(01:06):
good morning, good morning, d d VS. Everything good. I'm
not gonna lie. I'm exhausted today. I've been having a
long week. But shout out to everybody who came out
to my book club yesterday. You know, every month I
do this book club. I try to support of black
authors because there's not a lot of outlets for authors
to support themselves and to promote when they have a
book coming out. So I do this book club, and

(01:28):
this is the first time I did it at the Schaumberg,
which is in Harlem, and it's part of the New
York Public Library Hole ecosystem, so I'm also an ambassador
for the New York Public Library. So it was like
my first situation with them. Nice. It was really great,
and thank you to Divine Franklin who came out. He's
gonna be on the Breakfast Club this morning. He's gonna
be joining us this morning in a little bit, so
we'll kick it with him. You know, yesterday I did
nothing but sleep. I've been tired for nice from Atlanta.

(01:50):
I was in Atlanta for the last four days from
Super Bowl. I was looking at some property, so I
was just tired. So yesterday when I got home, I
said hello to the kids. I was hoping London with
a home working. The next thing I knew, it was
four o'clock, any time for me to get up. So
I don't know if I helped the right. I don't
know if I helped the because you had to make sentences,
so I'm hoping the sentences are right. Well, look, I
went to bed, I got home at like ten thirty.
And then I have another book club, well a book

(02:12):
of launch for Anti Tea Time and she wrote to
Hate You Give and she has another book on the
come up. So that book is like four hundred something pages. Wow,
And so I was trying to make sure I got
through it. So I stayed up trying to read last
night until I fell asleep. And then I also have
officially launched my drink fresh Juice dot com, which is
my subscription based press juices. So if you go to

(02:34):
drink fresh Juice dot com, it's official. Finally. It's taking
a long time to get it together. I thought it
was going to launch in November, then December, but it's
finally ready to go. Everything approved and it's all fresh
natural press juices. It's vegan, all of that. Nothing added
to it. Well, congratulations, thank you. Did you see them?

(02:55):
I can just guess he talked about building a wall,
talked about building a wall, and he said he's gonna
build the wall. I'm sure that's what he said. Well,
don't worry. On Front page News, I do have some
of those recaps because I was trying to watch that
this morning as I was getting ready for work. So
whatever you missed, we have some of those recaps for
you this morning. All right. We'll get into all that,
and don't forget the Vrone Frank when we'll be joining
us in a little bit as well, So don't move.

(03:16):
It's to breakfast club. Good morning, morning, everybody is dj
M v Angela. Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are to
breakfast clubles's getting some front page news. Yes, we're talking
about Oh, do you have any sports now, there's no sports, okay, Charlomagne,
good morning, all right. We're talking about Donald Trump State
of the Union yesterday. Now he is asking for unity

(03:39):
in the government because you know, the government shut down.
It has only been delayed until next week, so hopefully
they can come to some sort of resolution so that
people can stay working and stay getting paid for their work.
Here's what he had to say. We must choose between
great yes or grid luck, results or resistance, vision or vengeance,

(04:00):
incredible progress or pointless destruction. Tonight, I ask you to
choose greatness, all right. Now. He also, of course, has
talked about border security. Here's what he says about border security.
In the past, most of the people in this room
voted for a wall, but the proper wall never got built.

(04:22):
I will get it built. Congress has ten days left
to pass a bill that will fund our government, protect
our homeland, and secure our very dangerous southern border. I
have ordered another three thousand, seven hundred and fifty troops
to our southern border to prepare for this tremendous onslaught.

(04:45):
All right, Now he goes on to talk about these
Chinese tarriers, because you know, a lot of people were
discussing the economy and how that's going to affect people.
Here here's what he said about these taxes before. He said,
so if he doesn't do this in the next ten days,
what happens in ten days? Set it back down, because
you know it's only temporary that it's not shut down
until I think the fifteenth. I'm not shut it down again,

(05:07):
but it's possible. Yeah, you never know with this guy.
Here's what he had to say about these Chinese tariffs.
We are now making it clear to China that after
years of targeting our industries and stealing our intellectual property,
the theft of American jobs and wealth has come to
an end. Therefore, we recently imposed tariffs on two hundred

(05:30):
and fifty billion dollars of Chinese goods, and now our
treasury is receiving billions and billions of dollars. Another thing
that Donald Tumps talked about in his State of the
Union last night was North Korea. Here's what he has
to say. If I had not been elected President of
the United States, we would right now, in my opinion,

(05:53):
being a major war with North Korea. Arch work remains
to be done, but my relationship with Kim Jong On
is a good one. Chairman, Kim and I will meet
again on February twenty seventh and twenty eighth in Vietnam.
Donald Trump in the State of the Union also goes

(06:13):
on to talk about here was something good that everyone
shared for women in Congress, and exactly one century after
Congress passed the Constitutional Amendment giving women the right to vote,
we also have more women serving in Congress than at

(06:34):
any time before. Well, that was one of the good
things that has come out from people being more aware
of what's going on and understanding that they have to
make sure that we put ourselves in positions. I thought
the State of the Union was solid. I mean, the
bars weren't immaculate. He's no Baraca. No, you know, well
he stuck to the script. No me, but you know
he was good. Now, here's what Van Jones thought about

(06:56):
Donald Trump State of the Union. I saw this as
a psychotically incoherent speech with cookies and dog poop. He
tries to put together in the same speech these warm,
kind things about human hereanism and caring about children. At
the same time he is demonizing people who are immigrants

(07:16):
in a way that was a pop all right. He definitely,
uh was standing firm on his stance about illegal immigrants.
He's never backing down from that. Now, that's not Here's
what else Van Jones had to see about the State
of the Union. That's okay. So that's the only Aldio
we got, all right. I think Van is upset because
Van didn't get a shot out when Donald Trump took

(07:39):
full credit for the first first step back. You think
that's all that was, Yeah, I think so. And he said,
when you talked about alex Marie Johnson, he said, my
friends didn't give kim O Kanye a shot out either.
That Kanye's man he might beat this morning. Ain't getting
no shot out. All right, well last front page news.

this means one or two things. This guy doesn't watch

basketball or he does not understand who Tim Duncan is.
I'm a huge first fan, first and foremost, so when
I heard you say that, I said, that is so
dead on calling anybody the Tim Duncan of anything is

a lot of people out there going through the tool
at a young age. I didn't do the worst, no,

my little eight year old daughter told me she wanted

(16:07):

lot of attention, just fopped her little Instagram videos, even
much that the CEO of the Miami Dawkins had her
DJ August twenty fifth, a halftime show at Dalphin Stadium,
leaving gotten like little sponsorships with kids, foot locker and

awaited kidney transplant. All right, we'll get into all that
when we come back. Keeping lock. This the breakfast Club.
Good morning, the breakfast Club. She's filling the team. This
is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club.

(17:52):
But this is getting spicy, all right, there's some new
rap beef after chance. The wrapper was in the Flaming
Hot Dorrito's commercial for this Super Bowl. I stopped full
over my nachos, waking like a topco drum roost fingers,
I'm a hot chester Man. And then come on, man,

(18:13):
I'm gonna need some need another outfit fling and I'm
magan one into the clime. Am I talking? Well? Chester
Cheetah didn't like that Lord Wayne need to be beef
with a chance to rapping for copywriter Frenchman. He sounded
just like Lott who stole Little whe his whole style, delivery,
everything on that. He definitely does sound like Little Wayne

(18:35):
and that. Now Chester Cheetah had an issue as well,
Chester Cheetah, what else that you don't know? Chester Cheetah, Oh,
I got this for you, because now there's some beef,
some Frito Lay beef, now, Chester Cheetah said. When I
saw that Doritos dropped a hot, flaming Hot Nato flavor,
I had to come through and remind them that I'm
the flaming hot og. Listen to this. Come on, Doritos,

(18:58):
you can't drupt the flaming hot And I didn't watch
your stabs from the old in the stack game. You
claim trying gonna I made you square. You had to
borrow my key just to make the world Care, you
got slabs and the remix song for lack a bag
of Cheetos. You won't last long. So next time you
try to take what I got, remember I'm flaming hot
and you're flaming not Cheetos versus. I thought flaming was

(19:23):
a gayesler. It was at one point in life. Well,
these are just for Chetos right now, and de Ritos
so's flaming hot. Yeah, these are flaming hot. No, they
both gonna kill you. Flaming hot is not a flavor.
All that process food mad at each other, rap battle
and to see who can kill you first. The only
thing that is flaming hot is fire. Who he has
ever tasted fire? Exactly? We taste fire, That's my point.

(19:45):
But I do love really spicy spicy foods all the
time flaming hot, but I've never ever had either one
of those. I think I could be on that show
Hot Wings and be fine because I can eat really
spicy hot food. Yeah, I ate all my wings. Yeah,
I don't have any power. I love that loving my
mouth is on fire. Oh and really, Andy, Andy, you

Tory LANEZ, I guess it wasn't feeling it. Check it out?
Oh God, like god, Tyres, I don't know what the

That's the game Tory Lanes versus Tyrese. When it comes

(21:06):
to R and B, Tyrese got that, Tory Lanes versus
black Tie and Rap. Tory Lane got that, m okay,
So you give it to to Tory Lane and Rap. Yes,
Tory versus black Tie. I'm giving that the Tory all
day long. But Tyrese wants to know who has the
better album full album smoke fifty K in your head

It just depends. Like if it's R and B, I'm

(21:27):

That's tyres Is Lane all day. But Rap Tory does RMB.
But yeah, ain't he't not mess with with with Tyrese
when it comes to R and B. Now RMB, All right, now,
let's send our prayers out to Freeway. He had to
check into a Baltimore hospital for surgery. He got his
long away to kidney transplant and his manager did provide

(21:49):
an update saying that it was a success. He is
now in recovery and he has thanked everyone for all
their prayers. So shout out to our guy Freeways a
lot happy for that brother, dropping the clues from Freeway.

That Freeway had this to say, thank y'all for all
the prayers, on the support everything. Well the surgery, well

(22:31):
Taylor from Philly, that's one of our producers. Did you

dance to no Better Love by the young guns that
state property. The least you could do is a salute
freeway'm angela, yean, that's your rumor report. All right, thank you,
miss ye Now when we come back with our front

(22:51):
page news, we're talking about your president. Yes, your president
had had stated at the Union I know your eyes
were glued to the television last night. All right, we'll
talk about it when we come back. Don't move. It's
Breakfast Club Corning. Good morning. Everybody is DJ mvy Angela yee,
Charlomagne the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's getting
some front page news. All the Wizards fans out there
watching the Wizards. I know you might be a little

(23:12):
upset John Wall. It looks like he will be out
twelve months. They're saying that he slipped in his house
and he are eruptured in his achilles, so he will
be out for twelve months. Yeah, that sucks, that's very
that's horrible. Es. Basically, to slip in your house, I'd rather, like,
you know, slip on the court, like you want to
get hurt in the line. Of duty. You know, you
don't get hurt at all, You don't want get hurt
at all, but if you do, you want to get

(23:33):
hurt in the line of duties, just walking around your crib.
Because now I'm sure people are questioning him, like, oh,
how do we know he really fell in his heart
that motorcycle? Was he really doing exactly? Was he doing
something that where we don't have to pay him his
money right even though I think he's guaranteed regards. Yeah,
what else were talking about? Well, yesterday was Donald Trump's
second State of the Union address, and it's also just
weeks after the longest shutdown that we've had in the

(23:54):
United States history, and we also have another funding laps
coming up, so we don't know whether or not there's
going to be an the shutdown anyway. In the midst
of all that, Donald Trump had a State of the
Union address, and here are some of the things that
he said. He wants there to be unity within the government.
We must choose between greatness or grid luck, results or resistance,
vision or vengeance, incredible progress or pointless destruction. Tonight I

(24:20):
ask you to choose greatness, all right. In addition to that,
he of course had to push home his point about
border security. In the past, most of the people in
this room voted for a wall, but the proper wall
never got built. I will get it built. Congress has

(24:41):
ten days left to pass a bill that will fund
our government, protect our homeland, and secure our very dangerous
southern border. I have ordered another three thousand, seven hundred
and fifty troops to our southern border to prepare for
this tremendous onslaught. You know what I'd like to know
about border security? What do they have now? Like? What's

(25:04):
there now? Like what they do have security there? Now?
It's not a wall yet, they have security though, Yeah,
they have thousands of people at the borders all right now.
He also had one point that everybody I think can
agree on, and that was the point about women in Congress.
And exactly one century after Congress passed the constitutional amendment

(25:26):
giving women the right to vote, we also have more
women serving in Congress than at any time before. Well,
that's good news, right, But a lot of that is
the reaction to Donald Trump being president. Um. Now, Van
Jones had this to say about Donald Trump's speech. I
saw this as a as a psychotically incoherent speech with

(25:49):
cookies and dog poop. He tries to put together in
the same speech these warm, kind things about humanitarianism and
caring about children. At the same time he is demonizing
uh people who are immigrants in a way that was pelo. Okay, Van,
you keep that rhetoric up. There ain't gonna be no
second step, all right. In fact, that first step you took,

(26:11):
we're gonna tell you to take that one back. All right.
All right, well that is your front page news. But
by the way, I thought trump speech was solid. I
don't believe the word he says, but I thought it
was solid. I was never wrote it. Oh yeah, I
wasn't expecting much, and I mean he had extra time
to prepare because you know, he had the whole government
shutdown and whatnot. But I thought it was cool. Wasn't
as entertaining as I would have actually liked. To be honest, Trump,

(26:33):
I think he's one of the best to end up
comics in the world today. I didn't really you know,
he laughed, We didn't chuckle. Super Bowl was better. I
didn't watch the Super Bowl. I don't know that. My
daughter sheilean competition. All right, all right, Well, when we
come back off of Pastor Davone Franklin will be joining us.
Franklin shout out to divine Franklin. Man. I was with
him last night, A year with him today, right, Oh yes,

(26:54):
I gotta fly to Chicago for the day and we're
doing an event. Don't ask me anything else because I
don't know. I don't. I just know I'm in Chicago
for the day. I'm coming an event with Dvan Franklin
mental health and you know, growing as a man, stuff
like that. All right, well, we'll kick it with him
when we come back, so don't move. It's to Breakfast Club.
Good morning morn and everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee,
Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got

(27:16):
a special guest in the building, My man, Devon Franklin
is here. Good morning, yo man, Good morning, good morning.
How are you feeling. He's got a new book called
The Truth About Men, What Men and Women need to Know.
Can I read some of these chapter g before we started?
Oh my gosh, here we got our men really dogs
Chapter one, Beware of the Dog, Chapter two, Except the dog,
Chapter three, Master the Dog, Chapter four, Don't feed the Dog.

(27:37):
Chapter five, claiming Territory, Chapter six, Discipline the Dog, Safe
Space Chapter eight, Repair the Damage. What are you saying
about the brothers divon? What are you saying about us? Man?
I'm saying that we got to do our work. What
I'm saying is that every man struggles. And so when
you look at this, of course, I'm not calling men
dogs at all. You know, I put in the introduction
men are not dogs, but we can behave like one

(27:58):
when we allow the dog in us. And I believe
that every man has a dog. And that's an analogy.
It's a metaphor for lust, and that's a selfish impulse
for professional sexual, financial gain by any means necessary, even
if those means are detrimental. So when you read all
those chapters, I use this analogy that if we as
men can master the dog, which means putting love and
control of lust. Love is sacrificial, meaning love of self,

(28:20):
love of God, love of the woman in our life.
Lust is selfish, It demands to be fed whenever it
starts to quote unquote bark. But when we as men
put love and control of lust, selflessness and control of selfishness,
then we begin to learn how to master this thing
that all men have that you cannot eradicate, but you
can master it. So all those chapter titles are just
steps on how to do it. You basically, let me

(28:44):
tell y'all something you do, let me tell you both something? Yeah, absolutely, right, Okay,
trying to tell right right. I feel like, you know,
I've heard Minister Frackon say that you have to turn
the dog around. You have to be where God where

(29:05):
divine beings. Yeah, you know, so you have to turn
that dog around were God's Yes, well it's it's true.
But so often, as men, we become so accustomed to
the ways of the dog in our life, you know, selflessness,
putting our own needs above everyone else, that it becomes
hard to be aware that instead of God controlling our lives,
it's the dog controlling our life. So the beginning part

(29:27):
is awareness. Hey, I gotta look in the mirror and say,
you know what, I gotta be better, yes, and I
gotta do better. And I got to become more accountable
and responsible for my behavior as a man. You even
talk about writing this book, right, what even made you
do this? Maria Schreiber, You said you had an interview
when she said you need to write a book about this,
but it was a lot for you to have to
be introspective about issues that you've had within yourself. Yeah,
you know. I mean I didn't want to write this book,

(29:49):
you know, because I believe as men, we don't like
to look in the mirror, and I don't like to
look in the mirror. And I didn't have to write
this book. It required me to be transparent, and I
can't encourage everybody else to be transparent if I'm not
going to be parent. So, Maria Shriver, you prompted me
because I had pitched her what this idea was. She said,
you need to do it now, But the idea was
already there. And one of the reasons why I wanted
to write this book is because of pain. And I believe,

(30:12):
as men, we inflict so much pain on the lives
of women, and women are in so much pain relative
to our behavior. And one of the things that was
very personal to me was my father. My father died
when I was nine years old of a heart attack
when he was thirty six, at thirty six years old,
and so, you know, we grew up he was an alcoholic,
but it wasn't until my teenage years where I found
a picture of him, my mother and a female family

(30:35):
member sitting on a bed, and my mother was looking distraught,
but my father and that female family member were looking
very happy. And I said, what's going on here? Why
is my mother in so much pain? Come to find out,
my father and that female family member had an affair.
And so I began to say, well, wait a minute.
If my father, you know, had an affair with someone

(30:56):
else in my family and cause that kind of pain
to my mother, what does that say about me? And
I began to ask the question can men be faithful?
Can we? And when I would ask the women in
my family, they would say, of all men cheap And
so as a kid, I'm like, is this true? I said, well,
what do I have to do to become the one percent?
And what I began to realize, it's part of becoming
the one percent, was acknowledging that Yo, I'm part of

(31:18):
the problem too. If I don't do my work, if
I don't recognize I have this thing in me that
wants what it wants whatever it wants it, If I
don't learn to master that, I then no matter how,
no matter how much I love my wife and I
love her too, death all right, and I am completely faithful.
But if I think that I don't have to do
my work one day, I will do something that will
cause the same pain that my mother had in my

(31:40):
wife's lives. If I don't do my work. You have
no idea how much you preach it to the choiry. Now,
like I've been with my woman for twenty years, I've
been We've both done dirt over the past twenty years.
But I've been completely faithful since like twenty sixty. And
I made that choice for that exact same reason, because
I was, like, I do not want to cause my
family the same pain that my father called my mom

(32:01):
and our family. There it is, man, there it is,
and and so much of us as men, you know,
our struggle is so much directly related to our fathers.
And a lot of us, especially in communities of color,
were raised without fathers, or the fathers that we had
may not have been everything we want, and so a
lot of times, you know, especially I know for me,
you know, I grew up with a lot of brokenness
because society says this is what this is what men
are supposed to be. You're supposed to be strong, you're

(32:23):
supposed to be tough. You're not supposed to cry, and
supposed to get a lot of vagina, right, But and
if you don't do any of those things, most of
the time growing up we're met with violence. So what
do we learn? Do not talk, don't communicate, suppress, But
anything we suppress we empower to destroy us. That's why
this lusk can get so strong because we're not talking
about it, We're not being honest about it. And what

(32:45):
does it do. It finds it a way to come
out in the most detrimental and usually destructive ways. And
a lot of times women are on the receiving end
of this, and a lot of times women are programmed
to think, well, I have to deal with this type
of behavior from my man, because like you said, and
women really to leave that. So they're like, well, at
least he treats me good in every other way. We
are getting this number? Well, he said, he asked women

(33:10):
women in their heads. If you ask women, they think
on men cheat, Yeah, And so like we've had this
discussion many times on live services, women like, well, men
always cheat anyway, I don't know any man who doesn't cheat.
So it kind of makes it normalize that type of
behavior where that's just what it is well well, And
that's one of the reasons why I wanted to write
the book, because the book is not just for men.
It's for women too, because women are dealing with something

(33:31):
and dealing with someone they do not understand. And so
if you don't understand something, your odds of becoming successful
with it are very, very low. So I wrote this
book to illuminate truth about men so women can get it.
But when a woman makes the decision that I will
live less than what I believe i'm worth just to
be with a man and accept him however he is,
I believe that one of the reasons I wrote this

(33:52):
book is for women to read it and say, you
know what, I'm gonna stop today. I'm gonna be I'm
gonna challenge him on his behavior even if he leaves
me guess what he's gonna leave anyway, because today begins
a day of respect and a day of love. And
I'm not just going to be a doormat for a
man's ways. And when I talk about in the book,
men need women to master this dog. We need you
talk about you've been with your one for twenty years,

(34:13):
I guarantee you or I would not be the men
that we are if we didn't have the love of
a woman in our life. But that's a love of
a woman that we allow into our process. I think
sometimes women think they can master the man's dog form.
You can't do that, But the love of a woman
can help. But it starts with respect. And as men,
when the woman in our life doesn't respect us, she

(34:34):
allows us just to do whatever we want. And even
though men don't like to be told what to do,
we do need to be held accountable. All right. We
have more author and pastor Devon Franklin. When we come back,
don't move. It's to breakfast club. Go morning, Jay Envy
Angela yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the breakfast club.
We have author and pastor Devone Franklin in the building. Yee.
For some people, I will say this, they feel like

(34:55):
in a relationship you have to go through so many
things to get to that point. Like you have to
go through if you've been together for a while, the lying,
they're cheating, they're breaking up, they're getting back together for
your relationship to be strong. How do you know when
it's time to say okay, it's time to walk away,
this isn't working, or it's time for us to work
on each other, because this can be rectified. You know,
I get this question a lot, and I wish that

(35:17):
the process with men was less messy. You know, a
lot of it has to do with our brokenness and
a lot of it has to do with how we're raised.
So what you're are articulating is a truth of many
relationships that there's a lot of mess before you can
get to a place where everything is good. What I
will say is that sometimes the only thing a man
will understand, and this dog and a man will understand

(35:39):
is pain and the pain of the absence of the
woman that he loves. And sometimes that work gott to
walk away, you know what I'm saying. Sometimes women stay
too close and you gotta step away. And let me
tell you, the man who really has the master and
is in touch with the master in themselves, when the
woman they love steps away, it's a catalyst for change.

(36:02):
And so that absence, and this is one of the
things a lot of times in my experience, women come
to me for counseling. They don't want to do this,
They don't want to take a step away and I say, listen,
I know you love him, right, but sometimes the best
way to love him is from afar. I love you
so much that I can't stay here and be treated
less than I know I'm worth. Now, you say in
the book, I've been in the church my whole life,
and I can say that no one, and I mean
no one teaches men how to deal with our urges.

(36:24):
It's kind of mind blowing. We can talk about the
fruits of the spirit, how to pray, how to preach,
and how to sing praises, but rarely do we get
real talk about how to deal with the dog. Yeah. Yeah.
When I confronted my father for cheating back in the day,
and you know, my father said, my father looked at
me dead. My eye goes you only got one girlfriend?
He said, no way, he said, one day you gonna understand. Wow.

(36:44):
So in my mind he played, he started making me
feel like something was wrong with me, Yeah, because I
only had one girl. Yeah, And then and just expand
on that. Then you also talk about your own transparency,
and you said, after I marry Megan, I caught myself
looking at another woman. It was very casual, and I
almost did it without things. Then I caught myself and thought,
what are you doing. I had no desire for this woman.
I was not interested in her in the least, but

(37:05):
I found myself checking her out almost instinctively. Let's talk
about let's talk this is really important. So the first part,
you know, I was raising the church. In the church,
a lot of times there's a culture of suppression because
we don't talk about. Okay, everybody gets horny, everybody has urges.

(37:28):
How do you deal with that? No matter how holy,
no matter how safe saft, if I feel the Holy
he goes any of us may be, it doesn't stop
what happens in our flesh. So in the church a
lot of times it's just like, don't talk about it.
But anything we don't talk about it's gonna grow. So
I wanted to say, listen, let's take the veil. Let's
start speaking this truth. And so the whole point about Megan,
you know, which blew me away. It's like, hey, I thought,
oh I'm getting married. It's gonna put the dog to sleep.

(37:50):
For a couple months, I was good, but then all
of a sudden, I talk about that in the book,
you know, I started looking at this other woman. I'm like,
what's wrong with me? I don't want to be being
unfaithful to my wife. So I first had to get
to the place where I was like, yo, I got
this thing in me. I wish I didn't have this dog.
It's here. Now what am I going to do about it? Now?
Once I acknowledge, I can actually begin the process of
mastery so that when a thought or feeling comes on me,

(38:12):
I don't you know, get crazy, I'm like, okay, cool,
it's there, but I'm not going to let that thought grow.
The guilt of it, like knowing you did something wrong,
you bring that energy into the house and then you
start looking at her side with it's like what is
she doing? Rush? It's us? Yeah, yeah, no, that that guilt.
But but this is but I think you know, Charlottagne,
you're you're at a point where you are focused on mastery,

(38:33):
and a lot of men yet aren't there. And that's
why I wanted to write this book to say, hey,
you know what we have to become to it. We
have to get to a place where that guilt bothers us.
So first of all, it's having enough awareness where you
begin to say, hey, if somebody was doing this to
my mother, or my sister or my daughter, would I
accept it as a man. And if the answer is no,

(38:53):
then as men, we should not perpetuate that same pain
on someone else's sister, mother, or daughter, right because that
guilt is so powerful When we love somebody and we've
seen that hurt in their eyes, we never want to
see it again, and that guilt can be convicting. Oh you,
when you started doing your work, you know, was gonna
wait until marriage for sex didn't when I got in

(39:14):
senior year in high school, and I pretty much was
not celibate for about four or five years, you know,
while I was in college, and then coming out of college,
I decided to be celibate. But even though I was celibate,
I still wasn't a good dater. And I really didn't
start doing my work probably until my late twenties when
I had this vision, you know, it was literally like
this vision from God where I was at the altar

(39:34):
of my wedding and the minister said, looked behind you,
And when I looked behind me down the aisle where
all the women I had dated, but they were all
cut open and their bodies were littered down the aisle,
and God said, do you think it was worth all
of their hearts to get here? And that vision my
late twenties. It startled me so much. I said, I've

(39:56):
got to do it. I've got to put more intention
in my dating. If I'm not serious, it's about her,
I've got to tell her. What's interesting is this is
the celibacy, right you said, actually helped you flourish your career,
absolutely because you're focused and discipline. If a man can
get disciplined in this area of sex, there is nothing
the man cannot do. Now, I want to ask you
about pornography, because you address this in the book, and um,

(40:19):
you feel that pornography is harmful to relationships, and some
people clearly do get addicted to porn and that's harmful.
But do you think that casually watching porn man listen
shouldn't be done. I don't think it should be done
because in the book, I have a whole thing about
the one you feed, and so within us you have
to feed the master of the dog. I call vice
dog food. I call virtue soul food. And I would

(40:41):
put porn in the category of dog food because that's
what it is. It's vice. And also I have this fascinating. Uh.
You know, research that I came across about Japan and
Japan they the pornography problem is so extreme in Japan
that when they bring men and women, young men and
women together in a social setting, they don't even engage
one of those. So as a result, the birth rate

(41:02):
is declining because they are so fixated on these fantasy
worlds that that's how they are becoming accustomed to realistic
dolls and everything. Yeah, so I do believe that that
porn is dangerous. I do believe that even a casual Yeah,
it's like, yeah, you eat, you eat bad food. Oh,
you know, well once in a while. No, I think
that it can be a slippery slope. And the reality is,
of course everybody deals with that differently. But I would

(41:24):
say as a rule, that's why I put in the
book that is something to be really looked at and
to be managed so that you don't get into a
situation where it manages you. So you can manage it,
you just can't overdo it, like is it because I
think some people learn a lot of tricks from porn.
But here's the thing, but this is also where the
dog dog runs wild, because you do you look at
something that is not real. Big penises not real. You

(41:48):
can't do it. So a lot of times you see
these images and you think, oh, I'll learned some tricks.
But what it does is it creates an unrealistic expectation
of what intimacy really looks like, and that can be destructive,
especially when you're trying to practice that intimacy with the
Now I was a sex has a sex that's happening.
What about masturbation? Can you talk about talk about that

(42:09):
as well? I talk about that as well. It's something
you got it you really got to look at. Because
again I put that in the category of feeding the dog, right,
and anytime the dog is well fed and makes it
harder for the master and a man to be strong enough.
That masturvation was healthy. Listen, I'm not as tranquilizing, okay
when at the time psychologist, but that's why I put

(42:31):
manage it. You know, everybody has to wrestle with that thing. Everybody.
I wrestle with it, definitely. I'm not saying that my
wife man with me. I wrestle with it. Transparency, truth,
I love it really wins that match. We don't want
to know, Angela. We don't want to know the truth

(42:51):
about men. Go get this book, man. I think it's
very important for us brothers to do the work. Thank you,
my brother, my man. I take you to d von
Frankly for joining us. Non move. We got rumors on
the way. It's the breakfast club. Go morning all right, morning,
everybody is stej mv Angela yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
are the breakfast club. Yes, indeed, now shout to the
Vaughn Franklin for joining us this morning. Yes, yes, I'm

(43:13):
sure he pissed off a lot of guys this morning.
They ride and they call with their ladies like, all
men ain't dogs. I don't know what you're talking about.
He's not saying the men are dogs. He just uses
the metaphor of how a dog trainer trains dogs for
you to train yourself. Yeah, we all have that nature.
You can either submit to your higher nature, which is
the God, and you will submit to your lord nature,
which is the devil, and you a dog and you
whatever you want to call it. What do you mean training?

(43:34):
I missed it because I was in Atlanta. What do
you mean when he said, basically, you know, all us trash,
all us trash ass dudes. Trash ass dude, we used
to be. We gotta train ourselves not to be that.
That's all right. Basically mastered the dog within you. So,
in other words, instead of operating on lust and desire,
operate from a higher place. Wild talking about not masturbating.
But he said he masterbated, Yeah, he said, he said

(43:58):
wild because you know, when you out of town, you
ain't got your move with you. That's the only way
to train. You gotta trank a lot of the dog.
You know what I'm saying. You got you gotta trank
a lot of that dog. Man. Well, everybody's circumstances different,
and so that's everybody's circumstances different. No, what circumstance, Oh,
it's different. You know what, Why why do you think
masturbation was wrong? You gotta read the book. Read the book.

(44:20):
He just talked about a slippery slope. That's funny. That's funny,
love a slippery slope. All right. Well, and I did
have Divine Franklin doing my book club yesterday, so that
was dope. A lot of people have some great questions today.
I'm doing Angie Thomas is on the Come Up book.
I've been reading a lot of books lately, and she
wrote that Hate You Give, which got adapted into a movie,

(44:41):
and they did just announce that her book on the
Come Up is actually going to be a movie as well.
So congratulations to her next. So I'll be with her tonight,
and I think there's still a few tickets available if
anybody wants to come to that. All right, Well we
got from well we have the Rules coming up next.
Oh man, Yes, we are going to be talking about
um well, I was gonna talk about that. But a
TV show that you guys love that they cancel, but

(45:03):
there is a finale that's a movie, and we have
that trailer for you. Okay, we'll get into that next.
Keeping locked it the Breakfast Club, Good morning wanted. Everybody
is dj mv Angela, Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are
the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Just talk
Liam Neeson. Listen, just oh reports reports club. But there's

(45:27):
a lot of backlash for Liam Needson right now. He
got Donkey of the Day yesterday. In addition to that,
he has all red carpet interviews canceled for his movie
co Pursuit that he's been promoting none of the cast
is going to actually be doing any red carpet interviews
for that movie. And that's a decision that was made
by the film studio, which is Lion's Gate. Why the
whole cast got to suffer because Liam Neeson stupid. I

(45:48):
don't know. I guess they feel like this story is
just too big. It's kind of overshadowing the actual movie. Now,
now the original co pursuit the original. What he said
originally was this, she told me she had been raped,
but she handled the situation of the rape. I asked,
did you know who? I wasn't known what color they?

(46:09):
She shut it was a black person. I have an
open tourne areas with a cash, hoping i'd be approached
by someone. I'm ashamed to say that. I did it
for maybe a week, hoping some black bastard would come
out of a pub and have a call at me
about something, you know, so I could kill him. Who

(46:31):
That's awful. And then yesterday we played this cup and
yesterday was also what would have been Trayvon Martin's birthday,
and that's yeah, that's what sucked about it. Treyvonn would
have been twenty four yesterday and Trayvonne was killed by
a fat Bathard named George Demman who was looking at
all black men the way Liam was. He was looking
at all black men one way, and he wanted to
murder a black man, and that could have been God forbid,
something would happen. He would have came across a black man,

(46:52):
he would have ended up killing him. But according to
said what he had to say. Now, he's been trying
to do what seems like damage control. Right. He went
on Good Morning America and said this, I'm not racist.
I just said in Irish or a scott or a
brig or a Lithuanian, I would I know I would
have fed the same effect. I was trying to show
honor to my stand up from my dear friend and

(47:15):
this terrible medieval fashion. Alright. He goes on to talk
about what would have happened. Do you think he actually
would have done a black man who had nothing to do? Yeah,
I know that was my feeling that I did want
to lie shut and I admit that. And it's a
learning curve. But what are you hoping that people will

(47:35):
learn from you making these statements to talk to open up,
to talk about these things you know, we all pretend
we're all kind of, you know, politically correct. I mean
in this country. It's the same in my own country too.
You sometimes just scratch the surface and you discovered this
racism and that's fair. Yeah, I mean, I respect honesty.

(47:57):
We all have to unlearn to be as we have learned.
I just don't know if you can. I don't know
if you can unlearn racism. I think that it is
deep routed. But I think once you it's so many
different things that you hear about somebody else, and then
when you actually learn and speak to them, things can change.
I think this ignited the whole discussion on Twitter because
Terry Crew said, I believe that every person on earth
is capable of the greatest good or unspeakable evil. Liam

(48:20):
is just describing his fork in the road. Now people
got upset. Why LEI was one person that said, na, na, Nope,
Liam is trash. We're losing brothers all the time because
of this proverbial fork, not fam And then Terry Crew said,
what are we going to do? And while they said,
I know what we're not gonna do, Terry, so there
you go, what are we not going to do? Go
out and kill black people that are innocent, Oh okay,

(48:43):
and excuse and excuse people's behavior and the words that
they say that could be harmful to innocent people. Yeah,
but you know, when it comes to stereotyping, when it
comes to the profile, and when it comes to the biases,
when it comes to pre judging, a lot of us
we have that mentality because of what we've been taught
over the is and we've never had a conversation with
the people that we feel this way about. So what
if you have a conversation with the person and you're like, damn,

(49:04):
I was seeing this group of people in the wrong way.
Liam said he would deliberately go into black areas in
the city looking to be set upon. He said it
shocked him and it hurt him, and he did see
how he went to go see a priest. So yeah,
so there's no he can never change. Ever, I think
I've not changed, you know, listen, we hope about him,

(49:24):
but I think people could change change. But that was
just an awful thing to say, especially because there's so
many innocent black men that have nothing to do with
anything that are getting killed. Oh no, I could put
that energy out there that sounds crazy. I agree with
that totally, right. I don't know. I don't know about racism,
but people can grow in the ball. All right, let's
switch gears a little bit and let's talk about Being

(49:45):
Mary Jane. Now. I know you guys love that show.
People were very upset when it was canceled. Well, BT
has released a trailer because you know they're doing the
finale as a movie. Oh like a baby it's time.

(50:10):
You're excited to see the baby being married Jane movie.
Nobody you never watch Being Mary Jane. I ever watched
Mary You guys we're on it. Well, not really, but
they mentioned us non drop on a clues bam for
Being Mary Jane BT. I just I just never watched it.
I know people enjoy it, but I never watched it.
All right, Well, people are excited, FYI. I'm excited all

(50:31):
right now? Cardie B? How much does it cost to
be Cardi B? While she revealed it in a Twitter
video that she spends about two hundred and fifty thousand
and three hundred thousand dollars a month for her lifestyle
check it out. No, what I hate? I hate when
celebrities do something very extravagant by something very luxurious. There's
people in the comments that you could have donated that
all we going backwards, who could have done this and

(50:53):
that with your money? And it's like, who are you
go to tell people what to do with their hard
work and ass money? First of all, do you know
the irs? Out of every check that you make, they
automatically take forty five percent of your check. Then, like
an artist like me and a lot of rappers that
I know, they literally take care of their whole family.
On top of that, my bills is like I'll say

(51:14):
about three hundred thousand, two hundred and fifty thousand every
single months. Now I'm just giving you the information about
how much she ends up having to spend on taking
care of her family every single month. That's a lot
of money and responsibility. You know what, though, it's a
good idea sometimes to put your family on payroll because
then it's more manageable. It is a write off, and

(51:38):
if you're giving them money anywhere employee, then it's kind
of like a steady check and they can't really ask
you for They shouldn't ask you for more than that
if you put them on payroll. Because I've worked places
where people had their family members on payroll. So just
a good idea that she's right between security, between traveling
between nannies, between stylists, between employees, and between employees, between managers,
spreading out a business between Yeah, she spends a lot

(52:00):
of money, and I would say Cardy B Is probably
one of the people that I know that tries to
do things like she tries to fly regular all the time,
and she gets noticed all the time. She tries not
to do private. She tries, she said, but the baby,
she does end up having to fly private a lot. Yeah,
she posted about that. She said she has a publicist, stylist,
makeup artist, security, baby said, a business management, she said,

(52:21):
to have a baby. So it's a must to take
a private jet when she moves. When I'm required to
work in La Just on rent is about thirty thousand
a month drivers, and that's not including rent and mortgage
of homes in New York and Atlanta and investment properties. Yeah,
don't get a twisted Cardy got a lot of investments.
And I've been talking to her about her investments and
we've been doing some things. But yeah, Cardy got a
lot of investment. She knows, she's not stupid. At all.
Don't tell me what to do with my goddamn money.

(52:43):
There you go. Okay, this is my bread. All right, check.
I'm the one that got to pay the taxes on
this money. Right, Okay, this is mine. I'm gonna do
what I want with it, period. All right. Well lim
angela yee. And that is your rumor report. All right,
thank you. I ain't got nothing, all right, shout alike,
Yes here, given that, donkey, listen, man, let's have a
conversation about the male fragile ego to males ego, A

(53:05):
soul fragile and Calvin Wilkins fell victim to a fragile ego.
All right, we'll talk about it four after that. We'll
get to that next. Keep a locktic to breakfast club
the morning the breakfast club, Your mornings will never be
the same. You don't need to snow to have an
adult snow day. Had to eBay this winter and make
the most of your money shopping eBay deals with our
best price guarantee plus free shipping on millions of items.

(53:28):
If it's happening on your adult snow day, it's happening
on eBay. I was born to donkey. It's the Donkey
of the Death. Don't get day that Charlemagne Devil breakfast club. Yes,

(53:52):
Donkey today for Wednesday, February six goals to thirty eight
year old Calvin Wilkins of Medfifth, Tennessee. Now, Calvin was
not with Captives past day because him and his compadres
decided to have a super Bowl party. I can't lie.
I enjoy a good super Bowl party food. It's super
Bowl parties. It's very underrated. Okay, when we discuss great
holiday eating, we don't really discuss super Bowl food. Maybe

(54:13):
because we don't look at the super bowls. We don't
look at super Bowl Sunday as an actual national holiday,
but it is the unofficial holiday in America for some.
In the combination of beef, a turkey, meatballs, chicken wings, nachos,
man those made for some damn good super Bowl eats. Okay,
my wife, My wife didn't make that this year because
we were at my daughter's cheer leading competition this Sunday.
But I really enjoy when she makes my favorite super

(54:36):
Bowl foods. I love my wife's cooking in general. Okay,
there's three people on this planet whose food tastes different
simply because it's made with an ingredient you can't buy anywhere,
and that ingredient is unconditional love. You only get that
ingredient in your food from your wife, your mom, and
your grandma, your big grandmother, your mama's mama. Okay, those
three right there, I got a season and called love

(54:57):
that is better than lours. All right, basil, reagano, salt, pepper,
parsley bear, all those are great seasonings. But nothing beats
that seasoning called unconditional love, which can only come from
your wife, mom or your mom's mom. And now I
want to ask the married men in the room a question.
Who aren't here married me? Okay? And those out there

(55:18):
listening feel free to talk back to the radio. Is
there a patriarchy when it comes to how food is
served in your crib? Meaning if your wife cooks? Okay,
as a man, do you expect for your plate to
get fixed first by your wife or do you make
your own plate? How does it go down for you?
In my house, it depends. Usually my wife decides who
eats first. Usually if the kids are there, the kids
are get their plate first because they need to eat first.

(55:39):
All Sometimes it's me. It doesn't matter if we don't
really care. We don't really stress it. As a man,
you don't expect her to make your plate and give
it feed you first, Eddie, what about you either or
the other matter? Same here. I got three kids in
the house, so I expect for their plates to be
made first. Let the kids eat. I can fix my
own plate, but I do prefer for my wife to
make my plate only because when a woman fixes your
plate is organized better. Okay, it's just to write amount

(56:01):
of everything on the plate to plate is rashing out properly,
with the proper portions of everything. That is true. I
can't describe it. But when you have had your plate
fixed by your mom, wife or grandma, your mama's mama,
you know what I'm talking about. Now I want to
ask them in the room another question. Yes, if your
wife or girlfriend fix somebody else to play the food
before you, would you feel away? Yes, you would feel

(56:21):
if everyone wasn't my kids or my family man. Yeah, yes,
it was just some dude that's in you fix Tony
a plate before you. Yea, I might feel a little
way hetty. Would you feel away? Yeah? If you was
making your man a plate with you, if you if
you was fixing food. Would you make sure your man
got sirved first? I think in my head if I
would answered that, I would, But I don't know what
might happen in real life. I might going to get

(56:42):
my mama plate first, or outside your mom I'm gonna say,
just another guy? Was there another random guy? Where are
we super Bowl party? Step brother? Let's just say a
step brother. I don't know if I would think about
it that all right, but I think my instinct would
be to do his plate first. Okay, Well, Calvin Wilkins
from Memphis, Tennessee. He did feel the way and he

(57:04):
made an emotional decision. And what did you? Uncle? H'all
always tell you kids move off strategy, not emotion, because
when you move off from motion, things like this happened.
Let's go to Fox thirteen Memphis for the report. Police.
Thirty eight year old Calvin Wilkins was taken into custody.
He was charged with the murder of his stepbrother, twenty
eight year old Isaaca Powell. According to the arrest report,
wilkins wife turned him in. She says Wilkins was having

(57:27):
a Super Bowl party at the house in Whitehaven. She
told police her husband got upset with her after she
made someone else a plate of food. She says Wilkins
became quote verbally abusive, so everyone but the two victims
left the party. Wilkins wife told police she received voicemails
from the two victims. A little after ten thirty Sunday nine.

(57:47):
She says she heard her husband's voice, a victim begged
for their life, and then gunshots. Wilkins is also charged
with attempted murder after police say he shot Sierra Storn's
multiple times. Her family tells me she's on life support
and has no brain activity right now. What, Yes, Calvin
Wilkins shot up to place because his wife fixed somebody

(58:11):
else a plate before him. The male ego, the male
ego is a fragile package, and I feel sorry for
women who are in a relationship with men who have
not done the work on themselves. To have a highest
sense of self. Knowledge yourself is essential for survival and
purpose on this planet. It gives you a sense of
confidence that guys like Calvin Wilkins clearly lack. Okay, my brother,
you are in jail right now. Charge the first degree murder,

(58:31):
criminal attempt of first degree murder, employment of a firearm
during a dangerous felony and being a convicted felon in
possession of a handgun, all because your wife made another man,
your step brother, a play of wings and some nachos.
I'm telling you, male supremacy, the sense of entitlement that
i'm that I'm the man, you're my woman, so I
deserve to have this power over you. That's what caused
Calvin to do this. Okay, brothers be front and like

(58:52):
they're so strong, like they're so tough, Like we don't
give a damn about a thing until a small change
in our ecosystem happened. Something as simple as you're a
woman fixing a plate for another man, your stepbrother. Okay,
we'll set them off now. I'm no therapist. I'm just
somebody who enjoys therapy and I'm observing the situation from afar.
Calvin selfers from low self esteem. So when you have

(59:12):
a fragile ego and fragile self esteem, when it comes
to people you hold dear to you, like your woman,
you can have a lot of mental insecurity. And when
you have that mental insecurity, man, something as simple as
your wife fixing the man another plate can cause you
to make a very very very terrible emotional decision like
Calvin did. Listen to my brothers, we all feel insecure
at different times. Our self esteem can take a hit

(59:32):
every now and then, especially when it comes to our ladies.
But here's the thing. Just express yourself. Okay. Yeah, not
not in the way Calvin did. Okay, Calvin could have
tucked those emotions for the moment of pulled his wife
to the side and simply say, yo, man, you hurt
my feelings fixing their man's plate before mind. Okay, if
she really loves you, she will understand. All right. It's
very important that people know how to talk to their
booze their babes. Okay, it's very useful to talk about

(59:53):
your feelings, my brothers. Don't be afraid to express your
feelings to your woman and double check your own feelings
and share your emotions so you don't make the mistakes
like Calvin did. Don't be a hard rock when you
really are a gym baby boy, because being a hard
rock with a fragile ego in the case of Calvin,
will take you from being mad at your wife for
not making you a plate, the possibly being in prison

(01:00:13):
having someone eat off yours. Please give Calvin Wilkins the
biggest all he should read Divine Franklin's book The Truth
About Men and What Men and Women Need to Know. Well,
I think we can send it to him a lot
of time. I don't think that. I don't think he's
gonna be in a relationship with a woman for a long, long,
long long time. But he can learn to treat somebody

(01:00:34):
in jail with the respect that they deserve. Now he'll
be serving other people meals. Oh it's somebody gonna be
eating off his plate. You ain't even gotta worry about that.
He gonna be fixing some plates in jail. All right,
all right, all right, thank you for that. Donkey to day.
All right, up next ask ye eight hundred five eight
five one on five one if you need relationship advice
at any type of advice, call ye right now. Is

(01:00:55):
to breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast club. Ej envy angela, yee, Charlomagne. Guy,
we are the breakfast club at time for asking? He Hello,
who's this big? Hey, Shanny? What's your question for ye?
Should I take my baby daddy deck? Okay? Why are
you not together? We're not together because he recently cheated

(01:01:18):
on me a year ago and I was pregnant with
our third child. He ended up having a possibility baby,
So you don't know yet if that's his baby the
next Yeah, we don't. Yeah, we don't know yet. And
have you been in contact with this woman? She always
contacted me to get a hold of him, and I'm like,

(01:01:40):
I'm not, I'm not in y'all situation. She done. She
tried to put a restraint in order on us. Just
she's been doing like weird, Like I don't talk to her.
I don't even know why she tried to put a
restraint in order on us. We went to court, the
justice looking at her like, bitches, you crazy. You need
to He's like, you need to put a restraint on her,
on us, on her, and I'm like, I don't do

(01:02:01):
all that? All right? Sheannon said, let's back up for
a second. So you and your baby father are together? No,
we not together, But do you all live together? Yeah?
We still live together, So you are kind of I mean,
and you still love him? Yeah? I still love him.
He's only i've been with We've been together for almost
nine years. But now there's gonna be some messiness if

(01:02:23):
this is indeed his baby. Now, let's as far as
the other woman, right, you can't be mad at her.
She's pregnant with a child on the way that that
child is his, and he's not communicating already had the baby.
Oh she had it. So there's been no opportunity tests
or anything. Yeah, they just rankfully. She sent like some
people to my house with these court orders and they

(01:02:43):
just recently got a test done. The test should be
back here in March. We'll find out in March. So
part of what you want to do is is it
depended also on whether or not this is his child.
I just don't know if I should take him back
perial like that. It's from her, I was pregnant and
he went on did that. But the sad thing is,
it's like, I know why he went on and cheated

(01:03:04):
because I'm crazy. Baby. Listen, don't blame a man for
cheating on you and not being honest. That's not your fault. Okay,
he could have broken up with you and said it's
not working. You can't excuse the fact that he's not
your fault. Ever, you can't say I understand why he
did it. He's wrong, Okay. True. So don't say, oh,

(01:03:24):
I can understand why he cheated. Don't let him brainwash
you that way. But oh no, it's a simple factor
like I did from real crazy Like if he just
worked out, I'll probably would have when cheated too. He
didn't brainwash me or not. But Shannon, I'm gonna say,
what did you do? I just gotta know. Oh, I
stabbed him. Oh my god, this is a toxic relationship.

(01:03:48):
This cheating, that's stabbing, this violence. Oh, you're doing anything
like as far as the fact that you have kids
to raise together with therapy, like family therapy, therapy with him.
That's what his mom told us to do. But you're
just not Shannon. That's what you have to say. That's
what you have to do. Y'all got kids involved. You
guys are violent, there's affairs, there's things going on, and
you want to make sure in the future that these

(01:04:09):
things don't happen and learn how to deal with your anger, right.
And so the first step I would say for you,
before you decide if you're taking him back or not,
is for you to both go to therapy and find
out what some of the issues that you have with
each other and how to deal with those issues. Better
work on that before you decide what decision you're going
to make. But you have to do that, all right, right,
for the sake of your children. Do that. You're so hard,

(01:04:32):
I don't even know. Listen, the things that are beneficial
to you are not always easy, right, and I promise
you it's going to help you as a person, as
a mom, as a potential wife. You have to heal
that first. And whether or not you guys end up together,
this would be great for you, all right, deep art
you all right, So don't make any decisions now, but

(01:04:52):
make the decision to go to therapy. That's the only
one you need to make. Okay, all right, Shannon, please
check back in and let me know what happens. We
want to monitor your progress. Thank you. Okay, don't stab anyone.
I'm done with that angry like I don't know when
I get pregnant, I get angry like goodn't is gracious?

(01:05:14):
All right, mama, geezh, all right, ask ye eight hundred
five A five one O five one. If you need
relationship advice, here e now was the breakfast club. Good
morning morning, everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
We are the breakfast club. We are in the middle
of asking ye, we have Trey on the line, trae,
good morning, good morning. What's your question for you? Bro?

(01:05:34):
So I'll go into the DNB and I see it bad.
Don't come to the door, and I'm like, yo, hey, hey,
what's up? That's good? So I get her number and
then I checked and I called and fairly respond So
I'm like, why are you giving your number if you
aren't interrupt? Why are you approaching with the hey, hey,
yo yo? Why are you approaching like that? Though? Bro?

(01:05:56):
She responded with my head that was in my head.
I was my life, she responded. At first, no, no, no,
I didn't say that a live I'm just like Bram,
like wow, look at this. So I posed a course
like a gentleman and saying, hey, you know, hey, how
are you doing? My name? You know, you know you
have a boy from you know, the still and she
gave me her number and I checked it. Maybe I

(01:06:18):
don't know. A couple of days later called she responding
every once in a while, and then she respond like
maybe eight hours later, and then after a while just
got like drop just like well trade maybe she mess
somebody else or maybe she you know, it's just not
that interested. What are you saying on these text messages?
And when you call, hey, how are you doing U?

(01:06:39):
You know, just are you interested? When you're available, we've
got some time we can go out, and you go out.
Then I get to know each other, you know, your
basic stuff. And she'll come back with, oh, well, you
know I worked all day, I'm busy, or I was
gonna spend some time my time. I'm like, okay, well yeah,
trade she's clearly not interested. But you know, nothing wrong
with checking in every now and then. But I wouldn't
have too high expectations for that, and I do want

(01:07:01):
to get some advice. UM, don't just say hey, when
you have some time, let's do something. It has something specific, like, hey,
such and such has got a concert here on Thursday,
and I have tickets if you want to go, you know,
I'd love for you to come. I look bit of
a comedy show. If you're interested, you know, I'd like
for you to join me. I mean I did, I
went through the test. Okay, I don't understand the game.

(01:07:24):
Well it's not a game. A game is if she
really was responding, but maybe something happened. You don't even
know her or what's going on in her life. It
could be anything. Oh that's a good point, So just
take the loss. If she's interested, you know whatever. If
she's not, it just is what it is. There's nothing
you could do about it. But it might not necessarily
be a game. You don't think so, No, I mean
you don't know what's the problem. You don't know if

(01:07:46):
she's met somebody else. She's stating there. I mean maybe
she thought maybe she would be and she changed her mind.
We're allowed to do that. Just don't send no passive
aggressive text messages. We can't stand those. Oh damn it,
because that's annoying. That'll make me. Never hit somebody back
when you do, well, why did you give me your number?
Or you know, well I've been trying to reach. If

(01:08:06):
you're not interested, just say so. I don't like when
people do that. Just be polite. Just always be polite,
Always be nice. If you do the side of hitter
up and just be chill, because that's a red flag
when somebody's already irritated and I don't even know you,
But why I give the number empty interested? Don't give
that fall you know interested. I mean just say, nah,
you know I'm not interested initially, Chait. Maybe she at

(01:08:29):
first wasn't. Then she ain't like your text messages. None
of my all my text was good, none too bad,
until like maybe a week later when I see that
you're responding eight hours or the next day later, and
I'm like, Hey, what's up with these games? Okay? Yeah,
that's it? You cut off? Man, Hey, what's up with
these games? I don't even know you already gotta issue.

(01:08:49):
You gotta just be chilled. You sound a little crazy track.
You can't say stuff like that. I'm scared now. I
think you're stalker and I gotta change my number. Okay,
I couldn't, It's gracious, all right, up with these games?
You don't know what happened. What if somebody in my
family died? I'm working on. You don't know what's going

(01:09:10):
on in somebody's life. You know my child got her
to say, hey, you couldn't get to it right now? Jase?
All right, ask ye eight hundred five eighty five, one
on five one. We got rumors on the way. Yes,
let's talk about twenty one Savage. We have another update
on what's going on with his situation as far as immigration. Um,
we'll tell you what he has to say now, all right,
we'll get into that next. Keeping locked this to breakfast Club.

(01:09:30):
Good morning the breakfast Club. This is the rum of
report with Angela Ye breakfast Club isn't an amazing the
things that become front page news now on CNN, the
headline is Corey Booker says he's in a relationship quote,

(01:09:51):
I got a boo. We sat down with Corey Booker,
had a pretty long conversation because he announced his he's
going to be running for president in twenty twenty. This
is our first time being able to sit down and
talk to him about what kind of policies he wants
to implement, what his stand is going to be. And
at the end of the interview, Charlemagne did ask him
about whether or not he's gonna get married. He said,

(01:10:14):
you know, well, let me play it for you. You
would only be like you'd be like the third president.
I think I think, first of all, there's two more
years until I might swear he might get married some time.
I think it didn't existence my girlfriends might listen to this,
So you don't want to, Okay, come about to say
you don't want to marry somebody. Now when she saw
getting hot you might become president, she might just want
you for that Nola, before I declare president, I'm dating

(01:10:37):
somebody that's really special. So oh yeah, so Corey Booker
got a boot? Who's booto? Ye Rozario Dawson. Okay, that's
in the article too. Since people think that I make
things up tell secret information. Yeah, I saw a trash
article on the route or that this dude name Stephen
Crockett Junior wrote and says send it to Corey Booker

(01:10:58):
has a girlfriend, Now can we stop talking about his
dating life? And he was referencing our breakfast club interview
and saying, how you know, nobody wants to talk about
policies and voter suppression or things that are important. You
want to talk about the relationship. That was literally one
question a forty minute at the very end, at the
very end, So clearly somebody didn't watch the whole interview.
Stephen Crockett Junior think that, But that is he would

(01:11:20):
be the only third bachelor, like you said, to be
elected to the White House. And that is something that
is a story in itself because for some reason people
feel like in order to be in the White House,
you have to be married. And I liked what he
had to say about that as well. And we also
did discuss why your personal life and things like that,
unless it's something questionable that you've done, shouldn't even matter
when it comes to your running for office, And we

(01:11:41):
discussed all of that. Stephen Stephen Crockett Junior from the
Root said nobody us only seen the clip and that
happens a lot, yes, And he said, nobody should be
talking about Corey Brooker's dating life unless of course he's
dating Rihanna, because she do anything contradicted. So that's why
I say the article's trash. He contradicted this whole stuffs, Rihanna.
Did you read the whole article? Yes, of course, So

(01:12:02):
he probably didn't listen to the interview. He just heard
CNN interviews, I mean the CNN story. All right, twenty
one savage, Now let's discuss this. His people have just
put out a statement and they believe that the motives
for ice are corrupt. They said. Many have speculated as
to possible ulterior motives for his arrest and detention, including
that he released music five days prior to his arrest

(01:12:23):
by Ice, which included new lyrics condemning the behavior of
immigration officials for their detention of children at the border.
And that's the song a lot. But I can't imagine
my kids stuck at the border. The fleece still in
the water. People was innocent, kidna get lords, all right,
So he had been through some things. So I can't
imagine my kids stuck at the border. So I guess

(01:12:43):
twenty one savage under what his residency in the United States,
because he's been here since he was what seven years old? Five,
or he's eligible to seek cancelation of removal from an
immigration judge. And you know, I've spoken a lot about
the dreamers and the kids who have grown up in
this country and have been here since they were young,
and this is all they know, and we have to
make sure that they're able to stay here legally, so

(01:13:07):
they feel like in front of an immigration judge, he
would be able to say. And he did apply in
twenty seventeen for a U visa, so that's why they
had his address and that information as well. And man
got three kids here, that man paid taxes here, and
man does a lot for the community in Atlanta. He
went through all a grade school, Like, there's absolutely no
reason for twenty one Savage to be in the current

(01:13:28):
situation that he's in now to keep him in concrated,
like he actually committed a crime. Now, yes, according to
his manager, he's been spending twenty three hours a day
and lock up in his only communications ten minute phone
costs what he's like, he didn't even commit a crime. Like,
it's not like they are arrested him because he committed
a murder or some type of a soul like he
was a random traffic stop. You know, it's interesting because
there's so many people that are being detained in this

(01:13:50):
similar fashion, and now we're all aware of it because
of twenty one Savage, and it's been an ongoing situation
that's been happening here in the United States. Twenty One's gonna,
you know, end up being a post child for this,
the same way Meek is for prison reform. So, like
I said, always say, sometimes things happen to you so
God can work through you. Now, Shala made me sell
you post the Boondocks comics is back right, and you

(01:14:11):
posted a message from Aaron McGruder. Did these for fun
and to see if I still could, so tell us
the backstory of that. Oh, Aaron mcgruder's back doing the
Boondocks comic script. That was the first time Aaron has
done it in like a decade or so. That was informative.
I mean, Aaron's my guy. I thought the genius. I mean,
I would give us some everybody. But he said it.

(01:14:33):
He said it in the caption. He felt like doing
some Boondocks sketches, you know, if you realize, if you know,
he stopped doing the sketches because he felt like he
didn't have anything anything else to say. So I guess
now he has a lot to say because of everything
that we've been seeing in the past couple of years,
you know, due to the Trump administration. So um, I
put those those Boondocks comic scripts out yesterday because Aaron
asked me to. And I think Aaron is a genius.

(01:14:54):
I ask my guy not support him in anything that
he does. But and last thing, r Kelly, he has
announced that he's touring. So he's going to be going
on a tour. Ain't in America, I know that much, Australia,
New Zealand and Sri Lanka. Yeah, I figured that he
do know they got the internet, right, Let's see what
we can happen. Some promoter was to pay for it
already if they announced the dates, and he posted that

(01:15:16):
on his Instagram page new tour Alert. Didn't I hear
something like Philly bann him from coming to the city
or something like that. Oh, I don't know. I didn't
see that. All right, Well I'm in ye and that's
your rumor report. All right, Philly, you feel you can
just ban them out? You just you can never come
to the city, no fly zone. I think all states
that stought with the letter piece should ban Oca. You
give it yo, you're fast man, You're just the state

(01:15:40):
of the city. And Philadelphi, Pennsylvania's pep, so they definitely
should be you're quick, You're quick, all right, thank you?
Ye up next to People's Choice mix, I revote, We'll
see you later. Everybody else People's Choice mixes up next
to Scar Morning, everybody in cdj Envy and Angela Yee,
Scharlomagne the guy, we all the breakfast club. Black History Month?

(01:16:01):
What are we doing when we representing today? Charleman Today?
In Anna Bob Marley's born day, we turned to a
new Black History Month legend who once started a movie
called I Am Legend. Remember when Will Smith played the
character Robert Neville, and Robert had to school Anna Montez
on the greatness of Bob Marley because Anna had zero clue. Well,
if you don't remember, or if you don't know, here's

(01:16:23):
your chance to learn. Will Smith is Robert Neville waxing
poetically about the late grade Bob Marley. The Breakfast Club
presents a new Black History Month legend. He had this
idea of kind of a virologists idea. He believed that
you could cure racism and hate, literally cure it by

(01:16:43):
injecting music and love in the people's lives, and that
he was scheduled to perform at a peace rally. Gunman
came to his house and shot him down. Two days later,
fut on that stage and sang. Somebody asked him why.

(01:17:05):
He said, the people we're trying to make this world
worse are not taking a day off. How can I?
And that was another New Black History Month for legends,
courtesy of The Breakfast Club. All right, and happy birthday
to Barb Molly. Today's born day to Bob Marley. You should,
you should, We should all hope to make the impact
on the world that Bob Molly. Absolutely he might. You

(01:17:27):
think I would say he's like the biggest artist universally
ever across everything Bob. Yeah, I think Jackson. I think
Bob might have Michael beat across the world. I don't
know though, that's close Bob and Michael only maybe Tupac
and even like as far as his um. You know,
all the merchandise, are they telling the hell out of

(01:17:49):
day coffee? Coffee, yeah, candles, matches, all types of Bob Molly. Yeah,
I wonder that. I wonder if the kids out there,
who even his legacy, his children. Do you think people
know about Molly's a real person. Yes, it's kids. I'm
just saying because you think about all the kids that
just see him on merchandise. Yeah, they said they know
he's a real Yeah. His music stilled today to this day.

(01:18:10):
People like Ante Mama like just a That's what I'm saying.
I know he's a real person. Anjema might be real too.
I'm not sure what the hell was that? See talk
about my goodness? All right? When we come back. We
got the positive note though, moves to breakfast slogan more.
Anybody is DJ Envy Angeluye Charlemagne, the guy. We are

(01:18:30):
the Breakfast Club now shout to Davone Frankly for joining
us today. Yes, he's a class act, that guy. Let
me say, he definitely has inspired and helped a lot
of people. We had a Q and A yesterday, and
the questions that people were asking him in the audience
at the Schoenberg where pretty good. There was one one
woman who said that she's been with her husband, I

(01:18:50):
think for like seventeen years and she's now ready to
leave him, and she just read his book and now
she wants to know what should her next steps be.
And you gotta hear what his answer was to that.
But you know, there's real life situations to be careful
when you play with when you play with people's lives
and you really don't know the ins and outs and
you give people advice. Well, he recommended, of course that

(01:19:10):
they they've been in couples therapy for five years, and
she talked about how they have gone through a different
therapist because they were trying to find somebody that was
suitable for them. She had these dreams and passions in
life that she has not still achieved, and he's not
supportive of what it is that she wants to do,
and she put a lot of the things that she
wanted to do when made a lot of sacrifices. What
if you want to rap and he just like to trash,

(01:19:32):
that's true, which was to be a rapper, you know.
But anyway, as I was saying, you know, she's tried, basically,
and she's gone through all the different feelings and gone
through counseling and all of that, and you know, he
definitely did. He isn't telling you to leave him or whatever,
but everybody's relationship and situation is different. All he can
do is guide you on some things that you can do,

(01:19:54):
some actionable steps to kind of help you figure it out. Okay,
all right, Well, I hope with Vonne Franklin and Knight
in Chicago too. Well, we're gonna be at the Fellowship
Missionary Baptist Church having a uh don't get me the line,
but it's a program discussing the current state in the
future of you know, just African American men. So we'll
be talking about you know, mental health and just just

(01:20:15):
doing the work to be a better human being out
of here. That's all. Yeah, get rid of that dog
inside of you that believe it's on a positive note,
listen to positive Notice this man. If you find a
path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere. Breakfast
club you don't finish for y'all dumb
