, Senator? Look, Kristen, I'm gonna say things from time to time that people disagree with. I'm a real person. I'm gonna make jokes. I'm gonna say things sarcastically. There are certainly gonna be things that I say. If I'm elected Vice President, people are gonna say, well, I wish he had said that differently. I think it's most important to actually be the
Starting point is 01:21:42 person I actually am and to say those sarcastic comments were made in the service of a real substantive point. Given that people have told you directly, have spoken out, have said that they were offended, they were hurt by those comments. Do you wish you never made those childless cat lady comments? I think that it's much more important for me to just be a normal human being who sometimes says things that people disagree with. I have a lot of regrets, Kristen, but making a joke three years ago is not at the top 10 of the list that explanation would work if it was me okay but not if you are running uh with someone who's running for president of the united states of america i just don't understand why you would choose to purposely insult 22 million people yes according to census data nearly 22 million u. Yes, according to census data,
Starting point is 01:22:27 nearly 22 million U.S. women between the ages of 20 and 39 don't have children. That's a lot of people to potentially piss off when you're running for president of the United States of America. Now, it's not a given, you know, those women will vote
Starting point is 01:22:38 for Madam Vice President. We saw that with Hillary in 2016. But if you're out here campaigning, explaining yourself to people applies as to why you should be president of the United States of America. The one thing you should be attempting to do is avoid purposely offending people, purposely pissing people off. Just dumb Vance. You said that women with no children should have less political influence because they aren't invested in the future in the same way as parents jackass donkey vans feels like if you don't have kids you're somehow less capable of understanding
Starting point is 01:23:09 or caring about the direction of this country i feel like you challenged 22 million women to a duel with those comments okay i believe those women are going to go out in november and show you how much political influence they actually have not to mention jd your opponent is a woman being that she's a woman there is not an interview you're gonna be in that you will not be asked about this eventually you're gonna have to walk it back just for political purposes okay i saw trump tweet out that his administration will be great for women and their reproductive rights this is when you don't listen to what a person says they're gonna to do. You look and see what they have done. OK, he put three judges on the Supreme Court that voted to abolish Roe v. Wade.
Starting point is 01:23:51 And Trump takes the credit for abolishing Roe v. Wade. And then he adds a running mate to his ticket like J.D. Vance, who thinks women with no kids have less value than women with kids. And J.D. refuses to walk that point back. Not even for political purposes will he walk it back. Let me explain to you why you should and it's really simple the idea that someone's worth or investment in society is tied to whether they have children is as ridiculous as you being chosen to be someone's running mate okay people contribute to society in countless ways regardless of whether they're parents and this notion that only women with kids should have a significant say in our nation's future, it's insulting and dangerous.
Starting point is 01:24:25 What about the millions of childless adults who work in education, health care and all these other fields that shape our communities? What about the women who physically can't have children or the women who choose not to have kids for whatever reason? You know, they do have that choice, right? I know you'll want to take away a woman's right to choose, but they still have a choice. I know you trying to score points with the MAGA base, but doing it while alienating a massive portion of the electorate. Women, that's just not good politics. See jackass donkey Vance, being a parent doesn't make you a better person or a more valuable citizen.
Starting point is 01:25:01 It just makes you a parent. Okay? Respect for others and their choices, however, is what truly makes someone worthy of leadership. You don't have those values. Please give J.D. Vance the sweet sounds. As a matter of fact, let Remy Ma give J.D. Vance the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw. Hee-haw.
Starting point is 01:25:17 You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. Mm-hmm. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. Mm-hmm. Now, let's open up the phone lines 800-585-1051 my producer sent me something that i guess he was looking at on spiritual work

It's that man. You got a man. And you're over 30. You got a man calling you. You blushing.

Can you find a good communicator? Why don't you think your daughter can find a good communicator? Not yet. I will, but not yet.
Starting point is 01:30:48 I think she can. I think all women can. It's just that you have to remember that that's what you want. Like you say, put it up and put it in the air. Put it in the atmosphere. Yeah, put it in the atmosphere. My son says the same thing, too. Some of these women put fornication before communication and that's the problem.
Starting point is 01:31:05 Wait, break that down. You care about sex before anything else. No, I think that's a guy's belief. I don't think that's a guy's belief. Not this new era city girl's mom. I think there are women that do that and I think that there are women who even if they don't want that to happen, they feel like they got to do that in order to get the man where they think they need to get him at. But eventually what you realize, and that's what I'm saying, you need to take the time. For me, I had to be single a little bit think they need to get him at. But eventually what you realize,
Starting point is 01:31:25 and that's what I'm saying. You need to take the time for me. I had to be single a little bit because I had to realize like what was important. Like I don't even, what? You said a little bit. It's been a little bit.
Starting point is 01:31:33 Okay. Majority of my life. I've been in relationships. And when I said, I thought about that, I'm like, you got to like, did you like any of these guys that Lauren was bringing home?
Starting point is 01:31:41 I love what Lauren loves. I love what Don loves that's theirs that means no really that means no that means yes okay lauren like to sizzle a little bit because i believe she really loved the guy that she was with oh man well how many years seven years ten years broke her heart no if, it broke both of their hearts. Aw. What about these girls she be dabbling with? What girls?

Yes, ma'am. And I'll be like, Lauren, that's your boss. Don't do that. I'm not her boss. I told her 50 times.
Starting point is 01:32:37 No, that's not true. And also too, you love who you love. I really like the fact that you indulge in all types of people So you ain't no Lauren like girls, too.

It's so bad.
Starting point is 01:33:11 Kendra, you there, Kendra? Yes, I'm here. Now, Kendra, it says, if I'm reading this right, it says you're 40 and you're single and very happy by choice. Yes. So, oh my God.
Starting point is 01:33:26 First of all, I cannot believe I am on the radio. Good morning, you all. Good morning. Good morning. I'm a single mother by choice. So I had my daughter be a sperm donation. And so we're a mom and baby family. I am 40.
Starting point is 01:33:41 I am single. And I'm very happy. I love the life that I have created for me and my child. But if a good man came along, you open to it, right? I am. I think everybody wants human connection. Sure. So I wouldn't be open.
Starting point is 01:33:59 Absolutely. I think that people get it wrong with single women. It's like you're not single because you're walking around with a i hate men sticker on your head it's just you don't got time for a lot of the stuff that come with certain types of men so yes a good man comes along yeah but all thank you kendra all the women uh paul 90 said in the post is that deep down every woman really does want a man but i think too it's a thing with women when you like if women just call the parents said you right i really do want a man i can't live without a man it's like as a woman you kind of feel like it puts yourself in a position to be vulnerable and we can't it's really tough to be vulnerable
Starting point is 01:34:33 with these guys what you want if you want a man tell the universe i want a man we'll take some more calls when we come back 800 man 585-1051 spiritual word yesterday posted there's no single woman above 30 who is being happy single no matter how you pretend to be deep down you want a man I was going to say why she tagged Lauren facts or cap 885-1051 it's the breakfast club
Starting point is 01:34:57 good morning Tell her. Made it. Just for some conversation. I'm telling everybody. It's DJ Envy. Jess Hilarious. I'm the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Call 800-585-1051 to join us for the discussion. And we're talking about, I guess, something that Spiritual Word posted yesterday. There's no single woman above 30 who is being happy single.
Starting point is 01:35:22 No matter how you pretend to be deep down, you really want a man. Actually tagged Lauren. so we ask it. Is that fax or a cap? They didn't really tag me. They did. Hello, who's this? Good morning, BJ, Envy, Charlamagne, Nagant, and Rosa. This is Monique.
Starting point is 01:35:35 How are you guys doing? Good morning. Good morning. What do you think? I'm 53 years old and happily single. I love men, and I have plenty of men in my life, but I don't have to have a singular one. Been there, done that. The pool has been pissed in and I'm good with what I'm doing.
Starting point is 01:35:55 But you got a roster, it sounds like to me. It sounds like you got a few men. Exactly. So that's the point. You're still making her point. Deep down, people love companionship. Everybody wants. No, no, no. You're still making her point. Deep down, people love companionship. Everybody wants. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:36:06 She said you want a man. That means that he is totally yours. You are totally his. But you have men's. But I'm totally mine. I go where I want to, with whom I want to. They can do the same. They're not mine.
Starting point is 01:36:19 You can't say, oh, that's my man. My man, my man. That's not my man. OK. When I call him and say, hey, we going on a trip? Yes, boo, I got you. Let's go. That's her man for that weekend.
Starting point is 01:36:30 She a player for him. And sometimes after you did it, she says she was 50? 53. 53, yeah. You get to a certain point where it's just, you exhausted. Hello, Ari. Yes. What's your thoughts, Ari?
Starting point is 01:36:40 Okay, so if we're being adult about it, and if I'm being honest, the answer is, it's true. Yes, ma'am. I initially said I'm fighting that. That is not a true fact. Everybody has different phases in their life. But essentially, I don't care what you're going through. If you're working on self-development, maybe it is okay in this moment over 30 to be alone to kind of focus. We're still looking for a partnership and companionship at the end of the day.
Starting point is 01:37:06 Okay. Well, thank you. Thank you for being yes you gotta if you want if we're being honest the key takeaway is happy if we focus on that that's true okay thank you for being real all right hello who's this why do you think we hate mensalina hey angelina good morning what's your thought um dj henry I'm 49 years old. I am retired military, and I am very single and very happy. If the right man came along, would you want to be with him? Of course. That is the whole point of the tweet.
Starting point is 01:37:37 All she's saying is that deep down, everybody really wants a man. No, not really, really want a man. See, I told you. It's that having to be vulnerable enough to say my life isn't completed without a man women don't be wanting to do that no more these men don't even be these is not the type that beyonce said cater to i promise you i'm gonna tell you something too man this is the big demo calling up here it's the big age demo this is this is our age and better calling up here this morning so imagine how we we feel. That woman before her was 50, the lady that just hung up was 39,
Starting point is 01:38:06 so she about to be 40. Imagine 32, 33, and you dealing with men under your age. And just because you've learned to live with something, like you've learned to live a certain way, doesn't mean that you're comfortable with it. No, and you should never be comfortable with anything that you can just sit in and be comfortable with, honestly. You should always be growing and wanting more
Starting point is 01:38:24 and to do more. Yeah, getting more better but sometimes it just be like better it got to be worth breaking my peace that's lauren lamose's mom that's it make you better now when when your mom said during the break that she wants more grandkids i seen that it kind of hurt you it didn't hurt me i hear it all the time she's going to get more grandkids but it has to make sense for me i tell my son too no you don't i do tell don dude ain't told him that because he would have had one night yesterday i never heard you tell him that no but he's so smart he's smart my kids are smart and i remind how you may clean that up You know who the dumb one is? No. I mean, my Lauren.
Starting point is 01:39:11 That we make smart babies because she's going to get her one. But you got to pick the right partner to make them smart babies. Well, she's smart. But that's my thing. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions. But you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self-preservation and protection. It was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
Starting point is 01:39:49 This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

Starting point is 01:44:08 Three days of music and then the boxing event. What was going on in the world at the time made this fight as important that anything else is going on on the planet. My grandfather laid on the ropes and let George Foreman basically just punch himself out. Welcome to Rumble, the story of a world in transformation. The 60s and prior to that, you couldn't call a person black. And how we arrived at this peak moment. I don't have to be what you want me to be.

Starting point is 01:44:56 Yes, ma'am. He wants the communication. He wants somebody to want to, you know, to have a happy life. But you know, there's some people.
Starting point is 01:45:04 Oh, trust me. That just men that just want to be miserable or just want to, you know, to have a happy life. But you know, there's some people, oh, trust me, men that just want to be miserable or just want to make their partner miserable so they'll feel good about themselves. That's right.
Starting point is 01:45:13 So she has to find somebody that's in tune that wants to be happy and then can take her happiness and enjoy it and then make it priceless. That's true
Starting point is 01:45:23 because no man or woman can make you happy. Happiness is something that you already got to have. So when we say we happy, then why is that a problem? Are you happy, Lauren?
Starting point is 01:45:31 I am. I'm in a really happy place. I'm in such a great space. But yes, my husband will find me and make it even better. But you got to make it better. You can't take away.
Starting point is 01:45:41 You can't take away the happiness. What's the moral? The moral of the story is I think what Lauren's mom said is very true the story is i think what lauren's mom said is very true uh communication i think communication before fornication and nobody's saying women aren't happy we're just saying that go ahead boy we're just saying that deep down everybody wants companionship men and women all right nobody wants to be alone well we got too much on us we do we're gonna get into speaking of kids and families
Starting point is 01:46:06 Eminem he dropped some music videos and some songs that are dedicated to his kids and his daughter Hayley is reacting to them oh y'all ain't gonna play Drake huh Drake dropped
Starting point is 01:46:14 three records y'all ain't gonna play not one record not talk about that's alright I'm gonna start the mix with a Drake record that's okay
Starting point is 01:46:18 we only can do one white boy per rumor report please only one white boy per rumor report yeah relax we need a little mocha
Starting point is 01:46:23 only one white man per just with the mess that's alright I'm gonna start the mix with some Drake if Yeah, relax. We need a little mocha. Only one white man per Jess with the mess. That's right. I'm going to start to mix with some Drake. If we do 100% white man, we can't do a 50% white man too. That's too much white
Starting point is 01:46:30 and the Jess with the mess. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's D.E.J. I love that line. Crop top with some biker shorts.
Starting point is 01:46:42 I'm showing off my moose knuckles and big glow. I know y'all guys would like that line too. I love that line. First time I heard it, I shorts. I'm showing off my moose knuckles. And big gloves. I know y'all guys would like that line, too. I love that line. First time I heard it, I was like, see, that's just realism that I like. Jesus. All right.
Starting point is 01:46:51 Well, let's get to Jess with the mess with Lauren LaRosa. News is real, brother. News is real. Lauren's Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lying. Don't do no lying. Hey! She don't spare nobody.
Starting point is 01:47:03 Worldwide Jess. Worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. She's a spare nobody. Worldwide jest. Worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. She's a culture shift. With Lauren La Rosa. I'm back. And I got the mess. Talk to me.
Starting point is 01:47:15 So Eminem has been dropping new music, as we know. And he recently dropped visuals for his song Temporary and his song Save Me featuring Jelly Roll. Now, these two songs in particular are geared toward his children. And we know famously his daughter, Haley, who talks about a lot in his songs. He's basically apologizing for choosing drugs over them for some time. And Haley has a podcast. So she responded to what it was like watching these videos in real time. Let's take a listen.
Starting point is 01:47:43 The Somebody Save Me music video is out i i watched it in entirety and i don't think i can do it again i definitely cry every time i hear it at all that between that and temporary i audibly sobbed i think for both songs but especially temporary but i will say i feel like my parents did such a good job growing up where I didn't realize how bad things were. But now, like as an adult in hindsight, it's so scary to think about. And I think that's why I get emotional so much. Like just thinking that that could have happened. I will say like if you've ever lost an addict or loved one i feel for you yeah she could barely hold back the tears in the podcast
Starting point is 01:48:30 i want i want to take a listen to the song temporary i'm sorry i want to take a listen to the song save me featuring jelly rose so we can kind of get a gist of like what she's referring to have you ever heard jelly rose uh original save me song with eleni wilson oh my god phenomenal phenomenal phenomenal record well listening to this one and watching the videos for this and Monroe's original Save Me song with Laney Wilson. Oh, my God. Phenomenal. Phenomenal, phenomenal record. Well, listening to this one and watching the videos for this and for Temporary, I kind of got a little emotional for her because I can't imagine just being a kid in that. And they actually have some of the video, like the home video footage from when she was actually a kid.
Starting point is 01:49:03 And then there's reenactments as well too but you know eminem had like a really bad battle with uh drugs and he like had like that almost fatal od in 2007 he like admits to like taking up to 20 sleeping pills a day sometimes so i can only imagine kind of what that was like as a parent trying to be you know that you're famous you got your kids and in temporary he actually that song is about him it's like he wrote it as if he didn't survive his addiction right and he's giving like some encouragement to his children basically saying like don't worry about me and the decisions i made y'all still have to live i would never be able to listen back to something like that i would break down gotta be gotta be difficult but you know it's
Starting point is 01:49:37 as parents sometimes i guess you don't you don't think about the effects at times when you miss your your child's guitar you know class or your you know the graduation or this because you always think well i'll make the next one well i was busy i was working i'll make the next one but you don't understand the effects that it has on your kids which is more important they don't your kids don't care about the money they care about having their parents actually there so he also was battling addiction yeah yeah and i think that's part of it so that's the reason he was missing all of that that that stuff you know he was battling addiction that's to me that's the moral of the story more than anything
Starting point is 01:50:09 like he was he got over his drug addiction and became a better man yeah well moving on um cam newton uh he had a pretty interesting conversation he sat down with a woman a therapist named dr brian yep and they talked about a lot of different stuff when it comes to dating and marriage and just like the family structure men versus women but there was a clip from the conversation that is going insanely viral we're going to get into it let's take a listen i'm not married i have beautiful children how many eight by how many women three i want more i just want god to bring them oh okay my desire to get married is lower than my fear of divorce. So as you would say it, Dr. Brian, I'm just taking my time.
Starting point is 01:50:49 You're not taking your time. I am though. You're being very action-based. You're not taking your time. You have eight kids with three different women. You are creating, procreating, and multiplying. That is not taking your time. You're being very selectively active.
Starting point is 01:51:02 Okay. You want to take your time in having a wife because of your own fears, but you will selfishly create broken families, even if you're in their life. But these families are still broken. Every child cannot have Papa in the house with them. So some child, if not all,
Starting point is 01:51:20 we'll end up with some kind of deficit without daddy being there. Don't sit with the lady. If you're not lady if you don't want to hear the truth. That's a great conversation. Let me tell y'all, the way she was, that interview was two hours long. I watched it twice. The way she was spitting in that interview, and honestly, I thought it was,
Starting point is 01:51:35 at first I thought it was a good dynamic because you know Kim Newton, he's going to push back. He's going to say how he feels. But then the second time I watched it, I was a little disappointed by him. Why? Because I felt like even though he was speaking what he felt and it was his truth, I think he wasn't as open and receptive to a lot of the things that she was saying.
Starting point is 01:51:50 And it was almost like he was trying to get the gotcha, I'm smarter than you moment rather than really listening to what she was saying from her point of view, which is why you brought her on the show. Well, that don't mean it won't hit him later. I hope it does, you know what I mean, hit him later. I don't know about a lot of his personal business, but i just always respected his conversations because he is really good at what he does and i don't know why he felt a little closed off to her in that conversation but i was like she handled it very well though that's what people say about nick cannon too as far as the broken home aspect of it oh dr bryan sat down with nick cannon too i'm surprised that didn't go viral so it did start that did start going rev-viral after this clip.
Starting point is 01:52:31 And then also, too, and this was kind of sad because she has nothing to do with this outside of the fact that she did have a baby by Cam Newton. But Jazzy, the comedian, the clip of her sitting down in an interview and talking about being a submissive woman to a man and all that stuff went viral as well. So a lot of people that got some shots following this interview. I like Dr. Brian. I would like to have Dr. Brian at this year's uh mental wealth expo which we're about to announce soon you know i do my annual mental wealth expo every year she should come up here as well she's in town all right yeah you like telling um women what they need in their life i think she could have a great conversation with you i don't like to tell no one what they need in their
Starting point is 01:53:00 life i don't tell them nothing i just when i hear y'all talk especially you y'all because you'll be sounding delusional delusional i'll just tell you the truth i think that my delusion my delusion is warranted because the conversation changed a lot the first one i don't need no man i don't want no man then i'm like lauren cut it out i've never said man you know that don't mean i'm not happy i never said you weren't i've never said i don't need or want i've said when i'm ready and my delusion is warranted. You know, I was in a couple of... The Lululemon. All right. Lulu Summer.
Starting point is 01:53:26 It's been a Lulu Lolo Summer. And I've been having a time. But I'm going back inside soon. So don't even worry. Well, that is just what the mess with Lauren LaRosa. So since Lauren doesn't like light skin, man. Whoa. Drake released three records over the weekend.
Starting point is 01:53:38 She ain't mentioned it one time. She ain't played one Drake record. She ain't even hint towards it. I'm going to start the mix off with Drake. Because you like light skimming, mama. I like black men. There you go. I like black men.
Starting point is 01:53:52 That's right. Let me explain. Black men mean all shades of men. She said all lives matter. Charlamagne the same. Charlamagne love is the same. Thank you, mama. Yeah, because you only like light skimming.
Starting point is 01:54:06 When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Envy. I know you like all men. Shut up. Back. Back. You're checking out the world's most dangerous morning show.

Starting point is 01:56:43 like what you say don't put the price out there, but it's expensive. You got money. No, I ain't got that type of money. That's why I'm asking anybody out there, if you got it. If you got it for cheaper,
Starting point is 01:56:50 let me know, because usually these, nowadays especially, these standalone arcade games don't cost as much. But the only thing I will say about this, this has a warranty.
Starting point is 01:56:58 Yes. It has a two-year warranty, so that might be worth it. Right. I don't know, but I want the Michael Jackson Moonwalker arcade game, so holla at me. You can pick the trim, the colors, and all that. warranty so that might be worth it right i don't know but i want the michael jackson moonwalker uh arcade game so holla at me you can pick the trim the colors and all that's what i'm saying
