Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast
Post Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into
their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.

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 shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.

You are out of control. I can't even Hot Seat. You're alive. You're alive.
Can I live?
You are out of control.
I can't even deal with you.
Y'all are so petty.
Why are y'all so petty?
The world's most dangerous morning show.
DJ Envy.
Captain of this bitch.
Angela Yee.
I stay in everybody's business, but in a good way.
Charlamagne Tha God.
The ruler rubbing you the wrong way.
The Breakfast Club.
Made for everybody. Good
morning, USA!
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo,
yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo,
yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo,
yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo!
Hey, good morning, Charlamagne.
Good morning, Angelique.
Peace to the planet.
Guess what day it is.
Guess what day it is.
Hump Day.
Envy's running a little late.
Now, what are you supposed to do on Hump Day?
On Wednesday?
You get ready for Thursday and Friday?
That's what the hell you do on Wednesday. It's just, oh, you aren't running that late.
Hey, Envy.
Hey, guys, good morning.
You're not running late.
Yeah, you are.
I had to get gas,
so it was either get gas
and be a little late.
So you farted?
Or...
That means you have something
to do in the city after work.
Absolutely.
Exactly.
So you've been here before.
You would just hit the tunnel
and get a gas station right there.
I will say this,
in New York City,
it's hard to find a gas station.
In the city, absolutely.
Damn near impossible.
Like, when you live in Jersey, when you live in Atlanta, when you live in Detroit, there's gas stations everywhere.
But in New York, if you don't get gas.
Damn near impossible.
It's impossible.
I had to make that decision right before the bridge.
Either I'm going to be late or I'm going to get gas.
I was like, ah, I'm going to get gas.
You would look like a goddamn fool running out of gas in the middle of Manhattan.
Wouldn't it be stupid?
Or Brooklyn.
And you know what?
I'm going to tell you something.
Sometimes on my way to work, there's only one gas station
that I could potentially pass
on my whole entire way to work.
And sometimes it's closed
in the morning
because they're filling it up.
And so if I don't make
that gas station,
I have to go like 10 minutes
out of my way to get gas.
Oh, no.
Charlamagne and I
pass like 40 gas stations.
You guys live in Jersey.
Yeah, there's a bunch of them.
I live in Brooklyn.
And salute to everybody
in South Carolina
who got a gas up right now
because Hurricane Florence is on the way.
We're going to talk about that in Front Page News because it's looking like it's going to be really crazy.
Yeah, it's going to be bad.
Salute to my home state.
Prayers for my home state.
Yes.
Did y'all talk about Kathy Griffin joining us this morning?
No, but she will be here this morning.
She will be here, and I think she's going to have all the smoke.
Oh, we're definitely getting put on the black identity extremist list after this interview.
My goodness. I am almost positive the smoke. Oh, we're definitely getting put on the black identity extremist list after this interview. My goodness.
I am almost positive about that.
Oh, man.
So for people out there that don't know who Kathy Griffin is, the comedian.
He should do that.
You know, explain what was so crazy that happened in the last couple of years.
There was a picture circulating of her holding Donald Trump, a fake head of Donald Trump.
Doesn't get any more popular than everybody in this room.
All right.
She's a D-list celebrity.
All right.
To a certain core.
I'm sure there's a group of people out there
That was like, I don't know who that is
He's refreshing everyone's memory
She's the one who did a picture
Of decapitating Donald Trump
And got in all kinds of trouble for it
And you haven't seen much from her since
She's been on tour
I'm just kidding
That's the one thing about being a stand-up comic
Even if everything else stops If the television network's throwing a rock at you or whatever
else, movies, you can still hit that stage and make your money.
But she did lose all of her jobs on television.
She did.
As a result of that.
And it wasn't hard for her at first to get back out there.
And she'll tell that story.
I think she enjoys the freedom now, though.
That's also the beauty of it, too.
Once you lose everything, you ain't got nothing to lose.
So now you're just free.
So you're like, F it.
What am I biting my tongue for?
A lot of people laying F it.
A lot of people by stressed out, got bills to pay.
Not when you got a world tour like hers.
All right.
Well, we'll talk to her about that in a little bit.
And we got front page news.
What are we talking about, Ye?
Well, we are, of course, going to talk about Hurricane Florence.
But then we'll be talking about documents showing that ICE got $10 million from FEMA.
What's crazy about that is hurricane season's starting.
My goodness.
Doesn't FEMA need that money?
All right, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Yes.
Let's talk this hurricane.
Hurricane Florence is
approaching the North Carolina coast. They said they
expect it to make landfall
Friday afternoon and it could sit around
for days. They said it will be life-threatening
amounts of rain and catastrophic winds.
According to the Governor Roy Cooper,
he said the storm is nothing like you've ever seen.
Even if you've ridden out storms
before, this one is different. Don't bet your life on
riding out a monster. It's a
Category 4 storm. They're saying it's one of the strongest
hurricanes on the eastern seaboard
in decades. So it's going to be flooding,
hurricane-force winds, dangerous storm
surges. The effects of that hurricane
will be felt from Virginia, Tennessee,
Kentucky, Georgia. And they have
issued a hurricane warning from South Santee
River, South Carolina to Duck, North Carolina.
Wow. Man, only thing you can do is get out the way.
Yeah, I was watching the news
and I saw people like, I'm going to ride it out.
I've been in these storms before. I'm not going anywhere.
I mean, they have been though. I mean, you know,
I went through Hurricane Hugo when I was younger.
It's been Category 5s and 4s that have hit
South Carolina, so some people will ride it out, but
others just need to get out the way.
Yeah, but it's the strongest one in decades.
My mom and them is getting out the way. Stay out the way. Yeah, they're getting out the way. This is your life. Yeah, just get out the way. Yeah, but it's the strongest one in decades. My mom and them is getting out the way.
They out the way?
Yeah, they getting out the way.
This is your life.
Yeah, just get out the way.
Nothing you can do about Mother Nature, baby.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
What else you talking about?
All right, well, interestingly enough,
Senator Jeff Merkley released a document
showing that FEMA transferred nearly,
and that's the Federal Emergency Management Agency,
transferred nearly $10 million to ICE, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Now, this is right before hurricane season.
Hurricane season is just starting right now.
As you can see, Hurricane Florence is already here.
So why would you be taking $10 million from FEMA where that money goes for hurricane relief and taking that and moving it over to ICE?
Well, I mean, everybody knows none of that money really goes to hurricane relief.
Like you hear about all of these places that raise all of this money when a hurricane,
a natural disaster happens and the places still look the same. You're like, what happened? Yeah,
the people on the ground, they're like, we never got any of that money. Well, Senator Jeff Merkley
was on MSNBC's Rachel Maddow show and here's what happened. As a category four hurricane is bearing
down on the Carolinas and the Virginia coast. We now have evidence that in
advance of hurricane season this summer, as hurricane season was getting ready to start,
the Trump administration does appear to have transferred $10 million out of FEMA to instead
fund detention facilities for immigrants. That's crazy. Yeah, I guess that's more important to him.
All right. And a school in Georgia is actually going to install a new policy.
They want to paddle kids as a form of punishment.
What do you mean paddle?
That's a new policy?
Well, for them, yeah.
They've never done that before.
What do you mean?
I grew up getting paddled in school.
And teachers and kids?
Yes.
The Georgia School of Innovation and the Classics, it's a kindergarten through ninth grade charter school, is bringing back paddling.
So they'll spank their children on the behind.
They're going to use a wooden board.
Can they do that?
I mean, the school is doing it.
I grew up on paddling.
I grew up at Berkeley Middle School.
I used to get paddled so goddamn much.
I mean, nuns popped us, but...
Nuns?
We never had...
Nuns and sisters.
Let me tell you something.
I got popped by Mr. Barnett and Mr. Barnes.
I was...
No teachers were ever allowed to put their hands on us.
Well.
The nuns and sisters popped us on the hand, but paddled?
We used to get paddled.
Wooden paddles, baby.
2018?
You can't do that.
Now, parents can deny giving permission to the school.
There's going to be a form sent home, and that form says the school will take that way to discipline the kids.
But they can also deny the school that corporal punishment.
I need to ask my mom and dad, did they send out forms back in the day?
Well, clearly they allowed you to be paddled.
Definitely not.
That must be some badass kids.
We all used to get paddled.
Yeah, we was bad.
So would you mind if they paddled your kids in school?
They're not paddling my kids.
No, I don't want them to paddle my kids.
But back in the day when it was easy to get ISS or get suspended,
I'd go take them three licks.
What's ISS?
In-school suspension.
Oh.
It's like house arrest for kids.
I still got to come to school.
The point of getting suspended is you get to stay home.
I'd rather get suspended.
I hated ISS.
I couldn't do it.
I got ADD.
You know what I'm saying?
I'd rather cut.
All right.
I'd rather be suspended and lie to my parents that I'm going to school and then go smoke
weed at somebody's house all day.
I just can't imagine that anybody's parents would be okay with giving a teacher permission
to paddle their kids.
Not at all.
I wouldn't in this era.
Not at all.
Back in the day, it was a different time,
and it took a village to raise a child.
All right, well, that is your front page news.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
Now, get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up right now.
Phone lines are already open.
Call us up.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Get's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Say it, say it, say it.
Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, Envy.
Hey, you.
Hey, Salome.
Hey.
What's up, baby?
How are you?
Get it off your chest.
I'm good.
DJ Envy, I want to say sorry.
I did hear the segment where it just seemed like I cut you off.
I'm sorry, dude. It's all right. It's all love. Yo, she want to say sorry. I did hear the segment where it just seemed like I cut you off. I'm sorry, dude.
It's all right.
It's all love.
She'd be ad-checking herself.
She'd be recording her call-ins and ad-checking herself.
I sure do.
I've seen your little tweet where you was like, Charlamagne, I love Charlamagne.
He my favorite.
I mean, I've been seeing you, Envy, but you be asking too much to respond back.
Oh, my gosh.
I feel you, but I feel you.
But, you know, you guys are all my favorites.
All right. I'm mad about the whole feel you, but I feel you. But you know, you guys are all my favorites. Alright.
I'm mad about the whole Dallas shooting.
How the Dallas shoot, I mean the
police officer who shot Gene.
You know, because I'm from Dallas or whatever.
And so the fact that, you know, everybody's seen those apartments
they know that nowadays those new apartments
it's not easy to open the door.
Like, let's be real. So the fact
that she said it was lightly open and just her
stories don't add up and it gets really sad to the point where the whole social media is better investigators than themselves, you know?
I don't trust social media investigators.
But she is wild.
She is wild.
And she said she told the guy I gave him several commands and he wouldn't stop.
I'm like, yo, you in my house.
Yeah, you in my crib.
Somebody comes in my house with a gun.
And then she turned those lights off. And then it was like, you got hallway lights? I know they're bright, you in my house. Yeah, you in my crib. I ain't stopping. Somebody comes in my house with a gun. And then you turn those lights off.
And then it was like, you got hallway lights?
I know they're bright.
Those apartments are nice.
I know for a fact those lights are, like, bomb.
You can see something.
But it's just nothing of that whole thing doesn't make sense.
But, you know, it is kind of funny when social media is kind of, like, better investigators.
Like, they come up with a better scenario.
You know, like, try to answer everything she's saying.
You know, it makes sense in my head.
No, it does not make sense.
Okay, do not trust social media investigators.
I don't trust CSI Twitter.
Sharon.
Yes, hello.
Good morning.
Get it off your chest.
So my son goes to Boy's Excellence in Brooklyn,
and all the parents coming in because the kids have to be there by 7.15.
So I just wanted to get off my chest that these parents need to be more
consistent with parking right and not just being in the middle of the street and just cursing me out.
Yesterday, a parent actually cursed me out and told me that, oh, you see my son coming out the car.
I'm like, miss, you parked right in the middle of the street.
I just want us parents to be better when we have a fake out case to school and we get along.
It's all boys.
I ain't gonna lie, though.
Sometimes you just gotta get low.
You gotta pull in where you can pull in,
get that kid out the damn car and keep it moving,
because sometimes it's too many cars,
too many parents.
You just gotta get in where you fit in.
She's just talking about how they talk to each other, though.
She cursed me out.
She said, oh, you got the right parent this morning.
You blew the horn, didn't you?
You blew the horn at her.
No, I didn't blow the horn.
I just went around her, got on the side, and I was trying to get my son out just as well as she was trying to get her son out. See, that's the crazy part, ha. You blew the horn at her. No, I didn't blow the horn. I just went around her, got on the side,
and I was trying to get my son out
just as well as she was trying to get her son out.
See, that's the crazy part, though.
Y'all all in the same ecosystem
trying to do the same thing at the same time,
so y'all should have a little bit more compassion,
sympathy, empathy, and respect for each other.
Right, that's what I'm saying.
I'm not that type of mother,
and I don't want to see my son,
I don't want to let my son see me
act a fool with another parent.
That's not right for him.
Okay.
That is very true.
Yeah.
Well, thank you for calling, Mama.
You don't want your kids talking to each other like that.
And DJ Envy, love you guys.
Love you too, honey.
And then you don't want to have one of them parents that tell their kid,
hey, beat that woman's kid for me today.
All right, go whip his ass for me.
Talking to your mama like that.
It's on sight when you see her child.
I was definitely that parent.
But anyway, get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up now.
It's The Breakfast Club.

My thing is, I heard what I watched a documentary that said that back in the day, you know,
light skinned people got more respect and more love than dark skinned people.
Is that is that a thing or is that that was true back in the day?
Yeah, that's maybe back in the day after apartheid and all of that.
But I will say, yes, definitely go.
I loved it.

If you come to Niagara Falls, you're going to be hosting a show from here.

Your show, The Breakfast Club or Live Service, whatever one you want to do.
So do we have studios in Niagara Falls?
No, I doubt it.

your chest. 805-85-1051.
If you need to vent, you can hit us up at
any time. We got rumors on the way? Yes.
Find out who says he's very, very serious
about running for president. I'm curious if you
would vote for him. Also, find out
who Drake tried to shoot his shot with
and it never worked out. Alright, we'll get into
all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast
Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Listen up. It's just in.
All the gossip. The rumor report.
Got gossip. With Angela Yee.
It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club.
Well, look who might be throwing
their hat in the ring to run for president
here is what Oscar De La Hoya said on TMZ Sports.
I'm actually very, very serious.
And I strongly feel that if a Kanye West can do it and announce and maybe tease the world that he would maybe one day want to run for president, why not me?
You know, I'm actually in the works of putting a team together.
If the numbers are right, I'm going to go for it.
Well, I mean, all Kanye West did was say he wants to run.
And then he's also looking at Donald Trump and saying, well, Donald Trump did it.
See, that's the problem.
See, this is just like in hip hop when you start seeing whack rappers make it.
So now you're just sitting around like, damn, well, I can make it too.
All right now, Lil Duval, 41 years old with a hit single.
So all these old dudes getting back in the studio at 45, 46 years old, recording records.
This has to stop, though. This is the president.
That's what I'm telling you. Donald Trump is not
the bar. If Donald Trump is your bar to run for president,
don't run for president. Well, now, Golden Boy
Promotions is very successful.
You better stop. I am watching the fight this weekend,
though. Canelo Alvarez versus Triple G.
Who you got? Canelo Alvarez. Now, imagine if
the president, okay, of
the United States was promoting that fight.
No.
All right, now let's discuss Heidi Klum.
She was on with Ellen and they were playing Would You Rather,
and it was Joaquin Phoenix or Drake.
Well, here's what Heidi Klum said happened with Drake
when he tried to, I guess, take her on a date.
Who called you out of those two?
Oh, my gosh.
Drake, he did.
Drake called you. He did. It's true as it Who called you out of those two? Oh my gosh. Drake, he did. Drake called you?
He did.
It was basically like a week too late. Yeah.
When he called like a week after it aired? I don't remember when it was and I didn't even have his number.
He didn't have my number. How did he find you? Because someone who I know knows him and I guess he asked to have my number and then he texted me and I was like, oh my gosh, this is so weird.
But then I never texted
him back because I found the love of my life.
Listen, man, I don't like to shame people
because people are allowed to do whatever they want with their
bodies, but Drake is a whore.
Leave him alone. You are a hater.
You are a hater.
He is a whore. You are a hater.
You didn't call French Montana a whore.
French is definitely a whore. I have definitely called French a whore.
I mean, those guys are allowed to do whatever they want with their bodies.
That's right.
Okay?
They can sleep with whoever they want.
Exactly.
They are whores.
You hear me?
He's just shy.
My gosh.
Why?
Because he asked?
He wanted to take her on a date?
He didn't take her on a date.
He didn't say he wanted to smash.
Okay.
No doubt.
Yeah.
Maybe he just wanted to hold her hands.
And maybe it would have led to more.
Be romantic.
Okay.
But do you think That she should've
At least texted him back
And said no
Nah leave it open
Just in case
Cause she said
She was in a relationship
Yeah but she could've
Just said hey
I'm in a relationship now
Like maybe a response
Cause now it's awkward
If we run into each other
But if it didn't work out
Then you could be like
I never got the text
I'm not gonna
Well too late now
She just said
On Ellen DeGeneres
She did
She found the love
Of her life
Yeah I feel like
When you text a woman
Who's in a relationship and she texts you back,
hey, I'm in a relationship right now,
she's just letting you know I'm in a relationship right now.
You know what I'm saying?
But don't lose my number.
When you don't text back at all,
that lets me know like, no, I'm definitely good.
I don't know.
It could be respectful to just say,
hey, you know, thank you so much,
but I'm actually happily in a relationship.
Good luck to you.
That's nice.
When Drake gonna have his own slut walk?
Shut up, man. Shut up, man. That's what inquiring minds really want to know. That's nice. When Drake gonna have his own slut walk? Shut up, man.
Shut up, man.
That's what inquiring minds really wanted, though.
All right.
Now let's talk about an old Dirty Bastard biopic.
Looks like it's gonna happen.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, they're currently in early development on a biopic about ODB.
So right now they don't know what actor's gonna do it.
But remember, Michael K. Williams was casted to play Old Dirty Bastard in another movie,
Dirty White Boy, but that movie never actually
happened. So right now
we've got to figure out who will play that role
and I think RZA is going to be
attached to it as a producer as well.
I mean, his son should get first dibs, right?
Yeah. Yeah, I would hope he
would get first dibs, but it also is an
acting. He has to be an actor, yeah. So you've got to make sure that
he can actually pull it off because that would be terrible if it didn't work out.
But yes, hopefully he can.
I heard there's about to be a lot of different Wu-Tang TV shows
and movies and stuff like that, as it should be.
Well, yeah, there's a lot of different people in the group
whose stories you can tell, too.
Yes, that's my favorite hip-hop group of all time.
All right, now Alex Rodriguez, A-Rod,
he is going to have to work at Wahlburgers
because he lost a bet to Mark Wahlberg.
They actually had a bet under the, of course, their rivals with the Boston Red Sox and the Yankees.
So he posted on his Twitter, ready to honor my promise to Mark Wahlberg and flip some Wahlburgers in Boston.
Come on over now for some pre-Red Sox and Astros burgers.
So he was actually there flipping them burgers, doing the drinks, cleaning tables,
cleaning the floors
and all of that.
So nice thing to do, right?
To actually own up
to that bet that you lost.
Yep.
All right.
Well, I'm Angela Yee
and that is your rumor report.
Have you ever been
to Wahlburgers?
No, I haven't.
I've been to one.
They have one in Detroit.
I went there.
I haven't been there.
It's pretty good.
All right.
Now don't forget,
if you want to win a trip
to New York City
to go to Powerhouse to see Cardi B, Lil Uzi
Vert, SZA, and more

keyword. Once you hear that keyword, just

keyword again to 64895
and you can fly on out to
New York City. We'll take care of your flights. We'll take care
of your hotel. We'll put you in the building
and you get to see Cardi B, Lil Uzi Vert,
SZA, and more. I said we. in the building and you get to see Cardi B, Lil Uzi vs. N Moore. I said
we. Yeah, that's you. No,
we, as in I heart. Not
me, you, or Charlamagne. I heart. We'll do that.
Alright, so let's keep it locked.
And that's powered by Am Energy
Organic. Alright, now when we come back,
Kathy Griffin will be joining us. And I know
that we're definitely getting put on the black identity
excrements list after this.
Don't put that in the atmosphere. I might be already
on there. That'd actually be dope if I was.
That's what you think.
Kathy Griffin will be here
for after the hour, man. I would say
we're not responsible for anything that she says,
but she's on The Breakfast Club.
The whole is responsible anyway, so whatever.
Keep it locked. Be mad. We'll be back.
It's The Breakfast Club. Come on.
E.J. Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. She's the breakfast club. Be mad. We'll be back. It's the breakfast club. Good morning. E.J. N.V. Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the breakfast club.
We got a special guest in the building.
And she's with the shits early.
I hear it.
Kathy Griffin.
Woo!
Kathy Griffin is here.
We're going to have some canned applause.
Don't worry.
Always in trouble.
Always in trouble.
How are you this morning?
I am so excited to be alive and able to work.
Yes.
Because what I've been through, May 30th, 2017, the walls caved in on my career because
I took a photo with a Halloween mask of Donald Trump with ketchup all over it.
And then the Oval Office, the White House, for the first time in history, the Department
of Justice, they put me under a two-month federal investigation.
Really?
And they were considering charging me
with, wait for it, this has never happened
in the history of our country, conspiracy
to assassinate the President of the United
States. Wow. And I just want people
to know, you can hate that picture all you want,
but it was not illegal. Yeah.
So part of my laugh your head off tour,
if you get it, laugh your head off.
Thank you! I'm leaning
in! It is, you know, I mean, it's a comedy show, so don't worry, it's not like a lecture on the First Amendment. if you get it, laugh your head off. Thank you. I'm leaning in.
It is, you know, I mean,
it's a comedy show,
so don't worry, it's not like a lecture on the First Amendment.
But honestly, it's a First Amendment issue.
And the president, I mean,
by the way, I know you can't see my air quotes,
but I call him the precedent because he's so stupid. One time he tweeted,
I'm proud to be your precedent.
It's like when he called the wife Melanie.
Okay, for me, it's Melanie forever. Like Melania's precedent. It's like when he called the wife Melanie. Okay, for me it's Melanie forever.
Like Melania is over.
It's Melanie.
Because if he can't even get her name right, I don't have to.
Do you regret that at all?
Attack me, are you kidding?
How bad did they attack you?
I don't regret it one bit.
Because I learned so much.
So first of all, I was in the middle of a 50 city tour.
So when Don Jr., or as I call him, Eddie Munster,
because he's not like fully formed.
I'm sorry, but this is a family
that's going to call Valerie Jarrett an ape.
I will call him an ape right back.
All sland is prohibited here. Go. Thank you.
First of all, he is not fully formed.
Teresa Guadice from the Real Housewives
has more of a forehead than he does.
So screw Don Jr. and
the other one, the blonde one, date rape.
Now the reason I say that,
you heard me, you heard me, you heard me.
I just cannot believe that anyone would consensually have sex with any of the Trumps.
But, yeah, so Don Jr. started a campaign, got me fired from my once a week, you know,
once a year gig on CNN.
And it was just crazy.
So I didn't know at the time, I called the Trump wood chipper, but they'd done it to politicians, but they hadn't done it to like a quote celebrity.
Right.
And so they put me kind of in the same machine.
This was before the Weinstein stuff, before Me Too.
I don't know if that photo would have gotten that reaction if I had done it then.
You know what I mean?
But they came at me and I lost my entire career in 24 hours.
Wow.
So the White House.
You really know you're a comedian.
Honey, the White House was working in tandem with Harvey Levin and TMZ.
The Daily Beast did an article about it.
Wow.
And, you know, AMI media, all the stuff coming about David Pecker owning everything from
the Enquirer to Us Weekly.
They did been doing nothing but hit pieces on me, but also the entire right wing media.
And I hate to say the mainstream media picked it up because I was breaking news in a bad
way.
Although you are talking to the seventh most Googled person of 2017 in the world for all
the wrong reasons, for all the wrong reasons.
People think I'm an ISIS.
Now, I don't know.
Was anybody supportive of you, though?
Was there any media outlet that was like, OK is a violation of the first amendment not a media outlet at all because it was like it was such a great like sort
of breaking news story and you know let me i'm going to be honest when you are a 57 year old
woman who is on television you know i've won two emmys i have a grammy for best comedy album one
of only three women in the history of the grammys to to win, myself, Lily Tomlin and Whoopi.
You know, I tried to like do my thing and this has never happened.
And I don't believe that a president should be able to keep an American citizen from making their living.
So then the Department of Justice called the next day and that is not a fun call to get.
And they said, we're putting you under an open ended investigation.
I was on the no fly list for two months.
You can't fly at all? No, I was on the no flyfly list for two months. You can't fly at all on planes?
No, I was on the no-fly list for two months.
So they called your cell phone and you just answered?
No, they called my lawyer and they said,
she's in trouble.
That's right. I couldn't make a living.
Well, let me tell you the first call I got.
I'm not kidding. First call I got, Cat Williams.
Cat Williams.
So we've been friends for a long time.
And he said,
they did this to a white lady? i said hi cat um that's usually how he starts his conversations you know what i mean
so he called me and he goes get out a piece of paper i said okay i dutifully got it just get
out a pen i said okay because you know you never know what cat's gonna say right he goes i want you
to write down the names of the people who call you today that are unconditionally supportive of you and also are going to say, you know what, I'm going to do something about it.
Like Kat did an Instagram post.
He gave me a great shout out in his last Netflix special.
And he said, at the end of the day, you're going to know who your real friends are.
And at the end of the day, there were three names.
Wow.
And I was like, I don't even know these guys that well.
But let me tell you,
none of the women
had my back.
Not one.
Wow.
The other people
on the list were
Jamie Foxx
and then Jim Carrey,
who I also don't even
know very well.
But when you're having
a day like that
where you're on the news
every two seconds
and you're fired
and then Donald Trump
is tweeting again,
we don't just want her fired.
We want to ruin her entire life.
That's so crazy to have a vendetta against somebody
because of a picture.
Yeah.
Well, you know, I gave you donkey today.
And I didn't give you donkey today for what you did
because I don't care about that.
But I knew the backlash that you would receive from it.
I'm like, why put yourself through that over Donald Trump?
Because you got to stand up.
And this, you know, I've known this moron
since the 90s.
He's actually hired me twice
to roast him. So it was such a BS
that he acted with the curl clutching.
He can't take a joke.
Honey, I went to the White House Correspondents Dinner
where, by the way, Michelle Wolf did a great job.
So she got a bad deal too.
I think her Netflix show got canceled because of Trump.
I think Trump was making a call to Mahomet.
I absolutely agree with that.
I absolutely agree with that.
But did you really anticipate the backlash?
No.
Did you think it would be that bad? I thought it would be an entertainment story for two days.
How did you survive, though?
Honey, I hunkered down, and the death threats are still coming to this day.
I did a show recently, and Randy, where'd the guy have the knife?
A knife?
Yeah, Houston.
Wow.
He had a knife? He ran up on you with
a knife? Yeah. Because they think you're unpatriotic.
You guys, people think I'm an ISIS
or Al Qaeda. Now, by the way, here's
the funny part. My 98-year-old
alcoholic mother who drinks a box of
Franzia wine a day, and I'm not a
spokesperson for Franzia, but she can
drink you bastards under the table. I'll tell you right
now, 98. The surrealness
of on that day when I'm like sobbing and it's all over for me.
And then my mother calls and she's, you know, hard of hearing.
And she goes, Kathleen, of all the clubs, why did you join Al Qaeda and ISIS?
Why couldn't you just start stamp collecting?
So being like I said, 57, I said, Mom, I don't think ISIS is recruiting a lot of Irish-American comedians right now.
I couldn't believe.
Someone showed me a survey that said 60 million Americans believed I had joined ISIS.
Like I said, I'm laughing now.
Wow.
I wasn't then.
You had to know how the picture was going to be perceived, though, right?
Oh, well, first of all, I think he deserves it.
So I stand by that picture 100%.
I will tell you I'm bitter, though, because the photographer, Tyler Shields, wouldn't give me the copyright.
And that's a picture that's changed my life forever irrevocably.
I heard it was his idea, too.
Well, we kind of, I mean, I wanted to do a photo to shame Trump.
Trump with a bloody butt would have been fine, I think.
I'm sure it's quite crusty down there.
I'm sure.
I don't know how Melanie puts up with it.
I think he and Melanie have some written statement where it's like a once a year thing.
They probably don't even sleep, but they don't sleep in the same bed, I'm sure.
What if she gives herself Rohypnol?
She might roofie herself.
Oh, my goodness.
What?
I have no fear anymore.
I do not have one **** left to give.
I don't.
There you go.
Give me a dollar.
I just don't give a ****.
Not one.
I don't give a **** anymore.
So what happened in Houston?
You got to explain that story.
So you're doing your show and somebody jumps up out the crowd?
Every show there's death threats.
All right.
There was a protest in Charlotte, which can I have a little props just for going to Charlotte?
If you want to just look up like Trumper at Kathy Griffin show.
He's got a MAGA hat.
First giveaway.
He's wearing a shirt that he must have had custom made.
God love him.
With nothing but pictures of Trump all over his shirt.
And then,
he just starts waving a knife.
Outside and front.
And luckily, I don't mean to sound
like the fifth runner up on American Idol,
but I do have the greatest fans in the world.
I had people that
don't need to be doing this, like people that are just
leaving a show, they were like
calling the police and they got photos of this guy and video
and stuff like that.
But I just kind of need to keep getting out there like this and telling folks
it's not over.
We have more with Kathy Griffin.
When we come back,
don't move.
It's the breakfast club.
Good morning.
The breakfast club.
Morning,
everybody is DJ envy.
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Comedian Kathy Griffin's in the building.
Yee.
So, Kathy, let's talk about Les Moonves for a second.
Oh, f*** him.
Right?
Can you believe this guy?
And that's another guy, you know, very Trumpian in that way.
I mean, I haven't been on CBS for a while.
So, when they were, you know, this is an interesting story.
When they were doing The Late Show with Craig Ferguson, I like Craig.
I did the show many times.
And one night he said, I was doing a talk show on Bravo for two years, which got canceled because Andy Cohen hates me.
And he also is lacking a skill set.
He tried to sniff cocaine with you too, but we'll talk about that.
Yeah, I'm not.
That was weird to me.
Stay the course.
Okay.
So anyway, what happened was I got like a little bit of a tip that Craig Ferguson was
tired of doing the show.
And as a female, a lot of people don't realize, honestly, it hasn't been since the deer departed
Joan Rivers that a female has had a network nightly late night talker.
And so I lobbied hard to try to get that show. And a guy at CAA, an agent named Jeff Jacobs
said, oh, Leslie said they're not considering females at this time. I go, well, you know,
that's illegal to even say. I heard he auditioned some, but he already knew that they weren't going
to get it. Right. And so I'm going to be honest. I started thinking, OK, I'm not going to get the
job. Clearly, they're going to think I'm too old and too ugly. My nose is too big.
All the stuff I've been told my whole career.
So I'm not kidding.
I sort of started thinking, I think Aisha Tyler would have been great for that job.
Nothing against James Corden.
I didn't even know who he was.
But I thought Aisha is so smart.
She was already on the talk.
I actually took her out to dinner and I go, are you like gunning for that job?
Because I think you'd be perfect.
Like you're smart.
You're a woman of color.
Let's make some history.
And she said, I met three times and nothing happened.
And I thought, I wonder if they took those meetings because they thought, what if Big Mouth Kathy Griffin someday says that they said we're not even considering females.
Wow.
By the way, she's going to kill me for revealing this. And by the way, after I was
finally taken off the no-fly list, I couldn't get
any work here because so many people
thought I was a nicest.
So I went overseas.
You have a big bag over there. What's in that bag?
What is it in that bag?
There's just bowling balls.
It's really heavy.
But anyway, so I was able to work overseas
and I, well, oddly enough, the picture that almost took me down was the picture that allowed me to truly tour the world.
I went everywhere from Auckland, New Zealand to Reykjavik, Iceland.
But they put me on the freaking Interpol list.
So I was detained.
I played 15 countries in 23 cities.
I was detained at every single airport.
They take your passport.
They take your phone. They take your phone.
They go away for an indeterminate amount of time.
Like I did a show at, you know, let's say I was in Sydney, right?
So I got to do a show at the Sydney Opera House.
If I was leaving Sydney to go to whatever my country was next, I would have to alert two journalists in Australia, two journalists in the country I was going to.
And I had a former CIA officer that i was talking with
i would give him my itinerary so that whenever stuff would go down number one i was terrified
of ever missing a show to this day i don't know what the government put on my freaking passport
right but it makes everybody's eyes turn into pinwheels whenever they scan it yeah they treated
you like you you got me too yeah like you're. Yeah. It's never happened in the history of this
country. I would tell you the closest time
it's ever happened is there was an amazing
triple threat actress named Eartha Kitt.
Younger people might know her as one of the cat
women on the Batman series, but
she was singer, dancer, Broadway
actress, star, and very
famously in 1965,
Lady Bird Johnson, who
a lot of liberals think LBJ, Civil Rights Act, that's great.
Lady Bird Johnson invited to the White House a group of African-Americans, Harry Belafonte, etc., to express how they felt about how the movement was going about civil rights movement.
So Eartha Kitt was honest and she was honest about what it's like to be a black woman in this industry at that time and whatever she said to lady bird lady bird johnson got her so blacklisted she had to leave
the country for decades i'm gonna look that up she was finally able to come back and like eddie
murphy put her in boomerang and that was great mark but that's what it yeah that's what it takes
what's your issue with uh andy cohen who's a friend oh andy cohen as okay well good for you
um what yeah what's
his skill set what do you think his skill set is okay thanks anyway so look i very well versed on
the real housewives oh good for him which is a show that they co-opted from a show called desperate
housewives on like if you're in there if you're there watch what happens live so much happens so
he's good at like getting in and out you'd be getting people drunk and getting them to say things that then get them in trouble.
And then he calls Radar Online.
He goes, hello, it's not Andy Cohen.
Allegedly.
But no, my issue is, look, I was at NBCUniversal for a long time.
My executive there was Jeff Zucker.
He was tough on me the whole time.
I was paid a fraction of what the guys got.
So my joke is when I hear women saying they get 80 cents on the dollar, I go, where do I sign up?
Right.
When you're a female comic, try five cents on the dollar.
And what's the cocaine story?
Oh, it's just that.
I only did that.
Tell us what the issue is with it.
Oh, okay.
Well, first of all, when I started, he was like, I think it was in the publicity department.
And I didn't know he was like, he was basically trying to be me.
Like, and even in his books, he steals some of my jokes.
And when he does the tour with my former friend, Anderson Cooper,
he does some of my jokes on the tour.
And their tour is, first of all, watch what happens live.
None of the questions are real.
They're not from Twitter.
Michael Davies, the producer, told me that.
He said the staff just writes them.
And I did the show twice.
And, you know, I don't trust him.
And so it's unprecedented in the history of television that the guy who decides which shows get to stay on the network fires me but gives himself a show that gets magically picked up every single year.
So I think that he's just not a trustworthy, honest guy.
I don't think he's talented.
He's not a comic.
He didn't earn it.
He's been riding on people's coattails.
And, you know...
He feels like you don't like him because he replaced you
on the New Year thing and he had nothing to do with it.
Oh, it was long before that. He was just an awful boss.
You know, I remember for six years I did my life
on the D-list for eight episodes
a year and they would, you know, we would
shoot for six months.
And, you know, that was even prior to
The Housewives. They had never even done a special.
I taught them how to do a standard special.
You just don't f*** with Andy Cohen.
I'll f*** with Andy Cohen. You think I'm afraid of him?
No, I mean like, we don't
f*** with him. We don't like him. Hip hop lingo.
Oh, okay, because white people would just say f*** him.
Yeah, exactly. He tried to sniff coke
with you too, though. Well, I'm just saying,
I'm not a prude, but
the reason I... I'll tell you why I took a shit with that. You don't have to be a prude yeah but if i know the reason i i'll tell
you why i took you don't have to be a prude to not sniff coke all right no but i just want to say
if i first of all like i said i did have a talk show for two years on bravo which of course they
can't remember because we were competing for guests and obviously i wasn't going to win that
battle but if i had ever offered you know one of my guests j Jane Fonda or T.I., if I ever offered them Coke before taping
and it got out, I would be way more ruined than the Trump picture. Like, I just I want to point
out because there's a double standard where there's such a big and that's a big topic of the
day, as you know, double standards. And that was what bothered me. And that's what I think people
should know is that, you know know that kind of behavior would never
be tolerated by a female and the other thing I want to say is I think that women in particular
have to be more honest about their finances because I think that's one way that guys can
keep us down the reason I'm telling you this is I have a reason I've probably made about 75 million
dollars over the 40 years of my career I have paid all these representatives 10%. And they all dumped me.
Wow.
They all dumped me because of a photo.
A photo that is totally covered by the First Amendment, whether you like it or not.
They all took my money when it was easy.
But when the going got rough, they all flew the coop.
So nobody stood by your side that was part of your team.
Have you seen me on TV?
No.
No.
You said former friend Anderson Cooper.
Yeah, because he turned on me that very day.
Wow. And he made a tweet. He said, Kathy Griffin's disgusting. Wow. He didn't give me Cooper. Yeah, because he turned on me that very day. Wow.
And he made a tweet.
He said, Kathy Griffin's disgusting.
Wow.
He didn't give me a call.
He didn't have to.
Yeah, we did CNN for 10 years.
And let me tell you something.
And I know I'm talking about misogyny a lot and all that stuff.
But the first two years I did CNN out of 10 years, it didn't even occur to me to ask to be paid.
Like, that's the thing.
You never got paid for New Year's?
The first two years.
Shouldn't your agent have negotiated that?
Honey.
Now, you've...
No, hold on.
Anderson Cooper.
So, yeah, he tweeted, and then...
So, Don Jr. tweeting,
and it actually getting me fired
is just not how it's supposed to go here.
And I just wish that Anderson Cooper
had not jumped on that bandwagon.
And Jake Tapper already had come after me.
He didn't have to say anything.
Yeah.
Did he ever reach out to you
after that? About five months later, and it was
like a pretty unfriendly text.
Really? What did he say? Yeah, he was
like, how could you have put me in that position?
How did you put him in a position? I didn't.
Alright, we have more with Kathy Griffin. When
we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ
Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.
Kathy Griffin's in the building.
Charlamagne?
What are your feelings on Harvey Levin from TMZ?
I hate Harvey Levin.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's a gay guy who's a MAGA.
Like, he's a hardcore Trumper.
You know, he hates Trump now, allegedly.
Let me tell you something about TMZ.
Why would he hate Trump now?
Because he said he can't stand by anything that Trump said.
If you notice, they've kind of like...
He'll go whichever way the wind blows.
Harvey goes whichever way the wind blows.
But, you know, clickbait is one thing.
But when you start putting people in real physical danger, you know, it's another.
But also, I just think it's ironic that he's a gay guy.
And I actually said to him one time, what do you think the Republican Party holds for you?
Do you think they're going to have your back?
I said, Jefferson Beauregard Sessions is rolling back rights every day. And that's what you should be paying attention to. Right. But if you look at
that website and I've never said this before, but that website, I think, is highly misogynistic and
racist. And I'll tell you why. That website, if you look at people of color, they will show more
people of color getting into trouble, fights, mug shots, then they will show people of color doing something
good. I think Chris Brown would agree.
But I'm just saying, even
people of color that have done nothing wrong,
he'll just throw
unflattering photos up on purpose.
I'm asking you to just take a good hard look at that
website. And like I said, it's a fun guilty
pleasure. I get it. But really, look
at the way they treat women of a certain age and
people of color. It's very consistent.
You would think that women would have came to your defense.
No.
And that one hurts.
I don't even know.
I'm punchline.
What is your issue with Julie Chin?
No, I read that you said about Julie Chin.
Okay, so I wrote, okay, I DM'd her when the first day the Leslie News came out.
I DM'd her and I said, look, I don't want to throw the wife under the bus
if it was the husband.
You didn't want her to be affected by what he's done.
Because we don't know yet what she knew or didn't know.
And so I said to her, and I was really honest.
And so Julie, if you want to put out this DM,
I have no problem with it.
I said, look, I would love to come on the talk
and I promise I'm not going to bring up Leslie.
Like this has to be really hard for you.
So she never responded.
Okay, that's fine.
And then I just started hearing more of the stuff about Les.
And I cannot tell you how much of that sort of thing has happened to me during my career.
Wow.
You know, and remember, I was born in 1960.
So all the stuff that we're finally talking about now, you know, those of us a certain age, we're just used to it.
Hearing people.
There was a guy named Mike Medavoy, really powerful guy. He sat me down one time down one time i think 15 years ago and he goes you're not going to be able to make a
living you're not likable so you know i've been dealing with that my whole career how did the
lgbt people feel about you um not liking andy cohen harvey levin and anderson cooper those like
top tier gays right uh the gays had my back. Okay. Gays and black Twitter had my back.
And I am not kidding.
From day one, you know, the African-American community has been so good to me because you
guys get it.
To be disenfranchised, to be looked at as something that you're not.
To be suppressed by 60-year-old white men.
To have your living taken away from you.
And not like Donald Trump.
Yes.
You get it.
Yes.
Yes.
Has Julie Chen reached out to you?
I think that
she will have to make a statement.
The jury's out. Like, she needs
to step up as a woman and for women of color
and go, this is not okay or acceptable.
And they're bringing up the Janet Jackson situation
with Julie Chen as well. Okay. Let me tell you something.
I lived it. So when I read
that article, and it's funny,
I got to know a lot of journalists this year,
and I was very gratified to say to them,
this article is absolutely on track with what I have seen happen to many, many actresses and singers.
And I said, look at someone as giant, gigantically popular as Janet Jackson.
And I don't doubt a word of it.
So you got Leslie Moonves, this guy that's rubbing his
on people and trying to sexually
assault his own doctor at UCLA.
But he's going to take down Janet
Jackson because she didn't call
and cry.
He wanted a tearful cry.
And what about Timberlake? F*** him too.
Timberlake calls and sobs to
Leslie Moonves. F*** you, Leslie.
F*** them all. I don't give a s sobs to Leslie Moonves. F*** you, Leslie. F*** them all.
I don't give a s*** anymore.
I saw that email that an exec from CBS wanted you to write to Trump.
Yeah.
He's on the board of directors.
He's not even...
Talk about a dinosaur.
What's his name?
Arnie Copelson.
Okay.
And he was someone that I actually knew personally.
And I remember, like, this is a typical conversation that happened, honestly, six months before the photo.
And he wanted to reboot The Fugitive. happened, honestly, six months before the photo.
And he wanted to reboot The Fugitive.
He produced The Fugitive, the original movie with Harrison Ford.
So he starts telling me at dinner at this restaurant and he says, we're going to reboot it. And we've got Harrison and, you know, we've got to find the female that was his wife who gets killed.
It's not a spoiler early on in the film.
And I said, well, Sheilaee LaWard, who played it
in the original, is amazing and
looks great and why don't you, if you
really want to reboot the movie with Harrison,
he's like, she's not f***able anymore. I go, honey,
you've never been f***able. And so
every time I would name a female,
he'd go, not f***able.
What do you do with this? Honey,
it was six months before
the Trump photo. It was 2017.
Oh, my gosh.
So I'm just telling you, I am the one, and nobody's going to support me,
but I'm the one bad bitch who's going to stand here and go,
don't be thinking Hollywood's all liberal and everything's okay now
and Oscar's so white.
No, they're behind, and Oscar's so white is amazing
because it forced them.
And what I have learned is
you can do petitions and march
and that's all great.
But until you basically dox these mother******
the way I was,
where my address was put online,
my mother got death threats
in her retirement village.
She's 98 years old.
My sister got death threats
in the hospital.
She was in the hospital for cancer.
And she got death threats until the day she died.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Sorry.
It's okay.
I meant to keep it light, but.
No, it's fine.
Please.
I just want people to know, like, these Trumpers, they get mobilized.
Don't let them see you down, though.
Even me as a white person, like, I didn't know white people were this bad and racist.
Really?
Yes. Yes. I did not know that. When you're. Like, I didn't know white people were this f***ing bad and racist. Really? Yes.
Yes.
I did not know that.
When you're,
well, you know this,
when you're in the arts,
it's different.
When you start out the gate,
you're hanging with gay people
and black people
and Asian people
and that's kind of
the great thing about the arts.
So, I'll tell you.
Is this going to be
a movie or something?
Nobody will make,
nobody has the balls
to do a special?
Yeah.
I think it's going to come back.
I love your word, yeah, because I want to stay hopeful.
I want to say, oh, it's going to come back around.
And you got your own money, so you can do things on your own as well.
That's Kathy to be honest.
But that's what I want to say to your listeners.
Keep your money.
You never know when it's going to be a rainy day.
And honey, I had a monsoon.
Now, why did you apologize in the first place?
Because you're so...
I'll tell you why.
Rosie O'Donnell called me, and she is the expert at being trolled by Donald Trump.
Like, he's been after her for 12 years.
And she said, you've got to apologize.
People think you're really, really an ISIS.
And I thought she was kidding, and I hung up.
I was like, I'll talk to you later.
You're right.
You know comics.
Good one.
And then she called back, and she said a famous line.
She said, what if Daniel Pearl's mother saw this?
He's a journalist that was literally decapitated. And I have to say, that's what made me do the apology. And I thought,
I get it. That could be traumatizing. Making light of decapitation. That's right. And so
honestly, it was an apology almost for her alone. And it was in fact, Jim Carrey, who said,
you know, Kathy, at the end of this this you're going to have a story that any
comic would give their right arm to have.
Well the Breakfast Club got you back. Thank you!
Thank you for coming. Give us some of those dates that you have.
Oh, okay.
I'm going to White House to be emailing iHeart today.

We've had some very explosive people where they're going to be like
nope, Kathy Griffin was the last girl.

I mean, I have such a long list.
Anybody you talk, any of these guys you don't like, just call them f***boys.

There you go.
That's the term.
Well, thank you for joining us.
We appreciate it.
You guys are awesome.
I'm such a fan.
I hope you mean it.
Yes, we do.
All right.
Thanks, you guys.
All right.
It's Kathy Griffin.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Eminem.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Yes, so Eminem sat down with Sway on Shea 45
and talked about why he put out the Kamikaze album.
Here's what happened.
I feel like the way the climate is right now,
if you give people enough time to,
I got an album coming out in two months,
you give people time to say,
man, he better have a song like this or I ain't f***ing with it.
When the revival track list came down the pipe,
it was like, overwhelmingly, this s*** is going to be trash.
We know why he put out the Kamikaze album, though, because he's angry.
He was pissed off.
He didn't like the reaction to, what was the name of that album before that?
Relapse?
I don't think he liked your revival.
You guys' reaction to his album.
He said that, though.
Yeah, that's the reason why.
He said that during the Sway interview.
Right.
And, you know, he talks about all the albums that he's made and all of that.
And, by the way, this interview is 15 minutes, and there is going to be a part two where
he'll address other things like Joe Button.
And also, why did he have an issue with Machine Gun Kelly?
Well, here's what he had to say about that and about Machine Gun Kelly's diss song.
You know, you go down the wormhole of YouTube and whatever, right?
So I see Machine Gun Kelly talks about Eminem's daughter, whatever, right?
So what the fuck? Click on it.
Then he starts doing a press run, basically, about Hailey. I'm like, what the fuck? Click on it. Then he starts doing a press run, basically, about Haley.
I'm like, what the fuck?
Yo, chill, right?
That's not why I dissed him.
The reason I dissed him is actually a lot more petty than that.
Now I'm in this weird thing because I'm like, I got to answer this mother.
When is Eminem going to reply to Machine Gun Kelly, though?
We put everybody else on the clock.
Eminem has been a whole week in some change, okay?
I thought that beat was over.
Like, it's over for me.
I mean, I think MGK
wants a response.
Maybe.
Well, it looks like
maybe he will be,
so you got to tune in to part two
to find out exactly
what he has to say
about Machine Gun Kelly.
Well, Em better catch a body.
If Em don't catch a body,
I'm going to be disappointed.
He took a whole week.
MGK went in, too.
That's what I'm saying.
We're not going to sit here
and act like MGK didn't go in, bro.
He did go in.
I don't think Eminem
really cares if people are like, oh, he took a week, he took this long. He just what I'm saying. We're not going to sit here and act like MGK didn't go in, bro. He did go in. I don't think Eminem really cares if people are like,
oh, he took a week. He took this long. He just does what he
wants. We make excuses.
Why do you make so much excuses?
Everybody else we put on the clock. 24 hours.
No, you put them on the clock.
I never put anybody on the clock.
Eminem's a battle rapper. Why is Eminem an exception?
He ain't no exception. He's a battle rapper. He ain't going to waste
no time. Right, so we'll see what happens. Maybe
he has something ready and loaded to go
You know
You never know
Alright now
Let's discuss Bobby Brown
He put out his first single
In six years
It's called Like Bobby
Let me know what you guys think
When God has a plan
You don't ask why
I've been living deep
In my redemption
Swear to God
He got me on a mission
I'm coming back
I got what's never missing
I gotta do what I do I gotta be what I be They got me on a mission. I'm coming back. I got what's never missing.
I got to do what I do.
I got to be what I be.
Because in the end, I got to be real like Bobby B.
And everybody going to talk about it. And I don't really give a f*** about it.
Because in the end, I got to be real like Bobby B.
What did y'all think?
I wasn't here when you guys watched the Bobby Brown story, so.
I love Bobby Brown, but I'm going to just keep listening to Don't Be Cruel.
My prerogatives.
On our own.
You like it?
Rock with you.
Nah, I ain't.
Well, he's addressing all the haters and the gossipers and all of that.
Nah, nah, nah.
So I guess that means, I guess you know.
I love Bobby.
I don't know where he's from.
You see how I'm doing my job?
Nah, nah, nah.
No, you stop it.
Leave Bobby alone.
Nah, I don't want him.
All right, and Nicki Minaj.
Let's talk about these reports now.
Her Queen Radio show,
they're saying that her number's quadrupled
over the past week,
and people are now streaming her album even more.
The show has been number one on Apple Music,
and all the publicity that she's getting
from all the drama and all of these antics and everything,
I guess it's doing well for her numbers-wise.
Oh, good.
Drop on the clues box for Nicki Minaj,
because that's what she's doing it for.
She's doing it to promote Queen Radio. She's doing well for her numbers-wise. Oh, good. Drop on the clues box for Nicki Minaj because that's what she's doing it for. She's doing it to promote Queen Radio.
She's doing it to sell records.
But then what happens when the drama stops?
And then that's it.
On to the next album cycle.
On to whatever else you got coming up next.
We know why she's doing this.
And I know you guys watched the Barbie Dreams video,
so what'd you think of that?
I didn't see the Barbie Dreams video.
Damn, you guys got to do your Googles.
It was awkward and uncomfortable for me.
Man, stop it, man. You're taking your hate of Nicki too far. Why was it awkward and uncomfortable? I didn't see the Barbie Dreams video. Damn, you guys got to do your Googles. It was awkward and uncomfortable for me. Man, stop it, man.
You're taking your hate of Nicki too far.
No, I'm going to stop and tell you why.
Why was it awkward and uncomfortable?
I'm going to tell you why.
This guy is so crazy.
Because it's almost like watching strip teasing.
Oh, you ain't see it.
Nicki been doing this her whole career.
Nah, not like this.
Stop it, man.
This is a little different.
Well, Charlamagne, in fairness, you haven't seen it.
I haven't seen it, but come on.
Okay, so watch it first.
This is like if you could see a female stripping the whole video.
It's a dope video.
When has Nicki not been doing this?
What is she doing?
Twerking in the video?
Popping her ass?
A little bit of that.
She's been doing that her whole career.
Have you ever seen an Anaconda video?
Stop, man.
There was other people in Anaconda.
It's just her.
You watch the video and you want to see what I'm talking about.
Listen, you're taking your hate of Nicki a little too far.
No, I don't hate Nicki.
Okay.
I don't hate her.
How much did Atlantic pay you for this?
How much did Atlantic pay you to say that?
All right.
Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
Oh, my goodness.
The video was all right.
It was just, you know, as a married man, it was a...
Oh, my God.
As a married man, it's uncomfortable for you to watch a half-naked woman twerk her ass.
Okay.
All right.
You know what?
Forget y'all.
Who you giving that donk? You need to see Sucka at a week war. Well, twerk her ass. Okay. All right. You know what? Forget y'all. Who you giving that donkey?
You need to see Sucka at a week war.
Speaking of donkeys.
Who you giving that donkey to?
Four after the hour is going to a crack ass cracker white devil.
Listen, I know y'all get mad at me because y'all say I talk about race all the time.
Sometimes I like to present scenarios to you people.
And I want to see how you react to them.
Because if you don't agree that this man that I'm about to give
is a donkey to, is a human jar of Hellman's,
then it says a lot about you.
All right, well, pull the mayonnaise out and let's get to it.
Donkey of the Day is up next.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Come on in.
This don't be a donkey.
Because right now you want some real donkey.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey man, hit me with the heel.
Did she get donkey in the name please, Delisa?
Absolutely.
I have become donkey of the day.
At the breakfast club, bitches.
You're a donkey.
Yes, Donkey of the Day for Wednesday, September 12th goes to a man in the great state of Florida.
Now you know what your Uncle Sharla always tells you.
The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.
And this man, Don Crandall, is no exception.
Now, every day on my social media,
I get a bunch of people saying to me,
Charlamagne, the God is a racist. He's a
race baiter. All he talks about is race, and why
does he have that tub of Hellman's? Hold on.
Oh, boy. Oh, my gosh.
All right. Are you opening yet?
I want to know what it smells like.
All right. Why does he have a white tears mug?
Okay.
Charlemagne hates white people.
He hates Post Malone.
And I say to each and every one of you, wipe your mayonnaise-flavored tears with your MAGA hats and relax.
Okay?
This is never about all white people.
This is about racist bigots.
And if I slander a racist bigot and you get offended, always remember that a hit jar of Hellman's will holler.
Now, if you don't understand what I just said, let me unpack it for you.
Whenever you hear me, Charlemagne Tha God, slandering a racist white bigot,
you should agree.
If you don't agree, then you are probably a racist bigot too.
Now, let's see how you feel about the curious case
of a cracker-ass cracker named Don Crandall.
All right, now Twitter is the most anxiety-inducing app on the Internet.
I have no facts to back that up, just my observation.
But this time Twitter actually was used for good
because this encounter between four black students from Florida A&M University,
FAMU, drop on the clues bomb for FAMU, man.
This encounter between four FAMU students and a white man went digital
because one of the students, Isaiah Butterfield,
was smart enough to pull out his phone and make sure this white devil went
viral! Now here's the scene.
Four students, Isaiah Butterfield,
Stephen Brooks, Joshua Cosby,
and Fitzroy Roden, were entering a student
housing complex on Saturday for their
friend to let them in a party.
Don Crandall, who also wasn't
a resident of the building, told them they weren't
getting into the building. He actually went
inside and locked the door. Now, if you watch
this video, Revolt TV should
be putting it up. You can see that Don
Crandall is an older white man telling these
four students they can't get in the
studio complex. Let's hear a
little bit of it, please.
Do you own the building?
Let me know.
Let me be clear.
You ain't getting in this elevator.
Let me know why.
Why we not?
Because she don't belong in the building.
You got a key for this building?
I'm not with him.
He got a key.
You think I'm kidding?
No, no, no.
Bro, I gave you.
Sir, you bring out your gun.
What's your purpose?
Oh, I'm sorry.
We're going about our day.
We're going about our day.
We're going about our day.
Are you serious?
First of all, Don, why are you here?
Okay, we are students going into a student complex.
You are not a resident of this building, Don.
You're not a student, and they don't do mayonnaise deliveries on Saturdays.
So why are you here?
But wait, it gets worse, all right?
Don told me they can't get in the building.
You heard that.
Isaiah Butterfield said they just sat there confused,
wondering why this mad jar miracle whip was even talking to them.
Then after Don Crandall locked himself in to keep them out,
he came out again to tell them, find another elevator.
You can't get on this one.
Now, during this whole process, a white ally came and used his privilege
to try to combat this prejudice.
A white guy who they called Chad told Don Crandall to keep it moving,
told him to keep walking, and just go about his day,
a.k.a. knock this crack-ass cracker racist stuff off, you're embarrassing us.
When the four students asked why they couldn't use this elevator
and get in the building, you heard Don Crandall,
who I repeat wasn't even a resident of the building,
himself said, because you don't belong in this building,
before adding you ain't got a key for the building,
you don't belong in the elevator, and then this happened.
Let's go to WXTL ABC 27 for the report, please. You can see a man
holding a gun as he blocks a group of men from taking the elevator. Isaiah Butterfield said he
and these three friends from FAMU were at Stadium Center Apartments early Saturday morning to see a
friend who just moved in. The students told us a man approached them to tell them they weren't
getting on the elevator he was taking. It's student housing, so I'm like, sir have a key because you're kind of older than us we're college students we're 20 21
we're students and you look like you're in your mid 40s. When the man shows them what he says is
his key he has a gun in his other hand. So who's the man in the video holding the gun? Several
people on social media say his name is Don Crandall and he's a manager of this hotel. This guy Don Crandall was the general manager of a local hotel, Baymont by Wyndham.
When ABC News reached out to the hotel for comment, the hotel confirmed his identity
and said he was no longer working there, and he does not represent the values of our company
and how others should be treated, and they do not stand behind the actions of our former general manager.
And our team has gone ahead and took the actions that were necessary to uphold
our beliefs, so clearly he's been fired.
See, how do y'all
want me to not talk about
race when things like this are happening in our
society? How can you be upset at me
for calling a racist
bigot, crack-ass, cracker, white devil,
human jar, Hellman's a racist
bigot, crack-ass, cracker, white devil,
human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, cracker, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, white devil, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, white devil, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, white devil, white devil, human jar, Hellman's a racist bigot, white devil, white devil, human jar, Hellmans are racist. Bigot, crack ass cracker, white devil human jar of Hellmans. Alright.
This man. Oh, you
want to defend him? Nope. Oh. This man
has no socially redeeming qualities.
And if me calling Don Crandall all those
things makes you madder
than what Don Crandall actually did,
then you are part
of the problem. And maybe
your heart pumps mayonnaise too.
Please let Kathy Griffin give Don Crandall
the biggest hee-haw. Please give this giant
jar of mayo the biggest hee-haw.
Alright.
Alright. Well, thank you
for that donkey of the day. You mad?
Huh? Cracker ass cracker.
Are you mad? Alright. No, F
that. Because there's a difference between
good white people and cracker ass crackers.
So if you're hearing this donkey of the day and you're more mad at me saying crack-ass cracker
than you are what that man actually did, you're part of the problem.
Crack-ass cracker!
And I'm holding your trophy up.
Are you done?
Why are you giggling so much?
Because you're funny, man.
You're funny.
My goodness.
All right.
Thank you for that donkey of the day.

We'll bleep your name out.
Okay.
Yeah, we'll take it out.
Don't worry.
What's your question?
Okay, so I used to date this woman, right?
And we were close.
It didn't work out.
And now we're just really cool.
Okay.
So when I moved on,
I started dating this other woman.
Now, I haven't slept with her or anything,
but she has been trying to get intimate.
And I've been holding back
because the woman that I dated previously
is her close aunt.
Like, they hang out and everything.
Wow.
So clearly her aunt never talked about you.
Her aunt didn't talk about you. Oh, okay, the aunt knows, but the niece doesn't know.
She doesn't.
And the aunt is okay with it.
She's like, if you don't say nothing, I won't.
But they like, when she go out, they're together sometimes.
I think you have to tell her, man.
You can't start off a relationship with the foundation of dishonesty.
But her aunt's cool with no, like, should I trust that she won't say anything?
You have to say something.
Okay, so in the event that I say something, and she's hurt, you know, because I was like the woman that I'm with now.
Okay.
Listen, first of all, this happened before her.
It's not like you cheated on her with her aunt and knew that was her aunt.
This is a situation where you dated somebody.
It didn't work out.
You guys did not end on bad terms, but you're just giving her the heads up.
As long as the aunt is okay with the fact that you're dating her niece
and is not going to say that you are a terrible person or any of those things,
then hopefully it's not a problem.
But imagine being in a relationship
and having to constantly think,
is this going to come out?
When is this going to come out?
You have to be honest.
And in the beginning of a relationship,
that's the real time to be honest.
What is there a reason to lie for?
Right, right.
But it's kind of like,
it's scary because one time
we were at that,
oh, I can't say what was right,
but one time we were somewhere and she was like, you't say what we were at. But one time we were somewhere
and she was like,
you know,
I kind of hit it off.
Y'all got like
a good chemistry.
That's cool.
You and my mom
don't even get along
like that.
So now if I tell her
things, she'll be like,
oh, that's fine.
Oh, you know,
I'm a teller.
You have to tell her.
Just tell her.
And tell her it was hard
for you to tell her.
She'll understand that.
Listen, guys,
I can't tell you
way worse stuff.
I'm married.
You know, like there's way worse things.
If the worst thing right now is that you dated her aunt before and it didn't work out, but you really like her, that's not that bad.
You know what?
I appreciate that.
I'm glad to be like you.
All right.
There you go.
I hope everything works out.
Anonymous.
All right.
Did I mean anonymous?
Sorry.
That's too loud.
We'll bleep it out.
We'll bleep it out.
He's a jerk. All right. Ask Yee. 800-585-1051. We'll bleep it out. We'll bleep it out.
He's a jerk.
All right.
Ask Yee.
800-585-1051.
If you got a question for Yee, hit her up now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
How you doing?
This is Jay.
Jay, what's your question for Yee, bro?
I'm in a situation to where I've been in a relationship for like a year.
And she's with a retired football, Giants football player.
And she told me the whole time, you know, but we have fell in love.
And then I had started being blocked, you know, at certain times of the day or every weekend. And I ended up moving down there for her.
Drove my car all the way down to Florida, you know, for her to start a new life.
You know, long story short, we've been back and forth arguing a lot.
She's like, oh, I'm going to leave him.
I'm going to leave him.
You know, and she never ended up leaving him.
And then, you know, she would text me and call me like, yo, I miss you.
I love you.
I want to be with you.
And I'm like, I'm already in feelings wise.
Like I'm being loyal to her while she's doing whatever she got to do.
Wow.
So you're in a relationship, but she's not in a relationship with you, basically.
Like, it's like this.
When we first met, she told me, I'm in a relationship with this retired football player.
You were the side piece.
And you were okay with that.
And then you fell in love.
Yeah, like, I was like, all right, whatever.
I didn't think I would fall in love. So after me and her and chilling a couple times, we you fell in love. Yeah, like, I was like, alright, whatever. I didn't think I would fall in love. So after
me and her and chilling a couple times,
we both fell in love.
She flying up to see me, I'm flying down
to see her, like, once a month. And then it's like,
you know what? I might as well, and I'm from
New York. So I'm like, I'm gonna move down
the floor. Are you a Giants fan? I can't
stand the Giants. Oh, shut up.
I'm not even gonna
lie. Is it because of her boyfriend? No, like, I was never really a Giants. Oh, shut up. I'm not even going to lie. Is it because
of her boyfriend?
No, like,
I was never really
a Giants fan.
Oh, right.
The only thing is,
I used to work
in the restaurant industry
and I know him
from when he used to
come in the restaurant.
So it's such a small world.
What's his name?
If he sees me,
he won't know me by name,
but he'll be like,
yo, you look mad familiar.
Okay.
You know what I'm saying? So basically
she's having the best of both worlds right now.
She's living with her retired New York Giants
player, living it up, and then
she's got you to provide some penis. What's his
name? I won't give out no names,
but he just got arrested
not too long ago down in Florida.
But listen, you get what you settle for.
Okay? So if you're settling for
being that guy that she could
talk to, have fun with, have
sex with, have this chemistry with,
but still live her stable life with
her man, and you're
okay with that, which you were at first,
and now you're not, and she's telling you she's gonna leave him,
you can tell she's not about to leave him,
then that's what you're gonna get, because
you're settling for it. You moved for
her before she even left him.
Twice. Twice I did it.
I drove down there.
Her father even told me, I'll be honest with you, you seem like a good kid,
but that's like falling in love with a call girl who got a pimp.
Damn, her father told you that, Jay?
All the signs are there.
But my whole thing is this, Jay.
You knew what you were getting yourself into, and she's just really playing you.
You're doing whatever it is that she wants you to do.
She's making you these promises that she has no intentions of keeping,
and you're still sticking around for it.
That's a big boy.
You better be careful, boy.
He catch you, boy.
He's a big boy.
Why do you think she doesn't want to leave him?
She's used to that lifestyle.
Exactly.
When we first met, she told me, she goes,
look, I'm in a lifestyle that I thought that I would like, but I want more than that.
Like, I just want to be loved.
And I believed her because I told her, I said, look, I don't got nothing to off you.
You know what I mean?
I'm a hardworking man, but.
Listen, she's getting back at him with somebody who's safe and you're that safety person.
So he's doing whatever he wants to do.
Maybe they're not getting along the way they should. So the way that she is able to cope with all of this is that she has you as her side piece
who actually treats her like the queen that she wants to be treated like at home, but she isn't.
So you're the person that's providing that.
Why would she leave her, man?
You do everything that she wants you to do anyway.
Why would I leave him?
True.
So that's a decision you have to make for yourself, Jay.
If you want to be in a real relationship with somebody who loves you back and can give you everything you need.
You know how nice it'll be for you to not have to run around and hide and cater to somebody and see them only when they want to see you and call them only when they're available because the other person's not around?
Nobody wants to live their life like that.
Yeah.
And I'm up here doing everything I can to, you know, prosper myself.
Jay, you could give somebody else that energy and they'll give it right back to you.
That's what you need. You're right. Be a good man for somebody else that energy and they'll give it right back to you. That's what you need.
You're right.
Be a good man for somebody
who's a good woman.
Wow, you're right.
And be careful
because if he ever catch you,
he gonna bust your ass, brother.
He's big, of course.
Who that show, man?
No, that's Envy.
That's Envy.
All right, well, thank you.
Update us and let us know
what happened.
I definitely will.
Thank you.
I appreciate y'all.
Be careful.
All right.
So many women out here looking for
a good man and he's wasting himself.
Oh my goodness. Alright, well. We got
rumors on the way, Ye? Yes, let's talk about
Mac Miller. We'll talk about his music
after his untimely passing.
We'll tell you how that affected his music sales.
Alright, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
I don't want to get too attached, but...
I don't want to get too attached, but I already am
because I let you have sex with me with no condom.
What happened now?
What?
What?
Who pounded you out?
Never mind.
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 about our guy, Safaree.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is The Rumor Report.
Talk to him.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Man, now Safaree heard himself.
He has fractured part of his body.
Here's what he had to say.
I don't know if me doing the bruck up really bruck me up but doctor just told me they
found a fracture in my neck. I will not be doing the bruck up anymore. I don't know how it
happened but I need to see who I can sue. We need to like check in with Safari once a week about all the drama he has.
Let the record show it's impossible for a Jamaican not to do the bruck up. Okay? It's just a natural rhythm for them. You know how to do the bruck up, Charlamagne?
I'm not Jamaican.
It's just a natural rhythm for them, okay?
They can't help it.
He's funny.
And so far, I deserve to be in the hospital after I saw him with a crop top trench coat on.
What was that?
What was that?
Why did you have on a crop top trench coat?
I don't know.
I was confused.
Well, yeah.
I didn't see that picture.
All right.
That looks stupid.
Now, Nicki Minaj, if you guys recall, she said she was going to give Jeffrey Owens, the actor, Elvin, from the Cosby show, $25,000.
Here's what she said on her Queen Radio show.
That man is now getting so many opportunities.
I personally want to donate on behalf of Queen Radio $25,000 to Jeffrey Owens today.
This man is a whole f***ing legend in these streets.
Well, according to his people, they have not had any contact with Nikki's people
about giving that $25,000.
Oh, he need that bread.
But they're saying he's not even looking for a handout,
and he doesn't even want the money.
He would actually probably donate it to charity.
And he has gotten a lot of opportunities.
As you know, he's going to be on Tyler Perry's show on OWN,
and he also has gotten another offer as well.
Didn't Nikki just say that?
Give us some time. It was say that? Give her some time.
It was last week.
Give her some time.
According to Nicki Minaj,
she said she's having a tough time getting in touch
with his team, but Jeffree's team
is saying that they are very easily reachable.
I heard
Cardi B and Atlantic Records are donating $50,000
and he'll have it today.
Why is everything about Cardi when we talk about Nicki, huh?
Alright, in the meantime... I'm just pissing off the
barbs, that's all. You know Nicki... Nothing personal.
You know Nicki Minaj always talks about her little
bae, right? Her new boy.
Well, she was spotted out and about
with Lewis Hamilton. So
maybe the two of them are potentially a couple
or maybe they were just grabbing a bite together.
I don't even know who that is. Yeah, who is Lewis Hamilton?
You don't know? Remember he dated Nicole Scherzinger?
He's like a...
Yeah, is it NASCAR? No.
It's not NASCAR? Okay, but he's a race car driver.
But he's pretty famous. Formula One.
Yeah, Formula One.
Google is celebrity network for me.
He's worth a lot. He looks like he's up there.
He's British.
He's definitely got some money.
Let me see if Nikki Hussleling right out here in this street.
I don't know.
Let me show she managing everything.
Her new booth thing.
How you spell it?
L-E-W-I-L-E.
Yeah, Lewis Hamilton.
As soon as I type Lewis, his name pop up.
Right up, right up.
Oh, he's pretty.
You don't remember what he did?
$285 million.
Dropping the clue ball for Nicki Minaj.
God damn it.
His salary is $50 million a year.
Okay, all right.
You guys, y'all know it's not all about money.
Queens all day.
It's about love.
Please.
It's about love.
Queens get the money.
It's not about money.
Queens get the money, Nikki.
Queens all day.
Queens all day.
You know what I'm saying?
All right.
Tekashi69 speaking on money.
He's got some new teeth.
Apparently, he went to a renowned Colombian dentist, Dr. Mario Montoya,
and he got his five-hour veneers procedure done.
This just happened yesterday, so now he is smiling big.
They said he paid about $12,000 for that procedure.
So he's got new teeth on top and on the bottom.
That's what you do when you get money.
You get new teeth.
Hey, Dr. Rubenstein, you got to give me a better deal, man.
You getting new teeth?
No, I'm getting new teeth for a friend.
You're buying somebody teeth?
I might have to send them to Columbia.
I might have to price tickets to Columbia.
That's what the guys are doing now?
They're buying teeth for people?
I'm doing that for a friend, yeah.
Wow, that's a nice gesture.
Yeah, absolutely.
I love my people.
I'll buy you some teeth.
Salute to Dr. Rubenstein.
After hearing that price, Dr. Rubenstein, I don't know.
I'm about to price tickets to Columbia.

Yeah, it's in Cali.

Yes, I did.
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, man.

All right, thank you, Yee.
It's your requested and happy birthday to 2 Chainz.
Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag.
This is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
