Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it.

you listen to podcasts. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Let's talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlemagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we have our co-host Lisa Ray in the building. She's co-hosting today. Who are you, Lisa Ray?

Yes. And we're asking, have you ever got a co-worker fired? Now, this came from a rumor. A rumor? That Lisa Ray had got Stacey Dash fired from Singalady. Right. And Lisa Rae said to me, did I get Angela Yee fired? Right.

So that's the question. Well, this is the audio of the argument that happened with Lisa Rae and Stacey Dash, where the rumor came from. I don't know to this day why she was stuck on stupid with that. I just don't know. But, so we took a break But so we took a break. And we took a break. I walked over to her and said, Stacy, just do the line the way she wants you to do it so we can get a body hit. And she put her finger up in my face.

And she said, you don't tell me anything. And you could hear a pin drop on the set. Because when I tell you every bit of Southside Chicago was brewing up in here That made me go Stacey If you don't get your finger out of my face, but that was all I had to say Because once I said that she took off made a beeline to her dresser room But I was gonna be right behind her cuz I couldn't take my shoes off that quick. So I was like wait a minute

Hold on. It was like okay. I thought maybe she had wanted to talk to me in private and i was going to grant her that that you know people thought that she got her fired but lisa ray is saying that is a rumor that's not true that's a rumor because i don't have that much power that was the network's decision now charlamagne do you have that much power no that was come on angelina has her own show called wake up with angelina it's's a spinoff of The Breakfast Club. It comes on right after The Breakfast Club, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Yeah, but that don't answer the question if you got a fire from here. No, I do not.

I don't have that kind of power. Okay, there you go. Say it loud for the people in the back. Have you ever got somebody fired, Indy? Me? He still ain't answering the question. Let me think. You don't take that much.

I'm sure I have. I'm petty like that, so I'm sure I have. I've definitely gotten people fired. You did? Of course. Where? Who? I don't know.

Throughout the course of history, yeah. Breakfast Club. You know what I mean? Because if people not doing their job or they not moving the way we need them to move, you know, you got to make decisions. Get them out of here. Absolutely. Definitely.

Breakfast Club, we definitely did. Who? Y'all was in this together. Don't say who then. You know who. I think I know who. You know who. Oh, yeah, yeah.

I know a few. I don't know who. We don't know who. We don't know who. What about you, Lisa? Have you ever gotten anybody fired? I like how you did that. That's pretty good.

I'm going to let you slide on that. No. No? I have never gotten anybody fired. No, I'm petty. I like people to work and if you don't come to work to work uh because everybody has a job everybody has a position if you don't do your job in your position that means we're losing and if we lose that means

i can't feed my families and other people around can't feed their families so if you don't want to work we don't need you here maybe this job is not for you so we've i've gotten somebody fired up here before and charlamagne has and I am very instrumental in customer service. I'm really high on that. And they're lacking that nowadays. So I like to pull people to the side and tell them how important it is that they have this position and this job. And it's like, come on, you can do better because we got to do better. I do that.

I did get somebody fired. Remember that person that called that time and they called me an F-boy? You was disgusting for that. What? You were disgusting for that. Why? You were disgusting. This dude got a girl, a young lady fired because she was upset that Envy didn't tip her because she helped Envy to his car. You cursed that girl out on the radio and got her fired. That was wrong.

That was foul. That wasn't the case. That was foul. Even though she shouldn't have expected a tip. Right. She worked at Bye Bye Baby, right? I wouldn't even bring that story up. She might sue you now for emotional distress.

It wasn't even her. Somebody helped me to the car, and I took off. I left. What's the problem? She called the radio the next day and called me an F-boy and went off on me. Yeah, because you come to that store with that expensive-ass car, expensive-ass clothes on, and can't tip nobody. I didn't have expensive... I'm kind of on her side with this one.

But he said it wasn't her. It wasn't her. It was me and homie. But I'm still on her side because he came back and was like, man, you know he ain't even tipped me? Imagine going back to your coworker and you just walked this man in his Phantom

and he's like, this man ain't even tipped me. Phantom, huh? It wasn't no Phantom. It wasn't a baby criminal. He lying. And I will say what uh what lisa ray said about not having the power to do something you can only make recommendations right so you can

only go to the powers that be and be like a x y and z isn't doing x y and z just for the record i didn't even do that with stacy dash i didn't even go and say anything like that it was to me it was i could work with her next day i mean because i don't need to like you to make money oh you did work with her the next day yeah I mean, because I don't need to like you to make money. Oh, you did work with her the next day? Yeah. She bought security and everything. I didn't know what they were there for. I felt the tension in the room. I was like, what is the security?

And they was like, for your ass. It was like, what? I was like, I don't have a problem with this, I think. You know what I mean? But I will. I'm sure I got a bunch of people fired. Because if somebody's racist to me or I feel a way, I will go to their boss and I will write a letter immediately. Ain't nobody ever been racist to you.

Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. When I used to go to their boss and I will write a letter immediately. Ain't nobody ever been racist to you. Yes, absolutely. Absolutely. When I used to go to a car dealership, when I used to go to a car dealership and I would go to look for a car and people wouldn't help me, they would just sit there and let me walk around the dealership for a long time,

I would definitely make them complain. All the time. Oh, they just thought you had no money. That's all. Why? Because I was black and I was in a dealership. You're Dominican. I'm not Dominican.

I'm black. You know what? I hate you, man. Let's go to the phone line. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I'll get you fired. Kayla, good morning. You keep talking crazy to me.

Hi. Hi. Have you ever got a person fired, Kayla? Um, yes. Take us off Bluetooth. Take us off speaker so we can hear you, mama. Yeah, I did. I had to take you Out of my Bluetooth I'm sorry

Yeah I did It was like years ago It was I was working at Like a little store In like a shopping center And I was working with This older lady

She was like Maybe in her 30s At the time And It was real annoying anyway so didn't nobody like her ass anyway and we were working one night and there was like a group of black kids like high schoolers walking around the plaza not bothering anybody and she's gonna look at me and say oh they shouldn't let kids just walk around like that look at them you don't know what they're doing what they're getting into and she just went on this whole rant about how these kids shouldn't be allowed to walk around the parking

lot they were all black so it was just i mean if she was racist anyway we already knew so i just used that as an opportunity to get her fired so we all couldn't stand her okay thank you now just to play white devil's advocate here what if those kids were up to no good rose yes good morning good morning good morning everybody good morning good morning rose oh my god i'm on the radio hi solomay i love you i love you more rose oh yeah so i'm calling today because I have never gotten anyone fired, but I am in the process

of trying to get someone terminated. What are you trying to get fired, mama? Well, this guy in my... I work for an appliance manufacturer. I've been working

for them for 20 years. It's like the easiest and the most comfortable place to work at. And this guy is just overly comfortable. He's excessively absent. He randomly, oh, I have to leave early. I have an emergency.

He's 20-something years old. I don't know what kind of emergency he has. And he doesn't help out at work. Everyone else helps each other out when we're overwhelmed. He just sits there and he does his little thing. three o'clock comes he's out the door now you sound like a little does his work affect your work because if it doesn't affect your work it's like you're on a hating like on the hating fence no it totally dies if he doesn't come in and that his work falls on other people's hands and there's extra work for other people. On top of their other responsibilities.

And it's just unfair. Maybe you should just have a conversation with him and make sure he's not going through nothing first. Yeah, he might be having some problems at home. He might be lack of customer service. Well, I heard through the grapevine he confided in someone else that he actually has another side job. See, you a whole rat. You ratting on me now. You a whole snitch out here.

It don't sound like that. That's how you snitch it on that man. You're pushing through the roof and you mad because somebody got a side job. You know me? He a little lady late and you trying to tell on him. I think he was right about the haterism. That sounds like a little hater. We are second worst enemy, boy.

After the white man. Why don't we do it? Why don't we do it? 800-585-1051. Have you ever got a coworker fight? Call us now. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on.

I'm Mark Aron. I ain't no way, man. I ain't playing. I ain't playing. I ain't playing. I ain't playing. That kid don't even deal with that. Call me.

Send your opinion to the Breakfast Club top. Come on. 800-585-1051. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking about have you ever got a co-worker fired? Now, we're here with our co-host, Miss Lisa Rae.

The story came from Lisa Rae, but she's saying it's a rumor. It's not true. Yeah, it was a rumor. Can we just play the little clip of why we thought that? I don't know to this day why she was stuck on stupid with that. I just don't know. But, so we took a break. And we took a break.

I walked over to her and said, Stacy, just do the line the way she wants you to do it so we can get a body hit. And she put her finger up in my face. And she said, you don't tell me anything and You can hear a pin drop on the set because when I tell you every bit of Southside Chicago was brewing up in here That made me go Stacy If you don't get your finger out my face, but that was all I had to say Because once I said that she took off made a beeline to her dressing room,

but I was going to be right behind her because I couldn't take my shoes off that quick. So I was like, wait a minute, hold on. It was like, okay, I thought maybe she had wanted to talk to me in private, and I was going to grant her that. So after that argument, people assumed that you got Stacey Dash fired. And I don't know how they assumed that.

I guess because, you know, after the next season, she wasn't there. Correct. I mean, I get it, but no, I wouldn't assumed that. I guess because, you know, after the next season, she wasn't there. Correct. I mean, I get it. But no, I wouldn't do that. I'm really, I'm not a petty person. I understand people need their jobs, their money, and I understand people go through things.

Right. And we're women, you know what I mean? And we're emotional. And even if she would have told me whatever was going on that night that caused the, you know, disagreement, I'd have been like, all right, cool, next day is whatever, whatever.

It just continued a little bit more than what it should have. And for me, it was like, what is your problem? That's not petty though, somebody putting a, well, almost putting a, I don't know, did she put her hand in your face? She did. Oh, man. See, that's not petty. Now you violating my safety and my boundaries and you putting me in a position where I might have to defend myself. Well, that's

why the rumor continued that I was going to get up. You know what I mean? And so. I will say this. If you make me uncomfortable or you make me feel in a way where I don't want to come to work or if I'm paying for a service and you're not giving me that service, I will complain. If I'm on a plane and there's a stewardess and she's acting nasty and I bought a first class ticket or a Delta Comfort ticket or a regular ticket, treat me with respect. And if you don't, I'm going to complain. If I go to a restaurant

and the waitress is acting like a D-head or whatever it may be, I'm going to complain. I just don't know if that works, though. You can complain, but you go back the next week and that person's still there. Social media pretty strong, though. And when you light-skinned and the veins start popping up in your neck.

Your veins start showing in your neck like he does. He turn red. People listen to him a little bit. Yo, shut up. Hello, who's this? Yo. Hey. Chris, take us off Bluetooth for speaker.

My bad, my bad. We good? Yeah, yeah, we good. I've definitely gotten somebody fired, dog. He kind of backfired on me a little bit. But you know what? First, I want to say good morning, Charlemagne, DJ Envy, beautiful Lisa Rae. Peace, King. Good morning. Thank you. What's going on what's going on brother yeah man so check it out man i was a security

I was a security guard. Top play. You know what? I got a security company now, man. I'm a fitness man. Congratulations, brother. Yeah, I fired the plan then. Hello, who's this?

This is Nikki. Nikki, good morning. Good morning, good morning, good morning. How you guys doing? Good, good. Have you ever got somebody fired at your job or work? yeah i got somebody fired before i like how you said that with conviction say it with your chest tell us about it i bet so i was working at the pharmacy and there was this girl her name's lucretia and mind you we both started working at the same time

i'm a full-blown lesbian i take birth control so so that, you know, after just my menstrual, so on and so forth, she was taking it so that she ain't having no more kids because she got four kids. Hold on, slow down. Hold on. I'm going to put y'all a little slow now. You said you were a lesbian, but you take birth control to not get your period, you say? Or control your period? Yeah, basically. Okay.

And she was taking it so she didn't have any more kids because she already had four. She's only 24, 25, I think. But, all right, whatever. So, we did, and I get pulled over by one of my supervisors. And he's just like, yeah, you know, birth control is coming up. This is in a pharmacy. And, you know, someone's telling us that it's you.

And I'm just like, I know it's not me. I know it's not me. And then I ask one of my other co-workers, and he tells me that it's her. So, I pull her to the side, and I'm like, why are you stealing these birth control pills? And I'm the one that's getting in trouble for this. And she's just saying, because, you know, I need the job. I'm like, I need the job, too. So what you chatting about?

So I showed her this good problem. I was like, I'm a full-blown lesbian. I ain't trying to have kids. I was like, she don't want no more. I was like, she don't want us taking it. And he was like, really? And then, like, we looked on camera, and it is her. And I'm like, all right, bad. I'm like, I don't care. But then she got mad at me and didn't want to come it. And he was like, really? And then we looked on camera, and it is her. And I'm like, all right, bad.

I'm like, I don't care. But then she got mad at me and didn't want to come to my house for Christmas. And I'm just like, all right, bad, I don't care. Oh, well, you're fired. Too bad. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. So y'all were friends?

Because you said she didn't want to come to your house for Christmas. So y'all was friends. That's my cousin. Oh, my God. This is too much now. Oh, my goodness. This is too much. I was trying to follow the story, and it was like, whoa, whoa.

You could have just let them do what they was going to do and catch your own tape. You didn't have to say nothing. You knew it wasn't you. This is what I think happened. I think both of them were stealing the birth control pills. They were. They both were stealing.

And they were butting heads because so many pills was missing because both of them were stealing. And then she played the LGBTQ card. Which was a good play. That was a great play. I'm lesbian. I'm lesbian. Why would I be stealing birth control?

Right. That's a great play. She the one that won the most be stealing birth control? Right. That's a great play. She don't want no more kids. You're damn right because I ain't trying to get caught. So you admit both of y'all were stealing the pills? You admit both of y'all were stealing the pills? I don't want to admit it, but I'm not working anymore. I swear to God.

This is why Jesus ain't coming back. This is why Jesus ain't coming back. Jesus is sick of y'all, man. Boy, I swear to God, boy. Boy, boy, boy, boy, boy, boy. Sometimes I just understand why the white man created some of the legislation

he created for y'all. You pull a boss in the thing and be like, how am I going to steal it? I'm a lesbian. And what do you say as a boss? You can't go against that. That's smart.

They could have just went to the cameras like she said. They had an old girl on camera. You could have left it at that. Damn, well, what's the moral of the story if there is a moral? The moral of the story is I reserve the right if somebody's not doing what they're supposed to be doing to complain to the higher ups to get them, you know. Terminated.

Exactly. Terminated a fight. You terminated a fight. Damn it, man. You're out of here. All right. Well, we got rumors on the way. Give us a little tease.

What are we talking about? A little bit of something. Say we're going to talk about some suspected celebrity breakups. Oh, all right. We'll get to that next. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
