Live from the Black Mothership in New York City, DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God, and Jess Hilarious. Thank y'all for being cultural leaders, man. I appreciate what y'all do for the culture. Collectively known as... Breakfast Club, bitches! leaders man i appreciate what y'all do for the culture collectively known as breakfast club i'm always nervous when i do the breakfast club because sometimes you say stuff and it's just

gonna get you everybody good morning usa yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo joe jess Good morning. Charlamagne Tha God. Peace to the planet. It's Monday. Yes, it's Monday. Back to the work week. Good morning. We are here. How y'all feel out there, man? How you feeling, Jess?

I feel good. I haven't been to sleep yet. Why? Yeah. How old you? Because I got my loan. I dropped off my truck and I got an electric car loaner. You didn't charge it?

I never, ever will ever do that again. Electric? Yeah, it's like you have to know where to go. If it's not Tesla, it's hard to find them. They usually make adapters, though, that you can use a Tesla. They didn't have, I guess, maybe not. No. Ain't nobody got time for that, man.

Your laptop and phone, it's hard enough keeping them charged up. Now you got to do that to a car? Yeah. A whole car? So I drove from my home because I went home this weekend. And it took me, it's only a four-hour drive, right? But I had to stop twice and charge the car. The first one was at the school.

Four hours got me, what, 15%, 15%? That's it? Yep. And then I went to like American something around, like in Jersey somewhere, and it got me the rest of the way. I will never do it again. Yeah, like you said, Tesla, because Tesla had them charging stations everywhere. Everywhere. Damn.

Yeah, but ain't nobody got time for that if you got to stop every... They usually give you about 300 miles, though, so when you fully charge, it's 300 miles. Some charges are stronger than others. If it's free, it takes longer to charge. That's right. Too much. Yeah. Well, salute to all dance dads.

I was at a dance dad weekend. I mean, from Thursday to Sunday, my daughter had competition. And when I just say it's a lot, man, it is a lot. So salute. It was supposed to be about 1,000 kids competing. Might have been probably about 20 dads. There was no dads there. It was nothing but moms.

There was no dads there. But I had a good time. So let me salute to Brooklyn. Brooklyn won number one overall in her category. Okay. She's from the age group from seven to nine. So every seven-year-old, eight-year-old, nine-year-old, she was number one in the competition. She won.

And in London, she is 10 years old. From 10 to 12, she won a special program where they only take five kids out of the thousand kids, and they take them on the road. So she won that this weekend. So my kids were super-duper excited. They're super-duper competitive. We had a good time. Like, I had a great time watching the kids. This is the first time I've ever seen a kid get a standing ovation.

Brooklyn got a standing ovation, yeah, which was amazing. I had a great time. I had a wonderful time meeting so many different people, meeting so many different moms that listened to the show. So I want to say salute to all the dance moms and dance dads out there. I had a great time. I had a wonderful time meeting so many different people, meeting so many different moms that listen to the show. So I want to say salute to all the dance moms and dance dads out there. I had a great time. Y'all showed me

a wonderful experience this weekend. And your bump is bumping this morning, Jess. I know. Lord, have mercy. I know. And the first thing Jess said to me

when she walked in, I said, hey, Jess, how you feeling? Hungry. Hungry. I mean, I'm so hungry. That's the crazy part about the world

that we live in now. Like, you really can't tell who's pregnant because everybody's stomach big. Oh, boy. But it's the crazy part About the world That we live in now Like you really can't tell Who pregnant Cause everybody's stomach big Oh boy But it's a difference Between pregnancy stomach And like just stomach stomach

You know what I mean Like stomach Pregnancy stomach Sits up Right You know what I mean Fat stomach Just falls

Don't you start With big fat stomach now I know You big fat stomach That sounds like Big fat stomach behavior Don't start that now There is Big fat stomach behavior Yeah It's talking, you big fat stomach? That sounds like big fat stomach behavior. Don't start that now.

There is big fat stomach behavior. Yeah, it's like no structure to it. That's right. It's just, you know. Absolutely. Jesus Christ. Well, we got some special guests joining us this morning. David Alan Grier will be joining us.

Yes, salute to David Alan Grier, man. He's starring in the new movie, The American Society of Magical Negroes. Yes. Which is out right now. That's right. And also, Jordan Belfort. The Wolf. The Wolf of Wall Street. Yeah, he's got a new is out right now. That's right. And also Jordan Belfort. The Wolf. The Wolf of Wall Street. Yeah, he's got a new book out,

The Wolf of Investing, my playbook for making a fortune on Wall Street. So he'll be here this morning as well. All right. Well, let's get the show cracking. When we come back, we got front page news.

Tess and Figaro will be joining us and it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front

page news what up Tess what's going on DJ Envy Jess Hilarious Charlemagne the guy happy Monday good morning let's jump right into it let's talk about Fannie Willis yes well we have been waiting on this well at least I've been waiting I know a lot of folks have been waiting to see what was going to happen in her hearing so Judge Scott McAfee ruled that Fulton County District Attorney Fannie Willis could continue prosecuting the election interference case against former President Donald Trump and his co-defendants. But the judge gave an ultimatum. Take a listen. Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee gave District Attorney Fannie Willis an ultimatum Friday, step aside from the 2020 election subversion case involving former President Trump or have her former romantic partner, Special Prosecutor Nathan Wade, withdraw.

Within hours, Wade tendered his resignation, effective immediately, to move this case forward. The District Attorney praised Wade as an outstanding advocate. The former president called him a disgrace. There was no evidence, according to McAfee, that Willis financially benefited from her roughly year-long relationship with Wade, which included trips to the Caribbean and California. But the ruling did note a significant appearance of impropriety. McAfee was sharply critical of Willis' behavior, citing a lapse in judgment and calling her conduct during a hearing last month unprofessional. So now the judge may also issue a gag order based on the comments that she made at the church at the MLK service.

That was a big part of the hearing, saying that she was basically calling Donald Trump, saying that this was all about race. There's also another thing that may come up as well. Donald Trump could possibly sue her for defamation. This is far from over, guys. So she has been given a green light. Obviously, Mr. Wade has resigned. We knew it would be him. Obviously, it would not be her.

But there's still a lot more that could happen with this. Congress is also asking her, the House Judiciary Committee, they've started an investigation. So we can probably look to expect um questioning with that and just so much more so many of the organizations that she's affiliated with uh that she has to be held accountable to like the bar could possibly you know question her as well so this is far from over yeah with all that you just said tez i wonder if it's smart for her to even stay on this case because she will continue to be a distraction and she will continue to be a distraction and she will continue to be a target.

And as far as headlines is concerned, you want the headline to constantly be that Donald Trump is on trial for attempting to overturn the results of an election. As long as Fannie's on this case, that seems like that's always going to be a B-story, sadly.

It's absolutely going to be a B-story sadly it's absolutely going to be a b-story even on this weekend uh donald trump was posting memes and we've seen this meme before uh with the uh when we was asked the question of has he ever been with her alone and then she pops up and you listen to the marvin gaye song and then you know because it takes he has a big long pause before he says no um so that's a popular meme that went around but when you have the former you know president of the united states and somebody that she's accusing of election interference you know posting that type of content he's absolutely going to post it he's definitely going to say that um uh that this was

a witch hunt he's going to believe that because of this and in addition to all the other stuff you know they're dealing with in georgia with um the throwing out the other charges that he's had. So, yeah, Charlamagne, it is going to be a distraction. We just have to be honest about this. I think the best thing is to allow somebody else, if nothing else, to be the face of this case. I know a lot of folks like that. You know, they'll say, oh, no, don't do that. You know, she shouldn't have to step aside. Trump would have to step aside. But at some point we have to look at what's more important ego or the case that's right because when trump puts those memes out you know he keeps doing stuff like that that keeps the fanny story to a side

and keeps trump attempting to overturn the result of an election the b side so yeah yeah i i wonder i wonder if it's even smart for her to stay on this case yeah i would much rather get off myself than be put out you know but so you know we'll see how it goes but um i i'm not sure if this case is going to move forward uh in august as they expected uh so you know we'll just see this is one of the strongest cases that they had against uh donald trump so this whole thing you know having to pause for two two three months or have a little on this has been just to talk about this has been a huge distraction so all right my latest front page news what are we talking next hour well senator bernie sanders is pushing for a 32 hour work week want to see if you guys are on board with that with

When we come back it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj envy jess hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club good morning let's get to jess with the mess jess is gonna bring numbers Okay, so in

UK news. UK news. In UK news, yes. Kate Middleton seen for the first time after surgery, allegedly. This is what they claim. Reports have been coming out that Kate has been seen for the first time, which is, like, I still believe it's

a lie, because there are no pictures. It's just hearsay, like, okay, she's been seen, she's been seen. I just think this is another PR stunt, because since I reported this, so many people have been looking for her, in and out the country. Really? Yes. We got people over here, like, oh my God, since Jess told us about it, now we want to know where she at. You're doing good. You're doing good out there. Because we're trying to figure out over got people over here like oh my god since jess told us about it now we won't know where she at you're doing you know you're doing good out there because we're trying to

figure out they over there and over here is this another princess diana situation we don't want that they're saying that she was seen but we ain't got no pictures yet but it's believed that prince william got a little mistress okay yeah that's what i went during my digging that's what i found out as well her name is sarah rose hanbury you got names yes excuse me i'm sorry yes and i have connects um sarah rose hanbury she is the marchioness of chalm delhi i that's what yeah okay marchioness of chalm delhi okay so the mistress has a baby right and it's rumored that that baby might be Prince William's baby. The baby name is Iris. Yes. She has other children as well, but this one

they're trying to say that it may be Prince William's baby. So Prince William's married to Kate Middleton. Absolutely. So is it really a mistress if you can't find your wife? Or if you had one. That's another situation. In 2019 Kate asked William about this alleged affair with Rose because, let me tell you something,

Rose was in the circle Rose used to get she's like a good friend of the Royals and she is also a wife to one of William's old friends David Rock Savage that's one of his friends yeah so he asked her he laughed it off like

girl no it's nothing to it when she asked him when Kate asked William about it in 2019, and, like, we still have yet to see them together, the mistress and Will, but we know what Rose

look like, and we know what Kate look like. And we haven't seen Kate. They put a little picture up under that headline, but that picture, something's telling me that she took that before she even went in for her surgery December of last year so you know I mean of January this earlier this year because she not seen with nobody they just found another picture that she probably never posted and they put it of her and that's crazy

and then also in the in the photoshop picture of um Kate and the three kids from Mother's Day over there in UK, her ring wasn't on. That's what I forgot to tell y'all. Her ring wasn't on. Her ring wasn't on. What's up, y'all? This is Questlove, and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family-friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right.

Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records.

Check it. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Ever since you've been doing these UK news stories, there's been a lot of sightings of Kate Middleton in Baltimore.

I promise you Kate Middleton is not in the Whole Foods in Baltimore, y'all. No. I promise you. And I promise you nobody said that, and I'm not playing. This is not a joke. It's not a joke. Take it serious. Yeah.

I'm just telling you what I heard. I'm too tired to be playing today. Now, moving on. Man in wheelchair goes on a stabbing spree in Queens. I seen that. Yeah. I seen that. Now, no spree in Queens. I've seen that. Yeah. I've seen that. Now, no disrespect.

I know. I know. The suspect is a man in a wheelchair, like I said, and we have the report from CBS New York. Police called to 54th Street near 31st Avenue in Woodside around 1230 Saturday for reports of two people stabbed. Investigators say the suspect is a man in a wheelchair. The second victim, a 69-year-old

woman, suffered far more serious injuries and remains at Elmhurst Hospital. Police are questioning him, trying to understand his state of mind. Now a woman is hospitalized with serious injuries to her face and torso. And tonight, police have not yet identified the man that they are questioning. So far, no word on potential criminal charges. i'm thinking like nobody caught this nigga right but then i was doing some oh hold up hello okay thank you yes he is in custody they just caught him absolutely we just called you we just called you i can't reveal it but i'm just saying yeah yeah they actually did catch him they they they been calling him but they just called me because i told you know I talked to these people and told them I was going to report this story. And that was the only report that I had heard from CBS New York that he was not identified.

It was not like he was on the run. No, they caught him going up a ramp. Really? Wow. Yep. And the crazy thing is, I'm like, all right, if you were the second person, how do you see him rolling up on you to stab you? That's what I was thinking. Because y'all not thinking.

She's a 69-year-old woman. Exactly. She's 69 years old, and you're not suspecting somebody in the wheelchair to do something like that. But what about the other two? I want y'all to see you stab one. You think he just stabbed him in a row? Like, you just think he just went down the line on one block? Shank, shank, shank.

You think, come on. Shank, shank, shank. I know that's not what happened. Well, you don't know. You don't know what's happened. Knock it off. That's like if somebody came in his room and stabbed one of us, you're like, oh, shoot. I'm sure he didn't just go down the block stabbing people.

If we see him stab you, me and Jess running. Like, he ain't going to catch us. You're not thinking. That's not how this happened. I'm sure these were different incidents at different times throughout the day. Oh, he just randomly just stabbed people throughout the day. Yes, and probably he unsuspecting. He walking up on you with a Starbucks cup in his wheelchair.

He's not walking anywhere. He's not walking anywhere. He's rolling up on you. I didn't say he was homeless. You said Starbucks. Okay, Starbucks. I'm thinking. He's rolling up on you. a Starbucks cup in his wheelchair? He's not walking anywhere. He's not walking anywhere. Now you don't tell me. He's rolling up on you. I didn't say he was homeless. You said Starbucks. Okay, Starbucks. I'm thinking exchange, my bad.

He's rolling up on you. You know what I mean? You're not thinking nothing of it. This guy in a wheelchair. Okay. Well, he is in custody, and I hope he serves a lot of time, because that's crazy. I don't care if his legs work or not. You don't roll up on him by and stab him.

Alright, now, um,

what up, Tiz? What's going on, DJ and me, Charlamagne Tha Guy, Jess Hilarious the Queen. Good morning. Now, Odell Beckham, we're gonna start off with some quick sports. Odell Beckham Jr. Looks like he's saying goodbye to Baltimore. They didn't re-sign him with the Ravens. What team? What's a good fit

for him, Charlamagne? What do you think? Anybody I have no idea. Odell is older now. He's been in the league 10 years, but he still did what, like 500 yards last year? He said he wants to go to the Chiefs. The Chiefs? Yeah. All right, well, let's jump right into it. Let's talk Bernie Sanders. Senator Bernie Sanders is pushing for a 32-hour work week with the same pay as 40 hours.

Now, we've heard about this many, many times, but Bernard is still pushing and fighting a good fight. Take a listen. Any full-time workers, the amount of time they work in a week could look a little different. A new proposed bill introduced by Senator Bernie Sanders would establish a four-day work week in the U.S. with no reduction in pay. The bill would lower the threshold required for overtime pay from 40 hours to 32 hours as a way to create a better work-life balance and productivity. But some say this might create difficulty for employers to implement it across their workforce and have potential negative impacts on business operations. Businesses are struggling right now with

workforce issues so there aren't enough employees. So having a reduction in hours of employees, I think would really create a burden on businesses and organizations getting their work done and doing the things required, you know, to be successful with what they're doing. I love it. I think it's great. I mean, who the hell is going to complain about getting the extra day off and you get the same pay? Who the hell wouldn't be for that? So are you working the same amount of hours, like extra days on Monday, I guess, the other days? Or is it less hours?

No, 32-hour work week. So less hours. Yeah, 32 hours. People ain't going to go with that. Because there's going to be a lot of businesses that can't open. When you say people, you mean the businesses. Yeah, businesses. There's going to be a lot of businesses.

The employees and the people that's working absolutely want that. The businesses may not go for it. There's going to be a lot of businesses that can't open on certain days there's gonna be a lot of businesses that have to uh shut down early and i think it's gonna affect people it's gonna affect people too like when people need to go to grocery stores or shopping or whatever stores they go to a lot of their stores are gonna be closed because they're gonna be nobody working there so what charlamagne is saying is the people who are working are gonna be with it and envy is saying what the people who want to pull up on that friday or that sund Sunday kind of like how we already have to do without Chick-fil-a on Sundays

right people will be like no I want my business to be open but let me give you some other points because there might be some employees who say no I don't like this because they're going to have fear that their jobs may be sent overseas so let me give you just a couple of pros and cons to it so Republican Senator Bill Cassidy in Louisiana said the 32 work, we will destroy some employers and employers will have to ship those jobs overseas. They'll also automate those jobs. You know, we already have to deal with AI coming in and taking folks jobs. They said, this is a way that this can actually make it happen even faster because of the increased expense. And it would dramatically increase prices to stay afloat. Meaning so if a business to Envy's point of view, if a business has to reduce hours and they may have to up the charge on other things

to make that difference. Now, some folks are saying this would never work, but you can look at Spice Iceland and South Africa. They are some nations who have implemented this trial for their work week for select companies. They also here on in America, Massachusetts has introduced a bill last year that will provide employers with a tax credit if they shift to at least 15 workers to four days a week. So there's a way of getting around it there. And then in California, lawmakers have introduced the standard work week at 32 hours. So if that bill goes through, we'll get a chance to see how it looks in real time. So what do you guys think? You know, Dubai and Abu Dhabi have 48 work weeks as well.

I think France, too, if I'm not mistaken. I know Italy and I know France, they shut down for the month of August. The month of August, they shut down. Nobody goes to work. They totally shut down. So if you ever try to order something, like if you try to order furniture or whatever it may be, they'll tell you you have to do it before a certain time because they shut down. It's called summer shutdowns where they say the quality of life is better.

I don't know if that's true or not, but I wouldn't be mad at things like that as well. And also, is everybody going to have the exact same day off? Like, is it going to be everybody off on Friday or do they stagger it out? They're going to have to stagger it out. Yeah, if you stagger it out throughout the week, that would ensure that, you know, the businesses won't ever close. You know, I think i like the so the consensus is charlamagne saying he's not mad at it envy saying wait hold on let's slow down and kind of see and you know what it's gonna look like and also we was we're saying things like you know businesses would have to close no they wouldn't because people have days off now and the businesses don't close so what are we talking

about so what are you talking about then envy when you say that because if you have extra day off so usually you have saturday you have two days off but you know some businesses only have one worker two workers in it and those businesses what do they do they stay open though is what i'm saying like they they they're open most businesses are open seven days a week i don't know we'll see we'll see what it looks like and they said this may not pass but you know it's all about the things that you that you fight for you know it may not actually happen but you have to continue to keep putting on the floor continue to have the debate it sounds like i like it i think you get more out of your employees you know i mean when you give your employees days off you know to reset mentally to reset physically to reset emotionally i think you'll get more out of your employees that

way you absolutely are you're right on that and the data shows that charlamagne for sure but you know there's just still the conversation if you reset and then ai take over your your job you're gonna be resetting without a job too so i think there's some balance i think it depends on the industry depends on the job depends on you know i do like the idea of giving employers tax credit for those that can't afford to do it kind of giving them the choice um rather than mandatory so you know we'll just see i'm i'm with it so i just think it's difficult because if that means the the hourly and wage will go up right because that means you're not working 40 hours a week you're working 32 hours a week you're making the same payment so instead of making 20 now you're really making like 28 an hour and i don't know if businesses can actually

survive with not having workers working at that time. Right, that's what they're saying. That's why they're saying they're going to have to make their money somewhere so they might ship some of those jobs overseas or the price, if it's a retail store, they might up the price because you're right, they still have to pay.

This makes them still pay for 40 hours a week. So you're right. Yeah, and working more is not going to keep AI from taking your job, okay? When AI is ready to take jobs, gonna fire y'all because it's cheaper to have ai so don't think just because you work more it's gonna keep ai from taking your job well that's our post positive note then for the day what else i do want to tell you this quickly though speaking of workers hope we got a little bit of time um you know we talk about all the time folks call in, you know, about plumbers and carpentry.

And I just want to let you know there is a report that says that licensed trade people who install and fix bathroom fixtures, the lack of those folks have drained the economy, 33 billion since 2022. Now, this report says that the U.S. will be short 550,000 plumbers by 2027. They said that the plumber shortage is driving costs for families. It hurts businesses as well because you can't expand new businesses. It also creates delay in floods. It's also the plumbing. People don't want to be plumbers because, you know, the negative, I guess, stereotype about it.

So they're having a hard time recruiting. A lot of young folks don't want to go into being a plumberumber even though it's well paid but you know it doesn't have a glamorous reputation so they are saying that the u.s needs more carpenters electricians and other technical trade people and employment at trade schools has has fallen as more young people are opting for a four-year college degree so i thought there was some good data to put out there that's something we talk about all the time on the breakfast club. Yeah, salute to all the trade schools. Shout out to Lincoln Tech. But like you said, yeah, we always need plumbers, carpenters, electricians, and HVAC people.

Those people are so needed each and every day. And we need it back in the schools. So continue to push for that. Absolutely. Thank you, Tess. Absolutely. Thank you. And make sure you follow at TeslaFigaro on all social media platforms. And subscribe to this great Shot No Chaser podcast on the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network hosted by TeslaFigaro.

All right. And when we come back, comedian and actor David Allen Greer will be joining us. He has a new movie, The American Society of Magical Negroes. We're going to talk to him when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Man, the great David Allen Grizz. What's up, man? How are you this morning? I'm great, man. I woke up.

That's right. You know, I lit up. I'm here. You look so good still. Thank you. Yes. Now, is that a compliment? Yeah, it is. You say you look so good still. Thank you. Yes. Now that is, that's a compliment. Yeah,

it is. So you look so good still. No, I mean, you always look good. Back in the day to now. I love it. The American society of magical Negroes.

Yes, sir. What is this movie about? Oh, well, you know, a magical Negro was a trope that Spike Lee coined back in the 90s. And Magical Negro is that character we all know.

He's an all-knowing, all-wise black character. No backstory, no family. He was just a dude hanging around and he had to answer everything. He was like, I can fix that rocket ship. Driving Miss Daisy, the Green Mile. You you know we've seen all that stuff so it's about a society a mythical society of uh these black people all over the world that de-escalate and intercede in conflicts with white folks to save and preserve black lives that's basically what it is is it a movie for white people? Because the title itself, they wouldn't even become people saying it.

But like, you know what? You'd be surprised. The reaction to the clip. You know, this is the world we live in. Nobody saw the movie. They just reacted to the clip. White people come to me. Can I say that?

I was like, say what? Magical. No, no. The N word? I was like, what N word? So it was like, Negro is the other n-word it was like y'all are more worried about negro than you are the real n-word so that was a paradox i mean i'm older than you guys i grew up in a time in which during the civil rights struggle we aspired to be called Negroes as opposed to but that was long ago. So it's a

satire, it's commentary on all of that whole notion, a little love story and all of that mixed together. But it's interesting though because in the movie they are trying to make white people comfortable but it's a movie that will make

them uncomfortable I think. Yes. Well, that's the subversion. Okay. Because, you know, some black people are like, well, that won't make nobody comfortable. Yeah. I think some black people want it to be like the magical society would be really a subversive militant group taking out all racist white folks. But that's not really this movie.

That's not really this movie that's not really this movie but um yeah man i mean that's what we're doing but when you make a movie you wanted to i guess reach a broad audience right or do you care if this one does always all right i mean that is the goal but kobe our writer and director he's a first time writer director black and i say that because i've been asked a lot of times you know what was your first question after i read the script well my first question is did a black person write this because i'm gonna tell you why if i would have been told oh this is a first time white director i don't know if i would have done it because i didn't want to spend six to eight weeks

and believe me i've done this. Well, I have to explain. Blackness. Exactly, man. I can't say this. This is offensive. You need to rethink this. I didn't want to. That's why.

Yeah. No, I didn't want to do that. So once I found that out, I said, OK. And I like working with young directors of color, young women of color directors you know um because it's why my way of mentoring in terms of i want to show you how you should be treated on a set as a young director because i've seen i've been in situations in which the director is arguing with the cinematographer with the lighting designer you can't do that well i want to shoot no man we're not gonna do that so i you know i wanted

to kind of uh show through action this is how it should be run we didn't have any trouble it was you know it's great great experience yeah so you play roger yes so when you first were presented the role what about it like got you interested interested in being sci fi comedy being doing. Well, you know, I know black men like that. I mean, I was exposed to when I when I was young and growing up in Detroit, my dad was a doctor. I grew up around doctors, lawyers, professional black families. But I didn't want that. I wanted to be an artist. I want to be an actor. So I got that. You should wanted to be an artist I wanted to be an actor so I got that you should go

to law school yeah um that kind of thing uh it's funny my grandmother was born in 1900 so she would tell me stories much like the one I say in the movie about these racist incidents in a segregated America in the south and as a a little boy, I would say, well, grandma, why didn't you fight back? And she would say that was the way it was. And I didn't want that. Yeah, I didn't want that. I'm going to fight back. That's right.

So that's that's always the way it is. The next generation, they don't want to wait. They don't want to wait. John Lewis was the radical young voice in the movement and he was the one advocating we kind of yell louder we have to fight harder I'm tired of marching and praying so there's always that friction so a lot of that is um goes on between me and justice where he's like Negroes I mean magical man come on why don't you magical society of black folks i mean they can do something about the name you know so there's all that playfulness and stuff it felt like justin throughout the whole movie was struggling with

belief in himself absolutely it all leads up to that final speech where it to me it really hits home. I just want to live in a society in which you're not trying to kill me. I deserve to be here. Be in this presence. One of the craziest lines when he's talking to his white co-worker and they're

talking about An-Li who's a love interest and Justice calls him out about some microaggression. And he says, well, I didn't know she was a person of color. I thought she was white. So therefore, I'm good. You know, it's like, was she white? I could use biracial.

I read. So Asia and Justice is what I am. I've had situations like that. Right. Or a black person who is maybe Afro-Caribbean, and they're saying some foul stuff. Well, I don't know. I didn't know. So therefore, I'm in the clear.

Right. You know, and all those nuances that I really like, because it's real, too. I mean, I know I've been through it. Yeah. All right, we got more with actor David Allen Gray. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, too. I mean, I know I've been through it. Yeah. All right, we got more with actor David Allen Gray. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just. So, y'all, this is Questlove, and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right.

A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey y'all, Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama

who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with David Allen Greer. Charlamagne?

It's funny. Youlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with David Allen Greer. Charlamagne? It's funny. You talked about the backlash. I guess I saw a little bit of it when the trailer first debuted. It was like, they're making a movie, and there's a bunch of black people with magical powers. They're trying to make white folks. That's what I said. They wanted, they cloned Tyrone. They wanted us to come out with guns.

No, that's not what it is. But I was never worried worried because at that point nobody had seen the movie again you're responding to a 30 second clip but that's the world we live in yeah it's you know social media people gonna say what they gonna say yeah i didn't look at it as they were trying to make white people comfortable in the movie i looked at it as they were trying to be comfortable like they were trying to just figure life out and survive like that's what they exactly now i'll tell you something this happened when i was in 10th grade in detroit i remember a detroit police officer was brought into a class my classroom

and he walked us through surviving a stop with the police now i doubt if it happens now so he basically he gave us the talk. And it went like this. He said, you know, when a police officer pulls you over, what are you going to do? Well, we were kids. I'm not going to do nothing. I'm going to say, why did you pull me over? And he said, well, you can say that. But what I would suggest is you keep your hands on the steering wheel.

And you roll down the window. Well, why? He can't make me roll down the window. Absolutely right. But keep in mind, that gentleman has a firearm. You probably don't. Now he's upset with a firearm. I would suggest you roll down the window because if you don't roll it down, he's going to break it. So we went point by point by point by point how to survive.

You can fight in court. Now you could fight at the roadside, but you have a better chance of survival can fight in court. Now, you could fight at the roadside, but you have a better chance of survival to fight in court. So those are the kinds of things that I experienced as a young person, and I think a lot of that goes into that character. I'm not that character, but I understand that character. Right. You know, that kind of thing. In Hollywood, is there such thing as having to make white people comfortable in order to work

um no but I mean you know when I think back you know I auditioned for some of them magical negro roles I was just too crazy to get on they never cast me they said okay David David's reading for Rastis I'll drive you

I was always too nutty to my benefit. But yeah, man, we all do. I mean, not everybody, but those are because, you know, in the 80s, there was Eddie Murphy. This is before Spike Lee and these other voices. He was the black comic lead, you know, who took over for Richard Pryor. But now we have all these black creators black female creators isa ray uh ava duvernay who's a revolutionary absolutely um

you know so we have more voices that makes it healthier the one question i hate is you know charlamagne what do all black people think lord char, Charlamagne, what do all black people think? Charlamagne, Charlamagne, what do all black people want? Charlamagne, Charlamagne, who are all black people going to vote for? I don't know. I'm not all black people. You know what I mean? I encourage everyone to vote.

I'm not sitting here trying to tell you who or what to vote for, but we have a healthier democracy when more people participate. So that's where I'm at. Now, speaking speaking of voices you are the voice of the asker yeah how was that you know it was so much fun man i'm old friends with jimmy kimmel and first of all i defy you to tell me who was the voice last year so you have been offered a job like it was really great, but you don't even know what the job is? Yeah. So my first question was, well, how many tickets do I get? I was thinking about the party. You know, I have a 16 year old daughter. And when she was a little girl, she said, Daddy, take me to the Oscars. And if you have little kids, they think you could do everything. I was like, OK, I mean, but you got to get a movie and you gotta finance the movie and you gotta cast me daddy in the lead in the movie and then you gotta hope daddy gets nominated for

an oscar then we all gonna go to the oscars and she was like you so silly so it was great to take her to the oscars and we had a great evening and it turned out to be a ball man I mean uh my job was not to screw up anybody's name and don't mess up the name of the movie. Yeah. But I didn't really, I wasn't under pressure. You know, I'm cool. It was really, really fun though.

It was cool. What do you think about people supporting this movie? Like the American Society of Magical Negroes and you hear that automatically all black people feel like they should go out and support these films. What do you feel like if they don't? Listen, I would not be here if i didn't believe in the movie i would say go watch it if you don't want to watch it that's fine i ain't gonna come to your house and you know kill you we all have a choice uh it should be an evening of entertainment and a great

viewing experience is one that elongates a conversation because you know good and well if you see a great show or if you see a great movie, what are you going to do? You're going to text your friends. You're going to tell your loved ones, man, you got to come see this. So if we're successful, that's what should happen. And again, I think the movie is really funny. It's a new voice, a new black voice that I really love to support and hopefully he will hire me again you know but that's why i'm here it's mad and also it made me think like the magical negro trope and i know spike lee made it up but isn't that something that like white people think

in a way it's like like barack obama was a magical knee well but they but they they created it. We didn't create it. Yeah. We didn't create that. No, white people did. And traditionally, to have that character, that is not a whole human. That is like a spirit, a cipher. I mean, this is like an angelic figure. You know, that's not what we wanted. What we wanted is to be included as whole people, whole human beings. But ultimately, you can't depend on someone else to tell your story. You have to tell it yourself. Now, the way it used to be, we weren't allowed to tell it ourselves.

And I still got up until a few years ago, David, we like your idea, but it's not us. It's the international market. You know, black movies are very hard to sell this and that. So there's still all of that out there. But in fact, mixed race casts of big movies are the biggest sellers in the world market the fast and furious franchise say what you want has the most diverse cast probably of any franchise and it is the biggest selling yeah and one of the reasons is that okay yeah so for a long time we were sold a story that was not true. And we're changing. I say we, the industry, they, whatever you want to call it, not enough, but we're changing. I think Hollywood lies. And the reason I say Hollywood lies is because they'll say,

oh, you know, it's about the money. But I know, I think your bias is Trump, the money, a lot of times. Well, also power. You know, I remember when barack obama was first elected and i was watching i think it was in msnbc and the reporters were just giddy because it's a fact that the electorate is changing and becoming blacker and browner every day and yay we're going to be in power and i sat at home going you don't think white people can hear you you don't think

they're listening because to expect someone to relinquish power gracefully is a fantasy to to expect uh the old power structure to say well it's our turn and um give us the keys okay it doesn't go like that and i think that really is at the root of what we're seeing now because if the electorate is changing now all of a sudden you hear the manga crowd going well maybe a dictator is not that bad because the numbers are not working in their favor so you know that's what it is i knew this was coming because you know it's just it through history it never gone like that all right well don't move we got more with david allen gray when we come back it's the breakfast club good morning everybody it's dj envy jess hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast

club we're still kicking it with actor david Grier. We're still kicking it with actor and comedian David Alan Grier. Jess? Being an OG in comedy, and I'm a comedian myself, so I would like to know this. What are your thoughts on all the beef with the comics and everything that's going on right now? First of all, what I was going to say when I walked in here is I said, y'all need some brown liquor up in here. Look. It's common sense.

It's over there. No, no. You need it right here. Now, it's common sense. No, no. You need it right here. Now, it's common sense. Watch Club Shay Shay. I love Shannon. Yeah, I do too. We do too.

It's the ratio of sips, ma'am. He takes one sip while the guest is taking five or six. That's right. I saw Monique. About at the hour end, she was licking up. She was lubricated. I don't think Shannon drinking at all. No, man.

Watch it again. He's real slick. He goes, I think that's Charlemagne. Who you want to kill? You're like, everybody. I want to kill everybody. You know, he said, here, have some more. He's like, Charlemagne.

Who you want to slap? Everybody. You know, man, you can get me up in there my advice is bring your own cup bring your own cup man stop drinking what is in that bottle damn y'all man that's not really my thing man i don't do all that and at this point if somebody goes on club shea shea they're loaded i mean they packed you go in there for a purpose you're not going there to talk about your big new novel you wrote you trying to settle some scores it's crazy man it is crazy uh i'm just a spectator i don't think i've seen one interview in its entirety because they go like two three hours yeah i've seen clips it's bizarre i'm like y'all i'm drinking coffee going damn i guess they don't like each other yes yeah man you know what i want to see this last question i know you gotta go

listen i would like to see a living color reboot i know you asked me last time we can't do that why even if you write for it then you cast me what i do think i think the next generation has to do their version of it you know you guys say that it was like remember coming to america everybody goes oh man you should bring that back oh they should reboot that they rebooted and everybody said well y'all didn't do it right yeah i mean it's like the original movie was a comedy yeah it was not a history of ancient african royalty so you know you wanted to bring it back and then you want it to be what it should be today. We just can't do it.

We were buck wild. And even when we put. Yeah, when we when we put in living color on, there was no social media. You could call the station. You could write a letter or you could fax you didn't have a voice that you could immediately counter and protest what you're watching so i remember the headleys which was the jamaican family we were saying so many jamaican curse words fox didn't know what we were saying the jamaican viewers did by the time they wrote

in and told fox we're on to the next thing yeah so that's how we got ahead of um the censors but it's more immediate now yeah i guess what it is about all of us younger comics we just we look at that that's the stuff we look up to and that's the stuff that we wish we could do that's the stuff we want to see and it's not coming to fruition these days. It's different, man. Because as soon as you utter, they're on it. Why'd you say that? You're wrong. You're bad. Apologize.

Take it back. Take it down. It was guerrilla television. When we did the Super Bowl halftime, go back and think about it. Before Living Color did that, the Super Bowl halftime entertainment were like you know Christian young people up with people you know square dancing there was no competition and what happened was after we got that audience people did not turn back to the Super Bowl that's why the next year you saw Michael Jackson you saw all kind of stuff yeah because of us And I think more people know it now, but for a long time it wasn't really talked about.

I mean, that shows you the power. You can still get wild. And plus, now, maybe you don't have to be on network television. You remember when Prince, he put, I think it was Musicology, straight out digital. And I'm like, like oh this dude is crazy ain't nobody gonna download an album it's not gonna work he was ahead of his time he was ahead of his time so I would

probably say that if you're gonna do something really crazy go that route release it yourself do a podcast yourself then you're uncensored your voice is pure I don't know how many people watch but and I am very uncentered and I think I'm in the wrong job like you know

because I've been working here and I already been slapped with like a phobia stuff I never even heard of it told me that day you bibliophobic i say i love the bible and they like that ain't the bible but that's how she knows she's doing it right because to her point i think what she's saying would show like a living color y'all represented a sense of freedom yeah my thing is if you're getting if everybody coming at you and saying you said this and you said that and you shouldn't have said this you shouldn't have said that you're doing it right you're absolutely right everything is not for everybody yeah and if you perform and uh tell your jokes your humor and everybody's happy then that's homogenized uh that's diluted just bland stuff and we don't like i don't like that give me a little something pull a stink in it but you're

staying safe stay dangerous you know what i wanted to ask you before you go in the 90s too because there's all these conversations about, oh, you shouldn't wear the dress and you shouldn't do this. Y'all did men on film. Men wore dresses. We just laughed. I didn't think nothing of it back then. When did that change? Hilarious to me. I think I understand our history.

I understand black people's history, i.e. black men's history in this country. But we weren't the only ones every major comic of any race Has cross-dressed. I don't do it in real life if I did that's another thing. Yeah, but um, I did it like 30 years ago But there is this thing of you know, black men being emasculated and all that stuff i don't look at it as that deep it was a comic device uh so i don't really hang uh too much on it but there does seem to be this almost fetish about it yeah about us uh there's some truth in it but there's also an over fascination in just that let me just put it like this there are a lot of black people and black people in power who are

being compromised and manipulated that never put on a dress okay so don't get hung up on just that and one more thing i wanted to say i know you get flack for how you speak about the electorate and who you want to support. We need that voice. We need that voice. At the end of the day, I trust people are smart enough to decide for themselves. That's right. So speak your mind. That's all I'm saying.

Absolutely. Thank you, brother. Yeah, man. Love seeing you guys. That's right. So speak your mind. That's all I'm saying. Absolutely. Thank you, brother. Yeah, man. Love seeing you guys. Same, man. David Allen Greer, the American Society of Magical Negroes

is out. It's out now, right? Yeah, it's out now. Okay, so make sure y'all go check that out. Don't make me put a dress on again. Please.

I don't want to do it. It's David Allen Greer at the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning on this Monday.

Good morning. the message on the breakfast club i know they know the difference good morning so uh candace owens in one of her recent interviews was talking about uh how she you know feels like lizzo was problematic and um she's speaking about the instant the specific incident where she wore the assless leather pants at the nba game back in 2019 she's like if you don't like it it's your problem it's like no you are being problematic and now you're playing the game where you do something outrageous and then when we outrage you pretend that we're the crazy ones i'm not dealing you stop gaslighting

me okay you're very large and you got your ass cheeks out on the side of the floor i am i'm allowed to now comment on that i reserve the right to now comment on that. And I do. And then they pull it out. Like, yeah, this is coming after Lizzo. That's from Joe Budden's podcast, right? Yes, it is. Okay. I mean, she does have a point. If you do something like that publicly, people will have the right to comment on it.

And all those comments are not going to be in your favor. No, no, no, no, no. Especially not, you know, if you're very large and, you know, and you're at an NBA game. On the side. Like, you know, you're at a and you're at an nba game on the side like you know you got floor seats and all that by the way even if you were skinny people even if you were little i don't care yeah you got a thong on your ass is out and you shaking it i'm talking about then when she turns slow never mind you know the outfit was worn to garner attention absolutely and then you get the wrong type of attention, you cry.

You can't control what people are going to say about you. Yeah, absolutely. Now look, she has every right to wear what she wants, but that comes with wearing what you want. You know what I mean? So I do agree with Candace on those notes. All right. Diddy's charter school reportedly falling apart. So I've been seeing

all over the weekend um in 2016 diddy co-founded capital preparatory harlem uh the school is located in east harlem one of the new york city's poorest neighborhoods there are 500 students from grade 6 to 12 and the majority of them are black um and are from low low income families several news outlets have been reporting on diddy's charter school crumbling. All the reports connect the school to Diddy while they report all the things

going wrong. Now, some of the things that are going wrong show the shortage on teachers, kids' grades being mixed up

and incorrectly recorded, a lot of fighting and behavioral issues with the kids. Now, what's messed up about this is Diddy

isn't even affiliated with the school. Not anymore. Not anymore up about this is Diddy isn't even affiliated with the school. Not anymore. Not anymore. In June 2023, Diddy was celebrated for his work in education. Five months later, Diddy's Harlem Charter School was forced to sever ties with him after Cassie's allegations against him. So, if Diddy isn't connected to the school, you know, and hasn't been since last year,

why are we reporting, or why are are reports not we because we ain't doing it why are the reports all week headline diddy's school is crumbling using diddy's picture yeah and he's the celebrity he's the person attached to it but he's not attached to it attached to it well he did just let him go last year like six seven months ago june 23 when all of this stuff started happening right so if the school started declining since then that has nothing to do with me that has nothing to do with diddy. Diddy has nothing in that school. These are what is happening right now. That's what they're doing for clicks. Yeah. Those the shortage of teachers.

So, y'all, this is Questlove and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the story pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand-new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records.

Historical Records brings history to life through hip hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. That is like recent. That's right now going on.

So, yeah. they they're just attaching his name to it which i do think is wrong i mean and even if he was attached to it now like that's not his fault it's the administration's fault right he's not he's not doing the day-to-day at a school right right right but anything like you say the clickbait um and you know just to make it a bigger story right you know because of what he's already going through okay gilbert arena's flirting with saucy uh santana so nick young was on a recent episode of no chill with gilbert arenas during the conversation about his time on college hill nick spoke about his friendship with saucy santana and at the time gilbert didn't know who saucy was right and um he had an interesting reaction the

first time he heard about it and he looked him him up. This is what he said. College Hills? Hey, listen. Who else was there? Saucy Santana. That's my dog. Saucy Santana? Who's that? It's the, you know, that rapper.

He's the rapper. Carisha Fran, the City Girls' homegirl. Saucy Santana? Yeah. Don't look it up, because you're going to say something funny. Don't look it up. Oh, hell! That's your dog.

Hell no. Come on, man. No. Not this. This. It's a rapper. That ain't no rapper. That ain't no rapper.

So, Saucy heard this audio and responded in some tweets. We know Saucy ain't scared to check nobody. Correct. You know? He said, I really be having to check these niggas. What the F is funny about a straight man saying he cool with me? I'm one of the realest niggas you'll ever F in me. I literally just talked about this on Love and Hip Hop. Niggas be scared of what their peers gonna think.

Bitch, what's funny about being cool with me? I'm very respectful. I don't size niggas. I don't try niggas. I do me and be in my own lane. Nick know that. That's why I was the first name he mentioned.

And we also know that because Claudia was just up there and she also said that they were cool. Like, they were close. You know what I'm saying? Like, they got to know like each other

like just, you know, from man to man. After Saucy responded, Gilbert doubled back and tried to explain why he reacted that way. But he might have taken it a little too far.

This is what he said. I've never seen somebody with nails and a beard That was the probably just threw me and threw me off and then and then when I hit the video twerk If I had to wait between who's better, I'm trying to see him or Megan Thee Stallion. Thee Stallion. I don't know who I'm going to throw my dollars to, dog. A good show is a good show. Hey, Sauce, listen. I got rules.

What? What? No. Very personal. Yeah, dude. All right. Well, thank you, Jess, with the mess. Now, who you giving your donkey cheese?

Speaking of boners, we need a man named Frederick Lloyd Day to come to the front of the congregation. Okay. He was arrested for doing inappropriate things. We'll discuss. All right. We'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

You're checking out the Breakfast Club. Your execution on the donkey of the day is something to behold. Is it a reason? He gave me donkey of the day and I deserve it. People need to know. Well, you need to tell them. I am. You have the voice. Tell them. It's time for donkey of the day and i deserve it people need to know what you need to tell them i am you have the voice tell them it's time for donkey of the day it's a read but you're so good at it

you're trying to be a fake ass charlemagne you only want charlemagne to go damn charlemagne who you give the donkey of the day to man well sexy red donkey of the day for monday march 18th goes to a 34 yearyear-old Florida man named Frederick Lloyd Day. Now, what does your Uncle Sharla always tell you about the great state of Florida? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida, and today is no exception. Now, Frederick was booked in jail and charged with battery on a specified personnel because he's an extra horny human. Yes, it's all fun and games until someone gets a boner. I just told you that.

What do you mean, Uncle Sharla? It's all fun and games until someone gets a boner i just told you that what do you mean uncle charla it's all fun and games until someone gets a boner well let me read the headline for you from news channel 8 a florida man was arrested for touching himself and groping ems paramedic during transport you see frederick was arrested after allegedly masturbating and groping an ems paramedic inappropriately while he was being taken to the hospital see police were called to the cancer center alliance of naples after they received multiple reports that a man refused to leave the building and locked himself in the bathroom when police arrived they found frederick lloyd day in the bathroom standing next to a pile of paper towels okay that's a telltale sign that he was in there scratching y behind the ears. Yes, he took his talents to South Beach.

And the arrest report shows that the officers saw Frederick scrapped into a stretcher with a noticeable erect penis showing through his basketball shorts. You know what they say. There's nothing like a clown with a boner to remind you that you're having a nightmare. And this was a nightmare for this EMS worker because the report goes on to show that Frederick was poaching the egg, shaking hands with the milkman while the EMS paramedic was taking his blood. Well, I would say the EMS paramedic was taking blood from the wrong place. Okay, they should have been taking blood out of his penis. You take the blood off the penis, then voila, no hot custard slinger. Now, the paramedic tried to get this concussor's rex to stop, but it has been scientifically proven that when you are trying to get a homo erectus

to stand down they simply can't so he attempted to reach for the victim's leg the victim okay the ems paramedic told him do not touch me but frederick looked into the victim's eyes and continued double clicking his mouse so the victim grabbed day's hand and repeated do not touch me man drop one of the clues bombs for that ems paramedic Respect to that victim because the last thing I'm touching on this dude is his hands. Okay, you've been boxing the one-eyed champ all night, so I know your hands is covered in knuckle babies. All right, nut butter and penis pudding everywhere. I'm not touching that man's hands. Now, according to WBBH, a Naples Fire Department lieutenant saw the interaction and stated that Frederick continued to try and touch the victim by removing medical equipment and even unbuckled himself from the stretcher.

Mind you, he's with the paramedic because he was complaining about foot pain and claimed that he was bitten by a bug. And when he arrived to the hospital for treatment, the staff didn't allow him in due to disorderly and destructive behavior. I'm going to tell you something man when you read this story when you hear this story all I could think to myself is the EMS paramedics should have let him die I don't think he was facing anything life-threatening but if he was if you can't let your perversion take a backseat in order for you to get the medical help that you need then why should I as a paramedic care more about you then you do about yourself I know as a paramedic care more about you

than you do about yourself i know i know paramedics are public servants they have to treat people regardless of personal feelings but damn what if the paramedic that's treating him has been molested okay or sexually assaulted all of this could be triggering for that person you asking a lot of humans when you asking them just to bypass their personal feelings i'm supposed to help you while you sexually assaulting me if the paramedic chose to not help them would they be wrong huh huh something to think about please give frederick the biggest hee haw That's crazy Alright It absolutely is

I'm convinced He just look up Gayest crimes That happened Over a weekend Come on down There was no gayness I don't think

Unless the EMS Primate was Male No he just always be like Boner Speaking of boner I need a boner I didn't know

A man who had a boner Come to the front of the congregation I didn't know your story. And Jeff with the meth had boners in it. Yeah, but why you even had to make that transition? Because it was a good segue. I was already talking about boners. You were talking about boners. Yeah, man.

Boom. Justin didn't say anything about boners. You just said boners. Yeah, you was thinking about Gilbert Arenas. I bought it all together. I bought it all together. That's what this show is about. It's about creating a story Gilbert Arenas. I bought it all together. I bought it all together. That's what this show is about. It's about creating a story every day, so I bought it all together.

So when they listen on the podcast, it's going to be seamless. Y'all download the Breakfast Club podcast. Salute to the 20 million people that listen to the Breakfast Club podcast monthly. When y'all listen to it today, it's going to be seamless. I didn't say that. Okay. All right. When we come back, Jordan Belford will be joining us.

The Wolf of Wall Street. The Wolf of Wall Street will be here, so don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Larry, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

Got a special guest in the building, Jordan Belford. What's up? What's up? How's everybody? How are you, sir? You guys are looking good today. Thank you. Jess has never met you before, but she did see the Wolf of Wall Street.

Yes. You're the real Wolf of Wall Street. I'm the real Wolf. I'm a retired Wolf. I'm a more benevolent Wolf. Yeah, it was a great movie. The thing with that movie that was interesting for me is that those events took place 30 years ago. But because the movie came out in 2013 it's still on TV feel like

thought it happened like three weeks ago right like no thank you daughter still three years old my daughter's 30 I have a grandson so it's pretty funny you know I think I've asked you where you got the wolf room where's the wolf come from believe it or not the wolf came from a show you watch Gilligan's Island okay so I didn't did the character thirst and Howell III's nickname was the Wolf of Wall Street. So it was like a joke about that. I didn't know that. So about the movie, how much of it was real events?

Was any of it add-ons? I would say 90% of it was true. And my life was probably even more insane because it was stuff that you just couldn't put on screen. It would be X-ray. You know, I'm not always mad. Right? saying because it was stuff that you just couldn't yeah put on screen you'll be x-ray you know right um but the stuff that wasn't true it was a lot of like characters more like they would collapse three people's actions into one character like danny character got it was bad danny did it right you know that was a donna jona hill character right and uh they moved the timeline around but

by and large it was really accurate you know you got a new book out called The Wolf of Investing. It came out fall of last year. My Insider's Playbook for Making a Fortune on Wall Street. You know, the first thing people will say is, why should you listen to him? It's a good question. Why should you take any tips from him? Yeah. Good question.

I think that, you know, on some level, you know, who better to expose what's going on on Wall Street? And someone that made the mistakes was part of it on the inside. You know, it's funny. People say, you know, why don't you ever write about the stock market? I never did before. So all my books before was a bit about sales or my life story, right? But, you know, obviously I have massive knowledge about Wall Street. I ran one of the largest firms on Wall Street in the 90s in the IPO market.

But I never thought of writing a book. But I think over the last, since I started going out in 2008 around the world and teaching sales and entrepreneurship, ethical sales. And I really helped millions and millions of people. And I think I've rebuilt my reputation to the point where I have a very large fan base who trust me. And I've helped so many people. When I walk around, people say, you changed my life. As I walk around, people always say, you changed my life. I went into this business course, entrepreneurship, and I felt comfortable enough.

I said, I'm going to talk about investing. When I started writing the book, I wrote what I consider to be the purest book of investing. It's so unarguably the right way for someone to get wealthy in the stock market. It's the exact opposite of everything I did back in my life. It's the opposite of what I did when I actually went to jail. I was manipulating stocks, smaller stocks.

The advice I'm giving in this book is really honestly, it's for any person of any age. Obviously the younger you start, the better, but the thesis is as follows. There's nothing in here that's revolutionary. It's just I wrote it in a really funny, I kind of laugh out loud, irreverent way so people would kind of turn the page and make it into a story. Because the truth is the best advice for investing is out there.

There's nothing you have to, it's like I didn't do some analysis. Like, oh, Eureka, I have this way. It's not like that, okay? Really? Even with all this new stuff like Bitcoin and things like that? In the book, there's two main investments I talk about. One is the S&P 500, which is an index. And so instead of buying just a random stock and trying to trade in and out,

which is a sucker's game, by the way, right? And what really bothers me, and I have this big thing about CNBC in there and how they basically are like the worst thing that could ever happen to the average investor. Because if you watch the CNBC, you'll think you can trade in and out of stocks short-term and make money. And the fact is that the scientific academic studies

going back to 1900, that says it's virtually impossible to beat the S&P. It's just like impossible. There's a few people that can do it, right? And they're not taking it. It's like Warren Buffett, a few of us, very few. No one could beat the S&P by and large, right?

But if you watch the show, you'll think that's the best way to trade. To trade, go from oil into crypto, from crypto into tech stocks, from tech stock into commodities. And you're not going to make money that way, right? So that one investment is the S&P. And I wrote the book. I think when I wrote the book, the S&P was like $3,800. Now it's $ money that way, right? So that one investment is the S&P. And I wrote the book, I think when I wrote the book, the S&P was like 3,800. Now it's 5,000, right? I also said Bitcoin's a good investment, but small, like 5% to 10% of your portfolio, right? The largest should be, I think, the S&P. And at the time it was 22,000. Now it's 73,000. But the fact that I was

right is irrelevant because it just as easily could have been down in one year in other words you can't look at investing as a one-year proposition you can't invest and worry about the price the next week the next month or even the next year I believe the best way especially people in their 30s 20s 30s 40s even 50s right you have to take a long-term horizon and rely on what's called compounding. So with the S&P 500, the idea is that, you know, you take the profits

and you just let it, as it compounds and you get your dividends, you reinvest the dividends, you let the compound over time. So I think the trap that people fall into when they invest is they say,

I only have $5,000 or 10,000. I got to make a huge hit. I have to time the market. So they get trapped in trying to do a short-term trade or they go on margin. They get blown out. You can't, you can start with a small amount and end up with a huge amount if you have patience.

That's what the book is about. Yeah. So the key is patience. Patience and also that, you know, you're not going to beat the S&P 500. So the cornerstone of your portfolio should be this. And there's no fees attached. So you put your money in, you let it ride.

So it's like set it and forget it. It's passive investing, right? That's what my accountant said. Don't even put it in there. Don't even look back for credit. Don't pay attention. You can't because the trap is that, you know, you think that, you know, well, the market's going to be a bear market. Okay, fair enough. You're going to be a bear market. Okay, fair enough. You can have a

bear market, but you go back historically, it always goes up over 30 years. So listen, it's possible the United States could be destroyed, but we have bigger problems then than your portfolio, right? So that's the essence of the book. Also, I go through a very

damning history, historically about Wall Street, how it got so f***ed up. Okay? I go through that in detail. And it's pretty wild when you read, like, why is it that, like, you know, firms get away with murder? All right, we got more with Jordan Belfort when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Hi, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Jordan Belfort. Charlamagne? Is it true that Donald Trump crashed the Wolf of Wall Street set? I read this. I read that.

It's possible. Where did I read that? Kristen Miladi said it. Kristen Miladi said it. Yeah, yeah. She was a cast member. Yeah, yeah. She played my first wife, by the way.

Whose real name was Denise. Right. So not. Yeah. She crashed. He said he, Donald Trump crashed the set and acted a damn fool. Well, you know, there you go. Right.

Well, did you hear Martin Scorsese compare Donald Trump to you? No. What did he say? Come on. No. Stop, man. Do you know? He just said he sees similarities in you two.

Do you know that i don't read anything about myself ever no comments no no i never i don't have google or nothing because i i think that for me at least right i know in my heart that i do good i know it i know everything i do i'm on like i'm giving more value than i'm getting in money. At least I'm trying, by the way, right? So like, and there's haters out there in this world. Yeah, I was going to say,

a lot of people can be made up. You have tons of, I'm sure you have tons of haters. You must. Oh, everybody loves me. Oh, what? You got to have some, you know,

and by the way, and the haters drive engagement, which is great, by the way. So like, I just let them, like, in the beginning, I used to look,

I'd fight with them. What do you, you know, how could you listen to this guy after, and I'm like, I used to look. I'd fight with them. They're saying, how could you listen to this guy? I'm like, this is just ridiculous. If Jesus Christ was today and he gave the sermon on the Temple Mount, people would say, what an idiot. Nothing new there. No matter who you are, they're going to hate on you.

I just don't read anything about myself. My wife would say, this is a great outcome. I'm like, no. If someone tells me I'm so great, I don't want to know about it i know who i am yeah i know my good my bad and my ugly and on the whole thing and each day i try to be as good a person as i can and if you read comments you can go freaking crazy what was this about about donald trump uh martin scorsese was in london at a film festival and he said um the panel's moderator edgar wright played a clip from wolf

of wall street and he said some of your films people are punished for their sins and wolf of wall street they're celebrated right sketch right said discorsady who likened belford to trump in his reply he says politically the country they elected trump it's about kill go get the money do anything you want you can't do anything to me. When he's saying I don't have to pay taxes to a certain extent because I have smart lawyers, he's right. It's true. It's legal. Doesn't mean it's right, but it's legal.

Scorsese said to the former president's multiple indictments. I'd push back on that a little bit. I'll tell you why. Because I suffered the consequences for my actions. I lost everything. I did not i did not leave jail with any money i was broke i started from scratch and and my comeback started with money i received from the wolf of wall street book and half of it went to pay back investors

there was a so i was 50 went to investors so it was really very i had really tough years in the beginning um so i that I pushed back on that. Also, I think that I really try hard not to be a polarizing figure. I really do. I don't know if that's good. In the beginning, a few years ago, I was a bit more polarizing. There were things that would bother me about COVID. I said, you know what?

I said, stop. It's not my position. I'm here to help people, to give entrepreneurial and I said, you know what? I said, stop. I don't want to stop my position. I'm here to help people, to give entrepreneurial advice, stock it, whatever, and I just don't want to, I just stopped, so like, you know, and admittedly, my engagement dropped when you stopped being as controversial, but, you know, I think, listen, I think

you could love Trump or you could hate Trump, but, I mean, it is shocking that it seems the more bad things they say about him, the more people embrace him. I can't quite figure that out. Occasionally, it's all that it seems the more bad things they say about him, the more people embrace him. I can't quite figure that out. Obviously, it's all got to catch up. Yeah, but it's a shock. I thought the first time, even before he got elected in 2016, that thing with the tape, I think, oh, this guy's done. Yeah.

I was like, this guy's done. And then when he came out and he was saying he just completely likes nothing, I was like, what a stupid. And I was like, holy, it actually worked. But eventually it's going to all crash. Yeah. Well, yeah. When have we ever seen it not? I know.

Like, it's inevitable. You said you liked Trump. You said he was a great president. Listen, I think that Trump, the president. I look at. So, y'all, this is Questlove. And I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family-friendly podcast.

Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history.

Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise.

Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It saves the world when Trump was president. There was no wars. Now, some of that could be coincidental. Some of it's just luck, right? But there was peace.

There was energy. We're energy independent. I thought, you know, regulations were less intrusive on business. And he was an a**hole. Like, he was not, he was like, he divided people. But, you know, like, so he had this, his personality was so abrasive. And I was like, what are you, like, just stick to the f***ing policies which were working.

Immigration was, was, was tight at the border. And I believe those, and I'm pro him. My parents, my great-grandparents, and my grandparents were immigrants, right? So it's not that I'm anti-immigrant, of course, I think, but legal immigrants. And there's a problem with that because the immigration system screwed up. That needs to change also. But I think the country was in a

much better spot, except for the fact that he pissed so many people off in the process. And part of being a great president is trying to unite and not divide. So, you know, but I have to say, as a president, the world, the country was in a better spot. I think the world was in a better spot. And I think Biden's is a, I don't think Biden is mentally, has mental class. I think he's almost senile.

I wouldn't quite say senile, but I would say that this whole thing about the her report, right, is nonsense. And Stewart had a great piece on this. So like the biggest thing that causes amnesia is being deposed. Like everyone's got amnesia when they're being deposed by someone, right?

Especially if you got something to hide. You see the stuff in Georgia, like that lawyer? He couldn't remember anything. I don't remember. What happened yesterday? I don't know. Your lawyer preps you

to do it that way. I think it's a bit unfair. I think it's more serious of the flubs he makes when he can't remember stuff and loses his track on. Trump does that too, though. Yeah, but not as bad, though.

Not as bad. It's not as bad. I think it just depends what highlight reel you're watching. But seriously, I don't think it's fair that the horror book, it's like,

he's on every, I did, when I'm on the polls, I'm like, I don't remember. What day? I don't know. Right?

So it's unfair. Listen, the country will decide, but I think whatever happens in the election, and I'm not a fan of Biden, I'm not, I don't think you are either.

No, I'm not a fan of him. I just sincerely hope if Trump gets elected, I hope he learns from the mistakes of dividing and saying shit that is inflammatory if you just check that I think he's kind of already went

too far past that though when you try to lead an attempted coup in this country which you said was just a moment of foolishness which two things can be true it is a moment of foolishness to try to lead an attempted coup I think it was a riot you know i i look differently at it because like they weren't on then you see a real coup um you know people come in with guns and it's organized like that they'll get it right the next time yeah this is just practice so again and i think the worst

thing of it all is that there's two people that like i mean i don't think anyone really i would like to see two different people running. Absolutely. I mean, right? So like, you know, I mean, 80 and 78. It's not age. My mother's 91 and she's sharp as a f***ing tack, my mother. All right?

Like really sharp. She shouldn't be president. Yeah, right. She shouldn't be president though, right? You know what I'm saying? You know, honestly, even like, I'm 61 years old now. Okay? I don't think I'm a sharpest when i was 45

now i have more wisdom and experience and i think that's important so i'm certainly have enough acuity to be present if i i'm not running trust me right but the point is i think that when you get into your 70s and i don't know i i don't think you're just you're not the person you are i think there should be you know certainly some at least mental acuity tests and also the job ages you i mean so i think it's pretty sad that uh at this point we have an 80 was an 80 year old and 70 it's 80 81 77 or 78 right and your career is awesome and but i love you know i love theing honest you are about politics. That you're not like just a shill. No.

And I really respect that. More than you could imagine I respect that because there's nothing more than I hate when I watch TV and there's people just shilling for the Democratic Party. You're like dead balls honest. That's great and I really respect that. I think it's important you have a young audience and young people need to hear that. Thank you, Jordan. The Wolf of

Investing is out right now. It's Jordan Belfort. Thank you for coming, brother. My pleasure. Thanks. It's The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.

We are The Breakfast Club. Jess, you good? Yeah, I'm good. Do they have Zumba for pregnant women? Yes. You going to do it? Probably. Jess ain't doing it.

Well, we are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to Jess with the mess Okay, story, story, stories Amber Rose wants Kanye West To pay her 20 million For inspiring my beautiful Dark dark twisted fantasy album. She always playing. Cardi B dropped $350,000 on her best friend's Rico case. Star Brim is her best friend.

Star Brim. If these niggas can do it, then so can your bitches. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's her friend. Absolutely. Donald Trump promises bloodbath if he's not elected. Oh, he said it's up. if I don't get up in there. What are you going to do?

I think that was slightly out of context, though. He was talking about the auto industry in particular. Uh-uh. Yeah. Auto. Okay, well, he said bloodbath. Yeah, I know everybody took that line and ran with it, which is kind of strange, right? Because it's like you don't have to take Donald Trump out of context.

He's going to give you something to talk about about so when you kind of take him out of context in that way whenever people hear anything crazy he say they're gonna be like well is this the media taking him out of context again yeah because they made it feel like that if he wasn't elected he was gonna wild out or something's gonna happen that's what it seemed like that's what i thought too until i watched the whole thing and i'm like well he's talking about the auto industry in particular but he know what he's doing you know what I'm saying? He always know what he doing. He know it always, always. So it's going to be a bloodbath in auto and a bloodbath in the streets, basically.

Dwayne Wade unbothered by painted nail hates. Okay, that's what's up. Listen, if somebody is secure, like, I want to get their nails painted. Y'all leave these people alone. So look at Dwayne Wade. But you know, when you say I'm unbothered and you got your nails painted, it'all need these people. So, look at the Dwayne Wade. But you know, when you say I'm unbothered and you got your nails painted,

it just comes off a little sad. Right, right. But if Gabby like it, we love it. Absolutely. You know, man, look, everybody wear the pants and house. All right,

Koi LeRae is on a journey to become her better self. That's amazing. Great. I'm glad that more people are doing that. That's amazing. Shani, let us know how. She said, I'm on a journey.

She ain't get there yet. She's going to tell us what she did. Okay. All right. That's what's up. Brandy Evans says she will never put on a kitten heel. Girl, what happened to P-Valley? Who's Brandy Evans?

The main stripper, Mercedes, from P-Valley. And they had her on a rear car, but then the guy asked her what would you like what it's like a fashion don't know mm-hmm XR wrong damn thing no when is P Valley coming back oh she was just sitting up there so much I hate it I hate a kitten heel I don't she said she don't like it I don't know it gives very much Hillary Clinton if you ask me but we want to know where the show is mm All right. Social media uses. Oh, my gosh. What?

Social media users speculate Envy is on house arrest. Milagro said on Twitter, the people want to know why Envy is shooting from the comforts of his home. Is it given house arrest? They talking about Friday? Yes. It looked like you was in a motel with them curtains. I wasn't in a motel. I was in a hotel. It was my. I wasn't in a motel. I was in a hotel.

It was at my daughter's dance competition. Oh. Okay. It is funny, though. Whenever you broadcast from home, they think you on house arrest. I don't know. I don't know why. They don't even be home all the time.

But I know it's not. But y'all be disrespecting me. Like, you think that hotel is my crib with the curtains and all that and the little window? No, you could have let your mama decorate. Shut up. Well, no. I'm sure. Okay. Tracy Ellis Ross

shut down the possibility of a girlfriend's reboot. Oh, my God, no. Yeah, she said that shit has sailed. And I understand. No, it hasn't. Why y'all keep getting it?

It has. You the only one that want that right now. Right, right. No, because here's the thing that y'all don't know about girlfriends because y'all used to

watch girlfriends. Girlfriends didn't have no closure. Like, it did not end. So there's so many different loose ends that they need to watch girlfriends. Girlfriends didn't have no closure. Like it did not end. So there's so many different loose ends that they need to tie up. So that's the reason

we want closure. We don't want a reboot of the show. We want the actual great ending for the show. Who do you think's more sassy? Dwyane Wade or him

just talking about girlfriends? Him. I'm just talking because y'all ain't watched the show. I'm unbothered. I need closure. And don't keep on

gently pressing against the air. Like don't keep going. I'm unbothered. I'm unbothered. Child, I need closure. And don't keep on gently pressing against the air. Like, don't keep going. I'm unbothered. I'm unbothered. All right. All right. Now, by the way, all the women still look good to this day. Yes.

But they feel like, yo, like you just said about power. Everything needs an ending. That's my point. Girlfriends didn't get one. Girlfriends did not have an ending. All my people out there that watch Girlfriends know it did not have an ending. David Ellen Greer said the same thing when I said said do you see it in living color reboot he said he said no and and it couldn't come back today anyway i'm pretty sure they got a final episode

though i don't think yeah living color got a final episode it didn't just abruptly end okay all right well drake gives pregnant fans 25 000 and invite an invite into the vip section he loved pregnant women. That's why I wish he'd come up here before I had his baby. But he won't because Charlamagne Tha God did that. So that's all good. That's my friend. That is not just my friend.

That is not just my friend. Kendrick are best friends. I told you about that friend word. Now stop. Okay. Stop. Don't say it. You can't be using that word loosely now.

You're right. Shoot. So many people hate me. You want to fight because I said they ain't my friend. Well, you just proved my point. You ain't my friend. All right. Bruno Mars reportedly owes MGM Casino $50 due to unpaid gambling.

That's because that white man made him a lot of money. And that is amazing that he thinks that. That's his opinion.

I mean, there's other people that think that. I disagree. I mean, if I was being objective and I was just making a top probably five to ten rappers of all time, Eminem would be in there. He would be on the list. Okay, yeah, he would definitely be on the list. Yeah, he'd be in there. He's not my personal favorite. I don't know. Okay. All right.
