It's the breakfast club Good morning. Good morning. Everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious. Charlamagne the guy We are the breakfast club Lauren's filling in for Jess and let's get in some front page news club Lauren's filling in for Jess and let's get in some front page news. Alright now some quick football. Tomorrow we have games on Saturday and Sunday. Now on Saturday the Texas take on the Kansas City Chiefs at 4.30. The Washington Commanders take on the Detroit Lions at 8 p.m.

And on Sunday the Rams take on the Eagles at 3. And the Ravens take on the Bills at 6.30. Who want to bet that the Texas upset the Chiefs? Huh? The Texans? Who want to bet that the Texans upset the Chiefs? Huh? The Texans? Who want to bet that? I like the job. Nah, I think the Chiefs gonna get it.

Oh, God. They do. I didn't know where the location of the game was. No, they're playing Delaware. Is it Delaware or the Eagles? Delaware, Dirty Birds. Delaware, Dirty Birds. First of all. Jesus. First of all. Alright,. All right. Good morning, Morgan.

Good morning. Good morning. Y'all did we speak too soon about the hostage deal? I really hope not because well, the Israeli prime minister's office claims Hamas is backing out of some of its agreements in the hostage release deal. Speaking on the Today Show, White House National Security Council spokesman, John Kirby said he's confident that last minute problems can be addressed. He also said that he's confident Show, White House National Security Council spokesman, John Kirby said he's confident

that last minute problems can be addressed. He also spoke about who gets the credit and how soon American hostages will be released. Let's hear more from White House National Security Council spokesman, John Kirby. We're aware of these issues that the Prime Minister has raised today, this afternoon, their time,

and we're working through that. Our team on the ground is actually working with him and his team to iron all this out and flatten it. We're confident that we'll be able to solve these last-minute issues and get it moving and that this ceasefire can take place starting on Sunday. We've got to stop worrying about this whole credit business and who gets credit for what. There's plenty of credit to go around. The hostages don't care about who's claiming credit. The people in Gaza don't care. We hope this whole credit business and have to politicize things because they're always thinking about future elections.

They're thinking about midterms. They're thinking about, you know, the next presidential election in four years. So of course they, either party would want to get the credit for it, but you get more accomplished when you stop worrying about who gets credit for things. Correct. Fair enough.

The Palestinian Militant Group made the ceasefire hostage deal with Israel on Wednesday that would include Hamas releasing dozens of hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners and humanitarian aid. Yeah, Hamas is supposedly, according to the Israeli Prime Minister's Office, a statement says that Hamas is reneging on understandings and creating a last-minute crisis that is preventing an agreement. Now the statement.

That's coming from the Israeli Prime Minister's office. Yes, it is. I wouldn't be surprised if a deal is already done with the Prime Minister's office and putting that out to the press so the deal actually doesn't officially get done until Trump is in office and then Trump would get more of the credit. So the statement does go on to say the Israeli cabinet will not convene until the mediators notify Israel that Hamas has Accepted all elements of the agreement So again, we'll continue to watch that it is the weekend and hopefully by Monday when I come in and check in with y'all

We will have an agreement signed sealed signed sealed and delivered to the Morgan to the off Monday Okay, well Tuesday. Well, yeah Monday is a holiday. We got an inauguration and we got MLK day All right, so outgoing inauguration before MLK day. Wow Morgan. Give me a black heart. Give it up. Come on Okay, so outgoing attorney general Merrick Garland says the DOJ is committed to guaranteeing an independence of Department from both the White House and Congress concerning law enforcement investigations and prosecutions. Now, Merrick said the department has been wrongly criticized and politically motivated. In his farewell speech, he emphasized the importance of an independent justice department and he praised public servants and law enforcement who have faced threats.

Let's hear more from Attorney General Merrick Garland. We know that only an independent justice department can protect the safety and civil rights of everyone in our country. I know that you have faced unfounded attacks simply for doing your job. At the very same time, you have risked your lives to protect our country from a range of foreign and domestic threats. The story that has been told by some outside of this building about what has happened inside of it is wrong. You have worked to pursue justice, not politics. So, yes, of course this comes as President-elect Trump has repeatedly attacked the justice system as politicized and corrupt.

Looks like we are running out of time a little bit, but I want to talk a little bit about TikTok. So, the Supreme Court will release one last opinion today regarding the upcoming TikTok ban. The announcement was posted on the court's website homepage saying the court may announce opinions on the homepage beginning at 10 a.m. The court will not take the bench. This notice is highly unusual, as justices usually give several days notice before announcing their opinions and typically read them aloud in the courtroom. The TikTok app is set to be banned in the U.S. on Sunday, but the president Biden's administration has indicated they will not enforce the ban. So it's going to be up to President-elect Trump as to what happens going forward

with TikTok, whether or not the ban will be enforced. So we'll talk more about that. All right. All right. Thank you, Morgan. All right. Thank you. Talk to you guys at seven.

Um, yeah, we'll check in on what's going on on out West with the wildfires. All right. Everybody else get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. Again, 800-585-1051 is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on the breakfast block Hello who's this? Hey, good morning. This is james calling from north carolina james. What's up, brother? Get off your chest Uh, yeah, uh the other day I watched that ditty documentary on peacock

And I was wondering if y'all ever had GD on as a guest for an interview? Who was that? That was Diddy Bodyguard? Yeah, Diddy Bodyguard. No, we never have. He's been on the Art of Dialogue a bunch of times though. Yeah, but I mean, I think y'all should have him on as a guest, man. Because I know y'all ain't afraid to ask him certain questions. And he sure enough ain't afraid to answer them. I don't think there's nothing we can ask him that Artie Dialogue hasn't already asked.

Yeah, that hasn't been out as yet. And remember, Diddy still got to go to trial and we're not the judge and jury in that case to me. That's how I feel anyway. Yeah, on the documentary, I had no idea that Albee Shaw almost died some years back. Oh yeah, he was in a coma right? Yeah, he was in a coma for a little bit. Yeah. I had no idea that I'll be sure almost died some years back. Oh, yeah A little bit. Yeah He claimed that somebody said him up put him in that position

Well, I didn't check out the documentary maybe I will this weekend brother, okay You do hello, who's this? Okay, Keith what up get it off your chest James. You too. Hello, who's this? This is Keith. Keith, what up? Get it off your chest, Keith. Hey, I think y'all should have a release, Wendy Williams Day on Wednesday. Every Wednesday until the woman is released. What's up, guys? You know, it's funny, I told Charlamagne that that would be dope, but like Charlamagne reminded

me, Wendy ain't got internet. All she got is that phone, so it'd be difficult to talk about anything besides that, you know what I mean? Yeah, and listen, as much as we would love to hear Wendy Williams talking about pop culture topics, like she's dealing with a real personal issue right now, being trapped in that conservatorship. So first things first, people. Yes.

All right, I appreciate it. Thank you for the idea, though. Nah, I thought about the same thing. Wednesday with Wendy, Wendy Wednesdays, a Wednesday with Wendy. I'm about to say.

It kind of has a Scarface vibe to it, which I thought was very interesting. Listen to the I Am Rapaport Stereo podcast on the iHeartRadioApp Apple Podcast and wherever

you get your podcast. Morning everybody it's DJ Envy Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to Jess with the Mess with Laura LaRosa. The news is real, whether it's Jess Hilarious, Jessica Robin Moore, Jess don't do no lying. She don't scare nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide mess. All righty, y'all. So yesterday we had Wendy on air and it caused a lot of reactions, of course.

Now one of the reactions it's coming from an attorney her name is Roberta Kaplan. She spoke to TMZ and she said that people should not be fooled by Wendy Williams and how good Wendy Williams sounded when she called into our show yesterday because Wendy Williams does still have dementia and with dementia you have some good days and you have some bad days so because she had a good day yesterday when she did that interview basically she's's saying don't judge her state right now based off of that. Now in this story, Roberta is listed

as Wendy Williams' attorney, but I did wanna clarify that she is the attorney that is assigned to the case with A&E. So Wendy Williams' conservator is in a legal dispute with A&E over to Wendy Williams' doc, and Roberta Kaplan is the attorney for that situation, specifically.

And she's basically also making it clear that at the time that Wendy Williams was put into the conservatorship, it was based off of like a health evaluation. And based off of that health evaluation, she says that a judge deemed that Wendy couldn't make her own decisions. And because of this is something that Wendy will need care for for the rest of her life, they felt like what Wendy is

going through right now is what was best for her. So she wanted to remind people of that. I just want to reiterate what you said Lauren. Roberta Kaplan isn't Wendy's lawyer. She's only representing Wendy and her lawsuit against Andy for producing the documentary where is Wendy Williams? Correct. And that lawyer was hired by her guardian, Sabrina Morrissey. Yes. And I guess like if you're being technical, it's like if you're hired by the conservative who represents Wendy now at this point, you could argue yes on Wendy's attorney, but-

She's allegedly on Sabrina's side, right? Yeah, I think the way that it's being reported is unfair to the situation because it's being reported as if this is her everyday attorney who would know her enough to speak for her outside of just the health of our U.S. attorney. So this is not Wendy's everyday attorney? This is only attorney that what I'm reading and got for a any alleged 100% not from everything that I am understanding and also think about that right the the any lawsuit that Sabrina Morris he filed

Sabrina is claiming that Wendy was not and is not capable for consenting to the terms of the documentary contract and no one acting in Williams best interest would allow her to be portrayed in the demeaning manner in which she is portrayed in the trailer for the documentary so it would behoove the attorney Robert Kaplan Roberta Kaplan to say Wendy has dementia. Yeah, that Wendy's not. But in the same turn if you're supposed to be watching over her exactly and you're saying that they did her dirty or that she wasn't in the right state of mind to do that contract Reena you were the guardian when all that was the guardian when that happened

I'm 2022 yeah, what is Sabrina being fought like she wouldn't be doing her job Sabrina more if she was the one that was in control of Wendy at that time Yeah She must be one of those people who don't have Wendy's best entries because like we just said you've been our guardian since 2022 so why would you allow her to sign the document if you didn't think she was capable of consenting to the terms? And let me ask one other question.

She said that maybe Wendy had a good day, even speaking Wendy, for a couple of days, correct? And she's been a couple of weeks, and she's been clear-minded and sound the same as she sounded yesterday, correct? It's not like I talked to her every minute of the day, but yeah, to me. It's a lot of good days.

Yeah, and I think what also too has to be thought about here as well is the fact that when you have something like dementia, yes, there's a scale. It's all over the place, and we do know that, right? But I think the conversation we had with Wendy yesterday wasn't about whether she has dementia or not. It was whether, just because she has dementia, at whatever level it's at or isn't, you know what I mean? Should she be in the position she's in

where she feels locked away? Well she can't go, she has to get permission to go to her dad's birthday party. Or she needs permission to go to the store to buy a hairbrush. Or she needs permission to go to Sephora to get her dad a gift. But I haven't heard Wendy say she's diagnosed

with any of these things. And that's another thing. Wendy's never told her that she's been diagnosed with any of these things. Yeah, I haven't heard it from her mouth either. But Graves' disease, right? Yeah, she's talked about having Graves' disease. Well, they're saying that this was, it's a neurological disease that at the time of the conservatorship she was diagnosed with and that's what the judge made the decision on. That's what the attorney is saying. Where the doctor's at? Because all I hear is Sabrina Morrissey and Roberta Kaplan saying these things with the wisdom the doctors that saying these things Well her doctor wouldn't be able to come out and say that there's a new hippo They can't you know, I mean they can't do that

You can't just those documents and all that that's a private thing release the documents But can't can't somebody in the medical field Someone in the medical field could come in and say what they think based on what they're hearing and seeing but the doctor to actually Diagnosed her unless Wendy or whoever the guardian whoever gives them Permission can't just do that. With Britney Spears it was like that. Like to this day, we still don't know what Britney Spears' issue is as far as her health. We just know she was in a contervention.

We know what all Wendy's issues are, but they're not coming from a doctor is what I'm saying. The lawyer and the guardian are the ones saying that she has these issues. And this is my other thing. I think her name is Roberta. The attorney is Roberta? Roberta Kaplan. Roberta Kaplan. Why would she be speaking out if she's Wendy's civil attorney, right?

Because she's suing civilly, correct? Yes. But you said because Sabrina can't speak publicly. Yes. So she is speaking out because due to whatever it was decided on in the guardianship court order, Sabrina, who is her conservator, is prohibited from making any comments on this on the story, like in response to the interview.

And Wendy told us she never met Roberta Kaplan. She never met her personally. No. Wendy said that to y'all. She told us. Yeah, from the conversation I had with Wendy, she said that she's aware of who she is. It's been like maybe a slight conversation, but she didn't meet her and she didn't want to meet her.

There was no reason for her to because the A&E situation is not her fight. She's focused on figuring out this conservatorship stuff. This is crazy. It's just very telling that if you are suing Lifetime and A&E because you're saying that Wendy wasn't of sound mind to consent to these contracts, of course the lawyer would push that narrative. Yeah, that she's, yeah, of course. I mean, they want to win a case.

Absolutely. I think what her, Alex Finney, her niece mentioned yesterday too was good because she said, well, why can't we do another health evaluation right now? That was so long ago. Which I think could answer a lot of questions. But let's take a listen to what Wendy actually said about her condition herself.

They said you're cognitively impaired and you're incapacitated. Do I seem that way? No. God damn it. You've been calling me five times a day for the last two weeks. No, you don't seem that way. How dare you? How dare you?

Excuse me. Who I naturally am is who I naturally am, you know what I'm saying? And my niece knows all about that crap Hmm, so she's leaning into look Good day bad day who I am is who I am yeah I learned so much yesterday people were sending me stuff like I saw the black information that work reported that the judge overseeing Wendy's guardianship her name is Lisa sokoloff She was once under investigation because of a concerning link between her and

guardianship cases. And there was like a six month, month probe over allegations. She took bribes from guardianship lawyers. Just something to know. I mean, it's just something's clearly going on. Yeah, something seems off. Something this whole thing seems off. Something does not seem right in this whole thing.

But I'm not even just with Wendy's case, just this whole conservatorship guardianship system seems insane. Yeah, the amount of people I called yesterday said they were going through the same issues, the same problems and- That's sad. There's documentaries about it on Netflix, like people were sending me documentary links to watch. Me too, I was getting texts all this stuff yesterday about different movies to watch, about people who were in this position, like documentaries in real life or like

fictional stuff that is very similar to this as well But I think you know the medical system people forget It's a system and systems as we've experienced are not built to kind of help us in a way that make the most sense They're business. Yeah, it's 100% business and and I know there was another like Wendy talked about this on another interview about like How people make money off of this and people keep asking? Well, why does she keep saying oh they make money off of this they make money off of this. And people keep asking, well, why does she keep saying, oh, they make money off of this, they make money off of this. A guardian, it's a job.

It's a job. Where she's staying, she pays to stay there. Someone's getting paid from all of this. So, I mean, I can't. She'll be speaking to Jason Lee today too from Hollywood Unlocked. I think they might have taped it already though. I'm not sure.

Yeah, he posted about it. I forget what time it goes up though. 11 a.m. Okay. 11 a.m. Okay. 11 a.m. All right. We'll shout out to Jason Lee.

And that is Jess with the Mess with Laura LaRosa. Now, when we come back, we got front page news and then the cast of Harlem will be joining us. We're going to be talking to Tyler Leppley, Megan Good, Grace Byers, Shanique Wishande, and Jerry Johnson. So don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Wake up. wake up, wake up,

We are the Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa is filling in for Jess. And let's get in some front page news. Now, NFL this weekend. Games on Saturday and Sunday. Now, the Texas take on the Kansas City Chiefs. Commanders take on the Lions. Who you got, Charlamagne? Keep in mind I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan.

And you know, every year I say Cowboys going to the Super Bowl. So don't listen to me as an expert on any of this. But I think the Texans gonna upset the Chiefs. I think the Commanders gonna upset the Lions. I got the Chiefs in the Lions on Saturday. Who you got, Lauren? Saturday. Nevermind.

Okay. I got the Lemon Drops. There's gonna be an upset in one of those games. I think, and I really don't, it's gonna be an upset in one of those games. I think, I think the, and I really don't, it's gonna be upset in one of those games. That's all I'm gonna say. I think the Chiefs of Lines. Now Sunday-

You think the Chiefs of Lines is gonna win straight up. I think the Chiefs of Lines is gonna win. No, one of them games is gonna be an upset. Now Sunday, the Rams take on the Eagles, Ravens take on the Bills. I say Eagles and Ravens. I got Rams, Ravens for that one. Good morning, boy!

Good morning, good morning, guys. Make sure you got snacks, boy. Good morning. Good morning, guys. I also bring snacks into mine. I know that's right. I like those bold predictions. I like those bold predictions. LA does seem to be playing with a chip on their shoulder for good reason. And no, not too much on my Ravens.

Not too much on my Ravens. I got the Ravens at winning the whole Super Bowl. But once again, I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan. Don't listen to me. And of course, the commanders, man. Y'all had a good, it was a good season. Anyway, let's get into it. Let's talk inauguration, okay?

President-elect Trump's inauguration is being called an attractive potential threat or attractive potential target rather for violent extremists. That's according to US national security agencies, the FBI, Secret Service, Capitol Police, the Washington, D.C. government and Supreme Court's police department compiled a threat assessment. It laid out various scenarios and the types of people like foreign or domestic terrorists

who could make them happen. Officials have been on high alert, especially after last summer's assassination attempt on Trump and the New Year's Day attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas. Now, the agencies noted that there are no specific credible threats at this time. Now, former presidents Obama, Clinton, and Bush will not attend President-elect's inaugural lunch. NBC News reports all three will, however, attend Trump's swearing-in ceremony earlier on Monday.

The former first ladies will also attend with the exception of Michelle Obama. I know y'all have seen the memes. She not coming. It's also, she also did not attend the funeral service last week for former president Jimmy Carter. Again, inauguration is one of the only occasions when all former living presidents usually congregate to usher in the next administration. However, Trump declined to attend President Joe Biden's inauguration in 2021. This comes as TikTok CEO will attend President-elect Trump's inauguration. Shoozy Choo will be in Washington, D.C. the day after the social media platform is set to be banned in the U.S.

Multiple reports say Choo will be, he will join other big tech CEOs who are expected to attend including Tesla's Elon Musk, Metta's Mark Zuckerberg and Amazon's Jeff Bezos. Of course, this comes as TikTok ban has passed in Congress with a bipartisan majority last April and lawmakers gave the app until this Sunday, January 19 to either divest from ByteDance, its Chinese-owned company, or face a ban, which as mentioned before, President Biden's administration is not going to enforce that ban so it will be up to President-elect Trump as to what happens effective, I guess, January 20th. And other inauguration news flags will be raised, full staff at the U.S. Capitol on Monday in honor of the inauguration of President-elect Trump. Last month, President Biden ordered flags to be lowered to half-staff for 30 days in

remembrance of President Jimmy Carter. On Tuesday, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson posted on X that flags at the Capitol would fly at full-staff on inauguration and then be lowered back to half staff the following day to continue honoring Carter. Now speaking of Mike Johnson, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson said there should be certain requirements for any federal funding provided to assist those affected by the devastating wildfires in LA. California Gavin Newsom is firing back saying California has never questioned funding in a time of emergency.

When y'all basically when y'all asked us, we didn't put a price tag on it. He directed his comments directly to House Speaker Mike Johnson, President-elect Trump, and he used Louisiana as an example, adding Californians right now, they need empathy and compassion. Let's hear from California Governor Gavin Newsom. We never conditioned it. We never talked about putting the full-fate in credit of the United States of America with the debt ceiling bill so we can get tax cuts for billionaires and corporations that don't need it, as opposed to condemnation and divisive language that

has aided and embedded nothing except misinformation that's flamed fear and flamed a lot of anxiety for folks that are simply trying to recover. So it's ironic because right now there's actually a recall attempt targeting California Governor Gavin Newsom that is currently underway. Backers say his handling of the current wildfires were the breaking point. Former Senate candidate James Bradley who was one of the organizers says that they will file papers in the next two weeks. The petition lays out a long list of grievances against the governor. They cite an increased cost of living, crime, homelessness, and Newsom's recent call for a special session to safeguard the state's progressive policies from the incoming Trump administration.

Let's hear from former Senate candidate James Bradley. We're trying to make this nonpartisan as possible, address the issues and say, he's not the guy we need to bring someone in that can save California. We're getting so much support from extreme progressives now with Hollywood losing their homes. We've seen people leaving the state, businesses leaving the state. It went from a very business friendly climate to this is constant conflict. Yeah. So switching gears or bringing the topic of the L.A. wildfires to New York, where you guys are, New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand wants to ensure wildfire preparedness across the state following the devastation in Los Angeles. Now, she sent a letter to the New York State Division of Homeland Security,

requesting information about the state's readiness to combat potential wildfires. She says she's working on legislation to increase resources for fire departments, including measures that will put more money into training and equipment to fight wildfires. Let's hear from New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. I'm praying for these families who have lost loved ones and for the many who have been injured or displaced. While we still don't fully know the cause of these fires,

we do know fires like them are becoming more and more frequent and destructive nationwide as well as in New York. What's happening in Los Angeles is absolutely gut wrenching. And I pray that such a disaster like it will never happen in New York. But we need to do the work in the present to ensure we're ready for the future. absolutely gut wrenching. And I pray that such a disaster like it will never happen in New York. But we need to do the work in the present to ensure we're ready for the future. The equipment and training that's needed to stop a brush fire is very different than the

equipment and training needed to take down a fire in a building. Yeah, the senator noted November's unseasonably dry conditions and strong winds that fueled wildfires throughout the state, including New York City and the Hudson Valley. Now, the senator says she is also working on legislation to increase resources for fire departments, as previously mentioned in her audio. All right. Well, thank you, Morgan. Well, thank you.

Happy Friday! Go Flock, go Flock, go Commanders! Alright, when we come back we got the cast of Hall of Megan Good, Tyler Lepley, Grace Byers, Shaniqua Shandai, and Jerry Johnson joining us. So don't go anywhere, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Y'all been doing a lot on the side as well. Y'all been engaged. I know. Y'all been having babies. Y'all been doing a lot on the side as well.

Y'all been engaged. I know. Y'all been having babies. Y'all been putting out music. Living life. Children's books. Like y'all have to do this one. Yes.

It's true. So how were y'all doing all of that on the side as well as taping your show? You know what's interesting is that as we've been taping the show because we started... What year did we start? 2020. Okay, 2020. And then we got like maybe three episodes in,

then COVID happened, then we took a break, then we came back, then we had a year off, then we went through this strike and all these different things. But during the duration of all these things, we were experiencing life. We were having all kinds of life changes and having conversations in between,

because not only are we friends on the show, we're like sisters in real life, but also with Tracy and then same with Tyler, like that's our brother, that's our family. But each one of us were experiencing things that, you know, as Tracy spoke to us, she's like, What do you think about this? What do you think about that? And I know you're on this journey. And you know, do you mind if I implement this and all of that? So, so much of it is actually mirrored in the show of what we were experiencing. So it kind of made it seamless in that way and you know, you have a specific story about that But yeah, just everything it just it feels like it was a part of our actual lives

So what's your story with that? No show so we were talking about this But you know how Quinn goes through her depression journey in season two I did a lot of research on depression because it wasn't something I was personally dealing with at the time But I wanted to reflect it in a very honest way So went through that did that research and then I had the baby and then I was diagnosed with severe postpartum depression So even when I came on the show the last time I was in the depths of that Didn't really realize the impact and how that affected me until I started to kind of climb out of that, right? going through that journey with Quinn it gave me a space and a, I call it my help journal,

like a reflective journal to look back on and say, oh, like this was the way in which it was showing up for Quinn. I didn't realize that postpartum depression can show up as fatigue, as overwhelm. We know about the sadness, we know about all that stuff, but these are some of the ways the mood swings. Didn't know that that was a part of those things and so being able to play that and reflect

that in Quinn gave me almost like a map that I could go okay grace like yeah this is how you can navigate this. Did work help or hurt? Yeah, did it make it worse? No it helped because it actually gave me an enlightenment right like oh this is what it could look like this is what and so even though I was I was doing it for Quinn, you know, I felt it on a on a different nuance level when I was actually going through it myself. Got you. How are y'all juggling the schedules though? Like now? Because it's still it's like, y'all personally flourishing in business, y'all flourishing. How can y'all because I know

that the schedules I mean, I know y'all said It's been like two years since y'all did this but now y'all all got individually a lot going on too How can y'all still like how y'all juggling schedules? We don't start with Shanique one that one because she just got a single You know I thrive when I'm busy yeah, I really. I like the structure of figuring out my schedule. I become more detail-oriented when I have a lot of things to focus on. And I was very intentional about dropping Feel My Love, my new single, after ending season two with a engagement or proposal. And so I wanted to like balance that and have that come out at the same time as the show because I knew a lot of Harlem fans would be paying attention. But also

just to like you know maybe troll a little bit or make them question whether Angie would actually end up in this relationship because we don't get a yes or a no at the end of the season too. Okay strategy. So it could be anything. You know we're trying to have a roll out.

Megan you refer to them as your sisters and your brothers. Does that happen naturally? Because a lot of times you know know, people want to keep things business. So does that just happen naturally, this bond? It happened completely organically. Okay. Like from the beginning, from day one, if I start with Shanique, we're like, we were on FaceTime a few years prior and I had never met her before.

And we just spoke and we talked about like, you know, one day we're going to do a show together. And we touched and agreed on the camera of the FaceTime. And then literally years later, here we are both walking in, we're both testing and we're gonna do a show together and we touched and agreed on the camera of the FaceTime and then literally years later Here we are both walking in we're both testing and we're in the bathroom and she's like, do you remember me? I was like from where and she told me and I was like wait what and then we ended up praying and crying in the Bathroom and you know, there's that and then literally with Tyler It was just immediate like just family and just easy or an organic same thing with Jerry. It was like Okay, I've known her forever like, you know know and then with Grace I called her I was like girl I'm good she

was like don't tell me you get ready to come in for a meal. We were friends like for years before that so that was exciting yeah yeah. Is that the norm on sex? No. It isn't always like that okay and then you also you know when it when it's gonna be for women you just never know what you're gonna get you hope that that is the experience but you know and we had talked about this a few years prior saying how it would be great if we got an opportunity to work on a show together. So when I called her and she was like, I can't believe I'm so excited. It was like you just knew that God was in it. And I have to say for me, this has been the best professional experience

that I've had in my entire career. You know, you know, in a way, it's the end of a chapter, but it's exciting because the way that we end the chapter, we're really, really proud of and I think the audience is going to get everything that they want to get. But also I think that we got what we want to get outside of having a movie additionally. But it's better I think to to move this way where it's, you know, you didn't stay for too long, but you gave everyone exactly what they wanted and needed.

And I want to give Megan her props too, because she was a great leader in setting the culture of our set and everybody who has come and guest star, they've had a really great time. But we learned from Megan from grace, like it truly is a fun time. But also we have decided, we decided early on, that we were gonna stick together throughout this situation. So nobody could say, well, you know, this person was a difficult one, or this person was this one, or this,

because if there was a problem, we all have the problem. If there was a, we all have it, and we're on the Zoom calls or whatever, and you won't know where the source is because we didn't want it to be like somebody was pinpointed or somebody is this one's first If somebody says something to one of us about the other one, we're not just gonna take it at face value We come into the source and saying hey did this really happen?

People do like to like separate women and pin women against each other So I think it was really important for us to, and this is my second show. I mean, I was like six months out of grad school and I booked this show and first time being the lead in something and then to get to do it like this, which is for me, my manifestation and to be like, oh wait, no, actually for me, this can be the norm of the experience and y'all set the tone for that so I thank you for being

Let's go. Alright we have more with the cast of Harlem here Megan Good, Tyler Lepley, Grace Byers, Shaniqua Shandai and Jerry Johnson when we come back it's the Breakfast Club good morning. Morning everybody it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the God we are the Breakfast Club we're still kicking in with the cast of Harlem their final season is out January 23rd We have Megan Good Tyler Lepley grace bias Shaniqua Shandai and Jerry Johnson. Now Tyler I see you you recently got engaged. Congratulations I was reading your comments when you did it and you know there were some people saying it's about time it's about so I was like let my man cook let him do what he wants. Come on let him cook man.

Let him marinate let me let me find my seasoning you know what I'm saying. I feel like you know when it comes to any relationships whether we talk about my fiance Miracle now or we talking about you know my sisters right here it behooves us to really you know just take our time with it. Figure out a place that we can get in where it's a true you know both feed in give and take relationship where we're really bringing something to the table and able to take something away from it you know I'm saying that takes time you know we live in this microwave society where everything's supposed to be overnight you know and social

media makes it harder makes it more difficult you know you're not able to grow at your own pace you know you got to suffer your wins and your losses sometimes, well, all the time, in front of everybody. You know, so it makes it a little bit more, you know, when things are under a magnifying glass, you know, I just slow it down, make sure everything is real, you know, look on the ground, we locked in the ground, all right, cool. You know what I'm saying? So I feel like just taking your time with anything can allow it to, you know, just develop

in the right way. But, you know, I took my time and it ended up being something that I was um you know I was happy with. I think she was too. Megan you got engaged too. Congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. I just want to say something real quick because you know we you know I remember seeing Jonathan and Creed and I remember watching them just do his thing.

I'm happy that the new one about weightlifting is coming back. We love seeing Jonathan. Magazine Dreams. Magazine Dreams. So it's like we love seeing Jonathan up on the screen but it's like anytime I see somebody before I get to meet them, you never know what it's going to be, especially in Hollywood. It's crazy out here. So it's like I remember meeting Jonathan and, it's crazy out here. You know what I mean?

So it's like, I remember meeting Jonathan and it was interesting how I bumped into him for a couple days and he was already like my bro. He's like my brother already. So by the time we bumped into each other at the Ebony thing the other month, it was just like, yo, it's my dog. We dappin' up and whatnot and it was just cool

because you don't often see that in this space. So it's like, Jonathan's like a brother. I love Jonathan. Jonathan died. When he proposed to me, did you say, who did Jonathan, when he proposed, did he say will you be my Coretta? He didn't say that. But you know, I am his Coretta though. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We were thinking about doing that for Halloween. That was me. That would have been an amazing troll, why did y'all do it? What we'll do next year, because we already had those costumes from the year before, but the strike, we wanted to respect them asking us

not to dress up as characters. But next year, you know what I'm saying? Mr. Dungeon. Look, period. Jerry, you were engaged too? Yes. One more engagement, Jerry. We're engaged as well.

Congratulations. Thank you, and the funny thing is, my fiance and Jonathan went to college together. Wow. Did they really? That's crazy. Jonathan went to college together. Wow. Did they really? That's crazy. They went to acting school together and so it was like actually the four of us it was

like a it just felt right anyway. Yeah. But yeah I got engaged in Jamaica you know I was like hearing the side. I wanted to make it so I can't. Grace wanted to be in another life Grace was my wife. Just so y'all know. You. No, but she was my wife in another life. It's okay. Next time. No, no, no, but it's been great. It is interesting though for everything like the social media thing for everything to be so public with it.

And you have to figure out how to navigate when somebody isn't in the public life. You know, she's a producer. And so her job is more of playing background, even though she I mean, she has retired from acting on stage and stuff. And so it's just it's just interesting. But it's been beautiful to see, see my community accept it and accept her so wonderfully, but she also is like, that's my best friend. So it's just amazing.

Congrats. Megan's dope. So a couple years ago, your first marriage had ended and I know that had to be very hard for you. Did you ever see yourself not getting married again? Did you ever say like, I'm giving up on that? No, I'm a very optimistic person. And and I really do trust God. And even when I don't understand, I just I have to lean into the fact that God knows what it is

and what it's supposed to be. And God's gonna take care of everything. But yeah, I was never like, I'm not gonna get married again. I was just like, yeah, but now sitting here today, I'm thankful for every part of the experience. I'm thankful for every part of the journey, every single thing that I've been through, whether it was that, I mean, just anything along the journey has made me better, has made me stronger, has helped me learn more about myself, but it's not only done that, but increased my faith. And it's brought me closer to the person that I want to be.

And so it's been, it's been crazy, but it's been amazing. Yes, you are a strong woman. You are, you are. It's just that there too, like even the trial when your husband, well, your fiance, I'm sorry, you know what I'm saying? I can say whatever you want. Yeah. All right, all right.

Seeing them going through, you know, the trial and everything, was there even a point in that where you were like, yo, this is, this is a lot, this is too much. You know what I mean? Like. No. No. Okay. Was there even a point in that where you were like, yo, this is a lot, this is too much. You know what I mean? No. No? No.

Literally, I was talking to God and I knew I was exactly where I was supposed to be. Love that. And I've learned along the way that not only will things not always make sense to me, but sometimes they won't make sense to other people. And that's okay. As long as you are in alignment with God

and you're trusting the path that you're on, that's it. And the more that I've done that, the happier I've been. I don't know when I've been this happy before. I think I might have been a kid when I was seven. Wow. That's dope. I was gonna ask, how do y'all deal with the rumors with all the relationships and the comments

and the things that go out of play? Do you feel like you have to answer every one of them? Cause it has to get to a point where you're like, f*** this, you know what I mean? I will say, when people say, so I was living with Megan when she was dating, and with the whole Jonathan coming up, like I was live there when she would come back to the house

and we would discuss what was happening, and she was like, and this was before the trial and everything like that, and I still have voice recordings of her being like, I think I love this man, I'm like, okay, girl. But when people think that people will just be in a relationship as a publicity stunt. That's my point.

It just like, to me, it just is like, what? Y'all don't know how publicity works, first of all. Because it's not like, this don't make sense for publicity. Because Megan didn't need that kind of publicity. Precise. Megan's been doing it for 30-something years. Precisely.

So that's the thing that irritates me, like, how much was she getting? It just was like, are y'all dumb? So yeah, sometimes I do comment, are you dumb? No, so you have a point. So you comment. Yeah. So you'd ask her.

Listen, I'm from North Philly. I'm a saint. But I don't know shit. Not only Jerry, her sister would do not care about me. Yeah, no, but I don't give a shit. Not only Jerry, her sister will do nothing about it. Her sister don't play. Lamar and Bill Billinger does not play. I'm telling you to call them there and tell them, chill out. You know what, I just disconnect.

I'm at a point now where I'm 43 and I've already been through all the seasons, all the media takeouts, all the bosseps, all the dragging, all the things. And I just don't care anymore. And I think also too, like when, like when we talk about rumors, like, you know, it's not just limited to, you know, the public things that people see. Like sometimes people have all kinds of things that they want to say about you as a person and they're, Oh, we heard this story about the, that, that at the end of the day, everybody's going to always look through the scope of their own limited experience I cannot see myself and form my identity or my alignment with God based off of the limited Experiences that you have and see even the opinions that you form that's all with the mini like the

Minuscule details that you have it does not define me as a person and it will go awry If I start to be who I'm not supposed to be because I'm so interested in showing you that I'm not who you think I am. Your misrepresentation of me does not define me, does not fulfill my purpose, it will not shape the path before me and I think that that's just really what it comes down to and it's good to say it though because we're all in the public eye. There's a lot of things that people want to say and do when it comes to us and I think you just have to and then you have to pick and choose what's worth your energy.

And my gift to you is a free subscription to the I Am Rappaport Stereo Podcast where I discuss entertainment, sports, politics, and anything and everything that catches my attention.

I am here to call it as I see it. And there's a whole lot of things catching my eyes these days. Here's's a whole lot of things catching my eyes these days. Here's a clip from one of my favorite episodes. You are not a real fighter. You will never be discussed anywhere in boxing history. Ever.

Fake Paul. The movie is The Apprentice and the movie is about young Donald Trump and his apprentice, Roy Cohen. Real character, obviously both are real characters. It kind of has a Scarface vibe to it, which I thought was very interesting. Listen to the I Am Rapaport Stereo podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, and wherever you get your podcast.

Good morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking in with the cast of Harlem, Megan Good, Tyler Lepley, Grace Byers, Shaniqua Shandai, and Jerry Johnson. Charlamagne? Does acting allow y'all to just escape when you're dealing with all of these personal things

and now you can just go be somebody else for a few hours? It allows you to work through things. Past traumas, certain experiences, whether it's childhood, I mean, whatever it may be, it allows you to have a place to put it to good use and for it to be something that someone else can watch or see and take from it and go, okay, that made me feel not alone,

that made me feel seen or understood. So I think in a way it's therapeutic. I don't know if it really allows us to escape. I get to each his own. I think escape gets a little dangerous. So do y'all allow yourselves to lose yourself in a role? You can't go there. You can't. Because that's, I think that if we think about like some of our greats that have lost themselves and then we lost them. I think I was gonna say that yeah It's like when you go there if you don't know how to unzip that character and step out in order to go home

And not have that energy in your home it gets crazy But also the body doesn't know the difference sometimes so when you go when you're going deep into a character And you're not doing those things where you are separating when you get home, your body don't know the difference. So if my character is going crazy, if I'm playing the Joker and I'm really in there and I'm taking the Joker home with me, my body don't know that I'm not the Joker if I believe it enough. And so sometimes, you know, it's good to be like, all right, I'm gonna give a cap on this.

Like if I really got to go there, I'm gonna go there for the six months. I got to go there, but I'm already planning all the things I need to plan. So that day I'm done. It's already set up for me to release this, whether I'm going to the ocean, whether I'm wherever I am, whether all of my friends come to my house to remind me of who I am I have to have something that Reality sets me back to who I am or it's not gonna be it's gonna be on my spirit And it's not gonna be good for me then speaking of then Jerry where's ties here that after she found out she smashed the mother She just goes back to real life to back to reality. Cause he confused me that whole second. Cause now she gotta jump back into being Ty.

Yeah, Ty's reality has this. Yes, that's crazy. That's crazy. You know, to find out something like that is like how do you even deal with that? And I think Ty decides. Cause what does Ty really want? You know, she's poly, she's single, she's open. I think even though Jerry is poly, she's greedy.

But she's loved a bit. Even though Jerry is poly, I wouldn't describe Ty as poly. I think Ty was really wanting something, but also probably in that moment being greedy, because she was wanting something but having something else. And I think sometimes if my intention is commitment, then I have to go towards what that intention is. And if it's commitment towards one person and I'm letting my energy fly,

of course I might end up with a daughter in America. I watch that episode, I knew what was going on and I was like, oh. Yeah, that'm sick. Grace, how has motherhood changed you? I think what I did not expect was that I was fully prepared to be like, I'm ready to learn everything I can about motherhood and my child.

I did not anticipate that I was going to also go on a journey to learn about myself. And so I had to face things about myself in order to ensure his well-being, right? So I had to go back to my own childhood go back to the things that You know that I didn't realize that I was like holding on to or dealing with or like simple things like you know Like being being a recovering people pleaser. I can't do that with my child. I will be so depleted I will not show up as the mother that I need to be

So how do I then organize in my mind? Like how do I prioritize myself for real for real? Yeah, you know so like things like that that I didn't expect that are really changing my life These moments bittersweet knowing that you know, he's gonna be the last time y'all probably do interviews together and things of that nature Yeah, they said they they talk about movies. They manifest the movie. So it's gonna be the last time. We need a petition. And the minute we tell them, the minute it's not this, y'all could do something else. Because y'all are so grounded even as just outside the cast, just hearing y'all speak,

like, you know, like even from the last interview that we had with you, like, so much growth, like, and I'm saying that you, you know. Oh yeah, so I was last time right no No, it's Zen for its tranquility. This is a whole bunch is y'all are very grounded as a cast so I'm gonna stand anything else not even don't have to be Harlem or just y'all can write your own movie. I can direct it. We can just get it. Melissa, we love you guys. Thank you for creating the forum for us to be able to come on here. We really appreciate it.

Oh no, thank you for coming out. And even just to all of us before, as we sang goodbye, I feel like one of the biggest reasons it's not a sad goodbye is for a multitude of. Like A, we have a great beginning, middle, and now we knew where we're landing at. So that's a beautiful thing. But then on the flip side, off of the script, because of the way we was able to come together as family, I feel like this is a, a lot of times when we say goodbye to people, it's like a sad goodbye. You know what I'm saying?

But it's like, I really feel like this is a, this is the opposite, it's almost like a happy goodbye. You know what I'm saying? When we say goodbye, it's almost like we raising the trophy up. You know what I'm saying? But it's like, I really feel like this is a, you know, this is the opposite, almost like a happy goodbye. You know what I'm saying? When we say goodbye, it's almost like we raising the trophy up. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, when I do, yeah, it's on a good note. So when I think back about these times,

it's not really gonna be a sad thing. You know, we're able to experience together, share it with the world, and close the book at the right time. Well, Shaniqua, you tell them we ain't not leaving like that. We leaving with your singles. So we gonna play your record. We gonna play your record.

We gonna play your record. But before we play your record, Miss Grace, I felt the God in you this morning. We're gonna say a prayer before we get up outta here. Do you want me to say the prayer? Or you want me to say the prayer? No, I'm not saying it. I'm God is good, God is great.

It's the Breakfast Club good morning. Morning everybody it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club, Lola Rosa is here. That was Shaniqua Shanday that was a single. Salute to Shaniqua. What's it called? Feel the Love. Salute to Shaniqua. Me and Shaniqua, I produced a film a few years ago called Body. Salute to my guy Joseph Kahn. It was a Joseph Kahn film, executive produced by Eminem, and I was a producer on it, and Shaniqua was in that film as well. Okay. Salute to her. That's her single. So make sure you go stream it, download it, and all that good stuff.

But let's get to Jess with the Mess with Lauren LaRosa. Just don't do no On the breakfast club All right, so real quick before we get into like this like the depth of some other stories I did reach out to Roberta I said lately Wait it gets worse Roberta Roberta Roberta I can't say no people names. I reached out to Robbie Kaplan and she did send over the statement It was a statement that she provided TMZ But this statement in full there was a line that wasn't added into the TMZ story

that I did wanna highlight. At the end of the statement, she says, "'It is truly a shame that there is so much "'voyeuristic attention right now to this, "'since it only leads to the same kinds of exploitation "'that we saw in the so-called documentary "'as alleged in our complaint.'" She's referring to the complaint that they have

against A&E right now in the courts. But I thought that was crazy because, I mean, I took that as like she's trying to say that we exploited Wendy. It was not exploitation. It's a woman named Wendy Williams who made a choice to tell her story because she believes she's getting taken advantage of.

Nobody knows the current situation. They are in better than Wendy Williams. Wendy Williams asked to call in the Breakfast Club. Roberta, I understand you have a lawsuit against Lifetime and A&E and the basis of the lawsuit is that Wendy wasn't capable of consenting to the terms of the documentary and you need to continue to paint Wendy as lawsuits that Wendy wasn't capable of consenting to the terms of the documentary. And you need to continue to paint Wendy as a person

who isn't capable of making good decisions. But please remember, Wendy is capable enough to dispute everything you're saying. And I'm sure she will. My drop. All right, now moving on. Tiana and Ari sat down. Ari Fletcher, who is, you know, Instagram model,

but also a D bag. Yo former girlfriend and kids mom of G Herbo. Yeah Taina I'm sorry Taina actually has kids with G Herbo now and that is also Emily's daughter They were on our show cooking with the Don and people were surprised because y'all know they've been through it But they talked about their issues. Let's take a listen. You don't know I didn't know that they were together So you had no clue? Well, I knew you guys had a baby. A brand new baby?

Yes. I had seen him before, like two times. He never tried to talk to me. Then a few months later, he hit me up. He basically said he was hitting me up because he had nothing going on. It wasn't anything until it was like all over the internet. The first time that she figured that it was something Yes, between me and him still was when I posted you on the internet. Yes. I'm like, this is messy

Like what's happening her posting it kind of like made us like have to defend each other and I think that for y'all drama Bonded. Yes. I know everybody thinks that I was like homewrecker Everybody thinks I was his a homewrecker everybody thinks I was his side piece why you was pregnant and all of that like that was not the case I love that I love seeing people be civil with each other yeah it was really good to see and and I've always been like I don't know how people after you go through so much especially publicly and y'all are celebrities and influencers and you know I mean people are so in your business and like now

you got to kind of like you got a like stand ten toes down and all the stuff y'all said how you get through it, but watching this last night I was like man I'm actually happy that these women have gotten to the place where they can do this because they their kids are family Yeah, well, we see them in the clubs We've seen them together before and Ares moved on and I'm sure that G Herbo and Tain are moved on as well together But hey girl, she says she's in between jobs, but it sounds like she won't be in the tea Who's who in this situation? I know one is you heard with baby mama what's the other person is Fab and Emily's so fab stepdaughter for Emily's daughter Tina she's a date you heard she's

yeah and actually they were hungover in this interview because this was after those videos of them in the club. Oh, they was out there the night before. Yeah, they were out hanging out and all that. That's dope. Now. Why they just don't put the Polynesian sauce on it and everybody get together and there's gonna be one big happy family.

What do you mean? Because Ari's dating somebody else. She's dating Moneybag. Hold on, you mean like them all go together? Yeah, but she dating somebody else. She goes with Moneybag, yo. Gotcha. Also, Ari talked about that too

because she hates when people say that because that ain't never happening. She don't want G Herbo and that's like her brother now. Yes. But another part that they talked about in this there were some claims a while back that Tyena put her hands on your Sean who was G Herbo's daughter, son, I'm sorry G Herbo's son with Ari. Let's take a listen. So did you put your hands on my son? You know I did not touch her son. They don't know we had Her Bro's son with Ari. Let's take a listen. child abuse on you. If my baby see it, did you think that I was lying? Like I just completely made that up? No, I don't but full transparent, I thought like maybe he was getting like coached because she didn't mess with me.

You know what I think that stemmed from? What? He wanted to go out with his dad every time his dad went out. So I don't know if maybe that was like a way to make him be able to like be with his dad only. Like oh Ty Ty did this so he don't keep leaving me with her. And that was a big deal too, it was a huge back and forth because you know, claiming somebody put hands on a child is, it gets crazy. But it was glad to see, I was glad

to see that they talked that out as well, especially because again, they're not going nowhere. They're about to have to spend a lot of time together, a lot of birthdays, a lot of Christmases, all that good stuff. I'm glad they'm glad they this generation things like that because you know, they always say it takes a village, right? Uh-huh, you know growing up the whole village shows violence against your black ass. Okay, you beat by every goddamn body Okay, everybody could put hands on you back then. All right now speaking of Allegedly the rappers are punching, okay? Rappers are punching. So yesterday, the story broke that Method Man had allegedly put his hands on a young

man who used to date his daughter. What is being reported per police sources is that Method Man punched this man in his face seven times. Method Man punched this man in the face. Seven times at a gym in Long Island. Peace dog. Seven. Peace out seven. This dispute was over, you know, something that happened when the guy used to date his daughter.

Allegedly. Now I reached out to method man is right. Method man is right. No, the internet was like, we're so sorry that method man's hands had to come in contact with whatever happened. Like they people don't play about method. But I reached out to method means rep who says that they can confirm he was not arrested and he denies the allegations as reported.

And it stated in a lot of stories that he was not arrested but that this went down allegedly. Now the other rapper that I'm talking about is Busta Rhymes. So allegedly on January 10, Busta Rhymes got into it with a guy who was his assistant over the guy being on the phone during work hours. It escalated the back of form escalated Busta Rhymes punched this man in the face a few times allegedly the guy called 911 Busta Rhymes got up out of there but he recently had to turn himself in on this and when the police got there and the paramedics arrived on the scene the guy was rushed to a local hospital to be treated for an eye injury. But Tuesday, Bustaram turned himself into NYPD about this because they're investigating it. He was given a death ticket for a misdemeanor assault, attempted assault

and harassment. I hate to be the victim-blamer in this situation, but when you're talking about Bustaram and you're talking about Bustaram, those are two grown men who have very good heads on their shoulders. And they're from the era where... I hate to say, well what did those people do to deserve that? I believe Busta. But they're also from the era where if you talk something you're gonna get smacked in the mouth. It's not even about that tough guy hush. It is. I'm saying the fact that Busta is 55 years old and he put hands on his daughter's ex-boyfriend. There's something there

Hands on his 50 year old assistant, there's something there. I'm not saying who's right or who's wrong. I'm just saying I'm victim blaming But allegedly that's there already grew up in all right, I don't know about the errors I just say did you know I can't push people in the mouth now, but back then you could you get away with it was problem We're wrapping up allegedly. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. All right. All right. All right. Thank you for that. Just with the mess But yeah, I mean I'll punch back. I've gotten punched and punched back. I don't mind it. It happens. I don't know about that story. I'll never see your face at this date.

You saw the other video. I don't care though. I'm not telling no more stories. I don't care. Either way. Better not. Shalana who you giving your doctor to? Listen, four after the hour we need a person who refused to be a victim, but it cost her her name is Malaysia Lee She needs to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with her. All right We'll get to that next aside. No Charlemagne did push somebody back. No, I didn't knock them out. I said that I was there

No, I did not you're lying on Big Joe, cut it out. Stop inviting, stop inviting N.B. out 2025. You're checking out The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne the Godhead, I want you to know that our Audible picker today is the Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins. Tap into your power and stop wasting time on things you can't control. Listen when you sign up for a free trial at audible.com slash Breakfast Club. Oh man, Charlamagne, you've given Donkey the day to who now?

Well, not you, Buster. Unless your assistant tells us something else, all right? But Donkey the Day for Friday, January 17th, goes to 22-year-old Malaysia Lee. Malaysia is from Charlotte, North Carolina. Salute to the 704. Drop on the Clues bombs for Charlotte, man. One of the reasons that I have chosen to be a mental health advocate is because I want us as humans to learn how to control our emotions.

Easier said than done, I know, but today's donkey is a prime example of it's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters. That's why going to do that internal work on yourself matters. Because you can get to that place where you realize you don't have to match energies, baby. And you realize you don't have to take everything personally because as Don Miguel Ruiz says in one of my favorite books, The Four Agreements, whatever happens around you, don't take it personally.

Nothing other people do is because of you, it is because of themselves. Malaysia could have used that advice. See, she could have used that second agreement because Malaysia was an employee at Wendy's in the 704 and according to store managers a 31 year old homeless man named Alondra Alon... is it Alondra? Yeah Alondra Romero Santos came in the restaurant requesting free food okay the news report said he was homeless so clearly he wasn't having the best day. After the manager provided him

with a cup of water Santos allegedly used the cup to fill it up with soda instead. Pepsi, Coke, Sprite, Fanta, I don't know what his soda choice was but when Santos went to the restroom the manager threw the cup away. Why? Okay I don't know. Let the man have his cup if he wants you know to get free refills who cares. In fact give him some of those hot fries and a cheeseburger and tell him keep it moving the man was homeless now granted you can't make a habit of that because you will have people coming to the store doing that all the time but if you see someone in need at least attempt to help in this case you didn't help in fact you clearly hurt because when Santos came

out the bathroom he got mad he got upset because the manager threw the cup away so he went to the parking lot found another cup and returned to the store to fill it with soda once again now of course the manager didn't like that you went outside and found a cup in the parking lot to fill it back up with soda by the way that's nasty okay that is disgusting all right that's how you know desperate times call for desperate measures somebody might have have spit slim in that cup okay and tossed it before they left the parking lot. Might have been rolling a blunt.

You know how it is sometime when you out somewhere and you sit in the car, roll it up, you know, you got a little cup from the, from a fast food restaurant. You put the blood guts in that cup, spitting it, you know, toss it. That's why using a cup he found in the parking lot is gross. But according to this article, he's also homeless, so I'm not judging, but Santos got mad at the manager so then Santos threw the soda at Malaysia who was sitting in the restaurant with the manager now when I heard this story I said to myself I think that's a salt I'm not the highest

grade of weed in the dispensary knowing my illegal expert but that feels like an assault it's not a punch a slap a push but it is an attack okay there is a reason sprite rhymes with fight okay that is a man throwing a slap, a push, but it is an attack. There is a reason Sprite Rhymes would fight. That is a man throwing a drink on a woman. So I did some research and by research I mean I asked ChatGPT, is throwing a drink on a woman considered assault? And ChatGPT said yes throwing a drink on someone including a woman is generally considered assault or battery under the law depending on the jurisdiction. Well we need to lock up everyone on reality TV. From Love and Hip Hop to Real Housewives round

them all up. Alright yes Malaysia was assaulted and Malaysia did what a lot of people do in the Carolinas. North or South okay when they get assaulted. She went to her car. Okay she didn't have an honor she went and got her pistol. Now I don't know why the dude Santos stood there and waited for her to come back but I guess he didn't expect this young lady to have a pistol but she did and Malaysia came back in the store chased Alondra outside and shot at him three times hit him once in the head while he was driving yes this homeless man had a car okay and Malaysia shot the car up and hit him in the head and she was charged with assault with a

deadly weapon with intent to kill and discharging a firearm into occupied property and she is in custody she's in custody at the Mecklenburg County Jail under a quarter million dollar bond. Now I tell you folks all the time, you cannot tell someone how to react. Okay, I might push you and your response might be to pull out a gun and pop me. Well guess what? I shouldn't have pushed you. There is cause and effect to everything, but your Uncle Sharla also tells you that when faced with certain situations, you have to start doing jail math in your head.

Okay, you literally have to calculate how much time you could possibly get if you do said crime. You have to calculate in your head if you can afford to do what it is you're about to do. See Malaysia, I'm not mad at you for going to get your pistol. You was assaulted. I feel like owning a legal firearm in this country and knowing how to use it is a form of self care.

But here's my issue and why you're getting the biggest he-haw. It's because you didn't do your jail math. Malaysia, you had plenty of time to think about your choice. I understand this man threw soda on you, and I'm glad you were able to go to your car to get your gun, but the gun should have been there to protect you from the situation escalating further or maybe even to hold the man while the cops come.

I'm not expecting you to be a vigilante hero in this situation, but I just wanted you to move with a little less emotion. Okay, you got to be strategic. I'm not expecting you to be a vigilante hero in this situation, but I just wanted you to move with a little less emotion. Okay, you got to be strategic. I understand you were upset because he threw a drink on you and who knows what else you know was going on in his life or even in your life, but you went and got that pistol. He saw you coming. He hauled ass, got this car and you let off shots. I can even understand that to a certain extent because he might've been going to his car to get his weapon, but in this case this case according to reports he was driving off. Let him go. I know hindsight is 20-20 and it's easy for me to say because I wasn't in this situation

but let him go. Hell you could even let one off in the air just to let him know you will bust your gun. But shooting in his car three shots, gunshot wound to the head while he's driving off. You should have started doing that jail math in your head man. Luckily he's not deceased but now you sitting in the county with a quarter million dollar bail. I'm not counting your pockets but you're 22 and work at Wendy's. I doubt you got a quarter million or the 25,000 because most bonds are 10%. I doubt you have either but that's why jail math works and you have to calculate these scenarios in your head before you make decisions.

Addition, subtraction multiplication Division how long will I be gone if I do this how much money will it cost me if I do this? subtract your emotion from things and ask yourself is it worth it if I do this the answer is no You are in jail right now simply because a man wanted a free soda. Let him have it It is not worth ending up in jail over a free soda and free fast food. I mean, come on. Who would go to jail for a free soda and free fast food? Wow. Oh Lord. Play your steam music. Okay guys. Ear. Okay, guys here

Mitch sighs Mac is here How are you how are you Mitch sighs Mac hungry What Mac I know I knew soon as I said something about food you're gonna walk in it This is I don't understand how I keep telling you all that the the big backs are biting back Nothing is worth any of this and not even just because like you said the jail math. Every black person knows we all have the same mantra at work. I don't get paid enough for this. I agree. Yeah. I'm with you. Them faux for foes. I'm with you. Defending that. I don't get paid enough for this. You want to steal from Home Depot? I don't get paid enough for this. You just got to tell yourself in the back of your mind constantly Because that will prevent you from having to do the jail math

So even if they throw the food on you and a soda on you you still like well I'm the wrong person to ask that somebody throw food at me Please give Malaysia Lee the biggest he-huh? Jesus Christ, man. So here, Glizzy Catcher, he gonna hold this one. I ain't saying all that. I said, if somebody throw it at him, what else you got? God dang.

You think Mini Hana's an Afro-BGF? I hate this show so much. I'm gonna open my mouth. Don't threaten me with a party. Mini Hana being your foreplay is crazy, bro. That's how you know there ain't no HR here. They probably like, look, I don't get paid enough for this. Alright thank you Glizzy Catches. Shalomay thank you for that doggy today. Yes indeed. Now speaking of Glizzy Catches. Oh my god I've been waiting for this day. Listen first of all one of our favorite

This is Questlove, and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th.

I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimini, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey y'all, Nimini here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip hop. Each episode is about a different, inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin,

a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And if you get with me, did you know, did you know, I wouldn't give up my seat? Nine months before Rosa, he was Claudette Goldman.

Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Happy holidays from me, Michael Rapaport. My gift to you is a free subscription to the I Am Rapaport Stereo podcast where I discuss entertainment, sports, politics, and anything and everything that catches my attention. I am here to call it as I see it and there's a whole lot of things catching my eyes these days. Here's a clip from one of my favorite episodes. You are not a real fighter. You will never be discussed

anywhere in boxing history. Ever. Fake Paul. The movie is The Apprentice and the movie is about young Donald Trump and his apprentice Roy Cohen. Real character, obviously both real characters. It kind of has a Scarface vibe to it, which I thought was very interesting. Listen to the I Am Rap Report Stereo podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast and wherever you get your podcast. I'm here to support any event that I get called off the bench to participate in something. I'm gonna do that. You only go as a character? I would love to go as Daniel, but they might not want that. I love to go with whatever it is. So what character, if they like, oh choose a character, who would it be?

If they asked me to choose a character, because I've done SNL with him and recreating characters we did on the show I did beautiful two times that he's been on it and it's interesting because there's never been a continuation in any capacity of Ashy Larry, so if I would take a guess I don't know what they plan on doing Yo, I got a red dot we know we it like, we know we got a dark... No, I can't... Yo, don't do that, son. You don't remember that big ****? What?

Oh, yeah. You got a red dot. Who the **** did? Don't do that, son. What you mean you had a red dot? What you talking about? I had a red dot and it's very dangerous. No, it's because the lights, look at the...

The reflection is red over there, it's red on the camera. This is a horrible attempt of trying to be funny. It was me too. But what was I saying? What was the question again? I was saying who would you be? You were saying you would be Ashie Lary. If I would take a wild guess and what I would like people to see is a continuation of where

is Ashie Lary now? That would be very very interesting. I like that. Where is Ashie Lary now? Somewhere getting moisturized. With baby oil? That was horrible. What?

I mean what else you use? God damn the lights man. Are we in a haunted house? Them lights are scary. You scared? You alright? We all here together. The lights just been acting up all day today.

Yo y'all doing some stupid shit man. Open your mouth. I know y'all doing some stupid shit. Are we in a haunted house? Them lights are crazy. You scared? You alright? We all here together? Fix the lights. The lights just been acting up all day today. Yo, y'all doing some stupid shit, man? Open your mouth. I know y'all doing some stupid shit. No we not. Sid, fix the lights please.

Alright. Where is this bag? Why would you put that bag up? You got something in there? Cause I don't know. Y'all doing something y'all probably got and I know you got it all up in your phone. All type of penis templates. I know you got it.

That's not true. And different colors, the Asian ones, those come in a smaller template. No. But I know you got penis templates deep down in your library somewhere. You know it's been 22 years since Dave Chappelle's been here? You know what? It has been 22 years since the premiere of the Chappelle show. But the interesting thing about that, it's been embedded into our culture so much.

Yes. It's hard to believe it was 22 years. Because of social media, because of the way things go viral. It's like, you put a funny post up, it's either punctuated with the meme that we did, or it's punctuated with the meme that me and Charlie did. And as much as people wanna say, get over it, that show was 22 years ago.

It's still relevant and people still connect with it. People tell you to get over it? Huh? People say that to you? Oh haters. People are like, oh yeah, what have you done? Sister Chapelle Show. What? They always say that.

But the dope thing about this show, and I was talking to Dave about it. Is that Dave right there? Hello? Hello? Hey, what's up, ma? I'm on the Breakfast Club right now. Hey, ma! Hey, ma! How are you, ma. Hey, what's up, mom? I'm on the breakfast club right now Picking her picking up the phone calling her doing podcasts. Oh, oh, don't do this, Ma. Hello?

He tried to hook me up with your other son You need to hear my voice every now and again No, you got talking to're not talking to me. That was Charlemagne, the booty bandit. I know who that was. We just discovered he got penis templates in his phone.

That's not true, ma. He got penis templates in his phone, ma. What? What? Yeah, that's what I said. Oh, just get off the line. All right, OK, I don't trust it. I'll call you back.

I love you. Bye. Who's your mama's favorite character that you played? It's actually Larry Really? Why because kind of the idea that would inspire me to do it I know it's a dice game and I used to shoot dice when I was younger and my mother's Done oh, it's all right. We have issues Look when the lights go off just hands in the air just to make sure the hands in the air He's sure that he's in

Toes We got more with done that when we come back yes the lights will get the light situation working when we come back So don't go anywhere. Don't know Rollins is here. It's the breakfast club. Good morning. Morning everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club Lauren LaRosa is here at the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody, it's DJ NV, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club, Lauren LaRosa is here as well. We're still kicking with Donnell Rollins. Charlamagne? I loved what Dave did last time when he had the, when he bought the haters back. Right. I would love to see him do that again. I would love to see him do the real, when did you play Ashley Larry? Was it the real real world? No. No, that was a World Series of Dice. It was a World Series of Dice. I'm not bringing that back. I'm not in control of that. I'm down for whatever

You know I'm saying I'm you know, who knows? You put it on the wall so you could tell That's not me. That's not me at all. Who is that if not you? Like I just said I look like Suge Knight That's not him. He's a little bit He's a little thick to be done with That's not me at all. He's a little thick?

Nope. Not even close to it. Torb will horrible resemblance of me. That is disrespectful. And I know. And that's another thing. I would never have lotion this whole this stuff. That whole picture is sinister. He said that he now he would be moisturized with like what the actual I moisturize. I'm saying in your new depiction of him. What would he moisturize with what would one of your boyfriends? What's right? I don't know Goes dark all the time. I don't know why it's doing that Because that's what y'all live for Sometimes for penises. Don't try to cover it up. I know it's penises. Don't try to hide it. Don't try to hide it. Why would you think it's penises? Because that's what y'all live for son.

That's what y'all live for. I have pitch meetings and creative meetings to ask how can we incorporate a penis into a conversation. Before this was years ago. Why would we ever do that? Bring that back. And you bring it back viral. Before TikTok get banned, you doing your last penis dance son.

You know. You know how to win. And then Envy, the last time I was here, you and him, you tried to embarrass me with a photo that you thought was gonna exploit me that I embraced and talked about blood and shit. And everywhere you go you get asked about that photo. I know, I know we friends. They asked you about it on Club Shaysay

and I ain't even seen the interview yet and I know they asked everybody. They asked me about it and I said, wait, y'all is here. How did you explain being between his legs? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I explained, I already explained being between his legs. Okay. But who's legs? I already explained being in the vicinity of his knees.

Whose knees? Whose knees? There was an artist that was on the, there was an artist that was on a yacht that happened to have his knees close to where my shoulder blades was. It was Russell Simmons, French Montana. If I go down, I'm telling everybody who was on the boat. Russell Simmons, French Montana, and Russell Simmons was sitting in this style, praying,

yoga, it was a whole bunch of people. So if I go down, y'all all coming with me. Cory Smith, you was there too, you was there. Charlamagne wanted to be there, so literally he was there. But more importantly, more importantly DJ Envy, it was something that brought to everybody's attention and you kind of like mumm's the word, right? You went on a different direction and the point of what I'm making is can you explain to the people what happened, specific details when you got flewed out by Bart Kelly. What happened? When you got flewed?

There's the MV in his flight miles. Nothing. Nothing happened? I guess I wasn't in style. Was there any music in the background? They left me no hotel. He didn't have a subtle like Candleburn is playing my mind's telling me no? It was nothing. Did you take pictures with him? Not him but you know how the flew pictures

be? I never met him. You never met him. He stood you up You know how fluid pitchers be it be It'd be this the fluid pitchers, okay, she like this. Oh, I'm in a gorilla I'm having my living my best life. You never see the man. It's always butt shots You always see the picture of the dinner date. They got there's always two plates You never see the dude hand and that is getting what the flute is about Also, unless he unless he plans to like exploit envy, it's not sex trafficking You can fly somebody out if you're not going to exploit them. Oh the intention

Yes Have you been flewed out it's sex trafficking. Okay, you say it says let's go to definition It says to cross the attention and I'll tell you personally I've never For the purpose of sexual exploitation transported someone with the intentions on having sex with them, but I will create the environment for you to have the intentions to have sexual intercourse for me Diddy's team came out and said they saw nine tapes and the tapes were consensual They said you were on one though. I wasn't I tried to get on one but they wouldn't let me go ahead

There is nobody that can, I'm maybe one person. No, there's nobody. But it don't have to be real. No. It could be three guys that come out today and say, man, I got it. You would choose three guys. You would choose three. Out of all the things you would choose, it would be three guys.

And I bet that your number is in their phone book. No. What character would you be though, if that the case if you were there if you attended? What if they say Ashie Larry? I played the fifth. I played the fifth. No I really want to know do people ask you to get into character like when you I say people because I don't know you know which way you go. No I won't they haven't done that but I remember years and years ago and this was at the height of the Chapelleappelle show I had relations with this uh woman uh with an accent right uh Irish accent she actually do Ashie Larry no no this was so funny after it was over after I hit the

glow right she said I can't believe I just f*** Ashie Larry What year do y'all grow up man? It's 2025 man. What year do y'all stop with the games? What is on my head? Is the penis on my head right now? Is that what you want? I knew. I knew y'all would do the penis and **** them.

Is that what you want? And it's like y'all do this by yourself on Netflix to chill and look at **** on the walls and **** it's not **** and nothing on you. I don't know what it is, but if I had to take a wild guess, I'm pretty sure it's a penis in these things. Stop playing with me, man. Stop playing. The lights are off.

What was the question you asked me? Oh, I was just asking, do you want to go back there? Go back where? The consensual video. No, man, please get down there. No, I don't want to go back there. You brought it back up. I was.

I'm telling you, this is what's going to happen. This one needs to run. I want to know something else. I want to know something else. I want to know something else. I want to know something else. I want to know something else. I want to know something. No man, please get down there. You brought it back up. I was. I'm gonna tell you, this is what's gonna happen. I want to know something else. You know what? This is what people, this is what, and this whole thing, what people don't want to deal with is the reality of what they think happened or what could happen. So I understand what you're saying, but me, I'm not concerned about it. I've never done anything illegal.

But if it's that fine line of what somebody back in the day thought was, we're gonna have a good time. I know there's people in the industry that have been like this, yo, what are you, you can say whatever you want. I'm not a slave. I don't have to lose. I ain't trying to get ahead of nothing.

I'm saying, first off, with all of this stuff. You're in the military, right? I was, I don't, I'm not gonna get. But they say people get pulled over. Shut the fuck up. Yes. For the record. I don't have the pressure that you have, Envy. I don't have trigger words that's gonna? I was, I don't, I'm not gonna get. What did they say if you ever get pulled over? Shut the f*** up. Yes. For the record. I don't have the pressure that you have, Envy.

I don't have trigger words that's gonna make you upset. I don't have trigger words either. I'm sorry to help you. Wait, when they call you in, I want everybody to know watching this, Lauren tried to move away from this, but the journalist Envy said, let's move on and you wanted to go back.

Real estate? Ha ha ha. Envy, get him! Get him! Real estate? I could say some other words, but I respect his family family too much I ain't gonna do that. Real estate is a trigger word. Oh let me guess another one. Don't do that.

You ain't even stay where any favorite salad is son. Toast. No. Donnell we appreciate you for joining us. I don't appreciate being here. Goodbye, Darnell. Peace. It's The Breakfast Club.

Why you do the evil laugh? No, I said young 90s. That's your vibe. Your energy is always young 90s. You know what I mean? Thank you. I love that. That's a compliment.

Alright, so I'm gonna start with this new Mac Miller project. The Mac Miller estate not only put out a new album called Balloonerism, but they also dropped a short film. But the record that I'm highlighting is called $5 Pony Rides. That sounds very fresh. I guess I usually don't like post, what do you call them, post-Humus albums. But for whatever reason, I guess since they took a lot of time before he, since he passed, it sounds fresh. It does sound good. Even on that, this is a throwback, that Abso project.

Remember he gave it to you early and then he let me listen to it. But there was a record on there with Mac Miller too. That was amazing. Max is a abso that I hope comes out at some point. What was the, you know, like did they just decide to do this because they had a lot of unreleased music or like is it? I don't know.

I didn't really, I ain't watched the short film yet. I'm gonna watch it this weekend. But I don't know. I think they just want to protect his legacy, which is understood. That's our guy, man. Mac used to, it's weird. Mac used to be up here early and then you know we started uh We all started at MTV 2 together because he had his reality show and we was doing all the guy called girl Cool stuff so we would always be in the same spaces all the time. So salute to my guys

Yes, um, but speaking of young 90s vibe. I'm gonna get into I would say my favorite group that's on the r&b side Called they they're dropping a project called Love Jones on Valentine's Day, but they've been releasing some singles and my favorite one so far is called Straight Up. You know what that reminds me of? She see money, y'all around me. Oh, crew? Yeah, it reminds me of that.

I look like a man. It's smooth, it's smooth. What is they going to do after Trump gets inaugurated? Because he said that under the Trump administration, it will be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders male and female they're gonna straighten up what are you gonna do? what are they gonna do? what? that's the name of the single right?

Trump ain't going for no pronouns man leave them alone what's up Dave what y'all gonna do? Dave what y'all gonna do? alright y'all are distracting the name for the music. That was great, great song. Great song. I'm just concerned about their future.

All right, all right. They gonna be fine. I'm really looking forward to their album. If you guys wanna send it to me early, I would love that too. Y'all know I'm a stan. Okay, so last week, ESTG dropped this project and my favorite record on there so far

is a joint with V's and Rhylo called My Love. Okay. Tough tune, EFTG. EFTG don't disappoint. He don't. Okay, and this is the last one. I'm gonna wrap it up with is Larry Juns dropping a new project. He dropped a single though leading up to it called January 14th. You know Larry's always smooth. I just wanna hug him. Damn! It was a deep record. That was a deep record. That was a deep record.

That's a long one. But Larry's like super P, super laid back usually. I don't know, maybe 2025 bringing different energy, but we'll see, the tapes coming soon. I've been meaning to go down to Larry June, Rabbit Hole, I mean, I listen to his music in Spurts and he's dope, but I've been really meaning to go down to Rabbit Hole, my guy really been telling me

And I want y'all to know when y'all go to YouTube and y'all watch the video and y'all see how I like to terrorize Donnell Rollins, understand he deserves it. Because see, what y'all don't see is the stuff that Donnell does on social media. Y'all don't see the stuff that Donnell does on my phone. Y'all don't see the stuff Donnell does on stage

at Radio City Music Hall, okay? So trust me, there is always gonna be revenge. He's always trying to get revenge on me, I'm always trying to get revenge on him. Okay, so now the balls in his court All right, and also shout to the cast of Harlem for stopping through yes Megan Good Tyler Leppley Grace Byer Shanique wish on day Shanique wish on day Jerry Johnson. Jerry Johnson. Yes, absolutely. It's the last season of Harlem, right? That's right. Yes, I'm so sad about that. Like I kept asking them. Why did they do that? Makes no sense. They do a lot of black shows like that. Oh my god, the show is so good like oh.

Well leave us on a positive note. The positive note is simply this, I reference one of my favorite books earlier, The Four Agreements, and I referenced the second agreement which is don't take things personally and I just want to expound on that. Whatever happens around you don't take it personally. Nothing other people do is because of you, it is because of themselves. All people live in their own dream, in their own mind. They are in a completely different world from the one we live in.

When we take something personally we make the assumption that they know what is in our world and we try to impose our world on their world. So don't take things personally. All right. Have a blessed day. John Stewart is back in the host chair at the daily show, which means he's also back in our ears on the daily show years edition podcast.
