Starting point is 00:03:23 Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, Good morning, USA! I feel like my breath stinks. Good morning, LL Cool Bay. How are you? Did you brush your teeth this morning or you was running late? No, actually I didn't. You home, so. I overslept this morning. I was in Detroit all day yesterday having a conversation with the Madam Vice President, Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:04:01 You know, we had our We The Town Hall. I mean, We The People. Town Hall. Audio Town Hall yesterday. And so I flew out like 9.30 and got home like after midnight. And I was born in 1978, y'all. So when I woke up this morning,
Starting point is 00:04:14 it was 5.30. I had no intention of oversleeping, but I did. So I got a broadcast from home today. Well, you did a good job yesterday. Well, thank you, LL Cool Bay. I appreciate that. I know that mic is hot, literally.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Man, shut up. I'm going to brush my teeth as soon as I get a break, okay? How was your day yesterday? My day was good. I mean, I was here for work all day. And then a client that we're working with, with Brown Girl Grinding, we did some press yesterday. So I did that after I left here got home and i knocked out i woke up literally to wait to watch your interview i watched the bt hip-hop awards
Starting point is 00:04:50 what else i watched victoria's secret fashion show and then i went right back to sleep yeah am i bugging or was it quiet for the bt hip-hop award i didn't know the bt hip-hop was coming on who hosted we got fat joe hosting he did a great job of course we're gonna talk about it because every bad people was like yo i didn't even know this was coming on. I didn't know it was coming on either. I just saw BET start uploading stuff from the awards. I missed it the first time it aired. I went back and watched it.
Starting point is 00:05:13 But I feel like this just happened with another award show. What was the other award? Oh, the MTV award. The MTV award. I didn't realize that was on either. Yeah. Well, I will say, though, I feel like the Hip Hop Awards never, like, it's always different, Hip Hop Awards versus
Starting point is 00:05:25 the actual, like, regular BET Awards in L.A. But still, normally, you know it's coming. I didn't even know it was coming on. That's crazy. Bow Wow said it's because
Starting point is 00:05:35 we ain't got no Diddy Party somewhere. Man, shut up. Shut up. We're going to be playing back my conversation with Madam Vice President this morning, too.
Starting point is 00:05:44 We'll be playing that in the 7 a.m. hour. We got Morgan Woods coming up with front page news and a whole lot of other good stuff. Don't go anywhere. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne Tha God, LL Cool Bay, Lauren La Rosa, DJ Envy is out today. You know, Jessalaris is on maternity leave, so it's just us two. And let's get in the front page news with Morgan.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, good morning. Yeah, good morning to you, Dr. Mr. Charlemagne, the God. You know what I'm saying? You had a very good... Doctor of what? I don't know. I'm just trying to cast a man up. First of all, I have an honorary doctorate from South Carolina State
Starting point is 00:06:22 University. Respect my honorary doctorate, ma'am. Us real graduates don't respect honoraries. But go ahead. But go off. That's what Kamala told you yesterday. But go off. Anyways, okay. So, Vice President Kamala Harris, obviously, if you missed it, I don't know where you was at.
Starting point is 00:06:36 But Vice President Kamala Harris sat down for an exclusive iHeart Audio Town Hall in Detroit with our very own Charlamagne Tha God. When asked questions about why she sounds so scripted and sticking to her talking points, well, here's what she had to say. At my rallies, I say the same thing when I go to Detroit as I do in Philly as I do wherever I am to make sure that people hear and receive what I think are some of the most critical issues that are at stake in this election. Yeah, so she said that what's at stake in this election is truly profound. And of course, I love that you guys talked about the confusion around the stimulus checks,
Starting point is 00:07:12 where Democrats in Congress actually had to pass that vote funding, that passed that funding and Trump put his name on those checks. That's another topic that I'm sure many of us can relate to is the legalization of marijuana. VP Harris says she does want to legalize marijuana on a national level, saying she and President Biden work to get weed reclassified in the criminal justice system. And when she was a San Francisco district attorney, she was against harsh penalties for weed crimes. Let's hear those comments from B.P. Harris at the town hall in Detroit with CTG. To make it classified as a lesser harm. And so that took some time.
Starting point is 00:07:49 There's a whole process around that. But that's the work that we have done. I was the most progressive prosecutor in California on marijuana cases and would not send people to jail for simple possession of weed. So she also indicated that she is confident she is going to win the election in November, but adds that the race is tight. Vice President Kamala Harris, she is expected to sit down for an exclusive with Fox News later today, taking questions from anchor Brett Baier. That's set to air at 6 p.m. Eastern from Pennsylvania, another key battleground state in this election
Starting point is 00:08:23 coming up with coming up in less than three weeks. It'll be her first sit down with Fox ever. Any thoughts on last night, Charlamagne? Oh, I just enjoyed the conversation. You know, it's one of those conversations. It's an hour long. You can go watch it on Breakfast Club's YouTube page. We'll be playing and playing it back next hour as well here on The Breakfast Club. But it's just one of those things like, you know, if you want to actually get accurate information and, you know,
Starting point is 00:08:52 don't be fueled by misinformation and actually know the truth, you'll get it from this conversation. But that's only if you want to believe it. You know? You can still be presented with the truth and still choose to believe, believe, believe whatever lies are out there. But that's on you.
Starting point is 00:09:10 Yeah, I like the way she was really comfortable with you. But you didn't, you pushed her for the stuff that, you came from a different angle than a lot of the other interviews came from. It was really just like a conversation. I felt like she was just talking to us. I mean, that's my fourth public conversation with the Vice President. I've been sitting down with Kamala Harris since she was a senator. She first came on The Breakfast Club in 2018. We have a good rapport.
Starting point is 00:09:37 A friendly but pointed rapport. Yeah, it seemed like you guys had your cracker jokes, but you kept things serious as well. Meanwhile, many Americans are eager to vote early. The latest national NBC News poll found that 5 percent of registered voters have already cast their ballots. Another 47 percent said they plan to vote early. About two and three will vote early. Who will vote early will support Kamala Harris. About 17 percent above Donald Trump voters.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Nearly six and 10 voters who plan to vote on election day support former President Trump while 37 percent who plan to vote on election day say they support Harris let's hear from some early voters who have already cast their ballot because last time I waited line going around the block around the corner now I'm getting my vote in today right now I was awake before six i would have come out then but it was kind of chilly but i did it for them for the women in my family so 46 states and washington dc has started some form of early voting 13 states will begin um as the we'll begin this week as or we'll begin as this week continues excuse me among those are
Starting point is 00:10:44 key battleground states of north carolina and nevada others include iowa kansas rhode island tennessee louisiana washington massachusetts the district of course and georgia so if you're um in those states you can cast your ballots uh as of this week uh speaking of georgia county election officials in georgia are being told they must certify election results. An Atlanta judge ruled that local officials have a mandatory fixed obligation to certify the results. The judge added that the election election officials should share any concerns about fraud with the appropriate authorities but cannot use that as basis to delay certification. He said if election superintendents were free to play investigator,
Starting point is 00:11:26 prosecutor, jury, and judge, then Georgia voters would be silenced. This is one of two closely watched cases involving election certification in Georgia with the other still pending from, you know, that last election. So, any thoughts on that? I wonder who got to guard them votes for three weeks.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Like, who got to watch over all them votes, all them early votes for the next three weeks. Do they keep them in a vote or something? They need to have the aunties in the church do it because they don't play. I'm trying to tell you. Look, the trustees, right? Oh, that deacon board? Right, definitely. Well, we'll see what's happening on the other side of the aisle at 7 a.m.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Get caught up with Trump. He was in Chicago. And, of course, we'll talk about what's happening in the Adams administration at 7 as well. That's your front page news for 6. I'm Morgan Wood. Thank you, Morgan Wood. We got Get It Off Your Chest coming up right now. 1-800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Call up. Tell us why you're blessed. Call up if you want to vent. Whatever it is, we're here for you. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. This is your time
Starting point is 00:12:32 to get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Who's this? Yo, yo. Hey, Charlamagne.
Starting point is 00:12:42 I saw your interview last night. First of all, before I say what I'm trying to say, I just want them to drop a clues ball for you, bro, because I'm proud of how far you done came, man. I ain't gonna lie to you, bro. You came a long way, bro. Growth is real, man, and I'm proud of you, bro, for real.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Thank you, King. I appreciate me. That means the world coming from you, my brother. Now, what I want to say is I saw the interview last night and I feel like if the Democratic Party don't uphold the promises that they make to their voters, I really believe that they're going to lose the black vote moving forward after this election a lot of what kamala harris was saying it sounded good but i think she's a little bit toned up to every damn american citizens when when you ask them i think when the guy asked about um like what you're doing for the economy she she started mentioning like you know the the home buying and all that stuff but she went to where she was talking about how she made uh medications affordable for seniors and all that and i and i appreciate her doing that for
Starting point is 00:13:52 that but it's like as far as like young black americans the gen z's and the millennials like but we living in a life where a lot of us if we ain't left our mama house we don't move back in with mama so it's like like, what is her plan as far as like the immediate impact on the economy to where we can start getting back to saving money so we can be able to start investing into like
Starting point is 00:14:17 having a small business and stuff like that. Go ahead. I would encourage you to Google just Google Kamala Harris's opportunity economy plan. That's what I would tell you to do. And a lot of what you're asking for is in there. And the reason I give her props on that is because I've seen what she's done the last almost four years in the White House in regards to putting money back into the economy.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Especially with the American Rescue Plan and small businesses. But go look into it. Can I say one last thing? Yes, sir. Lauren up there, right? I'm here. What I do? Hey, Lauren, I ain't gonna lie to you. You my baby.
Starting point is 00:15:00 And I'll rock with you, right? I'm gonna have to say this, dog. That Travis Kelsey comment you made last year is still on my chest, man. Mine too, man. You got to move on. You got to clear your throat and your chest. I'm about to move on. You need them use the next year vibes because we passed that.
Starting point is 00:15:17 Listen, listen. I'm about to say that. I'm about to move on. But I gave you grace on that. But then you turn around beginning of this football season and say that Taylor Swift was carrying a league on them smart ass shoulders.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Dumb bony shoulders. You love you some white people. You love you some white people. God damn, Lauren. You love you some white people. Dumb bony shoulders. I'm so sorry about that. I'm so sorry. But you see where the camera keep going every time she had the game though we don't care oh we don't care uh get it off your chest 1-800-585-1051 call us right now if you want to vent if you want to tell us why

Starting point is 00:16:54 I'm doing wonderful. I just wanted to share my happiness with the world. I just got back from my honeymoon. But I've been together with my partner for 15 years. We have two wonderful children. And the biggest thing about this is that my parents separated when I was two. And so I came from a broken home. And his parents, like his father, was abusive to his mother. So for both of us to come from these households and
Starting point is 00:17:26 raise our children in a peaceful, loving home, it's the greatest blessing that God could ever give me. That is incredible. Where'd y'all go for your honeymoon? Cancun. It was really good. It was a lot of fun. Okay, so you think you
Starting point is 00:17:42 about a week pregnant and don't know it yet? Oh, no. I'm done having kids. My kids are 12 and 7. I'm done. I'm out here trucking. I drive trucks, so I'm too busy. Well, congratulations to you and your boo.

Charlamagne Tha God, LL Cool Bay.
Starting point is 00:18:25 Good morning. Shout out to Chess. Shout out to Andy. Yes, sir. Yeah, I'm just trying to get it off my chest, man. I don't like all the hate that J. Cole has been getting off this new song, this new single, this new song he just dropped, man. It's like he's doing what he's always done the whole time. He's giving his side of the story.
Starting point is 00:18:43 He's giving his personal lift and putting it in a song. I don't think he was going to be able to move on without addressing it in a song. Everybody hated when he apologized initially. Then they saw how the battle went and how personal it got. It was like, wow, J. Cole was really smart for getting out of it.
Starting point is 00:18:59 And now we're hearing this side of the story. It's like, oh, no, you shouldn't have said anything. It's like, they mad that he said he would have won. They mad he said that he had the blood of his friends on him it's like what did y'all want this man to say y'all thought he was gonna get on the track and be like yeah i would have lost that's why i got out it's like nah man it's still cole at the end of the day he's still around with anybody he's in my top 10 and kendrick's in my top ten, and Kendrick's in my top five, and it's coming from a tender plan. But Cole's still that dude, and he's still giving you bars in his song. And I just, it's kind of why, especially like the media,
Starting point is 00:19:33 they went in on him like, yo, what y'all want from the man? Well, that's what I think it is. And I respect you being a Dreamville surrogate, but what I think that it is is the fact that he's like the guy who acted like he'd beat your ass if he didn't have to go to work in the morning. You know what I'm saying? You ever seen that dude
Starting point is 00:19:52 who act like he gonna beat your ass? Boy, you lucky I gotta go to work in the morning. Man, either you gonna swing or you not. So for him to apologize, which was fine, I respect that move. I think that he did what was best for his mental health.
Starting point is 00:20:06 But don't write a song acting like you just spun the block, bro. Like, I didn't appreciate that. I don't feel like he was saying he would have spun the block, but he was just like, look, man, from his perspective, this is what it was. And it's like, yo, you know, is we gonna have to balance? Did Kendrick shift
Starting point is 00:20:21 what hip-hop is? Are we gonna allow this? Because it's like, no, you should have been about that smoke. And it's like, that's not where he was coming from. That's not who he's been the whole time. And, you know, he has been talking greasy the last, like, two or three years, speeches and everything like that. And it was
Starting point is 00:20:38 like, you know what I'm saying? Kind of like, you gotta fall back. But now he's giving us his perspective. And it's like, you can't really, like, fault the man for telling you whatever he giving us his perspective, and it's like, you can't really, like, fault the man for telling you whatever the voice from his perspective. It's like, yo, I think it's a dope song. I think he's giving us a ball.
Starting point is 00:20:52 I kinda wanna hear what Trav gotta say about it, too. Yeah, you know what? I haven't heard Trav's opinion, but thank you for calling, brother. All right, that was Get It Off Your Chest. You can call us every morning around this time, 1-800-585-1051, and get it off your chest. Now we got Just With The Mess coming up with Lauren LaRosa.

True. I mean, he had a year. Travis Scott also was there, which I was actually surprised to see Travis Scott there.

Big names unless they're performing and they're dipping, but he was there because he was receiving an award. It ain't just the hip-hop awards. Most major black superstars don't come to black award shows. Yeah. Why? I don't know, they they don't well
Starting point is 00:29:05 i do know because they think white ice is cold especially like travis sky the huge names right so he won the i am hip-hop award um that was presented to him by tiana taylor along with tyler let's take a listen to his speech first uh thank god um i'm nothing without him no i come from this generation where they considered us nowhere near like hip-hop quote-unquote every day i try to like push the sound and coming in as like a producer nobody knew what i was trying to do but i always had this idea and i had this vision um still to this day uh just to take the sound and take things just to the next level and i'm just so glad that we made it this far i'm actually going to go do metlife stadium tomorrow and that's actually crazy. And I just want to let everybody
Starting point is 00:29:46 know where you come from doesn't really matter. Just what goes on in your brain can take you to the next level and beyond. And with true focus and true drive and with real surroundings, you can go wherever the f*** you want to go. When the last time you heard Travis Scott talk?
Starting point is 00:30:04 Last year at the iHeartRadio Music Festival. I couldn't even remember the last time. No, I mean like that, though, like a public speech. I don't even remember a time ever hearing that. Man, you know what's so funny? When they called me to interview Travis Scott a couple of years ago, I thought the same thing. I was like, he talks?
Starting point is 00:30:21 I've never heard him talk. Yeah, I thought he was like a mute. Like he can only talk in the booth or something. Like he can't talk out in the street. But nah, he can talk. He's a good dude. And you know what's so funny? He said he was going to do MetLife Stadium.
Starting point is 00:30:35 So this means they recorded this a while ago. Yeah, they recorded, I think it was like a week or two ago. So you had two weeks to promote and you didn't promote and we still didn't know it was on? I'm going to look up what date, but it definitely was pre-recorded um but also to break through hip-hop artists sexy red one i thought that was fire i was at the hip-hop awards in atlanta a few years ago remember she had that viral moment where she was dancing in the crowd but they played her song but she wasn't actually a part of the awards so from then until now just to see how big sexy has gotten it
Starting point is 00:31:01 is like fire to see um what else? Oh, best hip hop platform. Breakfast Club was nominated for this arena of things, but we didn't win. Turn the claps off. Club Shay Shay won. You can clap for Club Shay Shay. Yeah, Club Shay Shay won best hip hop platform. 50 Cent won Hustler of the Year. Very well deserved.
Starting point is 00:31:24 Missy Elliott won best live performer. Also, the Year. Very well deserved. Missy Elliott won Best Live Performer. Also, of course, very well deserved. There were also a bunch of really good performances last night. One that I enjoyed very thoroughly was Trina. She performed and she brought out Young Miami on the stage. Let's go! I love that song. Man, dropping the clues behind Trina. You hear me? Legend!
Starting point is 00:32:04 I got Trina's book right now i'm actually about to start reading uh trina trina's new book actually i just finished it it was great i love i love trina i like trina me and my group chat always say trina raised this so reading her book i'm like man that might be the problem whoa read her read her book and i think you'll think otherwise she is such a well-balanced bad like, like what? Don't play with her. I love Trina. Salute to Trina. I got I got nothing but the absolute respect for Trina. And you know what? I want to say something about the hip hop platform thing. I think that they need to change the name, the cultural platform, because the reality is most of these platforms, you know, don't just focus on hip hop.
Starting point is 00:32:43 And a platform like Club Shea Shea, that's not even a hip-hop-centric platform. You understand what I'm saying? I get you. You can have platforms like Breakfast Club or Sway. I don't even remember who else was nominated. But we're hip-hop-centric platforms that have conversations with a whole multitude of different people.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Shea Shea is not even a hip-hop-centric platform. So I think it should be cultural platform. And he would still win that this year, by the way. Yeah, he had a big year. But to answer your question, the Hip Hop Awards were pre-recorded on October 8th. Y'all had all that time to promote, and y'all didn't promote BET?
Starting point is 00:33:20 Since October. What's today's date? Y'all had a week? Today is October 16thth but at least now it's trending trina's performance is trending so shout out to trina so you know yeah that's the end of the mess yeah can we play more trina what we gotta do right now we actually have to get ready for front page news i'm swallowing some oatmeal right now that's why i ain't go back to my t-shirt because i had to do some breakfast why is that a bug i'm swallowing some oatmeal right now. That's why I ain't go brush my teeth yet. Pause. Because I had to do some breakfast.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Why is that a pause? I'm swallowing oatmeal. I just, I don't know, you swallowing after Trina so big. Be back next with front page news and we'll be sitting down with Madam Vice President Kamala Harris. We'll be playing that conversation back from yesterday, so don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:34:02 Yep, it's the most dangerous morning show, the Breakfast Club. Charlemagne Tha God, Lauren La larosa uh dj envy is out today jess hilarious is still on maternity leave but it's time for front page news with morgan wood good morning morgan good morning good morning so yeah former president trump he took part in an economic forum in chicago before heading to georgia to tape a fox news town hall with an audience of women that will air at 11 a.m. today. Now, while in Chicago, he sat down for an interview with Bloomberg News and the Economic Club of Chicago and said if elected, he will bring companies back to the U.S. and implement what he calls strong tariffs. Let's hear more from former President Trump.
Starting point is 00:34:39 We're going to bring the companies back. We're going to lower taxes still further for companies that are going to make their product in the USA. We're going to protect those companies with strong tariffs because I'm a believer in tariffs. But tariffs are two things if you look at it. Number one is for protection of the companies that we have here and the new companies that will move in because we're going to have thousands of companies coming into this country we're going to grow it like it's never grown before i'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary so when i keep hearing somebody talk about something i have to look it up so i'm always hearing about these tariffs tariffs do we understand that a tariff is basically a sales tax raising the price of almost everything that we buy and we pay those tariffs
Starting point is 00:35:23 like tariffs aren't paid by other countries they're paid by us the consumer do we know this well they taught that in social studies i remember no okay i didn't know in a minute from since social studies could as well despite that polls have shown that voters believe trump would handle the economy better than harris if elected despite data historically showing that the economy has done better under the Democratic Party. Now, former President Trump's rally on, he has fuzzed the rally in Detroit on Friday. He will be in Huntington Place. He's scheduled to speak at the center at 7 p.m. and doors will open at 3 p.m.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Of course, Vice President Kamala Harris will also be in the area campaigning on Friday. In Oakland County, voters will decide between the two in less than three weeks. Of course, Michigan remains one of those battleground states, but have recently historically voted blue. Switching gears, though. Real quick, Morgan, I want to say, too, being in Detroit all day yesterday, when I tell you people from Detroit are pissed off about Donald Trump's comments that he made last week when he said
Starting point is 00:36:27 if the vice president becomes president, Detroit will be, I mean America will be like Detroit. Oh man, salute Detroit from So Fresh So Clean Barbershop. I had a conversation with him about it. I had a conversation with a lot of people about that one line yesterday
Starting point is 00:36:43 and they did not appreciate that at all. Detroit, what up, though? All right, well, let's switch gears to something just a little more sad. But let's go ahead and continue to say her name, Breonna Taylor. Jury selection is underway in the retrial of a former Louisville, Kentucky, police officer charged in connection with the death of Breonna Taylor. Brett Hankison was part of the 2020 raid on Taylor's apartment when Taylor's boyfriend, thinking he was being robbed, fired a shot and hit the officer in the leg. Police returned fire, killing Taylor. Hankison didn't shoot Taylor, but allegedly fired blindly into the apartment because
Starting point is 00:37:18 he said he thought his fellow officers were being executed. Hankison is charged with civil rights violations and using excessive force. It's the third time he will face trial for this raid. He was acquitted of state charges and an earlier federal case was dismissed when the jury couldn't reach a verdict. So here we go again. Let's say her name, Breonna Taylor.
Starting point is 00:37:40 And bringing things home to New York City, Mayor Eric Adams is denying knowing much about the vacation to Japan involving two of his senior staffers who had their phones seized upon their return from that trip. Adams says he doesn't ask where or whom his staffers travel. Let's hear more
Starting point is 00:37:58 from Eric Adams. I do not sit down with my staffers and say before you go on vacations, you need to tell me who you're going on with and you need to let me know where you're going. I don't do that. Believe it or not, what people do on their personal private time is on them. And normally I don't ask my staffers. If they come in and say, hey, I'm going to Bermuda. You want to give me a couple of bucks to get you some Bermuda rum, then I know they went to Bermuda. Adams Chief Advisor Ingrid Lewis Martin and Deputy Commissioner for
Starting point is 00:38:26 Real Estate Services Jesse Hamilton had their personal devices seized at JFK last month in connection to the Manhattan DA's office's investigation into possible corruption involving the city's commercial leases, according to the New York Times. They apparently traveled with a lobbyist who had recently lobbied for
Starting point is 00:38:41 Hamilton and the VP of the commercial real estate services firm, uh, Cushman and Wakefield, the firm that helps the city secure such leases. Now, when asked to confirm that no city funds were spent on that trip to Japan, Adam said it was not sponsored by the city. So Adam's he continues to hold it down and say, Hey, you know what I'm saying? This, this wasn't me. This was them. Y'all talk to them. And if we have time for one more, I just want to let you guys know that after a review of Don't Ask, Don't
Starting point is 00:39:10 Tell policy, the Defense Department is now honorably discharging about 800 service members. The 1993 policy that allowed LGBTQ individuals to serve as long as they didn't publicly state their sexual orientation or gender identity was repealed in 2011.
Starting point is 00:39:25 Now, the Pentagon launched a review last year of LGBTQ plus service members records who were discharged with less than honorable status and honorable discharge status allows for benefits for some of those veterans. So shout out to the LGBTQIA plus, whatever you identify as, whoever you identify as for serving our country. I don't care how you identify because at the end of the day, my punk butt is not going to do it. And so I salute you and I hope that you will be able to get that honorable status if you were discharged with less than honorable status. Yeah, you can't identify as a veteran.
Starting point is 00:40:00 You either are or you're not. Okay, you either served this country or you didn't. So salute to all our veterans out there. Absolutely. So that's your front page news. I'm Morgan Wood. You can follow me on social at Morgan Media, M-O-R-G-Y-N-M-E-D-I-A. And for more news coverage, follow at Black Information Network and download the free iHeartRadio app.
Starting point is 00:40:18 Visit BINnews.com. Talk to y'all later. Happy hump day. Thank you, Morgan. When we come back, we will be playing back some portions of my audio town hall that I had with the Vice President Kamala Harris yesterday. We had an audio town hall called We The People. Okay. And if you missed it, we'll be getting it back on for you right now. So don't go anywhere.
Starting point is 00:40:38 It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Charlemagne Tha God here. Now, yesterday, you know we had our audio town hall with the Vice President Kamala Harris. We titled it, We The People, an audio
Starting point is 00:40:55 town hall with Kamala Harris, Charlemagne Tha God, and you. And that went down yesterday in Detroit, so we're going to get it back on for you right now. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Peace to the planet. Charlemagne Tha God here with Madam Vice President Kamala Harris. How are you?
Starting point is 00:41:10 Very well, Charlemagne. How you doing? Listen, we got 20 days and 60 minutes. We just need to get to it. I'm with you. Although it's 21 days. How are you? Because you did just walk in.
Starting point is 00:41:18 You were kind of late. Well, I try to be on time. Apparently, I'm 40 seconds late. You're right. Well, you are black. Uh-huh. Okay. Well, I try to be on time. Apparently, I'm 40 seconds late. You're right. Well, you are black. Uh-huh. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Now, you know, one thing they've been saying, a lot of your press hits get criticized. You know, folks say you come off as very scripted. They say you like to stick to your talking points. And some media says you have. That would be called discipline. Oh, okay. Speak to that. Okay, but go on. No, I was going to say some people say you have an inability to fearlessly say who you are and what you believe.
Starting point is 00:41:45 I know that's not true. But what do you say to that criticism? And is it fair for SNL to make fun of it? Hasn't Maya Rudolph been wonderful? Yes. I think I have nothing but admiration for the comedy. And I think it's important to be able to laugh at yourself and each other. But what do you say to people who say you're...
Starting point is 00:42:00 In the spirit of, obviously, comedy and not belittling people as my opponent would do. But what do you say to people who say you stay on the talking points? I would say you're welcome. The reality is that there are certain things that must be repeated to ensure that I have everyone know what I stand for and the issues that I think are at stake in this election. And so it requires repetition. You know, some people say that if until someone has heard the same thing at least three times, it just doesn't stay with you. So repetition is important. And for that reason, yes, at my rallies, I say the same thing when I go to Detroit, as I do in Philly, as I do wherever I am,
Starting point is 00:42:47 to make sure that people hear and receive what I think are some of the most critical issues that are at stake in this election. There has to be a high level of anxiety, too, when you have these conversations, though, because you are running for president. I mean, you know what? There is certainly a lot of I feel the weight of the moment and my role. I feel an extraordinary weight of responsibility right now to do everything I can. I'm telling you, Charlemagne, when I go to bed at night, I almost every night, in addition to my prayers, will ask, have I done everything I could do today? This is a margin of error race. It's tight. I'm going in. I'm going in.
Starting point is 00:43:24 But it's tight. I'm going in. I'm going in. But it's tight. And, you know, what is at stake is truly profound and almost and historic, many would say. And it's about, you know, some people would say this lofty notion of supporting and preserving our democracy. But it is about real issues that affect people every day, like whether we're going to maintain a $35 cap on insulin for our seniors, whether we're going to continue to allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices to bring them down, whether we are going to have, as my opponent would have, a formalized stop and frisk policy, for which he has said if a police department does not do it, they should be defunded or not. There is so much at stake. Whether America is going to stand on its principles around the importance of sovereignty and territorial integrity and stand with our allies around the world. Or whether we're going to admire dictators and send during the height of COVID in the pandemic, COVID tests that nobody could get to the president of Russia for his personal use when black people were dying every day by the hundreds during that time. Yeah, I feel like that one, that one has gone over people's heads.
Starting point is 00:44:33 The fact that he was sending COVID test to Putin. I mean, you know, I invite your listeners, the people we know, the number of people who lost their grandparents and parents. Remember what that was like during the height of covid and a lot of it. People were scrambling for the resources and needed tests. And Donald Trump during that time secretly sent covid tests to the president of Russia, who, by the way, do not forget in the 2016 election, because I was a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee when we when we investigated it, targeted black voters in 2016 with mis and disinformation to discourage black people from voting in that election. And this is just another of the very many examples of who Donald Trump really is and the danger he presents to real people. Sending COVID tests to Russia, that doesn't sound very America first at all. But it's not just you versus Trump, it's you versus misinformation.
Starting point is 00:45:35 Yes, that's true. And one of the biggest pieces of misinformation, one of the biggest allegations against you is that you targeted and locked up thousands of black men in San Francisco for weed. Some say you did it to boost your career. Some say you did it out of pure hate for black men. Please tell us the facts. What's the facts of that situation? It's just simply not true. And what public defenders who are around those days will tell you, I was the most progressive prosecutor in California on marijuana cases and would not send people to jail for simple possession of weed. And as vice president, have been a champion for bringing marijuana down on the schedule. So instead of it being ranked up there with heroin, we bring it down.
Starting point is 00:46:15 And my pledge is as president, I will work on decriminalizing it because I know exactly how those laws have been used to disproportionately impact certain populations and specifically black men okay let's take some when i call let's go to the talkback feature my question for kamala is why are we and i say we because my tax dollars is sending the money why are we sending money to other countries when we desperately need it in our own country for homeless, housing, resources, for whatever? That is my determining factor if I vote for Kamala or not. That's one of the reasons the America First rhetoric resonates because nobody in America would complain about where money was going if American citizens everyday needs were being met. So what do you say to that?
Starting point is 00:47:07 We can do it all and we do. So, first of all, I maintain very strongly America should never pull ourselves away from our responsibility as a world leader. And that is in the best interest of our national security and each one of us as Americans and our standing in the world. That being said, we also have an obligation to American citizens, obviously, and people who are here to meet their everyday needs and challenges, which is why, for example, we have done the work in the last four years of bringing down the cost of prescription medication, whether it be $35 a month for seniors for insulin or $2,000 a year cap on prescription medication. What we have done that has been about putting $17 billion in our HBCUs. I am proud to be the first HBCU vice president of the United States.
Starting point is 00:47:59 I intend to be the first HBCU president of the United States. Those resources are about sending them to centers of academic excellence that I know them to be. The work that I continue to do is about increasing access to capital for our small businesses. It is about increasing the opportunity for home ownership, knowing that black people are 40% less likely to be homeowners in America. We have a history of legal and procedural obstacles to that homeownership, starting with the fact nobody got 40 acres and a mule, to redlining, to issues that this Detroit area and people around the country know to be real. So part of my plan is
Starting point is 00:48:38 that we're going to give people a $25,000 down payment assistance to get their foot in the door to buy a home for first time home buyers. The work that I'm going to do to increase. So, y'all, this is Questlove, and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the story pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September

Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history,
Starting point is 00:49:40 like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Colvin.

Listen to Haunting on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Muhammad Ali, George Foreman, James Brown, B.B. King, Miriam Akiba. I shook up the world. James Brown said, say it loud.
Starting point is 00:52:28 And the kid said, I'm black and I'm proud. Black boxing stars and black music royalty together in the heart of Zaire, Africa. Three days of music and then the boxing event. What was going on in the world at the time made this fight as important that anything else is going on on the planet. My grandfather laid on the ropes and let George Foreman basically just punch himself out. Welcome to Rumble, the story of a world in transformation. The 60s and prior to that, you couldn't call a person black. And how we arrived at this peak moment. I don't have to be what you want me to be. We all came from the continent of Africa.
Starting point is 00:53:10 Listen to Rumble, Ali, Foreman, and the soul of 74 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Thank you.

Starting point is 00:54:20 Housing supply in America, knowing that that's one of the reasons that rents and housing prices are jacked up, and to work with the private sector, cut through the red tape, and work to build more housing, 3 million before the end of my first term. And I give these examples, and there are many more which I will offer. So for example, the work that I will do to extend the child tax credit to $6,000 for young families during the first year of their child's life. Because as you and I both know, our families all have a natural desire to parent their children well,
Starting point is 00:54:50 but not always the resources. So by expanding the child tax credit to the first year of child's life to $6,000, that gives that young family the ability to buy a car seat or a crib or clothes, the things that are so important during that critical phase of that child's development so that they can get on the road and actually have a chance at succeeding. All right. When we come back, we will be playing more from my audio town hall with the vice president Kamala Harris that we did live from Detroit yesterday.
Starting point is 00:55:19 OK, it's the Breakfast Club. Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, the Breakfast Club. Charlemagne the God here. Now, yesterday, you know, we had our town hall with the Vice President, Kamala Harris. We titled it, We the People, an audio town hall with Kamala Harris, Charlemagne Tha God, and you. And that went down yesterday in Detroit, so we're going to get it back on for you right now. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, the Breakfast Club. Have you seen the clip, Madam Vice President, from The Griot?
Starting point is 00:55:45 It's a clip that's kind of out of context, and it says that you won't do anything specifically for black people. Have you seen that? I've not seen that. Well, it's a clip that has you saying that you're not going to do anything specifically for black people. Well, that's just not true. And listen, again, you said it at the beginning of this visit, Charlemagne.
Starting point is 00:56:05 One of the biggest challenges that I face is missing disinformation. And it's purposeful because it is meant to convince people that they somehow should not believe that the work that I have done has occurred and has meaning. My work from the beginning of my career through today has been about, for example, we've talked about it, whether it be on HBCUs, whether it be on health care, black maternal mortality, I am singularly, many would say, one of the highest level leaders in our country to bring the issue of black maternal mortality to the stage of the White House to address it. The work that I've done that has been about focusing on my knowledge and my experience and my life experience of knowing the entrepreneurship that we have in the community, the ambition, the aspirations, the dreams, and then tapping into that so that not only has my work been about ensuring that we have some of the lowest black unemployment ever in our country,
Starting point is 00:57:10 but that also knowing that that should be a baseline that everybody has a job. And what we should be invested in is also building wealth in the community and intergenerational wealth. And I have many, many examples of that. But again, part of the challenge that I face is that they are trying to scare people away because they know they otherwise have nothing to run on. Ask Donald Trump what his plan is for Black America. Ask him. I'll tell you what it is. Look at Project 2025. Project 2025 tells you the plan includes making police departments have stop and frisk policies. The plan includes making it more difficult for workers to receive overtime pay. The plan includes ending the ability of Medicare to negotiate drug prices. You know what we have done? He said he would. We did.
Starting point is 00:58:05 Which means that that's how we brought down the cost of prescription medication his plan includes making it more difficult for working people to get by and to destroy our democracy you know what he says he'll do terminate the constitution of the united states let me remind folks you know what's in the constitution of the united states the fourth amendment which protects you against unreasonable That's right. a movement spurred by black people to ensure that we would be equally protected under the law before we go to another talk back call i want to say uh there was a time i had a politician tell me once that if you're running for a national election it's bad electoral strategy to say you are going to do things specifically for black people which is why a lot of politicians don't speak directly to their plans for black people is that a thing thing? I don't know that that's true. I think that what is true is that I am running to be president for everybody,
Starting point is 00:59:10 but I am clear-eyed about the history and the disparities that exist for specific communities, and I'm not going to shy away from that. It doesn't mean that my policies aren't going to benefit everybody, because they are. Everything I just talked about will benefit everybody. Small business owners, whatever their race, their age, their gender, their geographic location are going to benefit from the fact
Starting point is 00:59:31 that I'm going to extend tax deductions to $50,000. Every first-time homeowner, wherever they are, whatever their race, will benefit if they are a first-time homebuyer with a $25,000 down payment assistance. Everyone is going to benefit from my plan to extend the child tax credit to $6,000 for the first year of their child's life. That's going to benefit everybody. But I do realize, again, that on the issue of home ownership, for example, black people are 40% less likely to own a home. So do you, you know, do you feel like President
Starting point is 01:00:02 Obama stepped on your rollout? Because I know you've been working on this blackmail agenda for a long time, and you've been doing the outreach, which was the Opportunity Economy Tour and things like that. But then he made the statements that he made last week, so everybody thinks this is a reaction to that. Oh, no, no, no, no. I mean, you just have to. No, obviously not. I've been doing this for quite some time, including before I was running for president. Let's go to talk about it.
Starting point is 01:00:25 Hi, I'm Bobby from Georgia, and I have a question for Kamala Harris. Could you please respond to Trump's claim that he's going to use the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to round up immigrants if he wins the election? This law was last used to put Asian-Americans in internment camps during World War II. And I have a sneaking suspicion that if Trump wins, he's going to use this law to put anyone that doesn't look white in camps. And I'm scared. point and expressed it, I think, so well, which is he is achieving his intended effect to make you scared. He is running full time on a campaign that is about instilling fear, not about hope, not about optimism, not about the future, but about fear. And so this is yet another example. Look what he did in saying that those legal immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were eating their pets. And by the way, the hypocrisy of it abounds because on the issue of immigration, let's be clear. Some of the most conservative members of the United States Congress, working with others, came up with a border security bill, which was the strongest, toughest border security bill in a long, long time.
Starting point is 01:01:48 It would have put 1,500 more border agents at the border. It would have reduced the flow of fentanyl into our country, which is killing people all over our country of every race and background. It would have allowed us to do more work on prosecuting transnational criminal organizations, which I have done in my career. Trump got word that that bill was afoot, knew it would fix the problem, and told his buddies in Congress to kill the bill. And you know why? Because he would prefer to run on a problem instead of fixing a problem. And he's running his campaign in a way that he does these rallies where people, by the way, walk out and does these rallies to try and instill fear around an issue where he actually could be part of a solution, but he chose not to because he prefers to run on a problem instead of fix a problem.
Starting point is 01:02:33 And we got to call it out and see it for what it is. All right. When we come back, we will be playing more from my audio town hall with the vice president, Kamala Harris, that we did live from Detroit yesterday. OK, it's the Breakfast Club. Yes, Harris, that we did live from Detroit yesterday. Okay. It's the breakfast club. Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, the breakfast club, Charlemagne Tha God here. Now, yesterday, you know, we had our audio town hall with the vice president, Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 01:02:54 We titled it, We the People, an audio town hall with Kamala Harris, Charlemagne Tha God, and you. And that went down yesterday in Detroit. So we're going to get it back on for you right now. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, the breakfast club. Before we go to talk about it, I want us to say in you. And that went down yesterday in Detroit. So we're going to get it back on for you right now. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Before we go to talk about it, I want to say something else. I don't feel like the Biden administration has treated Trump like a real threat to democracy. And that's why
Starting point is 01:03:13 America doesn't realize how much of a threat he is. It's one thing to say it, but you have to act on it. Don't you believe Merrick Garland should have moved faster to put Donald Trump in prison for leading an attempted coup in this country? The Department of Justice has independence in terms of how they make those decisions, as they should. And let's also be very clear.
Starting point is 01:03:32 What do you think? No, Donald Trump has been very clear that he would weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies. He has been very clear that he would take out the independent folks who are in there and put in there instead his loyalists. So understand, again, you talk about because this brings back to exactly your point about threats to our democracy. Donald Trump would go in to the Department of Justice and manipulate it in such a way that it would be used as a weapon against his political enemies. Yeah, he's going to lock you all up if he gets back in office. Well, by the way, he's going to as a weapon against his political enemies yeah he's gonna lock y'all up
Starting point is 01:04:05 if he gets back in office well by the way he's gonna you should look at his words i don't think that you as a journalist should feel so so sure that journalists judges others and you know who does that dictators do that other countries do that which is say that you're going to send as he has the military to go and and and suppress peaceful protesters that happens in other countries that's not supposed to happen in america so do understand when this man says what he says how that would play out in real time so why is it okay for him to say he'll lock up his political opponents, but it's not okay for y'all to say he should be in prison when he's actually committed crimes? Oh, I've been very clear. I think that the court should handle that. And I'm going to handle November. The court should handle that. Okay, let's go to talk back, Eddie. What do we got?
Starting point is 01:05:02 Our men and women in the military are sent to foreign countries to fight for their freedom. Win or lose, Donald Trump has promised to seek revenge. My question is, will our military be there to fight for our freedom after the election?
Starting point is 01:05:20 Should Trump start another insurrection? You raise a profound point that is very much a part of this election cycle in terms of what the American people have a choice right now. So January 6th, Donald Trump incited a violent mob to try and undo the will of the people and undo the results of a free and fair election. That violent mob attacked the United States Capitol. Over 140 law enforcement officers were injured. Some of them were killed. And he has said since then that there will be a bloodbath after this election. He has, on your point about the military, referred to members of our military as suckers and losers, which is
Starting point is 01:06:06 why, by the way, do see the number of military leaders who worked under his administration who are supporting me. And I will point out what everyone knows, which is that the people who worked the closest with Donald Trump when he was president, worked with him in the Oval Office, saw him at play in the Situation Room. His chief of staff, two secretaries of defense, his national security advisor, and his former vice president have all said he is dangerous and unfit to serve. Mark Milley, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, most recently articulated exactly that point. And again, you know, here's Charlemagne, one of the things that I think is really ironic but at play.
Starting point is 01:06:50 Donald Trump, through his way of trying to name call and demean and divide, tries to project as though those things are a sign of strength. When in fact, the man is really quite weak. He's weak. It's a sign of weakness that you want to please dictators and seek their flattery and favor. It's a sign of weakness that you would demean America's military and America's service members it's a sign of weakness that you don't have the courage to stand up for the constitution of the united states and the principles upon which it stands this man is weak and he is unfit so why is everybody sitting around acting like donald trump isn't going to plan to steal
Starting point is 01:07:37 this election if he loses like you know republican officials won't certify the results of the election we know it's donald trump supreme court why are people acting like this is going to be a free and fair election and he won't try to steal it well but those are two different points okay so it will be a free and fair election if we the american people stand up for that you know i i see it as this i think that their democracy has it's like two points of nature one there's a a fact about a democracy that when it is intact, the strength that it possesses in terms of the protection of people's individual rights and liberties. When a democracy is intact, we protect your rights and your liberties. Strength.
Starting point is 01:08:19 Democracy is also very fragile. It will only be as strong as our willingness, we the people, to fight for it. And not as much as anything as what's at play in this election. Fight for our democracy, flawed though it is, imperfect though it may be, because there are very two real paths right now. The man has told you he intends to terminate the Constitution. The man has told you all these things about his disregard and disrespect for your freedoms and liberty including the right of a woman to make decisions about her own body and he hand-selected three members of the united states supreme court with the intention they would
Starting point is 01:08:53 do exactly what they did one out of three women in america lives in a state with the trump abortion ban you know every state except virginia in the south has an abortion ban you know where the majority of black women live in the south in those same ban. You know where the majority of black women live? In the South. In those same states that have some of the highest rates of black maternal mortality. And they want to strut around talking about this is in the interest of women and children, and they've been silent on an issue like black maternal mortality? But I know that people are aware and clear-eyed. And I do believe that on Election Day and early voting in Michigan starts
Starting point is 01:09:26 in four days, people are going to go to the polls and they're going to vote to stand up for these principles and to stand up for their rights to freedom and liberty and to live and just be free to be.
Starting point is 01:09:42 I believe that. But back to Detroit. So can you imagine, you go to a city, and you say you want the votes of those people, and then you disparage the city. And that's what he did in Detroit, and he has a tendency to mention cities
Starting point is 01:09:59 that either have a historically black majority population or a black mayor. That's right. And that's what he did. He only did that to Detroit because Detroit is 78% black and he doesn't want America to look like that. Madam Vice President, thank you. We got to do this again. We're done?
Starting point is 01:10:14 We only, according to IHART, we just want to keep going. I got more questions for you. But thank you. I appreciate you, Charlamagne. Thank you. That's my spirit animal. Gloria, Hallelujah Woods. Okay. I go by the name of Charlamagne the God.. That's my spirit animal. Gloria. Hallelujah Woods. Okay. I go by the name of Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 01:10:28 This is the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. DJ Envy is off today. Jess Hilarious is on maternity leave. So it's just I and LL Cool Bay, Lauren LaRosa. And it's time for Jess with the mess with Lauren LaRosa. The news is real, whatever it is. Hilarious, Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lie.
Starting point is 01:10:43 Don't do no lie. She don't spell nobody. Worldwide Jets. Worldwide Mets. On The Breakfast Club. She's a coach. With Lauren LaRosa. I'm back.
Starting point is 01:10:57 And I got the Mets. Talk to me. Charlotte, you sat down with VP Harris yesterday. I did. We just played it I did, we just played it Yes, we just played in it So you guys, and also you can watch on the Breakfast Club YouTube channel as well too Top two moments for you from the interview Top two moments for me
Starting point is 01:11:17 Drop one of Clues bombs from my guy Zeke from New Era I really enjoyed Zeke's question I enjoyed all the brothers from Detroit's questions I really enjoyed Zeke's question. I enjoyed all the brothers from Detroit's questions, but I enjoyed Zeke's question a lot. And I don't know. I got to think about it. Zeke is the first one that comes to mind though, but I got to think about the other one.
Starting point is 01:11:35 For me, it was the black church conversation. When you asked her, why doesn't she speak directly to black people? With Pastor Kenlock, Reverend Solomon Kenlock Jr. The reparations question, even though I feel like she still didn't directly answer, but I think it was good to hear her say it should be studied. The Trump being locked up. I love how she was like, I'm gonna let the court handle that. Like, baby, I'm gonna let them take care of that.
Starting point is 01:11:57 I had a lot of moments give her so much flack for what happened at the border. And I think that it was good how you push back on the question and how she had to answer it. Let's take a listen. Doesn't the Biden administration have to take some blame for the border, though? A lot of the blame? Because, I mean, the first three years, y'all did get a lot of things wrong with the border. Charlamagne, within hours of being inaugurated the first bill we passed before we did the inflation reduction act before we did
Starting point is 01:12:29 the bipartisan infrastructure act before we did the the the safer communities act to deal with gun violence first thing we dropped was a bill to fix the broken immigration system which by the way trump did not fix when he was president. You can look at every step along the way. We then tightened up the asylum application process. We then worked with what we needed to do to secure ports of entry. We did a number of things, including what we did to try and get that border security bill passed. And then also an executive order that has actually reduced significantly the number of illegal crossings and tightened up what needs to happen in between ports of entry. Now, I like to hear her in this interview talk about the border, because even the way she said your name in opening of that response, it was like, y'all better stop playing with me.
Starting point is 01:13:20 I'm tired of having to tell y'all this. I think that that energy and that aggression is needed from her right now. And, you know, there's another part of the conversation where I even said to her, why do you not push back on them labeling you? The borders are because everybody thinks that's her job. That's actually not her job. Like Biden deputized her with a diplomatic mission to evaluate the factors that cause people to leave their home countries in the first place the secretary of homeland security uh whose name i can't pronounce ala ala alessandro mayorkas uh he's the person that manages the border so how she's become the fall person for the border i i
Starting point is 01:13:56 don't know i know you so well that uh we have that clip let's take a listen congress has to act to fix the immigration system and it has been broken for a long time congress has to act to fix the immigration system, and it has been broken for a long time. Congress has to act, but it does not help when finally a bipartisan group got together to fix it. And Donald Trump told them, hold on, don't do that because it won't.

Three days of music and then the boxing event. What was going on in the world at the time made this fight as important that anything else is going on on the planet. My grandfather laid on the ropes and let George Foreman basically just punch himself out. Welcome to Rumble, the story of a world in transformation.

Starting point is 01:19:42 Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. It won't help me, politically. Why do you allow them to call you the Borders are when that's not even your, that wasn't your role? I'm not giving him permission for that. You're right. But I mean you don't push back on it because that wasn't your role? Fact checkers have made that clear. Look, if I responded to every name he called me I wouldn't be focused on the things that actually helped the American people and that's my focus and um one of
Starting point is 01:20:14 the things I will say too is in the beginning of the interview like just as a person that interviews I was watching just your strategy on it I love how you set the tone from the beginning where she couldn't be scripted if she wanted to in this interview because you called her out on it I love how you set the tone from the beginning where she couldn't be scripted if she wanted to in this interview because you called her out on it early so it made her have to like really talk and even her explanation of so many different things I think she talked directly to people regular and people were able to get it one of the things you guys also went into was the disinformation um that is just out there on the internet one of the biggest things that we saw recently with that was the Janet Jackson conversation where people were saying, oh, Janet Jackson and her brother allegedly don't support Kamala because Kamala prosecuted Michael Jackson. And, you know, that whole narrative around her with black men in prosecution.
Starting point is 01:20:54 Let's take a listen to that. Quick question. There's a rumor that Janet Jackson is mad at you because you prosecuted her brother, the late great Michael Jackson. That's on that's on the Internet. Clear that up for people. That's just not true. I know. On either count. Oh, she's not mad at you? Well, I for people. That's just not true. I know. On either count.
Starting point is 01:21:06 Oh, she's not mad at you? Well, I mean, I don't know. I don't know. I have not talked to her, but certainly it's not true about her brother. And we all... Go ahead.
Starting point is 01:21:14 You had to see the look in her eyes. She had no idea what I was talking about. Really? Well, I love that for her because it'd be... Stuff be so loud on the internet and I love that she had no idea,
Starting point is 01:21:22 but I will say this stemmed from so y'all know um well y'all i'm talking to the listeners whoever and back in 2003 when uh michael jackson uh was uh charged with child molestation and the administer administering an intoxicating agent people were saying that because she was the district attorney in san francisco and he was prosecuted or whatever and santa barbara they were trying to connect it to but she had no direct involvement in that whatsoever but I thought that that was a good thing that you brought that up to her because that was big because of the names involved but you
Starting point is 01:21:51 also brought up Obama because that's been a big thing as well too and I think the way you asked the question to her about him stepping on her rollout I was like oh I want to hear how she answers this let's take a listen do you feel like President Obama stepped on your rollout because I know you've been working on this blackmail agenda for a long time. And you've been doing the outreach, you know, which was the Opportunity Economy Tour and things like that. But then he made the statements that he made last week. So everybody thinks this is a reaction to that. Oh, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:22:17 I mean, you just have to know. Obviously not. I've been doing this for quite some time, including before I was running for president. Love to hear. Love to hear that she's not bothered. But I also think it's important for her to be able to talk about stuff like that, because for a while, a lot of us felt like she couldn't talk about stuff when people that are, you know, before her. So like the Obamas or the Bidens, when things happen, people feel like she has to stay silent. So I love the fact that she was just willing to answer and say, no, I didn't care about that.
Starting point is 01:22:42 I'm cool. We good over here. Yeah, I just know how people would see that blackmail agenda, especially after the comments that Obama made. But if you've been paying attention, she's been doing blackmail outreach for a long, long, long, long, long time. And I know for a fact that they were working on this agenda way before
Starting point is 01:22:59 Obama made those comments. And shout out to Iceberg Bezo. I thought he came up and asked a really good question, too. We don't have the time to play it, but he had basically asked her like, why now? Like, this all seems fake. Like, you just want our vote? And she clarified what you just said. That they've been working on this stuff. This is not anything
Starting point is 01:23:16 new. And I know we've had him up there. He's talked about, you know, why he's weary of politicians and certain things. So I thought that was great to include him too. Bezo told me something after the town hall yesterday. If that's something he wants to share publicly, he can. But, yeah, Bezo, I'll just say Bezo thoroughly enjoyed the conversation. And, you know, Bezo was very opinionated about the vice president beforehand.
Starting point is 01:23:39 So I really just want to drop on a clues box for Detroit, man. Detroit is such a special, you know, beautiful black city, man. Salute to Reverend Solomon Kinloch Jr. Salute to Zeke from New Era. Salute to Iceware Bezo. Salute to Eric Thomas. Salute to Sharon, who's the PD at WJLB in Detroit. Salute to Bush, man.
Starting point is 01:23:59 And salute to Chanel Dominique. Drop on a Clues Bonds for Chanel. I hit Chanel and asked her to bring a room together at some of Detroit's finest and she did that man so salute to Chanel and Sharon for really really putting off for Detroit yesterday at the Audio Town Hall
Starting point is 01:24:16 yeah so congratulations on that my mom said that this was one of Kamala's best interviews so and I think a lot of people feel that way so shout out to you for handling that well that's the mess You're welcome I don't trust you when you're nice I really don't
Starting point is 01:24:31 I almost started to say something But Before after the hour We need the Indiana State Police to come to the front of the congregation We'd like to have a word with them please It's the Breakfast Club Don't be out here acting like a donkey Hee haw bitchhaw bitch hee-haw it's time for donkey of the day i'm a big boy i could take it if you feel i deserve it ain't no big deal i know charlamagne you gotta go have some
Starting point is 01:24:54 funny sweet salad smell gotta say something you may not agree with doesn't mean i mean it who's getting that donkey that donkey that donkey donkey donkey donkey donkey of the day right here the breakfast club bitches you can call't. Donkey of the day right there. It's a breakfast club, bitches. You can call me the donkey of the day, but like, I mean no harm. Yes, donkey of the day for Wednesday, October 16th goes to the Indiana State Police in Indiana. You all must really like doing paperwork, okay? In fact, before we move on, I want to salute all the cops out there who have bigger fish to fry. All the law enforcement officials on this planet who don't stick to the rivers and lakes they are used to because they too busy chasing waterfalls.
Starting point is 01:25:32 We don't discuss that enough. OK, TLC told us not to chase waterfalls. But sometimes those rivers and lakes are too small and we don't need to stick to them. We need to chase the big ass waterfalls. And there is a lot of cops that understand that. What do I mean when I say that? Well, if I was a police officer and I pulled somebody over for something petty, something
Starting point is 01:25:52 small, I don't even want to call it a petty crime. Just like an infraction. Like failing to pay fines related to minor traffic violations or parking tickets. If I was a cop and I pulled someone over for that, I would be like, hey man, go home, pay your ticket. If you don't cop and I pulled someone over for that, I would be like, hey, man, go home, pay your ticket. If you don't pay your ticket, I'm locking your ass up next time I catch you. OK, there's just so many nonviolent, low level infractions that usually end up with people
Starting point is 01:26:14 being jailed. But it's usually things people shouldn't be in jail for. And that is why I'm giving the Indiana State Police donkey at a day to day because it was a dark and lonely night. A state trooper was patrolling the southwestern part of the state when he spotted a 51-year-old man named John McKee driving a little Jeep with no lights. That is a reason to pull somebody over, but there's a lot more to the story. So let's go to WAVE News for the report, please. The man was 51-year-old John McKee from Vincennes, Indiana, and he was arrested for driving a Power Wheels Jeep at night while
Starting point is 01:26:45 under the influence of marijuana and meth. Now, at the beginning of this video, you can see McKee pull off the road in that blue Power Wheels Jeep. The officer in the video then stops him, soon performs several field sobriety tests, which McKee fails. He's then arrested and taken to the hospital for several blood tests. And take a listen to his reaction when he finds out he's being charged with DUI. DUI, that's still a vehicle. Are you kidding me? No, I'm not.
Starting point is 01:27:12 That is still a vehicle. I'm talking about my own. You talked to the wrong person. Oh, man. Oh, man, that's all I have to say about that. Mickey was later charged with operating a vehicle with a prior conviction, which is a felony. He's since been released. Pretty crazy. Yeah, it was. All right. Thanks so much, Ward.
Starting point is 01:27:32 Now, I know what you're thinking. How the hell did he fit into a power wheel at his big age? OK, there's two of those in my house. My nine year old and six year old have one. And if I could sit my thick ass in one of those power wheels and drive it, I would. They look so fun, but I can't. So how the hell was John McKee able to do that? That's number one. Number two, I know what you're thinking. What grade of weed was he smoking? I want some. Or was it the Meff and Mary all I need combo platter that made him say,
Starting point is 01:27:58 let me get in this power wheel and hit the road. Okay. He must've been so high that the power wheel looked like an actual Jeep to him. It must've looked like an actual car. Okay. That's why he got in it and took off down the road. I've been high like this before. Okay. When I was much, much, much younger. And when you this high, you can be speeding and think you going slow or you can be going slow and think you speeding. I wonder did the Indiana state police ask him, sir sir do you know why we stopped you because the reality is they don't even know why they stopped him if you stop somebody in a power wheel you got to be wondering what the hell's going on I would have pained is paid to see that John McKee was probably so high he had no clue he was even being stopped but anyway listen Indiana State Police I
Starting point is 01:28:40 understand locking him up on the drug charges I understand locking him up on the public intoxication I even understand him getting locked up drug charges. I understand locking him up on the public intoxication. I even understand him getting locked up for operating a non-street legal vehicle on public roads. But where I draw the line is a DUI. Okay, giving a man a DUI because he's driving a power wheel high off meth and weed is insanity. This man posed no threat to the public. What was he doing? Seven miles per hour in a 55? The whole point of DUIs is people are drunk operating vehicles that can actually kill you.
Starting point is 01:29:14 I don't even think power wheels go fast enough to kill bugs that run into the windshield. Okay, the worst part of this story is that some poor child no longer has a power wheel's jeep because I'm sure it was impounded. Imagine being a cop doing paperwork for this. This is why I said earlier, sometimes you have to not stick to the rivers and lakes that you're used to and chase the waterfalls. This arrest was a lake. Okay, more like a river that somebody cried and someone else should have built a bridge over and the Indiana State Police
Starting point is 01:29:37 should have got over it because this was nonsense. Please give the Indiana State Police the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Yee-haw. When you sober up, how do you explain that?
Starting point is 01:30:04 You don't. You try to get high again. You get high again to forget the stupid All the things you write Like what? A goddamn power wheel It really don't make no sense Just like my microphone falling off Just now don't make no sense
Starting point is 01:30:18 I'm gonna fix it though Microphone falling off, you falling off It's crazy Anyway Yesterday we had an audio town hall with the vice president, Madam Kamala Harris. And one thing I loved about the town hall is the talkback feature that we use. You know, the talkback feature. I told you, if you go to the iHeartRadio app, go to Breakfast Club Podcast, tap the microphone.
Starting point is 01:30:43 You could have sent in your questions. We had thousands and thousands of questions. Definitely couldn't get to all of them within an hour. But I do want to thank everybody who used the Talkback feature. And I want to thank everybody from Detroit who was there. I shouted them out earlier. Pastor Kinloch, Zeke from New Era, Iceweb Vessel, Eric Thomas, Sharon, the program director, Bushman, all of those individuals. But I want to know what you, the listeners, thought of the conversation. Just from hearing it. What did you think of the audio town hall? What did you think of what you heard this morning on the Breakfast Club from the Madam Vice President? Can we open the phone lines, LL Cool Bay?
Starting point is 01:31:19 We should. I was going to read you a text my mom said. What did she say? She said, Charlene yeah 1-800 what'd you say i was going i was going to read you a text my mom said i thought that she said she said charlene charlene has done the best interview of kamala harris that i've seen yet thank god for charlene long with him and all of his crew i know that's right charlene did she say did she talk about how handsome i am did she say anything about that no i think she i think she missed that part you know she wear glasses she might not have that's's not true. She's told me I'm a very handsome man.
Starting point is 01:31:46 And I know she said that to get in the text. And I know you hating. And I know you don't want to relay that message. Okay? But it's okay. It's okay. 1-800-585-1051. Reach out and touch us right now.

Charlamagne Tha God, Lauren LaRosa, DJ Envy is off today. And you know, Jess Hilarious is still on maternity leave. But we're talking about the audio town
Starting point is 01:32:29 hall. We the people that I did yesterday with Madam Vice President Kamala Harris. Salute to everybody who used the talkback feature to submit your questions. But we want to hear from y'all, the listeners right now. You know, just want to know what you thought about the information I presented during the audio town hall yesterday. Who's on the line, Red? Hey, good morning. What's going on, LL Cool Bay and Charlamagne? Good morning.
Starting point is 01:32:53 What's happening? What's your name? Hey, my name's Chan, man. It's actually Chandler. But, hey, real quick, I just want to say, Charlamagne, I thought you did a fantastic job on that interview. Great talking points. You touched on the points that I feel like a lot of us are thinking about. Felt like you kept the composure, but you still were touching on serious topics. I thought you did a great job. I started listening to it last night when I got off work and listened to it again this morning.
Starting point is 01:33:20 So, yeah, I just thought you did a fantastic job. What did you think of the substance of the conversation, though? Did it move you in any way? The substance was fantastic. I thought Kamala did a great job answering the question. One of my favorite parts was when you said she was scripted and she said, no, I'm disciplined. And that, you know, because that's something we think about. Also, you brought up the topic of the san francisco prosecutor situation and uh also the obama step on question that was a fantastic thing too you know i just thought
Starting point is 01:33:52 it was a great interview and i really think this helped the campaign a whole lot so thank you brother i appreciate it man thank you for listening absolutely could i throw in a quick plug of course new children's book by Chandler G. Hayes. Langston makes his Cooler Made Adventure. It's on Amazon, Barnes & Noble. Just about a little boy that starts a Cooler Made or a drink stand. Oh, absolutely. Thank you, brother. Appreciate you.
Starting point is 01:34:16 Good morning. Who's this? Trey from Norfolk. Trey, what's up, Trey? What's happening? What's good, Charlotte? What's good, Laura? Good morning. Good morning to the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:34:29 What you thought of the audio town hall with Vice President Kamala Harris last night? I think it was awesome. You know, she did a really good job asking her some very pointed questions and not letting her off the hook with some of the things that she's been sticking to her script on. I do think, though, she could benefit from stepping back from a lot of the political stuff like you said the script and stuff we've heard it a lot and as an independent that's not what's ringing home to us like even after the audio town hall that's not she asked a lot of questions that that we had but i think just having a regular conversation like look this is what the heck is going on with our country get away away from the political talks, because we hear that every four to eight years. We had Obama, we had us so hyped about voting for him.
Starting point is 01:35:10 When we hear from him, it wasn't always just the political points, but it was actual conversations and it was just actual talking that was had to the community outside of just the black community. And then when she does that, that's when she'll see that hype and that momentum that she had post and pre-Democratic Convention come back again, and especially when she'll start seeing that reflected in the polls. But that's just my two cents. I think you did a wonderful job.
Starting point is 01:35:37 That's a great point. I wonder about that, right? Because I be thinking to myself sometimes, did Obama put too much sauce on it? Because, you know, his whole campaign was about hope and change and i don't know if you saw him last week in pennsylvania he was basically saying like look man you know a lot of people don't want to vote for us because they feel like it's not going to make a difference and he said you're right they're not we're not going to eliminate poverty we're not going to get rid of all the problems with race we're not going to prevent every bad thing from happening in this country but But we are people who care, who can make your life a little bit better.
Starting point is 01:36:08 To me, that's more of a realistic message than, you know, we can change everything and hope people can believe in it. That part of it, that's just the politics part, right? We heard that every 48 years that, no, we can change positive hope and all that good stuff. And I'm trying to, you know, not curse anything like that that but what i'm saying is just more so having like the swag like if me and you was talking on the streets about you know what's going on in the political environment we're not going to stick to a script we're going to have a regular conversation like look this was going on with the border this was going on economy and that is what you needed i don't the soft part of it the whole part of it that's
Starting point is 01:36:45 good for like no middle america but for us us independents us in the middle and people that's really really focusing outside of the political talking points just have a conversation see if those people get away from the talking points and just really have that conversation i think when she goes and maybe if she comes back from the breakfast club or when she goes to Joe Rogan, if she does that, that's what's going to help her versus just the same old, I'm middle
Starting point is 01:37:13 class. Get with me and get back to having real conversations. I got you. Thank you, my brother. I think that's why it resonated so much with a lot of people. The time she did do that, it was like, ooh, this is refreshing. she's a person she knows what's going on 1-800-585-1051 we're taking your calls on the audio town hall we the people with madam vice president kamala harris that we did yesterday on iheart radio it's the breakfast

Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Yep, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne Tha God, Lauren LaRosa, a.k.a. LL Cool Bay. DJ Envy is off today. Jess Hilarious is on maternity leave. But we are here talking about the We The People audio town hall that I did yesterday with Madam Vice President Kamala Harris on iHeartRadio. We're taking your phone calls on the situation on the call on the audio town hall.
Starting point is 01:38:15 Who we got on the phone, right? Good morning. Lenasia. Oh, it's Lenasia. What's up, Lenasia? How are you? I'm good. How are you?
Starting point is 01:38:23 I'm blessed black and highly favored. So I enjoyed the interview. I just feel like she should have went more in depth with things like telling us how she thinks the court is going to handle him if they prosecute him. Let us know, like, exactly what she mean by like things like just get more in depth with things it seems like she's like afraid of talking to us like it seems like she's afraid of opening up to us i think she's like i think yeah it's certain situations that they don't really go deep on there was a part of the conversation where i even asked her why are you why can't y'all say trump needs to be in jail but trump has no problem saying he's gonna lock all y'all say Trump needs to be in jail, but Trump has no problem saying he's going to lock all y'all up?
Starting point is 01:39:08 Yeah. Right. Yeah, that's a little strange. I should have said more. What are you going to do more about getting the illegal immigrants that's hurting us out? What are you going to do about what's in here now? What are you going to do if you get elected and Donald Trump starts this riot again? Like, what are you going to do to help us?
Starting point is 01:39:27 Like, you're telling us it's not going to happen, but how? Well, this is just one conversation. She's got a lot more. She's sitting down with Fox News today. So we'll hear a lot more things over the next few weeks, I'm sure. Thank you for calling. Do you feel like she's going to be as uncomfortable with Fox News, though, as she was with you? I feel like Fox News, is is she gonna be back buttoned up
Starting point is 01:39:46 I don't know it's a good question You know what it is This is just my personal opinion I think that she operates very well When she's angry If that makes sense You know what I'm saying When you say something that moves

Starting point is 01:47:58 And I had to reach out to my Tiny Dash reps and see what was going on over there for life. All right. That's what we're going to talk about when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne Tha God, Lauren LaRosa, DJ Envy is off today. Jess Hilarious
Starting point is 01:48:16 is on maternity leave, but it's time for Jess with the best with Lauren LaRosa. News is real. Jessica Lawrence, Jessica Robin Moore, Jess don't do no lie. She don't spell nobody. Worldwide Jets. Worldwide Mets.
Starting point is 01:48:33 On The Breakfast Club. She's a coach of shoes. With Lauren, Lauren LaRosa. I'm back. And I got the Mets. Talk to me. So really quick before we get into the rumors. I'm sorry. Before we get into the rumors. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:48:45 Before we get into just with the mess, I want to just send some love to Ananda Lewis, who was a former VJ at MTV. She had announced a few years ago that she was dealing with cancer. And recently she sat down with CNN in a discussion about cancer and her cancer journey and she revealed that her cancer has now progressed from stage three to stage four because she decided not to undergo a double mast mastectomy um and basically like she she's always talked about like being you know afraid of like the radiation and just some of the different things that go with the treatment so i just wanted to send her some love i've been through a cancer battle with my mom, and I was so scared. It took me about maybe three weeks, two weeks to convince her to go through with treatments because she was very scared of what it would do.
Starting point is 01:49:33 So, you know, it happens. But my mom was stage four, and my mom is alive and well today. So I'm sending her a prayer. And, you know, if she hears this or whoever, it is not over. The fight is not won i mean the fight can be won because god has the last say so and i know that firsthand so definitely sending healing energy that nanda lua yeah i wanted to take the time to do that now yesterday life jennings uh posted something that picked up pretty viral he had posted that he reached out to tiny
Starting point is 01:50:00 desk last month and they told him that he was not a big enough celebrity for their show. You know Tiny Desk is a show where you do a lot of performances. Absolutely. He says, so thank you to Unplugged for still believing in me. So I guess he has an Unplugged, which is kind of the same thing, but Tiny Desk has become a lot more popular. He must have that coming down the line. People were going crazy. I know
Starting point is 01:50:20 Shave Room posted like a Don't Forget Life Jennings had the hits tribute to him. People were arguing whether he should have been given the Tiny Desk because the music is good, whether he shouldn't have been given it. I reached out to Tiny Desk because I wanted to know like I, you know, if Life Jennings is there to perform, I think the music would be good, too, if he's up to it. And so why not? tiny desk and a rep told me that the npr music team curates the tiny desk concert lineup using their editorial discretion to ensure that the music is this includes discovery and inclusion they showcase emerging talent as often as well as new as what emerging new talent as well as known artists the team gets pitched hundreds of hundreds of artists both big and small being a big celebrity is no guarantee to get in the tiny desk but it doesn't disqualify you either often it's about the timing of an artist's career and their schedules they said that their team is
Starting point is 01:51:08 small but limited capacity to film they do about 10 shows per month and unfortunately they couldn't accommodate they can't accommodate every every artist that wants to perform so it seems like he did reach out i did double back and say was he specifically told he was not big enough at the moment um no response on that yet but it seems like they're just saying they couldn't accommodate them they have the other things planned so it sounds to me like somebody at tiny desk just wasn't uh culturally aware of of of life jennings catalog that's all and i think now that you know he put that out there and they're seeing the reaction from people they're like whoa maybe we messed up maybe that's how they are feeling because i feel the same way i'm like if he can get up there and the mic can be on
Starting point is 01:51:48 that's gonna be a great tiny desk his music is amazing yeah like jenny can sing his ass off and and he's a great live performer if you've ever seen life i mean i i think i've seen life live this is back in the day but now he he's he gets busy well we'll see what happens with that i'll be following that to see because remember remember, the last person who posted something virally about Tiny Desk was Juvie. And it happened. But it was the opposite, right? Juvie didn't know who the hell Tiny Desk was. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:52:16 It was the opposite. Now, this next little bit of this segment, I'm going to call Sis with the Sports. Look at the Bob, Charlotte. Sis with the Sports. You know the sports broadcasters always have the good Bobs. That Bob don't look secure. Whoa, relax. It is very secure. If you didn't have those headphones on, it would fall off. Shout out to Jamie Ray. Very secure.
Starting point is 01:52:32 Devontae Adams in sports news. This trade has been all over headlines. It's been called one of the splashiest trades in team history. The wide receiver was traded to the Jets on Tuesday. This trade will mean that he gets to reunite with aaron rogers and espn has called them the most dangerous duo so people feel
Starting point is 01:52:51 like this is the jets trying to stack their hand for a super bowl and they're people are also wondering when his debut is going to be because he was out with a hamstring injury he sat out like three games but now it's been reported that he's feeling much better. So people want to know when that's going to happen. It is being reported that he'll probably debut with the team Sunday against the Steelers. Now, the controversy around this, or not the controversy, but just some conversation around it. I like to always get to the T in sports. Is that this might have been, people feel like the hamstring, the whole hamstring injury And sitting out And then the fact that He lowered his salary cap this season
Starting point is 01:53:27 To 3.21 million Was because he wanted to get to the Jets That was all just one big play So We'll see what happens Brad I know you a big Jets fan You excited about this? I'm excited
Starting point is 01:53:39 I mean the Raiders were bad So anybody want to get up out of there Well go ahead I mean Adams is nice to have But I don't think it ensures that Jets are going to win the Super Bowl. Dang, even as a fan? No? I don't know, so let me know. It's something nice to have, but it's not going to make a big difference.
Starting point is 01:53:53 I mean, you still need pieces on defense. The offensive line is bad. Yeah, and it sounds good. Y'all acting like Aaron Rodgers is not 73 years old. Yeah, that's true. Okay? Devontae Adams, he a little long in the tooth as well. Even though I would have loved to have him on the Cowboys.
Starting point is 01:54:08 But being that he's not a Cowboy, I don't give a damn about this trade. The owner, you the only person. Because even I had to care. And I don't even, y'all know, I don't even have, well, I was going to say I don't have a team. But now the Eagles are my team. So, what? Anyway. Well, that makes sense.
Starting point is 01:54:23 You are from Delaware. So, you should be an Eagles fan. A mention as well to Amari Cooper was traded to the Buffalo Bills. That was a big one that people were all excited about as well, too. That's a man that we should have never let go in Dallas, but that's a whole other conversation. It seems like the Cowboys don't know what they should or shouldn't be doing. And you know what? You know what?
Starting point is 01:54:39 You're absolutely right, but you're not allowed to say that. Absolutely right, because I'm cis with the sports. I'm cis with the sports. No, only if you're not. That's like saying the N-word and you're not black. Okay, don't talk not allowed to say that. Absolutely right, because I'm cis with the sports. I'm cis with the sports. No, only if you're not. That's like saying the N-word and you're not black. Okay, don't talk about us Cowboys fans. Only we can talk about us. Don't even hear me say Cowboys no more.
Starting point is 01:54:53 Now, the Super Bowl. Speaking of, in Super Bowl news. So, it was announced yesterday. Roger Goodell said that the NFL is going to be continuing their relationship with Jay-Z and Roc Nation. I feel like we should drop a bomb for that. That is a major. You know, I mean jay-z's been doing an amazing job the deal was struck back originally in uh 2019 they struck the deal with the nfl rock nation did and it was valued at 25 million dollars over five years there is no report right now on what this new one may be worth but i
Starting point is 01:55:20 can only imagine because he's done a lot for the Super Bowl since 2019. It was announced yesterday, too, that the Super Bowl 2028 is going to be in Atlanta. You know why I'm excited about that? Why? That's just enough time for me to learn how to strip because inflation is hard. Girl, you're going to be. When is it? What year is this? Why you got to go to age?
