We just had a real bad car since two weeks ago when we flipped our truck four times.

She's such a soldier, man. She didn't even move out of the car since though, but she's so good, man. But it's been a real struggle in life. That accident got me behind on everything. I know some people get on the radio. Like, don't be on there for stuff, begging for stuff and stuff like that. But, you know, sometimes people just need real help.

I'm at work right now, and I still need help. Where do you work at, brother? I work at a place called Midwest Auto. It's a really nice place. We build Sprinter vans for celebrities, 50 Cent.

Rudy Evil. And I got one question for you, brother. I know, you know, a lot of brothers in the course, as I'm saying, it's very difficult to get, you know, full custody of a child, especially a baby. With a background, too, as well. Yeah, so how did you go about doing that for all the brothers out there that's been fighting and trying? Well, I don't know.

I'm just in a better position. Me and my wife, we made an agreement or whatever. I was just in a better position. It was a better situation for my daughter. Gotcha. Hey, I got a question, too, my brother. Can you and your friends build me a sprinter van under the table for the low or that's not how that works that's not how it works hey man look you can hey man all you gotta do is hit me up on instagram or something i can make anything out for you charlie oh not like that man don't don't start that man i'm not i ain't talking about

that i want a sprinter you see y'all y'all really think I'm on that type of time, don't you? I want a sprinter, bro. Hold on. Pause. Pause? What? Thank you, brother. No, it's not.

Listen, man, don't believe the hype. But you know what you need to do, brother? Well, you know, I'll talk to you outside because if you know how to build those vans a lot of times all it takes is a little bit of funding and you know the biggest thing right now is those cargo vans that they're turning into those uh mercedes uh maybach vehicles that's exactly what they are that's exactly what because all they are is cargo vans that cost about 30,000 and it usually takes about 60,000 worth of work and then they're charging 250,000 so that flip that your owner has is a lot of money well you, you know, we might be able to do something on the side. Yeah, let's talk, my brother,

because my daughter got cheerleading season coming up. I need you. No doubt. I'm serious, man. Hey, I can build a band and I can cook better. Okay, enough said. Well, hold on the line. And his cash app is rootofevil87?

Yes, sir. Help the brother out if you can, whether it's some Pampers, some Formula. I just need a car for me and my daughter. I just need it. Everybody send me a dollar. I don't care. I'm humble. Root of Evil 87? Yes, sir. Help the brother out if you can, whether it's some Pampers, some Formula. I just need a car for me and my daughter. I just need it. Everybody send me a dollar. I don't care.

I'm humble. I'm grateful for whatever. I just need a car for me and my baby. I'm sending you a little something, too, right now, man. Consider it a down payment on that Sprinter that you and your people are going to bill for me for the low luck. Hold on, all right? Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Thank you so much, man.

Now, let's start, for people that don't know, how did Meg Thee Stallion start out as a rapper? How did you get into this rap game? So, my mom was a rapper. And, like, every day after school, and when she would get off work, I would see her in her room writing and stuff. And then she would be, like, going to the studio, and I would be in the little waiting room.

And I'm pretty sure she thought I was in there doing little kid stuff. But I would be listening at the door like, oh, okay, yeah, yeah. And I really thought it was normal. I kind of low-key thought everybody's mom was doing that. Everybody's mom was writing for you. Yeah, I didn't know. So I don't know. It was just normal.

So I would eventually start stealing her CDs with all her instrumentals on there and start sneaking and writing. And then she would be asking, have you seen my cds and i'll be like no like and then like eventually when i graduated from high school i was like i can rap and she was like no you can't and i was like yeah i can she was like let me hear you so i started rapping and she was like oh my god like you can't rap yeah you remember the first verse you spit for i really don't remember what i was saying but i remember i rapped over like the i'm different beat by 2 chainz and she was like oh like so then ever since then like i don't think she still even took me seriously then so i started going to the studio on my own and so when she knew i was at the studio by myself and stuff she was like oh hell no i'm

gonna manage you and we probably was raw too i i was exactly how i rap now like i was talking probably a little more crazier Back then And she said You ain't living that life I was like Mama don't be mad I'm a curse okay And she was like She was like okay

I don't think she knew Exactly how hard I was about to go And she was like I don't know where Your mouth came from And only thing my mama Ever played for me

Was like Pimp C UGK Oh yes sir There you go That's what it came from Like my daddy only played Three Six Mafia

So I'm like I don't understand Why y'all not figuring out why I'm talking like this. So... Didn't... I read somewhere that Pimp C's wife wanted to...

She had vocals for you that she wanted to give you. Did you ever do that? I mean, I got the vocals. I got vocals from her and Juicy J. So, I mean, I was working... I'm still working on my album.

Like, I had to hurry up and put together an EP, like, of songs that I just really liked that I recorded so far. But, like, stuff like that i really like to take my time on because i really look up to pimsy so i really wanted to i want to do the song right how long did it take for you to to i don't want to say pop but to actually pop because it seems like on the outside world it seems like it was fast it seems like it was a little rumbling and then it was gone i feel like i i'm still

getting there like i don't feel like i i'm still getting there like i don't feel like i'm just like i don't i don't feel like i've like popped how many platinum singles you got already uh three i mean no you got the right attitude that's true they don't really count until you put out a debut album right yeah i feel like i just got a lot more work to do like i like to work i like to hustle i don't feel like nothing should just be given to me like I really do want to work for it you think that sometimes people misjudge like looking from the outside with you know hot girl and all of that because I looked at it and we were trying to have this discussion on just being like somebody about your business as a woman that is independent taking care of yourself you go to school TSU shout out to TSU shout out because

they're so proud of you but sometimes people think that means you just out here hoeing and thotting and they think that's what it is um being a hot girl you know it really started off as me really just letting everybody know what type of summer I was about to have like me just being unapologetic unapologetic me just doing what I want to do not really caring about anybody else's opinion like me just being me you know just doing what we want to do as women like we shouldn't be trying to fit into like a certain standard that people try to put us in a certain box people try to put us in you should just do what makes you happy now when the boys got involved it was like oh yeah y'all on that hot girl y'all think y'all this and then it turned into like a whole like battle city boy yeah i was like whoa whoa y'all making this shit up you've all started that shit yeah well they drug it I was like damn like hot girls

Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts morning everybody it's DJ Envy Angela Yee Charlamagne Tha Guy we are The Breakfast Club

we're still kicking it with Meg Thee Stallion Charlamagne do you think this is a situation where a major company is poaching off the work that a 1501 did to help you get to this point? No.

Rock Nation don't have nothing to do with the problems we was already going through. I don't like it. I don't like that people bring up Jay-Z like Jay-Z not worried about them. You're saying names that I feel like you're just trying to draw attention to the situation. Facts are public.

I don't have to lie. Why would I lie? I feel like people want to bully me. You don't have to gang up on me. I didn't do nothing to y'all, so I really don't understand where it's coming from. I think a lot of that came from, I think you in the that that uh rock nation looked at the contract and told you so when when i finally got real lawyers and like you know people around me that knew what they were talking about it was like some things in my contract are just unconscionable in the state

of texas so it's like well let's just fix the things that are wrong so so you don't want to be released you just want to renegotiate i just wanted to renegotiate my contract does it look like things are going to move toward that direction are you feeling like do you feel like if you had a conversation i tried to have a conversation because he said he had carl said he hasn't heard from you since august he's like i haven't heard from me before that like we just don't have a relationship so it's not nothing that's brand new it's not because of rock nation we just already didn't have a relationship. Maybe Carl was the money guy, but he wasn't the day-to-day guy That's what it seems like. I mean, like I said, like I could I well, I know what's being said is not true like all that hundreds of thousands of dollars like

People not even you know Putting it out there like we asked for the proof and you're not even giving us the proof of that I gotta go back and look at some of your old Instagram pictures. Well, thank God we got an album out today. So it's not even my album. It's an EP. It's an EP. So who is Sugar now?

So Sugar is basically just like a girl who is going through it, but she getting through it. It's like me basically letting people know that I'm not perfect. I'm a human. I know I'll be f***ing up, but I'll be trying. I'll be getting through it. You know what I'm not perfect. I'm a human. I know I be f***ing up, but I be trying. I be getting through it. You know what I'm saying? I don't like the fact that everybody be trying to seem so perfect. Why do you want to be perfect?

Obviously, people online, they just are all so amazing, and nothing's wrong with them, and they never been through s*** in their life. So, I mean, that's more so what I'm talking about. Isn't it whack, though, that gotta you gotta learn that in real time like you gotta that have to play out in front of the world you know what i'm saying yeah you learn those growing pains i mean it's just all a part of being in the light so i can't complain i knew knew what i was getting into so it's not nothing i'm upset about it's just i'm just learning as i go so when i bump my head i just be like like, okay, f*** it.

You and DaBaby make great records with each other. Oh, yeah. Are y'all doing an album together? Is that a plan to do a full project? I don't know if we're going to do a full project, but I know we definitely got some music that's going to come up and some other things. I don't want to say it.

Yeah, DaBaby always says if he could do a collab album with somebody, it'd be you. I love him. I really think that'll be fire if we actually did it. type of deal is making a stallion looking for not necessarily in that situation but just in general at this point in your career what would be fair to making a stallion i just want it to be fair and i want it to be you know good for everybody like nothing is going to be perfect but if we can both come to agreement like you gotta you gotta give a little to get a little you know what i'm saying I understand that so I just want everything to be fair do you have a relationship with Jay Prince at all no

so have you ever met him in person though okay growing up did you look up the rap a lot in Jay Prince had to write in youth Oh like I didn't I was young so I didn't really know anything about it you got you I'm sure you've seen all of them no you I only knew the music I didn't know the so I didn't really know anything about it. Oh, got you, got you. I mean, if you knew Pimp C and all of them, though. I only knew the music. Like, I didn't know the backstory. I didn't know the background. I mean, you know, I'm from Houston. You know, you hear things.

But I didn't think it was going to be anything that I would ever have to deal with. Right. Now, let's take a look. I wanted to talk about the song, Bitch. Hold on. Jay accused you of lying this morning on his Instagram. He said you're lying on him In court documents

They fired a substitute teacher because he told the students in the class that Santa Claus and the two fairy is not real. Like this is when, you know, lies go too far. Like you're going gonna fire the man for telling the truth I like no I don't have a problem with you know you want to

teach your kids this lie you know what I mean but don't fire the man cuz he told him the truth what's the point well and what are the benefits of telling your kids about Santa Claus I'm sure there's some parents out there that their kids believe in Santa and he just ruined their world what grade was this again sixth grade I'm sure he just ruined their world. What grade was this again? Sixth grade. I'm sure he just ruined their world. Now, do my kids believe in Santa? Yes, they do. Absolutely positively. Well, what's the benefits? I love

that kids look forward to something. They look forward to getting gifts, being good, making cookies, baking cookies as a family, decorating the tree and all the things that come with Santa and Christmas. And also, for a lot of parents out there, this is a good way to make your kid act right.

You know, around, I say October, December, they start acting up. Oh, you want gifts from Santa? You better,

you know how Santa always sees who's naughty and nice. Kids act straight immediately. I love it. I think it's fun. Okay. Check this out. Little Chad and little Tyrone in class. Okay.

Chad parents got more money than little Tyrone. Tyrone and Chad, both this out. Lil' Chad and Lil' Tyrone in class. Okay, Chad's parents got more money than Lil' Tyrone. Tyrone and Chad both write out their Christmas list to this Santa guy. Correct. All right? Chad gets everything he wants. Lil' Tyrone don't get nothing but some socks. How do you explain to Lil' Tyrone that Santa bought Lil' Chad everything he wanted but didn't bring you what you wanted, Tyrone?

Was Tyrone good all year long? See what I'm saying? I'm just asking a question. I'm just asking a question. Exactly, that dumbness. I'm just asking a question. That dumbness. I'm just asking a question.

That's the stupid. But seriously, how do you explain that? How do you explain that Santa bought you what you wanted, but didn't bring this other little kid what he wanted? Well, you know, Tyrone, Santa's helping a lot of kids that don't have this year, and since you're a good kid and you understand, he's helping those kids that might you know, Tyrone, Santa's helping a lot of kids that don't have this year, and since you're a good kid and you understand, he's helping those

kids that might not understand, little Tyrone. Little Tyrone, I'm one of those kids that ain't got nothing ever, okay? What if little Tyrone wrote on his list, Santa, I want you to give my daddy a job for Christmas. Huh? Hey, Santa, I want you to help my mama through her chemo for Christmas.

Oh, Santa grants all wishes, though. It's all just you always get. He's just the big fat Aladdin. He can do whatever he wants. Well, for those situations, little Tyrone, you got to ask God. Oh, God. Well, listen, ain't none of these coming through. Not God, not Santa.

And now what little Tyrone do? He angry as hell. He mad as hell. Well, I don't know y'all gotta stop this but my kids believe in santa and i love their face i love the experience uh christmas eve every year we ring the doorbell my kids run to the door there's gifts outside they think that santa dropped off some gifts and coming back are you gonna make season dress up in the santa claus shut up man i'm not messing with you let's go go to the phone line. Hello, who's this?

This is Grant. Hey, what's up, man? We're talking about the benefits of parents talking about Santa. When my kids were very young, I allowed them to believe that Santa Claus was real. Yes, I went along with the story. And the true story is I believed that Santa Claus was real when I was young. Me too. Why?

When my kids got older, I let them discover on their own that myth or that there was a purpose to that, which is to challenge reality, but not for me to destroy their dreams by... There you go. ...their thing. Yep. I agree with you. Thank you, bro. Hello, who's this?

This is Reggie. Hey, we're talking about Santa, bro. Yeah, I know that, but then you're sitting up there saying, don't teach your kids about Santa and Doofar, but do you teach your kids there's no God? No, I don't teach my kids there's no God. Yeah, that means you're wrong.

You should. Why would I teach my kids there's no God? I'm confused. There's much more proof that God exists as opposed to Santa Claus. Where's the proof of God? This planet that we're on in the middle of the sky that's rotating. These trees that are growing up out of the ground. These birds that are flying in the sky.

Hey, this thing you got called a body. Okay? No, no, no. Okay, who made it then? Santa. Man. The universe is made by itself. Okay?

No doubt. By asteroids and everything. But then do your history bro no doubt the universe is made by itself but there's not a baby on this planet there's not a baby on this planet that's made by itself see it's still got you still got to take your penis and put it inside the woman and procreate something created those children something created this world but i but all that but i believe in santa and santa does exist and so does the Tooth Fairy. Good morning, Megan. Good morning.

What are the benefits of parents telling kids about Santa? The appreciation that comes from the kids when they realize that their parents were really Santa all those years. Do your kids believe in Santa? I have one that does and one that doesn't. Okay. How does that work? A house divided cannot stand. How does that work?

Well, I have a 10-year-old and a 5-year-old. And once my 10-year-old found out he wasn't real, I just made sure that she didn't tell her little sister. So her little sister could. How did the 10-year-old find out? It was that one year he didn't get what he wanted, huh? Kids at school, I'm sure. There was other kids, yeah. And I wasn't going to lie to her.

But, you know, all those years she never asked me so i never told her okay how can how can parents that they would never lie to their kids but you've been lying to them about sanity their whole life you know my son found the elf on the shelf this weekend and picked it up and was so mad because if you touch the elf on the shelf it loses his magical powers and he was so upset and crying and my daughter had to google and if you put cinnamon around the elf on the shelf, he gets his magical powers back. Yeah, I didn't know that. But Santa, why are you looking at me like that?

I think that the daddy, instead of cinnamon, is putting a little white powder called cocaine on the table somewhere. And he's sniffing it because you sound crazy right now. All right. Well, forget you. Diane. Yes. How are you? How are you?

We're talking about Santa. Okay. Yes, how are you? How are you? We're talking about Santa. Okay, yes. You know what? Thank you very much for what you did. Because when I went through my divorce and I had my son, I straight up told them, there is no Santa Claus. In fact, you better pray to Jesus that you get what you want. Because I am the real Santa Claus.

That's right. I had to prep my baby boy, though, because about that time he was in kindergarten. But I sat him down, told him what was going on. You can make your list, but I want you to pray to God because I am the real Santa Claus. But I told him, I said, no, what you can't do is go to school and tell your little kindergarten friends there's no Santa Claus

because you might upset the children in the classroom and I don't want the teacher calling me. But in the meantime, in between times, no. I'm the real Santa. I told my mother as a single parent, I said this is very stressful and I'm telling my kids the truth. Of course she thought it was horrible.

So Santa is a financial thing for you. Santa is a financial thing for everybody. It's a believing thing. These kids gotta believe. Alright, well listen. All you poor kids out a believing thing. These kids got to believe. They got to believe. All right, well, listen. All you poor kids out there, I want y'all to believe that y'all going to get that Xbox this Christmas. And when you don't get it, I want y'all to still believe by sitting in front of a TV, if you got one, playing imaginary Xbox, imaginary Call of Duty.

A bunch of little kids like this. Pew, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew. Pointing at the TV with their fingers. I'm ducking. Stop it, man. It's cruel to teach kids about Santa Claus. If you can't afford to be Santa and you got this kid expecting all this stuff on this list, knowing you can't afford it, but you still telling them about Santa,

you are setting your kids up for failure and you're doing them a grave disservice. That'd be good. I believe in Santa. I'm doing okay. How do you tell a little poor kid that they didn't get what they want on their list, but this little boy sitting right next to them in class got everything he wanted just because his parents doing a little bit better in life? How?

How? That's not fair. Life's not fair. You know, I bet you it was a black Santa or a white Santa. The white Santa bring you everything you want. Black Santa always let you down. Don't the black Santa look like your daddy? Look at the bed.

All right, we got more coming up next with The Breakfast Club. you want. Black Santa always let you down. Talk to Black Santa, look like your daddy, look at the bed. Alright, we got more coming up next with The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Okay, I said it on the air before. Y'all can front on Mr. Moss and Soulja Boy like y'all want to. Y'all got legendary catalogs. But look, the way it's gonna flow and

how we gonna do it like i told swiss last night i said you already know like this gonna be the biggest thing ever that is gonna be big like it's it's people coming out for this one that can't nobody even bring out the house like and me and soldier we want to make sure that this is really really special for everybody like this is y'all doing in atlanta la la for a reason for a reason it's gonna be a What's the reason? It's going to be a lot of people. Put it this way, it's going to be a lot of people who you want to see on Versus that Versus can't get on Versus.

Yeah. Damn. But they're going to come out for me and bro. That's a dream. Y'all starting to be disrespectful a little bit though. It's all love.

It's all love. Okay, so let me ask you, what do you play against Kiss Me Through the Phone? They're going to tell you it's battle play. I'm just wondering. I'm just wondering.

Like the girl records. I think Bow got the girl records. He's got it. Soldier got the club records. Bow got the girl records. But wait, but that's the funny part. It's a lot of things.

It's a lot of records that I'm a part of that people don't know. So when you hear the street club records that I have in my arsenal, you're going to be like this. Oh my God.

Yeah Like from our perspective Like we talking, we talking, like, we talking a lot of s***, but at the end of the day, our whole objective is to make sure that this is the best

f***ing show that anybody has ever seen. Like, it's gonna be hard for somebody to do verses after what me and Soulja gonna do. Talk your s*** out. It's gonna be really, really,

it's gonna be really tough because we ain't gonna be the only ones a part of our verses. That's all I'm going to say. Like I said, it's a lot of iconic motherfuckers that's going to pop out. Like, it's going to be crazy. Some of the boys said you ain't got a Lambo.

He said he got a Gallardo. You ain't got no Lambo. A what? When was the last time you drove a Gallardo, Evie? You thought too long. Exactly. That shit is light. We don't drive.

Okay. I sit in the backseat, I don't touch the wheel. All right, that's the talk I like, man. It's time to get out. I'm going to let Soulja go crazy. Puff told me you keep it suave and you jab him, you know. Pick the money, tuck the money, man. And throw them away.

I know, man. Why you smoking them nasty ass shit? It's been a lot of deals that I got to, you know. Marlboros or something. Come on, man. Give them to me. No, you gotta throw them away. You can't smoke Marlboro. No, thank you.

Well, because Newport's is crazy. Like, I ain't no Newport. Cigarettes is disgusting. Cigarettes is no. No, Miami. But I'm ready to go to Atlanta. I need to get back home.

I've been gone for too long. I gotta... So you ready to get back in the music? No, back home. She was asking us where you guys at. No, we're going back to Miami. Yeah, then I'm going to... Man, where are the kids?

She has the energy. Yeah, she's not playing around. How has fatherhood changed you? Patience. That's the main thing that I really love about fatherhood is the fact that before I had my kids, I was always just rushing, rushing, rushing.

Whereas now, it's kind of like I can control the time. Do you want to settle down, Val? Huh? Do you want to settle down? If you could hear. I do. I do. I do.

If you could hear. I do. Do I want to get married? No. I don't want to ever get married. You don't believe in marriage? You say ever now. I don't know.

I don't believe. I just don't. Love is pure. It's organic. Why do we have to spend money to put on a festival in front of people? I don't understand that part. I think the stability of it is good, though. Yeah, I like it. Oh, I forgot.

No, it's okay. I forgot y'all was all married. I forgot, yeah. I like it. What do you mean you like it? And I like it. Are y'all back together, Ray? Are y'all good?

Yeah, we went through watching you. What you mean you like it? And I like it. Are y'all back together, Ray? Are y'all good? Yeah, yeah. Like, we went through a tough time, man. It was tough, but I think that once we left L.A. and we went to Miami and we were just able to listen in a different way, and we kind of knew it was, like, really about to be over. You know what I'm saying? We just started to kind of, like, move different. And it just, honestly, thanks to to god it just was a 360 degree turnaround

it just turned into something that was working you know and we've had our arguments but it's totally different now it's like we can argue and then just let it go come back hour or two later and we straight and that's that's what we really just needed to do is really just work it out and just continue to push through in a positive way so even doing the show all the seasons like it helped me because every season i was like i was real bad then i was bad and i was pulled and i started to switch up because i could i could watch myself and that ain't right or i need to make some adjustments so i'm just happy that we're here because my kids it's just like they everything yeah i don't want to see you running around like a single man no i don't party you know

listen i'm burnt out like look when i'm partying, I'm like this. I got the Raycons. I got the Daily. That's what I'm here for. And then, look, when I'm done, I'm like this in the club, like this. It's crazy to hear Ray say, I'm wild. Yeah, like, I'm good. My jersey is on the board.

So how does your wife feel about you hanging with Mr. Moss? Because he's still out here. Yeah, my jersey in the rafters here. My shit is still on my back. My jersey on my back. We don't. This was fun. Thanks, man.

All types of stuff fall out of your pocket. There's hundreds. I know, man. Look. Me and him, we've been working together because we've been with Puff. And so we've been on this marketing, like, mission. You know what I'm saying? And we've been working on some stuff.

We gonna let y'all know soon what we got popping because we got something. Yeah. We got something that works. So what is it? A show maybe? Or a liquor?

A podcast? It's something. When we was in Miami, something went viral with me and him and people thought we was filming. Okay. So we saw the comment, like everybody was like,

yo, oh my God, if they did something together, that'd be like the craziest. And I said, you know what? Whatever the people want. Let's just play around. Let's just see where this shit goes. You got the single guy, the married guy.

Both of you are dads. I'm about to be done working this hard. I'm about to just. If I could put all this time into just being a father, right? Because I'm good at this shit right here. Like, I got a whole strategic template that works every time, over and over. But if I could take all this energy and just put it in the fatherhood,

then I'll be the dopest father. You know what I mean? It'll be the same connect, so I just want to... You got a $100 million company now, right? I just want to get it where it needs to go. We still got a long way. Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. We in motion now. What's that? Oh, that's dope. That's the story in the airport. That's that? Oh, that's dope. The story in the airport. In the airport. That's hard. Hey.

That's hard. All right, we got more with Ray J and Bow Wow 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 Ray J and Bow Wow. Charlamagne. When the last time y'all been out together and you said y'all was going too hard? I was some goodass water, huh? Probably this time. Really? Because we... Y'all been...

This is the most important. But you gotta tell them what I've been doing. I've been looking out for y'all. What you mean? What do you mean? I'm just making sure all the homies is good

because when Puff working, then we working. So, you know what I'm saying? We all do our thing and disperse and come back. When we we all together i feel like i'm the one that's like the most responsible at this point because i don't i don't drink so you know what i mean mr ma said you full of you don't drink we just said we gonna pour and i was just telling him i was like remember you stopped drinking i used to get drunk no i just been up i don't drink

right y'all can smoke my barrels thatos. That's like eight shots right there. Listen, I don't drink. So when I used to drink, I was loose. Like I was, you know what I'm saying? I would pass out and shit. Who didn't take a shot last night? That buddy? I took a shot.

So then why didn't you drink? I mean, Ray, you're lying. What I'm saying is I don't get drunk. He don't be going on them benders like he used to. You sound like a politician, Ray. I don't get drunk. You don't get drunk. You drink, but you don't get drunk.

If you tell me to take a shot, I take a shot. Have you been to the border? Respectfully get drunk you don't get drunk you drink but you don't get drunk if you tell me to take a shot i take a shot have you been to the border respectfully but you don't drink yeah respectfully all right let's take a shot when did you pick up a marlboro habit though when i don't remember when i went no no look when i did big brother in london i was in the house for like 30 days so i couldn't i couldn't do nothing like i couldn't smoke no weed you know i'm saying and so i didn't know that i smoked weed like that until i didn't i couldn't do nothing like i couldn't smoke no weed i'm saying and so i didn't know that i smoked weed like that until i didn't i couldn't smoke weed you couldn't find the weed in london no i was in a house no we was locked in this house where we shoot and so i we live in there with all these other people yeah big brother yeah and so i couldn't it was a it was a but they had cigarettes on board but they had cigarettes oh so i tried to find the lightest one i don't want to talk about it cuz it's bad nobody's cigarette it's the worst thing you could

ever do so but I smoked the lightest one rumor was you did a soul talking about the women you are knocked off in the industry it's it's fake yeah bow wow is in a new space right now he is completely focused on doing the right thing this is doing the right thing. This is doing the right thing. There you go. That's what happens when you hang out with Marry Me. We about to talk about all that.

We going to talk about all that, though. Love, love, love, love. We going to talk about all that. Love, love, love, love. Cheers. Love, love, love, love. We in the love era. When did that rumor come out that you were doing a song talking about all the girls you knocked off?

Because it was an idea that I had. I was like, you know what? If I was to do an album, I want to do something do something different and i was like majority of my hits are relationship records like the heartbroken right heartbreak records uh you know very very women influential records so i say what can i do that's different i want to do something that's different i said yo i want to draw what it was i said i want to draw inspiration from my past relationships and write records about it that's how i really started like when i Out of My System, that was after my breakup with The World Knows,

right? Oh. But now you're doing better, so you don't want to say names because you want to do good and you want to... Oh, I got you guys right.

Here you go, AJ. But this is something I've always done. When I did Like You, that was a duet with, at that time, who I was with,

right? So, coming out of that, right? Then we did Out of My System. That was drawn from my breakup out of that right then we did out of my system thank you very much that was that was that was drawn from my breakup with somebody right so for me i'm like damn i want to do it i got like nine out of my system records where do i draw the inspiration from it has to

come from real life experiences so i think people kind of got a misconstrued a little bit about he's about to be name dropping and doing no it was just you posted that though by mistake if i'm mistaken you posted you were doing it. I was Yeah, then I was like, you know what? I'm not gonna do that and the next album would drop this the last one is called before 30 Because everything that I've accomplished happened before 30, you know, so that's the last one and it's only gonna be nine songs I'm in and out. I'm ready to be done with it. Yeah All the stuff we have that we working on it's got something to do with a whole empire.

You know, because we've been on shows and we've been doing well for a long time with our partners at the networks. And now sometimes it's time to expand it. I saw what we just did with the Zeus Network. Like, it's super popping. Shout out to Lemmy because he's the one. That's his network. But when we jumped on, we felt like it just gave it that extra engine. And now it's popping. And it's beautiful because, you know what I'm saying, that's his network. But when we jumped on, we felt like it just gave it that extra engine. And now it's popping.

And it's beautiful because, you know what I'm saying, it's black owned. And everybody can eat in a different way from the producing side and from the ownership side. So now we got equity in Zeus? No, you get equity in your show. Got you, got you, got you. And I think they're at a level now where I don't know if they're going to probably offer that anymore. Because now it's expanding to the point now where they can't know if they're gonna probably offer that anymore because now it's Expanding to the point now where they can just put out a lot of shows just quality shows

So I'm proud of Zeus Network and let me name and shout out today. Let me the the see, all right I gotta apologize and let me while we laugh gonna be everywhere cuz I thought he was capping the bad girls They came in my condo all the girls did oh, you know I don't allow dudes in my crib. You tried to come in your crib and you didn't let him in. I let him in, but I thought he was capping. He was like, y'all on Zeus. I'm like, get the fuck out of here.

Like, we was about to, you almost got beat up by my security in my condo. That's a compliment. That's a compliment, though, because the level of where it is, you know what I'm saying? And at the end of the day, you know, for sure, I'm sure he accepts it. No, no, no. He understood. Like, it was bad. Like, my security, they was, I'm sure he accepts it. No, no, no. He understood. Like, it was bad. Like, my security, they was pressing me in my condo.

But Lemmy's a good guy. But I didn't know. I didn't know because so many people come up to us and they always diss that. And the third, he was fast talking. It was girls on the condo. I'm partying. He's trying to talk business to me. I don't want to hear that s**t right now.

You're my house. I don't want to talk business. Lemmy probably wanted a bag. We probably had a big bag for you. And we cool now. And we cool now. We probably had a real big bag. Glad y'all cool now

I can't wait till about Four more years from now When Bow Wow really does settle down Cause you think the lifestyle You living now is good I promise you You gonna like the marriage To build stable life better

And look All the times I've been in relationships I do like it But now that we being honest Listen you need a place You need a place I'm gonna tell you what it is The times when I'm in relationships Like I love disability I love waking up Nah I'm gonna tell you What it is The times when I'm

In relationships Like I love this ability I love waking up When I'm in a relationship It's very organized I love it right Cause you a very Organized person

But then it's like It's like Chris Rock And New Jack You know When he went clean And then that thing Kept calling him back It's like

Once I'm doing good And I don't answer my phone When the homies Call in the morning Cause I don't wanna hear The crazy stories That I'm not a part of From the club last night And I'm like yo I'm doing good and I don't answer my phone when the homies call in the morning because I don't want to hear the crazy stories that I'm not a part of from the club last night. And I'm like, yo, I'm going to call you when I get on the balcony. That type of shit.

Like, I love that lifestyle. But then it's like I also feel like it takes away from me being who I am. And it's like I got to be outside. I can't go to the club and pick up a $50,000 bag to host. And I can't have no girls in my section because I'm afraid of what my girl going to say. You can't have girls in your section? No, no afraid of what my girl gonna say because she had me cribbed like no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no more with all the girls from the section going to the he wants to do more than that but I do think it's important I do think it's important to know if you're not ready to

settle down and if you're not ready that's a decision that when you are ready you'll do it but if you're not then I think it's fair for you to say i'm not doing that right now i want to be single do you hear right he just said he is ready i am ready to settle down it's just the battle i have with the lifestyle like it's like damn i feel like i'm 55 years old when i'm in a relationship and i'm and i'm you know hip-hop is like a young man's game. We young forever. Even the oldest rappers still. Is it, though? I mean, it is, but it seems like it's balanced now.

Look at Snoop. Look at Jay. Snoop still does young niggas every day. Like, you know, Dog calls me. I ain't gonna, you know what I mean? But he calls me like, nephew, I'm in Atlanta. Pull up. Like, it's Jermaine acts, and I just got on J.D.'s ass.

Jermaine acts like he's 80 and he's single JD is my pops but he still acts like he's he's 85 years old he's been rich a long time so he probably just want to be comfortable he doesn't like he's not with none of this like he don't want to hang with me shout out to JD he definitely doesn't want to hang out with me all right well we got a lot going on Ray J and Bow Wow still here don't move it hang with me. Shout out to JD. He definitely doesn't want to hang out with me. All right, well, we got a lot going on. Ray J and Bow Wow still here. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.

He had lost his mother trying to reach Florida from Cuba. He looked like a little angel. I mean, he looked so fresh. And his name, Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere. Elian Gonzalez. Elian. Elian Gonzalez.

Elian. Elian. Elian Gonzalez. At the heart of the story is a young boy and the question of who he belongs with. His father in Cuba. Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him. Or his relatives in Miami. Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom.

At the heart of it all is still this painful family separation. Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Ray J and Bow Wow Wow who just popped up on us. Charlamagne? Ray J in here with all types of product. What the hell you got? Y'all can try these fitness belts. What the hell is a fitness belt? Look, look, look. No, no, no. What is a fitness belt?

Honestly, the company put these in my bag. I haven't even went through them yet. Open it up. Let's open it up. I got one on. So you don't know what it is, but you have it on? What is it? Is that like a burrito? Like a Fitbit? I don't know what it is.

Because before you sat down, you said you didn't want your stomach to show on camera. No, I said my stomach don't have to show on camera because I'm fat. Your stomach looked crazy when you did the boot camp. I'm glad you're on some weight. So now you got corsets. Goodness gosh, Ray. You got a grandpa body, man. Hey, give me that body shame, Ray J. got a grandpa body, man. Hey, can we not body shame, AJ?

I said, I'm married. I'm sorry. Yep. You obviously got me misunderstood. Oh, you need to make t-shirts that say, I'm married, I'm sorry. You obviously got me misunderstood. Oh, you need to make t-shirts that say I'm married, I'm sorry. She grabbed your titties? No, she reached for them from afar. DJ Envy right there, she way over here.

She was just insinuating like, oh, your body look good. I swear to God, it was the funniest shit. I was shocked. I ain't never heard that before. Why you don't call these Ray Trainers? You were so big, I almost called you. I never seen you that big. Ray Trainers.

Pause, pause, pause. Ray Trainers. Call these Ray Trainers, bro. Yo. Yo. You were so big, I almost called you. You know why they should be Ray Trainers? Because Charlamagne came up with him and he'll support him.

Ray Trainers. And his support. I put on some weight, too. No, I ain't. No, no. I'm real. Listen, my shit goes all to my face. puffs on me, you might have to take a break from

surrounding. We need the Ray Trainers, man. I did see that on Shay Room. Somebody said Bow Wow look like he been eating while he's sleeping or some like that. Absolutely. Life has been great. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like, after I got out of my last relationship, I just been happy as hell. But that's when you know somebody is healthy and happy, though. Yeah. And you know. How far is from Teterboro from? Oh, yeah, you guys got to go get that.

They have to get on the jet. I got to go back to the wife and kids. You know what I'm saying? So I'm going to spend my time there. I balance it. Do you feel lonely after stuff like this? About when you go home and it's just you single? And you know everybody else going back to their wife and kids?

No, no, no. Listen, it's peaceful. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's peaceful. Man, I wouldn't know how to do it. I'd have my wife and kids. Like Ray and Tuck. I wouldn't even want to work.

I love living by myself Really I love seeing you With your kids though Oh no My daughter And shout out to my daughter Cause she's been

Like with me for like Two months straight That was the longest I've ever had shy And it was like The illest thing ever Like I Like I want my daughter

To live with me Even though Joy ain't going for it I wish she would though But yeah I had my kids for like a month Like two months straight Every day So I really got a chance to understand

what women, you know, our baby moms, I hate to say moms, but our mothers go, like, our kids go through when we not together. Like, damn, this is different. Like, I'm calling my aunt over like, yo, I gotta go to this Quavo party tonight. I gotta be there. I need to babysit her. You know what I'm saying?

Absolutely. I didn't even know how hard it really is. She did a great job. She did a great job with her up until now. That's why. Joy gets on me like, yo, make sure she's up for school. She missed school one time. How difficult is that?

That homework and that schoolwork. Listen, there's a website that you can go to that has all the answers. No, you give me that website when you're done. It was so bad. One time, it was so bad. I didn't understand it. Second grade work can make an adult feel stupid how's your son's mother how's your relationship with her now peaceful because we stay our separate ways yeah she was supposed to say they've both been just doing positive things yeah you was she did post some something

crazy but you didn't acknowledge her postpartum the right way though you think i didn't nah it was harsh? It was a little harsh. It was a lot harsh. I wouldn't even have said nothing on social if I was you. But you know what? And I never really do, but I always saw her this. I said, listen, your life is so peaceful. The worst thing that you could ever do is jump in my room.

Like, this is where you don't even go. You know what I'm saying? Like, I don't want you to look like all these other rappers, baby moms, that be just like, you're just going to look crazy. And they don't care about your feelings. They're going to tell you, call your mama. Call your family. Why are you talking to us?

But we got to love them and respect them. No, that's true. We do. No, no, we do. We do. But when she put out what she put out, it wasn't nothing about me parenting or me being a bad father. It was all personal. It was all, he don't know a real one when he's seen one, baby.

But I don't want a relationship with you. The connection wasn't there. You know what I'm saying? You putting everything on the line. It was just an emotional misunderstanding.

And it was. I love how you're trying to clean up. That's all Ray been doing the whole internet. I'm there for my little man. And part of that, though, is having a good relationship

as far as a co-parenting situation. Facts. With the mom Because your son Is going to see that Feel the energy Yeah

And look Everybody knows right If you're not With the woman Who you have kids with It can be rough Like the first two years I always say that

Like I'm used to that Like me and Joy We didn't start off perfect at all Ours was actually way worse Than me and my You know My son's mom And he was

You know me both Through patience And just And time Going through it And time is a mom But love And we figured it out And it's the same thing I tell her Like I tell Olivia The same thing You know, my son's mom. And he was. You know what I mean? Both through patience and just going through it. Time is a mom. But love.

And we figured it out. And it's the same thing I tell her. Like, I tell Olivia the same thing. I'm like, yo, you just going. I've been here before you have. And this is your first rodeo. This is my second. I've been here. My daughter's 10.

Listen, you will get over this. By the time he is two, you ain't going to think about me. You ain't going to care about my feelings. You're going to probably have a new man. Like, it's all going to be cool. So, but as of now, like, like everything is is everything like my son was just with my mom i mean i can't have a better situation i think she gets it now i think when she saw the backlash that she was getting when she did i see the post that you probably just you know

none of the women that you dated you felt were your soul mate that's how you really feel actually puffs showed me that uh it was something on the showroom where they went through all my lists. Some of your lists. Like 1% of yours. That was a good f***ing list. That was f***ing good. No, listen. Ray J's like, please don't talk to me about no list, about nothing.

Oh, yeah, you know me. I'm in a good place. That's good. We coming to you in a minute, Ray J. You still out here getting... I'm happy to be here. Yeah, we'll get them. I'm happy to be here. Yeah, we'll get them. I'm happy to be here.

But now, like, that's how I really feel, though. I'm not the type of man that goes backwards. You know what I'm saying? I'm always... Not even with Angela? That's my dog. That's my dog. Because you don't think she could have been your soulmate?

I just saw Ang... Me and Ang have a... It's a crazy connection. Like, that's my dog. Like, anything she needs... Like, I don't care. Whatever she needs, she got it. That's my dog. So that need like i don't care whatever she needs she can she got it that's my dog that's not a soulmate it could be but i just have a tight and she's it

she is a great type but i still like to be out having fun i want my girl what is the bow wow type won't you tell her that? I'm still out here. I can't help it. That's your type. Out here. This is going to sound crazy, and I know this is probably going to be like, this is going to go everywhere. You're a whore.

To sum it up. That's what you said? You're a whore. Let him say what he's going to say. It's the truth. Just admit it to yourself. At some point, all men have had to admit that before we change. Ray, have you ever been a whore?

Yeah, I have been. MV, have you ever been a whore? Yeah, I have been. MV, have you ever been a whore? Retired. Same here. I've been a whore. You know what it is? It's like, okay, this is going to sound crazy. I feel like God has made so many beautiful women.

God has blessed a lot of women. That for me just to just be with one person. But then by that, there's God. God has also made a lot of men. Prime example. Last night, I'm in the club, right? Right. We have butter, right? What was club love last night? Club love last night, I'm in the club, right? Right. We have butter, right?

What was club love last night? Club love last night. I'm looking. I'm standing in a section. I'm with somebody. Okay, I know. I know. I'm with the hottest thing.

Let me test the thing you was with last night. You ain't going to find this one. And you know I don't talk. Yeah, this one ducked out the camera, right? Okay. So I'm with the hottest thing. And I'm looking. There's this girl that's just like oh my like

how I can't I don't love love I gotta spread love that's it man it's hard and when you last night that you said it's so fly how is she gonna feel when she hears this but I was our first time hanging out so I should get I should get a pass but I did but I didn't move on nothing like I didn't move on nothing like I was well I pass. But I didn't move on nothing. Like, I didn't move on nothing. Like, I was with who I was with, but I didn't move on nothing. Right, he didn't do anything. It was just acknowledging. But you're saying it's hard for you to just be with one woman.

And that's fair because you're not telling somebody you're committed. Like, I'm with a certified 20. Like, what you listening to? Let me know what you have for me. 20. Right, okay. And then there's also some dubs in the class. Why are you listening to me?

I'm listening to the 20s. Yeah, right. I'm listening to CNN. Why is this guy listening to CNN? I'm listening to CNN. Yo, okay. And then there's also some dubs in the 20s. Yeah, right. I'm listening to C. Why is this guy listening to C? I'm listening to C. Yo, this is crazy. Yo, you are crazy, Ray. I'm listening to C, Green.

Ray is wild. I'm listening to C, Green. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild.

Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Yo, this is wild. Can we get on him now? Can we reverse this moment?

Yes! For me... I'm sure at some point. No, no. I'm sure back then... That's what I'm saying. Jump out of now and go back to the past. If you specify from the past, from the beginning, then I can respond.

That's what I'm saying. We in the past now. Jump out of now and go back to the past. What years? What we talking? That's what i'm saying we in the past now now i'll go back to the past what years what we talking like so that's right so we are we are so yeah which year like long time ago all right here we go a long time ago right like 2000 and like four to 2008 we already believe that when you in a better place you gotta you gotta stay in that better place right right right because I feel fly by just being respectful to everybody. We not saying no names. No, no, no.

But Bauer, you gotta stay with you. You lit. And I'm trying to balance it with you because you my friend. Y'all can't be together no more, bro. I went all the way over the top. That's right. Listen, you and Bauer personally can't be together. The questions that he's scared to answer, I'm gonna answer.

He's real creative. He's gonna answer. The questions that Ray... I got you. I got you. I got you. Yes. How many times, though? For me, I feel like.

For me, I feel like bettering ourselves. You know what I'm saying? As individuals. Hey. I mean. Hey. Talking about topics that. Every time.

About conscience and about. Let me see. Building a culture. You know what I'm saying? Is where I'm at. I know too. Big love. I'm with you, Ray. I'm saying big love. I'm with you. You know what I'm saying? It's where I'm at. I know too. I'm with you, Ray.

I'm with you. I'm with you. And I love what y'all doing. Who are you thinking of? You know what I'm saying? I want the culture. They don't want to hear that positive shit. You guys have been a really staple and a really, the monument for great shows.

You know, because we made it into the radio hall of fame. And who did y'all get to induct, y'all? Who did our intro? Big Ray. To do our intro. Big Ray. I'm sucking a billion on this post. That's right.

You're the newest artist. Let's put the Ray train on. You got the Ray train on? I got to figure it. We got to go back to the drum board and get them tied up. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now Charlamagne might come in on this deal. Get the girdle joint.

Wow. Let's do it. We've been doing it forever. Why can't we? I knew I was supposed to come here today. He went so left. The question was, are we asking my brothers? That's all.

What I want to do, but see where we went is where we should go. That's where we should go. I don't know why you want to go. We're already here now. I think he said clearly it's a yes. We've accomplished the right thing. You said yes, all right. The right thing.

I just said thank you for you know For doing the speech For the Radio Hall of Fame You were our first guest ever Word We were about to lose our job You were our second guest To make sure we were good Well he didn't mean

For that to happen But we appreciate it You gotta still give me the credit I do You do That's like But then you curve it At the end with it

But you was high You know what I'm saying You was But you know I was I was in Vegas Yeah you was Hangover movie was, but you know. I was in Vegas. Yeah, you was. Hangover movie was out.

That's right. And I was inspired. And so I was too inspired. Yeah. Now I feel so much better to grow with you guys. We've grown. Evolution is good. Evolution is good.

You guys are presidential. I've watched both of y'all evolve in such a way. We're still waiting on Mr. Moss to evolve as far as being a man with one woman. But I think you're going to get there. Because the first step is admitting you're a whore. Listen, you guys all went through that phase. At least, I think it's worse

to be with somebody and pretend that's what you want to do if it's not. I love my wife and I want to be with her. So I'll fight for my wife. So why'd you fight for divorce then? It's not because we was going through a tough time. You was mad? It was all over the place.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I love my wife. I don't want to be with nobody else. And Bauer wants the best of both worlds. He wants the stability of being in a relationship. No, no, no. Now, if there's any way possible that I can be with the person I want to be with, I would stop. Who is it?

Who is it? Angela? Angela? Y'all should f***ing go ahead. There's not enough I need is it? Angela? Angela? No way. Okay. Is it Angela? No. But let's see if it can happen.

Because I know who he's talking about. It's not Angela? Angela? No. No Simmons. Oh, I'm sorry. What did I miss? I have to get my ass down.

I got to go. God, stay with me. I got to go. W-W-P-R-F-M-H-D-1 New York. And iHeart Radio Station. Let me put a little bit up for Breakfast Club. Your lifestyle. DJ Envy.

Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha Devil. You're a rockin', rockin', rockin', rockin' with the best. A bunch of f***ers. Yeah, yeah. Just hoppin' for the donkey of the day. That's pretty funny. Charlamagne the Devil?

Possibly. Oh, the Breakfast Club. Donkey of the Day. Those are the three individuals. A Florida man named John Earl taylor he's 34 years old a woman from arizona who has not been identified and a 20 year old woman from lehigh acres florida named shamia tillman what does your uncle charla always say about the great state of florida the craziest people in america come from the bronx and all of florida we know this but

apparently the foolishness that exists in florida is spreading to other parts of the country because never in my existence of life have i met three nugget lovers like john taylor this unidentified arizona woman and shamia tillman oh their love of nuggets is unmatched okay and not just any nuggets the very i think underrated nuggets that exist at a fast food restaurant that we all know and love called w's. Drop one of the clues, bombs from Wendy's. Wendy's is the ultimate comfort food. It just is, okay? Everything from Wendy's seems like a great hug. I'm not even joking. This is not an endorsement. I'm just telling you historically the role Wendy's has played in my life, okay? When I was a young lad living in Mon monks corner south carolina in the 1900s uh like the early ninth decade of the 1900s and i used to have to take my grandmother in town i used to look

forward to it because i knew she was going to want to go to wendy's to get some hot fries okay that was her thing some hot fries from wendy's so for me personally wendy's is comfort food it has a lot of nostalgic and sentimental value to me and the hot fries from wendy's seem like they cut the potatoes right in the back. I mean, just grow them right in the back and then cut them up. Okay. Give me a large hot fries from Wendy's, a chili. I took a sip of water. Mouth started watering. Give me a large hot fries from Wendy's, a chili with a 10 piece spicy chicken nugget meal. And leave me alone. Okay?

Back in the day before I knew I was lactose intolerant, I used to get the frosty from Wendy's and dip the fries in it. Am I the only person who used to do that? Huh? No. Yeah, you're the only one. I never did that. All right. Well, we were discussing fast food restaurants in here earlier.

I don't know if you was in here, Amy. I think you were. And we collectively agreed that Wendy's is our number one option. Okay? Wendy's is the best out of all of them. Not, well, Chick-fil-A, but Chick-fil-A. Chick-fil-A is number one. Chick-fil-A don't count, though.

That's fine dining. That's gourmet. I'm not talking about gourmet. I'm talking about fast food. Are you talking about French fries? Because McDonald's French fries beats Wendy's French fries. Nah, nah, no. You bugging me.

I disagree. I totally disagree. Now, the nuggets, on the other hand, Wendy's all day. Nuggets, bro. But that's why I'm having this conversation. Okay, we're having this conversation. We're having this conversation about Wendy's being comfort food. I know.

Get to the point, Uncle Charlotte. Well, the moral of the story is chicken nuggets, in particular, the spicy chicken nuggets from Wendy's, and the comfort those nuggets provide. Okay, I've been telling y'all people are in pain. Okay? People are hurting. So much trauma going unchecked. So much trauma folks having processed, and people are hurting so much trauma going unchecked so much trauma folks having processed and people are just seeking happiness some people don't have access to resources like therapy and

other methods of healing so they have to find comfort in things like wendy's and if you ask me this is what happened in the case of john earl taylor and all these other people now john is 34 years old and this happened in miami-dade county and he's in jail right now because he's facing charges of armed robbery and carjacking fleeing and eluding police and driving with a suspended license how did he get all those charges because he was hungry and he robbed a man at gunpoint last week outside of a wendy's but he wasn't thinking robbery first he wanted some food so he saw a guy getting out his car and he asked the dude hey could you buy me some chicken nuggets?

The victim told John that he only had enough money for himself and proceeded into the Wendy's. I respect that man's answer. That man kept it real and said, look, I don't have enough for nobody but me. If that baby daddy would have told his baby mama that in regards to just buying McDonald's for his own son, we wouldn't have been having this debate all week on whether he was wrong or not okay this man didn't have no money and clearly john wanted that eight piece eight piece spicy nugget because he decided since he couldn't get the wendy's he was gonna rob john so he pulled out a semi-automatic gun with an extended magazine and robbed the dude of his gold chain and car keys no report on whether he took the wendy's or not and police later found him and the car after they chased him and he wrecked the vehicle what does it say about america that

john taylor don't have money for his own nuggets doesn't have financial access to his own combo meal at wendy's but he got access to a semi-automatic gun with an extended magazine think about that as i move on to arizona because the casa grande police department are looking for a woman who was apparently so upset that the fries she ordered at wendy's were cold and the chicken nuggets were not spicy that she allegedly assaulted an employee let's go to fox 10 phoenix for the report please casa grande police released a surveillance photo of a woman accused of assaulting a fast food worker in the drive-thru it happened at at the only Wendy's restaurant in Casa Grande. Did you make out what she was mad about? Yeah, she said that she got spicy nuggets instead of normal ones.

Come on now. She was saying they were burnt. Verena Hunt was in the drive-thru line trying to place her order. She could hear the exchange between the suspect and the employee through the intercom, and she started recording it on her phone. Okay, that's fine. I don't know why you're out of your car yelling at me. The lady was just like being harassed by another woman and she was saying, oh, give me my effing food. And it was just like a fighting battle, you know,

like she was calling her name. She said, I'm gonna throw this at you. I'm gonna hit you. And that's when, you know, things got really crazy. And I heard like something being thrown. According to police, the angry customer threw the bag with the fries and the nuggets at the employee That lady was definitely overreacting like, you know, there's definitely better ways to handle it, you know It's called temperament control like my three-year-old notices. Oh She right. Well, come on man for those of us who seek out Wendy's is comfort food We understand that pain and when you already hurting from trauma you haven't dealt with, from healing you haven't gotten, and the only thing that's going to make you happy in that

moment, the only thing that's going to comfort you in that moment is some hot fries and spicy nuggets from Wendy's and they end up giving you cold fries and unspicy nuggets? That could take you over the edge. Okay, that's how you know it wasn't what she ordered. She didn't even want it to the point that she threw it at the employees. But now police are looking for her. You know, I'm giving both these people donk here today

because they're going to jail. And if John doesn't have money for wendy's he won't have money for a lawyer and now this poor young lady whatever pain she's dealing with this situation is damn sure gonna make it worse clearly she's stressed out but now she got a charge on top of that having to deal with lawyers bail all that other stuff oh lord now last but certainly not least shamia tillman charged with battery causing bodily harm. Simple battery battery on a law enforcement officer. Criminal mischief and robbery by sudden snatching because investigators said she went to the drive through of Wendy's but wasn't happy with her order. You know why? Because she wanted fries and they didn't have fries.

Let's go to ABC 7 for the report, please. Scratches, bumps, bruises, and a broken iPhone. Employees and customers at this Wendy's last night say Tillman left her mark on them literally, all because she felt shortchanged of french fries. Just before 8 p.m., she ordered food at the drive-thru. Moments later, Tillman entered the Wendy's enraged. Tillman throws a bag of food at the workers.

The fight goes on and then she jumps over the counter. Several workers try to get her under control. Tillman ends up on the floor covered in food and spilled drinks. One man tries to intervene but Tillman smacks him, grabbing the iPhone Max Pro from his hand chucking it at an employee's head. Now the terror didn't stop there. Lee County deputies arrived shortly after and put Tillman in the back of a deputy squad car. She began kicking and screaming and a deputy tried to come over and calm her down. She spat in his eye. Now I know two of these stories of Florida but listen I understand okay I understand Wendy of Florida, but listen, I understand. Okay? I understand Wendy's is comfort food, alright? I would actually call

Wendy's holistic dining at this point, but we can't go around projecting our pain on Wendy's employees and people who won't buy us Wendy's, okay? Wendy's is not a substitute for healing, people. Alright, that Dave's triple of those 20-piece spicy nuggets is comforting, as they may be, isn't an excuse for actual healing, alright?

That chili and those large hot fries are not an excuse, uh, you know, uh, to not go to therapy. All right. This is, this is all this is.

I just not about no damn Wendy's or lack of hot fries and unspicy nuggets. This is hurt people hurting people. Okay. Hurt people seeking comfort and not being able to get the comfort they need. And so they end up bleeding on people who didn't cut them. All right. Just another reason to please, please invest in your mental wealth. Go get some help.

I promise you it'll make those spicy nuggets taste better when you've done some work on yourself. Please give John Taylor from Florida, this unidentified woman from Arizona and Shamia Tillman of Florida. The sweet sounds of the hammer tones. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Yee-haw. Two things.
