Starting point is 00:01:47 but no, I'm guessing that it's not. Today, it's like a fishbowl. People walking by, looking at you. So, when you have a comic,
Starting point is 00:01:53 you have to make those accommodations to make it seem like a comic venue, a comedy venue. But, my, that can be distracting. People outside, pulling up,

Starting point is 00:04:21 will be joining us this morning this is our second time here on The Breakfast Club y'all paid attention. God damn, that's loud. Turn that down. Y'all paid attention last time she came, but something tells me y'all going to really pay attention this morning.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Right. And she's the one that also went at the other representative called the bad, bilty, beige, blonde. Oh, yeah, that shorty. Big back. But Jasmine has more to talk about than that absolutely
Starting point is 00:04:47 and we'll get in front page news next we good now Red a boys mess oh here we go again
Starting point is 00:04:53 alright front page news next maybe it's the breakfast club good morning good morning everybody it's DJ Envy Jess Hilarious
Starting point is 00:05:00 Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get in some front page news now some quick sports the Celtics beat the Mavericks 105-98 the Celtics lead the series That's hilarious. Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now some quick sports. The Celtics beat the Mavericks 105-98.
Starting point is 00:05:10 The Celtics lead the series 2-0. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning. Happy Monday, y'all. Are y'all registered to vote? Are y'all registered to vote? Are y'all registered to vote? We've only got 148 days until Election Day, November 5th. And over the weekend, former President Trump was on the campaign trail in Nevada, which is a swing state.
Starting point is 00:05:29 On Sunday, Trump told supporters that border security and energy policy would be one of his biggest priorities if elected in November. He said in his first week as president, he would crack down on the border and domestic drilling. Let's hear from Trump. The first thing we're going to do is we're going to close that border tight as a drum and we're going to let people come in, but only legal. The second thing we're going to do about five minutes later, it doesn't take long. We're going to drill, baby, drill. We're going to get your energy costs in hand.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Yeah, so, yeah, drill, baby, drill. Trump also slammed President Biden, calling him a low IQ individual, saying if he was president, the attacks on Israel and Ukraine would not have happened. Trump also became visually upset when his teleprompters weren't working. He experienced technical issues. The temperatures were well over 100 degrees in Vegas. And yeah, a Fox poll, a Fox News poll recently conducted showed that Trump is ahead of Biden in Nevada by five percentage points. And it's interesting, too, right? Because, you know, when you're when you're running for president, you got to talk about what you will do. But if you were President Biden, you could talk about what you're actually doing, because
Starting point is 00:06:40 Biden has approved more oil and gas drilling permits on public land than Trump did while trump was in office so i don't know why they just don't immediately put that information out there but i don't work for a campaign so it doesn't matter to me fragmore i said that i told y'all that uh moving on caitlin clark won't be attending the paris olympics with team usa on saturday nbc news reported that the top pick from the 2024 wmba draft will stay behind while the u.S. national team travels to Paris. Now, she did say that she was excited to watch the U.S. women's basketball team compete in the upcoming summer games, adding that she isn't disappointed. But she's now using this as motivation to work towards something in the future, you know, using that snub as a little motivation. Now, the Indiana Fever Guard said that USA basketball officials did contact her before the news leaked out.
Starting point is 00:07:29 So she got a heads up. And while the official team roster has not been announced, sources say it'll be comprised of 12 veteran players. Team USA's first Olympic basketball game is set for July 29th against Japan. Now, this is interesting because I had to do my due diligence on this and see whether or not rookies have gone to the Olympics before. So in 96, Rebecca Lobo went. Yeah, 2002, Diana Taurasi went. Candice Parker went in 08.
Starting point is 00:07:59 And Breanna Stewart went in 2016. Yeah, I don't understand the logic in this. At a time when all eyes are on women's basketball, why wouldn't you put the biggest draw in women's basketball on the team? I saw them saying that they didn't want to upset her fans because she would get limited playing time. But is it about the playing time or is it about the promo and marketing? Is it about getting as many eyeballs on women's basketball as possible?
Starting point is 00:08:21 I didn't understand it either. I mean, it's Kaitlyn Clark, and she's probably one of the biggest draws in the WNBA. So the fact that you put her on that team and people are going to be wanting to watch her and this is not just the U.S., this is globally. She's the biggest draw. She's not the best player.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Not even close. That's Asia Wilson. You surrounded her with all the other greatest players. You got Asia Wilson on the team. You got a bunch of other people. Diana Taurasi's on the team. You got Rihanna Stewart. You got a bunch of other people. Diana Taurasi's on the team. So they're going to win the gold, regardless, I would think. But you use her for promo and marketing.
Starting point is 00:08:51 Absolutely. Okay, well, moving on. Maybe it's for the best because I heard Olympic Village can get a little freaky, which brings me to my final story. What? A new sexually transmitted fungus has been found in the U.S. for the first time, y'all. A report out this week revealed that a sexually transmitted ringworm has been found in New York City. I'm careful out there.
Starting point is 00:09:20 And the first case is a man in his 30s who developed a rash after reportedly having sex with men during trips to England and Greece. The CDC says cases of genital ringworm have been found all over the world but the infection is not fatal but dermatologists say it can cause permanent scarring so of course make sure you're protecting yourselves ringworm? yeah it sounds like an old person's disease that's what them old guys are gonna get ringworm but it's on your genitals though mm-hmm yeah I'm saying like, now you can catch it from sex.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Like, yo, you gotta be way of ringworm now. That is crazy. All right, well, thank you, Morgan. Thank you. That's Front Page News.
Starting point is 00:09:54 See y'all in a minute. All right, everybody else, get it off your chest. Call us up right now, 800-585-1051. Let us know how your week it was. I was trying to see
Starting point is 00:10:02 Bad Boys 4, but I waited too late to see it, and I couldn't get six tickets, because you know I got a big family. I got to bring all the kids. I couldn't get six tickets next to each other, so I got to see it this week. Is it kid appropriate? Is it kid appropriate? 17, and I think if you bring...
Starting point is 00:10:18 Yeah, I think so. I'm not sure. I don't think it's kid appropriate. I think my 11-year-old and my 10-year-old would be fine. It's rated R. No, it's not. It's PG-17 or something like that. I've I think my 11-year-old and my 10-year-old will be fine. It's rated R. No, it's not. It's PG-17 or something like that. I've never heard of PG-17. I thought so.
Starting point is 00:10:29 It's bad boys. Take them to see that. Yeah, it's bad boys. My 11-year-old and my 10-year-old will be all right. It says rated R. Oh, rated R? Yes, for strong violence. You know what these kids watch?
Starting point is 00:10:40 That's true. Please take them to go see that. They listen to the show. But yeah, I was going to take my 11-year-old and 10-year-old, but everything was so loud. But anyway, 800-585-1051. Get it off your chest. Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's a new day. This is your time to get it off your chest. Wake up. Whether you're mad or blessed. It's time to get up and get something. Call up now.
Starting point is 00:11:04 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on mad or blessed. It's time to get up and get something. Call up now. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, what's going on, DJ Envy? This is Toy Every Day. What's up, brother? Get it off your chest. Man, I want to just first say, just hilarious.
Starting point is 00:11:17 You are the best person for the job. The most well-rounded and just literally the best in every category for the job. You work so well with everybody in there. I thank you so much. I appreciate that. All right. And the main thing I wanted to get off my chest was, man, we had people calling in a few days ago
Starting point is 00:11:34 talking about why they voted for Trump, even though he was found guilty of all these charges. And that was so crazy to me because everybody was saying things like, one lady said that her family's voting for trump so what else can she do but i'm like okay your family's also probably making bad family eating choices and bad finally choices and you're gonna follow them aren't you you're just gonna just follow the pattern right you just get high blood pressure another person said trump was cool because he was on the tv show and he gave us this money and i
Starting point is 00:12:08 just like we concerned with fame and that money wasn't given to us for no charity people died it was a need of desperation trump just got to sign his name on that yeah like but the reality is he was president when all of that happened so you know he gets the credit for it and people remember that people will forget what you did they'll forget what you said but they'll never forget how you made them feel that that is true and only one actual person called with something political to say that i had to go search and look up because i'm actually doing history on research on who to vote for and on 2019 trump passed a bill for 250 million a year to go to black colleges, you know, historical black colleges. But like you said, he made it seem like he did this thing and that he's the one only giving out to him and stuff.
Starting point is 00:12:51 Like you said, though, Joe Biden has given out much more. And the guy also said that, you know, Joe Biden's a racist and that he passed all these bills and that the thing that Trump did was minor as far as what he did with the New York City and taking out the thing, but he only had minor power at that time. To give him more power is just going to amplify his racism. It just was crazy to hear all those people say all these reasons they would vote for Trump, and they never said anything
Starting point is 00:13:16 that actually would politically make sense. They didn't say, I don't like trans playing my sports. I don't like, you know, i'm against abortion they didn't say anything that was an actual substance of political reasons and it made me really start thinking charlamagne you right i'm really scared when it's time to vote well democrats suck at messaging and that's all i can tell you okay that's why people feel you know the way they feel about donald trump because whatever donald trump is saying or doing is getting through.
Starting point is 00:13:47 For whatever reason, it's not on the left. Hello, who's this? Yo, yo, you hear me? Yeah, we hear you. What's your name, brother? Oh, yo, yo, here's Discapaz, man. I'm from 757, where you from, man, where your college is, whatever. Virginia, 757, what's up? Hampton Roads area. Get it off your chest, brother.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Bro, I got to get off my chest for you because you talking about you want to bring your kids to Bad Boys. First off, it was a great movie. It was fire. It's the best one. It was the first one. But, man, there's some stuff in there, man.
Starting point is 00:14:15 If you don't want to explain to your kids what **** she is, you might not want to bring them. All right. Say no more movies, man. It's rated R for a reason. Say no more. Right. Right. Don't bring no more Right We had kids behind us
Starting point is 00:14:29 It was like six kids And they was that age and younger And man it was just crazy For that moment Tiffany Haddish said that statement So don't bring him bro Tiffany was in there Yeah she's in there
Starting point is 00:14:44 Don't tell me no more man Get it off your chest Oh, don't bring him, bro. Oh, Tiffany's in there? I didn't know Tiffany was in there. Yeah, she's in there. She's in there. Don't tell me no more, man. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to, Vin, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:15:00 This is your time to get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, man, what's up, man? It's King of All Black. King of All Black. What's up, brother? Yo, man, I'm calling to congratulate you. I love the show, man. I probably miss you every morning, man. Y'all are a good team. Thank you, brother.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Listen, I want to congratulate you, Charlemagne, first of all. A friend of mine showed me a YouTube video of your daughter's Sweet 16 when Chuck Hardy B came in. And all of them white people there, I know your daughter's getting a very good education. I want to apologize. I want to congratulate you, brother. You deserve it. You deserve brother. You deserve it. You deserve it.
Starting point is 00:15:46 You deserve it. Boy, you stupid. I thought your daughter was the only black person there. And I said, I can't. I said, man, congratulations, man. You've been in this game so long, you deserve it. Man, you stupid, man. Goodbye, King.
Starting point is 00:16:06 I love you, brother. You're a stupid young black people. Lord have mercy, boy. Hello, who's this? Hello, this is Tina from Columbia. Hey, Tina from Columbia. Peace, Tina. 803, what's happening?
Starting point is 00:16:21 Hey, hey, hey. I think the question of the day when we were talking about bun b should have been the idiots who thought that that um he was snitching those are the ones that should have been calling in um because i think the vast majority of people um feel that yeah they would have shot him i mean it's bun B did exactly what he was supposed to do. Yes, he did. Exactly. He shot him and then... And I think most of us feel that way.
Starting point is 00:16:50 I would have tortured him a little bit. But, yeah, you know, I think the other, the minority party, the people that think that this is snitching, those are the idiots who should have been calling in for this topic. Well, you know, you said you would have tortured him a little bit, but the torture is the fact that he's going to be in prison for the next 40 years. That's right. Oh, yeah, yeah. I would have got mine in too, though.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Damn. Tina, go have some breakfast, Tina. I don't disagree with you, but have some breakfast, man. Welcome to Violent on the Tongue this morning. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Now we have Jess with the mess coming up. I told you Adrian Brown was going to get beat up, yeah?
Starting point is 00:17:30 Damn it, man. Yes. We'll talk about it in a little bit. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilaria, Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 00:17:42 We are The Breakfast Club, and let's get to Jess with the mess. News is real, web. Jessica Robyn Moore. Jess don't do no lie. Don't do no lie. She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess. Worldwide mess.
Starting point is 00:17:58 On The Breakfast Club. She's a culture shift. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it off. Okay, so Bad Boys 4 is officially out. But Stephen A. Smith wants Will Smith to clear up things before he watches it. Chris Rock will never get over that. Ever.
Starting point is 00:18:20 I'm not saying he even has to apologize. I'm saying that while I watch him and Martin Lawrence promoting this movie, he has to sit down and talk to the black community. You can see all the white people around Will Smith all you want to. Black folks have loved and revered this man for decades. Everybody makes a mistake. This is not hatred. I love Will Smith still.
Starting point is 00:18:43 But you got to have a conversation as to why you did that i'm just saying a lot of folks ain't get over that a lot of folks find it hard to just go to the movies to watch you i'm one of those people and i never missed a will smith movie the box office says otherwise listen you don't need to go see it but i'm gonna see it this week are you crazy anything y'all it was like two years ago don't nobody gotta sit down and and yo like shut up go see it i like stephen a smith but relax yeah why do we talk like the black community is just one group of people yes like black people are not monolithic i totally disagree with stephen a smith in fact the only person that will smith would uh have to talk to
Starting point is 00:19:21 and explain why he did that would be to Chris Rock. He don't owe nobody else. There's so many people that didn't get over that. Like who? Chris and Tony? Chris and Tony ain't over it and I understand why. I get it. But that just shows you why people are into these celebrities' lives so much. That's between Will
Starting point is 00:19:42 and Chris and go see the movie. And by the way, Chris probably don't give a damn no more like that. You can't speak for Chris. By the way, I don't know how Chris feels about it. I don't think Chris seen the movie though. You never know. He's still a comic. It's like whatever. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:19:58 But the movie is Will Smith's first major film since he slapped Chris at the Oscars in 2022. And the movie bought a $56 million opening weekend at the domestic box office. The number surpassed the expected $40-50 million projection. It was the biggest opening weekend for a rated R film since the release of Oppenheimer last summer. I didn't see that, but I heard that was really, really good.
Starting point is 00:20:23 It's also his uh 18th number one opening as lead and it's will smith's sixth highest domestic opening in his career like this this is crazy yeah they're gonna do a five quickly they have to now um it's also uh well the film also had major success overseas which contributed contributed to the movie making $104.6 million internationally. And the movie took $100 million to make the budget. So it already exceeded the budget. Everybody made the money back. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:57 And just to open a weekend. Hey, that's what's up, y'all. Congratulations to Will and Marsha. I love that. I love that. I'm just happy that there's movies in the movie theaters again Because I'm the type of person I like going to the movie theaters

Well, Juneteenth is not until next Wednesday. So why are they having this so early? Because they don't want all black people to be late. So they're just telling everybody.

Alright, now when we come back, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett will be joining us. We're going to kick it with her next. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:29:37 The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. That's right. She's a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Texas's 30th District, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. Welcome.
Starting point is 00:29:55 Hey, y'all. First of all, I don't like that this paper says that she's the owner of Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Body. That's the only thing she's ever done in her whole life. It is not the only thing. That's for sure.ch's body. That's the only thing she's ever done in her whole life. Like, what do you mean? It is not the only thing. There's a lot of things. That's for sure. That's right.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Yeah, but you know what? I appreciate black Twitter, so let's give it up for black Twitter because we have every genre of song from country to gospel to trap music. We got it all. In fact, there's a really good blues version as well. But it's amazing when
Starting point is 00:30:26 you think about politics i never thought that i would be in a space where number one i would have to clap back on somebody like that like in a committee but number two that people would actually pick it up and start educating people through song so educating people yeah they educating them about you know maga and marge and all them. So I appreciate it for what it is. But you're right. I'm so much more than that. And I appreciate that way before B6 came around, you understood the fights that I was waging for everyday people. Let's break down for people that don't understand what happened that day because we only seen clips.
Starting point is 00:31:00 So what happened that day in front of Congress? So what happened? Break down everything that was going on. Okay. So imagine that y'all skip out on work because that's what the republicans did they decided to skip out on work so we were supposed to have a hearing about our attorney general merrick garland and they basically want to lock him up but instead what they did is they came to new york and they sat with trump and coddled him while he was in trial trying to make sure he did not get locked up. So they then said,
Starting point is 00:31:26 you know what? Since we decided we was going to skip work, we're going to do our work at 8 PM. So we Democrats have been on the Hill all day. They come back. We go into a hearing so that they could hold them in consent. We get in a hearing and Marjorie Taylor green, the gentle lady from Georgia starts talking about judge Mershon.
Starting point is 00:31:43 And I was like, girl, do you know why we're here because like literally like i'm already feeling away because i've been there all day while y'all was playing up in new york like go talk in front of those cameras about judge mershon say what you got to say or whatever because they were trying to get around the gag order but i'm like we here to talk about this say whatever you want to say about the attorney general and so she then came at me was like well do you know why we're here and she decided she wanted to talk about this say whatever you want to say about the attorney general and so she then came
Starting point is 00:32:05 at me was like well do you know why we're here and she decided she wanted to talk about my eyelashes and i was like girl you haven't like looked at yourself but i didn't get up i didn't you know immediately say anything i tried to follow the rules they let that slide daughter i was kind of upset about that because that was the thing they did let it slide and it was against the rules so we have this rule talking about like personalities you're not allowed to engage in personalities basically i can't talk noise and why she make it seem like your eyelashes so long like you got 25 m's or something wait a minute i'm mad that you know the lengths he wears them on the weekends i got four daughters a wife you know what even if i got
Starting point is 00:32:43 it don't matter it don't matter. It don't matter. Like, you're doing the most. And honestly, you only came for me because I'm a black woman. Because there are white women. In fact, one of my white female colleagues came up to me and was like, I may need to bleach my hair, but I'm not getting rid of my lashes. And so she was like, you know Marge would never say anything to me about my lashes. Because she does. She wears lashes or whatever.
Starting point is 00:33:04 So I'm just like, girl. And my initial retort, what i wanted to say is you may still have your husband if you wore some lashes but nevertheless but i but i did not do that i did not do that and aoc jumped in almost immediately and aoc was like yo this is against the rules but comer decided i'ma let it slide and of course it to me is like what we always experience as black women. It's like, you know what? Somebody punched you, but that's okay. You'll be all right, girl. Sit there and take it.
Starting point is 00:33:31 But here's the deal. We on the same level and I'm not going to sit there. And so I wanted to exemplify, number one, if this is how you're going to conduct these hearings, I just want you to know that it's going to be some real smoke coming from our side. So when did you write Beach Blonde, Bad Built, Butch Body? Likech body like was that something you had alliteration ready i love alliteration was that something you had to cut because that was it was it was amazing it wasn't so when comber decided that he was gonna rule against me i literally looked over at her because she sits on the same row as me and from head to toe he was like is what i did and i was like and i literally
Starting point is 00:34:03 from head to toe so my granny used to talk about was like, and I literally from head to toe. So my granny used to talk about people being bad built. So that was an ode to my granny. That was something she used to say. The thing I loved about it, and you said it earlier about how if y'all keep coming at us like this, there's going to be smoke from this side. There should always be smoke from this side because everybody acts like what they do is so normal to the point that it's become normalized. Yeah. When you did that, it's like finally somebody, you know, reacting the way they should react to. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Yeah. No, you're right. I mean, I think that we've seen the devolution of politics because people aren't pushing back and saying this is not what we do. Right. And it's interesting because once I push back, there was all of this like attention on me. Right. It's like, well, you were wrong. I mean, what did Michelle Obama say? It was all this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Right. And it's like, no, like that's I don't think that that's what the former first lady meant is for me to sit there and just have you talk to me crazy. And we're on the same level and we're in a business setting. And so I'm like, that's not how i would think that she would want me to act but nevertheless i know my district and how is it i'm gonna say that i'm gonna fight for you and i can't fight for myself so i'm not going to sit here and allow the likes of a marjorie taylor green to sit there and clown me but i did try to go through the process which is something that she ignored she's always ignored the rules i at least was trying to follow the rules but once they failed i still never got outside of the rules but it's about doing what they are trying to do
Starting point is 00:35:32 and doing it better and doing it right and that's exactly what i did and i think that the democrats have all the intellect on our side so we can always do it better and smarter it's a matter of are we going to how did you feel about when you see people pulling up to marjorie green at the airport oh that was that was amazing because that's gonna happen all the time now that was amazing so when you saw that video yeah no no no that took me out it was funny because i was laid in bed and the person that sent me the video was actually amanda so amanda seals yeah so she sent me the video and she's like i'm sure this will make you smile and i was like the only thing i don't like about that though is i don't want them to encourage to do that to y'all
Starting point is 00:36:09 because they're a little they're gonna be different no no no no but you know what they always are a little different with us i mean i get death threats right like that's not what it should be to me in politics like i've not done anything that should warrant anybody trying to take my life ever and so they are the radicals that are always pushing the envelope so to speak right like these the ones that went into the capital and trying to tear it apart so like they about that life anyway right like you're talking about neo-nazis you're talking about the proud boys like i'm the type of person that they gonna come from my neck no matter what um and so we do have to have heightened security consistently.
Starting point is 00:36:46 And when you look at the threats overall against politicians, they have consistently gone up and up and up. The thing that Marjorie should be lucky to have is that black people may play in your face, but like legitimately, like as far as harming you, they're not going to try to do that. Like they're not gonna try to do that like they're not and that black woman was absolutely right because you know marjorie want to talk like big and bad and comedians just like oh did i hurt your feelings and all of that but she ain't have nothing to say when that black woman came through the airport and was like oh so you ain't like that huh that's right yeah you know with the first lady it's interesting right because the Because the phrase, when they go low, we go high. I feel like that applied to the time that she was in.
Starting point is 00:37:29 2024 and probably beyond is a totally different time. It is a different time. But I also want people to evaluate the lens in which she was working from. She was the only black first lady, right? Like this is she's on a level up here. And what was happening is you had all of these trolls that were online and they were saying all kinds of things they were calling her to all types of animals they were talking about her appearance they were doing all the things that
Starting point is 00:37:53 racist people do right it's trying to tear her down physically because they could not match her intellectually whatsoever but what does it look like if the first lady is literally lowering herself to respond to somebody that like is hiding behind a keyboard and got five followers like that is literally going low. You are lower than her. But what we're talking about in this scenario, like which other first ladies were trying to come at her and talk about her. That's not what that was. But literally, we're on the same level. We have the same space that we occupy so this isn't
Starting point is 00:38:27 about going low to low but as simone sanders says it's about going toe to toe all right we got more with jasmine crockett when we come back to don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj envy jess hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we're still kicking it with congresswoman jasmine crockett i got a question now what is your thoughts on donald trump's conviction and is that gonna does that help or does that make it worse you can say whatever you want to say listen i guess it made it worse since you know those broke people decided that they was gonna get a last five dollars and donate to him and crash uh his website to the extent that he got a bunch more money just to pay for his appeals process not to go into the election I think that for a lot of us who have seen him playing in our face and having the audacity to say I'm gonna play in your face and I'm gonna get away with it which is
Starting point is 00:39:16 what he's always said to us even before he ever got caught up I think that it was a good moment for white privilege to recognize that like you can get the smoke too in this country but i also think that it's a really sad moment in our country because we really are only a two-party system uh for those that don't know a third party person ain't gonna win presidency at least not this term right like you're not even gonna get on all of the ballots to be able to get like there's a lot of reasons so they're not gonna win so it's between joe and it's between trump and the fact that we have someone who has 34 felony counts worth of convictions and literally there's places eric swalwell just brought this up in committee he's like it's a whole list of countries you can't even go to so how are you going to be the leader of the
Starting point is 00:40:00 free world and you're not even allowed to step foot in certain countries because you're a convicted felon. He can't go to Toronto. He went through a whole list of places. Can't go to Japan. A ton of places. What do they amend to where, I don't know, I want to say in the future, but how do you make it to where that can't happen, where you can't have all of those
Starting point is 00:40:20 convictions and still be president? That's legislation. I mean, I think that our framers never contemplated that, right? Because he can't be president yeah that's that's legislation i mean i think that our framers never contemplated that right because he can't be a city councilman right he can't be a mayor he can't sit on a school board he can't do state he can't be a police officer but he can be the president correct so i i just don't think that our framers really contemplated some of this it's just like we have a bunch of january sixers that are running for congress right now like because the only thing you can run for and have convictions on your record is to get six figures from the federal government that's crazy that is the only thing that you can do and you
Starting point is 00:40:54 know i think that trump could have an opportunity i think that he really is again playing in our face like oh yeah black people they gonna feel me because i got convictions too bro it's completely different number one number two i think that you could have a real conversation like i've worked on ban the box type of legislation that would at least allow people to get an opportunity to get in do that interview like what legislation do you want to pass based upon the experience that you're saying that you had personally there is legislation that could help people, especially when we start talking about those that have a record. So many people aren't able to go to college because of their record. They're not able to, well, they can't get the funding.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Let me say that. They aren't able to get certain housing because they have a record. They aren't able to qualify for so many jobs because they have a record. And we're talking about hourly jobs. So I think that there is a good opportunity but maga isn't really about their life they're not about critical thinking they're not about providing solutions for other people they just don't want their cult leader to have to deal with a life of policies that have forever consistently held black and brown communities
Starting point is 00:41:59 down you know that narrative that black people black men in particular are supporting trump because he's a criminal you know that came from the right like that wasn't that narrative that black people, black men in particular, are supporting Trump because he's a criminal. You know, that came from the right. Like, that wasn't a narrative that started in our communities in any way, shape, or form. The right wing media started that narrative. Trump started that narrative. And now you have a few people adopting it. And I don't understand why.
Starting point is 00:42:17 Yeah, no, I absolutely don't believe it. And maybe for those that have never interacted with us, it probably is easy for them to believe or for them to parrot. But I talked to real people now. Will I say that there are some people that are turned off and they're saying, I don't want to vote at all. I will absolutely say that I run into that where people are like, yo, I just don't really feel like either party is doing anything for me.
Starting point is 00:42:41 So what's the point, right? I do run into that type of conversation, but I don't run into a conversation where people like oh yeah so i'm just gonna go out and vote for trump like i see it online a little bit but i feel like we don't know what's real and what's not because we know that china as well as russia have consistently tried to interfere with our elections by doing so much online so i don't know how many of these accounts are real or not but like i have a majority black district when i go home i'm not dealing with it they just like i'm not really sure that i really want to vote that much people don't understand when you say i'm not feeling any of this right now it doesn't mean hey i'm leaving from the democratic party to go correct to vote for donald trump it's like i'm i'm part of the exhausting
Starting point is 00:43:23 majority exactly that yeah that is a problem though, right? Because if people are not voting for the Democrat side, then you allow more people to vote Republican. So I was going to ask. Oh, they may not vote at all. That could be a problem. Yeah, but when we're talking about a numbers game, if we decide to stay at home,
Starting point is 00:43:38 like I'm headed to Detroit here in a second, I got to get to Detroit. I got to make sure that I'm talking to people because one of the things I think we run into is like, we want to beat up on people and be like, yo, you got to go vote because people die, which is true, right? Like I feel that I get it, right?
Starting point is 00:43:53 But if you didn't see your mother, your father, your grandparents like marching, like you're not necessarily so connected to that, right? And it's a matter of informing people, like what does voting get me? What do I get out of this, right? And's a matter of informing people like what does voting get me what do i get out of this right and so i like to tell people like i know that they try to blame the president for everything that's bad in their lives and usually don't really give them credit for anything that's good in their lives but it's not just the president you know the fact is right
Starting point is 00:44:20 now house democrats are some of the most popular people in politics right now like it's looking to the house is looking to the senate it takes all of us because the president can't really do much by himself he just did an executive order as it relates to the border and immigration and so now people are like well that's too late or that ain't enough you're right it takes legislation and that's what he tried to do they have legislation that was ready to go that he was going to sign into law, but he can't do it all on his own. And so chances are there will potentially be litigation as it relates to the executive order. But at least the president can say, I tried because Trump is the one that said, hey, Republicans, follow me. I'm your leader. Do not allow this legislation to go forward, even though they had worked collaboratively in the
Starting point is 00:45:06 way the government is supposed to work so i just want to say that listen people need to recognize their power and they need to start showing up and telling people listen you work for me because that's what it is i serve at the pleasure of the people and you need to start telling people what it is that you want and what it is that you need and when they don't give it to you vote them out like that's just it's very simple but i don't think that people really understand what all we can do like we talked about snap benefits last time i was here we had a whole like 13 hour markup where the republicans are like we're not gonna do this so i made it clear i was like you know that like more of rural america uses snap benefits than urban america so i was like i do want to
Starting point is 00:45:45 be clear that i'm fighting for my constituents but i'm also fighting for yours and so many of these republicans talked about well yeah i was raised on snap so you forgot or you just don't care like i i don't understand what's going on but like when people are talking about the cost of food being so high part of that we can control part of that we can do something about but we definitely can do something about making sure that we put a few more dollars in your pocket or the child tax credit. Like people got, you know, an extra three hundred dollars a child. They didn't really know why they were getting that. They didn't know where it came from.
Starting point is 00:46:17 But that was this administration that was saying, hey, we're going to give you this child tax credit. It cut African-American child poverty into half right but then the republicans ended up in control of the house and they like yeah so we not about that life but their constituents in rural america needed it too so we did a little compromise of something and there's a little something that's coming down the pipe but it's not enough right so like we have to let people know you actually received extra money and that was this administration understanding that it was hard you have to let people know that because you know people are still stuck on the stimulus checks and they still they are still
Starting point is 00:46:53 stuck on the stemmies and everybody got arrested for ppp that's true all right we're still kicking in with jasmine crockett so don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj envy jess, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. Charlamagne? Why are you the only person in the Democratic Party who seems to understand that the language of politics is dead? I don't know that I'm the only person.
Starting point is 00:47:18 You message very well, and you message to where people can understand. One of my little mentees, I don't want to say little. She's a grown woman, but she's not quite 30 yet but she saw you in georgia last week oh yeah yeah and she literally sent me a video of you talking because you said to the people you should go out there and support this administration this administration has done a lot i think you told them go google what they've done you probably don't know what they've done because they've done so much yeah and she was like i need jasmine to tell me, you know, what exactly they did. But I'm saying I'm saying all that to say they're listening to you and want to hear what you have to say.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Yeah. You message very well. I think that I think it's really my legal training. Right. Like I would walk into juries all over. And when you walk in and you're talking to a jury, you're talking to everyday people. That's right. But I have legal principles that i have to translate and so i had to know like what the law was but i had to i couldn't
Starting point is 00:48:10 talk to you in legalese i had to be able to translate for you and be so so one of my best friends from law school and in law school we have this dictionary called the black's law dictionary and so when we were in law school he'd'd be like, yo, I don't understand what happened in class. I need you to give me the Black's Law version. And so I'd be like, so when your cousin pookie. So I would break it down. Right. But I think that we do get caught up on the language.
Starting point is 00:48:41 And the reality is that most everyday people don't live in our bubble. So we have to make sure that we're communicating in a way that they understand. And we're doing the work, but we also need to do some media training. I just talked about that. I'm like, we need everybody to do media training. I haven't had any, but because I have been consistently in front of audiences for years. I think that I know how to maneuver a little bit. But you never know when like the next tornado or whatever is coming through your community and you have to get in front of a camera.
Starting point is 00:49:15 And you need to be able to communicate with the people that you serve and make them understand what you're saying in a very digestible and very quick way. We don't talk in soundbites either like democrats believe in giving you the the entire project 2025 but like they they want to give you like a full thesis because we do put a lot of thought into stuff it's why we don't do well on messaging on immigration immigration has so many layers and it's so complicated and we want to tell everybody and it's like we can't we can't do that like let's just go ahead and keep this simple it's there's nothing simple about immigration nothing at all but the simple messaging is winning even if it's not true and that's the other thing republicans will lie they will lie just to put something out there and democrats are
Starting point is 00:49:59 like trying to prove why they're lying and it's like we ain't got time for it just slap them down i'll just listen to people like you said like i i've repeated things that i've heard and seen activists in chicago talking about in regards to you know the border what i've heard and seen people here in new york talking about when it comes to you know uh immigration so it's like i'm repeating what the people are saying yeah you can't chalk that up as MAGA messaging. No, no, no, you can't. And we have to listen. Like, even if people don't understand, like why this or that is happening, we can't make people feel uncomfortable with talking to us.
Starting point is 00:50:38 We have to listen to them and say we understand. And then we have to do our best to educate them on what it is that we can and what we can't do because some people think that we can fix it all and we can't or they think they don't realize that like nothing's getting fixed because the republicans control the house democrats kind of control the senate and then we have the president like it takes an entire team and that's the message that i'm sending everybody is like don't just worry about the top you need to worry about all the way down to the state house right now in the state of Texas. They're like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:51:08 We want to bring about the death penalty for women that seek abortions. They literally want you to choose death or death. That is insane. So the president of the United States, unless he has a democratic house and Senate, he can't fix what the state of Texas is doing. So you absolutely have to pay attention to who also is on the state level that you're voting for. So I just want people, when I said Google, I was trying to make sure that people understand that they also have an obligation. Right?
Starting point is 00:51:35 Like, we have to do our part. We have to educate. We have to communicate. It costs a lot of money for us to communicate. You've got to spend millions and millions of dollars to get on cable tv to get on broadcast tv to get on radio you have to do a lot to communicate to people to send mail you don't have to do as much to do it on social media but it takes a lot but i also want people to start understanding that they also have an obligation this is your vote if i'm out there telling you to vote for me i'm not gonna
Starting point is 00:52:01 tell you the bad stuff about me i'm gonna gonna sell myself to you right but just like when you go buy a car it's like you know what that car is good and this and that and whatever this the car salesman gonna tell you everything amazing that's right but you gotta do your research and you gotta find out where this car lasts and that kind of stuff so i just also want to encourage people to just jump on google and do a little bit of research as well is it true after the b6 comments happened the vice president called you and just laughed and hung up the phone she did not call and laugh but i i will tell you that uh i love our vice president and she is very protective specifically in my opinion i mean she may be protective of some other people but of us as black women so
Starting point is 00:52:47 she does call to check she will have us come over to her residence and want to sit down and have a very real conversation about our challenges because she also experiences a lot of this so I feel like we have
Starting point is 00:53:03 an amazing sister circle with the vice president because no matter how big she is she always takes the time and i'm sitting there like you're you're checking on me like because i know how they come for her throat you know i'm waiting for her to have her own clapbacks because we saw her in those sin hearings back in the day we know that's in her if you ever sat down with the vp you know that's in her no the vp she's she's got it and obviously she was a trial lawyer as well and she's black woman so like she's got it i i do want people to understand that when it comes to the vice presidential role it is a supporting cast member and i think that because she is the first of her
Starting point is 00:53:41 kind and because we there were people that went out and said. I'm voting because they wanted to vote for her. There were a lot of people that did that. So I think that people want more of her. Than like the actual role. Allows for or calls for. At times. When I in fact.
Starting point is 00:54:00 When I was in Atlanta. One of the things I said. Most people can't even name five other vice presidents. They don't know other vice presidents. Like, they can't. They don't know other vice presidents because it's always been a supporting cast member. And I think that unfortunately, just like almost everything in black folks' lives
Starting point is 00:54:16 and definitely in black women's lives, so much more is expected of us. People like you give me hope in the future of the Democratic Party. What's the website for the Bleach Blonde? Oh, yes. The clapback collection dot com. Yes. The clapback collection dot com. That's right.

News is real. News is real. Worldwide jets, worldwide matches. On The Breakfast Club. She's a culture shift.
Starting point is 00:55:12 She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it off. So Ken Porter's dad, Jake, spoke to Rolling Stones recently and shared his thoughts about the video of Diddy assaulting Cassie. He said he was disgusted And he added, I wouldn't treat my enemy like that. It was despicable. I couldn't believe it. I was in Vietnam and I wouldn't do that to my enemy. He probably wasn't on the front lines. Then he was probably going to back.
Starting point is 00:55:33 But Jake answered and he also answered no. When they asked him if he had ever seen Combs physically abuse his daughter, Kim, during their marriage. And he added that anything that he had seen was never to that extent, but it made him wonder. He said that Kim loved Diddy, but couldn't live with him in the same home. He said, in quotes, I think he was a very jealous person. They both loved each other. Kim's love was legitimate.
Starting point is 00:56:03 Puffy's love, I don't know what he calls love. You know what I mean? I really don't think he has any idea what love is. He also said he was shocked by Diddy's behavior in the video and images that it surprised a lot of people. And he also sent his love to Cassie and expressed that now his only concern is the kids, his grandchildren. So that came out of that I've seen a lot of people was just like to that extent so he knew something was going on but like he said he never seen combs like physically hit her but like
Starting point is 00:56:36 pride is barking at her verbally arguing that arguing you know something like that but um yeah yeah you ain't gonna let nobody yell at your daughter in front of you neither you might you know you you'll stay out the way if it's a argument a husband and wife argument right like all right now watch your mouth don't raise your mouth now right right voice boy well not husband wife they wouldn't they weren't married right oh you know what i mean yeah no watch your mouth now right i'm surprised he didn't give the real old man answer you ever seen um him do anything like that kim he? He's still alive, ain't he? He's still alive, ain't he?
Starting point is 00:57:08 Yep, that's the black father for sure. Howard University revokes Diddy's honorary degree. So the Board of Trustees unanimously voted to revoke Diddy's Doctorate of Humanities honorary degree. The honorary degree was given to him in 2014. The Board also agreed to return Diddy's 1 million donations to the school and cancel his pledge to donate an additional million at uh and and end the scholarship uh program in his name the university released a statement saying mr combs behavior is captured in a recently released video is so fundamentally incompatible with howard university's core values and beliefs that he is deemed no longer worthy to to hold the institution's highest
Starting point is 00:57:52 honor they also shared that his name will be removed from all the documents listings honorary degree recipients of howard university and he'll lose all honors and privileges associated with the degree now i know he owed him one million million because he said he was going to donate and never did, but you said he gave them another million. Yeah, before the additional one that he said that he was going to give that he didn't give. He gave a million, and they returned it. I understand revoking the degree. I wouldn't give the money back, though, because that money goes to kids who actually need it, right?
Starting point is 00:58:22 That goes to scholarships and things of that nature. I wouldn't give the money back. Yeah, but how do you take his, how do you take that degree back? You know what I mean? Because the reason, you take it right back. But the reason he got the degree
Starting point is 00:58:32 was the things that he did for Howard. That, regardless of who he is as a person and how nasty that video is, he still did a lot for students at Howard University, correct? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:42 I still, I don't want him to have an honorary degree. I don't want him to be a rep as an alumni of our institution. I don't even want him, like? I don't want him to have an honorary degree. I don't want him to be a rep as an alumni of our institution. They don't even want him associated with the school. It goes against the core beliefs
Starting point is 00:58:51 and the values. He went there for two years though, didn't he? It's an honorary degree. He did go there. He went to that college. For classes, yes. He went there for two years. Then he went to Howard. He just didn't graduate. He didn't graduate. That's what I said. He didn't graduate. He went there for two years. Then he went to Howard. He just didn't graduate. He didn't graduate.
Starting point is 00:59:06 He didn't graduate. That's what I said. Oh, he didn't graduate. He didn't graduate. So he went there in his younger years. So what are you trying to say? He went there when he was in college, yeah. So what are you saying?
Starting point is 00:59:12 Oh, like back in the day. What you saying? What did that got to do with it? I'm just asking. How do you just give the money back when what he's done was- You said the degree. Yeah, the degree. Well, he paid for the degree.
Starting point is 00:59:23 That's what I said. What are you saying this morning it's an honorary degree they gave me i understand take it back because of but they gave him that degree because of all the help that he gave how would you understand and want to take it back i wouldn't give the money back though the money should go to this the money should stay with the students you take the degree you gotta tell you no you don't yes you do no you don't yeah well that's a difference in opinion that's what the people in the comments were arguing back and forth. Like, no, he don't need to get his money back.
Starting point is 00:59:47 Because that helps students. It does help the students, yeah. No, if you're going to take his honorary degree, then. But it's the thing. Would they have taken his degree if he did graduate and actually earn it? Huh? You can't take that degree. He earned that degree.
Starting point is 01:00:02 You can't take that one. That's why you buy a degree. That's the point. You can't take that one. He earned that degree. You can't take that one. That's why everyone used to buy your degree. That's the point. You can't take that one back. So, all right. Now, moving on. Ryan Garcia arrested for vandalism in Beverly Hills. He was detained in California on Saturday for this.
Starting point is 01:00:15 Professional boxer Ryan Garcia is free tonight after being arrested late this afternoon for felony vandalism at the Waldorf Astoria in Beverly Hills. Beverly Hills police say Garcia caused $15,000 worth of damage to hotel property. What the 25-year-old fighter actually broke is still unclear. After being booked, ESPN reporting the fighter complained of a medical issue and was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. His attorney says the boxer may also be charged with public intoxication. Garcia is now free with no court date having been set yeah any damage over 400 can be um considered a felony in california so
Starting point is 01:00:54 uh it's crazy how they can't tell us what he what he broke or anything but um his attorney darren chavez uh issued a statement to ESPN Saturday night and said Ryan has been open about his struggles with mental health over the past few years and at this time he is dealing with an immense emotional burden the support and understanding from fans and the public are crucial as he navigates through
Starting point is 01:01:17 these personal challenges we are working diligently to provide Ryan with the resources he needs and then he recently received devastating news about his mother's health that may have led to these events. Yeah, even though he won his last fight, you know, and I know that they said he was
Starting point is 01:01:34 playing leading up to the fight. There's clearly something going on. I mean, they took him away in handcuffs and he had a helmet on, y'all. It was a motorcycle helmet, but it was still a helmet. How you know he didn't pull up in a motorcycle what are you trying to talk about his room and why wouldn't the police take the helmet off his helmet off him while they put him in a handcuff everybody be trying to be funny man because there's no reason for this man to be in handcuffs
Starting point is 01:01:55 and wearing a motorcycle helmet unless they thought he was going to bang his head against something when he got into the police car well that could be very well that could be true too that is right you don't know but let's just keep him in the prayers that's just what it is and that is you just put a mess for the second hour you should keep him in the prayers not yours no just whoever want to pray for him yeah okay that's it jesus all right who you giving your donkey to man man four after the hour uh we need a young person named christy all right christyy Turman from Florida to come to the front of the congregation. We would like to have a word with her. Did you know that you can legally steal a car?
Starting point is 01:02:31 We'll discuss. All right. We'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Wake up. Wake up. You're locked into the Breakfast Club.

The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida, and today is no exception. In fact, today is so nuts, I'm still trying to figure out the why.
Starting point is 01:03:36 See, Christy woke up and decided today is the day she wanted to steal a car. Not just steal a car. She wanted to steal a car from an actual dealership. Her reasoning for wanting to steal a car from an actual dealership was so she could do it legally. I can't make this kind of stuff up. Let's go to News Channel 8 for the report, please. And deputies responded to a call from a female stating that she was attempting to steal a vehicle from the dealership parking lot and wanted the police to know so she could do it legally. Take a listen to the 911 call.
Starting point is 01:04:05 Because I'm trying to steal a car that's not legally mine. So y'all got to come make a report. I'm reporting this. Deputies arrived on scene and observed 37-year-old Christy Lee Turman exiting the driver's side of the stolen Corolla. According to Turman, she was being trained in a game of black ops to steal a car but called 911 in an attempt to make her carjacking legal. Turman was arrested and charged with trespassing.
Starting point is 01:04:31 Her history includes a variety of charges such as petty theft, robbery, and aggravated battery. I still don't know what the hell is going on here. Steal the car from the dealership so she could do it legally? There is no such thing. Baby, where did you think you could steal a car legally where you learn that from youtube you heard the phone call christy told deputy she was being trained in a game of black ops to steal a car but called authorities to make her carjacking legal i'm concerned that deputies did not find any drugs okay you know when you hear a story like this you know
Starting point is 01:05:05 you waiting to hear that the person was on drugs i had some type of mental issues none of that okay none of that here this is just pure uncut florida all right because i'm trying to steal a car that's not legally mine so y'all better come make a report i'm reporting this i don't even know what that means all right i literally did some research and And by research, I mean, I had my folks ask ChatGPT. And ChatGPT said, it's not possible to legally steal a car. Just in case you needed to know. All right. It said, stealing a car is a criminal act and is punishable by law.
Starting point is 01:05:35 If you are interested in acquiring a car, you should consider legal methods such as, one, purchasing, buying a car from a dealership or a private seller. Two, leasing, leasing a car from a dealership, which allows you to use the car for a set period while making monthly payments. Three, renting, renting a car for short-term use from a rental agency. And four, financing, getting a loan from a bank or financial institution to buy a car. If you have any questions about these processes or need advice on acquiring a car legally, feel free to ask. That's what chat gpt told us okay the moral of the story is there is no legal way to steal a car this young lady said she was being trained in a game of black ops i didn't even know they steal cars in black ops i
Starting point is 01:06:15 thought that was grand theft auto okay this is like getting caught with kilos of cocaine and saying you was being trained in a game of narcos rise of the cartel look man i don't know what else to tell y'all okay but there is no legal way to steal a car and christy was arrested and is facing trespassing charges and what bothers me the most about this is i took the time to google and do chat gpt just to make sure i wasn't missing something because hey christy may know something that we don't know but guess what i I'm mad at myself now Because I knew better My spirit, the spiritual being that I am 100% knew that there was no legal way to steal a car

Starting point is 01:14:24 And I always tell whoever's with me, like, listen, if I don't say their name first, then I need you to be like, hey, whatever. So I'll be like, hey, this is my friend such and such. And then they shake their head, and then they say their name. Then I make sure I say the name after that. Then I can remember. I do the same thing. I am the same way, Angie.
Starting point is 01:14:41 Gotcha. Same thing. Don't that work? Yeah. But I want to ask charlemagne something like the guy mike does he look like he was born in the 1900s oh yeah he was definitely born in the 1900s he was all born in the 1900s absolutely so you know good and where that man's name was not spelled with no y we spelling i'm like m-i-k-e nope charlemagne thought his name was tony so he
Starting point is 01:15:03 didn't know if he was gonna put t-o-N-I or T-O-N-Y. By the way, Tony is the same thing. It's spelled with an I or a Y. Usually for women, it's spelled with an I. I think he thought that man's name was Tony. That's right. I don't assume nothing no more because when you be out here at these book signings and people be telling you their name, literally, my name's Tasha. And I be like, T-A-S-H-A.

Starting point is 01:25:00 Zeus Teases, the new podcast. It dropped finally. The official trailer to tease their newest project is called The Aunt T Podcast. Now, remember,
Starting point is 01:25:10 I don't know if that was one of y'all or what, but remember, you know, we got Tokyo Tony, who is Black Chyna's mom. Tia Kemp,
Starting point is 01:25:18 that's, you know, Rick Rosby's mother. And then Carlisa Saffold as Blueface's mom. I don't know if it was y'all it was somebody else that was like date me the show they finally got it this is gonna be their podcast and it's visual you can watch it or listen to it it's gonna go crazy um and we have a little snippet
Starting point is 01:25:34 of their trailer who do we have today Hold on now. Oh, God. I'm going to reach over this table and I'm going to knock this shit in here. I sure do. Let's rock this shit. Y'all. Y'all. Y'all got to get off the internet. Don't say that to me. Stop this shit.
Starting point is 01:25:55 Get big, man. Y'all. Let's not play no games. What the? Go into our car. Shut up. Shut up. I might slap the fuck out of you. I wonder why they positioning it as a podcast and not just a talk show.
Starting point is 01:26:12 Because you can listen to it as well. There's a lot of people that ain't going to pay for Zeus just to watch it. I mean, so they got the podcast popping in. It's good to see LaMel going into other lanes, too. Like, you got the podcast popping off. But, yo, some of the guests they had on there, they had Big there they had akbar v um who's staying some drama they had uh what's that guy named the crazy guy he remind me of kanye west he got uh antonio brown ab maybe yeah he on there um that's why i said it's your position it as a talk show like mama that's what it is that's exactly what it's positioned
Starting point is 01:26:45 as is just that it's also a podcast as well but yeah they're presenting it as a podcast but it's gonna be a visual show too yo it's gonna be crazy i'm at i might have to go ahead and watch that like i don't know i might uh pay that little subscription i don't know i don't know yet you're already a platinum zeus member no i'm not my little sister is and i use her account for johnson's cabaret and so are you because you use my account that is not true yes you did i don't i use it because y'all came over talking about you gotta watch this and you gotta watch that and you did watch it and you liked it and he still watches it still watching so in denial yeah i know oh my gosh anyway speaking of shows george lopez leaves stage. He had a comedy show at Eagle Mountain Casino Friday night.
Starting point is 01:27:28 And during his set, fans kept shouting things out, and it clearly annoyed him. The things that they were shouting out aren't clear, but one fan reportedly shouted and asked if he could buy George a drink, if she could buy him a drink during his set. It doesn't seem like they were really heckling him, but they also wouldn't stop talking. And after asking him three times, George Lopez just dropped the mic, walked off set. The casino released this statement, but listen to the show.
Starting point is 01:27:54 Like, listen, you can barely make out what they're saying, but this is a little snippet of whack. I can get a prescription. I seem like an asshole. I'm not serious. I seem like an asshole. I'm the one working.
Starting point is 01:28:08 Come on, please. Just watch the show. That's all you have to do. Bring it. I don't want to. I don't want to. Just relax, man. Just relax.
Starting point is 01:28:16 Come on, man. Let's go. Relax. Yeah, he was done after that. Now, I DJ a lot of comedy shows, and usually that happens when the comedian is trash or they're not feeling the comedian that night. George Lopez ain't trash, though.
Starting point is 01:28:32 Nah, but maybe they just wasn't feeling him that night. He's not trash. Now, however, if you watch the whole video, it's online everywhere, y'all can see it. It's a dragged out joke. Like, it takes a little bit long to get to the punchline or whatever. Because it's like something, something. That's number one.
Starting point is 01:28:49 Something, something. That's number two. And then in the crowd, like, all right, what's number three? Like they. It depends on the crowd. It's a long, drawn out. Yeah. Certain comedians work for certain crowds.
Starting point is 01:28:58 And I see comedians go to, you know, different rooms and then they just trash out. Yeah. But the casino, they released a statement he said tonight george lopez let down his fans and sold out audience by walking out and then his show 30 minutes early george hired his own private security that could have easily escorted any hecklers out we had a pre-show meeting to have a plan in place for hecklers he could have provided us an opportunity to allow our security and team to escort hecklers out since his own private security did not well we don't know how long the heckling was happening so maybe it was happening
Starting point is 01:29:29 too long for george because uh the venue should immediately get that under get that well yeah but he said the venue got his own he didn't want to the venue didn't want their security he got his own security he didn't want the venue security he had his own security and they took too long to step in see i'll be thinking your own security is for you. Meaning like if somebody personally... No, they said they had a meeting and they had a conversation
Starting point is 01:29:49 about it at all. It was a pre-planned meeting. It was a pre-show meeting and he planned to have his security remove hecklers in case there were any. But they didn't react. Has that ever happened to you?
Starting point is 01:29:58 Doing comedy, somebody heckling too much or somebody doing too much at a show? Yeah, not trying to be smart but more so having a conversation like that happens i never i did have somebody get put out when we were in connecticut just recently drunk dude drunk dude but he was just happy to be there he was he was trying to
Starting point is 01:30:15 talk to me while i was it wasn't never like boo you suck or was rushed to joke and nothing like that but sometimes and i didn't even want him to get put out but it was the people that he was around i was like yo we paid to hear the show you keep shouting and screaming you know so they were upset and they basically told him shut the f up he was starting to try to fight and the club put him out yeah so but that's that and then um hold up there's one more little story or tracy morgan reflects on tragic accidents so of course back in 2014 we knew Tracy Morgan to get into I mean we know that he got into a life-changing accident Walmart truck crashed into the back of his limo
Starting point is 01:30:52 when the New York New Jersey Turnpike he broke his leg and was left in a coma for two weeks his mentor James McNair died in a car crash he was 62 years old and he was in a wheelchair for five months and um had to attend rehabilitation and relearn how to speak and walk tracy morgan this is what he said um on social media the other day today is 10 years since our fateful accident and i want to say to everyone who was in the van with me that night i love you and we miss you uncle jimmy mack god bless your family and to the driver that night and his family, me and my comrades, forgive you. So, yeah, he definitely came a long way.
