Speaker 5 (05:07):

Yeah, yeah, looks like they're gonna get to the super Bowl.
But what's uping to me?
Speaker 14 (05:47):
Good morning?
Speaker 15 (05:47):
Envy, Josh Charlamagne, How y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 16 (05:50):
Girl?
Speaker 14 (05:51):
Good morning?
Speaker 15 (05:52):
Will we start this morning in Minnesota where tensions are
running high and the situation continues to escalate. Now, this
all traces back to the fatal shooting of Renee Good,
a mother of three and a US citizen, who was
killed by an ICE officer in Minneapolis earlier this month.
That since then, federal immigration enforcement has expanded across the
city and protests have intensified. And now the federal response
(06:15):
is also growing. The Pentagon has placed about fifteen hundred
troops on standby as President Trump openly floats invoking the
Insurrection Act. That's a law that would allow federal troops
to be deployed inside the US Now. At the same time,
the Justice Department is investigating Minnesota's top leaders. Federal officials
are examining whether Governor Tim Waltz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob
(06:38):
Fry interfered with federal immigration operations through public criticism of
ICE and the federal handling of Good's death.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Now, as protests.
Speaker 15 (06:46):
Continued over the weekend, they moved beyond the streets and
into a church. On Sunday, demonstrators entered city's church in
Saint Paul, interrupting services and chanting Ice out and calling
for justice for Renee Good. Testers say they targeted that
church because they believe one of its pastors, David Easterwood,
also leads the local ICE field office at that protest,
(07:09):
is now the center of a federal investigation, pulling in
former CNN anchor Don Lemon into the story. Now he
livestream from inside the church on his YouTube channel, But
the Justice Department says otherwise. They are accusing Leomen of
embedding himself in the protests. Let's listen to the civil
Rights Chief of the Justice Civil Rights Justice Department Chief.
Speaker 17 (07:30):
Journalism is not a badge or shield that protects you
from criminal consequences when you are part of a crime.
And I think the videos show how close he was
to these folks. I think further evidence will show more
information about that. But he clearly knew, and he stated
before going into the facility. It's on his own video
(07:52):
what was going to happen there. What was going to
happen was a violation of federal law. It's off limits
to go into a house of worship to do the
little protests. Protests can occur on public property. Protests can
occur outside on a sidewalk, certain.
Speaker 18 (08:06):
Sidewalks, not all sidewalks.
Speaker 19 (08:08):
There's a time placed in manner restrictions on the First
Amendment write a protest, and they were violated here in
this case, no question about it.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
The only question is who was involved, how many.
Speaker 19 (08:18):
Were involved, and how many chargers are going to be
brought here? Those are the questions.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Now.
Speaker 15 (08:23):
This portion, and this is the portion of Leomen's coverage
that the Justice Department seems to be pointing to, is
part of what you just heard in that SoundBite just there.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Let's listen to that.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
This is an operation that is a secret that they
invited folks out.
Speaker 10 (08:40):
This is operation pull out, more of a clandestine operation.
Speaker 9 (08:43):
We show up somewhere, they don't expect us to come there,
and then we disrupt business as usual.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
So right now is kind of mayhem.
Speaker 20 (08:52):
We're not part of the activist but we're here just
recording on them.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
The they's going to do whither' here they did.
Speaker 21 (09:00):
They said that there's someone here at Listerwood, someone who
is a member of.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
ICE and he's a pastor of the church.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Our church had gathered for worship.
Speaker 6 (09:09):
We should do.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Every Sunday, we asked him to leave, and they.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Obviously have not theft.
Speaker 15 (09:17):
So that is the portion that the Justice Department is
saying that Don Lemon was embedding himself into the protest
by saying before that there was some secret operation happening.
You know, he was doing his reporting beforehand before going
into the church, and then he followed the protesters into
the church, and after the scene inside the church, the
administration says the protests is now under federal review and
(09:40):
investigators are examining possible violations of the Face Act, and
that's what makes it illegal to disrupt religious services a women.
He is pushing back on those accusations, saying that he
was only there to report, not to participate in noting
that other journalists were also there. Let's listen to some
of his pushback.
Speaker 22 (09:58):
Did no planning. There's no EVI of any planning. But
I was there covering the protesters. I flew into Minneapolis
that morning they were holding an event, and I said, well,
why don't I just go with you guys to see
what you're doing today, And they said, fine, come with us,
and I chronicle it throughout my show live. I had
no idea of the planning. I didn't even know where
we were going, not that that even matters. Again, I'm
(10:20):
a journalist. That's what I was doing. I talked to
the people at the church. I talked to the pastor,
I talked to the congregants, I talked to the protesters,
and that's it.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
And then I left. Also, I wasn't the only.
Speaker 22 (10:31):
Journalist there, so I'm not quite sure how I became
the face in the headline.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
He clearly said that he wasn't part of that protest,
and he was a documentary that he did say that.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
He did say that.
Speaker 15 (10:40):
He said that a couple of times in the middle
and towards the end when it was over. And so
President Trump, he's also weighing in as well, reposting a
message on True Social calling for Lemon to be prosecuted
under that Face Act that we just mentioned, and he's
citing past cases that carried up to a forty year
sentences on that.
Speaker 6 (10:59):
Yeah, I don't like.
Speaker 7 (11:00):
Giving more attention to Don Lemon than we do the
officer who killed her. Innate good, Like that's just a
distraction from the officer Jonathan Ross, because what's up with that?
Like I saw Christy Noms say, the officer, Jonathan Ross
is under internal review. But then I saw an FBI
agent city not go to investigate him. Then I saw
Christy Nome saying they shouldn't say the office's name because
people will dox them, Like, what the hell is going
on me?
Speaker 15 (11:19):
That is exactly all of those things are going on.
So the FBI had initially started investigating Jonathan Ross, and
then they quickly pivoted, and now they're investigating her widow
and see if she has any ties to any activists,
and so that case is happening. And then at the
same time, I saw on the Sunday programming where Christinham
did not want to give the name of Jonathan Ross
although it's public right, she didn't want to say the
(11:41):
name because she says that he will be docs and
people will go after him.
Speaker 14 (11:45):
But we already know who it is.
Speaker 15 (11:46):
And so, you know, it's the administration seems to be
pushing people away from, you know, what is really happening
and finding distractions. Again, here we are because a journalist
doing their job has no bearing on you know, what's
actually really going on inside of ICE, right, I mean
inside of Minnesota, which is you know, those Ice raids
and you know all the protests and the things that
(12:07):
we're seeing inside Minneapolis right now.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
Yeah, because I mean protests has got to do two things, right, Like, yes,
you can scream justice for Renee Good, but what does
that look like? That looks like you know, you know,
arresting the officer Jonathan Ross. Are at least calling for
a real investigation of Jonathan.
Speaker 15 (12:21):
Rock, Yeah, exactly. So we will continue to follow what
happens with this. But again, you know, sometimes things seem
what's up is down and what's left is right, and
so we have to kind of, you know, dig a
little deeper to find exactly what's happening, uh with this
with this administration and what's happening in the state of Minnesota.
So coming up at seven, we'll unpacked also the growing
(12:44):
tensions in Greenland and while the Nobel Peace Prize is
now part of that conversation.
Speaker 5 (12:50):

Good morning, y'all, Good morning.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
I love y'all all.
Speaker 9 (15:21):
I just wanted to get this off my chance this morning.
So I have a bachelor's in criminal justice and keep
going getting an interviews, but I'm not getting the preventions
or getting job offers in that career field because they say.
Speaker 18 (15:37):
I don't have any experience.
Speaker 9 (15:39):
But how am I supposed to get any experience if
y'all's not going to give you the chance to work?
Not to mention, then I followed what society says to
achieve the Americans lam I have about said, uh student
loan debt that I'm not receiving.
Speaker 18 (15:56):
Overturn all that I have invested in damn. So I
just wanted to get that off my.
Speaker 9 (16:01):
Chest, you know. And it's not like you know, I'm
gonna write your work. I've been working two thousands or eleven
years old, you know, purfield hand. You know, I worked
up until I was none much printed. The day before
I had my daughter, I was orf for somebody's job,
you know.
Speaker 18 (16:18):
So I'm not a bad worker.
Speaker 9 (16:20):
And it's like that I'm just I don't know what
to do. You know at this point, you know, I
work a decil job right now, but it doesn't a
point to the time and effort I put the to
be able to do more for myself and my family.
Speaker 7 (16:35):
I feel like there's so many people with that same.
You get your education and you go out there and
you work hard. In American promises you all this milk
and honey, but then you don't get all that milk
and honey.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
And not only that, then they gotta pay their loans
back and it takes them eight to ten years to
pay that loan back.
Speaker 6 (16:49):
Yep. Next thing, you know, you say that, not.
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Even to mention the student loans is affecting my credit
and everything. So I can't qualified for no house, say business.
I was blessed to inherit a house that I'm currently
fixing up right now, but I had to be through
a he locked and everything. But even that, you know,
it's a struggle to try to keep that in the family.
Speaker 18 (17:16):
I just I don't. I don't get it, you.
Speaker 9 (17:17):
Know, And I've talked our network, I've talked to people,
you know, you know, police officers and everything like that.
Speaker 26 (17:24):
You know, I don't.
Speaker 18 (17:25):
I'm not you know understand that there's.
Speaker 9 (17:27):
Things going on out here that I found upon in
the police system. But I understand that everybody is not
that you know either, And I feel like I chose
to go into this career field because they need more
people like me in that career field.
Speaker 18 (17:43):
Can you know, keep those checks and balances in place?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
But what would you like to do, Like, what would
you like to do with your with your bachelor's degree?
Speaker 9 (17:49):
Well, I would just I would like to work in
at the police station or like in the port system.
Speaker 7 (17:55):
Okay, yeah, I just had I just I got a
friend who's going into the police and cant to me
to fast track their way to be an attorney. I
didn't understand what, you know, what they were trying to
explain to me. But I don't know, right she doesn't
want to be a police officer. She just wants to
work in the place, you know what I'm saying. But
the department when you worked there, othern't that fast tracked
you to the courtroom or something like that.
Speaker 9 (18:15):
Well, I feel like that's kind of not staying though
that myst go out.
Speaker 18 (18:18):
Here and do a b cop, you know, in order
to then for something.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
Else that has nothing to do with that, you know,
put me in a part, you know, with do some
administration work and let me, you know, climb the ladder.
From there, I gotta scare people, shoot people, and I'm
a scary person.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
I got you. Well, when do you figure out here
on one of these would you.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
Think about leaving Florida, maybe finding a position somewhere outside
of Florida, maybe where they're hiring more people.
Speaker 9 (18:46):
Well, yes, I thought about that too, but it's already
bad enough. I'm here in Jacksonville right now because my
sound suffered from a traumatic brain injury, so he wouldn't
hear your service from port.
Speaker 18 (18:58):
But I'm originally from our left door, and that's where
most of my family is. It's just, you know, really
just me and my brother and my my little sister.
Speaker 9 (19:05):
My little sister she suffered severely from bipolar disorder where
she have met an episode, you know. And then my
two other symbolis they have you know, their issues going off,
but they are college educated and they've been.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
That's right.
Speaker 27 (19:53):
No, oh my god, we're going to keep it in
that positive I had it long lovely. Yeah, okay, but
I don't know the word dumb you it just don't know.
But you don't sit well with me when you say
what let's focus. Nigga min Ichaz entered the Don Leman chat.
I don't know why she's making her face herself the
(20:15):
face of a religion and politics, but we're gonna have
a conversation about what does this actually help and the
thing she said because she gets a push.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Back for it. All right, we'll get to that next.
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, yellow, cool, bad.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Yeah, I mean not dumbing myself down. I'm being myself.
Speaker 27 (20:32):
I'm know how gout that knows a little bit about
everything and everything the little brown girls.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Look at you, and God, I want to be like you.
Speaker 28 (20:39):
Take me to that breakfast club.
Speaker 24 (20:47):
Talk to me.
Speaker 27 (20:50):
Okay, so I know this morning Mimi Brown in front
Page News talk to us about, you know, some of
the protests happening in Minneapolis because really good and Don
Lemon and how he's coming to the But Nicki Minaj
is being called out by some people for being, according
to them, homophobic. And the reason why this is happening
is because when the live stream that Donovan did on
(21:11):
his YouTube channel went live and you got picked up
by Knew, she decided Nicki Minaj should tweet about it.
And her tweet says don s word sucking Lemon is disgusting.
How dare you question Mark? I want that thug in jail.
He would never do that to any other religion.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Lock him up.
Speaker 27 (21:27):
And then there's a photo of a chucky doll. Then
she tweets Happy New Year. Then she tweets she retweets
a post by a woman who was talking about the
fact that Don Lemon is married to a white man.
He married Tim Malone, real estate agent, back in twenty
twenty four.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
They started tweeting doctor him all that they.
Speaker 27 (21:46):
Started tweeting and Nicki Minaj reposted it. So I don't
know if it made it the doctor yet, but yeah.
So they talk about their questioning whether he's pro black
or not because of his relationship, and Nicki Minaj retweets
that and says true or false question mark hashtag arrests
Don Lemon. She then tweets photos and she's saying, the
world is watching now. Like I mentioned, you have the
Hollywood reporter Yahoo people that are having a conversation about
(22:09):
her being homophobic. She's trying to have a conversation about
whether Donomona should be locked up or not for.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
Well, it's the way she said sea sucking.
Speaker 7 (22:17):
Yeah, she made it seem like, you know, it was
a bad thing to be a sea sucker.
Speaker 27 (22:21):
But I just feel like her whole if her whole
thing is to bring attention to I think Don Lemon
should be arrested, and all the news coverage is about
the fact that she's homophobic. I think it most of
the news coverage, and on one side, I think it
kind of defeats the purpose.
Speaker 7 (22:33):
But I disagree with you because all I saw yesterday
was them actually calling for Don Lemon to be arrested.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
They literally said they were going to bring charges up
against Don.
Speaker 27 (22:40):
Yeah, I saw there was going to be like the
KKK law that they were going to try to use.
But on one side, I think there's a lot of
conversation about the homophobia now. But Don Lemon himself responded
and he also talked about you know this being homophobic
or not. Let's take a listen to Don Lemon responding
to Nicki Minaj.
Speaker 20 (22:56):
So people have been asking me about responding to Nicki
Minaj's unhinged homophobic tweet about me. Let me just say this,
Nicki Minaj, stop talking about for which you know nothing about.
This is out of your out of your depth, and
you are a homophobic bigot. You don't care about African Americans,
and you're not an African American from what I know.
(23:17):
You are reportedly an undocumented citizen, so you should be
deported under Donald Trump's rules. And the other thing is
that your family members, you have one family member who's
reportedly a sex offender, the other family member of your
husband or whatever.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
A sex offender is your husband.
Speaker 20 (23:30):
And one of them is reportedly a pedophile, and you
have nerve to talk about me and what you think
that I do get a life.
Speaker 6 (23:40):
Stop being a pick me.
Speaker 20 (23:42):
You should have put a pickney doll on that damn
tweet instead of a chucky doll, because you are nothing
but a pick me.
Speaker 6 (23:48):
I choose not to pick you.
Speaker 20 (23:50):
And social black people and social gay people shouldn't buy
your music clock that.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
I will say something now.
Speaker 7 (23:55):
When I heard donal Leman do that rant yesterday, I
guess it never dawned on me.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
I didn't realize nick I was undo dynamited.
Speaker 7 (24:02):
Yeah, I thought that the whole deportation thing was just
a joke. I didn't realize that she thought so too,
but I did see.
Speaker 27 (24:07):
So the same people who are calling for Don Leman
to be locked up or did all the things right,
they're also saying that what he said about her being
undocumented wasn't a thing. But I do know that there
is that not true. There's there's conversation back and forth,
and here's why. So on one side, you have the
petition on change dot org, which is over ninety two
thousand signatures right now, asking for Nicki Mina I should
be deported now. Back in twenty sixteen, Back in twenty sixteen,
(24:30):
Nicki Minat yourself talked about Donald Trump wanting her to
go home and spoke out against deportation policies. And then
in twenty eighteen, she did the same thing, speaking against
Trump and his family separation policies because of her connections
to Trinidad.
Speaker 6 (24:43):
But she undocumented or not she was, I don't know the.
Speaker 4 (24:46):
Answer to that.
Speaker 6 (24:47):
She came over, she was fine.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Yeah, I don't know she did the paperwork to become
a citizen or if she's dual citizenship, we don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
But she was definitely born in Trinette.
Speaker 7 (24:55):
When I looked at her yesterday, I saw her she
posted on Instagram. I guess back in the day I
came to this country as an a legal immigrant. I
didn't know that. Yeah, she talks about the old time
being born in Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
She has a she hare's a song.
Speaker 27 (25:09):
Uh well, yeah, she's talked about it before.
Speaker 4 (25:12):
We just mentioned this.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
But all this time, shoudn't she like be here legally?
Speaker 4 (25:17):
Don't like, shouldn't she We don't know for a fact
that she's not.
Speaker 6 (25:20):
We don't.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I mean she married so that she technically got a
great but that happens to a lot of people.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
Like people come here as a kid, they never get
their citizenship because they don't really think about it. They
consider these South American and then they get in trouble
and then they get like that happened to Sean.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Sean was Yeah, even what's his name?
Speaker 5 (25:36):
If you watched Real Housewives of New Jersey, Teresa's husband
jo Ju Dice, he went to elementary school here, middle
school here, high school here, uh college and then when
you get a crime.
Speaker 7 (25:46):
All of you said, she's not a US citizen. I
don't know what that means. I'm sure she paid plenty
of taxes here.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Well, she's in speaking of her marriage.
Speaker 27 (25:55):
A lot of people feel like the you know, the
conversations and all of the support of the Trump administration,
which Donoman mentioned in his CMC interview that he did
about this, is because she's trying to cozy up to
the Trump Trump administration to act for pardons for her husband.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
And you know that's been a whole conversation as well too.
Speaker 7 (26:11):
So if she, I guess, allegedly undocumented, I would think
that would be more of a reason to cozy up
to the Trump administration than the other stuff.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Yeah, well, well we'll see as this goes.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Because and that team they're not deporting.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
On No, she went to the US for that.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
She supports them too much. They're not deporting on.
Speaker 6 (26:29):
Yeah, I don't know why she would trust them people. Yeah,
I don't know why you would trust either to say that.
Speaker 27 (26:36):
I mean, I think because right now, think about all
of the you know, all of the conversation, and she's
kind of like a face of the Trump administration now.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
And it's sucker.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
If youse in a way where you're trying to like,
you know, disparaging.
Speaker 29 (26:50):
Somebody for it, yes, Manna, No.
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Not if you're disparaging me for doing it. You know,
are you crazy?
Speaker 1 (27:00):
But you can describe your woman. I don't mean that.
Don't make it a slur like you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
It's just about how you about We got prostitutes, We
do it, Lauren. But he said it, and she said
it in a disparaging way because he is homosexual.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
That's why. Yeah, come on, come on, guys as well.
Speaker 4 (27:18):
Call him gay in a disparaging way all the time.
Speaker 6 (27:20):
I don't actually do it in a loving way.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Okay, I.
Speaker 6 (27:26):
Called him.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
He didn't say no, I'm not. He just said I'm not.
Speaker 6 (27:30):
Don't don't defend things like that.
Speaker 7 (27:32):
What's the point okay, but also about Don Lemont, I
would be more concerned about the Department of Justice, you know,
threatening me with charges than I would anything.
Speaker 27 (27:41):
Nicki Minaj got to say, Well, he said yesterday on
his live stream when he reacted to the Department of Justice,
that he is fine because he was not there.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
As a protester, and he made it very clear.
Speaker 27 (27:50):
He did say that a lot on the actual church
live stream, that he was just there as a journalist,
which it is in his right, he says, for him
to be able to be there as a journalist and
be covering it.
Speaker 7 (27:59):
I just went, you see the Assistant Attorney General, you know,
threaten you with charges.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
So you want to scare record, are you not?
Speaker 6 (28:06):
I would be, yeah, I'd be I'd be more focused
on that than I would anything.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Like Don said, what about all the other journalists?
Speaker 27 (28:11):
You know what's crazy too. I know we got to
wrap up, but I was thinking about this yesterday. Don
Lemon at CNN like of course he had people always
coming for him, and you know he wasn't everybody's favorite,
but him on his live stream, I feel.
Speaker 7 (28:21):
Like he I remember when they used to treat Don
Lemon the way they treating steven A Smith.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
No, oh, like he hates all.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
When they used to call him Uncle Tom and coohon.
I remember that.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Yeah, when he was in Ferguson he was like, blat
me marijuana when he was holding up the N words
be shign on CNN.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
That's what I remember that vividly.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 27 (28:37):
But I just feel like now the conversations around him
are like, I mean, they're just as big, or it
got bigger because he's on his own. He's able to
do what he wants to do. But it's just a
different conversation. I'm thinking about that yesterday, like how media
has changed so much because he's there on his own
live stream just on YouTube and he's making national news
and making the DJ sit down and tweet and have
these conversations.
Speaker 6 (28:56):
So that's not the conversations I want him to be.
Speaker 7 (28:58):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (29:00):
Scary Well, that is the latest with Laura. Now when
we come back, we got front page news, so don't
go anywhere.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
It's the breakfast Club. Good morning morning everybody.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
It's DJ MV Jess hilarious. Schela mean the guy we
are the breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news.
So the Sports College Championship game last night.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Salu to Indiana. They beat Miami twenty seven.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Twenty one Indiana season was undefeated with sixteen and oh
so salute to Indiana and also salute to Miami out
there now. Also the NBA, they announced the All Star
starters for the twenty twenty sixth game and Lebron out
for the first time in twenty two years. Lebron is
not a starter, so Yanni's Jalen Kate Cunningham, Tyree, Jalen Brown,
(29:42):
the Joker, Luca Shy, Steph Curry, and Victor Webbayama are
all the starters.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
And quickly mister first fourteen games, why he was hurt?

Speaker 1 (29:55):
Now. Also NFL, the Rams beat the Bears twenty seventeen,
Patriots beat the Texas twenty.
Speaker 5 (29:59):
Eight sixteen, Debroncles beat the Bills thirty three thirty, and
the Seahawks beat the forty nine is forty one two six.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
What's that me?
Speaker 8 (30:06):
Me?
Speaker 4 (30:06):
Good morning?
Speaker 15 (30:07):
MV josh Alea Maain, how y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 14 (30:09):
Good morning?
Speaker 15 (30:10):
So we're following growing tensions between the US and Europe
this morning, sparked by President Trump's renewed push to take
control of Greenland. So, in a text sent over the
weekend to Norway's Prime minister, President Trump wrote that he
is no longer feels he does no longer feel obligated
to think purely of peace, so, writing in part, considering
your country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace
(30:33):
Prize for having stopped eight years of war, plus, I
no longer feel an obligation to purely think of peace,
adding that he will now do what he believes in
the best interests of the United States.
Speaker 17 (30:44):
Now.
Speaker 15 (30:45):
That message came after Norway's Prime minister reach out urging
de escalation. The administration that was pushing back on the
idea that this dispute is about the Nobel Peace Prize.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen says the president's focus on Greenland
is about national security, not personal grievance.
Speaker 4 (31:02):
Let's listen to what you have to say.
Speaker 12 (31:03):
Yeah, and I think it's complete canard that the President
will be doing this because of a Nobel prize. The
President is looking at Greenland as a strategic asset for
the United States. We are not going to outsource our
hemispheric security to anyone else.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
Well.
Speaker 15 (31:19):
Trump is also threatening tariffs, warning that as of February first,
the US could impose a ten percent tariff on Denmark
and other European countries, including Germany and France unless Greenland
is sold now, with those tariffs escalating to as much
as twenty five percent in June if there's still no
deal now, Denmark and its allies they've been spending small
military forces to Greenland in response, and that pressure has
(31:42):
also sparked protests, with thousands marching in Denmark over the weekend,
and European leaders warned that the standoff it risks further
straining NATO, and now they are scrambling to meet with
President Trump tomorrow in Switzerland to try and calm the situation.
Speaker 7 (31:58):
So yeah, I'm the irony and in the Nobel Peace
Prize and then declaring war, you're proving them right exactly
why you.
Speaker 6 (32:04):
Don't deserve the goddamn Nobel Peace Pride.
Speaker 7 (32:07):
And also too when he says that, what do you
say about Greenland? It's a national What do he says
national security?
Speaker 6 (32:11):
What do you say he.
Speaker 15 (32:11):
Said it's a national Were you talking about Secretary Scott
Vessett or.
Speaker 6 (32:16):
No, you said Trump?
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Trump wants Greenland as a matter of national security.
Speaker 14 (32:19):
As a matter of national security, Yes, but wouldn't.
Speaker 7 (32:22):
Going into Greenland threatened the national security of the United States.
Speaker 14 (32:25):
Yes, it would be, but.
Speaker 7 (32:27):
It would make that it would make our allies turn
into our adversaries.
Speaker 15 (32:30):
It absolutely would.
Speaker 14 (32:32):
It would.
Speaker 15 (32:32):
It would set off another war literally, right, so we've
we've got the.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Threat of a global war.
Speaker 15 (32:37):
We have a civil war happening here within the United States,
and we're talking about the Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 7 (32:42):
It would it would bring our unity with NATO. Like son,
I don't I don't understand the logic. But once again,
I don't know why we keep trying to make logic
out of elogical things like.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
Greenland only has fifty six thousand people as population, so
it's not even it's not a huge place.
Speaker 6 (32:57):
I hear stuff like this, all I think to myself,
what is in those Stein files.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
What those Steam files that makes him react like this
and cause these type of discrations.
Speaker 14 (33:07):
Absolutely?
Speaker 15 (33:08):
Absolutely, And finally, y'all, if your Instagram we're switching gears
a little bit. So finally, if your Instagram feed suddenly
looks like it did ten years ago, you are not
imagining it twenty sixteen. They are having a moment a
social media analysts say people from across different platforms are
(33:28):
posting throwback photos of what many say are now twenty
sixteen was an iconic Internet error. So users are digging
through old camera rolls, snapchat filters and standing and what's
standing out isn't just how people looked, is how similar
the energy feels. So no matter what you were, what
you wore, or where you lived, people are saying the
energy from twenty sixteen it feels fresh, it feels new,
(33:51):
and it doesn't feel as heavy as it does right now.
So researchers who study digital culture say twenty sixteen it
represents a different phase of the Internet too, So before
the endless scrolling, before algorithms dominated the feed, and before
posting felt performative, they say. Back then, people were largely
just sharing content with friends in their community, not chasing
engagement or brand deals, and say they also say, you know,
(34:13):
life felt lighter, social media felt fun, and for many
it was before the pandemic, before that constant news cycle,
and before the Internet started feeling heavy and exhausted.
Speaker 4 (34:22):
Have y'all noticed or have you.
Speaker 15 (34:24):
Posted some photos from twenty sixteen as well?
Speaker 14 (34:26):
Have you jumped on the trend.
Speaker 6 (34:27):
I definitely did.
Speaker 7 (34:28):
Twenty sixteen was a very great year, you know, twenty sixteen,
that's the year I started going to therapy. It made
a lot of good, like, you know, lifestyle changes, and
really asked God for some direction that God definitely gave
to me. But also to that point, twenty sixteen was
like the beginning of all of this because that was
the year that Trump and Hillary ran against each other
and Trump won his first turn.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Yeah, that's very true.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
That's very very true.
Speaker 15 (34:53):
What about you, Jess, have you been noticing on your
feed the twenty sixteen trend happening?
Speaker 31 (34:57):
No?
Speaker 10 (34:58):
I had people talking about it though, but now I
haven't participated or seen much of it.
Speaker 5 (35:03):
Yeah, I seen it all over the feet. I just
didn't jump into it. I had a time to look. Yeah,
I jump into it. But yeah, it was a great year.
Speaker 6 (35:11):
Yeah nice. I mean I've had a great decade. Just
to be honest with you, my life is amazing. I
don't know to tell you that's great.
Speaker 7 (35:16):
I mean, bigger year, bigger Yeah, you know what I mean.
I just you know, twenty thirty six. I hope we're
still here to look back at the last decade as well.
To be honest with you.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
My kids are good. I'm good. I saw.
Speaker 6 (35:30):
That's what I'm saying, Like.
Speaker 7 (35:31):
Life is great, you know, and I guess what, you
know what it also reminds you of like man, no
matter what you know, God always has a bigger picture.
And we're gonna we're gonna be all right, Like we're
going to be okay and.
Speaker 6 (35:46):
We're not, then that's God will too, right.
Speaker 10 (35:48):
And what you also noticed is like in twenty sixteen
you well maybe not y'all, but like you know how
me and me, like you will be complaining about something
and you'll look around be like, why is this happening?
Speaker 1 (35:58):
On this happening? And then ten years lady, you'd be like, yeah,
I wasn't that bit because that's what.
Speaker 7 (36:03):
I mean exactly exactly. You can take what you just
said to me. You can see why it happened. Like
every single moment in your life plays it plays a role.
It's all just part of this beautiful process that we
live that has us right where we need to be today.
Speaker 15 (36:18):
Sure very well said, all right, y'all. Well that is

Speaker 1 (36:29):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (36:31):
Now, let's open up the phone lines. Eight hundred five
eight five one oh five one. I was talking behind
the scenes. I seen a headline. It said comedian Ryan.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Davis says that his daughter's love became transactional and it
broke them. He said, I lost it, and I was like, damn,
you messed up. When you know if your daughter just
calls you nothing for money? And then Charlamayne said's something
that I.
Speaker 5 (36:49):
Did not know because you didn't listen to the interview. No,
I just said headline just like eleven. It's only eleven.
Speaker 7 (36:55):
I heard it play the clip because I thought he
said the daughter was like ten or eleven years old.
Speaker 32 (37:00):
I have an eight year old son and ten year
old daughters. About turn Leaven. My daughter went from I
love my dad.
Speaker 6 (37:08):
To let me see what I can get out of here.
Speaker 25 (37:10):
And when she started looking at me as access to
material things.
Speaker 18 (37:16):
You're ATM.
Speaker 6 (37:17):
All of a sudden, you are dad, You're an ATM.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Broke me.
Speaker 32 (37:20):
Bug me because it was like, I only want.
Speaker 25 (37:22):
To be around him if I can get something out
of him.
Speaker 32 (37:25):
So I'm gonna ask you this.
Speaker 18 (37:26):
Did you have that?
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Did you sit down and have a conversation, how did
you how did you come to this realization that it
was Yes, this is my child, but my child only
wants to be around me because of what the access
that she has to things, personal jewelry, clothes, makeup, whatever
the case may be.
Speaker 25 (37:43):
To watch that daddy's girl go from I just want
to be around him. I just want to touch him.
I just want to sleep on him, be cutled up
to him to if he ain't mind me nothing, I really.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Ain't trying to go.
Speaker 7 (37:55):
I'm like, at that's what they posted. Yeah, they being transactional.
It's just kids, Like I don't even think they understand
the concept of transactional meaning. Like I give you a
perfect example, my daughter wanted to go to a party,
but she didn't do her homework this weekend, so she
couldn't go to the party yesterday, and she.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
Was very upset about that.
Speaker 7 (38:15):
But no, you got to teach them the consequence of
their actions, Like you know, you you you don't get
rewarded correct when you don't do the right thing right.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
But I also feel like I don't know what his
relationship is with his kids.
Speaker 5 (38:27):
If they live with him or not. But I always
say with kids, time matters over everything. Time matters over
over presence. It doesn't matter. You got to be there
in your child's life so your child can understand you.
If you're not, They know you were the breadwinner. Hey, dad,
can I have some money for some stick?
Speaker 6 (38:42):
Dad?
Speaker 11 (38:42):
Can I have that?
Speaker 3 (38:43):
Guy?
Speaker 10 (38:44):
He wouldn't like my son at all. My son asks
for everything he went. And you wouldn't let her go
to a martle yuther King birthday.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
Party, No, because she didn't do her homework birthday party.
Speaker 6 (38:55):
It was not a martinlu King junior birthday party.
Speaker 7 (38:58):
Kid in her class's birthday, your homework wasn't done.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
Just like kids. We all got to teach kids responsibility
in the early age.
Speaker 7 (39:05):
If the room not clean, if your homework not done,
you don't get rewarded, period. And you got to teach
him that. So I don't even understand what he means
when he says his daughter's transactional.
Speaker 5 (39:16):
She don't even understand that that life here. Let's open
up the phone line, take your thoughts. Eight hundred and
five eight five.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
One oh five one is the breakfast club, gome morning.
Speaker 6 (39:27):
It's topic time.
Speaker 21 (39:29):
Eight hundred and five eight five one five one to
join it to the discussion with the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 5 (39:35):
Warning everybody, it's DJ Envy, just hilarious, Charlamage the gud
We are the Breakfast Club. If he's just joining us.
We're talking about comedian Ryan Davis. He's been a pair
a bunch of times. He was on the infy guy
Shannon Sharp, and he was talking about his daughter and
how he feels like his love between him and his
daughter became transactional.
Speaker 32 (39:53):
Let's listen, I have an eight year old son and
ten year old daughters. Is about the turn whether my
daughter went from I love my dad to let.
Speaker 6 (40:03):
Me see what I can get out of here.
Speaker 25 (40:04):
And when she started looking at me as access to
like material.
Speaker 24 (40:09):
Things, you're ATM.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
All of a sudden, you are dad, You're an ATM.
Speaker 32 (40:13):
Broke me, broke me because it was like, I only
want to be around.
Speaker 6 (40:17):
Him if I can get something matter of him.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
How did you come to this realization, Yes, this is
my child, but my child only wants to be around
me because of what the access that she has to
things perfume, jewelry, clothes, makeup, whatever the case may be.
To watch that daddy's girl. Go from I just want
to be around him. I just want to touch him.
Speaker 25 (40:37):
I just want to sleep on him, be colored up
to him to if he ain't buying me nothing, I
really ain't trying to go.
Speaker 5 (40:44):
So let's open up the four lines eight hundred and
five eight five one five one. The start with you
just what you think.
Speaker 10 (40:49):
I didn't know that she was, you know, ten to eleven.
But you know what, I honestly feel like he sounds hurt.
This is coming from a hurt place for real. And
although that's what are gonna do at that age, you know,
especially if they know they have they're fortunate, you know,
and they have the means, you know, their parents have
the means to get them whatever, or one of their
parents or whatever. But I think because if you listen
(41:12):
a little further, he actually kind of contradicts itself a
little bit later into it. But I feel like somehow
along the way, you know, him and his baby mother
just wasn't they couldn't get on the same page as
far as cole parents, and and I feel like he
may feel like his mother, I mean, the mother of
his child, maybe turning the child again some not you
know what I'm saying, like, and so he just saying
(41:34):
he ain't find a good way to co parent yet,
Like him and the mother got some other things to
work out, you know.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
And I feel like strickling down to their child.
Speaker 10 (41:42):
Yeah, strickling down to the child, you know, because although
she is young, she is old enough to hear if
mom is saying this or if you know, you know. So,
I just feel like it's he feels like it's some
type of influence from the mother to the child or whatever,
and so he's mad at not mad, but I guess
irritated with the child matter some type of way, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (42:00):
But I would say with any with any relationship with
any child, especially at that age, I think time is
the most important thing right and present because they can
understand and feel. But you know, it's it's we heard
all the time. I feel like I'm eighteen with my kids.
But at ten years old, eleven years old, your kids
want things like your pops.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
I want these new kids. They pops.
Speaker 5 (42:18):
I need cleats and if pops basketball, he pops and
the roadblocks it pops need a.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
Jacket, it pops.
Speaker 29 (42:24):
That's just the way kids are and to be honest,
whether you got it or not, your kids are like
that because I didn't always have it when Ash was
growing up, when he was younger, I wasn't.
Speaker 10 (42:32):
Always you know, rolling the dough like now, you know
what I mean. But the kids get to age where
they wanted, whether you.
Speaker 1 (42:37):
Got it or not.
Speaker 10 (42:38):
So whether Ryan was Ryan Davis the comedian or regular
Ryan around the way, she was going to be like that.
Speaker 5 (42:44):
Anyway, the more you say yes, the more the kids
gonna ask, because yeah, I asked my parents for everything,
and a lot of times it said no, and it
was just it in and you get mad at for
a little bit, but then you'd be like, what it
is dad?
Speaker 1 (42:55):
No?
Speaker 7 (42:58):
Yeah, I need Ryan to found on transactional because when
you are a parent of a ten year old, everything
is quote unquote transactional, but not in the way he
was explaining it though. Ten years old, that's the age
where you are teaching kids about actions and consequences, responsibility,
understanding rules. As y'all both say, kids want everything and
(43:19):
they expect you to get it for them. Okay, they
are watching YouTube, they're watching TV. There's all these ads
being pressed to him constantly. Kids are always asking for
things but guess what, it's up to us as parents
to tell them. No, it's up to us to teach
them consequences and responsibility and to let them know these
things are luxuries not rights.
Speaker 6 (43:38):
Okay, these are treats and rewards.
Speaker 7 (43:40):
And guess what, you don't get these things if your
choice aren't done that's right, if your schoolwork isn't done,
if you was being nasty and got an attitude. So
I really don't understand the context of Ryan's conversation because
that's not the way he explained transactional. Also, I got
four girls seventeen, ten, seven and four. Uh at ten,
(44:01):
they get to that age, Well, it's not about you anymore, daddy, Okay.
They are seeking their own independence. They don't want to
be up under you having daddy daughter cuddle time.
Speaker 6 (44:10):
Okay, but that has nothing to do with you, and
everything to do with hormones.
Speaker 1 (44:14):
Yes, and my daughter, I think like two weeks ago,
I was holding her hand walking on school and she kind.
Speaker 5 (44:20):
Of yeah, and I was like, hey, she was like,
I'm just fixing my.
Speaker 1 (44:26):
I was like, Charlamage says, she's finding her independence, you know.
Speaker 6 (44:30):
But he's but that he only got one daughter, so
he hasn't gone through any.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
Of this this yet, but and his son is younger,
so he yeah, hello.
Speaker 4 (44:38):
Who's this all right?
Speaker 9 (44:39):
This issy?
Speaker 1 (44:41):
What's your thoughts? Mama morning, Good morning.
Speaker 33 (44:44):
My thoughts is that's backwards thinking. My daughter's father went
to vision while I was pregnant with her, and he
did seventeen years. He came home and she would reach
out to him from time to time for like gas
money or a couple of dollars, and he just flat
out and told her, don't call me anymore because every
time you call me, you just want money. So of course,
(45:06):
mama bear, I step in and I'm like, well, for
seventeen years, she couldn't even call you or see you,
so why would it matter what she's calling for. I
just feel that it's the adult responsibility to reach out
to the child that if the choud is everything out accepted.
So what what's twenty dollars for gas? You did seventeen
years in prison?
Speaker 7 (45:27):
He also it was a huge year between seventeen and ten. Man,
I got ten every two.
Speaker 23 (45:32):
Still a child and she's still a child.
Speaker 7 (45:35):
I don't care how it's still a child.
Speaker 1 (45:36):
Yeah, I'm a child. She's still a child.
Speaker 23 (45:39):
You didn't buy the car, you didn't pay the insurance,
pay for insurance.
Speaker 5 (45:42):
And she's not asking for a crib ball car. She
said some gas.
Speaker 33 (45:46):
Still school, right, she's a high school teenager. So I
think that that's just asked backwards thinking.
Speaker 7 (45:53):
And your daughter probably don't know how to have a
conversation with her.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
With him, Yeah, he's been called years. Yeah, hello's was that?
Speaker 18 (46:01):
This is our mister showman and rosell New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (46:04):
Mister brother? What's your thoughts? Brother?
Speaker 18 (46:07):
What's every New Year's y'all?
Speaker 26 (46:08):
Man?
Speaker 6 (46:08):
Love, y'all.
Speaker 11 (46:12):
Listen? Why why aren't this dude on the Sandy Sharp
Show calling out his sting or eleven year old baby?
Speaker 18 (46:20):
At that age, kids wanted to begin to separate and
find their own identity.
Speaker 11 (46:26):
That doesn't matter.
Speaker 18 (46:28):
I mean if you live with them or what you're
doing for them, that's what kids do. They don't want
to be if I love Mama and daddy as kids.
Speaker 23 (46:34):
And prete but when they baby.
Speaker 1 (46:37):
That's what they do.
Speaker 26 (46:38):
Like like, what is going on in the world?
Speaker 8 (46:40):
Was Oh man, it foke me because all she wanted
to do.
Speaker 18 (46:44):
Was be packed and that could be a phase she's
going through. She could be up under him. Again next
month or you know, two months later.
Speaker 24 (46:51):
She's just being a kid.
Speaker 9 (46:53):
But he had on a platform calling calling out his
eleven year old baby because all she's like.
Speaker 1 (47:00):
Like, I don't know, I don't get it.
Speaker 18 (47:02):
I don't get it.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Thank you so taking your calls. We got Brian on theline. Brian,
good morning, good morning. How you'll doing I'm doing?
Speaker 6 (47:09):
Talk to us?
Speaker 1 (47:10):
What's your thoughts?
Speaker 30 (47:11):
Uh? From a friend of stand Yeah, I said a
little bit of immaturity as a parent. I think he
got a little bit more growing up to do as
a father, even though his kids might be a little
bit older. I think his role might be different. And
I think his dad about type of superpower too. Now
that you know, life is a little bit different for him,
it's different.
Speaker 17 (47:29):
For her too.
Speaker 30 (47:30):
So you know, kid's gonna do what they're gonna do.
Speaker 1 (47:34):
Yeah, okay, thank you brother.
Speaker 30 (47:36):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (47:36):
Hello, who's this Andrea?
Speaker 29 (47:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 23 (47:41):
So I was calling just to spread the word around
about the two p m nationwide walkout, and you're gonna
walk out or wherever you are and then walk into
your local how to representatives and demand impeachment of Donald Trump.
Speaker 7 (47:57):
Oh I didn't hear about that. That's what's up when
that's happening today today?
Speaker 23 (48:01):
Yes, it's January the twentie is. And the reason they're
doing it today.
Speaker 18 (48:05):
Is because so that was Donald Trump's inauguration.
Speaker 1 (48:08):
Day, so we could just walk out our job right
now two o'clock.
Speaker 18 (48:13):
PM.
Speaker 6 (48:15):
I didn't know about that. Thank you for letting us know.
Speaker 1 (48:16):
Happy to know. I thought, hello, was this money? Good morning?
Talked to us money?
Speaker 23 (48:24):
Good morning?
Speaker 16 (48:25):
Yeah, these children are a different breed. But I also
remember being like my son is keen. I remember being
his age and I didn't want to go over my
grandma house unless I was on punishment because.
Speaker 23 (48:35):
I knew I could get whatever I want it.
Speaker 9 (48:37):
But my son, he doesn't go.
Speaker 16 (48:39):
To Target with me unless he knows he's getting McDonald's
or he can brow the toy aisle for his birthday
next year.
Speaker 6 (48:46):
Yeah, but why, that's not how kids have always been.
Speaker 7 (48:51):
Yeah, that's not transactional, that's being a kid exactly.
Speaker 31 (48:56):
So yeah, well he's saying that's a little crazy.
Speaker 23 (48:58):
Now, if she was like nineteen twenty or you know.
Speaker 18 (49:02):
An adult, now you got an issue. She's using you.
Speaker 33 (49:05):
But she's a child.
Speaker 16 (49:07):
There to provide for her and give her all these
things you've been doing already.
Speaker 23 (49:12):
Stop spoiling the kids.
Speaker 18 (49:13):
We can't help it.
Speaker 23 (49:14):
We always want to give.
Speaker 31 (49:15):
Every all the kids what we didn't have.
Speaker 18 (49:17):
Or okay, why are they honking at me?
Speaker 10 (49:19):
I'm sorry, you must be fine.
Speaker 16 (49:22):
And then I'm actually stopped. I'm trying to get to
the worst parking line. I might have to be late,
but that's not that's neither here nor there. But I
messed around and told this little boy how much I
made an hour, so now he thinks I'm rich.
Speaker 1 (49:35):
I am.
Speaker 7 (49:37):
It's up to us as parents to teach kids about
consequences and responsibility, and we have to let them know
that these things are luxuries and not rights. And if
you don't do what you're supposed to do, you charge
your homework, have a good attitude, you ain't gonna get
rewarded with these things.
Speaker 10 (49:52):
I love this, Oh my goodness, all right, so.
Speaker 18 (49:58):
My baby for it to and that is my will.
I would never think that it's transactional.
Speaker 1 (50:07):
I'm a mom.
Speaker 18 (50:07):
I love me in mom anyway. Shout out to my
mam ma. My mama is amazing.
Speaker 23 (50:12):
I love y'all.
Speaker 18 (50:12):
I've been listening to se y'all for all the Oh
my gouys.
Speaker 23 (50:16):
I was excited.
Speaker 6 (50:18):
Hate that your destiny.
Speaker 7 (50:19):
I know you did not fight to get through to
give us that little mediocre little that that that was.
Speaker 9 (50:25):
Just I'm nerving.
Speaker 6 (50:28):
She nervous. Ya, that's it. That's all you have. My baby.
Speaker 7 (50:34):
I spoiled my baby. My mama spoiled me. You don't
just do. You don't just do things for your daughter.
Your daughter has to earn.
Speaker 9 (50:39):
No no no no no no no no no no, absolutely
not my baby, no, no no.
Speaker 18 (50:43):
I don't put it radio. I don't put it well,
ibslutely not. You know, you don't do you don't handle
your business. You don't get this.
Speaker 9 (50:50):
Just goes to the game another day with them graades
looking like baby.
Speaker 6 (50:53):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (50:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (50:55):
And that's what Ryan didn't explain, like you got it.
Speaker 7 (50:58):
You can't just say kids are trans the way he explained,
it sounds that like y'all thought the kids older, Yeah,
thought the kids.
Speaker 11 (51:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (51:04):
When you were talking about earlier, I thought that he
had an older kid.
Speaker 10 (51:07):
I was gonna say, damn Ryan in his late thirties,
mid thirties, how well we got a older kid. But
you know what I do want to say is I
hope he talks to her about it too, because she
is going to see that, you know what I'm saying.
And like mister show, when he said, uh, it looks
like he is calling her out, Like you know what
I'm saying, But you really talking about her mother?
Speaker 6 (51:28):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 10 (51:29):
But you're calling out your child. She only ten or eleven.
I hope he talks to her because she got to
see this too, Like damn, y'all was only ten eleven
and you you calling me out on the show.
Speaker 1 (51:37):
You mean, so, Floyd, what's up? Floyd talked to us?
Speaker 30 (51:40):
What is going on?
Speaker 6 (51:41):
Beautiful people?
Speaker 18 (51:43):
I say good morning to you guys. Listen.
Speaker 26 (51:46):
You know I held that Charlamagne. And theoretically, you're right.
We want to raise kids the way we.
Speaker 6 (51:53):
Were taught to be raised.
Speaker 18 (51:54):
These kids are like sponges.
Speaker 26 (51:56):
Now they're entitled to uh information at a quicker pace
than we were. They use what they had, They absorb everything,
and they use it to their advantage. We look at
like this situation with fifty cent and his son. His
son was entitled by his mother to want want fifty
(52:17):
is trying to teach him like you don't need it.
We get to a point now where everything that our
children see, they want, they want to have, they want
to utilize. Cut your son's Wi Fi off, your daughter's
wife file off and watch it go crazy.
Speaker 6 (52:31):
Yeah, but because I think that provided that for her. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (52:34):
But I think the difference is, you know, uh fifty,
explain to us how his son was being coached by
the mom, and Ryan would have said, like, the mom
is coaching the daughter to be transactional. That's different just
to say your kid's are transactional. No, And by the way,
there's everything is quote unquote transactional when you're dealing with
a child.
Speaker 1 (52:54):
But I also disagree with this, this gentleman just said.
And the reason I disagree is also how you raise
your kids.
Speaker 5 (52:59):
Right They my kids outside of the baby, because the
baby don't respect nothing right now, especially right now she
gets everything she wants. But outside of the baby, they
respect and they understand when dad or mom says no,
because we've taught them the same thing with the They
don't care about the If I.
Speaker 1 (53:14):
Say no, we have no Wi Fi, they no, there's
no Wi Fi. It is what it is.
Speaker 5 (53:19):
But that's that's because they were taught, They were disciplined.
They understand that things just don't come just because it's free.
Speaker 1 (53:25):
No, you have to earn.
Speaker 5 (53:26):
Things have to be earned to be and when you
do get it, you have to respect it and appreciate it.
Speaker 6 (53:31):
Outside of the baby.
Speaker 1 (53:32):
The baby right now, what is?
Speaker 7 (53:35):
And I disagree with that, brother, because kids are influenced
to want things because they're always being advertised that they're
on YouTube, if they're watching TV like you know.
Speaker 1 (53:45):
They're see their friends.
Speaker 7 (53:48):
Yes, there's always ads being pushed in and close.
Speaker 6 (53:51):
They don't care.
Speaker 9 (53:51):
It's food.
Speaker 6 (53:52):
I don't care if it's toys.
Speaker 7 (53:53):
They're always asking for things their kids, and it's up
to us as parents to be like, no, those are luxuries.
Speaker 1 (54:00):
Correct, not rights. Correct.
Speaker 6 (54:02):
So you do the right.
Speaker 7 (54:02):
Thing, meaning your chores, your homework and grades are good,
you you've got a great attitude.
Speaker 6 (54:08):
Then you'll get rewarded with your perfect example.
Speaker 1 (54:10):
You know what the little Stanley Muggs that came out
a couple years ago.
Speaker 5 (54:13):
There, every kid wanted this dumbest thing ever, right because
it got a straw and it could spill over, right,
but every kid wanted it.
Speaker 1 (54:18):
Now they got a new one.
Speaker 29 (54:20):
Why whatever it is now.
Speaker 1 (54:22):
The kids want this one. It's crazy.
Speaker 5 (54:23):
It's these marketing schemes to these kids. Ye all right,
Well when we come back, we got the latest with
Lawrence who don't go anywhere.
Speaker 1 (54:30):
It's the breakfast Club in the morning.
Speaker 6 (54:32):
You'll talk llll cool back.

jealousy and pure envy because they are a great franchise.
And the reality of the situation is that was Cowboy
is an America's team, right. But if we were really
being honest, the Patriots would have to be an America's team
because there's.
Speaker 6 (56:46):
Such a winning franchise.
Speaker 1 (56:48):
The Patriots is so good, so long years. They had
six bad years, yeah, but then they came right back.
Speaker 6 (56:54):
Now it is a long time. How many years?
Speaker 1 (56:56):
The Dallas Cowboy has bad way too long, losing way
too long.
Speaker 7 (57:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (57:02):
And the Giants, well, you know, the Giants got to
the Super Bowls and y'all beat the Patriots twice.
Speaker 6 (57:08):
You know that's big.
Speaker 27 (57:09):
Yeah, So if they make it to the super Bowl,
that'll be February eighth, and Cardi B starts her Little
Miss Drama tour on February eleventh, so hopefully she'll be
able to make it to see Bay play crazy.
Speaker 1 (57:21):
In the Super Bowl. And then she pops out with
Bad But what because.
Speaker 27 (57:25):
Yeah, Bad Bunny credits her for, you know, helping his
career a lot, So that could be a thing that'll
be crazy.
Speaker 11 (57:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (57:32):
Wow, I think it's.
Speaker 27 (57:33):
Just because of, you know, the space that Cardi B
took up when she started doing like the international music.
But there's a moment where he brought card to be
out on stage and think to it, this was like
some years ago. I was just watching it over the
weekend because I saw that Bad Bunny's a trailer for
the super Bowl, like broke numbers, like viewership.
Speaker 1 (57:47):
Numbers or something like that.
Speaker 7 (57:49):
Yeah, I'm playing for the super Bowl. Know they do,
but you just know they do. Donald Trump is not
going to be upstairs by no Bad Bunny on February eight.
Speaker 4 (58:00):
No, I got at to say, I like it.
Speaker 1 (58:03):
A biggest record, one of the biggest records.
Speaker 25 (58:05):
Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 1 (58:07):
Hopefully we get to see that well.
Speaker 27 (58:08):
Speaking of other music news, over the weekend, Ludacris was
on a festival and then not on a festival because
people were upset. So I confirmed that Ludacris has pulled
out of Kid Rocks Country Music Festival. Now, this festival,
there was a full lineup of people, including Nelly, a
bunch of different country music artists. The festival is called
(58:28):
Rock the Country Celebration of two hundred and fifty years
of Freedom. Now, a lot of people feel like, because
it's a festival associated with Kare Rock, that this is
a Maga based festival and they were upset to see
Ludacris and Nelly on the lineup. This is not Nelly's
first time participating in the festival though, But I did
confirm that Ludacris because his name was taken off the
flyer after it was announced and people were like, wait,
(58:50):
so does this mean he's not on it? I confirmed
that he's not on it. But there was a statement
that was given by a wreck for Ludacris that said
that this was a mix mix up, lines got crossed.
Speaker 4 (58:59):
He was never supposed to be on the lineup.
Speaker 6 (59:01):
What makes it a maga festival?
Speaker 4 (59:03):
I think people just associated with that because of Kid Rock.
Speaker 1 (59:05):
Is a kid festival?
Speaker 27 (59:07):
Yeah so yeah, no, Kid Rock is one of the headliners,
but yeah, it's his country.
Speaker 4 (59:11):
It's Kid Rocks Country Music Festival.
Speaker 6 (59:13):
So it's called Kids Country.
Speaker 27 (59:15):
No, it's called Rock the Country, but it's Kid Rocks
Country Music Festival. So you have Kid Rock, Jason Alden,
Blake Shelton, Jelly Roll. Uh, there's a ton of people
in this festival.
Speaker 1 (59:25):
Every years, like it's just Kid Rocks.
Speaker 27 (59:28):
It's Kid Rocks Festival. From what I'm reading was said,
it's called you Love Going Back. We're not doing this today. So, yes,
he's not on the festival anymore, so I guess people
can calm down.
Speaker 1 (59:38):
Yes, So it was a mistake that he was even
going in.
Speaker 27 (59:41):
From what the Red has told Rolling Stone, Yes there
was a mix up. He wasn't supposed to be listening.
Speaker 10 (59:45):
Mostly don't even go with the lineup, but Nelly would
because you know he got country hits.
Speaker 1 (59:49):
So this festival before.
Speaker 27 (59:52):
Yeah, he did it in their inaugural year which yeah,
so got you.
Speaker 4 (59:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 27 (59:57):
Now and more news, Uh, Jervonte Tank Davis has been
stripped of his title.
Speaker 4 (01:00:03):
He is no longer a boxing world champion.
Speaker 6 (01:00:06):

the rust Warner warn't down in Miami Gardens for his
arrest over that domestic violence charge in those allegations with
the woman at the Strip club. Now, he has not
turned himself in that I know of. I've been kind
of checking in every day to see what the plans were.
No update there as of yet.

biggest streaming days ever for track Queen.
Speaker 4 (01:00:40):
Over the weekends. Yes, And when I head.
Speaker 27 (01:00:44):
Up his team and I was like, do y'all think
that this is because everybody was doing that twenty sixteen
challenge because the song was so big in twenty fifteen
twenty sixteen, Like.
Speaker 10 (01:00:51):
I feel like everybody has just been like waiting for
him to come on you like I'm racing.
Speaker 1 (01:00:55):
That's like, that's what.
Speaker 27 (01:00:57):
That's what they said that he attributed to just him
coming home. But he was performing over the weekend at Lotus.
He's back on stage already. He did Lotus and Jersey,
then he did Harbor, a club here in New York.
And I have some audio from him at Lotus because
you can hear him actually singing and the voice is
still voicing. Let's take a listen to Fetti.
Speaker 13 (01:01:11):

Speaker 27 (01:01:40):
Yeah, so people were excited to hear him on stage
and that that video went crazy viral.

So shout out to Fetti Rock.
Speaker 27 (01:01:46):
And in the next hour, we will be talking about

Speaker 27 (01:01:52):
Blige says that she has an unreleased song with jay
Z that didn't come out because jay Z felt disrespected.
Speaker 4 (01:01:56):
So we're gonna get into it.
Speaker 5 (01:01:58):
Okay, all right, well, Charlamne, were getting that down, get you,
you know, fly after the hour.
Speaker 7 (01:02:01):
I'm conflicted, man, you know, because because sometimes people come
to me with Donkey of Today's suggestions and then I
see it and I'm like, I kind of see where
they ain't coming from. But I can see both sides
in this situation. So I want to open it up
for Breakfast Club Court and I'm a lay the case
out for y'all, and then we're gonna open up the
phone lines and decide who should get donkey today.
Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
All right, we'll get to that next. We got cute up.
All right, it's the breakfast luf, good morning, Donkey up today?
By damn he hogged.
Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
It's time for donkey, I mean, trying to be donkey today.
Speaker 29 (01:02:35):
No more.
Speaker 6 (01:02:35):
They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
not making these people do these days called donkey of
the day.
Speaker 1 (01:02:40):
And it really caught me off guard.
Speaker 10 (01:02:43):
Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of the day today?
Speaker 7 (01:02:47):
Well, just hilarious donkey to day for Tuesday, January twentieth.
Speaker 6 (01:02:50):
Has me very conflicted. Okay. Every now and then I
get a suggestion for Donkey of to Day, And.
Speaker 7 (01:02:54):
I'm like, I can see why you would want them
to get Donkey of to Day, but honestly I can
see why they shouldn't. Okay, we are gonna have to
take this one to Breakfast Club Court because I really
don't know if these folk should get the biggest he haul.
But today's potential donkey today is going to uh lukas Rakowski.
He's the owner of the Crystal Ballroom in Lake Mary, Florida. Now,
(01:03:15):
according to New six Orlando, ty Hinson and William Coney
was set to marry in May of this year at
the Crystal Ballroom and then sadly tragedy struck.
Speaker 6 (01:03:24):
Let's go to New six Orlando for the report.
Speaker 36 (01:03:26):
Police Crystal Ballroom here in Lake Mary is where ty
Hinson thought she'd be marrying her best friend this coming
spring when her fiance, William Coney, suddenly died just before Thanksgiving.
Henson says her wedding vendors voided all of their contracts
and gave back her money all, she says, except this one.
Speaker 18 (01:03:46):
This was like a cancelation.
Speaker 4 (01:03:47):
This was a person dying.
Speaker 35 (01:03:49):
Henson acknowledges she signed a non refundable contract with the
Crystal Ballroom of Lake mary Still, she assumed the company
would give back at least some of the seventy six
one hundred dollars she paid for the wedding venue.
Speaker 4 (01:04:03):
Her suggestion was, maybe you can do a memorial here
on the wedding day.
Speaker 21 (01:04:09):
And that even now.
Speaker 35 (01:04:11):
Sorry, The owner of the wedding venue encourages clients to
purchase third party cancellation insurance. In a statement, the company
says Crystal Ballroom has served thousands of couples over many years,
while also encountering a small number of illnesses, accidents, deaths,
military deployments, and other life events. These experiences shaped our
(01:04:32):
policies and procedures not to avoid responsibility, but to protect clients, vendors,
and the venue in a fair, transparent, and legally sound way.
Speaker 7 (01:04:43):
Ooh, first things first, rest in peace to William Coney,
died unexpectedly at the age of forty two from a
heart attack. This is why I encourage you all to
take your cardiovascular health serious. This is why I encourage
you all to go see doctor Puma and go get
a star and heart scan. Please, please, please, brothers, take
your cardiovascular health serious, because I'll I don't know if
it's the food, COVID, the vaccine stress, something as younger
(01:05:04):
people having heart attacks and strokes.
Speaker 6 (01:05:05):
So please take care of yourself.
Speaker 7 (01:05:07):
But this is why I get conflicted, because business is business,
and there is a reason venues take deposits. Okay, I
don't know the details of the contract. I don't know
the stipulations in the contract. Most contracts have a clause
for unforeseen, uncontrollable events. I think it's called the force
majure clause majure clause commonly known as the Act of
God clause. And I would think death would fall under that.
(01:05:30):
It's not like she just canceled for no reason. And
I would think a vinya would refund the deposit just
out of the kindness of their heart, even if they
legally didn't have to. And that is where the situation
gets perplexing for me, because I'm expecting me from other people. Okay,
I'm not saying I think Crystal Ballroom is wrong because
legally I don't believe they are.
Speaker 6 (01:05:47):
From a business perspective, they aren't at all.
Speaker 7 (01:05:50):
But from a human perspective, from a kindness perspective, they
could give tire break and give her the deposit back there.
I thought it was very cold to suggest to her
to do the memorial there. Sadly, the venue is thinking
about their bottom line. Okay, they don't want to miss
out on that seventy six hundred. That's a lot of money.
I get it, But damn, did you not have a
heart or does a heart matter? When a contract was
(01:06:11):
signed and business was done by the way? News six
Orlando confirmed that the contract states all payments are non refundable.
Speaker 6 (01:06:20):
Okay, But I agree with Ty Hinson.
Speaker 7 (01:06:22):
She said she understands the legal side, but there should
be space for compassion. Okay, Ty said, and I agree
with her wholeheartedly. My compassion is a human being carries
over into my business. But then I understand with the
venue owner lukox Rakowski is coming from, because he said
they are a full service venue that coordinates space, staffing, inventory,
(01:06:43):
and third party services months in advance and incurs costs
on a different timeline than individual vendors, and they said
that complex and unfortunate situations like death have shaped their
policies to be fair, transparent, and legally sound.
Speaker 6 (01:06:58):
He noted that these rules are reviewed.
Speaker 7 (01:07:01):
Before signing to avoid emotional or inconsistent decision making later.
Speaker 6 (01:07:07):
So where are we with this? I really see both
sides of this situation. I understand.
Speaker 7 (01:07:12):
But people want this owner Lukasprikowski and this venue to
get donkey of the day.
Speaker 6 (01:07:17):
So let's open up the phone lines. One hundred and
five five one. We gotta go to Breakfast Club Court.
Speaker 1 (01:07:24):
We gotta go to Breakfast Club Court.
Speaker 5 (01:07:25):
Now people are saying that this owner and this establishment
should have a heart. But also this is business. They
had to pay other people. They had to pay maybe
the florist, maybe the DJ.
Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
Maybe the sound maybe balloons, whatever, they had to pay.
A lot of that had to go out.
Speaker 5 (01:07:39):
And not only that, they heard these costs months in advance. Yes,
they booked these things out here as in advance. So
if you don't take this date, somebody else would have.
So they gave it to you. So it is what
it is. But what he did say was that person
should have got insurance. If you would have got insurance,
nothing would have happened.
Speaker 6 (01:07:57):
But I didn't hear that.
Speaker 1 (01:07:58):
That's what you you said. You said, should have got insurance.
That's what you said. I said that, Yes, I don't know,
I don't remember. Make that up. Insurance just in case something happened.
Speaker 6 (01:08:12):
No, he said, he said.
Speaker 7 (01:08:14):
The owner noted that these rules are reviewed before signing
to avoid emotional or inconsistent decision making later.
Speaker 1 (01:08:22):
If I heard. But anyway, that's the question. Eight hundred
five eight five one oh five one. Who's at fault?
Speaker 5 (01:08:26):
Who should get the donkey? Should it be the owner
of the establishment or not? Let's discuss eight hundred five
eight five one oh five one. It's the breakfast Club,
good morning.
Speaker 21 (01:08:41):
Let's say if you'all talking about it, you know we
talking about it.
Speaker 6 (01:08:46):
It's topic times called.
Speaker 21 (01:08:48):
Eight hundred five eight five one o five one to
join into the discussion with the breakfast Club morning.
Speaker 5 (01:08:53):
Everybody's DJ envyes hilarious. Charlamagne the guy we are the
Breakfast club. If he's just joining us, Charlomagne might or
might not give donkey the DAYA who man?
Speaker 7 (01:09:03):
Lou was his name, Lou kotts Rakowski is the owner
of the Crystal Ballroom in Lake Mary, Floyd. And I listen,
I could go either way with this. People suggest things
for me for donkey of today. Somebody suggested this to me,
and then I went to go look at the story,
and I was like, I don't know if this is
Donkey of the Day worthy, because what happened was sadly,
(01:09:23):
there was a couple who were supposed to get married
at the venue, Ty Henson and William Coney.
Speaker 6 (01:09:28):
They were supposed to.
Speaker 7 (01:09:28):
Get married in May of this year, but then William
died of a heart attack at forty two years old.
And so you know, Ty wants to get the seventy
six hundred that they put into the venue back, but
the vinue doesn't have to give the money back because
the contract, you know, says that they noted that these
rules are reviewed before signing to avoid emotional or inconsistent
(01:09:51):
decision making later.
Speaker 6 (01:09:53):
So they're not contractually obligated to give the money back.
Speaker 1 (01:09:56):
Right, But this is how I look at it. It
is sad, but yeah, that business is a business where they, you.
Speaker 5 (01:10:02):
Know, sell packages, weddings, baby showers, and if that date
wasn't taken by them, they could.
Speaker 1 (01:10:05):
Have sold it to another person, right, And and the.
Speaker 5 (01:10:08):
News reporters where I heard the trip insurance, but it's
like this, if you book a trip or vacation and
somebody passes away and you don't have trip insurance. If
you buy tickets to a football game, or if you
buy tickets to a basketball game, if something happens, you.
Speaker 1 (01:10:23):
Got to keep those tickets.
Speaker 7 (01:10:24):
But I will say there's one difference. The difference is
like this is a business, this is a venue, and
it's the owner of a venue that you can actually
pick up the phone and call. It's very hard to
do that with the trips. It's very hard to get
with trips. You're talking to an operator. With trips, you're
talking to you know.
Speaker 1 (01:10:42):
Trip insurance and if they and they tell you get trip,
get insurance just in case something happens.
Speaker 5 (01:10:48):
I also have to run a business meeting. I can't
continue to do this because I put money out. I
could have made money. This panther like, I made arrangements
to do this, and now that I don't, I lose
everything as well. And I also want to say it
is horrible, but his business, you know what I mean,
And you should have got the insurance so that way
he was coming true.
Speaker 6 (01:11:07):
And the owner puts some money into her goalfund me
as well to like five hundred.
Speaker 37 (01:11:10):
Dollars, want to put five to her goal for me,
And he said he just did that personally, Yeah, you know,
on behalf of his venue he just did that that person,
So clearly he feels bad about this situation.
Speaker 7 (01:11:21):
But you know, listen, man, I understand the legal side,
but I just wonder, like Ty Henson said, shouldn't there
be space for compassion? You know, Ty said, because ties
of cosmetologist. So she got her own business. She said,
my compassion is a human being carries over into my
my business. But you know, as the owner of the venue,
says Lucas Rokowski, he said, they're a full service venue
(01:11:42):
that coordinates space, staffing, inventory, and third party services months
in advance, and they incur costs on a different timeline
than individual vengers.
Speaker 1 (01:11:51):
So he's already spent some money, correct.
Speaker 5 (01:11:53):
Because they have to prepare the flowers, prepare balloons, prepared
table chairs, prepare sounds, prepare all that. So if I
had to put my help, should I have to lose?
Because yeah, you know what happened.
Speaker 10 (01:12:04):
And then she's a cosmetologist, so she got to look
at it like from a business standpoint as well. If
she's booked to do a wedding like a bridesmaids and
a bride or whatever, right, and they have a deposit
that they put down, say the wedding for whatever reason,
don't go through. Now does she give back her deposit?
Give back that deposit?
Speaker 7 (01:12:22):
Yeah, she said she actually has, she said, she says,
I understand contract. She says she wants issue to refund
to someone when a hurricane destroyed their home before their wedding.
And that's what she said. My compassion is the human
being carries over.
Speaker 1 (01:12:33):
Into my Sure, let's go to the form OMASI what's up, hey,
what's going on?
Speaker 6 (01:12:38):
Fellasi?
Speaker 1 (01:12:39):
What's your thoughts?
Speaker 6 (01:12:40):
Brother? All right?
Speaker 35 (01:12:41):
Man?
Speaker 18 (01:12:41):
So I said don't the other day. Should definitely go
to the defender.
Speaker 11 (01:12:46):
And the reason I may that is because I have
a building that I often run off the parties, receptions,
things of that nature. They should give the people they
deposited back because of the fact the venders that I
ill with will give me my deposits back because I
had to cancel on situations like that involving a death.
(01:13:09):
Now I do offer the cancelation insurance as well, but
that's for like hurricanes, bad weather. Somebody got to see
things like that. But definitely a death, you should definitely
give them people at least half of their money back
because I'm getting some of my money back from my fenders.
Speaker 6 (01:13:26):
That I deal with.
Speaker 7 (01:13:27):
I was thinking about what about keeping the cost you
incurred and then giving them the money back. You know
what I'm saying, if you got paid seventy six honey,
like because the venda said he already encouraged them costs.
Speaker 1 (01:13:37):
So if he had to run two thousand, paid the
two thousand.
Speaker 7 (01:13:40):
About how about get your money back of the cost
you and curb but didn't give her the rest of them?
Speaker 6 (01:13:43):
Right?
Speaker 18 (01:13:44):
I agree exactly that That's what I would do.
Speaker 30 (01:13:47):
I would you know what I then spent.
Speaker 11 (01:13:50):
I would eat for myself and say, well, I've encouraged
this cost.
Speaker 18 (01:13:54):
This is the balance of what you paid.
Speaker 24 (01:13:56):
Here you go.
Speaker 11 (01:13:57):
I hope you know my condolences to you and your
That's what I would.
Speaker 1 (01:14:01):
I think that's fair. If he wants to hello, who's
this wisdom? They wisdom gome on and talk to us.
Speaker 18 (01:14:07):
So I think that both of them should get a little.
Speaker 1 (01:14:09):
Bit of a donkey.
Speaker 6 (01:14:11):
You think I should?
Speaker 18 (01:14:13):
I think they both should just a little bit.
Speaker 24 (01:14:15):
Why well for the for the the brock.
Speaker 31 (01:14:19):
Anytime you book the.
Speaker 18 (01:14:21):
Thing for an event for any any type of thief,
do you make sure that you have to be insurance?
Speaker 6 (01:14:27):
I mean, if you book it something that's true.
Speaker 31 (01:14:29):
What if it means you want to be able to
happen and tructurally if it's a wedding, you gotta have
You gotta annoy your tea's course when it comes.
Speaker 6 (01:14:40):
To your wedding, right, that's true.
Speaker 5 (01:14:42):
The only thing your that is though, And I think
anybody knows planning a wedding, every dollar matters and every
dollar counts, right, And sometimes you're really stretching to pull
these weddings off, and you're praying that your guests give
you back some of that money to make your money back,
so they might not have had that to do that,
which is sad, you know.
Speaker 6 (01:14:58):
Yeah, the owner of the the.
Speaker 24 (01:15:01):
One, whether she was wed, if she was not, you're
still gonna have to be to ensure yourself side get in.
Speaker 1 (01:15:11):
Yeah, she said if it was an outdoor wady, but
the venue, whole video, the indoor hole.
Speaker 10 (01:15:14):
Yeah, why she didn't do the insurance, Yeah, saying I
don't know, I understand that serious, So I get what
she's saying.
Speaker 1 (01:15:20):
I just feel so bad for it. I don't want
to give her.
Speaker 10 (01:15:22):
I wouldn't give her even a little bit of donkey
because I know she agrieved. Right now, she's going through it.
But and she may not have been able to afford
the insurance because sometimes that's high as well.
Speaker 1 (01:15:32):
But I don't fault the venue either.
Speaker 32 (01:15:37):
Good morning.
Speaker 8 (01:15:38):
This was the west out of Atlanta.
Speaker 6 (01:15:40):
West what I'm turning?
Speaker 24 (01:15:41):
Oh yeah, it's the west side of Atlanta. I really
she should.
Speaker 8 (01:15:44):
Get done the to day because people going to the
contrast willy thinking that all what that won't happen to me?
And then when it happens, you know that if they
want somebody to have compassion and billings for them, which
is understandable, but that company probably had already took losses
from having compassion for people before they come over with
their new rules of regulation for what they do their things,
(01:16:05):
the way they.
Speaker 5 (01:16:05):
Do, that's what the owners I mean, yeah, yeah, and
I know you know that's why contracts are signed.
Speaker 1 (01:16:11):
Contracts are signed to protect really both parties depending on
what happens. And yeah, I mean.
Speaker 5 (01:16:16):
It's tough, it's horrible, it's nasty, it's disgusting, but but
it is business.
Speaker 1 (01:16:19):
It's business. Thank you, brother?
Speaker 6 (01:16:21):
Hello, who's this? What's up?
Speaker 1 (01:16:25):
What's your thoughts?
Speaker 26 (01:16:26):
I definitely think my man ship, the owner of that venue,
should give her some of that money back.
Speaker 37 (01:16:30):
I definitely understand that he has said other venues and
advance like.
Speaker 18 (01:16:34):
Deposits for DJ Cooks.
Speaker 26 (01:16:37):
Okay, subtract those deposits he made and give her the
rest of the money back.
Speaker 8 (01:16:41):
It's only right.
Speaker 26 (01:16:42):
They'll make it visual of right, So I think definitely
give me.
Speaker 6 (01:16:45):
Some of the money back.
Speaker 1 (01:16:46):
Okay. Yeah, if it was me, I would have. I
was the owner, you know, because they said they already
had to incur some costs.
Speaker 7 (01:16:51):
Whatever the cost word that you already had to incur,
you take that and then you give her the rest
of the money.
Speaker 1 (01:16:56):
Hello, who's this.
Speaker 16 (01:16:59):
From Jerry?
Speaker 1 (01:17:01):
So what's your thoughts?
Speaker 11 (01:17:03):
So Mormon, I.
Speaker 38 (01:17:04):
Definitely as an event space owner, I definitely think it's
the client's put reading a fundamental and unfortunately a lot
of people just don't read their contract properly. Yes, we
still have compassion, but we do have games that are
playing but east today at someone's books an event. So
I created a payment protection kind of like a flight protection.
If you don't pay for the payment protection, unfortunately, you
(01:17:26):
willership deposit.
Speaker 6 (01:17:28):
And I want people to know.
Speaker 7 (01:17:29):
Tali is a cosmetologist as well, so she says she
completely understands business but she also understands the legal side,
and she said that they should just be space for compassion.
She said her compassion as a human being carries over
into her business. And she also gave an example of
how she gave She issued a refunded someone when a
hurricane destroyed their home before their wedding.
Speaker 8 (01:17:50):
Right.
Speaker 5 (01:17:50):
But also, if I own a business, and I'm telling
you take the insuranceell because it protects me and you, Right,
So if this does happen, I still get paid, You
still get paid, You can get your money back. And
if I'm telling you to do that and you don't
do it and then something horribly happens, how does it
fall back on the business owner? Because he has bills,
he has expenses, he has to pay for a mortgage
(01:18:11):
or or whatever it may be.
Speaker 10 (01:18:12):
I mean, she probably just didn't, you know, think, oh
my god, my husband, my fiance is going to pass away.
Although anything else could have happened. You need that insurance
for protection from any and everything. But she just didn't,
you know, And.
Speaker 1 (01:18:24):
Then she probably couldn't afford it, depending on how much
the insurance was.
Speaker 5 (01:18:28):
Even when I took a trip somewhere, Right, if I
book a trip locally, I don't get that insurance.
Speaker 1 (01:18:32):
Yeah, if I go somewhere where it's cost to me
a lot, I definitely get.
Speaker 6 (01:18:35):
It just in case everything, even their line ticket.
Speaker 7 (01:18:38):
Like, people don't ever check that little box, that little box,
you know, if it's local, ywhere, if it's in the US,
I won't.
Speaker 6 (01:18:45):
But if it's I do him everywhere, everywhere, international and US. Hell, yeah,
you just never know.
Speaker 30 (01:18:50):
You just never know.
Speaker 1 (01:18:51):
Yeah, all right, Well, what's the morrow little story?
Speaker 6 (01:18:53):
I think we gotta hung jury.
Speaker 7 (01:18:55):
I mean we gotta hung jury because it seems like
people will understand both sides. I don't think we were
giving her donkey of the day in no way, shape
or phone, because I don't think it was her.
Speaker 6 (01:19:04):
Fault, and I don't think it's the venue's fault.
Speaker 10 (01:19:06):
I don't feel like anybody it's just a it's just anituation,
you know.
Speaker 1 (01:19:10):
I don't think anybody deserves donkey.
Speaker 7 (01:19:12):
Now, what I would say if I was, like I've
been saying it all morning, if I was a business owner,
whatever cost I have already incurred, I'll take my money
from that, and I would give her the rest back
just out of the goodness of my heart. And I
just feel like, not only is that good business, just
as a human being, that's the right thing to do.
Speaker 5 (01:19:30):
But even if he doesn't, it's like, you know, it's
all right, well, we got the Latest with Lauren coming up,
so don't move.
Speaker 1 (01:19:37):
It's the breakfast club in the morning. M becoming a
straight fast she gets somebody was a little bit about everything.
Speaker 6 (01:19:48):
She be having the latest on.
Speaker 1 (01:19:51):
The latest with Lauren la Rosa.
Speaker 6 (01:19:53):
Sometimes you have sometimes you have details. Sometimes you have
a little bit of everything on the breakfast clouds.
Speaker 4 (01:20:00):
Some days that's what happened. Why y'all say that the
word I missed it, I was put my maraphones.
Speaker 6 (01:20:04):
Taylor Drop was loud as hell. She just bullguarded in.
Speaker 4 (01:20:08):
She deserves it. She do a great job.
Speaker 27 (01:20:11):
Real quick, before we get into this hobura, I want
to say send a rest in peace to Valentino Garvani.
I know I said his last name wrong, that is
my best pronunciation. But he's one of the found the
founders of Valentino, which is the couture fashion brand that
was founded back in the nineteen sixties. He passed away
over the weekend at age ninety three. So I wanted
to say resting peace to him.
Speaker 6 (01:20:32):
That's long life.
Speaker 4 (01:20:34):
You know, Valentino the clothing brand.
Speaker 27 (01:20:36):
Yeah, if I show you it, because you know, he
don't really be like yeah that, but yeah, if I
show you it, you you'll recognize the emblem of the brand.
Speaker 4 (01:20:45):
But yeah.
Speaker 27 (01:20:46):
So in other news, as we move forward, Lamar odom
over the weekend, was arrested for a d u I
in Las Vegas.
Speaker 8 (01:20:54):
Uh.
Speaker 27 (01:20:55):
Yeah, he was arrested in booked for driver under the
influence after he was pulled over early Saturday morning.
Speaker 4 (01:21:00):
The incident is still under investigation. He's no longer in custody.
Speaker 1 (01:21:03):
Doesn't he have rehab centers though?
Speaker 27 (01:21:04):
So that was a conversation at one point about him
having rehab centers, but it ended prior to his DUI arrests.
His former manager he was opening up centers to help
people get through different addictions.
Speaker 6 (01:21:17):
So give him some grades, what you mean.
Speaker 25 (01:21:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 27 (01:21:23):
From twenty twenty three to twenty twenty five, Lamar Oldham
owned Oldham Recovery Group, which was a marketing company for
rehab senior living in dental He never started a business.
But there's another guy that they're talking about, two guys,
Dante or Martinez. In fact, this is a statement from
his manager. They opened Oldham Wellness Treatment Centers as an
LLC in early twenty twenty three without Lamar on it,
and Lamar's attorneys had it closed by May of twenty
(01:21:45):
twenty three when it came to Lamar's attention, So all
of that was basically done before all this has happened.
People started to talk about that, the fact that he's
been pulled over for this DUI and he owned c
rehab center. So they came out and clarified that he
you know that, and that partnership is officially over.
Speaker 6 (01:22:01):
Rehab is not linear, right, Yes, it's still a form
of healing.
Speaker 4 (01:22:05):
Yes, very much.
Speaker 10 (01:22:06):
And if you're fighting with something like that, you're fighting.
I imagine you're fighting every day, you know what I
mean to You're fighting against all of that.
Speaker 7 (01:22:13):
Though, because I did not like drunk drivers, because drunk
drivers are very responsible and you know, you can get
on the road and end up killing somebody.
Speaker 5 (01:22:18):
And the sad part is I'm sure he wasn't by himself,
so somebody had to see him drinking, know he was
having a fight with alcoholism and all that other stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:22:25):
She'd have said, Nah, don't do that.
Speaker 27 (01:22:27):
Yeah, drive, yes, but I mean, here we are, you know,
spin portal on the suspicion, so we'll have.
Speaker 7 (01:22:33):
To driving under the influence is wild in twenty twenty
six when you got Uber and Lyft.
Speaker 10 (01:22:38):
Has so many actions, so many ways that you don't
have to drive under the influence.
Speaker 27 (01:22:43):
And the crazy thing too is he was cited for
driving more than forty one miles per hour over the limit,
and then there was an improper lane change and failure
to maintain a lane that police said that they noticed.
So it's kind of like, you know, not only are
you drive under the influence, but you're going so fast
that you know, like someone's going to see you and
stop you, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (01:23:00):
Yeah, so we'll be following that definite.
Speaker 1 (01:23:03):
Damn.
Speaker 4 (01:23:04):
I should have sent it to you.
Speaker 30 (01:23:05):
My bad.
Speaker 10 (01:23:06):
All right, Thank god nobody he didn't get so when accident,
nobody got killed.
Speaker 1 (01:23:10):
He didn't get killed.
Speaker 4 (01:23:11):
Yes, yes, one hundred percent.
Speaker 13 (01:23:14):
Uh.
Speaker 27 (01:23:14):
Now, in other news, Mary J. Blige, she is on
what was on seven PM in Brooklyn. She's promoting, uh,
you know, her new residency in Vegas, and she's having
a conversation about unreleased music and music in general, and
she talks about a time where she there's a song
that she wanted to release with jay Z, but because
it was leaked, she couldn't release it.
Speaker 4 (01:23:33):
Let's take a listen to Mary J. Blige on jay
Z song.
Speaker 7 (01:23:35):
Are there any songs in the vault and your vault
of music of making music that never came out that
you're like, damn, I wish this song.
Speaker 6 (01:23:43):
When it came out.
Speaker 34 (01:23:44):
YEP, I was playing one the other day, and this
one actually has whole warning, That's all I'm gonna say.
Speaker 1 (01:23:49):
And it's it's a monster to the record.
Speaker 14 (01:24:00):
We were young, when we were younger, you know, we
was amp recording that record.
Speaker 34 (01:24:04):
Okay, I'm not going to say who it was because
I don't want somebody to come back, but somebody leaked
it and.
Speaker 14 (01:24:09):
Then we could and then we couldn't do nothing anything.
Speaker 34 (01:24:12):
With it because then HO was like then, you know,
he was felt disrespected that someone from my session had
leaked it.
Speaker 6 (01:24:19):
What record was leaked? The mixtape?
Speaker 30 (01:24:22):
Guy?
Speaker 6 (01:24:22):
So what record was that?
Speaker 1 (01:24:24):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:24:25):
So when I looked it up, I saw that.
Speaker 27 (01:24:27):
Back in two thousand and three, when she was doing
her Loving Life album, there was supposed to be rock
study by DJ Clue that was supposed to be on
the project, and people say that that was leaked and
that that might be the song. But then but then
I saw people reporting this as if this is a
new song that we haven't heard, that only the well
not only believe.
Speaker 35 (01:24:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 27 (01:24:46):
I mean so I don't really know for sure which
or what she's referring to, but she says it's a
good one. And they did talk about, like, you know,
whether they could ever come to terms where it could
be like remix and mastered and maybe Jaz would let
her up.
Speaker 4 (01:24:58):
Yeah, she said, you know, it's it's kind of his car.
Speaker 27 (01:25:00):
But then she also talked about talking to speaking of
jay Z Umbrella, Rihanna's song that was like you know,
one of her big breakout hits on her Good Girl
Going Bad album, was supposed to be for Mary J.
Speaker 4 (01:25:10):
Blige, but she said, no, I didn't want to do it.
Let's take listen to that.
Speaker 1 (01:25:13):
What's that one song on one Beat that got away
from you?
Speaker 34 (01:25:16):
So it was during the breakthrough album and Be Without
You was on fire and the whole album was on fire,
and I was nominated for eight Grammys, and Dream and
Tricky came to me with Umbrella. All of her was it,
And I was like, yeah, my fans is a little bug.
I want me to hear me take my eight. So
I was like, I got a lot going on. I'm
gonna pass.
Speaker 14 (01:25:35):
Then when I heard Rihanna do it, I was like,
see it was.
Speaker 4 (01:25:39):
It wasn't for me.
Speaker 34 (01:25:40):
I'm not afraid to pass on something that's not for me.
It got away, it got away, but it wasn't for
me in the first place.
Speaker 1 (01:25:47):
That record is not for Mary.
Speaker 27 (01:25:49):
Yeah, and the story goes they took it to Britney Spears,
then they took it to Mary J.
Speaker 4 (01:25:54):
Blige, and then it ended up with Rihanna.
Speaker 1 (01:25:56):
That's how that happened before Rainy Days was supposed to
be for tc JO.
Speaker 6 (01:25:59):
Yah.
Speaker 4 (01:26:01):
Yeah, I feel like that happens for a lot of artists.
Speaker 6 (01:26:03):
I think you got to know yourself.
Speaker 4 (01:26:04):
You got to know what you Yeah, because I can't
imagine her on that.
Speaker 1 (01:26:09):
It's like perfect.
Speaker 6 (01:26:10):
Just because Mary did it didn't didn't mean it would
turn into a hit the way out.
Speaker 4 (01:26:14):

Speaker 7 (03:01):
I watch the full game, but I will say it
felt very nostalgic watching the University of Miami compete for
a national championship. Like you know, I was born in
nineteen hundred and seventy eight, so I understand what the
U means the culture, Like, some things are just more
than sports. Okay, University of Miami is culture. Doesn't matter
where you from. You know, you had some Hurricanes merch,
you had a Miami Hurricanes at you had a Miami
Hurricanes started.

Some things was just mandatory. Okay. Yeah, when you grew
up in a certain era.

I don't want to play no more. He was like,
I got my fix, and yeah, they go to the Yes,
so stupid. I sold him the same thing. But he
was at the game last night. He was facetiming me
from the game last night when they were when they
were catching up.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
We're gonna come back, man, Logan doing was Logan get money. Man,
I'm proud of that. Boy.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
I would love to celebrate in Indiana this morning, but
Indiana just won't have no music. That's part of the coaching,
you know what I'm saying. So even so, we got

Speaker 5 (05:07):
Now they didn't put the score here on the game,
but yes, Charlamagne just told you. Indiana beat Miami last night,
twenty one to twenty seven. It came down really to
the last couple of plays and Miami threw an interception.
So against to Indiana, and salute for the amazing Cson Miami.

Also over the weekend, NFL a Rams beat the Bars,

That looks like they gonna get there. Probably gonna get

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Yeah, yeah, looks like they're gonna get to the super Bowl.
But what's uping to me?
Speaker 14 (05:47):
Good morning?
Speaker 15 (05:47):
Envy, Josh Charlamagne, How y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 16 (05:50):
Girl?
Speaker 14 (05:51):
Good morning?
Speaker 15 (05:52):
Will we start this morning in Minnesota where tensions are
running high and the situation continues to escalate. Now, this
all traces back to the fatal shooting of Renee Good,
a mother of three and a US citizen, who was
killed by an ICE officer in Minneapolis earlier this month.
That since then, federal immigration enforcement has expanded across the
city and protests have intensified. And now the federal response
(06:15):
is also growing. The Pentagon has placed about fifteen hundred
troops on standby as President Trump openly floats invoking the
Insurrection Act. That's a law that would allow federal troops
to be deployed inside the US Now. At the same time,
the Justice Department is investigating Minnesota's top leaders. Federal officials
are examining whether Governor Tim Waltz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob
(06:38):
Fry interfered with federal immigration operations through public criticism of
ICE and the federal handling of Good's death.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Now, as protests.
Speaker 15 (06:46):
Continued over the weekend, they moved beyond the streets and
into a church. On Sunday, demonstrators entered city's church in
Saint Paul, interrupting services and chanting Ice out and calling
for justice for Renee Good. Testers say they targeted that
church because they believe one of its pastors, David Easterwood,
also leads the local ICE field office at that protest,
(07:09):
is now the center of a federal investigation, pulling in
former CNN anchor Don Lemon into the story. Now he
livestream from inside the church on his YouTube channel, But
the Justice Department says otherwise. They are accusing Leomen of
embedding himself in the protests. Let's listen to the civil
Rights Chief of the Justice Civil Rights Justice Department Chief.
Speaker 17 (07:30):
Journalism is not a badge or shield that protects you
from criminal consequences when you are part of a crime.
And I think the videos show how close he was
to these folks. I think further evidence will show more
information about that. But he clearly knew, and he stated
before going into the facility. It's on his own video
(07:52):
what was going to happen there. What was going to
happen was a violation of federal law. It's off limits
to go into a house of worship to do the
little protests. Protests can occur on public property. Protests can
occur outside on a sidewalk, certain.
Speaker 18 (08:06):
Sidewalks, not all sidewalks.
Speaker 19 (08:08):
There's a time placed in manner restrictions on the First
Amendment write a protest, and they were violated here in
this case, no question about it.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
The only question is who was involved, how many.
Speaker 19 (08:18):
Were involved, and how many chargers are going to be
brought here? Those are the questions.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Now.
Speaker 15 (08:23):
This portion, and this is the portion of Leomen's coverage
that the Justice Department seems to be pointing to, is
part of what you just heard in that SoundBite just there.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Let's listen to that.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
This is an operation that is a secret that they
invited folks out.
Speaker 10 (08:40):
This is operation pull out, more of a clandestine operation.
Speaker 9 (08:43):
We show up somewhere, they don't expect us to come there,
and then we disrupt business as usual.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
So right now is kind of mayhem.
Speaker 20 (08:52):
We're not part of the activist but we're here just
recording on them.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
The they's going to do whither' here they did.
Speaker 21 (09:00):
They said that there's someone here at Listerwood, someone who
is a member of.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
ICE and he's a pastor of the church.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Our church had gathered for worship.
Speaker 6 (09:09):
We should do.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Every Sunday, we asked him to leave, and they.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Obviously have not theft.
Speaker 15 (09:17):
So that is the portion that the Justice Department is
saying that Don Lemon was embedding himself into the protest
by saying before that there was some secret operation happening.
You know, he was doing his reporting beforehand before going
into the church, and then he followed the protesters into
the church, and after the scene inside the church, the
administration says the protests is now under federal review and
(09:40):
investigators are examining possible violations of the Face Act, and
that's what makes it illegal to disrupt religious services a women.
He is pushing back on those accusations, saying that he
was only there to report, not to participate in noting
that other journalists were also there. Let's listen to some
of his pushback.
Speaker 22 (09:58):
Did no planning. There's no EVI of any planning. But
I was there covering the protesters. I flew into Minneapolis
that morning they were holding an event, and I said, well,
why don't I just go with you guys to see
what you're doing today, And they said, fine, come with us,
and I chronicle it throughout my show live. I had
no idea of the planning. I didn't even know where
we were going, not that that even matters. Again, I'm
(10:20):
a journalist. That's what I was doing. I talked to
the people at the church. I talked to the pastor,
I talked to the congregants, I talked to the protesters,
and that's it.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
And then I left. Also, I wasn't the only.
Speaker 22 (10:31):
Journalist there, so I'm not quite sure how I became
the face in the headline.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
He clearly said that he wasn't part of that protest,
and he was a documentary that he did say that.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
He did say that.
Speaker 15 (10:40):
He said that a couple of times in the middle
and towards the end when it was over. And so
President Trump, he's also weighing in as well, reposting a
message on True Social calling for Lemon to be prosecuted
under that Face Act that we just mentioned, and he's
citing past cases that carried up to a forty year
sentences on that.
Speaker 6 (10:59):
Yeah, I don't like.
Speaker 7 (11:00):
Giving more attention to Don Lemon than we do the
officer who killed her. Innate good, Like that's just a
distraction from the officer Jonathan Ross, because what's up with that?
Like I saw Christy Noms say, the officer, Jonathan Ross
is under internal review. But then I saw an FBI
agent city not go to investigate him. Then I saw
Christy Nome saying they shouldn't say the office's name because
people will dox them, Like, what the hell is going
on me?
Speaker 15 (11:19):
That is exactly all of those things are going on.
So the FBI had initially started investigating Jonathan Ross, and
then they quickly pivoted, and now they're investigating her widow
and see if she has any ties to any activists,
and so that case is happening. And then at the
same time, I saw on the Sunday programming where Christinham
did not want to give the name of Jonathan Ross
although it's public right, she didn't want to say the
(11:41):
name because she says that he will be docs and
people will go after him.
Speaker 14 (11:45):
But we already know who it is.
Speaker 15 (11:46):
And so, you know, it's the administration seems to be
pushing people away from, you know, what is really happening
and finding distractions. Again, here we are because a journalist
doing their job has no bearing on you know, what's
actually really going on inside of ICE, right, I mean
inside of Minnesota, which is you know, those Ice raids
and you know all the protests and the things that
(12:07):
we're seeing inside Minneapolis right now.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
Yeah, because I mean protests has got to do two things, right, Like, yes,
you can scream justice for Renee Good, but what does
that look like? That looks like you know, you know,
arresting the officer Jonathan Ross. Are at least calling for
a real investigation of Jonathan.
Speaker 15 (12:21):
Rock, Yeah, exactly. So we will continue to follow what
happens with this. But again, you know, sometimes things seem
what's up is down and what's left is right, and
so we have to kind of, you know, dig a
little deeper to find exactly what's happening, uh with this
with this administration and what's happening in the state of Minnesota.
So coming up at seven, we'll unpacked also the growing
(12:44):
tensions in Greenland and while the Nobel Peace Prize is
now part of that conversation.
Speaker 5 (12:50):

I just wanted to get this off my chance this morning.
So I have a bachelor's in criminal justice and keep
going getting an interviews, but I'm not getting the preventions
or getting job offers in that career field because they say.
Speaker 18 (15:37):
I don't have any experience.
Speaker 9 (15:39):
But how am I supposed to get any experience if
y'all's not going to give you the chance to work?
Not to mention, then I followed what society says to
achieve the Americans lam I have about said, uh student
loan debt that I'm not receiving.
Speaker 18 (15:56):
Overturn all that I have invested in damn. So I
just wanted to get that off my.
Speaker 9 (16:01):
Chest, you know. And it's not like you know, I'm
gonna write your work. I've been working two thousands or eleven
years old, you know, purfield hand. You know, I worked
up until I was none much printed. The day before
I had my daughter, I was orf for somebody's job,
you know.
Speaker 18 (16:18):
So I'm not a bad worker.
Speaker 9 (16:20):
And it's like that I'm just I don't know what
to do. You know at this point, you know, I
work a decil job right now, but it doesn't a
point to the time and effort I put the to
be able to do more for myself and my family.
Speaker 7 (16:35):
I feel like there's so many people with that same.
You get your education and you go out there and
you work hard. In American promises you all this milk
and honey, but then you don't get all that milk
and honey.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
And not only that, then they gotta pay their loans
back and it takes them eight to ten years to
pay that loan back.
Speaker 6 (16:49):
Yep. Next thing, you know, you say that, not.
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Even to mention the student loans is affecting my credit
and everything. So I can't qualified for no house, say business.
I was blessed to inherit a house that I'm currently
fixing up right now, but I had to be through
a he locked and everything. But even that, you know,
it's a struggle to try to keep that in the family.
Speaker 18 (17:16):
I just I don't. I don't get it, you.
Speaker 9 (17:17):
Know, And I've talked our network, I've talked to people,
you know, you know, police officers and everything like that.
Speaker 26 (17:24):
You know, I don't.
Speaker 18 (17:25):
I'm not you know understand that there's.
Speaker 9 (17:27):
Things going on out here that I found upon in
the police system. But I understand that everybody is not
that you know either, And I feel like I chose
to go into this career field because they need more
people like me in that career field.
Speaker 18 (17:43):
Can you know, keep those checks and balances in place?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
But what would you like to do, Like, what would
you like to do with your with your bachelor's degree?
Speaker 9 (17:49):
Well, I would just I would like to work in
at the police station or like in the port system.
Speaker 7 (17:55):
Okay, yeah, I just had I just I got a
friend who's going into the police and cant to me
to fast track their way to be an attorney. I
didn't understand what, you know, what they were trying to
explain to me. But I don't know, right she doesn't
want to be a police officer. She just wants to
work in the place, you know what I'm saying. But
the department when you worked there, othern't that fast tracked
you to the courtroom or something like that.
Speaker 9 (18:15):
Well, I feel like that's kind of not staying though
that myst go out.
Speaker 18 (18:18):

to then for something.

Else that has nothing to do with that, you know,

a scary person.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
I got you. Well, when do you figure out here
on one of these would you.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
Think about leaving Florida, maybe finding a position somewhere outside
of Florida, maybe where they're hiring more people.

Well, yes, I thought about that too, but it's already
bad enough. I'm here in Jacksonville right now because my
sound suffered from a traumatic brain injury, so he wouldn't
hear your service from port.

Okay, so I know this morning Mimi Brown in front
Page News talk to us about, you know, some of
the protests happening in Minneapolis because really good and Don
Lemon and how he's coming to the But Nicki Minaj
is being called out by some people for being, according
to them, homophobic. And the reason why this is happening
is because when the live stream that Donovan did on
(21:11):
his YouTube channel went live and you got picked up
by Knew, she decided Nicki Minaj should tweet about it.
And her tweet says don s word sucking Lemon is disgusting.
How dare you question Mark? I want that thug in jail.
He would never do that to any other religion.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Lock him up.
Speaker 27 (21:27):
And then there's a photo of a chucky doll. Then
she tweets Happy New Year. Then she tweets she retweets
a post by a woman who was talking about the
fact that Don Lemon is married to a white man.
He married Tim Malone, real estate agent, back in twenty
twenty four.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
They started tweeting doctor him all that they.
Speaker 27 (21:46):
Started tweeting and Nicki Minaj reposted it. So I don't
know if it made it the doctor yet, but yeah.
So they talk about their questioning whether he's pro black
or not because of his relationship, and Nicki Minaj retweets
that and says true or false question mark hashtag arrests
Don Lemon. She then tweets photos and she's saying, the
world is watching now. Like I mentioned, you have the
Hollywood reporter Yahoo people that are having a conversation about
(22:09):
her being homophobic. She's trying to have a conversation about
whether Donomona should be locked up or not for.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
Well, it's the way she said sea sucking.
Speaker 7 (22:17):
Yeah, she made it seem like, you know, it was
a bad thing to be a sea sucker.
Speaker 27 (22:21):
But I just feel like her whole if her whole
thing is to bring attention to I think Don Lemon
should be arrested, and all the news coverage is about
the fact that she's homophobic. I think it most of
the news coverage, and on one side, I think it
kind of defeats the purpose.
Speaker 7 (22:33):
But I disagree with you because all I saw yesterday
was them actually calling for Don Lemon to be arrested.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
They literally said they were going to bring charges up
against Don.
Speaker 27 (22:40):
Yeah, I saw there was going to be like the
KKK law that they were going to try to use.
But on one side, I think there's a lot of
conversation about the homophobia now. But Don Lemon himself responded
and he also talked about you know this being homophobic
or not. Let's take a listen to Don Lemon responding
to Nicki Minaj.
Speaker 20 (22:56):
So people have been asking me about responding to Nicki
Minaj's unhinged homophobic tweet about me. Let me just say this,
Nicki Minaj, stop talking about for which you know nothing about.
This is out of your out of your depth, and
you are a homophobic bigot. You don't care about African Americans,
and you're not an African American from what I know.
(23:17):
You are reportedly an undocumented citizen, so you should be
deported under Donald Trump's rules. And the other thing is
that your family members, you have one family member who's
reportedly a sex offender, the other family member of your
husband or whatever.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
A sex offender is your husband.
Speaker 20 (23:30):
And one of them is reportedly a pedophile, and you
have nerve to talk about me and what you think
that I do get a life.
Speaker 6 (23:40):
Stop being a pick me.
Speaker 20 (23:42):
You should have put a pickney doll on that damn
tweet instead of a chucky doll, because you are nothing
but a pick me.
Speaker 6 (23:48):
I choose not to pick you.
Speaker 20 (23:50):
And social black people and social gay people shouldn't buy
your music clock that.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
I will say something now.
Speaker 7 (23:55):
When I heard donal Leman do that rant yesterday, I
guess it never dawned on me.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
I didn't realize nick I was undo dynamited.
Speaker 7 (24:02):
Yeah, I thought that the whole deportation thing was just
a joke. I didn't realize that she thought so too,
but I did see.
Speaker 27 (24:07):
So the same people who are calling for Don Leman
to be locked up or did all the things right,
they're also saying that what he said about her being
undocumented wasn't a thing. But I do know that there
is that not true. There's there's conversation back and forth,
and here's why. So on one side, you have the
petition on change dot org, which is over ninety two
thousand signatures right now, asking for Nicki Mina I should
be deported now. Back in twenty sixteen, Back in twenty sixteen,
(24:30):
Nicki Minat yourself talked about Donald Trump wanting her to
go home and spoke out against deportation policies. And then
in twenty eighteen, she did the same thing, speaking against
Trump and his family separation policies because of her connections
to Trinidad.
Speaker 6 (24:43):
But she undocumented or not she was, I don't know the.
Speaker 4 (24:46):
Answer to that.
Speaker 6 (24:47):
She came over, she was fine.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Yeah, I don't know she did the paperwork to become
a citizen or if she's dual citizenship, we don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
But she was definitely born in Trinette.
Speaker 7 (24:55):
When I looked at her yesterday, I saw her she
posted on Instagram. I guess back in the day I
came to this country as an a legal immigrant. I
didn't know that. Yeah, she talks about the old time
being born in Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:07):
She has a she hare's a song.
Speaker 27 (25:09):
Uh well, yeah, she's talked about it before.
Speaker 4 (25:12):
We just mentioned this.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
But all this time, shoudn't she like be here legally?
Speaker 4 (25:17):
Don't like, shouldn't she We don't know for a fact
that she's not.
Speaker 6 (25:20):
We don't.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I mean she married so that she technically got a
great but that happens to a lot of people.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
Like people come here as a kid, they never get
their citizenship because they don't really think about it. They
consider these South American and then they get in trouble
and then they get like that happened to Sean.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Sean was Yeah, even what's his name?
Speaker 5 (25:36):
If you watched Real Housewives of New Jersey, Teresa's husband
jo Ju Dice, he went to elementary school here, middle
school here, high school here, uh college and then when
you get a crime.
Speaker 7 (25:46):
All of you said, she's not a US citizen. I
don't know what that means. I'm sure she paid plenty
of taxes here.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Well, she's in speaking of her marriage.
Speaker 27 (25:55):
A lot of people feel like the you know, the
conversations and all of the support of the Trump administration,
which Donoman mentioned in his CMC interview that he did
about this, is because she's trying to cozy up to
the Trump Trump administration to act for pardons for her husband.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
And you know that's been a whole conversation as well too.
Speaker 7 (26:11):
So if she, I guess, allegedly undocumented, I would think
that would be more of a reason to cozy up
to the Trump administration than the other stuff.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Yeah, well, well we'll see as this goes.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Because and that team they're not deporting.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
On No, she went to the US for that.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
She supports them too much. They're not deporting on.
Speaker 6 (26:29):
Yeah, I don't know why she would trust them people. Yeah,
I don't know why you would trust either to say that.
Speaker 27 (26:36):
I mean, I think because right now, think about all
of the you know, all of the conversation, and she's
kind of like a face of the Trump administration now.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
And it's sucker.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
If youse in a way where you're trying to like,
you know, disparaging.
Speaker 29 (26:50):
Somebody for it, yes, Manna, No.
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Not if you're disparaging me for doing it. You know,
are you crazy?
Speaker 1 (27:00):
But you can describe your woman. I don't mean that.
Don't make it a slur like you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
It's just about how you about We got prostitutes, We
do it, Lauren. But he said it, and she said
it in a disparaging way because he is homosexual.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
That's why. Yeah, come on, come on, guys as well.
Speaker 4 (27:18):
Call him gay in a disparaging way all the time.
Speaker 6 (27:20):
I don't actually do it in a loving way.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Okay, I.
Speaker 6 (27:26):
Called him.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
He didn't say no, I'm not. He just said I'm not.
Speaker 6 (27:30):
Don't don't defend things like that.
Speaker 7 (27:32):
What's the point okay, but also about Don Lemont, I
would be more concerned about the Department of Justice, you know,
threatening me with charges than I would anything.
Speaker 27 (27:41):
Nicki Minaj got to say, Well, he said yesterday on
his live stream when he reacted to the Department of Justice,
that he is fine because he was not there.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
As a protester, and he made it very clear.
Speaker 27 (27:50):
He did say that a lot on the actual church
live stream, that he was just there as a journalist,
which it is in his right, he says, for him
to be able to be there as a journalist and
be covering it.
Speaker 7 (27:59):
I just went, you see the Assistant Attorney General, you know,
threaten you with charges.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
So you want to scare record, are you not?
Speaker 6 (28:06):
I would be, yeah, I'd be I'd be more focused
on that than I would anything.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Like Don said, what about all the other journalists?
Speaker 27 (28:11):
You know what's crazy too. I know we got to
wrap up, but I was thinking about this yesterday. Don
Lemon at CNN like of course he had people always
coming for him, and you know he wasn't everybody's favorite,
but him on his live stream, I feel.
Speaker 7 (28:21):
Like he I remember when they used to treat Don
Lemon the way they treating steven A Smith.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
No, oh, like he hates all.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
When they used to call him Uncle Tom and coohon.
I remember that.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Yeah, when he was in Ferguson he was like, blat
me marijuana when he was holding up the N words
be shign on CNN.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
That's what I remember that vividly.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 27 (28:37):
But I just feel like now the conversations around him
are like, I mean, they're just as big, or it
got bigger because he's on his own. He's able to
do what he wants to do. But it's just a
different conversation. I'm thinking about that yesterday, like how media
has changed so much because he's there on his own
live stream just on YouTube and he's making national news
and making the DJ sit down and tweet and have
these conversations.
Speaker 6 (28:56):
So that's not the conversations I want him to be.
Speaker 7 (28:58):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (29:00):
Scary Well, that is the latest with Laura. Now when
we come back, we got front page news, so don't
go anywhere.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
It's the breakfast Club. Good morning morning everybody.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
It's DJ MV Jess hilarious. Schela mean the guy we
are the breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news.
So the Sports College Championship game last night.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Salu to Indiana. They beat Miami twenty seven.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Twenty one Indiana season was undefeated with sixteen and oh
so salute to Indiana and also salute to Miami out
there now. Also the NBA, they announced the All Star
starters for the twenty twenty sixth game and Lebron out
for the first time in twenty two years. Lebron is
not a starter, so Yanni's Jalen Kate Cunningham, Tyree, Jalen Brown,
(29:42):
the Joker, Luca Shy, Steph Curry, and Victor Webbayama are
all the starters.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
And quickly mister first fourteen games, why he was hurt?
Speaker 30 (29:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Now. Also NFL, the Rams beat the Bears twenty seventeen,
Patriots beat the Texas twenty.
Speaker 5 (29:59):
Eight sixteen, Debroncles beat the Bills thirty three thirty, and
the Seahawks beat the forty nine is forty one two six.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
What's that me?
Speaker 8 (30:06):
Me?
Speaker 4 (30:06):
Good morning?
Speaker 15 (30:07):
MV josh Alea Maain, how y'all doing this morning?
Speaker 14 (30:09):
Good morning?
Speaker 15 (30:10):
So we're following growing tensions between the US and Europe
this morning, sparked by President Trump's renewed push to take
control of Greenland. So, in a text sent over the
weekend to Norway's Prime minister, President Trump wrote that he
is no longer feels he does no longer feel obligated
to think purely of peace, so, writing in part, considering
your country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace
(30:33):
Prize for having stopped eight years of war, plus, I
no longer feel an obligation to purely think of peace,
adding that he will now do what he believes in
the best interests of the United States.
Speaker 17 (30:44):
Now.
Speaker 15 (30:45):
That message came after Norway's Prime minister reach out urging
de escalation. The administration that was pushing back on the
idea that this dispute is about the Nobel Peace Prize.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen says the president's focus on Greenland
is about national security, not personal grievance.
Speaker 4 (31:02):
Let's listen to what you have to say.
Speaker 12 (31:03):
Yeah, and I think it's complete canard that the President
will be doing this because of a Nobel prize. The
President is looking at Greenland as a strategic asset for
the United States. We are not going to outsource our
hemispheric security to anyone else.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
Well.
Speaker 15 (31:19):
Trump is also threatening tariffs, warning that as of February first,
the US could impose a ten percent tariff on Denmark
and other European countries, including Germany and France unless Greenland
is sold now, with those tariffs escalating to as much
as twenty five percent in June if there's still no
deal now, Denmark and its allies they've been spending small
military forces to Greenland in response, and that pressure has
(31:42):
also sparked protests, with thousands marching in Denmark over the weekend,
and European leaders warned that the standoff it risks further
straining NATO, and now they are scrambling to meet with
President Trump tomorrow in Switzerland to try and calm the situation.
Speaker 7 (31:58):
So yeah, I'm the irony and in the Nobel Peace
Prize and then declaring war, you're proving them right exactly
why you.
Speaker 6 (32:04):
Don't deserve the goddamn Nobel Peace Pride.
Speaker 7 (32:07):
And also too when he says that, what do you
say about Greenland? It's a national What do he says
national security?
Speaker 6 (32:11):
What do you say he.
Speaker 15 (32:11):
Said it's a national Were you talking about Secretary Scott
Vessett or.
Speaker 6 (32:16):
No, you said Trump?
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Trump wants Greenland as a matter of national security.
Speaker 14 (32:19):
As a matter of national security, Yes, but wouldn't.
Speaker 7 (32:22):
Going into Greenland threatened the national security of the United States.
Speaker 14 (32:25):
Yes, it would be, but.
Speaker 7 (32:27):
It would make that it would make our allies turn
into our adversaries.
Speaker 15 (32:30):
It absolutely would.
Speaker 14 (32:32):
It would.
Speaker 15 (32:32):
It would set off another war literally, right, so we've
we've got the.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Threat of a global war.
Speaker 15 (32:37):
We have a civil war happening here within the United States,
and we're talking about the Nobel Peace Prize.
Speaker 7 (32:42):
It would it would bring our unity with NATO. Like son,
I don't I don't understand the logic. But once again,
I don't know why we keep trying to make logic
out of elogical things like.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
Greenland only has fifty six thousand people as population, so
it's not even it's not a huge place.
Speaker 6 (32:57):
I hear stuff like this, all I think to myself,
what is in those Stein files.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
What those Steam files that makes him react like this
and cause these type of discrations.
Speaker 14 (33:07):
Absolutely?
Speaker 15 (33:08):
Absolutely, And finally, y'all, if your Instagram we're switching gears
a little bit. So finally, if your Instagram feed suddenly
looks like it did ten years ago, you are not
imagining it twenty sixteen. They are having a moment a
social media analysts say people from across different platforms are
(33:28):
posting throwback photos of what many say are now twenty
sixteen was an iconic Internet error. So users are digging
through old camera rolls, snapchat filters and standing and what's
standing out isn't just how people looked, is how similar
the energy feels. So no matter what you were, what
you wore, or where you lived, people are saying the
energy from twenty sixteen it feels fresh, it feels new,
(33:51):
and it doesn't feel as heavy as it does right now.
So researchers who study digital culture say twenty sixteen it
represents a different phase of the Internet too, So before
the endless scrolling, before algorithms dominated the feed, and before
posting felt performative, they say. Back then, people were largely
just sharing content with friends in their community, not chasing
engagement or brand deals, and say they also say, you know,
(34:13):
life felt lighter, social media felt fun, and for many
it was before the pandemic, before that constant news cycle,
and before the Internet started feeling heavy and exhausted.
Speaker 4 (34:22):
Have y'all noticed or have you.
Speaker 15 (34:24):
Posted some photos from twenty sixteen as well?
Speaker 14 (34:26):
Have you jumped on the trend.
Speaker 6 (34:27):
I definitely did.
Speaker 7 (34:28):
Twenty sixteen was a very great year, you know, twenty sixteen,
that's the year I started going to therapy. It made
a lot of good, like, you know, lifestyle changes, and
really asked God for some direction that God definitely gave
to me. But also to that point, twenty sixteen was
like the beginning of all of this because that was
the year that Trump and Hillary ran against each other
and Trump won his first turn.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Yeah, that's very true.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
That's very very true.
Speaker 15 (34:53):
What about you, Jess, have you been noticing on your
feed the twenty sixteen trend happening?
Speaker 31 (34:57):
No?
Speaker 10 (34:58):
I had people talking about it though, but now I
haven't participated or seen much of it.
Speaker 5 (35:03):
Yeah, I seen it all over the feet. I just
didn't jump into it. I had a time to look. Yeah,
I jump into it. But yeah, it was a great year.
Speaker 6 (35:11):
Yeah nice. I mean I've had a great decade. Just
to be honest with you, my life is amazing. I
don't know to tell you that's great.
Speaker 7 (35:16):
I mean, bigger year, bigger Yeah, you know what I mean.
I just you know, twenty thirty six. I hope we're
still here to look back at the last decade as well.
To be honest with you.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
My kids are good. I'm good. I saw.
Speaker 6 (35:30):
That's what I'm saying, Like.
Speaker 7 (35:31):
Life is great, you know, and I guess what, you
know what it also reminds you of like man, no
matter what you know, God always has a bigger picture.
And we're gonna we're gonna be all right, Like we're
going to be okay and.
Speaker 6 (35:46):
We're not, then that's God will too, right.
Speaker 10 (35:48):
And what you also noticed is like in twenty sixteen
you well maybe not y'all, but like you know how
me and me, like you will be complaining about something
and you'll look around be like, why is this happening?
Speaker 1 (35:58):
On this happening? And then ten years lady, you'd be like, yeah,
I wasn't that bit because that's what.
Speaker 7 (36:03):
I mean exactly exactly. You can take what you just
said to me. You can see why it happened. Like
every single moment in your life plays it plays a role.
It's all just part of this beautiful process that we
live that has us right where we need to be today.
Speaker 15 (36:18):

Speaker 1 (36:29):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (36:31):
Now, let's open up the phone lines. Eight hundred five
eight five one oh five one. I was talking behind
the scenes. I seen a headline. It said comedian Ryan.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Davis says that his daughter's love became transactional and it
broke them. He said, I lost it, and I was like, damn,
you messed up. When you know if your daughter just
calls you nothing for money? And then Charlamayne said's something
that I.
Speaker 5 (36:49):
Did not know because you didn't listen to the interview. No,
I just said headline just like eleven. It's only eleven.
Speaker 7 (36:55):
I heard it play the clip because I thought he
said the daughter was like ten or eleven years old.
Speaker 32 (37:00):
I have an eight year old son and ten year
old daughters. About turn Leaven. My daughter went from I
love my dad.
Speaker 6 (37:08):
To let me see what I can get out of here.
Speaker 25 (37:10):
And when she started looking at me as access to
material things.
Speaker 18 (37:16):
You're ATM.
Speaker 6 (37:17):
All of a sudden, you are dad, You're an ATM.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Broke me.
Speaker 32 (37:20):
Bug me because it was like, I only want.
Speaker 25 (37:22):
To be around him if I can get something out
of him.
Speaker 32 (37:25):
So I'm gonna ask you this.
Speaker 18 (37:26):
Did you have that?
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Did you sit down and have a conversation, how did
you how did you come to this realization that it
was Yes, this is my child, but my child only
wants to be around me because of what the access
that she has to things, personal jewelry, clothes, makeup, whatever
the case may be.
Speaker 25 (37:43):
To watch that daddy's girl go from I just want
to be around him. I just want to touch him.
I just want to sleep on him, be cutled up
to him to if he ain't mind me nothing, I really.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Ain't trying to go.
Speaker 7 (37:55):
I'm like, at that's what they posted. Yeah, they being transactional.
It's just kids, Like I don't even think they understand
the concept of transactional meaning. Like I give you a
perfect example, my daughter wanted to go to a party,
but she didn't do her homework this weekend, so she
couldn't go to the party yesterday, and she.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
Was very upset about that.
Speaker 7 (38:15):
But no, you got to teach them the consequence of
their actions, Like you know, you you you don't get
rewarded correct when you don't do the right thing right.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
But I also feel like I don't know what his
relationship is with his kids.
Speaker 5 (38:27):
If they live with him or not. But I always
say with kids, time matters over everything. Time matters over
over presence. It doesn't matter. You got to be there
in your child's life so your child can understand you.
If you're not, They know you were the breadwinner. Hey, dad,
can I have some money for some stick?
Speaker 6 (38:42):
Dad?
Speaker 11 (38:42):
Can I have that?
Speaker 3 (38:43):
Guy?
Speaker 10 (38:44):
He wouldn't like my son at all. My son asks
for everything he went. And you wouldn't let her go
to a martle yuther King birthday.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
Party, No, because she didn't do her homework birthday party.
Speaker 6 (38:55):
It was not a martinlu King junior birthday party.
Speaker 7 (38:58):
Kid in her class's birthday, your homework wasn't done.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
Just like kids. We all got to teach kids responsibility
in the early age.
Speaker 7 (39:05):
If the room not clean, if your homework not done,
you don't get rewarded, period. And you got to teach
him that. So I don't even understand what he means
when he says his daughter's transactional.
Speaker 5 (39:16):
She don't even understand that that life here. Let's open
up the phone line, take your thoughts. Eight hundred and
five eight five.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
One oh five one is the breakfast club, gome morning.
Speaker 6 (39:27):

We're talking about comedian Ryan Davis. He's been a pair
a bunch of times. He was on the infy guy
Shannon Sharp, and he was talking about his daughter and
how he feels like his love between him and his
daughter became transactional.
Speaker 32 (39:53):
Let's listen, I have an eight year old son and
ten year old daughters. Is about the turn whether my
daughter went from I love my dad to let.
Speaker 6 (40:03):
Me see what I can get out of here.
Speaker 25 (40:04):
And when she started looking at me as access to
like material.
Speaker 24 (40:09):
Things, you're ATM.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
All of a sudden, you are dad, You're an ATM.
Speaker 32 (40:13):
Broke me, broke me because it was like, I only
want to be around.
Speaker 6 (40:17):
Him if I can get something matter of him.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
How did you come to this realization, Yes, this is
my child, but my child only wants to be around
me because of what the access that she has to
things perfume, jewelry, clothes, makeup, whatever the case may be.
To watch that daddy's girl. Go from I just want
to be around him. I just want to touch him.
Speaker 25 (40:37):
I just want to sleep on him, be colored up
to him to if he ain't buying me nothing, I
really ain't trying to go.
Speaker 5 (40:44):
So let's open up the four lines eight hundred and
five eight five one five one. The start with you
just what you think.
Speaker 10 (40:49):
I didn't know that she was, you know, ten to eleven.
But you know what, I honestly feel like he sounds hurt.
This is coming from a hurt place for real. And
although that's what are gonna do at that age, you know,
especially if they know they have they're fortunate, you know,
and they have the means, you know, their parents have
the means to get them whatever, or one of their
parents or whatever. But I think because if you listen
(41:12):
a little further, he actually kind of contradicts itself a
little bit later into it. But I feel like somehow
along the way, you know, him and his baby mother
just wasn't they couldn't get on the same page as
far as cole parents, and and I feel like he
may feel like his mother, I mean, the mother of
his child, maybe turning the child again some not you
know what I'm saying, like, and so he just saying
(41:34):
he ain't find a good way to co parent yet,
Like him and the mother got some other things to
work out, you know.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
And I feel like strickling down to their child.
Speaker 10 (41:42):
Yeah, strickling down to the child, you know, because although
she is young, she is old enough to hear if
mom is saying this or if you know, you know. So,
I just feel like it's he feels like it's some
type of influence from the mother to the child or whatever,
and so he's mad at not mad, but I guess
irritated with the child matter some type of way, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (42:00):
But I would say with any with any relationship with
any child, especially at that age, I think time is
the most important thing right and present because they can
understand and feel. But you know, it's it's we heard
all the time. I feel like I'm eighteen with my kids.
But at ten years old, eleven years old, your kids
want things like your pops.
Speaker 1 (42:17):
I want these new kids. They pops.
Speaker 5 (42:18):
I need cleats and if pops basketball, he pops and
the roadblocks it pops need a.
Speaker 1 (42:23):
Jacket, it pops.
Speaker 29 (42:24):
That's just the way kids are and to be honest,
whether you got it or not, your kids are like
that because I didn't always have it when Ash was
growing up, when he was younger, I wasn't.
Speaker 10 (42:32):
Always you know, rolling the dough like now, you know
what I mean. But the kids get to age where
they wanted, whether you.
Speaker 1 (42:37):
Got it or not.
Speaker 10 (42:38):
So whether Ryan was Ryan Davis the comedian or regular
Ryan around the way, she was going to be like that.
Speaker 5 (42:44):
Anyway, the more you say yes, the more the kids
gonna ask, because yeah, I asked my parents for everything,
and a lot of times it said no, and it
was just it in and you get mad at for
a little bit, but then you'd be like, what it
is dad?
Speaker 1 (42:55):
No?
Speaker 7 (42:58):
Yeah, I need Ryan to found on transactional because when
you are a parent of a ten year old, everything
is quote unquote transactional, but not in the way he
was explaining it though. Ten years old, that's the age
where you are teaching kids about actions and consequences, responsibility,
understanding rules. As y'all both say, kids want everything and
(43:19):
they expect you to get it for them. Okay, they
are watching YouTube, they're watching TV. There's all these ads
being pressed to him constantly. Kids are always asking for
things but guess what, it's up to us as parents
to tell them. No, it's up to us to teach
them consequences and responsibility and to let them know these
things are luxuries not rights.
Speaker 6 (43:38):
Okay, these are treats and rewards.
Speaker 7 (43:40):
And guess what, you don't get these things if your
choice aren't done that's right, if your schoolwork isn't done,
if you was being nasty and got an attitude. So
I really don't understand the context of Ryan's conversation because
that's not the way he explained transactional. Also, I got
four girls seventeen, ten, seven and four. Uh at ten,
(44:01):
they get to that age, Well, it's not about you anymore, daddy, Okay.
They are seeking their own independence. They don't want to
be up under you having daddy daughter cuddle time.
Speaker 6 (44:10):
Okay, but that has nothing to do with you, and
everything to do with hormones.
Speaker 1 (44:14):
Yes, and my daughter, I think like two weeks ago,
I was holding her hand walking on school and she kind.
Speaker 5 (44:20):
Of yeah, and I was like, hey, she was like,
I'm just fixing my.
Speaker 1 (44:26):
I was like, Charlamage says, she's finding her independence, you know.
Speaker 6 (44:30):
But he's but that he only got one daughter, so
he hasn't gone through any.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
Of this this yet, but and his son is younger,
so he yeah, hello.
Speaker 4 (44:38):
Who's this all right?
Speaker 9 (44:39):
This issy?
Speaker 1 (44:41):
What's your thoughts? Mama morning, Good morning.
Speaker 33 (44:44):
My thoughts is that's backwards thinking. My daughter's father went
to vision while I was pregnant with her, and he
did seventeen years. He came home and she would reach
out to him from time to time for like gas
money or a couple of dollars, and he just flat
out and told her, don't call me anymore because every
time you call me, you just want money. So of course,
(45:06):
mama bear, I step in and I'm like, well, for
seventeen years, she couldn't even call you or see you,
so why would it matter what she's calling for. I
just feel that it's the adult responsibility to reach out
to the child that if the choud is everything out accepted.
So what what's twenty dollars for gas? You did seventeen
years in prison?
Speaker 7 (45:27):
He also it was a huge year between seventeen and ten. Man,
I got ten every two.
Speaker 23 (45:32):
Still a child and she's still a child.
Speaker 7 (45:35):
I don't care how it's still a child.
Speaker 1 (45:36):
Yeah, I'm a child. She's still a child.
Speaker 23 (45:39):
You didn't buy the car, you didn't pay the insurance,
pay for insurance.
Speaker 5 (45:42):
And she's not asking for a crib ball car. She
said some gas.
Speaker 33 (45:46):
Still school, right, she's a high school teenager. So I
think that that's just asked backwards thinking.
Speaker 7 (45:53):
And your daughter probably don't know how to have a
conversation with her.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
With him, Yeah, he's been called years. Yeah, hello's was that?
Speaker 18 (46:01):
This is our mister showman and rosell New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (46:04):
Mister brother? What's your thoughts? Brother?
Speaker 18 (46:07):
What's every New Year's y'all?
Speaker 26 (46:08):
Man?
Speaker 6 (46:08):
Love, y'all.
Speaker 11 (46:12):
Listen? Why why aren't this dude on the Sandy Sharp
Show calling out his sting or eleven year old baby?
Speaker 18 (46:20):
At that age, kids wanted to begin to separate and
find their own identity.
Speaker 11 (46:26):
That doesn't matter.
Speaker 18 (46:28):
I mean if you live with them or what you're
doing for them, that's what kids do. They don't want
to be if I love Mama and daddy as kids.
Speaker 23 (46:34):
And prete but when they baby.
Speaker 1 (46:37):
That's what they do.
Speaker 26 (46:38):
Like like, what is going on in the world?
Speaker 8 (46:40):
Was Oh man, it foke me because all she wanted
to do.
Speaker 18 (46:44):
Was be packed and that could be a phase she's
going through. She could be up under him. Again next
month or you know, two months later.
Speaker 24 (46:51):
She's just being a kid.
Speaker 9 (46:53):
But he had on a platform calling calling out his
eleven year old baby because all she's like.
Speaker 1 (47:00):
Like, I don't know, I don't get it.
Speaker 18 (47:02):
I don't get it.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Thank you so taking your calls. We got Brian on theline. Brian,
good morning, good morning. How you'll doing I'm doing?
Speaker 6 (47:09):
Talk to us?
Speaker 1 (47:10):
What's your thoughts?
Speaker 30 (47:11):
Uh? From a friend of stand Yeah, I said a
little bit of immaturity as a parent. I think he
got a little bit more growing up to do as
a father, even though his kids might be a little
bit older. I think his role might be different. And
I think his dad about type of superpower too. Now
that you know, life is a little bit different for him,
it's different.
Speaker 17 (47:29):
For her too.
Speaker 30 (47:30):
So you know, kid's gonna do what they're gonna do.
Speaker 1 (47:34):
Yeah, okay, thank you brother.
Speaker 30 (47:36):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (47:36):
Hello, who's this Andrea?
Speaker 29 (47:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 23 (47:41):
So I was calling just to spread the word around
about the two p m nationwide walkout, and you're gonna
walk out or wherever you are and then walk into
your local how to representatives and demand impeachment of Donald Trump.
Speaker 7 (47:57):
Oh I didn't hear about that. That's what's up when
that's happening today today?
Speaker 23 (48:01):
Yes, it's January the twentie is. And the reason they're
doing it today.
Speaker 18 (48:05):
Is because so that was Donald Trump's inauguration.
Speaker 1 (48:08):
Day, so we could just walk out our job right
now two o'clock.
Speaker 18 (48:13):
PM.
Speaker 6 (48:15):
I didn't know about that. Thank you for letting us know.
Speaker 1 (48:16):
Happy to know. I thought, hello, was this money? Good morning?
Talked to us money?
Speaker 23 (48:24):
Good morning?
Speaker 16 (48:25):
Yeah, these children are a different breed. But I also
remember being like my son is keen. I remember being
his age and I didn't want to go over my
grandma house unless I was on punishment because.
Speaker 23 (48:35):
I knew I could get whatever I want it.
Speaker 9 (48:37):
But my son, he doesn't go.
Speaker 16 (48:39):
To Target with me unless he knows he's getting McDonald's
or he can brow the toy aisle for his birthday
next year.
Speaker 6 (48:46):
Yeah, but why, that's not how kids have always been.
Speaker 7 (48:51):
Yeah, that's not transactional, that's being a kid exactly.
Speaker 31 (48:56):
So yeah, well he's saying that's a little crazy.
Speaker 23 (48:58):
Now, if she was like nineteen twenty or you know.
Speaker 18 (49:02):
An adult, now you got an issue. She's using you.
Speaker 33 (49:05):
But she's a child.
Speaker 16 (49:07):
There to provide for her and give her all these
things you've been doing already.
Speaker 23 (49:12):
Stop spoiling the kids.
Speaker 18 (49:13):
We can't help it.
Speaker 23 (49:14):
We always want to give.
Speaker 31 (49:15):
Every all the kids what we didn't have.
Speaker 18 (49:17):
Or okay, why are they honking at me?
Speaker 10 (49:19):
I'm sorry, you must be fine.
Speaker 16 (49:22):
And then I'm actually stopped. I'm trying to get to
the worst parking line. I might have to be late,
but that's not that's neither here nor there. But I
messed around and told this little boy how much I
made an hour, so now he thinks I'm rich.
Speaker 1 (49:35):
I am.
Speaker 7 (49:37):
It's up to us as parents to teach kids about
consequences and responsibility, and we have to let them know
that these things are luxuries and not rights. And if
you don't do what you're supposed to do, you charge
your homework, have a good attitude, you ain't gonna get
rewarded with these things.
Speaker 10 (49:52):
I love this, Oh my goodness, all right, so.
Speaker 18 (49:58):
My baby for it to and that is my will.
I would never think that it's transactional.
Speaker 1 (50:07):
I'm a mom.
Speaker 18 (50:07):
I love me in mom anyway. Shout out to my
mam ma. My mama is amazing.
Speaker 23 (50:12):
I love y'all.
Speaker 18 (50:12):
I've been listening to se y'all for all the Oh
my gouys.
Speaker 23 (50:16):
I was excited.
Speaker 6 (50:18):
Hate that your destiny.
Speaker 7 (50:19):
I know you did not fight to get through to
give us that little mediocre little that that that was.
Speaker 9 (50:25):
Just I'm nerving.
Speaker 6 (50:28):
She nervous. Ya, that's it. That's all you have. My baby.
Speaker 7 (50:34):
I spoiled my baby. My mama spoiled me. You don't
just do. You don't just do things for your daughter.
Your daughter has to earn.
Speaker 9 (50:39):
No no no no no no no no no no, absolutely
not my baby, no, no no.
Speaker 18 (50:43):
I don't put it radio. I don't put it well,
ibslutely not. You know, you don't do you don't handle
your business. You don't get this.
Speaker 9 (50:50):
Just goes to the game another day with them graades
looking like baby.
Speaker 6 (50:53):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (50:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (50:55):
And that's what Ryan didn't explain, like you got it.
Speaker 7 (50:58):
You can't just say kids are trans the way he explained,
it sounds that like y'all thought the kids older, Yeah,
thought the kids.
Speaker 11 (51:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (51:04):
When you were talking about earlier, I thought that he
had an older kid.
Speaker 10 (51:07):
I was gonna say, damn Ryan in his late thirties,
mid thirties, how well we got a older kid. But
you know what I do want to say is I
hope he talks to her about it too, because she
is going to see that, you know what I'm saying.
And like mister show, when he said, uh, it looks
like he is calling her out, Like you know what
I'm saying, But you really talking about her mother?
Speaker 6 (51:28):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 10 (51:29):
But you're calling out your child. She only ten or eleven.
I hope he talks to her because she got to
see this too, Like damn, y'all was only ten eleven
and you you calling me out on the show.
Speaker 1 (51:37):
You mean, so, Floyd, what's up? Floyd talked to us?
Speaker 30 (51:40):
What is going on?
Speaker 6 (51:41):
Beautiful people?
Speaker 18 (51:43):
I say good morning to you guys. Listen.
Speaker 26 (51:46):
You know I held that Charlamagne. And theoretically, you're right.
We want to raise kids the way we.
Speaker 6 (51:53):
Were taught to be raised.
Speaker 18 (51:54):
These kids are like sponges.
Speaker 26 (51:56):
Now they're entitled to uh information at a quicker pace
than we were. They use what they had, They absorb everything,
and they use it to their advantage. We look at
like this situation with fifty cent and his son. His
son was entitled by his mother to want want fifty
(52:17):
is trying to teach him like you don't need it.
We get to a point now where everything that our
children see, they want, they want to have, they want
to utilize. Cut your son's Wi Fi off, your daughter's
wife file off and watch it go crazy.
Speaker 6 (52:31):
Yeah, but because I think that provided that for her. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (52:34):
But I think the difference is, you know, uh fifty,
explain to us how his son was being coached by
the mom, and Ryan would have said, like, the mom
is coaching the daughter to be transactional. That's different just
to say your kid's are transactional. No, And by the way,
there's everything is quote unquote transactional when you're dealing with
a child.
Speaker 1 (52:54):
But I also disagree with this, this gentleman just said.
And the reason I disagree is also how you raise
your kids.
Speaker 5 (52:59):
Right They my kids outside of the baby, because the
baby don't respect nothing right now, especially right now she
gets everything she wants. But outside of the baby, they
respect and they understand when dad or mom says no,
because we've taught them the same thing with the They
don't care about the If I.
Speaker 1 (53:14):
Say no, we have no Wi Fi, they no, there's
no Wi Fi. It is what it is.
Speaker 5 (53:19):
But that's that's because they were taught, They were disciplined.
They understand that things just don't come just because it's free.
Speaker 1 (53:25):
No, you have to earn.
Speaker 5 (53:26):
Things have to be earned to be and when you
do get it, you have to respect it and appreciate it.
Speaker 6 (53:31):
Outside of the baby.
Speaker 1 (53:32):
The baby right now, what is?
Speaker 7 (53:35):
And I disagree with that, brother, because kids are influenced
to want things because they're always being advertised that they're
on YouTube, if they're watching TV like you know.
Speaker 1 (53:45):
They're see their friends.
Speaker 7 (53:48):
Yes, there's always ads being pushed in and close.
Speaker 6 (53:51):
They don't care.
Speaker 9 (53:51):
It's food.
Speaker 6 (53:52):
I don't care if it's toys.
Speaker 7 (53:53):
They're always asking for things their kids, and it's up
to us as parents to be like, no, those are luxuries.
Speaker 1 (54:00):
Correct, not rights. Correct.
Speaker 6 (54:02):
So you do the right.
Speaker 7 (54:02):
Thing, meaning your chores, your homework and grades are good,
you you've got a great attitude.
Speaker 6 (54:08):
Then you'll get rewarded with your perfect example.
Speaker 1 (54:10):
You know what the little Stanley Muggs that came out
a couple years ago.
Speaker 5 (54:13):
There, every kid wanted this dumbest thing ever, right because
it got a straw and it could spill over, right,
but every kid wanted it.
Speaker 1 (54:18):
Now they got a new one.
Speaker 29 (54:20):
Why whatever it is now.
Speaker 1 (54:22):
The kids want this one. It's crazy.
Speaker 5 (54:23):
It's these marketing schemes to these kids. Ye all right,
Well when we come back, we got the latest with
Lawrence who don't go anywhere.
Speaker 1 (54:30):
It's the breakfast Club in the morning.
Speaker 6 (54:32):
You'll talk llll cool back.
Speaker 4 (54:34):
Yeah, I mean, I dumbing myself down. I'm being myself.
Speaker 10 (54:40):
I'm a home guy, knows a little bit about everything
and everything no brown girls, look.
Speaker 1 (54:45):
At you and I want to do like, take me
that the latest breakfast club.
Speaker 6 (54:54):
Coola talk to me.
Speaker 27 (54:58):
So Cardi B was lebrating, y'all can hear me? Okay?
We Cardi B was celebrating yesterday Stefan Diggs and his
win with the Patriots.
Speaker 4 (55:07):
They played, uh, the Houston Texans.
Speaker 27 (55:09):
And you know, normally she's at some of the games
when she can make it, uh, but she was live
and she was talking about, uh, you know, all the
things she's gonna do for him once he is finishing game.
But let's say a listen to her celebrating the touchdown,
nady squot.
Speaker 3 (55:21):
Wock, come down, welcome down, welcome down, Welcome down. At
the name of Jesus, Welcome down, welcome down.
Speaker 27 (55:35):
So then she talks about how she's gonna, you know,
cook for Bay once he gets home. Because they were
talking about you know, she was on Live with other
people and they were talking about what happens once the
game is over. Let's say a listen to Cardi on
cooking for stephan I cannot wait.
Speaker 6 (55:47):
Till see if Aspel as he come right out that door.
Speaker 4 (55:51):
So does he come in that door from Bond Now
a good meal.
Speaker 34 (55:56):
I'm that game some poor choptato.
Speaker 4 (56:01):
I bet you him a cake. All that one of
my mother.
Speaker 14 (56:05):
I'm making his bad all that I.
Speaker 1 (56:08):
Know that's right coding.
Speaker 35 (56:10):
And she did.
Speaker 27 (56:11):
She posted a video of him eating after the game,
and he was She had a spread.
Speaker 6 (56:15):
What she made?
Speaker 1 (56:16):
What she made?
Speaker 27 (56:17):
I saw, I think it was like barbecue chicken. I
saw some yems. I saw some mashed potatoes.
Speaker 1 (56:21):
Looked good.
Speaker 4 (56:21):
It looked really she cooked it. Yes, it looks really good.
Speaker 7 (56:24):
The Patriots is a staff record label and mother EFN
crew just coming from the Dallas Cowboy.
Speaker 1 (56:29):
Fan Okay, Giants fan too ship.
Speaker 7 (56:32):
And I'm just letting you know that pure that's pure
jealousy and pure envy because they are a great franchise.
And the reality of the situation is that was Cowboy
is an America's team, right. But if we were really
being honest, the Patriots would have to be an America's team
because there's.
Speaker 6 (56:46):
Such a winning franchise.
Speaker 1 (56:48):
The Patriots is so good, so long years. They had
six bad years, yeah, but then they came right back.
Speaker 6 (56:54):
Now it is a long time. How many years?
Speaker 1 (56:56):
The Dallas Cowboy has bad way too long, losing way
too long.
Speaker 7 (57:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (57:02):
And the Giants, well, you know, the Giants got to
the Super Bowls and y'all beat the Patriots twice.
Speaker 6 (57:08):
You know that's big.
Speaker 27 (57:09):
Yeah, So if they make it to the super Bowl,
that'll be February eighth, and Cardi B starts her Little
Miss Drama tour on February eleventh, so hopefully she'll be
able to make it to see Bay play crazy.
Speaker 1 (57:21):
In the Super Bowl. And then she pops out with
Bad But what because.
Speaker 27 (57:25):
Yeah, Bad Bunny credits her for, you know, helping his
career a lot, So that could be a thing that'll
be crazy.
Speaker 11 (57:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (57:32):
Wow, I think it's.
Speaker 27 (57:33):
Just because of, you know, the space that Cardi B
took up when she started doing like the international music.
But there's a moment where he brought card to be
out on stage and think to it, this was like
some years ago. I was just watching it over the
weekend because I saw that Bad Bunny's a trailer for
the super Bowl, like broke numbers, like viewership.
Speaker 1 (57:47):
Numbers or something like that.
Speaker 7 (57:49):
Yeah, I'm playing for the super Bowl. Know they do,
but you just know they do. Donald Trump is not
going to be upstairs by no Bad Bunny on February eight.
Speaker 4 (58:00):
No, I got at to say, I like it.
Speaker 1 (58:03):
A biggest record, one of the biggest records.
Speaker 25 (58:05):
Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 1 (58:07):
Hopefully we get to see that well.
Speaker 27 (58:08):
Speaking of other music news, over the weekend, Ludacris was
on a festival and then not on a festival because
people were upset. So I confirmed that Ludacris has pulled
out of Kid Rocks Country Music Festival. Now, this festival,
there was a full lineup of people, including Nelly, a
bunch of different country music artists. The festival is called
(58:28):
Rock the Country Celebration of two hundred and fifty years
of Freedom. Now, a lot of people feel like, because
it's a festival associated with Kare Rock, that this is
a Maga based festival and they were upset to see
Ludacris and Nelly on the lineup. This is not Nelly's
first time participating in the festival though, But I did
confirm that Ludacris because his name was taken off the
flyer after it was announced and people were like, wait,
(58:50):
so does this mean he's not on it? I confirmed
that he's not on it. But there was a statement
that was given by a wreck for Ludacris that said
that this was a mix mix up, lines got crossed.
Speaker 4 (58:59):
He was never supposed to be on the lineup.
Speaker 6 (59:01):
What makes it a maga festival?
Speaker 4 (59:03):
I think people just associated with that because of Kid Rock.
Speaker 1 (59:05):
Is a kid festival?

From what the Red has told Rolling Stone, Yes there

He's back on stage already. He did Lotus and Jersey,

So we're gonna get into it.
Speaker 5 (01:01:58):
Okay, all right, well, Charlamne, were getting that down, get you,
you know, fly after the hour.
Speaker 7 (01:02:01):
I'm conflicted, man, you know, because because sometimes people come
to me with Donkey of Today's suggestions and then I
see it and I'm like, I kind of see where
they ain't coming from. But I can see both sides
in this situation. So I want to open it up
for Breakfast Club Court and I'm a lay the case
out for y'all, and then we're gonna open up the
phone lines and decide who should get donkey today.
Speaker 1 (01:02:21):
All right, we'll get to that next. We got cute up.
All right, it's the breakfast luf, good morning, Donkey up today?
By damn he hogged.
Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
It's time for donkey, I mean, trying to be donkey today.
Speaker 29 (01:02:35):
No more.
Speaker 6 (01:02:35):
They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
not making these people do these days called donkey of
the day.
Speaker 1 (01:02:40):
And it really caught me off guard.
Speaker 10 (01:02:43):
Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of the day today?
Speaker 7 (01:02:47):
Well, just hilarious donkey to day for Tuesday, January twentieth.
Speaker 6 (01:02:50):
Has me very conflicted. Okay. Every now and then I
get a suggestion for Donkey of to Day, And.
Speaker 7 (01:02:54):
I'm like, I can see why you would want them
to get Donkey of to Day, but honestly I can
see why they shouldn't. Okay, we are gonna have to
take this one to Breakfast Club Court because I really
don't know if these folk should get the biggest he haul.
But today's potential donkey today is going to uh lukas Rakowski.
He's the owner of the Crystal Ballroom in Lake Mary, Florida. Now,
(01:03:15):
according to New six Orlando, ty Hinson and William Coney
was set to marry in May of this year at
the Crystal Ballroom and then sadly tragedy struck.
Speaker 6 (01:03:24):
Let's go to New six Orlando for the report.
Speaker 36 (01:03:26):
Police Crystal Ballroom here in Lake Mary is where ty
Hinson thought she'd be marrying her best friend this coming
spring when her fiance, William Coney, suddenly died just before Thanksgiving.
Henson says her wedding vendors voided all of their contracts
and gave back her money all, she says, except this one.
Speaker 18 (01:03:46):
This was like a cancelation.
Speaker 4 (01:03:47):
This was a person dying.
Speaker 35 (01:03:49):
Henson acknowledges she signed a non refundable contract with the
Crystal Ballroom of Lake mary Still, she assumed the company
would give back at least some of the seventy six
one hundred dollars she paid for the wedding venue.
Speaker 4 (01:04:03):
Her suggestion was, maybe you can do a memorial here
on the wedding day.
Speaker 21 (01:04:09):
And that even now.
Speaker 35 (01:04:11):
Sorry, The owner of the wedding venue encourages clients to
purchase third party cancellation insurance. In a statement, the company
says Crystal Ballroom has served thousands of couples over many years,
while also encountering a small number of illnesses, accidents, deaths,
military deployments, and other life events. These experiences shaped our
(01:04:32):
policies and procedures not to avoid responsibility, but to protect clients, vendors,
and the venue in a fair, transparent, and legally sound way.
Speaker 7 (01:04:43):
Ooh, first things first, rest in peace to William Coney,
died unexpectedly at the age of forty two from a
heart attack. This is why I encourage you all to
take your cardiovascular health serious. This is why I encourage
you all to go see doctor Puma and go get
a star and heart scan. Please, please, please, brothers, take
your cardiovascular health serious, because I'll I don't know if
it's the food, COVID, the vaccine stress, something as younger
(01:05:04):
people having heart attacks and strokes.
Speaker 6 (01:05:05):
So please take care of yourself.
Speaker 7 (01:05:07):
But this is why I get conflicted, because business is business,
and there is a reason venues take deposits. Okay, I
don't know the details of the contract. I don't know
the stipulations in the contract. Most contracts have a clause
for unforeseen, uncontrollable events. I think it's called the force
majure clause majure clause commonly known as the Act of
God clause. And I would think death would fall under that.
(01:05:30):
It's not like she just canceled for no reason. And
I would think a vinya would refund the deposit just
out of the kindness of their heart, even if they
legally didn't have to. And that is where the situation
gets perplexing for me, because I'm expecting me from other people. Okay,
I'm not saying I think Crystal Ballroom is wrong because
legally I don't believe they are.
Speaker 6 (01:05:47):
From a business perspective, they aren't at all.
Speaker 7 (01:05:50):
But from a human perspective, from a kindness perspective, they
could give tire break and give her the deposit back there.
I thought it was very cold to suggest to her
to do the memorial there. Sadly, the venue is thinking
about their bottom line. Okay, they don't want to miss
out on that seventy six hundred. That's a lot of money.
I get it, But damn, did you not have a
heart or does a heart matter? When a contract was
(01:06:11):
signed and business was done by the way? News six
Orlando confirmed that the contract states all payments are non refundable.
Speaker 6 (01:06:20):
Okay, But I agree with Ty Hinson.
Speaker 7 (01:06:22):
She said she understands the legal side, but there should
be space for compassion. Okay, Ty said, and I agree
with her wholeheartedly. My compassion is a human being carries
over into my business. But then I understand with the
venue owner lukox Rakowski is coming from, because he said
they are a full service venue that coordinates space, staffing, inventory,
(01:06:43):
and third party services months in advance and incurs costs
on a different timeline than individual vendors, and they said
that complex and unfortunate situations like death have shaped their
policies to be fair, transparent, and legally sound.
Speaker 6 (01:06:58):
He noted that these rules are reviewed.
Speaker 7 (01:07:01):
Before signing to avoid emotional or inconsistent decision making later.
Speaker 6 (01:07:07):
So where are we with this? I really see both
sides of this situation. I understand.
Speaker 7 (01:07:12):
But people want this owner Lukasprikowski and this venue to
get donkey of the day.
Speaker 6 (01:07:17):
So let's open up the phone lines. One hundred and
five five one. We gotta go to Breakfast Club Court.
Speaker 1 (01:07:24):
We gotta go to Breakfast Club Court.
Speaker 5 (01:07:25):
Now people are saying that this owner and this establishment
should have a heart. But also this is business. They
had to pay other people. They had to pay maybe
the florist, maybe the DJ.
Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
Maybe the sound maybe balloons, whatever, they had to pay.
A lot of that had to go out.
Speaker 5 (01:07:39):
And not only that, they heard these costs months in advance. Yes,
they booked these things out here as in advance. So
if you don't take this date, somebody else would have.
So they gave it to you. So it is what
it is. But what he did say was that person
should have got insurance. If you would have got insurance,
nothing would have happened.
Speaker 6 (01:07:57):
But I didn't hear that.
Speaker 1 (01:07:58):
That's what you you said. You said, should have got insurance.
That's what you said. I said that, Yes, I don't know,
I don't remember. Make that up. Insurance just in case something happened.
Speaker 6 (01:08:12):
No, he said, he said.
Speaker 7 (01:08:14):
The owner noted that these rules are reviewed before signing
to avoid emotional or inconsistent decision making later.
Speaker 1 (01:08:22):
If I heard. But anyway, that's the question. Eight hundred
five eight five one oh five one. Who's at fault?
Speaker 5 (01:08:26):
Who should get the donkey? Should it be the owner
of the establishment or not? Let's discuss eight hundred five
eight five one oh five one. It's the breakfast Club,
good morning.
Speaker 21 (01:08:41):
Let's say if you'all talking about it, you know we
talking about it.
Speaker 6 (01:08:46):
It's topic times called.
Speaker 21 (01:08:48):
Eight hundred five eight five one o five one to
join into the discussion with the breakfast Club morning.
Speaker 5 (01:08:53):
Everybody's DJ envyes hilarious. Charlamagne the guy we are the
Breakfast club. If he's just joining us, Charlomagne might or
might not give donkey the DAYA who man?
Speaker 7 (01:09:03):
Lou was his name, Lou kotts Rakowski is the owner
of the Crystal Ballroom in Lake Mary, Floyd. And I listen,
I could go either way with this. People suggest things
for me for donkey of today. Somebody suggested this to me,
and then I went to go look at the story,
and I was like, I don't know if this is
Donkey of the Day worthy, because what happened was sadly,
(01:09:23):
there was a couple who were supposed to get married
at the venue, Ty Henson and William Coney.
Speaker 6 (01:09:28):
They were supposed to.
Speaker 7 (01:09:28):
Get married in May of this year, but then William
died of a heart attack at forty two years old.
And so you know, Ty wants to get the seventy
six hundred that they put into the venue back, but
the vinue doesn't have to give the money back because
the contract, you know, says that they noted that these
rules are reviewed before signing to avoid emotional or inconsistent
(01:09:51):
decision making later.
Speaker 6 (01:09:53):
So they're not contractually obligated to give the money back.
Speaker 1 (01:09:56):
Right, But this is how I look at it. It
is sad, but yeah, that business is a business where they, you.
Speaker 5 (01:10:02):
Know, sell packages, weddings, baby showers, and if that date
wasn't taken by them, they could.
Speaker 1 (01:10:05):
Have sold it to another person, right, And and the.
Speaker 5 (01:10:08):
News reporters where I heard the trip insurance, but it's
like this, if you book a trip or vacation and
somebody passes away and you don't have trip insurance. If
you buy tickets to a football game, or if you
buy tickets to a basketball game, if something happens, you.
Speaker 1 (01:10:23):
Got to keep those tickets.
Speaker 7 (01:10:24):
But I will say there's one difference. The difference is
like this is a business, this is a venue, and
it's the owner of a venue that you can actually
pick up the phone and call. It's very hard to
do that with the trips. It's very hard to get
with trips. You're talking to an operator. With trips, you're
talking to you know.
Speaker 1 (01:10:42):
Trip insurance and if they and they tell you get trip,
get insurance just in case something happens.
Speaker 5 (01:10:48):
I also have to run a business meeting. I can't
continue to do this because I put money out. I
could have made money. This panther like, I made arrangements
to do this, and now that I don't, I lose
everything as well. And I also want to say it
is horrible, but his business, you know what I mean,
And you should have got the insurance so that way
he was coming true.
Speaker 6 (01:11:07):
And the owner puts some money into her goalfund me
as well to like five hundred.
Speaker 37 (01:11:10):
Dollars, want to put five to her goal for me,
And he said he just did that personally, Yeah, you know,
on behalf of his venue he just did that that person,
So clearly he feels bad about this situation.
Speaker 7 (01:11:21):
But you know, listen, man, I understand the legal side,
but I just wonder, like Ty Henson said, shouldn't there
be space for compassion? You know, Ty said, because ties
of cosmetologist. So she got her own business. She said,
my compassion is a human being carries over into my
my business. But you know, as the owner of the venue,
says Lucas Rokowski, he said, they're a full service venue
(01:11:42):
that coordinates space, staffing, inventory, and third party services months
in advance, and they incur costs on a different timeline
than individual vengers.
Speaker 1 (01:11:51):
So he's already spent some money, correct.
Speaker 5 (01:11:53):
Because they have to prepare the flowers, prepare balloons, prepared
table chairs, prepare sounds, prepare all that. So if I
had to put my help, should I have to lose?
Because yeah, you know what happened.
Speaker 10 (01:12:04):
And then she's a cosmetologist, so she got to look
at it like from a business standpoint as well. If
she's booked to do a wedding like a bridesmaids and
a bride or whatever, right, and they have a deposit
that they put down, say the wedding for whatever reason,
don't go through. Now does she give back her deposit?
Give back that deposit?
Speaker 7 (01:12:22):
Yeah, she said she actually has, she said, she says,
I understand contract. She says she wants issue to refund
to someone when a hurricane destroyed their home before their wedding.
And that's what she said. My compassion is the human
being carries over.
Speaker 1 (01:12:33):
Into my Sure, let's go to the form OMASI what's up, hey,
what's going on?
Speaker 6 (01:12:38):
Fellasi?
Speaker 1 (01:12:39):
What's your thoughts?
Speaker 6 (01:12:40):
Brother? All right?
Speaker 35 (01:12:41):
Man?
Speaker 18 (01:12:41):
So I said don't the other day. Should definitely go
to the defender.
Speaker 11 (01:12:46):
And the reason I may that is because I have
a building that I often run off the parties, receptions,
things of that nature. They should give the people they
deposited back because of the fact the venders that I
ill with will give me my deposits back because I
had to cancel on situations like that involving a death.
(01:13:09):
Now I do offer the cancelation insurance as well, but
that's for like hurricanes, bad weather. Somebody got to see
things like that. But definitely a death, you should definitely
give them people at least half of their money back
because I'm getting some of my money back from my fenders.
Speaker 6 (01:13:26):
That I deal with.
Speaker 7 (01:13:27):
I was thinking about what about keeping the cost you
incurred and then giving them the money back. You know
what I'm saying, if you got paid seventy six honey,
like because the venda said he already encouraged them costs.
Speaker 1 (01:13:37):
So if he had to run two thousand, paid the
two thousand.
Speaker 7 (01:13:40):
About how about get your money back of the cost
you and curb but didn't give her the rest of them?
Speaker 6 (01:13:43):
Right?
Speaker 18 (01:13:44):
I agree exactly that That's what I would do.
Speaker 30 (01:13:47):
I would you know what I then spent.
Speaker 11 (01:13:50):
I would eat for myself and say, well, I've encouraged
this cost.
Speaker 18 (01:13:54):
This is the balance of what you paid.
Speaker 24 (01:13:56):
Here you go.
Speaker 11 (01:13:57):
I hope you know my condolences to you and your
That's what I would.
Speaker 1 (01:14:01):
I think that's fair. If he wants to hello, who's
this wisdom? They wisdom gome on and talk to us.
Speaker 18 (01:14:07):
So I think that both of them should get a little.
Speaker 1 (01:14:09):
Bit of a donkey.
Speaker 6 (01:14:11):
You think I should?
Speaker 18 (01:14:13):
I think they both should just a little bit.
Speaker 24 (01:14:15):
Why well for the for the the brock.
Speaker 31 (01:14:19):
Anytime you book the.
Speaker 18 (01:14:21):
Thing for an event for any any type of thief,
do you make sure that you have to be insurance?
Speaker 6 (01:14:27):
I mean, if you book it something that's true.
Speaker 31 (01:14:29):
What if it means you want to be able to
happen and tructurally if it's a wedding, you gotta have
You gotta annoy your tea's course when it comes.
Speaker 6 (01:14:40):
To your wedding, right, that's true.
Speaker 5 (01:14:42):
The only thing your that is though, And I think
anybody knows planning a wedding, every dollar matters and every
dollar counts, right, And sometimes you're really stretching to pull
these weddings off, and you're praying that your guests give
you back some of that money to make your money back,
so they might not have had that to do that,
which is sad, you know.
Speaker 6 (01:14:58):
Yeah, the owner of the the.
Speaker 24 (01:15:01):
One, whether she was wed, if she was not, you're
still gonna have to be to ensure yourself side get in.
Speaker 1 (01:15:11):
Yeah, she said if it was an outdoor wady, but
the venue, whole video, the indoor hole.
Speaker 10 (01:15:14):
Yeah, why she didn't do the insurance, Yeah, saying I
don't know, I understand that serious, So I get what
she's saying.
Speaker 1 (01:15:20):
I just feel so bad for it. I don't want
to give her.
Speaker 10 (01:15:22):
I wouldn't give her even a little bit of donkey
because I know she agrieved. Right now, she's going through it.
But and she may not have been able to afford
the insurance because sometimes that's high as well.
Speaker 1 (01:15:32):
But I don't fault the venue either.
Speaker 32 (01:15:37):
Good morning.
Speaker 8 (01:15:38):
This was the west out of Atlanta.
Speaker 6 (01:15:40):
West what I'm turning?
Speaker 24 (01:15:41):
Oh yeah, it's the west side of Atlanta. I really
she should.
Speaker 8 (01:15:44):
Get done the to day because people going to the
contrast willy thinking that all what that won't happen to me?
And then when it happens, you know that if they
want somebody to have compassion and billings for them, which
is understandable, but that company probably had already took losses
from having compassion for people before they come over with
their new rules of regulation for what they do their things,
(01:16:05):
the way they.
Speaker 5 (01:16:05):
Do, that's what the owners I mean, yeah, yeah, and
I know you know that's why contracts are signed.
Speaker 1 (01:16:11):
Contracts are signed to protect really both parties depending on
what happens. And yeah, I mean.
Speaker 5 (01:16:16):
It's tough, it's horrible, it's nasty, it's disgusting, but but
it is business.
Speaker 1 (01:16:19):
It's business. Thank you, brother?
Speaker 6 (01:16:21):
Hello, who's this? What's up?
Speaker 1 (01:16:25):
What's your thoughts?
Speaker 26 (01:16:26):
I definitely think my man ship, the owner of that venue,
should give her some of that money back.
Speaker 37 (01:16:30):
I definitely understand that he has said other venues and
advance like.
Speaker 18 (01:16:34):
Deposits for DJ Cooks.
Speaker 26 (01:16:37):
Okay, subtract those deposits he made and give her the
rest of the money back.
Speaker 8 (01:16:41):
It's only right.
Speaker 26 (01:16:42):
They'll make it visual of right, So I think definitely
give me.
Speaker 6 (01:16:45):
Some of the money back.
Speaker 1 (01:16:46):
Okay. Yeah, if it was me, I would have. I
was the owner, you know, because they said they already
had to incur some costs.
Speaker 7 (01:16:51):
Whatever the cost word that you already had to incur,
you take that and then you give her the rest
of the money.
Speaker 1 (01:16:56):
Hello, who's this.
Speaker 16 (01:16:59):
From Jerry?
Speaker 1 (01:17:01):
So what's your thoughts?
Speaker 11 (01:17:03):
So Mormon, I.
Speaker 38 (01:17:04):
Definitely as an event space owner, I definitely think it's
the client's put reading a fundamental and unfortunately a lot
of people just don't read their contract properly. Yes, we
still have compassion, but we do have games that are
playing but east today at someone's books an event. So
I created a payment protection kind of like a flight protection.
If you don't pay for the payment protection, unfortunately, you
(01:17:26):
willership deposit.
Speaker 6 (01:17:28):
And I want people to know.
Speaker 7 (01:17:29):
Tali is a cosmetologist as well, so she says she
completely understands business but she also understands the legal side,
and she said that they should just be space for compassion.
She said her compassion as a human being carries over
into her business. And she also gave an example of
how she gave She issued a refunded someone when a
hurricane destroyed their home before their wedding.
Speaker 8 (01:17:50):
Right.
Speaker 5 (01:17:50):
But also, if I own a business, and I'm telling
you take the insuranceell because it protects me and you, Right,
So if this does happen, I still get paid, You
still get paid, You can get your money back. And
if I'm telling you to do that and you don't
do it and then something horribly happens, how does it
fall back on the business owner? Because he has bills,
he has expenses, he has to pay for a mortgage
(01:18:11):
or or whatever it may be.
Speaker 10 (01:18:12):
I mean, she probably just didn't, you know, think, oh
my god, my husband, my fiance is going to pass away.
Although anything else could have happened. You need that insurance
for protection from any and everything. But she just didn't,
you know, And.
Speaker 1 (01:18:24):
Then she probably couldn't afford it, depending on how much
the insurance was.
Speaker 5 (01:18:28):
Even when I took a trip somewhere, Right, if I
book a trip locally, I don't get that insurance.
Speaker 1 (01:18:32):
Yeah, if I go somewhere where it's cost to me
a lot, I definitely get.
Speaker 6 (01:18:35):
It just in case everything, even their line ticket.
Speaker 7 (01:18:38):
Like, people don't ever check that little box, that little box,
you know, if it's local, ywhere, if it's in the US,
I won't.
Speaker 6 (01:18:45):
But if it's I do him everywhere, everywhere, international and US. Hell, yeah,
you just never know.
Speaker 30 (01:18:50):
You just never know.
Speaker 1 (01:18:51):
Yeah, all right, Well, what's the morrow little story?
Speaker 6 (01:18:53):
I think we gotta hung jury.
Speaker 7 (01:18:55):
I mean we gotta hung jury because it seems like
people will understand both sides. I don't think we were
giving her donkey of the day in no way, shape
or phone, because I don't think it was her.
Speaker 6 (01:19:04):
Fault, and I don't think it's the venue's fault.
Speaker 10 (01:19:06):
I don't feel like anybody it's just a it's just anituation,
you know.
Speaker 1 (01:19:10):
I don't think anybody deserves donkey.
Speaker 7 (01:19:12):
Now, what I would say if I was, like I've
been saying it all morning, if I was a business owner,
whatever cost I have already incurred, I'll take my money
from that, and I would give her the rest back
just out of the goodness of my heart. And I
just feel like, not only is that good business, just
as a human being, that's the right thing to do.
Speaker 5 (01:19:30):
But even if he doesn't, it's like, you know, it's
all right, well, we got the Latest with Lauren coming up,
so don't move.
Speaker 1 (01:19:37):
It's the breakfast club in the morning. M becoming a
straight fast she gets somebody was a little bit about everything.
Speaker 6 (01:19:48):
She be having the latest on.
Speaker 1 (01:19:51):
The latest with Lauren la Rosa.
Speaker 6 (01:19:53):
Sometimes you have sometimes you have details. Sometimes you have
a little bit of everything on the breakfast clouds.
Speaker 4 (01:20:00):
Some days that's what happened. Why y'all say that the
word I missed it, I was put my maraphones.
Speaker 6 (01:20:04):
Taylor Drop was loud as hell. She just bullguarded in.
Speaker 4 (01:20:08):
She deserves it. She do a great job.
Speaker 27 (01:20:11):
Real quick, before we get into this hobura, I want
to say send a rest in peace to Valentino Garvani.
I know I said his last name wrong, that is
my best pronunciation. But he's one of the found the
founders of Valentino, which is the couture fashion brand that
was founded back in the nineteen sixties. He passed away
over the weekend at age ninety three. So I wanted
to say resting peace to him.
Speaker 6 (01:20:32):
That's long life.
Speaker 4 (01:20:34):
You know, Valentino the clothing brand.
Speaker 27 (01:20:36):
Yeah, if I show you it, because you know, he
don't really be like yeah that, but yeah, if I
show you it, you you'll recognize the emblem of the brand.
Speaker 4 (01:20:45):
But yeah.
Speaker 27 (01:20:46):
So in other news, as we move forward, Lamar odom
over the weekend, was arrested for a d u I
in Las Vegas.
Speaker 8 (01:20:54):
Uh.
Speaker 27 (01:20:55):
Yeah, he was arrested in booked for driver under the
influence after he was pulled over early Saturday morning.
Speaker 4 (01:21:00):
The incident is still under investigation. He's no longer in custody.
Speaker 1 (01:21:03):
Doesn't he have rehab centers though?
Speaker 27 (01:21:04):
So that was a conversation at one point about him
having rehab centers, but it ended prior to his DUI arrests.
His former manager he was opening up centers to help
people get through different addictions.
Speaker 6 (01:21:17):
So give him some grades, what you mean.
Speaker 25 (01:21:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 27 (01:21:23):
From twenty twenty three to twenty twenty five, Lamar Oldham
owned Oldham Recovery Group, which was a marketing company for
rehab senior living in dental He never started a business.
But there's another guy that they're talking about, two guys,
Dante or Martinez. In fact, this is a statement from
his manager. They opened Oldham Wellness Treatment Centers as an
LLC in early twenty twenty three without Lamar on it,
and Lamar's attorneys had it closed by May of twenty
(01:21:45):
twenty three when it came to Lamar's attention, So all
of that was basically done before all this has happened.
People started to talk about that, the fact that he's
been pulled over for this DUI and he owned c
rehab center. So they came out and clarified that he
you know that, and that partnership is officially over.
Speaker 6 (01:22:01):
Rehab is not linear, right, Yes, it's still a form
of healing.
Speaker 4 (01:22:05):
Yes, very much.
Speaker 10 (01:22:06):
And if you're fighting with something like that, you're fighting.
I imagine you're fighting every day, you know what I
mean to You're fighting against all of that.
Speaker 7 (01:22:13):
Though, because I did not like drunk drivers, because drunk
drivers are very responsible and you know, you can get
on the road and end up killing somebody.
Speaker 5 (01:22:18):
And the sad part is I'm sure he wasn't by himself,
so somebody had to see him drinking, know he was
having a fight with alcoholism and all that other stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:22:25):
She'd have said, Nah, don't do that.
Speaker 27 (01:22:27):
Yeah, drive, yes, but I mean, here we are, you know,
spin portal on the suspicion, so we'll have.
Speaker 7 (01:22:33):
To driving under the influence is wild in twenty twenty
six when you got Uber and Lyft.
Speaker 10 (01:22:38):
Has so many actions, so many ways that you don't
have to drive under the influence.
Speaker 27 (01:22:43):
And the crazy thing too is he was cited for
driving more than forty one miles per hour over the limit,
and then there was an improper lane change and failure
to maintain a lane that police said that they noticed.
So it's kind of like, you know, not only are
you drive under the influence, but you're going so fast
that you know, like someone's going to see you and
stop you, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (01:23:00):
Yeah, so we'll be following that definite.
Speaker 1 (01:23:03):
Damn.
Speaker 4 (01:23:04):
I should have sent it to you.
Speaker 30 (01:23:05):
My bad.
Speaker 10 (01:23:06):
All right, Thank god nobody he didn't get so when accident,
nobody got killed.
Speaker 1 (01:23:10):
He didn't get killed.
Speaker 4 (01:23:11):
Yes, yes, one hundred percent.
Speaker 13 (01:23:14):
Uh.
Speaker 27 (01:23:14):
Now, in other news, Mary J. Blige, she is on
what was on seven PM in Brooklyn. She's promoting, uh,
you know, her new residency in Vegas, and she's having
a conversation about unreleased music and music in general, and
she talks about a time where she there's a song
that she wanted to release with jay Z, but because
it was leaked, she couldn't release it.
Speaker 4 (01:23:33):
Let's take a listen to Mary J. Blige on jay
Z song.
Speaker 7 (01:23:35):
Are there any songs in the vault and your vault
of music of making music that never came out that
you're like, damn, I wish this song.
Speaker 6 (01:23:43):
When it came out.
Speaker 34 (01:23:44):
YEP, I was playing one the other day, and this
one actually has whole warning, That's all I'm gonna say.
Speaker 1 (01:23:49):
And it's it's a monster to the record.
Speaker 14 (01:24:00):
We were young, when we were younger, you know, we
was amp recording that record.
Speaker 34 (01:24:04):
Okay, I'm not going to say who it was because
I don't want somebody to come back, but somebody leaked
it and.
Speaker 14 (01:24:09):
Then we could and then we couldn't do nothing anything.
Speaker 34 (01:24:12):
With it because then HO was like then, you know,
he was felt disrespected that someone from my session had
leaked it.
Speaker 6 (01:24:19):
What record was leaked? The mixtape?
Speaker 30 (01:24:22):
Guy?
Speaker 6 (01:24:22):
So what record was that?
Speaker 1 (01:24:24):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:24:25):
So when I looked it up, I saw that.
Speaker 27 (01:24:27):
Back in two thousand and three, when she was doing
her Loving Life album, there was supposed to be rock
study by DJ Clue that was supposed to be on
the project, and people say that that was leaked and
that that might be the song. But then but then
I saw people reporting this as if this is a
new song that we haven't heard, that only the well
not only believe.
Speaker 35 (01:24:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 27 (01:24:46):
I mean so I don't really know for sure which
or what she's referring to, but she says it's a
good one. And they did talk about, like, you know,
whether they could ever come to terms where it could
be like remix and mastered and maybe Jaz would let
her up.
Speaker 4 (01:24:58):
Yeah, she said, you know, it's it's kind of his car.
Speaker 27 (01:25:00):
But then she also talked about talking to speaking of
jay Z Umbrella, Rihanna's song that was like you know,
one of her big breakout hits on her Good Girl
Going Bad album, was supposed to be for Mary J.
Speaker 4 (01:25:10):
Blige, but she said, no, I didn't want to do it.
Let's take listen to that.
Speaker 1 (01:25:13):
What's that one song on one Beat that got away
from you?
Speaker 34 (01:25:16):
So it was during the breakthrough album and Be Without
You was on fire and the whole album was on fire,
and I was nominated for eight Grammys, and Dream and
Tricky came to me with Umbrella. All of her was it,
And I was like, yeah, my fans is a little bug.
I want me to hear me take my eight. So
I was like, I got a lot going on. I'm
gonna pass.
Speaker 14 (01:25:35):
Then when I heard Rihanna do it, I was like,
see it was.
Speaker 4 (01:25:39):
It wasn't for me.
Speaker 34 (01:25:40):
I'm not afraid to pass on something that's not for me.
It got away, it got away, but it wasn't for
me in the first place.
Speaker 1 (01:25:47):
That record is not for Mary.
Speaker 27 (01:25:49):
Yeah, and the story goes they took it to Britney Spears,
then they took it to Mary J.
Speaker 4 (01:25:54):
Blige, and then it ended up with Rihanna.
Speaker 1 (01:25:56):
That's how that happened before Rainy Days was supposed to
be for tc JO.
Speaker 6 (01:25:59):
Yah.
Speaker 4 (01:26:01):
Yeah, I feel like that happens for a lot of artists.
Speaker 6 (01:26:03):
I think you got to know yourself.
Speaker 4 (01:26:04):
You got to know what you Yeah, because I can't
imagine her on that.
Speaker 1 (01:26:09):
It's like perfect.
Speaker 6 (01:26:10):
Just because Mary did it didn't didn't mean it would
turn into a hit the way out.
Speaker 4 (01:26:14):
