Starting point is 00:00:00 Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Or maybe not. No country willingly gives up their territory. Oh my God.

And they said, shout out to the Winston for having them. I think it was the Winston, I believe that was the name of the theater. But it was great, man. It was a great night.

Starting point is 00:06:26 Oh, yeah, it's only free for 30 days. My 30 days just started yesterday. Okay. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Now, Joe Coy, you'll be here this morning, right? Comedian Joe Coy? Yay. So, we'll kick it with Joe Coy, and then we got front page news.
Starting point is 00:06:38 What are we talking about? Major League Baseball. They have pulled the all-star game out of Atlanta for 2021. All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:06:47 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front-page news. NCAA women's basketball. All right. Now, Stanford beat Arizona 54-53. You seen the game you used to? I did.
Starting point is 00:07:00 I watched that last night. Well, I watched the game against South Carolina. That was amazing. I watched that one, too. Now, tonight, Baylor takes on Gonzaga at 920. Gonzaga. That's what I said. Gonzaga, right? You said Gonzaga. That sounded like a Muppet.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Oh, Gonzaga. A Muppet character that they never show. Alright. What else we got, Yee? Well, Major League Baseball, the commissioner has announced on Friday that the 2021 All-Star game will not be held in Atlanta anymore. And that's because of the election bill that was signed by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, which opponents say is disenfranchising people of color disproportionately.
Starting point is 00:07:34 So MLB is still finalizing a new host city and details about these events will be announced shortly. There you have it. Now, of course, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp is not happy about this. And he said, today, Major League Baseball caved to fair political opportunism and liberal lies. Georgians and all Americans should fully understand what the MLB's knee-jerk decision means. Cancel culture and woke political activists are coming for every aspect of your life, sports included. If the left doesn't agree with you, facts and the truth do not matter. I disagree with that, Brian Kemp.
Starting point is 00:08:07 I think that, you know, that is a great protest for somebody, for an unjust law. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, you should be able to react to what you don't agree with. I don't know how much impact it's going to have, but, you know. Right, and they are saying that Georgians will not be bullied and they will not back down. We will continue to stand up for secure, accessible, fair elections. All right. The Texas Rangers are going to reopen their stadium at full capacity, even though COVID-19 case numbers are back on the rise. So their home opener is actually today.
Starting point is 00:08:41 President Joe Biden has said he's concerned. Medical experts are saying they are concerned as well. So a lot is opening back up in California. They're allowing indoor concerts to resume starting April 15th. So it's very complicated, though. Venues with a capacity of up to 1,500 people. There's like different tiers where it's 10 percent or 100 people, and then it increases to 25 percent if all guests are tested or show proof of full vaccination. So it depends on what the capacity is, if you're vaccinated, if they're doing testing and things like that.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Texas Rangers Stadium holds 49,000 people. So there's going to be 49,000 people in that building today, I'm sure. Yeah, it's a little nerve-wracking, especially because they're talking about these numbers going back up. Now, a lot of people have gotten vaccinated, a little under 20 percent here in the United States. And if you are fully vaccinated, you can travel in the U.S. without a test or quarantines. So people who are fully vaccinated can do those things. You still have to remain masked on the planes, on buses and on trains as well.
Starting point is 00:09:43 People are still already traveling, though, and making these decisions on their own. They said that on American Airlines, their bookings have jumped to 90% of what they were before the pandemic. So it seems like a lot of people are traveling right now. But they are issuing these warnings that younger people are now more at risk because the older people are able to get vaccinated. Younger people are traveling with spring break just now. So that's why. I still wonder if the vaccine can fight off the variants because some doctors say it can't. Some doctors say it will. Like, what is it going to be?
Starting point is 00:10:13 Nobody knows. I think it was the president of Argentina got vaccinated and then got COVID after. Yeah. Because it doesn't mean you're 100 percent protected. Correct. By the way. They're saying that you shouldn't die from it. You shouldn't succumb from COVID from it.
Starting point is 00:10:27 And you won't get extremely sick. Extremely sick, correct. All right. Well, that is your Front Page News. All right. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Hopefully you had a great Easter. Call us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary?
Starting point is 00:10:50 Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
Starting point is 00:11:04 I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.
Starting point is 00:11:20 I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt
Starting point is 00:12:05 the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.
Starting point is 00:12:28 It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty

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

It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Wake up, wake up you get your podcasts. I just want to say I had a great Resurrection Sunday, you know, with my son and everybody. We had a nice little cookout and stuff like that. So I definitely appreciate the fact that God woke me up this morning and woke me up every morning, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:14:17 But for the past, like, two and a half years, I've been trying to let my BM know, or let my mother know that I'm trying to get back together with her. But she's definitely not hearing me because, like, when we broke up, like, a month later, I actually ended up sleeping with, like, the babysitter and stuff like that. She used to babysit me when I was, like, 10 years old and shit. It was like a little bucket list thing. But the thing is, she gave me an STD when I slept with her. Wow.
Starting point is 00:14:38 That's kind of wild on the babysitter's part, bro, bro. Yeah, but, like... I mean, not the STD, the fact that she slept with somebody that she used to babysit which std uh it was uh what was it uh kind of real something like that i think it was was it curable was it one of the ones that's curable huh was it one of the ones that's curable yeah definitely okay just make it show because you don't seem to know which one it was how did you know you had it uh the thing is the the fact that when me and my girl got back together,
Starting point is 00:15:07 like a couple months later, she ended up getting it. Ooh. So you didn't have any symptoms? You weren't like... No, I didn't have any symptoms at all whatsoever, you know? Like, I really didn't find out until the fact that she got tested. And then, so... What's the age difference between you and the babysitter?
Starting point is 00:15:28 The age difference? Yes. What, like she's like 10 years older than me 10 years older than you okay and i'm like 28 so she was like 38 okay so she used to babysit you when you and she was like wasn't heard he said when he was 10 and so i guess she was like 20 now you know i always had like a big ass crush on her so i was like yo like if i ever broke up with my girl stuff like that like that was something that i actually knew but like once i actually got it i finally realized the fact that i love my girl i love i love my p.m i want my friends to be together you know what i mean but like we was broken up at the time so once we actually got back together uh i was committed to her and then from the find out she caught it for me and i got the testing and then I found out I had it.
Starting point is 00:16:06 And I've been trying to contact other girls, but obviously she didn't want to contact me because I knew that she had it. Just remember, the grass is always burning on the other side. Yeah, but let's stick to how sick this person is. Because if this was a guy, if the role was reversed, this man would be being crucified right now. Let's think about how sick this woman is. She used to babysit a person when he was 10 years old and she slept with him when he was of age. How do we know she wasn't touching on you
Starting point is 00:16:31 when you was younger, sir? I know for a fact that my mom was kind of sketchy about her. That's why she stopped babysitting me. She was always around my face. That tells you everything you need to know. Your mama was right. She did used to touch on you when That tells you everything you need to know. Your mama was right. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:46 So she did used to touch on you when you was younger? He don't know. Did she touch on me when I was younger? Nah, nah, nah. He said no. He said no, he doesn't.
Starting point is 00:16:52 She didn't. I've been legit trying to, like, get back together with her. Like, trying to do everything I can in my power to help myself and touch her. And I'm sorry. I obviously did not hear it,
Starting point is 00:17:00 but rightfully so. Yeah, you did give her gonorrhea. Yeah. So, like, I've been trying my hardest to try to, like, get my family back together. But, like, you know, that's not hearing it, but rightfully so. Yeah, you did give her gonorrhea. Yeah. So, like, I've been trying my hardest to try to, like, get my family back together, but, like, you know, that's not happening. But I've been praying about it, trying to, like, hear everything,
Starting point is 00:17:11 pray everything in the Lord and in God's name. But I'm definitely always there for my son. I'm always taking care of my son, always, nonstop, you know what I mean? All right, we'll pray for you also. I hope you guys work it out. Thank you, bro. Get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:17:24 You see how we just breathe past that? When it's a woman doing it? But if it was a guy. I mean, it's foul regardless. Jesus Christ. I mean, she's 38 and he's 28. I think it happens all the time. She used to babysit him.
Starting point is 00:17:36 We've heard stories. If there was a guy who used to babysit a woman when she was that age. It's not illegal. It's not against the law, but you got to admit it's kind of sick. I know people. I know teachers who have married former students after they graduated and everything. Not elementary school, though. Maybe college. Not elementary.
Starting point is 00:17:54 Could you imagine marrying a teacher in elementary school? But if you were 10 and then it's 18 years later. And the fact the mom was suspicious about her. Come on, man. 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 00:18:08 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Get it off your chest. It's your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. So you better have the same energy. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? This is Jay.
Starting point is 00:18:25 What's up, Jay? Good morning, Jay. Good morning. I want to get two things off my chest if I could. Go ahead. Number one, Wendy Williams, please. Women are not desperate like you are. Please stop doing it.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Every day you talk about your man, this and that. You're not that desperate. Please stop being desperate. It's no good on women. Stop it. I guess she's putting it out there that she really wants a man. Oh, my God. Tell a man.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Talk to her. She listens to you. Why y'all think I talk to that woman? I don't talk. I haven't spoken to her in like two years now. That's what you say. That's what I know. Okay, well, please get on our show and tell her to kill.
Starting point is 00:19:13 You said you don't speak to her, but thank you, Mom. You got something else? Yes, and the second thing is on Thursday, Angela, he wasn't there and y'all was doing her bad. Y'all acted like somebody's secretary

Starting point is 00:19:43 irritated. Why don't you go to Wendy's Instagram? Why don't you hit Wendy's Instagram? Go to Wendy's Instagram. It's The Wendy Show on Instagram. They blocked me. They blocked you? Oh, no. I'm sorry, Mama.

Starting point is 00:20:06 And DJ Envy. Oh, you don't have Twitter? Okay. All right. Well, I'm sure somebody will hear this. And DJ Envy. Yes, ma'am. I have a nephew, and y'all are the same color. Like, thin, yellow. And let me tell you, your beard looks like somebody has put mud all over your face. Preach, Grandma. Preach. Preach, Grandma. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Please take it off. You know what? Take it off. What's your name, Mama? She's very enlightening. Jay. Jay, I'm going to block you, too. Jay, I respect you, Jay.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Don't have a problem with me. That was so disrespectful. That older woman is telling you something that you need to hear. There's nothing wrong with mud on your face. I'm going to block her, too. Do you matter for telling the truth? Shout out to Khaled. Shout out to Kevin Hart.
Starting point is 00:20:46 Shout out to Diddy. Shout out to Rosé. All of them look way more real than yours, bro. Hello, who's this? Hello, this is Chandler from Columbus, Ohio. Good morning, guys. Good morning. What's up, Chandler?
Starting point is 00:20:56 What's up, man? Get off your chest. Oh, man. First off, I meant to tell y'all, when y'all talk about shows and stuff, don't forget to mention Cobra Kai on Netflix. It's amazing. What's it called don't forget to mention Cobra Kai on Netflix. It's amazing. What's it called?
Starting point is 00:21:08 Cobra Kai. Cobra Kai. It's basically about a karate kid like 20, 30 years later but it's actually dope. I always see that it always pops up on my things to watch
Starting point is 00:21:17 on Netflix but I haven't. I never watched it. I've seen Bad Trip over the weekend. Bad Trip is funny as is. Bad Trip's hilarious. So you mean like
Starting point is 00:21:23 Daniel's son? Daniel's son karate mean like Daniel, Daniel's son, Daniel's son karate kid? Yeah, Daniel's son karate kid. Like Ralph, Ralph Machio, what's the dude, Ralph Machio playing him? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:31 It's dope. I'm telling you, bro. It's dope. Mr. Miyagi's in it too? Mr. Miyagi's in it. It's the twist to it. It's dope. I'm going to check that out.
Starting point is 00:21:40 I'm sorry. What I wanted to get about is Charlamagne, you write about Southwest, man. They did me dirty. I took my son to Florida for his birthday and our plane was delayed the whole day. I literally was checking every 15 minutes,
Starting point is 00:21:55 40 minutes before the flight. They put it on time, so we ended up missing the flight. Damn. They couldn't find no more flights for us the rest of the day, so we had to stay the next extra day. But it worked out because the rental car gave me the rental for free,
Starting point is 00:22:09 and the hotel I got was like 60 bucks. But they don't want to give me no voucher, so I'm real pissed off about it, man. Southwest ain't nothing but a China bus in the sky, man. You know what a China bus is in New York? It's the bus that you can ride for like $25. Okay, it's a million stops. It's so cheap, though.
Starting point is 00:22:26 That's the point. And that's why you had the problems you had. Right. And that's all I wanted to get off my chest. But check out that Cobra Kai for sure. No, I am. So, question. Bad Trip, was that real or was it fake?
Starting point is 00:22:40 Because some of that stuff, they had cameras there. I'm like, the reactions look so damn real, but... The cameras were hidden. That's why at the end, if you watch the end during the credits, they show where a lot of the cameras were hidden. So a lot of the times, people just didn't know what was going on. So Little Rel and Eric Andre and Tiffany were in on it. And they might have had a couple extras that were in on it, but for the most part, people
Starting point is 00:23:02 didn't know what was going on. That was great, man. I love it. That was great. Check out Bad Trip if you get a chance. It's on Netflix right now. It'll make you laugh, man. What was your favorite part with the bear?
Starting point is 00:23:12 The bear was the funniest part to me. That bear was hilarious. I knew you would like that. I like the gorilla. I mean, the gorilla. That's what I meant, the gorilla. I said bear. I love the gorilla.
Starting point is 00:23:19 The gorilla was great. That's what I meant, the gorilla. I knew that would be your favorite. I figured you liked the car wash guy. Did you see all the gorilla glue? No. You didn't see the gorilla glue? On his face?
Starting point is 00:23:28 Oh, wow. You weren't paying attention. Yeah, if you want to call it gorilla glue, yeah. Yeah. I figured you liked the car wash scene, Charlamagne. No, I liked the gorilla scene. Car wash scene was funny, too, though. All right.
Starting point is 00:23:39 Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Now, we got rumors on the way? Yes, and let's offer up some prayers for DMX. We'll talk about what's happening with him. We'll give you updates. Really unfortunate situation, but we are praying.
Starting point is 00:23:54 Alright, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Keep the prayers going for DMX. He is clinging to life. He's in ICU. They said he has little brain function, but there are a few family members who have visited him, and they are not giving up hope. His fiance, Desiree Lindstrom, and his mother, Arnette Simmons, have been allowed into the ICU to visit him. Even though he is not
Starting point is 00:24:29 responsive, they said his kids are coming to visit as well. Hopefully they will be allowed in. Now, I saw a statement that the family gave to people. They said, we ask that you please keep Earl, DMX, and us in your thoughts, wishes, and prayers, as well as respect our privacy as we face these challenges. According to reports, according to OK, they said there are many people stating that he is in a vegetative state while others are saying he has some brain activity. DMX is still in the same condition, in a vegetative state with lung and brain failure and no brain activity, according to his manager, Nakia Walker. That's what she said to BuzzFeed News. If you recall, when DMX has been here on The Breakfast Club, he actually did a prayer with us. The word says no weapon formed against me shall prosper.
Starting point is 00:25:13 The word doesn't say that the weapon won't be formed. The word doesn't say that the intention of the weapon maker won't be to harm you. The word doesn't say that they won't attempt to use it. The word says no weapon formed against me shall prosper. So no matter what they think, no matter what they make, no matter what they try, by the power of the word, we are covered. We humble ourselves before you. We praise
Starting point is 00:25:32 your name and give you the glory. We praise your name and give you the glory. We praise your name and give you the glory. In Jesus' mighty name we are praying. Amen. Amen. That's right. Don't just post about praying for DMX. Actually pray for him. I often wonder when people hear news like this, do they rush to social media to post or do they actually pray for the person? Pray for DMX as hard as he would for you.
Starting point is 00:25:53 All right. Well, the Rough Riders Motorcycle Club is paying tribute to DMX. They are outside of the hospital in White Plains where he is recovering, hopefully. You're not going to meet too many individuals in your life who are as authentic as DMX. You know what I'm saying? Some people need what they do to be who they are. Some people need money to be who they are. All X needs to be X's X. And that is something I've always admired about him.
Starting point is 00:26:16 So, yes, we are sending DMX a lot of healing energy this morning. Absolutely. All right. And over the weekend for Easter, Earth, Wind & Fire Versus the Isley Brothers Hosted by Steve Harvey And he was getting His whole life His outfit
Starting point is 00:26:30 Him getting on the mic Him singing along Listen to this Steve sounded good too Steve was waiting For this moment His whole life Steve sounded good too. Steve was waiting for this moment his whole life. He sounded good, man. He was like, Steve, come up here. He was like, who, me?
Starting point is 00:26:50 He wanted to be a member of Earth, Wind & Fire. Steve sounded good. I ain't gonna lie. Steve Harvey at work this morning is what I wanted. Steve Harvey making... He probably floated into work. Easily. He was pouring out to rock for the dead homies yesterday.
Starting point is 00:27:03 That was like... He was knocking over Steve. He was getting hype. yesterday that was like he was knocking over come on now come on now listen it was a great great uh battle a great versus celebration isley brothers versus earth wind and fire i thoroughly enjoyed it earth wind and fire always makes me think of my mom that's one of my mom's favorite groups so excited for that and of course you know the isley brothers is bringing it. It was a good battle, though, between the two of them. And the Isley Brothers also put out a new song. They premiered a video for their new song
Starting point is 00:27:32 featuring Snoop Dogg called Friends and Family. So we oblige and step to the side. Not a whole fam doing the electric slide like that. One, two. Uncle Ron, what you want them to do? Now you got it, let's do it again like Friends Friends
Starting point is 00:27:47 And family Family I'm talking about Friends Friends And family They shot this video after the performance on Trilla. If you had Trilla and you kept it on, they showed the full video.
Starting point is 00:28:05 Video is dope, feels good. I'm about to say, because I didn't see that on IG Live. One thing about them Isley brothers, though, it ain't on them, it's in them. You can't teach what they got. No sir, no ma'am. Okay, that's just pure de-giftedness right there. Video is dope, too. Check it out.
Starting point is 00:28:20 They rented a mansion somewhere. They all partying in the mansion. Snoop's on FaceTime, they're just having a great time. Lisa Rae's in it as well, but they're having a good time. Now listen, we know that Earth, Wind & Fire and Isley Brothers are gods. And you know, there is no real winner. But who won last night?
Starting point is 00:28:36 Come on, guys. Who won? See? It depends on who you ask. And they went 25. Some people say the Isley Brothers had it. Some people say Earth, Wind & Fire. I'm a huge Earth, Wind & Fire fan. I'm an Earth, Wind & Fire guy too
Starting point is 00:28:49 but I think the Ozzy Brothers took it last night especially in the second half. I think they did better in the second half. The Earth, Wind & Fire was killing it in the first half
Starting point is 00:28:57 but certain songs you match them up against each other it really is a matter of preference. That is true because what beats between the sheets?
Starting point is 00:29:04 Nothing. Even though Serpentine Fire is a great record. What beats is true. What beats Between the Sheets? Nothing. Even though Serpentine Fire is a great record. What beats Reasons? What beats September? Nothing beats Reasons. That was a great matchup with September. Who's that lady versus September? Who's that lady? Alright guys, we'll talk about it more. That is your rumor report.
Starting point is 00:29:18 That was a great battle last night, man. I'm tired now, boy. Alright, we got front page news next. What are we talking about? Yes, let's talk about Derek Chauvin's trial. As you know, we're picking this back up today, and we'll give you some more highlights of what happened last week. And I just want to tell all you artists out there, they came on time.
Starting point is 00:29:35 They started at 8, and then they ended at after midnight. Evie, we're trying to be on time right now. I'm just telling you. They was on time. You can't talk about being on time when we about to be late. Save this for another break, sir. I tried. Alright, alright. Front page is next. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:29:52 The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. When a train hits a vehicle at a railway crossing, the results are often deadly. Be cautious at crossings and if the signals are going, don't be tempted to try and sneak across the tracks, even if you don't see a train. Stop.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Trains can't. Brought to you by NHTSA. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, NV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. The NCAA Women's Basketball Championship game, Stanford beat Arizona 54-53.
Starting point is 00:30:24 And tonight, Baylor takes on Gonzaga at 9-20. Now what else we got here? Alright, well let's talk about Derek Chauvin's trial. During the first week of testimony last week, there were 19 witnesses who testified, including two high-ranking police officials
Starting point is 00:30:39 who actually denounced Derek Chauvin's actions. One of them is Lieutenant Richard Zimmerman, the head of the Minneapolis Police Department's Homicide Division. Here is what he had to say on the stand about Derek Chauvin's use of force against George Floyd. What is your view of that use of force during that time period? Totally unnecessary. Once a person is cuffed, you need to turn them on their side or have them sit up. You need to get them off their chest. Your muscles are pulling back when you're handcuffed. And if you're laying on
Starting point is 00:31:11 your chest, that's constricting your breathing even more. All right, lock them up then. We're wasting too much of taxpayers' dollars and time, okay? We got a video. We got guys like him saying it was unnecessary. It's time to lock Derek Chauvin up. Can we wrap this thing up now? Yes. I mean, I totally agree. So we'll see what's going to happen this week and week two of testimony. And I guess right now it's going to be expert testimony involving everything from the use of force to the cause of death. So that's what we're about to see.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Hey, they got to lock them up. Justice must be served. If not, they're going to burn this country to the ground. All right. Speaking of locking people up, let's talk about Park Cannon, the Georgia State Representative Park Cannon. She is talking about being arrested last week. That's because she knocked on Governor Brian Kemp's door to protest him signing that voting rights bill. That's very controversial, as she should be able to go and express herself and
Starting point is 00:32:05 knock on the door, if you so choose. And now she's facing eight years in jail. Listen to this. As horrible as that experience was, and as difficult as it is to acknowledge that I am facing facing eight years in prison on unfounded charges. I believe the governor's signing into law the most comprehensive voter suppression bill in the country is a far more serious crime. Keep in mind, Paul Cannon actually works in that building. For knocking on the door, you get more of a penalty than people who actually storm the Capitol. Imagine going to the boss's office, knocking on the door because you want him to be transparent about something that he's not being transparent about, and then you get arrested.
Starting point is 00:32:57 That sounds crazy. And you face up to eight years in jail. You know how ridiculous that is because I'm trying to do my job as a representative. Yeah, and to Yee's point, I haven't seen them treat anyone who was involved in the attempted coup on January 6th as harsh as they treat in Park Cannon. But we all know why, because Park Cannon is a black woman, and you know,
Starting point is 00:33:16 the people doing the attempted coups were white. Alright, now, for everybody who's been vaccinated, I know people are going out there and laminating their card. Number one, do not post your vaccine card online on social media. People can't take your information, as you know, and you don't want that to happen for everybody that's posting their vaccination proof online. Also, they said if you're getting a two dose vaccine, make sure that you receive and document both doses on your card before you laminate it. So don't get so excited that you get that first dose,
Starting point is 00:33:46 and then you go ahead and laminate your card, but you're not even finished. They also said create a backup of your card before laminating it. Take a picture after getting the first shot, then after the second one, too, in case you lose the physical card. Keep that picture on your phone. Email yourself a copy as well. Photo copy the card. Keep it in the same place as other important documents.
Starting point is 00:34:04 And then after that, they said if you want to laminate your card, then go ahead and go for it. Yeah, and you're not better than nobody because you're fully vaccinated. Some of y'all walking around here acting like y'all better than people because y'all fully vaccinated, but you still got chlamydia. Just want to throw that out there. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:34:20 Why are you such a hater? See? You wouldn't have felt like that if you didn't think you was better than people. How does this become me having chlamydia? How does this seem to me having chlamydia? Just because you're fully vaccinated, you think you're better than people. So me saying that chlamydia line hurt your soul just now. I just don't understand where the hate comes from.
Starting point is 00:34:36 But we all vaccinated. Yep. Just imagine, now people who are vaccinated, you don't have to get tested to do things anymore. You don't have to quarantine. No, you still got to get tested. No, I'm still getting tested. Who said you can't? I'm still getting tested. I bet you didn't. No, I mean, they said you don't have to. No, do things anymore. You don't have to quarantine. No, you still got to get tested. No, I'm still getting tested. Who said you can't? I'm still getting tested.
Starting point is 00:34:46 I bet you didn't. No, I mean, they said you don't have to. When you travel, I bet you don't have to. When you travel, you don't have to. But yeah, I'm still going to get tested because they don't know. They change every other week with something different. So I'm going to continue to get tested. I'm going to continue to wear my mask.
Starting point is 00:34:58 I'm going to continue to everything. Because there's still people out there, you know, getting tested, testing positive even after being fully vaccinated. Yes, like the president of Argentina like I just told y'all he just got it because it is what 90 something percent effective
Starting point is 00:35:10 that's not 100 I just want you to humble yourself okay you fully vaccinated you fully vaccinated but you still got herpes humble thyself
Starting point is 00:35:19 I got a shot for you if you want one no I'm cool alright well that is your front page news alright thank you Miss Yee. Now when we come back, comedian Joe Coy will be joining us. We're going to kick it with comedian Joe Coy
Starting point is 00:35:30 so don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. Start your own country. I planted the flag.

Starting point is 00:36:35 As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self-preservation and protection. It was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.

We got an autobiography I call Mixed Plate Chronicles of an All-American Combo. What does that mean, Joe? Thank you so much. The title, Mixed Plate? Yes. You know, Hawaii is one of my favorite places to go.

Starting point is 00:40:11 I let my grades come in. I'm not hiding them like Envy is. I don't know what y'all talking about. Shout out to DJ Khaled. Shout out to Rick Ross. Shout out to Diddy. Shout out to Kevin Hart. I don't know what y'all talking about.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Shout out to Craig. Why are you trying to bring everybody down with you? I don't know. I'all talking about. Why are you trying to bring everybody down with you? Just because you do that. I'm just shouting my people out. You did kind of hate on some other people by doing that. I'm just shouting them out. You should have shouted out Sharpie, Cram. That's like if you get cheated and you shout out all the other cheaters.
Starting point is 00:40:43 I don't know what y'all talking about. You should have shouted out JFM. What the hell is JFM? Just for men. Exactly. He keeps saying the beard is real, but the color is not. Listen. I don't know what you're talking about. Joe, does your book focus more on your background and upbringing
Starting point is 00:40:59 or the journey once you made it into comedy? I wanted to tell people just how hard it was for me to make it, you know, in this entertainment business and the struggle it was just being a mixed kid growing up. You know, we talk about systemic racism now, and I really didn't even know what that was, Charlamagne, until this is all, you know, in light now, you know? But I didn't know I was actually a part of it until I started reading
Starting point is 00:41:25 my book back in the uh in the studio and i was like god damn i was part of this i was part of this type of systemic racism being put in certain groups or not being able to do certain shows because of what i was talking about or what i look like or you know what i mean it was just i didn't really know it until i started writing the book and I was like wow just how my mom went through her struggles you know in the 80s you know being an Asian woman raising these kids by herself
Starting point is 00:41:54 in America and just dealing with the racism that she had to face. Were you ever able to assimilate Joe a little bit did anybody ever mistake you for just a white guy? No no no no they always looked at me weird like i had the hazel eyes like they're light but then but but the the roundness wasn't there they always noticed they were like what are you yeah what is that what is this was it very
Starting point is 00:42:18 difficult to write this book was it was it difficult going back on some of the feelings and some of the things that you had to think about? How difficult? Yeah, the most difficult part was writing about my brother. And, you know, I, you know, it was hard for me to talk about my brother, but I will say this. And I told Charlamagne this before that, you know, when I, when you brought up mental health and, you know, you put it out there and make people accept it, you know, because a lot of people that have to deal with mental issues, mental health issues, and I hate saying this publicly, you're embarrassed, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:42:53 Especially when you grow up with a brother that has, you know, schizophrenia and the trauma that it put our family through. And I'm not saying my brother's a bad guy. He's, you know, he had mental health issues and it was very strenuous in our family. And, and it was, it was a hard time, but I also went through this time where I didn't want to talk about it. Like I would always go, Oh, do you have any siblings? I'd always say, Oh, I got two sisters, but I would never say my brother. Cause I knew once they asked me about my brother, it would go into this whole other world of like, Oh, where is he? And I got to tell him that he's in the hospital. And then I got to talk about his mental health issues.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Then I felt like I'm the only one. And it just sucked. So being able to, you know, especially like people like you, Charlamagne, and just like how now people are open about mental health and you don't feel alone anymore. So like I know how important therapy is now. It is very important. And that therapy today yeah man just yo i'm telling you charlotte when i read this in the studio i had to do the audio version that was the best therapy session of my life man just reading the the chapter
Starting point is 00:43:57 on my brother alone i remember i cried at the end i remember i had to take a break and i just remember this this weight being lifted like, yo, it's out. It's finally out. You know what I mean? Everyone knows now. And I love it. And by the way, I love my brother. This is no way I'm not trying to say anything bad.
Starting point is 00:44:18 My brother, he's one of the funniest guys in the family. It's just he's dealing with, you know know mental health issues and and we're not alone i just want everyone to know that you're not alone and that's difficult you were very honest about that because i'm sure there were times you felt like your life could have been in danger your mom's life could have been in danger so many times oh man we had so many cops at the house you know it was always physical there was always jail time for my brother you know always in and out of hospitals so yeah it was it was traumatizing man as a kid and you know you know i didn't like talking about it i really didn't you know how do you feel about that because
Starting point is 00:44:56 you would be the perfect person to ask you know let's say something happens with your brother that that is violent and you said he had to go to jail is that necessarily right because mentally he wasn't right so he might not have known what he was doing but do you still put somebody like that in jail or do you say no we understand he wasn't in his right mind at the time let's continue to give him help and not do jail because he doesn't know what he did wrong so is jail really what he should be sent to i think jail is you know the initial you know i mean what he should be sent to? I think jail is, you know, the initial, you know what I mean? What he did, you know,
Starting point is 00:45:27 his, he would be physical with people. He would hurt people. You know what I mean? And they don't know. They're just, they're arresting somebody, but immediately he always gets into the, you know,
Starting point is 00:45:36 immediately he goes right back into the system. He, he gets, he stays in the hospital and, you know, he gets the, the, the,
Starting point is 00:45:43 the medicine that he needs and the therapy that he needs but it's it's a struggle with my brother it's it's it's hard man you know my brother just called me three days ago it was his birthday and uh you get you get a glimpse you get a small glimpse man the window opens and there's robert and you just you love it and you enjoy it and then boom the window closes and and that's the hard pill to swallow that's the part you're just like man you know so that that's it's it's it felt good to be able to talk about that in the book all right we got more with comedian joe coy when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning is your country falling apart?

Starting point is 00:50:10 it just sucked man it feels to me joe like when you when you started i'm sorry go ahead no i was just like you know no one really knows the struggle of being a half white half asian kid being raised by a filipino mom dad you know you know dad moved out and now here's my mom that just got to this country and she's dealing with racism all around her but she's just like even though she's american she feels like a visitor so she doesn't want to approach anybody when they're doing something messed up you know what i mean and here i am a little kid seeing my mom go through that it's just like it's up i didn't like there's this one story i wrote about my mom when we went upstairs to go claim some prize that we won at the mall and uh and
Starting point is 00:50:50 this kid turned around and pulled his eyes back on my mom and i just remember like like when i wrote about it just i just i couldn't believe how much trauma that caused me because i knew it by detail you know what i mean i remember my mom putting her hand on my head, just going, he doesn't know Joseph. He's just being funny. Like that's just her accepting the fact that this is normal. You know what I mean? And she's, and she's scared to say anything because in her mind, she's a visitor. You know what I mean? So it's just, oh, he doesn't know Joe. He's just being funny, but like, no, that's fucked up, you know? And she doesn't need to go through that. And now like you need to have a voice and you need to be able to say something.
Starting point is 00:51:30 And I'm glad we're in a time that we're in right now where people are vocal and we have platforms that'll support that now. We don't have to wait till six o'clock evening news and hope to God that they talk about something that happened locally in Seattle to let the world know that if something happens in Seattle, everyone's
Starting point is 00:51:50 going to know about it. We're going to Instagram. We're going to Facebook. We're going to let everybody know what happened. And I'm glad that because it's like as a kid growing up, you would see all these jokes all the time, like whether it was jokes around Asian people or jokes around Caribbean people or black people or Jewish people.
Starting point is 00:52:10 And when kids made jokes, nine times out of 10, they got it from their parents or family members. But you don't realize how much it can hurt somebody until you get old and you start realizing. And it's good that we're having these conversations now. So hopefully parents will teach their kids a lot different than we were taught or that, you know, we've seen, you know, in our day. Yeah, exactly. And like, now we have that voice where we're like, no, you don't have to go through that. You know, I was doing,
Starting point is 00:52:33 I did this documentary for Guy Torrey, right? And we were talking about Fat Tuesdays over at the comedy store. And that was one of the rooms that accepted me right away. But like, if you really look at the show, the reason why it was on a Tuesday night, like, does anyone really understand why the all black show was on a Tuesday night? It's because it's the only night no one wants to go to a club. It's the night that no one wants to pay for a ticket. You got to beg for someone to come do a free show.
Starting point is 00:53:05 But here's the hottest ticket in town. You know what I mean? And it was at the store. It's like, why were those shows okay? You know what I mean? Why do we have to give them a theme? Oh, the Black Knight? Well, let's give it a hip hop name.
Starting point is 00:53:17 You know what I mean? And no disrespect, Guy did what he had to do because that was the norm. He was just accepting the fact that it was a night. Like, thank you for giving me this night. I'm going to blow it up. And to this day, it's still like legend. No one put out as many stars as Fat Tuesdays. Check, look at the receipts.
Starting point is 00:53:36 You know what I mean? Look at it. Look who came out of Fat Tuesdays. From Chris Tucker all the way to everybody. I can't even name them all. Kevin Hart to everybody came out of that show. You know what I mean? But is it fair for comedians to have to, you know, I grew up where comedy was comedy. I mean,
Starting point is 00:53:50 I've heard comedians go at Asian people. I heard comedians go at black people. I heard comedians go at Caribbean, anything, but you know, as a comic, should you have to watch what you say or is it all in the vein of, it's just comedy. I think you need to just be responsible with what you say or is it all in the vein of it's just comedy i think you need to just be responsible with what you say right you got to understand like yeah there are people that'll be offended and hurt and yeah you you do have the right to change the channel but i also think as a comic you're also responsible it's like you know when you're being hurtful you know you know you know when it's do you know it's not even i i think so i i believe so you know i mean i you know the difference when you hear something you're like
Starting point is 00:54:31 yo man that ain't even coming from funny but think about it right think about like an old show like in living color mike tyson ran down on keenan irving wins because he didn't like the way keenan irving was portraying him but that was hilarious hilarious. It was funny. Yeah, it was so funny. But that was also the norm back then. It was a shit talk like that back then, because society accepted it. And then, of course,
Starting point is 00:54:55 black people were only being a certain way because they knew that was the way to get into these doors that were closed. They were like, oh, we got to act a certain way. Okay. Well then we'll joke around about this because you, the people with power are laughing at it. Does that make sense? It's kind of like, it's kind of like Asians. It's like, dude,
Starting point is 00:55:17 like we had to do what it was to make you happy to let us in. And that sucks. And I was a victim of that i had to do that i was gonna ask you that because i've been you know i've been watching you for so long joe like you know since chelsea but it's when you started leaning like really like just embracing the filipino aspect of your life it seemed like that's when you took off to me yeah exactly and that's what i always wanted to talk about but you know when you go back you you had to figure out how to get in because no one wants to hear about your asian your filipino mom you know what i mean i always got the same note you know they were like oh i don't think uh middle
Starting point is 00:55:57 america will get that and i'm like what the are you guys talking about my mom was just a mom she just happens to be filip Filipino but she's still doing mom right I feel like there's certain things that are universal since you were talking about this story about getting the prize right and she made you guys fill out like a raffle ticket like a all these raffle tickets to try to win this uh tv I feel like my parents would have made us do that too yeah that's trying to win a TV. What about the Tupperware joke? Like, it's just, you know,
Starting point is 00:56:30 my mom using coolant containers for Tupperware. Like, why is middle America not going to get it? Everyone uses that kind of Tupperware. You know what I mean? It's just like, I didn't understand why I always get those notes. Why they always fell on. By the way, can I ask you guys a quick question? No. Why does middle
Starting point is 00:56:47 America depend on what the world is listening to? I'm so sick of that f***ing excuse where they go, I don't think middle America will get it. Well, you know what? The world gets it. Do people still say that now? Yeah, they still say that. They still say that. I'm like, yo, I'm so sick
Starting point is 00:57:04 of that excuse. Yeah, I was just talking about that the other day. I forgot what I was still say that. I'm like, yo, I'm so sick of that excuse. Yeah, I was just talking about that the other day. I forgot what I was talking about, but I was like, oh, you know what I was talking about? I was speaking about how a few years ago, maybe like four years ago, somebody was like Michael B. Jordan wasn't famous enough to be on SNL, right? This is what one of the SNL execs said. But it's because of that. It's because middle America didn't know who Michael B. Jordan was at the time. That makes no sense to me.
Starting point is 00:57:29 Hey, look, I love my fans in Ohio. I'm just saying, who are these executives that keep falling on middle America as the excuse? It's bulls**t. I never got that. And I just recently got that. I'm not going to say who, but it was like five years ago. It was the same thing. I don't think they'll get it.
Starting point is 00:57:48 Middle America is not going to get it. I'm like, what? Middle America. What are you talking about? You're right. I just sold out two forums. I just sold out Dubai. I just sold out Philippines.
Starting point is 00:58:01 I just sold out New York. What are you talking about? Like, the world gets it. I about? Like, the world gets it. I'm just saying, the world gets it. Why the f*** are we waiting on Omaha? Don't move. We got more with Joe Coy when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:58:16 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with comedian Joe Coy. Yee. The things that you passed on are just as important as the things that you agreed to do because there's some times in life there might be a great opportunity and you have to really think about it and say, okay, maybe I shouldn't do this right now at this point in my career. It actually might be more hurtful than helpful. So can you talk about that a little bit?
Starting point is 00:58:42 Are you talking about Chelsea or? I mean, not just Chelsea, but. Well, I wrote about Chelsea when I passed on her sidekick, you know what I mean? And I was working at Nordstrom Racks selling shoes. She wanted you to be Chewy? Basically, I was supposed to be her sidekick. And we went all the way through, you know what I mean? Until like, you know, just before and I and I gave her that call this is why I love Chelsea man she's amazing I should have recorded the phone call but uh I just told her I was like I don't want to be I don't want to do that I want to I want to be known for me like I don't want to do a show where I'm the sidekick or that I want to be
Starting point is 00:59:20 Joe Coy and but I love your show but just, I feel like I need to pursue this. And man, I'm telling you, she cursed me. I wish she was on the phone right now. That was a good positive thing. Like, no, do your thing. I'll tell you, you can bleep everything out. She's like,
Starting point is 00:59:38 she was like, you're never going to get anywhere, Joe. Keep listening to these agents. You don't know a good thing when it hits you in the ass. Like she was laying into me. Good luck. This show is going to be a hit. You go yourself. No, no, no, no, no, Chelsea.
Starting point is 00:59:51 I'm sorry. No, no, no, no, no, no. Worst decision ever. Watch what happens, Joe. Worst decision. And then just hangs up on me. You could have been my little nugget, you face. But you want to be my little nugget.
Starting point is 01:00:03 Yeah. But it says about her that she still let you be a regular yeah unbelievable unbelievable that's why she's she's the best she knew she knew what that panel wanted she knew what that panel was all about she knew that she had to like that that panel was a unit you know what i mean and she needed all the pieces yes chelsea was the face and the voice. And you know what I mean? But she also knew that it took the three other people on that panel for that show to just blow up.
Starting point is 01:00:32 And that's why she's amazing. She recognized that. She's amazing. By the way, she was 100% right when she hung up the phone. Because the show took off and I was working at Nordstrom Rack. And my ex-wife at the time picked me up at Nordstrom Rack and as we're driving home she goes, do you know Chelsea Handler? And I go, why? And she's like, her show's hysterical. And I was just like,
Starting point is 01:00:52 f*** me. When I think of Chelsea Handler's show, I think of you. I think of you, Chewy, Brad and Lonnie Love. I'm dead serious. Those are the four people I think about on the panel all the time. Oh, man, I love you, man.
Starting point is 01:01:07 That show is amazing. And that's another thing. She was like the modern-day Johnny Carson. You remember the old rumor? Well, not a rumor. It was a real thing. When Johnny Carson liked you, he called you over to the couch, and if he called you to the couch, you made it.
Starting point is 01:01:21 You're going to make it. That's what Chelsea was. If you killed on that panel, you made it. And're going to make it. That's what Chelsea was. If you killed on that panel, you made it. And here's another thing about Chelsea, a little inside. If you sucked on that panel, she would literally tell the booking guy in front of everybody.
Starting point is 01:01:35 She'd whisper, but basically be like, it's the last time. Dwear! Who'd that happen to? Who'd you remember that happened to? She did it all the fucking time, man. Chelsea would do it all the time. Dwear.
Starting point is 01:01:50 It was the funniest. Every time there was someone new on the panel, I would just like, it would always be after the first break. And right when we went to commercial, she'd just call them over and be like, yeah, let's go ahead and let's end that one. No more. Wow.
Starting point is 01:02:03 This is your weekend, right? Because you got a movie that you're supposed to be producing called east to sunday yeah can you believe it are you you're are you producing it are you i know you're gonna be in it but you want to produce it too yeah i'm producer uh steven you know steven spielberg amblin never heard of dan lynn yeah he's he's small independent director yeah uh and then of course dan lynn over at ride back uh those are the guys but yeah man steven it's amazing i can't believe what's happening it's crazy man you coming in hot by the way you said what coming in hot coming in hot my netflix special the second

That's our day.
Starting point is 01:03:25 So I want to show. Nothing to do with Jesus. Jesus is a close second. Like, yeah. Like, we'll get to him after the adobo, but he's in the room. What I told y'all, I said, Jesus headlines, no holidays, Joe. There's not one holiday that Jesus is sending around that he headlines. Not Easter, not Christmas.
Starting point is 01:03:44 Even when you think of Easter, you think of that goddamn bunny. Yeah, the bunny. That lays eggs, which is not even possible. Christmas is Santa Claus, the Grinch, Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Santa Claus headlines, no holidays, bro. Yep. That's crazy. And it's his birthday.
Starting point is 01:04:00 I mean, Jesus headlines, no holidays. That's crazy. What is that? What is that? He needs a new PR person. That's what is that? He needs a new PR person. That's what he needs. He needs a new PR person. You know what Jesus needs?
Starting point is 01:04:08 And I'm not even trying to be funny. The same beard that Envy has. Imagine Jesus with that beard. No, no. It won't look authentic. It almost looks like the bottom half of a motorcycle helmet. I was just going to thank you for sending me all the rules and stuff. Now I'm not thanking you.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Be careful because Envy will end this interview. Thank you so much, Joe Coy. Don't do that! Don't do that! Don't you do that! First you got everybody calling us a liar. You're a liar. Everybody calls us you're a liar. And you're proving it with your beard.
Starting point is 01:04:46 You're proving it by continuing to tell us that your beard is real. Hey, Evie, just paint the rest of your neck. That way people will believe you. Shout out to Callie. Shout out to Kevin Hart. Just take that roller and go down here. You might as well. You might as well. You might as well.
Starting point is 01:05:06 I hate y'all, man. Oh, man. Well, Joe Coy, thank you for joining us, man. No. Man, you are. I didn't like this, man. Now, listen, Joe Coy, I got to say, and I told you this too, there's some really random-ass funny moments in this book,
Starting point is 01:05:19 and one of my favorites is that you were part of a crew called the Scarecrows. It was just the nerdiest crew, man. What the hell? It was just four nerds in elementary school, man. We were the Scarecrows, just nerds. I like that picture in the book, too, where you look so innocent with the glasses from high school. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:39 I can see why you would call yourself a Scarecrow. Right. Yo, man, why are you talking like you are f***ing handsome? Like, why? Yeah, you're old school. I know I'm much better. Hey, Charlamagne. I don't know if you've seen Envy's either. Mine was a little crazy.
Starting point is 01:06:00 Mine was a little crazy, too. Yeah. Charlamagne's acting like he was Michael B. Jordan in high school. You weren't. I'd have definitely been in the Scarecrow crew. I would have definitely been in the Scarecrow crew earlier, too. I wonder if Michael B.
Starting point is 01:06:12 Jordan was Michael B. Jordan in high school. Yes, Michael B. Jordan was always Michael B. Jordan. Yes, he's one of those guys that everyone thought he was hot. I don't think so. According to L'Oreal, she went to high school with him,
Starting point is 01:06:27 and she said they used to make fun of him in high school. See? Man, she is a liar. Who is this? Who is this? No one liked her. She said he had it. No one liked her.
Starting point is 01:06:38 She said he had it. No one liked her. No one liked her. Who is this? What's her name? What's her name, Angela? What's her name? I'm not going to say.
Starting point is 01:06:45 Say her name. Say her name. Because his name is Michael Jordan. She said, so that was already tough, like, to be named Michael Jordan. What's that got to do with looks? Your friend L'Oreal is a liar. You need to stop hanging out with liars, Angela. Anyone, anyone, anyone that says Michael B. Jordan wasn't good looking like 10 years ago,
Starting point is 01:07:08 that's a lying bitch right there. You are a liar. Listen, tweet us. I want to see old Michael B. Jordan high school pictures. Tweet us, Breakfast Club AM, or tweet Joe Coy. Show us Michael B. Jordan high school pictures. We can figure this out quite easily. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Oh, very fast. Oh, and also tweet L'Oreal's last name because she's a liar. L'Oreal's going to get you, bro. She does radio in D.C. L'Oreal don't bite her tongue. Oh, God. Don't listen to her. Don't listen to her show, D.C.
Starting point is 01:07:39 That whole show is a lie. Oh, my goodness, man. Listen, go get Mixed Plate, Chronicles of an All-American Combo. That whole show is a lie. That is crazy. Listen, go get Mixed Plate Chronicles of an All-American Combo. All right? Joe Coy's autobiography. It's a great read. It's fantastic. You didn't even read it.
Starting point is 01:07:56 Hey, Charlamagne. Charlamagne. I got a new nickname for you. You want to know what it is? What is it? L'Oreal. You f***ing liar. That's Charlamagne's new nickname.
Starting point is 01:08:15 I want everyone to hashtag L'Oreal, a.k.a. Charlamagne. I love L'Oreal. Joe Craig, goodbye, man. We love you. I love you guys. We love you back. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. I can't wait till L'Oreal claps back at Joe Coy.

Guaranteed. Well, let's L'Oreal. Oh, she coming for you, Jokoy. All right. Guaranteed. Well, let's get to the rumors.
Starting point is 01:08:47 Let's talk Jeezy and Jeannie Mai. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:09:01 Well, I'm sure as you all know by now, Jeezy and Jeannie Mai have gotten married and they are donating their wedding registry funds to the Stop Asian Hate movement. They reported a charity registry and they're hoping to raise $50,000 for Stop Asian Hate. She said, What bonded Jeezy and I most is our passion to serve and take care of our communities. We will spend the rest of our lives continuing to stand up against injustice, racism, and hate. It's not just the recent events that make me mindful about our distinct culture. For Jeezy, everything from his upbringing, experiences, struggles,
Starting point is 01:09:33 and his position in this white-centric country is a learning curve for me and vice versa. Part of the foundation of our love is constantly discovering our respective identities and gaining an understanding from our experiences. Okay. That's a good call. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. All right, now, JT is defending her man,
Starting point is 01:09:51 Lil Uzi Vert, and she's tired of y'all weighing in and making assumptions. Now, if y'all recall, this all started with Lil Uzi Vert having a back-and-forth with Young Miami on Instagram Live. So listen, is this Carisha?
Starting point is 01:10:04 Uzi, man, you don't have to be crazy. I don't care, Carisha. Carisha, Carisha. That's understood. back and forth with Young Miami on Instagram Live. Clearly, I run this s***. Carisha, shut up. JT, JT, JT, JT. If I told you tongue kiss me on this live right now, you gonna do it. So just chill. You saw what I said to you, Carisha, because you left me on scene. You left me on scene. And I will say, Young Miami plays a lot. Like, if you ever see her and Saucy Santana going at it on social media and on Instagram, like, maybe they are just joking. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:10:43 But if it was an inside joke a lot of people took it seriously and here is jt defending her man little uzi vert and the whole conversation that went down with young miami y'all oh she only let him talk to her like that because he about i've been having i only show y'all 10 if i show y'all the whole hundred y'all to be dying talk about something he disrespecting me because he said, shut up. Y'all say shut up all the time. When I'm trying to get my conversation, when I'm trying to talk and get my point across with my friends, I be like, shut up, shut up, girl. Let me talk.
Starting point is 01:11:15 Okay. And in addition to that, she also defends the two of them going back and forth, him talking to young Miami on live in a disrespectful way. That was an inside joke. He was literally talking in cold. And after that said he loved playing some more shit. When did he call her a bitch? A lot of y'all bitches on the internet be painting pictures. That's why I was taking his phone.
Starting point is 01:11:33 He was too turned up. Telling me I had to feed my friend. Carisha mouth slick as shit. My mouth slick as shit. That girl ain't going to sit there and let nobody. She could have easily ended live if she felt this way. That girl knew we was playing. We was just on FaceTime before we got on live.
Starting point is 01:11:46 Get the f*** out of here. Y'all want to make it so bad. She wouldn't defend her friends. She held the group down. And they're breaking up. Never. I have no idea what's going on. But I don't be minding young folks' business, man.
Starting point is 01:11:57 You know what I'm saying? Yeah, and Young Miami and JT were clearly together over the weekend. I saw they had a photo shoot. They were posting pictures together. So their friendship is fine and intact. It's just people weighing in. They went live. People didn't like how Uzi was talking to young Miami.
Starting point is 01:12:12 So that's basically what happened. I don't care. I don't mind young folks' business. You got to let young folks be young folks. If they say they playing, they playing. What am I going to say? No, they not playing? They playing.
Starting point is 01:12:22 I mean, clearly JT cares. That's why she explained it all for everybody to see on social media. Because people taking it serious, but they said they're playing. Right, so that was us playing that so people would understand. YFB, young folks business. Let them have it. All right, now Boosie Badass was upset after he got mistaken for Flavor Flav in the airport. Now, this is my demo.
Starting point is 01:12:43 This is funny. This is funny now. This is funny now. This is funny now. I'm up here walking through the mall, man, and motherfuckers is running up to me talking about... That's the wrong one! ...little boozy. That's don't stop it!

Flav, you can't f*** with me, man. All right, well, Flavor Flav, Flav. Like, Boosie, f*** you early in the morning for this s***. Flav, you can't f*** with me, man. All right, well, Flav of Flav responded to Boosie talking about getting mistaken for Flav of Flav. I'm up here walking through the mall, man, and motherf***ers is running up to me talking about Lil Boosie.

Starting point is 01:13:32 That picture, when he took his mask off, I was like, he can't. I can see it. Boosie and Flav and Flav have a real resemblance. They would have definitely been in the same tribe. Especially with the same glasses. He said, that's why I don't wear these damn red glasses. I get him. I wouldn't wear them again either. If they did some type of movie or something in the future, I can see Flav
Starting point is 01:13:52 playing Boosie's, you know, pops or uncle or something. It's a resemblance. Alright, well that is your rumor report. Alright, thank you, Miss Yee. Charlamagne, who you giving that donkey to? Oh, man. Well, actually, we need to try to find this person this morning.

Starting point is 01:15:33 The Young King, Relly on Smash put me on the big scar from Memphis this weekend. So, yeah, Memphis got now, okay, when it comes to the rap game. They are having it their way. So I can understand why this young woman who is receiving Donkey of the Day this morning is upset that she could not have it her way when she pulled up to a Burger King in Memphis. God bless Burger King. I will never have anything negative to say about Burger King. So many of us have so many memories attached to the establishment known as Burger King. Okay, nothing like ordering a number one with cheese, large fries, and a vanilla or chocolate milkshake when you a kid.
Starting point is 01:16:08 Your parents make you get a Whopper Junior. Then you get older, you upgrade to the big boy Whopper. Okay, that quarter pound of savory flame-grilled beef topped with juicy tomatoes, fresh lettuce, and just a dab of mayonnaise, just a little, with ketchup, pickles, onions on that damn sesame seed bun, man. And if you're feeling bougie, if you understand the finer things in life, you ask them to cut that whopping half for you. Okay, and if you're really adventurous, you dip those french fries in that milkshake for a sweet salt experience that your mouth will appreciate. Now, let the record show, I haven't eaten that Burger King in years, okay?
Starting point is 01:16:43 A couple decades, maybe all my Burger King experiences came in my teens. But you don't forget them because they are indeed an amazing eating experience. But never in my life have I wanted a Whopper so bad that I was willing to take a penitentiary chance to get one. But this young woman clearly loves chicken fries more than most because she pulled up to this Burger King drive-thru in Memphis and was pissed off about the wait time. Now, I don't know what the wait time was, but if the wait time was happening because it was a lot of people in the drive-thru or because they just dropped some hot fries, I can understand. But this woman in Memphis couldn't. Let's go to ABC 740 Report, please. Memphis police are looking for this woman. We're told it all started when she got angry about how long she
Starting point is 01:17:25 was waiting in the drive-thru for her food at Burger King on Winchester Road. Police say she got out of her car, walked up to the drive-thru window, started arguing with an employee, then began shooting. Surveillance video shows employees running for cover. No one was injured. I don't remember the original chicken sandwich being that good. That white meat chicken lightly breaded and topped with a simple combination of shredded lettuce, light mayonnaise on a sesame seed bun. I would add cheese and pickles, but I don't remember it being good enough to lick
Starting point is 01:17:53 shots. The news report said nobody was injured, but who cares? As long as this woman is on the street, nobody is safe, and someone will eventually get injured because she's clearly two nuggets short of a ten piece. Now, I could victim blame in this situation. OK, I could put this all on Burger King.
Starting point is 01:18:10 All right. See this little saying right here. Remember this little saying? Have it your way. Yeah. This little jingle. Remember this little jingle? Have it your way.
Starting point is 01:18:18 Yeah, man. Have it your way. That's right. Have it your way. See? Everybody in here bopping their head. Nice. You know what that jingle did? It created way. See, everybody in here bopping their head. Nice. You know what that jingle did?
Starting point is 01:18:26 It created a sense of entitlement in people all over the world. What does have it your way mean? It means to do what one wants to do despite the desires, plans, etc. of other people. If you say have it your way, you are telling someone in an annoyed way that you will agree with or accept their suggestion, even though you do not think they are right. That have it your way slogan is another way of saying the customer is always right, which is also some BS. No, the customer is not always right. And sometimes the customer is not going to have things their way, but when you tell customers they can have it their way,
Starting point is 01:18:59 you create a sense of entitlement in humans that some humans like this woman take advantage of. OK, you can't tell her it's a wait time when having it her way means there is no wait time. Having it her way means having it right now. And a person will feel like you disrespecting them and not living up to their word if you don't give it to them their way. Now, it was brought to my attention this morning that Burger King actually changed this slogan back in 2014. Did anybody know that? So it's no longer have it your way.
Starting point is 01:19:28 It's be your way. It says it reflects the customer's way of life rather than the chain's food and service. Be your way. Okay? We don't want that either, Burger King. See, some of these people don't need to come into your establishment being their way. That's what this woman did. This woman came to Burger King and couldn't have it her way, so she decided to be her way,
Starting point is 01:19:48 and her way was to shoot up Burger King, okay? Burger King released a statement back in 2014. They said the new motto was intended to remind people that they can and should live how they want anytime. It's okay to not be perfect. Self-expression is most important, and it's our differences that make us individuals instead of robots. I totally agree with most of that. Okay, but that, you know,
Starting point is 01:20:09 but that does not apply to the woman who just, but does that apply to the woman who just expressed herself in the most aggressive way by shooting up Burger King? Yes, nobody's perfect, but even in all my imperfections,
Starting point is 01:20:20 I've never thought to shoot up a fast food restaurant because I didn't like the wait time. Speaking of the wait time, young lady, if you're out there in Memphis listening, you're listening to Charlemagne, the God, Lenard, Uncle Charla, whatever you want to call me. I have one question for you. Did shooting up the fast food restaurant speed up the wait time or slow it down even more? Did you think he was just going to shoot up the Burger King and then employees were going to make sure you, you know, got your food ASAP? Did you even get your food at all? Probably not.
Starting point is 01:20:46 So what was the point? You've listened to Pooh Shiesty's Back in Blood one too many times. I don't think he meant that in regards to being pissed at Burger King. Young Dolph and Key Glock got an album called Dumb and Dumber Part 1 and 2. Well, you are the dumbest, young lady. Please give this unidentified woman in Memphis the biggest he are. I don't know, man. I don't know. lady. Please give this unidentified woman in Memphis the biggest e-haw. E-haw! E-haw!
Starting point is 01:21:09 I don't know, man. I don't know. You're not gonna play a game? You really want to play a game? Okay, sure. Why not? Since we're all here, might as well. Let's play a game of Guess What Race It Is! Now, mind you, we don't know her name, but there is let's play a game of Guess What Race It Is.
Starting point is 01:21:29 Now, mind you, we don't know her name, but there is a video. So you can clearly see, you know, what this young woman's race is. Let's start with you, Angelie. Young woman, mad at the wait time at Burger King, decided to shoot the whole place up in Memphis. Guess what race it is. I'm going to say say Caucasian Okay, okay Why'd you say that?
Starting point is 01:21:47 Not a bad guess Why, all the mayonnaise? Maybe Is there a Chick-fil-A nearby? Mmm I don't know Okay I don't know
Starting point is 01:21:55 Okay, so Angelina says Caucasian DJ Envy A young woman in Memphis Decided to shoot the Burger King up Because she did not like the wait time Guess what race she is? Black. Wow.
Starting point is 01:22:08 Damn, damn, damn. I don't like your tone in your voice, bro. I'm just saying that. Why, why? We don't do wait time after a certain amount of time. I want my food right now. I've been waiting all goddamn day. Give me my food.
Starting point is 01:22:22 You think a black person would be stupid enough to shoot up a Burger King because they didn't have it that way You heard what I said bro You think black people Have that type of sense of entitlement You heard what I said bro Okay
Starting point is 01:22:30 Well DJ Envy Angela Yee One of y'all is right One of y'all is wrong The winner of today's Guess what race it is It's DJ Envy

Starting point is 01:22:52 Telling you that right now. Jeez. All right? There's a difference. I just couldn't see a black woman doing something like that. A black woman
Starting point is 01:22:58 didn't do this. A n***a woman? Absolutely. Okay? Oh, my gosh You got your N-word quota for today I just want to tell you that too I wouldn't have to use the N-word
Starting point is 01:23:09 If we didn't do N-word activities Okay Alright Alright well thank you for that donkey today Where we going next Shee? Well today We are discussing what's going on With JT and Young Miami
Starting point is 01:23:20 And Lil Uzi Vert You know They've been having some back and forth On social media People felt like they didn't like How Lil Uzi was talking to Young Miami, even though they've cleared up that they were all just joking. But my question is, have you ever dated somebody who your closest people didn't like? And how did you handle that?
Starting point is 01:23:37 All right. 800-585-1051. Let's talk about it. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:23:56 Let's talk about it. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, what are we talking about, Yee? Well, we're talking about whether or not you've ever dated somebody who your friends and maybe even your family doesn't like. And this all came from the whole JT, Lil Uzi Vert, Young Miami issues that happened on social media. Even though JT says they were just playing, a lot of people were weighing in and saying what they thought.
Starting point is 01:24:23 So what do you do when your friends don't like your significant other? Alright, has that happened to you, Yee? Hell yeah. Listen, I had an ex-boyfriend. My parents hated him. I actually had to move out. They didn't like him at all. My friends didn't like him. He was terrible. And I think sometimes when your friends and family don't like somebody, it makes you
Starting point is 01:24:39 go really hard for them. Like you find yourself defending that person even more. And even though you might have said, okay, maybe they're right, you don't want them to be right. So you go really hard to try to prove them wrong. And I think that's sometimes what ends up happening. Now, Charlamagne, I'm sure your wife's friends
Starting point is 01:24:55 didn't like you at first. No, I mean, I had a couple of family members, you know, who didn't like my now wife back in the day when we were in high school. My now wife's father didn't necessarily care for me because of the type of life that I was living. But I tend to mind my business when it comes to the affairs of the heart
Starting point is 01:25:13 because if somebody doesn't like your significant other, so what? Yeah. It don't matter because at the end of the day, you may express that, but guess what? You're either going to be right or you're going to be wrong. There's no in between. I may express it to somebody
Starting point is 01:25:26 and be like yo I don't like that person for X, Y, and Z reasons but that person is still going to do what they want to do and if they end up together and live happily ever after then you were wrong
Starting point is 01:25:34 if they break up you know and it ends badly you were right so it's just like I tend to mind my business when it comes to affairs of the heart I used to hate
Starting point is 01:25:41 one of my good friends her boyfriend at the time her child's father because he was abusive toward her but it was nothing I could say or do that my good friends, her boyfriend at the time, her child's father, because he was abusive toward her. But it was nothing I could say or do that's going to make her leave him. And so I would say how I felt, but then I always would be supportive of her whenever she needed anything until things really hit the fan. And she ended up having to leave him because it was a dangerous situation. But, you know, sometimes it's hard to tell somebody you don't like the person they're with because then they avoid you.
Starting point is 01:26:04 There's a big difference when you're telling somebody you don't like the person you're with and them being abusive, though. Because when the person is abusive, you're probably going to step to the person that's doing the abusing. But just because you just don't like a person, I just don't like that person for you. I'm not going to say nothing to that guy or that girl. I'm going to say something to my people and keep it moving. Yeah, my wife's mom, not that she didn't like me. She thought I was too immature, which I was. This is recently, right? No, no. This is when I was 16. Because remember, I like me, she thought I was too immature, which I was. This is recently, right?
Starting point is 01:26:25 No, this is when I was 16, because remember, I was 16, she was 15, and I was. She was my first real girlfriend. It's like I'm learning. I was shy. I didn't know how to really talk. I didn't know how to communicate. What's changed? Yes, I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:26:42 This is recent. A couple of years later, she became one of my second moms. She's harmless. She was the one that really pushed me into staying into music when everybody was really trying to get me to get a job with a hat on. So she's like my second mom. What does she think about your fake beard? I would love to know what your mother-in-law thinks because you look very suspicious.
Starting point is 01:27:00 She has dementia. She doesn't remember it. Whoa. See? Now I can't even play with this guy. See? You know what I'm saying? Now what do you say about that? Why would you say that? Why would you say that? You still got jokes there?
Starting point is 01:27:07 Why would you say that? Why would you say that? You still got jokes there? This guy, why would he do that? Hello, who's this? This is Andrew. Andrew, good morning. Good morning, y'all.
Starting point is 01:27:19 What's going on? So we're asking, you ever been in a situation where maybe you didn't, you know, family members or friends didn't like your girl or vice versa? Yeah, my girl's friends, my girl's friends don't like me right now. Why not? Because I changed her for the better. You changed her? It never works like that. How, King?
Starting point is 01:27:40 How did you change her? Thank you, Charlamagne. Now, when I met her, she was shy. She was insecure. And, you know, I kind of raised her up and made her feel like the woman that she is. And her friends are all hating. I respect it. You gave her confidence. You gave her self-esteem.
Starting point is 01:27:55 And her friends don't understand it. Her friends like her when she's down. Right? Exactly. She spends more time with me than she was with them, which I'm thinking that's a no-brainer. You're going to spend the time with the person that makes you feel loved, not the person that makes you feel hated. Drop one of these bombs for this kid right here. So you don't like her friends either, I take it.
Starting point is 01:28:12 Nah, screw them. So what are her friends? They out in the club all the time? They hanging out? During a pandemic? What do they do? Yeah, during the pandemic, they out. They're annoying, bruh. They just make her feel bad about herself. They exclude her from a lot of activities now because, you know, she's with me all the time.
Starting point is 01:28:29 They haven't liked me from the jump, but, you know. Yeah, I respect you. They just jealous you giving your girl that glow and all the men they dating only giving them yeast infections. It ain't your fault they pH balances out of whack because they dating uncircumcised men. You keep doing your thing, King. When y'all get into an argument and she go to her friends,
Starting point is 01:28:47 they all gonna be like, leave him. That's jealousy. Don't listen to them. We've been together for over a year so she's not going nowhere right now. All right, man. Salute to you, young king. And by the way, don't be that group of friends that's so upset that your friend got a good man or good woman and you like, you should leave
Starting point is 01:29:04 him. He ain't no good for you. She not in the club no more. She ain't in the streets. She just at home chilling with her man. Y'all made a whole narrative. I know we did. It sounded good, though. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 01:29:14 Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I know it now. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it.
Starting point is 01:29:20 They can know me. You know what's up? Call me. Send your opinion to the Breakfast Club topic Come on 800-585-1051 Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy, we are the Breakfast Club Now if you just join us, what are we talking about Yee?
Starting point is 01:29:38 We're talking about whether or not you've ever dated somebody who none of your friends liked So let's go to the phone lines Hello, who's this? Danielle Hey Danielle, you ever dated a guy none of your friends liked? So let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Danielle. Hey, Danielle. You ever dated a guy none of your friends liked? Yeah, I still am. We're still together now.
Starting point is 01:29:53 Okay, so we argue a lot, like a lot. And he's from Chicago and I'm from Cleveland. So it's like, I feel like that's just, you told me our personalities or whatever. Like, we come from rough city, so we don't argue and stuff like that. But, like, it's my baby dad. We just had a baby eight months ago. Okay.
Starting point is 01:30:22 And so, like, people, like, even my mom, she just feel like I'll be better if I left. But I just feel like we're young, we don't argue. And I'm working, like, I just had a baby, so you feel me? I'm working on myself now. My attitude and stuff like that. But I don't know. My friends don't, they just want me to leave. They say they're not. I ain't never really, to me, stayed with somebody like this long before.
Starting point is 01:30:40 How long y'all been together? How long y'all been together? I'm a five-year. Aw, come on. That's bae. That's bae. Well, here's the thing. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:30:52 When you with somebody that you love, your family don't got to like them. Your friends don't got to like them. As long as that man isn't hurting you, you know what I'm saying, physically or mentally or emotionally, and he's actually good for you, that's you. Why do they not like him? That's the thing, though. He is a little emotional abusive. Like I said, I just had a baby so he'll throw my postpartum in my face.
Starting point is 01:31:12 Wow. That does not sound like a pleasant... Yeah, I think your friends have the right idea about not liking him. Yeah, it's like he'll be like one day he told me my life is or I'm going through it right now or something like that because I'm going to
Starting point is 01:31:28 postpartum. Yeah I don't like him too. I mean I don't like him too. It's like he gets mean when he's like he gets mad and then he gets mean and then all of a sudden he didn't mean it. He manipulative and emotionally abusive
Starting point is 01:31:44 sometimes. Damn. That doesn't sound like a great mixture right there for you. Yeah, it doesn't sound too positive. Sometimes when everybody doesn't like somebody, there's legitimate reasons. But thank you, mama. You're welcome. Hello.
Starting point is 01:31:55 What? Hey. Hello? Hello, you all right? Good morning, good morning. What was that noise you just made? You all right, bro? I was trying to make y'all hurry up because I got to go.
Starting point is 01:32:04 So, nah, this is Vic from North. Oh, you got to go. Oh, you got to. All right, then go. was trying to make y'all hurry up because I got to go. So, nah, this is Vic from North. Oh, you got to go. Oh, you got to. All right, then go. Let's see what you got to say. Bye. You got to go somewhere. Hello?
Starting point is 01:32:11 Yeah, go ahead, bro. Come on. I'm actually with someone now that a few friends of mine didn't care for. Okay. They got so bad to where they tried to break us up. I'm playing on her phone to make her break up with me, but it didn't work. Damn, they must really not like her. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:32:30 Yeah, I had to let them go. She didn't do anything to me. It's just they didn't want her with me because I used to be being alone. Damn, why would they not want you to be happy? I don't know. It's just them being selfish. So at the end of that, can I just give a shout out to her? Sure.
Starting point is 01:32:45 All right, I'm giving a shout out to Aletethea, my fiancee, future wife-to-be. I love you, and I'll see you later. All right. All right, there you go. All right, thank you, brother. So what's the moral of the story, guys? I mean, listen, the moral of the story is I tend to mind my business, but once again, when it comes to affairs of the heart,
Starting point is 01:32:59 I tend to mind my business. But as long as the person isn't physically, emotionally, or mentally abusing you, I'm not going to intervene because, you you know it's just like a dream almost right like when you have a dream you can't tell nobody else your dream because they might try to talk you out of it and they're not supposed to see your vision but sometimes when you in love you you miss a lot of things you make excuses and sometimes that good friend that's there for really for you can say hey you know this is this is not right like a relationship shouldn't be like that so right people can see when you're acting different and you've changed and not in a good way from
Starting point is 01:33:28 a relationship where somebody's very controlling over you and things like that. And that's when there's some red flags. But all you can do, you can never talk somebody out of being with someone. You can express how you feel as a good friend and make sure that they know that you're always there. But sometimes there's just nothing you can do about it. That's why I said as long as it's not physically, mentally, or emotionally abusive. Other than that, I don't have no reason to intervene just because I don't like somebody.
Starting point is 01:33:51 All right. Well, we got rumors on the way? Yes, let's talk about Issa Rae. You know, Insecure, this is the final season. Is she ready to let it go? We'll tell you what she said. All right, we'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:34:01 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Oh, my gosh. Well, Regé-Jean Page will not be appearing in season two of Bridgerton, so we will not have the Duke back.
Starting point is 01:34:28 Now, Envy, I saw that you were going really hard trying to actually get casted in that role. How is that working for you? Yeah, my agents are on it, man. We got some things in the works. Oh, yeah? Maybe. You're going to have to send a headshot without that fake beard, though. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:34:43 Because the Duke didn't have no beard at all. Now, Reggae posted, The ride of a lifetime. It's been an absolute pleasure and a privilege to be your Duke, joining this family not just on screen but off screen, too. Our incredibly creative and generous cast, crew, outstanding fans. It's all been beyond anything I could have imagined. The love is real and will just keep growing.
Starting point is 01:35:01 Now, that's a scripted show, right? Mm-hmm. Okay. It's based on a book, though. Okay, so why did he leave? Did they say why? Well, they're not focused on him in this new season. So right now, this new season is for Lord Anthony Bridgerton,
Starting point is 01:35:13 who is trying to find his wife. Yeah, man, so many people hit me up and was like, this dude is leaving, you know, you should do it. You know, so I'm thinking about it, man. I'm thinking about it. I'm weighing my options right now. How would Gia feel about you having to kiss other women on screen? You know what I'm thinking about it man I'm thinking about it I'm weighing my options right now how would Gia feel about you having to kiss other women on screen you know what I
Starting point is 01:35:28 mean being intimate with other women on screen yeah cause it gets very sexy on Bridgerton well let me get the part first then we can have that conversation but she's very supportive and wants me to do whatever I want to do that makes me happy so you know I'm a thespian if you don't know and went to acting school
Starting point is 01:35:43 I think it's despian not thespian I say don't know I went to acting school I think it's thespian not thespian I say it your way tomato tomato I've been in a couple of movies you can look me up I do my thing web movies? just look me up I think you leaving those beard stains all over the place isn't going to work on set so once again get rid of the fake beard
Starting point is 01:35:59 and you might have a chance maybe you'll have a chance on the new season of Insecure season 6 six, Envy. That's funny. Why are you laughing, Envy? I think that's a great segue, okay? Now, Issa Rae is talking about this upcoming fifth season of Insecure being the last one.
Starting point is 01:36:18 Here's what she had to say. Are you ready to let it go? I'm definitely ready to let it go. I knew that I wanted to end it after five seasons, and I feel like I'm really proud of this season that we're shooting now. It's so much fun. And it's made me appreciate the show in a different way. So are Issa and Lauren going to like trot off in the sunset somewhere?
Starting point is 01:36:35 Is that what you want? I think so. Yes. Well, I guess you just have to watch. I respect it. Everything comes through. Five seasons is not enough I feel like I need it more
Starting point is 01:36:46 that was my show by the way I don't know if you saw this but on Hollywood Unlocked I guess Envy was campaigning yeah I saw that that's why I said it I'm looking at the comments
Starting point is 01:36:53 what'd they say Keisha Capri definitely not Elizabeth Flores no period absolutely no five fully on what's with the hate
Starting point is 01:37:00 Laurenetta no somebody else said we don't want it somebody else said it's a hell no for me. Why are you reading this? It's so rude. Keisha and Purple said, envy Duke with his Daisy Dukes.
Starting point is 01:37:11 See, she can see it. Wow. No, she said, envy Duke with his Daisy Dukes. She wants to see me in Daisy Dukes. She wants me to get the part. I mean, it is what it is. You got haters all the time in your life. Like, what's the thing that you say?
Starting point is 01:37:22 Three people say no. Three people say yes. Three people, four people indifferent. These are indifferent people. It's the rule of you say? Three people say no, three people say yes, four people indifferent? These are the indifferent people. It's the rule of 10. I think it was 10 people said no in this. Yeah, and 10 people
Starting point is 01:37:30 all agree your beard is fake. Just want to throw that out there, too. Look, it is what it is. Oh. He's setting the alarm to put that Beijing on. It's time, Evie. It wears off at 9 o'clock.

That's just me having to pay for parking. You guys are just haters, man. I've never been. This is bullying. I'm going to have resources after this.
Starting point is 01:37:51 All right. Now, Meg Thee Stallion posted, I was too shy to tell her in person, but young Miami, I want to date.

I know your kids are on spring break, so your house is crazy right now. My house right now looks like Easter just exploded in the house. There's Easter eggs everywhere, candy everywhere, toys everywhere.
Starting point is 01:40:39 It's crazy. So everybody has off at the same time for spring break, or how does that work? That's a good question. It's usually around the same time after Easter, so they usually give you the week after Easter so the teachers can reboot and recharge and people get to go on vacation. Yeah, my daughter's out of school, too, for spring break sometimes. I feel like I need a spring break.

Starting point is 01:41:15 because you don't want to come off as racist or bigoted, my man James Altucher did a great job of not only asking his own questions, but crowdsourcing a lot of questions from white folks for this brilliant black brain trust that I put together. So thank you to everybody who's been downloading. We've got answers on Audible.
