Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:40 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.
Starting point is 00:00:53 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.
Starting point is 00:01:01 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.
Starting point is 00:01:12 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.

Starting point is 00:01:40 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.
Starting point is 00:01:51 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.

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.
Starting point is 00:03:13 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.
Starting point is 00:03:23 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
Starting point is 00:04:13 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
Starting point is 00:04:49 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.
Starting point is 00:05:07 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.
Starting point is 00:05:39 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
Starting point is 00:06:16 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 all my NBA fans, the Lakers and Nuggets will tip off tonight at 8.30 p.m. Eastern time.

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.

Starting point is 00:11:00 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?
Starting point is 00:11:12 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
Starting point is 00:11:33 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
Starting point is 00:12:09 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.
Starting point is 00:12:39 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
Starting point is 00:12:55 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.
Starting point is 00:13:09 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.
Starting point is 00:13:23 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
Starting point is 00:13:36 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.
Starting point is 00:13:49 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.
Starting point is 00:13:56 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,
Starting point is 00:14:04 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.
Starting point is 00:14:20 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.
Starting point is 00:14:34 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?
Starting point is 00:14:56 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
Starting point is 00:15:10 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.
Starting point is 00:15:36 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.
Starting point is 00:15:52 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
Starting point is 00:16:30 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.
Starting point is 00:17:16 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.
Starting point is 00:17:41 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
Starting point is 00:17:57 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?
Starting point is 00:18:26 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
Starting point is 00:18:44 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
Starting point is 00:19:23 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
Starting point is 00:19:45 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
Starting point is 00:19:51 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.
Starting point is 00:19:58 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
Starting point is 00:20:12 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.
Starting point is 00:20:34 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,
Starting point is 00:20:51 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
Starting point is 00:21:08 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,
Starting point is 00:21:15 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.
Starting point is 00:21:25 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
Starting point is 00:21:32 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.
Starting point is 00:21:40 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
Starting point is 00:22:02 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.
Starting point is 00:22:47 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.
Starting point is 00:23:06 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.
Starting point is 00:23:25 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.
Starting point is 00:23:47 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.
Starting point is 00:23:58 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
Starting point is 00:24:28 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.
Starting point is 00:24:48 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?
Starting point is 00:24:54 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.
Starting point is 00:25:01 800-585-1051. 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.
Starting point is 00:25:12 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
Starting point is 00:25:52 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.
Starting point is 00:26:44 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.
Starting point is 00:27:00 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.
Starting point is 00:28:06 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
Starting point is 00:28:26 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.
Starting point is 00:29:07 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.
Starting point is 00:29:39 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,
Starting point is 00:30:07 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
Starting point is 00:30:25 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.
Starting point is 00:31:09 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
Starting point is 00:31:48 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.
Starting point is 00:32:21 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,
Starting point is 00:32:51 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.
Starting point is 00:32:59 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?
Starting point is 00:33:09 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
Starting point is 00:33:30 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.
Starting point is 00:33:46 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.
Starting point is 00:34:03 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.
Starting point is 00:34:27 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.
Starting point is 00:34:36 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.
Starting point is 00:35:21 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
Starting point is 00:35:45 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
Starting point is 00:36:29 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
Starting point is 00:37:10 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,
Starting point is 00:37:45 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.
Starting point is 00:37:57 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.
Starting point is 00:38:06 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
Starting point is 00:38:30 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
Starting point is 00:39:03 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.
Starting point is 00:39:28 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.
Starting point is 00:39:38 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,
Starting point is 00:39:46 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?
Starting point is 00:39:55 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.
Starting point is 00:40:09 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?
Starting point is 00:40:17 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,
Starting point is 00:40:25 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
Starting point is 00:40:41 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.
Starting point is 00:40:58 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.
Starting point is 00:41:08 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.
Starting point is 00:41:24 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.
Starting point is 00:41:40 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.
Starting point is 00:41:55 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
Starting point is 00:42:25 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
Starting point is 00:42:53 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.
Starting point is 00:43:09 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
Starting point is 00:43:24 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.
Starting point is 00:43:37 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.
Starting point is 00:43:49 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.

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
Starting point is 00:44:50 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
Starting point is 00:45:20 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
Starting point is 00:45:53 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.
Starting point is 00:46:26 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
Starting point is 00:46:35 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.
Starting point is 00:46:47 Thank you. Hello. Who's this? Valencia. Hey, Valencia. Good morning. Good morning. How are y'all doing?
Starting point is 00:46:54 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
Starting point is 00:47:21 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.
Starting point is 00:47:37 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.
Starting point is 00:47:49 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?
Starting point is 00:47:59 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.
Starting point is 00:48:12 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.
Starting point is 00:48:30 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
Starting point is 00:48:45 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
Starting point is 00:48:52 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
Starting point is 00:48:58 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
Starting point is 00:49:08 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.
Starting point is 00:49:55 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.
Starting point is 00:50:14 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.
Starting point is 00:50:28 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.
Starting point is 00:50:48 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.
Starting point is 00:51:02 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
Starting point is 00:51:38 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
Starting point is 00:51:52 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
Starting point is 00:52:03 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
Starting point is 00:52:19 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.
Starting point is 00:52:32 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.
Starting point is 00:52:43 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?
Starting point is 00:53:02 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?
Starting point is 00:53:26 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,
Starting point is 00:53:33 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
Starting point is 00:53:42 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,
Starting point is 00:54:09 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.
Starting point is 00:54:25 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.
Starting point is 00:54:42 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.
Starting point is 00:54:47 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?
Starting point is 00:54:54 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.
Starting point is 00:55:11 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.
Starting point is 00:55:41 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.
Starting point is 00:56:07 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
Starting point is 00:56:32 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?
Starting point is 00:56:48 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?
Starting point is 00:57:03 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
Starting point is 00:57:26 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
Starting point is 00:57:41 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.
Starting point is 00:57:51 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
Starting point is 00:57:58 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.
Starting point is 00:58:06 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.
Starting point is 00:58:24 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.
Starting point is 00:58:33 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,
Starting point is 00:58:40 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.
Starting point is 00:58:52 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.
Starting point is 00:59:06 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.
Starting point is 00:59:22 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.
Starting point is 00:59:45 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
Starting point is 01:00:11 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.
Starting point is 01:00:46 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.
Starting point is 01:00:54 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
Starting point is 01:01:04 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 donkey today who you giving that donkey to man four after the hour there is a man in colorado how can i say this we really need to apologize to our dogs.

Starting point is 01:02:27 Yes, it's May 16th. 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
Starting point is 01:02:50 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.
Starting point is 01:03:21 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
Starting point is 01:03:55 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
Starting point is 01:04:36 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.
Starting point is 01:05:02 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.
Starting point is 01:05:30 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
Starting point is 01:06:05 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
Starting point is 01:06:46 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.
Starting point is 01:07:14 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.

I want to hear from you guys out there. 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.
Starting point is 01:09:19 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.

Starting point is 01:12:25 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.
Starting point is 01:12:44 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
Starting point is 01:12:51 blamed my man no more. He's a dog. Oh, he's a dog. Jesus. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 01:12:59 Hello, this is Noah Danford from Nova Scotia, Canada. All right. You're calling from Canada? Yeah, Canada, Nova Scotia.
Starting point is 01:13:07 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,
Starting point is 01:13:24 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.
Starting point is 01:13:51 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
Starting point is 01:14:05 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
Starting point is 01:14:21 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.
Starting point is 01:14:40 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.
Starting point is 01:15:01 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.
Starting point is 01:15:27 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
Starting point is 01:15:57 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?
Starting point is 01:16:09 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.
Starting point is 01:16:21 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?
Starting point is 01:16:39 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.
Starting point is 01:16:52 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
Starting point is 01:17:17 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.
Starting point is 01:17:36 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.
Starting point is 01:18:03 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,
Starting point is 01:18:20 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
Starting point is 01:18:36 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?
Starting point is 01:18:51 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.
Starting point is 01:19:10 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?
Starting point is 01:19:23 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
Starting point is 01:20:05 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.
Starting point is 01:20:41 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
Starting point is 01:20:52 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

What's the moral of the story?

Starting point is 01:21:59 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.

Starting point is 01:22:40 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.
Starting point is 01:22:50 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.
Starting point is 01:23:09 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.
Starting point is 01:23:36 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
Starting point is 01:23:51 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.
Starting point is 01:24:27 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.
Starting point is 01:24:40 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.
Starting point is 01:24:53 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?
Starting point is 01:25:01 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.
Starting point is 01:25:12 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.
Starting point is 01:25:31 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.
Starting point is 01:25:47 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
Starting point is 01:26:03 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
Starting point is 01:26:19 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.
Starting point is 01:26:34 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.
Starting point is 01:26:47 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,
Starting point is 01:26:58 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
Starting point is 01:27:10 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,
Starting point is 01:27:18 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.
Starting point is 01:27:32 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.
Starting point is 01:27:39 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.
Starting point is 01:27:46 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,
Starting point is 01:27:54 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.
Starting point is 01:28:02 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
Starting point is 01:28:26 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.
Starting point is 01:28:53 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.
Starting point is 01:29:11 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.
Starting point is 01:29:22 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.
Starting point is 01:29:30 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.
Starting point is 01:29:38 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
Starting point is 01:29:52 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
Starting point is 01:30:02 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.
Starting point is 01:30:12 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.
Starting point is 01:30:29 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.
Starting point is 01:30:41 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.
Starting point is 01:30:55 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
