Honestly, just be blessed that God blessed us with a day to live every day. That's it, brother. Hello, who's this?

This is D from the Chuck. D from the Chuck. What's going on? Get it off your chest, bro. Why don't you give some advice, fellas? I'm a married man. Newly married. I just need some advice, fellas. I'm a married man, newly married. I just wanted to know, what can I do to spice up my relationship with my wife? You mean spice up how?

In what department? We've been dating for a while. We've been dating for years, but we're newly married. I feel like we're kind of getting into the normal like the normal relationship group we're just going to bed at night and you know we used to go out and party and do all kind of stuff like how can we get back into it what can i do i mean you never you never should stop dating your wife i think that's the biggest thing you know what i mean i think sometimes we as men get complacent but you can never stop dating her right keep courting her constantly.

Right. And then there's also, if you don't want to go out at night, because I know sometimes it's difficult to go out at night, there's always brunches and day parties. You can go to restaurants during the day that play music so you can get back home when you need to get back home. And you can do things. Like, what is she into?

Is she into hair? What TV shows? Yeah, she's into hair and, like, makeup and, you know, and our kids and stuff like that. I just feel like we're just getting into this groove where we're just being normal people and we wasn't like that before.

It's difficult. Life happens, but you got to take the necessary steps to make sure that, like Charlamagne said, you always continue to date. That might mean go out Friday night. It doesn't have to be an expensive restaurant, depending on how much you make or what you can afford. It could be just a date night at the movies. It could be, take

her to a play. It could be something as small as she'd like hair and makeup. There's so many hair and makeup shows all over the country. You know what I mean? That's in the local area, depending on where you're at. Take her to a hair and makeup show. Just do things that just show that you care. You know, the typical flowers, the typical, if she likes Caribbean food,

bring a Caribbean food. If she likes cheesecake, bring a cheesecake from her favorite spot. You know, little things like that. It doesn't have to be her birthday or anniversary to do those type of things, but it just shows her you care. Okay, thank you. Never stop dating her, bro. Let me shout it out right quick. Go ahead, bro. I want to shout out my wife,

Sonequa. I love you very much, baby. Can't wait to see you, babe. There you go. Thanks, fellas. And don't forget the edibles. Oh, edibles. Edibles always work, too. Underwear? Underwear?

Wow. McDonald's is not how it works. Yes. What happened, man? So I have a fitness event called Madhouse Health Games. I do it for the first two years in my hometown, Indiana. I think it's going to be successful. Didn't get the tournament I wanted.

Depending on my family and friends helping put it together, it was a dud. I moved down to Georgia. I moved down to Georgia, and it's going to be one of the biggest fitness games down here in the state. And I'm bootstrapping it all myself. No team or nothing. I have to take the handicaps off, drain the wheels off,

and get it all done myself. That's how it always is, man. You know that. You know nine times out of ten you're going to get more support somewhere else than in your hometown. You know that. Shouldn't be like that, though.

It shouldn't be. And you know, you can't ever expect, and I've learned this from starting businesses, you can't ever expect, and I've learned this from starting businesses, you can't ever expect the people around you that they have to do things to support you. You still got to act like you out there doing it on your own and put forth all the effort like you're not going to have that. And if they do support you, that's a great and amazing surprise. That's just the way people are sometimes. Hello, who's this?

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.

a complete testament of who I am and how I've grown as a man. You know what I'm saying? Now, I was going to ask you, you know, you had two kids, and I've been seeing your video of your kids beating you up. Three now, three now, man. Three all together.

something about my kids, and the reason why I go so hard and why it's so important because the time that I spend away from my kids got to mean something, man. You feel what I'm saying? I'm really sacrificing time away from my kids, not seeing them for this. You feel me? So it got to mean something.

It got to work. You know, it got to work for me. It got to work for them because that's the foundation that I'm laying. You feel what I'm saying? And my kids don't know they Daddy G Herbo for real. Like, he'll sign, because everybody,

you know, we'll be walking in the airport or something and people will be like, hey, yo, son, hey.

He's a celebrity. How do you know my name? He's five. He don't really understand. He asks me now, like, Daddy, am I famous?

them like a celebrity but it's like i'm saying that to say like i want all my kids to have foundation balance you feel me so it gotta mean something me moving fast i'll be on the road so much and worry about money and you you don't even you don't even realize you really raising your kids a certain way you feel i'm saying like i don't want my kid to grow up how i grew up for one but i don't want to grow up just like an industry kid or like you know i'm saying i want my kid to grow up regular man i want him to just have his innocence you feel me that's charismatic and freedom to just beat them all my kids you feel i'm saying and that's important so and i always used to say that i gotta go hard well i could have the freedom to take a yell for real like a real year to just travel and be with my family you know i'm saying like i always been wanted to be that type of type of artist to have it because i feel like i ain't gonna be able

to raise my kids right if i'm just focused on yeah sounds on the album too does he understand that how did he react he was uh he called me on facetime, too. Does he understand that? How did he react when he heard it? He called me on FaceTime. He called me first. He's like, Daddy, it's your birthday? I'm like, yeah, it's my birthday. He said, I didn't miss it. I said, no.

He said, I was so scared I was going to miss your birthday. It just dropped. Your birthday just dropped. We're talking about the album. Your birthday just came out. And he was listening to the song. He was listening to me on the TV and he turned around. It's just crazy

that he really understand it. You feel what I'm saying? He's seeing it now. He a fan of the music. He don't just listen to my music. He just a fan of music

and the culture. You know what I'm saying? But that's like I noticed that and that's why I don't whoop my kids. I just let them how I grew up.

That's why I'm so smart now. I was exposed to so much, you feel what I'm saying? Like, you gotta still expose your kids to things so we can learn. Like,

I feel like that's knowledge that my son growing up, I'm just be able to like polish it all up just by talking to him, you know? I'm gonna be honest

with all my kids, you feel what I'm saying? And that's how they're gonna have to structure that foundation because that's how I got it and my parents was just honest with me,

brutally honest. We saw you in protective father mode, when was that? when you was out with your child and somebody yeah it was being a little too pushy yeah yeah the crew league the crew league i just be trying to like you know i'm cool i'm friendly you found sam but i would just be trying to like it ain't really that you know because a lot of times people be trying to go viral and i was stopping it right then because had it been something that would have offended me it would have went all the way to a whole nother level so people thought i was i was joking but i wasn't really i wasn't mad and then

i was just showing them like don't play especially when you with your kids absolutely you can't even play wild with nobody that i care about especially my kids so i just wanted to just let like just draw that line right there all right we got more with g herbo when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club All right, we got more with G Herbo. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with G Herbo.

Yee. You think that people don't respect the Chicago music scene the way that they should? I was just at that Chella's birthday party, my girl Chella. And I seen Sasha Gohard was there. Katie got should. I was just at that Chella's birthday party, my girl Chella, and I seen Sasha Gohard was there, Katie got bands. Yeah, that's her. You know, you was there. Yeah.

But you guys have a lot of great artists, but Charlamagne, you guys gonna have this discussion about the whole Chief Keef thing that went viral. Yeah. And so,

what are your thoughts on that? You think people aren't giving you guys the credit? It's about accountability, too. I don't, I'm not even gonna say people not giving us the credit. We're not really, like, laying our mark the way we're supposed to, you feel what I'm saying. I'm not even going to say people not giving us the credit. We're not really like

laying our mark the way we're supposed to. You feel what I'm saying? I'm just saying that because I feel like we just need to unify more. And that's what makes other cities stick out.

And I ain't even going to say that we don't get the respect because people see it. They just waiting on us to go crazy. Like, Katy got a song with Nicki Minaj right now.

You feel me? We always had the respect that we deserve, but we just got to, like, own it. I feel like Chicago's always gotten their credit music-wise, though. I've never looked at Chicago. We always got our credit. Like, everybody from our generation to the generation before,

we always got our flowers in Chicago, you know? I just feel like we never really capitalized off of it because we not together. How did something like that happen? I don't know. I really don't know, man. What you think, JB? You gotta tell me, man. You be spitting that knowledge when you say

stuff like that. Come on, JB. I think what we really need to unify is OGs. Yeah, we need the OGs. We need better execs. A lot of times, these kids go on their own and they hard. Because of the trauma, it's hard for them to trust the difference.

And what Herb has is that he has execs that have been around the business that can help him and let him see what he needs to actually see in order for him to grow. And I think that as we continue to do that with all these kids and more execs come along, I think that you'll begin to see how we can grow as a community in the business. Let's have the Chief Keef combo because I think what people got misconstrued. I never said Chief Keef wasn't influential. Yeah. I said that the foremost... I know exactly what you said.

Yeah, I said the four most influential rappers of all time is Pac, Jay, Wayne, and Kanye. And then Nyla was like, well, you got to put Chief Keef in there. And I was like, well, I wouldn't put Chief Keef in there because Chief Keef influenced the sound in a was like, well, I wouldn't put Chief Keef in there for, because Chief Keef influenced the sound in a region.

Not saying he's not influential, I just don't think he's one of the four most influential rappers of all time. Yeah, no, see, look, and we both got confused with that. That's what I meant when I was saying it. It's a sound. He influenced the sound and the generation of kids that, and even though

Sosa's a global superstar, but even if he wasn't, just what he did and how he touched so many people and turned them into global superstars, that's what I meant. Like, his influence is crazy. You know he's never done an overseas show? Never.

Because I don't think he can leave or something. I know Sosa ain't performed in Chicago in like eight years. He could sell out two United Centers right now. I know he will. Like, people got to understand, he that big with still, like, everything. Like, I'm saying, hiccups, the stuff that you go through behind the scenes, and you just make it look good. You feel what I'm saying?

Like, a lot of us not really able to reach our full potential because we go through so much. You know what I'm saying? And I can't tell you personally what he going through or what he may went through, why he not able to go tour out the country. You know what I'm saying? I can't go tour out the country right now. You feel what I'm saying?

But I'm just saying that to say you don't know what nobody going through behind the scenes. And you just trying to, like, be the best version of yourself. But I ain't going to lie. I respect you, bro. You always been just solid. You know what I'm saying? And it's hard to recognize solid people that just, like, going to speak their mind. You know, it start a conversation.

It start a controversy because it make you think solid people gonna say stuff that make other people think, you feel what I'm saying? And like, we need it. But you see how, you see it generationally,

though, you see how clearly he influenced the whole generation. And the whole generation be like, no, that's our guy. What? You know, everybody. It was trending for three days. It broke the internet, bro.

Sosa made everybody get dredged. He made everybody rock true religion. He had that Kanye effect on our generation, for real. But Wayne will say he caused the whole generation to get dredged. And he will say. And 2 Chainz will say, I caused the whole generation to start wearing true religion. Or Jim Jones, you know what I mean? But I seen it, though.

I ain't like Wayne didn't do that. He started making street dudes. I seen real street dudes start getting like lip pierced. Wayne did it in Chicago. I know that was unheard of. Do you have a relationship with Wayne? I know he's your favorite. Yeah.

He's my favorite. Like all the time for real. But, um, that's why I said he wanted a foremost influence. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.

Uh, you know, I had to let him a few times. I mean, I let him like, you know what I'm saying? And then, but I really just,

I got to connect for real, for real with him. Yeah, we close to getting something. Man, I really got to get with him for real. Like, that's when I really, I'm going to feel like I made it when I get that. No lying. When I get a song with Wayne, just me and Wayne in the studio working, I'm going to really feel like it's that. It's G Herbo.

We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we're asking what what is one of the fattest things you've done? All right. 800-585-1051. Now, this comes from TikTok. On TikTok, people have been sharing their fat stories, something fat that they've done. I mean, it always involves some Krispy Kreme donuts, always Chick-fil-A, fried lobster always. It's always one of those, or maybe all of them together.

It's just one of those things. And if an edible's involved, it's just all bad. Or maybe all of them together, it's just one of those Things, and if an edible's Involved, it's just all bad It's all bad, I'm not gonna lie Well that's funny, I was gonna say, whenever I have edibles, that's when I do the most And it usually involves any type of Dessert, cause I love dessert, and Phillip Ashley, he makes

These chocolates, chocolate covered cherries And so I had a whole huge box of them That I ordered, and I think I ate like eight of them In a row, And I had dessert. Yeah, I love fat things. Okay. You know, back in the day, you get high. You get the Sunbeam honey bun.

You know, put the Snickers on top of it. Microwave it for 40 seconds. And then eat it with a spoon. Lord have mercy. And even though I've always been lactose intolerant, sometimes you risk it all. And put some ice cream on top of that thing. Man, listen. That's good eating.

You know, I remember I told you about this one time. I was in South Carolina. I think it was called the Thunder Sunday. Thunderbird, Florida, South Carolina. It looked like a cafeteria, but the food in there was amazing. Yes. And I must have went back to that line about five times. It's a buffet.

A buffet, yes. Listen, all my fat stuff involves being hot. You know what I'm saying? You get on them edibles, and I love to eat. So, you know, if I know I'm doing edible, wherever we order food, I'm going to order what I'm going to eat and then I'll order something that I know I'm going to eat when I get to Munchies

later. The problem with that is it's usually a whole other meal. It is. You know what I'm saying? It's not a snack. And you know what's really fat? When you're eating and while you're eating, you're like God damn, it's going to taste good later when I'm high. And I'm going to tell you what else makes you feel fat. When you done passed out from being high and drunk, and it's 12, 31 o'clock, and you wake up,

and you think about them leftovers, and you're like, I got to eat them now while I'm high, because they ain't going to hit the same tomorrow when I'm not. Hello, who's this? This is Dre from Hampton. Talk to us, Dre. So, Che, you know on the cruise, right, they always got food 24 hours, right?

Right. And then they got a set dinner time. Correct. When I was on the cruise, right, they always got food 24 hours, right? Right. And then they got a set dinner time. Correct. When I was on this cruise one time and I got a slice of pizza from the pizzeria and I'm heading back to my room. As I'm heading back to my room, I'm ordering room service. But I'm about to go to dinner in five minutes. See, the cruise is doing dirty, too, because it's free room service.

It's free food. So I do that, too. I order some food room service just in case you don't like the dinner. Right? So you're still good. And then you eat the dinner. I've never been on a cruise. I don't like cruises. I don't want to be in the middle of the ocean in a boat for all them days.

Hello, who's this? It's Brandon. Brandon, what's up, brother? What's the fattest thing you've done? Check it out. You only got like a few choices of food. If these times is Chinese, I think that I mix them together. I bought me a slice, then walked to

the Chinese store, got me some fried rice with some beef and broccoli. And I took the slice out, put the beef and broccoli with the fried rice on top of the slice. Ooh, man. That's some good eating, King. King, that's some good eating, King. King, that's some good eating, King. Was it shrimp fried rice?

No, it was regular fried rice with some onions. Can you imagine the shrimp fried rice on top of a slice of pizza? Lord have mercy. The mixture of the sauces and the cheese is great. You eating, King? How much you weigh, bro? Thank you. How much I weigh? Yeah. I currently weigh 200.

Man, hey, I did that over the holidays. I hadn't had Chinese food in a long time. I went to Chopsticks. Chopsticks in Teaneck, New Jersey. They're like a kosher Chinese restaurant. And they got them chicken egg rolls. I ordered four of them things. And I came home, my daughter asked for one.

I act like I ain't here. Because I knew what I wanted to do later with that egg roll. Hello, who's this? Hello, this is Keita. How are you? Good morning. Hey, Keita. We're talking about doing some fat teens.

Talk to us. Yes. So the fattest thing I did was make a donut burger. Go ahead. Oh, the Lutha? Say it again. The Lutha. Yes.

What the hell is the Lutha? Yeah, I don't know what that is. It's a hamburger patty with bacon on it and I had like some extra bacon with a fried hard egg and a hash brown and then you top it with the donut. That's some real fat ish right there. That's some real fat ish.

Y'all ain't never watched the Boondocks? That was an episode of the Boondocks. The Luther Burgers. Thank you mama. I never tried it though. Every time I see it I'm too scared of that. I ain't never got that high. Iondocks, the Luther Burgers. Thank you, mama. I never tried it, though. Every time I see it, I'm too scared of that. I ain't never got that high. All right. I'm scared of that Luther Burger, bro. Hello, who's this?

Fat in spirit. I ain't gonna lie like the fat the fattest thing for real bro everybody say i'm really like probably six eight two six because i do everything fat bro last week i ate oatmeal because i didn't want to wait on it to cool off i put it in the freezer for about five minutes i don't see nothing wrong with pizza though yeah you do that with pizza yeah pizza be too hot i just put in i put in a little fridge for about maybe 20 seconds. I love pizza hot. I need it to burn my mouth. All right, so what about this? I microwave my ice cream. Now, that's just ridiculous.

Now, that's just stupid. Now, I do microwave it a little bit if it's too hard now. When you put that spoon in there. Yeah, you feel me? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I do that now. You microwave that ice cream? No, no, I do that.

Because you want your ice cream. I like it. You want it to be soft. You want that spoon to just go right through it. Yeah, you don't want it to be rock hard? I don't don't microwave it though i just put it on the counter for a little while i don't microwave it man i give you about 15 seconds in the microwave right i get there okay okay okay all right well thank you all right all right man so now y'all feel fat y'all hungry like i am what's the moral of the story food is amazing bro the moral of the story is that you

know i i think your diet is a bank account and good food choice is a good good investment and it doesn't sound like y'all making good investments like i was talking about we just random things this sound like this some of y'all regular everyday diet all right so just make sure you're making uh you know good food choices to make good investments that's all but man food is life well i love food so much absolutely lord have mercy we all fat we all trans fat bro And we just need to accept it. Don't nobody really like eating healthy? No. No. Oh, healthy can be delicious. That's not true.

Sure. It definitely is. Yeah, I don't know. Sure. It don't taste like the Krispy Kreme donuts. Man, the juices are juices for life. Those are amazing. It's like dessert. They're good. They taste delicious. Mangoes? Oh my God. I love a good juicy mango. If all this stuff

we really love to eat was healthy, like if there was, if Krispy Kreme donuts kept us alive, guess what we'd be eating this morning right now. You know what I mean? If Chick-fil-A is what gave us muscles, guess what we'd be eating this morning. Remember what I used to eat every morning up here? And I love sauteed spinach with garlic.

Yum. All right. Well, Breakfast Club, good morning. The Breakfast Club. Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. But we got the host of one of my favorite podcasts, man. Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder. The Pivot Podcast is here.

What's up? What's happening? Man, appreciate you having us, baby. How y'all feeling this morning? We end up using a lot of your clips on Rumor Report. A lot. I just wanted to say. Oh, we appreciate that. Yeah, for sure.

A lot lately. I really appreciate what y'all are doing, man, because I think it's dope when people who actually lived it control their own narratives. So what made y'all want to do this? Go ahead. You know. You start. You got s***.

We had to get away from the other situations. I remember that. You know what I'm saying? We didn't know what we were going to do. We just weren't going to stay over there. Then Channing and I, we talked. Then eventually we had a conversation with RC. Then we had to pivot from there, and we ended up with a pivot.

You already was doing one, right? Yeah, I was doing something on my own already just because I was just trying to get the reps of interviewing, doing those things, telling certain stories. I did the old show with them. They needed a guest host. telling certain stories. And I did the old show with them. They needed a guest host. Somebody was missing. So I did the old show.

It went really well. And then Alicia Zubikowski, who's the producer, she just hit me up. Like, would you do the show? Would you talk to Channing? Me and Channing talked for about an hour and a half one night, you know, because my first question was, can y'all fix the old thing? You know what I mean? Because I think anytime, like in our culture, when something does become that big and it does become something that the community grabs on to

like i didn't want that to just go away behind nonsense right and then you know once they let me know what the deal was and how everything went down i was like cool let's do it but i can honestly say i didn't expect it to be what it is now though for sure it's so important to take care of the business too aspect of it So when you guys did the Pivot Podcast, what agreement did you come to with each other to make sure that it was fair for everybody? Well, we learned from the other situation where you just jump

out with your homeboys. Hey, we tight. We play together. We know each other. Man, let's do this. And then it blows up and then checks start coming and now you're panicking on the back end. Oh, well, what percentage is mine? What percentage is yours? so before we even shot an episode we set up our business set up our LLC our big one we connected all three of our businesses to it we brought in our producer and our attorney so everybody got their you know their it's not equal percentage we're the we're

the main three owners we own what is 80 percent of it and then so that's already set up before a dime came in so we were fronting money. All of us were paying for our own stuff to start it, to get it going, to travel, to production and everything with our producer. And we were paying for it ourselves and said, okay, we're going to bet on ourselves to come in. But we didn't even, we left the other spot. Me and Fred were like, we got to do a podcast. But then we just saw, man, it's the young kids that come up to you. From the 14-year-old that come and be like, hey, man, that Beasy stuff was crazy. To the 60-year young kids that come up to you from the 14 year old that come and be like hey man that busy stuff was crazy to the 60 year old that comes up to you so we're really affecting

the culture so that's what me and freddie were like but we got to keep this going somehow to really just speak to the people and we wanted to bring in a third and the list was short it was ryan clark we knew the dude he's talented he was that good guy so that's what we brought in but yeah we didn't we didn't have to do it we We didn't just want to do it, but we had to because we thought we were affecting so many people. Well, you know, I'm glad you said that because coming from pro sports, y'all make multi-millions of dollars. Podcast money ain't like that initially.

Yeah, for sure. Not at all. And it might take a while to even get to that multi-millions of dollars. So did that impact anything? No, not for me. Okay. Like I said, it's all about teaching, you know, being transparent and learning and just really opening up conversations. I think that's what we've

been great at and really just jumping in it. We started the other thing just during quarantine. Say we were bored in the house, just trying to get outside and, you know, do some stuff, talk. And then it just evolved into that. for me i never thought i'd be a media right so um just to really be here it's still i think my drive now is the fact that like channing just said people run up on us damn yeah i changed my life the dms man that right there opened my eyes man i need this you know this medicine so that keeps you driving so uh and it really the money's gonna come on the back end. You know what I'm saying?

We can sustain this. So that's not the important thing right now. It's just a conversation. If you chase the money, you'll never catch it. That's right. What you said about athletes being in a box, do you think that's where the stereotype of the dumb jock comes from? Because they only want to talk to you all about one thing?

Well, I don't think it's necessarily like that's where the dumb jock comes from because I think some jocks are dumb. Just like anybody's dumb. Anybody's dumb. You know what I'm saying? People that play ball, that was really good at ball and also not very intelligent. And so I think people try to stereotype everyone in that way.

But I think it's much like anything else is where people see you and box you in or how they meet you. It's hard for them to get outside of that. That's all you do. If you're not having a conversation with us, if you never sit down and bring up another topic, then you don't know what the hell I know.

This show has let us do that. I love so many of y'all episodes, man. Channing, people got mad at you when you called Russell Wilson a square. Do you take that back? Not at all. Not one bit. You know what? I did. I did, you know, so I did creep in

the G-code locker room, bring it up Sierra, and why they together, you know what I'm saying? Actually, Fred and R.C. afterwards, they got on me like, bro, you know what I'm saying, she wanted her peace. You know, you can transition, you know, go to different situations. Kim, from Kanye to David, what's his name? Pete Davidson.

Pete Davidson. I don't follow that, man. But like, they're two different people, so I understand the change, so bring it up, Sarah, bring it up, man. It's family. I'll take that back. But, have y'all seen Russell's videos? You've seen Men's Turn Lamb, it is and it's goofy but no no but there's nothing wrong with being a square I know that's

what I'm saying I didn't call him that's a positive thing to me really but I think I think though you say you didn't call him alcohol I didn't call him alcoholic I didn't call him a deadbeat dad I didn't call him a pedophile some people felt like it was personal like you have a personal issue with him. No, no, no. There's lame people all around, I think. And I'm calling lame if you hadn't thrown a name out. I say lame or cool. It's an opinion. And it's what I thought. Like, these folks have to think I'm lame.

And I don't give a damn. I don't know why so many people were mad at my opinion of Russell Wilson is a square and a lame. But that's what happens when you have a successful podcast. What you say holds a lot more weight than just having a regular conversation. But also, I guess, a person that people look at and they say,

that's a good guy. Why is a good guy considered lame? There's good people that are cool. Yeah. Just the way Russ holds himself,

his little videos, you saw him come up, you see how he done been in the locker room with people that know how to talk to talk until he learned how to talk to talk,

but he's not built like that. I'm an Atlantaanta dude man i'm an atlanta dude and that's how he doesn't understand who in the black community is protected certain people you can't say certain things about and that's beautiful black love you can't violate that yeah but he spoke his opinion so that's one thing chan ain't gonna do you watch the episodes chan ain't gonna be black and white. Ain't no great about Channing. He's gonna always be transparent. You're gonna like it or you're not.

You know what I'm saying? And that's really, that's it. And it works. It wasn't, though, what people tried to make it, though. And I think that was my larger issue. And you got it. And you, I mean, you for sure know. You know what I'm saying?

Like, you say certain things, and you may may not expound and people bring it to something else Right because obviously if I'm connected to him and I'm laughing During the time and even in the piece I said I was like bro, but when you've been in something that's toxic You just want peace you want the opposite? Even I said that but I also agree that he's square You know the thing that frustrated me is not now people are coming at us like you can't say anything about it because of the couple right it's because of the couple and like i had the conversations with people which i love being able to have those conversations i was like look you know in 2016 when michael bennett's walking off the stage in a black lives matter shirt and

they asked russell wilson he says police lives matter and everybody's lives matter of course black lives matter. You know what I'm saying? And so at that time, at that time, like I went on TV that day. I'm on first take. I went on TV like now, like we needed somebody to be strong. And to me, it's like, okay. And then in 2020 and like things change and your minds change.

And, you know, you're now married to a black woman and you have black kids. And so, you know, now those things are important in 2020. He gives this impassionate speech on the ESPYs. And that's cool. Right. But for me, somebody who was the same way in 16 and white people are cussing me, calling me racist. And then in 2020, I'm getting calls every time I get off a TV that my voice is needed. That is square to me. it's okay to say that and also say you know what my daughter i want her to marry a man that loves her the way he seems to love sierra and take care of his kids

not only his kids her other kid like all those things are beautiful and i wanted to be a black man that should be okay to say too yeah you know what i'm saying so i think that i just think that you know that thing was taken way out of context. And I hated that he got killed for it. And his wife was getting messages and different. My daughter's getting messages. Really? Yeah. And so I thought that, you know, like, come on now, like know who you defend it. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves,

for self-preservation and protection. it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.

You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

And right now we kicking it with the Pivot Podcast and the Michael Beasley episode, man. That was so important. And I don't think he would have gotten that open anywhere else. For some reason, he felt very comfortable in that environment. Have y'all followed up with him since then? I hit him constantly. I have a lot of blue texts, though.

And he hasn't really returned anything. But I repost this stuff. Have y'all followed up with him since then? I hit him constantly. I have a lot of blue texts, though. And he hasn't really returned anything. But I repost his stuff. I text him all the time just to check on him. And I think for us, it was one of those things. Honestly, y'all, we weren't expecting it. When he came on, Chan and Fred had to go talk to him to just get him to do the show. Because when you get to our show, it's kind of like not just a regular podcast there's cameras everywhere and

people moving around and so you know he didn't want to do it initially and like through the first few minutes we didn't know what it was going to be and for him to open up in that way like you almost felt like you almost felt ill-equipped for it And I think that's why it ended up being so beautiful was because we all had to like just strip down and just be there with him. And it was, it's the interview that when people talk about where our show has come to this point, the interview everybody appoints to,

because I believe that's kind of what started the pivot. No, I done reached out to him 20 times. And he didn't respond back. And just random, like he just got respond back. It's just random. He just got on the team. He just signed a deal in China, right? Oh, wow. Congratulations.

Oh, dope. Yeah, let me know. Just like on the show when I told him, bro, I got kids. We get the bounce house in the backyard. Every time we had a party, I reach out to the man. Hey, bro, I'm having something Saturday. A couple times I did it, no response. But when you want help, you reach out for it.

And everybody hit us like, this man needs help. Psychiatrists would DM me. Doctors, I know, DM me. Hey, can you please give me a touch of Michael B's? I'm like, listen, I'm not giving this man a number to you, but I keep reaching out to him, and at any moment he does respond, I'll holler at him, and I'll have a team ready to do

something for him, but just wishing the best, but I know we all reached out to him a number of times. So what was that conversation to even get him to do it initially? A couple friends but i know we all reached out to him a number of times so what was that conversation even get him to do it initially a couple friends a couple people i reached out to we talked about doing it when we were on the other side but um that was shot down so thank god it was and i think that's the beauty about what we do like we just let people speak some people come with agendas and they have things that they want to vent to and get off their chest and then we're going to do enough research where we can expound and we can carry a conversation so i think really that's what creates our our dynamic one guess no we're going to do right by them we ain't looking for no clickbaits we're just

looking to let you talk we'll let you see the the Cuts before we send them out all the promos you sign off on them. We're good to go has anyone ever said Can you take this out? Yeah, yeah, we have we have a show we have a show that we can't release because Because the guests come right always a can I ask this right cuz you do you know you study? You know, you know what you want to get to and if you get to it you you you will. And so I'm like, can I ask this? Can I ask this? There's like, oh, yeah, like we all good. So I was like, this is going to be an excellent show. We do the show. Show's phenomenal. I get a call from my agent, my TV agent. And he's like, look, their agent called me. They need to take some things out. And when people take things out, you don't know does you take like a snippet out or you might

take one answer out they took out like 20 minutes of a 45 minute show oh he must have got loose oh she must have got loose you know what i'm saying and i was like well we can't show this 12 minute episode you know and then but it was but it's also one of those things though like when i look back on it i think it's i think it's even cool though that that we could be in that but we could be that way like if you feel that um and they have a doc a documentary coming out so i guess they thought they shared too much but if you feel like you did something on the show and you know you got to take so much out we're not gonna put you out there bad we're not gonna be like nah you said it we're gonna do it you signed a release nah we're not gonna do that because you don't want you don't want that to be attached to your name either and to be honest

They done told somebody done the show will stop the show afterwards and our producer and Freddie and RC be like hey I'm apart with Chan You know I get why I would sexual stuff or just you know just start talking crazy talking about you know back in the day When I used to run in them streets and then after after the show, as soon as it's over, Ray will be like, RC, we can't play this stuff about the club. And then the producer will be like, okay. And she'll edit it up and be right. But, yeah, from all our standpoints, like, we're not there to get anybody.

Right. And I think that's what people gather. A lot of people, one thing I was surprised by is that when people come on, they're always going to watch shows before. They always want to see what to expect when they get there so they already know his approach they know my approach they know freddie's approach so they already are kind of prepared but if they would say something crazy we'll even in the middle of the show sometime we'll be like they'll talk it was a show recently and dude said something fred was like you know i do that all the time yeah i tell the guests right

now i'll be like oh you know we editing that, right? Because you already know why I give somebody unnecessary backlash for no reason. You had a nice moment with Shaq, too. Yeah, yeah. See, the funny thing

with Shaq, he came in shooting. He walked in and started calling me names and, you know, this little ugly-ass little boy. It's your big-ass

right here. That's like I want to come over there and chill. But it was, and even that, that rapport, that rapport was started off camera. So we get on camera. That's why me and Shaq just kept shooting at each other because it was already established. And he's a cool dude.

And that's the comfort level. So he walk in big and everybody kiss his butt. Shaq, Shaq. When he walk in the hotel, we was at everybody ran out. The damn restaurant stopped. People running out trying to take pictures of him. He get upstairs with us. I mean, what your big ass doing?

Why you got them leather shoes on? So we start talking to him like a normal person and that's what loses people up. Because I always say it, man. You put your drawers on before your pants, just like I do.

Like, you know what I'm saying? You're a human being. I can actually see you putting your pants on before your drawers. Some of these nights I've been around you, dog. I'd be wide open sometimes. You ain't been nervous with anybody, though? Like, has anybody made you're drunk. Some of these nights I've been around you, dog. I'd be wide open sometimes.

You ain't been nervous with anybody, though? Like, has anybody made you? Yeah. Oh. Yes. Yeah. What, something that

we ain't seen yet? Caitlyn. Caitlyn Jenner. Yeah. That came out? Yeah. Yeah, Caitlyn Jenner. I didn't see that one.

Oh, no, I did see the one with Caitlyn because she said some real shit because she was like, yo, basically, it seems like it's a trend. Yeah. Everybody didn't be embracing the trend. I saw that. No, I did see the one with Kaylin because she said some real shit because she was like, yo, basically, it seems like it's a trend. Yeah. Everybody didn't be

embracing the trend. I thought that was going to have way more backlash than it did, but it didn't. So the crazy thing is, though,

when we got the opportunity to do it, I was actually in the car with him and I was like, we can't do it. And he was like, no, man,

it's going to be, he was like, I was straight up, he's like, it's going to be a great conversation, RC, and I'm going to do this and I'm going to ask her this. I said, nah, man, I said, because Chan, I was like i was straight up he's like it's gonna be a great conversation rc and i'm gonna i'm gonna do this and i'm gonna ask her this i said nah man i said because chan i was like you

really can't like chan on this one like you gotta kind of i was like because if we upset the trans community i was like we might not have no show right you know what i mean and he was like nah i'm gonna be straight i'm gonna be straight i said but on the other side of it is too i said because she's a guest that's not necessarily like for our target demographic i was like we can't go on there and not be us you don't say like i actually don't want channing or fred or myself to have to be on a show with a guest where we can't do what we do and we can't do it in the way that people have grown to love the show and so like that was the conversation we were having and we had it for a day.

And then like, we finally, and we know. We wake up. Not even a day, we was 10 hours when we figured we could do the show. Oh, yeah. So we had to coach this dude right here. Like, you don't know if he playing or if he serious. Most of the time.

He like, I'm gonna ask her this. What kind of meat you got? Yeah. So that was good. Oh my gosh. He still have it. Come on, bruh. No, but wait.

No, just like he said, he whooped out. He whooped out on that question. Just like I see y'all, you know what I'm saying? Y'all get a look and you got next question this. So we got to do the same thing.

Like we'll put our finger up or you got it. Every time I put my finger up during that interview, they both be like. No. I don't think I got out of line, but I did ask real questions. You scared to ask more questions, though. How do you get to a proper understanding if we don't think I got out of line, but I did ask real questions.

You're scared to ask more questions, though. How do you get to a proper understanding if we don't have these real conversations, though? You got to have these real conversations. What question would you ask, Trin, that you were scared to ask? Like, man, what you got in your drawers? You know what I'm saying? Like, that's what I say. You say that usually?

I would say, yeah. I would say this. Like, my thing is like, man, all the sugar. It's funny because all that sugar coating with people like, so I've heard in the past. I listened to another interview of yours and tried to sneak up on a topic. Let me not waste your time. Let me just ask the question. So in that one, I didn't just

ask the question. And R.C. would be like, you real nice with this one, C. You scared, bro. People know Chan. They'll come in there looking for Chan like Shaq. You know what I'm saying? They come in there and they they trying to get him open. Because when you break him, you break the ice and the interview just go.

We got more with the Pivot Podcast coming up on the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne Tha God, Angel Lee, DJ Envy. And right now we kicking it with the Pivot Podcast. I want to tap back into the Michael Beasley combo and the mental health combo. Was that ever something y'all were able to discuss as athletes y'all y'all mental health i think when y'all were playing when you were playing you don't really pay attention to it

i mean you're a warrior you know you're just out there competing you're trying to knock the next guy head off or try to avoid getting your head knocked off so that conversation especially when we were playing it wasn't as prevalent, you know, as important as it is now. But on the other side of that, you know, now that we are out of the game, we're able to see these guys that are either committing suicide

or struggling or going through these mental health issues. You know, we always try to bring it to the forefront, you know, and I knew that before the Beasley episode, for example, there were some questions about, you know, his state of, you know, mind. And that was a few angles and a few questions that we were going to ask, but we didn't know it was going to go that deep, you know. So we always want to, you know, before we would call it a check in, you know, check on your people, follow up, see how they're doing because you just never know. Cause even in our game, is it like 78 or 87% of the guys are broke, filed bankrupt or divorced within three years when they're done. And that can

put pressure and expedite whatever's going on upstairs. You get into depression, you know, the anxiety of thinking what the next dollar coming from. Because guys, you get in at such a young age, you don't necessarily know which way you're going to go. But the good thing is the NFL provides all of those resources. Really? All of them. If anybody, I heard a comment the other day say, what can we do?

We got to get with the NFL PA and do this and that. They already doing that. The players just got to that the players just gotta take the time to go take advantage of the resources they give them they've got money laid out everywhere so you just gotta go you gotta put that in your everyday routine and say this is what matters to me you gotta do it now though especially for the young guys that's active they gotta do it right now but you're so much I think you're so much more evolved like I gotta give you some love I'm gonna go Freddie flowers here. Oh

You and you starting to speak about mental health made me actually check myself I remember meeting you at ESPN one you were way nicer and more polite than I thought you'd be The show I'm like, telling people they box trash. And I gotta be a bad guy. But but so and just like because, you know, and I and I've talked about it with them all the time. You know, like I grew up both parents, you know, great childhood. But like my parents were really tough. My parents were my day worked hard as hell. And they said, you know, like my mom told me, you know, like depression is something that black, a black man can't afford, right. Or, or, or sadness or different things like that. And so, you know, there were times where I could have been battling, battle, battling things and just not, not let myself accept it. Right. Because to me it was unacceptable.

And I've had to learn as I've gotten older to be sympathetic to those things and to try to understand that one not everybody sees it like me or is is built like me and that these things do truly exist not only in our culture but in the world period and um you know from listening to you uh my homeboy and Monday and Monday said something Monday right Ryan said something on his episode that i thought was so deep he said what people got to understand is what's good for black people can be good for all people you know and so i had to truly start start getting out of that mindset of nah you don't have to tough your way through everything like you can talk to people like you can you are also dealing with things because like when i played like i was an undrafted dude you know i spent my first four years trying not to be cut.

You know what I mean? And when those things happening happen because I grew up with a mom and with the church every day, it wasn't, you know, you to talk to somebody dealing with something. I just got on my knees. I got in that book, you know, like that was the way I dealt with it. So I am still like at my age like I am still learning and so honestly when we have a Michael Beasley and are able to have that conversation it truly helps me more than anything because it starts to let me know that these things are real um you know you have to deal with them people have to deal with them and it's okay because I truly felt like it wasn't even in my parenting like I've had to adjust you know as well but I think and I say I'm the caveman of the crew they're way more evolved than I am and I'm learning now you know the mental health awareness ain't been about

10 years now that it's really come to the forefront maybe less especially in our community yeah so you playing ball you don't grind your whole life to be the one percent of one percent you break your finger tied to the next one. You dislocate your shoulder, pop it back in and go play. So we're doing all this on the field to play ball, to make money. You're the best of the best. You woke up sad. I remember some guys just being like, man,

I'm down. And you look at, bro, let's go. It's time to play. This is a barbaric sport. No, no, no. There's no off. There's no replacement for you. And he's worse than you. That's why he's your damn backup. So I think, like, that barbaric side of football,

especially, you know, basketball and things are different, but football, exactly. Physically, I have to see something wrong with you. If I see your bone

pop out of your ankle, okay, bro, you can take a couple weeks off. You're depressed. What does that mean? Yeah. And I didn't, when I played,

I didn't understand it and I knew guys were going through stuff I tell the story like Junior Seau who took his own life that was my homeboy that was my dude

and I remember the day I saw it I called his phone and when the voicemail and I just broke down in tears and that it started clicking to me talking to Ricky Williams a lot post career

and Ricky explained it to me like I started really seeing like this is this could be bigger than a torn ACL. This could be life or death. Torn ACL, you miss nine months. This could be life or death when you talk to the mental side. So I have come around from my barbaric and my, you know, caveman ways to really respecting.

And when somebody says they're not feeling good, hey, I need some time. Let me call my homeboy and really talk with him and really break this down. So hopefully, if my old country ass can do it, I need some time let me call my homeboy and really talk with him and really break this down so I hopefully that hopefully if my old country ass can do it the whole league and the world

will open up especially black people will open up and understand this could be bigger than something you can see something you can't see might be a bigger even

than something you can watch walking towards you in the hallway I wonder if it's easier to play football than it is a sport like basketball because of the fact

you know they always say hurt people hurt people you can actually go out there and hurt somebody, and you get paid for it. That's what you're supposed to do. Like, I wonder. To take, to your point, to take a human being's physical person

and not be concerned with it, if I hit him in his knee and it pops backwards and a bone pops out, good job. You'll get patted on the back. That was a hell of a hit. You knock a dude to sleep. That was a hell of a hit pops out. Good job. You'll get patted on the back. That was a hell of a hit. You knock a dude to sleep. That was a hell of a hit, bro. So do you have to disconnect yourself from almost humanity

to go out there on Sunday? Because I can't look. Well, me and Freddie, he was an office player. When I played Freddie, I couldn't look at Freddie. Freddie, my homeboy, my dog. We both gators. You know what I'm saying? I know he got kids.

I know he's mad. I know he's a happy dude If I get a chance To knock him to sleep I have to do it That's my job So I had to disconnect myself From the relationship

And disconnect myself From human beings I'm not walking in pubs Busting my head In nobody's chest Down the seafood aisle But when I get on The football field

The hell with you The hell with you The hell with you If I don't do my job I'm getting cut And I'm gonna lose my check Did you put that much with you, the hell with you. If I don't do my job, I'm getting cut and I'm going to lose my check. Did you put that much thought into it though?

Because it wasn't, like I played since I was four and it was just always the same thing, you know, like we're going to play and it was what it was. I'm in the backyard

playing throw up tackle with the homeboys. Yeah, I'm going to try to smash you through this fence and you know, hopefully your mom will go cook tonight and we just go all eat together

and I think, I don't know man, I just think like for us, you know, I tell people all the and we just go all eat together and i think i don't know man i just think like like for us you know i tell people all the time like i only wanted one job my whole life and that was to play football and i did it for free for so long that when they would pay me like i was like oh this is this is what it's supposed to be and that was i think that was it also played into it though like we don't get to call out like we don't have holidays right you working on christmas you're working on thanksgiving like you don't you don't have sick days when i was when i was sick you know i'm like when i was sick i went to work every day i couldn't stand up

straight for a month but i went to work every day because they couldn't figure out what was wrong with me because that's what you're supposed to do and about 11 o'clock every day they'd send me home you know because i had a fever or whatever and so I think you know we were just always taught that if you ain't dead you got to be here and so I think for us though Charlemagne that crossed over mentally and emotionally as well it's like I can't go in here and tell these people I don't feel good I don't have it and I think that part played into it and the the physicality of it to me was was what defined you you know i mean like i felt like like i respect i can say this i respect tougher individuals more than i respect talented individuals you know i mean like it was some dudes that like this dude right here

one of the most talented humans i've ever played against like you couldn't touch him in a phone booth but he was also a dog and like that was what I admired about him and I think when people constantly in our locker in our life in our world when people constantly applaud you for toughness it makes you want it more like when I would put people to sleep you know I mean like they would love it and I was like oh that's all I gotta do is just run my face into his face and get up first i'll do that every single snap damn because that's what they're gonna pay me for man i think what y'all do is so necessary but i don't think we'd be having these conversations with athletes and about athletes in this way if it wasn't for these kind of platforms because i don't think they would ever go on espn or fox sports anywhere and be that open and vulnerable as they are with y'all.

All the smoke, us, who's the other great ones? Million dollar worth of game. We wouldn't be there without y'all. Yeah, that's real. Thank you for the platform y'all set up. Y'all got three people, smart people, sit down, communicate, interview folks.

learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.

The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.

Yes, you are a donkey. A Florida man attacked an ATM for a very strange reason. It gave him too much money. Florida man is arrested after deputies say he rigged the door to his home in an attempt to electrocute his pregnant wife. Police arrested an Orlando man for attacking a flamingo. The Breakfast Club, bitchy. Donkey of the day. With Charlamagne

the guy. I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this. First of all, what does Yonkers Charla always say about the great state of Florida? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. That is a fact. But one thing I don't do enough is salute the great city of Miami. Drop one of the clues bombs for Miami.

The 305. One of the greatest places on the planet. We don't discuss Miami enough. I know y'all like to go down there for the weather and the beaches and the licking. Okay. And the nightlife. But Miami has contributed so much to the culture of hip hop. Drop one of the clues bombs for Uncle Luke and the two life crew.

Top five rap group of all time. Uncle Luke is a whole legend and should always be respected as such. Y'all wouldn't have parental advisory stickers on albums if it wasn't for Uncle Luke. Uncle Luke, you know, was considered obscene. OK, and went against Congress to fight for the First Amendment. Artists, freedom of speech, he really fought for that, okay? America labeled him explicit, which led to the mandatory parental advisory sticker you see on music now with offensive content, okay? That impacted all musical genres, by the way, not just hip-hop, all right?

He fought for the right to tell big booty hoes, you ain't nothing but a hoochie mama. You ain't nothing but a hoochie mama. Hood rat, hood rat. You hear me? He fought for the right to tell Asian women all around the world, me so horny. Uncle Luke, you hear me? Uncle Luke fought for the right to tell you that Cap D is coming.

And at some point after he comes, you're going to have to put your hands up high, your ass down low, and drop that boom-boom to the floor. That's right. I still got them knees. You hear what I'm saying? That was a good era. Don still got to knees. You hear what I'm saying? That was a good era. Don't play no more. Okay.

Don't play no more. That was a good era. Have we all grown now? Yes. Do we all realize that, you know, the music was misogynistic and sexist? Yes. But can we all admit that problematic music slapped? Okay. And it wouldn't be the same without the toxicity.

And you are a liar. If you say you hear that music now and it doesn't make you feel good. Okay. Drop from the clues bombs for uncle Luke. All right. I still listen to, I want to rock right now. I literally mean right now,

like that's my joint. Okay. This man, uncle Luke had a screaming the color of feces for no damn reason okay proudly screaming out what the color of feces was just because some of y'all doodoo might be green okay sometime might even be a little hint of red depending on if you got hemorrhoids or how much fun you had in the bedroom the night before but it's universally known that doodoo is brown because of the legend named lufa camp. And that's why we are gathered here today, ladies and gentlemen, to discuss Doodoo.

Okay, see, William Carroll is a robber who is currently facing charges of armed robbery and battery. See, a woman was walking her dog in Miami's Edgewater neighborhood. She was picking up her dog's poop when William Carroll pulled up with a knife. No need to listen to me because I need to catch my breath anyway. Okay, but let's go to nbc six south florida for the report please what was supposed to be a quick dog walk monday night turned into a violent attack police say a woman was attacked and robbed on her way back home after walking her dog she stopped on the stairs to her condo to pick up the dog's waist when a man

allegedly came from behind with a knife and strangled her, then allegedly stole her backpack and wallet. Police caught Carroll a few blocks away, out of breath, and they say with the victim's credit cards nearby. He told detectives he didn't do it, but police say he didn't realize he was wearing one of the biggest pieces of evidence, which came from the dog, literally. The police report states a brownish stain was seen on the defendant's shirt, matching the dog poop from the scene.

William Carroll is in jail because, number one, he's a robber. But number two, because of doo-doo. All right. This woman had to wear with all or maybe, you know, just in her fighting a little. She got enough doo-doo on him for cops to notice he had a dog poop stain on his shirt. First of all, you're not just about to blend in when you got doo-doo on you. Okay, even if the clothes you're wearing are indeed a doo-doo brown color, the smell, my G, okay, the odor. We've all had dog poop on our shoe at some point in life.

You can't escape that funky-ass fragrance. All right, think about the time you had to take cleaning doo-doo off your shoes in life. So imagine walking around with it on your shirt. You throw the whole shirt away. Clearly, William, 62 years old, robbing folks at knife point, couldn't afford to throw his shirt away. But the fact you just decided to go to the cultural institution known as Pizza Hut with doo-doo on your shirt. Sir, respect yourself, but also respect the home of the Book It program. You can't just walk up in Pizza Hut with doo-doo on your shirt and get you a personal pan pie and keep it moving.

And furthermore, how stink are you on a regular basis that you don't even notice you got doo-doo on your shirt? Not only did he have doo-doo on his shirt, the officers found the victim's belongings and the knife. So it's an open and shut case. Now, William Carroll is currently in the Turner-Gofield Night Correctional Center.

All you brothers in that facility who are listening to The Breakfast Club this morning, you're listening to Charlamagne the God deliver this donkey of the day. If you don't see that man, William Carroll, and say, don't stop, pop that bussy, let me see you, Doo-Doo Brown. If y'all not calling that man Doo-Doo Brown for the rest of his life, for the rest of his stay in that facility, then y'all have collectively failed Miami-Dade County. I'm not saying harass the man.

I'm just saying his life, your entertainment, okay? Y'all just trying to kill some time behind those walls, and him ending up there because, one, he made the poor choice to rob and steal, and, two, because of doo-doo. It's just too much comedy gold to not let the jokes fly. Please give William Carroll, a.k.a. Doo-Doo Brown, the biggest he-haw. You tired, man? A little bit.

You sweating? A little bit. Let that damn, let that damn, that scar fly one more time, though. Go, go, go, go, go, go. Get low. Oh, get low. Oh, low. Megan got nothing on you.

Get low. I'm glad you know. I'm glad you know. Why can't y'all just admit, y'all be out here judging these kids, y'all be out here trying to act so woke, judging these kids for the content of their music, and this is what we grew up on, okay? We need oxygen bro our era was so toxic and so problematic but so damn fun okay all right do you even have those classic tunes without the toxicity drink some water i'm fine yeah. Yeah, all right. Okay? Don't think I'm not fine. I am fine.

You hear me? All right. I am 43 with the knees of a 41-year-old. You look like you need a little Bengay. What? I did say pop that bussy. You know what? So who Bengay?

I will be. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Pick up the phone, baby. 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 and Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy and

Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking about Channing Crowder. Channing Crowder, they was on the Pivot podcast, Salute to the Pivot podcast, one of my favorite podcasts. Channing Crowder was talking to cornerback Denzel Ward. He's a cornerback for the

Cleveland Browns, and Channing had this to say about Mr. Denzel Ward. You are beautiful. You got pretty eyes. You got good skin. You got little highlights. You're a dog now. I watch you play. You're a dog. But did you have to fight

that? You look so pleasant. But then you got to choke a bitch to sleeping it, you know what I'm saying? Like, do dudes try you when they see you and be like, oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no. This dude got you. You had to fight that? I mean, you're the first dude that called me beautiful.

Bro, you are beautiful. I don't even know how to respond to that. So now the question is, what do you think of that conversation? I see absolutely positively nothing wrong with it. You know, I compliment brothers like that all of the time. You know, I saw Kevin Gates last week or whenever Kevin Gates was up here. And I said, yo, you look good, brother, because you can see that his skin look healthy. He was glowing. You could tell he lost weight. You could tell he working out.

You could just, you know, see that he has an inner glow about him, that, you know, he's on the right path mentally, spiritually, physically. I don't see anything wrong with telling another human that. Yeah, I don't see nothing wrong with it. What's the problem? Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with it. I've never called somebody gorgeous, but I've complimented Charlamagne.

Charlamagne has complimented many a times. I've never complimented you. You always compliment me, bro. Never. You never give me anything to compliment about. You always compliment me. Never. Give him a compliment now.

You just touched my leg on the way out and said I got nice legs. I did not say that. You had shorts on. And what did you do? I just reached for something. Busy. But I wasn't reaching. I'm not playing this game with you no more.

It had nothing to do with anything other than that day was out. Hello, who's this? Hey, man, good morning, Breakfast Club. It's your boy Chunks, man, Scratchline ENT. Yo, Charlamagne. Yes, sir. I wanted to comment, man, brother. Like, listen, we as black men, we either going to support each other

and compliment each other or we either going to criticize each other. We can't play both sides in the middle. I agree. We want to address masculinity. Then every time somebody want to compliment another brother, we want to sit here and criticize. Come on, bro. What are we going to do?

We're going to support each other or we're not. I'm with you 100%, my brother. That's why I don't like the backlash that Chant and Crowder is getting. Just like you just said, either they're going to complain about toxic masculinity or when we show each other love, they're going to complain. Which one is it? Hello, who's this? It's Terry from Duval.

Duval. What's your comments, bro? What you think? Hey, my comments, man, I think Shannon was talking to Ward like he was a snack, though. He was putting a lot of emphasis on his comments. And there's a difference between me telling Chalamet, you know, I love the way your bald head looks today.

Or, hey, you know, you look beautiful today. But at the end of the day, when you play those comments back, he was putting a lot of emphasis on my man Ward. Like, I don't know, he was kind of looking at him kind of funny. I didn't feel like that because, you know, I listen to the Pivot podcast. That's how Channing talks. Channing puts a lot of emphasis on everything. But he was putting a lot on, how he looks So like it's a difference

What's wrong with that? You know there's a difference between you Telling anyone something And then him with like all this emphasis On ooh and ah And he like man I ain't get all that I ain't hear all them oohs and ahs and ees

Well if somebody said that to you Would you just say thank you and take it as a compliment? I would, but in the back of my mind, I might feel a little uncomfortable. Why? Because I don't know this man like that. You just told me I got a beautiful bald head and amazing eyebrows. I didn't take nothing from that. But I said it in a very manly way.

It sounds funny, man. All right, man. All right, brother. So you got to walk up to him and say, you got a beautiful bald head. Beautiful bald head. You got a reverse of wood. Sexy eyes. Thank you, King.

Thank you, King. I appreciate that, King. Shut up, man. 800-585-1051. We're talking about Channing Crowder. And this is what he said. You are beautiful. You got pretty eyes.

You got good skin. You got little highlights. But you a dog now. I watch you play. You a dog. Did you have to fight that? When you walk out, you just look so pleasant. But then you got a choker bitch to slay you.

You know what I'm saying? Like, do dudes try you when they see you? Be like, oh. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. This dude got you. You had to fight that? I mean, you're the first dude that called me beautiful. Bro, you are beautiful.

I don't even know how to respond to that. Don't. Don't. What's your thoughts on it? It's the Breakfast Club. Come on. I ain't no witness. I like me.

I like me. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. They can't always be with that. Call me. Add your opinion to the Breakfast Club topic. Come on. 800-585-1051.

I envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Channing Crowder. And this is what he said. You are beautiful Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Channing Crowder, and this is what he said. You are beautiful. You got pretty eyes. You got good skin. You got little highlights.

No, no, no, but you a dog now. I watch you play. You a dog, but did you have to fight that? When you walk out, you just look so pleasant. But then you got a choker bitch to sling you. You know what I'm saying? Like, do dudes try you when they see you?

Be like, oh. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. This dude got you. You had to fight that? I mean, you're the first dude that called me beautiful. Bro, you are beautiful. I don't even know how to respond to that. Don't.

Don't. And we're asking, what's your thoughts? Young men need to give each other compliments more often and stop worrying about things like that. You told the man he looks good, beautiful eyes, beautiful skin. That's right. And that's true. Thank you. Yo, because you know what's so specific about those compliments?

What? Think about how many people you meet whose skin be looking dry and ashy because they don't take care of themselves because they don't drink enough water. You know what I mean? Think about how your eyes be looking yellow water. You know what I mean? Think about how your eyes be looking yellowish. You know what I mean? Reddish because you don't drink enough water because you don't take care of yourself. Those are top-tier compliments when you compliment somebody's skin

and the way their eyes look. Salute to Channing Crowder, man. I don't see nothing wrong with it. All right, well, let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Kelton from Miami. How are you? Hey, what's up, brother?

We're talking about what's your comments on what he said? What I'm saying is, I feel like this. You can't tell the man that he can't feel offended or somebody can't feel offended. The same way if I went up to the beautiful Angela Yee and started complimenting her without her permission, she might find it as toxic and harassing. But if Idris Elba did it, she might find it irrespectable.

It's about the person. You can't tell a person, hey, you have to take this compliment if they don't want it from that individual. Well, who said that? Who said that he was offended? Isn't that what the topic is? No, no, no, no, no, no. The problem is people online were acting like there was something wrong

with what Channing Crowder did by giving him that compliment. Was the comment unsolicited? I mean, most compliments about somebody's looks are unsolicited. Did he ask you, how do you think I look today? No, he did not ask that. But normally when somebody gives you a compliment, it's not because you asked for one. Yeah, but this is a new society we live in. You just can't assume that you can say certain things to people.

I see what you're saying. I see what you're saying. I see what you're saying. If we're trying to play by these new rules, I get it. Yeah, I mean, I think your skin looks good. It's not really offensive. Hello, who's this? It's more like a healthy thing. Hello?

Hey, what's up? This is Jamal from Springfield. Jamal from Springfield. What's up, brother? What's good, y'all? Envy. How you doing, man? I'm doing good, brother.

Yo, I was calling because I hear y'all talking about, you know, the men complimenting men and stuff. Talk to me, King. I'm not going to hold you, man. I'm a light-skinned, 6'2", green-eyed, black guy, so it happens a lot to me, too. Old, young, every race, they kind of look at you weird and be like, oh, you get all the women, huh?

Most overrated description of a human ever when they say light skin, tall with green eyes, okay? You a hater. Nobody cares about that 1980-something beauty standard. You got curly hair too, huh? You got curly hair? Huh? Nah, I don't. Charlemagne's such a hater. When I used to ride my bike a lot, he always used to be like, yo, I love watching you ride your bike.

He never said that. You never said that? You did. You never said that. You asked me where I got my shorts from and all that. You never said that. I did ask you about your shorts. See, see.

But I never said I liked the way you ride your bike. Yes, you do. Yo, Uncle Charlamagne, I can't help what my color is, man. I wish I did have that. Most overrated beauty standard is light skin with green eyes. Y'all look like pit bulls. You a hater. Let your Uncle Charlamagne be the first to tell you light skin people with green eyes look like pit bulls. Let your Uncle Charlotte be the first to tell you

light skin people with green eyes look like pit bulls. You a hater. Hello, who's this? You've been hurt. Light skin brother took your girl or something. Hello, who's this? Light skin men and women look like pit bulls. Uncle Charlotte said it.

Goodness gracious. Hello? Yeah, you got Brandon from Louisville. Brandon. I heard what Brandon from Louisville. Brandon. I mean, I heard what you said about this. Me and my brother, we tell each other as often as possible how good you fucking, like, I mean, you need more black brothers out here lifting each other up, complimenting them, letting them know you look good.

Like, ain't nothing wrong with that. I agree. You got toxic masculinity out here. You got folks out here killing each other over stupid stuff like that. You look good. I agree. I'm with you 100%, my brother. All right, brother.

What's the moral of the story, guys? The moral of the story is never underestimate the power of a random compliment. You know what I'm saying? And I don't think there's anything wrong with a black man, any man, you know, telling another man, you know, they appreciate their appearance. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I think we're so superficial. We'll tell a man he got a nice car.

He got a nice chain. But when a man been in the gym, you know, actually working out or when a man taking care of himself and you can see it in his skin, you can see it in his eyes. You can't give him a compliment. Y'all out your damn mind. Salute to Channing Crowder, man. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
