Hey, what's up y'all, this is Eric Andre.
But I made a podcast called Bombing about absolutely tanking on stage.
I tell gnarly stories and I talk to friends about their worst moments of bombing
in all sorts of ways.
Bombing on stage, bombing in public, bombing in life.
Like the time I stole a girl's phone during a set and she dumped on stage
and threw a big haymaker punch to my nose.

Tamyrus, the widow of the King of the Masangedi people.
She refused his offer and so he decided that he would invade her kingdom instead.
Turns out, that was a big mistake.

It's all about raising kids.
You know we got six kids and the oldest 23, three

So if you're thinking about having children,
it's from two different sides.
Gia's side and how she raises the kids and then my side.

It's his way or the highway.
There was no questions.
Okay.
And Gia allows questions.
Gotcha. So no, you can't questions. So no you can't go

I'm like now you can't go why cuz I said so I got it gave it like you should explain
Why do you know because I said so I got time
But it makes a great dynamic. All right. Well Eli Ellie
Miss style will be joining us this morning
He's the author of bad law ten popular Popular Laws That Are Ruining America.
And we'll talk to him in a little bit.
And then we got front page news.
President Trump, aka Mr. Tariffs, he's been dropping tariffs left and right.
We'll talk to him next.
We'll talk to Morgan about this next.
So don't go anywhere.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ NV Jesselarius.
Charlamagne, the guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
All right. Now let's to Melo. Easy call. There was never any doubt. Not at all. That's a
first ballot Hall of Fame. Okay. What up Morgan? What up? What
up? What up? And hey, Barney Boyle. Shout out Carmelo
Anthony. All right, so let's get into the front page news. So
yeah, it's tariff Thursday. It's tariff every day, right? So
President Trump has signed new US global tariffs keeping in line
with his campaign promise to saying that tariffs will in decades of unfair trade policies.
So he spoke more on the order yesterday at the White House.
Let's jump right into the audio and take a listen to President Trump.
Today, we're standing up for the American worker and we are finally putting America
first.
My answer is very simple.
If they complain, if you want your tariff rate to be zero,
then you build your product right here in America,
because there is no tariff if you build your plant,
your product in America.
So Trump blamed past leaders for trade policies
that he said were imbalanced.
Adding that tariff stand to benefit Americans,
as you heard in that audio.
Companies can also avoid paying tariffs if they make their products in the US. Trump spoke more
on this whole tariffs thing. Let's hear more from President Trump.
April 2nd, 2025 will forever be remembered as the day American industry was reborn, the
day America's destiny was reclaimed, and the day that we began to make America wealthy again.
Our country and its taxpayers have been ripped off for more than 50 years, but it is not
going to happen anymore.
It's not going to happen.
So tariffs cover a wide range of products that are targeting several countries, including
Canada, Mexico, China, and the European Union. Now Trump called the reciprocal tariffs, uh, the day, April 2nd,
yesterday, liberation day for the U.S. after trading partners have, quote, looted, pillaged,
and raped American industries for decades, leading to a loss of U.S. jobs and manufacturing.
All countries will have an immediate 10% baseline tariff on imported goods, and many are getting hit with larger tariffs on top of that. Now, critics claim
the reciprocal tariffs are unfair and could lead to hyperinflation. You guys have any
thoughts?
Yeah. The thing about the tariffs I don't understand is what is the end game here? Like,
you know, I hear him say, well, in unfair trade policies, but you know, it just feels
like, you know, they put taxes on us So now we gonna put taxes on them
And I guess he's trying to get people to bring manufacturing back to the u.s. But yes, doesn't it just cost more to build here?
Yeah, what would they make it cheaper to manufacture here like what's the benefit of building?
You know in America just zero tariffs well employees are cheaper in other places too, but that's a good question
You know he was talking about you know other people charging us tariffs as well
So he wants them to you know knock off their tariffs which will knock
off our tariffs I guess that's what he's saying but I thought he was against free trade and
I thought he wanted more people to build here but like you said how can they build here
if it's more expensive to build here?
One of the things that is striking me is the auto tariffs and how that stands to impact
a lot of Americans because it's not like we make all the parts auto parts here in America.
So we stand to still even if you buy an American car, the price of that is still going to go
up because some of the steel some of the materials are not made in America.
So it's just like, yeah, it still affects us.
It still affects them.
They're saying car prices will have to raise between three and $10,000.
What it will do is it'll pass it'll make used cars a premium
You know, I mean because you know, you won't have that extra ten thousand on your used vehicle, you know
Absolutely, and I just don't understand how you know, you're saying you're gonna make it easier for the American workers
But you're doing things that are going to immediately hurt those American workers financially. Yes
I guess has immediate impact on the economy. Yes it does
In fact,
there is a bipartisan effort to block the tariffs against Canada. Kentucky's Republican
Senator Rand Paul is actually working with Democrat Senator out of Virginia, Tim Kaine,
who proposed a bill that would essentially end the emergency declaration put forth by
the Trump administration to impose tariffs on Canada.
Now, the Senate voted 51 to 48 in favor of the resolution that would block President
Trump's tariffs on Canadian products.
Yesterday, well, actually, we don't have time to get into the audio, but I will say that
there are four other Republicans that support this Democratic-led measure, Susan Collins
of Maine, Rand Paul, and Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska. So the resolution authored by Virginia Democrat Tim Kaine is expected to stall in
the House. However, the vote signaled bipartisan opposition on the sweeping levy. So this is
bigger than just whatever party you voted for. This is an American issue.
Absolutely. But see, that's the whole thing. That's why we have all of these conversations
about party and you know, everybody
goes back and forth, you know, at each other because you're a Democrat or you're Republican.
But once that person is in the White House at the end of the day, we're just all Americans
who are impacted by the decisions of what that president, you know, does.
Like, so you can scream Democrat, Republican, all you want.
At the end of the day, that is your president.
We are Americans and we're impacted by his decisions.
And that's essentially what the senators were saying that, hey look, if we can agree that we don't like this,
then you know that we can go ahead and put some forth some measures to combat it.
And this is something that the you know those senators seem to agree on.
Because all we care about is American people is you know keeping some money in our pocket and being safe.
I don't care what your race is, your religion is, your sexuality, your gender is, those are the two
things that you care about the most. Having some money in your pocket and being safe. That's it.
Hurry it, clock it. All right. So that's your five minutes for 6 a.m. I'll talk to you guys at 7
and we will get into what's going on with Elon Musk.
All right. Everybody else, get it off your your chest 800-585-1051.

Plus the fact that we're going to be getting taxed,
you know, when we dead and gone, man.
I came to the conclusion to realize it is where it is
I'm gonna keep pushing man
I'm in the process of getting me a car and I know that's gonna affect me in terms of the way these terrors
Terrace going but I really ride in the walk. So I'm gonna get me a car anyway
Why didn't you vote brothers one in curse?
I mean, they're gonna do what they want to do anyway
And I kind of feel like my vote don't matter cuz they're gonna do what they want to do anyway
Well, your vote does matter. Yeah
If you're looking for a car, I mean March was the best time to do it but it is April now
I would do your homework and I would pick car companies against each other pick dealerships against each other
Hey, this dealership is giving them to me for 25, can you give it to me for
23? Go back and forth, you're going to have to use your negotiation game because them
car dealerships ain't as packed as they were.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey on a better ending note, Charlamagne.
Yes sir.
Hey what you think about Myrtle Beach R&B music fest opening up up with Mary J. Blige and closing with Usher.
That sounds expensive.
Yeah, I mean, I think R&B Fest will work.
I think anything that can bring out grown folks will work.
You know what I mean?
Remember when Tank was up here
and Tank was talking about doing the R&B Money Awards?
I think anything like that will work, honestly.
Yeah, yeah, it'll work, right.
I was telling my coworkers I was gonna run it past y'all
if I was able to get through.
I've been going to stuff like that all my life.
One of my favorite festivals ever was the Sugar Water Festival

Hello, who's this? This is Courtney.
Hey, Courtney, good morning. Get it off your chest.
Good morning. I want to get off my chest, man.
We got to stop being so empathetic to these folks
that be calling on this radio
and for people that be doing stuff online.
Charlamagne just gave that man donkey the other day for leaving his kids at the
McDonald's
Come to find out
The daughter said he left to go drop off a backpack
Video surveillance got him walking back and forth between the apartment complex
They live there and the McDonald's they don't call the bank when he was supposed to have the interview
I
Seen somebody else say something differently that they actually spoke to the girlfriend or the mother baby mother and they said that he was
At any of you so I seen conflicting reports. So I don't know what's true that they actually spoke to the girlfriend or the mother, baby mother and they said that he was at interviews.
I've seen conflicting reports, so I don't know what's true and what's not true.
But listen, the bank manager did say that he filled out an application on the 22nd
and that they had kind of like an informal conversation for like 15-20 minutes.
But I don't know if this was the same day or whatever, but the new-dose kids for that long,
he was not at an interview. And the kids say, this ain't the first time
he done left them.
Yeah, I said that just yesterday.
I was just like, what job interview takes almost two hours
and what job interview allows you to go back and forth?
You know, because the guy,
the witnesses said that they saw him coming back
and forth too. Right.
Man, these folks be playing in our face every day.
Like when I listen to y'all in the morning,
every morning, somebody calling big
and it's always something going on
I mean, it's why it's hard to have empathy for folks cause you just don't you never know
You're absolutely right. What she just said is true
It's hard to have empathy for people because you just never know and sometimes somebody will send you a go fund me
I read the story and be like man go f yourself. I'm stupid. Yeah, well, he didn't call in though
Well, I don't because she was like people call and he didn't call in you guys gave
him donkey for a story that we did you read by the way I gave him donkey just

Get it off your chest.
All right, listen, listen, listen.
I feel like there's a lot going on
with this whole thing with Lil Baby
in regards to his involvement with this video
being shot down.
And I feel like he's being set up and targeted
because he's making a lot of strides
that most rappers don't make.
And I also noticed that a few months ago,
the brother came out of Harvard and was in Harvard in class.
I think it's a setup I don't like.
I mean, I want us to just be more aware
and not be so fast to judge him
and what's going on with him.
But you know, um, you get in if you I don't know
Remember, but I met you
the day before
Angela you her last day you had an event Elizabeth at at barcode and I met you that night

Come on, man.
I'm not lying to you. Yeah, yeah, yeah., I want you to take it out. Come on now for the lot of me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
I'm gonna watch it. I do want to say something too about the little baby
completing the Harvard Business School.
You know, that was just a week long program.
I'm not hating, I'm just saying.
Oh, am I going for real?
No, I'm not hating.
No, I'm not hating.
I'm just saying, I was with the program.
It was in there.
No, that's not hate.
It was a week long program.
They had a week long program.
But he took the time.
But he took the time.
But he's still winning it.
He's still getting it.
He's still, you know, succeeding the course.
Seems like he took the time, the five days,
just to go up and dance.
I mean, he's a little baby. He could have been doing stuff. No, because I'm just saying, you know, succeeded in the course. Seems like it's up to time, the five days, just to go up and there. I mean, he's Lil Baby, he could've been doing stuff.
No, cause I'm just saying, I know how people are about that.
If people out there that actually graduated from Harvard with business and graduate.
Oh, they be pissed about that.
Yeah, I thought when he said that, like, he meant like,
Lil Baby was actually going to school.
He was there.
It was a five day course.
It was a week long program at Harvard Business School.
But that's how, like, us real HBCU grads feel about people who get honorary degrees too.
Oh. Well, y'all need to donate moreU grads feel about people get honorary degrees to.
Oh.
Well, y'all need to donate more money to your schools
like we do.
Damn.
We even go to a class.

But I donated a lot of money to South Carolina State.
By the way, speaking of that, the deadline for my scholarship

State University so you

The song is called Bianca.
This is from his new album, WW3.
And the song talks about Bianca leaving him because of

but there's been a lot of them,
but because of a social media rant,
he says that she came to him and said,
look, I need you to get help.
He says she was trying to get him committed.
He said no, so she left.
So he's been tracking her through like his car app.
And until she comes back, he's not going to sleep.
He also says that he is channeling the spirit of Donda.
He feels like this is an attack
from people who voted for Hillary Clinton. And he feels like people are trying
to kill him right now.
Why would that song bring her back though? Like that ain't the song that's going to bring
her back. That's the song that's going to keep her away.
That girl Price is somewhere with some clothes on, so happy and warm finally.
If you want to beg, you better go call Keith Sweatt and put him on a hook. Because that
ain't it. Well, I mean, but it confirms all of the because you guys
remember there have been so many rumors about them being up and down like she's
leaving him the marriage is over her friend so it was like sources close to
her friends say that like she's worried and she's blah blah I think this
confirms a lot of that and what we were seeing like when they would pop out in
Tokyo wherever they were happy after those reports was probably her just trying to make sure he was good
Very similar to what Kim Kardashian went through I will say I just want to speak for me. Go ahead
I didn't need confirmation because I didn't care
I know Bianca's dad is happy though. Yeah, I'm sure Bianca dead
So I wonder who's in Kanye's camp now like who like who's he moving with and all that now because
it was just them two, right?
Academics.
Oh, absolutely.
So speaking of academics posted some texts yesterday from Kanye and the texts were in
response to what we talked about up here about Jay-Z not owning Kanye West Masters.
Like he had put that out through the academics interview
and we debunked it.
So there's a text where someone's like,
hey, Charlamagne says Jay-Z didn't own your masters.
Is that true?
Kanye says, you know what, I'm not sure.
Charlamagne won't speak up on how those women
are trafficking my black kids.
And thank you for, oh, then he thinks I'm proposing
something about Khloe.
And then he says, Charlamagne won't speak up about my position on the Jews.
He'll only speak against me.
What if 80% of what I said is fact and 20% was opinion or something I was misinformed
about.
My sentiment is still the same.
I'm not a inward who understands publishing and masters usage, etc.
I always ask what's the point of owning master tapes if you don't own the tape deck. So what does Charlamagne say?
So who does Charlamagne say owns them? I'm happy I said it out loud so I can find out
In words been black ball from having any legal representation. What is your problem with him?
You won't speak up or speak out. I don't know what he talking about. Mr.
Miss who house but I will say this why would he jump out there and make those claims against jay-z and not even know if
They're true or not
He doesn't even know who owns his catalog
He doesn't know who makes money off his catalog Kanye just be out here talking lying for attention and y'all eat it up
But his attorneys can find out who owns the master no he said he's black
Boy you don't listen
I don't listen. Damn. Hey, why the hell I don't listen? Clean your Dominican ass.
But the reason I say that is because yesterday there was a rumor that Jay-Z sold the masters
to get his masters back, which was a rumor too, they said.
All of that is nonsense. Yeah, it is. That's what I was looking at.
You know what else was ridiculous about them text messages? At the top of those text messages,
what did he say about Jay-Z? At the very top. What did he say?
Jay-Z white a word is going too far.
Remember that false idol song.
How can Kanye call JZ white ass?
Who acts more white and seeks more white validation than Kanye freaking West?
This dude is out here with white lives matter t-shirts on, selling them on his website,
swastika t-shirts, dressed up in KKK outfits and you got the nerve to call another black
man white?
A black man that's out here way more blacker than you?
Something unexpected happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield
in Bone Valley Season 1.
I just knew him as a kid.
Long silent voices from his past came forward.
And he was just staring at me.
And they had secrets of their own to share.
And he was just staring at me. And they had secrets of their own to share.
Um, Gilbert King.
I'm the son of Jeremy Lynn Scott.
I was no longer just telling the story.
I was part of it.
Every time I hear about my dad, it's, oh, he's a killer.
He's just straight evil.
I was becoming the bridge between a killer and the son he'd never known. If the cops and everything would have done their job properly,
my dad would have been in jail. I would have never existed.
I never expected to find myself in this place.
Now, I need to tell you how I got here.
At the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer.

Well, Jay-Z's ass got to do with this. He said Jay-Z's ass is white.
He said white. Amen.
You can say ass.

Yes.
What is going on here?
All right, that's the latest, I'm sorry, Lauren.
I'm sorry you couldn't get to it.
No.
All right.
I just want her to enjoy her birthday. All right, when we come back, we got front page. You know what to do. No, I'm sorry Lord. I'm sorry. All right All right when we come back we got front page
You got it all right all right up next we got front page news. It's the breakfast club. Good morning
We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get back to some front page news.
Again, we got to congratulate Carmelo Anthony.
He has been elected to the Basketball Hall of Fame.
Easy call, man.
First ballot Hall of Fame, man.
Shalupa Mello.
Absolutely.
And also the NBA is looking into John Morant.
They believe he might have been using his hands and arms to mimic a shoot like shooting a gun
Toward the Golden State Warriors bench in Tuesday's game. So what into that?
Well, you know, they don't like you using a gun stuff and pointing fingers
I think you need to change the language and stop saying shoot you shot the ball. He's shooting
I don't like who cares like, you know, it bothers me about that
But Steph Curry had 52 points in that game, 12 three-pointers.
And that's what we talking about?
Hey, I need to do an investigation.
What's up Morgan?
So Elon Musk, he will likely be stepping back from his role in the Trump administration.
The reports come after the tech billionaire Super PAC spent millions in a losing effort
to get their Republican-backed candidate on the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
Musk has repeatedly
said he'll leave his position at DOJ, the Department of Government Efficiency, within
his 130-day mandate as a non-governmental employee. So if you're not an elected official
or a non-government employee, you're just a special employee by the government, well,
you only have 130 days to work. So that sentiment was backed up by the White House spokesperson,
Caroline Levitt, who called the reports garbage
But you know Elon Musk is essentially standing to
Be done with all of this at his 130 days. You guys have any thoughts on that?
Yeah, I never understood why you long wanted to be on the front lines
Anyway, like when you look at you know, how it's impacting his business when you look at how it's impacting
Tesla like the sales are plummeting and the stocks are dropping
I never understood why he just couldn't be like every other oligarch and you look at how it's impacting Tesla, like the sales are plummeting and the stocks are dropping. I never understood why he just couldn't be
like every other oligarch and donate to these campaigns
and be the puppet master in the shadows.
I never understood why he wanted to be all up in the videos,
all up on the records, dancing.
I just never understood it.
But when he first did it-
Did he get backfired?
Well, yeah, because I thought when he first did it,
I thought the valuation of his company shot in the air crazy.
But then I guess all the other F's he been doing,
it just shot right back down.
But I thought at first it was like a good move for Tesla.
The people who buy these Teslas mostly are liberals.
Liberals are the ones who care about climate change
and the electric cars and all of that.
So like, you know, you get so tied in with Mac.
But they always say that if you're a businessman,
you know, don't get so entrenched in, you know,
any one political side.
Because what Michael Jordan say?
Republicans and Democrats buy sneakers too. Like? Republicans and Democrats both by sneaker.
Yeah, it's giving he was bored or something.
But yeah, we will see what ends up happening with much after
the fact.
We should have did what every other rich man does when they
get bored.
Go gay.
What?
Nothing, I'm sorry.
All right.
So briefly.
Go gay.
That's crazy. Oh my goodness. You bring things home. Right. Go gay.
That's crazy.
Oh my goodness.
You can't wait to give people.
I'm like, you know, you know from experience.
I just heard things.
All right, guys.
I'm going to bring things home to you in New York.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams, he's praising the dismissal of the corruption case that
was against him.
Thanking his legal team, Adams said he's happy that he can focus on the city and
the city's future and finally move on.
He's also apologizing to New Yorkers for
having to go through this with him.
Let's take a listen to New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
Let me be clear, as I said all along,
this case should have never been brought and I did nothing wrong. I'm now happy that our
city can finally close the book on this and focus solely on the future of our great city.
So a federal judge issued the decision on Wednesday morning to toss the case with prejudice,
meaning it can't be brought back to court. This week's this is weeks after the DOJ ordered
the case to be dropped and just one day after Adams is
Required to file documents to appear on the Democratic mayoral primary ballot
Which I believe you guys election day is in June, right?
So yeah, it looks like you guys are gonna be gearing up for that New York election
You know you should go listen to Eric Adams on my guy Andrew Schultz podcast flagrant
Like he talks he says he feels like he was targeted
by the Biden administration,
because he spoke out against the migrant issue.
And he said that he feels like there's a permanent government
that is in control.
Like a permanent government that regardless of what happens
in elections, who looks like the figurehead,
he said he feels like there's a permanent government
that's really in control.
I just thought that was interesting for us,
sitting there to say stuff like that.
And, but that was prior to his charges. Yeah, prior to the charges being dropped.
I'd be curious to hear from Mayor Eric Adams tap in, you know, how you feel about that now.
I mean, do you still feel that's the case being that your charges were dropped? A lot of people
are saying that, you know, all of this is happening because he was kind of chummy with
the Trump administration or that he, you know, was working with the Trump administration. So,
you know, I don't know.
We will continue to see watch that situation and see or hopefully that
particular situation, there is a closed book on his particular case.
But, you know, I know he is still running for mayor.
So we will follow that story and bringing things home to here in the DMV or in D.C.
So former President Obama is apologizing for his surprise
appearance in a family photo. He photo bombed this family. He was taking a walk on Monday
to the cherry blossoms, which you know are the cherry trees down here that were a gift
from Japan, down in the Tidal Basin when he strolled into a series of pictures being taken
of the Moore's family's young two children. Now the mom, Pamela Moore, was focused on corralling
the kids because there's no railing
and it's near the water, so they were like making sure
that the kids weren't walking towards the water
or anything like that.
But dad was like, whoa, is that Obama?
Is that Obama?
Is that Obama?
And then when the mom finally got the shots done
and all of these things, she finally surfaced
and was like, okay, what were you saying?
And yeah, it was Obama's clearest day.
Let's take a listen to the mom, Pamela,
or excuse me, Pamela Moore, in that incident.
My husband's like, that's Obama.
I didn't know he was saying that.
I'm like, yeah, whatever.
I'm looking at Preston right now.
After they're done with their shoot,
I then pick Preston up and I'm like,
what did you just say? He's like, that's Obama. I was like, what? I And I'm like, what did you just say?
He's like, that's a bomb.
I was like, what?
I was like, well, did we get a picture?
And then we went to photographer.
And she scrolled back, and we were like, we saw it.
We're like, we got it.
Yeah, why'd he apologize?
I need to see the picture.
It wasn't a real apology.
He basically caught wind of what happened
and sent a message to the kids.
It's a black family, G?
Yeah, it was a black family.
He said, President Bell, I hope you enjoyed peak bloom.
My bad for stepping into the shot.
He wasn't like a whole issued apology from like a president, but it was just like, hey,
my bad.
President Obama, if you got caught out there with your second family, just say that.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah,
nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
That don't look like no photo bomb to me.
That look like a nice family stroll.
Nah, nah, nah, Barrio.
Yo, you see how it is?
They just wore a controversy with the Black family.
See, they keep it too clean.
No, man.
Black family out there enjoying themselves.
Nah, nah, nah, Barrio.
Only controversy that man had was a different color suit,
and now Charlamagne go say he got
a different family.
My daddy had a second family.

going to miss this. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ NVJ, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne, the guy we are at the Breakfast
Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
They call him Big Ellie.
The reason I'm here, I don't want to mess with your last name, is it my style?
It's Miss Doll Rhymes with Kristall.
I made that up myself.
Oh Kristall, Ellie Mistal.
All right.
My kids used to say Ellie Rhymes with Jelly and I didn't like that at all.
So, man, it's a colorless album.
But welcome.
New book out, Bad Law.
Man, first of all, Ellie, you know, you're one of my favorite people to listen to.
I love reading your work in The Nation.
I started reading a lot more of your stuff a few years ago when I realized the Constitution
didn't mean much.
OK, not anymore.
Right.
So I'm glad you're here.
What got you into studying constitutional law?
Well, I went to law school and I hated it.
I went to Harvard Law School and part of the legal training is like they say that they're
gonna make you think like a lawyer right? So what that means is that they take the
way you think which was fine to me and they break you and then they try to
build you back up in this new like legal way of understanding the world and I
just never accepted the training. I like at every point when you're telling me that like,
oh, well, this is how it's always been done.
I'm always like by the slavers.
And I should care about that.
Why?
And just so was a constant while I was in law school,
like back and forth in terms of my professors
trying to kind of push me in a certain box
and me resisting that box.
And not, you know, not all of my professors.
One of my professors was current Supreme Court
Justice Elena Kagan. She was great, right? But I would go to her office hours and be
like, why is this like this? And she would say, Thurgood Marshall once said, it's like,
I don't give a damn what Thurgood said. He was talking for a different time. What about
our time? And so these were the conversations I had all the time. And that led to my first
book and certainly my career in general.
And that's why you feel like all laws before 1965 should be deemed unconstitutional?
I said presumptively unconstitutional, which is a legal dodge.
I'm trying to lawyer my way around that.
But my fundamental premise is that before the 1965 Voting Rights Act, which I think
is the most important piece of legislation ever passed in American history, this was
functionally apartheid country.
Not everybody who lived here could vote here. Not everybody who lived here could participate in the government here. The majority of people who lived here, if you think about not just black
people, but also Latinos and also women, couldn't actually participate in the government. What do
you call that? We have a word for that. That word is apartheid. And so if you're now going to say
that we pass some law before everybody had a say before
everybody had a vote, and that law should still be controlling
today, I say hell no. It's like Roy breaker from lock stock,
right? If the milk sour, I ain't the type of to drink it. Right?
So if you're going to go all the way back before everybody had a vote, I'm saying that, presumptively speaking, that law should mean nothing. Now, I'm not
saying that you get rid of every single law passed before 1965. Some of them I quite like,
like the 1964 Civil Rights Act. That was a good law. I also like the Sherman Antitrust
Act. I like a lot of laws that were passed before 1965, but my argument is that if we like the law we could pass it again.
We could pass it again this time asking everybody and for that example
I didn't make that up myself, right? The example that I'm using here is what they did in South Africa, right?
When South Africa got over apartheid, did they just go back to their
Afrikaner racist constitution be like, oh, we just need a couple of amendments.
We just need a couple of changes here to make make. No, they threw the whole thing out and started again, this time asking
everybody this time having a completely new delegation of all of the people of South Africa,
not just the white folks, but not no white folks. And they came up with a new constitution. So one
of the reasons why the South African constitution
is generally thought of as one of the best constitutions
in the world and ours continues to be a piece of crap.
We're talking to Elie Mastal, a new book out now,
Bad Law, 10 Popular Laws That Are Ruining America.
Can you talk about chapter three?
Who gave away the skies to the airlines?
Now, I just want you to know,
Jess and myself are reading some of your chapter titles.
Yes. We love them. We got to go through a lot of them. There's a couple that that me and her were talking
and we were like these would be good if we were on Edibles but go. Do y'all like flying? Yes. You love flying?
I do. You like flying? I hate flying. It is like the worst it is always the worst day of my life. Why? Well I'm. So I gotta squeeze myself into a small ass seat that ain't built for me.
I got somebody's seat back right into my lap.
I can't eat nothing.
The seatbelt extender?
Right.
I got to get the most embarrassing moment of my life every time I have to do it.
Ma'am, can I have a seatbelt extender?
I'm a fatty, please.
And then I have to cry on the inside then I like cry on the inside, right?
The food's expensive, the liquor sucks, the service sucks.
I'm always delayed, my bags get lost. It is miserable.
It didn't always used to be this way.
Flying used to be awesome. Spacious seats, good service, kind people,
and they weren't nickel-and-diming you at every point.
And the reason why it used to be great and now it's not is
This thing called deregulation. Mm-hmm. The idea the airline industry used to be one of the most heavily regulated industries in the country
That makes a lot of sense because we're putting metal in the sky and hoping it comes down at a survivable rate
That's crazy. So it used to be one of the most heavily regulated industries
in the country with literal price fixing.
Literally, the government set the maximum price
that you could charge for certain routes.
And I know conservatives, Republicans,
even a lot of Democrats are like, price fixing,
that's terrible, that stops innovation.
No, it doesn't.
It makes flying a public service
and it makes it easy for people to get around the country.
FDR thought it was a war plan,
thought it was part of our mobilization plan for war
to have reliable, cheap, and accessible
commercial air flight, right?
Democrats and Republicans gave the skies away
literally to corporate raiders
in the 1970s. Now, when I started researching this book, I actually assumed that this was
a Ronald Reagan program because most, you know, I don't know about your process. My
process is usually like, if I see something bad, show me the Republicans, right? Show
me what Reagan did because I'm sure it's his fault. And there's always a mustache twirling Republican, you know, behind every curtain.
But for this particular issue, this Republican plan to deregulate the airlines and let corporate,
let the market decide how we fly as opposed to the government, that was spearheaded by
the Democrats.
And as I did the research, Democrats that we all know kept coming up, Joe Biden, Ted
Kennedy, huge
in this deregulation. Stephen Breyer, one of the Democratic appointees to the Supreme
Court for a long time. There were all of these Democrats that like got sucked in, Ralph Nader,
right, got sucked into the gospel of deregulation. And once they did it, once the Republicans,
I would say, snow, snow job the Democrats into this thing,
the first thing that happened when they gave away the airlines is the thing that has killed
the Democratic Party for my entire lifetime. The Airline Deregulation Act came out in 1978.
I was born in 1978 for my entire lifeline. Labor got gutting. Airline jobs used to be
good jobs, baggage handlers and flight attendants and pilots pilots used to be one of the best jobs you could
Get and with market forces with deregulation those good jobs got slashed
Right, and then you go into the Reagan era where Reagan's like social safety net
Here's a big old hole. I'm in your social safety net." And people fell from good middle class jobs straight through down to the bottom.
And they've never forgiven the Democrats for it.
See, that's the thing that I think the Democratic Party didn't kind of realize.
When you cut labor, labor used to vote for Democrats consistently, right?
Not just black labor, white labor.
White working class laborers used to vote for Democrats.
But once the market controlled everything, Democrats weren't helping them.
And that's how they became, I believe it's part of the reason why they became obsessed with their cultural issues,
as opposed to their economic issues, because they felt like they weren't going to get ahead economically anyway.
Right? If you tell people, like, you're not going to get ahead economically, you're going to be people like you're not gonna get ahead economically, you're gonna be poor
You're gonna be struggling, but you're gonna be better off than that black person over there
They're gonna be like, okay sign me up Trump
Like that's that's how it happens you get you tell white folks that they're gonna have nothing
But they're gonna have a little bit more than black folks and white folks will sign up
All right, we got more with Ellie must I when we Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody
It's DJ envy Jess hilarious Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club
We still kicking with Ellie Mastal the author of bad law. Yeah, you had a question, right?
Chapter 9 why can't we say gay what we supposed to say?
You know as I'm sure most of your listeners are aware of I could have written the whole book just bad law in Florida like
It is going to go through the Florida. This is terrible. This is just racist. This is stupid, right?
I focused on the Florida don't say gay law because it is so particularly
Oppressive and stupid the law says that you cannot teach about gender difference
sexuality differences,
transgender issues, you can't say any of those words to school children, right? And
if you talk to certain kinds of conservatives, they're like, well that's
fine, what does a third grader need to learn about gay people? Why can't
they just learn about reading and writing, right? And I'm like, do y'all have third
graders? Like, I got a 12 year old and a nine year old, right? They talk about all this stuff,
not in a kind of lascivious sexual way, but they're interested in who and how these things work.
Right? I wonder what they'd be if they weren't taught about it in schools or shown it on
television. Yeah, because they just see it in their daily lives, right? And so I use the example,
if I, if I'm a school teacher and I'm, you teacher and I've got my wife and I have a picture of me and my wife
on my desk at school, the kids see that it's me and my wife,
that it's a man and a woman, right?
If I'm a gay school teacher and I have a picture of me
and my husband on the desk, they see that that's different.
They see that it's a man and a man.
And they might have a question about that.
And in Florida, I'm not allowed to say. Why? And so you act like it, people act like it's a man and a man and they might have a question about that and in Florida I'm not allowed to say
Why and so you act like it people act like it's neutral, but it's not it is what the scholars call
Heteronormative it's pushing the man and the woman
That's the normal way of doing it and the man and the man or the woman a woman That's just crazy and weird when you could just say like, oh, that's my husband anyway, back to math.
So what do you think about Trump's transgender bill
where it's just two genders distending
from the other one?
What is your thoughts on that?
Again, biologically it's not true.
There are people who are different.
That's just a biological fact.
We can pretend, people think that-
Is it biological or neurological?
Man, I don't know.
I'm not a scientist. people think that is it biological or neurological? Man, I don't know.
Because I said,
because you can think you're in the wrong body, but I'm not going to.
That's not biologically.
The fact that biologically is men and women.
I know. I don't think that's right.
I think that there are I again,
I have something other than a man and woman.
You have aliens.
See, now you're pushing me into-
Don't say gay.
You're getting me away from the law.
But as-
I'm just asking.
As I understand it, there are people
who are born with female hormones in male bodies, right?
Or vice versa.
And they want to express how they feel inside as opposed to how they look on the outside
But I think the larger point is not just that I don't know the larger point is I don't care
Hey, there you go. Yeah, it's not me. I'm the way that I am right
I don't care how it doesn't affect me just somebody else being trans doesn't make me think oh man
Maybe I should maybe I should be trans trans I always wanted to wear nice hats like that's not like that's not
how my whatever I tell a story in the book about in my kids class one of the one of the
kids in my younger kids class came out as a boy after being a girl at what age I want
to say eight and you know the parents were just like,
I just wasn't really how's that? The kids were just like, Yeah, whatever. It's Ramsey's now. It used to be Cleopatra. It's Ramsey's now. But then if I'm your mom, I'm like, No, I named you
Corey, how are you just gonna come up and be Shakira today? But that's between that's between
Ramsey's and his mom and the mom that's not between me and that's not that's not between
The school and the kid I don't have
Call them or her you know me because if your mama named you Cory and now you you're saying I don't want to be called
Cory I want to be called Shemeika. So now at the school supposed to call you should
Man I go to my kids go to a progressive school
We're like if my kid came in and said I want to be called ketchup today, they would call him ketchup.
They would call him what the kid wants to be called.
And I think that's just the natural thing to do.
If somebody comes and tells you their name, you say their name, right?
You don't say actually, you're Cassius Clay.
No, you say you want to be Muhammad Ali today, guess what?
You get to be Muhammad Ali.
So that kid goes to school and say I'm Batman, they're going to call you kid Batman?
They're going to call my kid Batman.
See, I think that's a little different. We can't go to school. Say I'm Batman They don't go you keep Batman. They're gonna call my kid back. I think that's a little different
We're talking about his name. Yeah, if I say yes, this is my name
You call me my name, but if I say I am ketchup and I just stand still
Different see I disagree I don't think Ramsey's does anything different in school now that he's Ramsey than he did when he was Cleopatra
I don't think that there's does anything different in school now that he's Ramsey than he did when he was Cleopatra
I don't think that there's any doesn't learn differently doesn't even lunch in a different
You might not want a different bathroom might start going to get other women on which make women uncomfortable the kids are comfortable
Yeah, the other eight-year-old girls. All right, they're only eight
Do you do you know how uncomfortable kids are in bathrooms as they hit puberty generally?
So now you send a little boy in? Yeah, but now it's a boy and a girl.
Into a private stall?
Hey.
You gotta walk past the sinks and other dudes
into a private stall.
Before you get to the private stall.
And it's like, what you doing here, Shamique?
Yeah, but you have daughters and sons.
Sons.
All right, so your sons will not get naked in front
of your wife and other women.
But he will do it in front of you, correct?
If you have to change or if it's something like that.
She's a dad.
So now imagine a girl going into a boy's bathroom where you're no he's gonna feel uncomfortable
It's gonna make him feel awkward
Don't you think and even more uncomfortable than he would then you know
So we were at city field and my boy go into the urinal and my boy just drops trout doesn't use the fly
Doesn't like just drops trout to his ankles and just takes a pee. Now I was uncomfortable.
I was like, that's, how was you raised?
Oh wait, that was me.
Like, how did that happen?
Right?
And I was like, maybe you should pull, you know,
when you're two, he's like, oh why?
It's my butt, why?
I was peeing and I was like, all right son.
He definitely sounds like your son.
All right son.
Yes, yes.
That's a fair point, right?
Like people will get over it. People will learn and again, we're talking about this
from the perspective of making things more comfortable for the heteronormative kids in
the school.
We also should be talking about this in terms of making things more comfortable for the
trans kids in the school because as much as we might say it might be uncomfortable for
the trans girl in the girls bathroom for the other girls, imagine how uncomfortable it is for the trans girl in the boys bathroom for the other girls imagine how
uncomfortable it is for the trans girl in the boys bathroom as they hit puberty
and then we know and again this is not me making it up we know statistically
speaking that trans women are the most likely people to be brutalized to be
murdered to be beaten up to be victims of domestic violence in this country. So if you're telling me that we can potentially save
some trans kids from that fate,
and the cost is that some girls
have to be a little bit uncomfortable
in a bathroom at a high school,
that is a trade that I'm willing to make
and that is a trade that I think society
should be willing to make.
I respect everybody's right to live,
but I don't wanna have this conversation no more.
Like you said earlier, it's true, I don't care.
This is how y'all lost the last election.
And I just wanna hear favorite people,
you like to listen to them.
I do, I just don't like this part of it.
So yeah, listen, take them all in all cups,
this is what we like to do.
Only, only, I don't even wanna talk about it.
Can I just get back to the law just really quickly?
Please.
Just very closely on the law of this,
the idea that we can discriminate against trans people but nobody else doesn't make sense
Legally, right if we're gonna have a law that treats everybody equal under the law
Then we have to treat trans people with the same kind of respect and decency that we treat everybody else
And once you start trying to poke holes in that you see they're not stopping at trans. They're going right to gay
They're going right to all these other things right the chapter It says the chapter gay start now. We can't say train now
We can't say trans now. We can't say say all these other things right so again from a legal standpoint equality
You want to drop your trousers?
We're not uncomfortable at all that's
We got a we revolved right? Yeah, I'm so yeah
So just legally speaking the easiest thing in the law is just to treat everybody. I got you
All right, we got more with Ellie mustow when we come back the author of bad law is the Breakfast Club. Good morning
Morning, everybody is DJ envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club
We have author of bad law Ellie Ellie Nostal joining us.
Ten popular laws that are ruining America.
Charlemagne.
Why are people so nonchalantly discussing Trump getting a third term?
Well, here's the thing.
He can't constitutionally, but what he can't do and what he can do are two very different
things.
That's right.
If you understand that we live in a fascist dictatorship, and we do, this is what it feels
like.
I know that the New York Times hasn't said, today fascism started, but like, it started.
This is, we are now living in a fascist dictatorship.
And so when you tell the fascist dictator, hey, you can't do this legally, I might be
right, but he might not care.
So if you're asking me about the law, no, there is at the
22nd amendment is ironclad on this issue. There is no wiggle room. You cannot serve. You cannot
be elected president more than twice. Doesn't matter if your terms were consecutive or non
consecutive. They were very clear at what they wanted to do when they wrote that amendment.
It's one of the most clear amendments in the entire Constitution. That said, Trump is a fascist dictator.
My man lost the 2020 election and attacked the Capitol and came this close to overturning
that election.
So who's to say that he can't do it again?
Who's to say that he can't be successful in doing it the next time?
So we can't blithely say that he can't do something just because he's legally
prevented from doing something he's already shown isn't actually give a damn
about what he's legally prevented from doing. So can I make a case for how
he'll do it? Sure I can make I like to say one of the things that makes me a
little bit of a different legal commentator than a lot of others is that
I understand what white people are capable of. I've never forgotten what
white people are capable of in this country.
And if you wanna tell me that Trump is gonna run
for a third term and has a way to win it,
I can tell you how he does it.
He gets himself,
cause remember we don't have one federal election system
in this country, we have 50.
So all he has to do is get himself on the ballot
in red states that are already capitulating to him,
enough red states to get to 270 votes.
The ballot process is controlled by the states,
not by the federal government.
You can say, well, like he shouldn't be kicked off
the ballot, but he should have been kicked off
the ballot last time, because he was in violation
of the 14th Amendment.
What does the Supreme Court do?
Oh no, we shouldn't decide such things.
It should be up to the, 14th Amendment,
he should have been kicked off last time,
but the Supreme Court didn't step in. Will they step in next time? I don't know.
So what Al Sharpton and everybody's saying is BS, that that can't happen. That's untrue.
It can.
No, it's not BS. It can't happen legally.
Got you.
But let's not fool ourselves to think that Trump is not willing to act illegally. He
can illegally get himself on the ballot. He can illegally get himself to some version of 270 votes
and he can illegally declare that he is still the president
and who's gonna check him, boo?
Who's gonna actually stop him from doing that?
It won't be the Supreme Court.
I love the article you wrote for the Nation card.
It's impossible to overstate the damage done
by the Supreme Court.
Do you think the Supreme Court would back him
in something like that?
I don't know.
Wow.
Not only do I not know that they would back him,
if they don't, I don't know that he would follow their order.
Yeah.
There's been no evidence that Trump is gonna follow
a Supreme Court order that he doesn't like,
and more to the point, there's been absolutely no evidence
that he's going to enforce a Supreme Court order
on the co-president, Elon Musk, that he's going to enforce a Supreme Court order on the co-president Elon Musk that he doesn't like
So even if the Supreme Court stands up to him and I'm putting that in air quotes
There's no evidence that he'll actually listen to them because he controlled anything that he controls the physical power of her
And I think people really under have to understand this in a kind of chest thumping way
Like if he physically controls it because he physically controls the army
He physically controls the paramilitary. He physically controls the secret police if he physically can control something. He doesn't have to listen to nobody
Legal illegal doesn't actually matter to him if he has physical control now
If he only has control because he's got to get other people to do his bidding in the states, in the localities.
That's a place where the Supreme Court can kind of step in and maybe show some spine,
right?
So if you think about these lawsuits that he has in New York against, like, Kathy Hochul,
if it's a situation where, like, he has to force Kathy Hochul to do something and Kathy
Hochul says no, and the Supreme Court says no, well, then I don't think Trump can't
force her to do it unless he's literally willing to put you know boots on the GW
Hmm, which he might but you know, then we'd have some real traffic problems in Fort Lee
But if it's something that he has complete physical control over I see no evidence of him actually following the Supreme Court order
Is there anything that you feel like this presidency has done good at all was everything bad?
Not one thing because there is not one thing that fascism does well and if
I give them that credit I legitimize all of it. It's one of the reasons why I was
so angry at Schumer's capitulation on the budget deal. If you say that you can
work with these people here, there, and whatever, what you're fundamentally
saying is that you just have a little bit of a disagreement on this, that, and
the other thing. You're not actually fighting fascism you're just playing normal
Partisan politics right from my perspective Trump is a fascist threat to the country nothing
He do can be it can be okay, and I want to say that about other Republicans
I wanted to say that about Mitt Romney or John McCain or even w dick Cheney different
But but even w right you could find some things that you could work together with those people on because they were
fundamentally democratic presidents, I mean democratic with a small D right
Presidents who believed in democracy don't get gay. Oh, we can't say gay
Don't get gay cuz you say a small D and they were just thinking of small penis
No, you were. What's wrong with you Jess?
I've got a couple more questions. I said small D and I said just thinking of small penises. No, you weren't. Yes, y'all were. What's wrong with you, Jess?
I've got a couple more questions.
I said small D and I said Bush like in the same thing.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
Just a can of ****, but you know.
What was the significance of Cory Booker's filibuster?
One of the things that Democrats can do, since they have no political power, is start building
narratives, start building movements, and start building momentum towards change.
Right?
One of the reasons why I wrote my book.
Look, I wrote this before the election, before Joe Biden's first debate.
I knew we were in trouble by the time, you know, while I was writing it.
I was under no illusions.
But I kept writing it and I kept thinking that this would be a good time to release
it because from my perspective, if we lost, this book then becomes my first attempt to
write Project 2029.
Ooh, I like that.
These people are out here writing Project 2025.
When did they start writing that?
In 2021, when they had no power.
When they had no political power whatsoever,
that's when they started their plans
for this current MAGA revolution.
So from my perspective, this is the time
when we have no power,
that we need to actually start thinking bigger
and start thinking more
Actively, right when Republicans come into office
They come in with a sledgehammer and they smash things smash things that I hold dear smash things that I care about right when
Democrats come into office we come in with like super glue and tape and we're gonna like put the base back together to make
We got to smash some things my book is about what we can smash what Corey was doing is
that same kind of idea of building momentum to something bigger and that
is the best use of democratic power at this point because something unexpected
happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield in Bone Valley Season 1. I just knew him as a kid.
Long silent voices from his past came forward.
And he was just staring at me.
And they had secrets of their own to share.
Gilbert King, I'm the son of Jeremy Lynn Scott.
I was no longer just telling the story.
I was part of it.
Every time I hear about my dad, it's, oh, he's a killer.
He's just straight evil.
I was becoming the bridge between a killer and the son he'd never known.
If the cops and everything would have done their job properly, my dad would have been
in jail.
I would have never existed.
I never expected to find myself in this place.
Now, I need to tell you how I got here.
At the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer. Bone Valley, season two, Jeremy. Jeremy,
I want to tell you something. Listen to new episodes of Bone Valley, season two, starting
April 9th on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And to
hear the entire new season ad free with exclusive content starting April 9th, subscribe to Lava
for Good Plus on Apple podcasts.
It's the only power that they have. You can't actually stand up to them legally because
you have no authority. You can't send them to Congress because you have no authority.
Now, I think they should be doing more than placards at the State of the Union. That was pathetic.
Doing what Cory Booker did, breaking racist Strom Thurman's record on the Senate floor. These are
the narratives and stories that we can be building now so that by the time we get to 2026, I'm not
even talking about 2028, tell me get to 2026, primary season, that's the fight. Whether it lasts two years or five years or 10 years or 25 years is entirely up to us.
All right.
Well, Ellie Mostel's new book, Bad Law, 10 Popular Laws That Are Ruining America.
I learned a lot from you, Ellie.
I like reading your stuff, man.
You are very good at what you do.
I learned a lot in this interview, so I appreciate you.
Thank you. Thank you so much. All right. Ladies and gentlemen, pick up the new book bad law. It's the breakfast club. Good morning morning
Everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious. I mean the guy we are the breakfast club
All right, let's get to the latest along She gets him from somebody that knows somebody. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
She be having the latest on it.
The latest with Lauren LaRosa.
Sometimes she have facts, sometimes she have details, sometimes she have a little bit of everything.
But what's the latest?
On The Breakfast Club.
Talk to me.
So Drake just got a victory in court in the legal back and forth that he's having right now with Universal Music Group.
So yesterday, Judge Jeanette Vargas in New York denied Universal Music Group's request
to stay Discovery.
So Universal Music Group was saying, yo, can you pause on this whole Discovery letting
us let Drake and team get into our business until we explore the motion to dismiss this
whole thing that
they have asked.
They want it thrown out.
They say it's BS.
He's just mad because he lost a rap battle.
A judge said, well, we're still going to, you know, that motion to dismiss, it's still
going to happen.
And they set a date for that.
But no, I think that the discovery thing can happen and should happen.
So I'm not going to say that we're going to stop it.
This is a big deal. What that mean now though?
That means that Drake and team can go in and do what they've been saying that they wanted
to do for a very long time.
They can go in, they can look at contracts, including things that are in relation to Kendrick
Lamar, emails, phone conversations, basically just come in and get all in the business of
communications and processes and operations and all of that stuff.
I seen that yesterday stuff for UMG.
So they'll be able to get Kendrick's contract
to UMG, his signing contract, and his deals and all that?
That sounds crazy.
Well, they haven't done it yet.
They just got the go ahead to be able to move forward.
I don't know specifically which contracts they're asking for,
but I think, I don't know,
why would they need a signing contract?
What are they gonna discover
that they don't already know, though?
That the machine puts a little extra o know, a little extra umph behind
records that are already moving, just like I'm sure they're doing with Nokia
right now.
Yeah.
Well, um, what are they gonna find out?
I think what they trying to go in and find out is like any wrongdoing of the
machine making umph and all that stuff.
If it's wrongdoing, then it's typical record industry practices that have been going on
since the beginning of time.
That people like Drake have benefited from, that people like Kyrgyz have benefited from,
that all of their artists benefit from.
But what if it's not?
What if it's not?
None.
That's going to make you look crazy.
Yeah, we talk about-
If they ain't even know file play, nothing going on.
It's like a baseball player looking for steroids and you're like, oh, it's the same stuff I've
been using.
Whether you know you was using it or not.
No, but to Jess's point,
we talked about this on the podcast yesterday,
the latest with Lauren LaRosa.
I said that if there's nothing found,
he just looks like a crybaby.
It just looks like, you know what I mean?
But if there is things found,
and it can be something small,
like it could be one employee that happened to maybe
send an Uber or send a gift or something that can look- Send an Uber? I mean, cause you have certain rules- You think Kendrick Lamar maybe send an Uber or something that can look.
I mean, cause there's certain, you have certain rules.
No, I just mean like there's certain rules around like bribery and you know, I'm sure.
I don't know all the rules when it comes to radio, but I know like.
But that's not going to be in a contract.
And the sad thing about it is not going to be in a contract.
It's not just contracts though.
You stupid.
It's not just contracts though. You're stupid.
But if you look at a judge, does the judge know exactly about the music industry to see what he's giving permission for? Like giving up Kendrick's contract, and I don't know what's in
Kendrick's contract, but giving up how much money he's making and the money that's spent,
that's nobody's business but Kendrick and his label. Like why would that want to go to somebody
else? But that's only one part of it. And I think once we see which contracts they pull
and which information they focus on,
we can kind of better understand why they did that.
Another part of it was,
remember they talked about the bots or whatever
that they alleged that Kendrick was a...
Now Drake-
The same bots that have been used for all artists.
All Drake is going to expose his secrets
that have helped him too.
And I don't even know if they're secrets,
to be honest with you.
Are they secrets?
Or is that just standard record business practices
at this point?
I thought it was standard record business practices.
All this stuff, the bots, everything.
They'll be talking about it.
The bots don't matter no more
because Drake's team yesterday in the court said
that they've exchanged some letters back and forth
and they're withdrawing those claims.
They're gonna focus on other stuff.
They really are trying to figure out
the bigger picture of this.
It's like the money that was put into bigger things, not a few random bots or whatever. But that's what they're gonna focus on other stuff. They really are trying to, I think, figure out the bigger picture of this, is like,
the money that was put into bigger things,
not a few random boxes, whatever.
But that's what they're looking for,
the money that's put in Spotify,
that's put in the streaming service,
that's put in the radio, that's put in the TV,
that's what they're looking to see.
The same money that's been put in the Drake
for the last decade, what are we talking,
why was it like, come on, why we acting like-
The use of streaming farms is what they
backed away from yesterday.
You think all artists haven't been beneficiaries of that
because of these labels? Why we acting cluelueless here people? Well Drake's lawyer spoke out
yesterday when this was released there was a short press release and at the bottom he
had a one line statement he said now it's time to see what UMG was so desperately trying
to hide. Now I did reach out to UMG for a comment on this and have not heard back yet.
I don't think UMG is trying to hide I think UMG doesn't want to have to open the books for this artist and then they have to
do it for every other artist.
So they're just trying to protect UMG.
I don't think they have anything to hide.
The battery and somebody else back.
Well maybe Drake needs to see this for his own good because maybe he thinks Toosie Slide
really went number one because it was a good record and that record was trash.
Maybe he thinks Slime U Out went number one because it was a good record and that record
was also trash.
Slime U Out went number one after we talked about it in here.
I remember that. I don't remember any of that. it i do but all i'm simply saying is maybe he needs
to see that for his own benefit because you've been a beneficiary of these performance enhancing
drugs as well well umg actually uh they're arguing that the whole discovery evidence gathering
process would be premature it would impose undue burdens on them especially given the potential
that the case could be dismissed so they're saying we don't mind a discovery, but just wait, let's have the dismissal conversation
first because if it's going to be dismissed, why we got to put all these resources and
time and energy to do all this.
So we'll see what happens.
Nobody's winning but the lawyers.
Period.
So you got two minutes.
Okay, another one.
Yeah.
So Young Thug yesterday, there was a motion filed by the state of Georgia to revoke Young
Thug's probation.
Jesus.
Yes. So the motion filed in Fulton County Superior Court yesterday claimed that Young Thug
demonstrated a blatant disregard for the law, the safety of the witnesses, and the integrity of the
judicial proceedings because he posted a now deleted photo online of one of the Fulton County
investigators. Her name is Marissa Ververit.
So she was testifying this week during the YSL trial.
And in relation to the, remember those, those little boys that were shot that we talked
about, the 13 year old little boys in relation to all that stuff.
And the court basically had barred video, photos, all of that stuff.
And Doug posted a photo, he called her the biggest liar in the DA's office.
And she's saying that because of that,
she's received threats.
Her family has received threats.
There's people flooding her comments.
A ton of basically like,
she feels like she's in danger because of that.
So they're saying this presents a clear
and present danger to public safety. And it's at the hands of young Thug
Which is should be a violation of his probation now Thug came out because he deleted all these tweets
But he came on and said I don't make threats to people. I'm a good person
I would never condone anyone threatening anyone or definitely participating in
Any of the above I'm all about peace and love. Thug gotta be careful. I don't even know why he tweeting about stuff like this.
He tweeted about the young scooter.
15 years probation, 15 years probation.
They will do everything in their power
to try to lock him back up.
He has to be very, very careful.
Yeah, why do people care about social media so much?
What is the lower social media?
Because even if you're thinking that in your head,
why run to X or whatever to post that?
Like there's gotta be something in you that says,
that's just not a smart thing to do.
Nah, not when he has 15 years probation
and they will try anything to lock his ass back up.
They can't wait.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't understand that.
I would be so scared to even,
I wouldn't even, I don't even walk by the court
if I'm the, like across the street,
don't even take me in the vicinity.
No, I don't got no reason to be mentioning them people
publicly.
Nah, not at all.
At all.
Yeah, well, we'll have to see what happens with this
because if they do determine that this was a violation or there was a threat or whatever, there can all. At all. Yeah. Well, we'll have to see what happens with this because if they do determine that this
was a violation or there was a threat or whatever, there can be consequences.
So Jesus, you know, they already mad that he got away.
Yes.
For the most part.
I mean, you know, they got him on the probation for the next 15 years.
Yeah.
For the most part, he got away.
They are waiting for him to bring him back.
Yes, absolutely.
And if he messes up the sentence that was stayed, remember they take some of the time
away.
Yeah. To do the full 20.
Yeah, he could potentially have to do that as well.
A very slippery slope.
Turn, he has to fight that again.
Makes no sense, you stupid.
That is crazy.
Yeah.
All right, well thank you for the latest with Laurie.
Welcome.
Shala Biden!
Yes.
Who you giving donkey to?
You know, far after the hour, I have an update
on a donkey that I did earlier this week.
Remember Chris Lewis, the brother from Augusta, Georgia,
who was arrested for deprivation of a minor
after he left his kids unattended at a McDonald's.
I don't remember that one.
Yeah, we haven't, we have an update,
more of a double down, actually.
A double down, a double down on the heat, huh?
Because Envy was ready crap for this man.
I didn't, I said he deserved.
Shut up.
From the information that I got.
Yeah, that's why y'all gotta shut up.
You give it and go fund me, Dunkey?
No.
No. We'll talk about it next for me, Dunkey? No.
We'll talk about it next.
We'll talk about it before I put it out.
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. There's a bunch of donkeys out here in the street. That is why Charlamagne the Kid. We live a life where we bite our tongue based off who we may offend.
We never will say anything.
You don't give a damn, don't throw at him.
Hey!
Charlamagne, give it to him!
Give it to him!
On The Breakfast Club.
In the words of Charlamagne the God, he's a donkey.
He ain't give a f***ing ho.
Oh man, Charlamagne, you giving donkey the day to who now?
Well Buster Rhymes, Donkey Today for Thursday Thursday April 3rd is a double down to a donkey that I did earlier this week. Chris Lewis the 24 year old brother from
Augusta Georgia who was arrested for deprivation of a minor after he left his
kids three kids ages 10, 6 and 1 years old at a McDonald's unattended because
he had a job interview. Can I refresh
your memory? Let's go to Fox26Houston for the report please. A job interview ends badly for a
man in Georgia. Chris Lewis was arrested March 22nd. Police say he left his kids in a McDonald's
by themselves while he went to an interview for a job. He reportedly told police he did not have a car and lived nearby.
Lewis said instead of making his three kids, who are one, six and ten years old, walk home
alone, he decided to make them stay in the restaurant. What we know is he was there from
4th, the kids were there from 430, he returned at 6 618 and then the mother was on the way as well
but we don't know if she was called by police or him after the fact or if she was on the
way anyway.
Now let's talk I gave him donkey today for one simple reason you know jeopardize your
child safety in the pursuit of employment because there is no job on this planet that
would make up for something happening to your child in that McDonald's it's that simple.
Salute to the good sister Toni Rivera. Drop on the clues
mind for Toni Rivera. You know she's always out here providing you know
human trafficking awareness and she told me is so much trafficking going on in
Atlanta in the Georgia area. She said black kids are going for a high rate
right now. She said 75 grand and up okay and you're just gonna leave your three
beautiful black babies 10, 6, and 1 to fend for themselves in a fast food
restaurant for an hour and a half.
Times may be hard, but they're gonna be even harder if, God forbid, something tragic
had happened to those kids. Now y'all called up to this radio station, y'all was all in the comments
telling me I forgot where I came from, as if I ever came from a place
where my parents was leaving me unattended at a fast food restaurant. I see people starting
GoFundMe's for the young man. Antonio Brown, as of this morning,
has raised almost 80,000 grand for him.
Okay, the post on the GoFundMe says,
"'Story' called me by surprise.
"'A dad just trying to find a way
"'to make money for his family.
"'I know he shouldn't just leave his kids,
"'but some people don't have the means
"'for babysitting, et cetera.
"'This GoFundMe is set in place to help this man.
"'I have spoken with GoFundMe,
"'and they will get the funds to Chris and his family.
I haven't spoken to Chris yet, but I hope to do so soon.
You haven't spoken to Chris,
but you're organizing to raise money for him.
Why?
You don't want to vet the brother
and make sure the story is what he says it is
because to me, and I said this yesterday,
the story wasn't adding up.
I wasn't trying to cast doubt on the brother's story,
even though his story sounded like it had
bacterial vaginosis, okay?
Yes?
Vaginosis.
Well, whatever, it just sounded fishy, okay?
I was just pointing out the fact that a job,
our job interview shouldn't come before
the safety of your kids, okay?
A man's job is to protect and provide,
and protect comes before provision for a reason.
To me, when I heard the story, it didn't make sense.
These kids were left alone for an hour and a half.
What job interview lasts that long?
And witnesses said they kept seeing Chris walk back and forth.
What job interview lets you just keep walking back and forth? Oh, Charlamagne,
you don't have no empathy. Charlamagne, you're speaking from a place of privilege.
No, I'm speaking from a place of common sense and common sense ain't that common
in this modern era. So today we have an update from the same outlet that I got the story from the Augusta Press.
The Richmond County authorities released a full report Wednesday with more details and
based on the video evidence and the timeline provided by all parties involved, it was determined
that Chris Lewis was not, I repeat, was not engaged in a job interview or application process during the time the children were left unattended.
He was not really looking for a job while the children were at McDonald's.
Can I give you some details from the police report and the noted inconsistencies Captain Danny Whitehead noted in regards to the whereabouts of Chris while his children were left attended?
Okay, let's start with the 10 year old.
You know the kids gonna tell it.
Okay, she told offices that her siblings and her father
walked to McDonald's from the Hendrix apartment complex.
She said her daddy told her he had to deliver a backpack
to the apartment complex and told her he would return shortly.
The child also mentioned that her father, Chris,
frequently leaves them alone.
Two witnesses said they recalled hearing Chris
on the phone with someone,
and he was overheard saying
he needed to drop something off.
The witnesses stated that after this,
the father left McDonald's, leaving the children behind
for approximately an hour and a half.
The 10-year-old daughter contacted her mother
on social media. At approximately
6pm, the mother arrived at McDonald's at 612pm. She advised that Chris was supposed to deliver
a backpack to her mother at the Hendricks Apartments and had been told that he must
take the children with him. The kids mother immediately called Chris who answered and
stated that he was on the way back to McDonald's from the apartment complex. Chris arrived at 6 18 p.m. still in possession of the
backpack and he told his child's mother that he had been trying to find her to
give her the backpack and the children's mother reminded him that he was not
supposed to leave the children unattended. Don't go refunding your money
from GoFundMe now.
Listen to the rest. Now Chris claimed he left the kids at McDonald's because he
went to fill out a job application at the West Bank Inn which is located
adjacent to the McDonald's and he was waiting for a callback for a possible
interview. He said he left to drop the backpack off at the apartment complex
but during the time he lost his ID and he lost another
card and he had been retracing his steps trying to find them. Oh you can feel the niggatry in this
story rising. So Captain Whitehead went to the West Bank Inn to verify Chris's story. He spoke
to the manager and she confirmed that Chris did come in on March 22nd and he did complete a job
application.
She also conducted an informal interview
with him on that date.
When asked if Chris would be expecting a call back
for a formal interview, she said no.
The manager provided video surveillance footage
of when Chris was there.
Guess what the times were?
What were the times?
1 12 p.m. to 1 37 p.m.
The kids were left unattended at McDonald's from 4 30 p.m. to 6 12 p.m. to 1 37 p.m. The kids were left unattended at McDonald's from 4 30 p.m.
to 6 12 p.m. So as I said before based on the video evidence and the timeline
provided by all parties involved Chris was not engaged and a job interview when
he left the kids at McDonald's furthermore by his own admission he was
walking between McDonald's in the apartment complex you know during that
period in the distance between the two
locations is 0.4 miles.
Now, don't let any of that distract you from the fact that regardless of what Chris was
doing during this time, you don't jeopardize your child's safety in the pursuit of employment
or anything else because there is no job or anything else you could be doing that would
make up for something happening to your child
when you leave them unattended for an hour and a half in a public place.
I'm just doubling down on Donkey today.
You can discuss amongst yourselves.
Please let Remy Ma give Chris Lewis the biggest hee haw.
Hee haw, hee haw.
You stupid mother f**ker, are you dumb?
Thoughts?
I knew it.
I knew it.
And everyone's up here
No, I don't think the brother should get you know
He's just lock him up slap him on the wrist and let him go cuz he was trying to do something
He was out here serving scramble coke and smack. Dang you you walking back and forth and all of that
How you turn McDonald's into a daycare like what's wrong with you? See you can't change the goalpost
Like what's wrong with you? See you can't change the goalpost
Charlamagne moved the goalpost and you can't change it either. See Charlamagne reported exactly what happened And that's what we made a decision based off what he said
Okay
Now if Charlamagne didn't give the right information a couple of days ago because a couple of days ago
Charlamagne said this man was doing a job
I'm going for a job application. Did he or did he not say that a couple days ago? No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no that a couple days ago? No, no, no. So now
he's changed it. We did this based on what you said. You're not going to distract me.
What did I just finish saying? Because you know, Embi, don't listen. I said don't let
any of that distract you from the fact that regardless of what Chris was doing during
this time, you don't jeopardize your child's safety in the pursuit of employment or anything
else. I gave him donkey of the day for leaving the kids unattended at a McDonald's for an hour
and a half. I don't give a damn what he was doing during that hour and a half.
I said I agree he should get donkey of the day but if he was actually going to
a job interview and was not doing no F-ish I didn't think he should have been arrested.
It don't matter what he was doing. You don't leave your children unattended.
And I said I agree.
As the child's mom said, the child's mom said just to you don't leave your kids unattended.
I don't agree.
And I said I agree.
That's why I gave him donkey today.
I just didn't feel he should have got arrested if he was really getting a job.
You should just hold yourself accountable for not reading niggertree the right way.
And then also.
You gave me the niggertree the right way. And then also... That's what...
You gave me the niggertree.
No, I didn't.
And also, I spotted...
I smelled the niggertree a long time ago when...
You did, because you said your baby daddy would do something like that.
I never said that in my life.
Never, ever, ever.
Now, Rome would leave the kids with a random girl that he'd known for three days, but he
not going to leave his kids in a public place, let alone a McDonald's.
By the way, that's crazy, too.
Leaving the kids alone with a random girl let alone a McDonald's. By the way, that's crazy too, leaving them kids alone
with a random girl for three days is crazy.
Absolutely, but it beats leaving them
in a fast food restaurant.
It's about the same.
Yeah, it is kind of about the same.
It's kind of the same, I'm being honest.
I don't think McDonald's might be worse,
because at least you got somebody watching the kid.
You don't know what the person might do to the kids.
But at least somebody's watching them.
Just leaving them unattended in McDonald's for an hour and a half, that's crazy.
It's crazy.
And the little 10-year-old baby girl, she said, my dad do this all the time.
Like I already knew what that was.
She getting tired of being a parent at McDonald's.
Once again, you don't jeopardize your child's safety and the pursuit of employment or anything
else.
There is no reason to leave your 10-year-old, 6 and 1 year old unattended at a day at McDonald's for an hour and a half.

It's getting very much messy, let me fix it.
Morning everybody, it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious,
Charlamagne the guy, we are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Jess Fix My Mess. Hello, it's DJ NV, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club.
It's time for Jess Fix My Mess. Hello, who's this?
Hi, yes, this is Alyssa, Paula from Jersey.
What's up, Alyssa from Jersey? What's your question for Jess?
Okay, so my daughter's father, me and him became kind of like best friends.
Like he became more like an older brother to me than more like a baby father. Like, I mean, like even open, he basically has an open invitation
to all of my family functions.
Like, he don't even have to be invited.
Like, you know, he could show up, no problem, whatever.
So me and him, we used to sit or talk on the phone all the time.
Like, I would tell him what's going on in my life.
He would tell me what's going on in his life.
I had three other kids that's not his.
I would talk, you know, about my kids.
I was like, nothing.
So one day I'm going through my daughter's phone
cause she's a teenager.
I periodically check my kids' phones.
That's right.
And I see messages from,
he has a whole girlfriend that I knew nothing about.
And I see messages from this girl,
texting my daughter saying how much he miss her
and how much he love my daughter.
So at that point, like I feel disrespected
because I'm like, I thought we was like, cool, you know?
I thought we was friends,
like I thought we had a good co-parent relationship,
like, you know, so why is it that we just sit on the phone
and talk for hours, but she didn't feel comfortable enough
to tell me that, you know what I'm saying?
You had a female and not only that,
like you was leaving my daughter around her.
Now I'm not mad about that because my daughter is a, she's a teenager.
She can open her mouth and she can say whatever she wants to say.
But as her mom, I feel like I deserve the right to know where my kid going to be at
when she not in my presence, especially since he lives eight hours away from me.
OK, I totally understand.
All right. Now you said I'm out full and I'm going to just tackle this part
because I can sympathize with you with that because me and my son's dad are the same way.
You know, we call each other brother and sister.
We're cool.
He's invited to all of my family functions as I'm invited to his.
I treat his kids with the same respect I treat my kids with.
Like we're all we all intermingle.
Everything is cool.
Right now.
Now, if Rome didn't tell me that he had a girlfriend
I would not be that upset because I understand what you're saying you feel more so betrayed
by your friend that he didn't come to you with this information because y'all talk about
everything else you feel like why the hell you couldn't tell me that she was in a relationship
what's up but you shouldn't be that angry about it.
And then listen, are there any feelings there for him?
Like any, like be honest, is there any chance that y'all would have a reconcile enough to be back together?
Do you have that, you still got a little crush on your baby?
I'm gonna talk about, you like him in the slightest way.
Is there anything there?
Yeah, we were we were together in a whole other state and we'll broke up I just packed up and left and I came back Oh, so I feel like there's a lot of things in our relationship that didn't actually get closer
You never yes, so you never you never got that closure because you just up and left.
Right, exactly.
Y'all never talked about anything.
You never, okay.
So yes, there is still some type of feelings there and now you kind of resent him a little
bit because now he has this girlfriend and things and you feel like, yo, you didn't even
really, we didn't really even fully close our chapter and
That's probably honestly why he didn't tell you about her because he feel the same way you feel right okay?
Yeah, you got to still like kind of understand his point of view to like I don't want to tell
I don't want to ruin me and my baby mama's relationship. We were great although. We didn't end
relationship we were great although we didn't end like the greatest we we didn't give any check we didn't give each other any clarification on like what we were doing you know the end
all be all of it we never like fully said goodbye the right way or whatever he probably
feel the same way you feel but he's eight hours away what do you expect for him to do
and I know you got a little something going on with somebody else, too Right. Yeah, so my right. So so don't be upset. It's just a conversation
Yeah, no, no, no. I'm just saying I would have never
Disrespected him and given some
Winked daughter's phone number without him even knowing that this guy existed because you basically gave this woman like full access
to my child even when she's not down there with y'all.
You get what I'm saying?
How old is your daughter?
She's she's 13 now.
Okay.
And so she didn't she didn't tell you about the lady either.
You just had to go through the phone and find out.
Yeah, I have been to be going through her phone.
Yeah, yeah.
Again, I feel like it's a conversation.
I feel like both of y'all still have unresolved issues and unresolved feelings.
And y'all just need to meet.
This ain't no phone conversation.
Y'all need to see each other.
And you need to tell him exactly how you feel.
And I guarantee you that's going to open the door for him to tell you exactly how he feels and y'all I guarantee you y'all probably feel the same way.
Okay.
Yeah but let me know call back up next Thursday do it before next Thursday so I can know.
Okay I will.
Alright girl thank you.
Alrighty mama.
Alright just fix my mess 800-585-1051 call us up right now it's the Breakfast Club good
morning.
Tell her baby!
It's the real deal help Help me! Help me!
Oh my god. I'm all up in your mess. I'ma fix it.
Fix my mess? Fix it. Jess gon' fix your mess, cause my advice is real.
Morning everybody, it's DJ, Envy, Jess, Hilarious, Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast
Club. We're in the middle of Jess Fix My Mess. We got Bob on the line. Bob, what's up?
Hey, hey, I'm just kidding real kidding real Bob is not that's just an idiot
we know Bob is not your name bro we know that
I know hey but look look I'm gonna face it real cause Charlamagne a real dude and Charlamagne probably gonna cut me out of my sh** head so look
no cursing
I go by strength you know what my child's a good friend probably gonna hear this but yes I got a question because I feel some type of when I feel like I should have a conversation with my friend on this.
But so we have a mentor or somebody who's been in our lives for like at least 10, 15
years, like, you know what I'm saying, kind of have been helping us out with advice and
things like that.
And it's four of us that all grew up, you know what I'm saying, kind of under his mentorship.
I'm the youngest out of the four.
The oldest person is who I have a question about because I want to talk
more about this. Like I want to approach him about it because I feel like what he did was wrong.
Okay. So he basically texts our mentor's wife and was like, hey, your friends are some HOEs.
I feel like that's kind of out of pocket because like the dude, you know what I'm saying, no matter
what we've all been through, dude ain't never looked at us different. He's always up to that with our families.
Like it's like kind of like to me,
it's like disrespecting your husband.
And like the fact that you even text the dude
and was like, hey, your wife mad at you yet?
Like to me it's out of pocket
because I feel like if either one of us
would have texted your wife that,
you'd have been upset and you wanted to fight it.
And you know him out of all people,
he's not gonna necessarily physically do anything to you.
He may not talk to you for a bit. He may pray for you. You know what I'm saying? He's probably gonna start
praying for you more, but there's nothing else he's gonna do and you know that. And I just feel like,
bro, that's wild, man. Like, come on, bro. So wait, so wait, so wait. Okay. Let's back it up.
So one of your friends texted y'all's mentor and told him that his wife or text the mentor's wife.
He texted the mentor's wife and said, Hey, your friends are some H O E.
How did he get the mentors wife's number?
We all had, we like I said, we've all, they've been married for at least 10 years.
We've all known them for at least 15.
Okay.
Okay.
So we're all like, like we're like family, you know what I'm saying?
And I guess y'all were hanging around her friends and they showed some.
No, no, no, no, we've no. We've never hung around any friends.
It ain't never like that.
We've always hung around him.
This is why the techs would have texted her that because we don't hang around her, we
don't hang around her friends.
You know, like we're all grown and adults now.
We don't hang around them like that anymore.
We're not kids.
Right.
I don't understand why the techs even went to the wife.
Exactly.
I'm just not understanding. Right, I don't understand why the text even went to the wife. Um, I don't
Understanding. Yeah, so what so your question to me is like what you should do about this or what?
Something unexpected happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield in Bone Valley Season 1.
I just knew him as a kid. Long silent voices from his past came forward. And he was just staring at me. And they had secrets of their own to share. Gilbert King, I'm the son of Jeremy Lynn Scott.
I was no longer just telling the story.
I was part of it.
Every time I hear about my dad, it's, oh, he's a killer.
He's just straight evil.
I was becoming the bridge between a killer and the son he'd never known.
If the cops and everything would have done their job properly, my dad would have been
in jail.
I would have never existed.
I never expected to find myself in this place.
Now I need to tell you how I got here. At the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer.

Valley Season 2 starting April 9th on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever

I'm not married, but if I was married, would you text that to the person I'm with by her
friends like, yeah, bro,. We don't have words. Yeah
You ever think about this though and it's wrong
It is definitely wrong and since you can't figure out exactly why he would text her that when y'all hang around his friends
Put when y'all haven't hung around his wife's friends either. He's just lying
He's a delusional as dude or he knows something that y'all don't know because he actually did get to hang around
No, no
Hanging without y'all yo, he might like the old chicks man, and they might get down
with the get down
With the get down, he wanted his... Especially if they hoin'.
No, it ain't... look.
Alright, so here's the thing.
I hate to bring waste into this, okay?
Okay.
But even more the dynamic.
They're a white couple.
We're all black.
Oh, okay.
So that means...
Oh, so you're saying like, bro.
They're biblically Christian faced.
Like, they go to church every Sunday.
Like, they are like the idea like, you know what I'm saying, what the other side would
do as a couple.
The test of faith.
They're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like,
they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're
like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like,
they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're like, they're to church every Sunday. Like they are like the ideal like, you know what I'm saying, what the other side would
view as a couple, successful couple.
You know what I'm saying?
So that's why I'm like, bro, no, like it just doesn't make sense.
And like you text out, you text our mentor and like, hey, your wife mad at you yet.
Like bro, what?
Oh, so yeah, he text the wife and then text the mentor.
Yeah.
So yeah, you just pull up on your homie.
Talk to your homie, just talk to him.
I feel like, you know what I'm saying,
if we all holding each other accountable,
because like, I ain't lying, I've done some messed up stuff
and they've all held me accountable for it.
Yeah, so.
So I just feel like.
Definitely.
This could be like us holding you accountable,
like bro, that's foul, like, I'm not gonna lie.
Like I said, if you would have done that, bro,
I can't say with everything on the radio,
but yeah, we definitely have words.
Yeah, no for sure. Okay, so no, that's just, if that's what it is. I think you should hit your homie. You all grew up together
You should be able to have that conversation with him and figure out exactly what happened
And I bet you you better call back next Thursday because I bet you he gonna tell you something that you didn't even know
I'm telling I'm telling you then you let you told me
I'm telling you, you told me they were white and they went to church and all that. Hey, I won't be surprised if he probably listens and they call in and all y'all say something
about it.
You know what I'm saying?
Listen, call back next Thursday.
I bet you he's going to tell you some things that you did not know and that y'all wouldn't
even expect from them white church people.
I bet you.
Hey, say no more.
I got you.
I'll keep you posted.
All right.
Thank you.
All right.
What's wrong with the mentor's wife being hoes though?
That's what I'm saying.
No, the mentor is wife's friends. Yeah, what's wrong with the mentor's wife being hoes though? That's what I'm saying. No, the mentor is wife's friends.
Yeah, what's wrong with the mentor's wife's friends being hoes?
I don't know why that's so hard to believe that he probably cracked one of them.
And then, you know what I mean?
And he texted the wife like, yo, your friends hoes, you know what I mean?
With a bunch of white 50-some-year-old hoes, man?
Y'all supposed to be slinging big peepee and getting paid.
Correct.
Them Karens and Beckys cut a check.
Damn right.
The only thing an old white woman gonna love
is a young black man.
So I'm like, yo homie.
I think it's a young black penis.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a young black penis.
And I don't think.
I like the fantasy type thing, right?
His homeboy, yeah, it's like a whole fetish.
Like what?
Dr. Umar wouldn't approve, but shoot, you know.
Right, and this dude do not believe that.
Like he's underestimating his homeboy.
Now I do think it's corny for the dude
to text that to the wife.
To text that to the wife.
When he's slowing up the spot.
And then go and text the mentor,
like is your wife mad at you?
Like yo, you obviously ain't never had
no white pom pom ever.
Mm mm mm.
And you ain't getting paid for it.
Probably not.
Dudes always asking where the hoes at,
they with your mentor's wife.
Just fix my mess.

She gets them from 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 this.
She say I'm the biggest.
The largest.
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. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit of
everything.
Who is the latest?
On The Breakfast Club.
Talk to me.
So we want to take some time to send a congratulations to USC sophomore guard, Juju Watkins.
Juju!
Yes, so she was named the winner of the 2025 Naismith Women's College Basketball Player
of the Year Award.
Well deserved.
Yesterday.
Yes, for sure.
And I think what the past couple months or like, you know, I mean, it's been a lot with
her and her injury and her season ending.
The last couple of weeks.
Yeah.
Dang.
Yeah.
It really hurts to see Juju go down because they would have definitely, in my humble opinion,
been in the Final Four.
I think they would have beat UConn and they'd be in the Final Four right now.
Yeah. Well, although that happened, you know'd be in the final four right now Yeah, well although that happened
You know this is historic because she is now the first USC player to win the women's college player of the year award since
The legendary Lisa Leslie in 1994 so you know it's unfortunate
You know that her season ended the way it did
But I'm sure she's really excited about this because she posted it and said she is so grateful so
her grass yeah, man and It's in other news about this because she posted it and said she is so grateful. So congratulations to her. Yeah man.
And in other news, Friday the movie, I know that I think was Mike Epps he was up here
he talked about it happening. But now Variety just announced that Ice Cube has closed a deal
for this to happen. Not just announced, but Variety announced that Ice Cube has closed
a deal for Friday to happen at Warner Brothers and New Line. So he's reached a deal to write and star in the new Friday movie
for Warner Brothers and New Line Cinema. The new feature, which is titled Last Friday, will mark
the fourth entry in the comedy series and then the first in over 20 years following up after Friday
after next in from 2002. So Ice Cube has been, you know, open about his plans plans to make another Friday movie though his agreement with Warner to star and direct
marks a significant development in the project. So congratulations Ice Cube and
it's happening. That's what Mike said when he was here I think he said
Cube had just did the deal. I don't remember the third, I remember the third one. That's Ricky Smiley played the Santa Claus. Santa Claus. Oh, oh, oh, yes, yes, yes. The Hollywood one, yeah.
You just need a little storyline reminder
and you'll remember it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's because the first and second one is like,
well, the first one is untouchable.
The second one was cool.
And you know, the third one,
the third one is always like, oh, okay, nice.
The third one could have been a TV show.
Could have been.
Yeah, it didn't have to be a movie.
Yeah.
How many episodes of that TV show have been?
Like two.
Maybe two. Wait, four, 30 minutes a piece. No, three. Yeah, something like that have to be a movie. How many episodes of that TV show have been? Like two. Maybe two.
Wait, four?
30 minutes a piece?
No, three.
Yeah, it's something like that.
But it didn't seem like a continuation of Friday,
because if you watched the first one,
and the third one, it's like damn, yeah.
Got you.
Well, I'm just happy to see it was happening,
because I know for a while he was complaining
that he couldn't get the support from the studios
and stuff that he was needed.
If this is the last one, Chris Tucker gotta be.
Got to.
He gotta be. He gotta have all the worlds needed. If this is the last one, Chris Tucker gotta be there. Got to. He gotta be.
You gotta have all the worlds combined
and Chris Tucker the day they,
but then everybody's so,
John Witherspoon no longer here.
He passed.
I know.
Devo no longer here.
Devo passed.
Bernie Mac no longer here.
Yeah, Bernie Mac passed.
Even though Bernie Mac, he was the preacher though,
his part was real quick,
they could still make it without some of the acts,
but I feel like some of the acts they need like Devo.
John Witherspoon, Devo.
Yeah, that's Pops, you know what I mean?
What happened to his family?
We ain't even see his family the last two movies.
We ain't see Craig's mama, Craig's sister.
Yeah, and Regina King is the sister,
yup, Neil Long is the, yeah, he can still make it work.
If Felicia's still smoking crack,
isn't Paul can still find?
Hell no, she look good.
Wait, wait, is Craig's mom still alive?
Then she passed. Oh, D? Yeah, she mom still alive? She passed.
Oh, Dee? Yeah, she's still alive.
She ain't around here somewhere.
Jess, they need you for this movie.

That woman is 72 years old.
Jess's last is really 72.
Dee, Dee, around here somewhere.
See her.
Whatever.
That's all we got, though? Yeah, that's all we got low.
Yeah, that's all we got.
All right, cool.
So look scenario, right?
So no, you know, I always give you two men to choose from, but I want to know what you
would do in this situation.
You still trying to find my man?
Absolutely.
I told her about the day you told me about your city.
I thought we got past this.
We're not passing until she lands a man.
We're not going to be past it.
Now you don't want me to be happy first.
It's like, ah, she ain't got no man.
I kind of want you to be here a little bit, but just clearly still doesn't. But continue.
Hey y'all, I want you to be here tonight. Don't do that. Stupid.
Oh my God.
Listen, all right, cool. I ain't gonna be the one reporting, so you gotta be here. So
listen, all right, you're dating this guy for six months. Y'all six months in. He moved
you in. Of course he wooed you and everything. You met his family and all he's successful. Now y'all are out one night, right? And on
your way out of the restaurant, a bisexual guy comes up to your man and he says, Oh,
this will be doing now. Listen and walks away. That's all he said. And your man didn't really
give a response. He just
kind of brushed it off like, oh, whatever. Come on, he grabbed your hand and y'all get
in the car. First thing you do is immediately ask, what the hell was that about? And he
tells you that that guy from years ago was his assistant. He was once his assistant and
he didn't like how he was terminated once the company went under and he's just upset.
And that's the first time he's seen him in years
What do you do? Do you believe that do you do more digging or do you just automatically throw him in the boat with the guy?
He's in the boat and I'm definitely gonna dig first of all. I'm not walking out the restaurant. Where are you turning now? We got to have a conference call. This is a press conference now. I need to understand
What you mean? Okay, so what would you have said to the guy Cause you're Lauren LaRosa and one thing you do is reach out.
So the thing is,
Reach out and touch her.
You go reach out to the guy.
Let's hold hands and agree that I need to have a real
conversation of what did you mean by that?
What do you mean this is what we're doing now?
What was y'all relationship?
What was the, I'm confused cause it's giving me that
y'all used to deal with each other and I didn't know
that that was a past thing if so.
But the guy, his disposition, you know,
your man is like,
This is great.
Like, look, go, I don't even, I ain't even got time for this.
He grab your hand and the guy switches off like, okay.
This is so sad.
You know?
I don't care what my man is giving
because one thing they gonna do is downplaying.
One thing I'm gonna do, get to the bottom of it.
Okay, okay, and what if you got your man phone later
and saw that he texted a gay guy,
first of all, she's trans.
Oh! Oh!
It's a little about her?
Yes.
Now, I'm not even asking questions. I'm out.
You alright?
Yeah, I can't date a bisexual man.
That is the latest with Lauren.
This is sad.
First of all, she's sad.
You know what?
Because she can't even get a man. You're trying to just make up a fake man for her and she can't even get that right.
Oh my God.
That is so messed up.
I did nothing wrong.
This is a scenario that I'm creating.
