Setting my attention for the day, sir. Okay. I want to be happy. Alright. Cool little Hanes socks on there. Alright, let's get this show cracking. Front page news is next.
Starting point is 00:06:24 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now, Vice President Kamala Harris. Now, she was on Good Morning America, and she speaks about a lot. So she talks about inflation and the chain supply.
Starting point is 00:06:43 When did she do this? Yesterday. It's one of the highest priorities, actually, for the president and for me. And so we're dealing with this issue in a number of ways. Short term, one of the issues is the supply chain. We're seeing a bottleneck, and we need to relieve that bottleneck.
Starting point is 00:07:00 So we brought together everyone from the Teamsters to Target to say, hey, let's all bring everyone together, from the truckers to the folks who are moving product. And let's open up some of our major ports for work 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That's happening. And we're seeing great results long term. We need to bring down the cost of living. Now, she also talks about her and Biden's low approval ratings. Most Americans don't think the administration is keeping its promises. How do you explain that and how do you fix it? Polls, they go up, they go down. But I think what is most important is that we remain consistent with what we need to do to deal with the issues that we're presented with at this moment. And so let's again look at what we accomplished. It's
Starting point is 00:07:42 historic in nature, at least the biggest investment in infrastructure in a generation in America. Polls go up and polls go down. All I know is now that the approval rate is low, they want to pop up and do damage control. No Biden. OK, no Kamala. We don't want to see anything but tangible solutions to make the community better. Infrastructure bill. Cool. All right. Broadband in rural areas. I'm definitely for that. But don't forget about that George Floyd Policing Act, all right? Until
Starting point is 00:08:07 y'all get rid of that filibuster, all right, so y'all can properly govern and really put some legislation through, ain't nothing shaking for y'all. Now, Kamala also talks about being underused. They think you can be more helpful than you've been asked to be. Do you share that frustration? What do you say to your
Starting point is 00:08:24 friends who are frustrated? This was a good week. And this week, when we got this bipartisan infrastructure act passed and signed by the president, makes a statement about all of the hard work that has gone into it. We're getting things done and we're doing it together. So you don't feel misused or underused? No, I don't. Oh, Lord. I really wish the Democrats would just let Vice President Harris be the bad guy. Meaning, like, let her say the things that, you know,
Starting point is 00:08:53 Joe Biden can't say. Let her call out Manchin and put the pressure on Manchin and the cinemas of the world. Let her be that person. Well, your President Joe Biden is balling! He spent $5 billion. You want to know what he spent $5 billion on? Don't say it like that.
Starting point is 00:09:09 That man ain't got no $5 billion. He spent $5 billion on 10 million courses of Pfizer COVID treatment pill. Now, this pill is effective. What the hell did you just say? 10 million courses of Pfizer COVID treatment pill. It's highly effective in preventing hospitalization among high-risk adults in a clinical trial. There's a COVID pill? Yeah, that's where you've been.
Starting point is 00:09:27 You don't be listening. I saw the COVID pill, but I didn't know it was done. I saw that they were working on it. Yeah, they said the delivery of the pill will start at the end of this year and continue through 2022. They ain't got time for no more pills, man. Pills? Yeah. So what, instead of getting the shot, you get the pill?
Starting point is 00:09:41 Are you asking me, bro? I'm just telling you what they're telling me. You want me to lie? You want me to lie or not? I'm just telling you what they're telling me. You want me to lie? You want me to lie or not? I'm just telling you what they're telling me. I don't know. But that's what he just spent $5 billion on. I'll tell you one thing. If it gets you high, some of these people are going to
Starting point is 00:09:53 take it. They're going to add it right there with their perks and their zannies and everything else. That's what they need to spread. They need to put out a room on the internet that them Colby pills get you high. Add it in perks. If they say that, it's going to be a lot of people trying. I'm telling you that right now. All right.

You guys can do the city that she was born in. I thought of that.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Yo, that's what I thought. But they don't want to use that name. That's what I want. So that's the name I was going with. Kingston. You know, she's from Kingston, Kingston, Jamaica. But I was like, Kingston would be cute. But my wife was like, it might be a little masculine.
Starting point is 00:14:24 But I'm like, Kingston is is dope it's just a dope name hey man at the end of the day it's always going to be her decision but that is a pretty good idea that's the same thing you might have just pushed it over the edge I'm going to be like this is a sign how would you know that? I don't know man it's God only God really
Starting point is 00:14:40 and I just want to say thank you as well for my wife she's been pushing me through all this struggle I've been going through. She helped me with my new job.

Get it off your chest. 800- 585-1051. If you need to vent, bro. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:15:09 The Breakfast Club. Let's go. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're man or blessed. Say it with your chest. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So if you've got something on your mind, lay it out. Hello.
Starting point is 00:15:24 Hello. It's Monique from Georgia. Hey, Mon Hello. Hello. It's Monique from Georgia. Hey, Monique from Georgia. Hey, Monique from GA. What's happening? Get it off your chest. So this is a little much, but I have a seven-year-old son in first grade, and his school is restraining him. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:15:41 Like putting a mat on the floor, laying him down, holding him by his wrist and by his feet. Why? So let me give you a little bit of backstory. What do you mean? Why? anybody when it comes to schools and things like that. But instead of them responding to him as if he is a traumatized child who, you know, has severe anxiety, ADHD, things like that, they respond with strength. And then they can justify it and say, oh, he's a harm to himself or a harm to others. And that's why you need actual mental health care professionals in these schools. You need people that specialize in SEL, that specialize in mental health literacy to know how to deal with a young man like that.
Starting point is 00:16:33 And they have zero in their schools, by the way. It's a predominantly white school. And I'm actually 45 miles from Brunswick, Georgia, where they killed Ahmaud Arbery. So let that sink in, yes. I don't know. Why you sound so calm?
Starting point is 00:16:49 I mean, I respect the fact that you sound so calm, but damn. Listen, it's hard. I go through this daily with them. And then it's kind of like you go to the school and you don't want to be the angry black parent, but they push you to be the angry black parent. You know what I'm saying? Well, can I give you some advice what you need to do? You need to call a local school board and call a principal
Starting point is 00:17:10 and explain to them what's going on with your son. They will probably book an appointment for you or write down something on a piece of paper. You take it to a doctor. And a lot of parents with, what does he have? He has ADHD, mood disorder, severe trauma, and anxiety. Does the doctor give him medicine for it? Yes, he does.
Starting point is 00:17:29 Yeah, there's no way they should restrain your child. They shouldn't restrain your child, period. They have documentation that he has a doctor, they have a doctor's psychological evaluation saying what he has, and they still do it. No, they have special teachers in special school districts that's supposed to be helping those kids with that. You should really reach out to the school district, whoever runs that school district.
Starting point is 00:17:52 You should send them an email. You should definitely write letters. They have money allocated just for students like your son. Yeah. Do you know how long I've been fighting this school for over a year to try to help my son. I just was able to even get like an IEP. But the problem is even you could put all the plans in place. If you don't follow them and you're not, you're dealing with a child traumatized. It's not just a child with a behavioral problem.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Because that's how they do. They write it up like he's just a problem. Not that, oh, he's traumatized and charlotte you said it yesterday's trauma response fight or flight that's right so when they when he sees y'all coming he knows what's about to happen that's right he definitely fights his way out of it right then they'll say oh he's aggressive and if yeah people will be like oh he attacked us no that's the natural response that your body has to feeling threatened or stressed. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:18:48 I think you need to take your kid out there at school personally. But that's just because they don't put their hands on your child. Your child ain't going to never feel safe there. Yeah, you might if there's a closer school district. I kind of feel like that's what they want me to do. They keep doing it. It's kind of like maybe if we keep doing this, another school will just pull them out. So you feel
Starting point is 00:19:05 like that school is a good school district but they don't want your black child in exactly exactly go where you're celebrating not where you're tolerated absolutely you're right you're right we'll see i'm trying to look into other things for him it's very limited around here when i did try to pull him out last year they sabotaged him. They were in contact with the news pool, putting things in his file that they had never even shown me. Like, basically sabotaged me. He lasted two weeks at the school. Damn. My goodness.
Starting point is 00:19:34 All right, mama. And if you know anybody, Charlamagne, who can help or, you know, like. I absolutely do. Or anything, please send them my way. No, I absolutely. Hold on. I'm going to get your info right now. I'm going to send you an some acetate or anything, please send them my way. No, I absolutely... Hold on, okay? I'm going to get your info right now. I'm going to send you an email right now.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Okay, okay. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Now, when we come back, we have rumors. We're going to be talking versus Chaka Khan. Chaka Khan. Let me rock you, Chaka Khan. And Queen Stephanie Mills.
Starting point is 00:19:59 From Stephanie Mills. I'm going to be disrespecting my people, yo. Can I get to Stephanie Mills and Chaka Khan first? Nah, yo. Nah, yo. You put all that sauce on Shaka. And I love Shaka. I just said Shaka Khan.
Starting point is 00:20:07 But don't do that. Let me rock you, Shaka Khan. Now I was going to get to Stephanie Mills. I don't like that. Do Stephanie Mills. Stephanie Mills. Stephanie Mills. Let me rock you.
Starting point is 00:20:16 That's not her song. Why do you want to rock her? That was Shaka Khan. So sing Stephanie Mills' song right fast. Something in the way you make me feel. All right. So we're going to do something in the way you make me feel. Versus Chaka Khan, Chaka Khan, let me rock you, Chaka Khan.

But you know, because you don't hear a lot of new R&B songs. They play the same ones over and over and over and over again. But back in the day when we were coming through, they played everybody.
Starting point is 00:27:08 Everybody got equal. They did. I don't disagree with that, Auntie, but they got this thing called Screamin' now. You can pull up any black artist you want. A lot of R&B on the Screamin' services. Want to hear some more? Let's hear some more. That's my favorite girl

And we're talking about Chaka Khan. Chaka Khan. Let me rock you, Chaka Khan. It was the versus last night. And we're talking about Queen Stephanie Mills as well. But we're talking about Chaka because Chaka was the drunk auntie at the party. And I don't see the problem.
Starting point is 00:47:13 I feel like Chaka has earned the right to get drunk and get on that stage and have a great time with Queen Stephanie Mills. If she want to sing off key, she has earned that right. Well, let's hear a little bit of it. Baby, baby, when I look at you, I get warm inside. There's something about the things you do, baby. It keeps me satisfied. Come on now. I wish I was out there with her drunk singing off key.
Starting point is 00:47:43 I wish I never met her at key. Oh, my goodness. Okay. Hello, who's this? Hi, it's Angie from Brooklyn. Angie from Brooklyn. How do you deal with your drunk aunts and drunk uncles at a party? Number one, I give them a disclaimer. I call them before and say, don't start that.
Starting point is 00:48:00 I'm not interested. Don't embarrass us and don't ruin dinner. That's number one. Number two, if I see you're starting to get a little too wild on the sessions at my house, I put the liquor in my room and I lock it up. Cut everybody off. Why though? Because it's annoying, Charlamagne.
Starting point is 00:48:18 I don't want to be the only one following behind somebody that's drunk. That's annoying. I still have a turkey to take care of. I'm with you, but man, we wouldn't have these stories to tell if it wasn't for the drunk uncles and aunties. And some of us... I have enough stories to last me a lifetime. I'm going to do my macaroni and cheese dinner tonight.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Thank you, Baba. Hello, who's this? Hello, this is Ramon. Ramon. Good morning, Ramon. Good morning, good morning. Now, your mom is a drunk auntie? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:49:04 I don't like the beer drinkers. The beer drinkers and the cigarette smokers, that's just nasty, okay? I like a classy person drinking on some yak or some tequila. See, that, well, tequila's a double s***. We don't do tequila. I love tequila. Anything can happen, anytime. I'm with it.
Starting point is 00:49:20 Give me some yak and some tequila. That's what I like. And I like wine. I like wine drinkers. People that can drink all that beer. Hello, who's this? Hey, good morning. Breakfast Club.

When you got a drunk uncle, you got to respect the drunk if that makes any sense, man. You know, we had this uncle by the name of Wee Wee and all he did was he loved

Now, if you haven't heard, yesterday, Memphis Police Department, they released surveillance photos of the two people that assassinated and killed young Dolph. And they're hoping that somebody will maybe notice something and possibly give them up.
Starting point is 00:56:11 And also yesterday, they released a picture of their car, the drive away, the getaway car, which is a white Mercedes Benz E-Class coupe. Yeah, I told y'all yesterday, man, you got to call Crime Stoppers. And the reason you got to call Crime Stoppers is because you got to get that element off the street. You don't break those cycles until you break those cycles. Because all those two guys are going to do, if they would pull up to a Madea's cookie spot and shoot that place. Makita's cookie spot and shoot. I said Madea. Makita's cookie spot and shoot that place up like that in broad daylight.
Starting point is 00:56:41 They'll do that anywhere, anybody and the next person that may happen to maybe you or somebody you love you gotta get them off the street yeah now also our young dope's wife she uh left a comment on uh well she put left a post she said thank you to everyone for all your prayers love support calls and messages i may not see them all but when my eyes are not full of tears i catch a few, all the genuine positive vibes, energy, and prayers are welcome because Lord knows I need them.

Starting point is 00:57:11 is, how am I going to tell my babies their dad is never coming home? Lord have mercy. Definitely send her healing energy. Send the healing energy to the whole family. Alright, now Soulja Boy got into it with Trouble, who's another artist, because Soulja Boy released a record. Soulja got to knock it family. All right. Now, Soulja Boy got into it with Trouble,
Starting point is 00:57:26 who's another artist, because Soulja Boy released a record. Soulja got to knock it off. He released a record. The record is called Stretch Something. He said the record was
Starting point is 00:57:33 released a long time ago, but they're saying the record was actually released a day ago. You want to hear a snippet of the record? all right now he got back he went back and forth with trouble he got a little disrespectful and we don't have to play that i love soldier but don't play with none of that king you know i'm saying somebody lost their life you know that's what that's when you got to know when, you know, everybody's performing, right?
Starting point is 00:58:07 And everybody's entertaining on social media. But you got to know when to stop entertaining. You got to know when to stop performing. Somebody lost their life, King. Mike, come on, cut that out. Now, the Millennium Tour was actually stopped to perform. They were stopped to schedule to perform this weekend, but they took Soulja Boy off of that date
Starting point is 00:58:26 just because of everything that's been going on, and Soulja Boy responds to that. Cut the motherfucking shenanigans. Don't be acting like it took no money out of my pocket talking about all you former the bad. First of all, I'm still getting paid. So all y'all deals make my job easier. I don't got to come, and I'm still getting paid. So y'all, all y'all did was make my job easier. I don't gotta come and I'm still getting
Starting point is 00:58:45 paid. So thank you. Second of all, I will be on the next show. Yeah, I mean, that's for the best and I'm happy and I'm happy he's still getting paid. But yo, Soulja, stop performing for those idiots online because I'm seeing all of these videos and people saying Soulja Boy did X, Y, and Z. Soulja Boy had nothing to do with that situation. You know what I mean? But these idiots in the street will see that stuff online and think he did have something with that situation and be retaliating for no damn reason. Like, cut it out, man.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Like, stop it. Knowing to distance yourself from silly stuff like that. That's just bad energy. Now, I hate people like this. Now, let's move on. Antonio Brown allegedly sought out a fake COVID-19 vaccination card. Now, the NFL is investigating. Now, this is how he allegedly got caught. The claim comes from Antonio Brown's former live-in chef. They're saying that him and Antonio Brown got into an argument. You're fired. And now they said he got into an argument over unpaid services, and now the chef allegedly told the NFL that he has a fake COVID-19 card.
Starting point is 00:59:47 Now, how can he prove that? What if my card real, but you're just saying it's fake just because you hate me? Yeah, why you go through that? Like, if we got a disagreement, it's a problem. It's me and your problem. You going to go to my job and say you got a fake card? That is a good one, though. No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:59:58 It is, though. It's fresh. It's new. You know what I mean? That's a really good new insult. That's a new way to get at somebody. He got a fake COVID card. That's new. That's fresh. It's new. You know what I mean? That's a really good new insult. That's a new way to get at somebody. He got a fake COVID card. That's new.
Starting point is 01:00:07 That's fresh. Now I get investigated. I could get suspended. I'm going to start using that one. I'm going to start threatening people. I'm like, all right, now I'm going to tell people that you got a fake COVID card. That's whack. I like it.
Starting point is 01:00:19 Drop on the clues bombs for him just doing something new. That's a new one. Because we hear the same old ones all the time when somebody gets mad at somebody. That's a new one and that's a good one. You got a fake COVID card? Eh. Get you in a lot of trouble. I like that.
Starting point is 01:00:35 Definitely get you in a lot of trouble right now. I like it. You're being creative. Alright, and lastly, Mike Tyson, he did something that most boxers didn't do. He allegedly needed sex before fights or he said he would kill his opponents. Most boxers say they have to not have sex for a couple of months. He said he had sex right before the fight. Interesting.
Starting point is 01:00:57 I mean, I'm sitting here thinking because I know that Mike lost fights. He said, I had girls tucked away in bathrooms and changing rooms. He says, if I didn't get laid, I would kill this guy. But see, it really does make me think about the fights that Mike lost. So if that was his routine before the fights, did that sex help or hurt him? He says, sometimes I go in with him for a minute, bang the ish out of him, and then snap his neck and say, okay, this guy is going to live tonight. I'm really just thinking about the times he lost.
Starting point is 01:01:26 What about the times he lost? I don't know. It doesn't say anything about the times. He lost a few times. Maybe he didn't have sex that night. I don't know. Maybe he had too much sex. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:01:33 That's what I'm saying. Did the sex help or hurt in the situations and the times he lost? That's what I would like to know. I do knew. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. Angel E is out, but coming up next, Sean. I like how you role-played Mike Tyson having sex.
Starting point is 01:01:45 I can tell you've done that before. What? I did not. You did. You did it very effortlessly. Well, we're going to talk about kinks next hour, too. I don't want to talk about kinks. You got a kink?
Starting point is 01:01:55 In my neck. Would you like to come rub it up? Who you giving your donkey to, man? No, I got a kink in my neck, kink. No, I don't want to hear about you. Kink. No. I got a kink in my neck, kink.

We need Travis You want to come rub it out since you asked about it? I'm good. Huh? Nope. I'll pass. Donkey of the day is going to Travis McMichael. We need Travis McMichael to come to the front of the congregation.
Starting point is 01:02:10 We'd like to have a word with him, please. All right. We'll get into that next. I just want to say one thing. When I was talking to the producer, producer, I was like, you got any kinks? He was like, I don't eat butt. I just don't like eating. He did. He went crazy.
Starting point is 01:02:19 I mean, he just told on himself. Dan, say his name. Dan. Dan was like, I don't eat butt. I don't eat butt. I was like, what? I just don't like the looking butt. Nobody said nothing about that.
Starting point is 01:02:27 All we asked you is, do you have a kink? And he went crazy. He lost his mind in this room. Dan, you want to talk now or later? Later. He said later. All right. Talking of the days up next, it's The Breakfast Club.

You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show,
Starting point is 01:03:08 where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout?
Starting point is 01:03:33 Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider podcasts. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my country? My forefathers did that themselves.
Starting point is 01:04:33 What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. You know, this explosive warhead. Oh, my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets.
Starting point is 01:04:46 We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self-preservation and protection,
Starting point is 01:05:27 it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This is America. There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Yes, you are a donkey. The latest on that police killing of a black man. Now to new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage. And yesterday was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did. And so we are in a state of emergency. Okay, white supremacist violence is and always has been the number one threat to our society.
Starting point is 01:06:32 But I'm also very proud that my wife is white. The Breakfast Club, bitch! All right, Charlene, please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day? Donkey of the day for Friday, November 19th goes to Travis McMichael. Travis McMichael is one of the day? Donkey of the day for Friday, November 19th goes to Travis McMichael. Travis McMichael is one of the crack-ass crackers who cost Ahmaud Arbery his life. Okay, look, man.
Starting point is 01:06:52 Uncle Sharla, Brother Lenard, whatever you want to call me, I'm sick of America acting like we don't know what it is. All right, stop being politically correct when it comes to racism and bigotry in this country. All right, the de-crackification of America will not begin until we properly identify crack-ass crackers and crack-ass cracker behavior. We know there is a difference between good white people and crack-ass crackers. But if you good white people cannot see that Travis McMichael, his daddy, Greg McMichael, and their neighbor are just racist-ass crack-ass crackers,
Starting point is 01:07:21 I don't know what to tell you. All right. But we've heard Travis McMichael on the stand the past couple of days. And I have some thoughts. Now, this is him explaining about how he felt he was being attacked by Ahmaud Aubrey. Listen, it was obvious that he was attacking me, that if he would have got the shotgun from me, then it was a life or death situation.
Starting point is 01:07:43 I shot again because I was still fighting. He was all over me. He was still all over that shotgun. And he was not relenting. So I shot again to stop him. No, sir. No, sir. That's not how that works.
Starting point is 01:07:58 Okay, y'all know I'm a huge mental health advocate. I've done a lot of work on myself over the years. I'm no expert at nothing. I am not the strongest avenger, nor am I the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, but there is things that I have learned that I can observe in certain situations and see what they are, because I've been in those
Starting point is 01:08:14 situations myself. Okay, I am sharp and bright enough to know that Ahmad wasn't attacking Travis McMichael. Not at all. What you saw in that very traumatizing video was the fight or flight response, which is an automatic physiological reaction to an event that your body perceives as stressful or frightening. The perception of a threat activates the sympathetic nervous system and triggers an acute stress response that prepares the body to fight a flight. I'm no therapist. I just see one on the regular, okay? But if a couple of white Santa Claus-looking dudes was chasing me with guns,
Starting point is 01:08:49 I could easily see why my fight or flight response would kick in. And these crackers got nerve. Nerve! This is what Malcolm X was talking about when he said the media is the most powerful entity on Earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty
Starting point is 01:09:05 innocent and that's power you chased ahmaud arbery with guns for no reason and play victim when he naturally defends himself against a pale-faced threat it doesn't stop there all right travis mcmichael was on the stand and this is where the logic don't even be logic. And he admitted that Ahmaud Arbery posed absolutely no threat to them. You can't make this kind of stuff up. Listen, he's not reaching into his pockets. No, ma'am. Not running. No, ma'am.
Starting point is 01:09:35 And he never yelled at you guys. No, ma'am. Never threatened you at all. No, ma'am. Didn't brandish any weapons. No, ma'am. Didn't pull out any guns. No, ma'am. Didn't brandish any weapons? No, ma'am. Didn't pull out any guns? No, ma'am.
Starting point is 01:09:46 Didn't pull out any knife? No, ma'am. Never reached for anything, did he? No. He just ran? Yes, he was just running. Case closed. I agree.
Starting point is 01:10:01 What else is there to discuss? Nothing. See, we all have eyes. We all saw that ahmaud aubrey posed no threat in the video but we have to do this silly song and dance in america where people try to tell us what we saw isn't what it is yes it was a modern day lynching yes the only threat ahmaud posed was he was black but we knew this already all right travis mcmichael literally said what we all saw the question did ahmaud aubrey yell at you or brandish a weapon before the deadly
Starting point is 01:10:26 encounter travis mcmichael replied no he was just running that's exactly what we saw in the video you suspected that man was up to no good simply because of the color of his skin because he was black he thought he was a burglar and there was no evidence he stole anything now he's dead because of your fear of blackness which i will never understand i will never understand how racist bigot cracker ass crackers have been doing things like this for years since the beginning of time since we got here yet where the ones perceived as threats black people how did they convince the world that black is what you should fear when they the ones doing all the carnage not only that him and his father had a text convo and listen to them talking about being racist and getting rid of vermin listen she said we've had a
Starting point is 01:11:16 lot of trouble with thieves it just worries me because my daddy is slap old crazy lol he's old as dirt doesn't care about jail and you, that's what this world needs more of. My old man is the same way. I did say that, yes ma'am. And then the next line is, you said, hell, I'm getting that way. I did say that. She said, have to make an example out of somebody. You said, that's right.
Starting point is 01:11:40 Hope y'all catch the vermin, correct? I did. America, can we stop playing? It's Friday. Can we stop playing? All right. We know where the crack-ass carnage is coming from. Can we stop playing so we can really de-crackify this country?
Starting point is 01:11:54 Can we? Can those of us that are on the right side of history finally start calling these crackers what they are? Can we? Can good white people start calling out the crack-ass crackers? Can they? Maya Angelou once said when someone shows you who they are believe them the first time lenard mckelvey charlemagne the god says when crack ass crackers have shown you who they are for four for hundreds and hundreds of years okay believe them and punish them for it, okay?

Starting point is 01:31:13 EVP and CMO. Not the initials. All the initials. And CMO. Thank you guys. So for people that don't know, what are your responsibilities at BET? Really, quite honestly, it's about marketing, right? It's the strategy behind
Starting point is 01:31:25 what we do. It's supporting all of our shows across all of our platforms from the linear side, the cable side, the cable side of the business to digital to streaming. We just launched BET Studios, which is like a huge play that we're doing with Kenya Barris. So really kind of setting up the whole strategy behind that, how the brand shows up, how we get people excited about the content, you know, all of the things that we're doing in the marketplace. So, yeah, and I get to work with an awesome team. You know, I saw when you first started working at BET, and they actually hired you from outside of media. So tell me how all of that happened, because you came from Coca-Cola.
Starting point is 01:31:59 Right. So I started really traditional, like, brand management track. So I started at P&G. That's where you start if that's what you want to do, because it's really known for training and development. Procter & Gamble. Procter & Gamble. And then from there, went to Coke. Worked at Coke for probably the bulk of my career. About 17 years at Coke.
Starting point is 01:32:16 But really ran the Sprite business for a very, very long time, both nationally and internationally. And then from beverages, then I transitioned to beauty. So moved to New York from Atlanta, was a CMO at Cody, ran a number of our businesses, ran the Shea Moisture business for a while while it was acquired by Unilever,
Starting point is 01:32:36 and then got the call from BET. So I've always danced around media and entertainment. Again, when I was at Coke, ran our relationship with the NBA, LeBron, Drake, all of the all of, you know, all the talent that we had, especially on Sprite. We had a lot of, you know, connection to culture and hip hop specifically. But, yeah, it was, you know, the call to kind of jump straight into media, which was, you know, to me, it couldn't have been at a better time. You think about all the stuff that's been happening, you know, for like the last two years. And I think, you know, so for us to think specifically at BET, you know, I've always kind of looked at it and it was a client for like 17 years. So now on the other side of the table,
Starting point is 01:33:15 and it'd be a part of something that, you know, really is rooted in, I think what we do, because for us, you know, black lives have always mattered, you know, if you think about when it was started over 40 years ago. But in addition to content, I think we are really committed to changing outcomes for the community. And so if you think about all that was happening over the last two years, like we were like we felt like we were on the front lines. Right. So between COVID and managing all of the things that were happening to our community and our audience, I mean, we felt a deep sense of responsibility and obligation. So you started right before the pandemic? No, no, no. So I started about six months before.
Starting point is 01:33:50 Woo, that is right. Yeah, that's crazy. That was no joke. So how difficult is it for like companies? I know one time it was difficult for BET to get the same amount of sponsorship dollars from these corporations as in some of these other networks. Is it still that difficult?
Starting point is 01:34:04 You know, it's, well, we're in a moment right now. I say everybody's chasing black. So, you know, so thankfully the, you know, the business is doing really, really well. But, you know, it's always been difficult, you know, sadly, right? Because we are always trying to, you know, champion and advocate for our community and for our audience. And I think, you know, even, you know, while I was at Coke,
Starting point is 01:34:24 we always had to make the case for action. Like, even on Sprite, like, why do you want to support hip-hop? It's like, what are you talking about? You know, we're here to advance and contribute to the community. But I do think that it continues to be, you know, an interesting conversation.
Starting point is 01:34:36 Yeah, to make sure this continues even after a moment. Yes, exactly. So that is kind of always, you know, the challenge because it's like, you know, this is not something that you just kind of come in and co-opt and, you know, a chat, you know, the challenge, because it's like, you know, this is not something that you just kind of come in and co-opt and, you know, try to, you know, connect and, you know, with our culture when it's convenient for you. Right. And so but we've been able to demonstrate
Starting point is 01:34:53 that, you know, our culture is culture. Right. And so if you're trying to whether you sell wine or widgets, if you're not connecting with our audience, you're not relevant because there's such a strong connection between culture and commerce. Right. So I think the story that we've been able to really champion and tell at BET has just been consistent. Right. In terms of that messaging, because we value the audience so much. And so really trying to, to your point, show advertises the value of this audience.
Starting point is 01:35:20 Right. And so I often talk a lot about, know when return you know roi but it's return on influence for us why do you think artists a lot of artists don't take pride in bet like they should like you look at uh for instance the bet hip-hop awards right and you think about the five biggest hip-hop artists and i don't think they were there you know i mean but then you look at the grammys and then they'll show up at the grammys or they'll show up at the rock and roll Hall of Fame. But when it comes to home, it's like we don't get the necessary support from our own.
Starting point is 01:35:51 Yeah. You know, that's a real conversation. And I think, you know, we talk about it a lot. And so, one, I just want to thank you guys for the partnership and the support and the love that you give us. You know, it's an interesting conversation, you know know around where you really feel validated and valued and I think for us you know for us to your point around being home there's so many like firsts that have happened on that BET stage right you know and then you know after you know you know become you know big big stars there there is this kind of a little bit of a disconnect and we talk about it a lot and sometimes we even call it a black tax right like like we you know we get taxed
Starting point is 01:36:25 um in a certain way but my my perspective is you know let's take that tax to a luxury like because you're always going to be welcome back home right and so when things happen we you know it's the place where you come back to which is why i love when i see you know a lot of our big big stars you know whether it's you know beyonce or kendrick when they come back it's just huge right um but it is it is an interesting conversation. We complain all the time about, oh, the Grammy shouldn't matter. It's not fair, but then we're not showing up. And the Soul Train Awards, because I want to make sure we get into that, because this is exciting, too. And I love the Soul Train Awards. I actually have
Starting point is 01:36:59 had the opportunity to go a couple of times, but it's going to be in New York for the first time at the Apollo. So what is the thinking behind that? Yeah, so one, everybody loves Soul Train Awards. I mean, honestly, it really is like just this big, big party. And if you think about like Don Cornelius and what he was doing back at that time, you know, it was just pretty, pretty amazing. So, you know, we've been having a lot of conversations, you know, literally the last few years we've been, you know, reimagining BET.
Starting point is 01:37:24 You know, it's like, you know, let's be, you know literally the last two years we've been you know reimagining BET you know it's like you know let's let's be you know bold and disruptive and so everything's on the table by way of conversations and so coming off of the heels of BET Awards which I honestly think we set a standard of excellence like no award show has been able to do you know what we've done and Connie you know and the team they're just amazing right and so when we're talking about how do we kind of keep this renewed sense of energy in the shows, the idea came up to moving it to New York. Again, on the heels of all of the things that, you know, New York specifically has gone through during the pandemic.
Starting point is 01:37:56 And then we started talking about Apollo. And that, even internally when we were having these conversations, there was just so much excitement because we just knew, like, that's going to bring just a different level of energy to the show itself. And then all the things that we're doing, you know, for the weekend, you know, in terms of supporting the community. So we're just kind of like, you know, really excited about it. All right. And, you know, to the point of working with these small businesses
Starting point is 01:38:19 and also supporting the black community and being felt and not just seen, you also have an initiative that you're doing that we're actually participating in. Yes. Yes. and also supporting the black community and being felt and not just seen. You also have an initiative that you're doing that we're actually participating in. Yes, yes. With your money. With your money. I like that. Yes.
Starting point is 01:38:37 So over the last couple of years, especially the last two years, we really have been intentional about supporting black businesses, especially during the pandemic. And so as part of our effort this weekend with Soul Train Awards, we are doing the same thing. We're supporting black businesses. And so as a thank you to you guys and in support of all the things that you're doing,
