Speaker 3 (04:09):
What never mind, what's up?
Speaker 6 (04:11):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 9 (04:12):
I was gonna say how we fill in on a
home day, but I can see how we feel in.
Let's get to this front page, all right, So more
on the situation regarding the redrawing of Texas congressional maps. So,
Texas Republicans again were blocked from moving forward with their
congressional redistricting plan for the second day in the row,
and the House convened but failed to reach a quorum
after more than fifty Democrats left the state and went
(04:33):
to Illinois, New York, and Massachusetts to prevent Republicans from
advancing redistricting maps. Now, the Texas House Speaker issued civil
arrest warrants for the appsent Democrats, but legal experts say
they're probably not enforceable outside of state lines. The Republicans
plan is aimed at adding up to five GOP seats
ahead of the twenty twenty six midterms. Now, yesterday President
(04:54):
Trump and Republican Yesterday, President Trump said Republicans are entitled
to more five to the five seats in Texas. Let's
take a listen to his conference, and we have.
Speaker 10 (05:04):
An opportunity in Texas to pick up five seats. We
have a really good governor and we have good people
in Texas. But in Illinois, what's happened is terrible what
they're doing. And they do you notice they go to
Illinois for safety. But that's all Jerry Mander.
Speaker 9 (05:21):
So Texas Democrats are ready to stay in Illinois for
as long as it takes in their fight against GOP
redistricting efforts. Texas Republicans, of course, are defending the redrawing
of those congressional boundaries, like state Representative Katrina Pearson. She
says minorities in the state of Texas are starting to
trend Republican, and she points to the border with Mexico,
adding that Hispanics have increasingly been voting for Trump. The
(05:44):
proposed map, she says, reflects that. Meanwhile, in Illinois, Governor
Pritzker is JB. Pritzker is considering the idea of a
possible mid decade congressional remap in Illinois. Speaking yesterday in
Aora alongside Texas state representatives and DNC chairman Martin. Pritzker
says redrawing Illinois congressional districts isn't something he wants to do,
(06:04):
but everything is on the table in the fight against
the GOP's redistricting efforts in Texas. Let's take a listen
to Illinois Governor JB.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
Pritzker.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
If they're gonna cheat, then all of us have to
take a hard look at what the effect of that
cheating is on democracy, and that means we've all got
to stand.
Speaker 11 (06:22):
Up and do the right thing.
Speaker 9 (06:24):
Democratic Texas lawmakers, of course, have been a noise since
Sunday again talking about just you know, trying to prevent
those redistricting efforts. Okay, so California has also entered the
chat in this The state Democratic leaders are preparing to
support Governor Gavin Newsom's proposal for a special election in
November to do the exact same thing that JB.
Speaker 6 (06:45):
Pritzker is going to do.
Speaker 8 (06:46):
So.
Speaker 9 (06:46):
Newsom says he's responding to President Trump urging Texas Republicans
to redistrict their twenty twenty six secure to redistrict for
twenty twenty six to secure GOP control. Let's hear more
from California Governor Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 12 (07:00):
He's dialing for seats familiar because he dialed for votes
in the last election. Here's a someone who tried to
break this country, try to light democracy on fire. On
January sixth, he recognizes he's going to lose in the midterms.
That's what's at stake, and that's why we're putting a
stake in the ground. We're not drawing lines to draw lines.
We're holding the line on democracy, on the rule of law,
(07:24):
coequal branches.
Speaker 11 (07:25):
Of government, popular sovereignty.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
That's what this is about.
Speaker 9 (07:28):
So in California, knew someones to allow lawmakers to temporarily
regain the power to redraw congressional district maps. Of course,
it was taken away in two thousand and eight and
given to an independent commission. Upholling by the Democratic leaders
on Sunday indicates over half of those surveyed are in
favor for the special election, while forty four forty one
percent opposed it seven percent are undecided. Of course California.
(07:50):
Former California governor and Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger opposes the efforts
and called jerry mander jerrymandering evil and for those who
don't know jerry mandering is defined as manipulating the boundaries
of an electoral constituency to favor a party or a class.
It's also important to note that states do you redraw
their maps about every ten years based on census data.
(08:11):
So that's why they say it's recommended that you do
your census.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Yeah, New York. New York said they're moving forward. We're
districting too. I mean, if they said if Texas does it,
then you know if Texas nuxs and they gonna buk yep.
Speaker 9 (08:24):
So that's your front page news for six am. Y'all
can follow me on. Excuse me, we're not quite there yet.

if they're like, you know, an animal or something that

because this isn't this isn't something new, Like you know,
midget wrestling is a thing. Like they got dwarfing natives,

When you grow up with midget around you, you know

Do this, So you can you can do this. There's
a lane for it.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
But I'm sure there is permits and legal stuff that
you have to do. You just can't put up a
ring and say midgets fight that.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
Like I think I agree.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
You can't do that.
Speaker 1 (13:08):

pressing it is for a peri, especially when here and
betrayed everything Sean got into office. It just seems like
every single day I listen to you guys every morning,
it just seems like it's getting worse and worse and worse.
And at this point, it bless it seems too far
fast for him and make the annual currents at this point.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
I know that.
Speaker 13 (14:48):
Sounds silly, but it just seems like that's that's why
I was going next. And then also, I'm so the
parent from my city to say, if we had a
primary election, yeah, for the time, who's got to run
off the mayor? And always maybe one hundred thousand people
about it?
Speaker 8 (15:03):

Oh?
Speaker 5 (15:08):
Well, I'm sorry, mom, I will say things would be better,
but that's what that's the typical thing that people say, right,
things would be better, keep praying, but I understand why
you steel depressed. The cross of groceries are high, the
cost of living is high.
Speaker 11 (15:20):
Uh.
Speaker 13 (15:20):
And then it's like more people are gonna lose their
jobs for them uh, basically taking John through them self
offer sets because of those people who working on factories,
those drivers, they're not gonna be able. It's not they're
not gonna be able to manufacturer though deliver for the
So more people are about to lose their job, like,
(15:40):
like we are really in dark times, not only.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
So the passing well, I'm so sorry, that's horrible.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
And see, this is why I'll be saying when you
can't you can't lie to people like you know, when
those unemployment numbers come out and you know you hear
President Trump saying, oh these aren't real. You can't lie
to people about what they're actually going through and what
they're actually feeling.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
Right, we got decks on the line, decks the good morning,
Good morning.
Speaker 14 (16:02):
Come on, DJ, good morning. I'm trying to man chances.
I've been listening to you guys for years. Good morning,
good morning.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
I quoting.
Speaker 14 (16:12):
My question today is man Trump is going too much? Man,
he just put his head down and really start helping
the country because we hurt not here, man, We really bad.

Speaker 8 (16:37):
Man.
Speaker 14 (16:37):
You know I'm from New York, you know so well.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
And that's the problem here.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
You know, when you when you promise day one relief,
and you promise that grocery prices and inflation and all
of these things that go down on day one, people
are expecting that. And once again you cannot lie to
people about what they're feeling. I don't care what statistics say,
I don't care what data says. The people with their
boots on the ground, they know what they're going through.
Speaker 8 (16:59):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (17:00):

Speaker 17 (18:12):
Diddy's attorney, Nicole Westmoreland, she's one of delete attorneys in
his case, was on CNN yesterday late yesterday and she
was asked about the party with Trump. Let's take a
listen to her on ditty party.
Speaker 18 (18:24):
Have people in Seawan Colmes's orbit have they had conversations
with the Trump administration?
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Yes, we've uh, it's my understanding that we've reached out
and had conversations and reference to a pardon.
Speaker 18 (18:39):
President Trump when he was asked about this pardon, he said, quote,
I was very friendly with him. I got along with
him great, and he seemed like a nice guy. I
didn't know him well, but when I ran for office,
he was very hostile. And the President indicated that a
pardon is likely not on the table because of that
break in his relationship with mister Holmes years ago. How
(19:03):
is he feeling now about the chances of a pardon
given the President's commentary.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
I think that mister Colmbs is a very hopeful person,
and I believe that he remains hopeful.
Speaker 17 (19:18):
Yeah, and they're they're really pushing, you know, this narrative
about whether the pardon will or will not happen. Now,
I was poking around yesterday because what I'm trying to
understand is, number One, if the pardon even happens, because
of the way that the judges has been making sure
Didd he is not coming home and belling to a sentencing.
If the parton even happens, what does that look like,
did he? What does that look like for Diddy once
(19:39):
he's released? Like what is Trump going to expect in exchange?
Because Trump has been very vocal about the fact that
he doesn't really care to do this right, And yesterday
I'm poking around. What I was told was that poking
around did he? What I was told was that a
big part of the issue is, uh, the interviews that
(20:00):
he did leading up to this. One of the interviews
in particular that I was told the administration has actually
seen and brought up in conversation in these conversations is
an interview that Diddy did with Charlemagne on.
Speaker 19 (20:12):
A Revolt Tred Oh God.
Speaker 16 (20:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 19 (20:14):
So this was back in twenty twenty.
Speaker 17 (20:16):
It was October twenty twenty, during the twenty twenty presidential election,
and this was a few months after Diddy had said
the whole hold your vote thing let's take it a
listen to Diddy on white men needing to be banished.
Speaker 20 (20:28):
White men like Trump need to be banished that way of.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
It's real dangerous.
Speaker 20 (20:36):
This man literally threatened the lives of us and our
families about going to vote.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Stand back and stand by, Stand back and stand by.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
We're in a war. We're not taking this like it's
a war.
Speaker 20 (20:49):
We're taking this like oh, we're in a presidential election.
We're in a war of love versus hate. The number
one priority is to get Trump out of office.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Oh yeah, nah, he's not getting parted.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
I mean yeah, I can understand. I can understand why
Trump wouldn't want to party after hearing that.
Speaker 17 (21:09):
If you remember this conversation, it gets worse. Let's take
a listen to Diddy talking about a race war.
Speaker 20 (21:14):
The tribe of people that have the responsibility and really
should be scared to death for this man is white people.
Speaker 8 (21:22):
M hmm.
Speaker 20 (21:24):
If this man is elected, we're not standing by no
more getting killed. We're not scared of anybody standing up
and standing by.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
We're on the verge of a race war.
Speaker 20 (21:39):
If people in America want a race war, they'll not vote.
Speaker 6 (21:45):
Yeah, So, I mean, yeah, he's not gonna get that
party once once.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I don't think it. I don't think it's a race war.
I think it's a it'll be a class war if anything.
I can see that happening of a battle between you know,
rich and rich and the because that's just what's going
to happen when you're poor and you're trying to survive.
When you're poor and you're trying to survive, you're going
to go You're going to eat the rich. That's just
that's just a common sense thing. That's why you should
always take care of the least of you in a society.
Speaker 17 (22:12):
Yes, I agree. Now also, well, first of all, I
just want to say, after listening to this, I was like,
whoa those conversations. I don't know where the're gonna end up.
Speaker 10 (22:21):
But uh.
Speaker 17 (22:22):
They also talked to Nicole west Moreland on CNN about
the civil cases, because I think people are still forgetting
that on the civil side, things are still happening.
Speaker 19 (22:28):
Let's say, listen to her on the civil cases.
Speaker 18 (22:30):
He is still facing around seventy civil allegations from men,
from women, from people who led that they were miners
at the time, across decades, with horrific accusations of being drugged,
of being sexually assaulted. Each of those cases does have
to play through the courts individually, So I understand that
(22:54):
he denies them, but those are still active cases.
Speaker 10 (22:58):
True.
Speaker 6 (22:58):
But let me let me let me say this to you.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
This is the federal government, all right. It doesn't really
get any stronger than that. And so they obviously fully
investigated mister Holmes and obviously through the book at him.
Speaker 20 (23:13):
Right.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
And so if you think for a second, if the
government really thought that there were miners.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Out there hanging in the balance, if.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
The government really thought that there was drugs in the
baby oil or something of that nature, do you you
think the government just wouldn't have brought that up in
a full fledged criminal trial. Absolutely not, right, So that's
not even logical. And so if the government had, if
there was any real evidence of those allegations, we would
(23:44):
have heard all about it in the criminal trial.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Yeah, question, Lauren.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
If they asked him for a pardon already, that means
they're expecting Diddy to get sentenced to print the time, right, yep.
Speaker 19 (23:54):
That is what basically I mean.
Speaker 17 (23:55):
You have to because even during the whole trial they
had appeal lawyers in the trial just watching and taking
notes to prepare for an appeal before and they were
there were rumors that they and I talked to some
of the lawyers in court that were saying that Diddy's
team allegedly was like already seeking forfeiture attorneys too.
Speaker 19 (24:09):
So I think you just prepare, just in general.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Prepare for the worst.
Speaker 17 (24:12):
Yes, But I do believe that, you know, conversations they
and I did try and figure out who's having what conversations,
and you know, they won't give me that, but I
think yues to your point that that's what that means.
I am not confident though that the party will happen,
and I'm starting to get I wasn't nervous for him
at this ending. I thought it was gonna be something
he wasn't gonna walk, but like something small.
Speaker 19 (24:31):
But now I don't know, I'm starting to feel little
bit differently.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
I'm very nervous. I'm very nervous. I'm gonna tell you why,
because I still believe that this is uh and I
don't know. It just feels like they don't like him,
and it feels like this is revenge, right because the
charges that he's been charged with. There's people been that's
been charged with this before, and that they proved, that's
only gotten community service, that's only gotten a fine.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
It almost seems.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Like he's saying that, but you gotta give me, you
gotta give me some examples. I've heard you say that
a couple of times.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
You got It's like I've heard lawyer say, I've watched.
Speaker 19 (25:03):
You can't sell Charlotte.
Speaker 17 (25:04):
I can see the letter that the judge when he
recapped everything, he mentions cases.
Speaker 19 (25:09):
You could look up the cases and they'll give you
the breakdown.
Speaker 17 (25:11):
And when Diddy's team said, hey, these are different cases
where these people didn't have to do half the things
that Diddy is being is having to do waiting sentenceing,
but and be, the judge shot back, they keep and
I said this yesterday to the source I was talking to.
Speaker 19 (25:25):
The judge keeps leaning in on the fact that Jane and.
Speaker 17 (25:27):
Cassie, the prosecutors, they presented information to show that they
believe that these women were coerced, they were being they
were threatened, all these things.
Speaker 19 (25:35):
So that's where they're bringing in the violence.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
And I but even with the violence, he's not charged
with the violence like him beating Cassie is the worst thing,
one of the worst things I've ever seen. But he's
not being in charge with that. And it almost seems
like what they did with Ojight. OJ was found not
guilty for murder, right, but he got thirty three years
for stealing his stuff back and he said on robbery.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
OJ didn't even have a gun. But that's what it
seems like.
Speaker 5 (25:56):
It seemed like how OJ got thirty three for stealing
his stuff back, which it seems like they're gonna try
to do that with Diddy. Give him Diddy, like twenty
years for something that people that has been charged with
this guy community service.
Speaker 17 (26:07):
Well, I did ask, you know who specifically was having
conversations with the administration because I wanted to know how
strong those conversations would be. And I was just because
I was like, Hey, is it just letters from his kids?
Is it the actual defense team?
Speaker 19 (26:18):
Is it?
Speaker 10 (26:19):
Like?
Speaker 19 (26:19):
Who is it?
Speaker 17 (26:20):
And I was told it's not letters from his kids.
They said it's not his actual defense team. But they
did say that there are high powered attorneys that they've
been told to your point, ENV that feel the same
way you do, that have relationships with the administration that
have been reaching out, having conversations and doing things on
their part. So there are people behind the scenes that
do feel like how you feel about I'm nervous.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Got to be law.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
I got to be fair. That's my whole thing. It
has to be fair. It has to be based of
what he's charged with. Now, if he was charged with
beating Cassie given the fing book, but if it's the
things that he was he was found not guilty of
rico file, found not guilty of those main charges, you
got to be fair with that, correct, because it could
happen to anybody when it comes to court law, and
everybody wants to be in law fair right, they want
to be in court.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
I do idare I do agree that we want court
to be fair. But if his remaining two charges are
what he's ten years for one charge and ten years
for the other charge for, how is that not fair?
That's the law he's like he beat the other charges,
like the other charges he beat like that he forgot
found not guilty on all those other things. So he's
(27:19):
facing two charges right now of what prostitution right the
man prostitution and it's ten years a piece. So what
is what is not fair about? What he's facing right now.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
No, it's not what's fair.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
It's like, for instance, right, if if you drive and
you drive with a d UI, you can get but
let me see, I'm looking it up right now, you
can get five years in prison. But I don't think
that we know anybody that on their first charge with
d UI. And now nobody ever got hurt that got
five years. They got they got community service, and you
get your license taken care of. But that one person
that got d UI, that got the bookd on at him,
(27:51):
that just seems unfair when everybody else that got a
DUI and I'm just using as an example, got community service.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
But that one person that you got five Yeah, that's
not fair.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Listen, once again, trouble is easy to get into him,
hard to get out of it. I don't know. I
don't know if fair is the right word. I don't
know if we're using the right word. Yeah, I don't
know if the word is fair. But he's just what
he's facing. He beat the other charges right in a
court of law, right, and this is what he got
found guilty of.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
So he's got to deal with what he got found
guilty of.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
All right, Well, that is the latest with Lauren when
we come back. We got front page news and then
actor Wendell Pierce.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
Will be joining us.
Speaker 5 (28:26):
You know him from the wire, you know him from
suits and the host of others, and will kick with
him in a little bit. It's the Breakfast Club. Go Morning,
the Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Good morning, everybody.
Speaker 5 (28:36):
It's dj NV, just Hilarius Charlamagne the guy. We are
the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news now.
I just want to get some quick sports. The second
sex toy incident in the last seven days that a
WNBA plays someone through a sex toy on the court.
It almost hit a player as they were playing. Now,
this was during the Spox and Fever game. Kelsey Plumb
(28:58):
kicked it off the court. It happened again, and this
is like, what the fourth time.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Yeah, that's the fourth time that this happened, you know.
I you know, we had a conversation about this on
Brilliant Idiots, myself and Andrew Shows. We had just like
weeks ago, way before this even started happening, and we
were saying that, you know, Andrew had the idea of
maybe they should actually have signature scrap ons, right, like
put the people in the league who are part of
that community. Like imagine like the scrap on that's the
(29:22):
same color of the jerseys that they wear, things of
that nature, right, just just for you know, different merchandise.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
They can't sell it at the arena, Like what they're
gonna sell a jersey the strap Like you can't do that,
I mean none.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
And it don't got to be so old the arena.
This play can be so different. Places don't have to
be at the arena. So I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know why somebody would be throwing lime green
dial doos on the court at WNBA games, But you
know it is good marketing for the league.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Hello Morgan, it is kind of what time?
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Can I say one more thing?
Speaker 1 (29:53):
You you tell that story, but don't give us to
score the game.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Who won the game?
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Who won the game between the FEBNCH Balks last night
and be you just want the drama.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
The deal do won last night? No, the Sparks won
last night.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
But we don't get sports.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
We don't get the sports the playoffs on NBA or
w n b A. But I just you know, thought
this crazy and these people need to stop coming to
the place with dil dough, figure out how to pack.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Getting how they getting in with the tte.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
That's what I said.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
And that's how I know it's a woman bringing this
into the game, because if a woman was bringing that
into the game and they patting the woman down and
they feel that, you ain't gonna say nothing about it.
Speaker 4 (30:29):
If it was a guy, they'll be like, what is that?
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Like they be just wearing them? Yo, No, they don't
wear them. They probably have them in they backpack.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
They gotta check the backpack. Yah.
Speaker 6 (30:40):
Yo, ain't nobody coming. Ain't no woman coming in there
strapped up like that?
Speaker 5 (30:44):
Like no, alright, what's up, Morgan?
Speaker 6 (30:48):
I'm sorry, No, it's all good. I'm just sitting here imagining.
Can you imagine what?
Speaker 9 (30:53):
No, the Nike campaign behind it, It's like, just do it, yes,
just do it?
Speaker 6 (30:59):
All right, let me get into this front page news
all right.
Speaker 9 (31:02):
Speaking of games, President Trump is signing an executive order
creating a twenty twenty eight Olympics Task Force. It will
run the summer Olympic Games being held in LA. The
task force will handle some security, transportation, visa processing, in
addition to other duties related to the event. Let's recap
President Trump's remarks, in part from the White House about
(31:23):
the upcoming games.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
He spoke yesterday.
Speaker 21 (31:26):
Today, I will signed an executive order establishing the White
House Task Force on the twenty twenty eight Summer Olympics,
mobilizing the entire federal government to ensure the games are safe, seamless,
and historically successful.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
It's going to be amazing.
Speaker 21 (31:41):
America is a nation of champions, and in July twenty
twenty eight will show the world what America does best
in this when we're winning like we have never won before.
Speaker 5 (31:50):
This is bs right. They do all these things for
the Olympics, right. I heard they got a task for
it to make sure the wild fires don't disrupt the Olympics.
But my whole thing is this before just to care
about people. But they when the money coming in, they
got to protect that money, which is crazy.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Hey.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
Well, Trump went on to say that LA is a
great venue, which is crazy because, like to your point,
he's been very critical of California, and he says that
he's happy that he will be in office for the Olympics.
Speaker 8 (32:16):
Now.
Speaker 9 (32:16):
Casey Wasserman, the chair and president of the LA Olympics
released a statement thanking the President, thanking the President the
Trump administration for its support. LA Mayor Karen Bass and
California Governor Gavin Newsom have yet to comment on that
task force.
Speaker 6 (32:30):
But to your point, Env.
Speaker 9 (32:31):
Trump also says he's working to make sure the wildfires
don't disrupt the twenty twenty eight Summer Games in LA.
Speaker 6 (32:37):
He said Governor Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 9 (32:39):
Has to allow more water to flow into California from
the Pacific Northwest, and he called for the protection of
the Delta smelt, which is a fish to stop.
Speaker 6 (32:48):
Let's take a listen to President Trump's comments there.
Speaker 21 (32:51):
I've been fighting with him for a long time about
allowing the water cut to come down from the Pacific Northwest.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Essentially, they have a lot of water, they.
Speaker 21 (32:58):
Send it out into the Pacific Ocean in order to
protect the smelt.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
It's a little tiny fish.
Speaker 9 (33:04):
Of course, Trump again blamed efforts to protect the species
for the devastating Los Angeles wildfires in January.
Speaker 6 (33:12):
So, but you know, we look.
Speaker 9 (33:14):
Forward to those games coming up twenty twenty eight. It's
going to be interesting to see, especially considering that the
administration will be in charge or the Task Force per
SE will be in charge of visa processing, So that
should be.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
An interesting feed there.
Speaker 9 (33:27):
Meanwhile, in other news, the Clintons are being subpoenaed and
the congressional investigation into late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The House Oversight Committee issued subpoenas to six former attorneys general,
two former FBI directors, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton,
and former President Bill Clinton. The subpoena calls for the
(33:47):
DOJ to provide congress any Epstein files in its possession
with victims' names redacted, as well as communications related to
the case between former Biden administration officials and the department.
It marks the first major major move that comes as
many Congressional Republicans call for more transparency around the Epstein case.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
And that's interesting, you know, you know they're all meeting.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
I was watching CNN last night and they're all meeting
today at JD. Vance's Vice President Vice president residency and
they're having a conversation about how to handle the Epstein files.
It's like JD. Vance and I think the DOJ. I
forgot who else they said is gonna be at the meeting.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Interesting?
Speaker 9 (34:27):
Interesting, but yes, it does seem like there is some movement,
uh and without you know, essentially Congress being involved in
and forcing the hand. But that's your front page news.

But I would always go to there was a club
called Choices. I loved Choices and that dance that prompt
(38:30):
whatever that dance was. Man, I looked like the old
man in the club, That's what I was. And I
would go there and they thought I was a cop
because I would put on the suit. Choices was you
know it was no, it was I went in with
a suit because Choices was you know, you didn't you
(38:52):
didn't play in Choices. It was a real deal. It
was no TV criminals in there. It was the real deal.
Sometimes so I put on a suit and everybody thought
I was real. Five Oh you know, I said that
would keep me safe. Any club you have to go
through two metal detectives where you go in. You know,
it's an issue too too. So I stayed near the door.
(39:13):
But I loved Choices. I love Baltimore. Baltimore reminded me
of New Orleans, where I'm from, right has all the
same issues, that has all the beautiful stuff too, you know,
and to this day a city that I love invested
in and is a second home.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
When you think about twenty three years and a wire,
what did that mean to you?
Speaker 11 (39:36):
The wire was the Canarian the mind. It was the
thing that let us know that there was going to
be an American decline if we did not take care
of the greatest resource we have in this country, and
that's its people. And the thing that I'm proud of
as an artist is that's the role of artists, not
just entertainment. It's the place where we reflect on what
(39:58):
thoughts we are to the individual, where you think about
who you are, what you want to be your triumphs,
your failures. That's what art is, you know, and that's
what the show was. It was a place where we
reflect on who we are, what we're doing, our dysfunction,
hopefully decide what our values are, and then act on them.
I was very proud of what the Wire is, and
(40:19):
the Wire is. It's a classic. And what makes something
classic speaks to people then, speaks to people now, and
it will speak to people long after we're gone because
it speaks to that common humanity that we have. You'll
never pass a corner boy anymore without understanding that he
has a full life and there's a whole story behind him.
So I'm very proud of the Wire.
Speaker 17 (40:39):
You were early on in saying this right, that the
Wire is letting us know what's about to happen coming.
How did you know that then when you were doing it,
and like, you know, even in the earlier years, because
people always ask you about bringing the Wire back.
Speaker 19 (40:50):
Yeah, and you've been saying it for some time.
Speaker 11 (40:52):
And I always said, you know, the only thing I
tried to do. I tried to convince them to do
a prequel of the Wire because they always said, y'all
too old, too long in the tooth now, you know,
to be trying to do a sequel, but I said,
we should see how it comes up. And actually I
talked to Sam Samuel Jackson. Man, he was going to
(41:12):
play the folks that were controlling the towers before Stringer
and Avon. Yeah, Boxdale took over, right who they that
battle for that territory then. So David said, oh yeah, yeah,
that's a good idea. But he always said he was
never going to do it. So it's like a good book.
(41:33):
I knew that it was going to be effective then,
because you saw, you heard how it impacted people. I
remember one walk I had in Manhattan. I was walking
one time and this little old white lady with blue
hair stopped me on the east side. I said, you know,
I love the Wire, that's my show. A little further along,
this real sort of military square drug guide looked around
(41:54):
and said, you know, I love the Wire. You know,
I can't really, I can't talk to you right now
because I'm under cover. I'm on the job. Then I
got up to like wow, I got up to one
hundred and eighteenth Street whatever, and his brother came up
to me. Man, he was looking around just like the
other guys look around and said, yeah, man, I love
the wild. I can't talk to you right now, but
you know I'm hustling. I'm hustling right So I was
(42:15):
just like if a hustler and the little blue headed
old lady was still digging the same thing, we were
speaking to our humanity. So that's how I knew, That's
how I knew would make an impact.
Speaker 1 (42:24):
Then I feel like, I've never seen you do a
role that wasn't grounded in purpose.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Is that intentional?
Speaker 11 (42:33):
Well, you haven't seen all my stuff. I got some
books there. You know. You can't you can't do, you
can't do. I am celebrating my fortieth year in the
business man, and.
Speaker 4 (42:51):
Wow, congratulations, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 11 (42:54):
It's this month. Actually, yeah, you go back. Just I'm
fortunate that they bombed, because you know, just like work
gets you, work, it gets you a lot of times.
The business. You know, they want you to make chicken
salad out of chicken. So I got a lot of chicken,
you know, But but I try. I tried to. I
(43:19):
tried to pick my roles with purpose because you know,
I want to be able to look back at a
body of work and see, you know, a multitude of
different roles and uh, you know, tap into trying to
come to an understanding of what this journey is all about,
you know. And I was motivated to become an actor
by James O. Jones and Roscoe Lee Brown, Julius Harris. Uh,
(43:43):
you know, those men kind of set the bar high
for me. I like that diversity.
Speaker 5 (43:50):
We're still actor Wendell Pierce Lauren superman.
Speaker 17 (43:53):
Like you're playing an editor in chief of media outlet,
journalistic integrity and all those things are like the brain
Harry White, Yeah, Perry White, what you come with, But
like that's so on time for right now and all
the conversations in the media. So how much do you
bring into from real life? Like do you connect to
real life when you do things? Because I know somebody, yes,
back away.
Speaker 11 (44:12):
Especially with that, you know, and even if you don't
get to use it in the film, I knew that. Man,
newspapers right now are having a hard time all of
a sudden, how do you make it? And I said,
that's kind of like the reason Perry White is always
you know, pissed off. You know. It's like, man, how
am I as an editor going to keep this newspaper going,
(44:32):
and then the biggest story of the universe falls into
his lap, which is Superman, and he has an inkler
in that clock can Superman. I don't care what anybody says,
classes ain't fooling me. I do take take that into account.
You know that he's probably an editor who's struggling to
keep on top of things, especially with all these different
platforms out there that are killing him. You know that
(44:56):
are killing him is nobody reads the paper is anymore,
so everything's online, you know, and different platforms, uh like this.
So I used that to kind of develop Perry White.
And what's great about it is that's something that's developing
even more that thinking about doing a Daily Planet TV
(45:18):
show extension of that with actually it's around Jimmy about
Jimmy Olsen. So yeah, so you know that that I
always take that's in the development of character. Also, you spoke.
Speaker 7 (45:29):
Earlier about els Ben. How is it working with Steve A. Golbert?
Speaker 6 (45:35):
He announced that that project.
Speaker 11 (45:37):
Yeah, you know, it was it was already in the works,
so you know, it's art imitating life, life imitating art.
It was its great Stephen Colbert is fantastic. He's very
talented and that was something that we had already done
by the time the news happened.
Speaker 6 (45:59):
So because I know you joke the exd you for yeah,
we were.
Speaker 11 (46:01):
I was on the show and he said, oh, man,
I would love to come on the show. You know,
even as a corpse. I said, I work on that.
Speaker 8 (46:06):
You know.
Speaker 11 (46:07):
I worry, I did, you know, and it worked out.
So I'm not I'm not saying I'm going to take
all the credit, but I'm going to take the credit.
I got him on the show, and uh, and so
it was really cool and so whateverywhere else happened was
above my pay grade. I don't know what happened behind
the scenes, but it was cool.
Speaker 19 (46:27):
So Trump keep coming for us because of Charlotte.
Speaker 6 (46:29):
You can help us.
Speaker 11 (46:33):
Charlemagne, you handled that right, man.
Speaker 8 (46:35):
You know.
Speaker 11 (46:36):
You know, principle is principal. You know what I'm saying.
And actually you are exercising your right of real having
principal and that's uh, that's something that that is your
true north. So I appreciate that. I appreciate that, my brother.
And you know, when you think about you think about
(46:57):
all the other times and times like this, people have
given us the playbook of how to stand on business,
how to stand on principal. Think of Muhammad Ali. Man,
they marched down the street against Muhammad Ali right outside
this building, up and down Broadway, and nights before y'all
(47:18):
were born, when he was fighting. Boy, they hated Muhammad Ali.
On the day he died, you couldn't find anyone who
hated Muhammad Ali, right, everyone faint. Oh you know. I
always love Muhammad, but he stood on principal. I think
of him and the stand that you're taking. I think
of you know, Martin Luther King in Birmingham jail. I
(47:39):
think of black folks in the North Church, you know,
on New Year's Eve, waiting to get word about this
emancipation that we hear they're going to sign and give
us our freedom. Right. I say all of that to
say that you are a part of a long line
of people who stand on principle. So uh, and ultimately
(48:03):
we know that's that's the thing that will help and
that's the thing that will protect you ultimately because people
will recognize that.
Speaker 4 (48:12):
So man, thank you very much.
Speaker 11 (48:14):
You know that's what the American aesthetic is all about.
Speaker 17 (48:17):
Your work is so impactful, though in like what's happening
in media right now, is like anybody who is like,
you know, standing, like you said, tints down right, Like
the American Revolution series that you talk about that's on PBS, Yeah,
that's going to.
Speaker 11 (48:28):
Be our PBS. Ken Burns the American Revolution.
Speaker 17 (48:31):
Is that because I've been seeing so much stuff about
NPR and PBS with the Trump administration, like.
Speaker 11 (48:36):
Perfect example of representation being important. We're living in a
time where funding is being cut. The Corporation of Public
Broadcasting no longer exists. Just think about just think about that.
PBS and NPR are going to be gone. And that's
(48:57):
because in all coups, you take over the media first,
so you can control the propaganda. And a part of
it is silencing those you feel as though are going
to shed light on your criminality, right, And that's that's
the thing that is so important to make sure that
(49:19):
you get out there and something like that, the American
Revolutionary think of all the ken Burns, Civil War, the
Vietnam War. The reason when he did with country music,
you know, to show to show the roots of country
music and how impactful it was and how you know,
multi racial it was. You know, so all of that
(49:41):
doesn't have a platform, you know, and so you have
to fight against that. That's why it's important to support
organizations and institutions that we'll be able to get give
voice to the voiceless, give a stage, you know, an
opportunity to folks, you know. And that's why as an artist,
(50:04):
you understand, you know that this form is where we
reflect on who we are, who we hope to be.
But at the same time, as an advocate, I feel
as though the social justice movement of the twenty first
century is economic development. And that's why at this time
and in this moment, when there's so much funding pulling
(50:24):
back and opportunities that are taken away, it's important to
create those opportunities. And that's why right now I'm very
proud of something that we're announcing and launching. It's a
great segue into that, which is the Coalition for Legacy
Theaters of Color Fund, which I have been a part
(50:45):
of creating to give opportunities to those legacy theaters who
have been in the creative cultural economy of this city
of New York for over twenty five years, and also
those new companies who are giving that legacy a chance
to live on. And that's what this fund is going
to fund their productions and marketing. And it's a ten
(51:09):
million dollar commitment that we're announcing today the Coalition WOW,
the Coalition for Legacy Theaters of Color. It's a partnership
that I am giving my full throated endorsement to the
Caesars Palace Times Squared project, which is a hotel in
the Casino. I'm very honored that they are giving a
(51:35):
commitment to making sure that those cultural institutions like that
are sustained going into the future. So they listen to
my proposal of supporting companies like the Negro Ensemble Company
and the Billie Holliday Theater and the Black Spectrum Theater
(51:56):
and New Heritage Theater Group who have been around since
twenty five, thirty forty fifty years, even serving communities of
color with theater. They inspired me to be an actor
when I was a little boy reading about them in
New Orleans, right and then came up here and so
proud to now join with with jay Z and Rock
(52:19):
Nation and sl Green and Caesar's Gaming and Caesars Entertainment
to bring this coalition together, and that's why they are
building this project. But you know, you can do well
and do good and they understand that this project is
about making sure that the community has some input and
(52:40):
then they're servicing the community. And this is something that
I'm proud of. It's going to be right in the
middle of Broadway, and that in the Broadway community is
at the is the pinnacle of theater in New York
and the cultural economy, and so I'm proud to be
a part of that. I'm proud to launch this fund
(53:01):
today and give my full throated endorsement of Caesar's Palace.
Time Square were.
Speaker 3 (53:05):
Still kick it with actor Wendell Pierce charm.
Speaker 1 (53:09):
Is to fund the sole reason you wanted to support
the bid for a prognation, and that'sl Green Casar Palace.
Speaker 11 (53:15):
I wanted to support it. First of all, I'm an artist, right.
First of all, I'm an artist. And to see these
companies that should be who aren't getting the attention they deserve,
who are underfunded in my eyes, who should who have
given and created a legacy that has to be sustained.
That was the most important thing to me as an advocate.
(53:36):
You know, I'm from New Orleans. Twenty years ago we
were destroyed by Katrina, and the one thing I learned
is the social justice movement for the twenty first century
is economic development and to that's the way you build sustainability.
That's why how you protect communities on all And one
of the reasons I support this is because this is
clearly an economic engine that's going to develop Times Square,
(54:00):
that's going to bring multitudes of jobs. It's going to
have a halo effect of affecting all the businesses around
Time Square. And at the same time, think of all
the people that come in that's going to be coming
to be a part of Caesars and to stay at
the hotel and go to the casino. That's more of
an influx of people who are coming to Broadway, you know,
(54:22):
almost it's projected to be almost you know, eight hundred
thousand more people who are going to be coming to Broadway. Now,
take these companies who never get the attention, who never
get the real quality marketing that this is going to present.
There's sixty five million people who are part of this
rewards program that they're going to have access to. There's
going to be childcare, so you know, the Development has
(54:44):
said we're going to really put our belief into action
childcare for Broadway workers. There's going to be a debt relief,
student debt relief, medical debt relief, you know, health relief,
and I think that's important. That's I'm a union man,
so my union Actors Equity is supporting it Local eight
(55:05):
or two, which is a musicians union. So this is
now you see a part of me as a producer.
You know, I'm a Tony Award winning producer. So I
understand here's an opportunity where art meets commerce, and so
we understand the art. That's the thing that everyone shares.
We have a vision of how art can impact community.
(55:27):
We may have differences on how we build that economic
engine and the commerce that will support that, but we
have commonality there the economic engine that a project like
this brings. I've seen it in New Orleans Post Katrina.
I've seen this particular company, Caesars in New Orleans and
how people have the same concerns about whether or not
(55:49):
we should have this casino right in the French Quarter.
You know, this is the heart of our culture and
it has been more than beneficial. It has developed the
French Quarter. It has brought jobs there, it has brought
more visitors there. So this is for me an economic engine,
and I feel as though the twenty first century social
(56:11):
justice movement starts with it economic development, and especially in
a time when so much is being cut back, we
have to exercise our right of self determination. So I
challenge the partnership to say, I'm an artist, these are
the companies that I want to support, and if you
want to reach out to the community, I ask you
to support them too. And they said, we're willing to
(56:33):
do that.
Speaker 4 (56:34):
Man, blame Rock Nation for all of that.
Speaker 1 (56:36):
And as you said earlier, when though, that's why representation
is important. Because you have a company like Rock Nation
who cares about the communities like Manhattan Plaza in that area.
Speaker 4 (56:45):
They care about the folks on Broadway.
Speaker 1 (56:47):
They listen to people like yourself, and they brought something
to the table to benefit those people.
Speaker 11 (56:52):
Yeah, man, listen, you talk about Manhattan Plaza. There's a
fifteen million dollar commitment there. You know, there's twenty million
dollars going towards kids and families and seniors being able
to afford the tickets of Broadway. They're subsidizing ticket purchases
like that. So I tell people all the time, never
lose the ability to have your concerns and your questions.
(57:15):
Never lose the ability to be offended. And so challenge
yourself and challenge anyone who wants to come and do
a development like Caesars in Times Square and say this
is what I expect. And they've heard that, and they're
answering that security, sanitation, infrastructure around it, jobs in that area,
(57:36):
the development of what the engine will bring to the table.
They are showing you the impact that it can have,
the economic engine, and that's why I feel comfortable doing it.
I've seen it done with this particular company in New Orleans.
I know how important it is that a company like
the Negro Ensemble Company is started by Douglas Turner Ward
(57:58):
and Robert Hook and so many people. The last time
I saw them in the theater that they had was
when I was in school in like nineteen eighty two.
It was a second production of play called a Soldier's
Play and a young actor in it, Denzel Washington. Adolph
(58:19):
Caesar was playing the sergeant. And they haven't had a
play on Broadway since Ceremonies in Dark Old Men, which
is like nineteen seventy one. It's because they haven't had
the opportunity of marketing and funding. So this is a chance.
I wanted to bring an infusion of sustainability to them
(58:43):
because they should have their place at the pinnacle of
cultural economy in New York. And that's and that's what
this fund is all about, the coalition of Legacy Theaters
of Color, and that's what this fund is going to
be built on, and that's what we're going to be
building to make sure that they get the recognition, have
(59:06):
the sustainability, and have the marketing and funding uh that
is needed. And that's the commitment that the Caesars Partnership
is bringing, and I'm partnering with them to make sure
that it's sustainable.
Speaker 4 (59:19):
Mister Windell Pias, thank you man.
Speaker 1 (59:21):
Thank you for your wisdom, thank you for your insight,
thank you for your art, thank you for your service
to our people. Thank you for the coalition of Legacy
Theaters of Color. Thank you, just just thank.
Speaker 11 (59:31):
You, brother, Thank you man. I am so honored to
be here at the Breakfast Club. It really is just
a smile on my face. Smile on my face. I
got some cachet now.
Speaker 6 (59:41):
As soon as they said you like.
Speaker 11 (59:46):
Baltimore in the house, man, I love Baltimore. I love Baltimore.
Thank you for the.
Speaker 4 (59:51):
Breakfast thank you, it's Windell Peers, It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 3 (59:54):
Everybody's j n V Jess Hilary.
Speaker 19 (59:58):
First of all, I've got a point, they see it.
Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
Speaker 6 (01:00:01):
Yes, she gets something.
Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
Somebody that knows, somebody detail.
Speaker 6 (01:00:09):
I'm a home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 4 (01:00:12):
She'd be having the latest on the lawn, The latest
with Lauren la Rossa. Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you
have details. Sometimes you have a.
Speaker 11 (01:00:20):
Little bit of everything.
Speaker 3 (01:00:21):
It's the latest on the Breakfast Club talk.
Speaker 17 (01:00:26):
All right, So there are reports right now the Sun
did it exclusive that Howard Stern's show will be it
is to be canceled allegedly after twenty years on Serious XM,
as his one hundred million dollar contract comes to an end.
Speaker 19 (01:00:42):
Now here's that.
Speaker 4 (01:00:44):
Headline is crazy, by the way, but.
Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
That that Howard Stern's getting canceled, Like, that's not that's
not the accurate He's not, that's not the accurate story.
Speaker 4 (01:00:54):
But continue, Lauren.
Speaker 17 (01:00:55):
Yes, Now let's get into the story so we can
get into what they actually mean by that. So basically,
the conversation that's happening right now because of the Sun
in this article is that Howard Stern's show may not
be returning only because he is at the end of
his five year deal and the amount of money, like
literally in the article they say, the amount of money
(01:01:16):
that he would want to renew a contract with Serious,
the Serious that won't have it to give it to him.
So in the article, one of the exserts or quote
says Stern's contract is up in the fall, and while
Sious is planning to make him an offer, they don't
intend him to take it.
Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
They also say that you imagine making You're making so
much money that the company knows, like, look, we can't
afford to pay him that anymore. Are afford to pay
him anything more? So we know we're going to offer
him he's not gonna take right.
Speaker 17 (01:01:45):
And then so another quote from the article says Serious
and Stern are never going to meet on the money
he is going to want. Is no longer worth the investment. Now,
I don't think that it's no longer worth the investment.
I think like we just said that they can't afford
to do it. And then they mentioned Stephen quote and
they say, after you saw what happened with Stephen Colbert,
it is likely they just can't afford to keep him
going because there have been a conversation about you know,
(01:02:06):
the CBS mentioned finances when Colbert Show was announced to
be canceled coming up in May, Howard Star.
Speaker 3 (01:02:13):
Was making one hundred million dollars a year.
Speaker 5 (01:02:15):
I think he worked with two or three days in
a year, two or three days a week and didn't
work in the summer. Wow, that was amazing double bomb
for Howard Stern man.
Speaker 1 (01:02:24):
But I mean he was worth it though, because I
mean he put serious side of Like Radio on the map,
you know, and they gave him a whole bunch of
stocks twenty years ago.
Speaker 4 (01:02:32):
Yeah, like he did. You probably wouldn't even know.
Speaker 1 (01:02:33):
Serious Sided like Radio wouldn't have half of the success
it's probably had if it wasn't for Howerstern.
Speaker 17 (01:02:38):
Now, So in thinking of what's next in case this
is true, because Howard Stern Norse Sirious have confirmed any
of these reports, I did reach out to Serious I
was I'm tuning into Howard Stern It's Morning in between
breaks to see if he'll address it at all, but
nothing official yet.
Speaker 19 (01:02:54):
If this does happen.
Speaker 17 (01:02:55):
There is another mention in this article that what will
likely happen is that Serious will cut some sort of
deal with Howard Stern to keep his catalog upon his exit,
which I think is also fire as well.
Speaker 19 (01:03:05):
And then, of course, when this story broke.
Speaker 17 (01:03:07):
And people started having conversation about it, the first thing
that they said was, you know, Howard Stern is very
vocal about how he feel about Donald Trump.
Speaker 6 (01:03:13):
He's you know, he's very vocal about everything. But they
say that Howard.
Speaker 17 (01:03:17):
There's another source in this article that says that Howard
Stern's political leanings are also not working in his favorite
The quote is, if Serious isn't going to give Stern
a offer, I don't think it would have anything to
do with his ratings. It's more likely everything to do
with his political with this political climate. But isn't it
different because he's on Serious, which is like digital right,
Like that's completely different than him.
Speaker 3 (01:03:37):
Being on Serious is probably in every new car that's
that's made now.
Speaker 19 (01:03:43):
But I'm saying, like his who does he have to
answer to? Isn't it different from him?
Speaker 3 (01:03:47):
There's no sponsorships and things like that, just subscriptions. I'm
asking you, I think I political.
Speaker 5 (01:03:53):
Leaning, I don't. I don't know if he has I
know they got subscription. It's a debscription based I think
he has advatage. I think his show actually has avatars.
Speaker 4 (01:04:01):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:04:02):
I think so.
Speaker 11 (01:04:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:04:04):
But I knew though that he makes one hundred million
dollars a year, So it's probably just financial. I mean,
come on, look at the economic climate that we're in, right,
So I mean, if they, like they said, they're going
to make him an offer, but it's going to be
something decreased from one hundred million dollars a year, and
he might not be worth his while to want to
do it. Plus he's seventy one years old.
Speaker 19 (01:04:23):
If I was at this point, I would go and
just live the rest of my good life.
Speaker 4 (01:04:27):
Yeah, he might just want to kick his feet up somewhere.
Who knows.
Speaker 5 (01:04:30):
There was there was a rumor when I when I
worked there, that he would Thursday after his show, he
would fly to the Hampton's where he at his house,
and he would stay there Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday month
and then fly back. And I just thought that was
so dope. I was like, man, that's just living life.
He would stay with his family for the five days.
Speaker 3 (01:04:45):
I just thought that was amazing.
Speaker 8 (01:04:46):
That is dope.
Speaker 1 (01:04:47):
And by the way, this is just a rumor. Everybody
should be wrong like he might. You never know, he
might do a new deal. Still do his two days
a week, sell his catalog like he been doing, and
kick his feet up. Still he's living a great life.
I thank you to all that from doing radio. Drop
a bomb for Howard Stern. I was turn one at life. Yes,
a long time, a long time ago. By the way,
(01:05:09):
he's already home. He's been home.
Speaker 13 (01:05:12):
Well.
Speaker 17 (01:05:13):
Another news, speaking of shows and cancelations and conversations, there's
another reported. Remember we talked about Gael King and Trump,
making highlight of the fact that there's a report that
her CBS Morning's career maybe in murky waters. Well, TMC
got her out yesterday responding to Trump. It was brief,
but that's like a listener what she said.
Speaker 6 (01:05:32):
Mis King, what was your reaction to seeing what Trump
said last night?
Speaker 19 (01:05:36):
So I'm sorry he feels that way.
Speaker 8 (01:05:40):
What I'm just gonna do.
Speaker 13 (01:05:42):
I like my job, continue to do a good job.
Speaker 19 (01:05:45):
There's a long list of people.
Speaker 8 (01:05:48):
Look, I'm I'm in a group now with Bruce Springsteen,
Taylor Swift, Stephen Colbert.
Speaker 3 (01:05:55):
I'm sorry he feels that way.
Speaker 19 (01:05:57):
Yeah, she's talking about the list of people that you
know takes his shots up.
Speaker 3 (01:06:01):
Leading for Charlaman. Oh, he just got to that list.
Speaker 4 (01:06:05):
Gail just named all the Gail named all the white people,
all right, and she.
Speaker 19 (01:06:09):
Didn't see you all on colors on your face. And
she still didn't see.
Speaker 1 (01:06:15):
By the way, she didn't even see her best friend
Oprah Our Beyonce, the vice president.
Speaker 4 (01:06:20):
So once again she didn't see the black.
Speaker 19 (01:06:21):
People speaking of you know.
Speaker 4 (01:06:23):
But you know what's crazy though, Hold on the fact.
Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
We are having conversations about media personalities potentially losing their
job because they are vocal against Donald Trump. Let y'all
know that we are no longer in the democracy. In
the fact that these conversations are the fact that these
conversations are even happening and people are normalizing these conversations.
Let you know that the authoritarian strategy that this administration
(01:06:47):
has implemented is absolutely working in.
Speaker 17 (01:06:50):
Yeah, well, we'll be talking about Beyonce in the next
hour because speaking of personalities, Megan and Kelly had some
things to say about Beyonce.
Speaker 19 (01:06:57):
Crazy, yeah, and because we're gonna get into it.
Speaker 3 (01:07:00):
Okay, all right, we'll do that now. I show the
man who giving a donkey two.
Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
Man for after the hour.
Speaker 1 (01:07:05):
We need a man named Peter Alt to come to
the front of the congregation. We all have to learn
to be patient with children, but he definitely does. We'll
discuss all right.
Speaker 5 (01:07:13):
We'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Cloak, Good morning,
the Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.
Speaker 6 (01:07:23):
Damn the he hoggin.
Speaker 11 (01:07:26):
It's start for donkey.
Speaker 8 (01:07:28):
I mean trying to beat donkey today.
Speaker 10 (01:07:30):
No more.
Speaker 4 (01:07:30):
They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
not making these people do these.
Speaker 6 (01:07:33):
Days called donkey of the day, and it really caught
me off guard. Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey of
the day today?
Speaker 1 (01:07:43):
Well, jess hilarious, Donkey of today for Wednesday August sixth,
It is Wednesday August six Right, I'll be getting my
day trong.
Speaker 4 (01:07:48):
Let me make sure it is Wednesday August sixth.
Speaker 1 (01:07:51):
But donkey today for Wednesday August sixth goes to a
Long Island police officer named Peter Alt. Peter Alt has
been script of his duties, and rightfully so, because I
don't understand public services who simply can't do right by
the public. Okay, firefighters, police officers. When we call you
for assistance, we want you to protect us and serve us. Now, firefighters,
correct me if I'm wrong, but I think your model
(01:08:12):
is always ready. And another one I saw is to
be useful is our wish. Those are great models, but
we need you to live up to those models always.
And Peter aught from the video, I saw.
Speaker 4 (01:08:23):
You did not do that. Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:08:24):
See, there was a ten year old girl and according
to her grandmother, the grandmother's daughter who I'm assuming with
the child's mother, called the police on her after she
had taken away the child's phone, which caused the kid
to flip out, okay, cause it to become emotionally discressed.
Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
Let's go to NBC for New York for the report.
Speaker 19 (01:08:40):
Polase, well, we spoke with.
Speaker 22 (01:08:41):
The grandmother of this ten year old. The grandma wasn't
home at the time when this happened, but she said
that her granddaughter was having an episode. She had become
enraged because her mother had taken away her phone as punishment.
The grandmother was completely stunned to watch this video to
see how this first responder, now identified as a fire chief,
(01:09:03):
treated her granddaughter. Explatives directed at a ten year old
girl on a stretcher, recorded by a witness alarmed by
a first responder's language, shake him out. That first responder
(01:09:23):
identified as North Babylon Volunteer Fire Company Chief Peter Alt.
Speaker 3 (01:09:28):
Maybe it was a blessing.
Speaker 6 (01:09:29):
I wasn't that because I probably would have jumped all
over the sky.
Speaker 22 (01:09:33):
The girl's grandma wasn't home when this happened, She says
her daughter called police for help when the girl became
enraged and out of control. After viewing the video, the
department says Alt has been relieved of his duties while
they investigate calling the conduct.
Speaker 1 (01:09:50):
I'm not judging, okay, but why would you ever call
the police or firefighters.
Speaker 4 (01:09:56):
Because you're a ten year old is emotionally discressed?
Speaker 1 (01:09:58):
Trust me, I overstated, and having an emotionally discressed child,
My nine year old can go from zero to one
hundred over the smallest of things. Okay, You're supposed to
threaten them, all right with the authorities, not actually call them. Okay,
especially when you're in a public place and them kids
getting to get to carrying on, you gotta say ay now,
then people gonna come get us if you don't stop
all that hollering. Knowing dann Well you are heard on't
(01:10:18):
know who them people is. My point is, if you
have an emotionally discressed child, there are other ways to
handle them than by calling authorities. Okay, they got behavioral
therapy for kids starting as early as four years old.
I know those things cost money, but a lot of
places have the sliding and scale fees. You know, you
can go to your local counseling centers. You can check
with university health clinics. There's crisis hotlines you can call.
(01:10:41):
I'm just saying calling the authorities on your ten year
old emotionally discressed child is wowd okay, But nonetheless, the
first response is pulled up and after putting the girl
on what looks like a scratcher. You heard one of
the first responders, Peter Alt, he started talking to this
young girl crazy. Can we can we hear some of that?
(01:11:09):
The hell Jesus Christ? He said, shut the f up.
It's like this with you every f and week. And
then the young girl goes, I don't want to go.
I want to go back home. Man firefighters a day
to put out fires. Okay, as far as I know,
they aren't there to be. Therapists are counselors, which is
(01:11:29):
you know why I completely agree with mental health professionals,
behavioral therapists being sent out with the police officers and
firefighters to prevent things like this. Okay, this is one
of the things I was talking about on my view
with Lard Trump the other day. That firefighter Peter Awt.
He sounded emotionally discressed. He sounded like he's got some
other things going on in his life and he's projecting
whatever pain, whatever hurt he's feeling onto that little girl.
(01:11:52):
Any of us with kids know, you got to be
present and you have to take a deep breath sometimes
before you react, because these kids will try every bit
of patience you got.
Speaker 4 (01:12:00):
Okay, you know, and I know Peter Aught.
Speaker 1 (01:12:03):
Isn't some type of mental health professional, but you gotta
have some type of empathy. All right, you're an adult
and the kid is ten. Okay, the girl's family called
for help to calm the child down. I don't know
why they would call y'all, but telling the kid to
shut the f up. It's like this with you every
f and week. That lets me know he knows this
child or has had experiences with this child. If this
child is having breakdowns every week, and she needs some
(01:12:25):
form of behavioral therapy. Okay, I did one Google search
and AI gave me several options for free or low
cost child therapy services. You know, in the Long Island area,
you got the Nassau County Mental Health Services, you got
Suffolx County Mental Health Services, community mental health centers. By
the way, she's ten, Where the school counsel is at,
where the school psychologists. Okay, I know it's summertime, but
(01:12:45):
damn all right, listen, man, The moral of the story is,
let's be patient with kids. Okay, it's tough, I know,
but we are adults, they are kids. Try to find
out a reason for the child's behavior. Okay, if your
child is acting out. If a child is acting out,
is probably because they're going through something. Get them some
professional help. Okay, Peter Aught, you're volunteer firefighter.
Speaker 4 (01:13:06):
You clearly not built for this.
Speaker 1 (01:13:08):
Because I'm listening to you talk to this young girl
and I'm realizing you need professional help your damn self.
Speaker 4 (01:13:14):
Please give Peter Alt the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons.
Speaker 3 (01:13:17):
Oh no, you are the dog.
Speaker 15 (01:13:22):
The.
Speaker 3 (01:13:26):
Dog all the day, all right.
Speaker 1 (01:13:36):
Also, Also, why the other adults letting him talk like
that told him shut the f up. Somebody should have
told him shut the f up for telling the little
girl shut the f up?
Speaker 6 (01:13:45):
And what do you mean they do this for her
every week, like it's the same thing with you every week?
What they mean?
Speaker 4 (01:13:50):
What do you mean exactly?
Speaker 1 (01:13:52):
Because I'm looking at the video, there's plenty of adults there.
Speaker 4 (01:13:56):
Why nobody else grown ain't tell him to shut the
hell up?
Speaker 7 (01:13:59):
This girl is only ten, Like like somebody who don't
know the story, they would think that's her father or something.
Speaker 11 (01:14:05):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 7 (01:14:06):
Yeah, because that sounds like like a parent talking to
their child a little bit, you know what I mean.
But the fact that he's not even her parent or
related to her anything, it's just weird. It's like he
don't even care about what she's going through.
Speaker 5 (01:14:19):
That's right, stupid. All right, well, thank you for that, donkey.
Today's show the mine, Yes indeed.
Speaker 19 (01:14:26):
Oh oh all right, So look.
Speaker 7 (01:14:30):
The topic right, because we've been fishing for a topic,
but the topic should be what is one of the
craziest things you've done to flex?
Speaker 10 (01:14:38):
Right?
Speaker 6 (01:14:39):
Because it was a video that just hit shave and.
Speaker 7 (01:14:46):
Right, somebody tried to act like they was going outside
to get their dogs, you know, their dogs, but showing
their house never showed the dogs.
Speaker 3 (01:14:54):
It was only a landscape of the house.
Speaker 19 (01:14:56):
He got to the dogs. Eventually the dogs were in
their own house.
Speaker 5 (01:14:58):
Basically the dogs.
Speaker 7 (01:14:59):
Yeah, the dogs was in there, two little apartments, but
the dogs didn't even care.
Speaker 17 (01:15:04):
We got audio of dj MV. This is the man
that we're talking about who hit the shaved room.
Speaker 6 (01:15:10):
It was, but it was definitely envy.
Speaker 5 (01:15:11):
Everybody want a dog until it's this type of weather
like this is ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (01:15:15):
There should be no reason where nobody in this house
wants to help you.
Speaker 5 (01:15:19):
Everybody wants a dog until this right here happens.
Speaker 4 (01:15:23):
Right nobody, let's look at us. That's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (01:15:27):
Out here.
Speaker 4 (01:15:28):
You have some getting soaked.
Speaker 3 (01:15:29):
I couldn't get it, umbrella about blas.
Speaker 5 (01:15:32):
I gotta carry both of these dogs, which makes no
god damn sense.
Speaker 3 (01:15:36):
So, like I said, I'm coming.
Speaker 5 (01:15:38):
Everybody wants a dog, got a practice, let's stay in
here for us.
Speaker 3 (01:15:43):
Well no, he ran out. Let me describe what happened.
Speaker 4 (01:15:47):
So that sound like a point of.
Speaker 17 (01:15:52):
Everybody living a cancer until you got that possibility and
all that. My friend was like, what brother of Jersey
he living. Laura, I don't look like that where you live,
I said, I don't have DJ Evey money.
Speaker 3 (01:16:01):
That's different.
Speaker 11 (01:16:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:16:02):
So basically he was acting like he was walking his
dogs when he.
Speaker 7 (01:16:05):
Was showing he was acting like he was trying to
go save the dogs from the rain, which dogs love.
And by the way, because they ran around, they thought
it was a game of catching go right, So he
was trying to show everybody that basically that he live
in a castle, but he tried to make a same
like he was going out there to get the dogs
because somebody.
Speaker 6 (01:16:21):
Will help him bring the dogs back.
Speaker 5 (01:16:23):
And if you follow me on my TikTok, I put
my you know I bought two puppies and I showed
my interaction with his puppies and raising these puppies and
training these puppies, and my kids wanted puppies. And what
I was saying in that video is everybody likes the
puppies until the weather gets disgusted.
Speaker 3 (01:16:38):
And I got to do it on my own.
Speaker 5 (01:16:40):
That's what I was saying with the dogs, and same
thing on a TikTok, I promote my car show and
bust down how it is to do a car show
and planning a car show in August sixteenth, which is
next way.
Speaker 13 (01:16:49):
And when you do them car.
Speaker 17 (01:16:50):
Show videos, you switched cards per video per day the
video matched the card the other day you saw the ten.
You saw that video rec with the ten in the
ten card Behind flexing, we got Carli.
Speaker 3 (01:17:03):
That was ivory. That was an ivory color.
Speaker 7 (01:17:05):
But the crazy thing is if you were so focused
on the dogs, why the camera wasn't turned around?
Speaker 6 (01:17:10):
The dogs were on the grass envy it was it
was south.
Speaker 3 (01:17:13):
What is the concident you guys want to ask, was.
Speaker 7 (01:17:15):
The craziest way you've ever flexed? The craziest thing you've
done to flex was?
Speaker 3 (01:17:20):
I wasn't flexing. I was showing you know what? Eight
hundred flex Washington five to one.
Speaker 19 (01:17:26):
Where's been a homie to pull out the money when
the girls come around?
Speaker 5 (01:17:29):
Like the house, I'm not talking to us. The breakfast
club in the morning, the breakfast club.
Speaker 23 (01:17:41):

five eight five, one oh five to one This morning.
They had been calling me flex Washington, Flexington and a
host of others.
Speaker 7 (01:18:04):
And why is this just because you made a video
the other day that hit the shave room that made
it seem like you was trying to go save your
dogs from the rain.
Speaker 6 (01:18:12):
I don't know who the hell think dogs got to
be saved from the rain.
Speaker 7 (01:18:15):
But you had the video a selfie style right to
show the big castle that you live in in the
back instead of showing the dogs. The objective was to
show you rescuing the dogs from the rain. I finally
got them from their one bedroom apartment.
Speaker 3 (01:18:28):
Bad training the dog.
Speaker 7 (01:18:31):
You wanted us to even see how big the cages,
but he stood in the cage and DJV is not
not sure I put that cage together.
Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
I got it from track to supply.
Speaker 19 (01:18:38):
Think about that you were standing in the.
Speaker 5 (01:18:40):
Cave and how much is I put them together myself
from track to supply, And I was showing the process.
I've talked about these two puppies that my kids and
family wanted. We got these dogs, and now nobody helps
me with these dogs. I have to do it every
day and train these dogs.
Speaker 19 (01:18:54):
Those are some big puppies.
Speaker 3 (01:18:56):
Imagine they were born on March.
Speaker 1 (01:18:58):
Now, imagine a plane flying over that house and seeing
you in that cage and thinking to themselves, oh.

to show people that when when your kids say they
want dogs, just know that it's all on you get
on another level.
Speaker 7 (01:19:22):
You could have came in here and got it off
your chest about that. You did not have to make
a selfie style video to show your house in the

And you know what I mean.
Speaker 16 (01:22:53):
I shouldn't have did that, and I had to pretty
much keep ordering shots until I direct deposit here Dan,
you know what I mean. And I feel like that's
the wildest thing I've ever done, because I was sitting
there for additional hour and a half.
Speaker 17 (01:23:06):
Bro, what you would have did it deposit? It was
like later like your bank, you know what I mean?
Sometimes to be off like what you would.
Speaker 8 (01:23:13):
Have done might even hold you.
Speaker 16 (01:23:15):
We was in a karaoke bar and I can sing.
Speaker 8 (01:23:16):
I would have distracted them.
Speaker 16 (01:23:20):
Word I would have you know what I mean? They
called me rooms in the hood. I might even gonna
lie to you.
Speaker 3 (01:23:26):
Like I'm being bullied today by Jess and Lauren.
Speaker 1 (01:23:31):
I was.
Speaker 3 (01:23:32):
I was minding my business the other day talking to
my TikTok.
Speaker 4 (01:23:35):
You posted a public video. That's criticism, yep.
Speaker 5 (01:23:41):
And I ain't talking about my dogs that I just
I'm raising that I got them as puppies. They were
born on March Knife and I was showing you know,
everybody out there, you know your kids want dog, your
wife want a dog, and then when it's time to
raise these dogs, or rains or the weather's nice, nobody
wants to help. And I was showing me running to
get the dogs from outside bringing them inside, and just
I was flexing, but I was.
Speaker 6 (01:24:00):
Because the dogs was having the time of their life.
Speaker 1 (01:24:02):
Honey.
Speaker 7 (01:24:02):
They was not trying to be rescued. It wasn't at
the door clawing and scraping and scratch and daddy trying to.
Speaker 6 (01:24:07):
Get in the heaven. They will literally out there living
their lives.
Speaker 7 (01:24:10):
And this man selfie style recorded a video to show
the castle that he and his family lives in.
Speaker 3 (01:24:15):
That is that is not true. I was just showing
me raising my dogs. Hello, who's this way?
Speaker 8 (01:24:21):
This is Jamee Man from the seven five to seven?
Speaker 6 (01:24:23):
What's up? James? What's the craziest thing you've done? To flex?
Speaker 8 (01:24:27):
So listening? Want me that be doing a flex? Sam?
I'm married and I got a white sweat. I play
a role for my homeboys to help them. Flex in
front of us showed you that they're trying to pull.
So what what what we do is whenever they get
around some girls they're text men and be like, bro,
just call me real quick and ask the ball like
(01:24:48):
three thousand dollars. They'll put me on speakerphone my caller like, yo, man,
I I'm messed up right now. I need probably like
three bands from you. Can you cash out to me
real quick? And they in front of the shorty is
why they're doing it. So as soon as the girl said,
I know it ain't right and and these are probably
not the girls they need to be with. But for
some reason, whenever those girls seeing me ask for that
(01:25:11):
bread to ball like it's a green light from my
home boy and everything, no.
Speaker 6 (01:25:17):
Shame, but for three k they going like that's three
hundred thousand. Hello said three.
Speaker 4 (01:25:22):
Thousand, Good morning.
Speaker 1 (01:25:24):
I thought three thousand ain't No three hundred three thousand,
three thousand. You can't even cash up? No, three hundred
thousand was three cash up? Three hundred thousand, three thousand.
I need to figure what's the craziest thing you did?
The flex bro firsot ofball.
Speaker 8 (01:25:39):
I watched that video by j and I was looking
for the dogs and he was unintentional a lot of
landscape exactly.
Speaker 3 (01:25:46):
You saw the football field that I was running, thank you,
I was running before.
Speaker 8 (01:25:51):
I was like, what's your thoughts for my biggest flex
was I'm unintentional as well. I gained so much weight
and then enjoyed this program called Elite Technique and lost
over one hundred and ten that I made the page
and down low key when uh one time, well, I
guess the one time things viral went for a second
(01:26:12):
and that was a suck for me.
Speaker 4 (01:26:13):
I respect that though. See that's a real flex. That
losing one hundred pounds and getting in shape. That's the dope.
That's a dope flex. That's a good flex.
Speaker 6 (01:26:20):
That is that is that's not crazy, that's actually admirable.
Speaker 4 (01:26:24):
That's great.
Speaker 1 (01:26:25):
Yeah, yeah, what's going to be that's actually, by the way,
that's actually real inspiration. You know, like you know how
you see like Meek Mill used to always post tough
and be like this is for inspirational purposes only that
material stuff ain't inspiring.
Speaker 4 (01:26:37):
Nobody inspire somebody to rob you. But you show somebody.
Speaker 19 (01:26:44):
Inspire, it'd be like okay, wowle all this off of
something he loved to do.
Speaker 5 (01:26:49):
Like the biggest inspiration I think when somebody comes from
like Meek Mill comes and he works and he does
it the right way, and he shows the things that
he was able to purchase and buy, whether it's a home,
whether it was a car or.
Speaker 3 (01:26:59):
A home force or whatever, maybe is inspiration.
Speaker 1 (01:27:02):
Like you don't think that, Yeah, you don't think hold on,
you don't think that inspires nobody to be like, yeah,
we're gonna rob him when we see himtraight.
Speaker 5 (01:27:08):
I mean anybody everybody say some people are I mean people,
but he didn't. He did it for the kids that say,
you know what, I can get.
Speaker 11 (01:27:16):
Out and do it the right way.
Speaker 4 (01:27:17):
Just like just like I talk about, I get it.
Speaker 5 (01:27:19):
Clue was my inspiration to show that he was able
to get out of Queens the right way and do
it and he was able to show me different of
DJing so for me to get it.
Speaker 1 (01:27:28):
But the act like but the haters, I get it.
But the act like, but the act like you're not
exciting the wolves too?
Speaker 4 (01:27:33):
Is crazy?
Speaker 3 (01:27:34):
Yeah, I mean you're gonna excite the wolves regardless of
whatever you do, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (01:27:37):
But I will say that people like Meek Mill, people
like Hove growing up, people like a clue for myself,
like they were inspirations because you've seen where they came from,
how they did it, they did it the right way,
and they were able to obtain the things that they wanted.
Speaker 3 (01:27:49):
That is inspiration for sure.
Speaker 1 (01:27:51):
Yes, But we also have to be honest and say
that showing off on social media does make you a
target as well. It does, and a lot of y'all
be getting Yeah, and a lot of y'all be getting
robbed for stuff you don't even know.
Speaker 5 (01:28:02):
Yeah, that is true too, but yeah, but it is
an inspiration. And you know they all hate is regardless
what you do. But there's a lot of people out
there with kids that even even you know, we've inspired
a lot of people to do things that you know,
for myself, I know I inspired a bunch of people
of DJ.
Speaker 3 (01:28:16):
I know you guys inspired a bunch of people.
Speaker 5 (01:28:18):
I'm sure you inspired a bunch of people from from
South Carolina where you're home, Like, damn this he came
from the same.
Speaker 3 (01:28:23):
Place, so I'm from now with.
Speaker 17 (01:28:25):
Your wife Charlotte Magne, with the own crystal crystal that
made it in my chest. And somebody was like, Charlemagne
got bread just because people see, but it's inspired.
Speaker 4 (01:28:36):
Won't stop with the line.
Speaker 7 (01:28:38):
Stop with the line, because you're just saying people see
you invested in these businesses and doesn't inspire them.
Speaker 19 (01:28:44):
You might not stand in front of a car that
matches your shirt.
Speaker 4 (01:28:52):
That's stupid, but that's dope.
Speaker 19 (01:28:54):
I mean, you know they be matching. Had to tell him, clue,
all of them.
Speaker 7 (01:28:58):
It's good for some people inspire to be like these people,
and some people doing spot inspire to rob these people.
Because I'm telling you, Jerome, the house that my baby father,
it was a house I was living in a couple
of years ago, and Rome asked me, can he come
to stay tonight? And y'all know we ain't on that
type of time, so I was like, all right, yeah, cool,
we probably gotta put out one of his girls.
Speaker 6 (01:29:16):
So I was like, all right, cool, we come over there.
Speaker 7 (01:29:17):
And the next morning I wake up, he is doing
a selfie video just like Envy was in the bat
and he was no, he wasn't chasing no dogs. He
was chasing poon poon And he was like, yeah, I'm
just in my new spot and all that, and then
I come on my friend and he's like, yo.
Speaker 6 (01:29:34):
I'm on the phone, and then act like he was
on like he was living in this house, this big
house that he had just moved in to get this girl.
Speaker 3 (01:29:43):
Did you get the girl?
Speaker 7 (01:29:44):
No, I ain't get the damn girl. Sorry, but I'm like, yo,
what But that's not the first time he did that.
He did in flex with a lot of my stuff,
in my cars, in my houses. That's why I said, Roome.
He went from being my baby father, so my little brother.
And people don't get it. Sometimes inspiration most like, like.
Speaker 5 (01:29:57):
Everybody has seen Lauren start working here with the horrible
looking wigs, and if they see it grow and then.
Speaker 17 (01:30:02):
And then you cut your shirt match your car, it's
okay because they also seen you grow over.
Speaker 19 (01:30:07):
There with them arms as well. You went from you
know what I mean, And it was from.
Speaker 4 (01:30:14):
Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1 (01:30:15):
I don't encourage flexing, okay, flat flat flexing is not
my thing. Yeah, I just I just think it excites
the wolves too much.
Speaker 3 (01:30:24):
Anybody gets excited.
Speaker 4 (01:30:26):
Make you a target.
Speaker 19 (01:30:27):
Stay safe and stay at the rain.
Speaker 3 (01:30:28):
You know, and get your license here.
Speaker 4 (01:30:32):
Please don't and.
Speaker 1 (01:30:33):
Please and Please, don't get robbed for stuff you don't own.
That's that's that's formal mental illness to me. If you're
walking down the street and you see somebody's fanom and
you take a picture in front of it, and you know,
are you find somebody's money or fake money and you
holding in your hand.
Speaker 4 (01:30:47):
Don't get robbed for stuff you don't even know. That's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (01:30:50):
All right, you're right, But let the dogs run wild
and free envy. We don't need another video like that.
Speaker 3 (01:30:55):
I'm gonna show another video. I won't show you the
video this morning when they ran for me this morning.
We have the ladies with Lauren.
Speaker 19 (01:31:00):
We do speaking of stuff that you own with yours?
Speaker 17 (01:31:02):
What's not Megan Kelly is talking about Beyonce's body, whether
it's hers or not.
Speaker 19 (01:31:06):
We're gonnawn. We're gonna get on into the things.
Speaker 11 (01:31:11):
All right.
Speaker 5 (01:31:11):
We'll get into that. Next is the Breakfast Clove Water,
the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
Lauren becoming straight fast.
Speaker 3 (01:31:22):
She gets them from somebody that knows somebody.
Speaker 6 (01:31:25):
I'm a long girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 4 (01:31:28):
She'd be having the latest on the.
Speaker 11 (01:31:32):
Latest with Lauren La Rosa.
Speaker 1 (01:31:33):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you
have a little bit of everything on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 19 (01:31:40):
Alrighty y'all.
Speaker 17 (01:31:41):
So there's been a conversation online that Megan Kelly, who
is you know, what do I call our broadcast personality?
Speaker 6 (01:31:49):
Somebody yes, that she started in person.
Speaker 17 (01:31:52):
So Beyonce posted a Levi's ad that she did recently
this week and she's in all dentim of course because
it's leave Eyes. And there's been a huge conversation around
Sidney Sweeney and who's an actor producer who didn't an
ad for American Eagle. Now, when Sidney Sweeney did the ad,
the like text on the ad or the theme of
(01:32:12):
the ad was Sidney Sweeney has good genes J E. A. N. S.
But people, I'm sorry, yeah, but people took it the
wrong way and not the wrong way. I guess the
right way depend on how I don't know. People were
upset because they were saying that this is racially charged
because what are good genes like?
Speaker 19 (01:32:28):
You get it because she's white.
Speaker 1 (01:32:30):
Well, it was the first of all, I think the
backlash was ridiculous, but it was the commentary around the
video as well, because if you, if you listen to
the commentary, she says something about her eyes and then
it says.
Speaker 19 (01:32:40):
Blond hair, blue eyes.
Speaker 10 (01:32:42):
Yes.
Speaker 17 (01:32:42):
Now I will say American Eagle came out when all
the backlash was happening and they said Sidney Sweeney has
great genes.
Speaker 19 (01:32:48):
It isn't always about the genes her gens.
Speaker 17 (01:32:50):
Her story will continue to celebrate how everyone wears their
American egle gens with confidence, their way. Great geans look
good on everyone, right, So they're like, listen, y'all are
reaching at nothing. We weren't trying to be racial at all,
whatever the case may be. But anyway, So Megan Kelly
gets online because Beyonce posts her photo and her good jeans,
and Megan Kelly says, this is opposite of what Sidney
Sweeney's ad. This is opposite of Sidney Sweeny's ad. Quite clearly,
(01:33:13):
there is nothing neutral about Beyonce. Everything from her image,
to her fame, to her success to her look below
is bought and paid for. Screams, artificial, fake, enhanced, trying
too hard?
Speaker 3 (01:33:24):
Who's that that?
Speaker 19 (01:33:25):
Megan Kelly?
Speaker 6 (01:33:25):
And Kelly.
Speaker 17 (01:33:27):
Yeah, former anchor, wasn't she on Fox? Dude was at
one point where was her show Try to make okay anyway? Yes,
Megan Kelly so yeah, so that's she was.
Speaker 19 (01:33:37):
Yeah, that started.
Speaker 17 (01:33:38):
That started a conversation because people are like, first of all,
who were you to talk about anybody's body. Secondly, now
people are comparing the two ads, Sidney Sweeney and Beyonce, uh,
just because they're saying if Sidney Sweeney could have this
ad and do these things, and y'all want to say,
it's not about anything but her looks and how great
she's doing for the brand, because allegedly the stock went
(01:33:58):
up America Ego stock went up once Sidney Sweeney's ad dropped.
Speaker 19 (01:34:01):
Why can't Beyonce do her? Levis and Magan Kelly stout her.
Speaker 7 (01:34:03):
Business exactly and Magan Kelly U ad never with that chisel,
goddamn faith, don't play, don't do that.
Speaker 17 (01:34:11):
Yeah, and Lizzo entered the chat as well. But this
was before the Beyonce back and forth. This was when
Sidney Sweeney first posted it. Lizze posted herself into Levi
and she said, she said, if the Democrats won the election,
because it turned into like Democrats versus Republican Because there
was a story that came out where they went and
found Sydney Sweedens Sidney Sweeney's voting history and allegedly she
(01:34:33):
was re listed as a Republican voter and all the things.
Speaker 7 (01:34:36):
But Lizzo was being funny and it was funny. I know,
Sidney's Sweeney is probably like yo, I didn't.
Speaker 6 (01:34:41):
Even do nothing.
Speaker 3 (01:34:42):
All I did was just post a picture, take a pictrick.
Speaker 7 (01:34:45):
Sure, just just I got a great opportunity to do
an AD for American Eagle and this is what y'all
got from it.
Speaker 3 (01:34:52):
Yeah, literally, people are too oke.
Speaker 1 (01:34:54):
I can't I can't wait until people find out how
much of this is really just social engineering, you know, man,
because you know who wins in all of this, American
Eagle and lead US.
Speaker 4 (01:35:03):
I would do the same thing if I did an ad.
If you put an.
Speaker 1 (01:35:05):
Ad out in your ad, don't get some type of reaction,
and honestly, backlash is probably the best thing nowadays.
Speaker 4 (01:35:12):
It probably wasn't a good ADD.
Speaker 1 (01:35:13):
If you put an AD out and don't nobody respond
to it in no way, shape or form, it's probably
not a good ACD because when the last time I
AD came out. And I want you to think about
this because maybe y'all can help me. When the last
time I ad came out and people just were simply like, man,
that was a dope ad.
Speaker 4 (01:35:26):
That was great. That ad was fantastic. When does that
happen super Bowl time?
Speaker 3 (01:35:32):
Yeah, I would say super Bowl time, not.
Speaker 6 (01:35:34):
This Super Bowl mask that's to be so good. Now
they're not. They're trash now. So you know, I don't
see what I'm saying. Yeah, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (01:35:43):
Well, so if there's if there's not, if there's not
backlash and fake outrage around, your ad, is probably.
Speaker 11 (01:35:48):
Not a good ad.
Speaker 7 (01:35:49):
The last time I seen a good ad was when
Chance the Rapping did the Doritos ad during the Super
Bowl a couple.
Speaker 6 (01:35:54):
Of years ago, like like years ago.
Speaker 5 (01:35:58):
Yeah, but it was lit.
Speaker 6 (01:35:58):
He was wrapping his ass off.
Speaker 8 (01:36:00):
Well.
Speaker 17 (01:36:01):
Speaking of ads, the VMA's are going to go down
on September seventh, and they and now some of the nominations.
Beyonce is actually up for with Kendrick Lamar and Tyler Swift.
They're up for Artists of the Year period. Lady God
Guy's leading with twelve nominations. Eleven nominations, Bruno Mars ten nominations,
Kendrick Lamar including video of the year for not like us,

but it's music.
Speaker 5 (01:36:28):
Y'all.
Speaker 19 (01:36:28):
Saw the video of Lotto. This kind of is an
ad for the jewelry store.
Speaker 6 (01:36:31):
Okay with that.
Speaker 17 (01:36:31):
Lotto was in a jewelry store and they asked her
a question. I want you guys to listen to the
questions if you can answer.
Speaker 11 (01:36:36):
The forty fifth president of US and the forty seventh
president of USA, they both have the same patents.
Speaker 4 (01:36:44):
Is that possible?
Speaker 6 (01:36:45):
The twelfth got the same the forty fifth president of
the USA in the forty seventh president got the same parents.
Speaker 4 (01:36:53):
Yes, it's a mystery.
Speaker 6 (01:36:55):
They got the same parents because God made us.
Speaker 17 (01:36:59):
All I got to say here, because we're not only
we're not only forty seventh president it.
Speaker 11 (01:37:07):
Is you want to know that has such So the
the fifth president was Donald Tromp and the forty seventh
president is also Donald.
Speaker 7 (01:37:22):

understand what he was saying. Because like when you call
one of the okay, all right, no, no, no, please,
when you call us in the service and you get
somebody you don't understand you be like, yo, can I
speak to your many as to somebody else?

I ain't go old with you, and not a lot
of statement representatives representative.
Speaker 3 (01:37:46):
All God's children were all God's children.

don't know, I don't know what is the perfectly Yeah,
either one is perfectly fine.
Speaker 6 (01:37:58):

greed dildos?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
What never mind, what's up?
Speaker 6 (04:11):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 9 (04:12):
I was gonna say how we fill in on a
home day, but I can see how we feel in.
Let's get to this front page, all right, So more
on the situation regarding the redrawing of Texas congressional maps. So,
Texas Republicans again were blocked from moving forward with their
congressional redistricting plan for the second day in the row,
and the House convened but failed to reach a quorum
after more than fifty Democrats left the state and went
(04:33):
to Illinois, New York, and Massachusetts to prevent Republicans from
advancing redistricting maps. Now, the Texas House Speaker issued civil
arrest warrants for the appsent Democrats, but legal experts say
they're probably not enforceable outside of state lines. The Republicans
plan is aimed at adding up to five GOP seats
ahead of the twenty twenty six midterms. Now, yesterday President
(04:54):
Trump and Republican Yesterday, President Trump said Republicans are entitled
to more five to the five seats in Texas. Let's
take a listen to his conference, and we have.
Speaker 10 (05:04):
An opportunity in Texas to pick up five seats. We
have a really good governor and we have good people
in Texas. But in Illinois, what's happened is terrible what
they're doing. And they do you notice they go to
Illinois for safety. But that's all Jerry Mander.
Speaker 9 (05:21):
So Texas Democrats are ready to stay in Illinois for
as long as it takes in their fight against GOP
redistricting efforts. Texas Republicans, of course, are defending the redrawing
of those congressional boundaries, like state Representative Katrina Pearson. She
says minorities in the state of Texas are starting to
trend Republican, and she points to the border with Mexico,
adding that Hispanics have increasingly been voting for Trump. The
(05:44):
proposed map, she says, reflects that. Meanwhile, in Illinois, Governor
Pritzker is JB. Pritzker is considering the idea of a
possible mid decade congressional remap in Illinois. Speaking yesterday in
Aora alongside Texas state representatives and DNC chairman Martin. Pritzker
says redrawing Illinois congressional districts isn't something he wants to do,
(06:04):
but everything is on the table in the fight against
the GOP's redistricting efforts in Texas. Let's take a listen
to Illinois Governor JB.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
Pritzker.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
If they're gonna cheat, then all of us have to
take a hard look at what the effect of that
cheating is on democracy, and that means we've all got
to stand.
Speaker 11 (06:22):
Up and do the right thing.
Speaker 9 (06:24):
Democratic Texas lawmakers, of course, have been a noise since
Sunday again talking about just you know, trying to prevent
those redistricting efforts. Okay, so California has also entered the
chat in this The state Democratic leaders are preparing to
support Governor Gavin Newsom's proposal for a special election in
November to do the exact same thing that JB.
Speaker 6 (06:45):
Pritzker is going to do.
Speaker 8 (06:46):
So.
Speaker 9 (06:46):
Newsom says he's responding to President Trump urging Texas Republicans
to redistrict their twenty twenty six secure to redistrict for
twenty twenty six to secure GOP control. Let's hear more
from California Governor Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 12 (07:00):
He's dialing for seats familiar because he dialed for votes
in the last election. Here's a someone who tried to
break this country, try to light democracy on fire. On
January sixth, he recognizes he's going to lose in the midterms.
That's what's at stake, and that's why we're putting a
stake in the ground. We're not drawing lines to draw lines.
We're holding the line on democracy, on the rule of law,
(07:24):
coequal branches.
Speaker 11 (07:25):
Of government, popular sovereignty.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
That's what this is about.
Speaker 9 (07:28):
So in California, knew someones to allow lawmakers to temporarily
regain the power to redraw congressional district maps. Of course,
it was taken away in two thousand and eight and
given to an independent commission. Upholling by the Democratic leaders
on Sunday indicates over half of those surveyed are in
favor for the special election, while forty four forty one
percent opposed it seven percent are undecided. Of course California.
(07:50):
Former California governor and Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger opposes the efforts
and called jerry mander jerrymandering evil and for those who
don't know jerry mandering is defined as manipulating the boundaries
of an electoral constituency to favor a party or a class.
It's also important to note that states do you redraw
their maps about every ten years based on census data.
(08:11):
So that's why they say it's recommended that you do
your census.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Yeah, New York. New York said they're moving forward. We're
districting too. I mean, if they said if Texas does it,
then you know if Texas nuxs and they gonna buk yep.
Speaker 9 (08:24):
So that's your front page news for six am. Y'all
can follow me on. Excuse me, we're not quite there yet.

Speaker 5 (12:05):
Of what the hell is going on?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
This is going this is this is actually a great idea,
But I need you to stop talking about midgets as
if they're like, you know, an animal or something that
you should be doing. It's saying calling all little people,
you want to put together a little people wrestling event? Okay, yeah, yeah,
because this isn't this isn't something new, Like you know,
midget wrestling is a thing. Like they got dwarfing natives,
(12:31):
they got micro wrestling, like these are actual leagues.
Speaker 16 (12:34):
When you grow up with midget around you, you know
what I mean, like the same size as you, like
little then you grow up and all of a sudden
that people feel like the same size.
Speaker 8 (12:43):
I was scared. I'm like, well, why ain't they growing?

But they got extreme midget wrestling, they got midget wrestling warriors,
they got like actual leagues where people.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Do this, So you can you can do this. There's
a lane for it.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
But I'm sure there is permits and legal stuff that
you have to do. You just can't put up a
ring and say midgets fight that.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
Like I think I agree.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
You can't do that.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I agree, Like like dwarf Naders is a real league.

Speaker 13 (14:25):
D Okay. So I just want to say how the
pressing it is for a peri, especially when here and
betrayed everything Sean got into office. It just seems like
every single day I listen to you guys every morning,
it just seems like it's getting worse and worse and worse.
And at this point, it bless it seems too far
fast for him and make the annual currents at this point.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
I know that.
Speaker 13 (14:48):
Sounds silly, but it just seems like that's that's why
I was going next. And then also, I'm so the
parent from my city to say, if we had a
primary election, yeah, for the time, who's got to run
off the mayor? And always maybe one hundred thousand people
about it?

Well, I'm sorry, mom, I will say things would be better,
but that's what that's the typical thing that people say, right,
things would be better, keep praying, but I understand why
you steel depressed. The cross of groceries are high, the
cost of living is high.

jobs for them uh, basically taking John through them self
offer sets because of those people who working on factories,

like we are really in dark times, not only.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
So the passing well, I'm so sorry, that's horrible.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
And see, this is why I'll be saying when you
can't you can't lie to people like you know, when
those unemployment numbers come out and you know you hear
President Trump saying, oh these aren't real. You can't lie
to people about what they're actually going through and what
they're actually feeling.

Speaker 14 (16:12):
My question today is man Trump is going too much? Man,
he just put his head down and really start helping
the country because we hurt not here, man, We really bad.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
You know, lady just called and says she's depressed. He
says she's tired of hearing about it every day and
in times and life is hard.
Speaker 14 (16:26):
Yes, it's top just tap feeling for small businesses are
holding that chance right now?
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Yeah, be hope right now.
Speaker 16 (16:33):
We need we need some help, man, We need some help.
We need something we need trying to happen.
Speaker 8 (16:37):
Man.
Speaker 14 (16:37):
You know I'm from New York, you know so well.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
And that's the problem here.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
You know, when you when you promise day one relief,
and you promise that grocery prices and inflation and all
of these things that go down on day one, people
are expecting that. And once again you cannot lie to
people about what they're feeling. I don't care what statistics say,
I don't care what data says. The people with their
boots on the ground, they know what they're going through.
Speaker 8 (16:59):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
We'll get it off your chest. Eight hundred five eighty five,
one oh five one. If you need the vent, you
can hit us up now.
Speaker 8 (17:05):
Lauren.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
We got the latest Lauren coming up.
Speaker 17 (17:06):
We do be talking a lot about Trump this morning,
speaking of conversations between Trump and people and Diddy's orbit
and Diddy's world of begins. So we're gonna get into
what that means and just some of the things, because
I also found out Breakfast Club is somewhat involved in
the Diddy part and stuff.
Speaker 5 (17:22):
Yeah, I feel like we are part of everything. Somehow,
somewhere they try to connect us.
Speaker 17 (17:25):
Oh my god, listen, I got a good source that's
saying some things. So we're gonna talk about No, we
connect always doing something.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
No, we are not Rock Nation. Blame Rock Nation, don't
blame Breakfast Club.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
Okay, well, we'll get into the latest with Lauren when
we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the
Breakfast Club. Warning, everybody's DJ V Jess, Hilarrys Chelamage the guy.
We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest
with Lauren.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Lauren be coming a straight fast. She gets them from
somebody that knows somebody detail.
Speaker 6 (17:56):
I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Having the latest on the latest with laurl La Rosa.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details, sometimes you
have a little bit of every Well, the leaders on
the breakfast.
Speaker 8 (18:10):
Clubs some to me.
Speaker 17 (18:12):
Diddy's attorney, Nicole Westmoreland, she's one of delete attorneys in
his case, was on CNN yesterday late yesterday and she
was asked about the party with Trump. Let's take a
listen to her on ditty party.
Speaker 18 (18:24):
Have people in Seawan Colmes's orbit have they had conversations
with the Trump administration?
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Yes, we've uh, it's my understanding that we've reached out
and had conversations and reference to a pardon.
Speaker 18 (18:39):
President Trump when he was asked about this pardon, he said, quote,
I was very friendly with him. I got along with
him great, and he seemed like a nice guy. I
didn't know him well, but when I ran for office,
he was very hostile. And the President indicated that a
pardon is likely not on the table because of that
break in his relationship with mister Holmes years ago. How
(19:03):
is he feeling now about the chances of a pardon
given the President's commentary.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
I think that mister Colmbs is a very hopeful person,
and I believe that he remains hopeful.
Speaker 17 (19:18):
Yeah, and they're they're really pushing, you know, this narrative
about whether the pardon will or will not happen. Now,
I was poking around yesterday because what I'm trying to
understand is, number One, if the pardon even happens, because
of the way that the judges has been making sure
Didd he is not coming home and belling to a sentencing.
If the parton even happens, what does that look like,
did he? What does that look like for Diddy once
(19:39):
he's released? Like what is Trump going to expect in exchange?
Because Trump has been very vocal about the fact that
he doesn't really care to do this right, And yesterday
I'm poking around. What I was told was that poking
around did he? What I was told was that a
big part of the issue is, uh, the interviews that
(20:00):
he did leading up to this. One of the interviews
in particular that I was told the administration has actually
seen and brought up in conversation in these conversations is
an interview that Diddy did with Charlemagne on.
Speaker 19 (20:12):
A Revolt Tred Oh God.
Speaker 16 (20:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 19 (20:14):
So this was back in twenty twenty.
Speaker 17 (20:16):
It was October twenty twenty, during the twenty twenty presidential election,
and this was a few months after Diddy had said
the whole hold your vote thing let's take it a
listen to Diddy on white men needing to be banished.
Speaker 20 (20:28):
White men like Trump need to be banished that way of.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
It's real dangerous.
Speaker 20 (20:36):
This man literally threatened the lives of us and our
families about going to vote.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Stand back and stand by, Stand back and stand by.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
We're in a war. We're not taking this like it's
a war.
Speaker 20 (20:49):
We're taking this like oh, we're in a presidential election.
We're in a war of love versus hate. The number
one priority is to get Trump out of office.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Oh yeah, nah, he's not getting parted.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
I mean yeah, I can understand. I can understand why
Trump wouldn't want to party after hearing that.
Speaker 17 (21:09):
If you remember this conversation, it gets worse. Let's take
a listen to Diddy talking about a race war.
Speaker 20 (21:14):
The tribe of people that have the responsibility and really
should be scared to death for this man is white people.
Speaker 8 (21:22):
M hmm.
Speaker 20 (21:24):
If this man is elected, we're not standing by no
more getting killed. We're not scared of anybody standing up
and standing by.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
We're on the verge of a race war.
Speaker 20 (21:39):
If people in America want a race war, they'll not vote.
Speaker 6 (21:45):
Yeah, So, I mean, yeah, he's not gonna get that
party once once.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I don't think it. I don't think it's a race war.
I think it's a it'll be a class war if anything.
I can see that happening of a battle between you know,
rich and rich and the because that's just what's going
to happen when you're poor and you're trying to survive.
When you're poor and you're trying to survive, you're going
to go You're going to eat the rich. That's just
that's just a common sense thing. That's why you should
always take care of the least of you in a society.
Speaker 17 (22:12):
Yes, I agree. Now also, well, first of all, I
just want to say, after listening to this, I was like,
whoa those conversations. I don't know where the're gonna end up.
Speaker 10 (22:21):
But uh.
Speaker 17 (22:22):
They also talked to Nicole west Moreland on CNN about
the civil cases, because I think people are still forgetting
that on the civil side, things are still happening.
Speaker 19 (22:28):
Let's say, listen to her on the civil cases.
Speaker 18 (22:30):
He is still facing around seventy civil allegations from men,
from women, from people who led that they were miners
at the time, across decades, with horrific accusations of being drugged,
of being sexually assaulted. Each of those cases does have
to play through the courts individually, So I understand that
(22:54):
he denies them, but those are still active cases.
Speaker 10 (22:58):
True.
Speaker 6 (22:58):
But let me let me let me say this to you.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
This is the federal government, all right. It doesn't really
get any stronger than that. And so they obviously fully
investigated mister Holmes and obviously through the book at him.
Speaker 20 (23:13):
Right.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
And so if you think for a second, if the
government really thought that there were miners.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Out there hanging in the balance, if.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
The government really thought that there was drugs in the
baby oil or something of that nature, do you you
think the government just wouldn't have brought that up in
a full fledged criminal trial. Absolutely not, right, So that's
not even logical. And so if the government had, if
there was any real evidence of those allegations, we would
(23:44):
have heard all about it in the criminal trial.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Yeah, question, Lauren.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
If they asked him for a pardon already, that means
they're expecting Diddy to get sentenced to print the time, right, yep.
Speaker 19 (23:54):
That is what basically I mean.
Speaker 17 (23:55):
You have to because even during the whole trial they
had appeal lawyers in the trial just watching and taking
notes to prepare for an appeal before and they were
there were rumors that they and I talked to some
of the lawyers in court that were saying that Diddy's
team allegedly was like already seeking forfeiture attorneys too.
Speaker 19 (24:09):
So I think you just prepare, just in general.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Prepare for the worst.
Speaker 17 (24:12):
Yes, But I do believe that, you know, conversations they
and I did try and figure out who's having what conversations,
and you know, they won't give me that, but I
think yues to your point that that's what that means.
I am not confident though that the party will happen,
and I'm starting to get I wasn't nervous for him
at this ending. I thought it was gonna be something
he wasn't gonna walk, but like something small.
Speaker 19 (24:31):
But now I don't know, I'm starting to feel little
bit differently.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
I'm very nervous. I'm very nervous. I'm gonna tell you why,
because I still believe that this is uh and I
don't know. It just feels like they don't like him,
and it feels like this is revenge, right because the
charges that he's been charged with. There's people been that's
been charged with this before, and that they proved, that's
only gotten community service, that's only gotten a fine.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
It almost seems.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Like he's saying that, but you gotta give me, you
gotta give me some examples. I've heard you say that
a couple of times.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
You got It's like I've heard lawyer say, I've watched.
Speaker 19 (25:03):
You can't sell Charlotte.
Speaker 17 (25:04):
I can see the letter that the judge when he
recapped everything, he mentions cases.
Speaker 19 (25:09):
You could look up the cases and they'll give you
the breakdown.
Speaker 17 (25:11):
And when Diddy's team said, hey, these are different cases
where these people didn't have to do half the things
that Diddy is being is having to do waiting sentenceing,
but and be, the judge shot back, they keep and
I said this yesterday to the source I was talking to.
Speaker 19 (25:25):
The judge keeps leaning in on the fact that Jane and.
Speaker 17 (25:27):
Cassie, the prosecutors, they presented information to show that they
believe that these women were coerced, they were being they
were threatened, all these things.
Speaker 19 (25:35):
So that's where they're bringing in the violence.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
And I but even with the violence, he's not charged
with the violence like him beating Cassie is the worst thing,
one of the worst things I've ever seen. But he's
not being in charge with that. And it almost seems
like what they did with Ojight. OJ was found not
guilty for murder, right, but he got thirty three years
for stealing his stuff back and he said on robbery.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
OJ didn't even have a gun. But that's what it
seems like.
Speaker 5 (25:56):
It seemed like how OJ got thirty three for stealing
his stuff back, which it seems like they're gonna try
to do that with Diddy. Give him Diddy, like twenty
years for something that people that has been charged with
this guy community service.
Speaker 17 (26:07):
Well, I did ask, you know who specifically was having
conversations with the administration because I wanted to know how
strong those conversations would be. And I was just because
I was like, Hey, is it just letters from his kids?
Is it the actual defense team?
Speaker 19 (26:18):
Is it?
Speaker 10 (26:19):
Like?
Speaker 19 (26:19):
Who is it?
Speaker 17 (26:20):
And I was told it's not letters from his kids.
They said it's not his actual defense team. But they
did say that there are high powered attorneys that they've
been told to your point, ENV that feel the same
way you do, that have relationships with the administration that
have been reaching out, having conversations and doing things on
their part. So there are people behind the scenes that
do feel like how you feel about I'm nervous.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Got to be law.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
I got to be fair. That's my whole thing. It
has to be fair. It has to be based of
what he's charged with. Now, if he was charged with
beating Cassie given the fing book, but if it's the
things that he was he was found not guilty of
rico file, found not guilty of those main charges, you
got to be fair with that, correct, because it could
happen to anybody when it comes to court law, and
everybody wants to be in law fair right, they want
to be in court.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
I do idare I do agree that we want court
to be fair. But if his remaining two charges are
what he's ten years for one charge and ten years
for the other charge for, how is that not fair?
That's the law he's like he beat the other charges,
like the other charges he beat like that he forgot
found not guilty on all those other things. So he's
(27:19):
facing two charges right now of what prostitution right the
man prostitution and it's ten years a piece. So what
is what is not fair about? What he's facing right now.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
No, it's not what's fair.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
It's like, for instance, right, if if you drive and
you drive with a d UI, you can get but
let me see, I'm looking it up right now, you
can get five years in prison. But I don't think
that we know anybody that on their first charge with
d UI. And now nobody ever got hurt that got
five years. They got they got community service, and you
get your license taken care of. But that one person
that got d UI, that got the bookd on at him,
(27:51):
that just seems unfair when everybody else that got a
DUI and I'm just using as an example, got community service.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
But that one person that you got five Yeah, that's
not fair.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Listen, once again, trouble is easy to get into him,
hard to get out of it. I don't know. I
don't know if fair is the right word. I don't
know if we're using the right word. Yeah, I don't
know if the word is fair. But he's just what
he's facing. He beat the other charges right in a
court of law, right, and this is what he got
found guilty of.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
So he's got to deal with what he got found
guilty of.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
All right, Well, that is the latest with Lauren when
we come back. We got front page news and then
actor Wendell Pierce.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
Will be joining us.
Speaker 5 (28:26):
You know him from the wire, you know him from
suits and the host of others, and will kick with
him in a little bit. It's the Breakfast Club. Go Morning,
the Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Good morning, everybody.
Speaker 5 (28:36):
It's dj NV, just Hilarius Charlamagne the guy. We are
the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news now.
I just want to get some quick sports. The second
sex toy incident in the last seven days that a
WNBA plays someone through a sex toy on the court.
It almost hit a player as they were playing. Now,
this was during the Spox and Fever game. Kelsey Plumb
(28:58):
kicked it off the court. It happened again, and this
is like, what the fourth time.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Yeah, that's the fourth time that this happened, you know.
I you know, we had a conversation about this on
Brilliant Idiots, myself and Andrew Shows. We had just like
weeks ago, way before this even started happening, and we
were saying that, you know, Andrew had the idea of
maybe they should actually have signature scrap ons, right, like
put the people in the league who are part of
that community. Like imagine like the scrap on that's the
(29:22):
same color of the jerseys that they wear, things of
that nature, right, just just for you know, different merchandise.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
They can't sell it at the arena, Like what they're
gonna sell a jersey the strap Like you can't do that,
I mean none.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
And it don't got to be so old the arena.
This play can be so different. Places don't have to
be at the arena. So I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know why somebody would be throwing lime green
dial doos on the court at WNBA games, But you
know it is good marketing for the league.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Hello Morgan, it is kind of what time?
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Can I say one more thing?
Speaker 1 (29:53):
You you tell that story, but don't give us to
score the game.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Who won the game?
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Who won the game between the FEBNCH Balks last night
and be you just want the drama.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
The deal do won last night? No, the Sparks won
last night.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
But we don't get sports.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
We don't get the sports the playoffs on NBA or
w n b A. But I just you know, thought
this crazy and these people need to stop coming to
the place with dil dough, figure out how to pack.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Getting how they getting in with the tte.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
That's what I said.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
And that's how I know it's a woman bringing this
into the game, because if a woman was bringing that
into the game and they patting the woman down and
they feel that, you ain't gonna say nothing about it.
Speaker 4 (30:29):
If it was a guy, they'll be like, what is that?
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Like they be just wearing them? Yo, No, they don't
wear them. They probably have them in they backpack.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
They gotta check the backpack. Yah.
Speaker 6 (30:40):
Yo, ain't nobody coming. Ain't no woman coming in there
strapped up like that?
Speaker 5 (30:44):
Like no, alright, what's up, Morgan?
Speaker 6 (30:48):
I'm sorry, No, it's all good. I'm just sitting here imagining.
Can you imagine what?
Speaker 9 (30:53):
No, the Nike campaign behind it, It's like, just do it, yes,
just do it?
Speaker 6 (30:59):
All right, let me get into this front page news
all right.
Speaker 9 (31:02):
Speaking of games, President Trump is signing an executive order
creating a twenty twenty eight Olympics Task Force. It will
run the summer Olympic Games being held in LA. The
task force will handle some security, transportation, visa processing, in
addition to other duties related to the event. Let's recap
President Trump's remarks, in part from the White House about
(31:23):
the upcoming games.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
He spoke yesterday.
Speaker 21 (31:26):
Today, I will signed an executive order establishing the White
House Task Force on the twenty twenty eight Summer Olympics,
mobilizing the entire federal government to ensure the games are safe, seamless,
and historically successful.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
It's going to be amazing.
Speaker 21 (31:41):
America is a nation of champions, and in July twenty
twenty eight will show the world what America does best
in this when we're winning like we have never won before.
Speaker 5 (31:50):
This is bs right. They do all these things for
the Olympics, right. I heard they got a task for
it to make sure the wild fires don't disrupt the Olympics.
But my whole thing is this before just to care
about people. But they when the money coming in, they
got to protect that money, which is crazy.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Hey.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
Well, Trump went on to say that LA is a
great venue, which is crazy because, like to your point,
he's been very critical of California, and he says that
he's happy that he will be in office for the Olympics.
Speaker 8 (32:16):
Now.
Speaker 9 (32:16):
Casey Wasserman, the chair and president of the LA Olympics
released a statement thanking the President, thanking the President the
Trump administration for its support. LA Mayor Karen Bass and
California Governor Gavin Newsom have yet to comment on that
task force.
Speaker 6 (32:30):
But to your point, Env.
Speaker 9 (32:31):
Trump also says he's working to make sure the wildfires
don't disrupt the twenty twenty eight Summer Games in LA.
Speaker 6 (32:37):
He said Governor Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 9 (32:39):
Has to allow more water to flow into California from
the Pacific Northwest, and he called for the protection of
the Delta smelt, which is a fish to stop.
Speaker 6 (32:48):
Let's take a listen to President Trump's comments there.
Speaker 21 (32:51):
I've been fighting with him for a long time about
allowing the water cut to come down from the Pacific Northwest.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Essentially, they have a lot of water, they.
Speaker 21 (32:58):
Send it out into the Pacific Ocean in order to
protect the smelt.
Speaker 4 (33:02):
It's a little tiny fish.
Speaker 9 (33:04):
Of course, Trump again blamed efforts to protect the species
for the devastating Los Angeles wildfires in January.
Speaker 6 (33:12):
So, but you know, we look.
Speaker 9 (33:14):
Forward to those games coming up twenty twenty eight. It's
going to be interesting to see, especially considering that the
administration will be in charge or the Task Force per
SE will be in charge of visa processing, So that
should be.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
An interesting feed there.
Speaker 9 (33:27):
Meanwhile, in other news, the Clintons are being subpoenaed and
the congressional investigation into late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The House Oversight Committee issued subpoenas to six former attorneys general,
two former FBI directors, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton,
and former President Bill Clinton. The subpoena calls for the
(33:47):
DOJ to provide congress any Epstein files in its possession
with victims' names redacted, as well as communications related to
the case between former Biden administration officials and the department.
It marks the first major major move that comes as
many Congressional Republicans call for more transparency around the Epstein case.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
And that's interesting, you know, you know they're all meeting.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
I was watching CNN last night and they're all meeting
today at JD. Vance's Vice President Vice president residency and
they're having a conversation about how to handle the Epstein files.
It's like JD. Vance and I think the DOJ. I
forgot who else they said is gonna be at the meeting.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Interesting?
Speaker 9 (34:27):
Interesting, but yes, it does seem like there is some movement,
uh and without you know, essentially Congress being involved in
and forcing the hand. But that's your front page news.

every I got all my news. That was like my

Speaker 4 (36:22):
Yeah I love that. Yeah, We're glad you finally could
join us.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Man, I wish I could be there in the studio,
but I had to be out of town this week.
Speaker 11 (36:30):
No, I understand.
Speaker 4 (36:31):
How are you?
Speaker 11 (36:31):
First of all, I'm good man. It's been a real
busy summer. I've been enjoying myself because I'm already back
to work. Summer ended for me, uh last week. But
it's been great. I've been traveling a lot. You know.
I have discovered Angila. Great man. It's it's what I
(36:54):
call a drop and PLoP. Right, you drop your bag
and you flopped out. Oh man, we're giving it. We
should be given it away. Charlotte.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Man, I've been going there for years. Man, I love it.
But it's an island that you go to if you
like to do nothing.
Speaker 11 (37:07):
That's it. That's why drop and PLoP. I love it.
So I've been traveling around and uh, you know, had
a busy summer because I had a lot of films
come out this summer and coming out. So uh, it's
good and back to work already.
Speaker 7 (37:21):
And what I'm saying, I just have to say, for
just for me personally, you do not age hey, because
I discovered you on the wire.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
I'm frommore City, so that's the right. Baltimore and my
favorite show, Like it's.
Speaker 11 (37:35):
One of my favorite cities. I feel like it's a
hometown with mine.
Speaker 6 (37:38):
Yes, yes, but I just want to man, you look
amazing still.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
You just.
Speaker 11 (37:44):
Thank you well. You know they say black dog crack, uh,
so I'm trying to live up to that.
Speaker 6 (37:51):
Right, unless you want crack, Unless you want to crack,
you know.
Speaker 11 (37:55):
You will crack. There's always exceptions to that, right. I
love Baltimore. Man, When we were doing the Wire, you know,
it was like this delayed response, So it was like
our summer camp.
Speaker 8 (38:08):
Boy.
Speaker 11 (38:09):
We would go down work on the wire, and I
had such a good time there. I saw y'all had
the whole crew, all the criminals side over here the cops,
the cops, you know, we need we need respect too.
But I would always go to there was a club
called Choices. I loved Choices and that dance that prompt
(38:30):
whatever that dance was. Man, I looked like the old
man in the club, That's what I was. And I
would go there and they thought I was a cop
because I would put on the suit. Choices was you
know it was no, it was I went in with
a suit because Choices was you know, you didn't you
(38:52):
didn't play in Choices. It was a real deal. It
was no TV criminals in there. It was the real deal.
Sometimes so I put on a suit and everybody thought
I was real. Five Oh you know, I said that
would keep me safe. Any club you have to go
through two metal detectives where you go in. You know,
it's an issue too too. So I stayed near the door.
(39:13):
But I loved Choices. I love Baltimore. Baltimore reminded me
of New Orleans, where I'm from, right has all the
same issues, that has all the beautiful stuff too, you know,
and to this day a city that I love invested
in and is a second home.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
When you think about twenty three years and a wire,
what did that mean to you?
Speaker 11 (39:36):
The wire was the Canarian the mind. It was the
thing that let us know that there was going to
be an American decline if we did not take care
of the greatest resource we have in this country, and
that's its people. And the thing that I'm proud of
as an artist is that's the role of artists, not
just entertainment. It's the place where we reflect on what
(39:58):
thoughts we are to the individual, where you think about
who you are, what you want to be your triumphs,
your failures. That's what art is, you know, and that's
what the show was. It was a place where we
reflect on who we are, what we're doing, our dysfunction,
hopefully decide what our values are, and then act on them.
I was very proud of what the Wire is, and
(40:19):
the Wire is. It's a classic. And what makes something
classic speaks to people then, speaks to people now, and
it will speak to people long after we're gone because
it speaks to that common humanity that we have. You'll
never pass a corner boy anymore without understanding that he
has a full life and there's a whole story behind him.
So I'm very proud of the Wire.
Speaker 17 (40:39):
You were early on in saying this right, that the
Wire is letting us know what's about to happen coming.
How did you know that then when you were doing it,
and like, you know, even in the earlier years, because
people always ask you about bringing the Wire back.
Speaker 19 (40:50):
Yeah, and you've been saying it for some time.
Speaker 11 (40:52):
And I always said, you know, the only thing I
tried to do. I tried to convince them to do
a prequel of the Wire because they always said, y'all
too old, too long in the tooth now, you know,
to be trying to do a sequel, but I said,
we should see how it comes up. And actually I
talked to Sam Samuel Jackson. Man, he was going to
(41:12):
play the folks that were controlling the towers before Stringer
and Avon. Yeah, Boxdale took over, right who they that
battle for that territory then. So David said, oh yeah, yeah,
that's a good idea. But he always said he was
never going to do it. So it's like a good book.
(41:33):
I knew that it was going to be effective then,
because you saw, you heard how it impacted people. I
remember one walk I had in Manhattan. I was walking
one time and this little old white lady with blue
hair stopped me on the east side. I said, you know,
I love the Wire, that's my show. A little further along,
this real sort of military square drug guide looked around
(41:54):
and said, you know, I love the Wire. You know,
I can't really, I can't talk to you right now
because I'm under cover. I'm on the job. Then I
got up to like wow, I got up to one
hundred and eighteenth Street whatever, and his brother came up
to me. Man, he was looking around just like the
other guys look around and said, yeah, man, I love
the wild. I can't talk to you right now, but
you know I'm hustling. I'm hustling right So I was
(42:15):
just like if a hustler and the little blue headed
old lady was still digging the same thing, we were
speaking to our humanity. So that's how I knew, That's
how I knew would make an impact.
Speaker 1 (42:24):
Then I feel like, I've never seen you do a
role that wasn't grounded in purpose.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Is that intentional?
Speaker 11 (42:33):
Well, you haven't seen all my stuff. I got some
books there. You know. You can't you can't do, you
can't do. I am celebrating my fortieth year in the
business man, and.
Speaker 4 (42:51):
Wow, congratulations, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 11 (42:54):
It's this month. Actually, yeah, you go back. Just I'm
fortunate that they bombed, because you know, just like work
gets you, work, it gets you a lot of times.
The business. You know, they want you to make chicken
salad out of chicken. So I got a lot of chicken,
you know, But but I try. I tried to. I
(43:19):
tried to pick my roles with purpose because you know,
I want to be able to look back at a
body of work and see, you know, a multitude of
different roles and uh, you know, tap into trying to
come to an understanding of what this journey is all about,
you know. And I was motivated to become an actor
by James O. Jones and Roscoe Lee Brown, Julius Harris. Uh,
(43:43):
you know, those men kind of set the bar high
for me. I like that diversity.
Speaker 5 (43:50):
We're still actor Wendell Pierce Lauren superman.
Speaker 17 (43:53):
Like you're playing an editor in chief of media outlet,
journalistic integrity and all those things are like the brain
Harry White, Yeah, Perry White, what you come with, But
like that's so on time for right now and all
the conversations in the media. So how much do you
bring into from real life? Like do you connect to
real life when you do things? Because I know somebody, yes,
back away.
Speaker 11 (44:12):
Especially with that, you know, and even if you don't
get to use it in the film, I knew that. Man,
newspapers right now are having a hard time all of
a sudden, how do you make it? And I said,
that's kind of like the reason Perry White is always
you know, pissed off. You know. It's like, man, how
am I as an editor going to keep this newspaper going,
(44:32):
and then the biggest story of the universe falls into
his lap, which is Superman, and he has an inkler
in that clock can Superman. I don't care what anybody says,
classes ain't fooling me. I do take take that into account.
You know that he's probably an editor who's struggling to
keep on top of things, especially with all these different
platforms out there that are killing him. You know that
(44:56):
are killing him is nobody reads the paper is anymore,
so everything's online, you know, and different platforms, uh like this.
So I used that to kind of develop Perry White.
And what's great about it is that's something that's developing
even more that thinking about doing a Daily Planet TV
(45:18):
show extension of that with actually it's around Jimmy about
Jimmy Olsen. So yeah, so you know that that I
always take that's in the development of character. Also, you spoke.
Speaker 7 (45:29):
Earlier about els Ben. How is it working with Steve A. Golbert?
Speaker 6 (45:35):
He announced that that project.
Speaker 11 (45:37):
Yeah, you know, it was it was already in the works,
so you know, it's art imitating life, life imitating art.
It was its great Stephen Colbert is fantastic. He's very
talented and that was something that we had already done
by the time the news happened.
Speaker 6 (45:59):
So because I know you joke the exd you for yeah,
we were.
Speaker 11 (46:01):
I was on the show and he said, oh, man,
I would love to come on the show. You know,
even as a corpse. I said, I work on that.
Speaker 8 (46:06):
You know.
Speaker 11 (46:07):
I worry, I did, you know, and it worked out.
So I'm not I'm not saying I'm going to take
all the credit, but I'm going to take the credit.
I got him on the show, and uh, and so
it was really cool and so whateverywhere else happened was
above my pay grade. I don't know what happened behind
the scenes, but it was cool.
Speaker 19 (46:27):
So Trump keep coming for us because of Charlotte.
Speaker 6 (46:29):
You can help us.
Speaker 11 (46:33):
Charlemagne, you handled that right, man.
Speaker 8 (46:35):
You know.
Speaker 11 (46:36):
You know, principle is principal. You know what I'm saying.
And actually you are exercising your right of real having
principal and that's uh, that's something that that is your
true north. So I appreciate that. I appreciate that, my brother.
And you know, when you think about you think about
(46:57):
all the other times and times like this, people have
given us the playbook of how to stand on business,
how to stand on principal. Think of Muhammad Ali. Man,
they marched down the street against Muhammad Ali right outside
this building, up and down Broadway, and nights before y'all
(47:18):
were born, when he was fighting. Boy, they hated Muhammad Ali.
On the day he died, you couldn't find anyone who
hated Muhammad Ali, right, everyone faint. Oh you know. I
always love Muhammad, but he stood on principal. I think
of him and the stand that you're taking. I think
of you know, Martin Luther King in Birmingham jail. I
(47:39):
think of black folks in the North Church, you know,
on New Year's Eve, waiting to get word about this
emancipation that we hear they're going to sign and give
us our freedom. Right. I say all of that to
say that you are a part of a long line
of people who stand on principle. So uh, and ultimately
(48:03):
we know that's that's the thing that will help and
that's the thing that will protect you ultimately because people
will recognize that.
Speaker 4 (48:12):
So man, thank you very much.
Speaker 11 (48:14):
You know that's what the American aesthetic is all about.
Speaker 17 (48:17):
Your work is so impactful, though in like what's happening
in media right now, is like anybody who is like,
you know, standing, like you said, tints down right, Like
the American Revolution series that you talk about that's on PBS, Yeah,
that's going to.
Speaker 11 (48:28):
Be our PBS. Ken Burns the American Revolution.
Speaker 17 (48:31):
Is that because I've been seeing so much stuff about
NPR and PBS with the Trump administration, like.
Speaker 11 (48:36):
Perfect example of representation being important. We're living in a
time where funding is being cut. The Corporation of Public
Broadcasting no longer exists. Just think about just think about that.
PBS and NPR are going to be gone. And that's
(48:57):
because in all coups, you take over the media first,
so you can control the propaganda. And a part of
it is silencing those you feel as though are going
to shed light on your criminality, right, And that's that's
the thing that is so important to make sure that
(49:19):
you get out there and something like that, the American
Revolutionary think of all the ken Burns, Civil War, the
Vietnam War. The reason when he did with country music,
you know, to show to show the roots of country
music and how impactful it was and how you know,
multi racial it was. You know, so all of that
(49:41):
doesn't have a platform, you know, and so you have
to fight against that. That's why it's important to support
organizations and institutions that we'll be able to get give
voice to the voiceless, give a stage, you know, an
opportunity to folks, you know. And that's why as an artist,
(50:04):
you understand, you know that this form is where we
reflect on who we are, who we hope to be.
But at the same time, as an advocate, I feel
as though the social justice movement of the twenty first
century is economic development. And that's why at this time
and in this moment, when there's so much funding pulling
(50:24):
back and opportunities that are taken away, it's important to
create those opportunities. And that's why right now I'm very
proud of something that we're announcing and launching. It's a
great segue into that, which is the Coalition for Legacy
Theaters of Color Fund, which I have been a part
(50:45):
of creating to give opportunities to those legacy theaters who
have been in the creative cultural economy of this city
of New York for over twenty five years, and also
those new companies who are giving that legacy a chance
to live on. And that's what this fund is going
to fund their productions and marketing. And it's a ten
(51:09):
million dollar commitment that we're announcing today the Coalition WOW,
the Coalition for Legacy Theaters of Color. It's a partnership
that I am giving my full throated endorsement to the
Caesars Palace Times Squared project, which is a hotel in
the Casino. I'm very honored that they are giving a
(51:35):
commitment to making sure that those cultural institutions like that
are sustained going into the future. So they listen to
my proposal of supporting companies like the Negro Ensemble Company
and the Billie Holliday Theater and the Black Spectrum Theater
(51:56):
and New Heritage Theater Group who have been around since
twenty five, thirty forty fifty years, even serving communities of
color with theater. They inspired me to be an actor
when I was a little boy reading about them in
New Orleans, right and then came up here and so
proud to now join with with jay Z and Rock
(52:19):
Nation and sl Green and Caesar's Gaming and Caesars Entertainment
to bring this coalition together, and that's why they are
building this project. But you know, you can do well
and do good and they understand that this project is
about making sure that the community has some input and
(52:40):
then they're servicing the community. And this is something that
I'm proud of. It's going to be right in the
middle of Broadway, and that in the Broadway community is
at the is the pinnacle of theater in New York
and the cultural economy, and so I'm proud to be
a part of that. I'm proud to launch this fund
(53:01):
today and give my full throated endorsement of Caesar's Palace.
Time Square were.
Speaker 3 (53:05):
Still kick it with actor Wendell Pierce charm.
Speaker 1 (53:09):
Is to fund the sole reason you wanted to support
the bid for a prognation, and that'sl Green Casar Palace.
Speaker 11 (53:15):
I wanted to support it. First of all, I'm an artist, right.
First of all, I'm an artist. And to see these
companies that should be who aren't getting the attention they deserve,
who are underfunded in my eyes, who should who have
given and created a legacy that has to be sustained.
That was the most important thing to me as an advocate.
(53:36):
You know, I'm from New Orleans. Twenty years ago we
were destroyed by Katrina, and the one thing I learned
is the social justice movement for the twenty first century
is economic development and to that's the way you build sustainability.
That's why how you protect communities on all And one
of the reasons I support this is because this is
clearly an economic engine that's going to develop Times Square,
(54:00):
that's going to bring multitudes of jobs. It's going to
have a halo effect of affecting all the businesses around
Time Square. And at the same time, think of all
the people that come in that's going to be coming
to be a part of Caesars and to stay at
the hotel and go to the casino. That's more of
an influx of people who are coming to Broadway, you know,
(54:22):
almost it's projected to be almost you know, eight hundred
thousand more people who are going to be coming to Broadway. Now,
take these companies who never get the attention, who never
get the real quality marketing that this is going to present.
There's sixty five million people who are part of this
rewards program that they're going to have access to. There's
going to be childcare, so you know, the Development has
(54:44):
said we're going to really put our belief into action
childcare for Broadway workers. There's going to be a debt relief,
student debt relief, medical debt relief, you know, health relief,
and I think that's important. That's I'm a union man,
so my union Actors Equity is supporting it Local eight
(55:05):
or two, which is a musicians union. So this is
now you see a part of me as a producer.
You know, I'm a Tony Award winning producer. So I
understand here's an opportunity where art meets commerce, and so
we understand the art. That's the thing that everyone shares.
We have a vision of how art can impact community.
(55:27):
We may have differences on how we build that economic
engine and the commerce that will support that, but we
have commonality there the economic engine that a project like
this brings. I've seen it in New Orleans Post Katrina.
I've seen this particular company, Caesars in New Orleans and
how people have the same concerns about whether or not
(55:49):
we should have this casino right in the French Quarter.
You know, this is the heart of our culture and
it has been more than beneficial. It has developed the
French Quarter. It has brought jobs there, it has brought
more visitors there. So this is for me an economic engine,
and I feel as though the twenty first century social
(56:11):
justice movement starts with it economic development, and especially in
a time when so much is being cut back, we
have to exercise our right of self determination. So I
challenge the partnership to say, I'm an artist, these are
the companies that I want to support, and if you
want to reach out to the community, I ask you
to support them too. And they said, we're willing to
(56:33):
do that.
Speaker 4 (56:34):
Man, blame Rock Nation for all of that.
Speaker 1 (56:36):
And as you said earlier, when though, that's why representation
is important. Because you have a company like Rock Nation
who cares about the communities like Manhattan Plaza in that area.
Speaker 4 (56:45):
They care about the folks on Broadway.
Speaker 1 (56:47):
They listen to people like yourself, and they brought something
to the table to benefit those people.
Speaker 11 (56:52):
Yeah, man, listen, you talk about Manhattan Plaza. There's a
fifteen million dollar commitment there. You know, there's twenty million
dollars going towards kids and families and seniors being able
to afford the tickets of Broadway. They're subsidizing ticket purchases
like that. So I tell people all the time, never
lose the ability to have your concerns and your questions.
(57:15):
Never lose the ability to be offended. And so challenge
yourself and challenge anyone who wants to come and do
a development like Caesars in Times Square and say this
is what I expect. And they've heard that, and they're
answering that security, sanitation, infrastructure around it, jobs in that area,
(57:36):
the development of what the engine will bring to the table.
They are showing you the impact that it can have,
the economic engine, and that's why I feel comfortable doing it.
I've seen it done with this particular company in New Orleans.
I know how important it is that a company like
the Negro Ensemble Company is started by Douglas Turner Ward
(57:58):
and Robert Hook and so many people. The last time
I saw them in the theater that they had was
when I was in school in like nineteen eighty two.
It was a second production of play called a Soldier's
Play and a young actor in it, Denzel Washington. Adolph
(58:19):
Caesar was playing the sergeant. And they haven't had a
play on Broadway since Ceremonies in Dark Old Men, which
is like nineteen seventy one. It's because they haven't had
the opportunity of marketing and funding. So this is a chance.
I wanted to bring an infusion of sustainability to them
(58:43):
because they should have their place at the pinnacle of
cultural economy in New York. And that's and that's what
this fund is all about, the coalition of Legacy Theaters
of Color, and that's what this fund is going to
be built on, and that's what we're going to be
building to make sure that they get the recognition, have
(59:06):
the sustainability, and have the marketing and funding uh that
is needed. And that's the commitment that the Caesars Partnership
is bringing, and I'm partnering with them to make sure
that it's sustainable.
Speaker 4 (59:19):
Mister Windell Pias, thank you man.
Speaker 1 (59:21):
Thank you for your wisdom, thank you for your insight,
thank you for your art, thank you for your service
to our people. Thank you for the coalition of Legacy
Theaters of Color. Thank you, just just thank.
Speaker 11 (59:31):
You, brother, Thank you man. I am so honored to
be here at the Breakfast Club. It really is just
a smile on my face. Smile on my face. I
got some cachet now.
Speaker 6 (59:41):
As soon as they said you like.
Speaker 11 (59:46):
Baltimore in the house, man, I love Baltimore. I love Baltimore.
Thank you for the.
Speaker 4 (59:51):
Breakfast thank you, it's Windell Peers, It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 3 (59:54):
Everybody's j n V Jess Hilary.
Speaker 19 (59:58):
First of all, I've got a point, they see it.
Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
Speaker 6 (01:00:01):
Yes, she gets something.
Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
Somebody that knows, somebody detail.
Speaker 6 (01:00:09):
I'm a home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 4 (01:00:12):
She'd be having the latest on the lawn, The latest
with Lauren la Rossa. Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you
have details. Sometimes you have a.
Speaker 11 (01:00:20):
Little bit of everything.
Speaker 3 (01:00:21):
It's the latest on the Breakfast Club talk.
Speaker 17 (01:00:26):
All right, So there are reports right now the Sun
did it exclusive that Howard Stern's show will be it
is to be canceled allegedly after twenty years on Serious XM,
as his one hundred million dollar contract comes to an end.
Speaker 19 (01:00:42):
Now here's that.
Speaker 4 (01:00:44):
Headline is crazy, by the way, but.
Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
That that Howard Stern's getting canceled, Like, that's not that's
not the accurate He's not, that's not the accurate story.
Speaker 4 (01:00:54):
But continue, Lauren.
Speaker 17 (01:00:55):
Yes, Now let's get into the story so we can
get into what they actually mean by that. So basically,
the conversation that's happening right now because of the Sun
in this article is that Howard Stern's show may not
be returning only because he is at the end of
his five year deal and the amount of money, like
literally in the article they say, the amount of money
(01:01:16):
that he would want to renew a contract with Serious,
the Serious that won't have it to give it to him.
So in the article, one of the exserts or quote
says Stern's contract is up in the fall, and while
Sious is planning to make him an offer, they don't
intend him to take it.
Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
They also say that you imagine making You're making so
much money that the company knows, like, look, we can't
afford to pay him that anymore. Are afford to pay
him anything more? So we know we're going to offer
him he's not gonna take right.
Speaker 17 (01:01:45):
And then so another quote from the article says Serious
and Stern are never going to meet on the money
he is going to want. Is no longer worth the investment. Now,
I don't think that it's no longer worth the investment.
I think like we just said that they can't afford
to do it. And then they mentioned Stephen quote and
they say, after you saw what happened with Stephen Colbert,
it is likely they just can't afford to keep him
going because there have been a conversation about you know,
(01:02:06):
the CBS mentioned finances when Colbert Show was announced to
be canceled coming up in May, Howard Star.
Speaker 3 (01:02:13):
Was making one hundred million dollars a year.
Speaker 5 (01:02:15):
I think he worked with two or three days in
a year, two or three days a week and didn't
work in the summer. Wow, that was amazing double bomb
for Howard Stern man.
Speaker 1 (01:02:24):
But I mean he was worth it though, because I
mean he put serious side of Like Radio on the map,
you know, and they gave him a whole bunch of
stocks twenty years ago.
Speaker 4 (01:02:32):
Yeah, like he did. You probably wouldn't even know.
Speaker 1 (01:02:33):
Serious Sided like Radio wouldn't have half of the success
it's probably had if it wasn't for Howerstern.
Speaker 17 (01:02:38):
Now, So in thinking of what's next in case this
is true, because Howard Stern Norse Sirious have confirmed any
of these reports, I did reach out to Serious I
was I'm tuning into Howard Stern It's Morning in between
breaks to see if he'll address it at all, but
nothing official yet.
Speaker 19 (01:02:54):
If this does happen.
Speaker 17 (01:02:55):
There is another mention in this article that what will
likely happen is that Serious will cut some sort of
deal with Howard Stern to keep his catalog upon his exit,
which I think is also fire as well.
Speaker 19 (01:03:05):
And then, of course, when this story broke.
Speaker 17 (01:03:07):
And people started having conversation about it, the first thing
that they said was, you know, Howard Stern is very
vocal about how he feel about Donald Trump.
Speaker 6 (01:03:13):
He's you know, he's very vocal about everything. But they
say that Howard.
Speaker 17 (01:03:17):
There's another source in this article that says that Howard
Stern's political leanings are also not working in his favorite
The quote is, if Serious isn't going to give Stern
a offer, I don't think it would have anything to
do with his ratings. It's more likely everything to do
with his political with this political climate. But isn't it
different because he's on Serious, which is like digital right,
Like that's completely different than him.
Speaker 3 (01:03:37):
Being on Serious is probably in every new car that's
that's made now.
Speaker 19 (01:03:43):
But I'm saying, like his who does he have to
answer to? Isn't it different from him?
Speaker 3 (01:03:47):
There's no sponsorships and things like that, just subscriptions. I'm
asking you, I think I political.
Speaker 5 (01:03:53):
Leaning, I don't. I don't know if he has I
know they got subscription. It's a debscription based I think
he has advatage. I think his show actually has avatars.
Speaker 4 (01:04:01):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:04:02):
I think so.
Speaker 11 (01:04:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:04:04):
But I knew though that he makes one hundred million
dollars a year, So it's probably just financial. I mean,
come on, look at the economic climate that we're in, right,
So I mean, if they, like they said, they're going
to make him an offer, but it's going to be
something decreased from one hundred million dollars a year, and
he might not be worth his while to want to
do it. Plus he's seventy one years old.
Speaker 19 (01:04:23):
If I was at this point, I would go and
just live the rest of my good life.
Speaker 4 (01:04:27):
Yeah, he might just want to kick his feet up somewhere.
Who knows.
Speaker 5 (01:04:30):
There was there was a rumor when I when I
worked there, that he would Thursday after his show, he
would fly to the Hampton's where he at his house,
and he would stay there Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday month
and then fly back. And I just thought that was
so dope. I was like, man, that's just living life.
He would stay with his family for the five days.
Speaker 3 (01:04:45):
I just thought that was amazing.
Speaker 8 (01:04:46):
That is dope.
Speaker 1 (01:04:47):
And by the way, this is just a rumor. Everybody
should be wrong like he might. You never know, he
might do a new deal. Still do his two days
a week, sell his catalog like he been doing, and
kick his feet up. Still he's living a great life.
I thank you to all that from doing radio. Drop
a bomb for Howard Stern. I was turn one at life. Yes,
a long time, a long time ago. By the way,
(01:05:09):
he's already home. He's been home.
Speaker 13 (01:05:12):
Well.
Speaker 17 (01:05:13):
Another news, speaking of shows and cancelations and conversations, there's
another reported. Remember we talked about Gael King and Trump,
making highlight of the fact that there's a report that
her CBS Morning's career maybe in murky waters. Well, TMC
got her out yesterday responding to Trump. It was brief,
but that's like a listener what she said.
Speaker 6 (01:05:32):
Mis King, what was your reaction to seeing what Trump
said last night?
Speaker 19 (01:05:36):
So I'm sorry he feels that way.
Speaker 8 (01:05:40):
What I'm just gonna do.
Speaker 13 (01:05:42):
I like my job, continue to do a good job.
Speaker 19 (01:05:45):
There's a long list of people.
Speaker 8 (01:05:48):
Look, I'm I'm in a group now with Bruce Springsteen,
Taylor Swift, Stephen Colbert.
Speaker 3 (01:05:55):
I'm sorry he feels that way.
Speaker 19 (01:05:57):
Yeah, she's talking about the list of people that you
know takes his shots up.
Speaker 3 (01:06:01):
Leading for Charlaman. Oh, he just got to that list.
Speaker 4 (01:06:05):
Gail just named all the Gail named all the white people,
all right, and she.
Speaker 19 (01:06:09):
Didn't see you all on colors on your face. And
she still didn't see.
Speaker 1 (01:06:15):
By the way, she didn't even see her best friend
Oprah Our Beyonce, the vice president.
Speaker 4 (01:06:20):
So once again she didn't see the black.
Speaker 19 (01:06:21):
People speaking of you know.
Speaker 4 (01:06:23):
But you know what's crazy though, Hold on the fact.
Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
We are having conversations about media personalities potentially losing their
job because they are vocal against Donald Trump. Let y'all
know that we are no longer in the democracy. In
the fact that these conversations are the fact that these
conversations are even happening and people are normalizing these conversations.
Let you know that the authoritarian strategy that this administration
(01:06:47):
has implemented is absolutely working in.
Speaker 17 (01:06:50):
Yeah, well, we'll be talking about Beyonce in the next
hour because speaking of personalities, Megan and Kelly had some
things to say about Beyonce.
Speaker 19 (01:06:57):
Crazy, yeah, and because we're gonna get into it.
Speaker 3 (01:07:00):
Okay, all right, we'll do that now. I show the
man who giving a donkey two.
Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
Man for after the hour.
Speaker 1 (01:07:05):
We need a man named Peter Alt to come to
the front of the congregation. We all have to learn
to be patient with children, but he definitely does. We'll
discuss all right.
Speaker 5 (01:07:13):
We'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Cloak, Good morning,
the Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.
Speaker 6 (01:07:23):
Damn the he hoggin.
Speaker 11 (01:07:26):
It's start for donkey.
Speaker 8 (01:07:28):
I mean trying to beat donkey today.
Speaker 10 (01:07:30):
No more.
Speaker 4 (01:07:30):
They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
not making these people do these.
Speaker 6 (01:07:33):
Days called donkey of the day, and it really caught
me off guard. Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey of
the day today?
Speaker 1 (01:07:43):
Well, jess hilarious, Donkey of today for Wednesday August sixth,
It is Wednesday August six Right, I'll be getting my
day trong.
Speaker 4 (01:07:48):
Let me make sure it is Wednesday August sixth.
Speaker 1 (01:07:51):
But donkey today for Wednesday August sixth goes to a
Long Island police officer named Peter Alt. Peter Alt has
been script of his duties, and rightfully so, because I
don't understand public services who simply can't do right by
the public. Okay, firefighters, police officers. When we call you
for assistance, we want you to protect us and serve us. Now, firefighters,
correct me if I'm wrong, but I think your model
(01:08:12):
is always ready. And another one I saw is to
be useful is our wish. Those are great models, but
we need you to live up to those models always.
And Peter aught from the video, I saw.
Speaker 4 (01:08:23):
You did not do that. Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:08:24):
See, there was a ten year old girl and according
to her grandmother, the grandmother's daughter who I'm assuming with
the child's mother, called the police on her after she
had taken away the child's phone, which caused the kid
to flip out, okay, cause it to become emotionally discressed.
Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
Let's go to NBC for New York for the report.
Speaker 19 (01:08:40):
Polase, well, we spoke with.
Speaker 22 (01:08:41):
The grandmother of this ten year old. The grandma wasn't
home at the time when this happened, but she said
that her granddaughter was having an episode. She had become
enraged because her mother had taken away her phone as punishment.
The grandmother was completely stunned to watch this video to
see how this first responder, now identified as a fire chief,
(01:09:03):
treated her granddaughter. Explatives directed at a ten year old
girl on a stretcher, recorded by a witness alarmed by
a first responder's language, shake him out. That first responder
(01:09:23):
identified as North Babylon Volunteer Fire Company Chief Peter Alt.
Speaker 3 (01:09:28):
Maybe it was a blessing.
Speaker 6 (01:09:29):
I wasn't that because I probably would have jumped all
over the sky.
Speaker 22 (01:09:33):
The girl's grandma wasn't home when this happened, She says
her daughter called police for help when the girl became
enraged and out of control. After viewing the video, the
department says Alt has been relieved of his duties while
they investigate calling the conduct.
Speaker 1 (01:09:50):
I'm not judging, okay, but why would you ever call
the police or firefighters.
Speaker 4 (01:09:56):
Because you're a ten year old is emotionally discressed?
Speaker 1 (01:09:58):
Trust me, I overstated, and having an emotionally discressed child,
My nine year old can go from zero to one
hundred over the smallest of things. Okay, You're supposed to
threaten them, all right with the authorities, not actually call them. Okay,
especially when you're in a public place and them kids
getting to get to carrying on, you gotta say ay now,
then people gonna come get us if you don't stop
all that hollering. Knowing dann Well you are heard on't
(01:10:18):
know who them people is. My point is, if you
have an emotionally discressed child, there are other ways to
handle them than by calling authorities. Okay, they got behavioral
therapy for kids starting as early as four years old.
I know those things cost money, but a lot of
places have the sliding and scale fees. You know, you
can go to your local counseling centers. You can check
with university health clinics. There's crisis hotlines you can call.
(01:10:41):
I'm just saying calling the authorities on your ten year
old emotionally discressed child is wowd okay, But nonetheless, the
first response is pulled up and after putting the girl
on what looks like a scratcher. You heard one of
the first responders, Peter Alt, he started talking to this
young girl crazy. Can we can we hear some of that?
(01:11:09):
The hell Jesus Christ? He said, shut the f up.
It's like this with you every f and week. And
then the young girl goes, I don't want to go.
I want to go back home. Man firefighters a day
to put out fires. Okay, as far as I know,
they aren't there to be. Therapists are counselors, which is
(01:11:29):
you know why I completely agree with mental health professionals,
behavioral therapists being sent out with the police officers and
firefighters to prevent things like this. Okay, this is one
of the things I was talking about on my view
with Lard Trump the other day. That firefighter Peter Awt.
He sounded emotionally discressed. He sounded like he's got some
other things going on in his life and he's projecting
whatever pain, whatever hurt he's feeling onto that little girl.
(01:11:52):
Any of us with kids know, you got to be
present and you have to take a deep breath sometimes
before you react, because these kids will try every bit
of patience you got.
Speaker 4 (01:12:00):
Okay, you know, and I know Peter Aught.
Speaker 1 (01:12:03):
Isn't some type of mental health professional, but you gotta
have some type of empathy. All right, you're an adult
and the kid is ten. Okay, the girl's family called
for help to calm the child down. I don't know
why they would call y'all, but telling the kid to
shut the f up. It's like this with you every
f and week. That lets me know he knows this
child or has had experiences with this child. If this
child is having breakdowns every week, and she needs some
(01:12:25):
form of behavioral therapy. Okay, I did one Google search
and AI gave me several options for free or low
cost child therapy services. You know, in the Long Island area,
you got the Nassau County Mental Health Services, you got
Suffolx County Mental Health Services, community mental health centers. By
the way, she's ten, Where the school counsel is at,
where the school psychologists. Okay, I know it's summertime, but
(01:12:45):
damn all right, listen, man, The moral of the story is,
let's be patient with kids. Okay, it's tough, I know,
but we are adults, they are kids. Try to find
out a reason for the child's behavior. Okay, if your
child is acting out. If a child is acting out,
is probably because they're going through something. Get them some
professional help. Okay, Peter Aught, you're volunteer firefighter.
Speaker 4 (01:13:06):
You clearly not built for this.
Speaker 1 (01:13:08):
Because I'm listening to you talk to this young girl
and I'm realizing you need professional help your damn self.
Speaker 4 (01:13:14):
Please give Peter Alt the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons.
Speaker 3 (01:13:17):
Oh no, you are the dog.
Speaker 15 (01:13:22):
The.
Speaker 3 (01:13:26):
Dog all the day, all right.
Speaker 1 (01:13:36):
Also, Also, why the other adults letting him talk like
that told him shut the f up. Somebody should have
told him shut the f up for telling the little
girl shut the f up?
Speaker 6 (01:13:45):
And what do you mean they do this for her
every week, like it's the same thing with you every week?
What they mean?
Speaker 4 (01:13:50):
What do you mean exactly?
Speaker 1 (01:13:52):
Because I'm looking at the video, there's plenty of adults there.
Speaker 4 (01:13:56):
Why nobody else grown ain't tell him to shut the
hell up?
Speaker 7 (01:13:59):
This girl is only ten, Like like somebody who don't
know the story, they would think that's her father or something.
Speaker 11 (01:14:05):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 7 (01:14:06):
Yeah, because that sounds like like a parent talking to
their child a little bit, you know what I mean.
But the fact that he's not even her parent or
related to her anything, it's just weird. It's like he
don't even care about what she's going through.
Speaker 5 (01:14:19):
That's right, stupid. All right, well, thank you for that, donkey.
Today's show the mine, Yes indeed.
Speaker 19 (01:14:26):
Oh oh all right, So look.
Speaker 7 (01:14:30):
The topic right, because we've been fishing for a topic,
but the topic should be what is one of the
craziest things you've done to flex?
Speaker 10 (01:14:38):
Right?
Speaker 6 (01:14:39):
Because it was a video that just hit shave and.
Speaker 7 (01:14:46):
Right, somebody tried to act like they was going outside
to get their dogs, you know, their dogs, but showing
their house never showed the dogs.
Speaker 3 (01:14:54):
It was only a landscape of the house.
Speaker 19 (01:14:56):
He got to the dogs. Eventually the dogs were in
their own house.
Speaker 5 (01:14:58):
Basically the dogs.
Speaker 7 (01:14:59):
Yeah, the dogs was in there, two little apartments, but
the dogs didn't even care.
Speaker 17 (01:15:04):
We got audio of dj MV. This is the man
that we're talking about who hit the shaved room.
Speaker 6 (01:15:10):
It was, but it was definitely envy.
Speaker 5 (01:15:11):
Everybody want a dog until it's this type of weather
like this is ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (01:15:15):
There should be no reason where nobody in this house
wants to help you.
Speaker 5 (01:15:19):
Everybody wants a dog until this right here happens.
Speaker 4 (01:15:23):
Right nobody, let's look at us. That's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (01:15:27):
Out here.
Speaker 4 (01:15:28):
You have some getting soaked.
Speaker 3 (01:15:29):
I couldn't get it, umbrella about blas.
Speaker 5 (01:15:32):
I gotta carry both of these dogs, which makes no
god damn sense.
Speaker 3 (01:15:36):
So, like I said, I'm coming.
Speaker 5 (01:15:38):
Everybody wants a dog, got a practice, let's stay in
here for us.
Speaker 3 (01:15:43):
Well no, he ran out. Let me describe what happened.
Speaker 4 (01:15:47):
So that sound like a point of.
Speaker 17 (01:15:52):
Everybody living a cancer until you got that possibility and
all that. My friend was like, what brother of Jersey
he living. Laura, I don't look like that where you live,
I said, I don't have DJ Evey money.
Speaker 3 (01:16:01):
That's different.
Speaker 11 (01:16:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:16:02):
So basically he was acting like he was walking his
dogs when he.
Speaker 7 (01:16:05):
Was showing he was acting like he was trying to
go save the dogs from the rain, which dogs love.
And by the way, because they ran around, they thought
it was a game of catching go right, So he
was trying to show everybody that basically that he live
in a castle, but he tried to make a same
like he was going out there to get the dogs
because somebody.
Speaker 6 (01:16:21):
Will help him bring the dogs back.
Speaker 5 (01:16:23):
And if you follow me on my TikTok, I put
my you know I bought two puppies and I showed
my interaction with his puppies and raising these puppies and
training these puppies, and my kids wanted puppies. And what
I was saying in that video is everybody likes the
puppies until the weather gets disgusted.
Speaker 3 (01:16:38):
And I got to do it on my own.
Speaker 5 (01:16:40):
That's what I was saying with the dogs, and same
thing on a TikTok, I promote my car show and
bust down how it is to do a car show
and planning a car show in August sixteenth, which is
next way.
Speaker 13 (01:16:49):
And when you do them car.
Speaker 17 (01:16:50):
Show videos, you switched cards per video per day the
video matched the card the other day you saw the ten.
You saw that video rec with the ten in the
ten card Behind flexing, we got Carli.
Speaker 3 (01:17:03):
That was ivory. That was an ivory color.
Speaker 7 (01:17:05):
But the crazy thing is if you were so focused
on the dogs, why the camera wasn't turned around?
Speaker 6 (01:17:10):
The dogs were on the grass envy it was it
was south.
Speaker 3 (01:17:13):
What is the concident you guys want to ask, was.
Speaker 7 (01:17:15):
The craziest way you've ever flexed? The craziest thing you've
done to flex was?
Speaker 3 (01:17:20):
I wasn't flexing. I was showing you know what? Eight
hundred flex Washington five to one.
Speaker 19 (01:17:26):
Where's been a homie to pull out the money when
the girls come around?
Speaker 5 (01:17:29):
Like the house, I'm not talking to us. The breakfast
club in the morning, the breakfast club.
Speaker 23 (01:17:41):

five eight five, one oh five to one This morning.
They had been calling me flex Washington, Flexington and a
host of others.
Speaker 7 (01:18:04):
And why is this just because you made a video
the other day that hit the shave room that made
it seem like you was trying to go save your
dogs from the rain.
Speaker 6 (01:18:12):
I don't know who the hell think dogs got to
be saved from the rain.
Speaker 7 (01:18:15):
But you had the video a selfie style right to
show the big castle that you live in in the
back instead of showing the dogs. The objective was to
show you rescuing the dogs from the rain. I finally
got them from their one bedroom apartment.
Speaker 3 (01:18:28):
Bad training the dog.
Speaker 7 (01:18:31):
You wanted us to even see how big the cages,
but he stood in the cage and DJV is not
not sure I put that cage together.
Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
I got it from track to supply.
Speaker 19 (01:18:38):
Think about that you were standing in the.
Speaker 5 (01:18:40):
Cave and how much is I put them together myself
from track to supply, And I was showing the process.
I've talked about these two puppies that my kids and
family wanted. We got these dogs, and now nobody helps
me with these dogs. I have to do it every
day and train these dogs.
Speaker 19 (01:18:54):
Those are some big puppies.
Speaker 3 (01:18:56):
Imagine they were born on March.
Speaker 1 (01:18:58):
Now, imagine a plane flying over that house and seeing
you in that cage and thinking to themselves, oh.
Speaker 4 (01:19:02):
My god, they got dominicans in cages in New Jersey.
Speaker 6 (01:19:06):
It was big. Did you see the.
Speaker 4 (01:19:07):
Cage crazy cages? I didn't. I didn't see the cage.
I saw him running in the backyard door man.
Speaker 5 (01:19:14):
But it was It's what I did to, you know,
to show people that when when your kids say they
want dogs, just know that it's all on you get
on another level.
Speaker 7 (01:19:22):
You could have came in here and got it off
your chest about that. You did not have to make
a selfie style video to show your house in the
back never dropped.
Speaker 3 (01:19:29):
The phone was for that. It was it was for
my TikTok.
Speaker 5 (01:19:31):

What's the craziest thing you did to flex?
Speaker 8 (01:21:02):
So check this out right?
Speaker 15 (01:21:03):
This is back back in my hey day, I say
about two thousand. I was really jocking this girl, trying
to get it to go out. She finally accepted it
were on a date, right, so I'm really trying to flex.
I checked my bank account on speakerphone in front of her,
just to watch her reaction. And I think around that
time it was about, you know, one hundred and four,
(01:21:23):
one hundred and.
Speaker 3 (01:21:23):
Four thousand, two thousand.
Speaker 15 (01:21:26):
Okay, this is my contracting days. You know, with ninety
nine you was running factors and all that. It's all
legit now, But uh I did that was the craziest
thing I did to flex.
Speaker 19 (01:21:39):
What did she say when you did that?
Speaker 4 (01:21:41):
What was that reaction?
Speaker 8 (01:21:42):
Oh? Oh?
Speaker 15 (01:21:43):
The attitude changed. The attitude went straight from uh you know,
really sidiity to is this something serious with us?
Speaker 8 (01:21:54):
Do you see yourself.
Speaker 1 (01:21:55):
Going forward with this?
Speaker 15 (01:21:56):
And I was like, yeah, okay, yeah, sure.
Speaker 4 (01:21:58):
Sure did you hit?
Speaker 8 (01:22:00):
Later?
Speaker 4 (01:22:01):
Did you hit? Did you hit?
Speaker 15 (01:22:02):
Look, I'm not gonna kitch and tell.
Speaker 3 (01:22:08):
Worked out?
Speaker 6 (01:22:09):
It didn't work out, okay, married married to it to
this day. That's why.
Speaker 8 (01:22:14):
No, no, he.
Speaker 3 (01:22:18):
Come on, and who's this yo?
Speaker 16 (01:22:19):
You know the vibes and mellows?
Speaker 8 (01:22:21):
How you doing?
Speaker 11 (01:22:22):
Mellow?
Speaker 6 (01:22:22):
What's up? What's the craziest thing you ever did? The flex?
Like your boy envy?
Speaker 16 (01:22:27):
Oh I'm not even the first off? Can we drop
on the cous box for envy, for flexing so hard.
That was big fire.
Speaker 6 (01:22:35):
Signing video.
Speaker 4 (01:22:37):
Fire wasn't wasn't bake fire.
Speaker 16 (01:22:41):
It's alright, told tickets, But I'm not going to hold
me back in the days, in my younger days, I
was on some drakes, on some Drake pomis, you know,
no key. I was like, Yo, you want shots for
the building or the song?
Speaker 11 (01:22:52):
And you know what I mean.
Speaker 16 (01:22:53):
I shouldn't have did that, and I had to pretty
much keep ordering shots until I direct deposit here Dan,
you know what I mean. And I feel like that's
the wildest thing I've ever done, because I was sitting
there for additional hour and a half.
Speaker 17 (01:23:06):
Bro, what you would have did it deposit? It was
like later like your bank, you know what I mean?
Sometimes to be off like what you would.
Speaker 8 (01:23:13):
Have done might even hold you.
Speaker 16 (01:23:15):
We was in a karaoke bar and I can sing.
Speaker 8 (01:23:16):
I would have distracted them.
Speaker 16 (01:23:20):
Word I would have you know what I mean? They
called me rooms in the hood. I might even gonna
lie to you.
Speaker 3 (01:23:26):
Like I'm being bullied today by Jess and Lauren.
Speaker 1 (01:23:31):
I was.
Speaker 3 (01:23:32):
I was minding my business the other day talking to
my TikTok.
Speaker 4 (01:23:35):
You posted a public video. That's criticism, yep.
Speaker 5 (01:23:41):
And I ain't talking about my dogs that I just
I'm raising that I got them as puppies. They were
born on March Knife and I was showing you know,
everybody out there, you know your kids want dog, your
wife want a dog, and then when it's time to
raise these dogs, or rains or the weather's nice, nobody
wants to help. And I was showing me running to
get the dogs from outside bringing them inside, and just
I was flexing, but I was.
Speaker 6 (01:24:00):
Because the dogs was having the time of their life.
Speaker 1 (01:24:02):
Honey.
Speaker 7 (01:24:02):
They was not trying to be rescued. It wasn't at
the door clawing and scraping and scratch and daddy trying to.
Speaker 6 (01:24:07):
Get in the heaven. They will literally out there living
their lives.
Speaker 7 (01:24:10):
And this man selfie style recorded a video to show
the castle that he and his family lives in.
Speaker 3 (01:24:15):
That is that is not true. I was just showing
me raising my dogs. Hello, who's this way?
Speaker 8 (01:24:21):
This is Jamee Man from the seven five to seven?
Speaker 6 (01:24:23):
What's up? James? What's the craziest thing you've done? To flex?
Speaker 8 (01:24:27):
So listening? Want me that be doing a flex? Sam?
I'm married and I got a white sweat. I play
a role for my homeboys to help them. Flex in
front of us showed you that they're trying to pull.
So what what what we do is whenever they get
around some girls they're text men and be like, bro,
just call me real quick and ask the ball like
(01:24:48):
three thousand dollars. They'll put me on speakerphone my caller like, yo, man,
I I'm messed up right now. I need probably like
three bands from you. Can you cash out to me
real quick? And they in front of the shorty is
why they're doing it. So as soon as the girl said,
I know it ain't right and and these are probably
not the girls they need to be with. But for
some reason, whenever those girls seeing me ask for that
(01:25:11):
bread to ball like it's a green light from my
home boy and everything, no.
Speaker 6 (01:25:17):
Shame, but for three k they going like that's three
hundred thousand. Hello said three.
Speaker 4 (01:25:22):
Thousand, Good morning.
Speaker 1 (01:25:24):
I thought three thousand ain't No three hundred three thousand,
three thousand. You can't even cash up? No, three hundred
thousand was three cash up? Three hundred thousand, three thousand.
I need to figure what's the craziest thing you did?
The flex bro firsot ofball.
Speaker 8 (01:25:39):
I watched that video by j and I was looking
for the dogs and he was unintentional a lot of
landscape exactly.
Speaker 3 (01:25:46):
You saw the football field that I was running, thank you,
I was running before.
Speaker 8 (01:25:51):
I was like, what's your thoughts for my biggest flex
was I'm unintentional as well. I gained so much weight
and then enjoyed this program called Elite Technique and lost
over one hundred and ten that I made the page
and down low key when uh one time, well, I
guess the one time things viral went for a second
(01:26:12):
and that was a suck for me.
Speaker 4 (01:26:13):
I respect that though. See that's a real flex. That
losing one hundred pounds and getting in shape. That's the dope.
That's a dope flex. That's a good flex.
Speaker 6 (01:26:20):
That is that is that's not crazy, that's actually admirable.
Speaker 4 (01:26:24):
That's great.
Speaker 1 (01:26:25):
Yeah, yeah, what's going to be that's actually, by the way,
that's actually real inspiration. You know, like you know how
you see like Meek Mill used to always post tough
and be like this is for inspirational purposes only that
material stuff ain't inspiring.
Speaker 4 (01:26:37):
Nobody inspire somebody to rob you. But you show somebody.
Speaker 19 (01:26:44):
Inspire, it'd be like okay, wowle all this off of
something he loved to do.
Speaker 5 (01:26:49):
Like the biggest inspiration I think when somebody comes from
like Meek Mill comes and he works and he does
it the right way, and he shows the things that
he was able to purchase and buy, whether it's a home,
whether it was a car or.
Speaker 3 (01:26:59):
A home force or whatever, maybe is inspiration.
Speaker 1 (01:27:02):
Like you don't think that, Yeah, you don't think hold on,
you don't think that inspires nobody to be like, yeah,
we're gonna rob him when we see himtraight.
Speaker 5 (01:27:08):
I mean anybody everybody say some people are I mean people,
but he didn't. He did it for the kids that say,
you know what, I can get.
Speaker 11 (01:27:16):
Out and do it the right way.
Speaker 4 (01:27:17):
Just like just like I talk about, I get it.
Speaker 5 (01:27:19):
Clue was my inspiration to show that he was able
to get out of Queens the right way and do
it and he was able to show me different of
DJing so for me to get it.
Speaker 1 (01:27:28):
But the act like but the haters, I get it.
But the act like, but the act like you're not
exciting the wolves too?
Speaker 4 (01:27:33):
Is crazy?
Speaker 3 (01:27:34):
Yeah, I mean you're gonna excite the wolves regardless of
whatever you do, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (01:27:37):
But I will say that people like Meek Mill, people
like Hove growing up, people like a clue for myself,
like they were inspirations because you've seen where they came from,
how they did it, they did it the right way,
and they were able to obtain the things that they wanted.
Speaker 3 (01:27:49):
That is inspiration for sure.
Speaker 1 (01:27:51):
Yes, But we also have to be honest and say
that showing off on social media does make you a
target as well. It does, and a lot of y'all
be getting Yeah, and a lot of y'all be getting
robbed for stuff you don't even know.
Speaker 5 (01:28:02):
Yeah, that is true too, but yeah, but it is
an inspiration. And you know they all hate is regardless
what you do. But there's a lot of people out
there with kids that even even you know, we've inspired
a lot of people to do things that you know,
for myself, I know I inspired a bunch of people
of DJ.
Speaker 3 (01:28:16):
I know you guys inspired a bunch of people.
Speaker 5 (01:28:18):
I'm sure you inspired a bunch of people from from
South Carolina where you're home, Like, damn this he came
from the same.
Speaker 3 (01:28:23):
Place, so I'm from now with.
Speaker 17 (01:28:25):
Your wife Charlotte Magne, with the own crystal crystal that
made it in my chest. And somebody was like, Charlemagne
got bread just because people see, but it's inspired.
Speaker 4 (01:28:36):
Won't stop with the line.
Speaker 7 (01:28:38):
Stop with the line, because you're just saying people see
you invested in these businesses and doesn't inspire them.
Speaker 19 (01:28:44):
You might not stand in front of a car that
matches your shirt.
Speaker 4 (01:28:52):
That's stupid, but that's dope.
Speaker 19 (01:28:54):
I mean, you know they be matching. Had to tell him, clue,
all of them.
Speaker 7 (01:28:58):
It's good for some people inspire to be like these people,
and some people doing spot inspire to rob these people.
Because I'm telling you, Jerome, the house that my baby father,
it was a house I was living in a couple
of years ago, and Rome asked me, can he come
to stay tonight? And y'all know we ain't on that
type of time, so I was like, all right, yeah, cool,
we probably gotta put out one of his girls.
Speaker 6 (01:29:16):
So I was like, all right, cool, we come over there.
Speaker 7 (01:29:17):
And the next morning I wake up, he is doing
a selfie video just like Envy was in the bat
and he was no, he wasn't chasing no dogs. He
was chasing poon poon And he was like, yeah, I'm
just in my new spot and all that, and then
I come on my friend and he's like, yo.
Speaker 6 (01:29:34):
I'm on the phone, and then act like he was
on like he was living in this house, this big
house that he had just moved in to get this girl.
Speaker 3 (01:29:43):
Did you get the girl?
Speaker 7 (01:29:44):
No, I ain't get the damn girl. Sorry, but I'm like, yo,
what But that's not the first time he did that.
He did in flex with a lot of my stuff,
in my cars, in my houses. That's why I said, Roome.
He went from being my baby father, so my little brother.
And people don't get it. Sometimes inspiration most like, like.
Speaker 5 (01:29:57):
Everybody has seen Lauren start working here with the horrible
looking wigs, and if they see it grow and then.
Speaker 17 (01:30:02):
And then you cut your shirt match your car, it's
okay because they also seen you grow over.
Speaker 19 (01:30:07):
There with them arms as well. You went from you
know what I mean, And it was from.
Speaker 4 (01:30:14):
Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1 (01:30:15):
I don't encourage flexing, okay, flat flat flexing is not
my thing. Yeah, I just I just think it excites
the wolves too much.
Speaker 3 (01:30:24):
Anybody gets excited.
Speaker 4 (01:30:26):
Make you a target.
Speaker 19 (01:30:27):
Stay safe and stay at the rain.
Speaker 3 (01:30:28):
You know, and get your license here.
Speaker 4 (01:30:32):
Please don't and.
Speaker 1 (01:30:33):
Please and Please, don't get robbed for stuff you don't own.
That's that's that's formal mental illness to me. If you're
walking down the street and you see somebody's fanom and
you take a picture in front of it, and you know,
are you find somebody's money or fake money and you
holding in your hand.
Speaker 4 (01:30:47):
Don't get robbed for stuff you don't even know. That's ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (01:30:50):
All right, you're right, But let the dogs run wild
and free envy. We don't need another video like that.
Speaker 3 (01:30:55):
I'm gonna show another video. I won't show you the
video this morning when they ran for me this morning.
We have the ladies with Lauren.
Speaker 19 (01:31:00):
We do speaking of stuff that you own with yours?
Speaker 17 (01:31:02):
What's not Megan Kelly is talking about Beyonce's body, whether
it's hers or not.
Speaker 19 (01:31:06):
We're gonnawn. We're gonna get on into the things.
Speaker 11 (01:31:11):
All right.
Speaker 5 (01:31:11):
We'll get into that. Next is the Breakfast Clove Water,
the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
Lauren becoming straight fast.
Speaker 3 (01:31:22):
She gets them from somebody that knows somebody.
Speaker 6 (01:31:25):
I'm a long girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Speaker 4 (01:31:28):
She'd be having the latest on the.
Speaker 11 (01:31:32):
Latest with Lauren La Rosa.
Speaker 1 (01:31:33):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you
have a little bit of everything on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 19 (01:31:40):
Alrighty y'all.
Speaker 17 (01:31:41):
So there's been a conversation online that Megan Kelly, who
is you know, what do I call our broadcast personality?
Speaker 6 (01:31:49):
Somebody yes, that she started in person.
Speaker 17 (01:31:52):
So Beyonce posted a Levi's ad that she did recently
this week and she's in all dentim of course because
it's leave Eyes. And there's been a huge conversation around
Sidney Sweeney and who's an actor producer who didn't an
ad for American Eagle. Now, when Sidney Sweeney did the ad,
the like text on the ad or the theme of
(01:32:12):
the ad was Sidney Sweeney has good genes J E. A. N. S.
But people, I'm sorry, yeah, but people took it the
wrong way and not the wrong way. I guess the
right way depend on how I don't know. People were
upset because they were saying that this is racially charged
because what are good genes like?
Speaker 19 (01:32:28):
You get it because she's white.
Speaker 1 (01:32:30):
Well, it was the first of all, I think the
backlash was ridiculous, but it was the commentary around the
video as well, because if you, if you listen to
the commentary, she says something about her eyes and then
it says.
Speaker 19 (01:32:40):
Blond hair, blue eyes.
Speaker 10 (01:32:42):
Yes.
Speaker 17 (01:32:42):
Now I will say American Eagle came out when all
the backlash was happening and they said Sidney Sweeney has
great genes.
Speaker 19 (01:32:48):
It isn't always about the genes her gens.
Speaker 17 (01:32:50):
Her story will continue to celebrate how everyone wears their
American egle gens with confidence, their way. Great geans look
good on everyone, right, So they're like, listen, y'all are
reaching at nothing. We weren't trying to be racial at all,
whatever the case may be. But anyway, So Megan Kelly
gets online because Beyonce posts her photo and her good jeans,
and Megan Kelly says, this is opposite of what Sidney
Sweeney's ad. This is opposite of Sidney Sweeny's ad. Quite clearly,
(01:33:13):
there is nothing neutral about Beyonce. Everything from her image,
to her fame, to her success to her look below
is bought and paid for. Screams, artificial, fake, enhanced, trying
too hard?
Speaker 3 (01:33:24):
Who's that that?
Speaker 19 (01:33:25):
Megan Kelly?
Speaker 6 (01:33:25):
And Kelly.
Speaker 17 (01:33:27):
Yeah, former anchor, wasn't she on Fox? Dude was at
one point where was her show Try to make okay anyway? Yes,
Megan Kelly so yeah, so that's she was.
Speaker 19 (01:33:37):
Yeah, that started.
Speaker 17 (01:33:38):
That started a conversation because people are like, first of all,
who were you to talk about anybody's body. Secondly, now
people are comparing the two ads, Sidney Sweeney and Beyonce, uh,
just because they're saying if Sidney Sweeney could have this
ad and do these things, and y'all want to say,
it's not about anything but her looks and how great
she's doing for the brand, because allegedly the stock went
(01:33:58):
up America Ego stock went up once Sidney Sweeney's ad dropped.
Speaker 19 (01:34:01):
Why can't Beyonce do her? Levis and Magan Kelly stout her.
Speaker 7 (01:34:03):
Business exactly and Magan Kelly U ad never with that chisel,
goddamn faith, don't play, don't do that.
Speaker 17 (01:34:11):
Yeah, and Lizzo entered the chat as well. But this
was before the Beyonce back and forth. This was when
Sidney Sweeney first posted it. Lizze posted herself into Levi
and she said, she said, if the Democrats won the election,
because it turned into like Democrats versus Republican Because there
was a story that came out where they went and
found Sydney Sweedens Sidney Sweeney's voting history and allegedly she
(01:34:33):
was re listed as a Republican voter and all the things.
Speaker 7 (01:34:36):
But Lizzo was being funny and it was funny. I know,
Sidney's Sweeney is probably like yo, I didn't.
Speaker 6 (01:34:41):
Even do nothing.
Speaker 3 (01:34:42):
All I did was just post a picture, take a pictrick.
Speaker 7 (01:34:45):
Sure, just just I got a great opportunity to do
an AD for American Eagle and this is what y'all
got from it.
Speaker 3 (01:34:52):
Yeah, literally, people are too oke.
Speaker 1 (01:34:54):
I can't I can't wait until people find out how
much of this is really just social engineering, you know, man,
because you know who wins in all of this, American
Eagle and lead US.
Speaker 4 (01:35:03):
I would do the same thing if I did an ad.
If you put an.
Speaker 1 (01:35:05):
Ad out in your ad, don't get some type of reaction,
and honestly, backlash is probably the best thing nowadays.
Speaker 4 (01:35:12):
It probably wasn't a good ADD.
Speaker 1 (01:35:13):
If you put an AD out and don't nobody respond
to it in no way, shape or form, it's probably
not a good ACD because when the last time I
AD came out. And I want you to think about
this because maybe y'all can help me. When the last
time I ad came out and people just were simply like, man,
that was a dope ad.
Speaker 4 (01:35:26):
That was great. That ad was fantastic. When does that
happen super Bowl time?
Speaker 3 (01:35:32):
Yeah, I would say super Bowl time, not.
Speaker 6 (01:35:34):
This Super Bowl mask that's to be so good. Now
they're not. They're trash now. So you know, I don't
see what I'm saying. Yeah, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (01:35:43):
Well, so if there's if there's not, if there's not
backlash and fake outrage around, your ad, is probably.
Speaker 11 (01:35:48):
Not a good ad.
Speaker 7 (01:35:49):
The last time I seen a good ad was when
Chance the Rapping did the Doritos ad during the Super
Bowl a couple.
Speaker 6 (01:35:54):
Of years ago, like like years ago.
Speaker 5 (01:35:58):
Yeah, but it was lit.
Speaker 6 (01:35:58):
He was wrapping his ass off.
Speaker 8 (01:36:00):
Well.
Speaker 17 (01:36:01):
Speaking of ads, the VMA's are going to go down
on September seventh, and they and now some of the nominations.
Beyonce is actually up for with Kendrick Lamar and Tyler Swift.
They're up for Artists of the Year period. Lady God
Guy's leading with twelve nominations. Eleven nominations, Bruno Mars ten nominations,
Kendrick Lamar including video of the year for not like us,

but it's music.
Speaker 5 (01:36:28):
Y'all.
Speaker 19 (01:36:28):
Saw the video of Lotto. This kind of is an
ad for the jewelry store.
Speaker 6 (01:36:31):
Okay with that.
Speaker 17 (01:36:31):
Lotto was in a jewelry store and they asked her
a question. I want you guys to listen to the
questions if you can answer.
Speaker 11 (01:36:36):
The forty fifth president of US and the forty seventh
president of USA, they both have the same patents.
Speaker 4 (01:36:44):
Is that possible?
Speaker 6 (01:36:45):
The twelfth got the same the forty fifth president of
the USA in the forty seventh president got the same parents.
Speaker 4 (01:36:53):
Yes, it's a mystery.
Speaker 6 (01:36:55):
They got the same parents because God made us.
Speaker 17 (01:36:59):
All I got to say here, because we're not only
we're not only forty seventh president it.
Speaker 11 (01:37:07):
Is you want to know that has such So the
the fifth president was Donald Tromp and the forty seventh
president is also Donald.
Speaker 7 (01:37:22):
I told you you probably didn't understand because I didn't
understand what he was saying. Because like when you call
one of the okay, all right, no, no, no, please,
when you call us in the service and you get
somebody you don't understand you be like, yo, can I
speak to your many as to somebody else?
Speaker 6 (01:37:38):
She probably didn't understand what he was talking about.
Speaker 7 (01:37:40):
I ain't go old with you, and not a lot
of statement representatives representative.
Speaker 3 (01:37:46):
All God's children were all God's children.
Speaker 1 (01:37:48):
And by the way, it's always okay to say I
don't know, I don't know what is the perfectly Yeah,
either one is perfectly fine.
Speaker 6 (01:37:58):
Can you get somebody else to repeat the question?
Speaker 20 (01:38:00):
