We were in the car, like a Rolling Stone came on, and he said, there's a line in there about your mother. And I said, what? What I would do if I didn't feel like I was being accepted is choose an identity that other people can't have. I knew something had happened to me in the middle of the night, but I couldn't hold on to what had happened. These are just a few of the moving and important stories

on my 13th season of Family Secrets. Listen to Family Secrets on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I knew it was a bomb the second that it exploded. I felt it ripped through me. In season two of RipCurrent, we ask, who tried to kill Judy Berry and why. They were climbing,

trees, and they were sabotaging logging equipment in the woods. She received death threats before the bombing. She received more threats after the bombing. I think that this is a deliberate attempt to sabotage our movement. Episodes of Rip Current Season 2 are available now. Listen on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm a homeguard that knows a little bit about everything in everybody. You know if you don't lie about that, right?

So over the weekend, I went to Power Sessions, which is a concert presented by Power 1051, which is the radio station that the Breakfast Club is on here in New York City. now this concert featured performances by my girl little the brook don't play with her don't play with her zetti will also took the stage my first time seeing him perform in person

i keep saying this because to see new artists um in this ticot era in this social media era that you know we we all internet kids um so to so to see artists even if they don't have like a full show set developed but just know how to work the crowd and get the crowd going and interact with the crowd and own the stage should be honest with you very few far in between um so to see him perform and do just that was very proud of him he took the stage uh he brought out for one brought out some people for one is another artist here from new york that new york goes crazy for we also had uh g herbo hit the stage now when gherbo hit the stage because we were streaming live on the breakfast club's twitch account and we were taking you guys as much as we could into the actual pit so you's

could see the performances go check that out i hosted that stream if you did not see it it is on the breakfast club a m on twitch and make sure you guys are following me on touch as well too i'm la rosa on twitch and we're going to start streaming on the weekends but we were trying to do as much as we could but we missed gherbo's performance because we couldn't get our like connection right like we were lagging our rify was too many people because they're still producing digitally coverage of the show outside of what we were doing for the breakfast club um there in the venue So we miss G Herbo on the Twitch But I do have some content of him

That I'll be dropping on social Make sure you guys are following me Lauren La Rosa everywhere in on Twitch as well And then after G. Herbo My girl Mariah the scientist pulled up Baby for the lover girls Now this was an iconic moment because I got to introduce Mariah the scientist

With Angela Yee and Angie Martinez y'all Oh my god before we went on stage I was like I'm living a dream right now I literally said that to them like oh I'm living a dream right now And then Mariah the scientist comes on stage. And when I tell y'all, baby, that was her mother effing show. And y'all know I don't even cuss. Okay, I try to refrain from those type of words, especially here on the podcast,

because I know I got members of all types of communities listening from the church to the club couch, okay? Everybody pulls up for the latest. But let me tell you all something. Mariah, the scientist, owned that show. I mean, she's such a sweetheart. She didn't even have to sing her song. The crowd was going word for word with her. And it was pretty dope, too, because I'd actually gotten a chance to meet Mariah to scientists earlier that morning.

I did a Santa Claus, like, toy giveaway and a clothing drive for the community in Jersey at a boys and girls club over there. Shout out to the Boys and Girls Club of Patterson, New Jersey, and all the amazing team that I got to meet there. We got to treat them to this concert as well, too. they were able to come in and see all of the talent and the acts take a day off of all of the community work that they do but yes it was amazing to get to meet her get to kind of see her energy her spirit which was very like she's so chill like she is literally the definition of a southern bill i thought she was chill in the morning when we were doing our give back because she said she had just landed off of a flight didn't want to be late so she came straight there barely even dressed um and i know she was going to sing you know she's singing live

that evening so I'm like okay sis is preserving her voice she's just actually like a very soft-spoken sweet girl like I love that for her it made me even more sad though to think about a lot of the things that we've seen her go through in her relationship with young thug over this year because just in me you know you meet people and you're like wow this is a good person like their heart is good the interactions that I had with her and we were only at the boys and girls club for a you know a few hours, but literally, that rang true when I met her. But she shut it down. Shout out to Marita Scientists for coming out to the show as well.

And then the show closed out with Cash Cobain, who brought base swag on the stage. And, of course, they took you all the way through all of their hits that have been ringing like crazy in New York and all over this year. So it was a good time. Again, you know, check out my social media, Lauren the Rosa everywhere. If you want to check out some of those performances and moments from the show, we were also live on the Breakfast Club. Twitch. So I'm feeling good. I kicked off my week basically doing that because that started Saturday. So kind of work started for me Saturday. Sunday, it snowed here in New York. And I was just home prepping for the show. And in prepping for the show, I got a chance to watch the Kanye West

in Whose Name Documentary. Hey, everyone. It's me, Katie Couric. Did you know that I recently joined Substack?

I knew it was a bomb the second that it exploded. I felt it ripped through me with just a force more powerful and terrible than anything that I could describe. In season two of Rip Current, we ask, who tried to kill Judy Berry and why? She received death threats before the bombing. She received more threats after the bombing. The man and woman who were heard had planned to lead a summer of militant protest against logging practices in Northern California. They were climbing trees and they were sabotaging logging equipment in the woods. The timber industry, I mean, it was the number one industry in the area, but more than it was the culture.

It was the way of life. I think that this is a deliberate attempt to sabotage our movement. Episodes of Rip Current Season 2 are available now. Listen on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. For 25 years, I've explored what it means to heal, not just for myself, but alongside others. I'm Mike De La Rocha. This is Sacred Lessons, a space for reflection, growth, and collective healing. What do you tell men that are hurting right now?

Everything's going to be okay on the other side, you know, just push through it. And, you know, ironically, the root of the word spirit is breath. Wow. Which is why one of the most revolutionary acts that we can do as people just breathe. Next to the wound is their gifts. You can't even find your gifts unless you go through the wound. That's the hard thing you think, well, I'm going to get my guess. I don't want to go through all that.

You've got to go through the wounds you're laughing. Listening to other people's near-death experiences, and it's all they say. In conclusion, love is the answer. Listen to sacred lessons as part of the Maikultura podcast network, available on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Hi, I'm Radhdi Dvlukaya, and I am the host of a really good cry podcast. This week, I am joined by Anna Runkle, also known as the crappy childhood fairy, a creator, teacher, and guide helping people heal from the lasting emotional wounds of unsafe or chaotic childhoods.

We talk about how the things we went through when we were younger can still show up in our adult lives, in our relationships, our reactions, even in the way we feel, in our own bodies. And Anna opens up about her own story, what helped her notice the patterns she was stuck in and how she slowly started teaching her body that it is safe now. So when I got attacked, it was very random.

Four guys jumped out of a car and just started beating me and my friend. And they broke my jaw on my teeth, I was unconscious. Then I woke up and I screamed. And I screamed because even though I didn't know who I was or where I was, something in me was just like, hold on, wait, they could kill me and I'm not gonna let that happen.

I'm not gonna let that happen. and I'm going to get through this, and I did. Listen to a really good cry on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Hey, I'm Kelly, and some of you may know me as Laura Winslow. And I'm Telma, also known as Aunt Rachel. If those names ring a bell, then you probably are familiar with the show

that we were both on back in the 90s called Family Matters. Kelly and I have done a lot of things and played a lot of roles over the years, but both of us are just so proud to have been part of Family Matters. Did you know that we were one of the long, running sitcoms with the black cast. When we were making the show, there were so many moments filled the joy and laughter

and cut up that I will never forget. Oh, girl, you got that right. The look that you all give me is so black. All black people know about the look. On each episode of Welcome to the Family, we'll share personal reflections about making the show. Yeah, we'll even bring in part of the cast and some other special guests to join in the fun and spill some tea.

Listen to Welcome to the Family with Telma and Kelly on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Now, this documentary has, it was already released. It released in theaters some time ago, like some months ago, in AMC theaters with this director who, you know, the conversation around him has been the fact that at 18 years old with no real experience outside of just like school and figuring things out, he was given the opportunity. opportunity to shadow Kanye West for two years because Kanye wanted to do a documentary all about his mental health and the stigmas around it and showing people, you know, that this is, you know, you got to love people through this basically and kind of way he goes through his challenges as an artist, a father, a husband, and just all of the things, um, dealing with his mental health struggles. Um, now, they asked me this morning on the breakfast

club whether his doc was authorized and I know that the filming of Kanye West. was authorized because he's literally talking to the camera talking about you know how the through line and telling the story would be but there are some reports on sources i remember us weekly did a story on sources that Kanye west although it was authorized to have been recorded there were issues because he didn't have full editor control um but we haven't heard anything from him on this doc since its release um and y'all know he's been kind of out the way but there were parts of the documentary that i was just like i'm watching them like oh my god i can't even believe that like something like this is being recorded so conge west is

headed to the white house to me trump you guys remember he famously went to the white house to have that conversation with trump wearing the maga hat and on his way into the white house he calls jared kushner who's a part of you know the trump administration to make sure that he is safe walking and and the reason why this like struck me because i'm like for someone who you know mentally kind of goals ending out of whether his decision making is tracking and making sense for his day-to-day life Kanye West was very well aware of the fact that that had made him a target and he still decided to go forward with a lot of the things we watched him do after that let's take a listen sir there's Jared Kushner that wants to speak to you okay that's fine no I need to go the exact way

that a foreign dignitary would go that's the only way I'm going to go and I have to go the exact way that a foreign dignitary rule. That's the only way I'm gonna go in. Wait, wait a second, listen to me. I'm not gonna step outside. I'm not gonna put my life in danger. I put my life in danger by wearing the hat and I need to be loved and respected as such

because it could be someone out there that could be trying to take a shot of me. There's people who potentially wanna kill me for wearing this hat. I have the hat on as we speak. And we need me because if I get killed from wearing the hat in front of the White House, you're not gonna win you.

in any midterms and I can listen listen finish listening to me and hear so then after this moment and then you know the white house moment happens again all of this stuff is some years ago right so the white house moment happens with Kanye when he's in the car kimp kardashian calls him um and i mean she is in tears just talking about what the consequences of his actions in the political space could mean for her their family but for him let's take a listen I just it's like I can't sleep I've been crying all day it's just this bad dream that's not ending you're losing everyone around you is like there's a way to talk about what you feel well who's everyone who's no who's everyone around me tell me who everyone is I'm just saying people in the music business people in the I don't care about the music business I don't care about the work field this I'm in a slave business I'm a slave to university So what are you talking about? Of course they're losing.

Just because you have a job and you work hard doesn't mean you're a slave. That's demeaning. And I'm not about burning bridges with companies. Yeah. You're going to wake up one day and you're going to have like nothing because no one's going to, you know. No, never, never tell me I'm going to, no, never tell me I'm going to wake up one day and have nothing. Never put that into the universe. This documentary, you know, it is very, it's hard to watch because it is very invasive.

there's like arguments with you know Kim Kardashian even some of his family members and you just kind of see the sporadic behavior that is caused by the mental health issues that he is dealing with um you also see why it could potentially I mean I don't know where he is with um you know maintaining taking his medicines and different things today in 2025 but you see during this time why things could have been difficult um not even could have but were difficult for people in his life, including some family members, Kim, just anybody that was in his life because he was so dead set on not taking medicines and working through all of the sporadic decisions he was making and, you know, deciding to move back home to Chicago.

Kim found out about that, literally, from the Internet, she says, in this documentary, just different things that have happened. And it just made me, you know, think about even just in the news and in the media covering some of these moments, how much on. bonus do we put on him and you know just wanting to cause conversation and because there was a bit of that I did get a bit of that from this of like you know he knows what he's doing you know he's a megastar he's been here done that right but then also too there are moments where it's like you know he loves his wife at the time um which was Kim Kardashian then there are family members like there's like a cousin of his that is

you know with him as he's making some decisions when they're on like a international trip and it's like you know he loves these people you know he loves you know his art and everything he's creating but everything he's doing in response to it is tearing it down so then that's when the mental health part of it comes in and it's like for people in his life it's hard because it's like you're not dealing with him all the time you're dealing with the illness that he is dealing with right and how well that is or is not managed um and he's talked about not wanting to take medicines for various reasons, including how they make him feel when he's trying to create. So it's just, you know, it was a very tough watch for that instance, especially if you are

a Kanye West fan. But I think if the goal is to expose people to the reality and the rawness of, you know, people who deal with mental health issues on a daily while also dealing with real life, it definitely did that. It definitely made me think about the conversations I have about. Kanye West and the things that he even I thought back to the mayback and Kim on um Kim on um call her daddy podcast and her talking about him giving away his maybacks and I think she tried her best to explain you know how difficult things were because his behaviors

had begun to change as his mental health issues really set in but I don't even think she did the best job explaining it there I think people picked it up as if he was just this like crazy and I don't mean crazy to like down people dealing with mental health I mean it like this sporadic person who just has horrible decision making and then you watch this doc and it's like oh no it's so much deeper than that um so yeah I mean I don't know how many people in 2025 honestly want to even care enough to humanize Kanye West because of some of the things that he's done and he said and all the ups and downs he's taking fans through and the people through and all of that but it did it for me for sure um and I and I and

I was at TMZ when he did the, you know, slavery as a choice conversation and seeing his sporadic personality change in real life did that as well. But seeing more of it here and knowing that this was such a constant thing with people really close to him, definitely makes you put things into a perspective a lot, a whole lot differently.

that broke Sunday here in New York City. So Singer Tray Songs was arrested for a saw after allegedly punching a New York nightclub employee in the face earlier this month. So this went day. earlier this month earlier in December December 4 is what the report state and they alleged that this happened after the employee told him that the the spot that he was at the club he was at was closing now the reason why so he saw a judge on Sunday for this but

the reason why he was in police custody Sunday and I talked about this this morning on the breakfast club but I have a bit more clarity since speaking to you know sources close to Tray Songs and further getting information following a statement I received from Tray Song's attorney. So from what I am told, right, Trey Songs was at a different nightclub called Mirror here in New York City over the weekend. I am told that there was an alleged altercation that happened. I'm told that there was a party involved outside of Tray Songs.

So it was like, you know, Tray Songs and his people. and there was a party that they got into it with from what I'm told there's allegations of a gun being pulled at some point because there was a big fight that ensued and there was a bunch of damages to this local lounge just like a hookah lounge so because of the fight you know things were broken there are allegations of chairs and different things hookah different things being broken because of the fight

at some point when this physical altercation occurs I am told that there's an alleged gun that was shown, which is, you know, it made everything even worse. So they made the fight and everything even worse. Once everything calmed down and the parties were broken up, I'm told that Tray Song's offered to pay for the damages that were done and tried to explain kind of what happened. And I'm being told, you know, trying to explain that he was like defending himself a bit.

But at one point, the club owner was okay to just allow him to cover damages and move on. But then police were caught and he was arrested. I did ask what was this issue even about like what was so upsetting that you are fighting at because you know at this point it's wee hours of the morning you're fighting wee hours of the morning in the club you're not out having a good time you're supposed to be you know drinking having a good time with your people and from what I'm told um it was it's alleged that there was a woman who wanted to join Trace's like party that he was partying with so you know his area where he was wanted to join that and there another group of people who

who she had formerly been pardoning with had an issue with that from what I'm told. And these allegations I'm told are what spent into this big situation, altercation, that led to him getting arrested. When he was placed into cuffs and arrested Sunday, they then saw, you know, that there was, that he had also had to face charges for an altercation that happened, you know, a few weeks earlier in a nightclub in New York City. so he saw a judge he was released on his own recognits and he has to go back to court later in February now if I'm Trey songs at this point not even because of this incident because there's been so many other alleged incidents I probably would be staying my my behind home at this point like I just would I feel like the easiest way to not get

into anything is to not be around for nothing which is a horrible life to have to live but But, you know, in the statement that I received from his attorney, and I read that statement to you guys, one of the things that they pointed out was that they believe that Trace Songs as a public figure is often treated as a target for instigation in pursuit of headlines or financial gain. His attorney says, we are confident that the facts will speak for themselves. If it's to that point where I'm having to say that multiple times after multiple allegations and I'm just staying home, I am. Like, I really just am because nothing's going to happen here. But he's going to go back to court, even if this is thrown out, the headline of him being arrested and, you know, all of the allegations is always going to be way bigger than the follow-up.

If I'm being honest with you guys, I would just stay home. Like, I honestly would at this point. And, I mean, Trace-on, put out some new music. Stay home, put out the music. Stay out the way, work. Or also, too, I mean, you could do your own private situation. I mean, no, because then allegations come from that, too. I don't know.

It's the ladies with Lauren the Rosa. All I know is what I reported to y'all. I don't know how people should live their lives. At this point, 2025 is a different time. It is. But I always appreciate you guys being right here with me to talk all about it. My low riders, at the end of the day, you guys can be anywhere with anybody having conversations about these things,

which y'all choose to be right here with me. And I am so appreciative of you guys for that. My low riders, I will see you in my next. episode. Hey everyone, it's me, Katie Couric. Did you know that I recently joined Substack? Very exciting. It's where I'll be sharing my unfiltered conversations
