I did read that because they say it's gonna be
colder in Chicago than it is an article. Wow, and
let me tell you something. Yeah, so and relatively speaking,
it's not that cold compared to what it could be.

(01:47):
Like a man, I was in Detroit over the weekend
last weekend and I was like, I think I have
frost bite, but my hands were all numb and everything,
and everybody's like, you don't have frost bite. What exactly
is frost by that? When your hands turned the ice
cartoon and then break off, they turned black. I was
looking at pictures of it this morning, and we're gonna
talk about it more during front page news. Just science
that you're getting fro us, But I just dont you

(02:08):

your hand your fingers turned black, and I think I read.
I read an article yesterday that I said, like fourteen
or fifteen homeless people were found dead in Chicago because
of the freedom temperatures. Yeah, it's really bad. So they
said even the US Postal Service won't be going out
in some places because the weather is so terrible. Minnesota
could be seventy degrees below the wind show. We'll make

(02:29):
sure you put on your big coat. Okay, that's what
my wife said to me this morning fall left the house.
She said, you ain't got no cold longer than that?

Co owner of Philadelphia seventy six is Michael Rubin. Michael Ruben,
he's part of the whole reform initiative with Meek Mill. Okay,
if you don't have alliance, if you don't know who
Michael Rubin is, he's one of the rich white guys
that's around Meek Mill. Mill said, maybe it's the Michael Rubins,
all the Robert Crafts, and he's been a businessman since

(03:13):
he was like eight years old. Very interesting story. He
has net worth of a few billion dollars, but you
know who's counting his pocket He's not. You don't even
want to talk about that, I bet. But more importantly,
it's about the Reform Alliance that he'll be up here discussing,
among other things, and how did it even get involved
in that? You know, he's going to talk about his
aha moment when he realized about the injustices that black
people have to face here in America. Yes, Also, you

(03:36):
know we are going to do front page News, and
since we're talking about injustices, we're going to talk about
Jesse Smillett. Because this was really sad. This really hurt
my heart because I've done several events with him. He's
been up here on the Breakfast Club, we watched him
on Empire. Really a great person and the fact that
we live in a country where people still think like
this under this disgusting. We'll discuss that page News. Also,

(03:57):
all right, it's the World's most dangerous more to show.
It's Wednesday, Cass, what day it is? Cass what day
it is. Let's talk morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlomagne and the guy. We are the breakfast Club. Let's
get in some front page news. It's cold outside. I

(04:18):
just want to tell everybody give yourself extra time. A
lot of schools are opening late. It's nasty out on speed.
My daughter school we got canceled this morning. Cancel really, yes, sir.
They sent me the text message on the way in,
but I already had her not going to day anyway,
because it's like a bunch of kids at our school
got the flu, like literally late. Everybody's thirteen kids home
because of the flu. So I was like, oh, well,

(04:38):
you're staying home. The rest of My daughter had the flu,
and we actually didn't know. We just thought she was sick.
She wasn't eating, and we took her to the hospital
and then they said she actually was coming off of
the flu. So we were very lucky. So it works
out because she won't be missing a day because they
cancel school anyway. There you go, Well, let's get in
some front page news. What we're talking about you, Well,
we were talking about the weather. As you said, it
is freezing outside. It's extreme weather. If you have a flight,

(04:59):
some flight have been canceled. They said there's about twenty
seven hundred flights that were canceled. A lot of them
were going in and out of Chicago airports. Even Amtrack's
not going to Chicago right now. They're saying the weather
it's so extreme in Chicago. Now, this weather is going
to affect so much of our population, seventy two percent
of the continental US population. We'll see those temperatures drop
below freezing over the next few days, so that affects

(05:21):
a lot of us. We said, the weather so bad,
even the US Postal Service is not going to be
going out as well. So just make sure you check
your flights. I know people are flying to Atlanta. Just
make sure if you got a flight, how's your flight? Um,
so far it's fine, Yeah, so far, so good. I'm
leaving today. So it's like, what does negative seventy degrees

(05:42):
feel like? I don't want to know. And be careful
with for us, but they said, you can get first
fight in just minutes, so in a lot of places,
just make sure you are bundleduck, keep your hands bundled up,
your your feet, your ears, everything. I just showing Denver
it was negative fifty and you couldn't breathe. Like walking,
you couldn't breathe. It it felt like your breath was
frosch and every time you try, it's like it was.
I don't I'm not a smoker, but I would take

(06:04):
it as somebody that smoked a lot and just ran
up a stairs and really couldn't catch their breath and
got that. Gotta be a different level of shrinkage, right,
like very, I didn't check. I wasn't thinking about my
shrinking everything about your shrinkage, Bro, I'm just saying, I
gotta be very I'm not thinking about my penis when
it's very humbly. All right. Now, let's talk about Jesse Smillett.
This was really start from Empire, UM and he's openly gay.

(06:24):
He also plays a gay character on the show Empire.
And according to UH sources, they're saying that he was
going down to get a sandwich from subway. He was hungry,
and that's when he was brutally attacked. Now, this attack
happened by according to police, the police department in Chicago.
They said that, um, he was going to go out

(06:44):
and they were yelling homophobic slurs at him. They recognized
him from Empire. They had a Maga hats on. They screamed,
this is Maga country. They were actually they were wearing
ski masks and they was they said, this is Maga country.
This is what they were screaming at him. They aren't
you that? And they yelled at a gay slur. Obviously
pre plan empire, obviously pre planning. They were waiting for him,

(07:06):
which is so sad. I mean, they could have been playing.
They put a rope around his neck. Who carries bleach
with them? Like who walks around with bleach? You know
what I mean? It's like nobody walks around with bleaches,
walks around with a noose. That's what I'm saying. That's
what I said it. They was probably waiting on him,
pre playing. But they said he had just landed. Though
he just landed with the subway at like two in
the morning. I don't know. Let they follow him Homelet

(07:26):
thing was waiting at his house? Maybe they were. And
you know, you have been getting all kinds of death
threats and letters saying you will die black gaysler word
And that letter was sent eight days ago to the
Fox studios in Chicago, now here is what Lee Daniels
had to say. Jesse, you are my son. You didn't deserve,
nor anybody deserves, to have a noose put around your neck,

(07:48):
to have bleach thrown on you, to be called die
or whatever they said to you. It starts at home. Yo.
We have to love each other regardless of what sexual
orientation we are, and no racist can come in and
do the things that they did to you. Hold your
head up, Jesse, It's just another day in America. Tay
something Man, twenty nineteen. This story sounds unbelievable, especially being

(08:11):
at the Chicago Maga Country. Now, if it was in
the South, I would say it sounds about right, but
hate crimes have been on the rise in most major cities.
It just sounds like something you would see in a
movie on a TV show, But sadly it's not his
real life. So I'm sending positive energy to Jesse, and
I hope to people who did that too, you get shot.
All right, Well, that is your front page news, and
we'll be talking more about this this morning and letting
you know any details that we might have to give

(08:33):

(10:00):
Listen though, man, another one just called real quickness. Shout
out to Justse Smullett. And everybody knows the story by now.

by maga hat wearing homophobia slur spewing white man. But
we don't know if he was wearing the maga hat. Well,

You know, thank God for that that he didn't end
up another hashtag. He didn't end up did but they
didn't do whatever you're trying to do to him, and
hopefully and hopefully the people who did that to him
get shot. And then I'm just reading through the comments

(10:42):
for like certain blogs, and I just see people divided
whether it was racism or whether it was homophobia. You know,
it was a hate crime on a black gay man.
That's that's the only thing you even though, And just
like all my black men and my black woman, even
with the story of the black woman who said she

Eight hundred and five eight five one oh five one.
If you need to vent, hit us up right now.
Now you we got rumors on the way. Yes, we'll
be talking about the Wendy Williams show. What is the
plan for that show? Right now, we'll tell you what

(17:13):
star is taking over the duties in the meantime while
she's trying to get it together. All right, we'll get
into all that when we come back. Keep a lock.
This the Breakfast Club. Good morning, The Breakfast Club Morning.
Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get to these rumors.
Let's talking Nick Cannon, She's filling the tea. This is

(17:37):
the rumor report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
All Right, well, Nick Cannon, first of all, is gonna
be taking over Wendy Williams duties for her show on
February fourth, fifth, and sixth. We already told you that
Wendy Williams family has announced that she's recovering from her
fractured shoulder. She's been in the hospital as a result
of symptoms from her Graves disease, and the staff doesn't

(18:00):
want to get back to work, so everybody's hoping that
she's well. They said, the mood of the set is good.
They want money to get better, but in the meantime,
that's one of the feelings. Did she say fractured her shoulder. No, No,
she has not. Don't spoke anything so anything. I don't think. Yeah,
she's I mean, you know, it's been this has been
ongoing since she fractured her shoulder in December and then
she was slurring her words on the air. She said

(18:21):
it was the pain killers and she was taking those
painkillers to treat her fracture. That's right, Nick, Well, Nick,
you're going in you wear that turban and skid and
white people in daytime, Okay, Well, it's interesting you say that.
Cousin Nick Cannon has an interview with guests of Rizza Islam.
Now that is Rizza Islam is a humanitarian. He's also
a soldier under the Honorable Minister Lewis Farrakhan. He's an educator,

(18:43):
an activist. And they were discussing black men and white women.
Now here is what Nick Cannon had to say about
dating white women. White women are looked at as success
because in America, we see a white woman. I couldn't
have you, My daddy couldn't even my granddaddy couldn't have
I would get killed even king at you. People. If
they thought I whistled at you, they would murder me.

(19:04):
So now if I played for the NBA, I want
them all and I could afford them all. That's what
That's what they're thinking. Nick got a step. That's such
an old, outdated way of thinking. That's the zoot suit
conk Arab mentality, that's an eighties mentality. Like we really
got to stop pushing narratives that have clearly changed in
our society. Like we're so caught up on what was,
you're not paying attention to what is. Like I've told

(19:25):
y'all before like, like, if you go to black demographics
dot Com, eighty five percent of all black men have
a black wife and ninety percent of black women have
black husbands. And if you want to talk about athletes
and entertainers, just look at twenty nineteen. Lebron got a
black wife, Kevin Hart got a second black wife, Jay
z got a black wife, Chris Paul got a black wife,
The Washington got a black wife, way he got a
black wife. His guest in the Nation of Islam is

(19:47):
An Islam had to say in response, the black woman
who has been there for us the whole damn time,
Who was there when us when we were getting lynched,
Who was there for us when we were getting whipped
every day, Who was there for us to heal our wound,
to give us consolation of mind, to bring us peace
in quieter mind, to help us to get through another day.
If you can give up on a black woman so easily,

(20:08):
you don't deserve no other woman, because you have demonstrated
that you can't give enough love to the number one
who needs it the most. Mars Chesterner got a black wife,
Well Smith got a black wife, or Cojo got a
black wife, symbol exactly success they used to be. Listen,
is a fact that the zoot suit conc air mentality, Yes,

(20:29):
but the narrative has totally changed. In twenty nineteen. All right, Bron,
let's talk about what Lebron has done for Octavia Spencer.
They worked on the biopic about Madame CJ. Walker, who
was in America's first black self made millionaire. At the
Sundance Film Festival, she was discussing how Lebron actually intervened
to help her negotiate her deal. For Madam CJ. She said,

(20:51):
we need all our male counterparts, counterparts to be in
the fight with us, and he intervened to make sure
that she was going to get the pay that she deserved.
And you know, Octavia Spencer has been very vocal about
that as well. All right, now, let's talk about j Low.
I don't know if you guys have seen how incredible
that she looks. How can you notice? But I'm gonna

(21:11):
tell you what she just did, because she just did
a ten day no sugar, no carbs diet challenge. So
that's why she's extra avs, muscles and all of that.
And she posted a picture which did he liked and uh,
A Rod had to check him after that. He did, Yeah,
you didn't see that, nor og with the hard eyes?
Where did Jlo walking with that croptop one? Or that
was not New York's la. I'm sure Nott in Minnesota.

(21:35):
It's not in Chicago, it's not in Detroit, all right.
So anyway, she tried to actually recruit a bunch of
people to join her in this ten day no carbs,
no Sugar challenge. What did a say? When did he said?
Oh my gosh, heart, heart heart. He said yeah, he
said something like I'm a lucky guy. Oh yeah, absolutely yourself.
Did he relax? I see you think did? He didn't

(21:56):
say nothing? But wow, eyes don't say why did he?
Diddy and Jaylo hadn't dated, we wouldn't have been looking
at it like nothing. Yes, we would have would have
looked at it regardless. And if I'm from a Rod,
I'm looking at it the same way. Stay in your lane, Jlo.
Further of all, we just heard Diddy complaining about being
too fat, the driving a Rolls Royce fandom with his
shirt off to get Jelo's attention. He should do the

(22:17):
no sugar nor he should. I'm sure he'll do it too.
I'm sure. No sugar, no cars, no rock for thirty days.
We should try that. I do that now, No sugar,
no cards. Absolutely. The only thing is I definitely eat
a lot of fruits. No fruit, got a lot of
sugar out. I mean I do, but it satural sugar,
snatural sugar. But you just can't overdo it, all right.
So they were talked about the side effects too, and
they said there's bad breath leg crams. According to medical professionals,

(22:40):
you got to make sure you're eat enough vegetables, a chicken,
enough water in a little carb diet because if you don't,
you won't be able to poop poo. So anyway, I'm
Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right,
thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back, we
got front pages. What we're talking about, Yes, we are
going to be talking about the weather. Of course. Also,
I was telling you yesterday about how you can actually
do that group FaceTime to call somebody and even if

(23:02):
they don't pick up, you can hear them and start talking.
But we'll tell you what happened now with Apple. Okay,
we'll get into that when we come back. Keep a
lock this to Breakfast Club. Good morning. I can't stand
the man. I can't. It got to be stopped. Why
did I in turn this make your rain on me
with honey packings? Yeah? Just throw a bunch of honey packings?
Did you like it? I mean, I'm putting it in
my tea? There you go? All right, Well morning everybody.

(23:23):
We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get into front page news. Yes, first,
let's talk about this weather. The weather is awful right now,
so you got to be really careful if you're traveling
this weekend. There's been over twenty seven hundred flights so
far that have been caned, so especially in the Chicago area.
They're staying in Chicago, amtracks not even running, so you
know it's cold, So just make sure you check out
what you're what's happening with your flight. They're saying in

(23:44):
Minnesota it's going to be negative seventy with the windshow factors.
So I read jesterday that fourteen homeless people died in Chicago.
I'm sure, I'm sure a lot of people will probably
die so cold. It is freezing out there right so
officials are warning there could be almost instant for us bite.
It's temperatures in the region are getting below zero, so
just be super careful when you're going out. Make sure

(24:05):
you're bundled up. If you don't have to go out,
it's a good time to stay in. Put on your
big coat, all right. We know your wife told you
that this morning when we put my long cold on. Yes,
I say it's not about length, but he didn't put
it said I know I'm married to you. All right. Now,
let's talk about Jesse Smillett and Empires are Jesse Smillett. Now,
Chicago police aren't investigating the attack. Now they're saying that

(24:25):
he did get some type of letters that were mailed
to Empire earlier in the week and those were some
threats made in the form of a letter toward him,
and now they're investigating what is possibly a hate crime.
He was in Chicago early Tuesday walking outside around two
am and then someone started shouting racial and homophobic slurs

(24:46):
at him. That's when two men attacked him. They poured
an unknown chemical substance on him, which they possibly say
could be bleached, and wrapped a rope around his neck.
According to Jesse Smillett, he told the police. They told
the police that you know they was bleached on him
possibly and that they yelled out Maga Country and the
rope was still around his neck when he was found.

(25:06):
According to officials, he did do a follow up interview
where he confirmed the Maga Country. Some people were saying
that didn't happen. He was found. I thought he walked
to the hospital. Yeah, they said when they found him
he still had a rope around There's so many different stories. Yeah,
but he did give that statement to the police for
he did say that the suspects did yell at Maga
Country now thirties do have surveillance images of him inside
of the subway restaurant before the attack, but they don't

(25:28):
have any video of the assailants. He was treated at
the hospital. They are taking this investigation very seriously and
they're treating it as a possible hate crime. Question why
did they keep saying impossible hate crist They're still investigating. Yeah,
but if he said that he got attacked to me
yell gay and racial slurs, isn't that a hate crime? Like?
Why is it possible? Or I don't get it. I mean,
I guess it's no crime. Did happen, crime happened, So

(25:50):
why is a possible hate crime if he said that's
what it was, That's what it was. Right now Here
is what Lee Daniels had to say. Jesse, you are
my son. You didn't deserve nor anybody serves to have
a noose put around your neck, to have bleach thrown
on you, to be called die or whatever they said
to you. It starts at home. Yo. We have to
love each other regardless of what sexual orientation we are,

(26:13):
and no racist can come in and do the things
that they did to you. Hold your head up, Jesse.
It's just another day in America. Man. It sounds like
something you would see in a movie on a TV
show over Sally's real life. So sending positive energy to Jesse,
and I hope the people who did that to him
get shot. And Lee Daniels is right, it does start
at home, because you know yesterday when I was I

(26:35):
dropped my daughter off at Chilean competition, and I was
going on my way to the gym, and I had
some sweatpants and a hoodie and a camouflage ten deep jacket.
You know, you dressed like that to go to the gym.
So I'm the I'm in the gym, and I take
a sip of water. And it's these two young white kids,
like young I'm talking about six or seven too, young
white boys. And he goes, I think I see a
criminal talking about you. Yes, so, And I'm like, I know,

(26:57):
I just hear what I think I think I heard.
So he said it again, this little friend. So I said, yo, bro,
all black people are not criminals, all right, okay? I
whoever taught you that is teaching you wrong? And then
I gave him a high five and then he goes,
oh it's got a high five. Wow. Literally, So it
just it changed just like that. But it does start
at home because somebody is teaching that little boy that

(27:17):
how do they know you steal from target? Shut up?
Because I mean you are a criminal? You do still
from target? You know what you know could be your
own people, you know, because they will be kind of right,
you know, people think about it like it would be
your own mean if you still are you a criminal? Right? Yes?
I do so you're criminal. He was like, here, that's right,
that's not that young man was right, that's not criminal.

(27:39):
That's probably he knows that criminal goes that criminal yew
people all right and just say, you know, apple has
disabled group FaceTime, So no more of those trying to
listen to a disabled this, disabled this group, your criminals
disabled this. I thought you stopped stealing your criminal all right,
and that is your front page news. Get my half five.
I just got a half five from criminal that I said,

(28:01):
all right, when we come back. When we come back,
we have of the sixies. Michael Ruben will be joining us.
We'll kick it with him. With Michael Rubin. If you
don't know who that is, that's one of the rich
white guys that be with Meek mill okay own a
coon of the Philadelphia seventy six. Is he's not a criminal.
Maybe it's the Michael Rubin's daughter, Robert Kraft. He probably
is a criminal. That probably I became a billionaire. We'll

(28:22):
find out, all right when we come back. It's the
breakfast club with j Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy
we are the breakfast club. We got a special guest
in the building. Might be the richest person that ever
been in the room. I think so. Then I hope
that actually why why I want to be the poorest
guy keeps doing better and better. The streets say you
a billionaire, billionaire, like a billionaire billion like a billionaire billionaire,

(28:45):
not net worth billionaire like real life liquid billionaire. Any
truth to these rumors? You know, I'll talk about just
about anything, but net worth is definitely not where I'm
gonna start. How's that for? You know, I want to
start because that's not how I want to make My
name is based on us. Yeah, bird, he likes to
talk about like success stories that I love, like good

(29:05):
American success. Of course, let's talk about that. How you started?
Because your story is really inspiring. So that started out?
Could you let him tell the story? You started the story? Kid?
Can you start your story as a kid, how you
got into the ski shopping? Yeah, well I could tell
you this. I was like a horrible athlete. I was
a terrible student, like Charlemagne. Yeah, which part the athlete.

(29:30):
The only thing I was good at was business, and
I was good at it from the time I was
a little kid. So like I literally when I was
eight years old, I had like three different business businesses.
I would go like door to door it was snowing,
I would get five kids to work for me. I'd
literally sell the snow shoveling. I loved those kids. By
the way, so hustling. Did you shovel the snow? You
had them shovel it and you were in charge. No,

(29:51):
I tell you athlete already. No, I have to be
an athlete. I would have had a heart attacker. Even
at that age, I was like Muslin Durance. I didn't
have enough muscle doors week because I'll tell you what,
I could sell those doors really quickly, and you know,
it's snowed, and we could do thousands of dollars in
businesses an eight year old, and I had all the
kids working for me. It was it was very efficient.
Where were you from, Pennsylvania? Yeah, from suburban Philadelphia. Yeah,

(30:12):
so every winner you would take up. When I went
to a ski camp one year and I came back
and this is really how the real business started. I
learned how to tune skis, and a friend of mine said, like, hey,
you love business. It's really the only thing you're good at.
You love skiing. Why don't you start a little ski
tuning shop in your parents' basement. I did that when
I was twelve, and then by the time I was fourteen,
I actually opened my first real retail ski store was

(30:34):
Eminence from my parents' house at twelve, at fourteen years old. Yeah,
I started in my basement at twelve, but away when
I was thirteen, I did twenty five thousand dollars in
my parents' basement. Damn, no overhead, no overhead, made fifteen grand.
Did you play taxes? That's a great question. Let me
let me say, Let me say this the grounds that
it could have criminated me, and I don't know. I'm

(30:54):
not gonna answer that question. From seven years and earlier
they came Yeah, I don't think so, but still me,
they may come after me, And I really don't know.
It was. I mean, I hate to admit him forty
six thous so it was like thirty three years ago.
But so when I was fourteen, I my first ski shop,
and being a fourteen year old only a ski shop,
you get a lot of media attention. So that helped
drive the business. And I did like one hundred and
twenty five thousand dollars in business and made a nice profit,

(31:17):
and then I got a little bit cocky. By the
time I was sixteen, I had a bigger ski shop
and at the end of the season didn't snow. So
I was literally sixteen years old, I had two hundred
thousand dollars in bills, I had one hundred and twenty
thousand dollars in inventory a brand new car. That's the
that's the story I've always come out of lane. I
actually did buy a Porsche as a fifteen year old,
even though it wasn't allowed to drive it here Pennsylvania.

(31:40):
The I mean, yeah, yeah, I need a couple drinks
before we start talking about that. I got perfect so,
so I had so, I had the ski shop. So
now I'm literally like basically bankrupt. And um in the
spring of when I was sixteen years old, I literally
got sued probably a hundred times. That's suit a fourteen

(32:00):
year old. They no one knew how old I was.
I was sixteen at this, Yeah, sixteen years old. I
owed two hundred thousand dollars to like one hundred and
fifty vendors, and each of the vendors assuming because I
didn't have the money to pay the bills. So now
I think I'm going bankrupt, and I hired a bankruptcy lawyer,
and the bankruptcy lawyers, going through this whole conversation says,
by the way, how old are you actually sixteen? He says, well,

(32:20):
that's the best new because I've ever heard. Because you're
not allowed to own money at sixteen, and so I
ended up getting very lucky. It's the first time I
ever went to my parents to borrow money. And I
went to my dad said, hey, I can get out
of this bankruptcy problem. I need a barrow thirty eight
thousand dollars, which was a ton of money. Thirty eight
thousand dollars tons of money. And my Dad's like, look,
it's a ton of money, but if you agree to
go to college, I'll end you the money. Two weeks later,

(32:42):
I find another ski shop that went bankrupt, two hundred
thousand dollars in inventory. They got sold for thirteen thousand
dollars in an auction. So I bought the ski shop
for I bought all the inventory for thirteen thousand dollars.
I said, Dad, great idea, I just I just bought
this two hundred thousand dollars inventory for thirteen thousand dollars.
He looks at me and says, there is no chance
I'm giving you another penny. You got yourself into this, Mesico,

(33:03):
figure it out. So I started at sixteen, So I
started going to all my neighbors, and I found the
neighbor who said, I'll lend you the thirteen thousand dollars
because you're gonna make a lot of money from this.
What area is this way? A neighbor just this is great,
he says, I want a thousand dollars a week interest.
Only three weeks later, I sold maybe a quarter of

(33:25):
the inventory and paid back all the money plus the
three thousand dollars interest. Wow. And what that giant failure
did was it taught me into a brand new business.
By the time I was twenty one years old, I
was the largest whole seller of closeout footwear in the world,
doing one hundred million dollars making ten million dollars a year.
I tell you the story because I saw death and
the size as a sixteen year old, I thought I

(33:45):
was going bankrupt, and then that got me into the
closeout business and I became the biggest close out seller
of footwear in the world. Were you boring into money?
I grew up in a very middle class family. I mean,
you know, the house that my parents bought that they
lived in my entire life was a forty two thousand
dollars house, So very middle class, but if you just
joined us. We are talking with co owner of the
seventy sixes, Michael Ruben, and now tell us about this

(34:07):
g SI Commerce. What company was that? Because you started
that company, tell us about that and how you did that. Yeah.
So after I nearly went bankrupt and I bought this
pretty big business buying and selling excess footwear. That led
me to basically I then had a couple of footwear
brands in my early twenties, and then the internet thing
came in nineteen ninety eight. I knew nothing about it,
and we were a public company with about a two

(34:28):
hundred million dollar value of the company. And there was
one person who was an analyst who actually followed our company.
He called me said, hey, Michael, what are you doing
about this Internet thing? So I did what any entrepreneur
would do. I started calling the big accounts from my
existing business. So I called but your model a Modell's,
and I called the sports authority. I called Dick Sporting Goods,
and I called all the big sporting goods retailers. I said,

(34:49):
what are you guys doing about this Internet thing? They said,
you know, we think it's a really good opportunity, but
we have no idea how to approach it Like you're young,
if you if you have some Internet solution, bring it
to me. And so I, basically, having no experience, I
basically started GSI Commerce and I went and I got
the five biggest sporting goods retailers to give me all
of their e commerce rights over long term deals. And

(35:11):
that's how we started GSI Commerce, which then over time
we started to work with lots of other retailers. So
it became the biggest infrastructure for big retailers to run
and big brands to run their e commerce business, and
it became a pretty big company. I sold it in
two thousand and eleven the eBay. It was a public company.
They bought up for two point four billion dollars. And
that's how you made your first initially huge huge money. Yeah. Absolutely.

(35:35):
Now let's talk about the seventy six is. How did
you become co owner of the seventy six is? How
did you do that? After you sold GSI. We sold
GSI to eBay in spring in two thousand and eleven,
and Josh Harrison Dave Blitzer put a deal together to
buy the team. At the same period of time. Coincidentally,
the owner of the Sixers. Ed Snyder was a terrific
individual who started the Flyers and was responsible for the Sixers.

(35:56):
He was my extra neighbor. So he sold the team
to Josh and Josh and David Blitzer and they were
looking for strategic partners that could, you know, really kind
of add some value to the business. And seventy six
is back and for me, my primary business then and
today is still Fanatics, which is the largest retail in
the world of life sports merchandise. So I've been in
business with the NBA from two thousand and you're really

(36:17):
from ninety nine from my old company. So I knew
David Stern and Adam Silver really well. And the truth,
the real story was, I called David Stern. I said, hey,
you know, I met Josh Harrison and David Blitzer. You
know I'm thinking about, you know, kind of doing this
with them. We're having this conversation, what do you think?
And David said to me, You're the only one I
know if there's ever an issue, I know to call you.
So I want you involved with this, and that's how

(36:40):
I got involved with the Sixers. So it was a
combination at Josh and David putting the deal together, and
David Stern told me he thought it was a good
idea for me to do it. We have more with
Michael Ruben when we come back. Co owner of the
Philly seventy six is so Don't Move is to Breakfast Club.
Good morning, dj Envy Angela Yee Schelomagne. The guy we
are the breakfast club we have co owner of the
seventy six is Michael Rubin? Into building? How did you
meet meet Meal? First of all, how did you meet me?

(37:02):
Established this place? Yeah? So it was we were at
the All Star Game maybe five years ago, and my
daughter at that point was a fan of Nikki and
he and Nikki were sitting next to us. Oh yeah,
I feel the same way. By the way, my fault.
Um So, my daughter was just talking to Nikki and me.
It's like, you know, in his way, he's like who

(37:23):
are you. I'm like, you know, I'm like or he's like,
oh you're the sixerst guy. No, no, no no no, And
I'm like, who are you? And he said and then
within a second what I loved about me from the
from the moment I met him. He just started peppering
me with business questions, like hey, if I want to
do this, how would you do do that? And if
I want to just do this in sports, and if
I wanted to put this deal together, and in a
lot of ways, he was a similar version of me

(37:45):
from a completely different environment. And so he started coming
coming to a lot of our games after we became friendly.
And one night maybe we'd hung out at the games
maybe ten times, and we were at halftime and I
remember this for the rest of my life. I said, um, hey,
you I'm going with friends to the Brogada afterward. You
want to come? He said, I'm not allowed. I'm like,
do you need permission from your mom? Is literally I

(38:07):
said you need permission from your mom? I was joking.
I was being a wise ass, like yeah, He's like, no,
I'm on probation. I'm like, how's this probation they work?
I'm not allowed to leave. I'll get arrested. And what
you do again he took from this is, you know,
going back five years ago, He's like, I was charged
reporting a gun. He's like, Michael, if a black person
points a gun at multiple cops, they're dead. Period. At
his story. And so, you know, we were let's say

(38:30):
we were becoming more and more friendly. You know, by
the time November six of twenty seventeen happened, he'd become
one of my five ten closest friend. So going back
to two thousand and seventeen, first he had these these
two really minor incidents, the pop in the wheelie and
the break up the fight in the airport, and so
I started to make my own phone calls to find
out is everything he's telling me true? Always hearing was

(38:52):
everyone loves him, but he's got this crazy judge. The
first thing I kept getting back he's done everything he's
been asked from a probation for fact of you know,
he's well liked. He's a good guy. Yeah, he's he
like a little bit on rap times sometimes, but this
is a good guy. You know, he's doing lots of
charitable things. I couldn't hear anything bad about him. So
now the judge sets a probation. Hearing he's like, Michael,

(39:13):
I'm really nervous about this, and like, do you want
me to come? He's like, you know what, I don't
want to put you out again, Like I you know,
but if you have, So I went down. I remember
that this was probably the moment I'll remember most of
mine's higher nothing more than this moment. So I go
in the courtroom and now it's supposed to I think, sorry,
either one or two o'clock. And like forty five minutes later,

(39:35):
the judges isn't there. So now I'm like, okay, what
is going on? Like, hold on, we had a time,
she's not here, what's going on? She comes in and
I watched the probation officer get up. And the probation
officer gets up and says, like, you know, we watched
Robert Williams developed. He's done everything we ask. We think
he's a model probation. We recommend no sentence. Then the
die gets up. District attorney from you know, Philadelphia, recommend

(39:56):
no sentence. Now we're like three hours into this thing,
and the judges literally berating the probation officer. She's screaming
to the probation officer, why that's what I'm seeing this
all firsthand? So like, you don't know what you're talking about.
I've been involved with this case for ten years. You
you know, you know, you've only been about for a
short period of time. You don't know what I've been through.
I'm like, oh, I want to do is say my
phone out and record it. So now we're three hours

(40:17):
into this thing. They take an intermission and we walked
to the bathroom and I said, like, like I was sorry,
I said to the lawyers right before. I'm like, I like,
I'm assuming everything's fine. Like everybody said, probation officer and
DA both recommendations. The lawyer said, here's the good news.
In the history of anything they knew, they've never heard
of someone where the judge goes against the probation officer
and the DA they were aligned. So we go to

(40:39):
the bathroom like, yo, bro, there's no problem, You're completely good,
Like there's nothing away to dinner. After it is and
and I walk back in, there's like five cops walk
in it. So she sits down. The first thing she says,
I'm sentencing you two to four years to stay prison.
And I literally I look at me, and he always
wants to be missed, a tough guy. His eyes trimed pink,
you know this, tears coming out of his eyes. I've
tears coming out of my eyes. And I looked him,

(40:59):
I'm like, I will not stop until you're out of prison.
And she's off the bench wow. And and by the way,
and jay Z basically called into this exactly the same thing,
like we're doing this together, Like I will not stop
until he's out of prison. Yep. But if you just
joined us, we're talking with Michael Rubin, co owner of
the seventy six, is can continue? Charlomagne, what was your
initial thought when when my initial thought was that this

(41:23):
was a completely crazy judge that my original thing was,
we started saying, Okay, let's look at this judge. So
I said, rightway this, there's something the matter with this judge.
This judge is wrong. So we started making a lot
of donations to people that were hiring investigators, and now
everything I thought was true. We found out that the
judge had over thirty individual lawsuits that she had sued

(41:46):
people individually, people that she was saying, I'm a judge,
you can't do this, or get out of the apartment
that I own, or I'm gonna you know, I'll have
your victim because I'm a judge. We actually found a
police officer, current police officer, who's doing construction for her,
and I'm surprised the story hasn't come out. She kept
changing what you wanted and Ultimately, the police officer said,
I'm no longer gonna like you keep changing what you want.

(42:06):
I'm not doing anymore, So she fires the cop from
doing doing the work. She then reports him for breaking
into her house and stealing his tools. She then tells
someone in her house that she hid the tools off site.
She then was so dumb she sent an email to
the person in writing saying, when you testify, here's what
I want you to say. And then we got the

(42:26):
computer and got all the information. Because the criminal justice
system is broken and she shouldn't be. And by the way,
I don't believe she will be in a year from now.
The behavior she's got away with any of us, including me,
would be imprisoner. I wish she would because if she did,
we could take a discovery from her, and that that
she's threatened to assumeing multiple times, But she doesn't have

(42:47):
the courage because she knows the second she sues me
that she's gonna have a hundred lawyers getting discovery from
Michael money. Yeah, but I would love her assuming that
would be we could be great on her. I would
I'd be excited about Is she still presiding of a
mixed case I'll fast forward than come back to this
in a second. So I didn't tell you. The greatest
to evolved Hershey Park. She goes to a legal convention
at Hershey Park and in the middle of the night

(43:09):
she wakes up and apparently there's someone's name tag had
fallen into the bed. It happened hundreds of times, according
to Hershey Park. She said that she had severe trauma
from the name tag it was in the bed, and
that she sued Hershey Park, but she's had PDST from whatever. Yeah,
I can't get happen. And literally, Hershey Park had never
been sued and it had happened hundreds of times. But
she said, basically, I'm a judge, and so if you

(43:30):
don't pay me, then I'm gonna sue you. And they
ended up settling it with her. And by the way,
and by the way, just last year she got in
a car accident and in her most recent lawsuit, which
she filled, after all, this guy, this stuff happen of meek,
which if I were hurry'd be like, I'm not following
a lawsuit when I know there's a bunch of people
coming after me, right, And she said, literally she couldn't
do her job. So it's like decide, like, you've either

(43:51):
had so much damage from this car act that you
can't do your job and she should have been off
the case, or you haven't had the damage and you
can do your job, but you can't you can't have
had tremendous mental damage and also you can do your
job at the same time. So originally I was so
totally focused on her improper behavior. Me kept saying to me,
I know what you saw is bothering you so much,
is driving you crazy. But I didn't point the gun.

(44:11):
I'm telling you, I didn't point the gun, he said.
He said to me one day, He's like, get the
original Gun's like he's like, he's like, I promise you,
Like you can prove idn't point the gun. So I
left there and I was like, oh, I'm like, we
got we gotta go back and interview all the original cops.
The first cop that got interviewed. So yeah, I was
one of the two wresting officers. He ever pointed the gun.
He was just trying to get rid of it and
run away. I'm like, can we get an aff of
David there? Like, yeah, we're joining an after David up

(44:33):
right now. Then we find out said the whole unit
was dirty, the arresting officers. This guy Reggie Graham was
so dirty he was listed as a cop too dirty
to testify. And that was like a secret document that
tell us the entire time was going through all these
these issues. Now it takes us another three months to
get him out, all right, We got more with The
co owner of the seventy six is Michael Rubin in

(44:54):
the buildings, So don't move as the breakfast club morning
this morning, everybody is dj Envy Angela Yee, Chelomagne the
guy we are the breakfast club. We have co owner
of the seventy sixes Michael Ruben into building. Charlomagne, how
did it change the way you've used systemic racism in
America completely? I was oblivious. I had no clue. And
it wasn't because I didn't care, like I have so
many I've got the most divers friends of anyone on

(45:16):
the planet. But it's just like I just didn't see it,
like I like I was in my own world. Until
it affects somebody really closely, you probably don't have any idea.
You didn't even realize that he couldn't travel out of state.
None of it made sense, But it didn't hit me
until being in that courtroom that day. You know why
you're rare. How did you get him out though, because
you never told how he finally got out. Well it

(45:36):
was a combination, Well, it was a combination of it
was proven that she's a banned and dirty judge. It
was proven that he didn't do it he was originally
charged of. Then, because we're doing all this work, the
Philadelphia Inquired give them credit, they discovered their original wrestling
officer was on a list it was too dirty and testified.
So now you're like, you're one off of David saying
he didn't commit the crime from the other origin, the
other wresting officer. And now meek meekes a wresting officer

(45:58):
is on a list that's been out for like ten years.
You should have been out the same thing. Here's the
craziest thing about this charges should have been dropped. Here's
the craziest thing of all. He's still on probation. It's
still not over. This guy's got five years left of probation.
That's the thing that literally it makes my head like
it makes yeah, I got I got a lot of questions,
like it's a lot of injustices that happened in this country,

(46:18):
like that could have shown you systemic racism exists. Why
Meek's case in particular, because I'm sure that you would
see that from black men and get killed at the
hands of the poles Because it wasn't let me, it's
it's completely different. It's one of your closest friends. If
you told me right now that your friend was sick
and need to do something, I send a check, because
that's what I've always did. I've been a check sender. Well,

(46:38):
but I got you. I got you. But all kids
side like when when when someone comes to me the problem,
it's generally like you send a check to help. When
you watch one of your closest friends get royally over
and you know he can't do anything about it, you
have no choice. What did you used to think when
you would hear about those cases on the news where
unarmed black man was killed at the hands of the police,

(47:00):
Like what did you what did you think or did
you think about it? I didn't think about it, that's true,
that's the understands. I didn't think about it. It It wasn't
I didn't think right, It's just like I'm in my
own world. Man, I'm building a multi billion dollar business,
like I'm involved with the six ers. I've got a
daughter who you know needs me less and less in
her mind these days it needs me, so you know,
like I'm focusing on my own world. She's like, you
got blinders out. I respect you, though. It's not the

(47:20):
person that doesn't know who the problem. It's the person
who knows but doesn't care. So it's like, now that
you know, you're using your privilege to combat a lot
of these prejudices you're seeing. Yep, if you just joined us,
we're talking with Michael Rubin, co owner of the seventy
six is continue Charlomagne? What kind of pushback do you
get because of your allegiance with me but also going
so hard because prison reform is big business, so a

(47:41):
lot of people might think you're trying to list with
their money. In the beginning, everyone was against what we were,
Like I so many people call me in the beginning
to say, like, don't get involved with this. It's gonna
be bad for your reputation. Like I don't care, right,
And what's bad about your reputation about fighting an unjust system.
I think people set up on people. I'm just saying
I think you're people. Yeah, but you're stepping on people's money. Probably.

(48:02):
Prison is a big business, and you're one of those
big business guys. It's got to be called behind the
thing's like, Mike, come on, I didn't get those calls, okay.
The cause that I did get was the people who
believed the media that you talked about is this not
a good guy? But I knew him so well. I
knew he was a guy to back where Kevin Hard story.
He said, you had a great Kevin Horn story. Well,
Kevin Hart. So so he comes to so we were
six ers from the playoffs. It's closed out night, We're

(48:22):
playing in the Miami Heats Game five, Kevin is in Philly.
Kevin says, hey, I want to go see me, and
like they spent a couple of hours together. So we're
finishing up and Max says, I'm never getting out of
this place. I said, you know, bro, maybe out to night.
It's like Michael stop saying that I'm never getting out
of here. I said, Bro, maybe you're gonna be at
our game tonight. He says that is never happening. So
now it's two o'clock. We leave, I go back to

(48:44):
my office. It's now four o'clock. People come running in
my office. The Supreme Court just ordered his release. I
can't even get touch with him because it's not like
I can call him, right, And so I called Kevin
Kevin Kens like it was all bad, it was all about.
But anyway, we go and what's become a legendary story.
Now I was just going to drive and go pick

(49:04):
him up. And he'd always said to me, like, I
keep having this dream you land in the helicopter and
you pick me up in prison. And as guy's like,
you got to pick him up in the helly, you
gotta pick up for the helly. Literally ten minutes later
with the prison and sure enough we pick him up.
We fly to the game. He goes in. He's literally
as everyone knows, I mean, this guy's in his prison clothes,
running down into you know, through the tunnel, into the

(49:25):
locker room, high five and everyone someone comes and shaves him,
brings up some clothes, and then we win, win the game,
and we're onto the next the Cavs stories and being
in prison when Miek is saying, I'm never getting out
of keV is like to have a good attitude the
whole thing as part of the the whole conversation. Now, before
you leave, you gotta tell us about reform. What initiatives
is reform A lines launching or planning to launch? Yeah,

(49:48):
so so reform. You know, obviously the idea came from
everything that we've talked about today and certainly beyond overneeded.
We're going to focus one hundred percent on probation and
prole And the reason is there's six seven million people
in the criminal justice system today. Four and a half
million are on probation for all. Okay, so it's two
thirds of the system, but it's the part of the
system that people really haven't focused on, and if you

(50:10):
think about it, it's what stalked Meek's entire life. And
so we want to really fix the probation and proll
laws and rules. So we're gonna go state by state
and work to get laws that makes sense and look,
like jay Z said at our press conference last week,
and like I've said one hundred times and Meek said,
there are a lot of people that belong in prison.
You know, you need the crime and the time to
kind of fit each other and to me, I think

(50:30):
of the four and a half million people in probation proll,
I think you could cut that number in half and
have communities equally saved. We want to get a million
people out of the criminal justice system in the next
five years. So I went out. We raised fifty million
bucks to start. That's probably as big as a commitment
as you could ever have. I said, hey, I'm writing
a big check into this. Then I then, you know,
Meek agreed right away. Then our next cause to jay
Z and Robert at the same same moment we started

(50:52):
talking about this, they said, yeah, we're in. So now
you're starting with jay Z, Robert Craft, Meek Mill, and
Michael Rubens. So now we said, okay, who the other
people that can really help us? And you know, we
ended up with incredible parties with Robert Smith, he's the
richest African American person in the world. Clara si who
just bought the Brooklyn Nets. We have Dan Loeb, wo's
one of the most successful hedge fund managers in the world.

(51:13):
Mike no regrets to Mike and Dan. What makes them
really special. They've spent a lot of energy on criminal
justice reforms. So we want to get their expertise into this.
So we've got fifty million dollars. We hired Van Jones
or CEO. He's dedicated his life to these issues, and
we couldn't be any more committed. I would love to
I mean, you probably can't answer this question because you're
not Robert Craft, but I would love to know how
Robert Kraft is pro Trump when a lot of the

(51:34):
policies Jeff Session is implemented are directly fighting against what
y'all a fighting for. Yeah, So here here's what I
can say to you. I may not always agree with Robert.
Robert may not always agree with me. He and Trump
may not always grand stuff. But what I can tell
you this is for this issue, for rewarm reform, it's
a bipartisan issue. I gotta say something Trump, and I'm
not a Trump guy at all, but Trump was a
huge advocate to help to get the First Step Act done,

(51:56):
which has been the biggest step forward in criminal justice,
you know, or I'm history, you know, kind of in
our generation. So I gotta tell you something. I think
Trump actually cares about this issue. How can regular people
get involved all of us? The first thing is to
educate people like The biggest thing is there's so many
people that were like me and totally no number six happened.
I had no clue to this issue. I was completely clueless,
and so I think being on your show talking about

(52:18):
this today is the biggest thing. We got to tell
the story about how many people are unfairly caught in
the criminal justice system, and you can always use this outlet. Well,
you know, I'm excited to be here. I I didn't
know a lot about the show before Meek tells me
how much he loves that. I saw you had Kevin
on recently. But I gotta tell you something. The biggest
thing we need to do is spread the word. We
gotta educate people that is the number one thing we
gotta do about now about my sick cousin. Anyway, we

(52:39):
appreciate you. Let you know we have this outlet anytime
you need it. So we're here for you and we're
here to help people as well. So we're gonna come
back and talk about those laws we need to get
a change, because that's one of the biggest things we
need to do, because it's gonna be state by state,
law by law, convincing people to help us in the
seventy six is good luck this season. My Nick Sintle
be here, so good luck to your seventy Thank you

(52:59):

(58:46):
he's thinking about sucking feet. Come get that damn donkey too. Oh.
This kid from South Carolina name Emmanuel Franklin. He needs
to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like
to have a word with him. I thought you want
to give it to Tory Lanes for that. Can we
ask people if they've got a suck feet? Two socks?
Is that a thing? I don't never eat somebody's those
socks are walking around the floors gross because if you

(59:08):
eat ass, you did say you eat that? You eat that?
A right? God? Donkey to day's up next? Come on
asses and on the floor. But it's so dirty. But
you never scrub the ground. What goodbye. I mean I
was born to donkey. It's the Donkey of the death.

(59:32):
Don't get a Day's Devil breakfast club, Yes, don't get
to day for Wednesday, January thirty. If goes to a
nineteen year old man and something to South Carolina name
of Manuel Franklin dropping a clues BOMs from my home state,
South Carolina. Eight h three eight six four eight for
three All day now, South Carolina, I need y'all to

(59:53):
simmer down. All right, this is the second donkey today
South Carolina has gotten in the last four or five days.
We're getting a little floorterish. Okay, now everybody relax, all right.
Emmanuel is nineteen years old, and we have to understand
that in this era, scamming is at an all time high.
Everybody's scamming and stealing, and you can't trust nobody. It's disgusting.
Everybody got to go fund in my account. Everybody got
a life threat, an emergency. Everybody trying to get you

(01:00:14):
to donate to their cash at because it's somebody's sick
that they know, are they sick? Like? You really don't
know who to trust out here, not your friends, not
your family, not the lady you buy Starbucks from every morning.
It's nasty in these creeks, all for the love of
the dollar. And Emmanuel is one of those scammers. Okay,
Emmanual needed money so bad that he decided the scam
the one person who would probably be there for him

(01:00:35):
no matter what. Who's that? Who is that in your life?
Your mother exactly? Your mom, your mother, your old earth,
the vagina from which you came. Let's go to the
w lt X nineteen CBS for the report. Police deputies
have arrested this man because they say he blackmailed his
own mother. He is nineteen year old Emmanuel Franklin. Now.
Deputies say on January twenty second, Franklin calls his mother

(01:00:58):
to believe that he would be killed by kidnappers if
she did not pay one hundred and thirty dollars by
putting money inside of mailbox. Franklin reportedly later told officers
that he made up this story to get one hundred
and thirty dollars from his mom. He is currently being
charged with blackmail one hundred and thirty dollars. When I
was nineteen, I could think of so many different things
that I could have done it get one hundred and

(01:01:19):
thirty dollars number one, get a job. Okay, I've worked
at tempt services, Taco bell I did tell the marketing.
I worked at warehouses, flower gardens. I knew how to
make a little change. Okay. I've collected cans to take
them to recycling bins. I've cut grass, and when all
else fails, you can always sell crack on a little weed.
I'm not in charging that. I'm simply saying it's a
lot of ways to make money that don't include stealing

(01:01:39):
or scamming from your own mother. Okay, Emanuel, this is
crackhead behavior. I don't know if you smoke crack, would
do any kind of narcotic, but this is definitely the
behavior of someone who likes to smoke fried cocaine. You know,
that's all crackheads fried cocaine. Black people love to fry things,
and that's how crack was invented. But that has nothing
to do with this story. Your mother is more than
likely the one person who loves you unconditionally on this planet.

(01:01:59):
No matter what you're going through as a man, your
mother will always be there for you. You can be
a stone cold killer and jail for shooting up a church,
and your mother will still pray for you, all right,
Still answer your calls from prison, Still come see your
lame ass, because that's just how a mother loves her child.
A mother's love for her child is like nothing else
in this world. It knows no law, no pity. It
dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands

(01:02:23):
in its path. That's aging for Christie, by the way,
you dropping the clues bombs for backing for Christie, and
for you to pray on that love, for you to
prey on your mother's love. And man, you're scressing your
mama out, raising her blood pressure, pretending to be kidnapped
and help from ransom for one hundred and thirty dollars.
I guarantee you if you would have simply asked your
mom for that money and had a legit reason for it,

(01:02:44):
she would have given it to you, even if she
didn't really have it to give. And you know your mama,
don't God that she's probably getting snap benefits every month
to feed your little ass, And now you're scamming her
out of a one hundred and thirty dollars money that
goes towards shelter to keep your little grown ass warm,
because you are a little grown ass, because you're nineteen. Now,
you're in Ja, charged with blackmail, and if you needed
one hundred and thirty dollars for whatever reason, then I

(01:03:04):
know you don't have no money for bail. I know
you don't have no money for a lawyer. So you're
just gonna be in there, stuck property of South Carolina,
crying your ass off every night. And the only person
who's gonna answer your phone calls and be there to
pray for you and encourage you to be strong in
spite of it's the same woman that you tried to
scam and steal from. My brothers. Always love your mother

(01:03:25):
because you will never get another. A man. You're Franklin, Franklin.
You're only nineteen, so you can still bounce back from this.
But in the meantime, give a man your Franklin, the
sweet Shunds and the hammertones. Please. Oh no, you are
do gee, oh the day, do gee oh the day.

(01:03:49):
Ye all right, thank you for that donkey today, Charlotte Maker.
Now we gotta stop getting scammed by people. I actually
tweeted somebody's go fund me yesterday thinking it was real
and then I went and looked at their page because
I felt bad. The whole family was homeless, and for
the past two years, all they've been doing their whole
page is them asking for money for a go fund me,

(01:04:12):
like two years from their own account. But I was like,
you seen it retweeted yeah, and then I unretweeted it.
So they got smartphones, but they can pay the smart
phone bill every month, yes, yeah, but it was like
for the past two years, the whole timeline with them
adding celebrities like please contribute to this gofund me please. Well,
I was like, having your smartphone, maybe you got your

(01:04:32):
little flip phone, and then you started taking that money
for your smartphone bill every month and putting it into
a little pot, just saying after two years, you have
a nice little something to do something with. Well, the
gofund me has zero dollars contributed. They looked zero dollars
for two years to get this fund. Be honest with you,
I need a little information about this one, A little

(01:04:53):
bit more information. They added you too, because I looked
to see everybody they all they did was hit up celebrities.
You only want to retweet it, huh. I fe bad?
Oh my goodness. I take a picture of the whole family,
you retweet between and putting no money, and they go fund.
I went to go look at it and then I
was like, let me look at this account. And then
I said, okay, they've been doing this for two years.
It's adding celebrities. They have nothing else on the timeline.

(01:05:13):
But that mmmm all right, Well thank you for that.
Donkey to day up. Next ask Yee eight hundred five
eight five one oh five one. If you need relationship
advice to any type of advice, call ye right now.
Share help, y'all, So call on now. It's the breakast Club.
God Morning, the Breakfast Club, p j Envy, Angela, Yee, Charlomagne,

(01:05:34):
the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. It's time to
ask yee. Hello. Who's this? Hey, mama, what's your question
for you? Um? Fine? Little Better is in California. He's
five stockie kind of this family. I think he's getting thanging.
I keep trying to talk to him about it, for
hes like he's just like distancing himself from me. I
just don't really know how to approach the situation. I

(01:05:55):
don't know. I have a little brother that ended up
on a shirt right I think, Um, what you need
to do is have you gone out there to see him,
to see what's going on. I haven't gone out there
to see him. My dad lives out there, but he
got remarried, he got an invite and like basically just
kind of left him to fend for himself. He was
living in his heart at one point, like didn't have

(01:06:16):
nowhere to live. And maybe you need to fly your
brother in to see you. I tried to ask him
if he wants to do that. He just keeps saying, like, no,
I got just producing thing I'm doing off here. I'm
not gang banging, I'm not throwing up gang signs, nothing
like that, and like he gets mad at me, and
I just I really just don't up my little brother
to end up on a T shirt. My husband just

(01:06:37):
had a very heart little brother last year because he
was doing the same thing I know. And it's so
hard because you can't control what he's doing when he's
not there. I think, no matter what, you got to
figure out because I couldn't imagine when my brother, you know,
I'd be concerned about him too. I think what you
need to do is fly him in, get him to
come see you. For whatever reason you have to make
up to get him to do that, so he can
spend some time there with you and let him know

(01:06:59):
how much you care and lay him know that he
could talk to you about anything, and that you're not
going to judge him, and that you're his sister, you
care about him, you love him. I'm not judging you
about whatever it is that you're doing. I just want
to talk to you. I want us to have these open,
honest conversations. Bring him to you, even if you have
to go get him right exactly, Okay, all right, all well,
good luck, Thank you so much. Ask ye eight, don't

(01:07:19):
jud five A five one oh five one. If you

Good morning morning. Everybody's DJ Envy Angela, Yee, Charlomagne, the
guy we are the Breakfast Club were in the middle
of ask ye, Hello, who's this LJ. What's your question
for ye? All right? I don't need like if I
just kind of I just helped me leading towards a

(01:07:42):
decision or not. The whole situation is I met my
girlfriend like summer twenty seventeen, and we were together for
like five or six months before I figured out or
she told me the hold entire situation with her children
were staying, you know, with her parents. So she moved
up her children back in with her and I had
come over a while a little bit, and she broke

(01:08:04):
down situation to me because I know she works out
of state, like the way where I live and where
we met. She doesn't work here, but she has a
house here, so she had her kids come stay and
asked me if I could, you know, be with her
children and watch her children while she's in and out
of time. Wow, and that's been going on for like

(01:08:24):
eight to nine months now. Now how do you feel
about that? I mean, how many kids is it? It's three?
Three kids? Do you see yourself marrying this woman? We're
never getting married. I was trying to get married a
couple of years ago. We didn't work out. I told
myself I'm never getting married again. And she didn't agree.
She doesn't want to get married. She the one I
have deep feelings for her, and you know, we have

(01:08:46):
us to have this relationship and over her kids is
pretty everything's pretty good. I love her, I really do.
It's just I don't know, because you know, I'm getting
slack from my family too, because I took like, I
only have a semester left before I graduate, and I
took this whole like, I haven't been back to school
and two semesters because I'm busy with work and watching

(01:09:09):
her kids. Whoa my family like really giving me a
lot of slight behind that they say I'm getting things
down with family anymore. And I was really family oriented.
So it's didn't kind of wed on me pretty heavy lately, Okay,
And how do you feel about it? Because if you
had no problem with it, we wouldn't be having this discussion.
But clearly it is something that's been weighing on you

(01:09:29):
because I don't understand why you're the only person that
can watch her kids for her. She does have family.
That's a big responsibility to put on. Her family lived
a little other states, and she went through this whole
thing with like her family is trying to take her
kids from her because they felt like she wasn't providing
them because she works so much. Yeah, and that's a lot,
because clearly they're kind of right, she does work a lot.

(01:09:51):
Now this responsibility has fallen on you, which is a
huge one, and it does seem a little selfish and
unfair to you. So, yeah, and she's kind of the kids. Yeah,
they want to be with their mom. Relationship with those kids,
and if I leave, I don't really know how that's
going to affect them, right, And at some point she's
going to have to figure out how to change her

(01:10:12):
life so that she could be more in her kid's life.
What is she doing to make those moves? You know,
as a doot, we go through college and stuff and
we start chasing our career and that's basically what she's
on right now. She's like changing her career, which is
a good career. I can't like, right, don't for that.
It's like if she wasn't making no money or nothing
like that, it'd be different. But it's like, well, you know,

(01:10:35):
kids are a priority. Doesn't make you feel differently like
she's because listen, I understand chasing your career, but when
you have kids, sometimes your priorities have to shift. I
mean they definitely do. She might have to do something
where she either moves or she's going to have to
figure out how she can simultaneously do both and make
sure that her kids are well cared for. But I
don't think that whole responsibility should fall on you, all right. Yeah,

(01:10:57):
And it's been like it hasn't been discussed, but you
need to discuss it. It's been brought up, and I
just feel like if it all boiled down to it,
I just see myself just leaving the whole situation and
carry I just want to say this, I don't want
you to make sacrifices in your life and your career
for somebody you don't even know you're gonna end up with.
Like you said, you're about to graduate from school. There's

(01:11:19):
things you want to do, and you're actually you're actually
making more of a sacrifice than she is because you're
not doing what you want to do so you can
watch her kids. So you might have to let her know, Look,
I'm not available at this time, this time, and this time,
you're gonna have to let me know. How are you
going to work this out so that you can be
there for your own kids? Stop saying yes every time,
and you guys have to have a serious discussion and
see if there's somewhere that she can rectify the situation

(01:11:40):
and if this is nothing that can be done, if
you don't want to make that sacrifice, you know, I
think those are huge decisions that you have to make.
But at least let her know. You can't just be
angry about it and not tell her. All right, true,
I understand. I just think the worst case scenario situation
is her like lous her job or having to move back,

(01:12:01):
you know, home with her parents or something like that.
I mean, maybe she needs to move closer to her job.
That I wouldn't want her children to have to go
through that because she moved she changed the location like
every three or four months. Yeah, I mean, look, when
you have kids, you got to adapt your life to
your kids. Period. Where's the dad? I don't know what
she told me his name. One time he denied her

(01:12:23):
youngest too. He said something like the oldest just only
the oldest is hers. But they were married for five years,
so I feel like he's just an at period. Right. Well, look,
it sounds like a messy situation. I just don't want
you to look back later and be like, damn, I
took care of this woman's kids. I didn't even take
care of my own life. Yeah, all right, Well you're
a good man, so you know, follow your heart if
this is the love of your life. You guys got

(01:12:45):
to work it out. Okay, all right, yes, thank you.

and Festival. Now. Andy King, who was a producer of
the Fire Festival, and he was also on Fire The
Greatest Party That Never Happened on Netflix. He has become

(01:16:21):
viral after that entire documentary. Here's what he said on
that documentary that made people be like, this guy really
cares about his job. You got good, Penis, what No,
that's not the clip. I don't know what that was. Now,
just to set it up. What are y'all doing here?
I don't know what that was. Charlemagne just yelled out. Confused.

(01:16:42):
Charlemagne just screamed out. But what happened was there was
some water stuck in customs. It was going to cost
one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars that they did
not have to get that water out of customs. And
here's what happened. And Penis will do that to you. Man.
This has to stop. What is going on. Everybody needs
to grow up. I'm sorry, I don't know what's going
what is happening here? You kinking Andy, please, you're kinky.

(01:17:06):
Really called and said, Andy, we need you to take
one big thing for the team. You're our wonderful gay
leader and we need you to go down. Will you
suck to fix this water problem? And I literally drove
home to a shower, I drank some mouthwash. I'm like,
oh my gosh, I'm really and I got into my
car to drive across the island to take one for

(01:17:28):
the team. I just want you to note that, out
of context this clip sounds like he's just trying to
unclogg a pipe. I said it was one hundred and
seventy five dollars. Get the stuff out of customs, the
water out of customs, yes, which they didn't have. So yeah, yeah, yeah,
we just out of context and sounds that he's going
to unclose. But out of context, you screaming certain things
out is weird. I don't even you know what. All right, Well,
here's what Andy King has to say. What's happened to

(01:17:49):
him since this documentary has aired. His penis is huge.
Who are you talking to? I mean, you just get
the spit stuff out? Well you know what forgetting? Yeah,
don't spit it, don't spit it out. I get taken
out of context enough on social media. I don't need
to get taken out of context on my own radio show.
He did the things that you say, I did not
say that in that way. Yes you did. Oh God,

(01:18:12):
are we gonna play what happened? Oh? I just don't
want to be necessarily known as the job king of
the world. I'm blown away with the response of the
documentary completely about I'm now a noun, a verb, and adjective.
When someone reached out last weekend and said you're trending,
and I'm like, I don't even know what trending means.

(01:18:32):
People are talking about you. I'm like, oh gosh. And
then yesterday someone's saying, yeah, you're a MEMI. I'm like,
what's a MEMI? They're like, no, Andy, it's a meme
and they're creating ads about you. Andy. What's wrong with
being known as the blow job king in the world?
He was, I'm sorry yet, Andy, what's wrong with being

(01:18:53):
known as the bja king of the world? Yeah, he
said he was blown away, Like thinking about it, you
can think about Krens. You made a career off being
known as a woman who gave good Fallacio, So what
is wrong when Andy being known as the BJ king
of the world. Well, first of all, we don't know
if he's good at it. That is true, Okay, Yeah,
you don't want to be king. You don't want to
get a crown if you do, you know, ain't anyway?
Moving on that. You just yelling out random things during

(01:19:17):
you yelling out random things during the rumor report. Realized
I didn't I didn't say nothing. Did you know we're
on camera? Yeah, a little devilish six penis. Get that
away from me. Besides, y'all are so immature my whole
rumor report. Oh oh all right, well thank you for
that rumor report. Ye, yes, thank you. Dropping a clues

(01:19:38):
box for ninety eight five to beat in sant Antonio.
That's okay, for ninety eight five to beat in San Antonio. Yes,
I don't know why y'all kept picked herself. You got

shout out? Oh my goodness, Oh, oh my goodness. I
thought we were filming this and sending it all right. Well,
happy early twenty fifth birthday to duj At penns state.

(01:20:00):
We want to let you know that your mama loves
you a lot in your mama. Sangodine works up here
with us at Revote and the Breakfast Club as well.
He's twenty five years old. Why Guad and Brad Drean.
Yes he is Jamaican, but we do not need y'all

(01:20:22):
we'll see you got some. Everybody else, blow blow blow
everybody else. Le's get to this morning. Everybody is dj
envy angela yee. Show him and the guy we are
the breakfast club that shout to Michael Rubin, the co
owner of the seventy six, is for joining us billion
there too. Yes, it's Luthan Mike Rubin man, good dude. Um.

(01:20:44):
I thought it'd be very interesting story. I thought that
you know him admitting that he had no idea what
was going on amongst other communities. It is a very
honest answer because you know, like dough Boys saiding boys
in the hood, they don't know, don't show it, don't
give a damn about what's going on in the hood.
But it's a it's about once you do know what
are you going to do? Absolutely? I mean I think
we all victims to that there's a lot of stuff

(01:21:05):
that goes on in other communities that we don't know about. Yes,
And like when Vic Mensa came up and talked about
what you know, the things that he seemed when he
was overseas, we just honestly didn't know. Yeah, are just
the love of Mannaise. We don't know why people love
Manaids said what, we don't know why a white people
love Manonnaids. You know what I'm saying, But they do.
You know, everything's about buttholes and mannais you everything. But
I understand that now not really caring as much about

(01:21:28):
things as we should until it affects you personally, like
knowing somebody who has multiple sclerosis. It wasn't something that
I even was aware of as much until one of
my friends was really struggling from it and we went
out to eat and it took her like literally twenty
minutes to walk from the car into the restaurant, and
I was like, Wow, this is something I really want
to get involved in, just because you see it affects
somebody that you care about directly. That's true. All right

(01:21:52):
when we come back. We got your positive note. Don't move.
It's a breakfast envy Angela yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
all the breakfast club now, Charlotaite. Yes. My positive note
of today is coming from this great book that I'm
reading right now called Digital Minimalism Choosing a Focused Life
in a Noisy World by cow Newport. It's not out
here that comes out of February fifth, but I was
reading this chapter last night called Spend Time Alone, and

(01:22:14):
he talks about this thing called solitude deprivation, which is
a state in which you spend close to zero time
alone with your own thoughts and free from input from
other minds. So I just want to tell everybody, man,
it's okay to be alone. It's okay to be in solitude.
Sometimes you need to be by yourself, you need to

(01:22:35):
disconnect from everything, and sometimes you find yourself in the
middle of nowhere. And sometimes in the middle of nowhere
is where you find yourself. Breakface Club you don't finish,
