Get it off your chest Ain't nothing much man Charlemagne man I'm from Paranoia man What you been doing To go over there Man

You When you tell me You let me know I mean I Listen You know Like I I believe in prayer

And you know I do my breathing exercises But man It's just one of those things Where it's like You kinda gotta let go and let God, man, because as much as we want to protect our kids at all times, we just simply can't.

They still got to go out into this world, you know? How old are they? My son, he's three. He's starting child development. You said your son is what? Three. Yeah, I know, brother. Trust me.

You know they have something certain schools and a lot of schools offer it now where they have cameras all over the school where you can actually log in and see your kids throughout the day. Oh, I got that. You know I they have something certain schools and a lot of schools offer it now. They have cameras all over the school where you could actually log in and see your kids throughout the day. I got that. You know I got that. I don't know if we got all that down here. I'm in the country, man.

Thank you, South Carolina. But honestly, even... You should Google it. I'll tell you this. That makes my parental paranoia worse. Not me. Because you know what? Never mind.

I don't even want to put it out there. But I'm just saying like... Yeah, don't do that. Yeah, I don't even want to put it out there. But it makes my parental paranoia worse. But like I said, man, you just got to let go and let God. There's really nothing we could do, man. But let our kids exist and, you know, just pray for the best, brother.

Nah, I won't. So they have that in public schools and everything? A lot of times, yeah. Wow. Yeah, a lot of times it does. It just gives parents that comfortability that they're able to drop their kids off. And you're able to watch them go from class to class. The only place that they don't have the cameras are of course in the bathroom but it allows you to watch kids

I mean I guess for me if something like that you know you got to let the teachers know like you always watching oh yeah you know sometimes you gotta make random comments like yeah I do that all the time yeah I do that all the time even can't my pop to at camp the other day. Yeah. Parental paranoia is such a real thing. But I think that's just a natural emotion. That natural anxiety parents have is just part of us.

And I'm pretty sure it's always going to be part of us. I'm 44 years old. My mom still checks on me. I learned that from my pops. My pops used to just pop up. And I pop up at camp. Oh, that's me. Who's your child? Which one? Oh, that's me. That pop up. I'd pop up again. Oh, that's me. Who's your child?

Which one? Oh, that's me. That pop up? Oh, that's me. Yep. That's me. I'm like that. You remember in Juice, when Q closed that locker and Bishop was just standing there?

That's me. That's me with all the teachers. What's happening? All right. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. How do you think she's trying to mess your life up?

Not like, just mentally, pretty much mentally. Because we're not together anymore. She still lives, you know, at my own house. You know, like, come home whenever they want to, not paying any bills. You know, and then it's like, when you try to tell them that you got to go, they threaten you. They just, I don't want to do the bad thing thing and, you know, just call the cops or whatever because my son is involved. I just want my son to be in the best position, you know.

Is there any way you guys can do some counseling so y'all can co-parent together so you can have an expert come in and mediate? She doesn't want to do that. She doesn't want any of that. When we try to talk, you know, like I'm getting cut out. Well, sir, you should document all of this and lawyer up. That's all I could say. I document them, but that's what scares

me. I don't want to take my son into, like, you know, the court. You know, it's just, I don't want any, I could get custody and all of that, but it's not, it's beneficial to me, but not to my son. I'm not saying get custody, but you might want to make sure, because, you know, they do look more favorably upon whoever the person is that actually initiates that.

And she might be getting ready to take you to court. And so if it's about the best interest of your son and you guys can't come to any sort of agreement, I do recommend you protect yourself and protect, you know, your rights to actually make sure you can see your son when you need to. Sometimes, you know, that might be the only act right solution. Yeah, I'm trying to do that. It's just like, I just want to say to people, like, when y'all not together anymore, it's the child that's getting hurt. Y'all trying to hurt each other or whatever.

And I don't owe, you don't owe the woman or vice versa anything. No, you don't. And it's a shame. It's about the child. Yeah, that this is happening the way that it is. But I'm only telling you that I would even just talk to a lawyer to see what advice that they would have because they've seen this situation over and over and over again. So they might give you some

solutions that you didn't even think of. Thank you. And Solomon, I have one more question, brother. Yes, sir. I've tried I've tried better. I think better health therapy. I've tried it like many different times. I've had like six sessions. None of them are good, man.

It's just I tried everything, but none of these things are. They're not helping at all. Well, you know, therapy is not one size fits all. You know what I'm saying? You might have to sit down with a few therapists, you know, to figure out the one that's right for you. But also, too, man, it's a lot of other different ways to, you know, define healing. You might find healing through, you know, well, it might help you to heal the journal. You know, you might want to try meditation.

You might want to try some breathing exercises. You might want to try some, you know, regular physical exercise. I'm going to actually get your email, and I'm going to connect you with my partner, Dr. Alfie Breland Noble at the Mental Wealth Alliance, man. And we're going to try to find something that can help you out, my brother. I appreciate it, man. I listen to y'all every day. I appreciate that. Yeah, we're going to get your email right now. Hold on one second. Yes, sir. Hello, who's this?

Hey, hey, Salome. Listen, I'm a married man. I'm about to have no phone sex with you on this damn radio. Oh, I got you stuttering over there, girl. Yeah, just hey, me phone sex. You definitely got him stuttering. Well, get it off your chest, Trav.

No, that's my equipment messing up. What's up? Oh, hey. What's up, Yee? His equipment's messed up. What's up, Trav? What's up, Trav? What's up, Trav?

Listen, I'm calling to talk about, listen, girls got to stop thinking that they man is gay over the littlest things. Like, girls have a problem showing me pictures of their man after they think he's gay or telling me. This girl yesterday was going to say that her man like to sleep naked on his stomach with the like, with the fan blowing on him. And she's like, is that gay? I said, because he's like a little cool breeze on his butt. How does that make him gay? It's hard to sleep

on your stomach, though. I sleep on my stomach all the time. Well, Trav, you are gay. In all fairness. That is a fact, Trav. You know what?

He, he's at a point. I gotta go tell her that her man might be gay. He might be gay. There you have it. Mystery solved. Goodbye, Trav.

Alright, The Breakfast Club, good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's D.E.J. Ye is competitive. So how do you decide what songs make it and what songs don't? You know, in working with them this time, I was like, you know what? I'm gonna make a 12-song song album and six from you and six from

you and I just sort of I just sort of kept it in that 12 box and took the best six from each of them so that way there's no problems no no no no no no no and it was it was good it was I mean me personally like what I was personally doing was like having like my own versus battle between both of them cuz I would like go to Miami. I work with Pharrell. I take that to L.A. Be like, oh, look what me and P did.

He'd be like, what? All right, hold on. You know, it was like a big back and forth. Now, did you see the interview we did with Koi LeRae? Yeah. The conversation.

What were your thoughts about that? Man, I love that girl, man. Yeah, I like her. I like her. Like she's just real like charismatic and I actually like her songs. It's, I like her. I like her. Like, she's just real, like, charismatic. And I actually like her songs. It's funny that your name just kept coming up. I know.

I was like, yo, what I do is just... You were like the bar. You were like the bar. You were like the bar. You were like the bar. You were like the bar. You were like the bar. You were like the bar.

You were like the bar. Oh, okay. You've been playing it every hour. She was excited about it. And she was like, why y'all so excited about this? And I'm here. We was like, because this is our era. This is what we listen to.

Oh, okay, okay, okay. And that's where it came from. All right. Nah, man. You know, I seen it. But, yeah, I like her, man. man i like her she a firecracker you know because i look at music no matter how what age somebody is if i like a song i like a song yep right do you find it that with the younger artists is not as relatable because i've heard people say that too like i can't understand

this it's not for me and that's kind of what that conversation was about. I feel like, you know, for me, man, rap, you got to be like culturally out here. It ain't just about lyrics, bars, so on and so forth. You got to like, you know, it's a whole culture. It's fashion. It's just the energy of knowing what's what and being in tune to what's what. And I feel like when you put that in your lyrics and when you put that in your raps, that's sort of relatable to everybody. Now, maybe some, you know, maybe maybe some of the younger kids don't take that time but i feel like you know when they're passive listening or whatever it it hits everybody sooner or later

now i see your brother is is on the album yeah now you got him you got him back in the studio you got him back working but first of all how did you get him back in the studio okay and two does that mean that we're going to get a Clipse album, maybe? So, listen. This is the play, right? This is the play. So, first, it started with the Nego album. That was an easy ask, because it was like, I was like, man, it's Nego, you know.

We sort of started this bape thing with him, and he putting out an album. Like, yo, we got to do a song for the album. He was like, oh, yeah, yeah, for sure. So, then I came back to him. I was like, yo, it's the last record on my album. i need you to you know give me a verse and he was like i mean all right man like you know i still get to i still get to pull like the little brother card like just and just ask for things and expect to like get him and like i get to like look at him like i mean yeah i just asked for it you got you sort of got to do it. So he did it. He did the record.

But he's definitely looking at me sideways like, yo, you think you're going to keep asking me for these little features? You know what I'm saying? They sounded good. They sounded good. Those are clip songs. Those are clip songs. Yeah, yeah. So is his head in a good spot where maybe it's possible?

I feel like these last two offerings and i feel like the response is um definitely i talked to him this morning he was like i'm hearing what people saying b i'm hearing everybody saying but you know he's not committing all right we got more with pusha t when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club at the time man like i said said, I was like 20. At the time, I was like, man, this is great. Me and my brother just getting in the game. And then you realize how long that jingle has ran.

I'm loving it. You realize that. And then, boom, later on down the line, I did a record with Skrillex. And Arby's used a piece of that record. Mm-hmm. I own 40% of that record. So I was,

I had just been in business with Ardy's, like every few months getting checks for the commercial. That was like the theme music right before it'd be like, we got the meats. Da-da.

Or whatever. Yeah. Boom. So thinking about the money from that and the money that I just I took a one payout on when I was 20

I was like damn this is crazy how much did they pay you back then to do that McDonald's jingle somewhere between a half and a million dollars for me and my brother so shout out Steve Stout

he brought hey Steve I'm not ungrateful man at 20 that's amazing he got you that deal yeah he got me that deal yeah for sure shout out Steve Stout

and they probably didn't know it was going to be used for so long. Probably not, but it was. Goodness gracious. That was. You didn't even hear it? Goodness gracious.

So then Arby's, knowing the history of that, I do discussions and panels and stuff. And people always ask me, like, damn, what are some of your regrets? And I tell them, like, man, I took a payout for something from McDonald's years ago at 20. And I think Arby's called one today. And they were like, man, we got this big fish that we bought. You know, we bought the drop. And I know, you know, this is now we already in business together. They put together the whole play for me.

That is really like a beef. That's really them tapping in. Tapping into the culture. Being like, yo. And it was, you know, they just felt like the whole thing was just synonymous with what I had going on, too, at the time. So it's like. It's perfect. Yeah.

It was like, yo, this is. Who was the executive there that even. Listen. I'm curious. Listen, I didn't meet him, but I'm hearing he's like looking at looked at as a genius. It was something that he had to fight for. They like nixed the idea first. And he like went back like, listen, y'all, I'm telling you I know they love they gave him a promotion

I'm telling you that's why it's so important who's in these positions right these corporations right that can make these decisions because a lot of times people try to be part of the culture but they don't do it right right and the way that they did that was like okay very seamless it was seamless it was clever was synonymous with like just all brands involved. It just made sense. You had invested in a streaming service, too. Is that true? Yeah. Yeah. OK, so is that what's going on with that? Um, I'm not sure. I'm not sure how this one is playing out.

Some investments do well, you know, they turn around. But other ones, you know, we have to wait and see. Okay. We have to wait and see. What about other investments that you've done that have worked out? I also got a business that I actually really love, man. It's medical transportation. Oh, really?

Yeah. And so, like, we got, like, through the Hampton Roads area, it's 20 30 vans that just run you know elderly and older people and people with like illnesses around the city and um it's just been it's been really it's been like really lucrative and like fulfilling actually yeah that's the best thing when you can do something yeah it's like it's really it's really dope when you said that I'm doing something like that now because you know my wife's mother had dementia and we would have to take care of her yeah but i didn't know that the city and the state actually pays family members to take care of her instead of you know getting outside help right i'll pay you because they say you do it anyway and they'll give you money for it so you

can get a salary from helping your mother your grandmother your grandfather wow so we start in a business like that where we're helping people get that money that's their salary to help their loved ones yeah you know before my mom passed it was like nurses she had nurses um my sister's paralyzed my mom was like taking my mom got a nurse taking care of my sister she got a nurse you know i'm saying this is to get paralyzed uh like a stroke something it is and it's not even a stroke it's something it was something in the something in the brain with the uh blood vessels expanding or like an aneurysm but it wasn't it it's a it's a proper term but i'm all of those terms are very close but yeah so um it's been a lot but everything seems to be working itself out and and playing out in a really really good really good

way that's what it is well Well, Pusha, the album is out right now. It's almost dry. I got to thank Pusha, too. A lot of you don't know that me and Pusha, we knew each other from when I was in college. He used to come with me all the time to all the clubs, make sure I was safe. Did you see any of the crazy things he used to do? Because I read

his book. He was there pushing with me. You don't understand. There was one time I was DJing and they was throwing chairs and tables at me and pushing. Was it because of Envy? No, probably because of us. And we hid behind Envy. But when I did my first car show, I called Pusher and I was like

I'm doing my car show and he was like, come get my he had his Ferrari. He was like, come get the Ferrari. And I came and got the Ferrari. And then when I delivered it, we dropped it by accident. We cracked it a little bit. Wow. Did you? No, didn't they have to go fix it?

Wait a minute. In front of it? They probably did. I don't know. In front of it. Wow. But, you know, he wasn't mad about that.

Nah, I'm like, it's just a car. It's just a car. It's just a car. Did you call Embi when you heard all the news about like his book and how his wife couldn't orgasm

just to reassure him? No. I gotta explain it. No, bro. Come on. I can't. Right? Don't. Just don't. All right. You're right. Don't. Push the T. Thank you. The album is him. No. Y'all got to explain it. No, bro. Come on. I can't. Right. Don't.

Just don't. All right. You're right. Don't. Put your teeth in. Thank you. The album is out. Jesus.

Oh, God. He is wild. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Every first responder will tell you, never try to beat a train. After breaking, it can take a mile for a train to completely stop.

So when you come to a rail crossing stop because trains can't paid for by nizza um philip 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 uh 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 thunderbird florence 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, yeah. 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 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 gonna eat and then I'll order something that I know I'm gonna eat when I get to munchies later The problem with that is it's usually a whole other meal 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 this is gonna taste good later when I'm high

And I'm gonna 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 gotta eat them now while I'm high because they ain't gonna hit the same tomorrow when I'm not.

Hello, who's this? This is Dre from Hampton. Talk to us, Dre. So, Jack, you know in the cruise, right, they always got food 24 hours, right? Right.

And then they got a set dinner time. Correct. Well, 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. As I'm heading back to my room, I'm ordering room service, but I'm about to go to dinner in five minutes. I see the cruises do it dirty too

because it's free room service, it's free food. So I do that too. I just order some full room service just in case you don't like the dinner, right? So you still good

and then you eat the dinner. I don't, I've never been on a cruise. Me neither. 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? I check it out. Like, so, you know, you only got like a few choices of food. So, in the meantime, there's Chinese. I figured I'd mix them together.

So, I bought me a slice. Then walked to the Chinese store. Got me some fried rice with some beef and broccoli. Mm. Mm. Ooh, man. That's some good eating, King. King, that's some good eating, King. Ooh. Was it shrimp fried rice?

Can you imagine the shrimp fried rice on top of a slice of pizza? Lord have mercy. The mixture of the sauces and the taste is crazy. You eating, King? How much you weigh, bro? Thank you. How much I weigh? Yeah.

I currently weigh 200. Man, 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. Mm-hmm. 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. Yep.

Yep. That's some real fat ish right there. That's some real fat ish. Yep. 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. 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, 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 it sounds 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 i love food so much. 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 could 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. Nothing tastes good like the big 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, if crispy cream donuts kept us alive, guess what we'd be eating this morning right now. 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 sautéed

spinach with garlic. Yum. Alright, well, this is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Michelle Johnson of Brownsville called to use our outlet. She called to get some things off her chest and this happened. Michelle,

tell them why you're at, Michelle. I'm at, I was watching TV the other day, and I seen that Barack Obama went to go to war with Siri. Siri ain't never done nothing to nobody. I like Siri. Siri? Everywhere, yes, Siri on the iPhone, Angela. I think you're talking about Syria.

No, Siri on the iPhone, the one that lets me know everything I need to know, where I need to go, all the restaurants, all the poppin' restaurants, all the poppin' clubs. No, God bless you. Barack Obama wants to go to war with Syria. Syria is a country. Syria is the future on the iPhone. When I was watching TV, he said he wanted to go to war with Syria. S-Y-R-I-A.

Syria. You gotta stop watching BET and watch more CNN, baby. What? Y'all don't know what the hell y'all talking about. We don't know. We talking about. Okay. Lord have mercy. Let us pray.

That's why I don't be talking in words after 5 p.m. Now, Siri, would you like to respond to Michelle Johnson saying Barack Obama wants to go to war with you? Michelle, you dumb. I'm Siri. Siri as a country. Oh, man. The world's most dangerous morning show. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.

You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you

feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun.

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.

You know, we're going to keep that in because this is the last Breakfast Club interview of the year, but it's also the last Breakfast Club interview in this studio. Correct. You know what I mean? And I'm actually glad that he's here. That's right. This is a great note to end on after 13 years.

That's right. Ladies and gentlemen, Drewski is joining us. Thank you. Good morning. What up, Drewski? Thank you. No pressure, Drewski, but this is the last day. Yeah, y'all don't give me the bulls**t just because I'm the last one, though.

No, no, no. Yeah, let's wrap it up. Let's wrap it up. You know why I'm glad you're here? Because you represent the now, but you also represent the future. Yes. And that's what The Breakfast Club is currently doing right now. We represent the now, but we're moving into the future.

So it's good to have you here, brother. That's perfect. How are you feeling, brother? I feel good, man. I feel blessed. I'm actually super excited I'm up here because I literally sat back and watched y'all for so long. It's like one of those moments where it's like, damn, I'm here, you know?

Yeah. You get a lot of money, Drewski. Nah, come on. You're getting a lot, Drewski. Drewski, stop by. First of all. You see how they try to just pop it off? One of your partners was a close friend of mine, Hovain.

Oh, yes. God bless his day. That's Hovain, yeah. Was he your manager? Yeah, at one point we worked together, yeah. Not towards the end of it because business is business, right? Absolutely. Yeah, yeah.

But no, he was a great guy, though. So I'm fully aware that you're getting money, Drewski. Oh, man. Goodness gracious. What makes you say that? I mean, your outfit, your chain, and plus I see you on commercials. This was a gift, though. Oh, really?

Yeah, I'm not just out here buying chains. Who gave you that? You know. We'll talk about that later. Yeah, really? Yeah, I'm not just out here buying change. Who gave you that? You know. We'll talk about that later. Yeah, nah, we'll talk. We'll talk. You know, I don't want to put it out there. But yeah, it was a gift, though.

So let's start from the beginning. How did it all get started? You went to Georgia Southern University. Yes. And you wanted to be in sports broadcasting. Yeah. And what happened? I think I just wanted to be on TV, man.

It wasn't really about doing sports broadcasting it was just like something i knew i could go to school for to like you know entertain i just i i didn't know i knew my parents wanted me to go to school so i'm like i'm gonna figure out a way to stay in school and do some cool you know so uh yeah that was like the go-to just for just to do that though but I ended up doing what I really wanted to do now, you know? How did you make that pivot? Dropping the s*** out of high school. I mean, dropping out of high school, dropping out of college.

So what year did you drop out? I think I did one year at GGC, which is like a closed school to where I'm from. Then I went to Georgia Southern, and did like a half a semester Jesus and just stopped going to classes just all all in general let's talk about that mindset like I never went to college period but so what made you realize that you know you know what college isn't the move for me um I think bro just going up those classes are so big you don't even have like a real like like connection with none of the teachers i think when i started out at the smaller school i was cool because i still knew people where i was from everybody's still cool with each other you know it felt like high school again you know that's

another year high school you get up to those big college i thought it was about to be like party you know i'm saying you watch movies like atl or drumline and stuff and you see like kind of like the college type of you know right, okay. Right, right, right. And I thought it was going to be like that, but nah, man, I went all the way out there to that party school, and I ended up hating it, bro. I didn't like it.

What made you hate it? It just wasn't, I went out there for other reasons. I went out there thinking this is like the lifestyle I could live. Like, yeah, this is the real college lifestyle. And I ended up just hitting me in the mouth with it. But you thought it was going to be like partying and women.

What you thought it was going to be? Yeah, I wanted that, man. I wanted a real college experience. Because when you go to those small colleges, you don't get that. It's just like I said, it's high school again. So I was like, OK, I'm going to step out here. I'm trying to get my deal on. But yeah, I needed that, though, because I ended up figuring out

that I wanted to be a comedian when I didn't go to class that other semester. So basically, you went to college and was like, damn, we still got to do work. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's actually worse

because the teachers don't, they don't give a crap about you. The teachers, you even got to show up. You got to do your work. Yeah, you walk in, there's a lecture, there's a thousand people sitting in here,

they don't care who you are, you walk in, man, listen, man, it ain't fair about it. Let go back to okay i was gonna say and we go back because i was gonna say let's go back before college let's go back before high school because it just don't just start you just don't start being funny like i can watch you and tell this guy is naturally funny right it's not performative you had to be the class clown and disruptor in school something um yeah i was i was always the class clown and disruptor in school something um yeah i was i was always the class clown man since i was like in elementary school uh but i didn't know that's what i wanted i actually i wanted to do that but i didn't know it was like a real

profession that could like be my career right you know so like i'm young and i used to go to second third grade and i used to ask kids be, who do you think the funniest in our class is? And they'd be like, oh, you're so funny, man. Like, you know, I thought that was, like, the cool thing. So every year, like, my goal was, like, yeah, I'm going to be sure I'm the funniest in this whole grade. Like, I want everybody to agree that I'm the funniest. So it was just something small I would put in the back of my head. But I never thought I would really end up making it a career, honestly.

I just didn't think too deep into it. But I definitely have always been a class cop, man. What'd you do back in the day that you realized, like, okay, when you think about it now, like, I went too far back then. All them ass whoopings, man. My dad was whooping my ass. Really?

Let me talk about you going too far. What did you go too far on? What did I go too far on? What, in elementary school? Yeah, like, prank-wise. So let me give you an example. But the trauma, I'd rather hear about the trauma from the ass with me. Let me give you an example.

So Charlamagne used to make fun of this kid that was mentally challenged. Oh, man. Right? And he would make fun of this kid all the time. Until one day, the kid turned around and beat Charlamagne's ass. He didn't beat my ass. He choked me. It's a difference.

He put me in a dope feed. He put me in a sleeper. You know they strong, though. What? Hey, I'm telling you. You choked me. It's a difference. He put me in a dope feed. He put me in a sleeper. You know they strong, though. What? Hey, I'm telling you. You know they strong. You have no idea. You got to see how they built.

They stature built. They always got big booties. So you should know. Hey, I'm telling you. See, that's why I never did that. They just go into the bathroom. You know when they go into the bathroom, they pull their pants all the way down.

And I could tell from stature. I'm like, okay, this dude built up. He got some strong hind legs. You know, you don't mess with them, man. I'm telling you right now. He just told them. He post you up in the paint real well. Yeah, man.

You know, I just always knew not to mess with them. I could tell. Yeah. So why'd you bring up your daddy beating you? Oh, man. You know, that was just some. Where you from, first of all? And why he try to make it seem like it was like the worst thing. I think everybody got whoopings. Yeah, everybody got whoop Oh, man. You know, that was just some... Where you from, first of all? And why he tried to make it seem like it was, like, the worst thing?

I think everybody got whoopings. Yeah, everybody got whoopings, man. But you just volunteered the information. Nah, I mean, that's really how I knew. Like, I was really wildin' out when I was in elementary and middle school. Gotcha. Gotcha. Yeah. Go ahead. Say what you was gonna say. No, that's it. I will say this. I will say this.

The reason I say you probably wasn't wildin' out like you Thought you was Our parents man The way they I don't know what year You was born But I was born in 1978 The way we was raised

Them ass cuttings We used to get Yeah That was them Projecting their trauma On us sometimes Yeah I ain't deserve

To get beat with No extension cord I think you might have But extension cord Yeah He might have deserved it My dad was old school like that too though he he he used all types he tried to light his house on fire like

that's not what happened i was the reason i was in my room just playing with a lighter i wasn't trying to light nothing on fire i was playing with the lighter that's like nothing like i was like i would light the carpet put it out like the carpet that's not trying to set the house like you ever said you know what let me try to light my carpet yeah no but i did stupid stuff too like that like i was i was big on the stupid stuff like putting um i put a paper clip in a uh outlet and it like blew up on me and in my face for real for real and yeah i did a little stupid how long you been suicidal no i was not what oh why did you try to kill yourself? Yeah, this dude thinks I'm Trump-tized. Nah, man.

Why did you try to kill yourself? Nah. Why would you do that? It's just curious things, man. You know, when people used to tell me, yo, don't do that, I'm like, I need to figure out the reason. Why is everybody tripping if you put something in the outlet? Like, yo, I see plugs going there all the time. I got to see what's the reason behind that.

So just stupidity. Yeah. All right. We got more with Drewski. When we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. You know, a career.

So what was like your first breakout moment online, you think? Man, I was doing so much during the pandemic. The pandemic was a great time for me because everybody was like tuned in to anything online, anything. So I took over like the whole pandemic i was doing skits about these white boys i went to college with uh kyle roger where i would do this frat boy um character that i would always mess around doing i did a lot of other stuff like that people could relate to and find it's funny you know uh yeah we took over uh during pandemic that was that was a good time for me not healthy and what was your first big break like the first time people seeing you because

after the pandemic everything went off you did commercials you were doing tours you were doing everything so what was your tour now the coulda woulda shoulda yeah man coulda woulda shoulda tour brother go get y'all tickets uh i think the first big opportunity i was handed was um drake's laugh not cry later video that was a really really big moment he reached out to you I think the first big opportunity I was handed was Drake's Laugh Now, Cry Later video. That was a really, really big moment for me. He reached out to you? Yeah, yeah, he did. The DM?

Yeah, it was really early on, too, man. But I knew he was watching because, you know, he would laugh at certain stuff in the videos and stuff. And I was like, okay, that's crazy. And he reached out, asked for my number, and then we had a couple conversations next thing you know he was like yo i need you to um come to oregon at the nike headquarters and we're gonna shoot this video i got this concept and just i was just like hey i i didn't even i was speechless i didn't even know what to say you know did you think it was really him when he hit you or did you think it was somebody i knew it was him i knew it was him because you know i he's one of those people that like tapped in he don't really let a whole bunch of people run his stuff.

I knew it was him. How much does one charge for that? Because you were young in the game. Yeah, yeah. You probably just want the opportunity, so you're probably not even thinking about the money. Great calls is free. Yeah, no, no, no. I think it was off the love, but also, no, they threw me something.

It was a good check. The reason I brought that up is because a lot of times people don't recognize opportunity unless there's a paycheck attached to it to me that would just have been a great opportunity that i would have took yeah but see i sacrificed a lot of other stuff during that time like i would go and do a whole bunch of stuff for free that i knew was a great opportunity like um before jack blew up jack harlow blew up i went on tour with him for free okay and literally because he was just like yo i i can bring you on you can host before i go up on stage which was like small shows at the time he was like we only got one slot on the bus so you can't bring

none of your friends i have no money i don't have a budget to give you to come out it's like honestly this could just help you just get experience on stage. And I was like, all right, bet. Dope. And I was like broke. I couldn't even pay my rent at the time. And I was like, I'm going. Like, it don't matter. He was like, I can pay for your meals, you know, and we'll just figure it out.

And that was one of those moments as well that was just like sacrifices, you know, just. How long was y'all on tour? Almost two months, I think. Whoa. So this is great. You on tour for two months. He's paying for your food, I'm sure, with hotels. Nope, we were staying on that bus.

Yeah, we doing truck stops. We was stopping at truck stops in the morning. Wow. Yeah, man. See, I took showers and washed up at truck stops. Yeah, like we even, if they did get a hotel, it would be like one hotel room. Everybody's about to go in here. You go shower. You come out. You go's about to go in here. You go shower.

You come out. You go shower. You go come out. You go shower. You come out. And everybody get right back on the bus. It never was like hotel rooms for everybody. So Jack wasn't even Jack yet?

Yeah, not yet. But he, you know. Man, there's nothing better than that, man. Yeah, man. And now y'all both have come up together. You know what I'm saying? He blow up to be a big star. Now he give you even better looks.

Yeah, man. You went to his house Thanksgiving? Yeah. I see y'all did y looks. Yeah, man. You went to his house Thanksgiving? Yeah. I see y'all did y'all research, huh? How was that? When you said the food was terrible, I understand. Yeah, nah. I can't even trash it, man, because I don't know who cooked it.

You know, I thought it was his mom. I can't trash it for that because I love that lady. But somebody was cooking that stuff and i don't know who it was it was somebody white i'm sure yeah yeah his whole family yeah so when you were when you're reminded in that moment like oh man jack's cool as hell he's really white yeah yeah i think i think they were singing kumbayas for um yeah for for thanksgiving they be singing like songs and stuff yeah yeah they're big on that you know they print out these sheets kind of like y'all got and they pass them around to the kids the moms on they singing white spiritual so what did you do what I was

singing you were singing I was just staring there but I think I was recording I was like yo is this this some type of like I don't know I didn't know if it was a ritual or something you know did you act like the food was good while you was there um i definitely i definitely put on a little bit yep i definitely misled them i definitely misled them later on yeah i feel bad that's why i was saying i feel bad i don't know who's cooking the stuff but somebody don't know what they're doing damn it was that bad yeah you know they like to put breadcrumbs and everything yeah yeah it just you top it off with breadcrumbs.

It'd be like green beans, top it with breadcrumbs. Macaroni, top it with breadcrumbs. Why? Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Raisins in a potato salad? Pointless stuff, man. Yeah.

And Jack was acting like it slapped. Oh, yeah. You know, that's just spam, though, man. They cool. They cool. I'll tell you that, though. They cool. They might not be able to cook.

They cool, though. So what'd you do? Say, hey, man, Jack, take me to to kfc or something man i was in there singing them kumbayas man you crazy i didn't say none of that and did you spend the night at his house uh i think around that time we were on tour so okay yeah yeah we we i think we might have got back on the bus after that gotcha so what does this could or what it should have told look like oh man this is about to be amazing this is a great great tour. You're going to get me. You're going to get some of Coulda Been Records, you know.

Who's on Coulda Been Records? Oh, man, we ain't signed nobody yet, but we looking. Oh, you looking. We always looking, you know. And I always say this. It's not about talent. Some people just got the look, right? And it's always, I feel like sometimes people just have what it takes to be in my presence, you know.

Okay. So, yeah. With that being said, you know. You think y'all ever drop music? Yeah. We ain't to that point, man. I'm still disciplining some of the artists that we look and assign. I'm still disciplining.

You tried to sign NBA, right? Yeah, I tried to sign him, man. He's an interesting cat. Why you say that? Just, you know, bipolar. Yeah. I try to get on and he's he's an interesting cat. Why is it a just you know bipolar Yeah, try to try to try to try to get on the same page when I never can though Well, so you try to sign it didn't hmm. I think I tried to get Kodak. I remember Kodak Yeah, I tried to get Kodak. He didn't like that. I presented the opportunity even the way I did I'd present it

I just told him I said yo we passed on your opportunity but we look we still look at his no yeah and also see you a love interest in it in a video and my cousins video which one my cousin Chloe Bailey oh yeah don't matter yeah that's my cousin my girl yeah Chloe Bailey that's crazy yeah I do a lot of IG lives together yeah yeah yeah yeah really yes you know that's just a rumor we did a movie and you know people just everybody talks and stuff yeah I'm the love interest in the movie that we're doing yeah what's the movie I hear but this. It's actually going to be a very funny movie. It's a... You have a love scene? Like love making? I was like, what's a love scene?

I don't know. Nah, it's a church movie, man. It's a family movie. It's a family movie. It ain't talking about love making. I wouldn't be against it. But I'll tell you what. She's a very beautiful individual.

She's very hardworking. And yeah, that movie's got to be amazing. All right, we got more with Drewski when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I guess the OG comics, because there was this thing one time where OG comics would be like, oh, people from the internet aren't real comics.

Yeah. Why do you think I bring this tea up here, though? To look like. Because, yeah, to look like I know what I'm talking about i've seen the ogs coming up here doing that i've seen like kevin harding them you know i've seen them bring tea so i'm like all right let me let me let me make a statement yeah let me bring a hot cocoa up here you know that's true that's true that is true and you know that's one of my you know that's one of my things i knew i was gonna do when I came up here.

Drink tea. Yeah, I was going to bring something just to look like I'm noble. Just to look. Now, when you go to the room with Drama and Wiz Khalifa and all those, how is doing that? Because you're a comedian amongst all these artists. Is that difficult? Because they want to see people perform. You're saying like when we're just chilling, hanging out? No, when you're on tour, when you're working.

Oh, when I'm on tour. Nah, that's not hard, man. You know, those are the ones that show love the most. Yeah, I like when people come out and come to shows and stuff. That's nice. But you never answered the question about do you feel, you know, you got to get these OGs respect as a comedian. Yeah, I think that always happens man and

uh you i think you just gotta you gotta go through the hard work the first thing kevin hart told me when i i went to his show and i'm backstage and i was like i was just watching him you know everybody congratulating like oh my god it's a great show oh my god and i was just looking at him from across the room because he they invited me to the green room and i'm just like all right when's my moment to say what's up you know like I was kind of nervous you know and um I'm expecting just to be like yo you did you had a great show dude breezes past me and he looks at me he said stop being a bitch I was like what the hell is he talking about man and I had my like I had my like hand extended out like for hey what's up man I

thought he was gonna be like hey you killing this man he walked past me again he said i'm telling you stop being a bitch and i'm like what the so i'm asking his boys i'm like yo what is yo what is kevin talking about for real and he and he walked up to me you don't know and he yeah he said get on that stage he said stop acting like you're too good to do stand-up he was like you're doing all the little hoes in the tours he said but you you ain't doing what you're supposed to be doing. He said, see, y'all scared, man. He said, these new cats, y'all scared. Y'all think y'all got all the fame. Y'all think y'all the shit.

He said, stop being a bitch. I'm like, man. And that hit my soul, man. I started going to these open mics and working on my set, you know. And, yeah, you got to fail before you get out of here. We always ask, do you remember your best show and your worst show? Mm-hmm. What was the worst show?

Let's start with worst. I had a really, really terrible, terrible experience more recently. I tried to say a joke. What city? This was in Atlanta. I was just going on the open mic. And yeah, it just fell very flat. What was the joke about?

I'm trying to remember i think i told a story traumatizing you had to forget yeah yeah that i just wanted to erase that from my mind i can't think of the joke i said but it was something about like my past yeah it fell flat though like i think somebody somebody clapped like in an agreement with me and i knew i said okay that wasn't what i wanted i'm not i wanted. I'm not up here preaching man. Somebody started you know they're like oh okay and I'm like hey man expecting a laugh here. So what do you do from there? So now you're Drewski. Now this is recent so this is Drewski Drewski. Millions of followers. You're on tour. You go on stage. They cheering because they're

excited to see you. I said it straight. I tell them as soon as I get out there I say hey man I'm working on stuff. Y'all don't expect nothing because they you know to see you. I said it straight. I tell them as soon as I get out there, I say, hey, man, I'm working on stuff. Y'all don't expect nothing because people try to stand up and do it. They're standing ovation. But when you're working on your set for a big show that's coming up, you got to say, hey, I just walked out there.

I say, hey, y'all know. Hey, I am Drewski, yes, but I'm working on stuff. Don't expect no big, my best jokes right now. But that's how you get better, though. That's the best way to do it. How'd you walk off stage after they did that? Did you just end right there? I think I tried to say something else.

And, yeah, I thought, I said, that's my time. You know, just try to say, you try to do something and just, yeah, that's my time, y'all. Thank y'all. I want to go back to what you said about Kevin. We're talking about the best show. We're talking about the worst show. Oh. Why?

We're talking about positive stuff. So what was the best show? Do you remember your best show we talked about the worst show oh what was the best do you remember your best show you had um i think my best show uh i did i did a piece that could have been when i was on the little baby and chris brown tour and uh i had this dude come out who was previously on my instagram live and he came out and danced and like the crowd it was hilarious like i was just reacting to everything he did and it was that was a really good show you wasn't telling no jokes it was a whole bunch it was yeah it was it was it was like improv you know it was like

i was just out there just wilding out like i was with the crowd and you know all that sorry for cussing no go ahead but to that point i knew exactly when you when kevin said stop being a bitch i knew exactly what he was saying to you because that's what all OGs do. But do you have to hit the stage? That might not be your thing. Yeah, I mean, but he's saying stop being a bitch as in like go out there and try it before you act like you're too good to be doing or don't be out here acting like you, you know, don't be acting like you the shit. And you ain't even tried something that, you you know don't be acting like you the shit and you ain't even tried something that

you know could be potentially huge for you so he's not necessarily saying I have to be a stand up comedian he's just saying like yo

go try it out what are you scared cause on the flip side there's stand up comedians that can't do what you do online they can't do

On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives. It was like a slow nightmare, you know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night, I would dream that my face was quote-unquote normal or back to the way it was, and I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture,

that they're something that looks like risky and idiotic to us. It's maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you social failure. Listen to A Slight Change of Plans on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. can take it if he feel i deserve it ain't no big deal i know charlamagne and god gonna have some funny sweet say out his mouth because i say something you may not agree with doesn't mean i mean who's getting that donkey that donkey that donkey donkey donkey donkey donkey of the day right there the breakfast club bitches you can call me the donkey of the day but like i mean no harm yes donkey of the day for tuesday april 12th goes to julianne budge julianne budge

is a 47 year old woman from utah who was arrested in a hit-and-run accident. Sadly, the two people that she hit have transitioned. Two men whose names have not been released, two brothers, died at St. George Regional Hospital after witnesses attempted life-saving measures at the scene, sending healing energy to the families of those individuals. And may God be pleased with their souls. Situ situations like this will never sit right with me because i hate when people lose their life because of the carelessness

and recklessness of others okay i don't know when we will realize that the number one thing that keeps us safe out here on this planet is human behavior that's it we are all relying on each other to stay safe. And when you do things like decide to drive under the influence, it is one of the most selfish decisions you can make because you not care about your life so much that you decide to get behind the wheel of a car knowing you got no business driving. That is, that is not just the blatant disregard for the life God gave you.

It's a blatant disregard for the life of everybody else who is on the highway with you. Okay. Imagine being the person who's not under the influence, got this seatbelt on license, registration, insurance, all of the date, you driving the way you supposed to doing everything you supposed to be doing. And you get in the accident. Okay. Hit by some donkey who decided they just had to drink or get high before they got behind the wheel. That is what happened in this situation, except it was two bicyclists okay but i'm sure they had their helmets on they were in the bike lane i guarantee they were doing what they needed to do to keep the ecosystem safe and here comes the rupture that is julie okay now julie told authorities that she had been admitted to a hospital the previous day and had been taking fentanyl through an iv drip

she also failed a field sobriety test after the accident and that's when police decided to lock julie's ass up for suspicion of driving under the influence so let's be clear julie arrested in a hit and run accident while under the influence that killed two people that's the real story that's what happened we could rap donkey of the day right here okay that's it nothing more nothing less when i tell you some donkey of the days just sell themselves trust me when i tell you this hee-haw is selling but that ain't the only reason julie is getting the credit she deserves for being stupid this morning okay see when julie first got caught that's not what she told police okay of course she did not at first she didn't say hey i'm under the influence that's why i ended up

hitting and running and killing two bicyclists. Nope, nope, nope. She had another excuse. And when I tell you she pulled this one out of her ass, I mean, it literally, according to her, came out of her ass. See, Julie told police that the crash happened when she began defecating on herself uncontrollably due to a medical condition i'm not making this up i'm looking at the headline in the ny post the headline reads utah woman blames fatal hit and run on uncontrollable defecation where i'm from we call that diarrhea okay good old butt mud poo goo poo water that analavored yoo-hoo. Let's go to Fox 13 Salt Lake City for the report, please. An update tonight from southern Utah.

We're learning more about the person police say hit and killed two brothers in Washington City this weekend. Investigators say the two men were among dozens of cyclists who were in the bike lane participating in the spring tour of St. George. They were hit around two yesterday afternoon on Telegraph Street in Washington City. 47-year-old Julie Ann Budge of Hurricane told police she had a medical issue. Mmm. Mmm. see julie told police the crash happened when she began defecating uncontrollably due to a medical condition okay jesus all right julie told police that she had various medical issues including irritable bowel syndrome and that condition made her defecate on herself without warning which caused her to swerve into the men she also admitted she hit the cyclist but

she presented yet another excuse when she said she couldn't get her vehicle to stop. Now, I done read a bunch of articles about this situation, listened to a bunch of different news reports. If you are going to blame this shh and run, okay? Man, I wish I could crush right now, because according to Julie, it wasn't just a hit and run, it was a shh and run.

Okay, sugar, honey, iced tea. If you're going to blame this accident on your anus having a dishonorable discharge, okay, if there is a sudden muddy playing condition going on in your drawers, then I have one question. Where is the doo-doo? Okay, I didn't see one police report that said, we found biscuits and brown gravy anywhere on you.

Okay, I have sharted on myself before. You've sharted on yourself before, right, Envy? I have. Yes, okay. Happened to me in Columbia, South Carolina, the 803. Drop on the clues box for the Metro. Happened to me right up here. Oh, yeah, that's when you threw your drawers in the trash can.

Yep. Yeah, yeah, I remember that. That's when they really thought some wild stuff was going on in this building. Okay, all right. Just like the record show, it happened to me years ago when I was leaving a Jamaican spot. And, you know, when your stomach gets to bubbling and you can feel that anal eruption starting to happen, when that hits your pants, it startles you. But it doesn't make you drive off the road.

Okay, when you're riding in a Chevy and you're feeling something heavy, all right, you know what it is. It's diarrhea. And guess what? When I turn my underwear into a fudge fountain, I've never driven so perfect so perfect in my life okay i don't want to swerve and look like i'm out of control when i had some jinko jeans full of chocolate coleslaw so julie budgers what did you expect to believe this okay and i go back to my original point if you tell me that doodoo is the cause of your accident as a police officer i want to see the doodoo that is evidence all right now julie bridges is being charged with let me look it up two counts of automobile

homicide due to criminal negligence two felony counts of failure to remain at an accident involving death two counts of dui with serious bodily injury by negligent operation and one alleged count of it being an in run. She was also slapped with a misdemeanor charge of reckless driving and an infraction for improper plane travel. The moral of the story is, can we all start looking out for each other better? Please, please give Julie Budges the biggest. You know, two people dead just because of the negligence of one person. Human behavior, us collectively, are the only reason we're keeping each other safe.

We have to make a conscious effort every day to do the right thing so we don't end up hurting somebody else. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angelique. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Man, very requested guest. Highly requested guest. Really?

Yes. Wow. Tony Baker is here. Wow. What's happening, my brother? Man, for the first time this is debut I love y'all by the way

nah man I wanna interview y'all like I wanna ask y'all the questions so tell me how'd y'all get in radio yeah listen

Ada Rodriguez I know she absolutely loves you she always talks about you so she hit me too she was like are you gonna have

Tony Baker on the show I'm like it's already taken care of yes that is my dog right there for sure 100 now i had everybody hitting me from sean king to the comedians like isaiah kelly i'm like everybody on instagram yeah because it was like man i want to be on the breakfast club i always want to be on i was like i'm doing carolines this weekend that's right. Let me just, you know, put it out there in the universe. You didn't need our help

for that though because you sold that out quick. Man, yeah, it sold out. New York pulled up because New York always in the comments section. When you coming to New York, son? When you,

where this boy's son? When you coming? I was like, all right, if I come out there, buy the tickets early and they did. Nah, I saw, I saw a bit you did when you

returned the stage meg i know condolences on your son oh thank you no but i was very intrigued because i was like how does a comedian approach something right you know like this so how have you been holding up first of all this has been first like the scariest i've ever been comedically like uh normally like i'm the type of comedian that I talk about whatever's going on in my life now I talk about like on the surface stuff like you know observations and stuff like that but then you know I always include what I'm going through in my life and so with that it was like you know comedy my son passed August 3rd in a car accident for those who don't know and then uh i went on the road august 25th to atlanta so i was like uh and i needed to come i needed to you know keep working and making people laugh as part of my you know therapy and so i was like uh but i'm scared to do it because people saw me

lose my son in real time so it's not like you know you just see me and like man he lost his son but we didn't know him then so we can kind of detach from that reality so now i'm scared to bring that material out because the crowd is hurting too so they're mourning with me so it's just like man so i finally did it on keep your distance which is a virtual comedy show that kevin on stage does and it And it went well. I told the audience, look, man, I need to talk about this, so y'all need to open up. And then they received it.

I saw some of the things that you said. Yeah, about the cremation. Like, you know, how do I know it's really him or her? I want to know. I need to check this dust right here. And I thought it was funny, but I was like, am I supposed to laugh? Yes. That's the weird part. There's comedy

everywhere. You just got to be able to find the sweet spot, I guess, to be able to make it relative and funny. That's what Marlon Wayans said when he was up here. He was like, when you're a comedian, even a funeral, you can find some type of... Oh, absolutely. And he said that exact same thing. Yeah. So it's like's like you know because i'm sitting there and i'm laughing you know i was able

to laugh like you know the day he passed i'm laughing you know crying you know i still cry daily but it's like i laugh at stuff every day too so it's like i'm like man i never thought you know you never you never know how you're gonna react to stuff until it happens yeah I mean I'm I'm from the country I'm from so we laugh at everything but I feel

like sometimes with comedians it's like an obligation to be funny but what if I don't feel like being funny right now right yeah yeah there's those

moments where it was just like I guess it was just in me and I found that out going through that I was just like man I'm still cracking jokes yeah yeah yeah I can't believe this like at the funeral I found that out going through that. I was just like, man, I'm still cracking jokes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I can't believe this. Like, at the funeral, I'm doing a set. You know, I did 15 minutes at the funeral. I was just like, yeah, man, crying. And then I would be like, yeah, he was always late. So I'm sure he was late to the afterlife, too. Like, God was like, man, yo, I called you 20 minutes ago. What took you so long?

I had to put lotion on. Yeah. You don't get ashy here. You never know. You gotta look good. That's why you said the crowd gets tight, right? So when crowds get uncomfortable, as a comedian, you're used to loosening them up, right?

Yeah. So going up there, I'll cuss a crowd out. That's the kind of comedian I am. If the crowd is too stiff, I'll cuss them out. Like, you know, if, cause like there's certain rules

where they be like, prove it to us. And they just sit there arms folded and then, I saw somebody bring her boyfriend to a comedy show and he was sitting there like mad the whole time.

Right in the front too. You can't be in the front with that energy. Take that to the back. They ripped him. Yeah, you should be. If you're going to be in the front, we need the energy.

Fake it. But if you're going to be arms folded, McGee, sit in the back. They ripped him. Yeah, you should be. If you're going to be in the front, we need the energy. Fake it. But if you're going to be arms folded McGee, sit in the back. Sit your ass in the back. With that energy, you'd be like, look out, man.

But with this type of topic, and it's not like I was forcing myself to find the material because some comedians do too much and they feel like I have to make everything funny out of everything.

For me me it was just organic it was just like you know i'll be looking at my son's urn it's right in the living room so i'm sitting there i'm like how do i know that's him in there they could have handed me any type of your son that's true though yeah so i was like yo can i take this on maury to make sure this is my son in here you know know what I'm saying? The DNA. You know what's so crazy about that? When I heard you say it, I think I would have to watch. I know it's as cruel as it sounds, only because they be harvesting organs and stuff.

Right. You know what I'm saying? So I want to make sure y'all. Oh, you want to watch the process when they go in the oven. Yeah. I want to make sure everything is gone. Is that what you want to be cremated also? Oh, definitely. Throw me in that oven.

375. Nice slow roast. I want to be cremated also? Oh, definitely. Throw me in that oven. 375. Man, shut up, man. Nice slow roast. I want to be slow roasted. Put some seasons in there, too, if you want to be slow roasted. I don't know if 375 is hot enough. No, I don't think. But that's big.

Y'all want it to last like a week. You be like, slow roast me if they can. You know what I mean? So, y'all want to be cremated? I haven't thought about it, man. Yeah, I don't think so. I don't know. You want to be buried?

Why do you want to be cremated? Because we running out of real estate. That is true. So, you don't think so i don't know you want to be married why do you want to be cremated because we're running out of real estate that is true so you don't want to it's overcrowded it's like you especially new york we drove through queens it's all cemetery that's very thoughtful of you so just because of overcrowding yeah like because you know well they got to dig up the old bodies the people that died in 1869 you got got to get out of there. Yeah. Ain't nobody coming to visit you no more. You died in 1869. Oh, my gosh. Your family moved.

But that is true. I guess it's more inexpensive, too, as far as having to buy a plot of land and having to get a casket, because caskets are expensive, too. Yeah. And you're dead. And then the outfit. You're gone. You're gone.

You're the outfit. What you care? That's right. You know what I'm saying? Just throw me in there. Yeah, because you have to have on something nice. Yep. And then, you know, you got to get the makeup. That's a waste of a an outfit. What you care? That's right. Just throw me in there. Yeah, because you have to have on something nice. That's a waste of a good outfit. Waste of a good outfit.

You're wasting a good suit. That's real. And then you're sitting there in one location. What if you don't like the location no more? Your family done moved to different states. I'm like, scatter me around. Put me in a garden of a nice house and just Sprinkle me right there. He would love this house sprinkle me

What you doing out there you just run off Don't bury me I'm not dead. Oh, yeah buried alive. Yes, so what if like you still alive You could have woke up then. But y'all better start thinking about this, man. It's coming. I know. We were talking about it. I saw you post the funeral where he was in the club.

Yeah, he was standing on stage. And I'm like, yo, that's how I want my funeral, though. See? We were talking about this the other day. I want to party. You want us to have your ashes in the club? No, no, no. I want to keep my body for the actual game night.

Listen to Haunting on the iHeartRadio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcast good morning yeah all right so look you guys just talked about Gerard Carmichael did you watch his special yes I loved it yeah like I didn't I didn't laugh a lot but I loved it it was like a community gathering where he's interacting with the audience. It felt like he wasn't forcing the jokes. He wasn't forcing the comedy. It was like, you can laugh or you can not.

When he came out, I feel like the laughter revved up after that. So there was some good things in there. But it felt very personal. It felt like a conversation. And, you know, there was a moment in there that hit me personally personal felt like a conversation and you know there was a moment in there that hit me personally when he said his mom was silent right so that hit give me space here like i need y'all around it's like yeah we hear you but uh we're gonna give you space anyway you know why man that's so it's so difficult when you have a loved one and they lose somebody

really close to them because you don't know how to show up for them yeah you know i'm saying you let them know i'm here for you if you need me yeah but i don't know how to show up for you it's weird man it's strange and that and that's and that's why i told him i was like you you don't have to when people are grieving i think we overthink it a lot and we'd be like man i gotta come in there and i gotta i gotta hit him with some hard hitting i gotta come in and say you know god puts things in in place to where we you don't have to do all that like for me I hate talking on the phone like notoriously don't call me and so all I need is a text like thinking to you love you bro there's my boy Demetrius he texts me every single day

love you bro and that's all I need. Why do you hate talking on the phone? I hate talking on the phone. But why? Former drug dealer? PTSD? No, because you got to show up, first of all. On the phone? On the phone, you got to be there.

You got to have energy. You got to have the back and forth. A lot of people just want to call you and talk to you and vent. And you just sitting there taking it. And I wasn't ready to take it. So now I'm like, yeah, that's crazy. That's crazy. Now I'm that crazy to death.

And then it's like, you got to be on. Then when you get quiet, it's like, man, you good? Why are you quiet? This is all I got. So all of that, I got to prep for it. So it's like man What you want so you seem like you would get phone talker from watching like your podcast and stuff Yeah, it feels like you would be like a good phone conversation right? I mean I could I can I can hang in there

I can hold my own But if I don't feel like talking I just be like that's crazy, Angela. Yep. That's crazy, man. Sometimes you just got to hang in there, you know what I'm saying? Take it one day at a time. You got people that take advantage of that? You got people that take advantage of that? Like, they know what time to call you? Like, let me call him, like, around 9, 30 a.m. He just getting up.

This is what I know people do. They'll text me, and then I'll text back, and they'll call me right after that. So they know. They know. You're paying, and you have your phone. Exactly. They know you can answer right now. And I still watch it die.

I will watch that phone call die off in my hand. I'll be like. Or if you post something on social media and then they call you right after, they're like, I know he's on his phone. He just posted. He just posted this. And I see it too.

I'm like, I just posted. Now they call me. I will watch that phone call die off. Do you ever not post because you don't want anybody to call you yes i've done that so you don't like the phone either uh i talk on the phone you know when i talk on the phone for real when i'm in the car mostly oh yeah like if i'm driving and i got the bluetooth it's easier for me like while i'm just driving because i got to be here anyway there's nothing else i could really be doing at the same time. You can multitask.

Yeah. Especially when you got the good, when you talking to them, like, it's like they're in the ceiling of the car. You're just like, yes, I told her,

right? And sometimes you got to, you know, take it one day at a time. I can do it then, but if I'm at home, nah, man,

text. Tony Baker, thank you for coming, my brother. Yes, you got to come back again. Oh, if y'all don't promise me a good time.

Done. That's done. Because I got y'all DMs now. Follow us now. Oh, man, it's over for y'all, man. It's Tony Baker. It's The Breakfast Club. Yes.

The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Any first responder will tell you, never try to beat a train. After breaking, it can take a mile for a train to completely stop. So when you come to a rail crossing, stop. Because trains can't. Paid for by NHTSA. My thing.

You'll do it so much just to feel like, you know, your nerve bad, you'll say you need to smoke. But also the nicotine and tobacco, you become addictive to it. So you pretty much could have that element of smoking to feel like you calm your nerves down without having the elements of the nicotine and tobacco being addictive to it. Actually have things like miracle bearers inside of it, which is good for like in West Africa, it's very, very popular to help regulate your bodily functions

and help keep your blood level. So it's pretty much a healthier alternative. Yeah, because a lot of people smoke hookah, not necessarily because they enjoy hookah, but like sometimes you don't want to drink too much because you got to drive home, right? And when you go to a club and you don't necessarily drink, there's nothing to do, right?

You can't, you're dead, you're hanging with your homies, but also you want something to do. So a lot of people smoke hookah because of that. So now, how did you get the idea to create this hookah pen? I love to smoke hookah, but I don't smoke cigarettes and don't smoke marijuana or nothing like that. And it was to the point where I complain about people smoking cigarettes, but not realizing smoking hookah. I was smoking like a pack of cigarettes. So I was like, what is a way for me to still do what I love? That's like that's a hobby of mine i just love to smoke hookah but kind of like not feel guilty about it putting things in

my body that i typically wouldn't you know prefer to put in my body so i knew it was a way to create uh the element of smoking hookah without using nicotine and tobacco and to use the fruit because if you really think about it you go to these hookah places you could kind of get shisha put into a fruit head and the fruit head doesn't burn. You still smoke out. And so I knew that was the way to incorporate both of them and make it make sense. I know nobody never done it before. So I knew it was a way.

It wasn't easy, but I knew it was a way to do it. So that was, you know, the whole motive to me creating the element. Now, I know I know as black people, we're creative, right? Right. But how did you create a hookah pen like i mean you didn't do this in your basement you didn't say i'm gonna create these these parts and do it with just fruit so how did you create this so it was literally it is no different than if somebody create a vape pen right so the hookah pen itself actually the hookah pen

that's not a word i created that word right because you need to have a vape pen or you have a hookah but i knew i was bringing the market something new that they didn't experience so i didn't want to literally call what i was creating my different uh uh formula uh a vape pen because then what's gonna make me stand out from everything else so you literally had to i feel like yeah it started with the name first if i if i'm telling you a different name you're gonna look at it and so what's different about this and that's when i feel like i have to floor to be informative and let you know like this is not your typical hookah this is not your typical hookah pen this is not your typical vape pen so literally me creating with the fruit i literally had to get different supplies to get us let's not talk about the supplies i had to go between 13 to 17 supplies everybody was

telling me uh i don't think that's sound right you say fruit inside of hookah oh we can't do that but you got this other alternative which was everything that everybody else was doing but i was persistent so that's why i tell people like if you believe in something like you literally gotta go for it and if it's your vision is your vision not everybody going to see it but like at the end of the day if you you know you keep fighting for what you truly believe in look at me you know i'm saying so how did they get fruit into a pen that you could smoke? So what are you smoking? Because you're not smoking an apple. You're not smoking a pineapple.

Correct. You're literally smoking fruit juice. Like if you're smoking a hookah pen of pineapple, somewhere else you'll be smoking a pineapple pen with literally nicotine, tobacco, all kinds of chemicals. I literally recollected my hookah literally made out of fruit juice made up of Miracle Berry. Miracle Berry is the most popular fruit that's known that you can like literally alternate flavors, taste and everything like that and literally manipulate it to taste exactly the way you want it to be.

I kind of I'm kind of giving somebody my phone. You're giving too much, man. You're giving too much. You're giving too much. So I You're giving too much. You're giving too much. Y'all can't do it. It's patent. All right, well, it's patent. So when did you know it was going to be a success?

When was the first time where you started seeing, taking off and be like, oh, this really works? The fact that when I literally know how much I love hookah and I was enjoying my own product, but why I was sold out at first, the reason why I was sold out the most because I was taking too much of the supply. It was really, really good. Like I really enjoy it.

So it's the fact that it's no nicotine, no tobacco and is a healthy alternative, but literally tastes better than everything else. Like I literally could stand behind a product and say I'm going to smoke a thousand different hookahs, a thousand different flavors. My flavor literally is like one in a billion is you can't find nothing like it where did you come up with the mind sense to create a business right because you said you patented it and you did the right steps before somebody was able to take it where did you come up with that mind sense to do that so that's what's crazy that's that's part of part of my journey right uh i always use my personality and my likeliness on social media to the best of my my ability and before i created my own business i was known on instagram to be the deemed the promo king so everybody who had a

business rather the biggest or the smallest even as far as we tv used to reach out to me have me doing promo contracts talking about shows and stuff like that so i used to get all these stories from everybody like like i had i used to be booked for almost a year with promo slots and people used to be literally going crazy over my promo saying like i made them the most money that they has ever made in a day in a week whatever on their business so once i was getting older and realizing understanding that if i'm making all these people money despite me making a good living off of this I could really do this and use my influence and make this money for myself so that's kind of what you know it regulated in my head that that's the spite been on the back

and I really wanted to be the entrepreneur and the CEO myself you know now are you concerned with tobacco companies saying you gonna start taking business from them and usually when that starts happen that's when they try to start trying to take out the little man because you're taking to start taking business from them. And usually when that starts happening, that's when they try to start trying to take out the little man, because you're taking so much of a profit share from there already profit that they'd be in tax crazy. So this is the thing, you know,

uh, I'm really not worried about the tobacco industry. And then as far as like, you know, them trying to take out the little man, I'm not the sound cocky, but not a little man is the big man. So,

you know, good luck with that. Now, also we talk about financial wealth and now it was rumored that black friday alone you make 2.7 million dollars uh-huh is that true yeah absolutely true really yeah absolutely true uh look it's crazy like it's so many things that i would couldn't ever even fathom to believe. And LeGlaria's saying something over there about the $2.7 million. Because let me tell you this, about the $2.7 million,

that's what I felt comfortable with sharing. You know, it kind of went a little farther, but that was my cap. You know what I'm saying? But, yeah, God is good, man. Like, I truly appreciate, you know, the community from supporting me and rocking with me actually loving the product so like yeah i'm very happy about it for people that want to purchase this or want to try it out how can they do so and how long does that pen last so that's

the thing about as far as the pen you literally determine how long it lasts it's a disposable pen with 2022 puffs so you can literally sit down and smoke 2,022 puffs in one day if you want if you just don't stop. You can smoke it in three days. Some people pen last a couple months. Some people pen last

for one month. So you literally determine your puffs. Like if you sit your pen there for a year and don't smoke all the puffs, your pen will still be there

all year. You know what I'm saying? Now, Brittany Griner just got released. Shout out to Brittany Griner a couple of days ago. So my question to you is if I travel with this

out the country, is there anything in this pen that's going to get me arrested, locked up, sent me to jail, anything? Shout out to Britton Griner. Absolutely not. And that's why, Britton Griner, I'm going to let you know right now, you need to get you some black smoke, baby. You can travel in and out the country.

You can go through the airport. You can take it in your carry-on bag. It's all good. So, yeah, black smoke, no nicotine, no tobacco. there's absolutely nothing in there will get you in trouble no thc no nothing like that it's just all a healthy smoke baby so for people who want to get it how can they get it how can they purchase it how can they put it in their store or individually if they just want to buy it and will they be able to have it by christmas so you definitely will be able to have it by christmas i'll ship it don't play but uh

it's only available online blacksmoke.com the thing about a lot of people like i type in the website and i i can't pull it up the reason why black is spelled b-l-a-k-k there's no c in it so it's b-l-a-k-k smoke.com with your blood you don't take out the you take out the crib or something no you know i'm saying like i'm just messing with you so for people that order it now and how much is it if they want to order can they order it singular do they order boxes how does it work so i will always suggest you to order the hookah pin bundle the the bundle is 299 and you literally get all flavors all 10 flavors individually 299 what you mean 299 for the whole 299 no no 299 for the whole bundle get all 10 flavors, which is a great deal because individually they're $39.99.

So you save over $100 by getting the bundle. But then when people don't get the bundle, because I understand people want to try it out for the first time. They want to make sure it's right. They want to make sure it's right. But then they'd be mad because now it's sold out and they never get it. You know, some people have been trying to get black smoke for the last year and still has been unsuccessful. You know, if I put my stash to the side, I wouldn't be successful with it. So I will always suggest get the bundle.

I can promise you, you go like it. And it's going to definitely be another flavor, another flavor, another flavor. You can always think one is your favorite until you try the other, you know. All right. Well, we appreciate you for joining us. Did you did you bring us some? I definitely bought you some. It's right there. It's black smoke.
