Back to the work week. Good morning. You know it's

(01:15):
crazy man when you watching the CNN early this morning
and the Lord third says us. Citi's braced for Chauvin
verdict as a closing testimony begins today. And the fact
that we live in a country that even though we
saw a murder took place for you know, however long
it was nine minutes to have the many seconds in fact,
we saw it. Everybody saw it. But everybody's still preparing

(01:37):
for the worst because we know how this country always
pulls the rug from under black people. Yeah, they're seeing kids,
uh don't necessarily have to go to school next week
in that area. Just in case, they're seeing a lot
of business this week Wednesday, they said, started Wednesday, they
seeing a lot of a lot of businesses are boarding
up and closing already. It's I mean, just the just

(01:58):
the fact that we all witnessed his blatant injustice. Every
American saw it. But just in case, we're bracing for
the worst in America because America already knows, America knows
how it gets down. That's right, That is right. Well,
I was out in a Phoenix over the weekend. I
guess Phoenix had a huge weekend. I've seen a little

(02:19):
dirt performed. Jez was out there, But that's not why
flights were so expensive. So flights to Phoenix this weekend
was a thousand dollars for regular flights, right regular regular coach, nothing,
no no doubt, the comfort, no first class, and that's
not even direct, that's you had to stop to get
to Phoenix. And I couldn't figure out why flights were
so expensive. But when I got there, I've seen that
they had a huge dance competition. So there was like

(02:42):
all these dance moms in the airport and all these dances.
So that's why. So Phoenix was was crazy this weekend.
So I was out in Phoenix shot that everybody in
Phoenix had a good time when I was out there,
had a really good time. So I actually spent more
time on an airplane than I actually did in Phoenix
trying to get to Phoenix, but it was still worth it.
Had a great, great time. But you guys doing the
weekend I was here in New York, I went to

(03:05):
a comedy club to go see Ida Rodriguest perform, and yeah,
very socially distanced in there by the way, and I
think that's how I went for a nice walk around
my neighborhood with UH with our friend Glow Mabn Latham Thomas.
I always make sure that if I feel like I
haven't been doing anything like going outside and getting a

(03:25):
little air, I'm very conscious about Okay, I gotta go
outside at least go for a walk and walk around
the neighborhood. So I did that walk to the Juice
Bar Juices for Life in Brooklyn. I had a nice
show weekend with Latham. We went for a walk. Latham
Thomas glow Mavin, who was a black I thought he said,

(03:47):
I thought, he said, dude, I'm just asking, Well, you
got something you want to tell her? What? Okay, all right,
I'm just asking lam Latham is my friend. I'm just asking,
just asking it. So Latham is an amazing Okay, Latham
is an amazing human. Because of her, my h my
wife was able to have a vaginal child birth on

(04:08):
on our third child because she had a c section
for our second one, and they told her she would
have to have a c section again and Latham said no,
no, no no, no, no no no. And because of her,
she had a vaginal broth. So I believe in duel
is one hundred percent. Okay, yeah, she's she's a great person.
I actually met Latham through Johnny Nunez, the photographer, you know,
Johnny Nunez. So okay, all right, well today Secretary Pete

(04:30):
Booty Judge will be joining us this morning. Secretary Pete,
first person from the Biden administration to check in since
the Biden administration has been in the White House. Um,
it says a lot about those new girls around Joe Biden.
But we we already know that. You know, when it
comes to you know, elections and everything, you only hear
from Democrats during election cycles. They don't they don't engage

(04:52):
their audience unless it's an election cycle, which I think
is a mistake. So salute the Secretary Pete for checking
in this morning. Carry your transportation. Let's get the show
crack in front page news. What we're talking about? Nothing
good this morning. There's a lot of updates on different
shootings that have happened. We'll tell you about the FedEx
shooting that happened in Indianapolis. They have idd that gunman.

(05:13):
All right, say nothing good ever, good news, all right,
and we got to send a rest in peace to
Black Raw. Black Raw passed away over the weekend. And
we should start the show off with well, you gotta
ready dramas, gotch Let's go It's a breakfast local morning,
rest in peace, black raw Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy
Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We all to breakfast club.

(05:35):
Let's get in some front page news. Where we starting
you police have the police have idd the gunman who
killed eight people at an Indianapolis FedEx facility is a
nineteen year old former employee and according to these reports,
the gunman is nineteen year old Brandon Hole. He was
last employed by FedEx in twenty twenty. He was found

(05:57):
out of a gunshot wound that appeared to be self inflicted.
He had an issue back in March of last year.
His mother told law enforcement he might attempt suicide by cop,
and that's when Holl was placed on an immediate mental
health temporary hold. He also said a gunshot at I
mean a shotgun was seized at his residence as well,
so they said based on the items they observed in

(06:18):
his bedroom at that time he was interviewed by the FBI.
They also said it in a statement that no racially
motivated violent extremism ideology was identified during the course of
the assessment and no criminal violation was found. The shotgun,
then at that time was not returned to the suspect,
and so they're trying to determine what the motive was,
and they're searching what they believe is his home. According

(06:39):
to reports late Friday morning, probably was his acne. He
had terrible, terrible acne. And I don't know if his
acne played a role in him flipping out, but that's
what a dermatologist is for. And furthermore, acne don't last always.
And furthermore, stop making permanent decisions based off temporary feelings. People,
Lord have mercy and ever by his stories like that,
I'm telling you, the first thing I think is, yo,

(07:00):
just do you okay? Never you feel like you want
to harm a bunch of people, and heard a bunch
of people. Start with yourself before you don't take yourself out,
before you take out a bunch of innocent people. Man
Jesus Christ, all right. Well. Another person was arrested after
a shooting at a bar in Wisconsin and Kenosha. Three
people were killed and three others were injured. The person's

(07:23):
name was not released, but he was arrested on suspicion
of first degree intentional homicide. The victims were not identified yet.
More than three people like we said, have been injured.
The person was taken into custody and did follow multiple lice.
That's when they reviewed surveillance video. They said that they
believed the suspect knew who he was targeting. They said
a person was asked to leave the bar and returns

(07:44):
and open fire. It was unclear whether the victims knew
the shooter. But the names, ages and everything has still
not been released. So none of the good guys got guns.
There's never nobody in these establishments to you know, come back.
These individuals who lose their mind. The sad thing is
a lot of times allowed to and I think about it.
Security throws somebody out, he goes back to the car,
and a lot of time securities don't. Security doesn't have weapons,

(08:05):
they're not allowed to have weapons inside the venue. Said
you said Connosha, right, m ain't at the same place
car written house was there. Clearly they're an open charac state, right,
so I would think somebody in that venue or could
combat you know, that type of behavior. But you know,
even though it's an open venue state or you know,

(08:26):
it doesn't mean open character, doesn't mean that venues in
a private venue. You can say this is not allowed
in this venue. Well, every venue needed to have it
at this point, ID rather get carything call without it.
And then three people were pronounced dead at the scene
of a shooting in Austin, Texas on Sunday. They said
it appeared to be a domestic situation that is isolated.

(08:49):
Please identify the suspect who is still at large as
Stephen Nichols Broject, who is forty one years old. They
don't know if he fled on foot or in a vehicle,
but they're concerned he could be hiding or he could
have taken a hostage. So they're saying this is a tragedy.
He actually is a former Travis County Sheriff's Office detective.
He was charged with the sexual assault of a child.
He resigned from the department last year after he was

(09:10):
arrested and charged, and he was arrested June twentieth last year,
released on buying that same month. Well, I believe in
my right to bear arms, okay, and then tell y'all
get the guns out of the hands of these people.
I'm always believing my right to bear off. All right,
there's a lot more right, all right. I think we've
reached our shooting quota for the morning. I think we

(09:31):
don't have to mention mention any other shootings this morning.
America has a problem that we know. All right, we'll
get it off your chests. Eight ndred five eight five
one oh five one. If you need to vent phone
lines a wide open, call us up right now. It
was the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Boke up,
wake up. If you're time to get it off your chest,

(09:55):
man or Blas, we want to hear from you on
the Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this little morn and envy
the morning charlottage La Monta, Angela shrag Angela. I mean,
what's happening? Who you call? Yeah, good morning, I'm talking.
I'm calling into us a rest in peace of black robs.
But I'm also calling them because I was watching a

(10:17):
bit of the Joe Buttons podcast right and they were
talking about whether or not didn't it responsible for you know,
these artists once they get you know, they leave the label,
or when artists get sick and something like that, or
they they financially not you know together and I and
I heard me talk about it before. Why don't tell
hip hop artists or the hip hop community formed some
kind of like you know, artists coalition or foundation for

(10:40):
hip hop artists or that when you know the careers
are not blocking me like they were before, there'll be
some kind of fund to help them take care of
their you know, finances or the retirement or something like that.
Because if sad watching Black Robust, a New York legend,
you know, passed away like that man, homeless and and
financially you know, in burden like that man, and it
was tact seeing fit like that. So I know, I

(11:03):
know a lot of artists don't have you know, unions,
or have healthcare or have their do or nothing like that.
Based on the fact that they're independent, you know, a
contractor is basically they should come together formed some kind
of coalition for artists man the older artists, or you know,
have some kind of a union for hip hoop artists
because in that your artists plats away like that. You

(11:24):
don't everybody say that, But I don't even know how
that works. I don't I don't know how unions work. People.
I think people are just saying that because that's a
word that's that's like a buzzword that's being thrown around
rather than to have a union, have a union. I
think what they should do is when you sign an artist,
it's just like when you signed on the NFL or NBA.
They usually have a general a class where you have

(11:46):
to take where it tells you about your finances, what
you should do with your money, so so people know,
because a lot of people never have money, you give
them one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand, three hundred thousand,
they don't know what to do with it. I know
you mentioned one time with doing the earlier part of
Endemic Power, you wanted to do something like that with
the DJ right you were bringing all the DJs together
to have them kind of hard to help them out.

(12:06):
It's it's not hard to do something together. But if
your mind and aska or something like that, you can
do it. Where did you just have pacteria to become
Just be honest, If an artist doesn't want to do it,
they don't have to do it. I've been doing these
seminars and I told every DJ out there that that
that a DJ that actually on radio that makes money
from DJ, only money from DJ, not you know, working

(12:29):
here in DJ on the side of DJs that do
this full time. Any one of my seminars that I
come into city, call me. I probably got three calls.
So they have to want to do it too, and
they don't want to have to do it when they
do when they at up. You're you're an employer, though,
you can't let that deter you thought, and I do
want to. I want to. I want to say one
more thing about union style, Rick, just to agree with

(12:50):
what you're saying. Is that think about it like, if
you're an actor, you have to join the union in
order to get paid or work on certain projects. Right,
So you can't make it mandatory if you If and
that is, you can form a union at the majority
of people want to do that, and that's just the
way to set up for the future and also make
sure that you'll always be taking care of when it
comes to healthcare, when it comes to when you retire.

(13:11):
So it is possible to do that. Well, question, I
wonder if these rappers are eligible for any of these things? Now?
Are they eligible for SAG after all? They yeah, if
they acting and I know, I know the entertainment and
you don't have to be a big name to be
a part of SAG. Right, You've given me in a film. Yeah,
but you have to have a speaking kind. I think

(13:32):
you remember I remember being a single san and you
understand you can't eat off on honey grand like you
get it. Deal. Yeah, don't get medical, you don't get no,
you don't get none of that. Being being a hip
hop party you they can do it, and I think
we have the party place to do it. You know,
jay Z six, all these people that are put together,
all these verses and all that stuff. Something I really

(13:54):
I really want to I really want to know if
some of these rappers are eligible for for for SAG
health insurancee yea. I really want to know. I don't
know because they do videos and stuff like that, so
I don't know. I don't know. I would love to
know if a wreck is Also it's also financial freedom.
You have to know what to do with your money,
like you can't. You can't be mad at the label
for giving you money. And the first thing you do
is you go buy a car, or the first thing

(14:15):
you do is you buy jewelry. You have to make
sure you know it's it's a plan. You have to
plan everything out. You just can't spend like it's not
going to stop. That's where we need courses on financial
literacy because we have to make sure we cover our
ass before we just go out and just buy a
random miss It is what it is. That's that's what
a lot of us do. Check. But I will say,
unexpected things happen, Like a main part of the reason

(14:37):
why people end up going broke, can also be medical
bills that are unexpected. It can also be bad investments.
You might invest in some things and then they don't
work out the way that you plan. There are a
lot of reasons that it can happen. Not necessarily always
just wasting your money. A lot of times it is
wasting our money. Get it off your chest eight five
eight five, one oh five one. If you need to vent,

(14:57):
hit this up now with the breakfast club. Good morning,

your chests, whether you're man or blast. So we better

Let's talk Black Rob. She's filling the team. This is
the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well,
rest in peace to Black or Rob. I think we

(18:49):
were all surprised when we saw the video or Black
Rob in the hospital where he was giving his condolences
to DMX's family. If y'all recall this is what it
sounded like on with this man for five years, four strokes.
It's crazy. It's hard, man. You know what I'm saying. Don't.
I don't got no house to live in except probably

(19:11):
man apartment. Man from me and my me and my
man be trying to get the government telling you, man,
it's strange. It's hard man. You know what I'm saying. Yeah,
I need some I need some rest. Man. You know,
we don't know what kind of pain that brother was in.
We don't know what he was going through. But I
tell you what that video you heard it for yourself.

(19:31):
Just not that brother said he was tied. He said
he needed some rest. So I pray to God that
you know, God is pleased with him and he gets
the rest he deserves. Absolutely well. Yeah, I've been hospitalized
for a kidney failure and his former labelmate Mark Curry
took to social media to announce a Black Rob had
gotten discharged from the hospital, but unfortunately, on Saturday, he
revealed that Black Rob had passed. I don't know where

(19:53):
to beginning this, but I think everybody for the donations.
Rob passed away about an hour ago. I need for
his daughter. I owned the ross little Robert Ross. Y'all
get in touch with me, please, Hm Luthamark Curry, what
is Black Rob's family saying? I feel like we're hearing

(20:14):
from everybody except for his actual family. Like, what is
his family saying? Well, I haven't seen anything from his
family yet. You know, we did see that puffeted posting messages.
Mario Winans. A lot of his former label mats also
posted their condolences messages in addition to that. You know,

(20:34):
Black Rob had been struggling with health issues for quite
some time. Back in twenty fifteen, he was on Sway
and he was discussing his high blood pressure strokes that
he had listened to this. You know, I had a stroke,
you know, but I got over that. It's just been
high blood pressure man, And you know, trying and trying
to stay on top of this thing, man, you know
what I'm saying. Man, And you know, being on top,

(20:55):
so you gotta take pills and stuff for your high
blood pressure? Ye daily? Yeah, take light ten pills man
a day, every day. Damn. The reason I asked what
Black Rob's family is is because I see all these
go fund means going around, you know, I see things
for you know they're trying to get the brother of
a house. They're trying to get funeral expenses, Like who

(21:15):
who's behind all of this? Where is that money going?
That's what I would like to know, right and we
did see that. I'm puffed it post a statement he said,
Rest in power, King Black Robbers. I listened to your
records today. There's one thing that they all have in common.
You have made millions of people all over the world
feel good and dance. You are one of a kind.
God blasted love. You would be truly missed. So sad man,

(21:38):
this is so sad. Yeah, I was surprised because we
just saw him recently, but we did see that he
was suffering so well, listen, the brother said he needed
some rest. That's that, you know, That's what That's what
I heard in the video. The brother said he needed
some rest. He said he was tied. So once again,
I hope God is pleased with him, and I prayed
the brother gets the rest he deserves. All right now,
Paris Hilton is saying that she's suffered from PTSD and

(22:01):
that was after that sex tape was released. That one
night in Paris sex tape, she said it was like
being electronically raped. That's what she said about that experience.
She was only twenty years old when she made that
sex tape, and she said that her boyfriend at the time,
Rick Solomon, had kind of pressured her into doing this
sex tape. He was thirteen years older than her, and

(22:23):
she said, that's something that will always hurt me for
the rest of my life. She said. They filmed that
sex tape in two thousand and one. There was a
three minute version of it that was leaked. In two
thousand and three, they both sued the company, and then
he went ahead and released a longer version of the
video and he plugged it on NBC. He said, it's
eighteen minutes of full color, and I think everybody will
enjoy it. He then struck a deal with the porn

(22:43):
studio read Thy District Video. He sold the forty five
minute version with the name One Night in Paris, and
she said it still gives a ps PTSC to discuss
that sex tape, which was filmed then when she was
only twenty years old, always hurt her. I thought both
parties got a sign off when they sell papes. Yeah,
I thought, yeah, I'm not sure how that worked, but

(23:04):
She said, it was a private experience between two people.
You love someone, you trust someone, and to have your
trust betrayed like that, and for the whole world to
be watching and laughing. It was even more hurtful to
me to have these people think that I did this
on purpose that killed me. It still gives me PTSD
to talk about it. HAD always looked up to amazing
women like Princess Diana, and I just felt like when
he did that to me, he took that all away

(23:24):
from me, and people would never look at me the same.
She said. All these people were making fun of her
and all these talk shows, and she didn't even want
to leave her bed. Yeah, I'm with you. I thought
you had to sign off on that. I didn't think
anybody could just post it on their sites or their
blog sites or sell it. I thought you had to
sign off. I thought both parties had to sign off now.
Paris Hilton's little sister said that they lived in a

(23:46):
hotel where the New York Daily News and the New
York Post was on everyone's front door down the hall. So,
she said, on days when it was a cover story,
I would run down the hall first and flip every
newspaper over so they didn't have to see it. She
lived in a hotel. Her granddaddy own a bunch of hotels. Old,
that's probably why she lived there. She lived free, Okay

(24:09):
to all this context to be out there, because it
sounds like what she lived in a hotel. Yeah, because
your grand daddy owned. Yeah, show was a presidential sweet
It wasn't a regular room, right, And she said if
that would have happened today, it wouldn't be what it
was back then. She's um again, happy that things have
changed and that people are realizing that the woman in
the situation is the victim should not be treated like

(24:29):
that or spoken about like that. All right, well that
is your rumor reports. All right, thank you, missy. Now
when we come back, we got front page news. What
we're talking about, yes today is the closing arguments they

So you played too much. Let's get some front page news,
you kin. Can you miss me this weekend where we're
starting eating well, closing arguments are starting today in a
Derek shoving Charlote Minneapolis. But there's also preparations for protests

(25:58):
being made, so please have been bracing across the country
in case they see a lot of things happening. There
were tensions in the Minneapolis metropolitan area as people are
waiting to find out what's going to happen with Derek Chauvin.
You know, there was a peaceful march and protest calling
for justice, and at least one hundred people were arrested
on Friday night according to authorities, And so you could

(26:18):
see just all kinds of things happening. Now, closing arguments
in Derek Chauvin's child Wild contrast the prosecution's concise case
with a more complex defense. So prosecutors are trying to say, basically,
what you saw is what it is. You know, Derek
Chauvin uses me to suffocate a non resisting black man,
and that's what it is. That's what they've been arguing.

(26:40):
You can believe your eyes that it's a homicide, according
to prosecuting attorney Derry Blackwell and opening statements. But the
defenses goal throughout the trial has been to make that
more complicated. What they are saying, what looked like excessive
force was actually an appropriate restraint. What looked like a
suffocation was actually Floyd to drag overdose and underlying heart
issue and what looked like in office his heartlessness was

(27:02):
actually concerned about a hostile mob of agitators. According to
the defense, listen, America knows America. Don't ever let these
politicians fool you when they say this is not America.
This is absolutely America, and they know it. That's why
they're bracing themselves for the worst, because they already know.
I'm looking at CNN right now, the Lord third says.
Biden said he is keeping a watchful eye on trial

(27:23):
Peer's verdict. Mate inflame tensions. You think you think that
if Derek Shavin gets off, it's going to inflame tensions.
That's gonna be an understatement. And you know what's gonna happen.
They're gonna treat the people who are reacting to the
injustice worse then they treat the person who actually committed
the injustice. That's what's gonna happen, hopefully not now. Just
to recab, Derek Chauvin has pleaded not guilty the second

(27:47):
degree unintentional murder, third degree murder, and second degree manslow
to charges. If he is convicted, he could face up
to forty years in prison for second degree murder, up
to twenty five years for the third degree, and up
to ten years for degree manslaughter. The charges are considered separate,
so he could be convicted of all, some or none
of them. Well, whatever happens is meant to happen. You know.

(28:08):
I know that sounds cliche, but definitely sounds cliche. It is.
But whatever happens is meant to happen. So you know,
America can show black people once again what they think
about us all they can for the first time in
a long time do the right thing. You know. It
definitely's not a matter of chance. It's a matter of choice.
So you know, pick your choice this week, America. All right.
It's so crazy because when the child first started, I

(28:30):
was like get him, like with the prosecution, and it
felt like it was a shutting close kit, Like Okay,
this is gonna happen. But now we're a little nervous,
all right now. A seven year old girl died and
her father was wounded after they were after they were
shout at at McDonald's drive through in Chicago yesterday. The
child was identified by police as Jasline and her twenty
eight year old dad, John Tay Adams. They were in

(28:52):
a car outside of the McDonald's when two gunmen open
fire on them. Jazzlin was struck several times in the shooting.
At a heard it about four to twenty pm. Her
father was hitting the torso and he's hospitalized in stable condition. So, yes,
I told you, it's not really any good news. I
have nothing good new babies. Boys, it's nobody hits a

(29:12):
lot like we deliver good news. That nobody delivers good news.
What the age old model in the news is, if
it bleeds, it leads. Okay, when is there ever good news? Goodness? Gracious?
All right? All right, reset, reset, Reset, Now when we
come back, Secretary Pete Booty Judge will be joining us. Yeah,

(29:35):
Secretary Pete, listen, always remember Democrats and only your friend
when it's when it's an election cycle. Okay. He only
engaged the audience when it's an election when it's election time,
which I think is a mistake. So it's good to
see Secretary Pete Booty Judge checking in this morning. All Right,
we'll kick it with him when we come back, so
don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast
Club morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.

(29:59):
We are to breakfast club. We have a special guest
on the line, Secretary Pete Buddhaja. Welcome, good morning, good morning,
could be with you, hey man, we knew you when
you were just a little mayor down then south ben Man.
Now look at you, look at you. Congratulations on the
new position. Thank you. So what is the position? What
are you doing? What is the position? Break it down?

(30:19):
So it's everything related to how people get around, right,
we're talking about transit. We've got a Federal Transit Authority
supports subways and buses, the Federal Aviation Administration for air travel,
sports and airports, planes, trains, and automobiles, all of that.
Even pipeline safety is part of the department, and it's
always an exciting place to be, at least if you

(30:39):
care about these things. But this moment right now, this
moment that we're in, I think is the most important
moment in terms of what we can do for transportation
in the country because of the President's jobs Plan, which
hopefully we'll get to talk about. So there's never been
a more exciting moment to work these issues and you know,
I think about it as a mayor, right, because as
a mayor, you're up, you're thinking about the potholes, You're

(31:02):
worried about how to make sure people can get around
the community. But now we get to work those issues
for the whole country. I saw a lot of conversation
based around what you said about racism and how it's
sometimes been a part of highway planning and construction. So
can you break that down for us? Yeah, I was
a little surprised that some people were so surprised, because
I think to a lot of others it's been pretty obvious.

(31:24):
But it starts by understanding the history. Right. So if
you look at the way that a lot of highways,
for example, have been built in this country, a lot
of that was at the expense of black and brown neighborhoods,
and sometimes it was just out of convenience. So it's
expensive to buy up a bunch of property to run
a highway through it. Black neighborhoods are often undervalued, and

(31:45):
so it was the path of least resistance. Sometimes it
was about power, right, the neighborhoods that had the least
power to speak up in a community process and say wait,
a minute, Let's have that road go there instead of here.
Sometimes that was part of the explanation, but it's very
important to understand sometimes this was very intentional. There is
evidence from history and places from Atlanta to New York

(32:09):
City that sometimes the way that a road was built,
the way that a highway was set up, the way
that one part of town was divided from another was
viewed as part of the mechanics, the mechanism of segregation,
that you could keep two parts of town separated through
something like a highway. So when I talk about racial

(32:30):
equity and transportation, it's not just about making sure that
everybody has access to good transportation, but also literally when
the money was spent, where was it spent, and how
is it spent and what effect did it have? And
often you'd have sometimes a thriving neighborhood that got cut
into or just rolled over entirely through the use of

(32:51):
federal transportation to odds. And I don't say that in
order to make people feel guilty. I'm seeing it because
we can do it differently. This time, the presidents proposed
the biggest jobs investments since or two. We're talking about
hundreds of billions of dollars, so that this time, let's
get it right, including money to reconnect some of those
same places that we're divided in the past. Now, I
did hear at you know, back in the day, especially
like in areas like Long Island and where the beaches are,

(33:13):
they would make these overpasses that were too low for
buses because back in the day, of course minorities, black
people couldn't afford cars, so they would have to take
the bus. So that way the bus couldn't get to
those beaches, so more of the rich white people would
be able to get to the beaches and not allow
us to get to some of those areas. Is that
what you're talking about as well? Yeah, that's a great example.
The Robert Carrow's history book that The Power Broker about

(33:35):
a biography of Robert Moses, who engineered a lot of
these things, describes this and it's exactly as you're saying,
overpasses a little lower than they usually would have been,
so the buses couldn't get through, and the buses would
have been how a lot of black and Puerto Rican
residents would have been able to access those beaches. So
that's another example of how this is not This is
not just incidental. This is not just out of them

(33:56):
and black. There were some real choices made here, but
now we can make choices better choices, and that's part
of what's exciting about the Jobs Plan. But what is
the jobs Plan exactly? I'm hearing it's the transformative plane
that's going to impact generations. So so what is it exactly? Yeah,
so it's it's roads and bridges. First of all, just
fixing twenty thousand miles of roads, ten thousand bridges around

(34:18):
the country. It's improving our ports and airports. It's improving transit.
Effect We're going to double the resources for transit. And
this is important also from a racial justice perspective, because
you know, black and brown Americans are more likely to
rely on transit to get to where they need to go.
This is about making sure we invest in workforce because
the other equity questions that's really big here is who's

(34:39):
going to get to do the work. Right, if we're
going to be building bridges, fixing roads, and improving ports
and airports and enhancing subways, you know who actually gets
to do the work, what kind of businesses get in
on it, and what kind of workers get in on that.
So what can we do to make sure that there
are apprenticeship programs to make more pathways available to get
these building trades jobs. All of this is contemplated in

(35:01):
the plan. It's two point two five trillion dollars, and
there's a bit of a fight going on over whether
you can call it infrastructure. Right, So there's things like
roads and bridges that everybody who reads infrastructure, but there's
also investments in internet access. We think that's infrastructure. After those,
you need to be able to get on the internet
your homework to get a job the same way. You know,

(35:21):
I know fifty years ago people weren't thinking about the internet,
but but they were putting in the interstate highway system.
Right now, you need both. So we've got things like that.
We've got measures to deal with water. You know, water
is definitely infrastructure, at least from a mayor's prison, and
so the President's plan would get rid of all lead
service pipes everywhere in the country. It's a huge undertaking,
but you've got to do it otherwise you still have

(35:42):
families worried about whether they can get clean, safe drinking
water that isn't going to poison their children. Pete. This
is when it is when the age gap is clear
between you and some of your peers, right that being
that you're you're trying to convince them that the Internet
is infrastructure. Of course it is in two twenty one,
I think so, I mean, I think all of this
is generational too, right. The truth is we're living off

(36:05):
of infrastructure that was built generations ago, and we've kind
of been coasting for a long time, taking out investments
for thirty or forty years, which is why they put
out report cards from the American Society of Civil Engineers.
For example, they're giving us c's and d's on the
infrastructure in this country, and other countries are leaving ahead
of us. You can see we're falling behind. That's a

(36:25):
generational issue because a new generation can't thrive in an
economy that doesn't have good infrastructure. Same with internet, same
with climate. So the other really important thing we have
to do here is make investments that are going to
help head off climate change. Transportation is the single biggest
source of greenhouse gases in our entire economy. So if

(36:46):
we can get more people in electric vehicles and make
them affordable, if we can create more transit options so
you don't need a vehicle at all in order to
get to where you're going. If we can improve the
energy grid after things like what we saw in Texas, right,
that's infrastructure. I think all of those things add up
to a better climate future too. And it's it's absolutely
a question of generational opportunity. We have more with secretary

(37:07):
people to judge when we come back, So don't move.
It's to breakfast club come morning morning. Everybody is DJ
Envy Angela Yee. Chalomagne the guy we all the breakfast club.
We're still kicking it with Secretary Pete Chalomagne. How can
we ensure that the American Jobs Plan directly helps black people?
Because we see a lot of times these plans, you know,

(37:29):
they don't trickle down the black people the way that shit.
How can we make sure it directly impacts black people? Yeah,
I think this is really important and it's not going
to be automatic that it goes well. I mean, this
is why we need to make sure we have things
like apprenticeship programs. We need to work work with organized
labor to make sure there are more pathways into these jobs.

(37:49):
These are good jobs with middle class incomes. By the way,
most of the jobs we're talking about creating here will
not require college degree, and so this is a great
way for people to get a start in life or
to raise a family, whether they're going after you know,
there's definitely some engineering jobs that we created the require
degrees PhDs, but a lot of this we're talking about.

(38:11):
These are not mysterious jobs. And we're talking about construction,
we're talking about insulators, we're talking about electrical workers, and
we know that there could and should and need to
be more black representation in those skilled trades. So part
of it's that, part of it's the kinds of business
ownership that gets in on this. Right, we need to
build and there's there's an example of doing this through

(38:32):
infrastructure actually in Atlanta, so a generation ago. Part of
how Maynard Jackson helped build a black middle class in
that city was by making sure when they had a
major infrastructure project for the airport that a business community
with a lot of diverse ownership got in on that.
My department alone procures six or seven or eight billion

(38:56):
dollars in a year directly in addition to all the
money flows through here. So the business opportunity here is enormous,
but we've got to make sure that we're supporting those
businesses as they grow. So we're doing what we think.
I was just gonna say, we're doing what we can
already within the law. So for example, we just put
out a billion dollar grant program where we as a

(39:19):
department set criteria telling the communities what we're looking for,
and they come to us with projects and then we
fund them. And in that program, for the first time
in this way, we're explicitly saying we want racial equity,
equity to be one of the things that you are
considering and explaining when you bring that program the grants
in that program to us. Same thing with another program

(39:40):
called Build, which is about eight hundred and eighty seven
million dollars. We put it out soon after I took
this office, and now we're going through the applications. So
there's a lot we can do that's consistent with the
law now. But if we pass this new law that
the president's proposing, it's just a it's a different level
of investment and the benefits are huge. Yeah, I'm just
going to say, when it comes to a instruction, you

(40:00):
gotta high that mcketsic and mckettic. There a black owned
construction company owned by a black woman, so make sure
she gets one of those contracts as well. And I
want to switch gives a little bit too. You know
you're you're you're a veteran, right, Yeah, So when you
see what happened to Lieutenant Karen uh Nazriel, I think
I'm pronouncing his name right in Virginia the hands of

(40:21):
the police. How did that make you feel? I don't
know that I have words for how it makes me feel.
I mean, everybody says that they stand with those who
wear the uniform, right, we say support our troops, and
then you see one of our troops in uniform being
treated that and it is so opposite of the basic

(40:43):
idea that we stand up for those who for us.
And in another era, when I'm sure that was happening,
just as much, we wouldn't know about it, right because
there wouldn't be footage other now we do. And it's
one more at that confronts America as we have this

(41:04):
national conversation about whether this is going to continue. This
administration really care about holding police accountable. Absolutely. I mean,
that's why this administration, for example, is pushing for the
George Floyd Policing Act to be passed. The House passed it,
we need to get that through the Senate. I mean,
this country is not whole until something changes. And I

(41:26):
think I know that's important to the President. It's important.
I think that everybody in this administration and the country
will be hurting until we can fix this. But when
is this staff? It seems like it's the same scenario
over and over and over and over again. It just
seems like there's no accountability and nothing ever changes. Well,
there has to be accountability, and again that's part of
what needs to change in terms of reforms. Look, we

(41:48):
get that a lot of the decisions are local, but
there's also a national climate and national culture, and there
are national laws like the George Floyd Act that would
make a difference here. I mean, we're up against the
entire history of this country, right, it's for the foundling,
up against four hundred years. But I really believe that
it has to change in our lifetime or the country

(42:08):
doesn't make it. And man, Pete, I know you got
a heart out, so I want to respect that. So
I just want to say, Man, I want to salute
you because one thing I think Democrats suck at is
engaging with their audience outside of election cycles, like we
only see them when they want us to vote, which
I think is a huge mistake. And it says a
lot that with all the black people around Joe Biden,
who came here during election cycles, that the first person

(42:29):
we've heard from since the administration has been in the
White House, is you so thank you for valuing you know,
our audience. Absolutely. Well, I'm honored to be with you.
I'll come by any time. I got one question, you know,
gun control. You know, it seems like there's a mass
shooting every other week, but we talk about it all
the time. A lot of the times people that purchase

(42:49):
these guns purchase illegally, but they have problems, they have mentally,
they have mental health problems. How are we looking on
making sure these codes, these gun control laws are a
lot more serious and a lot more protecting of the
regular people. Yeah, I mean, we're waking up to news
again today. It's in my home state, Indianapolis. We'll see
where it is tomorrow. And there's the mass shootings and
then there's the everyday shootings. And we're the only country

(43:11):
that seems to tolerate this as routine. So you know,
Congress needs to act. We need to act on background checks,
We need to act on a lot of things. But
what the President did was used as executive authority to
at least do what we could to do things about,
for example, these kits that you can assemble into guns.
And another thing that's in there to your question is

(43:32):
a model red flag law. So the idea of a
red flag law is that if a family is concerned
about someone who has these mental health issues, they can
go through a process to make sure that they don't
have access to a weapon. We should be very clear
that in places where guns are more widely available to
people with mental health struggles, there are more gun suicides.

(43:54):
Not all suicide attempts are alike, and we're more likely
to lose somebody to suicide if they have access to
a gun. So we should at least be able to
agree on this much. I haven't been in Washington for long,
but I'm learning one thing about this place is sometimes
things that people agree on around the country in both parties,
whether it's infrastructure or whether it's background checks on guns.

(44:14):
It doesn't quite work that way in Congress, but I
think that keeping an insistence on progress, it's got to
have some kind of If you go in front of
the flag the capital right now, the lawn is planted
with flags, each one of which represents people who have
been lost to gun violence. And it's another one of
those things that if we can't change it on the

(44:36):
watch of the generations now in charge, then we never will.
So it's now or never, and we just can't ever
get used to it, even though I think we've gotten
used to that. Secretary Pete, you came up here and
you told us your story, and you talked about how
difficult it was for you to come out when you
were starting. Have you watched the Bachelor of seen the

(44:57):
Bachelor of Colton Underwood and how difficult it was for
him to come out? Did you see that yet? I
know I'm just kidding telling me about it on Twitter,
but I haven't caught up on it yet, Okay, just curious.
That's all all right? Well, thank you so much for
joining us, Secretary Pete. We appreciate it. Unless you got time,
how much more time you got? I really do have
to go now. It's making sure all right, because you know,
we still got to talk about Whitey's why are they
trying to suppress the black vote? But we talk about

(45:17):
that another time. There's a lot to talk about there.
But yeah, catch you again in the future, my man.
Thank you, thank you, Secretary, thank you. It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning, DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne and Guy. We
are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Yes, thank you the secretary,
Pete Bouda judge for pulling up on us this morning.
And I also want to say, you know, yesterday, April eighteenth,

(45:38):
was the four year anniversary of my first book, Black Privilege,
Opportunity created New York Times bestseller. Thank you for everyone
who made this book a tremendous success. And four years
later that book, Black Privilege, is now a book imprint
publishing company, Black Privilege Publishing, and we have our first release,
Timmy Ka Mallory State of Emergency, How to Win Country

(46:00):
we built, coming out in May eleventh. It's available for
pre order everywhere you buy books now. So I guess
the moral of the story is life. Life is all
about progression. That's right. Putting out my own book is great.
Putting out my own books because I put out another
book called Ship One too, but being able to assist
in publishing other people's books, it's better absolutely, so go
pre order to make a Mallory's State of Emergency How

(46:20):
to Win in the Country we Built available May eleventh.
I just got off the phone with Black Rob's manager.
What's his name? Let me say Tay the brother's name.
I met him a couple of times. His name is
Jamal Mosley. J Jamal Mosley. Okay, what are you talking about? Um? Now?
He just heard us talking and he was just talking
about what's going down and what happened. And I forgot that.

(46:43):
I guess me and Black Rob that got into it
a long time ago, and he was like, you know,
I want to everything. I know. I don't even remember
me getting getting getting into it with people. You be
getting touched up on it. But he was like, yeah,
you know, we've seen each other in the elevating. It
was so much tension and they wanted to squash. But
I don't even remember. It was I had to be
something stupid, some mixtape stuff. But he was just telling
me that a lot of the things that we're hearing

(47:04):
in the press is absolutely false. And uh, he said
that he wants to you know, speak of what's really
going on. But he just said he wants to talk
to the family first, make sure the family is aware
that he is going to speak. And that's what I'm
talking about. That's why did he said now and he
said that, Um, he said. One thing that he will
say is he says, you know people said were as
puffs Puff. He says, Puff has always been there. He

(47:24):
says Puff has always helped Puff. Puff has always saying
care packages. He says, Puffy even flew a robed to
Miami to try to help and just try to keep
me on with some positive energy. Now, what is a
puffcare package now? Because if if if I need a
brad to make sure he was a puffcare packages be
daily on androc. Now, it wasn't a liquor like that.
He was making sure that the buffer was good. And

(47:45):
he said Puffs care because there's this narrative out there
that Puff hasn't done anything and he hasn't helped him.
But that's good to hear. Now, he said that's not true.
He said Puff did take care of him. Not recently,
he said for years. He said Puff to take care
of him. And he said that, uh, you know, most
of the go fund means that you see out there.
He is shutting down and shut down, he said, because
you know, they didn't speak to anybody. They didn't speak

(48:07):
to the family, they didn't speak to the estate and
anybody did. I not ask that question this morning. All
I wanted to know this morning what is the family thing?
Because I'm not hearing anything from the family, but I'm
seeing all of these people post go fund means and
asking for money to buy Robert house and pay for
his funeral the princes, and I'm like, well, who are
they clearing this through? He said, He said a lot more,
but he did. He definitely said, you know, he'll speak
to the family first, and if the family says it's okay,

(48:29):
he will, you know, jump on it. And and that's
say what's going on. That's just the right thing. That's
the right thing to do. And every single person who
has posted the gofund me about black Rob, I know,
you're a heart may be in the right place, but
you gotta go and ask the family first. Yeah. Absolutely,
And you know, so he just wanted to get me
up the here just talking this morning. They just wanted
to update some of the things. But he said, you know,
he will, definitely, I'll reach out next week. I was

(48:50):
on the phone until we just got on. It is, man,
there's so much going on, but definitely condolences to Rob's
family and friends and and you know, just just continue
to pray for the family and everything like that. Um right, geezh,
All right, now we got rumors on the way. What
we're talking about. Yes, we'll be talking about DMX and
the public memorial service they'll be having to honor him.

(49:12):
All right, we'll get into that next. It's the breakfast
club Good Mornings. Its Ray is on the cover for
Rolling Stone and she's talking about the inspiration behind her
rap ish comedy series, as you know, and I'm excited

(49:35):
to see this. You know, this is actually going to
start filming this summer. It'll be eight episode from HBO
Max and it's also executive produced by Coach K and
P from Quality Control as well as The City Girls.
It's up. It's about two childhood friends trying to get
in the rap game. It's loosely based on their lives.
The City Girls and this is what inspired Easta Ray.

(49:58):
It's Jermaine Duprie talking about women in hip hop. Do
you have a favorite right now in the Raping Megantallion. Wow,
I can't really say. No reason why. I can't say
it because I feel like they're all rapping about the
same thing, and I don't feel like that. I don't
think they're showing us who's the best rapper. It's like

(50:18):
strippers rapping and I don't. I don't. As far as
rap goals, I don't. I'm not getting who is the
best rapper. I don't know bro JTB snapping bro dropping
the clues bombs with JT from the City Girl, JTB snapping,
meg Be snapping too, but JTB snapping snapping. Yeah, I
mean there was a lot of controversy when Jamaine Duprimate

(50:39):
those comments and Easter Ray said, I was just like,
this is so unfair. So that's what inspired her new show.
Have they started shooting yet they start this summer? Man,
I hope they cast Pretty V. Man. Pretty V would
be so perfect on that show, dropping the clues bombs
with Pretty V. But I can't wait to see what
EASA cooks up all right now, DMX will be honored

(51:00):
at a public memorial service at the Barclay Center in Brooklyn.
So that's going to happen later on this month, and
so yeah, just letting you guys know, because I know
a lot of people have been saying, if I want
to pay respect to DMX, how can I do that?
So we'll have those details for you as they are
coming in. They had a ride out the city this

(51:20):
Sunday where rough Ride has had like a huge borrow
to borrow ride. I've seen a lot of people riding
out this weekend for DMX, thousands of bikes out there, right,
And Meek Mill also said that he wants to ride
out for DMX in the New York area as well.
So that's what he had said, and then there was
all right. In addition to that, DMX's fiance has opened

(51:40):
up about her loss. Desiree Lyndstrom is her name, and
she posted the first night we met and you helped
me close, I knew I would never let go got
I was lost in you and nothing else mattered. My
best friend, my baby, my love, truly, my everything. Thank
you for us, thank you for Exodus, Thank you God
for Earl Simmons forever X. So she also has a
large town two which says dog Love, which sits over

(52:02):
a large exit. They have a four year old son
together exodus, so we want to send her love and
condolences as well, definitely sending her healing energy. Now, Sharon
Osborne has done her first TV appearance since leaving her
daytime talk show, and she talks to Bill Maher on
a Real Time Here's what she says, how are you?

(52:24):
It's so many different things. I'm angry, I'm hurt. Who's
the racist and why? This is what I'm trying to
figure out me too, I've been cold so many things
in my life. I am so used to being cold Thames,
but a racist is one I will not take. I
don't understand the other side of the argument there in
other words, like you have to agree with everything Megan

(52:46):
Markle says, or you're a racist. Okay, I didn't watch
that whole interview, but I'll be interested to see what
actually happened with Bill Maher And I don't know if
that's what class of her as a racist because she
didn't agree with Megan Markle. I find it hilarious that
they keeps saying that's the first time sharing is focused

(53:06):
since this situation has happened. They just screed up or
raised Kevin Frasier's interview, and Kevin Frasier was out here
caping for Sharon Hall. Didn't know when she did that interview.
I didn't. I don't think she was let go or
left the show of the talk yet. So I think
they're saying this is the first time since they all right, yeah,

(53:27):
so that news came out after that, all right, Now,
Little nas X there were some backlash last week after
a video surface of his mother soliciting money with a
sign in Atlanta, and his father did come to his defense,
and you know now he also has said, I hate
speaking on my personal life, but y'all don't know how
many knights I've cried myself to sleep feeling guilty because
nothing I tried would help my mom. Paint me as

(53:48):
the bad guy all you want, but at the end
of the day, you know me outside of this You
don't know me outside of this internet ish. So if
y'all saw that video and people were saying, oh, how
little nas X, and I didn't, really I did that
man whoever taped his mom like that? That was whack.
That was totally whack. All right. A Little nas X
also answered some questions that kids had about coming out

(54:10):
of the closets, and it was posted on a recent
episode of the YouTube show Arts and Wraps. Here's what
it sounded like. What does it mean to come out
of the closet. It means you're like, hey, everybody on
this thing, and you guys didn't even know that, but
now you know why people in the closet in the
first place. We think about what other people think about us.
So once we tell somebody was this thing or that thing,
the mind shifts completely and it doesn't matter how close

(54:33):
you are to them or whatever. All right, I think,
And you know, he put out a new T shirt line.
I don't know if you guys had a chance to
see this, but one of the shirts says I heard Jesus,
and then under it it says and that one part
in the Montero music video by Little nas X when
he gets nasty with the devil because it was a
cool form of self expression and art. And then he

(54:53):
has another shirt, yeah, shirt yes. And then he has
another shirt that says, I watched the Montero by Little
nos X and like that was this Elogi shirt and
now I'm also gay and love Satan. What all that
ain't on the T shirt? He making report. It is
believe snive in the group chat. How does all that

(55:14):
happen on a T shirt? It's a smaller print underneath,
because then underneath it's really small. But yes, what do
you think about that? I just thought about myself as
some great sweatpants. Everything you said this could apply to
me in great sweatpants. What tiny as hell, tiny print print,
small as hell, poky me getting nasty with the devil?

(55:38):
All right, well that for that, you said everything I said?
All right, well that is your report. Goodness gracious, all right,
God damn, it's a real T shirt. It looks like
the thing that they told you, you know when you
look at the doctor's office and you gotta do the
eye test. Looks like all right, who are you giving that? Donkey?
You man? We need a young woman named Lilyana Carrillo

(56:00):
to come to the front of the congregation talking about
dancing with the devil? Are playing with the devil? Or
dealing with the devil? This is all the devil. We'll
talk about it four after that, it's time for donkey
of the day. So being dunky of the day, a
little bit of a mixed so like a dope. The

(56:20):
other day. Now, I've a lot in my twenty three years.
That donkey of the day is a wife. Yeah, dunkey
today for Monday, April nineteenth, goes to a Bakersfield, California
woman named Liliana Carrillo. I think I pronounced her name right.
I hate to start the week off so dark. Calling
these twisted humans like Liliana donkeys feels like such an understatement.

(56:43):
But here we are okay. The world as we know
it has been turned inside out. It's like we all
woke up in an alternate universe. Common sense is not common.
Writer has looked at his wrong and vice versa. Good
has looked at his evil and vice versa. And God,
what is that? People here talking about believing in and
can't wait to tell you how much they don't believe
in God, and their actions show it. So when you

(57:04):
see stories like Liliana Carrillo, you can't even be surprised
because based off everything else we are seeing in this world.
You know, if i'd a shout over doubt that she
believes the bs coming out of her mouth. See Liliana Carrillo,
How can I say this? She killed all her kids,
three of them, ages six months, two, and three years old. Yes,

(57:28):
I just said that Liliana Carrillo killed all of her kids,
ages six months, two and three years old. Would you
like to know why? Let's go to kget NBC seventeen
for the report. Police the suspect and a horrific Los
Angeles murder admits to seventeen News she killed her three children.
Lilyana Carrillo made the confession to seventeen's Aton Wallace. Did

(57:49):
you kill your children? I drove them, I hugged them,
and I kissed them, and I'm apologizing the whole time.
I love my kids. Carrillo broke down in tears, saying
she drowned her children to protect them from their father,
with whom she was in a bitter custody dispute. She
alleged he was involved in human trafficking. I didn't want
them to be further abused. I look like it, Like

(58:12):
I said, I wish that this didn't be the case,
that I wasn't going to pised to protect. Last month,
the children's father asked a court to require Careo to
undergo a mental health evaluation. He also told the La
Times he tried to get help for carel from child
protective authorities, but added they did not immediately get involved.
The father was supposed to see the children's Sunday, but

(58:34):
the day before, authority say the children's grandmother discovered the
bodies of three year old Joanna, two year old Terry,
and six month old Sierra at this apartment in Racita,
Bakershild Prosecutors say later in the day Carel's car broke
down as she drove through Current County. When a good
Samaritan stopped to help, she allegedly stole his car. I
tried getting to the top of a cliff so I
could drive myself off and die, but before she could

(58:56):
carry that out, she was arrested a couple hours later
into Larry County. WHOA, hey, hey, he it have it heavy.
So you killed your three kids because you were trying
to protect them from their father. Okay, let's unpack this,
as my therapist would say. Eric Denton, who is the
father of the children, as you heard in the news report,
petition the court for custody on March first, alleging that

(59:18):
Carillo was delusional and had taken the kids and refused
to tell them where they were. Carrillo then father, rescreening
order against her baby daddy and claimed Denton was an
alcoholic who may have sexually abused that eldest child a
bunch of tip for tat. Now, this case went all
through family courts in LA counties. The parents you know,
traded accusations back and forth as dozens of court documents.

(59:39):
You know, police were called, social workers consulted, they saved
text messages and Facebook posts, and just last week a
judge agreed to move the case to Lare County, where
hearing was scheduled for this Wednesday. But clearly that won't
be happening now. It's so much that sad about this situation.
Number one of these kids are dead. Number two, that
all of this could have been prevented. It if people

(01:00:01):
actually took eric, didn't the baby daddy more serious as
the father. A lot of times in these cases, nobody
wants to listen to the man, the mom, the woman
has automatically looked at as the one who is right,
who has to be the victim of some sort. I've
seen it a dozen times. I got homeboys who've been
accused of violence or abuse in these custody cases. Simply
because a lot of women and lawyers know that that

(01:00:21):
is the way to win these cases. Eric Didn't, the
baby daddy claimed in custody hearings that Lilyana Carrillo suffered
from postpartum depression along with other mental health issues. He
said this where his claims taken seriously. Clearly not, but
I bet you due to his claims, Lilyana's defense attorney
will use those claims to prove she's mentally unfit to
stand trial. Do we not see how effed up the

(01:00:44):
judicial system is when Eric Didn't is telling the coach
his baby mother is delusional, has postpartum and suffers from
mental health issues in order to get custody of the kids.
It's a back and forth. It's not taking as serious
as it should be. But now after she kills the
kids and needs to defend herself in court, those same
claims will probably be used to get her off. Men
need to be taken more serious in child custody cases.

(01:01:05):
If you see a man fighting to be in his
child's life and telling you the court that something is
off with the wife, listen to him. Okay, here's the thing.
Men don't want to do this. Most men I know
who are fighting for custody of their kids. They wanted
to be an equal thing. Dads just want equal custody
rights most of the time fifty fifties. So when you
see a man trying to get full custody of their kids,
I'm telling you he knows something that's wrong. All right.

(01:01:27):
There's a lot of gender bias in these custody cases.
One common assumption is that women are more nurturing and
natural caretakers than men. Me, Brother, Lenard, Uncle Charlot, Charlomagne,
the God, I believe that. So when I hear a
man saying that that's not the case, I'm gonna listen.
But it's because of that stereotype that courts are almost
always biased toward women during the custody battle. For Look

(01:01:49):
what that bias got us In the case of Liliana Carrillo,
she killed her kids because she wanted to protect him
from the father. I had to look up the definition
of protection just to make sure I know a protection
still means. Protection means a person or thing that prevents
someone or something from suffering harm or injury. Not to mention,
they asked her if she had any regrets. Letsten to

(01:02:09):
what she said, can your regret her actions? I wish
my kids were alive. Yes, so I wish that I
didn't have to do that. Yes, but I'm I prefer
them not being tortured and abused on a regular basis
for the rest of their life. I love my kids.
Like I said, I wish that this didn't not be
the case to protect. The worst the father could do

(01:02:35):
to those kids is what you did to them, and
that's killed him. Please give Lileana Carillo the biggest see
hall tragic, tragic situation. Yes it is all right, Well,
thank you for that donkey of the day. Yeah, let's
let's let's lighten it up a little bit. Eight hundred

(01:02:57):
five eight five one oh five one. Now ye has
been talking about this story behind the scenes about Lizzo.
What happened with Lizzo? Ye, Well, she put out this
these emoji showing that she was shooting her shot. It
was three emojis. It was like a gust of win somebody,
a woman playing basketball and a basketball emoji. So she
sent that to Chris Evans. Obviously a lot of women

(01:03:17):
like Chris Evans, and she said he's an actor. He
was just in knives out? Did you see that? No
knives out? All right? So a lot of girls like
Chris Evans. So anyway, um, he actually did just respond
last night, so she's really excited about that. But you know,
you missed one hundred percent of the shots. You don't
take right, That's what they always say. So I'm wondering,

(01:03:39):
has anybody ever tried to shoot their shot and it's
actually worked out like you did for Lizzo? And now
he's following her on Instagram. He sent her a message

a little l You talk about Chris Evans Captain America?
Yea captain? Okay, so we have Lizzle speaking about it too, right,

(01:04:01):

this one, it's because I know I'm not gonna be
able to marry him, And honestly, it hurts me to
the core because damn Pappa, he a rare breath. But
he did respond it. He did respond after that. He
did respond after that. But she was just a little
you know, she put it on her TikTok that she

(01:04:23):
shot has shot at him, and then he did respond,
I just read it to you, No shame in the
drunk DM, God knows I've done worse on this app

There's no doubt about it. Don't want you to talk.
I want you to talk about me like you just

(01:05:56):
right eight. We're asking have you ever shot your shot
with somebody at the work? Let's start with you. Ye Um.
You know what, it works out when I try to
book people for things or like get something, it does work.
And I'm so reluctant to ever ask people for anything

(01:06:17):
or ask for help. But you know, maybe it should
be times when you're a little more aggressive and just
shutting out that little like hey, we'd love to get
you on lip service. Hey we'd love to you know,
get you on this wealth Wednesdays. And it has worked
out for me before, Well, you talked about relationship shots.
But all right, let's go to the phone. I'm in
a relationship for a little befoore you that stupid question.

(01:06:40):
Have you ever shot your shot with somebody and it worked? Yes?
On social media? On social media? Like Lezo justed, she
slid in his DMS while she was drunk and it
worked out. Left it on social media, part out on
social media? All right. I was kind of flustered because
you like Chris Evans more than me. But hello, who's

(01:07:00):
this Hey? He said, Well, well, good morning. We're asking
have you ever shot your shot on social media with
somebody and it worked out for you? Actually it did.

so you missed you don't take okay, right right? I
know that's right. Hello, who's this Jo? What's up? What's up? Bro?

(01:07:46):
We're asking have you ever shot your shot with somebody
on social media and it worked out? Uh? Social media? No,
but I've done on in real life. What happened? Uh?
I was just happened, remember yea man's you know this
is terrible hurricane. It was just it happened arond Hurricane
Sandy time, like right before that hurricane hit h New

(01:08:08):
York and all that. I was in Atlanta and I
just broke it on my ex girlfriend and uh, she
had her flight delayed or whatever in Atlanta, and then
she wanted chilled because she was scared. Whatever. Anyway, I
goes to here, she leaves, and now I'm stuck in
Atlanta for the weekend with nothing to do. So I

(01:08:29):
go bar hopping. And when I go bar hopping, I
see this chick, just model chick. Can you get to
it her? Exactly? I'm nervous, sorry, and I'm about to
block you. Bro started talking hit it off, and when
we hit it off, she ended up coming back to
the hotel. She probably does. I don't know what's happening
in Hurricane hurricane said this could be our last days

(01:08:53):
pretty much again, that's crazy. It was, it was nothing
else to do, and I was, I was, I'm a
bar hopping and and I had like two or three
on islands. I started her. I did the whole let
me see she wants to drink me barry drinking and
she started. We started talking and she was like, you
know what, most guys don't only come up to me,
they're just they're too scared to talk. And I was like,

(01:09:14):
I didn't think you would say hi to mean and
well she did liquid that liquid courage. Basically, you had
to tell her that she's about to die in order
her to sleep with you. It worked, didn't us? Eight
hundred five A five one five one. Have you ever
shot your shot with somebody on social media and it worked?
Call us up right now? Is the Breakfast Club? God morning,

(01:09:44):
call me at your opinions to the Breakfast Club top
Come on, I did five to five one o five
one morning. Everybody is d ch Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne
the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Now.
If you just joined us, we're talking about Lizzo. You
want to break down what happened with Lizzo. Ye, yeah,

(01:10:05):
she shot her shot at Chris Evans. Now we don't
know how much is gonna come out of this, but
we do know that A he replied to her, and
B he is now following her. So that's just dope.
All right. So we're asking eight hundred five eighty five
one O five one? Have you ever shot your shot
on social media and it worked? Let's go to the
phone lines. Hello, who's this? Yo? Yo? Yo? This fight
man from Check the Peace. We're asking, have you ever

(01:10:26):
shot your shot on social media? Any worked? Bro? Yeah?
My shot with my girl I'm waiting now, man. It
was one night jump off the emdagry. I had a
shot in her inbox man and everything. They pretty good?
How did you do it? Did you know her before?
That was a stranger? Was he was the football team
on my football team. So when I first meet her, no,

(01:10:50):
she comes me out. So about three months later, jump
off the industry one night after her inbox and were together.
Now over here we lived together about the couple. Yes,
that is cute. And your kids played on the team together.
That's so cute. I love you. Okay, okay, all right,

(01:11:10):
but let's go to a little cola. Hello, who's this data? Hey,
good morning. We're asking have you ever shot your shot
with somebody to work? Yes, it did so back in
twenty fifteen one eve, I shot my shot at my
fiance on Snapchat and I just said happy New Years.
And then after that we just started talking and then

(01:11:30):
started dated and now four years later we're engaged. Wow,
that's done. I'm a little happy New Year. So was
that you trying to hold him or yeah? To be honest,
like I always kind of had my eye on him,
but he was always in a relationship every time, like
I saw him on like Instagram or stuff. And then

(01:11:51):
I just noticed, like I was kind of like working
on Instagram and I was like, oh wait, he's not
with a female right now. So I just shot my
shot at night and it words, Wow, Okay, that's cute,
and that's good because it's not like you being too aggressive.
You're just like, hey, happy New Year, and that's a
good little conversation starter. It's innocent, and that's the funny part.
I was like, I don't know if this is done work,

(01:12:12):
and he actually opened it. So all right, let's see
all these success stories again. You gotta just put yourself
out there sometimes. Yeah, that's true. All right, well, thank
you mama. Now what's the moral of the story. If
there is a moral, I think we've been saying it
from the beginning. You miss one hundred percent of the
shots you don't take. The worst thing that could happen
is you left on red and the person doesn't respond

(01:12:34):
to you. But the best thing that can happen is
some of the success stories we just heard now, people
get married, people living together, about to get engaged. So
I don't know nothing about shooting those shots. I'm retired, man,
you know what I'm saying. My knees been gave out
on me, my jersey being in the rafts. Okay, all right,
go for it respectfully, But you can also shoot your
shot when it comes to business, when it comes to work.

(01:12:55):
It doesn't just have to be relationships. But again, if
you don't even go for it, ever happened there? You go?
All right? Well, we got rumors on the way, yes,
and let's talk about porn addiction. Will tell you what
actor is saying that porn addiction was difficult for him
to overcome, and he feels like there's a lack of
information about it. All right, we'll get into that next
keeping locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast

(01:13:17):
Club Morning. Everybody is dj Envy, Angela, Ye, Charlomagne the guy.
We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors
to talk Jake Paul. This is the rumor report with
Angela years all right, Well, if anybody watched this fight

(01:13:40):
over the weekend, it was Jake Paul versus former MMA
fighter Ben Askering, and it was the trailer Fight Club
ring Saturday night, and a lot of people are's saying
they believe that it was rigged. After Jake Paul knocked
Asking out in the first round. But prior to that fight,
Pete Davidson and Jack Harlowe went to go see Jake
Paul the locker room and things got uncomfortable for Jake

(01:14:02):
Paul as this line of questioning happened. I was gonna
ask you about it. I was like, so, how are
you feeling? Like, how are you? No? I'm not, I'm not, no,
I'm nothing. What God believed out and now now what
he was asking him about was the sexual assault allegations

(01:14:24):
that he's facing. And so that was a question Davidson
ask now when you yeah, right, when you see it,
you know it's it's bleeped out now when you see
it online. And last week Jake Paul had posted about
these accusations and he said it's not something that I
or anyone should ever take lightly. But to be crystal clear,
this claim it against me is one hundred percent false.
Not only have I never had any sexual relationship with

(01:14:45):
this individual, but this claim is solely a manufactured accusation
and a blatant attempt for attention during a highly visible
fight week Yeah, I mean, Pete have the right to asking,
Jake Paul has the right to not answer, so I
respect it all. I started to order that fight this weekend,
but I just couldn't bring my self to do it.
I saw forty nine ninety nine. I'm like, there's no winning. Hell,
I'm paying forty nine ninety nine for this fight. I

(01:15:06):
just couldn't see myself doing that. I just I just
didn't feel right. I'm a boxing guy. I love boxing,
but that ain't that ain't it? Bro? Forty nine ninety nine? Nah?
All right? Now? Kevin Durant was asking in the top
five players he's ever played with during an appearance a
million dollars worth of game podcast, and here's what was said.

(01:15:26):
Top five players you ever played with, Kyrie James, stuff, Clay,
I'm gonna go, Sergi Baka. Yeah, I thought somebody else
was so just so I forgot somebody south Central A Russell.
Oh damn, I am tripping Russ. Yeah, I'm tripping. Yeah,

(01:15:46):
I'm just making sure yet I dare forget about Russ.
Russ would definitely be tough. Five First of all, dropping
a clue bomb for Wallow and Gilly. Okay, million dollars
worth of game is out here cooking and Kay, but
Kay didn't know what he's doing. Katie knew what he
was doing with it, as saluted Gillow and Wally for
cutting out that in part when y'all posted on social media,
because I don't even see him mentioned Russell at all

(01:16:08):
in those clips y'all posted last night. So that was
great marketing. Some people felt like maybe Katie was trolling,
because he's known to do things like that. He was
maybe in that moment he really was just wasn't thinking.
You don't you don't forget Russell Westbrook you played for
him from Wild Long had a crazy breakup like no
he knows that he was trolling, all right, and three

(01:16:29):
time NBA champion Dwyane Wade has purchasing ownership stake in
the Utah Jazz. He's joining majority owner and team governor
Ryan Smith, and his plan is to take an active
role in the franchise and the regions. So he said,
this goes away beyond the dream I had to just
play basketball and the NBA. I've seen Shack do it
in Sacramento. I've seen Grant Hill do it in Atlanta.
I've seen Jordan do it in Charlotte. If this partnership

(01:16:49):
is going to be any really, there are going to
be a lot of things that I want to be
involved in. I don't know what you congratulations like you
just said congrats dropping a clue bond for d What
I didn't know Shaq had minority ownership is Sacramental. I
didn't know you knew about grand Hill in Atlanta and
the other one? Who else did he say? I knew

(01:17:10):
about Jordan, I didn't know about shocking Um. I didn't
know about Sacramental one. If us she still owns a
bit of Cleveland. He was a minority owner in the
Calves at one point Nellie was too us. Nellie was
the owner and the hornets all right. Now, post Malone
has become the youngest artist with three Diamond singles, so
that's another congratulations to him. One of the songs. There's

(01:17:31):
congratulations with Quavo, rock Star with twenty one Savage, and
Sunflower with Swallie. They've all crossed the ten million saleshold.
Never heard him. I'm sure they sound good. Never heard congrats?
All right, a little Dirk. His concert ended early after
people thought that they heard gunfire, but it wasn't, so
let's be clear on that. I know there was like

(01:17:51):
some rumors going around at that, but they said there
was various videos that were posted showing people running to
the exit chairs getting knocked over. But they said it
was just a mirccrophone dropping on the ground which made
a loud noise. So there they said, no gunshots, no nothing.
Reports of a woman being grazed by a bullet are
also false, and nobody required paramedic attention amidst the chaos,
and there's nobody in custody. Nothing like that. You can

(01:18:13):
never be too short nowadays, Okay, duck first, ask questions later. Yeah,
there was ten thousand people. Over ten thousand people at
that performance, smirk cella. All right, Mark Anthony, his worldwide
virtual concert failed due to technical No, no, you just
ended that we fail? Can we just ended that film?

(01:18:36):
First of all, I had no idea he was doing
a Mark Anthony story. I've been giving dramas hell about
Mark Anthony and this studio all morning long for no reason.
Not I don't even know why. I was just saying
Mark Anthony could never Scott. Now. The concert was supposed
to stream in eighty five countries, but there wasn't a

(01:18:57):
frame of video to show for it at all. He
posted said, first of all, i want to say thank
you from the bottom of my heart to the unprecedented
amount of fans from all over the world that tried
to log in to watch my concert tonight and we're
not able to join due to the overwhelming demand. It
caused a complete collapse of the streaming platform. I'm deeply
sorry for this technology failure that was unfortunately out of

(01:19:18):
our control. You can rest assured that I'm doing everything
in my power to make sure the people that spent
their heart and money have the opportunity to see the
show as soon as possible, and I'll make it right
for you all. That's to clean up on our three.
I think that nobody showed up, being that nobody showed
them that the demand is too high. Now, okay, Mark
Anthony looks like an X ray of a skeleton. That's

(01:19:39):
my final answer. What does that have to do with anything? Nothing?
Did you did you? Did you tune in this weekend dramas? Heaven? Exactly? Ladies, ladies?
What in these ladies? Ladies didn't support your own people dramas? Damn?
All right, well that is your report, all right, thank you.

(01:20:04):

up dollar bill. This is a diamond selling artist. So
