eighty nine. The Rockets lost Golden State Warriors move on.
They won Neces series four to three. In Game one

talked about the boxing thing quickly, we could just go
through them real fast. Ryan Garcia lost right.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yes he did to Roly Romero.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Roly dropped him in the second round and then Ryan
just toucked his tail the rest of the fight. But
something was up with Ryan though, because now that I
think about it, Ryan wasn't even trolling or making no
noise before the fight and nothing either he was.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
He was eerily quiet for a person that's been.

Speaker 5 (04:23):

Speaker 2 (04:35):

Well morning, Morgain, Hey.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
Y'all, Hey, good morning and happy Monday. How are we
feeling with good up?

Speaker 7 (04:43):
Girl?

Speaker 4 (04:43):
It's Chris brownd birthday and staying with him my old Okay,
just to day, all right, So let's get it to
it first off front page. President Trump had a lot
to say about a lot in recent interview with NBC's
Meet the Press. He was asked about Kimar a breakout Garcia,
who was deported to El Salvador, and what the White
House is calling an administrative error, but has since walked

(05:03):
back those comments, saying he is a member of the
MS thirteen gang. In the interview, Trump expressed concerns about
clashing with the court, saying that the judges are in
his way in these deportations, and he also said he
doesn't know if he needs to uphold the constitution and
give Abrego Garcia due process. Let's take a listen to
those comments.

Speaker 8 (05:22):
No, I have to respond by saying, again, I have
brilliant lawyers that work for me, and they are going
to obviously follow what the Supreme Court said. What you
said is not what I heard. The Supreme Court said.
They have a different interpretation.

Speaker 4 (05:39):
So he's saying that his administration is interpreting the Supreme
Court ruling of facilitating Kilmar Abrego Garcia back here differently
than I guess the rest of us. So this week,
on May ninth, the administration is facing a court ordered
deadline to provide an update on the steps that they've
taken to return Garcia. So we will see what happens
as a result of that deadline fact.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
That people are just breathing by.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
He says he doesn't know whether he needs to uphold
the constitutions in Sandy.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Presidents are constitutionally obligated to uphold the constitution.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
That is the oath of office.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Okay, he requires the president to preserve, protect, and defend
the constitution of the United States. Now, if you're all
ready to live in a post constitutional society and you
need to ask yourself what that's.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
Going to look like, it might look like us having
a military parade, you know. So, the President plans to
hold the big military parade in Washington, d C. This summer.
When he was asked about the cost this is estimated
to be about forty five million dollars, he called it
peanuts compared to the value. Let's take a listen to
the president's comments on his military parade that he expects

(06:42):
to have in June.

Speaker 8 (06:43):
We have the greatest missiles in the world, we have
the greatest submarines in the world, we have the greatest
army tanks in the world, we have the greatest weapons
in the world.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
And we're going to celebrate so that parade he wants
to be in honor of Flag Day, which ironically enough,
falls on his birthday, which is June fourteenth.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
How much is that supposed to cost?

Speaker 4 (07:04):
So this time forty five million. In his first administration
he projected or he wanted to have one, and that
one would have been about around ninety million.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
So this is what it is interesting, and that meets
the president of you yesterday.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
You know, he was just talking about his trade policies,
and he said his trade policies may mean children may
have fewer toys that costs more. He said, you know,
kids don't have to have thirty toys, they can have three.
What about him in his parade? That sounds you know
what I mean? If you want kids to have less,
shouldn't you have less?

Speaker 4 (07:32):
Yeah? It's giving doze? Where's dose when you need it?

Speaker 9 (07:35):
Right?

Speaker 5 (07:35):
Where's the last president to do that? Who was the
last president to do that? To have a quote unquote
military parade?

Speaker 4 (07:39):
I am not sure. Let me double check on that
one for you. Just before we get into that, I
will say that he does appear to be okay with
short term recession due to tariffs if it means creating
the strongest economy. Ever, that's what he said. Trump insists
that any short term pain will far outweigh his long
term goals. He says, the tariffs will be MANU will
bring men facturing jobs back to the US, and it

(08:01):
means more jobs for a stronger US.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
I don't understand how American citizens have to sacrifice, but
he doesn't, like he shouldn't be throwing a parade that's
cost forty five plus million dollars of money that's not needed.
So if you want, if you want American citizens to sacrifice,
and he's your sacrifice as well.

Speaker 4 (08:21):
Absolutely, it looks like the last military parade that we
had was in Washington, DC in nineteen ninety one to
celebrate the conclusion of the Gulf War. So that would
have been the excuse me, I'm like, what presidency was that.
That would have been Clinton, the first Clinton administration or
the last Bush. Okay, I'm like the last Bush. I'll

(08:42):
clarify that at seven am. But yeah, that's the front
page news for six am. We'll continue this conversation that
the President had with NBC's Meet the Press.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
One that was definitely George One, Okay, the old Bush.

Speaker 5 (08:56):
Yes, all right, everybody else get it off. He had
check eight hundred and five eight five one five one.

weekend was. What you did again? Eight hundred five eight

I started to call maybe about two weeks ago after
watching the preview or feelers and say, Hi, we as
black people didn't want to see Don't Fight the Posty.
You know, no Lean type movies like that. And I
went as far as this weekend, and I want to
give that brother y'all had up there who produced the movie.

(13:28):
I want to give them around them laws. Man, I'm
a good movie man. I liked it a lot. Never

had to see it, I recommend everybody to go see it.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
Man, Okay, what do you mean?

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Never judge a book by its cover or what was
what was the on the cover that you that you judged?

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Uh like all the weird like all the.

Speaker 9 (13:52):
Weird stuff going on, and you just didn't know the
jest of it. Uh you didn't know the meaning of
it because it was just so like biopatic.

Speaker 4 (14:01):
Yeah, what you're saying.

Speaker 9 (14:04):
I really don't. I really want to understand the message
of this whytch dumpires, right, you know, I didn't know
if it was like they said that kut Kayne was
really evil dealers around that time. So you know, I'm
trying to get the something the bruges of it, but.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
You should definitely. It was very instant.

Speaker 4 (14:19):
I get what you're saying. I understand your sentiment. You
should definitely go see it again though, too, because that's
what I had to do. But no, just from watching
the trailer, you ain't gonna get like you need to
go see the movie depth.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
One thing I saw that they said the vampire is uh,
they weren't really portrayed as purely evil monsters, but just
as flawed humans that were grappling with the consequences of
their past.

Speaker 9 (14:44):
So that is how all the people were dancing, you
know at the end and around you know what I mean,
when they walked.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
Up, when they were dancing at the end.

Speaker 9 (14:53):
Yeah, when I when they all left after. I believe
the brother got bit Noby, the one white girl who
was in the.

Speaker 4 (14:59):

to walk that far to go pee bro.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
In corn Bredg's defense, he didn't pee in the woods
a million times. He wasn't expecting no vampires to be
in there. There's a lot of things you're going if
you if you're from the country, you go in the
woods and pee, you expect to see a lot of things.
Vampires didn't want to.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Three weird ass.

Speaker 4 (15:31):
White people walk up to the club and you and
they say they're going to walk. So you know what

Speaker 12 (18:03):
So Diddy's chrial is kicking off today in New York.

Speaker 4 (18:06):
Diddy, who's been locked up since September, will begin a
dreary selection today. So that's the process where they find
the twelve drawers who will sit down. Now the charges
for those who do not remember, because it's been a
long time since the initial charges dropped. He is being
charged currently with sex tracking, sex trafficking, rocket tearing, conspiracy,
and transportation to engage in prostitution. Now Diddy has pled

(18:28):
not guilty to all of these charges, but if convicted
on all accounts, because he turned down the plea before
going to court, he could face up to life in prison.
Now CNN is reporting that based off of documents that
they've looked at, there's going to be several different topics
that the potential drawers will be questioned on it to
see if they fit, including their views on sex with
multiple partners, drugs, and hip hop. They also might be

(18:51):
asked about their feelings, beliefs, or experiences related to intimate
partner violence, cheating and relationship, prostitution, the distribution of illegal drugs,
the music in the street, because they're trying to figure
out how can they actually find people who are not
fans of buff to the point where it'll, you know,
distort how they make the decision.

Speaker 12 (19:09):
But very hard exactly, I.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
Mean, this is gonna be very hard to find people
on this jury who have don't know anything about this case,
who haven't been influenced by anything outside of what the
actual case is about.

Speaker 5 (19:20):
And that's why they were saying older white women, I
guess this morning on the news.

Speaker 4 (19:24):
So when you're talking about the older white women. It's
the prosecution team that is all white women, and it's
actually led by uh Comy's daughter, James Comy, the old
FBI director. So and I'll get into that, but that's
what you're talking about.

Speaker 5 (19:39):
That's oh no, no, no, they said that when they were
looking for jurors, they're going to be looking for older
white women, people that probably don't know much about Diddy,
probably not in that that hip hop world, that might
not have seen that video.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
That's what Diddy one of them crossover people and has
been that for a long time.

Speaker 4 (19:55):
Yea, according to other reports. You know, the biggest thing
years exactly what you said is that Diddy is such
a huge celebrity and everything with this case, especially in
the beginning with that Cassie video, has been everywhere everywhere. Yes,
So that that's gonna be one of the issues. And
that's why Puff's team was trying so hard to get
that video not at to be used as evidence in

(20:16):
this case. Was soever but that was denied. So yeah,
that's gonna be one of the things. Now, the jury
selections should last only a week, so it will only
be this week and then Monday the twelve is when
the actual like opening statements, which is, you know, when
they get into all the stuff, stuff will begin.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
I thought you had to have a jeury of peers though,
wasn't that? Am I making that up?

Speaker 4 (20:35):
When they said jury of your peers normally, that means
by like normally it's like who like just everyday people.
So they want people that like look like the world
you live in. Remember in Acid Rocky's case, they were
upset because they were Joe Techapino was upset because it
wasn't really any black people. And the jury jury of
your peers normally just means that it wants that, you know,
we walk out into the world every day.

Speaker 12 (20:51):
They want white people, black.

Speaker 4 (20:52):
People, women, men, a little bit of everybody.

Speaker 12 (20:55):
Yeah, a little bit of everybody so that it's fair.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Are you going to the courthouse? I thought you was going.

Speaker 12 (20:59):
I am going to the courthouse. I will be there
this morning.

Speaker 4 (21:03):
Yes.

Speaker 12 (21:03):
This is Romeo Hunt, an amazing black designer. Thank you.

Speaker 8 (21:06):
Sis.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
Let anybody in the court house.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
Uh that.

Speaker 4 (21:15):
Y'all, y'all don't like my outfit.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
It was a very limited space. So I was just
asking how they first come for a server.

Speaker 4 (21:21):
Yeah, so it is first come for a serve. For
you know, people of the media, and uh yeah, I
mean they're going to check you and stuff when you
come in, but it's first comfort serve. I did hear
that there was like a special media credential that you
have to request in order to be able to bring
in the actual laptop, and I've tried to reach out
on that but haven't heard back on that yet. But
I'll have my phone so as much as I can anyway,
so I like him possible. You can get any goddamn

(21:42):
with I don't even know how you end up in.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
You know, this is a Diddy trial, not a Diddy party, right,
I know that good? Though.

Speaker 4 (21:52):
If you guys are looking to see the outfit that
Charlomagne is just so critical, make sure you follow me
on Instagram at Lauren la Rosa Twitter right now, I know.
But for everyone that's actually listening in because I want
them to know where to go find you after this video,
and they can't see the full outfit. And there's a
jacket that I will also have on that makes it
a little bit more conservative for the peoplevative.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
It's just crazy how anything with Dinny folks still feel
like they got addressed, like they're going to a.

Speaker 4 (22:15):
P and a cape, keep getting his haircut every single day.
Coming here.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
We keep fixing that wig every single day.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
And exactly now. I did want to mention too that
today is the first Monday in May Glass and it's
brown birthday. It's met gallon Monday. So today, so many

(22:43):
things going on Chris Brown as well. Yes, today the
met Galla will kick off the theme.

Speaker 2 (22:49):

be worried, You should be very concerned.

Speaker 4 (22:57):
Right now, they've got a Mexican gallop.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
This is called they throw a Mexican gallon. That's a trap.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
Open tequila or do not go don't go to mexicallu.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
The mech gally is the trap mexic.

Speaker 4 (23:19):
The mech galas is you know, being highlight and talked
about so much this year because the theme is tailoring
Black style. It's an old to black dandyism and all
of us re fined and sophisticated glory. It's based off
of a book written by a professor. Her name is
Monica Miller, and that book, you know, just talks about
how in the beginning days of slavery, we use things
like dandyism and tailoring our style to uh, you know,

(23:41):
assimilate away from certain things and certain you know, just
never heard so dandy ism. I actually printed out pictures
for you guys. Dang, I forgot the photos. So you
know how like Tiana Taylor dresses down in the suits
or you think about a dapper Dan or Coleman Domingo,
that is what people look at as like dandyism.

Speaker 12 (23:59):
It is like fine, it's tailored.

Speaker 4 (24:01):
It's it's it's it is very rich. So there's a
there's an exhibit in the met that they're going to
celebrate tonight that is all about tailored you know style
and the old to the black dandyism eras and what
that has evolved to come to become and look like.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Refined taste, yes, meticulous grooming, attention to detail and dress
and behavior.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
Corella is the one that's hosting this tonight, right yeah.

suits often.

Jonathan he gives he would definitely be on brand and
maybe I'm sure he's on the in fright list, know

the predictions on Twitter. Actually I never be on Twitter,
but to know people are thinking like me on there.
People feel like Michael is going to show up at

People also are predicting that maybe Rihanna, if the rumors
are true, might reveal a surprise.

major news outlets. We'll also be covering meg Gala in
the Didty situation as well too.

Speaker 5 (26:05):
All Right, now, when we come back, we got front
page news, so don't go anywhere.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, yes, wait wait wait cool,
you're locked into the breakfast Club.

Speaker 5 (26:13):
Good morning everybody. It's Tja, n V Jess hilarious, Charlamagne
the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get back
in some front page news.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
What something Morgan.

Speaker 4 (26:22):
Yeah, So we were previously talking about President Trump's interview
with NBC's Meet the Press, and in the last segment
we were trying to figure out the last president who
had a military parade, and in fact, it was George H. W.
Bush who had that last military parade in nineteen ninety
one and the conclusion of the Gulf War, just to
wanting to confirm that for the listeners and for you

(26:43):
guys as well. But moving on President Trump. In that interview,
he said he will not remove Jerome Powell as the
Federal Reserve Board chairman before his term ends. Of course,
he made those comments again on NBC's Meet the Press.
Trump described the Central banker as a total stiff and
called for the FED to lower interest rates. Now, the
President said Powe is not a fan of his, but
he expects the Fed to lower interest rates at some point.

(27:07):
The funny thing is that also came up in the
interview is whether or not this whole twenty twenty eight
run is a real thing. He was asked about his
organization website selling twenty twenty eight gear. And here's what
Trump had to say in regards to being having a
potential extra term even though we know that it's not possible.

(27:28):
Let's take a listen to President Trump's comments on that
twenty twenty eight brand.

Speaker 8 (27:31):
There are many people selling the twenty twenty eight hat,
but this is not something I'm looking to do. I'm
looking to have four great years. So many people want
going to do. I have never had requests so strong
as that. But it's something that, to the best of
my knowledge and not allowed to do.

Speaker 4 (27:49):
Yeah. So Trump added that he said he will only
be a two term president and said he's only looking
forward to four great years. Trump also noted that there
are a good a lot of good Republicans that could
be president in twenty twenty eight. He mentioned JD Vance
Vice President JD. Vance, but he also said he is
not endorsing anyone at this current time. What do you
guys think, he.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
Said Marco Rubio as well.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
I mean, the thing that I found interesting about that
statement is he said when he said that he goes,
I don't know if that's in the Constitution or not
or something to that effect.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
If it's even possible to get say something like that.

Speaker 1 (28:20):
And it's just interesting that, you know, it's some things
he knows he can't do, and it's some things he
claims he doesn't know what he can do.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
Yeah, and he gonna push that line and see what's
happening with the courts. You're absolutely right, let's switch gears.
Former National Security Advisor Mike Walls. He will face a
tough confirmation hearing to become US ambassador to the United Nations.
That's what Virginia Democratic Senator Mark Warner told CNN State
of the Union. Let's take a listen to his comments.

Speaker 14 (28:47):
I think it will be a brutal confirmation hearing Walt's
at least acknowledged a bit of a mistake. I think
he's going to have tough questions, not only from Democrats
but from Republicans.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
So the administration is saying that he was not fired
but instead promoted in a sense. Now Wall's face scrutiny
and backlash for mistakenly adding a reporter to that signal
group chat that discussed plans for a military strike in
his former role as National Security Advisor, and that seemingly
has happened more than once. Not to his fault, but
you know, just hex up. Anyways, moving on, Trump said

(29:19):
that in the interim Secretary of State Marco Rubio will
serve as National Security Advisor while continuing his strong leadership
at the State Department as the Secretary of State. Yes so,
and just wrapping things up, I think this is an
important story. I mentioned it last week, but it is
in effect effect. Well, I would say effective immediately, effective today.
According to this federal official state government, the government will

(29:42):
begin collecting defaulted student loan payments starting today. So if
you need those tequila shots Tho Sinco to Myles shots,
you might wan go ahead and take those early on
and then get your points together. So the collection efforts
will be the first since the start of the pandemic.
The Trump administration said the debt will be collected through
a Treasury Department program that withholds payments from tax refunds, wages,

(30:05):
and government benefits. So they're coming for all the pockets. Okay.
The US Department of Education has not collected loan payments
since March of twenty twenty. Officials say that in the
last five years, student debt has risen over one trillion dollars.
So if you've got student loans, maybe try to make
those payments, make arrangements, or do whatever you can to

(30:26):
figure this part out, because in the midst of what's
happening with this administration, I can't but help to think,
and this is just my opinion that this could also
be one of those things that call for punishment or
unnecessary punishment down the line. So just keep that in
mind and that's your front page news. You guys can

Speaker 5 (30:59):
All right now when we come back, we have the Ellis's,
the Vaal and Kadeen Ellis and we're gonna talk to
the next It don't go anywhere.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning everybody.
It's DJ Envy.

Speaker 5 (31:13):
Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the God. We are the Breakfast Club
Longla Roasters here as well. We got some special guests
in the building. We have the Vault and Kadeen Ellis.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
Good morning, my people.

Speaker 15 (31:23):
Morning.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
I'm blessed Black and Holly Favorite. How y'all fling.

Speaker 12 (31:26):
I'm happy to be back.

Speaker 13 (31:30):
It's a glow that I feel like I have the
minute I hit La Guardia Airport. It's just being back
home in Brooklyn. I do feel like it brings us
to life again.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Now y'all are here for a bunch of different things.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
But y'all rebranded the dead Ass Podcast to ellis Ever
after discuss discuss the growth of that title.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Yeah, well it was it was a lot for us.
So when we first started that Ass podcast, it was just, you.

Speaker 16 (31:52):
Know, it was like we were joking about men versus
women and what husbands feel versus wives feeld. But over
the course of six years, we watched that exploded on
the internet. And we don't want to take credit for
being a reason why there's a man versus woman debate,
but this is annoying. Yeah, we kind of just feel
like we want to put out content that people can say,
let's elevate and move forward. So let's talk about topics
that really affect us. For example, we we will take

(32:15):
credit for this. In twenty seventeen, we've blogged our third
son being born at home right, and we've blogged the
whole process for about six months, and a new study
came out that as of twenty eighteen, home births in
black community have gone up, and we feel like that's
a direct correlation for us showing young black girls like
there's a different option and The reason why that happened

(32:36):
was because with our first child, we almost lost k
and she had to have twenty four stitches of service
my bad, let.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
Me not take me stitches.

Speaker 15 (32:45):
It is.

Speaker 16 (32:47):
Yeah, she had to have emergency surgery right after pregnancy.
And we did a lot of studies on black maternal
health and were like, let's just use our platform to
focus on positivity. So we said l several after is
to change, because this is us, after we've evolved as humans.
On the therapy, work on being a better couple, work
on being a better people.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
So that's what it's about. So had nothing to do
a moving out of New York and not even using
the term dead ass no more. We still use that.

Speaker 9 (33:12):
Sure.

Speaker 13 (33:13):
And the crazy part about it, we had to fight
for the name dead ass initially because you know, if
you're not from New York and if you're at the
companies that have, you know, mostly white folks, that's just like,
we don't know what that means. How will we ever
get ad dollars behind a name like that?

Speaker 12 (33:26):
They're not going to subscribe to that.

Speaker 13 (33:28):
So there was a lot of explaining that had to
be done, but we started we stayed true to it.
I think part of us really didn't want to detach
from that New York persona for a long time.

Speaker 12 (33:37):
But it's time.

Speaker 4 (33:38):
I do like who made that applectively?

Speaker 16 (33:44):
I'll take credit for it, but we always do everything collective,
even dead ass like we sit down and talk about
it and we're like, what you think about this?

Speaker 2 (33:50):
What you think about that? We had a couple of
the options.

Speaker 16 (33:52):
We also liked House of Ellis, but we liked that
list of a laughter because it was the evolution of
after what after all the bullsh you know what I'm saying,
after all the talking about what we had to do
to get to this point, and if you ever followed us,
that's what we're known for.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
We're honest about what we've been doing, what we've done.
We don't hold back. Tell us what you doing?

Speaker 13 (34:11):
Three years in the game, almost fifteen married.

Speaker 4 (34:14):
Yeah, you know.

Speaker 13 (34:14):
People have literally watched us over the past maybe what
decade on social media, just putting our life out there,
sharing with people, hoping people can relate.

Speaker 4 (34:23):
Y'all are definitely the reference point for a lot of
people because even my son's dad Rome, oh my god,
my first done. My first son's dad man, he man,
you and you gotta listen with this one and even
y'all shows. He follows everything y'all doing. He has five
kids by five different you know minds, you know, and
he'll listen to one of y'all poll gusts and he'll

(34:44):
be calling them telling him no, no, no, because with develop
because he said daydad, you know, and he gets hung
creates a lot of arguments, but he ain't the developed type. Yeah,

(35:04):
you should just tell them listen to the podcast.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
I don't try to freak. You ain't thea.

Speaker 4 (35:09):
But because y'all real life though, like y'all, the way
you've been going through stuff on y'all. I watched y'a
channel a lot. The way y'all deal with stuff. Y'all
were the first time that I saw a young black
couple that was still like regular like and like, I
was like, oh, they probably hang wu I will go
at and stuff like that.

Speaker 13 (35:24):
And we still do.

Speaker 9 (35:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (35:25):
We walk around and people be like, why y'all without security?
Why y'all?

Speaker 17 (35:28):
And I'm like, cause it's my hood, Like what you mean?

Speaker 4 (35:30):
You know?

Speaker 12 (35:33):
Felt like he could relate to y'all because that's a
big thing for your audience.

Speaker 16 (35:36):
I will say this about room like the vown now,
wasn't the divour when I first started? Okay, the divour
when I first started was probably close to the room
I was. I don't know him, but I was immature.
I lacked emotional intelligence. I didn't understand, you know. But

(35:58):
I take pride in showing the growth because I don't
want anyone to ever be like I got to be
perfect to be accepted or Nah, I was never perfect.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
I'm not perfect.

Speaker 16 (36:08):
I'm again hopefully y'all give me grace, if you know
what I'm saying. And that's what I want people to
walk around the earth feeling like you don't got to
be perfect for people to just accept you.

Speaker 2 (36:17):
And if you expecting everybody to accept you, that's a
problem anyway.

Speaker 13 (36:21):
Yeah, No, to be honest, we almost just didn't do
the podcast anymore. So last February we had a bunch
of live sold out shows Apollo. It was like historic,
it was great. So we're like, you know what, why
don't we go out on a high?

Speaker 12 (36:33):
You know, we did all we've done.

Speaker 13 (36:35):
I feel like we've spoken aloud, you know, dealt with
our issues publicly as a form of therapy through the podcast, right,
and we felt like we've done all we had to
do in the podcast space, and people literally like, you
guys cannot do is ut to your point. We meet
people on the regular at the airport, random places, and
they're like, y'all can't stop doing this because you have

(36:56):
saved my marriage or you've showed me that I'm able
to open up to my partner and bring up these
topics that are once taboo, were uncomfortable to discuss, you know,
and people say, if they wanted the value, you have
to be a Kadeen and vice versa.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
So tell Row make sure that he's on the straight
and era.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
And I think one thing that, uh, that is great
about what y'all do is just open lines of communication.
That's it now, regardless of you're in a you want
to start a podcast, that's what you should have with
your partner. If y'all want to just sit in y'all
living room every day and say, Okay, we're gonna talk
for two hours, but.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
We're going to talk. We may not record it and
put it out, they're going to talk. It's just about communication.

Speaker 4 (37:31):
Encouraging that absolutely, And you know it's funny.

Speaker 16 (37:33):
Most people when we first started the podcast thought it
was so crazy. Y'all talk to each other and I'm
like to talk about sex, you talk about money.

Speaker 12 (37:44):
How could you talk to her like that?

Speaker 4 (37:46):
Like people were offended for me the remember, they felt
like you were like the super controlling, like arrogant.

Speaker 12 (37:55):
This is something about me, thet thing from it.

Speaker 16 (37:59):
But I had that's but I get it right, and
I had to accept that because you have to show
people over time, right. You can't expect people when you
first put something out to say know who I am.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
It took years.

Speaker 16 (38:09):
We did our podcast for seven years fifteen seasons, won
a Webby Award, but it took time. In the beginning,
it was so much like pushback of arrogant de val
he always talks down. But what I realized they weren't
used to seeing an educated black man speak about his emotions.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
And it triggered a lot of women.

Speaker 16 (38:26):
You know what I'm saying, Like that's the fact, Like
I'm not gonna sit back here and not say what
I need and require, because I'm also gonna ask her
what she needs and require and I'm going to deliver
on that. But now this is my turn to talk
about it. And a lot of people didn't like it,
but now it's come more normalized. Like I used to
think when we lived in New York, I heard Charlamagne
every morning talk about mental health. My sons now know
about mental health. It's not taboo anymore, and they speak

(38:50):
their feelings. Mom, I don't feel good about this. I'm
nervous about that. Now we want to keep showing young
men like that's okay, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 13 (38:57):
To be like that, especially when within our community, black
men and women are always pitted against each other. And
if we want our black men to open up to us,
why not create a space for them to do that.
So I'm like Devaal, I want you to be honest
with me. It doesn't have to be a little honesty,
but I want you to be honest and transparent about
how you feel because I'm not trying to guess.

Speaker 15 (39:14):
Like.

Speaker 13 (39:14):
The good thing about Val and II for the years
that we've been together is that we've always given each
other a choice, and the choice happens because we are
fully communicative about the.

Speaker 12 (39:23):
Things that we want and need.

Speaker 13 (39:24):
So every morning I wake up with the choice to
be here, and I decide to be here, and it's
been working for us.

Speaker 5 (39:31):
We are more with daval and Kadeen Ellis. When we
come back, it's the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
The morning morning.

Speaker 5 (39:35):
Everybody is DJ NV, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the God.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
We are the breakfast Club. We're been kicking in with
the Elisis, Davao and Kadeen Ellis Jess.

Speaker 4 (39:44):
I love how transparent y'all are with the public and
even with y'all fans, Like you know, y'all built such
like a fan base for like marriages and you know,
people who been even divorced, like look for y'all to
y'all for advice because y'all put it out there, the
highs and the lows. How do y'all handle disagreements in
front of your kids though, because if y'all y'all real
with us, right, how is it? And then you know, parents,

(40:07):
you got two types of situations like that. A lot
of parents don't like their kids to see them.

Speaker 16 (40:13):
It's not really so we handle disagreements as a family
spot on. If we disagree on something and the kids
are there, we're gonna have a discussion. And the minute
we have a discussion, I will go to Jackson and say,
you see how I spoke to your mom you see
how I don't got to be disrespectful.

Speaker 2 (40:28):
You see how I don't gotta raise my voice.

Speaker 16 (40:29):
Do you understand what it means to have empathy towards
someone who thinks differently than you? And they be like, yeah,
I see it, And I'm like, now I understand this.
Me and your mom may disagree, but that's my wife.
Because they going to be somebody's husbands someday, they have
to see what it's like. So I never wanted to
put my kids in a situation where I was My
parents never argued in front of me. But then they

(40:51):
will go in the room and be screaming and hollering.
I'll be like, yo, what is going on? Then your
pops come out you like that, why are you talking
to mom like that? He looking at you like, boy,
that's my wife.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Right, And I'm all right.

Speaker 16 (41:03):
But then that didn't give me any emotional maturity to
deal with my wife for the first five years. So
there was a couple of days where I came home
and I was making making money, she wasn't working, and
the fool wasn't ready because.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
She had Jackson, And I'm like, what's going on? Because
I'm thinking that this is what a man is supposed
to be. And she was like, from, well, that's not
the response.

Speaker 4 (41:24):
My dad starts to go with.

Speaker 16 (41:27):
It just started to realize that that's what that wasn't
the way the stuff that we saw growing up and
we just felt like if I emulate this, I'll be successful.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Wasn't making me feel good. We didn't know no better
we did it. I mean that's what you was learning from,
just observing, like there's no manual that comes with any
of it.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
That's why, you know, I give my father a lot
of grace because when me and my father had a
real conversation and he told me about his mental health
issues and I knew about his substance, it just made
me realize, Oh, he just the man trying to figure
it out like I was a.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
Man two months ago.

Speaker 12 (41:59):
My dad stayed with us with oh, yeah, that's a
good story.

Speaker 16 (42:01):
And I'm gonna try to talk about this without crying
because I watched my dad and my mom came and
it was the same thing happened, and my dad was
kind of short with my mom and I was in
the car and now I'm grown, so I'm driving, my
dad gets short my mom and I'm like Yo, you
having a little tantrum for no reason. I need to
chill right, And my dad looking at me like I'm
still your pops. But he's still like you know what.
We talk about this later. We go in the living

(42:22):
room and we have like a three hour conversation and
just like your dad, he was telling me all the
things he'd been through, all his fears, all his worries.
And for the first time I saw my father of
a human and I said, Yo, you were just trying
to do that. You got married at twenty one, you
had me at twenty two and my brother at twenty four.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
Like who taught you?

Speaker 16 (42:39):
My grandfather was an army guy, didn't talk much. You
know what I'm saying, Dudes, I say not as I do,
follow my lead, like nobody spoke. So after speaking to
my father, man, my heart got so big because I
saw him as a person, like now he my dude.
Now like, yo, Pops, this tall And here's the funny part.
He said to me at the end of it, I
got to be better for your mom. I was like,
that's why I said I'm trying to do and not try,

(43:01):
because my mom is my heart. You know, you grow
up in the house and when my mom's small in status,
she's five too, and my dad is six footy, big right,
and I see sometimes my mom's I'm like dealing with
him today and I told her my mom don't have
a voice in his house because sometimes you don't give
her a voice. And he looked at me and said,
I'm gonna do better for your mom. And for the
rest of like the week, I saw him try. Now,

(43:22):
he still had to slip ups like we all do,
like I do, you know, but he tried, and I
was like, this is making me feel good because it's
not always about paying it forward. Sometimes you got paid back.
She's that generation how we do things now, and he's
open to it.

Speaker 13 (43:34):
Our podcast even we meet people who are older than
us and they will be like, wow, you guys. You
guys are younger, but you guys are talking about things
that I've experienced my entire life. We've actually opened up
the gates for discussions too with my side of family
as well. I've been from a Cariban household, like having
discussions about how you feel about things like that wasn't
really a thing.

Speaker 12 (43:54):
And my mom has opened up to her side.

Speaker 13 (43:57):
She hasn't even opened up to me, like, as a
family unit intergenerationally, we're starting to just heal, so that
way we can pass that down to our boys, you know,
and to piggyback off of Deval with your question, Jess.
They see sometimes the disagreements, but there's such an abundance
of love in our house that we sometimes get flat
for well, you know, grabbing my ass or you know,

(44:20):
walking past and kissing and you know kiro our second,
so we'll be like getting away from each other. But
the love is so abundant that the moments that we
may have disagreements, it far is like outweighed by what
they see between mom and dad and the love that
we share.

Speaker 12 (44:33):
I watch y'all Lovers by Shan.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
Yeah. Yeah. One of the things that y'all talked about.
I was like, you guys are so honest about this.
The conversation when he wants you to dress up like
the main Yeah, it was amaz.

Speaker 12 (44:45):
Right, Yeah, it'd be a different character.

Speaker 15 (44:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (44:48):
Use but when you said that, you like, y'all were
talking about the fact that when he actually do it,
you was like, I don't really know about that, but
we can meet in the middle. And he was like, no,
this is what I want and I'm I'm like, yo,
if I had that conversation in my group chat, my
friends probably would hate my person after that because they
would feel like, hold on, what's going on here? Because
you should be able to make your choices. But for you,

(45:09):
it was like, well, I want to make sure that
my men you know what I mean?

Speaker 12 (45:11):
Like, because who are we trying to appease the group
chat or my man?

Speaker 4 (45:15):
Yeah, I'm saying, but even talking about that publicly, I
was like, Oh, like they y'all be really getting to
well Lauren, don't she don't have a man like the
group chat.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
Potential. She was a girl in Atlanta.

Speaker 1 (45:34):
We had the Black Podcast Festival. She was surrounded by
studs and she went to Magic City got.

Speaker 2 (45:38):
With a scripple.

Speaker 4 (45:43):
Like you said, do you guys discuss how far you're
going to go in those real conversations because getting into
the bedroom, I was like, dang, nothing's off limits.

Speaker 13 (45:51):
I mean really yeah, everything is pretty much been on
the table with us, Like there's nothing that's and we
feel like if we show up as our true shelves,
nobody could.

Speaker 12 (45:59):
Hold nothing against me. Nobody.

Speaker 13 (46:01):
There's no room for you to create a narrative you know,
it's funny we have with the evolution of the podcast
now a new segment that we've introduced that people are
loving so far, and it's called op or no op,
and it's pretty much do you have an opinion about
this better?

Speaker 12 (46:16):
Or do you think?

Speaker 13 (46:16):
So we've realized that with social media, everybody got a phone,
everybody got so everybody got an opinion sometimes about things
you have nothing, no knowledge about, no facts, no expertise,
but everybody wants to comment on something.

Speaker 12 (46:33):
So we're trying to now push forward. By the Battle
of sexes is done.

Speaker 13 (46:37):
Now we're trying to push forward, thinking to myself, am
I a sound mind? Do I have the facts to
be able to comment on something and have an opinion?
Or can I just let some things go? You know,
Like let's start that as a culture, Like we don't always.

Speaker 12 (46:50):
Have to have an opinion about something.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
Yeah, like you I don't need to know if you
think you can beat a gorilla.

Speaker 13 (46:58):
Yeah, So let's doing that. Like what do I think
about I don't know what's the scenario of this happening
right now?

Speaker 12 (47:03):
Anything in Obama and the bar Obama stuff.

Speaker 4 (47:06):
And Kanye said, you know, he was because his pen.

Speaker 2 (47:12):
How you feel about that. I don't feel about about Kanye's.

Speaker 16 (47:18):
I'll do interviews, I'll go do press, and it'll be
pressed about the book, right, And the first thing I
sit down is like, you have a book coming out,
Kanye West said, and I'm like, what does that with
my bullet here? And they like, what you think about it?
I don't think about it then until you told me
about it, I didn't know what happened, So I don't
have an opinion on it. And it's like you don't

(47:38):
get from.

Speaker 2 (47:41):
Because let's think about the world bow, why wouldn't.

Speaker 4 (47:48):
Yeah, I'm coming on the family tip like, well, Kanye
said he can't see his kids because he came out.

Speaker 16 (47:53):
I would have asked, well, I mean that's that's how
they tried to like yeah, but ultimately is clickbait because
what they wanted was to be like the vow talk
about Kanye.

Speaker 2 (48:00):
Yep, that's ultily what they wanted.

Speaker 16 (48:02):
So we're trying to create a trend where it's like, say,
for example, Charlamage just asked me thinking about it, and
then the interview goes, I don't have an opinion.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
And then disappointed want to hit yeah, I don't want
to talk about that. I don't want to talk about
any of that.

Speaker 5 (48:18):
We got more with the Elis Is when we come
back d Vaal and Kadeen Ellis, it's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning joining to everybody. It's DJ Envy Jes, Hilarry is,
Charlamagne the God.

Speaker 2 (48:27):
We are the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 5 (48:29):
We're still kicking it with Daval and Kadeen Ellis, the
host of the podcast Ellis Ever after Val you said
you wanted to bring up something on air.

Speaker 16 (48:36):
Yes, Lauren brought up the sex thing. And I do
want to bring up this point. Right, if a man
says this is what I required, this is what I want,
the first thing in the group chat all the girls
is not you should be able to have a choice, right.
But as her husband, I asked her what do you want?

Speaker 2 (48:53):
What you required?

Speaker 16 (48:54):
And the minute she says what she wants to require,
there's no negotiating. So for us, well we're trying to
show people is that there doesn't have to be a
battle of the sexist. She said that her man want this,
She's gonna do it. He said, his wife wants this,
he gonna do it.

Speaker 12 (49:09):
Why would we not want to do that for each other?

Speaker 16 (49:12):
For I'm not pledging allegiance to my gender. I'm pledging
allegiance to my partner.

Speaker 15 (49:16):
Like this is.

Speaker 16 (49:18):
Make sure I get that on came and what I'm
saying that when I've seen that, I'm not pledging allegiance
to my gender, pledging allegiance to my partner.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
Partner.

Speaker 3 (49:35):
But no.

Speaker 16 (49:36):
But seriously, though, that's why it's easy for me to
just be honest, because it's just like if your boys
are upset, man, you said that, yeah, So like, well,
you're not gonna do nothing for me.

Speaker 2 (49:44):
So yeah, so my wife wants this, this is what
I'm doing. Could let me do you like.

Speaker 12 (49:56):
Those womens though, where you or her are like yeah, no,
but I I'm just sitting on it.

Speaker 4 (50:00):
I don't want to do that.

Speaker 16 (50:01):
Then we talk about it, and seriously, there's been times.
There's been times like I'm like, yo, yo, you ain't
gonna dress up you man.

Speaker 12 (50:08):
She was like, I'm like word raine check check, like range.

Speaker 2 (50:15):
Check, range check.

Speaker 16 (50:16):
But then in the morning, I'm gonna wake up and
I'm gonna be get a tap and I'm gonna open
my eyes and she's gonna be in that nurse outfit
or something.

Speaker 4 (50:23):
Because sometimes she's not in the mo.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
You's don't understand that.

Speaker 12 (50:26):
Man, businesses, this stuff going on.

Speaker 16 (50:29):
You know you ain't trying tonight, Okay, they always we
got the rest of our life, bro. Yeah, you know
what I'm saying, Like it's never a deal breaker, Like
if you want to do this tonight there, you wanna
be a problem. You don't want dress up tonight?

Speaker 2 (50:39):
Fine?

Speaker 16 (50:40):
But sometimes she'll be like, you know what, I ain't
dressed up tonight, but I'm gonna bless you yo, and
I dress up tomorrow. You know what I'm saying That
we talked about.

Speaker 4 (50:46):
You know, has there ever been a role that you
ain't want to play?

Speaker 2 (50:49):
You like, I ain't doing that. That's not not I got.
I got stories, bro, anything like you haven't dressed like
a white girl, and he dressed up like the black
guy like doctor she was, I was doctor Umar and
my bad. I know that's not sacrilegious to me. I
don't want to go there. That would actually be a

(51:11):
really good role player, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (51:15):
This was in California.

Speaker 2 (51:20):
Yes, I know that's what he was doing.

Speaker 3 (51:22):
Bro.

Speaker 2 (51:23):

like a photo shoot or something.

Speaker 16 (51:30):
This is funny, this is funny, right, she had did
a photo shoot with you. Now she had on these
hazel color contexts. She had this big curly like yeah,

She walked over all seductively like she had music. We
had a fireplace. She put the fireplace and she's.

Speaker 2 (52:29):
I'm sitting there like.

Speaker 16 (52:32):

and you got on this dirty ass leotard.

Speaker 13 (52:51):
That's this dusty ass leotar. I'm like, first of all,
it's not leotard, it's a teddy and I had.

Speaker 4 (53:06):
A stained up.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
It was no, I said, because it wasn't what I wanted.

Speaker 13 (53:12):
I was just mad.

Speaker 4 (53:13):
I was just mad.

Speaker 13 (53:14):
And I was like, so because you did not get
exactly what you asked for, I'm still here to do
the job.

Speaker 2 (53:19):
And she didn't even have heels on.

Speaker 16 (53:21):
So I got mad, right, So I got up and
I go in the bathroom. Right, But it just so happened.
When I walk in the bathroom, I seen all her
heels lined up in the closet. And we had just
moved to this big house.

Speaker 2 (53:29):
I said, you got all these heels, yet you ain't
put no heels on. So I'm going there and I
throw all the heels off the closet.

Speaker 4 (53:38):
I'm standing up.

Speaker 2 (53:38):
I was like, you got a big shoe up?

Speaker 4 (53:40):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 16 (53:41):
She says to me, look at your stupid ass in
there throwing heels around. You're still hard. That's what broke
me out of it. I looked at her, I started
laughing and we sung.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
After that. It was a rap. It was just like,
look at us.

Speaker 12 (53:58):
Like, look at I can't pick all the shoes.

Speaker 2 (54:02):
Yeah, so that's the shoes. We said that we picked
the shoes up. Then we got one time.

Speaker 13 (54:06):
It's like he asked for one thing and I was like, here,
I'm doing something else cute and he was like.

Speaker 4 (54:11):
Yeah, he was.

Speaker 7 (54:23):
No.

Speaker 4 (54:23):
Did y'all y'all never thought about doing the reality show.

Speaker 12 (54:27):
We've turned out do it on your YouTube channel.

Speaker 4 (54:31):
So it's crazy.

Speaker 2 (54:33):
We control everything everything.

Speaker 16 (54:35):
One thing I fear because we sat down with it
and I don't want to put producers out there. We
sat down with number of producers, right, this is always
the first thing. This is so and so I know,
I know y'all you're perfect.

Speaker 2 (54:46):
I get it right. So there's nothing that you don't have.

Speaker 16 (54:48):
Anybody like she's not And I'm like, the first meeting
you're coming to me and asking me things that disparaging
things that I can say about my wife, Like, I'm
not doing this. I got I got four sons, and
that's what you want me to do. No, I personally,
I know this is going to get some slack, But
I love Bill Cosby right, not for the things that
he did, but for what he represented. This man was

(55:09):
so brilliant in the fact that he had a black
psychologist on the set of The Cosby Show every day
to make sure that everything they put out didn't show
black people in a disparaging way. Right, Like, when you
think about The Cosby Show, a different world, Lil Bill,
this is the content we want to create. We have
a cartoon series that we've been pitching for about our
kids called The Ellises and the time Machine because we

(55:31):
wrote a book called The Ellisis and the time Machine.
Why do we have to say black lives matter? And
it's an animated series about history. These are the things
I want to do. I don't want to get on
television and argue with my wife about trivial stuff.

Speaker 2 (55:44):
I'm also not going to include my friends, right. For example,
your friends are just hilarious.

Speaker 11 (55:48):
What she like?

Speaker 16 (55:48):
I know that's the stuff they ask and I'm like,
I'm not doing that. So it's like we're not doing
the reality show thing unless we own it.

Speaker 2 (55:56):
Listen, man, the ball and ellis.

Speaker 1 (55:58):
I love talking to y'all because growing is then the
visuals is a lot by itself, but growing as a
couple is insaneess. And you're not constantly communicating, you know,
you might wake up one day and not know who
that person is. So we can learn anything from y'all.
Have to constantly communicate with your part.

Speaker 12 (56:12):
Yes, indeed, and thanks for growing with us.

Speaker 13 (56:14):
To Charlemage, I mean, we've been on the Breakfast Club
a couple of times the years, our third time.

Speaker 12 (56:18):
I appreciate you for always rocking with us.

Speaker 2 (56:20):
Appreciate it so great. Thank you. That's work.

Speaker 16 (56:26):
Thank you y'all making other people the same thing here,
like the things y'all are doing here talking about mental health.
I can't stand politics because it gets from my nerves.
But bringing the information to people that's all we can do.

Speaker 10 (56:39):
Right.

Speaker 16 (56:39):
The greatest thing you can give humans is inspiration, and
the Breakfast Club is inspiring people.

Speaker 2 (56:45):
I hope y'all know that we appreciate y'all and this
has been a part of our lives since living here.

Speaker 6 (56:50):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
Yes, my kids know y'all too.

Speaker 12 (56:54):
Listen, we keep them still very very New York.

Speaker 2 (57:00):
Let's bet she gets to me somebody that knows somebody.

Speaker 12 (57:08):
I'm a long girl that knows a little bit about everything.

Speaker 2 (57:11):
She'd be having the Latest on you, The Latest with
Lauren la Rosa. Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details.
Sometimes you have a little bit of everything. On the
Breakfast Club.

Speaker 4 (57:24):
Michelle Evans, who has come out and claimed and now
a civil suit that Shannon Sharp sexually as saught to her,
has spoken out in an interview about the allegations. Let's
take a listen to Michelle speaking on her alleged rape.

Speaker 6 (57:41):
What happened that day? It was fighting.

Speaker 10 (57:43):
It was the biggest argument that we ever got in.
You know, he was man handling me beforehand, and he
wanted to have sex, and I told him no because
you gave it to somebody else. I didn't only tell
him no, I told him why. He wouldn't take no
for an answer, so he overpowered me, put me to
my knes, put his peenuts in my mouth, and after
he got enough of that, he put me on the bed,

(58:06):
and you know, this was all a struggle. I had said, No,
it was the hardest. Yeah, this is too hard. I
remember he got dressed, he knew what he did, and
so you know, I just kind of escorted him out
the door.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Yeah, you just meling it.

Speaker 17 (58:26):
Now.

Speaker 2 (58:27):
I was about to smell. But the hell I sell
earlier though, I know.

Speaker 4 (58:32):
And then she talks about because I think a lot
of people have a question of why didn't she go
and file a police report at the time, she talks
about that as well as say, listen.

Speaker 10 (58:41):
He started coming at me. If I tell anybody, he'll
use everybody he knows to destroy me, which he basically has.
Then he started making other threats, threats against my life.
He just was so worried that it would get out,
and I wasn't going to do anything. He told me
he was watching me and all that. I just went
and got a protective order. Unfortunately, shortly after he dogsed
me and my aundress got out and I had somebody

(59:04):
stop by my apartment, and somebody came up to my
door and said shut up, screamed it at the top
of their lum and I had my daughter in there
right there, and I was like, oh no, And so
I went and I dropped it because also at my house,
somebody came to sat out front of in the driveway
while my daughter was there alone.

Speaker 4 (59:21):
Why didn't you file a police report when he raped you?

Speaker 10 (59:25):
Because I was scared for my life. Everybody he knows,
and he knows lots of police officers, so I didn't
know that if I went down there that that would
be one of the people that he knows.

Speaker 4 (59:35):
Now, this has been an interesting conversation following the claims
that have come from the fifty million dollar lawsuit that
was filed by the only fans woman that Shannon Shark
also named, because even in this interview, she speaks directly
to her and she's like, I know what you're going
through because the same thing happened to me.

Speaker 12 (59:54):
She you know, she mentioned that her address allegedly was leaked.

Speaker 4 (59:58):
She also talked about a time where, you know, she
was working at CNN and she and and Sharp had
you know, got in an interview with the job and
during the interview, he talked about the fact that the
protective order was dropped, but it was centered allegedly at
that time as if it was dropped because it was substantial.
She said that it went a different way, let's take
a listen to this last audio. But then he started
going on television.

Speaker 10 (01:00:17):
He came to my job turning broadcasting, went on TV
at CNN, and it was my job to put the
videos from up to YouTube for CNN. So I'm putting
up this video, and here I see Shannon at my
job talking about domestic violence, and the co host mentioned that, oh,
you had one that was just totally dropped. Made it
look like the police dropped it, you know, not that

(01:00:38):
I had gone down and withdrawn it. It created a
picture that wasn't accurate.

Speaker 4 (01:00:43):
Now she's she had asked for a protective order, which
would make it where he can't come within you know,
like a certain radius of her and things of that nature.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
So she did it back then, or she did she
did it back then, but.

Speaker 4 (01:00:55):
She said that she so, according to Michelle Evans, she
went to you know, police and said, can y'all just
drop this. I wanted to go away because she alleges
that she was basically being like taunted, like people will
pop up, and and her daughter was around, so she
didn't want her daughter, like, you know, anything to happen.
She feared for her life allegedly, right, but When Shannon
Sharp's team responded to this, they called her claims ridiculous

(01:01:16):
and completely without merit. They say that, you know, and
then they point to the fact that this case is
still ongoing, the defamation suit that she filed in twenty
twenty three, and that a judge denied her request for
an order of protection, and he had mentioned this in
the beginning of probably like a couple of weeks ago.
He dropped the statement that I received, and they called this,
you know, just people coming out of the woodworks to
try and share a connection with Shannon Sharp in attempt

(01:01:38):
to profit off of a relationship. They say, it's, you know,
her alleged targeting is purposeful, designed to create a fabricated narrative.
But you know, when this video came out, people were
because we were tying figure out who Miche Evans was.
I think a lot of people didn't remember that suit
back in twenty thirteen. I'm twenty twenty three, so.

Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
Which is all familiar so much?

Speaker 4 (01:01:56):
Did that white lady name is Michelle Evans? Yes, that
the showing the lines. She hasn't confirmed that she was
or was not the Michelle a lot, but I doubt
it because they've been. They've been going through legal litigations
for almost fifteen years now, so I doubt that he
would have been on Live with Homegirl.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
I hope not. Well, he said twenty twenty three.

Speaker 12 (01:02:12):
But it's all like all of their issues began in
twenty ten.

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
Yes, and that's when there was Since twenty ten to now,
there's been a protective order that was then not a
protective any order anymore in the defamation.

Speaker 12 (01:02:24):
Loss of that issue. She her husband with him, Yes,
that's what she says.

Speaker 2 (01:02:29):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (01:02:30):
Monique over the weekend two had something to say about
the Shannon Sharp stuff on stage. I believe she was
in Indianapolis. You know, she's still torn and hitting the stages.
Let's take a listen.

Speaker 12 (01:02:41):
Apparently yes, yeah, she said, yeah, we can't believe here
well white So yeah, she.

Speaker 4 (01:02:52):
Was talking about the clip from her on Club Sha
Shae where she's telling him to leave the young girls
and the white women alone. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:03:00):
Amzing.

Speaker 4 (01:03:01):
So all of this is like one thing after the
other with the Shannon Sharp situation. But he still is
denying all allegations.

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
Have said he said anything recently I heard so.

Speaker 4 (01:03:10):
The last statement that he dropped it was it was
like last week early last week, which was what I
would just read from. They basically gave this long statement
that said all of this is purposeful. These women know
what they're doing. Allegedly, it's a shakedown. We're not going
to keep addressing these things because these are fabricated stories.
And every time I reached back out for any additional statements,
I did do that today because of the interview, and
I did it on Sunday.

Speaker 12 (01:03:30):
They normally point to this statement. But I'll see if
they give me anything additional.

Speaker 4 (01:03:33):
But Michelle Evans is still married right, Oh, I.

Speaker 12 (01:03:37):
Don't know if she's still with her man or not.

Speaker 2 (01:03:40):
And didn't she say something in interview like I don't
know if I was cheating at the time or something
like that. It was a weird line.

Speaker 12 (01:03:46):
Weird She couldn't remember. I thought that that was weird too.

Speaker 4 (01:03:48):
She couldn't remember whether she actually broke up with because
she said she allegens that Shannon Sharp wanted her to
break up with her husband, but she got upset because
he had a girl in his house that he moved
out and then moved another girl in and she didn't know,
so she didn't want to have sex with him. Allegedly
today when he showed up and allegedly raped her because
she was mad because he was dealing with other women
but wanted her to himself allegedly, but she couldn't remember
whether she cut it off with her husband or not.

Speaker 5 (01:04:09):
Yeah, all right, well that is the latest with Laurence Charlamagne.
Wo you giving your donkey too?

Speaker 15 (01:04:15):
Man?

Speaker 1 (01:04:15):
Four after the four after the hour, speaking of discressed
white women. We need Shiloh Hendrix to come to the
front of the congregtion. We'd like to have a word
with her. Please, all right, we'll get to that next.
It's the breakfast club.

Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
Good morning, you're checking out the breakfast club, Charlaine say

(01:04:47):
Please don't keep to day today.

Speaker 1 (01:04:50):
Well at sharing donkey today for Monday. May fifth single
to my goes to a stink ass male named Shiloh Hendrix.
Oh the mayonnaises?

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
Have you with this?

Speaker 1 (01:05:01):
One ladies in Ghettoman see there is a human jar
of Hellman's amongst us, and her name is Shiloh Hendrix. Now,
from what we've gathered, Shiloh appeared to herl a racist
slur at a black child.

Speaker 2 (01:05:12):
Okay, she appeared to call a.

Speaker 1 (01:05:13):
Five year old child the N word at a parking
Minnesota because she said the five year old took her
son's stuff. Now, according to the person who recorded the video,
charmeke Omar, he said the little boy is on the
autism spectrum. So she called this five year old little
black boy the N word because the little boy allegedly
took her son's stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:05:33):
Let's go to KTTC news for the report. Please.

Speaker 18 (01:05:36):
The woman accused of using racial slurs against a boy
at a Rochester park captured in a now viral video,
appears to have identified herself publicly in a sizeable crowdfunding effort.
A user on a crowdfunding site identifying as Shiloh Hendrix
has increased her fundraising goal to one million dollars. Regarding
the incident at the park, the user writes, quote, I

(01:05:57):
recently had a kid steal from my eighteen month old
sun's diaper bag.

Speaker 12 (01:06:01):
At a park.

Speaker 18 (01:06:02):
I called the kid out for what he was end quote.
KTPC reported yesterday that Rochester police are actively looking into
the viral video showing a woman holding a small child
making racist slurs in reference to another child at the
playground who she claims had taken something that belonged to
her child. The person recording the video alludes to the

(01:06:22):
child being targeted as having special needs. On its fundraising page,
the NAACP acknowledged the woman in questions fundraising effort, writing quote,
many of the comments from her supporters celebrate and justify
her hate end quote.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
So much to unpack here, First of all, completely unnecessary, Okay,
excessive use of racism.

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
Listen, there's going to be times that the biggotan us rears.
It's ugly.

Speaker 1 (01:06:45):
Hey, Okay, there are going to be times when random
acts of racist thoughts pop up in your mind. Okay,
that doesn't mean you can act on him. I'm not
going to sit in and lie of y'all and act
like I haven't thought about these things. Okay, white man
cut you up in traffic, you don't think to yourself
ass cracks.

Speaker 2 (01:06:58):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:06:59):
Now that Universal Studios last weekend literally about to get
on the elevator with my family.

Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
In this couple, a man and a woman. I believe
they were Mexican.

Speaker 1 (01:07:06):
They came running and cut in front of us and
just jumped on the elevator and closed the door. The
first thing that came to my mind was, and I see,
if I call liights, I'll be wrong Mexican.

Speaker 2 (01:07:15):
You mean I got eyes? Hell's wrong with you? But
listen to me. Everything I told you was thoughts. Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:07:21):
I didn't act on anything because I'm not that kind
of person. Regardless of what my mind tells me. From
time to time, I attempt to be the change I
want to see in the world. I believe in equality
for all. So there's no reason on God's green earth
other than the mental illness called racism for Shiloh to be.

Speaker 2 (01:07:35):
Calling this little five year old boy the N word
out loud.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
Okay, Now, shar mak Omar asked Shiloh a valid question,
he said, and I'm paraphrasing because this child taking your
son's stuff. Merrit, you calling him the N word? She replied,
If that's what he's gonna act like, let me tell
you something. We all know that Nigga's going nig But
this little boy is five, okay. His behavior is simply
that of a five year old. What do you mean, Shiloh,

(01:08:01):
If that's what he's gonna act like he's five, okay,
five year olds act like five year olds at five,
they're just beginning to understand social and emotional development. So
if he took something from your son, then you simply
find his parents, tell them and then they can tell
their child.

Speaker 2 (01:08:16):
Don't do things like that. That's not yours. It's simple.

Speaker 1 (01:08:19):
But you are racist, So you was just looking for
a reason to let the N word fly. Now would
you like to hear the actual audio from the park.

Speaker 2 (01:08:27):
Let's listen.

Speaker 4 (01:08:30):
What about.

Speaker 2 (01:08:33):
A little kid? You call him a little child? Are
you about to hit him? You're chasing him?

Speaker 13 (01:08:40):
Here?

Speaker 16 (01:08:41):
My son stopped, so that gives you that I have
to call the child five years old and inward, that's
what you're gonna call him.

Speaker 2 (01:08:50):
You know that's a hate speech. You gonna don't give it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:55):
Lord, have mercy. Now, let's talk about the fundraising. Chilo
decided to become the okay. She set up a fundraising
page for herself, which she titled helped Me Protect my family? Okay,
in case you missed the news report. She claimed in
the pay the description that she is now in a
dire situation. She says, I recently had a kid steal
from my eighteen month old son's.

Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
Diaper bag in the park. I called the kid out
for what he was.

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
Then she claimed that members of her members of her
family are being attacked and her personal information, including her
address and phone number, has been leaked. You aren't being attacked, Shiloh,
You are being called out and held accountable because you
called a little five year old boy to n word
and accountability feels like an attack when you're not ready
to acknowledge your toxic behavior.

Speaker 2 (01:09:37):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:09:37):
Shiloh concluded her message by asking for funds to assist
in protecting my family and potentially relocate yet another example
that free speech ain free. Why are you using words
that you can't afford to you, Shiloh now. Shiloh's fundraising
goal was originally set for fifty grand, but as you
heard of the news report, it was increased to one
million dollars after that initial amount was reached, and as

(01:10:00):
of yesterday, Sunday, May fourth, she has raised over six
hundred and twenty four thousand dollars because she called a
little five year old boy to N word. And you
wonder why some people spell America with three ks. Now,
the first thing I did was looking to the fundraisers
of policies and give sin go.

Speaker 2 (01:10:19):
That's the name of the platform, Give sin Go, Give
sin Go said.

Speaker 1 (01:10:22):
The company does not endorse or condone the personal views
are actions of individual campaign organizers all their supporters, nor
do we control the motivations of donors. Basically, is nothing
they can do about it. Okay, there is no violation
on their end. But you do know give sin go
that you are complicit in rewarding racism.

Speaker 2 (01:10:42):
Call it what it is.

Speaker 1 (01:10:43):
They are rewarding Shiloh's racism. Only in America can you
call a five year old boy to N word? Okay,
get called out on it and didn't play victim and
raise almost seven hundred thousand dollars because of your biggie
Trans's crazy. Well, this is a free country, ladies, and gettlemen,
and there is such thing as freedom of speech. Even
though we know there is a cost to every word
that comes out of your mouth, some people are willing

(01:11:05):
to pay that price. And in the case of Shiloh Hendrix,
she didn't pay the price. She actually ended up getting paid.
Just always remember though, freedom of speech works both ways.
So with that said, please let Chelsea Handle give Shiloh
Hendrix the biggest he haw.

Speaker 2 (01:11:18):
Hee haw hee haw. That is way too much, Dan Maynes.
Let Kathy Griffin get in on that too.

Speaker 4 (01:11:24):
Please give this giant jar Mail the biggest he haw.

Speaker 2 (01:11:29):
What about my guy, Chris Rock, You got something to say?

Speaker 9 (01:11:31):
Cock?

Speaker 2 (01:11:32):
As is my girl still working the drive through? She
working the drive to today?

Speaker 10 (01:11:36):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:11:37):
Oh okay, just making sure everybody gets the right to
express their freedom of speech.

Speaker 2 (01:11:41):
All right, that's what's crazy disgusting.

Speaker 5 (01:11:44):
All right, thank you for that donkey today, Yes, indeed,
now when we come back today is national Silence, the
Shame Day.

Speaker 2 (01:11:49):
Shante do ye.

Speaker 5 (01:11:51):
That's right, Shanty Dolls to be joining us. We're gonna
talk to her next. She's a mental health advocate ex
music industry vet. She has so much to do with
our outcast and those early days. Were going to talk
to when we come back at the Breakfast Club on morning,
the Breakfast Club, Good morning, everybody is DJ Envy just hilarious,
Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club. It is

(01:12:12):
mental health awareness month, as it is what we do
each and every May May fifth, to be exact, Silence
the Shame Day, and we have a very special guest
Shanty Welcome.

Speaker 2 (01:12:23):
How are you ho are you feeling?

Speaker 15 (01:12:25):
I'm feeling good. Actually, so ten years ago I almost
took my own life. Well, it'll be ten years in September,
so this is like my year of rebirth, That's what
I'm calling it. And I'm in such a good place,
amath in space, and I have really accepted being like
this mental health advocate and doing this work and not
being stressed about going back in the music industry, even
though I'm still proud of my boys, like Yahkast, you

(01:12:46):
got it, you gonna be inducted into the Hall of Fame,
and so it's just it's good.

Speaker 17 (01:12:49):
I'm feeling really good. Thanks for asking.

Speaker 1 (01:12:51):
Before we get into Silence the Shame Day and Mental
Health Awareness Month, I do want to ask you what
does Outcast being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame mean to you?

Speaker 2 (01:13:00):
Because you was there from day one?

Speaker 17 (01:13:01):
It means everything.

Speaker 15 (01:13:02):
They zero Actually, yeah, plays Ball was the first record
I ever worked, and so shout out to Andre Big,
the late Rico, a organized noise. It's like the holy
grail right of music. And so they finally achieved that
and I couldn't be more proud and just to have
been there passing out like cassettes doing freaking neck and
you know the Southern playlist that could get the documentary.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
Documentary was on that. Yeah, I see they were talking
about you giving out. You have to go to get
back today.

Speaker 15 (01:13:29):
It's crazy, like whenever I see too Short. He was like, yo,
you gave me that cassette and was like, Yo, check
out my new group Outcasts.

Speaker 17 (01:13:34):
They're gonna be dope. And we laugh about it all
the time.

Speaker 1 (01:13:37):
Did you know that Outcasts would become the global iconic superstars.

Speaker 2 (01:13:41):
That they became.

Speaker 15 (01:13:42):
I mean, you never know, right, But I had the
O on my chest right, the L on my chest
LA face Outcasts, and I just was really committed and
dedicated because I knew that the A was gonna support them.

Speaker 17 (01:13:54):
It was a different sound and like you know, in.

Speaker 15 (01:13:56):
Atlanta, we grew up supporting East Coast rap West Coast,
but we didn't really have our own even though we
had people like Shaddy, they hadn't really received national attention, right,
And we will always wear like Dodger's hats or Yankees hats.
But finally we could wear like the Falcons, you know,
logo in the gear and the Braves gear because Big
Boy Andre made that cool and they really brought like

(01:14:17):
Atlanta to the world like us she's doing now on
his tour right, he bringing the aid to the world.
But Outcasts set that up initially and really transform hip
hop absolutely. Now, I know they transformed Southern hip hop,
but look at like a lot of the artists that
are still influential, they're still from the South, and so
to have been at the forefront of that and been
right there with them, like I can't explain it, like
it kind of solidified even just me in my journey

(01:14:39):
and what I've been able to contribute to the music cultures.

Speaker 1 (01:14:42):
Is arguably the greatest hip hop group of all time
and one of the greatest groups period in music of
all time.

Speaker 2 (01:14:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:14:50):
You know, so when you started the show, you were
talking about your rebirth right you thought about committing suicide
ten years ago. Now with this day and age, what
do you tell somebody that's possibly be thinking the same thing.
You know, it's stressful, you know they're looking at the
price of everything going up, it's hard to get a job.
They're looking at politics and they might feel left out.

(01:15:10):
They might feel like there's no place for them. So
what do you tell that person, especially in this social
media world where nobody wants to be your friend and
it's a very evil place, what do you tell that
person that individual?

Speaker 15 (01:15:20):
First of all, it's like honeor your feelings. If you're
not feeling good, you gotta acknowledge that right I coin
this new little acronym rapping through your problems. The R
is being able to recognize those unfamiliar feelings. The A
and RAP is acknowledging and accepting right that something right,
I don't feel like myself. And the P is being
able to process through those feelings with a licensed professional

(01:15:43):
counselor or someone you know that can actually help you,
even if you call your PCP, your primary doctor, say
I'm not feeling like myself. So you gotta be able
to recognize, accept and acknowledge those feelings and understand.

Speaker 17 (01:15:54):
That you got to protect your peace at all costs.

Speaker 15 (01:15:56):
You got to be unapologetic right now, more so than because,
like you said, like we're getting hit in a lot
of different directions and people be like, oh, yeah, we
all in this together.

Speaker 13 (01:16:05):
Not really.

Speaker 2 (01:16:08):
We might be in the same storm, but wean.

Speaker 15 (01:16:10):
In the same boat, right, And whether it's socioeconomic factors,
lack of access to care, like, it's not the same,
and we can't pretend that it's the same. And I
know we have people that you know want to help
and do more, but you gotta dig deep inside yourself
because even when I was going through my suicidal ideation,
I had to dig into my faith in my spirituality,

(01:16:30):
and I had to also talk to people and let
people in. So that's truly important. And then I tell people,
you gotta remove things that aren't serving you anymore. You
can't just be a people pleaser, like let go of
the scrolling, the doom scrolling and all of that and
really focus and be present with yourself. And sometimes therapy
isn't for everyone, but doing like sound baths or getting
out walking immersing yourself in nature, like all of that

(01:16:52):
really matters. And like for me now, if I'm not
feeling good because I still go through my moments, yeah,
I'll just get up and go outside and take a walk,
or I tell people like, hey, I need a minute,
and it's okay. That's your time, that's your mind, that's
your body, that's your spirit. So you gotta really take
ownership of your mental health and wellness because every day,
y'all is something different, Like I'm like, am I in
a movie like that gets scripted into something I didn't

(01:17:14):
sign up for, because it's really scary. I know you
can't believe everything you see on social media, but I
try to go to reputable.

Speaker 17 (01:17:20):
Outlets, right, like the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 15 (01:17:22):
But I saw on one of the other outlets that
federal government is considering like canceling one billion dollars of
funding for mental health for students, being able to provide
additional counselors and that sort of thing in school systems
across the nation.

Speaker 17 (01:17:35):
And that's really scary. And we know how mental health
is affecting young kids because of this little thing right here, right.

Speaker 15 (01:17:40):
And I don't just I don't only blame social media,
but it's a lot of pressure and these kids need
the support. So y'all, we gotta fight back and fight
back in terms of protecting your peace, getting the help
you need, reaching out to organizations like Silence and Shame.
There's a super dope lady I met last week at
the Accelerate Her conference in Miami. Her name is Ashante

(01:18:01):
and she does a lot of healing, and so she
just talked about the importance of like really immersing yourself
in these healing practices with everything that's going on, right,
and so I'm recommitting myself right to whatever I'm doing
is giving time for Shanti. If I got to set
an appointment at three o'clock during the day for Shanty
to like step away and take a moment and breathe
and get a massage or do something like you just gotta.

Speaker 17 (01:18:21):
Do it, y'all?

Speaker 2 (01:18:22):
What do you advise for people to to find their
happy place?

Speaker 6 (01:18:24):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:18:25):
So I realized, like, my biggest happy place is my family, right,
I can cut off. I enjoy watching my daughter's dance.
I enjoy watching my son play soccer. I enjoy talking
to the kids cooking. So I found my happy place, right.
How do you tell somebody to find their happy place where?

Speaker 2 (01:18:40):
You know, how do you do that? Because it has
to be a place where they just let go and
release a hundred percent.

Speaker 15 (01:18:43):
But think about some of the most joyful times, and
I know everybody's life wasn't the same, So let me
start with that. Some people did not have a happy upbringing,
and I'm sorry for that, right if that was your
truth and your journey. But if you did have fun
when you were growing up, go back to when you
were like eight years old, like what.

Speaker 4 (01:19:01):
Whatever?

Speaker 17 (01:19:02):
But you know me, what do you and what did
you used to do to make you happy?

Speaker 1 (01:19:08):
Playing outside? That's why I love grounding so much. I
tell the dots that all the time. Take your shoes
offespecially now they just want to take your shoes off,
take your socks off, go walking around barefoot in the grass.

Speaker 2 (01:19:16):
Just run around the yard there.

Speaker 1 (01:19:18):
Ride your bike. Think about how joy as you felt
as a kid when you simply played outside.

Speaker 15 (01:19:23):
I was out of my cousin's house the other day
and I started playing with the rub with Cbe and
I was like, yeah, I forgot how much I love
this and it had me going for like an hour.

Speaker 17 (01:19:30):
But just find things that used to bring you joy.

Speaker 2 (01:19:33):
Get your Bobbie doll Jess here.

Speaker 4 (01:19:35):
Oh I'm already happying over joyild.

Speaker 2 (01:19:39):
That is so important.

Speaker 5 (01:19:41):
Absolutely, how we got more with Shanty does when we
come back. Today is National Silence to Shame day, So
don't go anywhere.

Speaker 2 (01:19:47):
It's the breakfast Club. Come morning, everybody, it's DJ Envy
jes hilarious, Charlomagne the God. We are the Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking with shanty Dos. Today is National Silence
the Shame Day, Charlamagne, I want to ask you this
Shundi Boss suicide.

Speaker 1 (01:20:01):
Like sometimes I'm sure you're familiar with the mail Robbins
let them theory, right, which is basically, let people make
their own choices whatever they want to do. So sometimes
you hear adults complaining, you know, nothing is ever going
right for them. They all they're always telling you, you know,
about all the bad that's happening in their world.

Speaker 2 (01:20:15):
They talk to you.

Speaker 1 (01:20:16):
About wanting to commit suicide, and you strangely start to
understand where they where they're where they're coming from. Oh yeah,
you know, and you realize encouraging them to get help
isn't working.

Speaker 2 (01:20:27):
So do you just let those people make their own choices?

Speaker 15 (01:20:29):
Like that's a that's a really great question. It's a
tough question at the same time. You know the thing
about it, the reason why with silence and shame, we
try to provide as many resources as possible, but you
can't make someone do something right that they don't want
to do, but you can try to be a positive
influence in their lives. And so I've talked to people
you know who have been contemplating, and I've shared my story.

(01:20:51):
That's why I think storytelling is so important. People have
to speak up and share their stories around it. I
don't think you just kind of like relinkish everything and
let it go, but you try to be there for
them and keep encouraging them as much as possible and
putting resources in front of them and showing them how
other people have survived, because you know, the last thing
you want to do is kind of wash your hands

(01:21:12):
of it, and then you know a week or two
later or something happened.

Speaker 2 (01:21:15):
But then, yes, you're right, But then we also got
to protect our people.

Speaker 15 (01:21:20):
So you do it to the extent to your point
that you are kind of protecting your peace because again,
you know, people have choices, right, God gave man and
woman choice, So you can only do so much. But
and then you know faith comes into play. You know,
I'm a woman of faith, and so I'll continue to
pray for that person. So yeah, do what you can
as much as possible, put the resources in front of them,

(01:21:41):
and you know, let's hope and pray for the best.
But a lot of times when people are in crisis,
they don't know how to get the help right, or
they need somebody to say, hey, I'll go to the
doctor with you, or I'll help y'all walk with you
through this process.

Speaker 17 (01:21:54):
And you can only do what you can do.

Speaker 2 (01:21:56):
And you were right.

Speaker 1 (01:21:56):
So Trump administration did discontinue one billion dollars school mental
health grants, and the grants supported hiring school psychologists and counselors,
and it was funded by bipartisan legislation that was passed
after the twenty twenty two massacre at Vall.

Speaker 15 (01:22:10):
Date, you could see a lot of schools sometimes they
might have one counselor for like ten schools, and it's
like the number of kids that are in crisis, like
that's just not enough help and support. And sometimes they're
not licensed professional counselors. They just may be social workers,
which social workers are great, but oftentimes if these kids
need to learn how to get through the crisis that
they're in, they need someone that's license right and more

(01:22:32):
of a professional counselor. So, you know, y'all got to
call your legislators, you know, talk to your senators, talk
to your congressmen and women, and you know, we got
to push back on this because we need that funding, right,
they need to keep pouring into our kids.

Speaker 5 (01:22:46):
As you see the suicide rates going up and depression
going up, or do you see it stabilizer?

Speaker 2 (01:22:50):
Do you see it coming down?

Speaker 5 (01:22:51):
With all the mental health talk and all the you know,
platforms and places where people have to go.

Speaker 2 (01:22:56):
Now, what do you see?

Speaker 15 (01:22:57):
So for what I think the last study that I
saw was from twenty twenty one or either twenty twenty two,
and suicide rates, particularly for black youth, who are up
thirty percent. You know a lot of those studies, they
don't happen every single year, right, those large pool of
research studies, But there has been an uptick rather even
just two weeks ago, there was a young man in
Atlanta who happened to have gone to Palm two years ago,

(01:23:20):
and then some of my other friend's cousins knew him.
He took his own life. You know, so I still
see I'm still getting texts and comments about these young
people like taking their own lives, and so it's still prevalent.

Speaker 2 (01:23:30):
They're limited on social media?

Speaker 5 (01:23:31):
Is that what they're saying it is, or they're saying
lack of resources in the school, or like what are
they saying? The reason is I'm always curious because I
just feel like, you know, when we were growing up,
we we were just as bad, but we just didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
Have that social media element where people were constantly going
at us.

Speaker 1 (01:23:44):
I don't think we had the language or do I
think we had the same spaces to even express those issues.
Like my dad was dealing with all types of mental
health issues that he never talked to me about until
I was like forty years old, but we.

Speaker 17 (01:23:56):
Didn't know how to name it or what to call it.

Speaker 2 (01:23:58):
Is right, but even with all that, it's getting worse.

Speaker 5 (01:24:00):
It feels like it should be getting better now that
your dad could talk and that I can't talk and
be open and just could talk. But I feel like
it should be getting better, but it doesn't seem like
it is.

Speaker 15 (01:24:08):
Well, you know, I don't know if I can pinpoint
it on one particular thing, envy, but I do think
it is still a lack of resources in some areas
because it's still in underserved communities. People know about it,
but they aren't taking that next step. That's why I'm proud,
I have an announcement. So we created this PSA campaign
and it was around black men's mental health and it
was called Healing the Spaces between Us and so it

(01:24:29):
was a grandfather, a father, and a son and we
just got nominated for Southeast Emmy.

Speaker 11 (01:24:34):
Y'all.

Speaker 15 (01:24:34):
Oh, so shout out to making Sure Jopringo, who is
our creative director in Oak Films, who put it together.
But you know, we're really trying to push that narrative,
especially to you know, young black men and their grandparents
and their fathers. Y'all get together and talk about it.

Speaker 17 (01:24:50):
Nothing to be ashamed about, but you got to put
your cars out on the table and talk about it.

Speaker 2 (01:24:55):
Last week with Black Children's Mental Health there right, yep.

Speaker 15 (01:24:58):
Yes, So two years ago go Senator Anderson in the
state of Georgia road a resolution designating May first as
Black Children's Mental Health Day and Georgia on behalf of.

Speaker 17 (01:25:08):
Silence of Shame. We'd love to do that in New York.
So maybe we could partner with the Mental Wealth Alliance.

Speaker 15 (01:25:12):
So it's doing to designate May first in New York
State because again we're trying to just bring awareness to
the problems that's going on, so we can try to
you know, cut off those the numbers right that keep
increasing for suicides.

Speaker 2 (01:25:24):
Absolutely, and you know.

Speaker 1 (01:25:25):
This is Mental Health Awareness Month, and there's always a
lot of focus on raising awareness, right, but how do
we move past just awareness and start like action steps
for actual healing.

Speaker 15 (01:25:35):
Again, I think you know, you got to meet people
where they're at again. You talked about the uncertain times.
Like part of our we have a mental health tool
kit on silence, to shame dot com, a number of
things that you can do to honor the month and
to push resources out to the community. So one of
the areas we're focusing on is fire and rescue because
you know, we're seeing all these natural disasters and things
happening in the world. So we're pushing out resources that

(01:25:56):
are targeted, you know, to the firefighters and to people
that are.

Speaker 17 (01:26:00):
Out there on the front lines. Also, we did a
toolkit for the federal workers. Right, a lot of people
that have been let go.

Speaker 15 (01:26:08):
I think maybe half of the people that got let
go were due to the cuts within this administration. And
so we want to talk directly to those that are
suffering from a federal employee perspective, letting them know to
establish a routine, even though you got to let go,
get your daily routine going, even if it's like looking
for that next job, Like establish a routine so you
can protect your peace and practice mindfulness and reach out

(01:26:29):
if you need support. So we're trying to target specific
subgroups and people within the community, and so you just
got to you gotta be forceful in a way about it,
so that we are unapologetic about healing and getting help
that we need, but looking at specific groups of people
because we can all say we're all in this together.

Speaker 17 (01:26:48):
Mental health is important. We know we got to take
care of it.

Speaker 15 (01:26:50):
But when you talk directly at a specific group of people,
I think that's when you start moving the needle and
getting people to listen.

Speaker 5 (01:26:56):
Absolutely well, how can people if they want to tap
in and they a head or more information or they
want to help, how can they get involved?

Speaker 17 (01:27:03):
First of all, visit our website silencesshame dot com.

Speaker 4 (01:27:06):

So please support us, y'all talk about it.

Speaker 15 (01:27:45):
Don't just you know, if you're a young person and

just like throw some foul stuff on social media about
that person. You know, be the bigger person, you know,
be I'm apologetic about healing and letting go the things
that don't serve you anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:28:05):

Thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:28:36):
It's the breakfast Club. Good morning, the breakfast Club. Morning
everybody at DJ Envy just hilarious.

Speaker 5 (01:28:45):
Charlamagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. Now, let's
get to the latest with Lauren.

Speaker 4 (01:28:49):
Warm becoming a straight fast.

Speaker 2 (01:28:52):
She gets him from somebody that knows somebody detail.

Speaker 12 (01:28:56):
I'm a homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.

Speaker 2 (01:28:59):
She'd be having the latest, the latest with Lauren La Rosa.

Speaker 1 (01:29:04):
Sometimes you have sack, sometimes you have details, sometimes you
have a little bit of everything.

Speaker 2 (01:29:07):
It's the leader on the breakfast clubs.

Speaker 12 (01:29:11):
All right, y'all.

Speaker 4 (01:29:11):
So Beyonce, y'all know how we have been talking about
the Cowboy Carter tour. Well, she was just recently hit
with a cease and desist lawsuit because according to the
cease and desist.

Speaker 12 (01:29:22):
I'm sorry, she was just hit with a cease and
desist because according.

Speaker 4 (01:29:25):
To the letter, she used a image of the Sphere
in Vegas and she wasn't supposed to according to the owners.
So there is a man named James Dolan, he's the
CEO of Sphere Entertainment, and he basically is saying that
Beyonce at one point, because do you remember or anybody

(01:29:46):
remember when Beyonce was supposed to have that of Las
Vegas residency. It's been rumored for a while, and she
was like in conversation and then they said that the
conversations dropped, like they just didn't go anywhere.

Speaker 12 (01:29:56):
Yeah, so it was supposed to happen. People were saying
that it was rumored.

Speaker 4 (01:29:58):
Then it was rumors that she was in common with
the Sphere in Vegas to do it there, but it
didn't come. It didn't work out. So basically, she has
this interlude video that she plays in the opening of
one of her songs on the tour, and in that
video you see her walking.

Speaker 12 (01:30:13):
She's in Vegas. She goes all these different places, but
she's in Vegas.

Speaker 4 (01:30:16):
In one of the scenes, she's walking past the Sphere,
So fans, you know, they always trying to put two
the two together, started tweeting as if this meant that
she was letting people know that the residency was finalized
and would be happening in Vegas, so the Sphere, you know.
Their team they're like, you can't use that, like you
cannot allow your fans to think that something's gonna go
down here that is not going to go down. They

(01:30:36):
also pointed to the fact that there were other properties
in this video that she allegedly got permission to use,
but she had never gotten permission to just use that.
It was such a quick shot too, like the visual
of the sphere. So since then, it's been reported, based
off of videos from people from the tour, that she's
changed that opening interlude and that that visual of the
sphere is not in there anymore. But so was it

(01:30:59):
creating like trouble or problems like why was this such
like it was causing confusion to them? It was according
to a statement that you know, the team on the
opposing side released. Their issue was that it was causing
confusion amongst fans and amongst people who you know, spend
money at their business. So basically, the fans were leaving
a bunch of beehive emojis on in Twitter, and they
was kid and said, look, don't shold the spear. Maybe

(01:31:21):
that's what it was.

Speaker 12 (01:31:21):
I'm not for sure, but they wanted it down.

Speaker 4 (01:31:26):
Yeah, But a lot of people feel like this was
a petty shot from their behalf, from James Dolan and
their team because when all of the rumors, yes, isn't
he like had a Segard but that's Seg Yeah. So
but people are saying that this was a petty shot
from his side of things because when the Beyonce negotiations

(01:31:46):
that we don't really know the full gist off, so
you know, this all alleged when they allegedly fell through.
They're like, he's just upset that he couldn't get Beyonce
to do, you know, this residency at one of his venues.
So they're they're doing any little thing to take a
shot at her. That's how the fans build. But you know,
I think as a business I understand like they don't
want the confusion because anything with Beyonce, especially of Las
Vegas residency, fans are going to make news.

Speaker 1 (01:32:08):
The hardest thing to do is discuss business with people
who ain't got none. It's like, it's just that just
sounds like business to me. I don't I could have
been petty, maybe, but it just sounds like business.

Speaker 5 (01:32:19):
It did sound a little petty because it was a promo,
So I would figure that you would want the spare
in your promo when she's walking through Vegas, because it's
part of Vegas now, right when you pull up in Vegas.
That's the first thing you see when you're on the plane.
So I figured that wouldn't be a problem, but I
guess it was.

Speaker 4 (01:32:32):
Yeah, and she had She actually was given a deadline.
I believe the deadline was actually today to change things.
So you know, according to the newly posted videos, that
has changed. But over the weekend, like her tour was
the talk of the internet, and it was because of
like just little mishets that were happening.

Speaker 12 (01:32:47):
And I'm like with the tour going so viral for
all the good reasons. You see in Roomy you see
Blue Ivey come out.

Speaker 4 (01:32:53):
Lou has been what maybe Blue is low Beyonce, she
is the one. But there were a couple of things
that happened on age. So there was one point where
like Beyonce came out on stage and she couldn't find
her mark, like the ex wasn't on the floor, which
is really dangerous because she has this one scene in
her tour where like these two like really big frames
come down to like swing around her, so.

Speaker 2 (01:33:12):
She's not in the right just blow it up for
people that hasn't been there yet. And I did not
see that.

Speaker 4 (01:33:21):
That was the first time I've never seen her nervous
like that. She was literally looking around like hold stop singing.

Speaker 1 (01:33:26):
But we also live in the era where people always
look for the worst of the worst, they look for
the negative.

Speaker 2 (01:33:30):
Because the only thing I saw was roomy and blue
and everybody give I.

Speaker 4 (01:33:34):
Love them on the tour. But I think it was
because not that people were like talking about her or
her performance wasn't So we've never seen Beyonce like just
not like you could tell she was like what the
heck is going on?

Speaker 12 (01:33:45):
Like why is this happening?

Speaker 4 (01:33:46):
Like she was visibly like they forgot to put her
mark down yep, and she was looking at for it.

Speaker 2 (01:33:51):
We didn't see Beyonce here fall, We didn't see a fan.

Speaker 12 (01:33:58):
I feel like this these last like what what was
even though the couple of hiccups.

Speaker 4 (01:34:03):
There was a little hiccup on the Renaissan store, but
she was on top of I think it was that truck,
but that came and went. But like this happened, and
then there was an issue with her glove. They were
trying to put her glove on. Still she was annoyed
with that as well. But I don't know.

Speaker 12 (01:34:19):
I think it's it's all good press.

Speaker 4 (01:34:20):
Of course, you know. As of right now, her team
has not responded at all to the reports of the
season desists, as they normally don't do, so not surprised to.

Speaker 12 (01:34:29):
I don't know if I planned to. I'll be down
to go, though, okay, you going.

Speaker 4 (01:34:34):
I don't know.

Speaker 13 (01:34:35):
I might go.

Speaker 4 (01:34:37):
There's so many tours going on. I know I'm gonna
go see Chris Brown. What's his birthday? Happy birthday, Chris,
and also a birthday. And Craig David. Y'all remember Craig David.

Speaker 2 (01:34:46):
I do he inspired Drake. That was Drake's big homie.

Speaker 4 (01:34:50):
I don't know how we got here.

Speaker 2 (01:34:51):
That was Drake's big homie.

Speaker 4 (01:34:53):
I don't want to be like if we be making
love Wednesday and on Thursday and Friday and Saturdayay.

Speaker 12 (01:34:59):
The that inspired Drake.

Speaker 1 (01:35:03):
Because Craig David is from Toronto. Oh no, if I'm
not miss if I'm if I'm remembering it's correctly. Drake
said that one of Craig David's albums.

Speaker 2 (01:35:13):
Was inspired.

Speaker 4 (01:35:14):
I love that, you know what, Drake fact.

Speaker 12 (01:35:17):
And it's not a hater one either, It's not.

Speaker 2 (01:35:18):
I love so crazy, Allow the God. I'm sure.

Speaker 4 (01:35:22):
Step okay, and real quick before we close, because I
know he's such a friend to the show in front
of you guys. Fat Joe posted over the weekend that
his mom had passed away at age seventy seven, so,
you know, just sending him some love as they, you know,
get through that hard time. He posted a really nice
tribute to her on his Instagram, so go and check
that out, and just talked about how amazing she was.
They didn't have much, he says, but he made she

(01:35:43):
made sure that they had everything.

Speaker 2 (01:35:45):
So to Joey Crack. To Joey Crack.

Speaker 5 (01:35:47):
Yeah, and you know the sad thing about Crack is,
you know Joe Fat due lost his pops like a
month ago. We reported that he lost his brother, I
think like four months ago. So if you know Joe,
give me a call, give me a hug, send him
some love.

Speaker 2 (01:35:58):
Love you, Joe.

Speaker 1 (01:35:59):
If you're listening, listen. I just want everybody to know
that this building that we're currently in stinks. I don't
know what the hell is going on, Okay, but it really,
really really smells in here. It smells like a retainer
in the morning. You know, when you sleep with your retaining.

Speaker 2 (01:36:16):
Spells like they haven't taken the took the garbage out.
Exactly what it smells.

Speaker 1 (01:36:20):
It smelled like something backed up. That's what it really
does smell like.

Speaker 2 (01:36:23):
Really, Yes, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:36:25):
Maybe the edibles just cut everything off for me because
I'm like, I don't know, I'm smelling.

Oh, you are celebrating single to y'all has nothing to
