Starting point is 00:02:01 Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Hi, I'm Dani Shapiro, host of the hit podcast, Family Secrets. How would you feel if when you met your biological father for the first time, he didn't even say hello? And what if your past itself was the secret, and the time had suddenly come to share that past with your child? These are just a few of the powerful and profound questions we'll be asking on our 11th season of Family Secrets. Listen to season 11 of Family Secrets on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Starting point is 00:03:07 It's Tuesday. Yes, it's Tuesday. Good morning. Uncle Johnny made my dress that cheap spandex. She looks a mess. What's happening? How y'all feeling? I'm feeling great.
Starting point is 00:03:20 I am blessed, black, and highly favored, man. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. Man, I got smacked with inflation this morning. Something crazy. That's his name? That's his name? Yeah, that was his name. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:03:32 I pulled up to the gas station, and I said, let me get 30 on pump two. He put 30 on pump two, and it was still a quarter tank. There was no way I would have been able to get the working back. I thought gas prices had been dropping a little bit, though. Man, listen, that $30 did nothing. So then I had to put another $40. Now, what kind of car is this? This is a 2000 G-Wagon.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Well, I don't feel sorry for you. Yeah, I was like. What? It costs 22 years old. So what? Then I put $40 more, and I just got over a half tank. And I'm like, jeez. Why didn't you just fill your tank up?
Starting point is 00:04:02 You didn't have time. I just. That sounds like that took more time. I'm from the school where I just put $40 in and keep it moving. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life. You're driving around in a G-Wagon, which I'm sure costs a lot of money, and you're only putting $40 in your tank. Sounds to me like you can't afford a G-Wagon.
Starting point is 00:04:16 I only put $40 in any tank I drive. That's so stupid. It is. That's so dumb. But that's why I drive a Tesla. I love my Tesla. I plug it in and keep it moving. All right. Inflation smacked me this morning. I plug it in, keep it moving. All right.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Inflation smacked me this morning. I'm just telling you, just inflation. Gas price is expensive as hell. I thought gas was going down, though. I don't know, but it's still expensive. Gas is expensive. Yes, very expensive. It definitely is.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Goodness gracious. It 100% is. It's been expensive. Goodness gracious. But how you guys feeling? Not bad. You all right? Yeah, just been, listen.
Starting point is 00:04:44 Uncle Johnny made my dress that cheap spend that she looks up next. What's wrong with you, man? That record slaps, bro. What's wrong with you? That's heated, right? Ain't that heated off Beyonce albums? Yes, yes. That record slaps.
Starting point is 00:04:55 That's my favorite song off that album thus far. Oh, my goodness. It's a lot of them, though. I like that. I like that album a lot. All right. Well, we got a special guest joining us this morning. Is it Uncle Johnny?

Yes, and let's talk about the world's biggest four-day workweek trial run. Let's see how people were affected by having just a four-day workweek.

Starting point is 00:05:37 This is the biggest four-day workweek. We are in the world. Are we? We're part of the world? The biggest one they've ever had in the world. Oh, okay. All right. We should try that here, man.
Starting point is 00:05:47 I agree. We need it. Five days working makes no sense. Pointless. I feel like we kind of do that at times. Because nobody work on Friday. No way, really. You coast.

I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it.

Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tried my own country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong?

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.
Starting point is 00:09:06 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.

Starting point is 00:10:00 Hey, y'all. Nimany 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. 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. 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.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, everyone. This is Courtney Thorne-Smith, Laura Layton, and Daphne Zuniga. On July 8, 1992, apartment buildings with pools were never quite the same as Melrose Place was introduced to the world.
Starting point is 00:11:20 It took drama and mayhem to an entirely new level. We are going to be reliving every hookup, every scandal, every backstab, blackmail and explosion, and every single wig removal together. Secrets are revealed as we rewatch every moment with you. Special guests from back in the day will be dropping by. You know who they are. Sydney, Allison, and Joe are back together on Still the Place with a trip down memory lane and back to Melrose Place. So listen to Still the Place on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. ...and are doing better in their jobs.
Starting point is 00:12:06 So this could be something potentially that could be the norm. So they said, I find that same. I'm saying yes, we can, as opposed to no. Sorry, we can't. That's what Lisa Gilbert had to say. And she says her new routine is phenomenal. I can really enjoy my weekend now because I've got my Friday for my chores and my other bits and pieces.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Or if I just want to take my mom out for a walk, I can do that now without feeling guilty. I wonder how that would work. Because businesses still pay you, so you don't get paid for the fifth day and most people need the money. No, they said no pay cut. No pay cut?
Starting point is 00:12:38 Yeah. You only work four days a week in the same time slot? Only eight hours? Mm-hmm. Just imagine that people could be more productive during that time, time too because think about the amount of time that you're feeling burnt out and you're sitting there doing nothing because you're exhausted and you're just like i don't feel like doing this you're handling personal business while you're at work so maybe there's a chance that if you know you have to get the same amount of work done in a shorter amount of time
Starting point is 00:13:00 you could potentially be more productive wow who knew days off from work made people happy? Who knew days off from work makes you more mentally, emotionally, and physically happy? Wow. Think about people who just sit at work with nothing to do because they finish everything they have to do, but they have a certain amount of hours. They have to be there. Yeah, but then you got to do five days
Starting point is 00:13:19 worth of work in four days. Man, why are you fighting days off from work? Shut up. I'm just saying there's a lot. I bet you if you ask people, would you rather work five days or would you rather work more for those four days? Then you have an extra day off. Yeah, but you're doing the same amount of work, which is less time. Man, all we want is a day off. We don't even be knowing what 95% of these holidays are about, but if they tell us we
Starting point is 00:13:41 got a day off, we taking it. You right. Okay? It's racist out there that'll take Juneteenth off. Alright? You don't give a damn what the holiday is about. Just give us the day off. Now, a 28-year-old man in Ohio is leaving his job as a teacher
Starting point is 00:13:53 because he's getting paid more as a manager at Walmart. He announced this in a video that is now viral. Seth Gashorn is his name. He worked as a reading tutor and second grade teacher for six years. He said the chief reason that he did that is because of pay. It's far more money to be a manager at Walmart than it is to be a teacher.
Starting point is 00:14:13 I will never understand how dirty America does its veterans and its teachers, bro. Our teachers, bro, we take our kids to school and leave them with these individuals in the hopes that they pour into them and make them better people. Teachers should be some of the highest paid people on this planet. Okay? Especially in this country. Yeah. Come on, man. Think about it. You work at Walmart, you ain't got to deal with them crazy ass kids.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Then you get about 30% off, 25-30% off as an employee at Walmart. You do? Yes. Well, that's the beauty of being a teacher. Most people that are teachers are teachers because they just love pouring into these students. Correct. Which is all the more reason that they should be getting paid. I agree. You know what I mean? They should be making six-figure salaries
Starting point is 00:14:54 easily. Teachers? Teachers, bro. Not only are teachers teachers, they're babysitters essentially. That's what they are. You know what I mean? They teach and they watch the kids and make sure the kids are... People can't wait to send their kids to school. What other adult spends as much time with your children other than the parents than teachers during the school year? It's a travesty the way they treat teachers out here, bro.
Starting point is 00:15:15 All right. And California and Illinois have declared health emergencies yesterday in their states regarding monkeypox. So the governor's proclamation will accelerate the administration of vaccines and then the work of contact tracing and also prevention efforts. So it is now a state of emergency. All right, and that is your front page news. All right. Get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:15:39 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up right now. Phone lines are wide open. And again, 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up right now. Phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I'm darling. I'm darling.
Starting point is 00:15:52 Hey, what you doing, man? I'm darling. I'm calling you. This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, peace and blessings.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Good morning. We were just talking about you. Can I get some more of my test real quick? Mm-hmm. It's a suicide prevention. The number is 988. I just want to get some more of my test real quick. Suicidal thoughts going through my mind.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Who going to rescue me with these thoughts of mine i keep on searching yeah but i just can't find here come the devil lurking with all these land mines he said sure quit hesitating make up your damn mind i'm at a crossroad i need a lifeline i hear my son's voice in the back of my mind daddy it's okay and you're gonna be all right like how my family can come out of poverty let's talk about this come on guys everybody calm down everybody calm down he's going crazy everybody Everybody relax. Hello, who's this? Everybody calm down. Hi, good morning.
Starting point is 00:17:07 Hey, Cassandra? Yes, it's a pleasure to be here. Hey, Cassandra. I just wanted to know, hi, Breakfast Club, particularly you, Charlamagne, because I heard Ms. Clark say she gave you her personal phone number. She's the secretary of HUD. I want to know what is she going to do, and they admitted it in the National Housing Law Project survey, that we have rising eviction in
Starting point is 00:17:30 HUD assistant housing. That's people that live in housing like NYCHA, Newark Housing Authority, and I know people personally that have been put out, and they've been put out for the very reason that they admitted, because HUD guys did not follow their own rules. And they did not send out proper notice to these residents about court. So I would make them please call her and ask her, what are we going to do? How are we going to resolve it?
Starting point is 00:17:56 Are we going to reach out to these people and put them back in their houses because they admitted that they did something wrongly? Or are we going to let them continue to walk around homeless. Why have they been invicted people? Say that again? I said why have they been invicted people? They've been invicted them because because the moratorium is up now so they can bring people into court. Correct. So when they bring them into court first you gotta send the person to notice. So if the person don't get the notice, they can't not come to court.
Starting point is 00:18:28 And I know people personally, because they did not make it to court, Newark Housing Authority put them out of their housing. And we were just on a call with our assigned judge, Ms. Venable, last week. So they have this pilot program, but you're a year and a half late because these people are walking around homeless now. So if you admit that it's wrong, how are we going to fix it? I'm going to find out, but you know
Starting point is 00:18:54 they did just announce, they announced yesterday that HUD is doing $2.8 billion in grants for homeless services. So it's $2.8 billion in fresh funding for homeless services organizations across the country. Well, they finally opened up the courts because a lot of people haven't been
Starting point is 00:19:09 paying their rent. And not because they can't afford it, it's just because there's been a loophole where they didn't have to pay their rent. And they haven't been able to get out because the court hasn't been open. So I know a lot of people that are landlords have been actually losing their buildings because they can't pay the mortgage on them because people haven't been paying rents and people haven't been evicted. So I know like even a couple of my buildings, 60% because people haven't been paying rents and people haven't been evicted so I know like even
Starting point is 00:19:26 a couple of my buildings 60% of the people weren't paying rent and it wasn't because they weren't working because they weren't working but there was a loophole where they didn't have to pay and they just started opening up the courts with making people pay which is which is a crazy part but a lot of people have been losing their their homes and you know in their properties because tenants haven't been paying well but I hope HUD fixes that and because I heard about the money for grants to make sure that both the tenants and the mortgage owners can be okay.
Starting point is 00:19:50 They just granted $2.8 billion in grants for homeless services yesterday. I saw that. I don't know what that means. All right. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this.

Starting point is 00:28:41 We got rumors on the way. Yes, so Beyonce, she is confirming that she's going to be removing a lyric from her new album after some criticism that it's ableist and deeply offensive same thing lizzo did people gotta stop all right well we'll get to that next it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj mv angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club Yeah. Well, one of the tracks on Beyonce's Renaissance album, Heated, they had to make a change to it because of some issues. And this is the same thing that Lizzo went through
Starting point is 00:29:30 for using ableist language on her song, Girls. That's my favorite record on the album, by the way. And she updated the track after receiving criticism on which album? Beyonce or Lizzo? Beyonce's album, Heated. Uncle Johnny made my dress that cheap spandex. She looked a mess. All right, so here is the song, Heated.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Cool it down, down, down, my pretty. The bad, bad bitchy make the bad bitch glitchy. Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine. Liberated, living like we ain't got time. Yada, yada, yada, yada, yada, yada. Yada, yada, yada, bum, bum, caw, caw. Blessing on that ass. Glass on that ass.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Send me quick, girl, I need my glass. She was definitely spazzing. So the word spaz. And so back in June, Lizzo faced backlash for using that word as well. And Reps for Beyonce said in a statement to CNN, the word not used intentionally in a harmful way will be replaced. So we don't know when the new version of heated will become available, but she is changing that.
Starting point is 00:30:22 We really have to stop acting like words don't have more than one definition. Like, words matter, definitions matter, and as long as the word is being used in the proper context, it should not be offensive. Like, y'all mad at everybody but the dictionary and the thesaurus. Yeah, and I saw a lot of the Beehive were going crazy on social media that Beyonce actually is going to remove that word, and they're backlashing against the backlash. Yeah, And coming at Beyonce and Lizzo, that's easy.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Don't ask Beyonce and Lizzo to remove the word. Go ask Webster's as in the dictionary. You know you can't do that because it wouldn't make any logical sense. Where's your outrage for the people who actually created the English language? Now, disability advocate Hannah Deviney wrote in an opinion article in The Guardian, I'm so tired. Disabled people deserve better. I don't want to have this conversation again. And Warren Kerwin, who was a media manager at the UK Disability Equality Charity Scope, told Insider that removing the word matters because the use of the word can reinforce negative attitudes towards people
Starting point is 00:31:20 with disabilities. So when y'all going to attack the dictionary then? When y'all going to go after Webster's? When y'all going gonna go after thesauruses for having the word spaz in there? Spaz is a word that has multiple meanings. And out of all of those meanings, I never knew it was considered a slur until y'all went after Lizzo. Yeah, I didn't know. But once again, it has multiple meanings. And if Beyonce and Lizzo are
Starting point is 00:31:37 using it in the proper context, what's the problem? Well, people are offended. I think in the UK, it's just different than the united states too that word is a slur there but here it's not that's true and guess what in the uk guess what a cigarette is exactly you wouldn't say that over here they don't they wouldn't change it i'm gonna go over there and say hey stop calling cigarettes that word no they still do it regardless come on man all right now the dream, speaking of Beyonce, has given
Starting point is 00:32:05 Diane Warren a lesson after she questioned all of the songwriting credits on Beyonce's Renaissance project. She tweeted, how can there be 24 writers on a song? This isn't meant as shade, I'm just curious. And then she said, okay, it's probably samples that add up the amount of writers. Now the Dream
Starting point is 00:32:21 responded to that and he contributed to a lot of the album, by the Dreamers responded to that and he contributed to a lot of the album, by the way, and he went and said, you mean, how does our black culture have so many writers?
Starting point is 00:32:30 Well, it started because we couldn't afford certain things starting out, so we started sampling and it became an art form, a major part of the black culture, hip hop in America.
Starting point is 00:32:38 Had that era not happened, who knows? You good? By the way, I know it's not a one-on-one writing contest. You looking for from no one over here.
Starting point is 00:32:46 You don't want that smoke. And you know I love you, but come on. Stop acting like your records haven't been sampled. And then she responded, I don't mean that as an attack or as disrespect. I didn't know this. Thank you for making me aware of it. No need to be mean about it. How is she such a big songwriter but didn't know that?
Starting point is 00:33:01 My dumb ass knew that. Was it? We said that yesterday when we talked about the 24 writers it's probably a sample right yeah i mean i don't know what her situation is i guess he's saying in in hip-hop and that art form a lot more sampling goes on and that's why there's so many writers that contribute to that okay now ice tea has gotten the okay to open a recreational cannabis dispensary in Jersey City. So it's going to be called The Medicine Woman. It's slated to open later this year in a 5,000-square-foot retail space.
Starting point is 00:33:32 It's just a few miles from Midtown Manhattan. It'll have the best of New Jersey cannabis brands, according to the company, in a new release. I'm so excited. Drop on the Clues Bonds for Ice-T. Shout out to his partner. Great business to get in. He's actually a partner in that business. I met the woman who he partnered with this weekend.
Starting point is 00:33:51 She actually came to the real estate seminar. I'm looking for her name. She was telling me the grind that she had to do. Just so you know, she had to rent out that building for like two years. Because you have to have a building before you can actually get the license. Charisby. Charisby, that's what her name is. And she was telling me that she had to struggle because for two years she had to pay that
Starting point is 00:34:09 rent and not knowing if she could possibly get the license. And now that she got the license, now she has to go through, you know, buying a whole bunch of cannabis and supplies and all this other stuff. So it's a fight. It's a lot. But congratulations to Ice-T and that young lady. I support them. I'm going to support them so much, man.
Starting point is 00:34:26 I know the grind. And it's literally right through. There's a tunnel that goes to Jersey City from Manhattan. It's the first place you hit when you leave Manhattan. That's right. When you go through the Highland Tunnel. What's her name again? It's called the Medicine Woman.
Starting point is 00:34:37 No, what's her name? Charis B. Charis B, that's her name. All right. Charis, good morning. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. Yeah, she texted me.

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.
Starting point is 00:38:06 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 gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing.

Starting point is 00:40:02 Hey, everyone. This is Courtney Thorne-Smith, Laura Layton, and Daphne Zuniga. On July 8th, 1992, apartment buildings with pools were never quite the same as Melrose Place was introduced to the world. It took drama and mayhem to an entirely new level. We are going to be reliving every hookup, every scandal, every backstab, blackmail and explosion and every single wig removal together. Secrets are revealed as we rewatch every moment with you. Special guests from back in the day will be dropping by. You know who they are. Sydney, Allison and Joe are back together on Still the Place with a trip down memory lane and back to Melrose Place.
Starting point is 00:40:46 So listen to Still the Place on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts. We starting easy? All right. Well, Joe Biden announced yesterday that the U.S. has killed an al-Qaeda leader, Ayman al-Zawiri, in a drone strike in Kabul, Afghanistan, over the weekend. Here's what he had to say. The United States successfully concluded an airstrike in Kabul, Afghanistan, that killed the emir of al-Qaeda, Ayman al-Zawiri. You know, Zawiri was bin Laden's leader.
Starting point is 00:41:20 He was his number two man as deputy at the time the terrorists attacked 9-11. One of the most responsible for the attacks that murdered 2,977 people on American soil. For decades, he was the mastermind behind attacks against Americans, including the bombing of the USS Cole in 2000, which killed 17 American sailors and wounded dozens more. He played a key role, a key role in the bombing of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, killing 224 and wounding over 4,500 others. Why does it always feel like they're killing an al-Qaeda leader? It feels like they're always assassinating an al-Qaeda leader. How many al-Qaeda leaders is it? There's a lot.
Starting point is 00:42:03 There's a lot. Yeah. I have to know the benefits of being an al-Qaeda leader. People many al-Qaeda leaders is it? There's a lot. There's a lot. Yeah. I have to know the benefits of being an al-Qaeda leader. People move up the ranks when somebody gets killed. Clearly. I have to know the benefits because it seems to me the only benefit is death. Like, you know you're going to die once you get that job. Yeah, so he also continued to say,
Starting point is 00:42:16 we continue to mourn every innocent life that was stolen on 9-11 and honor their memories to the families who lost fathers and mothers, husbands, wives, sons, and daughters, brothers and sisters, friends and co-workers. It is my hope that this decisive action will bring one more measure of closure. All right, now Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has been suspended for six games, and that is for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy that is following accusations of sexual misconduct. So the judge, the disciplinary officer, Sue Robinson, made that ruling on Monday in a comprehensive 16-page report. She wrote that the NFL recommended Watson be suspended for the entire regular season
Starting point is 00:42:57 and postseason, but they did make that decision for six games. So that ruling did rely on 32 previous suspensions under the league's personal conduct policy since 2015. And in 21 of those 32 instances, the league suspended the player for six games. And so that's how they came to that decision. So I saw people arguing about whether that was enough time, talking about the NFL having issues with violence against women
Starting point is 00:43:26 and also not taking things like this seriously. But then I saw the people pointing out that this was not the NFL that gave this ruling. So he does have time to appeal if he chooses to. They have time until Thursday at 9 a.m. to file a written appeal of that ruling. All right, a 23-year-old man was recovered in Wake County, North Carolina, last week after local authorities say that he exited a plane in midair. What? Yes.
Starting point is 00:43:54 I saw that. And that was prior to an emergency landing. Per a report from the Associated Press, the individual has been identified as co-pilot Charles Hu Crooks. He died as a result of the exit, according to multiple reports. They're saying it was either a fall or a jump, but exact details remain under investigation. He did not have on a parachute at the time of his exit. They said one pilot is heard telling an air traffic controller that the plane had lost its right wheel after a prior landing attempt elsewhere.
Starting point is 00:44:22 The pilot is heard requesting permission to proceed to rally with the controller asking how they intended to land at the airport. They said, get as low as we can, and I guess we're going to put it on the belly. So they said just one pilot was aboard the plane once it made an emergency landing. That pilot was treated for minor injuries. The body of the co-pilot was ultimately discovered hours later, about 20 miles from the airport. I wonder if he was like afraid because he thought the plane was going to crash, so he decided, man, let me jump.
Starting point is 00:44:46 I'm going to take my chances. Yeah, let me take my chances of jumping. You don't want to die in a plane crash. No. That's what it looks like. That's what it sounds like. That's what it sounds like, right? Well, they said they are still investigating to find out what it is that happened.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Jesus Christ. God bless, man. And you know how they found the body? Local authorities were alerted to a resident who heard a loud noise near their backyard. So I guess that was... What, he fell? Yeah. Lord have mercy.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Goodness gracious. All right. Well, that is your Front Page News. Yeesh. All right. All right. When we come back, Chance the Rapper will be joining us. We're going to kick it with Chance when we come back
Starting point is 00:45:26 So don't move, it's The Breakfast Club, good morning The Breakfast Club Power 105.1 The Breakfast Club Envy, Angela Yee, and Charlamagne Tha God Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God We are The Breakfast Club, we got a special guest in the building. That's right.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Chance the Rapper. What's up, my brother? Why don't you give me an applause? Yo, what's up? I feel like I ain't seen you in a long time. How long have you been up here? It's been a minute. I feel like since before the pandemic. You done leaned out?
Starting point is 00:45:59 Do I look skinny? I was hoping I didn't look skinny. But yeah, I do. I know. How you been, though, man? What's your energy like?'ve been good yo I've been I've been traveling a lot I just got back from Ghana I went to Swiss or so that yeah we went to Venice Italy shot a video with Joey badass but yeah a lot of traveling we just got back from Atlanta tell me about Ghana cuz I know y'all took some kids yeah all right yeah so this yeah okay okay so Vic took me, my first time Nagana was in January. And basically, I just came out there to kind of like decompress and just like kind of like
Starting point is 00:46:35 kick it. But I ended up, so much happened. Like I got introduced to the art scene, met some of the biggest artists in the world out there because Ghana's got it on like the contemporary art scene right now. And ended up, you know, having a lot of fun because the clubs out there are insane I keep hearing that I'm going to December the super important part was like I did a lot of the education out there you went to the door no return I didn't go to Cape Coast I didn't get to check out Elmina Castle which I'm gonna do when I go back in in December and in January but I learned a lot about Kwame Nkrumah,
Starting point is 00:47:06 who's the first president of Ghana, right? And what I didn't know when I got there is Ghana's the first African country to gain its independence from colonialism. This is like in 57. So after that is when all the countries started being like, all right, English get out, French get out,
Starting point is 00:47:22 whatever, we becoming our own country. So they renamed themselves from the gold coast to ghana but all that happened because kwame and krumah came to the states and went to hbcu and learned about marcus garvey and garveyism and global blackness and the identity of being black people around the world and he came and like instituted that into the nation into the framework of like how everything was going to go. And it changed the whole world. After that, you see the civil rights movement in the States. You see the Black Panthers.
Starting point is 00:47:50 You see all these things that are coming out of this self-realized new identity. To this day, when you go to Ghana, you still feel that. They're the only African country with an Office of Diaspora and Affairs. The fastest pathway to citizenship. So you learn all this stuff and you realize how much it made an impact on the world
Starting point is 00:48:08 and it just makes you be like, okay, like we wouldn't have a euro. Like, you know how like they have, like, you know, I mean, I don't want to start
Starting point is 00:48:15 talking too crazy, but you know how people been, we've been trying to get like a decentralized dollar on the continent forever. And he wrote the book on that. And then after he was condemned
Starting point is 00:48:24 and called a communist on it, now you got $1 in Europe, like one singular form of currency. So it's just like- That's what Gaddafi was trying to do too. Yes, sir. What SBCU did he go to? Thank you for saying that.
Starting point is 00:48:34 What SBCU did he go to? Do you know? I heard what it was. I don't remember what it was, but I know it was in the States. It was a historically black college, but it gave him an understanding of like, his whole swag was
Starting point is 00:48:46 like we need a free africa and we need a global network where everybody in any country is connected you know i'm saying so you decided to bring a bunch of kids out there to learn to give yeah how many kids did you bring in it was nine kids so it was in collaboration with this other program it was it was through vix uh save money save lives foundation which does a lot of great work in chicago and abroad but basically yeah we brought out nine kids they were all either seniors in high school or freshmen in college and they were all in like different art backgrounds but they were like some that like were rappers some that were producers some that were visual artists some that were designers and i'm sure that changed their lives to that opportunity yeah we all need
Starting point is 00:49:23 that overall we just we just all need to go. And me and Vic had a bunch of conversations about that the first trip, and that's how we ended up getting to making our own festival out there. The Black Star Line Festival. Thank you for just announcing that. Garvey Inspire. That's Garvey Inspire. So, yeah, so me and Vic basically had a conversation,
Starting point is 00:49:44 and we just started to recognize, like, me and him been doing this together since the beginning. We did our first show, first tour together in 2013. And right after that, like, blew up for both of us. We started traveling, you know, going around the country, going to other countries, and we in Europe and Asia and Australia and da-da-da, da-da-da, and small markets, doing, like, every possible space but Africa.
Starting point is 00:50:06 You know what I'm saying? And then you get out there and you realize how the appetite for it exists. You know what I'm saying? And the infrastructure exists, but they just don't send us there. So it's really like we got to bring ourselves there. I want you to expound on why it's important to have a connection with Mother Africa outside of the arts. Just why should black Americans have a connection with mother Africa? All right. So that's a, that's a deep thing, right?
Starting point is 00:50:28 The connection that I'm talking about is not very much. So land-based it's not even specifically just about having a connection to Africa. It's about us having a connection globally. So obviously Africa is the beginning of everything everything but at this point we're everywhere and we need connectivity not just with africa but amongst ourselves but to me it's like when you start thinking about it as like we need to go back to africa like physically there's just so many things wrong with that that i can't even explain all of them but it's like it's really about just having the connection you can have like a connection that's deeper than just like knowing
Starting point is 00:51:11 of culture in other places like it's not just about knowing the dances other places or like visiting constantly it's about like knowing that we are each other so yeah january 6th black star square ghana west africa and the city of ourra. We're going to do the Black Star Line Festival. Have you done your ancestry test? I don't be trying to give people my DNA. I don't know. But I know I'm black. Now why do you have two Afro pics, Chance?
Starting point is 00:51:36 Your hair's not that big. Because I'm so black. It is. It's getting long, yo. Not two Afro pic worthy. It's really just because I'm so black. I gotta have one in the side of my cap and then one in my hand when I talk to my b****. Now, I asked you earlier if you stopped smoking, so you completely stopped smoking. I'm stocking up on these illegal Juul pies because they illegal now. So if anybody has some, let me know.
Starting point is 00:52:01 Is that an act of protest for Brittany Griner? Is that what you're doing? It is. No, this isn't weed, but yeah, I'm act of protest for Brittany Griner? Is that what you're doing? It is. No, this isn't weed, but yeah, I'm always actively protesting for Brittany Griner and the U.S. just needs to hurry up
Starting point is 00:52:10 and get this over with because it's ridiculous. Yeah, talking to you, Joe Biden, listen to this. I'm listening. I'm just listening.
Starting point is 00:52:19 No, no. Not straight up. Okay. All right, we got more with Chance to Rap and when we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club
Starting point is 00:52:25 good morning morning everybody it's DJ Envy Angela Yee Charlamagne Tha Guy we are the Breakfast Club we're still kicking it with Chance the Rapper
Starting point is 00:52:32 Yee alright so let's talk about the highs and the lows that's the song that you have with Joey Badass and how you're actually rolling out I guess an album
Starting point is 00:52:40 is on the way yeah so a visual art along with this project I don't think you're supposed to smoke in here, Chance. I didn't see him do nothing. Yeah, don't stitch on me.
Starting point is 00:52:48 I didn't see you do nothing. I didn't see him do it. I don't know. I didn't see nothing. You've been on my ass, Joe. The gum, man. I can't smoke. All right, look.
Starting point is 00:52:57 So the highs and the lows, that was a crazy joint. I was just saying we went to Venice, Italy and shot the video. But yeah, that song just like Child of God and just like A Bar About a Bar.
Starting point is 00:53:07 I've been trying to like make my art a little more easy to or like layered in the ways that you could take it in. You know what I'm saying? I know that you're big on contemporary art. Like I've been working with these different, you know, fine artists to try and like translate my music outside of just like you know like people typically do cover art it's one piece for like 16 songs 20 songs and it's like hard to like create a visual language like in that space for all these different ideas so now I'm trying to do them one by one so each song will have an accompanying visual accompanying piece that's birthed out of conversations that I have with these artists so you you ain't just rapping to rap.
Starting point is 00:53:46 When I heard a bar by the bar, I'm like, okay, it's dope, but he seemed like he just flexing his lyrical exercise. That's my artistry. You know, there's blacksmiths and locksmiths, and I'm a wordsmith. Like, I am the rapper. You practice. You study the craft. The craft. When you hear some of the music that you hear now, do you just
Starting point is 00:54:02 get disgusted then? Because you can tell artists are not studying and practicing. Oh, no't get disgusted so i'm an artist right i'm one of many artists and there's so many different kinds and so many different mediums and genres but i am the rapper so when it comes to like music and i listen to stuff like i can enjoy music for a million different reasons i don't get i definitely don't get disgusted by it and also like i'm in a very like good space to be about to drop what i'm about to drop because kendrick just dropped so it's like he's kind of like prepping the culture to like listen and dig in and that's are you gonna be that vulnerable i don't think that that's my that's my swag like firstly like i think like everybody is their own artist and i think kendrick
Starting point is 00:54:47 since day one has been like extremely open my thing is like i can find a subject matter and attack it from multiple different points and really dissect it and really learn about it and about myself and like the process of doing it and i can speak to it in enough ways that's going to reach people that i grew up with people that found me along the way and people that have never heard of me so like where it does like help me out is that kendrick is a wordsmith kendrick is ill with flows kendrick is super black and kendrick is somebody that transcends age and race and all that stuff and so like in those spaces we we have similarities and we're both the other thing that i almost forgot is we're both disruptors like when we come in a space it has to mold around us more than we have to mold
Starting point is 00:55:41 around it now and i like the line you say in highs and lows. You say you gave all your vices a call. Let's get together. What did you learn from that meeting of your vices? You learn it's okay, especially when you're like trying to like live within doctrines of like your morals, your religion, your, you know, who you are in your community
Starting point is 00:55:59 or in your household or whatever. It's easy to like come to a low space and only be able to focus on the lows sometimes go outside if you're gonna cry you might as well cry at the club no y'all don't feel me on that one no don't cry at the club i was like i was going on a riff i thought i was gonna take off but y'all didn't feel me on that one? All right, here's another one. I don't know if you should cry at the club. Here's another one. Like, nobody's perfect, and you can succeed in, like, getting, hmm, how's the best way to put this? Have you gotten caught up in your image, Chance? Like, did you feel like you had a squeaky clean image?
Starting point is 00:56:36 Yeah, I feel like I got to make it out of this image, because I'm not nobody, but the rapper. Like, that's really who I am, and, like, even though I do good stuff. Did y'all purposely put this water that says positivity in front of me? Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, yeah, no. I take this water every day. My fault. No, I'm not caught up in it. Do you feel like you have to slap another rapper at an
Starting point is 00:56:56 award show to get rid of the good guy image? Or radio personality? No, I'm not really fighting any image. I guess I'm just trying to be myself. But it is difficult. I feel like y'all got to feel it, too, because y'all are personalities. Y'all are important people that people run up to and probably ask for pictures and think of a certain way and talk about when you're not talking. I think the difference is I've I've clearly I've never had the image of being perfect. You know what I'm saying? You have had the image of being like squeaky clean. Good guy.
Starting point is 00:57:25 I don't know about squeaky clean. Absolutely. Even when you first met her. Compared to other rappers. Compared to other rappers. I don't know if you know about acid rappers. Compared to other rappers, maybe. Good role model.
Starting point is 00:57:37 But that might not be the totality of you. No, no. Nobody will ever understand the totality of me. Not even my mother. I think I do get a little bit frustrated sometimes when I understand other people's perception of me and it doesn't line up with how I see myself. Well, how do you see yourself? I see myself as a great father. I see myself as, I don't want to say a good rapper because I keep saying I'm the rapper, but I see myself as the dude that was purposed to do what I do.
Starting point is 00:58:06 Yeah, I see myself as a black man and I see myself as a person that loves God. You know what I'm saying? But you also know your shadows. Yeah. I'm aware of everything that I've done, but like, what's cool is that I'm gonna walk out of this interview when this video cuts off and I'm gonna still be me.
Starting point is 00:58:22 That's right. And you're damned if you do, damned if you don't, because you're like the first... They gave you flack for saying you love your wife, bro. You gotta think about that. You became a joke on the internet because you expressed love for your queen. I think that was the angle that they took, but I don't think that was the issue.
Starting point is 00:58:38 And I think at the end of the day, that'll be something that I will always carry as a cool thing thing so i think i'm grateful that i am who i am and that i every day that i learn more about who i am and i'm grateful that i can always lean on my pen because that is unquestionable what was the issue you said that you know you didn't think it was people mad at you because you said you love your wife. You said you don't think that was the issue.
Starting point is 00:59:07 What do you think the issue was? No, I think there was just a culmination of things. For one, I did not do the project I think that people thought I was going to make. They expected something different. And I think also the last projects that I put out, it was a different space, right? Like, I've never had an album come out that
Starting point is 00:59:25 nobody didn't hate on. People hated on A$AP. Folks sat in this chair called me a weirdo on this show before. Like when I was, when I first dropped A$AP, like none of my projects have been other than the Lil B project. That's the only project that I got out that I never saw anybody hate on, but they probably will now that they know exists like but like there was no troll community at the time but that's just one part of it also like i've told y'all how i feel about spiritual warfare and what i say and i've watched that i put out that was not necessarily of it do well and things that i put out that was more in line what i believe in and and not do well there's so many things that were at play but but also I still have to chalk it up to that is my life.
Starting point is 01:00:11 I don't run from it at all. Dave Chappelle said something to me that was so important around that time. I came and saw him and he said, comedy specials, albums, things like that. These are yearbook photos. It doesn't define who you are. You take one and then next year you come back and you take another one. You know what I'm saying? It just records who you are at that moment. And the culmination at the end of your life, all these things together will be who you are, but it's just a moment in time. And so I recognize
Starting point is 01:00:39 that moment. And I look at that picture and I can remember the joy that I had in making it. And I can remember everything that I felt after I put it out too. And without those things together, you can't make the highs and the lows. I'm sorry. I just smacked that at the end. I did this and then did this and then set the highs and the lows for Joey Badass out right now. All right. We got more with Chance to Rap.
Starting point is 01:01:02 And when we come back, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charapper when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's DJ Envy Angelou Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Chance the Rapper. Charlamagne. How hard is it to not feed into criticism you may see yourself online? Because there's
Starting point is 01:01:16 a lot of chatter online that they like to say Chance the Rapper fell off. That's their language. Man, to me it's like I could either agree with it or I could live my life, right? If I agree with it, then that means the breakfast club fell off. Because y'all don't have people that fell off sitting in a chair, I don't think, usually. And so I feel like I got to stay on my path.
Starting point is 01:01:37 F***ers were saying I fell off when I was in high school. I made four mixtapes. F***ers were telling me in at high school your last tape was better I'm like I'm 15 I can joke about it but it's yeah but it is it is tough but it's like what can I say tell people that
Starting point is 01:01:55 my feelings are hurt I don't know it's like I could the best thing that I could do is like man when I get up with Vic and we just go and we just write and we just make it's so undeniable I'm so good at rapping I'm sorry I keep saying that but it's just like at this point I gotta put the words on the screen because my really loving that it gives people goosebumps so I'm like I could listen to people that that think about artists like they're pokemon cards like these commodified trading cards
Starting point is 01:02:28 it's like oh your 2k rating just went down like them because these is lame as hell like they've never been on if i fell off at least i was on you know what i'm saying sorry like i'm getting into my bag now but like once i start to think about it's like man this life is amazing like i'm still friends with all the people that i grew up with and they are very very proud of me and there's always something raw going on even when i'm not rapping i'm doing something cool we got we just celebrate it one year of books and breakfast we do a program every other saturday in the summer where we have families come in and we just do like a family day for them but it's all based on reading so we give them some free books i read a family day for them, but it's all based on reading.
Starting point is 01:03:05 So we give them some free books. I read like two stories to the kid, but it's all based off of the free breakfast and lunch program that the Black Panthers did in Chicago. My mom was in that program. She was a little girl. I could talk about that forever, but just saying like, that's some raw ass shit.
Starting point is 01:03:19 A nigga on the internet that's telling me I fell off could never even think to do that shit, let alone pull it off for a whole year. Yeah, there's nothing more satisfying than when you're able to do things that really matter. That impact people's lives. And not just music, but just really tangible things for people. Yeah, no, that's what me and Reese always talk about. We trying to do raw shit and we trying to be sustainable.
Starting point is 01:03:44 The pieces that I'm making the pieces that i'm making right now they're physical art pieces they're gonna last for however long the art lasts are they gonna be nfts also no nfts that's what that's what nft stands for is that i'm talking about a real piece of art that could live in a museum on somebody's wall forever. Can people buy those pieces? They could buy a poster. The artist owns these pieces and everything that I've done. I don't own the physical artwork at all.
Starting point is 01:04:14 I actually don't even own the copyright to the piece. I just license it for my music. But I'm trying to also empower these artists so that when they go back to Venice, be a Nale, niggas got to talk to them like they chanced the rapper. But I was saying the thing about the physical art piece because our songs are important. I'm speaking for all artists right now, for most artists. When we go in and we make something,
Starting point is 01:04:32 and then we decide to put it out for people to listen to, to have, and create memories to, that shit means something to us. And at this point, that shit only lives on Apple. That shit only lives on Spotify. So I'm trying to create things that people can have. talking about how I fell off. There you go.
Starting point is 01:04:47 What do you think that rhetoric derives from? I don't know. I'm that Joe. Is there any artist that nobody says that about though? Do you never? I'm from Chicago. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Chicago slang.
Starting point is 01:04:59 You thought I was calling you Joe Budden? I didn't know. Joe Biden? I hadn't heard of the Chicago slang. No, I'm saying I'm that nigga, Joe, as in, like, who do you know that did it like this? You know what I'm saying? I don't even got to talk about what I did or how I did it.
Starting point is 01:05:12 I'm just saying I am. Not even 30 years old yet. You think it's backlash to that, though? Backlash to Chance D? Of course, man. There's always going to be backlash. There's always going to be backlash to that. Best new Grammy artist, independent.
Starting point is 01:05:23 Hey, man. He's not really independent. He's got major backing on the low. the low on the super low it's gotta be so low i'm not on nobody's roster everybody's on my roster how about it and and the crazy thing is i began one that's just one of my favorite lil wayne's lines i just had to say that but i just gotta say i love the energy that you're giving me right now it's pumping pumping me up because it's like, man, I come from open mics at libraries. Like I printed my own tickets. I made fake tickets before where I rented out a venue and there was no ticket service.
Starting point is 01:05:57 And I just printed tickets out and sold them for ten dollars a piece, sold out my own show. Like I really made this materialize. And so it's like, falling off has to be based off somebody else's perspective. And I can't make nobody feel how they want to feel. Like, how I want them to feel. Like, not only have I done it, not only am I the first, sometimes I'm the only. And every time I'm the best. So if you've got to be either the first, only, or best,
Starting point is 01:06:28 and a lot of times I'm all three. My last three pieces, five stars. I ain't seen nobody not like the highs and lows. Not one person. Find me a person and I'll smack their ass. You say I need to smack somebody? Find me a nigga that don't like the highs and the lows. Psst.
Starting point is 01:06:42 And also, Child of God. Bro, that shit is at Art Expo. Like, nobody doesn't like Child of God. Nobody doesn't like a highs and the lows. Psst-ah. And also, Child of God. Bro, that s*** is at Art Expo. Like, nobody doesn't like Child of God. Nobody doesn't like A Bar About a Bar because it's artistry. But we know that's not true. Who? You don't like A Bar About a Bar?
Starting point is 01:06:53 No, I dig him. I'm about to say, what's up? It's not true. Of course there's somebody that doesn't like it. No. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:07:00 That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. Okay. The song's called A Bar About a Bar. Check out the video. Cinematography and direction. Talk that. I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. The song's called A Bar About A Bar. Check out the video. Cinematography and direction. Talk that. I'm not. And I don't ever get loud here. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:07:11 You gotta see this, Angela. I'm sorry you had to see this. You're setting your social media up for failure with this. I don't know. Even if they really like it, they're gonna say they don't like it. Look, you know what's gonna happen? What was the first thing you said? Even if they what? Even if they like it,
Starting point is 01:07:26 even if they really like it, because that's what's going to happen. Cause it's art, man. I'm a wordsmith. That's what I do for a living. And I, and I'm very good at it to the point that I've played everywhere.
Starting point is 01:07:38 And now I'm bringing everybody to Ghana. Cause I can, I know how to talk that talk. My dad calls it the the gift of gab have you ever heard that before yes yeah that's what that's how I ended up in this chair today yeah what's your relationship with Kanye my relationship with Ye is I love Ye I'm just like everybody else we all love Ye like he's exhausting at times yes yes yes if he's your friend you're most of
Starting point is 01:08:04 your friends are exhausting and obviously without it needing to be said my friend has mental wellness issues just like i do just like a lot of people do and a thing happened where when i went to go check on him and he was going through an episode somebody filmed it and dropped it and And then crazier than that, somebody changed the words from saying, what did he say? He said, I'm your elder. You pulled the same at All Star. Sit your ass down and listen to the album or leave.
Starting point is 01:08:37 And they changed it to say, your motherfucking album flopped. F*** it up, Nick. They suck. That's the internet for you. No, man. The internet for you. They put a dub over it. No, they didn't put a internet for you. No, man. The internet for you. They put a dub over it. No, they didn't put a dub.
Starting point is 01:08:47 They just put like, you just put little subtitles. But you see the original video has no subtitles, right? But it doesn't matter. F*** us could do what they want. I'm Chance the Rapper. I know you heard of me.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Come on. You just sounded like Kanye. Yeah, I sounded like Kanye. No, I'm from, I'm really from Chicago. I'm really from 79th. I really be in the city consistently. And when I'm there, I make an impact.
Starting point is 01:09:11 And the, whatever picture people want to paint on me is fine. They're not as good at painting pictures as I am. Was there ever a moment where you regretted staying like independent? You ever feel like maybe I should have took that back? All the time. All the time. Cause I'm spending my own money all the time
Starting point is 01:09:26 but you're making a lot more than you would I'm making a lot more I'm keeping a lot more and I'm also like completely in control of my destiny so there's nobody
Starting point is 01:09:34 that I could be upset with other than me if things don't work out and I love that when is the album coming out I don't have I don't have a date for it
Starting point is 01:09:42 that I'm gonna say right now is it done hell no you got a title yes you can't say it right I'm going to say right now. Is it done? Hell no. You got a title? Yes. You can't say it right now. You going to tell us? I was going to say it on Fallon,
Starting point is 01:09:51 but I said it on The Breakfast Club. F*** that s***. No, I'm not going to say f*** Fallon. I love Demi Fallon. Bring me back. Yeah, it says... All right. Hey, they have a new album. It's coming out soon.
Starting point is 01:09:59 Chance the Rapper's Starline Gallery. Starline Gallery. I don't like how you was going to say it on The White Man Show first. But you see going to say it on the white man show first. But you see how I switched it up. You switched it up. I feel like I already saw that on Genius.
Starting point is 01:10:08 The pic started spinning in circles and I was like. What'd you say? I feel like I already saw that with the whole track listing. You did. I just never announced it like on a show before. Is that going to be the name of a gallery in Chicago you open? An art gallery? I'm anti-galleries.
Starting point is 01:10:21 But I am going to do a show. I'm going to do an exhibition. Okay. I'm anti-galleries just like I'm anti to do a show. I'm going to do an exhibition. I'm anti-galleries just like I'm anti-labels. Y'all will find out, man. It's a lot of crazy parallels between the art world and how they do rap. Very deep, Joe. They be
Starting point is 01:10:33 getting over on it. But it's all coming to an end. I'm about to help everybody commercialize and capitalize without having to be capitalist. So, let's go. Ooh, I like that. There you have it. It's Chance the Rapper. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Starting point is 01:10:53 On the Breakfast Club. Man, unfortunately, Drake has tested positive for COVID. And due to that, he has to reschedule his show with Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj. He posted, I am truly devastated to say that I tested positive for COVID and due to that he has to reschedule his show with Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj. He posted, I am truly devastated to say that I tested positive for COVID and the Young Money reunion show scheduled for tonight is being rescheduled to the soonest date possible. I will keep
Starting point is 01:11:14 the city posted and share the new date whenever we have it locked. Until then, I hope everyone stays safe and healthy and I love you all. I am so sorry for letting you down on our weekend together and the moment I test negative, I will give you everything I got on stage except the COVID. Well, that's honest to him.
Starting point is 01:11:30 Because I'm sure Drake could have got a fake COVID test if he wanted to. He just got on there and did it anyway. And still went on that stage and did his thing. I mean, that is in Toronto, right? Unless he was feeling a little under the weather. True. You know, in which case he couldn't perform. But you also have to be responsible. But I was telling Charlam under the weather. True. You know, in which case he couldn't perform. But you also have to
Starting point is 01:11:46 be responsible. But like I was telling Charlamagne the other day, I've been sick the last four or five days. I keep testing myself because I'm thinking it's COVID but you forget that people just get a cold. Like nobody talks about just a cold anymore. Yeah. I felt the same way I've been dealing with bronchitis but I don't trust
Starting point is 01:12:01 testing yourself. You know how people can test themselves? Well, you test yourself and if it comes back positive, then you go and get a PCR test. I don't trust me because I don't trust testing yourself. You know how people can test theyself? Well, you test yourself, and if it comes back positive, then you go and get a PCR test. I don't trust me, because I don't go up that deep. We don't believe it. Don't look at me like that. All right, now, Drake also reunited with his first girlfriend, Keisha Shante, at the October World Weekend. You know, Kiki. Everybody was saying that was Kiki in the song.
Starting point is 01:12:23 And he actually brought her on stage. I used to get in my mom's car i used to drive all the way to the west of the sauna right here you feel me so i have to personally introduce her this is my first girlfriend i ever had in my life a real legend somebody i love with all my heart make some noise for keisha shantay All right. She also was able to perform some of her songs. She said that she dropped in her teen years. And so it made her soul very happy to be on that stage. And she said it was the most heartfelt and meaningful introduction she's ever had. That's dope.
Starting point is 01:13:00 Remember, she was also a host on 106 and Park. I did see the picture yesterday. I don't remember her as a host, but yeah, I heard that. All right. Now, Nicki Minaj went on live to address some allegations that were happening. Somebody who was claiming to be an ex-assistant named Kate Miller went on social media and was talking about her tax refunds and says that she owed the IRS $173 million since 2016. People were, of course, saying she would have gone to jail if that was true, if she owed IRS $173 million since 2016.
Starting point is 01:13:26 People were, of course, saying she would have gone to jail if that was true, if she owed that much money to the IRS. That's a lot of damn money. I didn't believe that when I saw that either. As soon as I saw that, I actually was like, that's not true. Right. There was all kinds of things that they posted regarding Ariana Grande and Rihanna
Starting point is 01:13:42 and Beyonce and Jay-Z. Well, here's Nicki Minaj going live to respond to some of these things. My assistant, y'all, they went and told everybody that it is true how $173 million to the IRS. And I hooked up Tay. Oh, my God. Tay is so uncomfortable around the man I'm married because he's so... And Tay don't ever like to be around him. And Tay was calling that assistant, saying, begging the assistant to stop.
Starting point is 01:14:12 Y'all, every day I learn that y'all getting dumber and f***ing dumber. I have to agree with her on that because I'm going to tell you something. Ain't no way in hell they letting anybody owe them $173 million. The IRS? For six years? Y'all got damn much. Now, as far as this woman, Kate Miller, the picture that was used in the profile picture, Kate Miller is not a real person, but they said that picture belongs to Megan Feldman
Starting point is 01:14:41 Betancourt, who is a senior director of digital strategy and content at Ground Floor Media and Center Table. So that's the picture they use along with a fake name. I don't think people understand money, man. I really don't. Because there's no way in hell you would have actually believed that any human on this planet, anybody, would owe $173 million to the IRS for six years. And the IRS wouldn't have them under the jail somewhere. Yeah, but the bigger problem is somebody can make up a story and the media just goes with it.
Starting point is 01:15:06 That's right. We don't know who this person is. Nobody double checks it. Nobody does anything. Oh, my gosh, we just report a story, which is stupid. You know why? Because what does your Uncle Charlotte always tell y'all? Nobody cares about the truth when the lie is more entertaining.
Starting point is 01:15:19 Yes, respect. Also, this poor woman, Megan, whose picture was being used, I'm sure they were probably attacking her, but she had nothing to do with anything. Imagine you wake up, your picture's just being used all over social media. I'm not clearing up no rumors unless people say I don't like coleslaw. You like coleslaw? I do like coleslaw.
Starting point is 01:15:35 But doesn't it have mayonnaise in it? A little bit. It's just enough. You like coleslaw? That's interesting. So you like mayonnaise? No. I've told y'all a million times that it's not about mayonnaise.
Starting point is 01:15:44 It's about the amount of mayonnaise. You just need just the right amount. Just a tad bit. You don't like coleslaw? No. I hate coleslaw. Really? It's disgusting.
Starting point is 01:15:52 I hate when they, I don't even want it touching my food. Yeah, me too. I'm not going for it. I'm not running up to the coleslaw like, oh, give me some coleslaw. But if it's some on the plate, I'll eat it. With extra mayonnaise? No. Not extra mayonnaise. Coleslaw. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. Just the plate, I'll eat it. With extra mayonnaise? No, not extra mayonnaise.
Starting point is 01:16:06 Cold slow. All right, well, that is your rumor report. Just to write around the cold slow. I lost a little bit of respect for you. I gained it early when you said deep, but now it's taking away when you said cold slow. All right, well, you know, I'll give you an anal swab later for a COVID test. You'll get that. You'll give me that respect back, won't you, King? No, I'm good.
Starting point is 01:16:22 King. No. King. Who you giving your donkey to? King! No! Who you giving your donkey to? Four after the No. Who you giving your doggy to? Four after the hour, let's talk meth addicts, why don't we?
Starting point is 01:16:29 Okay? People out there have problems, and you know what? When you don't deal with your problems, the universe will make you deal with your problems, okay? You cannot run from your issues, and this is a prime example. We'll talk about it four after the hour. All right. We'll get to that next.
Starting point is 01:16:43 This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same when it's time to get with someone special the best way to do it is with magnum large size condoms that gold foil wrapper is a badge of honor and it means you're protected and you take care of things with comfort except no substitutes bring the pleasure with the gold standard. Magnum. Large size condoms. Yeehaw. It's time for donkey of the day.
Starting point is 01:17:08 I'm a big boy. I can take it if you feel I deserve it. You can take it? I know Charlamagne Thaigro has some funny shit. Say out of the mouth. I just gotta say something you may not agree with. I mean, I mean. Who's getting that donkey?
Starting point is 01:17:17 That donkey. That donkey. Donkey. Donkey. Donkey. Donkey. Donkey. Donkey of the day right here.
Starting point is 01:17:22 It's a breakfast club, bitches. You can call me the donkey of the day, but like, I mean no harm. Yeah, it's donkey of the day for Tuesday, August 2nd. Goes to a 58-year-old man named Brian Gilgrid. Brian is from Camille, Idaho. And he was arrested for possession of meth. Attempted destruction of evidence. Driving in possession of an open container of alcohol.
Starting point is 01:17:42 Resisting and obstructing an officer. And possession of paraphernalia. Basically, he was effed up, zooted, blasted, blitzed, bombed, loaded, high, spaced out, plastered, high as an unidentified flying hypersonic drone from China or Russia. Now, we all know people don't make good decisions when they are on drugs. Okay, and the reality of the situation is there is no good ending for people that do drugs okay those stories never end well unless they go get the help they actually need when i say never i mean never it's the story as old as morgan freeman you use you lose period
Starting point is 01:18:18 and this guy brian lost see brian was out in these streets, okay, trying to enjoy his cookies, his cotton candy, his scooby snacks when a deputy on a routine patrol stopped his vehicle for a traffic violation. Now, when you're getting fried, okay, when you're tweaking, nothing blows you high like those blue lights of the law behind you. Well, Brian did what any self-respecting drug user would do when they are pulled over by the police. He tried to toss his stash he got out of his vehicle and walked towards a riverbank and he tried to throw his white cross into the river now we've heard of people making offerings to nature okay we've heard of people making offerings to the sea i've given offerings to nature uh especially to the ocean salute to the good sister anita kopax dropping the clues bombs for anita kopax offer of the great book
Starting point is 01:19:03 shallow waters a love letter to Yemiya. Go get that wherever you buy books. Amazon is a great place to start. Yemiya is often represented as a mermaid, but she's, you know, the great mother of us all and represents Mother Earth, the life giver. So one time we were in Miami and Anita had us giving offerings to Yemiya, you know, seashells, lighting candles, incense, flowers. It's a lot of ways to give offerings to the sea. I guess Brian Gilgert was trying to make an offering to the river because he attempted to toss his meth into the river. Well, Mother Nature said, F that.
Starting point is 01:19:34 You buck, we buck back. Because when Brian attempted to throw that meth into the river, the meth bounced off a tree and did not go into the water. It bounced right back to his ass. Damn it, man. That's right. That's right. This might be the second greatest bounce back this year right after Klay Thompson.
Starting point is 01:19:52 Okay? Can you imagine the horror that Brian Pookie Gilbert must have felt when he went to toss his meth into the river and Mother Nature said, return the cinder? Mother Nature said, no, no, no. You can keep that we good and swatted that meth back like Giannis if this isn't a sign from God to change your life we all ask for signs we ask for signs all the time this is clearly one of them Brian okay God said nope you can't run from your problems anymore. You're going to deal with your issues. All right?
Starting point is 01:20:26 This is a prime example that running away from your problems is a race you'll never win. Please give Brian Gilgert the biggest E-Hawk. Now, can we talk Coleslaw? No. We can't talk Coleslaw? That's disgusting. What are you going to talk about Coleslaw? I can't be the only person that just likes a can we talk coleslaw? No. We can't talk coleslaw? It's disgusting. What are you going to talk about coleslaw? I can't be the only person that just likes a little bit of coleslaw.
Starting point is 01:20:48 I don't want no plate of coleslaw, but just a little bit of coleslaw when it's nice and crunchy on your plate. You don't like coleslaw at all? I can't believe you had the nerve to dish chicken salad, but you like coleslaw. Well, chicken salad is trans tuna. What'd you say, man? What's the thing Caucasian people eat at barbecues? Coleslaw. No, besides col you say, man? What's the thing Caucasian people eat at barbecues? Coleslaw.
Starting point is 01:21:05 No, besides coleslaw. Ass? What? Caucasian people eat potato salad. You don't like potato? What do you mean Caucasian people
Starting point is 01:21:13 eat potato salad? Black people? What do we eat? What are you saying, Mr. Dominican man? Potato salad is amazing. It got to be macaroni salad. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:21:22 I don't eat potato salad. Potato salad. I don't eat coleslaw. I don't eat potato salad. You don't like potato salad? No. Oh, y'all bugger. Too much goddamn mayonnaise.
Starting point is 01:21:28 That's the whole point. You don't put a lot of mayonnaise in it. You need just the right amount of mayonnaise. All I got from this is that you do like mayonnaise. And you do eat ass. I said, what is the one thing Caucasian people eat at the barbecue? You say ass. What barbecue are you going to?
Starting point is 01:21:42 We're like, what barbecue? We're like, where's this barbecue? Let's stay on topic. Let's stay on topic. Let's stay on topic. I asked you a question. what barbecue? We're like, where's this barbecue? Let's stay on topic. Let's stay on topic. I asked you a question. You say yes. I said, where's the barbecue? That's all I want to know.
Starting point is 01:21:50 All I'm saying is there's nothing wrong with a little bit of coleslaw. Just enough. 800-585-1051. Yes. We asking people, do they eat coleslaw? Yes. I can't be the only person. I hate when they put coleslaw in my food.
Starting point is 01:22:02 I don't think you've ever tried it. I think that's a thing that we all felt at some point. But there was a point in my life where I was like, why do I avoid this? And then I ate it, and I actually was like, oh, this is all right. I don't even like it near my food. Really? Like, it touches my burgers or touches my shrimp or touches my stuff. Keep it in that little container.
Starting point is 01:22:17 I'll give it to somebody. And you know what's crazy? Why would they have coleslaw next to your burger? Because they give it to you. I never had coleslaw near a burger. Yeah, they put it next to your burger and your french fries now. It's all disgusting. And I'm always like, does anybody want my coleslaw? And no one ever wants it. Most barbecue places
Starting point is 01:22:30 give you just the right amount of coleslaw. That's when I usually enjoy it. When it's like with some brisket or like some pulled chicken, pulled barbecue chicken or some pulled, what's the other thing they pull? Pork. No, I don't eat pork. No, it's something else they pull.
Starting point is 01:22:46 You don't eat pork. No, it's something else they pull. What else they pull? It's another meat they pull. I don't know. I don't know what glizzy you are this morning, but I don't eat that. And you know what else I don't F with? Ass. I don't F with cabbage. I don't like cabbage either. Man, you are crazy.
Starting point is 01:23:02 Cabbage? Yes, especially when you go to the Jamaican spot and they put cabbage. I love cabbage at the Jamaican spot. I don't like cabbage either. Man, you are crazy. Cabbage? Yes, especially when you go to the Jamaican spot and they put cabbage. I love cabbage at the Jamaican spot. I don't like when they put a whole lot of cabbage. That's my whole point. I don't like a lot of cabbage either, but just the right amount of cabbage. It's like you're trying to take a space home with the food. That's right.
Starting point is 01:23:15 Give me more jerk chicken, white rice, jerk chicken, rice and peas. No cabbage. Just the right amount of cabbage with your jerk chicken and your oxtails is right. Just like with coleslaw. Just the right amount of coleslaw with your barbecue. And then mama want to put more cabbage. No, no more cabbage. I said no cabbage.
Starting point is 01:23:29 That's a good example you used because cabbage is to Jamaican food what coleslaw is to barbecue. I don't like it. Let's talk about it. 800-585-1051. Let's discuss this at The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Power 105.1.

We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, Charlamagne gave Donkey of the Day to a girl. No, how do we get to talking about it?
Starting point is 01:24:11 We just all started because I said I'm not clearing up no rumors unless someone says I don't like coleslaw. Because coleslaw gets a lot of unnecessary slander. Coleslaw is not trash. And coleslaw is an amazing complement to barbecue. I stand on that. When you get the coleslaw and put it on a pulled barbecue chicken sandwich, oh, my God. Nigga!
Starting point is 01:24:37 You ain't had eats like that ever in your life. I don't do coleslaw. I feel like coleslaw is just there to take up space. It's something cheap that they just give you. It's not true. I'm telling you, it's a great garnish
Starting point is 01:24:49 and it is a good compliment, especially the barbecue. That's when coleslaw takes the best when it's on barbecue. I promise y'all, go out there, find you a restaurant
Starting point is 01:24:56 that serves good pulled chicken sandwiches and put that coleslaw on that pulled chicken sandwich and bite into that and tell me what happens to your mouth. No. No, I'll put anything on that side besides coleslaw. that pulled chicken sandwich and bite into that and tell me what happens to your mouth no no i'll put anything in that that side besides whoa i told you i'll put anything in my mouth see give me plantains give me french fries give me rice give me extra mac and cheese
Starting point is 01:25:16 extra meat i do not want coleslaw let's see stop it after what you made a good example uh uh last hour when you said that, you know, cabbage. You don't like cabbage either, though. But when you order something from a Jamaican restaurant, whether it's oxtail, jerk chicken, curry goat, I like the cabbage with the rice and peas. Just enough. You can just tell them no vegetables. But sometimes they overdo it.
Starting point is 01:25:37 They put way too much on there. They put a lot on there. Because I think it's just cheap. And they just, you know, a lot of places would just throw that stuff on there. You got to tell them no vegetables. And that's what coleslaw is to barbecue what cabbage is to jamaican dishes coleslaw is to barbecue especially pulled chicken man so unnecessary hello who's this this is jamaica your name is jamaica yeah my name is jamaica jamaica jamaica what's good what's good? What's good?

Oh, boiled eggs is in potato salad. She missed the boiled eggs. Oh, no. I hate boiled eggs. You don't like boiled eggs? Nope. Jesus Christ, what are you? They smell like

You know, you boil eggs, put some salt and pepper on it. I eat boiled eggs every morning. That's part of my breakfast every single morning. 800-585-1051. Do you eat coleslaw?

Starting point is 01:29:48 It came from the fact that we were talking about gossip and rumors. And I said, I'm not cleaning up no rumors unless someone says I don't like coleslaw. Because I feel like coleslaw gets, you know, such an unnecessary bad rap. That if somebody was to say that to me, I'd be like, no. So Mr. Mayonnaise over here apparently eats coleslaw. Angelique clearly doesn't listen to me because whenever I talk about mayonnaise I always say it's the right amount. Too much
Starting point is 01:30:12 goddamn mayonnaise is what ruins the dish. You gotta have just the right amount of mayonnaise. You gotta have the right amount of mayonnaise in your potato salad. You gotta have the right amount of mayonnaise in your tuna. And you gotta have the right amount of mayonnaise in your coleslaw. Coleslaw is not trash. It actually is an amazing compliment to barbecue, and if you
Starting point is 01:30:28 are from anywhere down south and you've eaten barbecue, especially like pulled chicken, I don't do pulled pork, but any pulled dish with the coleslaw, yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy.

And so it's cold and raw. You put it on there like that. No, hell no.
Starting point is 01:31:11 I mean, I like it a little warmed up. I put it in the microwave just a little bit because as soon as you take the hot dog off and put it on the bun, it gets kind of hot. You see what I mean? So I like it a little bit warm. Yeah, coleslaw on the glizzy. All coleslaw is is cabbage and carrots.
Starting point is 01:31:26 And mayonnaise. Yeah, and vinegar. Coleslaw is cabbage, mayonnaise, vinegar, and carrots. I don't know. Hello, who's this? Hey, it's Tisha from Texas. Hey, Tisha from Texas. Tisha from Texas.

If you put too much mayonnaise, it'll kill it. That's why he's my dude. I agree with him. You don't add too much mayonnaise. If you put too much mayonnaise, it'll kill it.
Starting point is 01:33:08 That's right. You ruin the whole dish. Nope. You'll kill it. It just looked like mayonnaise with some salad sticking out of it. You have to have the right amount of mayonnaise, the right amount of mustard, the right amount of relish, and your potato salad. I don't eat relish.
Starting point is 01:33:22 I don't eat sauerkraut. I don't eat relish either or sauerkraut. But I like mayonnaise. Oh, I don't eat sauerkraut. I don't eat relish either or sauerkraut.

Starting point is 01:33:41 It's like in the can. Oh, no. I never, no. We ain't never had that. Life ain't never had that. Life ain't never been that bad. I grew up in a single-wide trailer in Monk's Corner, South Carolina, but life ain't never been that bad. Just checking.
Starting point is 01:33:53 Y'all had bologna. No, we had deers. Okay. You never ate bologna? You never ate bologna? We ate bologna. I ate bologna. I love fried bologna.
Starting point is 01:33:59 Fried bologna on some white bread? What you talking about? When you put that damn bologna in that pan and it bubbles up? Absolutely. Now you talking about? When you put that damn bologna in that pan and it bubbles up? Ooh! Absolutely. Now you talking. But I promise y'all, man, coleslaw with barbecue is it. I ain't talking about
Starting point is 01:34:12 no large amount of coleslaw. I'm just talking about just enough. And if you get you a pulled barbecue chicken sandwich and you put that coleslaw in that pulled barbecue chicken sandwich, you're going to know what life is about.
Starting point is 01:34:22 I bet you ain't never felt nothing like that in your mouth. That felt that good. Envy. There's a little mayo in your mouth. This guy's crazy. All right, we got rumors on the way. Kinky, bro.
Starting point is 01:34:36 Yes, and let's tell you who turned down $700 to $800 million. Can't wait till you get to that point where you can do that. All right, we'll talk about it next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. You should come up Uncle Johnny made my dress. He did? That spandex you got on looked like a mess.
Starting point is 01:35:02 What? I don't remember. Whatever Beyonce said. I love that part, though. Alright, well, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Wiz Khalifa. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor report. Rumor report. This is the Rumor Report. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:35:20 Anyway, yes. So, let's talk Wiz Khalifa. So, Kid Capri has called out Wiz Khalifa because Wiz Khalifa was not happy with a pair of DJs during a recent performance at Poppy Nightclub in LA. Here is what Wiz had to say at that time. If you want to fight, we can do it. Don't suck, don't hurt me. Don't suck.
Starting point is 01:35:43 Play my new music. Play it. Don't suck. Play that. Basically he was calling them hoes. It's stupid when we play audio like that. He said it was unacceptable. He said my album came out, play my new ish. He said y'all are horrible DJs. And so all of those things happened.
Starting point is 01:36:20 And here's what Kid Capri, you know, renowned DJ, legendary, had to say about that. Yo, Wes Khalifa, no surprise, man, you know, renowned DJ, legendary, had to say. The legendary Kid Capri. About that. Yo, Wes Khalifa, no surprise, man. You're a big, you're a cool dude, man. When I met you, you was a cool dude, man. That's why I'm a little surprised why you would disrespect those DJs like that, man.
Starting point is 01:36:35 These kids are young dudes, probably scared and nervous that they're playing for you, happy that they're playing for you, probably not as professional and on point as you are. And this is the things I was talking about on The Breakfast Club. Like, the DJ goes through it. It be stuff like this that minimizes what the DJ is. Like, you know, I don't know if you was lit or drunk or whatever the case may be, but if that was me and you spoke to me like that, I would have swung on you right away, immediately. And we would have dealt with it how we have to deal with it afterwards.
Starting point is 01:37:03 But I wouldn't have went for that. You know'm saying but they're young kids and i get it but to get in front of that crowd and disrespect them like that i just didn't agree with that that was that was whack yeah i love the camaraderie that the dj community has um you know if it's beef which one if it's beef with one it's clearly beef with all because i guess so many of y'all can see ourselves in that situation envy yeah i mean that's how it is. I think the DJ community is a community that a lot of times people, it's easy to take your pick on. So if the artist plays a record or DJ plays a record, it's easy to get at the DJ than the other artist.
Starting point is 01:37:34 So it usually is. But the only thing with this situation, Wiz was absolutely completely wrong, I think. But I would also say that Wiz is not that guy. You know what I mean? So we've all known Wiz in this industry for a long time. Even Kid Capri said it. He's a nice guy.
Starting point is 01:37:47 So I would love to hear why, what happened. Yeah, what prompted that. Well, I actually know, but he's going to explain it. He's going to explain it, I guess, in the next episode. Oh, you know? Okay. Was he wrong? Based off what you know, was he wrong?
Starting point is 01:38:00 I mean, it's all how you feel like when somebody disrespects you. I mean, he was saying that his new album just came out, playing my music. Which I did not know until this came out. Yeah, so they were saying that they were playing the music and it was like two songs playing on top of each other, so it was making his music sound bad. See how he got it out of Envy so easily?
Starting point is 01:38:17 No, there was a lot more, but he asked him to play his new single and then he played old stuff. And he was just like, yo, just respect me. I'm just asking you. And he just kind of got it. He's like, man, I done said it a thousand times. But I think he's going to explain it. I mean, he's still wrong for approaching the DJ.
Starting point is 01:38:30 It could have been handled differently, but it's his party. You know what I mean? And when they played the stuff the wrong way, and his issues sounding crazy, he got upset. People probably be like, what the hell going on? Correct. True. Let's ask the real questions, though.
Starting point is 01:38:41 How many of y'all DJs really think y'all could beat Wiz in a fist fight, though? Y'all see Wiz getting his MMA training on, Wiz in shape. A many of y'all DJs really think y'all could beat Wiz in a fist fight, though? Y'all see Wiz getting his MMA training on. Wiz in shape. A lot of y'all DJs is fat, look down, can't see your penises because your stomach is too big. I'm not even going to tell you how the DJ up here messed up just now, right before we went into rumors. Really? Yes.
Starting point is 01:38:56 We got DJs up here? Ain't no DJ up here in the morning. DJ Envy. He Envy don't DJ. I should have screamed on him. I'm not going to lie, but I let it go. Envy DJs? Envy don't DJ. No lie but I let it go NB DJs? NB don't DJ
Starting point is 01:39:06 I mean it doesn't matter about who wins and who loses Yes it does Cause if you talk to somebody disrespectfully and you do that Any DJ is gonna try to put hands on you Like you know I love Wiz Love Wiz to death and Wiz is a good dude But if any artist spoke to me like that Whether they know MMA
Starting point is 01:39:23 Boxing or anything you're fighting And if Charlamagne you with me you better fight too I know MMA, boxing, or anything, you're fighting. And if Charlamagne, you're with me, you better fight, too. I'm not going to be in the club, so you're on your own. You know this already. You know I'm not going to be in no club. What if it was Floyd Mayweather? You would have fought him? I don't care.

Starting point is 01:39:46 Lil Miss wanna fight everybody. You know what I'ma do? Lil Miss talk, God. Lil Miss. I mean, it is. Lil Miss talk, God. It is what it is. Let's move on.
Starting point is 01:39:53 At the end of the day, we all men. Vage rage, Vage rage. We all men at the end of the day. First of all, you don't know what I identify as. We're not all men, Em. All right?
Starting point is 01:40:01 My pronoun is this, and my wife's pronoun is that. All right? Well, you're this, and my wife's pronoun is that. All right? Well, you're this, and if this and that comes up to me, who I identify as a car, Vroom. You're a transformer. I'm going to... Did you just threaten his wife? All right, let me move on.
Starting point is 01:40:24 Ew. Ew. All right, so Liv Goff has offered between $700 million and $800 million to Tiger Woods, trying to get him away from the PGA Tour. And this is what Greg Norman, who is the Liv Go Golf CEO, had to say on Tucker Carlson tonight. So you keep reading that you offered Tiger Woods $700, $800 billion, some unknown number, to join Live. Is that true? That number was out there before I became CEO. So that number's been out there, yes.
Starting point is 01:41:03 And look, Tiger's a needle mover, right? Yeah. So, of course, you've got to look at the best of the best, you know? So, they had originally approached Tiger before I became CEO. So, yes, that number is somewhere in that neighborhood. Big number.
Starting point is 01:41:18 Yeah, it is, actually. I would say. Oof. That's a lot, but Tiger Woods has been openly against Liv Goff. And so it is controversial. You know, they also offered Charles Barkley a deal. How much did he say? He turned it down.
Starting point is 01:41:32 He said he was going to stay at Turner for the rest of his TV career. How much did they say? How much did they say for what? How much did they offer them? Tiger was like $800 million. Between $700 to $800 million. I'll take half of that. Now, if Charles, if they would have asked Charles to do basketball,
Starting point is 01:41:45 I bet you Charles would have bounced. At Live Golf? Yes. That's what I'm saying. If it was basketball, I bet you he would have bounced. He loves basketball that much. Correct. I don't think he wants to spend the rest of his life covering golf
Starting point is 01:41:58 regardless of how much money he has. Well, I also think part of it is the controversy, too, from the Live Golf series. It's a new golf league, but they get funding from Saudi Arabian government. Yeah, but like Charles Barkley said, it's all blood money. Like, name a country that don't have dirty money and dirty money attached to it. We live in one. Well, look, Tiger Woods definitely has been against it.
Starting point is 01:42:20 And so, yes. So I guess that's, I'm sure that's why he actually supported the decision to disinvite Greg Norman from the Celebration of Champions exhibition. And he lashed out against the golfers who deflected to join the live ranks as well. He said he disagrees with it. He said the players who have chosen to go to live and to play there, I
