Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yes, she browth, what's that?
Speaker 7 (05:11):
Me?
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Me? Good morning?
Speaker 8 (05:12):
Me?
Speaker 9 (05:12):
Me, good morning, Envy Charlotagne, Jef's how y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Good?
Speaker 9 (05:17):
Good morning, I'll say it. So we started this morning
with a rare behind the scenes look at the Trump
White House. So in a new Vanity Fair profile Chief
of Staff Susie Wilds, she is offering an unfiltered look
at the president, his inner circle, and the decisions driving
his second term. So the interviews they were conducted for
the first eleven months of Trump's second term, and the
(05:39):
profile Wiles she starts with the president and then she
moves through his inner circle in some of the administration's
most consequential decisions. Now, while she describes President Trump as
having what she calls an alcoholic personality, not because he drinks,
but because Trump operates with a belief that there's nothing
he can't do. And on the Jeffrey Epstein files, Wilds
(05:59):
said Attorney General Pam Bondi she quote completely whiffed the rollout,
under estimating how much of Trump's base would care about
the documents and how badly the messaging would Land. She
also acknowledged that Trump's name appears in the Epstein related records,
saying he was on the flight manifest and he had
been on Epstein's plane, but insists there is no evidence
(06:21):
tying him to any wrongdoing. And as for Elon Musk,
Whiles she called the billionaire quote an odd, odd duck.
She says he's difficult to manage and refer to him
as an avowed ketemine user. She also strongly disagreed with
how Musk dismantled major parts of the federal government, and
when it comes to tariffs, she described those as thinking
(06:42):
out loud and on Venezuela, she says President Trump wants
to quote keep blowing up boats into madul CRY's uncle.
Now during this interview, Yes, during this interview, but now
Whiles she's now pushing back claiming that Trump is on
a political retribution to Oh, she's pushing back on the
fact that Trump is people are claiming that Trump is
(07:03):
on a political retribution tour. But she did carve out
one exception, saying that a New York Attorney General, Letitia James,
she might be the one retribution, pointing to that roughly
five hundred million dollars civil lawsuit that James won against Trump. Now,
after this profile was published, Wilds accused Vanity Fair of
taking her comments out of context and portraying the administration
(07:24):
as chaotic. But the journalists behind this story, Chris Whipple,
he is standing by his reporting, noting that the interviews
they were recorded over eleven months and that the audio
there are audio recordings that exist that will back up
each one of these quotes. In the White House, they
quickly rallied behind Wild's and of course they are calling
this fake news. Let's hear what Caroline Levitt and JD.
(07:47):
Vance had to say about this Vanity Fair article.
Speaker 10 (07:51):
This is, unfortunately another example of disingenuous reporting where you
have a reporter who took the chief of staff's work
wildly out of context, did not include the context those
conversations were had within. And then further, I think the
most egregious part of this article was the bias of
omission that was clearly present. And we see a lot
(08:12):
of this when dealing with the media every day. You know,
many people in this building spoke with that reporter in
those comments were never included in the story, probably because
it didn't push this false narrative of chaos and confusion
that the reporter was clearly trying to push. Sometimes I
am a conspiracy theorist, but I only believe in the
conspiracy theories that are true.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Susie and I have joked in private and in public
about that for a long time.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
You bet I have those audio clips already because the
Trump administration will sue and I would like to handle
context as well. They've already had to play.
Speaker 9 (08:46):
I think it was a New York Post who they
had to play an audio clip for because someone said
I think it was a while she said something didn't happen.
I think she called she said that Elon Musk was microdosing.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
She said that he did not say that.
Speaker 9 (08:58):
The New York Times they called the reporter. The reporter
played that audio clip, and that is in fact what
she said.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Well, she seems like a very honest chief of staff.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
So my question is why is she in the Trump
administration with that type of honesty?
Speaker 8 (09:12):
Good question.
Speaker 9 (09:13):
Well, it's not just those quotes that are drawing attention.
I know, you guys saw those those photos, those blow
those blurred not they're not even blurred, they're just blown
up really big on those.
Speaker 8 (09:23):
Extreme close ups.
Speaker 9 (09:24):
They're sparking a lot of talk online with viewers calling
those images everything from jarring to a jump scare. But
the photograph or the photographer who took those portraits, he
said that they weren't meant to embarrass anyone, but to
just strip away the performance of politics and show something
even more real. So those photos are making their way
on social media and actually trending this morning, so we
(09:45):
haven't seen them.
Speaker 8 (09:46):
Take a look.
Speaker 9 (09:48):
And turning down to Capitol Hill, where in action on
healthcare could soon mean higher costs for millions of Americans.
So Speaker Mike Johnson, he says Republicans will not allow
a vote to extend the enhance Obamacare substant that are
set to expire at the end of the year, despite
the pressure from moderates who wanted to go on the
record that Johnson said about a dozen Republicans in competitive
(10:08):
districts they push for a vote, arguing it would help
lower costs for their constituents, but leadership they could not
come to an agreement. But the House is still expected
to vote today on a broader Republican healthcare bill, but
it does not include those acaight subsidies. So that means
that those premiums in about fifteen days will expire if
Congress does nothing. And just on a quick note on
(10:30):
a separate issue, President Trump, he is expected to address
the nation tonight at nine pm at the White House,
delivering a live primetime speech and expected to touch on
issues from border security, the economy, and what's ahead in
the coming year. So we will watch that and report
on that tomorrow.

Stuff you missed in history class, stuff to blow your mind.
Three and out with John made I'm gonna say his
name wrong, Medcliffe.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
Listen as a person who loves podcasting, who's been watching
podcasting of all from the beginning. It's just incredible to
see the business of podcasting expanding.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
This one.
Speaker 14 (22:57):
Yeah, that's dope. No, because, to be honest, back when
it first thought, I never thought. I never saw this
for podcasting really, so yeah, no, not Netflix and all this, No,
because TV is.
Speaker 8 (23:08):
Going out the window, so you got to put stuff somewhere.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
I miss one going out the window.
Speaker 8 (23:13):
People don't sit down and watch cable TV, but they
used to. They watch streaming, They watch.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Netflix, but it's still TV.
Speaker 8 (23:18):
Yeah, y'all know what I mean.
Speaker 18 (23:20):
Like traditional cable television is a lot different nowadays.
Speaker 5 (23:23):
Cable television has gone the way of the streaming service exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 18 (23:27):
I missed one too. I wanted to mention this one,
bird Bones. It's a history and true crime podcast with
join on is Kate Winkler.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I think it's beautiful.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
You know. You know, back in the day they said
if you build it, they will come. Nowadays you have
to meet people where they are. And you know, Netflix
has over three hundred million page subscribers and they are
in one hundred and ninety million countries. So yes, we
will be meeting those people where they are. Let me
not say week, but people will be meeting those people
where they are. And I look forward to watching some
of those podcasts and other languages. That's gonna be hilarious. Oh,
(23:55):
that'll be.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Funny watching the Breakfast Club and other languages too. But
I just want to club in Spanish. In Spanish. Maybe, yes,
I am.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
I'm gonna be able to do that. It's gonna be done.
But you know, I just want to say I just
love to see what Netflix is done. Remember Netflix just
started as that bread box outside of the store.
Speaker 5 (24:14):
Dollars.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
Yeah, you could go get these movies and blockbusters, and
how they grew to where they're at now is just crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
It's just amazing that vision of Netflix.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
This is so why audio is the best form of
entertainment too, because you can take audio and do so
many things with it, you know what I mean, whether
it's radio podcast and you can listen to it first
and you can record it for a visual and then
you can watch it and you can you know, to
do the audio scripted content. You could take that content
and just you know, it can turn into so many
different things documentaries, TV film.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
I guess is yes, this is amazing, beautiful Netflix good morning,
good morning.
Speaker 18 (24:48):
But one of the questions though, is for so for
the podcast if things are going off of YouTube, I'm
told that the exclusive content will be on Netflix.
Speaker 5 (24:57):
But anybody talking about none of this, Yeah, somebody just
did that.
Speaker 8 (24:59):
I talking. I made sure that, I said, make sure
I say it.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
She has sources.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
You don't know what is going on.
Speaker 8 (25:05):
Who knows because people have questions about what that means
where the content will be.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Nobody knows nothing, they don't and then I will be
censored like like.
Speaker 8 (25:13):
I don't know that I didn't. I wasn't told that line,
but I won't say that.
Speaker 5 (25:17):
On the radio. But no, no, was Netflix is still
the foundation man.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Audio Still she.
Speaker 8 (25:23):
Means like as if you were headed, like like you
know what I'm saying, like.
Speaker 5 (25:27):
Exactly what that's why.
Speaker 4 (25:30):

Speaker 2 (28:48):
My girl, it's the Breakfast Club on morning everybody, It's
d J n V. Just hilarious, charlamage the guy. We
all to breakfast club.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
Let's get back to some front Page News now expanses
up with sports.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
Yesterday.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
Last night, the New York Knicks won the NBA Cup.
They beat this San Antonio Spurs one twenty four, one
to thirteen. Jaylor Brunton was the MVP twenty five points,
eight assists and four rebounds. Also, we got a salute
to Terrence Crawford and now see himself retiring. He's thirty
eight years old. He has a record of forty two
and zero. So congratulations, said Terrence crawfid.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
Terrence Craft is one of those fighters that you really
gonna miss when he's gone. Like you know what I'm saying,
because I think sometimes when we live in when we
live within the greatness, like we watch it, you kind
of tend to take it for granted, and then when
it's over, that's when everybody starts doing their retrospective.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Like, ah, he really was that dude.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
Yeah, the sad thing about Arry I don't want to
see the sad thing about Terrence Crawford. But the sad
thing about Terrence Crawford is for a lot of casual
boxer fans, they just started hearing his name a couple
of years ago, you know, which is sad. But he
didn't really I feel, get the light from the casual
boxer fans. They just started diving into his career. He
went out on top, you know, beating Canelo Alvarez, you
know on Netflix. Can't get much bigger than that.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
You're right, what's that mean mean?
Speaker 9 (30:00):
Good morning, Envy, Josh Lamage, how y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 2 (30:02):
That's how we favored How are you mean me?
Speaker 9 (30:04):
Good morning? So we started this hour with the latest
on the manhunt following that deadly shooting at Brown University.
Speaker 8 (30:10):
As investigators they move into day five with no suspect
in custody.
Speaker 9 (30:14):
Now, authorities in Providence say they are still searching for
the person responsible for the attack that killed two students
and injured nine others inside the engineering building on campus
on Saturday afternoon. Now, investigators they release new enhanced images
and video Tuesday yesterday, and they're asking the public to
look closely, not just at the person's face, but how
(30:35):
they move and in hopes that someone may recognize this individual.
Let's listen to what investigators said during that briefing yesterday.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
We believe that he was actually incason out this area
to commit to Cristice. No, if that's that criminals do
you want to focus on the body movements, the way
the person moved their arms.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
The body posture, the way they carry their way.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
I think those are the important movement patterns that may
help you identify this individual, which is extremely important.
Speaker 9 (31:06):
Well, police are really leaning on the public and the
tips to help find this individual. They say that that
person of interest who was detained earlier in investigation, they
have now been cleared. But so security analysts say that
that focus early on that individual may have set the
investigation back by as much as a day.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
Now.
Speaker 9 (31:24):
Authorities believe the shooter spent more than five hours in
the area before opening fire, possibly casing that location, then
disappeared into the surrounding neighborhoods when camera footage Where camera
footage is limited to investigators, They are working through hundreds
of tips, reviewing new video, and collecting DNA samples from
potential leads, suggesting they may have physical evidence, but no
(31:46):
match yet in the national database. One victim remains in
critical condition this morning, while others are recovering and of
course classes and exams they remain canceled.
Speaker 5 (31:57):
I honestly be feeling like with all this technology that
we have today, they already know who the person is.
I just think that they, for whatever reason, they just
take their time going to get them. I think, just
to see what else he is doing, to see if
that first individual may be connected to others, Because, like
I said, with all the technology we have today and
everything on being undersurveillance, they know who this guy is already.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
I really truly believe that.
Speaker 9 (32:17):
Yeah, And I think because they made a mistake the
first time around that they're being extra cautious this time
around before they give you a lot of information to
the public on what they do know.
Speaker 8 (32:26):
We'll continue to watch that.
Speaker 9 (32:27):
So if you're flying anywhere in the US, here's an
important update involving airport security and Immigration Enforcement now. According
to The New York Times, TSA is now sharing passenger
lists with Immigration and Customs Enforcement several times a week.
So that means CSA is giving ICE the name of
people expected to pass through US airports.
Speaker 8 (32:47):
ICE then checks.
Speaker 9 (32:47):
Those names against its database and against the people it
believes are subject to deportation, so if there's a match,
agents can be sent to the airport to detain that person.
TSA and ICE, they are both part of Homeland Security,
and it's unclear how many people have been arrested because
of this information sharing, but the paper said that it
reviewed documents showing at least one case that tied directly
(33:10):
to the program. So back in November, a college student
headed home to Texas to see your family for Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving,
she was arrested at the airport in Boston and she
was deported just two days later. And now, according to
her family, she was brought to the US from Honduras
when she was seven years old, and they say that
she did not know that she was under a deportation order.
Speaker 8 (33:31):
And as people get.
Speaker 9 (33:31):
Ready to travel for the holidays, it is a reminder
that routine domestic air travel is being used as an
immigration enforcement checkpoint. That means simply boarding your plane inside
the US can now trigger immigration enforcement.
Speaker 5 (33:45):
Dam I didn't even know you get deportation orders.
Speaker 8 (33:49):
Yeah that's great.
Speaker 9 (33:50):
Yeah, well to that point, civil rights advocates say this
raises concerns about transparency and due process. So whether people
really understand the risk of traveling, especially you know, people
who have lived here in the US for years, they
may not even realize that their their immigration status is
unresolved and so there is no deportation order. Really, it's
like your name comes up and they come get you.
Speaker 8 (34:12):
Really, that's what's happening.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
That's crazy.
Speaker 8 (34:15):
Just yo, go ahead, listen because got a call last week, right,
I'm like, I swear from Ice, right, so.
Speaker 5 (34:25):
Listen, shut up. So he called me.
Speaker 14 (34:27):
He was like, yeah, you funny, And I'm like, what
are you talking about? He was like, yeah, all right,
you try to you know, the ice ice joke ain't funny,
and I'm like no. He was like, yo, they're calling
people like they're calling people.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
They just got to make sure make sure nothing even if.
Speaker 8 (34:42):
Somebody is playing on the phone.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
He thought it was me.
Speaker 8 (34:44):
It ain't me.
Speaker 5 (34:45):
They got to make sure.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Be careful if y'all doing any traveler with the holidays.
Speaker 17 (34:50):
OK.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
So all I'm saying, all right, especially what you're in law, just.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
Be careful, all right, y'all.
Speaker 9 (34:56):
Switching gears, would you guys watch Instagram reels on television
or would you just stick to watching them on your phones?
Speaker 14 (35:02):
You may if you watching TV and they already come up.
I mean it's like whatever phone is TV TV is
the phone.
Speaker 9 (35:08):
Now, well that's a good point because Instagram is now
testing a new Instagram for TV app. It's officially bringing
reels to your television screen. So the test is rolling
out on Amazon fireTV devices, letting users who watch those
short term, short form videos on much larger screens. You
can stay at home. You can watch it straight from
(35:28):
your couch and set up your phone. So the idea
is to take those same brills that you already scrow
th role on your phone and hook them up to
your TV. But Instagram, they are trying to compete with
TikTok and YouTube now, so the videos they won't be
reformatted for your television. They'll still play vertically, just on
a much larger screen. They'll be three minutes or less.
(35:49):
And families they can link up to five Instagram accounts
to that one TV shared profile. Viewers can browse reels
by interest based so if you're into sports, music, travel,
and you can make it less about endless scrolling and
more about what you actually want to watch. So for now,
Instagram says the focus is on making the experience feel natural,
so they're not adding ads just yet, but it sounds
(36:11):
like if this is a hit that they will start
adding ads to yep, to your scrolling. And the expansion,
they said they plan to expand to other platforms, not
just Amazon Amazons Stick, but that is expected later and
they have not given a timeline on when they expect that.
And lastly, have you guys bought your Powerball tickets yet?
Speaker 8 (36:33):
I'm about you now. I hate charlamage. Have you talking
about it all the time? I'm about to start about
to pull it out of his wallet.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
His mind from Monday, I got to buy mine for
the day, but this mine. I want to get mine,
So you've got to day.
Speaker 5 (36:47):
Saturday.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
And how much is it?
Speaker 8 (36:51):
It's two dollars, it's two dollars.
Speaker 9 (36:53):
There was no winter on Monday, so that jackpot is
jumped to one point two five billion dollars.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
I need that, okay.
Speaker 9 (37:00):
Yes, it is the sixth largest jackpot ever, you guys.
And the cash option is about five hundred and seventy
two million dollars Jesus Christ.
Speaker 8 (37:08):
And how much of that if you win? How much
of that do you got to pay for?
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Five seventy two minus taxes? So Texas half.
Speaker 9 (37:16):
Damn yep, So you better get your ticket tonight. The
drawing is tonight and we'll see if there is a winner.
The odds are like one in two hundred and ninety
two million something like that. Yeah, but you never know,
you know, could be could be the lucky winner. So
we'll see if there is a winner tomorrow.
Speaker 8 (37:34):
And that is it, y'all.
Speaker 9 (37:36):

Speaker 4 (37:45):
Thanks me, thank you all right, when we come back,
Tamot Braxton will be joining us.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
It don't go anywhere. It's the breakfast club.
Speaker 4 (37:52):
Good Morning Morning, Everybody's DJ Envy just hilarious, Chelamaine to
gud We are the breakfast Club Low on the roses
here as well.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Got a special guest in the buildings.
Speaker 4 (38:01):
Indeed, a new album, Heartbreak, Heartbreak Retrograde is out right now,
ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 2 (38:06):
Tamar Braxton, welcome.
Speaker 5 (38:08):
Back, Hey friends, Look good kids, kids.
Speaker 8 (38:24):
I want great. It is great. Yeah, he's on break
and so you know I can't even reach him.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
You got a lot going on new albums. I'm going positive.
This is great retrograde. Yes, what does retrograde mean to you?
Speaker 8 (38:39):
Like emotionally, well, you know, like mercury retrograde.
Speaker 20 (38:43):
And so it's like a long period of time where
things are just like not adding up, not making sense,
where you just like feel like you're not yourself. And
I chose to take it as something that is positive
instead of a negative. This is the time where I
can evolve, I can be myself and figure out things
that will best suit me in the future. And I
(39:05):
feel like I want to say this. You know, heartbag
retrograde was born here. Really the less conversation that we
had about cheating. So Heartbreak Retrograde is about a woman
who cheats on her spouse and breaks her own heart
by breaking his heart.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Cause you talked about it that accent.
Speaker 5 (39:27):
You heard about it. Yeah, So are these old wounds resurfacing?
Are you finally releasing it?
Speaker 20 (39:32):
I'm releasing it, you know. And I couldn't figure out. Remember,
I was still feeling bad about it.
Speaker 8 (39:37):
I couldn't talk about it. I couldn't figure out how
to break it.
Speaker 20 (39:42):
And you know, putting together this project along with the
movie was very therapeutic for me, and so I'm just
so grateful about it.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
Do you have a call that accent and have that conversation?
How did that go? Well?
Speaker 20 (39:55):
Okay, So we went out to lunch and I explained
to him that this was about that portion of the
relationship and he appreciated that.
Speaker 8 (40:06):
But there were some things about the movie that he
didn't like.
Speaker 5 (40:09):
So, you know, what's so good about this?
Speaker 6 (40:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (40:11):
You know, twenty twenty five is the Year of the Snake,
So we got like what fourteen days left to you know,
shed old habits and embrace personal growth, just like a
shape a snake.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
SHDD you skin.
Speaker 5 (40:23):
Yes, So this album you know me it he'll.
Speaker 8 (40:26):
Me, and I believe like it's spent a lot of
people like, oh my god.
Speaker 20 (40:28):
I've listened to it, and I feel like this is
the medicine that I needed to get over my heartbreak retrograde.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Wow, it wasn't he like you said he didn't like
parts of it? What didn't he like?
Speaker 20 (40:38):
I think that it was a lot of ego, you
know what I mean, because it was based on the
true story. It wasn't everything that happened right, and so
he was just you know, I think it's hard to
see your ex or somebody that you once cared about
or care about and like those positions with someone else,
because I'm sure it brought him back to that moment.
Speaker 4 (40:57):
Didnite feelings when y'all had that dinner, Did y'all did
anything like sparks pop off or say let's try this
again since we're being so open or not.
Speaker 8 (41:06):
I don't think that person is healed in that capacity
for that well, not necessarily. It's a long story.
Speaker 20 (41:13):
I tell y'all off camera, Okay, that conversation men do exactly,
And I think it's.
Speaker 8 (41:21):
Time to have that conversation. I think we need to
normalize that it's both of us.
Speaker 20 (41:24):
That's not just men, you know, it's it's women too,
because just like the same reasons why you know a
man will cheat is because you know things are not
all the way together at home, or things all the
way together with themselves. It's the same thing women go
through the same thing.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
Don't cheat, explain women.
Speaker 8 (41:45):
Black men don't cheat? What did they do? It's another
word for it must.
Speaker 2 (41:48):
No old black men, comma don't cheat. Like I don't
want black men to cheat.
Speaker 18 (41:51):
We don't want black men to cheat. However, thank you well, Tamar.
I was wondering if the ex you were referring to
is in the movie.
Speaker 5 (41:58):
You tried it?
Speaker 8 (41:58):
No, okay, I just wondering because absolutely all right, y'all,
y'all don't believe that I was talking.
Speaker 20 (42:06):
About that because want to bring this up because I
know y'all can't wait. But let's just talk about common sense.
And first of all, we've been knowing each other a
long time. Let's can we stop that can be dead
that now, okay, because I'm just gonna I'm just gonna
be honest about that. Has never been a man who
has experienced Tamar, who didn't want to marry me.
Speaker 8 (42:26):
And so if that was the case, he would be
over here. Everybody cliar now let's.
Speaker 2 (42:31):
Move on, get them together?
Speaker 15 (42:33):
What do.
Speaker 6 (42:36):
Lauren?
Speaker 8 (42:36):
I'm like, who I was talking about Vince because he's
in the.
Speaker 2 (42:42):
Relationship.
Speaker 8 (42:44):
Yeah he is, he is.
Speaker 18 (42:45):
But I didn't know if The reason why I asked
that is because because he's in the your visual giving
you relationship advice and just people seeing him on screen again,
we always just wonder, you know, where the relationship is,
like what that looks like.
Speaker 8 (42:56):
So I didn't know if that was the person you
had to sit down. That's mad, that's what that stops.
Speaker 5 (43:04):
I saw.
Speaker 8 (43:06):
The song said to that point, you're in a good place.
He's a family member, and that's that.
Speaker 20 (43:11):
On that you watched the video with Ben, I saw
him hand taking pictures, you know, Vince being the pictures.
Speaker 5 (43:20):
Was they was killing Vince was sitting in the background
there like they're going, Vince back there with his mouth over.
Speaker 8 (43:28):
So we love it.
Speaker 5 (43:29):
With this album about reliving heartbreak or reclaiming your power.
Speaker 20 (43:32):
From it, it was about taking accountability, you know, and
being responsible for someone's hurt that I caused.
Speaker 8 (43:39):
And like I said, when I was here. I felt
really bad.
Speaker 20 (43:43):
That's really when it like zoned in on me, like, wow,
I really did hurt a person that bad, and I'm
you know, I'm really sorry for that. And I hope
that that person doesn't take that into you know, their future.
I hope it doesn't stifle their growth and like really
truly finding love.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
Was he surprised when you called to have dinner and
talk about.
Speaker 4 (43:58):
It because a lot of times they say women don't apologize,
So was he shocked and surprise?
Speaker 5 (44:02):
M I don't.
Speaker 8 (44:04):
I don't know, I can't. I don't know if I
can answer that. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (44:07):
I also don't think men cheap because you said that earlier.
But I don't think men cheap because there's something.
Speaker 2 (44:10):
Wrong at home. I do.
Speaker 8 (44:13):
I think there's something that's missing.
Speaker 2 (44:14):
I think it's something missing within you as a day.
Speaker 20 (44:17):
Do you think so you think it's all about the man.
Has nothing to do with the woman, there's nothing to
do with the connection with another person.
Speaker 4 (44:22):
I think every situation is different. But I think a
lot of times man trying to feed his ego, you
know what I mean? And I think that's the main
I think men need to grow up at times. And
I don't think they've got to the place where they
understand what the word love really means and what it
really is.
Speaker 5 (44:34):
Because you don't really love yourself correct and it's like,
you know, it's like pouring water into a cup that
ain't got no bottom. So you just constantly think he's feeling,
it's feeling, it's feeling, and it's not. That's why most
of the time you feel very empty after you, you know, cheat.
Speaker 8 (44:46):
But what if you can't reach that other person, what
if you can't reach your partner.
Speaker 2 (44:50):
That's a different circumstance.
Speaker 5 (44:51):
I'm not saying that there can't be times when you
know it's problems at home, but it's really the guy, Well,
I learned something.
Speaker 8 (44:58):
To that I didn't know that.
Speaker 18 (44:59):
Okay, did you feel like on the other side, like
did you feel like it was something missing or did
you like, was there like some self searching you had
to do when you decided some.
Speaker 20 (45:09):
Healing that I needed to address. And also I was
just really confused. And then, if I'm being honest, I
just wasn't ready.
Speaker 8 (45:23):
I just wasn't ready.
Speaker 5 (45:24):
Was there any moments while you was recording this album
where you had to stop because it was too real.
Speaker 8 (45:28):
Yeah, a lot, and and and.
Speaker 20 (45:30):
The film too, because it just brought back a lot,
like I'm gonna take you one part that was really
really real.
Speaker 8 (45:36):
Did he shifted once again? You shifted my uterus? That
is what he read. Oh that was a real text.
That was you got to explained to for the people,
so you know what the.
Speaker 4 (45:45):
Needs he having flashbacks on again again. I'll just say that,
like that's such a hard, calmed down.
Speaker 5 (46:00):
I'm just saying you already cheated him.
Speaker 13 (46:02):
I know.
Speaker 20 (46:04):
When a woman like really understands and falls into her
masculine energy, we become you all.
Speaker 8 (46:11):
And that's what that text was. I was just basically
macin the way.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
I've never told a woman that.
Speaker 5 (46:24):
Imagine you imagine a man cheated on you and then
told you that the woman he cheated with.
Speaker 8 (46:29):
Oh okay, is that equivalent.
Speaker 2 (46:35):
I'm just trying to hurt you because.
Speaker 18 (46:38):
No, no, no, he went through my phone and read that,
And did you clear that with the person that you
actually your ex before you put that in the visual?
Speaker 8 (46:45):
Because that I know that still hurts and he had
to watch it.
Speaker 20 (46:47):
Yeah, but you know, I only have to address it
with honesty. You can't have accountability without honesty.
Speaker 8 (46:53):
I had to have honesty.
Speaker 2 (46:55):
That's it.
Speaker 8 (46:57):
That's it. I had to address what I know that
hurt you.
Speaker 2 (47:02):
That's different. Damn. I wish we could get a PPL.
Speaker 8 (47:17):
Now though, So okay.
Speaker 18 (47:25):
The way that the album lines up, in a way
the visual goes, it tells the story, right because in
the beginning, it's like you're happy. It's like you're y'all
are just discovering each other when you know, you know
it is the first song individual writing, when you know
you know about your ex. What is it that you
discovered you lost from that point to the point where
you get to like, you know, uh, letter to allo man,
(47:48):
what you mean like what what changed in your relationship?
Like at that point of what changing you where you
were like, okay, I just was so sure about this
and then it went from so short to like you
mess somebody else and you just completely forgot about what
you were sure.
Speaker 8 (48:00):
I didn't meet nobody else.
Speaker 20 (48:02):
I basically revisited something that I was as completely over.
And if I'm being honest, I was honest with that
person about that. When we first started dating, you know,
we were still talking, but we wasn't We were still platonic,
but I still.
Speaker 8 (48:16):
Had feelings and I told that person else for the
uterus shifting you or something else. Yeah, I would devastated.
Speaker 18 (48:30):
Keep explain, what's that conversation like then, Like when y'all
first meet up and you're like, Okay, I want you
to know I still got feelings from my ex.
Speaker 20 (48:39):
Yeah, but I never thought that I would act on them.
I just thought that there were feelings that would eventually
go away. Does that make sense because we kind of
I think that when we're in the single outside moment,
sometimes we go into situations having unresolved feelings, right that
you never think that you're going to like, revisit.
Speaker 8 (48:58):
And I think that's honest, and I think think that's normal.
Speaker 20 (49:01):
You're not gonna like especially if you really, you really
truly love a person to spend time with the person,
it just just doesn't go away overnight.
Speaker 5 (49:08):
That's why you can't be laying down with everybody, because
you really do be exchanging and you really did, and
there is a piece of you that you know you
have shared with that person.
Speaker 8 (49:17):
Yeah, but I was.
Speaker 20 (49:18):
After I was very very sure that I wanted to
be with the other person the person after that, I
was very very sure.
Speaker 2 (49:25):
And does it hurt you to talk about it over
and over and over again, does that body or not?
Speaker 8 (49:29):
I'm completely healed.
Speaker 18 (49:30):
Yeah, so safer on the on the project, right you
talk about like I feel safer. Besides you, you make
me want a pressure wine or which person are you?
Speaker 8 (49:39):
Both? And by being a level two people at the
same time. Yes you have, Yes you have? What do
you mean? No, of course you have a long time.
Get what I'm saying, Like, it's a couple of weeks ago, but.
Speaker 5 (49:52):
That's not you can call her, that's.
Speaker 8 (49:58):
I mean you outside, So you kind of got to
have a it's the PASTA no, I'm sorry, not no more.
But my last relationship before I became single, A variety
of ball of variety, that's what at the time I am.
Speaker 18 (50:11):
My last situation before I became single. I was experiencing like,
how the heck am I still have love for you?
But in love or feeling like I might be able
to be in love with a person again, Like is
that a thing? Like I was kind of like confused,
and I know you had that conversation and your visual
as well, like what is happening right now?
Speaker 8 (50:28):
Because your love is just butterflies and lies?
Speaker 18 (50:30):
Because a lot of times it's not love, it's butterflies
and lies, or if it's actual love with this new
person that you got.
Speaker 8 (50:35):
It was actual love with the new person, but I
had to button it up with the other one. Does
that make sense, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (50:42):
Because if you was really truly in love with somebody, right,
your feelings would take overweight when you would never want
to hurt that person, and you would there would be
no way that you could love two people the same way. Well,
one could be infatuation, one could be you just loved
the uterus moving. One could be just a butterfly. Couldn't please,
don't don't cook that, whatever you do, don't cut that.
Speaker 20 (51:02):
Or it could be the memories or what could have been?
And am I walking away from something that is truly
meant for me?
Speaker 5 (51:13):
You know?
Speaker 20 (51:13):
It was I mature at the time, Was I you know,
healed at the time. Was I a good enough woman?
Did I understand myself at the time. It was all
of those things that I had to figure out, you know,
with those two situations. And I regret that I hurt
that person, I really do, but I don't regret that
I found myself.
Speaker 5 (51:32):
I love this honest conversation yeah, I mean I do.
Do you feel lighter now that this music is out? Dude?
Speaker 8 (51:38):
It really truly held me.
Speaker 2 (51:39):
It really did you feel exposed in a.
Speaker 8 (51:40):
Way, not not in a scandalous bad way as some
people want it to be.
Speaker 4 (51:45):
No, if somebody date you now, can they truly believe
that you're into them and not possibly have feelings for
an X or possibly.
Speaker 20 (51:54):
Well, I was honest with that person. I'm going to
be honest about it. Hey, we're grown and I hate
that I'm outside. I don't be that I'm supposed to be.
However I am, and I'm just too old and evolved
and just secured this. Just sit around and play a game.
Speaker 8 (52:11):
I don't really have time.
Speaker 2 (52:12):
Well, i's dating for you? Now? How is that going on?
Speaker 8 (52:14):
I'm not really doing a lot of it. But outside sucks?
That sucks, you know, that's it?
Speaker 18 (52:20):
Are you intentionally dating? Are you just like having a
good time again a little rosta pasta.
Speaker 8 (52:25):
I am not having a good time. I'm not having
a good time, but it is what it is.
Speaker 20 (52:31):
And you know, I feel like now I put myself
in a position to really truly be with my person
and get it and get all that comes with it.
And I'm ready for it, and so that situation will
never ever ever happen to me again.
Speaker 5 (52:46):
So what is being lighter feel like?
Speaker 2 (52:47):
Because you said now that the music is like you
feel lighter.
Speaker 20 (52:49):
You feel like okay, So you know when you really
truly let something go, guilt go, that's what I feel like.
Speaker 8 (52:56):
I completely let it go.
Speaker 5 (52:58):
You know, I'm telling this, it's the perfect time to
do it.
Speaker 2 (53:00):
This is comic the year really yeah, nine you and
it's a nine year, So nine is the highest level
to change.
Speaker 5 (53:07):
So all of this stuff, You're literally supposed to shed
all of this like a snake shadow.
Speaker 8 (53:10):
So it was supposed to happen.
Speaker 20 (53:11):
It was supposed to It was supposed to have this
conversation a few what is that eight months ago? Put
this record together, Get what tricky? Put this record together,
make this film, make my wrongs, try to make my
wrongs right and grow from it.
Speaker 5 (53:24):
Wow, but you did make.
Speaker 2 (53:26):
Your wrongs right. You you owned up. You do what
you had to do. Now it's on Live the Hill,
but you did what you were supposed to do. I think,
thank you.
Speaker 5 (53:34):
So what did heartbreak teach you that like success, never
could personally about yourself with the heartbreaking.
Speaker 8 (53:41):
Well, I've been let down in both areas. I think
one of them I can control. In one of them
I can't. Yeah, heartbreak, I can control. That will never
happen to me again.
Speaker 5 (53:52):
So what version of Tamon walked into the studio? What
version walked out?
Speaker 2 (53:56):
Well?
Speaker 8 (53:56):
I came in here a little heavy because.
Speaker 2 (53:58):
You know about the studio someone when you did.
Speaker 20 (54:01):
The studio Today was rough for me because I think
that sometimes, like it's a lot, right, and I have anxiety,
and I know and I recognize that I'm not.
Speaker 8 (54:13):
On my medication right now, so it's probably heightened.
Speaker 5 (54:18):
You're gonna get asked.
Speaker 20 (54:20):
I don't want to discuss, you know, and you know,
I don't want to make things worse, not only for myself,
but for my loved ones and loved ones being the
person heart that I broke, or my siblings or I
know it's tough for my mother to see her daughters
that way.
Speaker 8 (54:39):
And I also don't want to give opportunity for anybody
to say anything. Yeah, yeah, but I'm okay now.
Speaker 5 (54:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 20 (54:48):
Before I came in, I just sentered myself and I'm like,
I'm in a safe place. I'm in a safe place
because I'm in control of me, in control of what
comes out of my mouth. And it doesn't matter what
the headlines say. I know that whatever I say, I'm
going to stand by.
Speaker 8 (55:00):
And that's it.
Speaker 5 (55:01):
You know, the uterus shifted's gonna come out because I'm
not about him. But if he start doing it, it's
not he's not as a uterus shifter. Yes, that's like
I should have.
Speaker 15 (55:20):
Its.
Speaker 2 (55:20):
Just want to tell you we love you, support you, Yes,
will we have your back?
Speaker 8 (55:24):
Congrats on Bridezilla to thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (55:28):
I do have one more question, because after heartbreak retrograde,
what does love look like moving forward forward?
Speaker 2 (55:32):
Is it softer?
Speaker 6 (55:33):
Is it guarded?
Speaker 5 (55:34):
Is it fearless?
Speaker 8 (55:35):
It's all of that.
Speaker 20 (55:36):
But I'm looking forward to a soft love, I really am.
I'm looking forward to to catering to and catering to me.
Speaker 8 (55:45):
That's a great place there you go what it's a
great place to be talk opened about it.
Speaker 5 (55:57):
I feel.
Speaker 8 (55:59):
Since are you open? Are you public? Because I won't
be public ever again.
Speaker 2 (56:04):
Wait, just four or five months ago she had to.
Speaker 20 (56:08):
She had to figure out which one it was going
to be single and I was dating. That's right, you
should take more than one.
Speaker 2 (56:14):
She's happy she's glowing now and it's the same thing.
Speaker 20 (56:17):
I'm not the best.
Speaker 2 (56:20):
That before.
Speaker 8 (56:21):
I fixed that before a terrible He brought me spray
on hair dye like.
Speaker 2 (56:25):
Spray covers it. You wait, this is true love, the legendary.
Speaker 18 (56:34):
Why to answer your question, I will talk about being
in a relationship, but I don't want to keep certain
things to myself because I haven't seen.
Speaker 8 (56:42):
Him on your page, not yet.
Speaker 20 (56:43):
Do not show him yet. I just don't show him.
I think that's when things get a little while.
Speaker 8 (56:50):
I mean, don't show already posted him. But oh wow.
Speaker 18 (56:54):
But I will say I think certain things I want
to keep to the chest a little bit, just because
I just it's a people be having a lot to
say and a lot going on, and everybody's not built
to deal.
Speaker 8 (57:04):
With all of that.
Speaker 5 (57:05):
And you don't know if that man got a whole
other family.
Speaker 8 (57:10):
Exactly what he got and he don't got. Don't play
with me, that's what I did. Oh that show boo boos,
this is girl. How long has it been boom?
Speaker 2 (57:17):
You can't even see that? Bolls spot stop? How you
gonna lie to like that? Sometimes? How long you've been
with the man? He said? Sometime, I've been dating for
a while. It's a while, Lauren, you all in my business?
Speaker 8 (57:29):
Okay, So did you know about the other people you
were dating? Why he was dating? O?
Speaker 6 (57:32):
Wow?
Speaker 18 (57:33):
When I met him the people that I was like,
kind of have a conversation where we had that conversation. Yeah,
So how did he feel about that we weren't exclusively together?
Like were he gonna you know what I mean? It
was I think more so because we were friends before this,
Like he's not like a stranger. He wasn't really focused
on that. I think he pulled up and understood like, Okay,
once I'm here, I know all that is going to
(57:54):
go by the wayside. So let's just focus on each
other for real in this news space, not as friends.
And so how does men feel about that?
Speaker 15 (58:00):
Up?
Speaker 8 (58:00):
Women dating multiple openly dating the whole.
Speaker 5 (58:05):
I used to call her too low because I feel like,
you like, she's young, you know me and she seeing
the New York. Now go have some fun. But I
just thought it was ridiculous when he took her on
vacation and put will you be my girlfriends? Like you
went like the country?
Speaker 8 (58:17):
Damn, sorry you saw it.
Speaker 5 (58:19):
It was cute, but all the way out the country
to get after you girl.
Speaker 8 (58:22):
Absolutely, you better because this is what I think.
Speaker 20 (58:25):
I think that you were supposed to date several and
mad and made the best man who steps.
Speaker 5 (58:28):
Up when but you done left the man sweat on you.
Speaker 6 (58:31):
So it's like.
Speaker 5 (58:33):
He said that.
Speaker 4 (58:39):
They were they were seeing each other, but they were
joking that. She said, you never asked me, We just
came to It just happened, and that was his joke back,
will you be my girl? They were exclusive.
Speaker 18 (58:49):
I felt like even in my joke as a person
trying to figure out, like how to go into a
relationship because I was in a relationship young and then
it ended when I was like thirty thirty one. So
when I was single, I'm like, I'm just my first
time being an adult and being single. I don't even
know how you get back into a relationship at this point.
But we've had that conversation, and so that was him
being like, Okay, even if you don't know and you're joking,
(59:11):
I want to make sure you feel as secure as
you need to everything.
Speaker 8 (59:15):
He's doing what you need to do, and big fatty over.
Speaker 2 (59:17):
There, that's.
Speaker 8 (59:34):
Remember that used to be.
Speaker 2 (59:39):
Evince.
Speaker 8 (59:40):
I met him and he was a really nice person.
But he's not when you was with him, Teddy. Yeah,
it's not that. But he is a man though.
Speaker 2 (59:53):
This is a man. I enjoyed my.
Speaker 8 (59:54):
Teddy repskin era. I didn't think I would be able
to enjoy that, but enjoyed about victims.
Speaker 5 (59:59):
It's okay to be.
Speaker 2 (01:00:02):
That's what you said.
Speaker 5 (01:00:03):
I think it's for me.
Speaker 18 (01:00:04):
It's not for me now, yeah I can do. He's
not built like your ski. He's just angry and he's
happy for you.
Speaker 8 (01:00:11):
He's just playing so too. Because when I was and he's.
Speaker 20 (01:00:13):
Super happy, I'm inside and being happy for her.

Speaker 5 (01:00:32):
Make sure you walk down, that's all. Yeah, you're good.
Speaker 8 (01:00:36):
You need no don't say that.
Speaker 5 (01:00:38):

Speaker 8 (01:00:39):
But I've known for years.
Speaker 4 (01:00:42):
You knows what of the things they got to do,
well what I advise live with each other, so you
really see the true meaning. You know, those conversations about
bills and finances, and have that conversation about the future.
How many kids you want, how many kids he wants.
You need to have those conversations before you just get
into it and I'm just saying, have those conversations.
Speaker 8 (01:01:00):
But I am also like you know, I mean, I'm
I'm good. I'm in a really great place.
Speaker 2 (01:01:07):

would be returning, if the showould be returning or not.

So I wanted to just send a quick congratulations to him.

Speaker 13 (01:03:39):
And Karma, Karma's a mom.
Speaker 8 (01:03:41):
But I'm in.
Speaker 5 (01:03:42):
Character being a little Rod.
Speaker 11 (01:03:43):
And guess what, I shouldn't have did that either.
Speaker 5 (01:03:45):
I shouldn't have been talking about little Rod.
Speaker 11 (01:03:47):
He might have I don't know if he if what
happened with his ass, but I was insensitive about his ass,
and then it turned on me.
Speaker 8 (01:03:54):
Your ass it turns again.
Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
So I'm looking at it.
Speaker 8 (01:03:57):
I'm like I said, the same.
Speaker 2 (01:03:59):
Ass is run and all that.
Speaker 11 (01:04:01):
On the bus talking about a little ride.
Speaker 2 (01:04:03):
I'm in character.
Speaker 5 (01:04:04):
I'm telling the homies.
Speaker 11 (01:04:05):
This is what he said, and then they clipped it
right there.
Speaker 5 (01:04:08):
But this is not okay.
Speaker 11 (01:04:10):
This is not okay.
Speaker 8 (01:04:11):
Yeah, I'm glad. I'm glad you're a good guy.
Speaker 11 (01:04:13):
And he would never take my ass like that said.
Speaker 8 (01:04:19):
He was acting like somebody else.
Speaker 5 (01:04:21):
Yeah, we caught in the middle of the joke.
Speaker 8 (01:04:23):
Yes, we're always caught in the middle of the joke
with ra J, Like the.
Speaker 5 (01:04:27):
Camera caught him in the middle of the joke. Yes,
everybody knew he was pretending to be a little ride
of somebody or being one of the victims from the doc. Yeah.
Speaker 18 (01:04:35):
So he says that Sheila was alive because I told him.
I was like, I tried to find more of the video,
but I couldn't. Do you have he said, she took
it down once it went crazy, but that's what was
happening now. He also says, because I'm like, well, why
would you just be outside acting like little Little Ride?
Like why even get people that to be able to
clip Let's say, listen to what J said. Why are
you outside in public in character as little Ride?
Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
Like why cousin is telling me?
Speaker 5 (01:05:01):
Okay, So, just like y'all post everything.
Speaker 11 (01:05:03):
Since he posted it, it went viral, saw me on
the bullets talking about it. So when I was in
the casino, everybody was talking to.
Speaker 5 (01:05:09):
Me about what they saw and they was like, that
was wow, funny, y'all, and we just started.
Speaker 11 (01:05:13):
Getting into it.
Speaker 8 (01:05:14):
Got you.
Speaker 5 (01:05:15):
I wouldn't troll on my own.
Speaker 11 (01:05:16):
Ass, because I don't troll my own ass.
Speaker 8 (01:05:19):
Don't you think being outside in characters a little ride
is trolling on your own ass.
Speaker 11 (01:05:23):
It's not trolling on my ass.
Speaker 6 (01:05:25):
It was trolling on his ass.
Speaker 11 (01:05:27):
And I think that's the karma behind it, is that
I shouldn't have been even talking about it and joking
about it, because look what karma did. It made people
think I was talking about my own ass.
Speaker 5 (01:05:37):
First of all, rey J knows what he's doing dropping
the clues Bob rey Ja. We are all part of
the Regar rhythm. Okay, it's a lot of different algorithms,
but then there's a ragarrythm, and and you know ray
J creates his on garhythm every day. He's doing it
right now. He called you yesterday, told you to record him,
and now you're playing it back.
Speaker 18 (01:05:54):
You didn't tell me to record him. He said, can
you please clear things up about my behind? And I said,
what if you did it yourself? Can you speak to
people yourself?
Speaker 6 (01:06:02):
Yes?
Speaker 14 (01:06:03):
Either way, And Laurad is old some money everybody need
to pay him because all of this is built on
the trolling of his ass.
Speaker 6 (01:06:11):
So like.
Speaker 5 (01:06:14):
I know, you don't know documentary talking about sometimes you
woke up next to girls, sometimes you woke up next
to Diddy.
Speaker 2 (01:06:20):
And out there and you were saw But but now
I feel like you're trying to make me laugh.
Speaker 5 (01:06:26):
But no, he wasn't laughing.
Speaker 6 (01:06:28):
Leon was not laughing.
Speaker 5 (01:06:31):
Gave him a little petsy.
Speaker 4 (01:06:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:06:33):
Well when the role play happened too, though, like I've
seen that before. I remember that time was you with
me and Puerto Rico and I was not with you.
Speaker 2 (01:06:43):
No, I was not with you.
Speaker 5 (01:06:44):
When Farnsworth Bentley was like, he's how much I'm gonna
tell y'all about the time I met Diddy and he said, Charlamagne,
you be Diddy and I be I'm gonna be mean.
Speaker 2 (01:06:52):
And he walked up to me and he was like, Hi,
I'm far dropping. I was like, you want to say,
but I was not with you?
Speaker 9 (01:06:59):
Know he like that?
Speaker 5 (01:07:01):
Yes, everybody laughed.
Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
Yes, with the Umbrella was like eleven twelve years ago.
I gradually he was this was there. I wasn't there
with you, but Luthor Farms were if he just stayed quiet, right, people.
Speaker 18 (01:07:16):
Felt successfully well in clearing this up and in ending this,
Ray J says he's now on this like campaign that
he's starting.
Speaker 8 (01:07:24):
Let's take a listen.
Speaker 6 (01:07:25):
This one went everywhere.
Speaker 11 (01:07:27):
Yeah, I bet to the point where I got to
defend it because a lot of times when I do crazy,
it'll just blow away pause, but blow aways crazy. But
this one is going way too viral. And then I
was like gonna think about letting it slide again, and
then I click on it and I'll see you talking
about in his head, Ray J said, did he took
(01:07:47):
my butt? I said, enough enough, It's time to go
on to clear and.
Speaker 8 (01:07:50):
Clean clean my campaign, clean my, clean my eyes campaign.
So what's the moral of the story, Like, what did
you like?
Speaker 11 (01:07:56):
Moral of the story is my bad little ride.
Speaker 5 (01:07:58):
I might be kicked off the border to get agency.
Speaker 11 (01:08:00):
Because they don't know if I'm if I'm real or not,
you know what I mean, only straight guy on the agency.
And so for me to say somebody took me, leaves
in with no choice to say, well you wasn't being.
Speaker 6 (01:08:10):
Who you was, right.
Speaker 5 (01:08:11):
This is this is basically a digital enema, is what
he's doing. He's got a clear his ass. He's got
a clear his ass from all of these accusations that
he started.
Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
By the way, that's crazy. I just want Ray j know,
you the one put Diddy in your ass?
Speaker 5 (01:08:25):
Did this the Gate?
Speaker 2 (01:08:26):
Nobody thought about this?
Speaker 6 (01:08:28):
You did this?
Speaker 5 (01:08:28):
And then I saw a fifty postal clip of did
he talking about ray j On Drake Tamson sounded crazy? Yeah.
Speaker 18 (01:08:36):
Fifty also posted yesterday too talking about the doc and
we talked about this yesterday too with the podcast wrap

I'll make time. I'm working on buying the space where
you film and fifty of your podcast, buying fifty percent
of the podcast. You know, I don't cap. That is
(01:08:58):
his message to the guy's less about this. This Diddy
documentary is never going away? How many staff do like
he is everywhere all the time.
Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
He does what it's like who he does in himself.

But I have a notification set for your pages and

Speaker 6 (01:09:49):
Let me ask you a question.
Speaker 4 (01:09:51):
I think the executives of Netflix woke up this morning
be like, is that the show we show we want?
We talked about Ray Jingo.
Speaker 2 (01:09:57):
Well, I mean they just did a whole documentary.
Speaker 4 (01:10:01):
Look Netflix is yes, exactly, shit okay, like dang, okay,
we speaking of a whore giving you your donkey too.
Speaker 5 (01:10:09):
I'm not giving my donkey, okay. But Donkey of the
Day is going to a young lady named Sophia Malocke.
She is a career shoplifter. But I just think she
wanted to go to jail. We'll discuss, all right, We'll
get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club, Good morning.
Speaker 2 (01:10:24):
Some Donkey to.
Speaker 5 (01:10:24):
Day is just saw themselves Charlotte Man, I was ready for.
Speaker 2 (01:10:30):
I never read the Donkey Day again.
Speaker 5 (01:10:34):
Charla, I'm a duncan.
Speaker 2 (01:10:36):
Yes, you are at.
Speaker 5 (01:10:41):
Charlotte Due.
Speaker 2 (01:10:44):
Yeah, donk here today.
Speaker 5 (01:10:45):
For Wednesday, the Sember seventeenth goes to twenty four year
old Sophia Malcke. Okay, she has a career shoplifter from Harford, Wisconsin.
And what I've realized during this holiday season is some
people just need a warm place to stay. Okay, it's
really just that simple. Some individ jewels I refuse to believe,
or it's stupid. They just want to be in jail
right now. Okay, they want to be in jail. They
need a warm place to stay. I have a theory
(01:11:07):
that some humans are fully aware of the crimes they
are committing and how they are committing them, and the
plan is for them to end up in jail because
they know they will at least have a place to
stay for a few hours, okay, a few meals and
some heat if the jail they are in have heat.
But that's clearly a risk you know, some folks are
willing to take because there's no possible way. Some folks,
it is stupid, but maybe you are because I've been
(01:11:30):
doing Donkey today every day on breakfast club for fifteen years,
never a shortage of heataus to deliver and Sophia milake
is delayed to see. Sofia was quickly arrested in a
Wisconsin Walmart because she is a career shoplifter, all right,
that folks know by name and face. In fact, this
most recent time she got arrested shoplifting was the second
(01:11:51):
time in just a matter of days.
Speaker 2 (01:11:53):
All right.
Speaker 5 (01:11:53):
She had allegedly stolen over six hundred dollars worth of
merchandise just days prior and was found with a cart
full items. Would either Sophia and no, no, don't show
or don't care about the police because she decided to
shop lift from Walmart while a shop with a cop
charity event was happening.
Speaker 2 (01:12:11):
I can't make any of this stuff up. Let's go
to ABC twelve at the report.
Speaker 16 (01:12:14):
Police surveillance photos from a Hartford Walmart December third show
a woman walking out of the store with a cart
overflowing with more than six hundred dollars worth of toys,
decor and clothes.
Speaker 5 (01:12:25):
One problem.
Speaker 16 (01:12:26):
Police say she never paid. Hartford Police Chief Scott McFarlane
says the woman returned to the scene Walmart a few
days later.
Speaker 8 (01:12:33):
This time it was crawling with cops.
Speaker 2 (01:12:35):
We were kind of incredulous that she would come back,
considering there probably wasn't a corner that you could turn
around in the store and not see a police officer.
Speaker 16 (01:12:42):
Police were there for Shop with a Cop, an annual
event where officers helped kids fill holiday wish lists. The
Hartford Police chief says there were more than a dozen
officers inside the store with their squad cars visible parked
out front. Still, he says, she continued to walk inside
the store and began filling up the cart. The chief
says officers arrested her out of the view of the kids,
(01:13:03):
finding nine hundred dollars worth of stolen toys in her car.
Speaker 5 (01:13:07):
The criminal complaint says.
Speaker 16 (01:13:08):
She told detectives she would have shoplifted again, but changed
her mind after seeing the police presence in the Walmart
toy section.
Speaker 5 (01:13:17):
A shop with a cop, sofia not shoplift with a cop. Okay,
she walked into a Walmart. Now this is walked into
a Walmart and shoplifted during a Shop with a Cop event.
This is what the Harford Police Department posted on their Facebook.
Unfortunately for her, she walks straight into a Walmart during
the one time of year when the store is basically
a satellite police station. The police officers knew who she
(01:13:40):
was because they already labeled her a career shoplifter. Sophia,
Never has a human needed a change of environment more
than you. Okay. This is why people send their nephews
to live with their auntie and uncles in Bellez. Okay,
this is why Keisha had to move and transfer high
schools and to mar brought to Kill show based off
Judy Bloom's book Forever that's on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (01:14:01):
She needed a change of environment due to the fallout
from a sex tape her boyfriend Christian. Let everybody see, Sophia,
you are in the same exact boat. You need a
change of scenery. Okay, because if soon as you walk
into a retail store, people know what you're coming to do,
that's the problem, all right. The heart for the police
department said, with a few quick observations and a whole
(01:14:21):
lot of you've got to be kidding me, they confirmed
who you were and took you into custody right there
in the midst of Christmas.
Speaker 2 (01:14:30):
Cheir my god.
Speaker 5 (01:14:32):
They got pictures of her dragging a loaded car to
stolen goods towards the exit, and the cops approached her
and saw two hundred and fifty dollars worth of merchandise
in her card, and she told them that she was
trying to get gift for her kids, but just eventually
admitted she was.
Speaker 2 (01:14:47):
Just trying to steal.
Speaker 5 (01:14:49):
My god, okay. She says she planned on stealing the
goods but decided against it after seeing the number of
police in the store. Sophia, if you wanted to go
to jail, just say that. Okay, you saw all those
cops when you walked in the store, when you was
going from out to hour filling up your cart. You
saw all those cops. But you was probably thinking like
I was thinking back in the day. See, I wouldn't
say I was a career shoplifter, but I have shoplifted, okay.
(01:15:13):
But what I would do is walk in the score,
walk in the store, take what I want, never nothing serious,
you know, six pack of butt eyes, some white owl,
blunt sauce magazine, and just walk out, all right. Don't
try to hide it, don't try to conceal it. Just
walk in and walk right out. That's what I think
Sofia was thinking in her mind, she thought the police
would never think I'm stealing with all him in here,
so let me just try it the real quick. But
(01:15:34):
also stealing out of Walmart is crazy because they always
got the over zealous person that checks your receipt when
you're walking out. So I don't even know what Sofia
was on. But cops also found nine hundred dollars worth
of toys in her trunk already, and now she faces
felony retail theft charges. The heart for the police department
had a little word of advice. They said, if you're
(01:15:54):
planning felony retail theft, maybe avoid today when the building
is basically thirty percent law and Horseman and seventy percent
rapping paper.
Speaker 2 (01:16:05):
Please give Sophia Molick the sweet sounds and the hamiltones.
Oh no, you are the doge of the day, the doge.
Speaker 6 (01:16:19):
All the day.
Speaker 5 (01:16:22):
Yee.
Speaker 14 (01:16:26):
You just to call them the homotones, I heard. But
the crazy thing is, I was not about to say that.
You said give them the sweet sounds of the homotones, saying.
Speaker 2 (01:16:33):
You just want to be on that list.
Speaker 4 (01:16:34):
So now I'm not you not the homotones anyway, anyway,
what only thing that where she.
Speaker 8 (01:16:42):
Went wrong as she got greedy, because I gonna lie,
that's a lick.
Speaker 5 (01:16:47):
That is a lick, that is booster a one all day,
like the police said, on a day on the on
the time when there's thirty percent law enforcement, so it's
mad police in there, and then seventy percent rapping paper,
meaning it ain't nothing but a lot of Christmas.
Speaker 2 (01:17:00):
Stuff in this for the most part, I just won't
to play a game, Oh god, what I won't play again?
Why you won't play game?
Speaker 5 (01:17:07):
Will we obvious? Okay, you think it's obvious. Okay, let's
play a game of yes what rac? Yes, Hart for
the Wisconsin walked into a Walmart is a career shoplifter,
already had nine hundred dollars worth of stolen goods in
her trunk, but decided to walk in during a shop
with a cop event and shoplift some more.
Speaker 2 (01:17:29):
Yes what race?
Speaker 4 (01:17:31):
Just like.
Speaker 5 (01:17:34):
I can see why you say that, Yeah, why you
say that?
Speaker 14 (01:17:37):
First of all, Wisconsin, and she thought like she was,
she wouldn't be caught amongst all the all them cops.
Speaker 5 (01:17:44):
And that's white people. Yeah, okay, all right, uh dj NV,
that's twenty four year old Sophia Mlake, career shoplifter from Wisconsin,
walked into a Walmart during a shop with a cop
event and decided to shoplift even though she already had
nine hundred dollars worth of stolen good Darty in her trunk.
Speaker 2 (01:17:59):
Yes, right, why.
Speaker 4 (01:18:04):
White, white, white, white white watch she was going watch
watch what.
Speaker 5 (01:18:11):
White? Just hilarious and dj NV. I want both of
you to know that you are absolutely positively correct. She
held mountains. She is absolutely positively.
Speaker 2 (01:18:25):
Yeah, she's had white Christmas for the last twenty four years.
Speaker 4 (01:18:29):
Yes, the only white person is gonna go into a
store with a bunch of cops outside and still think
they could get away.
Speaker 2 (01:18:35):
But he thought she was gonna blend in.
Speaker 8 (01:18:36):
I'm telling you that's how them, that's how the white
people think.
Speaker 5 (01:18:38):
Like this is and this is a different This is
the privilege why you can look at her and tell
that she's like, I can't believe y'all arrested me.
Speaker 8 (01:18:43):
Y'all arrested me.
Speaker 2 (01:18:44):
She had no money to die, She had no money.
Speaker 14 (01:18:47):
She tried to lie and say that the kids that
she was stealing for our kids, all them damn toys.
Speaker 5 (01:18:54):
She's like Walmart is mine career Islonization White.
Speaker 2 (01:18:59):
Wait, all right, well, thank you for that. Donk you today.
Speaker 4 (01:19:02):
Now when we come back, we have Isaac's the third
one of the owners, the owner of fan Base, of course,
the social media app.
Speaker 2 (01:19:08):
We're gonna talk to him.
Speaker 4 (01:19:10):
He's raising some money to make sure the app stays
alive and continue some of the great features that the
app has.
Speaker 2 (01:19:14):
We're gonna talk to him next. So don't go anywhere.
You got been cropped.
Speaker 5 (01:19:16):
I've been crowdy.
Speaker 6 (01:19:20):
To say, I.
Speaker 2 (01:19:22):
Dreaming is yo? That's the Breakfast looking morning, Good morning.
Speaker 4 (01:19:30):
Everybody is DJ Envy, Jesse, Larryus, Charlamage the guy we
are the Breakfast Club. Law La Rose is here as well,
and we got a special guest in the building.
Speaker 2 (01:19:38):
Isaac's the third.
Speaker 5 (01:19:40):
Good morning, brother.
Speaker 6 (01:19:41):
What's up guys? How you doing good?
Speaker 5 (01:19:43):
Favorite?
Speaker 6 (01:19:44):
You my brother? I am excellent, I am highly favorite
and blessed us.
Speaker 5 (01:19:47):
Well, So what are we doing today? I think what
we're doing?
Speaker 2 (01:19:49):
What we doing?
Speaker 6 (01:19:50):
What do you mean when we're.
Speaker 17 (01:19:51):
Doing We're closing this round for fan Base. We're closing
this equity crowd for fan Base. It closes today. I
feel like this is a great opportunity for everybody to
give an investment as a gift for people. You know,
I've been here before talked about importance of investing, but
especially with social media, I think we really need to
(01:20:12):
galvanize right now, at this time because the world is shifting.
And so I'm telling everybody go to start engine dot com,
slash fan base and invest to own equity in the company.
Reunite United is a minimum investment, but it's a bigger
story than just investing in fan base.
Speaker 5 (01:20:26):
So when people ask the question, they say, Okay, you
know you raised You've raised millions of dollars for fan base.
You know, they may want to invest. Walk us through,
line by line how that capital gets deployed.
Speaker 17 (01:20:37):
Number One, infrastructure. So we just built a brand new algorithm.
You know, we spent almost half the year working on that.
We have some new key hires. All this capital gets
deployed in hiring better people, like really people that used
to work at Meta, they used to work at TikTok,
they used to work at Snapchat, and those salaries aren't cheap.
(01:20:59):
We also have to higher engineers to build what we're
building and develop those products, and it takes time. Honestly,
the amount of capital that I've raised over a five
year period. Some people get deployed five times that capital
in one year and they earn it all and they
go out of business. And so we've had to really stretch,
(01:21:20):
you know how they say, you know, I'm gonna say
you make the make the money stretch, make the food stretch.
We've had to really make this capital stretch with this company.
But it's a testament to our ability to spend wisely,
higher effectively and continue to build the best product.
Speaker 5 (01:21:38):
Now, I agree with you because you know, we see
these tech companies they get, you know, crazy donations all
the time, raised a lot of capital, a lot more
capital than you have.
Speaker 2 (01:21:46):
How much have you raised over the last what five years?
Speaker 6 (01:21:49):
Twenty twenty three million dollars?
Speaker 2 (01:21:51):
Twenty three million dollars?
Speaker 5 (01:21:52):
Like, yeah, that's I mean, I'm not gonna say that's nothing,
because it is something, right, but compared to the other
tech companies, you know, they get a million dollars in
a month.
Speaker 17 (01:22:03):
Man, Listen, some of these Charlemagne, some of these companies
of raised like one hundred and fifty three million dollars
and have not built but one feature, and they're not
even around anymore. And that's because they blow the money.
It's really it's really tough for black founders. People understand,
like black founders get less than half of one percent
of all capital rais.
Speaker 6 (01:22:21):
They don't want DEI.
Speaker 17 (01:22:22):
They're not trying to give us money, and especially someone
like myself that is disrupting the tech space in building
something that we can own. And then, you know, black
people are on the side of ownership, like you know,
we we don't own nothing. I know, we talk about
a lot of this, you know, a lot about building
generational wealth and you know, those types of things, but
(01:22:43):
we don't own the sports teams, we don't own the
record labels, and we don't own you know, Hollywood, and
we help build up all of these infrastructures and we
don't own them. In social media, we help build up
social media, and they tell us the kids stay behind
and they don't want DEI and all that kind of stuff.
And so for me, this is a mission. This has
been my mission, will continue to be my purpose of
my calling to continue to build this company, allow us
(01:23:05):
to finally have the infrastructure of something that can be
worth hundreds of billions of dollars and pull us all
up and give us opportunity.
Speaker 5 (01:23:12):
We do have to acknowledge the black people who do
own things, though I think I've heard you say that before.
Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
But you know, I think, Okay, you know the urban.
Speaker 5 (01:23:19):
Ones of the world, you know, Kathy Hughes, you know,
worldwide technology. You know, like there's you know, you play
things like Uncle nairis like, there's a lot of things
that black people do own.
Speaker 17 (01:23:29):
Yeah, but look what's happening. But it looks what happening
in a lot of these spaces. A lot of these
companies either don't get the capital that they need, they're
tried to they're you know, handcuffed and what they're able
to do. And you really just name like three businesses
out of like you know, half a million.
Speaker 5 (01:23:45):
Oh yeah, I can keep going. I mean there's there's
hundreds of black owned businesses. I'm just saying, like we
I think sometimes we put that narrative out there, and
I think we got to be more specific, like black
people can own more in the tech space. For sure,
we do own things.
Speaker 4 (01:23:59):
Yeah, But the biggest problem asiut It, Isaac and Charlomagne
I feel is sometimes we talk to people like they
should know, right, A lot of these businesses that are
getting these millions and twenty million and fifty million and
raising one hundred and fifty million dollars. Are investors that
have the money and know why they're investing and hopefully
know where their money's going. But for like somebody like you, Isaac,
(01:24:20):
who you know, who's been on the Breakfast Club but
numerous times and asking for money for crowdfunding, I think
people want to know where that money is going. And
why break it down on a level where people will
understand and what's next for you the reason I'm asking
and break it down for what fan base is and
how much money is needed to make sure this gets
(01:24:40):
to the place of a matter or a Twitter or
Facebook or you know, Instagram, because you have to tell
people like what's the overall goal and what's needed to this?
The fan base is self sufficient, so we don't have
that or will it always be a thing like that
for people that don't understand it, don't know?
Speaker 17 (01:24:56):
No, I think to explain how capitals the employed is.
You know, it's kind of what I said earlier. Tech
companies are not social media platforms are not cheap, right, correct,
And so there's two things. It's how fast you can build,
how well you can build, you know what I'm saying.
And so if you don't have capital to build the
right product, then it's not gonna it's not gonna happen.
(01:25:19):
So we have salaries, we have infrastructure, we have all
the tech stack, you know, all the things that we do.
Speaker 6 (01:25:24):
Like we we employed about forty people.
Speaker 17 (01:25:27):
We have a lot of C suite executives that are
that are working, and all this stuff is built and
rolled into a company that is trying to fight the
fight against major tech corporations. Now, to explain what fan
base is and understand why that it that it costs
what it costs. Fan base is basically social media through
the lens of black ownership. But the functionality is the same. Right,
(01:25:49):
we do have posts, we have stories, we have live,
we have short form, we have long form, we have
audio check, we have algorithm, we have dms, we have subscriptions,
we have tipping. All those parts are put together in
one platform, right and integrate it so that people can
have the ability to monetize their content from the moment
that they sign up.
Speaker 6 (01:26:07):
Build community.
Speaker 17 (01:26:09):
And when you think and when you compare fan base
like and I'll tell anybody to do this, compare fan
base to your experience that you get on a TikTok
or experience that you get on the Instagram, and just
grade us based off that. But remember that those companies
have thirty thousand engineers and have you know, billions of
dollars of capital. And here we are, you know, building
up from the ground up, from scratch with a small team,
(01:26:33):
and we're still here. And I think that's really the
most important part. And then the things that we're things
that we're actually breaking. We're actually breaking the opportunity for
black people to get into the microdrama space, for users
to actually monetize their data and have it trained by
AI if they want to. But on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook,
they're training off your data right now and not paying
(01:26:55):
you anything.
Speaker 6 (01:26:55):
And so this is a real challenge.
Speaker 17 (01:26:57):
But it's a lot of moving pieces in parts that
come to together is make this machine run.
Speaker 2 (01:27:02):
How many months of runway this fan base currently have?
Speaker 17 (01:27:04):
We have about eighteen months of runway, a little bit
longer than that. And you understand like even in that
amount of time, there's so much that you have to
accomplish in that period of time because you're always going
to be raising capital I think the difference between what
I do with everybody else is you publicly hear that
I'm raising all the time. But startups are raising all
(01:27:25):
the time fifty million, one hundred million, two hundred million,
three hundred million, but it usually comes from vcs and
private equity, and those deals are always made public. This
has made public because the people that are investing are
not the rich guys and the billionaires in the oligarchs.
Speaker 6 (01:27:38):
It's you.
Speaker 17 (01:27:39):
It's means the people that we know that are putting
their money into the business. And so that's why it's
so public and you see everything all the time.
Speaker 4 (01:27:44):
So when you say people are investing, so you say
the minimum investment is three ninety nine, So if somebody
invests that three ninety nine, what percentage are of the
company or how much of an investment are they getting?
What's the ROI on that for somebody who you know,
because it's tough out there. But so if somebody wants
to give three ninety nine and they want to know
what they getting back.
Speaker 17 (01:28:02):
Yeah, So every investment that you make, especially in the
early stage company, you ride the life of the investment, correct,
So you're here from the beginning all the way till
we either IPO or somebody acquires the company. So you
see like like if Warner Brothers is about to get
acquired and that that's a different scenario. But when that
company is acquired, the shareholders in that company will all
(01:28:23):
be bought out right and then Netflix or whoever will
acquire that company. So when you do early stage investing
like that in seed startups, that's what you get. And
so for three ninety nine, you're getting a small, small,
small piece of the company. But the upside of what
I tell people is that the value in which these
tech companies get to is where you see a return
(01:28:44):
on your investment. So we're value at one hundred and
sixty million dollars right now. I want to put that
in perspective of what Meta is value. That Meta is
a one point nine trillion dollar company, So you think
about one point six billion, sixteen billion, one hundred and
sixty billion, that's a thousand x return. So someone that
invests three ninety nine, even if we get to something
(01:29:05):
that is ten times less valuable than Meta, five times
less valuable than TikTok and Instagram, that's still a thousand
x return on the type of investment. That you're putting
in there. And that's the part that people don' understand.
When you invest in any business, they tell you, like,
fifteen percent is an amazing return on an investment. And
I didn't raise capitalist way to give somebody fifteen percent back.
(01:29:27):
I didn't want somebody to put in four hundred dollars
right and give four hundred and forty dollars back. I'm
not doing it for that or four hundred and forty
five dollars back.
Speaker 6 (01:29:35):
That's not what I'm doing.
Speaker 17 (01:29:36):
I'm investing in I built a tech company so that
people could put four d dollars in, two hundred and
fifty dollars in, and together we build something that could
be worth hundreds of billions of dollars that's still far
below what other tech companies have, and exit that company,
and then at that time, you know, we're distributing generational
wealth to our people because it's tech. The fastest way
to real wealth right now currently is in the tech space,
(01:29:58):
and you can't save your way to wealth. I have
to invest. We don't think a lot about investing nowadays.
We're not really thinking about, you know, putting our money
into things that we can see a long return. They
will tell us to go through prize picks and gamble
and play the lottery and go to Vegas like that's
all that. All of that is the stuff that they
push on people of color. No one in these other
(01:30:18):
rooms people are getting together quietly and saying, hey, put
your money in this startup, put your money in that startup.
And they're not telling the average person to do this
kind of thing, because that's the lockout. They want the
access to the best deals, all the vcas and investors
want the access to the best opportunity to invest. And
so that's why this is important. This is breaking a
whole system down that a lot of people don't. I've
(01:30:40):
seen more people now use equity crowdfunding, especially people of
color since I started, and I was one of the
first people to really start doing is to have major
success at it. Now everybody does equity crowdfunding. I've seen
startups and I've introduced multiple people to equity crowdfunding because
it's a way to circumvent the racism, the discrimination, and
all the things that exist. And so that's why it's important.
Speaker 5 (01:31:00):
When when should investors reasonably expect the return and in
what form would that ROI look.
Speaker 6 (01:31:06):
Like so the ROI would be probably eight years.
Speaker 17 (01:31:09):
I already said, like, you know, six to eight years
is when you invest right and you see a return
like Prime example again like Uber had seed investment in
twenty ten and twenty nineteen they went public, So it
took nine years, but the people that invested in that
nine year period saw five thousand x return right on
those on that investment. And that's those are people that
put five thousand dollars in and so twenty four million
(01:31:31):
dollars come back, right. And so any early stage company
you would think between you know, six to nine years,
you would get a return on your investment. And then
how that happens is through a liquidity event. And the
liquidity event is somebody either buys the company, like somebody says, okay,
we're gonna buy fan base at a higher evaluation than
it was before, or we go public, which is still
selling the company. And that's when you know, you ring
(01:31:52):
the bell on the stock market and everybody can sell
their shares that day or and that's what money comes
in and people and buy shares, and so that's how
it works.
Speaker 5 (01:32:00):
Hold on now, and you said five to six years,
so you know, people are gonna be looking like, wait
a minute, I put money in back in twenty nineteen,
twenty twenty, so you sure you.
Speaker 17 (01:32:10):
When we didn't ra Yeah, we didn't really raise capital.
We didn't close our first round till twenty twenty one. Okay, right,
so that's what I'm saying. We didn't close our first
round till twenty twenty one and again, but again, and
also those are people that get like VC dollars, Charlottege,
That's what I'm saying, Like this is people don't understand
how incredibly hard this is. But I love it because
it's the It's the biggest challenge of my life and
(01:32:32):
we're being successful at it and will continue to be successful.
But man, like this is like you know, this is
this is this is an amazing a journey in process
for me. But yeah, this is also it's also sation.
Speaker 4 (01:32:44):
It's also teaching because we talk about generational wealth and
it talks about some of the times where people don't
understand because we've never been taught. It's not like we've
had millions and millions of dollars passed down from generations
like you know, other backgrounds have. So it's also a
teaching method, right, So you're teaching people what it means
to crowdsource and to get money and to put money
down and how much money you can get back. So
(01:33:05):
it's also a matter of teaching, So answering the question
shouldn't be really a problem because you're teaching a generation
that might not know.
Speaker 9 (01:33:11):
No.
Speaker 17 (01:33:11):
Absolutely, That's why I consistently have you know, told other
people to actually invest right, and I mean other people
to use equity crowdfunding. I've helped like five or six
other companies raised through equity crowdfunding and told them about
equity crowdfunding. And that's a really good thing because it's
an alternative to black people going to banks, an alternative
for black people trying to get loans and trying to
(01:33:33):
ask venture you know, go for venture dollars and angel investing,
where those deals to be predatory. A lot of what
I do is disruptive because of what I knew coming
from the music business, right, So I knew that I
had to create two classes of stock and make sure
that no one else has voting shares because that's when
people try to force you out of your company, right.
(01:33:54):
And I knew that the deals that you get from
angel investors are some times predatory. So somebody gives me
two hundred thousand dollars to invest in fan base when
I first had the idea, They get twenty percent of
the company, and I put my own two hundred thousand
dollars in it, so I saved that twenty percent. So
those are the things that most people don't know because
a lot of my friends that are founders got forced
(01:34:15):
out of their companies. They got taken advantage of, they
got in bad deals that don't allow them to raise
capital from other people.
Speaker 6 (01:34:21):
So it's real.
Speaker 17 (01:34:22):
It's a dirty game. It's not as dirty as the
music business. But for me, it's something that I was very,
very familiar with because I know, you know a lot
of founders just coming with a great idea and then
they get some guys in there like yeah, here's half
a million dollars, but I want a board seat and
X Y Z and all that kind of stuff. You
get voted out of the company. As Stacey Sparks, I
don't know if you've ever seen Movie Pass, but the
(01:34:42):
guys that in been in Movie Pass for two black guys,
they took in capital, they had board seats. TheInk got
voted out of their own company. The guys ran up
a huge bill on movie Pass and destroyed the whole
companies and white dudes. And that's what I'm saying, is like,
that's what happens when when we try to build our businesses.
It's very, very predatory, but it's gonna take it's gonna
be hard, it's gonna take longer, but it's gonna be
well worth it because people can follow my blueprint and
(01:35:04):
do exactly what I did. And I'm paving that way
so that you know, you can own your company, not
get voted out, have as much equity as you possibly
can to give yourself more, the ability to raise more capital.
Speaker 6 (01:35:14):
All that stuff is important.
Speaker 2 (01:35:15):
How they invest it.
Speaker 17 (01:35:17):
They go to start Engine dot com slash fan base
to invest that's a you know, start engine dot com
slash fan base to invest in Minimus three hundred nine
nine dollars. You get sixty shares of stock and fan base,
and you will own the infrastructure of social media and
micro dramas in the future.
Speaker 2 (01:35:32):
All right, well, thank you, Isaacas. The third regulation and
it's the breakfast.
Speaker 6 (01:35:37):
Good morning. Do you feel me up? Swallow me up?
Speaker 5 (01:35:40):
Whoa, he didn't say that, crazy he didn't say that.
Speaker 2 (01:35:43):
I don't know what's going on with you.
Speaker 9 (01:35:44):
No know.
Speaker 5 (01:35:44):
I'll be thinking about the video where Chris Brown was
mocking Mission TDJS.
Speaker 2 (01:35:48):
Remember have you ever been swazed up?
Speaker 15 (01:35:52):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:35:52):
I swallowed up? Can you swallow me up? All right,
let's get to the latest. Long becoming great fast. She
gets them somebody that knows, somebody detail.
Speaker 8 (01:36:05):
I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 2 (01:36:07):
And she'd be having the latest on you.
Speaker 6 (01:36:11):
The latest with Lauren La Rosa.
Speaker 5 (01:36:13):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you
have a little bit of everything on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 8 (01:36:22):
Yes, guys, good morning. So we have another update.
Speaker 18 (01:36:25):
I know we've been following this case Rob Reiner and
his wife Michelle Reiner, who were killed in their home
over the weekend, allegedly by their son, Nick, So yesterday,
the LA District Attorney Nathan Holchem announced that they formally
filed charges against Nick Reiner. The charges are two counts
two counts of first degree murder for the death of
(01:36:47):
his parents. Let's take a listen to the DA talking
about Nick today.
Speaker 7 (01:36:50):
I'm here to announce that our office will be filing
charges against Nick Reiner, who was accused of killing his parents,
actor director Rob Reiner and Fatalugrapher producer Michelle Singer Reiner.
These charges will be two counts of first degree murder
with a special circumstance of multiple murders. He also fasts
(01:37:11):
a special allegation that he personally used a dangerous and
deadly weapon, that being a knife. These charges carry a
maximum sentence of life in prison without the possibility parole
or the death penalty. No decision at this point has
been made with respect to the death penalty. We have
requested and currently Nick Reiner is being held without bailoud
(01:37:37):
he has been alleged one of these special allegations is
that the murder was committed with a deadly weapon or
a knife.
Speaker 5 (01:37:44):
As to where and how.
Speaker 7 (01:37:46):
The weapon will be was located or will be located,
that will actually be evidence while presenting court.
Speaker 2 (01:37:53):
I pray he had no access to his parents' money.
Speaker 5 (01:37:56):
I pray that they didn't leave him anything in their will,
because if he's able to use his parents' resources to
fight his case, that would just feel wrong.
Speaker 2 (01:38:05):
Yes, and to leave.
Speaker 5 (01:38:06):
Something in your will to somebody who actually took your life, Yeah,
I hope.
Speaker 4 (01:38:10):
He gets none of that. I hope he gets no
access to that. I hope he can't use that money
to pay lawyers.
Speaker 2 (01:38:15):
I hope not.
Speaker 5 (01:38:15):
I went out legally how that works if I you
don't expect to get taken out by your own children, right,
you leave them stuff and they will I wanted to
how that worked.
Speaker 18 (01:38:24):
I'm not for sure, but I know yesterday his attorney
who is a powerhouse attorney. And when I saw that,
because this is the same attorney that just got Karen
Reid off as well. She was going through a case
about man. So Karen Reid is a woman who they
alleged had like backed up, she was driving under the
influence of something, and that she had backed up and
(01:38:44):
hit a man who was a police officer with her
car and left him for basically for dead. And he
was able to get her off of basically all of
the serious charges in that case. But so he showed
up to court yesterday on Nick's behalf. And he's a
powerhouse attorney that's like literally if you look him up,
like he's known as like a big attorneys, though I'm
assuming he's pretty expensive. But yesterday Nick Reiner was not
(01:39:05):
in court because he didn't pass like a medical clearance.
And remember I told you guys that I reached out
when the whole suicide stuff was mentioned to see if
this was procedural or if something was said.
Speaker 2 (01:39:17):
Uh.
Speaker 18 (01:39:17):
And yesterday Alan Jackson, who is the attorney that I'm
talking about for Nick Reiner, said that the fact that
he didn't pass the medical clearance or get the medical
clearance done before Courton was able to not able to
come to court was something that was procedural. And he
says that they're going to be back every day until
that clearance or whatever is needed because Nick is supposed
to make an appearance in court.
Speaker 6 (01:39:36):
So gotcha.
Speaker 2 (01:39:36):
I wonder what go through a lawyer's mind when you
have to take a case like this, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 7 (01:39:42):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (01:39:42):
Yeah, I mean such a heinous case like this, Like, yeah,
what are you trying to do? I mean, I'm sure
that movie's advocate, remember I love Devil.
Speaker 6 (01:39:52):
For some movie.
Speaker 4 (01:39:52):
I'm sure it's publicity. I'm sure it's press, but I
wouldn't want this type of press. Yeah, I mean, but
if he I said money, duh, I know that, but damn.
Speaker 5 (01:40:02):
I'm yeah.
Speaker 18 (01:40:03):
I mean, but if he's used to doing cases like this,
it's just something that he takes on because I know
that Karen read case was a big deal, Like I
remember seeing headlines about it, you know what I mean.
So I don't know, but Nick is still being held
at men Centrul Jail in LA and we'll just you know,
keep I guess, bring you guys updates on what happens
and when it happens. Now, switching gears a big so
(01:40:26):
Kai s to not celebrating his birthday and he posted
a video. You guys remember back at the Streamer Awards,
he got on stage and he talked about some of
the mental health things that he's been battling in just
different new ventures he wants to try and explore. So
he posted a video and celebration of his birthday kind
of explaining further. Let's take a listen.

A few days ago, I spread awareness on mental health
and how important it is to take care of yourself.
And honestly, for the past few months, I've been struggling
with mental health out of self doubt and fright of
pursuing goals that I really.
Speaker 5 (01:40:54):
Want to achieve.

And the reason I really been in my head is
because I just wanted to do more. I've gained to
realize that I'm a true creator and I'm very passionate
about creating, and I have other goals and things that
I just want to achieve. I would love to show
you guys what I've been working on for the past
few months through my more personal page, which is casey
three Hidden. I just want to let you guys know
that sometimes it is important to take care of your
(01:41:17):
mental health. And honestly, it's been getting better, but out
of frustration and fear, I've just been in my head
for some reason. I never had this feeling before, But
I truly want to create. And I don't know if
I'm getting mature or I'm just looking things at a
broad point of view, but I am so passionate about
creating in general, and I'm excited to show you guys
what's going on.

Speaker 7 (05:11):
Me?
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Me? Good morning?
Speaker 8 (05:12):
Me?
Speaker 9 (05:12):
Me, good morning, Envy Charlotagne, Jef's how y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Good?
Speaker 9 (05:17):
Good morning, I'll say it. So we started this morning
with a rare behind the scenes look at the Trump
White House. So in a new Vanity Fair profile Chief
of Staff Susie Wilds, she is offering an unfiltered look
at the president, his inner circle, and the decisions driving
his second term. So the interviews they were conducted for
the first eleven months of Trump's second term, and the
(05:39):
profile Wiles she starts with the president and then she
moves through his inner circle in some of the administration's
most consequential decisions. Now, while she describes President Trump as
having what she calls an alcoholic personality, not because he drinks,
but because Trump operates with a belief that there's nothing
he can't do. And on the Jeffrey Epstein files, Wilds
(05:59):
said Attorney General Pam Bondi she quote completely whiffed the rollout,
under estimating how much of Trump's base would care about
the documents and how badly the messaging would Land. She
also acknowledged that Trump's name appears in the Epstein related records,
saying he was on the flight manifest and he had
been on Epstein's plane, but insists there is no evidence
(06:21):
tying him to any wrongdoing. And as for Elon Musk,
Whiles she called the billionaire quote an odd, odd duck.
She says he's difficult to manage and refer to him
as an avowed ketemine user. She also strongly disagreed with
how Musk dismantled major parts of the federal government, and
when it comes to tariffs, she described those as thinking
(06:42):
out loud and on Venezuela, she says President Trump wants
to quote keep blowing up boats into madul CRY's uncle.
Now during this interview, Yes, during this interview, but now
Whiles she's now pushing back claiming that Trump is on
a political retribution to Oh, she's pushing back on the
fact that Trump is people are claiming that Trump is
(07:03):
on a political retribution tour. But she did carve out
one exception, saying that a New York Attorney General, Letitia James,
she might be the one retribution, pointing to that roughly
five hundred million dollars civil lawsuit that James won against Trump. Now,
after this profile was published, Wilds accused Vanity Fair of
taking her comments out of context and portraying the administration
(07:24):
as chaotic. But the journalists behind this story, Chris Whipple,
he is standing by his reporting, noting that the interviews
they were recorded over eleven months and that the audio
there are audio recordings that exist that will back up
each one of these quotes. In the White House, they
quickly rallied behind Wild's and of course they are calling
this fake news. Let's hear what Caroline Levitt and JD.
(07:47):
Vance had to say about this Vanity Fair article.
Speaker 10 (07:51):
This is, unfortunately another example of disingenuous reporting where you
have a reporter who took the chief of staff's work
wildly out of context, did not include the context those
conversations were had within. And then further, I think the
most egregious part of this article was the bias of
omission that was clearly present. And we see a lot
(08:12):
of this when dealing with the media every day. You know,
many people in this building spoke with that reporter in
those comments were never included in the story, probably because
it didn't push this false narrative of chaos and confusion
that the reporter was clearly trying to push. Sometimes I
am a conspiracy theorist, but I only believe in the
conspiracy theories that are true.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Susie and I have joked in private and in public
about that for a long time.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
You bet I have those audio clips already because the
Trump administration will sue and I would like to handle
context as well. They've already had to play.
Speaker 9 (08:46):
I think it was a New York Post who they
had to play an audio clip for because someone said
I think it was a while she said something didn't happen.
I think she called she said that Elon Musk was microdosing.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
She said that he did not say that.
Speaker 9 (08:58):
The New York Times they called the reporter. The reporter
played that audio clip, and that is in fact what
she said.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Well, she seems like a very honest chief of staff.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
So my question is why is she in the Trump
administration with that type of honesty?
Speaker 8 (09:12):
Good question.
Speaker 9 (09:13):
Well, it's not just those quotes that are drawing attention.
I know, you guys saw those those photos, those blow
those blurred not they're not even blurred, they're just blown
up really big on those.
Speaker 8 (09:23):
Extreme close ups.
Speaker 9 (09:24):
They're sparking a lot of talk online with viewers calling
those images everything from jarring to a jump scare. But
the photograph or the photographer who took those portraits, he
said that they weren't meant to embarrass anyone, but to
just strip away the performance of politics and show something
even more real. So those photos are making their way
on social media and actually trending this morning, so we
(09:45):
haven't seen them.
Speaker 8 (09:46):
Take a look.
Speaker 9 (09:48):
And turning down to Capitol Hill, where in action on
healthcare could soon mean higher costs for millions of Americans.
So Speaker Mike Johnson, he says Republicans will not allow
a vote to extend the enhance Obamacare substant that are
set to expire at the end of the year, despite
the pressure from moderates who wanted to go on the
record that Johnson said about a dozen Republicans in competitive
(10:08):
districts they push for a vote, arguing it would help
lower costs for their constituents, but leadership they could not
come to an agreement. But the House is still expected
to vote today on a broader Republican healthcare bill, but
it does not include those acaight subsidies. So that means
that those premiums in about fifteen days will expire if
Congress does nothing. And just on a quick note on
(10:30):
a separate issue, President Trump, he is expected to address
the nation tonight at nine pm at the White House,
delivering a live primetime speech and expected to touch on
issues from border security, the economy, and what's ahead in
the coming year. So we will watch that and report
on that tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
You about to lie to y'all and tell y'all that
y'all not feeling everything, that y'all feeling happy holidays?

a curiosity part one of the biggest podcasts in the world.
Stuff you missed in history class, stuff to blow your mind.
Three and out with John made I'm gonna say his
name wrong, Medcliffe.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
Listen as a person who loves podcasting, who's been watching
podcasting of all from the beginning. It's just incredible to
see the business of podcasting expanding.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
This one.
Speaker 14 (22:57):
Yeah, that's dope. No, because, to be honest, back when
it first thought, I never thought. I never saw this
for podcasting really, so yeah, no, not Netflix and all this, No,
because TV is.
Speaker 8 (23:08):
Going out the window, so you got to put stuff somewhere.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
I miss one going out the window.
Speaker 8 (23:13):
People don't sit down and watch cable TV, but they
used to. They watch streaming, They watch.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Netflix, but it's still TV.
Speaker 8 (23:18):
Yeah, y'all know what I mean.
Speaker 18 (23:20):
Like traditional cable television is a lot different nowadays.
Speaker 5 (23:23):
Cable television has gone the way of the streaming service exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 18 (23:27):
I missed one too. I wanted to mention this one,
bird Bones. It's a history and true crime podcast with
join on is Kate Winkler.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I think it's beautiful.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
You know. You know, back in the day they said
if you build it, they will come. Nowadays you have
to meet people where they are. And you know, Netflix
has over three hundred million page subscribers and they are
in one hundred and ninety million countries. So yes, we
will be meeting those people where they are. Let me
not say week, but people will be meeting those people
where they are. And I look forward to watching some
of those podcasts and other languages. That's gonna be hilarious. Oh,
(23:55):
that'll be.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Funny watching the Breakfast Club and other languages too. But
I just want to club in Spanish. In Spanish. Maybe, yes,
I am.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
I'm gonna be able to do that. It's gonna be done.
But you know, I just want to say I just
love to see what Netflix is done. Remember Netflix just
started as that bread box outside of the store.
Speaker 5 (24:14):
Dollars.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
Yeah, you could go get these movies and blockbusters, and
how they grew to where they're at now is just crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
It's just amazing that vision of Netflix.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
This is so why audio is the best form of
entertainment too, because you can take audio and do so
many things with it, you know what I mean, whether
it's radio podcast and you can listen to it first
and you can record it for a visual and then
you can watch it and you can you know, to
do the audio scripted content. You could take that content
and just you know, it can turn into so many
different things documentaries, TV film.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
I guess is yes, this is amazing, beautiful Netflix good morning,
good morning.
Speaker 18 (24:48):
But one of the questions though, is for so for
the podcast if things are going off of YouTube, I'm
told that the exclusive content will be on Netflix.
Speaker 5 (24:57):
But anybody talking about none of this, Yeah, somebody just
did that.
Speaker 8 (24:59):
I talking. I made sure that, I said, make sure
I say it.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
She has sources.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
You don't know what is going on.
Speaker 8 (25:05):
Who knows because people have questions about what that means
where the content will be.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Nobody knows nothing, they don't and then I will be
censored like like.
Speaker 8 (25:13):
I don't know that I didn't. I wasn't told that line,
but I won't say that.
Speaker 5 (25:17):
On the radio. But no, no, was Netflix is still
the foundation man.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Audio Still she.
Speaker 8 (25:23):
Means like as if you were headed, like like you
know what I'm saying, like.
Speaker 5 (25:27):
Exactly what that's why.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
That's all like, well, I will be in the radio, pun,
I will see a special somewhere because anyway I can.

Speaker 5 (28:25):
He ain't pick up.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
God damn it.
Speaker 8 (28:27):
Well he caught me and we cleared up some things
about his ass. So we're gonna talk about it.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
Yes, imagine it's translated in another language.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
Is not gonna do it next hour, next hour will
be talking about ray J's ass. Coming up next we
got Front Page News and then Tamar Braxton will be
joining us.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
My girl, it's the Breakfast Club on morning everybody, It's
d J n V. Just hilarious, charlamage the guy. We
all to breakfast club.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
Let's get back to some front Page News now expanses
up with sports.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
Yesterday.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
Last night, the New York Knicks won the NBA Cup.
They beat this San Antonio Spurs one twenty four, one
to thirteen. Jaylor Brunton was the MVP twenty five points,
eight assists and four rebounds. Also, we got a salute
to Terrence Crawford and now see himself retiring. He's thirty
eight years old. He has a record of forty two
and zero. So congratulations, said Terrence crawfid.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
Terrence Craft is one of those fighters that you really
gonna miss when he's gone. Like you know what I'm saying,
because I think sometimes when we live in when we
live within the greatness, like we watch it, you kind
of tend to take it for granted, and then when
it's over, that's when everybody starts doing their retrospective.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Like, ah, he really was that dude.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
Yeah, the sad thing about Arry I don't want to
see the sad thing about Terrence Crawford. But the sad
thing about Terrence Crawford is for a lot of casual
boxer fans, they just started hearing his name a couple
of years ago, you know, which is sad. But he
didn't really I feel, get the light from the casual
boxer fans. They just started diving into his career. He
went out on top, you know, beating Canelo Alvarez, you
know on Netflix. Can't get much bigger than that.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
You're right, what's that mean mean?
Speaker 9 (30:00):
Good morning, Envy, Josh Lamage, how y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 2 (30:02):
That's how we favored How are you mean me?
Speaker 9 (30:04):
Good morning? So we started this hour with the latest
on the manhunt following that deadly shooting at Brown University.
Speaker 8 (30:10):
As investigators they move into day five with no suspect
in custody.
Speaker 9 (30:14):
Now, authorities in Providence say they are still searching for
the person responsible for the attack that killed two students
and injured nine others inside the engineering building on campus
on Saturday afternoon. Now, investigators they release new enhanced images
and video Tuesday yesterday, and they're asking the public to
look closely, not just at the person's face, but how
(30:35):
they move and in hopes that someone may recognize this individual.
Let's listen to what investigators said during that briefing yesterday.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
We believe that he was actually incason out this area
to commit to Cristice. No, if that's that criminals do
you want to focus on the body movements, the way
the person moved their arms.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
The body posture, the way they carry their way.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
I think those are the important movement patterns that may
help you identify this individual, which is extremely important.
Speaker 9 (31:06):
Well, police are really leaning on the public and the
tips to help find this individual. They say that that
person of interest who was detained earlier in investigation, they
have now been cleared. But so security analysts say that
that focus early on that individual may have set the
investigation back by as much as a day.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
Now.
Speaker 9 (31:24):
Authorities believe the shooter spent more than five hours in
the area before opening fire, possibly casing that location, then
disappeared into the surrounding neighborhoods when camera footage Where camera
footage is limited to investigators, They are working through hundreds
of tips, reviewing new video, and collecting DNA samples from
potential leads, suggesting they may have physical evidence, but no
(31:46):
match yet in the national database. One victim remains in
critical condition this morning, while others are recovering and of
course classes and exams they remain canceled.
Speaker 5 (31:57):
I honestly be feeling like with all this technology that
we have today, they already know who the person is.
I just think that they, for whatever reason, they just
take their time going to get them. I think, just
to see what else he is doing, to see if
that first individual may be connected to others, Because, like
I said, with all the technology we have today and
everything on being undersurveillance, they know who this guy is already.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
I really truly believe that.
Speaker 9 (32:17):
Yeah, And I think because they made a mistake the
first time around that they're being extra cautious this time
around before they give you a lot of information to
the public on what they do know.
Speaker 8 (32:26):
We'll continue to watch that.
Speaker 9 (32:27):
So if you're flying anywhere in the US, here's an
important update involving airport security and Immigration Enforcement now. According
to The New York Times, TSA is now sharing passenger
lists with Immigration and Customs Enforcement several times a week.
So that means CSA is giving ICE the name of
people expected to pass through US airports.
Speaker 8 (32:47):
ICE then checks.
Speaker 9 (32:47):
Those names against its database and against the people it
believes are subject to deportation, so if there's a match,
agents can be sent to the airport to detain that person.
TSA and ICE, they are both part of Homeland Security,
and it's unclear how many people have been arrested because
of this information sharing, but the paper said that it
reviewed documents showing at least one case that tied directly
(33:10):
to the program. So back in November, a college student
headed home to Texas to see your family for Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving,
she was arrested at the airport in Boston and she
was deported just two days later. And now, according to
her family, she was brought to the US from Honduras
when she was seven years old, and they say that
she did not know that she was under a deportation order.
Speaker 8 (33:31):
And as people get.
Speaker 9 (33:31):
Ready to travel for the holidays, it is a reminder
that routine domestic air travel is being used as an
immigration enforcement checkpoint. That means simply boarding your plane inside
the US can now trigger immigration enforcement.
Speaker 5 (33:45):
Dam I didn't even know you get deportation orders.
Speaker 8 (33:49):
Yeah that's great.
Speaker 9 (33:50):
Yeah, well to that point, civil rights advocates say this
raises concerns about transparency and due process. So whether people
really understand the risk of traveling, especially you know, people
who have lived here in the US for years, they
may not even realize that their their immigration status is
unresolved and so there is no deportation order. Really, it's
like your name comes up and they come get you.
Speaker 8 (34:12):
Really, that's what's happening.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
That's crazy.
Speaker 8 (34:15):
Just yo, go ahead, listen because got a call last week, right,
I'm like, I swear from Ice, right, so.
Speaker 5 (34:25):
Listen, shut up. So he called me.
Speaker 14 (34:27):
He was like, yeah, you funny, And I'm like, what
are you talking about? He was like, yeah, all right,
you try to you know, the ice ice joke ain't funny,
and I'm like no. He was like, yo, they're calling
people like they're calling people.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
They just got to make sure make sure nothing even if.
Speaker 8 (34:42):
Somebody is playing on the phone.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
He thought it was me.
Speaker 8 (34:44):
It ain't me.
Speaker 5 (34:45):
They got to make sure.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Be careful if y'all doing any traveler with the holidays.
Speaker 17 (34:50):
OK.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
So all I'm saying, all right, especially what you're in law, just.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
Be careful, all right, y'all.
Speaker 9 (34:56):
Switching gears, would you guys watch Instagram reels on television
or would you just stick to watching them on your phones?
Speaker 14 (35:02):
You may if you watching TV and they already come up.
I mean it's like whatever phone is TV TV is
the phone.
Speaker 9 (35:08):
Now, well that's a good point because Instagram is now
testing a new Instagram for TV app. It's officially bringing
reels to your television screen. So the test is rolling
out on Amazon fireTV devices, letting users who watch those
short term, short form videos on much larger screens. You
can stay at home. You can watch it straight from
(35:28):
your couch and set up your phone. So the idea
is to take those same brills that you already scrow
th role on your phone and hook them up to
your TV. But Instagram, they are trying to compete with
TikTok and YouTube now, so the videos they won't be
reformatted for your television. They'll still play vertically, just on
a much larger screen. They'll be three minutes or less.
(35:49):
And families they can link up to five Instagram accounts
to that one TV shared profile. Viewers can browse reels
by interest based so if you're into sports, music, travel,
and you can make it less about endless scrolling and
more about what you actually want to watch. So for now,
Instagram says the focus is on making the experience feel natural,
so they're not adding ads just yet, but it sounds
(36:11):
like if this is a hit that they will start
adding ads to yep, to your scrolling. And the expansion,
they said they plan to expand to other platforms, not
just Amazon Amazons Stick, but that is expected later and
they have not given a timeline on when they expect that.
And lastly, have you guys bought your Powerball tickets yet?
Speaker 8 (36:33):
I'm about you now. I hate charlamage. Have you talking
about it all the time? I'm about to start about
to pull it out of his wallet.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
His mind from Monday, I got to buy mine for
the day, but this mine. I want to get mine,
So you've got to day.
Speaker 5 (36:47):
Saturday.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
And how much is it?
Speaker 8 (36:51):
It's two dollars, it's two dollars.
Speaker 9 (36:53):
There was no winter on Monday, so that jackpot is
jumped to one point two five billion dollars.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
I need that, okay.
Speaker 9 (37:00):
Yes, it is the sixth largest jackpot ever, you guys.
And the cash option is about five hundred and seventy
two million dollars Jesus Christ.
Speaker 8 (37:08):
And how much of that if you win? How much
of that do you got to pay for?
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Five seventy two minus taxes? So Texas half.
Speaker 9 (37:16):
Damn yep, So you better get your ticket tonight. The
drawing is tonight and we'll see if there is a winner.
The odds are like one in two hundred and ninety
two million something like that. Yeah, but you never know,
you know, could be could be the lucky winner. So
we'll see if there is a winner tomorrow.
Speaker 8 (37:34):
And that is it, y'all.

Speaker 4 (37:45):
Thanks me, thank you all right, when we come back,
Tamot Braxton will be joining us.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
It don't go anywhere. It's the breakfast club.
Speaker 4 (37:52):
Good Morning Morning, Everybody's DJ Envy just hilarious, Chelamaine to
gud We are the breakfast Club Low on the roses
here as well.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Got a special guest in the buildings.
Speaker 4 (38:01):
Indeed, a new album, Heartbreak, Heartbreak Retrograde is out right now,
ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 2 (38:06):
Tamar Braxton, welcome.
Speaker 5 (38:08):
Back, Hey friends, Look good kids, kids.
Speaker 8 (38:24):
I want great. It is great. Yeah, he's on break
and so you know I can't even reach him.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
You got a lot going on new albums. I'm going positive.
This is great retrograde. Yes, what does retrograde mean to you?
Speaker 8 (38:39):
Like emotionally, well, you know, like mercury retrograde.
Speaker 20 (38:43):
And so it's like a long period of time where
things are just like not adding up, not making sense,
where you just like feel like you're not yourself. And
I chose to take it as something that is positive
instead of a negative. This is the time where I
can evolve, I can be myself and figure out things
that will best suit me in the future. And I
(39:05):
feel like I want to say this. You know, heartbag
retrograde was born here. Really the less conversation that we
had about cheating. So Heartbreak Retrograde is about a woman
who cheats on her spouse and breaks her own heart
by breaking his heart.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Cause you talked about it that accent.
Speaker 5 (39:27):
You heard about it. Yeah, So are these old wounds resurfacing?
Are you finally releasing it?
Speaker 20 (39:32):
I'm releasing it, you know. And I couldn't figure out. Remember,
I was still feeling bad about it.
Speaker 8 (39:37):
I couldn't talk about it. I couldn't figure out how
to break it.
Speaker 20 (39:42):
And you know, putting together this project along with the
movie was very therapeutic for me, and so I'm just
so grateful about it.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
Do you have a call that accent and have that conversation?
How did that go? Well?
Speaker 20 (39:55):
Okay, So we went out to lunch and I explained
to him that this was about that portion of the
relationship and he appreciated that.
Speaker 8 (40:06):
But there were some things about the movie that he
didn't like.
Speaker 5 (40:09):
So, you know, what's so good about this?
Speaker 6 (40:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (40:11):
You know, twenty twenty five is the Year of the Snake,
So we got like what fourteen days left to you know,
shed old habits and embrace personal growth, just like a
shape a snake.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
SHDD you skin.
Speaker 5 (40:23):
Yes, So this album you know me it he'll.
Speaker 8 (40:26):
Me, and I believe like it's spent a lot of
people like, oh my god.
Speaker 20 (40:28):
I've listened to it, and I feel like this is
the medicine that I needed to get over my heartbreak retrograde.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Wow, it wasn't he like you said he didn't like
parts of it? What didn't he like?
Speaker 20 (40:38):
I think that it was a lot of ego, you
know what I mean, because it was based on the
true story. It wasn't everything that happened right, and so
he was just you know, I think it's hard to
see your ex or somebody that you once cared about
or care about and like those positions with someone else,
because I'm sure it brought him back to that moment.
Speaker 4 (40:57):
Didnite feelings when y'all had that dinner, Did y'all did
anything like sparks pop off or say let's try this
again since we're being so open or not.
Speaker 8 (41:06):
I don't think that person is healed in that capacity
for that well, not necessarily. It's a long story.
Speaker 20 (41:13):
I tell y'all off camera, Okay, that conversation men do exactly,
And I think it's.
Speaker 8 (41:21):
Time to have that conversation. I think we need to
normalize that it's both of us.
Speaker 20 (41:24):
That's not just men, you know, it's it's women too,
because just like the same reasons why you know a
man will cheat is because you know things are not
all the way together at home, or things all the
way together with themselves. It's the same thing women go
through the same thing.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
Don't cheat, explain women.
Speaker 8 (41:45):
Black men don't cheat? What did they do? It's another
word for it must.
Speaker 2 (41:48):
No old black men, comma don't cheat. Like I don't
want black men to cheat.
Speaker 18 (41:51):
We don't want black men to cheat. However, thank you well, Tamar.
I was wondering if the ex you were referring to
is in the movie.
Speaker 5 (41:58):
You tried it?
Speaker 8 (41:58):
No, okay, I just wondering because absolutely all right, y'all,
y'all don't believe that I was talking.
Speaker 20 (42:06):
About that because want to bring this up because I
know y'all can't wait. But let's just talk about common sense.
And first of all, we've been knowing each other a
long time. Let's can we stop that can be dead
that now, okay, because I'm just gonna I'm just gonna
be honest about that. Has never been a man who
has experienced Tamar, who didn't want to marry me.
Speaker 8 (42:26):
And so if that was the case, he would be
over here. Everybody cliar now let's.
Speaker 2 (42:31):
Move on, get them together?
Speaker 15 (42:33):
What do.
Speaker 6 (42:36):
Lauren?
Speaker 8 (42:36):
I'm like, who I was talking about Vince because he's
in the.
Speaker 2 (42:42):
Relationship.
Speaker 8 (42:44):
Yeah he is, he is.
Speaker 18 (42:45):
But I didn't know if The reason why I asked
that is because because he's in the your visual giving
you relationship advice and just people seeing him on screen again,
we always just wonder, you know, where the relationship is,
like what that looks like.
Speaker 8 (42:56):
So I didn't know if that was the person you
had to sit down. That's mad, that's what that stops.
Speaker 5 (43:04):
I saw.
Speaker 8 (43:06):
The song said to that point, you're in a good place.
He's a family member, and that's that.
Speaker 20 (43:11):
On that you watched the video with Ben, I saw
him hand taking pictures, you know, Vince being the pictures.
Speaker 5 (43:20):
Was they was killing Vince was sitting in the background
there like they're going, Vince back there with his mouth over.
Speaker 8 (43:28):
So we love it.
Speaker 5 (43:29):
With this album about reliving heartbreak or reclaiming your power.
Speaker 20 (43:32):
From it, it was about taking accountability, you know, and
being responsible for someone's hurt that I caused.
Speaker 8 (43:39):
And like I said, when I was here. I felt
really bad.
Speaker 20 (43:43):
That's really when it like zoned in on me, like, wow,
I really did hurt a person that bad, and I'm
you know, I'm really sorry for that. And I hope
that that person doesn't take that into you know, their future.
I hope it doesn't stifle their growth and like really
truly finding love.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
Was he surprised when you called to have dinner and
talk about.
Speaker 4 (43:58):
It because a lot of times they say women don't apologize,
So was he shocked and surprise?
Speaker 5 (44:02):
M I don't.
Speaker 8 (44:04):
I don't know, I can't. I don't know if I
can answer that. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (44:07):
I also don't think men cheap because you said that earlier.
But I don't think men cheap because there's something.
Speaker 2 (44:10):
Wrong at home. I do.
Speaker 8 (44:13):
I think there's something that's missing.
Speaker 2 (44:14):
I think it's something missing within you as a day.
Speaker 20 (44:17):
Do you think so you think it's all about the man.
Has nothing to do with the woman, there's nothing to
do with the connection with another person.
Speaker 4 (44:22):
I think every situation is different. But I think a
lot of times man trying to feed his ego, you
know what I mean? And I think that's the main
I think men need to grow up at times. And
I don't think they've got to the place where they
understand what the word love really means and what it
really is.
Speaker 5 (44:34):
Because you don't really love yourself correct and it's like,
you know, it's like pouring water into a cup that
ain't got no bottom. So you just constantly think he's feeling,
it's feeling, it's feeling, and it's not. That's why most
of the time you feel very empty after you, you know, cheat.
Speaker 8 (44:46):
But what if you can't reach that other person, what
if you can't reach your partner.
Speaker 2 (44:50):
That's a different circumstance.
Speaker 5 (44:51):
I'm not saying that there can't be times when you
know it's problems at home, but it's really the guy, Well,
I learned something.
Speaker 8 (44:58):
To that I didn't know that.
Speaker 18 (44:59):
Okay, did you feel like on the other side, like
did you feel like it was something missing or did
you like, was there like some self searching you had
to do when you decided some.
Speaker 20 (45:09):
Healing that I needed to address. And also I was
just really confused. And then, if I'm being honest, I
just wasn't ready.
Speaker 8 (45:23):
I just wasn't ready.
Speaker 5 (45:24):
Was there any moments while you was recording this album
where you had to stop because it was too real.
Speaker 8 (45:28):
Yeah, a lot, and and and.
Speaker 20 (45:30):
The film too, because it just brought back a lot,
like I'm gonna take you one part that was really
really real.
Speaker 8 (45:36):
Did he shifted once again? You shifted my uterus? That
is what he read. Oh that was a real text.
That was you got to explained to for the people,
so you know what the.
Speaker 4 (45:45):
Needs he having flashbacks on again again. I'll just say that,
like that's such a hard, calmed down.
Speaker 5 (46:00):
I'm just saying you already cheated him.
Speaker 13 (46:02):
I know.
Speaker 20 (46:04):
When a woman like really understands and falls into her
masculine energy, we become you all.
Speaker 8 (46:11):
And that's what that text was. I was just basically
macin the way.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
I've never told a woman that.
Speaker 5 (46:24):
Imagine you imagine a man cheated on you and then
told you that the woman he cheated with.
Speaker 8 (46:29):
Oh okay, is that equivalent.
Speaker 2 (46:35):
I'm just trying to hurt you because.
Speaker 18 (46:38):
No, no, no, he went through my phone and read that,
And did you clear that with the person that you
actually your ex before you put that in the visual?
Speaker 8 (46:45):
Because that I know that still hurts and he had
to watch it.
Speaker 20 (46:47):
Yeah, but you know, I only have to address it
with honesty. You can't have accountability without honesty.
Speaker 8 (46:53):
I had to have honesty.
Speaker 2 (46:55):
That's it.
Speaker 8 (46:57):
That's it. I had to address what I know that
hurt you.
Speaker 2 (47:02):
That's different. Damn. I wish we could get a PPL.
Speaker 8 (47:17):
Now though, So okay.
Speaker 18 (47:25):
The way that the album lines up, in a way
the visual goes, it tells the story, right because in
the beginning, it's like you're happy. It's like you're y'all
are just discovering each other when you know, you know
it is the first song individual writing, when you know
you know about your ex. What is it that you
discovered you lost from that point to the point where
you get to like, you know, uh, letter to allo man,
(47:48):
what you mean like what what changed in your relationship?
Like at that point of what changing you where you
were like, okay, I just was so sure about this
and then it went from so short to like you
mess somebody else and you just completely forgot about what
you were sure.
Speaker 8 (48:00):
I didn't meet nobody else.
Speaker 20 (48:02):
I basically revisited something that I was as completely over.
And if I'm being honest, I was honest with that
person about that. When we first started dating, you know,
we were still talking, but we wasn't We were still platonic,
but I still.
Speaker 8 (48:16):
Had feelings and I told that person else for the
uterus shifting you or something else. Yeah, I would devastated.
Speaker 18 (48:30):
Keep explain, what's that conversation like then, Like when y'all
first meet up and you're like, Okay, I want you
to know I still got feelings from my ex.
Speaker 20 (48:39):
Yeah, but I never thought that I would act on them.
I just thought that there were feelings that would eventually
go away. Does that make sense because we kind of
I think that when we're in the single outside moment,
sometimes we go into situations having unresolved feelings, right that
you never think that you're going to like, revisit.
Speaker 8 (48:58):
And I think that's honest, and I think think that's normal.
Speaker 20 (49:01):
You're not gonna like especially if you really, you really
truly love a person to spend time with the person,
it just just doesn't go away overnight.
Speaker 5 (49:08):
That's why you can't be laying down with everybody, because
you really do be exchanging and you really did, and
there is a piece of you that you know you
have shared with that person.
Speaker 8 (49:17):
Yeah, but I was.
Speaker 20 (49:18):
After I was very very sure that I wanted to
be with the other person the person after that, I
was very very sure.
Speaker 2 (49:25):
And does it hurt you to talk about it over
and over and over again, does that body or not?
Speaker 8 (49:29):
I'm completely healed.
Speaker 18 (49:30):
Yeah, so safer on the on the project, right you
talk about like I feel safer. Besides you, you make
me want a pressure wine or which person are you?
Speaker 8 (49:39):
Both? And by being a level two people at the
same time. Yes you have, Yes you have? What do
you mean? No, of course you have a long time.
Get what I'm saying, Like, it's a couple of weeks ago, but.
Speaker 5 (49:52):
That's not you can call her, that's.
Speaker 8 (49:58):
I mean you outside, So you kind of got to
have a it's the PASTA no, I'm sorry, not no more.
But my last relationship before I became single, A variety
of ball of variety, that's what at the time I am.
Speaker 18 (50:11):
My last situation before I became single. I was experiencing like,
how the heck am I still have love for you?
But in love or feeling like I might be able
to be in love with a person again, Like is
that a thing? Like I was kind of like confused,
and I know you had that conversation and your visual
as well, like what is happening right now?
Speaker 8 (50:28):
Because your love is just butterflies and lies?
Speaker 18 (50:30):
Because a lot of times it's not love, it's butterflies
and lies, or if it's actual love with this new
person that you got.
Speaker 8 (50:35):
It was actual love with the new person, but I
had to button it up with the other one. Does
that make sense, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (50:42):
Because if you was really truly in love with somebody, right,
your feelings would take overweight when you would never want
to hurt that person, and you would there would be
no way that you could love two people the same way. Well,
one could be infatuation, one could be you just loved
the uterus moving. One could be just a butterfly. Couldn't please,
don't don't cook that, whatever you do, don't cut that.
Speaker 20 (51:02):
Or it could be the memories or what could have been?
And am I walking away from something that is truly
meant for me?
Speaker 5 (51:13):
You know?
Speaker 20 (51:13):
It was I mature at the time, Was I you know,
healed at the time. Was I a good enough woman?
Did I understand myself at the time. It was all
of those things that I had to figure out, you know,
with those two situations. And I regret that I hurt
that person, I really do, but I don't regret that
I found myself.
Speaker 5 (51:32):
I love this honest conversation yeah, I mean I do.
Do you feel lighter now that this music is out? Dude?
Speaker 8 (51:38):
It really truly held me.
Speaker 2 (51:39):
It really did you feel exposed in a.
Speaker 8 (51:40):
Way, not not in a scandalous bad way as some
people want it to be.
Speaker 4 (51:45):
No, if somebody date you now, can they truly believe
that you're into them and not possibly have feelings for
an X or possibly.
Speaker 20 (51:54):
Well, I was honest with that person. I'm going to
be honest about it. Hey, we're grown and I hate
that I'm outside. I don't be that I'm supposed to be.
However I am, and I'm just too old and evolved
and just secured this. Just sit around and play a game.
Speaker 8 (52:11):
I don't really have time.
Speaker 2 (52:12):
Well, i's dating for you? Now? How is that going on?
Speaker 8 (52:14):
I'm not really doing a lot of it. But outside sucks?
That sucks, you know, that's it?
Speaker 18 (52:20):
Are you intentionally dating? Are you just like having a
good time again a little rosta pasta.
Speaker 8 (52:25):
I am not having a good time. I'm not having
a good time, but it is what it is.
Speaker 20 (52:31):
And you know, I feel like now I put myself
in a position to really truly be with my person
and get it and get all that comes with it.
And I'm ready for it, and so that situation will
never ever ever happen to me again.
Speaker 5 (52:46):
So what is being lighter feel like?
Speaker 2 (52:47):
Because you said now that the music is like you
feel lighter.
Speaker 20 (52:49):
You feel like okay, So you know when you really
truly let something go, guilt go, that's what I feel like.
Speaker 8 (52:56):
I completely let it go.
Speaker 5 (52:58):
You know, I'm telling this, it's the perfect time to
do it.
Speaker 2 (53:00):
This is comic the year really yeah, nine you and
it's a nine year, So nine is the highest level
to change.
Speaker 5 (53:07):
So all of this stuff, You're literally supposed to shed
all of this like a snake shadow.
Speaker 8 (53:10):
So it was supposed to happen.
Speaker 20 (53:11):
It was supposed to It was supposed to have this
conversation a few what is that eight months ago? Put
this record together, Get what tricky? Put this record together,
make this film, make my wrongs, try to make my
wrongs right and grow from it.
Speaker 5 (53:24):
Wow, but you did make.
Speaker 2 (53:26):
Your wrongs right. You you owned up. You do what
you had to do. Now it's on Live the Hill,
but you did what you were supposed to do. I think,
thank you.
Speaker 5 (53:34):
So what did heartbreak teach you that like success, never
could personally about yourself with the heartbreaking.
Speaker 8 (53:41):
Well, I've been let down in both areas. I think
one of them I can control. In one of them
I can't. Yeah, heartbreak, I can control. That will never
happen to me again.
Speaker 5 (53:52):
So what version of Tamon walked into the studio? What
version walked out?
Speaker 2 (53:56):
Well?
Speaker 8 (53:56):
I came in here a little heavy because.
Speaker 2 (53:58):
You know about the studio someone when you did.
Speaker 20 (54:01):
The studio Today was rough for me because I think
that sometimes, like it's a lot, right, and I have anxiety,
and I know and I recognize that I'm not.
Speaker 8 (54:13):
On my medication right now, so it's probably heightened.
Speaker 5 (54:18):
You're gonna get asked.
Speaker 20 (54:20):
I don't want to discuss, you know, and you know,
I don't want to make things worse, not only for myself,
but for my loved ones and loved ones being the
person heart that I broke, or my siblings or I
know it's tough for my mother to see her daughters
that way.
Speaker 8 (54:39):
And I also don't want to give opportunity for anybody
to say anything. Yeah, yeah, but I'm okay now.
Speaker 5 (54:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 20 (54:48):
Before I came in, I just sentered myself and I'm like,
I'm in a safe place. I'm in a safe place
because I'm in control of me, in control of what
comes out of my mouth. And it doesn't matter what
the headlines say. I know that whatever I say, I'm
going to stand by.
Speaker 8 (55:00):
And that's it.
Speaker 5 (55:01):
You know, the uterus shifted's gonna come out because I'm
not about him. But if he start doing it, it's
not he's not as a uterus shifter. Yes, that's like
I should have.
Speaker 15 (55:20):
Its.
Speaker 2 (55:20):
Just want to tell you we love you, support you, Yes,
will we have your back?
Speaker 8 (55:24):
Congrats on Bridezilla to thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (55:28):
I do have one more question, because after heartbreak retrograde,
what does love look like moving forward forward?
Speaker 2 (55:32):
Is it softer?
Speaker 6 (55:33):
Is it guarded?
Speaker 5 (55:34):
Is it fearless?
Speaker 8 (55:35):
It's all of that.
Speaker 20 (55:36):
But I'm looking forward to a soft love, I really am.
I'm looking forward to to catering to and catering to me.
Speaker 8 (55:45):
That's a great place there you go what it's a
great place to be talk opened about it.
Speaker 5 (55:57):
I feel.
Speaker 8 (55:59):
Since are you open? Are you public? Because I won't
be public ever again.
Speaker 2 (56:04):
Wait, just four or five months ago she had to.
Speaker 20 (56:08):
She had to figure out which one it was going
to be single and I was dating. That's right, you
should take more than one.
Speaker 2 (56:14):
She's happy she's glowing now and it's the same thing.
Speaker 20 (56:17):
I'm not the best.
Speaker 2 (56:20):
That before.
Speaker 8 (56:21):
I fixed that before a terrible He brought me spray
on hair dye like.
Speaker 2 (56:25):
Spray covers it. You wait, this is true love, the legendary.
Speaker 18 (56:34):
Why to answer your question, I will talk about being
in a relationship, but I don't want to keep certain
things to myself because I haven't seen.
Speaker 8 (56:42):
Him on your page, not yet.
Speaker 20 (56:43):
Do not show him yet. I just don't show him.
I think that's when things get a little while.
Speaker 8 (56:50):
I mean, don't show already posted him. But oh wow.
Speaker 18 (56:54):
But I will say I think certain things I want
to keep to the chest a little bit, just because
I just it's a people be having a lot to
say and a lot going on, and everybody's not built
to deal.
Speaker 8 (57:04):
With all of that.
Speaker 5 (57:05):
And you don't know if that man got a whole
other family.
Speaker 8 (57:10):
Exactly what he got and he don't got. Don't play
with me, that's what I did. Oh that show boo boos,
this is girl. How long has it been boom?
Speaker 2 (57:17):
You can't even see that? Bolls spot stop? How you
gonna lie to like that? Sometimes? How long you've been
with the man? He said? Sometime, I've been dating for
a while. It's a while, Lauren, you all in my business?
Speaker 8 (57:29):
Okay, So did you know about the other people you
were dating? Why he was dating? O?
Speaker 6 (57:32):
Wow?
Speaker 18 (57:33):
When I met him the people that I was like,
kind of have a conversation where we had that conversation. Yeah,
So how did he feel about that we weren't exclusively together?
Like were he gonna you know what I mean? It
was I think more so because we were friends before this,
Like he's not like a stranger. He wasn't really focused
on that. I think he pulled up and understood like, Okay,
once I'm here, I know all that is going to
(57:54):
go by the wayside. So let's just focus on each
other for real in this news space, not as friends.
And so how does men feel about that?
Speaker 15 (58:00):
Up?
Speaker 8 (58:00):
Women dating multiple openly dating the whole.
Speaker 5 (58:05):
I used to call her too low because I feel like,
you like, she's young, you know me and she seeing
the New York. Now go have some fun. But I
just thought it was ridiculous when he took her on
vacation and put will you be my girlfriends? Like you
went like the country?
Speaker 8 (58:17):
Damn, sorry you saw it.
Speaker 5 (58:19):
It was cute, but all the way out the country
to get after you girl.
Speaker 8 (58:22):
Absolutely, you better because this is what I think.
Speaker 20 (58:25):
I think that you were supposed to date several and
mad and made the best man who steps.
Speaker 5 (58:28):
Up when but you done left the man sweat on you.
Speaker 6 (58:31):
So it's like.
Speaker 5 (58:33):
He said that.
Speaker 4 (58:39):
They were they were seeing each other, but they were
joking that. She said, you never asked me, We just
came to It just happened, and that was his joke back,
will you be my girl? They were exclusive.
Speaker 18 (58:49):
I felt like even in my joke as a person
trying to figure out, like how to go into a
relationship because I was in a relationship young and then
it ended when I was like thirty thirty one. So
when I was single, I'm like, I'm just my first
time being an adult and being single. I don't even
know how you get back into a relationship at this point.
But we've had that conversation, and so that was him
being like, Okay, even if you don't know and you're joking,
(59:11):
I want to make sure you feel as secure as
you need to everything.
Speaker 8 (59:15):
He's doing what you need to do, and big fatty over.
Speaker 2 (59:17):
There, that's.
Speaker 8 (59:34):
Remember that used to be.
Speaker 2 (59:39):
Evince.
Speaker 8 (59:40):
I met him and he was a really nice person.
But he's not when you was with him, Teddy. Yeah,
it's not that. But he is a man though.
Speaker 2 (59:53):
This is a man. I enjoyed my.
Speaker 8 (59:54):
Teddy repskin era. I didn't think I would be able
to enjoy that, but enjoyed about victims.
Speaker 5 (59:59):
It's okay to be.
Speaker 2 (01:00:02):
That's what you said.
Speaker 5 (01:00:03):
I think it's for me.
Speaker 18 (01:00:04):
It's not for me now, yeah I can do. He's
not built like your ski. He's just angry and he's
happy for you.
Speaker 8 (01:00:11):
He's just playing so too. Because when I was and he's.
Speaker 20 (01:00:13):
Super happy, I'm inside and being happy for her.
Speaker 5 (01:00:20):
I'm happy. When the man proposed and they walked.
Speaker 2 (01:00:22):
Down, get.
Speaker 8 (01:00:28):
Like, that's all he did.
Speaker 5 (01:00:32):
Make sure you walk down, that's all. Yeah, you're good.
Speaker 8 (01:00:36):
You need no don't say that.
Speaker 5 (01:00:38):

But I've known for years.
Speaker 4 (01:00:42):
You knows what of the things they got to do,
well what I advise live with each other, so you
really see the true meaning. You know, those conversations about
bills and finances, and have that conversation about the future.
How many kids you want, how many kids he wants.
You need to have those conversations before you just get
into it and I'm just saying, have those conversations.
Speaker 8 (01:01:00):

I'm good. I'm in a really great place.

But I'm in.
Speaker 5 (01:03:42):
Character being a little Rod.
Speaker 11 (01:03:43):
And guess what, I shouldn't have did that either.
Speaker 5 (01:03:45):
I shouldn't have been talking about little Rod.
Speaker 11 (01:03:47):
He might have I don't know if he if what
happened with his ass, but I was insensitive about his ass,
and then it turned on me.
Speaker 8 (01:03:54):
Your ass it turns again.
Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
So I'm looking at it.
Speaker 8 (01:03:57):
I'm like I said, the same.
Speaker 2 (01:03:59):
Ass is run and all that.
Speaker 11 (01:04:01):
On the bus talking about a little ride.
Speaker 2 (01:04:03):
I'm in character.
Speaker 5 (01:04:04):
I'm telling the homies.
Speaker 11 (01:04:05):
This is what he said, and then they clipped it
right there.
Speaker 5 (01:04:08):
But this is not okay.
Speaker 11 (01:04:10):
This is not okay.
Speaker 8 (01:04:11):
Yeah, I'm glad. I'm glad you're a good guy.
Speaker 11 (01:04:13):
And he would never take my ass like that said.
Speaker 8 (01:04:19):
He was acting like somebody else.
Speaker 5 (01:04:21):
Yeah, we caught in the middle of the joke.
Speaker 8 (01:04:23):
Yes, we're always caught in the middle of the joke
with ra J, Like the.
Speaker 5 (01:04:27):
Camera caught him in the middle of the joke. Yes,
everybody knew he was pretending to be a little ride
of somebody or being one of the victims from the doc. Yeah.
Speaker 18 (01:04:35):
So he says that Sheila was alive because I told him.
I was like, I tried to find more of the video,
but I couldn't. Do you have he said, she took
it down once it went crazy, but that's what was
happening now. He also says, because I'm like, well, why
would you just be outside acting like little Little Ride?
Like why even get people that to be able to
clip Let's say, listen to what J said. Why are
you outside in public in character as little Ride?
Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
Like why cousin is telling me?
Speaker 5 (01:05:01):
Okay, So, just like y'all post everything.
Speaker 11 (01:05:03):
Since he posted it, it went viral, saw me on
the bullets talking about it. So when I was in
the casino, everybody was talking to.
Speaker 5 (01:05:09):
Me about what they saw and they was like, that
was wow, funny, y'all, and we just started.
Speaker 11 (01:05:13):
Getting into it.
Speaker 8 (01:05:14):
Got you.
Speaker 5 (01:05:15):
I wouldn't troll on my own.
Speaker 11 (01:05:16):
Ass, because I don't troll my own ass.
Speaker 8 (01:05:19):
Don't you think being outside in characters a little ride
is trolling on your own ass.
Speaker 11 (01:05:23):
It's not trolling on my ass.
Speaker 6 (01:05:25):
It was trolling on his ass.
Speaker 11 (01:05:27):
And I think that's the karma behind it, is that
I shouldn't have been even talking about it and joking
about it, because look what karma did. It made people
think I was talking about my own ass.
Speaker 5 (01:05:37):
First of all, rey J knows what he's doing dropping
the clues Bob rey Ja. We are all part of
the Regar rhythm. Okay, it's a lot of different algorithms,
but then there's a ragarrythm, and and you know ray
J creates his on garhythm every day. He's doing it
right now. He called you yesterday, told you to record him,
and now you're playing it back.
Speaker 18 (01:05:54):
You didn't tell me to record him. He said, can
you please clear things up about my behind? And I said,
what if you did it yourself? Can you speak to
people yourself?
Speaker 6 (01:06:02):
Yes?
Speaker 14 (01:06:03):
Either way, And Laurad is old some money everybody need
to pay him because all of this is built on
the trolling of his ass.
Speaker 6 (01:06:11):
So like.
Speaker 5 (01:06:14):
I know, you don't know documentary talking about sometimes you
woke up next to girls, sometimes you woke up next
to Diddy.
Speaker 2 (01:06:20):
And out there and you were saw But but now
I feel like you're trying to make me laugh.
Speaker 5 (01:06:26):
But no, he wasn't laughing.
Speaker 6 (01:06:28):
Leon was not laughing.
Speaker 5 (01:06:31):
Gave him a little petsy.
Speaker 4 (01:06:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:06:33):
Well when the role play happened too, though, like I've
seen that before. I remember that time was you with
me and Puerto Rico and I was not with you.
Speaker 2 (01:06:43):
No, I was not with you.
Speaker 5 (01:06:44):
When Farnsworth Bentley was like, he's how much I'm gonna
tell y'all about the time I met Diddy and he said, Charlamagne,
you be Diddy and I be I'm gonna be mean.
Speaker 2 (01:06:52):
And he walked up to me and he was like, Hi,
I'm far dropping. I was like, you want to say,
but I was not with you?
Speaker 9 (01:06:59):
Know he like that?
Speaker 5 (01:07:01):
Yes, everybody laughed.
Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
Yes, with the Umbrella was like eleven twelve years ago.
I gradually he was this was there. I wasn't there
with you, but Luthor Farms were if he just stayed quiet, right, people.
Speaker 18 (01:07:16):
Felt successfully well in clearing this up and in ending this,
Ray J says he's now on this like campaign that
he's starting.
Speaker 8 (01:07:24):
Let's take a listen.
Speaker 6 (01:07:25):
This one went everywhere.
Speaker 11 (01:07:27):
Yeah, I bet to the point where I got to
defend it because a lot of times when I do crazy,
it'll just blow away pause, but blow aways crazy. But
this one is going way too viral. And then I
was like gonna think about letting it slide again, and
then I click on it and I'll see you talking
about in his head, Ray J said, did he took
(01:07:47):
my butt? I said, enough enough, It's time to go
on to clear and.
Speaker 8 (01:07:50):
Clean clean my campaign, clean my, clean my eyes campaign.
So what's the moral of the story, Like, what did
you like?
Speaker 11 (01:07:56):
Moral of the story is my bad little ride.
Speaker 5 (01:07:58):
I might be kicked off the border to get agency.
Speaker 11 (01:08:00):
Because they don't know if I'm if I'm real or not,
you know what I mean, only straight guy on the agency.
And so for me to say somebody took me, leaves
in with no choice to say, well you wasn't being.
Speaker 6 (01:08:10):
Who you was, right.
Speaker 5 (01:08:11):
This is this is basically a digital enema, is what
he's doing. He's got a clear his ass. He's got
a clear his ass from all of these accusations that
he started.
Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
By the way, that's crazy. I just want Ray j know,

(01:08:58):
his message to the guy's less about this. This Diddy

But I have a notification set for your pages and

Speaker 6 (01:09:49):
Let me ask you a question.
Speaker 4 (01:09:51):
I think the executives of Netflix woke up this morning
be like, is that the show we show we want?
We talked about Ray Jingo.
Speaker 2 (01:09:57):
Well, I mean they just did a whole documentary.
Speaker 4 (01:10:01):
Look Netflix is yes, exactly, shit okay, like dang, okay,
we speaking of a whore giving you your donkey too.
Speaker 5 (01:10:09):
I'm not giving my donkey, okay. But Donkey of the
Day is going to a young lady named Sophia Malocke.
She is a career shoplifter. But I just think she
wanted to go to jail. We'll discuss, all right, We'll
get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club, Good morning.
Speaker 2 (01:10:24):
Some Donkey to.
Speaker 5 (01:10:24):
Day is just saw themselves Charlotte Man, I was ready for.
Speaker 2 (01:10:30):
I never read the Donkey Day again.
Speaker 5 (01:10:34):
Charla, I'm a duncan.
Speaker 2 (01:10:36):
Yes, you are at.
Speaker 5 (01:10:41):
Charlotte Due.
Speaker 2 (01:10:44):
Yeah, donk here today.
Speaker 5 (01:10:45):
For Wednesday, the Sember seventeenth goes to twenty four year
old Sophia Malcke. Okay, she has a career shoplifter from Harford, Wisconsin.
And what I've realized during this holiday season is some
people just need a warm place to stay. Okay, it's
really just that simple. Some individ jewels I refuse to believe,
or it's stupid. They just want to be in jail
right now. Okay, they want to be in jail. They
need a warm place to stay. I have a theory
(01:11:07):
that some humans are fully aware of the crimes they
are committing and how they are committing them, and the
plan is for them to end up in jail because
they know they will at least have a place to
stay for a few hours, okay, a few meals and
some heat if the jail they are in have heat.
But that's clearly a risk you know, some folks are
willing to take because there's no possible way. Some folks,
it is stupid, but maybe you are because I've been
(01:11:30):
doing Donkey today every day on breakfast club for fifteen years,
never a shortage of heataus to deliver and Sophia milake
is delayed to see. Sofia was quickly arrested in a
Wisconsin Walmart because she is a career shoplifter, all right,
that folks know by name and face. In fact, this
most recent time she got arrested shoplifting was the second
(01:11:51):
time in just a matter of days.
Speaker 2 (01:11:53):
All right.
Speaker 5 (01:11:53):
She had allegedly stolen over six hundred dollars worth of
merchandise just days prior and was found with a cart
full items. Would either Sophia and no, no, don't show
or don't care about the police because she decided to
shop lift from Walmart while a shop with a cop
charity event was happening.
Speaker 2 (01:12:11):
I can't make any of this stuff up. Let's go
to ABC twelve at the report.
Speaker 16 (01:12:14):
Police surveillance photos from a Hartford Walmart December third show
a woman walking out of the store with a cart
overflowing with more than six hundred dollars worth of toys,
decor and clothes.
Speaker 5 (01:12:25):
One problem.
Speaker 16 (01:12:26):
Police say she never paid. Hartford Police Chief Scott McFarlane
says the woman returned to the scene Walmart a few
days later.
Speaker 8 (01:12:33):
This time it was crawling with cops.
Speaker 2 (01:12:35):
We were kind of incredulous that she would come back,
considering there probably wasn't a corner that you could turn
around in the store and not see a police officer.
Speaker 16 (01:12:42):
Police were there for Shop with a Cop, an annual
event where officers helped kids fill holiday wish lists. The
Hartford Police chief says there were more than a dozen
officers inside the store with their squad cars visible parked
out front. Still, he says, she continued to walk inside
the store and began filling up the cart. The chief
says officers arrested her out of the view of the kids,
(01:13:03):
finding nine hundred dollars worth of stolen toys in her car.
Speaker 5 (01:13:07):
The criminal complaint says.
Speaker 16 (01:13:08):
She told detectives she would have shoplifted again, but changed
her mind after seeing the police presence in the Walmart
toy section.
Speaker 5 (01:13:17):
A shop with a cop, sofia not shoplift with a cop. Okay,
she walked into a Walmart. Now this is walked into
a Walmart and shoplifted during a Shop with a Cop event.
This is what the Harford Police Department posted on their Facebook.
Unfortunately for her, she walks straight into a Walmart during
the one time of year when the store is basically
a satellite police station. The police officers knew who she
(01:13:40):
was because they already labeled her a career shoplifter. Sophia,
Never has a human needed a change of environment more
than you. Okay. This is why people send their nephews
to live with their auntie and uncles in Bellez. Okay,
this is why Keisha had to move and transfer high
schools and to mar brought to Kill show based off
Judy Bloom's book Forever that's on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (01:14:01):
She needed a change of environment due to the fallout
from a sex tape her boyfriend Christian. Let everybody see, Sophia,
you are in the same exact boat. You need a
change of scenery. Okay, because if soon as you walk
into a retail store, people know what you're coming to do,
that's the problem, all right. The heart for the police
department said, with a few quick observations and a whole
(01:14:21):
lot of you've got to be kidding me, they confirmed
who you were and took you into custody right there
in the midst of Christmas.
Speaker 2 (01:14:30):
Cheir my god.
Speaker 5 (01:14:32):
They got pictures of her dragging a loaded car to
stolen goods towards the exit, and the cops approached her
and saw two hundred and fifty dollars worth of merchandise
in her card, and she told them that she was
trying to get gift for her kids, but just eventually
admitted she was.
Speaker 2 (01:14:47):
Just trying to steal.
Speaker 5 (01:14:49):
My god, okay. She says she planned on stealing the
goods but decided against it after seeing the number of
police in the store. Sophia, if you wanted to go
to jail, just say that. Okay, you saw all those
cops when you walked in the store, when you was
going from out to hour filling up your cart. You
saw all those cops. But you was probably thinking like
I was thinking back in the day. See, I wouldn't
say I was a career shoplifter, but I have shoplifted, okay.
(01:15:13):
But what I would do is walk in the score,
walk in the store, take what I want, never nothing serious,
you know, six pack of butt eyes, some white owl,
blunt sauce magazine, and just walk out, all right. Don't
try to hide it, don't try to conceal it. Just
walk in and walk right out. That's what I think
Sofia was thinking in her mind, she thought the police
would never think I'm stealing with all him in here,
so let me just try it the real quick. But
(01:15:34):
also stealing out of Walmart is crazy because they always
got the over zealous person that checks your receipt when
you're walking out. So I don't even know what Sofia
was on. But cops also found nine hundred dollars worth
of toys in her trunk already, and now she faces
felony retail theft charges. The heart for the police department
had a little word of advice. They said, if you're
(01:15:54):
planning felony retail theft, maybe avoid today when the building
is basically thirty percent law and Horseman and seventy percent
rapping paper.
Speaker 2 (01:16:05):
Please give Sophia Molick the sweet sounds and the hamiltones.
Oh no, you are the doge of the day, the doge.
Speaker 6 (01:16:19):
All the day.
Speaker 5 (01:16:22):
Yee.
Speaker 14 (01:16:26):
You just to call them the homotones, I heard. But
the crazy thing is, I was not about to say that.
You said give them the sweet sounds of the homotones, saying.
Speaker 2 (01:16:33):
You just want to be on that list.
Speaker 4 (01:16:34):
So now I'm not you not the homotones anyway, anyway,
what only thing that where she.
Speaker 8 (01:16:42):
Went wrong as she got greedy, because I gonna lie,
that's a lick.
Speaker 5 (01:16:47):
That is a lick, that is booster a one all day,
like the police said, on a day on the on
the time when there's thirty percent law enforcement, so it's
mad police in there, and then seventy percent rapping paper,
meaning it ain't nothing but a lot of Christmas.
Speaker 2 (01:17:00):
Stuff in this for the most part, I just won't
to play a game, Oh god, what I won't play again?
Why you won't play game?
Speaker 5 (01:17:07):
Will we obvious? Okay, you think it's obvious. Okay, let's
play a game of yes what rac? Yes, Hart for
the Wisconsin walked into a Walmart is a career shoplifter,
already had nine hundred dollars worth of stolen goods in
her trunk, but decided to walk in during a shop
with a cop event and shoplift some more.
Speaker 2 (01:17:29):
Yes what race?
Speaker 4 (01:17:31):
Just like.
Speaker 5 (01:17:34):
I can see why you say that, Yeah, why you
say that?
Speaker 14 (01:17:37):
First of all, Wisconsin, and she thought like she was,
she wouldn't be caught amongst all the all them cops.
Speaker 5 (01:17:44):
And that's white people. Yeah, okay, all right, uh dj NV,
that's twenty four year old Sophia Mlake, career shoplifter from Wisconsin,
walked into a Walmart during a shop with a cop
event and decided to shoplift even though she already had
nine hundred dollars worth of stolen good Darty in her trunk.
Speaker 2 (01:17:59):
Yes, right, why.
Speaker 4 (01:18:04):
White, white, white, white white watch she was going watch
watch what.
Speaker 5 (01:18:11):
White? Just hilarious and dj NV. I want both of
you to know that you are absolutely positively correct. She
held mountains. She is absolutely positively.
Speaker 2 (01:18:25):
Yeah, she's had white Christmas for the last twenty four years.
Speaker 4 (01:18:29):
Yes, the only white person is gonna go into a
store with a bunch of cops outside and still think
they could get away.
Speaker 2 (01:18:35):
But he thought she was gonna blend in.
Speaker 8 (01:18:36):
I'm telling you that's how them, that's how the white
people think.
Speaker 5 (01:18:38):
Like this is and this is a different This is
the privilege why you can look at her and tell
that she's like, I can't believe y'all arrested me.
Speaker 8 (01:18:43):
Y'all arrested me.
Speaker 2 (01:18:44):
She had no money to die, She had no money.
Speaker 14 (01:18:47):
She tried to lie and say that the kids that
she was stealing for our kids, all them damn toys.
Speaker 5 (01:18:54):
She's like Walmart is mine career Islonization White.
Speaker 2 (01:18:59):
Wait, all right, well, thank you for that. Donk you today.
Speaker 4 (01:19:02):
Now when we come back, we have Isaac's the third
one of the owners, the owner of fan Base, of course,
the social media app.
Speaker 2 (01:19:08):
We're gonna talk to him.
Speaker 4 (01:19:10):
He's raising some money to make sure the app stays
alive and continue some of the great features that the
app has.
Speaker 2 (01:19:14):
We're gonna talk to him next. So don't go anywhere.
You got been cropped.
Speaker 5 (01:19:16):
I've been crowdy.
Speaker 6 (01:19:20):
To say, I.
Speaker 2 (01:19:22):
Dreaming is yo? That's the Breakfast looking morning, Good morning.
Speaker 4 (01:19:30):
Everybody is DJ Envy, Jesse, Larryus, Charlamage the guy we
are the Breakfast Club. Law La Rose is here as well,
and we got a special guest in the building.
Speaker 2 (01:19:38):
Isaac's the third.
Speaker 5 (01:19:40):
Good morning, brother.
Speaker 6 (01:19:41):
What's up guys? How you doing good?
Speaker 5 (01:19:43):
Favorite?
Speaker 6 (01:19:44):
You my brother? I am excellent, I am highly favorite
and blessed us.
Speaker 5 (01:19:47):
Well, So what are we doing today? I think what
we're doing?
Speaker 2 (01:19:49):
What we doing?
Speaker 6 (01:19:50):
What do you mean when we're.
Speaker 17 (01:19:51):
Doing We're closing this round for fan Base. We're closing
this equity crowd for fan Base. It closes today. I
feel like this is a great opportunity for everybody to
give an investment as a gift for people. You know,
I've been here before talked about importance of investing, but
especially with social media, I think we really need to
(01:20:12):
galvanize right now, at this time because the world is shifting.
And so I'm telling everybody go to start engine dot com,
slash fan base and invest to own equity in the company.
Reunite United is a minimum investment, but it's a bigger
story than just investing in fan base.
Speaker 5 (01:20:26):
So when people ask the question, they say, Okay, you
know you raised You've raised millions of dollars for fan base.
You know, they may want to invest. Walk us through,
line by line how that capital gets deployed.
Speaker 17 (01:20:37):
Number One, infrastructure. So we just built a brand new algorithm.
You know, we spent almost half the year working on that.
We have some new key hires. All this capital gets
deployed in hiring better people, like really people that used
to work at Meta, they used to work at TikTok,
they used to work at Snapchat, and those salaries aren't cheap.
(01:20:59):
We also have to higher engineers to build what we're
building and develop those products, and it takes time. Honestly,
the amount of capital that I've raised over a five
year period. Some people get deployed five times that capital
in one year and they earn it all and they
go out of business. And so we've had to really stretch,
(01:21:20):
you know how they say, you know, I'm gonna say
you make the make the money stretch, make the food stretch.
We've had to really make this capital stretch with this company.
But it's a testament to our ability to spend wisely,
higher effectively and continue to build the best product.
Speaker 5 (01:21:38):
Now, I agree with you because you know, we see
these tech companies they get, you know, crazy donations all
the time, raised a lot of capital, a lot more
capital than you have.
Speaker 2 (01:21:46):
How much have you raised over the last what five years?
Speaker 6 (01:21:49):
Twenty twenty three million dollars?
Speaker 2 (01:21:51):
Twenty three million dollars?
Speaker 5 (01:21:52):
Like, yeah, that's I mean, I'm not gonna say that's nothing,
because it is something, right, but compared to the other
tech companies, you know, they get a million dollars in
a month.
Speaker 17 (01:22:03):
Man, Listen, some of these Charlemagne, some of these companies
of raised like one hundred and fifty three million dollars
and have not built but one feature, and they're not
even around anymore. And that's because they blow the money.
It's really it's really tough for black founders. People understand,
like black founders get less than half of one percent
of all capital rais.
Speaker 6 (01:22:21):
They don't want DEI.
Speaker 17 (01:22:22):
They're not trying to give us money, and especially someone
like myself that is disrupting the tech space in building
something that we can own. And then, you know, black
people are on the side of ownership, like you know,
we we don't own nothing. I know, we talk about
a lot of this, you know, a lot about building
generational wealth and you know, those types of things, but
(01:22:43):
we don't own the sports teams, we don't own the
record labels, and we don't own you know, Hollywood, and
we help build up all of these infrastructures and we
don't own them. In social media, we help build up
social media, and they tell us the kids stay behind
and they don't want DEI and all that kind of stuff.
And so for me, this is a mission. This has
been my mission, will continue to be my purpose of
my calling to continue to build this company, allow us
(01:23:05):
to finally have the infrastructure of something that can be
worth hundreds of billions of dollars and pull us all
up and give us opportunity.
Speaker 5 (01:23:12):
We do have to acknowledge the black people who do
own things, though I think I've heard you say that before.
Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
But you know, I think, Okay, you know the urban.
Speaker 5 (01:23:19):
Ones of the world, you know, Kathy Hughes, you know,
worldwide technology. You know, like there's you know, you play
things like Uncle nairis like, there's a lot of things
that black people do own.
Speaker 17 (01:23:29):
Yeah, but look what's happening. But it looks what happening
in a lot of these spaces. A lot of these
companies either don't get the capital that they need, they're
tried to they're you know, handcuffed and what they're able
to do. And you really just name like three businesses
out of like you know, half a million.
Speaker 5 (01:23:45):
Oh yeah, I can keep going. I mean there's there's
hundreds of black owned businesses. I'm just saying, like we
I think sometimes we put that narrative out there, and
I think we got to be more specific, like black
people can own more in the tech space. For sure,
we do own things.
Speaker 4 (01:23:59):
Yeah, But the biggest problem asiut It, Isaac and Charlomagne
I feel is sometimes we talk to people like they
should know, right, A lot of these businesses that are
getting these millions and twenty million and fifty million and
raising one hundred and fifty million dollars. Are investors that
have the money and know why they're investing and hopefully
know where their money's going. But for like somebody like you, Isaac,
(01:24:20):
who you know, who's been on the Breakfast Club but
numerous times and asking for money for crowdfunding, I think
people want to know where that money is going. And
why break it down on a level where people will
understand and what's next for you the reason I'm asking
and break it down for what fan base is and
how much money is needed to make sure this gets
(01:24:40):
to the place of a matter or a Twitter or
Facebook or you know, Instagram, because you have to tell
people like what's the overall goal and what's needed to this?
The fan base is self sufficient, so we don't have
that or will it always be a thing like that
for people that don't understand it, don't know?
Speaker 17 (01:24:56):
No, I think to explain how capitals the employed is.
You know, it's kind of what I said earlier. Tech
companies are not social media platforms are not cheap, right, correct,
And so there's two things. It's how fast you can build,
how well you can build, you know what I'm saying.
And so if you don't have capital to build the
right product, then it's not gonna it's not gonna happen.
(01:25:19):
So we have salaries, we have infrastructure, we have all
the tech stack, you know, all the things that we do.
Speaker 6 (01:25:24):
Like we we employed about forty people.
Speaker 17 (01:25:27):
We have a lot of C suite executives that are
that are working, and all this stuff is built and
rolled into a company that is trying to fight the
fight against major tech corporations. Now, to explain what fan
base is and understand why that it that it costs
what it costs. Fan base is basically social media through
the lens of black ownership. But the functionality is the same. Right,
(01:25:49):
we do have posts, we have stories, we have live,
we have short form, we have long form, we have
audio check, we have algorithm, we have dms, we have subscriptions,
we have tipping. All those parts are put together in
one platform, right and integrate it so that people can
have the ability to monetize their content from the moment
that they sign up.
Speaker 6 (01:26:07):
Build community.
Speaker 17 (01:26:09):
And when you think and when you compare fan base
like and I'll tell anybody to do this, compare fan
base to your experience that you get on a TikTok
or experience that you get on the Instagram, and just
grade us based off that. But remember that those companies
have thirty thousand engineers and have you know, billions of
dollars of capital. And here we are, you know, building
up from the ground up, from scratch with a small team,
(01:26:33):
and we're still here. And I think that's really the
most important part. And then the things that we're things
that we're actually breaking. We're actually breaking the opportunity for
black people to get into the microdrama space, for users
to actually monetize their data and have it trained by
AI if they want to. But on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook,
they're training off your data right now and not paying
(01:26:55):
you anything.
Speaker 6 (01:26:55):
And so this is a real challenge.
Speaker 17 (01:26:57):
But it's a lot of moving pieces in parts that
come to together is make this machine run.
Speaker 2 (01:27:02):
How many months of runway this fan base currently have?
Speaker 17 (01:27:04):
We have about eighteen months of runway, a little bit
longer than that. And you understand like even in that
amount of time, there's so much that you have to
accomplish in that period of time because you're always going
to be raising capital I think the difference between what
I do with everybody else is you publicly hear that
I'm raising all the time. But startups are raising all
(01:27:25):
the time fifty million, one hundred million, two hundred million,
three hundred million, but it usually comes from vcs and
private equity, and those deals are always made public. This
has made public because the people that are investing are
not the rich guys and the billionaires in the oligarchs.
Speaker 6 (01:27:38):
It's you.
Speaker 17 (01:27:39):
It's means the people that we know that are putting
their money into the business. And so that's why it's
so public and you see everything all the time.
Speaker 4 (01:27:44):
So when you say people are investing, so you say
the minimum investment is three ninety nine, So if somebody
invests that three ninety nine, what percentage are of the
company or how much of an investment are they getting?
What's the ROI on that for somebody who you know,
because it's tough out there. But so if somebody wants
to give three ninety nine and they want to know
what they getting back.
Speaker 17 (01:28:02):
Yeah, So every investment that you make, especially in the
early stage company, you ride the life of the investment, correct,
So you're here from the beginning all the way till
we either IPO or somebody acquires the company. So you
see like like if Warner Brothers is about to get
acquired and that that's a different scenario. But when that
company is acquired, the shareholders in that company will all
(01:28:23):
be bought out right and then Netflix or whoever will
acquire that company. So when you do early stage investing
like that in seed startups, that's what you get. And
so for three ninety nine, you're getting a small, small,
small piece of the company. But the upside of what
I tell people is that the value in which these
tech companies get to is where you see a return
(01:28:44):
on your investment. So we're value at one hundred and
sixty million dollars right now. I want to put that
in perspective of what Meta is value. That Meta is
a one point nine trillion dollar company, So you think
about one point six billion, sixteen billion, one hundred and
sixty billion, that's a thousand x return. So someone that
invests three ninety nine, even if we get to something
(01:29:05):
that is ten times less valuable than Meta, five times
less valuable than TikTok and Instagram, that's still a thousand
x return on the type of investment. That you're putting
in there. And that's the part that people don' understand.
When you invest in any business, they tell you, like,
fifteen percent is an amazing return on an investment. And
I didn't raise capitalist way to give somebody fifteen percent back.
(01:29:27):
I didn't want somebody to put in four hundred dollars
right and give four hundred and forty dollars back. I'm
not doing it for that or four hundred and forty
five dollars back.
Speaker 6 (01:29:35):
That's not what I'm doing.
Speaker 17 (01:29:36):
I'm investing in I built a tech company so that
people could put four d dollars in, two hundred and
fifty dollars in, and together we build something that could
be worth hundreds of billions of dollars that's still far
below what other tech companies have, and exit that company,
and then at that time, you know, we're distributing generational
wealth to our people because it's tech. The fastest way
to real wealth right now currently is in the tech space,
(01:29:58):
and you can't save your way to wealth. I have
to invest. We don't think a lot about investing nowadays.
We're not really thinking about, you know, putting our money
into things that we can see a long return. They
will tell us to go through prize picks and gamble
and play the lottery and go to Vegas like that's
all that. All of that is the stuff that they
push on people of color. No one in these other
(01:30:18):
rooms people are getting together quietly and saying, hey, put
your money in this startup, put your money in that startup.
And they're not telling the average person to do this
kind of thing, because that's the lockout. They want the
access to the best deals, all the vcas and investors
want the access to the best opportunity to invest. And
so that's why this is important. This is breaking a
whole system down that a lot of people don't. I've
(01:30:40):
seen more people now use equity crowdfunding, especially people of
color since I started, and I was one of the
first people to really start doing is to have major
success at it. Now everybody does equity crowdfunding. I've seen
startups and I've introduced multiple people to equity crowdfunding because
it's a way to circumvent the racism, the discrimination, and
all the things that exist. And so that's why it's important.
Speaker 5 (01:31:00):
When when should investors reasonably expect the return and in
what form would that ROI look.
Speaker 6 (01:31:06):
Like so the ROI would be probably eight years.
Speaker 17 (01:31:09):
I already said, like, you know, six to eight years
is when you invest right and you see a return
like Prime example again like Uber had seed investment in
twenty ten and twenty nineteen they went public, So it
took nine years, but the people that invested in that
nine year period saw five thousand x return right on
those on that investment. And that's those are people that
put five thousand dollars in and so twenty four million
(01:31:31):
dollars come back, right. And so any early stage company
you would think between you know, six to nine years,
you would get a return on your investment. And then
how that happens is through a liquidity event. And the
liquidity event is somebody either buys the company, like somebody says, okay,
we're gonna buy fan base at a higher evaluation than
it was before, or we go public, which is still
selling the company. And that's when you know, you ring
(01:31:52):
the bell on the stock market and everybody can sell
their shares that day or and that's what money comes
in and people and buy shares, and so that's how
it works.
Speaker 5 (01:32:00):
Hold on now, and you said five to six years,
so you know, people are gonna be looking like, wait
a minute, I put money in back in twenty nineteen,
twenty twenty, so you sure you.
Speaker 17 (01:32:10):
When we didn't ra Yeah, we didn't really raise capital.
We didn't close our first round till twenty twenty one. Okay, right,
so that's what I'm saying. We didn't close our first
round till twenty twenty one and again, but again, and
also those are people that get like VC dollars, Charlottege,
That's what I'm saying, Like this is people don't understand
how incredibly hard this is. But I love it because
it's the It's the biggest challenge of my life and
(01:32:32):
we're being successful at it and will continue to be successful.
But man, like this is like you know, this is
this is this is an amazing a journey in process
for me. But yeah, this is also it's also sation.
Speaker 4 (01:32:44):
It's also teaching because we talk about generational wealth and
it talks about some of the times where people don't
understand because we've never been taught. It's not like we've
had millions and millions of dollars passed down from generations
like you know, other backgrounds have. So it's also a
teaching method, right, So you're teaching people what it means
to crowdsource and to get money and to put money
down and how much money you can get back. So
(01:33:05):
it's also a matter of teaching, So answering the question
shouldn't be really a problem because you're teaching a generation
that might not know.
Speaker 9 (01:33:11):
No.
Speaker 17 (01:33:11):
Absolutely, That's why I consistently have you know, told other
people to actually invest right, and I mean other people
to use equity crowdfunding. I've helped like five or six
other companies raised through equity crowdfunding and told them about
equity crowdfunding. And that's a really good thing because it's
an alternative to black people going to banks, an alternative
for black people trying to get loans and trying to
(01:33:33):
ask venture you know, go for venture dollars and angel investing,
where those deals to be predatory. A lot of what
I do is disruptive because of what I knew coming
from the music business, right, So I knew that I
had to create two classes of stock and make sure
that no one else has voting shares because that's when
people try to force you out of your company, right.
(01:33:54):
And I knew that the deals that you get from
angel investors are some times predatory. So somebody gives me
two hundred thousand dollars to invest in fan base when
I first had the idea, They get twenty percent of
the company, and I put my own two hundred thousand
dollars in it, so I saved that twenty percent. So
those are the things that most people don't know because
a lot of my friends that are founders got forced
(01:34:15):
out of their companies. They got taken advantage of, they
got in bad deals that don't allow them to raise
capital from other people.
Speaker 6 (01:34:21):
So it's real.
Speaker 17 (01:34:22):
It's a dirty game. It's not as dirty as the
music business. But for me, it's something that I was very,
very familiar with because I know, you know a lot
of founders just coming with a great idea and then
they get some guys in there like yeah, here's half
a million dollars, but I want a board seat and
X Y Z and all that kind of stuff. You
get voted out of the company. As Stacey Sparks, I
don't know if you've ever seen Movie Pass, but the
(01:34:42):
guys that in been in Movie Pass for two black guys,
they took in capital, they had board seats. TheInk got
voted out of their own company. The guys ran up
a huge bill on movie Pass and destroyed the whole
companies and white dudes. And that's what I'm saying, is like,
that's what happens when when we try to build our businesses.
It's very, very predatory, but it's gonna take it's gonna
be hard, it's gonna take longer, but it's gonna be
well worth it because people can follow my blueprint and
(01:35:04):
do exactly what I did. And I'm paving that way
so that you know, you can own your company, not
get voted out, have as much equity as you possibly
can to give yourself more, the ability to raise more capital.
Speaker 6 (01:35:14):
All that stuff is important.
Speaker 2 (01:35:15):
How they invest it.
Speaker 17 (01:35:17):
They go to start Engine dot com slash fan base
to invest that's a you know, start engine dot com
slash fan base to invest in Minimus three hundred nine
nine dollars. You get sixty shares of stock and fan base,
and you will own the infrastructure of social media and
micro dramas in the future.
Speaker 2 (01:35:32):
All right, well, thank you, Isaacas. The third regulation and
it's the breakfast.
Speaker 6 (01:35:37):
Good morning. Do you feel me up? Swallow me up?
Speaker 5 (01:35:40):
Whoa, he didn't say that, crazy he didn't say that.
Speaker 2 (01:35:43):
I don't know what's going on with you.
Speaker 9 (01:35:44):
No know.
Speaker 5 (01:35:44):
I'll be thinking about the video where Chris Brown was
mocking Mission TDJS.
Speaker 2 (01:35:48):
Remember have you ever been swazed up?
Speaker 15 (01:35:52):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:35:52):
I swallowed up? Can you swallow me up? All right,
let's get to the latest. Long becoming great fast. She
gets them somebody that knows, somebody detail.
Speaker 8 (01:36:05):
I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 2 (01:36:07):
And she'd be having the latest on you.
Speaker 6 (01:36:11):
The latest with Lauren La Rosa.
Speaker 5 (01:36:13):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you
have a little bit of everything on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 8 (01:36:22):
Yes, guys, good morning. So we have another update.
Speaker 18 (01:36:25):
I know we've been following this case Rob Reiner and
his wife Michelle Reiner, who were killed in their home
over the weekend, allegedly by their son, Nick, So yesterday,
the LA District Attorney Nathan Holchem announced that they formally
filed charges against Nick Reiner. The charges are two counts
two counts of first degree murder for the death of
(01:36:47):
his parents. Let's take a listen to the DA talking
about Nick today.
Speaker 7 (01:36:50):
I'm here to announce that our office will be filing
charges against Nick Reiner, who was accused of killing his parents,
actor director Rob Reiner and Fatalugrapher producer Michelle Singer Reiner.
These charges will be two counts of first degree murder
with a special circumstance of multiple murders. He also fasts
(01:37:11):
a special allegation that he personally used a dangerous and
deadly weapon, that being a knife. These charges carry a
maximum sentence of life in prison without the possibility parole
or the death penalty. No decision at this point has
been made with respect to the death penalty. We have
requested and currently Nick Reiner is being held without bailoud
(01:37:37):
he has been alleged one of these special allegations is
that the murder was committed with a deadly weapon or
a knife.
Speaker 5 (01:37:44):
As to where and how.
Speaker 7 (01:37:46):
The weapon will be was located or will be located,
that will actually be evidence while presenting court.
Speaker 2 (01:37:53):
I pray he had no access to his parents' money.
Speaker 5 (01:37:56):
I pray that they didn't leave him anything in their will,
because if he's able to use his parents' resources to
fight his case, that would just feel wrong.
Speaker 2 (01:38:05):
Yes, and to leave.
Speaker 5 (01:38:06):
Something in your will to somebody who actually took your life, Yeah,
I hope.
Speaker 4 (01:38:10):
He gets none of that. I hope he gets no
access to that. I hope he can't use that money
to pay lawyers.
Speaker 2 (01:38:15):
I hope not.
Speaker 5 (01:38:15):
I went out legally how that works if I you
don't expect to get taken out by your own children, right,
you leave them stuff and they will I wanted to
how that worked.
Speaker 18 (01:38:24):
I'm not for sure, but I know yesterday his attorney
who is a powerhouse attorney. And when I saw that,
because this is the same attorney that just got Karen
Reid off as well. She was going through a case
about man. So Karen Reid is a woman who they
alleged had like backed up, she was driving under the
influence of something, and that she had backed up and
(01:38:44):
hit a man who was a police officer with her
car and left him for basically for dead. And he
was able to get her off of basically all of
the serious charges in that case. But so he showed
up to court yesterday on Nick's behalf. And he's a
powerhouse attorney that's like literally if you look him up,
like he's known as like a big attorneys, though I'm
assuming he's pretty expensive. But yesterday Nick Reiner was not
(01:39:05):
in court because he didn't pass like a medical clearance.
And remember I told you guys that I reached out
when the whole suicide stuff was mentioned to see if
this was procedural or if something was said.
Speaker 2 (01:39:17):
Uh.
Speaker 18 (01:39:17):
And yesterday Alan Jackson, who is the attorney that I'm
talking about for Nick Reiner, said that the fact that
he didn't pass the medical clearance or get the medical
clearance done before Courton was able to not able to
come to court was something that was procedural. And he
says that they're going to be back every day until
that clearance or whatever is needed because Nick is supposed
to make an appearance in court.
Speaker 6 (01:39:36):
So gotcha.
Speaker 2 (01:39:36):
I wonder what go through a lawyer's mind when you
have to take a case like this, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 7 (01:39:42):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (01:39:42):
Yeah, I mean such a heinous case like this, Like, yeah,
what are you trying to do? I mean, I'm sure
that movie's advocate, remember I love Devil.
Speaker 6 (01:39:52):
For some movie.
Speaker 4 (01:39:52):
I'm sure it's publicity. I'm sure it's press, but I
wouldn't want this type of press. Yeah, I mean, but
if he I said money, duh, I know that, but damn.
Speaker 5 (01:40:02):
I'm yeah.
Speaker 18 (01:40:03):
I mean, but if he's used to doing cases like this,
it's just something that he takes on because I know
that Karen read case was a big deal, Like I
remember seeing headlines about it, you know what I mean.
So I don't know, but Nick is still being held
at men Centrul Jail in LA and we'll just you know,
keep I guess, bring you guys updates on what happens
and when it happens. Now, switching gears a big so
(01:40:26):
Kai s to not celebrating his birthday and he posted
a video. You guys remember back at the Streamer Awards,
he got on stage and he talked about some of
the mental health things that he's been battling in just
different new ventures he wants to try and explore. So
he posted a video and celebration of his birthday kind
of explaining further. Let's take a listen.

and how important it is to take care of yourself.

with mental health out of self doubt and fright of
pursuing goals that I really.
Speaker 5 (01:40:54):

about creating, and I have other goals and things that
I just want to achieve. I would love to show

three Hidden. I just want to let you guys know

of frustration and fear, I've just been in my head
for some reason. I never had this feeling before, But
I truly want to create. And I don't know if
I'm getting mature or I'm just looking things at a
