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.

Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing.

Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise listen to historical records on the iHeartRadio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts

morning everybody it's DJ Envy Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we got a special guest in the building the legendary Taraji P H. Henson. Welcome. How are you? Yeah. How are you feeling? I feel great. I feel great. You know, whenever I come to New York and especially when I'm coming for Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation, you know, we coming to spread joy, spread a message that it's okay not to be okay. That's right. You started that conversation for people who don't know what the Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation is. Okay. Tell them. Yes. Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation, we launched in 2018. And it's really to eradicate the stigma around mental illness in the black community. And to bring more awareness to mental wellness in the black community. Because you know we don't talk about it.

That's right. We suffer in silence. We isolate. And we try to be strong. And we're dying. So out of my own necessity for my own help mental wellness and my son um i realized there was no real help out there for us so i had to do something about it so my best friend since the seventh grade tracy j tracy we launched the

boris lawrence henson foundation to hopefully to hopefully help a underserved community. How's your son doing? He's doing great. He's doing great. He's doing great. Yeah, he's doing great. He's maneuvering through, you know, trying to become being a young black man in America. You know, when those rose colored glasses come on.

I'm sure you remember those days, but he's maneuvered through it pretty well. Did he have a moment? Oh, he had a huge moment. But I was he picked the right mother because you know and it's interesting because i had a older gentleman tell me years ago um when i was on the television show called the division it was my first series regular and i came in upset about something with marcel he was little at the time and this guy said don't you ever give up on him don't ever give i don't even know if Mark is still alive to this day, but I just remember him.

I never forget him saying that. Every time I would have these issues with my son, I would be like wanting to choke him. I would hear his voice. Don't ever give up. And you can't give up on your kids. You just got to pray. Tracy sent me something. Oh, was it you or Pam?

Somebody sent me something about, I think it was a pastor who was saying, don't give up on your baby. I don't care if they strung out on drugs. Whatever their problem is, you wrap them up in prayer. Don't ever give up on your children. So what if you have to, Pam, can you set, you made me think, can you set boundaries with your kids if you need to? You have to set boundaries. You must set boundaries. Are you kidding me?

What type of boundaries? Boundaries. Like, what are you willing to accept and not accept? You have to. Because these kids nowadays come so privileged. They're not like us. Now, I was talking to somebody the other day. I was like, I don't even think I can't remember the last time I saw a group of children playing outside.

That's real. Yeah. I make mine go outside. You have to. Yeah. Because they have these devices now, which is not good for the mental. So these kids, they don't even know what fresh air is anymore, I don't think, you know?

It's just a weird time to be a young kid. That's true. You don't even tell kids. I mean, you smell like outside because they don't go out. They don't go outside, no. I can't remember the last time I seen girls playing double dutch or just riding bikes or anything. I guess the scariest thing is you don't want them to make any mistakes that's going to really cost them while they're coming around absolutely that's that was

your mother's fear that's every parent's fear that was your father's that's all of our fear forever like my mother to this day she tracks me i'm 53 and she tracks me she's like i just feel so much better knowing where you are and when i I see you're not moving, I can sleep at night. It never ends. It never ends. Well, you know, we don't talk about enough the resources that are available for the friends and family that have to deal with folks who have mental health issues. Exactly. You know, because it takes a toll on them, especially parents, because you feel like I can't fix my child.

It's something that i did wrong it's really hard um because that's your job to protect your kids and save them from then you know mishaps and when you can't you feel inadequate or you feel like um you're not doing your job it's hard parenting is not easy and then being a parent, I promise you I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I wouldn't. I just wouldn't. First of all, children need both parents. Boys and girls, I don't care.

You need both of your parents. If you're not living in the same household, you still need both. I mean, you know, regardless of whether your relationship works out, that has nothing to do with the kid. You still have to show up. Both parents for that child. Unfortunately, my son's to do with the kid. You still have to show up, both parents, for that child. Unfortunately, my son's father was murdered, so I didn't have an option. But, yeah, it's hard. It's tough.

Especially me being a boy mom. I need the man. I can't teach him how to be a man. I don't know how to be a man. And that was the hardest struggle for us because when he was becoming a man, he's looking me like you can't tell me anything what can you tell me your girl you know it's just the dynamic is it gets a little difficult in the young adult years like charlamagne was just saying you know so what do you do to make sure your mental is good remember when i went to bali you there for a long time too for a whole month yeah i had to i had to i was coming apart at the

seams and i didn't realize it because i was working and and god is god is amazing because god will put you in a situation where you have to sit down and i have been work in this doing this for over 20 years i have been working non-stop my entire career right and it was just this past year where I didn't have a lot you know I did Color Purple and I was just kind of like sitting around and not sitting around I had other stuff to do but as far as like a call sheet and showing up and knowing lines and that kind of work acting gigs um and it was for a reason because I needed to I needed to take care of me I was not in a good place mentally. I just really wasn't.

And and thank God I had that time to take care because Lord knows where I would be if I didn't have the time to really listen to myself and take time for myself. And I think we live in such a grind society. It's all about grinding. You can sleep when you're in that box. If you don't sleep now, you might get to that box a little sooner than you planned. We got more with Taraji P. Henson when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. Wake up. Good morning. We are The Breakfast Club. DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We're still kicking it with Taraji P. Henson. Charlamagne? What makes TPA stand out from everybody else? Because TPA specializes in scalp care, honey. You got to clean your scalp first.

And you have a head that is naked. You can see. Do you have anything for him? No protection. Do you have anything for him? No. He has a scalp, doesn't he? You still got to clean your scalp? You do. doesn't he? You still got to clean your scalp?

You do. You absolutely do. You still have to clean your scalp. And moisturize it so it don't get dry. Absolutely. That's what TPS is here for. You got something for him, boy. That's that.

She should get an award for that one now. This is what I came for. Go, go. But that's another way to bring joy. Oh, absolutely. I believe hair care is self-care, especially for women from ethnic backgrounds. Because we have curly, thick, big hair. And we look at doing our hair as a chore.

And so with the TPH line, it's like a spa experience. So you pamper yourself from scalp to toe. That's because you have a body line too so um the whole line was created um to change the narrative of you know taking care of yourself as a chore and look at it more as self-care like take yourself to the spa and and the reason i came up with that is because my care care line launched during the pandemic. People were afraid to go to salons and be around other people. So it was more like

bring the salon home to you. Yeah, you can. At an affordable price. At an affordable price. Can men use it? Absolutely men can use it. You have a scalp, right? Yes.

But I'm talking about guys that use like the Just For Men and the Beijing. Like, will it wash it out? Will it wash it? It'll wash it all off. Damn. Yeah, I hear soap and rain. Here comes the stab. Here comes the stab. Yeah, you try to be funny. Just for Men in the Beijing like will it wash it out will it wash it it'll wash it all off damn yeah I think

I hear soap and rain here comes the stab here comes the stab yeah you try to be funny no that's him that's him we had a whole conversation about this

because I think a lot of guys are doing this now they're getting the hair transplants in the Beijing in the Just for Men in the wigs and I'm like why like who are y'all doing this for

and so a lot of women caught up here they don't even like that they'd rather the guys just just be bald be bald or grow their salt and pepper beard just like y'all rather us just wear our hair and not wear wigs and stuff oh i don't care you know i know but i i hear that oh you know a lot of men just just be natural they don't believe that i think they just be

i think you should do whatever it is that makes you happy that makes you happy unless you a man if you're a man you should let the salt and pepper grow up men can't do because it looks ridiculous that's terrible they haven't learned how to blend it in like it don't look natural good you don't mind if it looks if it looks good right yes but some of those wigs look really good i'm not i'm trying to say this with a straight face i'm really not trying to be funny because i believe people should do what makes them feel good and if if women can wear lace runs men can too i haven't seen a good way to wear baby hairs. They've been going crazy with the baby hairs now. The baby hairs are a little out of control. They're bangs, they're not baby hairs. Baby hairs going down to your mouth like this, your nose, like your cheeks.

It's getting crazy now. You know what it is when the baby hair meet the eyebrow. Yeah that's getting crazy now. But I don't judge. Some people like it. And if that makes you happy, wear that baby bang, baby. Because that is a bang. I just want it to look natural. That is a bang on your forehead. But if that makes you feel good, wear that bang, baby. And get you some TPH products to slick it down.

That's right. That's right. That's right. Now, World Mental Health Day is coming up. Yes. What are some things people can do in their communities to create their own joy joints and joy challenges and all that good stuff? Get the best group.

If you like space, you like Uno, whatever it is that brings you joy. It could be sitting outside, sitting on a stoop, talking. Whatever it is, whatever brings you joy. I can't tell you what brings you joy. I know what brings me joy. The girls are hard. I got four of them. And my oldest

is at that age where she don't want nothing to do with daddy she's 15 oh my god and that's heartbreaking put your put your seat belt on my wife says it'll it'll she'll yeah it'll go away but how long though jesus you never know yeah then she's gonna get a boyfriend and she's really not gonna care about you five years it could be 10 you get's usually a ten year pretty much wait till she's 25 then she's gonna get married you're not yes because it's true it's you have a baby you're done it's like hang it up for the 20s that's right just just don't what yeah just wait for her to come back like 28 29 stop crying now yeah i don't think people realize how heartbreaking that's something that fathers don't talk about enough like that's heartbreaking when you're your little girl, all of a sudden don't want nothing

to do with you and act like they don't even like you. Yeah. Would you, would you say that the Boyle's Law Intensive Foundation is your life's work? Yeah, definitely my life, a life purpose, a purpose, a clear purpose. Like I thought it was acting. I'm going to touch the people through my work. And of course I did, but I just felt like that was to bring me here because this feels really fulfilling like I really because you could do

a performance at will you touch somebody will you change my I don't know I hope so but this is the work that is really changing and saving lives and um and I feel good about what I'm doing I feel important you are important for a number of reasons I know but this really I'm doing. I feel important. You are important. Absolutely. For a number of reasons. I know, but this really makes me feel like I have a life purpose. Beyond vanity and being pretty in front of a camera.

Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj envy charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we got our guest co-host don't call me white girl here now if you're just joining us yesterday uh we started

discussing don't call me white girl mona's her name her hair and uh we said it looked nice and she told us it took 16 hours to get done, and it cost $1,500, and it lasts two hours. And yesterday... 16 hours? I said 16 hours, did I? You said it lasts two hours. No, it lasts two months.

Two months. It lasts two months. So yesterday, she had an opportunity to shout out the braider, and she didn't shout out the braider. She said, don't call me for a shout out is her new name. So people were mad.

They were, you know, spamming her comments and really upset about that oh god they were pissed so we're asking 800-585-1051 should she have shouted out the person that braided her hair so uh charlamagne says no and then mona what do you think um ultimately i feel like you know first of all i'm into promotion advertisement i am an influencer i'm a self-built influencer um and a part of what i do is i promote people and i shout them out and i market to promotion and advertisement. I am an influencer. I'm a self-built influencer. And a part of what I do is I promote people and I shout them out and I market.

I don't think people understand how important it is to advertise. We got this huge boom of, black boom of entrepreneurs and I love it, but I don't think people understand that you have to allot some kind of budget to promotion. And when you do, you might pay somebody like me to promote your services.

Long story short, if I promote your services long story short if i get your services and i pay i typically do not shout you out now if i have a super califragilistic espialidosis experience and i want to talk about i will do so but i do not owe you that and that's the conversation i had before i get said service whether it's a maid service cleaning the crib or it's a massage we have a conversation and to be honest this this is the first time of me paying for my hair in four or five years. People don't really charge me for hair. If anything, people pay me to do my hair to get their name out there a little more. For the most part, a lot of y'all are speaking on stuff that you just don't know.

I understand ignorance is bliss. But in the game I'm in, that's just how it goes, baby. It's either or. If ignorance is bliss, how come more people ain't happy then? Because there's a lot of ignorant mother asses out here. But everything she said is absolutely right. mona you don't owe them people nothing you don't owe that woman nothing you paid her full price as you said if you like her services if she made you feel good and you feel like shouting her out you do it but this sense of

entitlement where people are doing things for folks and expecting shout outs on instagram or social media or if you're on the radio or podcast and they're expecting that, I don't respect that in any way, shape, or form. The services I tend to shout out are services I know that can be beneficial to other people. At this point in my life, it's

cardiovascular tests and mental health and colonics. Not colonics. Colonoscopy. Colonics too, though. I had a good colonic a couple years ago i did you like i want to get a colonic you never had a colonic i never had oh it's good yeah it's good i don't know if it actually is there any health benefits to it no but boy after you get off that table and you're sitting on that toilet and that first dump okay charlamagne said the dr flower's after all right you're so into it you know whatever yeah you know thanks for that you know into it. Well, you know, whatever. You know, thanks for that.

You know what's interesting, though? What? You know what feels better than the colonic? What? I don't want to know. That prep the day before the colonoscopy. Okay. It's rough.

Oh, oh, oh. But don't nothing empty your stomach and flatten you out like that prep before that colonoscopy. This is more love. I think we should circle back around. We were talking about your hair. I'm just shouting out services. One thing I will say is the braider. I want to make that clear.

The braider was happy with whatever happened. She was happy her braids were even on the show. She does really well. She was happy she got that $1,500. Of course. And, you know, like I said, she's a businesswoman. We discussed it before. Her books, she's booked in me.

So me shouting her out probably could have gave her an influx that she might have couldn't handle or didn't even want right now. So I want to make that clear. She didn't feel entitled. She was okay with everything. She even caught the joke or the laughing

part about it. It was the people, especially you Breakfast Club followers on Instagram. Y'all were grinding the girl up. Did you shout her

out? You said you shouted her out on Instagram? I might have shouted her out a little bit. Go ahead and

shout her out. Braids by Nay out of Philadelphia on Germantown Avenue. Shout out to my girl. Shout out to my girl. She's a beast. And y'all can't get in anyway she booked but at the end of the day i'm with y'all if i pay for a full service that doesn't entitle me i don't have to shout you

out i can if i want to but if i pay full price i'm paying for full price and like you said people pay for you to shout them out that's what we do they pay for you to shout them out on instagram they pay for you to visit their store they pay for you to do a out. That's what we do, baby. They pay for you to shout them out on Instagram. They pay for you to visit their store. They pay for you to do a lot of those things. And unless you're giving me a discount, I don't owe anybody anything. That's how I feel. But let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this?

Hey, good morning. This is Constance. Hey, you think don't call me white girl. Should I shout the lady out? No. My thoughts are $1,500. Is that what she paid? Yes. That's the shout out.

First of all, you paid way too much money. I don't know what's going on with these salads and these prices. That's freaking crazy. But if you bow down and decided to shout out because a bunch of strangers, then you the fool. No offense. That's right.

Tell her again. That's ridiculous. Because she did it twice. If you bow down and you shouted her out, then you the fool. No offense. That's right. Tell her again. That's ridiculous. Because she did it twice. If you bow down and you shouted her out, they think you the fool. Tell her again. I'm with you. She done called me a fool twice. Don't let Charlamagne gas you, man. Slow down with that fool being.

Hello, who's this? Oh, this is TK. How you doing? Good, TK. You think Don't Call Me White Girl should have shouted out her braider? Yeah, she should have shouted it out, man. Why? She should have shouted it out.

Just on the strength that it could have really changed her life. It could really help her. Not like $1,500. Not like $1,500. The money's going to run out, though, Charlamagne. And that's her fault. If she tried to do it with $1,500, which I'm hearing is too much. It's not too much.

It's not too much. Don't talk too much for 16 hours a week. Look at his braids, though, for real. Come on. $100 an hour.'m hearing is too much. It's not too much. It's not too much for $16 a ride. Look at these braids, though. For real. Come on. $100 an hour. Basically. So how many of those she probably do a day? No, she's only going to do one a day. That's a lot of money. That is a lot of money.

What are you talking about? It's 2023. These braids were $2,300 back in the day. It's 2023. That's about right. $1,500 seems like a lot. You think it's $1,000? $16,000 straight teeth. That's $9,000 a week if she do

four, five heads. My girl living good, baby. My girl is very successful. If she does four a day, that's $6,000 a week. She can't do four a day. Okay, let's just say she do five. That's $75,000.000 wait a minute she has a person that braids them down

so it's two of her so she has to pay that person she has an assistant and she needs that help count that in two either way if she do one a day for six days

she can't do one a day she'll be beat she'll probably take Sunday off that's nine grand a week she do four a day that's 6,000 a week the girl living well she's a very successful

black woman she do four a week that's 24,000 a month. Has a beautiful family. See? You know, she doing well. And she knew. We had a conversation.

She knew full well what was going on. And she was like, oh, that's cute. Breakfast, that's great. I want, you can pay me by every way. Cash, every way. That's right. And I respected it and played with her, paid her before she even started. Jessica.

Yes. Good morning. Good morning. What do you think? You think don't Call Me White Girl Should've shouted her out? Uh, okay I respect that she paid $1,500

But I feel like because she said Yeah, I'm gonna be on a breakfast club And the girl was hard to get into Then maybe she should've said something But I still respect that she paid $1,500 And she took no breaks So yeah, I feel like she should've called her out Man, please

She paid for a service So, yeah, I feel like she should have called her out. Man, please. You paid for a service. So, basically, what they're saying is every service that we pay for throughout the day deserves a shout-out. Correct. Like, what service did this woman provide that's any different than any service that we're going to do today? Car wash guy, Chick-fil-A person, takeout guy, door dash guy, all that. No, people doing services. We paying our money. That's that. Jay. Yo. Yo, what. We paying our money. That's that.

Jay. Yo. Yo, what you think? You think don't call me white girl should have shouted out that head braider, bro? No, I don't think she had to. I don't think it was

her responsibility to shout her out. But what I do think is that you guys probably kind of set her up and made it seem like she had to because when she picked her up that she was on her feet

for 16 hours, no break. And the situation is that y'all asked her, well, do you want to shout her out? Her response to, and I don't need to shout her out. That's what I think people got mad at. I don't shout her out, but it was a response. I thought that response was very valid

because Mona said, she didn't say, hell no, I'm not going to shout her out. She said, hell no, I paid for this. You know what I mean? Being that she paid full price, she understands her value and her worth and what her words mean. And she knows that shouting people out is an endorsement. Why is her product more special than mine, important than mine? If my product is promotion and her product is braiding, then why should her product come before mine?

We both have children. We both have families. We both have goals. That's right. All right. Well, what's the moral of the story? The moral of the story is gratitude begins where a sense of entitlement ends that's a good one that's what the moral of the story poetic charlamagne put that on a shirt

it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj envy charlamagne the guy we The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. He smelled like he just smoked an ounce before he came in. Birds flying high, you know how I feel. He just posted a... Sun in the sky, you know how I feel. On social media a couple of weeks ago. Breeze drifting on by, you know how I feel.

The next time he comes up here, he's going to bring a folding chair. But he didn't bring the folding chair. It's a new life for me, yeah. Don Al Rollins is here, ladies and gentlemen. Don Al Rollins is here, sir. My name is me. How y'all doing? What up, Don Al?

It's me. What's wrong with you, man? First off, there's nothing wrong with me. I'm in a better place in my life because I've followed Charlamagne for years with his bull shit about mental health, right? Yes. I mean, everybody don't need mental health. That's what I'm trying to say, son.

That is not true. You do a lot of things that are beneficial to your mental health, and? Yes. I mean, everybody don't need mental health. That's what I'm trying to say, son. That is not true. You do a lot of things that are beneficial to your mental health, and I bet you I know why you in a good mood. I know, but nobody want to hear mental health. Because you decided to move to Ohio and become a River Ninja, so now you be one with nature. First of all, that's incorrect. I'm a River Ninja, okay?

Yes, yes. So it's incorrect. He's a River Ninja. That's my mental health issues. Yes. He always try to tell somebody they need mental health. Correct. Therapy.

Do you believe that everybody needs therapy? I don't believe everybody needs therapy, but I believe that a lot of people need some form of healing. We all dealing with different traumas that we have to unpack and deal with at different points in our life. So you don't believe in I'm taking it to my grave? No. I think you could take it to your grave, but I think some of the things you take to your grave cause you to go to your grave a little bit earlier. Yeah, but if you're going to go to your grave and you're going to be gone, why do you care about that? Because that's the stuff that was stressing you out

you'll be surprised how much are you trying to give me therapy right now no i'm just saying you'll be surprised you'll be surprised how many things that you unpack that uh add years to your life man you do i agree with you in some sort of mental health thing and i you know but i too i will say this it is a stigma with black people we think we don't need mental health that's right we don't need therapy you ask brother you need. We don't need therapy. You ask a brother, you need therapy. Why are you about to cry? What's wrong, man? I'm not about to cry.

Come on. What's going on? Is there something you want to tell us about that? I'm not doing this. I'm not doing this. I'm not doing this. I'm not here for that, son. I'm not here for that, son.

It's me. Hi. I'm the problem. It's me. Yo, and I'm going to tell you. And the reason why I quoted that song, because I never thought that I needed any type of mental intervention until I got connected. And I'm one of a few.

I'm a black Swifty. What does that mean? I'm a person that supports Taylor Swift and her music. And not that I'm a super fan of Taylor Swift. That song, It's Me. Hi. You know what I'm talking about, right? Yeah.

I'm the problem. It's me. At tea time. Is talking about right yeah I'm the problem it's me at tea time is that why you started calling yourself a narcissist I stare directly no first off I stare directly into the sun but never in the mirror it must be so exhausting always searching for the anti-hero that song was a song that made me say to myself you know what and the reason why i like that song the first step and you're meant to go getting healed is under identifying that you accountability might be the problem that is so crazy that the brother the black man has been telling you this for years but you listen to the white woman damn you know you're trying to get

dr umar on me don't even try don't think about it no he ain't been telling that you've been telling him for years to go to therapy and look at himself in the mirror and help yourself out. He ain't said it like that. He said it like this. You need help. That's different from... That's different from... Maybe you need some therapy.

So you listen to the white woman, but not the guy that looks like you. I'm not doing that. You can't tell me. Me, look at the sun, not the mirror. Very horrible melody. Don't tell me. Me. Look at the sun. Not the mirror. Ooh. Very horrible mentally. Don't ever do that again. But I sit, and I haven't seen a therapist yet, but I have contemplated it because I deal

with, as we all do, childhood trauma. Now, what's the biggest childhood trauma that bothers you? You want to know? Yes, sir. I don't even know if I can say this, and y'all going to laugh at me. I'm not going to laugh at you. I promise you we're not going to laugh. When I to know? Yes, sir. I don't even know if I can say this and y'all gonna laugh at me. I'm not gonna laugh at you. I promise you we're not gonna laugh.

When I grew up, and I remember. No, I'm not laughing at you. That's so foul, man. That's just the way you started, man. Your voice cracking

for no reason. The man said he's having a problem. I'm serious. I'm serious. And see, that's my, who talks like that? Master P. That's right. I'm serious. And see, this is... That's my... You're right.

Who talks like that? Master P. That's right. He talk like... No, Birdman. Birdman. A lot of people from New Orleans talk like that. Okay, all jokes aside. My childhood trauma, it comes from when I grew up.

Not like Envy. Envy came from a two-parent household. I did. Right? Yes. I grew up and I had flakes with no frost. So you were poor. And you got two different types of bitches.

You got bitches that grew up with cornflakes and frosted flakes. Look at you, Envy. You had frosted flakes. No, my parents actually cooked me bacon, sausage, and pancakes every morning. Damn. So you had breakfast breakfast. I had breakfast breakfast every morning. And I'm going to tell you, people that grew up with no sugar on their cornflakes, they

built different. They usually go to jail. They usually probably have an issue with their temper and violence and stuff. And I grew up not having the experience of at the end of a bowl of cereal, the milk tasting like sugar. When I grew up, it was cornflakes. And at the end of that bowl, your milk tasted the same way it started. And I think that's a lot of my mental issues come from not having experience to eat Frosted Flakes.

That's why I know. So you're poverty growing up, that's all. Yeah. And it hurt me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, but I learned to be tough, but I didn't want to be tough. Are you triggered when you see boxes of Frosted Flakes? Oh, God, hell yeah. When you hear Tony Tiger say, there's a raid. F*** you and that Tiger. Yeah, I have a problem

with that, but I'm working through it. I'm getting help. Speaking of which, you're doing f***ing in that, Tiger. Damn. Yeah, I have a problem with that. But I'm working through it. I'm getting help. Speaking of which, you're doing f***ing Andrew Schultz. Okay. And the reason why I say that, I really appreciate Andrew Schultz, what he did for his career, what he's done. He's self-made. But I saw a clip of y'all talking about it.

And he, in your face, tried to compare Taylor Swift to Michael Jackson. And you hee-hee hard with that. Donnell, you old enough to know when you see a good edit. We had a 30-minute conversation, an argument about Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift, and Beyonce. And he said Taylor Swift is on the same level as Michael Jackson, and you said, yeah, hee-hee. You didn't say that?

No, I didn't say that. What did you say? I said Taylor Swift might look like Michael Jackson. Okay, good point. But not really. But no. First off, you can't put nobody in the same sentence with Michael Jackson. I know that.

I think it's disrespectful even when they say it a weekend. But why didn't you stop him? I did. No, you didn't. You saw a 30-second clip down there. It was a 40-minute conversation. And yes, Wes,

speaking of that 30-minute clip, you saw an edited clip of me one time and you ran with it. What clip? That clip when they say I ran out on the Tony, when I got roasted

and left the stage. Oh, yeah. You ran with that. You couldn't wait. You was like, oh, we got him. And what happened was I was on Kill Tony's podcast,

right, and I had a sushi date at one of the best sushi spots in Texas. I was already in the pockets for an hour. I said, man, I got to get out of here. I said, I need to go to the bathroom, right? And I never came back. Oh, he got a hold of that edit on the Brilliant Idiots or Idiots Brilliant or whatever they call it. Brilliant Idiots, yeah.

Yeah, Idiot Brilliance. What is it? Brilliant Idiots. He couldn't. He was like, look at him. He ran. So I do know what a doctor video. But they did that to you on purpose, though.

They put Donnell Rawlings walks out on a Kill Tony podcast. But that's what people do. They put out the headline that they want. I didn't even defend Michael Jackson. That's my question. I did defend Michael Jackson. And then you let the white man go on. He's not the white man?

Andrew? Yeah. Yeah, he a white man. Why you have to say his name like that? What? Andrew? yeah yeah he's a white man why you have to say his name like that Andrew of course he's a white man he's a wonderful white man but that's different

between Michael Jackson and Beyonce it's a 40 minute clip and Andrew did exactly what he was supposed to do because if you watch the clip really in the beginning he goes

oh you know I know how to get a rise out of people he's a provocateur is that fair to say? yes and that's what the podcast world is coming to. And I believe the podcast world is coming to the point, you might not feel a certain

way about something, but you know what pushes it down. You know what? You built a career off of it. I see where you're going, but I take it a step further because you're a comedian, so you can understand this. Humorous. Sarcasm is a lost art. Satire is a lost art.

People don't respect it, though, because they take everything too serious. That's right. That's right. That's what satire is. That's right. Oh, did he mean that? He did a deadpan. That's right. he's standing in your face he's saying but my point to taylor swift i want to go see one of her concerts no joke i want to see it but when you talk about michael jackson taylor swift perfect example you play a taylor

swift song in the hood taylor swift man what did i say taylor smith man you went to high school stop correcting me, please. Girl, I was going to ask you. You didn't see Beyonce's show? No, I want to see. You keep talking about Taylor Swift, but you'll be talking about the queen Beyonce. Maybe you're not paying attention to this interview. Maybe you're focused on something else. Got to call a lawyer or something.

I don't know what your focus is. That's not the point I'm making. Man, get them off you this morning. I don't know what I'm saying. All right, we're not moving. We got more with Donnell. When we come back, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. No, no. No, no. All right, well, don't move. We got more with Donnell. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine.

I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.

Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade 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.

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,

It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with actor, comedian Donnell Rollins.

Friends of the room, Charlamagne. How long have you been making money doing what you do, Donnell? Making money? Yes. Okay. I've been doing it for over 30 years. But you've been a successful comedian for at least 15, 20. I would say 15 or 10.

That's a long run. It all depends on what you're doing. That's a great run. That's a great run. That's a great run. This is the point I'm making. Okay. With these kids that were like, okay, you get popping for a couple years, whatever. That's a great run. That's a great run. This is the point I'm making. Okay. With these kids that were like, okay, you get popping for a couple years, whatever.

That's cool. But try and see where your relevance is going to be 30 years from now. Absolutely. And that's the biggest thing. I'm just happy that I'm still in the game. People, when they start, they have different things they want. Nowadays, like, I want to be rich and I want to be famous. I never wanted to do that.

The only thing I wanted to do was be good. And I realized, and people don't think about that no more. That's right. If you're good at something and you got the work ethics, you will blow up. And also being happy at the lowest level of your career. I mentor people. The first thing they say is, Donnell, what should I do? I'm like, first off, in entertainment, you have to be able to be happy being broke.

That's right. If you can't find no happiness in a struggle, you're not going to get the rewards of it. If you think about it, Envy, you're very successful. the rewards of me if you think about it envy you're very successful Charlemagne I hate to say it you're very successful mm-hmm oh you share stories why say hate to say it because I hate to say anything good about this okay I got you haunted me a South Carolina right I was in his hometown I went to the hotel everybody's like every time I go to they like this what's up you're Charlemagne I said say, f*** Charlemagne. I go to my hotel room. This f***ing cover of one of the magazines.

That's right. Charleston Magazine, baby. I hated that shit. And then I was like, here on the front page. I kept flipping and flipping. It was more him. Let me go get it. Let's get it. Nah, don't burn that shit.

Jesus Christ. But I lost my thought. You know how weird. What was I saying? You was talking about ageism. And you said, no, you said, I'm successful. Charlemagne's successful. I don't know where you was going with that.

Yeah, what I was saying was was but when you talk to your people and people always they look at you like oh Envy got everything Envy made a good life for herself and his family but I guarantee you when you're talking

to your friends and you're talking to people and you're mentoring people you don't talk about where you are now the most fulfilling stories for you are the ones this is what we did

process the process I remember when we was in a Volkswagen bug we was going here we ran out of gas those are the stories and that's what people don't connect with anymore right This is what we did. The process. I remember when we was in a Volkswagen bug. We was going here. We ran out of gas. Those are the stories.

And that's what people don't connect with anymore. Right. You are absolutely right. And this is why I respect anybody who's been in it for a decade. Like, even all the youngins, right? When we talk about the DC Young Fly, the Jess Hilarious. Those are two I respect. They started on social media. A lot of social media.

I'm with you. But you know what they did outside of social media? They went and they developed other skill sets, like being on that stage. Right. And to your point, me and Rodney Barnes were just talking about this yesterday. Shout out to Rodney Barnes. Shout out to Rodney. I want some more work.

Go ahead. You have to be good at something. We come from an era where you had to have some type of skill set. Correct. There's no skill set that happened to be had no more. But going back to what you said, you protect those two. You said, Jess Alaris, I remember years ago, she slid in my DM. I could tell it was somebody that was interested in comedy.

And this was a time when she probably had 10,000 followers. Y'all from the same area? Yeah. And she was like, yo, OG, what do I need to do? And the only thing I said was, get on stage. I said, get on the mic. And everything you need to learn about this business. You're going to learn from Mike. There's no shortcuts, you know, but I respect her career because she put the work no matter

what you want to say about her. She put the work. You can be good at something, but if you don't have the work ethics, you're going to be dead. But it's like what you said, you know, you have to be happy being broke. Right. And the reason I say that is, is I started as a DJ, right? It didn't matter if I was getting $200 a party, a hundred dollars a party i enjoyed it like i was in my basement practicing same thing with you as comedy same thing with charlamagne with radio it didn't

matter now it's great to make money off of the things you love to do but a lot of these kids now do it for the likes they do it for the clout they do it for for this which a lot of times is not longevity and then you say something to them the first they they do is like, you're old-fashioned. No, I'm not saying that. I am from the old school, and I'm from a place where you had to be good. I'm from a place where you had to have a skill set. You know what I'm saying? I had an argumental conversation with a young lady like three or four years ago.

She said, I do comedy. I'm a comedian. And I was like, let me see some of your stuff. She put a phone up. She was like, oh, I got this clip. I was like, that's not a comedian. She said, yes, it is. I said, that's not a comedian. She said, yes, it is. I said, that's not a comedian.

But she broke it down. She showed me the definition. Comedian is someone that entertains an audience through humor. So her definition is true to her. It's not true to me. You're talking about stand-up. Stand-up. See, when I was coming up, you didn't have to separate them them you didn't have to separate stand-up comedian comedian the minute you heard

the word comedian you was thought to be a stand-up comic let me ask you a question outside of dave is there any comedian that you hate going behind i don't want to say hate because i've always felt it a challenge it's not too many people that can't go behind for different reasons i have a different type of energy i will say it's crazy asking that question because it happened to me the other day and i haven't felt this pressure in a while i was doing royale show mixtape show shout out to royale and i was looking at lineup and george wallace oh oh gee oh gee oh it was blah blah blah blah george wallace donnell and i'm like this i'm so caught up and watching an icon, like a legend.

He don't get his props. Came up with the sign. Like, George Wallace has been a beast for years. One of the only black guys that held a Las Vegas residency as long as he did. Maybe like 15, 20 years. But he's a beast. And the thing about it, at his age, 40 years, you can still tell he still loves it. Right.

He was on stage ripping, standing up. And I'm like, oh, you next. Still went up there and did my thing. Switched the energy up. But, nah, I don't ever be afraid to go behind anybody. There are comments I saw. I worked with Tony Roberts recently. And I said, Tony, damn, I forgot how it feel to come behind somebody

that just ate the room up. There's people out there, LaVell Crawford is another one. There are people out there that rip the rooms. I think after a while you get a certain amount of experience, you know how to either ride the energy or switch it. And I really believe pound for pound, I can go

with anybody in the country. Let me say this, donnell is one of the funniest stand-up comics in the world yes i gotta say that or not he'll be sensitive and say i'd never say anything good about him even though i say this all the time even when he's not around no you don't that's a lie you don't i mean we just got to this point because of a lot of therapy that's not true no we've i say it all the time no i respect you one of the nicest and i think out of comedians i think you and capone are the two comedians I've seen the most. Like, I must have seen you about 15 times.

And then you see me, like, this is what I tell people. You see me now working arenas. Not because I'm signing an arena, because I'm with people. You see me in these high-profile shows. But you see me from, like, the Naki Saki days, the Manhattan Profit days, when it was really... So did I! Where? Caroline's Comedy Club

you talking about the hole in the wall to get you there you talking about I'm talking about shooting outside I'm talking about you know

pistols the bike playing through the DJ sound we was trying to at Caroline's it was a chitlin circuit we were trying to go from that

to Caroline's that was a rite of passage Caroline's Comedy Cellar like it was a lot of us. We did knocky talkies. And then one thing I'll say about black comedy, when we weren't accepted in different places, we created our own opportunity.

Peppermint Lounge. Perfect example. You know about the Peppermint Lounge? Yes, and everybody in there breathless thing, but it was called the Peppermint Lounge. Yeah, it was. It did. There was COVID in there before we even had a title for it. That's crazy.

I'm sure. But Peppermint Lounge was, it was a workout ground. If you did Peppermint Lounge and you rep Peppermint Lounge, that was the approval or let them know that you would do as good as Def Jam. Bob Sumner. Yeah, Bob Sumner. That's my guy. And when I did it, when I did an audition for Peppermint Lounge, Royale Watkins was

hosting. You get like seven minutes. And I was a young comic. I was only doing comedy for six months when I got the audition. I was on stage. I had seven minutes. I did five, and I'm ripping. And Royale comes to the side stage and he said, Bob loves you.

You got the show. I immediately said, thank you. Good night. Because if I would have took a chance, another two minutes, and got booed or something, it would have been done. I was going to ask you, you know, recently people were mad at Steve Harvey for tweeting, what stand-up comedian do you think is not funny? And they said it feels like, first, maybe he didn't post it. It was one of his handlers. And two, it's pitting against other stand-up comedians. Do you think Steve was wrong for tweeting that?

Because it's Steve Harvey. No, because Steve Harvey, as successful as he is, he built his career off of stand-up. So I still believe that he really is passionate about it. I don't know if he'll ever do it again because it's so hard for him to level. The way people see him,

they see him as a straight family man, like PG-13. But Steve Harvey didn't start off like that. So I think he wouldn't be able to have the voice he wanted and maintain the deals and money that he has. That's real. All right, we got more with Donnell Rollins

when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with comedian Donnell Rollins. Charlamagne?

Now, listen, we had Joe Coy up here, right? And he said that he moved his baby mama in the house directly across the street from him. Because he wanted to be a great co-parent. You're a great parent. I watch your hashtag all the time. What is it? No, co-parenting with a narcissist. But I never said who the narcissist was. I never can tell i don't know you know okay it's two sides

it's her side and my side okay okay some people know but i'm gonna tell you and i talk about that in my routine one of the toughest things to do fortunately you lucky that you never had to do that but the reason why i say it's tough because you have this kid that you're raising and then you still have an emotional connection to that person which sometimes hinders the relationship you have with your kid oh so you still love her do i still love her yeah no i will always love her because when i look at it she gave me the best thing in my life that's right you know i'm saying now rekindling getting back together that's non-existent so would you do it that was the question would you buy your ex a house across right next to you right right by the river yeah i would but it all depends

on i'm gonna tell you somebody that an example of i think this might be two happy co-parents wayne brady wayne brady he's a y'all now wayne brady just came out and said he's he's paying sex he's probably a pan pan pansexual when i hear the word pan i feel like that's a person like gonna have fun at any party. It's like, ain't no more b****es in there, okay? Ain't no more b****es in there, okay? We going in. Ain't no more y'alls in there, okay? It's us.

It's us. It's we's, y'alls, dem's, day's party over here. Any pronoun can get it. Y'all, y'all, y'all, y'all, y'all, y'all. Boom. So you partied with him before? No, Wayne Brady's a good guy. That was the best one.

No, I'm just saying, but. Man, the any pro now can get it t-shirt is funny as hell. You should sell that to him. Any pro now can get it. Any pro now can get it. Is Wayne Brady going to have to get it with a bitch? But I used to think that was weird. His ex-wife and his ex-wife

either new husband or boyfriend, they all coexisted together. That's how it should be though, right? Yeah, but that's weird. Because most people, when it's not together, you say f*** her and f*** him. And you definitely don't want a broad

to get happy before you. Man, you stupid. What? You do a breakup and you find out she got happy before you? You stupid, man. Come on, son.? You do a breakup, and you find out she got happiness for you? You stupid, man. Come on, son. If you get a breakup, and your wife is out there living her best life, son.

You got to find happiness for her. You want to be happy first. I'm like, did you have it? Okay, me neither. But Wayne Brady was living in the house during COVID. He stayed with them during COVID, right? Yeah, yeah, I remember. But my point is, I was like this.

What type of relationship is this where they all was good? You know, that's extreme co-parenting, but there are examples of people that make it work. You know, but the key to co-parenting or to break up is when, like, I'm telling you, the other person. But the cry again, man. No, no, no. This is really touching you. And when they start dating again, when they start finding their happiness, then they don't have time to f*** with you. Damn. And when they start dating again, when they start finding their happiness, then they don't have time to f*** with you. When two people break up, whatever, one person is out there still like,

you know, like trying to find himself. And the other person is happy. That creates a lot of drama. And it makes that person want to go at you harder. It's people out there. It's guys out there. And that thing is, I'm going to take her. I'm like, you know what?

This is going to be very hard to say. But if you're going to take her, take the whole bitch. Don't just take the pussy. Take all the responsibilities. Take her family. Take the mortgage. Take all that. And take her whole punk ass uncle.

Don't just take the pussy. That's your family now. Anybody can take the pussy. Take the whole chick. Whole queen. Take the whole queen. Don't tell ahead, man. Anybody can take the pussy. Take the whole chick. Whole queen. Take the whole queen. Donnell's stupid, man. Listen, Donnell's gonna be headlining the 2023 New York Comedy Festival

on November 9th through the 11th, right? At the Hard Rock Hotel. Hard Rock Hotel. And then I'm gonna reshoot my special. Why are you reshooting it? Before that, can we give away... Hold on, hold on. Before you tell us that, can we give away a pair of tickets? That's what Donnell's here for. He's here to promote that and for us to give away a pair of tickets. Can we give a pair of tickets? You know what Donnell's here for. He's here to promote that and for us to give away a pair of tickets. But that's part of it.

Can we give a pair of tickets? You know what I'm really here for? I want to say hello to you guys. And it's a good week. And the reason why, because good friend Dave Spill, and I'm not name dropping. It's Louie the Dave. It's his birthday. He turns 50.

For what? You know, the 24th. Tomorrow. His birthday's tomorrow. Oh, yeah. So I really came up here to say happy birthday to Dave. Okay. Also, to say, make sure you check out Luenell's new Netflix special.

I heard Luenell killed it. Somebody told me he killed it. They told me it's like awesome. I heard it's really good. And the reason why, and I'm going to tell you why. And I don't have a problem promoting my friends.

Shout out to Earthquake. He did his thing. Luenell, Tony Woods is on deck. Dave decided he wanted to do a series called The Home Team. And these were comedians that had been doing it

for at least 30 years that had been passed up on that that he felt needed an opportunity. Right. In the case, it was me, Tony Woods, Lou Nail, and Earthquake. I saw y'all earlier this year. You, Dave, and Chris, and Noah Charleston. You called a body then. Always.

You ain't going to do what you did. You ain't going to do that, though. What? One of them jokes you ain't going to do. Who? No. I guarantee you. No, I don't believe you. I don't believe you. I don't going to do what you did. You ain't going to do that, though. What? One of them jokes you ain't going to do. Who? No. I guarantee you. No.

I don't believe you. I don't believe you. I don't believe you. You did that because everybody had their phones on. They might cut it. You did that because everybody had their phones on. You ain't going to do that. They might cut it.

Who's they? They. They. Y'all. Them. Okay. Us is might cut it. but it's gonna go but i think what you sometimes you don't was people trying to tell you something you don't actually see what they're trying to say

because it's too hard for you to take the truth it's too hard for you to deal with somebody and i see something you told me you don't remember the story and it's been part of my life for a long time i tell other people i did a music video or something and this was me and you coming off of Geico and I was like, I did what everybody do. Yo, could you post this for me? I hit this twice. Could you post this for me?

No post. And I'm like, this is my man. Could you post this for me? No post. Finally said, Donnell, build your own arc and they will come. I don't know if you remember you telling me that. You told me that.

That's why you, that's why you made it about the whole mental therapy, the mental health thing. Yeah, he didn't post the thing in the next post was mental health. My beef started because he wouldn't post my shit.

I used to say that a lot though, build your own arc. But I'm going to tell you what. What? It made me so mad. I said, oh, I'm going to build my own arc. But still,

I feel like you still should have posted it. You've been terrorizing me on social media ever since. Over the arc. You know what's art. You know. But let me ask you a question, right? So I come support you. You play with me on social media ever since? Over the art. Noah's art. You know. But let me ask you a question, right?

So I come support you. You play with me when I come to your shows. Why you never play with him when he comes to your shows? Don't play with nobody more than you play with me. First of all, he don't come to my shows. That's a lie. Why you lying like that? First of all, he come to show.

I just said off that point. When it comes to attendance of a comedy show, I respect you because I will say you always pull up. Every time I did Caroline's, your show was Sunday. Right. And the fact you used to come with your wife or whatever. And I can't work with my wife to tour your Caroline shows. When?

This was years ago. This was one time I came in 20. But I wouldn't have f***ed with you then. That's different. What you mean? You was on stage talking about how we going to get fired. From Geico? No, from Breakfast Club.

And you made a whole joke talking about one day you walk in the radio station, you'd be like, Charlamagne Tha God, DJ Envy, Angela Yee. And then one day you hear, DJ Envy, Angela Yee. They take you off the energy. That's right.

It's a morning show weather. We don't know. Wait till tomorrow. Let me know about that life. 800-585-1051. We're giving away a pair of tickets. It's not in November. New York, I know I'm up here too early.

Again, came up here to wish. Say what's up, you guys. Wish my brother, H-Pill, happy 50th birthday. Shout out to Ricky Hughes. I got some big plans for her coming up. She's one of the best to do it. You know, and this is the way I feel in my career right now. I've been doing it for 30 years.

But for some reason, now it feels like something magical is happening. And that's because of a lot of things. The team. You know, you do this for a long time, but this person is in the right position. like something magical is happening and that's because of a lot of things the team you know you do this for a long time but this person is in the right position but now it feel like i'm surrounded by the right people and it's about to go out of the atmosphere and you're getting older and you're getting wiser that's what people don't understand about comedians radio personalities whoever if you truly oh yeah i gotta go i'm sorry i got another man you man all right look you know

i'm trying to give you some props. You know what I'm saying? Get your ass out of here. You couldn't wait to do that. You couldn't wait to do that. That was Donnell Rollins, ladies and gentlemen. Bill Burr ain't calling you. Jesus Christ. Donnell Rollins is the Breakfast Local Boarding.

The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Make sure you tell them to watch out for Florida Man. The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. Yes, you are a donkey. A Florida Man attacked an ATM for a very strange reason. It gave him too much money. Florida Man is arrested after deputies say he rigged the doors to his home in an attempt to electrocute his pregnant wife.

Police arrested an Orlando man for talking a flamingo. To the breakfast club, bitch. Donkey of the day. Put Charlemagne to God. I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this. Well, do all this your own people, okay? Donkey of the day for Wednesday, August 30th goes to Renee Don Skoglon. I know I pronounced her last name wrong.

I'm wrong, yes. Okay, but Renee is from Florida, ladies and gentlemen. And 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 today is no exception. Okay. Renee is 30 years old and she will spend two years under community control, which is a former house arrest, eight years on probation, and we'll have to pay a fine of more than 17 grand. And personally, I don't think that is enough. In fact, I think she should get actual prison time. Why, Uncle Sharla?

Why are you wishing prison time on this woman? Well, let's go to Fox 13 Tampa for the report, please. South Dakota resident Renee Scoglin is far from home. And in legal hot water that even surprised the judge. This is really unbelievable. Skoglund's trail of lies started when she decided to come to Tampa Bay and cheat on her husband. That she felt guilty about this due to her marital status and she wanted to get checked for sexual transmitted diseases. But she wanted to get tested for free so she decided to call 9-1-1. Skogllan made up a story about having car trouble and pulling over on the side of the road.

An unknown male approached her. Because her face was covered, she couldn't describe her attacker. When police checked her cell phone and found this Walmart surveillance video of Koglan buying the rope herself. She confessed to making the whole thing up she was charged with making a false police report and decided to take a plea deal she's not even from florida she's from south dakota came to florida and became a florida fool because it's in the water all right this woman made up a false rape report in florida to get a free std test let's just sit here for a second and take that in let me like my Palo Santo. Just think about that.

Renee made up a false rape report in Florida to get a free STD test. Believe all women, huh? Define all. Okay, that's what we should have asked when that foolish-ass slogan became part of our lexicon. What do you mean by all? Because women like Renee can't possibly be under the umbrella of all, correct? I have so many questions. Why didn't she just go to the clinic?

Okay, I did some research, and by research, I mean Google, and all I did was type in free STD testing in Florida. It's a whole website called saferstdtesting.com. It tells you all the clinics that are near you. It says right here, if you're looking for cheap STD testing clinics in the state of Florida to get an HIV, her herpes chlamydia gonorrhea syphilis or hepatitis screening for yourself or your partner you can get tested today by selecting an option below to find an affordable std test clinic near you same day std testing locations also available with results in one to two days why didn't you just go to a free clinic now renee at the time

was married and she lied about this sexual assault in an attempt to get a free std test after she had a one night stand in tampa so she cheated on her husband felt guilty about it so she decided to go get checked out for a std and instead of just going to a doctor or a clinic she decided to lie about being raped so she could get a free std test renee what was your plan b okay if that was plan a what was plan b this couldn't have been the only plan not to mention you lied about a rape claim so you could get a free std test so clearly you hard on money but you had money to buy rope we looked it up uh the hollow braid rope that she bought is 22 okay how much is an std test in florida according to google the cost of an STD test will vary by location and test type.

Some clinics, usually community or non-profit clinics, offer free or low-cost testing. Labs, clinics, and at-home testing companies may accept insurance to cover or lower your cost of testing, and lab testing fees range from $8 to $150. You had money for an STD test, okay? I saw

other sources say that an STD test in Florida is $55 the test covers syphilis and HIV chlamydia gonorrhea herpes test $45 all I'm saying is if you had money for rope you could have gotten some money for STD test hell you had money to travel from South Dakota to Tampa to creep in the first place okay Renee what about condoms which you too can get free from the clinic, all right? Two words for you, Renee. Planned Parenthood.

They can help you get condoms and other birth control methods for free. Is that where inflation is taking us now? Where people can't even afford to cheat? What happened to the good old days when, you know, you got an STD and blamed it on your significant other? We used to be a country. We are getting away from traditional values not to mention you nasty renee not only are you a despicable human who would lie about being raped you slept with your little side piece unprotected bareback shimmy shimmy y'all shimmy yeah shimmy

yay you fought bare knuckle in the club and thought you lost that's why you went to go get an sd test okay lock this woman up all right put her under the jail there's too many women out here who are real victims who actually are dealing with the real trauma of being sexually assaulted and you out here lying simply because you cheated on your husband and did the raw dog roulette with another man huh please give renee dawn Don Stoglone.

I said that that's science. That men, when we cheat, our conscience eats us up so bad that we come clean. And that's why our karma stays clean. But I said women take it to the grave, and that's why they have yeast infections and discharges and vaginal discharge because that's all that bs that y'all holding on inside of you that y'all should just come clean about and you wouldn't have yeast infections and discharge no more that's science y'all well let's tap it comes from charlemagne donkey today this lady uh this lady named renee don skoglon i think i said her name definitely not she cheated on her husband
