So good morning everybody. It's Thursday. The weekend is almost here.
Oh man, I can't wait about what you doing this
weekend anything. Well, you know, my coffee shop, Coffee Uplifts People,
is set to open any day now, so we're just
trying to get everything in order for that. So I
actually I'm gonna be here is just basically working on

(01:39):
that this weekend in the Juice Bar. I'm spending the
weekend working on my businesses. And today also on Facebook,
I co hosted Black Entrepreneurs Day for Damon John So
that's happening today also if you want to check that
out of some great conversations he had with Kevin Hart,
Shaquille O'Neill, Tyra Banks, Marcus Samuelson, Michael straighthand a whole
lot of people on there, a lot executives giving you

(02:00):
advice if you have to start up all of those things.
So as a great event at the Apollo, sound like
it's a whole lot of money. And his mother who
so yeah, okay, manage on the remix, Okay, okay, Yeah,
I did something with Airbnb the other day, and uh,
they're helping people learn about airbn, being invested in Airbnb.

(02:21):
I'm not gonna say people. They're helping U the black community,
teaching them how to do Airbnb. A lot of people
are interested in it. That's why you opened up that
door talking about this ain't Charlomagne house. You know the
crazy part I was this. I was joking. So I
shot a commercial for Airbnb. It was like a sixty
second commercial. So they were knock on the door and
I was like slaping altele Charlomagne live here, and I
was joking. So they've made clips of it, and that's
the little clip that they put out, which I didn't

(02:43):
know what that was. I was confused anything to do
with Turk exactly. Angelie sent us a video about Turk
saying we played vicious gay games, and you sent me that.
I thought that was the start of a point. All,
do we play vicious gay games? I don't know, but
check us right when we first had the conversation, y'all
acting like y'all didn't play pentry games. We were waiting
on you double back. No, read that all wrong. We

(03:06):
were being check y'all. It's obvious we play games, and
did he check out? He spoke the turke. Did you
put something on Instagram or social media? Now it is
the next day, y'all made it a host. I think
it's literally like we were being sarcastic, Like what they
were using were vicious for you guys, remember they use
that word to describe envy. That's definitely your name. We

(03:29):
got a lot to talk about vicious. Kyrie Irving, he
spoke back about him basically being I don't want to
say band from the league, but him not participating. Now
he talks about his decision to not get vaccinated. Let's
call it that made a choice. He made a choice.
I don't know why everybody up in arms over his choice. Absolutely,
if that man want to lose fifteen point six million dollars,

(03:50):
let him lose fifteen points. Contract extension exactly. The team
put the team put six million dollars. The team put
man dates in place, They told people to rule and stipulations.
He made a choice, Like, that's his choice. I'm not
gonna get up in arms over that man's choice. And
man's choice is not impacting me, and no way, shape
or form, it's definitely not my choice. It is impacting
the Brooklyn Nets fans, though I have to say I'm

(04:11):
not one of those. I really really wanted him to play.
I'm not gonna lie him. This is this is his life.
It isn't a game for him. This is his life.
Clearly what you mean, Clearly it's not his life. Clearly,
it's not his life, because if it was his life,
he wouldn't make this decision. Clearly he thinks that, and
it's not even a thing. He believes that there's issues
that are bigger than basketball right now, and he's choosing

(04:33):
to side on the side with those. He decides what
he wants to do. Absolutely clearly, we're gonna talk about
what he said in front page is all right? Well,
front page News. His next is the breakfast Club Goring,
he moaned. Everybody is TDJ Envy, Angela, Gyee, Charlemagne and guy.
We are to breakfast club. Let's get into front page
news all right now. Last night w NBA, the Mercury Beat,

(04:55):
the Sky ninety one eighty six. Now what else you
talking about? Easy, Well, let's talk about Kyrie Irving. He
did about a twenty minute Instagram live where he discussed
why he is not getting vaccinated, and he said, it's
not about being anti VAXX. Are about being on one
side or the other. It's about being true to what
feels good for me. Here is what he had to say.
You know, this is my life. This is one body

(05:16):
that I get here, and you're telling me what to
do with my body. And it has nothing to do
with the organization. I'm gonna put that out there. Has
nothing to do with the NETS, has nothing to do
with my teammates. This has everything to do what was
going on in our world, and I'm being grouped in
to something that's bigger than just a game of basketball.
I'm a human being. I have feelings, i have thoughts,
but I'm staying grounded in what I believe in. It's

(05:37):
not about being anti VAXX. If you choose to give
a vaccine, I'll support you. If you choose to be unvaccinated,
I'll support you. Why are people up in arms about
that man's choice. He made a decision, and he said,
it's not about the NETS or his teammates. You know,
New York Cities protocols require him to receive at least
one side of the vaccine, and so they've decided with
the nets that they are not going to let him

(05:58):
be part time. He has to be a full part
participant in order to play in these games. So they
don't want him to just only play when he does
away games at places that allow it. They want him
to be able to either play full time or not. Right,
here's what he had to say about not retiring, because
some people feel like, is he retiring after this? Don't
believe that I'm retiring. Don't believe that you know, I'm

(06:18):
gonna give up this game for a vaccine mandate or
staying unvaccinated. Don't believe any of them. Man Like, like
really be aware of what's being said before I even
get a chance to be on the podium and speak
for myself. You know, what would you do if you
felt uncomfortable going into the season when you were promised
that you would have exemptions or that you didn't have

(06:39):
to be forced to get the vaccine? You know, this
wasn't an issue before the season started. I don't understand
why people are so up in arms over somebody making
a choice. The league gave everybody an option. They laid
out the rules, they laid out the mandates, and then
you decide to do what you want to do. Why
are people saw up in arms that he decided to

(07:00):
not playing Because people make opinion on everything. People are
nets fans, and people know the fact that he's losing money.
So people a lot of people the right. Yeah, But
I mean it's been dragging out too for a while
because at first they weren't sure if he was gonna
play or not. Then they weren't sure if he was
gonna get vaccinated. Then they weren't sure if he'll be
able to play in away games. Then they said they'll
be able to use it. It's just been kind of
dragging on as people are watching all of this unfold.

(07:22):
It is also a representation of what's going on I
think all over the United States with people in their
particular jobs of whether or not they have to make
this decision on you know, people have lost their jobs
because they aren't getting vaccinated. So I think it is
a big conversation and it's just an example of that.
Here's what he has to say about the money that
he's losing, because you know, he's not going to be
getting sixteen million dollars in salary this upcoming year and

(07:45):
one hundred and eighty six million dollars as far as
an extension, he will not be offered that. Now, it's
not always about the money. It's about choosing what's best
for you. You think I really want to lose money.
You think I really want to give up on my
dream to go after a championship. You think I really
just want to give up my job. You think I
want to give up my livelihood because of a mandate,
because I don't have accommodations because I'm a vaccinated Come on,

(08:08):
I'm not gonna be used as a person in this agenda,
you know, Like I'm not. I'm not even gonna speak
on that. I'm just saying like it should be not
it should not be divided amongst all of us. It
should just be understood and respected. He made a choice.
I don't have to agree with his choice, but he
made it. He made a choice, and people need to
be honest and just admit. This is about the attention
the media can garner from this story. It's about celebrity.

(08:30):
Because ninety five percent of the NBA is vaccinated. Why
isn't that a headline if you're trying to get people
to get the vaccine, focus on all the superstars that
guided people focused on this because it brings attention to
their respective platforms. It's something to talk about. They don't
care about that because of the mandates here in New
York City so that he can't play. You know, if
other places don't have those mandates and people are not

(08:51):
vaccinated and can still play, I think that's a different story.
Who are the other players in the league who are vaccinated?
Ninety five pers in the league vaccinated? Who would other players?
You will never know because they don't garner your plat
forms attention. No, because they and has given up fifteen
sixteen seventeen million dollars a year makes it a story.
And it's because it's about celebrity, of course, because because

(09:12):
why aren't we discussing the other five percent of the
NBA that's not vaccinated? Because, by the way, and by
the way, if you want people to get vaccinated, why
aren't you talking about all the superstars in the league
who are ninety five percent of the NBA and the vaccinate.
I don't think the press is doing it because they
want people to get vaccinated. The press is doing it
because it's a story. I just said that, Why do
you treat me like a black Why don't you me

(09:32):
like a black woman. You hear the things that I say,
but you're asking why that. You were saying that the
press is focused on it because they want people to
get vacin. I could I said what you said. I said,
if you are trying to get people to get the vaccine,
focused on all the pies to do that, all right,
Well that is your front page in the story. That's
my point. All these people act like their pro vaccine,

(09:54):
and they act like they're so mad that somebody's not
getting the vaccine. But yet they pushed the person who
got the narrative of not getting the vaccine when they
could push the Darati. Of all the people who do
press is just reporting story. I think Kyrie probably knew
this would be a big story. I mean, I don't
think he shouldn't be, though. It's my point. Get it
off your chest eight five eight five one oh five one.

(10:15):
If you need to vent, call us up right now,
phone lines and wide open eight hundred five eight five
one oh five one. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on
the Breakfast Club. I'm telling I'm telling call of you.
If this is your time to get it off your chest,
Whether you're mad or blessed eight hundred five eight five

(10:36):
one five one. We want to hear from you on
the breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Good morning? Sherry? Hey, Sherry,
get it off your chest. So I just wanted to
touch a little bit on that Kyrie thing. I am
mad about that because I agree with Angela. Ye, it's
been a lot of issues with him since he left Cleveland, right,

(10:57):
this is just like a new issue. So it's not
that it's about the vaccine, because they did talk about
Lebron when he didn't get it, and then they something
when he did get it. So it's not only him,
but he has been a problem for the league. It's true,
after an excuse, after an excuse with Kyrie, you won
a championship already with Lebron, then you went, oh, I'm

(11:18):
gonna go to the Celtics. What did he do at
the nothing? Excuses, excuse excuses. Now he's over here at
the net. It's another excuse. You think another team, you
think another team will pick him up. That I don't know,
because yeah, he's that he's not talented. He is talented,

(11:40):
but that's the problem. Talent. Sometimes your attitude to over
trump your talent, right, and people want trying to deal
with it because they're like, oh, you're gonna bring a
problem to this team. Look how many problems he's caused
for every team. Yeah, they'll say, they say, your talent
will take you when your character can't sustain you. Hello,
who's this justin from the Jam Beach for Jam. You

(12:01):
sound like you do the Quiet Storm, like you come
on after midnight and you introduced slow songs justin. Yeah,
I appreciate this, chow man. I was actually calling us
to tell you, bro, I really really appreciate it. Sunday
I got a chance to meet you and Shaky Dots
and I met Michelle Williams, got a chance to ask
her a question. I'm a podcaster. I told you about
my podcast. Yeah, I remember. I came in really like

(12:25):
I think, and I'm a network. I'm gonna need some
great people, bro. But it stayed in my life. Man.
It was like I was hearing things from Jason and
Jay that I had never heard before, right, And I
was like, I'm just here to network. But like I
was like, y'all talking to me directly. You know, when
when when Jason said we shouldn't have defined a man, right,
because a minute we defined ourselves, we limit ourselves. Like

(12:49):
that hit me right in the chests, man. And when
you had your moment, when he poured into you and
you gave way the theories and those men wrapped their
arms around you, it was the most beautiful thing I've
ever seen, man, Because you know, I never saw my dad,
I never saw a black man cry right, but it
needs sitting here at twenty nine years old, seeing that
man like it really saved my life because sometimes we

(13:10):
get so caught up in helping other people we forget
to help ourselves. And one I would say, I realized
that although I came as a podcaster, man, I left
as a student. Man. So I just wanted to thank
you for doing that. I drove all the way up
from Virginia seven hours, thank you, brother, because I mean,
who can miss a free event? Man. You did that
and you put it on. It was so helpful, and

(13:33):
I got so many relationships out of it, man, But
most importantly, I got my life. Man. I'm just so
happy they've had a chance to be there and have
metry too. Man. I just wanted to personally thank you
for that because I needed it. Thank I mean That's
what it was for man, the Mental Welfact boil. It
was a day of mental health and healing education. Man.
So I'm glad you feel that way. That's definitely gonna

(13:54):
be an annual event for shel for show. Were definitely
doing it again next year, maybe twice. Get it off
your chest. How many men put their arms around you,
brou for my man, Ryan munday Um, Jay Barnett and
Jason Wilson and Maxwell because you know what it was, man.
You know, Jason was just telling me how proud he
wasn't me, man, and just you know, you know how

(14:15):
you know, watching my evolution and things like that, and
you know, I realized I never I didn't get that
when I was younger, you know what I mean. I
didn't get uh my dad telling me he was he
was proud of me too much in that That's what.
But it is very important, you know, we have to
pour into each other. Men need an affirmation from from
other men. We all need affirmation. I don't know why
we lie like we don't what, but not the affirmation

(14:37):
because of what we have, you know, our clothes or
jewelry or cars. Affirmation for who we are. It's people
that means, that means a lot. I appreciate you, brother, Oh,
thank you. I appreciate you. Now. I don't want to
hooge for me. I'm fine. Get it off your chest
five eight five one o five one if you need
to ven here this now it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
the Breakfast Club. Got sucked on your mind? Hello? Who's

(15:02):
this going on? Man? That Jamal from Roley North, Tlana
Jamal whatever? Get it off her chests? Bro. Yeah. I
don't want to comment on the Kyrie everything. Um, I mean,
I know everybody think it's messed up, but we kind
of kind of understand, Like he under contract, so he
has an obligation to the book. If I and one
of his teammates, I'm pitting Kyrie because that team got
a real legitimate chance to be special and he is

(15:27):
in any literally by not taking a back seam. I
understand it's his choice and it's his fighty or whatever,
but like I said, he has an obligation to that
team as well, So it's kind of like you know
what I mean, like what you want to do? Like
you know why this is hilarious because if you go
back to when this, when this, when this first happened
when everybody's like old Kyrie kd together. Anybody that knew

(15:47):
anything about sports, including me, said this is this may
not work because of their emotional like us, that's it's
it's a mental game at this point. Yeah, I know, man,
but he kind of like you for him the tickets
still like all the roster pretty much that that's what
he's doing. He's taking himself from the robin. Like when
he signed his contract, and the contract it didn't say

(16:08):
you have to take a vaccine, you know what I mean.
So this is something that popped up, and this is
his beliefs, you know what I mean. He said he's
not an anti vaccor. He could do what he wants
to do. This is his life, his decision, and this
is he's doing what he thinks is best for him.
And you know, you don't have to agree. And I've
been reading what Kevin Duransten saying and so he's still
saying positive things about Kyrie. But according to the Bleacher Report,

(16:29):
they said he wouldn't lose any sleep if they trade Kyrie,
because if they said, it's just kind of too much
going on. I mean, listen, it won his job at
the end of the day, he still got to go
to work, and once again, Kyrie still getting twenty million dollars.
Next year, he's losing fifteen point six, but he's still
getting twenty. So he made a choice. Hello, who's this Linda,
Good morning, get it off your chest, Good morning. I
was just listening to you all about UM tyree, and

(16:52):
I understand what he's saying. My husband and I bolt
UM got vaccinated. And so when we decided that when
our oldest son turned sixteen in April, we was going
to get him vaccinated because that our youngest son had
some AMMU system problems. And a week after he turned
sixteen UM, we got him vaccinated and he started having problems.

(17:15):
Five days after having being vaccinated. UM. She was having
UM they call it wigers, but he was having uncontrollable
shake fever, vomiting for three weeks. We tested him back
and forth to the doctors. Didn't know what was going on.
A month after then we had to have he had

(17:35):
to have open heart surgery. Since then, he's had two
open heart surgeries and last month he had to get
a partial part of his long removed. This is it
proven that this is because of the vaccine and No,
they haven't proved it because they don't know what caused it.
They did during the two open heart surgeries. They've done

(17:57):
all types of tests. They've sent all his stuff to
the Mayo Clinic to Boston Medical Center. Because they were
thinking it was hard cancer. They were thinking it was infections.
We were back and forth in the hospital and at
this point they don't know. UM. Now they're thinking it's
some type of inflammation. He's UM taking chemo infusions. UM.

(18:20):
He's now don't have what haven't had any of the
shape for over a month and a half. They found
anne rhythms and as long where they had to remove
that partial part of the loans UM. But like I said,
we don't know. The doctors don't know because UM it started.
All these this problems started five days after having the

(18:42):
vaccine and UM where we finally went to one of
the rheumatologists. He said, UM, it could have caused it.
But at this point they have reported it to UM,
the CDC to see if there's other kids that have
had this problem. But we just don't know. When I'm
with you know, with my husband and I Will, I'm

(19:05):
fighting myself saying maybe we should have waited a while
just to see, you know how some of the other
kids would have responded to it, but we were thinking
about partaking our youngest son. They told us not to
get the second vaccine for him and to hold off
on getting our other son the vaccine, right, got you. Well,

(19:26):
I'm so happy that it looks like he is. He
getting better now, He is getting better. He was one
forty one before all of this happened, and he got
down to ninety four pounds. He's back up to one
twenty eight now. So the chemo infusions are doing the
work in the still wars that he's on is doing
the work. Well, we'll pray for him and for your

(19:47):
family as well. Thank you so much, all right, definitely
saying y'all healing energy, get it off your chest. Eight
on five eight five, one oh five one that we
got rooms on the way Man fifty seven versus little Kim.
What it's the problem with these two? They had a
great relationship before. But we'll tell you what the issue
is now, all right, we'll get into that next. It's

ye Well, fifty cent posted a very unflattering post about

Little Kim and it's a video of her dancing. And
then where's that lepricon from? I think that's the name
of the movie. Okay, I never said now. He said,
I'm sorry. I know it's early, but I don't know why.
It's like this is funny to me, l ol, and
Little kim Or responded, upset, You're so obsessed with me?

too fly in this video? You reaching out? But we

Didn't know I had a girlfriend named Curtis A. Somebody's
crushing hard. Will get through this, babes. Don't forget to
pre order my book, Memoirs of a little Kim the

(21:16):
Queen Bee period. Well, two cancers going at it, okay,
two petty cancers. Cancers loved to laugh, but we are
also sensitive. Kim probably wasn't in a joking mood that day,
and he's done this before. But they went at each
other before, and they got a show with each other
coming up in the next I think thirty days. That'd
be interested. They performed together. No, I don't think I've
ever seen magic Stick live. No, I'd never seen it.

(21:38):
Shut up those games all right now, while I start

awful situation where he said that four people ran into
their home and shot sent him in. His girlfriend. He said,

her head. She's at the hospital now being strong. So
he did share an update, and she also posted, Honestly,
I really don't know what to say but to give
things to the man above. Thank you Jesus, Thank you Jesus.
He really had his angels watching over me, and I
also truly believe Benny Junior is one of God's angels.
Benny saved my life. I really do appreciate each and
every one of you guys so much. I could never

(22:21):
thank you enough. I never knew I was this strong
until now. And there's a picture of her in the hospital,

bunch of new things. But oh yeah, you get you
a little nervous, you know, I mean especially you know
sometimes we're out of town and your family's alone and
you just want to make sure that it's safe and
you never want to get that call as somebody's in
the house. And but I am glad she had a firearm,
and I'm glad that you know how to use their firearm.
And that's why I always say, if you're a black
person in this country, owning a legal firearm is a

(23:05):
form of self care. Yes, everybody in your family should
know how to use that thing. Yeah, I told my
older kids. My daughter knows my older son knows just
in case dad's not at home, and then you know,

at home after his pneumonia scare. He was in Miami
in the hospital, has now been discharged and is continuing

(23:27):
to recover at home. So some people are saying that
his busy schedule and constant travel were to blame for
that illness and he needs to take care of his
health because that is true. Not sleeping enough, traveling all
over the place, not eating right, although those things can
lead to you ending up being hospitalized, and who knows
that does really affect your house? Who sleuthor guy Willie

we'll talk about a very famous reporter who took some
things out of an interview to make sure that the
subject of their interview didn't look bad. All right, we'll
get to that. Next is to Breakfast Club. Good morning,
So Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same.

Breakfast Morning, everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy.

(25:35):
We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front
page news now w NBA yesterday to Mercury Beat the
Sky ninety one eighty six, now today to Dodgers take
on the Giants at nine pm? Now what else were
talking about? Easy? Well. Katie Kurik has admitted in her
new books that in a twenty sixteen interview she withheld
some of what Ruth Bader Ginsburg had to say on

(25:57):
kneeling during the national anthem. Here's what air? What do
I think? I think it's really dumb them. Would I
arrest them for doing it? No, it's dumber and disrespectful
the same I would have the same man. So if
you ask me about flag birding, I said, I think
it's a terrible thing to do, but I wouldn't lock
a person up for doing it. Now what she really said, though,

(26:21):
because there were some stronger comments that Ruth Badegainsburg had
to say. She said, not standing for the anthem shows
a contempt for a government that has made it possible
for their parents and grandparents to live a decent life,
which they probably could not have lived in the places
they came from. As they become became older, they realized
that this was youthful folly, and that's why education is important.
I think it's a terrible thing to do, but I

(26:42):
wouldn't lock a person up for doing it. I would
point out how ridiculous it seems to me to do
such an act now. Kaddie Kurik said in her book
Going There, she's such a big fan of Ruth bade
A Gainsberg, and she felt protective of her and the
controversy of the comments would likely put her in so
she should. She lost a lot of sleep and felt
conflicted over whether or not she should include that full
thoughts on the matter, and she ended up taking out

(27:05):
some of that. And she also said that the head
of public affairs for the Supreme Court emailed her and
said that Ginsburg had misspoken and requested that her comments
on the matter be removed and she said she eventually
mostly did as they requested. I mean I get it.
I mean I've done it. You know, we've done it
up here. You know what's happened with young artists, old artists.
Some people coming here and you know, say things that

(27:27):
we know are going to hurt them and hurt other people.
So yes, we edit. I've learned my lesson, you know,
and now I'll understand why the Katie Koriks of the
world do that, or I understand why you know, Aye
Martine has never put out two pox interview, I get it. Yeah.
And she was eighty three at the time of the
interview too, so I think also sometimes, I mean she
was older and they said she probably Katie coorig said

(27:48):
she was elderly and probably didn't understand the question. So listen.
That book is coming at October twenty six, and they
said she's telling everything in her biography. It is some
things on the cutting room floor that would get some
artists absolutely room roasted. Absolutely, Yes, okay, absolutely, Sometimes you
got to protect people from themselves and protect and protect

(28:10):
you know, the people that they may be heard talking about. Yeah,
but you you learned that with time. Probably didn't know
that early on in like, you know, career like let
people say anything, right if you can, you know, stop
some bs from happening, Why wouldn't you? Yeah, all right now.
The Washington Post in twenty twenty first reported a ten
minute video where they said Washington staffers were allegedly instructed

(28:31):
to take behind the scenes contact at a swimsuit photo
shoot to package and create a video featuring only the
good pits, the good bits, and so that video, according
to The Washington Post, was shared with team owner Daniel Snyder,
who denied these allegations. But now former Washington football team
chairleaders are calling on the NFL to release the full
result of the investigation into the John Gruden scandal. As

(28:53):
you know, there were some alleged photos that were discovered
in emails reported by the New York Times, and they're
saying that there were images of topless cheerleaders from a
past swimsuit photoshoot video that were allegedly passed around by
John Gruden to then Washington general manager Bruce Allen. And
so they want to make sure that that investigation, they
want to make whatever is found from that public, even

(29:15):
though they're saying right now that they're not going to
make any more of these emails public. So these cheerleaders
are saying, it's despicable to see there's more evidence of
exploitation and violation of the cheerleaders as you can imagine.
Imagine you're doing a shoot and they're filming behind the
scenes footage and the pictures of you topless are being
passed around by the coach and management. So we'll see

(29:37):
what happens if they are going to release the full
investigation report about how misogynistic and of course we've heard
the racist emails and a very sexist culture within the Raiders,
all right, and I think it's the whole NFL. I
think the whole NFL about to get a rude awakening.
I think it's gonna be a lot of revealing, especially
before Mercury gets out of Gatorad. Lacey Thibodeau Field to

(30:00):
a former cheer leader for the Raiders, that the latest
email scandal with further evidence of a misogynistic, racist, very
sexist culture. She also wants the release of the full
investigation report. All right, that is your front page news.
All right, now, let's open up the full lines eight
five one oh five one. We were talking Kyrie Irvin
early this morning. Yesterday, he spoke on his Live about

(30:22):
his decision. You know, this is my life. This is
one body that I get here, and you're telling me
what to do with my body. And it has nothing
to do with the organization. I'm gonna put that out there.
Has nothing to do with the nets, has nothing to
do with my teammates. This has everything to do what
was going on in our world, and I'm being grouped
in to something that's bigger than just a game of basketball.
I'm a human being. I have feelings, I have thoughts,

(30:45):
but I'm staying grounded in what I believe in. It's
not about being anti VAXX. If you choose to give
a vaccine, I support you. If you choose to be unvaccinated,
I'll support you. Let's open up the full lines. Let's
have this conversation. What are your thoughts now? You know
the Brooklyn has announced that he won't be playing until
he can play full time, and yesterday he was on

(31:05):
line for twenty minutes talking about his decision. I don't
know why people are up in arms about that man's choice.
It's his choice. You know, sometimes when you give people
an option, when you give people a choice. It might
make the choice that you don't agree with, but guess what,
that's still that person's choice. Let's hopen up about to
be up in arms about his choice. Let's talk about it.
Eight hundred five eight five one o five one is
to Breakfast Club comrning your phone call in right now,

(31:27):
call me at dropping into the Breakfast club topic break
it down eight hundred five eight five one oh five
one the Breakfast Club. It's topic time. The phone called
eight hundred five eight five one oh five one to
join it to the discussion with the Breakfast Club. Talk

(31:50):
about it morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne
the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Now if you
just joined us, we're talking about Kyrie Irvin, of course,
of the Brooklyn Nets. Now the Brooklyn Nets announced that
he won't be playing with the team until he can
play our full capacity, meaning he could to come to practices,
he could play home games, away games and all that.
Then yesterday Kyrie Irvin said this in response to all

(32:13):
of that. You know, this is my life. This is
one body that I get here and you're telling me
what to do with my body, and it has nothing
to do with the organization. I'm gonna put that out there.
Has nothing to do with the nets, has nothing to
do with my teammates. This has everything to do with
what was going on in our world, and I'm being
grouped in to something that's bigger than just a game
of basketball. I'm a human being. I have feelings, I

(32:34):
have thoughts, but I'm staying grounded in what I believe in.
It's not about being anti VAXX. If you choose to
give a vaccine, I support you. If you choose to
be unvaccinated, I'll support you. So we're asking eight hundred
five eighty five one or five one, what are your thoughts? Right?
And I'm looking at what James Harden had to say.
He said losing Irving is a big hit, but he
still believes Brooklyn can win a championship. He said, individually myself,

(32:58):
I'm still wanting to set that up. I feel like
the Tire organization is on the same path where all
it's a collective unit. They're going to keep on pushing forward,
and they would prefer to have Kyrie on the team,
of course, but he said the focus is on the
players in the locker room who are putting in the
work every single day. So, I mean it's a hard situation,
and he did make a decision. That's his choice, like

(33:19):
you said, but unfortunately there's rules and regulations in place
right now because of this pandemic, and that choice is
costing you money and seeing that you can't play. And
it's a decision that a lot of people have to make,
not just Kyrie who has millions on the line, but
everyday people whose livelihoods are on the line. Yeah, I mean,
I'll be honest. I mean, that's it's Kyrie's decision. That's

(33:40):
his own life, that's his own health, that's his own body.
He can make the decision that he feels is best
for him, and he made that decision. That's him. Now.
If I'm on the other side of defense, if I'm
the Brooklyn Nets owner, I got to make the decision
that's best for my team, and that is, Hey, if
you want to play, I got to make sure you could.
You're one hundred percent in. They both can make the
decision that's best for them. Kyrie, he's he's fine, He'll
be fine. He still makes millions of dollars a year,

(34:02):
and he can stand on the decision that he wants
to stand on that's my opinion. And he's not anti vaxx.
He was very clear about that. It's not that he's
anti vaxx, is just that it's his body. I mean, yeah,
he's not anti VACS, but it doesn't matter if he's
anti VACS and that it's just simply his choice. And
you know who should be the most disappointed by this,
The brooklyn Nets, the brooklyn Nets and Kyrie Irving. The
rest of us just want something to talk about, the
rest of us just using it for content. And I

(34:24):
really wish the media, first take and everybody else would
just admit this is about the attention the media can
garner from this story. It's all about celebrity. Because, as
I said earlier, ninety five percent of the NBA is vaccinated.
Why isn't that the story. If you are trying to
get people to get the vaccine and you think it's
irresponsible that people aren't, why not focus on all the

(34:45):
superstars that got it. People focused on this because it
brings attention to their respective platforms. They don't care about
the actual issue. Because I ask one simple question, who
are the other players in the league who aren't vaccinated?
It's some superstars like Bradley Bill. He's one, but the
rest of you will never know because they don't garner
these platforms attention. It's just that simple. I suit to
Stephen A. But I saw Stephen D last night after

(35:06):
Kyrie's Live. He jumped on and he acted like he
was about to say something. Then he said, Yo, tune
in the first take to Day. You know what I mean. So,
so y'all can hear what I got to say. People
are just using this platforms. That ended up being a
big deal. And I think Andrew Wiggins right, wasn't that
a big deal? What did I say about Lebron when
it happened? I said, why are we focusing on the
fact that Lebron said he didn't want to be a

(35:28):
surrogate for the vaccine when we could just be focusing
on the fact Lebron and his family got the vaccine.
Everybody does this for attention. They just saying the news,
if it bleeds, it leads. It's the same thing now,
negativity sales man, This is really good morning, Good morning.
What's your thoughts. I'm kind of upset because I am
a nurse and I've had COVID I've been all around

(35:51):
COVID U. I had COVID last year when it first
came out, and I don't like how they're doing kyrie
because let us have Joe that most people who have
had the vaccine does not really need it. Again, the
vaccine is only giving you what you've had when you
had COVID. So I've been up all around COVID since
I caught it, and I've been fine. And it's just

(36:12):
even in Finland how they've been the a Dirna vack
then because of heart information. I saw that you actually
read that study. That study came out of Israel a
few months ago. I didn't know they banned it, and
you said Finland, Yeah, Finland, they're not giving them a
Dirna vaccine because it's showing that it's causing heart information
and younger beings when they're not doing it as younger men.
But I've seen a lot of that, like in the hospitals,

(36:35):
a lot of the adverse effects that they want advertised
on the news. So it kind of tends to be
off that they're doing Kyrie like that, and you know
they're not talking about the adverse and takes of the vaccine.
Tell us some of the adverse effects is a nurse.
What have you seen? Part? Inflamation is the number one thing,
blood clot It's causing heart attacks, causing strokes. And some
people have actually like gone into like keep me feel

(36:58):
your things, like saying that they want to talk about
But yeah, I heard about what's that? What's that? What's that? Hearking?
Did you called Mike Mike Michael something Michael Michael, Michael,
Mike Condria or something like that. Oh well, I haven't
seen that part, you know, I think it's the same thing.
It is this a technical name for hard information? Thank you, mama,
No problem, thank you. Hello, who's this? Good morning? This

(37:20):
is the Tamela. Yes, it is Kyrie's decision. As he
don't want to comply with the company he worked for,
then he should just put his locker and just go
head home. Right, He had to clean out his lock
and head home. Right, But what are your thoughts? Eight
hundred five eight five one oh five one. We're talking

(37:40):
Kyrie Irvin. It's the Breakfast Club the morning. Call me
at your opinions to the Breakfast Club top. Come on
eight hundred five five one five one morning, everybody. Cej
Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we all to Breakfast club.

(38:03):
Now if he just joined us, we're talking Kyrie Irving. Now.
Of course he has been um. He's not allowed to
play until he can play in his full capacity. That
means that they want him there for practice, they want
him at home games, they want him at away games,
and until then he won't be playing. So they want
him to be consistent. Either you're all in or you're
all out. So Kyrie got on his Live yesterday and
he responded, this is some of what he said. You know,

(38:24):
this is my life. This is one body that I
get here, and you're telling me what to do with
my body. And it has nothing to do with the organization.
I'm gonna put that out there. Has nothing to do
with the nets, it has nothing to do with my teammates.
This has everything to do what's going on in our world,
and I'm being grouped in to something that's bigger than
just a game of basketball. I'm a human being. I
have feelings, i have thoughts, but I'm staying grounded in

(38:47):
what I believe in. It's not about being anti VAXX.
If you choose to give a vaccine, I support you.
If you choose to be unvaccinated, I'll support you. So
we're asking your thoughts eight hundred five eight five one
oh five one ill say this is this is everybody's
their own decision. I made a decision based on myself
and my family, not based on work, not based on

(39:08):
my financial situation, not based on anything but what I
thought was best for me Rashawn Casey and my family.
And he's doing the same and he feels like this
is not what he wants to do and he has
to deal with the consequences on one day. I keep
telling y'all, like I said it over and over, the
person the people who should be the most disappointed by
this are the Brooklyn That's and Kyrier and Brooklyn That's
fans because they were looking forward to Sure obviously, sure,

(39:31):
you know, but the rest of us just want something
to talk about, like because this it should not be
an issue, like it really shouldn't. Hello, who's this broke?
Good morning? What's your thoughts? Man on a tyread man
working as a paramedic, And I started working as a
paramedic and I'm one of the top hoto hearing the
state in the basket man, they change the rules so

(39:53):
much so it's like unfair. How you gonna change the
rules on this man and didn't affect him to play
and then take every day gonna pay from me. So
they really don't make sense. And he to be able
to have a point to you know, either play away
or play at home or anything. The body. Yeah, I'm
more upset that, you know, all the essential workers last year,
like the healthcare workers and the teachers and everybody else.

(40:14):
I'm more upset that they losing their jobs this year,
especially when last year they were on the front lines
risking their lives when there was no vaccine. But now
you know they're getting pushed out. I'm more upset about
them not being able to work than Kyrie. And that's
the crazy part now that you say that, you know,
you think about it, and I don't like that as well.
All these these healthcare workers work without a vaccine, without

(40:35):
real protection for a year and a half, and they
did it, you know, and some of them lost their lives.
So now some of them don't want to take the vaccine,
and you're forcing us. If they don't, they lose their jobs.
You told me they rolled out when there was no vaccine,
when there was no PPE when it was none of
that last night. I understand the point of saying, as
we are finding out things that can protect people who
are especially in hospitals with a compromise immune so that

(41:00):
when you find out that, when you find out that
PPE works right because at first they didn't have that,
you give them that as another line of protection, and
then now you have these vaccinations that can also Last
year you told me I was essential. This year, I'm expendable.
They don't put them into another war. The word fire them.
They were the only ones fighting died. Some of them died.

(41:20):
You we were saluting the front line workers last year,
you were satio. That's another topic. But I just think
that what they did to the healthcare works and what
they doing to the healthcare workers by the way, the
way people are up in arms over this Kyrie stuff
when you see people on TV with the vane popping
out their next and that's that's why we should be
acting over those uh people that we call essential last year,
those frontline workers in the healthcare sys. Hello, who's this well? Um?

(41:43):
I personally think that Kyrie bobbing out a little bit um.
You know that the same guy I think that's the
Earth is flat. But I don't like when we do that. No, no, no,
I don't like when we do that. We like to
conflate issues. That's why, y'all. That's why. But I'm glad
you admitted that. That's why people on Kyrie because he
thinks the earth is flatten, other and other extra crazy

(42:04):
stuff facts. So so so the whole thing is like
you have your thoughts, but raise awareness about it because
you stop people that are not getting evascination looking at
him like why are you not getting it? And the
answer just can't be because I want to because like
they said, they do they don gig not billion people
to evaccination, and you're the only one thing in that
that the dead government is trying to pot u deck.

(42:24):
But my brother wants to down you know what, I mean,
enough money to go to go back to go to
Kyraca right now. But my brother, once again, you're proving
my point because I keep saying this is about the media,
because the media can make whatever they want a story.
Ninety five percent of the NBA is vaccinated. Why they
don't focus on that. There's so many superstars in the

(42:45):
league right now that have vaccinated that nobody's talking about.
But I remember Yannie, it was a big deal and
he came forward talking about protecting his family. Were talking
about he spoke about getting vaccinated. Yeah, man, I don't
even hear that. I think we actually played it up here.
And remember, well, that's the problem with that is that
front page news everywhere with that being talked about on

(43:06):
CNN and e FBN like it, and it's cancer that
was talking about Kyrie's decision. No, he was talking about
Lebron once again, that was a big story, but once
again focusing on the fact that Lebron got vaccinated and
his family. But instead of focusing on that, they focused
on the fact you don't want to be an advocate
for the vaccine. Why do we do this? Well, all

(43:28):
I know is what's the model of the story, man,
because I mean Kyrie or I mean maybe the earth
is flat, maybe you know some things we don't. Lord. Well,
I see a lot of but I will say this,
I see a lot of people supporting Kyrie's decision as
well as we are saying in the media. A lot
of people are against and tearing him down. But I
do see on the post a lot of people agreeing
and supporting Kyrie's decisions. But is the man just called

(43:50):
And as I've been saying, what happens is when you
take this narrative of Kyrie and make this to you,
push this out to the forefront, all it does is
make more people spect what's the word skeptical? That's all
it does. When when you could be pushing the fact
that ninety five percent of the NBA is vaccinated, which
will make people be like, oh, well, maybe the vaccine

(44:11):
isn't a problem. It's just weird to be that if
you're a pro vaccine, you always pushing the people that
are so called against it. It's just strange to me.
I don't understand it. All right, Well, we got rooms
all the way, yes, And uh, I guess you guys
up here contradicted yourselves at a certain point and had
to get checked and we'll talk about that. I didn't
contradict myself. I'll just you contradicted yourself. Well, I'm just

(44:31):
telling you what was said. What I said was I
said Envy's ass was flat, okay what and he said
my ass was round. That's what we were debating about.
I would love for you guys not to talk about
each other's a body and he's trying to give me
a shot. I'm conscious. I'm telling him, no, I'm gonna
get his envy. I'm gonna get the shot. Tervy wants
to give me what I heard. It's the back shot.
That's what you're talking about. Get to the breakfast club,

(44:53):

twenty thirteen. Now they're reopening it as a Penn Soul
Lewis College of Business and Design, the first design focused HBCU.
So they just actually announced that who you know who
runs it? Who's the president? All? I don't know? Um,
the man behind the idea is doctor Duane Edwards. It's
his name. Yeah, I've been hearing about this for a

(46:18):
little while now, so it's finally happening. Will they be
considered historically black college and university? Like, is they reopening it? Right? Um?
I mean yeah, I mean this is the first time
they've ever reopened an HBCU. So I guess we'll see
how it goes. But does it say how many students
they're gonna have the first year or second year. No,
they said they just started the conversation like eleven months ago,

(46:41):
and so now it's happening. And Edwards is the founder
of it. He's designed shoes for brands like A six,
New Balance, Nike, and Air Jordan, and he's one of
the forces behind this business and design. That's the flying said.
Currently it's tuition free. So corporations sponsored the students and
they're housing Detroit. Wow, be able to say you you

the Breakfast Club of the Morning Morning everybody is DJ Atway,
Angela Ye Charlemagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Fat Joe. It's

(48:30):
about this is the rumor report with Angela Yee on
the Breakfast Club. Well, we were discussing Fat Joe when
he was on with Big Tigger on Rap City and
he said that the baby is the new Tupac. Listen

(48:50):
to this Tupac. I don't know. It's hard to beat
these guys. I mean, you asking me some crazy stuff,
I would say the baby, all right. So that was
his answer, and he didn't really experience on it. But
since then he has gone on his Instagram Live to
discuss why he said this. I'm not making excuses. I'm
not saying sorry, I'm not none of that. But who's

(49:11):
the new Tupac don't know. By the way, I knew
Tupac she called real life. He was the realist rapper. Ever,
so now when I look when I think pop, not
just musically or whatever the case may be, I'm thinking today,
be a real one. I believe he lives when he raps,
and that's very much like Tupac. But no one will

(49:34):
ever be Tupoc Scord all right. He expanded even further
on his life because I guess a lot of people
were discussing this, but I'm trying to tell you I
got put in the hot seat and I'm trying to
help my brother read vive rat City. So I answer,

(49:54):
if it was a big Tigger and rad City, I
probably wouldn't have not answer, oh right, if not Tupac,
if not the baby, give me some suggestions who you
think I should have played? Well, that's that's Fat Joe's opinion.
You know what I mean. My suggestion is, you know,
like like he said, when you're in those hot seats,
you don't have to answer because here's the answer to

(50:15):
that question. Who's the new Tupac? Nobody? Okay, there will
never be another Tupac. We love these people so much
that we missed their energy so much that we want
it back. But those days are gone. There is no
new Tupac and there will be no new tool. A
lot of people do try to channel Tupac too. I've
always done that. It's been going on for a year.
I've been going on literally since he passed a week
too literally too well, when he was alive. When he

(50:37):
was alive, they was trying to channel him all right Now.
San Francisco artist Burner, and you also know him from
Cookies from the Weed and Cannabis stores and brand, he
announced that he is fighting cancer. Oh wow, yeah, So
I prayed to him. He said, I think we made
Cookie so special in my music career. So special was

(50:58):
always being transparent and sharing my journey with you. So
I figured, instead of fighting this alone, I one of
the people who got me where I am today. To
fight with me three three weeks ago, they found traces
of cancer in a series of blood tests. Today, I
went in for a procedure, hoping to get off easy
and found out I have a major fight ahead of me.
If you know me, this has always been my biggest fear.
But I am content with where I'm at and what
I'm facing, as well as every possible outcome. So our

(51:21):
prayers go out to you. Absolutely shout to burn definitely.
So and again he did say that. He said, if
you have cancer in your family, there's blood test you
can take like he did to check for over forty
kinds of cancer. He said, I'm so glad I did
because knowing is half the battle. It's time for the
biggest challenge of my life and I'm ready. Wow. All right, now,

(51:42):
let's turn the cameras on Charlemagne and Mby and so
Turk was back on glad TV. Now, if you guys recalled,
Turk had previously said that all guys play gay games
and penitentiary games. It's just like somebody hitting somebody on
the ads. You know what I'm saying, When they playing basketball,
they don't mean they gay. Every male have some type

(52:02):
of gay game that they played with their homeboard. But
when you know your sexual preference, brothers like you feeling well,
this did get discussed on the Breakfast Club. I reported it,
and you know, Turke is gonna break down what happened
when I first reported it, and then you guys did
a complete one eighty the next day and made a
whole topic out of it. When Charlotte Man and Envy

(52:26):
when they first covered the story, they was looking at
Angela like they ain't never did it. But then they
knew the fans was gonna find clips after denying that
they never did it before. So they come back the
next day and they admit to it and do a
whole storyline. Because I had this son, Charlotte Man and Envy,
they played vicious gay game, you know what I'm saying.

(52:48):
But that's what they do. People just do it at
different levels. Mine. First of all, we were being sarcastic
when we were looking at Angelie because we said, we
don't do it. Y'all know that's a damn lie. Okay,
So we thought we thought was about to, you know,
dunk the basketball because you was throwing her an alleu. Correct,
that's what we did that for. Come on, cover up.
I don't know if they're cover I don't know if
they're vicious. But what constitute's vicious as opposed to non vi?

(53:12):
I don't know. I didn't know. It was levels to
the game. Game. There are levels to the game. Right now,
you think you guys are extremely aggressive with each other,
We're at level one. We're not level ten. Ten. Is
like when Turkey and and No level one. We're not
at Turk and Burman level. What do you mean, Turkey?
You're talking about? What did they talked about kissing each other?
We're not at that level? No, not talking about what

(53:35):
are you talking about? But they talked about he said
he kissed them before. I mean, I gave you an
ass bro on camera, mold of ass. I mean, that's
what level would that? It's about a six, bro about
did you put your finger in and that makes it
about you know what I mean? And started singing BBD
you was like smacking up, flipping rub it down. That

(53:57):
kind of makes it a ten, not nine. That's like
a nine nine with a six in front of him.
I think once y'all started publicly doing it for now,
the dolls, that's a ten. I had the dolls in
the background for like six months up here, no longer
than that, like a year some change. I can't what's

(54:20):
the guy named Nick that finally called called in did
the video? He did a video on YouTube. I had
a whole storyline going on behind me. Okay, didn't say
nothing about it, just I just used to like to
watch people go crazy in the YouTube comments. They're pushing
a gender Okay, they're part of the a little bit
of natty. They're doing these rituals. Yeah about all right.
I'm glad you admitted all right, well yes, and I'm

(54:43):
glad that y'all didn't leave Turk out there on his
own like it doesn't happen. I would never and that
y'all really supported and backed him up, not even regular
but viciously back waiting to come up here. All right,
and lastly, let's shout out the se what answer that
man that's deviciously backing it up to? All right? Well,

(55:07):
that is your boomer report. I was gonna do Surgeon
backa just going along these lines because I know you're
a fan of his. That dropping a close box Surgeon Backe,
that's my guy. Do we have the clip of Charlomagne
talking about I was asking that question for Sam Seema Sam.
We love surgeon back. All right, so do you all right?

(55:28):
Well awkward and uncomfortable? All right? Well you want to
get the donkey to you? Sir? Who gets that donkey neck?
Won't y'all grow up? Man? You okay? Jesus Christ, we
need the five individuals who are hit with rico um

(55:49):
for the murder of FPG Duck to come to the
front of the cornengation. We like to have a word
with him. All right, we'll get to that. Next is
to Breakfast Club the morning. So Breakfast Club, your mornings
will never be the same. Our Audible pick of the

hop's greatest mcs, narrates his life story and this beach
driven memoir. It's part of Audible's Words and Music series.

Maine say the gang, don't get out, shame man, you
are you? Donkey today does not discriminate. I might not
have the song of today, but I got to donkey that.
So if you ever feel I need to be a

(56:32):
donkey man. Hit it with the eyes the breakfast club. Bitch.
Please don't give today today. Yeah, it's donk here today
for Thursday, October fourteenth, goes to the five individuals who
are hit with terrico over what law enforcement is calling
a mob style attack on a rapper known as FBG Duck.
The rico, a law of fetch, first aimed at prosecutors,

(56:53):
is now I mean aimed at gangsters. It is now
being used to prosecute these men. Okay, I'm reading the
article on ABC seven and his very descriptive descriptive. Whoever
wrote this did the phenomenal job, they said on August four,
twenty twenty, it looked like an old time out for
the attack on Chicago's Oak Street. Two attack cars, four shooters,
and a hell of bullets. But the target wasn't a

(57:15):
nineteen thirties gangster. It was a new millennium rapper FBG Duck.
Investigators and city officials say he was a gang member
whose videos had earth members of a rival gang. Five
of the alleged rival gang member staying charged with his
killing under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, commonly
called the Rico, and I'm not talking about love. There

(57:37):
is nothing to love about the Rico. Kay. The law
was created in nineteen seventy that helped dismantle traditional organized crime.
All right. The US Attorney's Office for the Northern District
of Illinois said the five suspects are members of the
Old Block Street Gang. FED said. The reason that this
is charged federally is that we were able to establish
evidence that there was a racketeering enterprise here that was involved,

(58:00):
and this murder was done in furtherance of that. These
brothers range in age of twenty two, thirty, twenty eight,
thirty and twenty two young brothers man. The indictment also
includes you know, charges for fire arm violations and assaults
in the age of racketeering. This was a collaboration between federal, state, county,

(58:20):
and local law enforcement. Why am I telling you all
of this because I want all you brothers and some
sisters who are number one committing in these crimes, Because
I mean, that's actually where it begins, the fact that
these crimes happened in the first place. But that's because
of a deep social economic issues. Some of these brothers
never stood a chance because they have never been afforded
the opportunity to do anything better, which is why I
don't understand why they constantly cut their noses off despite

(58:42):
their face. See, you're taking out brothers like FPG Duck,
But do you realize f G. Duck might be your
ticket out the hood? He might be your ticket to
a better life. Him prospering would open the doors of
opportunity for so many people, especially people who come from
you know where he's from. This is what I really
don't understand about these types of killings. Why would you
take out the very person God may have sent to

(59:05):
change your circumstances. Now, not only did you stop progress
for your whole city. Okay, you go in the prison. Okay,
you and your guys are going to spend the rest
of your natural lives and the penitentiary. All right. Now,
that's just one part of this donk here today, because
the other thing that confuses me even more than the
senseless killings is why or why do you rappers get
online and tell on yourselves. Okay, your uncle Charloman getting

(59:29):
on this radio for years telling you to cut that out.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy when y'all due because
you make law enforcement's job so easy, and I want
that criminal element off the screet as well. But what
part of your brain makes you think that's okay. I've
been on this radio for years telling you that what
you do online will get you jammed up offline. FBI
stands for Facebook and Instagram. The feeds. Okay, all you

(59:51):
rappers who get on these social media platforms and talk
about your ops, you unkilled. The feeds are listening, they're watching.
All these rappers will get on these social media platforms
and talk about smoking, smoking on yapps, smoking yaps, pack
or whatever the hell y'all young boys say. In the
words of Charles Barkley, I can't rantee, I grant you

(01:00:13):
going to prison. Okay, don't believe me. Well, this is
your attorney, US attorney John Lausch speaking about the arrest
in federal charges in connection with the shooting and murder
of FBG Duck. Listen, what's happening on social media and
what's happening and music videos that are on YouTube, particularly
in the drill rap genre. It shows you what's happening

(01:00:35):
in this city, which is that people are threatening to
commit to commit acts of violence and then either bragging
about acts of violence or talking about how they're going
to retaliate for other acts of violence. And it's happening
on a regular basis. And so again that is why
it is significant that you know, as law enforcement, we're
able to investigate and then ultimately hold people accountable for

(01:00:56):
their acts they're committing. M y'all are making lawfuls his
job so easy. I mean, number one, like I said,
I wish y'all didn't commit the crimes in the first place.
I wish we had more opportunities to give these brothers
so they don't commit these crimes in the first place.
I wish these brothers had more access than mental healthcare
resources so they could deal with their traumas. So we
don't you ever get to this point to where they're

(01:01:16):
projecting their pain on to other people and continuing to
murder each other. But when we get here, when we
get here and these things do happen, why are y'all
on social media and in the studio bragging about the
crimes you commit. Y'all hate snitches, but you guys are
the snitches, and y'all are literally so important to law enforcement.
Let's go to ABC seven Chicago for the report to confirm.

(01:01:39):
Late this afternoon, the I team talking with Chicago criminal
defense attorney Tony Thudford about what he says is one
of the most powerful tools prosecutors have. There's a lot
of allegations of back and forth online or threats online,
of videos posted back and forth back then led to retaliation,
allegedly one of the most powerful tools law enforcement has.

(01:02:03):
It's y'all niggas back and forth online. It's just all bad.
You know. I'm actually glad that it's that easy for
law enforcement to lock you up because maybe, just maybe
it will make y'all think twice about committing these crimes
in the first place. Why are y'all doing this? Why
is it for social media attention? Huh? Because life for likes.

(01:02:26):
It's not a fair trade. Please give these five brothers
who are all hit with the RICO over FPG duck
the biggest he are all right, Well, thank you for
that dunk to day up now brought you broadband bloods
and cyber cripts. Gotta stop. Ask a yee eight hundred
five eight five one O five one. If you need

(01:02:47):
relationship advice to any type of advice, call ye now.
It's the breakfast Club. Good morning, What what what? What
you gonna know? Baby mama issues sneak some words of wisdom?
All up now for asking eight hundred five eighty five
one hive want the breakfast club, the relationship advice, the

(01:03:07):
personal advice, just the real advice. Haul up man for
asking wanting. Everybody is dj Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
We all the breakfast club. It's time for asking Yellow.
Who's this? Thank? What's your question for you? I had
a question. I've been I've been friends with guy for
sixteen years. We just started making it seriously a year ago.

(01:03:32):
I've on't eve been to this place three times, and
he's been to my house every day. So wait, wait,
wait you guys were friends for sixteen years and then
you just recently started dating, like yeah, made it more
than what friends? Yeah? Okay, and he comes to see
me every day, but he don't invite me down. But

(01:03:53):
you've been to his house before, yeah I have. How
does it look? Is it something that maybe he your
house is very nicer and more come? Oh his house? No? No, no, no,
his house? Yeah, I have their room, gave the room
bard he has way more denying. Now have you told
him before, have you ever invited yourself up, like I'm
gonna come over there? Why don't we come to your

(01:04:13):
house this weekend? I have? Sorry, he is like, come on,
So why don't? So what's the problem. Why don't you go?
I have? But it's not it ended up when it
comes down to it, it's something you gotta do or
something I think he got. Some might say with him,
but you won't. Oh so he'll say come on, but
then at the last minute cancel. Right. Yeah, that sound

(01:04:34):
a little sneaky and suspicious to me. Does he have children? Yes,
you do, and what's the situation with the mothers? That's
how we ended up where we had? They broke up. Okay,
so you think maybe there's still some that she used
to live with him? There no that he moved out
of there too some place yet. Now, man, it's never
good to have these suspicions, and the only way that

(01:04:55):
you can find out what's going on is to really
confront them. Have you ever asked him, how come every
time you, you know, I say I'm gonna come over,
at the last minute, you canceled on me. It feels suspicious, right,
But I think it's not the big girl. Okay, why
do you think that I ask the one thing about Okay,
let's say he went out of terror when you can,
but he said he was wrong with an unstate. He

(01:05:17):
went out or waiting with it. But then let's say
a couple of weeks I asked for he caught her
his tee. He didn't power it. Okay, so you kind
of know he's cheating, Yeah, but I don't. I don't know,
but I got a feeling. You know, you've known this
man for sixteen years, you sleep with him, you should

(01:05:38):
have no problem asking him anything that you need to
know because this is all about you also protecting yourself
right because he's saying it so fardy. So that's basically
what I go with. So ultimatum here is this, like
I need to be able to come to your house,
feel comfortable, feel invited, and know that there's nothing going on.
And that's what I need for me to feel like

(01:06:00):
in this relationship we can continue further. You know what's
going on. I would be like, so this weekend, I'm
gonna spend the weekend there. We're gonna have a staycation
at your home. We could cook together, Let's watch some movies.
The new season of You is coming on Netflix. Whatever
it is that you need to do, but tell him.
And if you cancer like you don't have kids, get

(01:06:23):
you say all right, well he needs to give you
a date and stick to it. If that means one
day during the week, if that means next weekend, whatever,
and he has to stick to it and tell him
if he cancels, and you're really gonna be feeling like
he's not being honest with you, and that's not what
you signed up for. Thank you, okay, because people will
keep on doing to you what you allow. Right, I'm

(01:06:45):
not getting mistreated. I I who don't know what's going
on the home listen. Mistreated can also be that you
being real sneaky and suspicious and I can't come to
your house and it feels like something else is going
on and you're not being straight up with me. Right,
So if you're uncomfortable enough to call here to talk
about it, then I think it's something that has to

(01:07:05):
be taken care of a handle, and I don't think
you'll be asking for too much. Schedule a date that
I'm coming there and we're gonna stick to it, and
I want to feel more comfortable in your house just
like you comfortable in my house? All right, all right,
good luck, all right? Ask ye eight on't dream five
eight five one oh five one if you need relationship
advice and any type of advice. He e, Now it's

(01:07:26):
the Breakfast Club. Good morning. I'm gonna keep some real
advice with Angela ye gets ask ye morning. Everybody is
DJ Envy and Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy we are
the Breakfast Club were in the middle of asking yee, hello,
who's this are you doing? This is Joseph Gas in Atlanta.
What's up? Bro? What's your question for you? All right?

(01:07:47):
For my question is, um, what do you do when
you're in a situation where you were kind of dealing
with this very known popular woman like that? Okay, Um,
and y'all were just doing y'all thing, you know, you would,
you know, she needed her back blown out whenever you
know you're providing that service or whatever. And but y'all
not in a relationship, okay. And all she sees you

(01:08:09):
get kind of attention and love and different things like that,
and then all of a sudden she's doing stuff. You know,
she ain't got my Instagram hacked or whatever. So you know,
I had a good little following. You know what I'm saying,
I had to redo it JayR Gasby by the way,
But she's just doing stuff and I'm just trying to
figure out how do I get on this map? Okay? So,
pol So you were dealing with this woman. Is she

(01:08:31):
a celebrity or I guess you yeah, neither. But so
she has enough pull to get your Instagram hacked? Absolutely?
Why she being Why is she being self vindictive towards you?
Like I said, I think she like wants that Kake
needed to saything like she wants me to you know,
deal with her on a RELATIONSHIPIP, we need in a relationship, right?

(01:08:51):
And what else is she doing besides that? I mean
she's blocking acting gigs and things like that. You know, Um,
she's just wherever I'm trying to make advances to, like,
she's just popping up. And when I say her, not
her in the flesh, but her work for Minion, she's
doing something. She's doing some things behind the scenes to you. Yeah,
she's doing the strings. You know what I mean? Do
you have some sing do you have some good connections

(01:09:13):
already yourself? No? I don't see I'm like I'm fresh
in it, you know what I'm saying. I'm just pure,
you know, fresh in it, doing my thing, new in it,
and I'm you know, making ground and things like that.
And so when she came into picture, I kind of
made it adamant, like, look, I'm not dealing with you
because of this. You know, we just we like each
other and we can get anyway each other. But you know,

(01:09:34):
she's always kind of been like, well, I can help
you do this, and I can help you do this.
And I always thought in my mind, if I do that,
it's gonna be like a kind of like a paid
service based situation. Right. You know, I'm doing this for you,
you're doing after me. I didn't never want that. I
wanted to both just right off the strength of Joseph's guest,
you know, she's messed with me, okay, And so now
you got yourself in a messed up situation, a slightly

(01:09:56):
kind of thin line between love and hate where she's
sabotaging things that you have going on. Yeah, love and hater. Listen. Unfortunately,
things like that are difficult because, like you said, you
don't have a lot of great connections in the business,
and I think you gotta be honest, like at certain
times when somebody's doing something to you that's affecting your
livelihood and your career, I think people are sympathetic to that,

(01:10:20):
and so when you see it happening, I think you
should address it. And you should also just kind of
kind of keep a record of everything that she's been doing,
because I feel like, if you're really talented, it's gonna
work for you. There's no way she can close every
door for you. And I understand it can be disheartening
because it's more difficult the path that you have to go.
And I don't know if you even having a conversation

(01:10:41):
with her is going to do anything, because sometimes when
people act that way, you know they're trying to get
that reaction out of you and they're not going to
stop until they move on to something else. So it
might be something that is you know, this is happening
temporarily right now while her feelings are hurt, or you know,
she's trying to get revenge on you for whatever reason.
But all I can say is try to be really
private about what you're doing too, as far as any

(01:11:04):
auditions that you're going on, any connections that you make
just try to really move quietly behind the scene so
that she doesn't even know what you're doing. Yeah, I
ain't gonna this one got reached. I can't. I can't
tell you the name, like it's that bad, Like this
one got reached me, so you know. But um, but
now I feel what you're saying. You know, just basically
just despite what she's doing, just keep kind of moving

(01:11:24):
how I'm moving. Yeah, you can't let that stop you.
You gotta keep her. And if there's anybody you know
that's close to her that can rationalize and reason to her.
Because people are doing stuff like that, it will come
to light. I called the best of the club on purpose, y'all.
Y'all know it, Like the name, You know what I'm saying.
But that's why that's why I came here. I mean,

(01:11:45):
oh hopefully you know, maybe you should hear this and
be like, Okay, maybe I need to you know, I
don't know something. Yeah, there might be somebody that could
actually that you know, who's close to her, that could
speak to her and be like, yo, chill out, what's
your what's your Instagram? So people can see you and
know who you are? All right, So my name is
Joseph Gast. My Instagram is JR Gasty. That's j R

(01:12:06):
g eight d b y all right, no, well, I
wish you luck. All I can say is be private
about what you have moving and shaking behind the scenes
and keep going. No doubt I appreciate that. And Envy
Charlote Magne was good. I gotta still out with the
level ten. You know what I'm saying, Level eight, bro yah.
I got people calling y'all out here on different platforms,

(01:12:28):

for them because they're never gonna go back to a
level five. That nothing no matter. I mean that. We
gotta call the fada level eight. I feel you, king,
we could tone it down to able, we'll never get back.
We'll never get to a five. Huh. He ain't talking.

October twenty fourth. One of my favorite shows. So I'm
really excited for the last season. Yes, of Curb Your Enthusiasm.
It's a good time to go back and revisit the
last season. It'll be interesting to see how they tackle
things because there's a lot of politically incorrect things that
happens on that show, even if you watch the last episode,
the finale from season ten. But I mean a good

(01:14:57):
thing about Curve like, they can address all of you

(01:15:20):
Craig recently did an interview. He was on Lunch with
Bruce and here's what he had to say about why
he likes going to gay bars more than heater row bars.
I've been going to gay bars for as long as
I can remember, and one of the reasons because I
don't get into fight in gay that often, the aggressive
swinging right hetra bars. I just got very sick of

(01:15:41):
as as a kid because it was like, I don't
want to get I don't want to end up even
in a punch up, and I did that would happen
right along. Okay, if that's his reasoning, sure, so okay,
he goes just because if you like gay bars, just
say you like going to gay bars. That I mean that,
you know, that's his opinion. Didn't make much sense to me.

(01:16:04):
But hey, but I would say this, and he said
this also that he meets girls there because there's a
lot of girls there for exactly the same reason that
I was there. Right, But he's acting like testosterone wouldn't
exist in the gay bar. These these they're still ment
gay men are still ment. Well this is his experience,
So I don't know. I just don't agree with that,
Like I don't agree with the fact that there's no testosterone.

(01:16:25):
Shut up. I mean, if you saw a guy you
knew in a gay bar, listen, I say this. I've
gone to gay bars like with my friends. Is very chill,
no issues, It's the same thing. Good music and but
you can still get into a fighting gay bar. Yeah
you can't. I'm sure it's this alcohol. It's alcohol, it's testosterone,
like you can still I'm saying it's more aggressive, and

(01:16:45):
he said it's a lot of d swinging and headed robars.
So I don't know. I would think you'll be more
I don't think he means it like that. All right, now, speak, Well,
Sergebacca is developing an animated kids series. Then you want
to say, Chie, we don't have that audio. Still is
something you want to say, we don't have the audio, y'all.

(01:17:07):
Don't let nothing die on this show. Nothing, y'n't let
it die in life? All right? Well, his story is
being turned into an animated kid series after he had
just struck a deal with Studio seventy one, So congratulations

tough childhood in Africa, including his father being in prison.
In the second Congo ward to become an NBA champion

I'm sure it's great brother right there? Man? What did
you ask him? Shut up? That's all I was asking
him a question on behalf of m No No. I

(01:17:51):
remember now he was wearing great sweatpants and he was like, yeah,
was that all you brought? That's not true, that's not true.
My niece sim Seema was asking and I asked for her.
That's what I get if that was all there in
this webtpants. We have to verify this with her because
she may say she never asked that. We actually have
the order? Can we here? Can we play that part?
I want to know that on you. You see what

(01:18:14):
I said. I said, a lot of women out there
that want to know. Okay, maybe you shouldn't ask that question.
I asked the tough questions. I questions people. Those are
hard questions, Okay, I asked the questions people want to know.
What if he would have said, it's not listen the
name of his shows, how hungry are you? It comes on?

(01:18:35):
He said it was gay? So what all? Right? Continue
of his show? Definitely attend man. When it comes to games,

million dollars for spring Hill, and they still have the
majority here and a CEO, Maverick Carter. And they're also
it looks like going into gaming. So they've also included
an announcement with Epic Games as well. So I love

(01:19:22):
did not give or disclose the size of the steak
on the table, but they did say that Lebron and
Maverick do maintain controlling interest. They only founded that in
twenty twenty. By the way, I love it. So I

five million dollars the next year is amazing. So what

doctor Alfie Breeland Noble, internationally recognized scientists, author, speaker, media contributor,
founder of the Acoma Project, in chief, Mental Wellness Officer
or the Mental Wealth Alliance. Doctor Alfie Breeland Noble. What's happening.

(01:20:52):
It's all good. I'm here with you, beautiful people. I
am grateful. I am so excited and like just my
spirit is just so filled, Like I just I have
peace today because of what we did yesterday. The mental effectsful. Yeah,
absolutely yeah, it was your vision and your passion, and
you never take the flowers. But I'm just gonna keep
throwing them at you and maybe one of them stick

(01:21:13):
on you. The idea to bring a bunch of black
folks and other folks who love black folks together to
just focus on our healing and our wellness and seeing
ourselves and loving ourselves, and it was, it was so beautiful.
So I can't execute none of that without you. Man,
Come on, all I do is say, hey, I think
we should do this. It happened, and it happened. I

(01:21:36):
get out the way, and then oh, okay this when
we were doing this, oh okay, great. Yeah. I don't
even have the words. It was just I've gotten so
many emails even this morning. I got emails last night.
One person even said you all saved my life. That
was the whatever it is the caption for his you know,
the title for his email, and just want on to
talk about. I think his name was justin how being

(01:21:58):
in that space and being in that environment and you
being there specifically and being such a kind I'm big
on kindness. I don't like fake You're never fake. You
just always who you are. And I think that you
showing up in that way just was so healing for
so many people. And you know, people don't know this.
I stood there with you. You stay like an extra

(01:22:20):
hour in ten minutes, and literally everybody who was in
that line. This makes me a little teared. You stay
and talk to them. People don't do stuff like that, right,
And even just you've seen you know, I have this
thing I always say, everybody wants to feel seen, heard
and they want to feel valued. And that's what you
did for people yesterday. So I just appreciate you so
much for that. I appreciate you. Queen. Why do you

(01:22:41):
think now is the time that we're having these conversations
about black mental health. I think a big part of
it is quarantine and what happened and what we all
watched with our brother George Floyd being murdered. The precursor
to a lot of it was you and a few
other people like you strategically coming out. And you know,

(01:23:02):
I'm not saying there was a strategy like you went
for that as your goal, but I think the ultimate
result of it was being clear about you have your
own issues and struggles and concerns around mental health. I
try to be very open with people and say anxiety
is something that I manage because I need people to
see right, you need to see a face, this is
what anxiety looks like. And I think that all of

(01:23:23):
those things together were what I call an awful perfect
storm of just I don't know, there was a need
and so now became the time that we talked about
We were all stuck in the house, we were all
dealing with it. We saw a thirty percent rise in
emergency room visits among young people K through twelve, mostly
high school kids going to emergency rooms for psychiatric emergencies

(01:23:43):
during quarantine. And so I think it was just too
many things together that made all of us feel like
we have to talk about this now. Well, doctor Alfie,
what contributed to you doing this work that you've been
doing for so long. Also, it was my childhood. I
grew up in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I'm from the same
area as for Real and Chad, the Neptunes and Timberland.
Like literally, we all grew up within like a five

(01:24:05):
mile radius of each other. And I'm sure they would
say Virginia Beach was a weird place to grow up
as a black kid, especially if you were a talented
black kid in any kind of way, and so I
think a lot of it was that, and that for me,
my journey began in knowing that in my household, my
parents really valued me. My mom's deceased, my dad lives
with me now, and outside the house it was a struggle,

(01:24:27):
and so I wanted to always be a resource where
young people could come to me and they wouldn't have
to struggle in the ways that I struggled outside the house,
particularly young people of color and black young people. So
that was where my journey started. And I just had
a lot of people pour into me. My godmother, doctor
Mona Thornton, as an early childhood development professor, and she
poured into me and just told me it was something

(01:24:48):
I could do, and that really was what it was
for me. So I am truly living in my purpose now.
Now can you tell us about the ACOMA Project. Oh, absolutely,
one of my favorite things in the world. So the
ACOMMA Project used to be my research lab when I
was an academic, and then over the years, I decided
that the same work that I was doing, which is
in reducing mental health disparities for black youth and youth

(01:25:11):
of color. It's really less about how much of the
illness like depression, anxiety, PTSD, some of these other OCD
those kinds of things shows up in people. It's really
more about who gets care and who doesn't, and what's
the quality of care that they get. So the Acoma
Project is really about reducing the discrepancies between good quality
care and bad quality care, who has access to care

(01:25:33):
and who doesn't. And so the Acoma Project became a
five O, one C three And we're founded on three pillars.
We raise consciousness, we empower people, and we change the
system because at the end of the day, part of
our mission is we believe every young person deserves the
right to live unapologetically and authentically as exactly who they are.

(01:25:54):
And they can't live like that if they're drowning and
struggling under mental illness. So that's who we are and
that's what we do. Let's talk a little mental health alliance. Yes,
what is the Mental Health Aliance about? Yes? So, the
Mental Wealth Alliance is something I'm so proud to be
a part of as the Chief Mental Health Officer. The
Mental Wealth Alliance stands on three pillars, Trained, treat, and
teach and it's all about getting black people. Now, this

(01:26:16):
is your vision black folks specifically the help that they
need to thrive. Right. And so when we talk about train, treat,
and teach, we're talking about teaching people skills and tools
to take care of themselves. Right. We want stuff that's
culturally specific, that's relevant for Black people, and that really
addresses our needs. When we talk about training, that's building

(01:26:37):
up the next generation of black mental health providers to
provide the care. Because we know that in pretty much
every profession, whether it's psychology, social work, you know, whatever
it is, master's level counselors, less than five percent of
those providers are black. So it's training, it's treating, and
it's teaching, and the treating part is making sure that
everybody gets the care that they need. So we want

(01:26:58):
to teach people how to take care of themselves. We
want to generate and create the next generation of providers,
and we want to provide that treatment for people. So
one example is we have the Collaborative for Black Mental Health,
and that collaborative is seven or eight different organizations. ACOMA
is proud to be a part and each of these
organizations to bring something unique to the treatment of or

(01:27:20):
the engagement around black mental health. So Shanty dos silence
to shame. Shouts out to Shanty, she's a beautiful or
yes she's beautiful. Yes, yes, she was fantastic. We love
Shanty Alchemy Health Ryan Mundy, which is like an alternative
form of care. The Black Mental Health Alliance, shouts out
Andrew Brown and those folks. And so you have lots

(01:27:40):
of folks who you know, their investment is in black
folks mental health, and the Mental Health Alliance is a
foundation that's a hub to provide support and to provide
a base for all of these people, all these organizations
to be able to thrive. Absolutely. Yeah, well doctor Alphie Brelan, no,
will tell them how to support the Acoma Project, tell
them how to support the Mental Health Alliances. Yes, so
