No it was. It was an easy driving.

Speaker 6 (00:43):
You know.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
It's funny.

Speaker 7 (00:44):
I was talking to Art, which is one of the
producers up here, and I was asking how to get
to work. Was it easy for him because he rides
the city biking? And he said that the mayor.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
He rises the city bikes, Oh so bad.

Speaker 4 (00:54):
Crazy.

Speaker 7 (00:54):
He said that the mayor gave kids thirty dollars an
hour just to shovel snow, so he said, all the
bike lanes shovels, he said, all the walkway pedestrian walkways
with shovels. So he was like, it was an easy
ride in.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Is it true that you have to show you how
I needed shovel snow. I saw that as well.

Speaker 7 (01:08):
Oh wow, that is so sad, But now it makes sense.
I mean, I love the fact that pain is thats
fired to shovel of snow.

Speaker 8 (01:15):
I think that's pretty dope. You know, shovel of snow lame.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
I'm glad these kids want to shovel snow to make
some goddamn money.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
I was concerned every time. Every time I see the
snow drop. All I think is go get your shovel
and go get some get some money. Did you have
to shovel your your gate to shovel I did. I
was after shoveling it yesterday too.

Speaker 8 (01:31):
I learned my lesson from the first one left, the right, left,
the right open.

Speaker 4 (01:35):
Yep.

Speaker 5 (01:35):
I know these New York City kids love damn man.

Speaker 7 (01:38):
Well yeah yeah, he calling them telling them they got
snow days.

You ain't got to go to school.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Virtually the money.

Speaker 5 (01:48):
What the kids?

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Yes? If no tax? My thirty dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
The differencetween going house to house and getting that tax
freak cash in your hand. Yeah, as a pulls gam
and to wait for a checking invoice and net thirty
probably net sixty.

Speaker 5 (02:03):
That's what I was thinking. He was giving him cash.

Speaker 7 (02:05):
Oh dang, do you think the mayor's walking around with
cash here and get anybody?

Speaker 9 (02:09):
No?

Speaker 7 (02:10):
Nah, they got the W nine, W two's all that stuff. No,
they couldn't tax for that. All right, Well, me and
me would be breaking down. The people are mad at
the mayor right now, and I'm sure me and me
will be breaking it down. There was a snowball fight,
well really it was a one sided snowball fight. The
police were walking and they decided to hit the police
officers with all types of snow.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
The way in New York City for those of us
who may be listening to us in other places talking
about New York. Yeah, you know, because we are nationally
syndicated morning show.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
Yeah, snow in Florida, snow in Miami for me, and
people were breaking down.

Speaker 5 (02:43):
What are they talking Aboutmore and Baltimore?

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Who hit Brandon? Dummy?

Speaker 7 (02:47):
And when we come back, we got front page news.
Of course, Donald Trump did the State of the Union
address last night?

Speaker 2 (02:53):
That you guys see it?

Speaker 8 (02:53):
Did you watch it?

Speaker 2 (02:55):
I stayed up, but then I had to go to sleep.
I had to tap out. It was just it was
it was way.

Speaker 8 (02:58):
Too They said it was the longest one ever.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah, he wanted it. I passed out. He got me
last night, Ya fell asleep?

Speaker 7 (03:03):
All right, All right, let's start the show with some
Wu Tangs. Power Man Power was one of the founders
of Wu Tang, one of the people that funded it
early on.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
You can arguably say there would be no Wu Tang
if it wasn't for Power. That's right.

Speaker 8 (03:18):
So let's get some war on this morning. It's the
Breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Good morning. You still feel that record in your soul
and your spirit right now?

Speaker 9 (03:25):
Rest.

Speaker 10 (03:26):
My mother used to get mad at my father for
bumping this through the house like loud early Saturday morning,
because she'd be trying to play out Anita Baker.

Speaker 5 (03:33):
So we clean up the stuff my father bump Wu
Tang throughout the house.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
Is different, two different types of soul.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
It's still all sold music, right, all right, Well, let's
get in some front page news.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
What's uping to me?

Speaker 11 (03:46):
Good morning? V Jess charlamage, how y'all doing this morning?
Good morning, Good morning. So we start this morning with
the State of the Union, that marathon address from President
Trump that lasted an hour and forty eight minutes, setting
a record as longest speech in modern history. Now he
opened by declaring our nation is back, calling his first
year a transformation like no one has ever seen, even

(04:09):
as new poll numbers show just thirty nine percent of
Americans approve of his job performance. Now Throughout the speech,
he painted a picture of progress, saying the border is secure,
inflation is falling, incomes are rising, and the stock market
is at record highs now he argued that retirement accounts
are up, gas prices are down, and America is respected again,

(04:29):
a critics say many families, though, they still don't feel
that relief in their everyday builds. And the President also
declared that he has ended DEI in America, pointing to
executive orders shutting down diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
Let's listen to some of that.

Speaker 12 (04:45):
We ended di in America. We cut a record number
of job killing regulations, and in one year, we have
lifted two point four million Americans a record off of
food stamp.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
That's not a good thing. I like, I don't know
why he said that, like that was a good thing.
People need their food stamps.

Speaker 11 (05:08):
People definitely need the help, absolutely, and we learned that
during the government shutdown. The first one on trade, Trump
express or address last week's Supreme Court ruling that struck
down most of his tariffs, calling it unfortunate and vowing
to move forward under other legal authorities, saying that he
does not need Congress to do so.

Speaker 5 (05:27):
He also pushed the Save Act.

Speaker 11 (05:28):
Which we've been talking about, arguing that those who oppose
voter ID laws are trying to weaken election safeguards.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Let's listen to that, and.

Speaker 12 (05:37):
Perhaps most importantly, I'm asking you to approve the Save
America Act.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
And the reason they don't want to do it.

Speaker 12 (05:45):
Why would anybody not want voter.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
ID One reason, because they want to cheat. There's only
one reason.

Speaker 12 (05:52):
They make up all excuses, they say it's racist, they
come up with things, you almost say, what imagination they have.

Speaker 13 (06:00):
They want to cheat, They have cheated, and their policy
is so bad that the only way they can get
elected is to cheat.

Speaker 8 (06:07):
And we're going to stop it.

Speaker 11 (06:10):
Well, we've been talking about the same America Act we
know that it will disproportionately disenfranchise about twenty one million
voters who don't have access to their birth certificate, marriage
changes on their marriage license, or their driver's license, and
so critics are also pushing back on that one. The
President Trump he announced what he is calling war on Fraud.

(06:31):
He offered few specifics, but suggested the effort could uncover
enough waste and abuse in government programs to help balance
the national budget. Let's listen to what he's talking about
when he says war on fraud.

Speaker 12 (06:41):
But when it comes to the corruption that is plunging, really,
there's been no more stunning example than Minnesota. The members
of the Somali community have pillaged and estimated nineteen billion
dollars from the American taxpayer.

Speaker 14 (06:56):
We have all the information.

Speaker 12 (06:58):
And in actuality the number is much higher than that
in California, Massachusetts, main and many other states are even worse.
So tonight I'm officially announcing the War on Fraud, to
be led by our great Vice President JD.

Speaker 14 (07:14):
Vence.

Speaker 5 (07:16):
Yes.

Speaker 11 (07:17):
So, also, he talked about immigration, which quickly became one
of the most heated moments of the night. So after
President Trump called on lawmakers to stand if they agreed
that the government's duty is to protect American citizens, not
illegal aliens.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Democratic Revs.

Speaker 11 (07:32):
Ilhan Omar and Rashida Talib, they shouted from the chamber,
a sparking a tense back and forth moment.

Speaker 5 (07:38):
Let's listen to that.

Speaker 12 (07:40):
In that shame, you should be ashamed of yourself not
standing up.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
You should be ashamed of yourself.

Speaker 12 (07:47):
That is why I'm also asking you to end deadly
sanctuary cities.

Speaker 13 (07:52):
That protect the criminals and enact.

Speaker 12 (07:55):
Serious penalties for public.

Speaker 13 (07:57):
Officials who blocked the removal of criminal al in many cases,
drug lords, murderers all over our country. They're blocking the
removal of these people out of our country, and you
should be ashamed of your saying.

Speaker 3 (08:12):
I was thinking about that as I was watching it
last night. If you were there as a Democrat, do
you stand when you agree with certain things, like when
he says things like, you know, we we want to
keep a legal aliens out?

Speaker 2 (08:21):
You know stand if you agree?

Speaker 3 (08:22):
Do you stand in that moment because you know you
want you know, you want to keep a legal aliens out.

Speaker 11 (08:28):
I think it's about everything about that is like party right,
So at that point, even if you do agree with it.
You stay seated because you're trying to make a bigger
point in that moment.

Speaker 5 (08:38):
That's you know what I mean, you.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
Sit the whole time. If you're gonna sit during the
majority of it, you just sit the whole time. You
can clap in applause.

Speaker 7 (08:44):
Because even when he brought out the hockey team and
say congratulations to the hockey team.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
They want to go medal. Some Democrats stood up, but
most of them sat down and just applow it.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
Yeah, I mean a lot of that stuff was performative anyway.
And to be honest with you, none of the rhetoric
matters because I don't think people care about anything else
he was talking about except for the economy. So I
don't care how long this speech wastes. I don't care
action speak out it in words, and he told us
that he would have the economy fixed on day one. Meanwhile,
people out here hurting. I think that's what folks cared about.

Speaker 5 (09:10):
Yeah, for sure, I'm in another moment.

Speaker 11 (09:12):
Congressman Al Green he was escorted out after he held
up a sign that said black people aren't apes. He
was referencing that video that the president held or that
he reposted of the Obamas, and as you mentioned, there
was a lighter moment with the US hockey team, and
he also awarded two medals of Honor. During the speech,
he talked about no tax on tips, American made cars,

(09:33):
He renewed his calls in the partial government shutdown, and
he warned Iran about nuclear weapons and declared that America
is entering what he calls a golden age.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
So when is it gonna get golden that?

Speaker 3 (09:45):
There have to be nothing more infuriating, and watching the
president tell you that the economy is good when you're broke,
you know what I'm saying, When you barely get in by,
when you barely keeping food on your table, when you
barely paying your rent like that has to be infuriating,
especially when he told you that he was going to
fix everything on day one.

Speaker 7 (10:00):
And I had a question with the Medal of Freedom, right,
it's the highest civilian honor. What else did the goalie
do besides playing Olympics. I was confused because you know,
he's with Muhammad Ali that you know was an activist
he was, he's with the You know, Michael Jordan has
given so much money back. I was just curious to
what he has done because all he said was just
stop all the goals, but he didn't say what he

(10:20):
did outside all the goals.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Yeah, because he was a goalie. I don't know, but I.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
Know I know whoever that person is just pissed off
at you right now. He's like, can you get your
bumbes out there and do it? Try to stop some
I'm just getting in the goal. I'm just did stop
some gold.

Speaker 7 (10:34):
Just asking because all the all the other athletes that
are you know, got dis awarded. There's other reasons for
not just sports.

Speaker 11 (10:41):
I know what you mean by that. V I was
a little confused by that one as well. I don't
know other than what.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
You're saying, the goalies, the fact you're trying to make
sense of anything Donald Trump does his mind.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
The fact that's the answer to the question, because it's
Donald Trump, That's.

Speaker 8 (10:54):
What you're right pretty much.

Speaker 11 (10:57):
All right, Well that is the six, am alur I
got seven. We're gonna talk about what you were talking about, envy,
that snowball fight that is now maybe leading to possible arrests.
We're gonna talk about it and see what people are saying.

Speaker 8 (11:08):
Yes, did you see him describe the gold?

Speaker 2 (11:10):
He was like you look right, you put the gold
behind your back and you stopped it. And I asked
him to the bloody planet and he says, I'm not
telling you. Oh that was like, what the hell?

Speaker 5 (11:19):
I might have him excited? Things fast?

Speaker 7 (11:22):

You gotta add context of things if you can't just
be a black, old Dominican person screaming straight off the boat.
Was on a cruise. I was the forward cruise and

(19:13):
from Miami, and she's backing.

Speaker 8 (19:15):
Off the boat.

Speaker 5 (19:16):
I mean, I am off of a boat. But I
understand what you're trying to say.

Speaker 8 (19:19):
Black, though I don't know what they're saying. Continue on,
welcome back, thank you, And.

Speaker 5 (19:23):
You're stuck to as soon as they docked, they were stuck.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
That is crazy.

Speaker 5 (19:27):
We were sun didn't you say you're stuck?

Speaker 4 (19:28):
No, I wasn't suck.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
Because of the snowstorm.

Speaker 19 (19:33):
Yeah, that's what I was stuck in Miami. Yes, Oh no,
I thought you mean I was stuck on the boat.
I'm like, no, I got off it off getting stuck nowhere. Okay, Well,
good morning guys.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
Hey you go what I don't want to be stuck
on that trying to defend yourself to your boyfriend.

Speaker 19 (19:49):
Right, because that was one of my biggest fears, is
if something happened on the boat, because it was like
a little storm and we was rocking on the scale.

Speaker 5 (19:57):
Continue right, all right, because it's just sugar focusing.

Speaker 19 (19:59):
So I this morning, I heard you guys talking about
power from Wu Tang, so I did want to take yeah,
rest and peace of power. I did want to take
a minute to just talk a little bit about him.
Oliver Power Grant, who was one of the founding members
of Wu Tang and the creator of the.

Speaker 5 (20:12):
Wouwear line, he passed away. He died on February twenty third.

Speaker 19 (20:17):
At this point, no cause of death has been reported
to the media, but I did see method man posts.
He posted a photo of the two of them and
his caption says, paradise my brother, Save travels bru.

Speaker 5 (20:27):
I am not okay.

Speaker 19 (20:30):
Power wasn't a performing member of the Wu Tang, but
he helped shape their commercial success. He in the early
days was a big part of the financial backing of
the group, helping a secure studio time and just helping
build like a business infrastructure that allowed Wu Tang Claim
to maintain the big, huge level of success that they did.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
You could argue that they would probably be no Wu
Tang if it wasn't for power.

Speaker 5 (20:51):
I literally, yes, I agree with that. I told Brandon
that this morning.

Speaker 19 (20:55):
Yeah, so I just wanted to make sure that you know,
we took that time to say rest in peace to
him type of hour. And yeah, and speaking of Wu Tang,

I don't know.

Speaker 3 (22:05):
It's not about not wanting people to be in the
rock and roll Hall of Famous, about taking rock and
roll off and just letting it be the music Hall
of Fame.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Look at all those diverse people name.

Speaker 5 (22:13):
Yeah, I can feel that.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
How's that rock and roll?

Speaker 22 (22:16):
Even?

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Tell me the rock and roll artist on that list?

Speaker 19 (22:18):
Uh, Oasis, the Black Crows, Jeff Buckley, basically everybody.

Speaker 5 (22:23):
I probably don't know.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
I don't even know. I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know. I'm just I don't even know.

Speaker 16 (22:28):
I did my list.

Speaker 19 (22:28):
I was like us and then the others, and then
at the side of the others, I put the people
that we know, like Pink and you know whatever. But yes,
congratulations to them and they will be more there and
then ending the hour, I wanted to mention, I know
yesterday we talked about BAFTA and everybody's go to talking
about John Davison. Uh, he did another interview and he's
saying now that he's actually trying to reach out to
Michael B. Jordan and Del Rolando directly to apologize. So

(22:52):
we'll see if that happens stuff During his interview, it
was written, I would have played it.

Speaker 7 (23:00):
Wondering like even if he called them to apologize, like
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Because you know, by the way, that is another reason
why he shouldn't be at the award show because if
I can't pick up the phone to call you to apologize,
could imagine that apologies.

Speaker 19 (23:22):
Well, also, did y'all see did you see that Google
had to apologize to No. So Google had to apologize
around this situation as well, because when they sent out
the alert about the news article, the N word was
in the alert.

Speaker 9 (23:33):
It was.

Speaker 19 (23:35):
I saw reports of it. I haven't heard it, but
I saw reports of the apology so.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
On niggas. Yeah, I don't know it was really I
saw that, but I.

Speaker 19 (23:47):
Didn't raised So according to like Deadline Forbes, all outlets
are reporting that that was a real thing that happened
and that they had to come back and apologize.

Speaker 5 (23:55):
Yeah, so that's the latest for the first hour.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Guys.

Speaker 5 (23:58):
We'll be back with the more our latest when.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
We come back. And by the way, I just want
to say Google into everybody else, stop letting AI do
your work.

Speaker 8 (24:06):
For that's that's exactly exactly what happened.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
That was a AI generated post and that's why it
said that stop letting AI do your work for you.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
As I'm talking our digital department too.

Speaker 7 (24:17):
By the way, all right, when we come back, we
got front page news, so don't go anywhere as to
breakfast club. Good morning, morning, everybody is DJ n V
Jess hilarious, Charlamagne the God.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
We are to breakfast club. Let's get back to some
front page news. What's uping me?

Speaker 11 (24:30):
Good morning, envy Je Charlamage, how y'all doing this morning?

Speaker 5 (24:34):
Good morning.

Speaker 11 (24:35):
So we start this hour in Florida, where a case
about parental responsibility is making national headlines. So a sixty
nine year old father, he's been sentenced to more than
thirty seven years in prison after prosecutors say he allowed
his unlicensed fifteen year old son to drive, a decision
that ended in a crash that killed three children and
their grandmother. Investigators say the team ran a stop sign,

(24:58):
he was driving eighty miles per hour in a thirty
mile per hour zone before slamming into another vehicle. Now,
during the trial, the children's mother took the stand and
delivered an emotional statement, Let's listen.

Speaker 24 (25:10):
There's absolutely no human experience that replicates the pain of
a mother losing a child, and I lost three. I
will miss out on every experience a parent should not
have to miss out on. They should have been burying me.

Speaker 11 (25:28):
Now, a jury found the father guilty of manslaughter by
culpable negligence, essentially ruling that his decision to let his
son drive set the tragedy in motion. So the father,
who has stage four prostate cancer, apologizing court and says
he lives with constant grief.

Speaker 5 (25:46):
Let's listen to that.

Speaker 16 (25:47):
I must speak these words from the deepest place in
my heart.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
I am afile.

Speaker 4 (25:53):
Sorry.

Speaker 16 (25:54):
This stratetory did not just take lives, it shattered families.

Speaker 5 (25:59):
Dang, So it's gonna happen to the little boy. You're
gonna get his ass locked up? Or what was going on?

Speaker 9 (26:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (26:04):
So good question, Jess.

Speaker 11 (26:05):
During the sentencing, the judge said that the devastating loss
of one family justified the punishment beyond the minimum. So
that teen driver, though, as you were just asking, he's
in juvenile custody.

Speaker 5 (26:17):
He took a plea deal.

Speaker 11 (26:18):
So he was fifteen at the time this happened in
twenty twenty three. The sentencing just happened. So he's now seventeen.
But he will get out when he's nineteen years old.

Speaker 5 (26:27):
So just in a couple of days install it.

Speaker 10 (26:29):
They just stall it out until he eighteen, because then
he'll they don't get more time.

Speaker 5 (26:33):
Right.

Speaker 7 (26:33):
The sad thing is, but he was fifteen and his
dad allowed him to drive, you know what I mean?
And even though he's still a kid, and I don't
know why the father allowed him to drive. Did they
say that he was he going to get the father's medicine?
Was it something important or.

Speaker 5 (26:46):
Was it just like not doing eighty and a thirty?

Speaker 2 (26:48):
I mean, regardless, is horrible because.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
He could have killed him and his far for too
like you know what I mean, Yeah, I get some
very very sad story. Go ahead, Jess.

Speaker 10 (26:57):
I just think both of them need to suffer some
type of I mean, I know he in his full
stage of fried state cancer, but I mean, like that's
full lives, loss, three kids, and somebody's grandmother, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 11 (27:09):
Well, he's essentially seventy years old, so he is most
likely going to die behind bars with a sentence of
thirty plus years. Yeahs story, very very sad story. And
this next story could have ripple effects for companies across
the country. So the EEOC they are suing Coca Cola Beverages,
accusing the company of sex discrimination over a women only

(27:33):
networking event. So the outcome it could reshape how corporations
handle employee programs. So, according to the lawsuit, about two
hundred and fifty female employees, they were invited to a
two day company paid networking trip in Connecticut, they were
excused from work, and they were paid their regular wages.
No mail employees were invited, So a mail production worker

(27:54):
he filed the complaint saying that he would have attended
if he were if he were given the opportunity. And
EEOC they're arguing that excluding men, even from an event
designed to support women, violates federal workplace discrimination laws.

Speaker 5 (28:08):
So Coca Cola, they.

Speaker 11 (28:09):
Have not publicly detailed its legal response, and the case
is now before a federal court in New Hampshire. But
while this case it centers on Coca Cola, the ruling
could determine whether companies across the country can legally host
these kinds of networking events and professional programs, or whether
doing so will now open them up to federal discrimination cases.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
Now, who is this fraggle maggot?

Speaker 3 (28:31):
I mean, god, Like, why would you be upset that
women are deciding to have their own type of bonding
event at work? I would have went if I was invited.
I'm sure you would have, but you wasn't. Okay, what's
wrong with that? Crazy like that don't even make no sense?

Speaker 14 (28:47):
Like, God, damn, yeah?

Speaker 2 (28:49):
Was he was he something? Did he identify as a woman?

Speaker 5 (28:53):
No, he identified as a man.

Speaker 11 (28:54):
He just said, you know, men were excluded and and
that's not fair.

Speaker 5 (28:58):
So they you know, come, these can't do that. You
can't have female retreats, you can't just go party.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
But you know whatever, even if you identify as a woman,
I would tell I would still tell them city that
down somewhere.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
But that's that's ridiculous. And by the way, the reason
they don't do men only retreats because they don't know
a bunch of men want to be around each other
like that without no women. That's crazy.

Speaker 10 (29:20):
It ain't no such thing as an all male fellowship
event with y'all. You know, y'all come together, y'all empower,
you know, board.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
And stuff like that. One No, man, No, I need
to be around some women that I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
I passed. Like you know how Lauren just went on
that boat rival or women. I couldn't see myself going
on a boat ride with the men's crews.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
I'm saying, there's nothing, there's nothing appeeling about that. Wow,
is this not?

Speaker 3 (29:47):
And don't get me wrong, you know it's good when
you're with your your guys and y'all no bonding. But
after why I need to get home to your wife. Man,
y'all want to go to an event. Let's go to
a game, Let's see some sports like.

Speaker 5 (29:59):
I can't nah on the radio, damn hilarious. Okay.

Speaker 11 (30:07):
And so lastly, moving on, we're going to turn to
that snowball gate. That's what people online are calling it,
the snowball gate. So what started as a viral snow
day meet up in Washington Square Park has now turned
into a citywide debate over where winter fun ends and
crossing the line begins. So the snowball fight, it was
promoted on Instagram. Hundreds showed up after the blizzard there

(30:28):
in New York City. So at first it looked like,
you know, pure New York energy, laughter cameras out there
were snowballs flying, and then things escalated. So video shows
NYPD officers walking through the park as snowballs started flying
towards them. Police say several officers were hit in the
face and the head, suffering cuts and bruises, and at
one point officers they pulled out pepper spray and a

(30:51):
taser as the crowd, they say, grew more aggressive. And
so now police are investigating and they have released photos
of two people that are wanted for assault. NYPD Commissioner
Jessica Tish she called the scene disgraceful and criminal. And
Governor Capi Hochl, she says, it's never acceptable to throw
anything at police. But Mayor Montdammie, he is striking a
different tone. Let's listen to what he had to say.

Speaker 6 (31:12):
I've seen videos of kids throwing snowballs and members of
the NYPD in Washington Square.

Speaker 14 (31:17):
Park officers have.

Speaker 6 (31:18):
Been on the front line of helping our city respond
to this blizzard. They have been keeping New Yorker safe.
They and our entire city workforce deserve to be treated
with respect. The only person in our city's workforce who
deserves to be treated with a snowball is me. From
the videos that I've seen, it looks like a snowball fight.

Speaker 4 (31:37):
No, it don't.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Yes, I mean, snowball fights are fun. It takes two
to have a snowball fight. But police officers honestly should
have just started doing snowballs.

Speaker 5 (31:47):
I just couldn't just throw them back.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
I mean, that's what it was.

Speaker 7 (31:50):
I mean, I mean, because when you get it with snowballs, especially,
you don't know if it's if it's snowballs, if it's ice, if.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
It's idiot hurt.

Speaker 10 (31:57):
You should have started doing a damn yeah, like y'all
stronger than the kids.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
I mean, that actually would have been a good moment
for the community to bond, you know what I'm saying.
They start throwing snowballs back, they chasing each other like
that would have been kind of dope.

Speaker 7 (32:10):
Not when I'm wearing my uniform and I got to
do eight hours in this ship, and the whole circa wet.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
You've been a kid before you had a snowball fight
with other kids that would have got, would have got.
They could have had some fun with it.

Speaker 4 (32:24):
Not get it.

Speaker 3 (32:24):
But if if you'd have told me that they put
a battery in the snow and do it at them
and stuff, I get it.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
But they could have had some fun with it, not
leading to arrestue.

Speaker 11 (32:32):
Yeah, so that's just how you guys are talking about this.
Some people say the reaction is overblown, and some people say,
you know, officers should relax and have a little bit
of fun. But least say they are now reviewing the
video and there is an ongoing investigation.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
Ongoing investigation, you get restum kids for that. That's crazy for.

Speaker 5 (32:52):
A snowball fight.

Speaker 11 (32:53):
So we'll see.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
All right, Well that is your front page news.

Speaker 22 (32:56):
I Mimi Brown.

Speaker 11 (32:57):
Follow me at MEI Brown TV. For more story, call
the Black Information Network or visit binnews dot com.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
Pease me me all right, thank you, Mimi.

Speaker 7 (33:05):
Now let's open up the phone lines eight hundred and
five eight five one oh five one. One of our
digital producers in the back came up with this topic. Uh,
And she was asking is it cool to wish your
ex a happy birthday?

Speaker 22 (33:16):
Now?

Speaker 7 (33:16):
She got it from Miss Jackson. You know, Miss Jackson
used to date Floyd Maywell. She posted a picture of
Floyd with no shirt on and said happy birthday. Now
we're asking, is it okay? Like, would you wish your
ex a happy birthday?

Speaker 5 (33:28):
Just now listen? It depends on the type of X,
because yes, I wish my baby father had your birthday.
All the time I've thrown wrong parties like but that
is my son's father.

Speaker 10 (33:38):
Just a different dynamic than what people usually see between
a baby MOhm and a baby dad.

Speaker 7 (33:43):
But yeah, so you would wish a random X happy
birthday and text, and you wouldn't be mad if Chris
hit a random Max and just said happy birthday, random?

Speaker 5 (33:52):
Yeah, I would be what random Max Jackson and Floyd kids, No,
they don't no, but no, all right now, look I
work up here, y'all know it's my job to get
out the happy birthday. So if it's Country Raine birthday.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
You would not wish, You would not wishing, but happy
birthday would skip over that one. I would out.

Speaker 5 (34:12):
I mean, I don't hate the brother I don't you
know what I'm saying. So it's like happy birthday whatever, whatever.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
I'm Chris, I'm mad at you've even shoting at out
right now.

Speaker 10 (34:19):
We're having a conversation about why, out of all the exits.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
Why I'm just saying.

Speaker 5 (34:27):
And then it's it's a possibility that I that we
may run into each other. He may come up here
for an interview, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
But I also don't know miss Jackson and Floyd's relationship.

Speaker 7 (34:36):
But but but we can take it out of him.
That's what she got it from. Well, let's take it
away from them. But is it cool to wish your
ex a happy birthday? That is the question eight hundred
five on five when I say, hell now, but let's
talk about it.

Speaker 8 (34:47):
It's a breakfast slogan.

Speaker 4 (34:47):
Morning, y'all talking about it? You know, we talking about it.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
It's to TI called eight hundred five five one five
one to join into the discussion with the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (35:05):
Morning, everybody.

Speaker 7 (35:06):
It's j NV, just hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are
the Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we're
opening up the phone lines eight hundred five A five
one oh five one, one of my digital producers, asked,
is it cool to wish your ex a happy birthday?

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Now?

Speaker 8 (35:21):
This comes from a post that she's seen.

Speaker 7 (35:23):
Chantel Jackson was saying on Miss Jackson on Instagram was
saying happy birthday to her ex, which was Floyd Maywebber
posted a picture of him with no shirt on. So
we're asking, is that okay? I say, X xcent unless
you have a baby with him. Nah, there's no reason
to go back in time.

Speaker 10 (35:38):
I mean, now, are they both in relationships? I think
if they're both single, I mean it's no problem. You
know what I mean, because I'm talking about Chantel and Floyd. Right,
if they both single, all right, cool because basically what
that is is a hey, big head?

Speaker 2 (35:51):
Yeah, is a flirt or they.

Speaker 10 (35:52):
Already if they're not already getting back together or smashing
or whatever.

Speaker 7 (35:56):
You take it outside of them, just all right, just
having an X Is it okay to wish X a
happy birthday?

Speaker 5 (36:01):
It depends, y'all. I told y'all, like my son's father,
me and.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Rome, we do things.

Speaker 5 (36:07):
But like we we get each other gifts. You know
what I'm saying.

Speaker 10 (36:10):
I do them a party before like he you know,
we show up for each other for all holidays.

Speaker 5 (36:15):
So yeah, that's an ex though.

Speaker 7 (36:17):
But I never thought that was a problem if you
have kids with somebody, right, Like people were saying that
Offset bought Cardi b flowers right, that man has what
four kids?

Speaker 2 (36:24):
Yes, it's Valentine's Day. You send flowers from the kids,
wouldn't you. Yeah, from the kids, from the kids, you
know what I mean? When you send flowers from the kids, like,
it doesn't that make sense? The kids can't afford it,
they ain't got no credit card, so you send flowers
from you know, I've never seen nothing be a problem.

Speaker 5 (36:39):
Yeah, No, I ain't never seen it to be a
problem though.

Speaker 10 (36:41):
But if you're in a relationship and being as though
they just got you know, they just they were just
together and it was it was a little crazy with them,
you know what I mean. So I get if Cardy
boyfriend or Offset had a girlfriend who would feel a
certain way, like why you send how flowers that you
know y'all just went through this public y'all just you know,
this breakup And I don't know, But yeah, I mean,
like I said, it depends me and my son father.

Speaker 5 (37:01):
We're close. We think of Steve's boys. So yeah, happy
birthday every years?

Speaker 16 (37:05):
Wrong?

Speaker 3 (37:07):
I mean, it's a broad question. Jess's right, you know,
it depends. There's a lot of nuance to it. I mean,
if your ex is your baby father baby mother, fine,
Other than that, I don't see why you would still
be in constant communication with your ex. I don't see
why you would still be close to your ex. I mean,
I don't, you know, Like I don't even I mean
that's why I don't even like.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
Using examples like of Floyd Mayweather and Miss Jackson, because
I don't know their relationship.

Speaker 8 (37:30):
That's just take it outside of them.

Speaker 3 (37:32):
I mean, so I don't I don't know. But if
you just ask me generally, yes, is it okay to
with's your ex? Happy birthday?

Speaker 6 (37:37):
No?

Speaker 4 (37:38):
Like, why.

Speaker 10 (37:41):
Y'all don't have exes? We don't y'all been married to
show with kids. But if we did, why you know
what I'm saying, Like, what would be the reason?

Speaker 2 (37:47):
What's the connection? Did we almost die in a plane
crash together?

Speaker 9 (37:51):
Like?

Speaker 2 (37:51):
Think I'm there? Like we were? We did we escape
a burning building together?

Speaker 25 (37:55):
Like?

Speaker 2 (37:55):
What would be the reason for us to still have
a bond if we ain't got no charing?

Speaker 4 (37:59):
Hello?

Speaker 16 (38:00):
Is this is there Bear the trucker, Good morning one
of my beautiful black people.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
What's your thoughts? Is it okay to with your exavvy birthday?

Speaker 20 (38:10):
It's really depends on maturity, honestly.

Speaker 9 (38:13):
One.

Speaker 20 (38:13):
I think if y'all and on good terms and you're
able to maintain a good friendship, then yeah it's okay.
But both people have to be and and uh like
in un to see with that decision, because some people
hold on the past relationships just to still have that
door open, and it kind of handles you from your

(38:34):
current or if you're not even in a relationship, from
getting into a next relationship. And then secondly, people don't
know how to be friends. People don't know how to
be genuine friends these days. So when you find general friendship,
it's hard to hold on to and you must hold
on to it. I had one of my ex recently.
I dropped trucks and stuff and she's a you know,

(38:54):
HR manager for Home Healthy and we try to maintain
a friendship. She was like, Yo, if you want anybody
need a job, you know, just let me know and
use I'm cparently hiring people. Well, I'm having a baby.
My baby's doing April and one of my sisters.

Speaker 16 (39:12):
She reached out.

Speaker 20 (39:12):
She was like, oh, I just moved back to the city,
and do you know anybody that's hiring. And I sent
her a text, you know, asking her if my sister
could come and work with her. She never responded. So
I realized that, you know, me having a baby and
progressing in my relationship wasn't part of her playing.

Speaker 10 (39:29):
Yes, she still was trying to leave that door open,
you know what I mean. But congratulations, Yeah, yeah, when
your baby coming.

Speaker 20 (39:35):
I appreciate You'll appreciate jet I really do.

Speaker 25 (39:42):
Hello.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
What's this I? What's your name?

Speaker 4 (39:44):
In my mind?

Speaker 18 (39:45):
Can you hear me?

Speaker 2 (39:46):
Okay, we can hear you. What's your name?

Speaker 26 (39:48):
Canisha to me?

Speaker 2 (39:49):
Is it okay? To with your ex? Happy birthday?

Speaker 6 (39:53):
With the key?

Speaker 5 (39:53):
Dang?

Speaker 2 (39:55):
Is it okay?

Speaker 26 (39:56):
Oh my god, I'm just wait a minute.

Speaker 24 (39:57):
First.

Speaker 26 (39:58):
I want to just say I love you. I love
your wife and Jess and Charlamagne is definitely the best.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
Appreciate you.

Speaker 9 (40:09):
I listen to you every day.

Speaker 26 (40:11):
I don't even answer my sister, she lives in Georgia
sometimes like I gotta wait so after the donkey, because
I can't miss nothing.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
You don't really like her for show.

Speaker 26 (40:22):
But anyway, I think it's okay as long as you
are on good terms not to be like spiteful or anything.
Just try to interrupt anybody else's life. I think it's
okay to wish them a happy birthday. Why, I'm like JESF,
I have kids with my children's fathers. Yeah, not really.
You want to wish birthdays are important. It means you

(40:45):
know that people are important. They have life and it's
not promised these days. So you want to wish everybody good,
good future endeavor.

Speaker 10 (40:56):
And then everybody don't end off like everybody'll have bad breakups,
you know what I'm saying. So if you can still
maintain a friendship with somebody that you used to be
with and the lines are blurred, nobody has intimate feelings
or anything like that, it should be cool.

Speaker 7 (41:09):
So ma'am, you would go to an ex's funeral too,
most definitely a couple of excess funerals. I go to
go down to say good by to make Yeah, just amazing, Christ,
thank you mama.

Speaker 5 (41:21):

you know, similar to something situation.

Speaker 3 (43:14):
Just then, man, But the family, man, but that's different.
Once again, if you have kids, I completely understand. You
shouldn't even say X. You should say baby father baby mother,
like we shouldn't say the differ between an ex and
a baby father and a baby mother because they're still family.

Speaker 4 (43:28):
Yes, well what charl it don't matter.

Speaker 25 (43:30):

it's a status thing to me, Like if I'm single
and I just want to post happy birthday, it's.

Speaker 16 (44:39):
Okay, I'm ana post.

Speaker 20 (44:40):
But if I'm in a relationship, it then because I

And I know I wouldn't want my you know, my
partner to do it, so I wouldn't do it.

Speaker 14 (44:51):

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Man? Hello, who's this yo?

Speaker 16 (44:55):

Speaker 4 (44:57):
What's hardening talk to us?

Speaker 8 (44:59):
Is it cool to what's your ex? Happy birthday?

Speaker 2 (45:02):
Man?

Speaker 18 (45:03):
To a certain extent, man, it's the way it should
be done, man, Like I mean, of course, just you know,
in your situation. You know, your dude gonna deal with
that because he, damn it, ain't got no choice but
to deal with that.

Speaker 2 (45:16):
But uh, I feel like average, that's a hard working
Mexican man.

Speaker 4 (45:20):
That man got.

Speaker 2 (45:22):
Money. Hey hey all right, yeah, hey, let's let you
all tell it.

Speaker 18 (45:28):
But you know, I feel like, no, that's the way
it should be done, like like social media and everything,
posting it everywhere. No, you feel me after a while
and when we lock in, you know you gotta.

Speaker 20 (45:39):
Cut that down a little bit.

Speaker 18 (45:40):
But yeah, no, like you know, to a certain extent, Gee,
you feel me like, you know.

Speaker 16 (45:46):
But hey, but dig though?

Speaker 4 (45:48):
Can I can I?

Speaker 20 (45:49):
Can I speak on something that's real quick?

Speaker 2 (45:51):
Yes, sir.

Speaker 18 (45:52):
Hey, I'm a working man. I work atty Man, and
I feel like it's like a KH twenty two with
some of them things like you know, with that at
a suing of I feel like they got to show
that the men just as you know, like if you
letting women off what they pay. And I'm not trying
to sound like no, no suck, I'm just I'm just
speaking fairness. You feel me like if you don't let

(46:13):
them off.

Speaker 7 (46:14):
Because you gotta context test people so earlier Mimi reported
that a guy was suing because it was all women's
meeting conference and the men weren't allowed.

Speaker 3 (46:23):
So I guess Coca Cola the Equalims Women Opportunity to
Commission fied the federal lawsuit against Coca Cola Beverages because
of a workplace event that was all women.

Speaker 2 (46:31):
There's a guy suing saying that it was a discrimination.

Speaker 7 (46:34):
Now, this gentleman said he works in Pepsi. He said
he would be upset. Go ahead, brother, now now I wouldn't.

Speaker 16 (46:38):
I wouldn't sue.

Speaker 18 (46:39):
You feel, which is one of them things is like
you know, you know men sometimes and like I say, brother,
you know, we get to shorten understick sometimes. So I
feel like it just got to be a fair thing.
I mean, if you're gonna show them so little, you
gotta do the same thing and.

Speaker 20 (46:53):
Have let the men get off and you're paying all
that too.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
You feel me, you know as well as I do.
That guy just trying to hit a lick. That guy
saw that.

Speaker 27 (47:04):
The job.

Speaker 5 (47:04):
Don't take it out on the women, like you know,
go I.

Speaker 16 (47:06):
Mean, and that's what he's doing.

Speaker 18 (47:08):
I mean, it's being broadcasted like he's taking it out
on women, but actually he's showing the company, you feel me.

Speaker 20 (47:13):
It ain't like he you know, showing and showing the women.
He's just showing the company.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
You know, it's crazy.

Speaker 10 (47:18):
Why not just go to the HR office and say,
can we do something for the men like you know,
because we need our retreat to We need you know,
to mental space where you know, a space where we
can just vent and let out.

Speaker 5 (47:30):
Hay, you know what I'm saying, and we just.

Speaker 4 (47:34):
Shut up.

Speaker 16 (47:37):
I dig it.

Speaker 2 (47:37):
But who to say he ain't?

Speaker 4 (47:39):
Did that?

Speaker 9 (47:39):
You feel me?

Speaker 25 (47:40):
You know.

Speaker 18 (47:42):
A different way?

Speaker 2 (47:47):
No, no, no, no, no, have a good day. But
I don't know what I don't know.

Speaker 3 (47:53):
But you brought up a good point earlier when he
said that if you imagine being posting on social media
to your ex have be born day.

Speaker 2 (48:00):
I'm not doing it, and ain't not. Now all your
people looking like that shorty actually wishing such and such
her ex happy birthday on social media? You having problems?

Speaker 4 (48:08):
No, I'm not.

Speaker 10 (48:08):
I'm not not doing all that. It's just saying happy
birthday is different. Hitting the person's every birthday is different
than texting them. Now, I mean then posting them that's crazy?

Speaker 2 (48:18):
Yes, all right, Well that's the moral of the story.

Speaker 7 (48:20):
All right, when we come back, we got the latest
with Laurence. It don't go anywhere. It's the breakfast stuff
come morning.

Speaker 2 (48:25):
Hey, that's the world's most danger morning to show to
Breakfast club. You know we didn't do last latest, Lauren,
what did we do?

Speaker 6 (48:31):
What?

Speaker 3 (48:31):
You didn't tell people to go to vote dot rockhaul
dot com. You announced the nomin man for the twenty
twenty six Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, talked the
Wu Tang Clan, New.

Speaker 2 (48:42):
Edition, Shad Day, Mariah Carrey, Luthor Van Dras. But they
have a thing called a fan boat.

Speaker 3 (48:48):
You can go to vote dot Rockhall dot com right
now and you can do a fan vote for the
twenty twenty six inductions. And the reason I thought about
that because somebody send it to me right now. And
New Addition does not have enough votes, neither Plan. Okay,
the Black Crows at the Oasis and Iron Maiden and
the others. Phil Collins are leading all the votes right now.

(49:10):
Lutha and Shadday and Wu Tang and Mariah and Lauren
Hill and New Edition they at the bottom.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
Yeah, they should be, they should be leading.

Speaker 3 (49:17):
Go to vote dot Rockhall dot com right now and
vote for the twenty twenty six Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame.

Speaker 8 (49:23):
That's right, Well, let's get to the latest with Lauren.

Speaker 2 (49:26):
You'll talk ll cool back.

Speaker 5 (49:27):
Yeah, I mean not dumbing myself down. I'm being myself.
I'm the home guy that knows a little bit about
everything and everything the little brown girls look at you,
and I want to be like you.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
Take me through that, Take me through that gone the latest,
Take me on the breakfast club.

Speaker 19 (49:47):
L cool Back, talk to me so real quick mention,
I'm at the top of this latest. Fans noticed yesterday
that jay Z's wealth went up, so via Forbes, he
is now jay Z is now listed at two point
eight billion dollars net worth.

Speaker 22 (50:05):
Now.

Speaker 19 (50:05):
Last year on Forbes Black Billionaire's List, jay Z was
number ten, with Oprah and several others above him, but
listed at two point five billion.

Speaker 5 (50:14):
But as of today, and they've been updating.

Speaker 19 (50:16):
The last time I checked this this morning, it was
as of it was updated on February twentieth. But as
of today, February twenty fifth, his network has went up
two point eight billion dollars. And I want to mention
that that Black Billionaires list in the Forbes Black and
the Forbes Billionaires List will be coming out sometime around
March and April. We had Jabbar Young up here who
was talking to us about the list, who is the
senior writer at Forbes, who will be contributing to that.

Speaker 5 (50:39):
So take a look out for that.

Speaker 2 (50:40):
Better worry about your own bank account. Looking at other people,
checking out, see what it is.

Speaker 5 (50:46):
People know, people aren't people.

Speaker 19 (50:48):
I didn't know that there were people that like sat
and did this daily professional, but I got you, no listen.

Speaker 5 (50:56):
I was so interested. I called Jabart this morning. I'm like, hey,
good morning.

Speaker 19 (50:58):
I know it's pretty early, but he said it into
the office and I'm like, I saw this morning at
like six am that it said as of one date
and now it says as of another. And he explained it,
and I'm like, oh, I could literally just refresh, refresh, refreshed.

Speaker 5 (51:09):
I would do. It's inspiring, inspiring.

Speaker 2 (51:13):
It's aspiring.

Speaker 8 (51:14):
Yes, it was inspiring a long time ago.

Speaker 5 (51:17):
I'm still inspired.

Speaker 19 (51:18):
We were having a conversation about if artists today could
achieve this because and still be as like out the
way as jay z is, because you have to be
so forward facing and social media facing.

Speaker 2 (51:27):
Now.

Speaker 5 (51:28):
Before we came one hundred percent. You mean, watch his
packet like the stock market.

Speaker 2 (51:33):
They are crazy.

Speaker 19 (51:33):
Congratulations, congratulations, all right now shifting gears. So yesterday Mace
Cameron and Treasure Wilson were on It Is What It
Is and they were having a conversation about sports and critiques,
and they had a conversation about Treasure Wilson asked the
question to the room about a time when someone critiqued
you and you couldn't really.

Speaker 5 (51:54):
Like let it go. And Mace brought up Charlemagne and
some of his critiques, say listen to Mace.

Speaker 28 (51:59):
So it's it seemed like every time something came up,
Charlamagne would just talk about my name, like just going
a negative direction. I didn't know what was the connection
that we had, but it just seemed like he always
had a negative take about me.

Speaker 4 (52:14):
I never met this guy.

Speaker 2 (52:16):
I don't think we've crossed path.

Speaker 28 (52:18):
So I remember one time I called DJ MB and
I was like, yo, if somebody's consistently talking about you,
And at that time I had no music out, you know,
I had nothing out for you to keep talking about me.
It's when you personally make it your business to tear
somebody down, that's when it's a problem. They're not doing

(52:38):
anything in the public that merits the number one show
in the country to be talking about this person, right,
if they're not hot, you shouldn't even be talking about
it because it's not relevant to the show. I would
sit there and be like, why does this guy just
keep talking about me?

Speaker 5 (52:57):
That is so crazy.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
I know you better shut up. I know you ain't
about to start talking about people.

Speaker 16 (53:02):
Talking about it. I don't.

Speaker 8 (53:03):
I don't think Mace called me, but Mace, I think
May stepped to me at Club Live.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
One night. We were at Club Live and he was
very upset about Charlemagne continue to talk about him, and we.

Speaker 8 (53:12):
Had a conversation. I told him, will come on this show.

Speaker 7 (53:14):
I mean, you went from a pastor to a gangst
a rapper, and everybody has questions, and until you answer
those questions, I'm sure everybody's gonna critique you. But he
definitely stepped to me at Club Live, and then that
weekend he ran into Charlemagne too.

Speaker 19 (53:26):
I'm not saying it's just because I'm sitting here with you,
but I watched you on Blad and your critique of
him like going from the church, and I thought it
was fair.

Speaker 5 (53:33):
I mean you are a straight shooter.

Speaker 2 (53:34):
That was a nice one. Yeah, used to go in
Oh it was the same time. Listen, Mason, isn't it wrong?

Speaker 3 (53:40):
But why do any of us critique anything, Like if
you're a sports pundent, if you're a political pundent, if
you're a hip hop pundit, any any type of pundit,
then you discuss things that are going on in the world.
So my commentary on Mace back then, it wasn't anything personal,
you know, yea like and you just said he was
trying to get back in the rap after being a pastor.
And then there was a debate because I said Mace
wasn't top five bad boy lyricists.

Speaker 8 (54:02):
That was crazy.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
I don't know why you said that.

Speaker 19 (54:05):
Hip hop convos definite conversation happening on threads yesterday about
the fact that you said that and people thought that
that was crazy and that that was that's.

Speaker 2 (54:12):
Crazy at all. Yeah, he's definitely crazy. Your top five
bad bad boy lyricists.

Speaker 3 (54:18):
Yeah, Biggie Small, Big Shada, kiss Ye, Styles, Chic, and
black Rock.

Speaker 8 (54:24):
I would put Mason that top five, But who take
off probably Black Broth.

Speaker 7 (54:30):
Why Mace is busy? Like Mace Mace gets busy. I know,
we look at Mason we here being around the world. Yeah,
he does those records, but Mace is lyrically, he gets busy.

Speaker 2 (54:40):
Get busy. I'm not saying he does one of the
best storytellers hip hop definitely is. But I wouldn't take
Mace out of that kind. Now, we said, what if
we say top bad boy artist of all time, Mace's
two or three.

Speaker 7 (54:51):
But I think when you talk about lyrics, I think
you talk about Mace. Mace was one of the original
punchline kings. Mace gets busy and you can't take that
from Mace. I don't care if if you don't like
his dance and been around the world and all the
jiggy stuff he used to do. But lyrically makes me
get busy.

Speaker 3 (55:03):
But once again, what is the point of talking about
any of these things. It's because we talk, yeah, conversation.

Speaker 8 (55:13):
But I told that when I see him, I said,
he needs to come here and talk.

Speaker 7 (55:15):
I mean, because you can't go from being a pastor
and your preaching in the church and then all of
a sudden you're putting out gangster raps.

Speaker 8 (55:21):
It just didn't make sense.

Speaker 7 (55:22):
And he explained it, and we just wanted to know
that was That was my same conversation when when Sean
came up here. When you're political, I'm never doing those
type of music again, and then all of a sudden,
I'm doing the show.

Speaker 5 (55:31):
It just I'm just asking.

Speaker 2 (55:32):
I just want to know, like, but what if you
get busy? And that he did get busy. By the way. Also, though,
I think we've learned in life that you know, that's
and flows like people people, people can do things and
then go change that.

Speaker 3 (55:43):
All that is that is absolutely positively okay too. But
back then, back then I didn't understand that concept.

Speaker 2 (55:51):
Yes, but even that, as journalists we can ask the question.

Speaker 5 (55:54):
We can ask the question, you can't ask the question.

Speaker 19 (55:58):
I think what it is is Charlotte Maine's voice echoed
so loudly in the sticks because I'm telling you, people
brought up comments you made about Mace from like years ago.

Speaker 5 (56:06):
In the comments I had to go find like I
just searched YouTube, like.

Speaker 2 (56:09):
By words entertain don't get it twisted. You were crazy?

Speaker 20 (56:13):
You were?

Speaker 17 (56:15):
I kept.

Speaker 5 (56:17):
You were you were a sharp shooter. I kept it
real cute.

Speaker 7 (56:19):
Look, Charlamage was a nasty pre front a nasty crazy.
What do you remember, like you do remember what he
used to say about Drake? You called him something princess
like you can still princess when Drake sent about it.
I think that's a compliment a pretty out vinyl princess.

Speaker 5 (56:37):
Yeah, he's not a girl, grown man, grown man.

Speaker 2 (56:40):
Yes, Now you see why the drugging bomb for Mace. Okay,
Mason Cam are doing that thing with it.

Speaker 9 (56:47):
It is what it is.

Speaker 3 (56:48):
You see when you see Mason Cam together, that looks
like what they're supposed to be doing like that. Mace
looks like he's supposed to be right there with this guy,
you know, talking about sports.

Speaker 2 (56:59):
I salute them and I seens a couple of months
ago on the plane and I was like, you come
to and show you and he kind of was like, nah,
by the way, But now I understand what I want
to say. One other thing too, That is the other
thing that you know.

Speaker 3 (57:08):
That's just why I don't be having a lot of
respect for this generation because all y'all do is sit
behind microphones and talk talk talking, chat chat chat.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
Y'all don't ever see nobody. Me and Ma's definitely ran
in each other club or some right.

Speaker 7 (57:19):
It was in Miami restaurant, okay, and they don't get
makes pulled me to the side of the club, is
Rocky pulled me to the side and had that conversation.

Speaker 2 (57:26):
The next day he ran in Charlotment. Yes, yes, it
was a running okay, like what's up?

Speaker 9 (57:31):
You know?

Speaker 3 (57:32):
So it's like, I don't think that you're sitting behind
these microphones chatting, running your and somebody not going to
run into you. That's why I don't be respecting this era,
because we actually had to see people, and when you
saw people, you had to stand on the same you
better have that same energy.

Speaker 5 (57:46):
And that's one thing about Leonard Laurie McKelvey. He got
too far to stand up, you know, shut up.

Speaker 2 (57:55):
Had a great man's had a conversation and has had
a great conversation.

Speaker 19 (57:58):
And I think it makes you better at what you
do to when you actually had those runnings, but also
when you've had people critiquing you. And I respect Mats
for saying that in this as well, like he makes
sure his critiques a wrong point because he knows how
it feels to be critique Pariott period.

Speaker 7 (58:09):
That is the latest All right, Scheana maage, who are
giving that down, Kay two boy, after the hour, we
need a young woman who needs some critique.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
Okay. Her name is. Her name is Lashaana Williams. She
needs to come to the front of the congregation.

Speaker 3 (58:20):
She's from Concord, North Carolina, and then is going to
trigger you if you have.

Speaker 8 (58:25):
Kids, we'll discuss, all right, we'll get to that nexus
to the breakfast club.

Speaker 2 (58:28):
Good morning, say the gang, don't get shine. You are
a don't It's time for don't kiss to day. Donkey
of Today does not discrimination. I might not have the
song of today, but I got the donkey day.

Speaker 4 (58:42):
So if you ever feel I need to be a
donky man with.

Speaker 2 (58:45):
The it's a breakfast club bitch, please don't give the
day today. Well at Sharon.

Speaker 3 (58:51):
Donkey of Today for Wednesday, February twenty fifth goes to
forty two year old Lashawa Williams of Concord, North Carolina.
Lashana is a former Okay, former daycare teacher who is
serving jail time after pleading guilty in a child abuse
case that rightfully so has sparked outrage among childcare safety advocates. Okay,
Lashana is the epitome of people are in therapy to

(59:14):
deal with the people in their lives who won't go
to therapy. Because this woman, Lashana clearly needed some therapy,
and because she didn't get none, she's out here projecting
onto other people's kids. And I'm telling all you adults
right now, projecting your pain on the other people's children
is going to cause you to get your ass whip. Okay,
would you like to know what Lashanna did that has
causing me to say that? Well, let's go to w

(59:35):
CNC Charlotte put the report please, Well right now.

Speaker 29 (59:37):
What we know is this case states back to September
of last year, happening here at Concord Academy. According to
court documents, Lashawana Williams was charged after police say she
hot glued a three year old child two eight chair,
causing second degree birds. Now tonight, childcare safety advocates express
something is to be done. Forty two year old Lashawna

(59:59):
Williams is serving a ten day jail sentence after pleading
guilty to misdemeanor child abuse and contributing to the delinquency
of a juvenile. Documents show a three year old what
is it in their chair? Williams used a hot glue
gun to put glue on the seat and then side
the child on the chair, resulting in second degree burns
on the child's of her thighs. IVO can say this

(01:00:20):
case raises bigger questions about childcare oversight and safety. Williams
will serve six months of supervised probation following her release.
She must also complete twenty four hours of community service
and have no contact with the child or the child's family.

Speaker 2 (01:00:37):
Lashawna want to be Penny Mama from Good Time So Bad. Yes,
don't go into daycare or anything to do with kids
if you don't care about kids. It's that simple.

Speaker 3 (01:00:46):
In fact, don't get into daycare or anything to do
with watching kids if you don't love yourself, because if
you don't love yourself, you.

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
Will not love my kids.

Speaker 3 (01:00:54):
Taral Robinson, a behavioral therapist, said, if we can't have
a little bit of compassion, then we to find another job.

Speaker 2 (01:01:01):
I agree, okay, she said, we need better people in charge.

Speaker 3 (01:01:04):
And if you don't like kids, don't have patience, and
don't have compassion, don't work in a daycare.

Speaker 2 (01:01:11):
It's really just that simple.

Speaker 3 (01:01:12):
Furthermore, what am I supposed to do as a parent
when I find out an adult they're.

Speaker 4 (01:01:17):
Just to my child.

Speaker 3 (01:01:19):
Okay, if you've ever read my second book, Shook On Anxiety,
Playing tricks on Me, I talk about something called parental paranoia,
and it's the anxiety that exists simply being a parent.
Do you realize, parents, how crazy it is for us
to drop our most precious gifts that Jehovah gave us,
our souls outside of our body. Do you know how
crazy that is just to take our kids to be

(01:01:41):
with complete strangers every day. We don't know these teachers
for real, We don't know these people that watch our
kids for real. We just really rolling the dice every day,
taking a bigger risk. Because, as you can see what
this woman in Lashana, all it takes is.

Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
For her to have one bad day, okay, her coming
to work, hurt, taking that her on your child, and now, Lashauna,
I might have to hurt you. Actually, I gotta hurt you. Okay.
We have to start getting a little medieval in America.

Speaker 3 (01:02:07):
Not only do I want this woman to be prosecuted
to the fullest extent of the law, the parents need
to get five minutes with her, okay, father and mother,
and the father should be able to hold her while
the mother lays hands on her. Okay, belt the ass
because I'm not, you know, encouraging violence. I just don't
know what you expect of parents. What do you expect
parents to do when things like this happen to our
kids at the hands of other adults, adults?

Speaker 2 (01:02:29):
Why don't y'all think about these things? Why don't y'all
think about things like this? Folks like Lashauna must not
have kids, because if you have kids, then you know
how your kids make you feel. You not playing about y'alls?
So what would make you think another adult is playing
about theirs? What happened to the devil? Damn golden rule? Okay,
do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

(01:02:50):
If you glue my child to a chair, then you
gonna think my foot is glued to your ass.

Speaker 3 (01:02:55):
Okay, super glue, would glue, hot glue, glue sticks, guerrilla glue,
almost glue.

Speaker 2 (01:03:00):
I'm gonna make sure this ass kickingspecs. I tell you
all the time, you have to do your jail math.
You have to calculate the cost of the criminal offense
you are about to commit. Okay, and this is one
of those times when that assault charging those lawyer fees
would be absolutely worth it. Please give Lashanna Williams to
sweet down to the Hamiltons.

Speaker 30 (01:03:19):
Oh no, you are the dog of the day, the
dogee all the day.

Speaker 3 (01:03:32):
Ye I know, she got ten days in jail and
supervil probation, but boy, she's gonna be ducking parents.

Speaker 2 (01:03:41):
She's gonna be tough.

Speaker 3 (01:03:42):
She gonna be ducking somebody's parents in Concord and in
Charlotte because ain't no way, ain't nowhere, ain't no.

Speaker 7 (01:03:49):
Way she got kids at all. It's like that, like
that's wold, not at all. All right, Well, thank you
for that, donkey today. Now let's open up the phone
lines eight hundred five eight five one oh five. Won Now, Laura,
you were talking about Holly Berry. She did a recent interview,
and what did she say?

Speaker 2 (01:04:04):
You got your hair like that this one?

Speaker 5 (01:04:06):
Oh yeah, I'm giving halle Berry. No is that what
you're saying? That's high?

Speaker 2 (01:04:10):
Shut up? Shut up. Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:04:13):
So she did.

Speaker 19 (01:04:13):
Holly Berry sat down on Sex with Emily podcast, it's
like a sexual health and wellness podcast, and they were
having a conversation about orgasms and Holly Berry said that
there is one thing she will not do in her
relationship and that is fake and orgasm.

Speaker 5 (01:04:27):
Let's take a listen.

Speaker 31 (01:04:28):
And you said your sex it's great. How would you
say it's different now than it was saved twenty years ago.

Speaker 25 (01:04:33):
It's better now because I can now say to my partner,
here's what I want, here's what I don't want, and
to realize that I deserve an orgasm. Also, everybody has
faiked it because you.

Speaker 5 (01:04:44):
Just want it to be done.

Speaker 25 (01:04:45):
Sometimes you just want the pounded to stop. I'm good too,
and then you go find your vibrator in the bathroom
and your handle, let yourself stay there so that he
felt good about bringing us to orgasm.

Speaker 5 (01:05:00):
Right, So we had to say that we did it
so that he would feel good about him.

Speaker 25 (01:05:03):
So that's putting his needs before our own.

Speaker 5 (01:05:05):
Yeah, and now I don't do that.

Speaker 2 (01:05:07):
Now now, my good brother dj Nvy, I'm triggered. I
know this is triggering for him because if you've ever
read his first book, Real Real Life, Real Love, right,
he talks about how he didn't make his wife orgasm
for ten years and didn't say the whole decade. I
write the book, sir, I read the book. I read
the book.

Speaker 19 (01:05:25):
I read the book, and you know it's crazy the
clip with Chloe started going viral again yesterday.

Speaker 2 (01:05:31):
Do we have the clip with We don't have to click,
we have the clip clip click feel like girls finish last? No,
not Chloe.

Speaker 5 (01:05:44):
I do feel Oh. I thought that one explain himself
on his book to explain it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:51):
I don't want to hear this story. I want to
hear what he originally told, because he told the truth
then when he was fighting for his life on his
book told after people read the book and asked him
much is like interview, you didn't make your wife orgather
for ten years? That is that is not true.

Speaker 7 (01:06:04):
You guys didn't read the book. But My Life Real
Love bestseller, you should definitely go get it. But what
I said was I met my wife at fifteen and sixteen.
She was fifteen, I was sixteen, and when we first
started having sex, of course she was my first.

Speaker 8 (01:06:17):
I didn't know what I was doing. I used to pound.
So I did not make a reach orgasm through intercourse?

Speaker 22 (01:06:22):
How long?

Speaker 5 (01:06:22):
Ten years?

Speaker 7 (01:06:23):
It wasn't ten years. My mouth game was good. Okay,
So she did have an orgasm, just I did not know,
you know, we did. I didn't know her body, She
didn't know her body. I didn't know my body, and
once we figured it out, it was great. But yes,
she did lie. She used to fake it, and we
wrote about it. Damn he wrote about it in the
book because a lot of women do that. And you know,

(01:06:44):
if we would have talked about it earlier in our relationship,
it would have been a lot better.

Speaker 2 (01:06:50):
She said, I'm looking at Men's Health magazine dot com.
What's that headline? Say Lauren Loroosa? What the headline said?

Speaker 19 (01:06:56):
DJ Envy admitted his wife faked orgasm for ten years
and bold, it's big and b.

Speaker 3 (01:07:03):
Question, that's the roway from It hurt me because I
thought I was pleasing my wife.

Speaker 19 (01:07:16):
Damn well when Gia was here, though she did when
Gay was here, she said that she also had to
learn herself as well to the know what she wanted,
and that's a common woman experience.

Speaker 5 (01:07:28):
I mean, I'm never faked, all right.

Speaker 2 (01:07:30):
So what's the question?

Speaker 9 (01:07:31):
Man?

Speaker 8 (01:07:31):
Take this away from me. What's the question?

Speaker 2 (01:07:34):
I think, how did you improve? That's not the question? No,
I think the question is should women tell their men
the truth in those situations?

Speaker 5 (01:07:41):
I have a joke about it. It's like, yo, women
are not.

Speaker 10 (01:07:48):
No, women are not as forthcoming as we should be
when something they right in the bedroom, Like you know
what I'm saying, because we don't want to bruise a
man's ego.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
Like that's just really what it is.

Speaker 5 (01:07:55):
We're saving y'all whole time, y'all hurting us or we're
not being pleased, so you just have to be us
about it. Personal experience.

Speaker 10 (01:08:02):
You've been through that, yeah, fi times, especially with young manus.
Oh my god, that way around the vagina at all.

Speaker 7 (01:08:07):
We'll take some phone calls eight hundred five five, one
oh five to one. It's in my book and I've improved.
I just want you guys know.

Speaker 19 (01:08:13):
That this is I'm because on the second problem, you're
only twelve kids in and I hope you figured it right.

Speaker 4 (01:08:20):
God damn.

Speaker 2 (01:08:23):
She did tell her.

Speaker 5 (01:08:23):
She confirmed, she said.

Speaker 2 (01:08:24):
Yeah, we'll try and get this is triggering. It's the
Breakfast Morning Warning everybody. It's j n V. Just hilarious.
Charlamagne the guy.

Speaker 7 (01:08:32):
We are the Breakfast Club. Now if you're just joining us.
Lauren came here with some Holly Berry news and BS talk.

Speaker 5 (01:08:37):
To us now you're mad.

Speaker 19 (01:08:38):
Holly Berry was on Sex with Emily podcast and they
we're talking about orgasms and hally Berry says she used
to fake it and now she's never faking orgasm in
her relationships.

Speaker 10 (01:08:47):
Good she shouldn't. She's at the age where she shouldn't
have to do that. No, don't just tell the truth.
Telly's men the truth, and so they can fix whatever
the problem is, because if then, if you don't tell
them in the truth, they just gonna keep thinking that they.

Speaker 14 (01:08:59):
Tanning it up.

Speaker 5 (01:09:00):
They tanned out the frame and were beating this up.

Speaker 2 (01:09:02):
And it's like how wrote in his first book about
how you know he didn't make his wife or gather
him for ten years. You know what I mean.

Speaker 7 (01:09:09):
I did not make avration my mouth was but penetration
I did not, But you know, and then it came
out in the argument.

Speaker 2 (01:09:17):
He was arguing, I hope you can hear that edit.
I hope you heard what I heard just now he said, penetration, penetration.

Speaker 9 (01:09:26):
But I have.

Speaker 4 (01:09:35):
A whoile.

Speaker 10 (01:09:37):
I was thinking it for a little minute because, like
I said, they don't really know their way around the vagina.

Speaker 5 (01:09:43):
They don't.

Speaker 10 (01:09:44):
And sometimes you you're trying to save the fracturing of
a man's ego, like you don't want to you don't
want to shut the ego. But we're willing to not
get that at the expense of that feelings.

Speaker 2 (01:09:55):
You know, that's a person can't get better if you
don't tell us how to get better exactly.

Speaker 10 (01:09:59):
But the older I got and I'm like, no, I'm
not doing this. I'm not doing this no more so
shout out to Holly Barry. But like she said, she
would go and get that rolls or her toy, go
in that bathroom and get that.

Speaker 19 (01:10:09):
That's that's what you don't unless you'll have been together
since like young, like you, and I don't even understand
how you end up seriously in a relationship with someone
who's not if it's not pleasingly, I can't. Yeah, that's
not gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (01:10:18):
One of the greatest gifts I was ever given.

Speaker 3 (01:10:21):
It was from a homegirl of mind way way way,
way way back in the day, and it was called
the Ultimate Kiss Oral love Making, a Sensual Guide to
oral love Making, And it really did teach you how
to properly, uh you know, go down there and do that.
And it just taught you how to, you know, properly
make even a woman you know, do her thing through penetration,
but you know, doing that through penetration is red or

(01:10:42):
it's not.

Speaker 2 (01:10:42):
A lot of women don't get orgasms because of penetration.

Speaker 10 (01:10:45):
Yeah, and you and you don't in this later in
your life that you actually do have an orgasm because
you don't know how to do it.

Speaker 19 (01:10:51):
Or you even recognize what it is. But a lot
of it is the sensual and it's the connect. Like
there's a lot of other ways that things lead up
to that.

Speaker 5 (01:10:57):
That's what I'm saying. I don't know how you get
to that point. You never fag you're no your life
in your delaware as no never no.

Speaker 19 (01:11:05):
Because if I've ever had sex and it was horrible,
it didn't happen again, I'm not going for that. So
it was all but yeah, I mean conversations okay, and
they don't take that one. Let's go to oh baby,
that don't happen.

Speaker 16 (01:11:21):
I'm just.

Speaker 5 (01:11:24):
Ain't no way out that don't happen.

Speaker 2 (01:11:27):
We're good.

Speaker 5 (01:11:27):
You want to call out, ain'tn't even that many people
that's gonna be able to.

Speaker 18 (01:11:35):
Call you.

Speaker 2 (01:11:37):
Fall I mean, you got it read like twenty five
all three. See, and this is why.

Speaker 5 (01:11:48):
I don't have time for this this.

Speaker 8 (01:11:52):
Hey, good mornings.

Speaker 11 (01:11:54):
Hey, so I think women should be honest and about
the bedroom.

Speaker 27 (01:11:58):
But we don't.

Speaker 16 (01:11:59):
But I definitely lie.

Speaker 8 (01:12:01):
I definitely take you faked it a couple of times
for sure.

Speaker 2 (01:12:06):
Okay, why what did you gain out of that?

Speaker 26 (01:12:08):
I do want to get over with if I wasn't
getting pleased like like just said, we try to protect
the man ego.

Speaker 3 (01:12:15):
Yeah, but why not tell that man what he's doing
wrong so then he can get better because we're not
thinking about it like that.

Speaker 5 (01:12:23):
You just what I'm saying, You're going with.

Speaker 2 (01:12:25):
It like like you know what I think. It's sixteen,
I'd have been crushed, seventeen, I'd have been crushed. Why
you don't treat the man like like if you go
to your g y N. Your g y N is
looking around up there, you got to tell him exactly
what's wrong to fix it. But the man is not
a yeah he in there just like the g y Yeah,
like them what's wrong, especially when they trying to do

(01:12:47):
the little thing.

Speaker 5 (01:12:48):
It's like, damn, I did not come for a perfect exam.
You know what, guys?

Speaker 2 (01:12:51):
Do you know what I'm saying? I hate that man
and his fingers all think for no reason?

Speaker 5 (01:12:54):
Then wash your hands. No, don't say yes, saying.

Speaker 18 (01:13:03):
I got you.

Speaker 5 (01:13:09):
Hello with this now my finger now falling off?

Speaker 2 (01:13:13):
You talk to us? You faked it in a relationship before.

Speaker 16 (01:13:18):
I have, because I don't. You never want to hurt
the person feelings.

Speaker 20 (01:13:24):
But as you get older, you know, you know?

Speaker 16 (01:13:26):
Do you know?

Speaker 22 (01:13:27):
You you know?

Speaker 16 (01:13:29):
Scretch the feelings? How are you going to learn if
you don't know?

Speaker 9 (01:13:32):
So?

Speaker 26 (01:13:33):
You know, I mean I'm without commat Me and my
man we watched poorn together. Let's try this, you know.
We try to do different things so that we can
keep that working.

Speaker 16 (01:13:43):
And if I don't, I'll do something that he doesn't.

Speaker 26 (01:13:46):
I want him to tell me.

Speaker 5 (01:13:48):
Yeah, okay, I'm gonna get better.

Speaker 2 (01:13:51):
Thank you mama.

Speaker 7 (01:13:52):
Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If
you're just joining us, we're talking about Holly Berry. She
did a recent interview, and what did she say during
the interview.

Speaker 19 (01:13:58):
So during the interview, she says she is no longer
faking an orgasm in her relationship?

Speaker 7 (01:14:03):
Women, are you faking it? We're talking about Halle Berry.
Now she broke down faking an orgasm.

Speaker 8 (01:14:08):
Let's listen.

Speaker 31 (01:14:09):
You said your sex it's great. How would you say
it's different now than it was? Say twenty years ago.

Speaker 25 (01:14:14):
It's better now because I can now say to my partner,
here's what I want, here's what I don't want, and
to realize that I deserve an orgasm. Also, everybody has
faked it because you just want it to be done.
Sometimes you just want the pounding to stop.

Speaker 9 (01:14:31):
Just say.

Speaker 25 (01:14:33):
I'm good too, and then you go find your vibrator
in the bathroom and your hand to let you say.
You know, we had to get there so that he
felt good about bringing us to orgasm, right, So we
had to say that we did it so that he
would feel good about him. So that's putting his needs
before our own.

Speaker 5 (01:14:46):
Yeah, and now I don't do that now.

Speaker 2 (01:14:49):
So we're asking eight hundred five eight five one oh

Speaker 2 (01:16:27):
What's going on brother, what use so listen here, I was.

Speaker 16 (01:16:31):
In your bitch. I met my wife when I was fourteen.

Speaker 20 (01:16:34):
She was firsteing, but we didn't do anything until we.

Speaker 16 (01:16:37):
Were eighteen to nineteen.

Speaker 27 (01:16:39):
And from like eighteen it's probably twenty. There was a
few terms that she didn't go to her and did
not notice it. But then when she would start telling
me like to be argument like you wouldn't even do nothing?

Speaker 9 (01:16:56):
It real?

Speaker 16 (01:16:57):
So I it is, I do respect, I.

Speaker 20 (01:17:02):
See because now we're twenty three years in.

Speaker 16 (01:17:04):
And hey, she she taught me.

Speaker 20 (01:17:07):
And that's every time somebody like my own was like,
all you got to ask your wife, Yeah, my wife,
I need to ask my wife.

Speaker 2 (01:17:15):
Yes, how did gear used to tell you? And because
you were DJ, and she'd be like you didn't even
rock the party you thought you kill and white was
dancing for real?

Speaker 5 (01:17:28):
Da oh my god it was DJ shrimp.

Speaker 2 (01:17:33):
Oh my goodness, jes J. So you understand the pain, yes, but.

Speaker 27 (01:17:37):
She never told me when her was good and we
can do our people like.

Speaker 10 (01:17:41):
That's what other that you didn't even damn woa the
argument that hurts when they use it against you with
her right, but we we wrote about it in that
book Real Life, Real Love J C J understands my pain,
but I didn't know you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (01:17:55):
She was my first So it's like you had to learn,
you had to experience that. There's no guide.

Speaker 9 (01:17:59):

Speaker 2 (01:17:59):
You watch you to.

Speaker 8 (01:18:00):

Speaker 5 (01:18:19):
Do y'all talk to each other like.

Speaker 2 (01:18:21):
Yo, the woman knows her about But if you're not.

Speaker 19 (01:18:26):
With a woman that is communicating that right, Like for
men who are like just dating casually, they're not having
them deep conversations yet how do they learn?

Speaker 2 (01:18:34):
And that's my point. That's not a conversation you have
with your dad.

Speaker 7 (01:18:37):
This is something you watch pooring and you think that, oh,
I got a bank bank bank bay baby.

Speaker 2 (01:18:42):
The conversation you should have with your dad.

Speaker 3 (01:18:43):
Because I remember being with my older cousins when I
was young and they used to be talking about, you know,
doing things like eating and.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
I like that's nasty and they'd be like, you know
what you're pulling? Like, no, that's nasty. I no, PU Like, man,
when you get all, you're gonna beating.

Speaker 9 (01:18:58):
But I came out.

it in the books so other brothers they won't feel
ashamed to have those conversations.

Speaker 19 (01:21:27):
I can't wait and d so y'all can start back
to me too, because everywhere I go people asking so
Black Effect Podcast, I mean Black Effect dot Com, Backslash
Podcast Festival.

Speaker 3 (01:21:35):
Soluta State's Farm sponsoring this year's Black Effect Podcast Festival
State Farm, State Farm, State Farm. We appreciate you man
for riding with Black Effects Sluth to State slutha State Farm.

Speaker 19 (01:21:46):
Yes, yeah, so we'll see you guys in Atlanta. But
talking about Atlanta, you guys remember some time back we
were reporting on the shooting of Tea Hood at the
Artists in Atlanta. He was shot and then he passed away.
And this was following incident that involved ky Frost, which
is the son of Kirk and Rashida from Love and
Hip Hop Atlanta and their daughter who was apparently dating

(01:22:08):
a Tea Hood at the time, Kelsey. So, Kirk and
Rashida were actually filming during some of this, and on
an episode the preview that dropped from Love and Hip
Hop this week, they talk about just the weight of
going through all of that behind the scenes.

Speaker 5 (01:22:23):
Sot's take a listen.

Speaker 22 (01:22:24):
This has been such a difficult journey for us, just
trying to figure out how to navigate the best way
we can as a family. On top of that, my
daughter Kelsey, we found out the depths of the relationships
she was in with a young gentleman who lost their life.
But the mental emotional toll that is taken on all

(01:22:46):
of us is overwhelming.

Speaker 2 (01:22:48):
Emotionally, there's a lot of down days for both of them. Mentally,
it's been horrible nights with no sleep, nights when your
phone ring, you're jumping about your sleep, praying that nothing
else is going wrong. It's just one of the places
you don't want to be. Kai and Kelsey being as
close as they was, Kelsey is the big sister to
the little brother, like he looked up to her. So

(01:23:10):
it's just not a good thing. That's horrible. Man. I
wonder if that's therapeutic for them, like like unpacking that trauma.
They got to relive it all over again and talk
about it all over again.

Speaker 19 (01:23:22):
I just want to say, I can't imagine that it
will because it makes people call you, makes me. I
saw the comments and so many of their friends were
in the comments, and other celebrities were in the commons,
just sending them love. But it makes you want to
reach out and make sure they're okay, and they probably
got pasted a lot of that stuff or trying to actually,
because it's still an open investigation too.

Speaker 2 (01:23:37):
I was going to ask was he charged whatever?

Speaker 19 (01:23:39):
The last reports, the last known reports were that this
was sent from the Gwyneth County PD, the police department
to the DA. They are looking at it at self defense.
Remember that conversation changed, but that was the last thing.
But there is still a charge that can come Kai's
way from what I see, but nothing, nothing as of yet.

Speaker 10 (01:23:57):
And yeah, well I love Kirkami and they have been
living their lives on TV for the last ten twelve Yes.

Speaker 19 (01:24:05):
Yeah, yes, Now as we wrap, I did want to
take some time to announce that the NAATP Image Awards
will go down this weekend, but they've already dropped some
of their like virtual awards. And I saw that Cardi B.
She made history. So she was nominated for Outstanding Female
Artists for am I the Drama. She was nominated for
Outstanding Album for am I the Drama and Outstanding Hip

(01:24:28):

Speaker 2 (01:24:30):

Speaker 5 (01:24:34):
Yeah, and so this now puts her hold on I
want to make sure I get this correct.

Speaker 20 (01:24:43):
Sorry y'all.

Speaker 5 (01:24:43):
Sorry, I just to make sure I get HERLIX.

Speaker 2 (01:24:47):

she's made over two million dollars just in one night,

her in this category with like Nicki Minaj and like

(01:25:27):

Speaker 2 (01:25:30):

Speaker 5 (01:25:32):
Let me look, I believe it's March twenty.

Speaker 2 (01:25:34):
I'm gonna man, We're gonna go I'm gonna get us switch.

Speaker 5 (01:25:39):
Fun that I am staying off my phone, so I'll
get on Twitter this time.

Speaker 8 (01:25:43):
Actually, and body doesn't have an opening, right you talk correct?

Speaker 5 (01:25:45):
Yeah, So from what my friend told me who went
in LA, there's no opener.

Speaker 19 (01:25:49):
She will bring up people say, yeah, she'll bring out
people on songs, but no opener. And she's changing very
insane good looking, but like these are real costume outfits
in between acts and no delays.

Speaker 5 (01:25:59):
The shows said.

Speaker 2 (01:26:01):
Her team is everything down too, because I love I
love stories like that NV.

Speaker 3 (01:26:07):
You know, you know when you watch somebody like Cardi,
how do you see her from the bar? We had
her at the Breakfast Club day parties way way back
in the day.

Speaker 2 (01:26:15):
Way even before that yellow, before gainst the bitch music.

years fifty came out to one of them, while A

will come out to really go ahead.

Speaker 25 (01:26:42):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:26:42):
It was funny because I remember back in the day
at the time Shaft was her manager. I was like,
I want, we want to book Barty for the next
two years at this price that He was like why.
I said, I already know what is going and I'm glad.
I'm glad that happened. Yes, we did.

Speaker 8 (01:26:55):
We would have been to her.

Speaker 2 (01:26:56):

Speaker 3 (01:27:45):
You know he does a podcast called I Didn't Know
Maybe You Didn't Need It on the Black Effect Podcast Network.

Speaker 2 (01:27:49):
Well, he tells you some things about black history that
you may not have known.

Speaker 3 (01:27:52):
And today he's gonna talk to you about Ethiopia, the
African Empire, Europe couldn't break.

Speaker 32 (01:27:57):
The African Empire, that Europe kitting break introducing Ethiopia, I
know it else. Welcome back to another episode of the
most anticipated podcast on the Black Effects Podcast Network, especially
in February.

Speaker 14 (01:28:17):
It's entitled I Didn't Know Maybe you didn't either?

Speaker 32 (01:28:20):
And I'm your host, Be Dott And in twenty twenty six,
I want to go to Africa Johannesburg, Ghana. Do they
like us in Nigeria because I read in the comments
on Instagram they got some real bad words for Black
Americans in Nigeria. AnyWho, this week you need your digital
passports because we're traveling all around the world discovering black history.

(01:28:44):
Because the origin story for black folks ain't enslaved in America.

Speaker 14 (01:28:48):
After being kidnapped in Africa.

Speaker 32 (01:28:50):
If your version of African history is everybody got colonized,
this episode is about to fix that.

Speaker 14 (01:28:57):
But before we jump into the episode, it is in peril.

Speaker 32 (01:29:00):
It is customary that I'd give you three of the
most useless facts.

Speaker 14 (01:29:04):
You'll never need, never, not a day in life.

Speaker 32 (01:29:07):
Up First, Ethiopia is one of the only African nations
to successfully resist European colonization.

Speaker 14 (01:29:16):
The second used this fact.

Speaker 32 (01:29:17):
In eighteen ninety six, Ethiopia defeated Italy in a full
scale war. And your third use this fact is that
victory shook Europe so bad they tried to pretend that
it never happened, which is why we've got today's episode.

Speaker 2 (01:29:33):
I didn't know.

Speaker 4 (01:29:35):
I didn't know.

Speaker 7 (01:29:38):
I did I didn't know.

Speaker 9 (01:29:41):
I didn't know.

Speaker 18 (01:29:43):
I didn't know.

Speaker 32 (01:29:45):
All right, let's set the scene. It's the late eighteen hundreds.
Europe is carving up Africa like a buffet. Britain, France, Belgium, Italy,
everybody grabbing the own pieces of land, their own resources
and people. Italy looks over at Ethiopia and says that
one's next, and Ethiopia says, the devil is alive. You

(01:30:07):
ain't got a snowball and a microwage chance, a conquering
nothing over here.

Speaker 14 (01:30:12):
My stepdad used to say that all the time, you
ain't got a snowball in a microwavee chance.

Speaker 32 (01:30:17):
Anyways, led by Mentalik, the second Ethiopia writing, guessing, hoping
or improvising. See, they studied the European tactics. They stockpiled
modern weapons, They unified their people, They prepared for war.
Meneleik's wife, she was an empress named Tato Bertol. She
personally led troops in the battle. She commanded the northern

(01:30:38):
forces at Adua and cut off the Italian water supply.
A whole military strategist, and when Italy invaded Ethiopia put
built to Italy at the Battle of Adoar, I mean decisively.
It was seventeen thousand Italian troops and Ethiopia had one
hundred thousand plus soldiers. Italy lost forty percent of his
seventeen thousand troops in a single day March first, eighteen

(01:31:02):
ninety six. There wasn't no symbolic resistance that were military
dominance and the impact was global. Man black folk all
across the world was celebrating Ethiopia that was proof that
African Week Black leadership worked.

Speaker 14 (01:31:16):
Colonization was not our destiny.

Speaker 32 (01:31:19):
Ethiopia became a symbol from Marcus Garvey to Pan African movements.
Ethiopia stood its evidence that black sovereignty was possible.

Speaker 14 (01:31:28):
Take the Ethiopian flag for example, green, gold, and red.

Speaker 32 (01:31:32):
That became the templar for independent flags all across Africa.

Speaker 14 (01:31:36):
Donald Senegal, Molly Comeroon, all echoes of Ethiopia's defiance. I
loved that.

Speaker 32 (01:31:43):
For us, this almost goes back to Week two, hidden
in plain sights, and that's exactly why the story got minimized.
Because if people learned Africa could win, colonization starts looking illegal,
not inevitable. A cent after Ethiopia embarrassed a European empire,

(01:32:04):
Cartogie Woodson launched Negro History Week to preserve stories just
like this, because victories are dangerous to empires.

Speaker 14 (01:32:13):
Woodson new, if black.

Speaker 32 (01:32:14):
People only learn about losses, they'll never imagine power. Ethiopia
proved their power was real, and I didn't know. Maybe
you didn't either.

Speaker 26 (01:32:27):
Congratship Housport gets something next.

Speaker 8 (01:32:30):
Up, Jamerica, Salute to be dot Now, Jess, you got to.

Speaker 10 (01:32:36):
Effect absolutely and I know y'all didn't know this one.
So you asked me a couple of weeks ago who
made the Jerry curl And it is Jerry Redding and
he's white, right, and he made it in the late
nineteen seventies, but it was popularized by the black community
when Comer Katraul he's African American and he created the

(01:33:00):
early kit in nineteen eighty making.

Speaker 5 (01:33:02):
It affordable for the public.

Speaker 10 (01:33:04):
You didn't know that because you asked me that last
week and I didn't have the answers for you, but
did some reading because that's what I do.

Speaker 2 (01:33:09):
Now ask you who created the Jeriago And I absolutely
know who created Jericho, yeah, because I just told you
I knew it was Jerry Reading. He was white.

Speaker 5 (01:33:20):
That was the whole Okay, what else did he What
else did he create? I don't know, hair conditioner, p
what is it? The pH balance?

Speaker 2 (01:33:33):
But he was he was in the haircare, yes, he
was that. He That's what he was known for. He
was a haircare entrepreneur.

Speaker 10 (01:33:39):
Right, he made it all right, But Comer Katral the
black Man, popularized it in the nineteen eighties, making the
curly kit in nineteen eighties. And there's no you know
official first person to wear it, but Michael Jackson line
of Richie and else okay, yeah, and Rick James, they
were they were the first comers, the first comers the way, yes, ice.

Speaker 5 (01:34:04):
Cube, this was late.

Speaker 9 (01:34:05):
LA.

Speaker 2 (01:34:05):
Funny thing about the Jerry curl is you're gonna have
to explain what that is.

Speaker 5 (01:34:09):
But you know, I don't have a j curs.

Speaker 2 (01:34:13):
You give it a little boy with the scully on
the and the with the baby head.

Speaker 8 (01:34:18):
You know that's different. That's different, hey y whatever.

Speaker 10 (01:34:22):
But people confuse it for the California curl because so
many Californians as you just named easy ice Cube and
all of them, they were wearing it, and you know
it was it was very popular back then.

Speaker 5 (01:34:33):
But it was originally the Jerry curl, not the California curl.

Speaker 8 (01:34:38):
I did not know that, thank you, and he didn't either.

Speaker 2 (01:34:41):
I didn't know that ja curls made by a white
man on the joke back in the day in the eighties.
Then think about it, all these black people walking around
with a curl and then they start making Joe Belly
you wearing that white man has the house. You know,
a white man had been that people like a white
man had been to the Jerry Curl.

Speaker 5 (01:34:56):
That's crazy, and people still walking around greasy and everything
