Hold on. Every day I wake up. Wake your ass up. The breakfast club. We're all finished or y'all's done? Morning, everybody. It's DJ NV. Just hilarious.

Shalamey and the guy. We are the breakfast club. La Rosa is here as well. And we got some special guests in the building. Yes, indeed. We got Claudia Jordan. She's back. Welcome back.

Hey. Good to be back. See murder. Erica Cobb, host of Accidentally Informed Podcast. Welcome, ladies. Good to see you, fan. What's up, y'all? Good morning. How are you?

I'm tired. I haven't had sleep in a few weeks. Why? Because I'm like really busy. We're doing this podcast. I got a movie coming out. There's a premiere tonight. Well, there's a premiere in New York.

So a lot, a lot going on. Amazing. So where do we start? You want to start the podcast, the movie? Yeah. Podcast. Okay. Podcast.

Claudia got a lot going on. Good. Good. That's what that. Accidentally informed. Yes. The name is great for the timing of everything that happened in the media right now. How did you guys come up with the name and why?

Erica came to Dallas to reach out to me and she said, you know when people say, I need to talk to you about something? That automatically triggers me. I'm like, what fuck did I do? And then she's like, no, I have a proposal. I want to do, I want to work with you. And it just came about. And the accidentally informed title is about, you know, we kind of focus on politics a lot

in like social issues. But no one wants to hear that. So I wanted to be entertaining where you are accidentally informed in the process of being entertained. Yeah, I think there was this clip that when I was doing my daytime talk show, a Daily Blast Live, that went viral about people at the top collaborate, people at the bottom compete.

And I thought that that was just a platitude that most people understood. But I thought that this was a really great time to put that in action. My manager, shout out to Giselle. said to me, you know, you had Claudia on your podcast because I do come back as well. And you guys have such great banter. And I was like, yeah, because we have very similar backstories.

She did radio as well. We both hosted television shows. And we have very diverse demographics for being two black women. And so working with her, it just all kind of accidentally came together. But it's been great. And she's so well-spoken. Yes, she is. She's the classy one.

And y'all know me. You're classy too. When I talk, though, I get it. You got a balance, ratchet, righteous. Exactly. I'm going to get in trouble a lot, though. You know what I mean? Like, I've been canceled like 20 times.

That's fun, though. And even with her being ratchet, righteous, did you ever think about it like, oh my gosh? I don't know. Did you have any hesitation? Or were you just like all in with it? You know, I have spent my entire career in ensembles from radio to television.

And no one ever has a problem with diversity when it comes to gender or socioeconomic or race but for some reason when we talk about two black women in the same space that tends to bring up some issues on internalized issues that we like to talk about sorry what did you just say so I can get smart enough I said what you want I have a real thing happening right now that was crazy I have a real thing happening right now it is no disrespect to you I have a life thing happening right now wow but please because I just need a reason to get more if you need to

You just have to step out if you need to. Not yet. I might have two in like 10 minutes. Okay. Well, sending you love. Thank you. Just for everything to work out. Don't send her no love after she wasn't listening to you.

No, it's, I, you know, it is. It's a reason why. If you want someone in here who doesn't pay attention or care or listen to black women, it's typically him. Oh, wow. Let's get it. Oh, are you not listening to, I know what? Erica, welcome. Welcome.

I will say there. It gets spicy here. Mieselman go back so so that he called me C murder. That's a nickname from, like, my space, right? I texted him the other day saying that. the day saying that I have a huge movie coming I would love to invite him what he do he hit me with a don't really know you I never got her he never returned my head I didn't see a movie you kind of got little hollywood on me yeah right number

did you change a number and I have not changed my number I have not we go way back wow look at him so the bug you were saying you didn't even know what she was saying black with each other she was gonna no I think it's a really it's a really it's an It's an important time for these conversations. It's an important time to really, like, check ourselves. What is it about what's happening in society right now that we're so much harder on ourselves than anyone else could be? So I just think that this has been the perfect opportunity for us to work together. She kind of, when she goes left, she brings me a little bit with her.

And then I can, like, bring her a little bit with me on the side and we just respect that balance. I love the balance. Why y'all choose to do the show live, which I think is great. I think that's like, that's something that a lot of podcasts are going to start doing live, you know, like, renditions of it, but why live all the time? The energy is just different when you go live, you know what I mean? And also, like, we want to be more interactive with the listeners, you know what I mean, like see what they're saying and kind of respond in real time, what they're saying.

I always love to go live. That makes you feel like you're on the radio. It does. Absolutely. Yeah. Now, Claude, are you going to be around to do this? Because you go everywhere. Like, is she going to be in one spot to take this weekly live?

No, no. She said, no. We're remote. We're remote. Okay. Yeah, and Claudia is seriously, that was another reason why I wanted to work with her. When she says she's going to do something, she's going to do it. And I think that a lot of, especially for people who are in the creative spaces,

you're looking around at people around you thinking, we have a really, we have the chemistry, we have something great, but you need somebody who is going to work as hard as you're going to work. And she brings, she's a producer at heart and a talent. And I told her, like, I have a production company. Come Back TV Presents is our production company. I was like, we will wrap ourselves around you in order to amplify what you do so well. And she's the star of our show, to be quite honest.

Like, she is. And then I play that support. And I love doing that. She's a good friend. She really is. So what's the topics for this week? Like, what would y'all be discussing this week? Well, this started after the election.

So it was definitely catered to the 92%. So that was kind of like the spirit of it So it could be anything like that's relationship It could be politics, it could be hot topics It's a little bit of everything Kind of like the view I guess And what would you guys do as well? Similar, you know?

Like it's just good conversations I found like when we were doing it We were recording it before doing Evergreen That didn't resonate because people At the end of the day People say they want elevated conversations But it's always a celebrity gossip That gets all the hits

Unfortunately and you know It's like that kind of frustrates me sometimes Don't nobody want to hear y'all be smart Which I think is crazy Right It frustrates you that people want the gossip or that people will frustrate you about that? That's what seems to resonate with the masses more than anything. Well, that's what the blogs pick up, right?

That's what the blogs pick up. That's what gets the most attention. But everyone claims, no, we don't want that. Like, they say they don't want messy reality TV, but the messy ones are the ones that get the clicks. Right. That gets the views and that gets funded. So people say they want that positivity. But when Tia and Tamara had a show and it was all positive, did you see the support?

Like, it should have been? No, it wasn't. They say that because it sounds good. It sounds good to say, oh, we want elevated conversations. We're sick of the same type of thing, same rhetoric. Do y'all have a guest? Yeah. Yeah, that's really been a big bonus for us, especially because the guest that Claudia's been

able to book have been very timely, so it's nice to, because we do our rundowns that morning. So we'll go through all the topics, and they're all trending topics. And then the other great thing about it is we have the ability to just use some of these trending topics as like touch points like this is what the story is really about and it's about these people but really we can apply this to ourselves we can apply this to society and that helps out a lot I think doing it live is really it's such a gift that people in this room probably don't even think about anymore because you're masters at this craft but live is not organic for everyone and if that's a value proposition for us we definitely need to lean into it and

That's what we've chosen to do. Who's been your favorite guest? Oh, gosh, I can't pick a favorite one. Okay, I'll say that who stands out to me is Angela Oakley because I didn't realize we had so much in common. We went to the same university at the same time. I love her. Where'd you go? DePaul University.

Okay. Yeah. So that was surprising. I really enjoyed her. I love having the speaker, minority speaker, Hakein Jeffries. Because, you know, I'm a political nerd. Like, I love talking politics. Charlemagne hates him.

You do? I don't hate him. to answer anything. I think that he's, I call him Apex Shakur. Well, we did talk about messaging and I actually went to the Capitol

and had a meeting with him and we talked about messaging and how I was like the frustration with the party is y'all have to get more gangsta. Like stop going by the politics of the late 2000s in 2010 and you have to

like rise to the occasion in the messaging and he did I saw him do more afterwards. Akeem is a puppet. Hakeem's not doing anything if Shuck's your one don't tell him to do it and as simple as that. But I did it.

I was very happy that he came on our little podcast, though. Oh, yeah. Because we can, like, have these conversations. And I feel like, you know, a lot of people don't press these folks. You know what I mean? And we do. And we need to do that. We need to be pressing all of them.

Envy was, he came in here talking about one of the topics y'all talked about on July 4th. About how you know. Some guy, they're right. How America raised 59th in average manhood side. Oh, you saw that. No, Envy bought it to my attention. Oh, I brought it up. What did it say it again?

I didn't hear you. Wait from our show? Yes. What did I say? We had the rankings of the penis sizes. What are you talking about? He's going to try. He didn't talk about that.

He was like, you know, America ranks 50-9th in penis size, and I'm like. So what did you think? I didn't know. I was like, thank you for the fun factor. Judge on the penises as y'all have seen. What do y'all think? The what? I've only seen mine.

First of all, are we going to go there again? We've already discussed this show of him. We've already gone here before. Damn, you say that shit like you just know. That's a goddamn lie. You see mine. Shut up. Wait a minute.

Still? Lauren, Jeff. Still? They still on the shit. If you don't like him to do that, he threw bodies on you. He ain't like that, did you? I'm ignoring him. What intrigued you about that topic?

I don't even know what topic you're talking about. Play stupid. I did do a ranking of, yeah, where I said America's are really arrogant, especially where they stand on the penis scale. I use the word penis, penile a lot. Yeah, she, for a while, we couldn't get past the show without her saying penile, penis, penis. It's from my time on the breakfast club.

She is literally a female. Penile sounds like when you are in denial about having a small penis. Who was number one? Look at you. Where do you want to go? Where do y'all think it's a lot? What if you see to be another one? She said in your travel, what do you think is number one?

It was like a Latin country. Damn. Don't you have a... I do, but yeah, it's, you know, half of him black. Oh, okay. Yeah. This conversation... Nigeria was up there, too, as well.

It would. Nigeria, but America is doing really poorly. Damn. I think the president took us down because they, you know, according to Storm of Daniels, it's very small. Damn. Did I talk about her love life as well? Because she's not, she's been...

It's still, still. Shut up lying. Still, Claudia? I have not had sex in 2025. Yes. January, February Marching. One person in two years and that was like a long time ago. I feel like it's an energy directive thing.

I don't care anymore. She, it's something... She had a nice guy here in the city that she was seeing. That she was seeing. and then that didn't go. Oh, because when he lost his job, he became a little bitch. Damn.

Well, you can't call a guy a bitching and expect it. Okay. He felt bad and he took it out on you. No, he just, I, let me not say a bitch, that's kind of rude. But it changed the dynamic in our relationship. And I felt like it was at a time where I was working a lot and it was like not good for him. Yeah.

So that is going to put a strain. And y'all ladies know, when you're, like, when things are really busy and your man is not feeling good about himself, it definitely hurts the relationship. Absolutely. Yeah, not everybody. And I understood what he was coming from, like, and I try. But if you don't feel good about yourself, there's nothing that I could do.

I probably shouldn't have just called me. And you're not even that type. Like, you ain't got no money. No, I've never been like that. That's why I work so hard. So I will always have it. But he started taking it out on you because you were busy. So I get where your comment came from, although you didn't mean to say it like that.

But I get what you. That was kind of mean. So what do you tell about her love life? What do you tell about dating? Do you have those conversations? Yeah, I think, you know, well, it's an energy thing for me. If you're, she's very busy right now professionally, and that does take a toll on your love life. I think when I think about what has worked for me and not that I am an expert by any means.

She's married, though, happily married. Oh, I see. Yeah. I've been married for nine years. Oil and gas money. Yeah. And yeah. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. So, you know, look. You just need her as such love. Texas? No. He's Canadian. Maybe I am, my husband is a white man from Canada just to get that out of the way. There we go.

I'm okay. I'm okay with him being upset. We should get him on. How did you meet? How did you meet? We met through a mutual friend and, yeah, she was a friend of mine. She ended up working for him and she introduced us. We've been together ever since.

He ain't got no friends for floating? That's what, that's the thing, because she's at Listen, I feel like everyone's trying to fix me. I'm good where I'm at right now. Honestly, this is a, like, but I feel like, you know, but it's like, everyone's like, well, we need it. No, I am very happy right now. I have had no drama in two years, you guys.

I have that's amazing. You know, what are you? Yeah, she's definitely been glowing. But what if you met a man that didn't bring you drama? Would you be open to that? Does one exist? Yes, one does exist. I do think that you need someone.

I'm thinking industry leader for you. but like an industry outside of entertainment I just I feel like like now I feel like I've kind of a little bit made a mistake by going so long because when you get to a certain point it's almost like fasting like the first few days is terrible but then when you get to a certain point it's like it almost it's like good like you're like no I'm good it's very easy now and it's like the person's going to have to be I don't like a lot of people I just don't like relationship wise friends yes but relationship wise a lot of things like of you the spelling the being ignorant

I just can't do it The missing side teeth The issues Oh I was broken up I have our heart broken in ninth grade So now it's like fuck bitches For the rest of my life Like I'm not giving you therapy

At this age Like I'm not fixing anyone I think black women in particular Especially we feel like we have to fix And save the world And it is exhausting and I'm not doing it anymore So the odds of finding someone That's healed

That goes to therapy that's attractive are tough is out there probably but I don't I just I don't want people to think every time I talk about this I'm pressed I'm lonely I can't get a man if y'all think I can't get a man you're bugging I can get a man it's someone that inspires me that I want I don't want just anyone what you did outside your race no I want a black man does your husband have black friends my husband does have black friends but every time we do it to friends every time we do The only thing she needs to hang with you with your husband.

You look so happy. But I have, she has no sense. And the ring is blinging and all the things. Every time I come with, though, a lot of lesbians hit me up in my DMs on the show. I know they're coming. Would you date outside of your gender? No.

Jolmaine. I love my lesbian supporters, but no, I want a black man. He's so stupid. He ain't even mean to say that. He's so damn down. But you know, another thing about outside of gender, it's just gone, right. Like, a lesbian's not a woman's now.

I meant sexuality. But she responded, though, because she knew what you mean. She knew what I meant. I bet sexuality. I'm sorry. We, like, exactly what you made? He wanted you to be with a trans woman crying.

I'm like, what would you say that? Never mind, nothing. Anyway. A lot of them, they are big supporters of the breakfast club, and they find myself, those people, and the people that you put out for me to do only fans with my goddamn feet, they're still, like, trying to ask me to do that.

Thank you, Charlotte. Somebody just tweeted me about you as, Give me to tell you to put your feet on. Well, he had the, Envy had a page to them. I did not have a page. What's your page? No, somebody would take pictures of my feet every time I, and they'd made it only.

What? Wait, how? Again, why do you have feet on your feet? No, if I'm at the beach with my family, they'll take just my feet and both. I'm so sorry, I'm gonna have to support you on this. All the time. I will have to support you on this

because I found out that I have a website that has my feet on it as well. Can we see your feet? Are they nice? Really? Is Erica Coffey? They probably can. There's some person who are. I am.

Are they nice? I think they're nice. My wife thinks they're nice. But you can Google my feet. So all the main things stay nice, but. Oh, my God, here we go again. Is it Wikifeet.com? It's something about, like, women and media.

So it's showing like, it's like boots, shoes. Wow. Yeah, I used to do our fitness competitions. Yes. Yeah. What are you used to binge, Erica? I hate me out. Yeah, I was very into fitness competitions for four or five years.

I was such a good friend too. I'm so glad we're working together. My birthday happened in April and they hooked me up. We went to Vegas. She had like high photographers spent all this money and like just like made it so like you're a real one. You really are. Well, you are too. I appreciate them.

You know what I noticed. And then also in getting in old Claudia over the years, right, what I noticed is you got to know how to take a joke to. Hold on how many conversations you're having over there. I don't know what they're doing in the back of the class I'm sorry and they're very rude right now I don't know what they don't I'm sorry right so right so what I've noticed about Claudia is yeah you she also needs somebody that's going to take a joke right too because she a little comedians too she will ghost your ass whether you are mad or not yes I'm the same way and you got to be able to come back with it she don't like nobody is going to get a personal email and all that extra that's that's what I like even my friends like I feel like in my family that's how my family was yeah like no one was like no one was a professional comedian, but walking into the family reunion, like, whoever you brought was going to get roasted by grandma. And my aunt, like, they talk shit.

Like, before you're even in the house, they're like, oh, look how big his head is, and they just talk shit. Oh, they clown your job. Like, they don't care. But that's how they show love. Like, we weren't a mushy. I love you, hugging you type of family. Like, they roast you, but that's like, no one else can roast you. It's like, the family can do it.

Yeah, but she's really good about that because I've definitely made some jokes on the podcast about her. Yeah. She told me she had a big makeover and she revealed to me that she used to have really big gums and so do have big gums no you know you hooked it up you worked it out you picked it up hey yo she did okay she got a mustache big gums i did not a mustache how do you have surgery on your gums there you go lord now you have the journalist here now what you had them burned right burned yeah that's a different type of money right there so i read it a hyper so it's a thing

Hyper-Mobile upper lip. A lot of people have this. And what they'll do is they'll flip the gum, they'll chisel the bone, and then they do an actual laser so that you get, like, what I have now. Yeah. And so then I got veneers because that's what happened.

Well, you're super freaking beautiful. She's so pretty, though. Yeah, she is. Look her doll face. Like, she was like a little doll. You all beautiful. I had no idea you could do that, and there's a lot of people who need some gun reduction surgery.

I know. I'm kind of thinking about, definitely some celebrity that's like a lot of, like heavy on the gums, light on the teeth. I went to someone, yeah, and I went to someone who had done a few black anchors. And so I knew that this was something that. Erica, let's, I need you to come onto the dark side.

Who, what, who would you say needs it? What public figure needs to say? I was Google. Claudia, I know, that's why I actually was you hesitant a little bit about doing your podcast. She messed, messy, messy. And what about the mustache?

What, like, was that a mustache circuit? I'm so, no, no, that's fucked up. And that should have been the obvious person. That should have been the obvious person. That should have been the obvious person. Let me see, it's, um, stop. I know it's like on the tip of my tongue. Don't do, don't do it.

That's the homie, too. No, no. That's obvious. I just go, oh. I go go on celebrities with big guns and that whole list came up. I'm not participating in that. I'm not participating in that. I am not saying.

I'm not saying it. I'm not saying it. I can say that it's a terrible room, man. Oh, wow. Look at all the podcast. We started off. It was no energy. It was quiet.

It was like, you have a podcast. Talk shit about people's gums and look at the energy. They're going to see this and be like, I know they're talking about me. How about this? You know who you are. Watch. How are you, like making jokes and talking about stuff with your friends? How do you pick and choose where you don't go?

She go everywhere! It was on you recently about the Tracy Edminster. Why, though? Because people felt like if that is your, friend why bring the conversation to a public class because I do commentary for a living like they retarded are they retarded I'm sorry no I'm from the East Coast like the way Eminem said that the way I say that don't mean that it don't mean that it doesn't mean that I'm not making for mentally challenged like clinically you know diagnosed people that is

like you're slow retardation means to slow down a fire retardant what does that do Slows it down. Slows it down. So some people are slow. You are the great balance between righteous and rights. You sure. I love how you brought that. It's the perfect matter, though.

Mostly ratchet, though. I did like that. Oh, my gosh. That's right. It's going to be the accurate podcast in a minute. Yeah, how do you know where to go? And also, too, I'm interested to know when you do go there, do you have a conversation with your friends prior?

Like, it... Um, I know my friends really well. All my friends on my life for, like, 20 year, 10, year, 50. I already know their triggers. Like, there's things that I'm a vault about that will never get repeated. If I, if you tell you tell, tell me something like that I know was a real trigger for you. I would never go there.

It's things that I know like you're okay with. You know what I'm saying? And as far as that Tracy thing, I just want to say this. Anyone that knows me knows I am a girl's girl. I'm a girl's girl and I ride hard for the people that I rock with. Even Jess, I was about to fight her ex-boyfriend before, okay, on television. And I'm so happy, you're so happily married. Thank you so much.

I will be sending him a DM with your wedding picture. Period. Thank you. Were you mad at Carucci? No, I like Carucci. This is a thing. I was my the greater conversation once again on our show like you use a celebrity story for the the intro into the topic but it's really about life situations I was saying I think more women should have conversations with each other before getting mad like Tracy approached the saw her out they know each other and she asked her like impact like hey is it true and that's that I think it's very much

they're still dating at the time but they still together they weren't but if you think after 12 years that it was cut like I think she would I think Tracy was actually being respectful right right Read between the lines here, ladies and gentlemen. Like, she was like, are you? Because if you are, blah, blah, blah, you know what I'm saying? So I just feel like more women should approach the woman in a calm way before they get angry and go on social media. And she shared that conversation with me. And I did ask her, I said, if I mentioned it,

but I would keep some parts to myself, she's like, I'm okay with it because I told her the bigger picture I'm trying to convey, women need to stop being mad at each other when these things happen. Be grown, there's nothing wrong with having a conversation. And the way people took it that Tracy was pressed, You must still want him. It's none of her business.

And they were trying to qualify it with like, well, they weren't good friends. I don't think you need to be a good friend of someone to give another fellow black woman or woman a heads up. We got to, what does it harm me to say? Actually, yeah, we are. That's good context of what you gave to it. Because I didn't even know that you had a question with it.

Like the, what a, of course not. I didn't know, all I thought was the headline. You came back to clarify it too after. Yeah, but no one posts the clarification, right? Yeah. They want the click bait. Oh, message. asked Claudia is running and then you throw

Karuchi's name and Tracy's name and then Deion Sanders name it's going to be a hot topic and listen I'm not new to this I understand that I knew when I said it was going to be a problem but like the goal is you hope that they will go back and watch accidents informed watch the whole conversation but really because people are

the R word they don't have a attention span anymore they want it in 15 seconds or less and they can't comprehend like a actual full throat Hello it's Daniel Official.

Well, it really depends on who you talk to. There are many versions of what happened in 1969 when a young Ted Kennedy drove a car into a pond. And left a woman behind to drown.

There's a famous headline, I think, in the New York Daily News, it's Teddy escapes, blonde drowns. And in a strange way, Right? That sort of tells you. The story really became about Ted's political future. Ted's political hopes. Will Ted become president? Chapiquitic is a story of a tragic death and how the Kennedy machine took control. And he's not the only Kennedy to survive a scandal. The Kennedys have lived through disgrace, affairs, violence, you name it. So is there a curse? Every week, we go behind the headlines and beyond the drama of America's royal family. Listen to United States of Kennedy on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you.

you get your podcast the conversation about it where there was nothing more I don't blame I'm not and Tracy's not mad at Karachi I love I think Karachi's dope I love that and you know and I it opened the gates to like a conversation maybe they weren't dating then maybe it grew into

something who knows but I think I love the fact that they had a grown conversation no one got mad no tables were flipped and what is wrong with encouraging that absolutely did Tracy reach out to you after the fact yeah she's like thank you for always having my back And she's like, and she's like, and she adores Carucci. Like, to the day, she's not mad at Carruci.

Curruci didn't steal Deion Sanders from Tracy. And I just want that to be clear. I don't put any fault on Carucci either. I don't. I just was saying I love that Tracy was on her grown woman. You never hear drama about Tracy. I love Tracy Evan. She's dope.

She does not celebrate Tracy Evan as enough as a coach. Classy girls, she was with us for the birthday celebration. She's so fun. Like, she's not. She could be boozy and snobby and a bitch, and she's not. Like, that girl is, like, so down-to-earth and cool as hell. Like, you would love hanging with her. Well, and also, when we got into what the foundation of this entire story was about,

it was about the idea how women are unintentionally supporting the patriarchy. By keeping these things close to the vest, like, that's not, that's in defense of men. And men are already being accused of not being transparent with what the intentions are. So why is women would we not want to be transparent with each other about what the intentions are? if you're continuing to keep things close to the vest, it's only helping what you're saying is destroying you. Damn. See how she says it so classic.

Yeah, like, she's like the cleanup after me. Like I just say that, and then she's like, well, actually, don't just say. But yeah, it wasn't, it just, it just really went left. And I just feel like, you know, we got to just have more of an attention span out here in these streets and listen to a whole conversation. And knowing that people only take what they take, right, because you know how this works. Why even attempt to clarify after this thing? I for some reason even after 30 years in this thing I still care what like I I care about being misunderstood

or misrepresented you know and I still do care so I will always clarify for the slow people in the back you know what I mean like in case you didn't The retards in the rear? Exactly. Oh no. Had the rear tarts. And mind you, how do we even find out about Carucci and maybe a possible Dion situation?

His son filmed it and put on social media. So why am I the messy one for commenting on something that y'all rolled out in the media. Like, it's amazing. I didn't sneak a camera in there and get the information that and blow up the spot.

That would be messy. But when I comment on things, you know, listen, if they like you, they're okay with your commentary. If they don't like you, it's a problem, you're messy. And guess what? I don't give a fuck.

Just watch it and click on it. I just feel like it's all fame or shame. It's all the same game. Like, it's the same. Fame or shame, it's all the same game. Fame or shame, it's all the same game. It's just where people are looking for this energy you're looking for attention.

And so when you're getting it, you don't get to choose necessarily how that attention, how that energy is going to come in what form. But ultimately, why are you here? Why are you on this platform? Like, what is the intentionality behind it? Channel that energy into what it is that you want because you're never going to be able to decide yourself if it's fame or if it's shame. I like that.

I like that. You did radio, right, Eric? Yes, I started in Chicago. at B-96 WBBM FM. Wow. Yeah, 20 years ago, like almost now. Oh, yeah, yeah. What made you get out of the radio business?

I didn't really, so I did morning radio. I did in Chicago, then I moved to Denver in Sacramento, and I realized that I needed to sharpen another skill set, have another tool in my arsenal as things shifted with radio. And that was really just kind of a national. Transition. I left radio in 2016. I said that I would do a talk show. I booked Daily Blast Live in 2017. And then that's been it, except for the last year where I've been the CEO of my own production company, Come Back TV Presents. You said you wanted to lean into more content when you left radio too. Do you feel like it's been more beneficial leaning into content versus being on the radio? Because I had the opposite experience. Explain that. So for me, like when I,

Being here at the breakfast club, I've been able to do things I've never experienced when I was making content on social, but I was also working for Team Zee who produces content every single day. So I didn't think that radio would do that for me. But when I read your story, you basically said, radio is dying out. I need to go do what's of the now, which is go create content. And you've been able to be successful or have you felt like it was beneficial for you? I felt like all of it has been to my benefit. For you, Lauren, and I'm very proud of you. because what you're talking about takes a sense of self-starting that a lot of people don't have.

You were a content creator before and you didn't have the opportunities that you have now, but you see those opportunities to create content. So it's a little different because sometimes people end up in these roles, whether it could really be any role. And they don't have the ability to look around at all of the opportunities that they can create for themselves, leveraging their position and their platform. That's the reason why you've been so successful, because that's in you. I don't think it's naturally in everyone.

So what I needed to do was get out of a system that was very much telling me, this is who you need to be, this is what you need to be doing in this moment, and then be able to think clearly as a creator to say, hey, these are the things I'm really passionate about and I want to do. had I had the ability or the no-with-all, I mean, it's been 20 years ago and social media wasn't social media like that back then to be able to do what you've been able to do.

I mean, what a blessing. And so many people are watching you do that. So, yes, I understand what you're saying, but that doesn't apply to you. And when you say radio is dying, I don't think that radio is dying. I just think that, you know, you had a lot of program directors

who took the personality out of radio. They wouldn't let an Erica Cobb be an Erica Cobb. They wouldn't let a Claudia Jordan be a Claudia George. So if they take personality out of radio, but then everybody's going to podcast and YouTube and giving you a whole lot of personality, where do you think people are going to gravitate toward?

Yeah, radio, I think, well, radio outside of you guys and maybe one or two other people. Like, this is a different situation that you guys can still be you here. Like, you guys just have your personality and all your stuff here. This is a very unique space here at the breakfast club. But the average city of, I mean, I've been through it

with radio and stuff. Like, you know, the character, especially when you're part of an ensemble cast, when there's a male lead, the role of a black woman in those situations is usually horrific. Usually you could be paid a good amount of money to just be someone's laugh track

or just being a support role and it's a lot of misogyny and radio. Like that is not the safest place for women in radio. Not here. You said you felt your safest appear. I did. No, here it was like... You thought me and if he was gay.

Well, that's from the mouth of the words out of your mouth. Who's mouth? Y'all was talking about each other's every day. You bottom heavy and you know what its feet look like and all that shit. I'm like, God damn, like, y'all wives, I get mad at this? Like, yo, why's let this happen? Like, Jesus Christ, what is happening here?

But, yeah, I felt safer because, like, we're the straight man. You know what I mean? Period. Where are they? They're all in each other. They're all behind the glass. What's the worst experience that you had in radio

that brought you to that? Oh, don't get her started. Oh, sorry. No, um... Well, you got some good ones. She got some great ones. I'm trying to... It just seems like you've really been through something.

I have. I'll talk about, you know, I'll talk about my dad. Dallas experience. So I was paired with someone that I didn't really have a relationship with and he was told he would be lead and I was told we were co-host. And when we got there like my stories were they told me my stories were funnier and he got offended and there's a radio you know I don't know if you I'm sure you guys have the boot camp we have the the big consultants I come in and kind

of rework things in your show we actually don't oh what they have it they just don't say yeah yeah well they switched it where I was put in the lead position and that caused a lot of resentment and it's hard to have chemistry in a small room with you and your co-host when there's resentment. I'm sure you guys have all been in position. We had to work with someone where it wasn't popping anymore. And it made it like unbearable. It was hell.

I remember like praying every day walking into the studio like, please let me get through this day because I'm not someone that can hide anything in my face and just like laugh along with it. And it just got really ugly and it really blew up really bad one day. But he said a lot of really fucked up shit. And yeah, that was our last day we worked together after that. And was that on air? No, but it was like he was overreacting of a very small thing.

where if you don't like someone, the way someone breathes will get on your nerves. You know what I'm saying? And then I just feel like we just didn't really have, like we weren't it wasn't set up properly. But again, I'm happy for every experience. Yeah, morning radio is a place where you have to have the right energy. Like you gotta be able to, like a family,

like when you walk in the room, somebody gonna be talking shit, somebody gonna be cracking jokes. I feel like you have to have that type of energy to have a successful morning. None of these shows are about y'all's topics. None of them. None of these successful podcasts, TV shows, radio shows, talk shows, are about the topics.

They are about the relationship with you guys, the relationship. And you know every time he says this, you're going to say that. You know when Jess says this, you're going to say that. And that's what people are waiting for it. And that's the formula.

It's not, oh, today we're talking about, you know, Wendy Williams, it's not, everyone gets the same topics. We have access to the internet. So it's about the relationship. So that's what y'all have to, like, protect, and we protect it, hang on in real life, you know,

and we have fun. But when you know that the person has your back, that they really care for you and rock with you, you're not gonna take the jokes personally. You know it's for the greater good of the show, not for I'm trying to get a jab at you. Now, Eric, have you ever taken any of Claudia jokes so hot? Please let me know the truth.

No, I don't. Really? I don't know what it is. I'm just gonna blame it on my cheekbones, okay? People have this sense of like, I'm so, like, innocent and fragile. I'm like, I don't understand. My father, bless his heart.

Give us some thug stories. Roosevelt, oh my gosh, my father, Roosevelt, okay, he's 75 years old. He's from North Carolina, and he has always spoken to me a very strict, stern way. What point in North Carolina? He's from Red Springs, North Carolina. Oh, okay. You know where Red Springs is? No, but I know that you heard Cracker a lot.

I've heard everything a lot. You heard the gay slur a lot. I've heard, no. No, no, my dad, no, my dad doesn't say that. Yeah, but I've heard other things. But it was always just this, this very hard, like... Tough love? Very tough, and it was a survival thing.

So you're saying I can go harder on the show. Well, I'm not saying that. I'm saying we understand this line. I think she wants to give me to a harder. We understand this line. How was your dad when he first met your husband? How was it when you bought him home? That's a good question.

That's a good question. Southern father. Yeah. Yeah. So my father told me when I was in junior high that I could not bring my best friend to the church that we went to. We went to church on the west side of Chicago. And at the time, we were living in the suburbs. And I was like, I'm sorry. Was your best friend white? He was white? Yeah, he had. So my dad asked, what's his last name? And I said the last name. And he was like, yes. He Italian? Right. And he was Italian? And I was like, he guessed by the last name. Well, it was pretty obvious. And he's like, you will never, it's like Patrick, my older brother,

has never brought a girl into this home that isn't black, and you will never bring a boy into this home that isn't black. And, I want you to listen to this story because this is a good one right here. Because y'all may say the same thing to his daughters. Go. Uh-huh. Really?

So fast forward, about 30 years later, and now he loves my Italian husband from Canada. because that's just the way that it worked out, you know? Wow. So your love if your daughter is love. I don't have any problem with it, but I don't think there's anything wrong with also me saying this is my preference.

I want to see my black daughters with a black man. And I think it's, and listen, I love black love. I am the product of black love. My parents have been married for 46 years. Like I understand all of that. You said black men don't hit on you. You said they don't like you. Black men generally don't hit on me.

No, I don't. Even after the gun reduction? Even after the gum reduction, no. Maybe the gums would have. I don't know what it is. I'm from Chicago. I've never, it had, I've never gotten hit on by black men.

Now we're out of America. No, I know she lying. I am so serious. I am so. Beautiful. Melanie is, it's so pretty. I can think of two black men who have asked me out in my entire life.

I don't get this. And it wasn't even like a viable. situation because one, I was married at that time. And then the other part was like, it was just kind of like a shoot your shot type thing. It wasn't a serious thing. But yeah, I do not. Erica, have you had black D?

I'm not talking about it. The Canadians sitting home, like, keep the cute. I am not going there. I am not going there. Wait, but you've seen a black penis before. I have seen everything, okay? No, no, I specifically want to know about black penis. I need, before we move on.

Approve of your co-host. That's a better question. I'm looking up Canadian penis. Oh, my God. What? Final was they on the ranking. It's average 5.5. 5.5?

Yeah. What about 5.5? That's the average of Canadian peen. Oh, well, we don't have to worry about that. Oh, he's Italian, too. So yeah, he's good. Oh, it does say that men in Canada have a larger average penis than many in many countries.

But I'm happy she looks, clearly. Oil and gas money and penis, and he's no problem. Wow. I can't believe no black men tried to highlight you ever. I know. It's always been that way. We're going to talk about this. on the show I need to know about this you I need it well now it doesn't matter

but I need to know your sexual pedigary you've never you've seen about I've seen I've seen everything I've never done right right I've seen everything I'm 44 you have one of your hand I see my gosh oh my god you're having that question too I am not calling or unearthing anything right yes okay because you I didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't know. I never even heard.

It's hard to believe. I don't believe that's possible. There's no way I look at you, how beautiful you are and no black man has ever tried to holl at you. I'm telling you so diesel? What was you? She did fitness. But still. What is fitness?

Did you look intimidating? Yeah, but like it's even, that's even more attractive. A lot of men like that. You see Papoos? Papoos jumped all over that girl. That's true. You know what I mean? She's stupid.

I don't know. It's never, I don't know. It's just what it is. I don't believe that, but I got to believe you because you said it. And she also doesn't have the typical aesthetic for a white man as well because they usually say like hard wig, soft life with the white man. And you have like the great hair too. Yeah, I've had a couple of hard weeks too.

Thank you, Ramada. The hard wigs get you. They love white hair. I keep hearing that about the hard wig soft life thing. That's crazy. The white men love those synthetic wigs. Because they want us to be humble. They humble us.

The ones with little hearts. But you got a good one. Well, you got a good wig. you be we'd be doing too much then white men be like uh-uh go get that wig from the store so what hard wings are like a side of insecurity or something or they just think they keep us humbled in some way yes well my wigs was crunchy girl i was guys to be scared you know you know i think they want maybe like let me fix this this round the girl's life yeah yeah she need me let the experts speak oh wow wait hold up does she like a president of hard mix you a foul are you a hard

Out of the hard wig committee? Hell no. I've never seen her hair, ever. This is my hair actually, but he just be on my, he be, he be on me. Yeah. My wigs do not be hard. I don't even date white men. First of all.

Does she show me? No, she don't date white man. She don't have her hair. Have you ever seen any of my wigs be hard? I never saw her wig because I definitely would have said something. And you look because she's very honest. I'm very honest. I would just say, yeah, you had a fucked up wig.

I'm gonna fuck the wig. Anything else? No, I'm just waiting on you talking. I forget what I was gonna say. You're some of my hard wigs. Oh, oh, oh, oh. They'd be saying that the hard wigs are like the sign of like the strong black woman sometimes too. Because you're trying to change the narrative real quick.

Y'all never heard that. Like the women who like have like the great, the corporate CEO black women. They always said they have bad wigs. That's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We need a deep dive, a documentary maybe into this. I think it's worth it. Here it is because black hair is definitely. is definitely rooted in hierarchy.

Yes. Depending on what type of hair we choose, whether it's like the origin of the hair, if you're talking about weaves and extensions and stuff or the style of hair from braids to like straightening your hair. That is a silent indicator of your quote unquote socioeconomic status. It's what you're able to do versus what you're not able to do, what you are privileged in versus what you're not.

religion it's a silent thing yeah i used to own um be part owner of a hair extension company and that was always the prevailing sentiment if you wanted something that was considered like you know mainstream and what everyone aspirational if you will then we were expected to basically remortgage your home in order to get this quality you know type thing the things that women would do because they knew that it was signaling to the world that, hey, I'm here, I've made it because I'm able to do this to my hair. I think we put in too much effort,

personally, especially for what's out here. Like, I'm sick of it. You are depleted of these men. You are so bad. I don't care. And you're all getting your head down. Like, why are we spending so much money? Ladies, I would like to call for a national boycott.

Like, we need to break, we're looking too fly out here. Wigs and wings and just putting so much into our appearance and looks. Like, they show up. Beijing, we fucked up. They got the white line. They're doing so much of the stomachs. Like, y'all don't.

Put any effort. Men just get to show up. And we are so judged on our looks, even on radio. It's crazy. Like, it's crazy. Like, why do we put so much effort? You ever go out with your friends

and get ready to go to a club or party and you look like you're about to be in a pageant? Yes. And then you see what shows up? Yes. Plaque. Sleep in the eye. Breath.

Breath be terrible. Blatch you underneath the nails everywhere. Right in the cracks of the mall. But this I said on one episode recently that it was like a fine-ass actor that was texting. Y'all was going to figure something out. Oh, yeah, it was texting me.

They text me. I mean, you know. She's like, look, I ain't saying, I ain't got no hoes. Huh? He didn't have no flat. Yeah, but I see some people, I just don't want people I talk about themselves in the third person. You know what I'm saying?

Like, male actors are like that. Oh, my God. Male actors, a lot of times do that. A lot of male actors are like, they're good looking, but you know, a lot of times it's that. What he said, like, yo, you don't want to go out with such or such? You, what you're talking about himself? It's kind of like, just referring to themselves

in the third person, like, you know what I'm him? Like, I'm not doing that. Like, I'm not him type. No, not LA. Where are he from? I'll tell you off camera. Oh, okay. You don't want to tell you, you know.

No, because you can, because sometimes depending on where men are from, too, the arrogance. Like, I feel like a lot, no, my. A lot of what? The arrogance is different depending on where men are from sometimes. Where do you think the most arrogant men are from? I feel like. California. Yes, I was going to say men in LA, they think that God's gift to the world.

They do. They do. And I'd be like, what? When I first moved out, there was a lot of really handsome, in shape, tall men out there. And then it's just like the source one of the source, one of them. It just got worse and worse and worth and worth and they're still arrogant like they're still fine. I was told that it's because they grow up with all these beautiful women around them all the time, so they're not pressed so they give you that energy. I got called the bitch the most coast. Like they hollered you like, oh no thank you all. Fuck you damn bitch. You ain't all that. I'm like oh, I'm like welcome to California. So we'll never know. I've never had that experience from LA. He's not. It's nothing though. No, just reaching out. I'm ever, but then again, I am everybody's home girl and I have been meeting a lot of people lately. I have been meeting a lot of people lately. that say, man, back in the, I was trying to get at you.

I'm like, you were? So maybe these people are hitting on me, and I just don't even realize it. Whole time. Because I, you have to make it really obvious for me, or I'm thinking, like, we're just cool. I think the microphone might scare people away. They think I'm going to talk about that. Exactly. But you always do, though.

I don't, what names have I ever said? You've never said names. You've never got a name for me. The only person y'all really know I was really with was KJ because we did a TV show together. That's for the most part. Like, for the most part, it's all speculation, lies and rumors about all this long list of men. I'm like, really. If somebody was dating you, right?

And I remember she came in one day and was like, yeah, I was waiting for sex all night and he didn't give me none, right? That's why I broke up with the next day. You said that on air? Yes! That's Claudia Joy and baby. It was Valentine's Day, and I knew that's because I knew we didn't give you sex on Valentine's?

We were about to break up. I think he was keeping with the ex. I think he was like, you know, felt guilty. And I was here. What were going to say? I'm sorry to me to catch up. I was going to say, but if somebody hears their story all the time, yeah, then they kind of inseverated.

But why is he already in the position to be proposition for sex? Because here's the thing. We always talk about the microphone and these platforms in terms of a deterrent, but that's also a part of what brought you here. It's a part of, you knew I was like before you hollied me. So it's like, if you're good for the ride that when things are going well

and you're a part of this narrative, you have to expect like my livelihood, the way that I make, my living hasn't changed. So just because we broke up so now you're exempt. I think it's one thing to have the conversation and give all the details, with the names and descriptors to them. But to talk about your life, I mean,

that's just what we do. Yeah. I don't trash the guys that been with, like, you, I've never, like, put a name out there and, like, really went in like that. You know what I mean? Listen, it is, it is a man out there that really, a man in particular that we all know

that still want Claudia, that wanted her back in the day. I think she was talking to him back in the day. He's a singer, he'd be doing all types of on stage. Oh, yeah. You're trying to show. He loves me. You know what I mean? Yeah, he can't say the name.

Can't say no name. You gave it a... That man, I know that's too late. You can't guess. You did his exact day. I'm like, if you were playing charade, like, yeah, you mind. That's right.

Like, he's truly, like, he supports everything I do. Like, here we... Love her, damn. He reposted, uh, actually I have a movie coming out on the 29th. It's, uh, in theaters. It's called Run. It's a sci-fi.

Oh, you're shooting kids. Yes. I saw the trailer for me. That's what I brought you to. Oh, shit. It's, it's, it's, uh, black and brown woman as leads in a sci-fi movie. It looks super expensive.

Like, it looks like a $30 million picture. Yeah, it starts like Girl's Trip. And then it leads to, you know, we're up in a cabin and then the Earth gets invaded. And the special effects. I want to shout out. Juicadora did some amazing stunts in this. She did so good.

So it's great. That's why I'm out here, actually. The premiere is tonight. I saw that part. I don't know why I thought it was a Jordan Piel movie when I first saw the trailer. Exactly. But that's me too.

Because the trailer has been all over the place. I've seen it a few times on a few of blogs. I'm like, my girl, it's like, And it's not on 2B, not that there's anything wrong with Tubi. Right. Because I feel like I'm one of the TV greats from my scene with the child. Are you shooting any kids in this one? I don't shoot any kids.

I want to let y'all know my update. So the 2B movie where I shot the kid, it went everywhere, right? Thank you for breakfast club. Then I did another movie called Do It for the Gram. Why did shoot teenagers, they were in college. So I'm moving up. My last film, I have another one called The Handyman that dropped this month. I'm not killing any children or any teenagers.

So I'm actually getting to an older, demographic so anytime you see me in a black hoodie i'm killing somebody okay i want to see you shoot somebody in toby with just your fingers but bullet's on listen i i i'm with the shits though yes like i don't get embarrassed ever like i think that stuff is so funny me too i think that's what to be is of like four yeah like the beautifully craft the movie like Chris Stokes he has a huge deal with them they they do beautifully done movies where everything's right there's no continuity issues but the lower budget films where you walk in with jeans and then you walk out with some black pants on it's so fun to watch i want i'm

putting my idea that i want to make an award show called the twobies where we highlight the best of the worst exactly i don't care because all i want is you and all i want is you too they my movies for her i got a story yeah that's yeah frank yeah with columbishore and brian one i love it jesska host that you'd be a great home you'd be good for the two be down you know what you mean to be You already know. I'm going to send you the treatment and we're going to do it. I'm announcing it here in the breakfast club and Erica Cobb is going to do all the red carpet stuff. Yeah.

And you're going to interview all the actors all, because all of Detroit is in all the movies, right? That's the hub of Cleveland. You might need to do it in Detroit. That's the 2B headquarters. 2B is the nigger version of Netflix. It really is. But it gives a lot of opportunities to people. Some should have them.

Some should not. But no, they should all have them. Because I feel like there's a place for all kinds and different levels. Everything doesn't have to be the Julia Roberts' top two. Julia Roberts top tier, Angela Bassett. There's also people like from the neighborhood that wanna do films and that's a place where you can do them. You can get your stuff on the air.
