Speaker 3 (04:46):
Me?

Speaker 4 (04:46):
How are you nice to see you? Me?

Speaker 1 (04:48):
And me good to hear from you this morning? Me me,
We need the divine feminine energy in this room today.

Speaker 5 (04:53):
I'm trying to send it through the screen right now.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
We're gonna just.

Speaker 7 (04:57):
Sip it, ship it through, all right, y'all.

Speaker 5 (04:58):
So this in morning, we are starting with a major
decision at a federal court, one that just wiped out
two major criminal cases brought by the Trump administration. A
judge dismissing the charges against former FBI Director James Comy
and New York Attorney General Letitia James after finding that
Lindsay Halligan, the prosecutor that was handpicked by President Trump,

(05:20):
was never legally appointed, and the judge, as he simply
put it. Halligan missed the deadline, and when that deadline passed,
the Attorney General loses the power to appoint and it
shifts to the district judges. Now, as a result, all
of Halligan's actions, including both indictments, were thrown out. Now,
the cases were dismissed without prejudice, meaning the Justice Department
could technically bring them back with a properly appointed prosecutor.

Speaker 7 (05:44):
But in James Comy's case.

Speaker 5 (05:46):
That window has already closed, and since the indictment was
never valid, it didn't pause the statute of limitations, and
that deadline has now expired. Prosecutors should not be able
to refile. But we will watch what the Trump administration does.
But the case against Letitia James, it could be brought again,
but that depends on what the White House does next.
They plan to appeal. Let's listen to what the White

(06:08):
House had to say.

Speaker 8 (06:09):
I know there was a judge who is clearly trying
to shield Letitia James and James Comy from receiving accountability,
and that's why they took this unprecedented action to throw
away the indictments against these two individuals. But the Department
of Justice will be appealing very soon. And it is
our position that Lindsay Halligan is extremely qualified for this position,

(06:30):
but more importantly, was legally appointed to it.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
So yes, yeah, pres of all these cases being tossed
as great news, all right, just good to know there
are still some checks and balances in this country. We
all know both of these cases are politically motivated, part
of President Trump's revenge toss.

Speaker 3 (06:45):
So just good to know the rule of law still
matters to some people.

Speaker 7 (06:49):
It's still matters.

Speaker 5 (06:50):
So we'll continue to watch that and see what happens
as they file that appeal and as that legal battle
plays out. The Pentagon has sparked a new controversy of
its own, launching and investigation into Dimmerocratic Senator Mark Kelly.
So the Pentagon confirms that it is investigating Arizona Senator
Mark Kelly, he's a Navy combat pilot or a former
Navy combat pilot and a former astronaut, for possibly violating

(07:12):
military law. Now officials say the review could even lead
to recalling him to active duty for a court martial,
something that is almost never done.

Speaker 9 (07:22):
Now.

Speaker 5 (07:22):
This all started after Kelly, he appeared in a video
with five other Democratic lawmakers we talked about that last
week that in that video they told active duty troops
and intelligence officers that if they were ever given an
illegal order, they have the right to refuse it.

Speaker 7 (07:37):
Which is which is true under military law.

Speaker 5 (07:40):
Now, President Trump he blasted the group, calling the message
seditious behavior and saying it could be punishable, punishable by death.

Speaker 7 (07:47):
He later walked that back.

Speaker 5 (07:49):
But continued to accuse them of sedition now a short term.
Short time later, the Pentagon it announced that it had
received serious allegations of misconduct about Kelly and they are
now reviewing that if his comments broke military rules. Now
a lot of people are asking why just Senator Mark
Kelly when there were five other Democratic lawmakers who are

(08:09):
also in that video. Well, he is the only person
in that video who is a retired military officer. Now,
retired military officers, unlike veterans who simply completed their service,
legally remained under the Uniform Code of Military Service. That
means they can be recalled to active duty and prosecuted
if the Pentagon believes that they violated military law.

Speaker 6 (08:31):
Now.

Speaker 5 (08:31):
Kelly he is responding to this investigation this morning, saying
that he has honored his oath from the day he
entered the Navy through his combat missions for space shuttle
flights and public service. He said, the president's post calling
for him to be arrested or even executed are meant
to intimidate him, and it will not work.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
At irony of them investigating Mark Kelly for his comments.
But Trump made death threats and nobody cares. Trump made
death threats, and that meeting with Mundanni got those out
of the headlines in two seconds.

Speaker 5 (09:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
But Mark, now even just a death threats.

Speaker 5 (09:06):
He was retweeting people who were calling for them to
be hanged, you know what I mean? Like that was
just it was It was basically beneath the office.

Speaker 7 (09:14):
So we will continue to watch what that looks like.

Speaker 5 (09:18):
And coming up behind the truth behind those early Friday
was it Black Friday?

Speaker 3 (09:23):
Yep?

Speaker 5 (09:24):
Coming up the truth behind those early Black Friday deals
and what you've been seeing, will break down how to
save money and the best time to shot.

about filing for divorce last Friday and how hard it's been.
She said she was doing Amazon Live shopping experience and
said it's been a long time coming. And then she
said you should say pause after that, envy. All right, well,
this is her talking about the He did say, pauls
after saying long time coming. But and he talks about

(19:00):
her divorce from Todd and said it's been a long
time coming.

Speaker 17 (19:03):
Let's listen, No, Candy, and I'm sure y'all saw that
I filed for divorce on Friday. Right now, it's a
pretty crazy time. I'm gonna be very honest with you.
I am up and down. Obviously, going through a divorce
is definitely not the easiest thing. You know, sometimes you
know you're cool, you know what I mean?

Speaker 16 (19:23):
You move in you mix in, you move in and.

Speaker 17 (19:24):
You're hanging out with friends, and then sometimes you have
your moments of sadness, and me being the tourus that
I have, I like to keep those moments to myself.
And to be clear, yes I filed Friday, But you
know this is something that you know has been growing.

Speaker 3 (19:38):
For a while.

Speaker 17 (19:39):
So all the times you've been seeing me a whole
line line, all of that means nothing.

Speaker 16 (19:44):
I've been going through a child.

Speaker 17 (19:45):
Well, what I will say is Todd and I were
together for our marriage lasted eleven years, were together like fourteen.
We got two wonderful, beautiful children. I have no regrets.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
You know.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
Whatever I hear a women said they filed for divorce,
I always wan and if the man knew it was coming,
because if you're not expecting it, that has to.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
Be a gut punch, right, And I don't know what
hurts worse.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
You know, you know, getting the divorced papers are here
and it was a long time coming.

Speaker 4 (20:11):
So damn you've been not wanting to be with me?

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Yeah, And I guess as a man you should know
when things aren't the same in your house. But do
you know, do you know the difference between when things
aren't the same and you know, you might be trying
to figure things out and work things out, or when
it's just oh, when the person is fat up done.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
But you know what with men, I would say, a
lot of times we all delirious when a woman is done.
Delusional and delirious, I would say, because sometimes you feel
like you can fight for it back, like it's not
that bad, I can steal this, She's still mine.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
And then when you get that paperwork like that, Oh
my god, when.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
The vows say you know, for better or worse, you know,
till death for your part, like you know you're supposed to,
like you're supposed to fight for your marriage. I just wonder,
you know when she says it was a long time coming,
like did he know exactly?

Speaker 4 (20:54):
Oh, they trying to.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
Figure things out behind the scenes, but it just couldn't
be done. Yeah, what's him the best?

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Also, Lizzo says Ozempic is a racing big people.

Speaker 4 (21:05):
That's how she said it. Yep, there in the audio.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
No, no, it's no ideo, but this is what she says.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
She published a personal essay a few days ago on
Substack titled why is Everybody Losing Weight?

Speaker 3 (21:13):
And what do we do?

Speaker 2 (21:14):
Sincerely, a person who's lost weight, she said, she's out here,
she's currently weighs over two hundred pounds, and it's still
a proud big girl. And she feels as though plus
sized women are becoming a race in the age of
a weight loss drug like ozempic.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
She wants the big girls back, all right. First of all,
that's what Olympic is supposed to do, Lizzo.

Speaker 4 (21:36):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
People who don't want to identify as fat anymore, they
take these weight loss drugs in order to lose weight, okay.
And at some point in your life, your doctor will
even say to you that you need to lose weight
because obecity causes.

Speaker 3 (21:49):
A lot of health problems. Okay, that higher risk for disease,
whether it's stroke or high blood pressure or high cholesterol.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
So if people want to use ozimpic to lose weight
to lord risk of getting those diseases, God bless them.
And I also want to tell all the fat people
out there, you are not your fat.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Okay, you are not your fat.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
Just because you lose the fat doesn't mean you lose
who you are, all right. We all have a hidden
character inside of us that we can unlock if we
lose the weight, right, how she mean fat people aren't
being a race, They're just losing the fat.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Hash and roll with that hashtag. Save all big girls now,
she says. So here we are halfway through the decade
where extended sizes are being magically erased from websites, plus
size models are no longer getting booked for modeling gigs,
and all of our big girls are not so big anymore.
That though, we have a lot of work to do
to undo the effects of the ozimpic boom.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
First of all, how do you know everything of ozmpic?
How do you know people just aren't eating healthier? How
do you know people aren't just you know, working out?
Like why does everything have to be blamed on the
weight loss drug? What if people have just said, you
know what, I want to make better choices, healthier choices.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
And they're losing weight? Like, what are we talking about?

Speaker 1 (22:57):
I don't know being you know, in a lot of cases,
in a lot of cases, not all being overweight is
a choice. So when you start making better lifestyle choices,
you start losing the weight. I don't see what the
issue here is.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
And then closing, she said, we're in an era where
the bigger girls are getting smaller because they're tired of
being judged.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
No, I think people are just making their own individual
choices because they want to make their own individual choices.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
Just announce the link of Brian partnership already.

Speaker 4 (23:22):
What the hell's going on? And what is this about?

Speaker 3 (23:23):
What the girls? I guess I don't know what is this?

Speaker 2 (23:26):
And lastly, Tony Braxton speaks on Birdman. Now Lauren says,
you got to get this next one right, Envy. You know,
Birdman don't play about Tony and he don't play with
y'all either. He really don't like y'all. But just play
the audio of Tony Braxton talking in a relationship.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
Romance is never dead. It never dies.

Speaker 7 (23:42):
You have to open open yourself up to it.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
Okay, where is it for you today to dayste good
meaning just bringing on?

Speaker 4 (23:50):
So okay, are you married?

Speaker 3 (23:52):
I am? Okay, explain that to us, because you know
what you were married? You were.

Speaker 7 (23:57):
I heard a lot of different rumors.

Speaker 17 (23:59):
Yes, I heard that I'm getting one hundred and hit
them out a lot.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
I heard that too big check from a certain producer
was dropping off a bunch of money.

Speaker 18 (24:08):
I heard that too, that big check a rumored one
hundred and sixty million. The certain performer that be rapper
Birdman Tony denies those rumors.

Speaker 3 (24:17):
By the way. The backstory, the two.

Speaker 18 (24:18):
Tied the knot and seemingly split just forty eight hours later.
Last year, the pair apparently agreed to call off the
divorce in January.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
We've been friends forever for twenty five years. Romance from friendship.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
I just want Lauren to know that, no matter how
many times she takes, you know, Tony Braxton's album cover
into the hair salon, your hair's never gonna look like hers.

Speaker 3 (24:39):
Yes, so you got out it.

Speaker 4 (24:40):
That's all I got.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
That's got it all right.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Well, you could take that whole album covered Tony Braxton
from the nineties into the Hansalon.

Speaker 3 (24:46):
All you want your haircut will never look like her?
Is Lauren la Rossa, Jesus Christ.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Have a great vacation, all right, And that is the
latest with Lauren. Now when we come back, we got
some front page news and then the legendary icon Donnie
Simpson will be joining us.

Speaker 3 (25:26):
Let's get in some front page news.

Speaker 9 (25:28):
Now.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
Last night there was an NFL game I fell asleep for.
Did you see, Charlamagne?

Speaker 1 (25:32):
No, I was watching you know what I was watching
last night? I was watching Syracuse versus Houston. Syracuse was
playing Houston. I think Houston is the number three team
in men's college basketball, and Syracuse almost won. They took
them the overtime, barely.

Speaker 3 (25:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
I wanted to, you know, I wanted to see how
good Syracuse was because they were undefeated as well.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
But they took them the overtime. Wow, that team was
pretty impressive.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
Now and Monday night football, the forty nine Ers beat
the Panthers twenty to nine.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
What's up to me?

Speaker 7 (25:56):
Good morning, Charla Mane, Good morning, and be how y'all
doing this morning?

Speaker 4 (26:00):
Can highly favorite me me?

Speaker 7 (26:01):
Good morning?

Speaker 5 (26:01):
Okay, So we start this hour by saying goodbye to
one of the last living witnesses to the Tulsa Race massacre.
So Viola fort Fletcher, known to so many as Mother Fletcher,
was the oldest known survivor of the nineteen twenty one
attack on Tulsa's Greenwood community. She died yesterday at one
hundred and eleven years old. Her family says she passed

(26:22):
peacefully with a smile on her face.

Speaker 7 (26:25):
That Mother Fletcher.

Speaker 5 (26:26):
She spent her final years fighting for justice, giving interviews,
appearing in court, and retelling the trauma she carried ever
since she was seven years old when a white mob
burned down Greenwood, once known as Black Wall Street, in
just sixteen hours, thirty five blocks were destroyed, thousands of
black residents were detained, and hundreds more beaten and killed.

(26:47):
Here she is, in her own words, telling the story
of how she carried this for more than a century.

Speaker 7 (26:51):
Let's listen.

Speaker 19 (26:52):
Good night of the massacre. I was awakened by my family.
My parents and five Siblts were there. I will never
forget get the violence of the mob. When we left
for her home. I still see black men seeing being shocked,
black bodies lying in the street. I still swell smoke
and see far. I still see black businesses being burned.

(27:17):
I still hear airplanes flying overhead, I hear the screams.
I have lived through the mask every day. A country
may forget this history, but I cannot.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
We had the pleasure of actually meeting her when she
actually came in on the show and did an interview,
read it and my mother, Fletcher stopped her here.

Speaker 4 (27:37):
One hundred and eleven years old. Man, what a life like.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
And it's interesting to me when you have people who
lived through the history that we read about and we
talk about it. And that's why you got to take
advantage of having conversations with those elders while they here.

Speaker 6 (27:50):
Man.

Speaker 5 (27:51):
Absolutely, absolutely, and she was one of only two survivors
left now her friend and fellow survivor Leslie Benningfield Randall.

Speaker 7 (27:59):
She is the last last year on June.

Speaker 5 (28:02):
In June of twenty twenty four, the Oklahoma Supreme Court
they threw out their lawsuit, which was a major setback
in their one hundred year fight for reparations that basically
means that they're pushed through the justice system through the courts.

Speaker 7 (28:15):
Had reached a dead end.

Speaker 5 (28:17):
Their attorney, though, says she was still fighting even from
her hospital bed, tired but not ready to leave the
work unfinished. So we will continue to just wish them
well in their fight for justice, and as we move on,
returning to a very different fight happening inside the federal government.
So doge the Department of Government Efficiency. It has shut

(28:39):
down eight months early after laying off tens of thousands
of federal workers, and now some of those very jobs
that were cut they are being replaced by AI.

Speaker 3 (28:49):
Now.

Speaker 5 (28:49):
One of the agencies that was hit the hardest was
the IRS, after cutting more than twelve thousand employees this year,
from customer.

Speaker 7 (28:56):
Service to civil rights to compliance.

Speaker 5 (28:58):
The IRS is now rolling out salesforce powered AI tools
to pick up the work that people used to do.
Now these agents they will answer questions, sort through files,
and help move the cases along, but they can't make
final decisions or process returns on their own. But it
is a major shift that's sparking real concern and how
the agency is handling its now day to day operations.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
I don't want AI working at the IRS. I don't
need no room for error at the IRS. Okay, I
need actual humans in there that we can yell and scream.
I don't need no whole body playing with our money and.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
To just pick up the phone when you have a
question about your return or that you have a question
with about your money. So yeah, that we will see
what that looks like, especially when it gets closer to
tax season.

Speaker 7 (29:41):
That's going to be a real headache for so many people.
And another headache.

Speaker 5 (29:46):
Right So, if you're planning to ship anything next year,
holiday gifts, birthday packages, anything, the Postal Service is warning
that prices are going up. So for most packages, you're
looking at a bump of about five to eight percent.
That's basically a few extra dollars every time you mail
something that includes your everyday options like your Priority Mail,
your Priority Express mail. The cheaper, slower services will see

(30:08):
the biggest jump. One of the specialty international options, the
one that people used to send like books overseas, that's
going to go up about forty percent now. USPS says
it needs the extra revenue to upgrade its system and
to keep delivering mail.

Speaker 7 (30:22):
In packages six days a week.

Speaker 5 (30:24):
The new prices, though they still need approval from the
Postal Regulatory Commission, but if they are cleared, those new
prices will kick in January eighteenth, twenty twenty six. They
also want to stress that this does not affect the
price of a stamp. Regular mail will stay the same,
but shipping will cost more, but sending a letter will not.

Speaker 7 (30:44):
So everything is going up.

Speaker 5 (30:47):
And lastly, it is almost Black Friday and a lot
of shoppers they are trying to figure out what is
real and what is hype this year.

Speaker 7 (30:54):
So Black Friday, y'all, remember it used to be predictable.

Speaker 5 (30:57):
You woke up at three am, you stood in line,
you sprint it for your TV.

Speaker 7 (31:01):
But those days are now gone.

Speaker 5 (31:02):
You remember that we used to watch the videos online
of everybody pushing and shoving curt yep. Well, now the
sales starts so early that people a lot of companies
they are rolling out door busters before Halloween, and so
shoppers are confused. So all over social media people are
asking the same thing, Is this the real Black Friday.

Speaker 7 (31:23):
Or is this a warm up?

Speaker 5 (31:24):
And it's a fair question because every retailer is shouting
Black Friday weeks in advance, and it's getting hard to
tell if the sale is the real sale.

Speaker 7 (31:32):
So here's what analysts are saying.

Speaker 5 (31:33):
They're saying the best and the deepest cuts they usually
still show up the week into Black Friday through Cyber Monday,
so that would be this week. That's when those electronics,
those big ticket home items and holiday gifts will hit
their lowest prices.

Speaker 7 (31:47):
They say, though, if you do see.

Speaker 5 (31:48):
Something that you want and it's a genuinely good price,
you should probably grab it. But if you are chasing
those rock bottom prices, waiting until Black Friday Cyber Monday
stretch is usually your best bet. And they all will
suggest maybe getting a pricing tracking tool that will help
you keep track of all the deals to help you
find the best prices to save you a few dollars.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
All right, I should have went. I should have waited. Uh,
and just some shopping on Friday.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
You don't want to go out there. It'll be too
crazy on Friday, and you don't like people.

Speaker 3 (32:15):
You would go crazy.

Speaker 4 (32:16):
Yeah, yeah, that's never happened to me before.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
Man.

Speaker 4 (32:18):
I went to the Dick Sporting Goods yesterday.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
And usually I walked into a place and I know
exactly what I want, and I get it and I leave.
And I've been so heavy ordering stuff online lately that
I haven't been in the store in a while. When
I walked in Dick's Boarding goods, just just to go
buy some draws.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
But the underwear is nowhere near the sneakers, you see, true, nah,
because the sneakers is all the way in the back.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
And the only reason I know is I had to buy.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
And that's what John Underwear is right by fitting the
room too. And then when you're looking at the other underwear,
the wall is right there full of Asia Wilson sneakers
and I was like, oh, shoot, it was Asia Wilson
and Donovan Milchill Donovan Mitchell. Yeah, and I was like,
I didn't know. First of all, I didn't know Asia
had that many colorways. And then I want your color
we I went and bought two pairs because you know,
that's a home team.

Speaker 3 (32:54):
And only had one pair of Kobe's there beside ten.
When I went there the.

Speaker 4 (32:57):
Other day, I didn't see the Kobe's.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
I was looking for Jackson.

Speaker 4 (32:59):
But yeah, so that type.

Speaker 7 (33:01):
Of stuff doesn't go on Black Friday cell anyway.

Speaker 3 (33:03):
Right, so you probably you probably right.

Speaker 5 (33:06):
Yeah, they don't usually discount. There's the shoes and things
like that. So all right, y'all, well that is your
front page news. I'm me me Brown, follow me at

to Breakfast Local Morning, the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 6 (33:45):
Like first Soprano and the choir. So I got to
sit with the girls. Yeah, next I get to sit
with the girls of next year. But people would always
come to the record shop and go, now you sound like
a DJ. You ought to be he a DJ, And
it was in one air out the other man. I
wanted to be a Baptist minister. That was my first
goal in life. And but one day my mother had
a live broadcast. One of the local DJs, Al Perkins,

(34:08):
came in well set up his booth out front. They
had a portable booth with a young glass in case,
and did his show from there for three hours. And
so he invited me into the studio.

Speaker 3 (34:20):
To do specials.

Speaker 6 (34:22):
You know, you know, we got the Temptation's greatest hits
on sale for two ninety nine.

Speaker 3 (34:25):

Speaker 3 (34:30):
Hip phones on. Man, he's tamming to the music.

Speaker 6 (34:33):
Man.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
I was like, Man, I could do that. I could.

Speaker 6 (34:37):
That's what I want to do right there. I mean,
it's just just light. It was just no doubt that's
what I wanted to do. And within three months I
was on the air. I was fifteen years old, you know,
in Detroit. Detroit's fifth largest market in the country at
that time. So you know, I mean, what a blessing
to get a start that young. And I mean I
couldn't even do my whole show live. I was on

(34:59):
from eight to midnight, and law stated, I couldn't work
past ten thirty. So after school I have to go home,
I mean, go to the station, record my last hour
and a half, then go home, have dinner, do my homework,
and go back and go live from eight to ten thirty,
put the tape on and leave.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
What were you talking about at age fifteen in Detroit?
When this is when what Temptations and all love and singing.
What were you talking about at fifteen in Detroit?

Speaker 3 (35:26):
The Temptations, the Miracles, it's four tops, I mean.

Speaker 6 (35:32):
Nineteen sixty nine, fifteen Detroit six right, But you know
I would I've always loved music, so I would go
into a smoky set, right or I remember this happened
with Smokey and Stevie.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
I played four or five songs by them.

Speaker 6 (35:49):
They would call on the request line. They didn't even
have a hotline number, just call man. I was listening
to you, baby, you know, let's talk to Smokey, talk
to Stevie.

Speaker 3 (35:57):
Man. It was just it was magical Detroit at that time.

Speaker 4 (36:01):
Motown was right there.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
Yeah, right there. You were in the heart of it. It
was in the heart of it. And you pick the
records you play back then.

Speaker 6 (36:07):
I've always done that always, Well that was you know,
that was the norm back then. Of course, now you
know nobody gets that privilege. But my whole career I'm
proud of that. I always had total control of what
happened on my show.

Speaker 3 (36:21):
Man.

Speaker 6 (36:22):
I wouldn't have done it any other way, you know,
because you know, I'm not a bit It was never
a bit driven show.

Speaker 3 (36:28):
You know, it was for me, everything was It was.

Speaker 6 (36:31):
The music I was. That was the main focus for me.
So I had to have control of it or I
wouldn't do it.

Speaker 3 (36:38):
And how did you get to DC? Because most people
a lot of people thought you were from DC?

Speaker 6 (36:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (36:42):
No, how did you get from DC?

Speaker 2 (36:43):
So your radio and Detroit you'r fifteen, your radio career starts. Yeah,
how does this this young individual get out to Washington, DC?

Speaker 6 (36:50):
Yeah? Well I got to call one night on the
air on the request line, and this guy has sound
very official voice. Hello is this Donnie Simpson? I go, yeah,
this is Bob Hennerberry from NBC in New York, and
we'd like to talk to you about working at one
of our stations. At our station in Washington, I said,
come on, man, who the hell.

Speaker 3 (37:07):
Is this really?

Speaker 6 (37:10):
Because your boys would play tricks like that coin and
then they hear you get all official and then they go,
oh man, it's called man.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
What you're doing after show tonight? You don't?

Speaker 6 (37:18):
And uh, but it was real, and so I went
there to meet with him. At first I didn't want
to go because it was a disco station, and I said,
in no way I would do that. But then my
oldest brother, who's had a very smart business mind. I
always wish I had his business mind. But he said,
you always have to talk. Whatever they offer is you

(37:39):
just you have to listen.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
So I went.

Speaker 6 (37:41):
They picked me up, took me on an interview at
Arlington Cemetery. It's like, is this Washington, DC or not?
I mean, why is clandestine at the cemetery?

Speaker 3 (37:51):
It just was weird.

Speaker 6 (37:53):
But I ended up going because when I went there,
they were playing the Enchantment and some stuff other than
just this go and uh. But you know, I felt
like it was opportunity for me that it was NBC,
that the station I was at Detroit, we were their
biggest station in their chain, that you had opportunity for
growth there.

Speaker 3 (38:13):
And they were gonna make me rich.

Speaker 6 (38:14):
Man, I left Detroit making thirteen thousand and they were
paying me twenty seventy five.

Speaker 18 (38:19):
Baby, what.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
Body? But well, look, first car, first car I ever bought.

Speaker 6 (38:30):
It was in nineteen sixty four Ford fair Lane two
hundred and twenty five dollars. Man, I burned so much
oil mapple in the gas station, telling them fillip to
oil and check the gas. But I thought I was
rich when I moved there with that money, man, But
I was broke as hell, man, I mean very because

(38:51):
I didn't factor in cost of living from Detroit to
d C. It was like three times more. And I
lost my side hustle because.

Speaker 3 (38:59):
It wasn't popular.

Speaker 6 (39:00):
So you know, so I didn't you know, you're not
doing the conscience and all that stuff. I didn't think
about all that man. Man, it was tight for a minute.
And for me, Man, the moment that I remember most
from that is I had a set of pictures. Back then,
you had to get pictures developed, and it was twenty
six dollars man, and I couldn't afford to get them
out of the shop. And he kept sending me notices. Man,

(39:21):
it was the last pictures of my grandfather, man, and
that you know, we're gonna destroy them. We got three months,
finally got enough money. Man, it was too late, You're gone.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
Wow. You know.

Speaker 6 (39:34):
So that was always a motivating factor for me. It
still is, man, that I don't ever want to be
in that position again, you know, But it was.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
That kind of tight for me. I'm sorry, go ahead,
yeah no, I said four minutes.

Speaker 6 (39:44):
But you know that was seventy seven when I moved
to DC, and by night the end of seventy nine,
I started, things just started to really, really really pop
for me.

Speaker 2 (39:53):
All Right, we got one with Donnie Simpson when we
come back, don't move.

Speaker 3 (39:56):
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybod hilarious, charlamage guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (40:02):
I was still kicking it with Donnie Simpson, of course
you know him from his own radio show in DC
and Detroit.

Speaker 3 (40:07):
And of course video soul, Lauren.

Speaker 20 (40:09):
When you were in it and you were doing what
you were doing with video, so did you feel you
felt that all the time at the support from your people.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
Oh, without doubt. Well before well how did you get
to video? So break that down before you jump.

Speaker 6 (40:20):
Into Okay, Well, I was doing radio in Detroit in DC.
Wk YS was my station at that time. It was
owned by NBC. They're trying to sweeten the pot for me,
so they started they gave me television locally there. I
did backup sports. I was a sportscaster for George Michael.

(40:40):
I don't know if y'all remember him, but George Michael
did the George Michael Sports Machine, which is people considered
the precursor to ESPN, and so I was George's backup
for about three years, and but Bob Johnson had seen
me doing TV. He knew, of course, of my music
interests and love and they were starting up this show
called Video Soul, and he wanted to know if I.

(41:02):
He called and wanted to know if I would be
interested in doing it, And at first I wasn't well
because I've always felt that I was always very careful
about what I got involved in because I only have
one thing to sell, this image. I can't give you
twenty rebounds a night, you know, It's just image, and

(41:25):
so you have to be very protective of that. And
I only got involved in things that were top shelf
be et in its infancy, wasn't a very pretty big no.

Speaker 3 (41:36):
It wasn't. It looked like access to public access TV,
you know. So after two days of thinking about it,
it came down to this for me.

Speaker 6 (41:43):
That this is our first black television network.

Speaker 3 (41:48):
If you have something to offer it, you gotta do it.
Let's go.

Speaker 6 (41:53):
And I was so glad I did, man, you know,
I mean, I had no idea that thing would go
as far as it did.

Speaker 3 (42:00):
Only thought would.

Speaker 6 (42:01):
Last eight or nine months because we didn't have the
titles for videos that the white artists had. We had
like twenty videos. You know, record companies didn't give black
artists budgets like that, and so but man, that thing
just blew up.

Speaker 5 (42:20):
Man.

Speaker 3 (42:20):
We went from one of that.

Speaker 6 (42:21):
We were in one and a half million homes when
I first joined it, and when I left it was
numbers like forty forty million, you know, and you know,
and then for me, it gave me. You know, it
puts you in every nook and cranny of this country.

Speaker 3 (42:36):
Man.

Speaker 6 (42:37):
Just you know, I'm just grateful for that. I'm just
so glad that I did that.

Speaker 20 (42:41):
Did you feel the support at first? And the reason
why I with from your people for real? Because from
the outside looking in, it does feel like that. But
I know a lot of times people celebrate people and
things after the fact, and being here at the Breakfast
Club and coming from a non black outlet, I always
say that I feel like people don't appreciate the Breakfast
Club the way that they should right now.

Speaker 16 (42:59):
And it's unfortunate.

Speaker 20 (43:00):
See because you know, you've lived this in real time
and you had that support. I just think that we
I mean, we do a lot, but I think it
would be the conversation around breakfast club amongst us, I
just feel like should be different.

Speaker 16 (43:10):
Sometimes I think breakfast club gets the flowers.

Speaker 20 (43:13):
But I think on the other hand, I don't think
people understand what's happening as it's happening.

Speaker 3 (43:16):
Yeah, I hate this coming.

Speaker 4 (43:18):
I mean, you got you got both.

Speaker 3 (43:21):
Support, you have people that that's something negative to say.
That's just like I just.

Speaker 20 (43:24):
Wonder what it felt like to have the support and
like how that helped you to further what you were doing.

Speaker 16 (43:29):
Just show why.

Speaker 4 (43:31):
Out his knocking knocking down all these women listening to all.

Speaker 21 (43:34):
These you know, married back in the day, man, bro,
I was old early.

Speaker 6 (43:51):
I'm telling you seriously, because we were married, me and
my wife.

Speaker 3 (43:54):
Man, we were high school sweethearts.

Speaker 6 (43:57):
Yeah, married at nineteen child one year or two days later,
you know. Got I mean like I had never even
lived a college life, the campus life, oh wow, you know.
I mean I went to school, but man, I had
a house with a wife and kid at home, you know,
so I never So that's why I was old early. Man.

Speaker 22 (44:16):
But Jimmy Javan Terry Lewis, we always they always say
this that that had everything to do with my success
because you had your base set so early, man, So
we're still got you know, we're twenty eight, not twenty nine,
thirty years old, still trying to look for what you got.

Speaker 6 (44:32):
You know, you got it, man, You've had it for
ten years at that point, you know. So yeah, So
it was always solid like that for me. But the
support of the people of Man. People have always given
me mad love. I'm telling you, that's all I've ever known.
And it's just the most consistent thing that I've ever
experienced in life.

Speaker 3 (44:52):
Man. Just the but what my fan base gives me,
it's just amazing.

Speaker 6 (44:57):
Man.

Speaker 16 (44:59):
Is that why still so passionate about radio today?

Speaker 20 (45:02):
Yeah, casting and people hearing your voice because you've always
been connected to.

Speaker 6 (45:06):
The people, always, always, you know, and it reminds me.
I said this at Frankie's funeral, frank Beverly's funeral, that
because you know how people loved him. I said, you
don't get love like that unless you give love like that.
You got to give it first, and that's why it guess,
and I think that's what people feel for me. You know,
I love people, man, I just I love people.

Speaker 5 (45:28):
Man.

Speaker 3 (45:28):
They've just been good to me. You know, it really happened.
You give you a platform that became essential to black culture. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Well, they're a moment on video sol where you felt like,
this isn't just entertainment. We're documenting our culture and real.

Speaker 21 (45:41):
No.

Speaker 3 (45:42):
Not when I was doing it, man.

Speaker 6 (45:44):
You know, it's like to me, I think that you know,
whatever it is that you do, you're just doing it.

Speaker 3 (45:52):
When you're doing it.

Speaker 6 (45:53):
It's it's a line in Elton Johnson Rocket Man that
I love so much when he says in all the Science,
I don't understand.

Speaker 3 (46:00):
It is just my job, five days a week a
rocket man. You know.

Speaker 6 (46:04):
It's like I'm an astronaut. People look like, wow, this
is an ast man, and that's just what I do. Man,
That's just my job man.

Speaker 3 (46:12):
You know.

Speaker 6 (46:13):
And and that's why I feel like when you're doing
what you do, you know now all these years later,
you look back because people make you look back and
see the importance of it, and uh, it's it's it's
it's mind blowing because I know I didn't have those
thoughts when I was doing.

Speaker 3 (46:29):
It, man.

Speaker 9 (46:29):
I was just.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
Between this generation now, in perid generation, we watched y'all
make history. Y'all didn't know y'all would making history so
now we understand we're in history in time.

Speaker 3 (46:40):
Yeah, and y'all are man.

Speaker 6 (46:41):
I mean what y'all doing is amazing, man, you know,
I mean the platform that you have, the reach that
you have. You know, I never had that in radio
and my show was always local. It did come to
me once about syndicating it. But the problem for me was, well,
go back to music. I said, well, what happens if

(47:02):
I'm on this particular station. I know they're all slows,
you know, adult contemporaries. Just you know it's Kim and
you know what happens when I play Tupac? Well, we
covered a Tupac song. You can talk about Tupac because
everybody knows them, but we'll cover that with a Luther song. See,
you have no interest in that. You know, it's the

(47:25):
whole experience or it's nothing.

Speaker 3 (47:27):
That's why does what she does did?

Speaker 2 (47:28):
It doesn't change for nobody doesn't care what market it is,
what area she's whatever.

Speaker 3 (47:32):
That what you get on that breakroad club is what
you're getting.

Speaker 6 (47:34):
I love that, man, That's where it should be. You know,
you want the whole experience. This is you know what
you're presenting, this is who you are. I can't do
a moderated version of me, you know, no, you know.
And then plus for me, I felt like the only
reason to do it was some money. I was okay,
you know, well two reasons, money and then for to

(47:58):
further your brand. Know And it's like, man b e
T gave me that in the way radio could never
give it to me. You know, you put me in
every nook and cranny in this country. I don't need
it for that. I just I'm not going to compromise
on me on who I am.

Speaker 2 (48:14):
We got by with Donnie Simpson. When we come back,
it's the Breakfast Club, Good morning boring. Everybody's the ej
Envy just hilarious, charlamage, the guy we are the Breakfast
Club is still kicking it with the og the legend
icon Donnie Simpson, charlam.

Speaker 1 (48:26):
How do you want your legacy taught to the next
generation of host broadcast just black creatives.

Speaker 4 (48:32):
What's the headline of Donnie Simpson's store?

Speaker 6 (48:35):
He did him? You know, he did his thing. You
should do yours, you know, just uh never tried to
be anybody else. I never I've never met the man
I wanted to be, you know, never have man, you know,
and I've met some great people, from Bob Johnson to
Michael Jordan. I never wanted to be any of them.

(48:58):
I'm the only person I ever want want it to be.

Speaker 3 (49:01):
You know. I remember this guy was playing golf one day.

Speaker 6 (49:05):
I was with this older guy and these kids were
in the playground next to the golf course and I
hit my ball over there, and so I'm over there
and it's this kid, it's about six seven years old,
and he says, Hi.

Speaker 3 (49:17):
Mister, I know you wish you were Tiger Woods. I said, no,
I like who I am.

Speaker 6 (49:23):
And the guy I was playing with said, that is
just the greatest response I've ever heard of anything.

Speaker 3 (49:30):
I mean, without hesitation, No, I like who I am.
You know I don't be Tiger.

Speaker 6 (49:34):
You know, his money, his golf game, me whatever, Yeah,
I love it, hit ball like him. But you know,
I just, uh, I'm happy with who I am.

Speaker 3 (49:43):
You know, I am. I always have been. You know,
I'm not perfect.

Speaker 6 (49:48):
We all have faults, you know, but uh, you know,
even the bad things that have you know, there's stuff
in my closet, man, whatever it is, all of it
has made me who I I am. And I like
who I am because even those bad things man, that
you are tests you know, to correct you and to
make you you know who God wants you to be,

(50:11):
you know, and so you know, so I like who
I am.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
Man.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
What do you tell the next generation of broadcasters, the
one that's waking up right now listening to this, to
say I want to.

Speaker 3 (50:21):
Do this, that if this is what you want to do.

Speaker 6 (50:23):
First of all, just to know that it's possible, you
know that anything can happen, that it's not some pipe dream,
that it's real, you know, like I used to take
my kids with me to everything.

Speaker 3 (50:36):
Man, my kid's been to Neverland Ranch.

Speaker 6 (50:39):
You know, they knew Michael and Janet and Prince, everybody,
you know. And it was for two reasons. It was
by design. One was that if you meet Michael, then
you know that he's human. Two is that if you
know one, then.

Speaker 3 (50:56):
You must know that you could do that too. It's
not magic, it's not you.

Speaker 6 (51:00):
Know, whatever it is. I don't care who it is,
it's real. I would say that the kids when I
spoken to schools that you know that parents tell you something. Well,
let's you know, I want to be an actor. I
want to be a basketball player.

Speaker 3 (51:11):
You know, that's such a folly, somebody's gonna do it.

Speaker 6 (51:16):
There will be the next Denzel Washington, there will be
the next Michael Jordan. It may as well be you.

Speaker 3 (51:23):
Why not.

Speaker 6 (51:24):
Why not dream big, That's what I would say to them,
Just dream big man.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
Just don't be afraid of big man. I love people
with big eyes. Man. You know, don't be afraid of
big man.

Speaker 6 (51:35):
Whatever that big is to you. And it doesn't necessarily
mean money. Not everybody keep score like that. You know,
whatever it is, man. So if this is what you
want to do, then you can go after it. Be relentless,
be great, and be you love it.

Speaker 2 (51:49):
Before we close out. You got to tell us a
Michael story before you, before you leave it.

Speaker 3 (51:53):
Michael, I love you. Just can't say I took the
kids never Land. It was on the ride.

Speaker 4 (52:09):
Coming out.

Speaker 1 (52:10):
And speaking of celebrity, that's another person we be trying
to say. Stop saying somebody is the new Michael Jackson.
There is no such.

Speaker 3 (52:17):
Number one man, that's right, That dude man.

Speaker 6 (52:19):
When I first met him, he was God. I was sixteen,
so Michael would have been fourteen, I think. I think
that's right, or thirteen or something like that. First time
I met him.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
But uh, man, you know, Michael was just He's just
a special dude.

Speaker 19 (52:32):
Man.

Speaker 3 (52:33):
He was.

Speaker 6 (52:33):
Uh the first time I went to the house, this
was before you o never Land. This was the haven
Hurst House, man, I couldn't believe they had a little
cookout for me there, right, And uh so when I
got there, Man, all these people standing out across the street,
I thought it was a bus stop.

Speaker 3 (52:51):
You're just fans.

Speaker 6 (52:52):
Wow, it's like that twenty four to seven man, twenty
four to seven man people out there.

Speaker 3 (52:58):
It was just it's just crazy.

Speaker 6 (53:00):
But Michael, Michael was very, very cool as long as
this small group, you know, if it gets more than
five six seven people, he kind of tightens up. You know,
he would just be a little uncomfortable in that. But
you know, just me and him or a couple of people, he's,
you know, kick it. Just a regular dude, man, you know,
but just brilliant man. And to me, I look at

(53:23):
people like him and Eddie and you don't get to
that level of success without being smart.

Speaker 3 (53:32):
You know. That ain't no accident. That's not just talent.
This is just brains.

Speaker 6 (53:36):
Man.

Speaker 3 (53:37):
Michael was just the dude, was brilliant. I knew a
guy who used to do lighting for him, and he
told me.

Speaker 6 (53:42):
He said, one night Michael came to him and said,
to look, when you know we get to this point
in this song, I want you to hit me with
this particular light.

Speaker 3 (53:48):
Told him what light, which light to hit.

Speaker 6 (53:49):
And the angle to hit him from, and he said,
I'm just sitting there, man. I'm like, man, dude, I've
been doing this for thirty years.

Speaker 3 (53:55):
Man told me what to do, he said, But I
did it because he's paying me, you know, he said.

Speaker 6 (54:00):
But they created the exact effect that Michael said that
it would, he said, And then I realized he's been
doing this for thirty years too, Michael.

Speaker 3 (54:07):
He was like, like Jimmy jam and Terry Lewis told
me Prince was.

Speaker 4 (54:12):
That.

Speaker 6 (54:12):
Jimmy says, Man thought I was a great piano player.
I could play. Prince would come in and show me
how to play my instrument. So I don't care who
you were he could, I'll play you on your instrument.

Speaker 3 (54:26):
That's Michael Jackson to me.

Speaker 6 (54:27):
Man, you know, he can look at the reverence which
all the dancers looked at him, and this is it.

Speaker 4 (54:35):
I mean, they're just freaking.

Speaker 3 (54:37):
These are dancers, professional dancers.

Speaker 6 (54:39):
When Michael does it, it's just and on top of
that he's a singer and a writer and perform and
all that, but he can do that part two better
than anybody.

Speaker 3 (54:48):
Man.

Speaker 16 (54:49):
You know, that's just did he have a deep voice
for real?

Speaker 3 (54:52):
That yeah? Man, he talked like Berry right.

Speaker 6 (54:54):
No, no, no, no, no no.

Speaker 3 (54:57):
It was like I remember one day he had a
party here in New York.

Speaker 6 (55:01):
As a matter of fact, he had just done I
think a show for the UNCF and just a little
small party, and so we went and it couldn't have
been but twenty people. There's me and my wife, Eliza
Manelli was there, Cindy Lauper, she had just happened with
girls just want to have fun, Jimmy and Terry, and
just a few more people. But Michael was upstairs. It

(55:23):
was a two story townhouse in the hotel. And so
finally Michael comes down after about forty five minutes and
he comes in and he says he's with his bodyguard,
Chucky the Beasts, and that was his name, d ib
I s But he looked like the Beasts because he's
like six foot.

Speaker 3 (55:38):
Ain't always were top hat.

Speaker 6 (55:39):
If you remember that guy, it's very imposing, and Michael walks.

Speaker 3 (55:42):
Into the room. He goes. He says, God, it's so
bright in here. Chucky's standing here.

Speaker 23 (55:47):
He posed Chucky next to a lamp, the block out
the light in the room. I was like, damn, this
is crazy. This is crazy, man, a human light sheet.

Speaker 3 (55:58):
Now I've seen it all man, don and we appreciate you. Man.

It's DJ Envy, just hilarious. Charlamagne the guy. We are
the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren.

Speaker 14 (56:31):
Lauren, you're coming a straight fast man.

Speaker 3 (56:34):
She gets them. Somebody that knows somebody detail.

Speaker 16 (56:38):
I'm a home girl that knows a little bit about everything.

Speaker 4 (56:41):
She'd be having the latest on you, the.

Speaker 3 (56:44):
Latest with Lauren la Rosa.

Speaker 1 (56:46):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details, sometimes you
have a little bit of everything.

Speaker 3 (56:49):
It's the leader on the Breakfast Club all right.

Speaker 2 (56:54):
Now, Lauren is on vacation, she's on her birthday vacation,
so she's been sending me the stories and we're gonna
start of from Mike Apps.

Speaker 3 (57:00):
If you follow comedian Mike Epps.

Speaker 2 (57:02):
Yesterday he apologized to his whole apology on his Instagram yesterday. Well, first,
he was on the Jim Jones podcast about a week
ago talking about people that just came home and how
we celebrate people that just came home.

Speaker 10 (57:14):
So for black men, all these gangsters running around talking
the streets, straight trauma with through a lot, been through hell,
you get them. The cry be on the side of
the building crying. They hard out for our young for
our youth, we have to start targeting and gearing celebrating
those journeys. Those are the wrong journeys to celebrate young men.

(57:37):
There's no reward for coming home after thirty years. You
don't get no care package. You are failure. Get your
ass out here and help these kids. Hey that back forward.
You see what I'm saying that's the reward.

Speaker 1 (57:50):
So what do you say wrong? I wouldn't say that
they're a failure. But I think when it comes to
celebrating people who come home from jail, it depends what
they were in prison for. You know what I'm saying,
if you were a political prisoner. Yeah, but he's not
wrong about celebrating the people who come home from prison.
I wouldn't call him a failure. I would just say
that they made poor choices and they need to go
out there and teach the next generation how not to

(58:10):
make those poor choices.

Speaker 2 (58:12):
Well, he apologized for saying that yesterday, and this is
what he said during this suppos Right, what's up.

Speaker 10 (58:16):
Y'all, you man, Mike kefs Man, I just want to
get on here and clarify and clear a few things up.
Number one about the brothers coming home from prison being celebrated.
I've always been a part of reform. I got brothers
right now from my hometown that I'm trying to help
come home to been in prison forever. What I was
trying to say is we don't want to send kids

(58:36):
mixed messages about coming home from prison being celebrated, you know,
feeling like you got to go to prison to do
thirty forty years to be celebrated. I think you guys
misunderstood that. I wasn't saying that it was wrong to
be celebrated. But we don't want to send a message
to the kids saying prison is great, that you want
to go home, go do thirty years and come home.

Speaker 3 (58:58):
You know, I don't think that's cool.

Speaker 10 (59:00):
Oh I'm sorry if anybody took it the wrong way
and got offended. I love my brothers. I've been incarcerated myself.
I understand what that he is. But I might have
said it the wrong way.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
But I mean, well, I'm all for reform, and I
completely understand what Mike Evs is saying.

Speaker 4 (59:15):
I completely understand what he's saying.

Speaker 1 (59:17):
If you have a loved one that went to jail
for twenty thirty years and you're happy that that person
is home, yes, but that is nothing to be celebrated
by the masses.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
Right, you're happy that they come home, And I get
what he's saying.

Speaker 3 (59:27):
We should celebrate other things as well.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
We should celebrate when people graduate college, when they you know,
become an attorney, or when they grad med school, whatever
that means. You should celebrate. Yes, absolutely.

Speaker 3 (59:38):
But then he was on the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (59:39):
I don't know if you remember, but he was talking
about food stamps and the fact that he didn't love
the fact that people were on food stamps.

Speaker 10 (59:45):
I'm actually glad they cutting some of these off food
stamps because some of us need to not be on
food stamps, because it's a trickle down the fit. You
get the food stamps, then you go buy the food
that give you cancer. Then you eat the food to
give you cancer. Then you're sad you walking around here
upset your diet. Now I'm gonna tell you ant Scott

(01:00:06):
true your diet then sent a lot into prison.

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
They're gonna take all this and put it off O News.

Speaker 4 (01:00:12):
Yeah, and it's gonna.

Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
Say Mike says, you just don't need to be on
food you think, and you're gonna go viral and they
gonna call you maga.

Speaker 3 (01:00:20):
Makee you finishing them?

Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
Well, Well, that was that was conflating two different things.
Though He's right about the diet part. Right, when you
eat bad foods, you know, it leads all types of
other things. But I have no problem with people receiving food.

Speaker 2 (01:00:34):
That Well, he apologized for saying that you know, people
might be on food stamps.

Speaker 10 (01:00:39):
And about the food stamp thing, the fool stamp thing
was misunderstood too. What I was saying is is that
we need to break the cycle of being on food stamps.
There's three generations of people that have been on fool stamps,
a grandmother, mother, and daughter.

Speaker 3 (01:00:55):
That's crazy.

Speaker 10 (01:00:56):
We gotta do better, we gotta We can't think that
we need assist them. I know there's some people out
there that need assistance that's well fined and understood. But
there's people out there taking advantage of the system that's
not good. So just want to apologize if I offended anybody.
You know, I love y'all man, and keep on doing
the right thing.

Speaker 3 (01:01:16):
Peace. Oh, you got to break the cycle of poverty.

Speaker 1 (01:01:18):
You gotta break the cycle of you know, people not
having financial resources.

Speaker 3 (01:01:23):
Right, that's the conversation, that's right.

Speaker 2 (01:01:25):
And lastly, Ice Tea, you know, his role on SVU
was cut back a little bit, and he explains why
you won't see him on SVU as much.

Speaker 3 (01:01:33):
It's just basically business.

Speaker 24 (01:01:35):
They brought Kelly back and at the end of the day,
they couldn't really.

Speaker 4 (01:01:39):
Keep both of us on full time.

Speaker 24 (01:01:41):
Far as budget wise, So they said, okay, what Ice,
what have you come in and out this year? And
that way we could bring everybody wanted Kelly back, and
we've got new cops and stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (01:01:52):
But I'm not.

Speaker 24 (01:01:53):
Leaving the show. I'm more concerned with throwing the season
twenty eight. So this year they said, Ice, we're gonna
work you a little less. Everything was cool with me.
I understood. I said that you're getting rid of me.
They said, no way, we can't imagine Law and Order
without you. I've been on this show for twenty seven years.
I'm not gonna say nothing negative about that show. They've
taken care of me for so long, so I just

(01:02:14):
want to get to season twenty eight. What has happened, though,
is given me more time. So I got a chance
to do other projects, other things. I've worked on music,
So don't worry about me. Worry about earthquakes. I'll be okay.

Speaker 4 (01:02:26):
So you know I'm a hustler. You give me some
free time, I find a free dime.

Speaker 3 (01:02:29):
You understand what I'm saying. Twenty seven years is crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:02:33):
Well, you know what he said?

Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
That was so ill and all of that, though, he said,
I ain't gonna never say nothing bad about them. Been
here for twenty seven years, they treated me great. Yeah, absolutely,
that's real.

Speaker 3 (01:02:42):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (01:02:43):
You've been here to place for twenty seven years, made
hundreds of millions of dollars, and you're.

Speaker 4 (01:02:48):
Gonna have something negative to.

Speaker 3 (01:02:49):
Say, nothing at all.

Speaker 4 (01:02:49):
I'm good.

Speaker 3 (01:02:50):
All right.

Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
Well that's the latest with Lauren, and Lauren wanted me
to say, let captain save a skin tone. No that

Speaker 4 (01:03:59):
He some donkey to day is just said himself.

Speaker 3 (01:04:12):
Oh man, Charlamagne, who are you giving jonre to?

Speaker 4 (01:04:14):
Did your name well?

Speaker 3 (01:04:16):
Rob?

Speaker 4 (01:04:16):
For nine?

Speaker 1 (01:04:17):
Donkey to Day for Tuesday November twenty fifth, damn thanks
giving it a couple of days?

Speaker 3 (01:04:21):
Huh?

Speaker 1 (01:04:21):
Tuesday twenty fifth Donkey Day for Tuesday twenty fifth goes
to a thirty year old Iowa man named the non Ari.
Let me start off by telling you all that the
non has been charged with two counts of indecent exposure.

Speaker 3 (01:04:34):
Okay, what is in decent exposure? And decent exposure is.

Speaker 1 (01:04:37):
A deliberate act of exposing one's genitals in a public
place that is likely to cause offense, our alarm to uss.
You can't be pulling out your pep and public people. Okay,
you can't pull out your wienie at Walgreens. Your Pecca
can't be pulled out in the Piglo Wiggly. Do not
pull your Johnson out in the Jersey mics. It's a
damn shame I have to be the one to tell

(01:04:57):
you these things. But apparently that is we live in Okay.
According to a criminal complaint, the Noon, who is the
big ass age of thirty thirty years old? Okay, thirty
Steph Curry's number. That is not a little number. He
should know better, but apparently he does it. According to
this criminal complaint, drivers saw Denon standing at the back
of his car as he exposed his genitals the oncoming drivers. Okay,

(01:05:21):
this man, the Noon, was shifting gears and he wasn't
even in a car.

Speaker 4 (01:05:25):
I bet you can't wait to know what highway he.

Speaker 1 (01:05:27):
Was on right invY Nope, huh for two days in
a row on two different interstates. The first incident, he
was out there at seven thirty a m. Morning shift
on I eighty near Oxford in Iowa.

Speaker 3 (01:05:39):
The second incident was reported around three thirty.

Speaker 1 (01:05:41):
Pm after known shift on Interstate three eighty near North Liberty, unseething.
The trials' snake in traffic is insanity, okay, but that's
the world we live in, all right. Now, what concerns
me about this situation? As this young man told sheriff's
deputies that he was fulfilling an excitement that was currently
missing in his blah life.

Speaker 4 (01:06:02):
Those are his words.

Speaker 1 (01:06:04):
He said he was fulfilling an excitement that was currently
missing in his bla life. So you needed excitement in
your life, so you decided to present the meat stick
on the interstate. You needed excitement in your life, so
you decided to whip out the one eyed monster in traffic.
All right, guys, it's time to decriminalize sex work, all right,

(01:06:25):
make prostitution legal. This man was simply feeling frisky. He
was a little hot and bothered. He could use a
hug that turns into sex. Right now, What do you
mean you needed excitement in your life?

Speaker 4 (01:06:35):
Young man? By excitement, you mean you needed change.

Speaker 1 (01:06:40):
He wanted cheeks, he wanted that penis snuggie, that bearded clam,
that baby cannon. Listen, young men, you full of testosterone,
find a young woman to call your wife and enjoy life,
all right. Don't tell me you needed excitement when people
are looking for excitement. Okay, they change environments, all right.
That's what normal people do when they looking for excitement.

(01:07:02):
They just go change environments. Work from a new spot
each week, go on a microadventure, take different routes the
familiar places. Okay, add a little color to your home environment.
That's what you do when you're looking for excitement. When
you Horney though, you want that meat muffin. That's what
Denon wanted. Sexes ex all right, talking about he needed excitement. No,

(01:07:23):
you need a girlfriend, all right. People who want excitement
set challenges every month. They go do some long distance running,
a thirty day boxing challenge, ad spontaneous adventions.

Speaker 4 (01:07:35):
To your calendar.

Speaker 1 (01:07:35):
Go to a new restaurant, okay, a random comedy show.
There's a lot of ways to bring excitement to a
black life. But no, no, no, Denon, you are not
being honest with yourself. You were horneed, okay, a growing gobbling,
a lust lizard. All right, that was you, Denon. And
if you were ever wondering what purpose of p did

(01:07:58):
he freak? All served no further than sir Horny A
lot the non awry. Please give this young man the
sweet sounds of the hamiltones.

Speaker 14 (01:08:07):
Oh no, you are the dogge.

Speaker 3 (01:08:11):
Of the day, the dog all the day. Ye I'm
gonna be over there texting ferociously.

Speaker 1 (01:08:26):
I am not you abitiously moving your thumbs launching the
non awry.

Speaker 3 (01:08:33):
Lauren is actually from the beach and that's who was
texting me.

Speaker 4 (01:08:37):
Hell was Laura texted you from the beach from for.

Speaker 3 (01:08:39):
This next topic right here? Thank you for that donkey today.

Speaker 4 (01:08:41):
She sent me a bunch of middle fingers too.

Speaker 3 (01:08:43):
See she's texting you too. Okay, okay, okay, you funny today?

Speaker 4 (01:08:46):
No limbs was good?

Speaker 2 (01:08:49):
Okay, all right, Well, thank you for that donkey today.
So what Laura would just texting me? She was saying
that Martha Stewart was recently on The Today Show and
she was talking about Thanksgiving and she started an argument
yesterday on social media about the time that dinner should
be served.

Speaker 3 (01:09:04):
Let's listen.

Speaker 16 (01:09:05):
Okay, next EPISODF. You were Jane from New Hampshire. She
has a question that a lot of time aren't.

Speaker 17 (01:09:10):
What is the best time to serve Thanksgiving dinner?

Speaker 3 (01:09:13):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (01:09:13):
I think it should be around two o'clock in the afternoon.
People are hungry and they're starting to circle the kitchen.
You know, if you have a bunch of guests and
you don't want to wait till nighttime, you can eat
and then watch the big games, you know, and then
have more drinks and have fun.

Speaker 3 (01:09:31):
Love that at each assert leader, why always saw hungry
on thingsgiving?

Speaker 1 (01:09:35):
Like like any other day, you know, you have your
breakfast and you might have luncheon, then you have dinner
at regular times.

Speaker 3 (01:09:41):
But how come on Thanksgiving you just be hungry so.

Speaker 2 (01:09:43):
Early because it's all types of food you smell of,
fol It's just not regular, fool. But I'm not mad
at the two o'clock. I'm gonna tell you why. When
I used to go to things giving a grandma's house,
right then, it was about five o'clock, right, and the
whole family would have to drive there from different places
of the country to get to grandma's house. So we
have dinner at five. But when I started doing things
giving at my house, I did it at two o'clock,

(01:10:05):
really because I get tired early. So after two o'clock,
you have breakfast and you can sit back, you play spade,
you watch the football game, you.

Speaker 3 (01:10:12):
Can relax, you can go back for more, or you
can pass it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:15):
And you don't want people in your house all times
at night. You know what I'm saying exactly, because by
the time the first game over all, y'all.

Speaker 3 (01:10:21):
Y'all see how I'm gonna say. Man, I'm gonna say game.

Speaker 1 (01:10:23):
Come on, first game, Come on, well, I say, the
afternoon game, the afternoon game, come on like four, four thirty.

Speaker 3 (01:10:28):
After the afternoon game, y'all ain't staying for the late.

Speaker 2 (01:10:30):
Seven o'clock, eight o'clock. It's time tonight, y'all get home safe.
Five o'clock is late because that means that five were
starting to eat. That that means you're gonna get deserved
about eight nine. Then you're gonna want to talk. And
then there's always the family member that's drinking.

Speaker 3 (01:10:47):
And you're gonna get high. But that's gonna be constant
throughout the.

Speaker 2 (01:10:49):
Day' that's through the day, and then you gotta clean up.
That means y'all not leaving to eleven twelve.

Speaker 4 (01:10:55):
Got time?

Speaker 1 (01:10:56):
Yeah, two three o'clock is a good time. Early afternoon,
early after noon. That's early after that's mid afternoon. What
is mid afternoon early afternoon is like twelve mid three o'clock.

numbers you can miss. I asked the question earlier. I
was like, damn, why you beat so hungry on Thanksgiving?
Slut to the homie Miko grins. Miko said, most people
don't cook the night before, so you wake up hungry
and no breakfast easy, so about one pm people start
getting dizzy. I don't move like that personally. I'm gonna
wake up and keep my saying routine. I'm gonna eat
my two hal boiled egg and my goddamn oat meal

(01:12:37):
in the morning, and you know, because I need those
different meals, you know, to burn fat so by the
time things giving come out. And plus you don't want
to o d on Thanksgiving dinner either.

whatever it may be, to make sure what it used
to be, walking the doors outdoors, I'm like, who the
hell is outdoors, like cleaning up the outside when people
pulling it looks nice and everything. So that's that's usually
what I do.

Speaker 1 (01:13:11):

any of those moments. But I'm gonna tell you all something, man.
I was born in nineteen hundred and seventy eight, at

That's a great time. And then you know, I don't
know if people will realize that. You know, remember they
call it supper, right supper. Our dinner is the evening meal.

Speaker 4 (01:25:41):
Clearly okay. If you out the country with somebody.

Speaker 19 (01:25:44):

Speaker 3 (01:25:47):
Good I love it.

Speaker 4 (01:25:48):
If you if you out the.

Speaker 1 (01:25:49):
Country with somebody, shouldn't you be focused on who you
out the country with.

Speaker 4 (01:25:52):
Having a good time?

Speaker 3 (01:25:53):
Why are you putting her on blessed about who she
and where is she at and what she say where
she at? Just I mean, it's obviously out the country
she posted by it.

Speaker 18 (01:26:00):
Okay, but clearly she bought though anyways held in her company.

Speaker 2 (01:26:03):
Now Chauncey Phillips was he played not guilty on Monday,
the charges that he came up off and rigged the
poker games, taking millions of dollars from friends, people in
the industry, and more. His bond was set for five
million dollars, and Chauncey had put up his Corrorado home
as Colorado home as collateral. So he's saying not guilty.

Speaker 3 (01:26:22):
Damn, I have a big bond.

Speaker 4 (01:26:24):
Faith in the Billups.

Speaker 1 (01:26:26):
That's because your last name is the Billups. Yes, but
you don't know if that man guilty or not, so
you should relax. Yeah, that's a big bond. I mean,
he had to put up a half a million. But
they know he got it too though, so that's probably
why he made the bond.

Speaker 2 (01:26:37):
He put up the crib. Yeah, he had to put
up the crib. So if put up the crib, I
don't think I put the money, just put up his
scripts collateral. That's that's still a lot, though, it is.
I mean for the bond to be.

Speaker 1 (01:26:44):
Five million, ten percent is a half million dollars for
even you'd have to put up your house.

Speaker 3 (01:26:48):
That's a you know, that's not no play play bond,
all right, well also Larry Ellison.

Speaker 2 (01:26:53):
Uh, they're saying that his family is bidding to buy
the license of Warner Brothers and Discovery, so that means
that he will possibly have the Rush Hour movie and
the Rush Hour franchise.

Speaker 3 (01:27:04):
And Donald Trump spoke about it.

Speaker 2 (01:27:06):
He said he's pushing for Homie Larry Ellison to bring
back the Rush Hour franchise, and he wants to bring
it back with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. I don't
know why this is a story, but that's what Donald
Trump wants. He wants to see Rush Out. Maybe that's
his favorite movie. I don't know, Donald Trump, President Trump.
There's so many other things that you could be doing.
There's so many other things that you could be focused on. Okay,
I don't give a.

Speaker 1 (01:27:22):
Damn about what he takes in regards to a Rush
Out of four?

Speaker 3 (01:27:26):
Would he be this, like, what's his involvement? Why does
he want that? Would Jackie Chan get deported in rush
all four?

Speaker 4 (01:27:31):
Trump administration?

Speaker 3 (01:27:33):
Maybe that's what he wants. Maybe that's what he wants
to do. He comes down. Got time for that relaxed
okay message, that's all we got. That's all Laura said.

Speaker 1 (01:27:44):
I want to know who was high and hungary and
came up with that dance. Though, what's the name of
the dance?

Speaker 18 (01:27:48):
To take me through that?

Speaker 3 (01:27:49):
Take me through that? When everybody be eating, there's two dances.

Speaker 4 (01:27:52):
That's not they're not eating, well.

Speaker 3 (01:27:53):
They are eating, you're eating. But I thought, what's this one?

Speaker 1 (01:27:58):

the club, high and drunk in the club. They homeboy
next to him was eating and they kept trying to
get some right. So that's the third part, Like you
and the person kept moving as.

Speaker 3 (01:28:08):
