Starting point is 00:00:00 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.
Starting point is 00:00:16 What is that? Bullets. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. We need help! That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, 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
Starting point is 00:00:46 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. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:01:42 And Charlamagne Tha God. The Breakfast Club, bitches. The voice of the culture. People watch The Breakfast Club for like news and really be tuned in. It's one of my favorite shows to do. Just because y'all always keep it 100, y'all keep it real. They might not watch the news, but they're on Twitter. They're on Facebook.
Starting point is 00:02:00 They're, you know, they're listening to The Breakfast Club. Get your ass up. Good morning, Charlamagne. Good morning, Angelie. Peace to the planet. It's Friday. It's Friday, and for some people, it's payday. Is it payday for us? Yes. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Drop on the cruise bombs for us, goddammit. I love when it's Friday and we just got paid. I like when that direct deposit hit. You know what, man? I'm tired. And the reason I'm tired is because... You were watching the game last night? I did watch the game last night, but I also went to
Starting point is 00:02:49 therapy yesterday, and therapy is very exhausting sometimes, like just mentally and emotionally draining. And so after I did therapy, I thought I was going to go to the gym, but I was like, nah, I didn't have nothing left. I did run for 30 minutes, but that's about it. But I did stay up and watch the game last night. So yes, I am tired this morning.
Starting point is 00:03:06 How was Drake acting last night? Listen, I don't have no problem with Drake on the sidelines. Drake is a super fan. You know what I mean? I know he's a super fan of the Toronto Raptors, but you also got to keep in mind he's got a tattoo of Kevin Durant and Steph Curry's number on his arm as well. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:03:21 So if I was the Golden State Warriors, I wouldn't do anything but use Drake as motivation. They lost game one. I don't think the Raptors win any more games. But, hey, what do I mean? So if I was the Golden State Warriors, I wouldn't do anything but use Drake as motivation. They lost game one. I don't think the Raptors win any more games. But, hey, what do I know? I'm not a basketball analyst. I'm not Stephen A. Smith or Max Kellerman. All right.
Starting point is 00:03:34 Well, another thing that happened last night. Did you stay up to watch the spelling bee? What spelling bee? You know the national spelling bee? Scripps National Spelling Bee? Why would I watch the spelling bee when I was on the NBA finals game? It came on ESPN. How do you spell ESPN? I don't know. What happened? Why would I watch a spelling bee when I was an NBA finals game on? It came on ESPN. How do you spell ESPN?
Starting point is 00:03:47 I don't know. What happened? Why is that a thing? Well, it was historic. We'll talk about it. You know, you never watch the spelling bee? Yeah, Akilah. Dropping a clues bomb for Akilah.
Starting point is 00:03:56 She still the champ? Anyway, I'll tell you why it was unprecedented. It actually ended this morning. So imagine that with these kids. These kids are amazing. Yeah, but the thing about those spelling bees. They can spell all these words that you definitely, I can't, I don't even, I never even heard of them. That's my point.
Starting point is 00:04:11 They be, like, they be having to spell words that nobody's ever heard of. But they know them. And they're able to do it. Can you use them in a sentence, though? I don't think, if you can't use a word in a sentence, it's a pointless word. Listen, the way that they're able to spell these words, they definitely know how to use them in a sentence. Give me a word that they spelled. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:26 I can't even pronounce this. Snuffleupagus. S-N-U-F-F-A-L. Nope. Already wrong. There's no A in snuffleupagus. Okay. Well, not there.
Starting point is 00:04:37 I think it's snuffle. Well, listen, you know what I can spell? Snuffleupagus. I can spell Elizabeth. I can spell Elizabeth. Spell it. Liz. Can you spell Liz?
Starting point is 00:04:44 L-I-Z. But E-L-I-Z-A-B-E-T-H. And that's exactly who's going to be here with us this morning. 2020 presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren. Send it to Elizabeth Warren. She'll be here. All right. Can't wait to hear what she has to say.
Starting point is 00:04:57 She's actually was not favored at all to even make it this far. People, when she first announced that she was running, were like, eh, she's out of here. But it looks like people are starting to take to her. But she hasn't made it in any way yet. I mean, it's still early. Well, a lot more people like her than was anticipated. She's surging in the polls a little bit right now. All right, well.
Starting point is 00:05:15 We'll talk to Elizabeth Warren next hour, but we got front page news coming up next year. Yes, we are going to be talking about the National Spelling Bee, and we'll tell you why it was unprecedented. This is the first time anything like this has ever happened in H-I-S-T-O-R-Y. H-I-S-T-O-R-Y. Oh, history.
Starting point is 00:05:32 Okay. Listen, I know another thing I can spell. I can spell Cardi, god damn it. And have you heard the new Body B record pressed? No, I haven't heard it. This is my tune right here. I heard this a while ago and I'm glad that it's finally out because now I got something new to do some cardio to, man. So we're going to hear it this morning. We will play it right now drop on a cruise bomb for press dammit Mr. Wells most dangerous morning show the Breakfast Club
Starting point is 00:05:52 Man nothing. I love more than hard ratchet female raps one time for body beat drop on a clues bombs for both parties I love when a rapper blows up and has all this commercial success But didn't still puts out hard-ass records like that like Don't conform to the system. We are the system, okay? All right. Front page news, Yeen. We were already talking about the NBA Finals, and we're talking about the Raptors' 118-109 victory over the Warriors
Starting point is 00:06:15 in Game 1. Now, Drake, of course, was a storyline yet again. He did wear, like you said earlier, a Del Curry jersey. That's Steph Curry's father, and he also played for the Raptors during his final three NBA seasons back in 1999 to 2002. And it was autographed right on the ass part. In addition to that, as you stated, he does have tattoos for Steph Curry
Starting point is 00:06:38 and Kevin Durant, number 30 gifted, and the other one says number 35 snipe. I don't know why he would ever get a number 35 tattoo, as if that's going to be Kevin Durant's number forever. Was that Kevin Durant's number in Oklahoma? I don't remember. All right. Well, Drake also exchanged words with Draymond Green, and he told him he's trash after the game.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Jesus Christ. Yeah. I mean, he didn't mean that, right? I mean, do you even take that serious? Because I'm sure Draymond and Drake are friends in real life. Do you even take that serious? Um, I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:12 I can't tell you how he feels about it. It probably is annoying, though. I'm sure it's irritating. I mean, he's trolling, so that's the point of it. Draymond had a good stat line last night. If I'm not mistaken, Draymond almost had a triple-double. All right, well, if you want to know how Draymond responded, here it is. It wasn't really a scuffle because I didn't hit him and he didn't hit me
Starting point is 00:07:29 or I didn't push him or he didn't push me. We talked. We barked a little bit, but I wouldn't necessarily consider that a scuffle. Not really what I personally would consider a scuffle. So it's probably annoying at that point. I don't see how you caught Draymond trash. Draymond had a triple-double last night. Now, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said,
Starting point is 00:07:47 I think in the case of Drake, as I've said before, I mean, we certainly appreciate his superfan status, and I know he's beloved in the community of Toronto, but at the same time, I think there are appropriate lines that shouldn't be crossed in terms of how a competing team is addressed or the officials for that matter. Every arena needs a superfan because mascots don't do what they're supposed
Starting point is 00:08:05 to do anymore. When was the last time you seen a hype mascot? A hype mascot? Yeah. When was the last time you seen an actual hype mascot like the Chicago Bulls mascot
Starting point is 00:08:13 or the Brooklyn Nets mascot? You don't see hype mascots anymore. I would say the 76ers when I went to that game. That mascot was going crazy. Well, that's what we need. You need either a super mascot or a super fan.
Starting point is 00:08:24 I'm not mad at Drake for that. He also posted a picture, Steph Curry's hair lint. He put, for sale on my eBay right now, username DraymondShouldn'tWear23. Jesus Christ. And listen, if y'all really get mad at Drake, just accidentally throw a pass his way. Hit him in the face with a basketball. That's all. That's all.
Starting point is 00:08:43 If he get on the court, he get too close, accidentally throwing a cyst in his chin. All right, now let's talk about the Scripps National Spelling Bee. It was unprecedented. There was an eight-way tie that happened this morning. They ran out of words for the contestants after 20 rounds. How you run out of words? Big-ass dictionary and all the words. It was five and a half hours of words.
Starting point is 00:09:03 How you run out of words, though? They didn't. I guess people don't normally make it that far. And the fact that they couldn't eliminate people and eight of these children were amazing. Listen to some of these words. E-L-A-S. You are correct. What?
Starting point is 00:09:18 P-E-N-D-E-L-O-Q-U-E. Pandalox. You are correct. U-O-U-S-N-U-E, Pondalox. You are correct. Pondalox. U-O-U-S-N-U-S. You are correct. Let me tell you something. Now, normally, they would get $50,000 as a prize, right?
Starting point is 00:09:33 That's what happens. And they said there's only ever been two-way ties before. But this time, as an eight-way tie, they each are going to get $50,000 still. So not have to split the purse. They each will get $50,000. Is that popping? What? Like if you win a spelling bee.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Hell yeah. Oh, okay. That's amazing. I can't. Can you spell erysipelas? Yes, I can. Let me hear it. E-R-R-O-R syphilis.
Starting point is 00:09:58 It's not syphilis. What'd you say? Erysipelas. Oh, what is that? You think it's syphilis. It's E-R-Y-S-I-P-E-L-A-S. But what is it? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:10:09 See, that's my point. Why do you keep spelling words that you don't even know what they are? These kids probably know what it is. Yeah, these kids probably don't know. Yeah, we don't know. That's a great, I would love to know that. Do these kids actually know what these things are they're spelling? I think if you can spell erysipelas, you know what it is.
Starting point is 00:10:21 That's true. All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Front Page News. All right, we got Get It Off Your Chest coming up right now. 1-800-585-1051. Do you want to vent? All right? Do you want to drain yourself the way I drained myself in therapy yesterday? Okay?
Starting point is 00:10:34 Sounds like you have erysipelas. I don't know what that is. It does sound like something that you've got to go get a shot for. It is. Jesus Christ. All right, call us right now. It's Get It Off Your Chest, The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart?
Starting point is 00:10:45 Feeling tired? Depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves.
Starting point is 00:11:14 What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. Bullets. We need help!

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For
Starting point is 00:13:07 self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.

Starting point is 00:23:13 but they said there were two witnesses and they said the victim appeared to be in a verbal dispute with an unknown black male before the shooting. So what's Dirk
Starting point is 00:23:21 actual's charge? Murder? Well, the guy's not dead, so it's not murder, but attempted murder. There's five different charges. Okay. Which I read already, so. That sucks.
Starting point is 00:23:31 Yeah, it definitely does. It's going to cost him a lot of money in lawyer fees and bail and things of that nature. All right. Well, speaking of lawyer fees, R. Kelly is facing 11 new charges in Illinois for abuse and sexual assault. So there are upgraded and added charges, and there's still original charges that are active, but they're saying this is the most serious class of felony short of murder in Illinois, what he's facing.
Starting point is 00:23:55 They make it short. They trap all Kelly in a closet this time. Yeah, so some of those charges include five counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse, four counts of aggravated criminal sexual assault, four counts of aggravated criminal sexual assault, and two counts of criminal sexual assault. He's accused of committing an act of sexual penetration on a victim. That victim is listed as JP by the use of force or threat of force sometime in 2010.
Starting point is 00:24:18 Jesus. He's also accused of forcing contact between his penis and the alleged victim's mouth. And they're also saying that JP was under the age of 18 at the time of the offense. So he'll be back in court next week. I don't feel like that's big news like it probably should be. You think people are just numb to it at this point? Well, he's facing six to 30 years mandatory. Yeah, I think that's what people are waiting for.
Starting point is 00:24:39 People are just waiting for R. Kelly to finally get sentenced for the, you know, rejoice. Now, maybe we should have him sit down with Mike Tyson because Mike Tyson is still punching people. Whack 100, he was on Mike Tyson's podcast, Hot Boxing with Mike Tyson. We told you already that there was some type of altercation, and Mike Tyson apparently punched Whack 100. Now, according to Whack, this is what he had to say about the situation. Like Muhammad Ali said, I'm still pretty.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Got a little headache still, though. You know what I'm saying? Got to lay down a little bit. You know what I'm saying? All right. Give me my pain pills. I got to take them in now. All right.
Starting point is 00:25:16 Now, according to reports, I guess Mike Tyson got upset because Wack was saying that or insinuating that Tupac was gay. Jesus Christ. That's what the report is. Let me tell you something. Mike Tyson is, what, 50-something years old? So that means he's developing that old man strength, and he's still got that muscle memory to know how to throw a mean 3-4 piece. Mike will still knock you out.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Don't get it twisted. But if you're a boxer, even if you're retired, right, aren't your hands registered as lethal weapons? I don't know anything about that. I doubt it. You don't box no more. I know, but I still thought that you had to register your hands and that it's illegal. That's why boxers can't just get into fights with people.
Starting point is 00:25:54 I mean, I really don't know. I've heard that. I don't know how true it is. At this point, Mike Tyson is a civilian. He's been a civilian for a long time. So, try your luck. Okay, now let's talk about Willow Smith. She was on Red Table Talk, and she had some things to say about her appreciation of porn.
Starting point is 00:26:10 I'm down for the expensive-looking stuff, you know. I'm down for the artistic, you know. Oh, Jesus. If it's artsy. Lord have mercy. What? I got three daughters, ma'am. I just know eventually all of that is coming.
Starting point is 00:26:26 I mean, my daughter's 10. The other one's three. The other one's seven months. So I got a little while. But Lord have mercy. How old is Willow? How old is Willow Smith? She's a teenager, right?
Starting point is 00:26:34 Lord have mercy. Let me see. Hold on. Let me tell you Willow Smith's age. It's just certain things. But now she has an offer and she can actually direct porn. Lord have mercy. What? Adult film star Brie Mills is saying that she's an award and she can actually direct porn. Adult film star
Starting point is 00:26:45 Brie Mills is saying that she's an award winning adult filmmaker. She's not a film porn star but she is offering Willow the opportunity to make porn. She said thank you for the public statements you recently made about the negative impacts of stigmatizing porn. Adult films that are artistic
Starting point is 00:27:01 and progressive provide an opportunity for people to explore and connect around issues of sexuality. Willow Smith is 18, by the way. Salute to Will Smith. Will, I feel your pain. You know what I'm saying? But there's nothing you can do. All our daughters are going to grow up one day. And you know what I tell guys all the time?
Starting point is 00:27:18 Eventually, your daughter is going to have sex with somebody. You know why? Because you're having sex with somebody's daughter. And it's just hard truth that you've got to embrace. You've got to? Because you're having sex with somebody's daughter. And it's just hard truth that you gotta embrace. You gotta embrace the fact that your mama was somebody's daughter, your grandma was somebody's daughter, your aunt was somebody's daughter, your sister was somebody's daughter, and now you got daughters.
Starting point is 00:27:33 And guess what you was doing to somebody's daughter. So guess what somebody's eventually gonna do to yours. Well, hopefully you like the guy. Right? I guess, man. Okay. That's going to be a funny day when she comes to you and she's like, Dad.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Dad what? I'm thinking about. Take all that deal, Mama. I don't know. I want to keep the innocence in my mind. No, she should be able to have the lines of communication open with you so she can come to you. I fully am. What is she like, Dad can come to you. I've fully embraced. What is she like, Dad, how do you suck?
Starting point is 00:28:07 Lord have mercy. Listen, I haven't fully embraced the fact that that's going to happen, but I know it's going to happen. It definitely is. And you know you have to tell her the right way to do things so she's good. Man, shut up. All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. That would be a good name for a book, though, like a fatherhood book. Like, guys, one day your daughter is going to suck
Starting point is 00:28:26 and other things that you have to worry about as a father. There you go. Book number four. No, I'm not doing it. I'm not even putting that out there into the universe. All right. Well, coming up, we got front page news. Yes, please change the subject. And we will change the subject. And yes, so front page news.
Starting point is 00:28:42 We'll talk about Donald Trump and how he is, again, threatening Mexico. We'll tell you how. This is The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag.
Starting point is 00:28:58 I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg.
Starting point is 00:29:12 I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tried my country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:29:30 What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Hey, guys. I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, 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. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real,
Starting point is 00:30:25 inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.
Starting point is 00:31:18 And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.
Starting point is 00:31:35 You're trying your best and you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I don't bluff, bro. Hey, it's Friday!
Starting point is 00:31:54 I'm just trying to act fake hype because I'm tired. I know. I got stuff to do all weekend. Sometimes Fridays feel like it's the beginning of more work. Not for me. I'm sleeping all weekend. All right. Front page news.
Starting point is 00:32:05 The Raptors beat the Warriors in Game 1 of the NBA Finals, 118-109. Game 2 is Sunday night. Nothing to worry about here, folks. I see a lot of people saying Raptors in 6. It's not going to happen in that way. All right? It wouldn't even shock me if the Raptors don't win another game.
Starting point is 00:32:19 But don't quote me. I'm no Max Kellerman or Stephen A. Smith, okay? All right. Now, Donald Trump, people are upset because he is threatening to impose new tariffs on Mexico if they don't step up their immigration enforcement actions. You know, he doesn't want them over here. Now, Trump said in a White House statement the first round of tariffs would start on June 10th with 5% on all goods imported from Mexico.
Starting point is 00:32:41 And if Mexico does not act as Donald Trump demands, then those tariffs will go up to 10% by July, 15% by August, 20% by September. Jesus Christ. And then a permanent level of 25% by October. Well, tequila and avocados just got more expensive. I am not playing with y'all. My God.
Starting point is 00:32:58 So, yeah. Hey. I don't know if this is the solution, but. Salute to Bob Pittman. Send me a few bottles of Casa Dragones now. That's all you care about? Send me a few bottles of Casa Dragones now before the price gets too high. It's already high.
Starting point is 00:33:14 The only time I have Casa Dragones is when we go out to eat with Bob Pittman or at an iHeart event. No, you know what, though? He's never sent us any. Don't put me in that. I know, I know. We know you get special treatment. I get sent plenty. But I do buy it when I'm what, though? He's never sent us any. Don't put me in that. Oh, okay. I know, I know. We know you get special treatment. I get sent plenty, okay? But I do buy it when I'm out, though.
Starting point is 00:33:29 I really do enjoy it. But if they put a 20% tax on it, I'm going to be drinking water. Okay. Well, let's talk about in Nevada. The governor has signed a bill to restore voting rights to convicted felons. So he said, I just signed two criminal justice reform bills that will restore fairness and justice to thousands of Nevadans. I'm so excited about the positive impact these bills will have on our communities,
Starting point is 00:33:53 especially communities of color. So that is amazing that that bill just got signed. What's the bill again? To restore voting rights to convicted felons. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Got you, got you. That's actually good, though, because, you know, a lot of people that are convicted felons are black and brown people.
Starting point is 00:34:07 You know? So that can really sway elections. It will re-enfranchise 77,000 people from Nevada. That's a lot of votes. Yeah, that's amazing. All it takes is, I mean, the difference between winning and losing could be a couple hundred votes. 77,000 definitely sways things. So that legislation will go into effect
Starting point is 00:34:24 on July 1st. Alright, now there's going to be some issues in Georgia when it comes to Disney, Netflix, and Warner Media. They're saying their new abortion law may push people to not film in Georgia. So these big entertainment companies are now saying they may stop producing movies
Starting point is 00:34:40 and TV shows in Georgia if this new abortion law takes effect. So that's their way of standing up. I'm all for it. They're saying, according to a bill that earlier this month, the governor, Brian Kemp, signed that would ban abortions if a fetal heartbeat can be detected. That's usually at about six weeks of pregnancy,
Starting point is 00:34:58 and they are planning to have that take effect on January 1st. So, like, again, I said, Disney, Netflix, and WarnerMedia may push their movies out of Georgia if something like this happens. Now, I'm all for that. I'm all for that. But how is it going to work when the majority of states start passing those laws? Where are these people going to film?
Starting point is 00:35:15 Well, there's still not a majority at all of states. It's going to get there. It's growing every day. Yeah, I think in certain places, yes. And I think these laws are being challenged and courts are challenging them, and women's right groups are challenging them as well. So we just have to make sure that we keep on
Starting point is 00:35:32 speaking our voices because obviously that brings a lot of money and business into Georgia when these movies are filming. They get a lot of tax breaks. Exactly. Because they're trying to entice filmmakers and producers to come there and film and work, but it's going to affect them a lot. And that's why they've gotten out of, you know, the more liberal states like the Californians and the New Yorks,
Starting point is 00:35:49 because the taxes are too high to film there. So they go to those smaller states to film because they can save more money. This is a good time for us to offer some tax breaks. Come here and film. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Front Page News. Yes. Now tell them who's joining us next. Well, we have 2020
Starting point is 00:36:05 presidential candidate Senator Elizabeth Warren. I saw Envy just tweeted out, Elizabeth Warren is here. You ain't even here. I know. He has some nerve. You're not even here. Why didn't you just tweet that out? Go back to sleep. All right? But Elizabeth Warren will be joining us when we come back. It's the world's most dangerous
Starting point is 00:36:21 morning show, The Breakfast Club. E.J. Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. E.J. Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed. 2020 presidential candidate, Elizabeth Warren. Senator Elizabeth Warren. Elizabeth, please. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:36:35 What about Liz? Liz, I like that. Alright. What's happening, Liz? Oh, man, we're out there having fun. Fun? Let's start off with why getting to this race? Yeah, why should Liz be running for president? Because there is so much change we need to make in this country, and 2020 is our big chance to do it.
Starting point is 00:36:55 You know, I think of 2020 as this is going to decide the direction this country goes for generations to come. And, man, we've come to the fork in the road here. Right. Is it really a fork in the road? We just know we're going in the wrong direction. It's not really a fork. Well, you know, but that's the point,
Starting point is 00:37:11 is we've got to make choices. It's not just not Trump. I get that. You know, we're all on board, or not all of us, but I mean, a bunch of folks are on board for that. But it's okay. So what direction are we going to go from there? Because you've got to think about what's been broken for how long in a country to end up with
Starting point is 00:37:30 a guy like Donald Trump as president of the United States. What are some things that alarm you the most right now? Oh, God. It's how much division and hate he stirs up, how he embraces the racists, the nativists, the sexists. You know, it's like everybody. It's fine somebody to hang on. I look at everything like being with the women's right to choose right now and so many different states passing all these policies. And it's that's alarming to me. Yes, it is. It's very alarming.
Starting point is 00:38:04 And it's alarming because it's right now it's gaining momentum. It's not one. And then everybody said, whoa, back off. It's like one. And then some the next state says, oh, we can do better than that. We can go further than that. We can push harder than that. And you're just watching them roll up one after another after.
Starting point is 00:38:23 And here's the thing. Here's what keeps getting me about this. We live in a democracy, right? I mean, at least that's the theory right behind it. The overwhelming majority of people do not want to see us overturn Roe versus Wade. You know, and it's true on one thing after another. I proposed a wealth tax. Overwhelming majority of people say,
Starting point is 00:38:51 that's a great idea. And I'm not just talking Democrats. I'm talking Democrats, Republicans, independents, a majority, overwhelming majority of people. And we ought to help cancel student loan debt. Explain to people what wealth tax is. If they first time they just heard you say it, what is the wealth tax? Okay. So anybody who owns a home has been paying a wealth tax. It's just called a property tax, right? The difference for me is what I want to see us do across this country is to say to the top one-tenth of one percent, that's the fortunes over 50 million dollars, that your 50 millionth and first dollar, you got to pitch in two cents in a tax. This is after you make 50 million. Not make it. This is your fortune.
Starting point is 00:39:30 This is your fortune. You got to pitch in two cents and then two cents on every dollar after that. So a 2% tax if you make over 50 million. If you've got over $50 million. And just understand that's the top one-tenth of 1%. And this is your accumulated assets everywhere. It's your real estate, but it's also your diamonds and your stock portfolio, your Rembrandts, your yachts, whatever you've got. Two cents. And here's the deal. If that top one-tenth of 1%, that's about 75,000 families in this country, pitched in two cents. You want to
Starting point is 00:40:04 know what we could do with it? You ready out your pencil by amazon you ready you could do universal child care for every baby in this country age zero to five universal pre-k for every three-year-old and four-year-old raise the wages of every childcare worker and preschool teacher to a professional level, provide universal tuition-free technical school, two-year college, and four-year college for every kid, put $50 billion into the HBCUs. I'm with you. And cancel student loan debt for 95% of those who've got student loan debt. And knock back the whole opioid crisis by putting $100 billion into that.
Starting point is 00:40:57 Think how much money that is. That's a lot of money. Think how many lives you could touch. If it's that easy, why don't people just do it? Well, that's what I'm out here fighting for. No, but that's my point. That's why I'm in this fight. You ask me why I'm in this fight? We make that change. Think how America looks different for so many people. That'd be about 43 million Americans who would see student loan debt canceled. And by the way, I just want to point out
Starting point is 00:41:25 on that one, black kids getting ready to go to school, more likely to borrow money to go to college. I did borrow more money when they're in college and have more trouble paying the debt when they get out of college. You do this one thing that I'm talking about, put this two cent wealth tax in and then make these changes in the law. Take that two cents and reinvest it in America. And we would see the black-white wealth gap in America start to close. You know what's crazy about that? I just got robbed about a week ago from the IRS, right?
Starting point is 00:41:59 They robbed me, took all my money. And then I look at Amazon. Yeah. $11.2 billion. And they pay nothing in federal taxes? Yep. Yep. So if anybody who's listening to this paid $1 in taxes last year or this past year, you paid more than Amazon. So Amazon gets up and announces publicly that they made $11.2 billion in profits, right? And then they turn around to
Starting point is 00:42:28 the IRS and say, oh, well, we actually meant to say zero because that's how much we're paying. And in fact, they had the goal to actually ask for some tax refunds, right? So they actually made money from the IRS. So here's my proposal for companies like Amazon, companies that make more than $100 million a year. A lot of money. Okay. Whatever they say publicly, these are audited financial statements that they get out. Whatever they say are their profits, then they have to pay 7% of that just across the board in taxes. 7%. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:08 But then they can lie though, right? No, no, no. You don't want a lot of investors because you also want investors to want to continue to see your company's doing well and say, this is what we made. Bingo. Bingo. And they want to set their executive compensation on how much they announced publicly. So they have every incentive. So my view is why not just let the taxpayers say as well, you know what, we'll take that number too. And we want 7%. Now you ready for the kind of money that will raise over 10 years? It's about
Starting point is 00:43:38 a trillion dollars. Again, that's money we can reinvest here in America. That's money we can build a country here that doesn't just work for this thin slice at the top, but a country that works for everybody. I got a lot of questions about that. Number one, some people say Amazon, when they don't pay taxes, it enables them to hire more people. So they'd be able to create more jobs. Is that true? Why don't you do that? Why don't you just say, I tell you what, you quit paying taxes, it enables them to hire more people so they'd be able to create more jobs. Is that true? Why don't you do that? Why don't you just say, I tell you what, you quit paying taxes and you'll hire more people
Starting point is 00:44:11 and I'll do the same. You want to do the same? They'll still have enough money to hire people, even if they pay taxes on $11 billion. Of course they will. None of us like paying taxes. Of course. I get it. But the difference is you haven't been able to lobby Congress nearly as successfully to get a bunch of loopholes and tricks and openings so that you don't have to pay anything at all.
Starting point is 00:44:33 I don't mind paying if I know what my money is going for. And that's the problem. We don't know who the hell FICA is now. We don't know where our tax money is going now. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's why I want to do my 2% wealth tax and say, I'll tell you exactly where I'm going to spend that money.
Starting point is 00:44:47 I'll account for all the nickels in it and where those nickels are going to go is in making this country work. All right, keep it locked. We have more with Senator Elizabeth Warren. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela
Starting point is 00:45:04 Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with presidential candidate 2020, Senator Elizabeth Warren. Charlamagne? I want to clear up some stuff because there's a lot of criticism that's said about you, so I want to give you the opportunity to speak on these things.
Starting point is 00:45:17 The Native Americans, do you regret taking the DNA test? Oh, look, I can't go back, but... You know, you got to explain to a lot of people that don't know. Now, you came out and said that you were Native American. Long ago. And they found out that you weren't. And people were very upset about that. The same for the people who don't know. No, but a lot of people don't know. We don't have that much time. Because we're putting people up to her as well. So, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:45:35 So, I grew up in Oklahoma. I learned about my family the same way most people learn about their family. From my mama and my daddy and my aunts and my uncles. And it's what I believe. But I'm not a person of color. I'm not a citizen of a tribe and I shouldn't have done it. But what I, what I can do is try to be a good partner. And that's what I do every day. So for example, in the things we're talking about here, what I want to see us do in education is I want to see us get rid of the student loan debt and make an investment in the historically black colleges and universities. I want to see us in health care, address health care disparities and particularly maternal mortality rates for black women.
Starting point is 00:46:22 We've got serious problems. I see you talk about reparations as well. Yeah. Your family told you you were Native American? Yeah. Charlamagne tells me I'm Dominican, but I don't believe it. You are. How long did you hold on to that?
Starting point is 00:46:33 Because there was some report that said you were Native American on your Texas bar license and that you said you were Native American on some documents when you were a professor at Harvard. Like, why'd you do that? So, it's what I believe. You know, that's, like I said, it's what I learned from my family. Were there any benefits to that? No. Boston Globe did a full investigation.
Starting point is 00:46:52 It never affected, nothing about my family ever affected any job I ever got. Couldn't get a discount in college. You're kind of like the original Rachel Dozal a little bit. Rachel Dozal's white woman pretending to be black. No, this is what I learned from my family. Yeah. Yeah. What about the dreamers out there?
Starting point is 00:47:08 As you see your president is locking them up and sending them back, what do you say to the dreamers? What's your plan for the dreamers? It's so heartbreaking to see all these kids that are dying. He said you're president too, by the way. Yeah, thanks. He tried you just now. Yeah, try me.
Starting point is 00:47:23 He tried you, Ms. Liz. Yeah. I got that. Yeah, thanks. He tried you just now. Yeah, try me. He tried you, Ms. Liz. Yeah. That's right. I got that. I got that. Not going there. And all this fear that's being instilled in people that aren't familiar with people of other races and other religions, and people just have this fear of something that's different. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:39 What's the plan for the Dreamers? So, look, we need a comprehensive plan here. But for me, it's we got to protect the dreamers and they got to have a path to citizenship and you don't break up their families. But it's also true for the people who are here, who aren't citizens. We got to find a path to citizenship. This makes no sense at all. And we are a country for which immigration is not our weakness, it's our strength. This is
Starting point is 00:48:07 what this country is based on. Yeah. So you don't want to help build the wall. No. That wall, come on. That's not about... But it's not about security. That wall is about hatred. Absolutely. It's about building a monument to hate and division. It's a sign.
Starting point is 00:48:23 It is. And it is designed to be a sign. That's the whole point. What were your views back in the day? Because if I read correctly, you were a Republican up until the mid-90s, I think until 96? Nah. I just wasn't politically active. So you weren't a Republican? No, no.
Starting point is 00:48:38 I was registered. Okay, okay. But I wasn't politically active. I've always been in the policy end of it, what we need to be doing. I got into the policy end of it in the fight around families who go broke and how to protect those families and what ultimately turned into what I think of as the bankruptcy war. So what made you register as Republican back then?
Starting point is 00:48:59 Because that's the Reagan years. That's the war on drugs. I just wasn't politically active one way or the other. But I'll tell you, when I got into the fight on bankruptcy, and I looked around and realized that all of the Republicans lined up at the credit card companies. Was your family Republican?
Starting point is 00:49:16 Is that why? Like, sometimes you do what your family registers? When I say we weren't active, I actually don't even know. I don't even know how they were. You had a lot of confusion back in the day, Ms. Warren. You thought you was Native American. You thought you was Republican.
Starting point is 00:49:29 When did you get on the right track? You got to a fork in the road at some point. Yeah. You know, a big part of it was when I got into the fights over, you've got to make the law reflect our values. You've got to have a law that doesn't just work for those at the top, but that works for everyone else. It's when I started to see that.
Starting point is 00:49:52 I think that's the big change. You think a lot of that has to do with the fact America was never designed that way? Like America was really designed for white males to succeed. It was never designed for anybody else, really. Yeah, and we've watched the effects of that. What does reparations look like for you? Because I hear you say, hey, black people need reparations, but what does that look like? What's the plan for that? Because you've got a plan for everything.
Starting point is 00:50:11 We've got a plan. So the plan here has already started in the House and has already been introduced. It's got, I think it's got about a hundred. HR40? Yeah. It's got about a hundred co-sponsors. I support this. And the idea on this one is to say it's a complicated problem on both who gets it and what it's going to look like. Why is it complicated?
Starting point is 00:50:30 Well, because experts who've been dealing with this for a long time, who've been trying to talk through what they think are the best ways to go about this, they have different points of view on how to do it. So what this says is let's put together a commission, bring in the experts, and let's really push a more national, bigger, more front and centered conversation about this. I don't think it should be a conversation. I think that America systemically did things to put black and brown people in a terrible place, and they need to systemically do
Starting point is 00:51:00 something to get us out. I think that's right, but the question is why? Yeah, what are they doing? I mean, the same way we can figure out how they skim two cents off all these, or whatever, whatever that, what was it, two cents? Two cents.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Yeah. Off the wealth tax. Absolutely. There we go. Because 90% of those people probably, their companies probably were built off the backs of slaves,
Starting point is 00:51:18 more than likely. So the point is, though, you've got to figure out what is the right way to do the plan. And what about legalizing marijuana? There's so many of us that have been arrested, got locked up, have records, are still in jail,
Starting point is 00:51:30 and it's legalized in a bunch of places. What's your stance on that? Okay, so I'm for legalization and for expunging records for people who've, that's been the only thing that they've gotten pulled in on. And look, a big part of it is exactly as you say, it also has had a real racial dimension to it. The best evidence says blacks and whites use marijuana at about the same rates, but blacks are far more likely to be arrested than whites are. So I'm for full legalization. I also have a bill right now to say, you know,
Starting point is 00:52:06 this is one of those, you'll try anything you, you know, you try to get there partway. I've got one co-sponsored with a Republican that says if the state has legalized it, then the federal government backs off and the state's legalization in effect now controls. It's not as good as doing it all the way across the country, but it's at least a start. You know what I like about you? I like the fact that you have a plan for everything. But do you think that Democrats are making the mistake of always talking about Trump and impeaching Trump instead of actually talking about the issues more? Because I feel like we should be elevating the things that you're saying in the media more than talking about impeaching Trump. That's what's
Starting point is 00:52:42 going to make me vote. I'm not going to vote just because you're anti-Trump. Right. So, you know, look, that's why I got in this, is for the plans, is to talk about what's broken, how we can fix it, and how we got to build a grassroots movement to make this happen. Are you ready to get nasty with him, though? Why are you ready? It's already happening.
Starting point is 00:53:00 You know, we got to, but part of what we got to do, I laugh and say that, we got to talk about the stuff, our vision of what this America could look like. Well, thank you for joining us. We appreciate it. Thank you for having me. You sure you just don't want to smack his toupee off one time? Just once. Just once.
Starting point is 00:53:18 Well, thank you, Liz. You can't have sold a sitting president, Ms. Warren. 2020 presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren. Thank you for joining us. Warren. 2020 presidential candidate, Elizabeth Warren. Thank you for joining us. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Charlamagne Tha God here. Angelia, we are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:53:34 We have no idea what DJ NB is. Can I turn my mic on? Turn Angelia's mic on. Stop being disrespectful, drama. This is crazy because I'm a woman. Wow, drama. Okay, drama. You sexist bastard, you.
Starting point is 00:53:45 Drop on the clues bombs for Elizabeth Warren for pulling up. 2020 presidential candidate. So on the list of candidates who we've interviewed, where would you place her? As far as favorites. Favorites. So it's been Andrew Yang. Yeah, I don't know if I have. Let me see.
Starting point is 00:54:01 It's been Mayor Pete. Yeah, I mean, I love Senator Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris.'s been Mayor Pete. Yeah, I mean, I love Senator Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris, Cory Booker. I love Mayor Pete, and I like Tim Ryan a lot. Tim Ryan. Who else? There was one more. No, there's been more than one more.
Starting point is 00:54:15 We had Julian Castro. Oh, that's right. We've had so many. Yeah. Oh, my God. There's been at least 10 of them up here. Shut up. You said who?
Starting point is 00:54:23 I'm not even saying what he said. What did he say? Don't worry about it. There's been at least 10 of them up here. Shut up. You said who? I'm not even saying what he said. What did he say? Don't worry about it. There's been at least 10 people up here. At least. But I like Elizabeth Warren. Where do you place her? I haven't thought about it.
Starting point is 00:54:34 It hasn't sunk in yet. I don't know. Okay. Where do you place her? I would put her right now. Maybe fourth. Jesus Christ, you could have kept that to yourself. What?
Starting point is 00:54:49 I guess fourth is good. I don't know. I mean, anything could change. It's still super early. But as far as interview energy, that's all. Now, my favorite interview has been Mayor Pete. Yeah, I'm just talking about interview energy. Oh, yeah, yeah. If we're just talking about interviews, definitely Mayor Pete would Now, if you're just talking about... Yeah, I'm just talking about interview. Oh, yeah, yeah. If we're just talking about interviews... Not who's gonna win.
Starting point is 00:55:05 Oh, yeah, yeah. If we're talking about just interviews, definitely Mayor Pete has been my favorite interview. Right. That's not even... Yeah, Mayor Pete.
Starting point is 00:55:10 Okay. Yeah. What about Marianne Williamson? You liked her, too. I did like Marianne, but I liked Marianne before she was running
Starting point is 00:55:16 for president because I've heard Marianne on Oprah's Super Soul conversations. So I liked her prior to, you know, sitting down and talking to her.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Like, I've listened to her before is what I'm saying. Okay. Yeah. Now, we got a rumor report coming? Yes. Oh, man. So we were trying to figure out if 50 was trying to help Rotimi with his album promotion for Walk With Me. And some things have been resolved because apparently Rotimi did owe 50 Cent some money.
Starting point is 00:55:39 Lord have mercy. 50's undefeated, by the way. Oh, my gosh. Jesus Christ. We'll talk about it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in.
Starting point is 00:55:49 All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:55:57 All right. So, Rotimi, what was going on with 50 Cent trolling Rotimi the other day, saying that Rotimi owed him some money? If you recall, he said, I want to punch this M where it knows. Rotimi got the number one R&B album, Time to Pay, Time to Pay Me On Gang. Now, Rotimi said he didn't owe 50 Cent any money
Starting point is 00:56:14 and said that he was just being targeted because of the album's success. Some people thought this was just a marketing scheme because Rotimi did have the number one album. It's a great way to be funny. Snoop Dogg jumped into conversation and said he would pay Rotimi's debt. But it turns out there was a bit of a debt. Here's Rotimi explaining.
Starting point is 00:56:31 When you're signed to someone as an artist, they give you a budget. 50 believed in me in 2014, gave me a deal under his project, under his achievement. At this point, we didn't agree on the single, Love Rhythm. I felt like it was the one he felt like I should have gone with another record. So I asked him, can I get out of my deal? And he said, yes, I'm not going to hold you back, but there's business. So what that is, I paid an upfront sum, and everything else will be through mechanical sales of royalty and everything.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Well, that's why you shouldn't listen to us radio personalities, because I damn sure thought 50 was just trying to promote Rotimi's album. Well, Rotimi did end up giving him $100,000, and he said, because it's his brother, he did that instead of waiting for those royalties, and I guess the rest of that is going to come on the back end, and 50 Cent is fine with it now. Drop one of
Starting point is 00:57:18 the clues bombs for the undisputed bill collector of the world, Curtis 50 Cent Jackson. He said, I have no problem with Rotimi. In fact, I wish him and his family the best. God bless. Positive vibes only. Man, I love being a Cantor. We so bipolar.
Starting point is 00:57:31 It's beautiful. All right, now let's discuss Joe Jonas. He got married to Sophie Turner. It was a secret wedding back on May 1st. And he had some issues because Diplo was actually at the wedding and he was live streaming during the wedding and posting things. And a lot of people found out about it from Diplo's live stream. So here's what Joe Jonas had to say about that actual wedding while he was on the UK radio show Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp. Diplo ruined it for you, though.
Starting point is 00:58:00 Diplo did. Yeah, he did ruin it. I love Diplo, but he loves his gram more than a 13 year old. He literally like live streamed with dog face filters. We just laughed. We loved it. We thought it was ridiculous and I just love that he was walking into the chapel and he's like gonna hit this
Starting point is 00:58:15 wedding real quick. Jonas is being very nice because I'd be highly upset if you came to my wedding and was recording my wedding, especially if I asked you not to my wedding and was recording my wedding, especially if I asked you not to. Nobody else was doing that, right? Well, that's how people found out about it, just from watching his live stream.
Starting point is 00:58:30 And then Sophie Turner was on the Graham Norton show, and she said, well, we didn't choose him to be our wedding photographer. He just decided to live stream it. What's so whack about that is that's not even your moment, Diplo. You know what I'm saying? Like, that's your friend's moment and his woman's moment, and they're getting married. Why are you making it about you? Because that's technically what you're doing.
Starting point is 00:58:45 You're making it about you. Let me go hit this wedding real quick. All right, now Joe Jonas responded to this video. He said the only thing that ruined, I mean, Diplo responded to Joe Jonas' interview. He said the only thing that ruined the wedding was your fit. That's lame as hell. And Diplo's a celebrity. Like he's popping.
Starting point is 00:59:03 Like he don't want his privacy? Clearly not if he's just always on Instagram showing off everything. One day you're going to want one of those private moments to yourself, Diplo, and then you're going to know how Joe Jonas feels when somebody blows up your spot. Alright, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. Yes. Set me up, Yee.
Starting point is 00:59:18 Oh, now Charlamagne, who are you giving that donkey to? You know, we were just having this conversation with YG yesterday, and we were talking about cultural theft. And we need this guy named Michael Dempsey to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him. Michael Dempsey. Yes.
Starting point is 00:59:33 All right. Well, when we come back, we have Donkey of the Day with Charlamagne on The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country.
Starting point is 00:59:46 I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Starting point is 01:00:03 Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe owned country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a racket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that?
Starting point is 01:00:19 Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.
Starting point is 01:00:40 You might know me from my popular online series, 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. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all.
Starting point is 01:01:27 It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, It was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.
Starting point is 01:02:16 Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever
Starting point is 01:02:37 you get your podcasts. Because right now you want some real donkey shit. 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, Demi? Absolutely. I have become donkey of the day. All right. The Breakfast Club, bitch. You're a donkey.
Starting point is 01:02:58 All right. Donkey of the Day for Friday, May 31st goes to the owner of Mirage Beer Company, Michael Dempster. I've never heard of Mirage Beers, but they are a Seattle-based brewing company. And Michael Dempster is a colonizer. And one thing colonizers will do is colonize. See, colonizers are always trying to take control over something that doesn't belong to them. All right? Some people call it culture vulturing.
Starting point is 01:03:20 The moral of the story is when it comes to cultural theft, you will find no bigger thief than an old white man. All right. Old white men be stealing. All right. Just stealing things that don't belong to them and claiming it as their own. That's been going on since the beginning of time. Let's not act like cultural theft at the hands of old white male Caucasians isn't a thing. Okay.
Starting point is 01:03:36 How many times throughout history have we seen something created by a black person only to be taken by an old white male without permission? Okay. The white person gets paid and the people who created what was stolen get nothing. No recognition, no awards, and damn sure no money. This just doesn't happen with black things. It happens with black people, okay? Remember that whole slavery thing, you know, stole us from our homeland, used us to build this country, didn't compensate us?
Starting point is 01:04:00 Yeah, that whole thing. Biggest cultural theft ever. Well, that saga continues because Michael Dempster is the owner of Mirage Beer. And yesterday on their Instagram, a picture of their latest beverages popped up. One called Snitch Blood with the red paisley pattern that bloods wear on their rags. And then on the other can, it said, where you from? And that had the blue paisley print that Crips wear on their rag. Now, we've been seeing an uptick in Bloods and Crips
Starting point is 01:04:30 trademarking their names and phrases. The Bloods and Crips are becoming legitimate businesses, and they have that right. I'm sure you've watched Trigger Warning on Netflix from my friend Killer Mike. Drop one of the clues, Bonds, for Killer Mike. All right? If you haven't, you should.
Starting point is 01:04:44 But for the purposes of this donkey, just skip to episode three titled White Gang Privilege, when Mike helps the Crips and Bloods develop their own legitimate brands through the soda business. Okay? I got a bottle of Crip Cola right here. You know what I mean? Okay? And as Mike so eloquently stated, if I'm a Hells Angels member, that means I've already incorporated myself and I can sell merchandise. But if you are a blood or a crypt, you are illegal and can't sell your own bandanas.
Starting point is 01:05:11 But the white man can and he will. Oh, Lord. Mike Dempster. I have no problem with blood and crypts changing the narrative and turning the gang culture into something positive through business. But I do have a problem with a white man profiting off black pain. All right, people died over those colors. Actual blood was spilled because of blood, and there's whole families out there that have the blues because of Crips.
Starting point is 01:05:31 So how dare you attempt to turn people's traumas into dollars? But colonizers don't care about people. They care about profit. It's the American way, all right? The foundation of this country is built on blood and off the backs of others. If it wasn't for cultural theft, America would have no culture at all. Okay. Ask the native Americans. I'm sure they would agree. Now YG, who was a known blood, he was on the breakfast club yesterday. And I asked him about this. You can't script this kind of stuff. I just asked YG about this yesterday. And then today,
Starting point is 01:05:57 this story about Mirage beer, trying to sell blood and crip beers, uh, crumbs across my desk. Listen to what YG had to say about this yesterday. What do you think about gangs becoming a business? Like, you see the Crips and Bloods trademarking, you know, names, or, like, you know, the Crip Cola that Killer Mike did. What do you think of that? I think it's all fire. Like, as far as if you really a part of it and you turn it into some real business s***,
Starting point is 01:06:19 if you not a part of it and you trademarking s*** and all that, use a whole s*** and we gonna get you. They gonna get you! Does he look like he's a part of it and you're trademarking and all that, use a whole ass and we're going to get you. They're going to get you. Does he look like he's a part of it to you? No, not at all. Does he look like he's a part of it, Nick? Nope. I don't know if Michael Dempster is afraid of getting got,
Starting point is 01:06:37 but he had a change of heart shortly after posting those beers. I'm not going to read his whole letter, but you can find it, I guess, if you go to Mirage Beer on Instagram. I don't know. It's still letter, but you can find it, I guess, if you go to, what's that, Mirage Beer on Instagram? I don't know. It's still up? Well, not the cans, but it's his apology letter. But, you know, Michael Dempsey states it's in poor taste that he did this, and he thanked members of
Starting point is 01:06:56 the beer community for forcefully telling him to check your privilege. And he said those responses stopped him from making an even bigger mistake, actually using those stupid labels and letting them hit shelves where they could then hurt, anger or disenfranchise anyone who saw them. OK, he ended the letter by saying this was an egregious misstep. And I hope he thinks I hope you think on it further. He said we're all better off when intensity and ignorance are big deals.
Starting point is 01:07:22 So he apologized. The biggest thing we can take from that letter is check your privilege. All right? It's just something all privileged people have to do constantly. That's the only way we're going to make this world a better place. Men got to check their privilege when it comes to women. Straight people got to check their privilege when it comes to LGBT. And old white men definitely have to check their privilege when it comes to everybody.
Starting point is 01:07:43 Okay? Old white men need to listen up right now. You don't have control over the universe like you think, all right? You can't tell women what to do with their bodies, and you damn sure can't tell Crips and Bloods what to do with their culture. Please let Chelsea handle my white work. Hee-haw, hee-haw. That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise.
Starting point is 01:08:00 That's right. You handed me. What's that? Not yesterday. Mike posted May 27th. All right. You handed me. What's that? Not yesterday. Mike posted May 27th. All right. Dan, dates don't matter. He wants you to be accurate.
Starting point is 01:08:12 It happened. All right. Yeah. All right. On Facebook, you can go read his apology letter. Well, thank you so much, Charlamagne, for that donkey of the day. Yes. Now.
Starting point is 01:08:22 I have no idea what we're doing next. I'm being honest with you. We're talking about porn. Oh. You know why? Because it's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. Okay. Let's I have no idea what we're doing next. I'm being honest. We're talking about porn. Oh. You know why? Cause it's Freaky Freaky Freaky Friday. Okay, let's start over. Let's bring it back. Gotta be more in sync. You ready? It's Friday. You know what that means? It's Freaky Freaky
Starting point is 01:08:36 Freaky Friday. Yes, and today we are going to be talking about porn. That's right. Willow Smith has the opportunity to direct a porn. She's of age. She can direct a porn. She's not going to be talking about porn. That's right. Willow Smith has the opportunity to direct a porn. She's of age. She can direct a porn. She's not going to star in it.
Starting point is 01:08:49 I know. And she hasn't accepted this offer, but she did say that she does like artistic porn. Yeah, but this just makes me think about the fact that one day my daughter's going to like sex. You know what I'm saying? Don't you want her to enjoy herself? No.
Starting point is 01:09:01 Sex is not a dirty, taboo thing, Charlamagne. I'm not saying it is. I'm just saying what I don't want my daughters to be doing. But I have to accept the fact that they will. They wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for sex. They wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me being with somebody's daughter. That's just the truth to the matter. We're all here because we had sexual relations with somebody's daughter.
Starting point is 01:09:17 That's just a fact. Your mama was somebody's daughter. Your grandma was somebody's daughter. Would you feel different if it was your son? Of course. Who's going to have sex one day? different if it was your son? Of course. Who's going to have sex one day? Yes, double standards do exist. Of course, yes, I would.
Starting point is 01:09:29 Absolutely. All right, we have to stop teaching young girls that sex is bad. I ain't telling them that it's bad. I'm just saying what I don't want them to know about. But it's a natural, normal thing, and you want to make sure they have a healthy relationship when it comes to sex. Now, today, however, we are talking about porn. So if you were going to direct a porn and had an opportunity to submit a treatment and have a porn come out, what would your porn be about?
Starting point is 01:09:49 Think about it. And you guys call us up, 800-585-1051. You're directing a porn. I got some fire, fire ideas. What's the plot and what's the name of it? I would remake Coming to America and call it Coming in America. And it'd be a girl named America. Why you bleep me?
Starting point is 01:10:03 Because you can't do that. You can't tell me to talk about these things that didn't bleep me. Bleep yourself. How dare y'all? Bleep yourself. That's a good porn. I don't even want to play this game no more.
Starting point is 01:10:12 I just told y'all a great idea and y'all bleeped it. Well, you tell us your great ideas. We might have to bleep you, but just be aware this is going to be on the radio. 800-585-1051. What would your porn be about?
Starting point is 01:10:23 Call us up. It's The Breakfast Club and it's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. Hey. The Breakfast Club. All right. What's up? It's The Breakfast Club
Starting point is 01:10:34 and you know today's Friday. So what does that mean? It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. And today we are talking about porn. Why are we talking about porn today? Well, on Red Table Talk, Willa Smith was talking about her love of very artistic porn. And now she's been offered the opportunity to direct a porn. Okay.
Starting point is 01:10:53 So if you could direct a porn, what would your porn be about? What would it be called? Now, y'all bleeped me last time, but I know how to say it without getting bleeped. Okay. I would remake Coming to America, but it'd be a young lady named America, and you call it blank in America, right? So Hakeem and Simi would be blanking in America. That's one. That's perfect.
Starting point is 01:11:20 You got one? I think Masturbation Point is good, so I would do based off Beyonce's Me, Myself, and I. Ooh. And then I think that could be good. Just like a nice masturbation porn. And I'm all about... When maybe she's upset, she just went through a breakup. That's hard.
Starting point is 01:11:36 I'm all about diversity. So I would do a gay porn. Charlamagne the dog? No. I would have a bunch of dirty cops. One is named Alonzo. And it's a new guy named Hoyt. And then Alonzo and his boys all sleep with the new guy Hoyt.
Starting point is 01:11:49 They all sleep with him at once, and you call it training day. As in train, you run a train, training day. Yeah. Okay, you really thought these out? Yeah, yeah, that'd be a good one. Okay. Let's go to the phones and see what they got. So you're starring it?

Starting point is 01:16:53 Yes. Having all the philosophical conversations you guys have, right? Hey, highbrow stuff here on The Breakfast Club, baby. Okay, so what would your porn be about? All right, so porn. Oddly enough, I thought about this, right? So you know like how after school, like at nighttime, the parents meet together for a PTA meeting?
Starting point is 01:17:10 Mm-hmm. Those things are so boring. And I can only imagine like if the whole situation starts up like an after school PTA meeting. Oh, a PTNA meeting. Huh? A PTNA meeting? A PTNA meeting. Yo, Bang Bros, holler at us!
Starting point is 01:17:25 Yeah, like a&A meeting. Yo, Bang Bros, holler at us. Yeah, like a PT&A meeting. You know, a bunch of horny ass, like, middle-aged people together. Why not? Yes. All right, I like the PT&A meeting. I like that. You could do a movie based off just, like, oral sex and call it Jaws. And, like, when the woman's walking to the camera, you have the Jaws music playing.
Starting point is 01:17:43 You know what I'm saying? Like, there's just so many dope stuff you can do. Oh, okay. I think I have a really good one. Talk to me. We could do a porn called The Breakfast Club, right? And it could be one girl and she walks in on the two guys having sex with each other from The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:17:58 And what's going on? Show them to me. Go ahead, talk. I'm bringing somebody in here. You're doing the movie right now. I'm bringing somebody in here. Sounds like you're doing the movie right now. I'm bringing somebody in here. Hey. Oh, Kirk Franklin's here.
Starting point is 01:18:08 Hey, Kirk, just real quick. Good morning. How are you? We're not starting the interview yet, but I want to ask you something real quick, Mr. Franklin. Oh, Lord. Why are you doing this to Kirk Franklin? Today is Friday.
Starting point is 01:18:17 Today is Friday, so you know what that means. It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. And you know what? And I'm getting ready to go, because I know where this is going. No, listen. Today's topic is about porn. Okay. No, true story.
Starting point is 01:18:30 Porn. Talking about porn. Willow Smith is directing her own porn. She's not directing it. What is she doing? She got an offer. She said that she likes artistic porn. And she got an offer to direct her own.
Starting point is 01:18:38 Yeah. And I don't know if that's something I'd be comfortable with with my daughter. I said the same way. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. Never. So now you're talking about porn. And you saw me out there. something I'd be comfortable with with my daughter. I said the same way. Yeah, never enough.
Starting point is 01:18:48 So now you're talking about porn, and you saw me out there, so you wanted me to come in. No, because we're talking about the porns we would create. Yes. So my idea, I had an idea called Coming to America. Okay. And you have a young lady named America. Yeah, but it's all about him talking to me about it.
Starting point is 01:19:04 Yeah, so I want to know if you could create a porn, what would it be? Okay, well, if I probably would not do it, I think it probably would not be in my best interest to even consider that. I probably would just pass. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Can I go now? All right, Kirk, you fun killer.
Starting point is 01:19:19 My God, Kirk. All right, we'll talk to you in a second, man. Thank you, Kirk. You look good, my brother. You look my brother. We'll bring you back in in a second, man. Kirk Franklin, ladies and gentlemen. I ain't even going to tell them my idea about Stomp.
Starting point is 01:19:35 What was your idea? What was your idea? Why would you do that? I feel bad that I'm... Oh, but you know He has a new album out That's true And it's called Long Live Love That's a great porn
Starting point is 01:19:48 I do have a gospel porn Long Live If I wasn't I could I could do a gospel porn I could have somebody Play me
Starting point is 01:19:55 Right And it would be called The God in me And it'd be Mary Mary Playing throughout The whole thing The God in me Yes
Starting point is 01:20:03 Alright I'm tired Of playing this game No you're not I'm not really throughout the whole thing. The God in me. Yes. All right, I'm tired of playing this game. No, you're not. I'm not really. We got the room report up next year? Yes. I don't even know what's happening. We're going to talk about Tiffany Haddish and her secret recordings.
Starting point is 01:20:17 It has nothing to do with porn. All right, it's The Breakfast Club. It's Freaky Friday, goddamn. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up.
Starting point is 01:20:35 So Tiffany Haddish was doing a roundtable for The Hollywood Reporter, and she was talking about auditions and what she would secretly do. She would actually leave her purse in the room, listen to what she said. I would put my phone on voice memo, put it in my bag, walk out the room, leave my bag, come back, be like, oh, I forgot my purse in there, get my purse. You've actually done that? Get in the car. Let me look under the table. What would you hear?
Starting point is 01:21:02 I love this. She's not as urban as I thought she would be. That was the word, yeah. That's the word I don't want to hear. Or they would be like, she's so ghetto. I just can't. Her boobs aren't big enough. But I really think we should just go with a white girl.
Starting point is 01:21:15 This role should be changed to white. That's psychological torture, man. Yeah. So you want to hear what people have to say about you behind your back as soon as you walk out the room? Yeah, it's like reading comments on social media. You're not supposed to know what everybody is thinking about you because, truth be told, what they think about you doesn't matter. You might be on the right track. You might have the thing that changes the game.
Starting point is 01:21:33 But you hear someone's comment to you and you let that external factor influence you in a negative way. That's actually called locus of control. My therapist taught me that yesterday. I know people who have left their recording running, like a phone recording, and caught their boyfriends cheating like that because they knew that he was cheating. So left the phone recording and then left and then heard their boyfriends' conversations with other women.
Starting point is 01:21:53 I wonder how much of that really did influence Tiff, though. Because all those agents were clearly wrong. Like all those agents that turned her away. She said sometimes it was helpful, though, for constructive criticism. That's what I want to know. Like I want to know how much really helped her. All right, now let's talk about JT from City Girls. She's still in jail, unfortunately, for identity fraud,
Starting point is 01:22:10 and she got denied an early release. But she was on the phone with P from Quality Control, and she has a message for y'all. I need you to get home so we can get that money, man. Mm-hmm. I'm ready to come home, Sophie. I got you on my Insta story. You want to say something to somebody? Hey, y'all. What's up? I miss y'all. I know y'all miss me. Free JT
Starting point is 01:22:31 When is she coming home though? I guess not till next year now Since she didn't get that early release Jesus Christ That's too much pressure on young Miami You know what I'm saying? You got a lot going on Do they got more music?
Starting point is 01:22:41 I know they put out a project last year They put out two projects last year If I'm not mistaken I wonder if they got more music in the know they put out a project last year. They put out two projects last year, if I'm not mistaken. I wonder if they got more music in the stash. I don't know, but I love City Girls, so. I like the City Girls, too. I mean, I hope Young Miami can hold it down until JT comes home. She's been doing good, though.
Starting point is 01:22:56 She's been all over the place, still. Yeah. I mean, she probably can just cool off. It could just be features for the next year. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I think it'd be nice to wait. And it's not that much longer. Like, you know, you can wait till next year. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I think it'd be nice to wait. And it's not that much longer. Like, you know, you could wait till next year.
Starting point is 01:23:07 I know it's difficult. All right, now Lee Daniels, he's been trying to shop Star and get it on somewhere else, but it doesn't look like it's working out. He said, thank you guys for loving Star. I'm at a loss for words to describe my sadness. I'm going to just say thanks to my incredible cast and crew and fans. So, unfortunately, the cancellation of Star has been announced and it's not going anywhere else as of now.
Starting point is 01:23:28 But Lee got other stuff going on. They got Whitney Cummings' show coming. She got a show. Miss Pat got a show. Like, Lee worked here. But I'm sure that's his baby still. And people really love that show. So, when you have something that's been running, it's been successful,
Starting point is 01:23:40 you don't want to see it go. Lee's a creator, though. He'll be fine. All right. Now, John Witherspoon has confirmed that the Boondocks is coming back. I could have told you that. He was on the Joe Rogan Experience, and he stated that on the latest
Starting point is 01:23:51 episode. They're in pre-production now for a new season. I just want y'all to know, man, y'all think I just be posting Boondocks stuff because I randomly want to post Boondocks stuff. I love the Boondocks. I genuinely love the boondocks but yes there was a plan boondocks been back as far as the comic trips is concerned we started
Starting point is 01:24:09 posting the comic scripts earlier this year all right now let's talk about kanye west he was on david letterman and here is his description about what it's like to be bipolar i can just tell you what i'm feeling at the time and i feel a heightened connection with the universe when I'm ramping up. It is a health issue. This is like a sprained brain, like having a sprained ankle. And if someone has a sprained ankle, you're not going to push on him more. With us, once our brain gets to a point of spraining, people do everything to make it worse. I like that. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:24:50 I like that. You got to take care of yourself. You got to take care of yourself. And you're right, when you know somebody. But everybody has some sort of mental health issue, so you really shouldn't be pushing anybody. You know what I'm saying? Because you really don't know what other people are going through.
Starting point is 01:25:04 All right. Now, David Letterman also says that you really don't know what other people are going through. All right. Now, David Letterman also says that he would be open to having Jay Leno on his show. So that could be interesting. Why wouldn't he? They don't got beef no more. They're not competing every night against each other. So I don't know what behind the scenes, what it's really like. Maybe it got real.
Starting point is 01:25:19 All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. All right. Coming up next, we have the greatest magical trick of all time. What was that sigh for? Because Envy has his people's choice mix. Everybody knows Envy ain't been here all morning. I know, I miss my mix, the Yee mix.
Starting point is 01:25:31 But Envy left a mix to play because I guess he don't want nobody filling in for him, which is smart. But Envy's people's choice mix is up next. No need for me to lie to you and give you the phone number and tell you to call in for requests because you know goddamn well that any request you make, if it does play,
Starting point is 01:25:47 it was just a lucky guess. But you can see if you're psychic. All right. It's the Breakfast Club. It's the Breakfast Club. I'm Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God is here.
Starting point is 01:25:54 DJ Envy is not here today, but thank you to Elizabeth Warren for joining us this morning. Salute to Elizabeth Warren. Mm-hmm. I mean, I don't know. It was an interesting interview.
Starting point is 01:26:04 You know, it's always interesting talking to the 2020 presidential candidates, not even just presidential candidates, but just people in that political sphere in general. Did you seem genuine to you?
Starting point is 01:26:12 I'm not going to front the Native American thing threw me off. You know, I'm still questioning why you would pretend to be a Native American all those years. And I have even more questions.
Starting point is 01:26:21 Like, so when you found out you were a Native American, did your whole family's lineage, you know, go up in smoke? Like, I don't know. That's a little much. All right. I mean, genuine as far as her policies and plans, yes, she has a lot of those. But, eh, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:26:38 I don't know. I don't know. I pay attention more. It's still open for debate. Yes. All right. Now, what you got going on this weekend? Not a goddamn thing.
Starting point is 01:26:47 I will be home on the couch, okay? I'll be on the pergola eating s'mores with my kids. Well, what you should do while you're home is watch this movie that I actually saw that's on Netflix. It comes out today, and I think you'll love it. Ali Wong is in it. My wife loves Ali Wong. Yeah, and it's hilarious, And she wrote it, too. They both wrote it together.
Starting point is 01:27:06 And Keanu Reeves is in it, and he has an amazing role, which they've asked us to keep a secret until you actually see the movie to see what his role is going to be in it. But Go See, well, not Go See, but Watch It at Home, Always Be My Maybe. On Netflix? It's a great rom-com. Yes, it's on Netflix. So you and your wife should watch that movie together.
Starting point is 01:27:22 The kids can watch it also. Okay. And it's super cute, and I think you'll really, really, really enjoy it. I will check that out. Mm-hmm. All right. And that's just a recommendation for everybody. Also, happy birthday again to Mike Kaiser.
Starting point is 01:27:35 Kaiser! Yes. I don't know if I should say, but we're going to be celebrating Kaiser's birthday all weekend, so I'm sure he's going to be drunk yet again. Dropping the clues bombs for Mike Kaiser. I love that guy. Mm-hmm. All right. You know clues bombs for Mike Kaiser. I love that guy. All right.
Starting point is 01:27:45 You know why I like Mike Kaiser? Because Mike Kaiser treats the custodian the same way he treats the goddamn CEO. Throughout my radio career, no matter what position I was in, Kaiser showed me the same love and respect. He told me I wasn't s*** when I wasn't s***, and he still tells me I ain't s*** now. You know you can't curse on the radio. Oh, my bad. Oh, my God. Well, salute to Mike Kaiser and Atlantic Records. We appreciate you.
Starting point is 01:28:06 All right. And contrary to popular belief, we do not all get paid from Atlantic Records. All right, well, let's get that positive note since we're talking about getting paid when we come back. Okay, Charlamagne? Yes, it's the Breakfast Club. It's the Breakfast Club. I'm Angela Yee. Charlamagne is here. Now, Charlamagne, you got that positive
Starting point is 01:28:21 note of the day for us? Yes, today is the last day of Mental Health Awareness Month, but you know mental health awareness is a lifestyle, not just a month, but I want to tell everyone that emotional pain is not something that should be hidden away and never spoken about. There's truth in your pain. There's growth in your pain, but only if it's
Starting point is 01:28:38 first brought out into the open. As the great Sean Carter said, you can't heal what you don't reveal. Breakfast club, bitches! You all finished or you all done? Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag.
