of royalty that can show mercy to the peasants in
his kingdom. Hello, who's this DD? Hey b D, good morning,
Good morning. I was just wondering how long does it

(02:54):
take when you're in a relationship to want to get engage,
especially if that's something a woman wants. You need to
stop asking personal question. That's what you need to stop doing. Okay,
stop a personal part I'm sorry that triggered me a
little bit. No, no, no, I'll tell you why I
triggered me a little bit, because I've been I've been
on my my wife for twenty four years, so we've
been together since the nineteen hundred and nineties. But we

(03:16):
I didn't uh and proposed to her until twenty thirteen.
Oh wow, I don't, don't, don't you? Oh wow? Nothing.
I mean, that's a lot, that's a long time, and
that's a very long time. Let me ask you a question,
how long have you been? How long have you been?
Have you been with your man or woman? Nine years?
Nine years? Is it serious? Y'all live in the same
house or kind of stupid questions? Attack together? Nine years?

(03:39):
You ask if she because it might not be serious,
same bed. No, you gotta make sure serious, because it
could be, you know, because you could be with somebody
for nine years, but it's not serious, maybe as long
as this day. But the fact that they're living with
each other, and that y'all in the same bed, y'all
y'all paying half a rent. I mean, I think it's
about time. I think it's about time. Now hot now.
I mean if I was in your situation and I

(03:59):
wanted to be you know, engaged and get married and
he's basically just, you know, just dead because he's comfortable,
I would withhold the poop poof man. Shut up, man,
I don't like I don't like what you're saying him
legs I would close them legs. I mean, you want
to get married right now? He's just you know, he's
just doing what he gotta do, and he's comfortable. He's
knocking it off. He's not. Every day has a married couple,

(04:21):
but he's just not married. Think about it like this,
He's be very important. Shut up your big cheek food.
How old are you man? I'm twenty eight. We've been
together since I was my fain. See what I'm saying.
They've been together since they was young. Get that man
a little bit more time. How much more time does
he need? They've been together fifteen years, they sleep fifty
and I'm not having a baby without being married. See,

(04:43):
and he wants a baby. That's right. You close them legs, Mama.
I don't think you should close yours. You should, you should.
You should tell him you want to be married. You
may not know you want to be married. Have you
told him that before? He knows? How does he know
if you haven't told him? Tell me how he knows
about it? Oh? Okay, so you've been very vocal. You
told him you want to get married. He wants a child,
he wants a baby. I'm sure he stayed y'all stay together,

(05:05):
You watch his clothes, you cook for him, and sometimes, hey,
he's just comfortable, but you close them legs, he gonna
be uncomfortable. I will say, I don't like what Intervy
is saying, but I understand what he's saying. You know,
at this point, you know he's he's leasing, but you
know there should be an option to buy. So you
have to tell him. You know, after a while, you
can't just continue to lease this. You's gonna purchase nothing.

(05:25):
So what they have worked for you? If your wife
did it? Oh oh uh yeah, see you know I'm
gonna put this thing on lock. That's right, you put that.
You put a little lock on. It can only be
with a ring. Yeah, okay. And because because there's other
things too, right, like you know, we had a child,
so you know when you got your daughter asking like

(05:47):
why y'all don't have the last name? At some point,
as a man, you're like, why don't we? Like what
am I waiting on? Like what's the problem here? You know?
So yeah, he needs to get it to get why
do that right? He needs to get it together, like, yes,
marriage is a beautiful thing. Get it off your chest.
It's the breakfast Luve of the morning. The breakfast Club's doll, Yo,

(06:15):
this is your time to get it off your chest,
whether you're mad or blessed. Eight five five one. We
want to hear from you on the breakfast club. Hello.
Who's this? Hey? How's it going? Man? This straight? So
man the time? A personal question and asenance kind of
regarding towards my daughter. You know, we recently just got
cut from a softball team out here in Conro and uh,

(06:36):
you know how to say, I feel like it's personal
and maybe maybe you got to tell me I'm right
or wrong. Um, you know, it's a new softball team,
and so I feel that I've been asking questions about
where's the money going and how things have gotten spent,
and you know, I'm just asking certain questions that I
feel like head organization isn't liking. Statistically, my daughter is
the third best player on the team, and yet we

(06:58):
just recently got cut. And not only that, they did
it insensitive right before it was like, you know, hey,
do we still attend like you know, what do I
do for my daughter? Damn? How does she feel about it?
So you're telling us your daughter got cut? You're thinking
because you were asking too many questions, and because of
your questions, you got your daughter cut you believe, Yeah,
for sure? Are you sure about that? Are your daughter

(07:19):
just not good? No? Bro? She uh man, she's saying
this in a sense. She's nine years old. Bro, she
she's you know, five foot three at nine years old?
And what a question? Are you asking? Where the money going? Yeah?
Do you think that I got my daughter cutter was
a personal issue? I mean, do you think that you know,
I should have just fell in line and been like
a sheet, you know. I feel like that's what it is.

(07:40):
That they don't want nobody to go against the grain.
And you know, it's not like I was pressuring them
about the questions. I was just say, hey, you know,
as a monthly courtesy, you know, we would like to see,
as parents and a coach, where's the money going. You're
paying for fills, you're paying for equipment. Like, just what's
going on? Not just not that I'm staying the pocketing
the money, but I'm just saying I'm not trying to

(08:01):
fund my team and their team, And I think that's
what's going on. So I'm trying to figure out, how
can they cut your daughter? If they you've been paying
for it. They're they're the head organization. Like they're they're
they're in charge of the team. So he was asking
the question, Charlemagne, They're saying, let's say it's a monthly.
So he was asking the questions before his daughter made

(08:21):
the team, and he was asking, we had already been
on the team. Oh, so this a new year. So
i'm and I'm on, and I'm a coach, I'm a
coaching staff. We're on the team. We've been on the
team since the very beginning. And you know, my daughter
is a competitive cheer leader, and you know, like you said,
we pay for these things. So I reserve the right

(08:42):
to talk to the coaches about any and everything I
want to. Okay, I don't give a damn. I will
I will, I will, I will talk to them. I
will tell them things I don't like. Uh, if my
daughter has complaints, me and my wife will go talk
to the coaches. We got a meeting schedule with the
coach soon, one of the coaches soon, by the way,
So uh, there's I don't see nothing wrong with what
you did, sir. Now I don't see nothing wrong with

(09:04):
what you did either. Um, you have the right, like
Charlomagne said, you pay so you have the right to
ask questions. Now, the fact that they cut your daughter, yeah,
it does seem like it's is they really don't want
you there because you're asking questions, meaning possibly they're doing
something wrong with the money and they don't want it
out there. But the great thing about softball and baseball,
in these sports, there's other teams. So I would look
to put my daughter on another team and then bust

(09:26):
that team's ass. I've had that happen with me before.
I'm serious my son. When Logan was growing up, my
town team at the time, kind Alan, I didn't like
the way they would treating Logan, so I put them
on another team in New York, Brick City, shout the
Brick City Lions and Brick City Lions. He did his
damn thing, and I was waiting for us to play
kind Alan again and bust his ass. And ever since

(09:46):
Logan left kind Alan, uh that that school left football
team has been horrible. So you know, if sometimes you
gotta leave, go to another school and do what you
gotta do. And I agree, I respect that answer, you know,
and honestly, you know, I a meeting with the coach.
And on top of that, the head coach is a
nineteen year old little girl, and I say, look broke
because she's nineteen, you know what I mean. And she's

(10:07):
never coached the team before. And I'm like, man, you've
got grown you got grown folks on the team, man,
and take it to Yeah, no, man, got a good man.
And every since everything, Man, I've been hoping and I've
been praying, man, and some things that kind of come through.
Last night, Man, I got a really good phone call.
I just didn't know. Maybe I read into too much.
You know what I'm saying. I'm the kind of guy
that you know were on the leave. So it's like,

(10:29):
is it just me or what's really going on? Take
it to a little team and God is great, Chick
fil A is good. God is great. And personally I
would have been asking the coach while my daughter got cut,
you gotta explain to me why my daughter got cut.
And that's right too, you asked that question as well.
Get it off your chest. It's the breakfast, legal Morning,
the breakfast club, the breakfast club. Your mornings will never

(10:53):
be the same morning. Everybody is DJ d Angela Ye Charlemagne,
the guy. We are breakfast club. We got a special
guest in the building, ice wear Vessel. What it dude? Brother?
How are you feeling? Man? You look good. Brother. If
you had a whole lot of new money, I just
looked like it as well. How you feeling, man, I'm

(11:15):
feeling good, bro, blessed everything well, kids, good, old lady good.
You know what I mean. That's taking one day at
a time. Brother. I'm glad you're up here because since
you signed with Quality Control, like we gotta get Vessel
back on the show. Yeah, I appreciate that too. Clearly
it was a very lucrative deal. Yeah, it was good.
It was a good We actually did a partnership fifty okay,
So you know that's why, you know, I appreciate that situation.

(11:38):
I appreciate Pe for, like, you know, letting me approach
it as a as a as a young boss. You
know what I'm saying. I'm making it just you know,
teaching me the business and showing me how everything working,
allowing me that opportunity to grow my company as well.
So we did a fifty fifty partnership. You know, I
did convince you the partner with you see Old that conversation,

(11:59):
like I convinced myself honestly, you know, me and Peep
and building for probably like a year and a half
straight without talking, no business, none of that. You know,
We've just been vibing and moving around and growing to
understand each other, you know, and learning each other mentally,
you know what I mean. And I just like how
bro Rock, I like how operate. I like how you think.

(12:20):
And you know he ain't he ain't no selfish due
like he won't. He won't youngest to really, you know,
get get everything out of that. You know, it's bigger
than just being an artist. You know, Pete gonna show
you how to really really turn up and think for
the long run and not just like a rapper at
that moment, you know. So I felt like it was
a perfect situation for me, which it was to me.

(12:41):
And I think I saw somewhere that you said take
Off Takeoff was the first person to embrace you as
an independent on literally man take Off back in like
two thousand and fifteen, take Off Cane in my restaurant
I had but a restaurant when I was a kid
and a car wash and dispenser. Takeoff was in Detroit,
he DM me like, Bro, I'm in your city. Let's
link tap in he put up at the restaurant, Bro,

(13:03):
and he just gave me a lot of game, like
a lot of motivation. I was fighting a fair case
at the time, and he told me like, Bro, like
just seeing everything you got going on and how you
moving and just knowing how you know, how young you
wiz right now. You know, Like, Bro, you keep doing
what you're doing, You're gonna be big. Bro. Stick to
the music, You're gonna be something when you get out,
you know. Promote my music and posting my music gave

(13:25):
me a verse all that. Like he was the first
ever real life Yeah, the first, and it came back
full circle. So I'm sure when you connected with QC,
I'm sure he was one of the first people to congratulate. Absolutely,
he definitely was. Even before we like locked the deal down.
He kind of heard about it. He like, Bro, that's
a good move. Bro, I'm proud of you. You know
what I mean. Keep doing your thing, and you know,

(13:46):
it's just it's just unfortunate situation like with take because
Bro really a solid dude, and you know, people say
that every time somebody passed, you know, but like heine,
he genuinely was that he was a good brother, like
a real good guy. He had his head on his shoulders.
And one thing about take off. He never tried to
be somebody or something that he wouldn't. He was always

(14:08):
himself from my understanding, you know, from how new him
and how I met him, you know what I mean.
So rest in peace honestly to extent. Yeah, but for
the most part, right now, it don't seem like it
don't seem like you know, we're living in a town
where everybody got something to prove, you know, everybody worried

(14:30):
about what the next person think about them. And right now,
to me, I think the black man biggest downfall as
they pride. It's the pride. Pride is the pride is
our number one down for you know, we let our
pride getting away, and every time I ever used my pride,
I feel right after that, you know, I learned that
the hard way. So you know, now with with with

(14:52):
the pride and the ego and throw the money in
the play, it's just it's just it's too much, bro,
And I think we gotta I don't think we I
don't think we're given ourselves the chance to grow. You know,
we're not letting ourselves elevate because we too focused on
worldly things. You know. I just learned recently learned that

(15:13):
man's number one cause of depression is environmental stress. Literally,
that's number one cause environmental stress, meaning everything that we
are around and everything that we surround ourselves around. You know.
So until we're able to kind of evaluate who and
what we got around us and change our our environment,
we're not going to allow ourselves to grow. How do

(15:34):
you think having your wife has actually helped you through
so many different things? Though having a great partner I
think is one of the most supportive things that you
can have. Absolutely, my wife played real like the biggest
part in my life. You know. It been you know,
women mature faster than us. And then so many times
where I thought like foolishly and childishly, and she checked me.

(15:55):
You know what I'm saying, Like, my wife is like
is my backbone. She is that same part that that
at times I don't have, you know, And I know
when I got married, God blessed me in a different way,
you know, because it gave me some type of foundation
to to far back on and something to stand on,
like you know, I say this all the time, like

(16:16):
the best, the best attribute a woman got is the intuition.
That's that other sense like a woman's intuition is. It's unbelievable.
You know, anytime my wife ever told me something, she
ain't never been wrong. And I learned a hard way
to to not ignore her, to not ignore her feelings,
to not ignore her thoughts and you know, and her

(16:37):
views on pretty much everything. You know. So without my wife,
I don't know where i'd be in And I genuinely
mean that, like she she's she's she's stood taught for
me a million times. And don't feel good speaking on
the intuition. Don't feel good when when she know you solid,
when she know you're doing what you're supposed to be doing.
But when they when we when we get off together,

(16:58):
they know that too, that they know that they feel amazing.
She knowed me. Sometimes I feel like she knowed me
more than I know myself. Lord all we got more
with ice wear vessel when we come back. It's the
breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast club. I'm wanting everybody
is DJ Envy, angel Ye, Charlomagne, the guy. We are
the breakfast Club was still kicking it with Icewear vessel Charlomagne.

(17:20):
I also ready, you manifested the QC deal. While I did,
I did, I did. I told that to We was
in the TV room. I told it to my little homie, Rello,
Free Relo. He about to come on a minute, and
we was watching a b BT Awards and I told him, like, bro,
you know what, when I get out, I'm signing with
I'm signing with QC. I like how buddy move. I
like how the rock on the outlooking in. It felt

(17:43):
like he let the artists do what they want to do,
and any rock where they come up with a plan
and he get behind that plan for them. I manifest
that I manifested everything in my life. I'm manifested my wife.
I told her mom when I was fourteen, I'm gonna
marry her daughter. We're gonna get I'm I know, a
real talk. I told my my wife mom that listen,
I'm gonna marry your daughter. I'm gonna become a millionaire.

(18:05):
I'm gonna bout her at home, and we're gonna have children.
And I did every last one of them. I married her,
brought her at home, and I had kids like her,
her mom, remember that, she remember that talking about it
all the time. It ain't even the sight. It's just
I'm big on manifestation. I know how serious it is,
how real it is, Like I literally do vision boards

(18:28):
like I believe in this stuff, like it's real, Like
it really worked. You know, you really gotta vision what
it is. You won't and you can't get it. It
worked like that. You know you gotta you just gotta,
you got. You gotta be a good person at the
end of the day too. You know, you gotta do
the right thing. You gotta treat people right. You gotta
conduct yourself right. You know, im properly. But you heard
the vision board. That's real. I really manifest everything I did.

(18:50):
I tell you this all the time. Man, These conversations
coming from you are so important. The love and your wife,
you know what I mean, letting people know your wife
is your backbone. The manifest Asian conversations, Me and you
have conversation. It's just about mental health and how important
it is to keep your mental health together. Like you
gotta keep having those conversations, man. And being an entrepreneur.
I think that's important too, you know, having run on
your own businesses. Yeah, I think encouraging people to do that,

(19:13):
no doubt. Yeah, I think that's important. I would. I
want to. I want a lot of more black men
to talk more about mental health. And you know, and bro,
it's not it's not I'm it's I'm front of the streets.
But I'm a street guy, ex street guy. I have
no problem with you know, speaking on mental health and
you know, manifestation at work. It's not lame. Bro, it's cool.

(19:36):
Y'all can do that. You know, be yourself like this
stuff really works. You know, you want to be successful,
you want to you want to be healthy, has some
type of loan jervy at whatever it is you do.
Change some of the ways and read and get some knowledge.
Ain't nothing wrong with that. I think. I think somewhere
down the line we made being smart uncool. You know,
I really feel like that, like the lame if he

(19:59):
got some type of sense, and that ain't the case.
You know what I'm saying, ain't how I go Like
the real street guys is the one who try to
do everything in the world to get away from being
like that. You know, you know, the guys that ain't
really streat you know, they do everything in the world
to try to be like that. They kind of got
it backwards, you know. It's it's just a little off,
you know. And as an artist in a rapper, I

(20:19):
feel like it's it's it's part of my responsibility, you
know what I'm saying, to be one hunting and let
people know how I really come immensely, how I think
I operate whatever, and then they could judge me however
they want to. You know, they don't know me, and
there go that part where you know, I don't It's
not my job to care with somebody else think about me,
you know what I'm saying. So yeah, I think that's

(20:41):
important for every artist to do that. And I know
for a fact, majority of successful people and successful artists
not saying that I'm successful. I'm just saying this period like,
everybody got some type of sense, you know, everybody, anybody
with some type of longevi, they got some sense, you know,
and it's it's okay to promote that, you know. We
gotta push that off. We gotta create a whole new agenda. Man,

(21:03):
We gotta save our people from it. Starts with accountability though. Absolutely.
That's why my favorite question to ask brothers. Now, Dad,
let's say, hey man, let me take more reading. Our accountability,
accountability without it out, I'm guilty of that time. Yeah,
all of us are nice web vesl With the breakfast club,
the breakfast club, your mornings will never be the same.
When it's time to get with someone special, the best

(21:25):
way to do it is with Magnum large size condoms.

The woman sitting next to you on the plane weighs
three hundred pounds. Not comfortable, uneasy, fairly comfortable, or completely comfortable. Um,

(24:00):
there's somebody on the other side of mean, yeah, I'm
probably gonna be uncomfortable to the plane's kind of small. Listen,
planes is not made for fat people. God bless him,
but ay, all of us have been in that situation
where we've been sitting in that seat and Tina Fapper
is on the plane. Was like, please Lord, no, please
Jesus no. Now your last one your dentist is HIV positive. Oh,
I'm completely uncomfortable. I'm not even yet now if I know,

(24:24):
I'm not going to that dinist anymore. Hey, at least
your honest. All right, I have no problem with the honesty. Okay,
thank you, mama. All right, the breakfast Club, Good morning,
the breakfast club for everybody is cej Envy and Louie Charlomagne,
the guy. We are the breakfast club. We got a
special guest in the building that she's moving it around here.

(24:48):
That's right. Yeah, Charlomagne always has his book behind everybody.
That's that's right. Jennifer Lois George, she's fine too. That
street you're a white house for better order. If I
don't want New York Times best selling, everybody goes down
and Aunt Tea is over. We'll welcome. How are you doing?

(25:08):
How you feel? How you feeling? Guys come on stress
one time? Right, not at all? Okay, I'm happy as at.
I wrote this book during COVID. I had to get
it out of me. There's not a person in the
world that did not contemplate their death right. And I
told my family, I said, if anything happens to me,

(25:28):
because I'm sixty five, now you get that look out
you got no sixty five? Yes, I am find you,
and then I find bitch. Let go heard he stay straight.
I get out very more that the kids love that.
I brushed my teeth, spit it out. Look in the mirror,

(25:51):
I say, you bitch. Then I started my day. That's right.
You can't be touched when you start off good, that's right.
I can't get on you, that's right. I mean in
this world because I feel like the world is just
going on so many levels. No it is. That's okay
to be scared right now, but you must be unafraid.

(26:13):
Stand the up now. Are we in trouble yes? Are
they trying to take democracy itself? Yes? But evil will
not win out. Love is the glue that holds us together.
So start loving. Why don't you before you go in

(26:34):
any room? You see how I came in here, cousine,
not a club charlot, a rat bastard? How you mother?
That's how get that? So? So, I want to know

(26:57):
why you decide to write the book during COVID so much,
or what made you say I want to put it
all out there. Well that's what I do while I'm
writing a book, or not, I put it all out there.
I'll give you one teaser. I fainted at the White
House and woke up. The medical marines, the White House doctor,

(27:20):
I woke up. I went go take care of Obama mother.
All I did was fainting to Obama baby. They gave
me three Christmas cookies and some water, you know, to revive.
I'm sitting down. Ain't this the White House? I know?

(27:42):
Goddamn well, Michelle got some chicken in that guy. I said,
y'all gonna get me some chicken. Baby. They said, I
heard saw somebody whisper. They were saying, get this bitch
out of here. They putting me in a wheelchair like
an hospital, rolled me out the front gate, and dumped
my ass out of Get that out of here. Oh,

(28:03):
they loved me up you know, they loved they loved
me up there. Everybody was so concerned. I forgot to eat.
I was so excited to meet, to meet the President
and the first Lady. Come. I met them before, maybe
two or three times. But I met Barack when he
was a senator. Oprah had a fundraiser for him. Stevie

(28:24):
won to sang it was beautiful that bitch had so
much land. I was like, gone, Oprah, did Obama's check
on you afterwards? Hell no, he'd gone on upstairs with
Michelle nothing for he probably had never told him that
a crazy bitch was in the White House. Oh my god.
But you know what I learned from Obama that day

(28:48):
when he spoke. I never heard a word he said.
I only saw his compassion for the families of the
victims that had been shot in the church. The man.
You and I have been a real big activists since
Trump was elected because you see what's missing. Like you know,

(29:08):
even if you don't agree with everything that Obama did
policy wise, that compassion and the other thing he led
with love. Yes, that's why Trump came with him. Come on, now,
you leading with haydes Leading with love, you don't win.
You cannot destroy love, you can't match it. The only
thing that matches love is love. I agree with you,

(29:30):
But how do you explain white supremacy because that's been
leading with hate since the day we got him. Y'all
don't want to start me. Yes we do that January sixth,
they looked like roaches climbing those faults. How dare you you, mother?
Because where you built this building? See, they went on
tour the day before to see why they were gonna

(29:52):
get in, and whoever took him around forgot to tell
him those windows are not the same qualities as the
ones in your trailer. When the girl got tear gass
in her eyes and somebody interviewed her. But what's going on?
She said, the little Karen. They dar gasped me and

(30:16):
he said, well, who are you? My name is Sylvia
William And then they went on and they got her dress.
She gave them my dress. That dumb bitch. She was
just you know, she was being interviewed and she was distressed.
You dumb bitch. She's in jail. She got eight years. Damn.
You know. Here's the other thing. All I could vision

(30:37):
was a few of them having stopped at an ice
cream stool and stood there and couldn't decide amongst the
one hundred and fifty flavors where you just get back
to vanilla, you're dumb backs. But as they licked, they
ate ice cream on their way there. The privilege that

(30:57):
made me sick. And people were reacted like it was
just a bunch of kids having fun at spring break.
You know, I'm gonna be honest with you. With those
Republican senators are all sociopaths, you know what. I know,
Trump with his mafia ass, as soon as he got in,
he got all the dish on all those senators. I
can't go with him, Sean. Look with little boys and hookers,

(31:21):
they got pictures, so they can't even be human. The
more they're just scared. What do you think about to do?
President and Vice President Biden has experience. It's a shamis
the age? Is Kamala a bad bitch? I'm sorry, and
he's good, And I bet you in the mind of money,
he calls it Obama every mornings, Barack please, Barrock, please

(31:49):
do this years jaser choice. Do I bomb a country now?
Should I shoot them? Should I shoot them down from
the walls. I gotta tell y'all, I don't hate. I
don't hate nobody. But that was some nasty But let
me tell you another thing. History does repeat itself. I

(32:13):
thought we had evolved beyond that. We just got a
sound of a black hole. We have closed ups of Jupiter,
put a man on the moon, and all we can
do is destroy Earth. You see, I just got back
from Antarctica. Y'all know I travel. The captain of the

(32:36):
ship showed me the waterline and he said to me,
miss Lewis, I know you're a celebrity, but my crew
tells me you're an activist. I said, yes, sir, I am.
He said, I would ask that you go back to
your country and tell whoever will listen. We're in trouble.

(33:01):
The Arctic is melting at the light of speed, y'all.
We need the Polus to orbit, and these bastards don't
want it. Believe in science, dumb Trump. I'm sorry, I don't.
I don't want to want to say his name. But
do you think building building science? We got more with

(33:25):
Jennifer Lewis. Where we come back? Don't move? It's the
Breakfast Club. Come on by everybody's DJ Envy, Angela Gee, Charlomagne,
the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking
it with Jennifer Lewis, Charlomagne. Let's let's let's get back
to the book and everything. First of all, congratulations, do
you for the star in the Hollywood walking? I got
a plane mc clane, the plane, plane plane, watch it.

(33:49):
I'm getting my stock Hey on the Hollywood. Okay, oh god,
I wrote a song. How did it feel? Let me
tell you, y'all. Anybody can be famous. Now you gotta
do it somebody. But I studied, Okay, I studied Shakespeare.

(34:11):
Here you go thousand in christ with ootahogging. I am trained.
That's why I speak with distinction. I used to say,
knuckle for a nickel, give me a knock on. That's
how we talked back home. We talked like that until

(34:32):
I got to college. I found out it was nickel.
Can you believe it when you got it? When you
got it? The field surreal, I told the audience that day.
It was not the work I did on camera stage,
It was the work I did all I went and
got help. Damn near everybody in the show businesses bipolar.

(34:53):
They don't know it because they got in it to
hide that mania so they wouldn't be different. They're in
the normal world. I hesitated to take medication because I
didn't want it to take my edge. It didn't. I
stayed in literally had to be re raised. My mama

(35:15):
didn't half time to take care of me. There was
no affection. I was her seventh child and she was
twenty six. The hell is she gonna do with seven
babies scrubbing white people's floor But what she did give
me was work ethics. She stopped scrubbing white people's floors,
and she went and got her certificate and became a

(35:36):
nurse's aid. She said, I'll be damned if those white
people come to my house. To check it out so
I can get a welfare check. You remember, they used
to come in there make sure the father wasn't that
see if the daddy was home, you didn't get wealfare
if they came in there and saw you had a
nice stuff that was reported. Here's a story you don't know.

(35:58):
I'm about how old am I now? I'm six to
five nine, But I'm trying to tell a story. I
was seven years old then white man came to my
mama's house to check on it so she couldn't get it. Well,
check comes right to the front door, doesn't come roll
the way in. Yet. He peered in and saw an
upright piano that a white family had given my mother,

(36:20):
and he said these words, where you get that piano? Nigga?
I was standing there with my thumb in my mouth, thinking, no,
you the nigga. This morning, as you're going down, I
knew that mother. My mother went to the back came
back with the bucket we used to used to pan
and because we had an our house, but we were

(36:42):
pee in a bucket, but if you had to poop,
you had to cross side. My mother came back with
that bucket of pissing threw it all over. I was like, well,
I wanna say that to her. My mother was a
gangst alpha. She fed us, did whatever she had to do,
the pipes with breaking that cold Saint Louis weather. We

(37:05):
would ice, skate on the kitchen floor, run around. You know,
we didn't know and hadn't empower you with the child
to damn straight. She got a job. We were off welfare.
She said, these mothers will not tell me what to
do with my life and my children. My mother didn't play.
She taught me work ethics. That's why I'm still here.

(37:26):
That's why I have sustained and show business. You see,
not even me can stop me. I was given a
gift and I honored it, stayed alive, stayed healthy. Look
at me now, God damn high note, I'm walking in

(37:51):
my job. Boy, who has the audacity to write a
book called walking in? How did somebody walk in? Their
joys were only in five minutes? You has to go?
But that I don't give about the other interview. I'm
standing here because I know I'm talking to a lot
of black kids. Take the question again, how do somebody
walk into joy? Live on purpose? It's called life? Look

(38:15):
what we have the planet. Oh God, y'all, I've been
over the all over the world. It's so beautiful. I
just got back from the him of Laying Mountain Range.
I saw Everest, took a helicopter. I saw the base camp,
you know where they started to climb the summit. We
saw a few of them going up. Y'all know, I

(38:36):
wanted to climb that mountain when I was thirteen, and
there I was looking at Everest, a little poor girl
from ken Locke, Missouri. I went to the taj in
my hall there I was. I went to ankor Watton, Cambodia.
I went to the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi and
Petra in Jordan. All cultural treasures of the world. We

(38:58):
shouldn't destroy. The human beings have got to be nice
to live on purpose, y'all. Do your homework, do the work,
write it down what you want to do today? How
can I be nice today? I told you last time,
you gotta be happy on your way to happy. Don't

(39:18):
think you're gonna get there and then I'm happy. Oh
look what I got. No, you're the same piece of
you were when you're starting right. If anything, it makes
it worse. And what gives you that joy? What gives
you the most joy? Is it acting? Is it activism?
Or is it traveling? Was it something that you haven't mentioned.
What's more exciting to me right now than anything is

(39:41):
that I can look at you all and know that
the only thing I can do for you is live
my best life. Yes, look at me. I take care
of myself. You think this is easy. I'm in pilates,
I'm in yoga. I eat as well as I can
and stop being not like frag Chicken. It's so sick

(40:03):
of seeing my fellow sisters walking down the street and
they can't even get around. But are you gonna die?
Leave your children here for somebody to molest. Keep your
ass healthy, Come out of them dark rooms with all
that depression, stop yourself. You go get some help. But
you can start by journaling what do I want? Who

(40:24):
am I? And if you don't know, make some head up.
When you first talking to therapy, Wow, I'm thirty three
years old. Okay, I spent half my life depressed and
manic as he did you know it was depression? Absolutely noted?
It was normal. I cried every night of my life. Well,

(40:45):
there were some nights I had sex, and that was
all right. I didn't cry that night. I like Merry Christmas,
bad sex. I wish stuff he would not think my
twentieth then and get it up. I wish I wish

(41:09):
your batch would bring a lip in my house. Oh
my god, I play the hell I want to. Oh man,
life is not a rehearsal, but practice living well. You

(41:31):
can do it. You can I did. I was four,
I had mental illness, a sex addiction, molested all of it,
but I wanted to live. All right, Well, Ottle movie
got more with Jennifer Lewis When we come back, It's
a breakfast club movie. Everybody j Envy and Jelagine. Charlomagne

(41:51):
the guy we are to Breakfast Club was still kicking
it with Jennifer Lewis. Charlemagne, Did you really almost retire
after Black? Yeah? I did. I want to go home
COVID what's happening? And I wanted to go with people
I loved. I didn't know if I was gonna die.
I'm still going back. I just signed a six year
contract or a show on a show on Showtime. It's

(42:13):
called I Love That for You. It stars Molly Shannon
and Vanessa bear to a Saturday Night Live alumnis and
they are comedic giants. A six year contracts six when
you know, when you do a show, you gotta sign
a contract, and thank you. I'm so happy and the

(42:34):
role I'm doing. Guess what what they waited till line
was sixty five years old to make me a pawn star. Yeah,
it's table. You gotta watch it. What's your name? Her name?
Her name is Patricia Cochrane. I put that ran on
it her name when I got the script. Her name

(42:56):
with Patricia Kunkin. So I asked the writers, I said,
so you never know what they're gonna do with the stories.
So I said, well she married. They said no. I said, well,
what's this Conkin? They know black people named Conkin. So
I said, let it be Cochrane and let her be
Johnny Cochrane's cousin. Bad bitch, she's a billionaire. It come out.

(43:17):
It's out. There are eight episodes on Showtime right now,
and we're waiting to see if the show's gonna be
picked up. And I'm ready for it. This is a
great role. It is, by the way, it's my best work. Really.
Maybe I'm in that character. I walked into that character

(43:39):
like a fitted glove. And I'm having the time of
my life because the environment is so nice. You know,
you can get on some toxic sets and then you
can't create well. But I'm guys, I'm having the time
of my life. Here it is. I'm doing fifteen animations
right now in fifteen different voices. Wow, I got the

(44:02):
new series, new book, Wow Joy. I'm on book tour
now causing everybody out loving them. God. This woman stood
up last night at Barnes and Noble. She told the
saddest story and then she said, it's my birthday. I said, damn,
Now I can help sang my ass. I saw there's

(44:27):
a picture in the book where you posted with a
swollen face, but the caption ain't no shame in my
game looks like but the massager that I only put
on my neck all night woke up. I was just like,
oh my god, what is this. I thought it was COVID.
I thought, you know, some side effect from something or whatever. Anyway,

(44:49):
I wanted y'all to see me like that so you
can know I'm human. I get my heart broken, I
got I walk in my joy, but I'll take a
bitch down in my joy too. It ain't that much
medication in the world, okay, but personality will break through.

(45:10):
What do you want to read it? To take away
from walking in my Joy? Grow up, be nice, dream
and don't drop the ball. It is hard. Life's hard,
ain't nobody. Ain'tybody promised you a rose garden without though
once worked your way through it. It's so much in

(45:32):
that book, but it's mostly funny because after COVID I
knew the world had to laugh. When I was in Cambodia,
everything was boarded up. My guide said on any any
given day there was seven thousand tourists. There were four
hundred that day. Everybody's suffering the residue of COVID. So

(45:54):
that's why you gotta be nice. People had family members,
Many people died from this thing. I think it's three
thou three millions something past. The world is morning. Stop fighting,
being compassionate, take care of one another. We all bleed.

(46:14):
Didn't it teach us that if one of us sneezes,
we're all sick. It went around the world. Somebody sneezed,
they didn't know, So be nice. Keep saying that, do
something for somebody. I fed a lot of families during COVID.
That's how I tie Lee would love live on purpose.

(46:38):
Jennifer Lewis walking in my joy in these streets. Kick. No,
you don't get one because you didn't as you still
can do it. Yeah, we don't say goodbye. I don't
know if you can still do it. Come on, that's
what that's time. I do have to warm it up
and let me show you how to get it up. Okay,

(47:00):
don't go thunk, don don't cut down, thunk, thunk. You
can't do this. I don't try to do it. I've
been doing this since I was nineteen. I got trained
by yes man to me standing in the doorway and
just left the like a pendulum. Yes man, So you

(47:24):
know that was homework. That's history. Absolutely, you don't stop.
Keep training, keep working out, move your body, walk around
the block, try to eat right. I want my people
to be healthy. Well, you got two eyeglasses. I'm a
crazy man. I lose I think my short memories going.

(47:49):
That's okay, we're gonna go. I'm gonna go get do
whatever I got do. I need this water? You left
drink water, hidra please man, you left. You left us
a lot of memories. We love you, miss Lewis, I'm
showing it. Oh okay, it's Jennifer Lewis. It's the breakfast

(48:09):
club boy. It's time for Donkey of the Day, Democrat.
So being Donkey of the day a little bit of
a mix up. So like a Donkey o the day bitch. Now,
I've been called a lot of my twenty three years,

(48:30):
but Donkey of the Day is a new wife. Hey, hey, guys,
Donkey to Day for Tuesday, April eleventh goes to United Airlines.
Is the staff record label airline and mother eff and crew. Okay,
now I let the record show. I fly Jet Blue.
I'm a problem, gonna say Amember. And when it comes
to over booking Jet Blue fliers don't have that problem
because they don't over book flights. I think over booking

(48:52):
flights is greedy. I think it's an inconvenience, and I
wish you would stop. If it's a hundred flights on
a plane, sell one hundred flights, hundred seats, one hundred seats.
What did I say, I'm on drugs. If it's one
hundred seats on a plane, sell one hundred seats. Okay,
don't do people like that all right, people got places
to go, people to see. I don't want to spend
a few hundred dollars on the flight, and then when
I get there, you're telling me to flight is overbook

(49:14):
It makes no sense, and it causes unnecessary problems like
the one we saw yesterday on a United Airlines flight
headed from Chicago to Louisville. Not a man who has
not yet been identified by name, of course we all
know what he looks like by now. He was forcibly
removed because, according to a statement, the airline said, four
crew members needed to get to a flight departing from Louisville,

(49:34):
otherwise it would be canceled. Now, passengers were asked to
give up their seats voluntarily, and when no one volunteered,
which is perfectly fine because they don't have to, because
they paid for their seats like everyone else, and they
have places to go, and it's not their fault that
airlines have this dumb ass policy called over booking. Now,
when no one volunteered to give up the seat they
paid for, the airline was forced into an involuntary deboarding situation.

(49:58):
Never heard of that, never heard of. It didn't tell yesterday,
but I now know that it translates into okay, now
get the hell off this plane or somebody getting their
ass beat well. Four passengers were selected to get their
ass kicked before whatever reason, they decided to only make
an example out of one, some poor little Asian doctor
who was minding his business and needed to get home
to see his patients. When the man refused, as he

(50:20):
had every right to do. United the Airline said it
then followed US Department of Transportation protocol and calling in
local law enforcement to forcibly remove the man from the
plane after he refused to leave. Would you like to
hear how it sounded here you go? Come on, come on?

(50:54):
Where was Kendall Jenna with the PEPSI to give to
the local law enforcement to calm this situation down? Now?
United CEO Oscar moona moonas or whatever issue the statement.
And I must say his statement sucked because Oscar put
the blame on the victim. Oscar said that the guy
became more and more disruptive and belligerent when asked to
come off the aircraft. Dub if I paid for my

(51:16):
ticket and had somewhere to be, yes, I would be agitated.
And there's nothing but lligerent about that. Okay, I just
don't want to get off this flight, and I don't
understand why the hell you guys are bothering me. This
is a classic example of someone being completely out of
touch with regular, everyday people, because I am positive that
if the CEO of United, Oscar Mouna Us or whatever
his name was, was sitting on a flight just say
it wasn't a United flight, just sitting on a flight

(51:37):
and someone asked him to leave, he would get so
called disruptive and so called belligerent too. I really wish
we all would just remember the Golden roll one the
others that you would have them do. Un to you,
it's not rocket science, it's not complicated. Okay. Human beings
should simply give people the energy they want to receive
that same energy you want back. You would have to

(51:57):
see me when you come to the window, So you
gotta have to say at all times, okay, you should
only be forcibly removed when you have no business in
the situation whatsoever. When you trust passing, when someone is
being forcibly removed, that means they did something wrong. They
have no business being there. What did this guy do
other than put money in United Da Airlines pocket. He
had every right to be there because he bought a ticket,
and if he had somewhere to be and didn't want

(52:18):
to leave, he had the right to get his rosa
pox on and say nah and refuse to leave this seat. Okay.
Also United Airlines common sense. Why wouldn't you account for
an employee seats first? Isn't that who should be assigned
seats before anyone else? I mean that would only make
sense if this man chooses to ride on trash ass
United Airlines ever again, he should get free for US
class flights and unlimited snacks for the rest of his life.

(52:38):
And to think all of this could be avoided if
airlines simply stopped over booking flights. It's just an inconvenience
to everybody. Airplane tickets are expensive. When I book a
flight that should guarantee me a seat, period, I gotta
receive a busted lip and get dragged off a plane
because you United to overbooked the flight and didn't have
room for its employees. That's my fun. Please give you Ninity,
the Airlines and the CEO Oscar Munas the biggest heat Hofleas.

(53:05):
I'm just saying, well, they was saying that they had
to this alleged that they had to fly the crew
in to another city because there was an airliner there
that didn't have a crew, and if the crew didn't
make it to that city to fly that next airliner,
instead of four people being upset, it'd be a plane
of over one hundred people being upset. That's why they
had to fly the plane the crew in Alga. What

(53:27):
does that have to do with me? What happened to
the customer always being right? What does that have to
do with me? I'm sitting on this plane mine and
my damn business. Okay, what what does what does what's
going on with United and its employees and what crew
got to be? Where I got to do with me?
And they said, there's a stipulation when you buy you
take it that if they need to take it back
or they need that seat, that they could possibly take it.
That's what they say. Never heard that stipulation of my life.

(53:50):
I've never seen that in the fine print. A breakfast club.
It's topic time phone called eight hundred five eight five
one five want to join it to the discussion with
the breakfast club? Talk about it. Everybody is DJ and

(54:10):
V Charlemagne the guy, we are the breakfast club now
if you just joined us. Charlemagne gave donkey up the
day to United Airlines. Yeah, United Airlines NN CEO Oscar
moon Nas or whatever for the way they treated that
poor Asian doctor on that flight yesterday. And then Oscar
the CEO had the nerve the victim blame and say
that the guy was acting belligerent and disruptive if I
have bought me a ticket right. First of all, it's

(54:31):
why I hate overbooking on flights. I think overbooking is
just stupid. If it's one hundred seats, one hundred seas
is all that it should be, right. But if you
overbooked the flight and now you need to get somebody
else on the flight, and I got somewhere to go,
and you're telling me that I have to get off
the plane and I don't want to. Why wouldn't I
get a little disruptive? Absolutely? Why wouldn't I get a
little agitated? Why wouldn't my voice raine something a little bit?

(54:52):
That's not being belligerent. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello,
who's this Hey, Christy from Milwaukee. Have you ever been
kicked off a flight? Um, No, I have not. I
suld only taking a flight twice in my life. Oh
Jesus christ you need to get out mobile. That box
ain't work for trip. Ain't nobody flying you out? Damn

(55:13):
all you getting this local vetus. This is Christy. Hey Chrissy.
Have you ever been kicked off a flight? I've never
been kicked off a flight. Over the weekend, I bought
the hotel room for its year and got to the
hotel and the hotel didn't I have my reservation already
paid for, went for like fourteen different hotels after that,

(55:36):
just to have to sign something that wouldn't really accommodate us.
With one king size man in Espenia is on the
phone like, oh well, so what happened? How did you resolved? Well?
After that, I ended up getting a hotel room somewhere else,
paying for it, you know, like paying for a room twice.
And because I couldn't deal with you media at the moment,

(55:58):
and then the next day I ended up called them.
They did give me like the runaround to through like
four or five different people, but I got my money refunded.
And what they did was they like a two hundred
dollars travel credit on my media account as if I
want to travel with them again. But you know, hey,
I guess you're living. You learn, you know, look, and

(56:20):
you can tell people who don't fly because it just
dude on Twitter named Mickey Vicious people United dudes should
have been thrown off the plane. They were gonna pay
him to leave. They always pay you when they want
you to volunteer. They give up your seat. Sir, Hello,
who's that sinking feel about you or something? Gabriel, you
ever been kicked up a flight before? Yes, I have,
what happened being too fat, but primarily Na, nah, primarily

(56:44):
because of my last name. What's your last name? Mohammed yelling?
What's that means? It's a serial last name? Oh? Got you?
So they just kicked you off the flight? Well, yeah,
because they should. They didn't properly check me, so they
removed me from the plane, made me take all my
clothes off, you know, check my belt buck or everything
like that, because you know, my last name was foreign.

(57:06):
Now this was just Bush era, Obama era or Trump era.
Oh this is Obama eerr wow? Wow? Wow, this was
this was Southwest actually wow. Yeah. And and they they
pretty much that their whole thing was, you know, well,
we gotta make sure that all of our passengers are safe, this, that,

(57:30):
and the other. But here's what I want to say
about that, Because you know, I'm an American, I was
born in American. I don't care what my last name was.
I paid for my flight. I did exactly what I
was supposed to do. I really, I really felt violated
at that point. You know, yeah, I wouldn't have got
off that plane and I would have sued the ish
out of them. And I'm gonna be honest with you, man,
you deserve better than life the Southwest. Okay, So I
definitely not a big gass bust in discust, not like Southwest.

(57:54):
I listened. I ain't no boogie individual at all. But
I don't want to get on no plane where you
could just pick you on seat. I'm sorry, I don't.
I don't. The first time he went to Charlotte, Charlemagne
had the best a line. I never had a line.
I don't know why you even feel like telling that
lot eight hundred five eight five one O five one.
Have you ever got kicked off a flight before? Colvis?

(58:15):
Now it is the breakfast club. Call me your opinions
to the Breakfast Club top five one five one that
was Drake with Fake Love Morning. Everybody is dj en

(58:36):
ve angela Ye, Charlemagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club.
Now if you just joined us, we're asking have you
ever got kicked off off flight? That it comes from
Charlemagne given United Donkey of the Day. They kicked this
gentleman off really for no reason, for no reason, and
this dude it was because of overbooking and he didn't
want to voluntary leave, so they had for him forcibly removed.
But a young lady on Twitter said to me, Hey

(58:57):
see the god on my way to work. Her name
is at Voodoo Dog. She said, you just said, I quote,
nobody's pulling me off a plane. You show about that, pumpkin.
I'm absolutely sure that you're not pulling me off the plane.
I'm gonna leave. You know. You know what you're talking to,
Voodoo Doll. She's pulling you off the plane. But I'm
gonna leave. And the reason I'm gonna leave because I
thought the video of what they did to this Asian man.
So either we're gonna fight or I'm just gonna walk

(59:17):
off the plane. Hello who's this good morning? Hey? I
know you don't want to say your name. Now you
know my name is Michelle the morning. Oh okayy Michelle.
Well then you work for United. So here's here's my
story with United. I've been a Star Alliance member for
years and I haven't had to be removed from a plane.
But unfortunately I am that that frequent flier who shows

(59:39):
up and someone else has to be removed because I've
actually shown up. But what I saw yesterday, it's so appalling.
Shout out to you guys for giving them donkey of
the day. The entire crew of flight thirty four eleven
and the Department of Transportation Chicago or hairs entire um

(01:00:00):
what do they call them? You know? The law enforcement,
the law enforcement exactly that they have on right. All
of them deserve it because no one should be treated
that way. And you can't help but to bring race
into the equation. Would they have treated someone who was
a lot larger? Would they have treated the seamail this way?
The fact that they um the over excess of force?
So Charlemagne, I couldn't agree with you more. Where's the

(01:00:23):
pepsi at both United others? You know? Um, and they
actually carried coat products, but they might as well start
carrying United PETI products on those flights. Let me ask
you one question, baby, Let let me ask you a question.
Since you have the preferred membership or whatever, would you
even want the seat after seeing how do you know? No?
You know what? I actually I would love to find

(01:00:45):
an airline who I can like, um, you know, transfer
my mileage and and and you know, I honestly I
have to always have apply to the West Coast, specifically
San Francisco, and they are a hub for United. But
after what they've gone through to what they did this weekend, no,
absolutely not. I'd rather I looking for a shopping around

(01:01:07):
for a new carrier. And the other thing regarding there,
I can't remember the rule right now, but from an
operational age issue, they could have played either the passengers
or their own crew on another carrier to get them
out to Louis Delta meet. You use a smaller plane
and you charter your flight for your crew to get

(01:01:28):
where you need to get to. But that is an
operational issue from their special control. Absolutely, thank you, Michelle,
You're very well. Thank you, Michelle. Hello, who's this? Hello? Hey?
What's your name, you know my name? Tone, nice man, queen,
stand up to how big are you? Sound like? You
got that same energy at all times? I got the

(01:01:49):
same energy all day. Money goes all day. How much
do you wait? Tone, you'll listen, You'll know I'm a
fetting if you folm playing, maybe three four hundred pounds
something like that. The type of person we would hate
to sit by on a plane. And they could never
forcibly remove you because you're too big. No, no, listen,
I ain't that big. I don't look that big a person.
Do you fly? What class do you fly? Cargo? Stop? Man,

(01:02:12):
you got kicked up a flight because away listen, I'm in.
I'm in Jamaica. I'm coming back to Queens, Jamaica. Yo,
ya know, Jamaican people rule. Joe the Lady, come up
to medio. Listen, because everybody else comfortability. We might not
fit you on the plane. I just flew in. I
just got in. They're like, nah, you ain't good, so

(01:02:33):
later we might have to get you a new ticket,
but you gotta pay two hundreds. Yeah, listen, I missed
my flight three times. They don't wanna let me on. No, no, no, no, no,
you missed your flight three times. Three hundred pounds. Man,
you missed your flight three times because you needed three seats.
All right, let's be clear about I have seen that.

(01:02:56):
I haven't seen. I haven't seen him get big people
and tell them to go on the other side of
the plane before. You never see that before. Hey, I'm
gonna be honest with you, y'all know I have no
remorse for this one whatsoever. I'm down with everybody. But
if you're fat and you're on the plane, he either
buy three seats or stop complaint. All right, get three
seat belts. Hello, Who's this is? Nick? And Houston? How

(01:03:16):
you got? All right? Nick? Now tell us what you said.
We're looking at this all wrong. Yeah, yeah, I kind
of feel like so. So I worked for a competitive airline,
and while I would love to say this is all
United Foot, a part of me feels like it's not because,
I mean, if you think about it, it wasn't United
police that came on the plane and removed this guy, right, So, like,
if you think about it this way, somebody walked into
the breakfast club. You guys asked him to leave, he

(01:03:37):
doesn't leave, You call the police. The police come in there.
Rip them out of that. The guys has a heart
attack on the way out. His thing. We tried to
shoot the breakfast club, right is the is it? Y'all
fought that the man died when the police came and
got him out. By the way. By the way, let's
talk about all the people who have been forcibly removed
from the Breakfast Club, because it's been some few it's
been a couple of people come into building. People that
get forcibly removed from here, deserve to get forcibly removed

(01:03:59):
from here because they're probably trying to assault me, right,
all right, okay, and we throw them out first and
then the police because these these are people that are
actually doing something wrong. So that's a terrible example. This
guy wasn't doing anything wrong. He was a paid customer. No, no, no,
think about it. Think about it, though, If somebody comes
into the breakfast club and they're trying to hurt you,
they breaking the breakfast club policy. The fact of the
matter is is that you really are agreeing to being

(01:04:22):
able to be removed if asked to make room for
for employees, for for airline employees. It's part of the policy.
Don't you can't you can't. He shouldn't be forcibly removed. Oh,
my brother, like, there's no reason to be forcibly removed.
I understand that. But but it wasn't United that forcibly
removed the guys. My point. He said, it was the police.

(01:04:44):
He said they did. You're right with that, but but
it's still it's definitely bad off you. Thank you, you're right,
but it's bad py off of you that it's horrible
p off of United. All right, well, what's the moral
of the story. But the moral of the stories? I
heard a great quote one time by a guy named
Steve Doffman. He sai that the customer is not always right,
but your job is never to show them how they're wrong.

(01:05:04):
Your job is to be professional, courteous, accommodating, and to
demonstrate emotional maturity, even and especially under scress. I saw
United or the law enforcement not be professional, not be courteous,
not be accommodating. They definitely didn't demonstrate any emotional maturity.
And that was a scressful situation, and they failed miserably.

(01:05:26):
It's a breakfast local money, the breakfast club. The positive notice.
Simply getting your stuff together requires a level of honesty
you can't even imagine. There's nothing easier about realizing you're
the one that's been holding you back this whole time.
Breakfast Club, Y'll finish it. Y'all dumb,
