It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Let's get in some front page news. The reason I'm laughing is because my Giants suck. That's the reason I'm laughing, all right? All right. Chicago Bears beat the Lions 2013. The Ravens beat the Bengals. The Browns beat the Bills. The Falcons beat the Saints.
Starting point is 00:05:20 The Jets beat the Giants 34-27. Jets only have two wins. They beat the Cowboys The Jets beat the Giants 34-27. Jets only have two wins. They beat the Cowboys and they beat us. I saw that the Wu-Tang guys were at the Jets game too. They might be good luck. I think it was Raekwon, Method Man, Master Killer. I got to take a look. I just saw one of them.
Starting point is 00:05:37 I think Raekwon posted it. My goodness. The Buccaneers beat the Cardinals. The Titans beat the Chiefs. The Dolphins beat the Colts. The Packers beat the Panthers. The Titans beat the Chiefs. The Dolphins beat the Colts. The Packers beat the Panthers. The Steelers beat the Rams. And the Vikings beat the Cowboys 28-24.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Now, Monday Night Football. The Seattle Seahawks take on the 49ers. Now, what we talking about, Yee? Yeah, it was Method Man, Raekwon, Inspector Duck, and Master Killer at the game. And by the way, happy Veterans Day. Today is Veterans Day. So I know some people are off from work for that And shout out to all the veterans across the United States
Starting point is 00:06:08 For helping us protect our country You guys do so much My pappy was a Vietnam vet Is that your grandfather? No, my dad You call your dad pappy? I'm just saying my pappy, I call my pops Oh, I'm sorry, where were we?
Starting point is 00:06:24 Okay, weather, yes This week the Arctic blast is so cold Pappy, I call my pops. Oh, I'm sorry. Where were we? Okay. Okay. Weather. Yes. This week, the Arctic blast is so cold. They are saying that it's going to break more than 200 records across the United States. So just get ready for that. They're saying there's going to be record low temperatures possible across Texas, Oklahoma,
Starting point is 00:06:40 and parts of the Ohio Valley. That all starts tomorrow morning. And they're saying even in the South and the Gulf Coast, there could be more than a dozen record lows that are set. So like I told you, it's already snowing in Detroit. Yeah. It's supposed to be like 37 degrees tomorrow, 35 degrees. So it's going to get cold tomorrow. All right. Now, Donald Trump, there's this MAGA
Starting point is 00:06:57 challenge, and it was all started by a Trump fan named Bryson Gray. He wants some of the president's supporters to rhyme over his beat and, quote, make liberals cry. So Donald Trump, of course, is excited about that. And he tweeted plans to announce the winners
Starting point is 00:07:15 of the MAGA challenge and invite them to the White House. Here's how this challenge started. I am not a victim. I am not oppressed. They keep taking shots, so I might just buy a vest They sent her with my MAGA hat, I told them say less I bought the biggest MAGA hat, I did it just to flex Wear it every day, just to make them boys upset I can't be controlled by nobody or a check
Starting point is 00:07:34 They call me a coon, I'm not oppressed They don't like the truth, so at least they got some press He's black? Yes No Yes, he is Why is he doing this? He's a? Yes. No. Yes, he is. Why is he doing this? He's a supporter of Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:07:49 And, you know, if you see that challenge, that hashtag, I just want you guys to know what it is. Now, he told the Daily Dot last month, I think the MAGA challenge is doing what everybody expected Kanye West to do for the Trump campaign. And he said it would help ease the tensions in the culture and help get the word out about Trump while proving that not all Trump voters and GOP are stick-ups. So that is his plan. I wonder who this young man is where he's from and I'm sure he doesn't see a lot of the things that's going on. Maybe he doesn't. Maybe he's blind.
Starting point is 00:08:16 He doesn't see any of the racism. He doesn't see what he's doing for the immigrants. He doesn't see that before when he owned all those residential buildings he didn't let African-American people rent there. He doesn't see none of that, huh? The disgusting comments he's made about women and women's bodies. Or handicapped people and all that.
Starting point is 00:08:30 He doesn't see none of that, huh? He's still supporting. All right, now let's talk about Popeyes. More issues at Popeyes. Now, one of the employees actually ended up fighting a worker who was selling chicken sandwiches on the side. That's a good hustle. I ain't going front.
Starting point is 00:08:46 I'm not going to lie. Give me 10 sandwiches on the side, $20 a pop. That ain't that bad. That's smart. That's business. So the workers at one of the franchises in L.A. actually ganged up on the one employee they say was getting his money and selling those chicken sandwiches for the low.
Starting point is 00:09:02 He should have cut everybody in. No, that's what he should have done. That was his only mistake. If you're going to slide it on the side, everybody that knows, you give them a little bit. You get a chef a little bit for making them. You get a person a little bit just so they won't tell on you. And everybody would have ate.
Starting point is 00:09:13 It would have been good. Listen, there's all kinds of issues in Maryland. There was a customer that was fighting with the employees behind the counter, and then they dumped flour all over him. Really? There's so many issues right now. I still haven't had one. Me neither.
Starting point is 00:09:26 Mm-mm-mm. All right, well, that is your front page news. All right, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent. Hit us up right now. I smell like weed, and I don't even really smoke like that. But my hair, my everything, just from being around...
Starting point is 00:09:39 That's Detroit. ...all these smokers. And Detroit, of course, weed is legalized, right? It's not even that. This is L'Oreal, Gigi, and Stephanie being in a room with the girls from lip service as they smoke nonstop. Goodness gracious. All right. Get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Maybe you smell like weed this morning. 800-585-1051. Phone lines are wide open. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired?
Starting point is 00:10:06 Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy.

I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe
Starting point is 00:10:31 my country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my god. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help!

Starting point is 00:11:56 Listen to Post Run High 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, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
Starting point is 00:12:37 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 going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

Starting point is 00:14:13 Black Daredevil B-I-B-B-Y. Black Daredevil. All right, brother. All right. All right, man. Hello, who's this? Derek.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Hey, Derek. Good morning. Morning. How are you feeling this morning? You sound pissed. A little bit. I'm a little frustrated. You sound a little this? Derek. Hey, Derek, good morning. Morning. How are you feeling this morning? You sound pissed. A little bit. I'm a little frustrated. Sound a little spicy.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Derek, go ahead. Get it off your chest. Yeah, I just want to know why you automatically, like, when you found out there was a black man that sang that MAGA song, why are you automatically saying, why would he do that? Or, like, a black man can't like Donald Donald Trump or a black man can't be a Republican. Let's say a black man can't be a Republican, but I don't feel black people should like Donald Trump, especially the things that he's done for African-American people.
Starting point is 00:14:54 I don't see this. I don't see anything positive about that, man. Do you understand that he owned residential apartments in the city and he wouldn't lease them out to African-Americans? Is that positive for black people? Do one thing for me. Name a better country is better to live in the United States for wouldn't lease them out to African-Americans? Is that positive for black people? Do one thing for me. Name a better country that's better to live in the United States for an African-American. I want you to answer my question. Do you think it's cool that he owned residential buildings and not leased them out to African-American people?
Starting point is 00:15:17 Is that okay? I don't know anything about that. Oh, my God. Of course not. Answer my question. Name a better country that's better for an African-American to live in right now than the United States. And Donald Trump has African-American unemployment rates as low as it's ever been in history. Do you know that...
Starting point is 00:15:34 I don't know if that's true. Do you know that... That is true. African-Americans living in America has nothing to do with Donald Trump. Sounds like fake news to me. Do you know Donald Trump didn't allow the African-Americans to live in America? Do you know that? African-Americans unemployment rates have been under 7% at a history low for the past 17 consecutive months.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Listen, well, just because you don't know about the whole him not renting to black people, the Justice Department actually sued him twice for not renting to black people when he was serving as the president of his family's real estate company. So those are the examples right there. And they said that discrimination against black people has been a pattern throughout Donald Trump's entire career. He's been accused of racism over the years, working at his casinos in Atlantic City, New Jersey. They actually fined him $200,000 because managers would remove African-American car dealers at the request of gamblers. Also, that sounds racist to me. That doesn't sound racist to you? He
Starting point is 00:16:22 also has been very supportive of white supremacists and called some of them fine people. Fine people. That doesn't sound a little crazy to you? What about Donald Trump refusing to apologize to the Central Park Five after he went at them and it was proven that they were innocent? Or how about him saying that President Obama wasn't even born in the United States?
Starting point is 00:16:40 He was just saying he was. Shut up, Alex. Shut up, man. I hope you take part in that challenge. Oh, my goodness. I hate people sometimes. You know that? I really do.
Starting point is 00:16:51 He's like, I don't know anything about that. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051 if you need to vent. Now I'm mad. Hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Wake up. wake up. Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? It's Cliff calling from the Bull City. What's up, Cliff? Get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Man, these Dallas Cowboys. My Cowboys keep disappointing me, Envy. They're trash. I know what's going on. Aren't y'all planning to make it keep disappointing me, Envy. They're trash. They are trash. Aren't y'all planning to make it to the Super Bowl this year? They're not making it to no damn Super Bowl. We're still going to the Super Bowl. No, you're not.
Starting point is 00:17:32 As guests, are you participating? They're going as guests. They're going to be sitting there next to my Giants. No, I don't know about that, man. Y'all sorry. You sorry, too. Hey, but listen. Who sorry?
Starting point is 00:17:43 Derrick Jones needs to be fired, man. He has to be fired. I think he's doing a great job. Our team, we have all the talent in the world, but we just can't get there. I don't understand. You guys suck. It's more in my mind. You guys suck.
Starting point is 00:17:55 You need to pick another team, bro. We beat the Giants twice this year. We're about to sweep the division. We're going to the playoffs. Don't worry about it. What does that mean that you beat the Giants twice? You lost to the Jets. Man, we're not worried about the Jets. We're not talking about the Jets. We're talking about the Giants.'t worry about it. What does that mean that you beat the Giants twice? You lost to the Jets. Man, we're not worried about the Jets.
Starting point is 00:18:06 We're not talking about the Jets. We're talking about the Giants. The Giants suck. Hey, they do suck. But we'll be all right. You got sucked, too. Bye, man. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:18:15 Hey, what's going on, man? It's Ryan. Ryan, what's up? Get it off your chest. I mean, I struggle from this situation. I always smell like weed all the time and everything. But you smoking it, because I can tell you just had some. It sounds like you just smoked right now.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Well, that's what I was getting to. I mean, it's probably got to do with the fact that I stay smoking. I mean, that's the breakfast of champions to me right there. That sets my mind straight, focus on the day at hand, my cup of black coffee, and twist a little something up in the morning. But then you just end up smelling like smoke all day. Yeah, you know what, though? But nobody says nothing to me.
Starting point is 00:18:47 So I think maybe it's just because 2019 going on 2020, you know, people are just like, you know, with all these other epidemics and shit that's been going on, I feel like it's the lesser of two evils. People don't really care. And what, like, half the country is legal anyway. Yeah, you know what it is? I just don't like to come home and then everything smells like smoke. My coat, like, half the country is legal anyway. Yeah, you know what it is? I just don't like to come home and then everything smells like smoke.
Starting point is 00:19:07 My coat smells like smoke. My hair smells like smoke. It's just, you know, sometimes you... I mean, I keep it with the glassware when I'm home. I feel like that smells a little less. And, uh, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Like I said, people don't say s***, you know? They did it with a little axe or something. Did you just curse again? You gotta chill out, man. Yeah, he's hot. Bye.
Starting point is 00:19:25 Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Carolyn from Dallas, Texas. I can't believe I got through. Congratulations. You just had a little baby, did you? I just had a big nine-pound baby. Woo, that came out of you. Woo.

Hey, morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get to the rumors. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:21:26 Good morning. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk A Boogie. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report.
Starting point is 00:21:36 Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. So, shout out to A Boogie with the hoodie. Now, he's saying that he might take a break after he puts out Artist 2.0. He put on social media, this might be my last project for a while. I want to take a break from music
Starting point is 00:21:53 after Artist 2.0 tour is over. There's a lot of things I want to do in life and it's moving too fast for me to focus on everything at once. And then he said, I have a problem, but I think it's a good problem. I guess I got too many songs I want on Artist 2.0. And he said, you know, I will never let my fans down.
Starting point is 00:22:08 When you need me the most, I'll be there. So he is planning to just take a quick break. But he also has a lot of songs ready for his album. Now, he said 20 songs or 27 plus two bonus songs. How many songs should go on Artist 2.0? 23 plus two bonus songs or 25 plus 2 bonus songs. A Boogie got a lot of music. He's always recording.
Starting point is 00:22:29 Always recording. And you know what? He's right. Like, sometimes you work so hard and you go so hard and you don't take time to actually sit back and relax all the rewards
Starting point is 00:22:37 that come from all the hard work. A lot of artists always feel like if they take a break, somebody will take their spot, position, but you got to enjoy it. You got to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Record.
Starting point is 00:22:46 Take a little vacation. You ain't got to take six months. But if you got to take a couple of weeks just to reset, relax, I think everybody needs that. And you know what else, too? Sometimes you take that break and it helps with your creativity. Absolutely. All right. Now, Travis Scott, he had his Astroworld Festival.
Starting point is 00:22:59 When I was in Houston, people were coming to town to get ready for that. And when they opened the gates, things got crazy over the weekend. It was a video Saturday morning that Travis Scott posted that showed ticket holders actually climbing over the barricades, rushing to the entry gates. And it was all kinds of people, even little kids. Apparently three people did get hurt during this whole situation. But, you know, I mean, three people had to go to the hospital. It was minor leg injuries after being trampled. That could have been you, Envy. Thank God you weren't there.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Thank God I wasn't there. But, you know, the crazy thing is, like, all the barricades started coming down. And, I mean, they tried to make it as safe as possible. But there's nothing you can do when people jump the barricades. Like, if they're going to do it, they're going to do it. But I heard the show was amazing. And he released these Jordans that were yellow yeet. I need you to call the Connect and see if
Starting point is 00:23:46 you can get them for me. Oh, they out already? He only gave them to artists performing. Well, if they're not selling them. I mean, you got the Connect Connect, so just reach out to your Connect and see if you can get it. Alright, well, Travis Scott also brought out Kanye West during Astroworld Festival and people didn't anticipate that.
Starting point is 00:24:01 There were 50,000 people there, by the way. Wow, that's a lot. So shout out to everybody that performed. Young Thug was there, Pharrell, Marilyn Manson. Our girl Meg Thee Stallion, Migos was there. Did Marilyn Manson perform? Was he just chilling? I mean, he was listed as a performer,
Starting point is 00:24:19 so that's the one part I didn't see anybody posting. Yeah, nobody posted that one. I didn't see nobody posting performance. I saw a lot of videos being posted. I didn't see anybody posting. Yeah, nobody posted that one. I didn't see nobody posting. I saw a lot of videos being posted. I didn't see that. Okay. But, you know, he also had Kylie and Stormi there as well. And he likes to have Stormi there whenever he's performing.
Starting point is 00:24:32 So he wanted to make sure it was a bonding experience. And even though Kylie and Travis are supposedly broken up right now, they still are friends. So there you have it. And like you said, he already gifted everybody those Jordans. Now, speaking of concerts, Madonna is being sued. And that's because she changed the start time of her concert. It was supposed to start at 830 and she changed it to 1030. One person was fed up.
Starting point is 00:24:56 He said he bought three tickets. It cost one thousand over a thousand dollars for those three tickets to see her perform in Miami on December 17th. It's part of her Madame X tour. And according to his love, so he said now that show starts too late for him to be able to attend. And now he wants to sue for breach of contract. And he also said Madonna is known for being late to her concerts and that the first show of her concert started two and a half hours past schedule.
Starting point is 00:25:18 And due to her being consistently late, they said, we just can't deal with this. He tried to get a refund. He said he couldn't. Now the resale value of the tickets will decrease because the start time has been changed. So he wants to get his money. They should give him his money back. That's the only right thing to do. Yeah, it started late. It's going to start
Starting point is 00:25:34 late. And if somebody can't make it, you should be able to get your money back. Especially if it's an older person too. They want to get back in bed early. They all want to be playing around, getting back home after midnight. They couldn't nap before that. Nah, I don't want to get back. I don't want to be driving this hall for me to see at night. Sometimes the lights be glaring.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Nah, I need my money back. I was expected to be home by 10, 30, 11. Now I'm not going to be home until 1 o'clock. That's too late for me. I got work in the morning. Now, when it comes to being late, Madonna commented over the weekend while performing in Vegas, she said a queen is never late. So she didn't show up to her Vegas show, according to BuzzFeed, until midnight.
Starting point is 00:26:04 Yeah, that's too late for me. Alright, I'm Angela Yee and that is your Rumor Report. Alright, thank you Miss Yee. Now when we come back from Page News, what are we talking about? Well, let's talk about this Instagram likes thing. Everybody's been discussing that all weekend. You know, I'm on this lip service tour and every stop we've
Starting point is 00:26:20 been talking about it too. How does it affect you when Instagram won't show your likes anymore? We'll tell you what Nicki Minaj had to say and what Cardi B had to say about it. too. How does it affect you when Instagram won't show your likes anymore? We'll tell you what Nicki Minaj had to say and what Cardi B had to say about it. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:26:31 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. Let's start with sports. The Bears beat the Lions 2013. Ravens beat the Bengals 49-13.
Starting point is 00:26:44 Browns beat the Bills 19-16. Browns beat the Bills 1916. The Falcons beat the New Orleans Saints. The Jets beat the Giants. Come on, Giants. Buccaneers beat the Cardinals. Titans beat the Chiefs. Dolphins beat the Colts. The Green Bay Packers beat the Panthers.
Starting point is 00:26:56 The Steelers beat the Rams. And the Vikings beat the Cowboys. Now, Monday Night Football. Tonight, the Seattle Seahawks take on the 49ers. Now, what else we talking about, Ye? Well, let's talk. Tonight, the Seattle Seahawks take on the 49ers. Now, what else are we talking about, Ye? Well, let's talk about Instagram, right? Everybody's been discussing how Instagram is going to test hiding like counts in the United States. That's going to hurt some people, including influencers who actually use that platform.
Starting point is 00:27:16 And the amount of likes that they might get might help them reach a certain amount of money and a certain status, right? Well, here's how other people have weighed in on Instagram hiding those likes. Cardi B has something to say about that, and she disagrees with it. She thinks there's another way you can make Instagram less harmful. So from the beginning of Instagram, we had likes. Everything was just so fun, where I think that Instagram got a little nasty and it just took a weird term was when people started to like the comments or to reply back to somebody's comments. That's when I feel like people started like to say nasty things out of hand. Yeah, I could see that. And they could do a filter on there.
Starting point is 00:28:01 So when people curse or use certain words, it shouldn't be able to post, you know, when people say nasty things. You know, I know you can like report people when they really go a little crazy. Yes. But that's a whole process. Right. Now you have Nicki Minaj, right? Nicki Minaj spoke on it too? Yes, Nicki Minaj said, I'm not posting on IG after this week because they're removing the likes.
Starting point is 00:28:18 What should I get into now? Think of all the time I'll have with my new life. And here's what she had to say. Instagram is about to take away everyone's likes simply because they don't want you to go off on the side, forming all sorts of businesses and being able to say, you know, I get this amount of likes
Starting point is 00:28:39 and charging brands. They want you to have to pay them. If you pay them, then that's why we have all these sponsored Instagram posts. And that's why we changed up not having Instagram posts in chronological order. I agree with Nicki Minaj. I wholeheartedly agree.
Starting point is 00:29:03 You take away the likes. Now, the likes are not going to hurt me. The likes can't make me feel like I'm bullied or not. But if I'm an Instagram influencer and I post something, let's say I post a picture of a television and it gets 10,000 likes and that brand has to pay me for that. That's the way I make money for using Instagram. But now if you take away the likes, I can't monetize my Instagram as much. And I think that's the reason why Instagram is taking a reason to like.
Starting point is 00:29:26 They don't care about bullying. Like, who cares if I'm bullied if I got 5,000 likes or two likes? No, who cares about that? They're taking away that you can't monetize Instagram anymore. I agree with that. Yeah, but do you get to see the likes?
Starting point is 00:29:38 It doesn't matter if you get to see it. No, I'm just asking. Do you see the likes or is it just that other people can't see them? I'm not sure, but it doesn't matter because the companies are the ones that want to see the likes. Like if you do any deal on social media, they want to see your analytics. They want to see, you know, if people are responding, if people are commenting, if people are liking your picture. And that's how they decide what they're going to pay you.
Starting point is 00:29:57 You know, you got paid for posts before. I got paid for posts. Charlamagne, I'm sure, has got paid for posts. But they do it based on the amount of traction you have on your Instagram. And if you can't show that. Yeah, they do it by followers and how much you interact with people. So, yeah, I agree wholeheartedly with Nicki Minaj. Yeah, there's definitely some type of financial aspect going on here.
Starting point is 00:30:15 So how could they monetize that? What do you mean, how could they monetize it? Like for themselves, how do they monetize that? Well, I guess until they figure it out, they just take it away. Like it's one of those things, if I can't eat, nobody eats. And that's what it's pretty much they're doing. I don't think they care about people. If they cared about people, they would try to say, you know what?
Starting point is 00:30:32 Let me start taking these trolls off of Instagram. Let me have more policing of Instagram. Because there are people still bullying and people make fake accounts to leave stupid comments. People do that all the time. Figure out ways to stop all that. Who cares about the likes? And you know what? You can still pay Instagram. People boost that all the time. Figure out ways to stop all that. Who cares about the likes? You can still pay Instagram.
Starting point is 00:30:46 People boost their actual posts too. They pay Instagram to boost their posts. I know they make a lot of money like that. Well, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. What are your thoughts with Instagram taking away the likes? Do you think it will help? Do you think it will stop bullying?

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, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, we're talking about Instagram. Now, they're supposed to be taking the likes away from Instagram. So no longer can you see how many people like your pictures and all that other good stuff. So we're asking, what are your thoughts?
Starting point is 00:34:48 Now, Cardi B and Nicki Minaj both about this let's let's hear what they say so from the beginning of instagram we had likes everything was just so fun and where i think that instagram got a little nasty and it just took a weird turn was when people started to like the comments or to reply back to somebody's comments that's when i feel like people started And Nicki Minaj, this is what she said. don't want you to go off on the side forming all sorts of businesses and being able to say you know i get this amount of likes and charging brands they want you to have to pay them if you pay them then that's why we have all these sponsored instagram posts and that's why we changed up not having Instagram posts in chronological order. And I agree with Nikki. I agree. I think it has nothing to do with actually stopping bullying.
Starting point is 00:35:55 I think it has to do with stopping the monetizing of people making money. They just don't like the fact that people can make money off of Instagram. What does likes do? Have you ever got upset because your picture only got 10 likes, she? 10 likes? I'm just saying, low likes. Is that something that ever got you upset? Um, no. I just know certain things get way more likes than others. Like, I know
Starting point is 00:36:13 that you might be posting something about, like, an event you have or something positive, a charity thing. That definitely won't get as many likes as when you post something else. Yeah, but did you ever feel so bad and so low that you was like, I just can't take it anymore? No, nobody does. I haven't, but I'm also an adult and I'm sure it's different for younger people.
Starting point is 00:36:30 Alright, well let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? It's Janelle from Jersey City. Good morning. Now, what do you think about Instagram taking away the like feature? I think it's a really good idea. It's good for our kids and I'm sorry to say this, Envy, but you guys need to find another hustle. Our kids are more important.
Starting point is 00:36:46 But how does the likes do it? Because you can still troll. You can still say nasty things on Instagram. Now it's just a matter of not being liked. And you are correct, sir. But there are some young girls and some young boys out here who have low self-esteem because their friends may get 500 likes on the post and they'll get two. And I'm a mother of a teenage girl. You know, I hurt when she hurt.
Starting point is 00:37:04 So I'm with it. Yeah, but it gotta get to the point where we gotta kind of tell our kids to toughen up a little bit. Right? And the reason I say that, and I got five kids, and I'll be damned if my daughter comes and be like, Dad, only 200 people like this picture. No. It's not how we talk to our kids and raise our kids.
Starting point is 00:37:20 Like, I was one of those kids that got thrown into a garbage can and made fun because I had glasses and braces. Wait, wait, wait. Hold on, hold on. Slow down, slow down, slow down, Evie. those kids that got thrown into a garbage can and made fun because I had glasses and braces. Wait, wait, wait. And I never let it stop me. Hold on, hold on. Slow down, slow down, slow down, Evie. What? You got thrown into a garbage can?
Starting point is 00:37:31 Yes, once I did in high school. Put me in a garbage can and it broke me down. Wow. You should probably consider what your daughter feels like when she walks away from you after you tell her to toughen up. She may be tough in front of you for a minute, but when she walks away, it might be a different story. No, I mean, I got a close relationship with my daughter and I never had her to toughen up. She may be tough in front of you for a minute, but when she walks away, it might be a different story. No, I mean, I got a close relationship with my daughter,
Starting point is 00:37:48 and I never had to say toughen up. Just Instagram and social media was one of those things that she was never addicted to. She's not on there like a lot of kids are, but we have those conversations, and we've always had those conversations early. You know, we use, especially me, and I try to push my family to use anything negative for more inspiration to work harder.
Starting point is 00:38:07 But when I was made fun and I was called four eyes and metal mouth and all that other stuff. I'm sad. Don't be sad. I'm doing okay now. A lot of those people that used to call me that are effed up and broke. But did that hurt you at the time? No, because my parents pushed me and said, you use that inspiration to push yourself harder, that they hate you, and that there's nothing that you can do.
Starting point is 00:38:24 My parents always said I was handsome and I was smart and I was all these different things. Well, that's a blessing. I always said. You have to take it into consideration. It sounds so corny, but it's the truth. Mom and dad, I love you. How did this get about me? Thank you.
Starting point is 00:38:38 No. How did this happen? I don't know. So they threw you in a garbage can and then they They brought me down the hall. I got called off. They metal mouth. They put aluminum foil in their mouth and used to make fun of me. That's not funny.
Starting point is 00:38:51 What's that laughing? How did you get on the line anyway? What's your name, man? What's going on, Avery and Ashley? It's your guy, Rich Fatherhood. What's up, Rich Fatherhood? You hear this? What are your thoughts on Instagram taking away the likes?
Starting point is 00:39:04 Yeah, my thoughts on that is being as though I have a brand called Rich Fatherhood. You hear this? What are your thoughts on Instagram taking away the likes? Yeah, my thoughts on that is being as though I have a brand called Rich Fatherhood. Y'all check that out on Instagram and Twitter. Being as that I have a brand, it would affect the people getting into the masses. Like, you know, as far as getting exposure, as far as getting out to the people to let them know. I feel like it affected some kind of way down the line. What you think? You said it'll affect them further. It'll affect them sometime.
Starting point is 00:39:26 What do you mean? If the likes don't get out to the people, like trying to get your brand out there to the masses some kind of way, like promoting your business or your brand. I mean, I agree with you. Or maybe what Instagram should do is if you're under a certain age,
Starting point is 00:39:38 you just can't have likes. You know what I mean? And then the parents have to monitor it themselves. Like if you're under the age of 18, you can't have likes on your thing. Maybe that'll work. But just taking away likes for everybody saying we're going to stop bullying, that doesn't stop bullying.
Starting point is 00:39:50 It is an experiment, though, so maybe they're not going to really do it if everybody's outraged enough and people are leaving. Yeah, what's bullying is the people with no followers and no posts, leaving comments, saying nasty things. That's what's bullying. That's what hurts people. Oh, my God, Envy, I am so sorry. What are you sorry about?
Starting point is 00:40:06 I just feel like you really shared a lot with us this morning. Shut up. And for everybody out there bullying somebody, throwing them in a garbage can, calling them, don't do that, man. It was metal mouth is what they call me. Metal mouth, all of that is just mean. Four eyes, all that.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Anyway, 805-85-1051. We're talking about Instagram taking away the like feature. All right, call us up now at The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's topic time. Pick up the phone, baby. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Talk about it.
Starting point is 00:40:41 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Instagram taking away the like feature. All right. So we're asking, you know, how do you feel about it? I said, I think it's whack. I don't think people necessarily feel like they're being bullied because of the amount of likes that they get.
Starting point is 00:41:03 You can't bully somebody for that. And if somebody feels a way, I mean, that means that you have to have a conversation with your child about self-esteem. That's like I walk through the mall and somebody says, yo, you look nice. And my friend that's with me, nobody says anything. Does that mean that all of a sudden people shouldn't say that I look nice because nobody said that he looks nice? I don't think that has anything to do with anything.
Starting point is 00:41:22 It is because that's what likes is. It's just saying that they like the picture. Like because I don't like the picture, to do with anything. It is because that's what likes is. It's just saying that they like the picture. Like, because I don't like the picture, does that mean I'm bullying you? That's what that means? I think that kids just have a lot of anxiety and a lot of that is tied to social media. There's some issues that kids have to deal with that we didn't deal with growing up because we didn't have social media. So this is something that psychologically, we don't even know the effects of it yet. Because it is still fairly recent.
Starting point is 00:41:51 And imagine if you had social media back when you were getting thrown in a garbage can and rolled down the hallway and somebody put that on Instagram. I'm sure somebody might have 55000 people liked it. That would be dope. But I'm sure somebody has a picture. But I don't think that would be dope. I don't care because, you know, the people that threw me in a garbage can and the people that made fun of me, they're doing horrible. But at the time, you might have cared. At the time. At the time.
Starting point is 00:42:07 Maybe you don't care now, but at that time, Envy, when you had aluminum foil in your mouth and glasses and you was sitting in that garbage can, tears rolling down your face. I didn't have no tears on my face. But all right, well, let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Yo, what's up, Envy? It's Mello. Mello, what's up, bro?
Starting point is 00:42:24 We're talking about Instagram taking away the likes. What do you think? Man, I feel like that's nonsense. This is not fair because a lot of people, a lot of influencers got their start off of Instagram. And on top of that, like Nicki Minaj said, they're taking money out of people's pockets. Like, bro, how are you supposed to get paid off your hair plug endorsement if they're taking away the likes? That's right. And Envy, I've been working on this endorsement for you, so for your hair plug thing.
Starting point is 00:42:45 Everybody's been working hard for you, bro. How are you supposed to get your money off your hair plug? That is true, but I don't have hair plugs. But if I did, and this is the thing with the hair plug thing. This is the thing. This is the thing with the hair plug thing. Everybody knows I monetize everything. If I had hair plugs, I would be monetizing the hell out of it.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Don't act like you didn't ask me to hook this situation up that we about to do. I didn't ask you to hook me up with no situation, but if I had hair plugs, I would call it Envy Plugs and I would be definitely selling them. Envy Plugs, that sounds like a butt plug. See, you always go too far. You always go too far. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:43:20 Hey, this is Ali. Hey, Ali. We're talking about Instagram taking the likes. What are your thoughts away? What are your thoughts away? I'm talking about Instagram taking the likes. What are your thoughts away? What are your thoughts away? I'm talking about Instagram taking the likes away. What are your thoughts? I got you, DJ Envy. First of all, congrats on your fix and flips. I think you're doing a great job on that.
Starting point is 00:43:36 Thank you. I wish Charlamagne was here for the conversation. But honestly, initially, I felt like Cardi and Nicki, you know, I thought to myself, like, this is crazy. Instagram is just limiting the people. Once again, we finally have a platform where we can make money. But after I really thought about it, there's a different way that these companies can measure, you know, the impressions that they're gaining from their marketing. Like, for instance, Fashion Nova paying literally everybody and their mother to post on social media. Are they really paying them for likes?
Starting point is 00:44:04 Are they paying them based off impression? Both. Yeah, a lot of times they can tell when somebody also they give them a password. So people actually go and buy things using the special passcode to get a discount so they can monitor it from that. Exactly. And people pay for likes anyway. I mean, honestly, when I'm a father one day, I don't want my daughter clout chasing or
Starting point is 00:44:24 my son, you know. So honestly, these kids are growing up in an environment where they're on a platform from like the age of six. And, um, I, I think that it's a good thing initially. Uh, we'll see how it rolls, but mental health is, is the thing that triggered this. Um, we just have to have an open mind to change. And if it doesn't work, Instagram will change it back. So everybody who's spending like 10 hours, 7 hours a day on Instagram, they're just going to have to get used to it for now. Yeah, but you know the thing is, I agree with you, but the problem is I don't think it's the likes.
Starting point is 00:44:54 If it was let's take away the trolling and let's start policing more of the trolling, then I would agree. Because there's a lot of people that make fake pages, zero posts, zero pictures, and they're just able to say whatever they want to say and you can just create a page with just making fake information and that's the problem. It's not the likes I don't think. It's those fake pages and people are just creating
Starting point is 00:45:14 information and saying things to hurt your feelings and if you say abusive things on there, they should kick you off. Absolutely. I agree with you guys. I mean, there's tons of fake and bought accounts on Instagram right now anyway. But I think the likes thing is like a start that can actually lead us in the right direction to having like a better Instagram. OK, so he's for it.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Yeah, I'm for it 100 percent. And I think that comment should be, I don't want to say regulated because that's like, you know, that's too in depth. But I think that there should definitely be some sort of filter. But likes are, I think it's the first step to get us to that level. But we'll see what happens. I mean, honestly, Instagram should be a place where people have fun and make money, but it's become something else completely. I've never been bullied on social media before, so I can't really comment on it, but I know that there's a lot of people who have been. And plus, like, people... Yeah, I've been bullied on social media, too.
Starting point is 00:46:03 Yeah, trust me. All right, thank you, bro. Hey, man, I appreciate you guys. I wish been bullied on social media too. Yeah, we don't trust me. All right. Thank you, bro. Hey, man, I appreciate you guys. I wish Charlamagne was here for the conversation, but y'all have a great day. You too now.
Starting point is 00:46:11 As a matter of fact, I might get a part time job at Instagram just to ban some people. All right. Now we got what's the moral of the story? Damn, a moral of the story. The moral of the story
Starting point is 00:46:21 is that you got to figure out some new ways to make money because you never know what Instagram might do at the end of the day. It's their platform figure out some new ways to make money because you never know what Instagram might do. At the end of the day, it's their platform. It's not yours. So just remember, if it's yours, you can do what you want. Sometimes you're on someone else's platform and you are a victim to whatever they decide.
Starting point is 00:46:35 And not only that, don't think because they take the likes away that all of a sudden the bullying will stop. That's not it at all. We still have to have conversations with our kids and really push our kids to be better than us. And not worry about some damn likes you know i mean and not worry about these trolling and not worry about none of this stuff these are the conversations i have with my kids all the time and i'm so glad my kids are not addicted to social media uh they are on it but they're not on it like that and i love that but anyway we got rumors and the other moral of the story is man you could come a long way look at envy and all the sad stories he told us about his youth and growing up.
Starting point is 00:47:06 And just remember that those tables will turn. Shut up. What? You said it yourself. You sound like you wanted to say four eyes right after that or metal mouth right after that. I try to give you a compliment and all you do is insult me. We got rumors on the way. Yes, let's talk about Alicia Keys.
Starting point is 00:47:24 Now, this is something else that was a big topic over the weekend. And her son got concerned about trolling when he was trying to express himself. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:47:36 Good morning. A lot of people hit me about the likes on Instagram thing. Like I was saying, I don't care about the likes. I care more about the comments. And that's where I think the bullying starts, in my opinion. So that hurts your feelings? What? Not how many likes you get, but the comments?
Starting point is 00:47:48 No, none of it hurts my feelings. None of it. None of it hurts my feelings. So you think they should take away the comments? I think the comments is what's affecting people. And I think if they took away the comments... But I also feel like it makes the world weak. Why?
Starting point is 00:48:01 Because somebody says something nasty about you, you can't handle it, and it puts you to that point. We have to start really policing ourselves and make sure we understand those things. Well, we didn't even grow up in a time when there was Instagram and comments. That is true. That was fine. So I don't know that any of this is necessary in the world. Yeah, that is true.
Starting point is 00:48:19 And let's be clear. Instagram don't owe us nothing. It's a private platform. It's a private company in a way to make money. You don't have to go on Instagram. You don't have to allow your kids on Instagram, Snapchat, or Facebook, or MySpace, or any of that stuff.
Starting point is 00:48:32 They don't have to go on there at all. Twitter, none of that. But anyway, you know who texted me a couple hours ago? Kevin McCall. Oh, okay. So he was in jail, so he must be out. Yeah, he must be out of jail. And you had said that you were going to start checking up on him more often. I did.
Starting point is 00:48:49 So... I called him back, he didn't answer. But he hit me on Instagram, he hit me on Twitter, said give him a call, he left his number. He just got locked up, he was in court, and he got into a fight with the court officers and police officers. So I would love to have a chat with him. I'll try to call him one more time before we get off air. Hopefully he's doing alright. Now we got rumors on the way? Yes, we are going to talk about what is going on with all
Starting point is 00:49:10 this racism. We'll tell you two people who just recently, two celebrities who just recently posted their incidents that had them highly upset. You'll be highly upset too.

Starting point is 00:51:12 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. 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, 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.
Starting point is 00:52:09 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 going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Kevin Hart. She's spilling the tea.
Starting point is 00:52:45 This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, Kevin Hart has made his first public appearance since his terrible car accident. He was at the People's Choice Awards and he was accepting the Comedy Act of 2019 Award. It was presented to him by Robert Downey Jr. And here's what he told the audience. First and foremost, man, thank God, because I definitely don't have to be here. Being that I am, it makes me appreciate life even more. It makes me appreciate the things that really matter. Family. I want to thank my wife, my kids, who really stepped up to the plate
Starting point is 00:53:21 for me. I also want to take the time to thank the People's Choice Award just for this. This is amazing, but more importantly, the people, man. It means the world, and I truly want to thank you guys for being there for me in my difficult time. This is special. They all are. I do not take them for granted. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Well, welcome back, Kevin Hart. This is good to see him on stage. Good to see him out and about. Good to see him back to what he's doing, you know? All right. Now, Trina went to Walmart and things got a racial. She said another customer called her a N-word bitch. And the cops even got involved.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Check it out. Say it again. Say it again. Say it again. Say it again. Say it again, you dirty ass. I am a nigger. Say it again.
Starting point is 00:54:03 I dare you to say it. Call who you want to call. See, now this is the thing. I know they say, you know, words shouldn't affect us, but they do. And it's going to get to the point where people are going to stop using that N-word or they're going to start getting punched in the face. I mean, it's sad to say, but when you say something hurtful and you know how hurtful that word and that term is, and it's going to get to a point where people are going to get slapped, they're going to get snuffed, they're going to get punched because it's disrespectful.
Starting point is 00:54:29 And I'm sure that girl didn't say it again. Did she say it again? No, she didn't say it again. Yes, and law enforcement did come. They didn't take a police report because Trina decided not to do that, but they did escort her out for her own safety and let her get into her car and all of that. So, again, you cannot respond how somebody will react when you start calling them names and saying nasty
Starting point is 00:54:48 derogatory things. Now, DJ Kid Capri posted a video of himself. He was at a gas station in Alabama and he did not appreciate that the woman at the convenience store called Store 17 yelled for him across the store to remove his hoodie. That's not necessary. It is necessary.
Starting point is 00:55:04 You don't do that. That's discrimination. This lady's going to tell me to move my hood when I come in the store and yell it across the store instead of just waiting until I come to the counter and just tell me at the counter. Very disrespectful, and it's discrimination. You really don't know what you're getting yourself into right now. We have a person in the store. We have a person in the store that was discriminated against.
Starting point is 00:55:21 He told me to take my hood off when I got in the store and yell it across the store. See, now, I've been to many a store, especially in the store that I was discriminated against, he told me to take my hood off when I got in the store. He yelled at me to cross the store. See, now, I've been to many a store, especially in the South. I travel a lot, and a lot of times they'll have you can't wear your hoods in a store because usually the store's been robbed before, and they want to make sure that you take your hood off. But it's not wearing your hood and not wearing your hood. It's how the lady said it to him, and that's key. That's everything.
Starting point is 00:55:42 If it was like, yo, take your hood off, then it's like, no, I ain't taking my effing hood off. Come take it off for me. But if it's like, excuse me, sir, we ask everybody to take your hoods off in the store because we've been robbed before and we just make sure that... Then that's a different situation. Come take it off for me! Exactly. But if it was a situation where she screamed at him across the aisle on some disrespectful ish, then yeah, she
Starting point is 00:56:00 got what she deserved. Yeah, you can walk over or have some, excuse me, sir, you know, the policy is there's no hoodies in here. Right. Thank you. Because you already know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:08 And then there was another worker in there, so it wasn't like she would be behind the register by herself. There was another worker we've seen there. So just,
Starting point is 00:56:13 excuse me, sir. But you're right, it is how you say things to somebody. Absolutely, yeah. You talk to me nasty and disrespectful, I'll talk to you
Starting point is 00:56:19 nasty and disrespectful too. All right. No taking the high road here, right? No, no taking the high and call the police. What are they going to do? Stop getting mad at me. I got money.
Starting point is 00:56:27 I can pay for whatever I'm buying here. Kid Capri, I'll pay for Kid Capri's stuff if he ain't had no money or nothing. But shout out to my brother, Kid Capri. You're not just going to play him like... Now, how did this just happen? Kid Capri has his own money. He don't need you to pay for his stuff.
Starting point is 00:56:38 I know that. I know that. Why did you even say that? But I'm just saying, because Kid Capri is my brother and I hate to see somebody like my idol like that getting screamed at or getting played like that. No, it ain't work like that.
Starting point is 00:56:47 No, not at all. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. I'm glad Kid Capri didn't take off his hood. Kid Capri got enough money to buy that store and three of them. And if he didn't have enough money to buy the store, I'd help him. Let it go. Let it go.
Starting point is 00:57:00 You don't do that to our legends, man. He's a DJ legend. No, I agree with you. Now Rumor Report's over. No, sorry. All right. Donkey of the Day is up next. If you want to give somebody Donkey of the Day, 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:57:10 Whoever you want to give Donkey of the Day to, call us now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day at Charlemagne. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Keyhole. Donkey of the Day. Donkeys of the Day at Shogermay. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed life. So like a donkey. Keyhole.
Starting point is 00:57:28 Donkey of the Day. The practice club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but Donkey of the Day is a new one. Hello, who's this? This is Jarnay from Atlanta, Georgia. Hey, mama, who you want to give donkey to today? I would like to, I don't know if you guys heard of the missing student in Atlanta from Clark Atlanta, Alexa Crawford. Yes. Yes, her roommate and the boyfriend, they were arrested on death penalty.
Starting point is 00:57:56 So I just wanted to give them both donkey of the day because that was just messed up. What happened? Can you explain the story? I don't know. She was killed. Yes, she was killed and found in a cater, her body. Her roommate's boyfriend
Starting point is 00:58:10 raped her and she told the police about it two days before her disappearance and the roommate ended up telling them where the body was and found out that the roommate and the boyfriend had something to do with her death. Yeah, and that was one of her best friends. the roommate and the boyfriend had something to do with her death. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:27 And that was one of her best friends. What school did she go to? Clark Atlanta. Oh, my goodness. Okay. All right. Thank you, Mama. Yeah, so both of them have been charged
Starting point is 00:58:35 with felony murder also for that, but that was a really sad story. She had her over her house for the holidays and everything. That's crazy. Hello, who's this? This is Anonymous. Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Who you want to give Donkey to, bro? I want to give Donkey of the Day to whoever wants to offer me the cable. I'm a tech. Uh-oh. Now, all right,
Starting point is 00:58:51 this might be a little hard to understand if y'all don't hear it, but picture this. Say a tech comes to your house to do an install. You get internet. And it takes me
Starting point is 00:59:01 about 10 minutes to do what I have to do. After 10 minutes, I go there and set up the account. There's something wrong with the account, which happens most of the time. So now I have to call VDA to set up your equipment. When you call VDA, you're literally on the phone for at least two hours minimum before someone picks up. So you have a stranger in your house sitting on the phone waiting for someone for two hours minimum for them to pick up and then do what they have to
Starting point is 00:59:26 do to get your service on. And that's minimum. That's too much for me. I'm with you. I don't know what you're talking about right now, but anybody in my house that got to be on there for two hours, they deserve donkey of the day. Right. And that's minimum. There have been times I've been in people's house for six hours. After four hours, the call hangs up.
Starting point is 00:59:42 You have to call back to get people's services on. Alright. Well, thank you, bro. You have to call back to get people services on. Alright, well thank you, bro. I have Optima online cable. Hello, who's this? Good morning, good morning, good morning. This is Day Day from VA. Day Day from VA. Who you want to give donkey to,
Starting point is 00:59:58 Day Day? I'm calling because I got to give it to Angela. What you do? First of all, I appreciate your opinion. I love it because I got to give it to Angela. What do you do? First of all, I appreciate your opinion. I love it. I listen to it every day. You can't start off with a positive and then go negative. You just got to start negative.
Starting point is 01:00:12 No, no, no, no, no. You have to build up to let down. Okay. Okay. So, but it's like back to the TI situation. I just feel like certain situations, unless you're a parent, you don't even think the same way. Now, I would be appalled if he was in there with the doctor looking at the hymen.
Starting point is 01:00:31 But I come from a mom that told me from the beginning, if you're acting like an adult, I need to treat you like one. We know teenagers are liars. So from a parental's perspective, him wanting to know whether or not she's tainted. Did you say tainted? she did has she been touched? so if you get touched that means you're tainted and tarnished that's what you want to teach young girls
Starting point is 01:00:56 not at all you just said it once a woman starts having sex chartering in adult world so is a young man when he has sex is he tainted and tarnished? again Once a woman starts having sex, chartering an adult world. So is a young man, when he has sex, is he tainted and tarnished? Again, we're talking from a parental perspective. Okay, I'm asking you as a parent, if you have a young boy, a young man who's 16,
Starting point is 01:01:19 is he tainted or tarnished if he has sex? He's not my little baby no more. He's acting as an adult. So therefore, let's say he didn't have many chores. He might need to have more chores. So you feel like you feel like you feel like you shouldn't have a comment because she doesn't have kids? Not at all. See, I think that's wrong.
Starting point is 01:01:36 You don't you don't you don't think he was a child one day? You don't think you don't think that I have. And I'm also a woman. So maybe if you're a man and you've never been a daughter, you shouldn't have a comment. Is that true, too? Not at all. Because, you know, I know I know what it you've never been a daughter, you shouldn't have a comment. Is that true, too? Not at all. Because, you know, I know what it's like to be a daughter. I know what it's like to be a young girl.
Starting point is 01:01:58 And I know what it's like to have people say things about you and your sexuality and try to shame you for things that you do. And I also know what works effectively for me as a child growing up, that when you sit down and talk to a child and have these conversations, I think that can be very effective. I'm not telling anybody to tell your kids to go out and have sex, but I'm saying there's different ways that you can actually educate your kids and have an open line to communication instead of trying to intimidate them. But that's like saying because she doesn't have
Starting point is 01:02:20 a child, she can't give a comment on it. That sounds crazy, Day-Day, but thank you, Day-Day. That's like if you don't play a sport, that means you can't watch a give a comment on it. That sounds crazy, Day-Day, but thank you, Day-Day. That's like if you don't play a sport, that means you can't watch a game and comment on it. Right. 800-585-1051. That was donkey of the day. Now.
Starting point is 01:02:32 But regardless of the fact, I think it's a difference of opinion. There are some people that agree with me, some people who don't agree with me. Nobody's telling anybody how to raise their child. I'm just saying that I don't believe that that is a great thing as a woman and as someone who was a young
Starting point is 01:02:45 girl, that would not have worked for me. Right, and just because she doesn't have kids doesn't mean she can't comment on how she feels or how she looks at things. And guess what? Anybody who puts something out there, whether it's on a podcast, on social media, that's open for comments. Absolutely. Alright, now, up next, 805
Starting point is 01:03:01 855-1051. There was a Miami Heat basketball player that took an edible and had an anxiety attack and went a little left on the airplane. So he was suspended 10 games. So let's open up the phone lines. 805-85-1051. Have you ever got high at work? I know you have.
Starting point is 01:03:20 I was there for that. I was definitely high. We actually have the audio. Oh, yeah. We definitely have the audio. We play that when we come back. I want to hear your high at work stories, all right? I was high one time.
Starting point is 01:03:30 I don't even know who gave me the edible, but I took it, and it was just a bad morning. I was laughing for hours. I actually went home and gave it to my wife. And my wife- Gave what to your wife? The edible. Oh. What are you doing?
Starting point is 01:03:41 I gave her the Dino. I gave her the edible, and she was effed up. But we'll talk about it when we come back. 800-585-1051 is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club top. Come on. 800-585-1051. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:04:13 It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, we're talking about being high at work. Now, this comes from a Miami Heats basketball player. What's his name, Yee? Dion Waiters. Now, what happened with him? Well, he got suspended without pay.
Starting point is 01:04:29 He reportedly overdosed on edibles ahead of a game against the Lakers. It happened last week. Now, they made an announcement on Sunday. They said, Heat statement on Deion Waiters. We are very disappointed in Deion's actions this season. That includes a very scary situation on Thursday night. And grateful the outcome wasn't worse. And they said there's been a number of instances this season in which Deion has engaged in conduct detrimental to the team.
Starting point is 01:04:47 So now he's suspended without pay for 10 games, and that's because of the edibles that he had. Well, he didn't OD. He just took a large amount that he wasn't used to. He had some gummies, and he passed out, and he had a seizure. And then, yeah. Well, maybe he took too many then. All right, well.
Starting point is 01:05:03 Isn't that overdosing? He should have went to the house of Mary Jane out in Detroit and they would have gave him his right dosage. But anyway, so we're asking 805-85-1051. We're talking about high stories. You high at work. All right. Now we have one from Envy.
Starting point is 01:05:18 We actually have audio from when Envy was at work high. Oh, now I remember. I'm doing it. I'm doing it. So in my defense, I was always talk like that. I was high. Oh, now I remember. I'm doing it. I'm doing it for me. So, in my defense, I was high. You always talk like that. I was high. No, I was high.
Starting point is 01:05:29 I was high. And the bad thing about it is whoever gave me that, I don't even remember. I went home and gave it to my wife, and then she was high. Why would you do that to her after that happened to you? And I tricked her, too. I was like, try this chocolate, babe. So, you drugged your wife? Yes.
Starting point is 01:05:46 But it was... We don't recommend that, by the way was like, try this chocolate, babe. So you drugged your wife? Yes. But it was... We don't recommend that, by the way. No, we don't recommend that. But I told her what it was after, and she just thought it was a little piece of chocolate, so she took a little bite, and it had high dosage of THC in it. And when I say she was high, she was... We talk about it all the time. She was swimming on the actual carpet.
Starting point is 01:06:03 Like, she thought she was in the ocean and she was swimming. Why did you do that to her? I don't know, but she didn't talk to me for weeks because of that. And that was the first time that she's ever tried any type of drugs. So, and last. This is a terrible story, by the way. Please don't anyone ever do that to anybody that you care about or anyone, period. Please don't.
Starting point is 01:06:20 But anyway, the one story was I got edible and I got to work and I could not complete a sentence. I was laughing. Everything was funny to me. I was crying. It was the worst thing ever. Worst thing ever. Now, what about you? You ever got high at work?
Starting point is 01:06:37 High at work a couple of times. Yeah, one time we were doing lip service with Wiz Khalifa and I smoked some of that Khalifa Kush. As a matter of fact, the two times I was high at work was because of Wiz Khalifa and I smoked some of that Khalifa Kush. As a matter of fact, the two times I was high at work was because of Wiz Khalifa. Nice, Wiz. Now that I think about it, one time was at Powerhouse at the concert and I smoked a little bit and the thing about his weed is that after
Starting point is 01:06:55 like two pulls, it's over for you. And I'm not like a heavy smoker at all. I might smoke like, take a couple pulls every couple months. I'm not super into it. I'm more likely to do an edible or something. And it was, I couldn't feel my legs when I was doing lip service. And he was there. I was so nervous.
Starting point is 01:07:12 I was like, I'm glad I didn't drive anywhere. And I was in the car going home just trying to be quiet. Goodness gracious. Well, let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this? Hey, my name's Allison. Allison, we're talking about your high stories at work. What happened with you?
Starting point is 01:07:24 Well, there was this one time I used to be a supervisor at Wawa. And you know how you have to make sandwiches and all that. So I used to go in the dumpsters, like near the dumpsters with my coworkers, and we'd smoke. So this one time I was really, really hungry, and I ended up making a sandwich for one of the customers. And I actually ate his sandwich by accident because I thought I was going to eat it for myself. Oh, yeah, you were high. That's hilarious. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:50 100%. You were definitely high. That's funny. Oh, yeah, it was so much fun. Wawa's the greatest. All right, thank you, Mama. He was like, but that's my sandwich. Was it a good sandwich?
Starting point is 01:08:01 She made it, so I'm sure it was good. Hello, who's this? It's Shane, man. I'm calling from California, San Diego. Oh, hey, Shane. We're talking about your high stories. High at work. You got one for us? Are you in the bathroom right now? No, no, no. I had to step outside with my kids.
Starting point is 01:08:15 Hey, but look, I'm flying from San Diego to Las Vegas, so I popped like three edibles. So I get on the plane, fall asleep, wake up. I get up and leave all my s*** on the plane, my laptop, all my iPhone. He just left. I'm like, damn, he just left. And I get dead.
Starting point is 01:08:30 Shout out to Frontier, though. They take my stuff back. But yeah, the edibles, man, they put you in a coma. He just got off the plane and left everything. You know what? I'm thinking about it, Yeet. It was another time, right? This is bad.
Starting point is 01:08:40 I was on a plane, and I was in Miami. Somebody gave me an edible, and I took the edible. This was a long time ago. And I ran on the wrong plane. I got on the wrong plane. Did they tackle you? They didn't tackle me. I got on the wrong plane.
Starting point is 01:08:54 Somebody was sitting in my seat. And I was like, yo, you in my seat. They weren't in your seat, by the way. I know. So I pulled my ticket out, and I'm like, look, this is my seat. They was like, no. This plane goes to Newark. You're going to LaGuardia. You're on the
Starting point is 01:09:06 wrong plane. And I had to turn around, take my bags out the thing and everything and walk off. And you know who was on that plane? Who? Maxwell was on that plane. Oh, and you already have a thing for Maxwell. I do not have a thing for Maxwell. This is, you have this whole thing like where Gia, that's her past,
Starting point is 01:09:22 Maxwell. And you know who else was on that plane? Don't ignore me. I'm ignoring you. What's her name? It used to be Kanye's artist. I can't think of her name. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:09:31 I love her to death, too. Estelle. Estelle. Sorry, Estelle. Estelle was on that plane, too. And Estelle, they were laughing at me as I walked off. I felt so bad. Sheesh.
Starting point is 01:09:41 Well, I did have an experience, too, when I was in San Francisco and I had a couple of edibles. They tasted delicious, too. They were like these little watermelon gummies. And I went to the hotel room and my key didn't work and I was with Paris and I just sat on the floor outside the room and went to sleep. Outside the room? I just was too tired to walk
Starting point is 01:09:56 back down and get the key. She actually had to have them come bring the key up to the room. My goodness. 800-585-1051. We're talking about your worst edible stories. We were talking about your worst edible stories. We were talking about it at work, but it went everywhere with it. Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:10:08 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about high at work stories. Now, this came from Miami Heat's basketball player. What happened with him, Yee? Yes, he actually took some edibles and after that he
Starting point is 01:10:25 was unconscious on the plane and they had to take him to the hospital. Alright. Now he's suspended for how many games now? Ten games. Goodness gracious. So we're asking 800-585-1051. We're talking about your high stories at work. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 01:10:43 What up? This your girl Dee from Norfolk, Virginia. Oh, boy. What you do? What you do, Dee? Hi. So I work at a daycare company. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:10:53 Hold on, hold on. It's not a bad thing. So I took an edible the night before, and it was still hitting when I got to work the next morning. So I got to work. I was playing with the kids. I was going down the slide. We made like a whole Bob Marley One Love low paint and jank with their hands. It was like red, yellow, and green to embrace all cultures and everything.
Starting point is 01:11:15 I got like 86 customer compliments that day. Like, edibles at work always ain't a bad thing. You feel what I'm saying? Yes, it is. Yeah, when it comes to kids, you don't go to work high, man. Now stop that now. And maybe you thought you got compliments, but really you didn't. No, that was legit.
Starting point is 01:11:31 That was documented. Everybody was like, we love the painting. The kids had a great time. So did you ever do it again on purpose? No, no. That was definitely an accident. That was definitely an accident. I would have called out if we weren't short, sir. Thank you, D.
Starting point is 01:11:46 Hello, who's this? Oh, hi. My name's Natasha. Natasha. Now, we're talking about being high at work. You got a story for us? Yes. Okay. So, it was a long time ago and it was me and my best friend at work. We used to work at this, like, nitrogen ice cream place, you know,
Starting point is 01:12:01 where, like, they have the liquid ice cream and you freeze it to order. Yeah. So my friend came by and she's like, oh, I have these brownies. So we're like, all right, cool. So we take it and we're like, this isn't really doing anything. So as we're doing it, as we're taking it, we're like, all right, you know what? Let's just smoke a little bit more.
Starting point is 01:12:19 And we're like, you know what? This brownie sucks. Like we haven't felt it at all. And then all of a sudden we're like making these know what? This brownie sucks. Like, we haven't felt it at all. And then all of a sudden, we're, like, making these ice creams for these people. And this huge gallon of liquid ice cream falls on the floor. And it, like, hits us. And we just start cracking up in front of all these people. And they're all just looking at us.
Starting point is 01:12:35 And we're just laughing and laughing and laughing. And then from then on, it was just, like, nonstop. Like, we couldn't even work. My goodness. It was just way too intense. My goodness. Stay off the even work. My goodness. It was just way too intense. My goodness. Stay off the edibles. I know.
Starting point is 01:12:47 You just never know how it's going to hit either or how long it's going to last. Yeah, you don't know. All of a sudden, you're like, this doesn't work. And then all of a sudden, it hits you and it's like 10 times more than you thought it would be. That's the trick. I think people take it and be like, man, this is whack. I'm going to take more. And then when they take that more, it's a wrap.
Starting point is 01:13:02 I had a situation with Mayno where I actually gave him some edibles that someone close to me made for him. And he said he couldn't leave the house for two days because he kept taking them, even though he was told only to take one. Yeah, your brother's edibles is dumb strong. Envy, I just had someone close to me because I didn't want to say who it was. Oh, sorry. Oh, my God. Hello, who's this? Idiot.
Starting point is 01:13:24 It's RJ. RJ, good Oh, sorry. Oh, my God. Hello, who's this? Idiot. It's RJ. RJ, good morning, man. We're talking about edibles and being high at work. You got a story for us, bro? Oh, yeah. I do top flight security at arenas and all that, and I've been backstage, and when that secondhand high hits in, you realize
Starting point is 01:13:40 you're in a whole different world. You see bodyguards and different girls every night, and that's a real lifestyle for them. And I'll tell you what, I was backstage, two different artists, 2 Chainz and Snoop Dogg. I don't know what kind of weed
Starting point is 01:13:50 they were smoking, but that stuff was so strong, I felt like I snorted pepper spray. It was that. My gosh. So you were doing, you were doing your top flight security? Of the world, Craig.
Starting point is 01:14:04 He had a good time, though. Oh, hell yeah. My goodness. All right. Well, what's the moral of the story? Don't get high at work? Is that the moral of the story? The moral of the story is to control your high.
Starting point is 01:14:17 Make sure you're in a good environment. You're amongst people. Don't do that-ish at work, okay? All right. Now, you just called me an idiot, right? And I'm just going to tell you something, right? You idiot. This is a funny story. So Jackson, my son, comes in the room last night, right? And he called you an idiot too.
Starting point is 01:14:32 No, he's depressed, right? You said he's depressed? He looks depressed. I'm like, what's the matter? He's like, I said a bad word. I'm like, well, what did you say? He was like, I don't want to say. I'm like, tell me what you said. He says, I said idiot. I said, who did you call an idiot? He was like, I don't want to say. I'm like, tell me what you said. He says, I said idiot. I said, who did you call an idiot? He was like, my toy.
Starting point is 01:14:48 I said, why did you call your toy an idiot? He said, because it accidentally fell and hit me in my mouth. So I was like, idiot. And I was like, I felt bad for saying it. I wanted to laugh so hard. I wanted to laugh so hard. I was like, don't use that word. And when he walked out the room, I was dying.
Starting point is 01:15:04 He probably walked out and was like, idiot. He probably walked out and was like, idiot. He probably walked out and was like, idiot. My dad's an idiot. All right, we got rumors on the way? Yes, we didn't even get to this story yet. Alicia Keys and her son, he wanted to experiment with something, but he was concerned about trolls as he was trying to express himself. We'll tell you how she handled it.
Starting point is 01:15:23 All right, we'll do that when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Alicia Keys. Listen up. It's just
Starting point is 01:15:40 the end. All the gossip. The rumor report. Angela Yee. It's the rumor report. The Rumor Report. It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, Alicia Keys went on social media and she was discussing how her son wanted to express himself. And she posted, less labels, more expressions. Been thinking about how over-labeled and over-judged we all are.
Starting point is 01:15:59 Can you feel me? And here's what she said. The other day, I went to the nail salon with Genesis. He's in the chair and he's like, I want rainbow. And she brings all of these colors, and she paints each nail a different color. And after he painted his nails, he looked at me and said, Mommy, I don't want this on my nails. People are not going to like it.
Starting point is 01:16:17 He's four. And I told him, why? Who cares what anybody else says? And so I said, plus, you know, a lot of guys paint their nails. He was like, really? And that made him feel better. But it just got me to thinking how completely judged we are. I mean, I agree with her. I mean, the fact that her son wants to paint his nails, whatever color he wants to paint his nails and be free.
Starting point is 01:16:37 I think we should allow our kids to be free. There should be no labels. I agree with that. You wouldn't mind your sons painting their nails, right? No, I wouldn't care. Right. A lot of guys I know paint their nails, and it's just an expression. It's not like that serious.
Starting point is 01:16:49 I mean, I wouldn't say, hey, let's go paint our nails, but if he wanted to go paint his nails, I wouldn't have a problem with it. It's like a rock star thing. Correct. I wouldn't have a problem with it all. I don't paint my nails, but I wouldn't have a problem with it. All right. Now, Lil' Kim, she says that John Singleton wanted to actually do her biopic before he passed away. She was on The Real, and here's what she said.
Starting point is 01:17:10 When John Singleton was alive, right, Tom Cruise and Katy Perry used to do these parties. So him and I went. He was like, I want you to be my celebrity date. But I knew what that meant. He wants to talk. He said, Kim, why are we doing this movie? He's like, you're a walking bestseller. And I was like, well, I was waiting for you. If I did a movie about my life, I'm not doing it with anybody but you okay and then he passed
Starting point is 01:17:27 away yeah but I know so many people would want to hear your story yeah yeah yeah in some way please bring that to fruition cuz yeah millions and millions of yeah I would love to see a little Kim bio I can't wait I mean right just everything she's been through in this industry how she got her start a relationship with Big, then, you know, the shooting at the other station, and everything. I would love to see all of that.
Starting point is 01:17:52 Absolutely, positively, I would be in to see that. And she's always seemed like the sweetest person. She is. Like, just, I don't know her that well, but every time I've seen her, she's had great energy and been really sweet, so. Yeah. Little Kim. Alright, now, Kodak Black is gonna be sentenced this week, and it's scheduled for Wednesday, so Kim. All right, now Kodak Black is going to be sentenced this week and is scheduled for Wednesday. So, he's been in jail since he was arrested
Starting point is 01:18:10 just ahead of his Rolling Loud Miami Festival performance. And so now we're going to find out what is going to happen with him. He was arrested on federal firearms charges and he did not go to trial. He pleaded guilty instead. And then later he changed his plea deal on August 22nd. So, they're saying he's facing between four and 20 years in prison. Goodness gracious.
Starting point is 01:18:28 Yeah. So we'll see on Wednesday what's going to happen. Now, Dave East also has a song on his album called Survival featuring Little Baby. On his album Survival featuring Little Baby, it's called Night Shift. And according to Dave East, he actually removed Kodak Black from that song, from the album. So I guess. Did he say why? Well, it was because of his disrespectful remarks about Lauren London.
Starting point is 01:18:51 Oh, and him and Nipsey were cool. Yeah, I get it. That's smart. I get it. Yeah. So, yeah, you kind of got to ride with your peoples on that. So I feel you on that. I can't put you on my album and represent for you.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Me and Nipsey was really super cool. Absolutely. All right. Now, Drake was performing at Tyler, the and Nipsey was really super cool. Absolutely. Drake was performing at Tyler, the Creator's Camp Flognaw Festival and he was a surprise performer, right? And people were looking for somebody
Starting point is 01:19:14 else though. Now, who is bigger than Drake at this point in time? Looking for now? Jay-Z maybe? Well, apparently they said, one Twitter person said, so the crowd at Camp Flogna Booed Drake, Uzi, and Rocky Off stage because
Starting point is 01:19:28 They were mad The surprise guest wasn't Frank Ocean Is that crazy? So wait a minute So they booed Drake Because they wanted Frank Ocean?
Starting point is 01:19:38 Here it is Listen to this Like I said I'm here for you tonight If you wanna keep going I will keep going tonight What's up? Frank! If you wanna keep, I will keep going tonight. What's up? Frank!

Starting point is 01:20:01 We want Frank! Wow, what festival was this? I told you, this was Tyler, the Creator's Flagnor Festival. Tyler, the Creator's. Okay, I get it. I understand now. Yeah, that's his people's. That's his camp.
Starting point is 01:20:11 So I guess it makes sense, but that was still shocking to me. How would you feel if you drank? You're the biggest artist out right now. You got smash hits. You got numerous... You got championship rings. Platinum albums and singles. You go to perform and they
Starting point is 01:20:28 boo you? But he did his whole performance in all fairness. I guess they thought that some way, somehow, Frank Ocean was gonna at some point come out. Because he is very elusive. So maybe they thought this is gonna be the time. And I'm sure he understood. Because it was also the affiliation. That would hurt my pride a little bit. In fact, I go out
Starting point is 01:20:44 I'm one of the biggest artists right now and they start hitting me with the boo. Yeah, that would hurt my pride a little bit. In fact, I go out, I'm one of the biggest artists right now, and they start, when they hit me with the boo, yeah, that would hurt. I'm sure he'll be okay. Yeah. All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. Let me say happy birthday to my Aunt V and Aunt Carolyn. Their birthday was yesterday.

I was on Twitter and I was talking about how I booked everybody's flights, everybody's rooms, all this transportation for five people because it's the ladies from lip service and it's our makeup artist Sandra Dean. And then I've been doing this whole run of show, booking guests, booking DJs and then doing the morning
Starting point is 01:22:03 show on top of all that and taking care of my own side businesses. So it's been like non-stop. I've never been this busy in my life in the course of three weeks. So you're doing a lot, but getting it done? Getting it done, and I can't wait to come home and relax for two seconds. Alright, well this weekend
Starting point is 01:22:19 on Sunday, I'm going to be out in Atlanta. You know, I do my real estate seminars where I teach our community how to get into real estate. I bring credit repair, conventional hard money lending, agents, attorneys, and of course me and my brother Cesar. And we try to break it down just to try to encourage and get people to get into real estate and to own something. So we do that this Sunday in Atlanta. And then I'm doing my last one, which is December 15th in New York at the Jacob Javis Center, which I'm very excited about. I've been to car shows there, seminars
Starting point is 01:22:48 there, so the fact that I'm actually doing one at the Jacob Javis Center is really, really big.

Starting point is 01:23:04 I know you did a deal in Brooklyn and you're making a lot of money. So I'm happy for you. Yes, I actually bought a condo and then I'm trying to figure out if the person that rented it is paid the whole entire year up front. So I'm like,
Starting point is 01:23:16 do I put all that toward the mortgage or do I just take that money, invest it in, and just pay the mortgage every month? But I hate owing money. So the idea of having that like looming over my head, it bothers me. Yeah, knowing you and the way that you shop, I think if you just pay the mortgage every month. But I hate owing money. So the idea of having that like looming over my head, it bothers me.
Starting point is 01:23:26 Yeah, knowing you and the way that you shop, I think you should just pay it off because the amount of bags, clothes, and shoes you have come and sent to my house, I think you should just pay it off. Now you have some nerve talking about buying bags and shoes and cars. Okay.
Starting point is 01:23:41 I didn't say it's not about me. It's about you. All right. When we come back positive. Look in th. All right. When we come back positive. Look in thine own mirror. When we come back positive, notice the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, everybody.
