0:55

Good morning Angela Ye it starts and

1:00

djmv's not here today now. I last saw

1:03

him in a cow outfit or something yesterday,

1:05

a cow cow outfit. Yeah, it was like some type

1:07

of cowboys suit or some cowprint.

1:10

It is New York City

1:12

Fashion Week, though, so this is the week where everybody

1:14

dresses up mad, weird and expensive

1:16

stuff that you know most

1:19

people would never wear. But since it's expensive

1:21

in name brand, they say it's fashion. Well,

1:23

if you look on Danielle Rowling's page, you could see the picture

1:26

of him of djm VY with Doctor OZ

1:28

wearing this outfit where he's just

1:31

like a cow and he has on some type of thong.

1:33

Why would he with doctor os for New York Fashion Week?

1:35

What do doctor I got to do with fashion? I don't know what he's

1:37

doing, but yeah, well, God

1:40

bless him. I personally don't partake in those

1:42

type of things. Literally, Like I think New York Fashion Week

1:44

is the stupidest thing in the world because they go to these shows

1:46

and if people be walking the runaway and stuff

1:48

that you never see somebody wearing the streets. So what's

1:50

the point. Well, I guess fashion is like art for

1:52

some of these designers, So they're just showing off

1:55

some outrageous outfits

1:57

and you know, some some of those things

1:59

are some of them are. Some

2:01

people do things that are just more like pieces of art.

2:03

If you are in the fashion business, it's

2:06

a big deal to see your favorite designers

2:08

and what they've created. Well, God blessed him.

2:10

My thighs hurt. I was doing them some high intensity

2:12

training yesterday, squats, oh my god,

2:15

like yes, with my cousin Tony, because he's

2:17

a trainer, so he was doing what he calls high intensity

2:20

training, and he's got this workout called the Mambo.

2:23

So it's literally like all

2:25

of these different numbers from different points

2:27

in Kobe's career. So it's like eighty one

2:29

jump ropes and twenty

2:32

four kettlebell squats. Just oh

2:35

it's oh my god. So my thighs hurt, very

2:37

very, very bad. This morning. Well, I saw that

2:39

Gail King is responding to some of that backlash

2:42

she got speaking that pressure.

2:44

You know, she said that the network put

2:46

out the most salacious part of

2:49

the interview and a lot of people didn't see the thing in its

2:51

entirety. But we'll talk about it. Yeah, you can't blame

2:53

the network for something that actually came out of your

2:55

mouth, though, you know what I mean. I love Gail King, but

2:57

nah, that interview with Lisa Lesley

3:00

was not in any way shape. Before we'll

3:02

talk about it, and then of course we're gonna get

3:04

into Front page News and talk about Donald

3:06

Trump and him

3:08

not getting impeached because we all knew

3:10

that wasn't gonna happen, of course, but

3:12

we'll tell you who filipped and

3:15

what meant. Rodney obviously met Rodney's one

3:17

who flipped, but he had to say and Donald Trump's

3:19

reaction. And this morning we got a nonprofit

3:22

organization coming in here. They're called Black

3:24

Men Heel Okay, Tasmine

3:26

Suliman, Zakia

3:29

Williams, and Charles Tank

3:31

Harris Man. I love this organization so much.

3:33

I read an article of this week this weekend in the Philadelphia

3:36

Inquired and they are a group of people

3:38

who are providing free therapy

3:40

for black men in Philadelphia, and

3:43

I love what they're doing so much. I want to know how we

3:45

can help empower them and help spread

3:47

what they're doing all throughout the country.

3:50

So we'll be talking to them later on this

3:52

morning. Okay, okay, now let's

3:54

get the show started. What's the song we got on the menu? Drum

3:59

d Richard, Oh, I musn't. And Rowley Rich

4:01

Okay, Roddy what I said, Roddy Rich.

4:03

There you go, Roddy Rich. I like Roddy rich It's the

4:05

Breakfast Club. Yeah, since almost dagers

4:08

want to show the Breakfast Club, Charlomagne and God Angela

4:10

y dj Envy is off today we

4:12

are front page Nugi. Yes, let's talk about

4:14

Donald Trump. He was acquitted on all charges

4:16

and the Senate impeachment trial. We knew that will

4:18

happen. Yeah, as a matter of fact, no president

4:20

has ever been removed from office via impeachment,

4:23

so that has never happened. Now,

4:25

the first article alleged abusive power,

4:28

and they did vote that down, and then they also voted

4:30

down against the second article, which alleged obstruction

4:32

of Congress. So they needed

4:34

to have at least two thirds of the members vote

4:37

to impeach him, and that did not happen. It

4:39

was party lines, you know, it's most the Senate

4:42

is controlled by the Republican. Sure,

4:45

nobody thought that was going to happen. But one

4:47

person who did vote against

4:49

one of those articles, who is a Republican,

4:51

is Mitt Romney. So he actually jumped over those

4:53

party lines. And

4:56

here's what Mitt Romney had to say as he got

4:58

emotional because his and guided

5:00

him. I swore an oath before

5:02

God to exercise impartial

5:05

justice. I am profoundly religious.

5:09

My faith is at the heart of who

5:11

I am. He goes

5:13

on oath

5:15

before God as enormously consequential.

5:18

I knew from the outset that being tasked

5:20

with judging the president, the leader of

5:22

my own party, would be the most difficult

5:24

decision I have ever faced. He

5:27

actually took a really longer pause than that, because

5:29

he got very emotional as he was talking

5:31

about his faith and actually

5:34

jumping over those party lines to vote to impeache

5:36

Donald Trump. I respect me Romney for that. I mean,

5:38

somebody has to have some morals and integrity in the Republican

5:41

Party. But I do have a question what is

5:43

impeachable? Like what actually gets the president

5:45

removed? Because Bill Clinton line under oath, Donald

5:47

Trump clearly abused his power, Like, what

5:50

is an actual impeachable of fits this

5:52

is? But you know, if your party

5:55

controls the Senate, then you just won't get a removed

5:57

from office. I don't think. I mean, I don't know, I

5:59

can't tell. I was like, this was abusive power

6:01

and obstruction of justice. I mean, the

6:03

Republicans admitted that it was an abusive power.

6:05

They just didn't feel like it was enough to remove him from office.

6:07

But I just wonder what will actually get you removed

6:10

from office? What would a president have to do to actually get removed

6:12

from office. Just so Steven,

6:15

is he can shoot somebody? I don't know, bro,

6:17

Yeah it might not. Donald Trump told you that he could walk

6:19

and walk up and shoot somebody in broad

6:21

daylight and wouldn't lose any support. I believe

6:23

him at this point, and you know, I saw that

6:25

his poland was the highest it's been for Here's

6:29

Mitt Romney talking more about Donald Trump committing

6:31

a crime. The great question the Constitution

6:33

tasks senators to answer is whether

6:36

the president committed an act so extreme

6:39

and egregious that it rises

6:41

to the level of a high crime and

6:43

misdemeanor. Yes he did,

6:46

What well? What is the bar for egregious

6:49

for Donald Trump? Though? Because now that Trump has gotten

6:51

away with this, what will he do next? Some

6:53

Democrats feel like they had to impeach him to show that the

6:55

checks and balances, and you can't get away

6:57

with committing crimes as president. Nobody no

6:59

presidents above the law. I agree with that, but being

7:01

that it had no effect on him whatsoever?

7:04

What will he do next? What is egregious

7:06

for Donald Trump? And Mitt Romney

7:08

also acknowledges that he knows there'll be a lot

7:10

of backlash, which, of course, I'm aware

7:12

that there are people on my party and in my state

7:15

who will strenuously disapprove

7:17

of my decision, and in some quarters

7:19

I will be vehemently denounced. I'm

7:22

sure to hear abews from the President and his supporters.

7:25

Does anyone seriously believe

7:27

that I would consent to these consequences

7:30

other than from an inescapable conviction

7:33

that my oath before God demanded

7:35

it of me. That's right, this high, some more shooters,

7:38

Mitt Romney, You'll be fine now, Donald Trump tweeted

7:40

out. Had failed presidential candidate Mitt Romney

7:42

devoted the same energy and anger to defeating

7:44

a faltering Barack Obama as he sanctimoniously

7:47

does to me, he could have won the election.

7:50

Read the transcripts. And then Donald

7:52

Trump said, I will be making a public statement

7:54

tomorrow at noon from the White House to

7:56

discuss our country's victory on the impeachment.

7:58

Hope I would Donald Trump would walk out on the White House

8:01

long and just start Millie rocking, Just just

8:03

go, just start dancing. Maybe

8:05

he should say nothing, just danced on their ass

8:07

one time. Yeah, Well, let's see what he does

8:09

and what he has to say. But you know he's gonna

8:12

his hands would be waving everywhere

8:14

in the air like he just don't care what I'm

8:16

talking about. Trump drop on the clues, but I'm just

8:18

slip. He might twork. All right, Well,

8:21

let men say, yeah, that is your front page news. That's

8:23

9:00

you. Good on to Charlemagne, both of y'all. Yeah,

9:04

I got a question for you. We am best

9:06

friend. We got a podcast called Make

9:09

and we've been doing it since last day

9:12

and we were trying. We've been trying to sit

9:15

you all the way to get it on, like you know, promoted

9:17

a look better, you know, because of we've

9:20

been trying different things. We got cars flyers,

9:23

things like that. We go around on Minu d chance

9:25

that of all and everything. Just want to know you

9:27

guys have like a couple of pointers on things

9:30

I can do to try to promote it a

9:32

little more. Well, your podcast

9:34

is online, so probably the best way to promote it would

9:36

be online, right, Yeah,

9:40

y'all have video, Yeah,

9:42

we do it all. We have it on YouTube

9:44

my people's and people that I know, I would

send them clips because you know, people are lazy, they're not

10:01

gonna make clips themselves, and ask them to please

10:03

post these clips and tag us in it. And

10:06

then I'll be reposting those and I'll always be trying

10:08

to grow my network and be very consistent and persistent.

10:11

It doesn't happen quickly or overnight.

10:13

It's a process. Another good way to promote

10:15

the show is to call into the Breakfast Club, who gets eight million

10:17

listeners a week, and just shout it out and tell people

10:19

13:03

I love you guys everything that you guys do. But

13:06

so the super Bowl, I was with it. One

13:08

thing that I thought was kind

13:10

of crazy is that everybody kept saying it was too

13:13

Spanish. The only song one I'm

13:15

sorry for becausing the only some one Specish

13:17

song the literally did it? Yeah?

13:19

She care was up right? Yeah? But it was

13:21

Spanish artist though it was Jay Looy, it

13:24

was not Spanish but Latino right, bad

13:26

Bunny. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I

13:29

enjoyed. I enjoyed it the halftime show, you

13:31

too, And then they said Beyonce was better, which,

13:34

to tell you the truth, I watched both Beyonce's

13:36

performance. She was singing Halo.

13:38

It wasn't so amped up like they really

13:41

got me going. Maybe because I'm Latino.

13:43

I don't know what it was. I thought it was much

13:45

familiar. Yeah, definitely because you're Latinos.

13:48

It wasn't good performance though, Yeah, but

13:50

they were saying it was too Latino. How's it too Latino?

13:53

She only sung one song in Spanish, like, I

13:55

get it because there was a bunch of Latinos up

13:57

there. I mean, I don't think it was too Latino, but it was a

13:59

bunch of Latinos up there. That was a great

14:01

representation. Yes, true,

14:03

Yeah, you're right, because maybe it's because I'm like, you

14:05

know, I just felt so proud. But okay,

14:08

16:17

Lisa Leslie and they were discussing

16:20

Kobe Bryan. Lisa Leslie was good friends with Kobe

16:22

Bryant, and here's what happened. It's been said

16:24

that his legacy is complicated because

16:27

of sexual assault charge, which was dismissed

16:29

in two thousand and three two thousand and four.

16:31

Is it complicated for you as a

16:34

woman as a w NBA player.

16:36

It's not complicated for me at all, even

16:38

if there's a few times that we even been at that club.

16:40

At the same time, Kobe's not the kind of guy, never

16:43

been like, you know, let's go

16:45

get that girl or tell her or send her

16:47

this. I have other NBA friends that are

16:49

like that. He was never

16:51

like that. I just never have

16:54

ever seen him being the kind of person

16:56

that would do something to

16:58

violate a woman or be a great sit in that way. I

17:01

need journalists to explain to me why is Kobe

17:03

bryant sexual sexual assault case

17:05

relevant right now? Like Kobe Bryant is dead.

17:07

If people had all those questions about that case, if

17:09

they felt that way about them, they should have addressed when you were

17:11

alive, right right. And here's

17:13

some more of what happened with her interview with Lisa Leslie

17:15

on CBS this morning. Is it even

17:18

a fair question to talk about it, considering

17:20

he's no longer with us and that it was resolved,

17:23

or is it really part of his history.

17:25

I think that the media

17:28

should be more respectful

17:31

at this time. It's like, if

17:33

you had questions about it, you've had

17:35

many years to ask him that. I don't

17:37

think it's something that we should keep hanging

17:39

over his legacy. I mean, it went

17:41

to trial, Yeah, it was the case. It was dismissed

17:44

because the victim in the case refused to testify,

17:47

so it was dismissed, and I think

17:49

that that's how we should leave

17:51

it. That question sounded out of context too,

17:53

because Gail was asking her, you know, do you think that it's even

17:55

worth talking about what she was talking about it, So

17:57

it sounded it sounded like that question was out

17:59

of context. It was interesting. I had this discussion with a

18:01

few people yesterday who also work in journalism,

18:04

because I did feel like I wouldn't

18:06

have asked that question, but other people

18:09

were like, well, it is something that was a

18:11

big deal during his and

18:13

it was brought up during the whole Oscar situation.

18:15

Again, I'm

18:18

just saying what other people are

18:20

saying and both sides of things. But you

18:22

know what, we're gonna let Gail King explain what

18:25

she was thinking when she asked that question. I

18:27

know that if I had only seen the

18:29

clip that you saw, I'd be extremely

18:32

angry with me too. I am mortified,

18:35

I'm embarrassed, and I am

18:37

very angry. Unbeknownst

18:39

to me, my network put up a

18:41

clip from a very wide ranging

18:44

interview totally taken out

18:46

of context, and when you see it that way, it's

18:48

very jarring. And yes, we talked about

18:50

that court case, and I wanted to

18:52

get Lisa's take on it as a friend who knew

18:54

him well. Well, at least Gail knows

18:56

that clip sounded nuts, all right,

18:59

But even if Lisa Leslie is Colby's

19:01

friend, why is she being asked about Colby's

19:03

old case? I just want to know what is the point? Did

19:06

Gila explain? What was the point? Is there a way

19:08

she could have asked it differently? I don't think it

19:10

should have been asked at all? And what if she would have said,

19:12

do you think it's unfair that this comes

19:14

up? Now? Yeah? Yeah, she did say that.

19:18

All right. Well, here's the more of what Gail King had to say. About the

19:20

backlash, and she posted this on her Instagram page.

19:23

It was very powerful when she looked me in

19:25

the eye as a member of the media to say

19:27

it's time for the media to leave it

19:29

alone and to back off. And at

19:31

the end when she said it's time to

19:33

leave it alone, I insisted that that part

19:35

be in the interview because I thought that it

19:38

put a nice button on that part of the conversation.

19:41

I talked to Lisa last night. I believe that

19:43

Lisa was okay with the interview, and

19:45

I felt really good about the interview. So

19:47

for the network to take the

19:50

most salacious part, when

19:52

taken out of context and put it up online

19:55

is very upsetting to me, and that's something I'm

19:57

going to have to deal with with them. So she's

19:59

blaming on the network basics, but she's basically saying,

20:01

there's so many other things you could have put up. You just

20:03

put that part up because it was the one that was going to get

20:05

the most attention, which you did. Now,

20:08

some people are not going to be forgiving

20:10

it all. For instance, Boosey took to his social

20:12

media and said this, dear king,

20:15

why them would you do something

20:17

like that? Why would you do that? To people.

20:20

You know what people going through, right, Why would you add

20:22

something question like this trying to torne

20:25

in somebody in me? You do that to

20:27

your own black people. And

20:29

Snoop Dog chimed in as well. Gil

20:31

king out of pocket for that?

20:34

What do you gain from that? I swear

20:36

to God, we're the worst. We expect

20:39

more from you, Gail. Don't you hang out

20:41

with Oprah? Why y'all attacking us?

20:43

We your people? You ain't coming after

20:46

Harvey Weinstein asking them dumb ask questions.

20:48

I get sick of y'all. I want

20:51

to call you one. Is it okay if

20:53

I call him one? Funky dog hit

20:55

bitch? Jesus Christ, listen,

20:58

he went too far? But who Snoopy

21:00

was okay because he asked somebody and

21:03

then he said it. I just think if we're gonna bring up

21:06

that that story about Kobe, tell the whole story.

21:08

You know what I'm saying. You gotta speak on how to accuse her. You

21:10

know, didn't want to go through with the trial, and she probably didn't want to

21:12

go through the trial because she didn't want everyden coming out against her,

21:14

like the fact they found Seeming and I have follicle

21:17

in the woman's panties that didn't belong to Kobe, but

21:19

at the young ladies mental state was in question, that she had

21:21

been hospitalized for a month before the years so that she

21:23

was taking an anti psychotic drug for schizophrenia

21:26

at the time of the incident. You gotta tell the whole story if you're

21:28

gonna tell it. And at the time Kobe did say in a

21:30

statement, although I truly believe this encounter between

21:32

this was consensual, I recognized

21:34

now that she did not and does not view

21:36

this incident the same way I did. That's right, and

21:38

that's why when he was alive, especially during

21:40

the after time, that should have been a broader discussion.

21:42

You know what I'm saying. Somebody should have asked him to

21:44

elaborate on that, especially in this era

21:47

of me two times up, where you

21:49

know what's not consent and what's consent was the topic

21:51

of discussion. That I would have been the perfect time to ask him that when

21:53

he was alive. And lastly, I just want to also

21:55

bring up, since we haven't been since,

21:58

they just discussed Harvey Weinstein and whyn't you asked

22:00

Harvey winsteing these questions? You know, Harvey on Weinstein

22:02

is still in New York. He has his rape

22:04

child going on in Manhattan. And Lauren

22:07

Marie Young, who's thirty years old. She was

22:09

testifying about how she was a model in New York

22:11

City before she moved to la at age twenty,

22:14

and she talked about being invited to an Oscar's

22:16

dinner for Harvey Weinstein. She said, I've

22:18

been to a couple of places where he had been in the past,

22:21

but I wasn't directly at his table, and she talks about

22:23

reaching out to him about a script. They had a

22:25

meeting, and they met at a bar. He

22:27

showed up and she said he was on his phone.

22:29

He started discussing what ideas we had in my script,

22:32

and he said, what about America's next Top Model? And I said,

22:34

no, I don't want to be on reality TV. At

22:36

some point, he said, let's finish this conversation. Follow

22:39

me upstairs. I have to get ready to present, and she said. They

22:41

went in the suite and that's when you

22:44

know. She said, he lured her into another room,

22:47

which was a bathroom. And she's

22:49

going to continue to take the stand by

22:51

the way today and get cross examined. But

22:53

she is the six women who is testified

22:56

on the stand. She's the final one for New

22:58

York. I really can't wait to see how to Harvey Wanstein

23:01

trial ends. She said, he showed

23:03

up naked behind her, unzipped her dress,

23:05

started pulling it down, and he was masturbating

23:08

and grasping her right breast and you

23:12

know, and she was screaming no, no, no while

23:14

he was doing it. And he said, this is what all actresses

23:16

do to make it. Harvey Wanstein's

23:19

trial should end in him getting some jail time. And

23:21

if it doesn't, I can't wait to hit with little Boosey has to

23:23

say about it. All Right, Well I'm Angela, yeah,

23:25

and that is your rumor report. That's right, we got front

23:27

23:56

it's the world most day this morning to show to Breakfast Club

23:58

Charlemagne and God Angela. Ye, d your envy is

24:00

not here today, But it's time for front page news.

24:02

What we got yet? Well, let's talk about

24:05

what's happening with the Iowa caucus right now.

24:07

They said ninety seven percent reporting is in and

24:10

former mayor Pete Buddhajadz he has a very

24:12

very very slim lead over Bernie Sanders

24:15

and so they're virtually basically

24:17

tied as all the results are coming in. And

24:20

they said, with ninety seven percent

24:22

of results reported, Elizabeth Warren

24:24

is in third place, followed by Joe Biden

24:26

and then Amy Klobish are Joe Biden is trash

24:29

bro. Joe Biden really is not good at running

24:31

for president. This is this third time, and he had

24:33

a three one lead and blew it. Now New Hampshire's

24:35

town Halls where yesterday and Joe

24:37

Biden spoke and he was talking

24:40

about him not doing well in Iowa. Well,

24:42

I think what happened. Well, look, let's put this in perspective.

24:44

There are a total of what forty four

24:46

delegates you're going to come out of that, and it looks

24:48

like it's going to break down somewhere between seven

24:50

and fifteen among the top four of us.

24:53

You need nineteen hundred dollargates to become the

24:55

president United States become a nominee.

24:58

So it's a I expected to do better,

25:00

and I expect that that our

25:02

organization would perform better. But the

25:04

fact is, I'm happy to be here

25:06

in New Hampshire. Yeah, but the only day

25:08

because you flew there, and he's also talking

25:10

about his struggles with stuttering.

25:14

Stuttering you think about it is the only

25:17

handicap that people still laugh about

25:19

it. When I was a kid, I talk

25:22

talk talk talk like that.

25:24

If I said you when I was a kid at a cleft

25:26

palate and people made fun of me right

25:28

with an arm, no one smile. I deal

25:31

with about fifteen stutters I keep in contact

25:33

with all the time. And so what I say

25:35

to any anybody out there who

25:37

stuttered, I'll give you my phone number, not a

25:40

joke, and they can call me. I'll give you a private

25:42

number. Wow. Okay,

25:45

I know one thing reality gonna hit the Biden campaign when

25:47

they played third or fourth in New Hampshire. That's

25:51

that's when reality gonna hit them. Elizabeth Warren

25:53

was also there and she spoke about

25:55

black women and how they made her better. One

25:57

of the groups I've spent a lot of time when

26:00

it is Black Women four. It's a wonderful

26:02

group of women who I have to say,

26:05

are really outspoken and there

26:07

I say it pushy, and I mean that in

26:09

the nicest meaning of

26:11

the word. They push me on

26:14

ideas, They give me

26:16

ideas, great ideas, and have helped

26:18

inform a lot of what I've done.

26:20

But they also called me out when I get it wrong, and

26:23

they called me out publicly when I've gotten

26:25

it wrong. And you know what, they were right to

26:27

do that, because ultimately I

26:30

want to be better, not just as a presidential

26:32

candidate, I want to be better as

26:35

a president. Listen to black women, You'll

26:37

never go wrong. Did you say Black Women four? Yeah?

26:39

What is that? That That sounds like they're showing up in the next Marvel

26:41

movie. What is black women for? This isn't I guess it's

26:43

an organization which I'm about to look up right now. That's

26:46

hard. This are like a group of WWE superstars.

26:48

The Black Women four and I have an update

26:50

on the coronavirus for you right now. They said

26:52

the death toll is

26:55

past five hundred and sixty as of now,

26:58

China has announced us that they're gonna have have

27:00

additional tariffs on seventy five

27:02

billion dollars worth of US imports

27:05

as they are trying to deal with this coronavirus

27:07

outbreak because the reduction affects

27:10

you as goods that China impose tarifs on last September.

27:12

Now right now, there is no cure, but the symptoms

27:15

are kind of fluish fever,

27:17

cought, trouble breathing. If you show these symptoms

27:20

and recently went to China, or if you've been in contact

27:22

with somebody who visited, experts do advise

27:24

that you go to the doctor right

27:26

now. That you also have the youngest patient infected with

27:28

the coronavirus's two newborn babies have

27:31

been infected, so one

27:33

is a thirty hour old newborn and

27:36

the baby's mother was also infected with the virus,

27:38

so there may be mother to infant

27:40

transmissions as well. They really need to change

27:42

the name of the coronavirus. Coronavirus don't

27:44

sound dangerous enough because when you think coronavirus, you think

27:46

it a beer. And people love coronas they

27:48

need something a little bit more like like like

27:51

like scary sounding other than coronavirus.

27:53

Give us an example. I don't know, I haven't thought of it,

27:55

but I just know coronavirus sounds like it goes great

27:57

with lime disease. So they just need to like really

28:00

really changed their name. Okay, well we'll

28:02

let them know. All right, Well,

28:04

let me ade lay and that is your front page news. That's

28:06

right, and coming up, we have an organization that I

28:09

love. They're called Black Men Hill. Assistant

28:12

named Tasnim Suliman as

28:14

well as Zakaya Williams and a brother

28:16

named Charles Tank Harris. And what they're doing

28:19

is so dope. They are providing free

28:21

therapy for black men in Philadelphia.

28:24

I read an article about them on in the Philadelphia

28:26

Inquired this weekend, and I had to reach out to them

28:28

and have them on the Breakfast Club because we really, really

28:30

really need to empower this organization.

28:32

So we'll talk to Black Men Hill when they come back, and

28:35

maybe you can find out how you can get some free therapy

28:37

too. Okay, it's a breakfast club. The

28:39

Breakfast Club. Yes,

28:44

it's the one most dangerous morning show to Breakfast Club Charlomagne

28:46

and God Angela Yee and we got some guests

28:49

in the building. Man, They are from this great

28:51

organization. It's a nonprofit organization

28:53

called black Men Hill and they

28:55

offer free mental health services for black

28:58

men in the Philadelphia area. How

29:00

are you all this morning? So good? Can everyone

29:02

introduce themselves? Yes, I am test

29:04

named Suleiman. I'm the founder of Blackman Hill.

29:07

I'm also a psychotherapist and my

29:09

name is a Kia Williams. I'm the co founder of Blackman

29:11

Hill. Charles Tann carras board member.

29:14

Okay, talk to us about black Men Hill. How did this

29:16

organization start? What

29:18

was the origins? So Blackman Hill

29:20

really like it started spun

29:23

out of the need that mass people

29:25

have, which is for more men of color

29:28

to go to therapy and to understand

29:30

how therapy, the treatment of therapy

29:32

can help heal a lot of trauma,

29:35

depression, anxiety, things that men are

29:37

not aware of and their mental health issues.

29:40

Oftentimes they're not even aware they might

29:42

have depression or anxiety. So

29:44

we really wanted to create a space of

29:47

an opportunity for more men to enter

29:49

therapy because I just felt like it's

29:51

a mass issue that a lot of people are talking

29:53

about. But we felt like people

29:55

are talking about it, but we need more than the awareness.

29:58

We want to actually like build this lution

30:00

and the resource for it. Yeah. I read the article

30:02

in the Philadelphia Inquired and the headline caught

30:04

me immediately. Its like organization providing

30:06

free therapy for black men?

30:09

How does that work? People can

30:11

go to our website and they fell

30:13

out our application, the client application. Once

30:16

they fell out our client application, it's

30:18

two steps. So then we send them an

30:20

in depth application and the end up

30:22

application gives them opportunity to look

30:24

within themselves and see what they really

30:26

need, you know, what type of therapy they may

30:29

need. After that, we pair them

30:31

with the clinician of color according

30:33

to their specialty, the need

30:36

proximity, and their hours

30:38

that they're available. Like, oh, this is completely

30:40

free, right, all that's completely free, completely

30:43

volunteer. And now how was the response

30:45

when you guys started? The

30:47

best part about it. The reason why we

30:49

got such an overwhelming response, I believe

30:51

is because we were like free therapy. But

30:54

also even if you can pay

30:56

for therapy, finding a therapist is

30:58

a very daunting process.

31:01

It is like literally like finding

31:03

a good black therapist is like a purple unicorn

31:06

situation is easy to find a good man. No,

31:08

that's that's equally as hard. They

31:12

both are hard. But what

31:14

we're doing actually similarly to like

31:17

like if you were looking for like a date or looking

31:19

for a man. It's like we're literally matching them

31:21

up. So we have like a really unique

31:24

system of we don't just match people

31:26

up. Oh okay, this person is a person of color, and

31:28

this person black, and this person black, and this person latino,

31:30

this person latino. We are really paying a

31:32

lot of attention to what the specific

31:34

mental health needs are. We're paying

31:37

a lot of attention to what the

31:39

skill qualification of the therapists and

31:41

personality. They tell us what we need, and

31:44

we just give them what they need. They

31:46

don't have to go through Oh do they do depression?

31:48

Are they close to me? Do they take my insurance?

31:50

We try to match them up because after the free

31:52

sessions then they're able to continue with their

31:55

therapists. I think this works because y'all

31:57

cover like the three major obstacles that kind

31:59

of like prevent black people from seeking,

32:02

you know, therapy, Like one is cost,

32:04

yes, the other stigma, and

32:07

then let's like finding somebody that's culturally

32:10

compatible to you. I guess

32:12

that a little more. There is like almost an

32:15

element of identifying the

32:17

proper diagnosis before the people

32:19

are even met, and making sure that the therapist who

32:22

can provide that level of attentiveness

32:25

is selected and just watching them work

32:27

the creative process. We had a situation

32:29

where a therapist was being matched

32:32

up with a potential applicant and

32:34

as they got through the process, the therapist called

32:37

back into tatonium as that kid says, I

32:39

think this is my ex boyfriend, And the

32:42

reality was it was so they

32:44

do that such a great job of matching up the

32:46

person and the needs with the person who's going to provide

32:48

the therapy that you end up getting like

32:51

matchmaker dot com in therapy.

32:53

And that's important because, as I know,

32:55

as a person who goes to therapy, you can

32:57

spend so much time in the first four or five

32:59

businesses, especially if you're paying for it, just trying

33:01

to get the therapist to understand who you are. You'd

33:04

much rather walk into a situation where that happens

33:06

as instantaneously as possible and then make you

33:08

want to get back with your X being that he was going to work

33:11

on himself, because I'm sure so

33:14

well, I mean in that case, well, we did not

33:17

preying on love. But

33:19

I don't know. I don't know if she caught them back because it

33:22

was like from years before. But I

33:24

do know a lot of single professional

33:26

women are saying that now they're like

33:29

my requirements at this point, they're looking

33:31

for men who've been in therapy. So financially,

33:34

how do you support black men? Hill? Well,

33:36

um, this is the beauty of it. Well, financially, if we

33:39

have not had we are

33:41

not supported struggle.

33:43

But this

33:45

mission, more than anything else, has taught me about

33:47

the power of us coming together to create

33:49

our own solutions, not waiting for nobody to

33:51

create them. We didn't have no funding. When

33:54

I first had the idea, I was knocking on everybody's

33:56

door, Oh my god, do you do you get this vision?

33:58

Do you get the idea? Like this can change things?

34:01

But people ain't pulling a right to a check one

34:03

hundred thousand dollars because you tell them you got a great idea.

34:05

So what I thought to myself was like, you know

34:07

what, like a lot of people whose doors I was knocking

34:10

on was not answering, but I said, you

34:12

know what, let's just build it. So I just focused

34:14

all at that time on building it, going

34:16

to providers like literally pleading

34:18

and begging and you know, fighting people

34:20

on Instagram and my area and being like yo, coming

34:23

go to lunch. And then I was like, I'm

34:25

not coming out of a meeting with anybody. I'm not coming

34:27

out of a lunch without them saying yes, because

34:29

if they are a person of color and they are

34:31

in the mental health field, how could they not say yes?

34:34

Right? So, and that's how I got involved because

34:36

I have a private practice, and once they

34:38

told me about it, I'm like, I'm in you

34:40

know, you can I let them use my space.

34:43

And then after a while, I was

34:45

just so in love with the mission and doing

34:47

so much work for a test, was like, well you might as

34:49

well come join us and this, you know. So

34:52

we just appealed to people's sense of like

34:54

she said, community and pride and this

34:56

is for us, this is for our men, and we get

34:58

other clinicians of color, like, you know, I can't

35:00

donate the time like someone

35:03

who another provider who does not have a space,

35:05

then they can just do the the sessions at my space.

35:07

How do you convince people to provide the time. We're

35:09

asking people to donate one hour a week for eight

35:11

weeks, right, because the clinicians get

35:14

to choose whatever hours. So if they're like I

35:16

literally have like a Monday morning

35:18

at seven am, all they have to do

35:20

be willing to do is to give us an hour

35:23

and we'll say we will do all the rest of the

35:25

work. We will find you a man who

35:27

can't go to seven am. We also

35:29

use telehealth sometimes in addition

35:31

to the brick and motor locations, so

35:33

that's one way. And sometimes people don't have the

35:35

time, so sometimes people support us by donating

35:38

money, which is of course we need greatly,

35:41

or are they donate their space The providers

35:43

also, some of them are starting out in private

35:45

practice, so we're actually helping them to build their business

35:47

because they once they get a man, then they'll

35:50

continue on and some of the men might refer

35:52

other men to them. Some of the providers

35:55

aren't licensed, so Taz is licensed.

35:58

She provides them the hours like the

36:00

prevision

36:01

division and stuff like that. So that's the way. But

36:05

when you asked how did we get to come,

36:07

it was like, you know, we created

36:09

this safe space for black men, and it was

36:11

like a rallying cry. It was like as

36:13

soon as we opened the door the flood gates,

36:15

they were like they wanted to tell

36:18

us everything that was going on, and they

36:20

just you know, the issues ranged

36:22

from depression, anxiety

36:24

PTSD to something that's small, not

36:26

small, but you know, I just want to be a better father,

36:29

I just want to be a better husband, you know, things

36:31

like that. I think the other thing is you really have to look

36:33

at in our community as a black

36:35

man. So they get a lot of grief from time to time

36:37

as why are you women, you know, supporting

36:40

you know, this mission for black men. Where are the black men stepping

36:42

up? You know in our community unless you at the barbershop.

36:45

Everything that seems to happen in the black community gets

36:47

started by the sisters.

36:49

But at the end of the day, we put value

36:51

back in the community by putting hill men back into community.

36:53

Absolutely put fathers, you put husbands,

36:56

you put big brothers, you put mentors, you

36:58

put men who are more complete

37:01

versions of themselves. Yeah, I think it's better for assistants

37:03

to be pushing to be leading the organization. Because

37:05

I started going to therapy because of my home girls because

37:08

of my wife, and I just think it's something

37:10

very motherly and nurturing about assisted

37:12

telling you to go, let's go do the work.

37:14

On your show. We got more with black

37:17

men Hill coming up right here on the world. Most they

37:19

just want to show the Breakfast up quistep

37:24

is the Breakfast Club and we are speaking with the

37:26

black and men Hill. Now, Charlomagne,

37:28

you have a question, why is it important

37:30

to have therapists of color speaking with patients of color?

37:33

Because if you, like right now,

37:35

if you call the back of your insurance card, if you

37:37

try to go find a therapist, like

37:39

like, of the list on the back

37:41

of their insurance card is not going

37:44

to be people who look like you. It's important

37:46

because when people are trying to find a therapist,

37:48

they're looking for people who look like them fortimately,

37:51

because they're looking for somebody who's going to identify,

37:53

you know. And there's also not enough

37:55

of us on the side of purpose.

37:57

It's only four percent of psychology

38:00

who are people of color. How do we duplicate

38:03

black men hell all across the country.

38:05

Because I really feel like this is I love the work y'all

38:07

doing. I think this is so necessary. How do we duplicate

38:09

this well. Of course money funding

38:12

is like the number one thing we're at this

38:15

point now and the mission. We're still servicing

38:17

the mission, but like our focus completely.

38:19

In order to keep servicing it or for it to

38:21

keep growing, we need funding.

38:25

The funding would immediately go to so

38:27

right now, all of our therapists are volunteers,

38:29

and it's harder to get the

38:32

providers. So what we do not have a problem

38:34

with getting, believe it or not, is the men. The

38:36

men are there, like we have a long waiting

38:38

list, but not enough of the resources. So the

38:40

funding would go into paying the providers.

38:43

I believe that it would be easier to get

38:46

providers to sign up if obviously

38:48

if they were getting paid, so we could hire them as

38:50

opposed to them happen to find an hour to

38:52

donate. Right um, more locations,

38:55

more spaces, and clinical managers.

38:57

So we need people to like man edge

39:00

over the providers, and that's important from a quality

39:02

control standpoint. So you think back to when McDonald's

39:04

first started franchising and the meticulous

39:07

nature in which they went from location and

39:09

location to make sure that a quarter

39:11

pounded with cheese and Missouri tasted

39:13

exactly the same as a quarter pound with cheese in New York.

39:16

Whereas the actual sitting in a chair across

39:18

from your therapist is a very individual

39:20

and unique experience. The overall nature

39:23

of what black Man Hill provides has to have

39:25

a level of uniformity and a level of

39:27

consistency so that the standard doesn't fall off.

39:29

Well, how can people reach you, guys? If you would

39:32

participate, donate and

39:34

ask any other questions? Yeah, so, I

39:37

mean will? We have a website is Blackman

39:39

Hill dot org. You can

39:41

also follow us on social at Blackman

39:43

Hill on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

39:46

If you want to donate, you could literally,

39:48

I mean anything. I mean. This has also

39:51

taught me that when people be like even a dollar

39:53

helps, I used to think like, how could

39:55

a dollar really help? Now that I'm on this side of it, I'm

39:57

like, no, I'm serious, A dollar really helps, like it

39:59

means a love. You could also donate to

40:02

PayPal. You can find us info at Blackman

40:04

Hill dot org on PayPal um. You

40:06

could donate directly to our cash app.

40:09

You could buy our shirts we have like

40:11

merchandise. You can go to the website. The

40:14

cash app is uh BMH

40:17

Blackman Hill. So as money sign

40:19

BMH. Blackman Hill we call ourselves

40:22

BMH. Make sure y'all spell that right because it'll

40:24

go to the wrong person, please don't. Y'all

40:26

should see the logo, yes, make sure

40:28

it's a logo of Blackman Hill,

40:31

of a man walking into Hilling. You

40:33

can see it BMH. We also wanted to

40:35

thank just this forum right here. UM.

40:37

You know you reaching out and

40:40

giving us a platform. You know the people who have

40:42

sat in this room are powerful

40:44

in our community and throughout and

40:46

we know that your love for

40:49

self improvement and things of that nature has been helpful

40:52

and spreading it to the greater New York

40:54

and New Jersey area is definitely

40:56

immediately on our horizon. And

40:59

your support of of a cohort, it's

41:02

it's yeah, I want to help y'all go nationale.

41:04

I'm gonna donate ten thousand dollars.

41:06

Oh my god, I

41:10

think I think that that can that can sponsor

41:12

a lot of sessions. Guys that

41:15

will literally like that, like that

41:17

specific support of ten thousand

41:19

dollars will help us put ten to

41:21

fifteen men through the co word um

41:24

and charge

41:28

or five I started and

41:30

then for you to see the outcomes are the

41:32

most amazing things the systems we have in

41:34

place of seeing like where

41:36

the men are at. And we're doing this in only

41:39

eight sessions. Like it's mind blowing to me because

41:41

I was like, eight sessions is not enough. But these

41:43

men are being seriously impacted by just

41:45

the eight sessions because we've set the

41:47

system up in a way that they just start and

41:50

they immediately have the relationship.

41:52

So now the process of therapy, which eventually

41:55

becomes in between the sessions and

41:57

the therapy room, is just the awareness. Like that's

41:59

when you're building the awareness, but then what you

42:01

do with that, like that happens in between the sessions.

42:04

These men are so amazing, like they

42:07

at the end of every cohort, we have a

42:09

fundraiser and um, we invite

42:11

the men and we had like two brothers that came

42:13

through that spoke at one cohort, and

42:15

then I had the other brothers DM and ME like what

42:17

about us? So we're gonna get a chance to meet other men? Are

42:20

We're gonna get a chance to share our stories. And I'm always

42:22

like, oh my god, I didn't think you wouldn't want to. They

42:24

want to share their story and their stories

42:27

that attract other men and that's

42:29

how you hope to eradicate the stigma by everybody just telling

42:31

us. We'll give them the info all more time. All

42:34

right. So, Blackmanhill dot org is the website.

42:36

You can follow us one social at Blackman

42:39

Hill everywhere and

42:41

you could donate cash app is money

42:43

42:59

appreciate you more than I

43:01

could ever even fully articulate.

43:03

And it's not just for heaven us here, but just

43:05

for being a voice and mental

43:07

health, because you single handedly

43:10

have helped remove stigma from

43:12

a just by you being able to be transparent

43:15

about your own journey. Um.

43:17

There's so many people who pay attention to that,

43:19

and so I know you probably get tagged

43:21

on everything mental health now it's almost

43:23

mental health. God

43:24

no thanks

43:29

whoever taglo Um. But

43:31

we just want to thank you for being a vessel. And that's because

43:33

that's what we feel like we are. You know, it's not

43:35

about us an individually who are

43:37

sitting up here. We're just a vessel who

43:40

is creating a space to

43:42

really make a difference um in this

43:45

uh, in this field, like with our community,

43:47

and that feels like such a blessing and let's

43:49

continue to do the work. We feel very honored. We

43:51

feel very honored to be able to service these

43:53

men. They are so worthy and so desertus.

43:56

Yeah. Absolutely what that's black Ben Hill. Thank

43:58

y'all for coming, Thank you, thank

44:01

you. Yeah, it's the world knows. Data's morning. You're

44:03

to breakfast club Charlemagne, God

44:05

Angelie or dj Enva is not here. We just

44:07

received our breakfast this morning, which comes in the form

44:10

of Schmuvies. Why do you drink this movie every

44:12

morning? Year? Well, you know, we want a juice bar

44:14

juices for life in Brooklyn. But that's

44:16

something that I just started doing because I'm not a big breakfast

44:18

person and when I eat too much in the

44:20

morning and make me tired. And I also just

44:23

don't necessarily really even like eggs and

44:26

things like that, and you know, I don't eat pork or

44:28

beef or anything. So I like breakfast. I just don't

44:30

like New York breakfast. And then I also like smoothies

44:33

because and they have to be by the way, just

44:35

for everybody listening, try to get them with all

44:37

fresh fruits and vegetables, not frozen,

44:39

because that's way better for you. But

44:42

yeah, so it's also something that gives you natural

44:44

energy. So natural sugars from

44:46

fruits and vegetables

44:49

is great for you, just not artificial

44:51

sugars. And so ask them not to add any

44:54

like you know a lot of times you'll add orange juice,

44:56

add apple juice. You'd rather just try to

44:58

do it with some ice, you know, even

45:00

just water or certain fruits that can juice

45:03

and make it liquid. E Yeah. I do s movies for

45:05

the same reason. And also because New York breakfast

45:07

is trash because I'm from the South, so I like grits and

45:09

biscuits. The hell is a bagel. I'll be sleep

45:12

bagel with cream cheese. Yeah, oh,

45:14

shut up, drum. Of course you would think it was delicious, right,

45:17

so you know, but yesterday I had put on

45:19

Twitter it's mercury and retrograde. There were so many

45:21

things happening yesterday, like online.

45:23

I was like, it's just too much, and we're gonna get into some

45:26

of that in the room of report, I was just saying this whole

45:28

Nicki Minaj Meek Mill. They were online

45:31

going back and forth with each other better

45:33

than anything on TV, I'll tell you that much. And

45:35

I was like, why why we're

45:38

talking about it when we come back with the rumor report

45:40

A song are about to play? Drum

45:42

you know this song?

45:44

Okay,

45:50

good loving a faction d

45:54

D D D DA da Damn.

45:56

Mario's still a bob ain't it. Yeah, let's

45:58

get into the room report. It's

46:01

about Angela

46:08

need the Breakfast Club. By

46:11

the way, that Mario just a friend. I remember

46:13

at one point that was my favorite song. I remember

46:16

being in South Beach and that song

46:18

it just came out. That was the

46:20

weekend song, all right, ton

46:22

Monee. She just did an interview with The Cut

46:24

and she was talking about getting sick after

46:27

going on a pscytian diet.

46:29

She said, I started feeling my mortality.

46:31

She was battling mercury poisoning. So

46:34

they said that mercury, as you know, it's highly toxic

46:36

to humans and people can become poisoned

46:39

when they consume contaminated fish.

46:41

So she said she wants to

46:43

become healthy again and she does want to have kids,

46:45

but she's waiting until she's healthy again to carry

46:48

a child. She said, I don't want to miss that time because

46:50

I was so focused on my career and because I didn't plan

46:52

accordingly. So imagine having mercury

46:54

poisoning while mercury is in retrograde.

46:57

That too, all

46:59

right? And now this had me super

47:02

excited. Yesterday they put out the trailer

47:04

for a new movie, and this is

47:06

the SAU spinoff, Spiral.

47:09

I am so excited to see this. And

47:12

this actually also featured Chris Rock

47:15

and Samuel L. Jackson. They're going to be starring

47:17

in that as well, so I

47:19

can't wait for Spiral to come

47:21

out. I saw all of the Saw movies in that franchise.

47:23

You know, horror movies are my favorites, so

47:25

I will definitely be checking this out. They said,

47:28

Chris Rock conceived this idea and it will be

47:30

completely reverential to the legacy

47:32

of the material while reinvigorating the

47:34

brand with his wit, creative vision,

47:37

and passion for this classic horror franchise.

47:39

Only Chris Rock can make me go see a horror movie because

47:41

I don't pay people to scare me. So he's

47:43

the only person that could make me go see

47:45

a horror film. I'm definitely definitely

47:48

Oh Jordan Peel, Yeah, Jordan Peel

47:50

for his heart is a little different, but yes, all right

47:52

now, Nicki Minads versus and Meek Mill.

47:55

I didn't know what was going on yesterday. I've

47:57

been so tired. I went home, took a nap and woke up

47:59

and all hell broke loose. So

48:02

I guess this all started with Meek mil liking a

48:04

picture. There was a picture inside the Jimmy Jazz

48:06

window of the mannequin and somebody said, nah,

48:09

man, they put a ball in Jimmy Jazz and

48:11

that was, guess, the same outfit he put aside

48:13

by side with Nicki Minaj's husband,

48:15

Kenneth Petty, and Meek Mill

48:17

liked that picture. Well, that's

48:20

how it all started. He liked a picture. Nicki

48:22

Minaj then posted you a clown.

48:25

She put the clown emoji you do it for like Twitter

48:27

fingers, beat women, scared of

48:29

men? And then she posted a picture of

48:32

Meek Mill in an outfit with a clown

48:34

face emoji over his face. She

48:37

said, you've been tweeting about my man

48:39

for a year now, talking about he went to my

48:41

page to see him, but he was blocked. Then

48:43

she said, my am ware, move on, I know, I

48:46

know your bitch embarrassed ished yourself

48:48

in that store when you got pressed though, and

48:51

then she said trigger fingers turned to Twitter fingers,

48:53

bad built face, ass obsessed with the queen.

48:56

Then Meek responded, the only way you

48:58

can try to kill my career to say I beat

49:00

women. Talk about your brother convicted

49:02

of rape and you've been new and paid for his

49:05

lawyer. Your little brother touched that little girl too.

49:07

You know, I know you want me to crash with your

49:09

boyfriend and I won't. You sad you willing to crash

49:11

your man because you lose it now and everybody

49:13

in the industry know you're a bad person. You've been

49:15

knew your brother was raping that little girl. That's why I got

49:18

away from you. And then she responded,

49:20

you beat your own sister and taped it, spit

49:22

on her and taped it, kick me in front your mother and sent her

49:25

to the hospital. Sucking Drake Dean made

49:27

you feel tough again. Move on. Imagine talking

49:29

about an alleged rape of a child to hurt

49:31

someone who wasn't involved, just so people can dislike

49:33

me, so a lot going on back and forth

49:36

between the two of them. I don't even want to really, I even feel

49:39

bad reading all of this right now, but I know everybody

49:41

was talking about it. And Meek Mail finally

49:43

said, my girl is with me

49:46

pregnant. Watching me tweet about my ex is

49:48

very clownish. I'm an exit, And

49:50

then he said, for clarification, I don't hit women,

49:52

and I won't let my interviews be filled with questions

49:54

about her or any situation to do with her when

49:56

I come out to do press for my new album, No

49:59

Devil Tricks. You know, here's

50:01

the thing. If you was ever friends with someone

50:04

lovers y'all liked each other, don't

50:07

start spieling the tea on each other when y'all

50:09

fall out. Because all the poor behavior,

50:12

all the poor fashion choices, all

50:14

of that was fine when y'all was together.

50:17

Okay, you put up with it. Yeah, you put up with all

50:19

of that when y'all live together. But as soon as y'all

50:21

fall out, then y'all want to start spieling the tea

50:23

on each other. That's whack. Now. This

50:25

cliff started circulating then of Nicki

50:27

Minais from her Queen documentary where she

50:29

discusses being in an abusive relationship.

50:32

A lot of people started reposting this would

50:34

let my father be violent

50:37

with her, and she always

50:39

brings up the story as a little girl, I would

50:41

come in front of I would stand in front of my mother and going

50:43

to this, and I vowed, Like

50:46

that's why I'm like, maybe

50:49

some people would dis round me as a brace

50:51

Of or Bitchie or whatever, because I

50:53

vowed from that age no

50:55

man would ever abuse me, call

50:58

me out my name, treat me like that.

51:00

And then all of a sudden, that

51:03

was my life. Now we don't know

51:05

who she's referring to in this clip, but

51:07

everybody was posting it. Everything that would

51:09

be in a que of Meek's fashion choices would have worked. She went

51:12

too far, nicky clowning that man's close all right.

51:14

You loved him when he was making those poor

51:16

fashion choices back in the day when he had the man person

51:18

the capri pants. So don't

51:20

start clowning them for it now, and don't call him bad

51:22

Bill. Why you gotta call him man bad Bill? She used to love that bad

51:24

build body, so you know what I mean. Like that said, I'm talking

51:26

about when you love somebody and y'allways friends, don't

51:28

start feeling the t once

51:30

y'all fall out because all the poor choices

51:33

and the bad buildingess and the bad fashion

51:35

choices. You loved it when y'all was together, all

51:38

right, I mean, and same thing all Meeks in well,

51:40

yeah, because he was seeing the industry knows

51:42

what type of person she is and that she's filled

51:44

with hate. He said. The whole industry know you full

51:47

of hate and you're bad getting low, so you want to destroy

51:49

me. Let's be honest. The industry

51:51

eated Niki when she was with Meek too, and Meek

51:54

knew that right, so he was fine with that. Then you

51:56

understand what I'm saying. I think, yes, like, don't

51:58

do that. Once y'all fall out, it all looks

52:01

corny. Then it makes

52:03

it feel like y'll still care too. Yeah,

52:05

you know what I'm saying. You guys are both in other relationships,

52:08

have moved on. You gotta just

52:10

be like, I'm happy with this person, because I know if my

52:13

man was tweeting my you know, tweeting

52:15

his ex, I'd be like, yo, what are you doing? And

52:17

all is started just because somebody had on the shirt

52:19

52:38

53:29

Yes, got donkey? Yes? And next

53:31

up we do have Donkey of the Day, Shannaman. Who are you giving

53:34

your donkey too? Oh man, it's a white man named

53:36

Tom Bertel. I love culturally clueless

53:38

white man. They are hilarious to me in this story.

53:40

I think you will be disgusted by it, but you will find

53:42

funny. We'll talk about it for after the hour breakfast

53:45

club. Donkey

53:50

of the Day, I'm

53:54

so being Dunky of the Day, a little

53:56

bit of a mixed like a donkey day,

54:04

A lot of my twenty three years. But Donkey of

54:07

the Bay is a new wife. Well, Donkey

54:09

today for Thursday, February sixth.

54:11

Today is the sixth right, Okay, it goes to

54:13

a man who has been identified by ann

54:15

Arbor News is Tom Bertel. Now. I

54:18

love audacity, Okay, I actually

54:20

love the unmitigated gall of some people. It

54:22

takes nuts are complete lack of

54:24

self away and to do the things

54:26

that some people do. That's why in certain situations

54:29

like this one, I have to give this man

54:31

Tom Burtell the credit he deserves for being stupid,

54:33

but I also has to have to laugh

54:35

at the fact this man has the audacity

54:37

to do what he did. Now, a school in Michigan called

54:40

Liberty School was having a meeting to

54:42

discuss concerns about diversity and

54:44

acceptance at schools. Parents

54:47

were there expressing their concerns.

54:49

Okay, One man named Adrian Irola

54:52

I think I pronounced his last name right. Ira ira

54:55

Ola was sharing a story with parents

54:57

and school administrators about how ray

55:00

system in the school had been affecting

55:02

his child when Tom Burtel

55:04

interrupted him. I repeat, Adrian

55:07

ira Ola, who is Mexican? I

55:09

forgot to say that who is Mexican. By the way,

55:11

was talking to the parents from school administrators

55:14

about how racism in the school had been affecting

55:16

his child when he was interrupted by

55:18

Tom Burteil, would you like to know how Tom

55:20

Burtel interrupted. Let's go to Good Morning America

55:23

for the report police a meeting about racism

55:25

in a Michigan school erupts when

55:27

Adrian Eriola, who immigrated from

55:29

Mexico in the nineteen eighties, was interrupted

55:32

as he described his son's experience

55:34

when it took his bedroom to say

55:36

good night and he was crying

55:39

because of the abuse he was endured

55:42

in this school system, and why didn't

55:44

you say in Mexico. The

55:49

meeting was to address racial issues and the

55:52

school district after a group of black football

55:54

players was targeted with racial slurs

55:56

on Snapchat. The offending parent

55:58

eventually takes the mind priming, wait

56:01

walking a black bighorhood and see what happens, and he's

56:03

the citizens where somebody made a little

56:05

sweet and nobody's hurting that you

56:08

know that nobody got hurt. That was done all campus.

56:11

Curiola kept his composure and eventually

56:13

answered the man's question, which resulted

56:16

in another outburst question

56:18

the United States Mexico, because

56:21

this is the greatest sclunter in the world.

56:23

Yea, the

56:25

schoolds should get picked out. Put out a statement and

56:27

says in part that this type of biguatry goes against

56:29

all the values and beliefs of our school

56:32

system and says we will continue to listen to parents

56:34

and students. For the record, Tom Burtel,

56:36

if you are white walking in a black neighborhood,

56:38

we either think you're the police are uber each person?

56:41

Okay? Now, at Liberty School, I don't

56:43

know how serious y'all take diversity and acceptance

56:45

at schools. I don't know how serious y'all take racism.

56:47

But if there was ever any doubt that this was happening

56:50

at this school, okay, then

56:52

all doubt has been removed because the apple

56:54

don't fall too far from the tree. If that's how the parent,

56:57

Tom Bertel is talking and acting in public,

56:59

I can imagine what he is saying around the house,

57:01

and that attitude and energy is being transferred

57:04

to his children, possibly okay, and

57:06

possibly his children could be bringing that bs to

57:09

the school. Now, this right here just proves my

57:11

point that a lot of white men are just completely tone

57:13

deaf, all right. They lack cultural awareness.

57:15

They are completely culturally

57:18

clueless. Tom, you are at a meeting for

57:21

diversity and acceptance

57:24

in schools. A parent was

57:26

sharing a story about racism in

57:28

the school and how it affects his child, and

57:30

your brain says to your

57:32

mouth, now is the perfect time

57:35

to say something racist. This is literally

57:37

like being at a support group for sexual assault

57:39

victims. A woman is standing up telling her

57:41

story of being sexually assaulted,

57:43

and then some guy yells out, well what were

57:45

you wearing that night? Our

57:48

yells out, why how much did you drink

57:50

that night? Okay? That's like

57:52

being on the plane and while the flight attendant

57:54

is breaking down the instructions for people sitting in the

57:56

emergency exit row, and when she asks

57:58

you if you can assist, when she has if you can assist, what do you

58:00

say if I can assist?

58:03

Yes, yes. I would imagine if you looked there in the eye and asked

58:05

her, so, how exactly do I open this

58:07

door midflight? Okay, tom

58:10

My, God, play a clip again. Well

58:12

it took his bedroom to say good

58:15

night, and he was crying

58:17

because of the abuse. He wasn't

58:19

new it in this school system. And

58:21

why didn't you say in Mexico? Well,

58:26

man, you cut off my favorite part when the white woman

58:28

goes you date the late Now

58:35

Tom's Tom's son, actually,

58:37

and I'm glad this happened. Tom's son, Matt Brittel,

58:40

he said, he posted on Facebook four

58:42

thirteen pm today. My father asked

58:45

to deliberately racist question at

58:47

the Selene Area Schools Diversity

58:49

and Inclusion meeting his views of hate

58:52

in no way represent my own. I stand

58:54

in solidarity with the refugees and

58:56

immigrants of the world. Round of applause for Matt

58:58

Brittel. Not too much. I

59:00

don't una stop. I don't applaud white people for doing

59:03

what the hell he's supposed to do. Okay, I'm just glad

59:05

he drew a line in the sand and let

59:07

his father know that his behavior was

59:09

completely unacceptable. Too

59:12

much, God, damn man, he much, goddamn

59:14

man, he's Please let Kathy Griffin

59:16

give Tom bird tell the biggest hea hall. Please

59:19

59:21

59:25

1:00:12

Jack Quis on the line. What's good, Jack Quis? Hey,

1:00:15

how are you doing? I'm good? How are you? I'm

1:00:18

good? So what's your question for? Ask you? So?

1:00:21

Okay, So I've been with me and my say, I said, I've

1:00:23

been together for three years. Weird

1:00:26

um supposed to get married in July, and

1:00:28

then he told me that he wanted to

1:00:31

postpone the wedding. Oh why,

1:00:33

uh well, he says. It's reasons

1:00:36

on his end, financial reasons. What y'all understand,

1:00:39

we're in a long distance relationship. We've

1:00:41

been a long difference since he graduated

1:00:43

college. So the other

1:00:45

day we were texting and I was, you know, texting

1:00:48

him, and he takes me and was like, you know,

1:00:50

he was kind of irritated. You

1:00:52

know, he's differ. Distancing hit him.

1:00:54

So I just want to know, like what should I do?

1:00:57

Do I do? You know? Do I try to stay or work

1:00:59

it? Out because I'm kind of like frush

1:01:01

right because it's like back and forth and we're

1:01:03

too long to be going back and forth. So

1:01:06

have y'all been having issues? Is the

1:01:08

postponement strictly financial

1:01:11

or is there other things you feel like might be going

1:01:13

on? Honestly, I can't

1:01:15

say. He says it's financial, so

1:01:17

I'm not really sure. Okay,

1:01:20

when's the last time y'all seeing each other? We

1:01:22

said, see what we spent New Year's and Christmas

1:01:25

together, and so

1:01:27

that was the last time I've seen him after New Year. I

1:01:30

feel like y'all need to spend some time together to

1:01:32

figure out what's going on, because it feels like

1:01:34

the lines of communications aren't all the way

1:01:36

open right now. You know, it seems

1:01:38

like you have some questions that you haven't really

1:01:40

asked him, and he might not be telling you the whole

1:01:42

story. You're not even one hundred percent

1:01:44

sure if the whole reason for postponing it is financial.

1:01:47

You don't know why he's irritated and

1:01:50

it seems like you have some reservations also.

1:01:53

Okay, so when are you postponing

1:01:55

the wedding? Until? I don't

1:01:57

know. I asked him that and he told me he really

1:02:00

sure, he just wanted to hold

1:02:02

out. Yeah,

1:02:05

it sounds like y'all need to have a nice heart to heart.

1:02:07

Okay, okay, so maybe

1:02:09

are you gonna how far away do y'all live from each other?

1:02:12

Well? He stays in Chicago and I live

1:02:14

in Alabama. So okay, Well, you

1:02:16

guys, I think this is if you want

1:02:18

to figure out if you both want to save this relationship,

1:02:21

if y'all need to, you know, really, just spend

1:02:23

some time on working on it. I just

1:02:26

don't I can't tell if you still want to be

1:02:28

with him or not. Do you still want to be with him? Do you want

1:02:30

to get married? I mean I do want

1:02:32

to be married. Okay, So try to save your relationship.

1:02:35

Go see him, plan it out, have

1:02:37

that heart to heart, See what needs to happen for you

1:02:39

guys to move forward. See if there's other

1:02:41

underlying things besides just finances.

1:02:44

Because I'm sure for you, if you want to get married,

1:02:46

you want to get married. It doesn't even have to be the biggest

1:02:48

wedding, the most expensive wedding, or any of that.

1:02:51

Right, All right, Well, I hope y'all

1:02:53

work it out. But if you love him and you want to marry

1:02:55

him, then go and try to save that. Okay,

1:02:58

thank you? No them all right.

1:03:00

We're still taking calls for ask Ye one hundred

1:03:03

and five, y five one or five one. If you got a question for

1:03:05

angela ye. If you need some advice, calls right

1:03:07

now. It's the breakfast Club. What's

1:03:09

up? We are doing ask Ye and we have

1:03:11

Destiny on the line. What's up, Destiny? Whi

1:03:14

ye? How are you? Good morning everyone at the Breakfast

1:03:16

Club? Good morning Destiny. What's

1:03:18

your question? This morning? So? Yee?

1:03:21

I made breakfast for my boyfriend this

1:03:23

morning. Oh I actually I woke up and I said, okay,

1:03:25

do anybody want to breakfast? He said yes, So

1:03:28

I got up, made for breakfast. He had

1:03:31

three minutes until he was ready to leave. But

1:03:33

yeah, I'm not gonna lie. I was already mad at

1:03:36

him prior too, so the night before

1:03:38

I was already mad. So I woke up with attitude.

1:03:40

But I still broke for alls up and made breakfast.

1:03:43

So I asked him. He said yes, he got

1:03:45

dressed and everything. He had three minutes until

1:03:48

he had to leave the house to be on time. He's

1:03:50

seeing that the sausage was not put on

1:03:53

the bread, so he said he didn't have problem to make

1:03:55

it. He left. I was like, okay, I'll do it real quick.

1:03:57

Am I wrong for being mad that he didn't

1:03:59

eat it? Or that he was mad

1:04:02

that I know I was already mad. Okay,

1:04:04

So destiny, y'all. You know this is petty, right,

1:04:06

It's very petty. That's what I'm saying.

1:04:09

He should have been mad at me for no reason

1:04:11

because I didn't put it on the bread, but

1:04:13

you already was mad at him for something else last

1:04:15

night. But I still made him breakfast and

1:04:18

he did only have three minutes. Maybe

1:04:20

he felt like you was being petty. Y'all.

1:04:23

Can't be doing this little back and forth doing

1:04:26

things to irritate each other. That's

1:04:28

what it is. It's back and forth to irritate

1:04:30

each other. That's all it is. Need you

1:04:32

know you should do. You should call uber eaton, deliver him

1:04:34

some a sandwich, to work as a do

1:04:37

something nice. You know what? I think a lot of times,

1:04:39

like I know, I'm very stubborn too, and I

1:04:42

could have an attitude, you know what I'm

1:04:44

saying with my man, But I think he really appreciates

1:04:47

it when I'm the one

1:04:49

that actually is the first person to be like, you

1:04:51

know what, let's stop arguing that

1:04:53

that was so petty because I don't do that often. All

1:04:56

right, I'm gonna take your advice, you because

1:04:59

it wasn't that bigger deal, right, It

1:05:01

was not that big of the deal. I even

1:05:03

tried to make it right before he walked out of the

1:05:06

house and I called him on his phone.

1:05:08

They know I was ready. He didn't answer

1:05:10

the phonic so he got down the road and could not. Yeah,

1:05:13

he probably just a little irritated back at you for being

1:05:15

irritated at him, so you might as well just did it

1:05:17

right now. I think you should send him some food

1:05:19

to his job. I think he'll think that's really cute. All

1:05:22

right, I will thank you. All right, all

1:05:26

right, Well that was asking. Yes, he is.

1:05:28

See, I don't always just take the woman's side. People be

1:05:30

trying to say that I'm biased. I am a

1:05:32

woman though, I mean, yeah, and you'll see it's

1:05:35

that's that makes perfect sense to see it from her perspective,

1:05:37

At a woman's perspective. You're a woman. All

1:05:39

right. Well, we got rumor coming up you, yes,

1:05:42

and we'll talk about Vanessa Bryant.

1:05:44

1:05:55

when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Yeahs, the world, most

1:05:57

dangerous world.

1:06:00

Most Andrews want to show to Breakfast Club. Charlottegne

1:06:19

1:06:28

to everybody that's donating money to Black

1:06:30

Men Hill. Now Angela got drun report coming.

1:06:33

Yes, cultural appropriation, let's

1:06:35

talk about it. She's

1:06:38

filling the team. This is the Rumor

1:06:40

Report with Angela Ye on

1:06:43

the Breakfast Club. All right, Well,

1:06:45

Hanks has gotten some backlash. He's been doing

1:06:47

these path twive videos. Here's the latest

1:06:49

one he did, talking about make the Stallion and g easy,

1:06:52

potentially dating. We don't want no

1:06:54

Mark Gallas, you never want

1:06:56

them and hurt moment.

1:07:00

All right, Well he did this hole

1:07:02

post chet Chat volume six.

1:07:05

Cultural appropriation. Here's what he

1:07:07

had to say about it. If a white person gets

1:07:09

into hip hop and they start wearing brace

1:07:11

and gold teeth, some people call that appropriation.

1:07:14

But if a black person puts on cowboy

1:07:16

boots and a cowboy hat and gets into country

1:07:18

music, there's nothing wrong with that. Of course,

1:07:20

there's nothing wrong with that. Why would

1:07:22

anybody have a problem with that. It's because this

1:07:24

whole idea of theft. They

1:07:27

take it from us and then benefit

1:07:30

off of it without helping

1:07:32

the people that they took it from. Why

1:07:34

can't it just be that he loves

1:07:36

black culture and he wants to

1:07:39

be that that's just what speaks to him.

1:07:41

Oh, that's a whole conversation. Yeah, I

1:07:43

don't feel like having that conversation, and I don't

1:07:45

feel like day. I

1:07:47

do know his white people in the Caribbean though, Yeah,

1:07:51

his Asian people. Yeah, all

1:07:53

kinds of people and cultural appropriation.

1:07:56

If you speak Patua, if you were somewhere

1:07:58

and because would watched shots people,

1:08:01

was always confused, like, hey, what's going on here?

1:08:03

Yeah, because it's why it's I just always whit people in the cribs.

1:08:05

I'm just it's got to be white people in Jamaica. Yeah,

1:08:07

So it's like, is it cultural appropriation?

1:08:11

I think appropriation is when you take

1:08:13

from a culture that you were not part of or raised

1:08:15

in and then benefit

1:08:17

from it. That's really and it's kind of what he's

1:08:19

saying. But I don't know. I'm confused.

1:08:22

But whope, way it sounds different now. And we love

1:08:24

to tell black people to stop talking

1:08:26

white, So I don't have a problem with people telling white people to

1:08:28

stop talking black if that is considered black. I

1:08:30

don't. I don't know. I'm I'm talking white, and

1:08:32

what is talking black exactly? I don't know. Okay. Erica

1:08:35

Badou has a new perfume that she's working on and

1:08:37

it's going to smell like her vagina.

1:08:39

It's called Baddou's. I can't say this word,

1:08:41

but it's like a cat. But if it was

1:08:43

a can I say pussy cat? All

1:08:46

right? But minus the cat. Now. She said,

1:08:48

there's an urban legend that my cat

1:08:52

changes men the men that I fall in love with and fall

1:08:54

in love with me, change jobs and lives.

1:08:56

She said, I took lots of pairs of my panties,

1:08:59

cut them up into little pieces and burn them.

1:09:01

Even the ash is part of it. She said.

1:09:03

She no longer wears underwear, so she didn't care about

1:09:05

giving those away. Okay, real question,

1:09:08

oh Angelie, the only person in this room, and I can answer.

1:09:10

This is a vagina supposed to have a smell

1:09:13

um, Yeah, like a but sweet

1:09:17

like. Look, if you during juices every day, your vagina

1:09:19

will definitely have a nice sweet smell

1:09:21

to it. Really, but then at different times of the month,

1:09:23

like if you're about to get to period or just

1:09:25

finish, it might have a different type of smell.

1:09:28

Yeah. My dad used to say, that's so amazing. But

1:09:30

not it shouldn't be terrible. My dad used

1:09:32

to say, if it smells like fish, eat all you wish. If

1:09:34

it smells like cologne, leave it alone. Now

1:09:36

I don't think that it just smells like fish, yeah

1:09:39

at all. But okay, no maody going sense to

1:09:41

me. At forty one years ago, when I was young, I thought

1:09:43

it was the flies thing ever heard. But at this

1:09:45

point, if I would go around quoting that. But all

1:09:48

right, now let's skip ahead to fifty cent. He

1:09:50

was doing an interview with Complex and

1:09:52

you're a fifty cents a new person now. He's more

1:09:55

positive ever since Kobe passed. He said he's

1:09:57

not going to be addressing things the way that

1:09:59

he used to. And his latest situation

1:10:01

was about well, it was with French Montana,

1:10:03

but he hasn't really said much about it now.

1:10:06

During this interview, he was questioned about French

1:10:08

and he actually walked out. There

1:10:11

was rumors that you snuffed him in the club in Miami

1:10:13

or something that. Is there any truth to any ofthing? No? Okay,

1:10:16

well I do a thing like that. I don't know if I

1:10:18

wouldn't put it past you. Why would you think

1:10:20

that way? Would you think Will Smith would do

1:10:22

that? I would can't believe you would say these things

1:10:25

about me. I'm not saying them about you. The internet

1:10:27

said these things. Would you just

1:10:29

to start right here with assault French monch, I

1:10:31

don't mean

1:10:34

no, kidney, Okay, Well, would I do

1:10:36

a thing like that? You're not

1:10:38

allowed piece to destroy bum,

1:10:44

Curtis Jackson, not allowed my inner piece

1:10:46

to disturb your inner demons. I like the way fifty

1:10:48

that situation. He got about of the interview and

1:10:50

ran away from the negativity. Man, that brother fifty

1:10:53

is clearly trying to do the work on himself. Man, let him

1:10:55

do the work. God damn it. Why y'all keep trying to bring

1:10:57

people back to the old them? All?

1:11:00

Right? Well up, Angela, Yeah, that is your rumor

1:11:02

report. Now coming up next, we have

1:11:05

1:11:08

1:13:48

the world most dangerous morning show. To Breakfast Club Charlemagne

1:13:51

the God angela Ye, the

1:13:53

show was over for the day. Thank you to

1:13:55

the Black Men Hill Organization for pulling up on

1:13:57

us. Man. We really appreciate building

1:13:59

with them. They are a great organization. They

1:14:01

are providing free therapy for black

1:14:04

men in the Philadelphia area. I

1:14:06

would love to see that program go national.

1:14:09

I donated ten thousand dollars to them this morning,

1:14:11

because you know, that's how they are

1:14:14

able to get these therapists,

1:14:16

you know, and these providers to give out these

1:14:18

free sessions, you know, by getting donations.

1:14:20

Man, And they hit me earlier after the interview

1:14:23

add and said that the donations are rolling in. So

1:14:26

that makes me feel good knowing that some brothers are going to

1:14:28

get some free therapy sessions courtesy

1:14:30

of Black Men's Heel. So salute to them

1:14:32

for doing the work. Everybody out there needs to invest

1:14:34

in their mental health. And if you don't invest in your mental health,

1:14:36

at least you got organizations like Black Ment Health that will

1:14:38

make the investment for you. Okay,

1:14:41

well that's great. Thanks to everybody who's also donating

1:14:44

as well. That's right. Now

1:14:46

you have a positive note, Charlemagne, I do have a positive

1:14:48

notice Black History month. Man. This positive note

1:14:50

comes from Booker T. Washington. Booker T. Washington

1:14:53

said success is to be measured

1:14:55

not so much by the position that one

1:14:57

is reached in life, asked by the obstacles

1:15:00

she has overcome while trying to succeed. Breakfast
