Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yes she is, Jess. We're walking here like you extra
on power. Let's get to the front page news. What's
up to me?
Speaker 8 (04:19):
Good morning, Envy, Jess, and know you're just getting there, Charlamagne.
Speaker 9 (04:22):
How y'all doing this morning? Good morning?
Speaker 10 (04:25):
All right?
Speaker 8 (04:26):
So we start this morning in Pennsylvania, where President Trump
traveled to the Pocono Mountains to make the case that
he's already delivering lower case, lower prices and bigger paychecks,
even as many voters, though, say they are still filling
the squeeze. Now, speaking to about one thousand supporters at
the mount Airy Casino Resort, Truck pointed to the stock
market and for one K's as evidence that the economy
(04:48):
is gaining strength. But his biggest challenge last night was
the same one he always faces nationally, which is convincing
people that their everyday costs are actually going down. At
one minute, at one moment, he doubt played the idea
of affordability altogether, and moments later he said making America
affordable again was his greatest priority.
Speaker 9 (05:08):
Let's listen to some of his speech.
Speaker 11 (05:10):
Gave you high prices, they gave you the highest inflation
in history, and we're giving you we're bringing those prices
down rapidly, lower prices, bigger paychecks. You're getting lower prices,
bigger paychecks. We're getting inflation, we're crushing it, and you're
getting much higher wages. I mean, the only thing that
used it's really going up big. It's called the stock
(05:31):
market and you four oh one case. But they have
a new word. You know, they always have a hoax.
The new word is affordability. So they look at the
camera and they say, this direction is all about affordability.
But under Biden, real wages plummeted by three thousand dollars
(05:52):
a year.
Speaker 12 (05:53):
Under Trump, the typical.
Speaker 11 (05:54):
Factory worker has already seen their wages increased by more
than thirteen hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
They always staying in front of people who don't have
no stocks and point to the stock market. Okay, you
can't lie to people about what they're feeling in their pockets. Like,
go stand in front of some working class people and
try to convince them the economy is good.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
I bet that crowd reaction will be a lot different.
And you're right.
Speaker 8 (06:14):
The numbers they tell a very different story than what
Trump is saying. Most major polls show that voters still
feel financially stretched, and there's also government data that back
set up. The overall cost of living is still rising.
Energy prices are up over the past year, Inflation, which
had been easing, has crept back up following the tariffs
that Trump put in place, and on top of that,
employers have announced more than a million job cuts this year.
(06:37):
That's the highest level since the pandemic, adding to the
sense of unease that many families are already filling and
the polling that there's polling that makes that disconnect even clearer.
Speaker 9 (06:47):
There's a recent.
Speaker 8 (06:48):
Gallup poll that says that sixty eight percent of Americans
they say the economic conditions are getting worse, while only
twenty seven percent of people believe things are improving. Now,
that gap between what Trump is saying and what people
are feeling is becoming one of the defining challenges of
the upcoming election year, especially with affordability consistently ranking as
(07:08):
voter's top concern now.
Speaker 9 (07:10):
During that rally.
Speaker 8 (07:12):
Yesterday, Trump he also veered off on his economic message
several times, and turning his attacks on Congresswoman il hand Omar,
Somali immigrants, and a range of other unrelated issues and
comments that drew reactions from the crowd and also at
times shifted the tone.
Speaker 13 (07:29):
Of the rally.
Speaker 9 (07:31):
So we will continue to see what else.
Speaker 8 (07:33):
Comes from that meeting and as affordability dominates the national conversation.
There were two local races in Florida, or two local races,
one in Florida and one in Georgia that are showing
just how voters are feeling and responding to it.
Speaker 9 (07:47):
At the ballot box.
Speaker 8 (07:47):
So in Miami, a Democrat she just ended a thirty
year Republican streak to become the first woman mayor ever
elected in the city of Miami, Aileen Higgins. She campaigned
directly on affordability and immigration concerns. The feeding a Republican
endorsed by President Trump. And in Georgia, Democrats they flipped
a House seat in a district that Trump carried by
(08:09):
double digits. Eric Glistener, he asks the growing number of
special election wins by Democrats that they have picked up
this year. So clearly affordability, immigration very very key issues
for people in different states and different cities right now.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yes, but you know it's one thing.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
The campaign on affordability is another to get in office
and actually, you know, govern and make things more affordable.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
So that's the important thing.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Like, after you campaign on affordability and you know, you
win whatever election you know you were running for, once
you get in office, you have to have to fight
to make things more affordable.
Speaker 9 (08:42):
Absolutely definitely.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
And so we will see what happens with those two candidates.
A couple of special elections happening there and coming up
at seven. A holiday staple is getting more expensive this year.
It's reviving an age old debate. Will tell you what's
driving the price hike and what it means for your
bottom dollar.
Speaker 3 (08:59):

Speaker 6 (18:35):
It's personal.
Speaker 21 (18:36):
It's between him and Puff, and before between him and Puff,
It's between both of them and God, just the way
Puff is down on.
Speaker 20 (18:42):
His loved Let's play Marlin response to backlash number two.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
I'm gonna make it abundantly clear.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
I'm not here defending Diddy.
Speaker 18 (18:52):
I am here because I got dragged into this because
somebody asked me a question and I had an opinion.
Nobody's wrong forgiving him opinion about any subject period.
Speaker 21 (19:03):
I'm not here defending Diddy. Don't let the narrative fool
you or get to you. Once again, somebody's creating narratives.
This is my point. So please look at the whole
clip that I did, and then look what happens with
the narrative and That's what I'm telling you, y'all.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
People, don't be sheep.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Use your brain.
Speaker 21 (19:23):
It's your freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and don't
ever let nobody bully you.
Speaker 12 (19:28):
Never don't let nobody bully you.
Speaker 6 (19:31):
You got me love a back to's trolling this troll.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
The narrative is you gotta let people go through whatever
it is that they're going through. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Marlin said that people are kicking Diddy while they're down,
So that makes makes people think about Diddy kicking Kathy
while she was down.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
But they're like, you know what, stay out of that one.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
Exactly right, exactly. He posted that video four hours ago.
Speaker 20 (19:50):
I was like, dang, they must have been on him too,
because it's like if he's in La it's like one
o'clock in the morning. I mean it was, but you
know he's he normally is like he gonna move on
about some things, like he gonna have a lot of
fun with it him play.
Speaker 10 (20:03):
That's what he's been doing.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
Now when to come to the money when it's trending,
don't watch what a scary movie six now?
Speaker 3 (20:09):
I want to come to the money. Let me fix
this right now.
Speaker 10 (20:11):
I get you well, plus.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
You got somebody staring to pot fifty curn the podcast guy.
Speaker 20 (20:16):
Yeah, both of them are so fifty and Marlon ways
had been going back and forth every since yesterday when
we left work online, and he said in his video
he's gonna get back to the trolling now. One of
the things that Marlin posted, he posted a video of
fifty cent up here at the breakfast club talking about
what kicked off a lot of fifty cents issue with Diddy.
Did he want to take Marlon? I mean, did he
want to take fifty cent shopping? Let's say, listen to
(20:38):
the fifty cent when he was here some years.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Ago, not fifth when you continuously called Puff gay? Is
that your relationships in Hollywood?
Speaker 22 (20:45):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
I don't call I don't call him gay.
Speaker 6 (20:47):
I said, let me read it.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Let me read Sorry, y'all can no longer help you guys.
Soon you will all be gay and happy. You are
all now left under leadership of Puffy. Daddy bought it in.
There's rainbows.
Speaker 12 (21:03):
I wonna say that because it's the drink champs.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Yes, yeah, he said something fabulous and he goes, yo, No,
but me and you we ain't party like we need
to party.
Speaker 17 (21:11):
What is he talking about and going on people saying
that to me, I get a little comfortable.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
I get uncomfortable.
Speaker 17 (21:18):
Like he said, he said something to me one time,
a long time ago at Chris Nighty's wedding.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
He told me, you take me shopping. I looked at him, like,
what up?
Speaker 6 (21:25):
What what you just say?
Speaker 17 (21:28):
Let me move, man, before I do something, you're gonna
make me mess up the wedding.
Speaker 20 (21:32):
Yeah, so Marla Wayns posted that fifty cent hasuposted Marlon Waynes.
Speaker 10 (21:36):
When you know he took the picture with the flag.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Why didn't Marlon post that?
Speaker 23 (21:39):
Like?
Speaker 10 (21:39):
Why did he? Yeah, they've been going back for for
all night.
Speaker 20 (21:42):
But he's basically saying, fifty cent, you need to explain this, Like, oh,
I get it now, you need to explain this.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
No, Puffy need to explain that what he did on
Breakfast Club, he did have to take fifty shopping.
Speaker 20 (21:50):
Yeah, but you know, Marlon Waynes is basically trying to
make it seem like you was with all the shopping things.
His caption said caption. His caption says, some people just
be lying. Come on, Curtis, stop if you.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Wantn't lie about that, though, said he said, I wanted
to take him shopping.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
He said that here on reference and.
Speaker 10 (22:05):
Then you have some things v AI.
Speaker 14 (22:06):
Now I said I did see some things DV because
I saw I don't know if it was real.
Speaker 10 (22:10):
That's why I think I sent it to you in
a d M.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
But it wasn't.
Speaker 10 (22:13):
It was somebody else that supposedly posted.
Speaker 14 (22:16):
Didn't Marlin posts fitny in like the hot tub with
Diddy or something?
Speaker 10 (22:21):
But is that AI. I don't know if this is
real or not.
Speaker 20 (22:24):
But he did post a photo of fifty cent and
Diddy in a hot tub. Diddy has a cigar in
his hand, and he says, just for the record, bro,
let's correct the narrative. Curtis rub a dub and then
he says stop. Now, fifty cent has also been going
in he posted that photo. I was telling you guys
about Marlin with the flag that you know, when he
came out talking.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
About waking up on the floors.
Speaker 14 (22:44):
I'm saying that he never went to a Diddy party.
But they're a picture of him with Diddy at a
party like they going.
Speaker 10 (22:49):
Back and forth. They've been going. They've definitely been going.
Speaker 20 (22:53):
But he spoke to us Weekly and he told US
Weekly that the way because people are using the trolling
back and forth that he does online and which we
all know fit to use this to be able to say, Okay,
this is why we can't believe fifty cent, because we
know that he has some animosity towards Diddy. But he
told US Weekly and exclusive that they published yesterday that
(23:13):
he went about this documentary completely different than how he
trolls online. He even revealed in the exclusive that he
spoke to Cassie and her husband and that she would
be pleased with the documentary. But he also says that
he had a conversation with Diddy and his son and
that originally Diddy was supposed to be a part of
this documentary and that didn't happen.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Also, I don't understand when people say things like you
can't believe fifty cent when it comes to this documentary.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
I was born in nineteen hundred and seventy eight.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Most of these stories, probably all ninety five percentity stories
we've heard about Diddy before, we just never saw them
package together, I said in a documentary.
Speaker 5 (23:47):
But not only that, fifty didn't speak on a documentary.
He didn't say one word in that documentary. He wasn't
even on the document work.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
With Wendy Williams. I've heard all of these stories a
million times, like this.
Speaker 5 (23:58):
Is new to this generation maybe, And Lauren knows that
they reached out to both sides of everybody on this documentary.
Not just decided that was against Diddy. They reached out
the side of the people that was for did he
just some people didn't want to speak exactly. Some people
wanted to speak. But a lot of these stories, Yeah,
we've heard of these stories.
Speaker 14 (24:14):
What did he say the sons was going to back?
I mean, what did did he say he talked to
Diddy and his son?
Speaker 10 (24:19):
He didn't say.
Speaker 20 (24:19):
He just says he says he hasn't spoken to Diddy
since he went through his case. I had communication with
them and his son or with his son. There was
a point when they were interested in being a part
of the doc because they wanted to show their perspective.
They were concerned about how things would be portrayed as
all he said. So I am trying to figure out
what that conversation was and when it happened and why
didn't they participate, and you know, they're really upset about it.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
So about did he couldn't speak like he was going
through a court case, so he could not speak.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
After, but he couldn't speak during that. The sons had
opportunity to talk. They should have talked because if you
got men on in the court case.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
No, I'm talking about these documentary after the young men
on the documentary saying Puffy touched the butt. Man, you
should be on there defending your dad's lonnor Okay, Laura
Rod said his butt got touched and woke up.
Speaker 10 (25:04):
So he tried to leave that out. He was trying
to leave it for us.
Speaker 24 (25:07):
He's been to figure it out.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
I know what happened. He said he was saw and
did he was laying next to him.
Speaker 20 (25:12):
Yeah, yeah, Well, ray J says, ray J put his j.
Ray J says he doesn't understand how men let that happen.
After he watched the documentary, Let's listen.
Speaker 25 (25:22):
As a journalist, you heard me say what I said,
and that's kind of what cranked this whole thing up.
Speaker 16 (25:26):
And then fast forward to the documentary.
Speaker 25 (25:28):
But just saying that they was getting taken bro multiple
times kept party, owe you.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Some money, yo? What the going on in this world?
Speaker 23 (25:38):
Bro?
Speaker 3 (25:40):
And I woke up with females in the bed.
Speaker 24 (25:43):
Then I woke up and Diddy was in the bed.
What was Diddy doing in the bed? Bro coming out?
Speaker 3 (25:54):
We're in her.
Speaker 10 (25:55):
I know what happened.
Speaker 16 (25:57):
I've been taking, I've.
Speaker 24 (25:58):
Been taking, and now I'm still here like nothing ever happened.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
I agree with Rajie.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
If Little Rod had gotten paid, would he be talking
about puppy touching his butt? If Kirk Burrows would have
gotten this twenty five percent, would he be talking about
puppy touching his butt?
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Correct? Allegedly? Allegedly, but I'm saying I don't know.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
But also what Rayj said is if somebody touched my
butt and I didn't like it, when I come back.
Speaker 10 (26:24):
Right and keep parting. I mean, if you've been in.
Speaker 14 (26:29):
But if somebody promised you you're gonna be super producer, but.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
You touched my bike, I mean, and I didn't like it.
The thing I'm not going to HiT's the thing with
brown men.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
If you tell me that you got you know, assaulted,
sexually assaulted, the next thing you should be telling me
is that you caught an assaultant battery would intend to
kill case, Okay, but.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
Even if you should, if you sawten, You're not that
type of individual. You're not gonna come back.
Speaker 20 (26:53):
Charlote MAInet be trying to hug you from the back,
and you show up to work the next day.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
You never try to hunt that man from the back
like this.
Speaker 10 (26:59):
You get up and walk behind his chair and here.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
You want to do your own record and so mine.
That ain't never happened.
Speaker 26 (27:04):
You saw him do that to me?
Speaker 3 (27:05):
I did not do that.
Speaker 20 (27:09):
We'll comeing in and try to hug all the time
I've seen you get up and walk over behind his chair,
especially when you got the tim.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
You can't hug me.
Speaker 5 (27:16):
We've known each other for a long time, but that's
our university, you know.
Speaker 10 (27:21):
That's what we used to say.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
That's my brother, and we came up in New York
and the nineties. And that's why I be lyrics.
Speaker 6 (27:28):
Behavior.
Speaker 16 (27:28):
That's his error error.
Speaker 6 (27:30):
He came up.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
You see this right come out as yay.
Speaker 10 (27:38):
That's where the journalist though. That's what he always has
been saying.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
I raided the fifty to bring back one of his
classic lines. Man, I heard Puffy touch your butt. You
need the T shirts fifth to remember. She said, you
can just say that all the time I heard Buffy
touch your butt.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Ain't nobody more consistant than Curtis Jackson. You hear me.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
He's like this all the time, not just in on
public private, be going for like all.
Speaker 10 (28:06):
Because Marlond don't stop me.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Yeah, alright, that's the latest for Laura. When we can
come back.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
We got front page News and then we have the
cast of Owning New Yawk. Season two is out right
now is on the Manhattan. Season two is out now.
Ryan Sirhan will be joining us. I don't go anywhere
as to breakfast slo Good morning Owning everybody with ej Envy,
Jess Hilarious, Charlomagne to God. We are to breakfast club.
Let's get back at some front page news.
Speaker 13 (28:27):
What's up?
Speaker 8 (28:27):
Maybe good morning Envy, Jeff Charlamage, how y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 23 (28:31):
Me?
Speaker 9 (28:32):
Good morning.
Speaker 8 (28:33):
So we start this hour in Kentucky, we're shooting on
the campus of Kentucky State University. Historically black institution has
left one student dead and another fighting serious injuries. Officiill
say the violence unfolded yesterday near Whitney Young Junior Hall.
That's a dorm on the south side of the campus,
right in the middle of finals week. Now, according to
(28:54):
university leaders, the injured student is now in critical but
stable condition, and early information shows the shooter.
Speaker 9 (29:01):
Was not connected to the school. The suspect, forty eight
year old Jacob Lee Bard.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
Of Evansville, Indiana, is in custody and charged with murder
and first degree assault. Let's listen to some of the
press conference from local authorities.
Speaker 27 (29:14):
Within minutes, by three fourteen pm, frank For Police officers
arrived on scene. By that time, Kentucky State University campus
police had already taken swift action action bringing a suspect
into custody. Three individuals were involved in the incident. Individual
who is not a Kentucky State University student, is in custody.
(29:35):
Frank For police believed this to be an isolated incident
and there are no active safety concerns on campus at
this time.
Speaker 8 (29:44):
Well please, yeah, police say the campus was on lockdown
and the area was secured, but for many students the
fear didn't in there. They told reporters their sense of
safety has been shattered. Let's listen to what they have
to say.
Speaker 28 (29:57):
Well, we got finals this week, we just chilling this week.
We ain't thinking that go go or with me, and
then it just happened.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
I heard them let too often.
Speaker 28 (30:05):
After that, it just was crazy and it took about
what thirty minutes for the cops to get here, So
it really was crazy. Then, just the type of stuff
we try to get away from and it come to
college and have to be right at our doorstep. It's
just like crazy and we pay too much money for
this kind of stuff to be taking place at this school. Yeah,
I feel the same way basically, like I thought we
were safe here, ready to get up.
Speaker 6 (30:24):
Out of here.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Now that I heard that angle, it kind.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
Of defeasts the off person even coming to college shit
this year.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
That's why I don't be liking the people. That's exactly
why I don't like people. And you know what I'm saying,
people in.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
Yes, no people in it.
Speaker 4 (30:38):
When you gotta be around people, okay, because you just
never know what folks be on. Man, everybody is a
potential shooter. When I used to work with Windy Wis
used to always talking about the shooter, the shooter, the
shooter might be around. I mean she had a reason
to believe that. But still, however, you're in a crowded place,
but you just never know.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
But them kids are right, Like, you go to college
and get away from a lot of the bs to learn,
to further education. And that's a place that you figure
will be safe, right, A bunch of students in a
place that just want to learn. And then you've got
somebody that doesn't go to this school that kills a
(31:14):
young man.
Speaker 14 (31:15):
And they sound, you know, it's like, dang, I don't
even want to you know, be here, you know it said.
Speaker 8 (31:21):
And that's such a good point, Jess, because one of
the young men that was interviewed was like, he doesn't
even want to come back after the semester is over.
Speaker 9 (31:28):
Because this happened.
Speaker 8 (31:30):
And a statement the university's president, they call the shooting
a senseless tragedy that has left the entire campus grieving,
and officials are urging anyone who needs counseling to reach out.
There will be support and services available for students, staff
and faculty, and the school has canceled classes, final exams,
and all campus activities for the rest of the week,
and students are being told that they can return home
(31:52):
if they choose, and more guidance will be shared in
the coming days.
Speaker 4 (31:56):
Yeah, psychologically, that have to mess you up, because if
you come from a certain environment, you like you know
how to move right, like you kind of know who's who,
you know what to avoid?
Speaker 3 (32:03):
How you do that on campus? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Sure?
Speaker 8 (32:06):
And switching gears now to a story that's getting a
lot of attention on social media and just this is
something you brought to my attention. Posts are circulating claiming
Meta will start reading all of your private messages on Facebook, Instagram,
and WhatsApp. One viral post with more than two hundred
and thirty eight thousand likes says that Meta will start
reading your dms on December sixteenth, Every conversation, every photo,
(32:29):
every voice message fed to AI used for profit.
Speaker 9 (32:32):
No Meta says that is not true, and here is
what is actually happening.
Speaker 8 (32:36):
No Meta is rolling out a policy update on September
or excuse me, December sixteenth, But it does not give
the company access to your private messages, those private conversations
with friends and families that remains into end encrypted, which
means Meta cannot read them. But what the update actually
does is it allows Meta to use the messages that
you send directly to its Meta AI.
Speaker 9 (32:58):
Chat box for personal life content and ads.
Speaker 8 (33:01):
So if you ask AI about hiking, for example, you
might start seeing more hiking apps trail posts or ads
for hiking boots something like that. Meta said that is
no different from how Instagram already reacts when you watch
your rail that activity will shape what you see next.
And to clear things up, Snopes, which is an independent
fact based publication known for verifying viral claims and misinformation,
(33:24):
they reached out to Meta for a clarification, and they
sent back a statement that says, we do not use
the content of your private message with friends or family
to train our AI unless you are someone in the
chat chooses to share those messages with our AI. This
also is it new, nor is it part of our
December sixteenth privacy policy update.
Speaker 10 (33:46):
Okay, cool, because I was ready done. I am done, man, But.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
It's crazy to me that y'all y'all don't assume that
they're already looking at all your stuff now.
Speaker 14 (33:59):
Absolutely yeah, but when you hear that, it's gonna be
like sold or put out there. You never know who
won't get it and then be like.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
Just said or just damn that's what she was saying.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
But once again, it's crazy that y'all assumed that they
wouldn't do that anyway. You know what, the craziest thing
to me was when everybody gets on these apps like
Signal and everything else, and they'd be like, we can
send secret messages.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
You really think somebody gonna create a whole.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
App for you to send secret messages and they're not
gonna look at it.
Speaker 10 (34:27):
It's a lot accessible.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
Once app text all that look at all.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
Just assume whatever you texted, whatever site you on, and
you sending stuff DM that somebody can see if you
move like that, and promise you you'll avoid a lot
of problems in the future.
Speaker 8 (34:41):
All right, Well, now to a very different kind of
holiday delivery. So correctional officers at a South Carolina prison
say a drone flew over the prison yard and dropped
a package that looked less like contraband and more like
someone was prepping for.
Speaker 9 (34:55):
A full holiday feast.
Speaker 8 (34:57):
So inside that package was crab, lif eggs, raw steak,
old based seasoning, cigarettes, and two large bags of marijuana.
Speaker 10 (35:05):
This was a Bottimore Carolin.
Speaker 3 (35:10):
Yeah, okay, yep.
Speaker 8 (35:14):
So all of this was wrapped neatly in a bag
a pigley wiggly shopping down. So the Department of Corrections
they even joked that someone was clearly planning an early
Old Bay crab boil.
Speaker 9 (35:26):
And steak dinner.
Speaker 8 (35:27):
Officials say that drone drops are a growing problem nation wide,
but they usually involved dangerous drugs.
Speaker 9 (35:32):
Not seafood and seasoning.
Speaker 8 (35:35):
No arrests have been made, and officials are still investigating
who that package.
Speaker 9 (35:39):
Was meant for.
Speaker 3 (35:40):
Hey, listen, man, I a'm mad at him for trying.
Speaker 4 (35:42):
It's the holidays, man, I need me a seafood boil,
some weed, you know what I see the problem?
Speaker 3 (35:47):
Man, I'm be honest with you. He tried whoever it
was tried, I can't be mad at him for trying.
Speaker 9 (35:52):
They definitely, they definitely tried it.
Speaker 8 (35:55):
And lastly, to a serious question that needs answered this morning.
So are y'all tea real tree or team artificial?
Speaker 10 (36:03):
No, damn Pine, I'm artificial.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
I've always been team real Tree. But you know, my
wife ain't having it.
Speaker 6 (36:11):
She ain't.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
She hasn't been having it the past couple of years.
We artificial tree.
Speaker 9 (36:15):
All of these guys are artificial trees.
Speaker 8 (36:17):
Okay, Well, because this year the Christmas tree debate is
even louder than ever so real tree fans uh, They
swear that nothing beats the smell, just the tradition, the
moment of bringing that pine sent home and artificial tree.
People say they're done with the pine needles, the watering,
and the mess. They want something they can just pull
out of a box and plug in. But this year, yeah,
(36:37):
but the cost this year is the real debate. Seventy
percent of households are choosing artificial not just for the convenience,
but for the price. A real tree can run anywhere
from one hundred and twenty to two hundred dollars this season,
things to drought and transportation costs. But artificial trees aren't
cheap either. Pre lit versions with all the settings, those
(36:58):
are selling for.
Speaker 9 (36:59):
About four hundred dollars this year. All right, y'all, Well

Speaker 3 (37:46):
Go first, I want to say thank you to Ryan.
I told him. I called him one day and I said,
my daughter's in NYU.
Speaker 5 (37:50):
She wanted to get into real estate, and he told me, well,
first she has to get a license. So she got
her license in New York, got her license in New Jersey.
That called it back and he actually gave her a
job which was pretty don't and she learned the real
estate industry from Sir Hamp and ends the outs and
then she's now she's in Jerseys and she works. I
just want to say thank you, thanks Man real estate
agent for TV the last thing.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
He's real.
Speaker 20 (38:17):
Probably has a lot though people think you you don't
really do it anymore.
Speaker 29 (38:20):
I bump into people in New York on the street
all the time and they're like, what are you doing
in New York today? Like I live here, Oh, it's
it's not on a set in l a. I'm like, no,
it's real. It's the most real TV show in the
history of the world, and you're actually working.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:34):
Actually it's because you give actor like you.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
Look like.
Speaker 20 (38:44):
I said, you look exactly like you look on TV.
It's like the look.
Speaker 26 (38:48):
Yeah, yeah, I try to stay in character.
Speaker 29 (38:50):
I shaved my head this summer and I was recognized
less and it was it was hard for me.
Speaker 26 (38:55):
I went back into costume.
Speaker 5 (38:59):
Really said, there's a lot of At one time, I
feel like all on TV there was nothing but real
estate shows, right, and they were good.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
I thought they were great, and then I see.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
Like none, yeah, like they or what is happening with
the real estate industry where people are either leaving or
maybe people are not doing as well as they experience
of thought, why is that?
Speaker 29 (39:17):
I mean, we all have feelings about that. I don't
think it has to do with the real estate industry.
I think it has to do with media and how
people consume media. It used to be so million Dollar
Listing was the first show I did in twenty twelve.
Right show, So we did it for ten years, and
that show was special because you couldn't get access to
a ten million dollar house right as a viewer, Like
(39:37):
you couldn't see a fifty million dollars penhouse. You had
to turn on TV to see what that looked like. Today,
everything is in the palm of your hand. You can
go on Sora and invent one if you want to.
So the shows now are no longer about the access.
So if you're a if you want to make a
real estate show and all you have is real estate,
no one cares. And I think what makes this show
so special people like Patricia and Jeffrey, who are characters.
(40:01):
They're great people, but they are characters in this insane
world of New York City real estate, and that's what
people want to see. That the real estate is actually
like the bookends, right, it's the skeleton, Like, yeah, it's
the backdrop. And then so a lot of the shows
have come off the air, they've tried and they've been
canceled because they suck.
Speaker 16 (40:21):
And then we tell a great story too.
Speaker 30 (40:23):
How often do you have like a couple that's together,
working together, you know, live together, and just together, shoot together,
you know, and.
Speaker 16 (40:31):
Actually come from Brooklyn to go into Manhattan.
Speaker 30 (40:33):
So there's interesting storylines and we really try to like
tell it differently so that the viewer. At some point
you're gonna get tired of seeing the same thing over
and over again. So, I mean, I think the thing
that we really did different is like we really got
into great storytelling and really visually, when you look at
it, it looks almost like a docu series.
Speaker 16 (40:48):
It doesn't really feel like typical reality TV.
Speaker 5 (40:51):
Yeah, and how's the market now? How is the marketing?
I mean it's they're saying and hous has been on
the market the longest in a long time?
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Is it a bias market? Is a sell as mall?
Where should people be looking? Should they be looking now?
Should they sit it out? What's your thoughts on it?
Speaker 30 (41:04):
I mean, personally, I think it's always a good time
to look. I mean whenever. Like there's a couple of things.
There's a tale of two markets. I call it because
you have if you look at you know, luxury sector
four milliona up in the data, you gotta be careful
like what you read and what you hear and just
really look at the data. The data shows that there's
been a lot of sales in that track in that
price point. And now conversely with lower price points, people
are affected by interest rates. But we do see interest
(41:26):
rates dropping and getting lower, so then people start to
become more active. So I think the time is really now,
and especially this time in the season, this is when
you can get deals. You know, during this time, things
like to your point have been sitting on the market
for a little bit, but now you can be more
aggressive as a buyer. So it just finds that little
comfortable medium between you know, sellers that are realistic about
pricing and buyers who are realistic about where they can
(41:48):
land and where you can find a deal you can
find it.
Speaker 23 (41:51):
Well.
Speaker 22 (41:51):
I think it's a little different for us because our
brokerage gets quite a bit of visibility. So there's the
market and then there's our business, which is very different,
Like we get I mean, our phone are ringing, We're
very busy. We are listing billions of dollars of real estate.
And I think that only Manhattan has some part of that.
You know, the brand has a lot to do with it,
and I think the characters that are at the firm.
(42:11):
I think everyone that is at Sir Hanton has such
their of their own individual's story. Like I think I
don't know if it was Ryan or when the producer said,
it's like all of these people just show up and
they all think that they're the lead and they're the
main character, and they just happen to all be.
Speaker 13 (42:23):
Sitting in a room.
Speaker 22 (42:24):
And that's how it is because in my mind, I'm
the star of the show, and I think that's safe.
Speaker 13 (42:28):
It's the same for everyone else.
Speaker 16 (42:30):
Actually are really clear.
Speaker 22 (42:32):
But I think that's what's interesting about the brand is
it really attracts people that are really like the face
of their business and they're comfortable with that, and they
lean into it and they use media and really creative
ways to do it. So our business is very different
than the market business right now.
Speaker 13 (42:45):
We're grateful for that.
Speaker 5 (42:46):
I was going to ask, you know, with the market
being bad in a lot of places and people being
broke and just being able to afford, you know, rent,
at the time, they've been encouraging people to start buying
houses so that money that they're paying for rent.
Speaker 3 (42:57):
Could actually be towards house.
Speaker 5 (42:58):
Is there places or some type of grants that you
send people to what they could actually get help with
doing that.
Speaker 22 (43:04):
I'd like the best help personally, because I mean we're
speaking about New York specifically, is to buy together and
to get creative about it. You know, jen Z is
getting that right, and I think that millennials missed out
on that mark.
Speaker 13 (43:15):
But when I.
Speaker 22 (43:16):
Speak to people, especially all through bedste Brooklyn and Brooklyn
Heights wherever, there's so many stories. Are you and I
bought and then as soon as we were up on
our feet, then we got We made sure our sister bought,
and then we made sure our cousins bought.
Speaker 13 (43:28):
So when I talk to people and we're selling these houses.
Speaker 22 (43:30):
Multimillion dollar homes people have been for twenty thirty years,
the stories are all the same. They got creative and
they did it together. Yeah, you know, it's easier.
Speaker 26 (43:37):
You can sell portions of an LLC.
Speaker 29 (43:39):
So co ownership for younger generation is becoming a thing
that we do now that we've never done before. So
New York City's hard because you can only cut it
up a couple different ways.
Speaker 26 (43:48):
But like, if you like, you can.
Speaker 29 (43:50):
Take eight eight cousins in Florida and you can cut
up a purchase price times eight and maybe only two
of you live there, but the rest of you are
helping and it's an investment for them and you get
to ride the market as the market increases.
Speaker 22 (44:02):
Equity is always gorgeous. Yeah, you know, especially I mean
in New York. I've watched it for twenty two years straight,
and I just I always tell everyone we can walk
down the block anywhere in Brooklyn or anywhere in Manhattan,
and we feel proud of the work that we've done
for our clients because if I see you five years.
Speaker 13 (44:16):
From now, I know I'm going to be the favorite
person you run.
Speaker 22 (44:18):
Into today because I know it was a part of
that really smart investment that you've made, and that feels
good in the daily work.
Speaker 4 (44:24):
What's the quiet you know pressures y'all carry now because
of this show, because you know, when you think about
your brand, your brokerage, your brokerage, they're all tied to
decisions that are made on this show.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
Are there any pressure that comes to the yes?
Speaker 29 (44:38):
Yeah, I mean it's you know, someone said to me yesterday,
the show is uncomfortably authentic. And I think to your
point about other shows not being on the air anymore,
no one wants to be sold right, No one wants
to watch stuff that's super produced anymore. Like the show
watches us in real time, whether deals get done or not,
whether people are happy or not, whether things are going
(44:59):
our way or not. I think all three of us
have some sort of mental breakdown this season on camera
that we probably wish was not out there, and so
there's there's a lot of pressure.
Speaker 26 (45:08):
But I think we we also.
Speaker 29 (45:10):
Understand the role of our responsibility to to not just
the world, but to our industry to to show it
in as great of a light as we possibly can
and then make use of it.
Speaker 26 (45:20):
Man, like we are so lucky. It is not lost
on us.
Speaker 29 (45:23):
Like it's it's hard enough to get one TV show,
let alone a big one like this that's on a
global network like Netflix that drops all over the world
in one day where people get to say, oh, I'll
go work.
Speaker 26 (45:33):
With those people. I mean, it's a it's a massive
commercial for us, and I.
Speaker 16 (45:36):
Need to have it picked up for season two's that's
even the bigger thing.
Speaker 26 (45:39):
That's a hard or three three.
Speaker 13 (45:40):
Now Ever, I think it has changed.
Speaker 22 (45:47):
I think for season one, for me, it was like
I am showing up as the black woman, and I
created this this pressure for myself that I had to
at some point release to really give myself that freedom.
And then obviously I felt that it gave other black
women that freedom. I was like, I'm just gonna show
up as me and y'all are going to love it
or leave, but I don't care. And I'll give you
the realness of who I am. But I'll also give
(46:07):
you all the layers of who I am. So I'm
not going to just show up and be the person
that's sassy. I'm also going to be smart. I'm also
going to be gentle. I'm gonna be vulnerable, I'm gonna
be I can be very maternal in some moments. You know,
I can be a teacher in some moments. I can
also check you in other moments. And so I felt like,
let me just show all of that, and that's the
only pressure I'm going to put on myself.
Speaker 6 (46:25):
Now.
Speaker 22 (46:26):
I feel that the pressure is kind of always showing
that we are actual, real agents, because that's the question
we could ask the most. And I mean, I can't
speak for everyone on the show, but I'm.
Speaker 13 (46:35):
Ten years in.
Speaker 22 (46:36):
I had my ten year anniversary last week, yes, and
another ten year anniversary as well.
Speaker 13 (46:44):
But yeah, so it's like, but no, it's it's to me.
Speaker 22 (46:56):
It's like I do feel the need to know just
validate my business, and I never felt that before, but
being on TV, people just decide that you're not actually
really doing this. I have to be on top of
my emails to the moment I walk in and talk
to you guys, and then start right back up the
minute I walk out. My clients don't care nothing about
what I'm doing right now or that show.
Speaker 13 (47:16):
They care about their assets.
Speaker 3 (47:18):
What about you everyone?
Speaker 30 (47:19):
I mean, I think one thing, just to pick it
back on what Trisha saying, I think it's important to understand,
like the vulnerability that we reveal on the show because
with us, part of our story arc is that we're
coming from Brooklyn into Manhattan and there's some great story
origins with one of a new listing that we have
like here on fifth Ave, five East fifty ninth Street,
and the origin story with Trish and how that happened,
(47:41):
which is nothing that we plan or stage whatsoever. This
is all authentic and how that comes full circle the moment,
and when you watch the show you'll get to you know,
to already understand it. But it's really heartfelt. I would
say probably one of the most compelling moments of the season.
Speaker 13 (47:56):
I mean, we're shocked.
Speaker 3 (47:57):
I'm so shocked.
Speaker 22 (47:58):
I forget the cameras are there and I'm like what,
and they catch everything because it was just it was
such a surprise.
Speaker 30 (48:04):
But to answer your question for me, me, what's really
important is what Tricia's is to really make sure that
people understand that we know the business. The truth is,
you have to know the business inside out. You have
to be cognizant of what's happening in real time. You
got to be able to disseminate, like what's the truth
and how does it really impact you? Because everything you
know real estate is really both macro and micro, So
you got to be able to understand what's micro for
(48:25):
your world and the macro piece that you read from,
you know, on every other platform. So I won't say
this though, I didn't necessarily understand how difficult real estate
was right until I had a daughter in it. Right, yes,
And I'm watching her with the emails and sending out emails,
and then.
Speaker 3 (48:40):
I'm watching her.
Speaker 5 (48:41):
She'll get somebody and she'll go to short apartment and
she'll drive forty minutes to that apartment, and then the
person to saying I have to I can't do it today,
and how much time it takes, and you break down
how much.
Speaker 3 (48:50):
Effort energy it goes into doing it because people just
see the glitz goes on to like Jesus.
Speaker 30 (48:58):
I mean, we're in ten years for a reason, so
it just didn't happen right off the bat. We're here
on owning Manhattan or we're just selling you know, fifteen
twenty million dollar properties.
Speaker 16 (49:07):
You have to start from the grind.
Speaker 30 (49:10):
I mean there are times when you work from months
to two months to three months without getting paid.
Speaker 16 (49:13):
How long did you get paid on your first deal?
Speaker 13 (49:15):
Oh my gosh, six months and it was no money
at all, no money at all.
Speaker 22 (49:18):
So yeah, and there's I feel like the shows they
tend to show all the glitz, and there's so much
work that we do we never get paid for. There's
so many efforts that we make that nobody cares about.
And I feel like being on the show, I want
to make sure I share that story because the assumption
is when you look really great and maybe Ryan will
hire you, and then you'll end up on the show
and then you'll sell real estate. It's the complete opposite
(49:39):
business plan. It's like, you've got to do a really
great job, even be like on the radar. Yeah, to
even end up on the radar and then being on
the show creates pressure too, because I don't want to
put a product out there that I can't sell, because
I mean, every time I run into anybody, they're like, oh, so,
what happened with you know?
Speaker 29 (49:56):
Yes, you know, because you film in real time, and
so you're like, hey, I just got this listing, this
building or this penhouse something like, let's go film it
and then but filming doesn't last forever. You eventually have
to stop and if it hasn't sold, that's what happens.
And then everyone what happened, Well, oh did you failed
in front of the world.
Speaker 26 (50:17):
It's selling an apartment that's not that hard.
Speaker 30 (50:19):
And then one thing that you don't realize as we're shooting,
often times we're still negotiating at real time, so we're
shooting under the eyes of this is going to be
sold on the show, and we're just hoping that he
gets sold. Like that was the case last season for us.
I mean, it was a property that we we were
just we shot it, we closed it, and like we
were still the closing table trying to close in real
time as we were shooting the scene of it being closed,
(50:40):
and it.
Speaker 22 (50:40):
Was like such a difficult transaction. It got like awarded
Real Estate Board.
Speaker 3 (50:44):
They won a Deal of the Year of New York.
Speaker 22 (50:47):
So and that's really an award. It's hard to do
that a deal that shouldn't have closed. That's that's the
reason for the award. The whole industry gets together to say,
you actually did it. That was the deal that was
on the show first season. So imagine the layer of
stress there, you know, and you're on TV for the
first time as well.
Speaker 20 (51:03):
Yeah, but I was going to say, so on top
of all the stress you're on TV, you also have
like your personal lives that are being shown.
Speaker 10 (51:07):
There's a character there. Where do y'all find the time
to do all of that, like work?
Speaker 20 (51:12):
Like what are y'all teams like behind the scenes to
help you guys, because there's a lot of interaction of
correspondence with trying to close something.
Speaker 13 (51:19):
There's so much support though.
Speaker 30 (51:20):
But it's just really time management and just having a
support system, like thankfully, that's part of the reasons.
Speaker 26 (51:24):
Why, and not wasting time.
Speaker 2 (51:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 29 (51:27):
A big piece of advice I give to people a lot,
especially younger younger people, is you have the time. Everyone's
got the same amount of hours, yep, Like I have
the same amount hours that she has that Oprah has,
you know what I mean, Like we all have the
same amount of time in a day and do a
time audit like actually, just the same way if you're
trying to lose weight, like you do a diet, you know,
journal to see like oh wait, you're right, Like I
do eat a lot. I just eat a little bit
(51:48):
all the time, and then it all adds up. Same
thing with time, like if you'll see, shoot, okay, my
screen time, Wow, I did open TikTok seventy two times today.
What if I didn't do that? What else could I do?
Speaker 17 (52:01):
You know?
Speaker 29 (52:02):
And so that's like that's an epidemic and that brain
rot right, you know, it's it's real.
Speaker 26 (52:09):
It's totally real.
Speaker 29 (52:09):
Which is like in Australia now they outlawed social media
for kids under sixteen. That's which I think is really
going to change the landscape, you know, country by country
by country, and I think it's a major mental health
issue just because it's easier and then you're never bored,
and kids need to be bored, Like they got to
figure things out, they got to find things to be difficult,
and it's one of the harder things about hiring kids
(52:31):
now out of school to come work in real estate.
Is they're like, all right, well, where's where's the thing?
The thing, the thing, the thing, Like you just sit
still and you just need to put in the work.
And they've never done it before, Like they've never built
a blockhouse, because you can't swipe a block house.
Speaker 3 (52:47):
What's the one house that you guys didn't sell? That
bites at you every day? Oh my god.
Speaker 29 (52:52):
COVID going twenty nineteen, going to twenty twenty, a foreign
investment fund wanted to buy a building in New York
City And I never sold a building before, okay, And
we found a building on the East Side. It's called
Copper Towers, the building that looks like a like a
k Okay. It was March, the beginning of March of
twenty twenty. We had a contract out for just under
(53:13):
nine hundred and ninety million dollars and I had never
done a deal like that before, like literally life changing.
The money that was coming in was heavily backed by
oil money. And then people started getting sick and the
price of oil drops, the stock market tanks, the deal
gets put on ice, and the deal dies and then
it someone else bought it, like two years later, and.
Speaker 26 (53:33):
I think about that deal dying. What would commission I
would be.
Speaker 29 (53:38):
Two percent of basically a billion, you know, yeah, so
it'd have been I think just under twenty million dollars.
Speaker 26 (53:45):
And I think about that four times a day.
Speaker 29 (53:49):
So that that jumped, right, and you think about that
deal because it was just so and what we all
have those. I mean, if you were thinking about getting
into real estate and you're thinking about your career, anybody
can do it because it's seventy five eighty hours you
click online. The barrier of entry is incredibly low, but
the chance of success is it's even lower.
Speaker 11 (54:08):
Right.
Speaker 29 (54:08):
Ninety percent of everyone who gets a license bails because
there's no benefit, there's no salary. You have to eat
what you kill, and no one tells you what to do.
But if you put in the work, if you're good
to people, you follow up, you can have a completely
limitless career. And I think that opportunity is part of
the magic that the show also follows, because it does
follow all the dead deals. Because our job is to lose.
(54:29):
The job is to swing so much that you lose.
You take so many shots at the net that you
just you miss them all because the ones that go
in are worth it, you know, and you're only as
good as your last deal in this business. I was
selling an apartment before Uber came out to one of
the taxi kings of New York City who owned all
the medallions. Super rich, right, super super rich buying an
apartment in Lower Manhattan. It's like twenty five million dollars,
(54:52):
full floor, insane deal, but it's new construction. So you
go to contract like two years before you close. In
those two years Uber gets approved to come into New
York City, taxis basically disappear, and the value of that medallion,
which went from like one point one one point two
million dollars, went to like two hundred grand, So his
net worth went from here all the way to here,
(55:14):
and he couldn't close. And I remember like they were
going to take his deposit, which in a building like
that is I think twenty percent, so twenty percent of
about you know, of a it's like five million bucks
kind of you know, would say, but five million dollars
you lose. And he like grabbed me by my my
suit lapel and he put me up against the wall.
I'll tell the story because I put it in a book,
(55:34):
and he never came after me, but uh, and he
was like, he's like, I've put people under the bridge.
If you don't get me out of this, you're next.
And I had to find him an attorney to try
to get and we found something in the offering Plan,
which is the book that the Attorney General approves one
line that the developer hadn't actually done their job on
(55:57):
and we got him out of his deposit.
Speaker 26 (55:59):
And I'm still here today.
Speaker 3 (56:00):
Jesus.
Speaker 26 (56:01):
That one was a rough one.
Speaker 22 (56:02):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (56:03):
And how you deal with people yelling at you?
Speaker 5 (56:05):
Right, because at the end of the day, you're doing
a job for a client, right, and you're trying to
do the best job that you can. But sometimes I'm
sure things don't go to way it they want, but
the disrespect and I see it sometimes.
Speaker 3 (56:15):
So how do y'all deal with that?
Speaker 26 (56:16):
It's never you you have to.
Speaker 29 (56:19):
It's hard at the beginning until you understand that people
never really grow up. They're just disguised as like forty
year old men, you know, and they don't know who
else to take it out on, so they take it
out on you, like Mary, Yeah, but like married couples,
like is she gonna yell at her husband. You know what,
it's easier to yell at Jeffrey because she's angry at
the situation, not necessarily angry at us. So like you
(56:40):
always just have to detach and understand that they're upset
about the situation and you have to be able to
empathize with it. And then you just mirror and say,
I understand. If I could yell at myself, I would like,
I'm here with you, and you just keep you agree,
you agree, you agree, and then you hit them with solution, solution, solution,
and then they don't know what to do and they say,
just fix it, right, and that's how that's how you
get through it.
Speaker 30 (57:00):
And a lot of this, like we wear multiple hats.
I mean, part of it is a therapist, right, you know,
being able to understand, be empathetic to what they're going
through and then realizing that this is someone's most you know,
the biggest asset and so the most expensive asset ever,
so you got to really understand where it's coming from. No,
it's not really you, it's just them, and they're like,
oh my god, this isn't happening the way I expected
(57:21):
it to happen. So you just have to understand and
just have you know, answers and solutions to whatever the
issue is. In like right then and there, most.
Speaker 26 (57:28):
Of the people are just mad at themselves and so
they they just take it out on other people.
Speaker 6 (57:32):
Yeah, I do that.
Speaker 20 (57:34):
So you break down in the trailer, you break down
just because of all of the pressure. How often do
y'all break down even though it's not y'all lunch and.
Speaker 26 (57:46):
Yeah, typically eleven am.
Speaker 30 (57:48):
It varies are the deals and what we're dealing with,
you know, like there are times where you know, deals
just fall apart and you do everything you can, they
still fall apart.
Speaker 3 (57:56):
You know, what was your like what was it?
Speaker 10 (57:58):
Exactly? Like, what is the biggest This is the cherry
on top day? Now the tiers are flowing.
Speaker 29 (58:03):
That scene, Yeah, that's in the season finale. Was not anticipated.
It wasn't like planned or anything, and just goes to
how real this show is and how uncomfortable a lot
of it is.
Speaker 26 (58:14):
The show is also really funny. You know, it's very aspirational.
Speaker 29 (58:17):
It's very sexy, glitzy, big real estate and all that,
but then at the same time it shows all the
gutters of the business too, and there's just a lot
you know, there's a lot going on. I bootstrapped the
business for four years by myself, you know, on one
hundred percent of it.
Speaker 26 (58:32):
Everything's on me. Do I grow? Do I not grow?
Speaker 29 (58:34):
People are angry, people are happy. There's personal pressures. There's
no time. I sleep four hours a day. Why did
I ever do this?
Speaker 3 (58:40):
Should I?
Speaker 6 (58:41):
Should? I just move?
Speaker 29 (58:42):
Like you know, there's just like a lot of this,
and I have no one to talk to you because
everyone is biased. Your therapist is biased, your spouse is
by your friend, the company, my mom is biased based therapist,
but they're they're they're biased to you. They almost best
for you always if you're a therapist and you're watching this.
My email is Ryan at sir Hanson dot com.
Speaker 16 (59:04):
Mental Health.
Speaker 29 (59:05):
And I was talking to my ex assistant, who I
just have like a very friendly relationship with and he
was in my email for five years, so he just
knows my life. And it was the first time I
had actually just like talked about everything that was going on.
And you know, I think, I say, like, I focus
on the work because the work keeps me focused and
I don't know what else to do. And then there
(59:28):
was just an awkward silence and then I just lost
it and then the cameras are there and I'm.
Speaker 13 (59:32):
Like, God, Jesus, I feel like everyone found out about that.
They're like Ryan was crying. I was like wait, and
we're like he doesn't have any emotions.
Speaker 26 (59:38):
That man has no heart doing that?
Speaker 5 (59:41):
Are people from a million dollaristic? I feel like they
just just off the face of the planet. Like any
of those guys anymore, no crazy, no I have.
Speaker 3 (59:49):
You don't see them. The more you'll hear any shows,
I realize the same show this, but none of those guys.
You just don't see them anymore. And it's just weird
that you.
Speaker 29 (01:00:06):
Just Only Manhattan is my fifth reality show. I did
four for Bravo, million Dollar listing, a wedding show, a
renovation show, and then a show called Sell It Like Sirhan,
which we turned into sell It dot Com, which is
a sales training business, and then Only Manhattan, which we
you know, push over to Netflix. And I think what's
what's cool for us is I think for other shows
and the other guys, right, a lot of people like
(01:00:27):
you talked about, they get on TV and they want
to be on TV. They want to be famous, they
want to become influencers and sell toasters or whatever. The
three of us have like fame as a byproduct of
our ability to do more business and build the greatest
careers of all time. And I think the audience sees that,
and so they keep giving us more because it's just real.
(01:00:49):
And so I built a sales team my first you
know career as a real estate agent on the back
of Bravo, you know, million dollar listing, and now we're
building a company and kind of a metaway on the
backs of net Flix. And people get to watch like
going from a couple of us at a dinner table
to Okay, there's fifteen hundred of us now in fifteen states.
Speaker 26 (01:01:09):
What does that look like?
Speaker 29 (01:01:10):
And then just watch that whole jenet to raising money
for the first time to getting fired, having people quit
on you. And so yeah, so I think the other guys,
you know, were I mean, you know, I think there's
a lot of one hit wonders out there across the board.
You see the music, you see it the sports, you know,
And so we work really really hard to focus on
the work.
Speaker 26 (01:01:27):
If you take care of the work, the work will
take care of you.
Speaker 5 (01:01:29):
We appreciate you guys for joining us sent two of
Owning Manhattan. It's on Netflix right now. Ryan, Sir, Hanchrister,
Lee and Jeffrey say, om on, thank you so much.
Speaker 6 (01:01:36):
Thanks.
Speaker 3 (01:01:37):
How about a niece's looking for something.
Speaker 16 (01:01:39):
She'sa come right to Brooks and I already spoke to it.
Speaker 3 (01:01:41):
Okay, say no more good, all right, it's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning. Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
Speaker 12 (01:01:45):
Lauren becoming a straight there.
Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
She gets them from somebody that knows somebody detail.
Speaker 10 (01:01:52):
I'm a long guard that knows a little bit about everything, and.
Speaker 3 (01:01:55):
She'd be having the latest on your things.
Speaker 4 (01:01:58):
Just the latest with Lauren la Rowe sometimes you have facts,
sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit
of everything on the Breakfast.
Speaker 3 (01:02:05):
Class talk to me.
Speaker 20 (01:02:08):
Jez sat down with a bitch of TD Jakes for
his podcast Next Chapter, and they had a conversation in
full about his life and some of the things that
he's been through. But Jesz opened up a lot about
his divorce and what he learned. So let's take a
listen to Gezi on what he learned from his marriage
and his divorce.
Speaker 6 (01:02:25):
What did you learn from it?
Speaker 31 (01:02:27):
I learned I was a great husband, I got a
beautiful daughter out of the situation. So there's no regrets there.
But I learned a lot about myself. I learned about,
you know, my prefaces for things, the type of space
that I need, type of moments that I need to
decompress about certain things. And this just unselfish nature that
(01:02:48):
I was selfish in my prior life, and I think
just going forward in life, it just taught me how
to like give someone else grace and accidentally listen to
understand rather than just to listen to reply. Because when
you're sharing the life with somebody, you know, it's almost
(01:03:08):
like you don't become one. But this is a partnership, right,
and so for me, it's almost like I've never experienced
anything like that.
Speaker 20 (01:03:17):
Yeah, So there are there's a you know, conversation now
around this clip because people are trying to figure out
because he says, you know, I felt like I was
a great husband, and people were upset to hear him
say that because it ended in a divorce. But what now,
what I this is what I think people are missing
because there was another part of the interview where he
talks about what he learned, which I thought was actually
(01:03:37):
really powerful and it was a lot of accountability on
his part. People are missing that. You know, you go
through things, you learn and you find out what you
did good, what you did bad. Let's take a listen
to Gezi on what he says he would do differently.
Speaker 6 (01:03:48):
I would definitely take my time.
Speaker 31 (01:03:49):
I've learned now that friendship is the biggest key to anything.
I mean, I think when you become friends with someone
and you're like really invested in the friendship and just
builds a different type of foundation. I would make sure
that the community is as strong as the foundation, because
it takes a community like to keep you know, to
keep you accountable, and have people that you can process
(01:04:12):
with to be honest with you. I didn't have a
lot of great examples of relationships. And I do want
to say this though, because I felt like when people
hear me speak about like what I went through with
my mom and all this stuff, They're like, oh, you
went into a relationship with marriage with mommy issues. I
had been working on that stuff, so that had nothing
to do with my timeline with my marriage. It was
(01:04:34):
a humbling experience to have to like make sure that
you're present enough to hear what somebody else is right there.
Speaker 6 (01:04:41):
Should be no judgment there. He's right.
Speaker 3 (01:04:43):
Well, did the good brother Jeez learn that doctor Gumar
was right? Talk about that?
Speaker 4 (01:04:48):
When I talk about that, Did he learn that a
lot of black women around him were right? Because a
lot of black women were saying he should have been
with a system. Not saying there's anything wrong with the
relationship that he was in. I'm just saying that when
he speaks about community and things of that nature, sounds
like he's saying doctor Lumar was.
Speaker 5 (01:05:03):
It sounds like, sounds like you need to say he's
working on himself right because he's talking about the fact
that he was he was selfish in a relationship.
Speaker 3 (01:05:11):
And things like that. I m say, you should be
with a black woman that.
Speaker 10 (01:05:16):
Things.
Speaker 20 (01:05:16):
But I heard that when I heard this part of it,
I said, oh, he realized that he didn't need to
be there, like absolutely.
Speaker 2 (01:05:22):
And his last name Jenkins.
Speaker 4 (01:05:24):
You see what I'm saying. You know, Jenny Jenkins never
sounded it's crazy. I mean, it sounded like, oh, Jenny Jenkins,
you expect one presentation in the room, but.
Speaker 5 (01:05:33):
Then you know Jos like my marriage, he sounds like
I mean, he said he needs to work on himself
and he was a lot selfish, and he had to
be more uh in that relationship, more open, right talk
about things that's not just he said he wasn't I
call it right fighting? Right fighting is you just want
to be right in a relationship and you don't want
(01:05:54):
to listen. And he said he had to go, that's
not what we heard.
Speaker 7 (01:05:56):
We heard.
Speaker 13 (01:05:59):
You live.
Speaker 3 (01:06:00):
You know, get black and you whatever you are, I'm black, sir.
Speaker 14 (01:06:06):
He just learned how he just learned learned and marriage
that is not just about him. I don't think that
he you know, was saying anything else. It's just like, okay,
oh yeah, this thing is about not it's not just me.
Speaker 10 (01:06:16):
It's a union. It's like me and you.
Speaker 14 (01:06:17):
I gotta be emotionally intelligent enough to care about how
you feel too.
Speaker 3 (01:06:23):
You know, you should have been a black woman.
Speaker 4 (01:06:25):
You know what else, It's funny every time GZ does
these kinds of interviews, because I remember when he did
it with Neil Long too, and I did a Bishop TDJS.
I get a bunch of people hitting me, a bunch
of ladies that I know why you don't hook.
Speaker 3 (01:06:35):
Me up with GZ damn because some type of match
in these sentence because he sounds.
Speaker 20 (01:06:42):
Very accountable, very mature, very grown, very like you know,
and it's not given snow man, No, it's given.
Speaker 10 (01:06:49):
H No, it's not. What's his name?
Speaker 3 (01:06:53):
What you mean, what's his name? His name Jay Jenkibs.
Speaker 2 (01:06:56):
It's Jay Jenkins.
Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
Real, it's given, yes, given, Jake Jenkins.
Speaker 22 (01:07:02):
I know.
Speaker 2 (01:07:04):
Jay Jenkins.
Speaker 20 (01:07:05):
Yeah, because he's even talking to here about like his
finances and learning what to do with the finances and
and what differently dating wise, he he's going to do
this summer around, you know, as.
Speaker 10 (01:07:14):
He person, he's very calm, I relaxed.
Speaker 3 (01:07:18):
God damn man, well you married and you definitely what
you're doing. She's in a relationship.
Speaker 20 (01:07:34):
You said they brought up over Jesus well and the
next that is crazy because if we was down in him,
you'd be like you eight black men and blah blah blah,
and then we like shout j.
Speaker 10 (01:07:47):
He's you made some mistake you learned from me. It's
like y'all brooked up.
Speaker 3 (01:07:52):
I just want you to know. You know, when you
get somebody a gift and they love the gift. Morning had.

Speaker 10 (01:08:56):
Days called donkey of the day.
Speaker 2 (01:08:57):
And it really caught me off to day.
Speaker 3 (01:09:02):
To day to day.

That's crazy, right, How's somebody gonna get mad at me

a man named Dominique Goodman. First thing's first rest in
piece of that brother, Dominique Man. Let's go to w
SBB TV for the report. Police's why I don't argument
with people, man, I advise anybody on that argle nobody.
Speaker 32 (01:09:41):
That's advice from a boat angles customer after he learned
why the fast food restaurant was closed, I told him
an employee here is accused of killing the father.
Speaker 12 (01:09:50):
Of his coworker and the store's parking lot.
Speaker 32 (01:09:53):
Maurice Evans faces murder, aggravated assault, and selling the possession
of a firearm during a crime, and the death Dominique Goodman.
Speaker 12 (01:10:01):
Paul Meto.
Speaker 32 (01:10:02):
Police say a manager sent Evans home for the day
Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 12 (01:10:06):
Officers say, instead of going home, Evans waited for about
an hour for Goodman to arrive.
Speaker 3 (01:10:12):
And when the guy got out, he got out shooting.
Speaker 32 (01:10:14):
Marlene Lately says she is a family friend of the Goodmun's.
She says Goodman's daughter works at the restaurant and called
her father for help after getting into a dispute with Evans.
Speaker 12 (01:10:25):
Goodman then came to the restaurant to check.
Speaker 6 (01:10:27):
On his daughter.
Speaker 3 (01:10:28):
See very protective his children, just like anybody would be.
Speaker 12 (01:10:31):
She never expected it to end with him dead.
Speaker 3 (01:10:36):
Why why?
Speaker 6 (01:10:36):
Why? Why?
Speaker 13 (01:10:37):
Why?
Speaker 4 (01:10:37):
Rest in peace? Dominique Goodman Again, Man, you know I
got four daughters. My daughter comes to me and tells
me you picking on her. You know she had a
dispute with a grown man. I gotta come high, let
you about it, okay, And now I'm dead because you
lack emotional intelligence. I haven't read in this story or
heard in this story where Dominique had a gun. I
haven't read in this story where he was aggressive. I
don't know what was said to this twenty five yeard
(01:11:00):
old man Maurice Evans by Dominique. But I know that
whatever it was, it wasn't worth Dominique being unna live
for it. And it's not worth Maurice having a murder charge.
I love bow Jangles, Okay. I had a bowl berry
biscuit the weekly Thanksgiving ordered two. Actually, okay, I only
ate one because that's about three fifty three hundred and
seventy calories.
Speaker 3 (01:11:17):
But the moral of the story is bot Barry Biscuits
ain't dying for you, man. Okay, both Jangles ain't worth
dying over you.
Speaker 4 (01:11:24):
A manager at bow Jangles, a manager at a restaurant period,
a manager had a fast food change.
Speaker 3 (01:11:28):
Managers at restaurants and fast food.
Speaker 4 (01:11:30):
Chains must hear and take customer and employee complaints seriously.
Speaker 3 (01:11:36):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:11:36):
Managers are the first line of defense for the culture
of any establishment, not just culture, productivity and legal risk.
Speaker 3 (01:11:42):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:11:43):
I don't know what you said to this man's daughter,
but what if what you said was liable and her
father coming to talk to you about it enabled you
to see a different perspective, change your behavior and shift shifts,
some shifts some things around before you and bo Jangles
got sued.
Speaker 6 (01:11:56):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:11:56):
All you had to do, young man, was listening to
what his father's complaints were and move on. But no,
you decided to grab a pistol and shoot and kill
this man for what we gotta shed our fragile eagles.
Speaker 3 (01:12:10):
People.
Speaker 4 (01:12:10):
It's twenty twenty five. All right, this is the year
of the snake. Twenty twenty five was the year of snake.
I don't know if y'all know that. Okay, the snake
year means shedding. Okay, you shed all that bad energy,
bad behavior. This is about transformation and new beginnings.
Speaker 3 (01:12:23):
And it's a nine year.
Speaker 6 (01:12:24):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:12:24):
Two plus two plus five equals nine. This is an
ending's year, Okay, a karmic completion year. And boy, oh boy, Maurice,
have you just embarked on a new beginning called prison?
Speaker 6 (01:12:35):
All right?
Speaker 4 (01:12:36):
Now, there was a part of me that initially thought,
this is why we got to teach our kids to
stand up for themselves. But I don't know how old
his daughter was. What if she was sixteen and the
manager Maurice's twenty five. She went home to tell her
daddy about this grown man picking on her, so he
pulled up, you know, even if she was sixteen and
knew how to stand up for herself. Clearly, this dude, Maurice,
who's unstable and might have ended up harming the young
(01:12:57):
lady in somewhere. You just never no nowadays, and this
is why everyone should just mind their business. I agree
with the brother that was talking at the beginning of
the thing. Play that play the clip again, right, that's when.
Speaker 6 (01:13:09):
Here's why I don't argue with people. Man.
Speaker 33 (01:13:11):
I'll advise anybody on that argle nobody.
Speaker 4 (01:13:14):
Stop right there that I don't argue with people unless
it's on the radio or on the podcast. Okay, mind
your business, Mind you black owned business. Mind the business
that pays you. Managers shouldn't be picking on employee.
Speaker 3 (01:13:25):
Okay. The only thing you should be telling that employee
to do is their job.
Speaker 4 (01:13:29):
If you get complaints from employees, employees, parents, customers, just
listen to the complaints and adjust accordingly. You do not
grab your pistol and kill them for complaining about whatever
they was complaining about. And the fact I even have
to say that is nuts. But welcome to the current
world we live in. Please let me ma give Maurice
Evans the biggest he hull.
Speaker 10 (01:13:48):
Hei ha heih You stupid mother?
Speaker 16 (01:13:51):

Speaker 33 (01:14:54):
Yeah it someday is better than others, for sure. But
we're still pushing, man. You still push.
Speaker 4 (01:15:01):
When I think about you, I think about you. You
know you had you had two you know, legends parents.
Right when did you first realize that that wasn't normal?
Speaker 23 (01:15:11):
Uh?
Speaker 33 (01:15:11):
In school, like kindergarten for real, Like I was always
type I ain't never really tell people in school, like
I just go to school and just be Mike. But
if I get in trouble or anything, and my mama
has to come up to the school, like the teacher
be done seeing my parents, so she knows who she is,
but she gonna wait to in front of the whole
(01:15:32):
class like such and such a mama. And I might
say yes, I might say no, and then like the
whole class or no, and then they're gonna ask they mama,
and it just be a whole little thing.
Speaker 6 (01:15:44):
So yeah, that's why I realized that.
Speaker 3 (01:15:47):
I was growing up. Did you grow up?
Speaker 5 (01:15:48):
I don't want to say normal because we had two
iconic stars where you always on the road I was
growing up.
Speaker 33 (01:15:54):
No, it was it was uh normal at times. So
like in my earlier years, I went with my mama
like I was, you know, with Grandma Saw. I'm saying Columbus,
South Carolina, they do three to met for sure, And
you know my mama came and got me from Columbia
when I was about twelve or thirteen, moved me to Atlanta.
(01:16:15):
So when I first moved to Atlanta, that was like
a super culture. So I can't like, yeah about out
here got money, like we was staying right like two
those now for pat Man Jones and he was turned
like so it was normal. But I tried to be
as normal as I could. But then when people started
figuring it out, it was just doing extra stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:16:36):
You went back to Columba. Did you go to usc
on my trip? Nah?
Speaker 6 (01:16:39):
Oh no, I go back to Columbia just to visit.
I probably got like a three day limit in Columbia.
Speaker 4 (01:16:49):
What's one lesson your father taught you about like artistry,
and then one lesson your mother taught you about this?
Speaker 1 (01:16:55):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (01:16:57):
My daddy, like we didn't never really.
Speaker 33 (01:17:00):
We sometimes we would discuss like like music notes and
music theory, but we didn't really discuss stuff like that.
He really put me on like mindset, things like that's
how you need to be with your business. Is how
you need to be with your team, Like, it's how
you need to be with your mental when you get overwhelmed.
Speaker 6 (01:17:17):
Things like that. And my mama she ain't have to
she ain't have to show me nothing like I seen it.
Speaker 3 (01:17:22):
Like my mama was like.
Speaker 33 (01:17:26):
She'll be in the hospital and get out the hospital
that night and go to go do the show and
nobody knows. Wow, you know what I'm saying. She was
a real soldier gangst so she ain't have to say nothing.
I was watching, I was living it with her, you
know what I'm saying.
Speaker 20 (01:17:39):
And I saw your video that you posted on your
Instagram and you just well, first of all, I just
want to say, why don't you speak at their funerals?
It you just had there's still like such a joy
there or something that I didn't understand. I've never been
through what you've been through, but I don't know if
you can kind of like talk us through. When we're
seeing you, you're like making everybody laugh and you're with
(01:17:59):
your feeling and it's the push ups and y'all just
having a good time. I'm like, how is he able to,
you know, do that for everybody in a situation he's in.
Speaker 33 (01:18:07):
I mean, that's that's my personality. Like I'm not a complainer,
you know what I'm saying. I'm not like a woe
is Me guy, And I'm always trying to like bring
in the vibes, you know what I'm saying. So in
a moment like this when everything be morbid and dark,
like I'm gonna make everybody laugh, right, you know what
(01:18:27):
I'm saying, because that's how my mama was, Like she
was so funny, like she's the funny person, you know,
but she ain't telling no jokes, you know. So I
just I just always try to keep it light, man.
And you know, even at the funerals, like you know,
not for nothing, the funeral be for the living, they
don't be for the dead. They gone already. So you know,
(01:18:48):
let's let's laugh and talk about the good times. It's like,
you know, as much as we can.
Speaker 4 (01:18:53):
You know what, It's interesting me I can tell how
much faith you have in God because you know, when
you first started the conversation, you said, I mean they
in a better place, like if you a true believe
that's really that really.
Speaker 6 (01:19:06):
Yeah, nah, this a man.
Speaker 33 (01:19:09):
When when they when they when they leave here, you
you you really like, as their son, I think I'm
really seeing how much they was actually shouldering on the
day to day like you know, especially being the music
being and my mama and have been there since forever ago,
and my dad did the same thing, so you know,
ship from the label to label. By the time you
(01:19:30):
get the twenty twenty five, the business be all messed up.
You know what I'm saying. You know, you you try
to fix it and work on it, but they just
unfortunately run out of time. So now you know, I'm
fighting that fight for him. So I think it's I'm like, damn,
y'all were doing it every day like this was y'all
was battling with and still going to work and still
dealing with my on top of it.
Speaker 6 (01:19:51):
I can't cut up, sorry, but yeah, man, they were
they were some soldiers.
Speaker 5 (01:19:56):
Man, what gave you the music? I don't want to
see what gave you the music? But when did you
say I want to start singing? When did you know
you had that you that you could say.
Speaker 33 (01:20:03):
When I when I when I moved to Atlanta and
uh singing the rich kids or turned they were they
were just a little bit older than me and they
had the hottest, the hottest thing in Atlanta. I'm like, oh,
this was going on, man, you know I started I
still was really running from me. But maybe like I
was fifteen sixteen, my Mama bought a whole studio set
(01:20:23):
up for her in the house, and I ain't never
use it. So I started going down there recording myself,
figuring it out, and before you know, I did about
fifty sixty songs I don't win and play her something.
She actually really loved it, you know what I'm saying.
So when she did that, she just put the battery
in my back. I was just going hard from there.
And what did your dad say about your music? Because
(01:20:45):
they said he's a He was a hard critique with
the music. Nah, for sure, Like I'm not gonna lie,
just be real with you. My my daddy didn't really
embrace it and say go ahead and go crazy something.
He didn't do that till after my mom pass Yeah,
like he ain't. He never really wanted me doing music
(01:21:06):
because everything he went through with the business, you know
what I'm saying, He was like, soon, I don't want you,
you know what I'm saying. But it's like, man, probably
I ain't.
Speaker 6 (01:21:15):
I ain't.
Speaker 33 (01:21:16):
Man if I'm gonna work in the wild, like I don't,
I'm tired of the well side of the car center
like on cold you know what I'm saying. But as
my mom passed. He really tapped in. He was like
very impressed, you know what, And that's all I ever
really wanted anyway, just just him here.
Speaker 3 (01:21:36):
How do you call about your own identity? I still
acknowledging the legacy.
Speaker 6 (01:21:40):
You come from.
Speaker 33 (01:21:42):
That's that's been my batter all my life. But I
can't do nothing but be me. Like when you when
you hear my music, it's like you can hear them
in it, but it's still me. I'm doing a whole
different thing, and I ain't trying to battle them or
trying to live up to what they did. They already
did it. They don'et went went to the mountatime. I'm
on my own journey, you know, say Twain, and I can't.
(01:22:06):
I can't run from who I am, and I ain't
trying to. But I'm not trying to. I can't compete
with that, and I don't want to.
Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
Did you do records with them with your parents?
Speaker 33 (01:22:15):
Yeah, my mama last album, me and her, Me and
her got a song together, Me and my mama and
my sister Diamond, we have a song together that I'm released.
Me and my part never got to work together, though.
I think that's I like no one regret. We ain't
never get to do nothing. Yeah, me and my mom
for sure.
Speaker 10 (01:22:35):
I saw you also talk about the you know, the
time that you spent with your dad.
Speaker 20 (01:22:39):
It was like a week or a couple of weeks
that you guys got so and just after your mom
passed away, the time that you guys are spending together,
and you said you finally saw your parents as just
like people because there was a lot of things that
I guess you had one way in your mind. And
then when you and your dad spent that time after
your mom passed away, you saw him so differently.
Speaker 6 (01:22:57):
So yeah, man, you know my dad, he moved in
a certain way. You know. It was like and I
used to always think you just be an istra.
Speaker 33 (01:23:09):
But when we were did my mother's funeral, we had
to repass and my dad was in the city the
whole day. So he hit me like some I'm gonna
put up and pull up and pull up.
Speaker 6 (01:23:19):
But he didn't.
Speaker 33 (01:23:20):
He didn't show up the whole funeral. And then the
whole repass happened here and show up e So I'm like, man,
late again, you know what I'm saying. But he pulled
up like at the last possible second at the repast,
and he came straight to me, and instead of my
instead of my family in South Carolina treating him like
(01:23:40):
a regular person here for the funeral, they all went
mobbed him, like you justin bieb or something. Yeah, And
I'm like, it's a lot of my family that did that.
I don't to this day, you know what I'm saying,
because it's like, man, we just put my mom in
the ground.
Speaker 6 (01:23:56):
So when I seen that, I said, oh, wow, you understood.
Speaker 33 (01:24:00):
This is why he this is why he be moving
in this type of a mantaer because it's like he
ain't want to even make it about him.
Speaker 6 (01:24:05):
He just wanted to be there for me. You know
what I'm saying, How did.
Speaker 3 (01:24:09):
Did you talk to any of your family about that?
And you just just like, you know what action speak.
Speaker 6 (01:24:12):
I don't want to talk. Yeah, I don't talk. They
showed their ass with that one.
Speaker 33 (01:24:18):
He was dealing with cancer at that time, so Wayne
and I ain't looking back at the pictures, it's like, yeah,
he probably was, but I ain't even know, Like I
ain't had no idea, Like I ain't I ain't never
seen my daddy with al meant nothing.
Speaker 6 (01:24:32):
So when they came to that situation, it was it
just it shocked everybody. It definitely shocked me. I ain't.
Speaker 33 (01:24:38):
I ain't never seen my dad's sick or nothing. So
you found out like the rest of the world, damn enough,
like down there, Like, I know, I knew, I knew
he was battling with it, but I didn't know how
bad it was.
Speaker 3 (01:24:50):
Did you get a chance to, like, yeah, say your
good byes and everything.
Speaker 33 (01:24:53):
Yeah, man, spent the last down there, like the last
week together. You know, I was up there with him
and were just just talking and laughing and listening to music.
And you know, I ain't I ain't really wanted to
want him to see see me sad or nothing like that.
So I was just like we you know, we're gonna
vibe out. Me and my little brother, my little sister.
(01:25:16):
We always there.
Speaker 3 (01:25:17):
You know, you don't got to answer this if you
don't want to do.
Speaker 4 (01:25:20):
What was your perspective, like, knowing that you had just
lost your mom earlier this year and now you spending
your last moments with your pop.
Speaker 3 (01:25:27):
Did you even look at it at last moments?
Speaker 23 (01:25:32):
Uh?
Speaker 33 (01:25:33):
Yeah, yeah, And I knew why I was there, you know,
but I don't know, man, that I think that was
just in my mind. I'm like, man, this just what's
going on in my life right now, Like like this
what's going on? I definitely can't question God, you know,
but I'm gonna just take this. I'm gonna really take
(01:25:54):
this time and cherish you.
Speaker 6 (01:25:55):
Know what I'm saying.
Speaker 33 (01:25:56):
And you know, i'm'a'm'a wipe my face up. I started
crying because I don't want him to start crying. And
you know, me and we in the were listening to
his music, were listening in the Earth, Wind and Fire,
you know, like, yeah, it looked at me one time
he looked at me. He like he looking at me, like,
(01:26:17):
damn sign, I see where you at in life like you.
I remember when I was your age. I was I
was just getting ready to drop my second eye. Man,
I just seeing all the pressure that was on me.
I was like, I'm looking at you and like I
see you know what I'm saying. So I don't know
it was I was just being there, being in that moment.
Speaker 20 (01:26:37):
And you have your song A Dove Sore that is
a dedication to your mom and your dad. At what
point did you start writing that song, like after your
mom passed away, Like when were you okay enough to
try and put things in music in further with your show.
Speaker 6 (01:26:50):
It's crazy.
Speaker 33 (01:26:53):
I was in the studio making that song probably about
two days before I got the call about my daddy.
So when I was making originally making the song, it
wasn't even about It wasn't even about my dad. Is
really about my mama the first part. But I was
getting writer's block on it.
Speaker 6 (01:27:11):
So I did that.
Speaker 33 (01:27:13):
Probably two days later. I got the call like you
needed to clean like dots, like you need to get
your ass up there. So I went up to New York,
did that, and it came back the Atlanta. I was
working on it, but I couldn't. I couldn't really come
up with the words. So after we did the funeral
and I can't, I came back, like probably the night
before I flew out to come back home after the funeral,
(01:27:37):
I finally like broke the writer's blocking, was able to
finish the song. So, yeah, man, that I don't be
working that song for the last month for real.
Speaker 20 (01:27:46):
And you said only your song, you say, I know.
God had a chuckle when I told him, I plan. Yeah, man, man,
what were your original plans.
Speaker 6 (01:27:56):
Definitely definitely wouldn't going to two funerals this year, right,
uh with uh?
Speaker 33 (01:28:01):
Now, So my mama passed the morning after my birthday
when they you know, she had a show on my birthday.
And you know, for the last year or two, I've
been opening up for my mom on the show, so
I usually go with her just to make sure she
good first of all, you know, But for some reason,
(01:28:23):
she just didn't want me to come to this one.
You know, she told you that, yeah, And I was like,
right before she left, she like, son, you got your
own career, you're getting ready to do your rollout. You
don't need to come to this, you know, just stay home.
And I'm like, man, you sure, and she like, no,
I'm positive. But she made me come to all the
rehearsals for the show. But the day before she's like, no,
(01:28:43):
I don't want you to come. And you know at
the time in March, my p alrighty. He'll tell you like,
I had a whole all, I'm done roll out, got
my little budget together, and I was getting ready to
do that, and then the morning after everything changed. So
that's why that lyric come from, Like I had a plan,
but God had something different, like, nah, what you thinking.
Speaker 3 (01:29:07):
It ain't even about to be that, brother, because you
have been on you'd have been on the bus with her.
Speaker 6 (01:29:11):
Yeah, man, yeah, yeah, man.
Speaker 4 (01:29:16):
What's one conversation with your with your dad and mom
that changed your direction in life? Not even just musical,
just as a man.
Speaker 6 (01:29:24):
Man, My daddy.
Speaker 33 (01:29:25):
My daddy said to me one day, He's like, son,
you gotta choose your piece over everything.
Speaker 6 (01:29:31):
You know.
Speaker 33 (01:29:32):
I think it was a point in my life where
I was just being poured in so many different ways,
and you know, it was it was it was draining me. Like,
you know, my mama been dealing with you know, her health,
and I've been essentially like a caretaker for her for
the last four or five years.
Speaker 6 (01:29:50):
You know, people didn't know that, and you know she
did a good.
Speaker 33 (01:29:54):
Job of hiding it, but you know, there was a
lot of serious situations and you know I had to,
you know, sacrifice a lot, you know, and I'll do
it again, you know, because that's my mama. I know
she'll do it for me. But you know, yeah, I
was just talking to my dad and he was like, man,
(01:30:14):
you know, you do what you do for your MoMA,
But all the rest of that. Man, you gotta choose
your piece of everything, and I really started implementing that
and help me a lot.
Speaker 4 (01:30:23):
Ten years from now. What do you want people to
say about you that has nothing to do with your parents.
Speaker 33 (01:30:30):
I just want people to say that I was a
genuine guy, or I helped them some type of way,
or you know, a lot of people being hitting me
like throughout this process, like man, I don't know how
you doing, and like, man, I ain't doing nothing but
a whole lot of crying and praying. Like if you know,
if I could be a if you can look at
(01:30:51):
me and think you can get through because I'm getting through,
then you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (01:30:55):
That's fine.
Speaker 3 (01:30:57):
Right there, you have it, Twain, It's the breakfast Club.
Speaker 12 (01:31:01):
Good morning morning.
Speaker 5 (01:31:02):
Everybody's DJ, Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy.
Speaker 3 (01:31:06):
We are the breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest
with Lauren.
Speaker 10 (01:31:08):
Lauren becoming a straight fast.
Speaker 2 (01:31:12):
She gets them. Somebody that knows, somebody gets to detail.
Speaker 10 (01:31:15):
I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 3 (01:31:18):
She'd be having the latest on this.
Speaker 6 (01:31:21):
Lad The Latest with Lauren la Rosa.
Speaker 4 (01:31:23):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you
have a little bit of everything.
Speaker 26 (01:31:26):
So it's the latest on the Breakfast Club Talk.
Speaker 20 (01:31:30):
So Howard Stern had to address some accusations that Kim
Kardashian made last week on episode seven of their reality
show So Got Come on Hulu. They have a big
partnership with Hulu. So Kim K was on the show
when she was talking about her twenty sixteen Parish robbery
when she was robbed in her hotel room for all
the jewelry, and she alleges that Howard Stern basically didn't
(01:31:53):
believe her and made a whole mockery of it on
his show. Let's take a listen to Kim K talking
about Howard Stern.
Speaker 8 (01:31:57):
Howard Stern was like famously mocking it all the time
and saying that it was just I'm sick and it's
such a joke and I made it all up.
Speaker 9 (01:32:06):
I remember, he was so defiant about it.
Speaker 3 (01:32:10):
Okay, yes, okay.
Speaker 20 (01:32:12):
So she said this, and she's also said something similar
around Kanye West as well too. But so she said this,
and then Howard Stern said, oh no, we're not gonna
let that fly, not at all, because that is not
what I say. So he responds with his original comments,
because you know his show was recorded. He responds with
his original comments. Let's take a listen to the original comments.
Speaker 23 (01:32:31):
If this woman was robbed at gunpoint by a bunch
of dudes and they threw her in a bathtub and
tied her up or whatever they did, I mean.
Speaker 3 (01:32:39):
That is that is frightening.
Speaker 23 (01:32:42):
If it is a farce game, really they should go
to jail for that.
Speaker 12 (01:32:46):
Well, I don't believe it is.
Speaker 14 (01:32:48):
But you know, there were no security cameras in the area,
so there's no footage.
Speaker 6 (01:32:54):
Of what went on.
Speaker 3 (01:32:55):
The one time the Kardashians don't have a camera something.
Speaker 2 (01:32:58):
Yeah, it's something really going on, something real.
Speaker 3 (01:33:02):
We live in an era where you should question everything.
Speaker 4 (01:33:05):
Yeah, especially because and everything you see nowadays because of
the era that we live in. And she's a reality
show start, So why wouldn't you think everything of the
story she said mockery.
Speaker 5 (01:33:14):
I thought I was gonna hear him be like, Oh,
I thought it was going to be something. He basically said.
He literally, if it happens, it's frightening, and I feel
sorry for But he was like, something doesn't sound right,
what's wrong?
Speaker 3 (01:33:25):
But he said something said.
Speaker 14 (01:33:28):
Robin said, I don't think it's you know, I don't
think it's untrue, and he said I don't either.
Speaker 3 (01:33:31):
He literally yes, He said, if it happened, is tragic,
if it was a farce.
Speaker 20 (01:33:36):
And let's just to be clear because in another episode
of The Kardashians, she brought up her ex. She doesn't
say Kanye West, but during that time she was with Kanye,
and she says that even her ex accused her of
faking the robbery for a TV show. Around that time,
people did believe that Kim had faked the robbery for
the show because they thought that it was very ironic
that there were no cameras with her and that there
was no security with her, knowing that she had all
(01:33:58):
the jewelry in the room and you know, all the
things that people knew she would be.
Speaker 3 (01:34:02):
I had dropped her off and made sure she was
in our room, so her security.
Speaker 20 (01:34:05):
Made sure she was in her room and then went
out with her sisters, and which wasn't unnormal for them
because the security guard would secure the whole family. But
people were just saying right, so yes, But people were
people at that time, and a lot of outlets.
Speaker 10 (01:34:16):
It wasn't just Howard Stern.
Speaker 20 (01:34:17):
A lot of outlets were just trying to put the
pieces together and saying how far fetched this was, and
they didn't believe her.
Speaker 10 (01:34:23):
Some people didn't believe her.
Speaker 20 (01:34:24):
But Howard Stern comes back in on his show and
basically says, if I had something to say, I've said
a lot of crazy things.
Speaker 6 (01:34:29):
I get to it.
Speaker 10 (01:34:30):
Let's take a listen to Howard Stern.
Speaker 23 (01:34:32):
On the latest episode of The Kim Kardashian Show. She
accused me of saying that she faked her Paris robbery attempt,
and she's very emotional about it. Fortunately, anyway, in this case,
our show is taped, so we went back and looked
up what I said, and nothing could be further from
the truth. Now tell me if I'm wrong. I would
characterize that discussion as a very fair assessment that some
(01:34:54):
people are saying it's fake, which was true, and we said,
we don't think it's fake.
Speaker 6 (01:34:58):
We think that she was.
Speaker 23 (01:35:00):
She went through something horrible. Some guys came into her
room and threw in a bath having pointed a gun
at her, and I said, that's really frightening. By the way,
let me say something, I have said so many awful
things in my career. You don't need to make up stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:35:13):
And also the fact that she put words in Howard's
mouth crazy for TV is exactly why Howard thought that
the robbery was probably a storyline as well.
Speaker 10 (01:35:22):
Now, y'all see where I was getting bringing this in.
Speaker 20 (01:35:24):
Because of all the people that you're going to say
said something, Howard Stern is not the one nobody at all.
Speaker 10 (01:35:30):
He gonna clear enough instantly or repeat what he said,
so you know.
Speaker 3 (01:35:33):
That's not what I was saying.
Speaker 4 (01:35:35):
And the fact that she put words in Howard Stern's
mouth for TV is exactly why Howard thought that the
robbery was for TV as well.
Speaker 14 (01:35:41):
And then all the create storyline right right, And then
all the people who did say it was fake like publicly,
and you didn't go at them, but you went.
Speaker 10 (01:35:50):
At Howard Stern who didn't say it was fake.
Speaker 3 (01:35:52):
But it was a lot of people that did well,
by the way, just asking questions too. By the way,
Kim did that for exactly this.
Speaker 4 (01:35:59):
We want to use Howard is this startline because I
know how we're going to go back and talk about
it or it'll become a talking piece on the other show.
Speaker 3 (01:36:05):
Because I had to ask you, what what what? What
is that?
Speaker 23 (01:36:08):
What is y.
Speaker 10 (01:36:11):
Yeah, it's been long, right, it used to come right.
Speaker 2 (01:36:14):
No, they were wrong.
Speaker 20 (01:36:15):
They had that big relationship with Ryan Seacrest on E.
But yeah, So speaking of other things in the news
that might be real, might not be U. Joe Tacopino,
Wendy William's attorney, was on Nightline and he's saying that
she'll be out of her guardianship potentially this year, which
is like, we only have weeks left of this year.
Speaker 10 (01:36:32):
Let's take a listen to Joe.
Speaker 16 (01:36:33):
What's the plan you have to get her out of
the guardianship and when can we expect.
Speaker 26 (01:36:37):
Some movement in court?
Speaker 12 (01:36:38):
The plan is this, there are guardianship attorneys and we're
watching and waiting.
Speaker 3 (01:36:43):
They've a short Wendy by years.
Speaker 6 (01:36:45):
Then she'll be out of guardianship.
Speaker 3 (01:36:46):
No guardianship should feel like a.
Speaker 16 (01:36:47):
Sentence, and honestly, when these does, when these feels like
a center.
Speaker 3 (01:36:52):
She said it was eighteen thousand dollars a month she
was paying this prossiblity.
Speaker 26 (01:36:55):
Imagine just imagine her money, not the state's money, her money.
Speaker 5 (01:37:00):
But if she does get free of this, is there
still going to be somebody that's watching over her to
make sure that everything is quote unquote Okay, So.
Speaker 20 (01:37:06):
From what I was told once I saw this, because
that's a pretty tight timeline to you know, say, I
was told that if that even happens this year, and
it probably won't, yes, it would just be a limited guardianship,
so there would be somebody with her to still figure
out certain things like financial decisions. You know, she also
has like she's openly talked about dealing with substance abuse, right,
(01:37:27):
so someone checking in on her when it comes to that,
she'll be able to come and go like we've seen
her do you know, more recently, but there will be
somebody there. But from you know, the way that they're
angling this is that she's going to be one hundred
percent free, and I was told that that is not
what it's going to be.
Speaker 5 (01:37:40):
What'll be dope is is if you know, when she
was coming up, Charlemagne lived in her basement. Charlemagne kind
of returns to favor and allows her to live in
his basement, and he got a nice, nice.
Speaker 10 (01:37:52):
Finished, finished our basement.
Speaker 3 (01:37:54):
You put, win, I don't even have a business, that's right.
You have an addict.
Speaker 10 (01:38:00):
I've got no space for Wendy.
Speaker 14 (01:38:01):
I'm talking about a guest from yesterday. You no, you
don't line really fake.
Speaker 20 (01:38:10):
Matt Barnes decided to clear up again some rumors about
him paying an AI model sixty one thousand dollars because
you've showing extort them allegedly.
Speaker 10 (01:38:19):
Let's take a listen.
Speaker 19 (01:38:20):
I sat back dealing with personal real family healing and
making sure my kids are good and just trying to
get my life back in order, while I sat back
and watched the internet lie about me.
Speaker 3 (01:38:31):
The whole year, live for me being gay to me.
Speaker 19 (01:38:35):
Talking of showing an abortion to me, telling some girl
how to do a reality show. And then I get
back from Dubai and I get back and I see,
all of a sudden, I'm sewing an AI model or
I got played by AI models, and all these little
bottom feeding blogs pick it up. Shout out to the
ones that are real and know from the or at
least check you guys believe that I got played by
(01:38:56):
AI model. I'm suing them. You see someone like Gilbert,
And I had a conversation with Gilbert. He addressed the
bullet and it kind of was it from there and
caught fire. And I'm talking him bro like, after all
we've been through, Bro, tapping with me and see if
it's real, and he said, he apologized, didn't know it
was that deep. But y'all can't believe everything you love.
Speaker 10 (01:39:15):
So he didn't get got by y'all out he did.
It was just a girl from Instagram. You were about
to say something. I'll explain to us.
Speaker 4 (01:39:21):
I don't know what none of the stories are, but
it's just because Matt Bondes is hot, you know what
I'm saying, that All the Smoke podcasts is hot. Like
I was watching the fight this weekend Lamar Roach versus
a Island Cruise and they had the All the Smoke
logo in the ring.
Speaker 6 (01:39:37):
It is what it is.
Speaker 4 (01:39:38):
They had their logo in the ring too. But All
the Smokers is a hot podcast. And when you a
hot podcast, people are going to use you for content.
Speaker 6 (01:39:44):
That's just the way it is.
Speaker 4 (01:39:46):
So Matt should take that as a compliment that all
of these rumors and all this gossip has been about
been spreading about him all year.
Speaker 10 (01:39:51):
I think the only issue is that it affects his
family unit.
Speaker 20 (01:39:54):
Because he was saying, so there was a real girl
that him and his exdad like took a little break
from each other.
Speaker 6 (01:39:59):
He was with her.
Speaker 10 (01:40:00):
He posted a video about this back in November.
Speaker 20 (01:40:03):
He ended up paying that girl because when he got
back with his ex, who was pregnant at the time,
and he told her, she said, I'm going to release
these sex messages. So he paid her because he didn't
want it to come out, because it was a high
risk pregnancy and because of how hot things are with
him now. Everybody picks up his stuff, so he was
trying to, you know, clean it up, and it just
took its own life from there.
Speaker 10 (01:40:20):
But the girl is a real girl. He's said that
multiple times.
Speaker 20 (01:40:23):
That's why he's like, just ask me to fact shaw,
I'll tell you all what's going on, because he does
address a lot of his own stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:40:28):
Well, make sure you subscribe to all the smoke podcasts

Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yes she is, Jess. We're walking here like you extra
on power. Let's get to the front page news. What's
up to me?
Speaker 8 (04:19):
Good morning, Envy, Jess, and know you're just getting there, Charlamagne.
Speaker 9 (04:22):
How y'all doing this morning? Good morning?
Speaker 10 (04:25):
All right?
Speaker 8 (04:26):
So we start this morning in Pennsylvania, where President Trump
traveled to the Pocono Mountains to make the case that
he's already delivering lower case, lower prices and bigger paychecks,
even as many voters, though, say they are still filling
the squeeze. Now, speaking to about one thousand supporters at
the mount Airy Casino Resort, Truck pointed to the stock
market and for one K's as evidence that the economy
(04:48):
is gaining strength. But his biggest challenge last night was
the same one he always faces nationally, which is convincing
people that their everyday costs are actually going down. At
one minute, at one moment, he doubt played the idea
of affordability altogether, and moments later he said making America
affordable again was his greatest priority.
Speaker 9 (05:08):
Let's listen to some of his speech.
Speaker 11 (05:10):
Gave you high prices, they gave you the highest inflation
in history, and we're giving you we're bringing those prices
down rapidly, lower prices, bigger paychecks. You're getting lower prices,
bigger paychecks. We're getting inflation, we're crushing it, and you're
getting much higher wages. I mean, the only thing that
used it's really going up big. It's called the stock
(05:31):
market and you four oh one case. But they have
a new word. You know, they always have a hoax.
The new word is affordability. So they look at the
camera and they say, this direction is all about affordability.
But under Biden, real wages plummeted by three thousand dollars
(05:52):
a year.
Speaker 12 (05:53):
Under Trump, the typical.
Speaker 11 (05:54):
Factory worker has already seen their wages increased by more
than thirteen hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
They always staying in front of people who don't have
no stocks and point to the stock market. Okay, you
can't lie to people about what they're feeling in their pockets. Like,
go stand in front of some working class people and
try to convince them the economy is good.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
I bet that crowd reaction will be a lot different.
And you're right.
Speaker 8 (06:14):
The numbers they tell a very different story than what
Trump is saying. Most major polls show that voters still
feel financially stretched, and there's also government data that back
set up. The overall cost of living is still rising.
Energy prices are up over the past year, Inflation, which
had been easing, has crept back up following the tariffs
that Trump put in place, and on top of that,
employers have announced more than a million job cuts this year.
(06:37):
That's the highest level since the pandemic, adding to the
sense of unease that many families are already filling and
the polling that there's polling that makes that disconnect even clearer.
Speaker 9 (06:47):
There's a recent.
Speaker 8 (06:48):
Gallup poll that says that sixty eight percent of Americans
they say the economic conditions are getting worse, while only
twenty seven percent of people believe things are improving. Now,
that gap between what Trump is saying and what people
are feeling is becoming one of the defining challenges of
the upcoming election year, especially with affordability consistently ranking as
(07:08):
voter's top concern now.
Speaker 9 (07:10):
During that rally.
Speaker 8 (07:12):
Yesterday, Trump he also veered off on his economic message
several times, and turning his attacks on Congresswoman il hand Omar,
Somali immigrants, and a range of other unrelated issues and
comments that drew reactions from the crowd and also at
times shifted the tone.
Speaker 13 (07:29):
Of the rally.
Speaker 9 (07:31):
So we will continue to see what else.
Speaker 8 (07:33):
Comes from that meeting and as affordability dominates the national conversation.
There were two local races in Florida, or two local races,
one in Florida and one in Georgia that are showing
just how voters are feeling and responding to it.
Speaker 9 (07:47):
At the ballot box.
Speaker 8 (07:47):
So in Miami, a Democrat she just ended a thirty
year Republican streak to become the first woman mayor ever
elected in the city of Miami, Aileen Higgins. She campaigned
directly on affordability and immigration concerns. The feeding a Republican
endorsed by President Trump. And in Georgia, Democrats they flipped
a House seat in a district that Trump carried by
(08:09):
double digits. Eric Glistener, he asks the growing number of
special election wins by Democrats that they have picked up
this year. So clearly affordability, immigration very very key issues
for people in different states and different cities right now.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yes, but you know it's one thing.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
The campaign on affordability is another to get in office
and actually, you know, govern and make things more affordable.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
So that's the important thing.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Like, after you campaign on affordability and you know, you
win whatever election you know you were running for, once
you get in office, you have to have to fight
to make things more affordable.
Speaker 9 (08:42):
Absolutely definitely.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
And so we will see what happens with those two candidates.
A couple of special elections happening there and coming up
at seven. A holiday staple is getting more expensive this year.
It's reviving an age old debate. Will tell you what's
driving the price hike and what it means for your
bottom dollar.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
All right, thank you, Mimmy. Now everybody else get it
on the morning, Jessica Robin Moore, morning.

there and do the jobs of a construction work or
does put some respect on our pay and leave our
affordable wages alone.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
I agree with you. How many stars did he give you?
Speaker 15 (11:12):
He gave listen, he gave me one star reported me
telling me that I have a sense of some pictures
up in my car. Boober called me yesterday. I said, man,
what's going on? You gotta complain? I said, okay, and
I said I got a picture of my president, Barack
Obama and his wife. They said maybe I should take
it down. I said, maybe you should kiss my ass. R.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
I wonder what the policy for that is, though, because.
Speaker 15 (11:40):
They tell us to be neutral and stuff like that.
I said, there's no neutral about it. When you get
in my car and talking ignorant you and then you're
gonna call me out my name. Thank you, jes you
heard that you won't call me out my name. Put
some respect on my melanie.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
First of all, well, I'm I'm at at you that
you didn't matterge you, that you didn't call him a
cracker back, but also.
Speaker 3 (12:03):

Speaker 15 (12:05):
I call him an ignorant, bloney smelling damn Trump.
Speaker 7 (12:09):

If you want me to, I will.
Speaker 15 (12:15):
But I'm Trump borders. Y'all needs to stay in y'all.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Lane, you should have called it because you should have
called him. You should have called him a milk cricket.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
But also to look at the flip side, right, if
you would have gotten into a car and the person
had a bunch of magaparer for Neilia, how would you f.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
L I would have got in that car.
Speaker 15 (12:30):
I want to cancel that ride.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
So it's kind of the same thing. Yeah, yeah, but
he should.
Speaker 15 (12:35):
Have canceled it. He should have canceled it if he's
seen a beautiful black woman.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Hello damn cut the call off, playing like wow.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
I was gonna tell the baby she should download the
lift app, you know, just in case you want to go,
so she'd have some some other income coming in. But
also too, man, if you want to get where you're
going this mind you god damn business.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
You can't hold your political opinion for two seconds. You
know what I'm saying. You get in the car.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
You see Barack Obama picture, Michelle Obama picture, Shut that
hell up? You getting somebody call you see mac of
praff and shut the hell up. All like she said,
cancel the ride.
Speaker 14 (13:14):
I was gonna say, just get out like you you
I pull off and then you tell me that you
if you knew that I was gonna be black, you
would have canceled.
Speaker 10 (13:22):
You can always get out.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Now, yeah, get out right now.
Speaker 14 (13:24):
That's why if she said, if she did what she
said and dropped his ass off in the hood, good time.
Speaker 5 (13:29):
But I'm like self, if I got to get to
the airport, I ain't got time to mess with you.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
Just just get me there. I don't care, I don't
care what you got in. Just get the reality is
you don't know what's in the person's head. That's your heart,
you know what I'm saying, or trunk.

keeps coming up again, and a lot of the things
and a lot of the mess Okay, oh say nothing,
this is old Breakfast Club, but you know we're in
(18:07):
the mix.
Speaker 10 (18:07):
Okay.
Speaker 20 (18:07):
So Marlon Wayans has had to come on line and
basically clear up that he is not defending Diddy.
Speaker 10 (18:14):
Yesterday.
Speaker 20 (18:14):
I don't know if you guys saw it, but there
was a whole conversation about we're not going to watch
Scary Movie six and we're not this and we're not that,
because Marlon Wayan's was asked the question when he went
to the Cruise show about Diddy and the documentary right
so late last night. I woke up this morning and
I saw a video that he posted. Let's take a
listen to Marla Ways.
Speaker 12 (18:32):
Fifty and Puff of a long term beef.
Speaker 6 (18:35):
It's personal.
Speaker 21 (18:36):
It's between him and Puff, and before between him and Puff,
It's between both of them and God, just the way
Puff is down on.
Speaker 20 (18:42):
His loved Let's play Marlin response to backlash number two.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
I'm gonna make it abundantly clear.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
I'm not here defending Diddy.
Speaker 18 (18:52):
I am here because I got dragged into this because
somebody asked me a question and I had an opinion.
Nobody's wrong forgiving him opinion about any subject period.
Speaker 21 (19:03):
I'm not here defending Diddy. Don't let the narrative fool
you or get to you. Once again, somebody's creating narratives.
This is my point. So please look at the whole
clip that I did, and then look what happens with
the narrative and That's what I'm telling you, y'all.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
People, don't be sheep.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Use your brain.
Speaker 21 (19:23):
It's your freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and don't
ever let nobody bully you.
Speaker 12 (19:28):
Never don't let nobody bully you.
Speaker 6 (19:31):
You got me love a back to's trolling this troll.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
The narrative is you gotta let people go through whatever
it is that they're going through. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Marlin said that people are kicking Diddy while they're down,
So that makes makes people think about Diddy kicking Kathy
while she was down.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
But they're like, you know what, stay out of that one.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
Exactly right, exactly. He posted that video four hours ago.
Speaker 20 (19:50):
I was like, dang, they must have been on him too,
because it's like if he's in La it's like one
o'clock in the morning. I mean it was, but you
know he's he normally is like he gonna move on
about some things, like he gonna have a lot of
fun with it him play.
Speaker 10 (20:03):
That's what he's been doing.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
Now when to come to the money when it's trending,
don't watch what a scary movie six now?
Speaker 3 (20:09):
I want to come to the money. Let me fix
this right now.
Speaker 10 (20:11):
I get you well, plus.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
You got somebody staring to pot fifty curn the podcast guy.
Speaker 20 (20:16):
Yeah, both of them are so fifty and Marlon ways
had been going back and forth every since yesterday when
we left work online, and he said in his video
he's gonna get back to the trolling now. One of
the things that Marlin posted, he posted a video of
fifty cent up here at the breakfast club talking about
what kicked off a lot of fifty cents issue with Diddy.
Did he want to take Marlon? I mean, did he
want to take fifty cent shopping? Let's say, listen to
(20:38):
the fifty cent when he was here some years.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Ago, not fifth when you continuously called Puff gay? Is
that your relationships in Hollywood?
Speaker 22 (20:45):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
I don't call I don't call him gay.
Speaker 6 (20:47):
I said, let me read it.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Let me read Sorry, y'all can no longer help you guys.
Soon you will all be gay and happy. You are
all now left under leadership of Puffy. Daddy bought it in.
There's rainbows.
Speaker 12 (21:03):
I wonna say that because it's the drink champs.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Yes, yeah, he said something fabulous and he goes, yo, No,
but me and you we ain't party like we need
to party.
Speaker 17 (21:11):
What is he talking about and going on people saying
that to me, I get a little comfortable.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
I get uncomfortable.
Speaker 17 (21:18):
Like he said, he said something to me one time,
a long time ago at Chris Nighty's wedding.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
He told me, you take me shopping. I looked at him, like,
what up?
Speaker 6 (21:25):
What what you just say?
Speaker 17 (21:28):
Let me move, man, before I do something, you're gonna
make me mess up the wedding.
Speaker 20 (21:32):
Yeah, so Marla Wayns posted that fifty cent hasuposted Marlon Waynes.
Speaker 10 (21:36):
When you know he took the picture with the flag.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Why didn't Marlon post that?
Speaker 23 (21:39):
Like?
Speaker 10 (21:39):
Why did he? Yeah, they've been going back for for
all night.
Speaker 20 (21:42):
But he's basically saying, fifty cent, you need to explain this, Like, oh,
I get it now, you need to explain this.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
No, Puffy need to explain that what he did on
Breakfast Club, he did have to take fifty shopping.
Speaker 20 (21:50):
Yeah, but you know, Marlon Waynes is basically trying to
make it seem like you was with all the shopping things.
His caption said caption. His caption says, some people just
be lying. Come on, Curtis, stop if you.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Wantn't lie about that, though, said he said, I wanted
to take him shopping.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
He said that here on reference and.
Speaker 10 (22:05):
Then you have some things v AI.
Speaker 14 (22:06):
Now I said I did see some things DV because
I saw I don't know if it was real.
Speaker 10 (22:10):
That's why I think I sent it to you in
a d M.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
But it wasn't.
Speaker 10 (22:13):
It was somebody else that supposedly posted.
Speaker 14 (22:16):
Didn't Marlin posts fitny in like the hot tub with
Diddy or something?
Speaker 10 (22:21):
But is that AI. I don't know if this is
real or not.
Speaker 20 (22:24):
But he did post a photo of fifty cent and
Diddy in a hot tub. Diddy has a cigar in
his hand, and he says, just for the record, bro,
let's correct the narrative. Curtis rub a dub and then
he says stop. Now, fifty cent has also been going
in he posted that photo. I was telling you guys
about Marlin with the flag that you know, when he
came out talking.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
About waking up on the floors.
Speaker 14 (22:44):
I'm saying that he never went to a Diddy party.
But they're a picture of him with Diddy at a
party like they going.
Speaker 10 (22:49):
Back and forth. They've been going. They've definitely been going.
Speaker 20 (22:53):
But he spoke to us Weekly and he told US
Weekly that the way because people are using the trolling
back and forth that he does online and which we
all know fit to use this to be able to say, Okay,
this is why we can't believe fifty cent, because we
know that he has some animosity towards Diddy. But he
told US Weekly and exclusive that they published yesterday that
(23:13):
he went about this documentary completely different than how he
trolls online. He even revealed in the exclusive that he
spoke to Cassie and her husband and that she would
be pleased with the documentary. But he also says that
he had a conversation with Diddy and his son and
that originally Diddy was supposed to be a part of
this documentary and that didn't happen.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Also, I don't understand when people say things like you
can't believe fifty cent when it comes to this documentary.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
I was born in nineteen hundred and seventy eight.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Most of these stories, probably all ninety five percentity stories
we've heard about Diddy before, we just never saw them
package together, I said in a documentary.
Speaker 5 (23:47):
But not only that, fifty didn't speak on a documentary.
He didn't say one word in that documentary. He wasn't
even on the document work.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
With Wendy Williams. I've heard all of these stories a
million times, like this.
Speaker 5 (23:58):
Is new to this generation maybe, And Lauren knows that
they reached out to both sides of everybody on this documentary.
Not just decided that was against Diddy. They reached out
the side of the people that was for did he
just some people didn't want to speak exactly. Some people
wanted to speak. But a lot of these stories, Yeah,
we've heard of these stories.
Speaker 14 (24:14):
What did he say the sons was going to back?
I mean, what did did he say he talked to
Diddy and his son?
Speaker 10 (24:19):
He didn't say.
Speaker 20 (24:19):
He just says he says he hasn't spoken to Diddy
since he went through his case. I had communication with
them and his son or with his son. There was
a point when they were interested in being a part
of the doc because they wanted to show their perspective.
They were concerned about how things would be portrayed as
all he said. So I am trying to figure out
what that conversation was and when it happened and why
didn't they participate, and you know, they're really upset about it.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
So about did he couldn't speak like he was going
through a court case, so he could not speak.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
After, but he couldn't speak during that. The sons had
opportunity to talk. They should have talked because if you
got men on in the court case.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
No, I'm talking about these documentary after the young men
on the documentary saying Puffy touched the butt. Man, you
should be on there defending your dad's lonnor Okay, Laura
Rod said his butt got touched and woke up.
Speaker 10 (25:04):
So he tried to leave that out. He was trying
to leave it for us.
Speaker 24 (25:07):
He's been to figure it out.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
I know what happened. He said he was saw and
did he was laying next to him.
Speaker 20 (25:12):
Yeah, yeah, Well, ray J says, ray J put his j.
Ray J says he doesn't understand how men let that happen.
After he watched the documentary, Let's listen.
Speaker 25 (25:22):
As a journalist, you heard me say what I said,
and that's kind of what cranked this whole thing up.
Speaker 16 (25:26):
And then fast forward to the documentary.
Speaker 25 (25:28):
But just saying that they was getting taken bro multiple
times kept party, owe you.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Some money, yo? What the going on in this world?
Speaker 23 (25:38):
Bro?
Speaker 3 (25:40):
And I woke up with females in the bed.
Speaker 24 (25:43):
Then I woke up and Diddy was in the bed.
What was Diddy doing in the bed? Bro coming out?
Speaker 3 (25:54):
We're in her.
Speaker 10 (25:55):
I know what happened.
Speaker 16 (25:57):
I've been taking, I've.
Speaker 24 (25:58):
Been taking, and now I'm still here like nothing ever happened.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
I agree with Rajie.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
If Little Rod had gotten paid, would he be talking
about puppy touching his butt? If Kirk Burrows would have
gotten this twenty five percent, would he be talking about
puppy touching his butt?
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Correct? Allegedly? Allegedly, but I'm saying I don't know.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
But also what Rayj said is if somebody touched my
butt and I didn't like it, when I come back.
Speaker 10 (26:24):
Right and keep parting. I mean, if you've been in.
Speaker 14 (26:29):
But if somebody promised you you're gonna be super producer, but.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
You touched my bike, I mean, and I didn't like it.
The thing I'm not going to HiT's the thing with
brown men.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
If you tell me that you got you know, assaulted,
sexually assaulted, the next thing you should be telling me
is that you caught an assaultant battery would intend to
kill case, Okay, but.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
Even if you should, if you sawten, You're not that
type of individual. You're not gonna come back.
Speaker 20 (26:53):
Charlote MAInet be trying to hug you from the back,
and you show up to work the next day.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
You never try to hunt that man from the back
like this.
Speaker 10 (26:59):
You get up and walk behind his chair and here.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
You want to do your own record and so mine.
That ain't never happened.
Speaker 26 (27:04):
You saw him do that to me?
Speaker 3 (27:05):
I did not do that.
Speaker 20 (27:09):
We'll comeing in and try to hug all the time
I've seen you get up and walk over behind his chair,
especially when you got the tim.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
You can't hug me.
Speaker 5 (27:16):
We've known each other for a long time, but that's
our university, you know.
Speaker 10 (27:21):
That's what we used to say.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
That's my brother, and we came up in New York

You see this right come out as yay.
Speaker 10 (27:38):
That's where the journalist though. That's what he always has
been saying.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
I raided the fifty to bring back one of his
classic lines. Man, I heard Puffy touch your butt. You
need the T shirts fifth to remember. She said, you
can just say that all the time I heard Buffy
touch your butt.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Ain't nobody more consistant than Curtis Jackson. You hear me.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
He's like this all the time, not just in on
public private, be going for like all.

university leaders, the injured student is now in critical but
stable condition, and early information shows the shooter.
Speaker 9 (29:01):
Was not connected to the school. The suspect, forty eight
year old Jacob Lee Bard.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
Of Evansville, Indiana, is in custody and charged with murder
and first degree assault. Let's listen to some of the
press conference from local authorities.
Speaker 27 (29:14):
Within minutes, by three fourteen pm, frank For Police officers
arrived on scene. By that time, Kentucky State University campus
police had already taken swift action action bringing a suspect
into custody. Three individuals were involved in the incident. Individual
who is not a Kentucky State University student, is in custody.
(29:35):
Frank For police believed this to be an isolated incident
and there are no active safety concerns on campus at
this time.
Speaker 8 (29:44):
Well please, yeah, police say the campus was on lockdown
and the area was secured, but for many students the
fear didn't in there. They told reporters their sense of
safety has been shattered. Let's listen to what they have
to say.
Speaker 28 (29:57):
Well, we got finals this week, we just chilling this week.
We ain't thinking that go go or with me, and
then it just happened.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
I heard them let too often.
Speaker 28 (30:05):
After that, it just was crazy and it took about
what thirty minutes for the cops to get here, So
it really was crazy. Then, just the type of stuff
we try to get away from and it come to
college and have to be right at our doorstep. It's
just like crazy and we pay too much money for
this kind of stuff to be taking place at this school. Yeah,
I feel the same way basically, like I thought we
were safe here, ready to get up.
Speaker 6 (30:24):
Out of here.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Now that I heard that angle, it kind.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
Of defeasts the off person even coming to college shit
this year.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
That's why I don't be liking the people. That's exactly
why I don't like people. And you know what I'm saying,
people in.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
Yes, no people in it.
Speaker 4 (30:38):
When you gotta be around people, okay, because you just
never know what folks be on. Man, everybody is a
potential shooter. When I used to work with Windy Wis
used to always talking about the shooter, the shooter, the
shooter might be around. I mean she had a reason
to believe that. But still, however, you're in a crowded place,
but you just never know.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
But them kids are right, Like, you go to college
and get away from a lot of the bs to learn,
to further education. And that's a place that you figure
will be safe, right, A bunch of students in a
place that just want to learn. And then you've got
somebody that doesn't go to this school that kills a
(31:14):
young man.
Speaker 14 (31:15):
And they sound, you know, it's like, dang, I don't
even want to you know, be here, you know it said.
Speaker 8 (31:21):
And that's such a good point, Jess, because one of
the young men that was interviewed was like, he doesn't
even want to come back after the semester is over.
Speaker 9 (31:28):
Because this happened.
Speaker 8 (31:30):
And a statement the university's president, they call the shooting
a senseless tragedy that has left the entire campus grieving,
and officials are urging anyone who needs counseling to reach out.
There will be support and services available for students, staff
and faculty, and the school has canceled classes, final exams,
and all campus activities for the rest of the week,
and students are being told that they can return home
(31:52):
if they choose, and more guidance will be shared in
the coming days.
Speaker 4 (31:56):
Yeah, psychologically, that have to mess you up, because if
you come from a certain environment, you like you know
how to move right, like you kind of know who's who,
you know what to avoid?
Speaker 3 (32:03):
How you do that on campus? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Sure?
Speaker 8 (32:06):
And switching gears now to a story that's getting a
lot of attention on social media and just this is
something you brought to my attention. Posts are circulating claiming
Meta will start reading all of your private messages on Facebook, Instagram,
and WhatsApp. One viral post with more than two hundred
and thirty eight thousand likes says that Meta will start
reading your dms on December sixteenth, Every conversation, every photo,
(32:29):
every voice message fed to AI used for profit.
Speaker 9 (32:32):
No Meta says that is not true, and here is
what is actually happening.
Speaker 8 (32:36):
No Meta is rolling out a policy update on September
or excuse me, December sixteenth, But it does not give
the company access to your private messages, those private conversations
with friends and families that remains into end encrypted, which
means Meta cannot read them. But what the update actually
does is it allows Meta to use the messages that
you send directly to its Meta AI.
Speaker 9 (32:58):
Chat box for personal life content and ads.
Speaker 8 (33:01):
So if you ask AI about hiking, for example, you
might start seeing more hiking apps trail posts or ads
for hiking boots something like that. Meta said that is
no different from how Instagram already reacts when you watch
your rail that activity will shape what you see next.
And to clear things up, Snopes, which is an independent
fact based publication known for verifying viral claims and misinformation,
(33:24):
they reached out to Meta for a clarification, and they
sent back a statement that says, we do not use
the content of your private message with friends or family
to train our AI unless you are someone in the
chat chooses to share those messages with our AI. This
also is it new, nor is it part of our
December sixteenth privacy policy update.
Speaker 10 (33:46):
Okay, cool, because I was ready done. I am done, man, But.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
It's crazy to me that y'all y'all don't assume that
they're already looking at all your stuff now.
Speaker 14 (33:59):
Absolutely yeah, but when you hear that, it's gonna be
like sold or put out there. You never know who
won't get it and then be like.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
Just said or just damn that's what she was saying.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
But once again, it's crazy that y'all assumed that they
wouldn't do that anyway. You know what, the craziest thing
to me was when everybody gets on these apps like
Signal and everything else, and they'd be like, we can
send secret messages.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
You really think somebody gonna create a whole.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
App for you to send secret messages and they're not
gonna look at it.
Speaker 10 (34:27):
It's a lot accessible.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
Once app text all that look at all.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
Just assume whatever you texted, whatever site you on, and
you sending stuff DM that somebody can see if you
move like that, and promise you you'll avoid a lot
of problems in the future.
Speaker 8 (34:41):
All right, Well, now to a very different kind of
holiday delivery. So correctional officers at a South Carolina prison
say a drone flew over the prison yard and dropped
a package that looked less like contraband and more like
someone was prepping for.
Speaker 9 (34:55):
A full holiday feast.
Speaker 8 (34:57):
So inside that package was crab, lif eggs, raw steak,
old based seasoning, cigarettes, and two large bags of marijuana.
Speaker 10 (35:05):
This was a Bottimore Carolin.
Speaker 3 (35:10):
Yeah, okay, yep.
Speaker 8 (35:14):
So all of this was wrapped neatly in a bag
a pigley wiggly shopping down. So the Department of Corrections
they even joked that someone was clearly planning an early
Old Bay crab boil.
Speaker 9 (35:26):
And steak dinner.
Speaker 8 (35:27):
Officials say that drone drops are a growing problem nation wide,
but they usually involved dangerous drugs.
Speaker 9 (35:32):
Not seafood and seasoning.
Speaker 8 (35:35):
No arrests have been made, and officials are still investigating
who that package.
Speaker 9 (35:39):
Was meant for.
Speaker 3 (35:40):
Hey, listen, man, I a'm mad at him for trying.
Speaker 4 (35:42):
It's the holidays, man, I need me a seafood boil,
some weed, you know what I see the problem?
Speaker 3 (35:47):
Man, I'm be honest with you. He tried whoever it
was tried, I can't be mad at him for trying.
Speaker 9 (35:52):
They definitely, they definitely tried it.
Speaker 8 (35:55):
And lastly, to a serious question that needs answered this morning.
So are y'all tea real tree or team artificial?
Speaker 10 (36:03):
No, damn Pine, I'm artificial.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
I've always been team real Tree. But you know, my
wife ain't having it.
Speaker 6 (36:11):
She ain't.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
She hasn't been having it the past couple of years.
We artificial tree.
Speaker 9 (36:15):
All of these guys are artificial trees.
Speaker 8 (36:17):
Okay, Well, because this year the Christmas tree debate is
even louder than ever so real tree fans uh, They
swear that nothing beats the smell, just the tradition, the
moment of bringing that pine sent home and artificial tree.
People say they're done with the pine needles, the watering,
and the mess. They want something they can just pull
out of a box and plug in. But this year, yeah,
(36:37):
but the cost this year is the real debate. Seventy
percent of households are choosing artificial not just for the convenience,
but for the price. A real tree can run anywhere
from one hundred and twenty to two hundred dollars this season,
things to drought and transportation costs. But artificial trees aren't
cheap either. Pre lit versions with all the settings, those
(36:58):
are selling for.
Speaker 9 (36:59):
About four hundred dollars this year. All right, y'all, Well

Speaker 3 (37:22):
I'm in joining us. I don't go anywhere. It's the

and Jeffrey Armand did I say your name round last night?
All right, welcome guys.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
Go first, I want to say thank you to Ryan.
I told him. I called him one day and I said,
my daughter's in NYU.
Speaker 5 (37:50):
She wanted to get into real estate, and he told me, well,
first she has to get a license. So she got
her license in New York, got her license in New Jersey.
That called it back and he actually gave her a
job which was pretty don't and she learned the real
estate industry from Sir Hamp and ends the outs and
then she's now she's in Jerseys and she works. I
just want to say thank you, thanks Man real estate
agent for TV the last thing.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
He's real.
Speaker 20 (38:17):
Probably has a lot though people think you you don't
really do it anymore.
Speaker 29 (38:20):
I bump into people in New York on the street
all the time and they're like, what are you doing
in New York today? Like I live here, Oh, it's
it's not on a set in l a. I'm like, no,
it's real. It's the most real TV show in the
history of the world, and you're actually working.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:34):
Actually it's because you give actor like you.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
Look like.
Speaker 20 (38:44):
I said, you look exactly like you look on TV.
It's like the look.
Speaker 26 (38:48):
Yeah, yeah, I try to stay in character.
Speaker 29 (38:50):
I shaved my head this summer and I was recognized
less and it was it was hard for me.
Speaker 26 (38:55):
I went back into costume.
Speaker 5 (38:59):
Really said, there's a lot of At one time, I
feel like all on TV there was nothing but real
estate shows, right, and they were good.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
I thought they were great, and then I see.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
Like none, yeah, like they or what is happening with
the real estate industry where people are either leaving or
maybe people are not doing as well as they experience
of thought, why is that?
Speaker 29 (39:17):
I mean, we all have feelings about that. I don't
think it has to do with the real estate industry.
I think it has to do with media and how
people consume media. It used to be so million Dollar
Listing was the first show I did in twenty twelve.
Right show, So we did it for ten years, and
that show was special because you couldn't get access to
a ten million dollar house right as a viewer, Like
(39:37):
you couldn't see a fifty million dollars penhouse. You had
to turn on TV to see what that looked like. Today,
everything is in the palm of your hand. You can
go on Sora and invent one if you want to.
So the shows now are no longer about the access.
So if you're a if you want to make a
real estate show and all you have is real estate,
no one cares. And I think what makes this show
so special people like Patricia and Jeffrey, who are characters.
(40:01):
They're great people, but they are characters in this insane
world of New York City real estate, and that's what
people want to see. That the real estate is actually
like the bookends, right, it's the skeleton, Like, yeah, it's
the backdrop. And then so a lot of the shows
have come off the air, they've tried and they've been
canceled because they suck.
Speaker 16 (40:21):
And then we tell a great story too.
Speaker 30 (40:23):
How often do you have like a couple that's together,
working together, you know, live together, and just together, shoot together,
you know, and.
Speaker 16 (40:31):
Actually come from Brooklyn to go into Manhattan.
Speaker 30 (40:33):
So there's interesting storylines and we really try to like
tell it differently so that the viewer. At some point
you're gonna get tired of seeing the same thing over
and over again. So, I mean, I think the thing
that we really did different is like we really got
into great storytelling and really visually, when you look at
it, it looks almost like a docu series.
Speaker 16 (40:48):
It doesn't really feel like typical reality TV.
Speaker 5 (40:51):
Yeah, and how's the market now? How is the marketing?
I mean it's they're saying and hous has been on
the market the longest in a long time?
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Is it a bias market? Is a sell as mall?
Where should people be looking? Should they be looking now?
Should they sit it out? What's your thoughts on it?
Speaker 30 (41:04):
I mean, personally, I think it's always a good time
to look. I mean whenever. Like there's a couple of things.
There's a tale of two markets. I call it because
you have if you look at you know, luxury sector
four milliona up in the data, you gotta be careful
like what you read and what you hear and just
really look at the data. The data shows that there's
been a lot of sales in that track in that
price point. And now conversely with lower price points, people
are affected by interest rates. But we do see interest
(41:26):
rates dropping and getting lower, so then people start to
become more active. So I think the time is really now,
and especially this time in the season, this is when
you can get deals. You know, during this time, things
like to your point have been sitting on the market
for a little bit, but now you can be more
aggressive as a buyer. So it just finds that little
comfortable medium between you know, sellers that are realistic about
pricing and buyers who are realistic about where they can
(41:48):
land and where you can find a deal you can
find it.
Speaker 23 (41:51):
Well.
Speaker 22 (41:51):
I think it's a little different for us because our
brokerage gets quite a bit of visibility. So there's the
market and then there's our business, which is very different,
Like we get I mean, our phone are ringing, We're
very busy. We are listing billions of dollars of real estate.
And I think that only Manhattan has some part of that.
You know, the brand has a lot to do with it,
and I think the characters that are at the firm.
(42:11):
I think everyone that is at Sir Hanton has such
their of their own individual's story. Like I think I
don't know if it was Ryan or when the producer said,
it's like all of these people just show up and
they all think that they're the lead and they're the
main character, and they just happen to all be.
Speaker 13 (42:23):
Sitting in a room.
Speaker 22 (42:24):
And that's how it is because in my mind, I'm
the star of the show, and I think that's safe.
Speaker 13 (42:28):
It's the same for everyone else.
Speaker 16 (42:30):
Actually are really clear.
Speaker 22 (42:32):
But I think that's what's interesting about the brand is
it really attracts people that are really like the face
of their business and they're comfortable with that, and they
lean into it and they use media and really creative
ways to do it. So our business is very different
than the market business right now.
Speaker 13 (42:45):
We're grateful for that.
Speaker 5 (42:46):
I was going to ask, you know, with the market
being bad in a lot of places and people being
broke and just being able to afford, you know, rent,
at the time, they've been encouraging people to start buying
houses so that money that they're paying for rent.
Speaker 3 (42:57):
Could actually be towards house.
Speaker 5 (42:58):
Is there places or some type of grants that you
send people to what they could actually get help with
doing that.
Speaker 22 (43:04):
I'd like the best help personally, because I mean we're
speaking about New York specifically, is to buy together and
to get creative about it. You know, jen Z is
getting that right, and I think that millennials missed out
on that mark.
Speaker 13 (43:15):
But when I.
Speaker 22 (43:16):
Speak to people, especially all through bedste Brooklyn and Brooklyn
Heights wherever, there's so many stories. Are you and I
bought and then as soon as we were up on
our feet, then we got We made sure our sister bought,
and then we made sure our cousins bought.
Speaker 13 (43:28):
So when I talk to people and we're selling these houses.
Speaker 22 (43:30):
Multimillion dollar homes people have been for twenty thirty years,
the stories are all the same. They got creative and
they did it together. Yeah, you know, it's easier.
Speaker 26 (43:37):
You can sell portions of an LLC.
Speaker 29 (43:39):
So co ownership for younger generation is becoming a thing
that we do now that we've never done before. So
New York City's hard because you can only cut it
up a couple different ways.
Speaker 26 (43:48):
But like, if you like, you can.
Speaker 29 (43:50):
Take eight eight cousins in Florida and you can cut
up a purchase price times eight and maybe only two
of you live there, but the rest of you are
helping and it's an investment for them and you get
to ride the market as the market increases.
Speaker 22 (44:02):
Equity is always gorgeous. Yeah, you know, especially I mean
in New York. I've watched it for twenty two years straight,
and I just I always tell everyone we can walk
down the block anywhere in Brooklyn or anywhere in Manhattan,
and we feel proud of the work that we've done
for our clients because if I see you five years.
Speaker 13 (44:16):
From now, I know I'm going to be the favorite
person you run.
Speaker 22 (44:18):
Into today because I know it was a part of
that really smart investment that you've made, and that feels
good in the daily work.
Speaker 4 (44:24):
What's the quiet you know pressures y'all carry now because
of this show, because you know, when you think about
your brand, your brokerage, your brokerage, they're all tied to
decisions that are made on this show.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
Are there any pressure that comes to the yes?
Speaker 29 (44:38):
Yeah, I mean it's you know, someone said to me yesterday,
the show is uncomfortably authentic. And I think to your
point about other shows not being on the air anymore,
no one wants to be sold right, No one wants
to watch stuff that's super produced anymore. Like the show
watches us in real time, whether deals get done or not,
whether people are happy or not, whether things are going
(44:59):
our way or not. I think all three of us
have some sort of mental breakdown this season on camera
that we probably wish was not out there, and so
there's there's a lot of pressure.
Speaker 26 (45:08):
But I think we we also.
Speaker 29 (45:10):
Understand the role of our responsibility to to not just
the world, but to our industry to to show it
in as great of a light as we possibly can
and then make use of it.
Speaker 26 (45:20):
Man, like we are so lucky. It is not lost
on us.
Speaker 29 (45:23):
Like it's it's hard enough to get one TV show,
let alone a big one like this that's on a
global network like Netflix that drops all over the world
in one day where people get to say, oh, I'll
go work.
Speaker 26 (45:33):
With those people. I mean, it's a it's a massive
commercial for us, and I.
Speaker 16 (45:36):
Need to have it picked up for season two's that's
even the bigger thing.
Speaker 26 (45:39):
That's a hard or three three.
Speaker 13 (45:40):
Now Ever, I think it has changed.
Speaker 22 (45:47):
I think for season one, for me, it was like
I am showing up as the black woman, and I
created this this pressure for myself that I had to
at some point release to really give myself that freedom.
And then obviously I felt that it gave other black
women that freedom. I was like, I'm just gonna show
up as me and y'all are going to love it
or leave, but I don't care. And I'll give you
the realness of who I am. But I'll also give
(46:07):
you all the layers of who I am. So I'm
not going to just show up and be the person
that's sassy. I'm also going to be smart. I'm also
going to be gentle. I'm gonna be vulnerable, I'm gonna
be I can be very maternal in some moments. You know,
I can be a teacher in some moments. I can
also check you in other moments. And so I felt like,
let me just show all of that, and that's the
only pressure I'm going to put on myself.
Speaker 6 (46:25):
Now.
Speaker 22 (46:26):
I feel that the pressure is kind of always showing
that we are actual, real agents, because that's the question
we could ask the most. And I mean, I can't
speak for everyone on the show, but I'm.
Speaker 13 (46:35):
Ten years in.
Speaker 22 (46:36):
I had my ten year anniversary last week, yes, and
another ten year anniversary as well.
Speaker 13 (46:44):
But yeah, so it's like, but no, it's it's to me.
Speaker 22 (46:56):
It's like I do feel the need to know just
validate my business, and I never felt that before, but
being on TV, people just decide that you're not actually
really doing this. I have to be on top of
my emails to the moment I walk in and talk
to you guys, and then start right back up the
minute I walk out. My clients don't care nothing about
what I'm doing right now or that show.
Speaker 13 (47:16):
They care about their assets.
Speaker 3 (47:18):
What about you everyone?
Speaker 30 (47:19):
I mean, I think one thing, just to pick it
back on what Trisha saying, I think it's important to understand,
like the vulnerability that we reveal on the show because
with us, part of our story arc is that we're
coming from Brooklyn into Manhattan and there's some great story
origins with one of a new listing that we have
like here on fifth Ave, five East fifty ninth Street,
and the origin story with Trish and how that happened,
(47:41):
which is nothing that we plan or stage whatsoever. This
is all authentic and how that comes full circle the moment,
and when you watch the show you'll get to you know,
to already understand it. But it's really heartfelt. I would
say probably one of the most compelling moments of the season.
Speaker 13 (47:56):
I mean, we're shocked.
Speaker 3 (47:57):
I'm so shocked.
Speaker 22 (47:58):
I forget the cameras are there and I'm like what,
and they catch everything because it was just it was
such a surprise.
Speaker 30 (48:04):
But to answer your question for me, me, what's really
important is what Tricia's is to really make sure that
people understand that we know the business. The truth is,
you have to know the business inside out. You have
to be cognizant of what's happening in real time. You
got to be able to disseminate, like what's the truth
and how does it really impact you? Because everything you
know real estate is really both macro and micro, So
you got to be able to understand what's micro for
(48:25):
your world and the macro piece that you read from,
you know, on every other platform. So I won't say
this though, I didn't necessarily understand how difficult real estate
was right until I had a daughter in it. Right, yes,
And I'm watching her with the emails and sending out emails,
and then.
Speaker 3 (48:40):
I'm watching her.
Speaker 5 (48:41):
She'll get somebody and she'll go to short apartment and
she'll drive forty minutes to that apartment, and then the
person to saying I have to I can't do it today,
and how much time it takes, and you break down
how much.
Speaker 3 (48:50):
Effort energy it goes into doing it because people just
see the glitz goes on to like Jesus.
Speaker 30 (48:58):
I mean, we're in ten years for a reason, so
it just didn't happen right off the bat. We're here
on owning Manhattan or we're just selling you know, fifteen
twenty million dollar properties.
Speaker 16 (49:07):
You have to start from the grind.
Speaker 30 (49:10):
I mean there are times when you work from months
to two months to three months without getting paid.
Speaker 16 (49:13):
How long did you get paid on your first deal?
Speaker 13 (49:15):
Oh my gosh, six months and it was no money
at all, no money at all.
Speaker 22 (49:18):
So yeah, and there's I feel like the shows they
tend to show all the glitz, and there's so much
work that we do we never get paid for. There's
so many efforts that we make that nobody cares about.
And I feel like being on the show, I want
to make sure I share that story because the assumption
is when you look really great and maybe Ryan will
hire you, and then you'll end up on the show
and then you'll sell real estate. It's the complete opposite
(49:39):
business plan. It's like, you've got to do a really
great job, even be like on the radar. Yeah, to
even end up on the radar and then being on
the show creates pressure too, because I don't want to
put a product out there that I can't sell, because
I mean, every time I run into anybody, they're like, oh, so,
what happened with you know?
Speaker 29 (49:56):
Yes, you know, because you film in real time, and
so you're like, hey, I just got this listing, this
building or this penhouse something like, let's go film it
and then but filming doesn't last forever. You eventually have
to stop and if it hasn't sold, that's what happens.
And then everyone what happened, Well, oh did you failed
in front of the world.
Speaker 26 (50:17):
It's selling an apartment that's not that hard.
Speaker 30 (50:19):
And then one thing that you don't realize as we're shooting,
often times we're still negotiating at real time, so we're
shooting under the eyes of this is going to be
sold on the show, and we're just hoping that he
gets sold. Like that was the case last season for us.
I mean, it was a property that we we were
just we shot it, we closed it, and like we
were still the closing table trying to close in real
time as we were shooting the scene of it being closed,
(50:40):
and it.
Speaker 22 (50:40):
Was like such a difficult transaction. It got like awarded
Real Estate Board.
Speaker 3 (50:44):
They won a Deal of the Year of New York.
Speaker 22 (50:47):
So and that's really an award. It's hard to do
that a deal that shouldn't have closed. That's that's the
reason for the award. The whole industry gets together to say,
you actually did it. That was the deal that was
on the show first season. So imagine the layer of
stress there, you know, and you're on TV for the
first time as well.
Speaker 20 (51:03):
Yeah, but I was going to say, so on top
of all the stress you're on TV, you also have
like your personal lives that are being shown.
Speaker 10 (51:07):
There's a character there. Where do y'all find the time
to do all of that, like work?
Speaker 20 (51:12):
Like what are y'all teams like behind the scenes to
help you guys, because there's a lot of interaction of
correspondence with trying to close something.
Speaker 13 (51:19):
There's so much support though.
Speaker 30 (51:20):
But it's just really time management and just having a
support system, like thankfully, that's part of the reasons.
Speaker 26 (51:24):
Why, and not wasting time.
Speaker 2 (51:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 29 (51:27):
A big piece of advice I give to people a lot,
especially younger younger people, is you have the time. Everyone's
got the same amount of hours, yep, Like I have
the same amount hours that she has that Oprah has,
you know what I mean, Like we all have the
same amount of time in a day and do a
time audit like actually, just the same way if you're
trying to lose weight, like you do a diet, you know,
journal to see like oh wait, you're right, Like I
do eat a lot. I just eat a little bit
(51:48):
all the time, and then it all adds up. Same
thing with time, like if you'll see, shoot, okay, my
screen time, Wow, I did open TikTok seventy two times today.
What if I didn't do that? What else could I do?
Speaker 17 (52:01):
You know?
Speaker 29 (52:02):
And so that's like that's an epidemic and that brain
rot right, you know, it's it's real.
Speaker 26 (52:09):
It's totally real.
Speaker 29 (52:09):
Which is like in Australia now they outlawed social media
for kids under sixteen. That's which I think is really
going to change the landscape, you know, country by country
by country, and I think it's a major mental health
issue just because it's easier and then you're never bored,
and kids need to be bored, Like they got to
figure things out, they got to find things to be difficult,
and it's one of the harder things about hiring kids
(52:31):
now out of school to come work in real estate.
Is they're like, all right, well, where's where's the thing?
The thing, the thing, the thing, Like you just sit
still and you just need to put in the work.
And they've never done it before, Like they've never built
a blockhouse, because you can't swipe a block house.
Speaker 3 (52:47):
What's the one house that you guys didn't sell? That
bites at you every day? Oh my god.
Speaker 29 (52:52):
COVID going twenty nineteen, going to twenty twenty, a foreign
investment fund wanted to buy a building in New York
City And I never sold a building before, okay, And
we found a building on the East Side. It's called
Copper Towers, the building that looks like a like a
k Okay. It was March, the beginning of March of
twenty twenty. We had a contract out for just under
(53:13):
nine hundred and ninety million dollars and I had never
done a deal like that before, like literally life changing.
The money that was coming in was heavily backed by
oil money. And then people started getting sick and the
price of oil drops, the stock market tanks, the deal
gets put on ice, and the deal dies and then
it someone else bought it, like two years later, and.
Speaker 26 (53:33):
I think about that deal dying. What would commission I
would be.
Speaker 29 (53:38):
Two percent of basically a billion, you know, yeah, so
it'd have been I think just under twenty million dollars.
Speaker 26 (53:45):
And I think about that four times a day.
Speaker 29 (53:49):
So that that jumped, right, and you think about that
deal because it was just so and what we all
have those. I mean, if you were thinking about getting
into real estate and you're thinking about your career, anybody
can do it because it's seventy five eighty hours you
click online. The barrier of entry is incredibly low, but
the chance of success is it's even lower.
Speaker 11 (54:08):
Right.
Speaker 29 (54:08):
Ninety percent of everyone who gets a license bails because
there's no benefit, there's no salary. You have to eat
what you kill, and no one tells you what to do.
But if you put in the work, if you're good
to people, you follow up, you can have a completely
limitless career. And I think that opportunity is part of
the magic that the show also follows, because it does
follow all the dead deals. Because our job is to lose.
(54:29):
The job is to swing so much that you lose.
You take so many shots at the net that you
just you miss them all because the ones that go
in are worth it, you know, and you're only as
good as your last deal in this business. I was
selling an apartment before Uber came out to one of
the taxi kings of New York City who owned all
the medallions. Super rich, right, super super rich buying an
apartment in Lower Manhattan. It's like twenty five million dollars,
(54:52):
full floor, insane deal, but it's new construction. So you
go to contract like two years before you close. In
those two years Uber gets approved to come into New
York City, taxis basically disappear, and the value of that medallion,
which went from like one point one one point two
million dollars, went to like two hundred grand, So his
net worth went from here all the way to here,
(55:14):
and he couldn't close. And I remember like they were
going to take his deposit, which in a building like
that is I think twenty percent, so twenty percent of
about you know, of a it's like five million bucks
kind of you know, would say, but five million dollars
you lose. And he like grabbed me by my my
suit lapel and he put me up against the wall.
I'll tell the story because I put it in a book,
(55:34):
and he never came after me, but uh, and he
was like, he's like, I've put people under the bridge.
If you don't get me out of this, you're next.
And I had to find him an attorney to try
to get and we found something in the offering Plan,
which is the book that the Attorney General approves one
line that the developer hadn't actually done their job on
(55:57):
and we got him out of his deposit.
Speaker 26 (55:59):
And I'm still here today.
Speaker 3 (56:00):
Jesus.
Speaker 26 (56:01):
That one was a rough one.
Speaker 22 (56:02):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (56:03):
And how you deal with people yelling at you?
Speaker 5 (56:05):
Right, because at the end of the day, you're doing
a job for a client, right, and you're trying to
do the best job that you can. But sometimes I'm
sure things don't go to way it they want, but
the disrespect and I see it sometimes.
Speaker 3 (56:15):
So how do y'all deal with that?
Speaker 26 (56:16):
It's never you you have to.
Speaker 29 (56:19):
It's hard at the beginning until you understand that people
never really grow up. They're just disguised as like forty
year old men, you know, and they don't know who
else to take it out on, so they take it
out on you, like Mary, Yeah, but like married couples,
like is she gonna yell at her husband. You know what,
it's easier to yell at Jeffrey because she's angry at
the situation, not necessarily angry at us. So like you
(56:40):
always just have to detach and understand that they're upset
about the situation and you have to be able to
empathize with it. And then you just mirror and say,
I understand. If I could yell at myself, I would like,
I'm here with you, and you just keep you agree,
you agree, you agree, and then you hit them with solution, solution, solution,
and then they don't know what to do and they say,
just fix it, right, and that's how that's how you
get through it.
Speaker 30 (57:00):
And a lot of this, like we wear multiple hats.
I mean, part of it is a therapist, right, you know,
being able to understand, be empathetic to what they're going
through and then realizing that this is someone's most you know,
the biggest asset and so the most expensive asset ever,
so you got to really understand where it's coming from. No,
it's not really you, it's just them, and they're like,
oh my god, this isn't happening the way I expected
(57:21):
it to happen. So you just have to understand and
just have you know, answers and solutions to whatever the
issue is. In like right then and there, most.
Speaker 26 (57:28):
Of the people are just mad at themselves and so
they they just take it out on other people.
Speaker 6 (57:32):
Yeah, I do that.
Speaker 20 (57:34):
So you break down in the trailer, you break down
just because of all of the pressure. How often do
y'all break down even though it's not y'all lunch and.
Speaker 26 (57:46):
Yeah, typically eleven am.
Speaker 30 (57:48):
It varies are the deals and what we're dealing with,
you know, like there are times where you know, deals
just fall apart and you do everything you can, they
still fall apart.
Speaker 3 (57:56):
You know, what was your like what was it?
Speaker 10 (57:58):
Exactly? Like, what is the biggest This is the cherry
on top day? Now the tiers are flowing.
Speaker 29 (58:03):
That scene, Yeah, that's in the season finale. Was not anticipated.
It wasn't like planned or anything, and just goes to
how real this show is and how uncomfortable a lot
of it is.
Speaker 26 (58:14):
The show is also really funny. You know, it's very aspirational.
Speaker 29 (58:17):
It's very sexy, glitzy, big real estate and all that,
but then at the same time it shows all the
gutters of the business too, and there's just a lot
you know, there's a lot going on. I bootstrapped the
business for four years by myself, you know, on one
hundred percent of it.
Speaker 26 (58:32):
Everything's on me. Do I grow? Do I not grow?
Speaker 29 (58:34):
People are angry, people are happy. There's personal pressures. There's
no time. I sleep four hours a day. Why did
I ever do this?
Speaker 3 (58:40):
Should I?
Speaker 6 (58:41):
Should? I just move?
Speaker 29 (58:42):
Like you know, there's just like a lot of this,
and I have no one to talk to you because
everyone is biased. Your therapist is biased, your spouse is
by your friend, the company, my mom is biased based therapist,
but they're they're they're biased to you. They almost best
for you always if you're a therapist and you're watching this.
My email is Ryan at sir Hanson dot com.
Speaker 16 (59:04):
Mental Health.
Speaker 29 (59:05):
And I was talking to my ex assistant, who I
just have like a very friendly relationship with and he
was in my email for five years, so he just
knows my life. And it was the first time I
had actually just like talked about everything that was going on.
And you know, I think, I say, like, I focus
on the work because the work keeps me focused and
I don't know what else to do. And then there
(59:28):
was just an awkward silence and then I just lost
it and then the cameras are there and I'm.
Speaker 13 (59:32):
Like, God, Jesus, I feel like everyone found out about that.
They're like Ryan was crying. I was like wait, and
we're like he doesn't have any emotions.
Speaker 26 (59:38):
That man has no heart doing that?
Speaker 5 (59:41):
Are people from a million dollaristic? I feel like they
just just off the face of the planet. Like any
of those guys anymore, no crazy, no I have.
Speaker 3 (59:49):
You don't see them. The more you'll hear any shows,
I realize the same show this, but none of those guys.
You just don't see them anymore. And it's just weird
that you.
Speaker 29 (01:00:06):
Just Only Manhattan is my fifth reality show. I did
four for Bravo, million Dollar listing, a wedding show, a
renovation show, and then a show called Sell It Like Sirhan,
which we turned into sell It dot Com, which is
a sales training business, and then Only Manhattan, which we
you know, push over to Netflix. And I think what's
what's cool for us is I think for other shows
and the other guys, right, a lot of people like
(01:00:27):
you talked about, they get on TV and they want
to be on TV. They want to be famous, they
want to become influencers and sell toasters or whatever. The
three of us have like fame as a byproduct of
our ability to do more business and build the greatest
careers of all time. And I think the audience sees that,
and so they keep giving us more because it's just real.
(01:00:49):
And so I built a sales team my first you
know career as a real estate agent on the back
of Bravo, you know, million dollar listing, and now we're
building a company and kind of a metaway on the
backs of net Flix. And people get to watch like
going from a couple of us at a dinner table
to Okay, there's fifteen hundred of us now in fifteen states.
Speaker 26 (01:01:09):
What does that look like?
Speaker 29 (01:01:10):
And then just watch that whole jenet to raising money
for the first time to getting fired, having people quit
on you. And so yeah, so I think the other guys,
you know, were I mean, you know, I think there's
a lot of one hit wonders out there across the board.
You see the music, you see it the sports, you know,
And so we work really really hard to focus on
the work.
Speaker 26 (01:01:27):
If you take care of the work, the work will
take care of you.
Speaker 5 (01:01:29):
We appreciate you guys for joining us sent two of
Owning Manhattan. It's on Netflix right now. Ryan, Sir, Hanchrister,
Lee and Jeffrey say, om on, thank you so much.
Speaker 6 (01:01:36):
Thanks.
Speaker 3 (01:01:37):
How about a niece's looking for something.
Speaker 16 (01:01:39):
She'sa come right to Brooks and I already spoke to it.
Speaker 3 (01:01:41):
Okay, say no more good, all right, it's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning. Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
Speaker 12 (01:01:45):
Lauren becoming a straight there.
Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
She gets them from somebody that knows somebody detail.
Speaker 10 (01:01:52):
I'm a long guard that knows a little bit about everything, and.
Speaker 3 (01:01:55):
She'd be having the latest on your things.
Speaker 4 (01:01:58):
Just the latest with Lauren la Rowe sometimes you have facts,
sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit
of everything on the Breakfast.
Speaker 3 (01:02:05):
Class talk to me.
Speaker 20 (01:02:08):
Jez sat down with a bitch of TD Jakes for
his podcast Next Chapter, and they had a conversation in
full about his life and some of the things that
he's been through. But Jesz opened up a lot about
his divorce and what he learned. So let's take a
listen to Gezi on what he learned from his marriage
and his divorce.
Speaker 6 (01:02:25):
What did you learn from it?
Speaker 31 (01:02:27):
I learned I was a great husband, I got a
beautiful daughter out of the situation. So there's no regrets there.
But I learned a lot about myself. I learned about,
you know, my prefaces for things, the type of space
that I need, type of moments that I need to
decompress about certain things. And this just unselfish nature that
(01:02:48):
I was selfish in my prior life, and I think
just going forward in life, it just taught me how
to like give someone else grace and accidentally listen to
understand rather than just to listen to reply. Because when
you're sharing the life with somebody, you know, it's almost
(01:03:08):
like you don't become one. But this is a partnership, right,
and so for me, it's almost like I've never experienced
anything like that.
Speaker 20 (01:03:17):
Yeah, So there are there's a you know, conversation now
around this clip because people are trying to figure out
because he says, you know, I felt like I was
a great husband, and people were upset to hear him
say that because it ended in a divorce. But what now,
what I this is what I think people are missing
because there was another part of the interview where he
talks about what he learned, which I thought was actually
(01:03:37):
really powerful and it was a lot of accountability on
his part. People are missing that. You know, you go
through things, you learn and you find out what you
did good, what you did bad. Let's take a listen
to Gezi on what he says he would do differently.
Speaker 6 (01:03:48):
I would definitely take my time.
Speaker 31 (01:03:49):
I've learned now that friendship is the biggest key to anything.
I mean, I think when you become friends with someone
and you're like really invested in the friendship and just
builds a different type of foundation. I would make sure
that the community is as strong as the foundation, because
it takes a community like to keep you know, to
keep you accountable, and have people that you can process
(01:04:12):
with to be honest with you. I didn't have a
lot of great examples of relationships. And I do want
to say this though, because I felt like when people
hear me speak about like what I went through with
my mom and all this stuff, They're like, oh, you
went into a relationship with marriage with mommy issues. I
had been working on that stuff, so that had nothing
to do with my timeline with my marriage. It was
(01:04:34):
a humbling experience to have to like make sure that
you're present enough to hear what somebody else is right there.
Speaker 6 (01:04:41):
Should be no judgment there. He's right.
Speaker 3 (01:04:43):
Well, did the good brother Jeez learn that doctor Gumar
was right? Talk about that?
Speaker 4 (01:04:48):
When I talk about that, Did he learn that a
lot of black women around him were right? Because a
lot of black women were saying he should have been
with a system. Not saying there's anything wrong with the
relationship that he was in. I'm just saying that when
he speaks about community and things of that nature, sounds
like he's saying doctor Lumar was.
Speaker 5 (01:05:03):
It sounds like, sounds like you need to say he's
working on himself right because he's talking about the fact
that he was he was selfish in a relationship.
Speaker 3 (01:05:11):
And things like that. I m say, you should be
with a black woman that.
Speaker 10 (01:05:16):
Things.
Speaker 20 (01:05:16):
But I heard that when I heard this part of it,
I said, oh, he realized that he didn't need to
be there, like absolutely.
Speaker 2 (01:05:22):
And his last name Jenkins.
Speaker 4 (01:05:24):
You see what I'm saying. You know, Jenny Jenkins never
sounded it's crazy. I mean, it sounded like, oh, Jenny Jenkins,
you expect one presentation in the room, but.
Speaker 5 (01:05:33):
Then you know Jos like my marriage, he sounds like
I mean, he said he needs to work on himself
and he was a lot selfish, and he had to
be more uh in that relationship, more open, right talk
about things that's not just he said he wasn't I
call it right fighting? Right fighting is you just want
to be right in a relationship and you don't want
(01:05:54):
to listen. And he said he had to go, that's
not what we heard.
Speaker 7 (01:05:56):
We heard.
Speaker 13 (01:05:59):
You live.
Speaker 3 (01:06:00):
You know, get black and you whatever you are, I'm black, sir.
Speaker 14 (01:06:06):
He just learned how he just learned learned and marriage
that is not just about him. I don't think that
he you know, was saying anything else. It's just like, okay,
oh yeah, this thing is about not it's not just me.
Speaker 10 (01:06:16):
It's a union. It's like me and you.
Speaker 14 (01:06:17):
I gotta be emotionally intelligent enough to care about how
you feel too.
Speaker 3 (01:06:23):
You know, you should have been a black woman.
Speaker 4 (01:06:25):
You know what else, It's funny every time GZ does
these kinds of interviews, because I remember when he did
it with Neil Long too, and I did a Bishop TDJS.
I get a bunch of people hitting me, a bunch
of ladies that I know why you don't hook.
Speaker 3 (01:06:35):
Me up with GZ damn because some type of match
in these sentence because he sounds.
Speaker 20 (01:06:42):
Very accountable, very mature, very grown, very like you know,
and it's not given snow man, No, it's given.
Speaker 10 (01:06:49):
H No, it's not. What's his name?
Speaker 3 (01:06:53):
What you mean, what's his name? His name Jay Jenkibs.
Speaker 2 (01:06:56):
It's Jay Jenkins.
Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
Real, it's given, yes, given, Jake Jenkins.
Speaker 22 (01:07:02):
I know.
Speaker 2 (01:07:04):

Speaker 20 (01:07:05):
Yeah, because he's even talking to here about like his
finances and learning what to do with the finances and
and what differently dating wise, he he's going to do
this summer around, you know, as.
Speaker 10 (01:07:14):
He person, he's very calm, I relaxed.
Speaker 3 (01:07:18):
God damn man, well you married and you definitely what
you're doing. She's in a relationship.
Speaker 20 (01:07:34):
You said they brought up over Jesus well and the
next that is crazy because if we was down in him,
you'd be like you eight black men and blah blah blah,
and then we like shout j.
Speaker 10 (01:07:47):
He's you made some mistake you learned from me. It's
like y'all brooked up.
Speaker 3 (01:07:52):
I just want you to know. You know, when you
get somebody a gift and they love the gift. Morning had.

Speaker 3 (01:09:02):
To day to day.
Speaker 4 (01:09:03):
That's crazy, right, How's somebody gonna get mad at me
because I try to be a good coworker and tell
them that they sweatsuit smell a little used that you
had asked, man.
Speaker 3 (01:09:12):
How does after they work out this morning? I'm like,
you know, you gotta be around people today anyway, don't

Speaker 4 (01:09:19):
But Wednesday, December, tiff goes to Maurice Nolan Evans. Okay,
he's twenty five years old and he's been charged with
murder after a parking lot dispute ended in him killing
a man named Dominique Goodman. First thing's first rest in
piece of that brother, Dominique Man. Let's go to w
SBB TV for the report. Police's why I don't argument
with people, man, I advise anybody on that argle nobody.
Speaker 32 (01:09:41):
That's advice from a boat angles customer after he learned
why the fast food restaurant was closed, I told him
an employee here is accused of killing the father.
Speaker 12 (01:09:50):
Of his coworker and the store's parking lot.
Speaker 32 (01:09:53):
Maurice Evans faces murder, aggravated assault, and selling the possession
of a firearm during a crime, and the death Dominique Goodman.
Speaker 12 (01:10:01):
Paul Meto.
Speaker 32 (01:10:02):
Police say a manager sent Evans home for the day
Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 12 (01:10:06):
Officers say, instead of going home, Evans waited for about
an hour for Goodman to arrive.
Speaker 3 (01:10:12):
And when the guy got out, he got out shooting.
Speaker 32 (01:10:14):
Marlene Lately says she is a family friend of the Goodmun's.
She says Goodman's daughter works at the restaurant and called
her father for help after getting into a dispute with Evans.
Speaker 12 (01:10:25):
Goodman then came to the restaurant to check.
Speaker 6 (01:10:27):
On his daughter.
Speaker 3 (01:10:28):
See very protective his children, just like anybody would be.
Speaker 12 (01:10:31):
She never expected it to end with him dead.
Speaker 3 (01:10:36):
Why why?
Speaker 6 (01:10:36):
Why? Why?
Speaker 13 (01:10:37):
Why?
Speaker 4 (01:10:37):
Rest in peace? Dominique Goodman Again, Man, you know I
got four daughters. My daughter comes to me and tells
me you picking on her. You know she had a
dispute with a grown man. I gotta come high, let
you about it, okay, And now I'm dead because you
lack emotional intelligence. I haven't read in this story or
heard in this story where Dominique had a gun. I
haven't read in this story where he was aggressive. I
don't know what was said to this twenty five yeard
(01:11:00):
old man Maurice Evans by Dominique. But I know that
whatever it was, it wasn't worth Dominique being unna live
for it. And it's not worth Maurice having a murder charge.
I love bow Jangles, Okay. I had a bowl berry
biscuit the weekly Thanksgiving ordered two. Actually, okay, I only
ate one because that's about three fifty three hundred and
seventy calories.
Speaker 3 (01:11:17):
But the moral of the story is bot Barry Biscuits
ain't dying for you, man. Okay, both Jangles ain't worth
dying over you.
Speaker 4 (01:11:24):
A manager at bow Jangles, a manager at a restaurant period,
a manager had a fast food change.
Speaker 3 (01:11:28):
Managers at restaurants and fast food.
Speaker 4 (01:11:30):
Chains must hear and take customer and employee complaints seriously.
Speaker 3 (01:11:36):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:11:36):
Managers are the first line of defense for the culture
of any establishment, not just culture, productivity and legal risk.
Speaker 3 (01:11:42):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:11:43):
I don't know what you said to this man's daughter,
but what if what you said was liable and her
father coming to talk to you about it enabled you
to see a different perspective, change your behavior and shift shifts,
some shifts some things around before you and bo Jangles
got sued.
Speaker 6 (01:11:56):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:11:56):
All you had to do, young man, was listening to
what his father's complaints were and move on. But no,
you decided to grab a pistol and shoot and kill
this man for what we gotta shed our fragile eagles.
Speaker 3 (01:12:10):
People.
Speaker 4 (01:12:10):
It's twenty twenty five. All right, this is the year
of the snake. Twenty twenty five was the year of snake.
I don't know if y'all know that. Okay, the snake
year means shedding. Okay, you shed all that bad energy,
bad behavior. This is about transformation and new beginnings.
Speaker 3 (01:12:23):
And it's a nine year.
Speaker 6 (01:12:24):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:12:24):
Two plus two plus five equals nine. This is an
ending's year, Okay, a karmic completion year. And boy, oh boy, Maurice,
have you just embarked on a new beginning called prison?
Speaker 6 (01:12:35):
All right?
Speaker 4 (01:12:36):
Now, there was a part of me that initially thought,
this is why we got to teach our kids to
stand up for themselves. But I don't know how old
his daughter was. What if she was sixteen and the
manager Maurice's twenty five. She went home to tell her
daddy about this grown man picking on her, so he
pulled up, you know, even if she was sixteen and
knew how to stand up for herself. Clearly, this dude, Maurice,
who's unstable and might have ended up harming the young
(01:12:57):
lady in somewhere. You just never no nowadays, and this
is why everyone should just mind their business. I agree
with the brother that was talking at the beginning of
the thing. Play that play the clip again, right, that's when.
Speaker 6 (01:13:09):
Here's why I don't argue with people. Man.
Speaker 33 (01:13:11):
I'll advise anybody on that argle nobody.
Speaker 4 (01:13:14):
Stop right there that I don't argue with people unless
it's on the radio or on the podcast. Okay, mind
your business, Mind you black owned business. Mind the business
that pays you. Managers shouldn't be picking on employee.
Speaker 3 (01:13:25):
Okay. The only thing you should be telling that employee
to do is their job.
Speaker 4 (01:13:29):
If you get complaints from employees, employees, parents, customers, just
listen to the complaints and adjust accordingly. You do not
grab your pistol and kill them for complaining about whatever
they was complaining about. And the fact I even have
to say that is nuts. But welcome to the current
world we live in. Please let me ma give Maurice
Evans the biggest he hull.
Speaker 10 (01:13:48):
Hei ha heih You stupid mother?

Every day is a different day. It's different emotion, I'm sure.
Speaker 33 (01:14:54):
Yeah it someday is better than others, for sure. But
we're still pushing, man. You still push.
Speaker 4 (01:15:01):
When I think about you, I think about you. You
know you had you had two you know, legends parents.
Right when did you first realize that that wasn't normal?
Speaker 23 (01:15:11):
Uh?
Speaker 33 (01:15:11):
In school, like kindergarten for real, Like I was always
type I ain't never really tell people in school, like
I just go to school and just be Mike. But
if I get in trouble or anything, and my mama
has to come up to the school, like the teacher
be done seeing my parents, so she knows who she is,
but she gonna wait to in front of the whole
(01:15:32):
class like such and such a mama. And I might
say yes, I might say no, and then like the
whole class or no, and then they're gonna ask they mama,
and it just be a whole little thing.
Speaker 6 (01:15:44):
So yeah, that's why I realized that.
Speaker 3 (01:15:47):
I was growing up. Did you grow up?
Speaker 5 (01:15:48):
I don't want to say normal because we had two
iconic stars where you always on the road I was
growing up.
Speaker 33 (01:15:54):
No, it was it was uh normal at times. So
like in my earlier years, I went with my mama
like I was, you know, with Grandma Saw. I'm saying Columbus,
South Carolina, they do three to met for sure, And
you know my mama came and got me from Columbia
when I was about twelve or thirteen, moved me to Atlanta.
(01:16:15):
So when I first moved to Atlanta, that was like
a super culture. So I can't like, yeah about out
here got money, like we was staying right like two
those now for pat Man Jones and he was turned
like so it was normal. But I tried to be
as normal as I could. But then when people started
figuring it out, it was just doing extra stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:16:36):
You went back to Columba. Did you go to usc
on my trip? Nah?
Speaker 6 (01:16:39):
Oh no, I go back to Columbia just to visit.
I probably got like a three day limit in Columbia.
Speaker 4 (01:16:49):
What's one lesson your father taught you about like artistry,
and then one lesson your mother taught you about this?
Speaker 1 (01:16:55):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (01:16:57):
My daddy, like we didn't never really.
Speaker 33 (01:17:00):
We sometimes we would discuss like like music notes and
music theory, but we didn't really discuss stuff like that.
He really put me on like mindset, things like that's
how you need to be with your business. Is how
you need to be with your team, Like, it's how
you need to be with your mental when you get overwhelmed.
Speaker 6 (01:17:17):
Things like that. And my mama she ain't have to
she ain't have to show me nothing like I seen it.
Speaker 3 (01:17:22):
Like my mama was like.
Speaker 33 (01:17:26):
She'll be in the hospital and get out the hospital
that night and go to go do the show and
nobody knows. Wow, you know what I'm saying. She was
a real soldier gangst so she ain't have to say nothing.
I was watching, I was living it with her, you
know what I'm saying.
Speaker 20 (01:17:39):
And I saw your video that you posted on your
Instagram and you just well, first of all, I just
want to say, why don't you speak at their funerals?
It you just had there's still like such a joy
there or something that I didn't understand. I've never been
through what you've been through, but I don't know if
you can kind of like talk us through. When we're
seeing you, you're like making everybody laugh and you're with
(01:17:59):
your feeling and it's the push ups and y'all just
having a good time. I'm like, how is he able to,
you know, do that for everybody in a situation he's in.
Speaker 33 (01:18:07):
I mean, that's that's my personality. Like I'm not a complainer,
you know what I'm saying. I'm not like a woe
is Me guy, And I'm always trying to like bring
in the vibes, you know what I'm saying. So in
a moment like this when everything be morbid and dark,
like I'm gonna make everybody laugh, right, you know what
(01:18:27):
I'm saying, because that's how my mama was, Like she
was so funny, like she's the funny person, you know,
but she ain't telling no jokes, you know. So I
just I just always try to keep it light, man.
And you know, even at the funerals, like you know,
not for nothing, the funeral be for the living, they
don't be for the dead. They gone already. So you know,
(01:18:48):
let's let's laugh and talk about the good times. It's like,
you know, as much as we can.
Speaker 4 (01:18:53):
You know what, It's interesting me I can tell how
much faith you have in God because you know, when
you first started the conversation, you said, I mean they
in a better place, like if you a true believe
that's really that really.
Speaker 6 (01:19:06):
Yeah, nah, this a man.
Speaker 33 (01:19:09):
When when they when they when they leave here, you
you you really like, as their son, I think I'm
really seeing how much they was actually shouldering on the
day to day like you know, especially being the music
being and my mama and have been there since forever ago,
and my dad did the same thing, so you know,
ship from the label to label. By the time you
(01:19:30):
get the twenty twenty five, the business be all messed up.
You know what I'm saying. You know, you you try
to fix it and work on it, but they just
unfortunately run out of time. So now you know, I'm
fighting that fight for him. So I think it's I'm like, damn,
y'all were doing it every day like this was y'all
was battling with and still going to work and still
dealing with my on top of it.
Speaker 6 (01:19:51):
I can't cut up, sorry, but yeah, man, they were
they were some soldiers.
Speaker 5 (01:19:56):
Man, what gave you the music? I don't want to
see what gave you the music? But when did you
say I want to start singing? When did you know
you had that you that you could say.
Speaker 33 (01:20:03):
When I when I when I moved to Atlanta and
uh singing the rich kids or turned they were they
were just a little bit older than me and they
had the hottest, the hottest thing in Atlanta. I'm like, oh,
this was going on, man, you know I started I
still was really running from me. But maybe like I
was fifteen sixteen, my Mama bought a whole studio set
(01:20:23):
up for her in the house, and I ain't never
use it. So I started going down there recording myself,
figuring it out, and before you know, I did about
fifty sixty songs I don't win and play her something.
She actually really loved it, you know what I'm saying.
So when she did that, she just put the battery
in my back. I was just going hard from there.
And what did your dad say about your music? Because
(01:20:45):
they said he's a He was a hard critique with
the music. Nah, for sure, Like I'm not gonna lie,
just be real with you. My my daddy didn't really
embrace it and say go ahead and go crazy something.
He didn't do that till after my mom pass Yeah,
like he ain't. He never really wanted me doing music
(01:21:06):
because everything he went through with the business, you know
what I'm saying, He was like, soon, I don't want you,
you know what I'm saying. But it's like, man, probably
I ain't.
Speaker 6 (01:21:15):
I ain't.
Speaker 33 (01:21:16):
Man if I'm gonna work in the wild, like I don't,
I'm tired of the well side of the car center
like on cold you know what I'm saying. But as
my mom passed. He really tapped in. He was like
very impressed, you know what, And that's all I ever
really wanted anyway, just just him here.
Speaker 3 (01:21:36):
How do you call about your own identity? I still
acknowledging the legacy.
Speaker 6 (01:21:40):
You come from.
Speaker 33 (01:21:42):
That's that's been my batter all my life. But I
can't do nothing but be me. Like when you when
you hear my music, it's like you can hear them
in it, but it's still me. I'm doing a whole
different thing, and I ain't trying to battle them or
trying to live up to what they did. They already
did it. They don'et went went to the mountatime. I'm
on my own journey, you know, say Twain, and I can't.
(01:22:06):
I can't run from who I am, and I ain't
trying to. But I'm not trying to. I can't compete
with that, and I don't want to.
Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
Did you do records with them with your parents?
Speaker 33 (01:22:15):
Yeah, my mama last album, me and her, Me and
her got a song together, Me and my mama and
my sister Diamond, we have a song together that I'm released.
Me and my part never got to work together, though.
I think that's I like no one regret. We ain't
never get to do nothing. Yeah, me and my mom
for sure.
Speaker 10 (01:22:35):
I saw you also talk about the you know, the
time that you spent with your dad.
Speaker 20 (01:22:39):
It was like a week or a couple of weeks
that you guys got so and just after your mom
passed away, the time that you guys are spending together,
and you said you finally saw your parents as just
like people because there was a lot of things that
I guess you had one way in your mind. And
then when you and your dad spent that time after
your mom passed away, you saw him so differently.
Speaker 6 (01:22:57):
So yeah, man, you know my dad, he moved in
a certain way. You know. It was like and I
used to always think you just be an istra.
Speaker 33 (01:23:09):
But when we were did my mother's funeral, we had
to repass and my dad was in the city the
whole day. So he hit me like some I'm gonna
put up and pull up and pull up.
Speaker 6 (01:23:19):
But he didn't.
Speaker 33 (01:23:20):
He didn't show up the whole funeral. And then the
whole repass happened here and show up e So I'm like, man,
late again, you know what I'm saying. But he pulled
up like at the last possible second at the repast,
and he came straight to me, and instead of my
instead of my family in South Carolina treating him like
(01:23:40):
a regular person here for the funeral, they all went
mobbed him, like you justin bieb or something. Yeah, And
I'm like, it's a lot of my family that did that.
I don't to this day, you know what I'm saying,
because it's like, man, we just put my mom in
the ground.
Speaker 6 (01:23:56):
So when I seen that, I said, oh, wow, you understood.
Speaker 33 (01:24:00):
This is why he this is why he be moving
in this type of a mantaer because it's like he
ain't want to even make it about him.
Speaker 6 (01:24:05):
He just wanted to be there for me. You know
what I'm saying, How did.
Speaker 3 (01:24:09):
Did you talk to any of your family about that?
And you just just like, you know what action speak.
Speaker 6 (01:24:12):
I don't want to talk. Yeah, I don't talk. They
showed their ass with that one.
Speaker 33 (01:24:18):
He was dealing with cancer at that time, so Wayne
and I ain't looking back at the pictures, it's like, yeah,
he probably was, but I ain't even know, Like I
ain't had no idea, Like I ain't I ain't never
seen my daddy with al meant nothing.
Speaker 6 (01:24:32):
So when they came to that situation, it was it
just it shocked everybody. It definitely shocked me. I ain't.
Speaker 33 (01:24:38):
I ain't never seen my dad's sick or nothing. So
you found out like the rest of the world, damn enough,
like down there, Like, I know, I knew, I knew
he was battling with it, but I didn't know how
bad it was.
Speaker 3 (01:24:50):
Did you get a chance to, like, yeah, say your
good byes and everything.
Speaker 33 (01:24:53):
Yeah, man, spent the last down there, like the last
week together. You know, I was up there with him
and were just just talking and laughing and listening to music.
And you know, I ain't I ain't really wanted to
want him to see see me sad or nothing like that.
So I was just like we you know, we're gonna
vibe out. Me and my little brother, my little sister.
(01:25:16):
We always there.
Speaker 3 (01:25:17):
You know, you don't got to answer this if you
don't want to do.
Speaker 4 (01:25:20):
What was your perspective, like, knowing that you had just
lost your mom earlier this year and now you spending
your last moments with your pop.
Speaker 3 (01:25:27):
Did you even look at it at last moments?
Speaker 23 (01:25:32):
Uh?
Speaker 33 (01:25:33):
Yeah, yeah, And I knew why I was there, you know,
but I don't know, man, that I think that was
just in my mind. I'm like, man, this just what's
going on in my life right now, Like like this
what's going on? I definitely can't question God, you know,
but I'm gonna just take this. I'm gonna really take
(01:25:54):
this time and cherish you.
Speaker 6 (01:25:55):
Know what I'm saying.
Speaker 33 (01:25:56):
And you know, i'm'a'm'a wipe my face up. I started
crying because I don't want him to start crying. And
you know, me and we in the were listening to
his music, were listening in the Earth, Wind and Fire,
you know, like, yeah, it looked at me one time
he looked at me. He like he looking at me, like,
(01:26:17):
damn sign, I see where you at in life like you.
I remember when I was your age. I was I
was just getting ready to drop my second eye. Man,
I just seeing all the pressure that was on me.
I was like, I'm looking at you and like I
see you know what I'm saying. So I don't know
it was I was just being there, being in that moment.
Speaker 20 (01:26:37):
And you have your song A Dove Sore that is
a dedication to your mom and your dad. At what
point did you start writing that song, like after your
mom passed away, Like when were you okay enough to
try and put things in music in further with your show.
Speaker 6 (01:26:50):
It's crazy.
Speaker 33 (01:26:53):
I was in the studio making that song probably about
two days before I got the call about my daddy.
So when I was making originally making the song, it
wasn't even about It wasn't even about my dad. Is
really about my mama the first part. But I was
getting writer's block on it.
Speaker 6 (01:27:11):
So I did that.
Speaker 33 (01:27:13):
Probably two days later. I got the call like you
needed to clean like dots, like you need to get
your ass up there. So I went up to New York,
did that, and it came back the Atlanta. I was
working on it, but I couldn't. I couldn't really come
up with the words. So after we did the funeral
and I can't, I came back, like probably the night
before I flew out to come back home after the funeral,
(01:27:37):
I finally like broke the writer's blocking, was able to
finish the song. So, yeah, man, that I don't be
working that song for the last month for real.
Speaker 20 (01:27:46):
And you said only your song, you say, I know.
God had a chuckle when I told him, I plan. Yeah, man, man,
what were your original plans.
Speaker 6 (01:27:56):
Definitely definitely wouldn't going to two funerals this year, right,
uh with uh?
Speaker 33 (01:28:01):
Now, So my mama passed the morning after my birthday
when they you know, she had a show on my birthday.
And you know, for the last year or two, I've
been opening up for my mom on the show, so
I usually go with her just to make sure she
good first of all, you know, But for some reason,
(01:28:23):
she just didn't want me to come to this one.
You know, she told you that, yeah, And I was like,
right before she left, she like, son, you got your
own career, you're getting ready to do your rollout. You
don't need to come to this, you know, just stay home.
And I'm like, man, you sure, and she like, no,
I'm positive. But she made me come to all the
rehearsals for the show. But the day before she's like, no,
(01:28:43):
I don't want you to come. And you know at
the time in March, my p alrighty. He'll tell you like,
I had a whole all, I'm done roll out, got
my little budget together, and I was getting ready to
do that, and then the morning after everything changed. So
that's why that lyric come from, Like I had a plan,
but God had something different, like, nah, what you thinking.
Speaker 3 (01:29:07):
It ain't even about to be that, brother, because you
have been on you'd have been on the bus with her.
Speaker 6 (01:29:11):
Yeah, man, yeah, yeah, man.
Speaker 4 (01:29:16):
What's one conversation with your with your dad and mom
that changed your direction in life? Not even just musical,
just as a man.
Speaker 6 (01:29:24):
Man, My daddy.
Speaker 33 (01:29:25):
My daddy said to me one day, He's like, son,
you gotta choose your piece over everything.
Speaker 6 (01:29:31):
You know.
Speaker 33 (01:29:32):
I think it was a point in my life where
I was just being poured in so many different ways,
and you know, it was it was it was draining me. Like,
you know, my mama been dealing with you know, her health,
and I've been essentially like a caretaker for her for
the last four or five years.
Speaker 6 (01:29:50):
You know, people didn't know that, and you know she
did a good.
Speaker 33 (01:29:54):
Job of hiding it, but you know, there was a
lot of serious situations and you know I had to,
you know, sacrifice a lot, you know, and I'll do
it again, you know, because that's my mama. I know
she'll do it for me. But you know, yeah, I
was just talking to my dad and he was like, man,
(01:30:14):
you know, you do what you do for your MoMA,
But all the rest of that. Man, you gotta choose
your piece of everything, and I really started implementing that
and help me a lot.
Speaker 4 (01:30:23):
Ten years from now. What do you want people to
say about you that has nothing to do with your parents.
Speaker 33 (01:30:30):
I just want people to say that I was a
genuine guy, or I helped them some type of way,
or you know, a lot of people being hitting me
like throughout this process, like man, I don't know how
you doing, and like, man, I ain't doing nothing but
a whole lot of crying and praying. Like if you know,
if I could be a if you can look at
(01:30:51):
me and think you can get through because I'm getting through,
then you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (01:30:55):
That's fine.
Speaker 3 (01:30:57):
Right there, you have it, Twain, It's the breakfast Club.
Speaker 12 (01:31:01):
Good morning morning.
Speaker 5 (01:31:02):
Everybody's DJ, Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy.
Speaker 3 (01:31:06):
We are the breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest
with Lauren.
Speaker 10 (01:31:08):
Lauren becoming a straight fast.
Speaker 2 (01:31:12):
She gets them. Somebody that knows, somebody gets to detail.
Speaker 10 (01:31:15):
I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 3 (01:31:18):
She'd be having the latest on this.
Speaker 6 (01:31:21):
Lad The Latest with Lauren la Rosa.
Speaker 4 (01:31:23):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you
have a little bit of everything.
Speaker 26 (01:31:26):
So it's the latest on the Breakfast Club Talk.
Speaker 20 (01:31:30):
So Howard Stern had to address some accusations that Kim
Kardashian made last week on episode seven of their reality
show So Got Come on Hulu. They have a big
partnership with Hulu. So Kim K was on the show
when she was talking about her twenty sixteen Parish robbery
when she was robbed in her hotel room for all
the jewelry, and she alleges that Howard Stern basically didn't
(01:31:53):
believe her and made a whole mockery of it on
his show. Let's take a listen to Kim K talking
about Howard Stern.
Speaker 8 (01:31:57):
Howard Stern was like famously mocking it all the time
and saying that it was just I'm sick and it's
such a joke and I made it all up.
Speaker 9 (01:32:06):
I remember, he was so defiant about it.
Speaker 3 (01:32:10):
Okay, yes, okay.
Speaker 20 (01:32:12):
So she said this, and she's also said something similar
around Kanye West as well too. But so she said this,
and then Howard Stern said, oh no, we're not gonna
let that fly, not at all, because that is not
what I say. So he responds with his original comments,
because you know his show was recorded. He responds with
his original comments. Let's take a listen to the original comments.
Speaker 23 (01:32:31):
If this woman was robbed at gunpoint by a bunch
of dudes and they threw her in a bathtub and
tied her up or whatever they did, I mean.
Speaker 3 (01:32:39):
That is that is frightening.
Speaker 23 (01:32:42):
If it is a farce game, really they should go
to jail for that.
Speaker 12 (01:32:46):
Well, I don't believe it is.
Speaker 14 (01:32:48):
But you know, there were no security cameras in the area,
so there's no footage.
Speaker 6 (01:32:54):
Of what went on.
Speaker 3 (01:32:55):
The one time the Kardashians don't have a camera something.
Speaker 2 (01:32:58):
Yeah, it's something really going on, something real.
Speaker 3 (01:33:02):
We live in an era where you should question everything.
Speaker 4 (01:33:05):
Yeah, especially because and everything you see nowadays because of
the era that we live in. And she's a reality
show start, So why wouldn't you think everything of the
story she said mockery.
Speaker 5 (01:33:14):
I thought I was gonna hear him be like, Oh,
I thought it was going to be something. He basically said.
He literally, if it happens, it's frightening, and I feel
sorry for But he was like, something doesn't sound right,
what's wrong?
Speaker 3 (01:33:25):
But he said something said.
Speaker 14 (01:33:28):
Robin said, I don't think it's you know, I don't
think it's untrue, and he said I don't either.
Speaker 3 (01:33:31):
He literally yes, He said, if it happened, is tragic,
if it was a farce.
Speaker 20 (01:33:36):
And let's just to be clear because in another episode
of The Kardashians, she brought up her ex. She doesn't
say Kanye West, but during that time she was with Kanye,
and she says that even her ex accused her of
faking the robbery for a TV show. Around that time,
people did believe that Kim had faked the robbery for
the show because they thought that it was very ironic
that there were no cameras with her and that there
was no security with her, knowing that she had all
(01:33:58):
the jewelry in the room and you know, all the
things that people knew she would be.
Speaker 3 (01:34:02):
I had dropped her off and made sure she was
in our room, so her security.
Speaker 20 (01:34:05):
Made sure she was in her room and then went
out with her sisters, and which wasn't unnormal for them
because the security guard would secure the whole family. But
people were just saying right, so yes, But people were
people at that time, and a lot of outlets.
Speaker 10 (01:34:16):
It wasn't just Howard Stern.
Speaker 20 (01:34:17):
A lot of outlets were just trying to put the
pieces together and saying how far fetched this was, and
they didn't believe her.
Speaker 10 (01:34:23):
Some people didn't believe her.
Speaker 20 (01:34:24):
But Howard Stern comes back in on his show and
basically says, if I had something to say, I've said
a lot of crazy things.
Speaker 6 (01:34:29):
I get to it.
Speaker 10 (01:34:30):
Let's take a listen to Howard Stern.
Speaker 23 (01:34:32):
On the latest episode of The Kim Kardashian Show. She
accused me of saying that she faked her Paris robbery attempt,
and she's very emotional about it. Fortunately, anyway, in this case,
our show is taped, so we went back and looked
up what I said, and nothing could be further from
the truth. Now tell me if I'm wrong. I would
characterize that discussion as a very fair assessment that some
(01:34:54):
people are saying it's fake, which was true, and we said,
we don't think it's fake.
Speaker 6 (01:34:58):
We think that she was.
Speaker 23 (01:35:00):
She went through something horrible. Some guys came into her
room and threw in a bath having pointed a gun
at her, and I said, that's really frightening. By the way,
let me say something, I have said so many awful
things in my career. You don't need to make up stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:35:13):
And also the fact that she put words in Howard's
mouth crazy for TV is exactly why Howard thought that
the robbery was probably a storyline as well.
Speaker 10 (01:35:22):
Now, y'all see where I was getting bringing this in.
Speaker 20 (01:35:24):
Because of all the people that you're going to say
said something, Howard Stern is not the one nobody at all.
Speaker 10 (01:35:30):
He gonna clear enough instantly or repeat what he said,
so you know.
Speaker 3 (01:35:33):
That's not what I was saying.
Speaker 4 (01:35:35):
And the fact that she put words in Howard Stern's
mouth for TV is exactly why Howard thought that the
robbery was for TV as well.
Speaker 14 (01:35:41):
And then all the create storyline right right, And then
all the people who did say it was fake like publicly,
and you didn't go at them, but you went.
Speaker 10 (01:35:50):
At Howard Stern who didn't say it was fake.
Speaker 3 (01:35:52):
But it was a lot of people that did well,
by the way, just asking questions too. By the way,
Kim did that for exactly this.
Speaker 4 (01:35:59):
We want to use Howard is this startline because I
know how we're going to go back and talk about
it or it'll become a talking piece on the other show.
Speaker 3 (01:36:05):
Because I had to ask you, what what what? What
is that?
Speaker 23 (01:36:08):
What is y.
Speaker 10 (01:36:11):
Yeah, it's been long, right, it used to come right.
Speaker 2 (01:36:14):
No, they were wrong.
Speaker 20 (01:36:15):
They had that big relationship with Ryan Seacrest on E.
But yeah, So speaking of other things in the news
that might be real, might not be U. Joe Tacopino,
Wendy William's attorney, was on Nightline and he's saying that
she'll be out of her guardianship potentially this year, which
is like, we only have weeks left of this year.
Speaker 10 (01:36:32):
Let's take a listen to Joe.
Speaker 16 (01:36:33):
What's the plan you have to get her out of
the guardianship and when can we expect.
Speaker 26 (01:36:37):
Some movement in court?
Speaker 12 (01:36:38):
The plan is this, there are guardianship attorneys and we're
watching and waiting.
Speaker 3 (01:36:43):
They've a short Wendy by years.
Speaker 6 (01:36:45):
Then she'll be out of guardianship.
Speaker 3 (01:36:46):
No guardianship should feel like a.
Speaker 16 (01:36:47):
Sentence, and honestly, when these does, when these feels like
a center.
Speaker 3 (01:36:52):
She said it was eighteen thousand dollars a month she
was paying this prossiblity.
Speaker 26 (01:36:55):
Imagine just imagine her money, not the state's money, her money.
Speaker 5 (01:37:00):
But if she does get free of this, is there
still going to be somebody that's watching over her to
make sure that everything is quote unquote Okay, So.
Speaker 20 (01:37:06):
From what I was told once I saw this, because
that's a pretty tight timeline to you know, say, I
was told that if that even happens this year, and
it probably won't, yes, it would just be a limited guardianship,
so there would be somebody with her to still figure
out certain things like financial decisions. You know, she also
has like she's openly talked about dealing with substance abuse, right,
(01:37:27):
so someone checking in on her when it comes to that,
she'll be able to come and go like we've seen
her do you know, more recently, but there will be
somebody there. But from you know, the way that they're
angling this is that she's going to be one hundred
percent free, and I was told that that is not
what it's going to be.
Speaker 5 (01:37:40):
What'll be dope is is if you know, when she
was coming up, Charlemagne lived in her basement. Charlemagne kind
of returns to favor and allows her to live in
his basement, and he got a nice, nice.
Speaker 10 (01:37:52):
Finished, finished our basement.
Speaker 3 (01:37:54):
You put, win, I don't even have a business, that's right.
You have an addict.
Speaker 10 (01:38:00):
I've got no space for Wendy.
Speaker 14 (01:38:01):
I'm talking about a guest from yesterday. You no, you
don't line really fake.
Speaker 20 (01:38:10):
Matt Barnes decided to clear up again some rumors about
him paying an AI model sixty one thousand dollars because
you've showing extort them allegedly.
Speaker 10 (01:38:19):
Let's take a listen.
Speaker 19 (01:38:20):
I sat back dealing with personal real family healing and
making sure my kids are good and just trying to
get my life back in order, while I sat back
and watched the internet lie about me.
Speaker 3 (01:38:31):
The whole year, live for me being gay to me.
Speaker 19 (01:38:35):
Talking of showing an abortion to me, telling some girl
how to do a reality show. And then I get
back from Dubai and I get back and I see,
all of a sudden, I'm sewing an AI model or
I got played by AI models, and all these little
bottom feeding blogs pick it up. Shout out to the
ones that are real and know from the or at
least check you guys believe that I got played by
(01:38:56):
AI model. I'm suing them. You see someone like Gilbert,
And I had a conversation with Gilbert. He addressed the
bullet and it kind of was it from there and
caught fire. And I'm talking him bro like, after all
we've been through, Bro, tapping with me and see if
it's real, and he said, he apologized, didn't know it
was that deep. But y'all can't believe everything you love.
Speaker 10 (01:39:15):
So he didn't get got by y'all out he did.
It was just a girl from Instagram. You were about
to say something. I'll explain to us.
Speaker 4 (01:39:21):
I don't know what none of the stories are, but
it's just because Matt Bondes is hot, you know what
I'm saying, that All the Smoke podcasts is hot. Like
I was watching the fight this weekend Lamar Roach versus
a Island Cruise and they had the All the Smoke
logo in the ring.
Speaker 6 (01:39:37):
It is what it is.
Speaker 4 (01:39:38):
They had their logo in the ring too. But All
the Smokers is a hot podcast. And when you a
hot podcast, people are going to use you for content.
Speaker 6 (01:39:44):
That's just the way it is.
Speaker 4 (01:39:46):
So Matt should take that as a compliment that all
of these rumors and all this gossip has been about
been spreading about him all year.
Speaker 10 (01:39:51):
I think the only issue is that it affects his
family unit.
Speaker 20 (01:39:54):
Because he was saying, so there was a real girl
that him and his exdad like took a little break
from each other.
Speaker 6 (01:39:59):
He was with her.
Speaker 10 (01:40:00):
He posted a video about this back in November.
Speaker 20 (01:40:03):
He ended up paying that girl because when he got
back with his ex, who was pregnant at the time,
and he told her, she said, I'm going to release
these sex messages. So he paid her because he didn't
want it to come out, because it was a high
risk pregnancy and because of how hot things are with
him now. Everybody picks up his stuff, so he was
trying to, you know, clean it up, and it just
took its own life from there.
Speaker 10 (01:40:20):
But the girl is a real girl. He's said that
multiple times.
Speaker 20 (01:40:23):
That's why he's like, just ask me to fact shaw,
I'll tell you all what's going on, because he does
address a lot of his own stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:40:28):
Well, make sure you subscribe to all the smoke podcasts

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
