I am great. I just landed from Vegas not long

1:00

ago. You know, we were on the West coast. First,

1:02

we were at the NAACP Image Awards.

1:04

That's right, the Breakfast Club was nominated. You

1:07

didn't win. No, No, he wasn't going.

1:09

Who do we lose to? How'd you know that? Because

1:11

I knew we weren't beause. Further of all, we didn't tell nobody to vote.

1:13

That's number one, all right, don't you told me this before

1:15

you knew I was about to get on that flight, and he had la why don't

1:17

1:20

air was first of all,

1:22

it was we didn't but it was nice to be nominated.

1:25

So that was an amazing thing. Maybe

1:27

if we had to actually be at the NAACP Image

1:30

Awards, it was a powerful room. It felt

1:32

great. Maybe if we would have activated our listeners

1:35

and you know, said to them, hey go folk because

1:37

we were you know, it was a voting thing. I didn't know. Yeah,

1:39

yeah, yeah, that was my first time. We don't

1:42

lose too. Unsung Unsung,

1:44

which one TV show

1:47

remember with Lloyd the Lord. I

1:50

liked the unsung and unsense. They actually did an unsensed

1:52

on me. I liked gunsensored. But they actually

1:55

honored Rihanna, so that was nice. She was there. Thena

1:57

was there, We was there, Blackish one, a lot of award

2:00

Wars and Anthony

2:02

2:04

there. He gave a funny speech. A lot of comedians,

2:06

Davy Smooth was there, Michael B. Jordan,

2:08

Michael Jordan, ya, A lot of people were

2:10

in the building. It was a great Girls club. We

2:13

talked a lot about award shows

2:15

and how we got to celebrate our own and that was definitely

2:17

a celebration of our own. It was a great It was

2:19

a great award show. Um. Shout

2:23

out to Revolt by the way, I had a good time. Shout

2:25

to Revoke family. It was a It was a great show.

2:27

A lot of people, a lot of black excellence in the building,

2:30

had a good time. And then I flew out to Vegas

2:32

for right after the award

2:34

show. Flew that night for my seminar

2:37

out there in Vegas, which was sold out.

2:39

Had a great time, spoke speaking to everybody on the West

2:41

coast. So it was a great,

2:43

great weekend. How was your weekend, cheer

2:46

lead and dad. I am a chair dad, A proud chair

2:48

dad, dropping a clues bond for all the chair dads out

2:50

there. Okay. I was in the beautiful

2:52

big city of Wildwood, New Jersey, right

2:56

staying in a nice two star hotel all

2:58

weekend long. Very i'mbling experience, but

3:01

you know, when you come from the extreams, I come from a dirt

3:03

road in moss Quine of South Carolina. A two star hotel

3:05

still feels like luxury, but you know, it made me feel really good

3:07

about the two star hotel. What's that fact that my daughter

3:10

was not tripping? I thought it was like she just happy

3:12

to be it was happy to be with our people. It was the hotel

3:14

that the team was sharing at, and she was like, it's

3:16

just the hotel, Dad, We're only gonna

3:18

be here for two days. That I'm like, you know

3:21

what, you right, baby? Thank you? You have changed,

3:23

Thank you. I

3:25

haven't changed. I just you know, I'm

3:28

happy. Life is good. Okay, not all

3:30

right, but I haven't

3:32

stayed in the two star hotel in a long time and

3:34

then a long long time. And I'm sure. The other

3:37

thing we all did was watched the fight we definitely

3:39

want to watch. Watched it on my laptop. I

3:41

had to order the fight on my laptop because you know, of course the two

3:43

star hotel. You can't order paper if you want the two star hotel.

3:46

So I ordered on my laptop. And you know, when't

3:48

got me a little pint. That fight was

3:50

so sad, and that wasn't I felt

3:52

bad. A little pint a little pine of remy from the liquor

3:54

store, drinking it out of plastic cups. You know what I mean,

3:57

and the wife acting like it was old times. See, well, well,

4:00

if you have children, you know, if you if they play basketball,

4:03

if it's a au, or if you're a cheerleader, or if

4:05

you play football. When you do traveling, that's that

4:07

Usually the hotels that they stay at. But

4:10

you know, the kids usually like to stay with each other. Hold

4:12

your daughter, Okay, so they like to stay with each

4:14

other the hotel, but the host hotel usually is trash,

4:17

right, So what me and my wife do is

4:19

we drop our kids off. They all in the same room, there's a chaplain,

4:21

and then we usually go up the block to something a little

4:23

more so. The problem with being a chair

4:26

that is that when they have these cheerleading competitions,

4:28

they're usually in places that nobody wants to go through

4:30

apps. Somebody want to be a while with New Jersey in the

4:32

middle of winter as Okay, I definitely

4:34

want to be in Disney World in May. But hey, that's why I shall

4:36

be. Okay, it is what it is, the life. You're

4:39

not complaining, Yes I am, I

4:42

am, but I'm not you know what I mean. My daughter plays

4:44

first and both our teams played the first

4:47

this weekend, so they can't get to you on They gonna keep

4:49

going and keep going to small ball keets with no real

4:51

hotel food. And you're gonna be and

4:53

I'll be there's building with the people shaking

4:56

hands and you know, talk, listening

4:58

to everybody who says they listen to the Reference Club and

5:00

listen to the podcasts and watch YouTube

5:02

videos. All of that just the hard part about you. The harder

5:05

part about that all is is the wait time, because

5:07

they might chair at eight in the morning and then they don't

5:09

chair or play basketball and getting into like five that

5:12

is fine. And you just did and you just did. See

5:14

you just did. You don't know how to be a chair

5:16

there. You gotta go there with your headphones, you know what I'm

5:18

saying, And you have your iPod and you have your

5:20

laptop and you catch upon your movies and your TV

5:22

shows. That's what you do, all right,

5:24

all right, let's get the show cracking. We

5:26

got some special guests joining us this morning. We do Nia

5:29

Long will be joining us, legend the

5:32

legendary Nia Long aging

5:34

like wine and not milk out here in these streets. And

5:37

also Pete Davis and Charlemagne had a

5:39

one on one conversation with Pete Davidson. Well,

5:42

Alive in New York. He also has a movie coming out

5:47

called Big Time out of Lessons that comes out of next

5:49

a lot of different things, okay, not

5:56

going on in his life. All right, Well,

5:58

let's get the show cracking front news. What were talking about. Well,

6:01

first, let's talk about Tyson the fury versus

6:03

Deontay Wilder, and we'll

6:05

tell you about that fight, will give you some of the

6:07

updates of what happened after the fight. Really

6:10

really hard to watch.

6:12

I will say, some blood looking going on. All

6:15

right, we'll get into that. Next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning

6:18

morning. Everybody is dj mvy

6:20

Angela Yee, Charlomagne the God. We all

6:22

the Breakfast Club. All right, let's

6:24

get in some front page news. Well,

6:28

let's start with the rest in peace to be Smith.

6:31

She has passed away at the age of seventy.

6:33

She had early onset Alzheimer's disease.

6:36

Her husband Dan Gaspie announced

6:38

her death. He said it was with great sadness that my

6:40

daughter Dana and I announced the passing up my

6:42

wife, Barbara Elaine Smith. He said

6:44

she did pass peacefully at ten fifty

6:47

pm Saturday at their home in Long Island after

6:49

she had been battling Alzheimer's disease for several

6:52

years. She's a model, she's a restaurantur

6:55

lifestyle guru. She was the first black

6:57

woman featured on the cover of Mademoiselle and

7:00

three of her B Smith restaurants in New York City, Long

7:02

Island and also in DC. Rest in Peace

7:04

Happens, Rest in Peace? All right. Now,

7:06

let's discuss this fight that happened over the weekend,

7:09

Tyson Fury versus Deontay

7:11

Wilder. A lot of people were thinking Deontay

7:13

Wilder would knock Tyson Fury out at some point,

7:16

but that did not happen. The fight didn't

7:18

go well from the very beginning, and they actually had to

7:20

call the fight in the seventh round. So

7:23

word on the street is that maybe there'll be another

7:26

remask because this was already part trilogy. Right,

7:28

Yeah, So here's what Deontay Wilder

7:30

had to say after his loss. Things like this happened

7:33

on The Best Man One to Night, But I was

7:35

already my leg was already recoming

7:38

in due to other little things. Well,

7:40

you know, I make no excuses to night. I

7:42

just wish that my corner would have let

7:44

me win out on my shield. I'm a warrior and that's

7:47

what I do. You know what I'm saying. What he

7:49

did, what he did, there's no excuses,

7:52

and would come back and bestow wild

7:54

did the warrior dropping alun Deontay Wilder

7:56

also dropping the clues monster Tyson Fury. That's

7:59

the heavyweight boxing it is. I say they stopped

8:01

a good I think that stop

8:03

it. And if I was Wilder, I wouldn't rush back to do a

8:05

rematch. You know they do. They do have a clause to where

8:08

the loser can say he wants a rematch within thirty

8:11

days. And I think for the next fight, Tyson will

8:13

get sixty percent of the sixty

8:15

percent I think, while they get forty.

8:17

But I don't think he should rush back. I think he should fight another

8:19

tune up fight and then come back and fight Fury.

8:21

And about the years I was out in vague as everybody was

8:23

saying, no, no, that's boxing. He lost

8:26

on purpose because you know, the money's in the trilogy I'm

8:28

like, no, did you see the fight he lost

8:30

like Fury. Everybody

8:32

knows Furry has always been a better

8:35

boxer than Deontay Wild, But Deontay Wild

8:37

does a sluggers so being that he got that right hand, you think

8:39

he's never out of a fight. But I mean,

8:41

you know, Fury just outboxed him, Ye outclassed

8:44

him. It seemed like he was more prepared than Wild. I

8:46

don't know what game plan while than his training

8:48

crew had because even when he didn't make no adjustments

8:50

when he went to the corner. But it's just boxing. And

8:53

it was one point where Tyson Ferry appeared

8:55

to look blood off of He

8:58

didn't appear to who he did. He said he was before the

9:01

fight. He said, I want to taste your blood. He

9:03

said, I want to taste blood before the fighting. Either way,

9:05

if you've been watching the lead up to the fight, he said,

9:08

I want to taste your blood. When I was watching

9:10

that scene, people were like, he didn't really lick him. There's

9:12

a lot of things for the fight, though, you know

9:14

what I mean, They say a lot of things. You want

9:16

to kill someone in the ring. I didn't think he really

9:18

do it. You think Mike tyson wouldn't eat your children back

9:20

in the day if given the chance. In the hedge

9:22

space, he was in the eat hey

9:25

frym and put a little season and all that. What the question

9:27

I had was, should they have stopped the fight right?

9:29

Yes? Now, Dean while his coatrain and

9:31

Mark Breland threw on the child to stop the fight, but

9:33

his co trainer said he disagreed with the action.

9:36

And they did say he was taken to the hospital to have a

9:38

cut in his air stitched up. That cut through off his equilibrium.

9:41

Yeah, no, they stopped it right on time. I think, yeah,

9:43

I don't think the cut through off his equilibrium. I think everybody

9:45

was saying that he had They thought he had a rupshed drum

9:48

and they said that's probably what through off his equilibrium. But I

9:50

just I mean, if you know anything about Deontay

9:52

Wid, he's never cared about being on his bike,

9:55

meaning he you know, the legs and the stamina

9:57

of the cardio, that's not his things. I think that's

9:59

all caught caught up with. But I would say said

10:01

it did throw it off right right before they threw

10:04

in the towel, he did throw a left so it wasn't like he

10:06

was totally off when he was done. But when

10:08

he when he was getting tapped up in that corner, he still through. He was still

10:10

throwing. All

10:12

right, guys, two

10:15

rounds. No, he threw a left right right right when he got hitting the

10:17

chin. Look at it. Look at the replay, all

10:20

right, well at this front page news. Get it off your chests

11:43

a is an NAACP Award

11:45

winner. Yes, And I'm sitting back like,

11:49

how's all these good artists being passed

11:51

11:53

a lot of good artists out here, listen, is a dope artist?

11:55

11:58

dope artist? Bro? I just said, there's a lot of ones

12:00

who ain't getting the praise and the

12:02

homage is hurt, like what is she doing that

12:05

12:07

of the Year award. So this last

12:09

year she was the Entertainer of the Year. Somebody

12:11

had to win. Who you think should have won? Cardi

12:14

Drake. Carty and Drake have

12:16

one inp awards them but they didn't put out

12:18

any last year. Can't keep

12:21

winning it. I mean, I'm just saying, we ain't gonna

12:23

keep talking about hurt. That's all I'm saying. I'm not hating

12:25

on it. You know, she sounds a little bit of like, hey, brother,

12:27

But I mean it would make what you would say would make sense

12:29

if Cardy and Drake had projects out last year. They

12:31

didn't have projects out last year. Hey all

12:34

right, And when you have an amazing album

12:36

12:38

of awards. I mean, it happens all the time.

12:43

a lot of awards two people might be like, did

12:45

12:50

had some It had some tunes, only it didn't really

12:53

might cook kill. I thought you was about

12:55

agenda. Honestly, honestly, I can't

12:57

hate on nobody that's more successful than me. That's

13:00

I mean, that's what we do. That's the era we live in. Everybody

13:02

13:04

15:38

people? So what I wanted to tell us,

15:41

Um, it's black chestry money. And I'm

15:43

15:46

the black people are actually

15:50

killing off each other. And shut

15:52

up, shut up. God

15:55

17:04

17:06

the rapper being interviewed by Lizzo. He

17:08

posted this clip. Also, we'll

17:11

17:13

a hundred thousand dollars a month just to

17:15

17:17

Breakfast Club Morning.

17:24

Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela

17:26

Yee, Charlomagne, the God, We all the Breakfast Club.

17:29

Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Wendy Williams.

17:34

She's filling the team. This is the

17:36

rumor report with Angela Yee on

17:39

the Breakfast Club. Well,

17:42

looks like Wendy Williams has a new

17:44

boyfriend and that person is a celebrity

17:46

jeweler, William Selby aka

17:49

a will to Boss. He's a jeweler, shout

17:51

the will. Yeah. So he also

17:53

shared a video from the Wendy Williams

17:55

Show. She said a mystery man gave her a diamond

17:58

heartshaped necklace for the high days, and he

18:00

posted that video and yeah,

18:03

they've been posting pictures hugged

18:05

up together. Then Saturday

18:08

morning, she posted a picture that showed the two

18:10

of them cuddling at the studio with

18:12

a rapper Black Poppy. That's

18:14

who they were in the studio for. I guess he manages

18:17

that artist. And she also shared

18:19

a picture of them at dinner. She said, three meatballs

18:21

plus good company equals danger.

18:23

So well, not much weed,

18:26

Kevin Hunter smokes nowadays like life has to be stressful.

18:28

Put the phone down, keV Okay, just because you stay

18:31

out the picture, it's not gonna make it go away, all right now.

18:34

ACP Image Awards went down over the

18:36

weekend, and of course

18:38

we've been talking about that this morning. We were actually nominated.

18:41

We did not win, but it's our first time being nominated

18:43

for nub ACP Image Award. We were nominated

18:45

for Outstanding News Information Series

18:48

or Special and Unsung One for TV

18:50

one. So great show are we any

18:52

of those things? Especial

18:55

were not a special. We are a series. It's a series

18:57

or special series. Especially we are a series. I wish

18:59

we didn't know. I didn't know. I wish we'd known the rules

19:01

and people can actually vote, so we could have told people to vote.

19:04

I honestly didn't mean everybody else was telling people

19:06

to vote. Literally literally everybody will

19:08

the old nominated all right now, Entertainer of

19:10

the year was a Lizzo for Outstanding Comedy

19:12

Series in TV Blackish one, Anthony

19:15

Anderson won for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy

19:17

Series and Dion Cole one for Blackish also

19:19

for Outstanding Supporting Actor, and Marsin

19:22

Martin one for Outstanding Supporting

19:24

Actress. She actually won a lot too, so she was

19:26

on that stage a lot. Shout out to Lynn and Witfield. She

19:28

went for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama

19:31

Series. She was also staying at our hotel,

19:33

so we ended up having drinks all night and

19:35

her daughter Grace and

19:37

talk series was Red Table Talk. Angela

19:40

Bassett, who was in the building, also one for

19:42

Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series for a nine

19:44

one one, Tracy Ellis ross one

19:46

for Blackish for Outstanding Actress in a Comedy

19:49

Series. A lot of great things happened, so

19:51

that was an n double ACP Image Awards. Brianna

19:54

actually ended up getting the big award for

19:57

the night and she actually turned the focus

19:59

back on her activism. Here's what she said.

20:01

We can only fix this world together.

20:04

We can't let the desensitivity

20:06

seep in it. But if it's your problem,

20:10

then it's not mine. I mean, how many

20:12

of us in this room have colleagues and partners

20:14

and france from other racest sexist

20:17

religions. Well then you know they

20:19

want to break bright with you, right, Well then

20:22

this is their problem too. So

20:24

when we're marching and protesting

20:27

and posting about the

20:30

Michael Brown juniors and the attack

20:32

Tianna jeffersons of the world,

20:35

tell your friends to pull up. Yeah,

20:37

she got the President's Awards. You gotta stand

20:39

innovation for that speech. She should have

20:41

been specific and said tell white people who to pull

20:44

up though, because black women always show up for white

20:46

feminist movements. But when she was on the other foot,

20:48

they don't really show up for the sisters like that. So

20:50

she especially, you know, when it comes to Black Lives Matter and

20:52

things of that name. She should have been specific and

20:54

said, tell your white friends to pull up. All

20:57

right, now, Chance the rapper, we talked about

20:59

how Lizza was Entertainer of the Year, where he

21:01

posted a throwback from when she and

21:03

when Lizzo interviewed him back in two

21:06

thousand and twelve, He posted, anybody

21:08

recognized the woman interviewing me? Give you a hint.

21:10

We're playing the same Houston festival in a couple of weeks

21:12

and had the same number of Grammys. Guys,

21:15

this video is so dope to see. It was twenty twelve,

21:17

a year before Acid Rap even dropped, and

21:19

I was being interviewed for a small magazine

21:21

in Minneapolis called green Room, right

21:23

after a small show I was playing. I remember it like

21:25

it was yesterday, and it was eight years ago while

21:28

I've watched Lizzle work her ass off to become

21:30

the biggest act in the world, and it was nothing but her

21:32

and her day one best friend's hard work and

21:34

her own God given talents. So

21:37

here is a snippet from that. Let's talk about

21:39

your style. You have

21:41

a very likely collected choice in like

21:43

your beats, and you choose from like

21:46

bay Rum got a Paula Brown. Yeah,

21:49

you have a walk with flocking joint all

21:54

right now. Christiano Ronaldo, he actually,

21:57

according to reports, gives his girlfriend

21:59

one hundred thousand dollars a month to help her with

22:01

her lavish lifestyle. So you

22:03

know, he's pretty rich. His net worth is around

22:05

four hundred and sixty million dollars and

22:08

he gives one hundred thousand dollars just to whatever

22:11

she wants. Yeah. Wow, that's light

22:13

for him though. Yeah, so his fiance, Georgiana

22:15

Rogeriguez, is she's an allowance having

22:17

a great time. The guy makes forty five million dollars

22:20

a year. Bro, like he's a soccer player, but

22:22

an allowance, he just just do you? Yeah,

22:25

okay, guy makes like six hundred and sixty

22:27

three thousand dollars a week. All

22:30

right, his money's stupid.

22:32

All right, Well I'm angela. Yeah, and that is your rumor.

22:35

Come on, man, it's allow one. Just sounds

22:37

crazy to me that I didn't say allowance. I said

22:39

he gives her a hundred thousand dollars a month. That's

22:42

an allow one. I mean you probably do the same thing to your

22:44

woman. No, yes's no allow ones.

22:46

I can't say, hey, baby, is your money, whether you give

22:48

it to her directly or interact, whether you buying her stuff,

22:50

it's the same thing. She has a credit card and the credit

22:52

cards. How much you think

22:55

she spends a month, I

22:57

don't know. I bet

22:59

you if you looked at up, probably close. But I get my daughter

23:01

an allowance, which also they're not married yet. By

23:03

the way, it's his fiance Mariam. Neither

23:06

shoot you hart to give me a one hundred grand

23:08

a month. I gotta buy his cow for your bird man.

23:10

All

23:13

right, I don't know how much it's gonna jump up. I'm far

23:15

married you my goodness. Now we got front page news next.

23:17

Yes, we're gonna be talking Bernie Sanders.

23:19

After the Nevada caucuses. They're saying

23:22

he is the person that you have to beat.

23:24

All right, we'll get into that next. Keeping locked this to breakfast

23:26

club. Good morning, good morning. Everybody is DJ

23:29

Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne. The guy

23:31

we are to breakfast club's getting some front page news.

23:33

We're starting well, let's start with Maryanne

23:36

Williamson. She is now endorsing Bernie Sanders

23:38

for president. As you know, she dropped out of the Democratic

23:40

race January tenth, and she had endorsed

23:43

him also in his first president to run back

23:45

in May of twenty fifteen. Now

23:48

for Bernie Sanders on his behalf, he's doing pretty

23:50

well right now. He's actually the one that everybody is

23:52

saying is the man that you have to beat if

23:54

you want to become that Democratic nominee. He

23:56

won in Nevada, and next up is South

23:59

Carolina. Right now he's polling second to Biden.

24:02

Yeah, I mean the DNC just needs to go with the player

24:04

with the hot hand. Bernie's been building this movement since

24:06

twenty sixteen. Bernie seems like the candidate who can

24:08

come closest to building that Obama collition, inspiring

24:11

people to vote who don't usually vote, and

24:13

he seems like the only candidate right now who can bring

24:15

people together of all racist genders and sexualities.

24:18

Now, Donald Trump tweeted out, looks like crazy Bernie

24:20

is doing well in the great state of Nevada. Biden

24:22

in the rest look week, and no way many Mike can

24:25

restart his campaign after the worst debate

24:27

performance in the history of presidential

24:29

debates. Congratulations Bernie, and

24:31

don't let them take it away from you. Republicans

24:33

are excited about possibly Trump running

24:35

against standers because socialism

24:39

and Trump's campaign went after socialism and all

24:41

of that, so they feel like that is actually a

24:43

great way for Donald Trump to win. Well, that's one of

24:45

the things Bernie needs to do. Who needs to tweak his message

24:47

a little, even though he won't because he's been saying the same thing for years.

24:49

But instead of calling his socialism, call it compassionate

24:52

capitalism. And I need Bernie to have a black

24:54

agenda and I need him to announce a black woman as

24:57

his VP, preferably Nina Turner.

24:59

I think a the little things will help him going in the Super two of day

25:01

all right now, Pete Buddha Judge was in Denver

25:04

on Saturday night and there

25:06

was an emotional moment that happened with a

25:08

young supporter who came to the stage

25:11

had a question, and here's how it went.

25:13

I don't think you need a lot of advice for me on

25:15

bravery. You seem

25:18

pretty strong. It took

25:20

me a long time to figure out how to tell

25:22

even my best friend that I was gay. And

25:25

to see you willing to come

25:27

to terms with who you are in a room full

25:30

of a thousand people, thousands

25:32

of people you've never met, that's really

25:34

something. So let me tell you. Let me tell

25:36

you a couple of things that might be useful. The

25:38

first thing is that it won't

25:41

always be easy, but that's okay because

25:44

you know who you are. Young Zachary Rowe, who's

25:46

nine years old. The question was, would you help me tell

25:48

the world I'm gay too? I want to be

25:50

brave like you about to say, y'all confuse me

25:52

because I like what was the questions it was a fish bowl

25:55

question, so he didn't actually ask the question.

25:57

He came to the stage, someone else pulled it out of

25:59

the fish bowl ask that question. And he's only nine,

26:01

so you can see the video of him standing

26:03

there while people to just answers his

26:06

question. All right, and

26:08

again, Oh, did you know Adrian Browner got arrested

26:10

at the Giant Wilder Tyson Fury fight

26:13

at the way In. Yeah, he's banned from the building, right, Yeah.

26:15

They said they warned him and he refused

26:17

to leave the MGM Grand on Friday,

26:20

and twice they said he was told

26:22

he was not allowed to visit that property at

26:24

the MGM, and regardless, he still showed up

26:27

to the way in. Why is he bann from the building? Does anybody

26:29

know? They do not. We do not know, because

26:31

he's not gonna fight the ever again. If

26:33

he's a banned from the building, he can't they

26:36

brun getting another fight. I'm

26:38

sure. Why are you

26:40

so sure? I mean, he's still a name that

26:42

people would love to go see. I think when I lose,

26:45

they would love to see hibox. You don't think so not

26:47

at this point? No, All

26:50

right, well I'm handling ye and that is your front page.

26:52

You wouldn't want watch another Adrian Broner fight. He

26:54

would have to really work hard and get it together.

26:57

And I

26:59

didn't want to say come back, and do

27:03

you know in the last time Adrian Brunners want to fight.

27:06

That's my that's my point. But you still people

27:08

still watch his last fight, right, people

27:10

know his name. I'll say that people

27:13

know his name, and they know his antics outside of the

27:15

ring. The focus in the ring that's been long,

27:17

long, long long. But if they showed like

27:19

him getting ready and training really hard

27:21

and looking like he can do something,

27:23

I think people are watching. But he got to build it back

27:26

up again. I saw him this weekend at the press

27:28

conference and they asked him what his interests outside of boxing,

27:30

and he said pornography. Nothing

27:32

about him looks like he's ready to get back in

27:34

that ring in no way shape or for him. And I

27:36

like gay b, but nah, the focus just isn't

27:39

there right all right? Well

27:41

at his front page news Now when we come back,

27:43

Nia Long will be joining us. We'll kick it with Nia

27:46

Long when we come back, So don't move. It's the Breakfast

27:48

Club, come morning, the Breakfast Club

27:53

morning. Everybody is Steen j MV

27:55

and Ngela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we all

27:57

the breakfast club. You have a special guest in the

28:00

in the building. I

28:03

was gonna say the beautiful we

28:06

have here, good morning,

28:10

Nia Long. I said, you got your own

28:12

day in New York from the mayor. Also, oh

28:14

my you guys. I cried about that for

28:16

like a week. Yeah, congratulation.

28:19

That was like the biggest honor. And I was

28:21

so blown away, honestly, because

28:23

you don't expect, like I have my own day

28:26

August twenty seven. Yes, you feel the

28:28

pressure to have to do something on that day now, like in New

28:30

York, like an event to come here every

28:33

year on that day and talk to you. That's what I can

28:37

Yeah, we can do that. Let's do it. We can do that.

28:39

Coming up, I know it is. How

28:41

are you though? I'm okay. I

28:44

lost my father condolescently. Thank

28:47

you. He was a great man, and it's it's

28:49

it's amazing. I learned more about him

28:52

by being in Trenton, in Trenton,

28:54

New Jersey for a week, just

28:57

putting the whole thing together than

28:59

I ever knew. And he was such

29:01

an icon in the community and did so much for

29:03

so many of those kids. Living down

29:05

there, so I was I was really proud of him.

29:09

He's a poet, yeah, he's a poet, a writer,

29:12

a photographer, like a real just

29:14

a renaissance man, love jazz music

29:16

and good food. And he

29:19

was really like Lorenz Taton Love Jones, but older.

29:21

But I felt the school, Trent And High

29:23

School did a beautiful tribute to my father.

29:26

I could not stop crying. I was just saying, this is

29:28

amazing, because sometimes

29:31

what a person can't do for their own

29:34

children, they do for the world.

29:36

And I'm okay with that. If that meant that I had

29:38

to share him, well, I think that's because parents

29:41

they learned more than they as they grow so

29:43

when they was raising us. Yeah,

29:47

I was thinking about that. I was thinking. I said, mommy,

29:49

I looked at my mother during the service. I said, Mommy,

29:52

you were twenty two years old when you had

29:54

me. Right now, two day anything,

29:57

I forgive you for everything, because I couldn't have done it

29:59

at twenty two, twenty two. I was in the club.

30:01

It's been a heavy conversation with my therapist the past

30:03

couple of weeks. What's that that whole conversation about

30:05

forgiving your parents? But my father in

30:07

particular because they only to do the best that they

30:10

could because they didn't know any better when they were younger.

30:13

You have to really do it for

30:15

yourself. It's if you commit

30:18

that healing to with yourself,

30:21

it will honestly change the way you

30:24

experience your own life, because

30:26

I think for a lot of years I was I

30:28

was disappointed and angry, and I wanted,

30:31

you know, my dad to like read me a

30:33

bedtime story and be there

30:35

and do all of the things that a daddy is supposed

30:38

to do. And I think my

30:40

father had a very old school way

30:42

of approaching life because

30:45

black people are raised to

30:47

survive, that's right. And my

30:50

mother and my grandmother, coming

30:53

from the Islands, they had a different philosophy.

30:55

So had my parents stayed together, I

30:58

may have still been an actress. But I don't think it

31:00

would have happened as quickly

31:02

as it did in my life, and I don't think I would

31:04

have been a part of the era that

31:06

really helped to define black cinema. When

31:09

I look at my life and I'm going to be fifty, this

31:13

that's great. Fifty you guys,

31:16

I get to do what I want to. I

31:19

can't. We got we gotta upgrade,

31:21

the turn black crack. It's got to be talking about fifty

31:24

Wow, I can't believe it. But my

31:27

point is is when you get to this age, it's a

31:29

beautiful time in my life because I can

31:31

actually put everything into

31:33

perspective and now it all makes sense,

31:36

and I feel more free

31:38

and alive than I have in the last

31:41

ten years because I have understanding

31:44

and I've forgiven myself for not forgiving

31:47

people sooner in my own life, or forgiving

31:50

my father for things that he was unable to do.

31:53

And it's a good thing to do. Don't

31:55

we have the luxury of healing? No, this generation, like this

31:57

generations, the luxury of healing. The fact that you

31:59

just I've taught spoken to my therapist

32:02

about certain things. Black people

32:04

were not saying that fifteen twenty years ago.

32:06

We were like, we didn't because because

32:08

there was this you know, the idea was if

32:10

you go to therapy, there's something really wrong with you. But

32:13

reality that you're crazy. And the reality

32:15

is is we have so much information coming

32:17

at us. You need to be able

32:20

to sit down and organize

32:22

your life and your thoughts right. And if

32:25

you don't do that, you will be in a constant

32:27

state of you'll have anger. Yeah,

32:30

yeah, Well you have a lot of amazing things happening

32:34

first of all. And before we get into the Banker,

32:36

you are producing now too, I did.

32:39

I just produced my first film. Congratulations

32:42

on that. So when do we get to see

32:44

that? Um, it's called Fatal Affair.

32:47

It's on Netflix and it's with Omar Epps.

32:49

I think it's coming out in July, that two Black

32:52

cinema, right, yeah,

32:54

and that's why I cast him. Know, I'm meant to ask.

32:57

I want to go back to your dad. I just had a question. You

33:00

know what, you have two children? Yes, do

33:02

you do anything different than

33:04

what your dad would do with you? Because my dad was a police

33:06

officer. He was very protective. Well, my

33:09

kids, I try not to be as protective

33:11

because I hated it. Right, Is there anything

33:13

that you do and say, you know what? I make sure I do this because

33:15

I don't want a parent like them. I kind of didn't

33:17

like that. Is there anything I have

33:19

to be honest with you? My mother was the probably

33:22

Thank god I was born like a decent

33:25

human being, because my mom

33:27

was very hands off, but

33:30

she was very free and it was the two of

33:32

us. And remember she was twenty two, so we were like

33:34

best friends. My parents

33:36

divorced when I was super young. Again,

33:40

my father's idea of success

33:43

for me was, go to college,

33:46

get your degree. If you want to be an actress,

33:49

go get a job as a waitress, and

33:51

then see how that works out for you, right, And

33:53

I was like, I'm not doing it that way. I

33:55

don't need to go to college to do what I want

33:58

to do. So I went, I did a little

34:00

bit, and then then I started working because again

34:03

that was during the time where there was, you know, a handful

34:05

of brown girls really working and

34:08

I got lucky and blessed and it happened

34:10

for me. So the way I raised my boys,

34:12

I'm super honest, probably too honest.

34:15

My son, my older son, my nineteen year

34:18

old, and I talk about everything, I mean,

34:20

the nitty gritty down that

34:23

oh my god. I was like, I don't want to hear. That's

34:27

enough. And he was a late bloomer,

34:29

so he didn't have he was a late bloomer. And

34:32

then my little gun was so that now he's

34:34

out here dating, he

34:36

is a full flower. Maybe you just feel

34:38

comfortable telling mom everything. Now I

34:41

know a lot. I know more than I want to know, and

34:45

I'm okay with that. But but here's what I'm

34:48

the most I'm most proud of. He's

34:50

a good dude. You know where we are

34:52

now is it's interesting because we're in a bit of a

34:54

tug of war because he wants

34:57

to be his own man and

35:00

he's in college and he's on his way and he

35:03

plays baseball and he's handsome

35:05

and smart and all the things. But I'm like, dude,

35:08

you're not paying any bills yet. So

35:10

there's a fine line between

35:13

Mom, you don't know what you're talking about and we're

35:15

gonna do it this way. Absolutely, So

35:18

I try to give and take because I want

35:20

him to make those mistakes so that he can learn

35:22

who he is. Right, all right, we got more with Nia

35:24

long when we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast

35:27

Club, Gomona Morning. Everybody is DJ

35:30

Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne

35:32

the guy we are the Breakfast Club were still kicking

35:34

it with Ni Along Yee. You do have this

35:36

movie The Banker, Ye come

35:38

out? Yeah? And so this is based on a two story,

35:41

right Bernard Garrett, he's a businessman, but

35:43

this is in the sixties and back

35:45

then the forties to the sixties, so basically

35:48

the whole civil rights era, right, So at

35:50

first he was trying to do real estate. But that's

35:52

hard when you're a black person back then, especially

35:55

trying to buy into the real estate market as

35:57

hard as a black person now. It's yeah, but it didn't

35:59

imagine, but it was like a red V I could even

36:01

imagine and redlining. So we were basically

36:04

cast out of the process period and

36:07

not allowed to get loans. And so these

36:09

two men came into the game and really

36:12

changed helped to change

36:14

the laws so that black people

36:16

could get loans and that we could buy property

36:19

and we could start investing into

36:21

our own communities. And they had to actually

36:23

get a white person to be the front of their business, Yes

36:25

they did, played by Nicholas Holt,

36:28

and they used him as the frontman

36:30

to trick the banks into selling

36:32

the banks to them, and eventually

36:36

it implodes. But it's a fun

36:38

ride and it's a great history lesson.

36:41

And I think we need to start having the conversations

36:43

about rich versus wealth.

36:46

I think you need to have a rich spirit, but

36:49

you should strive to be wealthy

36:51

because wealth is generational. Absolutely,

36:54

we have to recondition the way that we're

36:56

thinking about our place

36:58

in the world, because at the end of the day, day we

37:01

are I believe, the

37:03

heart and soul of culture.

37:07

We control the cool all of it. So

37:09

if we're controlling that, why are we not controlling

37:12

the money? Because we're creating

37:14

the avenue to make the money.

37:17

And I'm guilty of it too. I'll go buy a channel

37:19

bag instead of you know, But then I'm

37:22

like, but I need both. Right, there's

37:24

kind of bald. As long as you know

37:26

you can invest in the things you need to invest in, and

37:28

you can cheat yourself. I think there's nothing wrong with

37:31

you. Got a care of all this and I had this

37:33

leftover a lot, and I'm good. I

37:35

can buy myself a bag. Right, But as

37:37

I tell myself that all the time, we would never toch.

37:40

I'm glad that you you would never Toalch.

37:42

And I think this generation our kids, Yes,

37:44

I think it'll change. Yeah, we're getting new tools,

37:46

new resources. Everything everything we're talking about, from

37:48

therapy to real estate, all of that stuff

37:50

is new tools with resources we're passing on. And

37:53

there's also a wider lane

37:55

to find success. How draining

37:57

was the bank at all? Because when you do a movie like that you really

38:00

lot of things aren't really different in two thousand

38:02

twenty. I will tell you that it was

38:04

not an easy shoot, mostly because

38:06

we didn't have a lot of money to make the movie to begin

38:08

with. It rained when it wasn't

38:10

supposed to, and when it was supposed to it didn't.

38:15

You know, here's the thing. When you're making

38:17

a film about history, and

38:19

there are very few films out there where we get

38:22

to see black people in

38:24

a heroic position changing

38:27

history, you want to get

38:29

it right right, And so obviously

38:32

I'm depending on my director George Nlphie,

38:34

who was fantastic and

38:37

gave us so much room to

38:39

be whatever we thought we needed

38:42

to be in the role. And Samuel Jackson,

38:44

who I freaking love him, and

38:47

Anthony Mackie I play Anthony Mackie's

38:49

wife. We had a good time,

38:51

but there was just an underlying feeling

38:54

of intensity because we knew that we had

38:56

a social responsibility to educate

38:58

and take people on a journey. And

39:00

this was supposed to be the first movie on Apple

39:03

TV plus also right the first well

39:05

it was, and then we had a little bit of a hiccup,

39:08

right, Um, I mean, listen,

39:11

that has nothing to do with the movie, and

39:14

I'm glad that we got a new release date and

39:17

we I'm very sensitive to women and

39:19

what women go through, and I don't think any woman should

39:21

be violated. But I'm

39:24

just glad that Apple has sort of regrouped

39:27

and given us a platform to release

39:30

the film because I think it's an important film. That

39:32

was a weird reason not to put the movie out.

39:34

It's not like anybody that was in the movie did

39:37

something, you know what I mean, I know, I agree

39:39

with you. It's almost like they don't want that story to be told,

39:41

like, let's not put this out inspire

39:43

Black people that doesn't have felt like, well,

39:46

well, women had a reason to fill

39:48

away when they see somebody glorify that was

39:50

not glorifying to them for

39:53

what they allegedly went through, because

39:55

it was, well, here's the thing. Bernard

39:58

Garrett had two wide. He

40:01

had the wife that I play,

40:03

Unice, and his first

40:06

wife, and he had a white wife. So

40:09

I think the story that

40:11

we told was about his

40:14

experience with Unice, and

40:16

the woman who came forward was from

40:19

a second marriage. So I don't

40:21

know anything about it, but I do. I

40:23

mean, I think Apple had to go through the process

40:26

of is like, what else? Is

40:28

there something that we don't know that's going to come

40:30

in and shut

40:33

us down? But I also

40:35

think there is you know, you

40:37

don't need to be too careful, be

40:40

careful and respectful, but don't be too careful

40:42

and kill the project that

40:44

we so need to see. What

40:48

is that kind of the same thing

40:53

that could inspired a lot of black people. I

40:55

don't know, I just felt that way. Yeah. I think

40:58

also too, we are sadly

41:01

we don't get to see a lot of films or we are the

41:03

heroes, and so when you have

41:05

that one project and it gets like a start

41:07

stop, you automatically

41:10

go to wait, is this personal

41:13

or is this justified? Watching The Banker,

41:15

one of the hardest things must be for

41:17

the character Bernard Garrett to actually

41:19

have to still be so respectful when people

41:21

were being so disrest Imagine

41:24

having to bite your tongue when people are being

41:26

blatantly racist and doing

41:28

illegal things to you just because of the color

41:30

of your skin. Yeah, and he still had to

41:32

be like, yes, sir, I'm sorry, sir, no, and look

41:35

down. It was funny. There's one

41:37

scene in the movie where I have

41:39

this conversation with Nicholas Holt and

41:42

in the film, I'm basically saying

41:44

to the Nicholas Holt character, I'm like, you

41:47

don't understand all

41:50

of this because you're not black. And

41:53

I wanted to be fiery,

41:55

not in the same way that you wouldn't

41:58

say Tay Diggs when you say yeah, no, not that,

42:02

and the director kept saying,

42:04

no, she she wasn't that kind of woman. She was

42:06

more reserved. She was a

42:08

lot more selective with her words.

42:11

And it's to your point. She did

42:13

her pushing in silent it was their pillow

42:15

talk, you know. So with her husband

42:18

at home, she would be aggressive

42:20

and pushy and honey, no, we can do this. But

42:23

in front of others, and especially

42:25

a white man, she would choose

42:27

her words carefully. And

42:30

that was hard for me to play because

42:34

it was almost very passive aggressive. That's

42:36

kind of how people operated, like. No one

42:38

was that direct because you don't know what could

42:40

happen. If you don't know what could happen, I hate

42:45

negroes like that. Don't

42:48

be all amped up around your own people. But then you're

42:50

get in front of the white people. You all dished out, but you

42:52

have to understand. Like there's one scene where

42:54

the police come but that was

42:57

Yeah, I hear it was a different period in time.

42:59

You could get killed or it's something. Take like it

43:02

was one period with the police officers come, he owns

43:05

the property and they're like this woman

43:07

called and said, you are acting as if you're

43:09

owning the owning this this property.

43:11

And he has to pull out the paperwork and show

43:14

it. But that could have went totally left if

43:16

he said what he wanted to say. But we still

43:18

act like that now. The problem, it's like we still

43:20

have that trauma whisper

43:23

whisper around white I

43:25

don't either. Actually I look forward

43:30

like she's difficult, she's a

43:32

pain, and yeah, I'm a pain in the I

43:37

mean, I like white people. I don't have a problem

43:39

with them. But we gotta still be us

43:41

at all times. But I will always

43:43

be my authentic self in the moment,

43:46

and I will always speak up for what I believe

43:48

in, and I will always give my opinion.

43:50

If I think it's necessary, and I don't, I

43:53

will say no. And especially in this business, what you

43:55

said is important. Sometimes you have to remind him you don't

43:57

know what the hell you're talking about because you're not black. Period.

44:00

All right, we got more with Nia Long when we come back,

44:02

don't move. It is the Breakfast Club, Good Morning Morning,

44:05

everybody is DJ Envy,

44:07

Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we all

44:09

the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Nia Long

44:12

actress. Ye. So, Nia, how is

44:14

your experience producing for the first time?

44:17

Like when you said, yeah, I cast it, I

44:21

admit that. Did I say it? Like? Because

44:26

you know, I've seen you talking about how you see all these

44:28

white men getting rich off of movies that you're

44:30

in, and now look at you producing.

44:33

Is that the inspiration for that? And what was it like being

44:35

on the other side. It was difficult

44:37

at times because I

44:39

was very specific and deliberate

44:41

about certain things. And and to

44:44

your point, the crew

44:46

was white, the director was

44:48

white, the producer was white. And

44:50

they were lovely because they allowed me

44:52

to correct things that needed to be corrected.

44:56

But it's still frustrating that

44:58

you have to over explain yourself.

45:01

I kept feeling like I needed to apologize

45:04

for wanting to change something. But

45:06

why am I apologizing? Right? You're

45:09

trying to make this the best movie you possibly can make it

45:11

everybody, And that's also being a woman

45:13

in a position of power where there's

45:16

all men around you. I was literally

45:18

like they were literally like three women on

45:20

that side, and I never backed

45:23

down. I was like, Nope, you need to change that. Nope,

45:25

don't like that angle, Nope, move the camera,

45:27

Nope. You see that a lot like if you know, if that's a guy, and

45:29

they'll say that guy's being a boss, but if it's a woman,

45:31

they'll be like, oh, he alone has a history

45:34

of deva behavior. Yeah, for sure,

45:36

because when I started in this business, you

45:39

weren't supposed to say anything except thank

45:41

you, And I was like thank

45:43

you, but I wasn't even aware.

45:45

I was just being myself. I just don't

45:47

think that you need to behave in

45:50

any situation. I think you need to grow and

45:52

learn. Do you feel your evolution

45:54

as a woman is shown to your characters? Mhmm.

45:57

Not in Rock Sand Rock Sand. I don't know that

46:00

lady. She's

46:02

not a part of me. I do know that lady,

46:05

but I had to know that woman and have

46:07

some experience. Look, we live right down the street

46:09

from the projects when I lived in Brooklyn to understand

46:12

how to play her right, I

46:15

mean, I'd like to do more. I'd like to have more diversity

46:18

in my portfolio. You haven't

46:21

played your dream real yet, right, I don't

46:23

think so. I think it's also

46:25

like the body of work is what

46:28

makes me proud, right,

46:30

such an impact to this day and age, Thank

46:33

you, and I'm still doing it. But

46:35

after every job, I'm like, Okay, what's

46:37

that the last one? What's happening next? And

46:40

it never is. Still got a lot in the pipeline.

46:42

Yea to the young actress right now.

46:44

That's that's watching this and wishing to be you

46:46

one day or like you one day. Authenticity

46:49

don't change based on what you see,

46:52

change based on what you know you need to do to

46:54

better yourself. Because I think a lot of times

46:57

young artists come and they steal

46:59

a little bit of this, and they steal a little bit of that.

47:02

But if you really start from your

47:04

authentic self, that all the embellishments

47:07

will come through your experiences and that's

47:09

what creates and grows the artists. When

47:12

we did Love Jones, Everyone's

47:14

like, oh my god, this is like the modern

47:16

Dame Mahogany, And I was like, okay,

47:19

but that isn't that What art is. You take

47:22

from the past and you recreate it, and you

47:25

are to be inspired by the thing

47:27

that came before you and the thing that's

47:29

in front of you. What do you think was different about blacks

47:31

in them in the nineties though? That's lacking now because black

47:35

films don't have that feeling. I'm sorry it is.

47:37

They just don't. There's no boys in the hood, there's

47:39

no love Jones is. It don't have that same energy.

47:42

I know, I don't know, and

47:45

I and I have a hard time watching

47:48

things because I'm like, well, wait

47:50

a minute, why did they do that? Or but the lighting

47:53

or the I think one of

47:55

the things is we were using real

47:57

film. Now everything

47:59

is digital, so the

48:02

quality is different. And with

48:04

film you had to light

48:06

it, not this one big

48:09

light that lights everything and then they go in the

48:11

computer and adjust it. So

48:13

I if I look on the monitor, I'm like, you need

48:16

to fix that right now. No, no, no, we're gonna fix

48:18

it. In posts like no, no, no, no, no, We're

48:20

gonna fix it right now, because I'm not going to be

48:22

in post and I want to see what I look like. And it's

48:24

not because I'm vain. It's because if I don't have light

48:26

in my eyes, I can't perform. I'm

48:30

not act because well, because some people

48:33

speak with their eyes right. Some people

48:36

have bigger eyes so they don't

48:38

need the light in their eyes. But I have very

48:40

almond shaped eyes, so you don't light

48:43

my eyes. You don't see what I'm

48:45

doing the emotion of yeah, like I don't.

48:47

I think. I think your eyes tell a story.

48:50

Yeahs. I've seen

48:52

some visually stunning films that still will

48:54

whack though, Like I don't

48:56

want to say I always

48:58

want to say I didn't

49:01

like I guess we can say this now. I didn't like Queen

49:03

Islimp. I didn't see it. I should

49:06

be ashamed of myself, but I was

49:08

actually really dealing with my dad during that time,

49:10

and I was like, I can't even I want

49:13

to see it. Um. I think people had mixed

49:15

reviews visually stunning. I just I

49:17

just didn't like the story. So I understand what you're saying about

49:19

lighting stuff, but it's the story. Boys in the Hood

49:22

was a great story. Love Jones was a great

49:24

story. But a Society was a great story, and he's

49:26

the stories. Just be whack man. Look, here's the

49:29

thing to create art. You

49:31

don't need to be slick. Don't

49:33

don't be slick. Yeah, just me just

49:35

tell the damn story. You don't need to go, oh,

49:37

what if we do this? Yes, no, because there's

49:40

only what do they say, four stories to be told

49:42

over yeahy tragedy.

49:45

Yeah, I mean, you know, it's it's not that

49:48

it doesn't have to be that difficult. Yeah,

49:50

because here's what I think we struggle with. We

49:53

struggle with wanting black people

49:55

in film to look professional, to

49:58

have jobs, to be educated. But

50:00

then you still want to tell

50:03

the hood tale. Hood stories can have that Shakespearean

50:05

phil You can't tell me Boy in the Hood was in a

50:07

tragedy. Absolutely, absolutely,

50:11

but but but so you

50:13

have to have well developed, dynamic

50:15

characters. If you don't start from that, then the

50:18

story is not going to be great. And

50:20

I think, I don't know, I don't

50:22

know, like I think, you know, when you have a person

50:24

like John Singleton rest his soul and

50:27

when he died, that broke my heart, right,

50:30

he discovered me, he created a lane

50:32

for people to even care about my name, and

50:35

so losing him and then losing my father

50:37

and I was like god like and they were kind

50:39

of like the same kind of dude. You know, I

50:42

don't know that they make them like that anymore. I

50:44

don't know that they make men

50:48

that are so aware

50:51

of the black struggle, so

50:54

savvy to make change and

50:57

then make art. I think it's

50:59

one person right now as making that black

51:02

activism through art at that level.

51:06

Yeah, think was the one.

51:08

No, No, I agree with you. I think she's a beautiful

51:10

filmmaker. And I also think it's nice

51:13

to see a woman's perspective because

51:16

there's a softness about all

51:18

of her films that I appreciate. Um.

51:21

And I think we're in a in a place right

51:23

now where women just have this lane to be fantastic

51:26

and to be heard and to to

51:28

do it our way and not have to conform

51:31

or make ourselves small. And

51:33

it's because of her. I worry

51:36

about this generation because I don't think they

51:38

pick give any respect to the

51:40

people have paved the way for them.

51:43

Um. And when I say this generation, I'm talking

51:45

like twenty year olds. They don't They just don't have any concept.

51:47

Maybe they're just young, I don't know. It's also

51:50

a lot easier how they can get into that.

51:52

You can just you gotta do is have like

51:55

some good lashes and good contour

51:57

and you can be a star. Now. So

52:00

what does that tell you? And some followers mister

52:02

grand followers. You need followers, so

52:04

you got to produce more you

52:09

have and I

52:12

will as well. I

52:14

will thank you. That was a beautiful interview. Appreciate

52:17

Mark six. That's right, The Banker's March

52:19

six in theaters, yes, and then on Apple

52:21

TV Plus is it after? It's in theaters after?

52:23

And I'm going to look up to date free right now? Okay, um

52:28

the twentieth. Okay, you see they changed the

52:30

date on us, so given

52:32

the right date, the twentieth on Apple TV

52:34

Plus, all right. The Breakfast Club's

52:37

Miss niel on listen, just

52:40

oh gosh, report

52:43

got

52:46

Breakfast Club? Well, Wiley

52:49

was on Joe Button's pull up and one

52:51

thing that they had it back and forth about was

52:54

famous people. Here's what Joe Button

52:56

had to say and how Wali responded, Jesus,

52:58

I, hey, famous people with

53:00

people y'all live in like this other

53:02

demension? Why you keep saying y'all because you're

53:04

famous? Ain't you on the TV show?

53:07

Yes? Don't you got a podcast that's like one

53:09

of the biggest podcasts in the world. Yes, aren't

53:11

you interview on one of the best

53:13

rappers of all time right now? Yes? So

53:16

what does that make you popular famous.

53:19

Next question, Joe, Joe really

53:22

got to knock off the anti industry gimmick

53:24

like he wears you say you hate all famous

53:26

people. Joe, you wear

53:28

mink coats for Doris and you're on loving hip

53:30

hop? All right, your industry as hell? Stop it. He's

53:34

famous. Still put it out there. Stop

53:36

now. While after they posted this on the Shade Room

53:38

said, I said what I said as I said before, I work

53:40

hard, were allowed to be great and believe in our

53:42

greatness. Happy Black History Month. You

53:45

know, if you work hard and you end up being famous,

53:47

should that be make you somebody that's

53:49

hated? No? Okay, yes,

53:52

all right. Now. Justin Bieber performed at Kanye

53:54

Sunday Service, and here's what

53:56

he had to say about dreaming doing about

53:59

doing that. They asked me if

54:01

I would if I would come up and sing something, and I

54:03

was like, you know, I don't. I don't really know. I got kind

54:05

of anxious, and so I have this thing on my

54:07

phone says why am I anxious?

54:09

But it's uh, it's intake, imbalance,

54:13

indecision, integrity,

54:16

intention, imagination,

54:19

and isolation. You look at

54:21

these things and I'm like, what is my intake? Right,

54:24

now my balance right now, if

54:26

I look at my wife thanks to me, who

54:28

I love so much? Indecision.

54:31

Am I gonna do this? Am I not gonna do this? I'm

54:33

gonna do this because tomorrow's not promised?

54:36

All right, Well, what did he perform? He did Marvin

54:39

Sappon. Never would have made it. I never

54:41

lost it all. But

54:45

now I see that

54:47

you were there for

54:49

me, and I can't say

54:53

never would have made it. I

54:59

never man

55:05

never would have made it. As the ultimate trying to heal a

55:07

song when you go through that dog space in your life and you

55:09

come out on the other side, but you're still healing. Who

55:12

that never would have made it? Always it's different

55:14

now. In addition to that, they were also doing

55:16

Sunday Service with praising

55:19

over the music by Roddy Rich and nas

55:21

here some of Roddy Rich. What

55:37

are they saying now, because I know they changed the word that Sunday

55:39

service. So that's Kim Kardashian's

55:41

phone. So that a drop, that's all I heard.

55:43

Gotta take gold for the gotta thank God for the drop.

55:46

That's that's the only part I heard, thank God for the drop, like drop

55:48

top, I don't know sure

55:51

that's what they said. I think I heard to drop a manner

55:53

from the sky. What is the drop? I gotta

55:55

thank God for the drop back

55:58

and study that I gotta hear the words. I can't, you know,

56:00

because I know that they changed the words to make the songs

56:02

less secular. All right now, Jada Pick

56:04

and Smith, she posted a preview of Red

56:06

Table Talk and she by the way, they win an NAACP

56:09

Image Award. A couple of them and

56:11

Snoop Dogg is going to be on this Wednesday,

56:13

and part of what they're talking about is the Gail

56:17

King situation. When you first

56:19

came out and you said what you

56:21

said, you know, in regards to Gail,

56:24

my heart dropped. I felt like,

56:26

not only were you talking to Gail, but you were

56:28

talking to me. I was like, oh no, Snoop

56:31

has now taken his power float away

56:33

from me, away from Willow,

56:36

away from my mother. If

56:38

this is what's happening, I was like, not,

56:41

Snoop. And so that's

56:43

one of the reasons why I felt like I

56:45

really wanted to have the conversation

56:48

with you in the spirit of healing.

56:51

Red Table Talk is really the new Principal's office. You

56:53

get in trouble. You were getting called in to the Red Table talk on

56:57

Wednesday, so we will see what this healing come

57:00

table talk like when your mother tells you wait till your father gets

57:02

home. Red table talk is the fathers you hear

57:04

me, We'll be like, but I guess the moral of the story

57:07

is stopped calling our black women bitches.

57:09

It's like when you grew up Jehovah's witness like me

57:11

and the elders to call you in the back to talk to you before they

57:13

decided to this fellowship you. That's what red table talk

57:15

is. I would like to ask Jada, though I hope you

57:17

know and I hope this came up, like why is

57:19

she taking it personal now? Like Snoop has

57:21

been calling women bitches and holes for

57:24

decades? Why this time did you take

57:26

it personal in this moment? I'd like to know the answer to

57:28

that. And maybe she felt like this was directly directed

57:30

towards one person, you know, and

57:33

and somebody who was an elder. That's all the more

57:35

reason I to take it personal and as gale of

57:37

us or did you think else about what she's asked? At

57:40

all we ever heard from us since she accepted

57:43

Snoop's apology, and you

57:45

know, she's spoken on it a couple of different she apologize,

57:47

she doesn't, she doesn't feel like she needs to apologize. I'm

57:50

just curious. No she did. I think she said immediately

57:53

the family. No, I'm talking about when she apologized

57:55

to I think she said she apologized to the family or something

57:57

like that, if I'm not mistaken, right. I think she

57:59

also said as a journalist, sometimes what she has to

58:01

do is difficult. So that is

58:03

true. All right, Well I MANDI like, yeah, and that is

58:06

your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss ye Charlemagne,

58:08

Yes, you give me that donkey too. You know, I need all these flatter

58:10

fools to come to the congregation because y'all

58:12

got some blood on your hands this morning, and we're gonna

58:15

talk about it, all right, goodness, all right, we'll get

58:17

into that next keeping lock this to breakfast Club the morning

58:20

I was going to donkey. It's the donkey

58:23

of the death Charlemagne

58:34

Devil Breakfast

58:37

Club. Yeah, I's donkey today

58:39

for Monday, February twenty fourth, goes

58:41

to all you flatter fools. Okay, anybody

58:44

in here believe it? The Earth is flat? Anybody no

58:46

good good, all you flatter fools

58:49

have blood on your hands to day because of what happened

58:51

to a daredevil by the name of Mad Mike

58:53

Hughes. Now sadly, Mad Mike Hughes

58:55

is a flat Earth all right. The only reason flat

58:58

Earth has exist because now it's like some

59:00

exclusive club to be in. All right, to be

59:02

a flatter of fool makes you different. Okay.

59:04

For the record, I usually refer to him as flat

59:06

Earth niggas, but I'm really trying to fall back on using

59:08

the N word and I want to be able to call flat Earth is

59:11

something that everyone can use, So flatter

59:13

fool it is, all right, She flatter of fools

59:15

don't give a damn about what NASA is talking

59:17

about. They don't give a damn about what you know. Astro

59:21

Physic's the words there you go are

59:23

talking about. I forget all the photographic evidence

59:25

that we've seen, never mind the Sun and Moon and other

59:27

planets we see that around the Earth

59:30

is flat, okay according to them.

59:32

Now, I'm not even gonna sit here and say flat Earth is a wrong.

59:35

All I'm saying is based off all the evidence that we've

59:37

seen that show us the Earth is round. I'm going

59:39

to need more than Kyrie Irving Bob

59:42

in YouTube videos telling me that the Earth

59:44

is flat in order to believe that. Okay, one

59:47

question for all you flatter of fools, what

59:49

would be the reason for anyone

59:51

to lie to us about the Earth being flat? Why?

59:54

What would be the point? Would he make a difference

59:56

if you were living the way you were living right now, if

59:58

the world was the same way as it is now, if you could

1:00:00

just walk to Starbucks in the morning, the Chick fil

1:00:02

Aire, wherever you're going, would you care if it would flat

1:00:05

around? Of course you wouldn't. It wouldn't

1:00:07

matter. You wouldn't care. So why would

1:00:09

Big Bad NASA and every other space program

1:00:11

in the world all collectively

1:00:13

lie to us about the world being round?

1:00:16

What would be the point anyway? Mad

1:00:18

Mike Hughes is a man who had a desire

1:00:20

to prove that the planet is indeed shaped like a

1:00:22

frisbee, and he's made a lot of homemade rockets.

1:00:24

In fact, he made so many homemade rockets that he was scheduled

1:00:27

to debut later this year on Discovery

1:00:29

Inc's Science channel in a TV show. Okay,

1:00:31

In a statement last year, Discovery Inc. Described

1:00:33

the forthcoming show that Mike would be on as a look

1:00:36

at three self financed teams

1:00:38

with sky Hide Dreams and their cosmic

1:00:40

quest to explore the Final Frontier

1:00:42

on a shoe scring budget. Mad

1:00:45

Mike wanted to do things like raise money to launch himself

1:00:47

to the border of space on a vehicle

1:00:49

described as part rocket, part balloon. Mike

1:00:52

wanted to reach five thousand feet into the sky aboard

1:00:54

a steam powered rocket. Somebody

1:00:57

is listening to Elton John's Rocket Man Won too many

1:00:59

times and read one too many Rocketman and Rocket Girl

1:01:02

comic books. Okay, take that and add to

1:01:04

it the fact that he wanted to prove to Earth is shape

1:01:06

like a frisbee. And add into the fact that all

1:01:08

you flatter fools who sit around arguing

1:01:11

with folks about whether the Earth is flat or around.

1:01:13

No, damn well, it's just the weed

1:01:15

making you feel this way. Put all that together,

1:01:18

and you all are responsible

1:01:20

for what happened to Mad Mike Hughes. Would you like to

1:01:22

hear what happened to Mad Mike Hughes. Yes, let's

1:01:24

go to w CASE. No not w k

1:01:27

c R, A NBC three FT report police

1:01:29

A man skeptical that the world is round,

1:01:32

and died after launching himself into

1:01:34

the sky with a home built rocket. The

1:01:36

moment of takeoff was caught on camera. We do have to

1:01:38

warn you the video, it's pretty hard to watch. The

1:01:40

man here, who went by mad Mike Hughes,

1:01:43

set this up in the desert Saturday afternoon.

1:01:45

The sixty four year old was killed when the rocket

1:01:48

plunged back to the ground. You can see a lot

1:01:50

of people around this launched. They're filming

1:01:53

witnessing this. This is not the first time Hughes

1:01:55

trying to determine if the Earth is round by launching

1:01:57

himself into the air. Back in two thousand

1:02:00

eighteen, he was propelled into the sky with

1:02:02

a parachute in the Mahabi Desert and

1:02:04

injured his back. That time, he's dead.

1:02:08

He's dead. This is all

1:02:10

you flatter of fool's fault, because

1:02:13

nobody stopped him. All right. If he's making

1:02:15

homemade rockets for the sake

1:02:17

of just making homemade rockets, fine, But if he's making homemade

1:02:19

rockets to prove the Earth is flat, this is

1:02:22

every single one of you flatter of fool's

1:02:24

fault. See, when you are a part of a group. It's

1:02:26

easier, you know, you know the

1:02:28

believe things. Being part of a group makes you feel a slightly

1:02:31

better connection to things. Okay, I promise you,

1:02:33

Mad Mike would still be alive today if

1:02:35

he had nobody else to

1:02:38

believe in this foolishness with him. Okay,

1:02:40

flat Earth is not only a thing because y'all make

1:02:42

it a thing. It's like people who think Tupockets

1:02:45

still alive. Matter of fact, I take that

1:02:47

back, because it's more evidence that Tupac could be alive

1:02:49

than it is. The Earth is flat all right. In fact,

1:02:51

if you believe pockets alive, I might can understand

1:02:54

why. Okay, I can understand why you feel that way.

1:02:56

But the earthian flat. No, you have no evidence

1:02:58

to back that up. But you're belief in the flat

1:03:00

Earth is the reason Mad Mike

1:03:03

Hughes is no longer with us. How

1:03:05

many flat Earth is gonna be at his funeral? Huh huh?

1:03:09

Please give all these flat earth fools to sweep sounds of

1:03:11

the Hamletones. Oh no you are do

1:03:14

gee? Oh the

1:03:17

damn the

1:03:20

dogee? Oh

1:03:23

the day ye shut

1:03:29

up? Just shut up, shut up, don't

1:03:31

say it. Okay, I

1:03:33

see you over to your little fingers are just typing on that. Damn

1:03:36

compute it. Don't say nothing. What did

1:03:38

he google? Drums? What did he? What

1:03:41

did you go? I

1:03:44

don't say nothing. I'm not okay, all

1:03:47

right, what happened? Nothing? Thank you for that donk of the

1:03:49

day. So now when we come back, Charlomagne

1:03:52

kicked it with Pete Davidson. Yes, my guy, Pete Davidson

1:03:54

from Saturday Night Live. He's got a special

1:03:56

coming out on Netflix tomorrow called Alive

1:03:59

in New York. You know, he's got a movie coming out

1:04:01

1:04:04

Big Time Adolescence. All right, he's got a

1:04:06

lot of he's got a lot going on. All

1:04:08

right, we'll kick it with him when we come back, So don't move. It's

1:04:10

the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast

1:04:13

Club, petd

1:04:16

Yes, sir, I gotta sit here and talk to you for an

1:04:19

hour, like I don't talk to you often to see

1:04:21

all my Pete notes. Yeah, it's

1:04:23

so crazy. You got a lot going on, bro,

1:04:25

Yeah, well that How are you feeling? First of all,

1:04:28

I feel good. I feel like I'm in a good place

1:04:30

right now. What does that mean? I'm

1:04:32

just a good place? Meaning for Pete things a good

1:04:34

place. I'm just really looking forward to,

1:04:37

like doing cool stuff with a lot

1:04:39

of my friends, have a lot of cool stuff coming out, and

1:04:41

we're working on stuff. So it's just nice to be in a place

1:04:43

where that's the focus and not like, you

1:04:46

know, anything else. Why doesn't Pete do

1:04:48

interviews? I don't. I

1:04:50

don't think I'm very well perceived.

1:04:52

I don't think. I don't think my

1:04:55

language works well in print,

1:04:57

so when it comes to print, it just looks like I

1:05:00

say monstrous things and then I have to deal

1:05:02

with, you know, my pr and

1:05:04

my mother and then like all these other job

1:05:07

stuff. So I try to stay away from it. But

1:05:09

like, yeah, man, but it's not like you're an asshole,

1:05:12

thank you. Yeah, that's the whole that's

1:05:14

that's the issue. That's why it's so confusing. Yeah.

1:05:16

Yeah, So you're reading stuff about yourself

1:05:18

and you'd be like, who is this guy? Yeah, I'm like am I

1:05:21

Like after a while you're like, I guess, I don't

1:05:23

know, you know, So, like I try and stay away

1:05:26

from all that stuff, but like, you know,

1:05:28

these are I've always have a good time. No, recently,

1:05:31

especially over the past few years, you've had a lot of

1:05:34

relationship drama. Yes, a lot when

1:05:37

you take away of the lesson and growth from

1:05:39

all of that from relationships

1:05:41

just relationships in general. We'll get into the individual

1:05:44

relationships. With just relationships

1:05:46

in general. I think you grow a lot

1:05:48

as a person. I've learned a lot

1:05:50

from the awesome checks that I've

1:05:52

been with and they're all cool. So

1:05:55

I think you just grow, you become a better

1:05:57

version of yourself, because like you

1:05:59

learn a or something from everybody, so you'll probably

1:06:02

life. It's so publicized. Has it been distracting

1:06:04

from your career? You think, oh yeah,

1:06:06

I think people only know me from my which

1:06:09

is even my uncle.

1:06:11

He's like, you got anything coming out? You're just just

1:06:14

packing heat. It becomes very distracting.

1:06:16

And like I've been very fortunate and lucky to

1:06:18

date like some really wonderful, like beautiful,

1:06:21

cool, talented women, and like with that

1:06:23

comes that unfortunately, So like I'm

1:06:25

aware like that there's but I do think

1:06:28

I get it a little harder than most.

1:06:30

I would say with the following, but like you

1:06:33

know that comes with the territory. How much

1:06:35

is it off? How much of it is awful limits? Because I saw

1:06:37

you newstand especially on Netflix because

1:06:39

at the bar, yes, sir, a matter of fact,

1:06:41

yes, and you know, miss Ariana Grande is

1:06:44

it's a point line. Yeah. And there's a couple in

1:06:46

a few of the jokes. Yeah. So what's awful limits

1:06:49

for you? Um? I think genuinely

1:06:51

being hurtful as off limits or like

1:06:53

anything like being or

1:06:55

anything like I want to be cool with everybody. Um,

1:06:58

but you know, stand ups part of my life. That

1:07:00

was a highly publicized thing. I feel

1:07:03

like she got her fair run and her fair

1:07:05

stab at it. And uh, like

1:07:07

I said, I don't have social media and I don't

1:07:09

have an outlet really to express

1:07:12

my feelings. So like, you know, stand ups just how

1:07:14

I do it, and I just have some jokes about it. So

1:07:16

yeah, they were saying that she might have been

1:07:18

throwing some shade at you at the grammars. I'm

1:07:20

sure she was Queen shade

1:07:23

again like all, like, I get it. That's her

1:07:26

job, like you know, she has to, that's

1:07:28

her aura, she has like music

1:07:31

to it and stuff. I get it. So

1:07:33

like, I hope people feel the same

1:07:35

way about my jokes. I listen, I'm glad you

1:07:37

do it. And the reason I'm glad you do it because a lot of people

1:07:39

recognize you is it will say, oh, that's Ariana

1:07:42

Granddin's fiance right first,

1:07:44

and then Pete Davidson on the first one, ye

1:07:46

first and only still got that. You still

1:07:48

got that for my family. I did that for America, you

1:07:51

understand, So every every kid

1:07:53

out there and every uncle when

1:07:55

they introduce you with that first, then

1:07:57

sometimes Pete Davidson the comedian actor second.

1:08:01

You know what I'm saying, So, oh yeah, for sure, how did that

1:08:03

pack your eagle or what you give yourself? Then

1:08:06

it hurts. It definitely hurts because you know, I've

1:08:08

been doing this for like ten years, so like it

1:08:11

sucks for like a six month thing

1:08:13

to just completely take

1:08:16

over that. And then it's also just like wha is

1:08:18

he just getting this because of that? Or

1:08:20

that because of that? You know, not a lot

1:08:22

of people know it, knew anything until

1:08:25

I started dating her, so like, yeah, it's difficult,

1:08:27

and like it's definitely a little bit of a punch in the gut.

1:08:30

You know, you definitely want someone to be like, hey man,

1:08:32

good work, not like hey, we're

1:08:35

like you know, like you know,

1:08:37

it's just you know, did they help you get

1:08:39

probably? I mean I assume right,

1:08:42

like I don't know. I don't know what the

1:08:45

deal is. It's probably I don't I hope it doesn't run

1:08:47

out. You got a good you got a good defect broke,

1:08:50

you got like conflicts, got a good thank you.

1:08:52

I had Nick Cannon as a mentor, so I'm

1:08:56

just following in his footsteps, which

1:08:58

I've been told the

1:09:02

farm girls don't following

1:09:04

nixt footsteps when it comes to comedy of the next

1:09:08

game in Hollywood and with girls ever

1:09:10

as its leg it's historic. You're getting

1:09:13

up there, bro, your list is growing,

1:09:15

thank you. I'm not trying by I'm like trying

1:09:17

to make a grow. I just like, you know, the

1:09:20

thing is is like it looks like

1:09:22

I'm a whore, right, but I've only

1:09:24

been with those girls pretty much. So

1:09:27

it's like I've only been with like five six

1:09:29

people, you know, like if I was a

1:09:31

girl, i'd be like a virgin. And they

1:09:33

were relationships and they were like three at least

1:09:35

three to six months, Like yeah, bids,

1:09:38

ye call them. Yeah,

1:09:41

I'm not just like running through stuff. You

1:09:43

know, you're a whore in this situation. You're

1:09:45

getting ran through, right yeah, yes, yes,

1:09:47

ye, yeah, I'm the victim here. They passed you

1:09:50

because you've heard a bunch of Yeah. Probably

1:09:53

Now. You were quoted in your Paper

1:09:55

magazine cover story interview saying

1:09:57

that sometimes when you put so much on

1:09:59

someone and it overwhelmed them and then they

1:10:01

don't know if they could come close to that, and you feel

1:10:03

it you've had a hard time sharing

1:10:05

all the parts of yourself in relationships.

1:10:09

No, I share too much, and I scare

1:10:11

the people because I

1:10:13

have like a lot of issues and stuff and I like

1:10:16

to be very upfront about that. So there's

1:10:18

no like surprises, Like I don't want you to

1:10:20

be surprised, like if I cut

1:10:23

myself, or like if I like, uh,

1:10:25

you know, have to go away to a rehab, or like

1:10:27

if I have to go to like certain therapy or

1:10:29

something like that, because you know, it just

1:10:31

like breaks the ice easier and like a

1:10:34

month in that's just like but

1:10:36

it's like I don't want to waste your time.

1:10:39

Yeah, you know what I mean. So like I think

1:10:41

like I come across very like

1:10:44

intense, and like I think that scares a

1:10:47

lot of people away. So you've scared a lot of women away.

1:10:49

Oh yeah, for sure. Yeah, I think all

1:10:51

of them. I think they all are terrified. Yeah,

1:10:53

yeah, I think they all love me, but they're all definitely

1:10:55

like worried, which sucks.

1:10:58

I now keep it. Luck. We got more with Pete Davidson's

1:11:00

Don't Move. It's the Breakfast Club, Go Morning Morning.

1:11:03

Everybody is DJ Envy,

1:11:05

Angela Yee. Charomagne the guy. We are

1:11:07

the Breakfast Club. Now, Charlomagne got a chance to

1:11:09

kick it with Pete Davison. That's right. He's got a

1:11:11

Netflix special coming out tomorrow called

1:11:14

a Live from New York. Um. And

1:11:16

you know, we're just talking about everything, all right, his

1:11:18

relationship with Ariana ground day, to his all

1:11:20

his multiple relationships period, and his mental

1:11:22

healthful lot of stuff. All right, Well, let's get into it. How

1:11:25

was that when you when you was dating Arianna

1:11:27

and you know Mac passed away.

1:11:30

Yeah, and she was like openly grieving,

1:11:33

Yeah Mack in a real way, like, oh that's the love of

1:11:35

my life, my soul mate. Yeah, how did that affect

1:11:37

you? I totally got it because we were

1:11:39

only together for a few mores. She'd even tell you this like

1:11:42

I was. I was like listen, I was

1:11:44

like I get it. Do whatever you gotta do, I'll be here.

1:11:46

I literally said, like I think I said, I'll be here

1:11:48

until like you don't want me to be here, Like I pretty

1:11:50

much knew it was around over after

1:11:53

that, I was really horrible and uh,

1:11:55

I can't imagine what that's like, Like that

1:11:58

is just terrible. All I do

1:12:00

know is is that she really loved him

1:12:02

and she wasn't like, you know, putting on

1:12:04

a show or then she Uh that

1:12:07

that was And I hope,

1:12:09

you know, I'm pressed to his family and all

1:12:11

of his friends. Still, let's still everybody up,

1:12:13

you know, when his music comes out and see if he makes

1:12:16

great music, it's it's it's just awful. And

1:12:18

now you you mentioned rehab a little while ago and

1:12:20

you confirmed that you went to rehab through

1:12:22

a joke, right, Yeah. Is there anything

1:12:24

that's off limits in comedy when it comes to you, No, not

1:12:27

at all. That's the That's one of the beauties

1:12:29

of comedy. It's like music too. You

1:12:31

could just heal through pain and stuff.

1:12:33

And like it's really sad and

1:12:35

depressing to go to rehab, but like if you could get

1:12:37

a little crack, a lit or a little joke out of it,

1:12:39

then like it's it's less painful,

1:12:42

you know what I mean, Like to stay there maybe

1:12:44

it wasn't as bad, if that makes

1:12:46

sense. I don't think it's anything wrong with that though,

1:12:49

Like if you know you need some assistance

1:12:51

every now and then, what's the problem. I'll be back, Like I

1:12:53

just go, Like I have to get my meds readjusted

1:12:56

all the time because I have like by

1:12:59

in between by polar and borderline

1:13:01

and like PTSD and from

1:13:03

my childhood. So like you know, I have

1:13:06

to go and get readjusted every once awhil.

1:13:08

So, like I don't think I want to Rehab is that big of a deal.

1:13:10

I think it's like a really strong, powerful

1:13:12

thing. And some of those beautiful cool people you ever

1:13:15

meet there, well, I think that's the MISCONCEPTU

1:13:17

right. Some people think when you checking, the rehab is

1:13:19

always for drugs. Yeah, but it's not always

1:13:21

for drugs. Not always for drugs, I mean, and I do. I

1:13:23

do drugs absolutely, But I'm not like falling

1:13:26

over myself and all that. I just have. Like some

1:13:29

people are sad. Some people are gonna work and

1:13:31

figure their stuff out. And the beautiful thing

1:13:33

about rehab is like it gets you sober

1:13:35

so they can figure out what the problem

1:13:37

is. Like some people can smoke weed and drink

1:13:39

when they get out. It's like it's just you have to be

1:13:42

sober for a certain amount of time so they can

1:13:44

diagnose you properly. You know what I mean.

1:13:46

How do you know when it's time to go get help?

1:13:48

Like, Okay, I'm doing too much? Usually when

1:13:50

I start like cutting, or like when it gets

1:13:52

like just when it just gets a little insurmountable,

1:13:55

or like people are like, hey, my friends will tell

1:13:57

me. Now we're at a point where like people will come over and be

1:13:59

like, hey, you got a world pissed

1:14:02

and terrifies, not pissed, but like we're all

1:14:04

like worried, so you should go. I

1:14:07

got I got a good group around me. Where then they

1:14:09

give me, what does cutting look like? I

1:14:11

cut my chest? Uh that's

1:14:14

so that's why I started getting

1:14:16

tats all my chest is to

1:14:18

like cover them. Uh. It's just like

1:14:20

a release. It's just something that like, uh,

1:14:23

it's if you can't get a tattoo or like

1:14:25

if you can't it's never in like any like spot

1:14:28

that's like a serious it's just

1:14:30

like it's whatever, you're

1:14:33

so manic and upset. Sometimes

1:14:35

that's like the only thing that would work for me. But now

1:14:37

I like you go to rehab, you learn like, oh,

1:14:40

you could like take a cold shower, you could work

1:14:42

out, you could listen to music really loud, you

1:14:45

could read this excerpt, you could go

1:14:47

on the com app. You can call a friend,

1:14:49

you could wait five minutes. There's just you know

1:14:52

so much you learn that is

1:14:54

like eat into your brain if you get to do

1:14:56

some of that stuff. So like, um, you know

1:14:58

that's how I've been taking care of it. Did the cutting

1:15:01

bring any relief? Like, oh, yeah, it's

1:15:03

awesome, Well it's I mean, you know it's not awesome.

1:15:05

No, it's it's it's not awesome, But like the

1:15:07

feeling of it after it is just you're you

1:15:09

feel really stupid after, but like as

1:15:12

you're doing it, it feels really great. It's

1:15:14

like getting tadded. Okay, so you think

1:15:16

that you're trying to match I guess

1:15:18

physical pain would emotionally, Yeah,

1:15:20

when I'm really angry and upset, it feels really

1:15:23

good to just get like needled up or get

1:15:25

get a tad or like you know, like that you

1:15:27

think you've ever hit rock bottom, Oh, yeah, I hit it all

1:15:29

the time, don't. Well,

1:15:32

my rock bottom is when like people

1:15:35

are scared of my life and I have to go away

1:15:38

and then I have to bring myself back up again. So

1:15:40

like I think I've hit it a few times. And uh,

1:15:43

you know, as long as you're around

1:15:46

good supportive people, you should be able to

1:15:48

you know, and then if you're strong enough, you'll be able

1:15:50

to get out of it. What does that look like? You know? What does

1:15:52

rock bottom look like? It's

1:15:55

usually like I'm doing a little too much shrooms

1:15:57

and a little too much acid and just like having

1:16:00

a little too much fun and not sleeping,

1:16:03

not taking good care of myself. And

1:16:05

then when you don't sleep and you have a mental illness and you're

1:16:07

doing all this, it's just like it's

1:16:10

just I think what the lady and she

1:16:12

called it rocket fuel, and

1:16:15

you're taking your meds and all this mix of all the

1:16:17

you just go a little nuts. And I was

1:16:20

on accutane for a little bit. Try and ask you that

1:16:22

maybe nuts. So it's just, uh, it's

1:16:24

very manic and and very sleepless.

1:16:28

Acutaine is supposed to like if you take it for

1:16:30

like six months, it gets rid of acne

1:16:32

permanently forever. But it makes

1:16:34

you nuts for like six months. And when you

1:16:37

mix nuts with nuts, I

1:16:39

thought it would cancel each other out. It

1:16:41

did it. It just multiplied it and

1:16:44

I got a little while you have a suicidal yeah

1:16:46

all the time, but I can because I got a mom

1:16:48

and a sister and like a family. So like I've

1:16:50

always been suicidal, but I've never had like

1:16:53

the boss, you know, um,

1:16:56

which I'm very lucky, like

1:16:58

we for the first time, maybe like when

1:17:00

I went away this time, I felt like I had maybe

1:17:02

almost because it's starting to get

1:17:05

like, you know, when you're not feeling good

1:17:07

and you're going to all this stuff and there's like people

1:17:09

at your house in Staten Island, it just like really

1:17:11

drives you crazy. But like yeah,

1:17:14

but like they're not they're not as like constant

1:17:16

as it used to be. Does your work not

1:17:18

make you feel better? It's the only thing.

1:17:21

I love it. I love writing, I love hanging

1:17:23

with my friends. They're all really funny and cool

1:17:26

and stand up and yeah, it's the it's

1:17:28

the ultimate distraction. Anybody says,

1:17:30

Sandali give you because you got a very stand le vibe

1:17:32

about you. Thank you. That's the nicest

1:17:34

thing anyone's ever said. I really,

1:17:36

that's my It's my dream guy. No,

1:17:39

he's always just like you know, he's he's been through

1:17:41

it already, you know, so he's just like keep your head

1:17:43

up, you know. It's he just tells

1:17:45

me how to navigate through like you

1:17:47

know, these these the bastards

1:17:50

that are trying to bring you down, and you have conversations

1:17:52

with him about when it's time to leave SNL.

1:17:55

Yeah, I have conversations with a lot of people.

1:17:57

It's a it's a hard thing to do because you don't want

1:17:59

to pull the trigger too early. But everybody's

1:18:02

always been like you'll know when you know, and it'll

1:18:05

all be all right. So do you know? Yeah?

1:18:08

I like I Here's the thing is, like I personally

1:18:11

think I should be done with that show because they make

1:18:13

fun of me on it like a point it's a comedy

1:18:15

sketchle no, but like I get

1:18:18

it, but like I am like cold

1:18:20

open like political punchlines,

1:18:22

like I'm like we can update jokes like

1:18:25

not like hot not like like when I'm

1:18:27

not there, like they'll be like huh huh, but

1:18:29

Pizza's jerk face and you're like

1:18:32

whose side of you on? You know? It's

1:18:35

like a weird I have a weird feel feeling

1:18:37

in that building where I don't know whose team

1:18:39

they're playing for. Really, if I'm the joke

1:18:42

er, I'm in on the jokes, so like since

1:18:45

I really wanted last year to be my last

1:18:48

year, but you know, I'm still

1:18:50

around and trying to trying

1:18:52

to knock it away. So it doesn't feel

1:18:54

like a family environment. I

1:18:56

mean, like Laurens and he's like

1:18:58

the best and as treated me with nothing

1:19:01

but love and he's like a father

1:19:03

figure to me. But you know, as far as like everyone

1:19:05

else, it's like, you know, it's a cutthroat show.

1:19:08

Every everyone's trying to get theirn

1:19:10

1:19:18

You know, they don't. They don't give a at

1:19:21

the end of the day. You think it's because you

1:19:24

get more attention than a lot of other cast members.

1:19:27

No, I honestly think they're just wrapped up in their

1:19:29

own show. Honestly, it's just like, Okay,

the Rumor Report with Angela

1:21:37

Ye Breakfast

1:21:41

Club. Well,

1:21:44

d Wayne Wade, he had his jersey retirement

1:21:46

at American Airlines Arena and he was in Miami

1:21:49

doing three days of celebrating starting Friday,

1:21:51

where he had an intimate celebration for ninety

1:21:54

close friends and family, and

1:21:56

he also did a special performance

1:21:58

of his new singer with Rick Rus season ticket

1:22:00

holder. In addition, his documentary

1:22:03

came out yesterday on ESPN. Did you guys have a

1:22:05

chance to watch it? All?

1:22:07

Right? Well, he gets very real about a lot of

1:22:10

things. He talks about his divorce and also

1:22:12

being with his first wife since he was sixteen

1:22:15

years old and how he knew things weren't going to work

1:22:17

out, getting together with Gabrielle

1:22:19

Union and then having issues because they

1:22:21

took a break due to their demanding careers.

1:22:23

That's when he actually fathered a

1:22:26

child with another woman. He

1:22:29

discusses his family life a lot, and

1:22:31

you know, growing up with not much and he said he

1:22:34

had barely been to the dentist when he was drafted

1:22:36

in two thousand and three and he had

1:22:38

thirteen cavities when he went to the dentist

1:22:40

for the first time many years. Yeah,

1:22:43

so a lot going on he talks about getting his wife

1:22:45

getting pregnant, his ex wife getting pregnant with their first

1:22:47

child, and he was being he was a sophomore in

1:22:49

college at the time. So pretty

1:22:51

good documentary on ESPN Why you

1:22:53

got all that money and had the cavities but he

1:22:55

didn't have money. Said, okay,

1:22:59

what both o you get some money?

1:23:01

That's cool? All right, now let's

1:23:03

talk about Steven Spielberg. Apparently

1:23:06

his daughter announced to the world

1:23:08

that she is becoming a porn

1:23:10

star. She's been making solo sex

1:23:12

videos that she posted on porn Hub and

1:23:15

now she's working to get license to become an exotic

1:23:17

dancer in Nashville. She's a self proclaimed

1:23:20

sexual creature and said she got really

1:23:22

tired of not being able to capitalize on my body.

1:23:25

So also has an only fans account as

1:23:27

well, so you can see her on there. You can pay

1:23:29

fifteen dollars a month just to watch her. And

1:23:32

despite all of this, according to MICHAELA,

1:23:35

she says that her parents, Steven Spielberg

1:23:37

and his wife of twenty

1:23:39

nine years, Kate Capture, are not upset and they're even

1:23:42

intrigued by her life choices.

1:23:44

That's a horror movie. Steven Spielberg. I've

1:23:47

never known Steven Spielberg to be in the heart. But Jesus

1:23:49

Christ, your daughter becoming a porn star? My

1:23:52

god, I want to know, you know why

1:23:54

she go that way? Like as a father, do

1:23:57

they consider that she did something wrong? Like why

1:23:59

would it do to go in the poet? Well, she's

1:24:01

only doing self one, so

1:24:03

it's just her, so she doesn't

1:24:06

matter. It doesn't I don't want to see no poem my daughter

1:24:09

pourning my daughter. I don't even want the same

1:24:11

sentence. And she is engaged her fiance, Chuck

1:24:13

Pancout as a darts player, and he's

1:24:15

fifty years old. He's more than twice her age. He's

1:24:19

a darts player. Is that a sport? I

1:24:21

guess so. But she also told the son

1:24:23

she struggled with alcoholism, and she said

1:24:26

as recently as two years ago she was drinking every

1:24:28

day and even came close to dying from it. And as

1:24:30

a child, she said she was groomed and

1:24:32

abused by predators who were

1:24:34

not in her family or their circle of friends.

1:24:36

So she said, uh, you know, she was bullied

1:24:39

for her weight, she was bullied for her famous last

1:24:41

name. She struggled with bipolar disorder and anxiety.

1:24:44

She went to a boarding school for troubled teens, and she

1:24:46

said that didn't help. I came out of there with

1:24:48

more anxiety and more attachment issues, more depression,

1:24:50

and more hatred from my body. All

1:24:53

right, Erica Bado. In the meantime, let's talk about

1:24:56

her daughter, Puma. Her daughter is

1:24:58

a singer and they actually did a due for

1:25:00

a Texas TV show over the weekend. Check

1:25:02

this out. I huh a

1:25:05

whisper in the phrase long

1:25:08

before I took the time stop

1:25:11

and listen. Oh, the

1:25:14

fan came over slowly

1:25:18

shooks. Now. Yeah,

1:25:24

so that'd be really dope. You know. She's um

1:25:26

Doc's daughter and Erica Badoo's

1:25:28

daughter Pula. Okay, all right, Eminem

1:25:31

has a He's on a skit on Worst

1:25:33

to five nine new album. It's called

1:25:35

a prospective skit, and he talks about hip

1:25:37

hop's impact on our society, and

1:25:40

he also talks about how hip hop has brought

1:25:42

so many different people together. Here's what he says.

1:25:44

If I'm a black kid growing

1:25:47

up in let's say the sixties, seventies,

1:25:49

eighties, whatever, right, and I'm looking

1:25:51

on TV and nobody

1:25:53

looks like me, and it's very stereotypical.

1:25:57

And I'm looking at toys

1:25:59

in there and everything is white. The action

1:26:01

figures are all white. I don't know how

1:26:04

I grow up and not have a chip on

1:26:06

my shoulder. Roy's album is very

1:26:08

dope. By the way, I didn't get a chance listen to him.

1:26:10

He'll be up here this week. I love the record of Black

1:26:13

Savage with Burn Benny

1:26:15

the Butcher. I love the record. I think it's

1:26:17

called Upside Upside Downs with Bennie

1:26:19

the Butcher, Black Savages with TI and some

1:26:22

other people with TI snapped on it. Yeah, Benny

1:26:25

snapped, gonna tell me that. I mean, Royce is Royce

1:26:27

just different, man. That's age appropriate

1:26:30

hip hop. I'm forty one years old. I like

1:26:32

listening to rappers in their forties. I know what the hell they're

1:26:34

talking about. Okay, that's what I like, all

1:26:36

right. And Jesse Smilla is in court today,

1:26:38

just so you know. He'll be in court on renewed

1:26:40

felony charges for allegedly staging I Hate

1:26:42

Crime. He was indicted for a second time

1:26:45

February eleventh on six counts of felony

1:26:47

disorderly conduct after they decided

1:26:49

to reinvestigate the case if it was in the in

1:26:51

the interests of justice to bring renew charges against

1:26:54

him. So he will be arraigned today at

1:26:56

nine thirty am. And also today

1:26:58

is Kobe Bryan and Gianna

1:27:01

Bryant's they're going to be having the memorial

1:27:03

for them today. They'll be honoring the lives of Kobe

1:27:05

his thirteen year old daughter Gianna

1:27:08

as well. That memorial will be held at ten

1:27:10

am and that's one

1:27:12

pm Eastern at the Staples Center. The

1:27:15

date is of course very significant for the family,

1:27:17

and that's the twenty four

1:27:19

and the number two so to twenty four. The event

1:27:22

will stream live via NBC News Now,

1:27:24

on NBC news dot com and on the NBC News

1:27:27

Mobile app, and they'll also be live blogging

1:27:29

the memorial, providing real time analysis

1:27:31

and context. If you had wanted to get tickets,

1:27:34

obviously it was a high demand and there

1:27:36

were three tiers of ticket prices two

1:27:38

hundred and twenty four dollars for each ticket.

1:27:41

Then there was two hundred twenty four dollars for two and

1:27:43

twenty four dollars and two cents for some tickets

1:27:45

as well, and the limit for purchasing tickets

1:27:48

was two tickets per person. The proceeds

1:27:50

will go to the Mamba and

1:27:52

Mambasita Sports Foundation. That organization

1:27:54

exists to further Kobe and Gianna Bryant's

1:27:57

legacy the charitable endeavors in

1:27:59

sports. So that is today,

1:28:01

all right, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor

1:28:03

report. All right, thank you, missie. You know, every

1:28:06

1:28:08

1:28:12

All right, Well up next to the People's Choice Mix.

1:28:15

Get your request in right now at DJ MV.

1:28:26

Club. It's Black History, muff

1:28:29

and who were honoring today? You know today, man, I want

1:28:31

to celebrate Malcolm X. You know, on February twenty first,

1:28:33

nineteen sixty five, Milcolm X was assassinated.

1:28:36

The twenty first was this past weekend,

1:28:38

and I just want to celebrate the

1:28:41

life of Malcolm X right now by you

1:28:43

know, playing back. This is a snippet

1:28:46

one of his great, great statements. When

1:28:48

Malcolm X talked about the white

1:28:50

man putting that knife in our back, let's

1:28:53

listen to it. The Breakfast Club

1:28:55

presents a new Black History Month legend.

1:28:58

Did you feel, however, that we're making

1:29:00

progression in this No?

1:29:03

No, I will never espac that progress

1:29:05

is being made. If you think a knife in my back nine

1:29:07

inches and pull it out six inches, there's no progress.

1:29:10

He followed all way out. That's not progress. The

1:29:12

progress is healing the wound. That's the blow,

1:29:14

that for blow made. And they haven't

1:29:17

even begun to pull a knife album much. Let's try and put

1:29:19

heal the woomb you have you have. They won't

1:29:21

even admits the knife is there. And that was another

1:29:24

New Black History Month legend. Courtesy

1:30:35

of February, baby a rite,

1:30:37

1:31:08

better, you do what you want to do and

1:31:46

yeah, since we are talking about Malcolm X

1:31:48
