You can absolutely start your weekend now. Life is all about perspective. So to me, the weekend starts now. Drop on the Clues for Thursday. That means we're not coming to work tomorrow? What you mean? We still got to work tomorrow. The night is the weekend. No, we got to go to work tomorrow. I'm working on the weekend too, I feel like. Don't mess up my perspective.

If you don't want it to be the weekend, you don't have to let it be the weekend. It's the weekend for me. So you're identifying as the weekend. I am to be the weekend, you don't have to let it be the weekend. It's the weekend for me, Dan. Okay, so you're identifying as the weekend. I am identifying as the weekend. Today is Trans Friday. Trans weekend starts now. Okay?

All right. Yes. Whatever you say. That's right. All right, well, I want to shout out to Greenwood Bank and to The Gathering Spot. I hosted a conversation for them

on Twitter Space yesterday. They were talking about Greenwood Bank acquiring The Gathering Spot, two black-owned businesses coming together to help create generational wealth. Yes, so it was a great conversation, so shout out to them and everybody who was listening. Okay.

And also, today, Mr. Wonderful will be joining us this morning. Tell them who Mr. Wonderful is, because that could be a wrestler, a porn star, or what? Kevin O'Leary. You probably know him from Shark Tank. Oh, I was way off. Yeah, he's the gentleman that is probably the meanest on Shark Tank and tries to get the worst deals a lot of the times. The deals always benefit

him, but that's how, you know. Oh, worst deals for the other people. Yeah, for the other people. Yeah, he's a shrewd businessman, as they would say, but he's going to be joining us this morning. We're going to be talking about Shark Tank and some of the things that he's working on. So we're going to be chopping it up with him in a little bit. Let's get the show cracking.

Front page news, what we start with. All right, well, let's start with Nike versus StockX. All right, we'll get into it. Not the Senate shooting down Roe versus Wade. No. We had that this morning. Don't worry, that's the next hour. Nike versus StockX is more important.

Is it? No, I'm just joking. We have two front page news breaks, guys. All right, what's the Breakfast Club? Good morning.'m just joking. We have two front-page news breaks, guys. All right. What's the Breakfast Club? Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front-page news.

All right. Yesterday, did you watch the game, Charlemagne? I watched the Bucs and the Celtics. Phenomenal, phenomenal game. It shows you why defense wins championships. Dropping the clues bonds for the Milwaukee Bucs. Drew Holiday at the end of that game was phenomenal. That's right.

On defense. I can't remember a defensive sequence like that in a long time. Bucks beat the Celtics 110-107. Oh, that's phenomenal. The Grizzlies, without Ja, killed the Warriors last night, 134-95. Yeah, I went to sleep watching that. Yeah, I went to sleep on that game. It looked like it was going that way.

Yeah, it was getting nasty. It's weird, though. I mean, that's almost one of those times where somebody comes in way too comfortable. They can't be too comfortable with the last game that Ja didn't play. Yeah. I mean, they ended up winning, barely winning, but. Yeah, Curry had 14. Thompson had 19.

Green only had five. And Poole only had three points. All right. What else we got, Yeezy? All right. Well, Chris Paul's mom, Robin, has told what happened to Kenny Smith inside the NBA and talked about the fan allegedly harassing her and getting physical with her during the Mavericks' win, 111-101.

And here is what Kenny Smith said happened. She was very adamant about what happened. She was like, no, Kenny, the guy was in the area, and he was trying to be funny by continually tapping me saying happy Mother's Day And she said well, thank you But don't touch me and he continued to do that and then at the end in between Would scream out obscenities about the Suns and the Suns at the Suns and continue to tap us. So that's when it escalated To that magnitude because I think then Jaden, Chris's wife, tried to go up to tell Steve the security and the bar not to serve him anymore because he was inebriated.

I thought it was the teenager kid. It wasn't a teen that everybody thought it was, the 16-year-old kid? Well, there were two unruly fans. Yeah, I guess not if they were drinking. Drinking, right. Right. And so that person was removed by security during the game. And on Monday, the Mavericks said in a statement,

two unruly fans had been banned until 2023. So they said that behavior is unacceptable. They need more than that. They need to get arrested. Like, banning them don't mean anything. And how do they know who's banned or not? They can still purchase tickets off StubHub and then go to the game and nobody know who they are.

No, that's a hell of an offense. If you are a fan of a team and you get banned from the arena. But how are you really banned? What do you mean? They ban you. I could buy a ticket and just walk right in. No, I think they put your name on a list or something. Yeah, but they.

They put your face at the front door and say. We're on security everywhere. 20,000 people walking into the game. You think they can see you banned? Hell no. Yeah, I think they can. Hell no. Absolutely.

No. If your dad goes to a game. And somebody at the game will tell on you. He a Vander who's not? Hell no. Yeah, I think they can. Hell no. Absolutely. No. If your dad goes to a game. And somebody at the game will tell on you. He's banned. I know he's banned. If your dad goes to a Jets game, he wears a hat on and goes, well, nobody's going to know it's him. Then there's no way.

You think out of 20,000 people that they see weekly, they're going to remember your dad's face? I don't think he's welcome anywhere except for AT&T State. All right. Now, the general manager of the Nets, Sean Marks, was speaking out about Kyrie Irving's future with the Nets, and here's what he had to say. It's honestly not just Kyrie.

I mean, you bring Kyrie up, but we have decisions to make on a variety of different free agents throughout our roster. We haven't had any of those discussions yet, so it would be unfair for me to comment on how it looks with us and Kyrie, because to be quite frank, he has some decisions to make on his own. So he has to look at what he's going to do with his player option and so forth like that. But I think we know what we're looking for.

You know, we're looking for guys that want to come in here, be part of something bigger than themselves, play selfless, play team basketball, and be available. And that goes not only for Kyrie, but for everybody here. He's basically talking to Kyrie. He's saying Kyrie is selfish, and he's saying Kyrie thinks it's all about him. That's basically what he said. Yeah, but will another team invest and gamble with Kyrie?

I don't know. Like Stephen A. Smith said, he would never sign Kyrie to a long-term deal. He said he would do it on a year-by-year basis. All right, now Nike versus StockX. Now Nike is complaining it has a filing against StockX, and the most damning of these statements includes Nike's claim that they purchased four counterfeit pairs of purported Nikes through StockX between December of last year and January of this year.

You know, they're supposed to authenticate the sneakers. Now StockX has responded and said, We take customer protection extremely seriously, and we've invested millions to fight the proliferation of counterfeit products that virtually every global marketplace faces today. Nike's latest filing is not only baseless, but also is curious, given that their own brand protection team has communicated confidence in our authentication process and that hundreds of Nike employees, including current senior executives, use StockX to buy and sell products. Yeah, which is real weird. I know you've been to StockX before. I've been there as well.

They took us through the whole authentication process. Yeah, they usually hire people that used to work at these brands. So like, you know, they sell handbags. They sell watches there now. They also sell sneakers. So they usually hire people that used to work at Nike and work for Adidas or work for these places to see if those sneakers are real or not. So I know StockX. It's like anything else.

They will be fixed. They get through. But they really have a program to really try to stop that. They don't play with it. You know, StockX says they use over 100 data points and that their authenticators are better equipped than anyone to verify a shoe's legitimacy. To the point where they start with the smell of the sneaker. Like, they could smell a sneaker and see if the leather is real or where the leather came from. They get

busy over there at StockX. I'm not saying that because I get endorsed because I'm not endorsing them, but we went through the process to actually see and we tried. I think we even tried. We were trying to figure out a fake sneaker. I got it right. You got it right too. Yeah, we both got it right. But they smell it to see. Alright, I didn't smell them, but

that is your front page news. All right. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. 800-585-1051. I just bought something from StockX, too. Now I'm going to double and triple check.

Damn it, man. All right. We should be here in a couple days. All right. 800-585-1051. Get it off your chest. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection. It was literally that step by step.

And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.

Hey, I wanted you guys to play the song Moonlight by Jay-Z from Sound444. Love that record. Yeah, I think that's the reason so much is going on with these rappers getting locked up and all that and seeing how Wallo was speaking to Young Thug about how he should keep his head cool while he's up on top or anything.

So I think Moonlight is a good song to listen to for everybody. Jay-Z got, what song was that? You got hit with the Rico. It was all good just a week ago. What song was that? I don't remember. That wasn't the one with Too Short? It was all good just a week ago?

If you need to vent, you can hit us up. Now, we got rumors on the way here. Yes, and let's talk about Regina King. You know, ever since her son passed, people have not seen her, but now we've actually seen a picture of her and we'll tell you who posted it and what the caption was.

All right, we'll get into that next. It the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get to the rumors let's talk regina king it's about time what's going on Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. All right. Well, Regina King's cousin posted a picture of her, and he also captioned it, Seeing Cuzzle Smile made today complete and continue to pray for the mothers who are living without their children. As you know, Regina King's son, her only son, her only child, Ian Alexander Jr., took his own life on Saturday, January 22nd. He was only 26 years old.

She has been out of the public eye ever since that happened. She did release a statement in January. Our family is devastated at the deepest level by the loss of Ian. He is such a bright light who cares so deeply about the happiness of others. Our family asked for a respectful consideration during this private time. Thank you. And so there was not much said since then other than Vivica Fox on Cocktails with Queens revealing a text message that Regina wanted people to see.

And that's it, you know, that she was doing okay. So it's nice that he was able to post a picture of the two of them on FaceTime with her smiling. Sending healing energy to Regina King always. Absolutely. All right. Now, PETA is mad at Sierra and at Russell Wilson. For what? Well, they got a new puppy for Mother's Day.

But PETA is saying that they clearly bought that puppy from a breeder and did not rescue a dog from a shelter instead. Oh, come on, PETA. Knock it off. The couple's new dog, Bronco, is a purebred and likely from a breeder, they said, where mother dogs are often locked inside filthy cages and bred over and over until their bodies give out. And they said PETA is calling on the couple to level up on kindness by adopting a companion for this pup instead of fueling the homeless animal crisis. You know how much that dog probably cost that they bought? A lot. Exactly.

Come on, Ingrid and everybody at PETA. Knock it off. It's not about how much it costs. Exactly. The dog got a home. All right? They don't like the conditions where dogs are bred. Well, the dog's in better conditions now.

Ingrid and PETA. Who's Ingrid? Ingrid is the president of Peter. They harass. They send me stuff all the time. They send me stuff up here all the time. Like what? Oh, I don't. Ingrid's always sending me books and magazines and cards and she sent me a wallet, which I didn't understand. Leather?

It's made out of leather. It's made out of leather? It's a clan wallet. Ingrid. But salute to Peter. Drop on the clues box for Peter. I like Ingrid. I'm the one that booked her to come to close bonds with Peter I have no problem with what Peter you should send it back and so you can accept it because the leather is you know yes but you sure it's leather I don't know but Peter's ridiculous okay and they you know and they didn't want us to use animal terms like you can't call somebody a chicken you can't say bullpen what baseball

stop it that's ridiculous come on I guess I can't say bull you know you can't say bullpen in baseball. That's ridiculous. Come on. I guess I can't say bull, you know? You can't. Come on. All right. Young Thug is facing seven additional felony charges following the police raid at his Atlanta home. Goodness gracious. They raided his home in Buckhead.

And in addition to RICO and participation in criminal street gang activity counts, he was hit with during his arrest on Monday. Now he has seven new felony charges. That includes possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute, possession of firearm during commission of a felony, possession of sawed-off shotgun, sawed-off rifle, machine gun,

dangerous weapon or silencer, and three charges of unlawful participation in criminal gang activity while employed by associated with a criminal street gang. Well, don't raid my house and you wouldn't find all this stuff. Don't raid my house. Give me an opportunity to turn myself in. All right.

Now, Young Thug's father recently did an interview with a local Atlanta news station. And here's what Jeffrey Williams Sr. had to say. I think my son has been unfairly linked to a lot of things. But, you know, it's up to us to prove it. He said he's going to fight for him until the end because I'm his father. Absolutely. All right. So in addition to that, Gunna has appeared in court as his lawyers are proclaiming that he's innocent. And they point out what a huge ally Gunna has been to Atlanta over the last few years. He created the first ever free in-school grocery and clothing store. He fed over 400

children weekly, hosted nationally sponsored giveaways for victims of disasters and food shortages. They did say in a statement to TMZ that the indictment falsely portrays his music as part of a criminal conspiracy and that Mr. Kitchens, his real name is Sergio Kitchens, has been

an advocate for his community and it is our privilege to advocate for him. Yeah, I don't even understand what they got Gunner connected to. I mean, YSL is a record label. So if I'm signed to YSL and I'm shouting out YSL and even if I'm throwing up a YSL sign, it's because of the record label. So what is what is what is even I don't even see what the charge Gunner's connected to. Is it a conspiracy to violate a recall? What does that even mean? I have no idea. All right. Now, Casanova has pleaded guilty in a federal racketeering case. He's been accused of having a leadership role in the untouchable Gorilla Stone Nation Bloods gang.

He pleaded guilty to one count of conspiring to conduct and participate in the conduct of the affairs of a criminal enterprise through a pattern of racketeering activity and another count of conspiring to distribute over 100 kilos of marijuana. So in addition, they said, according to reports, he admitted with his guilty plea to shooting at someone with whom he was having a gambling dispute at a party in Florida in July of 2020. And he admitted to participation in marijuana trafficking and a 2018 robbery. The maximum prison sentence for him for the two counts is 60 years with a mandatory minimum of five years in prison. And sentencing is scheduled to take place on December

6th. The moral of the story is do the right thing. Y'all can have these streets. And if the people around you don't want to grow and level up when you do, leave them. Leave them. Man. Alright, I saw he did thank Chris Brown also for sending him money, too, while he's been locked up.

That's good. I'm glad C-Breezy is doing that because I wonder about stuff like that because you see these guys and, you know, they be around everybody in the industry and partying and dancing and everything else. It's like when they're in these situations, are they still getting held down? All right, and Jeannie Mai spoke out yesterday on The Real about whether or not she is joining Real Housewives of Atlanta.

There were rumors that she was joining the cast. Here's what she had to say. I literally was over here just having a baby. And I'm hearing these rumors. I was like, how am I going to go from this into that? Because that's a full-time job. Girl, but you would make an excellent housewife. What is it that you think?

You can come on as my friend. Oh, we can make a housewife. I love you. I live for you. I think she would make an excellent. Thank you. is it? You can come on as my friend. Oh, you can. I love you. I live for you. Thank you. And I love you ladies too. I love all you ladies, but I know that's a complete rumor. I haven't talked to one person. My people haven't talked to one person from Bravo. So that was a complete rumor that got made up. I'm going to leave it to you guys. Is the door closed? The door is closed. It wasn't a door to begin with. It was a wall. All right, that was Kenya from Real Housewives of Atlanta with Jeannie Mai. So it's not happening.

And that is your rumor reports. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. Now, front page news, what are we talking about? We'll be talking about Joe Biden on the Senate vote on the Women's Health Protection Act. You know, the fundamental rights for women are at risk at the Supreme Court. And we'll tell you what happened. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will tell you what happened. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Angela Yee here from my friends at The General Insurance. Switch to The General and you could save over $500 on your car insurance.

WWPR FMHD 1 New York. And iHeart Radio Station. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Yesterday, the Bucs beat the Celtics 110-107. Fantastic game.

And the Grizzlies beat the Warriors 134-95. Blew them out. Just watch the last two minutes of that Bucs-Celtics game, man, if you ever want to see what real defense looks like and why defense wins championships. All right. Now let's talk about the Women's Health Protection Act. It had already passed the House, and then it was shot down at the Senate.

Here is what Kamala Harris had to say after the vote on protecting the right for women to choose. The majority of the American people believe in defending a woman's right, her choice to decide what happens to her own body. And this vote clearly suggests that the Senate is not where the majority of Americans are on this issue. It also makes clear that a priority for all who care about this issue, a priority should be to elect pro-choice leaders at the local, the state, and the federal level. Because what we are seeing around this country are extremist Republican leaders who are seeking to criminalize and punish women for making decisions about their own body.

All of that is true. But once again, President Joe mentioned the lone Democrat these women in that administration, they still won't use this opportunity to finally start calling out the person who is always stopping progress, President Joe Manchin. Well, not one Republican in Congress voted for this bill. And as you know, Joe Manchin is a lone Democrat who did also tank this. Here's what Joe Manchin had to say to reporters about voting against the Women's Health Protection Act. We're going to be voting on a piece of legislation which I will not vote for today. But I would vote for Roe v. Wade codification if it was today. I was hopeful for that. I found out yesterday in caucus that wasn't going to be.

And you probably heard about that by now. Now, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer already knew that this was going to get shot down. It was shot down 51 to 49. But they said this was largely symbolic, and he wanted to make sure that as the American people are watching, the public will not forget which side of the vote senators fall on today. Here's what he said on the Senate floor. Before the day is over, every member of this body will make a choice. Vote to protect the fundamental rights of women across the country or stand with five

conservative justices ready to destroy these rights in one felled swoop. For half a century, Roe v. Wade has been the bedrock upon which women have secured the freedom to make their own decisions when it comes to their bodies. A decision, if enacted, will go down as one of the worst court decisions ever. Republicans did what I expected them to do. But my question is, how come Democrats aren't doing what they are supposed to be doing? One man, one person has been consistent in blocking Biden's whole agenda, and now he won't even vote to protect abortion rights after claiming he supports abortion rights. Like if Democrats had a party line vote and all of them voted the same way, the tie-breaking vote would always go to VP Kamala Harris.

Anytime there's a 50-50 tie in the Senate, it goes to the VP. So all they have to do is what Republicans always do and vote the party line. I thought they needed 60 votes. For what? For this to pass in the Senate. Not in this, in the Senate, it's 50-50. I thought it was 60-40. For this, it's 50-50 in the Senate.

John Lewis Voting Rights Act, Freedom to Vote Act, Abortion Rights Act, Build Back Better, George Floyd Policing Act. How many things is President Manchin going to shoot down? All right. Now, to protect the right to choose, voters need to elect more pro-choice senators this November and return a pro-choice majority to the House. Joe Biden was tweeting about that

and he said the protections that the Women's Health Protection Act would ensure are essential to the health, safety and progress of our nation. While it did not pass today, my administration will not stop fighting to protect access to women's reproductive care. I just wish that Democrats would start calling out Joe Manchin. You know, we've been saying that for the last— I know. I know. That's what they got upset with me when I asked Vice President Kamala Harris, who's the real president of this country. But it's like when they don't call out Manchin, it makes me feel like they're all complicit.

And if they're all complicit, guess what's going to happen? Voters are going to hit the Democrats with Dorico come midterms. Okay, and Joe Manchin is the leader. He's going to get them all conspiracy charges. They're all going down because of him. My goodness. All right, well, that is your front page news. All right, now when we come back, Kevin O'Leary will be joining us.

You know him from Shark Tank. Mr. Wonderful. So we'll talk to him when we come back, Kevin O'Leary will be joining us. You know him from Shark Tank. Mr. Wonderful. So we'll talk to him when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. We have

Kevin O'Leary, a.k.a. Mr. Wonderful. Mr. Wonderful. Good morning. Good morning. Thank you. How are you feeling? You came up with your own camera setup, his own setup. You came prepared.

I don't mess around, man. Now, do you own any of these products? These are all Apple. I own the stock. Oh, you own the stock. You're very popular, man. All day long, people have been saying, Mr. Wonderful's coming up here. That's right.

I appreciate that. There's truth in advertising. That's right. I appreciate that. There's truth in advertising. So let's talk about Shark Tank. Now, you've been in Shark Tank for how long now? 14 seasons. We're all amazed by what this has turned into. It's fantastic. Do you still love it, and does it allow you to do your real job

or all the other things that you have to do? Well, it's turned into my real job. I mean, we've been investing in companies now, you know, dozens of them, if not 50, 60, 70 each. And some of them have been wildly successful. I mean, it is the American dream. That's what happens when you get a hit.

And here's what I've learned. You don't know what's going to work. You may think you do. That's right. But each season, the deals that I think are real dogs end up being huge hits and vice versa. You just don't know. So you need a portfolio.

You need to do 10, 12 deals hoping two or three really work out and pay for the mistakes. That's all you can hope to do, right? I mean, it's all a gamble at the end of the day. It is. It is. And it's remarkable to see, particularly during the pandemic, how these entrepreneurs pivoted, how they just had to chuck and jive to stay alive. I mean, it was really hard because they lost their retail distribution. And most of these companies are consumer goods and services. So if they don't

have any distribution, they go to zero and they figured out how to sell direct. They did, you know, something remarkable. They built businesses direct to consumer all around the world. And they started giving up retail because when you sell direct, your margins are much higher and you get all that information about your customer. Nike did the same thing during the pandemic. They went to 60% direct consumer around the world. So did the Shark Tank companies. You know what I wondered about people, certain entrepreneurs during COVID, certain people created COVID friendly businesses, things that work during the pandemic. But was those good long-term things to invest in? You know, that's a great question.

What we found out is that people believe in more than just profits today. If there's a mission behind your business, if it's doing something great, if it's providing for its community, you tend to get a very sticky customer. And if you're selling direct to them and you can communicate that mission, it outlasts just the pandemic. They feel like they're part of that community and they stay with you. That's what we learned. And so it's not just about making money anymore. That's okay. Profits are still cool, but that's how you stay in business and you hire people. But people want more. They want more. A company like Bluel blue land that took out

the plastic waste of cleaning fluids there's no bottle anymore it's just a tablet and people really got into that during the pandemic because they couldn't buy this stuff you remember for a while they'd shut down even walmart so if you needed a cleaning fluid you got it direct from blue land now they're selling 50 60 million a year direct to consumers that are into the mission of cleaning up the oceans. I saw one that you guys did that was a ring light because obviously people, even after the pandemic, ring lights got so popular during,

but now I feel like people are never going to stop using ring lights. That's right, and that ring light company made one with a little star in your eye, reflecting in your eye, and I have that thing back. It's so cool. You stick it in front of you, and when you're doing your selfies, there's two stars in your eyes, reflecting in your eye. And I have that thing back. Wow. It's so cool. You stick it in front of you. And when you're doing your selfies, there's two stars in your eyes. Cool idea.

Right. I was going to ask, what was the most successful company you invested in, in Shark Tank? In the history of the show, the biggest exit, it was one called Plated that was bought by Albertsons for $340 million. That was my deal. And there's about to be another one. It'll get announced in the next few weeks. It'll be the second largest That was my deal. And there's about to be another one that'll get announced the next few weeks. That'll be the second largest. Also my deal. So I'm getting very lucky with these

things because, and again, they're ones that I never thought. I mean, this one that's about to happen, I'd love to tell you about it today, but I can't because it's a public company that's buying it, was the stupidest thing I've ever seen. I mean, I couldn't believe what it was, and I did it because I thought it was great TV. But it turned into a monster business, a huge business. And bingo, it's being acquired, and that woman is going to be very, very wealthy. Now, you said the one you bought for $340,000.

What did you want? Million. Million. Million. Million. Million. Million. We can get in on this.

If you remember, there was a time when meal kits, people would ship an uncooked meal to your door, and then you'd cook the food. So it was proportion. That got really big, and that was one of the biggest companies played. It was bought by Albertson because they wanted a digital version to what they did in a grocery store.

Gotcha. And that was a huge deal, and that's when we began to realize that Shark Tank the real secret sauce of Shark Tank and why it works year in year out is the number one reason companies go out of business in America is they can never get their customer acquisition cost below the lifetime value a fancy way of saying they advertise themselves into bankruptcy they can't acquire customers now with Shark Tank you get a hundred million eyeballs through syndication. So if you even have a mediocre product, you're kicking it when you're on Shark Tank, but you got to get a deal. Everybody thinks you can come on

and not close a deal. Then you don't get updates. You don't get the benefit long-term. You never show up again. And I think that's kind of what people have figured out about it. If they can get on Shark Tank and get into syndication, they're going to be out there forever. Now, question. When they come on Shark Tank, let's say they don't get a deal. Does Shark Tank or do you guys still get some type of percentage if they do so? Because, I mean, you guys are still advertising them on the show. Yeah.

Very shrewd question. There was a time when that was happening. But in Season 3, we killed that because it stopped good companies from coming on board. If they weren't guaranteed a deal, why are they giving up equity? And so in season four, we changed that policy. And that's when we started getting real companies with real shareholders, with real venture capitals. And now we get all kinds of deals.

And the deal sizes are huge. They're millions of dollars now. It used to be 50 grand here, 100,000 there. Now it's two, three, four, five million bucks. Do you have any regrets when you look back at maybe talking to a business owner and being really harsh with them? Because sometimes people are so passionate

about their businesses, and then you can look back and say, damn, maybe I shouldn't have said it that way. They say you're the mean guy. No, I just tell the truth. And if you can't handle the truth, the real world's going to bite your hiney anyway. But sometimes it's wrong, right? No.

I'm never wrong. Look, you know, the point is I just tell it the way I see it. And I think that is important. I think it's very disingenuous. And I say this to Barbara all the time and Lori. You're not going to give these people a dime. And you're telling them to go on and keep doing what they're doing when you know

they're going to zero. So it's, why are you doing that? Why don't you tell them the truth? Your idea sucks. It's going to zero. You're going to go bankrupt unless you stop. Go do something else. But look, the girls from the lip bar were on. They're from Detroit.

And they were on the show. And their business has been pretty successful. And they're doing well. They're in Target. They're in all these stores. Yeah, they rub that on my face even on billboards. All the time. Yep, I saw the billboards in Detroit.

What's the billboard say? It says, Mr. Wonderful's wrong. Yeah, and I just saw those because they had their 10-year anniversary. But that's what I'm saying. Look, I'm proud of them for taking the heat. I'm proud that their entrepreneurs are successful. It's a wonderful thing to see that happen.

But they were facing an almost impossible task because going into the cosmetics industry is so difficult to get market share, but they pulled it off. So look, you gotta applaud them. There's no question about it. But that is a tough space because the margins are so high that the competition is brutal. It's just brutal.

Alright, we have more with Mr. Wonderful, aka Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank. So don't move. 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 Mr. O'Leary, Kevin O'Leary, Mr. Wonderful from Shark Tank. What are your thoughts on the fact that interest rates are shooting through the roof right now as far as mortgage rates, car loans, and bank loans right now, and inflation?

How does that affect what's going on in the next couple of years? Well, the two biggest moves in inflation are self-inflicted wounds. One is energy costs, $4, $5, $6 gallon of oil or of gas. We did that to ourselves. We shut down all the production. That was not smart. I think we figured that out. We're going to have to solve for that real fast because, you know, if you're looking at the midterm elections, this is a political issue now. In addition to that, food prices, so protein like chicken or, you know, fish or any of that,

they're up 30, 40, 50 percent. That's because supply chain's broken. We can't get stuff from one port to another. Even now it's still broken. And so half of this stuff will be tempered as the economy gets back in. I think half the inflation is kind of permanent, but half is supply chain. So I think things are going to be okay. I think inflation at the back end of the year will probably settle back down from 8% down to maybe 5%, which would be good.

The Fed's going to raise another 50 basis points twice at least. So we're going to get up to 3%, 4% real cost of money, and it'll balance itself out. I don't see a disaster coming because this cycle we are in full employment we have everybody working you can't you try and hire somebody right here in New York at a restaurant forget about it you can't get anybody to work because they don't want to or they already have a job so you know we're in a funky place right now and you have a you got a startup investing platform that allows people to become sharks,

and they can invest in new and upcoming companies, right? Yeah. Start engine? Yeah, this is something that came out of the JOBS Act years ago. The government wisely decided, why is it that only really rich people can be involved in venture startups? Like the guys that first invested in Google or in Apple or in Microsoft. They were traditional venture firms. Why can't we democratize this? And so what they created was an opportunity

to do equity crowdfunding. And StartEngine is the biggest of that. So the way this works is you're a company, you're a startup, maybe you're an underserved community, right? And you want access to capital. You tell your story on a startup platform like StartEngine and hundreds of thousands of investors can make an investment in it 200 bucks 200 bucks a thousand bucks whatever they want they become founding shareholders beside you and it's done in a really democratic way there's no preference share the trouble with venture capital is you want to raise three million bucks they say okay we have to be special shareholders we get our money back first we have a preference share we have control over you in ways that no one else has that sucks i

don't understand why anybody do that to themselves and look i've been involved in venture capital my whole life and i know how the game works but bottom line is this is a new way to actually raise capital now it got better just a few months ago when the government said, okay, it used to be the maximum you could raise was $1,070,000. Now, you can raise up to $5 million. And that's very competitive to what traditional hedge funds do, private equity funds do, venture funds. So now, StartEngine, which is basically, look, I'm going to be disclosed to you. I'm a paid spokesperson, but I'm also a shareholder in it. This thing works.

I put my Shark Tank companies on this. So if they want to raise dough, they go out there and say, look, I'm going to raise two or three or four million dollars, and you can have a piece of it right beside me. That matters a lot because you're going to be just like me. We're all equal on this journey together. And StartEngine itself, the engine platform itself is raising its own money on its own Start engine so if you want to be an investor in the platform itself they're raising around right now another 40 million dollars on their platform we've got people come up in and uh you know try to crowdfund with start engine yeah yeah like uh fan fan base did that because you can you can if you already have customers if you're selling a product or service and you've got let's say 10 000 customers or even

a thousand customers you can go to them and say look i know you're selling a product or service and you've got, let's say, 10,000 customers or even 1,000 customers, you can go to them and say, look, I know you're using my product or service. How would you like to be a shareholder beside me? And you're going to find some large percentage say, hey, I'm happy to do that. And frankly, they have a very long-term view. Instead of saying, I'm in a fund that I have to get liquid in three years or five years, they may stay with it their whole lives. The guy that started this, Howard Marks, came out of Activision. He was one of the co-founders of Activision. He gets the joke.

He's been doing this a long time. And so he knows that startups, and when you invest in startups, you need diversification. I talked earlier about how you don't want to be too concentrated in any one deal. If you're investing in StartEngine, I recommend you buy seven or eight deals. Build a portfolio because you don't know what's going to work. Do you have to give up equity if you're on here and you're raising money from StartEngine?

Yeah, of course. You're selling shares to shareholders but you, as the founder, set the price. And you discern what the market wants to do. You tell your shareholders, look, I'm going to do another round. I'm going to raise another three million bucks. But at least it's in a way that's very democratic and very diverse, and you get a lot of shareholders.

Instead of having one VC shareholder that owns 30% of your company, you get 3,000 people. So that's why they call it equity crowdfunding. You've got a real herd of people that care about your brand. I was going to ask, you know, you talk about in this music industry that everybody's a workaholic, right? They work hard, they outwork everybody, but you don't necessarily believe or hire workaholics. No, no.

Why not? I don't hire workaholics. I'll tell you why. If you look at, you know, productivity, in other words, great managers, great investors, great entrepreneurs, you're going to find a common trait, and I'll tell you what it is. And I've seen this happen over and over again. Ask that man or woman, you know, what they do with their spare time, if they have any. And you're going to find out it's something in the arts or it's something in sports or it's something that has nothing to do with business because you need the balance in your brain of the, you know, the yin and the yang, as I call it,

between the chaos of the arts and the discipline of business, which is very binary. Either you make money or you lose it. And I found the greatest managers for me are ex-dancers or artists or archers or soccer players, where they have some discipline in their life that they really struggled with early on. When you start dancing at four years old and you're still dancing when you're 32, that's a big deal're going in every day and it's in your head and that makes you very very effective and that's what i find so i'm always asking people you know what else do you do like you sound great on paper but tell me about yourself if they're great guitarist or violinist or a painter that makes me very interested because all of the people i work with have some other discipline that they're very good with and my team is really efficient that way they still

get their job done but they pursue other things it kind of gives them more productivity in their brains that's what I think and it's it's look I'm just doing what works for me and the other thing that's happened to me over these 14 years on Shark Tank the majority of my returns have come from companies run by women 75% so that's why I tend to invest in women entrepreneurs because they're very good at mitigating risk. You know, that old adage, you want something done, give it to a busy mother. That's true in business. I agree a hundred percent. And the discipline that you talk of, I think that's why they're

so successful as well. But can you, can you expand on that? Cause I love that jewel that you just gave. You said the chaos of the arts. Yeah. And what is it? Think about writing a song, you know, some of the greatest hits ever written. I was listening to this documentary about the Bee Gees, one of the most successful bands in history. There's only one brother left, but he was talking about one day they were on their way

to their recording studio in Miami. And this was the time when they were doing Saturday Night Fever, which ended up being one of the biggest albums ever. And there's that, you know, there's a track that has sort of a really funky riff in it. And the reason it happened was the tires were going over the Miami causeway between metal grate and concrete, metal grate and concrete. So it started to get in a groove, and Barry was listening to it, and he was just...

because it was just going over and over and over, and he walked into the studio and said to the drummer, I got this thing in my head. I just got out of the limo. Make this sound for me. And that turned into one of the greatest hits they ever had. Just chaos, right? Just in a limo, listening to the great on the wheel, the rubber wheel.

That's the kind of thing that gives you productivity in business. Same thing. Something hits your head, came out of the arts, and you apply that. Maybe you're coding, maybe you're doing something else. I think I'm a big believer in that. We have more with Mr. Wonderful, a.k.a. Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank.

So don't move, it's The Breakfast Club. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. It's the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Mr. O'Leary, Kevin O'Leary, Mr. Wonderful from Shark Tank. Yee. Now, Shark Tank, how often do you invest in somebody who maybe their vision isn't quite there, but you like their personality? Is that something that you would do or is it strictly business? Maybe you feel like they're charismatic. It could go somewhere. You can see them being a good spokesperson for something, you see the potential. Yeah, listen, I think it's all about the jockey because if you think about, particularly

this last two years, if you didn't know how to pivot, you went out of business. So you have to look at that entrepreneur knowing their business plan is full of s**t. They have no idea what's going to happen and they just don't know. I've never seen a business plan that didn't look terrific, right? Everything's going up to the right. Everybody's numbers are going to go through the roof. But that's not how it works. S**t happens. And you have to be able to deal with it. And that's why you need the arts. You know, you need some other aspects, some other place you can go in your head to solve these problems and figure out what is the path of least resistance to success. Because right now we're in a bear market. And a lot of companies used to have access to cheap capital don't have that anymore now they got a pivot this is where they're really going to get tested and i think that's important it

happens every seven eight years now you sharks get tested with each other sometimes when you guys are actually like uh one of the shark tank contestants that come up there so what is something that you missed out on that you still kick yourself out about to this day? Well, it's Ring. Everybody knows that deal. And we're friends now, but I offered him the $600,000, but he wouldn't take it.

I put it out as debt. I was the only Shark that believed in him. I would have made about $400 million on that deal. Goodness gracious. So that really sucks. But at the same time, he did the right thing for him. And that's okay. Jamie, pretty good guy.

Pretty good guy. It was too much equity? We see too much equity. Was that what it was? No. The problem was he was burning through so much cash that I knew he'd have to keep raising money and I'd get diluted.

So what I said to him was, look, give me 2.5% warrants. That's just my little you know it's not my little kiss I'll give you six hundred thousand in debt for three years at seven percent which I thought was a reasonable offer he said I don't want any debt I said well it's my six hundred thousand like you know I'll take a little bit of equity and you can go raise more I know I'll get diluted but at least I'll get my six hundred thousand back plus seven percent which I thought was very

reasonable he didn't take the deal but it would have been a great deal for me and it would have been a good deal for him but it doesn't matter at this point that's water under the bridge i thought barbara was on this show before the pandemic what didn't she come yes she was you know how she got here i bought her a new broom the two of you go at it yeah but you guys love each other behind the scenes we do actually she's uh we're both we're both cooks she's a very good cook actually and we often have dinner at her apartment it's fantastic

we've been doing this together for 14 years I mean that's a really long time so all of us and we're very proud of what we've built and it's an iconic platform in America and it creates millionaires and billionaires hopefully one day and it's an iconic platform in america and it creates millionaires and billionaires hopefully one day and it helps us watching if we ever need to pitch something

because i watch jack tank all the time for when i have to do my pitches to know what to do and what not to do yeah you know there is something i would tell you um that i've learned over these years and it may sound crazy but it's true I'm sitting right in front of them when they walk out on the carpet. And what you don't know about the show is that when they step out, the floor director says, okay, stand right there. Because they need a jib shot and they need the Steadicam to come over and get a shot of their product with the team standing there. And that takes about two and a half minutes to get it right.

They'll keep shooting until they get it right. But they just have to stand there and can say nothing. I do this thing where I just look at them. I don't blink. I don't smile. I just look at them. And I watch their body language. And I can tell after about 90 seconds, winner, loser.

The ability to present yourself physically without speaking a word your presence your aura is a big deal it's a big deal because you only walk into a room and meet new people once and they they're looking at you you're looking at them and it's how you deal with that nervousness that nervous energy and i i keep doing this i mean maybe maybe maybe it's mean to me. I don't think so, though. Because I can tell the ones that push back, that have the guts to take the heat. Because now there's 26 cameras on them. The lights are on. They've been practicing in front of a mirror for two months.

But now it's the real deal. And they're in there. And the cameras are about to roll. And you can see them sweating bullets there. Because even the ones that think they had it nailed are dealing with the reality of being in front of you know billions of dollars an opportunity of a lifetime the world's going to meet them some of them don't make it some of them pass right out you don't see that but they're oh yeah they just how many have passed out we had a couple really yeah you know how it happened you know that phenomenon when you're in a drum crew, drumming on the football field, if you lock your knees for more than two minutes,

you're going to pass out. That's what happened. There was a guy who was six foot four in front of me, and I could start to see him. Dazed and all. Nosedive right into the concrete. Like, unbelievable. And we had to shut that set down.

We had to get the medics in there. He was okay. He was okay, no problem. But, wow. Hey, stuff happens. How'd you get the medics in there. He was okay. He was okay, no problem. But wow. Hey, stuff happens. How'd you get the name Mr. Wonderful? That's very WWE. Yeah.

We think, and we haven't found the tape, that it might have been Barbara back in season one when I made some aggressive deal to somebody and she didn't like it. And she said, well, isn't that just wonderful? And I said, yeah, it is a wonderful deal. And she said, well, isn't that just wonderful? And I said, yeah, it is a wonderful deal. And it just kind of stuck. And, and, or it could have happened before then. We're not sure. I, it might've been in a previous show. I don't know, but it, it's sort of, um,

it's amazing because a lot of people don't know my name anymore. They just call me Mr. Wonderful. Like I'll walk in and get picked up by a limo at LAX and there's a sign saying Mr. Wonderful. And I say to the guy, do you know my name? He says, no idea, but you are Mr. Wonderful, aren't you? I said, yeah, it's kind of weird. Do you prefer being a solo investor or do you like when you guys team up? Much prefer solo. I like to control the deal. But sometimes it's a really hot deal. You're going to have to go in with other sharks if you want a piece of it. And then the teams we've been working together, we have our own analysts and everything else and they work out the deal and do diligence and we paper it up and uh but you know i can do the whole thing is my job for these investors is to get their story out there so you know i've got a huge social media team i got millions of followers when i get

into a product because i believe in it and i use it. You know, something like Banana Loca. I don't know if you saw that deal where you, with the peel still on a banana, you can actually fill it with peanut butter, which kids love because they take it in their, you know, lunch box and they open it and they say, look, this banana grew up with peanut butter in it. And they just peel it off and it's already full of peanut butter or jelly, whatever it is. That looked like a really stupid product to me when I saw it. But boy, is that thing selling. It's fantastic. Now, I'm in that deal with Cuban. We both liked it. So had to put it together. And that's good. We do a lot of stuff together.

All right. Well, Kevin O'Leary, ladies and gentlemen. Mr. Wonderful. Mr. Wonderful. Now, tell them to start engine the site the site so people want to go to the site and possibly pitch their business yeah I highly recommend it checking out start engine calm just the thing to do there is simply go to the website and look at all the deals see how others are presenting themselves even underserved communities everybody can raise money on there it's not it's not an exclusive thing for just, you know, venture capitalists. It's anybody that wants to raise capital for any business has any idea.

And that's how it should be. That's how you democratize investing. But you get, the reason you care about the platform is it has the one thing you need. It's got investors. Hundreds of thousands of them every day combing, looking for another deal. Most of the guys and women that are investing on there know that they want seven or eight deals. So they're looking for the next deal. Oh, I like that idea. I like that idea. I like that idea. I'm going to put a little bit of that into my portfolio. And they hold these portfolios on

StartEngine. I can't, listen, I'm a big believer in it and it's growing. And if you want to invest in StartEngine itself, you can do it now because they're raising another round so you can invest in the mother engine itself, which I think is a great investment. And shout out to Dawn Dixon from PopCom. She's on there too. She's been on the show before a couple of times. Yeah.

And she's on StartEngine. I'm actually doing some stuff with her, with her vending machines. StartEngine in the last, I'd say, 18 months has really taken off. And primarily I think it's because it went to the $5 million limit. Because all of a sudden, everybody realized, whoa, this is for real. We appreciate you for joining us.

Well, Forbes has put out their list of the highest paid athletes of 2022.

I feel like they do this every month. No, it's every year. Alright, so now who do you think is number one on that list? Soccer player. Definitely some type of soccer player. Cristiano Ronaldo. I don't know. Cristiano Ronaldo's number three. Oh, okay. LeBron's number two, by the way. That sounds right.

And number one is Lionel Messi. He's a soccer player, right? Yeah. Absolutely. Kevin Durant made the list. Steph Curry. Canelo a soccer player, right? Yeah. Yeah. But we was right. Yep, absolutely. Kevin Durant made the list. Steph Curry. Canelo Alvarez, by the way, is number eight on the list with $90 million. Sounds right to me. Where's Tom Brady?

Is Tom Brady anywhere? He's number nine. No, no. And then Giannis is number 10 on that list. All right? So those are the highest paid athletes. Now, Naomi Osaka, she is leaving her agency, IMG, and she's launching her own sports agency. Her contract expired at the end of last year, and she did explore the possibility of renewing her contract, but then she decided she was going to go her own way.

She said, I spent my career doing things my way, even when people told me that it wasn't what was expected or traditional. Evolve, that's the name of her agency, is the natural next step in my journey as both an athlete and businesswoman, as well as a way to continue being myself and doing things my way. So congratulations to her. You know, according to Sportico's 2022 list of the world's highest paid athletes with prize money and endorsements, she's number 20 on the list. So she's worth $53.2 million. And that's from her prize money and endorsements. And she has equity in approximately 12 brands. And she also founded Kinlo, which is her own skincare company, her own swimwear and sleepwear lines as well.

Alright, Alfonso Ribeiro. He was on Jimmy Kimmel Live and he was talking about a lot of different things, including people asking him to do the Carlton dance. You know when he did the It's Not Unusual. Here's what he had to say. Don't worry, I'm not going to ask you to do the Carlton dance. You know, when he did the, it's not unusual. Here's what he had to say. Don't worry, I'm not going to ask you to do the dance or any of that stuff.

Thank God, thank God. You must want to kill people when they ask you to do that, right? You know, I won't say kill, but I, you know, I don't have a love for it like they do. You know, I mean, I typically get asked to do the dance pretty much every day of my life if I go outside. For real? Yeah, if I go anywhere. It's like, you know, I just randomly hear people, do the dance! Yeah.

And you're like, I'm not dancing for you. Yeah. I'm a black guy. I'm just not dancing for you. I feel you. The weird part for me is trying to understand what's happening in their head. Yeah. Right?

Like, what makes you think that you're just going to ask a random person to dance for you, and they're going to be like, oh, my God, I've been waiting for the ass. I couldn't imagine doing that. He's not a random person. If I see him, I would ask him. The Apache dance, though, I think I might have liked that one. I would definitely. Y'all wouldn't ask him?

He would be doing it. Envy, I feel like I've seen you do the Apache dance. But, yeah, absolutely. But I would ask him because I would try to do it with him. That's a famous dance. Well, now you know. Don't do it. You wouldn't do that?

And to answer his question, he's not a random person. He's Alfonso Ribeiro. That's right. And the age of social media, yes, you do want to see Carlton and take the video with him so you can put it on your top pick. It's not unusual to be. I don't know. What the hell are you doing?

You're doing the ski dance. I can't do that dance. That's why I would ask him to do it. You can do it? I don't even know what the hell are you doing? You're doing the ski dance. I can't do that dance. That's why I would ask him to do it. You can do it? I don't even know what the hell you was trying to do just now. I was trying to do the Alfonzo whatever dance. The Carlton dance? The Carlton dance.

Okay. It's not his real name. It's his character. Oh. Yes. I forget he was a tap dance kid, right? So he's a tap dancer as well. And white people really do need to be cautious of that.

Don't be walking up on no black man asking me to dance. Dance. Dance. You better dance, boy. Dance, nigga, dance. No. All right, Rod Wave. According to the Tampa Bay Times,

they reported that he's accused of choking his ex-girlfriend on April 24th while their two children were in the home. The unidentified victim had a scratch located near the left center of her neck. She told police she had been asleep in her bed when he walked in and talked to her until she couldn't breathe. She said she dated Rod Wave for four years. They have two children together and that he attacked her after accusing her of talking to other men. The couple's two children were in their own bedroom when the alleged incident occurred. A rep for Rod Wave declined to comment on the situation when Complex reached out to them.

All right. Now, Ghostface Killer. He has his own day in New York City. He was awarded a proclamation by Mayor Eric Adams during a ribbon-cutting ceremony for his Killer coffee shop.

You know four after the hour, man. Let's have a conversation about karma. We all have various definitions of karma. This story that I have, I think it's a good example for all of our definitions. We'll talk about it. 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.

Angela Yee here from my friends at The General Insurance. Switch to The General and you could save over $500 on your car insurance. Call 800-GENERAL or visit thegeneral.com to find out more. The General Auto Insurance Services, Inc., an insurance agency in Nashville, Tennessee. Some restrictions apply. I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. No diggity. This was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. No, it ain't that.

It's the donkey of the day. It's the donkey of the day. It's the donkey of the day. It's the donkey of the day. It's the donkey of the day. That's pretty funny. Is Charlamagne the devil? Possibly.

The Breakfast Club. Yes, donkey of the day for Thursday, May 12th, goes to a 60-year-old Trenton, South Carolina man named Joseph McKinnon, okay? Salute to South Carolina. You know that's the crib, that's home. Now, before we go any further, it's very important to note that Joseph McKinnon is deceased, okay? He's dead.

I can't believe you're giving a deceased man Donkey of the Day, Charlemagne. Well, it's a teachable moment, okay? And for the past week, there's been a lot of discussions about a deceased man, and that man was named Kevin Samuels. I didn't watch Kevin Samuels videos. I've actually only seen one in my life. And that's when he was asking some man if he had a big penis. OK, I know he was polarizing, but anyone who gives the opinion for a living usually is. But that's not what we here to discuss this morning. There was a conversation about whether or not Kevin Samuels death was karma.

I saw people saying, oh, it's karma. He got what he deserved for talking about black women in this way. And it made me realize that folks don't really know what karma is. The dictionary defines karma as the sum of a person's actions. OK, in this in previous states of existence, viewed as deciding their fate in future existences. And informal and informal definition is destiny or fate okay following as effect from cause personally i believe that karma is simply action okay i do believe that karma is cause and effect there are actions and then there are consequences to those actions i don't believe karma is out of our control i don't believe karma is indirect for example let's say i help an old lady cross the street that doesn't mean i'm going

to end up randomly finding a bag of money you you know, later on in life because I did that, you know, good deed. All right. I like what the Buddhists say, and that is karma is an action, not a result. All right. The future is not set in stone. You can change the course of your life right now by changing your intentional acts and self-destructive patterns. If you've been listening to me, then, you know, I'm in therapy. you know, I'm big on investing in your mental wealth, but not just mental health, your spiritual wellbeing. Okay. Spiritual development is very important to me. It's one of the core foundations of my personal development and karma plays a key role in that. But karma is not what y'all think it is. Okay. If you do something negative, that doesn't mean that something negative has to happen to you. If that's the case, then why do bad things happen to good people?

Only good things should happen to good people, right? I believe that karma is based on your actions and thoughts in every single moment. Now, Kevin Samuels, his death might have been karma. OK, but it was karma probably based on whatever he was doing in that moment. They said he died from cardiac arrest. I told you heart disease is the number one killer of black people what causes cardiac arrest when a diseased heart's electrical system malfunctions what causes heart disease well a lot of lifestyle choices all right diet smoking not exercising a lot of things lead to high blood pressure high cholesterol so when you

say a man you know saying things you don't agree with about another person led them to have a heart attack. And that's karma. No, karma is action, not fate. It's an action, not a result. That's what the word karma means. Action. OK, not fate. In Buddhism, karma is an energy created by willful action through thoughts, words and deeds. We are we are all creating karma every minute. OK. And the karma we create affects us every minute. You smoking a cigarette right now? You waking up eating something you know your doctor told you not to eat?

Hell, you waking up and haven't been to the doctor in years? Those are your actions. And you will have to deal with the consequences of those actions later in life. All right. That's the karma you're creating for yourself. Now, I'm saying all that to say in terms of someone dying because of karma, today's donkey is a great example it's a great example of whatever you might think karma is i started this off by telling you that joseph mckinnon is dead

and guess what he suffered a heart attack see here you go uncle charlie here you go brother lennard contradicting yourself per usual you said a heart attack couldn't be karma that's not what i said i said i believe it's the karma you create for yourself. But if I wanted to point to a situation that could be considered karma by my standards, being in action and social media standards, oh, this would be the example. Let's go to people.com for the report, please. A South Carolina man who allegedly killed his girlfriend died of a heart attack while burying her in their yard. According to reports from local Fox affiliate WHNS, the Edgeville County Sheriff's Office says they believe 60-year-old Joseph McKinnon strangled his girlfriend, 65-year-old

Patricia Dent, inside their home on Saturday. But deputies were called to the residence after reports of an unresponsive male lying in his yard and arrived to find McKinnon's body. According to WHNS, medical personnel were unable to revive him. Sheriff Jody Rowland says while on the premises, authorities found a freshly dug hole and a second body, that of Dent, inside it. Investigators believe McKinnon attacked Dent in their shared home, then bound her and wrapped her in trash bags before putting her in the pit.

An autopsy confirmed she died by strangulation, while deputies say McKinnon's death occurred after he had a cardiac event while covering the pit. Now this is the example of karma that proves all our definitions of karma correct. I believe karma is action, so he killed this woman, then tried to bury the woman in the backyard and had a heart attack and died while digging the grave if your old ass wasn't doing such strenuous activities and strangling women and then trying to bury uh dig a grave to bury her in it you'd be alive today maybe okay and no telling you know how he'd been how he had been living all right he might have

been smoking drugs alcohol bad eating no physical activity and then all of a sudden you think you gonna go out in the backyard and dig a grave after murdering someone i've never murdered someone but i would think strangling someone with your bare hands and killing them takes a lot out of you all right and if you want to look at karma as hey you do something bad and something bad happens to you you right too with this situation this situation is a great example of both definitions of karma if you are like me and you think karma is a spiritual principle of cause and effect where intent and actions of an individual influence the future of that individual this is it alright nobody

told me to screen with that woman and then go dig a grave you reap what you sow but that's not all of it your actions and thoughts affect how you live your life and they might affect how you die. In this situation, we definitely have a case. Please let Remy Ma give Joseph McKinnon the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. Whatever you think karma is, this situation absolutely could prove both of us right.

Both of those definitions right. All right. Well, up next, Ask Yee. 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice or any type of advice, you can call Yee right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Come on.

Need relationship advice? Need personal advice? Just need real advice. Call up now for Ask Yee. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee.

Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Nicole. Hey, Nicole. What's your question for Yeezy? So the situation is I've been in a relationship for maybe like 17 years. And during my relationship, he had like different sexual interests. And I thought I'm like a dopronatrix. I really like control in the bedroom.

And he seemed like he was into it. I like to turn them out, but I don't really like when they're into it. So I've been noticing more and more where they are, he is like, tooking his booty out or it's like hanging. And I'm kind of not interested in it no more. So I want to know, how do I bring up the conversation with him

without hurting his feelings or emasculating him? So wait, let me, so the problem is that you're a dominatrix, right? But he's enjoying it too much. I want to say,

yes, that is the problem. Okay. You want him, you want him to be like, it's like, are you really now like interested in that or you know okay so in the beginning he wasn't enjoying it no he was i like like i said i like to turn him out so he

was like heck no stay away from that area what do you think this is kind of like okay so you mean with anal like putting something in his yeah okay all Okay. All right, well, first of all, you said the goal is to turn someone out. It worked. Yeah, it did. So now that you turned him out, you're bored. But the thing is, we are like partners, and I don't know if this is going to mess up our actual relationship.

Well, as a dominatrix, maybe you need to find something else to do to him next to turn him out on. Collaborate. I mean, OK, look, what other things do you do as a dominatrix in this relationship? Because I guess the dynamic now is messed up, right? As a dominatrix, he's supposed to be like, no, I don't want that. I don't like that.

He's resistant. But now he's like, yes, bring it. Do it to me. Peg me. Yes. And I guess that's that. Do it to me. Peg me. Yes. And I just said that. Do it to me. I noticed that he took his booty out

before I'm ready to actually take it and I'm like, mmm. Right, now this feels like something we both enjoy and it wasn't supposed to be like that. This is so wrong. So are there other things that you do to him in that situation, that relationship to, you know, maybe there's something else you could do where you're stepping on him with the high heels, maybe a little light whooping, anything like that? Yeah, we do a little role play of, you know, I want to stay asleep or patient.

We do like a role plays, but like I said, it's just more of now. Like, if we regular doing regular sex, he's ready to chew his tushy out. This is so wrong, man. What if you use a bigger dildo? What are we talking about? This is so wrong. Why is it wrong? Men

do not let women play on your butt unless they're willing to make a real commitment to you. Yeah, I mean, he gave you the butt and now all of a sudden it's too far. Guys, this is bad. This is bad. Okay? They're not married, right? Actually, we are married.

What? He gave you his butt, and now you're saying it's too much? You mad because you turned me off because I like it? You know, but the problem is that you did turn him out and got him to like something that he was resistant to at first. And now you don't like it anymore. So, I mean, what can you do? It works. Take that man, mama.

There's some suggestions. If not, like, I really feel like I'm in a hard place because I don't want to say to him, I don't want to do it anymore. And like I said, I'm the one that started this whole. Right, yeah. But. But. But. Oh, maybe you could do it anymore. And like I said, I'm the one that started this whole... But... Maybe you could do the opposite now, right? And torture him by not doing it.

Oh, man. What you don't do to another man's butt, somebody else will. I mean, is it that you don't want to peg him anymore at all? Correct. What if he acted like he doesn't like it now moving forward and you let him? Should I ask him to resist a little bit more? Yeah, tell him.

Tell him, look, the dynamics of what this was is not what it is now, and this is what I need you to do for me to feel turned on. He might actually enjoy that, too. That's not fair, Mama. If he likes something, and now all of a sudden you're supposed to be a couple, you're supposed to enjoy each other. Well, she's not enjoying it. But he is. Right, but he might enjoy also doing the role playing of acting like this is his first time doing it.

He didn't want to do it in the first place. You know what? He broke down for her to do it, and now when he actually likes it... If he wants it, he might have to play along. You know why a lot of men don't like butt play? Because they feel like it makes them feel like less of a man, right?

It makes them feel like a sucker, right? So now, I've been vulnerable with you. You turned me out, and now you're telling me to stop acting like a bitch. Well, guess who turned me into one? Tell us how you feel. I'm just saying. Anyway, have you communicated any of this to him?

Um, slight hints, but not very direct saying, you know, this is how I feel at this current moment. How can we make a change? Well, be direct. You're a dominatrix. Be direct, okay? And tell him, look, this ain't fun for me no more.

Before it was a resistance situation. You ain't want it. Now you tooting it up. Toot that thing up. Daddy, make it roll. What if I'm now seeing it in our regular household situation? It seems like I have to take control of everything. And it's like, is that from the

way of our bedroom action is? And now it's like, I don't want to call him bitching out, because I don't want to downplay who he is. He's far from a female dog. But he's very now soft, or he's not taking control, as I think a man in the household can be. So he might think this is what you want. And if you haven't communicated that you don't like it,

he might think this is the dynamic that you wanted. Charlamagne did say something real true. What you don't do, somebody else will do. Stop it, guys. It's the truth. You turned him on to it so he likes it, he enjoys it. Listen, you need to let him know that this is not working for you and this is not what your intention was

so he can take charge in certain situations again. This is why men don't open up our hearts are our butts to people because of situations like this all right but the main thing is that you're not telling him what it what it is that you need you got to let him know she wanted it at first and he didn't want to do it at first and then he finally opened up and did it and he got turned out and You and your assless chaps just be quiet. Why you doing that? That's foul. All right. So listen, talk to him. Okay.

I'm soft now. You got to work through this. You begged to play in my butt. I let you play in my butt. Now you looking at me like I'm soft. Let's just keep that. This is crazy. This is crazy. This is toxic femininity.

What's his number? We need to call him. No, stop it. This is toxic femininity. I don't think I want to put call him. No, stop it. This is toxic femininity. I don't think I want to put him on the spot. Yeah, don't do it. All right. All right.

This is toxic femininity. Ashley, we have no problem answering any questions. That's foul. This is foul. He opened up for her. He finally, he enjoys it now, and now she's just going to take it back. This sounded too personal, guys. Y'all say y'all can't get men to communicate.

Right. We open up. Then y'all tell us y'all don't like what we say. You say we don't share our emotions. We open up our hearts. Y'all break our hearts. Y'all say y'all, we get men to communicate. We open up. Then y'all tell us y'all don't like what we say. You say we don't share our emotions. We open up our hearts. Y'all break our hearts. Y'all say y'all, we don't want like butt play. We open our butts.

Now, look. Take it back. You guys have been too into ASCII these past couple of days. This is crazy. This is foul. Yeah, this is crazy. This is foul. These toxic women that are calling this radio station.

We need to protest. ASCII. I'm going to get a butt hat. I'm going to get a butt hat. I'm going to get a butt cheek hat. 800-585-1051. It's the Breakfast Club. Good luck. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,

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

Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

Three days of music and then the boxing event. What was going on in the world at the time made this fight as important that anything else is going on on the planet. My grandfather laid on the ropes and let George Foreman basically just punch himself out. Welcome to Rumble, the story of a world in transformation. The 60s and prior to that, you couldn't call a person black. And how we arrived at this peak moment. I don't have to be what you want me to be.

We all came from the continent of Africa. Listen to Rumble, Ali, Foreman, and the Soul of 74 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Here's some real advice with Angela Yee. It's Ask Yee. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the breakfast. I don't know how you beat these last couple of calls you've been getting, Yee.

I don't know. These calls are amazing. Listen, we have no problem answering anything. I don't know. These calls are amazing. Listen, we don't have no problem answering anything. Hello? Good morning. Hey, good morning. What's your name? My name is Kiki. Hey, Kiki. Kiki. I'm excited to hear what you got to talk about today,

Kiki. What's going on in your life? Man, it's like coming full circle, talking to y'all again. So, good morning, sir, DJ Envy, Anjali, Ying, Charlamagne uncle char so i had talked to you guys like two years ago um at the time i had just lost my son actually it'll be two years tomorrow that my son passed away and at the time i was married and it was really an unsupportive marriage my husband remember. I just realized my husband was a narcissist.

And so I took the advice that you guys gave because you guys are pretty much telling me, like, the decision I need to make. And I did. I got divorced. I left Minnesota. I moved to Texas. And I've been really happy and in a peaceful place. Did work on myself. Had a therapist.

All the things that I should do, you know, to help me heal from the death of my son and then divorce. So fast forwarding to now, I've finally gotten to the place where I feel like I'm ready to date again. I made myself a profile on Bumble and I actually found somebody that I was interested in. But I'm rusty, you know, it's been a while and you kind of swore off men and dating and all that kind of stuff. So I'm interested in this person and I'm like, how do I, you know, it's been a while and you kind of soar off men and dating and all that kind of stuff. So I'm interested in this person and I'm like, how do I, you know, not seem thirsty and, you know, kind of put it out there that I'm interested in him without, you know, I'm an alpha female. I get what I want, but I don't want to, you know, start a situation where I want to

be pursued, you know? So I'm just trying to figure out what do I do in that space? So he's on Bumble apparently to also date, right? Yeah. So that's what he's there for. That's what you're there for. And anytime you date somebody, it may or may not work out, but you should at least have a good time and enjoy yourself. And you might be overthinking it and putting too much pressure on yourself. You know, I understand that you're rusty.

You haven't been out there in a while and that's fine. Honestly, like he might love that about you because, you know, right now I'm sure you are vulnerable. You probably have your guard up. You haven't done this in a while. So take your time and don't feel like you go on a date and this has to be the be all end all. You're putting yourself back out there. You're realizing what you like. You're realizing what you like. You're realizing what you'll never do again.

So just allow yourself some time to go out. The goal should just be to have a good conversation and a good time. And that's it. And then you don't have to worry about that until things progress or they don't. But the worst thing that could happen is it's not for you and he doesn't work out. And now you're back, you know, dating on Bumble. But I feel like don't wait. Don't give up any options that you might have, you know, stay on there until you figure out what's going on in this situation. You're putting yourself out there. He's there to date, too. So you guys, you know, is he interested in you? Is he willing to go on a date? Yeah, we've been we've met each

other twice. OK, it's only been like a month since we met each other and i like everything about him i think he's fly he's only 43 he's already retired he's a bio uh microbiology and uh major air force you know so he's got all the qualifications that like you know spark my interest but i i want him to lead you know at the same time so i'm just like you know, spark my interest. But I want him to lead, you know, at the same time. So I'm just like, you know, I get advice from co-workers like, girl, no, let him come to you. And then other people like, you better call him, girl. This Houston is, you know, two to one here, this and that. So I'm like, OK, what do I do? You know, do what you feel like doing. If you feel like calling him, call him. If you feel like you're doing too much.

And also, don't give up your other interests and things that you have going on. You still need to have a life. So while you may want to see him and do this, there's nothing wrong with you calling him. You guys have been communicating. You've been out two times. Does he call you also? It's like I hear from him maybe once a week or so. And that's cool.

That's cool, too. But I'm like, okay, since I know inside, I'm like, I feel like he could be somebody I wouldn't mind, like, dating. Okay. Well, you can also make a plan. You can say, hey, I really want to go see this movie or I really wanted to do this. I want to try this restaurant. You know, you have any time this week to go? And you can just give him some indication.

Because sometimes, you know, a lot of times with guys, you got to, like, really be a little bit more proactive. Sometimes they might think, I don't want to come on too strong. And now you're both playing games. Right. And that's what somebody told me. And I'm like, okay, so I need to turn up the heat just a smidge to let him know that I am interested.

Yeah, and you're smart. You'll know if he's like, oh, I'm not available this week or next week. That means he's not really interested. But if you're like, hey, let's go try this restaurant know if he's like, oh, I'm not available this week or next week, that means he's not really interested. But if you're like, hey, let's go try this restaurant and he's like, okay, what about Thursday? Then, yes, he's interested. Okay, cool. Because that's what's been happening. Like, I'll hit him up and he's like, oh,

let's go have dinner. I'm like, I don't want to be the lead role, though, you know, in us talking, but if that's what's going to help initiate it, then okay, I got it. Well, you know you're in Houston, right? I am. I got to go everywhere.

It's a car show. All right. A good place to find a man will be the car show, June 19th, Father's Day weekend in Houston. Why don't you bring him? Ask him if he wants to go to the car show. That is a good idea, too. Thank y'all.

And can I just give a shout out? So I'm new here and I'm working on a venture. Since I left Minnesota, I'm trying to create affordable housing for people of color. So I'm going to go to the mobile home investors in June and meet them. They're from Illinois. So I have an IG. I'm Sweecy80 on there, Kiana Carrington. I love myself foundation named after my son.

Thank you, guys, for taking my call. And thank you for the advice two years ago. I like hearing everything you guys are doing.

And I just am really grateful to have gotten through again. So thank you, guys. Thank you so much. And I'll see you at the advice two years ago. I like hearing everything you guys are doing, and I just am really grateful to have gotten through again. So thank you, guys. Thank you so much, and I'll see you at the car show. And you sound amazing. You sound like an amazing person. Oh, I am, Angela. It just took me some time to realize, so. No, that's right.

All right. ASCII, 800-585-1051. Now, we got rumors on the way, Ye? Yes, and since we're talking about dating, we'll tell you what famous actress says she went out with 50 people in one year and even had to have some FBI help on one of her dates.

All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's a crazy show, man. No, it's you. It ain't me. It ain't you.

If I show you my text, my text is just wild. No context, nothing. But shout out to Miss Mika on Instagram. She just posted a part of it. It's new to Miss Mika. We're going to have to do the don't play gay bill because it's getting too out of hand, man. You got people running up on me in the street.

I told you I was in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. This little young boy. He was a young boy. He goes, yo, Charlamagne, word to my dad, you giving sexy, my boy. What did you reply with? I didn't know what to say. I didn't know if that was a threat.

I didn't know what was happening. So you didn't say thank you? I didn't know what to say. Well, the guy that does audio at my crib, he just texted me, big a dildo? Okay, okay, okay, okay. What'd he see in your house?

No context. Where's the context? What'd he see in your house? My homie, one of my barbers just texted me, just texted me out of the blue. in your house. Where's the context? What do you see in your house? My homie, one of my barbers just texted me. Just texted me out of the blue.

Peg me? Is he asking you? Man, put me in that group chat, man. You gotta be more clear when you talk about what's happening. I wanna be

in that group chat. Don't tell us your barber texted you peg me. Your barber and your cable guy, you said? Who'd you say?

The audio at the crib and the camera. Man, put me in that group chat, man. Tag me in, man. All I know is if you go through your phone and see those messages. What? What? You know what? Let's get to it. I hate y'all. Listen up. It's just in.

All it got. The Rumor Report. It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, Kendrick Lamar has revealed the cover artwork for his new album, Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers. That album is coming out on Friday the 13th. We all know we heard the song The Heart Part 5 with the music video that came along with it. And y'all saw the cover artwork. I guess he has a new child, a new baby, too. So he has two kids and his wife in the picture with him.

I can't wait. I mean, there's four albums I was really anticipating this year. One was Pusha T. Definitely Kendrick Lamar. And I'm anticipating Killer Mike's new project and the Queen Rhapsody. But I cannot wait till tomorrow. I'm going to stay up like it's a late playoff game, like a West Coast playoff game. Yeah, so we cannot wait to hear this just out of nowhere.

That's going to be, I feel like, the biggest album of the year. If I'm late to work tomorrow, mind your damn business. Oh, boy. That ain't got nothing to do with nothing. That ain't no excuse. Get up early. I'm old. All right, R. Kelly's Chicago trial date has been set for August 1st,

despite his lawyer's request for a three-month extension. So that's when that will commence. And he is facing life, just to FYI. So his lawyer was hoping that she would have additional time to prepare for the case, considering that she was hired relatively late to vindicate her client, but they did deny that request on Tuesday. They said that the case is three years underway, has already faced endless delays, many of which were brought on by the pandemic. All right, Rebel Wilson from Pitch Perfect. You know Rebel Wilson. She appeared on the You Up podcast, and she talked about her dating life. Now, right now, she's happily in a relationship, but she said in 2019, that was her year of love and she went on dates

with more than 50 people then I think I went out with about 50 people like in that one year but it was more like some of them were just like one date and then you're like oh no but but I deliberately wanted to push myself and and date a whole bunch of people and and to get that experience which I know is in itself is not normal. But to me, it actually really helped me in finding like what I was liked and what I didn't like. And it was just like, and it was a fun thing. And I don't think anybody got hurt by it or anything.

It was just like, and nobody else knew, just me and my close friends knew. It's not like I told people, oh, anyone who asked me out on a date, I'll go out with them. It more just like i i secretly knew if anyone asked me i get yeah i'm like yes okay so you said no to no one no yeah nobody all right in addition to that she said that she went on dates with the whole spectrum of people but it was weird like i did win on some dates with some billionaires and then also with like some people that had nothing uh like it was a. I did win on some dates with some billionaires and then also with some people that had nothing. It was the full spectrum of people. That's kind of incredible.

I feel like everyone should do that to figure out what they're looking for. Because sometimes you think you know what you're looking for and you actually don't. I think it's the most normal thing in the world. You say it's not normal. I agree with it. You're getting reps. Yeah.

I just felt like, oh, God, for a woman my age. And at that point, I was like 39. And I was like, you know, I really wanted a relationship, but I didn't know. Like, I'd only had a few small relationships. And so I was like, I'm going to just get more practice in dating. I don't think you should give everybody access to your energy like that, though, because that feels like there's no boundaries whatsoever. You just go kick it with anybody. You know, funny you say that, because she even had to ask the FBI for help on one of her dates.

The last person I went out with on the app, I did get the FBI to, like, check them out. Yeah. Just to make sure, like, they were, that there was nothing. And there was actually something in their past. Come on. What was it? Yeah, it was was actually something in their past. Come on. What was it? Yeah, it was an assault charge. All right, well, I just want to say this.

So she is vetting these people. Yeah, well, that one person, she said she had them checked in, but she is in a relationship now. She actually met somebody through a friend. All right, well, that is your rumor report. All right, now the People's Choice Mix is next. Get your request in 800-585-1051. In Houston, H-Town, I can't wait to see you guys.

And I just reposted this on my Instagram. And I want to share it with the listeners this morning. Nadra said a little secret from a therapist.

Toxic forgiveness is an unhealthy way that people pretend to be unharmed over it are forgetful of the offense forgiving to keep the peace are people pleasing is not healthy for your mental health or your relationships take time to process your pain slowly rebuild trust and decide if you need to show up differently in the relationship forgiving and forgetting is not a realistic approach to move forward. And she has an exercise to go with this. She says, repeat after me. It's okay that I'm not over things that hurt me, and I don't need to pretend. Breakfast club, bitches!
