Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Listen to Escape from Zakistan.
We need help!
That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you
get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series,
The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast
Post Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into
their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.
Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,
but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never
heard her before. Listen to
On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the
iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
And Charlamagne Tha God.
The Breakfast Club, bitches.
The voice of the culture.
People watch The Breakfast Club for light news and really be tuned in.
It's one of my favorite shows to do.
Just because y'all always keep it 100, y'all keep it real.
They might not watch the news, but they're on Twitter.
They're on Facebook.
They're, you know, they're listening to The Breakfast Club.
Get your ass up.
Good morning, USA.
Hey, what's up, fam?
What's up, fam?
It's Thursday.
Now, what are you doing here, Yee?
Well, I was supposed to be in Chicago today. Yeah, that's what I thought.
But unfortunately, yesterday my flight got canceled along with almost 400 something flights that were leaving from the New York area.
Mm-hmm.
So, yes, I was in the airport for a couple hours and my flight would have been okay, but there was some mechanical issues. So they switched it and then it got pushed back for another flight and then they canceled all the flights in the airport.
Damn it, man.
So I was in there with a bunch of people whose flights got canceled.
The good thing is, though, when they cancel your flight and you're at home.
Oh, they canceled it at home.
Okay, so you weren't at the airport.
No, I mean, I was at the airport, but I mean when you're in your hometown.
Uh-oh.
Because some people were coming and trying to go back home, and then you get stuck in the airport because you don't really have a place to go.
That's the worst.
And you don't want to leave because you don't want to miss.
I was like, well, let me rebook this and go on home.
Okay.
I just went home.
But the rain was pretty bad here.
They said there was a tornado in New Jersey.
They said a tornado in New Jersey.
Yeah, you know, when the weather's like that, it's pretty cool because I just stayed home and just watched movies with the family.
And I didn't anticipate being home.
So it was nice to be able to just not have anything to do.
But unfortunately, I had some things I missed
out on in Chicago, but we'll be there today.
Okay, alright. Yeah, I got a chance to watch
The Little Mermaid again, like the thousandth
time with my kids. But you still haven't watched Euphoria.
I did not watch Euphoria. Your kids will love Euphoria.
No, I'll pass, but I did watch
some more of, I don't know if it's called
Money Heist or Bank Heist, but it's on Netflix.
It's a great flick. Yeah, apparently you had the wrong
title, because people were like, what show is he watching? I was saying Bank Heist, but I think it's called Money Heist. But they know what I'm Heist, but it's on Netflix. It's a great flick. Yeah, apparently you had the wrong title because people were like, what show is he watching?
I was saying Bank Heist, but I think it's called Money Heist.
But they know what I'm talking about.
But it's a great movie.
I didn't want to give it away, but it's based in Spain.
They don't speak English, but they did it over so the words don't necessarily match the mouth.
So the mouth be moving and then the words come after.
It's weird, but it's still dope.
So definitely check it out.
It's on Netflix.
I think it's three seasons in.
I'm on like the second season,
like the last episode. So it's
great. It's really, really great. I've been watching this show
Typewriter on Netflix.
What's that about? No. Well, somebody,
they were saying how scary it is.
And so I've been
watching that.
It hasn't been that
scary to me yet.
Okay.
But I'm waiting.
I mean,
it's only,
I think it's like five episodes.
I'm only on the second one
so I'm waiting for it
to be like,
bang.
Yeah,
I don't do scary movies.
My son came in my room
last night,
my six-year-old.
He said,
boo.
And he was like,
dad,
there's a spider.
And I was like,
well,
what you gonna do?
Like,
what you calling me for?
You gotta shoot.
I think no one likes bugs.
Nah,
nobody likes.
I don't do spiders and snakes.
So my wife had to go in there and be the king of the castle and go kill it.
It wasn't me.
I'm not really scared of spiders, though.
I'll say that.
No, that spider was like the size of a cell phone.
It's got to be like a big roach.
No, it was like the size of a cell phone.
It was huge.
But anyway, let's get to it.
You let her go in there and do that?
She's strong.
She good.
I got to get to work in the morning.
What happened to that spider jump that killed me?
No, I'm just kidding. Wow, so it's okay if the spider jumps and kills your wife? She's strong. She's good. I gotta get to work in the morning. What happens if Spider-Jumpin' kills me? No, I'm just kidding.
Wow, so it's okay if Spider-Jumpin' kills your wife?
She be out. I gotta hold the family
down. Nah, but she be...
I think your kids will miss her more. I'm sure they
will. I'm definitely sure they will.
Well, let's get the show cracking. Sherri Shepherd will be
joining us this morning.
So we'll kick it with Sherri Shepherd.
She has that movie, Brian Banks, coming out
tomorrow. Yeah, Brian Banks comes out tomorrow.
She'll explain it, talk all about it.
And then we got front page news.
What are we talking about?
Well, one of the biggest stories today, 680 undocumented immigrants were arrested.
We'll give you those details and what people are asking first and foremost.
All right, we'll get into all that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Hey, morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Where we starting, Yee?
Well, let's talk about immigration authorities.
They have detained 680 undocumented immigrants.
Now they're saying that's a record-setting operation, and that was in Mississippi.
Now, CNN affiliates have reported the raids were at food processing plants
throughout the state.
And they actually have video showing a young girl,
11 years old, begging and crying
for a chance to see her mother.
So once again, who knows what happens
with the children of these people
that they picked up.
But we do know that that's happened
just now in Mississippi.
It's getting ridiculous.
And they get separated.
Of course, they know what happened.
They get separated from their parents.
Right.
So when are they ever going to see their parents again?
Where do they take them?
They got a facility in Mississippi?
I'm not sure exactly where they took them right now.
But these were arrests from, as they've said, from ICE, criminal search warrants.
They were executed by special agents from Homeland Security Investigations.
So right now, they've been arrested.
They're being detained.
We don't know if they're all going to get deported
or what's going to happen right now.
All right, now, the owner of SoulCycle Equinox
and the Miami Dolphins,
the billionaire owner of all of those companies,
real estate developer Stephen Ross,
he's hosting a luncheon tomorrow.
And they're saying that that is to support Donald Trump.
So now there's outrage for anybody who participates.
If you go.
And by the way, I love SoulCycle classes.
So a lot of people are saying they're not going to SoulCycle.
People have canceled memberships at Equinox and all of that just because of this fundraiser that the owner, Stephen Ross, is having for Donald Trump.
That's right.
Boycott working out, damn it.
All right.
You can go other places.
We have options.
Go ahead and let that gut grow.
You can always go to Flywheel.
You can always go to Crunch.
You can always go to Blink.
So they're going to boycott the Dolphins too?
I mean, I'm not a Dolphins fan, so that doesn't have to be.
Yeah, but people have been boycotting the Dolphins unless you live in Miami.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, so, you know, hey, and look, you have choices. I'm not a Dolphins fan so that doesn't happen to me people have been boycotting the Dolphins unless you live in Miami yeah so
you know
hey and look
you have choices
if you decide not to
frequent those
you can go to
Rumble Gym
you can go anywhere else
that sucks if you was
out eating crazy
last night
and having a few drinks
you're like you know what
I'll burn it off
in SoulCycle this morning
now you gotta sit down
for a second
you can go to a different
class in a different gym
there's so many
I thought SoulCycle was scheduled yeah but you can go to scheduled classes at Flywheel You can go to a different class in a different gym. There's so many other classes. I thought SoulCycle was scheduled.
Yeah, but you can go to scheduled classes
at Flywheel. You can go anywhere else.
Alright, now let's talk about a woman in Georgia.
Her rant has gone viral
on Facebook Live because she
says that she's HIV positive. Check it out.
I am HIV positive.
Roy D. Roger
you HIV positive.
Jeff, you HIV positive. Dem A. You HIV positive Jet F*** you HIV positive
Demonte B*** you HIV positive
The little bitch you f***ing
She gonna be HIV positive
Goddamn baby dad
Tony F*** you HIV positive
All y'all n****s down the f***
You HIV positive
That's not how HIV works
The woman is identified as Brandi Yakima Lassiter,
and she's basically in this one-minute video
bragging about getting revenge on these different men who she's named
and says that she always gets the last one.
But she's bragging or she's just hurt and just, you know what I mean?
She probably just found out she got HIV and she's probably hurt.
Yeah, and that's not how HIV works.
Just because you slept with somebody with HIV
doesn't mean you automatically contract HIV.
Yeah, what if they're on PrEP?
Then they're protected. Even if they're not on PrEP.
Like, you don't just catch HIV
just because you sleep with somebody with HIV.
But they can't. You can't be exposed to it.
You've been exposed to it. Yeah. So the investigation
is still ongoing. The police have to prove
first that she even is HIV positive.
But it is a felony in Georgia, by the way,
to knowingly transmit HIV to
another person. Yeah, that doesn't seem revengeful.
Revengeful, though.
It doesn't seem like she just found out and is pissed off and talking about the men that she had sex with.
Hurt people hurt people.
That's all.
And I will say, one of those guys that she named is mad that she named him because he's in a relationship.
He ain't even thinking about the HIV part.
He's just like, why you blow my spot up to my girl?
One of the men in the video did come forward and file a communication harassment complaint.
So we don't know the truth to what's going
on with her. Better go get a test first before
you start filing some complaints. Alright,
well that is your front
page news. Alright, thank you, Ms. Yee.
Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to
hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night,
bad morning, maybe your flight was cancelled.
Maybe you were stuck
in the airport yesterday
all day.
How long were you in the airport?
Well, let's see what time.
You know, I always get
to the airport early
when I have a flight to catch.
My flight was supposed
to be at 2.
I got to the airport
around 12.30.
And I probably left there
around 4.
Well, the airport for you
is a club because you'd be
at the bar, you'd be drinking, you'd be
chilling. We had a good time. I was buying
drinks for people, pizzas for people.
I knew it. Alright. Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051. Hit us up
now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Is your country
falling apart? Feeling tired?
Depressed? A little bit revolutionary?
Consider this.
Start your own country.
I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Ladonia.
I'm Jackson the First, King of Kaperburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
The Waikana tribe owned country. My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that? Bullets. Bullets.
We need help! We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

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.

Charlamagne, the guy.
Good morning.

Peace, yeah.
I just want to shout out
people that lost their vision.
I lost my vision last year
due to diabetes,
so I'm just trying to keep it positive,
keep it moving.
Okay.
Man, I had a homeboy tell me yesterday
he losing vision in one of his eyes.
I don't know if it's because of diabetes,
but...
Yeah, I lost mine due to diabetes.
Diabetes, you know,
that's the leading cause of people losing their vision,
so I'm just trying to show some positivity and all that.
Yes, sir.
Yeah, I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm glad you're keeping it positive.
Yeah, got to.
Appreciate y'all for everything y'all do.
I listen to y'all every morning.
I was incarcerated last year, so I just listen to y'all every time.
Get me through my struggles.
All right.
All righty, brother.
Happy to have you home.
All right, you struggles. All right. All right, brother. Happy to have you home.
All right, you too.
iPhone Sim.
Yo, what's goody good?
Yeah, where you been?
Where you been, bro?
What?
He said, where we been like we not here
every morning
6 a.m. to 10 a.m.
I got a whole list
of things I've been
trying to get through too.
Matter of fact,
number one,
I need some tickets
to that car show,
Envy, yours.
I ain't paying for them
this time because the food was trapped last year. Damn. iPhone, iPhone, do you tickets to that car show, Envy. You heard? I ain't paying for them this time because the food was trash last year.
Damn.
iPhone, iPhone, do you come to the car show for the food or the cars, iPhone?
For the cars, boy.
You know what I mean?
I don't handle the food.
That's the building.
The building is the food.
When you go to the Mets game, do you go to see the Mets or eat the food?
I don't want to go watch no Mets.
Listen to me, though.
I bet you that food be fly at them real estate events because of Caesar.
Oh, shut up.
Caesar would never have no whack-ass food in the building. I only got three minutes. I mean, I only got one minute,. Listen to me, though. I bet you that fool be flying at them real estate events because of Ceaser. Oh, shut up. Ceaser would never have no whack-ass fool in the building.
I only got three minutes.
I mean, I only got one minute, man.
Let me shine.
I got it.
Listen to me.
Now, too, do you think that, because I think this is a respect thing,
do you think that Diddy would have even attempted to go with Lori Harvey
if her name was Lori Jackson?
50 Cent's daughter.
50 Cent doesn't have a daughter.
Oh, my God, man.
I said, do you think he would have even attempted to do that?
So you're saying this is a hypothetical question is what you're saying.
So what's the...
I think this is...
Go ahead, Angela.
I was going to say, so what are you saying about Steve Harvey?
I think that he really, you know, he's a good guy,
but I think that Diddy really don't respect him enough to even...
Like, for example, he wouldn't do that with anybody who he respected.
50, let's say Uncle Murda had a daughter.
iPhone.
It's crazy how you think that woman don't have a mind of her own.
iPhone is 6 in the morning.
This is what you think about at 6 in the morning?
Yes, it is.
Say what, bro?
This is what you think about at 6 in the morning, iPhone?
It's crazy how iPhone sims don't think that woman got a mind of her own.
This was like five shows ago,
but I can't really get through.
And one more thing,
yo, Angela, Angela,
did you get my message
about me helping you out
with that thing
on usphonebook.com
that I sent you?
Um, yes.
And why you didn't
give me no thank you?
Or, or, or,
or spread the love
to Envy and Charlamagne
and to like help
them get their s*** off?
Cause that wasn't
actually my number,
that was somebody else's number.
Yeah, a lot of that stuff that you sent me wasn't the right number. That was somebody else's number. Yeah, a lot of that
stuff that you sent
me wasn't the right
information.
I've seen it too,
iPhone.
You hit me 17 times.
I got you, brother.
I'm just trying to
help you out, brother.
Thank you.
But I appreciate it.
Somebody else told
me about it because
that wasn't my number.
But thank you, iPhone.
Well, it must have
been connected because
they told you,
obviously, right?
Yeah, it was somebody
who doesn't even live
in New York whose
phone is turned on.
iPhone, I'll see you
at the car show.
Gang, gang. iPhone, Sim got a you at the car show. Gang, gang.
iPhone, Sam got a lot to get off his chest this morning.
Goodness gracious.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.

Wake up, wake up.
Wake your ass up.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Say it, say it off your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Angel.
Angel, what's up? Get it off your chest.
Hey, I'm just fake mad right now because when you guys have humble The Breakfast Club, I can never get through.
But, Charlamagne, you need to start getting to work on time, man.
I look forward to that yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
That's like my morning coffee, man. What's up?
It's crazy how no matter how many times I tell y'all my contract stays 605, y'all
just won't believe me.
We don't believe you, but please, man.
Yeah, we don't.
Alright, thank you, brother. Angela Yee,
thank you for being on time every single day.
Have a blessed day.
Okay, thank you. I try my best.
Not every time, but you do better. You're better than Sean, man. Let me tell you. I try my best. I don't be on time every day? Not every time, but you don't want me
to be on time today, though.
You better than Sean, man.
Let me tell you
what Envy said to me
when he walked in
behind the scenes.
What?
Okay, I was supposed
to be in Chicago this morning,
but my flight got canceled.
Envy walked in,
saw me, and said,
I didn't know you
was going to be here today.
If I would have known,
I would have came in late.
Yeah, because I had to get gas.
It was either get gas.
Come on, man.
If I got gas,
I'd have been late,
but I thought you wasn't here. I thought you was in Chicago, so I was like, damn, I'll just get here. That gas. Come on, man. If I got gas, I'd have been late. But I thought you wasn't here.
I thought you was in Chicago.
So I was like, damn, I'll just get here.
That's a terrible way to think.
But I need gas.
But now when I get out.
Can I ever be late?
I'm going to have no gas.
Huh?
Can I be late sometimes?
Sure.
You have been.
Barely.
I think things happen, but it shouldn't be every day.
I'm not late every day.
Get your contract changed to 605 like me.
Rachel.
Good morning.
What's up, Rachel?
Get off your chest.
Charlamagne, I definitely agree with you.
My contract starts at 605, too.
I don't know.
Hey, salute to us.
Y'all are crazy.
605, gang.
So basically, I just want to say good morning.
I love you guys.
And give a shout out to my boyfriend, Jermaine.
And I also want to ask, you guys talk about Nicki Minaj a lot
in your rumor report,
but you guys don't play her music.
Why don't you play her music?
Well, I have control over what I talk about
in the rumor report,
but we don't program the music on the station.
What song should we be playing?
Well, I don't play music neither.
I'm just asking, what song should Radio be playing?
I mean, she has a lot of new songs
that would chance the rapper.
She remixed the Baby song. I mean, she has a lot of new songs I would chance to rap her. She remixed the Baby song.
I mean, I just...
That's hard.
...hear her songs in the mixes or anything.
I would just love to hear her more,
you know, on The Breakfast Club.
Well, tomorrow, Hot Girl Summer drops
with Meg Thee Stallion.
I'm sure we'll be playing that.
We have an iHeart exclusive
for that for you tomorrow.
We'll play it every hour on the hour
just for you.
How about that?
Well, then we're going to do that anyway,
but we're definitely going to play it
every hour on the hour, Mama. We're taking the credit. Meg Thee Stallion featuring Nicki Minaj. The Breakfast Club will play it every hour on the hour just for you. How about that? Well, then we're going to do that anyway. But we're definitely going to play it every hour on the hour, Mama.
We're taking the credit.
Maggie Stahl, you're featuring Nicki Minaj.
The Breakfast Club will play it every hour on the hour over all iHeartRadio
urban stations tomorrow.
Just for you, Nicki Minaj fans.
There you go.
Hello.
Who's this?
Hey, B.
Hey, what's up?
Get it off your chest.
Hello.
Good morning, DJ and B, and Angelique.
Good morning.
Good morning. DJ and V, and Angelique. Good morning. Good morning.
All right.
So, a couple years ago, I was living with my ex-boyfriend, and he had a light door in my name.
Uh-oh.
So, yeah.
I happened to move out, but I kept it in just for the time of my life.
I kept it in my name. Of course, he didn't pay the bills.
So, now I can't get the life in my name.
So, now here, two years later, I ran down to him,
and me and his girlfriend had got into an argument over the situation.
Reminds you, I was arguing with him, but she wanted to jump in.
First of all, the reason why he owned me,
that's not because I wouldn't have sex with him while he was with her.
So, for her to come at me, I'm like,
my girl,
you better date me
because if it wasn't for me,
you wouldn't have you
with him right now.
And you wouldn't have
had no lights.
Exactly.
Thank you.
So who paying
the light bill now?
I don't have,
magically,
I have lights.
I don't know how.
Magically.
But I still get it in my name. And it's crazy. They're like, how are you going to do this to me? I don't know how. Magically. But I can't get it in my name.
And it's crazy.
They're like, how are you going to do this to me?
I just got a child and all that.
That's my story.
I was going to say nice to you because I want to have sex with you because you had a girlfriend.
Can I give you some advice?
You going to pay for a light bill?
No, I'm going to give you some advice.
Oh.
Okay.
He's never going to give you that money back.
Nope.
So no matter how much you try to harass him about it,
all it's going to do is be stressful for you.
So you just have to chalk that up as a loss
and figure out how we're going to move on and move forward past this
because all you're doing is putting some more stress and burden on yourself.
You have to chalk it up and chalk him up as a loss, and he's a loser.
Have a good one, Mama.
All right. Thank you.
All right. Get it off your chest.

If you need to vent, you can hit us up at any time.
Now, we got rumors on the way, Yee?
Yes, let's talk about Nicki Minaj and Hot Girl Summer
since we've been talking Nicki Minaj this morning.
And she talks about how she wrote that verse
and what went down for her to even hop on that song.
All right, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is the Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, let's talk about Meg Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj together on Hot Girl Summer.
Everybody was excited to see them on Instagram together live.
And I guess that's how everything jumped off
for them to actually
do this remix
or actually the Hot Girl Summer
song together.
Nicki did her own verse.
Now here's what
Meg Thee Stallion had to say.
So the song was already recorded
and ready to go.
And then we just went live together
and she literally recorded
her verse that night.
And they sent the song to me
and I was like,
this is not real life.
Like y'all are playing right now. And you loved it I love it like it was amazing
I can't believe she did it so fast now one of uh Nicki's fans wrote on Twitter bitch the effing
fact we got a track from a random IG FaceTime and then it was a genuine link like dude this is
effing major Nicki Minaj responded so true I was right on the verge of losing my voice
and it was mad late so I was already sounding like a man
but once I heard the song, I fell in love.
Wrote it before I went to sleep. None of that was planned.
I had no idea Meg was on live or that
she would want to go live together. It's safe
so we can say, you know, Hot Girl Summer.
Can't wait to hear the song tomorrow.
What's the expectations for this record?
It better be good.
Yeah, Hot Girl Summer has been such a big thing in the culture all summer long.
It's Nicki Minaj, it's Meg Thee Stallion.
They hyping it up.
Ty Dolla $ign.
Ty Dolla $ign.
What's the expectations for this record?
The record's tough.
The expectations are high, right?
It's got to be a summer song, baby.
That's why you should just let things come out instead of talking about it so much.
Just drop it.
Well, she's excited.
Well, it was supposed to come out.
I think I spoiled it
a little bit.
But you remember,
it was coming out last week
without Nicki Minaj.
Then when Nicki Minaj
heard it, she jumped on it.
They had to push it back a week.
Yeah, it was supposed
to already come out
and make the sound
and had to let people know
the song's coming out
next week instead now.
So it was supposed
to just come out
without all this hoopla,
but now it's just
turned into a bigger deal.
Yeah, that hoopla can,
that hoopla makes
everybody think,
oh my God,
this is about to be amazing
and if it's just cool, then everybody gonna act like it's the wackest thing ever.
Well, regardless, it'll be trending, I'm sure.
Oh, yeah.
When it drops.
All right.
Now let's talk about Jalen Ramsey, the cornerback from the Jacksonville Jaguars.
He's talked about how he's a great trash talker.
He was on the Bussin' with the Boys podcast.
And he talked about some of his behavior before games in college, what he used to do.
In college, like when I was at Florida State, I was grimy, like super grimy.
I didn't care.
Like I would, I was talking about your girlfriend.
Say I was playing like a big receiver.
I would look up his Instagram, see his girlfriend, whatever.
Boom, boom.
And I'd probably go slide in the DMs.
You know, we get to the game.
He'd probably know about it.
Maybe he'd do it.
Maybe she was going. But either way, I'm, we get to the game. He probably know about it. Maybe he do. Maybe she was gone.
But either way,
I'm bringing it up in the game.
Like, yeah, you know,
I slid in first name basis.
DM, she hollering at me.
I'm mad.
They get so mad right away.
Oh, yeah.
What's the problem?
Well, he said he actually
has stopped doing that now.
Why?
He said because people have wives
and things like that.
And he said somebody got shot
over talking about somebody's wife.
So somebody will get shot.
Yeah, if people don't play about their wives,
somebody get hurt.
You definitely shouldn't disrespect nobody's wife.
But let's not act like that.
Or their girl, either.
I'd not act like that's not hip-hop.
A rapper's been doing that since the beginning of time.
Well, he's not a rapper.
That's how you get in someone's head.
You psychologically get an advantage over them by just saying things like that.
Right.
Well, he stopped it, as he said, because he doesn't want to actually end up getting shot over something like that.
I know boxers do it all the time, too.
All the time.
Come on, man.
That's an age-old trick.
All right, now let's talk about Coming to America,
as in Coming to America Part 2.
Turns out Wesley Snipes will be joining the cast now,
so that should be pretty exciting.
Also, James Earl Jones and Paul Bates
will be returning to that sequel as well,
and they're saying that Rick Ross has also joined in.
I've heard.
I hear a lot of seasoned actors.
Where are the younger ones?
You know,
because I thought it was
maybe Hakeem's son
or something like that.
Where are the younger actors?
I'm hearing all these
older actors.
They haven't told you yet.
But I mean,
I guess it's exciting.
He's hearing all these
older actors
as if it's not a sequel
that is 35 years old,
40 years old.
Yeah, but I thought
it was based on his son
and his son's relationship
and things like that.
They're probably waiting
to announce who's playing what.
Okay.
You know, I'm sure that's going to be a big surprise.
Now, Rick Ross, besides that, has also announced his Port of Miami 2 tour date.
So he's going to be going on tour, and it kicks off September 23rd in Vancouver.
So it should be exciting for Port of Miami.
And those tickets do start going on sale tomorrow.
Ray J has signed a $1 million
deal. And that is because
he wants people to start investing in the weed
industry. So it's a cannabis crowdfunding
company called Fundana.
And so now he's getting paid
a million dollars a year just to get
people to invest in weed with crowdfunding.
I actually had the opportunity to
try some of Ray J's weed when I was in
LA. He gave us some. How was it?
It was pretty amazing. Okay. I could smell
it as soon as they walked in.
Alright, well I'm Angela Yee and that
is your Rumor Report. Alright, thank you
Miss Yee. Now we got front page news next.
Yes, and one of our producers was
really upset about this story and we'll talk
about something that could
be causing cancer. Some
chemicals in some place that you might eat.
Okay, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Did you steal the piece from my headphones over here?
Did I steal a piece?
Yes.
No.
That plugs in?
No.
Okay.
Why?
Just making sure.
You look guilty.
I know.
I bought my own piece.
You talking about this big piece?
Oh, so now all of a sudden you have a piece for the headphone and mine is missing?
This is my piece.
And mine is missing?
No, this is my piece.
That's interesting.
These are your headphones, but this is my piece.
What the hell are y'all even talking about?
My headphones, I'm trying to plug them in, and there's a piece missing.
I didn't steal that piece.
For you to plug the headphones in.
But he was missing a piece earlier, and now all of a sudden he has one and I don't.
Yeah.
It doesn't seem suspicious?
No.
Well, let's get some front page news.
Okay, Envy.
That's what I thought.
Go ahead.
You seem really guilty the way you're laughing.
I'm not.
Get that silly look off your face.
Go ahead.
Okay.
Now, see?
Now let's talk about a new report that people are very concerned about with Chipotle and Sweetgreen.
You know the bowls that that food comes in?
They tested fiber bowls from 14 different locations,
and they said those bowls all have samples of PFAs.
It's called forever chemicals. And so what they're saying is that chemical compound helps keep the bowls able to hold
hot, wet and greasy food, but it also cannot break down in the human body.
And some of that can accumulate over time.
And they're saying that that can be very toxic for you, which means that it's linked to cancer,
by the way, those chemicals.
So if you're exposed to that, if you eat at Chipotle and Sweetgreen, those bowls actually may not be safe.
And Dan, who works with us,
actually eats at Chipotle at least twice a week,
so now he's concerned.
All this food is going to kill us.
Stop eating at the devil's kitchen.
Grow your own food,
because these people care about money,
not your health.
Well, it's not the actual food,
it's the bowls.
Either or.
That hold the food.
The fiber bowls that people thought were safe.
The message still stands.
All they care about is money.
So they're not going to put it,
they're going to care about giving you the cheapest bowls
because they've got to mass produce a whole bunch of bowls.
So they're not going to care about, like,
your health or anything like that.
All right, now, Bernie Sanders,
he was on the Joe Rogan Experience,
and one thing that he has promised
to tell you the truth about is this.
If you got into the office
and you found out something about aliens,
would you let us know?
Well, I'll tell you,
my wife would demand that I let you know.
Is your wife a UFO nut?
No, she's not a UFO nut.
It's just, Bernie, what is going on?
Do you have any access to records?
You don't have any access?
I don't. Honestly, I don't know.
Okay. Do you let us know, though?
All right, I'll be on the show.
We'll announce it on the show.
Please.
Hillary Clinton said the same exact thing on The Breakfast Club in 2016.
Those aliens will make sure you don't win.
Same exact thing.
Mm-mm-mm.
All right.
She was asked about aliens by a media personality named Charlamagne Tha God.
All right.
The NBA is looking to revamp their mental health policies, and that is for the next season.
I love it.
They're going to be implementing new mental health initiatives initiatives and all 30 teams have to adhere to that.
So the rumored requirements is that you have to make
one to two licensed mental health professionals available for players
and you have to have a licensed psychiatrist to help with issues when needed.
They also have to have a written plan in case mental emergencies arise
and have to have confidentiality policies as well.
Listen, man, drop on the clues bonds for the NBA,
investing in mental wealth.
Salute to guys like Kevin Love and DeMar DeRozan,
who've been open about their mental health struggles.
And I'm sure that that caused a shift in the league last year
that made them react.
So salute to those guys and salute to the NBA.
Well, even last year, the NBA Players Association
also had a mental health and wellness program
that they had created
already.
And I'm sure it was because of Kevin Love
and DeMar DeRozan being so outspoken about the issue.
That's great. All right.
Puerto Rico has sworn in their third governor
in less than a week.
So their Justice Secretary, Wanda Vasquez
Garcet, was sworn in
and that happened yesterday
as the third governor. So we'll see
what happens. And they said that she might not stay
there, right? Because she really doesn't want the job so
she might give it to somebody else or something?
Yeah, I don't know what's going to end up happening
but as you guys know already
what happened, it was an unconstitutional
governorship from
the former governor and then
he had a handpicked successor. All kinds
of issues in Puerto Rico. So Vasquez has said that she respected the ruling.
She would assume the governorship. She said Puerto Rico does need certainty and stability.
That was her statement that she released via Twitter.
But yeah, we'll keep you updated on what's happening with the controversy.
My parents actually are on a cruise and they were just in Puerto Rico. Really? Yeah, they called me
from Marshalls. They'll find a Marshalls cruise and they were just in Puerto Rico. Really? Yeah, they called me from Marshalls. They'll find a Marshalls
anywhere. A Marshalls in Puerto Rico. Alright.
Alright.
Well, that's front page news. Now, when we come
back, Sherri Shepherd will be joining us. We'll
kick it with comedian and actress Sherri
Shepherd. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired? Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary? Consider
this. Start your own country.
I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Laudonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
The Waikana tribe own country.
My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullet holes, yeah.
We need help! We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.
Listen to Escape from Zakistan.

Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.
You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with
celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going.
That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about.
It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their
journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement
together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when
the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know,
follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart
of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeart

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.

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
Yep.
Miss Sherri Shepherd.
Hey, everybody.
Good morning.
Hey, Envy.
Hi, Sherri.
What's happening?
Everything and nothing and everything.
I'm very interested in seeing this new film.
Brian Banks, because when I was here last time, I talked about it a little bit.
Yes, and we had, what's the homie name of that film?
You had Alderson.
Yes, we did.
Oh, my gosh. Literally, he should get an Oscar for playing Brian the homie name of that friend? You had Al Jasson? Yes, we did. Oh my gosh.
Literally, he should get an Oscar for playing Brian Banks.
He kilted that much?
He kilted.
The movie was great.
You saw it?
Yeah, we saw it.
Okay.
So it's based on a true story.
It's based on a true story.
Brian Banks was ranked number 11 nationally as a defensive linebacker.
He was recruited by USC for a scholarship.
He was 16 years old when a girl at his high school accused him of rape.
And he was arrested, and they coerced him into taking a no-contest plea,
not guilty, not innocent, which 95% of our young men do take.
And they told him he'd be in school pretty much in a couple weeks.
Yeah, right.
And yes.
And his lawyer agreed with him.
And his lawyer agreed with him, and he asked to talk to
he wanted to talk to his mother
and they said no because they were trying him as an adult
and his mother had mortgaged
her house and her car
they thought he was coming home
he got sentenced to almost 6 years in prison
at 17 years old
he came out, he was still in prison
for 5 years because you have a pedophile label
you can't get a job
parole officers messing with you all the time and so literally in prison for five years because you have a pedophile label, you can't get a job, parole office
is messing with you all the time, and so literally
then the girl who accused him
contacted him on Facebook
and wanted to get together.
Which is so crazy.
Why would you think that's okay?
Because basically she was like, let bygones
be bygones.
I'm out here chilling.
Let bygones be bygones.
He videotaped her confessing that she lied about the rape, I'm out here chilling Nah, I can't let bygones be bygones Well, he taped her
He videotaped her confessing
That she lied about the rape
But in California, you cannot videotape
Somebody without their permission
So he couldn't use that
And he petitioned the California Innocence Project
They go, you know, try to help people who've been wrongly incarcerated
They represented him
And he got exonerated on a technicality
Because they charged him with kidnapping.
Don't tell him too much now.
Oh, okay.
You know the story.
You can Google.
You can Google.
It's a very popular story.
And I'm telling you, see my story.
It's a true story.
I know the story.
When the guy was here last time and he said Brian Banks,
I knew that story immediately.
I didn't know the story.
Yeah, but basically, you know, it's like when you're,
that was his purpose, his calling.
When that's torn away from you, he couldn't play football because he was too old.
Right.
What do you do?
How do you forgive if you meet Brian Banks?
He is so, he's smiling all the time.
He's a life coach.
He has a different calling now.
I think he's changing the world more than he would have if he had been a pro football player.
But it's just like, you know, how do you get past that?
I'm very interested to see how this film will be received in the Believe All Women era.
Right.
But you know what?
I think it's even more than Believe All Women or the Me Too.
I think it's about how the judicial system failed this young boy.
Because had they done their due diligence in the first place, it would have been cut and dry.
There was no DNA evidence.
There was so much.
The girl's story changed multiple times.
So the entire judicial system
failed this boy.
Even his lawyer. Even his lawyer
failed him. You know, and so
it just was just a big fail, even with
this parole officer who, anytime
he got a job, his parole officer would
call and go, you gotta come and report. But I'm gonna lose
this job. They don't care.
They made you look like a mama in there for real, for real.
Oh, my God.
When you just walked in there, I'm like, that's not who I just seen.
She is somebody's mama.
No, but I was a mama mama.
She was a mama mama.
I was a mama mama.
What's a mama mama?
Nah, nah, it's a different type of mama mama.
It's that, you know, it's that, like, come on, baby.
Come on, shit.
Come on, baby.
Come on, let me hug you, baby.
Like, that, you know, like that in real life.
That's it.
No, even when I met with Leomi, who is Brian Banks' mother,
and she opened up the door, I had big hair on
because I had done like a comedy show,
and my nails were long and I don't heels.
And she was like, oh, you're going to play me.
Okay.
Octavia's not doing anything.
Like, why are you here?
So it was a big transition into becoming this mother.
Why does she act like she probably ended up
dropping like it's hot when she was a kid?
Well, probably, but I think, you know.
Our era was wild, you know.
I know, but I was just talking about that.
We come from the freak neck Miami Memorial Weekend.
But you don't like to think of your parents as freak neck.
Like, well, Sherry, did you ever go to a freak neck or any of those things?
Girl, I done been out sometimes.
I ain't gonna lie.
It's been some garden tooling around my life.
Our parents got the same body parts we got.
They got the same desires, the same needs.
Yes, but my son, like he said to me one time,
and I said, I think I look cute.
He went, you will never, ever, ever, ever be sexy, mommy.
Ever.
Wow.
He goes, because your stomach is too round.
And I say, okay, now you sound like your dad.
That's why we got divorced
Me and your dad
And everybody told me
How old is he? He's 14
And I had a little sports bra
And he was like that's inappropriate
You're not me, you're not my age
But the men told me
Boys don't like to think of their mother as sexual
I can see that
So me telling Jeffrey yeah mama, mama was a freak.
That would, like, traumatize him.
That would be weird for your son to be like, yeah, ma, you look
sexy today. That's weird. I mean, it would be nice
if he would tell me that. Sexy? You don't
want your son to think that. I mean, you know, I think it's okay
to tell your mother she looks sexy.
I don't say none of him when he disappears in the
bathroom for three hours.
You think he'd be in that bathroom for three hours?
Can y'all please tell me this boy goes in the bathroom at 530 in the
morning, he runs the
bathwater, he gets out the
tub completely dry.
What is he doing in there?
If he's been in the
bathroom for three hours,
something's wrong.
Well, he's 14, but I went
and bought him some lotion
at Whole Foods.
I went and got him lotion.
A vino works well.
He might have went like
four or five times.
He's 14, so he might just
be able to keep on going.
I think so, girl.
They just, they're like
in the bathroom.
No, no, no, no, no.
We gotta understand
this is social media, Aries.
You can get lost on social media.
You can go down
a lot of wormholes.
I know, but I check
his social media all the time.
I get his phone and I check it
so he's not on the sites
or anything,
but like I'm ashy right now
because all my lotion is gone.
Gone.
You're still using up
all that lotion.
He's using up,
and then somebody told me
because I got him
the good lotion at Whole Foods
and somebody said,
no, that's too thick.
You don't want the thick lotion, but the cheap.
Right, it's like a cream.
Now I got to figure out what kind of lotion to get my son so he can go.
This is crazy.
Does he come out and fall asleep?
I'm not looking at none of that.
You got to wash the clothes.
I know, but I just pick it up and I put it in the washing machine.
I don't want to know.
Is it crunchy?
It's just, girl, I don't know.
Does he come out and fall asleep?
No, but he wakes up we was watching
Spongebob
he goes
mommy mommy
it's rising again
like whoa
and I said
Spongebob
he's 14
he's 14
he gotta stop
acting childish
cause that ain't
like he's 14
he know what it is
maybe I baby my baby
too much
he said mommy is rising
at 14
mommy is rising
he said every time
I think about Beyonce
it rises I was like I'm
going to have to talk to her because this is not
good. And then he goes look it's
happening. No it rises. He goes it's happening
again. He's 14. He know what that is.
My son was born at five and a half months so he's got
some unique challenges.
He's a little less than his age.
He's not true 14.
He thinks he is. So when he said he's rising what did you say?
What's your reply when he says he says rise again? I just looked at him
and I was like,
what am I supposed to do with that?
He's supposed to be like,
you're healthy.
Oh, okay.
Well, I just ignored it.
And then he goes,
look, it's doing it again.
And I was like,
he said,
how do I make it go down?
And I started to go,
well, think about me.
But then I didn't want to traumatize him.
That's crazy.
Like, I don't want that.
That's the end of the lotion.
Because he ain't going to be able
to satisfy no woman.
It's just a mama.
Think about me.
Has he ever seen you twerking on the Tom Joyner boat cruise?
He has never seen me.
Google that, son.
Google that.
He don't need to see none of that.
You know, he just let him think of me as Mother Teresa.
That's how I want him to think of me.
All right, we got more with Sherri Shepherd.
When we come back, don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Sherri Shepherd.
Charlamagne?
I saw you on DLHugley, son.
You said you got married because you were lonely and horny.
Oh, my God.
Well, I was going through this thing where it was like I was just doing The View,
and everybody had their life, so I didn't know anybody.
Okay.
And then a lot of people was trying to get close to me because they
wanted to come on the view. So it's very
hard not knowing anybody in New York. I was
lonely and then the church said you
can't have sex if you
burn and it's better to be married because
it was the celibacy thing so you should be
celibate. That just sounded crazy.
But that's why I brought that up because that's a good thing
to be able to tell your son.
Well I'm telling my son just you know I don't want you to do anything unless you're in love.
Like, it's better to keep yourself until you're married.
That's what I'm teaching him.
But when you're grown, that celibacy thing, I done already had a child.
I've been married.
So celibacy, it just wasn't, it was hard.
So I was, I was lonely because I was out here with no friends.
And then I was, you know, I was tingling.
Sometimes you think you're in love and you look back and you're like,
that wasn't love.
I didn't even think I was in love.
You never thought that?
No, I had a great deal of respect for the person, but I wasn't in love.
You still wanted to get married?
Well, I wanted my son to have a father, too.
Because I was just like, you know, he don't have a man in his life.
So it was also that.
I got married for the wrong reasons. And it just didn't work out because I was just like, you know, he don't have a man in his life. So I was also that. I got married
for the wrong reasons
and it just,
it didn't work out
because it was
for the wrong reasons.
So,
but my bridesmaids
were happy.
Nisa Nash and Kim Whitley,
they all got iPads
and the groomsmen
got three years.
I thought Nisa Nash
didn't want you
to get married.
She's the one
that introduced me
to my husband.
She wanted me
to get married.
Okay.
She regrets it now.
She said she's sorry
all the time.
I love her.
None of your friends
was just encouraging you to go?
I didn't get some ****, Jerry.
Don't worry about this marriage thing.
Just go ****.
No, I don't think
I would have listened to them
because I really wanted to be like,
I wanted to do it the godly way.
And now I would take that advice.
But before...
You wanted to settle down.
You wanted a home.
I wanted the married life.
I got you.
I always thought, you know,
I want to be married.
I want to be a wife.
But it's fine.
I'm single.
I'm happy.
It's working out well.
What would you tell God now then?
You said you would do that now.
So how would you rectify that with God?
I think I have a different relationship with God.
I feel like, you know what, God?
I know that you love me.
I know that you know my heart.
If I slip and I fall on somebody, then you are loving enough and you love me so much
that you're not going to confine me to the pit of hell if I make a mistake.
Before, I felt like it was very...
Because I used to be a Jehovah's Witness too. We talked about that.
And it's very black and white. You do something wrong
and you're going... That's it. Disfellowship.
You get disfellowshipped. Which I think I am disfellowshipped.
I'm not sure.
Just go and see if they talk to you. Go to one of the halls
and see if they talk to you. Have you ever told a Jehovah's Witness
when they're standing there with the watchtowers in the wake?
Because they're very nice people. If you go to them and you go,
I used to be a Jehovah's Witness. They like tense up.
They really tense up.
They act like you're going to try to
bring them over to your side.
When they come ring my bell, I'm going to be like,
you know, I used to be a Jehovah's Witness.
Yeah, they're going to leave quick.
Do you think there'll ever be a time when you and your ex could be
like have a conversation and just
put everything in the past and be cool?
If you stop writing open letters
to TMZ.
In his defense, that was a response.
No, it was no.
D.L. Hughley was the one that called him
a sorry ass. I didn't say anything.
I just made the joke. He didn't say to D.L.
I said, Steve Harvey said the same thing to me.
He didn't address the men.
He wrote the open letter to me.
I'm like, be a man and tell D.O. Hughley he is sorry.
I didn't think so. What did the open letter say?
It was saying, you know, you're
blocking me from getting a job in Hollywood.
But when I met you,
you weren't working at all.
And I don't have the powers to
block you from... I'm trying to
get a job in Hollywood. You got a lot.
You're doing good now. I'm trying to.
It's because, you know why? Because character
and integrity go a long way. That's a fact.
That's what it does. But I don't have the power
to block you. If I had the power,
I would get you a job so I wouldn't have
to pay all the child support. How much do you pay now?
$4,100 a month. It's about $4,100
every three years it goes up.
That's not as bad. Mel B is paying way more than me.
He's paying like $30,000 a month. I'm thankful it's not as bad. Mel B is paying way more than me. He's paying like $30,000 a month.
So my low, I'm thankful, is not
as bad. Was the $$$ ever worth it?
That much money to be paying a month?
I don't think we had sex once we got
married. Because I got married for the wrong reason.
So, you know,
I don't think it. Are you off marriage now?
You feel like, I don't want to go through that again?
Or you feel like, I'm hopeful one day?
I was off marriage. But then I think I'm okay. Like, you know, you don't want to go through that again? Or you feel like, I'm hopeful one day? I was off marriage.
But then I think I'm okay.
Like, you know, you got to have a good prenup.
I tell the ladies, get you a really good prenup.
Because that will protect your assets and stuff you want to do for your parents and your kids.
And I'm open to it.
But there's nobody there.
So, I'm good. What do you mean?
The world is full of penis.
I don't want penis.
Like, I'm not walking around on Times Square going,
where's the penis?
Give me the penis.
That's not what,
I'm not looking for that.
And that's not the first priority.
No,
not at all.
I want great conversation.
I want somebody
that's going to make me laugh.
I want somebody
that has a job
that loves,
that is king
in their territory.
You're not trying
to creep over the mind.
You know,
that's intelligent.
So you do want a man then?
Yeah,
but you were talking
about penis. Why, man? You know, penis is attached to men. See, that's intelligent. So you do want a man then? Yeah, but you were talking about penis.
Why, man?
You know,
penis are attached to men.
See, that's what you're thinking.
You're thinking with your penis.
Yeah, you want a man.
Yeah, like a full,
a fully formed guy.
With a partner.
I want like a partner.
But you're not,
you don't want to settle
is what you're saying.
I'm not trying to settle.
And I'm okay.
It's okay.
Ladies, it's okay to be single.
It's nothing.
People act like you're single.
There's something wrong with that.
Like you're unhappy.
Like you're just like,
ugh.
There's a lot of
unhappily married people and I'd rather be There's a lot of unhappily married people.
And I'd rather be happily single than unhappily married any day.
But you've got to tell the universe what you want.
You can't send mixed messages.
Well, I didn't.
I just said I'm open.
That's what I told the universe.
I'm open for what comes my way.
And I'm good.
Right.
Do you ever date outside your race?
You know what?
It's so funny.
I would like to try it because I've never done it.
I like black men.
Right.
Who would you date?
White?
Asian?
No, he probably
has to be Puerto Rican.
I need a white man
that's black.
He knows, like,
when I take my hair off,
it don't surprise him.
You like beards?
Beards?
I do love beards.
I do like beards.
We have a Puerto Rican
with a beard in the room.
I like Puerto Ricans.
Oh, well, go stop now.
Nah, he flirted with Cheryl Underwood.
He loves Cheryl, too.
Damn, you just like everybody.
Okay, that's not, I mean, and I'm not saying I'm bad, but you like everybody.
So everybody come in here.
He's for everyone.
You be trying to holler at him.
That's, you know, no.
I guess I don't know.
And that's not sexy because you're not making a stand.
Like, you don't commit.
You too wishy-washy. He's very wish you don't commit. You too wishy-washy.
He's very wishy-washy.
This morning, I was doing push-ups
and took a picture of my butt,
so you gotta...
Yeah, that's...
Your fluid flow all over the place.
That's not good.
Although, let me tell you something
about Sheryl Underwood.
She would rock you.
She'd tear you up.
She told me that already.
I'm gonna tell you that.
I'm gonna tell you that about Sheryl.
Sheryl would freaking...
Woo!
Sheryl got two in here.
Sheryl got drum and she got
my man Wax out there. At the same time, she'd tear
both of y'all up. Don't sleep on
Underwood, the Underwood lady. You
freaking come back, you won't have no beard.
I can smell
Infamil coming right off your neck right now.
Look like your braces just came off your teeth.
And that's nothing.
You don't even know what happened. Look.
You right for Cheryl Underwood. Before you know it, she happened. Look, you right for Sheryl Underwood.
Before you know it, she would have you butt naked,
just whimpering in a corner, whining.
Now don't move.
We got more with Sherry Shepard.
When we come back, it's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Sherry Shepard.
Charlamagne?
I always wondered, did you foresee yourself
having this much success after The View?
Or were you scared when it first came out?
I was terrified.
Because they was trying to get me back
and then I said I wanted to do my own talk show.
And then I knew I was
going through the divorce and I was like, uh-oh, this is about
to get nasty. I'm going to try to keep this job.
And then they released me from my contract and I
sat in front of the mirror and I was like, oh shoot,
what am I going to do?
Like, because I hadn't been in Hollywood so long because I was out here in New York.
And I said, I don't know if they know me.
And his little voice said, do you trust me?
And I said, nope.
Don't trust you at all, God.
And the voice said, I'm honest.
If nothing, I'm very honest with God.
Like, I told God I didn't think the celibacy thing was going to work.
And he's very nice.
You can talk to him.
And I said, no.
And the voice said, do you trust me a to him. And I said, no. And the voice said,
do you trust me a little bit?
And I said, a little bit.
And the voice said,
I told you to leave.
It was time to leave.
And I don't care.
You're going to leave.
And really within two weeks,
Will Packer called me
and Will Packer was like,
hey lady, I got a role
in Ride Along 2.
And then they called me on Broadway
and they said,
could you play the evil stepmother
to Kiki Palmer's Cinderella?
So I did a run on Broadway
and then I booked, I did Soul Man
with Cedric and Niecy and I just
never stopped working. So
I'm very thankful. I'm thankful that people
still like me. They still
want to work with me. That my funny
is still there. Did you read Ladies Who Punch?
I did not.
My mom was reading it on vacation. She liked it?
She said she couldn't believe that everybody had this much drama behind the scenes. She liked it? She liked it. She said she just couldn't believe
that everybody had this much drama
behind the scenes.
Oh, yes, a lot of drama.
I mean, I didn't have to read it
because I knew what went on
behind the scenes.
Of course, there's going to be drama.
Five women working together.
We went through our stuff.
We would argue.
We'd argue about who was talking,
who wasn't.
I remember one time Joy said to me,
girl, at the end of the day,
we'd go, take a little time
to enjoy the view.
And I would wave.
And Joy was mad at me because I kept stepping on her jokes but it was whoopie was joy and it was
me was three comics and i was trying to find my way in there and somebody said i think it was
barbara take a little time to enjoy the view and i was smiling joy went what the f**k are you doing
and i was like and you can just see my face drop like, bitch, what? It was crazy.
And we had it out.
And we had to come to an agreement of when I'm to lob the ball to Joy so she could do her joke, when I could do my joke.
It was like, you know, you had to find your way within this circle of women.
But I love Joy Bay Heart of Death.
We will shut a restaurant down with, you know, drinking.
And so, you know, it's bound to be stuff that politics.
No physical, right?
Nothing physical ever.
No, we never had anything physical.
I'm not going to fight.
Elizabeth Hasselbeck got mad at me.
She got upset at me one time
because I went off about John McCain.
And I think when I get mad,
my fingers start moving.
I'm a black woman.
My fingers started moving.
And I made Lizzie cry.
And I remember she said,
you know, I thought you were going to hit me.
And I said, Lizzie... And this is behind the scenes. And I said, girl,, I thought you were going to hit me. And I said, Lizzy,
and this was behind the scenes, and I said, girl,
am I going to mess up my whole career
to hit you? Like, my career would be gone.
I said, you know who thought I was going to hit them?
The girl that was sleeping with my husband.
Now she thought I was crazy bitch. I was going to hit her.
And you probably would. You didn't hit her?
No, we didn't fight. We actually
have a very cordial relationship. Really?
Yeah, because she has two children by my ex-husband, and I have a child.
And you have to love your child more than you hate the other parent.
Man.
So we kind of like, I sent her a Happy Mother's Day message, and she told me what a great mother I was.
So you like her more than your ex?
I love her more than my ex.
You don't ever get mad when you see her with a nice pair of shoes and a bag, and you know that's your $40-something, $100 a month child support?
No, that's a husband.
That's husband 1A. Oh, that's a husband. That's husband 1A.
I'm talking about the husband, the original husband.
I wish he would get a wife.
The husband 1A. I wish
he would get a wife and then she could
adopt his child and he could leave me alone.
He writing a letter right now.
He writing a letter right now to the DMC.
Jerry on Breakfast Club calling me a sorry ass.
And I'm not messing with him. I talk about him.
I don't mention his name, but he tried to do a reality show.
And in my integrity and character,
everybody who he tried to pitch this reality show called me
and said, yeah, ex-husband, trying to pitch a reality show.
And the log line was, I'm going to blow the lid off of my relationship
with Sherri Shepherd.
So he's still trying to work off of me.
He's still trying to get money off of me.
That would be a good reality show, though. He should write a book called Crankri Shepherd. So he's still trying to work off of me. Get some money off of you. He's still trying to get money off of me.
So it didn't... That would be a good reality show, though.
He should write a book called
Scrape the Shepherd.
What?
Scrape the Shepherd?
Scrape the Shepherd?
Let me tell you,
when I put him out
and I went out there with no wig on
and I had all my ludicrous braids in my hair
and I walked out there
and he was playing basketball
and I cursed...
You know, because you're a black woman.
I cursed him out so bad.
Anybody around me didn't hear nothing Jesus.
Nobody got saved that day with how I cursed him out.
Black woman, the view of my ass.
Oh, I was a girl.
You never heard.
My son dropped the basketball.
He was like, I never heard my mommy talk like this.
Because you got to curse somebody out before you put them out.
You don't just go, we're not working out.
That's the way white people do it.
You know, it's not working out.
I think we should separate.
No, when you're a black woman, you're like, get your mother.
You wasn't before.
I paid for all this.
Get my.
It's a lot of curse.
A lot of spit be flying out your mouth.
A lot of neck.
My neck hurts so bad after I finish.
Because it be moving.
Did you like filling in for Wendy Williams?
When I filled in for Wendy?
That was the only time in my career I was not nervous.
Really? I knew that that was,
I knew that I was, because I want my own talk show.
I love people, and I knew
when they asked me to do the panel, I said, nope.
You gotta believe in your words. I'm telling y'all listeners.
When they asked me to do the panel, I said, no, I'm not gonna do the panel.
I will only do Wendy's show if
you let me host it by myself. And they said,
no, we're not gonna let you do that. And I said, well then, you know,
don't call. But then they called me, and I said, I'll do it on Monday,
because that's when everybody watch, and Tuesday.
You got to give me two days.
And they did.
And it was the only time I wasn't nervous,
because I knew that that's what I'm supposed to be doing.
At some point, I'm supposed to have a talk show.
Was there a part of you that was like, I hope she don't recover?
No.
No, honestly, you know, I'm glad Wendy's getting her life back.
And even the boys, she say yeah I was hoping
She's like she's very honest
Yeah I really was hoping
Wendy was just like
Yeah
No
I happen to like Wendy
Like we're not friends
But what
Wendy's blessing
Is her blessing
She already gonna have
Her blessing
So I'm not
I don't operate
And that's why I needed
To leave the view
Because I said if I stay I'm gonna be I don't operate in it. That's why I needed to leave the view because I said, if I stay,
I'm going to be envious
of other actors who come.
The actress who comes
and talks about Brian Banks.
I am an actress.
I'm going to be sitting there
going,
what if I had done it?
I don't like being in that place.
Envy eats you up.
You hear that, Envy?
Not you, Envy.
I heard you pretty good.
Yeah, I was with my wife
last night.
But anyway, sorry.
But I don't fight me.
She said she heard you pretty good. I mean, she made her hurt my wife. And then I'm out in the street like this and my wife last night. But anyway, sorry. But I don't fight me. She said she heard you pretty good.
I mean, she made her in my wife.
I think I'm out in the street like this with my wife yelling.
Who knows?
Envy will eat you up.
I know, girl.
I know.
But that's a bad place to be in is in that place of envy.
And I know that what God has for me is going to come from me.
All right. well, it's
Sherri Shepherd. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
She's spilling the tea.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee
on The Breakfast Club.
So Snoop Dogg has a new song
called Let Bygones Be Bygones
and he's talking about not having any issues with anybody
and actually being really
cool with Suge Knight. Check it out.
I mean, you still got a good relationship with him today?
Me and Suge are cool as a mother. I'm cool with
Suge. I'm cool with Master P, Dr. Dre. I'm cool
with everybody. Yeah, I mean, how can you not be cool with Snoop?
But I had to go get that cool
with him. I had to go sit down with Suge.
Suge Knight.
Now, he also admits that, you know, Suge was doing some crazy-ish.
He admits all of that.
We know that.
He had to keep it real.
Check it out.
Check it out. Buzz did that. Caught that case, came out safe. Buzz did that. So through the ups and the downs, real ones know not to kick against when they down.
Especially when we was down.
At the beginning, pick music is up.
Gang bang on NY stages, hitting the zone.
Y'all remember that?
Yeah, he did some boyish.
I'm admitting that.
But coming at a real prick like he ain't done.
Especially when he helped the up and make one.
I mean, Snoop forgave him because he didn't want to carry that,
not to mention what revenge could Snoop seek on Suge?
I think life took care of that, right?
Yeah, he said, why kick somebody when they're down?
And he also said, this man changed my life.
We made history together.
Absolutely.
So that's his reflective track.
You got to let that hurt go.
Sometimes people do you wrong, and you may want to do something to them,
but sometimes you got to forgive them for yourself, which is something I'm working on.
Now, Snoop Dogg is also going to voice Cousin It in the new Addams Family movie.
So that should be exciting as well.
And you saw those lists that were circulating, the top 50 rappers of all time.
Snoop said the only list he cares about is the Forbes list, by the way.
All right.
Wendy Williams was on with Sway in the morning, and she talked about Kevin
Hunter and how she is
actually wishing him well and wants to be his friend.
There's no divorce papers
to be ready to be signed yet. Okay, so there's
no divorce papers. No, I
want a divorce like yesterday.
I want a divorce like
two months ago, three months ago, whenever
I found out four months ago. Okay.
I want a divorce, and I want to be friends with Kevin.
I mean, and not because we have a son, but because that was real love.
I still love him, just not in that way.
You know, but I still have love for him, and I wish him the best in his new life with his new family.
Okay.
All right.
And she goes on to say the rumors that she's going to be still working with her ex, Kevin Hunter.
She said this.
I did read that you would consider working with him again as a business manager.
Is that true?
The only business that he can manage right now is to sign some divorce papers.
I have a manager.
Get a job, Calvin.
All right.
That's what that means.
Okay. Go find another place of employment. All Calvin. All right? That's what that means. Okay?
Go find another place of employment, all right?
All right?
That gravy boat has sailed.
Is it a gravy boat or gravy train?
Gravy train.
That gravy train is taking off.
Boat, train, whatever.
Whatever it is.
That gravy train has sailed.
The gravy gone is what I'm trying to tell you.
You got the sauce.
All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
All right. Charlemagne. Yes Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right.
Charlemagne.
Yes.
Who you giving that donkey to?
You know, speaking of revenge, let's talk about why seeking revenge is always not the best thing.
Before after the hour, we'll talk about a young lady named Brandy.
Okay.
We'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
This don't be a donkey, because right now you want some real donkey shit.
It's time for Donkey of the Day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, you want some real donkey it's time for donkey of the day so if you
ever feel i need to be a donkey man hit it with the hero did she get donkey in the day please tell
me i have become donkey of the day at the breakfast club bitch you're a donkey yes donkey of the day
for thursday august 8th goes to a young woman named brandy yakima lassiter now i'm not gonna
lie i saw a few stories this morning uh and when i read what happened i said this has to be florida August 8th goes to a young woman named Brandi Yakima Lassiter. Now, I'm not going to lie.
I saw a few stories this morning, and when I read what happened,
I said, this has to be Florida.
But they both turned out to be Georgia.
I don't know what the hell y'all got going on,
but it really seems like y'all trying to snatch the crazy crown
from the Bronx and all of Florida.
Now, Brandi was on Facebook Live,
and her rant about having a virus went viral.
Not just any virus, the virus that causes AIDS, okay,
and interferes with the body's ability to fight infections.
You know the one I'm talking about, HIV.
See, I don't care what anyone says, hurt people hurt people.
And when you feel you have been hurt, when you're in some type of emotional pain,
all you end up doing is redistributing that pain to other people.
Unless, of course, you start seeing a therapist or some type of counselor
to get your mental health in order
and deal with that trauma.
And this young lady, Brandi, is absolutely passing that pain around
like a collection plate, all right?
But pain isn't the only thing Brandi is passing around
or at least trying to pass around.
Brandi wants folks to feel what she feels.
She wants people to feel the hurt that she feels, that she is feeling.
So she got on Facebook Live and said this.
I am HIV positive. that she feels, that she is feeling. So she got on Facebook Live and said this.
I am HIV positive.
Roy D. Roger A.
You HIV positive.
Jet F***.
You HIV positive.
The Montae F***.
You HIV positive.
The little bitch you f***ing.
She gonna be HIV positive.
Goddamn baby dad.
Tony F***.
You HIV positive. All y'all n****s down the f***. You HIV positive. Goddamn baby dad. Tone of ****. You HIV positive.
All y'all **** down the ****.
Hmm.
You HIV positive.
Now, Brandi is being investigated by the police for allegedly passing around those three letters that can send you to your final resting place because in Georgia, it is a felony to knowingly
transmit HIV.
See, this is what happens when you don't deal with your own hurt, when you seek revenge,
when you purposely go out of your way to harm someone,
all because you got your own issues that you have yet to deal with.
You end up ultimately hurting yourself.
Confucius once said,
before you embark on a journey of revenge,
dig two graves because one will be for you.
By the way, that's not even how HIV works, okay?
Just because you sleep with someone who has HIV,
even without a condom, doesn't mean you're going to automatically catch it, all right?
I did a little research this morning, and even without a condom, the risk from a single exposure is less than 1 in 300, okay?
The actual risk depends on a lot of factors.
The type of exposure, whether the other person is HIV positive, how high or low their viral load is, or the duration and roughness of the sex, okay?
If the partner is HIV positive,
then viral load is the most important factor, all right?
There was a partner study done
that reported zero HIV transmissions
after 900 couples had sex more than 58,000 times raw, okay?
Raw D, that means without condoms.
So, Brandy, you out here thinking you playing people,
and all you did was play yourself,
and I'm not gonna front. I feel sorry for her.
Okay, I watched that video and all I saw
was a woman who was emotionally and psychologically
traumatized, as I'm sure any
of us would be if we were diagnosed
with HIV, okay? Being diagnosed
with HIV is an extraordinarily stressful
event, I would think,
right? I could feel, you know, your
upset emotions. I could feel your anxiety.
I could feel your pain. And in fact, you don't feel safe.
But Brandy, you got to seek some healing and understand that you're not going through anything other people haven't gone through and are currently going through.
All right. Instead of trying to pass HIV around, you should seek out people who have been living with HIV for years.
Find out how they got through it. All right. You don't need a circle of revenge.
You need a circle of support. All right. Healing takes courage, and we all have courage,
even if we have to dig a little to find it, all right?
Please, Brandy, seek healing, not revenge,
because he who plots to hurt others
often hurts themselves.
Please let Remy Ma give Brandy Lasseter
the biggest hee-haw.
Hee-haw, hee-haw.
You stupid mother-----, you dumb.
What is this?
What's that? Okay, we have mother f***er. You dumb. What is this? What's that?
Okay, we have an update, guys.
Jesus Christ.
Suspect in viral video case claims not to have HIV.
She made video out of anger.
Oh.
Why would you do that?
Yeah, brand new.
She wasn't scared to ish out of her previous boyfriend.
Yeah, she told the police that she made the video because she was angry at the people she named.
She provided documentation of a blood test from 2018 that showed she was not HIV positive.
She told police she only said that because she was angry.
You said a blood test from 2018?
2018, that doesn't mean anything.
Nah, we need the one from yesterday.
That was last year.
Oh, yeah, you could still have it.
We don't know how late last year, though.
Could have been December.
You could get tested.
Estelle is...
I actually just did a whole panel on HIV and AIDS on Monday,
and you could even have gotten tested,
and if you had sex in the past couple of weeks,
it might not show up.
Either way, she says she don't got it,
but either way, what I just said during Don't Care Today applies.
All right, hurt people hurt people,
and Brandy needs healing.
And even reading this update,
it's clearly signs that she's a mentally unhealthy person.
Because why would you even play like that?
All this being said, I want to encourage everybody to go out there and get tested.
There you go.
And make sure you know your status,
because you can live a long and healthy life,
even if you are HIV positive.
The earlier that you know, the better.
That's right.
There's people that have gone on to live full and fruitful lives.
There were people at the event on Monday at Housing Works that have been HIV positive for 30 years
and are still looking healthy and well and taking care of themselves.
Okay.
Yeah, man.
A salute to everybody who goes out there and gets tested but never goes back for the results.
We see you.
Don't shout those people out.
That doesn't help the situation at all.
I'm saying that to encourage them to go back and get their results.
That's why I said it.
But now you can get your results right there on the spot.
No, anybody got time for that.
No, no, no, no, no.
I would never want that kind of test.
That's what I do when I get tested.
I get my results right on the spot.
Come back two weeks later?
I think about that.
I think about, like, back in the day when I got HIV tests,
and that two weeks gave you time to prepare.
Like, you write down your list,
and you write down everybody that you've been with.
You know what I'm saying?
I need to know right away.
I would not.
Listen, first of all,
thank God I'm married
and don't have to worry
about that kind of stuff,
but I would never want to know
right there on the spot.
Hell no.
Need some time.
That's better to know.
Right there and there.
Right there and there?
Yes, I'd rather know right...
We actually do HIV testing
at the juice bar, too,
twice a year.
That two weeks
where you would have to wait?
Yeah, by the way,
those people who fainted...
You can do nothing.
Those people who fainted
at the juice bar,
they got their results right there.
It's not funny. Alright.
Thank you for that donkey today, man.
Next, ask Yee.

so I can drink it and... We have Seamoss.
There you go.
As soon as you get that result, Seamoss will take it right out you.

Well, that's when the real magic happens.
So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation

Get some real advice with Angela Yee.
It's 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 Renee.
Hey, Renee.
What's your question for Yee?
Okay, so about three years ago, I got a Facebook message from
this girl claiming to be my sister
and my father passed away when I was
younger, so he passed away when I was three.
My mom and him had like an abusive relationship
so it wasn't a
good thing with my mom. So anyway, the
little girl reached out to me. She told me she was my little sister. I asked
my mom about it. She completely freaked out.
She told me to block the little girl. Of course
I didn't. I talked to her and I learned that it was my sister and ever since then we've been close
I we linked up she's exactly like me um but now when it comes to my mom uh my mom won't
come around her at all okay she won't let any of my other siblings come around her she if it
involves anything with my sister like I'm supposed to get married soon my mom won't let any of my other siblings come around her. If it involves anything with my sister, like I'm supposed to get married soon,
my mom won't come with my sisters there.
Wow.
And I don't understand how to deal with that.
And, oh, I don't want to cry.
But it really upsets me.
And I want everybody to come together because her family embraces me very well.
Right.
And, you know, it's a difficult situation.
And I do know several people who have had to deal with finding out they had a sibling
and the mother is not too excited about that because you have to have some empathy for the
fact that she went through a hurtful situation. This brings back all kinds of pain for her and
this might take some time for her to be able to handle and that's something that you have to
really be patient with. In the meantime, you are definitely as an adult able to reconnect with somebody who's your
sister, who's an innocent child. But I think you really have to be patient with your mom
and continue your relationship with your sister. But it might mean that your mom has to go
independently from you and speak to somebody, speak to a therapist to understand why she feels
the way that she does. And you also have to be understanding. I mean, imagine how she feels with she had a bad situation with your father.
It might be things that never got resolved.
This is hurtful for her because she probably is also embarrassed
that there's a child that maybe she did or didn't know about,
but you guys definitely didn't know about it.
And so for her, that might be something that she just wants to block out.
And it is something that she will have to deal with on her own terms.
But I would encourage you to encourage her to get some professional help
and to understand this has nothing to do with how she feels about you.
This has nothing to do with an innocent child because she did nothing wrong.
This is clearly her feelings towards her father.
And this is just something that is a trigger for that.
Please keep us updated.
Absolutely. All right.
Ask Yee. 805585-1051.
If you need relationship advice,
hit Yee now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Get some real advice
with Angela Yee.
It's Ask Yee.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
Oh, hey. Hey, this is Deshawn. Deshawn,'re in the middle of Ask Ye. Hello, who's this? Oh, hey.
Hey, this is Deshawn.
Deshawn, what's up, bro?
What's your question for you?
Well, good morning.
I have an issues problem with my wife and I.
We've been married going on four years now.
But we've been together and all, I say, 10 years.
But before then, before we got married, me and my step-sisters just
done some things. But now...
What's done some things?
Well, you know, just kids around, you know,
she's a little oral.
A little oral? Did he say his sister?
Yeah. He said with his sister? No, step-sister.
Step-sister.
That's still your sister, bro. Yeah, that's a little crazy, but
go ahead.
We are like the same age.
We have not been... She has not been my step-sister. That's still your sister, bro. Yeah, that's a little crazy, but go ahead. We are like the same age. Well, no.
We have not been...
She has not been my step-sister.
Same age.
That's very important to know.
Where you from, bro?
I'm just curious.
Where you from?
Oh, I'm from Louisiana.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, so you used to kiss your step-sister.
Whoa.
No, one time.
We was riding.
She found out because I came up and told her.
But how about this? None of the things I told her this, now she come out, I came up and told her. But how about this?
Now the thing, I told her this.
Now she come out, she tells me she done something with her friend.
And they're saying that.
So I'm like, but I know how women are.
You know, now she throwing all this madness at me.
She still come about.
She feel like she can't trust me.
I swear, you know, I promise on my soul, I'm not doing anything, you know, to jeopardize our marriage and our family.
And the problem I'm having right now, you know, how can I get over, you know, how she keep on trying, you know, she's breaking me down every time.
Right.
She's still angry about it.
She has trust issues with you because that's somebody that, and I'm sure in her head she's trying to process it
because really that is like your family.
No, no, no, no.
She ain't family no more.
None of that happened, no.
This is crazy.
So you haven't seen your step,
you don't see your stepsister at all anymore?
No, I have not seen that girl since that day.
This happened like five, six years ago.
And how long has this been going on that you told your wife and she's got issues?
How long ago did you tell her?
And it still is.
So for three years later, she still got problems with you.
It comes up.
I'm going to be honest with you, Deshawn. We're watching a movie or something like that. She keeps thinking about me. I get tired of that.
I'm going to be honest with you, Deshawn.
It does take some time for women to get over things.
And as time goes by and as you continue to be a good man, that trust does rebuild because, unfortunately,
it can take just one second to break somebody's trust
and a whole lot of years to build it back up.
Okay.
Yeah, you're right.
Because she was trying to say,
you know, I don't show anger,
same as, you know, she showed me anger,
trust this dude, you know, what she done with her.
So she wants you to be mad at her as well.
Yeah, but I understand that.
I have her, I got her, now she's going to me.
I'm not stunned what happened in the past
before I met
cause she said that
to try to hurt you
or something
yeah that's what I feel like
but you know
I just also
y'all have to
what is going on here
I have no idea man
Deshawn it sounds like
y'all need to get to the root
of some other issues
that you might have
like incest
like maybe she feels like
you don't care about her enough
maybe she doesn't feel like
you're showing enough emotion
and she's trying to evoke that from you.
Right.
You know, but I will say it's fortunate.
I think that as time goes by, time does heal all wounds.
So as time goes by, then she'll bring it up less and less
and might not, you know, be completely not brought up,
but things should get better as you continue to be a good person,
a good husband, a good man.
I can understand why it would be troubling to her
that you kissed your stepsister
because that's a little weird.
That's nasty, bro.
But as long as...
And I think you also need to not downplay it
and also acknowledge that it was something
that was a little bit off.
How old were you when you kissed your sister?
I was 21.
Right.
Yeah, 21.
She was 20.
I mean, let's be clear.
It could be worse.
He could have had sex with his cousin, his sister.
You know what I'm saying?
Ended up having some little ninja turtles.
So all he did was kiss.
But don't ever downplay that to your woman.
This could be real brother and sister blood biological action happening.
Right.
Just always acknowledge you're right. I was
wrong. I don't know what I was thinking. You are
absolutely right.
My issue is this.
I understand nothing this man is saying.
Alright, bro. Well, bro, stop kissing your sister.
You're not going to kiss her no more, right?
Y'all wild.
Black men don't cheat. Not even with sisters.
Hey, it's no judgment here.
Black siblings don't cheat with each other. Okay. That's what's no judgment here. Black siblings don't cheat with each other, okay?
You guys are ruining it.
It's no judgment.
He ruined it.
It is just his stepsister, though.
That's still not right, bro.
Stepsister.
Like I said, Deshaun, do not downplay the situation to your wife, okay?
Acknowledge it.
2021.
Acknowledge it.
That's his sister, bro. Acknowledge that it was wrong. At 21. They just met. Okay? Acknowledge it. They did oral. Acknowledge it. That's his sister, bro.
Acknowledge that it was wrong.
At 21.
It means nothing.
Don't act like it's not a big deal.
It's not.
All right.
Okay.
Well, thank you.
All right.
You're welcome.
All jokes aside,
you met your stepsister
at 21 years old.
He didn't meet her at 21.
He said they kissed at 21.
That's when they kissed.
They didn't meet then.
How long ago?
How long did they know each other?
That's been his stepsister.
It wasn't like they just met.
See, that's the question we should have asked.
What if they just became stepsisters?
Have you ever kissed your stepsister, bro?
I don't have a stepsister.
Thank God.
You don't think there's anything wrong with it.
It's not blood.
It's not blood.
Bro, talk about, talk about, talk about.
First of all, we didn't ask that question.
We should have asked that question.
What if they just got,
the marriage or whatever just happened,
they've known each other for two years,
they're 20, 21 years old,
so they're only stepbrother, stepsister by law.
And then they're attracted to each other?
That's not illegal?
How?
That's a little weird, bro.
That's a little weird.
You have a stepbrother?
Why would I have a stepbrother?
I'm not asking.
I don't have no stepnoth.
No stepnoth?
Mm-mm.
I mean, I think it would be odd if I kissed my...
I don't have a stepsister, but if I kissed her,
I think that would be kind of odd.
I got oral from her.
You got oral from her?
They just met.
So they're having a 21. Well, clearly his wife has a got oral from her. They just met. So it happened at 21.
Well, clearly his wife has a problem with it.
And that's what the real issue is.
That's what the problem is because he cheated.
And that's what the real issue is.
She can't get over it.
All right.
Well, keep it locked.
We got rumors on the way.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Lil Boosie.
Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The rumor report.
Gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's the rumor report.
The Breakfast Club.
Yes, so Boosie Badass, he was on Vlad TV,
and he talked about beating his kids as far as discipline.
And here's what he had to say.
You know, I chew them out in front, they other brothers and sisters, and they don't like that.
Other than that, if they out of line, I beat their ass.
Like, I beat my kids' ass.
And sometimes it falls back on me because I play with my kids a lot.
So, you know, I'm a fun daddy, but I discipline them too.
How badly?
I can't really talk about
how bad I beat them.
You know,
I don't beat them too bad,
but I beat their ass,
you know.
I give them a good
old-fashioned ghetto whooping.
Well, I'm sure
we can all attest
to the fact that
we've all gotten
beat-ins growing up
in this room.
Yeah, I don't beat
my kids, though.
I mean,
I be wanting to beat
my second daughter.
She's so goddamn bad,
but I don't,
you know what I mean?
Only because I don't feel
like beat-ins ultimately did anything for me. When you say beat-in, are you talking about my second daughter. She's so goddamn bad. But I don't. You know what I mean? Only because I don't feel like beatings
ultimately did anything
for me.
When you say beating,
are you talking about
beating or popping?
Either or.
I'm beating like,
get the belt
and I'm going to beat you
with the belt.
Oh, no, that's a little different.
I don't beat my kids.
I'll pop them.
I'll pop a hand
or something like that,
but I'm not beating my kids.
My daughter ain't even scared of that.
I tried to flex on her
the other day.
I'm going to get the belt.
She was like, what?
She's like, I'm going to get my belt.
No, she don't even know
what I mean by that
because I never beat her
with a belt.
She sounded stupid. She's like, I'm going to get the belt. She, she don't even know what I mean by that. Because I never beat her with a belt. She sounded stupid.
She's like, I'm going to get the belt.
She's like, why?
Are you going somewhere?
You about to put your pants on?
What do you think about other people beating their kids, though?
If you see somebody beating their kids.
That ain't my business.
Yeah, it's not my business.
I mean, I got beat as a kid.
You got beat.
Charlamagne got beat.
You know, we turned out to be good kids.
What if you see it in public and it looks pretty bad, like abuse?
What's the borderline there?
You better call the police and mind your damn business.
You interfering with people's children.
If you think it's that serious and you call the police,
you might intervene and be like, yo, man, what's up?
Why you doing that?
But yeah, that's that person's child.
And also people, you know, it's hard being a parent.
Like you're only going to teach what you were taught.
You understand what I'm saying?
So if that's how you were raised, you know, getting beat,
you're going to do the same thing because you think that's how it's supposed to be.
Mm-hmm. All right. well, I know for myself,
those beatings didn't really help me as a kid. It didn't
prevent me from doing things because I was scared
to get a beating. I just said, I'm going to do this. I'm going to get a beating.
All beatings did was make me think of my parents were crazy
as I got older because I'm sitting here thinking now about how
my daddy beat me with an extension cord and made me go take a
bath. That is a Wu-Tang torture tactic. You hear me?
Alright, now Iggy Azalea
has said that she has gotten mental health treatment.
She actually went on a mental health retreat, and that's what got her back on her feet.
She said her management team staged an intervention.
She told us that previously and said that she needed to get professional help.
So she told Cosmopolitan Magazine that she spent two weeks opening up to a therapist,
talking about everything and about launching into the public eye so quickly at a young age and how
overwhelming it was for her. So she was just
emotionally exhausted. I love it.
Drop on the Clues Bonds for Iggy Azaria, Investing in Mental
Wealth. I actually was about to post this video that I saw
Wale talking about where he says record deals
should come with mental health insurance.
Alright, now Netflix... Don't even come with no insurance.
How about that? That's a fact. Some type of insurance.
Now Netflix has inked an
over a deal and that's with the creators of the Game of Thrones,
David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.
And I know, Envy, you should be excited about that
because you're the Game of Thrones fan in here.
So what are they going to do?
New episodes, a prequel?
What are they going to do?
After, or is it just the old episodes?
No, they're just the creators of Game of Thrones.
Oh, okay.
So I guess they're going to be doing some more things.
Okay.
Now let's talk about Tucker Carlson on Fox.
The Fox News host has suddenly gone on vacation.
Now he made these comments on Fox News.
But the whole thing is a lie.
If you were to assemble a list, a hierarchy of concerns or problems this country faces,
where would white supremacy be on the list?
Right up there with Russia, probably.
It's actually not a real problem in America. White supremacy, that's the problem. This is a hoax,
just like the Russia hoax. It's a conspiracy theory used to divide the country and keep a
hold on power. Yes, he said white supremacy is a hoax and not a real problem. So now there's this
whole hashtag for fire, Tucker Carlson. He came back to work and announced that he would be taking
a break. Check it out.
By the way, I am taking several days off, headed to the wilderness to fish with my son, catch some book trout.
Politics is important.
Fishing with your son is sometimes more important, so I'm doing it.
Well, that's what they do over there.
Something controversial happens, and they go on vacation just like Bill O'Reilly did after his sexual harassment settlements were disclosed.
Only thing is he did not return from that vacation.
Here's the thing with a guy like Tucker Carlson.
To him, white supremacy is a hoax because he doesn't see it.
He's on the other side.
So when you're on the other side, you don't see the issues that other people deal with.
And you will always act like it's not happening because it's people that look like you that are to blame for it.
So he doesn't see none of those KKK marches as much as he's in the news.
He hasn't seen what happened in Charleston. None of
that. He doesn't blame that on white supremacy.
If you watch Fox News and they put it, they
always blame that on other things.
Even though Dylann Roof said what he said,
they'll act like that's an isolated incident.
Or they'll act like the KKK is an isolated group.
They don't act like it. When he talks about white supremacy, he's talking about
as a whole, holding people back
as a whole in America. That's what he's
denying, which is false.
All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.

And The Breakfast Club, we'll be in Chicago for a little bit.
We're flying there for a couple of hours and flying right back.
A couple of hours for real.
Yeah, a couple of hours.
We're going to be there so fast.
We're going to be there so quick.
I don't even know why MV shouted it out.
I was supposed to go yesterday, but my flight got canceled.
So I'm sure the airport is probably going to be a mess because a lot of flights got canceled.
Really?
Yeah.
All right.
They said like 500 flights got canceled.
If the flight gets canceled today, you guys hold it down, okay? Shut up. It's not going to. And I just want to
shout out to Kevin Durant. There's a big article on him for Yahoo. He's finally speaking out. This
is his first time speaking publicly since he left the Golden State Warriors and came to our Brooklyn
Nets. And, you know, he's not blaming the Warriors for his injury because some people are saying the
Warriors mishandled the injury, but he said it wasn't their fault. He said, I heard the Warriors for his injury. Because some people are saying the Warriors mishandled the injury, but he said it wasn't their fault.
He said, I heard the Warriors
pressured me into getting back.
Nobody ever said a word to me during rehab.
As I was coming back, it was only me.
And he goes on to talk about
how exciting it was for him to come to the Nets.
And it was always going to be the Nets,
never the Knicks,

You know, we was talking about revenge during Donkey of the Day,

The best revenge is to have enough self-worth not to seek it
because truly the best revenge is to show them
that your life is getting
better after they're gone breakfast club bitches you're all finished or y'all done
