Wake the f*** up Breakfast Club. DJ Envy. Envy playing by record, I made it. Jess Hilarious. Jess be with f***s.
Starting point is 00:00:16 She don't spare nobody. Charlamagne Tha God. What made you think the liking of Controversial Questions would take this far? I like this show. Thanks Breakfast Club. Good morning, USA. Hey, what's happening? How y'all feel out there? Hey, it's Friday. The weekend is here. How you feeling? How you feeling, Lori?
Starting point is 00:00:48 I feel great. I feel amazing. On time with my makeup this morning. There you go. All right. Why are you pausing? I'm a little tired. I'm just tired.
Starting point is 00:00:57 I'm not tired. I know you're not tired. I'm very well rested. I feel blessed, black, and highly favored. Another day to come in here and serve our beautiful Breakfast Club listeners. You know, I always try to tell people, man, you know, humility. Humility is what, you know, just keeps you going in life. That's one of my models.
Starting point is 00:01:15 One of my models is keep God first, stay humble, and keep working. And, you know, I feel like that not just about myself, but about all my teams. Really, I only have one team. I only have one sports team that I really root for. And it's the Dallas Cowboys. Drop one of the clues, moms, for my Dallas Cowboys. Humble, 2-2, 500 record. You know, the road to the Super Bowl has a lot of obstacles and a lot of hurdles.
Starting point is 00:01:39 And we take, you know, our wins with our losses. They just are what they are. We had a great game last night. Okay? Not really, but we won. So I don't care. The W is the W. Have a great day.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Envy, what's your losing speech? You shouldn't have one. Losers don't get to talk. I'm just going to say, we'll try again next week. That's all I can say. We'll try again next week. I waited up last night because I was expecting and hoping for a major comeback. I was praying.
Starting point is 00:02:08 I was watching the game. There's no way you believed that. I did believe it. There's no way you believed that with Daniel Jacobs as your quarterback. Whatever the hell his name is. What's his name? Daniel Jones. It don't even matter.
Starting point is 00:02:18 It doesn't even matter what his name is. The guy is terrible. I mean, he sucks. Nice looking fella. Probably should be a model or something, but quarterback in the NFL? No, not for him. He didn't do that bad yesterday. He didn't do that good either.
Starting point is 00:02:32 That's the story of his career. He doesn't do that good. He doesn't do that bad. He actually sucks, honestly. The interception he threw at the end of the game? Terrible. He's just horrible. The interception he threw at the end of the game, oh, terrible. He's just terrible. All jokes aside,
Starting point is 00:02:48 if you could get another quarterback, would you want one? Tell the truth. Yes. Okay, just making sure. I didn't want to get rid of Saquon Barkley, but I would prefer to give the money to Saquon and find another quarterback.
Starting point is 00:02:57 That was just me. Yeah, find another quarterback, man. I don't run an organization, but that's what I would have wanted to do. Yeah, he's not, but Danny Jones isn't bad. He's just underwhelming. I'm lying.
Starting point is 00:03:08 He sucks like he's at a freak-off. Okay. Okay? That's just the reality of the situation. Now you want to send him baby oil. Stop. Okay. But he does.
Starting point is 00:03:15 He throws the ball like he's got baby oil on his hands. Okay? Okay. All right. Enough's enough. All right. All right. Well, Swerve Strickland will be joining us this morning.

Starting point is 00:04:04 It's cute. Do you like it? Yeah, it's cute you like it it's cute do you like it i like it's cute you know you like it yeah it's cute by the way radio is the only place that still says world premieres like that song ain't been on uh screaming services for the last six hours last night i don't even know why we still say that it's just it's world premier like no it's actually not i mean it's been out on nine and we should actually say something like um from your playlist our radio something like that but you know that would take somebody sitting around being creative. It's hard to do nowadays in radio. Especially on a Friday.
Starting point is 00:04:28 All right. Well, let's get to it right now. Saweetie, is it the way? Front page news is next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Law and La Rosa filling in for Jess Hilarious. And let's get in some front page news. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, good morning. Happy Friday and cheers to the mother effing weekend. I'm not even going to do sports. You can just jump right in. Dallas Cowboys beat the New York Giants.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Don't matter what the score was. A W is a W, okay? Let's talk about that. But y'all lost to the Ravens last week. Okay, let's talk about that. It don't even matter. We still got a better record than the Ravens. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:05:04 We're 500. You're 1-2. We still got a better record than the Ravens. Okay, okay. We're 500. You're one in two. You're talking heavy today, Sharla. He did. He's choosing violence early on a Friday. It's because of the weekend. He got two days. Anyways, let's get into it.
Starting point is 00:05:14 More details are coming out about New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who is being accused of bribery, receiving campaign contributions from foreign nationals and wire fraud. Damian Williams, United States Attorney in New York, announced the charges in a press conference yesterday. Let's hear what that sounded like. Today we are announcing campaign finance, bribery, and conspiracy charges against Eric Adams, the mayor of New York City. As the indictment alleges, Mayor Adams engaged in a long-running conspiracy in which he solicited and knowingly accepted illegal campaign contributions from foreign donors and corporations. As we allege, Mayor Adams took these contributions even though he knew they were illegal. And even though he knew these contributions were attempts by a Turkish government official and Turkish businessmen to buy influence with him. Yeah, they went on and on and on and listed different instances in which the mayor actually may have or alleged that the mayor, yeah, he was doing these acts. Now, before federal authorities announced the charges yesterday, Mayor Adams, he held a press conference urging New Yorkers not to rush to judgment.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Let's hear those comments from Mayor Adams. This is not surprising to us at all. The actions that have unfolded over the last 10 months. Yeah. The leaks, the commentary, the demonizing. It's an unfortunate day and it's a painful day. But inside of all of that, it's a day where we will finally reveal why for 10 months I have gone through this. And I ask New Yorkers to wait to hear our defense before making any judgments. I will continue to do the job for 8.3 million
Starting point is 00:07:08 New Yorkers that I was elected to do. This comes as other elected officials are calling for him to step down. And that presser was actually interrupted by protesters who said this is a youth thing talking to the mayor, not a black thing. So they don't, you know, black population say don't get it. Don't know. Why are we in it? Federal agents also carried out a search of his New York City residence yesterday morning, literally while we were on the radio. 6 a.m.
Starting point is 00:07:34 Several agents showed up to Gracie Mansion. A lawyer for Adam said they were looking for his phone, which was seized last year by FBI agents and his campaign has been under investigation since 2021 for alleging the conspiring with Turkish government for illegal donations. Now, New York Governor Kathy Hochul, she hints that she might take action against him. She made a statement late last night saying that she wrote that her options, she's reviewing her options and obligations, describing the Adams incident or the indictment rather as the latest in the disturbing pattern of events that has contributed to a sense of unease. She went on to say, I expect that the mayor will take a few days to review the situation and find an appropriate appropriate path forward to ensure the people of New York City are being well served by their leaders. Now, Adams and Hochul have been key allies since they both took office. So I know this is hard for the governor and the mayor to be having to deal with this type of thing.
Starting point is 00:08:33 What are you guys thoughts on after the press conferences and everything that's come out? I don't know, y'all. I thought it was going to be way more. I felt like the way that they led this up, the everything they did prior to. And I know they got to get evidence to prove whatever they need to prove. And I know that if this is true, what was done is a crime. But the way that they painted this picture, I thought he was bringing bombs over from somewhere or something. I was like, wait, this is it? This is illegal.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Yes, if he did it. But I don't know. I expected more. legal yes if he did it but like i don't know it just i expect it more but they were saying they have they have to prove that uh eric adams gave favoritism to whoever gave those uh donations and if they can't prove that he gave favoritism or move something because of those donations it really means nothing so we'll see i don't i don't know if he'll step down it seems like they're trying to force him to step down now i mean it's interesting right like uh i've heard mayor adams here on the Breakfast Club say he feels like black mayors are under attack all over America.
Starting point is 00:09:28 I've heard people say, I think it was yesterday, I think it was the front of the Post, one of the papers, I forgot, but they said they believe it's because he spoke out against the Biden administration in regards to the migrant crisis. Matter of fact, Mayor Adams said that here, too, on Breakfast Club, but the reality is they can't get you on anything if
Starting point is 00:09:43 you don't have anything. You know what I mean? So you do even if you do speak out you know against you know an administration uh if they go looking under the hood for something if there's nothing there it's nothing there but if there's something there they're going to use it against you i do just wonder how many politicians you know take illegal contributions like this i i just wonder if you looked under the hood of all of these elected officials, how many people take what they call illegal contributions, free flights in exchange for doing
Starting point is 00:10:12 things like pushing building permits or just anything. I just wonder if you go searching under the hood of all these elected officials, how many of them do stuff like this? That's what I felt too. I felt like it's something that we probably don't know but happens all the time, but it's not right. But I don't know, but happens all the time. But it's not right. But I don't know.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Probably more common than we know is what you're getting at. Yes. All right. We'll get into, you know, we're watching now Tropical Storm Helene has been demoted from a hurricane to a tropical storm. We'll talk more about that. The VP and President Biden on the other side. I will also say, too, it made me want to just look into Turkish Airlines. You know, I like looking at airlines and seeing how nice they are. I wonder how nice Turkish Airlines is. Because, boy, when I was looking at them prices for them upgrades,
Starting point is 00:10:56 it was like 30 grand for him to fly in business class. They said an extra 16K for one flight. I was like, well, what do they do on them flights? That's what I want to see. Because I've flown Emirates before. Emirates is amazing. But I'd want to see what Turkish Airlines is hitting on. Yeah, Turkish is expensive, so is Emirates. They're both comparable.
Starting point is 00:11:09 I like Emirates a little better, though. You've been on Turkish before? Yes. Where does Turkish fly? Just Turkey? No, no, no, no. It flies everywhere overseas. It usually flies where Emirates flies.
Starting point is 00:11:18 Really? Yeah. Oh, okay. All right. Well, that is front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now.

Starting point is 00:13:24 Whether you're mad or blessed We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Blast Hello, who's this? Hey yo, peace, this is T from the kitchen Yo, yo, I got two things I want to get off my chest real fast, man It's this Cardi B and this Offset situation Yo, I, I, man, like, sometimes it's just like, yo, bro You just gotta understand
Starting point is 00:13:44 If you ain't got that whole dog without you, I mean, don't be in no relationship, man. Don't take no woman down with the meat ass
Starting point is 00:13:52 of your mental health, bro, because that's just a temptation that's gonna ruin everything and that moment that you gonna fuck up,
Starting point is 00:13:59 that shit don't even be worth it half of the time. I mean, I'm gonna need my king to just stand up and do his own business and stop treating these women like this.
Starting point is 00:14:08 There's no other woman that's going to hold you down the one that you got unless the one that you do dirty the most. The one that you got kids with. I don't want to bring up the fact that this T.I. situation with his son, big up to him, real father privilege type shit. I don't agree with kids actually having both parents
Starting point is 00:14:26 in a household and you're pretending to be tough. You're not from the hood. You got to have to deal with no struggle. Stop acting like that. I mean, play Fortnite. Mind your business. Go do regular kids stuff. For you to be acting like
Starting point is 00:14:41 you're from the hood, that's like a long hurdle, bro. And I just had to get that off my chest real fast. Let's talk about some things, King, because you're unpacking some things this morning. Some of the things I agree with. How old are you? I'm 38. You're 38 years old. I'm assuming you got a woman,
Starting point is 00:14:58 right? I do. I got a wife. A wife. At what point did you get your mind right and realize everything you just said? Because I'm not disagreeing with anything you just said. My first mess up. My first mess up. You know, you got a strong woman sometimes and you make mistakes.
Starting point is 00:15:15 I mean, as a man, we make mistakes. Stand on your business and accept the fact that you made a mistake and that you got a good woman in your corner. I agree. A lot of men. That's a fact. I agree. But lot of men... That's a fact. I agree, but that's why as men, we do got to give Offset some grace
Starting point is 00:15:28 because he'll get there. Now, whether or not his woman is still there when he gets there, that's a different story. But you got to give the brother some grace because we all be there. Hopefully he'll get there. Absolutely. That's a fact.
Starting point is 00:15:39 I appreciate y'all. I listen to y'all every morning, man. Yes, sir. I hear this rolling, this rain right now, B. Be safe out there, brother. And you could only have one parent in your household to be tough? If you have a father in the mother, he can't be tough? I'm just curious.
Starting point is 00:15:54 He's just saying that when you come from a stable household, the chances of you doing dumb stuff is less likely. I guess that's what he's saying. Okay. Because I know a lot of people that's tough that got mom and dads in their life. It's just the way they was raised or where they're from. But anyway, I see what you're saying. I think he's saying I'm staying his lane.
Starting point is 00:16:13 Yeah, I see what he was saying as far as with T.I. But anyway. Hello, who's this? D from Queens. How you doing, fella? Queens. What part of Queens, D? I'm actually from Hollis.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Oh, Hollis. Okay. You know, I went to school right there at St. Joaquin Manan across the street from PS 35. Oh, I know. I know, A&P. What's going on, fellas? What's going on?
Starting point is 00:16:30 Get it off your chest. I'm tired of y'all justifying when evil black people do stuff because a white person evil did something. What Eric Adams did was wrong. Period. I don't care that he's black. Wrong is wrong. Stop saying it's not a big deal.
Starting point is 00:16:46 I read the whole indictment because I was just bored. And it was like a building that didn't pass fire code that he just let go. And some of this stuff is easily provable, actually. And then there was also something
Starting point is 00:16:57 with campaign finance where he defrauded the cities of millions of dollars, but then he wants to close libraries. And y'all acting like it's no big deal. What's going on with y'all? Who said it's no big deal? But y'all keep saying, oh, there's
Starting point is 00:17:09 politics, but you're both siding it out of both sides of your mouth. Talk about, well, there's politicians that do stuff wrong all the time. So what? He got caught. There's people on speed all the time, but some people get a ticket. Okay, so what's wrong with asking the question? I wonder how many politicians take illegal...
Starting point is 00:17:25 I said take illegal contributions like this, acknowledging that it's illegal. And I said, even if Mayor Adams is out here saying he's under attack or they're coming at him because of the Biden administration, they can't attack you if you don't have nothing to attack. So what are you talking about? Yeah, but you're talking about both sides of your
Starting point is 00:17:41 mouth. You say, oh, well, this one does this. But why is this? Who cares what other people do? He should be gone. Nobody said that, sir. You're implying it. You're implying both sides like, okay, well, this person did this, but why is he the one getting singled out? Nobody did that. Nobody
Starting point is 00:17:58 said that. That's how you feel. Nobody said that. Nobody on this radio station said that this morning. We only heard one side of what's going on. I mean, the brother is innocent to proven guilty. He has to get his day in court. So, I mean, even though the indictment says what the indictment says, I'm sure there's an Eric Adams side. And that's what we have to do. I know that's one thing.
Starting point is 00:18:15 We have to sit there and wait for court and wait till we hear Eric Adams side. And then we can go from there. Yeah, because I'm really interested to hear how he's going to defend the stuff that they're saying. And I don't think it's anything wrong with asking these questions. I think that's a fair statement. If you're going to say, hey, you're under attack because you're a black man, or if you're going to say, hey, the Biden administration is targeting me because I spoke out against the migrant crisis, all of that could be true.
Starting point is 00:18:39 But they can't attack you if they don't have nothing to attack. Hello, who's this? What up? My name is Will. Will, what up? Get it off your chest, Will. Man, first thing, I want to say good morning to y'all. I'm from Louisville, KY. Man, my thoughts about the murder, I just feel like that it's a double standard.
Starting point is 00:18:56 You know, the whole political game is bought and paid for. All the politicians, you know, they pass gun laws and stuff. The gun companies come to them and fund certain campaigns and stuff. Like, that's the whole game. So I just feel like it's a double standard. Y'all heard the dude Hill Harper come up here and explain that. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot about
Starting point is 00:19:15 Hill Harper, yep. Well, he said the guy got $20 million for his campaign. Yeah, like, that's the game. Like, y'all can't be mad because he want to do it. But y'all know how it go It's cool when they do it It's a problem when we do it And nobody's saying that
Starting point is 00:19:29 By the way, we don't know if that is true And nobody's saying that is right All we're simply saying is I wonder how many politicians Take illegal contributions like this If you looked under the hood How many people are doing things Like Mayor Eric Adams
Starting point is 00:19:43 I'm not saying that it's right either way. It's just a question. It's a statement. It's an observation. All right. Well, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Now, when we come back, we got Jess with the mess with Law and La Rosa?
Starting point is 00:19:54 We do. There has been a guilty verdict in the murder of young Dolph. So we're going to talk about that. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:20:06 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess. And let's get to Jess with the mess with Lauren LaRosa. News is real, web. This is real. Jessica Robin Moore.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Jess don't do no lying. Don't do no lying. She don't stir nobody. Worldwide Jess. Worldwide Jeff, worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. She's the coach of shit. With Lauren, Lauren LaRosa. I'm back.
Starting point is 00:20:33 And I got the mess. Talk to me. So yesterday, Justin Johnson, one of the shooters in the Young Dolph case, was found guilty. He was found guilty of first-degree murder to commit first degree murder felon and then being a felon in possession of a firearm. After his co-defendant, Cornelius Smith, Jr. provided testimony. We went through that testimony earlier in this week. Now, he was sentenced immediately after the verdict was read. He was sentenced to life in prison.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Johnson was the only one on trial this week. And originally he did plead not guilty. Now, Cornelius Smith, who provided the testimony, who's also charged with first degree murder for killing Dolph and who provided that testimony, will be charged later. So he'll actually be charged on november 15th he'll appear november 15th and then go then hernandez go then who was the guy that put them on to the hit he's back in court on october 9th originally smith and govan were supposed to be in court on september 30th but that was reset after the verdict um and immediately after the verdict was entered the defense uh acts for an acquittal.
Starting point is 00:21:46 And that's common. Normally, prosecutors do that. That's common. They'll put in a motion to acquit following, you know, something like this. But it was instantly, it's going to be denied. The judge denied the motion already, actually. Yeah, the judge has actually already denied the motion. So we'll just have to wait for the other people to be sentenced. But because of testimony it's like a slim dunk we can hear you now you couldn't you couldn't hear
Starting point is 00:22:08 us the whole time yo yo can you hear us i don't think you can hear us you don't know we in it yeah he was found guilty uh yesterday yes uh he was given life in prison yep uh and it's just so sad that that brother lost his life over nothing you know i mean yes um over what they wanted was a hundred thousand dollars yo yo yo yo yo yo 40 000 uh a priest and and the person that set it up was getting 10 000 from each it was just disgusting that that that a life was lost over some money very much and i want to take a listen to the verdict being read in the courtroom to uh justin we the jury find the defendant guilty of conspiracy to commit first degree murder as charged in count one of the indictment
Starting point is 00:22:50 we the jury find the defendant guilty of first degree murder as charged in count two of the indictment and we the jury find the defendant guilty of convicted felon in possession of a firearm as charged in count three of the indictment. Thank you. The jury has found you guilty of conspiracy to commit first degree murder. First degree murder and convicted felon in possession of a firearm. As the 13th juror, I affirm this verdict. As to the first degree murder, I sentence you to life in prison. Now, Justin did not testify for himself. And this all happened. i didn't change nothing
Starting point is 00:23:26 either that's my the jury took under four hours to deliberate and decide this uh it was three days of testimony this was the fourth day um now we do have a reaction dolph's sister who had been in the courtroom she actually testified one of the the days as well too she spoke to the media after the verdict was read let's take a listen We ask that instead of focusing on those Who committed this crime You focus on the man that Adolph Robert Thornton was Regardless of the name that you may know him as Such as Adolph, Dolph or Young Dolph
Starting point is 00:23:58 We ask you to remember the man who enjoyed being a father And spending time with his family We ask that you remember the man who enjoyed giving opportunities to those who were often overlooked and counted out. We ask that you remember the man who enjoyed giving back to others and being an inspiration and knowing that they are seen and can change their outcomes and the lives of others by doing something positive. Now, that was his sister uh
Starting point is 00:24:26 mia also spoke out yesterday you know mia came up here and talked about her black men deserve to go old organization and she said today's verdict brings relief and restores my confidence in the justice system and remember she was here she was saying that they felt like they weren't getting answers to certain things that they deserved answers to and they were finding out stuff literally on the news um so she said that her belief in the justice system has been restored on behalf of her family and herself she'd like to thank law enforcement the prosecution everyone involved for their diligent work the past three years have marked the loss of adolf and the events leading to the trial have been incredibly frustrating
Starting point is 00:24:56 her faith she says has been tested but adolf's tragic execution has only uh strengthened her resolve to fight for justice not only for him but for other black men so you know hoping that this brings some comfort to the family and the rest of the guys once they're you know sentenced and stuff will bring some comfort to the family as well too i mean it's so sad and as a community we gotta smarten up i mean the fact that this brother lost his life he's no longer gonna be with his wife he's no longer gonna be with his kids for some money some money a hundred thousand dollars was worth that man's life and they didn't even get paid a hundred thousand they got paid
Starting point is 00:25:29 eight hundred dollars and now that man is no longer here and now you're serving life in prison you'll never get out you'll never see the outside ever again over uh some money right well yeah i think charlotte was trying to come back and i think we had him on too now can you hear him now go ahead i don't even feel like talking no more yeah so yeah it is really sad so send me a big big hug uh because they had to be tested like you know i can't imagine hearing all that testimony as well too so she's gonna have to the family that i mean the kids i mean it's all online it's just so sad man and and what dolph has done for that city and how he's helped out city from the turkey drives to the toy giveaways to giving back to the communities to scholarships to all that stuff man y'all lost a good brother man I will I will say I will say this though I
Starting point is 00:26:14 don't think we should blame that on a whole community those are two individuals who made a poor choice and and I don't know the whole details of the situation but it just sounds like a couple of brothers who made a poor choice. I don't think you can blame that on a whole community because somebody like Dolph was a great example of a brother doing good for his hood and doing good for his community. And it's just sad that he got killed in his community by a couple of brothers who decided to make a poor choice. And when I say community, I mean, we have to do better. Not just this Dolph situation. We have to do better with gun violence we have to do better with controlling our emotions we have to do better with beef we have to do because i mean the way that
Starting point is 00:26:53 that people are dying so crazy in the last couple of years it just seems like people don't nobody has value for life and that's the saddest individuals have to make uh better choices that's why i stress you know just investing know, just investing in your personal mental health because you got to be the change you want to see in the world. Like none of the, no community, no environment is going to change until the people in the environment
Starting point is 00:27:15 make a conscious decision to change as individuals. I agree. All right. Well, that is just what the mess with Law on the Road. So now when we come back, we got front page news with Morgan. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:27:27 You're checking out the Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ, Envy, Jess, and Larry. It's Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Law and the Rose are filling in for Jess. And let's get in some front page news. Morgan, let's get right to it.
Starting point is 00:27:38 After the football scores. All right, let's do it. It don't matter what the score was, but just know that the Dallas Cowboys beat the New York Giants last night. Our record is 2-2. The New York Giants are 1-3. Okay? Let's just throw that out there. You know what else is insufferable?
Starting point is 00:27:52 Hurricane Helene. We're now dealing with the aftermath of a hurricane because the hurricane has been downgraded to a tropical storm. Helene still has maximum sustained winds of 70 miles per hour as it rolls across southern Georgia and is still causing heavy rains and life-threatening storm surge. A tropical storm warning remains in effect for parts of northern Florida, and a storm surge warning is in effect for Florida's Big Bend region, where Helene first came ashore as the strongest hurricane in history to hit Florida's Big Bend region. Now, the storm should weaken as it moves inland, though damaging winds are still expected
Starting point is 00:28:25 in parts of the southeastern U.S. and into southern Appalachians. Tornadoes are also possible in the morning in eastern Georgia, the Carolinas and southern Virginia. Now, President Biden and VP Harris spoke about the storm yesterday at an event at the White House, urging people to take it seriously and also noted that FEMA resources are available to areas impacted by the storm. Three deaths have been reported as a result of the storm, two in Florida, one in Georgia, and a host of outages in the path of that storm. So we are, of course, sending people in the path of that storm well wishes and make sure you take advantage of those resources that are available. Now, President Biden and VP Harris and the White House Office of Gun Violence and Prevention
Starting point is 00:29:09 announced new executive orders yesterday to improve school-based active shooter drills to combat the emerging threats of machine gun conversion devices like switches, 3D printing, and they also increased funding for community violence intervention. Here's a quick clip from President Biden regarding that announcement. Talk about reducing crime. If you want to talk about reducing crime and violence in America, you need to talk about guns in America. So on Thursday, both the BP and the president noted that the number one cause of death for children in America is gun violence. And they said that must change. They said, while they're still in favor of the second amendment, they agree.
Starting point is 00:29:47 It is time to reinstate an assault weapons ban and pass common sense gun laws. I think you guys should have Action Jackson on here to talk more about that. Those efforts, because it is Action Jackson. Call him. God bless the day. I thought he passed away. No, no no not that actually i'm sorry i called he's that's what he calls himself his name is gregory jackson he's the
Starting point is 00:30:10 head of the white house office of gun violence and prevention but mainly it's about it's about having um you know the awareness i mean we talked about it before but they're making these efforts to make sure that people are aware that you know guns are killing people at disparaging rates and it's unnecessary to the level that it is um There was a busy, busy day at the White House yesterday. So, of course, President Biden and Vice President Harris, they hosted Ukraine President Vladimir Zelensky, and they are reaffirming their support for Ukraine. Let's hear from Biden and Harris in regards to those efforts. And to be clear, Russia will not prevail in war. Russia will not prevail. Ukraine will prevail, and we'll continue to stand by you every step of the way.
Starting point is 00:30:55 I've been proud to stand with Ukraine. I will continue to stand with Ukraine, and I will work to ensure Ukraine prevails in this war. So, of course, this comes as the Ukrainian president visited the White House and the war against Russia rages on. Now, Zelensky also spoke. He's presenting his victory plan in separate meetings with President Biden and Vice President Harris. for more immediate help to fight off Russia's invasion and will ask for long-term security guarantees that may stay in place after the American leadership changes. Let's hear from Zelensky. Today we are preparing to discard the details to strengthen the plan, coordinate our positions, views, and approaches.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Our teams will work together to ensure the implementation of our future steps i wonder how much it costs to win a war you know what i mean like like what is the number like how is there a number that people know where they say hey if you spend this much money on a war you're probably going to win the war it's like you know with presidential campaigns they know if you spend you know a certain amount of money is a great chance that you'll probably win the election. Like, I wonder how much it costs to win a war. Well, it depends, I'm sure, who you're warring with and how much money they have.
Starting point is 00:32:09 Because if you spend $100 and they spend $100, I mean, or they spend $200, I guess it has to be with whoever you're fighting, how much they're spending as well. But that's my point. How much does it cost to win a war? It's got to be big bank take little bank, right? Absolutely. Yeah, it's definitely who got the most money. So I think that's essentially where Zelensky is coming from. big take little big right absolutely uh yeah it's definitely uh who got the most money so i think that's essentially where zelinski is coming from he's looking for support from us and of course those other nato allies speaking of what that number is i really want to know what that number
Starting point is 00:32:33 is yeah well i'll look into that for you um and see if i can have that for you on monday uh meanwhile uh president former president donald trump he is meeting with zelinski today uh let's hear what trump has to say in regards to that meeting. As you know, President Zelensky has asked to meet with me, and I will be meeting with him tomorrow morning at around 9.45 in Trump Tower. Europe is paying only a small fraction of the money that the United States of America is paying, and we have an ocean between Russia and ourselves. They don't.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Zelensky having that just-in-case meeting. He was like, you know, just in case Donald Trump does win in November. Let me make sure we're still good. Absolutely. So Trump says he does have a plan about negotiating the end of the war between Ukraine and Russia. He again asserted the war would not have even started
Starting point is 00:33:24 if he was president. And again, they will meet later today, Zelensky and Trump at Trump Tower. So yeah, we'll see what happens as a result of that. And I will look into that for you, Charlamagna. What is the cost of war? I got a Forbes article,
Starting point is 00:33:39 but this is just for comparison. And it says in 20 years since September 11, 2001 2001 this was in 2021 the united states has spent more than 2 trillion on the war in afghanistan that's 300 million dollars per day every day for two decades or 50 000 for each afghan afghanistan's 40 million people that's a lot of money so this they're saying 20 years since september 11 so yeah it would have been 2021 is when these numbers came out in Forbes. And they said in that time, it's been $2 trillion.
Starting point is 00:34:09 That equaled to $300 million per day, every day for two decades. And that's just Afghanistan. That's not even counting. Yeah, that's just what we focused on with Afghanistan. I'll send you this article. We just printing money. Because I didn't fully read through it, but that's the big answer. No, thank you for that, Lauren.

Starting point is 00:35:17 industry-wide, so I'm really proud of that. Now, how did you get into wrestling? Tell us that story. What made you say, you know what, mom, dad, I want to be a wrestler? It was mom yes uh so i went to the military
Starting point is 00:35:28 right after high school like two weeks after i graduated high school my mom literally was my recruiter and she was also uh my sister's recruiter so she got us she both recruited us civilian wise civilian recruiter got us both recruited the same unit and i went three years after my sister went in did my uh two weeks uh two months in basic training did my eight weeks eight months after that so i didn't come home for like another 10 months after this i'm 16 17 years old doing this on my own come back and i was just like you know what like i was working a job i was my first job was at comcast cable i was like installing cable in people's homes. Then I went to like, I got laid off from that job.
Starting point is 00:36:11 Then I went to just packing trucks and UPS at four in the morning. I was like, all right, you know what? If I'm going to be doing this, I'm going to be working hard. I want to do, I'm going to work hard at something
Starting point is 00:36:18 that I'm passionate about. Something that like, I don't think I can do. And pro wrestling was just something I was just passionate about since I was 12. And I was like, he was watching, he was a wrestling fan. Oh yeah, yeah, do. Pro wrestling was just something I was passionate about since I was 12. He was a wrestling fan. It was the video games that really got me hooked.
Starting point is 00:36:30 It was my friends. Smackdown, Shut Your Mouth. That was the one. The roster was crazy. The stories were crazy. This was the athleticism. Ray Mysterio was the one that really got me. Very underrated wrestler, I think Ray Mysterio is.
Starting point is 00:36:43 He's the greatest luchador of all time. I think his impact crosses over so much and so big respect uncle ray he's still a good friend of mine i would say it was just like okay i had the military to fall back on if anything was to happen so i had that let me move down to virginia from pennsylvania let me start my wrestling career i called this promoter dave mcleod told me to come through i moved down sunday i was training on tuesday my mom paid my first month's tuition and then i had a month to get a job to pay for the rest of the way and sure enough that's what that was the rest of my journey so you you come from a military family though right like your parents both of them or uh my my dad my dad uh was served in desert storm damn so what made you want to get into it? Just because your dad did it?
Starting point is 00:37:26 It was something my mom thought was a good foundation to start my life as a man. So you didn't have a choice. Your mom made you. Yeah. You must have been bad, too. Yeah, that's all I'm saying. 16th, 17th, they're shipping you off to the military. 16th, he said.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Yeah, yeah, 16th. Yeah, I graduated at 17. I was like, boom. Two weeks later, I was on a bus. Yeah. But it wasn't bad. It was just like, I'm actually like, man, I want to just go out and do what my friends are doing. I want to like, you know, see the world. I want to like have fun. Let me at least like sleep on the couch for two
Starting point is 00:37:51 weeks. Give me something. But that's what started me to learn how to be a man and to go after things. Not because like, man, Oh, this is something you can kind of put off. No, if you don't do it yourself, it's not getting done. Like, know i gotta learn to shave i gotta learn to do my laundry i gotta learn to buy a plane ticket i gotta learn to do all these things and i did it because i was in a i was put in a position that i didn't have the choice i had to learn it i had to be these i had to put myself in these situations and so when i started my wrestling journey my career i was like comfortable i was like oh what's the worst that could happen oh you know what let me try that let me do that and there's like that fear and that confidence that fear went away my confidence grew and that's like resonated with my work in my
Starting point is 00:38:33 wrestling and you entered in into wwe at first no no that was that came like 10 years later okay so how what was the build like what was the journey up? Independence. So my first year in wrestling, 2008, I started training. August 2008, and my first match was until March of 2009. Within that time, I was training. I had the military, so I had to do my drills from Virginia all the way back up to Pennsylvania. It's a four-hour drive once a month. Had to get a job. Started school, ITT Tech and drafting and design.
Starting point is 00:39:02 So all that was going on. But then later, 2009, my oldest daughter was born. So now I was like, oh, that's like, I'm taking on too much. I'm taking on too much at 18. Something has to go. And so school, had to get rid of school. Found odd jobs here and there. My mom got me a job working at a cemetery.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Like just doing like groundskeeper work, picking up on the grass and all that stuff. That's really what my daughter being born, my oldest and highest. That's really what sparked me. I was like, OK, this has to work now. So what are these wrestling matches happening? Because, you know, when you Google stuff, you see like wrestling matches in Mexico. Yeah, that's the independence. That's the grind.
Starting point is 00:39:38 So that's what you would wrestle. So you just. Yeah, I'll do tours in Mexico. Like I just started doing tours to the UK in 2013. But before that, I would get a connect. that guy would link me to this promoter and then I would just go to the show and just sit and watch the show in hopes of like hopefully I can get booked so I would help stack put the chairs away I would help like hey anything you need I'm here I'm like I live like not that long not
Starting point is 00:39:59 far away I can be back here how do you know who you wrestling cuz usually wrestling is like you we have to know what each other's doing. So now they're just throwing you a ring and you just be like, go? You just figuring it out. You just figure it out? That's part of it. Were you mimicking moves you saw in the video game? All the time.
Starting point is 00:40:14 Okay. When I first got in, I was just doing like, I thought this was cool. I thought like, I used to do this all the time. Hit the button, it would work. So I was like, I translate that. But then when I started training, I was like, really fine. And I like yo that this doesn't this isn't me i shouldn't be doing this then like but getting in the ring you find that stuff out so that's where i was like i need to get in the ring more i need to get in the ring with people i like i don't like i that match me
Starting point is 00:40:39 that don't match me i need to give people a variety of talents and body shapes and all this stuff tags this all that so i just like spread my variety of like knowing who i am and figure out who i am and then like also understand how to get better and how to make myself an asset on any show with any promoter gotcha how'd you get the name swerve big sean man i'm a big big sean fan yeah does he know that hopefully hopefully this gets out there and just be big sean i'm a big fan of yours. I actually talked to Say It Ain't Tone a lot, and he was the one that helped write I Don't F With You and stuff. So I'm like a degree away from Sean.
Starting point is 00:41:14 I never met him. But when Mercy came out, that was hard. And I was looking for a nickname. I was like Shane Strickland at the time. I named myself Shane because I like the rhythm of Shane Strickland that's like a cool but also i had a cat named shane that ran away when i lived in germany but that's another story so but um it was just like i need like a boxing acronym like sugar shane mosley something something something like you know and i was like swerve i was like that's it wow it just felt like it was like a hip-hop crossover and it felt smooth and it felt right salute to Salute to Big Sean. So how different is Stefan Strickland from Swerve Strickland?
Starting point is 00:41:46 I feel like Swerve Strickland is a persona that's just my childlike wonder just put on display. I have a lot of things about myself as a child, watching a lot of cartoons, watching a lot of anime, playing a lot of these video games, listening to music. I listen to watching the movies that I watch. I take all those things, and it's combined to make what swerve is and as the years if you watch me from 2013 2012 i would say is really where it started taking off and then 13 14 15 you saw the swerve persona just mature and grow so that's why i'm really proud about what swerve has become because you saw you've ultimately seen swerve's age of 10 years plus and now you're
Starting point is 00:42:26 a lot of people are just seeing it from like 2022 23 on now but if you go back in my career you've seen swerve the origin of that 2012 all right we got more with swerve strickland when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj nv jess hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club laura rosa filling in for jess we're still kicking it with professional wrestler from the aew square of strickland charlamagne you know i asked mercedes the same question because you know i'm from the era where it was wcw and then wwe was everything so when you see people leave wwe to go to companies like aew to me that's un's unheard of because I thought WWE was the cream of the crop.
Starting point is 00:43:06 So what made you walk away from WWE? It wasn't my choice. It was just like we got fired. Oh, yeah. Okay. But it was like my own. I did something. It was just a political landscape of things.
Starting point is 00:43:19 It was like the pandemic. People coming out of the pandemic. There's a lot of layoffs going up and down offices, talent. Like you're me and you would have a match Wednesday. You fought on Friday. I'm like, what happened?
Starting point is 00:43:32 Like you were literally booked. So you didn't do anything wrong, but it was just like these cutting costs left and right. So a lot of people felt the effects of that. And it was out of our hands. It was out of like a triple H's hands. There's nothing he could do. It was just like,
Starting point is 00:43:44 it was just so high up. Then eventually we got drafted to SmackDown as a group, as Hit Row. And that's where I was, like, with Vince McMahon, finally listening to him now and talking with him. It wasn't very long. I didn't get a lot of time up there. But just that little bit, that little glimpse of that window was enough to, like, change my mindset to make me better.
Starting point is 00:44:03 Is it someplace you would want to go back to? Like, you me build myself up in aew then maybe go to w no i'm happy with building aw i'm happy with building myself in aw aw is giving me something that i don't think w could ever get me and i'm really proud of that and i wave the flag proudly because uh tony khan didn't take a chance on me you know he knew what he wanted from me and he put me in the position and he was like now grow and he put me in the position, and he was like, now grow. And I'm like, okay, what avenues do I have to grow? He's like, whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:44:30 There was no parameters. There was no red tape. And I learned how to just become like a true businessman on top of just a professional wrestler. That's why the mogul persona is truly personified in AEW. It's literally let me be my best self as a man and a professional. So that's what they gave you? They gave you that?
Starting point is 00:44:48 They instilled that entrepreneurial spirit in you? Yes. That's crazy. Your Mercedes answers are basically identical kind of answers. Yeah. It's beautiful. I haven't even listened to her. You bought your mother's childhood home?
Starting point is 00:45:01 Or your childhood home? I did, in a sense. Okay. Break that down. My man Nana here, manager. As soon as we got that contract, we took the bonus money. And we went back to a spot where I grew up on, where we moved back from Germany. And I was a military brat.
Starting point is 00:45:17 And we settled on the place and was like, yo, we got a chance to actually make a bid for it. So we make the bid, actually bought the property. And sure enough, it's still in my name. The property and the land is still in my name. But as you can see, if you watch AW, rival of mine,
Starting point is 00:45:30 we've been going on blood feud for a year now. Hangman Page, I despise this man and he hates me probably more. In real life? You gotta watch the scene. You gotta watch the scene.
Starting point is 00:45:40 You gotta watch the show. Wait, continue. What do you do to the house? Yeah, because I was... Oh, y'all in? Yeah. Y'all invested? Yeah. So went to the contract signing Yeah, because I was listening. Oh, y'all in? Yeah. Y'all invested? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:45 So went to the contract signing on TV, on Dynamite. He doesn't show up. Pops up on the screen. You see that Hangman is actually at the house that I purchased. And it's like, hasn't been remodeled or anything yet. This man walks in pouring gasoline all over the place. And I can't do anything. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:46:02 Like, he's there. I'm here. Don't know if it's a live feed. Don't know if it happened already. We don't know if it's pre-taped or nothing goes in sits down on a couch on like and it's an old couch i remember this couch when i was little it was an old couch he sat back he sat down on on the out on the front lawn lights a match and the match runs all the way around and goes in the house and burns down right in front of me on live tv did y'all plan that i couldn't plan that why is he in jail for arson?
Starting point is 00:46:26 I'm asking the same thing. You gotta turn to Snitch Scrippling. I'm asking the same thing. You gotta tell him. You gotta tell him. It's on live TV. You're right. This is a big match.
Starting point is 00:46:41 Now you gotta beat his ass now. How's your family feel? yeah I have yet to talk to my mom about that you know I should call her when did this air? like maybe two three weeks ago maybe longer
Starting point is 00:46:51 maybe longer than three weeks ago my mom would have been calling me so have you seen him in the street? any of these do you have to fight in the ring? do you see him in the street and just punch him in the face? so the next time I saw him
Starting point is 00:47:00 since after that we had all out the pay-per-view in Chicago you had the cage match the cage match that was the last time I saw him and 10 000 people sold out matter of fact that was like maybe what four days between then we were at six to seven thousand tickets sold that aired we went to 10 000 sold out boom we main event an unsanctioned match unsanctioned means aw wipes their wipes their hands cleans of anything that happens in this match oh y'all can kill each other we can do whatever we want and then is there's no lawsuits
Starting point is 00:47:29 so we take we have to take it a little bit above you know the ramifications of what just a regular street fighter hardcore a regular cage match usually is so have the cage match he's i bring out the cinder block i drop him his head on a solid cinder block bow he power bombs my back on the cinder block solid i still have sciatic nerve damage on my back from this um then he takes he pulls out a from his jacket coat a syringe a hypodermic hypoderm needle and he takes it and pokes it right through my cheek stabs me and it goes all the way through what the soap opera is this is that why you've been in my head you still getting yourself together i'm still trying to figure this myself
Starting point is 00:48:08 i'm not medically cleared still what was in the syringe i don't know i didn't put it in there you didn't check how could i check it came out of his job how the hell you could check the syringe and then he takes a holding metal chair basheshes over my head, goes right through. I am knocked out. So he won? He won. Did he? He won. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:48:27 He won by knockout. But to this day, that man has yet to actually pin me or make me submit. So he's never beat me yet. So during that, where your people at? They ain't jumping in the ring to help you? It's a cage. They're locked out.
Starting point is 00:48:39 So you're still not medically cleared? I'm not medically cleared. So what's the point in doing all of that? Because then you can't fight right now. It's passion. Was the money that good for that cage fight? You got to put it to his crib, man. Like I said, I already signed my contract extension.
Starting point is 00:48:54 I'm set. But I still want to do these matches because I'm passionate about this business. I'm passionate about my company. She asked you if the money was good. Something was said about you that I've never heard. They said people in the WWE felt your contract was above market price.
Starting point is 00:49:10 I've never heard anybody complain that somebody got too much money. They only complain when a black person gets paid. I will say that. When it gets paid. And that's what once again, we shake the foundation of things like that because it's like, oh snap, wait, it's not what we would pay. Then why are you calling me? Why are you asking me?
Starting point is 00:49:25 If I'm not your concern, don't worry about it. Yeah. Don't worry about my pockets and our money. We good. You have your talent. You made your decision with me two years ago. No hard feelings for me.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Boom. I keep it moving. I'm going to figure my way out and I'm going to build myself up. Is it true they tried to resign you? Yeah. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Well, it wasn't like the words resign. They asked about my availability you know so that was like came up but they never contacted me they contacted my representation and um i'm at a stage now which i enjoyed the fact that i don't have that direct contact when when you are progressing and getting higher and you like in rooms with guys like like people like you and stuff you got to kind of keep a little bit of a space in between these type of conversations because it's like you can check my phone it's never been there like i never had direct contact it's always i want to keep that little space but it has been it has been uh communication has been reached out now i've seen the reaction i met you in the
Starting point is 00:50:18 airport and like just stopping to have a conversation people was walking by you know what i mean yeah yeah so people you definitely having an impact uh in new york is bigger than i thought we just me and my man flash garments we just did sneaker con in coney island like two days ago and um there's like big names walking around you know queens flip walking around you got like you know a lot of like stephane marbury's walking around there but i'm getting a lot of shout outs i'm like like yo i watch it all the time like we're like they're like oh man like oh my god i just watched the paper are you okay are you like checking on me i'm like there's a lot of people and it's like wow this is like growing
Starting point is 00:50:53 bigger than i ever expected like the impact and so it's like how can you with that kind of stuff it's like you can't see that kind of interaction on social media and Twitter interactions and comments are never going to show you the impact of actual person in like giving you that type of love. And I appreciate that. That's like that's my market value right there. That explains it to me because it's like these people aren't commenting, telling you all this stuff. These people are here with you in person. These people are going to show up wherever you go. People are going to buy your product and wear it with pride
Starting point is 00:51:25 and show like, yo, this is my guy. I'm rooting for him. No matter what he does, I'm going to be there. All right, well, keep it locked. We got more with Swerve Strickland when we come back.
Starting point is 00:51:32 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Swerve Strickland, a wrestler from the AEW. Charlamagne?
Starting point is 00:51:40 What do you want more? You want to get back on Hangman more or getting your title back? That's a good question. Maybe one day it might be one and the same. Because Hangman's on a streak right now. He's on a war path. In a lot of ways, him pressing me has made him better.
Starting point is 00:51:56 And I brought out something great in him that eventually, with my absence, he probably will be a world champion again. So maybe at that time, I'll get both. I get my get back and the world championship at the same time but that's the effect of what swerve brings to this roster of all e-wrestling i make your guy better and in turn he makes me better so it's almost like we're slinking each other like he pulls me up to the main event and i become this main event i make history uh first black aw world champion first black world champion in main event Wembley Stadium ever in history of that building and then boom cage match
Starting point is 00:52:29 I can't do nothing with him he takes me out my body's wrecked he becomes better I bring him back to the main event scene we're killing each other but at the same time
Starting point is 00:52:37 we're bettering each other at the same time in the product and you do music too right? yes sir you rap? yeah okay okay
Starting point is 00:52:44 I got three albums out with my group members I'm in the product. And you do music too, right? Yes, sir. You rap? Yeah. Okay, okay. I got three albums out with my group members, Swerve and Swerve City Monteezy. He's been signed with Rough Rider back in the day when he was like 17 years old, and he taught me everything I know about rap. And then me and my man Flash Garments, like last month, put out a project, Motion Sickness. And he's taken me to another level
Starting point is 00:53:04 because he's been on the writing team with Kanye West on on the donda album you know we went to the grammys together uh two years ago and watched our producer profit win uh two grammys for the songs that he put out so i'm in a great team and window with these guys you know so i'm learning at the later stage of my life but i'm learning the right way rather than trying to go 10 years of doing it wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. Yeah, we're doing great stuff with music right now. We're going to continue to do more. I have songs with Benny the Butcher.
Starting point is 00:53:31 Westside Gun's been on our records. Westside's a big wrestling fan. Big, big. I don't know him personally, but I just know that he's a big wrestling fan. Hilarious dude, fun dude. Bun B is a mentor of mine, becoming a mentor of Who Kids,
Starting point is 00:53:44 hosting our records. Bun, at Westside, it walked you out or something? Yeah, yeah. At Wembley. Wembley Stadium. Yeah. We're doing a lot of great stuff, man. How'd you connect with them?
Starting point is 00:53:53 Just through the wrestling? My man Albert Gentile, he's honestly the one that really personified the mogul character, the persona of what Swerve is. When I first came out, they really started getting motion, the tag team champion and he uh brought kevin gates and we had kevin gates do something on the show fabulous came out with us on grand slam uh two years ago um in new york recently had jim jones uh do my intro man you name it like flash brought floyd mayweather to sit front row in vegas when i did my world title match how important is it to merge culture with wrestling it's it's really big because um people don't know what it is what wrestling truly is until
Starting point is 00:54:32 I would say support it you gotta like something whatever it is you gotta see what you like and then it becomes then you start supporting it but you don't know what you like if you don't watch it and something has to attract you to like it and so doing all these things like oh that's a familiar face if he's there let me peek at it let me just check it out and if you check it out you're like oh you know what i do like this you know when when's the show come on when the next time they in town i got the kids i got my girlfriend i got this like i got my friends you just you got to pique that interest a little bit just just enough to get people to like something then the when they like it enough and they want to see it again then it becomes an investment investment becomes like a group the group becomes a community then the community becomes a fandom and that's slowly but surely how
Starting point is 00:55:14 like you kind of grow a product and you and it may take two weeks may take five months may take three years but my philosophy my personal trainer now out to him. He tells me like when we started training a year and a half ago, I was like 193. Now I got up to 220. He got me to 215, 215 pounds in three months. He said 1% a day is 365% a year. So just move 1% a day. In a year, you're going to triple your investment. But you got to just move one bit.
Starting point is 00:55:44 That's my philosophy with everything I do. Music, just get one new fan. Just get one new stream. Wrestling, just get one new fan. Just get one guy to buy one shirt. Move something forward every single day. You drop at Sneakers now, right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:55:57 Yeah, we actually have. That's why you were at Sneaker Con? Yeah. Okay, so with the—oh, you have them. That's about the big pressures right here. That's my logo. So is this too just a part of
Starting point is 00:56:05 you know understanding that like even fashion as culture connects absolutely okay it's fine
Starting point is 00:56:10 yeah and that's what it's about like it's still light very these are the shoes I literally won the world championship in they kind of look like
Starting point is 00:56:17 Jordans is that right but I'm the first wrestler to have his own brand shoe wow okay yeah
Starting point is 00:56:22 dope how much are they for people that want to buy them and how can they buy them if they want we're gonna be it's gonna be 250 and we're gonna be bringing them out um slowly one by one like by a link and when we're gonna drop that link very very soon so be ready and um when that when the link drops as soon as you click on make the order it's coming to you swerve stripling ladies and gentlemen that's right we appreciate you this morning that's where confident on all social media platforms, man. Myself, Flash, Garments.
Starting point is 00:56:46 We got the Motion Signals album out that has the Big Pressure Trill remix with Bun B and Westside Gun on there. With Who Kid hosting the entire album. Let's play it. Play it, please. For the love of God. Play that. Well, it's Swerve Strickland. It's the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:57:00 Good morning. All right. Well, let's get to Jess with the mess with Lauren La Rosa. News is real, brother. This is real. Lauren's Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lies. Don't do no lies.
Starting point is 00:57:08 She don't spell nobody. Worldwide Jess. Worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. She's a culture show. With Lauren, Lauren LaRosa. I'm back. And I got the mess.
Starting point is 00:57:22 Talk to me. See, I remember how Diddy's attorney, Mark Agnefilio, said that in the TMZ documentary and outside of MDC Brooklyn, that Diddy's 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant and bulk or whatever was just probably because he shops at like Costco or something like that. Very casually said that. Yep. Well, Costco has released a statement. They spoke to someone at TMZ and a spokesperson for Costco says none of the company's U.S. locations
Starting point is 00:57:52 carry baby oil. Even though Diddy's attorney, you know, mentioned Costco and mentioned that he probably wasn't in bulk. Costco says we have nothing to do with the lubrication of booty holes anywhere in America.
Starting point is 00:58:03 Who all over there because we ain't coming. Oh, that was. Wow. Man, I didn't think about that. And we're not helping nobody come either. But it could be. Maybe he didn't think of Costco.
Starting point is 00:58:15 It could have been BJ's. I think he was just casually speaking. But the fact that he said Costco's multiple times, I instantly thought, like, I wonder if Costco is going to feel a way about this. And then they reached out to figure out. Does BJ's have baby oil? Who else does a lot of that stuff? It's only a couple places you buy in bulk. Sam's Club. Sam's Club. That's the other one.
Starting point is 00:58:34 I don't know nothing about no BJ's. That's Envy. He from the 90's. He grew up in the 90's in New York so he know all about BJ's. There isn't BJ's that carries bulk. Mad BJ's in bulk in the 90's in New York. Right Envy? I'm looking up baby oil right now. Does BJ's and bulk in the 90s in New York right envy they have pink lotion that's mixed with coconut oil that vegetable oil oil that's not like what you need for your hair you've been trying to be so smart you ain't got
Starting point is 00:59:00 no hair you don't lay edges with oil oh okay okay you do put oil on your edges but you don't lay it with them so stop minding my business okay no i don't see baby i'll be quiet i don't see baby oil on bj's website either i do see a lotion that mix that is mixed with coconut oil though um so anyway in costco's there's nothing on our website either i did check after i saw the story and uh they do have however and in the story this is listed they do carry like different health hair products and cleansing gels that are sold for babies but nothing that is actual baby oil um now in other Diddy news there is a sex worker that provided a tape um reportedly to federal prosecutors now no listen this actually might help Diddy's case versus hurt it
Starting point is 00:59:47 because, you know, his attorney has been saying for a while now, like these like freak offs were just like not, there was no malice intended in any of this stuff. The people that were involved
Starting point is 00:59:57 were consenting adults and this is their bedroom. Why are we in their bedroom is what the attorney was saying, right? So there's a sex worker who met with the feds on Wednesday in New York. He signed a pro-fur agreement, which allows him to speak to the investigators without prosecution, without fair prosecution.
Starting point is 01:00:12 Now, the convo was about how did he got in touch with an escort in order to book this escort to have a freak off with Diddy and another woman. They don't mention who the woman was. And he also talks to the feds about what drugs did he like to take during these uh freak offs they said that the threesome went down back in may of 2023 um the sex worker said that he flew from atlanta to miami met up with diddy and the woman um they ended up he ended up having sex with the woman while did he film the encounter and just to restate the charges you know diddy has been charged with sex trafficking, racketeering, conspiracy,
Starting point is 01:00:46 and transportation to engage in prostitution. You would have to prove that the people involved in that conversation, because the sex worker didn't say anything about being forced to do anything
Starting point is 01:00:54 or anything like that or the woman that he knew of being forced. Didn't the sex worker hand over tapes or something like that? He did hand over tapes, but I'm saying,
Starting point is 01:01:00 you could hand over tapes and still say, I didn't want to be there, I didn't want to drug, you know what I mean? So we don't know, there's no reports of that being said and and the sex worker said nothing about the woman mentioning that she was forced to do anything or whatever so that could be lauren you bring up a good point you said uh you said it may help his criminal case but
Starting point is 01:01:18 when it comes to culture in these jokes depending what he's doing with this male escort d is never beating the allegations of tampering with men's buttholes if any buttholes are being tampered with on this tape well according to this escort as i was mentioning diddy recorded the encounter so i don't know i mean you got two hands and if you're using a phone you only need one but the escort didn't mention anything about diddy being involved. This is a tripod, Lauren. Lauren, you can set up a tripod. You can put the phone anywhere.
Starting point is 01:01:48 Having a tripod is crazy. If you're doing it right, you're using no hands. Ordering tripods and setups for your free car. But you can put it on the counter. Well, they did say that Diddy's, they alleged in the indictment that Diddy's people used to have to go and set up for these things in the hotel room. So maybe there are tripods.
Starting point is 01:02:04 I don't know, y'all.all listen don't get me to lying about somebody butthole i don't know i have no idea but there was a videotape provided to the fed so we'll have to wait to see how this you know tape that they're alleging exists now one last question oh god is is is baby oil a lubricant is like baby oil a lubricant that they use for buttholes? Oh, now you don't know. I don't. I don't know. Do you know?
Starting point is 01:02:29 You're acting like you don't know. You came up in New York in the 90s. You know how to slip and slide. I have no idea. I'm just asking. I just never heard of that. I know people that just use lubricant. I know people that use poppers.
Starting point is 01:02:41 What's a popper? You don't know what a popper is? No. It's a thing in the um never mind i don't want to talk later yeah sounds like a human resource the guys girls that get it are gonna get it um so y'all are so annoying certain stories oh my god when i'm preparing certain stories i'm like man the way that they are to cackle and kiki is going to... I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:03:08 Take it serious. Take it serious. Go ahead. Carl Winslow. Tell me more, Lauren. What are you cooking this morning now? Tell me more. Carl Winslow. Go! Okay, let's go. Reginald Val Johnson, who plays Carl Winslow in Family Matters. He actually spoke on, you know people were trying to say
Starting point is 01:03:27 that he was getting it popping with Diddy, allegedly, right? You don't have the clip? I do have the clip. That clip is amazing. Can we play the clip? We gotta be quick.
Starting point is 01:03:34 Hey, Mr. Val Johnson, how you doing, sir? How you doing? Hey, do you have any response to this bizarre story that's circulating about you and Diddy? Some guy named
Starting point is 01:03:42 Loose Cannon told this story about you and all that. I don't Luce Cannon told this story about you and... I don't know that man. I haven't met him before. I wish him well, though. What's your message to those who are talking about it and actually think... What's your message to them? Luce Cannon. Get a life.
Starting point is 01:03:55 Oh, that's not the clip I was talking about. I was talking about Luce Cannon. That's the clip I wanted to see. We got that. We got it. When Diddy f***ed Carl Winslow, we was at the party and you know,
Starting point is 01:04:06 we just chilling and s*** like that. I hear that s*** just wearing out some s***. I'm like, huh? Like hearing that, I'm like, who's wearing this b***h out?
Starting point is 01:04:15 Kicking the door, poof. That s*** scene, I looked, I seen Carl Winslow putting his head up. Ain't that the father from Family Matters?
Starting point is 01:04:23 Yes. No way. The dad. The dad. The dad. I swear to God, dad homies. Neighborhood crib. So when I seen that, I seen that. Man.
Starting point is 01:04:32 So who was **** Carl? Diddy? Yeah, Diddy was. When I seen that cuz, right? Diddy came back and he was telling me, he was like, it's nothing more enjoyable than having a man do something for some money. Allegedly, allegedly, allegedly,
Starting point is 01:04:45 all of this is alleged in Carl Winslow, Reginald Vell Johnson saying it did not happen. Go, Charlotte. Yeah, I don't know if the story is true. I just think it's hilarious.
Starting point is 01:04:53 It is funny. I mean, it's just, that literally sounds like something Dave Chappelle would have did in a sketch. It's just hilarious. That's something
Starting point is 01:05:00 you would have saw in Living Color back in the day. It just sounds funny. It just sounds funny. It doesn't seem like... Have y'all got y'all laughs out? Because we're wrapping it up. it doesn't seem like it sounds funny yeah it just sounds fun it doesn't seem like have y'all got your laughs out because we're wrapping it up that don't seem like if no i've been laughing at that clip for months i laugh every time i hear that clip the first time somebody sent me that clip i died laughing and i get the exact same feeling every single time i watch it and people will send it to me
Starting point is 01:05:20 like i've never seen it before and i watch it every single time and laugh you're the problem sir i know i just this humor is humor okay i wonder if the feds laugh when they get any of me like I've never seen it before and I watch it every single time and laugh. You're the problem, sir. No, I just, humor is humor. I wonder if the feds laugh when they get any of this stuff. Of course. They have to. I shouldn't ask y'all another question. We gotta wrap it up, y'all. That is my dream. I want to sit with law enforcement and sit with FBI
Starting point is 01:05:39 officials when they are getting some of this stuff. I know they be dying laughing. I know they do. Now, can you imagine the stuff that they don't put out though that they see my goodness can you imagine the leads they go on they don't even go down rabbit holes no more they just go down youtube buttholes well charlamagne who you giving your oily ass to your donkey to man first of all why would you very very chafed cheeks back here okay right dry desert storm okay should i continue no no Why would you refer to what? Very, very chafed cheeks back here. Okay. Right. Dry.
Starting point is 01:06:06 Desert storm. Okay. Should I continue? No, no. Don't want to know anymore about this Friday. Bring it, bring it, bring it Friday. Listen, we need Justin Johnson to come to the front of the congregation. We would like to have a word with him.
Starting point is 01:06:19 Okay. Teachable moment this morning, even though it's a lesson that I hate that we got to continue to teach because it seems like nobody's learning it, but we'll discuss. All right. We'll get to that next it's the breakfast club good morning you're checking out the breakfast club your execution on the donkey of the day is something to behold we're gonna read you gave me donkey of the day and i deserve it people need to know what you need to tell them i am you have the voice tell. It's time for Donkey of the Day. It's a read, but you're so good at it. You're trying to be a fake-ass Charlemagne.
Starting point is 01:06:49 You only want Charlemagne to go. Damn, Charlemagne. Who you giving Donkey of the Day to now? Well, Sexy Red, Donkey of the Day for Friday, September 27th goes to Justin Johnson. If you don't know who Justin Johnson is, he's the young man who was found guilty of the murder of the good brother, Young Dolph. Drop on the clues bombs for Young Dolph. Peace, Young Dolph. Okay.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Sending healing energy to his family always. A jury made up of nine white women, two black men, and one white man found Johnson guilty of first-degree murder, guilty of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, and guilty of being a convicted felon in possession of a handgun. The jury deliberated for four hours before they convicted him, and I can't believe it took that long. Okay, they must have been there talking about why Diddy had 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant. All the food they had in there must have been phenomenal,
Starting point is 01:07:37 and they got to talking and eating because there's no way it took them four hours to convict this man. But let's go to News Channel 3 for the report, please. We ask you to remember the man who enjoyed being a father and spending time with his family carlisa brown young dolph's sister applauding the verdict while facing the realization so never see her brother again i can't say that we're happy we're overjoyed anything like that but it's the start of process being served for someone who we lost that was some of everything to some of everyone. The jury deliberating for four hours this afternoon, finding Justin Johnson guilty on all charges in the murder of the Memphis rapper.
Starting point is 01:08:14 A decision coming nearly three years after Dolph was gunned down at a cookie shop. As a 13th juror, I affirm this verdict. As to the first degree murder, I sentence you to life in prison. It's got to be bittersweet, right? Because, you know, on one hand, you're glad justice is being served and these guys are getting life in prison. But yes, young Dolph is never coming back. So it's got to be bittersweet. Now, Justin Johnson and his co-defendant, the admitted gunman, Cornelius Smith, fired shots into Makita's homemade butter cookies on Airways Boulevard. During the trial, Cornelius testified that he and Justin Johnson carried out what was supposed to be a $100,000 hit on Young Dolph.
Starting point is 01:08:54 Both gunmen were supposed to receive $40,000 each for the murder. And then where was the other $10,000 going, Lauren? There was $20,000 going to the guy's name. Was it $20,000 or $10 the guy's name 20 or 10 it's 20 but it's 10 10 so 10 from justin 10 from cornelius was going to the guy that set it up okay uh but that didn't happen according to cornelius smith they only ended up with 800 dollars let's go to fox 26 houston for the details please the trial the shooting death of rapper Young Dolph in Memphis began with a major bombshell Monday. Cornelia Smith confessed in court admitting to shooting the rapper, whose real name was Adolph Thornton Jr., outside a Memphis cooking shop in November 2021. Smith says he and Justin Johnson were promised $40,000 each to complete the job by Dolph rival Big Jook.
Starting point is 01:09:47 He says he only got a fraction of that payout, only $800 out of the $40,000 promise. $800. You know, Cornelius Smith admitted his role in killing Dolph and said he felt no emotions over it at the time because he was addicted to drugs and was looking forward to collecting his $40,000 payday, which, of course, he never got. And prosecutors argued that the plan was for Justin Johnson to secure a record deal for the murder. Think about what we're talking about here. Two black men going to prison forever for killing another black man for not a damn thing.
Starting point is 01:10:23 Yes, I said for not a damn thing because they didn't have no personal beef with Dolph. Dolph didn't do anything to them. They were just hitting him for hire. This was all business to them. And they were willing to crash out and not only throw their life away for some money and a potential record deal, but they were also willing to take a life
Starting point is 01:10:38 for some money and a potential record deal. This is why people have to learn to love themselves. Your first, last, and best love is self-love. And if you don't have self-love, it is impossible for you to love someone else. How could you see the value in another person's life if you don't see no value in your own? And I know someone out there is probably thinking, Uncle Charlotte, what you mean? Dolph got killed for nothing. $40,000 in a record deal is something.
Starting point is 01:11:00 Let me be the first to tell you, if that's your mindset, call in the Breakfast Club right now. Give me your name and address so I can tell law enforcement where you're at so they can come pick you up, okay? They need to come pick you up right now. No amount of money, no record deal is worth you throwing your life away and taking a life, okay? That's what Justin Johnson got sentenced to, life forever, endlessly, All right, Justin Johnson, you are never coming home. Do people not understand what that means? When someone says you get in life, that means it's over. Whatever hopes and dreams, whatever creature comforts you had in the outside world. If you like women, it's over done for Nito. And for what, as I just said, absolutely nothing. Look, I know times is hard out here, but there's no amount of money worth my freedom, not to mention.
Starting point is 01:11:47 And I know some of y'all like these brothers, you know, are probably saying yourself, well, you know, I ain't got nothing to live for. They had nothing to live for. Well, let me ask you a question. Isn't just living enough. Why do we take for granted the blessing called life? Somebody woke up dead this morning and they didn't want to die because they had plans today. So why don't we value just being alive? Goes back to what I just said about self-love. If you simply valued being alive, if you simply valued your life, if you simply value just taking a breath, being able to breathe, then you would value the lives of others. And nobody could offer you some money or a record deal in exchange for taking the life of someone else now i was looking at shade room and i saw a post from the account of justin johnson
Starting point is 01:12:31 i'm assuming i'm assuming this is a real account right lauren that's what it was being reported as i didn't report it because i thought it was this i didn't go ahead well it says these n words taking criminal responsibility i'm taking street responsibility. I'm taking street responsibility. Regardless, I'm forever the biggest. They can throw away the keys before I ever eat the cheese. That's so stupid. Now, I don't speak fluent nigga like I used to. But I understand the last part, okay? He's saying they can lock him away forever before he ever tells, all right?
Starting point is 01:13:01 I don't know what he means when he says they taking criminal responsibility. I'm taking street responsibility. That sounds like one of those dumbass street codes and I hate stupid-ass street codes. You know how in video games we would enter a code and it would take us to another level or give us more lives? Well, street codes are the opposite of video game
Starting point is 01:13:18 codes. They don't take you to any higher levels and you only get one man in this game called life anyway, so the street code would be like up, up, down, down, left, right, select, start. Dumb Negro, you're going to prison forever or probably going to die. And guess what? You earned it. Okay?
Starting point is 01:13:30 Your Uncle Charlotte tells you all the time, life is about choices. The decisions we make shape our lives. Destiny is not a matter of chance. It's a matter of choice. Guys like Justin Johnson and Cornelius Smith chose the direction of their lives simply by making a bad choice. And it saddens me that we live in an era with so much information, access to so many resources. We have numerous examples of where certain choices lead us. And yet we have brothers like Justin Johnson and Cornelius Smith who are still choosing to do the wrong thing.
Starting point is 01:14:00 And for absolutely nothing. Please let Remy Ma give Justin Johnson the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. And it feels like these should be teachable moments. But I don't know if people are actually learning. Because we always find ourselves right back here.
Starting point is 01:14:21 That's right. I just don't understand why I post this statement. If you're going to stand on that and you want to take your time, take it. Be quiet and take it. But why post that? There's people hurting behind that. And I'm going to tell you something else. Salute to my man, Shaka Sinkor, man.
Starting point is 01:14:33 Shaka Sinkor is a good friend of mine, great brother. He posted under the post that the young man posted. He said, as someone who served 19 19 years i can say those sentiments will vanish within a couple of days reality will set in and he is going to be in for a sad awakening i have never and i mean never met someone in prison who was happy to be there i have never met someone who killed someone that doesn't wish they could take that 30 seconds back if you are living that street life i hope you take this moment to realize how you are being used when that prison number is handed out it won't be given to your mommy, your homies, or whoever you thought was riding with you.
Starting point is 01:15:08 Once that door slams shut, it's all on you from there. Shaka Sinkhole, you ain't never lie, my brother. Never lie. And you can, yes, salute to Shaka, man. That's my guy. He'll be at the 4th Annual Mental Wealth Expo, October 12th, at the Marriott Marquee in Times Square. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today.
Starting point is 01:15:29 Mm-hmm. All right. Woosah, woosah, woosah. All right. Now, let's open up the phone lines. It's Friday, so you know what that means. It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. All right.
Starting point is 01:15:40 This show moves fast, y'all. It does move fast. It does move fast. It just moves fast. Yes, it does. Now, this conversation is coming from Cardi B the other day now Cardi B She was spazzing out on Instagram live and this is one of the things that she said I make you look good You look at the bitch. I'm fucking you I don't care
Starting point is 01:16:00 But effect oh look at this I don't want to see it so what you was gonna Anyway, oh you got to get drunk. No bitches gonna to see it. So what? You was going to f*** them anyway. All you got to do is get f***ing drunk. Them bitches going to throw you that p***y for $2,000. Bitches got to survive out here. Oh, now I'm going to f*** them bitches. You was going to do it regardless. You go to a club and you probably get drunk. You give them bitches $2,000 and you was going to f*** them regardless.
Starting point is 01:16:16 So that is it, right? The first thing I thought when I heard that was I was like, damn, $2,000? That's a lot of money. Like $2,000? That's how much the price of Pum Pum is is but then i had to take a step back because i'm grown right i'm 46 years old um i i i don't have a problem with you know women getting anything for for sex what he's saying that no no let me explain lauren i don't i don't have a problem i'm not i don't have a problem with women with women getting anything for sex because you know that would be a prostitute
Starting point is 01:16:51 right that doesn't make you a prostitute sometimes it's the stage of you asking i should be receiving because it's not it's not tricking if she's worth it and the reality is you know we we take women out on dates you know we buy women things. We take them on trips. You're spending regardless. The problem I have is like, you'll listen to some of these podcasts sometime and these guys will be like, what are women bringing to the table? The reality is
Starting point is 01:17:15 the woman is the table. You're doing all of these things for the woman. You're getting a haircut for the woman. You're wearing nice clothes for the woman. You want to drive nice cars for the woman. You want to be successful for the woman. You know, you want to acquire lav for the woman you want to drive nice cars for the woman you want to be successful for the woman you know you you want to acquire lavish things because you want to attract women so are you saying that speaking if a woman a woman gives up her vagina a man should pay for it i'm saying that is the least a man can do because the reality of the situation is think what women got to go through right number? Number one, you're letting this man
Starting point is 01:17:46 get on top of you. You're letting this man get inside of you. You're letting this man sweat on you and think about Envy, you know about this. Think about having, think about fellatio. Why does Envy have to think about this? Think about that member
Starting point is 01:18:01 in between some jaws. I'm trying to say this in a nice way because we on the radio. All I'm saying is women give up a lot. What are you asking, sir? I bet you see that wrap up fingernail, huh, Envy? I don't see no finger. What is the question you're asking? I would like to hear what people think about this. You know what I'm saying? I don't think it's a
Starting point is 01:18:20 problem with it being an exchange. That if a woman has sex with a man, a man should be giving up something financially. Yes, because think about what the woman
Starting point is 01:18:28 is giving up. The woman is giving you her, she's giving you her body. She's giving you access to her and her energy. Lauren, am I tripping? You're not,
Starting point is 01:18:35 but I want y'all to have it because when a woman, when we say that, we prostitutes, we city girls, whatever, but I think I'd love to hear a man say.
Starting point is 01:18:43 to be more? If you give up the vagina, I gotta pay for it? It's not about that. It's about, we gonna get into it. Let's talk about it when we come back and. I love to hear about Manson. So there's no love anymore? Just if you give up the vagina, I got to pay for it? It's not about that. It's about... We're going to get into it. Let's talk about it when we come back. And I would love to hear Lauren's side when we come back. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 01:18:54 Let's discuss when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Law and La Rosa filling in for Jess.
Starting point is 01:19:08 Now, if you're just joining us, we were talking about something that Cardi B said about women getting $2,000 for giving up their poom poom. Let's play the clip. I make you look good. F*** you. Look at the bitch. I'm f***ing. F*** you. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:19:24 I'm going to f*** all your ups. Matter of fact, oh, look at this. I don't want to see itk you i don't care i'm gonna f**k who you are matter of fact oh look at this i don't want to see it so what you was gonna f**k them anyways all you gotta do is get f**king drunk them bitches gonna throw you that for five for two thousand bitches gotta survive out here oh oh now i'm gonna f**k them bitches you was gonna do it regardless you go to a club and you you probably get drunk you give them bitches two thousand you was gonna f**king regardless all right so we're asking 800-585-1051 what are your thoughts lauren what are your thoughts ma'am i don't think that there's anything wrong with it and i think when when women say it or when it's talked about i think people instantly
Starting point is 01:19:52 make it like such a cold and like like fast exchange of like okay i'm having sex with you you need to do this you need to do that and it's like what i think the mature conversation around it is is the same way that like you know when you you and your wife right like your wife creates a home for you she creates a sense of peace and in order for you to do what you do every day outside of that house you need that women need support in certain ways and sometimes it's financially and i think if you're really if you really are caring for somebody or courting for somebody you're going to spend money in different ways and it shouldn't be like i'm not doing this like if you go on a date if you've never given a woman actual money like a cash app or nothing you're going to date
Starting point is 01:20:28 you're spending two to three hundred dollars if you're talking about a date and you're courting somebody yes but not just giving money after sex like here's two thousand dollars on the side of the table here's a bag on it i feel like the conversation instantly gets there and even if you choose to do that that's the type of trick that you want to be do that but some men it's a way different it's different of how they do it it might be dates it might be flowers it might be gifts it might be hey babe i just paid your rent because i heard you complaining about you didn't even have to ask or everybody's different but it shouldn't be an issue that is being done it should be men's penis isn't worth something too though and y'all want cooking cleaning y'all want peace
Starting point is 01:21:00 in the home not when we just met when we just met. When we just met, we couldn't show up. Like, a man's penis, black penis is matter too. Man, shut your bitch ass up, Envy. And y'all stick it everywhere. You know that it matters too. Man's penis matters too. Listen, I'm not telling women to be prostitutes. I'm not telling women to sell their bodies. I'm simply saying if you like a guy,
Starting point is 01:21:19 if you and a guy are choosing to engage in sexual activities, the least this man can do is do something for you. I don't care if that something is $2,000. I don't care if that something is paying a bill. I don't care if that something is taking care of some rent. You're paying for some nails, taking care of somebody's braids that are way past due. For all that a woman has to give up, for all that a woman has to give up as far as her body, that's the least a man can do. And we're actually talking about material things versus something that's priceless.
Starting point is 01:21:50 So if you've given it up to this man, you letting this man inside your body, you got this man's of you giving this man fellatio. The least that man can do is do something for you. I don't have a problem with that. I disagree. I think there's a thing called love, and I think there's a thing where you guys should have a connection. This shouldn't be transactional. Did you hear anything I just said?
Starting point is 01:22:09 I did, but you're making it seem like if this guy, if this girl does this, you should give them something. It doesn't have to be the first day, first night. It could build there, but you should be open to it. Because y'all making it sound like it's transactional. Why do we have to say that? Some stuff is common sense. But why are we acting like it's not transactional?
Starting point is 01:22:25 Once again, if you and a guy are choosing to engage in sexual activities, the least a man can do is do something for you. You know how you know it's transactional? What you getting a haircut for? What you pulling up in a nice car for? Why you put on this fresh ass outfit? You did all of this because you hope she sees you and she goes, wow, he look fly.
Starting point is 01:22:43 So in exchange, I'm going to give him some. Cut it out, guys. And then I got to give $2,000? That sounds crazy. I didn't say $2,000. I said it could be $2,000. It could be paying a bill. It could be taking care of some rent. Just do something for her. Men compartmentalize. You know what girls you even willing to do that for. So you just, I mean,
Starting point is 01:23:00 up front with it. If she know that that's not the situation, she still chooses to continue. That's her choice. That sounds crazy. So to answer your question, do you want your daughter to be with a bum-ass dude? I want my daughter to find somebody that loves her. I don't want my daughter to say, I'm going to give up a vagina and then somebody got to pay for that vagina. If your daughter had to 100% take care of the man. I want somebody that's going to love my daughter. Yes, but with love comes bills and responsibilities, right or wrong?
Starting point is 01:23:20 My daughter's good. Okay. She can pay her own bills. If you were paying for them bills and that man was living in that house, you wouldn't feel it. And you would pull up. She can pay her own bills. If you were paying for them bills and that man was living in that house, you wouldn't feel it. You would pull up. She could pay her own bills. But my daughter, it's not transaction. I want her to find somebody that loves her.
Starting point is 01:23:32 Take the money out of it. Me and my wife, we didn't have no money growing up. I'm sure Charlamagne and his wife didn't have no money growing up. It wasn't about money. It was about that love. You keep talking about the money. You keep talking about the money. No, he keeps talking about the money.
Starting point is 01:23:45 But once again, we're talking about material things versus something that's priceless. If this woman is giving up all of her body to you, a man should be doing something for her. If you ain't got no money, go cut some goddamn grass. If you ain't got no money, take some trash out. Do something for the lady. Go wash her car. Like, if the woman is giving you all of this, you should do something for her. That's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:24:05 Hello, who's this? Lameja? Hello. Hey, what's your name, mama? Oh, yes, this is Lameja. Hey, what's your thoughts? I think it should be equal. It should be equal. Like, he's giving up his body, too. And that's what I'm saying. It should be equal. Okay, Lameja, thank you. That is equal. You're welcome.
Starting point is 01:24:21 And I will say, I don't got no homegirls that have any issues with paying for a haircut, buying gifts, taking you out. None of my homegirls have issues with that. So that depends on the woman you're dealing with. Sharon, good morning. Good morning. Hey, Sharon. What's your thought, Sharon?
Starting point is 01:24:35 My thought is, as a married woman, I'm sitting right here next to my husband. is my stuff is so good to him that after his gratification, he wants to hook up to say his wife up is alright with me. That's right. But if it's just a man and I'm taking money for sex, I'm just
Starting point is 01:24:59 a hired hooker for however you want to call it. But then again, if I'm not getting anything for him then i'm just a hole that just got used so it's really well as a woman a married woman it's it's a it's a double ed it's a double ed question that's unfair to a woman and sadly enough the man is still gonna walk away a man whether he paid for it or whether he didn't. He's still walking away a man. But as a woman, a married woman
Starting point is 01:25:30 that's why I see him. Can I say something? People that are dead don't wake up dead. They're already dead. You don't know that. We enjoy you though. We enjoy you. When people wake up, they don't wake up dead.
Starting point is 01:25:44 You don't know that. When people wake up, they don't wake up dead. You don't know that. Thank you, Mama. You might wake up in hell. Now, K-Bob said, remember, she is receiving something, too. Material stuff shouldn't be involved in adult interaction. Mr. BMD Goins said, hell no. It's equal. My D is worth a million dollars.
Starting point is 01:26:02 Somebody, WJ Chrissy said Women always ready To do something For their man It's the man That never wants To do anything For the woman Have you ever heard Be like
Starting point is 01:26:09 Complain about Women will allow A man to move in And literally Not pay no bills If the D is where It's supposed to be at Gerald
Starting point is 01:26:17 We got Gerald on the phone Gerald good morning Good morning What's your thoughts Not all women Listen I don't think That men should be out here Paying for no poopom-poom.
Starting point is 01:26:25 That's some sex stuff. So you ain't never paid for nothing. You ain't never took a woman on a date. You ain't never bought no woman no clothes. You ain't never paid for a woman to get her hair done. You ain't never paid for a woman to get her nails done. You ain't never paid for a woman's car to get washed. You ain't never did nothing.
Starting point is 01:26:39 That's not paying for poom-poom, sir. Man, shut up. Yes, it is, man. People are taking this too literal. Y'all taking it too literal. When y'all said the $2,000 from Poon Poon, that's where it comes from. Myesha. We got Myesha on the line.
Starting point is 01:26:50 Yes, yes. Hey, Myesha, good morning. Talk to us. Good morning. Good morning. What's your thoughts, Myesha? Man, listen, like I said, mom, my grandmother always told me, why would you pay for the cow if you can get the milk for free?
Starting point is 01:27:04 Right? So I'm saying not a transactional type thing, but if you are involved with a woman, that requires a certain financial responsibility. I mean, you want her nails kept up, you want her kept up, and it's going to consist of you to pay for it because you're there when you want to be laying next to a woman that smells good and looks good. So people have to come out your way.
Starting point is 01:27:29 Period. And we acting like this hasn't been going on since the beginning of time. All of these rappers talking about making all of this money so they can have access to all of these women. You know, the city girls, JT and Young Miami said broke men don't deserve no poom poom. That's just the reality of the situation. And I'm not talking about just financial. I'm just simply saying, if you are choosing to be in a relationship
Starting point is 01:27:49 with a man, and y'all are engaging in sexual activities, the least that man can do is something for you. And I said it earlier, I don't care if it's $2,000, paying a bill, taking care of some rent. If you ain't got no money, cut the woman's grass. Take her trash out. Come fix something with your hands at the house.
Starting point is 01:28:06 Just do something for her. That's all I'm saying. How about just love her? And I'm going to tell you this. Women, if every time you have sex with a man, you want something,
Starting point is 01:28:13 you're going to be single for a long time because you're going to be in the head. Every time you want sex, you want something. You want something financial. That's a fact.
Starting point is 01:28:21 Somebody that says that and says, I want $10 after this is over that's prostitution but you do you if you have sex with somebody be like i need some money for my hair i'm not gonna roll over and say i need some money for my hair but if we get to a certain point you know what we're saying you get to a certain point with a person you want to be able to rely on that person that's all that it is let me ask envy this question because men we always say we only got two jobs what's our our two jobs, Envy?
Starting point is 01:28:46 Protect and provide, sir. So what the f*** are you providing, beige boy? I'm married, sir. I am a married man. I'm married too. I'm married too. What are we providing? What does provision mean? It's different when we're married. We provide for our family and my wife provides for me.
Starting point is 01:29:02 It's totally two different things. We're not dating. We're not seeing each other for the first time. We're not dating. Married life and having six kids is totally different when dating and then all of a sudden we have sex and you're like... The least that man can do is do something for you because boy, you're doing a lot for him when you open your legs. What you
Starting point is 01:29:17 buying me, Charlamagne? Man, shut up. You don't open your legs. You bend over, right? When we come back, Nyla will be joining us past the aux. It's Thela will be joining us. Pass the aux. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.

It's Max O'Kream? Yeah.

You just decided to just scare everybody with the last record. You know what I'm saying? It kind of reminded me of Grinding.
Starting point is 01:31:31 Why would you do that? It reminded me of Neptune. Neptune's grinding. It reminds me of Grinding a little bit. I thought so, too. And it says raining outside. The same crack I was talking. The vibe is going.

Well, first of all i don't know what all right so did you like the songs or not i did i liked all three of them i like the maxo cream i did all right it actually it's crazy you say that when you was playing the record i was was like, damn, how would Tyler the Creator sound on like some old Pharrell and Chad production?

Starting point is 01:35:40 SBH Productions, with the brilliant good sister, Erica Alexander. It's an audible original called Finding Tamika. It tells the story of a woman from South Carolina named Tamika Houston. She's 24 years old. She went missing in South Carolina in 2004. And tonight, 2020 is doing a special about that story and the project Finding Tamika. The special is called The Girl Who Looked Like Me. So it comes on tonight at 9 p.m. H Central on ABC. And then you can scream it the next day on Hulu. So please, please check that out. And tomorrow I'll be presenting at Global Citizens.
Starting point is 01:36:12 So if you're at Global Citizens tomorrow, I'll see you there. All right. When we come back, we got the positive notice. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Jess Hilarious.
Starting point is 01:36:23 Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Long and Rosa filling in for Jess. Charlamagne, you got a positive note before we get up out of here? I do. I also want to tell people, man, thank you to everybody who has been going out there and going to Kickstarter to order my graphic novel Illuminati. You can just go to Kickstarter, type in my name, Charlamagne, or type in Illuminati, and it'll come up. But just thank you to everybody who's been ordering that graphic novel, and I'll see y'all at Comic-Con next month.

Starting point is 01:37:06 I think you should feel the same too. But you'll get there one day. Have a blessed day. Breakfast Club, bitches! Y'all finished or y'all done?
