day to serve our beautiful listeners.

Speaker 4 (00:26):
I thank God for another day of life.

Speaker 5 (00:28):
I truly, truly, truly mean that, man, because when you
hear news like you heard yesterday about the tragic passing
of Malcolm Jamal Warner, then you know that life is
not promised in any way, shape or form. Like there's
just really nothing you can do to duck death when
it's your time.

Speaker 6 (00:49):
No, very sad, very sad, Rest in peace to Malcolm
Jamal Warner. Condolences to his family.

Speaker 5 (00:55):
It's just sad because you think about all the situations
that you try to avoid as a person, right, like
you know, just to prolong this thing called life, right,
But damn you on family vacation, right with your family, right,
your wife and your daughter is doing what we all
do on vacation in the water, enjoying the swim and
a current takes you out.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
Pos you in, man, Come on, man, pose you in?

Speaker 2 (01:18):
Come on man.

Speaker 5 (01:19):
That's why I got you know, I'll always be having
these conversations with myself just about karma and energy. I
don't know if I believe in any of that. You know,
I live it because I feel like, you know, that's
what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to, you know,
put out what you want to get back.

Speaker 7 (01:32):
But I don't. I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
I don't know if any of that.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Really it's true. Yeah, for transcends.

Speaker 6 (01:38):
I don't know what you live right regardless, because just
want to be a good person, right. You know the
thing with Malcolm Jamo one, of course, we all grew
up on him, right, so we've seen him grow through
his shows, through you know the cos we showed through
Malcolm and Eddy through all the things that he did.
So it almost feels like you have a personal relationship
with him absolutely. What what makes it even crazier is,

(01:58):
you know, I was on my book to or three
weeks ago and I just did his podcast and we
sat down for about would say about two hours, and
we didn't talk about music. We didn't talk about the industry.
All we did was just talking about being a dad
and how happy he was being a dad. And he
was talking telling about his relationships and that he got
married at I think at like forty five years old

(02:19):
and he found the one and he was so excited
and just so proud of his family, and he liked
to do the little things he like, he like, you know,
it's cool when when you run into another dad that's
like you, that who cares about all this other stuff.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
You just care about being a father and showing up.

Speaker 7 (02:32):
And that's most most good fathers care about being a father.

Speaker 5 (02:35):
Most good fathers don't care about anything else except being
there for they.

Speaker 6 (02:39):
That is correct sons and dogs. But a lot of
people are they say they're a good father.

Speaker 7 (02:43):
They're not.

Speaker 5 (02:44):
We don't even talk about it exactly. If you're not
doing those little things, you're not a good But we.

Speaker 6 (02:48):
Were talking about just you know, like you know, going
to your dad your daughter's dance and knowing the dance
and you know your daughter's chair, and how proud you
are when they win. The actually been a and we
sat there for two hours and me Gia and himself
and we just spoke about it. It was just amazing conversation.
So when I seen that yesterday, it hit very close
to home because I'm like, damn, he wasn't doing nothing.

Speaker 5 (03:11):
Wow, That's what I'm saying, Like he wasn't. We do
all of these something crazy? We do, all these things.
We do, all of these things the prolong our life
and all of these things we try to avoid with Literally,
you just on family vacation with your wife and your daughter,
and you know, something like that happened to you, something
that tragic happened to you, So you know, you just
can't avoid it. So every single day that you wake up,
you should really truly thank God for this thing called.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
Life because you just never ever, ever ever know.

Speaker 7 (03:38):
That's right.

Speaker 6 (03:38):
Well, we're going to replay one of our interviews with
him when he pulled up on us.

Speaker 5 (03:42):
You know, the first time Malcolm Jamal wanted ever came
up here was in twenty twenty three when we relocated
to this new studio we called the Black Mothership. It
was January of twenty twenty three. Like the first week
of January. We had just got back from vacation. He
was the first guest to bless this new studios, right.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
He was the first guest.

Speaker 6 (04:02):
So we're gonna get that back on and you know,
just celebrate his life a little bit. And if you
get an opportunity, go to his YouTube page where he
has his podcast. You can see some of those those
dope conversations that he had and just being a husband
and a father and I think which is crazy. I
think the last one that he did was me and
Gear my wife, So definitely check those out. We're gonna

(04:23):
get that on this morning. We got front page news next.
Don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Good morning.
Everybody's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front
page news. Now, some quick sports.

Speaker 6 (04:37):
Chris Paul has agreed to go to the LA Clippers
for his last season. This will be his twenty first
NBA season. He's saying after this is rap. So he's
he's playing for the Clippers for his last season.

Speaker 8 (04:48):
Yah.

Speaker 5 (04:48):
I mean he had a great run with the Clippers.
That's right way back when so and the Clippers a
championship contender. So I like to see people that have
had great careers that have never won rings at the
end of their careers.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
That's what they should be trying to do. Winn.

Speaker 5 (05:00):
I hate when they just be on some team that
you know, don't have a chance in hell. But the
Clippers they got a chop. Yeah, they got Bradley Bill
now too, Yeah, they.

Speaker 4 (05:07):
Got a Shawan Lennard. What's up, Morgan James Harden?

Speaker 9 (05:10):
All right, Okay, I can keep clocking it. I like that.

Speaker 7 (05:13):
All right.

Speaker 9 (05:13):
Hey, y'all, how y'all feeling on the Tuesday?

Speaker 4 (05:15):
Good?

Speaker 10 (05:16):
Good, good, All right, let's get in TuS First on
front page, the former Louisville police officer convicted in relation
to the death of Brionna Taylor is being sentenced to
thirty three months in prison. Brett Hankinson was found guilty
of violating Taylor's civil rights when he fired blindly into
her apartment in twenty twenty during a botched raid. Now,
his bullets didn't hit anyone, and last week the Department

(05:38):
of Justice recommended he only received one day behind bars
before sentencing. Four protesters were arrested outside the courthouse, including
Breonna Taylor's aunt, attorney Benjamin Crump, Breonna Taylor's mother, Tamika Palmer,
and her boyfriend Kenny Walker, who was there, spoke out
outside or spoke outside the courthouse during a press conference

(05:59):
following the sentence. And here's what Breonna tailor excuse me,
here's what attorney ben Crump had to say about that sentence.

Speaker 11 (06:06):
We thanked the judge for her attention to detail and
for setting the record straight that he was convicted of
depriving Brehanna Taylor of her civil rights four Amendment seizure.
And that is a crime that we acknowledge in America

(06:28):
that you go to prison for. So he is going
to prison, and we have to keep watching as to win.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
He is going to go to prison.

Speaker 10 (06:40):
So Tamika Palmer, Brehanna Taylor's mother, and her boyfriend Kenny Walker,
also spoke outside the courthouse and they talked about whether
or not they felt like they received justice. Let's take
a listen to their comments.

Speaker 12 (06:52):
Like, we got something, Yeah, we got something. I don't
think it was it was a fair sentencing, but it
was a start.

Speaker 13 (07:02):
I'm grateful for the small piece of justice that we got.
It's definitely not what I was expecting, and Bret Hankinson
told me I was gonna go to jail for the
rest of my life. So I definitely feel some type
of something to see him going.

Speaker 5 (07:17):
For Yeah, there's so much going on in the world
that I forgot that trial was even happening, and I
forgot what cop was on trial for so less than
three years. Is that the appropriate sentence? I mean, if
they they're happy about it, I mean, like we should
be too, right.

Speaker 10 (07:33):
I guess, you know, it's it's certainly a stark contrast
from one day, so you know, thirty three months goes
to show that, you know, some some at least some
justice can be served or at least to your point,
the family is semi satisfied.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
So yeah.

Speaker 10 (07:48):
So in other news, uh, some civil rights activists are
criticizing the release of Martin Luther King Junior's assassination file.
The Trump administration released thousands of pages yesterday.

Speaker 5 (07:56):
That's not what the screech asking for. Try to They're
not going to deflect. Don't try to distract. That's not
what the screet's asking for. The screeches stein files.

Speaker 10 (08:06):
I was gonna get to that, but yeah, pretty much
that's what that's what.

Speaker 9 (08:10):
That's what it is.

Speaker 10 (08:10):
So the Trump administration released thousands of pages yesterday, all
related to King's nineteen sixty eight death. Atlanta's King Center
called it ill timed. Director of National Intelligence Tulsea Gabbert
said the documents detail the FBI's investigation into the assassination, discussion,
potential leads and information about the assassin, James Earl Ray's
former cellmate, and more. What Revernol Sharpton called it a

(08:33):
desperate attempt to distract the firestorm over Trump not unsealing
files over Jeffrey Epstein's death.

Speaker 5 (08:41):
Yeah, MAGA did not call. MAGA did not call for
no MLK junior assassination files. That's not what MAGA wants.
Listen to your base, Trump, MAGA wants them Epstein files.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
Okay, no for real.

Speaker 10 (08:52):
But House Speaker Mike Johnson says there won't be a
vote on releasing those files related to Epstein before lawmakers
at least go on break and on August. So we'll
have to wait to see if those files get released
following the August recess.

Speaker 5 (09:06):
I told y'all last week, early last week, when all
of this first started happening, I was like, you gonna
see so much flooding of the zone, meaning there's gonna
be so many different news stories that come out that
try to distract and deflect from the Mepstine files. And boy,
he's been throwing some stuff against the wall, but it
ain't nothing sticking because everybody want to want to see
the Mepstine files.

Speaker 9 (09:24):
The people want to know. All right, y'all. So that's
your front Pace news for six am. At seven.

You know.

Speaker 5 (16:34):
It's like yo, man, you we tried so hard to
avoid putting ourselves in situations that could be potentially dangerous.
There's nothing that has your guard down more and makes you,
you know, feel safer than being on vacation with your
family swimming in the water. And that's just the active
nature that you know, you can't control. My god, my God,

Speaker 22 (17:56):
So we want to take some time to send a
rest in peace and just pay respects tribute to Malcolm
Jamal Warner, Emmy nominated actor, musician, poet, father, husband. He
was of course beloved for his role as THEO on
The Cosby Show, which earned him a nomination for Outstanding
Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series at the thirtyeth Emmy's

(18:17):
You Know. He also starred in the sitcom Malcolm and Eddie.
In twenty fifteen, he received a Grammy Award for Best
Traditional R and B Performance for the songs Jesus Jesus'
Children alongside Robert Glasspier. In twenty twenty four June and
twenty twenty four, he decided to launch his podcast Not
All Hood, and he talked a lot about why this

(18:38):
podcast was so special to him because it's centered around
discussing the lives and experiences of Black Americans, which he
was really big on doing and platforming.

Speaker 15 (18:47):
So I want to, you know, right.

Speaker 22 (18:50):
Now, let's take a listen to Malcolm talking about why
he was so excited about fatherhood and being a husband.

Speaker 23 (18:55):
A sick listen, because we're like I met my wife,
I was forty five, and I had spent I spent
more of my adult years in long term relationships than not.
But when I met my wife for forty five, I
was like, I got it. Everybody said when they say
when you know, you know, and that always sounded and

(19:16):
being in these long term relationships that always sounded like
a really cool concept. But when I met my wife,
I was I had there was you know. After a
couple months, I was like, oh, that's what.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
The you know, I get it.

Speaker 23 (19:29):
But when I think about had I gotten married any earlier,
I know, I definitely would not have been as effective
of a husband and father as I am.

Speaker 14 (19:40):
Now.

Speaker 6 (19:42):
Yeah, yeah, that was when we actually did his podcast,
Me and My Wife Kid. We would you know from
our book tour, but he was just talking about how
much he loved his wife and how much he loved
his daughter, and how he enjoyed being a father and
that was like the highlight of his life at that time,
you know, doing those events, going to the school and
do things like that, and that's what we were really
sat there for two hours and just discussed that me

(20:03):
and my wife and him just discussed being a fault
and being a relationship so solid.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
Good brother.

Speaker 22 (20:08):
Yes, And when we talk about I know you guys
were talking about earlier when we opened the show this morning,
just about kind of like some of the circumstances I
do want to just feel in some of that of
like what happened as well, because we talk about like family,
you guys were talking about family vacation earlier. Malcolm Jamal
Warner was on a family vacation Costa Rica with his
family when you know, the drowning incident happened. So you know,

(20:30):
people for sure y'all talking about sending prayers yesterday. I
think I know for me that was one of the
first things I did when I heard the story was
pray for his wife and his daughter.

Speaker 15 (20:38):
And what also insane is he he talked a lot about.

Speaker 22 (20:43):
The fact that he waited because he wanted to make
sure that he got it right when he became a dad.
He became a dad later in life, and there was
a moment on his Instagram that he shared. It was
from his daughter's birthday where he he had like this
sunflower in his in his ear and people were like,
why do you have the sunflower? He began to talk
about you know, let's take listening. He talks about his
relationship with his daughter a bit more.

Speaker 23 (21:04):
Yes, I got the flower on my air to there's
my daughter's birthday.

Speaker 7 (21:08):
She put the flower there, so I'm walking in it. It's
a beautiful day here in Atlata.

Speaker 23 (21:12):
I just wanted to shout out and just spread some
love and some good cheer and you know, life, life
is out here, lifing right for me and for everybody else.
But just wanted to remind you, as I remind myself,
that no matter what's going on, there's always a reason
to smile.

Speaker 7 (21:30):
Like if you just take a minute to stop, it
takes stock. I guarantee you can find at at least
one reason to smile.

Speaker 23 (21:38):
And if for some reason you can't find a reason
to smile, then that's probably the best time to be
the reason for somebody else to smile. Buy a smile
for yourself, and be a reason for someone else to smile.

Speaker 7 (21:51):
That's all I gotten of love, because it's been a minute.
Peace been love, and I'll be excellent man. Blessings to
that brother.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Man.

Speaker 5 (21:59):
I'm telling you, man, we spend all this time trying
to avoid potential dangerous situations just so we can prolong
this thing called life. And this brother was just out
with his family on vacation doing something we all doing,
were on vacation, swimming, and something tragic like that happens.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
Man, life is not promiss to anybody.

Speaker 6 (22:18):
Yeah, they said, I guess when it happened to somebody
else was taken to the hospital.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
Was that a family member or that was just a person?

Speaker 22 (22:24):
It hasn't That person hasn't been confirmed as a family member.
They're just being listed as a second individual from the
reports that I saw. They were injured during the incident.
The according to the Costa Rican Red Cross, the second
individual was rushed to a local clinic and it's in
critical condition.

Speaker 15 (22:39):
Their current condition as of right now is unknown.

Speaker 22 (22:42):
But yeah, they're I mean, of course they're doing their investigation,
trying to figure out more of what happened and all
of the things. But Malcolm Jamal Warner was declared, you know,
dead at the scene, and then this person was ticket
to the hospital.

Speaker 4 (22:54):
And really pray for that brother.

Speaker 8 (22:55):
Man.

Speaker 5 (22:55):
Before you run the social media and post about how
this situation makes you feel, take the time to really
pray for that brother, Malcolm Jamal. Want to take the
time to really pray for that brother's family. I know
we feel like we knew Malcolm Jamal Warner because of
the roles he played. Yeah, but that was a man
with a real family who knew him in a real way,
and they are going through it in ways that we
don't understand. So take the time to think about them

(23:16):
before you think about yourself. And I was thinking about
his father, man, because he spoke about his father so
much and how much his father, you know, poured into
him and now his father has to bury his child.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 22 (23:28):
Anyway, he actually sat down with Melissa Ford and he
talked a lot about his relationship with his dad and
his legacy that he wanted to leave.

Speaker 15 (23:34):
We have that clip. Let's take a listen.

Speaker 24 (23:37):
Life, it's it's fragile and in the blink of an eye,
you never you never know. So speaking of legacy, what
do you hope that your legacy is going to be?

Speaker 7 (23:49):
Man?

Speaker 23 (23:49):
Because I'm fifty four, I think about that a lot.
So I remember my mother said to me one time
that mister Cosby gave you immortality facts.

Speaker 15 (24:05):
That is very true, right.

Speaker 7 (24:08):
So I know, on one lane.

Speaker 23 (24:11):
There is there's legacy there, but also because my life,
you know, those former years were always about life beyond Cosby, right,
So I feel like, okay, there's that legacy there. But
then because I've had this full life, you know, after
that show, there's another lane of legacy that I get

(24:36):
to leave and I'm still working through that.

Speaker 7 (24:42):
Yes, you just got to live.

Speaker 5 (24:46):
Be intentional about living, Be intentional about being a good person,
because you want to be a good person. You know,
being a good person doesn't mean, you know, bad things
won't happen to you. You know, you just hope they won't.
But being a good person doesn't guarantee. You just got
to be a good person for the sake of being
a good.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Person for humanity.

Speaker 7 (25:03):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
Rest in peace, and again, condolences to that brother's family.

Speaker 4 (25:06):
He's so saying, yeah, all right, well.

Speaker 6 (25:09):
That is the latest with Lauren In about I would
say about ten minutes, we're gonna replay the interview when
he came up here. He was the first guest in
our new studio January of twenty twenty three, and we're
gonna get that back on. He was so appreciative of
that of both interviews. He came up here of the
conversations and.

Speaker 7 (25:24):
We played his music.

Speaker 6 (25:25):
He was so excited and he just said it just
sparked so much conversation, so much talk online, and we're
gonna get that back on. So don't go anywhere. Front
page News, it's next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
the Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.
Move everybody is DJ Envy, Jess Hilarius, Charlamage and the guy.
We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get back in some

(25:45):
front page news now.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
The quick sports solution to Chris Paul. He's agreed to deal.

Speaker 6 (25:51):
I'm not sure what the deal was, but his last
deal because it's the last expected final season he's gonna
be playing with the Clippers. So congratulationss to Chris Paul.
Had a amazing career. What's up Morgan?

Speaker 10 (26:02):
Hey y'all, Hey, So, do want to give a quick
weather alert, just kind of a heads up that severe
weather could cause flash flooding in the Midwest and on
the East Coast this week. Elsewhere a heat dome could
send temperatures soaring into triple digits. The flooding risk is
greatest across Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia. So

(26:22):
please take hey to any local alerts that come to
your phone and your TVs and things like that through
across media. Meanwhile, places like Kansas City in Dallas could
see one hundred degrees or more. Forecasters say the heat
wave may stick around for a while thanks to drought
and limited rainfall in places like Kansas and Nebraska. In
other news, the White House is blaming the policies or

(26:45):
Biden policies for excuse me, the White House is blaming
the policies a former President Biden for the shooting of
an off duty police patrol officer in New York City
at off duty border patrol officer. Now spokesp person House
Press Secretary Caroline Levitt says Biden's immigration policies allowed for
the suspect and illegal immigrants to enter the US and

(27:07):
Rome free. She added that that's the reason why President
Trump won twenty twenty four's election.

Speaker 9 (27:12):
Let's take a listen to her comments.

Speaker 25 (27:14):
Well, this tragedy that took place over the weekend at
the hands of yet another illegal alien invader who was
allowed into our country and released by the Biden administration,
and this is exactly why President Trump was elected into
office with an overwhelming mandate to secure our homeland.

Speaker 10 (27:32):
So the officer was shot in the face and is
expected to survive that incident. Meanwhile, Border Enforcement Director Tom
Homan and Homeland Security Secretary Christy Noam visited the border
patrol officer. Now Russo from the Department of Homeland Security
calls the border patrol officer a hero, while New York
City Mayor Eric Adams says the goal is to get

(27:53):
dangerous people off the streets.

Speaker 9 (27:55):
Let's take a.

Speaker 10 (27:56):
Listen to their comments in part. That's Frank Russom the
Department of Homeland Security and New York City Mayor Eric Adams.

Speaker 14 (28:03):
He did exactly what we ask of all of our
officers under the circumstances.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
He executed our mission, which is to protect the country.

Speaker 26 (28:13):
Migrating asylum seekers who are bringing violence and really tarnish
with the reputation of those who come to this country
to pursue the American dream.

Speaker 10 (28:26):
So the NYPD alleged Miguel Francisco Nunyez shot the border
patrol officer who returned fire during an apparent botched robbery.
Nunyez has been wanted for numerous crimes in New York.
President Trump says Mora was apprehended at the border for
illegally coming in in twenty twenty three under the Biden administration,
but instead of being deported, he was released.

Speaker 4 (28:49):
Its horrible what happened to that officer.

Speaker 5 (28:51):
And I feel like the climbate of the country we
live in is what leads, you know, to stuff like that.
And it's sad that you know that situation is going
to be politicized, you know, for the next few days.

Speaker 9 (29:03):
Yeah, absolutely well, switching gears. Let's take a listen.

Speaker 11 (29:06):
Listen up.

Speaker 10 (29:06):
If you use power stick deodorant and then I'm gonna
get up out of here.

Speaker 5 (29:09):
Nobody ut have you smelled these people? Have you been
outside lately?

Speaker 10 (29:15):
So power stick deodorant loser, Power stick deodorant users, not
calling you losers, but listen up. Over sixty seven thousand
cases of roll on deodorant sold nationally have been voluntarily
recalled over a manufacturing defect. A report from the FDA
says a voluntary recall was initiated by ap Dovel LLC,
the manufacturer of power Stick deodorant. Now more than sixty

(29:38):
seven thousand cases of three different types of anti perspriant
are being recalled. The affective products include power Stick for Her,
roll On Anti Perspriant deodorant, power Powder Fresh, power Stick
Invisible Protection, roll On Anti Anti Perspriant deodorant Spring Fresh,
and Powerstick Original Nourishing Invisible Protection roll On Anti per

(30:00):
s Print deodorant. An FDA report says the deodorant what's
recalled for c g MP deviations, meaning the manufacturer failed
to maintain some sort of good manufacturing current practices in
some way. So if you use Powerstick, just go ahead
and throw it out of the way or take it
back to your retailer. And yeah, don't use that because

(30:20):
there's a recall underway for that, and maybe switch friends.

Speaker 5 (30:22):
I'm gonna be honest with you. Now is not the
time to be recalling deodorant.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
Okay. We need all the deodorant on the streets that
we get. Yes, yes, now is not the time. Okay.
I don't care if you know what it may be
causing people. Okay, it's if it's calling them not to stink,
it's worth it.

Speaker 10 (30:41):

Speaker 6 (30:59):
Tuesday, you too, And I just want to say before
we continue on, I just want to say thank you God.
And the reason I'm saying thank you heard the story
this morning coming to work about this uncle who threw
his niece down the garbage chute in Staten Island. They
don't know the reason why, but he threw his one
year old niece down the garbage chute and she survived

(31:20):
with no issues and no problems.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
How crazy is that?

Speaker 6 (31:23):
Like through the gard like I don't know how many floors,
but through the garbage shoot.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
They had to go rescue her and she was fine.
So I just wanted to say that happened in Staton
Island yesterday. I'm trying to be everywhere today. But God
still got a plan for her, That's right, So Jesus all.

Speaker 6 (31:35):
Right now when we come back, Malcolm Jamal Warner, he
passed away, Rest in peace. He did the first interview
in our new studio here, but two years.

Speaker 5 (31:43):
Ago, twenty twenty three. Year was January two thousand, twenty three.
It was the first week back from a vacation for us.
And yeah, he was the first guess in this new studio,
and I mean he is when we sit down and
we have these long form conversations like this is the
reason I love long form conversations, you.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
Know, because of.

Speaker 5 (32:01):
Sadly moments like this, you know, because you get to
know people in those long form conversations, and you know,
when people passed or when you want to learn more
about a person, you tap into those long form conversations.
So I'm happy that a lot of people heard the
interview and watched the interview before he passed away. But
you know, now that you know he's gone, we can,
you know, pay tribute to him, you know, in a

(32:22):
real way by rerunning this interview.

Speaker 6 (32:23):
And when I seen him a couple of weeks ago,
he was so appreciative because he was like, you guys
actually played my music, and he was like, people were
calling me about the music, and.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
He went viral for something he said. I can't remember
what he said.

Speaker 6 (32:34):
There was a lot of things in that conversation that
he went viral for something, but he was like, you know,
the good thing about it is he say he doesn't
really care. He didn't care what people said, but he
just cared about it. Opened up conversation and he was
just so happy for that interview. So definitely, rest in peace.
We're gonna get that interview back home when we come back.
It's the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Good morning, the Breakfast.

Speaker 6 (32:52):
Club owning Everybody's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne to God.
We are the Breakfast Club. Rest in peace to Malcolm
Jamal Warner. We're going to get back on an interview
when he was up here. He actually when we moved
into the new studio, he was our first guest. So
let's get into that interview. Now it's the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
We got a special guest in the building.

Speaker 5 (33:12):
You know what's interesting I was thinking about, you know, organically,
who is going to be the first guest in the
new Breakfast Club studio, Because to me, that's important because
you're setting off a new generation, you're setting off for
a new chapter.

Speaker 4 (33:24):
So who would be the first guest on it? We
should be on it? Come on, man grew up on him.

Speaker 6 (33:31):
Come on, man, Ladies and gentlemen, Malcolm Jamal Wannaway, you.

Speaker 7 (33:36):
Said first guest. It didn't really register before you start. Yeah,
but now okay, I got it. You're the first guest
that one new studio.

Speaker 4 (33:46):
Studio.

Speaker 6 (33:46):
Somebody I know m is still Huxtable. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome, word,
thank you. Now you're from Jersey City that don't know
how did you get your start in show business? Because
we heard that you are a rapper at first you
are in a rap group almost deaf jam at the time.

(34:07):
How did you get your start with show business?

Speaker 23 (34:09):
I was doing basically community theater. My mother was always
looking for me to uh, looking for things for me
to do outside of going to school and coming home
and hanging out. So like, I played basketball and that
was my thing.

Speaker 7 (34:24):
I thought.

Speaker 23 (34:24):
I thought it was gonna be a basketball player. And
then one season, one year basketball season was over, my
mother's friend suggested this community theater and I asked him
if I wanted to go. So I went down, auditioned,
got in and found myself doing theater and just absolutely
loved it. So like at nine years old, I was like, oh,
this is this is what I want to do and

(34:45):
what it was. It was really it was the first
curtain call. Like the first player I did was called
Alice Is that You? And it was basically, uh, a
takeoff of the Whiz like Dorothy gets the Odds and
everybody thinks she's Alice from Alice in Wonderland, right, And
I played the ten man. And I just remember the
first opening night coming out for curtain Call, coming out

(35:06):
and people clapping and standing up, and I'm like nine.

Speaker 7 (35:09):
Years old, and I'm like, yo, I got that bug
I can get into this. People stand up and clap
for you. Yeah, I like this.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
How did you book Cosby? What was that that process?

Speaker 14 (35:17):
Like?

Speaker 7 (35:18):
That's funny.

Speaker 23 (35:18):
So when my agent first submitted me, uh, they were
looking for a six to fifteen year old Jesus Yeah,
well because because you know, in this was fifteen and
was six to two mister Cosby's son. So in the
original in the original script, like there was this running

(35:40):
joke like you know, THEO would you know, get in
trouble with something and Cliff would be like THEO stand up,
and THEO stands up and he's towering over Cliff, and
Cliff'd be like, THEO, sit down, so they were trying
to get that they couldn't find that kid, and she
submitted me. They didn't want to see me, and at
the last minute she re submitted me because they couldn't
find the and they were doing network callbacks.

Speaker 7 (36:02):
This is crazy because it was good Friday eighty four.

Speaker 23 (36:05):
I auditioned at six point thirty on Friday afternoon and
the network callbacks were that Monday, so they were already
flying in somebody from Chicago, flying in somebody from New York.
So I was literally the last person they saw. And
when I went in for the network callbacks, I went
in and I did the audition like you know, you see,

(36:28):
you know, I was watching different strokes and what I
so you see kids being smart alex and talking back
to the parents and rolling their eyes. So I was
doing the scene like that, and in the room is
you know network, you know, producers, studio, and I'm killing.
In the room, everybody's like, I'm hitting all all the
beats and everybody's laughing.

Speaker 7 (36:46):
And I'm killing.

Speaker 23 (36:47):
And I finished, and everybody's like cool except mister Cosby,
and he's looking at me and he's like, would you
really talk to your father like that? And I said no,
he said, I don't want to see that on the show.
So you go back out and you give me some
else and come back later. And because it was the
network callbacks, like everybody was there, so they had, you know,
audition everybody for other parts, and finally I came back

(37:07):
in and gave them one hundred and eighty degree turn.

Speaker 4 (37:11):
Well clearly he saw something, men, you though, Yeah.

Speaker 23 (37:13):
Yeah, yeah, and you know, they gave me a shot
to come back and redo it, and that's how I
booked it.

Speaker 5 (37:19):
You know, what's interesting about what you said earlier. You
said that you was in theater at nine years old.
So people see these gifted young actors on shows like
Cosby back in the day, and we don't realize the
background because nowadays it feels like it's no point of
entry to you know, get on these TVs everything.

Speaker 7 (37:38):
Or social media or social media become later.

Speaker 5 (37:40):
You actually went and were perfecting your craft before you
got to that point.

Speaker 23 (37:44):
Yeah, and I still do, like I've always every couple
of years, I do theater, even when I was on Cosby, Like,
I always go back to theater because that is the uh,
I mean, that's the that's the foundation, you know. So
I always say, like, theater is my favorite platform. Television
is my favorite check, but theater is really like like
that's I mean.

Speaker 7 (38:04):
That's that's that's that's the Have.

Speaker 5 (38:06):
You ever just sat back and reflected on what you
and The Cosby Show meant to black people in really
the world from eighty four to ninety two.

Speaker 23 (38:16):
Yeah, yeah, it's something that we still talk about, right,
So who say I mean, you know what I'm saying,
we like like worldwide the culture, you know it because
it's had a an indelible, irreversible effect, you know on
the culture. So I mean it's something I'm very proud, like,
no matter what, I'm very proud to you know, have

(38:38):
been a part of that and part of that, you know,
just to have that kind of I guess influence if
you will. And when I was younger, you know, it
was always I was always trying to escape this role
model you know title, because.

Speaker 7 (38:54):
I was like, oh, Michael, want use the role model.

Speaker 23 (38:56):
And my thing was always we always equate perfection with
role model. So I never wanted the pressure of being,
you know, being seen as flawless because I just I
didn't want that, Like that wasn't me. So I used
to kind of kind of shy away from that, you know,

(39:18):
that title. But and now that I'm older, not that
I want to be considered a role model, but I
do understand the.

Speaker 7 (39:28):
You know, having the platform. I understand, uh, having the
ear of young people like you know.

Speaker 23 (39:35):
Fortunately, I'm still at a place where I'm still relevant
enough where you know, what I say can still have influence.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
You always listen to you because of that time.

Speaker 23 (39:45):
Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah, and and and that's something I
take seriously. So I was I was really fortunate because
we shot Calls be here in New York and you
know during during the eighties, man, you know yall did.

Speaker 14 (40:00):
That was.

Speaker 23 (40:02):
Actually that was actually so we shot in Brooklyn, then
we shot in Queens, but that that stupe, that front
stop was actually in the village.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (40:14):
Rest in peace to Malcolm Jamaal Warner. We're getting back
on an interview when he was up here. Very sad
condolences to his family.

Speaker 2 (40:22):

Speaker 6 (40:23):
Did you look at Bill Cosby as a father figure
because you around him so much, You did so much
acting like right, and and I mean you were a
good actor, but it was believable. It seems like you
admired him as a father when I when I would
watch the show or even see you behind the scenes
of the show whatever.

Speaker 7 (40:37):
Well, I was doing theater. I was perfecting my.

Speaker 23 (40:42):
Job, right, No, because you know, I've my father has
always been, you know, an integral part of my life.

Speaker 7 (40:47):
So I have a father.

Speaker 23 (40:50):
He was you know, Miss Cosby was obvious, someone I
worked with, someone I respected. But Ennis was also you know,
a close friend of mine, so he was also like
Inness's dad, gotcha, So it wasn't. I mean, I would
definitely say he was a mentor because he he schooled
me on a lot of you know, on a lot
of things.

Speaker 7 (41:07):
But the.

Speaker 23 (41:09):
I love the father's son relationship between Cliff and THEO,
but that wasn't. That wasn't our relationship. But we you know,
we're Matt cool, But it wasn't the It wasn't the
father figure.

Speaker 6 (41:21):
Now as a mentor, did he school you on to
contracts and negotiations? Because no, that thing it's still on now.
And I'm like, do you still get paid? And was
everything taken care of the right way? Or is it
you're a new actor you got got yeah, yeah, we
got well and once we got God, that's not that's
not that's completely unfair to say we got God.

Speaker 7 (41:39):
But I will say this, so, yeah, so we get residuals.

Speaker 23 (41:42):
Right. But the thing that that that people don't necessarily
understand about residuals is every time an episode repeats, you
get a percentage of what your original paycheck was, and
that show has repeated forever.

Speaker 7 (41:57):
Correct. So let's say to.

Speaker 23 (41:59):
Put things in active about ten to twelve years ago,
I remember getting an episode check for sixty four dollars.

Speaker 7 (42:08):
I thought a redigual check.

Speaker 23 (42:11):
Sometimes yeah, like I guess at some point the sending
the checkout costs more than what the check is correct.

Speaker 7 (42:17):
So for a period of time though.

Speaker 23 (42:20):
That lump sum was a nice padding, But then after
a while, you know, once it just keeps airing, it's
not a whole lot. But when you have points when
you got back in, that's when you're forever making money
because when they syndicate the show, however many times they syndicated,
you have a piece of the show, so you're getting

(42:41):
that kind of money. We didn't get on the ship.
We had no no backend. We didn't know about back in,
and even if we did, we didn't have any leverage
to negotiate the time.

Speaker 6 (42:50):
All I want I want to ask, you know, out
of all your episodes, I'll ask Charla Mane. So my
most memorable Cosby show is, of course to go to
control season one episode.

Speaker 2 (43:02):
It's my shirt shirt.

Speaker 9 (43:16):
Think of the morn.

Speaker 4 (43:19):
Ask me the question again.

Speaker 15 (43:23):
I hate it, look at it.

Speaker 6 (43:30):
Of course the I did the same thing when I
got my errand so what was your favorite all of those?

Speaker 23 (43:38):
But I think that at the top of this would
be the pilot when theil was getting d's in school
and they did the whole monopoly money thing, and you know,
THEO gives that that was the area that the E
and you know THEO gives the speech. You know, like
you know that I just want to be regular people

(43:59):
like I don't want to be a doctor like you.

Speaker 7 (44:01):
I don't want to be a lawyer like like mom.
I just want to be regular people.

Speaker 27 (44:04):
And instead of acting disappointment because I'm not like you,
maybe you can just accept who I am and love
me anyway because I'm your son.

Speaker 14 (44:24):
That's the dumbest thing I've never heard in you.

Speaker 7 (44:29):
No wonder you get d's and everything.

Speaker 23 (44:34):
And so for me that was significant because it's set
the tone for the show, like any other show at
that point, the music would have started, correct, the father
and son would have hugged, but he, you know, he
went left with that, and I just love that because
that set the tone that this was going to be
a different kind of show.

Speaker 5 (44:52):
Gotcha, we're gonna talk to about other stuff other the copy.
As a fan, I gotta get some.

Speaker 7 (44:57):
First time, no doubt.

Speaker 4 (44:59):
Did you have a keep the Gordon Show?

Speaker 2 (45:01):
I did not.

Speaker 23 (45:01):
I think it's in the Smithsonian if I'm not sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (45:06):
That was.

Speaker 23 (45:06):
That was one of our That was that was definitely
one of our most fun and for me, most memorable episodes.

Speaker 5 (45:12):
You never get approached about doing a Gordon guardtrail clothing line,
Malcolm Jamal warns.

Speaker 23 (45:16):
Gordon, I'm surprised I have not, but I see there's
a Gordon guartrail like t shirt line out there.

Speaker 7 (45:22):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (45:24):
How much of the show was free, free done and
how much was actually written? Like were you allowed to
go off script? Because some of that stuff just seemed
like y'all were.

Speaker 23 (45:31):
Going we we had to often go off script because
it's so it takes it typically takes five days to
do a sitcom. We were doing that we got down
to like three and a half days, and you know,
most of those uh storylines came from mister Cosby's monologues, right, So.

Speaker 7 (45:51):
We were a very under rehearsed show.

Speaker 23 (45:54):
So when it was time to tape the show, oftentimes,
you know, if mister had like a model or something,
he wouldn't know.

Speaker 7 (46:01):
The monologue, so he'd like, he'd go left.

Speaker 23 (46:04):
And the fun part for us was when we when
he went left, we had to go left with him. So,
you know, for me it was great because it's like, oh,
this is theater now we just you know, we're you know, you.

Speaker 7 (46:13):
Follow, if you follow the leader, you follow the followers
what we call.

Speaker 23 (46:16):
It, so uh, you know, And and I love seeing
those moments uh with him and him and Olivia were cool.
But like those moments with him and Keisha, you know
because at the time, you know, Keisha was four, so
she didn't know how to read, so she had to
know she had to remember what to say, how to
say it, and when to say it. Wow, and the
wind was always based on the line before. So she's

(46:38):
doing things with mister Cosby and she's waiting for her
line and he's just talking and they would just make
It was just really cool to watch her and if
you go back, you could just see her little brain processing.

Speaker 7 (46:48):
How to maneuver through you know, what's happening.

Speaker 23 (46:52):
So so though stuff was written, you know, there was
stuff that had to be kind of off book because
we were we were following him and Felicia was the
best at that and you look at those episodes.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
Rest in peace to Malcolm Jamal Warner.

Speaker 6 (47:03):
But getting back on an interview when he was up
here very sad condolences to his family.

Speaker 7 (47:08):
Is the breakfast club?

Speaker 6 (47:09):
I was gonna ask you, you never got caught up
in the drug world or alcohol because Studio fifty four
Last quartersback then was no.

Speaker 23 (47:16):
I could be around it, but it just wasn't That
wasn't me. I mean, you know, look my father named
me after Malcolm X and Ama Jamal, Like my father
was not playing wow. So that's why I say, like,
like before the fame, my foundation was so solid that
I could be I could be around all that stuff
and not have to participate in that.

Speaker 7 (47:38):
So to be able to.

Speaker 23 (47:40):
Enjoy everything that being famous had to offer without being
a knucklehead. And again, being in New York is different
from growing up on television in LA, because in LA,
your best friend is on the same lot on stage
next door, whereas here in New York there weren't other
shows here, so I wasn't hanging out with actors.

Speaker 5 (47:58):
Now, I got to give all proper to your parents,
because you know, even when you talk to somebody like
Kim Field is the same thing.

Speaker 4 (48:03):
She gives all her credit to her her mom. Because
y'all had every y'all had every right to wild out.
Y'all are the biggest things moving.

Speaker 23 (48:12):
Yeah, but we also we also came on the heels
of Gary Todd Bridges and Danna Plato, so like, oh,
we overlapped.

Speaker 7 (48:22):
Their you know, their journey. So for I just felt like, well,
we got no excuse.

Speaker 23 (48:29):
You learned from that, Yeah, like we're seeing it's like
you hear about stuff and throughout history, but this was
happening right now, Like I'm looking at Todd Bridges, So
there was really no excuse for us to wild out
like that. But again I also say, because we lived
in New York and not LA, we weren't hanging around
other Hollywood kids when we were shooting in Brooklyn. Uh,

(48:51):
the NBC studios on Avenue M and E's fourteenth Street.
They didn't have a commissary, so at lunch we had
to go out into the neighborhood and get that we're
gonna eat.

Speaker 7 (49:01):
We moved to a coffin the story. Their commissary was whack, so.

Speaker 23 (49:05):
We went out into the neighborhood and went and got
would get our lunch. So it was just a very
different experience, uh, that we had, being able to grow
up in New York rather than grow uping television.

Speaker 6 (49:18):
In holl You said something earlier and I wanted to
ask you about and you were saying that when you
were promoting your jazz album, a lot of these outlets
were saying that the only way that you can come
up here is if you asked a question, if your
answer question about Bill Cosby.

Speaker 2 (49:30):
How were you able to navigate all those questions?

Speaker 6 (49:33):
Because although you have your own stuff going on, you're
doing plays, you're acting, you're doing movies, sitcoms. You know,
you have your music, but you almost gonna want to
be like, I get it, but this is what I'm
here for. So how did you navigate through all that
without you know, going down those those those lanes.

Speaker 23 (49:48):
By turning the you know, by by whatever the question is.
Answering it, you know, the best way I could, Like.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
They want to know, did you see him do this?
What about this?

Speaker 14 (49:59):
You know?

Speaker 23 (49:59):
And the the reality is, I'm not in a position
like whatever it is you're trying to ask. I don't know.
I was, I was when I was a kid. And again,
I you know that was that was Innus's dad, you know.
So I am not in a position to defend him
at all. And there's no need for me to try
to throw him under the bus because the rest of

(50:21):
the world is doing that. And you know, like like
you know, the real is, I know what everybody else knows,
and everybody else.

Speaker 7 (50:30):
Knows what the press has told them.

Speaker 23 (50:33):
So I don't really have I don't really have a
real ground to stand on to speak on it as
much as anybody else does, you know.

Speaker 5 (50:42):
So, and you might be biased because you didn't you
saw a whole different side of him that none of
us are privy too.

Speaker 23 (50:48):
Yeah, yes, and and and I saw ah, I saw
a very human side of it, like what everybody else is. Like,
you know, he's America's famous, you know, favorite dad, and
you know, they they as people do with celebrities, you know,
they put us on a pedestal. And again that's why,
as a kid, I don't want to be considered a

(51:09):
role model and be perfect, cause I'm like, that's not me.
But that's what we do to people. So while everyone
is you know, I'm like, he's a man, he's got
he's got his own, got his own faults and whatever
faults I saw, though, it wasn't that. I you know,
like mm hmm, I saw a man. So it's a
different it's a different experience for me, uh than it

(51:31):
is for everybody else.

Speaker 5 (51:32):
I've always loved how black your name is man and
finding out that you named after Malcolm Mexican.

Speaker 4 (51:38):
You said, Okay, I'm not familiar with ma.

Speaker 23 (51:42):
He's he's a renowned jazz pianist, but he's a if
you could be a jazz pianist and be militant as
that's agin.

Speaker 14 (51:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (51:53):
I wasn't gonna ask before you get about of here,
would you mind doing a poem?

Speaker 7 (51:57):
Okay, this piece is.

Speaker 23 (52:01):
A Santa Sana about a guy in comrade, but you're
still in that freedom word. Well, you know, me and
this poetry, we still be on that weed, that birthing
inspirational couplets and breedoms that I spit cats should heed them.
That words can't break my bones, but if you cut

(52:23):
me homes, I bleed them. Atonement for the masses of
hard asses and heads that tread on civil liberties in
the most uncivilized fashion is said to be dead. Can
we afford to be dumb for free?

Speaker 7 (52:38):
See?

Speaker 23 (52:38):
That's the question I'm asking as I beg for an
ounce of truth amongst the aloof surrounding me. My vices
are proof that these demons keep pounding me. Reality keeps
pounding me, almost astounding me into the strange hypocrisy. You see,
I preach the same hope that I'm losing daily. Like

(52:59):
my relation people are deep, I bear my soul. I
stand on the precipice of this crossroads. It's like I
want to give my life to the cause, but which
one ignorance is running so ridiculously rampant. I can't tell
if I'm hating or merely debating just for fun. But
I do know my heart heaves heavy upon hearing the

(53:20):
fluttering hum of the feeble footsteps of fear, stamping out
the ferocious flames of our dogged desire and determination to
outpace the perilous prophecy. Our captors have programmed to be
our faith and thus our fate. I know my soul
soul rise with anxiety aches. Lies no longer need disguise

(53:41):
when they start looking like the truth, like how do
we ignore cries of ill guided youth spitting dope bars
of self hate overbeats that bang harder than strange fruit hangs. Meanwhile,
her breast hang and her booty bangs harder than the
gun collapse of rival gangs fighting over territory they don't
even own, and in.

Speaker 7 (54:03):
Magic cities everywhere.

Speaker 23 (54:05):
She feeds her babies based on her ability to shake
what her mama gave her because her pops was too
busy breaking in his disappearing act to save her from
these mean streets that eat the milk in one swallow.
Lies no longer need disguise when the truth is viewed
as hollow through the eyes that need it most. We
descendants of stolen legacies, children of ancestors who cannot be

(54:31):
broken birthers, and bearers of a culture that has been
repeatedly robbed and ransacked to feed the spiritually famine like
a black woman's bosom, We who become a pre existing condition,
simply because we pre exist, we who realize we are worthy.

(54:54):
We are the guardians. We are the gardeners. We are
the soil, We are the toil. We are the protectors
of our sieves who need to be protected, who need
to see true love and black excellence redirected not through
fame and fortune, but redirected through character. Indeed, and indeed,

(55:17):
it is those who stand on the front line fighting
for the minds of our young, black and gifted. It
is you who are in inspiration to me because you
are the revolution we do not see on TV. Sante Sna.

Speaker 7 (55:32):
Nice ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 5 (55:35):
Malcolm, you know what I just thought about what fathers
doing father things and uh, you know, passing away tragically
hits so different.

Speaker 4 (55:50):
The first one we heard was Kobe, Yes.

Speaker 5 (55:52):
You and I And I remember being in Atlantic City
on that Sunday with my daughter at her chair competition
and just thinking to myself, just the man and getting
up in the morning to go do something his daughter's
extracurricular activity and end up passing away with his daughter.
And it's the same thing with Malcolm Jamal Water on
vacation with your family, being a father and something tragic happens.

Speaker 6 (56:13):
Tragic happens, my god. Yeah, but you can't, you know,
you can't live life scared. You still gotta go on.
But it is tragic, you know.

Speaker 4 (56:20):
It just shows you that you can't control it.

Speaker 5 (56:22):
You know, like, no matter what you put out into
the world, accidents just do happen.

Speaker 7 (56:27):
Yeah, it's just a part of life.

Speaker 6 (56:29):
Yeah, my wife told me yesterday, get your dumb ass
off that city bike. I rode the city by yesterday. Upstairs,
I have no helmet on, and we riding, and the
electric bikes they fast. My wife is like, what's what's
wrong with you?

Speaker 5 (56:38):
First of all, never let your dumb ass lead the
house without a helmet. Okay, we shouldn't even let you
be in here without help. Shut up, we shouldn't shut up.
Let's get to the lat.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
She gets somebody that knows somebody detail.

Speaker 15 (56:56):
I'm not God that knows a little bit about everything.

Speaker 19 (56:59):
She'd be having the latest on such Sabagas the Lawns,
the latest with Lauren La Rosea.

Speaker 5 (57:04):
Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you
have a little bit everything.

Speaker 3 (57:07):
It's the lead on the breakfast club, something to me,
don't to me?

Speaker 22 (57:11):
Well and keeping the conversation going on fatherhood and continuing
to honor Malcolm Jamal Warner. One of the most dynamic
fathers and duos that we saw on TV was Bill
Cosby and Malcolm Jamal Warner. Now Bill Cosby has actually
broke his silence and spoke out about the passing of
malcolm 's Take a listen when.

Speaker 16 (57:29):
The news came to me, and the news came to
me in a way that we're not really sure. We
don't know this, and yeah, we don't know what because
it's the same way I got the news about Ennis.
I don't know about swimming. I don't know what came

(57:51):
and got him. But I do know that he is
an honest person and that media, I hope will show
the respect for him.

Speaker 7 (58:05):
Yes, period.

Speaker 22 (58:07):
He was speaking to Bill Cosby was speaking to Frankie
Darcel from w d S in that interview and also
show Bill Cosby. According to Frankie Darcel from w DS.

Speaker 4 (58:17):
But he there was might have been Godfrey. Are we sure?

Speaker 6 (58:24):
But Bill said that you know, he looked at him
as like he felt like he lost another son, when
when you know, when he passed away, when Malcolm passed away,
because his son passed away when he was younger.

Speaker 15 (58:33):
Yes, yep.

Speaker 22 (58:34):
And there was also a story that Bill Cosby's rep
did with TMZ where he kind of echoed some of
the sentiments that he shared with Frankie Darcel. But he
also talked about, you know the fact that he had
spoken to Malcolm about three months ago. Malcolm was really
excited about something new that he had written, and you know,
he was just on this whole conquest to.

Speaker 15 (58:51):
Save the world through his art.

Speaker 22 (58:53):
But I did want to, you know, warm up the
moment a bit, because I think a lot of people
right now are just remembering how good the Cosby Chowfa
moments made you feel. And I think that's why most,
like our caller said this morning, you feel like you
know Malcolm personally because of that show. So we have
a clip from one of the episodes in the show
from the Cosby Show.

Speaker 15 (59:10):
Let's take a listen.

Speaker 27 (59:11):
You're a doctor and mom's a lawyer and both successful
and everything, and that's great. Maybe I was born to
be a regular person and have a regular life. If
you want a doctor, I wouldn't love you less because
you're my dad. And so instead of acting disappointment because
I'm not like you, maybe you can just accept who

(59:34):
I am and love me anyway because I'm your son.

Speaker 23 (59:43):
Feel that's the dumbest thing.

Speaker 2 (59:49):
No wonder you get d's or everything.

Speaker 28 (59:56):
Oh my god, that's that's that was one of my
favorite episodes. That one of my favorite THEO moments, you know,
amongst others, But.

Speaker 15 (01:00:02):
Like, that is who I grew up on. That's what
I like. You know, I love to hear that.

Speaker 6 (01:00:09):
This show was so influential. When I did the podcast
a couple of weeks ago, we were joking about it.
He was like, you know, he doesn't really he realized
the influence of that show because so many people come
up to him and not just.

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
That show, of course the different world as well.

Speaker 6 (01:00:22):
He was like, because people just lived that moment at
the time, that's all we really seen on television.

Speaker 2 (01:00:27):
Wasn't that much on television.

Speaker 6 (01:00:28):
So absolutely we got to lift through those Gordon Contreill
moments and when he got his ear ring moments and
you know.

Speaker 5 (01:00:34):
All that stuff, like you've lived to it, you know,
Gordon got Trail was actually a staff a staff person
on a staff member of the show who became a
writer and producer.

Speaker 28 (01:00:43):
Really good fact know that I met Malcolm Jamal warning
like when I used to live in LA like five
years ago, he was so cool, cool, cool cool and
I and of course, of course I was like THEO.
Just called him THEO and he just looked like and
I was like I grew up on you know, you know,
and then you know, went on to watch his other
projects and everything.

Speaker 15 (01:01:01):
But he was just so cool.

Speaker 28 (01:01:02):
Stop took a picture with me, was talking to me,
and it was it was amazing.

Speaker 15 (01:01:06):
It was he was just like a regular.

Speaker 4 (01:01:08):
Person, great brother.

Speaker 5 (01:01:09):
I saw a clip last night that Malcolm Jamal Wanta
said he didn't want to be known that Malcolm Jamal
wanted the actor. He wanted to be known as Malcolm Jamal,
Malcolm Jamal wanna the man. And I agree because I
do not like seeing people say rip. Feel like Michcolm
Jamal Wanner was a real person, a real man, a
real human with a real family deals, a character.

Speaker 2 (01:01:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:01:28):
Absolutely, some people just just know him as you know
as CEO.

Speaker 2 (01:01:33):
Will never forget you.

Speaker 15 (01:01:35):
Know that that uh, that role that he played. I
think life in our houses basically.

Speaker 22 (01:01:41):
You signed out to inspire through you know, he was
doing a lot of work through his podcast. As he
talking about being a dad, talking about being a man.
You know, through his work on camera sto people became doctors, HBCU, students, fathers.
You know, women wanted to be wives and be Claire
huck like all these things. You just talk about impact
like you know, that's where you need.

Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
Definitely be missed man, and rest in peace.

Speaker 6 (01:02:00):
And he also spoke about why he didn't want his
kids and why he didn't want his daughter and his
wife and in the limelight.

Speaker 2 (01:02:05):
White never put their name out.

Speaker 6 (01:02:06):
He didn't want them to be He didn't want the
industry to take over. He wanted to add something to himself.
So definitely rest in peace, Malcolm Jamal Warner and and
condolences to his family.

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
Horrible man.

Speaker 5 (01:02:16):
I mean, just like I said, just out doing regular
daddy stuff. You just out with your family on vacation
and something tragic like this happens.

Speaker 6 (01:02:25):
Man, And we're gonna open up the phone lines eight
undred five five one oh five to one.

Speaker 7 (01:02:30):
Let's just talk. Let's just talk.

woman in Florida named tropped her mary X.

Speaker 7 (01:03:30):
The same.

Speaker 5 (01:03:33):
Donkey to Day for Tuesday, July twenty second goes to
an eighteen year old young lady named Tripura mary X.
I think I'm pronouncing that right now. Triperia Tripura is
from Florida. And what does Youngshalla always say about the
great state of Florida. The craziest people in America come
from the Bronx and all of Florida, and today is
no exception, okay. Tripura is charged with felony child neglect

(01:03:56):
for allegedly leaving her two year old daughter unattended and
a two thousand and two Cadillac Escalade. Now I'm reading
this story and it says this young lady left her
two year old daughter locked up in a hot car
with a heat index of one hundred and seven degrees. Now,
I could stop donkey of to day right here. Okay,
I could let the heat hal fly right now, and
you all would completely understand, because there is absolutely never

(01:04:17):
a reason to leave your two year old daughter two
year old child period unattended in a car. Ever, the
temperature don't even matter. Okay, I don't care if the
weather was perfect outside. You don't leave your two year
old unattended anywhere. But there is a reason, Okay, there
is a reason that Tripura left her daughter unattended in
this car. Please remember that just because there is a reason,

(01:04:39):
it doesn't mean it was a good one.

Speaker 4 (01:04:40):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (01:04:40):
I can't think of what would be a good reason
to do what she did, but I know for sure
this ain't it.

Speaker 7 (01:04:45):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:04:45):
Would you like to know what happened? Let me read
this from.

Speaker 7 (01:04:48):
Law and Crime. Okay, Law and Crime.

Speaker 5 (01:04:50):
A Florida teenager is accused of leaving her two year
old daughter locked up in a hot car with a
heat index of one hundred and seven degrees while the
young woman watched the New Smurfs movie.

Speaker 4 (01:05:04):
At a movie theater with her own siblings.

Speaker 5 (01:05:06):
Okay, she locked the kid in the car because she
went to see the Smurfs movie with her brother and sister,
and while they were watching the movie, the child kept
crying loudly and caused the disturbance, so she decided to
take the kid out to the lobbies. The eventually locked
the kid and the escalade. She even admitted to the
cops that she had done this a few times before.
Cops said she had a real nonchalant attitude about it.

Speaker 7 (01:05:29):
It wasn't a big deal.

Speaker 4 (01:05:30):
Okay, they had to break the window.

Speaker 5 (01:05:32):
Like you know, people were passing by saw the little
girl in discress, so they had to break the window
to get the young girl out. What do they call it?
They had to break the driverside window. Yes, she said
she was visibly discressed. The child had a flushed red appearance,
was sweating profusely, and was crying in distress.

Speaker 7 (01:05:49):
That's what the cops alleged.

Speaker 5 (01:05:53):
She left her two year old daughter unattended in a
hot car so she could go watch the Smurfs movie
with her own siblings.

Speaker 7 (01:05:59):
This is why kids shouldn't have kids.

Speaker 5 (01:06:01):
Okay, she's eighteen, Her daughter is too, so she got
pregnant at like fifteen. All right, we as a society
should really be against that. In these are the reasons
why fifteen and sixteen you should be focused on getting
your permit and your license, not focused on getting prenatal care. Okay,
a sixteen year old should be worried about semesters, not trimestics.
And this is the reason why she's not even and
this is the reason why, because she's not even cognitively

(01:06:23):
prepared to raise a child. She's eighteen. Okay, she's still
a goddamn child herself. And you know what, kids hate responsibility.
And you know what's the biggest responsibility in the world.

Speaker 2 (01:06:33):
Kids?

Speaker 5 (01:06:34):
Okay, kids are the most significant responsibility a person can have.
If you actually care enough to raise your kids, if
you actually care enough to be in your kid's life,
then there is no greater obligation.

Speaker 7 (01:06:46):
All their basic needs.

Speaker 5 (01:06:47):
Food, clothing, shelter, healthcare, education, and ensuring their welfare and safety. Tripua,
did you hear the last part ensuring their welfare in safety?
You treated your two year old the way you wouldn't
even treat your phone.

Speaker 4 (01:07:05):
Okay, you are eighteen.

Speaker 5 (01:07:07):
You would lose your mind if you left your phone
unattended anywhere.

Speaker 4 (01:07:12):
Okay, you would.

Speaker 5 (01:07:13):
Never leave your phone unattended, but you got no problem
leaving your child unattended to go see the Smurfs movie
with your siblings. I bet all your siblings was your
age and younger too, Okay, A bunch of kids and
you trying to raise one because there's no way people
with you don't be like, well, where's the baby? Oh,
I just left him in the car, and y'all just
continue watching the movie all together, one big, happy family.

(01:07:34):
By the way, I took my daughters to see the
Smurfs last weekend. I don't remember it being that fire. Okay,
not fire enough to put your child in a car
unattended because you might.

Speaker 4 (01:07:43):
Miss them, all right, tell I fell asleep because.

Speaker 5 (01:07:46):
There was questions about the Smurfs that I never asked
myself as a child, But as an adult, I'm like, damn, okay,
number one. And this is coming from the most unhealed
parts of my psyche where the holes at Okay? I mean,
there is no ladies in Smurfs village. Okay, Smurfect the
only one, and she was made of clay, So who
would have Smurf's reproducing.

Speaker 4 (01:08:07):
With there's a Papa Smurf, but no Mama Smurf.

Speaker 5 (01:08:10):
Now we understand why one smurfs so grouchy because he
ain't getting no cheeks. And I did some research, and
by research, I googled why are there no female Smurfs,
and it said natural born Smurfs are predominantly male, and
female Smurfs are created through magic.

Speaker 4 (01:08:24):
Huh magic.

Speaker 5 (01:08:27):
So this leads me to one conclusion, and that conclusion
is that the Smurfs are all butt babies. Okay, Papa
Smurf be airing out clumsy, brainy vanity and handy shooting.
They clubs are getting them pregnant, and they be having
butt babies. Now keep in mind I'm slightly retarded. Listen, okay, okay,
you're listening to a retarded person here, all right. So
it was brought to my attention that the Stalk delivers Smurfs.

Speaker 7 (01:08:47):
All right.

Speaker 5 (01:08:47):
I don't know if y'all seen that on the cartoon,
to Stalk brings the babies, right, So if that's the case,
that explains how the babies get here. But it still
means that Smurf village in the village here in New
York are the gayest villages in the world. Okay, I'm
saying all that to say I would sleep within the
first twenty minutes of the Smurf movie. Okay, once I
ate my popcorn and my peanut M and m's, I
was out and I woke up in time to see
the Smurf's defeat Gargabel.

Speaker 7 (01:09:08):
But I wasn't impressed.

Speaker 5 (01:09:09):
Okay, I'm shocked that you love the Smurfs that much
to Poora. All right, kids, listen to me. Let Tropera
be a. Listen to you, all all right, you want
to be out here popping that poom poom at a
young age, you get pregnant, keep the baby.

Speaker 7 (01:09:21):
You don't have a life anymore. Okay.

Speaker 5 (01:09:24):
Your primary responsibility is that child, all right. If you
don't want that responsibility, then keep your mother freaking legs closed.

Speaker 4 (01:09:32):
Please letr me Ma give trip Pure Americs the biggest
he huh.

Speaker 15 (01:09:35):
Hee ha he ha.

Speaker 2 (01:09:37):
You stupid motherfuck?

Speaker 4 (01:09:39):
Are you dumb?

Speaker 15 (01:09:41):
That's crazy. I don't understand why the baby couldn't go
into movies with her. If it was a kid's movie.

Speaker 5 (01:09:46):
She was there, but then she started crying and called
them a disturbance, so she took the baby out.

Speaker 2 (01:09:50):
It's not funny with people.

Speaker 4 (01:09:52):
Damn. People are so stupid, not stupid, very retarded.

Speaker 5 (01:09:56):
And this is why we got to keep using that
word and don't ever retire that word, because there's no
other way to explain people like this.

Speaker 2 (01:10:02):
What race was she?

Speaker 4 (01:10:03):
No, she was blue.

Speaker 7 (01:10:04):
She was a smurf. Yeah, all right, she was smurf.

Speaker 2 (01:10:08):
You don't playgain no.

Speaker 15 (01:10:10):
And then and then the girls smurfs.

Speaker 20 (01:10:14):
But one it's not one smurfett. That's another woman Smurf.
It's another girl Smurf. There's another smot girl Smurf.

Speaker 4 (01:10:20):
Yes, is I just know smurf?

Speaker 14 (01:10:22):
No?

Speaker 15 (01:10:22):
No, no, no, no, no, I ain't no girl.

Speaker 2 (01:10:25):
I'm not messing with you.

Speaker 5 (01:10:25):

Speaker 18 (01:12:58):
Hey? Lady Warren m V Charlottage.

Speaker 5 (01:13:03):
You know so crazy, real quick when you say ladies,
I don't know who you're talking about in this room.

Speaker 4 (01:13:06):
I just want you to know that that could be me,
that could be Envy, she.

Speaker 15 (01:13:09):
Said, everybody all of the.

Speaker 4 (01:13:12):
I'm just saying, it's just, you know, are you always
playing around?

Speaker 18 (01:13:16):
Charlow? Cut it out, Leave Envy alone, Leave leave my
cousin m Vy alone. I want to call in and
just give sentiments about you know, Malcolm Jamal Warner and
you know, everyone's sentiment kind of thing that he felt
like family and he definitely did feel like a family member,
just you know, growing up watching the Copy Show and everything,

(01:13:36):
and really is hitting close to home for me because
I just came off of family vacation from Dominica, where
I'm from. So shout out to you, Envy, who might
be my cousin.

Speaker 2 (01:13:49):
That's that's that's not It's not a Spanish album.

Speaker 14 (01:13:56):
Again.

Speaker 18 (01:13:57):
I Got I Got Dominica is one of the French
islands in the of the Caribbean. It is a black country, Charlemagne.

Speaker 2 (01:14:08):
I think my dad owned some land. My dad owns
some land out there. I gotta go check my dad.

Speaker 7 (01:14:13):
Money is.

Speaker 18 (01:14:16):
Definitely no and he definitely needs to come out there
with me. Because one thing about Dominica, it is a
very small island and everybody is definitely related so.

Speaker 4 (01:14:28):
Each other.

Speaker 2 (01:14:29):
They didn't laugh, but they don't know. They don't know
why we laughing.

Speaker 7 (01:14:33):
We laughing to.

Speaker 2 (01:14:39):
Casey is the last name.

Speaker 17 (01:14:42):
I'm a little Blanc.

Speaker 18 (01:14:43):
So if your dad knows any le Blanc and LeBlanc
is definitely a prominent name. Because the main highway in
Dominica is the Edward Oliver LeBlanc Highway. So my family is,
you know, a little bit of a restcracy. So I'm
definitely gonna ask about Casey for sure, real, Charlemagne, Dominica
is the nature island of the Caribbean. It is one

(01:15:04):
of the most beautiful places in the world. Any I
mean for health and wellness, you just want to be
rejuvenated and just be one with nature. That's definitely where
you need to go. So don't be making fun of
my cousin up there, okay, but real talk, I mean,
you know recentees to Malcolm Jamal Warner. It's just really

(01:15:25):
sad hearing how he passed just doing something so normal
on vacation with his family. So that's why I said,
it kind of hit close to home for me because
we literally just the reason for our family reunion was
because we experienced so much loss in the past five
years from dealing with my parents during COVID, you know,

(01:15:47):
my cousin. So we finally just was, you know what,
this is the right time to give each other our
flowers while we're still here. So it's just really unfortunate
to hear that he passed just you know, on the
Kashaw's family doing something normal and fun.

Speaker 17 (01:16:03):
You know, it's very tragic.

Speaker 7 (01:16:04):
So there's something normal, and.

Speaker 8 (01:16:09):
Yeah, thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:16:10):
Because for real appreciate me.

Speaker 18 (01:16:12):
We go on vacation and literally when I was in Dominica,
I was in the river, you know, just like on
on on the rocks and of hanging off a cliffs
and same palmon trees, and you just never realize how
something so you know, just normal, something that you do
every day, like your habitat can literally just take a
turn for the words like mother nature, you know nature.

Speaker 17 (01:16:34):
It's just unfortunate.

Speaker 4 (01:16:36):
So you.

Speaker 5 (01:16:39):
And you better not start calling yourself French. Okay, you
can't be Dominican and then start claiming French. Don't you dare?

Speaker 7 (01:16:46):
Next thing?

Speaker 5 (01:16:47):
You know, if you'll be on a fly for a
French party, it'll be I can see. I know you, bro,
don't do it?

Speaker 2 (01:16:51):
Are y'all talking about you?

Speaker 4 (01:16:53):
Funny?

Speaker 2 (01:16:54):
How funny?

Speaker 14 (01:16:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:16:55):
Yes you are.

Speaker 28 (01:16:56):
You're so happy with just so everyone. That girl called
you our cousin. You foun out she's from Dominique, Like,
all right.

Speaker 2 (01:17:03):
I've been to that. I'll be telling y' y'all be listening.
Did you talking about my father?

Speaker 15 (01:17:07):
Got laying over there?

Speaker 4 (01:17:08):
God get out?

Speaker 6 (01:17:11):
Father passed away in the city where we was, had
land where he just never went to see it.

Speaker 7 (01:17:15):
So I was.

Speaker 6 (01:17:16):
Curious eight hundred and five eight five, one oh five
when we're talking.

Speaker 2 (01:17:21):
Malcolm Jamaal Warner, what's.

Speaker 14 (01:17:22):
That breakfast club?

Speaker 2 (01:17:23):
Ja?

Speaker 9 (01:17:24):
Hello?

Speaker 2 (01:17:25):
Good morning?

Speaker 17 (01:17:26):
So what's up crew?

Speaker 14 (01:17:28):
Good morning?

Speaker 29 (01:17:29):
So I just wanted to be brief and intentional. I
remember where I was when Kobe passed away. It made
me hit reset on some of the things I was
doing in my life. And then with the passion of
Malcolm Jamal Warner. You know, his family was the first
family I saw in my neighborhood on TV you name it,
coming from a single family home. So I hope men
take this and put this in perspective because I see
so much a THEO and my son, some of the

(01:17:50):
mistakes he's making, some of the things he's trying to
figure out the intentional. The reason I said I did
something last week. I went on a trip with my brothers.
Hadn't spent any time with them in probably first thing years.
We went on a week long trip and if I
come back, I'm like, men have to be more intentional
with their time because we as a memorlized dolcolme, what's
your story going to be? So it just puts it
in perspective where as a man, we should be getting

(01:18:12):
our priority together. We should be taking care of our
family and most importantly, living our lives. Because I don't
want anybody to be afraid to take chances. But you
just got to go out and you never know what
time is yours, but be intentional with your time as
a man.

Speaker 14 (01:18:24):
So that's what I got.

Speaker 5 (01:18:25):
Man, You're absolutely right, Jaya because you know, Kobe and
Malcolm hit different because these are two brothers who didn't
get shot.

Speaker 4 (01:18:32):
They didn't over those they ain't even died natural causes.
They were just living and living with their families.

Speaker 5 (01:18:38):
You know, Kobe was out with his daughter doing her
extracurricular activity basketball. Malcolm was on vacation with his family,
just swimming, and you know they both met these tragic demises.
So yeah, those two just just hit different because that
can happen.

Speaker 4 (01:18:51):
To any of us.

Speaker 3 (01:18:53):
That's right, Hello, who's this scored?

Speaker 17 (01:18:59):
What's up?

Speaker 2 (01:18:59):
Brother talking?

Speaker 14 (01:19:00):
Man?

Speaker 8 (01:19:01):
Look, it wasn't blessed us to you all man much
much blessing to the whole breakfast club. And I pray
for you guys, miss middle State man any time. Here's
my thing and right now today with this, Malcolm Jamorrow
warning lost in man, feel like I feel like I
lost a cousin. Man, Like I really feel like I
lost a cousin, somebody I personally know, even though I

(01:19:22):
don't get the person. You feel Where'm coming from. So
here's my take right here. Everybody should do the best
they can to put out the most positive vice they
can make sure that they leave behind the best legacy
that they can to make their family wild and look
back on to where like, Okay, hey, I'm not embarrassed.
I'm not just saying another with all our humans, which

(01:19:44):
is true, but the only thing that we're guaranteed in
this world is death. So make sure you do the
bench who can leave behind the bench and give all
all positive vibes every chance you can, and much blessing
to y'all. Want to beginish the boar buriding him out
the batter of Louis Amnem and much the stack of y'all.

Speaker 2 (01:20:01):
What's the moro of the story? Ain't no more? We
just over the phone.

Speaker 5 (01:20:04):
No, it was interesting what he said because you know,
never I hear situations like this, I start thinking about karma, right,
and they say, karma in essence is the concept that
actions have consequences, which I believe and what you put
out into the world will eventually return to you, whether
good are bad. That part I'm never too sure about.
But you know, I do feel like situations like this
is just a reminder to be mindful of our actions

(01:20:27):
and their impact, because that's all you can think about
when a person goes right. All you hear right now
is how good of a person Malcolm Jamal Warner was.
All you hear about is the impact that he had
on people, you know, through his art and not just
his art.

Speaker 14 (01:20:39):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:20:39):
The thing that I love is when I hear people
that say they worked with him and they met him
and how good of a person he was, because that's
the energy I felt when I was around him a
couple of times.

Speaker 4 (01:20:47):
So that's really truly all we can be responsible for.

Speaker 5 (01:20:50):
You can't say to yourself, I'm gonna do good things
and I expect, you know, good things to always happen
to me and bad things will never happen to me
because I do good things. No no, no, no, no no,
that's not the way. That's not the way this world.
This world works, man, like you just said, because accidents
do happen, sadly.

Speaker 6 (01:21:05):
He was a good brother, and he was proud to
be a father, and he was proud to be a husband,
and he was proud to be something positive in the culture.
And you know, I think God for my time with
the brother, just sitting down and talking to him. So
definitely rest in peace. When we come back, we got
the latest with Lawrence, So don't go anywhere. It's the
breakfast local Morning.

Speaker 2 (01:21:22):
The Breakfast Club.

Speaker 3 (01:21:26):
Owning everybody.

Speaker 6 (01:21:27):
It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarius, Charlamagne, the guy.

Speaker 2 (01:21:30):
We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the Latest
with Lauren.

Speaker 7 (01:21:33):
Lauren be coming straight fast.

Speaker 2 (01:21:36):
She gets them from somebody that knows somebody detail.

Speaker 15 (01:21:39):
I'm a homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.

Speaker 19 (01:21:42):
She'd be having the latest on its Sound, The Biggest Lawn,
The Latest with Laurence la Rosa.

Speaker 5 (01:21:47):
Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, Sometimes you
have a little bit of everything.

Speaker 3 (01:21:51):
It's the latest on the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 22 (01:21:55):
So we talked about Stephen Colbert in the Late Show cancelation,
and in his first show back on air since that
cancelation announcement, he addressed some things with Donald Trump because
Donald Trump, after the cancelation announcement happened, came out on
truth Social and said, I absolutely love that Colbert got fired.

Speaker 15 (01:22:12):
His talent was even less than his ratings.

Speaker 22 (01:22:14):
I hear Jimmy Kimmel's next has even less talent than Colbert.
Greg Gutfield is better than all of them combined, including
the moron on NBC who ruined the once Great Tonight Show.
So Stephen Colbert, like any you know great talk show
host said I'm addressed this right here on my platform.
Let's take a listen to Stephen Colbert on Trump.

Speaker 1 (01:22:33):
On Friday, Donald Trump posted, I absolutely love that.

Speaker 4 (01:22:37):
Colbert got fired.

Speaker 1 (01:22:39):
His talent was even less than his ratings. How dare you, sir?
Would an untalented man be able to compose the following
satirical witticism?

Speaker 4 (01:22:52):
Go yourself, Stephen Colbert.

Speaker 28 (01:23:00):
I love when they get you know, canceling the show
was taken off, and they take to their shows platform
to let people have it like Joyanne Read did the
same thing, and I love when you do that.

Speaker 4 (01:23:10):
Well.

Speaker 22 (01:23:11):
He also talked about because a lot of people were
having conversations in Trump mentioned ratings and then people who said,
then CBS came out and said this was a financial decision.

Speaker 15 (01:23:19):
Colbert Colbert got into that too.

Speaker 1 (01:23:21):
Let's say listen, CBS, our network, CBS, who I want
to reiterate, have always been great partners, put out a
statement saying a very you know, very nice things about
me and about the show, and thank you to them
for that. They clarified that the cancelation was purely a
financial decision. But how how could it purely be a

(01:23:41):
financial decision? If the late show is number one in ratings.
A lot of folks, A lot of folks are asking
that question, mainly my staff's parents and spouses. Well over
the weekend, somebody at CBS followed up their gracious press
release with a gracious anonymous leak saying they pulled the
plug on our show because of losses pegged between forty

(01:24:03):
million and fifty million dollars a year. Forty million is
a big number. I could see us losing twenty four
million dollars. But where would Paramount have possibly spent the
other sixteen million?

Speaker 22 (01:24:14):
Oh yeah, yes, so he got right to the things
as he should in. The full monologue is available on
the on their YouTube channel as well. It's he makes
fun of almost everything that has been said about this cancelation.

Speaker 5 (01:24:28):
Yeah, and it's really that simple for everybody saying that,
you know, the cob cancelation wasn't political and it was
just financial. Every single late night show is having financial
issues since COVID. Late night ad revenue has been damn
near cut in half, and every other show has done
things to cut back on costs.

Speaker 4 (01:24:42):
Jimmy kimmelll doesn't work in the summer.

Speaker 5 (01:24:43):
Jimmy Fallon only does four days a week seth Maya's
cut his band. They ain't even attempt to do anything
with Colbert. And out of all of late night shows
on regular TV, you get rid of the highest rated show.

Speaker 4 (01:24:54):
You just get you just get rid of it.

Speaker 5 (01:24:56):
And you think the same president who just told folks
in DC, if you don't change the name back to Redskins,
I'm not approving the new stadium. You don't think he
would do that a the CBS, knowing paramount needs him
to approve the merger between Scott Dance in Paramount. Come on,
come on, come on, now, come on now.

Speaker 4 (01:25:11):
Well, yeah, things should be good down.

Speaker 22 (01:25:16):
He made a joke about you know them text messages
that text you about like a job, and he made
a joke about getting one of those text messages too.
So he said he gonna figure it out.

Speaker 7 (01:25:28):
He's gonna live his best life.

Speaker 5 (01:25:29):
It's probably be some of the best late night we've
seen in a long time.

Speaker 15 (01:25:33):
I agree.

Speaker 22 (01:25:35):
Well, Speaking of other shows, Kirk Franklin has his show
Denn of Kings.

Speaker 15 (01:25:39):
He was up there speaking about it. Yes, I love
the show as well.

Speaker 22 (01:25:42):
So he sat down with Tyler Perry, Derek Hay's and
Geezi for another conversation in a new episode, and they
talked about a lot of different things. Tyler Perry, I'm sorry.
Before we get to Tyler Perry, Kirk Franklin opened up
about some of the mistakes he made in business early
on Let's take a listen.

Speaker 30 (01:25:59):
I know that one of the biggest mistakes I made
at twenty three years old. I messed up then on
my publishing and didn't have the money that I could
have had.

Speaker 3 (01:26:11):
I missed the opportunity to really.

Speaker 7 (01:26:13):
Be a boss. R twenty three?

Speaker 3 (01:26:14):
What what?

Speaker 7 (01:26:15):
What album?

Speaker 17 (01:26:15):
Was that?

Speaker 7 (01:26:16):
The first record? Why We Sing record, the first Why
we Sing? Why We Sing?

Speaker 31 (01:26:20):
You you didn't or you still don't own I.

Speaker 30 (01:26:23):
Just started to own my publishing. Guess what song was?
My first song Onwing was taking me to the King
and Artist?

Speaker 7 (01:26:30):
You kidding me?

Speaker 30 (01:26:30):
So from my twinnies to my authorities, I owned none
of my publishing. Now, of course you know I got
my songwriter's part, but I didn't get what is the
most important part That people are right that that that copyright.

Speaker 22 (01:26:45):
Can y'all imagine from that's crazy? That's the reason why
we sing all the way? To take me to all
those big, huge.

Speaker 28 (01:26:51):
Songs, the Rebirth that like, all those albums that led
up to the one that Take Me So the King
was on.

Speaker 15 (01:26:57):
That's crazy.

Speaker 6 (01:26:57):
Crazy thing is most artists like that, though most all
done on the publishing. The label box it early on
gives him a little advance, and they're happy with that
advance at the time, and then when they started selling
recent like, oh how come.

Speaker 2 (01:27:07):
I ain't get no no, nothing to mail.

Speaker 6 (01:27:09):
There's no checks coming in, and they got to sit
there and try to fight and buy it back.

Speaker 5 (01:27:12):
I didn't see this video. What was they eating because
it sounds like his mouth was watering, like he couldn't
even talk.

Speaker 22 (01:27:16):
But I forget what was on the menu this episode,
but they it's the chef makes it lie like, makes
it while they're talking and brings it out.

Speaker 4 (01:27:25):
Franklin and z I know they're eating good. Who else
was there?

Speaker 15 (01:27:27):
Derek?

Speaker 22 (01:27:27):
Is he a pinky cold floody be Vegan. It's her husband.
He owns a cheese sick brand.

Speaker 7 (01:27:31):
He's like a big.

Speaker 6 (01:27:32):
Danger Philly cheesteak is as like. I think like fifteen
of them.

Speaker 15 (01:27:36):
Yeah, I think they're also in Atlanta right now.

Speaker 2 (01:27:38):
In Orlando, Atlanta.

Speaker 5 (01:27:40):
Yeah, good brother, whatever they was eating with the taste
was still in Kerk's mouth.

Speaker 4 (01:27:44):
He couldn't merely talk.

Speaker 7 (01:27:46):
I thought he was cooking.

Speaker 15 (01:27:48):
That's the chef plating.

Speaker 2 (01:27:49):
The chef chef is there.

Speaker 22 (01:27:52):
Yeah, And actually they were standing that They hadn't even
gotten like fully seated.

Speaker 15 (01:27:55):
They were just like standing up.

Speaker 22 (01:27:56):
So maybe I was like orders or something that he
was eating because they standing up in that clip. And
then they go aller parients, go sit let's go sit down.
Then they sit down and continue the conversation. But as
we wrap, upler peris to them because.

Speaker 4 (01:28:06):
They had like this is my.

Speaker 22 (01:28:08):
Podcast, no, because the conversation was getting so good just
off the rip. I mean, you got these Tyler Perry jeezy,
all these people in the room, they start talking.

Speaker 15 (01:28:16):
Tyler Perry brought up a point.

Speaker 22 (01:28:18):
He talked about a lot you talking about fire family members,
but he talked about budgets and how people criticize his
work not understanding.

Speaker 15 (01:28:23):
Let's take a listen to that.

Speaker 7 (01:28:25):
Have you ever felt like the underdogs? Are you sitting
even now.

Speaker 31 (01:28:31):
Still fighting for My wife can get all of these
they can get ten times, twenty times. But I have
a friend of mine gotten twenty seven million dollars in
an episode of the right television what I'm barely getting
four what and they're complaining about giving me for so
the way they justified it simply, this is like, okay,
well your audience is to this and you're only going
to reach this, So this is what this is worth

(01:28:52):
to us. And That's been my whole struggle. But I've
never been a person that's sat around arguing about it
trying to figure it out. Okay, So so what I
would do is say, okay, you only want to give
me this for I have to hold on their ownership.
I got a lot of flat because people are just like, oh,
the quality of work, the quality of your work, And
it's always back too to make me go, it's just
such about because you don't undertand what you're saying the
quality of work based on the amount of money I

(01:29:13):
was able to get. It's phenomenal. But if I could
ever get what my counterparts get, I show you something.

Speaker 15 (01:29:20):
That's the crazy thing. I ain't never complain about his quality.

Speaker 28 (01:29:23):
The quality is is production is always like cameras and
all of that.

Speaker 7 (01:29:26):
I don't I don't know, I ain't never hear. I
don't know.

Speaker 28 (01:29:29):
I hear people complaining about how it all the time,
but the quality ain't never been in questions. What are
they complaining about, like writers, the writers, Yeah, writers, and
of course the stories starting. You know, the story is
how they how he makes black people look. That's always
been the talk. But I ain't never a nobody complain
about no quality. I mean in the plays when they
used to have my dead Mike land on the floor.

Speaker 7 (01:29:49):
But it's a play.

Speaker 5 (01:29:51):
I don't know what really was not real though, cause
i'd be feeling some people post until I actually watch
it myself. Because I saw something the other day and
they was like they had somebody yelling cut while the
show was on.

Speaker 4 (01:30:00):
That's not real, Like this can't be real.

Speaker 28 (01:30:02):
No, I think it was. But that's the thing that
stuff don't usually happen. That's like to be stuff that
that's funny because I see that one too. That's maybe
that was a mistake. But I read about his quality.

Speaker 22 (01:30:15):
Not more recently, there was continuity conversations to about like.

Speaker 2 (01:30:21):
Come back.

Speaker 22 (01:30:22):
But I mean at this point, like Tyler Perry is
doing what he's doing at a major level, so I
understand what he's saying.

Speaker 4 (01:30:27):
But I don't even hear people complain about the wigs
one more exactly at first.

Speaker 15 (01:30:33):
That's not exactly because at first it was the wigs. Yes,
but he said Lauren.

Speaker 4 (01:30:37):
Took the energy.

Speaker 15 (01:30:39):
Yeah, I did not say that. I thought you say that.

Speaker 7 (01:30:44):
Never happened.

Speaker 15 (01:30:45):
Don't make me know that I did not know.

Speaker 2 (01:30:49):
The choice mixes up and hearing things don't go anywhere
because she heard.

Speaker 6 (01:30:54):
Behind the wig gets the breakast Legging Morning, the Breakfast Club.
