Speaker 10 (04:11):
Hey, Good morning in v Charlemagne the God and Jess hilarious.
How are you guys? Happy Friday?

Speaker 4 (04:16):
Thank you, Bill be Friday.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
That's black and Holly favor awesome.

Speaker 10 (04:19):
Here's what's trending in the news this morning for you.

Speaker 11 (04:21):
So. Democrat Senate minority Leader Chuck Schumer says he will
vote to advance the GOP's six month funding bill that
passed the House in order to stop a government shutdown tonight.
So let's take a listen to some of his commentary
on that decision.

Speaker 12 (04:35):
There is nobody in the world, nobody who wants to
shut the government down more than Donald Trump and more
than Elon Musk. While the cr bill is very bad,
the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that
are much much worse.

Speaker 13 (04:52):
Now.

Speaker 11 (04:53):
Schumer said in a floor speech that there are no
winners in a government shutdown, adding that the bill is
a terrible option, but that he believes allowing Trump to
take more power through a shutdown is a far worse option.
So the comments from the Senate Minority leader are a
contrast for ones that were made just to day earlier
when he said that Democrats would not let it pass

(05:13):
and so if the Senate passes the bill, it would
then of course go to President Trump's desk for a signature.

Speaker 10 (05:19):
What do you guys think about it?

Speaker 3 (05:20):
I mean, you know, per usual, the party of inaction.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
The Democrats have failed to protect the interest city American people.
And you know why, you know dem suck at messaging
because they never talking about nothing and they do nothing.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
So guess what to.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Me, they all got to go like like them don't
just have a messaging problem, they got a leadership problem.
The Chuck Schumers of the world, the ha km Jefferies,
they should all stop step down and any of them
who is in fighting for the people and standard with
the party should be primary. Like how can you say
that the bill sucks but you're passing it anyway? Like
you're not gonna even try to, you know, present something different,
try to negotiate nothing, Just it sucks, but we're gonna

(05:55):
pass it anyway.

Speaker 10 (05:57):
Yeah, that's been the commentary. Basically.

Speaker 11 (05:58):
I think a lot of the world agrees with you
on that, because it's it just seems as though the
Democrats can't come together on any things.

Speaker 4 (06:05):
So yeah, nothing at all.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
No, So what's the point of voting for them? Literally?

Speaker 11 (06:12):
Well, all right, Well, a federal judge has ordered some
fire federal employees to be reinstated. Now, a California federal
judge is demanding that the Trump administration rehires some fired
federal employees. US District Judge William Ausa found the firing
of probationary employees from six federal agencies last month to
be unlawful. He said the Office of Personnel Management and

(06:35):
its acting director did not have the authority to issue
the directive to fire the workers. The agency includes the
Department of Veterans Affairs, Agricultural Defense, Energy, Interior, and Treasury.
So the judge said, it is a sad day when
our government would fire some good employees and say it
was based on performance when they know good and well
that's a lie. So the Justice Department indicated that it

(06:58):
will appeal this ruling to the ninth US Circuit Court.

Speaker 10 (07:02):
Of Appeals.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
That judge name, his.

Speaker 10 (07:05):
Name is Judge William Alsip.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
Dropping a cluse bond of Jude Williams. That's a man
that cares about people.

Speaker 10 (07:11):
Now he's spent on business with that one.

Speaker 8 (07:13):
That's right.

Speaker 11 (07:14):
And we have a story on Trump threatening a two
hundred percent tariff on European Union alcohol products.

Speaker 10 (07:20):
Not Trump, yes, the liquor. He says that he will implement.

Speaker 11 (07:26):
A two hundred percent tariff on all alcoholic products from
the European Union. In a post on truth Social he
said that it would be in response to the fifty
percent tariff on whiskey implemented by the EU. And we
have some commentary from the President during a recent White
House press briefing on the US regaining its wealth.

Speaker 10 (07:44):
Let's take a listen.

Speaker 14 (07:45):
April second is going to be a very big day
for the United States of America. The United States of
America is going to take back a lot of what
was stolen from it by other countries and by frankly
and competent US leadership grossly in cop on it.

Speaker 15 (08:01):
Well.

Speaker 11 (08:02):
The President said the Union was created quote for the
sole purpose of taking advantage of the US. He added
that the tariff will be great for champagne and wine
businesses across the country. It all comes after both the
EU and Canada responded with tariffs of their own after
President Trump placed a twenty five percent tariff on steel
and aluminum imports. So you know, the the US is

(08:23):
the world's largest importer of wine and champagne, and we
imported nearly four point nine billion dollars worth of wine
each year.

Speaker 10 (08:30):
So damn, that's a big deal.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
I haven't had a drink since before Martin Luther King
Junior Day anyway, I think that Sunday before.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
Martin Moving King Junior Day. So because I got to
think that will.

Speaker 11 (08:40):
Effect You think that will affect how often people drink
if they got to pay that much?

Speaker 4 (08:46):
Yeah, then come people drink. They they're gonna drink, that's all.
It's just gonna be cheap stuff.

Speaker 8 (08:53):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Yeah, they gonna they gonna switch. They gonna find the
cheapest option.

Speaker 8 (08:56):
I know that much.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
Right, that's right.

Speaker 11 (08:58):
Well, that's your front page news on bree Wood And
coming up next hour, we'll talk about New York's Governor
Cafe Hoche when you're back of the woods. She's headed
to the White House this morning to meet with the
President about New York's sanctuary city status.

Speaker 4 (09:10):

Speaker 17 (09:44):
I got a question for you, Yes, sir, good morning.
By the way, brother, I've seen me speaking a lot
about Democrats and how they like they not putting in
the action of stuff that you want them to put into.
I be feeling like the Democrats don't step up on
a lot of stuff because they being like people, be

(10:05):
in their pockets.

Speaker 15 (10:06):
You feel what I'm saying, like a lot of.

Speaker 17 (10:08):
A lot of other instities or whatever be paying for
stuff so they can't speak up and beat themselves or
represent what they want to represent, like on the bills
and stuff.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Oh, I agree with you, Like you know, everybody talking
about elon Muskin, you know, the oligarchy, Like all of
a sudden they want to have these conversations as that
hasn't been happening forever in politics.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
See, I think everybody money in their pocket and.

Speaker 17 (10:32):
For the big part of the reason, like Trump was
able to come in and change the stuff that he changed,
Like he he backed a big part of his own campaign.

Speaker 15 (10:42):
You know what I'm saying, Like he.

Speaker 17 (10:43):
Didn't have to take money from a lot of people,
so he didn't have those restrictions on Okay, I'm gonna
back you, but don't do this or you know what
I'm saying, like I'll give you this hundred meal, but
don't pass this meal. Like he got his own money,
so he kind of gets to do it.

Speaker 15 (10:58):
He set for what to do.

Speaker 4 (11:00):
Well, no, not in this case, you know.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
I mean Elon must donated over a couple hundred million dollars,
you know, and you clearly you clearly see how he's
running the tables right now.

Speaker 17 (11:11):
No, I understand. I understand that what I'm saying is
those those other people where there be pharmaceutical companies are
you know how the politics thing is, like it's always
somebody who has to think. Yeah, like it's always somebody
in the background who got an arterial motive, and uh,
the representatives can't do what they're really supposed.

Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details, sometimes you
have a little bit of everything.

Speaker 6 (17:37):
It's the latest on the Breakfast Club. Talk to me,
ll cool Bay.

Speaker 21 (17:43):
Yes, So Diddy, Diddy and CNN are going at it
right now. Diddy's illegal team is claiming that CNN altered
the video, that that Cassie video that came out of
him beating her Cassie in the hotel, the twenty sixteen video.
They're saying that it was altered, that CNN put it
through this like free editing app and they sped it
up so that the events that we saw happened faster

(18:06):
than how they happened in real time?

Speaker 3 (18:08):
Why did that matter?

Speaker 10 (18:09):
Does that change anything?

Speaker 21 (18:10):
So this is the only thing that it can change
normally in a court, anything that's altered video wise, a
court is not gonna allow a jewelry to watch that
because they don't know like how farther like, they don't
know how far the edits may have went. They can't
determine what was there, wasn't there whatever, Right, So that
would basically mean if if this video doesn't make it
into the court, the jury won't see it.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
But I mean, how do we know that those durors
hasn't seen it online? Yes, I don't.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
This feels like old school lawyers trying to navigate their
way through a whole new world because they're gonna be
hard pressed to find a juror who hasn't seen that video.
So they can keep that video out of the court,
but they can't keep it out of people's minds exactly.

Speaker 4 (18:44):
Well, the thing about that is what it probably strikes
is the fact that if they say it's altered, part
of the reason I don't even think it matters anymore.
But part of the reason that they said they didn't
give him bail was because of that video. So if
that video is no longer being able to be used,
he could probably have bail. He could probably get it
some of those other things. That was the reason why
he couldn't get bailing some of those other things before.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
But people, you already saw the video in your mind,
if your mind stayed jurors, but legally from the judge,
but even with the judges, like, if your mindsett is,
I can't give him. I don't want to give him
bail because he might be violent. You already saw the video.

Speaker 21 (19:17):
And then if you remember with the bail conversation, you
remember they also had like the phone records of him
like reaching out allegedly, like reaching out to the different witnesses.
Like there was other things outside of the videos that
they could lean in on too as well. So I mean,
I feel like even if this video is at first,
I was like, well, maybe that video being taken away
can help them because of the Bell situation.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
And I was like, nah, you saw what you saw.

Speaker 4 (19:38):
But also they said if it's altered, and they said
CNN destroyed the original, that doesn't seem strange at all. Well, Okay,
so I was he destroyed.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
CNN is claiming that they never destroyed anything.

Speaker 21 (19:48):
CNN it said, CNN never altered the video and did
not destroy the original copy of the footage, which was
retained by the source ceeing and aired the story. And
they also say this, they're making it clear that they
aired this video months before Diddy was even locked up
or a federal indictment was announced, because Diddy's team is
also saying, like, y'all altered this, and y'all got rid

(20:09):
of this original footage when y'all knew that there was
an ongoing federal case in y'all reported about it, but
they dropped this video in May, and then Diddy did
his video apologizing did he probably?

Speaker 1 (20:18):
Man, they didn't destroy the whole thing. Why I destroyed
a whole video? That's the only thing that could help
him in a situation like this. Also, if you're trying
to keep jurors from seeing this video, all this does
is bring more attention to the video. Because if I'm
a potential DURA and I see these headlines, I'm gonna
go see what have a video they talking about?

Speaker 3 (20:33):
If I've never seen.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Them, Yeah, that's that's true.

Speaker 21 (20:35):
And then they also are going back and forth right
now because speaking of durors they're trying to do, they're
trying to get the prosecutors are like, yo, let's take
this to court right now, like let's have a dur
receided like in the next month. Diddy team is like, nah,
we need until like April to go back through discovery
and figure some things out. And Diddy's team wants to
sit down. They want to sequester drs, they want to
give them questionnaires, they want to I think what they

(20:56):
really want to do is with this video and they
want to make basically see how much these.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Have seen online.

Speaker 21 (21:00):
And they're not gonna they're gonna they're gonna want to
pick the people who don't really know nothing about nothing,
which is gonna be hard.

Speaker 4 (21:05):
But he's not being charged for that video. He's being
charged for totally something totally different. That video, Like Charlamage said,
really shouldn't.

Speaker 9 (21:11):
Matter, say that the only.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
Not many, If they say not many, if they many,
if they meaning if they've seen it or not, it
really shouldn't matter because he's not being charged with that video.

Speaker 21 (21:25):
He's not that that would have been a state issue
in the time for them to prosecute that has already passed,
but you've seen it and he looks like a monster
in that video, So it's gonna be hard to say
this man learned his lesson. Let him free, don't charge
them with all this stuff. He didn't do any of
the stuff, if that's you.

Speaker 22 (21:40):
Know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Like, like I said, they can keep the video out
of court, but they can't keep it out of people's mind.

Speaker 8 (21:44):
Not just the video, the.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Baby oil and every other crazy ass story that you've
heard over the last few months.

Speaker 4 (21:50):
Like you didn't heard some wild Diddy.

Speaker 21 (21:51):
Stories, have We definitely have heard some wild Diddy stories.
Well that that's the update. I think yesterday when that broke,
people was like, wait what but seeing it is coming
out swinging like, Yo, we don't know what y'all talking about.
That is not true, And and that video copy was
the only copy. The Intercontinental where that video was recorded
is no longer open, and it's been confirmed.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
That that was the only copy of the video. So
we'll have to see what happens from here.

Speaker 21 (22:15):
But in other news, yesterday we talked about Tiana Taylor
and Emon Shumper and we did get some updates. I
told you guys that we were going to try and
figure this out. So I just wanted to put this
update out here. So yesterday Nikki Taylor, who is Tianna
Taylor's mom and manager, spoke out. She said, it's awful
strange that the case is sealed from a divorce that
was finalized on July first, twenty twenty four, but all

(22:36):
of this information as to what she allegedly got is
public this week. What about what the other party received.
Let's be crystal clear. Both parties walked away with properties, vehicles,
and businesses that they obtained separately. Now, I also had
someone point out to me that there was a story
that Jasmine Brand actually broke about this. This was broke
months ago about the money and all that stuff, and

(22:59):
it does mention what Emion received and he was able to,
like he left the situation with, like his condo in Miami.
He also was able to keep ownership of his own
businesses as well too. So it kind of seems like
they both walked away. But what they came in with
and then you situation, yeah, and then the child supports
stuff happens, and the school stuff happens or whatever, So yeah,
they wanted to make it, make it crystal clear, like

(23:19):
this was a fair situation.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
But why did that story drop yesterday? If this was
something that was done last July, why did it come
out yesterday? Of everything? And why it was only one side?
I guess that's the question the Lord.

Speaker 21 (23:31):
No, no, no, no, that that thing was had its
legs before we brought it here. We we're clarifying, but
it had legs. I can't answer that question and be
but you know, I can't answer that, But that is
That is one of the questions that miss Nikki is
asking as well too.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
It's like, well, why all of a sudden is this
so big? Why is it happening? Why is it moving?

Speaker 1 (23:50):
That's the way it works, though, I mean, you know,
then it finds things and then you know, somebody puts
a little flame to it, throws some gas on it.
Next thing you know, it's viral and you're wondering why. Yeah,
nothing ever really dies on the Internet. It's really like herpees.
Every story is like her fees online and be an outbreak.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
Well hopefully we dang. I was gonna say, hopefully we
got rid.

Speaker 4 (24:13):
Of the herpes, but no care for it can't nope,
keeps coming back.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
Well that is the latest, and that is the update.

Speaker 4 (24:20):
All right, well, thank you, Lauren. Now when we come back,
we got front page news, and then comedian Bill Burrow
be joining us. I'm dj MV. We are the breakfast Club.

Speaker 6 (24:29):
If you're like into the breakfast club.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
Good morning, everybody gets dj Envy, Jess, hilarious, Charlemagne the God,
we are the breakfast Club. Let's get back in some
front page news. Morgan is our day, but Bree is
feeling in. Good morning, Bree Woods, Hey.

Speaker 11 (24:43):
Good morning, dj m V, Charlemagne the God and just hilarious.
Happy Friday. How are you guys.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Feeling no relation to Morgan?

Speaker 10 (24:51):
Right, no, no, we just call each other play cousin.

Speaker 4 (24:53):
No, okay, okay, okay, Well let's jump right in.

Speaker 8 (24:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (24:56):
Here's what's trending in your news this morning. So we
begin with good our Kathi Hochel. She is heading to
the White House this morning to meet with President Trump
about New York's sanctuary city status. The meeting comes after
the Justice Department hit several city hotels and shelters with
federal subpoenas seeking names, birth dates, and other information about
immigrant asylum seekers.

Speaker 10 (25:16):
So here's some of what Governor Hochel have to say.

Speaker 23 (25:19):
We will not be cooperating in terms of state police
not assisting unless they have a warrant for someone's arrest
or a proof that this person is a dangerous individual.

Speaker 11 (25:28):
It also comes two days after Borders our Tom home
and was on Hochel's turf in Albany threatening to flood
New York with ICE agents. Now, Hokal says the state
has always cooperated with Ice when it comes to removing
dangerous criminals, but she is vowing to hold the line
on New York's sanctuary status.

Speaker 10 (25:45):
Has that been something that's been an issue for you guys.

Speaker 11 (25:47):
Have you noticed people feeling a certain type of way
about being a sanctuary city.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
I don't know they feel the way about sanctuary city,
but I mean, you know, over the last couple of
years here in New York, people have definitely felt the
way about you know, the legal immigrants, you know what
I mean. Like that, that has definitely been a thing
that's been a thing for a while. But I also
don't believe anything Democrats say until I see it. So,
you know, Governor, the whole cool's talking all that tough
talk until Trump applies pressure, you know, I mean I

(26:13):
need to see how people reacting when Trump actually applies
pressure and says, no, you're going to do this.

Speaker 4 (26:17):
And I don't know if you've seen it recently, but
I guess since we've been talking about it more and
more and more, I always feel like the phone listens.
The site has been popping up, which is ice gov
on Instagram, and it tells you everybody that's been arrested,
how they've been arrested, if they child molesteds, if they
sex offenders.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
Or what all that other stuff. It tells you and
get pictures and where they picked them up from which
they popping up. They popping up on your phone because
you know, I've been warning them. I've been telling them
where to look. Okay, shut up.

Speaker 4 (26:41):
You know, I just have me to go on a
ride along.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
A couple of times I told them exactly where I
want to go. Nope, and you know I want to
go your front gate.

Speaker 3 (26:51):
Okay.

Speaker 11 (26:52):
Well, hopefully they have a productive meeting this morning. I'm
sure there will be updates on that come Monday. In
other news, during a heated session of the House Ways
and Means Committee on Wednesday, Democratic Representative John Larson of
Connecticut launched into a fiery rant against Elon Musk and
the Department of Government Efficiency or dose. Take a listen
to Democrat Representative John Larson. He was very upset at

(27:15):
the absence of Elon Musk during this meeting.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
Where's Elon Musk? I'm sure he's a genius.

Speaker 22 (27:21):
He's a very incredible person because of the wealth he's accumulated,
but that does not put him above the law or
the responsibility to come before this committee in this Congress.
If he's so great, if these plans and all the
fraud and abuse that he's found are so eminent, why
isn't he here explaining it?

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Elon tweeted out, man tell him his poor ass done. Okay,
don't hear m hiss poe ad tell her tell him
sit his poor ass down. Okay, I understand how DEM's
doing that, But you know what's more effective watching Trump
and Magaan supporters go off about dojia those Republican town halls.

Speaker 8 (27:55):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (27:55):
Like like seeing like like people expect THEMS to be mad,
but when they watching people who voted for be mad,
it h's different.

Speaker 10 (28:02):
Yeah, it's definitely different.

Speaker 11 (28:03):
And he had a lot more to say than that,
He went on to accuse Musk of attempting to privatize
Social Security and criticized his absence from the committee meeting,
questioning his accountability and his motives. The White House responded
defending musk efforts to reduce waste and fraud and entitlement
programs and accused Democrats of avoiding the issue altogether. So

(28:26):
that's going to be an ongoing conversation. And entitlement programs
those are government programs providing benefits or services to individuals
who meet specific eligibility requirements established by law, ensuring that
those benefits are provided regardless.

Speaker 10 (28:39):
Of budget constraints or appropriations.

Speaker 11 (28:42):
For example, that would be your social Security, your Medicaid, Medicare,
and snap got you. And on Thursday, it was the
fifth anniversary of Breonna Taylor's death. It marked five years
since she was shot and killed after police performed a
no knock warrant at her apartment in Louisville. Democratic Representative
More McGarvey of Kentucky honored her on the House floor
this week.

Speaker 10 (29:03):
He's just some of what he had to say about Brianna. Listen.

Speaker 18 (29:06):
Brianna loved her family, her community, and more than anything,
she loved life. In the face of injustice, we cannot
be silent. We must speak up, We must say her name,
Brionna Taylor.

Speaker 11 (29:18):
Now former Louisville Metro Police Department officer Brett Hankson he
was convicted of violating Taylor's civil rights by shooting blindly
into her apartment. And the other officers who fired their
guns at her apartment. They no longer work for LMPD,
but they have not faced any criminal charges. And I
know in Louisville I was reading and watching they still
protest every year around this time.

Speaker 10 (29:39):
The protest has never stopped.

Speaker 11 (29:41):
It's ongoing, but they're saying that there still really is
no accountability for what happened five years ago.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
So at all.

Speaker 11 (29:48):
Yeah, And finally, we do have one story involving an
American Airlines plane. It caught fire at Denver International Airport
after landing, prompting the evacuation of one hundred and seventy
two passengers and six crew members. So the fire, which
originated from an engine related issue while the aircraft was
taxiing to the gate, resulted in thick black smoke and
flames that were coming from the underside of the plane.

(30:09):
So emergency slides were deployed and passengers they safely deplaned
onto the winging, though so they had to stand on
the wing as emergency crews worked to extinguish extinguish the flames. Unfortunately,
there are no injuries reported in this and the fire
was extinguished within an hour. The Boeing seven thirty seven
had taken off from Colorado Springs. It was headed to
Dallas Fort Worth before being diverted to Denver. And we

(30:33):
wanted to make sure we got that in because you
guys are consistently traveling for work, and so you just want.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
To No, no, you wanted to get that you guys
are consistently flying. So I want to scare the hell
out of y'all.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
This weekend.

Speaker 10 (30:45):
Precautionary happening.

Speaker 9 (30:48):
It's just crazy.

Speaker 11 (30:49):
You know what's happening with these planes at these airports,
and you know it's being reported now more than ever,
so why not, you know what.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
I'll be wanting just to know what happened, like you
know what I mean, because they report these stories to us,
but then they don't tell us why the At least
I don't see why these things happened.

Speaker 9 (31:03):
Well, that sounded like the plane was raggedy.

Speaker 8 (31:05):
Is that that well?

Speaker 11 (31:07):
They said that the plane landed safely at the airport
and that the engine trouble didn't start until afterwards, so
there was no smoke billowing while they were in the air,
But when they got on the ground come into the gate,
that's when all the smoke and fire started with the engine.

Speaker 24 (31:19):
Lord.

Speaker 11 (31:19):
Oh, if there was engine trouble, better to happen on
the ground than in the sun. Yeah, for sure, absolutely
so happy everybody was safe in that instance.

Speaker 4 (31:29):
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 10 (31:31):

Speaker 24 (32:28):
Yeah, you said after risky the risk, that's the risk
you take. But you know they got AIDS under control us.

Speaker 4 (32:35):
They do, Yes, they do.

Speaker 24 (32:37):
It's not like a big deal anymore.

Speaker 4 (32:38):
Remember when everybody used to be so scared of age.
It was terrifying, right, is one of the clearers.

Speaker 6 (32:44):
I don't have ages.

Speaker 24 (32:44):
That was a crazy crazy your generation. If somebody got
skinny was before us it was heroin. Okay after that, Yeah,
this is a nice way to start this interview. But
don't get their age.

Speaker 1 (33:01):
By the way, billion fifty six, you are not in
your drop deady is man. They don't say to cut
it out.

Speaker 24 (33:05):
Well yeah, no, people people drow Yeah, I've had friends
drop dead in these year. These years. So I hope
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
I tried.

Speaker 24 (33:13):
I mean, I'm an old dad. So that was sort
of the thought that I started, you know, thinking like
how long do I have to live so my kids will?
You know, I raised them and I was starting to
do the math and it was kind of scaring me.
So I've been I don't know, but you know, you
get to be fifty six, going to be fifty seven,
you start thinking thinking of those things. No, it isn't

(33:34):
fifty seven times too, is one hundred and fourteen. That's
not young. How would you be like, oh, you know
you're middle aged. It's like, no, I'm not. I'm fifty six.
I'll be fifty seven, so yeah that's old.

Speaker 2 (33:45):
No, how old are your kids?

Speaker 24 (33:46):
Oh? My kids? My daughter is eight and my son's
going to be five.

Speaker 3 (33:50):
Oh I started late.

Speaker 8 (33:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (33:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
But the average age of most people die I'm in
at least around seventy four seventy five.

Speaker 3 (33:57):
That's the average age in America.

Speaker 24 (33:58):
Oh okay, that's good, so those are don't Actually the
drop edgy is no, that's not dropping dead. That's that's
dying of natural causes or whatever you were doing. Dropping
dead is you're out on a golf course. You know,
limburn up doing this and then just face plant into
the ts.

Speaker 4 (34:13):
But you got to take care of yourself. You go
to the doctor, you do your cardiovascular tests. I'm not dying.

Speaker 24 (34:19):
Yeah, doing like a health intervention here. It is a
stand up special. You're taking a very serious care the thing.
It's just sort of making fun of the fact that, uh, yeah,
I'm not young anymore. I got to watch myself and whatnot.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
So you run around the park with your kids.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
Yes, I do all of that type like that.

Speaker 21 (34:42):
Can see make it hisself? It sounds seems so aged.
I'm like, well, what young stuff do you do that
makes you feel like damn, it's.

Speaker 24 (34:49):
Just being fifty six? Is like, is that a crazy
thing to think that fifty six is kind of old?

Speaker 21 (34:54):
I think so the way that I think because you
put you say fifty six and then you talk about
all of the like kind of like the up the
hill battle stuff, Like it's just you wake up every
day in your mind like she's thirty three.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
Make it feel like you make it feel like you
feel old.

Speaker 21 (35:09):
Like so I'm like, dang, listen, I'll call Hulu, I
will rename I'll see what I can do three games
to Drop Dead Years.

Speaker 24 (35:19):
Yes, okay, it's the pre.

Speaker 4 (35:20):
Game, all right, Well, the special is out today. It
is out today on Hulu Drop Dead Years for everybody
out there. Make sure you go stream it, make sure
you go watch it, absolutely can.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
Can you tell us what Well, I guess you just
told us what inspired the name, But how does it
reflect the material you're covering in the special?

Speaker 24 (35:35):
Well, I always have like a mix of like I
talk about current events, crazy thoughts, and then you know,
sort of analyzing my mistakes or whatever. So I'm not
because my earlier specials I was just doing this. So
I like to try to point the figure out myself
a little bit more.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
But I don't know.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
You know, when it comes to comedy, though, are you
trying to provide an escape for people or do you
feel like you have to use comedy to make sense
of the world that we live in.

Speaker 24 (35:59):
Definitely an escape. I'm big on that. Like my job
is when you come, I'm going to make you laugh,
forget about whatever you're going through, or add to a
good week if you had it. But I don't put
any sort of level of importance. People try to do that,
like there's this stupid thing out there. The comedians, they're
like the truth tellers of today. It's like, no, you
journalists aren't doing your jobs anymore. You guys are all

(36:21):
you guys work for one or two channels, and you
know you just sort of tow the company line. So
then they're they're putting it on comedians. It's like, you know,
that's not our job. Our job is to make you
laugh and forget about your work week or whatever. So
I don't put any sort of importance on anything that
I'm doing.

Speaker 4 (36:38):
And how do you stay away from politics when I
feel like politics is just funny?

Speaker 10 (36:41):
Now?

Speaker 4 (36:41):
I'm everything is genuwhere every.

Speaker 21 (36:44):
Like everything you say has to do with political sni everything,
But a lot of stuff you say he has to
do political stuff like you were trend to all morning
this morning?

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Did you know that on Twitter?

Speaker 15 (36:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 24 (36:52):
But I guarantee you whatever they were saying I was saying,
I wasn't. What was it about.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
It was the Elon muss Na Nazi thing and how the.

Speaker 21 (37:00):
Meeting, I'd say, what they was ridiculous.

Speaker 24 (37:04):
There was a there was a time post me too
and all that speaking to power, all of that.

Speaker 4 (37:09):
What's happening?

Speaker 24 (37:11):
Remember when something was supposed to happen for you guys,
and it didn't because it was all of us just talking.

Speaker 4 (37:17):
I mean, that's what ended up happening.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
That's what a lot of white people making a lot
of promises.

Speaker 3 (37:21):
That never happened.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Was it during the Black Squares time?

Speaker 25 (37:24):
Or so?

Speaker 24 (37:25):
I don't, I don't, I don't, I just I just
remember there was a time that you would be on
stage going like can I do this Caitlyn Jenner joke?
Or am I was this gonna like? Am I gonna
get canceled? Like it was really this crazy time.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
She was the one transgend that you could always make
jokes about and nobody would get there.

Speaker 24 (37:41):
I don't know. I kind of did one on Conan
and then those guys at Huffington Post tried to get
something going but and okay, so there was that period
and then like a few years later, this guy see
hiled twice once in the front if you missed it
in the back, and it's just like he still has
a job. That guy still has a job. I don't
understand those guys. And this isn't politically, it's just like

(38:04):
I don't understand why they're so upset with this country.
It's like you're billionaires. I think it's working for you, Like, like,
you know, why are you going and telling everybody you
know justify what you do? It's like, can justify what
you do that piece of car that you're making that
the government financed now.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
But you know what you just said.

Speaker 1 (38:20):
You said that Elon still had the job. He's the
richest man in the world. There's nothing they can do
to him. And that's all he proved. There's nothing anybody
can do to him by throwing.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
Up when he did that. What do you take from him?

Speaker 1 (38:30):
He's not Kyrie Irvan, he's not Kanye Like, what do
you do?

Speaker 3 (38:32):
But I don't know.

Speaker 24 (38:34):
I listen, I don't know how this works. I'm just
saying that. You know, if you said the wrong thing
is a comedian all of a sudden you lost your TV.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Not the rigid man in the world. He was a
rigid comedian in the world. Ever, man, I don't get Bilberg.

Speaker 24 (38:45):
But I don't get is the amount of veterans that
people in the armed services that died trying to stop Hitler,
and then this guy comes in and does that while
being an immigrant too, which is kind of fat The
whole thing. There's none and none of it, like tracks
all you could be to support the troops, you know, America,
love it or leave it. And then this guy comes
in and gives a shout out to Hitler.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
Makes no sense at all.

Speaker 24 (39:08):
Yeah it doesn't, I don't know. But then somehow that
gets like politicized. I'm not trashing Republicans. All Republicans did
not see Kyle. That guy did. And I was just
amazed that all liberals had was one day of outrage
and they're like, all right, I guess that didn't work.

Speaker 1 (39:21):
That we just kind of move on because they realized
they can't do anything to them, Like what do you
do other than some angry tweets.

Speaker 4 (39:27):
The stock went down a little bit, but then Trump
tried to, you know, buy some some teslas on you know,
live on television to show people that it's cool about
the company.

Speaker 21 (39:35):
So the people online said Bill Burt is absolutely cooking.
He don't realize he gonna lead a revolution and then
make jokes and complain about it.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
So they want you to tell them what to do.

Speaker 24 (39:44):
That's one comment. If you go down this, they was
giving it up.

Speaker 4 (39:52):
For you this morning.

Speaker 24 (39:53):
If you were in this business, The last thing you
want to do is read comments on the internet.

Speaker 21 (39:57):
I tell her that every game, whenever a person is trending,
I have to go see why.

Speaker 2 (40:03):
Like it's just in my world if she lives in
the comments. This is not the this is this is
this is not the comments.

Speaker 11 (40:08):
This is like.

Speaker 21 (40:08):
You were trending across the US on Twitter. So I
clicked to see why because I know you were coming today.
And then I saw the comment that you made, which
I saw the day before. But people just started.

Speaker 24 (40:17):
Common sense comment that yeah, shouldn't have.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
People just started yelling about it today, So that's why
you were trending.

Speaker 4 (40:23):
We got more with comedian Bill Burr when we come back.
Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning, everybody
is he Jay Jesse, Hilarry is Charlamagne the guy we
are to Breakfast Club. Layla roases with us as well.
We're still kicking to with comedian Bill Burr.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
Charlamagne, you said you feel like billionaires there like rabbit
dogs who deserve.

Speaker 3 (40:40):
To be put down.

Speaker 24 (40:41):
Wow damn, I mean, well, it's a podcast. I'm exact.
I'm joking. I'm exaggerating. You can't do that anything, Yes,
you can and I did it and it's fine.

Speaker 4 (40:53):
You know what I meant.

Speaker 24 (40:54):
I hate when somebody showed him a clip from a
movie or a sketch and be like, oh, you couldn't
do that today. It's like you just did it and
we all watched it and everything was fine.

Speaker 1 (41:03):
So like, I, uh, so, you don't really feel like
billionaires are rabbit dogs who should be putting down.

Speaker 24 (41:08):
I think that they should be regulated capitalism is great,
but unregulated capitalism I don't think the direction this is going.
And when now these guys, the thing is is they're
all competing with each other. They don't hang out with
regular people. They just hang out with other billionaires. So
when somebody has an infinity pool overlooking an infinity pool,
then that that's what they want. And you know, I
think they just go around, uh looking at their net

(41:29):
worth and they're trying to be like the first trillion
ere But I don't I don't know. I don't understand that.
But this this whole like heartless way that they treat
workers is it's it's got to stop. It has to stop,
and I don't I do find it funny though, that
it's nerds that are ruining the world because they used
to always go after like frat boys and stuff, and

(41:51):
it's like, well, now look at it. It's all of
these these I don't know, they're all getting like hair
plugs and they get like face. I don't understand what
the ceo. They take jiu jitsu and they eat raw almonds.

Speaker 1 (42:02):
But you know, people feel like that about multimillionaires. Dudo Bill,
and you are a multimillionaire.

Speaker 24 (42:06):
I hit the lottery, yeah I was. I worked in
a warehouse. I did like that, and then I tried.
I tried, like I you know, I went after something
and it paid up. Like there's no way to win
that conversation where it's just like, oh you got money now,
so shut the cup. But then if you act like
you have money, it's like, oh, don't forget where you
came from. So, like, I don't know, nobody's the same
person that they were. I'd like to think I learned

(42:26):
something along the way, But like, you know, people who
work for me get paid, Yeah, yeah, I don't want
them to go to bed terrified, wake up, terrified, go
to work terrified like that. One psycho said that he
wants his workers to do like I want people to
be uh comfortable. Yeah, Like, why wouldn't you want your
employees to Like when I was growing up, you know,
the working class, it was like one week's pay should

(42:46):
be your rent or your mortgage. And now I know
people that work a whole month and have to get
like a second job, and that's just not good. You know,
you need to be home with your kids. If you
have a second job, you can't do that. You can't
raise them, right, it causes more problems. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (43:01):
So you like compassionate capital living.

Speaker 8 (43:03):
Yeah, I have no.

Speaker 24 (43:04):
Problem with people running stuff. I have no problem with
people making a ton of money. But like you know,
when when your workers are wearing adult diapers because they
don't have time to go to the back, damn is
they're driving your truck across the country. Like, yeah, that's
what I've scorn. All right, maybe maybe you're taking too
much of the pie. That's all. So, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (43:23):
Random question, Did Billy Corgan get the DNA test to
see if you and him are really have brothers?

Speaker 24 (43:27):
I don't want, you know, Yeah, I don't want to
get into that. I don't want again. That was just
a you know, I love Howie, but we're still trying
to work that out.

Speaker 3 (43:34):
Yeah, that he did that.

Speaker 4 (43:35):
Oh, so that was rude. I wasn't a bit with
it going on.

Speaker 24 (43:38):
I don't want to.

Speaker 4 (43:39):
I don't want to.

Speaker 24 (43:39):
I'm just gonna leave that stuff alone. There's a lot
of people out there that aren't in this business that
might be effected, you know, So I just alone.

Speaker 3 (43:47):
Okay, Wow, I.

Speaker 6 (43:49):
Need to ask.

Speaker 4 (43:49):
You said you've been married eleven years. Uh huh, and
you said you finally got it right.

Speaker 6 (43:53):
Yeah, getting wrong for so long.

Speaker 2 (43:55):
He didn't know happy wife was happy.

Speaker 24 (43:56):
Yeah, which sounds cute. It's a threat to me, happy wife,
happy life.

Speaker 4 (44:01):
What do you mean?

Speaker 13 (44:02):
What do I mean?

Speaker 24 (44:02):
You mean you never been with a female?

Speaker 4 (44:05):
I've been married tweet?

Speaker 24 (44:06):
Yeah, and you're smart enough to say what do you mean?
So I say it, and so you don't walk home.

Speaker 4 (44:11):
I'm trying that sleep.

Speaker 6 (44:14):
What do you mean by that?

Speaker 3 (44:15):
A little bit on a different planet?

Speaker 24 (44:18):
No, I I kind of uh.

Speaker 7 (44:19):
No.

Speaker 24 (44:20):
Silence. Silence is the key. When they get all going
on about something, you don't have to take the bait.
You just sit there if you don't engage, Like, arguing
with with a woman is an away game, is what
I've learned, and you're just gonna lose. But if you
just stay quiet, not hostile, quiet, neutral, quiet dies of
its own weight. And then you just if you just

(44:41):
never get upset, then they they look at her, you
see the look on her face. They come around, and
they come around and then but then this is the
thing too. You can't ask them to apologize either, damn
you can't. You have to make it them feel like
it was their decision.

Speaker 8 (44:54):
You know what I say.

Speaker 4 (44:55):
And this might sound a little off, I say, sometimes
winning is losing.

Speaker 24 (44:58):
Yeah, well I wouldn't go that that negative, that's a
little hopeless. You have your guy friends to say what
you really feel in that moment that you used to
say to your wife, But like you just don't do
it anymore. You just sit there and go like, you know,
you just let him go.

Speaker 1 (45:11):
But it's not a competition. It's not a competition. You
are purposely trying to make her mad.

Speaker 6 (45:16):
I think he was.

Speaker 24 (45:17):
No, I wasn't. I accidentally did what she was doing
to me because it was all of those times when
I was like I'd be in an argument, I would
be right, and then all of a sudden I would
be arguing with some others, going like how did we
get over here? And then I would say something dumb
and then I would end up having to apologize even
though I was right, and then I would go for
a walk and then sort of like you know, after
you lose a game, you look at at the game

(45:38):
film and I was, ah, she did it to me again.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
So I don't know what they always say, went through
your actions, never through argument. So I feel like that's
what you mean when you say just be quiet.

Speaker 24 (45:46):
Yeah, I mean that's whatever you just said is more
involved than I am. I just try to like like
that was like when I'm on duo Lingo and I
kind of know most of the words and I was like, wait,
let me just hit pause and think what it was
just said.

Speaker 1 (45:58):
Just went through your action, do argument, Like I don't
need to argue with somebody just showing for room.

Speaker 3 (46:03):
Basically, I saw you say that.

Speaker 1 (46:04):
One of the greatest things that ever happened to you
is that you went both went both for your acting career.

Speaker 24 (46:08):
Oh fa acting, Yeah, because before that, when I had
the red hair or whatever, like you know, they talk
about all the stereotypes in Hollywood. It's not just like
with people to cut like I was in the redhead drawer,
and there's just certain roles that you get. And I remember, like,
you know, I'm old enough, we had like black and
white head shots, so like in the nineties with the
moose and the hair, it kind of looked like brown hair.
So a couple of times, in like some smaller projects,

(46:31):
independent things, they would bring me in for the lead
and I was like, oh my god, I'm finally getting
to go in. I'm finally going to have like a
big part. And I would come walking in like you know,
prepare three scenes, right, and I would come walking in
and then they would see me. They'd be like, oh, okay,
we're just going to do the first scene. And I
knew what that was. It's like, you're not going to
have there was just this unwritten rule that if you
were a redhead, you weren't gonna be the lead. Redheaded
male was not going to be the lead in the movie.

(46:52):
So going bald and shaving my head, you know, I
started looking more of like the ass than I am.
So I got to play those kinds of guys, you know,
like this thing in Glengarry Glenn Ross, this guy David
Moss that I'm playing, you know, he sounds like all
the guys that I grew up with, Like it was
a different time and people just yelled at each other
and they said horrible to each other and there was

(47:12):
like no apology and you just kind of moved on.

Speaker 1 (47:15):
So what makes you want to do broad that's like
the like you already do the hardest thing there is
to do on stage. I think comedians a maniac for
you was one person to go on stage.

Speaker 24 (47:24):
I would say, editing a movie is way difficult than really,
oh my god. First of all, on your first movie,
if you don't know what you're doing, if like you know,
when you see experienced directors, they'll have a guy they
like starting to edit the stuff as it goes, so
they almost have their first cut at the end. Your
first time director, it's like you took five jigsaw puzzles
and just threw it in the air and it's on
the floor and you have to look at every piece

(47:45):
and try to figure out how I went together. That's
the hardest as far as in show business thing than
I did. And then before show business, any construction, landscaping,
roofing was brutal, but stand up is not hard. It's
more humiliating in the beginning when you don't know what
you're doing, but once you know what you're doing, it's
one of the easiest jobs in entertainment because it's in
real time. Where like a movie is an hour and

(48:06):
a half and it takes like three months to shoot
it sixteen hour days. You know, an hour. Stand up
takes an hour. So if you're funny, it's it's an
easy job. Why Broadway now, though, because I fell in
love with acting and Broadway. I never was into, you know,
I just thought it was all like cats, lay miz
and all of that. I didn't understand any of that.

(48:26):
But in the late nineties two thousand, I saw True
West with John c Riley and rest Is Soul Philip
Seymour Hoffman and it wasn't a musical, and I watched
it and I was like, wow, it was electrifying. I
was like, this is amazing.

Speaker 3 (48:40):
I would love to do that.

Speaker 24 (48:42):
And I had started to take some acting classes, you know,
for about five years at that point. I just sort of,
you know, the way the business used to be was
like stand up led to acting, back when you got
paid to be an actor as opposed to now. I
don't know what's going on. Yeah, so I just started
taking acting classes. I don't know, I don't know how.
Most of the stuff is after my career, and somehow
I ended up on this thing, which is crazy. And

(49:04):
we've done three preview shows, which is funny. They act
like they don't count until the premiere, but it's like
people paid like these count. But it's a great cast
of people and everybody's been killing it.

Speaker 8 (49:13):
So been fun.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
Hi, we got more with Bill Burr when we come back.
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Jesse, Larry and Charlem
to God, we are the Breakfast Club. Were still kicking
it with Bill Burr, Lauren.

Speaker 21 (49:25):
In the opening of your specially when you're walking on
a stage, you talk about how comedy is like kind
of like a safe space or whatever, because you've you didn't.

Speaker 24 (49:32):
I never said safe space. It's yeah, this is like space.

Speaker 21 (49:41):
I was surprised, guy, what did you say, because whatever
it was, I was surprised to hear you saying because
you said something about like you didn't know how much
you wanted people to like you.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
Oh yeah, I thought I did, And I was confused.

Speaker 24 (49:51):
I'm like, really, yeah, well I thought I did stand
up because I liked comedy, That's what I thought, but
I didn't. Through taking mushrooms and figuring myself out, I
I realized that the reason why I did comedy, aside
from I like making people laugh and that's how I
connected with them, it was this way to go on
stage and make a room full of strangers like you
so they wouldn't hurt you. Yeah, so that was kind

(50:12):
of like, you know.

Speaker 21 (50:13):
That's okurry. I just was surprised that you say that
because this other stuff you say. I'm like, you know
people are going to dislike you for that, but you still.

Speaker 2 (50:19):
Say it so well.

Speaker 24 (50:21):
That probably has to do with not getting love and
then when you grow up then you push it away
or something or not feeling worthy of it, low self esteem.
There's a lot of stuff in there. I got to
take some more mushrooms to figure that part of it out.

Speaker 4 (50:32):
But uh, you do a lot of plant based medicines.

Speaker 24 (50:34):
No, I just I don't know what I do. I've
only done mushrooms like three or four times, and what
I like about it. It's the only drug I've ever
done that didn't make me want to do it again
the next day. It made me want to like work
on myself and try to be not such an app
and uh as it worked, Yeah it has. It's I'm
not going to get into it, but uh confronted a
lot of stuff that happened to me that made me
become a comedian or have the need to do it,

(50:56):
and then it made me understand my wife more and
what it was like to be with me, because you
know what I mean, if you grew up in a
crazy environment, your idea of not crazy is just less
crazy than the crazy you grew up with. But if everybody,
if you get with somebody that had a regular, happy childhood,
whatever that is, you think you're being chill, and your

(51:17):
chill is a raving lunatic to them, and then that
becomes the most difficult thing I think as a human
being is empathy. Get out of me and listen to you.
What are you saying? And then you know, admitting you're wrong, Okay,
you're right, that's hurting you. I'm acknowledging that. Blah blah blah.
Like that's the type of stuff I got out of taking.

Speaker 1 (51:34):
Mushrooms is figuring yourself out good for the entertainment, meaning
like when you are one hundred percent okay, one of
the biggest myths as a comedians.

Speaker 24 (51:41):
If you get happy, you're not going to be funny anymore.

Speaker 11 (51:43):
It is.

Speaker 24 (51:44):
It breathes all new life into you and you can
re examine all of these topics that you've talked coming
from a different perspective. Being happy. Also, you can maybe
do stand up for the crowd instead of yourself, because
now you're happy, it's like, hey, let me make that
I'm happy for an hour. Like that, man makes you
more empathetic. You can relate to people even if you

(52:06):
haven't gone through what they've gone through. You understand that
they're going through something. So if they do yell at you,
rather than taking it personal, you can come at them
from a different angle. Which is my favorite thing to do,
is to just just not take it personally and try
to figure out where it came from and get them
to laugh about themselves, to realize that what they yelled
at me had nothing to do with me. It had
to do with what happened to them on Tuesday or

(52:29):
when I don't know, years ago, or something like that.

Speaker 1 (52:31):
So when you look at your old stuff, do you
feel like you was just projecting, Like you was just
projecting your anger or whatever it was.

Speaker 24 (52:37):
Yeah, I was say, I don't know when I don't
watch my old stuff, but if I was to watch it,
it would make me cringe or anything. I would just
sort of look at it more like, you know, that's
where I was. You know a lot of the stuff
that I said about women had really nothing to do
with women. I had to do with the fact that
I wanted to be married and wanted to have kids.
I didn't know how to do it. I was too
walled off. That's like a really heavy thing to try

(52:59):
to figure out in your twenties. I mean, I didn't
have the maturity to do that. So what I did
was I lashed out at what I wanted instead and
blamed them, because that's way easier than trying to figure
out yourself. Maybe I don't know, I would probably cringe
at some of it that I said.

Speaker 1 (53:13):
Cause I've heard comedians say, cause you know, I'm a
big proponent of therapy, but I've heard a lot of
communities I'll never go to therapy because.

Speaker 24 (53:19):
You know, I need just trauma, like do you Well,
that's just where they are. I hope they get to
look because it's just like, all right, so you want
to be upset your whole life. You get one life.
I don't believe in reincarnation. You get one life. It's
like you could be happy, you could make other people happy,
you could help them out, you could do that, or
you could just go around, you know, taking out your
childhood on other people, which is what the.

Speaker 8 (53:39):
I was doing.

Speaker 4 (53:40):
Yeah, do you think about dying?

Speaker 24 (53:42):
So you just said yeah, but not in a bad way.

Speaker 8 (53:44):
I don't.

Speaker 24 (53:44):
I don't believe in an angry God, and I don't
believe that he's going to judge me. It's like you
made me, did I he Well, that's your mistake, Jesus. Well,
I always equated. If I built a car and it
doesn't start up, I mean, I'm gonna get mad at
the engine.

Speaker 4 (53:58):
Yeah, but if you tell them we put this type
of gas and in somebody put something else in it
and it's not the builders fault.

Speaker 24 (54:04):
Okay, So that's the devil analogy? Is that the devil analogy?

Speaker 6 (54:08):
No, I'm just talking, but it's like my thing is
just talking.

Speaker 24 (54:13):
You just went reverse, Henry Hill.

Speaker 3 (54:15):
I'm just listening.

Speaker 4 (54:16):
I'm just talking.

Speaker 1 (54:18):
I'm just just I just want to hear the sound
of my voice. Soothing, soothing, to me to present ideas.
I do understand what you're saying, Okay, I think about
that often they will.

Speaker 4 (54:27):
I don't believe in that.

Speaker 24 (54:28):
That that devil. It's like, that's God's creation. You created
that handle that and.

Speaker 1 (54:33):
There's a lot of things here that causes to make
poor choice.

Speaker 24 (54:35):
God makes sociopaths, he makes He makes horrible people also,
but for some reason with religion, that's not God's responsibility.
And then these horrible people do horrible to kids and stuff,
and it messes them up, and then they got to
go out in the world and then they start being
toxic or whatever.

Speaker 8 (54:51):
It's.

Speaker 24 (54:52):
I believe in God, but I don't necessarily believe in
a loving God. Explain that, Well, then why would he
make all these people?

Speaker 4 (55:00):
People say the kingdom?

Speaker 21 (55:02):
And what's your religious background? Like are you spiritual or
are you like religious? The difference is like how you practice,
like are you in church often?

Speaker 7 (55:10):
Are you?

Speaker 2 (55:10):
Or you just have your own faith journey with whoever
you priest.

Speaker 24 (55:13):
I don't do any of that, Okay, I just try
to be a good guy. I don't know. I don't understand.
Like even if you look at the animal world, he
created all the animals too, the fact that, like there's
just animals out there that their whole purpose is to
be food, to be eaten alive, like rabbits. It's just
like the patheticness of being a rabbit.

Speaker 3 (55:32):
I mean God was thinking about us? Are his other
creatures that need to eat?

Speaker 24 (55:35):
Explain bears? Just like, why would you make something like that?
And they have an inability to kill something? God out
starting to eat it first? Like what I like about
lions and tigers is they have the decency to kill
you before they start eating you, whereas like a bear
just pounces on you and just starts ripping meat out

(55:55):
of your back like now a DiCaprio.

Speaker 3 (55:57):
But that's only if you're in their environment.

Speaker 11 (56:00):
I know.

Speaker 24 (56:00):
But deer are Why did deer have to go through
that death? Why can't it just kill the thing?

Speaker 4 (56:05):
Because deer are those animals food?

Speaker 24 (56:08):
Like when you have to explain I understand that, Why
do they have to have such an agonizing If there's
a loving God, why would he make something that's so
stupid it has the ability to kill something it just
starts eating it.

Speaker 2 (56:18):
You want a viral answer for that, y'all just discuss.

Speaker 22 (56:21):
It, all right?

Speaker 24 (56:22):
I want to hear I want to hear you. I'm
open to this.

Speaker 2 (56:24):
So okay, the way that this story goes.

Speaker 24 (56:27):
In the is that the beareth shall malleth and start
eating it. No, especially if the deer is gayeth.

Speaker 3 (56:38):
It's sweet.

Speaker 24 (56:38):
How's it?

Speaker 13 (56:44):
All right?

Speaker 24 (56:46):
Wait for you said you want billionaires to be put down.

Speaker 1 (56:51):
Ladies and gentlemen, that that would be a controversial. Take everybody,
I mean put down. I like compassionate capitals. If you're
a peace person, period, regardless of what your financial status is,
we probably can do without you.

Speaker 4 (57:04):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right.

Speaker 24 (57:05):

Speaker 4 (57:20):

Or is this for my own orchard? Is this a
billionaire apple? Or is this just for the common people?

back on stage. It has been years since she has performed.
Its been two years and she hit the stage in
Los Angeles and she talked about her mental health and
not wanting to be here.

Speaker 2 (58:17):
At one point, let's say a listen.

Speaker 7 (58:19):
I was called love in real Love, and I named
it that because about a year and a half ago,
I was in such a dark depression. I was so
heartbroken by the world I didn't want to live in.

Speaker 19 (58:35):
I was so deeply afraid of people that I didn't
want to be seen. Eventually I got over that fear,
and now so I was walking through the crowd to
get to my buff somebody who I didn't know looked
at me as a listen.

Speaker 4 (58:49):
I love you, and it was aboutand people.

Speaker 26 (58:52):
And then it was ten thousand people showering love and
support and reaching out, and it was like saving experience.

Speaker 7 (59:03):
I was like, damn, you can't get this on the internet, bro,
this is the kind of love you can only get
real light.

Speaker 9 (59:13):
Yeah, that's what's up.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
Yeah, so it's good to hear her feeling better and she.

Speaker 1 (59:18):
Losing way to a back small next Slim just told
you that it's a lot of weight. I didn't start
I really did't stop paying attention til I saw her this.
I saw something she posted this week.

Speaker 2 (59:26):
She was in red. Yeah, yes, when in red.

Speaker 21 (59:28):
She posted this video on this red leather outfit and
she was like, it's giving BBL allegations.

Speaker 1 (59:32):
I was like, go off list, you know what I'm saying.
It was a color fore sometimes they wear black black
of tricky, you know what I'm saying. But when you
wear red, red pops so you can really see the
weight loss in the red.

Speaker 14 (59:41):
No.

Speaker 2 (59:41):
No, she just she posted like something she was with.

Speaker 9 (59:44):
She was in her underwear and the bra and she
still looked good, like she I saw that one, but.

Speaker 3 (59:48):
That was the black though. She had a black underwear
and the black brother on her.

Speaker 9 (59:52):
Body like still you know, and she she lost a
lot of this weak.

Speaker 3 (59:56):
Drop from litle.

Speaker 4 (59:58):
People always forget that these artists a regular people, right,
because they put their art out there and they put
their life out there, and people joke, they laugh, make
fun and people hurt. And I'm glad she's getting the
love that heart.

Speaker 3 (01:00:09):
They was joking her weight, that was the joke about.

Speaker 6 (01:00:12):
Okay, maybe maybe.

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
Wait wait things. She also had the lawsuit. Stuff happened.

Speaker 9 (01:00:17):
Showing her because they said she called her fat. She
was fat too.

Speaker 4 (01:00:20):
That's what I call fat back. We'll come back to
the fact it was a big lawsuit.

Speaker 13 (01:00:25):
But that's.

Speaker 4 (01:00:27):
She's losing the weight. She ain't nothing to talk about.

Speaker 11 (01:00:29):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:00:29):
Now what you're gonna say?

Speaker 2 (01:00:30):
Do you want her back off the stage again? Obviously
because she just got out of it?

Speaker 24 (01:00:34):
Here you go.

Speaker 6 (01:00:34):
This is the point.

Speaker 4 (01:00:36):
We're talking about.

Speaker 3 (01:00:37):
What you're gonna say about her now.

Speaker 24 (01:00:38):
Nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:00:39):
I ain't saying nothing. Before we told you she looked good.
You had to see it in red.

Speaker 21 (01:00:43):
But anyway, really mm hmm, but anyway, switching gears, sending
up congratulations to Normani and DK Metcalf, who are now engaged.

Speaker 4 (01:00:56):
For them, are feeling Lauren on the never field. What happened?

Speaker 8 (01:00:59):
Now?

Speaker 4 (01:00:59):
Don't say that don't say that, learn to feel that way.
Don't even feed into again, keep going on, don't into it.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
It's because you know what I mean. I'm staying focused
because the deer. All right. So they got engaged.

Speaker 21 (01:01:11):
He says that their families were together in Houston, so
he thought it was the perfect time. He actually said
he'd been trying to propose to her for over a year,
but because of their schedules were her performing and him
doing his thing, it didn't happen, and he wanted to
make sure the families together were together when he did it.
So the way he did it was he sent her
like flowers, like repeatedly, and each time she received the
flowers and had like a story in it. And the

(01:01:31):
last buketted he sent her the card read will you
marry me? She said yes, And now they are engaged,
which is so amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:01:38):
That's a good man. Say.

Speaker 3 (01:01:39):
I love a thoughtful engagement too.

Speaker 1 (01:01:41):
I'm telling you, brothers, when you do your engagement, you
gotta go all out because that's the story that she's
gonna tell in the future for the rest of her life.

Speaker 4 (01:01:48):
Man, you gotta make it good.

Speaker 9 (01:01:50):
Yeah, they're a beautiful black couple. They just look good together.

Speaker 5 (01:01:52):
No, Money is a smokeshell herself, but like Yo, she
looked good next to Yo.

Speaker 4 (01:01:58):
So that's what's up.

Speaker 21 (01:01:59):
Yeah, and Russell will say who introduced them posted about it.
They were on FaceTime Russell, Sierra and uh Normani.

Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
And and d K.

Speaker 21 (01:02:08):
And Russell said, I knew that when we introduced y'all
three years ago, love was truly in the air. Now
y'all gonna be booed up forever. This was the best news.

Speaker 1 (01:02:15):
So yes, they need to reboot love connection and let
Russell Wilson hosted them because you know, Russell and Sierra
got the relationship that everybody be liking, right, and now
he couldn't make it love connections like this.

Speaker 2 (01:02:26):
Yeah, you shouldn't figure that out, you like in TV
and stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:02:29):
No, I don't want to do that, but I just
think that's a good idea for somebody.

To do, somebody like him. Yes, actually that'd be fire, okay, Russell, Hey.

Speaker 9 (01:02:41):

Speaker 6 (01:03:01):
That's look like Lauren did not.

Speaker 4 (01:03:05):
Just let's talk about it because it's been bothering. We
started the segment.

Speaker 24 (01:03:09):
You gotta relax.

Speaker 11 (01:03:10):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:03:11):
Twenty minutes ago, Lauren was in this room trying to
convince me that she looked like Brandy, Monica and Lauren London.

Speaker 21 (01:03:18):
I did not say in London, I said, people used
to call me Lauren London because my name was Lauren
and she was one people.

Speaker 9 (01:03:23):
And because Laura la Rosa.

Speaker 2 (01:03:26):
We're not doing this again.

Speaker 3 (01:03:27):

Speaker 6 (01:03:36):
She wants to know.

Speaker 2 (01:03:37):
Because we don't know that.

Speaker 3 (01:03:38):
That's I don't say that. Other people say like that.

Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
Nobody says that you're trying to figure out how she looks.

Speaker 3 (01:03:43):
I ain't never heard of I look like Brandy and Monica.

Speaker 4 (01:03:45):
The boy is yours your us stupid?

Speaker 6 (01:05:03):
Good morning, you're checking out the breakfast club.

Speaker 2 (01:05:07):
This is a miracle, there is no question.

Speaker 23 (01:05:12):
And there are problems in this country between police and community.

Speaker 4 (01:05:17):
Yes, you are a donkey to the latest on that
police killing of a black man.

Speaker 23 (01:05:22):
Now the new developments in the deathly spatshooting rampase.

Speaker 24 (01:05:24):
Then yesday, it was a really bad day for him,
and this is what you did.

Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
And so we are in a state of emergency.

Speaker 4 (01:05:31):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:05:31):
White supremacist violence is always have been the number one
threat to our society.

Speaker 4 (01:05:36):
But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
It's the breakfast club, bitch.

Speaker 23 (01:05:42):
Please tell me why was I your donkey of the day.

Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
Yes, donkey today for Friday, March fourteenth, go this Senator
Chuck Schumer of New York, the minority leader who broke
with his party, the Democrats, on Thursday and signaled that
he will clear it away for a Republican spending bill.

Speaker 3 (01:05:57):
Let's go to Fox forty for the report police.

Speaker 12 (01:05:59):
I believe it is my job to make the best
choice for the country to minimize the harms to the
American people. Therefore, I will vote to keep the government
open and not shut it down.

Speaker 23 (01:06:12):
Schumer is only the second Senate Democrat to state definitively
his intention to vote to advance the GOP written spending bill,
but it's likely he'll give the political cover to other Democrats. Still,
Schumer admits he agrees on principle with his fellow Dems
that the bill is far from ideal.

Speaker 12 (01:06:30):
While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for
a shutdown has consequences for America that are much much worse.

Speaker 23 (01:06:39):
Schumer argued that a shutdown would leave veterans without critical
services and could empower Trump to lay off more staff
at the Social Security Administration, hurting seniors and people with disabilities.

Speaker 12 (01:06:51):
It is not a clean CR it is deeply partisan.
It doesn't address far too many of this country's needs.
But I believe allowing Donald Trump to take even more,
even much more power via a government shutdown is a
far worse option.

Speaker 7 (01:07:07):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
I don't know what happened between Wednesday and Thursday, because
on Wednesday, Chuck Schumer said he wouldn't do that. He
said Senate Democrats would not provide the votes needed for
Republicans to advance the House approved deal to fund the
government through September.

Speaker 3 (01:07:20):
In fact, Schumer.

Speaker 1 (01:07:21):
Proposed a one month stopgap measure to allow time to negotiate.
And that's what you should do if you think a
bill is terrible, negotiate. By the way, I'm not saying
the Republican bill is bad. Chuck Schumer said that. Let's
listen to him again.

Speaker 3 (01:07:33):
Say it.

Speaker 12 (01:07:34):
Listen, there is nobody in the world, nobody who wants
to shut the government down more than Donald Trump and
more than Elon Musk. While the cr bill is very bad,
the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that
are much much worse.

Speaker 1 (01:07:51):
Oh, Chuck Schumer. Oh, Democrats the party of inaction. That's
the difference between Democrats and Republicans. One party is about
inaction and one party about all action. Okay, even if
that action is harmful to the country, doesn't matter. They
are always doing something. Republicans have an agenda, they have
a plan, and they stick together, all of them to
execute that plan. It doesn't matter if Republicans go at

(01:08:14):
each other and the media disagree with each other. Because
when it comes time to vote, they all fall in nine. Okay,
they get things done. Democrats do not do this, and
this is just the latest example per usual, the party
of an action. The Democrats have failed to protect or
even attempt to fight for the interests of the American people.

Speaker 3 (01:08:31):
I know Dems don't have much leverage, but damn it,
if you got some, use it. Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
Salute to the good sister former Ohio State Senator Nina Turner.
I saw her post something last night on Instagram that
I completely agree with. She said, and I quote, as
Republicans hold a trifecta, which means they control all branches
of government, it was their party's responsibility to pass a
budget and get the votes to keep government running, not
the Democratic party end quote. Never mind that the bill

(01:08:59):
is terrible, Shuman, you said the bill is very bad.
You said the Republican bill is a terrible option. You
said it's not clean, you said it's deeply partisan, and
the most important part, it doesn't address the country's needs.
So on one hand, the government shuts down, and the
other hand, a terrible bill passes that doesn't address the
country's needs. So it sounds to me like regardless of

(01:09:19):
how this goes, working class Americans get screwed.

Speaker 3 (01:09:23):
Typical.

Speaker 1 (01:09:24):
Okay, Democrats get pushed around and bullied into doing the
Republicans bidding, typical.

Speaker 3 (01:09:29):
So, in the words of DMX, here we go again. Listen.

Speaker 1 (01:09:33):
Since twenty nineteen, I've been getting on this radio and
telling you that Democrats suck in messaging. I wrote about
it in my third book, Get on Us a Dieline. Okay,
but the reason dem suck at messaging is simply because
they have nothing to talk about. Okay, they ain't talk
about nothing. What are you talking about? What they talking about?
The ain't talking about? Not that because they have nothing
to talk about, no identity, no plan, no backbone. Republicans

(01:09:54):
are the bullies. Democrats are the cowards. And that's the story.

Speaker 8 (01:09:57):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:09:58):
But listen, in order to change the messaging, you gotta
change the people.

Speaker 6 (01:10:02):
In the party.

Speaker 1 (01:10:03):
They will always and forever continue to have a messaging
problem because Democrats have.

Speaker 3 (01:10:08):
A leadership problem.

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
And it's time for the Chuck Schumers of the world,
the Hakim Jeffreys of the world, to step down, go away.
We need people in those positions willing to fight. Not
only should Chuck Schumann Hakim Jeffrey step down. Any Democrat
who isn't fighting for the people in standing with the
party should be primary. Okay, we the people have zero
confidence in democratic leadership, all right. People will continue to

(01:10:31):
have zero confidence in Democrats until we get some new Democrats. Okay,
don't talk to me about midterms. Don't talk to me
about twenty twenty eight, because the reality is, what's the
point of voting for the type of Democrats that will
continue to do nothing?

Speaker 6 (01:10:45):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:10:46):
We need to get rid of what we got and
bring something new in. I don't want any more cowardly
Democrats who are beholding to the corporate dollar, because when
you are beholding to the corporate dollar, you are beholding
the corporate interests and not the interests of the people.
Chuck Schumer, if you know a bill is terrible, Okay,
If you know this bill doesn't serve the best interest
of the people.

Speaker 3 (01:11:05):
What are you voting for it for?

Speaker 1 (01:11:07):
Okay, you're not even gonna try to put up a
fight when it comes to budget negotiations.

Speaker 3 (01:11:11):
You're not even gonna try to negotiate.

Speaker 1 (01:11:12):
Chuck Schumer thinks that by twenty twenty six Republicans will
be so unpopular because of the policies they've implemented and
because the economy is so bad that people will just
come running back to Democrats. But does he not realize
that folks will remember that you, too, Chuck voted for
these bills. Hey, maybe Chuck Schumann doesn't really think this
bill is terrible. Maybe he likes the bill. He just
doesn't have the nuts to say, Hey, I actually like

(01:11:35):
the bill, and I'm voting for it because it's good
and I like it. I would respect that because I
don't care what party does what. I just want things
to get done so America can benefit. But once again,
because since everyone is playing politics, it simply looks like
one party, Republicans, is about action and the other party, Democrats,
is not. So what reason do I have to continue
to support the party of inaction? That narrative will not

(01:11:57):
change for Democrats until the people Democratic party are changed.
Please give Senator Chuck Schumer the biggest he hull.

Speaker 3 (01:12:08):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 5 (01:12:09):
All right, you gotta be you have to be a
Republican When you gonna come out and just say I'm
a Republican.

Speaker 3 (01:12:17):
What they gotta do with being a Republican?

Speaker 5 (01:12:19):
Did anything a istion on Democrats like I'm earlier to
day you was like, what's the point of voting for them?

Speaker 1 (01:12:26):
So it's like if I if I vote for a
party and I support a party, and I expect the
party to go in there and fight for me, and
I voted for them and fight for the American people,
You're damn right.

Speaker 3 (01:12:35):
I'm gonna be on the ass, know.

Speaker 5 (01:12:36):
What I'm saying, Like you like, can't stand these people
like you lay by hate these people like this.

Speaker 4 (01:12:42):
Now you're by he going on Republicans and he going
to Democrats, he going on everybody. You do an opportunitist,
I do.

Speaker 1 (01:12:48):
I do hate people who are not fighting for the
American people but claim to be fighting for the American people.

Speaker 3 (01:12:53):
You're absolutely right.

Speaker 11 (01:12:55):
I know.

Speaker 9 (01:12:55):
I'm telling you you are a gay Republican.

Speaker 4 (01:12:58):
That is who you are.

Speaker 8 (01:13:02):
I'm not.

Speaker 1 (01:13:02):
I'm not Republican our Democrat. I'm an American and I
want the best for the American people. So if this
man Chuck Schumer is telling me that this bill is
terrible and just yesterday he said he wouldn't vote for it,
but today he's flip flopping, yes, I'm on his ass.

Speaker 4 (01:13:18):
I will say, yeah, now, you're on everybody's ass. You're right,
you're a Republican. You you still on anybody, whether it's Republican,
whether it's Democrat, whether it's independent. People always hear you
talk about democrats more.

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
But I'm gonna tell you when you get equal opportunities,
when it comes comes to think, I'm really a Republican
when I take Ice up on this offer and I
go on this ride along with them, and I show
up to your house and I point to your house
and I say, that's where the illegals are, sir.

Speaker 4 (01:13:43):
Now, that's what the illegals are.

Speaker 1 (01:13:44):
The way, by the way, you know what, I'm gonna
put cases on both of y'all mother efforts.

Speaker 6 (01:13:49):
Okay, I can see.

Speaker 3 (01:13:54):
Now the point.

Speaker 9 (01:13:56):
Yes, yes, her family is Mexican, and.

Speaker 3 (01:14:02):
Yes that's Jesus crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:14:05):
All right, all right, well thank you for that. Donkey
to day. When we come back, Tank will be joining
us R and B singer Tank. He's on Broadway. He's
performing in Alicia Keys Broadway play. It's called Hell's Kitchen,
and we'll talk.

Speaker 6 (01:14:16):
To him next.

Speaker 4 (01:14:17):
It'll go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast.

Speaker 6 (01:14:20):
Club, everybody.

Speaker 4 (01:14:24):
It's the dj N v Jess, Hilrie, Charlamaine the Guy.
We are the breakfast club Lorla Rosa Feeling and for Jess,
we got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed,
it seems like you're trying to take our job doing
all these interviews and stuff. Ladies and gentlemen. We have
RMB singatang Tank.

Speaker 8 (01:14:37):
I'm not trying to take your job.

Speaker 4 (01:14:39):
You're doing a phenomenal Jess guess you are.

Speaker 26 (01:14:43):
I am just.

Speaker 8 (01:14:43):
Catering to my people.

Speaker 25 (01:14:46):
I'm making sure that my community has a place to go,
that the conversation is bridged from the old to the news.

Speaker 24 (01:14:54):
I love it.

Speaker 4 (01:14:54):
You know what I love about the Army Money podcast.

Speaker 1 (01:14:56):
There's always so many hip hop podcasts, and you know,
the rappers.

Speaker 3 (01:14:59):
Got plate to go, the O g rappers got to
play to go. R and B Money has created that space.

Speaker 25 (01:15:03):
For the R and B world and now the R
and B Music Awards. You guys have a dedicated hip
hop not you. Hip hop has a dedicated award show,
right whereas the R and B dedicated award show. So
that we can cover the entire gambit of R and B.
R and B is so many things. It's so vast.

(01:15:25):
You can't cover it in two to three categories at
some award show and think that that's going to do
it all justice.

Speaker 1 (01:15:38):
As an R and B icon, like you are, what
are the categories of R and B? Because all we
think is R and B.

Speaker 8 (01:15:43):
Let's go soul.

Speaker 25 (01:15:45):
You get into the songwriter aspect of it, the producer
aspect of it, even the performance aspect of it. You know,
all of these things are so different. Like Jill Scott
is way different from from a Somemer Walker, you know
what I mean. It's way different. Calvin Richardson is way

(01:16:06):
different from Chris Brown, you know what I mean? And
so how do we create these tiers and levels to
where all of the nuances of R and B can
be recognized?

Speaker 3 (01:16:14):
Give me an example of progressive.

Speaker 8 (01:16:16):
Oh CB is progressive?

Speaker 25 (01:16:17):
Okay, completely, He's He's the current state of R and
B B, you know what I mean. Even if we
want to say what what Drake and Party just did?

Speaker 8 (01:16:28):
You know what I mean? That's very progressive R and B.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 25 (01:16:31):
If you want to say what is more traditional, I'm
more in the middle of a traditional progressive R and
B artist because I can do a record with Chris Brown,
but you know, I can also do a record with
God rest his store and Angie Stone.

Speaker 4 (01:16:43):
See.

Speaker 1 (01:16:43):
I like the traditional and I said that when the
Party and Drake album dropped, I was like, that.

Speaker 3 (01:16:47):
Ain't for me.

Speaker 4 (01:16:48):
And it was like, well, you know, it's for the
ladies because the R and B.

Speaker 3 (01:16:50):
I'm like, no, God like R and B. I just
don't like that type of army exactly exactly.

Speaker 8 (01:16:55):
There's a difference.

Speaker 25 (01:16:56):
And so we have not had the conversation about all
of these things together. We just say best R and
B album, and then you got Chris Brown in the
same category with Robert Glasberg.

Speaker 8 (01:17:09):
It's like, how do you do that? We're not all
just one thing?

Speaker 4 (01:17:13):
So when are you doing this? Is it thought out
to that where it's going to happen.

Speaker 25 (01:17:16):
It's been It's been great conversations, you know what I mean,
Me and my brother Jay Valentine. We've actually had this
conversation with Jessic Collins and so, you know, all of this.
What I'm doing right now is just kind of creating
the anticipation and the desire and hopefully that enough comments
will come and people will see the value, because that's
where it starts. People have to see the value in

(01:17:39):
what we do in order to create this next level platform.

Speaker 1 (01:17:42):
Would on leave black effect and I heart out the conversation,
you know them to put together a good award show.

Speaker 8 (01:17:47):
Well, what do you want to do?

Speaker 4 (01:17:48):
I want to help with the harmby Money award show.
That'd be fantastic.

Speaker 6 (01:17:51):
There you go done. I want to know how is
it for you, right?

Speaker 4 (01:17:55):
Knowing all these R and B stories, right, and I'm
watching your podcast and I know you know the answers,
but of these times it hasn't been put out there
and you're just feeding the person, right, Like I look
at Stephen Hill. But the Chris Brown situation, Yeah, you're
leading him because you knew what happened, but making him.

Speaker 6 (01:18:10):
Explain the story was amazing.

Speaker 8 (01:18:12):
I didn't know what happened. Really, I didn't even know
he was part of it.

Speaker 25 (01:18:15):
I knew from Chris's side that they had got him
all the way to the point of where it happen
it was about to happen, and then pulled the rug
out from under him. I didn't know the intimate details
and who all was involved. And hearing Steve like Steven
is like you know, he loves he loves that he

(01:18:36):
loves it. He felt like he was getting ready to
create one of the most iconic moments of all times,
and he worked for that rehearsal Jesus he was. He
was and it heard him that now he you know,
has to go back and tell c B that it's
not happened, you know what I mean? Like that, that
crushed him more than anything. And he was like, man,

(01:18:57):
if you could ever talk to him, just let him
know I I love him, I want you know, I
wanted that for him.

Speaker 8 (01:19:02):
I just they pulled it from me. Nothing I could do.

Speaker 21 (01:19:05):
I was going to ask that you put them on
the phone after that, because he said in your interview
that they hadn't he hadn't gotten well. He wanted to
see him in person to apologize and stuff like that.

Speaker 8 (01:19:12):
So no, we didn't.

Speaker 25 (01:19:13):
We didn't get a chance to make that happen. Okay,
but I'd love to make that happen for another.

Speaker 3 (01:19:16):
One of my favorite R and B Money podcasts recently
was La Read.

Speaker 1 (01:19:20):
That was so like he really sparked a real conversation
and it just had me thinking about, Yes, you need
you need Black Boutique everything you need that we.

Speaker 25 (01:19:30):
Need to be able to operate the way we operate.
Just let us do what we do. Like even with
what you guys do. You guys do what you do,
which is why it is what it is. There's nobody
micro managing or policing you. You get your paycheck, whatever
that is. But it's because of how you do your thing.
Nobody's interrupting that, which is why it's what how many

(01:19:53):
years in the making, Jesus Christ, Imagine if you had
no control of that, you know what I mean. Imagine
imagine you being subject to somebody else's ideas, somebody else's
and then you lose with that. That hurts worse than
anything I lost listening to you, na, na, I'm gonna
go down with me word, I'm gonna go down with me.

(01:20:14):
And that's what we've lost. We've lost the people that
have done it from from here. I just believe, Like
think about DeAngelo's untitled. If somebody just doesn't say I
just I just feel like this is different, they never
get to the third single, which is a life changing record.

Speaker 8 (01:20:35):
I don't have that no more. Our analytics say we're
losing here, We're that right.

Speaker 4 (01:20:40):
Well, how does it feel?

Speaker 24 (01:20:41):
Wasn't the third single? Was it?

Speaker 1 (01:20:43):
How does it feel with the third single, The Butt
Naked Video was a third single.

Speaker 8 (01:20:47):
Wow, I did not know that.

Speaker 4 (01:20:49):
How do we not get that's.

Speaker 6 (01:20:51):
Gonna be greatest songs of all times?

Speaker 8 (01:20:56):
Wow? You know what I mean?

Speaker 25 (01:20:58):
Genuine is so anxious. If Joe Moore didn't say we
gotta get to this one, we gotta get to this one,
this one right here is going to change. And trust me,
Maybe I Deserve was my second single. If we were
just going off for first singles. I'm not gonna name
the first song I had out, but I was dancing
and flipping and blowing up.

Speaker 3 (01:21:17):
Yeah, we'll take for a remember because I remember Maybe Deserve.

Speaker 8 (01:21:20):
Shouldn't have brought that up, but you said it.

Speaker 2 (01:21:23):
I just heard the song.

Speaker 8 (01:21:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 25 (01:21:28):
My first single was called Freaking, and it almost destroyed
my career before started. The label picked it, but I
was very excited about it as well.

Speaker 3 (01:21:39):
When I googled it and said the song many have missed.

Speaker 1 (01:21:42):
Actually the first single Freaky, which came out first, and
it's pretty much become obscure.

Speaker 8 (01:21:46):
Today I was performing the song.

Speaker 25 (01:21:51):
I was on promo tour Fort Valley State home coming
and I'm you know, I'm coming out. I got my
freaky interlude, you know, they want to get freaky. And
then the song starts and like, right in the middle
of the first hook, these two little cute girls in
the first row was like wack. I was like, and
this was in the dat tape era, so I couldn't

(01:22:13):
stop it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:16):
Through the song.

Speaker 6 (01:22:17):
Damn.

Speaker 8 (01:22:17):
Then I sweated the rest of the song and I
never sang that song again.

Speaker 4 (01:22:23):
Damn.

Speaker 25 (01:22:24):
I said, don't put on the album, erase it, get
rid of this song. And we did a hard turn
cut the single Winter Maybe I Deserve Thank God.

Speaker 6 (01:22:32):
Wow in the rest is history. Rest is history.

Speaker 4 (01:22:35):
We got more with Tank when we come back. It's
the breakfast Club. Good Morning, boring everybody. It's the j
n V. Jess Hilary is Charlamagne the guy. We are
the breakfast Club. We're still kicking in with Tank. Charlamagne.

Speaker 1 (01:22:46):
Why Broadway right now? Because you are featured in Luia
ki Hell's Kitchen White.

Speaker 25 (01:22:51):
And it's timing bro Because for me, twenty twenty five
was the hard pivot into acting. You know, the music
thing has been so much of my bread and butter
and so much of my focus for so long. I
was like, I gotta get to the other thing that
I love. And Charlie mcka had always been telling me, Bro,
you're gonna have to make a hard pivot in order
to really do it the right way. And I was like, Okay,

(01:23:12):
I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do it. And with
twenty twenty five coming in the way that it did
and having a free moment and opportunity, I'd always heard
horror stories about Broadway, you know what I mean, just
in terms of the workload and the pay to pay,
the facility, all of that, and I was like, yeah,
I probably never do Broadway. And then I get you know,

(01:23:32):
we get this call from Alisha like, hey, Alisha is
looking for you to do you know. It was kitching
me what and I'm like, you know, the name Alicia
Keys is already like that's interesting. Gotta at least see
what that's about, right, And so I send some papers
over from me look at and I'm like, okay, I'm
looking at it. I'm all right, I'll go see you

(01:23:53):
know what I mean, just out of respect for that
name itself.

Speaker 1 (01:23:56):
So you go watch the play before you absolutely okay,
So you saw when Brandon VI Dixon was playing actually.

Speaker 25 (01:24:02):
Well he wasn't he wasn't there. His sub was in
Who's Who's Who's Who's Dope as well. And I watched
the play and I fell in love with it, and
the next day was actually my walk in audition, and
so I kind of knew where I needed to be
and and at that point it was just like, I
think it's time. I think I think it is. It

(01:24:25):
has answered the question for me, I you know what
I mean. Me and Lulu were telling my manager. Lulu
was talking to me. He's like, I just it just
does something different for you, brother, It just does something
really different. And in deliberating, I was just deliberating, like
is this the time to like just take a hard
left and out of nowhere?

Speaker 8 (01:24:42):
Charlie met Colls. Me hadn't talked to him a minute,
and he's like, what's going on?

Speaker 15 (01:24:46):
Wrong?

Speaker 25 (01:24:47):
Was like nothing, just just chilling. He wanted to come
to my Atlantic City show. I'm like, oh, I got
you love, he said, I said, imagine question. I got
this on the table right now. And he said, what
you're talking about? I said, well, asking you you don't
need my opinion. You know what you supped there was
that here I am and so you know when I said,
I said with Alisha the other day, learned that in Blackstone,

(01:25:07):
and she was like, Tank, I just felt like it
was you. It's like, I didn't know why. She's like,
it was it just to me, it just felt like
it was huge. And She's like, I didn't even know
if you could act. And I was like, you ain't.
You ain't seen me on Lifetime or BBT. You know
what I'm saying a TV one, I'm the Denzel of
that space. You know what I'm saying, space, I'm the

(01:25:27):
Denzel of that space. You ain't sing none of that.
But she had never seen me act, and she was like,
and then when I saw you in the audition, she
was like, I was just blown away. And I was like, no,
that's that's what I do. Singing is that's whatever. And
so she and I went back and forth, singing back
and forth, her you know, singing her amazing catalog and
my debut on Tuesday.

Speaker 8 (01:25:48):
And so now it's like, how tough it's real?

Speaker 4 (01:25:50):
How tough is it to rehearsals? And do you have
to shut everything else off and the time for yourself now,
because it just seems like a doesn't stop.

Speaker 25 (01:25:58):
I'm a machine. So I'm a routine guy, you know
what I mean. So I'm gonna get up, help get
the kids to school, do cardio, eat, go to the gym,
do the second lift, go to the studio, either work
on music or do pod get back, eat, dinner with
the family, get some lifetime in, and the next day

(01:26:19):
do the same thing.

Speaker 8 (01:26:21):
I'm a machine. I'm built like that. So Broadway schedule
works perfect for who I am now.

Speaker 25 (01:26:28):
Eight shows a week crazy. That's where it get different
because you know they call it. You know, you have
an A show, a B show, and a C show.
In terms of how you perform. I've never been able
to do a B show and feel good about it,
like because all of those people, whether it's a Wednesday

(01:26:48):
or Saturday, they spent their money to see something great.
They spent their money to see somebody go all out.
So I'm doing a shows from Tuesday this Sunday, and
we got one day off that's Monday, and right back
to it.

Speaker 2 (01:27:05):
What's your rest day? Like on a Monday? Like both,
don't I just?

Speaker 25 (01:27:10):
I just so, I'm going to have my first Monday
next to the next Monday. Nothing, go to the gym,
you know what I'm saying he eats eat some cool
food somewhere, you know, maybe keeping Charlottmagne and my heart
and talk about this awards.

Speaker 4 (01:27:28):
What about the family, like, because.

Speaker 8 (01:27:29):
Family was just here.

Speaker 25 (01:27:30):
They came for the for the for the debut, My
mom and then came up, wife zoean zign came up
and it was really it was really really cool.

Speaker 18 (01:27:39):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:27:39):
Thirteen weeks is a long time to be away from them,
especially if you've got a routine.

Speaker 25 (01:27:44):
Like you said, it's it's tougher for them than it
is for me because for me, I'm you know, I'm
hyper focused. I'm in it and I have something to
do every day, something to look forward to, and so
you know, the wife is at home doing the kid
thing and all that.

Speaker 8 (01:27:56):
But that's why, you know, that's what it is. It's
a teams marriage. She holds that down.

Speaker 25 (01:28:00):
I'm gonna hold this down. But this, to me is like,
what's the opportunity for people in that space to understand
that I'm serious about going here. You know, Kevin was
in town the other day, so I went and you know,
saw him and chopped it up with him and he
was like, I'm really really proud of you. For making
this move. It says a lot about the next level

(01:28:21):
of where you can go and who you can be
and so that's what I'm looking forward to.

Speaker 3 (01:28:25):
So you gotta shows the night. Yeah, Oh, I get
to take it.

Lauren Lerosa is here and my niece Nili Simona's hair
for pastor offic.

Speaker 6 (01:30:54):
Yeah, DJ, come big, Nylo.

Speaker 1 (01:30:59):
I'm glad you here because they've been trolling me all
morning man about well, it's a well calculated strategic thing
they got going on.

Speaker 3 (01:31:05):
Taylor came in here, and Taylor.

Speaker 1 (01:31:07):
Was like, just randomly, Lauren, you should start dressing like
Brandy because you look like Brandy.

Speaker 4 (01:31:12):
Brandy even dressed like.

Speaker 21 (01:31:13):
Yo, are you like slow or you just like this
is how you are Halloween? I should be bringing But
how is this trolling you?

Speaker 1 (01:31:22):
Because then she goes, yeah, people say I look like Brandy,
and then she goes and then people say I look
like Monica. So I'm just sitting there trying to mind
my business, but I know they want me to say something,
so I had to say something.

Speaker 3 (01:31:32):
I was like, you don't look like Brandy all Monica,
you look like Ray J.

Speaker 6 (01:31:35):
Yeah, what we got today?

Speaker 4 (01:31:38):
What we got?

Speaker 2 (01:31:38):
And first off, shout out to Saint Lounge.

Speaker 27 (01:31:40):
I've been doing Ladies Night every Thursday there and it's
really was a vibe. Last night I had Kenderman in
there and Cali in there, so shout out to both
of them.

Speaker 11 (01:31:49):
Those are my girls.

Speaker 27 (01:31:50):
And Ken just dropped the album and my favorite record
on there's called Big.

Speaker 3 (01:31:54):
Still in My Corner like Gracie, are still in my
corner like Gracy?

Speaker 8 (01:31:57):
She ate that.

Speaker 3 (01:31:58):
Yeah, Kendo Manhart.

Speaker 27 (01:32:01):
She ain't well, you know, she's got of a crazy situation.
So now she's independent and she's releasing music.

Speaker 2 (01:32:07):
And I thought, because I remember where she got signed,
I thought that was like such a big thing for her.

Speaker 27 (01:32:12):
Now, well, it's a good thing with the music industry
is shifting and sometimes people are casualties and thing that's.

Speaker 21 (01:32:16):
Like that always happened to the people that can actually
do stuff like really rat really because she also has
a great esthetic too, she does.

Speaker 27 (01:32:23):
But I think Ken has a like strong enough fan
base that's following her, so all she has to do
is just keep going. And there's this record on there
with her and Cali, they're like my favorite best friend
rap girl duo called I Got Questions that I really
really like to make sure you guys definitely tune into
that project. But next time we get into iceworar Vissil,
who dropped his album I want to say two weeks ago,
but he got this record on there with Big Sean

(01:32:44):
and Scale a baby called W're Something and it's very fire.

Speaker 2 (01:32:49):
Put that on my picture. Okay, it's okay, I know
you got more photos. Make sure you like that. It's
like We're's Something.

Speaker 27 (01:32:57):
It's like Big Sean gave a really good verse and
ice wear verse, though I feel like it was just
more better.

Speaker 3 (01:33:02):
But why first then?

Speaker 2 (01:33:05):
Because the song?

Speaker 27 (01:33:06):
Yeah, but Big Sean has, you know, a bigger name,
so I just wanted to get the obvious.

Speaker 3 (01:33:09):
My guy, Bezel, the bezel Man Detroit what.

Speaker 27 (01:33:11):
Up though, Yes, shout out to Detroit and last but
not at least, I'm gonna take it back home to
New York City.

Speaker 2 (01:33:18):

Speaker 4 (01:33:19):

You from Delaware, from Germany, from South Carolina, I'm not from.

Speaker 10 (01:33:36):
What makes you from you?

Speaker 2 (01:33:37):
From Germany? What makes you from somewhere you were born
and raised? But what if those are two different places?

Speaker 3 (01:33:43):

Speaker 27 (01:33:43):
Anyway, well, or at least when I stay home. This
artist is actually performing at the next sort of five Vibe.
It's R and B Night next Friday. It's Abby Jazz
Main Dreamy around Tanna. But Abby got this dope record
call Uptown?

Speaker 4 (01:34:04):
Don't want to go uptown no more?

Speaker 6 (01:34:06):

Speaker 2 (01:34:08):
I don't blame her Puerto Rican. He could just be
from Harlem.

Speaker 4 (01:34:11):
I told you in America come from the Bronx, and
all of Florida felt that.

Speaker 2 (01:34:15):
