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.

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.

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm talking right now. You're about to experience a morning show unlike any of you.

Shout out to the Breakfast Club. I hope to see y'all every morning. What you guys are doing right now is the hub culture. The Breakfast Club is my morning sit. I need it and I love it so much. I feel like you're really not popping until you do the Breakfast Club. I've been waiting to come to y'all's show, man. I know you got to be a big time celebrity to be up in here.

You got to be big time. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, and Charlamagne the God. The Breakfast Club, bitches! Break the f*** out! Good morning, USA! USA! Nope, Charlamagne's mic is off. He's on mute.

I can see him saying yo, yo, yo. His mouth is saying like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Hey, fam. Oh, whoa. We can't hear you, Charlamagne. Well, it's Tuesday. What up, Yeezy? What's up, DJ Envy?

What up up Toronto? Good morning everybody, hope you guys slept well. It is nasty out here on the East Coast, the weather is disgusting, it's nasty. I'm surprised I even have Wi-Fi right now. I thought for sure, I was like a rainstorm is happening, I'm like something's gonna be knocked down, a tree's gonna knock down the cable, I'm like, something's going to be knocked down, a tree's going to knock down a cable. I'm surprised. But good morning. Well, it's a tropical storm now. It was a hurricane, but

it's been downgraded. How's everything by Brooklyn? I had to drive last night and there was a lot of trees knocked down. There was a lot of garbage cans blown all over the place. It was pretty nasty last night. How is it now? Well, you know, I'm not really going anywhere. So I've been in the house, but it didn't start

raining really, really hard until like 9 p.m. I was watching TV. I'm like, is that rain outside? And sure enough, it was. It's pouring. Then it kind of stopped and eased up for a little while, but it's not terrible. All right. Well,

we got a special guest joining us this morning. Taylor Rooks will be joining us. Of course, she's in the NBA bubble right now. So she's there. She's reporting on everything that's going on with basketball and everything that's going on with sports. So we'll kick it with Taylor Rooks in a little bit. And she's also reporting just about what it's like to have to be in the bubble. She started off by her first day there.

She's been vlogging about it. So pretty interesting stuff. Absolutely. Now, you know, I've been riding my bike heavy, crazy. I do about five days a week on my bike. So yesterday my daughter was like, Dad, I want to go. I want to take a ride with you. So I was like, sure.

So, you know, I put on, I just bought Logan a bike. So I put on Logan's bike and we started to ride. Yeah. That ride lasted seven minutes. Like when I say seven minutes. She said no more? What? We got about a baby.

Why? What happened? I guess she wasn't expecting the hills. I guess she wasn't expecting how difficult it is. She was just like, dad, I want to go back home. I'm like, no, we got to finish. We got at least through 10 miles. She's like, no, dad, you don't understand.

She was like, I'm going back home. She was like, either I'm going to catch an Uber home or I'm going back home. Because she was like, this is too difficult. So it was funny to see her say that. My son said the same thing a couple of days ago. Everybody just automatically thinks hopping on a bike and riding is easy. But when you start hitting them hills and you realize it's not just flat level, it's not just easy. You got to really put some work.

Most people be like, nah, B, I'm going back home. So that was pretty fun. I wonder if I'd be good at doing, B, I'm going back home. So that was pretty fun. I think we did a total of two miles. I wonder if I'd be good at doing that outside since I have my spin bike downstairs. And it does have hills like it. But I never did it for real outside. You should do it. You should come out one day.

One day we do Brooklyn and you should come out and just ride. You ain't got to do the long 30, 40 miles, but you could do like five, seven miles to see how you like it. I love it. I love it way better than running. I'll never run again. I prefer the bike. I'm even buying a gadget that I can ride in the winter.

Like they hook up your bike to the computer and you could actually ride your bike in the winter at home. See, I enjoy running. Nah, B. I hate running. But that's my thing. That's my thing. All right. Well, let's get the show cracking.

Front page news, what are we talking about? Well, I will give you a weather update and I'll also talk about a guy from Florida. He tried to buy a Porsche with a fake check that he printed out on his own computer. He didn't try. He did it. But we'll talk about it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Good morning, everybody. Do you realize we've been playing that rock star song every day at the same time for about three weeks? Longer than that. They just changed it. They just changed it? No, they put the remix in instead of the regular version.

Oh, my God. Okay. You don't like it? I like the song, but every day at the same time? Come on. It's some people's alarm clocks, I'm sure. And they like to wake up to their favorite song. When they hear that song, they know it's 605.

All right, well, let's get into some front page news. Where are we starting, Ye? Well, yesterday, Hurricane Isaias slammed into North Carolina, and now it has actually downgraded to a tropical storm. So we still have to be careful. You know, it's hit here in New York City and Pennsylvania, and Philly is forecast to see winds of 60 to 65 miles per hour in New York, 65 to 70. They're saying this could be the strongest winds in New York City

since Superstorm Sandy almost eight years ago, and there'll be wind and flooding impacts. It's pretty nasty out here, too. It doesn't I mean, it didn't hit as hard as North Carolina, but there's trees down and there's so many different things on the roadway. So if you have to go to work and you're on the East Coast, give yourself a little extra time, especially in the South, too, because it is nasty and disgusting out there. All right. And 42 year old Casey William Kelly has been charged with grand theft of a motor vehicle.

That's because he actually used a check that he printed out from his computer at home to go ahead and buy a Porsche. So he actually drove off a Porsche dealership lot in Destin, Florida in a 9, what is it called?

A 911 Turbo? Yep. Yep. Yes. And yeah, it was a cashier's check that he just printed out from home. Now, there is no way in the hell any dealership that I know that would take a cashier's check like that before it getting cleared or anything like that. I'm surprised they gave it to him.

There's no way they would give it to him. It doesn't make sense. And then he also went and tried to buy three Rolex watches with another fraudulent check for $61,000 at a jeweler nearby in Miramar Beach, but the jeweler did not give him the watches until they could determine

if the check would clear. What's the guy's name? His name is Casey William Kelly. Well, drop on the clues bombs for Casey Kelly. Sounds like he earned that card. All right. He got locked up.

He only had that card one day. Walking in there with a cashier's check is like walking in there car. All right. He got locked up. He only had that car one day. Walking in there with a cashier's check is like walking in there with an IOU. All right. That's what he did. I gave you this IOU for $200,000, whatever it is, and you gave me the car. Sounds like a fair exchange to me. All right. And here's something that's pretty popular, and I thought this was interesting.

A lot of people are wondering how can they do something fun like rent a swimming pool during coronavirus. There's not a lot of places you can go. Well, now they have this new app that's like an Airbnb for swimming pools. It's called Swimplify. So they actually connect you with somebody who owns a private pool and you can rent a pool by the hour. As people are trying to seek ways to do things like cool off or have a close to home vacation experience. And what they are saying is this company since coronavirus, their numbers have increased like thirty three hundred percent, thirty three hundred percent increase in traffic.

So they said this company operates in about 30 different states and the majority of their bookings actually come in the tri-state area, New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, and California, Texas, and Florida. So the prices range from $15 per hour for a quick escape pool to $300 for a more luxury experience. Yeah. That's a new hustle. I'm not mad at it. Especially in New York City.

I know a lot of people in New York City are tired of being stuck in a crib. So a lot of people are renting pools in New Jersey and Long Island because people are just tired of just the pools being closed and they can't get out. So, yeah, I see that as big business. For birthday parties? Yeah. Yeah, for birthday parties. Even weddings. If you want to get married because wedding halls, venues are closed.

So if you rent somebody's pool, you could get married by the pool as long as it's less than, what, 25 people, 50 people, something like that. Oh, I'm an idiot. I'm thinking about them pools they bring to your house. I was thinking about, I wasn't thinking about like the standalone pools. No.

House pools. Houses that already have pools. Yes. Oh, got you, got you, got you, got you, got you, got you. That's fun too. So they require, they require a one hour gap

in between reservation times. Also, they make sure that there's proper pool maintenance with sanitation and safety and chlorine and they also make sure that if a guest does feel uncomfortable then they can cancel their booking and get a full refund.

That's dope. That makes sense. Especially if you own a home with a pool and you don't use it, you can just rent your pool out every month. Now you're paying your mortgage. That's extra income. That's smart. All right. Now, that is your front page news.

Now, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset and you need to vent right now, phone lines are wide open. The number again, 800-585-1051. 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 I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tried my 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 warhead.

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.

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. This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. You better have the same energy. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this?

Hi, how's it going? Good morning. This is Isaac out of South Carolina. Hey, Isaac. Isaac, what's happening, King? Yo, what's up? Charlamagne, Angela Yee, and DJ Envy. Just want to get it off my chest that I'm blessed. I had my son two days ago.

First son. Congrats, brother. Congrats. Congratulations, King. Yes. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. It's good out here.

Hey, thank you guys for putting me on, and God bless all y'all. All righty. All right. Thank you. Hello. Who's this? Hey, thank you guys for putting me on, and God bless all y'all. All righty. All right. Thank you. Hello, who's this? Hey, good morning, Emory. It's your boy, Chill, man. How y'all feeling today, man?

What's up, brother? How you doing? Good morning, Angie. Good morning. Hey, Solomon, I'm like you. I listen to adult contemporary rap, you know what I'm saying? Yes, sir. I just want to put out there this morning.

I'm on my way to work this morning. First song I put on my shuffle. Since I hit shuffle. Two Shorts Getting It. Right? I'm coming into work banging that. And it just makes me think like this is a perfect time for us as a race, you know, to get out here and get it. You got

people, like the Emmys, showcasing black, you know what I'm saying, black actors and actresses and stuff like that. It's a shame that they didn't do this beforehand. It's like being at a dance in high school and middle school, you're not going to dance until you see somebody else dance. But we can be out here getting it. We should be out here getting it.

There's no better time. I like the way y'all get it. I'm out here getting it. Everybody else get it too. Let's get it. Hey, man, like Tushar said, you should be getting it, getting it while the getting is good. Get it while you can. And Ice Cube did an Instagram live video yesterday

and he said the same thing. He was like, yo, we got a very short window. We got to get it while we can. Very, very short window. Very short window. But I like what's going on. I wish it was authentic

and it feels fabricated to a certain extent with big companies like Amazon and stuff like that. Y'all wasn't rocking with us. Y'all know what I'm saying? Y'all wasn't been rocking with us. But we out here getting it, man. I love y'all, man.

I want y'all to have a great, productive week. All right, brother. Thank you, man. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

I'm telling. I'm telling. Hey, what you doing, man? I'm telling. I'm calling you. This what you doing, man? I'm telling. I'm calling. I'm calling, yo. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed.

800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Shante from Vegas, by way of California. Hey, Shante from Vegas. Get it off your chest. You know, I just want to first say that I so appreciate you guys. Like, I feel like I've grown with you guys, just listening to you guys over the years.

And you guys are such a great example of just entrepreneurship and just business and just growing. Like, I just really want to thank you guys. But, Charlamagne, are you there? Yes, ma'am. So, I'm a therapist from Vegas, and I know that you didn't do this consciously, but you talk about being in therapy, which I think is a beautiful thing. But when you say that you don't seek out black therapists, I just want you to be a little bit more cautious about those words,

especially for young black people listening who may be questioning and wanting to see a therapist. Like, I think it's great that, you know, we have black therapists that can help our community and that can really relate. You know, you guys have some drug on there too, which I'm so happy that, you know, people are discussing and talking about therapy. But it just seems like you guys didn't have great experiences with those black therapists. So I just want to know a little bit more conscious, conscious. No, you're right. But when I when I first started therapy, the reason I didn't want a black therapist is because I didn't want anybody to reinforce any prejudices or biases or narratives I already had in my head, you know, in regards to, you know, the race, white people.

Because, you know, that is a primary source of our anxiety. But now I do want somebody who's a little bit more culturally competent. And I have been seeing somebody who's a lot more culturally competent. So it is a black woman. Yes. But a few years ago when I first started. And I'm glad to hear it is a black woman. Yes, but a few years ago when I first started... Yes.

Okay, awesome. Because really, when we're sticking out therapists, the best question to ask a therapist, honestly, and this is for everyone listening, ask your therapist one question. Are they in therapy? Like, all therapists need to be in therapy. And if you have a therapist that's in therapy, that's a great

indicator that no matter what race they are, they'll be, you know, competent in what they're doing. Because we can't be hypocrites out here expecting people, you know, to really get the help that they need, and we're not getting it. So, I just wanted to, you know, bring that to your attention. So, I'm glad that you clarified that

for me. That's just been on my chest for a few weeks, especially after this new dog interview. So, but again, I appreciate you guys you clarified that for me. That's just been on my chest for a few weeks, especially after this new dog interview. So, but again, I appreciate you guys, what you're doing. If you guys can check out Charlamagne, especially you, New Way Empowerment Center. We're really trying to change mental health, especially in the black community. So yeah, check us out. All right. Thank you.

Empowerment Center? New Way Empowerment Center, yes, in Las Vegas. We're a black-owned therapy company, and we really are just dedicated and passionate about helping not, I mean, everyone, but especially people in our community, black community. All right. Well, thank you for checking in, Mama. Thank you, guys.

Have a good day. You too. You too. Hello, who's this? What's up, Envy? checking in, mama. Thank you, guys. Have a good day. You too. You too. Hello, who's this? What's up, MV? It's Mello. How you feeling? Mello, what's up, brother?

Yo, man. So I just want to give a special happy birthday shout out to my girlfriend. Her name Mel. It's a small world. I'm not that conceited. Her name is actually Mel. And I want to drop one of Kool's mom for iPhone Sim because he helped me set up the illest surprise for his son.

You and iPhone really be rolling tight, man. That's his guy. It's cute. That's really my guy. The crazy part is, like I said, iPhone, he knew my uncle, and when I got put onto this new job, he was like, man, I'm an old head. I don't even know you.

I'm like, nah, I mean, you probably know people I know. And then once he found out I was my uncle's nephew, it was over. That's my right-hand man. He hold it down anytime. But how y'all feeling though? We good, man. We good, man. Bless black and highly favored, sir.

I feel you. Same here. How you doing, Yee? Hey, what's up? How are you, Mello? I'm doing great. Still liking your pictures. Still getting in trouble.

Regular stuff. Yo, Charlamagne. You was on mute this morning. You got to drop the yo's real quick. Damn, man. I'm getting old on mute this morning. You gotta drop the yo's real quick. Damn, man, I'm getting old, man. I didn't gave out the yo's for free. Y'all didn't hear him. Well, you was on mute. That's not our fault. Alright,

set me up, Envy. Set me up. Good morning, USA! Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. Okay. I tried. That's all you got. Sorry, Mello. Alright, I'm gonna f*** with you. Yeah, alright, bro. Have a good day, Mello. All right, I'm going to f*** with you. Yeah, all right, brother. Have a good day, Mello.

What did you say he was going to do to me? I don't know. It sounded like he said he was going to fart on you, but hey, it sounded like something flirty. That sounded wild. Imagine I was in jail. I'd be terrified right now if I heard him. What did he say?

I'd be biting my nails trying to figure out what he said. My goodness. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We got rumors on the way, Yee. Yes, we are going to be talking about The Rock and his latest investment. We'll tell you what he has purchased. Also, I saw some Bobby Schmurder was trending yesterday,

and some people are saying he could get out of jail today. All right, we'll get into all that when we come back. 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, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel.

What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Yes, so congratulations to The Rock. He and his partner, Danny Garcia and Redbird Capitals, Jerry Cardinal, have acquired the XFL.

So apparently they purchased this right before it went on the auction block for $15 million. That's relatively cheap for a whole sports franchise. And it's also interesting because XFL used to be owned by the person who owned WWE. So think about that. A guy who used to be an employee of the WWE then came up, and he's now his own boss and can buy the XFL. When I first heard it, I thought he bought a team, but he bought the whole league.

Yes, it was founded by Vince McMahon, and they have actually gone bankrupt twice, so now they're going to have to figure out how can they turn things around. But he does think he can turn the XFL into a real sports league. And obviously, you know, we all know with The Rock, he did used to play football as well. So I'm sure this is something that's personal for him. I'll tell you one thing. I was watching the games.

I was actually watching the games before Corona hit. And when Corona hit, it shut everything down. But I was actually watching the games in Corona hit, and when Corona hit, it shut everything down. But I was actually watching the games in February and March when they were playing, and I thought it was going to be a great league because it was something after football, and it wasn't scrubs. It was good players, but COVID shut that down. Yeah, I hope he succeeds, but they would have had to really convince me to invest in that $15 million after they done been bankrupt twice.

I think they would have made it the second time around. If COVID didn't hit, I think they would have did good. This would have been the third time. They've been bankrupt twice. I think they would have made it the second time around. If COVID didn't hit, I think they would have did good. This would have been the third time. They've been bankrupt twice already. Alright, well that deal is expected to close August 21st as long as everything goes smoothly. It does feel like $50 million is not a crazy amount of money to own

the whole league though. The whole league? Not at all. That's not a lot of money. Especially The Rock. How much The Rock makes per movie? He probably makes that for one post on Instagram. He's like, let me do one Instagram post and buy the lead. He's definitely the highest paid actor in Hollywood, so he probably makes that on a film,

probably makes that on the back end easily. Mm-hmm. All right, now Peter Thomas, who used to be on Real Housewives of Atlanta, has confirmed that he is coronavirus positive. Here's what he said on social media. It's the most scintillating pain I could think of. Mine's a gastro.

My stomach's been a complete wreck for the last eight days. Constant cramping. The pain is crazy. Chills all day, all night all night waking up in cold sweat constantly have to keep my body hydrated no appetite diarrhea throwing up now he thinks he got it because he was taking pictures with fans at one of his establishments and he would lower his mask to do that yeah i you know i heard what he was saying. And, you know, I feel bad for the brother.

And, you know, of course, I pray for anybody with coronavirus. But I don't know if y'all noticed. Did y'all notice his line was straight as hell? Like he had a fresh baldy, a fresh straight line. And I'm like, he don't look like he's been laying in bed for eight days. But I definitely want him to heal and get better quickly. Hey, question. How do people recognize you and Mask? But I definitely want him to heal and get better quickly. Hey, question. Don't you?

How do people recognize you in mask? Maybe because he owns the place, so they just kind of know it's him. They can still recognize you. I'm just talking about in general. People still know you. That happened to me in the supermarket. I had my mask on, and somebody was like, Angela? I was like, how do you know that's me? They can tell your eyes.

They can tell your eyes, man. In movies, when somebody's robbing a store with a mask on, and the person is like, Angela, that's me? They can tell your eyes. They can tell your eyes, man. In movies, when somebody's robbing a store with a mask on, and the person is like, Angela, that's you? That's how you be feeling when you have a mask on in the store, and somebody be like, that's you? All right. Now, Quincy Brown is now Coach's first ever Global Watch Ambassador. So congratulations to him for their new watch collection.

And they said he is the perfect ambassador. I was thinking the same thing. Al Bishore's son, and Kim Porter's son. Oh, Quincy. Yeah, okay, Quincy. Should have just said Quincy and we put you in the brown,

you threw me off. I ain't never heard the Quincy Brown. I never know the B stood for brown. I didn't know he had a B. Okay. Well, anyway, they said he's the perfect ambassador

to represent this collection. So Albie Shore's last name is Brown? All these years I thought Albie Shore's last name was Shore. Albie's last name is Shore, fool. What's wrong with you? So how you get Brown? His last name is not Shore. Al's last name ain't Shore?

Prove it, ye. Hold on. Let me prove it to you right now. Are you sure his last name is not Shore? I thought his last name was Shore. I don't think you're sure about this. Albie's last name is actually Shore. His name is Albert Joseph Brown III.

See? Don't believe it. I thought his name, I thought it would be Quincy Shore. I would have definitely called him Quincy Shore. But okay. There's something new every day on The Breakfast Club. Combs, Porter. Never heard of him.

Bobby Schmurda could be released from prison today. That's what people were saying on social media yesterday. I don't know if that's really true, but fans speculated that that could happen, and he was set to go before the parole board in August, according to his mother. She said if he's granted an early release, that he would start working immediately on new music.

So I don't know if this is true. I just saw it trending, and then I was trying to do some research to find out what was happening. They had said his parole hearing was scheduled for the first week of August. So according to reports, today's that day. Yeah, they've been saying that for the last couple of weeks. So I hope I hope so. And today is his birthday, too.

So happy birthday to Bobby Shmurda. And I said this a long, long time ago. You know, if y'all get so upset over people who don't keep it solid and people who actually snitch to get their time cut shouldn't bobby and rowdy get a hero's welcome based off the rules of the street shouldn't they get a hero's welcome in the culture of hip-hop since they actually you know went did their time held it down bobby even took more time so him and roddy could get the same type of sentence. Shouldn't they get a hero's welcome in hip hop?

Yes, absolutely. I feel like they will. They should. Absolutely. They should. Okay, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. And today is ex-president Barack Obama's birthday as well. So it's Barack Obama's birthday and Bobby Shmurda's.

Yes, happy birthday to them. All right. Now, when birthday to them. Alright. Now, when we come back and we have front page news, what are we talking about, Yee? We are going to be talking about a man who pulled out an AK-47 on the cops. Oh, wow. Alright. We'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy. We on The Breakfast Club. Why are you laughing like that? Why are you chuckling like that? I will tell you for after the hour, okay? I was just reading up on today's donkey of the day. That's all.

All right. All right. Well, let's get. I think you'll love it. In fact, Drom, I need to get you. Get me some sensual music now for donkey of the day. I want something sexy. You've been really, like, anyway.

Let's get into some front-page news, G. Where we start? Yes, and primaries today, so if you are in Alabama, Arizona, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, and Washington, you'll be figuring out today who will be running in November. So shout-out to Levi's. They're actually teaming up with Rock the Vote to help get as many people as possible registered and ready to vote.

This fall, just text Levi's to 788683, and you can get registered and find out key dates and voting how-tos from Rock the Vote. Also, with the census, you know, we've been telling you guys you got to make sure you fill out those census forms. They're saying now they are cutting the census count short a month. So before, you had until the end of October to fill out your census, now you only have until September 30th. Okay. What's the science behind that? Why are they doing that? I feel like it has something to do with the

upcoming election. What are they doing? Why are they doing that? Do we know? I couldn't really tell you a good reason to do that. You know, they've already stopped going door to door. And I understand that. That's coronavirus. So you can't do that. But I'm not sure why they would cut the census short when they've already given you a deadline in October. Gotcha. All right.

Now, a cigar shop clerk said that Adam Zabarowski was told he had to wear a mask in the shop on Friday, and he refused. And instead, he actually grabbed two cigars and went outside and then pulled a handgun and shot at the clerk. This was in Pennsylvania, in Bethlehem Township, yes. So the next day, the cops actually came to his home to arrest him, and he fired at them with an AK-47. And after that, there was a wild shootout. At least seven officers ended up shooting him multiple times, and he has been arrested.

He's not dead? No, he's still alive. Wow. That could have went terribly. I would play a game of guess what race it is, but if they shot him multiple times, then he's only alive by the grace of God. Right?

Yeah, they did shoot him multiple times. And they are saying that according to his attorney, that he was going through a lot before the shootout. He had lost his job, also recently lost custody of his child. They said he wasn't doing well. He just can't start shooting, Cass. What? Race it is!

When the attorney is throwing stuff out there like that and they're trying to spin that in the media and make that the narrative, we know what race he is. Absolutely. You know what, though? And this is a tough one, right? Because we see all these stores and places

where you have to wear a mask to go inside. And it has led to a lot of arguments and even sometimes violence. There was a beating of arguments and even sometimes violence. There was a beating of a Trader Joe's employee in New York, a fatal shooting of a family dollar store security guard in Michigan, a McDonald's worker in Oklahoma got shot, all because they tried to enforce the rule

that you have to wear a mask. So if you're an employee at one of those stores, what are you supposed to do? Because you don't know how people will react. Yeah, no, you might be. Oh, go ahead. I was going to show you how to do it. Mm-hmm. Oh, go ahead.

I was going to say, these stores need security. I mean, you can't have your employees say, okay, you can't wear a mask. People have to wear masks, and they have to enforce it, and they have to sell things, and they have to, you know, check people out. No, they need to have security do that. I mean, think about that, though. The security guard in Michigan

at the Family Dollar Store got killed. Well, the problem here isn't the security, because this doesn't fall on the security. This falls on the people who are stupid enough to commit these crimes because they are being told not to wear masks. I can promise you, brothers and sisters, it's not that serious. Okay, if they want you to wear a mask, just leave. Okay, if they want you to wear a mask and you have a mask, just put the mask on. Is it really worth throwing your life away, harming somebody, killing somebody, going to prison for the rest of your life just because you don't want to wear a mask?

Like, seriously. It's stupid. That's an undue. All right. Yeah, very. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Front Page News. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee.

Now, when we come back, Taylor Rooks will be joining us. We're going to kick Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, Taylor Rooks will be joining us. We're going to kick it with Taylor Rooks when we come back. So don't move. She's in that NBA bubble. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's EJ, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the line right now. Taylor Rooks, welcome.

Hi, it's so good to see you all's faces again. You guys all happy, healthy during quarantine? Yeah. I was worried for you, Taylor. You're in the bubble. And I saw when you had to go and get tested in quarantine. I was like, fingers crossed that she's okay. Yeah. No, I mean, it's incredibly nerve-wracking for sure but you know I got tested

for COVID-19 before I came to the bubble just to be sure everything was fine and we're tested here every single day so I think there's definitely a comfort in knowing that like everybody that you're around is absolutely negative um for COVID-19 and hopefully that continues throughout this whole time in the Orlando campus. So every day? Yes, every single day. So what I do every morning, I don't know if I can grab it, but I have to take my temperature and then I have to take my pulse. But it's connected to the Bluetooth on my phone.

So they monitor everybody's temperature and everybody's pulse. And you have to do that before you leave the room. And the first thing you do when you leave the room has to be your test for the day. So you get your results for that day at like late night, early morning. So you always know within 24 hours what your test was. And then we wear these bands that we have to touch on every door we go in.

And if it's green, that means your pulse is fine. You don't have it and your temp is fine. If it's red, that means one of those things is off. You know, you're one of the people I follow to get the inner workings of the bubble. What is that bubble life like? It's a lot of basketball. It really does feel like summer camp, honestly, right? Like I said, you wake up, you do all this stuff for COVID-19,

then you maybe go to a couple practices, and then now you're going to games. But you're busy a lot. It's very hard for people to say they're bored, I think, because you're doing so much. Like it's like summer camp on steroids. There's always a game to be at, a practice to be at, an interview to do. And when you're not out doing stuff, you're in doing stuff, you're writing or you're doing your videos, you're doing Zoom interviews, like there's so much happening. And I think that a lot of the media members here almost feel a bit of an overload because there isn't that many of us in here. What do you think the rules should be if somebody gets an excused leave like Lou Williams did? And, you know, you see all this controversy

about him going to pick up some wings. And then he's saying, look, I just went in there. I was in and out. I took my wings to go. Y'all know those are my favorite wings. It's a restaurant. And they don't have any real rules about what you're supposed to do if you do get an excused leave. So what do you think the rules should be?

Do they need to change? Yeah, well, I mean, I think in general, like every individual has to do all the things that they can do to protect the sanctity of the bubble. So that collectively everybody can succeed. I think that the Lou Williams thing is a bit layered for a couple of reasons. Like, do I think you should minimize

the amount of people that you're around if you leave the bubble? Yes. But I don't know who we are to say, okay, you can or can't eat in these places. I'm from Georgia. Anybody that's from Atlanta or Metro Atlanta has been to Magic City.

Like going to Magic City is like not this big thing that it is made for people who like maybe don't understand Southern culture or maybe even Black culture. People genuinely do go to Magic City to eat. I think you get in this scenario where you're kind of like, are you going to tell this girl, man, that he can hang on to get wings in Magic City after this funeral? But I do think that as much as you can minimize you being around a bunch of people, it's fair. But I don't think we should be so caught up in like, you can't go to this place. Because

I just don't know if that's necessarily our place. Are the players co-mingling? Are they going out with each other? Are they eating dinner with each other? Are they playing games with each other? So how is that happening there with the players? Yeah, so I think the players spent a bunch of time together. Like, we're in these separate areas,

so we'll see them sometimes, like, biking across the bridge or fishing. Or I had to cover the Miami Heat practice, and I was interviewing Jimmy Butler. And then the moment we were done, he, like, looked at everybody and said, we playing phase 10 tonight? Like, they are always playing games and constantly building this camaraderie. Like Doc Rivers said in an interview a couple of days ago, he said like, OK, during this time, your team is going to figure out really how much they love each other and how much they don't like each other. And so I do think it really is that way, having to spend constant time together because there's really nothing else for them to do but play games and bike ride now with the players how was the game with no fans now you know because you

can hear everything like i heard lebron saying you got my hand and i have all ball all ball so how interaction with no fans honestly being able to hear lebron talk throughout entire games has been like an experience in itself you know like I really enjoy going to Lakers games because you see just how vocal of a leader LeBron is. Like telling everybody their assignment. He talks a lot of s*** on the court, but not in a way that's in your face. It's just like, I'm LeBron.

You know what I mean? So that's been really nice to hear LeBron. But like not having fans is not as weird as I thought it was going to be. Like when you're watching the games on TV, do you think it's that much different? No. Like, the feel of the game? No.

It's like watching 2K. I actually enjoy it. I like the camera angles. It's actually cool. It's a little bit off to me. I like to get a crowd. Like, I still like to hear the crowd and, let's go deep. Like, you can still hear that, though.

They got, like, sound effects. It's fake, though. You can tell it's fake. Now, I saw you talking to Isaac about the Black Lives Matter, and him not wearing the jersey and also not kneeling. And then I saw people were, like, had a problem with you

even asking that question, but as a journalist, you do want to know and give him the platform to give his explanation of why he opted out. So, what did you think about his explanation? Yeah. So, I mean, and that, that's the thing that I thought was so interesting. Like, I don't know when it became really about my question, you know, I wanted to give him the opportunity to explain why he didn't, like he wasn't getting some harsher treatment because he

didn't kneel. I was doing the same job that I do for either side. And so I feel like if every other person on the team wore the Black Lives Matter shirt, the natural journalistic question is, do you believe in that slogan? And he then gave his reasoning, which he's absolutely entitled to. And for me, there was a follow up there, which was, okay, can you explain further why the correlation between religion and not kneeling for the anthem for racial justice?

And he gave his answer. I mean, I have watched that clip over and over and thought to myself, like, is there something I could have said differently? You did nothing wrong. And I said to him and to the magic, like, this was me being absolutely sincere. He is entitled to do whatever he wants to do.

But I also wanted to give him the chance to explain that. And I also hope that he heals so quickly and perfectly. You never want to see anybody ever be injured. So prayers to him. And I think it was confirmed as an ACL injury. Wow. But, yeah, I mean, I just wanted to do the job, which was asking the question. The Internet is saying that's karma.

Do you believe that was karma? Absolutely not. And I would never put that on somebody because they were injured. Like, it has nothing to do with him not kneeling. Like, that's, and I feel bad that he has been so attacked. You know, I hope that last night he didn't even touch his phone. All right, we got more with Taylor Rooks when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Taylor Rooks. Who talks the most trash out there on the court? I mean, you hear Patrick Beverly talking a lot. I went to the game last

night between the Bucks and the Rockets and Harden and Giannis were like definitely going at each other a lot. I see you want to answer the question too when they were like, is he hard to guard? Next question. Yeah, next question. Next question. But I mean I think it was a little bit of a revenge for

Harden, you know. Giannis has implied so many times that he's a defensive liability but Harden put the clamps on Giannis down the stretch there. I mean, it's a lot of guys. What I have found though, is a lot of the fun banter isn't between player and players, it's between player and ref. They talk to the ref so much and they never agree with anything the ref

says. And it's always, it's back and forth. Like that's more constant talking than it is player player to player that's been interesting to hear are the refs talking trash back are the refs talking back they're definitely a little snarky you know like it's it's definitely a snarky relation between those two but it's it's entertaining is lebron staying in the bubble yeah everybody really is staying in the bubble. Like, they have planned this to a T. I don't really know how you could breach the security. If someone was to leave the bubble, they would know instantly, and you would have to quarantine.

I mean, Rashawn Holmes stepped over the line for, like, five seconds. Not a quarantine for 10 days. I mean, there's very few holes in this planning. What can the NFL and the MLB learn from the NBA? Because it feels like it's a lot more dangerous and they don't have the same protocols in place. Can they even have that in place? What could they be learning? I think it's impossible to institute this exact infrastructure right now. I think it's just like too late in the game for the NFL and for MLB. But I think things like daily testing is important. But I do think it's important to maybe have some conversations about whether these seasons can happen. So I don't have the answers

to that. But I do know that the NFL had a very long time to figure it out. But they kept on thinking that you could just wish this virus away. And now they're kind of in a bit of a rut because the plan was wishful thinking, and that is not a plan. So I hope they can figure it out, but I think a lot of things would have to be put in place for that to be, you know, for it to be safe for football to return. I feel like you're finally earning your respect for your work and not because of your looks? I would hope so. What people don't understand, I think, is the more that you do focus on a woman's appearance, specifically a black woman's appearance, the more you're taking away her voice. And while it is so incredible and very nice and flattering, whatever, to hear people say these nice things about me,

it doesn't really help me grow. Like the more that it is about what I look like, the less it's about what I say. And a lot of ways you're taking away my agency and also diminishing my work because you're not caring about the thing that I'm putting in front of you. And I am enjoying this time to be able to show like, listen, I've been doing this for an incredibly long time. I am in here in Orlando producing content at an incredibly high rate, making news at an incredibly high rate. And if it makes you feel better to try and attribute that to my look, you can do that, but it's inaccurate. I think it's also great that you humanize these players. A lot of times they get asked questions just about the game, just about what happened tonight. But I do like to see that other side as well. And I do feel like people are comfortable with you. And I've always seen how

much hard work you've been putting in, just watching you from the beginning when you first came to New York. And so I think it's really dope to see you there in the bubble. I was so excited that you were there and that you have been putting in some great work. And I'm hoping that this also helps you forge even better relationships with that trust is something that has to be established so that when it's time for them to break some news or want to come clean about something that you can be that go-to person. Yeah, for sure. No, you're right. And, and that is another big, you know, pro and big advantage of being in this bubble is we will all remember each other because of this moment. But I'm just thankful that I got to be here in Orlando. What about your defining series? Why was that important to bring to the world of sports?

Yeah. So I always tell people I read this book. It's called An American Marriage by an author named Tayari Jones. And in the end, she writes this essay. And she says that she had a professor who cautioned her to make sure to always tell stories about people and their problems, but not problems and their people. And sometimes I think when we talk about race, we talk about race first and humans second. It was important for me to create a series that is about how race has affected them throughout their lives instead of the other way around. So with all the athletes, I asked them two questions, which is, when did you realize being

black was different from being white? And then we end with the same question, which is define the word America. So through stories and anecdotes, they tell me how blackness or more importantly, whiteness has affected their lives and their experience. What role do you think the NBA, well, sports in general plays in just like the survival or even the detriment to black people in America? Because, you know, people were saying, oh, the NBA is going to be a distraction if it comes back. Like, what do you think? You know, I think there wasn't necessarily a right answer about whether the NBA should come back or not in terms of the social justice movement. I do think there is some proof that the NBA coming back has elevated a lot of discussions. The fact that

there has been so much unity in the kneeling, so much unity in LeBron holding a press conference and only talking about Breonna Taylor, Chris Paul only talking about Breonna Taylor, Tobias Harris, CJ McCollum, all these players consistently talking about it is really keeping it on the forefront of everybody's mind, and that's important.

But also the same thing, and the same thing I have said to many players, it is so important to not get caught up in symbolism, right? Like wearing a Black Lives Matter shirt, having Black Lives Matter on the court, watching, seeing like coaches that have pins that say coaches for racial justice. That is important, right?

But symbolism only matters if action is taken behind it. So it's been encouraging to see players do things like give their money to causes, right? Like commit time to causes, things that can show tangible change, because just putting on a jersey or just wearing a shirt is not going to cut it. We've already seen that. We've been doing that. It's like, what can we do collectively as a group to create something that is like long standing and really going to bring some change to black people and progress in the advancement of black people.

All right, we got more with Taylor Rooks. 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 Taylor Rooks.

Charlamagne? What's been your biggest challenge within the bubble? Just you personally, on a mental level, emotional level, what's been your biggest challenge? I miss sushi. There's no sushi in the bubble? There's no sushi in the bubble, no. I've seen somebody have a sushi plate at the bubble.

I don't know who posted a picture, but there was a picture. Really? It was probably a player, and they got some chef over there, but no, on our side, ain't no sushi. But there's pretty good food. Like, the food is good. I am not complaining. But, no, I definitely miss food that I love.

I mean, I miss my friends and my family, of course. You don't give a f**k about them. The first thing you name is sushi. All right? Knock it off. I'm like, sushi first and foremost. No, but I do, you know, there's a,

I mean, there's so many different things I miss. There's, I miss a bunch of things. I'm wondering when I'm gonna hit the bubble wall, like when I'm gonna be like, alright, get me out of here. But I'm not there yet. Like, I'm really enjoying this experience and I'm like, okay, listen, I was either in New York in my small apartment doing nothing but watching the games on television or being here

and actually experiencing it. So I don't know. I don't know what the, the hardest part maybe for me is there are times where I'm like, damn, like I'm really lucky in the sense of like, I'm getting tested every day. I feel incredibly safe. My life on a micro scale hasn't really been affected, but I think of people where it's a totally opposite experience. As people trying to break into the bubble, have you seen people trying to sneak in the bubble yet? No, no. Yeah. I'm telling you, like, I, I know there's like the memes and stuff,

but like, it is, it's kind of impossible to sneak in or sneak out. It really truly is. What's your prediction for this season? Who takes it all? Out of the West, you got to go Lakers or Clippers. We have to cop out, so I'm going to pick – I'll pick Lakers. And out the East? Obviously debating between the Bucs and the Raptors, honestly.

My heart is telling me Raptors. Tell us where you were when you got the call that you was going to be one of the few media people in the bubble. Because when I saw that, I was like, oh, that's a big deal for her. Like, that's a big deal. Yeah. Yeah, no, it was, it really was a good call. I was at home and my, like, supervisor hit me and was like,

we want to send you to the bubble. You're the person I feel like should go. You have the access, you have the relationships, you'll be able to get good content. It was like a no brainer for me. I was like, yes, I'll do it. When do I have to go? I pack my bags. So I was actually in Georgia when I was told it was very automatic for me. Like, you know, I'm not married. I ain't got no kids like I can do things like this you know I think that that's part of the luxury that you can get up and go but yeah they called and I was like I'm in I don't need any convincing this is historic there's going to be books and documentaries about this and now I want to be I want to be a part of it

now Taylor be honest how many people trying to shoot their shot with you because they know y'all trapped in that bubble there is it's not like you we don't see them but you see them at games and practices but that's the only time you're really allowed to see them so shooting the shot would kind of be what about them dms though i don't i don't really be checking my dms like that you know I really be checking my DMs like that but no I am I'm chillin I also I am I am irreversibly in love so I I'm there you go let's go let's do it no interview that you haven't gotten yet like if there's somebody that you haven't had your one-on-one with that's in the bubble right now, who would that be? Someone who's in the bubble right now. Like a sit down.

Like I can ask anything. We can have a real conversation. I think people would say LeBron, but I think I say Kawhi. Because there are so many unknowns about Kawhi. I think there's such an interest in like what is he actually like? What's his personality? And I don't think he's ever done a real true sit down. If I could pick anybody here, it would be Kawhi

Leonard for sure. Yo, that dude is just so naturally funny and he's just so naturally interesting for no reason. And I feel like I know what he feels because me and him got the same born day. We both 629 Kansas. So I feel like i know what's going in going on through his head like he is so interesting to me man yeah and it's and

it's like but when do you ever hear him talk at length about himself you know and now granted that might be some of the like allure of kawaii is that he's so unknown you know but that i would love to really have have a conversation with him. Let's put it in the atmosphere. Everybody here, speak it. I want them to win the championship this year. The reason I want them to win the championship is because he'll

be like the most elusive person to be able to sit down and talk to. He'll be the person everybody wants to talk to. He's never going to let you win on his thought process. He's the type of person you're not even going to He's never going to let you win on his thought process. He's the type of person you're not even going to know what he was thinking until his career is long over. Yeah.

Okay, but I have a question for you, Charlamagne. Mm-hmm. If Kawhi wins the championship this year, is there a real case for him to be a top 10 player of all time, winning championships on so many different teams? Man. Yeah, I don't want to be a prisoner at a moment and say yeah but yeah right that's a that's a big feat right yeah you would

have to put him he'd have to be up there he'd have to really be in the conversation because he's yeah proven he's like a consummate winner wherever yeah yeah i would think so yeah i was having this conversation the other day i feel like i'm kind of there too like if you you're bringing this energy to every team like that's that's a great that's literally what the greats do so yeah it'll be interesting to see you know how maybe the kawaii conversation shifts if he does win this year yes i agree all right no thank you. Yeah, it was so good to see you all's face. I wish you so much health and happiness, and please stay safe.

Thank you, Taylor. Peace. All right. Bye, guys. This is Taylor Rooks. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk logic. She's spilling the tea. This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Yes, so as you should know by now, Logic has retired from hip-hop. He's not doing any more albums,

but he is trying to set the record straight and he sat down with Rob Markman from Genius on For The Record and he talked about a lot of different things. Now, just to set the record straight, and he sat down with Rob Markman from Genius on For the Record, and he talked about a lot of different things. Now, just to put things in context, Logic has had issues with Charlamagne. He's addressed it in his music, and it all stems from old Breakfast Club interviews. Here's one that has to do with his sister getting raped. Your father was a crackhead, right?

He was. He's doing good now. He's doing good now. He's doing good now. He's sober now. But it's crazy. It's all about experience. That's why, honestly, me, because I don't smoke weed, I don't drink, which is fine. You can do whatever you do. I think it's good in moderation.

But me, you know, witnessing my mother getting her ass whooped by men as a child, dealing with the aftermath of my sisters being raped, things like this. Do your family members get upset that you put their life out there? Like you said, your sisters got raped. Your father was on crack. Great question. I think they understand because I've sisters got raped. Your father was on crack. Great question. I think they understand because I've spoken to them.

I don't out nobody. I have a lot of brothers and I have a lot of sisters. It's kind of a culmination of all our stories as a whole. I talk about it on the out. Who the hell raped your sisters? Oh, man, I don't want to get into that. That's a little too personal. Then there is another interview where Charlamagne asked Logic

about some homophobic remarks that he had allegedly made. I saw you do an interview with Vlad TV and you said that it would be very uncomfortable for you to listen to a gay rapper talking about kissing a dude.

Did I say that? I don't know. I thought you said you saw it, Charlamagne. I said that? Yeah, you said that. I don't think I said that because...

Wait, he said I said that. I don't think I said that because... Wait, he said that. I said that. Shout out to one of my favorite people of all time in the world, Ricky, my stylist, who is a gay man. Don't look and make a look. I am very comfortable with my sexuality. I am comfortable with the gay community. I believe in all people. I will say, I don't know exactly how that got written.

You know Vlad headlines be crazy. Yeah, I know. They do be kind of crazy. That's why you should watch it before you just pull the headline. Yeah, no, no, no. My goodness. Well, here is Logic on that interview on Genius, and he is discussing what his issues were with Charlamagne

and how he held on to those issues. I really f*** with Charlamagne, and I respect Charlamagne. Let me just say that now. When he basically kind of caught me homophobic without even watching an interview. And I was like, I didn't even say that. And then for him to just out his mouth, be like, yo, who raped your sister?

Like that me up. And I actually held onto that for like six years, man. And I was like, this isn't healthy. And I'm talking to my therapist about it. And I put it on record and it's history. It doesn't matter. I respect Charlamagne. Some of the s*** he be saying is wild.

You know what I mean? Like, asking me what I'm doing for the Black Lives Matter movement as a black man who looks white. Like, what kind of f***ing question is that? Personally, that's the s*** that makes me not feel accepted. But there's no issue, dude. It ain't that deep. If I saw Charlamagne, I'd be like, what's up? I actually would love to talk to Charlamagne.

Can I work on that? Can I hook y'all up? Yeah, yeah, for sure. Well, salute to Logic. You know, I don't have a problem with Logic. But, you know, he was being disingenuous in that interview with Ron Markman. Because, you know, he knows I did not randomly ask him who raped his sister. Context matters and not social media context, real actual context. And as you just heard in that interview, he mentioned his sister being raped twice.

Okay. That's why you got to listen to the whole exchange with logic in full, you know? But you know, on the internet, somebody edited it and it starts off with me just saying, who rapes your sister? And they've been passing that clip around for years. And I don't expect these digital D-heads online to be smart, but I expect Logic to be smarter than that because he was actually sitting there.

But I have no problems with the young man, Logic. And I do appreciate the way he talks about his own mental health struggles in his music. And I really don't know where I got that headline from about the homophobic thing. I could have swore that I was on Vlad TV or something. But, yeah, I asked him about a false headline. It happens.

I didn't accuse him of being homophobic. I asked him about a false headline. And when he asked me where I got that from, I said I had no idea. So clearly it wasn't true. So, I mean, you know, God bless him, brother. You know what I don't understand? I think it's just miscommunication. What I don't understand with Logic and a lot of rappers is you rap,

you want to be famous, you do this to get your point across, and, of course, you're going to get people that love your music and people that don't understand with Logic and a lot of rappers is you rap, you want to be famous, you do this to get your point across. And of course, you're going to get people that love your music and people that don't like your music. And then when people say they don't like your music, people get hurt and they get upset about it. But that's what opinion's about, right? Yeah, and I mean, yeah, and I think with rappers too, if you're going to rap about certain things in your music, you know, whether it's certain things about your family, certain things happening to your sister, and then you're going to talk about those things in interviews, yeah, you're probably going to get asked about those things. But, you know, it definitely wasn't malicious or coming from a bad place. But the Internet, man, the Internet will manipulate things.

They literally cut the clip to where it starts off with me just saying, who raped your sister? Right. Like, Jesus Christ. I know I used to be a freaking jerk, but I wasn't that much of a jerk. Joe Button did call Logic one of the worst rappers to ever grace a microphone. That's really harsh. That's his opinion. That's his opinion, though.

I don't even know that he's ever listened to Logic music. I'm sure he would have. People would have think Joe Button sucks as a rapper. Yeah. It happens. Logic could feel that way. He could feel that Joe Button sucks as a rapper. Yeah. It happens. Logic could feel that way. He could feel that Joe Button's trash. He could feel that Joe Button's podcast is trash.

He could feel that The Breakfast Club is trash. But that's his opinion. And he could have his opinion on whatever he wants. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Actually, he said in that interview with Rob Markman, Charlamagne is a damn good radio personality, one of the best. Okay, let's put that out there. Let's not have too many false narratives floating around. Shut up, man. Yo, shut up, man. It ain't all about you of the best. Okay, let's put that out there. Let's not have too many false narratives floating around.

Shut up, man. Yo, shut up, man. It ain't all about you all the time. Yes, it is. All right. And now let's talk about J. Cole. The Pistons are saying that they want J. Cole to hit them up for that tryout. So they posted, we see you out here.

You said they only got 12 slots on the Pistons. Hit us up for that tryout. This is all for the Dreamers. Okay. That could be good. I think it'd be dope. I would love to see J. Cole try out for the Pistons, but I really do hate how easy it is for some of these young'uns nowadays.

I know it wasn't that easy for Master P. I know it wasn't that easy for Master P. There wasn't no team just like, hey, P, come try out for us. And listen, I'm glad J. Cole's getting a tryout, but we have to remember that I want him to get a tryout because of his skill set, not because he's J. Cole. I mean, we haven't seen his skill set, but I heard

he's been working. I heard he's been working with NBA trainers, and I heard he's pretty damn good, so I'm excited to see him. Like the Pistons already posted his jersey? Like they put a mock image of his jersey up Like come on man Let the man earn his spot They're excited I'm sure they are

You know how much money they'll make in jersey sales If they sign J. Cole Attendance will be through the roof Are they going to make the playoffs this year? Are they even in the playoffs? I haven't seen the Pistons play yet I don't think they're playing I don't think they're one of the teams

Is J. Cole working out with Chris Berkley? Yes Because that's what he posted Okay, alright, that's dope Alright, well I'm Angela Yee And that is your rumor report Is J. Cole working out with Chris Berkley? Yes. Because that's what he posted. Okay. All right. That's dope. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right.

Thank you, Miss Yee. Charlemagne. Yes. Who you throwing that donkey to this morning? I need a baseball player named Reese McGuire to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him. Any relation to Mark McGuire? I don't know, but he's a catcher, Envy.

What does that mean, man? What does that mean? What are you alluding to, man? Don't worry about it. I'll play dumb with you. I hate you, man. All right, donkey, the day's up next. It's the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. You get donkey at a date with you dumb ass. You get donkey at a date with you dumb ass. You are a donkey. We'll be right back. judgment of who was going to be on the donkey of the day they chose you the breakfast club bitches who's donkey of the day today donkey of the day for tuesday august 4th goes to major league baseball player reese mcguire now he is a 25 year old catcher for the toronto blue jays toronto what's happening uh on february 7th reese was arrested and doomed in Florida for masturbating in a strip mall parking lot. That's right. Little five knuckle shuffle. Okay, that damn Florida will get you every time.

What does your Uncle Sharla always say about the great state of Florida? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. And even if you're not from there, sometimes just being there can make you crazy too. Let's listen to the news report, please. Catcher for Toronto Blue Jays is getting some exposure the team isn't very pleased with. Pinellas deputies busted 24-year-old Reese McGuire, accusing him of exposing himself. According to the Pinellas County arrest report, when deputies arrived at this parking lot at Patricia and Main in Dunedin at two in the afternoon on Friday, they spotted

McGuire naked from the waist down. The report indicates there was an extremely pornographic video on his cell phone. Deputies say McGuire apologized, saying he was sorry repeatedly. When asked why his pants were down, he replied, quote, I really shouldn't have been doing that. They also wrote McGuire had just finished a practice at the team's facility, had a bite to eat, and then ended up in this parking lot. Wow. TMZ actually has audio of him trying to explain why he did this to the police officers. I kind of was checking to make sure no one was looking, like no one was around me. And then at that point, I kind of got spooked when I saw you, sir.

And then I realized what an idiot, what a dumb place to be. I mean, if you're down at an apartment next to the stadium, why would you come to a parking lot just to masturbate? I just, I don't know. I'm not sure what goes on from here, but as far as I've realized that I made a mistake of having my pants down and doing what I was doing. And if there's any way I can really learn from it, I feel like hopefully no one's harmed.

And I really am apologetic and I know I shouldn't have done this. Wow. Reese McGuire, a.k.a. Yank Aaron. If you ever wondered what MLB players rub on their bats, please don't ask him, okay? How the hell you just pull up to us a parking lot to have a date with Pamela Henderson all right I know you an MLB player but isn't there a better place to play a game of one-handed baseball this reminds me of an article I read in the New Yorker some

years ago back in 2014 you can look it up it's called baseballs sticky secrets I'm not sure this is what they meant okay if you're a baseball fan which I'm not sure this is what they meant. Okay, if you're a baseball fan, which I'm not, then you remember when Yankee pitcher Michael Pineda, did I pronounce his name right, you Yankee fans? Michael Pineda? Y'all don't remember? Is that his name? Nobody in the room knows, huh?

I don't know. Michael had been caught on TV cameras with pine tar on his hand. I am almost positive Grease McGuire would rather get caught with that sticky substance on his hand than whatever came from the old shaking steak. Now, I don't know why, but when I reread this article about baseball's sticky secrets after reading this article, it just sounds a little sick. Okay, I'm going to read some of this verbatim, and you tell me, am I alone here with thinking whoever wrote this quite possibly has had to bunt in a strip mall parking lot? Oh, yes, bunt is the term that should be used when an MLB player gets caught masturbating in a strip mall parking lot.

I mean, if first base is kissing, making out, and a home run is sex, then bunting has to be masturbation, right? Right? and a home run is sex then bunting has to be masturbation right right anyway let me read you some stuff from this article and tell me after hearing this story of Reese McGuire your mind you know doesn't go in the gutter while reading this story follow me drum can you put on some essential music maybe drum what do you put on right before you're about to you know do a little one-on-one with yourself put play play that little tune wow wow all right all right okay that's a sexy tune this is straight from the new yorker pine tar which is the sticky byproduct of a process of firing pine wood under pressure whoa reese mcguire aka ernie spankbanks was clearly trying to relieve some

pressure by firing off pine tar from his pine wood in the script mall parking lot okay let's continue hitters are allowed to put this sticky stuff on their bats to keep bats from slipping out of their hands and flying dangerously at players on the field or into the stands. Wow. If it's flying at players on the field or people in the stands, we might have to call Reese Derek Skeeter. All right. Meanwhile, pitchers are not allowed to use it.

Clearly, in the case of Reese McGuire, only catchers can use it. Envy and Drama, I want to ask you both a question oh boy are you are you pitchers or are you catchers huh that's what you guys prefer do you guys prefer the top of the knife or the bottom of the knife huh can I be can I be a hitter can I be a batter all right I don't think there's a way to rub your back. You just got to rub your back with this sticky substance. OK, now let me tell you why this New Yorker article says pitchers are not allowed to use this sticky substance. It's a perfectly good explanation by the letter of the rules. It cannot apply a foreign substance of any kind to the balls.

That includes tacky substances as well as slippery things like Vaseline. They are also not allowed to spit on the ball or rub it on their bodies. The rationale behind these rules is that messing with the balls makes it do weird, unfair, and potentially dangerous things.

A lubed up spitball for instance. All right. All right. Enough is enough. I'm reading from the article. I'm reading from the New Yorker. You're fantasizing right now. You're kinky.

Well, I'm not reading anymore. It doesn't let you pay me 99 cents per minute. Okay. Now back to Reese McGuire, AKA Jacking Robinson. I have nothing else to say about him other than he needs to wash his hands, use hand sanitizer, and social distance. Okay?

Oh, and wear a mask. In fact, catchers in baseball wear masks all the time. In fact, they wear masks with throat protectors. I don't know what that has to do with anything, but it sounds fitting. Please give Reese McGuire the sweet sounds of the Ham's. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You're very kinky this morning, bro. I just want to throw that out there. I need to look up Reese McGuire's salary real quick.

Hold on. What is Reese McGuire's salary? Reese McGuire's salary. Oh. Why do you need to know that? He made $555,000 last year. And he plays in Major League Baseball. I can totally see why he would be masturbating in the Scrip Mall parking lot.

I totally can understand. $555,000 and you're a Major League Baseball player? They don't pay catchers good or something? They usually do. Jesus Christ. Alright, well, thank you for that donkey today, sir. Yes, ma'am. Yes, sir.

I'm a sir. I don't know if you realize it yet. You've been working with me 10 years. I'm a sir i don't know if you realize it yet you've been working with me 10 years i'm a sir let's open up the phone lines 800-585-1051 where's the craziest place you masturbated hey yes i like this one i'm just sit back and listen where did this come from i don't't know.

You had a hole in your tractor trailer that you lived in. And you used to steal it. It was an attractive trailer. I didn't live in a tractor trailer. I lived in a single wide trailer in Moncks Corner, South Carolina on a dirt road. And yes, I had a glory hole, but I never put my penis in that glory hole because it was actually made out of the hole of the trailer. And that would just not be safe, sir. But I've only always masturbated in the privacy of my own home. I've never had to masturbate that bad where I just had to whip out and do a little five-finger shuffle anywhere and everywhere.

What the hell I look like to you? I would ask you, Yee, but I figure, like, I would be going to Human Resources if I ask you. So let's just open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051.

Charlamagne told us about his tractor trailer experience. Now, what about you, Yee? No, no, no. Any crazy places? No, no, no, no, no.

There was no tractor trailer. I grew up in a single-wide trail in Moss Corner, South Carolina. I am not that type of person that just masturbates in public. I've only always masturbated in the privacy of my own home. OK, I don't just pull out and start shooting from any and every way. Who do you think I am? James Harden. OK, I've never been that horny in my life just to masturbate in public. All right. What the hell I look like to you?

OK. I've never been that horny in my life just to masturbate in public alright what the hell I look like to you okay alright I've always looked at that as like a really disgusting thing I just remember being traumatized as a kid one time I was on the train in public I was on the train with my mom and some guy sitting across from us

took his thing out and started doing that ever since then that's just something I feel like is not meant to do in public. Hey, y'all remember Duke from the 40-40 Club? I came up to the breakfast. I was going to say, I was saying the same thing. Remember that one guy that came up to the radio show that Charlamagne gave pounds and hugs for?

And I was like, you know, that's the guy that be outside the 40-40 Club. That never happened. That never happened. But y'all remember that dude from the 40-40 Club? Where is that guy now? I've seen him before. I've seen him dude from the 40-40 club? Where is that guy now? I've seen him before. I've seen him before outside the 40-40.

And you would be leaving the club late at night, and he would be sitting outside on the curb masturbating. And it was disgusting. That dude had an AR-15, and he would clean his gun anyway. You hear me? He would just whip out and have that thing aimed at you.

When I would walk in the club the D-Day, he would be working. We were on a class trip and a cab driver pulled up to the stop sign and he was masturbating in his car then. I just don't think you're supposed to masturbate in public, period. That dude who used to be in front of the 40-40 club.

I would go to in the DJ, he would be whatever you call it, milking the cow. And then on the way back, when I left the club, he'd still be milking the cow. Oh yeah, that dude who used to be at the 40-40 club, he was a mass shooter now. He was not playing at all.

Like, he was dead not for a long time, just for a good time. That's it. All right, let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Yes, I am going by anonymous this morning. Oh, gosh.

Where is the craziest place you masturbated, sir? I was in court in the court's bathroom. Yes. In the court's bathroom. You was probably nervous. You probably was stressed out. You know what I'm saying? Relieving some anxiety.

Yes, I had to go and take care of myself before I went on the stand. And after that, it was very good. What made you horny in court? He wasn't horny. He was nervous. I was a little bit of both. I didn't know that you would.

If you were nervous, I thought you couldn't get an erection, no? I don't know about that one. It worked for me. What was the bailiff name that made you horny? Miss Brass. Something like that. I know what you was going for, Charlamagne. What was I going for?

Tell me, because you know. Whatever. You the one banging your gavel in the bathroom. All right. Well, thank you, sir. Probably daydreaming about Judge Mathis. Hello. Who's this? This is James.

James, what's up, James? What's the craziest place that you masturbated before? I would have to say the church bathroom. Church bathroom? Hallelujah. Talk to me about it, sir. I think the spirit moved me, and I had to go move you. Goodness gracious. I like that. Yes, the spirit moved you and you had to move the spirit.

There's nothing wrong with that. I had to release them demons. Release them demons. Get them demons up out of you in church. Were you able to focus after that? Did you make ties? Were you able to focus after that? 800-585-1051. We're asking where's the craziest place you masturbated is the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning.

He plays for the Toronto Blue Jays. Our board op, Drum, keeps talking about oysters, blue oysters, and how blue oysters are after DJing. Yeah, club. No.

Yeah, no, it's a clubby DJ. It's called the Blue Oyster. And he said that he had a situation there where he masturbated in the club. There's nothing true about this at all. It is. And he said he didn't have any hand towels or nothing, so he wiped it in his beard. Why are you laughing?

I don't like how you tell us these stories and then when we try to bring them up on the air and get you to be vulnerable, you don't even want to have them, okay? I don't like how you guys just like to push this narrative. I don't know what's going on over here. If you applied your handbrake in a club full of oysters,

fine. Nothing wrong with that. It never happened. Nothing wrong with a little backstroke roulette, just not in public drama. Don't do that again, okay? No more arm wrestling with your little one-eyed vessel, okay? It never happened. Let's go to the phone lines. So bad for her. Nothing.

Some people didn't even get their stimulus money. I am so in shock by something like that. The dog just did that. Hello? Hello? Hello, brethren. Yes, good morning. Can you hear me? Yes, we hear you. You reach. Oh, good morning. Can you hear me?

Yes, we can hear you. You reach. Oh, my God. I forgot y'all on the phone. I was talking to the farm store lady. You reach. You reach. We heard you about the stimulus check.

We heard you about the stimulus check and you upset, ma. Oh, my God. Y'all so much. Oh, my God. I forgot you were there. She didn't get no money, poor lady. I'm trying to help her. Listen, we're not talking about that kind of stimulus this morning, though. We're talking about another kind of stimulus.

You're so freaking cute. Listen, in my car in traffic, I started doing those Kegel exercises exercise and everything started getting stimulated. So, yes, in my car in traffic getting off because my fiance is too far away. So you were flicking the mouse in the car. Correct. So freaking cute. And then police pull you over and say, where the fish with the head still on it?

I smell fish with the head still on it. Listen, I'm quick. If you don't fish, I'm quick. I'm not interested in poison, none of those things. I'm quick. All right, quick. All quick. All right, quick. All right. All right, well, you have a good morning.

She's probably **** off to you right now. She said you were cute three times. Well, she got good taste. How you mad at her when we're having good taste? Lenard. Hello, who's this? Handsome. What's up, bro?

Hey, buddy. How's it going? Hey. Don't call me buddy after we, buddy. How's it going? Hey. Don't call me buddy after we're going to be talking about masturbating now. Yo, I'm calling from Toronto, Ontario, up here in the 6th. So I know I'm going to get an airful for this one, but I work in the construction field. And up in Toronto, we got a whole lot of good-looking women up there, and they like to walk around showing their booties off, showing it off all downtown.

So, you know, a couple times, you know, you see the girls, you're feeling good, and you got to go to a porta potty and have a little business, you know? In a porta potty? You masturbated in a porta potty? I know, man. You're disgusting. You need to be showered in hand sanitizer.

Like, the porta potty is the most unattractive place, the most unhorny place to ever masturbate. The porta potty might have a bestest. Why are y'all judging people you want to hear the stories? When did you last see me in the porta potty? I know I heard from him, man, but I'm telling you straight up. That's how it goes. You got to handle the business.

You got to handle the business, you know? I don't even like peeing in a port-a-potty room. I'm just glad he was mad enough to not do it in front of the women and to actually go into the port-a-potty in private. I peed behind port-a-potties. That's how much I hate port-a-potties. Me too, me too. Yeah, me too.

I hate port-a-potties. I might pee on a port-a-potty. You never know what you're going to see when you go into a port-a-potty. You ever been to a porta potty? Porta potty Disgusting No Alright well what's the moral of the story guys

There's no moral of the story we're just disgusting this morning The moral of the story is don't masturbate in public guys Or a porta potty You got rumors on the way Yes and a brat. She's talking about details of Eminem and Mariah Carey's sexual relationship. Or maybe they didn't have one, but we'll tell you what allegedly went down. All right, we'll get into that next.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The rumor report. Gossip.

Angela. Angela Yee. It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club. Well, with Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, get ready for some new Cardi B music. She did announce that she has a new song coming out. She was on Instagram. To let people know that she does have an announcement,

her single is dropping Friday. It's called Wet, featuring Meg Thee Stallion. I'm intrigued. I love the album cover with her and Meg Thee Stallion. And I just like to see when black people link up, you know, when black people link up, especially when they're at the top of their game. And, you know, Cardi's been at the top of the game

for a couple of years. Meg's definitely at the top of the game. So I'm interested. I'm intrigued to see what they've cooked up. Yeah, me too. And, you know, recently Cardi had said that she hasn't been rushing out new music or projects. She said she doesn't have any managers.

Her lawyer handles her business. And she's been talking about other things that she's been doing during the pandemic. All right. I think Cardi did it right. I think the fact that she, you know, what's the last time she put out? Press? What was that, 2019? And that was after her album dropped in what, 2018 I think her album came out?

So it's been a while, but I think that you should let your music breathe if you have that luxury. Everybody don't have that luxury. Yeah, that option, yeah. All right, now Kanye West has officially named his VP on his ballot filings. Oh my God. Wait, you don't want to know who his vice president is going to be? No. And that VP is a woman named Tidball is her last name.

I don't know if you guys. Michelle Tidball. Yeah, Michelle Tidball. That's his running mate. Okay. So right now. Are you still secretary of defense? Shut up, man.

It's all fun and games until he gets 5% of the vote in November because of the write-ins. And that's how much Joe Biden loses by. Then who falls to that? All right. Well, looks like Kim and Kanye also have reportedly taken a family vacation to try to save their marriage. According to an insider for People magazine,

she wanted to pull the plug on the relationship during her trip to Wyoming last week, but they did come to a tentative peace, but she really wants him to stop with this whole running for president business. All right, DeBrett, she was on Dish Nation, and she was talking about details of Eminem and Mariah Carey's relationship. Mariah Carey does have her book, The Meaning of Mariah Carey, that's coming out September 29th. And according to DeBrett, she said this is what Eminem is concerned about. He was never in bed

in bed with her. Let's get this clear. When I read, y'all will see that he prematurely ejaculated when they had all of their clothes on because he was excited that he was with Mariah. There was no

sex in the champagne. If I was Mariah, I would be mad at the brat for giving away one of the clearly most juiciest parts of the book, right? Unless there's just so much other great stuff in there that that's just something you can throw away. I was going to say Eminem and his song The Warning, though, pretty much kind of put it out there already. Listen to this. Like I'ma sit and fight with you over some slut bitch now. That maybe put up with a psycho ass over six months and only spread her legs to let it hit once. Listen to this. You don't want me to talk about how I wanted on it early because I ejaculated prematurely and bubble over your belly and you almost started hurling and said I was gross.

Go get a towel, your stomach's curling, or maybe you do. But if I'm embarrassing me, I'm embarrassing you. And don't you dare say it isn't true. That seems like confirmation to me. I can't even understand what he's saying, but I wouldn't feel bad about that if I was Eminem. I mean, I know they say a no-show is better than a bad show, but I mean, it's not every day you get invited to a Mariah Carey show,

if you know what I mean. So you should just be happy to be there. And I will say, if that is true, and I guess it is based off what he just said, it's super corny and childish that Eminem spent so much time dissing Mariah Carey after the fact. That's whack. That's lame. Well, maybe he thought it was going to come out,

and to get ahead of it, he talked about what really happened. He ejaculated prematurely. He rapped about Mariah for years after that. Even recently, he was still rapping about Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon. It's just like, how long ago was that? I guess that's why Mariah made that song, Why You So Obsessed To Me. Wasn't that about Eminem? Yeah.

Obviously, he's hurt. Yeah, it's just corny to continue to do that. Okay, you premature ejaculated. Y'all had a bad experience, so what? Like, my God, that's going to be your content? Mariah was saying that she never dated Eminem at all. Probably did. But now she's playing with words.

Yeah, she probably didn't call it dating. Yeah, now they're just playing with words. Okay, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Shout out to Revolt. We'll see you tomorrow. Everybody else,

the People's Choice Mix is up next. Happy birthday to Barack Obama and Bobby Shmurda. So we're going to start off the mix with My President is Black

and then let's get some Bobby Shmurda on, all right? It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,

Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the line, Carlos Watson. Welcome back, sir. Hey, good to be with you. The last time we seen you, you were telling us about the Ozzy Fest that you guys were doing in New York City.

What happened to that? The heat. The heat. The heat was on. It was like a Spike Lee movie. It got hot, hot, and super hot. And so we had to postpone. But we'll be back next year in Central Park with a terrific group of people

and excited when the world gets healthy again. I'll be there, man. That was crazy because I've never heard of so many things getting canceled, things that had been in the works and been planned all year long. So I know that was a tough one, right? You know, it really was, but it was interesting. For such a young company, Ozzy, I saw everybody

bounce back. We went right from that to producing, I don't know if you saw the TV show that we did for Oprah, Black Women Own the Conversation, but we went right into that, and everybody put their energy in the right place and just kept moving. Alright, well now you have your own show

courtesy of Ozzy. We named it the right way, The Carlos Watson Show. And I'm really excited. We're just launching today a new talk show on YouTube every day. Five days a week. And I saw you had Karen Bass on, and she's a contender to be VP. So I wanted to ask you, because I know you know a lot of these people, obviously, from all your experience. If you strategically had to say who Joe Biden should pick that would get us energized, right, or that would get you energized, what would you recommend for his VP pick? You know, I think the top two contenders in my mind would be Stacey Abrams. I think if you chose Stacey Abrams, there would literally be 100,000 people, I think, who would volunteer. I think there'd be that level of excitement about choosing the woman who nearly became Georgia's governor.

Or Karen Bass. I'm a big fan of Karen Bass. People don't know her in the same way. But you know those people who the more you get to know them, the more excited you get. And people don't just like them, they love them. I think she's that kind of person. She's a serious martial artist, among other things, a former nurse in emergency wards, and I think just a big thinker, and I think she's going to get people excited if she chooses her. Now, you didn't mention Kamala Harris. Why not Kamala Harris?

You know, she'd be right behind. She'd be right behind. You know, I think there's an embarrassment of riches, to be honest. I mean, think about all the people that he could be choosing from here. You got those three. You got Susan Rice. I like Val Deming down in Florida, former chief now member of Congress. And we're only talking about some of the people. They haven't even gotten envy to some of the other people who I think are good. There's a young congresswoman up in Boston no one's talking about this time around, but I bet you they will next time, Ayanna Pressley.

So there's a lot of talent to choose from. But if you ask me, and Evangela said, where does it start and what would create the most enthusiasm, signs, volunteers, people waiting extra time to vote, people organizing? I think Stacey Abrams does that. I think that Karen Bass would do that. Okay. What did you guys think of Karen?

I mean, I like Karen. I think she's dope. My only concern is, like, does she move the needle if you put her on the ticket with Biden? Does she energize people? Does she make people want to come out? I mean, the thing I like about Senator Harris is, I mean, whether you love her or you hate her, you feel something, right? And sometimes just that feeling of something can make you move. I don't know if Congresswoman Bass will make people feel anything. What I like about her, though, is her background in activism and how she wasn't trying

to be in, quote, politics, right? And people just gravitated to her so much and lifted her up just because of how powerful her voice has been. And I like everything that she had to say. And especially, I think, right now in this time, we need somebody that's been on the ground doing the work. And so I do appreciate that about her. And it's true, I didn't know that much about her until they said that she could potentially be vice president. So that's when I went and did my research, which hopefully everybody should be doing when they think about who they're voting for. Yeah, I think she is one of those people who, like I said, the more people know her, the more they're going to like her.

I remember Bill Clinton in 92, and he wasn't well-known early on. He was governor of a small state in Arkansas. People weren't sure. Some of the first stuff they heard about him was a little controversial. And then they did that beautiful little film. He had some Hollywood producers produce something that they called The Man from Hope, Hope, Arkansas.

And it was a beautiful way of telling the story. And Charlemagne, I think if they end up telling Karen Bass's story very similarly, you know, they talk about a young woman, only child, growing up in L.A., getting involved in the civil rights movement, even when her parents didn't want her to,

putting herself at risk from the beginning, building a life, building a family, raising a child, having a bit of tragedy. And when you encounter her, for someone who's had that kind of heartbreak and tragedy, she still has such a positivity and a strength to her. I think she's going to be a secret weapon. I think she's going to be a secret weapon. I think she's going to be a secret weapon. She won't have as much flash out of the gate as Kamala, but I think in the same way people quickly started to like Stacey Abrams

once they got to know her, I think you'll see some of that magic if he chooses Congresswoman Bass. Carlos, for this season on The Carlos Watson Show, what are some of the other guests that you'll be having and topics that you'll be touching on uh you know we'll go everywhere we'll go from comedy to music from business to sports so uh uh we had tina knowles lawson on who was uh who was great and i love uh what she had to say about raising uh two fierce daughters really three uh in her mind. And that was an interesting conversation.

I didn't realize what a successful businesswoman she had been and how much that impacted what Beyonce had done. Very interesting to hear that. One of the most fun conversations I had was with Tashina Arnold. I really enjoyed her. We had a lot of fun. That was terrific. I'm looking forward to some of the business people like Mark Cuban,

who I think is going to be really interesting and strong. I think will be an important part of that. I think we're going to have some good conversations, Angela, with lots of different people, and also some folks from overseas as well. I'm looking forward to some people from overseas joining us too, trying to get a couple of the world leaders to join us on the show. Well, we appreciate you for checking in, brother, and good luck with everything.

Yes, we'll be watching. Really, I appreciate you guys having me on. I hope everybody stays safe, and I'll come back and see you guys. So actually, we'd love to have all three of you on the show. So I'm going to follow up with you about that. Sounds great, brother. I will shout to Carlos Watson for joining us this morning. And also shout to Taylor Rooks for joining us this morning.

Shout to Taylor Rooks. Yes, that's my girl. She's in the bubble. Make sure you follow her so you can see everything that's happening. Absolutely. Yeah, Taylor is like one of the people in media that I definitely have always followed but I follow her now a lot because she

is in the bubble and she gives me like these inside peeks of the bubble. So, salute to Taylor. You're doing a great job. Alright, well, Charlamagne, you got a positive note? Yes, this positive note comes from Bonnie Blair. She's a speed skater and I think we can all apply this to our life. She says, winning doesn't always mean being first.

Winning means you're doing better than you've done before. 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.
