another case is hit in New Jersey. One case is
hit in New Jersey confirmed right eleven in New York
and I read a story yesterday where they said that
they're and you know, we're saying that, you know, for
everybody listening to us in other markets, because we broadcast

(01:25):
in New York, right. But I read a story yesterday
they said it might close down New Jersey schools potentially. Well,
they've already closed down schools in Washington and some of
the some cities in Washington, some of the schools are closed.
So not going on. I'm not going front. I have
a lot of anxiety. My kids haven't seen school in
the last two days, three days, So I'm not gonna front.
I don't even I don't know if I'm going to

(01:46):
school today. I'm just hey, I'm a parent. I mean,
I mean, at the end of the day, there's really
nothing you can do except for you know, take people
take to take the measures to you know, wash your hands,
sneething yarm. There's nothing really you can do if if
you get it, you get I went to the Brooklyn
Next game yesterday, and you know how they're telling the
NBA players to just fist bump, ye, So everybody was
just fist bumping yesterday. Nobody was shaking hands or anything.

(02:08):
It was a some people were just doing an elbow
bump even Yeah, well they say that the person that
contracted it in New Jersey had contact with one of
the eleven people I got it in New York, so right, um, hey,
and you don't want to play with it. For everybody
out there that saying stuff like, oh this is a
whole oh yeah, I mean list it could be. But
guess what, I'm not taking no chances because coronavirus might

(02:30):
just want to show you he ain't no game, do
you know what I mean? He might pull up on
You're like, hey, I don't want you to know him real.
I believe someone also died in California. They had they've
declared a state of emergency. There a whole state of emergency. Yeah,
because one person died, Yeah, their first death that was
Was he somebody that was sick? Did he had respiratory
problems or was he just you know, well, we're gonna
talk about it during frontagions. I don't want to give
everything away. What makes it the state of emergency because

(02:53):
I mean, it's other things out there that caused people
to die. So if one person dies from something, why
why is this? Why is that considered the state of emergency.
Well that person was on the cruise. Yeah, they said,
if the snow is too bad, sometimes they call it
a state of emergency. But usually when they do a
state of emergency like that, they want people off the
roads and not driving and activate certain agencies. Right. So, yeah,

(03:13):
well it's affecting a lot of things south by Southwest.
I'm sure you heard about all the huge corporations pulling
out of that festival, because that's happening like next week. Yeah,
next week, next week, Thursday. I was supposed to go
out there, all right. Well, oh, and since I was
at the Brooklyn Nets game Staddresses High, she heard a
shout out. She works for the Brooklyn Nets. She got
a promotion yesterday and she gave me hoodies for you guys,
okay to have, So I went there. They have these

(03:35):
new Kings of New York and that's twenty twenty dot
com hoodies as you get ready for the next season.
So one for Envy, one for Charlotte Mine. And they said,
if you guys for next season want court sides seats
to any game, you get to choose a game that
you would like to go to the next season for
the Nelda virus, but being a little making planning for

(03:57):
next season, Yeah, for next twenty twenty because you y'all
might want to for money, Okay, I want to pick
a game that's a popular game. Okay, but you know what,
you know what? Who make? And I hate to think
about money at a time like this, But whoever can
do an instant coronavirus test you, you would make billions
because there is no instant. You gotta wait two three days, right,

(04:17):
you gotta wait two three days for the results. So
there's no way you're telling for those those two three
days if you're not, If you don't quarantine yourself, why
would I be in a rush than though I got
coronavirus so that you can start, you don't spread it
to you yet quiet by the time you got by
the time you guys, you don't realize you got until
you got the symptoms, right, not necessarily. I haven't heard
nobody getting pre checks. And you're like, oh, you pre
you're prediagnosa. No, not a pre check. You're saying once

(04:39):
you have it, like if you have if you have
your coughing and you have food like symptoms, you can
because you're saying, don't go to the doctor. You have
to call first because they don't want you to spread it.
So that way, if you're at home, you can check
yourself for it, so you know to quarantine yourself, not
go anywhere. I don't they have an instant HIV test
now where you could you could swab or something like
that been around. I will say this, um, by the way,
we're doing HIV testing at the Juice Bar on Saturday,

(05:01):
and you'll find out on spot one thing we know
about the coronavirus. This too shall pass, just like all
the other diseases that have come and gone. We just
we just hope that we don't pass with make it
th that's right, all right, Well, let's get the show
cracking now. The cast of State of the Coach will
be joining us this morning. Who's the cast of the
State of the Culture. That's Ebony Jinks, Joe Button and Remy,

(05:22):

Budden and Jinks and we'll be kicking and kicking with
them this morning. But let's go. Let's get the cracking.
Let's go, Let's get to crack. Let's get the show cracking.
Front page New we're talking about. All right, we are
going to be talking about more coronavirus updates. We'll give
you what's happening across the nation and across the world.
All right, let's do that. Next it is to Breakfast Club,
Go Morning Morning. Everybody is CJ mvy Angela Yee, Charlomagne

(05:48):
the god. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's getting some
front page news what we saw wee. Well, let's start
talking about coronavirus now. After their first death from coronavirus,
California has declared a state of emergency. That person did
go on a cruise, a Princess Cruise ship that departed
February tenth from San Francisco and return I went to

(06:10):
Mexico returned February twenty. First, that person had been placed
in isolation with tested positive on Tuesday. They first developed
symptoms while on the cruise and continued to show symptoms
while traveling through the port of San Francisco. They called
nine one one, they were transported by the hospital and
then they tested positive on Sunday. They tested on Sunday,

(06:30):
return positive on Tuesday, and then died Wednesday morning. So
that's what happened in that situation. Now, California has thirty
six cases of coronavirus, and that's that one death that
did happen. So that's why there's now a state of
emergency there. I'm gonna tell you something, Man, if I
see you are a running nose, or if you cough
and you sneezing, I'm treating like you got coronavirus. Well,

(06:50):
let me tell you what to do and how to
tell if you have coronavirus. If you have a fever
or cough or running nose, any type of symptoms similar
to the common cold or the flu, but you feel
like you can manage it yourself with over the counter drugs.
Then they said, if it wasn't for coronavirus, you wouldn't
see a doctor. Don't go see a doctor. They said,
just quarantine yourself, treat it at home. Yeah, but how

(07:12):
do you know if you have well, you might, you
might not, or you might. But here's what they said.
If your symptoms are more severe, if you have a
fever that won't go away, shortness of breath, if you're
extremely fatigued, then you call the doctor. And they said,
if you don't want to go and go to the
emergency room, because if you don't have it, you could
end up getting it. And if you don't have a fever,

(07:32):
they said, you probably don't have the coronavirus. But they
said the problem is that you don't want to go there.
You don't want to flood emergency rooms like you would
if you had the common cold. Because most of the
cases people aren't dying from You can treat it. And
how do you quarantine yourself at home when you got
a wife and kids? How do you quarantine yourself at home?
You got pets because pets catch you too, right, how
do you quarantine yourself at home in one room? Tell

(07:55):
people don't come near me. That's very hard when you
got a one year old and a four year older.
They don't understand that three year olds of balls. She
does what she wants to do. Better, hide and close
that door, because you don't want to get them sick.
They think you playing hide and goal seeks. They really
trying to find you, trying to find that corona. Where's daddy?
Where's daddy? Right now, there's one hundred fifty nine cases
of the coronavirus across the United States. Texas and New

(08:15):
Jersey have identified their first presumptive cases of the coronavirus
according to authorities, so those are the upstates. Amazon is
recommending all Seattle employees work from home until the end
of the month. Right now, the US has only been
able to perform about thirty six hundred tests so far,
so we don't even know really for real how many
people do have it, because it might be people who
have it who haven't gotten tested. One thousand New Yorkers

(08:38):
are being asked to self quarantine. Facebook, Dick closes in
office in Seattle, and a New York school district in
Mount Vernon is closing all of its schools and all
of its offices until March ninth. Now, south By Southwest,
we told you that's going to be happening. That's supposed
to be happening, and right now they are still saying
they're on board March thirteenth to the twenty second, but
a lot of companies have pulled it out. Netflix was

(08:59):
a second company to pull out the south By Southwest yesterday,
following Apple, and the two companies are not the only
ones who are quitting the festival. Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, Vivo, Intel, China, Gathering, Matchaboll,
TikTok Latin x house all of that have all dropped
out in recent days as well. Man, I might need

(12:46):
Arnold Classic. Pretty much it's like where everybody comes from
all around the world. Pretty much show off a little
body building, a bodybuild, and wait listing. Yeah, pretty much
all that, and they canceled the whole thing. You sound
disappointed that you're not gonna get to see them oily, sweaty,
muscle bound men. You know, at first, honestly, I wanted
to give myself together this year, you know what I'm saying.

(13:08):
I finally took it upon myself to get more healthy,
and then all this coronas is going on and I
don't know what to do. Now excuse me, because oh,
so you mean you got diesel, you took some steroids
to be in the Arnold event, and what you're saying,
I'm not in the event. I just wanted to go
that work because it's like a network. You wanted to

(13:28):
go see them muscle bound sweaty men. I understand that.
She was. Humm, I'm saying, you don't want to disappointed, man,
So I meant five eight five, one oh five one.
If you need to vent hit us up. Now, it's
the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Wake up,

(13:53):
wake up, wake ya. You're trying to get it off
your chest because your man, I'm blast you want to
hear from you. Hello, who's this? This is Danita Howard here, Hey, Denia,
get it off your chess. So I have a co worker.
The co worker is going on a cruise ship to Mexico. Now,
I'm typically up early and I was listening to the

(14:14):
radio and I overheard you guys saying that the guy.
Now I know it was a seventy year old man
who went on the cruise ship to Mexico when he died.
So now I feel some types of way about her
going on this trip. Oh man, I don't even know
what to tell you, because these cruises right now, you know,
it's a little iffy. And that's what I'm saying. I
feel like we should be able to Now there's a

(14:34):
lot of underlying issues. Another thing is that I'm the
only woman of color at this firm, right, so, so
there's some issues there too, because I feel like I'm
the only one that's freaking out, and everybody's gets okay
with it. But I'm not, like, you know, just now
there's a death and we have an issue here, Wow
tell you it didn't be allowed to go? In my opinion,
I don't know allowed to go? Well, maybe she can.

(14:55):
Probably a lot of places are letting you postponed trips
right now with no fees. So what to know? How
should we go about telling her that? Because I'm actually
higher up, I think you should just I think you
should just have a conversation with it, the same way
that people are canceling like these large events like software software.
You should tell her like, look, I don't know if
you should go out the country truth be told, she
might get quarantined. I saw a video the other day

(15:17):
that had a bunch of people on a cruise ship
going stir crazy because they've been quarantined there for so long.
So why risk it? Why go out there and get stuck?
You know what I mean? And exactly where a firm
of all women, like I said, I'm the only woman
to call her, but we're all women, we all have children, right,
and nobody else is freaking out about it but me.
So it's I'm not tellering. I'm not questioning my blackness,
but I'm questioning it a little bit of what they

(15:39):
got going on. Why if somebody freaking out? But me,
if she goes, you just make sure she can't come
back until she gets tested. That's what actually, I think
that's that's a good idea to her about it that way. Yeah,
you know, I heard a story about a person who
went on a cruise and when they came back from
the cruise, their place of employment just told them to
stay with the hella Yet you know what I'm saying, smart, Yeah,

(15:59):
sure they're good. Yeah, I don't want to affect the
whole place. So she she gold, she takes the risk,
but you know I would I wouldn't let her come
back to the job because she gets tested. Hello, who's this?
Good morning? Good morning Willies from Florida. Hey, Willie from Florida.
Get it off her chest. I didn't want to spread
it up positivity. You know, lately I've been dealing with depression.

All right, Well, let's get to the little committee. Is

(18:52):
Oh my goodness, this is the rumor report, ye on
the breakfast club. Well, there's a new feature that Twitter
is adding, and they start testing fleets, and that's gonna
actually start testing today. It's basically stories. You can post

(19:13):
the photos, videos, and text. It disappears after twenty four hours.
And obviously we know about this from Snapchat and Instagram
and all of that. So now Twitter is gonna have this.
You late to the party. Twitter, Instagram doesn't better, all right.
Pharrell has listed his house for sale in Beverly Hills
for seventeen million dollars. He bought it two years ago
from Tyler Perry and it's over seventeen thousand square feet.

(19:35):
It has a yeah, ten bedrooms, eleven bathrooms. So if
anybody's interested, it is now listed for seventeen million dollars.
He bought that, like I said, for fifteen point six
million from Tyler Perry to Tyler Perry just makes money.
Tyler Perry didn't invite a living. He just bought it
to invest in, and they said he didn't do anything
and he made it over million dollars. That's great. What
has interested me? Don't call if you're interested, call if
you got to God, everybody, I'm interested. I'm definitely interested,

(20:00):
I write. A group of seniors at Princeton University are
upset that Marshawn Lynch was selected as their class speaker
for class day. They don't know what they got why right,
so the reason they wrote an op ed in their paper,
The Daily Princetonian. They said their main reason for being
disappointed was because we did not feel included in the
process by which the speaker was nominated and finally selected.

(20:23):
They also said they took issue with the idea that
he was selected to represent the entire student body. There's
nobody that's going to represent the entire student no matter
who you pick. A little privilege entitled cage mad that
they not involved with the process. I got yourself nice,
they said, saying that Lynch has unapologetically embodied and advocated
for our own identities and values without officially consulting us.

(20:44):
The Princeton community is paradoxical and thus questionable. Looking at
Marshawn Lynch is even gracing y'all with his presence. Yeah,
but you know how mars Shawn Lynch is. He will
be like f y'all. Yeah, he little bougie Bretts, know
what I'm saying. All Right, Claudia Jordan is going to
be the new host of the Love and Hip Hop Reunions.
So congratulations to her. Okay, that's a good casting. Yeah,

(21:04):
so she should have a great time with that. Dropping
includes to murder. She got a show on Fox Soul.
Now she's doing this all right. Drake is at the
center of this conversation between Melissa Ford and Tacarra Jones.
Now Melissa Ford has her podcast I'm Here for the Food,
and Takara, who's a good friend of hers was on
the podcast and they recall the time that they were

(21:26):
both dealing with the same guy. She's telling me that
we're dating the same guy, and you know what I
said to him, what I said to her, I was
just like, knock yourself out. I didn't have to have
a conversation with him. I was going. I mean I
did eventually, you know, not eventually, probably like the next
day or something like that, because he called me. I
just want to finish it off with saying this that
there was no way I was losing my friend to

(21:49):
this guy, no matter who the fuz it was. Can
I say it? Hit it? Drake dropclues. Never been a
huge fan of his music. Uh really, I've never been.
I've never been a fan of Drake singing. I love
when he's singing, But She's like, I love when he raps,
but I think women love when he sings too. I

(22:10):
like his resume, clearly resume a good resume him French
Montana and they Drake got the dropping a clue bump
of Drake. Drake moves like a rap star should move,
not even just a rap star, just a big single
music star. But I do like about this story have fun.
Aside from Drake is that Melissa and to Carve, we're
not gonna let some guy come between their friendship. And

(22:32):
a lot of times women get jealous of each other,
they fall out over a guy. I love the fact
that she said I was not losing my girlfriend. I
can guarantee you that Drake didn't want to come between
their friendship. Drake was not there for the long haul. Definitely, Okay,
that's the last thing he wanted to do was get
between them and for them type. Drake does not have
a type. He goes left right up thewn he just

(22:53):
in fact, I'm sure Drake said, were you all friends? Well,
let's just all do it together. I'm sure he put
that on the table as well. Sure they both also
knew that they weren't going to be in it for
the long haul. So why should I lose my friendship
over some guy that's clearly doing whatever. Yeah, and by
the way, machine practical decision, machine gun Mellie into car Ogeezy.
They much older than Drake, like that was just a

(23:15):
drive by for them as well. Why is everybody murder
with you? This is someone's only violent caller. You called
machine gun Mellie, and it was true what you can
be some positive true? All right now, Angie Martinez, congratulations.
Give it up for Angie Martinez twenty twenty commencement ceremony

(23:39):
speaker for Rutgers University, New York. So she'll be delivering
the keynote address. I dare y'all to act like y'all
don't want Angie mar to show up Rutgers. Don't be
like the little brats at Princeton. Okay, y'all got icon
in your present. She will also receive an honorary Doctor
of Fine Arts degree. That's what I'm talking about. She

this radio begging for an honorary doctorate from somebody, and
I can't even get that free African American Studies degree.

(24:22):
me something that wasn't school, so they would do what
school was that the HBCU. Oh I never heard this.
Maybe they take it down. Worry when when I put
out my third book, I'm eligible for honorary doctorate's God,
damn it. When you become eligible? Yes, so you've got
three books. I think somebody told me that you do that. Okay,
so that doesn't make sense. All right, just trying to

(24:45):
make myself feel better, and that is your but I
put up my third book would be eligible. We're trying
to make myself fool that I don't boost myself confidence
up in the morning. Can I make myself esteem high?
Jesus Christ? Okay, all right, all right, well we got
fromt paces. When we come back when we're talking about you, well,
you know this story has been circulating about honeypot right,
and I know you guys have seen it with the
founder of Beatrice Dixon. And what happened was she makes

(25:08):
products for women, feminine products, panty liners, pads, tampons, all
plant based, and she didn't add for target celebrating who
she is and saying that she hopes that this will
inspire young black girls when you see somebody that's an
entrepreneur doing great things in that space, and a bunch

(25:28):
of white women and who knows who else targeted her
started giving her terrible reviews and saying that it was racist.
So she's going to explain her thinking behind that ad
why she's proud to be a role model for these
young girls who get less. Well, you'll hear about her,
tell all about it. But Beatrice Dixon will be here,
the founder of Honeypot, and she'll tell you what happened

(25:51):
and why she's so proud that all these women, all
these black women and other women too that support black
and brown women rallied around her to make sure that
her products stayed on those shelves actually sold out. And yeah,
Women's History Month got all right, Well, we'll talk to
her next to the front page news, so don't move.
It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning, e j Envy, Angeline Charlomagne,

(26:12):
the God. We are the Breakfast Club. We have the
founder and CEO of the building, a special guest of
Honey Pot Company, the Honeypot Company, Yes, Beatrice Dixon, Welcome,
Good morning, Beatrice, Good morning. It's trying to take a
sister down. I saw you was there yesterday, trending day before, Yeah,
a couple of days. Yeah, what's happening? Tell us what's
going on? Well, white people, we got a ball I'm

(26:34):
always done to ball on some white people. You know what.
Before we get into that, let's talk about what the
Honeypot is, because some people might not know about the company,
why you founded the company, and while your products are
different from other products out there. So the Honeypot is
a plant based feminine hygiene company. We basically focus on
everything that a woman needs for her daily and monthly
health revolving around her vagina. Right, So it's external washes,

(26:58):
it's wife's, it's pass as, it's tampons, you know. I mean,
we've we've got like thirty five products. We got ten
new products that are about to launch and targets. So John,
I gotta stay fresh, yes, but then important, happy Happy
I did a tampact at at one point, and now
we're saying that. People were all in my comments like, oh,
you have to use the honey Pot, and I do
have your products, and I have to use your products

(27:20):
and continue to use them. As well, and so that's important.
It's important for women though, to understand the difference between
why why it's important for this to be plant based.
So why was that agut for you? Well, for me,
it's it was a major importance because I you know,
I just believe in that. I just live a holistic lifestyle.
You know. So. Um, But when you're talking about your

(27:41):
vaginal health or anything where you're dealing with the inside
of your body, even though these are external products, you
want them to be as clean as possible. Anything you
put on your skin, anything that you eat, drink as
a woman, any kind of menstrual products that you use,
or or feminine care products that you use, they should always,
always is, always be clean because those toxics are going

(28:02):
inside your body, right, and you just want to make sure.
I'm gonna ask you a question. This is gonna sound
a little crazy, right. You know, there's certain products that
is better for black skin and white skin, or as
your products better for black vaginas. No, no, no, no,
I mean you you'd be surprised. I've pitched an investor
one time and he asked me, was this just a

(28:24):
black product? Um? The question. The answer to the question
is no all the time. All vaginas are typically have
to be within the same pH range to be healthy. UM.
You know, so absolutely not. Our products are for every vagina.
Even if you are a man who identifies as a woman,

(28:45):
or you know you don't identify with any gender and
you've gone through a change, it's for your vagina too,
So it's for any and every vagina. YEA, let's get
to the goddamn why are the white people hate and Beatrice?
I don't think they're hating or of I was listening
to Leon Thomas on my way in and I think,
you know, the creator has a master plan and I

(29:07):
think that, and I think that, and I think that
UM fit like this happens because it's supposed to happen. Yeah,
because because a lot of us would never have heard
of the Honeypot. People that don't know a lot of
people don't know what. So basically we have the opportunity,
UM gratitude to Target to shoot a commercial with Target

(29:27):
where they highlighted our brand UM. At the end of
the commercial, I said that I wanted to be that
Honeypot has to be successful so that other UM brown
girls or black girls that are coming up behind us
or with us or around us, you know, so that
they can be successful, correct, right, And when I said that,

(29:51):
activated yeah, yeah yeah. But but when I but when
I said that, my reasoning for saying that is because
of the disparities that are happening in the venture capital world. Right,
we get one percent of funding, which we get less
than one percent we get we get we get point
zero six percent of funding. I'm one of the fifty

(30:13):
women fifty only fifty black women that have raised more
than a million dollars. Wow, in the dollar amount that
we're talking about of the share. This was back in
twenty eighteen. If you look at the Project Diane report
was um came from four hundred and twenty five billion dollars.
So point zero six percent of four hundred and twenty
five billion dollars that was that was put out in

(30:35):
the venture capital world. That's not even a chrome. That's like,
you see what I'm saying. That's why it's important for
you to succeed. For brown girls to see, yes, I
can't start a company, and for these venture capitalists to see, yes,
a company can be successful, and that's where I want
to invest my money. Well, venture capital is business right,
it's it's this isn't personal, it's business. If there's not

(30:58):
enough black women led businesses going to acquisition scaling their businesses,
you know, Richel Lou Dennis, you know and with sund out,
how often do you see that happen in our community?
So yeah, yeah, we're we're a part of the New
Voice is fun. But the point is, and that's a part.

(31:19):
That's one of the reasons why Richel lu created the
New Voice is fun, because this is the disparity. If
we do not if we are not selling businesses, if
we are not scaling businesses, black wealth can literally die,
right and so you know, so that's the reason why
we have to be successful because we're a comp right, right,

(31:42):
If you're gonna if you buy a house or you
sell your house, you're going to look at the comps
in the neighborhood. That's how this works, right right. So
if so if we're so, if yeah, but you see
what I'm saying. If if you're not, if you're not,
if we're not successful, then the comps aren't there. Then
venture Cap it was like, well, I'm not necessarily seeing
brown girls selling a business for over one hundred million dollars.

(32:04):
You understand what I'm saying, So why should I put
my money in That's that's why people put money in
there in your business. If they give you a dollar,
they want back ten, they want back one hundred, one thousand.
That's how this works. So you said that in the commercial,
and then what happened. We've been inundated with not inundated,
but a little bit with with emails. We've been inundated
with UM social media posts that bad reviews, but not

(32:28):
on product. On that one statement, they said you were racist.
They said that I was racist, and you know, and
I guess what, that's their opinion. They can think what
they want to think. They can I know, I'm not racist.
Try to get talking and pull your stuff off the shelves.
I'm sure that some of them asked for that. I'm
they called for basically for their people not to not

(32:49):
to buy in and support it. UM and then our
you know, we didn't even really have to say much
because our customers they formed like Vultron and just got
in there, you know. And so not only did they
did they reverse like a one and a half or
two and a half star on Trust Pilot, but it
went to like four point nine stars. Um, you know

(33:12):
the shelves have just been you know, ravished, and and
you know, and and everything's popping online and everywhere else.
So you can't let like this bring you down. You
turn it into you turn you because it is a blessed.
Is you can turn anything that feels at the time
like it might be a misfortune into a blessing. Yeah,

(33:34):
how can people find your products? If they want to
find your products they want to support, where are your
products that they can find and support? The best thing
I'll tell you, because we're in a lot of retail, UM,
go to our website, which is the Honeypot dot coo.
If you want to buy it online, you can buy
it there. If you don't want to buy it online,
you want to go to a store, go to the
store locator, put in your zip code. It's gonna tell you.
But we're in Target, Walmart, Walgreens, Whole Foods, CVS, FED

(33:59):
Bathroom be on. We're not in all of those doors.
Urban outfit like we're in Urban outfit is we may
we may, we may be in that banner, but we not.
We may not be in all the doors. So you
want to exactly so you want to make sure that
you go to the website, go to the store locator.
You can find us on social media at the Honeypot
co um. You can find me on social media. I
am B Dixon, B E A D I x O M.

(34:22):
And I love your attitude on all of this because
I feel the same way in life. There's no good
or bad experiences. It's just one long process. Everything, everything
is part of a bigger designe plan. Yeah. The only
the only place is here and the only time is now.
There you go, holy right, So that's a tweet later
you know, the only place is here and the only

(34:47):
time is now. This is this is all, This is
all you got right. Well, we appreciate you for joining
us this morning. Thank you for having us, and thank
you everybody, please, thank you so much. All right, well,
thank you Beatrice Dixon for joining in us. All right,
that's your front page news. Now when we come back,
the cast of State of the Coach will be joining us.
That's Ebney K. Williams, Jinks, Remy mat and Joe Button.

(35:10):
So keeping locked us to Breakfast Club The Morning The
Breakfast Club, DJ mvy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the Guy we
are the breakfast club. We got some special guests in
the building from the state of the culture. We have jinks, ebony,
Joe buttons. Don't read. Don't read our Joe button. That's
how welcome, guys. I've gotten better. I hate when you

(35:39):
do it by the way you hate everything I do. Though. Yeah,
we don't y'all feel about each other because y'all hate
each other. But y'all love each other. Hates everything that
I why do you like? But he loves me? Right,
We're like the first cousins that are in competition with
each other while being raised, while growing up. That's what
we are. We're not in Professor X and this. We
are shut up. We are gonna lie drop offline off, this,

(36:03):
winning each other. Yes, we're supposed to do lunch. I
think that Charlemagne and I are pounderful enough to do
a lot of things together. Black lunch, the competition friendly
amongst us. But in the grand scheme of things, I
think a simple coffee date between him and I. That's

(36:24):
that I can't gearge people. I feel like that sounds crazy.
All right, Well, get your smoothie or whatever the joe.
Getn't wait too much money he was coffee. They got
a leather pants today, he's got several for Dora's Joe
to see father my lady, huge fan? What fan of Joe? Yeah,

(36:48):
that's all. That's all. I woke up one to give
him a little something. Growth is good, Joe, I think so, yes,
I respect it. Evan, he gets Charlomagne like you said
you was get him. Well you said you hit him
up offline. So we were saying just before we started taping,
so before we started taping last week's episode, just for

(37:08):
I were talking and it was like, you know, this
is so this has gotten so good, at least in
my opinion, like the vibe of us as a cast,
the just whole way we were meshing and jelly, it
feels really good. I was like, I can't wait till
we go. I'm Breakfast Club next week. And here where
Shard thinks because when it was announced, so I was y, yeah,
ok y, it was announced that I was that's what

(37:38):
thinks um, that I was going to be the new
co host. I'll say it the culture. He expressed skepticism.
I didn't like it, really yeah, I didn't like it.
I didn't think I didn't think it was me, why
didn't you like it? Shark? Why not? I don't know.
I didn't think, what do you think now? I think
it's I thought we were too good over her. No,
not at all. I didn't just think it would mention.

(37:59):
I like it now. Actually, I think it's a good
fit and in a I don't want to say it weird.
It's not a weird dynamic. I didn't expect inventional Yeah,
I didn't expect you to be able to swim in
those waters. So right, It wasn't y'all he was questioning.
It was me. I know that sounds like us. No,
it's been points where you see the little tension, but

(38:20):
it's not bad tension. It's just a difference of opinion
rem and ebany sometimes slightly really really really really, it
was just a six nine. It was just it was
not the six non topic. It was the snitch topic.
But I'm understand both perspective. Both perspectives were from the
lives and the experiences that you'll both now. Yeah, but

(38:42):
you gotta be careful when you say things like that
because a lot of people since since she's been on
the show, I see and um, just across social media
where people feel like, you know, we have she has
a problem with me, or I have a problem with her.
It's another pretty girl, so remins intimidated or she's you know,
and then the other people's like all now, like skinning
was on this ram, gotta be conserving the first one.
She's not even really that light skinned. That's no. But

(39:09):
the funniest part of that room was um they said
that I um vive to the seats like yeah. The
people they did, No, they did, They were like, yo,
she's straight on vivim VI the seat on the show.
And you can't say they don't women against each other
when you see things happening, because you know what you
keep up saying, look at Jackson, Joe, they don't like it,
like you don't see that bird people or women that

(39:30):
do that. No, No, people against each other in that scenario.
I'm always worried about Joe. Joe's always the wild card.
Is the wild card, you know, because he's Joe. You
don't know him. What do I say to you? Yeah,
you did just say it to you. What do you say? Well?
In that conversation, at Ebaney mentioned when when she said

(39:53):
what she said as a Charlemagne expresses skepticism towards all
of mine ventures because of you. Whenever. Ever, then struggles
started and I was right, you were wrong. I was
that right. But were you right about saying on this show, No,
you said Joe would implode. Be clear, Let's be careful

(40:14):
with narratives. That was not Joe imploding. That is what
will be looked at. Is arguably the biggest business blunder
this decade by complex. That wasn't Joe imploding. So the
show ended. Oh sorry, the show still going on, and
the show is still I love, I Love, I Love,

(40:39):
I Love, I Love. I appreciate the fact that that
show is still on. But it's different, It's different different.
It's like it's like Race's reply to Loupe replacing me
in Slaughter. It would be a different entity. I think
he said it because you know, you started off doing
the Morning and you left. Then you are doing morning

(41:01):
when me and you when we did mornings. Then the
rap when I when I went to bat for DJ Envy,
behind the scenes, you did talk about it. Everybody goes
to everything bad rapper Joe Joe. But I don't think
Envy expresses that enough on his daily show. Yes, he

(41:21):
was absolutely he said, was or was exactly? They started
learning past anything I do. I called Joe when I
started doing the houses? Did I call you? Call? Said
tell me the house? Because I was like, I'm doing
I think you can make some money trying to get

(41:42):
looked out and out. When I need a scam, you're
gonna go to jail. That's left from that. But Envy
looked out when I needed a nanny. Envy has looked
out women struck in relationship advice like Envy. No, when
they were doing morning they needed a new radio show,
morning show at ninety seven back in the day. It
was they were going through transition and they wanted to

(42:03):
hire Joe. So Joe said, Okay, I'll do it, but
only if I could bring Envy with me. They didn't
want me, but he brought me. Anyway, You didn't ever
tell us that. Why did you believe in VA in
that way? I don't even hear the gratitude and voice
what you just saying to Cavalier, What did you pick
Envy out of everyone because he's light skin deserved a shot.

(42:28):
Envy deserved Actually that's not true, Okay, I mean you
haven't proven to us otherwise, whoa I can show you
my phone right now, please. Okay, that's what we're saying.
So that's what happened. So they hired Joe, and Joe
brought me along and we did the show and then

(42:49):
Envy needed a shot man, right, Envy needed a shot.
Envy had earned the shot and in my eyes, and
if you were going to do something unconventional, which is
what it was at the time, then let's make it
all the way unconventional. I think we brought an Ashy
Larry at one point, who they hated. They hated it.
They hated that because it's like Ashy Larry gonna get
on the NBA. But he did and it was hilarious.

(43:09):
That smack fit unconventional, right. Just we did a lot
of things that you shouldn't have done. This is before
the FCC. Is that what it is? Ye? This before
the FCC. Crack dawn crazy. But what you do with
VA is what should happen in the culture if you
really care about the culture. That's true, all right, we
got more with the cast or state of the culture.
When we come back, don't move. It's to breakfast club,
Good morning morning, everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee Charlemagne

(43:34):
the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking
it with the cast and state of the Coulture, Ebony K. Williams, Jinks,
Joe Button, and Remy Mall. Ye all right, can I
throw of some topics and see you guys thoughts? Yeah,
all right, Meg the Stallion right now with her label deal, yes,
right where she's saying that she wants to renegotiate her contract.
So as artists, as an attorney, as somebody who studies

(43:55):
all of this in the business, what are your thoughts
on who's writing who's wrong here? Carl Crawford in his
label would make the Stallion saying she's signed this when
she was only twenty years old. She's only getting forty
percent of the money she has to pay her engineers,
her producers, everybody else, and they get all her touring
money and everything before she sees it. I'll start, um,
I think no, because I really I find it fascinating. Ye.

(44:17):
I think the case is really fascinating because like to
the letter of the law, the record company is right,
like we're in the law. It's called the four corners doctrine,
which means the four corners on the page what's on
the paper controls, So according to that language, it is
what it is. It's just a terrible deal. But I
think I think Meg had a victory in court where
the judge basically said that they're not going to be

(44:37):
able to hold her back from release in music, and
that they cannot temporary temporary restraining order, that's correct, Joseph,
and that they cannot retaliate against our social media. So
I think there's also just a notion of fair dealing, right, Like,
that's just ultimately an underlying question, and I think as
we see this play out with Meg, it's the first
of all artists are in powered and I really want
our artists to speak to this in a minute in

(44:58):
a new way. It used to be that the record
companies held all the cards, all the power, and the
artists were pretty much silenced and had to just submit
to poor terms. The smartest thing NEG did was to
the Instagram video, because like, you gotta tell it, because
once you tell it and you get a public narrative
on your side, it can bring the company to their knees.

(45:20):
Contract For a long time, though, there's been so many
artists to talk about bad contracts getting out to the
fact though all the time, Yes, I feel like a
lot of it a tack. I feel like two twenties
should not be getting jerk. I think it's too much
information out there. Joe, you signed a contract. I know
you want to get out at one time, didn't you?
When you bring it up, I don't talk about. Sorry,

(45:43):
five six contracts in my career that I wanted, every
contract that I signed when to get out of in
my career, they were all bad. And I mean evany
talks about how bad that contracts sounded that you read about,
but to me, that sounds like standard. Yeah. And because
I'm an artist, you know, I'm not on the I

(46:05):
don't know what's right or wrong here. I know traditionally
in this business you have to amend your mistakes or
artists go through it. That contract is a mistake on
the behalf of Meg the Stallion. On Carl Crawford's side,
you're a brand new artist. You have yet to release
your debut album. Who the fuck are you to want

(46:25):
to amend a thing right now now at some point
in the future because we're friends, we have a relationship,
or you know, I went through this where I was
I called web one day and said, Yo, I want
to amend some She said, Joe, why would I do that?
I think about I couldn't answer it. But there is
a reason that Meg signed it. We don't know what

(46:47):
that reason is. She clearly to poverty money at the time,
she wanted a chance, she wanted the opportunities. She thought
that was the way, and then when she I could
imagine a world where it was, the school was a
bit broader. And the argument, though, just so y'all know,
is that that's the rest, like at some point that
level of limited um sides of the equation, like what

(47:10):
he would potentially or she would potentially gain on the
record company side versus the very small relative other side
of the artists benefit. The argument legally is the contract
was entered into under a drest situation. I'm not saying
that's the case here would make the stallion, but that's
how we will play. That's the case. Every artist is
entered in under the dress. Most of them come from
impoverished ldhoods and from the bottom. I don't know too many.

(47:31):
I could a handful of arts that came in that
already came from a wealthy family or just in a
good state when they started. I feel that that that
argument would be could be made acrourse the board for
artists in general. But the issue is with I think
Envy said, we're at a point now where it's just
too much information out there. This argument has been going

(47:53):
on for ever. Bad deals, publishing rights percentages, things like
that where you shouldn't even be into. But also I
was thinking more so, she was twenty years old when
she signed it. Does that have any you know? I
mean I look at it too. It's like I'm not
a lawyer or artist, but I just I'm in the

(48:15):
everyday Joe right, and I'm watching everyone on social media
comment on her what she should have done, what she
shouldn't have done. But these are people that like press,
accept cookies and don't read the service, you know what
I mean talking about reading like you know what the
exactly right? And so it is every day Joe's weighing
on this situation while she's trying to speak her piece
and make it public. I feel like, let's watch it

(48:37):
play out. I do agree, like what you signed is
what you signed? Right? But no, no, no. The butte
is that everyone said she should have read, like y'all
don't read this is what we were doing on the show,
and closing. No closing suggest somebody even if it's something,
even if it's a bad deal, like app said, like,

(48:58):
because sometimes it's profitable to even take the bad deal
because it's better than what you have at the time.
Always try to keep the terms extremely short, as short
as possible. This way it's only one cycle or maybe
two or just two years or something like that. So
this way you're not trapped into something that's going on
and on for a long period of time. Now, Joe,
you went back on Love and Hip Hop? Why and

(49:18):
so they Remy? But Remy has been there for the
last couple of years. That's resting for clowns. Its defense,
I raised the steaks of the shell a little bit.
You know, it's not it's not just bad TV anymore.
You can actually be on Love and Hip Hop and
have just Me Grammy nominated and have hit records while

(49:41):
you're on there, So it's not just a graveyard any more.
And I'm pretty sure since his new found success and
all his other benches, his bag is way much better
than it was when he was on there before the
And it feels good when you got to go back
to somebody else and make them pay for all the
passions qussions. But I don't even telling you do you

(50:05):
look at you look like you can to me like this. Okay, So, hey,
did I told you when we did that pull up?
It ain't what you think? Did you see? You don't
want to see you pretending though, But it's not pretending
every time you see me. I'm just sitting here get
yelled about somebody. Yeah, I've not said anything. You've heard

(50:29):
my feeling toward anything. This is not the Joe story here. No,
So that was the reason the bag and you told
you you got a million got m I know. And
then you guys set up here. Oh yeah, believe that. Okay,
I love the pants. Yeah, I'm more shouted about why

(50:49):
Charlemagne doesn't believe that. And you're in the same business.
And I've seen Mona Scott Young's paychecks to people. But
part of what part of what I loved hold on,
let me dressed the golden child, let me let me
go and compromise my contract real quick. Part of what

(51:13):
Remy is trying to tell y'all is, you guys are
absolutely right. At one point that was a show with
with a different business model. Um, And I think at
some point Viacom realized that and it took some years,
but you could see the slow steps toward different implementation
U M. Hardy Um. It was rumors for years that

(51:35):
they were approaching Jim and uh Chrissy to come and
actually created the show on the on the low people
don't know that. I would argue that Joe created it.
I would argue, to me, when what are you talking
about now? Joe him and he used to do that
stuff in everything everything. Viacom to pitch the show with Mona,

(52:01):
I know, and I think that you could pitch my
ip to Mona. No no. But anyway, back to what
I was saying. Over the years, they've made some changes
of Remy's a big part of that. A few other
people were a big part of it. And I think
the finishing product that you see finished products you see

(52:21):
today on the screen. It's just very different and it's expensive.
Every show I watch, I'm counting everyone's checks. They've eliminated
all of the people who are paid in the bracket
that Charlomagne is speaking about. There is nobody on that
show that's cheap. This is an expensive show now all right,

(52:43):
we got more with the cast of State of the Culture.
When we come back, don't move. It's to Breakfast Club.
Good Morning Party is DJ Envy Angela Yee Charlomagne the
guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it
with the cast and state of the coach are Ebony
K Williams, Jinks, Joe Button and Remy Mall and Joe
how Lone when you May pump it Up and talked
about masturbation. I've been wrapping that song for years and

(53:04):
I didn't know it was about Queen masurbation. I just
want to know. Don't answer that. Where did that come from?
Our transition? Right, Like invis role in the show is
to transition to want to give you one your way
out right? What was what that was a hard transition

(53:29):
go to masturbation? Yeah, while we're in Salmon, they didn't
bring the legend of pump it Up Never dies. Like
sometimes when these stories come up, I'd be like, damn man,
why can't Tipsy and j Kuan like all of those

(53:50):
big records back then, Why can't they just keep doing this? Uh?
Please got to shut the up, man. Uh Jesus, why
would you drop the bottom line? To it. He got
kill out. I've told this story. I heard somebody else
has told this story. Listen. When I was twenty one
years old, twenty two years old, I had no idea

(54:10):
of how to create a record. I didn't know how
to make a song. I didn't know the construck. I
didn't know Yeah, I didn't know what beads and all
of it. So there were a lot of the pump
it up went through a lot of experimentation. That's a
good way to say that. In one part talking about
an eight bar verse, eight eight bar part in the

(54:31):
second verse in the pre recording stages, Uh, it was
my hand and the point of it was it was.
It wasn't about because it too hard for this. It
was my hand and the point of it wasn't It wasn't.
It wasn't out last week I used to because it

(54:52):
wasn't about mansturbation. It was just it was like justad
my jump off. It was my hand number. It was
not too much my hand, Knight hanging out with the
tellings no no, no, no, with a whole different it was.
It was different, like I erased the whole thing. It
was much worse than that. So this is a period
of time when you were masturbating a lot, and then
you put it in the song I still have to

(55:13):
be a lot, Okay, thing the only fans lead, y'all
see the only fans league, the only fans you have,
the only fans account. No, yoo man, y'all too corporate.
Now you're getting too much money. Only fans. All the
beautiful girls that you're doing, only fans and do whatever
they got to be. I know what. Hackers hacked it,
so you masturbate the only way you tell us. No,

(55:34):
I'm telling you that there were plenty of hackers. Okay,
because I talk this whole time. I thought you were
saying you had an only fans account of you masturbating.
We understand what you thought. Okay, So I have a
question for you guys. What do you guys think You

(55:54):
guys all watched the show. I hope I know Charlotte
means does MV doesn't want to take me as the
one that is he like selling houses with weird, cheap
people getting here selling houses with big punt. It's done wrong.
That's what sacked Watch it. But what do you like?

(56:16):
We're juggling with the idea. We feel like we need
a studio audience, so we would like studio audience, like
for someone who has a show where you guys sit here,
y'all are in y'all a little cozy space in our room,
Like what do you what do you think about the
whole deal? I don't know if y'all need a studio audience,
only because I care about you'all opinions. And I think
sometimes with studio audience, people start performing for the crowd

(56:38):
as opposed to having conversations. You think we can you
think we care about what any Well, maybe I don't know.
I might you know, I'm like, yeah, might we might
get a little too crazy. How did this show start?
How did it like? How did it come about? How
did this show come about? You calling me and saying, Puff, Puff,
want to talk to you. I just want you to

(56:58):
tell that story. Gonna pay me hat like but wait,
I started to shoot by expression the event a maounance
support that we showed for each other behind the scenes.

(57:18):
You know, that's that's true. I was. I was really
appreciative for that call um and I got with Puff
and I didn't know the process would be so long,
but it took. It took a while and that perfection
it's like for real. But once we got it going,
you know, it contradicted everything that I had ever heard
about Revolt prior to me being there. Well, i'd always

(57:39):
heard about We're not gonna say too much, but one
of the classic things in the street was well actually
similar similar to what Charlottagne expressed about loving hip hop.
You know, your revolte might not pay you and experienced that, like,
uh maybe heard they might not be invested. Now they're

(58:00):
super invested. They go all they go all the way there. Uh,
that's part of the thing. That's one of the things
that makes going to work feel so good. Not only
is the panel amazing, everybody behind the scenes is amazing.
Why did it turn in the photo? Because originally I
wanted I wanted Joe the Act to go to Revolt
and do that. Black didn't want to go. Okay, I

(58:21):
thought he's gonna be No, I didn't want to go.
He was scared. Yeah, you know he wants How do
you think that panned out? In fact, I think it's fine.
Fact I think him and Wain, I think him and
way to make a better pair than you acted because
you are so overpowered that's not really a question. I'm
ask him, do you do you think that his decision
to stay long term in that company has diminished what

(58:44):
he was doing independently? No, because he's still doing it
and it worked out for him at Revolt. Who knows?
You never know? No acting the game now you got
with Steve. Oh, that was the question. How did we
end up h at four and puff fighting? Fighting for most?
You want it for? You didn't want four? You wanted

(59:05):
to The original idea was two me and another person,
and I didn't like that. I was a woman who
was the other person. No one point the banks for
a second. We were gonna do that. We're gonna do
your banks. We're gonna do it, zail your banks. In theory.

(59:26):
What an amazing idea. Um, but that's what I wanted
to create something with, you would say, um. And that
didn't pan out for whatever reason. Uh. So then we said,
all right, we need three, we need three. Uh. And
then when we were screen testing the three was that
really not supposed to be on this show? And then

(59:55):
and the screen testing, uh, and the screen testing you
know you could tell that you could tell you need
it for and that'd that'd be the important part sometimes
with hitting companies to understand chemistry because you can't see it. Um,
but puff is a creative screen testing. They realized that
m is just like Joe. She just has a wig on.

(01:00:17):
That's all. That's what happened. So it's like we need
four because I still wanted. I wanted a woman dynamic,
blunt like the qualities I was looking for, and rim
was already in the in our wheelhouse. But it hit

(01:00:37):
me after that was like, wait a minute, how can
we convince remy to give this a shot? Light to
her that this was gonna be about one thing she's
there to repair that She was shocked that she gets
out of time. Said I love us so much. I

(01:01:06):
actually love going to work, like like Joe said, I'm sing,
I love it, like yeah, that's but listen behind door numbers,
just hind door number two. I'm hoping that we are
so amazing and we make it so great that I
can read short terms that I made sure that was

(01:01:29):
in there. But um yeah, all right, Well, thank you
guys for joining us. Thank you guys. Hey, I don't
want to hey, thank you for having us. I want y'all,
I want to thank y'all for y'all service and tenure
in this culture. It's been a long time, and I
don't know if people give you guys your flowers the

(01:01:50):
way they need to at the end of these things.
A lot of classic moments we've gotten from you, guys.
Thank y'all, Thank you all right, well, thank you guys.
It's the breakfast wanting. Everybody is DJ mvy angela Ye,
Charlemagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. Let's get
to the rumas. Let's talk to Nashe. Listen, it's just

(01:02:15):
it's report breakfast Club. Well to Nashe sat down and
did an interview on the Ease digital series just to Sip,
and she was talking about how she feels like she
was pitted against other black women in the industry. Who
did they try to pit you against every black girl?
First it was like the Superstars, which was like whoa
and honor, But like, how are you guys going to

(01:02:37):
hit me against these people? Like it would be like
to Nashe the new Aliyah, to Nashe the next Beyonce.
I would be like, you guys are setting me up.
These people are icons. Then it was everyone it's to
Nashe versus Janet FK Twigs, literally any black girl, Cassie
all the whisper singers school me because I'm old. I

(01:02:59):
don't remem any of that. I remember. I was thinking
she probably paid a lot more attention to it than
you guys did because it was about her. I don't
remember any of that. I don't remember to Nacia being
compared to Beyonce Aliyah, I don't remember any of that.
I don't know if it's really a comparison. But when
people mention your name, like is she going to be
the next this or the next that? That all the time.
I no, No, that's not not to Nash. I just

(01:03:22):
never heard anybody make those comparisons. Right, Like I said,
she probably heard it a lot because it's about her.
So you hear those things when people are talking about
you and you are the person they're talking about. You
got to make sure if not your friends today had
that around you too. Now, all right now, Alicia Keys
is going on a book tour and support of her
men More and More Myself a journey. That book will
be on sale March thirty first, and she's doing an

(01:03:42):
intimate forest city tour. It's gonna kick off in Brooklyn
at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on the day of
the book's release, So she'd be interesting to read. Nope,
it's gonna detail her struggle with heartache, her challenging and
complex relationship with her father, her people, pleasing nature, the
loss of privacy, and the oppressive expectations of female perfection.

(01:04:05):
Some of what she put on herself wouldn't come up
here either. Key way too classy for this show. What
do you mean? All right? Nick Cannon? And then she
scratches her words. What do you mean when she thinks
fire me? Now? Now I understand why she's not coming
a bit. I Cannon recently did an interview and he
was asked about an update on the beef between M

(01:04:27):
and M and date. Yes, what helped the bet between
him and fifty cent? And here's what I've been waiting
on this update. I didn't start it. He came at me.
I just swing heavy. All They thought you were gonna
stay quiet though, And that's the thing, and everybody's like,
oh you bet not say nothing about why not? An'tbody's
getting it. Ain't nobody's getting fifty either. Like we just thought, like,

(01:04:47):
let's go so you know, I match energy. So I mean, however,
they want to see it, but I think I think
it might have got a little too too intense for them.
So um, he's still welcome on the show and everybody
get I didn't know I needed an update on the
Nick Cannon M and m B foot after hearing it,
I'm sure I didn't need two intense guys. Stop it

(01:05:08):
too intense. He's got too intense foot of Okay and
Tona got compared to Beyonce. They too own world is cool.
Nicki Minaj's husband. Unfortunate situation for him. He was arrested.
He is out on bill. He turned himself into the
marshals and planed not guilty in court yesterday. They said
he had to post a bond and he has to
deal with some some situations from before. He has to

(01:05:31):
wear an ankle monitor. He also has a curfew. He's
under a pre chol supervision. He has no passport. He
can travel only in southern California. He cannot use drugs,
marijuana or anything like this. And that's all because he
did not register as a sex offender like he was
supposed to in California's They said he was registered in
New York state, but had yet to register in Cali

(01:05:52):
like he was supposed to. So now he's out on
the twenty thousand dollars bond and he is facing up
to ten years. He was convicted for a first degree
rape in nineteen ninety five. He was sixteen at the time,
she was sixteen as well. He served almost four years
for that crime and after that been required to wear
to register as a sex offender. Over twenty is I

(01:06:13):
don't think you ever don't register, right, all right? So
he has another hearing schedule for March twenty third. What
they I know they used to put signs in people's
yards at one time. Did they ever do that? That
was always I've never seen a sign before. I just
thought it was online. I'll tell you what they do do.
If you have like experience or any of those credit
check things, they send you alerts when somebody moves in

(01:06:34):
your neighborhood that's a registered sex offender, to give you
the address, the name, the offense, and all of that.
That sign is crazy. That's worse than to be were
a dog. That's worse than adt like. You don't want
that in You're all right, I'm ANGI la yee, And
that is your rumor reports. All right, thank you, miss
ye Shula Mine. Yes, you give it that donkey you
you know I'm gonna be honest with you. Man. As
I even think about this donkey, donkey, I even think

(01:06:55):
about this donkey, I'm getting hungry. But there's a man
in Louisiana that we need to talk to hunderstand why
he did what he did. But it was dumb to do.
And that's what Donkey to Day is all about, giving
people to credit they deserved for being stupid. All right,
we'll get into that next and ask ye if he
need relationship advice to any type of advice, you can
call ye right now. Eight hundred five eight five one
oh five one is the breakfast club come morning time

(01:07:19):
for Donkey of the Day. I'm a democrat to being
Dunky of the Day. A little bit of a mix
like a do other day a new wife. Yeah, Donkey
to Day for Thursday in March fifth goes to a

(01:07:40):
Louisiana man named Clement Smiley Leeds Junior. He's forty nine
years old. Salute through Louisiana. Um. I love Louisiana for
a lot of different reasons. One of the main reasons
is because I am what you would call a trans
fat ass. I like to eat. I like feud. Okay.
I'm from most corner South Carolina, so that little country
diet is in me. I like see food. I like

(01:08:00):
shrimping grits. I like bolberry biscuits from both Jangles. I
like fried fish. Okay, I'm just trying to explain to
y'all how much I'll love food because I'm hungry right now.
If the goddamn in turned went for breakfast a couple
hours going, they're not back head. Okay. I'm saying all
that to say, Louisiana got some good ass food, all right.
The reason we love Popeye so much is because it's
the Louisiana kitchen, all right. Everybody in here has been

(01:08:22):
in Louisiana, and everybody in here knows how good Louisiana
cuisine is. All right, salute to everybody who listens to
us in Louisiana and Monroe on one hundred point one
to beat and Lafayette on Q ninety five and New
Orleans on Q ninety three, respectively dropped on the clues
bonds for all three of them. Okay, Louisiana, man, it's
something about your gumbo. There's something about y'all stuff catfish.

(01:08:45):
And we're not even gonna get into all the pole boys.
Ca'm painting this picture for you because even though I'm
giving Clement Leech Junior to credit, he deserves being stupid
this morning. I feel him especially right now because I'm
stopping all right. I get why he did what he did. Okay,
well what did he doing? Because Sharlie, you known got
his hungry and we want to know why. Well, let's
go to WWLTBS four for the report. Please. An opp

(01:09:05):
inmate had been on the run after escaping from the
jail on Lundi Gras, but his brief taste of freedom
came to an end at one of the worst places
in the city for a fugitive. In a city like
New Orleans where there's no shortage of restaurants, Clement Leech
couldn't have picked a worse one. We'd probably get like
maybe ten cops average in here a day. We give
him ten percent discount. Kayle Philistrat was working the counter

(01:09:28):
at Sammy's Delhi on a Legion Fields Tuesday afternoon. Probably
had two cops here, two cops there, but it took
just moments for US Marshals and Orleans Parish Sheriff's deputies
to show up in force. They were there to take
Leech into custody. The burglary suspect had been on the
run since he escaped his job at the Orleans Parish
Jail on Lundy Grass. They kind of just scooped them

(01:09:49):
and took him out, like he knew. I feel like
he just knew he was caught. He did in one
of a fight or anything. Phillistrat says the arrests didn't
phase anyone in the restaurant well being that at New Orleans,
nobody like was like, you know, surprised. Everyone just kind
of turned stared at the situation and then kept going
Offers at the restaurants say that even after Leech was
driven away, the people he was at the table with,

(01:10:11):
they had his food boxed up and left. Well, we're
gonna come back to that. I want to talk about
that last little part. Escaped convict walked, you know, walked
right into a restaurant where all the cops get a
ten percent discount. Bro Let me tell you something. I'm
mad at him, but I'm not mad at him. I
understand why he did what he did, because first thing
I did when I read the story was pull up
the menu. All right. They got a double damned oyster

(01:10:32):
oyster pull boy that is battered in deep fried at
this place called Sammy's. Okay. They got a soft shell
crab pull boy. Have y'all ever had a soft shell
crab pull boy, and it's described it's gorgeous, double battered
and deep fried. They got a seafood platter that is
described as having a little bit of everything, Okay, shrimp, oysters,
and fish. Do you know what a menu like that
would do to me? I'm so damn in decisive when

(01:10:54):
I go to restaurants, But that right there, when you
just put it in knights in plane, a little bit
of everything, that puts everything in a nice simble respect. Okay,
the seafood gumbo with a creole gumbo loaded with crab
ochre and shrimp. Look at God, white Man, tell him
Stephen love Hood, Clement, I get it, King, But bro,
you escaped from jail in New Orleans. Right if there

(01:11:14):
was ever a reason for a man to use dordash? Okay,
uber each all right, I looked it up. Sammy's does catering.
They would have bought the food to wherever you are.
If you are an escaped convict, you have to move
like an escaped convict. I don't know how an escaped
convict would move, because I've never been one, but common
sense would tell me two things. One get as far
away from the place I escaped from as possible, and two,

(01:11:36):
don't go eat somewhere. Cops get a ten percent discount
to eat. In fact, don't go anywhere to eat. You're
an escape convict. King, act like it now, In case
you missed it, I know what you're thinking, because I
was thinking the same thing. Did he get to eat? Okay?
Did he get to order? Let's go back to w
w L CBS four for the report please, in case
you missed it. After Leech was driven away, the people

(01:11:57):
he was at the table with they had his food
boxed up. I left. I don't see the problem, nick,
I don't need this way. He going round of applause
to the good folks at w w L c VS
four for asking the questions inquiring hungry ass minds like me.
One and now please give Clement Lynch Junior the sweet
sounds and the hamletones. Oh no, you are dogee, Oh

(01:12:20):
the da do gee, Oh the day? Ye why you
why ain't want to play? Guess what race it is? Today?
Too late now? Well, shout out to everybody in New

(01:12:43):
Orleans again one of my favorite places to eat, all
of our favorite restaurants, Morrows, Socios, we got chicken and shrimp,
all the places we love to go NEOs. Okay, guys,
all right, well, thank you for that donkey of the day.
Up to see what happened is we're waiting on breakfast,
I am because they are still getting backast. Let me
tell what happen, Tell them what happened now? Sure you
can't tell what happened time right now? Oh I don't

(01:13:05):
mention names. Okay, I'm listening. Somebody bought us breakfast this morning,
right right, so we ordered from someplace goods right and
then taking so goddamn long. Oh my goodness. All right,
ask you is next? You got questions for ye calling now?
It's the breakfast Club co morning? What what? What? What
you wanna know? Baby mama issues sneaking some words of wisdom?
Call up now for asking eight hundred five eight five

(01:13:27):
one oh five one Breakfast Club. Need relationship advice, need
personal advice. Just need real advice. Call up now for
ask Ye Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
the guy. We are the breakfast club. It's time for

(01:13:48):
ask Ye. What a long? You want to go to you? Nine? Eight? Hello?
Who's this? Hello? Hey? What's what's up? Bro? I was
calling for some relationship advice for me and Ye. Okay,
I'm ready. I'm a New York City police officer for
the past eleven years now. I've been having some issues
with the police department and you know, the way it
works and the way they deal with the community, and

(01:14:09):
I've been feeling like i wanted to do something about it.
I've been passionate about this uh you know, hip hop thing.
I was going to leave the department to pursue this
music career. My lady said she loved the music, but
when it's time for me to make that move, she
don't want to support that move, you know. And I
feel like, if you support the music and you support me,

(01:14:31):
you support you should support the dream. But what about financially?
Are you able to take care of yourself or do
you need her financial support as well? No, I'm able
to take care of myself and my kids. Okay, all right,
So the problem is that she's not fully on board
with your plan, even though she says you have good
music and she supports you as a person. Correct. You know,
everybody that hears the music, you know, they support it.

(01:14:53):
I think it's really dope and it can make a
big difference. You know, she might be concerned about you too.
Though she might be, but it might be that she's
concerned about you, you know, not thriving in the way
that you think you will when you leave the department.
And yeah, but some people believe in me and believe
in the art. Now I agree with you. There's a balance.

(01:15:13):
You know, you want to believe in somebody, you want
to support them, But at the same time, she might
be feeling like, well, I don't know if that's a
smart decision for him to make. So that doesn't necessarily
mean that she's not supportive. Let's hear something we want
to hear you, Rodney. All right, this is quotas. This
is the whole issue I have with the department In
the first place. They say it's no quotas. I said,

(01:15:35):
that's a whole load of bulls. The quota isn'tfused in
the culture of the police department. They're trying to weaponize
poverty and I'm trying to disarm it. And the raiders alarming.
They tell you one thing when you train, just to
mess up your brain. Even though the language have changed,
the content the thing they're saying, it don't matter if
you write the summers or not. But when you walk
into preaching, they're like, how the summers as you've got?
And if the answer is a lot, then they give

(01:15:56):
your props because to them, that's the definition of a
good cop. The answer with none. I feel bad for you, son.
They're gonna make you whish you gave back that back
in that gun. I think it's an open window tactic.
It opened the window for them to get bro. You
need to be stopped in frist Man. You need to
be stopped in frist one second. First of all, a

(01:16:17):
couple of things here. Why can't why do you have
to quit the department in order to do what you
want to do? Why can't you put that out? And
why can't you make a change from within? He can't
put that out of me, can't put that out? And still,
you know, be a part of the department, and I
feel like, if I'm really gonna change, I gotta take
away to restraint, you know what I'm saying. No, you

(01:16:37):
can't have them in my financial future. No, we need people,
aren't There Ways you can implement some programs, some community
programs that will have better relationships. That they don't give
you that kind of that kind of authority, that kind
of you know, really make that change. They don't give
you that kind of avenue, you know. And if I

(01:17:00):
feel like, if I really want to make that change,
and I believe in my art, you know, I want
to take I want to take that step. Man. What
are they putting in the Popeyes Chicken sandwich? Black people
so backwards? Let me ask you one last, one last question.
This is crazy you think that people will want to
buy music. Is it all your music about police officers

(01:17:22):
and how they mistreat people or is that really the
focus of it? Yeah, it's about the message. I will
my Black lives matter, sweated to work every day against
copular opinion. You know, there's a lot of us that
support the movement. Is not just you know, you're not
just all Ronnie. I think it's commendable that you are

(01:17:46):
working on the inside and want to make some changes.
I don't know if this is necessarily what's going to
do it. It won't change it, ye, him quitting the
police thought to be a rapper won't change anything. But
being as hard you can stop energy and if I
believe it. But I would say this because this is
also a relationship question. I don't think that your woman

(01:18:07):
is not supportive of you and doesn't love you. She
just thinks maybe that this isn't realistic for you right now.
You don't give a pension for a dream. A rap
dream might have some big players. Man. Yeah, Ronnie, maybe
you could do some music under a fake name. What
your mother said when you want to do radio? Nah? Nah,
you know I don't want to. I don't want to
have that who I am all the time. I guess

(01:18:30):
I am. All I'm simply saying is if I got pulled,
If I got pulled over by you and another officer
and a white officer was being aggressive with me, I
feel like you would intervene and tell him to relax.
Maybe it's not in his heart anymore. He might might
want to be an officer, and that's a whole Another
thing is maybe you don't want to be an officer
anymore of us in the police force. Stop you, right,
But if he doesn't want to do it anymore, it's

(01:18:51):
not in his heart. You can't falsome. He has to
be happy at the end of the day. But I
would say this, don't don't quit to be a rapper.
Quit because you hate your job, and that's not what
you want to do your heart. It's not about hating
my job. It's not about hating my job. It's about
being effective and changed. I don't feel like I can
be effective and changed with my job. King. You're a cops.

(01:19:11):
You can change things from within. But you want to
quit being a cop to wrap about cricket cops? You
think that's gonna bring change? I absolutely do. Y'all got
y'all got to stop eating that pop Eyes chicken sandwich.
The streets ain't been the same since that Popeyes chickens
been on the streets. Good black people ain't never been
wrapped two type, but now just ridiculous. Rodney, Thanks for
being a great police officer though, and being somebody that
can see what's going on inside the department that's crooked

(01:19:33):
and speaking out on it. If he was a bird
you'd be flying nor for the winner. I prepare. I
appreciate y'all for giving a voice to the voiceless. And
you know, I'm gonna keep going with my music thing
and hopefully it reached the ends that it needs to reach.
You don't have to walk into a doctor's office and
ask for your foreskin back? Do you just backwards? Make

(01:19:55):
no sense? If he's not happy being a police officer,
he said he doesn't hate his job. He just don't
like the things that go on that he sees, and
that's why we need more people like that on the
police force. You can make change from within, correct. I
mean if he if he hates it, then that's something different.
But if he still enjoys it, then then yeah, I
feel like that. I feel like just put the music
out in your uniform and everything might to write me
a little short film about this Guy's like a police

(01:20:18):
officer who quitted his job because he wanted to make
change in the police force. So he decided to become
a rapper and rapper about how crooked cops were asking
five five one oh five one. If you need advice,
calling now is the breakfast club? Good morning? Got me up?
I coma keep for real ways, what you get some
real advice with Angela Ye get's ask ye morning. Everybody

(01:20:42):
is DJ Envy and Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
are the breakfast club. We're in the middle of asking
ye now what you want to go to? Ye? All right,
we are going to line three. D. Hello, who's this? Hey?
This is D. I just told you that. What's your
question for? Ye? Okay? So question is what should you

(01:21:02):
do about if you have an XLT won't leave you alone?
And every time you go out together and you see him,
he like makes a situation and try to like come
you and whoever you're with. All right, So you must
live in a small town or something. Yes, I live
in Charleston. Four three. What's happening? Do you feel like
it's Do you feel like it's dangerous? Um, it's just

(01:21:22):
to the point like every time there's a situation, so
it's like I keep avoiding him, but then we run
into him. It's just always a problem. He has to
like do the most in front of everybody, Like, let's
do the most. What does he do? Like, for example,
a couple of weeks ago, he had a whole person
with him I had somebody with me. He comes up,
tries to start a fight with whoever I'm with and

(01:21:43):
reaches under my skirt and wraps my ass. What ye
oh girl, you need to get a restraining order. See,
I hate to get like the police involved, and like I,
he put his hands, he touched you. He embarrassed you
in front of people, and that is a violation. He
put his hand up your skirt and touch your ass.
He needs to know that it is not okay. You're right,

(01:22:04):
you gotta be serious about it. And let me tell
you something that restraining order. I know you said you
hate to get the police involved. Well, if he gets arrested,
that's on him because he shouldn't be touching, touching you.
He shouldn't be having any contact with you. What if
you're with somebody and if a fight does happen, then
that's probably what he wants. But well then he'll go
to jail, okay, and it'll be his fault automatically. So

(01:22:24):
I think a restraining order, Listen, I had to get
one once before. Nobody ever wants to put somebody in
jail when somebody's disrespectful to you, your space, who you're with,
I think you're gonna have to do that, and then
that's on him. If he gets arrested, that's on him.
That means he did the wrong thing. So it's all
up to him. Does he want to go to jail
or does he want to stay a free man. If
he wants to go to jail, he'll keep harassing you.
So in the future he thinks, like, I mean, I'm

(01:22:46):
avoiding him. I was like, oh, anyway, but at this point,
what should I do next time I see him? You
should not speak to him, and I think you should
seriously do this. That sounds like he's he deserves it. Honestly,
you can't. You gotta think more about yourself than the
other person. You're over here feeling bad at him. You
don't want anything to happen to him. He's not feeling
bad about anything he's doing to you. I mean, you're right,

(01:23:07):
I just keep trying to be the bigger person, which
I mean I am. This is still being a bigger person.
This is still being the bigger person. He violates you,
so you let him know that's not right. That can't happen.
And I'm not scared of you. You're right. I definitely
feel like I should take some wavele action. Yeah, don't
protect him. I really appreciate it. All right, good luck,
d Thank you so much. All right, have a good one.

(01:23:28):
Ask Ye eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.
If you need relationship advice to any type of advice,
you can call Ye. Now you got rumors on the way. Yes,
we'll be talking about ray J and Brandy. They were
on the talk, and of course they talked about Kim Kardashian,
but even more importantly, Rayja talks about trying to fix
his marriage. All Right, we'll get into that next. Keeping
locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club

(01:23:51):
is the Rumor Report with Angel and Ye. So both
ray J and Brandy were on the talk and they
discussed several different things. First of all, Kim Kardashian has
been accused of cultural appropriation on many different occasions, and
that's for wearing those corn row braids, amongst other things. Well,

(01:24:12):
here's what Brandy and Rayja had to say about that.
I don't think that she's guilty. I think, you know,
I definitely believe in that, but I don't think I
think it's reaching a little bit. I mean, it's great,
I love braids. Here's what I think, very very very
I just think that if you, if you, if you

(01:24:33):
paying homage to another culture about, you know, rocking the braids,
I think it's a compliment. Nice diplomatic answer, right, I mean, look,
people do love braids. You know. You just can't act
like you you can't act like you invented it. Yeah,
it is cultural appropriation, let's be clear. But I mean
she has the right to appropriate that culture. It's just braids,
It's just happy corrolls. I mean, because I think about
the black women wear blonde wigs and all of that

(01:24:54):
kind of straightened out blonde wigs. So I mean, what's
the difference. But there are black women who do have
straight here and blind here naturally as we say that.
But when you think blonde hair, it's associated with the
kids from y'all Coup's case. All right. So now ray
Jay also discusses his marriage, and here's what he has
to say about trying to save his marriage or princess love.

(01:25:15):
It's hot in the kitchen, you know. I watched a
little bit of the conversation we had, and it's just
I'm still bothered just where we are. But God is
working everything through. We're trying to address the situation, you
know what I'm saying, and try to become a solution
to the problem. Life isn't easy, but when you love somebody,
the ups and downs are fun. And I love my
wife and I just pray that things work out. And

(01:25:37):
I mean, I'm not even trying to sell y'all the show,
but I think you really should watch it because it's
something deep. You're out there right fight for your wife. Yeah. Well,
I do hope they work it out. They just had
another baby. I don't like seeing stuff like that playout
on TV, though, Like I feel like those conversation happened
in the house. I understand getting the check and getting
the money, but it just don't look right and don't
look well. They have a whole entire show just about
their relationship on the Zoo's network also, But I do understanding,

(01:26:00):
and then they explain after they fixed them, to tell
people what they did and how they talked their way
through it. But I'm with you, you know, I think
it's difficult to fix the situation when when the world
is watched. But you know, their whole relationship started on
television two pretty much. Yeah, so that's what they're kind
of used to in their relationship. Don't look real watching
two people argue about their marriage and full makeup stupid? Right?
They do not be having on full makeup. Yes he does,

(01:26:21):
all right now. Chrissy Teagan is talking about her breast
and plants and getting them when she was twenty years old.
She said, it was more for a swimsuit thing. I thought,
if I'm going to be posing later on my back,
I want them to be perky. But then you have
babies and they fill up with milk and deflate, and
now I am screwed. She also says that she said,
I think you're supposed to replace in plants every ten years,
but when you have kids, you think about the risks

(01:26:42):
of surgery, and I think this is not the way
I want to die in boob surgery. She also says
she used to weigh herself every morning, afternoon, and night.
She said she would know what the scale said after
every single meal. She did that for eight years, and
she had this one weight that she wanted to be at.
But after having her kids, she said it took her
a year to be comfortable with her new normal number.
So you know, she's always very honest and open about

(01:27:04):
things going on in her life. So we appreciate Chrissy
for that, and also has a great sense of humor.
She said, she had her armpit fat sucked out too.
Now you have like that little fat by your armpit.
I think a lot of women get that, like if
you wear something like a tank top and then there's
like a little bit of you know whatever, armpit fat.

(01:27:26):
She said, No, not your arms, it's right here. It
looked like a little vi giant at some time. Yea, right,
so she said it. It was a big secret when
she did it. At the time, she said, and then
I had two inches to my armpit, she said. But
now that fat is back, so she's got to go
get lipel suction again. Fat is back. But she said, look,

(01:27:47):
it was easy and made her feel better in dresses
and made her feel more confident. But she doesn't have
any regrets. Congratulations Chrissy. All right, little baby has donated
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars to its old high
school and created a scholarship. So that's dope. He went
to book A. T. Washington High School in Atlanta, and
the scholarship is named after his new album as well
My Turn, Dope, My Turn scholarship. All right, Rob Kardashian, people,

(01:28:11):
well people as in Black China was trying to say
that he's depressed and afraid to leave the house. Well,
he is saying that is not true. He told us weekly,
none of that is going down. He is not depressed,
he is not afraid to leave the house. And he
also said that she was carelessly playing with his handgun
at one point. And you know, all kinds of issues

(01:28:32):
between the two of them over custody of their daughter,
Dream But I hope they work that out. And speaking
of kids, Katy Perry is pregnant. She's expecting her first
child with her fiance, Orlando Bloom. So congratulations to her.
All right, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report.
All right, thank you, miss Yee, Revolte. We'll see you
guys tomorrow. Everybody else to People's Choice Mixes up next,

(01:28:53):
get your request in right now. It's the Breakfast Cloud,
Good morning Honing. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne.
We are the Breakfast Club. Now it's Women's History Month
and who we referent today? Easy? We are representing for
Gloria Stynhams. She's a feminist, a journalist, a political activist.
She was a columnist for a New York magazine and
co founder of Miss magazine MS magazine, and she was

(01:29:15):
she helped actually start the feminist moving back in the
late sixties and early seventies, and she was one person
that always talked about how black women are at the
center of feminism. All right, well, let's get into it.
It's Women's History Month and we're celebrating the most influential
women in history. Check out this phenomenal walk. How much?
How is the definition of feminism changed as far as

(01:29:38):
you see it from from the late sixties early seventies
to now. I don't think it's really changed, because it's
just the radical idea that women are full human beings.
But I think now we're much more likely to realize
how deep it goes, you know, to realize to be
really political for a moment. The controlling reproduction is the

(01:30:00):
step in every hierarchy and every totalitarian regime, and that
means controlling women's bodies, so you know, I mean, it
was true of the National Socialists as they were called
in Germany. It's true of groups here, and I don't
think we put that together. I mean, we thought that
women's issues were women's issues. We didn't understand the connections

(01:30:23):
to everything else. But how are men most helpful as
allies in a time like this? Well, I think it's
even more helpful to realize men's stake in it, you know,
because actually, if you look at the cause of male deaths,
speeding and violence, and you know, you add them all up,
the women's movement and the dissolution of gender roles means

(01:30:46):
that you would have about five more years of life
to live. This is not bad. Yeah, who else can
make that offer? And that was another phenomenal woman in history. Yes,
so shout out to Gloria Yes Dynham. I actually had
the pleasure of meeting her at a panel that I
did right before I saw the play that was based
on her life. They have a movie coming out about

(01:31:07):
her as well. And Gloria Steynham has said black women
have always been more feminist than white women. And by
the way, she is a white woman, can black women
show up for white women more too? When it comes
to feminism? They always go to the white feminist rallies.
I don't see that energy returned for the Sisters though.
All right, when we do that each and every day
for Women's History Month, when we come back positive notes
and don't move, it's to Breakfast Club morning. Everybody is

(01:31:31):
j Envy Angela Yee Cholomne the guy we all the
Breakfast Club now. Shout to State of the Culture for
joining us this morning. Evan K. Williams, Joe Button, Rimmy
more in Jinks, that's right, my friend of me, Joe Budden,
Joe Budden sway, I'll be thinking about him like he
really Joe thinks that me and him are competing. But
I just feel like it's enough out here for everybody.

(01:31:51):
That's just my personal opinion. And also Beatrice Dixon for
joining us as well. Yes, founder of honey Pots. Appreciate
her and you'd be, I'm sure right now you guys
are reading a lot of new stories about what's been
going on with her brand. All right, Well, Charloman, you
got a positive note. Yeah. Man, I'm old school, so
I still believe in God. So I just want to
tell everybody out there, man used to believe a lot

(01:32:12):
of people don't believe in God. No more. It's new school, different, Okay,
But I just want to tell everybody man, give God
your weakness and he'll give you his scrimth Okay, God
only pushed us through as much as we can handle,
so the people who struggle the most have been chosen
by God to be the strongest. Believe that. Believe that Playboy,
believe that. Believe that Breakfast Club. You don't finish your
young
