It's Monday. Yes, back to the work week. Let me see if I still know how to do this, man. All right, Ray J. All right, Ray J. Been off for so long. You know what I'm saying? Make sure my mouth still work. Yeah, we were off the last week. The last four days because of vacation.

Four? Before the July was a holiday, so everybody was off. I feel like I've been off longer than that, though. I have, because I was at Essence Fest. We were here Friday. Well, I was in Cairns the week before. And then I was here for four or five days. And I was

off all last week. And now we're back. We back. How's everybody's vacay? What you guys do? Well, let's see. I mostly worked, but I actually, I was at Essence Fest. A lot of drama that went on there, but it was a positive, amazing event. So we'll talk about that later.

And then I went to go see my new house that I bought upstate New York. And now I'm in Miami getting ready to do Trick Daddy's cooking show. Okay. Shout out to Trick Daddy. Of course, I was out of essence for a couple of days and then I was home. I did nothing.

I absolutely positively did nothing. I hang with the family. We jumped in the pool. And then over the weekend was my car show in Atlanta. Shout out to everybody. Atlanta was so crazy, man. Drop a bomb for Atlanta. That's not a bomb. There we go. I'm on your knees

for Atlanta. The amount of people that came out in Atlanta, we did it so different. Shout out to Lincoln Tech who sponsored. Shout out to Monster Energy. We had a roller skating rink in the car show. That was pretty dope. There were people roller skating. Monster brought the BMX crew. They were doing tricks and flips on the bikes and showing the kids. So that was pretty dope. So there were people roller skating and then Monster brought the BMX crew.

So they were doing tricks and flips on the bikes and showing the kids. There were so many kids. So many people had a great time. So shout to Atlanta, everybody that came out to the car show. So appreciative, man. We had a good time.

The whole family was out there. It was just a good event. But before I came to work this morning, I had to make sure because I was seeing so many people. So I had to double check to make sure I didn't have COVID. So I had to take two tests. That don't mean you don't not have it. That just means it may not have showed to make sure I didn't have COVID so I had to take a I took like two tests.

That don't mean you don't not have it. That just means it may not have showed up yet. It didn't show up yet. Yeah, it is what it is. I'm talking positive. It didn't show up.

It's not. I didn't have it. So I seen spikes of all over the country with people having COVID. Well, I was out of it. I had some family members with COVID right now.

Yeah, so I I took two tests. Where were you? I was family vacation. I was in Anguilla dropping the Clues Bombs for Anguilla to AXA. You know, that's my spot. I love so I took two tests. Where were you? I was family vacation. I was in Anguilla, dropping the Clues Bombs fan. Anguilla to AXA. That's my spot. I love it out there. But yeah, they don't do COVID tests to get back in the country no more. What?

To get back in America. No. If you're vaccinated, you don't have to take no COVID test. I was in Africa, what, two weeks ago? When I had to take a test? To get back in America? It depends on where you're coming from. Oh, okay. I came back from Kenya and I definitely had to take a test. Yeah mean, it might be to get back in America? It depends on where you're coming from. Oh, okay. I came back from Kenya and I definitely had to take a test. Yeah, I thought they waived

all negative, positive, whatever. I thought they waived all COVID tests coming back into America. So we just free-balled it. It just don't matter. It's been fairly recent, though. That's what it feels like.

No, it's been a while. It's been a few months. It's been a few months. Since they waived tests coming back? Yeah, it's been a few months. It's definitely been at least three months at least. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. All right, good morning, everybody.

Front page news, what we talking about? Yes, let's talk about Brittany Griner and what's going on with her situation as she is fighting to get back to the United States. Hey, guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.

Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine.

I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.

Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe owned country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a racket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that?

Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

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. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So y'all, this is Questlove and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on

with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family-friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host

of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimminy here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Flash, slam, another one gone.

Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap is another one gone. Each episode is about a different, inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records.

Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, what's up? This is Ramses Jha. And I go by the name Q Ward. And we'd like you to join us each week for our show, Civic Cipher. That's right.

We're going to discuss social issues, especially those that affect black and brown people, but in a way that informs and empowers all people to hopefully create better allies. Think of it as a black show for non-black people. We discuss everything from prejudice to politics to police violence, and we try to give you the tools to create positive change in your home, workplace, and social circle. Exactly. Whether you're black, Asian, white, Latinx, indigenous, LGBTQIA+, you name it. If you stand with us, then we stand with you.

Let's discuss the stories and conduct the interviews that will help us create a more empathetic, accountable, and equitable America. You are all our brothers and sisters, and we're inviting you to join us for Civic Cipher each and every Saturday with myself, Ramses Jha, Q Ward, and some of the greatest minds in America. Listen to Civic Cipher every Saturday on the iHeartRadio

app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Alright, we'll get into that next. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. If you feel fat and bloated, make some noise this morning! Morning, everybody. It's D-E-J M-V-A-N-G-E-L-E-E. The holidays got you feeling fat and bloated.

No, New Orleans and Atlanta did. That's why you need to fast. It's a fasting day. I'm fasting all day today. Goodness gracious. At least until dinner time. New Orleans has such amazing food, and so does Atlanta. Yeah, it's been too much negative input and not enough output over the last few weeks, meaning I've eaten more than I've worked out and everything else,

and drank more than I've worked out. everything else and drank more than I've worked out I put air on my bike tires that's how I got to start riding again you probably the reason the bike tires went flat with your fat ass I didn't get on it yet

you ass but alright let's get into some front page you start man let's get into some front page news man you kinky already man I didn't say nothing

it's only been five minutes I didn't say nothing go ahead Yee alright well let's get it started talking about Brittany Griner. WNBA All-Star Weekend was in Chicago at Winchester Arena Court Sunday morning, and here

is Sue Bird, who is the WNBA Players Association Vice President, along with Nneka Agwumike talking, and she's the president of the Players Association, talking about what they are doing right now to try to make sure they spotlight Brittany Griner. We'll answer questions about All-Star and talk about the basketball,

but you're going to see her name on the back of all of our shirts. Fully focused on getting her home safely and as soon as possible. All right. So they actually had jerseys as well to make sure that they honored Brittany Griner to try to get her home. And I know Kamala Harris was on the news over the weekend. Face the Nation talking about the president doing everything that he can to try to get her to get back to the United States, along with other people who are in Russia right now.

I mean, the trial already started, right? Trial started last week, I believe. Yeah, last Friday it started. I thought they said the 14 but she did plead guilty I thought she pled guilty yeah she pleaded guilty she faces 10 years in prison

and so it's still a long road ahead they said it's been almost 150 days since she's been in prison and so right now they said her pleading guilty is going to actually, according to legal experts, hopefully expedite her being able to come home, taking accountability for having those cartridges and the hash. And so hopefully that is what's going to help get her home faster. All right. Yes, I mean, it's awful.

And now let's talk about the NFL and what's happening with that. I guess they're launching their own streaming service. Makes sense. And the Sunday ticket is going to be moving to a streaming service, according to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. Here's what he had to say. Well, we're continuing them. This discussion has been going on well over a year. It's an important decision for us because these assets are really valuable to us. I clearly believe we'll be moving to a streaming service. I think that's best for the consumers at this stage. But we have so much interest right now,

and there's so much innovation around that and how we're going to be able to change the way people watch football. And I think we'll probably have some decision by the fall. That would make sense. Yeah, why wouldn't they? The NFL is the biggest thing moving in all of America, like hundreds and hundreds of millions of people tuning into the NFL. You think you're not going to download the NFL app?

You're going to have to. You're going to get a subscription. Whatever the subscription is, you're going to pay that subscription. Yeah, absolutely. I actually think every individual team could have their own streaming platform if they wanted to. That's a lot. That's a lot of money.

Think about when you're out of town. Like for me, I'm a Dallas Cowboy fan. I don't always get to see the Cowboys on Sunday. You can watch NFL Network and see highlights, but if you want to watch the whole game, you got to get on somebody's bootleg link or something most of the time. Yeah, but if they do the streaming, they could do every game. You know what I mean? Because you could do the Giants

play at this time, the Cowboys play. Oh, absolutely. Yeah, I would pay. I'd prepay. They've been on DirecTV for nearly 30 years. So this is going to be something different and new for them. But, you know, Roger Goodell said this will give them the ability to innovate

beyond where we are today for our customers and especially younger demos. It just makes too much sense. It does. All right. Well, they haven't given any details about pricing yet. That's for NFL Plus as far as what it will offer, precisely when it will arrive.

But they are going to announce that information in a few weeks. All these old institutions got to get with the times, man. All of them, from the radio to the NFL, whatever it is. Like, get with the times. All these old institutions got to get with the times, man. All of them. From the radio to the NFL, whatever it is. Get with the times. Alright, well that is your front page news. Alright, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051 if you need to vent. Phone lines are wide

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Power 105.1. Let's go. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed. Say it with your chest.

We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So if you got something on your mind, let it out. Hello, who's this? Hey, how's it going, man? It's Ricardo from Cleveland, Ohio. Hey, Ricardo. Get it off your mind, let it out. Hello, who's this? Hey, how's it going, man? It's Ricardo from Cleveland, Ohio. Hey, Ricardo. Get it off your chest, bro. Man, I went to be Kevin Hart last night with my buddy Tick, man.

That was some of the funniest things, man. He got something special coming. Oh, you was at Atlantic City? No, no, Cleveland, Ohio. Oh, he was in Cleveland last night. Okay, okay. I thought he was in Atlantic City this weekend. No, I think it was last weekend.

He disrespecting Cleveland, Sean, man. We ain't no third world country, man. Cleveland's a third world country? We like a second world country. We ain't no third world country, man. Y'all was second world when LeBron played there. My goodness. Now we got Deshaun.

We kind of like two and a half. Y'all got the what? Deshaun. Deshaun Watson. Oh, well, it depends. It depends what he does on the football field next year. I think he'll be better than Baker. I think we're going to be better off.

Salute to Cleveland, though. Yeah, I think Kevin Hart was in Atlantic City Friday and then the week before he was in New Orleans. I missed him in New Orleans. I tried to go see him, but I... Oh, I'm going to see Kevin and Chris Rock next month. They'll be here. He actually kicked off Essence Fest.

It's the first time they had a Thursday night event, and that was Kevin Hart. Hello, who's this? This is Paul Bryant from Louisville, Kentucky. Hey, what's up, bro? What's up, Envy? Get it off your chest, brother. Yes, sir.

Before I get started, man, I've been trying to call y'all for so long, I got to give y'all a compliment. I listen to y'all every day for years. And the chemistry y'all got and the things y'all do and talk about, y'all show is just as important as Petey Green's was back in the day. Oh, come on. You know that's the ultimate compliment. You know that's one of my idols right there now.

Dropping the clues bomb for the late, great Petey Green. I feel like what I want to get off my chest is I want to switch it at the last minute. This is more important. I feel like as a culture, we are too quick to give up on each other in a relationship. Family used to matter back in the day. Now you make one mistake and males and females, sisters and brothers, kings and queens, it's so quick to dismiss each other and put a new man or a new woman around their kids and keep it moving. I feel like we need to take time and work out our problems and keep family together. I lost my family, and I told my baby mama's mother,

like, instead of tearing down a black family, why don't y'all help rebuild one and save one? What happened with your family? I did some things that I shouldn't have did, Ye. I got to admit that, and I lost them. And I learned how to love my baby mama too late. And when I finally learned how to love her the right way, it was too late. But I wish they would have stuck with me and gave me a chance because the man I am now is so much better than who I was when I was with her.

That's sad. I mean, I get what you're saying. That's usually how it is, though. You never know what you got until it's gone, man. You usually take it for granted when you got it. Yeah, sometimes it takes losing everything to make that change for the better. Hey, Charlamagne, I've been wanting to say this for so long to you. All these other shows got too much mayonnaise, brother.

I love you. I even had a radio show in Louisville. Listen, I had a radio show in Louisville, and I had the Petty Award. I quit doing it because I felt like I was biting you, but that's how much respect I got for you and all y'all. Y'all chemistry is golden. Love y'all. Thank you, Kane.

Thank you. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Now, we got rumors on the way? Yes, and let's talk Young Thug. His legal troubles are about to be highlighted. There's going to be a docuseries and a podcast based on that. We'll give you some more information.

All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip.

Gossip. The rumor report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela. Angela Yee. It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club.

All right, well, there is a Young Thug docuseries and podcast coming, and that's going to be based on everything that's going on with these RICO charges. Now, according to Rolling Stone Films and Jigsaw Productions, they're saying this is about the larger Atlanta hip-hop boom and the ongoing RICO case against YSL that accuses Young Thug and 27 other alleged collaborators of crimes ranging from racketeering to murder. The project seeks to separate the fact from the fiction of the criminal charges

against YSL members while also interrogating the controversial practice of prosecutors using rap lyrics as evidence of criminal activity. So Young Thug and his family have nothing to do with this. This is just Rolling Stone doing it. It's a docuseries, yes, and a podcast This is very premature

This is very premature Like what happened to waiting until the story plays out Before folks try to tell you a story Like he just got arrested in May Can he have his day in court first? No, I guess they're following what goes on in court Yeah, they're still in the early stages So everything is unnamed

And they're just getting started producing. But I guess if they plan to do this, they have to start now as far as documenting everything. Of course they're still in the early stages because the situation is still in the early stages. They don't got nothing to report on yet. I mean, it'd be interesting. I think people definitely want to see because people want to know now. They don't know what's true, what's fake, what's false, what's not, what's really going on. So the fact that they document it

and they go to court every day and can break down what those charges are, what really happened, if somebody took the stand. But they haven't even gone to court yet. They haven't even announced the trial date, nothing. Well, they're setting it up. I don't know. Yeah, and I think it starts in January, right, of 2023? That's what they said.

It just sounds very premature. But, you know, they also could be talking to other people in the music business. You know, you could talk to somebody like a Kevin Lyles who's worked with them. I mean, you know, there's also family members, other people in the neighborhood, teachers. Don't you think that's the problem with a lot of these cases, though? These cases get played out in the court of public opinion before these people actually have their day in court. I don't think the documentary is coming out now. They're following

the court to work on it so yeah as he goes to court and the proceedings happen i think they're going to be following the proceedings and going to court because you can go on youtube right now and pull up so many different documentaries youtube documentaries about this situation and i'm like yo these guys haven't even had their day in court yet how y'all know so much i just don't like how you know these documentaries they do these documentaries and it don't feel like the family gets none of it. Like you do a documentary and you do a whole show

on somebody's life and they don't eat off of that? Yeah, I highly doubt that's what the family's thinking about at a time like this. I mean, because the money can help pay the lawyers and attorney fees

and all that other stuff. That court is going to, his trial is going to cost millions of dollars. Mm-hmm. All right, well, prosecutors also have alleged that a nurse tried to smuggle cocaine and marijuana into jail for Gunna as Gunna is awaiting for his trial to start.

And they have photos of the nurse and the alleged drugs that she attempted to smuggle that started making the rounds on social media. But according to Gunna's attorney, he has completely denied the accusations. He said none of the allegations made today, these so-called new allegations are accurate. All they're looking for is for their son to get a fair shake and they don't think that's happening so far. And that's what stories like this that have been happening. But what they're saying is the woman was confronted. She dropped the bag and took off.

Yeah, I wondered about that too. I'm like, how did they know those drugs were for Gunna? Like, how did they put that two and two together? I mean, maybe they said she was going to visit him. I don't know. We don't even know this is true. This is according to prosecutors. Prosecutors are claiming the nurse

tried to do that. I'm so confused with the Gunna situation. Gunna's an artist. He's a rapper signed. They said they caught him because it's almost like conspiracy, but Gunna said, it's not. I'm an artist. I will come home. You can tap my phone lines. You can see who comes in and out. And they're still not letting Gunner out?

And what's sad about that Gunner situation, too, is that headline, right? The headline, nurse brings drugs to Gunner. You don't even know if that's true or not. No. But the headline is already out there. So when he does have his day in court and you try to pick a jury or whatever it is, they've already seen headlines like this. Correct.

Playing things out in the court of public opinion hurts everybody when they actually got to go to court all right and Cameron Diaz was on the Second Life podcast last week and she feels like she was actually a drug mule at some point in her life when she was trying to start her modeling career in Paris here's what she had to say about that I didn't work a day in Paris. Like I was there a full year. I got like one job, but really I think I was like a mule carrying drugs to Morocco, I swear to God.

It was before like TSA or anything like that. It was like early nineties. And they gave me a suitcase that was locked that had my costumes in it, quote unquote, air quotes. And when I got there, the guy was like, whose suitcase is this? Can somebody open it? And I was like, literally,

just all the calculations in my head went running back of like, what the is in that suitcase? I'm like, this is really unsafe. I was like, I don't know. It's not mine. I don't, I have no idea who's it is. So what was in the suitcase? This ain't Pulp Fiction.

I need to know. She doesn't know. She said it wasn't hers. And she got out of there. Somebody out there just heard Cameron Diaz. Can you imagine? Somebody out there just heard Cameron Diaz tried to carry drugs in the jail for Gunna from Morocco. You stupid shit.

Somebody just heard that. I'm telling you somebody just heard that in their mind. That story just played out completely different for Cameron Diaz than it would have for anyone else. All right, well, that is your rumor report. I ain't gonna lie, that's not like she just was describing Pulp Fiction to me. I think people just be getting on these podcasts making up stuff at this point. If you listen closely, some of these people be describing

scenarios from movies. I heard the game last week. The game sounded like he was talking about Boys in the Hood. He said he saw a dead body. They were playing football in the street. Maybe that's an L.A. thing. I don't know. But it sounded like boys in the hood.

That is boys in the hood. And Cameron Diaz just now sounded like Pulp Fiction. My goodness. Okay. All right. Well, we got front page news. Next, what are we talking about? Yes, Joe Biden has signed an executive order,

and that is for abortion access. We'll tell you what that's all about. All right. We'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, everybody. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Everybody, it's DJ, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Where we starting, Yeezy?

Well, let's start with Roe versus Wade. Now, after the Supreme Court overturned Roe versus Wade, President Joe Biden responded on Friday by signing an executive order that will protect access to abortion nationwide. Here's what he had to say speaking from the Roosevelt Room of the White House. We need two additional pro-choice senators and a pro-choice House to codify Roe as federal law. Your vote can make that a reality. I know it's frustrating and it made a lot of people very angry. But the truth is this. When you read the decision the court has made clear, it will not protect the rights of women. Period.

While I wish it had not come to this, the fastest way to restore Roe is to pass a national law codifying Roe, which I will sign immediately upon its passage at my desk. Sounds good. I don't know how impactful that is because it's the same old rhetoric. And it's hard to take them serious when they talk about codifying Roe v. Wade, because President Obama ran on that in 2007. He said he's going to codify Roe v. Wade. And then when he got into the White House, he said that wasn't one of his top legislative priorities. And he even had a super majority, you know, for like four months in the House. So he could have codified it with no problem unless, of course, he couldn't get the votes because he had people in the Senate who were Democrats by name only. But if that's the case, stop volunteering lies and telling people you're going to do things when you can't get them done. Well, yeah, it'll definitely stall in the Senate. They're going to need 10 Republican votes in order for that to happen.

But Joe Biden also suggested a filibuster carve out to enshrine abortion rights in federal law. But of course we know that Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema would, I'm sure oppose that as they have been. So he also called on women to turn out in record numbers this November to elect more Democrats who support abortion rights. And like I said, it sounds good because when president Obama was in the white House, they had a super majority in the House.

They had that. And he said it wasn't one of his top legislative priorities. Now, Joe Biden also talked about a 10 year old girl who was a rape victim and was forced to have to travel out of state to Indiana to terminate the pregnancy and maybe save her life. And that happened just last week. So he said, imagine being that little girl. So what does this executive action do that he just signed? Well, some of the things that it will protect is making sure that you get leave for federal workers traveling for medical care. But he hopes that will set an example for private companies to do the same. Amazon, Starbucks and other corporations have announced expanded health benefits to pay employees travel fees if they're seeking an abortion and the procedure is unavailable near where they live. They also want to make sure that women can travel out of state for abortion care. You know, they try to say that perhaps women wouldn't be able to do that.

It would be illegal if you live in a state where it's not provided. They also want to make sure they increase outreach and public education efforts regarding access to reproductive health care services. Also make emergency contraception and IUDs and access to medication abortion protected and expanded. And one thing that I think would have been a good idea, but Biden doesn't seem to be willing to do this, is using federal facilities and land for abortion services. All right. So that's not included in the executive order. All right. All right. Well, that is your front page news. All right.

Well, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Now, you were telling us about this lady who got a ticket for driving in the HOV lane. What happened with Brandi? That's the lady's name, right? I agree with that. Brandi Batoni. She's pregnant and she was in the high occupancy vehicle lane.

And when she got pulled over for driving alone, she said that her unborn fetus was her passenger. Here's what she said. She starts peeking around. He's like, is it just you? And I said, no, there's two of us. And he's like, well, where's the other person? And I went right here and I said, well, not trying to throw a political mix here, but with everything going on, this counts as a baby. All right. Well, let's talk about it. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Brandy, she's pregnant. She was in the H.O.V. lane. She got pulled over. She got a ticket. I agree with this. Right. Or is this wrong? But I must say a couple of things, though. And if she got twins, she definitely in the right. I'm going to say this, right?

But this is the thing. If you kill somebody, if you kill a woman and she's pregnant, you get allegedly, I guess what? Murder for two people, right? Two bodies, right? It's two bodies. I don't know. It's the baby and the actual woman.

That's true? Yes, that's true. Oh, okay. If you kill a pregnant woman, right? But it's how many seats are in the car that's taken up, correct? I don't know. I just thought that's a hot topic. The cop said that the HOV rules refer to two persons outside of the body.

And that's what he told her when he wrote her a $275 ticket. I ain't never seen that in no fine print. I said the whole lane requires either a minimum of two people per vehicle. It don't say outside of the body or anything like that. It don't say seats, right. 800-585-1051. What are your thoughts? By the way, when you see a pregnant woman, depending on how many months she is,

that's the first thing you think. She's with child. That's what you say. She's with child. I agree with this woman. Case dismissed. Let's talk about it. 800-585-1051.

What are your thoughts? It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's D-E-J-N-V-A-N-G-E-L-A-E. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

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. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy.

There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country?

My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets.

Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast.

Listen to Civic Cipher every Saturday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. not talking about brandy no wood we're talking about brandy who brandy baton she's pregnant and

she's trying to fight a traffic ticket that she got in texas she's 34 weeks pregnant when she got pulled over and she told the cops her unborn fetus was her passenger she was in the hov lane she said my baby girl is right here she's a person starts peeking around he's like is it just you and i said no there's two of us and he's like where's the other person and I went right here and I said well not trying to throw a political mix here but with everything going on this counts as a baby we can look at it two different ways if you murder a pregnant woman you get charged with two bodies so that means that it's two bodies that they're going to charge you with right but sometimes they say HOV lane lane means how many people are actually in the seat.

Who says who? Where's that at in the fine print? That's what I thought. I thought they count the seats. That's why people get a fake mannequin and they put the mannequin, well, not a fake mannequin, but they put a mannequin in the seat. That's because they're not pregnant. If you was pregnant, you wouldn't have to put the fake mannequin in the seat.

I agree with Brandy. Home lane rules say it's a minimum of two passengers per vehicle. They have to show me in the fine print where it says the person has to be outside the body sitting in the seat. Because when we are talking about pregnant women, what do we say? We say this woman is with child. Keywords, with child.

If she is with child, there's two passengers per vehicle. Case dismissed. Now, let me ask you a question. You know, sometimes the HOV lanes are three people or more. Now, how do I know if you really got twins in the oven or not? It don't matter. How can I detect that? It just depends on the law.

Some say two, some say three. Well, I would think if you get a ticket and you are pregnant with twins, you probably can show that I'm pregnant with twins and get it dismissed, right? And also, I want y'all to keep in mind that I know nothing about the HOV lane. First time I ever saw a HOV lane was in New York City, and I said to myself, damn, Jay-Z got his own lanes in New York?

I did. When I moved here in 2006, that's the first thing I thought. I said, damn, Jay-Z got his own lanes in New York City. He really is the king of New York. Shut up, man. Hello, who's this?

Now she also... Tony from Louisville New York. Shut up, man. Hello, who's this? Now she also... Tony from Louisville. Mr. Space Movie 1992. Hey, bro, what's your thoughts, man? Man, I think it's bogus, man. She's gonna have to pay her ticket. They don't let us get away with it. We travel with a million babies on us.

Huh? What? What? Oh, you're talking about with your sperm and your... No, that don't count. Ah, come don't count. You ain't a conceiver, baby. You just got sperm swimming in your balls.

That's not the same. And the law in Texas says an unborn child at every stage of gestation, fertilization to birth is an individual. So you have to at least be at gestation. I don't even know what that means. What's a gestation? Is that a Justin Timberlake concert? Is that a new hashtag? Is that a new album? That's a new Justin Bieber album? I don't even know what that means. What's a Justation? Is that a Justin Timberlake concert? Is that a new hashtag? Is that a new album?

That's a new Justin Bebop? I don't know. What's Justation? That's not like a new Justin Bebop. Alright. Hello, who's this? This is Tila. Hey, Tila. Good morning. Good morning. How are you? How are you feeling? What's your opinion, mama? I was a little frustrated because I feel like since they just, the

Supreme Court just ruled on Roe versus Wade, did they mind to count her baby as a whole human? I agree. As soon as you conceive, the baby is alive and you can't do anything about it, so it's a human. I agree. I know that's true. Yeah, that's the law in Texas. I honestly think that if that is the law, that that baby is a person, then she should travel in that HOV lane no problems.

I feel like as soon as someone can see, they should start collecting IRS taxes and everything else. She's with child. What does with child mean? With child means I'm with a child. It's two of us. You say I'm eating

for two. Like, yes. Yes. I much. Yes. I agree. 800-585-1051. Now, if you just joined us, a lady named Brandy. What's her last name? Brandy Baton. Baton.

She was driving in the HOV lane. You know, the HOV lane. In some places, you have to have two or more people or three or more people. It was her and her baby, her unborn baby. And the cop gave her a ticket. And she was like, hey, I got another person here. They gave her a ticket. We're asking, what is, I got another person here. They gave her a ticket. We're asking, what is your thoughts?

800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about a young lady named Brandi. What happened with Brandi Yee?

She was driving in the HOV lane. She got pulled over. She said she's 34 weeks pregnant. So she did have somebody in the car with her. Her unborn fetus, she said, was her passenger. So we're asking 800-585-1051. What are your thoughts? Some people say, you know, HOV lane means

a body in the seat. There was no other body in the seat. And some people say, you know what? Yes, she had a baby. If you commit a crime and you kill a pregnant woman, you get two bodies. You get charged with two murders. So that's what we're asking. Hello, who's this? Hi, DJ Evie. Hey, good morning.

What's your name? I'm Kiana from Atlanta. Hey, what's your thoughts, Mama? I'm fine. What's your thoughts on this lady, Brandi, with the HOV lane? I think she's absolutely right. I agree with Charlamagne because the problem with humans, we have double standards. So when we agree with something, well, six weeks is a human being. So now we cannot have abortion services.

But then when we disagree with something, it's like, oh, no, well, I want this $275. So this baby doesn't count as a human being because I want this money. But when we're trying to stay white life, it counts as a human being. That's right. And she's 34 weeks. 34 weeks, the baby's brain is fully developed, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, she's a person. Hello, who's this?

It's L.A. L.A. from Patterson, baby. L.A. from Patterson. What up, brother? How you doing, man? Listen, I want to talk about that subject with the young lady in the car with the baby. Mm-hmm. Now, she already knows she got to have a live body next to her right there.

No. Where does it say that at, King? Where does it say you got to have a live body next to you? Show me in the fine print. You need to read the rules of regulation, my brother. Tell me where they at because you ain't read them. That's what it means, brother. Read the book.

What book? I'm not here to battle with you. What book is this? What book? Talking about the DMV book, it must be. She could have just simply said to the officer, listen, I got a baby in my stomach and I'm going crazy. I'm mixed up this morning. That's it.

He might have let her go. You know, he might have just let her go on that point alone. You know, but he's looking at it like you're a driver. You know what the HOV means. What does it mean? I'm looking in the book right now. I'm looking in the book. I'm looking in the book.

It said Hovland requires either a minimum of two people per vehicle or three people per vehicle. What do you call two people? I call a woman with child two people. No, it's two people. I'm looking at the picture of the woman. Let me ask you a question, bro. Now, I'm looking at the Texas law.

It says who can use the HOV lane, a vehicle occupied by two or more people, or a motorcyclist may use HOV lanes. Okay, then. That's two or more people. Let me ask you a question, bro. If you ain't an officer walking around with a pregnancy test, you're getting that ticket. Bro, let me ask you a question.

If you kill a pregnant woman, you know you get charged with two bodies. Correct. So that means it's two people. Bro, she's 34 weeks. Brandi is 34 weeks. I'm looking at a picture of her. Her stomach big as hell, bro. Have a nice day. Have a nice day. Her stomach big as hell, bro. Okay. She could have been fat. Yo, shut up, man.

Have a nice day. Shut up. Have a nice day. Shut up. And I'm mad the officer gave her a ticket anyway, seeing that the lady was pregnant. Should have let the lady go. Should have let the lady go. You know how much stress you got when you're pregnant and all that stuff?

She probably hot. Let her go. I can't believe he gave her a ticket. That was actually very nasty of him. Yeah, he should have gave her a ticket. By the way, 34 weeks is like the baby is like there. The baby got a brain. Any moment.

Fully developed brain at 34 weeks. The cop is the man. Why you give that lady a ticket? He should have seen the lady pregnant and be like, you know what? Go ahead, man. Go ahead. Have a nice day. Goodness gracious.

And you should have just let her go. That's a great excuse. Just the fact that she's got the wherewithal to be like, look, man, it's a whole child in my stomach. It is two of us. You know what? You right. And keep it moving.

Goodness gracious. Well, what's the moral of the story if there is a moral? The moral of. It is two of us. You know what? You right. And keep it moving. Goodness gracious. Well, what's the moral of the story, if there is a moral? The moral of the story is, man, I agree with her. That's all there is to it. I agree with her. She's 34 weeks pregnant. What's the point of saying somebody's with child if you're not going to respect that child in a situation like that?

I'm with Brandi. Sleuth to Brandi. Case dismissed. Well, we got rumors on the way. Right. And since we're talking about that, let's talk about Nicki Minaj. There was speculation that she was pregnant. She got everybody even more

confused. We'll tell you what she had to say on her live. Alright, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Get money Get money Get money Get money Get money You wanna send more on my living room floor Play Nintendo with season E Pick up my phone, say

And everybody was dressed up in their Boosie Prom gear and tuxedoed out and suited out and bow ties and everybody

No, Duvall was doing it. It was Duvall, Clay. There's like four people doing the electric slide. I didn't get that. Except for Lil Duval. No, Duval was doing it. It was Duval, Clay.

I think so many times we forget our serenity prayer, which is God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. I think we forget that a lot. We spend a lot of time stressing things that are just simply above us. Yeah, you're right. I'll shout to them. I just want to shout to them. I'll get them out.

What's up? Now we got rumors on the way, Yeezy. Yes, and we are going to also do some prayers for Pastor John Gray. We'll tell you what's happening. His wife actually did an Instagram post about his condition right now and is asking for prayers. All right, we'll get to it next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Pastor John Gray. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. All right. Well, Pastor John Gray's wife, Aventa Gray, has written a post asking for prayers and for a miracle. Apparently he is in the hospital after feeling a little different over the

past couple of weeks. He went to the ER on Thursday evening and was immediately admitted to CCU with the saddle pulmonary embolism. And so apparently what she is saying is that people have come in with that same condition and, and died. And so she is definitely praying for a miracle. She said to just to let people know, and she's calling for prayers from the community so we are praying

he's going to need to undergo two types of surgery due to the pressure on his heart and she said more blood clots were also found in his lungs as well damn my god john gray man he just celebrated a born day too all right now nikki minaj has shut down some pregnancy rumors after i guess making a mistake about you know her wording here's what she had to say and this is after she performed in new orleans am i pregnant oh i didn't mean to tweet this i'm not fat y'all i'm pregnant oh wait did i say it wrong oh i'm sorry i think i said it wrong um i meant to say i'm not pregnant i'm fat oh my god i didn't mean to tweet that like well i just did the joke y'all get it Oh, my God. I didn't mean to tweet that. Like, well, I just did the joke.

Y'all get it. But thanks, guys, for all the congratulatory. It has to be a feeling like some people were saying that she was pregnant after her Essence Fest performance. And she was responding to that. Oh, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. That she's not pregnant. And I just want to put it out there. that she was pregnant after her Essence Fest performance, and she was responding to that, letting people know that she's not pregnant. And I just want to put it out there. I was hosting the Hulu livestream of the Essence Fest.

It's the first year they've done it for three nights in a row. And the first night, Nicki Minaj was headlining, but right before she went on stage, they said that when, oh, well, not before, before the concert started, they said you cannot say her name for legal purposes because they weren't sure if they were going to be able to stream it they were trying to work it out and then towards the end of the broadcast they couldn't work it out for it to be streamed so that was why nobody was able to mention her name during the um the live stream because they were trying to figure out if she would allow it to happen i heard you hate you

know nikki shut up no they were for to figure out if she would allow it to happen. I heard you hating on Nicki. Shut up. No, for legal purposes, obviously, if somebody doesn't give you streaming rights, but they're still trying to work through it with essence and make it happen. Why you didn't want to say that queen's name? They just cannot say her name. Why you didn't want to say that queen's name? It wasn't on the stream. By the way, they also shouldn't wait until the night of.

That's not something you work out on the night of. You negotiate the night of. Right? Like, they should have been working with Nikki and her team on that. It was supposed to be streamed and then I guess apparently she wasn't aware that it was streamed on Hulu but it was a one-time stream. It wasn't like a

on-demand situation. I can see why Nikki and her team would feel that way though. That's an extra check. Not only is it an extra check, if you know that your show is going to be broadcasted to millions of people, which nowadays it is anyway because of social media. Right. You probably would put a, do something different.

Right. But she's probably going on tour. But I think it was already. You know what I mean? She's setting up a tour. From my understanding, from my understanding, it was everybody, you know, gave permission for streaming in their contracts. Well, clearly Nikki did. Yeah, clearly she didn't.

Yeah, but she was. So everybody else, you know, Janet Jackson, everything else did stream. I don't know where the misunderstanding was. Clearly, I don't work for Essence. I'm not on that side of negotiating things. I was just following instructions. They said, you cannot say her name. We're going to try to work this out last

minute, you know, but it didn't happen. But she did at least perform, so people who were there had a chance to see that. I heard she killed it, too. I heard she brought out Lil Wayne and Baby, right? Berman? Yeah, I saw Lil Wayne. I saw Lil Wayne. I saw when he ran onto the stage.

I think they said Berman was there too. But you know. All right. Now let's talk about speaking of kids. How many kids does Elon Musk have? Well, they said that he just recently fathered twins with Siobhan Zyliss, who was a director at one of his companies. Damn! Who got more? Him or Nick? That's enough to get through the whole

blank. He has nine kids. How many Nick got? I think Nick got nine too. How many kids? But he has some on the way right now. So they actually congratulated each other on social media. How many I got? I'm too far behind. I only got six. Go ahead.

You got time. Shop's closed. Elon Musk said, doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis. A collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces by far. And Nick Cannon said, right there with you, my

brother, in response to that. So, you know, Elon Musk already has, like we said, nine kids. Now, is there an underpopulation crisis? Because I think Thanos would disagree. Thanos thinks that the world is overpopulated. Is there an underpopulation crisis? Who's Thanos? Wow, you disrespectful.

You're going to be one of the first to go when the snap comes. What's the snap? What are you talking about? Don't worry about it. Now, Elon Musk had posted last week, far too many people are under the illusion that Earth is overpopulated even though birth rate trends are so

obviously headed to population collapse. What does that mean? Alright, well, that is your rumor report. I guess it's birth rates are trending down. That I know. Especially for white people. Alright, that is your rumor report

what it's the truth I'm helping out all the black people I'm trying to have as many babies as possible it's not me I'm done at four

I'm gonna need a vasectomy I don't need I don't need no you know what the Supreme Court needs to ban people farting on the plane the Supreme Court

needs to ban anybody that's a grown ass adult that farts on the plane it gives you gas yo farting on the plane is cruel and unusual punishment. But it's nothing that you can do, though.

Yes, you can. Take your ass to the bathroom. I don't fart in my clothes, so I really have a problem with people farting in their clothes. But take your ass to the bathroom. Farting on the plane when there's no circulation

is wild. If you see me on a plane and you see me turn my vent on, it's because I let a little tss go. I think we need to start shaming people who fart on the plane. Even if you don't know who did it, when you smell it, just be like, who farted? Ew.

Just make a scene about it. Like, unless it's a child, of course. But a child will tell you when they do it. All right. Well, thank you, Yee, for those rumors. Who you giving your dog to, man? Four after the hour. Let's talk cruel and unusual punishment to chickens.

There's people out here choking chickens, man. Beating chickens. Hitting cocks in the head. We'll discuss four after the hour. When has that been wrong? All right. We'll get to it next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Beating chickens. Hitting cocks in the head. We'll discuss more after the hour. When has that been wrong? All right, we'll get to it next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Summer's here, and I can't wait to unwind and catch up on sleep. Right now, get king beds for queen prices, queen beds for twin prices, and save up to $500 on select mattresses from top brands.

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 Charlemagne the guy.

I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this. Yeah, it's Donkey of the Day. For Monday, June 11th goes to Animal Control Offices and the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office in Jacksonville, Florida. First off, we are back from vacation. And one thing about being on vacation, you see so many stories that are Donkey of the Day worthy, but you also see conversations that,

you see donkeys that will spark broader conversations. And you know I love to discuss. So let's do that. Let's discuss. Now, what does your Uncle Charlotte always say about the great state of florida huh the craziest people in america come from the bronx and all of florida and today's donkey is no exception see we all know double standards are real matter of fact we was just discussing some last hour okay but nowadays i don't even know if there are double standards all right most things are just hypocrisy and blatant contradictions there is absolutely no consistency with nothing all right literally you can see one

thing happen today and be against it and see the same thing happen tomorrow and be with it most of the time it depends on the who and what of said situation and that is what james nicks a jacksonville resident is trying to tell folks about his situation. And I agree. Okay? See, James was unjustly charged with animal cruelty after investigators said he killed his neighbor's pet rooster. Yes, James had to take his neighbor's cock out because his neighbor's cock was attacking

him. Let's go to Action News Jacksonville for the report, please. I didn't know to give it a 21-gun salute, CPR, mouth-to-mouth, you know, or call the chicken ambulance. Big Roo was Jason DeFelice's pet rooster. That is, until James Nix hit it with a stick. So I'm defending myself, you know, I was feared for my safety and the chicken you know died. Nick says the rooster attacked people. I have not heard that because I know the neighbor here I know him like we're friends he never said anything to me

about it. I did tell him after the chicken hit my dad I said hey man the chicken attacked my dad. Oh what's the deal it's just a chicken what's he gonna do you know okay well look. So one day when Nick says the rooster followed him I said, hey man, the chicken attacked my dad. Oh, it's just a chicken. What's he going to do? You know, okay, well, look. So one day when Nix says the rooster followed him and attacked him. His neck flares up and he's doing his thing and he's trying to jump up at me. He was trying to get the animal away. And I tried to hit it, but the chicken's jumping up at me and I accidentally knocked it in the head.

And in late June, James Nix went to jail for animal cruelty. Chickens die every day, B. I agree with this man. Okay, James Nix is not wrong. We can do Breakfast Club Court and take him to court, but the reality of the situation is the most disrespected bird in America is the chicken. The most unprotected bird in America is the wrong. We can do Breakfast Club Court and take them to court, but the reality of the situation is the most disrespected bird in America is the chicken. The most unprotected bird in America is the chicken.

The most neglected bird in America is the chicken. You can go through certain neighborhoods and just see chickens walking around unattended. They not in no coupe. They not on a leash. Nothing. Just roaming. Does that sound like something someone cares for? Let me tell you a story. I was on the island of Anguilla

all last week. Drop on the clues bombs, Anguilla. It's my favorite place in the world. That is the place where you will see a chicken roaming free. A cock taste you? Shut up. I was on the beach with my six-year-old at a place called Blanche's Beach Shack on Meads Bay. I love it there. Drop on the clues bombs for Blanche's Beach Shack, okay?

And there was a chicken roaming around with her little chickadees, and I told my 6-year-old daughter, those chickens were coming to have a conversation with her because they want to know why you always eating their family in the form of tenders and nuggets, okay? My 6-year-old was very concerned, and she said she's never eating chicken again because of it. I'm telling y'all this because I'm letting you know

that the way a child sees things is the purest way to see things. Now, my 14-year-old, when I tried to hit her with the same finesse that the chickens want to have a conversation with her for eating their cousins, she said, good, then. I'm going to tell him he's next. The moral of the story is you can't pick and choose when you want to care about chickens, okay? I grew up chasing chickens down with my grandma, grabbing them, twisting them around my hand, spinning them like a helicopter. Word to Peter Pablo. Is that not cruel and unusual punishment?

Have you ever seen what happens at a chicken farm? The cruelty that happens at chicken farms has been very well documented. Billions of chickens, billions. When I say billions, I mean billions. Billions of chickens are abused and killed just for food. Just so you can have a spicy chicken sandwich for lunch. Okay. It is a fact that chickens are subjected to some of the most inhumane treatments of any factory farmed animal. Okay. Extreme confinement, surgical procedures performed without painkillers and the denial of normal socialization opportunities. If you're not going to bring

charges against big pharma and by big pharma, I mean farms. If you're not going to bring charges against big pharma and by big pharma i mean farms if you're not going to bring charges against these factories and farms killing billions of chickens for food then you gotta leave james nicks alone okay oh 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.

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.

Some people actually pay for that. But to charge that man with animal cruelty for standing

his ground against a cock, knowing you're going to Chick-fil-A today is hypocrisy at its highest level. Please give the animal control offices and the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. You are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day.

Yeehaw. And I know you want to take James to Breakfast Club Court, but James did nothing wrong. Because what's going to happen to that cock's carcass? All that cock's carcass is going to end up doing is being meat that goes in somebody's mouth. Am I lying? Mm-hmm.

What? You're not lying. I'm not lying. They're not going to have a funeral for the cock. They're not going to bury the chicken anywhere. You're not going to have a funeral for the cock. They're not going to bury the chicken anywhere. You're not going to have a service for the chicken. That cock meat is going in somebody's mouth. Well, my whole thing is, what are you supposed to do when a cock is chasing you?

I don't know. I've never been a chase by a cock. Well, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Imagine you minding your business, right? And here comes a cock chasing you. I've never chased a cock. Well, I know I have chased a cock. I've been a cock chasing you. I've never chased a cock. Well, I know I have chased a cock.

I've been a cock chaser. I've never had a cock chase me. What? I just told you I used to chase chickens with my grandma. And we used to catch the chickens. All right, you cock chaser. And throw them around our head like Petey Pablo's t-shirts. All right, you used to grab cocks and spin them around.

All right, 800-585-1051. Let's open up the phone lines. What are you supposed to do if a cock's chasing you? How do you defend yourself? Especially if you're actually scared. And I don't know if a cock can hurt you or not. I know that they have cock fights. They do?

I'm sure they can get busy if they are attacked. But what do you do? What is this man supposed to do if he was scared for his life against this cock? I don't know. I think you did the right thing, man. Gave the cock a little little to the head a what? you know what I'm saying

put it right there what? okay alright well 800-585-1051 the question is what are you supposed to do for cock chasing

that's right I've never had that I don't know I feel like these are subliminals I don't know what you're talking about what are you talking about you just had a whole donkey by the rooster

what's wrong with you? What are you doing? All right. 800-585-1051. Cox chasing you. What do you do? Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. I know it now. I like me. I like me. I like me. I like me. That kid don't even get what that is. Call me. Add your opinions to the Breakfast Club topic.

Come on. 800-585-1051. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, we're talking about Charlamagne's donkey of the day. Yes, today I gave donkey of the day to animal control officers and the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office in Jacksonville, Florida, because they charged a man named James Nix with animal cruelty

because he was being attacked, okay, by a cock, a chicken. His neighbor's chicken was attacking him. He hit the cock in the head, and he accidentally killed the cock. James' defense was that chickens die every day, B. Right. Popeyes, churches, KFC, Chick-fil-A, and he's absolutely 100% right. You can't pick and choose when you want to care about chickens. Right.

And let's ask the question. You know, what do you do when a cock is chasing you? That's the question. 800-585-1051. I'm jetting. I'm running. I see y'all from the city. You know what I'm saying? Y'all grew up in New York. I grew up in Moss Corner, South Carolina, dropping the clues, Moss Corner, South Carolina. So I grew up, you know, chasing chickens. I've chased a chicken or two with my grandma. You know what I'm saying? And, you know, so I've never been a I've never had to run from a cock.

I'm a cock chaser. Okay, you got a chaser over there. And you know, when you grab them cocks, you grab them by their neck and you twist them around your hand like Petey Pablo and you raise them over your head and you spin them like a helicopter until that neck breaks. Is that not cruel and unusual punishment? That is. That is. Is what happens at these factories, these factories not cruel and unusual punishment to these chickens? So what age, growing up in the South, were you comfortable

with the cock? Like, what age? What do you mean? Well, first of all, let's be clear. Cocks ain't easy to catch. Alright? Alright, I'm telling y'all that right now. If these people had to do what we had to do to catch cocks back in the day, like you actually had to chase them, it wouldn't be so many, it wouldn't

be billions and billions around the world. That's why they raise them in these farms and subject them to cruel and unusual punishment because they don't want to put in the work of actually chasing the cock and catching it. You got to earn that meat in your mouth. Okay. Okay? That's what we used to have to do back in the day. You earned that meat.

But the chickens were not running around free. Okay. Like that. My uncle owned a chicken farm. And yes, they used to sell eggs on the island in Montserrat. But the chickens were not running around free like that. Now, ma'am, I know you're excited about you and that cock.

What happened? No, like growing up in Key West, everybody gets chased by them. You just mind your own business. And then a big-ass cock comes out of nowhere and they're chasing you.

For KFC, Popeyes, churches, I agree with him. All right, well, let's go to the phone line.

Hello, who's this? It's Darryl calling from Brooklyn, New York. Hey, Darryl, what's up, man? What's going on, Envy? You ever seen a cock out there in Brooklyn? Out here, I've seen multiple. Have you ever been chased by a cock, sir? I have.

Out here door dashing in Brooklyn. Really? Yeah, I literally came across one out here in Brooklyn while delivering a door dash delivery to a customer's house. Literally, they're right across the street from the graveyard, and I'm staring at it, and a damn cop came across the street. And I'm like, what the hell is going on? I'm like, yo, who the hell has a cop out here in Brooklyn?

So I'm looking at it, and it's looking at me, and it's coming closer and closer and closer. My ass ran in my car with a Christmas. I ain't talking. It just had this beady little look in its eyes. I was like, my dude, like, what you doing? You about to attack me, bro? Yo, I never knew that cocks were chasing people like this, yo. That's a scary movie.

Cocks in Brooklyn? That's a scary movie. Yeah, that's scary. For real. I'm glad you got away, bro. It scared me at the moment, but I'm going to go Chick-fil-A after. That's right. And I guess context matters

too, though, because if I saw a chicken in Brooklyn, I would think something was wrong. Absolutely. I'd be like, why is this chicken just roaming around Brooklyn? Absolutely. Growing up, somebody down the block from me had a chicken in their backyard. Really? Hello? Hey, what's your name?

Hi, my name is Michelle. How are you? Hey, Michelle. Good morning. Good morning. Now, have you ever had an incident with a rooster? Have I had an incident with a rooster? I gotta be honest, I don't like them. I put them in the same category as ostriches. There's birds that

I don't trust. I haven't had an experience with that type of cock Not whatsoever, no You eat them though, right? You eat them though I don't know, I don't know Listen, I lived in the city for many years I love the farm

But those animals, I can do it out And I will tell you this There is nothing worse than the smell of chicken Poop I'll tell ya I. There is nothing worse than the smell of chicken poop. Oh, that's true. I'll tell you. I wonder if these chickens are attacking people because they can smell the chicken on your breath. Like, think about that.

Think about if you just ate chicken for lunch or something and then you encounter a chicken and that chicken can smell its cousin on your breath. You think it's not going to attack you for what you've done to his family? I've never thought about it like that. What's the moral of the story, Charlamagne? I mean, we already heard a lot of information from you this morning. We heard that you... The moral of the story is I just want everybody to be consistent. Like, you know what I'm saying?

I mean, don't get me wrong. We're humans, so it's hard for humans not to be hypocrites, you know, and it's hard for humans not to contradict themselves, and it's okay to change your mind, but we have to be consistent because it really does not make no sense to live in a world where billions and billions and billions of chickens are killed every day simply for people's food. But then you charge somebody with animal cruelty. You know what it feels like?

It feels like how marijuana is being legalized all throughout the country. But you still have people in jail, you know, for marijuana. In some places, marijuana is legal. In other places, you can still get locked up for it and get a charge. Like, that's what it feels like. You can't charge that man James Nix with no animal cruelty because he hit a cock in the head and killed the cock. All right. Well, we got rumors on the way in.

Why are you looking at me? I'm not looking at you. And would you eat something on a menu that said this is a cock sandwich? If they told you this is a cock sandwich. Not just any kind of chicken. Not just a hen. This is a cock. You If they told you this is a cock sandwich, not just any kind of chicken, not just a hen, this is a cock. You eat glizzies. You eat glizzies.

Yo, glizzy is the nastiest name for any food ever created. Why do New Yorkers call glizzies hot dogs? And don't pause it either. They just be like, yo, I just ate a glizzy. Yo. I promise

you. Glizzy? We need more glizzy, Shane. Stop calling them things glizzy. That sounds crazy. Oh, man. A glizzy? What is glizzy? Glizzy sounds like the glaze is all over your face now. Oh, right. Yeah, we got rumors on the way. Glizzy?

Man, we're going to talk about R. Kelly. And it looks like he might be getting married. Jesus Christ. Happy Monday. Rumors on the way. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

You. Power 105.1. The Breakfast Club. Envy. Angela Yee. And Charlemagne Tha God. Alright. Can we talk about how Envy tried to trick the whole room just now?

How did I trick the whole room? Because our guy Rupert came in here with three bags. Right. And I said, what's in the bags? And you said nuts. Right. And I was like, okay. And then you was like, do you want some? And I was just like, I didn't know where that was going, so I said no. But then when I went to go look in the bag, I thought it was boiled peanuts. You ain't know where that was going, so I said no. But then when I went to go look in the bag, I thought that it was boiled peanuts.

You ain't say that it was boiled peanuts. That's a distinction. What is boiled peanuts? It's one of the greatest delicacies created in human life. I see them all over New York City, but I never said let me get a bag of that. They got them all over. They got a big bag of boiled nuts all over the city. All over New York City?

Yes, I never tried them. I ain't never seen that. I see that down south all the time. That's one of my favorite snacks. Do you eat them whole or do you open them up? I really don't know. Yes, you should eat them whole. Try one.

Try one now. Take it. They're soft. The shells are very, very soft. Just throw like three or four in your mouth right now and just chew. I don't believe you. Okay. Let's get to the rumors.

Let's talk R. Kelly. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to him. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. All right. Well, according to Joycelyn Savage,

and she's one of R. Kelly's alleged sex victims, she says that she and R. Kelly are engaged. She wrote a letter to the judge ahead of R. Kelly's sentencing. You know, he was sentenced to 30 years in prison on sex trafficking charges. He does still have more charges pending. And she said, my name is Joyston Savage and I'm Robert Kelly's fiance. I'm writing this letter in support of Robert in advance of his sentencing so I can explain to the court that I'm not the victim that the government has portrayed me to be. My relationship with Robert is amazing.

He's the best thing that's ever happened to me. So she just asked for the court to take her words into consideration. All right. So I'm not sure if they're really going to get married. This was before his sentencing, but she did say she's his fiance. And congratulations to Brent Fias, amazing artist. And it looks like his album,eland is projected to make billboard 200 history they're saying that his album is going to debut at number one on the charts and that's going to be between 105 000 to 115 000 total album equivalent units and if that figure does hold up he would be challenging bad bunny for the number one spot and also chasing some history. So that would be

something that no R&B singer has done since Summer Walker is still over at album debut at number one. I didn't realize he was independent. Somebody told me he was independent. I'm not sure if Brent Fries is independent. Somebody told me that. That's amazing. Those numbers are amazing.

Even if you look at the numbers that Chris Brown did in the last couple of weeks. So the fact that he's a fairly new artist to a lot of people, that's amazing that he's going to be moving that many units. Yeah, so here is, in case you've never heard, and by the way, Brent Fires is an amazing artist. I think he's on lip service tomorrow too,

if you guys want to check that out. But here's a song, Gravity, featuring Tyler, the creator. You can really vibe out to his music. So congratulations to him. I think that is absolutely amazing. Salute, young king. Congratulations, young man. That's a great accomplishment.

Yeah, he is independent. He's independent. Let's go. All right. Now, Netflix has released another Dave Chappelle special. You know, they are standing by him. And this is all, remember that school that he went to, What's in a Name, a speech at Duke Ellington School of the Arts.

You know, they were going to name the theater after him. But at the end of the special, he did say that he did not want to have his name on that new theater. Yeah, I wouldn't call that a special. And one of the things that he. I watched it this weekend. I wouldn't call it a special. 39 minutes. Yeah, it's actually him.

It's his acceptance, I guess, acceptance speech for the school. It's not a special per se it's not special at all actually okay well here is what he had to say about leaving while he was at the height of his career on the Chappelle show and then I remember this is the single best

day of my career the Rick James episode of Chappelle show come out people were going crazy about the Rick James episode at Chappelle's Show would come out. People were going crazy about the Rick James episode. At the same time, the DVD for season one of Chappelle's Show dropped. It was the first time any television show had ever been sold off air. And it sold a million copies in the first day. It was unheard of.

To this day, nothing has sold more. All those great things happened, and my contract was up. Clearly, I was about to be rich, but it didn't work out. And I ended up doing something that no one had ever seen before, including myself. Maybe Prince is the only other guy that I've seen do this. Well, you just quit something that was popular when you're at the very top of it. I was sure I was being true to myself. All right.

So, yes. I mean, things apparently did work out for him, though, right? Cannot deny that. So, congratulations to Dave Chappelle. I had a chance to watch that, too. And I love how he left it open at the end where he was like, look, you know, the theater is called the Theater for Artistic Freedom and Expression.

But basically, when things cool down, don't be afraid to put the Dave Chappelle Theater for Artistic Freedom in expression. He's not going to argue that down. All right. And again, make sure you stream that Brent Fires album. It's absolutely amazing. And so I know you guys will enjoy it. If you haven't yet over the weekend, that's what I've been listening to.

Patty wants us to come eat breakfast at her crib. Have you reached back out to them, Eddie? I have. Well, she reached out to me, but I feel bad bringing my six kids to her crib and my kids running around. I'm not. I'm not going to feel bad about it at all.

I think she has plenty of space and she has a lot of kids over there all the time as a family member.

She'll be okay. I'm not going to feel bad at all. I love Patty. Patty said, Emory, you going to come? I said, yeah, but... You got to think about it.
