Hold on.

Hey, hey, hey.
Where's your mouth?
Where's your mouth?
What?
Bro, you don't know what we're talking about.
Where's your mouth, bro?
You're exciting me so crazy.
I ain't saying where's my mouth.
I told my girl to wipe my mouth.
Hold on, man.
Shut the back.
I got a question for you.
What?
I got a question for you.
I don't know where your mouth is.
I don't know where to go back, you know, but I ain't been able to get on the air for a minute.
Y'all always...
Matter of fact, let me ask you this real quick.
Who is the person that asked for the phone
and say, hold on, what's your question?
Who is that guy?
It depends.
It depends.
It's a few people.
Two different people.
You got my man Brandon.
Y'all know Bubba Dub on Instagram, right?
The Instagram influencer.
Whoever asked for the phone,
the person that put y'all up there,
put people on the phone,
that mother f***ing trash.
What happened?
What happened? What happened?
That man always put you on hold.
I held on the phone for an hour.
I only held on for an hour. It ain't like I ain't got
nothing to do. But I only held on for an hour
because it takes me an hour to drive to work at one point.
So I held on.
I got a question.
I got a question, Charlamagne. This hear what that means. Yes, go ahead.
I got a question, Charlamagne.
This is a serious question, though, for real.
So how do you ask, this is about mental health,
how do you ask someone if they're going to hurt their self
or, you know, they want to kill their self?
I don't know.
I'm asking that question because this goes back for a little while now.
I read the 603.
It's the note that his girlfriend wrote to him before she committed suicide.
I have two friends in my life that committed suicide.
Yeah, so did I.
I want to know, is there a way that you can ask somebody that,
are they going to hurt themselves?
Are we going to kill them, Bill?
I don't know if that's a question that I've ever seen anybody ask.
I mean, usually it's something that the other person expresses, you know, and if they don't express it verbally, they express it through actions.
And then usually they just attempted or sadly completed.
So I don't think that's something you ask somebody.
You think you're going to kill yourself?
At least not me.
I'm not an expert.
I'm sure an expert would answer that question totally different but i've never asked anybody
that question i only ask you because i hear you speaking about mental health a lot and like i said
i had two friends my lifetime that committed suicide just recently here and one of them you
know he joked about it you know and we would always tell him you know you're joking and he
always said he was joking and he said it in joking centers and stuff like that.
But he was fighting some stuff we didn't know about, and boom, he took himself out.
And that's what I wish I would have known.
Then I would have asked him, are you planning to hurt yourself or what?
Do you know somebody?
Well, you know what I'm going to do?
I'm going to put you on hold, but not for an hour.
I'm going to give you an email, and I'm going to
connect you with one of my
experts, you know? And you
should talk to her, Dr. Alfie Breland
Noble. I mean, that's what we do at the Mental Wealth
Online, so that's a great question, but I'm not an expert, man.
I'm just a person with some experiences, but I'll connect you
with an expert for sure. Hello, who's this?
Good morning, Jay. Good morning, Jay.
What's up?
South Florida, blessings.
Get it off your chest, brother.
Angelina, blessings
and much success to y'all. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you.
I love this. Positive energy.

Hey, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We'll see you next time. mindfulness podcast on purpose. I've had the pleasure of being a guest on it. You're a phenomenal guest. I love the episode with Kobe Bryant.
I love the episode with Jada Pickett.
You've got a lot of great episodes.
Yeah, I'm really grateful.
We've got an amazing community.
They keep showing up,
and we've had some phenomenal guests.
I was just saying,
you were one of our first guests
in the first three to six months of the show,
and it was brand new,
so I'm so grateful that you did that, man.
I really appreciate it.
Thank you for having me.
And I've been hearing a lot of people
talk about meditation lately,
and so you actually help guide people through how to meditate right yes yeah so i spent three years living as a monk in india and across europe and so i was trained
in how to meditate from monks who've been practicing for decades and they were practicing
ancient meditation techniques for thousands and thousands of years and so when i was trained in
that school i felt this this responsibility to wanna share that
with the world because it changed my life
and I'm just an average kid born and raised in London.
And I thought, well, if it can help me,
then I'm sure it can help a lot of people.
What leads a young man to wanna be a monk?
Trust me, I did not grow up wanting to be a monk.
And if someone told me that I was gonna grow up
and become a monk, I probably would've thrown
a beer bottle at them that I would have been holding uh but i was born
and raised in london and i would go in my teens to go and hear from people who'd gone from nothing
to something so i was fascinated by rags to riches stories i'd go and hear ceos entrepreneurs
athletes celebrities and this is before podcasts and youtube so you actually had to go to events
and so i'd go to these events and once my friends told me that a monk was speaking
and i was skeptical i was like what am i going to learn from someone who's gone from nothing to
nothing like you know what what are they going to teach me and so i said to my friends i'd only go
if we go to a bar afterwards i was i was 18 years old and they were being very persuasive so they agreed so I end up at this event at my university waiting to hear this monk
speak I go there I'm looking at the clock like just waiting to leave and I
was just mesmerized and I don't mean that in like a spiritual experience where
I just mean like I was captivated by every word that he said and there was
nothing externally attractive about him he was was wearing robes, he was from India, he wasn't connected to me in any other way
but he spoke about service and he spoke about purpose and he spoke about how
serving others and helping others with your skills and your strengths is the
greatest thing you can do and my 18 year old self was just completely penetrated
my heart and I was just like that's what I want and now when I look back
I realize that when I was 18 I'd met people who were rich I'd met people who were famous I'd met
people who were beautiful and strong but I don't think I'd met anyone who was truly happy and that
day I felt like I met someone who was truly happy and that you just felt that energy in this space
what was the process of being a monk so the process is you wake up at 4 a.m. every day.
And what is a monk for people that don't know?
So a monk is someone who dedicates themselves
to a particular spiritual tradition.
And you generally practice celibacy
during the time that you're a monk.
But beyond that, you're waking up every day,
4 a.m., meditating for 4 to 8 hours a day
So the morning meditation finishes about 8 8 30 then you get some breakfast
Then you do your daily chores and then the rest of the day we were out serving
So we were serving food to the homeless building sustainable villages
Helping out in schools and this was all out in India. So a lot of the philanthropy work as well
So the morning was about self mastery and the afternoon was about serving others and so that's kind of like the rough
framework of what a day looks like but you know you said you wanted to be a
monk because it led you to public service I feel like that's our true
purpose in life service to others yes you can do that without being a monk so
what made you want to go full-fledged and be a monk absolutely and I think the
truth is that I didn't see anyone living a life of service at that
time who wasn't living from a spiritual place it just wasn't as common and now i feel so happy
that this conversation is happening in the mainstream but when i was 18 that's you know
roughly like 16 17 years ago that wasn't there you didn't see that you you saw the forbes rich list
you saw that list you didn't really see a service list or a purpose list and I think that's
changing but it was also the idea that the self mastery part was you're actually
going to work on purifying your ego you're actually going to work on your
own mind so you're not just gonna go out there and try and help other people but
you're actually gonna deal with everything that's going on in here and I
think that attracted me that wow I'm gonna get x amount of time every day to figure out the
mess that's in here when am i ever gonna get that time again what did your parents think about you
going to monk school and then coming back home so when i first told them my mom was like where did
we go wrong right you know like what did we do wrong? Right. You know, like, what did we do wrong? And, and luckily my, you know, my parents are very forward thinking and they, they supported me
because they could see my heart was in it. And I can't really, you know, I can't really blame them.
They did a great job and they were really, really supportive. But my extended family was like,
you're never going to get a job again. You've been brainwashed. You're never going to get,
make money again. You're never going to be, you know, all that noise from society basically saying,
you've just committed career suicide.
And what are you going to do when it doesn't work out?
So when it didn't work out, I almost felt like I had made what they were saying true.
And so I kind of came with a lot of pain and a lot of stress and pressure thinking,
all these people were right and maybe I was wrong.
All right, we have more with Jay Shetty when we come back.
Of course, he's the host of On Purpose.
It's the number one health and wellness podcast.
He's a former monk
and we'll talk to him some more
when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
I went from being a monk,
served for a monk for three years.
Couldn't find a job.
He said he got rejected
by 40 different companies.
Yeah.
At what point did the On Purpose podcast
start between that and The Monk and that?
So I left Being A Monk in 2013.
I started in 2010.
On Purpose launched in 2019.
Okay.
So six years later.
And my online video content started in 2016.
So in 2016,
after I'd been sharing meditation and mindfulness with corporations,
coaching people behind the scenes, never made any content, I just felt that I was sitting in a lot
of boardrooms, which was fantastic. But I felt this message had to get further than the boardroom.
And at the time, I was thinking, how do I do this? And so I was applying to media companies
that I was like, hey, if these guys give me a job, then I can make content about mindfulness and meditation.
And I was rejected from three media companies.
I remember chasing an exec on his bike in London and saying, hey, give me a job.
And he was like, you're too old.
Is that after you said that, I guess it was the president or CEO asked you to do that?
Correct.
So that's when you felt like that was your calling?
Yeah, because I was like, wow, I'm being asked to do this.
It's working
but it needs to reach more people and it needs to reach more people without just their organization
being involved what if it could reach the person on the street right how do you get to that person
and so i thought media is the way and so i was applying to all these media jobs but everyone
kept telling me you're not you're too you're too old i was 28 years old they're like you're too old
everyone's 21 who wants this job.
They were like, you don't have any background in media.
You've never been in communications.
And so I ended up at a TV training day run by the BBC in London in Pinewood Studios.
And it was run for ethnic minorities.
So there were just six brown and black people in that room.
And I'm one of them.
And they tell me, Jay, you're good.
You're engaging.
You can present well. So I'm like, give me a job. I just want a shot. And they're me, Jay, you're good. Like, you're engaging. You can present well.
So I'm like, give me a job.
Like, I just want a shot.
And they're like, Jay, there's no jobs in media.
And so I'm like, come on.
You brought me all the way here, like, you know,
six brown and black people to tell us there's no jobs in media.
What was the point of this?
And they're like, well, you should start a YouTube channel.
And in my head, I'm thinking, yeah, that works for Justin Bieber.
That's not going to work for me.
You know, and I'm having that limiting feeling. You look like you're being a boy, Ben. Oh, thank you. I was like, thank, that works for Justin Bieber. That's not going to work for me. You know, and I'm having that limiting...
You look like you're being a boy, Ben.
I was like, thank you.
Maybe not, maybe not.
And literally, it was like,
I was like, maybe that works for Justin Bieber.
And I had that limiting belief.
I was like, that's not going to work for me.
But literally, there's a beautiful statement
by Thomas Edison.
He said, when you believe you've exhausted all options,
remember this, you haven't. And that's how I felt. I believe you've exhausted all options remember
this you haven't and that's how I felt I felt I had exhausted all options and the
only option I had left was YouTube if I really cared about this so I made a
video and I kept making videos every week and they're doing okay they're
getting like a thousand views or something like that and in three months
Arianna Huffington saw my videos from the Huffington Post and so she really connected with them and they said hey Jay look we're not gonna pay
you anything we're not gonna do anything we're gonna take your videos we're gonna
put them on the Huffington Post page because we like your content what do you
think I'm like great let's get them out there right like that's what this is
about smart you recognize the opportunity when it wasn't a paycheck
yeah yeah there was no paycheck at that you know money they put it out the first
video did a million views in a week the second video did a million views in 24 hours and those three or four videos i made for them did like 100 million views across
that year and literally it just changed everything because now the message was reaching people
and then i sent her right hand man who's a good friend of mine now danny shea he was the one who'd
come out to make this contact happen i messaged him every day saying when are
you giving me a job when he gave me a job when he gave me a job finally after 30 days he sent me a
visa sent me a job offer I moved to New York City in 2016 September to work at the HuffPost as a
senior host and producer that lasted around six months I mean the way you're speaking is great
because it's not even about the meditation of what you're speaking. It's just about a lot of people don't have that drive.
You were told no
a thousand times
but still did it.
You know,
you did something
that you had no idea
about YouTube.
Then when it came
with a situation,
most people now would be like,
well, how much am I getting paid?
Now you want to use my content?
How much am I getting paid?
And you was like,
nah, I understand
what this could be.
And congratulations.
I love stories like that.
Congratulations, bro.
And thank you for highlighting that.
I really appreciate the way you're looking at it. You're looking at it all the time. Like, you come up here and be bro. And thank you for highlighting that. I really appreciate
the way you're looking at it.
You're looking at it all the time.
Like, people come up here
and be like,
how much I'm getting paid?
I'm not doing this
because I ain't getting
no money attached.
But some things
ain't about the money.
We came from a place
where we both worked
for a long time.
So it's about the opportunity.
I always wanted to serve.
My whole goal was
how can this reach more people?
And when HuffPost
or anyone came
with that opportunity,
and thankfully,
after those six months,
I built it myself.
So I went off, built my own channels.
2019, we launched On Purpose.
And in the beginning, we couldn't book anyone again.
Really?
So by the way, I'll tell you, when we launched the podcast,
everyone said this to me,
and this is why what you're saying has helped me go in this direction.
When I wanted to launch a podcast,
we had like billions of views on facebook and youtube you know millions
of views on youtube billions on facebook i had a video that did 397 million views on facebook
something ridiculous like that and i wanted to launch a podcast and everyone said to me jay you're
interesting for four minutes in a four minute youtube and facebook video no one wants to listen
to you for over four minutes that was the feedback i got so i was meeting all the podcast companies
we had one podcast company that was about to sign me and I thought it was all done I went away for Christmas I came back two weeks
after they had a new exec a big podcast company he came in and he goes Jay I don't think this can
be a big show and so they pulled out two weeks before it launched and I'd already invested all
this money recording the episodes videoing it we've been traveling to get guests and I was
interviewing friends or people that I knew at the time. And we couldn't book anyone either.
I remember I was getting rejected left, right and center.
That's why when you said yes, I was so grateful.
Because we couldn't book anyone at the time.
And now when I see what's happened, I'm like, I'm so glad that that company pulled out.
I'm so grateful to them.
Actually, I'm so blessed that they pulled out because I got to do it my way on my own.
And I got to build it on my own.
Who was your first big guest?
My first big guest was Russell Brand, who I've known for a long time. We have the same meditation teacher. We've been
friends in London for a while. So Russell Brand was my first big guest. My first ever guest was
my wife. It was my first episode. Well, she was your first big guest. Yeah, that was my first.
Yeah. Oh yeah. Thank you. Yeah. I messed that up. Yeah. All right. I messed that up. Yeah.
My wife was my first big guest. Yeah. Russell Brand was my first well-known guest. Novak Djokovic, tennis player who I've known for a while as well. He was one of my first big guest yeah russell brown was my first well-known guest uh novak jokovic
tennis player who i've known for a while as well he was one of my first big guests
uh and then you know since then it's just been a joy to sit down with people that brian god bless
the dead yeah i mean how did that feel i till this day and i'm not just saying it because of
what happened and i i don't i wish i didn't even have to say that But I do because I think People try and make things a certain way
But I have never felt
Someone more present
And grounded in his feet
Apart from Monks
Than Kobe Bryant
When I spoke to him
There was so much gravity around him
And when he spoke his voice as well
It had so much presence

Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
So we're asking, when did you know your spouse was the one?
I say as soon as I met my wife, I knew right away.
I was mesmerized.
She was smart.
She was beautiful, attractive, sexy, and loyal.
So I knew right away.
So with asking that question, let's go to the phone line.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, I want to remain anonymous.
Oh, boy.
Okay, go ahead.
Go.
Anonymous.
We actually talked on and off for like a year, but we had never met.
And then when we finally did meet each other, he was just like, I want to get married.
So a month after dating, we got married.
Wow.
So you knew right away.
That's great.
Yes.
But like, so no one knows that we're married.
Our mothers, they know.
But like, we want to tell everybody at the wedding, like, oh, we've been married.
And that'll be like 11 months into our marriage.
Okay, beautiful.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning, this is B from Tampa.
Hey.
I listen to y'all all the time.
Good morning, when did you know your man or your girl was the one?
Well, I knew pretty early on.
But the telling factor for me is that I wasn't afraid to let him leave me,
which is like a very difficult decision when you're independent and you're doing everything on your own and holding it down.
But I was like, OK, you got it.
You can make the decisions.
You can do all the things.
And I had absolutely no reservations.
And I'm like, yeah, I can't let him go.
That's right, girl.
That's beautiful.
All right.
Thank you, mama.

When did you know your girl was gone, bro?
Yo.
Within like four months.
You know, four or five months.
It was good.
OK, four or five months.
I proposed to her and everything.
But then it turned out not being good, man.
All right.
What happened?
It didn't work out You know with too much arguing back and forth
And the cheating started
And it just went bad
I'm sorry to hear that
Everything doesn't work out
So maybe she wasn't the one then bro

We busted up with Char.
But Wallo busted up a lot more.
And on the way up here, he just said some shit that threw me off.
What did he say, Gil?
We riding up here.

And he was like, when we getting there, I'm sitting next to Charlamagne.

And he definitely did.
Nothing, nothing.
When you walked in, he cut you off and sat right in that seat.

I just had to look at him and see.
He's my guy, though.

I'm thinking to my mind, did you just claim that as a celly?

He's lying to me.
I'm just saying.
When we get in there, I'm sitting next to him.
I believe Gilly.
I believe Gilly.
Dang.
You're wrong.
You're wrong.
Angel, what really threw me off is he shortened the s*** name up.
I'm sitting next to Char.
I ain't never call that
a name, Char.
I call that a seat.
This is Char.
I ain't never do that.
You lying on me now.
I said, man, you got that.
I just went back to sleep.
All right, we got more
with Wallo and Gilly the King
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
Willow and Gilly the King.
Million dollars worth of games. Charlamagne?
Gilly, you was one of them. You know, I was
listening to it this weekend
when you was on QDZ's show
and Beanie Siegel called in.
You just went in the
Gooby Mars show. That was so
classic.
You be hating. What happened? You just went into Groovy Mars, Shawshank. That was so classic. You got to show it.
Me hyping you to f*** up.
Oh, you never heard that?
Oh, you got to add that, man.
State your name, gangster.
Come on, man.
Y'all know who this is, man.
Y'all can't be serious, man.
We serious, dawg.
You can't stop nothing over here, huh?
You think you can stop us?
Be real with yourself, dawg.
We men.
We all know each other.
We men.
Titter, I know you ain't talking, Titter.
I'm talking.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. We put money up for hours.
Say hi to your boy.
What's up, rec?
What you want to do, man?
You don't want to date it up and wiggle it out.
What's up?
I don't even know what they was beefing over, but Gilly was screaming on Beanie, and then
Beanie called in screaming on Gilly.
That sh** sounded like them n****s was going to shoot each other out as soon as the interview was over.
Gilly B was a damn near everybody in the industry at one point.
And then I went down a whole rabbit hole, and they was like, Gilly and Beanie got into a fight, and yada, yada, yada.
Beanie sucker punched Gilly.
I'm just saying, sucker punched you.
You caught yourself.
Baby was there.
That was a rumor, too, on the line. No, it wasn't no f***ing rumor. He's s***. That was a rumor too on the line.
It wasn't no f***ing rumor.
He got s***.
All-star weekend.
You asked Beanie what happened.
Beanie sucker punched you.
Baby was there.
My man, number one stunner was there.
You know how you know that ain't the truth?
Because me and Beanie Siegel cool to this day.
Yeah, I saw that.
No, they is.
Don't put no s*** on my name because you're going to have me
tell what really happened up here.
I want to add
to it,
but that's another story.
But see,
and it was different
with y'all back then
because there was always
a chance that it could get
physical and turn
into some street shit.
Absolutely.
It did turn into
some street shit.
It did.
And you know,
Spade went to jail.
It got real serious.
You know what I'm saying?
So, you know, that's why I don't even talk on that situation because somebody from our camp went to jail for murder.
Somebody lost their life.
And what's so crazy is that, you know, we was beefing with Beans and Freeway and State Property and a lot of s*** went down.
And then you look up 20 years later and these dudes are my brothers
because we grew up and we understood that that we was going through that was didn't even make
no sense that wasn't even that deep but when did y'all realize that because you beef with them and
you beef with joe you beef with so many different people when you realize oh oh oh let me just say
this about you he didn't beef with joe beef is when somebody do you realize? Oh, let me just say this about Joe. He didn't beef with Joe.
Beef is when somebody get killed to shot.
Joe, him and Joe had a misunderstanding.
But we straighten that out.
But you say, OK, Gilly beef with everybody.
The state property situation.
Gilly was home minding his business.
Gilly get a call.
Turn the radio on.
They on the radio rapping about us.
Coming at us.
Wayne dissed me.
Wayne put out a song called Problem Solver.
Gilly, you don't want to f*** with me, the gunna be.
Gilly, man, I don't think you looking shit really.
Cover me, the gun off me, urgently.
Working it, twerking it, perfect bang.
See, one thing about me, I never start no s***.
But if you f*** with me, then you just know I'm coming.
I ain't never start nothing with nobody.
Now, I might talk a little s*** to Baby from time to time, then you just know I'm coming. I ain't never start nothing with nobody.
Now, I might talk a little s*** to Baby from time to time,
but that's because I was around that scene.
I did s*** this s***.
How serious are y'all about Wallo trying to get your masters back from Baby?
Does that s*** really own your masters?
No, Baby really.
I talked to Baby.
Baby said, Wallo, listen, whoa.
He said, whoa, listen, whoa.
He said, your cousin, I lost money f***ing with him.
I said, well, how can we straighten this out?
He said, man, he be talking crazy. I said, cuz,
I got a video from Gil apologizing to Baby, and I sent it to him. So right now, the
lawyer's just talking, so it ain't gonna be that long.
He really on your masters? Yeah, he on his masters.
Let me tell you how I really want that. He was on Cash Money
Records. He on everybody's masters.
He said, Baby, how can I get
my cousin's masters back? He said,
give me a kiss. Get the f*** out of here.
Get the f*** out of here.
You seen that picture of him kissing me.
That's the whole twist, though.
But at the end of the day, at the end of the day, he owned his Masters, so I'm negotiating that.
It is not like it's worth something, but I want to just give him the helm and say, here go your Masters.
I wonder how you and Beanie Diggin' on good terms, though, because you talk about people going to jail, people getting killed, right?
And people gave Jeezy so much flack
for squashing it with Gucci
and it's just like,
man, why can't you be bigger
than the bulls**t sometimes?
No, no, no, no, no.
No, I'm just...
I'm just...
You think it's two different situations
and it's very wild.
You think somebody got killed?
Everybody's situation is different.
Yeah, everybody's situation is different.
I think everybody...
We can't even talk on that
because that's things
we don't even know the particular.
Oh, you're saying that
because it continued even during
the verses, it was still.
No, I'm just going to be quiet.
I'm just.
You're never quiet.
He's like, I don't want to speak on that.
Everybody say that grow up.
But if you send some niggas
to my crib to dust me off.
How you going to feel?
I don't care.
40 years go by.
We smoking Ronnie G.
Ronnie G came to dust me off, i'm not gonna take me away from my family man it could be what if ronnie g would have gotten me so you can't that's 20 years later that's personal he tried
to dust me off i dusted ronnie g off in the process i don't know how anybody else feel
but 20 years later we we smoking Ronnie G.
I agree.
I see what you're saying,
but at some point,
don't you got to let go
of that trauma, though?
No, not when he tried
to come dust me off,
take me away from my kids.
Because what if he went?
What if he did get him
out of the way?
I don't know.
You know what I mean?
That's different shows.
It actually went down.
Like,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Yeah, they could've returned fire.
They could've killed my kids in here.
But that's the, everybody got a different way to abuse. They could have killed my kids in here. But that's the easy thing.
Everybody got a different way to approach it.
They could have done s*** by off in the house.
So now, because I was on point, it caught you slipping like a bad transmission, laid you down like baby hairs, had to go to jail, I think, fight the case and all that, if I'm not mistaken.
Lose years of my life, money, and I'm supposed to feel sorry.
I'm just saying, that's just the way I think.
I get it.
I told you.
I would have been smoking a lot of G&L, too.
I'm going to say this, though.
You never let it go, Gilly.
How you let it go when somebody tried to dust you off?
Yeah.
The difference between you losing your life and you living is like this, man.
When I'm hot, I don't know if y'all ever been shot before no okay i've been shot before so this is this this close the bullet
could have went this much closer i could have been done now my kids growing up without a father
we smoking roddy g forever i'm just a petty so how did you How did you Squash it with Beanie I ain't
Just saying
We didn't lose nobody
Oh your side did
No
Oh okay okay
Gotcha gotcha
So
I mean it wasn't
That hard for us
To squash it
See it gets personal
For me because
They tried to kill
Me
How you ever
Get over somebody
Coming to your house
And trying to
Dust you off
No Alright when we come back We got more with Gilly the King And Wild Old So don't move Kill me. How you ever get over somebody coming to your house and trying to dust you off?
No.
All right, when we come back, we got more with Gilly the King and Wild Old So Don't Move.
It's The Breakfast Club.

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, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of
Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers
did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God.
What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help. We still have the off-road portion to go.

who refused to give up her seat on the city bus

Because all you do is nag all day.
And I don't pay that s*** no attention.
These 20 years in jail,

I'm comfortable with my identity
and who I am.
I'm cool. I'm not, ain identity and who I am. I'm cool.
I'm not, ain't nothing wrong with me.
Congrats on the engagement too, Waller.
Oh, yeah, man.
I changed my life.
What the hell are you talking about?
I ain't your girlfriend, man.
Yeah, that's a great thing, man.
Now, Gilly, were you really about to sign to Rockefeller?
I saw you say that the other day.
Yeah.
Like, how close was it?
Jay-Z?
No, we had a situation.
Jay-Z told him, get the fuck out of here.
No, no, no, no. No, let's be for real. WhatZ? No, we had a situation on David. Jay-Z told him, get the f*** out of here. No, no, no, no.
No.
Let's be for real.
What did Jay really tell you, though?
All right.
Initially, Bean signed a Rockefeller.
Then Major Figures was supposed to sign a Rockefeller.
By the time they came back with the deal for Major Figures, I had already signed with
Suave House.
Then Dutch and Speed went over here to Entertainment.
Lava went down here with Dr. Dre.
But then Jay wanted the group.
So then when they came at us with the contract, it was like, I'm an independent.
I'm a solo artist.
I get 15 points, a bump at gold, a bump at platinum.
There's seven people in this group, man.
We got 12 points, man.
We would have to sell a quadrillion records to make some goddamn money, man.
So I turned the deal down what jay told you
then they went out and got state property no but with the this is before state
but what did jay-z tell you after you turned it down and did he stand on what he said
let's just say the black ball is real man what did jay-z tell you though
what did the whole tell you got him see what did he take
hove told him i'm gonna make it hard for you it's gonna be hard for you damn he said that
what did you feel now you're on blue daddy now what you now did you feel those effects did

Come on, man,
because you know I've went through the system.
What happened?
You got the text messages.
Don't play this.
I can't know the text messages.
Home told me to...
You got the text messages.
He was scared of home.
First of all, DJ Drama already said what it was.
Yeah, I know Lil Wayne put that whammy on you.
You know, Cash Money did it too.
But man, at the end of the day,
man, you look up 20 years later,
me can't blackball God.
I always played you
on my mixtapes though.
We always had great memories.
You played me
to them Tex game too.
Oh,
that s*** is not good.
Jay Icey.
Well,
maybe he meant it
in like a friendly
competition way.
Like,
you know,
you're going to sign
the Suave House
and we're going to
make it hard for you.
Yeah,
yeah.
Yeah,
I think that might have been
like some friendly competition.
How did you feel when he told you that?
Because I'm gonna go grab
these other boys.
I mean, I was a young ****
in the game.
I didn't know Jay was about
to be the next biggest ****
for 20 years.
So I was like,
****.
Why the ****
are you talking about ****?
Y'all never spoke after that?
Yeah.
When I was signing cash money,

bus cuz baby told me to stay on the bus baby baby told you my baby baby sister

So, baby was like, you might want to, you know what I mean?
And I was like, no.
You got off the bus.
I went to the studio.
He was like, wow, what's going on in here?
Basically, he was talking about me being in that bus.
But that was it.
Wilder, we got to give Gilly give you some therapy man yeah he's been through

Now this is very interesting.
Jay-Z or Drake?
This is a conversation
everybody's been having.
They had that with Flex on.
That was a good one.
Jay-Z or Drake?
First of all,
just say this.
I'm not a Drake fan.
I've never in my life
gotten a car
through Drake on.
That's the God honest truth.
You know what I'm saying?
I like him when he raps.
I don't like all that
singing.
You know,
just just me. You like Lemon Pepper Freestyle? He was spitting on there. You spit more on there. I don't like all that singing. You know
Freestyle he was spitting on a spin. I hear it. It's all day every day
Jay-z man, what the fuck is we talking about? I don't understand. Why do we what is we talking about? We grow we older though So I'm saying we are be singer. What is we talking about?
We gonna say who better Chris Brown the jay-z
It is Who the f*** are we going to say? Who better? Chris Brown or Jay-Z? Like, what the f*** is he talking about?
It's not the same, man.
It is.
These kids love Drake. No, no, no.
And he's rapping.
No, no, no, no, no.
Because listen, Drake is the greatest of his time.
That don't mean I have to listen to you.
Jay-Z was the greatest of our time.
He sold two, three million records every time he came out.
So everybody f***ing wasn't listening to him.
All I'm saying is Drake say a lot of light skin
s***. Oh boy.
F*** that n***a
that you love so bad.
Who's gonna tell a girl
f*** that n***a that you love so bad?
That's hate and s***.
What did you tell her?
I'm gonna say stuff like that. FYI, guys
say stuff like that all the time.
I know you think about
the times we've had.
No, she's not. You just said she love this.
What are you talking?
I'm just saying you could do better.
Wait, Andy, you think your woman can't do better than you, Andy?
You think my woman can't do better than me?
Here's what.
Yes, she can.
That's why y'all do side.
That's why you do side.
You got to do that.
I'm only gonna hate
only if you make me.
How you gonna make me hate?
Can't nobody make me hate?
S**t's deep.
Yo, Baka gonna diss you, yo.
I'm just telling the truth.
Baka.
I don't care about Baka.
I'm gonna s**t you, Baka.
I saw it was my husband.
You're saying I'm getting mad?
Yeah.
I'm a clue. A clue would go with his. So you got, I just was talking to clue Just mixed it
We talking about
Just straight mixed tape
Drama
You the perfect one
I agree
Drama
Why
I agree
Because drama had a little longer run
And he had a bigger brand
I'm saying
Drama kept his name the same
The whole time
No no no
If clue did professional
One through 108 It would be the same brand But what I'm saying is Cl brand. Drama kept his name the same the whole time. No, no, no. If Clue did Professional 1 through 108, it would be the same brand.
But what I'm saying is Clue set the stage for Drama.
He did, absolutely.
I'm going to say that.
I agree with that.
But when Drama dropped that Gangsta Grill shit, like everybody that Drama dealt with
on that Gangsta Grill shit at one point in time, that shit took off.
Yep.
From the Jeezy's to the T.I.'s to the Wayne's to the you name it.
But they was out already, though.
But it took them.
It propelled them.
Clue broke Fab, Ace, and the Locks.
The people that nobody heard.
I'm saying.
Drama outbreak, Jeezy.
Hold on.
Jeezy was out.
But I'm saying Clue.
I'm saying Clue.
I'm saying Clue.
Choppa Dye was what put Jeezy on the map.
I understand.
But I'm saying Clue because I was in jail.
And before I went to jail, Clue had this shit.
He did shit the dudes wasn't doing. I think Clue was the biggest. And Drama, my man. I think DJ Drama had the biggest series. Because nothing was bigger jail. And before I went to jail, Clue had this shit. He did shit the dudes wasn't doing.
I think Clue was the biggest...
And Drama, my man!
DJ Drama had the biggest series
because nothing was bigger than Gangsta Grill.
No, no.
And Clue broke Envy.
He broke Envy.
Yeah, Clue broke Envy.
Drama said,
you have to be a superstar.
Yeah.
Because after Gilly stopped writing for Wayne,
then Wayne started heating up again
through those mixtapes.
Do you believe Gil will vote for Wayne?
Not really. Thank you. Thank you
You with me though, I don't think
Did you write for little Wayne no
Not one bar. I'm tired of this comes really kind of the original Quentin Miller man
Cuz he helped people, but then he got the short end of the stick. Like, let's just go into all the s*** that I said in the freestyle.
Tell me one lie.
You're four albums in and ain't received a publishing check.
That was in 2004.
Wayne was just suing Baby for $52 million in 2017.
The one thing I don't do, man, I don't do no faking or no fraud. Wayne was just suing Baby for $52 million in 2017, right?
The one thing I don't do, man, I don't do no faking or no fraud.
He told Wayne about what a publishing check was.
He didn't know.
Motherfucker said, man, I just know if I go gold, I get gold money.
If I go platinum, I get platinum money.
So what?
He came down there and f***ed their old system up.
So it was you that f***ed up cash money.
Yeah, he told me.
He told me. Why?
I got around to start finding out.
Wait, hold on.
F*** this is on the label and the f*** is this your manager?
F*** it, that's a conflict of interest.
I don't know about no conflict of interest.
I just know, okay, yeah, I just know you're getting f***ed.
So why you end up beefing then if you was putting him on the game? I have no idea. Okay. Yeah. I just know you're getting. So why you end up beefing? And then if you was,
I have no idea why we ended up.
So do you respect an artist like Drake or artists like Wayne who doesn't necessarily always write?
Let me tell you something. Man,
music is about going in the studio,
having fun,
expressing yourself.
Sometimes there's one person in there.
Sometimes there's three persons in there.
Sometimes there's five people in there. Like people keep three persons in there, sometimes there's five people in there.
Like people keep frontin' like a lot of these great, some of our greatest artists, they
done had people that write shit for them. We the only genre of music that's so worried
about that. Everybody else, most of they hits, they ain't even write.
That's why rappers be havin' a limited shelf.
We have a limited like year!
Guess, guess, guess, guess who don't care that Drake ain't write that music?
The Kutuz? Huh?
The woman that's gonna suck his at the end of the night.
They suckin' Quentin Miller.
We gonna suck Drake out his and spit him down at the end of the bed.
Not Quentin, Quentin who?
Man, listen.
Somebody gonna edit that from Drake's team.
I know.
That did sound crazy.
No music, no talking, he just said it clearly.
We gonna suck Drake. No, the bitch is his. As long as we get paid. No,, no talking. He just said it clearly. We going to suck Drake's balls.
No, the bitch is this.
As long as we get paid.
No, you didn't put the bitch.
As long as you get paid.
I said they going to suck Drake's balls.
No, you didn't.
You said we, man.
I ain't say no f***ing we.
We just said we.
We going to suck Drake's balls out his b***h and spit them down at the end of the bed.
Oh, my God.
Not me.
I ain't got nothing to do with that.

The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.
I spent the whole last week in Orlando last week.
Dropping the clues bombs for Orlando.
Everybody at our station out there, 104.5 The Beat.
Beautiful, beautiful place Orlando is.
And when you're down there feeling that florida sun you realize god really does favor

would never understand though in any state is adults that lie okay we grown man all right you
have no reason to be telling me a fib like Like, what do adults that lie think is going to happen to them when they tell the truth?
Okay, well, Talita Collier didn't get that memo because she was late for work.
And trust me when I tell you, working up here at The Breakfast Club for the past 12 years,
I have heard some amazing excuses as to why people missed work.
Okay, and this one is a great one.
Can anyone in this room vouch for some of the great excuses we've heard as the why people are late they gotta show up oh man that was a
great one that guy that was the cat ate the wire into your life amazing oh that was enough i got
that one and these are people that i love by the way okay i got arrested but they didn't put me in
handcuffs they just sat me in the back of the car and drove me to the police station now when you're
a black man in america especially a black man who's been arrested and been in handcuffs for nothing you know that's
not true okay oh the cat locked me in my bedroom that was a good one lock me in the bathroom lock
me in the bathroom my cat locked me in my bathroom i got a fight on the train no that was real that
was real drop on the clues bombs for these people that I love.
Who shall remain nameless.
Yeah, pretty much.
These are things that we actually heard.
So we've heard some wild stories on why people didn't make it to work.
And Talita Collier is added to that list this morning because according to Tampa 12 News, Talita was going to be late for work.
So she told the sheriff's office, she actually made up a story about confronting a burglar.
Okay. Only armed with a knife.
All right. Toledo saw somebody trying to break into a car belonging to her parents.
And she told her supervisor at work that she drew her agency issued weapon and pointed it at the burglar who took off.
I didn't know TSA had knives on them. OK, well, her supervisor didn't believe her.
You know, I know her supervisor didn't believe her because the sheriff's office said the tsa asked colier for a case number and the name of
the detective on the case toledo couldn't provide either so her supervisor told her to get a copy
of the incident report this is how you know her supervisor didn't believe her she wanted all this
information because she didn't believe her and toledo doubled down on the lie because she didn't believe in to lead a double down on the lie because she sent several unreadable screenshots of the report to her supervisor then her supervisor said well i'm
gonna need a paper copy which to lead and never provide it see this is her supervisor giving her
the opportunity to come clean okay when that person came in here and told us that they got
arrested and the cop put them in the back of the car but didn't handcuff them and drove them down
just to use the phone.
I said, let me tell you something, man.
I don't know who you about to tell that lie to, but you need to rethink that one.
That's what I would have told Toledo in that situation.
OK, but Toledo just kept digging that hole deeper and deeper like a devil damn mole.
OK, now investigators with the sheriff's office reviewed the images from Toledo and determined them to be faker than DJ Envy's beard.
OK. And Collier, according to investigators, also used the name of a deputy who happened to be on vacation out of the country at the time of the incident.
How did she know that? Her parents also told investigators, I don't know what she's talking about all right they had
no idea about the burglary report or that someone allegedly tried to break into their car sheriff
grady said this is sheriff grady said he said i don't understand why anyone would go to the extent
of creating a fake police report to avoid reprimand at work for tardiness sheriff grady have you met
people okay now toledo was already an employee
was already on an employee improvement plan for being late to work so she clearly had been late
to work multiple times so they put her on this employment employee improvement plan so that's
probably why she reacted like this because she thought she was going to lose her job but
now she has a charge of criminal use of a personal ID and uttering a false instrument.
And now we can't believe anything she says ever again, because when you tell a lie once, all your truths become questionable.
OK, the truth doesn't cost you anything, but a lie can cost you everything.
And Talita Collier of Winter Haven, Florida, clearly at this moment has lost everything.
Please give Talita Collier of Winter Haven, Florida the biggest hee-haw.
Now would you like to?
Want to play a game?
Want to play a game?
Let's play a game.
Let's play a game of Guess What Racist!
Talita Collier of Winter Haven, Florida was already on an employee improvement plan for being late to work.
Was late on this day.
Woke up and said that she saw a burglar breaking into her parents' car,
so she defended him with her agency-issued knife.
Guess what race she is?
What is it, Angela Yee?
Man, I don't want to say it.
What do you think, Angela Yee?
Well, just off the fact that we were talking about a lot of excuses that we've heard.
And our own experiences.
With people like, I was talking to someone yesterday who was just telling me, man, I'd just be late to work all the time.
I don't even care.
So are you saying this sounds like a nigga generated excuse?
Is that what you're telling us this morning?
Potentially or maybe mixed. You got to pick one, Yee.
Yeah, what part?
Why can't someone be mixed?
Because we don't have an interracial drop.
But then you're black.
All right.
DJ Envy, Talita Collier of Winter Haven, Florida,
was already on employee improvement plan
for being late to work.
On this day that she was going to be late again,
she decided to say that she saw a burglar
breaking into her
parents car
so she defended him
defended the car
and waved
a burglar off
with a state agency
issued knife
Jess
what
right she is
I gotta go black
damn
it's messed up
why
why don't we have
an interracial drive
because I gotta
it's the people
that I work with
right so if I look at it right I'm thinking... It's the people that I work with, right?
So if I look at it, right? I'm thinking of the white people up here
that work for the Breakfast Club.
They're never late, but they're not looking...
Come on, don't do that.
That's not true.
That's not true.
Nick, you late?
Don't do that.
See, you always got to jump out the window.
No, when Dan was never late.
I don't believe that.
You're always late.
What are you saying?
What about me?
You're black.
What about me?
Wow.
Wow. I don't be late. You be late half're black. What about me? Wow. Wow.
I don't be late.
You be late half the time.
No, I don't.
I'm never late.
You're definitely late half the time.
Could you stop?
You're late half the time.
I'm not late.
Don't make me start filming y'all coming in here after me every day.
Well, guess what?
I don't make no excuses.
All right?
Okay?
I'm just late because I be late.
All right?
I'm old.
All right?
What does that got to do with it?
The moral of the story is, both of y'all are correct.
Talita Collier
is absolutely
black
I knew it
damn
that excuse
that was
this is a nigga generated excuse
yeah it was
I didn't want to say it like that
but it kinda is
I don't even want to say she
I don't even want to say she's black
we're really good at
this is 100% pure nigga
yeah
telling stories too
like you can't just tell a simple lie
that's the other thing
that's how you know this is that's how you know this is one of us a lot of sauce was on this story in pure naked. Yeah. Telling stories too. Like you can't just tell a simple lie. That's the other thing.
That's how you notice that's how you notice
one of us.
A lot of sauce
was on this story.
But when you late
sometimes you gotta
tell sauce
so you feel like
No the best thing to do
if you're gonna lie
about something
is to keep it simple.
No.
That's true.
The dude that said
he was arrested
he would've probably
been alright
but Charlamagne said
if I was you
I would go in there
and tell the truth.
I told him that
cause it sounded stupid.
You gotta keep it simple.
That's all.
Then he went in there and told the truth. All you gotta do is it sounded stupid. You gotta keep it simple. That's all. Then he went in there
and told the truth.
All you gotta do is say
I wasn't feeling good.
That's it.
Nobody could question you.
I have my period.
I believe you.
True.
Let's use that as a drop.
Let's use that one.
I'm definitely using that one.
Please keep that.
I'm using that one
at some point in life.
Guess what?
That's not a period.
That blood is for a different reason.
I dare you to tell me
I don't have one.
You don't know
what I identify as. You right. Okay? Okay blood is for a different reason. I dare you to tell me I don't have one. You don't know what I identify as.
You right.
Okay?
Okay.
All right.
All right.
Well then.
Got a little awkward?
All right.
Well, let's open up the phone line.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Open up the phone lines, man.
We already late.
Don't make a Bible drop sound like.
Don't make us be lying.
800-585-1051.
Do people be lying?
You know adults that just be lying.
They be lying for no reason.
No reason. 800-585-1051. Let's be lying. They be lying for no reason. No reason.
800-585-105.
Well, let's talk about it.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
It's topic time.
Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club.
Let's talk about it.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just join us, it's coming out of Charlamagne's donkey of the day.
Now, you gave donkey of the day to who?
Man, I gave donkey of the day to a young lady named Talita Collier of Winter Haven, Florida.
She was late for work.
She was already on an employee improvement plan for being late to work.
And she was going to be late again on this day.
So she decided to tell her supervisor that her parents' car was being burglarized.
And so she went and approached the burglar with her state agency-issued knife.
And that's why she was late.
But this never happened.
This never happened.
So we're asking 805 85 105 one do you
know uh an adult liar that lies all the time just adults have just been lying for no reason and by
the way i don't understand what's the point of being an adult who lies because what do you think
is gonna happen to you right you know what i'm saying like this woman right here was lying to keep her job but now the
lie cost her her job so why not just tell the truth correct so yeah do you know uh an adult liar
um yeah i do you still speak to the person i know a couple people um not so much but i know i do know
somebody that like randomly tells lies all the time and then they always get caught because they
tell different lies to different people.
And then by the time it gets back to you and then we sit around and be like, she told you this.
Yeah, she told me that. Well, that's not what she told me.
She said the opposite. So we all just kind of like know what it is.
That's why they always say, you know, it's better to tell the truth because when you tell the truth, you don't got to remember what you say.
Yeah, I remember a lot. Yeah have i know one um i'm not friends with the person anymore and i try to make sure that if
any lies i try to keep out of my circle but the person was lying but it was it could have been
detrimental to me like he was lying to people that could have got me hurt yeah and um when that
happens i know that you you don't care about me you don't care about my family it's like malicious
intent yeah definitely malicious intent.
But he was lying to make himself look good.
But it would have possibly got me in trouble or got me into a situation where I could have got hurt.
So I don't deal with lies.
If you lie, I just, you know, no disrespect.
Just get the hell away from me.
And by the way, exaggerating is lying, by the way.
And I don't understand adults that volunteer the lie to you.
Especially when people call you and tell you something, and then you find out they were lying, and you was like, why?
You didn't even have to tell me what you told me.
I didn't even ask you.
It had nothing to do with me.
It wasn't pertaining to me.
You just decided to call me and lie for what?

We are the Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're asking, do you know an adult liar?
Yes, f***ers be lying.
Right?
For no reason.
Go to the phone.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is T from Toledo.
How y'all doing?
Hey, T from Toledo.
They tell me that you a big liar in Toledo.
Oh, I.
Not me.
I try to keep it real.
That's why I got no friends.
Tell us about this adult liar.
Well, my cousin, probably maybe about a couple of months ago, she started saying that this dude that she's supposedly going with
is buying her a house.
Supposedly, he bought this $300,000 house.
She done sent pictures and everything else.
But in all actuality,
a whole nother married couple done bought the house.
She's talking about she got keys
and she done wanted to spend $4,000
on furniture, refurnishing the house.
Then she could move in because something wasn't up to code.
And then it turned around, like, after she told me she spent the money on the furniture,
turned around and asked me to borrow some money.
And the crazy part is, dude don't even have a car.
Like, how can you buy a $300,000 house?
Yeah, what's going to happen, like, when these lies catch up?
I think it's so funny when people lie to you and you know they're lying and you just let them keep going.
Yeah, yeah.
That's exactly.
But I had to call.
You say what?
Yeah, I don't understand why she would lie like that and then there was a whole other couple that got the house.
I don't get it.
Yeah, a whole other couple.
And I started calling her out on it because it kept going on.
And she was like, well, it's something that we're doing different with real estate.
And you don't understand.
Because you're small minded.
I said, I spent $500 to take a class so I could learn this.
And I can't explain it to you because you're small minded.
Man, he hit you with a lot.
Listen, a nigga would love to tell you
that you don't understand when he lying.
And they love to tell you
that you small-minded when they lying.
Thank you, mama.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning, it's Victoria.
Hey, Victoria.
Victoria.
Victoria, you said Toya or Victoria?
It's actually Victoria government-wise,
but I go by Toya.
Okay.
All right, Toya.
So let's talk about it.
You know an adult liar or you won?
I have been one.
I mean, come on, man.
It's Tampa, Florida.
This is what we do.
We drive to the courthouse, no license for.
Oh, my goodness.
So what you be lying about?
Now, lying to law enforcement don't count.
I actually, I wanted to get out of a ticket.
I had got pulled over.
I know my license was funky, so I faked labor.
You faked labor?
Yes, I did.
How the hell do you fake a whole labor?
Were you pregnant? Yeah.
No, I wasn't. I wasn't.
Oh, so that stomach came in handy, huh?
Yes, it did. They escorted me, though, the whole interstate ride when I got there.
But come on now, they're not going to sit there and actually do the paperwork.
So I had to wait like 15 minutes, and then I drove off from TDA.
Now, how many months do you usually look on a regular basis when you're just walking around?
No, I'm slim. When I changed, y'all were like, all right. I don't know how I pulled that off.
How do you fake label it if you slim? I don't know. I have no idea. It just must have been
simple. It's Florida, man. You sure you don't look like a lowercase b? No, I bet. Oh, no,
absolutely not. You can check that resume. Okay. I'm about to bust
35.3. You could be lying.
Well, congratulations. Congratulations,
man. Thank you. You the type of...
I just want to say, DJ
Emi, I love you. Charlamagne, you are
amazing. Like, for real. Thank you,
Queen. You're awesome as well.
Absolutely. So, one more thing. If you fake the
pregnancy, you definitely fake the orgasm, huh?
I mean, I'm a mother of twins, so you feel me?
I know.
I know we're amazing.
She could be lying.
What did she say?
She definitely could be lying, but she called him amazing.
I am.
That's a lie.
You got great taste.
Thank you, Mama.
What's the moral of the story?
The moral of the story is there's no need to be lying about things.
The truth doesn't cost you anything, but a lie can cost you everything.
Okay? Maybe there's a time can cost you everything. Okay?
Maybe there's a time and place to lie.
I don't know.
I just don't understand why adults be lying to other adults for no reason.
I understand her with the ticket.
That's a little different.
Yeah, I would lie in that situation too.
But just when people just randomly volunteer information to you
just because they're trying to mess with your reality,
I don't understand it.
Envy, next time you get pulled over and say you're pregnant.
I'll try.
It's The Breakfast Club.

Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show,
where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs,
the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast Post Run High
is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories,
their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.
Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey, what's up? This is Ramses Jha.
And I go by the name Q Ward.
And we'd like you to join us each week for our show, Civic Cipher.
That's right. We discuss social issues, especially those that affect black and brown people,
but in a way that informs and empowers all people.
We discuss everything from prejudice to politics to police violence, and we try to give you the tools to create positive change in your home, workplace, and social circle.
We're going to learn how to become better allies to each other.
So join us each Saturday for Civic Cipher on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey, y'all.
Nimany here.
I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records.
Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman,
Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop.
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. 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.
Hey, everyone. Apple Podcasts, or wherever
you listen to podcasts. Hi, I'm Dani Shapiro, host of the hit podcast, Family Secrets. How would you
feel if when you met your biological father for the first time, he didn't even say hello? And what if
your past itself was a secret and the time had suddenly come to share that past with your child?
These are just a few of the powerful and profound questions we'll be asking on our 11th season of
Family Secrets. Listen to season 11 of Family Secrets on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
