Good morning, USA! All the teachers out there, if you are a teacher at my kid's school, I'm going to let you know this morning that homework is me.
I just want to let you know.
When that homework comes in this morning, it is me.
It is what it is.
Last night, my daughter had a game, and I don't know why they have those games so damn late.
The game started at 6 o'clock.
It ended at 8.
I wasn't home until 8.30, 8.45.
The kids had homework.
They had to take baths.
They had to eat.
My job was to help with the homework.
My wife did the food and getting them ready for tomorrow.
And I ain't going to lie.
I'm going to tell you how I know your kid going to fail.
Because you a dumbass daddy.
Why?
What kind of dumbass daddy would get on the radio and tell the teacher I did my child's homework?
I didn't say I did it.
You just said you did it.
It's me.
I'm the one that checked it.
I checked it.
No.
Now you're trying to correct yourself.
I am.
Because you realize how dumb you sounded.
Just going on the radio telling the teachers, I did my child's homework.
They be aight.
This guy here, man.
They be aight.
That's why they give D's.
They give D's for dumb daddies.
Dumb daddies.
The child's going to get a double D.
It was one of those ones.
I had to sign on my kid's homework.
I was like, as long as it's neat, I'm going to sign it this morning.
I don't know if it's good, if it's bad, if it's right, if it's wrong,
but it's just one of those mornings.
Well, you need to go back to what grade she in?
My son.
What, first grade?
First grade.
Oh, yeah, you need to go back there to learn how to formulate sentences.
And it's hard.
It's difficult.
You need to formulate the sentence.
It's me.
It's me.
It's me.
That sounds like you did the homework,
but what you're trying to say is you checked off on it, not even checking it, just because
you wanted to get it done.
Whatever.
I'm not trying to save you.
Don't save me.
I don't want to be saved.
I know.
But the little shorts you got on.
No.
No, it ain't Project Pat.
Don't save them hoes.
They don't want to be saved.
The little shorts you got on this morning, I can tell you don't want to be saved.

Cavs out? Okay. You don't want to be safe. You checking me out? Okay. And you walked in and I was like, damn, I ain't. Cab's out. Okay.

I never heard of Taylor. Well, she asked for one thing for her birthday. Hopefully you came through with that birthday Idiots podcast too? Maybe. I don't know her. I never heard of Taylor.
Well, she asked for one thing for her birthday.
Hopefully, you came through with that birthday gift.

Yes.
No, I'm not giving her no drugs.
I refuse to solicit drugs.
I refuse to give anybody up here drugs, okay?
You get drugs on your own time.
I'll give you some money to buy your own drugs.
Taylor, you got to give me that back now.
You got to give me that back.
But you got a line, you know?
So it's a little different. All right, Taylor, you can keep that. Yeah. All right. Well, give me that back. But you got a line. You know, so it's a little different.
All right, Taylor, you can keep that.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, let's get the show cracking.
Front page news is coming up.
We got Tisland Figaro.
She'll be joining us, telling us everything that's going on.
And the rumors we're having in a little bit, we got to talk about Hov.
He wants to open a casino.
And Gabrielle Union wants to go 50-50.
We'll talk about that all.
So don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning on BET.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. that all so don't move it's the breakfast club good morning on bet everybody is dj envy charlemagne
the guy we are the breakfast club let's get in some front page news now we have tesla figaro here
hey tez good morning dj envy charlemagne the god the hood whisperer tesla figaro what's happening
what's going on tez let's get right into it let's talk about this baseball bat attack what happened
what the hell is going on yeah two staff two staffers for Representative Jerry Connolly were hospitalized Monday after a man entered the Congress, the congressman's district office in Fairfax, Virginia, and assaulted them with a metal bat.
Now, the assailant asked for Representative Connolly and then struck a senior aide in the head and an intern in the side with the metal bat.
Unfortunately, that was her first day at work. The intern intern both of the staffers were taken to the hospital yeah that's a bad way to start the your job
but both of the staffers were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries
the alleged attacker identified by authorities as swan tran fam 49 of fairfax is in custody and
faces one count of aggravated malicious wounding and one count of malicious wounding.
Capitol Police said that the suspect's motive is unclear at the time,
but his family did report that he was schizophrenic and he hadn't taken his medication in several months.
And I actually saw another report where earlier that day he was chasing someone with a bat as well.
I saw that video last night on MSNBC, CNN, something I was watching
last night. I don't remember. I'm surprised it's not
an attempted murder or attempted manslaughter
if that's one of the charges. Because, I mean, you hit
somebody with a metal bat. I'm surprised they didn't get
shot. Okay? Especially in Virginia
because in Virginia you can't carry. So,
that's very surprising. And you don't
know that a person is schizophrenic when they
run down on you with a baseball bat. So, you're not
going to be approaching it from, okay, this is a person dealing with mental health issues.
You're going to approach it from this is a person threatening my life.
So I'm going to do what I got to do to protect myself.
But nobody and nobody in the office was armed.
And that's one of the things that they're bringing up as well, where they're saying, hey, you know, these district offices, we need more support.
You know, with actually having security guards, which they did increase after.
You remember when Nancy Pelosi's husband was attacked at home?
Congress did give more money to two people in Congress to be able to have more more security.
And so that's what they're talking about. Now we're trying to implement some more guards on site.
I bet you'll be pro gun then. And by the way, they lucky that was just a baseball bat.
Because if you can get through that with a baseball bat, you can damn sure get through there with a pistol yeah metal batted
that absolutely absolutely so i'm assuming there's no metal detectors anything like that to get to
this into those buildings huh right and well most of your district offices are in malls you know
office buildings you know little little places that you can just kind of get for cheap uh we're
talking about the district office so we're not talking about you know a lot of times they're not security they're just you know small little offices that you can
just walk directly into and so that's what they're talking about now what's saying you know how do
they change some of that because they're just you know obviously too vulnerable to the public it's
amazing to me that in this uh era with this rise of political violence that they have not stepped
up security what they what they what they on, thoughts and prayers to protect themselves?
Like, Jesus Christ.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, that is your front page news.

And I don't know.
It's just messing with me.
So I don't know.
I'm just pretty frustrated.'s insane now now now is that the only reason or did something happen did you get caught

We're cool.
You know, we're not as explosive, but we're pretty cool.
We travel.
We do everything together.
Does your family think you're going to hell because of your lifestyle?
Most likely, yeah.
Yeah, I know.
That's weird, especially being from New York, because it feels like it's more acceptable
here in New York City.
That's what I thought. Half of York, because it feels like it's more acceptable here in New York City. That's what I thought.
Half of my time is up here with the other half.
But it's like I didn't hear from her.
So it's kind of messed me up.
Do they know that if your niece, if she is indeed gay, she's going to be gay regardless of what her on is?
Exactly.
I don't think they know that.
That's her loss. That's your sister's loss. Absolutely. All right, mama. Have a good one. gonna be gay regardless of what her on is exactly oh i don't think they know that well that's their
that's her loss that's your sister's loss absolutely all right mama have a good one thank

800-585-1051.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning.
Good morning, go on.
What's your name, brother?
It's Hakeem.
Hakeem, get it off your chest.
First off, I want to say I appreciate y'all taking these calls.
I just had a crunch of you today.
Hey, Charlemagne, what's good morning?
How you doing, brother?
Peace, King.
I'm trying to get involved with this real estate wholesale.
I've been trying for a while now, but my main problem is finding out how to estimate repairs.
Do you have any advice for me?
Oh, you trying to wholesale houses?
Yeah, I'm trying to wholesale houses, and I'm just having a hard time estim estimate repairs. Do you have any advice for me? Oh, you trying to wholesale houses? Yeah, I'm trying to wholesale houses and I'm just having a hard time estimating repairs.
I think I got everything else down time. So once I crunch my numbers up, they wronged
and I ain't got no debt.
Yeah, I'm not a wholesaler. I've never been a wholesaler. I know it takes a lot of work
and effort to be a wholesaler. So for people out there that don't know what a wholesaler
is, is you're pretty much the middleman between a person selling the crib and buying the crib.
So you just got to find who's trying to actually sell the crib and find somebody who's trying to buy in the crib.
So people they do. Of course, they do flyers. They go ring doorbells. They make cold phone calls.
I just never did it because I don't have the time. I'm more of the person to go to the final crib.
That's about to be foreclosed on or to find a foreclosed home and buy and fix up and flip or to keep so i'm not i couldn't you know put you on that that line about
wholesaling bro gotcha gotcha i appreciate it but if you go online you can look there's a lot
of brothers talking about um wholesaling i wouldn't give anybody no money but you could
definitely look online and see how to do it and the money that you would use some to give somebody
to teach you i would you know use that for your flyers and use that to make cold calls and use that to ring people's doorbells.
But you even got to be, you know, careful with that now as well.
Right.
Yeah, I have bought a program, but it wasn't, I mean, it wasn't that much money.
But I'm still just having a hard time estimating repairs and stuff like that.
I know how to find an ARV, all that stuff.
But just the repairs have kicked me in the butt.
Yeah, wholesaling takes a lot. You might, when you might try to find a multi-unit,
a two-family, a three-family, and
use the rent from those
other two doors to pay your rent, you know what I mean?
And start like that. That's what a lot of people are doing.
That's if you have a small amount of money to put
down. I think that's the best bet. You get a multi-unit
and then you make the other tenants pay your rent,
so, you know, you're living kind of rent-free.
Alright, I appreciate that.
I think that, I note that down. Good luck, man. DM me and I'll try to guide you in the right place living kind of rent-free. All right, I appreciate that. I take that. I note that down.
Good luck, man.
DM me, and I'll try to guide you in the right place.
All right, not a problem.
Charlamagne, can I get a Black Effect hat?
I got you, man.
Put that brother on a whole cinema Black Effect hat.
We got a bunch of them in the back, man.
We got you.
That's Hakeem on Live 5.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is my name, Kane.
Kane, what up?
Get it off your chest, Kane
Man, this something big, bro
Like, I've been on TikTok
And I usually don't be on social media like that
But I went on TikTok
And I've been finding out stuff
And I found out that they don't want us to have TikTok
Because it's very informative
And I found out that, you know
I found out that NASA
And they've been lying to us
The government, everybody's been lying to us.
The earth is flat.
All right, man.
Have a nice day, yo.
Have a nice day, young kid.
That's it?
Yeah, have a nice day.
The earth is flat.
Don't entertain this.
What else you heard?
Don't entertain this.
I'm curious.
He's spreading misinformation,
so you're part of the problem.
I'm just asking what else he heard.
This is stupid.
I don't even know why you're saying it, bro.
Man, the earth,
look, I want y'all to know
that the earth is flat, bro,
and the government don't want us to know because they don't want us to know
because it's in the Bible that the Earth is flat.
If you do the research for yourself, bro, if you do the research for yourself,
you will find out that the Earth is a flat plane that we live on.
It's not a globe.
Can I ask you a question?
I want to ask you a serious question.
This is a serious question.
Yeah.
Because I know you haven't given this any thought.
What would be the reason for them not telling us the Earth is flat?
What would it matter?
And that's the big question right there.
And that's the big question right there.
First, that's the big question right there.
And we know it.
Everybody that knows that the Earth is really flat, we already know why.
I just asked you, why would they have to hide that?
What would be the difference if the Earth was round, if it was flat, if it was shaped like a hot dog?
What would it matter?
Okay.
Okay, look.
It's not just that they make the Earth round, okay?
They put us on an Earth that's round, right?
And that's far away from everything.
Far away from the sun.
Far away from the moon.
Okay?
They put us far away from the stars.
All that is right here with us.
The sun is local. The moon is local. Everything is local. We stars all that is right here with us the sun is local the
moon is local everything is local we're not the universe revolves around us that's why they don't
want us to know that you feel me and it's just been on my mind and you when you connect the dots
connect the dots like i've been doing for the past few weeks you're gonna see it like i have
and look at the nasa footage i'm from houston texas where nasa is okay and you haven is. Okay. And you haven't read any of this in a book.
It's got it all from TikTok.
That's right.
You're not going to get it out of a book, man.
If the government don't want you to know that the Earth is flat, bro,
you're not going to get it out of a school book.
They change school books all the time.
I didn't say nothing about no school books.
I said a book.
I said a book, period.
I just want y'all to said a book, period. I can't. You have a good one, man.
I just want y'all to think about that, man.
Nope.
Because nobody ever thinks that through.
It's just a simple question.
If indeed the earth is flat, what reason would they have not to tell us that?
What's the difference between the earth being round, flat, shaped like a glizzy?
The earth can look like a butt for all we know. But what would be the reason to hide any of that from us it's too early to argue with that gentleman man
you're entertaining i mean get it off your chest 800-585-1051 when we come back we got your rumor
report gabriel union says she wants to go 50 50 in her relationship people are talking about it
we'll get into it next it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club
we need to light a candle in here something there's a stench
an odor somebody got some food in here something i don't know smell like something died
dead rat in here something what's going on yo this is embarrassing we can't have people walk
in the room and there's a stench yeah and it's extra hot but morning everybody it's dj envy charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get to the
rumors let's talk hove rumor has it rumor rumor has it call out a name or you gossiping or you
chatting gossiping this is the rumor report i mean i guess we on the breakfast club this is where the
tea spills right right on the breakfast club uh, a couple of months ago, we'll tell you about a casino possibly opening in Times Square.
Well, Jay-Z's A Rock Nation plans and wants to open a casino right in Times Square.
Earlier this week, a whole agency shared an open letter detailing plans to develop a casino.
That was last week, actually.
Last week, yeah.
They shared an open letter detailing plans to develop a casino in Manhattan's Times Square.
They did it with several newspaper ads.
You've seen several people posting it.
They're only giving one gaming license to New York City, and Hove wants that license.
Yeah, that needs to happen.
I mean, that has to happen.
Like, in the letter, Roc Nation states there's no better location for a Caesars Palace entertainment destination than Times Square.
And I couldn't agree more.
Because the reality is there's nothing in Times Square right now.
Like the biggest attraction in Times Square should not be the Naked Cowboy.
Correct.
You know what I mean?
And imagine flying into New York and being able to stay at a Caesars Palace
casino for the weekend and partaking in all the fine dining and the Broadway
plays.
Think about all the jobs that are going to be created from opening this casino
in Times Square.
Think of all the businesses that will be positively impacted because all the traffic that's going to be coming through time square
that's more money for mass transit and rock nation said they're going to invest in security heavy and
that's exactly what time square needs sorry new york needs more security and on top of all that
you have an icon brooklyn's own the greatest rapper of all time one of the greatest musical
acts of all time at the helm of all this, Jay-Z?
Come on, man.
There's nobody in New York that could get a casino license
that could attract a diverse crowd of people
from all over the world that Sean Carter would.
Now, the proposal, as Charlamagne said,
they want to give back to all surrounding businesses.
They want to commit $115 million for diverse theater programs
that also include daycare for Broadway workers
and their families come on man
uh they want to benefit mass transit invest money into sanitation and security all the way into
hell's kitchen which is an area in new york city they want to develop and deliver a much needed
transportation plan to make transportation a lot easier uh they want to protect the interests of
actors like i said producers theater staff uh writers and people that want to go to broadway to make it a lot easier and they want to provide opportunities
and jobs for all it's a no-brainer you know how many people would love to come to new york just
to go to jay-z's casino yeah so stay at jay-z caesar's palace come on new york make the right
call that's an easy call rock nation time square now they're saying the winner of the new york uh
city monumental new gaming license will be announced later this year.
Well, I hope it's Roc Nation.
And, you know, because that 1515 location would be absolutely perfect for New York City.
It would change the landscape of the whole city.
Now, it's not the whole 1515 location.
It's like the top couple of floors, right?
Nah, from what I was told, it's going to be the casino is going to be the first eight floors and then the rest is going to be the hotel.
Yeah, so the casino will be like the first eight floors
and the rest will be the hotel.
Okay.
So that means that, you know,
we'll be evicted
out of the 1515 building
because, you know,
that's where my office was
for my late night talk show
and that's where I, you know,
buy a car,
a paramount as a whole, but...
Yeah, but that's how
most casinos are.
It's usually on the first
couple of floors
and then the hotel is above it.
I think it would be
fantastic for the city.
What do you think
as a native New Yorker?
I mean, I think it'll be great.
I mean, I think uh you know it's
it's weird people always come to new york city right and they always be like yo envy i'm coming
to new york what should i do there's nothing to do and i never could really think of it i'm like
because if if you don't want to indulge in the nightlife right if you're not a club person right
and you say well what what is there to do well either you have to go to jersey to go to the
amusement park that they just opened or the American Dream
Mall.
Or, you know, you want to go to see the World Trade Center monument or you want to go to
the Empire State Building.
But other than that, what is there to do?
You go to Harlem to see the Apollo.
You go to Sylvia's.
You go to all these different restaurants.
But what can somebody do to enjoy themselves?
Right.
That's the difficult part.
Like, you know, yeah, you can go to the Bronx Zoo, but you go to Yankee Stadium.
You can go to Madison Square Garden if the Knicks are playing. but there is not much to do. When I go to these other
cities, there is so much to do. There's so much to see. You can drive down Fifth Avenue,
but you can't park. But when you go to these other cities, whereas L.A. or you go to Atlanta or
you go to San Francisco or you go to Chicago, there's so many different things to see
and do. Yeah, you could take on a play. But outside of that, what is
there to do if you have a family
and you have kids?
There's going to be
so many different things.
You have to drive deep out
to Atlantic City
if you want to go to the casino,
which is a two-hour drive.
There's not much to do,
so I like things like that.
When you mention the play thing,
I'm a Broadway guy.
I like going to plays,
but that's a one-night thing.
Because plays are expensive.
Imagine Roc Nation
having the Caesars Palace
in the middle of Times Square.
It gives you options.
You can stay there.
You can go gamble.
You can go to a nice restaurant,
Hunting Fish Club
over there,
Brooklyn Chop House,
you know.
And you never know
what other things
they might have
in this Caesars Palace.
Keep sneezing.
When's the last time
you took a COVID test?
Man, shut up, man.
I don't care about
no damn COVID.
I'll do one for you right now.
Say ah.
I know you would love to.
You would love to give me
some type of rectal exam,
wouldn't you?
All right. Now, Gabrielle Union and Dwayane wade they split their bills 50 50 uh she was
recently doing an interview with bloomberg and this is what she said that first sense of security
and that the work is coming and i just as long as i keep knocking it out there's gonna be more and
there isn't this sort of sense of the rug is going, could still be pulled out.
I struggle with that still just because I think I just have more responsibilities, you know, for my money.
It's weird to say I'm head of household because in this household, we split everything 50-50.
But in the other households that each of us have to support, it puts this this there's always this like gorilla on your back
that it is like you better work you better work somebody might not eat and it's hard it's hard
to let that go so i'm working on that now why is this a story um because duane wade is uh i guess
he's a multi-millionaire multi multi-aire, I think $100, $200 million.
And people are saying 50-50.
Maybe it shouldn't be 50-50 in that relationship.
Why is it 50-50?
50-50 meaning she splits the bill.
She pays half the mortgage if they have a mortgage, half the car note, half the insurance, half the cable bill, half the utilities.
I don't see the problem with this.
Gabrielle making money, D-Wade making money if they choose to split the bills 50-50.
So what?
Well, we can talk about it next hour.
Let's open up the phone lines.
I know they're not proposing that Dwayne Wade pays all the bills just because he's a man, right?
That wouldn't be equality, would it?
I think people are saying that.
I think people are feeling like Dwayne Wade is worth a couple hundred million dollars.
Maybe he should be paying all the bills.
I think that's what people are saying.
I don't necessarily believe that.
I believe that in a household, and I got this from my mom and dad, and me and my wife do the same thing.
It's a big pot.
It's an account where all the money goes into the account, and we pay bills accordingly.
I got that from my mom and my dad.
And me and my wife, when we first got married, she was making more than me.
She was making a majority of the money, and it all went into one account,
and we paid the bills from there.
And same thing with us.
No matter what my wife makes or what I make, it goes into one account,
and we pay the bills.
We take care of the kids.
We pay the college tuition.
We pay the mortgages.
We do all that.
And that's just me.
That's our relationship.
I know that, you know, they say men are supposed to protect and provide,
and we are.
But, man, as long as there's a roof over our head and there's food
on the table and everybody's uh comfortable who gives a damn how to how those things are being
paid and it's crazy because a lot of people feel i know a lot of people that have their own separate
accounts like the man i have his one account the woman i have in one account and they have a joint
account we don't care my wife has gotten a bunch of big checks it is not once that she'd be like
all right well this is mine no it's oh put it in a pot it's ours we pay the bills and but always ours but
but let's just say and i don't even say but let's just say i was you know me and my wife didn't work
and i was dating somebody else now it wouldn't be like that hell no but you you and your wife and
my your wife and you are similar to me and my wife. It's like we came up together.
Correct.
You know what I'm saying?
We've been together 25 years.
We've been together since we was kids.
So it's different.
We built this together.
Right.
You know what I mean?
I'm not sharing this with nobody else.
Are you crazy?
All right.
Okay.
What's that word?
Prenup?
Prenup.
Yes.
Prenup.
All right.
There's going to be some terms and conditions.
That will never happen.
Well, let's open up the phone lines.
800-585-1051.
Let's have that discussion.
We'll take your calls.
What's your thoughts?
How does it work in your household?
When we come back, front page news, and then we'll put some of your calls on air and talk to you.
All right?
So don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club on BET.
The Breakfast Club.
Your mornings will never be the same.
Our Audible pick of the day is In the Room with Peter Bergen.
Go beyond the headlines in this weekly podcast and get the real story from people who were there listen when you sign up for a free trial at audible.com breakfast club
everybody it's dj envy charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get in some front page
news tesla figaro is here good morning tes good morning we just want to start off with some quick
sports the lakers and nuggets will tip off tonight 8 30 p.m eastern time you can watch it on espm who you got uh tonight uh nuggets i got the lakers i got the
lake i don't think nobody can hold joe kicks on uh the lakers i think he's gonna embarrass anthony
davis davis is the x factor what have you ever seen joe i did see joe is a problem absolutely
but i think the lake has got it tonight all right now tes let's start off with florida governor what's going on yes florida governor ron de santis signed a bill
into law monday banning the state's public colleges and universities from spending money
on diversity equity and inclusion programs and de santis said during a news conference that if
you look at the way this has actually been implemented across the country, DEI is better viewed as standing for discrimination, exclusion and indoctrination and that it has no place in public institutions.
Many institutions across the U.S. have used DEI offices aimed at diversifying staff and to promote inclusion for faculty and staff.
But in Florida, that will end, unfortunately, on July 1st.
It's obvious that Ron DeSantis is a white supremacist, right?
It's pretty obvious.
And it's amazing to me that a person like that would be running for president.
And when I think about it, it's like, damn, he's not even interested in bringing the country together.
Clearly, right?
Not at all.
Right.
He's very clear in his position.
And it was interesting because some folks did, you know, they protested and uh mocked that as well they said it was a kindergarten level uh protest so not enough
folks i guess are speaking loud about this on how this is an issue which i don't think he would give
a damn anyway he's already you know made his decision and he's doubled down on his stuff
it's going to be very interesting to see how he proceeds with uh announcing his uh candidacy for
presidency in the next couple of weeks yeah i don't think many people uh care yet because it's something that's just contained to florida but
what happens when this person decides to announce that they're running running for president of the
united states of america like we know what this man is about and what this man is about is clearly
erasing blackness right and uh as another point hBCUs are really concerned about this as well. My daughter, you know, she plans to go to FAMU, as I told you guys before. And so when you look at this and look at the fraternities and sororities that now will have to kind of go through some loopholes in order to partner, if you will, it's not going to stop. It's not going to ban the fraternities and sororities, but it will prevent some levels of partnership with the organization.
So this is a huge thing.
And it seems like they would, you know, you will hear a little bit more about it.
So I'm going to see how that kind of falls next month when they put this into play.
Well, in July, rather, when this goes into effect.
All right.
Now, let's talk about this.
Send in more migrants to the vice president's house.
Yes. In petty news, Texas greg abbott sent more migrants to
vice president harris's washington residence on mother's day just days after the end of title 42
the pandemic error rule that allowed officials to quickly expel asylum seekers at the border
governor abbott tweeted that texas has bussed more than 17 000 migrants to sanctuary cities
more than 9200200 went to Washington.
He also notified mayors of numerous cities earlier this month that he would be sending migrants to their cities,
including New York City, Chicago, Washington, D.C.
And New York Mayor Eric Adams blasted his move, saying that he was targeting cities with black mayors.
Lori Lightfoot, who was the Chicago mayor at the time, also took aim at Abbott, urging him not to send more migrants to Chicago.
She reiterated that Chicago has no more shelter spaces or resources to address another flood of migrants in the city.
Now, is he targeting cities with black men or he's just simply sending the migrants to sanctuary cities?
Because if that's the case, then we can say, hey, why did they make most of the sanctuary city cities that have black men?
Well, most of the sanctuary cities are Democrat ran cities.
And when we look at the four largest cities, they're all ran by black mayors.
So the four top, the four largest city, New York City has a black mayor.
Chicago has a black mayor.
Houston is number three.
You know, I'm sorry.
L.A. is number three with a black mayor and Houston number four with a black mayor.
So the top four cities are black mayors.
So when you look at, you know, how he's targeting that, maybe two things can be true at the same time.
I don't know.
And I saw people in New York are upset, too, because, you know, they say Eric Adams is putting the migrants in school gymnasiums.
So, like, you know, parents and community leaders are angry that, you know, their school gymnasiums are being used to house migrants.
Yeah, and they closed. That's because they closed seven gyms,
so the kids can't actually play.
There's no gym, there's no recess,
and they might have a problem for summer school where, you know,
a lot of times these kids are able to go to these camps and use these facilities,
won't be able to use these facilities in the summer or for recess or gym.
I tell you one thing, y'all can say what y'all want.
Republicans, when it came to marketing,
the problem
that is happening at the border and and the problem with these cities being overrun by migrants they
have highlighted that problem so well by doing things like dropping the migrants off in front of
vice president kamala harris's house and dropping them off in sanctuary cities like they really put
a light on this issue now
is it going to be solved is there going to actually be some problem solving in regards to
to the border now test yeah i mean well hopefully so uh again they had they said that the numbers
that i'm looking at it now have reduced uh with those who have come over so they seem that
apparently have it under control uh but to your point, there has also been some homeless vets who have been booted out as well as hotels.
And so that's a big story that's developing. And I saw, you know, come out on yesterday as well in New York.
So when you start talking about putting veterans out of housing and like you mentioned, schools and all that type of stuff. What are they going to do with immigration reform? And it's just something that Democrats and Republicans just cannot seem to agree on how to do it moving forward.
And those are the things that make people hate America.
Imagine being a veteran, right, for this country.
You went to war for this country and you're getting booted out for somebody that's not even from this country.
You're already homeless.
You know what I mean?
You're already, you know, not being taken care of by the country that you went to fight for and now you're getting kicked out of a of some room
and board for for somebody who's not even from here yeah come on man that wouldn't piss you off
absolutely all right well that is front page news thank you tesla figaro absolutely and make sure
you check out the straight shot no chaser podcast hosted by tesla and figaro uh available on the
black effect iheartio podcast network.
All right. Now, when we come back, let's discuss Gabrielle Union.
She was doing an interview and she was talking about her relationship and how they handle finances.
She said 50-50. Let's listen.
That first sense of security and that the work is coming.
And I just as long as I keep knocking it out, there's going to be more.
And there isn't this sort of sense of the rug is going, could still be pulled out.
I struggle with that still just because I think I just have more responsibilities, you know,
for my money. It's weird to say I'm head of household because in this household,
we split everything 50 50, but in the other households that each of us have to support,
it puts this,
there's always this like gorilla on your back
that is like,
you better work.
You better work.
Somebody might not eat.
Come on, come on.
You better work.
And it's hard.
It's hard to let that go.
So I'm working on that.
So we're asking
800-585-1051.
Do you agree?
Are you 50-50
in your relationship?
Do you split the bills down the middle, the mortgage down the middle, car notes, whatever
it may be?
See, this is interesting, right?
Because this issue isn't really about whether or not people split 50-50.
I'm sure a majority of people do.
What makes this a story is the fact that Dwyane Wade is a multi-millionaire.
But do most people split 50-50?
I would think so.
I don't know. I would think so.
I follow, so I usually follow my mom
and my dad, and I tell everybody, of course, my dad is
a retired police officer. My mom worked at
an insurance company. There was no 50-50.
They put it all into the pot, and then the pot
paid the bill. So, whatever it was,
my mom paid the bills. My mom paid the bills.
But it was your mom's money and your dad's money, right?
But it wasn't 50-50. It wasn't like they split it half.
You pay half, I pay half, and same thing with me and my wife.
I guess that means they both contributed.
So people would look at that as 50-50.
But it's different than both contributed and 50-50.
If I make $100,000 and my wife makes $20,000, it all goes to the pot.
There is no 50-50.
We just pay the bills, whatever it may be.
I guess in Gabby or the Wayne Wade situation, they're shocked that she has to pay anything because he's a multimillionaire.
Correct.
That's what I think people are shocked.
That's why this is a story and that's let's talk about it
800-585-1051 because like like i said in my household it is is one pot you know i mean all
the money goes to the pot yeah whether i make the money or my wife makes the money from from
being an author and all the things that she does and me from radio and then she just pays the bills
there is no your account my account account. I'm the same way.
It's our money.
It's our money.
Any money that comes in the house, regardless of who made it, it's our money.
That's how I look at it.
Some people don't look at it like that.
I definitely look at it like that.
Let's discuss.
800-585-1051.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
It's topic time call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the breakfast club
morning everybody it's dj nv charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club now if you're just
joining us we're talking about gabrielle union she was doing an interview with bloomberg and um
this is what she said about her and duanene Wade's bills and how they handle their household with finances.
That first sense of security and that the work is coming.
And I just as long as I keep knocking it out, there's going to be more.
And there isn't this sort of sense of the rug is going could could still be pulled out.
I struggle with that still just because I think I just have more responsibilities,
you know, for my money.
It's weird to say I'm head of household
because in this household, we split everything 50-50.
But in the other households that each of us have to support,
it puts this, there's always this like gorilla on your back
that is like, you better work.
You better work. Somebody might not eat. Come on, come on, you better work you better work somebody might not
eat come on and it's hard it's hard to let that go so i'm working on that so we're asking 800-585-1051
what are your thoughts charlamagne what do you think i respect it gabrielle union got money
d wade got money they both making money if they choose to split the bills 50 50 that's on them
you know i know uh they say a man's job is to protect and provide and it is but you know if if the woman is making a lot of money too
and she wants to go 50 50 that's her right right i'm not mad at it you know what i'm saying i mean
it's a little different in my household only because you know me and my wife you know came
up together so i don't look at as anything as 50 50 this is just our money you know what i mean and
we're going to do the best things with our money you know we're going to invest in things with
our money you know if i want to do something me and my wife you know sit down i tell her what i
want to do you know she tells me how she feels about it if she wants to do something same vice
versa you know i mean like i don't look at it as 50 50 but i'm not mad at what gabrielle and duane
doing i just think everybody's like oh man it shouldn't be 50 50 because duane wade is a multi multi millionaire
that's not a log people no it's not a law that that has to happen no and like you said i mean
i'm the same way with my household me and my wife been together since 16 and 15 years old we came
together you know there was times when she made more than me i made more than her and
everything is goes into a pot what's best for our family so i don't i don't split anything so it's not like she has an account i have an account
we have a joint account we don't do it like that um and honestly i'm like you like if my wife wants
to do something we sit down we discuss it and if we agree then we do it if i want to do something
the same same thing and and that that keeps our balance well that keeps balance well and by the
way it's always been like that with us.
Because, you know, when you've been with somebody for so long, me and my wife have been together for 25 years.
You know, we've lived in apartments and everything else.
It's like there were times where I was fired from radio and she was the one going to work every day and she was paying all of the bills.
And it didn't matter because as long as there was a roof over our head and there was food on the table,
it didn't matter
who was bringing in the money.
Correct.
It's just the fact that
we were living together.
So that never changes
if you and a person stay together.
It don't matter whose money it is.
Let's go to the phone lines.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Donetta.
Hey, Donetta.
Good morning.
Where you calling from?
I'm calling from Georgia,
originally from that town.
I'm so glad y'all answered the phone.
I call almost every morning and y'all never answer.
Well, you're here now.
We called this morning for you, mama.
Hey, so I wanted to comment on the Dwayne Wayne and Gabrielle Union.
Of course.
I've been with my husband for 26 years, and there has never been a time where we had separate money.
And I'm kind of, I get kind of confused that people who aren't rich
and who are down here in the valley with everybody else, I don't,
when my husband gets paid or we get money, we pay the bills, we feed the kids,
we take care of the business, and that's it.
It's never, you uh uh i need this or
you owe me this back i don't understand couples like that they be like oh he owes me a hundred
dollars how do your husband owe you a hundred dollars that's real you know what it's funny
that you say that i know a couple people that do that as well like you know my my my man owe me a
hundred dollars i'm like how can you your man or your girl owe you a hundred dollars that's just
weird yeah that's like i don't get that that's like parents who say they babysitting their kids.
Yeah, and I don't, exactly.
Like, how you babysitting your child?
Like, that don't make sense.
But I've never understood people who, you know,
and I think having the same account down here in the world where we live in,
it keeps your relationship intact.
Right.
I mean, I trust my husband to the fullest,
but at the same time,
he ain't got no money to give me.
Don't play around, you know.
But you know what, though?
I'm going to take the key word to what she said.
She said her and her husband have been together 20-something years.
Right.
Gabrielle, you and Dwyane Wade
ain't been together that long.
That's true.
That's the other reality of the situation
nobody talking about.
Like, you know, when you've been nobody talking about. Like, you know,
when you've been with somebody
for so long,
you know,
you move a little different.
Ashley, good morning.
Good morning, Envy.
Good morning, Charlamagne.
Good morning.
How you feeling, Ashley?
What's your thoughts on this topic?
I'm good.
I'm good.
My thoughts are
my money is my money.
I'm fine with quitting the bill,
but I don't want to do an account.
I want to keep my money separate.
I've seen too many people get divorced and lose too much stuff.
Ashley.
I'm not with it.
Ashley.
What's up?
You ain't got no man.
I do, though.
We've been together 11 years.
Are you married or no?
How old are we?
33.
No, I said, are y'all married?
Oh, no.
No, we're not married.
Oh, well, okay.
It's going to be different.
It might be different when y'all get married,
but I can't believe y'all been together 11 years,
and that's how you feel, but I'm not mad at you.
Well, I mean, they're dating,
so even if you get married and you have kids,
that's how y'all going to keep things the same?
Your money's your money, his money his money?
I mean, yeah, it's been working for us as far.
Like, you know, I just, I'd rather know what I have
and know nobody can send it but me,
unless I give it to you.
But when y'all formed that union, though, when y'all formed that union, there is no I and I is our now.
I mean, I guess that's why it hasn't happened.
I don't know.
Dang.
All right, Ashley.
Candy.
Yes.
Good morning, Candy.
How you feeling?
I'm good.
How are you?
Good, good, good.
For people just joining us, we're talking about Gabrielle Union. She did a recent
interview talking about her and Dwayne Wade.
They split the bills 50-50.
So what's your thought on this, Kani?
Well, we don't split. My husband and I don't
split anything half and half. He drives trucks
and I teach Head Start.
But he makes more than I do. So like
the household bills, we don't split. He pays all that
and maybe like I'll take care of toilet paper.
You know. Wait, wait, wait, wait. So he pays the household bills and you don't split. He pays all that and maybe I'll take care of toilet paper.
Wait, wait, wait.
So he pays the household bills and you pay for toilet paper? I mean, you know, toilet
paper, paper towels.
That's expensive and it's very important.
That stuff is important.
It is important, but
it doesn't equal up to the household bill.
No. So y'all don't do a 50-50 split.
Y'all don't put it in the same pot.
He pays some of the bills, you pay some of the bills.
Right.
Why don't y'all do it in the same account? I'm just curious to why.
I guess we can try to do it.
We just recently got married, so I guess we can talk about that.
No, no, no. I'm not forcing you to.
I'm just asking. Just curious. Just a question, mama.
No, we just never really done it.
I wish that we as couples could calculate
all of the things that each other does as individuals.
Like how much would being a mom raising six kids, how much would that cost?
Exactly. I know my wife's going to be cleaning the house, cooking, shopping, getting the clothes.
And as men, the sweat equity that, you know, a lot of us put in going to work every day.
How much would that cost i'm not
talking about as far as like the the money we get for what we do i'm just talking about just the
cost of the sweat equity no you're right because if we saw that we would look at this totally
different because what that woman said isn't accurate when she says all she does is buy the
toilet paper and everything else there's so many things I'm sure that woman does around the house that is equal or greater
to what that man
brings in. No, you're right. Because like you said,
if you imagine, if you have
a wife that has kids and
she has to feed the kids, she has to
do grocery shopping, she has to buy the clothes,
she registers the kids in school, registers
the kids in sports. She's got to play nurse.
She plays nurse. She's a chef.
Chef. She's the hairstylist, the wardrobe custodian.
That's what I'm saying.
There is a lot that goes into it.
That's what I'm saying.
I'm not going to say that fellas don't do it and men don't do it.
We don't.
My wife do way more than I do.
She does it way more than me.
And when we try, like on Mother's Day, we fail miserably.
So that's what I mean.
Like, if you could calculate all of that, you wouldn't look at this as 50-50 because
the percentage would be totally off.
I'm not even joking.
My daughter took a shower last night, right?
And I put my daughter in the shower.
She's six years old.
My wife was like,
did you wash her back?
I'm like, Brooklyn, get back in the shower.
Jesus Christ.
I know.
Jesus Christ.
I don't want that job.
All I'm simply saying is
if we calculated all of that stuff,
it wouldn't be 50-50.
Like the scale would be tipped tremendously to the other side.
Well, then we're taking your calls.
800-585-1051.
We're talking Gabrielle Union.
She did an interview recently, and she was talking about her finances with Dwayne Wade.
She says she splits the bills 50-50.
What's your thoughts?
It's The Breakfast Club.
Come on in.
It's topic time.
Pick up the phone, baby. What's your thoughts? It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club.
Let's talk about it.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking about Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wade.
Now, this comes from a recent interview she did,
and she was talking about her splitting the bills 50-50 with her husband.
Let's listen.
That first sense of security and that the work is coming,
and I just, as long as I keep knocking it out, there's going to be more,
and there isn't this sort of sense of the rug could still be pulled out.
I struggle with that still just because I think I just have more responsibilities,
you know, for my money.
It's weird to say I'm head of household
because in this household, we split everything 50-50.
But in the other households that each of us have to support,
it puts this, there's always this like gorilla on your back
that is like, you better work.
You better work. Somebody might not eat. Come on back that is like you better work you better work
somebody might not eat come on get away and it's hard it's hard to let that go so i'm working on
that all right so we're asking what are your thoughts and we got tracy on the line tracy
good morning hey good morning hey bro what's your thoughts brother so my thought is this
if it's a regular couple and they work they both work in jobs i don't see nothing wrong with
going 50 50 but if the woman's in like school or something like that i understand a man paying the
bills but if the man's paying all the bills and the woman's not doing anything how they ever going
to get anywhere like as far as investments and and growing a better future for the family leaving
the legacy how they gonna get anywhere if they regular people and the man's just spending all
the money on the bills this goes back to exactly what we were just talking about.
You just said that woman's not doing nothing, but I guarantee you,
if you go to that hypothetical woman's house you're talking about
and you see all of the things that she does on the daily in that house,
you would realize that nothing you're saying is a huge something.
Tracy, are you married, Tracy?
Nah, I'm not married. I'm not saying she's not doing nothing but
I'm saying what is she doing with them yeah no no listen to what I'm saying though okay with the
money that she's saving that she's not paying bills I understand that she's being a mother
what is she doing with that money that she's not spending or putting it into investments for the
family I get what you're saying you know what I. I thought you said you wasn't making no money.
I thought you said you wasn't doing nothing.
No, no, no, no.
What is she doing with her money?
Is she just putting her money in her account
and spending it and buying bags, shoes,
and going on trips with the girls?
Right.
Or is she taking that money
and putting it back to the house
or investing it or whatever it is?
No, I agree.
That's why I say,
you know, put it all into one pot
and it should be the household's money
to, you know, to take care of the household, build the kids and all that.
I see what you say.
Thank you.
Hello.
Who's this?
Valencia.
Hey, Valencia.
Good morning.
Good morning.
How are y'all doing?
Good.
Bless black and highly favored.
Amen.
What's your thoughts?
So on your on your topic, I don't think there's anything wrong with 50 50 i think the issue comes in where if gabrielle
feels like her money has to go to more places maybe he should pay more but i also feel like
maybe she hasn't had a conversation about it but you mean her money has to go to other places i
mean past relationships or parents or family something like that no in the interview she
said she feels like she has more households to contribute to.
So she's constantly stressed about her money.
So maybe it shouldn't be 50-50.
Maybe he should take over more in their household.
I mean, I didn't see the interviews.
I don't know what that means.
But that could mean she's taking care of family.
That's what I was thinking.
You know what I'm saying?
You're taking care of other family members.
You know what I mean?
Like, you could be taking care of your mom.
You could be taking care of your pops, your grandma.
I don't know her family situation.
That's what it sounds like.
But even in family situation, when it's ours, we both decide what goes to family members.
You know what I mean?
All the time.
Because there's family members that may ask my wife for money.
Correct.
You know what I'm saying?
There's family members that may ask me for money.
Correct.
You know?
And those are conversations that we have.
It's usually simple because I ain't got it, but, you know.
Hello, who's this? Darren from Jacksonville. Hey, Aaron. because I ain't got it, but, you know. Hello, who's this?
Aaron from Jacksonville.
Hey, Aaron, good morning.
Talk to us.
Hey, good morning, first and foremost, to both of you.
Love the show.
Thank you, brother.
What's your thoughts?
Hey, my thing is, like, you know, I've said this before,
and this situation is a prime example of that.
And, you know, women treat equality like it's a buffet
that they can just pick and choose what they want out of it.
You know what I mean?
It's a solid.
It's basically like, you know, my money is our money.
And our money is her part of the world.
You know what I mean?
I got you.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's basically like I just think it's
you know
Gabrielle Union
is justified
I don't have a problem
with it
Gabrielle Union
makes money
Dwyane Wade makes money
if she chooses
to be 50-50
that's fine
you know what I mean
I don't have a problem
with it
and I agree
with what he's saying
because this is one
of those situations
women want to scream
independence
and you know
they got their own
but then when you hear
a situation like this
you're like
well how come he ain't paying all the bills when he got all the money right like maybe because
gabrielle don't want him to pam good morning pam hey what's up dj mv how you feeling breakfast club
i'm doing good how are you what's up pam what's your thoughts pam all right so this is what it is
i used to do the 50 50 and then i heard one of my pastors say one day that the breadwinner don't typically do half of the cooking. And
so it shouldn't be a case where
a woman should really basically never have to
split the bills in half.
You probably didn't hear us because
you might have just been joining us, but we said the same thing.
I'm like, yo, if you could calculate
all of the things that women do in a house
from being a mom,
a nurse,
the laundry, the cleaning,
putting the kids to bed, all of these different things that women do,
the scale would be tipped tremendously towards the woman
if there was a percentage of who provided what.
You know what?
Y'all are a set of good men up there.
I'm glad y'all see that.
Your wives, they have done well for themselves.
Well, thank you.
That's a compliment.
Now, I wouldn't listen to everything the pastor says all the time.
So if the pastor tells you, you know, you should sometimes.
First of all, I don't like how you just pay past that compliment.
Okay.
What?
That woman said that our wives are blessed and privileged to have men like us.
That's what I heard.
That's all you heard?
That's exactly what I said.
Because you recognize the value and the worth of a woman and what she contributes to the household.
That's absolutely fact.
That's a fact.
We like you, Pam.
I like y'all, too.
Y'all have a good day.
Have a great day, Pam.
Yeah, I'm not mad at it.
And, you know, we were talking about something earlier, too, in regards to, like, family members.
When they ask us for money, like, people might ask me for money or they might ask my wife for money yep my wife is the no person oh i'm well
i'm i'm the sucker my wife is the no person my wife no but it don't matter who it is my wife
even if it's people on my side of the family tell them to talk to me see he's the no person
this is a good thing see you gotta it's like you gotta go through my mom and pops right
my mom and pops kind of
handle the fine my finances but they don't meaning they look at it like you work hard nobody else
works hard but you so you ain't gonna lend no money so my mom and pops be like no like before
if they you know we know sometimes the family member like let me talk to you in the garage
let me talk to you in this room over here my pops come right with me no absolutely no but that's
that's mom and pops absolutely all right well what's the moral of the story
The moral of the story is
Do what works for you
You know what I'm saying
But I really don't like this
This conversation about
Percentages
You know what I mean
Because like we've been saying all morning
If you really broke it down
And calculated
What each person does
In their respective roles
If you look at all the things
A woman does
To make our lives easier,
oh my God, it would not be 50-50. It'd be like
70-30, 80-20
geared towards the woman.
Alright, now when we come back, we got your rumor report.
We got to talk about Sports Illustrated. When's the last
time you looked at a Sports Illustrated cover?
Never. Well, this one might
make you look. No, it won't. I know exactly what you're talking about.
Yes, it will.
We'll tell you who's on the cover of Sports Illustrated when we come back.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Sports Illustrated.
Rumor has it.
Rumor.
Rumor has it.
Call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty patting.
I'm gossiping.
This is the Rumor Report.
I mean, I guess we on the Breakfast Club.
This is where the tea spills, right?
Yes, on the Breakfast Club.
Now, listening out there, have you guys seen the new Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition?
Have you seen it, Charlemagne?
Because this is something I thought about last night when I seen this story.
I saw the headline, but I wasn't interested in looking at the cover.
You've known her like a cool girl, too?
I do love me an older woman.
That is a fact.
Yes.
Older black woman. Now, Martha a fact yes older black woman now martha
stewart black woman age a little bit different martha stewart becomes the oldest sports
illustrator swimsuit cover model at 81 making history 81 years old 81 years old that's right
she said i'm so thrilled to be on the cover of sports illustrator swimsuit they show you
purchasing this cover charlamagneagne? Nope. Why not?
Because I think when they do stuff like this,
they're setting people
like Martha Stewart
up for failure
because Martha Stewart
does look great for 81, right?
But when you put her
on the cover of Sports Illustrated,
you're just opening her up
for a bunch of scrutiny
and criticism
that she don't deserve
because the people
who order Sports Illustrated
on the regular
are looking for something
in particular
and it's not an 81-year-old woman.
How do you know? I'm almost positive. That's why it's never happened before this is what martha
stewart talking about it usually i'm motivated by pay but i this time i was motivated by showing
people that a woman my age can still look good feel good be good blah blah blah when i heard that
i was going to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit,
I thought, oh, well, that's pretty good.
I'm going to be the oldest person, I think,
ever on a cover of Sports Illustrated.
And I don't think about age very much,
but I thought that this is kind of historic.
I want other women, especially women,
to feel that they could also be
on the cover of Sports Illustrated with Issue.
I wonder how this issue is going to do.
I don't know.
I also don't care about Martha Stewart like that.
God bless her, but I never was into Martha Stewart.
You know what I mean?
Like, if anything, Snoop made me care about Martha Stewart a whole lot more than I did prior to that.
So it's not something you purchase and you see it at the airport.
You're not going to buy this one.
I don't buy Sports Illustrated, period.
Not this swimsuit issue.
All right.
Well, it's out right now.
You can definitely check it out.
Are you interested?
Mm-hmm. Are you interested, sir? No. Because you keep asking about it. No, it's out right now. You can definitely check it out. Are you interested? Mm-hmm.
Are you interested, sir?
No.
You keep asking about it.
No.
It's not my team.
You see this?
What's that?
What's that say right there?
I can't see because it's covered.
Read.
What does that say?
What does that say right there?
Senior healthy living.
That's what Martha Stewart need to be on the cover of.
Oh, shut up, man.
I'm reading the New York Daily News, and that's what they have.
It's called Senior Healthy Living, and it's what they have, senior healthy living.
And there's a whole article about how seniors live in the springtime.
That's what Martin needs to be doing.
Well, Michael Wilborn, you know him from ESPN, he refuses to buy his son Jay Morant's sneaker.
Ja?
I said Jay.
Ja Morant's sneaker.
The question is, is he going to do the work that is required of himself to get out of this and for this not to be the end?
Because what's going to happen now? Nike going to pull that shoe? Is Powerade going to pull that drink?
I know in my house, I told Matthew, you can't have the shoe. I'm not buying that shoe.
You're not buying that shoe. Our money as a family is not going toward that.
And so I'm not the only one who's going to feel that way. And by the way, I am fascinated with John Moran.
John Moran, he's so smart.
We talk about intelligence.
You listen to John Moran post-game.
The engagement level and the intellect are unmistakable.
But yet, this whole fake gangster theme that I thought we were past as a culture some years ago,
I guess he's not past it.
He and his.
It's sad.
I mean, I'm sure that's how a lot of people feel.
And that's exactly what all these companies that John endorses are thinking about.
From Nike to Powerade, all these people are thinking, can this guy still endorse our products?
And you can't act like what Michael Wilbon is doing is something different than what our parents did growing up. I know when I was walking around with Chuck Taylor
as a kid and I had my Los Angeles
Raiders sweatshirt, which didn't even say Raiders
because it was missing a part of the D, so it
said Railers. And I had, you know, a
big afro. When Snoop caught that murder
case, my dad made me
cut my hair. He's like, oh, you think you Snoop Dogg?
Didn't want me listening to no Snoop, none of that
type of stuff. Yeah, I mean, it's a fact.
I mean, are a lot of parents going to buy John Moran's jersey.
Are they going to buy the sneakers?
Are they going to buy a lot of the things that John Moran supports?
Are they going to allow their kids to follow John Moran on social media and be like John Moran?
I don't know.
I don't know.
And I doubt it.
But I doubt it.
And that's exactly what a lot of these companies are thinking.
You know what I mean?
They're like, oh, shoot, Jai endorses our products,
but is him endorsing our products going to cause people not to support our products?
Why do you think they hire these people as pitchmen?
They hire them because they think that these people are going to bring an audience
to purchase their products.
So if they ever do anything that makes folks feel like,
I'm not going to purchase their products, that's when they sever ties.
Did Allen Iverson have that same scrutiny with his tattoos and the clothes that he wore? I know you ain't
asking that question. His situation in Virginia
where they... I know you're not
asking that question. I honestly don't remember. Of course.
They changed the whole dress
code for the NBA. I don't remember
people saying, I'm not buying his jersey
or not selling his sneakers or not buying his sneakers. I don't remember
that far. They didn't have to because
the coaches supported Allen
Iverson. We were figuring out ways.
I know I was getting
my little money buying
every Allen Robinson jersey
out of East Bay.
I didn't need my parents
to buy me that stuff.
I didn't need my parents
to buy me the Anson sneakers.
Once I started making
a little bit of money
in the street,
I would mine that stuff
myself out of East Bay.
Now, AI was the only one
so we always supported AI.
Yeah, when I started
working little jobs and stuff,
that's the stuff
I would purchase
out of East Bay.
Y'all don't remember East Bay?
Of course.
Man.
I think the last East Bay magazine came out six months ago, and I think it discontinued
now.
I don't think they send the magazines out anymore.
And by the way, it'll be the same thing for Ja Morant.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, if there's people who are into that culture, like they're into that, what he's
presenting, they'll find a way to still buy his jerseys and still buy his sneakers.
The hip-hop culture will still support John Morant.
I don't want to say hip-hop culture.
I think so.
I don't want to say hip-hop.
I think so.
I think there's a certain element
that is still into that
that would support that.
I think they'll still support that.
It's the same thing.
And I think,
you know what?
I think people like bad guys.
I think people will still
support John Morant.
Like I said,
I still see these kids
in suburban areas
with a Pooh Shiesty mask
over their face for no reason.
People like bad guys.
They do.
But the problem is you can like bad guys all you want.
Him being a bad guy is not good for him.
No.
It's not good for him and his brand.
Correct.
He's going to be the one that loses the endorsement deals.
You know what I mean?
He's going to be the one that's going to be getting suspended without pay.
So you can like the rebel all you want, but the rebel ain't doing nothing but hurting himself.
The bad guy in this situation ain't doing nothing but hurting himself.
Now, lastly, we got to talk about Timberland.
Shout out to the OG Timberland.
He credits Jay-Z and Drake for being the voices of reason
during his darkest moments of his life.
Now, he spoke with Shannon Sharp on Club Shay-Shay
and talked about when he was addicted to drugs.
You had an addiction.
Yes, I did.
How did this addiction come about?
Not really being sure who I am.
I was fighting the enemy within me.
It started with a dentist taking Vicodin.
Then the Vicodin made me feel like Superman.
And then all of a sudden, I found myself just taking it all the time.
I had a doctor that was giving it to me all the time.
And then I was on it for like, I was taking like 160 milligrams a day of Oxycontin.
And everybody that I know who done that died.
You know what I'm saying?
So I think I even died, you know, at one point in time where I got out.
I had an out-of-body experience where I was laying in the bed and I saw myself laying in the bed.
And from that point on, you know, God has changed my mind.
And I did a cold turkey hit.
I just started weaning myself off
wow well he didn't that that's not dying that's called a out-of-body experience astral projection
yeah i've been doing that my whole life but i will say this um people talk about vicodin and
oxycodone and how it feels and a lot of people always talk about it after they get a surgery
or after they go to the dentist it's amazing that's why whenever i have a surgery anything like that i try my hardest not to take anything it's amazing i'll take a tylenol i'll
deal with the pain because i'm always nervous because i always hear horrible stories like that
yeah it's amazing no it's amazing it is amazing and it is easy to get addicted to why you got
your bag you put your bag up what you got in your bag bro i just i got some heavy ibuprofen in my
bag but that has nothing to do with anything that That's because I got to get a root canal.
My tooth is hurting.
But the reality of the situation,
that stuff is amazing
and it is very addictive.
I remember being
in a car accident once.
I went back for a couple
prescriptions that I didn't eat.
Hell yeah.
What did it feel like?
You just be floating.
You just feel,
it do feel like
an out-of-body experience,
but not,
it don't feel like astral planing,
but it feel like
you're disconnected.
And if you're a person that has trouble disconnectinging i mean i have different methods to disconnect now you know especially uh meditation but right if you if you have trouble
disconnecting it will help you disconnect damn it all right well that is your rumor report now

Goes to a 28-year-old Colorado man who has not been named,
but he was arrested for drinking and driving, speeding, and resisting arrest.
Listen, ever so often I have to get on this radio
and remind y'all of the dangers of drinking and driving.
Why? I don't know.
I can't believe that in 2023 folks are still catching duis with all
these ride share you know uh apps that are available there is absolutely never a reason
to get behind the wheel of a vehicle intoxicated i know i have told you all about the many drunk
driving campaigns that exist uh drive sober or get pulled over buzz driving is drunk driving
uh the the drive sober no regrets campaign that has the billboards with the car totaled.
And it says you survived.
They didn't.
Powerful, powerful anti-drunk driving campaigns exist.
So we can't act like we don't know.
But yet you still have folks like this 28-year-old in Colorado who choose to drink and drive.
Now, drinking and driving is always donkey of the day worthy.
But that's not the only reason this 28-year-old man is getting donkier today.
Did they see one of the most fascinating things about drunk drivers is they always act like they're not drunk.
Even when they are visibly intoxicated, they will say they're not drunk.
That's why field sobriety tests are so hilarious because people choose to take these field sobriety tests
knowing they don't have what
it takes to pass them and most of the time when you're drunk you smell like you're drunk you talk
like you're drunk and you think like you're drunk and you have no idea how stupid you sound but i
guarantee never in the history of life have you heard a drunk story like this one see this man
was drunk okay pissy drunk and the police know he was drunk out of his mind.
But he absolutely confirmed he was drunk when he did what he did to attempt to get out of this situation.
Let's go to NBC News 9 for the report, please.
Rough night for at least a driver in a southeastern Colorado town.
That's because he tried to switch seats with his dog after being pulled over on suspicion of DUI.
Now, what happened in the small town of Springfield, that's in Colorado's southeastern corner. Springfield police say an
officer pulled over a driver going 52 and a 30 and then the driver tried to switch seats with his
dog. The dog had been in the passenger seat. Police say there were also two sober people in the back
seat, one of whom the actual owner of the car.
Springfield's police chief says he doesn't know why one of them wasn't driving.
The driver, who they found in the passenger seat, was booked on several charges,
as well as two prior warrants coming out of Pueblo.
Not every crime comes with a criminal mastermind.
It seems like...
No, it does not.
Depending on the status of the person who switched, the dog may have been a better driver.
Humans are so silly.
I mean, we're just a silly species.
Tell me you're intoxicated without telling me you're intoxicated.
You get pulled over for drunk driving.
You got two sober people in the back seat.
Your dog in the passenger seat.
Instead of picking the two sober people to switch places with, you switch places with your dog.
Not dog in slang like like this your homie like your dog the actual animal the domesticated descendant of the wolf you put that carnivore in the driver's seat and look the
police dead in their eye and tell them your four-legged fairy friend is driving you know i
think it's high time that we as humans apologize to dogs okay we say things like they're man's best friend
but the reality is if you had a best friend that you lied on as much as we lie on dogs that wouldn't
be your friend okay think about the lies we tell on our dogs the biggest one my dog ate my homework
okay first of all how come your dog so hungry they would have to eat your homework all right
that should have always been the first response to anyone who used this lie who is who is neglecting
and not
feeding this mongrel at your house okay that they had to eat your homework and how many times have
you farted amongst company okay one of those silent killers that for whatever reason you thought it
wouldn't smell but it did and you blamed it on rover okay we as humans owe dogs a massive massive
apology and what we don't realize as humans is that dogs have the ability to detect deception there was a study that researchers at the University
of Vienna did that shows dogs know when your ass is lying okay when you're
telling him you don't got any more scraps to share when you're telling her
is too cold outside for a walk in the summertime when they barking and won't
stop barking because they know that man you got in your bedroom is not
your husband yes researchers at the University of Vienna said this week dogs
know when you're lying to them about almost anything and what's sad is dogs
don't speak the same language as humans so even when they trying to explain to
other humans that this human is lying it just sounds like a bunch of noise a
bunch of barking don Don't believe me?
Well, we actually have audio footage from the actual traffic stop.
This is the actual traffic stop that happened in Colorado
where the human who was drunk driving switched seats with his dog.
Let's listen.
Good morning. License and registration, please.
Uh, okay, well, Mr. Barkley, do you know why I pulled you over?
Uh, actually, you were swerving in between lanes.
Your car smells like kibbles and bits, and I see the empty bottles on your floor.
You should get a DWB.
Oh, you sick puppy. puppy no not driving while black dwb is a dog with beers i don't care if you're having a rough day you don't drink and drive dog on it now step out
of the car you just got yourself sent to the dog house. Now, let me get that dog feed on me.
Free Fido.
Please give this 28-year-old Colorado man who switched seats with his dog to avoid a DUI the biggest hee-haw.
It's a damn shame what we be doing to dogs nowadays.
All right.
That's all we got I know you're not
about to play
I'm not about to play
a game of guess what race

What's the craziest thing you blamed on your dog?
Oh, yes.
This is a good one.
This is a good one.
What is the craziest thing you've ever blamed on your dog?
I remember we had a producer here one time.
And she didn't make it.
It wasn't a dog, though.
I know, I know.
But I just got to tell the story.
She couldn't make it to work because she was locked in the bathroom.
By her cat.
And she said her cat hit the lock button on the doorknob and locked it in the bathroom.
You know we love you.
You know who you are.
Remember that same person?
That same person said that when the alarm didn't go off.
The cat chewed the wire on the alarm.
That was another time.
That's right.
Yes.
So we're asking, 800-585-1051, what's one thing that your dog did that you blamed your dog on?
That you did that you blamed your dog on.
That is the question.
And you owe your dog an apology.
Take this time this morning to not only tell us what you lied on your dog about, but also to apologize to your dog for lying, damn it.
800-585-1051.
I mean, let's have this conversation.
Yes. Long overdue.
The Breakfast Club.
It's topic time.
Call 800-585-1051
to join in to the discussion
with The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you're just joining us, Charlamagne gave Donkey of the Day to who, Charlamagne?
This 28-year-old from Colorado who got pulled over for drunk driving,
and he had two sober people in the backseat, but instead of switching seats with them,
he decided to switch seats with his dog, his actualine his four-legged furry friend okay so we're asking 800-585-1051
what's the craziest thing you blamed on your dog um i haven't blamed anything on my dog i'll be
honest with you i don't have no dog i don't like dogs i haven't i've been scarred you said you
about the by dog i am but i've been traumatized you know because back in the day we i had two
rottweilers named Bear and Tara, and the
neighbors poisoned Tara. At least that's
my story. I feel like they poisoned Tara.
And, you know, ever since then, watching Bear grow up
lonely without his brother really hurt my feelings, so I never
wanted a dog, but I want a dog now.
Okay.
Alright, well, let's go to the phone line. I feel like you didn't take my
trauma serious. 585-105-1.
We're talking about what's one thing you blamed on
your dog. Hello, who's this?
This is Renee. Renee, where you calling from?
Bronx. Bronx. Oh, boy.
This is going to be such a hood story.
I feel it. I bet it has to do with
alcohol or weed or guns.
Or not paying your rent. Which one is it?
Dog ain't your rent money? Nope.
He be taking my blunt. I told you.
Oh, the dog be taking your blunt?
Yeah, I be smoking in my reclining chair.
I put it down.
Then I want to light it back up again.
I look around, it's gone.
So why don't you just blow your dog a shotgun like normal people?
Then he wouldn't have to just steal your weed.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
It's for me, not for him.
Well, until you start sharing with him, he's going to keep stealing it.
This is the Bronx, man.
Could you start just blowing him a shotgun every now and then?
He won't steal it, man.
This is the Bronx. Don't blow your dog a shotgun. shotgun every now and then? He won't steal it, man. This is the Bronx.
Don't blow your dog a shotgun.
What's wrong with that?
Hello, who's this?

Good morning, everyone.
Hey, Diamond.
Hey, Diamond.
Now, where you calling from, Mama?
From New Jersey.
New Jersey.
All right.
So what's one thing you blamed on your dog?
So it wasn't me.
It was my boyfriend at the time.
I came home, and the sheep were away.
And I'm like, what's going on? Like, why is the sheep away?
It's been like a few hours, and he blamed the dog.
But I don't think it was the dog. I think it was him with another woman,
or him doing things by himself. It was not the dog.
Let me ask you a simple question. Has he ever made you squirt?
Yes, but I wasn't home, so I know it wasn't me either.
So that's what she said. She thinks it was another woman, and then he blamed it on the dog.
Okay.
He definitely blamed the dog. It then she blamed it on the dog. Okay. She definitely
blamed the dog.
It could have
been him and
the dog.
Maybe it could
have been.
That's why he
blamed my man
no more.
He's a dog.
Oh, he's
a dog.
Jesus.
Hello, who's
this?
Hello, this is
Noah Danford
from Nova Scotia,
Canada.
All right.
You're calling
from Canada?
Yeah, Canada, Nova Scotia.
What, you listening to us on the iHeartRadio app?
Yep.
Okay, well, what's one thing you blame on your dog?
Well, listen, my girlfriend called me cheating a couple months ago,
and I had to blame it on my dog, man.
How did you do that?
I'm confused.
Well, there's a condom in the bed, and I know it wasn't me,
so I had to blame the dog. What did she say when you told her the dog there's a condom in the bed and i know it wasn't me so i had to blame the
dog what did she say when you told her the dog was wearing a condom man she believed it she believed
it yes she believed that swear to god you tell y'all something man you shouldn't swear to god
you shouldn't swear to god you know back in the day man we used to eat there used to be these kids
they used to eat lunch before us.
And they used to ride buses.
That's like a little bus.
A little shorter than the ones we used to ride.
And, man, some of those kids are adults now.
And they be calling the radio station early in the morning, man.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, I'm DJ Envy and Charlamagne.
This is Miss Mitchell.
Hey, Miss Mitchell.
Good morning.
Hey, I want to say it is my cat. I have three cats. This is Miss Mitchell. Hey, Miss Mitchell. Good morning. Hey, I want to say it is
my cat. I have three cats.
One of my cats, I'm finishing up
a master's program. She did
eat my homework and I really didn't even
tell my teacher that she ate my homework
because I was thinking in my head, like, what is my
teacher? My teacher is probably going to think that I'm lying.
And then recently, I
bought a textbook and my cat
scratched out the first page of the textbook.
So they do get into places where they should not get into.
So question, why are you not feeding your cat?
Why is your cat so hungry that your cat decided to eat your homework?
Is there a reason?
First of all, Charlamagne, you are not coming for me today.
Just ask the question.
I take care of my cats.
I got bougie cats.
And I do want to say real quick before you guys cut me off.
Charlamagne, I'm so disappointed in you.
Sometimes you talk out of both sides of your mouth.
With Martha being on the cover of Sports Illustrated at 81 years old,
it's good every now and then not to see a butt-naked model on the cover of the magazine.
It had a plus size.
Now you have an elderly woman on the magazine.
You always acting like you're
uplifting women but then you take a hit i don't take a shot at her i didn't take a shot i just
said that i know that they're opening her up for criticism from people who don't want to see that
because they're used to seeing something else on the cover of sports illustrated it's like yo
it's beautiful it's beautiful that she's 81 and looks good but why the cover of sports illustrated
i can i can almost guarantee she she getting slandered crazy online,
and I haven't even looked.
But I'm not going to slander her,
and there's a lot of other women that's not going to slander her
because, you know what, as a mom of children, of female children,
it's good sometimes to get, and I understand that core audience,
but at the same time, it's good for my child to see the first woman,
or if I happen to show my children the Sports Illustrated magazine, first time they see an elderly woman, and then we can explain to them what first woman on if i happen to show my children the sports illustrated magazine
first time they see an elderly woman and then we can explain to them what's going on but i'm
ma'am ma'am ma'am once again once you you said it best you're not the core audience the core
audience the core audience i'm sure is slandering martha to death and that's not that's not fair to
her well i'm gonna buy you that that magazine just so you can see it. No, you're not.
Huh?
No, you're not.
Yes, I am.
And by the way, I didn't say nothing bad about Martha.
You asked me a question.
Do I want to see that?
I said no.
I'm going to buy it.
Why can't I say no?
Why can't I say I don't want to see, when you ask me, do I want to see Martha Stewart
on the front of Sports Illustrated, or am I going to buy it?
Why can't I say no, and that be fine?
Well, I'm going to get it for you.
No.
I'm cool.
I'm cool.
800-585-1051.
Back to the dog.
Charlemagne gave a dog in the day to who?
This 28-year-old individual from Colorado who actually switched seats with his dog who was in the passenger seat because he was trying to avoid a DUI.
All right.
So what's the craziest thing you blamed on your dog?
And I'm not going to lie.
These phone lines are lit up.
I definitely didn't think that.
But I see a lot of you crazy people out there blame a lot of stuff on your dogs.
We'll take some more calls when we come back.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
It's topic time.
Pick up the phone, baby.
Call 800-585-1051 to join in for the discussion with the Breakfast Club.
Let's talk about it.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club. Now, Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club now charlamagne
gave donkey of the day to who charlamagne a 28 year old from colorado who uh got pulled over
for drunk driving and to avoid uh dui he switched places with his dog tell me you drunk without
telling me you drunk all right so we're asking what's the craziest thing you blamed on your dog
hello who's this hi how you doing this is nit? Hello, who's this? Hey, how you doing? This is Nye Trisha from Virginia.
Hey, Nye Trisha.
Good morning.
How you feeling?
I'm blessed and highly favored, I'd say.
Blessed black and highly favored, Trisha.
Blessed black and highly favored, I'd say.
There you go.
So what did you blame on your dog, mama?
Well, I thought my husband was cheating on me, right?
Because I went to snooze on his phone.
He speaks Spanish and I couldn't translate, but I just saw a lot of kissy faces in the morgue.
You know, so what I did was, while he went to go take a shower, I took all his tennis shoes and I started cutting it up.
Cutting it up with a knife.
And then when he popped out, you know, I threw the shoes to the side, went and laid down.
And then he was like, I'm about to go to the gym. And I know
my dog don't like him. I know my dog can't
stand here. So when he went to go get
his fingers, he was like, what the hell happened to my
shoestrings? I was like, hmm,
maybe Teddy did it. I don't know.
And he was like, uh, well,
let me tell you about this. I ran into my auntie,
and she's in Honduras,
and it's been a long time since we
talked, so we've been texting back and
forth and I was like, is she
Spanish? Does she speak English?
She was like, no, she don't speak no English.
And I was like, God damn.
So you cut up your man's
shoes and he wasn't even cheating on you.
Did you at least buy him some new shoes?
I don't care. Speak English.
All them kissy faces and stuff like that.
He know I don't speak no Spanish.
He know that.
It's not Teddy don't like to eat, but that was very bad.
What you got to do with the dog?
Because she cut up the shoelaces and said the dog did it.
Oh, got you.
Yeah.
Because Teddy already done chewed up a couple things in here because he can't stand them.
So that's why I blame it on my precious Teddy.
There's a big difference between chewing things
and cutting things up.
You can tell when something's been chewed up or cut up.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, this is Aisha.
Hey, Aisha, where you calling from?
West Ashley.
Hey, 843, what's happening?
What's going on, Richard?
Now, what did you do?
What did you blame on your dog, Mama?
Okay, so there was a party one night
and i had a lot of people over at my mother's house and i'm lactose intolerant but they had
like this beautiful cotton candy kind of unicorn cake and ice cream and i wanted it so bad even
though i know what was gonna happen you know so I really had it I took it I was like
forget y'all I'm gonna be okay so it's just you know I'm just gonna go to the bathroom it's not
gonna matter so about two hours later I had to use the bathroom and at the moment there was a
line at the bathroom and then my boyfriend had took my car so I couldn't go nowhere so I was
like you know what whatever
other than that i've been like you know drunk so i went behind the yard and i was about to
go in the backyard boy that girl nanny up that girl nanny up any so you pooped in the backyard
that girl nanny up now and then the next morning my mother came and she went outside. I can't remember why, but she did.
And she run back in the house and was like, who pooped in my yard?
And I was like, it was the dog.
First of all, dog nanny and people nanny look totally different now.
How did you wipe your butt?
She didn't.
I can't even remember.
That girl didn't nanny up.
Boy, you stink
And that was a lactose intolerant poop
So it was all diarrhea
Oh you're disgusting
You should be ashamed of yourself
And you
I don't
I'm so sorry
How old were you?
And my mother knew it wasn't a dog
I was 18
So you probably
You probably went and spread your legs
Without wiping your ass
For some man that night.
No, I don't know.
I don't think that.
I woke up literally on the living room floor.
I can't even remember.
I didn't know I did that.
You woke up on the living room floor with an unwiped bunkie in it.
Dude who stays all in your thong, all in your pill.
This is disgusting.
I don't even want to talk about this story.
I don't even want to have this conversation no more.
We going to commercial now because you so nasty.
Goodbye.
This nanny up all over yourself.
I want you to really think about it, right?
The New York girl called and said the dog ate her blunt.
The South Carolina girl called and said she pooped, didn't wipe, and blamed it on the dog.
That's not what happened.
What'd she say?
That's not what happened.
Yes, it is.
What's the moral of the story? The moral of the story is wipe your ass okay don't ever use the
bathroom without wiping your ass get your wet wipes i don't care if you gotta damp the toilet
tissue a little bit there is never a reason to leave a bathroom without your ass wiped you are
a disgusting human you are a terrible creature if you do not wipe your ass after you use the
bathroom this is
about the dog this has nothing about wiping your butt no we need to don't worry dogs dogs lick
their ass that's how that's how much dogs want their bum to be clean humans should have the same
dignity for the booty as dogs do all right well all right well when we come back i think we have
an update on jamie foxx i've been hearing so many things going on so we'll tell you what we know
what we heard what the news is now reporting.
I'm confused.
You are too.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Jamie Foxx.
Rumor has it.
Rumor.
Rumor has it.
Call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty patty.
I'm gossiping.
This is the rumor report.
I mean, I guess we on The Breakfast Club.
This is where the tea spills, right?
Yes.
On The Breakfast Club.
Now, there's so many different reports about Jamie Foxx.
We, you know, last week his, Jamie Foxx's daughter said Jamie Foxx is doing fine.
He was home.
He was playing pickleball and everything was great.
But now there's a new report saying that he's receiving medical treatment out in Chicago.
He's at a rehab spot in Chicago.
His family's by his side and that they are just helping him out.
And this facility allegedly specializes in stroke recovery, brain injury rehab and spinal cord injury rehab and cancer rehabilitation.
So regardless, you know, we continue to pray for Jamie Foxx and hope it all works out great.
And we're just loving him.
And I love all the posts.
I love everybody showing support.
I love everybody praying for him.
And let's continue to do that.
Jamie Foxx is a great individual.
That's all you can do.
Send that brother healing energy, man, and put a prayer in the air for him.
All right.
Now, also, shout to Nori.
Nori uh of course
he does drink champs with efn and they had rick ross on the show and they asked rick ross about
uh competition with me and ross this is not one of those car shows where you come and if you win
they give you the 50 plastic trophy when you go home no no, no, no, no, no. This is where you get the network,
really boss up the chains and the keys that are given you. This is, damn, there's six figures that
I'm going to put. So someone wins a prize. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, we got big boys coming from out of the country.
Right. From all over the,
you know, in the US. So it's going to be a real huge event.
How many cards do you think you're going to have? I know we're expecting close to 7,000 people.
Damn.
Wasn't you an Envy battler at one point?
No, Envy was never on my level.
He's battler.
No, no, no.
I wouldn't do that to Envy.
I rock with Envy.
I agree.
What's the problem?
Yeah, so Ross threw that out there.
What do you agree with?
I thought he said you got on his level with the car shows.
You agree?
Drop one of the clues bombs for Rick Ross.
What's the problem?
I don't know.
I said I agree.
What you agree on?
That you're not on his level.
What's the problem?
What's his level?
What you mean what's his level?
What's his level?
If I'm not on his level, what's his level?
What's his level?
You played it.
I agree you're not on his level.
Whatever his level is, I agree.
And you don't explain what the level is.
I agree that you're not on his level with the car show.
I disagree.
Don't tell me why you disagree.
State your case, gangster.
Well, I mean, having 7,000 people at his car show is cute.
We have about 15,000, 20,000 people at our car show.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
I don't charge $400 or $500
to get into my car show. He charges $400 or $500?
I charge, I start at
$19.99.
I do this for a different part.
So financially, you're not on his level?
Because he makes more?
I don't know what he makes. I don't know what sponsors
he has, but I do my car show for
the community. I do it for people that have kids.
Now, he does it in his community, in his backyard.
He does it in his house.
That's what I'm saying. I can't get more community than that.
He does it in his house. You're not really giving
us a convincing case. No, I'm just telling you. I do it for my
community. I do it for people that can't afford
$250, $350, $450,
$500 per person. He does it
for a different type of community. I do it for the people
that have a bunch of kids that want
something for their kids to do. We have rides. We have carnival
games for the kids. We have gaming trucks. We have
food trucks. We have bars.
We have so many different things. We bring NASCARs.
We do it for everybody. I do it
for the people from the areas that I come up in
Queens that look for something to do with their
kids on the weekend that
can't afford $500 a ticket.
That's who I do it for. So I do it for that person
that can only afford $19.99 a ticket or can only afford $29.99 a ticket. That's who I do it for. So I do it for that person that can only afford $19.99 a ticket
or can only afford $29.99 a ticket.
And mine, kids five and under are free.
I don't hear it, man.
You got to put that beige rage on.
You need to put a little more sauce.
I know you want me to do it.
Ross had a lot more sauce on drink champs.
Like Ross said, it sounded very convincing when he said you wasn't on his level.
Nah, but you know, he does it for a different level.
I do it for the community.
I do it for the people.
I do it for the people that support me. Ross don I do it for the community. I do it for the people. I do it for the people that support me.
Ross don't do it for the people.
I don't know what.
Ross do it for the car coach people
that can afford $500 a ticket.
I can't afford $500 a ticket.
Shut up.
I can afford it.
Well, guess what?
If you started charging people $500 to get in,
you could afford it.
I don't want to do that to my people.
Let's see what you're saying.
Same thing like when Cesar and I did the seminars.
People were charging $3,000, $5,000.
For what?
We charged $99
and brought everybody there
because we do it
for a bigger cause
and that's for our community
to be saved,
to enjoy.
Not to rip people off.
Not to say that
Ross has ripped people off,
but I don't want to
charge people that much money.
What you should be saying
is there's no competition
because y'all not in competition.
The more car shows,
the merrier.
If he can have a car show, you know, where people show up and you can have several car shows a year where people show up, that's a beautiful thing.
Yeah.
That's what I said.
You look a little hurt, man.
I'm not going to lie.
Play it again.
Can we play?
Can we play?
Play it again.
You're going to push me.
You're going to push me.
I'm going to play it again.
And the Beige Rage is going to go.
I'm just saying.
Maybe I misheard him.
Don't let the Beige Rage. Play it again. Maybe I misheard. Maybe I misheard him. Don't let the Beige Rage.
Play it again.
Play it again, Ray.
Can you play it again, Ray?
Maybe I misheard
the whole conversation.
Play it again.
This is not one of those
car shows where you come
and if you win,
they give you
the $50 plastic trophy
and you go home.
Oh, you got the $50
plastic trophy?
No, no, no, no.
This is where you get
the network really bossed up.
The chains and the keys
that are given you. This is, damn, damn near six figures that I'm gonna put.
So someone wins a prize.
Yeah, we got boys coming from out of the country,
from all over the in the US, so it's gonna be a real huge event.
How many cards you think you're gonna have?
I know we expect that close to 7000 people.
Wasn't you an MV envy battling at one point
no envy was never on my level
okay so what i'm hearing is you have 50 trophies plastic trophies that you give away and he has
cash prizes is this true no i don't have 50 trophies how much. How much are your trophies? We don't do trophies.
We want everybody to bring their cars.
We don't care if you have a Honda Accord or if you have a Bugatti.
Oh, so it's not about winning.
No, it's about showing off your car to people that want to see your car.
Got you, got you, got you.
We don't care about the trophies.
We just want the community to come down and everybody to have a good time so my kids can play with your kids.
Your kids can play with this person's kids and so many different things.
It's not a...
Did they expound on the question?
Did they ask Ross why you're not on his level?
Or did they just leave it at that?
That's Norrie being a little messy.
How does it make you feel?
Let's talk about it.
Let's unpack it a little bit.
Seriously, let's unpack it.
At first, I jumped the gun.
And I did a lot of things that I'm glad I didn't put out.
Okay.
Okay.
The bass raised me to one up.
But then I heard the rest of it
and Ross was joking.
Shout out to Ross.
He wasn't joking.
Yes, he was a little bit.
No, I didn't hear a joke.
You better chill out.
I didn't hear a joke.
You better chill out too.
I didn't hear a joke.
I didn't hear a joke.
I didn't hear any J-O-K-E.
I didn't hear a joke.
I didn't hear a riddle.
I didn't hear anything.
All I heard was him say
you're not on his level.
I'm just asking questions.
I just want to know.
Ross, could you expound?
Maybe go on IG Live later.
But like I said...
And tell us why you feel like
Envy's not on your level.
If you want to go to a car show
where the promoter's not dancing
all in the video...
I'm just messing with you, man.
Shout out to Ross
and his car show.
They're totally
two different car shows.
You know, go to both.
Mine is more family orientated.
We get kids five and under for free.
There's rides for the kids.
There's carnival games.
It's a big family function.
A big family fun day.
So I tell you to come on out.
The first one, of course, is in Memphis.
May 28th out.
We do it for Young Dolph.
And we're going to revisit the family.
You know what I think he did?
That's what I think he did.
I think he called Ross's neighborhood, tried to see if he can buy a house there just so he can join the homeowners association so he could vote.
He wanted people voting for Ross not to have his car show in his in that community no more.
Oh, Envy would have did that.
I feel like you know me well.
I feel like you did that.
I feel like you inquired.
No, no, no.
Ross is giving me cars on the real.
Ross is giving me cars for my car show.
You know, shout to Ross and everything that they're doing over there.
But my car show is May 28th.
The first one is with Young Dolphs Estate.
And shout out to Paper Route.
We're going to have Young Dolphs Fleet there.
We're going to have Key Glock's Fleet.
We're going to have 50 Cent Fleet.
We're going to have Bumby.
So many people pulling up.
So if you haven't got your tickets, get your tickets.
And we'd love to see you put your car in the show.
Like I said, it doesn't matter.
You don't have to have a fully...
We just want your car.
Whatever makes your car great, we want that in the car show and then we go to h town and then i'm banging out with uh
trader truth and all those brothers out there 713 ab and mr rogers and all those people so i can't
