It's your prerogative. Well, it's Friday. We got some special guests joining us this morning. We have Lisa Price, who is the founder of Carol's Daughter. Lisa Price, yes. And Latham's Daughter. Lisa Price, yes. And Latham Thomas, who is a celebrity doula. She's a doula. She's not a celebrity doula.

She's just a doula. Yeah, she's not just a celebrity doula. As I said, she's a doula. She definitely is. My wife did not have to have a C-section for our third child because of Latham. And the doctors definitely told her that she was going to have to have a C-section. Latham was like, no, no, no, no, no. Uh-uh.

Uh-uh. And because of Latham, we had that vaginal birth. So I love Latham. The glow, Maven. Own your glow. And also, new artist by the name of. Because it is black. And one more thing I was going to say.

It is Black Maternal Health Week this week. So I just want to make sure you guys all know about that. Because black women are three to four times more likely to die in childbirth than any other race. More than white women. And we have a new artist named Marae joining us this morning. Carolina Zone. North Carolina Zone. That's my Carolina brethren.

Alright, well let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? You know, I wish I had some good news for you on a Friday, but unfortunately most of the news that I had this morning, there was eight people killed after a mass shooting in Indianapolis. And we'll tell you what we know so far. All right. We'll get into that next.

Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ and V. Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God. What's happening? We are the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Let's get into some front page news. Where are we starting, Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get in some front page news. Where we starting, Yee? Well, let's start with this shooting that happened late last night in Indianapolis at a FedEx facility. At least eight people were shot and killed. And it's near Indianapolis International Airport. Now, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers responded to that shooting. And when they arrived, they found an active shooter incident. They said this is a tragedy but we will come through it with flying

colors. According to the department spokesperson they said the gunman had died and the public is not believed to be in immediate danger. They said it was too early to tell whether the shooter was an employee at the facility. We're still trying to ascertain the exact reason and cause for this incident. At least four people were transported to local hospitals, including one person with critical injuries, with injuries consistent with gunshot wounds. And two other people were treated at the scene. No law enforcement officers were injured. Other injured people took themselves to hospitals in the area. And this Indianapolis hub for FedEx employs more than 4,500 team members.

It's the second largest hub in the company's global network, according to a representative. Yeah, we know what the cause is most of the time, though, right? Mentally and emotionally unstable people with access to weapons. Yeah, you know, the sad thing about it, you know, they were saying that everybody had to check in their phones

when they go to work. So people couldn't call the police right away because they didn't have their phones on and their phones were in the locker. So you mean to tell me they work at a facility where people check their phones, but they don't check for guns? Pretty much.

That doesn't even make no sense. I'm telling you, all of these facilities have to have metal detectors and stuff now. Sorry, a lot of facilities, but a lot of people have to have armed security. That's just the world we live in. But you know, in certain places, you're allowed to carry a gun no matter where it is.

Like, even in certain venues. And the only reason I know is because when I do these seminars and car shows, it's like, I ask metal detectors, it's like, no, this is an open carry venue. You're allowed to carry. But even in those open carry states, if I'm not mistaken, a lot of those venues have the right to refuse you with your weapons as well.

So it's like, you know, those are the type of precautions we got to take in 2021. Well, police did arrive last night at 11 p.m. and they responded. They came in and like I said, they believe there's there's no more harm that can be done. Two employees inside the building at the time said that they heard as many as 10 gunshots. And they said at first they thought the sound was from a car. But after hearing more, that's when one of them stood up, Jeremiah Miller, and saw a man with a weapon, he said. He said, after hearing the shootings, I did see a body on the floor behind a vehicle.

They then left the building and watched as about 30 police cars responded. They said, thank God for being here because I thought I was going to get shot. Hey, man, we live in the United States of anxiety. You can wake up every day and pick your trauma. OK, every single day. There's something that keeps us on edge. And if there's not, you ain't paying attention. All right.

And I just want to let people know who have gotten the vaccination. According to the CEO of Pfizer, they say a third COVID vaccine dose is likely needed within 12 months of getting fully vaccinated. And he also said it's possible people will need to get vaccinated against coronavirus annually, which I think is what they had already been saying. Now, when it comes to Johnson and Johnson, they are saying that a man in Mississippi has been partially paralyzed and unable to talk after getting the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. He's paralyzed on one side of his body. According to his family, he suffered a stroke soon after stepping out last week to get the one-dose shot. Yeah, it's over for Johnson & Johnson.

Okay, it's a wrap. He's a father of seven. He was rushed to the hospital. They determined that he had a stroke as a result of a blood clot in his brain. And how many days did he take that shot? Because I know at one time they were saying between six and 13. How many days did that fall him?

Well, he stepped out to, yeah, he went to go get that one dose shot. And according to his aunt, he said, they called me and said he had the vaccine and that something is wrong. And then he was rushed to the hospital. Oh, right after he got the shot. So not even any time. Wow. There's a good story on Yahoo about how America is about to hit a vaccine wall and demand for the vaccine is dropping. With or without Johnson & Johnson.

Now, they were saying that even in the Jacob Javis Center, which was one of the biggest centers in the country, they said there's 6,000 open slots where people can get the vaccination and people are not signing up. And right now they're saying about 5,800 fully vaccinated people have caught COVID anyway in the United States. But you know, it's not 100% effective though. No one ever said that. Y'all said it was 90-something. Y'all said one of them was

96%. 5,800 out of how many people have gotten it right? It's a small number. 77 million people are fully vaccinated. Right, but they're saying even with the vaccination, you can still get it. The vaccination is so you don't die. Sure, but 5,800 out of 77 million

is a very small percentage. Right, but that's what they're saying. They're saying you still can get it. That's why they're saying you still should wear a mask, but it's less likely that you will die or have serious injuries due to COVID. And don't say 5,800 is a small percentage

because you didn't say that when people were talking about COVID initially. Meaning when CNN started their counter at 1,000 people, 2,000 people, 3,000 people out of 300 something million, y'all weren't saying that's a small percentage. So don't do that with this. People were saying it was a small percentage.

No, they weren't. It was state of emergency. Getting a vaccine does not mean you will not get COVID. That's what they're saying. They're saying that 90% accuracy is saying that you won't get sick. I don't know what the hell y'all talking about. It's 95% effective in preventing symptomatic disease in clinical trials. I know one thing.

I got my steam horse on me right now. There you go. Bring me my orange juice. What the hell y'all talking about? All right. Well, that's front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

I wash my hands. Even though I'm in sanitation, bro, I stay clean, bro. Please. I would hope so. Sanitation workers should be the cleanest. Yeah, so that's what I'm saying. I really want to get my business off the ground. I'm a black man out here, and I'm just

trying to do the right thing in life, period. You know what I mean? I ain't trying to run up and hurt nobody. I'm just trying to do my thing out here. Send it up here, bro, and we'll try it out. You know the address. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Todd. I'm calling from Cleveland. Todd, what's up, this is Todd. I'm calling from Cleveland. Todd, what's up?

Hey, Todd. I'm calling from Cleveland. Got to get it off my chest. Yo, Charlamagne. Angela Yee, you pretty thing. Keep doing your thing. Hey, this is you, Evie. You hearing Evie?

I'm here. This is you, man. That's your show, The Bachelor, right there? Yeah. Mm-hmm. That is. I've seen one full episode of The Bachelor, the very first one. I didn't know that that was a first episode, but it caught my attention because it was Yeah. Mm-hmm. That is. I've seen one full episode of The Bachelor, the very first one.

I didn't know that that was the first episode, but it caught my attention because it was a sister on there that was hot back in the day. I bet she still is. That dude played, this dude, what's his name, Colton Underwood? Yeah. This dude knew he was a homosexual, man. It was on the news last night. That's how I knew about it. He had to know he was a homosexual.

What I have caught, a little bit that I've seen from the back. Hold on, wait a minute, wait a minute. Can I say something? You said that Mr. Underwood should have known he was a homosexual. Of course he knew he was a homosexual. What kind of statement is that? He didn't want to accept it. He said he tried to pray it away.

I didn't say he should have known. I said he knew. Of course he knew. Yeah, he knew. This wasn't new. He didn't have an epiphany in the last few weeks or months or years. The little bit that I've caught from this broadcast is that at least 10 of those honeys every episode, and I'm talking about the women only, okay,

they're really trying to get a good dude and move on with their life. Now, the rest of them might be just there to get on TV, or they're kind of one way or the other about whether they get one. If they get a winner, that's cool, that's nice, but if they don't, so what? They got on TV. But at least 10 of those honeys on any given episode are trying to get a good dude, and he played them.

He played them. He played the one that he ended up picking. He shorted that chick's family, and I'm questioning Whether the producers of The Bachelor Are getting ready to play the audience That watches that show And bring that dude back on And let him pick from a rack of dudes Of course

And that would be amazing Yeah, that's the plan Yeah, I think so I think that's what it's going to be And maybe you and Envy can host it Who, you and Charlamagne? No You ain't talking about me

You wouldn't host it Don't lie to me now You wouldn't host it if they, you and Charlamagne? No. You ain't talking about me because I promise you I ain't going to host it. You wouldn't host it. Now, don't lie to me now. You wouldn't host it if they came to you? I'm totally serious with you. I would not host that show.

I wouldn't host it either. I do not support that kind of behavior. I really don't. What kind of behavior? When I say that kind of behavior, this is what I mean. Are you listening?

I'm listening. If you want to be a homosexual, that's your business. I ain't really got an issue with that. But that dude was playing people. And even homosexuals, I'm your business. I ain't really got an issue with that. But that dude was playing people. And even homosexuals, I'm sure, don't want nobody that got a history of playing people like that.

That's not even my reason for not wanting to host it. I wouldn't host it just because I don't watch the show. Yeah, well, I watch the show, and I would host it. Anyway. Yeah, and I'm sure it was difficult for him to come to terms with that. That's why it took him a while to be able to openly come out. It's not easy. And Dramos, if you want to be a contestant, we can hook that up too.

Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Let's go. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed.

He's a good dude, and he doesn't, he only charges for what he takes off your credit. He doesn't ask for no money up front. I like that. I think he's fair. I use him for anything that I have. He's got my credit into the 800s.

Well, actually, two of them are in the 800s. One of them is still set like a 770, but he works hard, and he's easy to get on the phone. He has a strong team.

Okay, I have a very serious question for you guys, and I think everyone should hear it. So I read on the news today when I was looking when I woke up that if you get the vaccine and you die afterwards, your life insurance is null and void. After you get the shot, your life insurance is null and void.

I don't know if that's true. No, I don't know if that's true. Everybody need to do their own research on that. Yeah, I don't know if that's true. Good to talk to you, too. Okay, look, I just read an article already saying that that's false information. I do know that the COVID-19 vaccine isn't approved by the, what, FDA, is it? Yeah, that's what it's saying.

Yeah, so it's not approved by the FDA. If you take it, you're not able to sue any of the pharmaceutical companies later. That I know. I don't know about your life insurance. I just want to make sure my family will be able to take care of me

if something was to happen. I think it's good for people to know. Okay. Well, thank you, my love. It said it's false information. I'm looking at the insurance commissioner. It says the public

should not believe misinformation on COVID-19 and life insurance. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Marco. Hey, what's up, bro? Get it off your chest. Yo, I just wanted to shout out y'all real quick. Charlamagne, Envy,

Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report.

Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, on Nightly Pop, Lonnie Love was on, and Nina Parker was asking her about breaking rules if you've ever been in somebody's house

when you were being nosy and got caught, and here's what happened. I went toler perry's house what did you do you know he told me don't take pictures but i was so excited you know what what happened because i was like looking all around i said tyler ain't no way around you just sneak this little picture it was childish gambino he was performing yeah and i was like i just want just one memory so i like tried to like do my little phone like this and i felt this oh no and i turned around it was tyler he said like that i was like oh so i got you you know when you say you only want one memory you're giving way more credit to your smartphone than your brain because if you cool out and just enjoy the moment you'll

have several memories stored in the best place to have them and that's your mind you can't post your mind that is embarrassing i'm not gonna lie they tell you don't take no pictures and then you get caught taking a picture it's just weird to say i only want one memory like what do you mean you're there enjoy the moment you probably got several i mean that was a memory that which you just uh explained you know what's so funny is that um there are times when you're like, you look back, you're like, man, I wish I had a picture of that day. But unfortunately, sometimes you're in positions where it's just not possible. I like enjoying the moment. All right. Now, after 15 years, LaMarcus Aldridge is stepping away from basketball. He actually posted a letter about his

departure. He said, today, I write this letter with a heavy heart. My last game I played while dealing with an irregular heartbeat. Later on that night, my rhythm got even worse, which really worried me even more. The next morning I told the team what was going on and they were great getting me to the hospital and getting me checked out. Though I'm better now, what I felt with my heart and that night was still one of the scariest things I've experienced. With that being said, I've made the difficult decision to retire from the NBA for 15 years. I put basketball first, and now it's time to put my health and family first. I respect it. Drop on the clues, Bonsford and Marcus Aldridge.

Never met the brother, but that's a very wise choice. And he's letting me know he got his money right. Yeah. Not only that, but this would have been the year that they'd probably get a ring, so he doesn't care about none of that. He just cares about his health and his family, which is dope. Maybe. Maybe.

Pretty close. I'm sure he cares, but that's what makes it a difficult decision. And he's one of only 25 players in NBA history with over 19,000 career points and 18,000-plus career rebounds. Seven-time All-Star, five-time All-NBA. Health first. Health and family first. I respect it.

And like I said, it lets me know he definitely got his money right. Because if his money wasn't right, it'd be very hard for him to walk away. Even with the health issues. Now, our Brooklyn Nets also released a statement letting us know that they fully support LaMarcus' decision. And while we value what he's brought to our team during his short time in Brooklyn, his health and well-being are far more important than the game of basketball. He played there for seven days. How many days was it?

It hasn't been a month. No, it wasn't too many. All right. Well, best, we wish him the best of luck. And that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss E. Now, front page news, what are we talking about?

Well, you know, closing statements are set for Monday. Closing arguments are set for Monday in Derek Chauvin's trial. So, you know, he is not testifying and he actually invoked his Fifth Amendment right. And we'll give you some updates. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Well, they have just released the video of Adam Toledo. He was a 13-year-old Mexican-American boy who was fatally shot by the Chicago Police Department

officer Eric Stillman in the Little Village neighborhood in Chicago and the body cam footage was just released publicly yesterday and it has released a lot of emotional reactions with that release of the video. Protests have happened now. This originally went down on March 29th. And now we've had a chance to see the footage. So the family actually saw the footage a few days earlier just to be able to process it. And then they released it for the public yesterday. But the body cam footage shows the officers at the scene when the shooting took place, including the officer who fired the single shot that struck 13-year-old,

he's a seventh grader, Adam Toledo, in the chest. This is just a really difficult thing to, I don't know if you guys have watched the footage, but really difficult to watch. I'm not watching the video. I refuse to watch the video. We're in a constant state of trauma here in America. I'm not watching the video. I refuse to watch the video. We're in a constant state of trauma here in America. I'm not watching that. So there were multiple 911 calls that were

placed. Officers arrived on the scene with body camera footage and that footage shows about 1 minute and 45 seconds of the officer driving to the scene in the Little Village neighborhood and he got out of his vehicle and he was yelling please stop, stop right effing now to Adam as Adam appears

to pause. And they told him to show your hands. They said, hey, show me your effing hands. Drop it, drop it. And Adam does turn around, put his hands up. He has nothing in his hands and they killed him. And didn't they lie on the young man and say the young man had a gun? You know, they're saying that on the video, he appears to make a tossing motion with his right hand behind the fence before turning to face the officer.

And that's when the officer fired. So they're saying that he threw a gun. I don't know. Yeah. Now, why would I trust people who can't ever tell when someone has a gun? They mistake everything that a person has in their hand for a gun like these people look crazy man i don't even have any words anymore it's like i told y'all we in a constant trauma loop in america this is the united states of anxiety and some of us have

more things to trigger us than others and this is just another trigger in what has been a super traumatic week. Yeah. It really has, man. I'm not going to lie. That's why I'm like, man, I wish I had some good news for y'all this morning, but unfortunately I don't. Now let's talk about Derek Chauvin.

He invoked his Fifth Amendment right yesterday and the defense rested their case in the case of him killing George Floyd. Have you made a decision today whether you intend to testify or whether you intend to invoke your Fifth Amendment privilege? I will invoke my Fifth Amendment privilege today. Is this your decision not to testify? It is, Your Honor. Does anyone promise anything or threaten you in any way to keep you from testifying?

No promises or threats, your honor. What could he say? What is that? He could possibly take the stand and say nothing. We watched. And prosecutor prosecutors would have been allowed to cross examine him if he did take the stand.

So the defense rested their case. Prosecutors did call Dr. Martin Tobin, who testified last week to take the stand. So the defense rested their case. Prosecutors did call Dr. Martin Tobin, who testified last week to take the stand again for a short rebuttal against the defense's medical expert. And so now Monday is when they make their closing arguments. Yeah, I'm nervous. What do you got?

I don't even know like what's about to happen, but I'm really super nervous about this because when I first started watching this trial, I was like, okay. But now I'm not so sure. Yeah, I mean, it's a part of me that's like, you know what, this one feels different than others, but then it's another part of me that's like, no, it doesn't feel different than others.

This is America. A-M-E-R-I-K-K-K-A. Yeah. You know, so I don't know. I really don't. All right. Well, that is your front page news. All right.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like, bro, I'm going to smile because what the f*** is Charlamagne right here? DJ Envy? He right there? What's happening? We live. F*** you talking about? Now, you started off in the church. Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Okay. The church played a good role in my life. I ain't going to lie. God is always first. I don't care what I do. I don't care what I say. I don't care what I say. I don't care how my life is.

He number one. And your mom made you sing, I Believe I Can Fly, which got you in the choir. Because you do a lot of singing in your music. Yeah, yeah. She embarrassed me. But it's cool. That's what mothers do. Right, right, right.

She put me in the most purplest suit she could find. I don't know if she went to embarrassyourkid.com and ordered that shit. But her and my grandma put me from the church and maybe sing I believe I could fly R Kelly in front of the whole church and I was nervous until I people start saying you know You better go ahead boy when you hear that How many times your mom did you sing that song in front of company man? Not that song a lot the songs we sing a lot was fill my cup It's a got a feel my cup let it all the flow Okay, the gospel songs oldest song I grew up Jehovah Witness. I feel my cup, let it overflow.

It's a gospel song, it's the oldest song. I grew up Jehovah Witness, so I wouldn't know. Sh**. You was heavy, too. I can't relate, brother, but I love you. You turn to the head of the choir. Yeah, no cap. My mother, when I was little, she ran the children's choir.

So you know I had to be number one. That's my mother. What's she going to say? Oh, so it was nepotism. It wasn't because you was the best singer? No. It was nepotism? Come on, brother.

I don't know I wasn't the best. Yeah. So where did it turn left? Because you were a gospel singer. You were in the choir. You went through the church. And then it went left somewhere. And then you went to the street.

And then you started running in people's houses. So when did it turn left? I ain't going to lie. When I moved from North Carolina, I moved to PA at like 12. That's when, like, it was hard to get acclimated to the city life. And I ain't gonna lie, like, I started following everybody

because I felt like I had to fit in somewhere. Why'd you move from North Carolina to Pennsylvania? I left my mother, so I'm gonna say this first. She did her f***ing best. But, you know, it's hard when you're raising a kid by yourself. I got kicked out of a lot of schools, so we had to keep changing districts. So we had to move with her sister in Pennsylvania because we had nowhere to go.

So we ended up staying there for like six years, and that was the six years where I realized what the fuck I didn't want to do with my life. I wonder, right, at what point did you realize your mom was just doing her best? Because sometimes we hard on our parents until we get older. So when did you realize that she was just doing her best? When I had my own kids. I started putting myself in her shoes, I understand. She really did her f***ing best.

She could have done better with me. Thank you, mama. And what were you getting kicked out of school for? Fighting. But you played football. You had the whole football team behind you. No cap. I played football. And then I was in the alternative school.

So I had to walk from my school to the other school to play football. I ended up getting told by a teacher and headbutting him and whatnot. You like the teacher? I was a very explain the story. We need details. Matter of fact,

take your coat off if you want to. Let me get a little comfortable. It's going to be a little Mr. Ramos, I love you baby. He's going to say it right now.

I f***ed up, you feel me? And I got love for you homie. No cap. But I was dating a girl. She was in high school and I was at the alternative school so i was at the

alternative school so i was like i feel sensitive let me write her a little love letter you know i love you can with the beat them cheeks up you know how you devise you feel me can i beat those cheeks up nope check yes or no maybe i was young so hey that's all i cared about so i was like yeah i wrote a little letter in my mind it was super sensitive super sweet i folded up, put a little envelope writing on it. So he's like, yo, what you doing? I said, yo, the teacher said I can go ahead and write a letter to her. Go ahead and chill out.

I done my work because I always got done first. He's like, nah, grandma ripped it through in the trash. I'm like, yo, bro, you know how I give it up. Please stop because I don't even want to. I don't because I f*** with him. I don't even want to take a day with you, bro. Like, I got to chill. You feel me?

I wrote it again. Boy, I tried to grab the other one. I say, yo, bro, I'm about to peel you. This is weird now. And it's a teacher? No cap. It's alternative school. Like, is it a gym teacher?

No, they're allowed to grab you, slam you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah, it's not like a teacher. They call it intervention specialist. OK. When a teacher can't handle you, they call the niggas to come grab you and slam you. You feel me?

So that's what he was. I'm like, yo, bro, you gotta chill. Because we're not about to be easy for you like you're not about to just throw me around so chill out boy don't understand i wrote it again he grabbed it and i was like so you was one of them kids because they had me in these classes for a minute your discipline was so bad that they put you in what like like the remedial classes no it wasn't it was um all right boom i went to the the middle school and then like i was too bad for the regular school so they put me in the trails in the back and then the trails in the back i was too much so they kind of built the school for kids

like me and i was in that school and i kind of couldn't graduate to go to like you go there for a while and then they let you out go to the other school but i haven't made it that far did they make you eat lunch earlier than everybody else do? Y'all bonding right now. We understand that. But I do understand those solid lunches. So I definitely had a couple of those. You feel me? Like going to court and eat like a damn sucker. They had me in those for like a semester. Goddamn white cheese,

ham, bread, and white milk. What do you think about that education? Like if you had to say something for parents now whose kids are being put in special classes, what do you think about that? Like do you think about that education? Like, if you had to say something for parents now whose kids are being put in special classes, what do you think about that? Like, do you think it's helpful? Do you think it hurts? What do you think needs to be done for real?

A lot of times when I act up, it was because of stuff that I was lacking in my household or lacking in my life. So, even, like, now I realize I was really just acting up because I really miss my pop or, like, I really miss my family pop or like I really miss my my family And I I was just looking for the wrong attention when I could have went about it the wrong way I didn't know that until now So I think parents got to understand like if your kid is acting up your kid's acting out Try to figure out what's going on because it may be something that they're not telling you or don't know how to express

Before you just beat their ass like be on some like yo Talk to me like it's okay. It's okay. You feel scared. It's okay. You feel upset. It's okay But tell me why you're feeling this way. Let's go through the motions because at the end of the day, a conversation can save everything. That's true. Now, listen, after you headbutted a dude,

what happened? They put me in ISS. I got arrested. He ain't swing back up. I mean, did he fight back? I mean, of course. They all jumped on me and pulled me around. After that, they called the cops.

I went to... I got arrested. Went to the little jail thingy, whatever it could be. They let me on probation. I went to court again. And I got locked up for like 18 months. Damn. I seen somewhere that you got your GED when you was locked up.

Yeah, I got my GED. But I wanted to play football when I came out. But I got kicked out of the alternative school, which was my last resort. So I know that's going to happen. But I had high hopes I could get my GED to go to high school but so you got your GED and thought you were gonna go back to high school I didn't know I thought like I can get that and then get that too like a bonus like this ain't the real diploma this ain't it let me get a pxk this ain't it oh god now in big decisions the song big decisions you say you had to start taking care of yourself since you were nine yeah

why why well like I said my mom worked a lot so there's a lot of time like I had to start taking care of yourself since you were nine. Yeah. Why? Well, like I said, my mom worked a lot. So there was a lot of time I had to watch myself at nine. When you a black kid, you understand that shit. Don't open the door. Don't answer the phone. Sit your ass down. Watch TV. There's lunchables in there.

Relax. So a lot of times with selling candy for school, my mom wasn't there to monitor that. So when they would give me the cash, I kept that shit. Yeah, they give you them chocolate bars to sell for a dollar? I didn't give them nothing. They was pre-ordering. I was getting the cash for the pre-orders. So I didn't have shit to give you.

Right. So, and I appreciate it. So, like, I ain't gonna lie. I'm high. What was the question? How did quicksand take off? How did quicksand take off? Oh how to quickly take off you said we were trying to call you called your wife got my hands over so yeah all right so yeah he called my wife on and some some some afghan dude with like a coif and blonde hair was like yo bro believe in you but your song's amazing I'm like who the f**k is this nah I said bro what'd you what'd you represent well I'm like, who the fuck is this nigga? Nah. I said, bro, what do you represent?

Well, I'm trying to start my label up. Like, what's the name of it? I don't got a name yet. What? Damn. What? I'm like, all right, cool. But like, what's going on?

I sent you the contract. I'm like, you want to send me a contract? I'm like, I don't know what the fuck happened right now. I was, and it sucks because at the end of the day, like, I was at a point in my life where I felt like I was going to go nowhere. I felt like my wife was probably going to leave me eventually because I had no job for a while. I felt like it was really over. And this shit called me.

And I looked up like, yo, this is supposed to be. Thank you, God. It's going to be. I sent a contract to my cousin. She a lawyer. She didn't graduate yet, but don't worry about that. She almost a lawyer. Are you sure you're not in a bad contract right now? No, no cap. I didn't graduate yet, but don't worry about that. She read it. She almost a lawyer.

Are you sure you're not in a bad contract right now? No, no cap. He should have made you the co-CEO. I ain't going to talk about the contract, but let's... How you put the money? Look, I ain't going to lie to you. I'm not going to talk about it. All I'm going to say is this. I know I'm in the best situation I could ever be in.

Got you. Like, I f*** with this man to the point I trust him. And when he called me and he told me the truth, yo, you're not about to be rich fast. I'm not about to give you a bunch of money. We gonna work this shit together. You feel me? Like you put on 50% work.

I put in 50% of the bread. Like, what's up? I'm like, well, you want to put me that way. Cool. And then all of a sudden we put out quicksand and then he put his hands on it and look at it now. If he don't do right by you, just hit me. We got a donkey of the day slot ready for him.

Don't even worry about it. But I want to, hey, I want to go back to something, man. Salute to your wife, because we have these conversations all the time about brothers that are just trying to make it, brothers that have ambition, brothers trying to just put themselves in position. And how long should women stay with them? The fact that y'all stayed down until y'all came up, man, that's big, man. No, that almost never happens.

And she didn't have to. She had plenty of reasons to leave me. And she always told me, like, as long as you don't hurt me to the point where, like, I can't come back, I understand. And now I understand I would never try to hurt you again. Even though I'm in a spot and, like, no cap, to all the females that's been in my DM,

please stop. I love y'all. But my wife gonna f*** me up for y'all. So listen. So was you cheating when you was broke? I f***ed up one time. No cap. I did.

And she forgave me. She didn't have to. And I didn't even expect. And my mom was already divorced. We was married at the time. We was already divorced. I said, she about to leave me. She stuck with me.

Granted, I had to work hard as f***. But I was willing to take that. I was willing. Bro, no cap. She could have been a d***head. She could have cheated back. She could have done whatever she wanted to do. But she didn't.

That's got to be the worst feeling to hurt somebody that's done so much for you. Bro, no cap. When I look at my wife, I get very sensitive because I understand, like, that's my blessing. Like, my wife is like, I can't even explain who she is. I can explain that, like, she's my everything. Well, don't move. We have more with Marae when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I can explain that. She's my everything. Well, don't move. We have more with Moray when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Moray. Charlamagne. You know, I think it is my favorite record of yours so far, Switched Up. Okay, yeah, yeah.

Is that based on a true story? Yeah. Switched Up is based on a lot of events that happened in my life with people who show me their true colors. And people who show you their true colors, you got to believe them when they tell you who they are in the beginning. They always show you. It's always, you always have a first instinct. Like, this nigga right here, weird as shit.

But, like, you let it pass because at the end of the day, you try to give them a chance and be who they're going to be. But then they show you who they really are. Now you're surprised. Does that happen when the money started coming in or was it before? Before the money? Like, I think it was the worst for me as far as, like, people switching up. Because when you broke, my f***ers don't got a sugar coat. How do they feel about you?

Because you broke. Who gives a f***? Like, you a bum, you this, you that, you that. I'm going to f*** with you. Like, people will walk out your life easy when you can't give them nothing. But I feel like it's harder now with money because they're going to say yes and say hell yeah because you got money now. So it's hard to tell who switched up when you rich because and they don't play that role while you around regardless you had to pull up you had

you pulled a gun out for your guy say I always have my back and he know who he isn't you think there's ever any chance for reconciliation? Yeah, yeah, of course. He wrote me the other day. I'm like, yo, what's up? How you been?

I see you turning up and I ain't trying to write you on some shit like because you popping, but just want to say good luck on your success. And see, that's the worst, right? Because now you don't know who you can trust

because you popping. Exactly. You never wrote me before, but I know you heard the song. Every homie that I ever had beef with or I ever like not with them when they heard Switched Up, they all wrote me. That's how I know it was you. Like, the song was in general for every that ever wronged me.

But the that wrote me, now I know you don't with me because I didn't tell you the song was about you. You just wrote me. Them hit dogs hollering. What's up, bro? How you feeling? Hell yeah. Yo, I heard Switched Up.

Who that song about? Oh, you. It's about you. It's about you because you asking. up who's that about nobody else acts who the song about so either dope was not you and you wanna know who the songs about cuz it's about you not do you do you do you rep the Carolinas of Pennsylvania what what what's in you to say snow cat Fayetteville I put the veil because it taught me how to be a man but I also with PA because it taught me what not to do. I had my kids in Fairville.

I got married in Fairville. I became a man. I went to high school in PA and got locked up in PA. They're stupid s*** in PA. Not that I don't want to claim the city. I don't want to claim... Not that I don't want to claim the city. I don't want to claim that guy.

I want to leave him where he at. Because I feel like he did a lot of f*** to people that I can't say sorry for. People are going to hear me talking like, yo, f*** this and if I hurt you, I want to say I apologize because at the end of the day, I was in a different mindset than I am now. I apologize. If people know anything about North Carolina, North Carolina produces some

great lyricists, man. You're talking Fontaine Poole from Lil' Brother. You're talking J. Cole. You're talking Rhapsody. You're talking DaBaby. You're talking about Josie Moe, who I love. None of them ever reached out? Like Cole or DaBaby? Oh, yeah, yeah. I heard rumors you were supposed to sign a Dreamville at one point.

No, people sent a cosign thing, and it was like, oh, he signed Dreamville. That's what always happens. How did he cosign for people that don't know? Basically, he just wrote, like, yo, super amazing. I f*** with your s***. And that's the cosign everybody's talking about. Oh, and he wrote it on your Instagram? Yeah, no cap. And not to mention, like, I've that's the coast I ever talking about Oh, he wrote on your Instagram Yeah, no cap and not to mention like I've talked to him after that and like or he's a solid ass dude

Like he didn't give me no like oh, I'm the king of Fayetteville. I'm this I'm he gave me like yo, bro This is how you can survive in this game. This is what you want to wear watch out for this What do you want to read everything like gave me real big brother advice for somebody?

You didn't have to co-sign me, but you went out your way and did that, so like, solid,

and I always appreciate him for that, no cap. I saw you tweet out recently, too, I used to try to protect my name in situations, but now I just want

to protect my peace. Yeah, like, I feel like a lot of niggas understand, like, they'll get tried, or like,

oh, or they got to play the tough guy in certain situations, but like, honestly, you know boy you're talking to is a bitch for anyways, like, bro, I'm probably punching your shit tough guy in certain situations. But like, honestly, you know boy you're talking to is a bitch for anyways.

Like, bro, I'm probably punching your shit if it wasn't all your homies right here. I'll probably fuck you up if it wasn't in this club. Like, stop playing on me.

Be yourself. I'd rather protect my peace and leave. But I really want to just be a nice guy. Like, and I think people are, they're upset

and don't want me to be. But I don't care because I have no reason to be sad, bro. Like, I still live in the same crib when Mo called me. Like, I still live no reason to be sad bro like i i still live in the same crib but when mo called me like i still live in the same holes in my i live in the same crib bro you're about to say the same holes in your what in my my windows i got holes in my windows

i'm like you cannot have an ap on with if that was the case i'd take take this shit off. But no cap. But nah, like, I still live in this shit. No cap to this day is humbling for me. Because I'm like, yo, like, I really, and once I leave it, I'm going to take pictures and be like, yo, you can always go back to this shit. Do you want to leave or are you not ready yet? I want to leave the house because it's small. But I want to stay in theville. But is it hard to live in that same house and people, you know, because when people see a record and they see $55 million, they think you've got $55 million.

Yeah. So is it hard to still live there and you've got family and friends? Well, there's no Carolina, so it's legal to carry. So if anybody come to my crib, that's on you. You feel me? But I don't have that. Fayetteville don't give me that. Like, you know, they got love, bro.

Like, they show me. When I go to the store to get back with, I get hugs, laughs, pictures. And I love that shit, bro. I love what I'm bringing to whatever I'm bringing because it's bringing me nothing but happiness. How does the way that you write and record now, how has that changed? Because I saw after you signed your deal, you deleted your old music. You're saying it wasn't mixed and mastered properly. And then obviously your wife told you, OK, you got to be more personal in your music.

So now how do you write? Now it's like I write off emotions i let the beat tell a song and i just write with the beat like if the beat come on and i hear like sensitive or sad i'm probably gonna think of something i went through that's sensitive or sad and write to that because that's what i feel is it hard to be vulnerable about about your feelings not in the music not at all okay no cap i think I'm learning like I could be sensitive and still be myself a lot of people think that is part of being yourself yeah like you cry you you get upset are you sad you a bitch now you a

Let me know. I have Flippin' Mars. Flippin' Mars. There's two real estate agents called Flippin' Mars, and they want their lease back. Earth is on a lease, y'all. I don't know if you know it or not. Earth is on a lease, and aliens are coming back to get it.

Okay? UFOs being videotaped and the government confirming that there are UFOs are becoming more and more common. You should pay attention. Okay. Our cousins are here. Well, I'd like to buy some property in Mars. Let me hook me up with a Mars real estate agent if you know one, all right? Mm-hmm.

All right. Well, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk. Lizzo! This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. It is rumor Lizzo. This is the rumor report with Angela. Lizzo was on Instagram and she wants to make sure that you know that it's very important to commit to at least one intentional act of anti-racism a day. Here's what she said. Putting BLM in your bio and posting a black square

is no longer the bare minimum. You have to do an intentional act of anti-racism every single day. Have you donated to bail out a protester? Have you bought from a black business, an Asian business? Have you bought from any person of color today? Have you seen someone getting harassed for the color of their skin and intentionally went over there and stopped it? Have you educated yourself? This is the new bare minimum, everybody. Dropping the clues bombs for Lizzo. Not mad at none of that.

I demand that all white people use their privilege to combat prejudice. I agree with her. I like it. Not mad at it at all. All right. Now, yesterday we were talking about the former Bachelor star Colton Underwood and how he had came out as gay and he did an emotional interview on Good Morning America with Robin Roberts.

Well, according to Variety now, we told you before that he's starring in a new reality show. Well, what is it about? It's an unscripted series that focuses on Colton Underwood living his life as an out gay man for the first time. And he also has a gay guide on the show. And that guy, somebody that's going to guide him through this.

Right. And the person is actually Gus Kenworthy. And he is a skier, an Olympian skier. And he's going to be the perfect mentor for Colton Underwood because he's gone through it too. He's openly gay. They have a lot of shared interests. And that's the information we have so far about this show. And Colton has since wiped his Instagram page clean. And then he shared a collage of Polaroid shots

showing him posing with a horse, running with a dog and drinking coffee and things like that, posing with friends. He said, I have a lot to learn, but I've come a long way. To the people in my corner, I love you. Without you, I wouldn't be here. See, it's a big deal. He's going through a lot right now, and he's going to share that journey with you on Netflix. All right, Javante Davis is going to be headlining

Showtime's spring-summer boxing schedule, so get ready for that. He is going to be fighting Mario Barrios on June 26. And they just announced that yesterday for Showtime. So get ready. And another person I want to talk about, our girl Clarissa Shields. She's going to make her MMA debut and that's going to be on June 10th. So she has the date. Yes, she has an opponent. She's going to be fighting Brittany Elkin on June 10th, according to the Associated Press. It's going to be in Atlantic City, by the way.

All right. Salute to Clarissa Shields. That's the homie. Like seeing Javante Davis fight, too. So, dang, I just dawned on me that Colton Underwood has a whole show coming out on Netflix. That's what she said. I know. Wow. So this is all more publicity for that show. By the way, you

can't really trust this guy. I just want y'all to know that. You can't trust this guy. He did what he had to do to be on The Bachelor, right? And now he's coming out and saying this, and now he's got a show coming out on Netflix. How do we know he's even really gay? He might just be doing that for the Netflix show. Well, I'm sure that it's difficult.

A lot of people who haven't... Think of how many people haven't come out and haven't come to terms with the fact that they're gay and don't want people to know and think that okay i'm gonna just pray it away like he said he tried to do no doubt all i'm simply saying is i don't know if we can trust this guy because he played a role to be on the bachelor yes the show he played a role to be on the bachelor and now he's just announced this netflix show he could be playing another role now to be on the netflix show that's all i'm saying but think about how think about how many people don't want to be

gay who are gay, you know, who don't want to, so they try to live their life as straight. And that's probably what he was doing. I'm not talking about all them people. I'm talking about him. All I'm simply saying is, let's just watch the situation. He played a role to be on The Bachelor. Now he's announced his Netflix show. He could be playing a role to do this

Netflix show. I'm just saying, monitor it. Let's watch it. That's all I'm saying. Well, that is your rumor report. Alright, thank you, Miss Yee. Charlamagne! Who are you giving that to? Man, we need a woman from Tennessee named Amanda McCormick and another woman named Linda Johnson to come to the front of the congregation.

Even though Linda didn't really have nothing to do with it, but we'll talk about it for after the hour. Alright, we'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Peace to the planet. All right. We'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Peace to the planet. Charlemagne the God here. This year has been tough on mental health.

Go to MentalHealthMap.com to be empowered on your mental health and well-being. to throw them blows, man. They wait for Charlamagne to tap these gloves. Let's go. They had to make a judgment of who was going to be on the donkey of the day. They chose you. This is a breakfast club, bitches. Who's donkey of the day today? Yes, donkey of the day for Friday, April 16th, goes to a Tennessee woman named Amanda McCormick.

Okay, now Amanda McCormick was with a woman named Linda Johnson who was a relative. And I know you're asking, who are these young ladies? Well, they are two women who I guess were trying to close the wealth gap by any means necessary. Fun fact, did you know that the wealth gap in America today is over twice what it was in ancient Rome? OK, the top one percent of the richest American, the top one percent of rich Americans control almost 40 percent of all wealth. In ancient Rome, the top one percent controlled only 16% of the country's total wealth. I'm using that example because that wealth gap was one of the contributing factors to

Rome falling, and it will be one of the contributing factors to America falling if this country doesn't correct its course. Now, some would say America has already fallen. I don't think we've completely fell yet, but America has fallen off. Okay, there's several reasons for that but in light of this story let's just talk about the fact that American debt will eventually ultimately destroy the economy just like it did and you guessed it ancient Rome see America thinks it can just print money when it wants well they

can print money when they want but printing money whenever you want does not save economies no no, said Destiny's children. See, the Roman Emperor Nero devalued Roman coins by using less silver, which allowed him to create more Roman coins. But he set a terrible example because Roman emperors that came after him did the very same thing. And over time, inflation ruled everything around Rome

and their currency became worthless. Okay, sound familiar, America? Well, it should. Okay, we on the path to usher bucks for everybody. The dollars you have in your pockets right now with all those old white slave owners on them in the future will be looked at the same way those strippers in Sapphire Script Club looked at those usher bucks.

Now, we went to ancient Rome. We went to Las Vegas only to find our way back to Tennessee with Amanda McCormick and Lynda Johnson. See, I was reading this article in the New York Daily News this morning, and they reported on this story, which came courtesy of the smoking gun. And it got me to thinking about all this stuff. So let me tell you the story. Number one, the wealth gap in America is so bad that Amanda McCormick received a letter from a church. They didn't provide any additional information, you know, what the name of the church was or anything, but she received a letter from a church. They didn't provide any additional information, you know, what the name of the church was or anything.

But she received a letter from the church. Inside that letter was a million dollar bill. Did you hear what your Uncle Charlotte just said? Amanda McCormick received a letter from a church with a one million dollar bill in it. One million dollars. Now think about it. I amanda mccormick i've been praying to god for a financial blessing because the wealth gap gap in america is kicking my ass i receive a letter from a church with a one million dollar bill in it how am i supposed to

know it's fake i even feel it's fake this country prints money whenever however it wants to all i see is numbers on tv. Two trillion here. 1.9 trillion there. People getting millions of dollars for something called NFTs, which is just pictures of feet. It's just money being tossed around all over the place. Why wouldn't I think this million dollar bill is real? Never mind the fact that Dolly Parton is on it. Maybe it was Miley Cyrus or some other famous white woman from Tennessee.

Doesn't matter. Moral of the story is desperate times make people believe what they want to believe. And she believed this million dollar bill was real simply because she wanted to. Now, Amanda McCormick did what any woman in Tennessee who just got a million dollar bill would do. She picked up a relative, which was Linda, and went to the high end luxury brand store known as Dollar General. Drop on the clues, Dollar General. OK, well,, Bonds, for Dollar General. Okay. Well, she proceeded to load her shopping cart full of several gift cards to various businesses,

and she said she was going to use the money to purchase items for care packages for homeless individuals. She went to the counter with a shopping cart full of all this stuff and handed the cashier the million-dollar bill, which might have had Pat Summon on it. Okay, who in Tennessee is going to turn down a million dollar bill with the legendary, one of the greatest coaches of all time, Pat Summitt on it? OK, God bless the dead. I'm making all this up. I don't know if Pat Summitt was on it or not, but I do know the cashier called the police for a suspicious incident. You think? And that's when Amanda explained she was sent this million dollar bill from the church, blah, blah, blah. Now, the incident was classified by the sheriff's office as fraud by false pretenses.

But Amanda and Linda were not arrested. Instead, they were hit with what I think is a way more severe punishment for a woman in Tennessee. And that is they were issued a verbal no trespass warning prohibiting them from returning to the Dollar General store. That might be worse than jail for a woman in a certain tax bracket in Tennessee. Now, I know what you're asking because the smoking gun asked the same questions. Why did Amanda McCormick think a church would give her a million bucks? Because the Bible is full of miracles that if I tried to tell you happened to me now, you would you would say to me, excuse me, Mr. Please, do you spell your first name nigga with a hard E.R.

R.G.A. So if she was praying for a blessing and that came in the mail, the question should be why not? Why not? OK, why should she not believe the church sent this money? Well, Uncle Charlotte, maybe because the United States doesn't produce one million dollar bills. Nonsense.

We print money whenever we want to with all these trillions going around. There has to be $1 million bills because it makes it easier to count the trillions. Okay, Amanda. Okay. Well, here's the important question. In fact, the most important question. You thought the church really sent you a million dollars. You thought America actually prints out million dollar bills. But Amanda, did you think that the dollar general, the dollar general, the one dollar general would have changed for a million dollar bill? Your honor, I rest my case. Please give Amanda McCormick the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh, no, you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw.

Yee-haw. Mm-hmm. What? What? You want to play a game? Oh, God. Okay. All right.

If you really want to. It game? Oh, God. Okay. All right. If you really want to. It's Friday, damn it. Well, I guess we'll play a game of Guess What Race It Is. All right. Amanda McCormick from Tennessee got a million-dollar bill from a church in the mail. Decided to go to Dollar General to ball out DJ Envy. Guess what race she is? I'm going with white.

Explain why. McCormick last name and the fact that they didn't get arrested makes me feel white. Okay, okay, okay. I can see why you would say that. Angela Yee, Amanda McCormick, Tennessee received a million dollar bill in the mail from the church Okay, okay, okay. I can see why you would say that. Angela Yee, Amanda McCormick, Tennessee,

received a million-dollar bill in the mail from the church, decided to go to Dollar General and ball out. Guess what race she is? I'm going to say Caucasian because I would have went to Louis Vuitton. Shake it off, shake it off. Just like a nigga. Geesh. Both of a nigga. Deesh. Both of you are absolutely positively correct. Yes!

That mayonnaise was heavy and donkey of the day this morning. Amanda McCormick was indeed a white woman. Too much goddamn mayonnaise. I knew it. I'm good at this game. I would have been right on line at Louis Vuitton. With that million dollar bill? You know it. They would have locked your ass up too. You would have definitely been in handcuffs. I'd have been right online at Louis Vuitton. With that million dollar bill?

They'd have locked your ass up too. They'd definitely been in handcuffs. I need some new luggage. The not getting arrested was the biggest clue. Absolutely. All right. Well, thank you for that dog. And some ready to wear, because I can never afford their ready to wear at Louis Vuitton. It's too expensive.

But with a million dollars? You'd have wore that right to jail. All right. When we come back, we have Latham Thomas. I'd have bought you something. She's been here before. And Lisa Price. She is the owner of Carol's Daughter.

So we're going to be talking to both of them when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. 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. 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 the First, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't Iana tribe own 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 warheads. Oh, my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullet holes. 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. 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.

guy we are the breakfast club we got some special guests joining us this morning. Yes, indeed. We have Latham Thomas, who's been up here before. Welcome back. Thanks for having me. And we have Lisa Price. Welcome. Thank you.

Founder of Carol's Daughter. Yes. Welcome, welcome, welcome, ladies. First, I have to ask, I have two young girls, and your hair looks amazing. And trying to keep the curls in my daughter's hair is like my wife says we got to retrain it. I don't know what she's saying. Before we leave, please tell me what you use to make those curls stay.

Okay. So what is in my hair today is our Goddess Strength line. It is amazing for helping to strengthen the hair and specifically for the curl definition i'm using the goddess strength divine strength leave-in cream uh so that that's what's in this today and it i mean i know i make it and i'm supposed to say that it's great but i make it and it's great clearly it is you your best. Absolutely. I know too much about curly hair. My kids have it. We have to retrain it, and we have to do this.

And in the morning when it falls, I'm like, I have no idea. All I know is my wife says, do not get it wet. Just let it go. Yes, yes. Yeah, so I know how to put a shower cap on and everything. It's actually my mom's favorite products are Carol's Daughters. So I always, when y'all send me the emails for the sales, I always stock up and send her all of the Manoi oil oh thank you thank you and i got in the the goddess

hair oil so my hair smells good too no the room smells amazing right now by the way what would you suggest for charlemagne's hair if you know what would you suggest for envy's beard because it's dyed right he actually has grays like I do, but he puts all that black stuff on it. Do you recommend that for your skin? Oh, my goodness. Yes, thank you. Oh, my goodness.

We don't, right? And Latham, I want to thank you. You sent me this amazing box for International Women's Day, and one of the things we got to put y'all up on is this Foria oil, which I really love. It's an intimacy arousal oil. So just putting that out there. Hey.

And we're here today to talk about a number of things, but the black maternal health crisis. Yes. As always. I hate that we keep having to have this conversation, but clearly things aren't changing. Yeah. I mean, we're still at a place where we're a critical mass

and the crisis in the United States is that we're in the most dangerous country in the developed world to give birth. Black women are still three to four times more likely than white women to die during childbirth due to childbirth related causes. And right now, since we're waiting for policy changes, we have an incredible Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act that was presented to Congress. Cory Booker is one of the leads on pushing that through. We've had convenings even this week during Black Maternal Health Week around, you know, like a conversation, you know, even at the White House level, Kamala Harris just led a conversation

like this. And so there's, there's so much being talked about. But really, what we're here to talk about today is what we're doing, what people can do, how we can have self determination in our communities, and and strive to make a difference starting today. And we can all advocate, we can all be folks who are striving towards change. You know, the systems are broken and they're not designed to actually support us. So we need to figure out how to design new systems and new spaces to support ourselves. So now what is the main problem that you say? You know, a woman gets pregnant, she goes to the doctor, she gets tested to take a blood test. So what is next? What should women be doing to make sure that we don't have these problems? So structurally, right, we're looking, and I think

Lisa can speak to this from her own experience as well, right? Because we both have children who are older now, so we can look at this from a greater time horizon and not be looking at it from, you know, having younger children, but seeing over the years, our own experiences, and also what we see today is there's systemic racism is a huge issue like people like to say like oh well were they eating were they going to their doctor's appointments where we the research shows that people do go to their doctor's appointments but they feel dismissed they're not being heard and not being listened to their pain is dismissed we're seen as being impervious to pain right and so we're usually underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed and

undertreated right and so living in a time like covid where people have comorbidities that may show up, by the way, and rear their heads while you're not getting adequate care because the care is telehealth, for instance, then guess what happens? Things that could be treated during a pregnancy can become lethal at the end if they're, you know, especially if they're things that, you know, could really impact your health, right, or the baby's health. And so one thing is, you know, having consistency in providers, which is really important, access to really good and fair medical insurance. We need to have safe, affordable care, you know, throughout pregnancy and the entire reproductive continuum, because things happen outside of pregnancy, as we know, that impact health, right? Like choices come up and everything is on an as-need basis, right? But I think it's really important to have education.

And that's one of the things we're really excited to talk about today, because a lot of people have confusion around what choice really looks like in maternal health. So if you have a doula who's working with you throughout your pregnancy, your doula gives you questions to ask when you go for the checkup. that, oh, black and brown people are of lower socioeconomic status, different level of education, different, you know, salaries, so forth. Maybe they have insurance or not. And it's all tied around access and poverty. And it has nothing to do with it. You can be affluent, six figures, great hospital, great doctor, and still die.

Because they're just not listening to you. I was also, you know, noticing when you go to great hospital, great doctor, and still die because they're just not listening to you. I was also, you know, noticing when you go to the hospital, a lot of times they do things by protocol, right? It's not person from person, a patient, a patient, right? I'm just thinking, even with my, I have five kids, but my last child, my wife went to the hospital and they said, how many centimeters? They check, okay, you should go back home. And my wife was like, no, not on the fifth. This doesn't feel like going back home. And my wife was like, no, not on the fifth. This doesn't feel like going back home. I'm staying here.

And it was a big thing. And thank God she did, because we almost had a complication. But I think it's everything is to protocol. Yeah, we have to change that. Yeah, I think this is why, you know, intuition is really important. Right. Because she felt and you felt like something like this doesn't feel right. We're going to, you know, make an executive decision here for our care. It's really important to be able to speak up and that's actually advocating an action, right? And so part of that looks like having informed consent, you know, when prior to a

medical treatment or procedure taking place, you need to be told at every single juncture what is happening. And so just because you had an experience and the baby turned out healthy doesn't invalidate the pain that it took or that it caused or the complications that you endured. All right, we have more with Latham Thomas and Lisa Price. When we come back, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with founder of Carol's Daughter, Lisa Price, and doula Latham Thomas. This is Black Maternal Health Week. Now, Charlamagne. You definitely explained what doulas do, but what are the benefits? So there's so many benefits. From a clinical. You know, we actually have studies that show that, you know, the presence of a doula can decrease the use of pain. Medication can increase the bad. The instances of vaginal birth can decrease C-sections by like 28 percent. Latham did that for my wife. Yes. Yes. Yes. She had an incredible birth. Can can also help to increase breastfeeding, maternal satisfaction, bonding.

All of these things are possible. But but the one of the things that I think is really important and it's critical is to decrease C-sections and increase vaginal deliveries, because what people don't understand, like how you're, how you're born matters and all births, I mean, C-sections are sacred, you know, all births are sacred because, you know, how you get here is how you're meant to be here. But we also honor all types of birth outcomes and all types of feeding. Right. And so it's about being nonjudgmental and being able to provide people with the tools they need to like move through that process. And what happens during that time? Like, do you change doctors? Cause this doctor is telling you, you have to have a C-section, right? And you're saying no.

So now do you change the doctor? My wife didn't change the doctor. No? I think it depends on whether or not you can arrive at an understanding. So there are times when people do change doctors, and sometimes you can't because of insurance. But it's just having the doula there, you have that pause to ask another question. So, for example, if the doctor doesn't feel that the labor is progressing, it's very common to give women Pitocin to increase the contraction.

But then the Pitocin is something artificial that's being introduced. Now, I'm sure there are times when medically it is needed, but it is prescribed way too frequently, way too quickly. A doula would say, you know what, let me walk with mom and I'm going to take mom up and down the hall for a bit. And we're going to see if we can get this going on our own. So can we hold off on the Pitocin maybe? And then mom and doula go walking up and down the hall and maybe things progress and they don't have to go to that route.

If there's no doula there, if you don't know, you don't know that you can ask that question, then you get Pitocin. Now your contractions are not only horrible, they have no rhythm. With Pitocin, it's like 10 seconds. Here's another one. 15 seconds. Oh, there's another. And you don't have the rhythm anymore. So now you feel even less control because now I can't even control my pain. And then you get defeated. And then when somebody starts talking about a C-section,

you're like, you know what? That might be a good idea. Because I'm tired. Being a new parent, your first time, you have no clue. Like you said, and you have nobody to talk to. That's why I'm a doula. I wish we had had a doula the first time. I just remember the doctor when we were delivering and we had five kids and this was the first baby. I don't know what it's called, but they have to slice with the knife.

Oh, gosh. And my wife was so mad after. I don't know what it's called, but they have to slice with the knife. Oh gosh, the episiotomy? And my wife was so mad after. But I'm there, you know, looking. I don't know what to say. I don't know the questions to ask. And my wife was like, the doctor didn't have to do that, you know? I had four other children and didn't have to do that. But they were so in a rush probably because they had so many

other deliveries. And if whoever invented that procedure had to sit when they urinated, it wouldn't exist. They said it burns like a mother. that procedure had to sit when they urinated my wife it wouldn't exist they said it burns like a mother it's making me hurt just now so it's a cut into the erectile tissue between the vaginal opening and the anus right and so uh so to create more ease for a baby to be delivered, a doctor might make that cut. It has to be medically necessary. There are so few reasons to do this cut.

And the baby was five pounds, six ounces. So there was no reason for that cut. But I didn't know. You don't know as a father. You just, all right. But I mean, a lot of things that we see that we accept as normal. So like somebody laboring on their back right so if you're on your back then your hips are closed if you're squatting

your pelvis is 30 more open so why would you not just get upright and squat and use gravity to bring your baby down and to like not have any tearing right but there's never a reason to cut into that tissue i can say this so clearly too for people who get episiotomies, that erectile tissue, like it, it has to heal. And when, when you're having, when you're having intercourse, that tissue actually engorges and it makes it really uncomfortable. So a lot of people for years, sex is uncomfortable for them because of that cut. I was going to ask, you know, when, when me and my wife first started having kids, they said 35 was the age after 35. It's, it's, you know, you have to be careful. And it went up to 40. Then they said, 40 is the age. You got to be careful after 40,

trying to have kids. Is there an age limit of when it's necessary, the way you can't have kids and say, well, you got to be extra, extra careful. Or is it one of those things where you can go around things for women that are a little older i'll share a little bit on that what i would like to say first is biological age and chronological age do not run concurrently which means that like my however many years i've been on this planet does not necessarily correlate with like my biological age, which will show how I metabolize stress, like how I, what I may eat, where I live environmentally, like there's a lot of impact on our bodies, right? And it's, it's different for everybody. So this idea that at 35, that every

single person across the globe had ovaries start to act crazy uterus is falling out organs are prolapsing like this is not the case now everybody is different but like i think there's a perpetuation of of this idea of aging that is uncomfortable for people because we do not respect people in that become ancient in this culture we don't we throw we throw people out with age. Right. And so it's a mechanism also for control too. So I think part of it is that like we have to, you know, there's regenerative practices, there's foods, there's herbs, there's all kinds of things that we can do. But yes, there is science and yes, like eggs do age. We're born with all the eggs we'll ever have. And actually when we're in fetal development, those eggs are also being developed and shedding. But I think the point is, is like, you know, preserving your, your health and wellbeing is something that we should show up to every single

day. We should show up to the office of health and wellbeing, right? Like that's, that's lifestyle, right? And so I just, I, I don't like that people's try use science to make completely, to help people determine and usually rule themselves out of possibilities for life choices or life decisions based on what one doctor said, right? Right. Well, thank God for love delivered then because y'all going to ease a lot of people's pain. Right. And is it also too that as you get older that there's more of a chance that she'll naturally have twins yeah well yeah they say that um yeah after 35 37 um you know especially for black women yeah the statistics increase for

for twin like spontaneous twin um pregnancies yeah god like let me give you a couple since you did this one last time. Let me give you two. Latham Thomas, Lisa Price, thank you for joining us so much. Thank you. Is it lovedelivered.com? Carolsdaughter.com. Carolsdaughter.com.

Somebody else you just named. Scar. Scar, definitely big Scar. All right, and of course, you know, keep on checking for these new music updates. I wish I had an hour to talk about everything

that's out today because people will be like, you missed this, you missed that. But, you know, unfortunately, can't get into everything. Now, you know, we love talking about investments on this show. And NBA stars Carmelo Anthony and John Wall have put some money into a cannabis brand now. So it might be something worth people looking at, as we saw what just happened with Coinbase.

So if you're looking to put your money into an industry that has high growth in more ways than one, they're saying cannabis might be the ticket with all these states legalizing the use of recreational marijuana. And John Wall and Carmelo Anthony are now investors in L-E-U-N-E. I don't know the right pronunciation. It sounds like Loon, Loon. It's a California-based marijuana company. So according to CNBC,

they reported that they have joined NBA agent Rich Paul, also Lala Anthony, and music manager Anthony Saleh. You know, him and Nas have their company together and a new round of funding to help that company raise $5 million. Just putting that out there. And in the NBA, Lamar Odom, he was talking about one of his last conversations with Kobe Bryant

and how Kobe Bryant offered to help him with his debt. He was on the All the Smoke podcast. And here's what he said. I had been gambling and it had kind of got like a little too steep. And if you're in a bad situation, especially about some money, he ain't the one that you're going to want to call. I was like, have it up to strength. I put my pride to the side. He was like, you know, after he went in.

He went in on you first? Yeah. He was just like, how are your people? Call my people and we'll figure it out. Kobe better than me. What do you mean? You lose your money gambling? Gambling?

You got to eat that. You got to, you know, when you make a phone call to me for something like that, it got to be life and death. It got to be, you know, you backed up on some medical bills or you about to lose your house or something. Gambling? No. Yeah, but Kobe's in a different tax bracket than you are and his relationship with I'm sure Lamar

was a lot greater. But I'm with you. What do I got to do? Shut the hell up! How you gonna sit there and judge me and then tell me you with me? Shut up! I don't wanna hear from you no more. I thought about it. I'm like, nah, B, you gambled. Nah. This nigga just shamed me. I ain't in the same tax bracket as Kobe. I thought about it. I'm like, nah, B, you gamble. Nigga, this nigga is shaming me. I ain't in the same tag bracket as Kobe. You know what I mean?

But as I was speaking, I thought about it. You gambling? You gambling? You got money to gamble? No, sorry. And then you call me? Gambling is an addiction, though. We've seen that before.

It's a sickness. It's an addiction. What do I got to do with anything? And it could trigger his other addictions. I don't want to hear that. He may have wanted to try to help him No, I don't want to hear that. He may have wanted to try to help him. He said, we'll figure it out. So maybe it was conditional.

Maybe it was go to rehab and I'll help you. Who knows? Unless you're in a situation like Alonzo in training day where the Russians are going to kill you at a certain time. If you ain't calling me, telling me nothing like that, I'm not helping you with getting out of your gambling debt. You got to figure that out on your own. No, because what are they going to try to do? They're going to try to, after I pay it off,

you're going to re-gamble and try to back up? Exactly. No. Not gambling. No, you're on your own with that one, King. Love you, though. That is your rumor report. Love you.

Love you, brother, but you got to wear that debt. Yeah, I ain't messing with that. I thought about it. Nope, nope, nope, nope. All right. Revolt, we'll see you guys on Monday. Everybody else, the People's Choice Mix is up next. Let's go.

The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Bumpy's back. Oscar winner Forrest Whitaker returns as crime boss Bumpy Johnson in the acclaimed epic series Godfather of Harlem. Returns April 18th only on Epyx. Get the channel or the app. Morning, everybody, it's DJ

Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy, we are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the line, Carrie O'Horn. Thank you for having me again. Thank you, Charlamagne. No, man, it's a pleasure, especially being that we hear talking some really, really, really good news. First of all,

we gotta tell them Carrie O'Horn's story. She's a former Buffalo police officer who back in the day, she stopped a fellow cop's chokehold on a suspect. Correct. Which they terminated you for, right? Am I explaining that correctly?

Well, he doesn't like to be called a suspect. His name is Neal Mack. All of his charges were dropped. I'm sorry, Neal. Yes. Yes. But they fired you for that. Yeah. For doing sorry, Neil. Yes. Yes. But they fired you for that. Yeah.

For doing the right thing. They made up a story that I jumped on the officer's back, which was impossible because there was a suspect between us and we were face to face. They basically said that I just went there and just was out of control. And they took your pension away. You were fired and you had to fight and fight and fight and damn near sued to get everything back. So what happened now? Where are we at now? So then in September, the council passed Cario's Law, which is the duty to intervene. It was a law that I wrote in 2016, and I just did not know how to get it passed.

So Terry Watson, the founder of Strategies for Justice, he helped along with my team. They helped me get that passed. And it actually was an effort with protesters and everybody, everybody chipped in to help get that law passed. Then the mayor signed it like a month later. And then yesterday, the judge ruled for me because we filed a lawsuit. The attorneys, I have awesome attorneys also. They filed the lawsuit and yesterday the judge came back with a decision and to give me my pension. Hey, that's right. Overthrowing the firing. And so I'm pension eligible. That's, that's the term i'm supposed to use

pension eligible i want to revisit though back then because what we're seeing right now while we're watching this derek chauvin case right and what's happening with him is how many people that were witnesses wish they could have intervened or done something to stop derek chauvin from killing george floyd and you actually did intervene so can you tell us what was going on in your mind at that time? There was a a man named Mark Virginia who was killed by Buffalo police and that's what I thought of when I saw him choking Neil Mack. I thought of Mark Virginia where there are other officers there and nobody stopped the chokehold to save his life. So that's actually what I thought of. And so, you know, I yelled to him, Greg, you're choking him.

And then when he didn't stop, that's when I decided to step in, grab his arm, and that's all I did, was grab his arm from around his neck. But then by the time they finished with the story, he said I did a whole thing. It doesn't matter. You're a hero you did exactly what we would want any police

officer to do in that situation and you know what didn't that same police officer end up getting going to jail for something else after that he did he choked another officer on duty and then he banged the heads of four teens on a police car that he was arresting

and one of the teens was shot with a bb gun also in the george floyd case we saw that no officer did anything that's right that's the purpose of cario's law it's the cario's law duty to intervene because then it's a law that you have to intervene but we need to make it a national law because it makes no sense to just have it here in this city where an officer here can move to another city and get on that department. We actually needed a federal law. So it's great that it started here, but it needs to be a federal law. And you can go to KaryosLaw.com and get all the information to jump on board for that. You have to have a law in place for officers to do what they say they're they're they're supposed to do, which is protect themselves.

Yeah. So I didn't want any other officer to go through what I had gone through for doing the right thing. So I tried to figure out what a solution would be because you hear the problems all the time. So I wanted a solution and what will force the officers to do it. Because if you don't force them, a lot of them are still not going to do it because they don't want to cross over that blue line. So that's why I thought of the law. So now that we have the law and they have to do it, then it's important to get it passed throughout the country. And my attorneys are on. I see you, attorney. I see you. I see him. I saw when he popped up with the bow tie and that Law of America book behind him. I said, well, that's the attorney right there. Now, we were asking

earlier, Ron, about, you know, what happens now? Does she get a pension back? We were talking back pay. And is she an officer now? So can you break it down what exactly it is? Actually, what what happened with this ruling is she was reinstated until the date that she was fired. Basically, they put everything back as though it were, you know, 14 years ago. So she gets back pay for those two years and that brings her up to 20 years of service which makes her pension eligible so we've got to do some stuff to do the paperwork for the pension but she's back to um where she was as though this ridiculous decision had not happened in the first place uh we have to talk about later you know what happens from 2010 to 2020 but that's a that's a separate conversation i was gonna say that let's say she didn't want to retire.

She should still be being paid for right now. Like, she's a cop. She should be paid for it right now. Much more difficult question, but I hear you. We're going to deal with that. Now, Ms. Horne, they're saying, you know, I'm reading the headlines

and they're saying that, you know, you've been vindicated. Do you feel vindicated? Do you feel like this is justice? To a certain point, yes. I think that the attorneys did an awesome job. They really did an awesome job. I really didn't understand how he was working,

but he was like, trust me on this, Ron. He said, trust me on this. And I was like, okay. Like, you know, I've been trying to fight it all of these years and I didn't get anywhere, so I have to trust me on this. And I was like, okay. Like, you know, I've been trying to fight it all of these years and I didn't get anywhere. So I have to trust them on this. And thank you, Ron. Thank you so much.

And Intisar, is Intisar going to say anything? Hey, Intisar, what is it? Intisar? Intisar. Intisar. Peace, Intisar. Peace to you. It was, I think this was justice a long time in coming,

and we're so happy that Cario has been vindicated now. Let me just add really quick, because Cario is a little too modest. She had opportunities years ago to get kind of minor settlements in this, but she refused to do it because of the broader issue, because of Cario's law. She said, it's not just about me. It's about a much, much broader issue. And that's a matter of principle. And that's one of the reasons that we took on this matter, because she is so principled. And you don't say that a lot. Most people are me, me, me, me, me. Cario was like, it's not just about me. Other officers all over the

country are facing this, and we've got to force them to be able to intervene when they see this kind of foolishness going on. So she just, you know, she stood firm. It was homeless and everything, but she stood firm. So thank you, Cario.

No, Ron, you're absolutely right, because every single time Ms. Horn reaches out to me, it's never about her pension or anything going on with her. It's always about Cariel's Law. This is happening for Cariel's Law. This march is for Cariel's Law. This is for Cariel's Law. So you're absolutely right. It's not

a self-serving thing at all. Much love, Cariel. You guys are a blessing. Thank you so much. Thank you. All right, again, and thank you to Cariel Horn for joining us. And I'm so glad that they gave her

her pension back, man. I'm glad they gave her her pension back, too. She was supposed to be on CNN this morning, but they canceled the interview because of breaking news. But she'll be on TMZ later, man.

I love Cariel Horn, and I think that her story needs to get out there a lot more. But also, Cariel's law needsiel Horn, and I think that her story needs to get out there a lot more. But also, Cariel's law needs to be federal because I do think it's a crime if you're a police officer and you don't intervene when another police

officer is failing to do their job of protecting and serving. So, salute to Cariel Horn. And also, I'm going to be out in Arizona this weekend, Saturday Night Live, so anybody out in Phoenix, Arizona, come hang out with your boy. Now you got a positive note? I do, man.

And I want to tell everybody, too, make sure you go get Tameka Mallory, State of Emergency, How to Win in the Country We Built. It's available for pre-order right now, but it comes out May 11th. We got the advanced copies in. It makes me feel good to see different people hitting me up, telling me how much they're enjoying the book and loving to see the early reviews. So make sure you go pre-order Tamika D. Mallory's State of Emergency

How to Win in the Country We Built. It's out May 11th, but it's available for pre-order now on Black Privilege Publishing. Okay? Now, the positive note is simply this. As you heal, your attractions change too. Alright? Toxicity stops looking like excitement

and peace stops feeling like boredom. Have a great weekend. 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. This is mine.

I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Or maybe not. No country willingly gives up their territory. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets.
