Starting point is 00:03:22 For real life, real family. Oh let me Oh, the cover is dope. I just finished real life real family. And it's all about raising the cases. It's all about raising our kids. The second book took a little longer. We actually did it with a therapist. We talked about the different things with you know, giving the kids everything that they need and every child is different or they're once a different and we just talk about the different things with you know giving the kids everything that they need and every child is different All they're once a different and we just talk about the good the bad the ugly and everything we've been through and helpfully This could raise somebody with kids or somebody thinking about having kids So the book comes out in April April 15th and night. It's your chance to pre-order
Starting point is 00:03:58 We just finished the audiobook and it's all about you know How you should be as a unit like I'm sure with your family we talk about you know the, how you should be as a unit. Like I'm sure with your family, we talk about, you know, the most important thing is we are a unit. We tell everybody we are a unit. We move together. We have each other's backs. When mom ain't there, you represent the family. When dad's not there, we represent the family.
Starting point is 00:04:14 So we talk about that and how our family dynamic is. So do y'all break down like how y'all each kid is different and how you raise each kid? Because you got six of them. Yeah, yeah, no, we talk about- So that book should look like an encyclopedia. Yeah, but not only that, you know, people know my dad is a retired police officer and ex-military, so being raised under him,
Starting point is 00:04:35 it was his way or the highway. My wife was more patient, where her parents actually spoke to them about why they said no. My parents were just like, no, get the F out of my room. And I said, don't ask me why, none of that. That was my household. Yeah, so that dynamic of mixing that with the gear and the patience and how it works out, it actually worked out a lot better because the kids are more likely to talk to mom about
Starting point is 00:04:57 everything, whether it's about sex, whether they're having problems, whether it is, and it's a great dynamic. And it's a healthy balance between y'all. That's what's up. That's right. So the book comes out on the 15th. So pre-order it now, pre-order the audio book and we actually interviewed our kids as well. We had somebody interview them.
Starting point is 00:05:12 So it's real like, well, what do you think about mom? What do you think about dad? My three year old goes, dad farts a lot. I'm like, great. Put that in the book. You gotta put that in the book. Put that in the book, yes. Well, today on the show, David Banner will be joining us David Banner, you know, the rapper David Banner

What are we joining us Charlamagne to be here in a second and it's the Breakfast Club Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ envy just hilarious Charlamagne the be here in a second. And it's the Breakfast Club, good morning. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy Jess Hilarious. Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now ex New York Giant quarterback is signing with the Indianapolis Colts.
Starting point is 00:05:55 He's signing a one year deal, $14 million contract. Which is insane. Which is insane. Now Jess, he ain't do nothing for the Giants. They ain't wanna give Saquon that money. But somebody found money for 14 minutes. It's a lot of money. But good morning Morgan! Good morning, Envy! Jess Hilarious, Charlie the Giant. How y'all feeling this morning? I'm feeling good.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Envy sound mad. That's awesome. Yeah girl. They come to them Giants, yo. He be. But there's no way you should be still getting that much money. It doesn't even make sense. But anyway, it's no way you should still be a fan of the NFC East. I'm just saying. Maybe it's self distress. I'm just kidding.
Starting point is 00:06:35 All right, so let's get into it. The House is passing a six-month funding bill to prevent a government shutdown. The bill narrowly passed to 17 to 13 on Tuesday, but with all all but one Republican supporting the six month stop, stop gap measure. House Speaker Mike Johnson, who says the bill freezes funding and is responsible, says that, you know, people need to do the responsible thing. Let's hear more from House Speaker Mike Johnson, as he says the bill also falls on the Senate on the desk of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
Starting point is 00:07:04 he says the bill also falls on the Senate, on the desk of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. The Republicans stood together and we had one Democrat vote with us to do the right thing and that is to fund the government. He must determine whether he wants to fund the government, do the responsible thing, or whether he wants to shut the government down. And on the other side of the Iowa House Minority Leader, Hakeem Jeffrey says the funding bill will end up hurting Americans. Let's hear more from him. It is unacceptable and that is why there was a strong showing of opposition
Starting point is 00:07:33 amongst House Democrats. I don't understand why they can't find the financing for these operations. This happens every other year or every year and it seems like we never find the funding and it's something that can't happen The government can't shut down. So what is the real problem? And a matter it's probably an Matter of an agreement on where those funds go and you know that that type of thing So a proposal now heads to the Senate where its fate remains uncertain While Republicans do control a slight majority in the Senate, Kentucky's Rand Paul has made it clear that he is firmly against that bill.
Starting point is 00:08:06 So hopefully a shutdown can be averted, but the deadline is Friday night. So we will keep you posted. Meanwhile, President Trump is telling business leaders that his tariffs have a tremendously positive impact on the economy. He made the comments on Tuesday at a quarterly business meeting roundtable, which includes the heads of Apple, Walmart, GM, and JP Morgan Chase. In his remarks, Trump claimed that his recent tariffs against Canada, Mexico, and China will have, and they are having, a positive impact. Let's listen to those comments from President Trump.
Starting point is 00:08:39 The biggest win is not the tariff. That's a big win. That's a lot of money. But the biggest win is if they move into our country and produce jobs. That's a bigger win than the tariffs themselves. But the tariffs are going to be throwing off a lot of money to this country. Yeah. Okay. So the remarks come as stock values continue to fall. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost as much as 17, excuse excuse me 700 points on Tuesday before ending the trading day down 478 points prior to that you guys the the market pretty much what lost like nearly a thousand points so yeah and speaking of which the premier of Ontario Canada remember we spoke about him yesterday
Starting point is 00:09:19 imposing tariffs on electricity well he has decided to put a hold on his decision to impose tariffs on electricity and he has decided to put a hold on his decision to impose tariffs on electricity exports to the US. So yesterday, he announced a 25% surcharge on electricity that it supplies to parts of Michigan, Minnesota and New York. He said the suspension of the surcharge comes after US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick agreed to renewing trade talks. So he said he's, you know, people, the Trump administration is coming to the negotiating table and, you know, he's been calling out President Trump saying, hey, and apologizing also to the American people, you know, saying he doesn't want to do this, but you know, it is Trump's fault in regards to these tariffs. So Ford added, we have both agreed to let cooler heads prevail. Of course, President Trump has announced a doubling of tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum in response to the electricity surcharge. So we will again see what happens as a result of that.
Starting point is 00:10:10 And really quickly, if we got time, the Philadelphia Eagles will visit the President Trump at the White House to celebrate the Super Bowl win. This after White House uninvited the team in 2018 after their victory because of their protests of the national anthem. So owner Jeffrey Lurie also reportedly criticized Trump at the time. This year, Trump attended the Super Bowl ahead of the event and praised running back Saquon Barkley and quarterback Jalen Hurts. So the Eagles are headed to the White House and we will see what that visit looks like. So that's your front page news at seven, six a.m. Oh Lord, it's early today. I had energy yesterday,

There's only two kinds of brothers that have tried to request the president to get a four-year term for a $1,000 check.

Getting it off his chest. Have a good one. Get it off your chest. You wanna get some off your chest before we continue?
Starting point is 00:17:22 I do, I wanna talk to all the garbage truck drivers out there. So to all the garbage truck drivers out there, I respect y'all and your service. Thank you for keeping the streets clean. But y'all gotta stop blocking the roads in the morning. Okay, I understand you all have a job to do, but all of us are trying to get to our respective jobs too. And all I keep thinking about is,
Starting point is 00:17:39 what if I was an ambulance, okay, and had somebody in the back that was sick and dying and needed to get to the hospital. Did you see the picture I sent you this morning? I did see the picture. Listen, first of all, I'm going down one street, the garbage truck was blocking the street, but at least that garbage truck was giving people
Starting point is 00:17:54 a room to pass. I just don't have the type of car, you know what I'm saying, that can pass, because I got a 19, well, 2015 Cadillac Escalade, with 700,000 miles on it. So I couldn't drive past the garbage truck. But when I went to the next street, that garbage truck was disrespectful. Am I not lying how that garbage truck was parked?
Starting point is 00:18:11 It was. Describe how that garbage truck was parked. It was, well you know the streets of Paris, well you could usually pass the street, you could pass the garbage truck on the right or left. It was parked in a way, I guess vertical, where you couldn't park it, you couldn't pass it by any angle.
Starting point is 00:18:22 It was at an angle. Any angle you couldn't drive it. No, in the middle of the street. You'd have to go on the sidewalk to get around it. You see what I'm saying? And when people blowin' the horn, the garbage truck drivers is like doing they fist, like they blowin' the horn in the truck,
Starting point is 00:18:33 just taunting the people. Why y'all gotta be so disrespectful? Now that happens a lot in New York City. Come on garbage truck people. They don't allow you to do it. And a lot of times they can just pull up just a little bit where we can get by. Just think about the people.
Starting point is 00:18:45 Let's think about others. That's all I'm saying. Y'all are already on your job, doing your job. The rest of us trying to get to our jobs. Just think about those long lines of people that y'all causing. But salute to all the garbage truck drivers, sanitation workers out there. Now we got the latest with Lauren coming up. What are we talking about Lauren?
Starting point is 00:19:00 Yes, Wendy Williams, Guardian's attorney, Sabrina's attorney came out and and said Wendy's in line in the media. Thank you Alright we'll get to that next is the Breakfast Club. Good morning the Breakfast Club Morning everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren So we received a letter from Sabrina Morrissey, who is Wendy Williams' Sometimes you have a little bit every time. Well, it's the latest on the Breakfast Club. Don't talk to me. So we received a letter from Sabrina Morrissey, who is Wendy Williams' conservator. She wrote a letter? A guardian from her attorneys. So there's an attorney named Andrew Sully Jr. who sent over a letter and he outlined everything that they are alleging is inaccurate that has been in the media up until this point. They wrote
Starting point is 00:20:05 this. He said that there has been a lot of inaccuracies and misleading on truths in the media. So the court actually, who sealed everything and told Sabrina she could not make comments on stuff is allowing for certain things to be cleared up. And here's what they are clearing up. So when it comes to the guardianship, they say or they alleged that Sabrina as Wendy's guardian did not declare Wendy Williams to be legally incapacitated because no guardian has that power. That happens by a court and that's not just for Wendy's case that happens in every case
Starting point is 00:20:36 like this. And specifically for Wendy's case, it was put in place by the Supreme Court of New York City. Now they say when it comes to Wendy's medical condition, the incapacity in that determination, the guardian also does not determine that, that according to them, this happens by doctors and medical professionals.
Starting point is 00:20:55 And they alleged that in 2022 and 2023, Wendy was examined at two hospitals where they found frontal lobe atrophy. And they say it got worse according to these legal documents that they have in 2023 when she was diagnosed with a condition that causes progressive decline over time, which I'm assuming they're talking about the frontal dementia that we've been having conversations about. Now on Wendy's living conditions, they say that Wendy is currently living under the care that was deemed appropriate by a court based
Starting point is 00:21:26 on her diagnosis and based on what medical professionals are saying. They point out that where Wendy resides right now is an assisted living facility with spa treatments, workout room, 24-7 medical oversight, excellent food, a dining room, outside terraces. And that she's able to leave the facility and she has done so to shop, for meals, for medical appointments. When? Now, when it comes to Wendy being able to see her family, this law firm says or is alleging that Sabrina, the current conservator has never denied Wendy access to her family.
Starting point is 00:21:58 They say that Wendy has never been kept away from her family, that whenever she wants to see them or call them, she is able to. They're also able to come and visit her in New York City and that Wendy has been able to go and see family twice. Yo, but what's crazy is didn't you go there? Didn't you try to go there and it was kind of like a whole situation. Like you couldn't even get in, you had to lie,
Starting point is 00:22:21 say who you was and like, yeah. Now you're asking the right questions. That is what happened. That is what happened when I went there. And then on Wendy's money, they say Wendy's assets have been under professional management and are under court supervision and anytime money moves, so anytime there's a disbursement of any sort, this is reviewed and approved by the court. They also make a point to mention that Wendy is not working and has no source of earned
Starting point is 00:22:47 income. I don't know why that was put there, but they make it as a point to say that as well, too. I thought that was a little shady. And then on Sabrina as the guardian, they want to make it clear that Sabrina didn't ask for this job. It was given to her and it was given to her based on her amazing resume. She is a highly reputable, respected and regarded conservator with an unblemished record according to the letter and she takes the directions from the court. So every move she makes is a direction
Starting point is 00:23:14 from the court. And again, I just wanted to mention that up until this point and up until Vanity Fair Sabrina was not she was always given statements saying she could not respond because of how the gardening ship was set up. But a court said, said you know what we need you we need to clear up some things. So There's three sides to a story in this case It's a Wendy side is the guardian side and the truth and the truth will be revealed at some point But I do have questions for Sabrina one, you know You know, you're suing lifetime saying that Wendy wasn't in the right mind state to do that deal or do the show But you were her guardian then so why'd you allow her to do it? You know
Starting point is 00:23:48 also you say Wendy can come and go as she pleases but you have her on a floor where she needs a key to leave the floor even to enjoy some of those amenities you just were talking about. The spa and the restaurant. Yeah she needs a key to even just leave the floor and third what Jess said you know you said her family can visit whenever they want. Well when we sent her goddaughter up there, she wasn't able to see her. Not at all. And they didn't get in. But not only that, nobody's saying they want Wendy to run out of there right now.
Starting point is 00:24:17 All we're saying is let her go to the doctor, let her prove to herself the correct way, but y'all don't even give her the opportunity. She had to damn near beg the police. Throw the letter there. Please run, no, I want her to run up there, run up out of there right now, like no, please, this is crazy. Yeah, she had to beg to leave just to get a doctor
Starting point is 00:24:36 to see if she was right, and she passed with eight flying colors, right? And that's the biggest untruth to me, and that's what I would want to ask Sabrina, is the biggest untruth is they and that's what I would want to ask Sabrina is the biggest untruth is they said Wendy was incapacitated. Yes. But she's clearly not. Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:51 So why are you as her guardian letting that story be out there? We're all we're talking to her. And they do mention that the guardian and the court has asked for another evaluation of Wendy and I will say that I also reached out to the attorneys on the A&E side, the Roberta Kaplan's team And I asked them what's happening right now with that and they say the same thing They're just waiting on that evaluation to happen again because right now that even that lawsuit is on hold until everybody's waiting on this This new evaluation and I'm trying to figure out what Wendy did the other day at the hospital can be in place of that
Starting point is 00:25:19 Or not, but I haven't got an answer to that, but I did talk to One more thing Lauren. Go ahead. Tell them that letter was sent when? The letter was sent March 6th. So before the events of yesterday. Yeah, before the events of yesterday. We received this letter on March 6th. But yeah, so Wendy's side is saying that
Starting point is 00:25:37 the guardian is utilizing the judge as a scapegoat to consider the reality of the guardian, to consider the reality that the guardian has the ability to suggest easing the restrictions to En envy's point on Mrs. Williams or to free Wendy from the most stringent guardianship that a competent individual has been subjected to as a guardian ignores the obvious Wendy Williams is not incapacitated. So to the effect of what you know, yeah, it's just asking for things to be eased up a bit in less. That's all I would ask. I would want to ask Sabrina like the you know the biggest untruth that I've heard in this whole situation is Wendy was
Starting point is 00:26:07 incapacitated yeah but she's not but why is as hurt why is she as a guardian like that be out Wendy's asking hey I'm not let me test let me go to a doctor let me prove it and they won't even allow her to prove it well that's the craziest thing anyone talk to the cats yet? There's a type of soil in Mississippi called Yazoo clay. It's thick, burnt orange, and it's got a reputation. It's terrible, terrible dirt. Yazoo clay eats everything, so things that get buried there tend to stay buried.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Until they're not. In 2012, construction crews at Mississippi's biggest hospital made a shocking discovery. Seven thousand bodies out there or more. All former patients of the old state asylum. And nobody knew they were there. It was my family's mystery. But in this corner of the South, it's not just the soil that keeps secrets. Nobody talks about it.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Nobody has any information. When you peel back the layers of Mississippi's Yazoo clay, nothing's ever as simple as you think. The story is much more complicated and nuanced than that. I'm Larysen Campbell. Listen to Under Yazoo Clay on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

Starting point is 00:29:02 Hey, it's Alec Baldwin. This season on my podcast, Here's the Thing, I speak with California Governor Gavin Newsom. I watch Fox. I pay attention to Newsmax, One American News. I don't turn my back to the critics, but there is a sort of California derangement syndrome out there that is just sort of ridiculous. This notion that this is the only state that has challenges.
Starting point is 00:29:23 It's just comedic, but it's damaging. We record-breaking tourism last year. We have a surplus again. We have a state with population growing again. You wouldn't know that. That's not prevalent. It's not part of the discussion. It's been engulfed by the fires.
Starting point is 00:29:36 It's been engulfed by the fires. It's a failed state, California. But for me, it's a pride for me. Again, as a guy who lives here, who cares about the state, is to make a case anew for it. And I'm a little clintony about it. There's nothing wrong with it. It can't be fixed by what's right with it. Listen to the new season of Here's the Thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or
Starting point is 00:29:58 wherever you get your podcasts. No, but I haven't talked to the cats yet. But in Vanity Fair, Sabrina said that the cats actually were given to a home because Wendy didn't want to split the cats up because Wendy could only have one cat in the spot that she was staying Yeah, so, you know, that's what their legend happened with the cats, but I haven't you know, I mean I didn't tap into the litter box I haven't reached out to sources close yet. I need you to get that. Got you. Okay, you got sources at the litter box We figure things out over here, baby. That's what we do. If you calling the litter box. Another random observation.

Starting point is 00:31:12 Good morning y'all. So you heard the caller, you know, basically voicing his gripes about daylight savings time. So I just wanted to drop this in real quick. So most Americans, of course, they move their clocks forward for daylight savings time. The hospitals, did you know they see a significant increase in heart attack related visits following daylight savings time? So the exact reason isn't actually clear but experts think it's the lost hour of sleep It plays a big role in disrupting the body's natural rhythm
Starting point is 00:31:36 So maybe try to catch a nap, you know where you can throughout this week if you can to try to just regulate and Reset that bio clock. So that's some good information. I never thought about that. Yeah, yeah just try to get a little bit of extra sleep. Usually what they say is leading up to the day try to you know get some extra sleep, get some extra rest in just to you know again get yourself your body used to that that new clock. Switching gears the first transgender person elected to Congress is being misgendered on Capitol Hill in a House meeting
Starting point is 00:32:09 can that happen on Tuesday, Delaware Democrat Sarah McBride was was introduced by committee chairman Keith self as Mr. McBride. He's following the law. He's following the law. There was an executive order. The president said that there's only two genders Morgan he's following the law. It was an executive order. The president said that there's only two agendas, Morgan. He's following the law. He's following the law.
Starting point is 00:32:27 I'm just reporting on it. Look, McBride then responded to the Texas Republican by saying, thank you, Madam Chair. So, you know, things got a little petty. Massachusetts Democrat Bill Keating then came to the defense of McBride, asking self to repeat his introduction. So let's take a listen to that exchange. Now, as the representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride. Thank you, Madam Chair. Ranking member Keating also wonderful.
Starting point is 00:32:51 Mr. Chairman, could you repeat your introduction again, please? Yes, it's a, it's a, we have set the standard on the floor of the House, and I'm simply. What is that standard,. chairman this would you repeat what you just said I introduced a duly elected representative from the United States of America please I will the representative from Delaware mr. McBurton chairman you are out of order have you no decency I mean I've come to know you a little bit, but this is not decent. We will continue this here.
Starting point is 00:33:28 You will not continue it with me unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way. See, he being funny. Yeah, so, South said... How many... He being funny. He wanted to hear him say Mr. McBride again. He being funny, man.
Starting point is 00:33:40 He being funny. Oh, man. So, South said he was following the standard of the house floor after Keating asked Self if he had any decency as you heard in the audio the chairman banged his gavel and quickly adjourned the meeting. So you know when stuff like this happens y'all we ain't getting anything accomplished. So that's not good. Hey she gave it right back to him though.
Starting point is 00:34:00 She called him Madam Chair. Madam Chair. Yeah. But I wonder right for people who got fired from misgendering people that didn't say that they get their jobs back Because it's an executive order now. It's an executive order I don't know what you want that man to do The man is following the law like soon as that person would have said yo you out of order I would have been like no It's actually an executive order. Hmm. What are we supposed to do in this situation? See nobody tells us what to do in these situations This is the thing though. How can they not like get enlisted in the army?
Starting point is 00:34:27 Remember you stopped them from like being in the army, but they can be in the what is that a Congress? Congress? Congress. All right, how can they do that? But they can't like I don't get it. Probably already elected. You know, you can't you can't you're elected by your constituents. Oh, so this person been one of them. Yep, sorry, my bad. Oh, all right. Okay. By one of them you mean a member of Congress. No, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, obviously, yeah. But yeah, okay. Because she been one of they, but now she's one of them. They been, yeah, been both. Okay, got it. Okay, y'all. So, moving forward, protests are ongoing calling for the release of
Starting point is 00:35:01 former Columbia grad student and pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil. The Trump administration noted his arrest by ICE over the weekend was first of many. Khalil, a permanent resident with a green card, helped organize an anti-Israel protest that started last spring, or, excuse me, spoke at that protest as well. Hundreds of people gathered at Manhattan's Washington Square Park on Tuesday, listing their demands and speaking up for Khalil's rights. Now, in the So again, Khalil was arrested over the weekend and is being held at a detention center in Louisiana. He hasn't been charged with an official, like he hasn't been charged with a crime. A deportation hearing is set for today. So according to federal law though, you must see a judge for an arraignment without necessary
Starting point is 00:35:59 delay if you are in federal custody at a preliminary hearing and within 14 days, 21 days if you are not in custody. So again, he is being held. He has not been charged with anything and he has this deportation hearing set for today. So again, we will continue to keep you posted as what happens there. And you know, if you believe, like I said yesterday, if you believe in freedom of speech,
Starting point is 00:36:20 if you believe in freedom of protest, you should be raising holy hell about that situation. I don't have to agree with what you're saying But I can agree with your right to say it and if he doesn't have the right to say it then eventually none of us Will have the right to say a lot of things Social media post I saw that was like let's get this straight that the president of the United States has sent someone sent law Enforcement to round up someone for speaking. Yeah, we're speaking. That's great. That's it.. For speaking. That's crazy. That's it.

People that fly fly Southwest Airlines Salute to Tesla and Figaro. That's her favorite Airlines Southwest airline known for its bags fly free policy. It's making some changes. So starting May 28th You will now have to pay for your bags. All right, so I just want to put that out there
Starting point is 00:37:19 You know anybody that flies out what you fly South West Jess Morgan Charlemagne Depends I fly there sometimes because they they famous for getting you there when you need to be there when you don't want no layovers. So yeah. I was going to say they are, I like Southwest. I feel like they've been low key under the radar, like one of the best airlines, like low key. They're not about to be though because when everybody got to pay for their bags, we might
Starting point is 00:37:41 as well go to Delta. All the time. But they were also talking about, you know, ending their or starting assigned seating as well with that too. So I will say in September, CEO Bob Jordan said that having no bag fees was a huge consumer advantage that they had. So yeah, well, they also, like I said, they're also set to end open seating at the first half of 2026. But it's so funny because Amtrak actually poked fun at Southwest yesterday saying, guess what? We're the only ones doing free baggage now.
Starting point is 00:38:09 And I think that this is going to be a shift in the way that we travel. You know, people will probably start taking buses and trains.

Starting point is 00:39:29 There are a lot of things that are changing in my life. I'm making a whole lot of money. You've been doing that? That's a great thing. No, it's different now. I like to hear that. I'm going to lie to you, though. You know what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:39:39 I just shook your pockets down. You know what I'm talking about. 400,000 fell out this man's pocket, man. Here's all that's just changed. That's just changed. No, man, but the thing is, man know what I'm talking about. 400,000 fell out this man's pocket, man. He's like, oh, that's just change. That's just change. No, man, but the thing is, man, I wanted to thank y'all because a lot of times we invest our time
Starting point is 00:39:52 and you all have built a certain crowd and a certain rapport with people. So for you all to give me the opportunity to grow and turn into this thing, because this is sort of sad, but Prince died. You know, as much as that hurts me, it did open up the opportunity for me to be the sexiest on this planet, and it has happened.
Starting point is 00:40:11 And the Breakfast Club has allowed me to slide into that place without. Don't you start wearing the mass IGs now. Don't you start now. Was this the energy homegirl found on that NAACP red carpet? That was the sexiest ever energy? You tell us, Lawrence.
Starting point is 00:40:24 I mean. Let me tell you something about that. I sexy energy. You tell us Lauren. I mean let me tell you something about that. I do want to clear this up though is that people think that I'm joking about my admiration for black women. I'm dead serious and what some people are uncomfortable with they're not used to a black man giving admiration and I don't want anything from you just because I think that you're beautiful just because I speak about you know how I feel about the black woman in general I don't want anything from you but to let you know how I feel and sometimes we don't believe in ourselves and it's hard to really think that there is a man that really really feels that way without it having some type of game connected to
Starting point is 00:41:00 it because bro I'll say this and nobody ever noticed it since I've been in college SGA president at Southern University I have consistently for the connected to it. Because bro I'll say this and nobody ever noticed it since I've been in college SGA president at Southern University I have consistently for the most part outside of my actual art been the same man. Consistently I have never sold a lot of people out. I've never done anything flawed and it's like when we do something they either try to make a joke of it or poke you know when they when I came out and say I'm ready to be married. You know, people found a way to poke at that.
Starting point is 00:41:28 I thought you said, you know, not having any diseases, not whooping on nobody, not having 4,000 kids. I thought that was amazing and awesome. You know, so for me, I am again grateful. You talked about it. I did see people getting on you about this. Why now at the age of 50 do you think you're ready to settle down? Alright, peep this now.
Starting point is 00:41:46 So people talk about love languages, right? I told a young lady this and it shocked her. I said, what are your main love languages? What do you see in one out of a man? She said I want him to be successful and I want him to spend time. How? I'm a f***ing activist? A top tier producer,
Starting point is 00:42:05 a top tier rapper, actor. I do more than most people do in their one career in my five or four or five careers. If you want me to be successful, when in the f*** do I have time? People haven't noticed my 10 year run. Think about this dude, when I wasn't putting out like a pimp,
Starting point is 00:42:24 I was producing Wayne or Chris Brown or Maroon 5 or Quincy Jones. Quincy Jones? I did that. Me and Warren Campbell. Or I was acting, people forget Black Snake Mone. It's funny they think that I'm just starting this. I've done 38 films or television shows right? One of the top people on the speaking circuit right when do I have time so then if I were to get a wife she'll be at home I'll be an absent provider and then people talk about I didn't raise my kids or didn't have time with my wife we have to choose what it is we want to do but usually if you want something that bad you have to sacrifice that other thing that you want it the most
Starting point is 00:43:07 But the cool thing is when I do find that she don't have to want my kids won't have to I'd be able to go to They football games. I'd be able to take years out to make sure that they alright So I just hate what people say because I love black folks so much and I can't act like it don't bother me Envy it does, you know why I was gonna ask you did the marriage conversation bother you because it's kind of backwards for people to be upset when you're accomplishing you can devote that time they're like bro so you don't rent like they made it almost like a They made it not almost they made it a negative thing to say I'm ready now because I can devote the time energy How did that make you feel and I'm doing superhero movies?
Starting point is 00:43:41 But how you gonna be out here you fit you fit you. Y'all know that don't work with my job. You f***ing with my money. Why are you doing that? Cuz I look. Sweetheart, do me a favor. I know you're used to gazing at mortals. Close your eyes. Open them. About the closest you're gonna get to God. Mm. Okay. That happened. Yeah. So, it's-
Starting point is 00:44:02 I'm feeling the carpet vibes, I get it. No, no, no, it's not carpet. It's just a stop, baby. Wait, do you feel like the pushback came mostly from women or men on the marriage competition? I never heard anything from men. I actually have to say that something happened recently that I don't want to talk about,
Starting point is 00:44:18 and black men stood up for me. They really, really stood up for me. Like, my family called me and said, man, go look in the comments, bro. Like, black men are saying, like, he the one that always stands up. He was the one that was at Katrina. He was the one that when this happened and that, why are we doing this to him? You know, and what I'll say about the black woman is that my resurgent is because of the black woman
Starting point is 00:44:40 and their love and admiration for me. And usually it's just one person. See, we don't read the comments. T-Pain taught me this. And that's somebody that I have love and admiration for. He is one of the premier people in our culture. We should treat him better. I just want to say that.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Shout out to Ali Siddique too. One of my favorite comedians in the whole wide planet, bro. That's my homie. That we should just make sure that we do better with treating each other and respecting each other. And the black woman has done that for me. It's just a lot of loud negative voices. It's one or two people.
Starting point is 00:45:15 And what I will say is black women will tell somebody else about their David Banner and I just have to find a way to group those people together. And I've started a company called Banner Vision, my movie company. We're about to do sci-fi movies. And I'm really, really excited about it. And it's funny because I want to do a movie that's similar to Love, Joan.
Starting point is 00:45:36 And people would say, David Banner, I thought you were doing sci-fi. I said, well, isn't Black Love in the media right now? Science fiction? Because we damn sure don't see it. That's my wife's favorite movie You know love Jones and color purple and I really want to do it with Jill Scott Oh cuz like I want a different body type. I want a different type of sexy Jill Scott is sexy in a way that beautiful. Oh my god. Just like she's all aura
Starting point is 00:46:01 She from Philly but she got that Mississippi. Oh Just like she's all or she from Philly, but she got that Mississippi. Oh And um, you know just on just on the low I should see if she want me to talk about it too late. I'm actually helping them with our album right now Would you that's all I could say when I stole Jill Scott and it has been one of the most eye-opening Because I only really produce you know, I'm saying people that I love or care for, or young artists that I really believe in. Music has taken a lot away from my spirit. Why, good or bad? It's the business of it.
Starting point is 00:46:32 And because we have gone into streaming, it's forcing the more talented people out. Because as a businessman, it don't make no sense for me to spend all the money that I spend. Most people don't spend money on music. Watch this, they have taken away American society society and we have allowed them to do this. I've taken away any hustle that we can do in becoming a millionaire or a billionaire in a lifetime.
Starting point is 00:46:55 You know what I mean, I do, I talk about that all the time, especially when you're black. Music? They tried to take away movies, but they were still making a lot of money off of that. So they didn't talk, because think about this, as much as they went to war about movies, they had just done the same thing to music. They had just taken all of the money, they took the foundation, they put AI on top of it. They were trying to do the same thing to music.
Starting point is 00:47:17 I mean, movies and white folks are like, no, we still making a lot of money. Y'all can't do that to us yet. Dope, and I'm not saying to sell dope, but anything that we could do to make money and catch up with them they have taken it away from us and we run right behind them and let them do it every time. Family business New Orleans is on BET plus it's very important for you to watch my name is David Vanna. We got more with David Ben and when we come back

We're still kicking it with David Banner Charlamagne I saw you in the interview said black people don't take care of our OG So you don't want to be an OG in the black community because we don't take care of our elders We don't take care of our leaders. Yeah, I tend to agree with you my brother Yeah, it's it well, but you can't help it if you don't know Gee, you know what I said, what else you you gonna be cuz you there for a lot of people

I want your money and your attention I want the same thing you give white people They give me your money and attention if you're not giving me I'm not an OG. I said this in that same interview. I was debating one time. I said, do you all do black people think I'm the antithesis of Trump? And they said, yes, I do. The opposite, right? Okay. Well, then that means I should have as much money from the black community as Trump gets from the white community. If you love me that way. But we say one thing
Starting point is 00:48:43 and do the other. Oh, we want positive music, but you don't pay for positive music Oh, we want a leader, but you don't take care of your leaders in that same clip. It was crazy I don't know if you saw this it went sort of viral They put that part where they said I don't want to be an OG I want to be an OG because you don't take care of your elders Then they cut to I believe Malcolm X's daughter and somebody asked her do you think that the black community took care of your family and she said I don't believe so. So why would I want to be some why would our kids want to be a king when we allowed the
Starting point is 00:49:14 other one to get killed. Kids don't that's one of the reasons why I'm so fly that's one of the reasons why when you know I'm whipping the Ferraris and I'm whipping the Lamborghinis on purpose because when kids usually see somebody conscious they broke Why we don't have to we give everybody else our disposable money? Even if every black person gave this is something I'm gonna try me and you we're gonna talk about this Think about how powerful this show is right and I say here go my cash out. My name is David Banner I want to shoot a seven million dollar movie. Let's raise the money right now,
Starting point is 00:49:46 on the Breakfast Club right now. Here go my cash app, I ain't gotta go through nobody else, I'm going to the people. That's true power. But are we willing to really do that? Because most of it comes from self hate. I don't believe that I'm so high there, David Banner called himself a God.
Starting point is 00:50:03 How dare David Banner look that good? that, you know what I'm saying, my wife and my daughter and all the women around me really want to have as much sex with him as they possibly can but I don't know if it's possible. The way he just looked at me I was like, what is happening right now? You sweating man? I'm not sweating, I just, it was the intentional look, it was a piercing look. I'm like, you know what you're doing. You're stuttering.
Starting point is 00:50:27 But doesn't that feel good though, seriously? Yeah, it's very intentional. 100%. It's intentional in what I would want to do. Maybe I am sweating. I don't know. You are sweating. Just pat. I think I'm glowing, but that's a whole other conversation. Do you feel like your love and commitment to the black community affects your mental health? Hell yeah!
Starting point is 00:50:47 Affects my money, affects my relationships. I fell in love once with a woman that wasn't 100% black, but she didn't look black. Dr. Umar would not have approved. And, but I'm not, that part I don't worry about. Because we live our lives for other people. Only thing I give a fuck about is being happy. You know what I'm saying? we live our lives for other people. Only thing I give a f**k about is being happy. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:51:06 We live our lives for outside people and to be honest with you, I probably should have stayed with her. I would have been a lot happier but I cared too much about the perception of what my people thought and I shouldn't have done that. I should have just did what was best for me. You know, I want to talk to you. You talk about therapy. You know, I wanna talk, you talk about therapy, you know, I love therapy,
Starting point is 00:51:26 I love just being on a journey of healing. And I saw you say you had to overcome some mental health issues, and physically you've always pretty much kept yourself together. What made you realize you had to get it together mentally and emotionally? Bro, this last time I went through it, dog,
Starting point is 00:51:40 it was the first time in my life that I thought that I may not come out of it. I've been through a lot People these kids say they want to be famous But imagine coming from the streets and where we from we don't allow people in y'all know this I didn't smile the first two years of my career the Mississippi the album days. We don't smile where we from Well, let you do therapy. Um, my mentor David Moody he owns one of the most successful black construction companies
Starting point is 00:52:07 in the United States. And I had a mentor, it was actually a woman, and she came to me one day and she was like, I can't do nothing with you no more. And I was like, what? She said you need a black man in your life. And so this right after my dad died, she introduced me to Mr. Moody. And then Mr. Moody became my mentor. He was really open to me.
Starting point is 00:52:25 And it's funny I was talking to my publicity team and this is something that I want to say and y'all tell me if it's the same with y'all. I didn't talk to my homeboys about what was going on with me. Like I just recently had a conversation with my friends about anxiety. I'm like dude I've been in the streets tough tough why the **** am I having anxiety about **** that's not life threatening. Been dealing with it my whole life. It made me feel soft. I'm why the f*** am I having anxiety about f*** that's not life threatening? Been dealing with it my whole life. It made me feel soft. I'm like what the f*** am I tripping for? I was on a really big show recently and had a f***ing anxiety attack. Me dog, I'm like equalizing. I can't tell y'all. They're gonna be looking for it, they're gonna be looking for it. Let me tell you. But I had a straight out anxiety attack but then I realized how important it was for me to have a better team
Starting point is 00:53:08 Cuz I was doing too much bro I was doing that accounting handling the guns dealing with folks in the streets and you know, I'm always talking to people I had to get a bet. Huh? I'm not supposed to say gun Oh my god, my gun's illegal. They registered. You don't need the hands of the gun. Yeah, anyway. But I was just shooting, I was just training. Anyway, but what I was saying was that, you know, and I wasn't talking to my friends.
Starting point is 00:53:36 And Mr. Moody said, they're not your friends if you can't talk to them. Because in the streets in Jackson, you don't trust nobody. I don't care who it is. So I had always been taught to not talk about it and just hold it all in. And y'all, this is very personal. My cortisol levels was so high that it was eating my body up.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Like that's how stressed I was, man. And it was killing me. And so Mr. Moody said, just talk to your friends. And I called up my five Titus homeboys And it was crazy cuz it was like they were waiting on me to talk I was like my toughest homeboy one of my toughest homeboys. He from Tulsa, Oklahoma. I call him I was like a B right. He ever had an anxiety attack. He's like And like now we talk and it's crazy cuz everybody trip I'd be on the phone my homeboy. I love you dog
Starting point is 00:54:23 I love you with all my heart, bro I'm gonna talk to you later because we don't know if they gonna live You know I'm saying bro, so I had to do it man and because I'm you know outwardly tougher than most people I can say stuff to these children that most people are scared to say I can say I had anxiety type that won't stop me from choking you you know I'm saying that won't stop me from putting these legal That won't stop me from choking you. You know what I'm saying? That won't stop me from putting these legal firearms But no man, I'm grateful to God though because think about it that now draws us closer So for me to stand up as a man and say yeah y'all I'm all of these things But I'm also not perfect I don't know if y'all saw that clip that clip was super viral this young lady asked she said David Benner
Starting point is 00:55:04 You got it sewed together and I stopped I said no, baby. I'm a wreck. She was like no she couldn't believe it She's like no That's like yeah, baby And I'm only telling you that I'm a wreck so that whenever you become a wreck You know that you can still get up put on some clothes and keep it moving every day When y'all see me vibrating when y'all see me talking to you It's because I am healed and I'm gonna do everything that I possibly can to be a consummate example of what a man looks like in America
Starting point is 00:55:30 and I hope that I make y'all proud. All right we got more with David Banner when we come back it's the Breakfast Club good morning. Good morning everybody it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club we're still kicking it with David Banner actor rapper and activist all right Charlamagne? I wanna ask you one more question before you go. What's more treacherous, the music industry, Hollywood, or the streets? I think it's definitely not the streets.
Starting point is 00:55:54 I think the streets, you know what it is. You know what you're getting. It's clear. And that's what I, I tell people this all the time. My preference is Mississippi white people. And they say why? For Mississippi white person loves you you they would die for you For Mississippi white person doesn't like you. They'll try to kill you Unlike you living up here next to a white person and working with them every day and they smiling in your face
Starting point is 00:56:17 And then it's time for you to retire your pension gone the industry and they've been smiling in your face all the time At least I know what it is and And it's so funny, man. I fell into believing that this construct that we call the music industry and the movie industry that it's any different. It's no different. It's oppressive. It's built for you to fail. And that's one of the reasons why a lot of people get mad at me because as a producer, think about it, I probably lost 20, 20 30 million I'm one of the top producers and I never put out an artist And the reason why I never put out artists is because I care about human beings and I know the game is about throwing 35 people lives on the wall and you have to become callous in order to do that that's the reason why hustlers do so so good and
Starting point is 00:57:03 In the music industry because they've done so much on the streets that they've already become callous so being callous and this easy you know what I had to do out in front of my grandma house I had to serve my uncle and you think I give a fuck about this music easy I care about people if I what you I mean it one of your friends and I whisper in your ear and tell you who it is, I had to tell him you might have to rethink our friendship. Because I'm serious, if I say I f*** you, I mean it.
Starting point is 00:57:31 So if you come in town, it ain't that you gotta check in with me, but I wanna see my friend. I'm excited. I really think we homies. I don't throw that s*** around bro. So for me, I'll say at least you know what the streets are. It is what it is. you know what it is. It ain't personal, let's keep it moving.
Starting point is 00:57:49 What I do like about the movies is that usually as an actor, if I step on set, my check there. And so it is what it is. I might not get much on the back end until I'm able to negotiate at that level. But I know this amount of money, I can run with this money and I'm gone. It ain't personal, you know what I'm able to negotiate at that level. But I know this amount of money, I can run with this money and I'm gone. It ain't personal, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:58:07 But what I will say is that I plan on being one of the best actors who ever touch the screen. I'm very serious about black art. I really think, you know, as much as I love music, if people can't see it, people don't understand one of the reasons why the West Coast popped off the way that they did is because they had an hour and a half long video to go with the music. When Snoop and them came out, Dre and them came out, what else did they have? Menace to society, boys in the hoods.
Starting point is 00:58:36 So like they had all of that and we really didn't believe that it was that until we saw the movies and then we had the music oh for real because people could say what they want to they weren't smoking like that until Snoop came out until we saw it on the screen was like yo and if you think about the south we still haven't had that one movie nope that properly depicts the south nope if you really think about the south right and i always tell i tell people this they they use us for cheap labor because we still don't have our Will Smith we still don't have our Queen Latifah we're very close to it we still don't have our ice cube yet and as much as we talk stuff until we can cut a check from where we stand
Starting point is 00:59:17 then it's still New York and LA so like for me that's what I want to do I want to cut a check I don't want to beg for DEI I want to give you the job and we ain't got to worry about them because even in the strike y'all and I know they don't want me to talk about this but how dare someone try to take away your whole livelihood take away your likeness show you that they want to cut everything every tie that you have to sustainable lifelong generational wealth they're gonna cut that away from you and then because they give you some scraps now we okay? Like when Tip and Ernestine boycotted Houston's in Atlanta I still ain't been there I still
Starting point is 00:59:55 not going back. Once somebody show me what they really really mean and how they feel about me I ain't never going back. F*** you for life forever until you show me in your efforts over time that you have changed. So for me, y'all, like, when do we start identifying? And this is one thing that I want to say about the kids. This is what I love about the young revolutionaries.
Starting point is 01:00:16 They don't talk about the man, the man. No! Edward Jenkins, who lives at 156 Solid Street, and won't say, yeah, let's go get that mother- Let's talk about this board member. Let's specifically go to his house. That's revolutionary. That's that we should do. Family business, New Orleans.
Starting point is 01:00:36 Let's get banned out of here. Oh, yeah. They ain't even been in the- They ain't even gonna say something about family business. They ain't even been in the- I've seen it. I've seen it. You're great in it.
Starting point is 01:00:44 Lila Roshan, I love her, love the dynamic. But I wanted, because when I watched that, and I know before you talked about love and acting so much it almost made you leave music, you're not thinking about doing that again, right? I just stepped away from music. I'm almost to the point financially, I'm very close. I want to get back to making music like when we made it in high school. I can put out music and it don't really matter. I can just do it from a very pure place. I spent a lot. I still
Starting point is 01:01:09 mix and master. I still pay artists. I still pay the bass players. So like music is expensive to make and black people give their money to tech companies. They don't give it to the artist. That's so stupid to me. People who don't even care about music. But like to be honest with you bro, every time I go back to music is when I get depressed I start feeling that way again and I feel less free so I said this in the interview if God is constantly saying son every time you go over there you get hurt why the f*** keep going over there so like you know bro like the God Box 2 is probably my best album, even better than the first one.
Starting point is 01:01:46 So many people jumped on. Griselda bro, they whole clique jumped on the album for me bro. Shoot bro, you name it, they on it. Tip, 2 Chainz, just everybody came through for me. Raheem. But I just feel like man, with the movies like I told you on the West Coast I can show people how I want them to think. I want to lead this interview with saying this. I think that black people look at freedom the same way they look at death. Death may be better.
Starting point is 01:02:17 We don't know. But the fact that we don't know we don't want to try it out. So it's the same thing with freedom. Until they know what freedom looks like we got to show them what it looks like. Think about our iPhone. If you look at a Star Trek, besides teleportation, all that we can do on our iPhone now. That's what sci-fi is.
Starting point is 01:02:36 It's preparing us for a future. I said this man, it was a young black girl who came in crying uncontrollably. Her dad say, what's wrong? Why are you crying? She said, daddy, are there gonna be any black folks in the future? He said, why? She said, because I was watching the Jetsons and I didn't see any. So as much as we put out good music, if people don't know what that looks like, it don't matter. Banner Vision, I love y'all, I appreciate it. Make sure that y'all go and stream and look at Family Business. You can
Starting point is 01:03:03 look at all the episodes like we like to do. Even though y'all, we need y'all go and stream and look at Family Business. You can look at all the episodes like we like to do. Even though y'all, we need y'all to watch it every week so we can have those elongated stats that we need. Because if you look at it in one sitting, then we're only gonna get that credit for that day or for that week. But what I'll tell you is like put on Family Business, when you, Family Business New Orleans, when you cleaning up up and just let it stream all day when you cook it
Starting point is 01:03:28 Just do that for me when you cook it even if you don't watch it cuz I'll be honest with y'all I there's some black movies that come out. I'll pay for the ticket and then go watch Avengers I sneak in Avengers like like I did back in the day. I'm just being honest with you I'm getting my friend between this and the guns you carrying in the club, you gotta stop telling on yourself. You know why? No, I'm telling them what I want them to do. If they're gonna pay for a banner vision and then they go watch something else, I'm with that, oh, give me the bread.
Starting point is 01:03:53 What'd I say, give me the bread and your attention. David Banner, ladies and gentlemen. Fight Night 2, check the banner out on Fight Night. Yeah, something. And an equalizer with Queen Latifah. I'm on that. Hey y'all, but seriously, y'all, thank y'all. Thank you. I appreciate y'all. There's a type of soil in Mississippi called Yazoo clay.
Starting point is 01:04:09 It's thick, burnt orange, and it's got a reputation. It's terrible, terrible dirt. Yazoo clay eats everything, so things that get buried there tend to stay buried. Until they're not. In 2012, construction crews at Mississippi's biggest hospital made a shocking discovery. Seven thousand bodies out there or more. All former patients of the old state asylum. And nobody knew they were there.
Starting point is 01:04:37 It was my family's mystery. But in this corner of the South, it's not just the soil that keeps secrets. Nobody talks about it. Nobody has any information. When you peel back the layers of Mississippi's Yazoo clay, nothing's ever as simple as you think. The story is much more complicated and nuanced than that. I'm Larysen Campbell.

Starting point is 01:06:41 Hey, it's Alec Baldwin. This season on my podcast, Here's the Thing, I speak with California Governor Gavin Newsom. I watch Fox. I pay attention to Newsmax, One American News. I don't turn my back to the critics, but there is a sort of California derangement syndrome out there that is just sort of ridiculous. This notion that this is the only state
Starting point is 01:07:02 that has challenges, it's just comedic, but it's damaging. We record-breaking tourism last year. We have a surplus again. We have a state with population growing again. You wouldn't know that. That's not prevalent. It's not part of the discussion. It's been engulfed by the fires.
Starting point is 01:07:16 It's been engulfed by the fires. It's a failed state, California. But for me, it's a pride for me, me again as a guy who lives here, who cares about the state, is to make a case anew for it and I'm a little clintony about it. There's nothing wrong with it. It can't be fixed by what's right with it. Listen to the new season of Here's the Thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 01:07:39 I love y'all and it was an honor to meet you. It was nice meeting you too. I would have flirted with you a little bit more but I don't want people to think I'm just a whore. You're fine. I think this is Jackie back too. No I don't. I want you to smell them.
Starting point is 01:07:51 I like your business. I'm sorry. Oh I do. It's there. It's the Breakfast Club. It's David Banner. We'll be back. We'll let them do their thing later.
Starting point is 01:07:59 Yeah air in his chest. Morning everybody it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren. Lauren be coming with straight face. She gets into somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything. She be having the latest on me.
Starting point is 01:08:10 The latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes she have facts, sometimes she have details, sometimes she have a little bit of everything. Well, it's the latest. On the Breakfast Club. Talk to me. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit of everything. But what's the latest? On The Breakfast Club. Talk to me.
Starting point is 01:08:27 So there was just an award that happened to Levihan Bell's cousin. Levihan Bell is ex-Michigan tailback. He's also used to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers. His cousin had filed suit alleging that he had raped her for years and she was just awarded $25 million by default in that case. Now, why he didn't answer the case. Yes.
Starting point is 01:08:51 So that is exactly what happened. So this was, this has been going on for some months, but Leveon said that he just found out about this. Let's take a listen to Leveon talking about why the default judgment happened. Fast forward to 2022, right in the beginning, moved to where I'm like, hey look, Jada, I know you, you know what I'm saying? I usually show you some money,
Starting point is 01:09:10 then throw you some money, but I can't do it this one. I can't throw you no extra money this month. When I said that, she instantly went in the text message, oh, you can't pay me? Oh, okay, we gonna see who the bad guy is. I said, Jada, what the hell you talking about? We gonna see who the bad guy is, then you talking about we don't see the bad guys Then we don't see fast forward to we're here today
Starting point is 01:09:28 No, I got oh All right, well, you know when I was chat she ended up getting evicted cuz I didn't pay her I was paying for everything Oh, and I hear with the artists we this this month. I can't do it. Oh I have seven kids in six beams, but do y'all think lady I'm gonna meet myself do I need to force myself upon a woman and men too by the way. I was like if I wanted to go be with a man I'm gonna be with a man. I'm not saying I do. If I'm not saying what I did I could. Now he was on a live stream responding to this after the uh people started picking up the rule and the 25 million dollar ruling that actually came out like two weeks ago but it's just getting Now he was on a live stream responding to this after people started picking up the rule,
Starting point is 01:10:05 the $25 million ruling. That actually came out like two weeks ago, but it's just getting picked up in the media. So he got on live stream and responded yesterday. Now that was the background of how their fallout happened, but he does talk specifically about how they missed this, because this is a huge thing to be missed, because you're normally served and all of that.
Starting point is 01:10:22 Before we move on, why did he start talking about sleeping with men at the end? Like what was that? That's all you heard? I'm just asking like what was that about? Because I mean, I think he was trying to address, you know, different allegations that people were throwing at him, but I don't think he had to if he didn't want to. Yeah, so let's take a listen to Levian on the rape case.
Starting point is 01:10:41 Jada Belle is my cousin, yo. But I just found out this was brewing up maybe about two days ago. on the rape case. Like when I was living there following my tail everywhere when I went to the Jets wanted to always come to the game I was the cousin who was making all this money her brothers her dad All jealous all idiots in the whole time I was not taking me to the top who did not even want to see me at the top I'm saying all the cities bro. Stop believing in the f***ing headlines. She got rewarded 25 million dollars strictly because behind closed doors on my fake little signature or some f***ing headlines. She got rewarded $25 million dollars strictly because behind closed doors somebody faked a little signature or some f***ing
Starting point is 01:11:27 and went to the courts. So this is happening in 2023 and 2024 and I didn't even know. I think it's crazy that people care more about the court of public opinion than they do the court of law. Because if you get hit with something like that, with such serious accusations and you as a default judgment
Starting point is 01:11:42 where you owe $25 million dollars, why are you running to the internet? I'm not getting on a stream. Like why? I'm not. I'm sure he was trying to save his name but it's not a problem to get overturned if he could prove that he's never gotten served or that the fact that it's not his signature it'll get overturned same thing happened with Trey Songz remember Trey Songz got that judgment and he had that overturned as well. So Leveon's attorney has already come out and said that, you know, they adamantly deny this as they have been doing. And that he was never,
Starting point is 01:12:09 that Leveon was never served with a civil complaint. He says that Bell wasn't even living in Ohio at the time that he was reportedly served. So they have submitted, or they're in the process of submitting a motion to reverse the default judgment. Yeah, that'd be a default judgment. That'd be reversed.
Starting point is 01:12:23 Yeah, cause there was a trial by jury, but he wasn't there because he said he didn't know about it until like two days ago. I understand. I still think it's wild to run to the internet and do a scream after being faced with those kind of accusations and having a default judgment for 25 million dollars. Only person I'm talking to is my lawyer. Yeah, he might have other sponsorships. He might be scared to get on the phone. He might have other deals that he just want to clear it up and be like, like, that ain't me. This is what happens so people will know. Because you know, if he had a sponsorship or endorsed. I don't think, I could be wrong. They picked will know. Cause you know, if he had a sponsorship or endorses it, I don't think, I could be wrong, but I don't know.
Starting point is 01:12:46 Maybe on Bell, he been in the league in a while, right? Nah, but, um, but I saw reports that he's making money cause he's doing the boxing thing. He's streaming, like, cause I think he's making money other places and didn't even say he retired with some good money, right? I'm sure. Yeah. I just don't understand. Yeah. I would care about the court of law more than the court of public opinion, but that's just me.
Starting point is 01:13:02 Well, moving right along to responding to things on the internet. Clarissa Shields sat down with Kiki Palmer for a baby. This is Kiki Palmer. Oh, I'm sure that was a nice novel. Shorty is crazy. Yo, Jess, you saw it? Yeah, Kiki is wild for that. Kiki, they had a big conversation about a lot of things, but she did ask about Remy
Starting point is 01:13:19 Mai. Let's take a listen. Now when are you knocking Remy Mai out? Get it! Alright, Kiki. Yo, no, I had to bring that up. take a listen. Now when are you knocking Remy Ma out? The internet is not a real place. Listen, I woke up that morning just in shock with everybody. I want remote the movie. What is this? How is it handling and dealing with all that new and not not really new but just even more
Starting point is 01:13:45 popularity? Yeah. I have to tell myself like this comes with the territory. You talking about being Beyonce baby girl and you're in boxing. Beyonce get way more stuff than this. So I think it's not about the problem, it's about how you handle the problem and I think I handled it very well and everything trends for a minute and then it goes away. I think what Kiki needs to remember in this situation
Starting point is 01:14:07 is she is not a boxer who holds all four major world titles in three weight classes. Okay, she's not the first woman to become undisputed heavyweight champion. Okay, so when you say things like that about Remy Ma, Remy Ma might press you. But not only that, as of last August 1st, Remy Ma's off for probation. Oh God.
Starting point is 01:14:27 Well, I'm just, I like Kiki, you know what I'm saying? I'm just telling you that, you know, Remy's going to ask you about that when she sees you. Yeah, absolutely. And when I saw it, I was like, it was a great conversation and I love Kiki, that's my girl. But I was like, dang, Remy don't play by the same rules. Remy's going to ask her about that when she sees it. Wait now I was gonna start. Are you dumb? And that's where it's gonna start. Are you dumb? And then it's gonna you know. Clarissa handled it well though she said she's being Beyonce and she got her man. Great question though. Of course. It was a great question. Any of us would have asked it maybe not like that. I wouldn't ask it like that. I mean I wouldn't ask that cuz I don't why was she not Remy help
Starting point is 01:15:11 Not remember I know but that's not gonna happen we you know I'm saying like yeah We not cuz we know Remy do we know it like they wouldn't be innocent like oh, let's just know I mean for it for the the clicks of it all yeah, okay It may be a good question for that, but it was just shocking that it was shocking to me coming from Kiki Yeah, I think I wouldn't expect for her to just straight say that like Ryan destiny was like, oh, this is good Poor sis was wrapped in the middle of it. But um, as we wrap up I just want to clarify for context they were talking about like her other fights in her records and then she brought it there So yeah like her other fights in her records and then she brought it there so yeah it don't matter what context it was
Starting point is 01:15:47 it could have been a better segue I'm trying and then gagged my sources from Google say as of August 1st she is now officially off probation I ain't saying all that all I'm saying is that Remy is going to ask her about it when she see it that's what I'm saying you say Remy ain't on them papers no more she can do more than that. I don't think Remy will do all that. No I'm saying she could if she wanted to do
Starting point is 01:16:13 more than that. Lord have mercy. Okay. Alright well thank you for the latest with Lauren. Charlamagne! Yes. Who you giving that dog to? I need representative Keith Self of Texas to come to the front of the congregation. Okay? He is the person who said something to the first transgender woman in Congress, Sarah McBride, and we need to discuss. Oh, God. Okay?
Starting point is 01:16:35 All right, we'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Wake up. Wake up. You're locked into the Breakfast Club. This is a miracle. There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and the police Breakfast Club. This is a miracle.
Starting point is 01:16:51 There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community. Yes, you are a donkey. The latest on that police killing of a black man. Now the new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage. Man, yesterday was a really bad day for him and this is what he did. And so we are in a state of emergency. Okay, white supremacist violence is, always has been the number one threat to our society. But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
Starting point is 01:17:14 To the breakfast club, bitches. All right, Tony, please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day? Well, donkey of the day for Wednesday, March 12th goes to Representative Keith Self of Texas. Now I am fully aware that I am not mature enough to have certain conversations Well, donkey of the day for Wednesday, March 12th goes to Representative Keith Self of Texas. Now, I am fully aware that I am not mature enough to have certain conversations because my default setting is laughter.
Starting point is 01:17:31 Okay, I am a very unserious person because we live in the United States of anxiety and I've been dealing with anxiety and panic attacks my whole life and if it's one thing therapy has taught me is we must always find joy. And I find joy in jokes. In this situation with Representative Keith Self gave me great joy. I laughed a lot because Keith Self decided to abruptly adjourn a congressional hearing on Tuesday after being challenged for referring to Representative Sarah McBride of Delaware as a man. Now maybe you don't know, don't show, or don't give a damn that Sarah McBride of Delaware as a man. Now maybe you don't know, don't show, or don't
Starting point is 01:18:05 give a damn that Sarah McBride is the first openly transgender lawmaker in Congress. Okay, that is a fact. In the Europe Subcommittee of the House of Foreign Affairs panel, by the way I have no idea what that is but it sounds fancy, that panel was in the middle of a hearing on arms control and US assistance to Europe when his chairman, Representative Keith Self of Texas, introduced his colleague by calling Sarah McBride a Mr. Let's go to 6ABC News for the report please. The congressional hearing came to an abrupt end yesterday after a Republican colleague misgendered newly elected Delaware representative Sarah McBride.
Starting point is 01:18:40 I now recognize the representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride. Thank you, Madam Chair. As you just heard, Texas Republican Keith Self, the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, addressed McBride as Mr. McBride, hit back by responding, thank you, Madam Chair. McBride made history last year by becoming the first openly transgender person elected to Congress. After the exchange, Massachusetts Representative William Keating defended his Democratic colleague. Mr. Chairman, you are out of order.
Starting point is 01:19:12 Mr. Chairman, have you no decency? I mean, I have come to know you a little bit, but this is not decent. We will continue this. You will not continue it with me unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way. Southend immediately adjourned the meeting. McBride says she was disappointed and was prepared to move forward with questions for the subcommittee. Now let the record show I believe Representative William Keating of Massachusetts was trying to be funny. Okay, he wanted Keith Self to repeat himself for the same reason I wanted Keith Self to say it again.
Starting point is 01:19:42 For my own personal enjoyment. And you heard keep self, he doubled down. And can we hear it again one more time? I want to hear it in full. Let me hear it in full. Now as the representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride. Thank you, Madam Chair. Ranking member Keating also wonderful. Mr. Chairman, could you repeat your introduction again,
Starting point is 01:20:01 please? Yes, it's a... We have set the standard on the floor of the House, and I'm simply... What is that standard, Mr. Chairman? Would you repeat what you just said, when you introduced a duly elected representative from the United States of America? Please.
Starting point is 01:20:20 I will. The representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride. You couldn't wait. Mr. Chairman, you are out of order. Mr. Chairman, have you no decency? I mean, I've come to know you a little bit, but this is not decent. We will continue this. You will not continue it with me unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way.
Starting point is 01:20:42 I have to play White Devil's advocate here because I understand what Mr. Self is coming from because I too have been wondering what to do in this situation because as Keith self explained on social media and I'm quoting him here, it is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes male and female. Why? Because one of President Trump's early moves of his second term was to sign an executive order that the federal government would only recognize two sexes and they were not changeable. Okay, an executive order was signed.
Starting point is 01:21:09 It's right there in black and white. I don't know what to do in this situation. It's all so confusing. So William Keating, you getting frustrated with Mr. Self when all he's doing is what your boss told him to do. Did a memo go out telling members of Congress what to do in this situation after Trump signed that executive order? Of course it didn't. So I'm not really upset at Keith Self for doing what the president told him to do. What I am upset about and the reason I'm giving Keith Self donkey today is
Starting point is 01:21:35 because he adjourned the session. See these petty culture wars are hurting democracy. You heard me say earlier that they were in the middle of a hearing on arms control and US assistance to Europe. I kinda know what that is. I believe I know what that means, but I know one thing for sure. That panel is more important than whether or not Sarah McBride is referred to as Mr. or Miss. And you know who knows that better than anyone?
Starting point is 01:21:58 Sarah McBride! See, on other occasions, Republicans presiding over the floor and in hearings have either tried to stay away from the issue by referring to Sarah as the member from Delaware. Even though the custom is to refer to lawmakers as gentlemen or gentlewomen, I actually like them just referring to her as the member from Delaware even though I don't know if Sarah has had their member surgically removed. But Sarah rarely discusses or calls attention to her identity. Okay this is how she conducted herself on her campaign and in her first month of Congress she prefers to talk about economic issues and that's
Starting point is 01:22:31 what I want all you elected officials to do focus on the actual issues that impact our world. Okay Keith Self there's no reason to adjourn a meeting because you was challenged on calling Sarah him when William Keating says you out of order say well hey the president signed an executive order and that's what I'm following but to take your ball and run home because your ego got bruised come on man grow up you a member of Congress we got bigger issues to deal with you can't just take your balls and go home and neither can Sarah McBride. Ironically, she's the only person in this situation with balls. So you're right, Keef.
Starting point is 01:23:12 But you're also wrong. Please give Representative Keef's self the biggest E-Haw. It's just bigger issues to deal with, guys. And girls. And girl guys. It's crazy. Well thank you for that. Big issues to deal with. That's all I'm saying. Thank you for that donkey today. Yes. All right. Where we going now? Ah okay well what we doing? Why you be taking so long? Because I'm trying not to laugh but he's stupid though. 800. Who's stupid? You stupid! Okay, is it okay? That was harsh. All right 800-585-1051. Let's clear it up a little bit Let's clear it up a little bit. Woosah woosah woosah woosah woosah. Did we be silly with you? Yes
Starting point is 01:23:57 No, he stepped out. Okay. All right now we're talking about something that tragically happened. A Southern University student, Caleb Wilson, he passed away. Allegedly he was taking part in a hazing ritual and that was the reason why he passed away. So we're asking 800-585- Oh, he was killed. He was killed. 800-585-1051. He was allegedly punched in the chest by a member of the organization where he was pledging with a boxing glove and he collapsed and began having seizures.
Starting point is 01:24:29 So we're asking 800-585-1051, do you think hazing should be removed from the pledging process or do you feel like it's tradition? We'd love to hear from the Divine Nine, we'd love to hear from anybody in the fraternity. 800-585-1051, that is the question. None of us up here are in a fraternity or sorority. I was pledging for one but my grades didn't allow me to finish it. I thought you couldn't hold on to the cane. I thought you said the cane. You told me the cane kept flipping on your head. I did not say that. You did tell me that before. I did not say that. You wanted to be a caper right? I did not say that. Yes I was was pledging capital. Oh and I was in Hampton University
Starting point is 01:25:05 It was something with the cane. It was nothing with the cane. You miss making up stuff. I don't know what you're Fantasies are or fantasy well, but yes I was and I couldn't follow through with the process because my grades weren't where they needed to be so I could not pass you had to have a believer a 3.5 Average I believe at the time and I didn't had a 3.4 and I could not not surprise in there yeah I swear I swear I was a point away if my one teacher's name was dr. Kalan if you would have gave me a 80 on a test I would have been
Starting point is 01:25:37 able to do it and he gave me a 78 I remember that like it was yesterday but yeah so that is the question 800-585-1051 Do you think Hazen should be removed from the pledging process? Let's discuss. We'll take your calls when we come back as The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:26:07 Morning everybody, it's DJ N.V. Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking about Caleb Wilson, rest in peace, Caleb Wilson. He passed away, he went to Southern University, and he was pledging. Let's hear the news report. Three men facing felony charges in the death of a fraternity pledge have all been identified. Caleb McCray charged with manslaughter and criminal hazing, Isaiah Smith and Kyle Thurman also facing criminal hazing charges. When hazing involves a great bodily injury or death, there is a felony component to hazing
Starting point is 01:26:43 and it carries up to five years. According to arrest warrants, McCray, Smith and Thurman led the hazing ritual that night at this warehouse leased by Smith's father. Each had a specific number of pledges lined up to punch in the chest four times.
Starting point is 01:26:58 Witnesses say McCray was the one who punched Caleb Wilson causing him to collapse and become unresponsive. The group went to check on Caleb, made the decision to change him out of his clothes and bring him to the hospital 10 to 15 minutes after he collapsed. At no point did anyone call 911. Damn. So sad. What's the question? 800-585-1051, do you think hazing should be removed from the pledging process or is it tradition? That is the question.
Starting point is 01:27:28 I mean, I have no idea because I'm not a Greek but my only advice to the Greeks was, would be don't do things that could potentially kill people. Like y'all not gangs jumping each other in, you're a fraternity, think of something smarter to do. Yeah, I'm with you but let me ask you a question. I'm sure they didn't think that punching somebody in the chest with a boxing glove would kill them though. Oh, that's what happened? That's what they said, yeah. Punched somebody in the chest with a boxing glove would kill him though. Oh that's what happened? That's what they said yeah. Punched him in the chest with a boxing glove on. Oh yeah I didn't hear the boxing glove part in the news before. Yeah but I'm sure they didn't think that would kill him. But you're still not a gang like I don't see why you have to do something like physical violence you know me. But there was still four of them doing it like all of them had to do it though. Oh so four people punched him in the chest? It was that that's what the hazing was it was gonna be all four it was like four of them and I don't even think he made it through all four of them doing it. Yeah I you know you hear about bloods and
Starting point is 01:28:14 crips jumping each other in I ain't never heard that with no sorority. It shouldn't be physical violence like y'all are a fraternity like think of something smarter to do. Well hazing isn't legally part of the process that's not what it's supposed to do it's actually illegal to haze in any organization it's still quote-unquote done but it is illegal to do. So they need to get rid of it then? Well, they're supposed to it's not supposed to exist but I guess so many members have been haze it's like a rite of passage through to some of these fraternities and sororities. I remember movies like
Starting point is 01:28:43 school days remember school days when they blindfolded the, they were hazing the kids and they blindfolded them and they made them put their hand in the toilet and they thought they were squeezing doodly, but it was a banana? Yeah. You know what I mean? Like do stuff like that. Yeah, I mean that does happen. They blindfold them and then you ask the four founders and you got to go through the all that stuff but or even like the even remember how they burn you like a little thing like that ain't deadly even something like that like you know but I thought they get the
Starting point is 01:29:14 burn after the fact yeah you get in right burn after after they get in damn so I that's something else I gotta do after I'm already in if you want every every member doesn't have that like oh. Like every member of sorority fraternity doesn't have that burn on it. Why can't you just get a tattoo? You can! You know what I'm saying? They're not cows. Right, like damn.
Starting point is 01:29:33 Hello, who's this? Hello. Hey, good morning, Sarah. Hello. Good morning. Sarah, now you are a member of the Divine Nine? I am. What are you?
Starting point is 01:29:44 I don't want to say anything. Everything about this is a no. I am. What are you? I don't wanna say. Everything about this is, I'm not. I hear Zeta in your voice. Wow. First of all, never. Never. Never. Now I know she a Delta, AKA.
Starting point is 01:29:58 Probably AKA. Only AKAs get offended when you call them Zetas. I'm not that either. So you're a Delta. Okay, so the last one Zetas. I'm not that either. So you're a Delta. OK, so the last one. Again, I'm not saying anything. I'm right, Zara. Talk to us.
Starting point is 01:30:11 What's your thoughts, Zara? I will say this. First of all, I think that it is so unfortunate that that young man lost his life. I really feel bad for his family, that chapter, that organization, the divine nine period. This is a tragedy that should never ever have to happen. Second, I think that one, pledging is not supposed to happen period.
Starting point is 01:30:34 It's not legal in any of the divine nine. You mean hazing? Pledging is hazing. Oh, you mean hazing. Pledging, no, pledging or hazing period. Pledging period. It's called hazing but it's an intake process and that's the actual name or the title that any of those organizations use officially which is an intake process. None of those traditions require any form of hazing.
Starting point is 01:31:01 Let's establish that. Okay, none of them. None of our traditions require any form of hazing. Let's establish that. Okay, none of them. None of our traditions require any form of hazing. So you agree hazing should be eliminated? What I'm saying is that there is a difference. If these young organizations, the young chapters, there is a desire for them to want to know because they hear the old stories from the older generations like, oh, we did this and we did that. So they have this desire to want to do that, to feel like they had the same experience. The problem is that the older Greeks, we are removing ourselves from that connection because we don't want to get in trouble. We got jobs, we got kids, we don't want anything to come back on us. So they are removing
Starting point is 01:31:51 themselves. And what happens when you have nobody leading the madness? There's a complete disaster and that's the issue. There is a method to the madness and there could be guidance. It could be done the right way, but it's not because they're removing themselves and I understand nationally why. You have this happen, insurance companies are no longer insuring these divide not organizations. They had to make a choice. We understand that.
Starting point is 01:32:23 Nobody wants to lose their letters But those kids they they want their process. So now it's just blind leading the blind Sarah. Let me ask you a question It I was just thinking about it now usually when somebody pledges they cross during about homecoming time, which is October November Why are they doing it so early? This is just much This is so that that's an HBC you think that they all have to cross on the same day that's not a divine nine thing so a lot of HBC use have all of their probates all on the same day which means all of them are going through at their intake is at the same time that but this particular instance I'm sure that
Starting point is 01:33:06 Southern was on the same thing because I think maybe ANT just had theirs like a week or two ago where they had a bunch of probates all at the same day so I'm pretty sure that that was like an HTC you think of when they have their days all right whatever the school established and did you get again I did I'm good in May, but that doesn't mean that that's the way it should be now Thank you mama Hello who's this Will you sound like an alpha But this what I'm saying Like obviously it's a fortunate situation
Starting point is 01:33:49 You tell me what happened at Southern we know that you know Hazen is heavily ingrained in the culture HBC use you tell me I would do a few myself You you know, you got hazen in the bed. You got hazin on a football team basketball team the choir all that you feel me? I do think this though. There are certain ways to Everybody have the process you feel me there's certain ways to have it ain't gotta be physical You gotta be beating on a dude You could be you know have to watch the big brother car every day or something you feel me? Yeah, take them a newspaper three o'clock in the morning.
Starting point is 01:34:26 You ain't necessarily, you know, when our plan is yes, our plan is our plan is hard, you feel me? It is what it is. It's what had to happen at that time. Times have changed, you feel me? And that's okay. Everybody don't have to be made. Once you cross some letters, you feel me, you're going'll be respected of your organization as a value member of that organization
Starting point is 01:34:48 Well, you know, it's funny. Well, it's funny that you said that like you said You don't have to put hands on somebody and put somebody where they could possibly die I remember up when I was going through the process We had to buy a hundred turkeys right in each grocery store only had five turkeys So we had to drive to every grocery store in an area to buy these turkeys to give them away for Thanksgiving So that was with somebody you did all that and still ain't make the team Y'all in college do something smarter man 800-585-1051. Do you think hazen should be removed from the pledging process? Let's discuss this the breakfast club. Good morning the breakfast club
Starting point is 01:35:29 Morning everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious Charlemagne the guy we are the breakfast club if you're just joining us We're talking about Caleb Wilson who was killed by going through the hazing process and we're asking 800 5851051 Do you think hazing should be removed from the pledging process or is it tradition? Now Louis V who is the program director of our station in Atlanta. Yes, 96.1 to beat. He's also a member of the Divine Nine. Louis V, come to the mic. Yup.
Starting point is 01:35:59 Hey Louis V, how you doing? Tell us how you got hazed Louis. I heard you got a tattoo on your left ass cheek but you got it before you happened? I heard you got a tattoo on your left ass cheek, but you got it before you even got hit. You got a tattoo. What happened? Oh, yo, you wild, man. Tell us where they touched you.
Starting point is 01:36:12 Just say, wow. You wild, man. You wild. Listen, I'm not talking about my process, but hazing is definitely illegal, I will say that. And I feel like, you know, like everybody said, there's a very unfortunate situation that, you know, that Caleb passed, you know what I mean? It doesn't take that.
Starting point is 01:36:27 The last guy that called in, like you said, it doesn't take that. A lot of this stuff can be mental. A lot of things can be done differently. And social media, for one, is making it harder. Like when I was coming through, we didn't have social media, but I can't even imagine having it the way we had it back then, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:36:43 Like it is now going through a process like that. And again, I mean, just I don't mind saying, yeah, I pledged, but it was definitely a, you know, it ain't something to brag about. I will say that. I think people are. There's a type of soil in Mississippi called Yazoo clay. It's thick, burnt orange, and it's got a reputation. It's terrible, terrible dirt. Yazoo clay eats everything,
Starting point is 01:37:06 so things that get buried there tend to stay buried. Until they're not. In 2012, construction crews at Mississippi's biggest hospital made a shocking discovery. 7,000 bodies out there or more. All former patients of the old state asylum, and nobody knew they were there. It was my family's mystery.
Starting point is 01:37:28 But in this corner of the South, it's not just the soil that keeps secrets. Nobody talks about it. Nobody has any information. When you peel back the layers of Mississippi's Yazoo clay, nothing's ever as simple as you think. The story is much more complicated and nuanced than that. I'm Larysen Campbell.

This season on my podcast, Here's the Thing, I speak with California Governor Gavin Newsom. I watch Fox. I pay attention to Newsmax 1 American News. I don't turn my back to the critics, but there is a sort of California derangement syndrome out there that is just sort of ridiculous.
Starting point is 01:39:49 This notion that this is the only state that has challenges, it's just comedic, but it's damaging. We record-breaking tourism last year. We have a surplus again. We have a state with population growing again. You wouldn't know that. That's not prevalent. It's not part of the discussion.
Starting point is 01:40:04 It's been engulfed by the fires. It's been engulfed by the fires. It's been engulfed by the fires. It's a failed state, California, but for me, it's a pride for me. Again, as a guy who lives here, who cares about the state, is to make a case anew for it. And I'm a little clintonia about it. There's nothing wrong with it. It can't be fixed by what's right with it.
Starting point is 01:40:21 Listen to the new season of Here's the Thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Wearing it now like a badge of honor, and these young kids are trying to kind of get a better understanding or trying to feel like they need to be made in a certain way, but it don't take all of that, man, and that's sad. Well, yeah, did you come across, what do you call it,
Starting point is 01:40:41 crossing over or coming out? What do they call it, Lou? It's crossed, not coming out. It's not coming out University that's why you in Atlanta I gotta see your face bitch Would you a sophomore or junior when you crossed up? I was a I was a junior junior Okay, and Louis V is a capper. He wanted to be a cube
Starting point is 01:41:02 You don't even know what that's crazy. This guy's crazy. You know, Shalom ain't trying to start He wanted to be a cube. You don't even know You know Charlamagne trying to start his own fraternity as far as I don't even know No CC And I know I know Charlamagne know about Chuck 5 Chuck so Charlamagne, you know, you already know Just said Hello, who's this? Jess said ass flat. Hello, who's this? Hey, what's your name? Hi, I'm going by anonymous, but my fake name will be Mary. Alright, Mary, fake name Mary. Mary is a.k.a.
Starting point is 01:41:40 Mary is hilarious. Now Mary, what's up? Talk to us, we're talking hazes, should it be removed? So, I do not believe that hazing should be removed. I do think that there has to be a process where those that have been in the organization need to oversee. So normally there's a dean and normally there is an elder, someone that is, you know, that's been seasoned, that is in, should oversee the process. So therefore safety and proper protocols are followed. So I do believe in a hazing process. I don't believe that it should just be unmonitored because that is when things happen. That is when, you know, unfortunately deaths occur because there
Starting point is 01:42:18 are no parameters around what is being done. So I think that there has to be some type of guidance with the younger, you know, younger individuals that are actually doing the hazing. I'm 25 years in, so I've been in the organization for a very long time, in 2008, but I do believe that if it is monitored, then hazing is okay. But listen, if hazing is illegal, then there's no right way to do the wrong thing.
Starting point is 01:42:47 So you're literally saying you want these kids to have guidance to do the wrong thing? You can't just go in and just skate through the process and not follow tradition. You're saying it has to be something. There has to be something. You got across those burning sands, right? If everybody could do it then
Starting point is 01:43:05 anybody could do it and it and it is an elite group it should be an elite group where if any just anybody can't get through right so we there has to be something i believe in the tradition i pledged right it was monitored but i think when the when you know it is not being monitored that is the problem that's when anything is occurring. Mary, did they put paddle to ass? Did they put a paddle to your ass? I'm a part of the Century Club, yes. What that mean?
Starting point is 01:43:31 What's the Century Club? Paddle to your ass, that's where they paddle you. They hit you on your ass with a paddle. So the 100 licks, that's why they call it the Century Club? That would be smart. There you go. Okay, got you. All right.
Starting point is 01:43:43 Oh, so she can't confirm or deny. Exactly. All right. I ain't gon' front, man. This is illegal. But you think about Okay, got you. Okay. All right, Mary. Oh, so she can't confirm or deny. Exactly. All right. I ain't gon' front, man. Is this illegal? But you think about it, Jess, if you gotta do all this, man, you might as well decide whether you want to be a Greek, a blood, or a Crip.
Starting point is 01:43:53 I was ready to say, I was. What's your benefit? Pyro. I would just go over there and go over there. Damn, yo. I gotta get jumped in. I want to know what's better. What's gonna protect me better in the future?
Starting point is 01:44:01 I only want, I only won't go here no more now Damn, he's at the Century Club Jesus a hundred licks Jesus. All right. Well, what's the moral of the story? What's the moral of the story Louis V stop pledging at this point? I mean again it is it doesn't really get you nowhere and you see where it got us right now and then it changed Yeah, and it's it isn't just affect Omega Psi Phi. This affects all of the Divine Nine, like everybody. Because again, you've got to look at it from that perspective. Like this could happen to anybody.
Starting point is 01:44:33 And unfortunately, it just happened to him. And I think they suspended all the Greek organizations. They paused everything for that entire campus. So again, yeah. So it's one of the things where this trickles down to everybody. All right, now we got the latest with Lauren coming up, so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club of the morning.
Starting point is 01:44:50 Lauren be coming with straight face. Tell us! She gets it from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything. Everybody. She be having the latest on you. The latest with Lauren LaRosa.
Starting point is 01:44:58 Sometimes she has facts, sometimes she have details, sometimes she have a little bit of everything. Well, it's the latest. On the Breakfast Club Lauren La Rosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit of everything. Well, it's the latest. On The Breakfast Club. Talk to me.
Starting point is 01:45:11 Okay, guys. So this morning, Good Morning America released audio for the first time ever. The woman who accused Jay-Z and Diddy of sexually assaulting her when she was 13 years old after the VMAs of her on tape saying that Jay-Z had nothing to do with this. Let's take a listen. But Jay-Z was you're saying he was definitely there? But he had no part in it or he was just? He was there.
Starting point is 01:45:37 He was just there but he didn't have anything to do with the any sexual acts towards you. It was strictly. He was the one who kind of pushed me towards going forward with him. With Jay-Z. Busby did? Yeah. Do you know why? No. Who was it interviewing her?
Starting point is 01:45:56 So interviewing her, you hear two investigators that are on Jay's side, private investigators. And the question that they are asking her is, was Jay-Z even there? Because she alleged, you know, this happened at a party, blah, blah, blah. And then they have the conversation about how did this even come about then? And she's saying that Tony Busby pushed her allegedly to bring Jay-Z into it. So then, of course, once Good Morning America and these outlets received this audio, they reach out to Busby for a response and Busby counters with audio of this woman talking to him. Let's take a listen to that. They say that they have you on tape denying that Jay-Z assaulted you. Is that true?
Starting point is 01:46:37 No, no. I don't. I've never said that. Okay. Did they also say that you told them and they have it on tape that I, Tony Busby, told you to like came up with this plan and told you to say that Jay-Z assaulted you so you would get more money?
Starting point is 01:46:54 No. We just heard the tape though. You just heard the tape of her saying these things. And then there's another tape of her saying this. And let's just say, right? So was Busby gonna say that she was coerced to say that I think that's what he's getting at But I'm a person was not credible at this point But I mean this is dropped anyway with prejudice that means that this case can't be brought back against um
Starting point is 01:47:15 Did he or jay-z? But the reason why are Kelly are Kelly the reason why? Jay-z's attorney says that they put this out is because they still wanted the more, they wanted this, like people need to see everything. Spike the football, damn right. Yeah, because this was, you know, put on his name or whatever. So people need to see everything. Tony Busby should receive heavy consequences, that young lady should receive heavy consequences. This does nothing but make it harder for real victims and it makes it harder for successful
Starting point is 01:47:40 men because you can always be the target of a BS lawsuit like this one. And where is the media? How come the truth and the facts are never as loud as the accusation? When it's an accusation, everyone runs to amplify it. When it's the truth, everybody quiet. Well, what do you always say, right? Nobody cares about the truth in the live more than the 10.
Starting point is 01:47:57 And the sad thing about it is, you could tell it's been a lie from the beginning. From the very beginning. She didn't have her story straight. Her her dad does remember driving four or five hours Like it sounds crazy to the fact that we're still having these conversations, but it hurts whole I'm sure it hurts Whole where people have I'm sure businesses it affected his business it affected when he was taking his daughter to see them Just affect him as his family I just said if you ran to YouTube if you ran to a podcast to have an opinion about
Starting point is 01:48:25 the accusations, have that same energy for the truth. Yeah, Jay-Z, he came out and said he lost millions of dollars at the time, 20 million that all this was happening. That's why he's filing suit against, you know what I mean? So yeah. Now lastly, real quick, this is a crazy segue. The two have nothing to do with each other. Let me just put that out out there there is an audio floating around right now of Kelly and he did the residuals challenge because he is saying that people owe him some bread and he wanted to put that was amazing very who getting paid for my crime from his grind my grind mine where's my
Starting point is 01:49:00 checks where's my money at like real residuals like what's up where's my bread exactly I'm going bad in here 30 plus years in the game and Whatever wherever the money is going right now. He don't even got money on his commissary. I will say now that is a phone I don't know what Tory recorded on but that is a phone that I'll Kelly recorded on period and that was no auto-tune No nothing that man still in there singing There was an audio two of them singing on a podcast and the ladies got some flack for it, but he was singing Happy Birthday and people were just, you know, no comment on how good he sounds.
Starting point is 01:49:31 But people were, of course, were upset about that. But nobody, nobody ever said R. Kelly wasn't talented. I mean, that was never stated through everything, through all the accusations and convictions that nobody ever said R. was a palatiner. All right. But all right, real quick, random observation. I'm at Shaq house yesterday, right? And yo, this man is living like Neo. He got four white bitches, big booties in there. Like one is in the kitchen cleaning, the other one is in the basement. Shaq who was your fellow Neo? Yeah. I mean, I don't know another shack.

Listen, what happened at the house yesterday that makes you never want to go back there again that you told the story? No, no, no. I don't give a hot goddamn. What happened at the house yesterday that makes you never want to go back there again that you told the story? No, no, no, no.

Did you get in there surfing? Four white women. No, I mean like, you know, the other two of them was like beautiful, bad. I'm like, okay, all right, Shaq, I see what you're doing. Then I've seen the other two come out the back and I was like, oh, why they getting there?
Starting point is 01:50:53 They need a little bit more work. Why you didn't give them Dr. Uma and report this? Because Dr. Uma got something of his own that he going on right now. He got he going through right now. So I chose to leave that brother alone. But man, I could not believe it. Did they cook for you? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. His Shaq. Right now he got he going through right now, so I chose to leave that brother alone, but man I could not believe it did they cook for you Yeah, yeah, yeah his his shack.
